Duelist X had run back to his alley way and changed into his street cloths and went off to sell the card he had won from the weakling at the tournament Mazera DeVill. It was a limited edition holofoil. Hhe strolled into a card shop and walked up to the counter.

"How much for this?" He asked the clerk.

"Hmmm about $50."

"Deal!"

As he walked out of the shop he noticed a poster.

"Hmmm looks like Duelist X will make his second appearance, but something will have to be done first." The boy muttered

A week later at the recreation center a lady sitting at her desk counting up the entry forms thought she had them all so she went to lock up, After she left a shadow zoomed by the desk and out the door. When she came back she found an extra one.

"Hmm must have missed this one."

A few days later at the competition every one was ready and it was almost X's turn. He heard the match end.

"Showtime." He said to himself as he pulled his cloak over his face.

"And now for the next challenger Chris here will face (pauses for a moment) Duelist X."

They pointed the spotlight at the place where he should have been, but he

wasn't there.

"Hey what's that?" pointed the announcer.

2 egg shaped balls rolled into the arena. There was an explosion and when the smoke cleared Duelist X was standing in the arena.

"What a fancy entrance," the announcer said

"This clown is going to be a pushover." Someone in the stands said. But X proved them wrong he fought his way to the top until it was him versus a boy named Zack for the rare cards

"Man I'm so hot I'll burn you up," said Zack

Zack 4000

Duelist X 4000

"I'll start this off by playing this card facedown and end my turn." X

"What no monsters? Fool! I summon Blazing Impatch (def 0 atk 1800) in attack mode and set 2 cards facedown and now Impatch will attack you." Zack

"Well it won't get through because I activate Negate Attack so now it's my turn (he drew) I do nothing and end my turn." X

"WHAT?" the announcer said "No monsters or spell or traps he's asking for a defeat."

"My turn and I summon the 7 Colored Fish (def 1100 atk 1800) and have them both attack you. I can't believe you got here, you're pathetic."

Zack 4000

Duelist X 400

"My turn (he draws and looks up at Zack). Looks like this duel is over." X

"What? You're crazy! I have all my life points and haven't dealt a single blow." Zack

"But I'm about to deal a fatal one, First I use Soul Exchange and use your fish as a tribute to summon Mobius The Frost Monarch cold never did mix well with hot(def 1000 atk 2400)."

At first Zack was afraid but then he relaxed remembering he had 2 facedown cards. As if X read his mind he said:

"And don't think your safe behind those cards because when I successfully summon Mobius he can destroy 2 spell or trap card on the field and I'm not finished there. I activate Tribute To The Doom. I discard a card from my hand and destroy your Impatch. Finally I equip Mobius with Horn of The Unicorn and Ax of Despair giving him a total 4100 attack points and leaving you wide open. Now Mobius will attack you."

Zack 0

Duelist X 400

The crowd lit up in cheering and X took out another egg shaped thing and threw it on the ground and smoke was everywhere through all the smoke everyone heard.

"So long seniors and senioras."

When the smoke cleared the announcer pointed out:

"Hey X is gone and the prize cards are gone too well I guess he took his reward and left well for tournament broadcasting this is Larry singing off."

As the crowds started to leave we zoom to one spectator in the crowd he turns around and it's the narrator guy from the last chapter.

"Well he is an impressive duelist like I said before, but as you will learn in chapters to come this life started problems for other people."
