Here's the next chapter and duel.
Out story begins on another section of Team World, a large grey circular two-story building. Like a lot of the duelist here, they are mostly kids and Teens, and here in Team World's care service, the duelist's parents or relatives can receive or send vid-phone calls to their kids and/or send them care packages. We now focus on a single teenage girl, or so would it seem. At a closer look, we see that the girl looked more robotic then human; she was silver white and had a metallic blue "top, Skirt," and "boots" if you will. And her "Hair" was in what looked like pigtails. This was the teenage robot know as Jenny (XJ9) Wakemen. She was on one of the vid-phones with a woman; she had white hair, red safety goggles and yellow lab coat. She was Jenny's creator/mother, Dr. Nora Wakemen.
Jenny: hi mom, it's Jenny.
Dr. Wakemen: (through vid-phone) hello there, XJ9 how's you little Duel tournament thing?
Jenny: it's going great mom. How's things back home?
Dr. Wakemen: oh, there have been some moments, but since you took care of Vexus back on Cluster Prime, things around here have been more quite.
Jenny: and the other moments…?
Dr. Wakemen: you sisters have managed to take care of the local monster attacks.
As she said that, a loud explosion was heard. Through the vid-phone, we see a robot that was some resemblance of Jenny, but she was bigger/bulkier then Jenny, and her "Cloths" were dark Blue. This was one of Jenny's younger sisters/prototypes, XJ8.
Dr. Wakemen: XJ8! Are you alright?
XJ8: (more robotic) I'm fine mother.
XJ8's "pigtails" transforms into rockets and she flies out of the hole she created.
Dr. Wakemen: well, anyway, I'm glad you called. You see, I've manage to create for you a new system for your defense mechanisms.
Jenny: is this gonna be like those up-graded eyes you created?
Dr. Wakemen: oh no, XJ9. This up-grade is software that works along with you hearing program.
Jenny: how does it work?
Dr. Wakemen: just connect you pin connector to the out port here and I'll explain while it downloads.
Jenny's right index finger opens up a small compartment, revealing a pin connector with a length wire. She then plugs it in the correct out-port and the corner on the screen says: "Now downloading…"
Dr. Wakemen: this new system shall allow you to sense radio waves throughout the air and power cords before they are sent to there proper destination.
Jenny: (sighs) English, mom?
Dr. Wakemen: let's see… (Thinks for a moment) well, you know that a message from say, a Walkie-talkie, starts from one Walkie-talkie; point "A" to the second, point "B", right?
Jenny: right…
Dr. Wakemen: well, with this new software, you'll be able to hear that message between points. You'll be able to hear the message from point "A" before it gets to point "B."
Jenny: oh… I get it. That sounds cool.
Dr. Wakemen: oh, I guess it does.
The corner on the vid-phone screed beeps and now says: "Download complete."
Jenny: ooh, it's done.
Dr. Wakemen: alright, XJ9. You should be able to activate it like you would your normal weapons; I trust you'll use this new system wisely.
Jenny: don't worry, mom. I'll only use it when I need to.
Dr. Wakemen: good, because I should warn you that there is a setting on that up-grade, and under no circumstances are you to put it up too high.
Jenny: what will happen if I do?
Dr. Wakemen: I'm not sure, I've still haven't gotten that part figured out yet. But that doesn't mean that you should test it yourself, it might damage your system!
Jenny: relax, mom, I'll make sure I won't turn it up too high.
Dr. Wakemen: good. Well, I suppose I'm holding you up with you little tournament, I better be going too. If you need any help, you'll know how to get me.
Jenny: of course, mom.
Dr. Wakemen: and XJ9?
Jenny: yeah?
Dr. Wakemen: say hello to the boys for me. Good luck and have fun, XJ9.
Jenny: (sighs) mom, when are you ever gonna get use to calling me "Jenny"?
Dr. Wakemen: I'm sorry honey; you know old habits die hard. Again, good luck XJ- I mean, Jenny.
The screen goes blank and Jenny hangs up by turning her screen off and starts to head back to her teammates. She was in this tournament with her regular friends: a red haired teenager named Brad and his little brother, Tucker, or "Tuck" as they sometimes called him. Along with those two, there was Sheldon; a teenage boy who, for a somewhat non-weird reason, has a crush on Jenny, oblivious to the fact that she was a robot and he was human. The three kids in question were waiting for her outside, their duel disk were the Orichalcos-like design and was the same colors as Jenny's body. As Jenny was on her way to their spot, Sheldon was making a card trade with another duelist: a young man with a light blue shirt of some sort of purple superhero.
Sheldon: (makes trade) pleasure doing business with you.
Person: anytime. Take care, Sheldon. (He leaves)
Brad: (sighs) I'm glad he's gone.
Tucker: yeah, he was really annoying. He was all "Ultralord this" and "Ultralord that." the guy needs help.
Sheldon: well, he may have been weird, be he had excellent taste in cards. (Sees Jenny coming, then in an enthusiastic tone) Jenny! There you are!
Jenny: (in an annoyed/board tone) hey there, Sheldon.
Brad: so? How's things back home?
Jenny: nothing to report. My sisters are handling the job well.
Just then, Jenny raises her left arm. It opens and folds into a duel disk, the same kind as her teammates. Her left arm then closes back.
Jenny: let's get going, I'm inching to duel!
They soon start walking along the streets, looking for a team to duel against. It was then that Tucker asked Jenny a question.
Tucker: so, anything else happened that Dr. Wakemen told you?
Jenny: well, mom did give me this cool gadget. I'm supposed to hear radio signals or something.
Just then, a knob appears on Jenny's right side of her head. It would be where her ear would be, but she has no ears.
Tucker: cool!
Brad: what's the knob for?
Jenny: that's the setting. Mom said that I shouldn't turn it up too high.
Tucker: why's that?
At the second he asked that question, he jumped high enough to reach the Knob and turn it. He turns it all the way to setting "11."
Jenny: hey! Get off, Tuck!
Jenny pushes him off, but the knob goes with him.
Jenny: (feels the area where the knob was) oh, thanks a lot, Tucker!
Tucker: well sor-ry! (Thinking) grouchy robot!
Jenny: I heard that!
Tucker: heard what?
Jenny: you just said that I was a grouchy robot.
Tucker: no I didn't. You must be getting a screw loose or something, because I didn't say anything.
Jenny: (confused) but, I could have sworn I heard…
Brad: (thinking) oh, boy. I Think tuck is right and Jenny really is going crazy. Maybe she has a computer virus or something.
Jenny: no I don't, I did a virus check this morning!
Brad: what? Jenny, what are you talking about?
Jenny: you said that I might have a computer virus.
Brad: no I didn't.
Jenny: GRRR. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?
Sheldon: (thinking) wow. Jenny's so cute when she's confused. (Sighs) and she seems to look more chromed then ever today.
Jenny: hey! Eye's on my face, Sheldon!
Sheldon: what?
Jenny: don't play dumb, I heard you check out my body!
Sheldon: no I didn't. I mean, sure I was thinking it, but I didn't-
Jenny: (interrupts) wait, what did you say?
Sheldon: that I was thinking it?
Jenny: (thinks for a moment) I wonder… (Grabs Brad) Brad, I need you to think of something!
Brad: like what?
Jenny: anything!
Brad: (thinking) man, Jenny's really hurting me!
Jenny: (lets go) sorry. (Realizes) Hey! I heard that! I can read minds!
Sheldon: how's that possible?
Jenny: this must be the effect of my hearing up-grade. Since the setting is so high up, I can read a person's thoughts. Does that make sense?
Tucker: not as much. But then again, we have seen weirder things.
Sheldon: Jenny, I don't like this. I've seen too many cartoons about mind reading to prove to me that it can get you into a lot of trouble. Maybe you should call Dr. Wakemen and tell her about this.
Jenny: no way, Sheldon. Mom would totaly disown me if she found out I disobeyed her. And besides, with mind-reading powers, I can tell what my enemies will do before they even do it. Not to mention help us with this tournament.
Brad: but isn't that cheating?
Tucker: well, rumors had it that Pegasus was able to read minds to win his duels.
Brad: yeah, and he lost an eye to prove it. I'm with Sheldon on this one; you should call your mom and get this fixed before we get into big trouble.
Sheldon: yeah, I'm sure she would understand if we tell her that it was an accident.
Jenny: (sighs) look, how about I keep the powers for a few hours and see what happens? If we get in trouble, then I'll call mom. Now let's find us a duel, already.
Jenny runs off, followed by tucker.
Tucker: wait for us, Jenny! (Runs to Jenny)
Brad: (to Sheldon) how long do you think until this gets her in trouble.
Sheldon: I'd say about 11 to 15 minutes.
Sheldon and Brad soon follow Jenny and Tucker, unknowing of what might happen to them.
Will this new ability get Jenny in a world of trouble? What Team will they duel against? You'll have to keep reading and reviewing to find out.
