Ulrich362: Well, the fated duel is upon us.
bopdog111: Cloud, and Sapphire are gonna compete against each other. What would that result in?
Ulrich362: Well we know what will happen if Cloud loses at least.
bopdog111: Would that count since Sapphire said it would happen if Allie loses?
Ulrich362: The conditions were for both Cloud and Allie to become her servants so... maybe? We'll find out, enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!
They were seeing Cloud's Duel Disk displayed his match is against Sapphire.
"Cloudy..." Allie started fearfully.
Cloud looked before smiling to her, "Wish me luck alright?"
She nodded before kissing him. "Good luck Cloudy."
Cloud walked down as Sapphire was there already ready as Cloud said to her, "I had once thought of us dueling before Sapphire. I never had the courage to ask you before since I felt outclassed."
"Well, once we're done with this you and that girl will be my servants." Sapphire told him. "So let's get the formality out of the way shall we?"
Cloud nodded as they readied themselves as Nico announced, "And now let's activate the Action Field, Clear World!"

"And to start off I activate Clear Wall." Sapphire started with a spell.

"Clear Wall... I need to get out a heavy hitter to deal damage." Cloud said to himself.
"I place 2 cards down, and end my turn." Sapphire ended her turn.

"When this card activates, I take a Dinomist from my Deck to my hand." Cloud said showing the card.
"I have a bad feeling." Tate frowned.
"And next up I activate Scale 8, Dinomist Rex, and Scale 3 Dinomist Spinos to set the Pendulum Scale!" Cloud added as the two appeared in the Scales.

"With this, I can welcome monsters that are level 4, and 7 to the Cloud Way!" Cloud smiled down to Sapphire.
Allie looked worried.
"And now I Pendulum Summon!" Cloud called, "Let's welcome the Mystical, Magicalibra!"

You can only use this effect of "Magicalibra" once per turn.

"Oh no, Cloudy!" Allie panicked.
"What's wrong Allie?" Yuya asked confused.
"At the end of the turn at least." Zuzu said at that.
Cloud then added, "Next, I'll use Magicalibra, and Pteran for some mystical tuning action!"
The two flew up turning to 4 rings, and stars.
(LV: 4 + 4 = 8)
"I Synchro Summon! Come on out, Level 8 White Aura Whale!" Cloud called as White Aura Whale appeared bellowing.

If this card you control is destroyed by an opponent's card (by battle or card effect) and sent to your GY: You can banish 1 other WATER monster from your GY; Special Summon this card, and if you do, it is treated as a Tuner.
"Wait, but isn't that a bad thing?" Tate asked.
"We'll see." Yuya answered.
"And as it's summoned all your monsters that are in attack mode are destroyed!" Cloud called as Aura Whale fired a blast at Phantom destroying it as Sapphire grunted.
"Wall's effect only works on battles." Skip said seeing this.
"Then... he won already?" Frederick asked.
"I activate, Attribute Chameleon!" Sapphire called.
Attribute Chameleon
Continuous Trap Card
Once during your opponent's turn, you can select 1 face-up monster your opponent controls and declare 1 Attribute. That monster's Attribute becomes the declared Attribute until the End Phase.
"Your Whale turns to Dark!" Sapphire called as Aura Whale got a black aura.
"Dark, that means Cloud can't attack." Yuya panicked.
"I place one card down, and end my turn." Cloud ended his turn, "And since I don't have a card in my hand Clear World's effect does nothing to me."
Allie frowned seeing that.
Cloud: 4000
Sapphire: 4000
Sapphire 2nd Turn:
"My turn draw!" Sapphire called drawing, "And to start off I summon Clear Rage Golem!"
At that a golem in a clear crystal appeared.

DEF: 1800
When this card is face-up card on the field, do not treat its Attribute as DARK. When this card makes a direct attack and inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, inflict 300 damage for each card in your opponent's hand.
"And now I activate Attribute Mastery!" Sapphire added at that.
Attribute Mastery
Equip Spell Card
Declare an Attribute. When the equipped monster attacks a monster of that Attribute, that monster is destroyed without applying damage calculation.
"So now if Golem attacks a monster with the same attribute as one I declare, it's destroyed without damage applying. My declare is obviously Water!" Sapphire smirked as Golem's crystal has a water aura.
Allie's eyes widened in horror.
"And now Rage Golem attack Aura Whale!" Sapphire called as Rage Golem fired an attack at the Synchro striking it, and destroying it as Cloud grabbed an Action Card.
"Oh, and Sapphire easily dispatched that Synchro of Cloud's!" Nico announced.
"It's your move now Cloudy." Sapphire grinned to her opponent.
"What?" Allie questioned hearing that. "What did she just say?"
Cloud 2nd Turn:
"Okay draw!" Cloud called drawing looking, "And I Pendulum Summon! Magicalibra, and Pteran come on back!"
At that the two appeared again.
"And then Double Cyclone!" Cloud called using a spell.
Double Cyclone
Quick-Play Spell Card
Target 1 Spell/Trap Card you control and 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; destroy them.
"I destroy a Spell or Trap on both our fields!" Cloud called shocking her as Attribute Chameleon, and Spinos shattered.
"Charge adds Spinos back to my hand. And now I activate the trap, Pendulum Switch!" Cloud added at that.
Pendulum Switch
Continuous Trap Card
You can target 1 card in your Pendulum Zone; Special Summon it. You can target 1 Pendulum Monster in your Monster Zone; place that Pendulum Monster in your Pendulum Zone. You can only use 1 "Pendulum Switch" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
"So now I either summon a monster from my Pendulum Zone to my field, or place a monster from my field to my Pendulum Zone!" Cloud called, "That allows me to activate Scale 5, Magicalibra!"
At that Magicalibra moved to the Pendulum Scale secure. Suddenly Allie smirked.
"And now I sacrifice Pteran to summon Spinos!" Cloud added as the monster appeared growling, "And then with Brachion sacrificed Spinos is allowed to attack directly this turn!"
"Wait did you say directly?" Sapphire asked in shock.
"Alright Spinos ignore Clear Rage Golem, and go after Sapphire!" Cloud called as Spinos charged as Sapphire grunted looking at her Action Card.
Spinos attacked uninterrupted as Sapphire grunted. (Sapphire: 1500) "Since I took damage, Clear Wall destroys itself. You'll pay for that Cloudy."
Her Continuous Spell shattered. The You Show students suddenly felt a chill. At that they slowly looked over at Allie. She looked murderous.
"I end my turn." Cloud ended his turn.
Cloud: 4000
Sapphire: 1500
Sapphire 3rd Turn:
"It's my turn!" Sapphire called drawing, "And to start I'll use Pot of Greed!"

"I summon back Phantom, and then I add a Clear card to my hand." Sapphire said adding a card while Phantom reappeared.
"And now Rage Golem attack Spinos!" Sapphire called as Rage Golem attacked destroying Spinos as Cloud grunted, "And now Phantom attack Cloudy directly!"
At that Phantom attacked as Cloud grunted. (Cloud: 2800)
The intent gets stronger as You Show gulps.
"I place a card down, and it's your move." Sapphire ended.
Cloud 3rd Turn:
"Okay draw!" Cloud called drawing before calling, "And then I activate the same spell you did! Pot of Greed!"
He drew twice looking over.
"And now I activate Pendulum of Souls!" Cloud called as a spell appeared.

You can remove 3 counters from this card; during your Main Phase this turn, you can conduct 1 Pendulum Summon of a monster(s) in addition to your Pendulum Summon. (You can only gain this effect once per turn.)
"And now the Scales both change!" Cloud called as the two glowed.
Magicalibra: (PS: 5 - 1 = 4)

"I activate the trap, Mask of Restrict!" Sapphire called at that.

You can Tribute 1 monster, or no monsters, to Normal Summon (but not Set) this card. The ATK of this card becomes the combined original ATK of the Tributed monsters. Neither player can Tribute cards.

"And now I activate the Action Spell, Clear Advantage!" Cloud called.
Clear Advantage
Action Spell Card
Target 1 monster on the field that has the lowest ATK: It gains ATK equal to the ATK of all monsters your opponent controls until the End Phase.
"And now Fog King gains both your monsters points!" Cloud called as his ace glowed.

"And now Fog King attack Clear Phantom!" Cloud called as Fog King charged at Phantom.
Sapphire growled, "I activate Clear Burgandy!"

If you would take battle damage: Halve that damage, then Special Summon 1 "Clear Token" (?/LV 1/Fiend/ATK 0/DEF 0) in Defense Position, and if you do end the Battle Phase.

"And then Attribute Burn!" Sapphire added.

"So now if Vice Dragon destroys a Water Attribute monster you take damage!" Sapphire smirked as Cloud jumped for an Action Card.
"This is bad." Frederick panicked.
"Vice Dragon end this duel!" Sapphire called as Vice Dragon charged a blast. (ATK: 0 + (2500 * 2) = 5000) "Clear Vice Stream!"
The dragon attacked destroying Spinos as Cloud cried out. (Cloud: 1300)
"Now you take damage!" Sapphire smirked as the meteors charged to them before charging at her as well, "Wait! What's going's on!"
The meteors struck them both crying out.
Cloud: 0000
Sapphire: 0000
DRAW!
"What the... what just happened?" Yuya asked.
Cloud had activated an Action Spell.
Damage Bound Reflect
Action Spell Card
When you would take effect damage: Inflict damage to both players equal to that damage.
"A... A tie?" Tate asked in shock.
Cloud got up walking to Sapphire, and offered a hand. She blinked, "What are you doing?"
"You did great in that match." Cloud smiled to her, "And I hope we be friends."
Sapphire stared at him in disbelief before turning away with a embarrassed blush as Allie ran over.
"Are you ok?" Allie asked Cloud.
"Yeah." Cloud answered with a smile to her.
Allie nodded before Cloud noticed a dangerous aura as she turned to Sapphire. "Never come anywhere near Cloudy again... am I clear?"
Sapphire only stood up before saying, "The match is a tie so we don't know who's advancing."
Allie glared at her before the three of them turned to Nico Smiley.
"Well this is a bit of a first." Nico admitted to them, "But I think I got a solution. Whoever grabs an Action Card in 5 seconds will advance."
Hearing that the two nodded.
"Alright 3... 2... 1... Go!" Nico called as the two ran off to grab an Action Card in seconds looking around as they reached for one.
They Cloud grasped it while Sapphire had grasped the hand holding the card.
"Not good." Yuya mentioned nervously.
"And Cloud is advancing forward!" Nico announced as the audience cheered while Cloud, and Sapphire stared at the hands in shock.
"Sapphire?" Cloud asked seeing that.
Sapphire turned red pulling her hand away, "Hey! I was only trying to grab the card! You know that!"
Cloud looked before asking her, "Well... We can be friends right?"
"Well... I..." Sapphire stammered not sure what to say, 'This kid is way different... I had expected him to yell, or not consider me a friend.'
Cloud mentioned for Allie to come over. He noticed Allie looked ready to murder Sapphire. Cloud took her shoulders, "Allie it's okay. Just take a breath."
Allie took a slow breath but still had a dangerous aura around her.
"It's okay. I'll treat you to a big massage once we get home." Cloud smiled to her.
"Yeah." Cloud smiled to her.
Sapphire watched as she looked on thinking, 'I was so wrong...' "Hey?"
"Hm?" Cloud looked over to her noticing she looked guilty.
"Seeing you like this... I'm really sorry about the way I treated you back then." Sapphire apologized looking down.
Hearing that Cloud's eyes widened. "It's... it's ok."
"No it's not. I've been so cruel to you." Sapphire said starting to tear up, "I shouldn't have said any of that. You did so much, and I didn't respect you."
Cloud at that embraced her, "It's really okay. I've gained a lot of good friends."
Seeing that Allie's eyes widened and unseen by both of them she ran out of the arena. Zuzu stopped from leaving, "Allie, you know Cloud wouldn't cheat on you. He was only comforting her."
"You don't know that." Allie told her with tears. "Cloudy loved her remember?"
"Yeah but he didn't ask her on a date." Zuzu pointed out, "When you were crying he hugged you remember? He's comforting Sapphire by his gentle nature."
Allie just shook her head. "He will... I just know it."
"Allie!" Cloud called to her walking over, "Allie? What's the matter?"
Allie just ignored him.
"She thinks your going out with Sapphire now." Zuzu told him.
Cloud blinked in shock, "What? No, I wouldn't do that."
SLAP!
Cloud looked shocked placing a hand on his cheek, "Allie? I wouldn't hurt your feelings you know that."
"You're a jerk, I hate you!" Allie yelled. "I never want to see you again!"
As she said that Allie started crying.
Zuzu realized that when Sapphire called Cloud, Cloudy, Allie started acting like that, "Allie..."
"Zuzu?" Cloud asked her.
Allie was on her knees crying.
"Sapphire was calling you Cloudy." Zuzu explained, "She acted so mad."
"That... Oh." Cloud said in shock looking to Allie before pulling her in a hug.
She was trembling.
"Wait, you are replacing Allie that quickly?" Frederick asked in shock.
"No, I wouldn't do that to her!" Cloud instantly answered.
"Sounds to me like you are, I mean... that looked a lot like flirting down there." Sora pointed out.
"I DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS DOING THAT!" Cloud shouted, "Besides I was only comforting Sapphire from her guilt!"
"Well, once Allie has her match you two can kiss and make up or whatever it is you two do." Sora suggested.
"Can you give me, and Allie a sec?" Cloud asked them.
"Sure." Zuzu nodded.
The two walked off sitting down outside the arena as Cloud got on his knees in front of her, "Allie..."
Allie's eyes widened. "Cloud?"
"Sorry, if I had hurt you, and your feelings." Cloud said to her looking guilty.
"It's fine." Allie told him looking away.
"No it's not." Cloud said shaking his head with tears brimming, "I was only comforting Sapphire, and had hurt your feelings."
"Just leave me alone Cloud. You're back to normal so you don't need me to help you anymore." Allie said quietly.
Cloud gave her a big kiss. Allie's eyes widened before she pushed him away. "Never speak to me again!"
"Allie, I still love you." Cloud said to her with tears.
"Cloudy I..." Allie started before starting to tremble as she embraced him and started sobbing.
Cloud hugged her back.
"What's happening to everybody?" she whispered.
"I don't know." Cloud told her, "I'm sorry Allie. Can you forgive me?"
Allie looked down before frowning. "Well... I don't know."
Cloud at that looked down, "I'm a bad boyfriend?"
"One condition." Allie said.
He looked to her at that. Allie had a small blush. "I want to give you a super big massage today. Ok?"
He nodded at that, "Okay. And also Sapphire asked me something, that I think you should answer."
Allie pouted. "What?"
"She asked if we can give her a massage sometime." Cloud answered.
Allie frowned. "But she was mean to you and..."
She looked down.
"Never mind... I'm going home."
Cloud hugged her tight.
"Let go... Sapphire gets you, there... there are other Clouds for me." Allie said looking away as Cloud recalled the picture of that other boy.
"No... Sapphire isn't my girlfriend." Cloud told her.
Allie just hugged him with tears
Ulrich362: Apologies for the short chapter... there's a bit of relationship trouble for Cloud and Allie that needs to be solved along with a rather... significant reveal coming very soon so... yeah.
bopdog111: More massage fluff is next from them.
Ulrich362: True, among other things. See you in the next chapter.
