bopdog111: We're back at the Friendship Cup.

Ulrich362: Yup, Rin took down a dangerous opponent with her Windwitch monsters but Carlita wasn't able to handle dueling Celina.

bopdog111: Despite Amy telling her that she has new cards even though she doesn't like them.

Ulrich362: I think it had more to do with dueling a Fusion Duelist after being reminded of Yudo. So now the next matches of the Friendship Cup?

bopdog111: Yes indeed.

Ulrich362: Fair enough, enjoy the chapter.

Diclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!


"Carlita..." Zuzu trailed off.

"Well that was a bit unfortunate, but let's keep things moving duel fans." Melissa announced as the images appeared again.

They turned to see who's next. The images slowly faded before revealing Yuya was up against Shay.

"Yuya better be careful... Shay's a tough duelist." Lulu told Zuzu from her Duel Disk.

"So's Yuya." Zuzu replied before frowning only for her eyes to widen. "Wait a second..."

She sent a message as Yuya and Shay rode onto the track.

"Celina, what happened in that duel?"

"Zuzu?" Celina replied at this, "Your okay?"

"That's not important right now, what happened in your duel with Carlita?" Zuzu asked.

"Well she seemed out of determination when I took my turn." Celina admitted to her.

"... Ok." Zuzu nodded uncertainly before turning to the duel.

"Good luck." Yuya told Shay.

Shay nodded calmly. Crossover Acceleration activated at this.

Let the duel begin!


"Yuya... do you want the first turn?" Shay asked him.

"Huh?" Yuya asked hearing that.

"Do you want to take the first turn?" Shay repeated.

A second one appeared at this.

"Now I'll Overlay my two Vanishing Lanius." Shay called as the monsters entered the Overlay Network. "Avian hunter of the afterlife, seek the truth with your dark eyes, and grasp glory with your sharp talons! Xyz Summon! Take flight! Rank 4! Raidraptor - Force Strix!"

(ORU: 2)

'100 attack points?' Yuya thought seeing that.

"Force Strix has 2000 defense points, but that isn't quite enough so I'll use one Overlay Unit to add Raidraptor - Fuzzy Lanius to my hand and since I control another Raidraptor I can summon it in defense mode." Shay continued.

"That ends my turn."

Gumgumouton: (PS: 1 + 1 = 2)

Odd-Eyes: (PS: 4 + 1 = 5)

"So now, I can summon Level 3, and 4 monsters all at the same time!" Yuya called at this.

'What's he planning?' Shay questioned.

"Swing, pendulum of souls! Draw an arc of light across the ether! Pendulum Summon! Appear now! My monsters!" Yuya called as two monsters shot out.

"Come out, Performapal Celestial Magician!"

A black magician rose up.

Celestial Magician: (ATK: 1500 + 300 = 1800)

"Your monsters aren't powerful enough to destroy mine Yuya." Shay told him.

"I activate Celestial Magician's ability but we will get to it in a bit." Yuya said as Celestial Magician glowed, "And now I place 1 card down, and Tribute these two to Tribute Summon!"

The two vanished as Yuya smiled, "I summon Performapal Laugh Maker!"

You can only use 1 monster effect of "Performapal Laugh Maker" per turn, and only once that turn.


Laugh Maker: (ATK: 2500 + 300 = 2800)

Shay frowned seeing the monster.

"And now from Laugh Maker's ability since you have a monster who's attack points are higher Laugh Maker gains 1000 points!" Yuya grinned as Laugh Maker smiled.

Laugh Maker: (ATK: 2800 + 1000 = 3800)

"He's using Shay's ability against him!" Lulu cried in shock.

"And now Laugh Maker send Force Strix away with Laughing Spark!" Yuya smiled as Laugh Maker fired a blast.

The blast hit creating a smokescreen before Shay raced out of it revealing Force Strix survived.

"Oh my! What happened?" Melissa asked seeing that.

"My trap card Raidraptor - Readiness happened." Shay answered. "Thanks to this card you can't destroy my Raidraptors in battle this turn Yuya."


Raidraptor - Readiness

Normal Trap Card

This turn, "Raidraptor" monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle. If you have a "Raidraptor" monster in your Graveyard: You can banish this card from your Graveyard; you take no damage this turn.


"I'll end my turn." Yuya said to him.

Laugh Maker: (ATK: 3800 - 1000 = 2800)

"And at this moment Celestial Magician's ability adds a Pendulum Monster to my hand." Yuya said adding a card.


Yuya: 4000

Shay: 4000


Shay 2nd Turn:

Shay drew his card before closing his eyes. "Yuya, I have some bad news for you."

Yuya hearing that looked.

"I send Rank-Up-Magic Raid Force from my hand to the graveyard and Overlay Force Strix!" Shay called. "With this one monster I rebuild the Overlay Network, I Xyz Summon Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon - Air Raid!"

If this card in your possession is destroyed by an opponent's card and sent to your GY: You can Special Summon 1 "Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon" from your Extra Deck, and if you do, attach this card to it as material.


(ORU: 2)

"Huh?" Yuya asked surprised, "I never seen Yudo, or Amy ranking up like that!"

"That's because this is a special monster that can be summoned that way Yuya." Shay told him. "Then since I Xyz Summoned Revolution Falcon - Air Raid I can destroy Laugh Maker and deal damage equal to his attack points."

Hearing that Yuya reached grabbing an Action Card looking, 'Wonder Chance...'

Laugh Maker shattered as Yuya grunted. (Yuya: 1200)

"Now Revolution Falcon - Air Raid attack Yuya directly!" Shay called.

It charged as Yuya called, "I activate Performapal Call!"


Performapal Call

When an opponent's monster declares a direct attack: Target that attacking monster; negate the attack, and if you do, add up to 2 "Performapal" monsters from your Deck to your hand, whose total DEF is less than or equal to the ATK of the targeted monster. Until the end of your next turn after this card resolves, you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck.


"When you attack me directly it's negated!" Yuya called as Airraid stopped, "Then I take 2 Performapals to my hand who's attack points are equal or less then your monster's defense points!"

Shay frowned. "Your turn."

Yuya 2nd Turn:

"It's my turn!" Yuya called drawing, "And I use Pendulum Soul's effect!"

Gumgumouton: (PS: 2 - 1 = 1)

Odd-Eyes: (PS: 5 + 1 = 6)

"Two through five now." Shay noted.

"And now I Pendulum Summon!" Yuya called as the two appeared, "Then a second counter's placed!"

Soul Pendulum: (Counter: 2)

Ballad: (ATK: 500 + (300 * 2) = 1200)

Celestial Magician: (ATK: 1500 + (300 * 2) = 2100)

Shay frowned.

"And now Ballad attack Airraid!" Yuya called as Ballad attacks Airraid.

"What?" Shay questioned.

The attack was redirected as Yuya called, "Now both Odd-Eyes, and Gumgumouton's Pendulum Abilities go to effect! Ballad isn't destroyed nor, do I take damage!"

"Then what was the point of attacking?" Shay questioned.

Ballad then let out a aroma which flowed around Airraid. (ATK: 2000 - 1200 = 800)

"What?" Shay questioned seeing that. "What just happened?"

"Ballad's ability lowers your monsters attack points equal to a Performapal when it attacks!" Yuya smiled answering that.

Shay frowned. "Then with your current field my monsters will get weaker each time they battle and you won't lose any life points."

"Celestial Magician attack Airraid!" Yuya called as his magician charged in.

The attack hit destroying Shay's monster before they heard a screech.

(ORU: 1)

"Now what?" Yuya asked seeing that.

"When Air Raid is destroyed I can summon Revolution Falcon in its place and attack Air Raid as an Overlay Unit." Shay answered. "Though I do have to take the damage from your attack."

(Shay: 2700)

"One Xyz Monster after another." Yuya said before saying, "I end my turn."


Yuya: 1200

Shay: 2700


Shay 3rd Turn:

Shay drew his card. "You're good Yuya but not good enough, I use one Overlay Unit to allow Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon to attack all your monsters, and since Pendulum Summoning counts as a Special Summon when Revolution Falcon battles your monsters they lose all their attack and defense points."

Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon: (ORU: 1 - 1 = 0)

"But due to Odd-Eyes' Pendulum Ability you can't damage me at all!" Yuya told him.

"Take a closer look Yuya, Odd-Eyes only can use that ability once per turn." Shay told him. "On the other hand, Revolution Falcon can attack both of your monsters which means no matter what you're losing 2000 life points, go Blitzing Bombardment!"

The Falcon charged in attacking the two.


Yuya: 0000

Shay: 2700

Shay wins the duel!


"Yuya lost?" Zuzu asked nervously seeing that.

"Shay's strong as I remembered." Lulu admitted.

"Yeah..." Zuzu nodded nervously as the guards dragged Yuya off and the images appeared again.

"And now let us see who is next!" Melissa called.

Everyone turned to see who the next duelists would be. Who was left is Dennis, and Sylvio. Lulu's eyes widened seeing Dennis. "Him?"

"Lulu?" Rin asked at that.

"He's hiding something, I know it." Lulu replied staring at him. "Be careful Rin."

Sylvio readied himself grinning at Dennis.

"This should be fun, let's have a good match." Dennis smiled.

"And now I activate Mellow Madonna's Pendulum Ability!" Sylvio grinned glowing, (Sylvio: 3000) "By putting 1000 points aside, I can add the main star, Abyss Actor - Superstar to my hand!"

"That's a strong start." Dennis admitted.

"My Trapeze Magician matches your Superstar point for point, so it's up to the Action Cards to pick a winner for their battle." Dennis smiled.

"Except, Comic Relief is gonna take the stage with his laughs!" Sylvio grinned as Comic Relief starting doing what he does best for laughs as Trapeze Magician, and Curtain Raiser started laughing.

"What?" Dennis questioned.

Then both Curtain Raiser, and Trapeze Magician switch sides. Dennis stared in shock. "What did you do?"

"Comic Relief's Pendulum Ability switches the control of your star for one of my actors showing that even proud enemies can work as one!" Sylvio grinned as both Trapeze Magician, and Superstar took hands bowing together for the crowd, "Though as Curtain Raiser is your only monster in play, it's attack points are doubled."

Abyss Actor - Curtain Raiser: (ATK: 1100 * 2 = 2200)

'That helps, but if he uses my Trapeze Magician's effect the right way I'll lose in one turn.' Dennis thought nervously.

"And now with your star's ability, I use one of his Overlay Units to allow Superstar to make a double attack!" Sylvio grinned as Trapeze Magician takes a unit. (ORU: 2 - 1) "Then Superstar sets an Abyss Script from my Deck but we will get to it later. And now Superstar lands in a strike at Curtain Raiser!"

Superstar charged in. Dennis winced as the monster shattered.

(Denis: 3700)

"And now Trapeze Magician strike your former master!" Sylvio grinned doing a pose as Trapeze Magician laughed jumping up at Dennis.

"And now Superstar finish this!" Sylvio grinned as Superstar charged in again.

As it did a card flew from his hand before revealed.

Ancient Gear Fusion. Dennis stared in shock as the card hit the ground before quickly moving to grab it. "I didn't expect that move, you're pretty good Sylvio."

He was too late from Sylvio's look from seeing the card, "You have a card that Obelisk Force use?"

"What are you talking about?" Dennis asked before being grabbed by two officers and being dragged off to the underground.

Sylvio watch on before riding back.

"Looks like Sylvio used Dennis own monster to take him out quickly. He'll definitely be someone to keep an eye on." Melissa announced as the images appeared again. "Well, let's see who's up next."

The holograms vanished until it shows Zuzu with Gong.


Ulrich362: Friends dueling in the penultimate match of the first round. Should be interesting, especially considering how they've both gained a new mechanic.
