bopdog111: Obelisk Force invasion is over with.
Ulrich362: True, but not without several casualties.
bopdog111: Yudo is one of them.
Ulrich362: Yeah, and his sister and girlfriend aren't taking it well.
bopdog111: But one person doesn't seem to care about it.
Ulrich362: Apparently not, let's see what happens. Enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!
Amy was still holding Carlita to try and comfort her despite having tears threatening to spill from her eyes at any moment. Carlita was still crying.
"You've all dueled well." Declan mentioned to all that was there.
"What's going on Declan?" Julia questioned. "That wasn't normal, those people were aiming to kill us or worse."
Sylvio grinned, "Perfect timing, Declan! I got rid of all the Fusion Dimension dweebs just like you wanted me to. I am qualified to join the elite, exclusive rank of the Lancers."
"The what-cers? Who're they?" Gong asked him confused.
Sylvio turned to him answering, "This Battle Royal was really a test. A test to see who can cut it as a Lancer."
"Wait... then you let big sis Zuzu get taken away?" Allie asked in horror.
"No. That was actually my own doing." a purple haired girl admitted to them.
"I am simply trying to save our world. Once I learned warriors from the Fusion Dimension were planning to infiltrate our home I needed a way to stand up to them without causing a panic. The Battle Royal was the perfect camouflage for the real conflict at hand. I sent the best duelists the Leo Institute had to offer to drive back the enemy. Turns out, their best wasn't good enough. But you and your friends, however, have what it takes." Declan explained it clear to them.
"So you used us?" Yuya asked offended.
"I simply used the resources available to me." Declan answered like it was obvious, "By repulsing the Fusion Warriors you proved your strength today. But defending our world is not good enough. We have to take the battle to the Fusion Dimension. And you and your fellow Lancers will lead the charge!"
"Half the people here are children." Shay told him.
"Yet you don't protest against Carlita fighting them do you?" Declan questioned him.
"Fight them?" Carlita asked before trembling.
"This isn't her fight, it never has been Declan." Shay told him.
"Then why is she with you in the first place?" Declan asked him.
"That doesn't matter." Amy said to them looking down, "We need to get Yudo back."
"Are we sure it's just us?" Tate asked. "Nobody else made it here?"
"Anyone else might have barricaded themselves." Declan told them.
"I... I'm not going." Carlita whispered fearfully.
"We have to get Yudo back Carlita." Amy said gently squeezing her hand, "I'll be with you.'
She could feel Carlita shaking in fear. Amy hugged her close.
"Don't send those kids, we'll make due with the rest of us." Shay told Declan. 'You're not like him... and you should never be Carlita.'
He was startled by Amy's glare, "She lost her boyfriend, and your discouraging her?"
Shay met her gaze. "She's an innocent little girl who shouldn't be forced into this kind of fight. None of you should."
"I chose to be in this battle. And me, and her have to get Yudo back. Your not who's making that decision." Amy told him with a glare.
Shay opened his mouth to argue only to see her eyes and frown. "You're right, but you can't make Carlita's decision for her."
"And I know she wants to get Yudo back but she's afraid. But I know that she wants too as much as I." Amy told him rubbing Carlita's back.
Shay sighed. "Let me talk with her at least. Like it or not, I know her better than you do."
Amy let Carlita go at that. With that two of them walked away from the main group. Declan then took this to continue, "If you don't want to lose any more friends, then it's best you join my Lancers."
"How skilled was this Yudo you all mentioned?" the purple haired girl asked.
"He can do all the summoning methods, and has skilled use in his Number Cards." Yuya told her, "Only Amy with her Arctic Deck is who we know he hasn't beaten."
"Not exactly, we know he lost to the Fusion Dimension... and it was probably him." she replied.
"Him?" Sylvio asked.
"Duel Academy's strongest, and most dangerous duelist." she answered. "Yuri."
"That... That might be who Yudo dueled against." Amy admitted before noticing Yuya, and started to shake.
"Huh?" Yuya asked in confusion. "What's wrong?"
"He... He has the same face as Yuya." Amy said fearfully.
"What?" Yuya asked in shock.
"And he also has a dragon." Amy admitted, "Yudo's Frozen Heart was instantly defeated by it."
"Then... what do we do?" Frederick asked nervously.
"We charge at Duel Academy." a voice said.
They turned to the voice. It was Henrietta who just arrived.
"You're..." Tate started in shock.
"As I said before you all will battle Duel Academy." Henrietta stated simply.
"Weren't you listening?" the purple haired girl questioned. "This Yudo was taken down already and if he's the best duelist you have there's no way you'll win."
"I said you will battle Duel Academy." Henrietta stated coldly, "If you have doubt then your more then welcome to leave the Lancers. Yudo is a casualty simple as that."
"... What?" Amy asked in shock.
"We have no need for people who would lose easily, or who can have doubt." Henrietta continued to the girl, "Yudo lost because he proved he was weak. We have no need for weak Duelists."
"Yudo's not weak." Amy mentioned angrily. "I'm done."
Hearing that they looked over to her as Yuya asked, "Riley?"
"I'm done letting you control me like a puppet. We're getting Yudo back and stopping Duel Academy, but I have something to do first." Amy stated coldly while glaring at Henrietta.
"Excuse me? Your my daughter so therefore your my responsibility Riley." Henrietta glared.
"My name is Amy Logan." Amy told her.
"No your name is Riley Akaba. Did that boy made you forget who sheltered you?" Henrietta questioned with a glare.
Amy glared back before closing her eyes. "Words won't change your mind, in that case... I challenge you to a duel Henrietta Akaba!"
"I beg your pardon?" Henrietta asked thinking she's joking.
"You heard me." Amy repeated activating her Duel Disk. "I challenge you to a duel."
Henrietta glared before saying, "Very well, I'll be happy to remind you of your place. I activate the Action Field, Alternate Reality!"
At that they appeared in a environment where colors are surging everywhere as they watched.
Alternate Reality
Action Field Spell
You can use Action Cards, but you can only have 1 Action Card in your hand.
"So... what are the terms?" Tate asked.
"I believe there aren't any." Declan said to them.
"Isn't to decide what happens to Ril... to Amy?" Allie asked him.
"That's between them." Declan answered simply.
Allie looked down but nodded.
"I'll remind you of your place Riley." Henrietta said as Amy, and her activated their Duel Disks.
"DUEL!"
(Dueling Theme: Same Old War by Our Last Night)
Amy: 4000
Henrietta: 4000
Let the duel begin!
Henrietta 1st Turn:
"I'll make the first move." Henrietta said to them, "I start by activating Convulsion of Nature!"
Convulsion of Nature
Continuous Spell Card
As long as this card remains face-up on the field, both players must turn their respective Decks upside down and proceed with the current Duel.
"As long as it's on the field we're required to flip our Decks upside down." Henrietta told them.
"Flip their decks upside down?" Yuya asked in confusion as Henrietta does so as they noticed the card on her Duel Disk is Mind Crush as Amy placed her Deck upside down.
"I place 2 cards down, and I'll summon Reese the Ice Mistress." Henrietta said as a woman appeared.
Reese the Ice Mistress

"An ice deck?" Allie asked in surprise.
"Just like Amy's." Yuya noted.
Henrietta then stated, "I end my turn."
Amy 1st Turn:
"My turn draw!" Amy called drawing looking.
"I activate, The Eye of Truth!" Henrietta called revealing a trap.
The Eye of Truth
Continuous Trap Card
Your opponent must keep their hand revealed. During each of your opponent's Standby Phases, if they have a Spell Card in their hand: They gain 1000 LP.
"As long as it's on the field, your hands are revealed." Henrietta stated to him.
"Wait, so now she knows everything Amy will do." Allie frowned.
"How can Amy come back from that?" Tate asked nervously.
Amy looked before showing her hand.
Rank-Up-Magic Arctic Storm, Arctic Girl, Blizzard Barricade, Arctic Thunderbird, a spell called Arctic Hypothesis, and a trap known as Arctic Defense.
"As you have a spell in your hand, your life points increase by 1000." Henrietta stated, "But I activate Bad Reaction to Simochi!"
Bad Reaction to Simochi
Continuous Trap Card
As long as this card remains face-up on the field, any effect of increasing your opponent's Life Points is changed to inflict the same amount of points in damage to your opponent's Life Points.
"When you gain life points you take damage instead." Henrietta stated as Amy grunted. (Amy: 3000)
"She's dangerous." Sylvio frowned.
"Whatever it's only a little damage." Amy stated simply, "I activate Arctic Hypothesis!"
Arctic Hypothesis
Normal Spell Card
If you control no monsters: Special Summon 1 "Arctic" monster from your hand. If you summon another "Arctic" monster this turn, you can treat that monster's level as the same level as the summoned monster's.
"With it, I can summon Arctic Girl!" Amy called as Arctic Girl appeared twirling her staff giggling.

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: All monsters on the field gain 500 ATK.

If this card is used as Xyz Material for a WATER Xyz Monster it gains this effect:
● Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card: Banish 1 monster from your opponent's GY, and if you do target 1 monster your opponent controls; it loses ATK equal to half the ATK of that monster.
"As it's summoned all monsters gain 500 points." Amy continued as Arctic Girl glowed on the field.
Arctic Girl: (ATK: 2000 + 500 = 2500)
Reese: (ATK: 800 + 500 = 1300)
"Then I summon Arctic Thunderbird!" Amy called as Thunderbird appeared cawing.
Arctic Thunderbird

ATK: 1500
DEF: 100
When this card is Normal Summoned while you control 1 other "Arctic" monster: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower "Arctic" monster from your GY, but negate it's effects. When an opponent's monster declares an attack while this card is in your GY: Banish this card from your GY, and if you do negate that attack, then that monster loses 500 ATK. You can only activate each effect of "Arctic Thunderbird" per turn.
"Then with this Hypothesis makes it's level the same as Girl's!" Amy called as Thunderbird glowed. (LV: 4 + 1 = 5)
"Two level five monsters." Yuya whispered.
"I now Overlay my two monsters!" Amy called as the two flew up.
"Queen of the Arctic Winds! Rejoice to your faithful subjects, and conjure a storm capable of lasting for your Kingdom's needs! Xyz Summon! Rank 5, Number 94: Crystalzero!"
At that one of the sister Numbers, Yudo gave her appeared readying her rapier.

(ORU: 2)
"Her other monster was stronger though." Frederick frowned.
"You didn't have that!" Henrietta called.
"Yudo must have given it to her." Yuya realized.
"It has a lot of feelings, and meaning to me, and shows how important he means to me, and Carlita." Amy told Henrietta.
Declan closed his eyes hearing that.
"I place down three cards, and end my turn." Amy ended her turn.
Amy: 2000
Henrietta: 4000
Henrietta 2nd Turn:
"My turn draw!" Henrietta called drawing Mind Crush as they see the next card is Dark Designator, "And I activate Pot of Greed."
Pot of Greed
Normal Spell Card
Draw 2 cards.
"With it, I draw 2 cards." Henrietta said drawing two cards as the next card is a spell known as White Veil.
"What's that?" Allie asked.
"A powerful equip spell." Declan said pulling out the stats of it showing it to her.
Allie's eyes widened reading it before she paused and frowned. "If she's so strong why isn't she helping?"
"She'll remain here to defend Standard." Declan answered simply.
"And now I set two cards, and I activate Spell Chronicle!" Henrietta called as a scroll parchment appeared.
Spell Chronicle
Continuous Spell Card
Send all cards in your hand to the Graveyard. Select and remove from play 5 Spell or Trap Cards from your Deck. Each time your opponent activates a Spell Card, place 1 Chronicle Counter on this card. You can remove 2 Chronicle Counters from this card to have your opponent select 1 of the cards removed from play with this card's effect, and add it to your hand. When this card is removed from the field, you take 500 damage for each card that is still removed from play due to this card's effect.
"When it activate, I have to send my hand to the graveyard. But as I don't have a hand that won't apply. So now, I banish 5 spells or traps from my Deck." Henrietta said banishing five cards before shuffling as they see Magician's Library is the next card she'll draw, "Each time you use a Spell, my Spell Chronicle gains a Counter. By removing two of them, you have to add one of the cards I banished."
"She wasn't exactly helping before." Tate frowned.
"You cannot defeat me Riley. I know whatever strategies will use, and will use it against you." Henrietta told her, "And I activate, Dark Designator!"
Dark Designator
Normal Spell Card
Declare 1 Monster Card name. If the declared card is in your opponent's Deck, add 1 of that card to your opponent's hand.
"I pick a monster, and if that card is in your Deck you have to add it to your hand." Henrietta said turning to Amy, "And the card, I declare Riley is Arctic Pegasus Rider."
Amy frowned before searching her Deck showing the Ritual Monster before shuffling her Deck.
"Riley should have known better than to challenge the chairwoman of the Leo Corporation." Sylvio pointed out. "This duel was over before it began."
"I end my turn by switching Reese to defense." Henrietta said as her monster switched mode.
Amy 2nd Turn:
Amy drew as she shows her hand now has Pegasus Rider, and had drawn Arctic Winds before grunting from the Spell combo. (Amy: 2000)
The purple haired girl frowned at that before turning and walking off. Declan placed a hand on on her shoulder, "Don't leave just yet Celina. Amy's about to show her true skill."
"Believe me Declan, I've seen more than enough to know this is a waste of time. Your Lancers won't win against Duel Academy." she told him. "You know that out of everyone here I know that better than anyone."
"Amy is equal." Declan revealed, "She defeated me before."
Celina's eyes widened slightly as she turned back to the duel. Amy then said to Henrietta, "Since you can't use Mind Crush since you don't got a hand, I can do this! I activate the spell, Rank-Up-Magic Arctic Storm!"
Rank-Up-Magic Arctic Storm
Quick-Play Spell Card
Discard 1 card: Target 1 WATER Xyz Monster you control, except a "Number C" monster; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Number C" with the same number in its name as that target, 1 "Arctic", or 1 "Number" monster that is 1 Rank higher than that monster you control, by using it as the Xyz Material, and if you do attach this card to the Summoned monster as Xyz Material. (This Special Summon is treated as an Xyz Summon. Xyz Materials attached to it also become Xyz Materials on the Summoned monster.) The Summoned monster is treated as a "Arctic" monster. You can banish this card from your GY: Attach one card from your Hand to 1 WATER Xyz Monster you control as Xyz Material.
"I discard Arctic Rider to rank-up Crystalzero!" Amy called as the Number flew up.
"Queen of the Frost Kingdom! Raise from your throne to harness the power of the frosty ice winds, and aid your brother to protect your kingdom! Rank-Up Xyz Change! Rank 6, Chaos Number 94: Crystalfinity!"
At that a 94 appeared before what appeared was several cubes before they formed into an ice sculpture of a queen holding a lance twirling her around ready.

● Your opponent cannot target this card with card effects.
(ORU: 3)
"Wait, but doesn't that mean Spell Chronicle gets one of those counters?" Frederick asked.
Spell Chronicle: (Chronicle Counter: 1)
"Your only dooming yourself Riley." Henrietta stated simply.
"Oh really?" Amy questioned making Henrietta blink, "I'll make due by attacking! Reese can only defend against monsters with levels! Crystalfinity doesn't have a level!"
Crystalfinity destroyed Reese as Henrietta grunted. (Henrietta: 3000)
"Hold on, something's wrong. Wasn't that monster in defense mode?" Tate asked. "And if it was piercing damage shouldn't it have done more than just 1000 points?"
"It's because of this." Amy said showing she used a trap.
Arctic Defense

Activate only during a turn you took effect damage: Note that damage. Any battle damage you take less then that damage becomes zero. If a "Arctic" monster, or a "Number" monster you control, destroys an opponent's monster by battle inflict that amount of damage to your opponent. You can only activate this effect once per turn.
"That helps but it won't be enough." Celina frowned.
"I end my turn." Amy told her with a set card.

Henrietta: 3000
Henrietta 3rd Turn:
"My turn draw." Henrietta said drawing, "And I activate Magician's Library."
Magician's Library
Normal Spell Card
Add 1 Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.
"The power of this card allows me to add any Spell Card to my hand." Henrietta told Amy.
"If she adds the card I think she's adding it's all over." Tate mentioned nervously.
Henrietta fished the card she's looking for, Card of Sanctity.
"Huh, not Tremendous Fire?" Tate asked.
"Mother's Deck only has one burn method." Declan told him.
Tate nodded at that.
"And I activate Card of Sanctity." Henrietta told Amy.
Card of Sanctity
Normal Spell Card

Amy nodded as they both drew cards til 6 each.
"Eye of Truth gets me to view your hand." Henrietta told her.
Amy shows her hand that has Polymerization, Arctic Ritual, Water Hazard, Xyz Splash Revival, Arctic Knight, and Arctic Falcon.
"Not good, more spell cards." Frederick frowned.
Henrietta then added, "I place 1 monster in defense, and set 1 card. Riley, you cannot defeat me."
Amy 3rd Turn:
"I'll tell you right now..." Amy glared.
"She takes mores damage from those trap cards." Allie frowned.
"My name is not Riley Akaba... It's Amy Logan!" Amy called drawing showing she had drawn Arctic Froststorm. (Amy: 1000)
"This is her last chance." Yuya frowned.
"I activate Arctic Froststorm!" Amy called.
Arctic Froststorm
Normal Spell Card
Discard 2 Spell Cards from your hand: Destroy an equal number of Spell/Trap Cards on the field. You can banish this card from your GY: Place 1 "Rank-Up-Magic" Spell Card from your Deck to the top of your Deck.
"By discarding Arctic Ritual, and Water Hazard, I destroy Bad Reaction, and Spell Chronicle!" Amy called shocking Henrietta as the two shattered, "And Spell Chronicle deals you 500 points for each banished card by it's effect! That's 2500!"
Henrietta was zapped crying out. (Henrietta: 0500)
Celina's eyes widened in shock.
"How dare you..." Henrietta glowed.
"Battle! Crystalfinity attacks!" Amy called as Crystalfinity attacked showing it was a golem.
Gogogo Golem

DEF: 1500
Once per turn, this Defense Position card cannot be destroyed by battle.
Golem wasn't destroyed by the attack.
"Oh no!" Allie panicked.
"It can only protect itself one time in defense." Declan said seeing that.
"Once is enough." Yuya frowned.
"With Bad Reaction gone it won't finish her off." Gong told them.
"Unless she has a monster waiting in her deck." Celina pointed out.
"I'll end my turn." Amy ended.
Amy: 1000
Henrietta: 0500
Henrietta 4th Turn:
"How dare you... You are gonna regret that." Henrietta growled drawing, "I sacrifice Golem to summon Great Maju Garzett!"
Golem vanished to show a huge monster.

The ATK of this card becomes twice the original ATK of 1 monster that you Tributed for the Tribute Summon of this card.
"No attack points?" Frederick questioned.
"This cards power is twice then my Golem's." Henrietta explained.
Garzett: (ATK: 0 + 1800 * 2 = 3600)
"It's so strong." Allie panicked.
"And now attack!" Henrietta called as Garzett charged in attacking Crystalfinity who was destroyed as Amy grunted. (Amy: 0300)
Yuya frowned seeing that.
"I end my turn." Henrietta said to Amy, "Do yourself a favor, and learn that your defeated Riley."
Amy grunted raising up, "Normally I would... But I activate Arctic Froststorm's effect in the graveyard!"
"From the graveyard?" Celina asked in shock.
"By banishing I can place Rank-Up-Magic - The Seventh One at the top of my deck!" Amy explained placing the card on top.
Amy 4th Turn:
(Amy: 1300)
"And you know what that means! I draw!" Amy called drawing, "And I activate Seventh One!"

Henrietta's eyes widened in shock.
"Then Seventh One overlays Ragnazero!" Amy called as Carlita, and Shay walked back as Ragnazero flew back in, "Princess of the Coldest Winters! Blow your Breath of the Coldest Wastelands, and then call forth your power from the ice! Rank-Up-Xyz Change! Rank 5, Chaos Number 103: Ranafinity!"
At that Ragnafinity appeared twirling her scythe ready.

"Number 103: Ragnazero" must be in your Graveyard to activate and to resolve this effect.
(ORU: 1)
"It's not strong enough." Tate said at that.
"Yes it is." Declan noted.
"And now I activate Ragnafinity's special ability!" Amy called as Ragnafinity took an Overlay Unit (ORU: 1 - 0), "By using an Overlay Unit a monster that has different attack points is banished! And you lose points equal to that change! Ice Meltdown!"
Ragnafinity tossed her scythe at Garzett slashing it, and shattering it as Henrietta cried out.
Amy: 1300
Henrietta: 0000
Amy wins the duel!
"You beat her?"
Hearing that Amy turned. Carlita and Shay had walked back and Shay looked hesitant while Carlita looked scared but determined.
"Yeah." Amy nodded to Carlita.
"Then... when are we going?" Carlita asked Declan.
"Tomorrow." Declan answered before turning to Amy, "Amy if it interests you the Lancers will be under your command."
Amy's eyes widened before she turned to the other people there. Celina, Sylvio, Yuya, Allie, Frederick, Tate, Julia, Kit, a red haired man, a blue robed ninja, and Shay looked at her with them saying they'll be okay with what she chooses.
Amy nodded. "Alright, then I'll do it."
Carlita smiled. "You'll do great."
Earlier...
Shay, and Carlita walked out somewhere.
"Carlita... you don't have to fight if you don't want to. You aren't part of the resistance back home and you don't have to be a Lancer here." Shay told her gently. "We'll rescue Lulu, and find a way to bring Yuto and Yudo back for you."
"But Shay..." Carlita said to him looking down, "He brought a lot of hope, and feelings to me..."
"I know, but..." Shay started before frowning. "Carlita... our home is in shambles. Only a few people are able to fight back against them... and you know he would rather you be safe and stay out of this."
Carlita didn't say anything but pulled out two cards. Yudo's Numbers that he given her looking at them as a tear dropped to Masquerade.
Shay's eyes widened. "Carlita why do you have Numbers? Don't you know how dangerous they are, he told you never to use them!"
"...Their Yudo's." Carlita told him with tears, "He gave them to me just before he vanished."
Shay frowned before closing his eyes. "You're not a fighter... even when you tried to duel him before you couldn't go through with it. The Fusion Dimension won't hesitate like Yudo did."
"He lost on purpose." Carlita reminded him before turning back to the two, "Shay... I'll battle Duel Academy."
Hearing that Shay sighed. "... It's not my place to stop you Carlita. I don't like this, but alright."
He took her hand at that.
"Some of the Lancers use Fusion Summoning... if it comes to it, he may fight against us you know."
Carlita nodded looking at the two Numbers before placing them in her Deck Box as they walked back. They arrived just in time to see Amy summon Ragnafinity and win the duel.
Carlita blinked asking, "You beat her?"
Meanwhile...
"You found him unconscious?" a purple robed man with a metallic plate questioned as Yuri was being examined by doctors.
"Yes Professor, he suddenly appeared in the middle of the hall and he was out cold." answered one of the students who found him. "Though... he won all his duels in the Standard Dimension... Dennis confirmed it."
"Something must've happened." the Professor mentioned turning back, "And one of you said he was holding cards in his hand when he appeared?"
"Yes Professor." another of the students answered.
"Do any of you have them right now?" the Professor asked.
"No... Dennis took them to Yuri's room." the first student answered.
"Bring them here immediately." the Professor ordered.
"Yes Professor." the students said before running off to get the cards.
The Professor turned back to Yuri being checked for a heartbeat as he thought, 'Yuri... What happened? You didn't lose so Standard might've done something incredibly smart, or incredibly stupid.'
Ulrich362: Well... the Lancers have been officially formed.
bopdog111: Both Amy, and Carlita have huge desires to get Yudo back.
Ulrich362: True, but can either of them match Yuri in a duel?
bopdog111: Not at their current level we'll give you that.
Ulrich362: Well, the next chapter should be the end of the Standard Arc and the start of the next arc. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
