bopdog111: Okay so now Zane joined their side.
Ulrich362: Yup, with his new Persona. Syrus and Rise really helped him.
bopdog111: Can he help for the obstacle ahead?
Ulrich362: Probably, but there's more than one thing to worry about. Enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! GX or Persona but we own the OCs!
They had contacted, and told Aster about the challenge. He said he'll do it on one condition, and that is having the Shadow Operatives, and Sho see the match.
"Considering how much of a threat Aster is at the moment it makes sense they would come." Yosuke admitted. "Still, are you sure about this partner?"
"It's the only option Yosuke, if we don't defeat Aster and he destroys the rest of them Nyx will arrive." Yu told him before taking a breath before closing his eyes. "We should head to the arena."
With that they walked to the arena to find them along with Dr. Crowler, Bonaparte, and Yuzu with the Operatives, and Sho.
"Where's Jaden-san?" Aigis asked.
"Ever since Aster destroyed his Persona he claimed to not be able to see his cards and left." Chie explained. "If Teddie hadn't healed him he might have died."
"It might make him understand I'm the chosen to destroy the Shadows." Aster shrugged, "And that is what I'll prove in front of the Kirijo Group."
Yu frowned seeing him. "Aster this is much bigger than just you, and destroying the Shadows in general is a mistake."
"But you don't hold any proof Yu. And when this is over you might finally realize your not needed." Aster said activating his Duel Disk, "So what are we waiting for?"
Yu let out a sigh before activating his own Duel Disk. "Do you remember the terms of the match?"
Of course." Aster smirked.
"Wait wait wait!"
Hearing that they all turned over to see who ran in was Jaden.
"Jaden?" Syrus asked in shock.
"I guess even blank cards couldn't keep you away." Zane smiled.
"Jaden! Where you been?" Alexis asked with a relieved smile.
"It's a long story Lex." Jaden said walking with a sheepish grin noticing Zane, and the Operatives, "Good to see ya guys again! Even you Sho your still using your blades for slicing, and dicing I see!"
"That's right and..." Sho started before pausing. "Wait a second..."
"This feeling, is it possible?" Aigis questioned.
"I'm back in the game! And now Aster what ya say we throw down!?" Jaden grinned to him.
Aster growled, "Give me one good reason why."
"Cause I got a never before seen Deck right here with power from Space!" Jaden grinned showing his Deck.
When he took it out Yu's eyes widened. 'That feels like...' "Alright Jaden, go ahead and show us how you've changed."
At the same time he took Cyber Dragon and handed it back to Zane.
"Alright fine if you want another reminder." Aster shrugged as they prepare themselves.
"DUEL!"
(Dueling Theme: Gundum X Resolution)
Jaden: 4000
Aster: 4000
Let the duel begin!
Jaden told Aster, "You can take the first shot."
Aster 1st Turn:
"Fine, but you'll soon see that destiny already decided the outcome a long time ago." Aster told him drawing. "I summon Destiny HERO - Diamond Dude in attack mode."

"Diamond Dude's special ability activates, so I'll check the top card of my deck and if it's a spell I send it to the graveyard."
Aster picked up the card and smirked.
"Graceful Charity, so since it was a spell Diamond Dude lets me use the effect next turn. I think that'll do for the start."
Jaden 1st Turn:
"Alright my turn!" Jaden called drawing, "And I start off by summoning a monster you never seen before! My Neo-Spacian Dark Panther!"
At that a panther wearing a cape appeared yowling.

"Neo-Spacian?" Aster asked in confusion.
"I told ya it's a Deck from Space." Jaden grinned, "And Dark Panther's super power allows it to make itself a copy of Diamond Dude!"
Panther's eyes glowed before morphing to Diamond Dude.
"Copying me?" Aster asked in shock.
Rise feels power from the card.
"That... what?" Rise asked in shock. "No way... that's impossible."
"What is it Rise?" Syrus asked her curiously.
"That... something happened to Jaden." Rise told him.
"She's right, but there's only one way to know for sure." Fuuka added.
"And next here is the power Dark Panther got from Diamond Dude." Jaden added, "If I remember right I check my top card for a Normal Spell which I send to the graveyard if it is, and activate it on my next turn even if Diamond Dude leaves the field. That's right isn't it?"
Aster frowned. "That's right."
Jaden drew before grinning, "Neos Fusion! And it's a Normal Spell so I'll discard it. Next a new Spell, Fake Hero!"
Fake Hero
Normal Spell Card
Special Summon 1 "Elemental HERO" monster from your hand. That monster cannot attack, and returns to the hand during the End Phase.
"Here's how it works. I can summon an Elemental HERO from my hand. But that monster can't attack, and goes back to my hand at the end of the turn." Jaden explained.
"What's the point then?" Aster questioned.
"You'll see." Jaden grinned, "Aster, everyone... Get ready to meet my new best card! The Elemental HERO Neos!"
The moment Jaden said that Yu, Aigis, Fuuka, and Rise all gasped in shock.
"Guys?" Syrus asked.
"Hang on, there's no such thing!" Aster argued, "I know all the heroes, and not one of them is Neos!"
At that on cue Neos appeared from space ready crossing his arms.
Elemental HERO Neos

ATK: 2500
DEF: 2000
(This card is treated as a "Persona" card.)
A new Elemental HERO has arrived from Neo-Space! When he initiates a Contact Fusion with a Neo-Spacian his unknown powers are unleashed.
"...Well fine!" Aster relented, "But it won't do much when it can't attack!"
"Then you don't know what Neos can do!" Jaden grinned.
"That... it feels just like Izanagi!" Rise cried in shock.
"Wait, are you telling us that Jaden's a Wildcard?" Akihiko asked her.
"He is, there is no other explanation." Aigis answered.
"What?" Syrus asked in shock, "Jaden... What did you gone through?"
"And now Aster get ready to see Neos' power! I use Neos, and Dark Panther for Contact Fusion!" Jaden called as the two flew up.
"Contact what?" Aster asked in disbelief.
"That..." Yu started before his eyes widened even more. 'Just what happened?'
The two formed together.
"Get ready to meet the Elemental HERO Dark Neos!"
At that Neos looking like a fiend appeared readying his claw.

"Ok... that's new." Aster admitted.
"And next I'll use Instant Neo Space!" Jaden called.

If the equipped monster leaves the field: You can Special Summon 1 "Elemental HERO Neos" from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard.
A galaxy vortex appeared below Dark Neos.
"And now Neos take out Diamond Dude!" Jaden called as Neos charged.
Diamond Dude shattered as Aster winced.
(Aster: 2900)
"I'll throw down a face-down, and call it to you." Jaden told him, "And due to Instant Neo Space, Dark Neos doesn't get shuffled back to my Deck."
Dark Neos crossed his arms.
"Where, and when did Jaden get multiple at once?" Kanji asked.
"More important could he met Igor?" Mitsuru asked.
"I think so." Yu nodded. "I don't know how but I think he did."
Jaden: 4000
Aster: 2900
Aster 2nd Turn:
Aster drew his card. "Diamond Dude's effect activates so I draw three cards and send two of them to my graveyard."
"So that means you might have another rival." Ken said to Sho.
Sho smirked. "Maybe."
Aster drew, and discard. Aster looked at his hand and smirked. "I activate Polymerization and use it to fuse three Destiny HERO monsters into Destiny HERO - Dominance!"

When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: You can draw 1 card. If this Fusion Summoned card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can target 3 Level 9 or lower "Destiny HERO" monsters with different names in your GY; Special Summon them. You can only use each effect of "Destiny HERO - Dominance" once per turn.
Dominance appeared set, and ready.
"Now I'll see Dominance's ability to check the top five cards of my deck and rearrange them however I want." Aster said before looking at his cards before nodding. "Dominance attack Dark Neos!"
Dominance attacked Dark Neos who fought back before Dominance struck Dark Neos destroying it as Jaden grunted. (Jaden: 3600)
He then grunted holding his head, 'Ow! Man that smarts! Guess that's the pain of a Persona destroyed in battle... Well I better make sure to prevent that all the time.'
"Gee thanks for doing that Aster!" Jaden called, "Cause since the monster Instant Neo Space equipped with is gone, I can summon Neos back from my Deck!"
Neos appeared again readying.
"Well when Dominance destroys a monster I can draw a card." Aster told him before smirking. "I'll set one card and end my move."
Jaden 2nd Turn:
"Okay!" Jaden called drawing, "And a trip down memory lane! Like it did for you the ability of Diamond Dude kicks in for me allowing me to use Neos Fusion from my graveyard!"
The card glowed.
"And it allows me to do a Contact Fusion from my deck, hand, or field by sending two monsters from either to the graveyard like playing a regular Polymerization!" Jaden called.
Aster frowned hearing that.
"So now with Neos, and let's say... Neo-Spacian Glow Moss from my Deck!" Jaden said showing the card as what appeared was a liquid glowing alien with blue eyes, "In order to form, Elemental HERO Glow Neos!"
The two flew up forming a glowing version of Neos with a human mouth visible, and a helmet.

During the End Phase: Shuffle this card into the Extra Deck. Once per turn, during your Main Phase 1: You can target 1 face-up card your opponent controls; destroy that target, then apply the effect based on its type. ● Monster: This card cannot attack this turn. ● Spell: This card can attack your opponent directly this turn. ● Trap: Change this card to Defense Position.
"What is that?" Aster questioned.
"A new Neos. His powers differ on what kind of Neo-Spacian or combination of two he Contact Fuses with." Jaden explained, "Next I activate the face-down, Double Hero Attack!"
Double Hero Attack
Quick-Play Spell Card
If you control a Fusion Monster that lists "Elemental HERO Neos" as material: Target 1 "HERO" Fusion Monster in your GY; Special Summon it, ignoring its Summoning conditions. You can only activate 1 "Double Hero Attack" per turn.
"With this if their is a Fusion Monster that uses Neos, I can summon a HERO Fusion from the graveyard! So come on back Dark Neos!" Jaden called as Dark Neos reappeared ready.
Aster's eyes widened before he smirked. "Those two are weaker than Dominance."
"First off Dark Neos can pick an effect monster, and as long as he's out that monster's effect are put on lockdown!" Jaden called as Dark Neos fired black smoke at Dominance, "Too bad in case for any immunities he has."
Aster frowned at that.
"Next here is Glow Neos'!" Jaden called as Glow Neos formed an orb of light, "It destroys a face-up card on your field like your Dominance!"
"Wait, but does Aster get to summon his monsters or not?" Chie asked. "Dr. Crowler?"
"Effects in the graveyard do not count as being on the field. Plus even if a monster's effects are negated if their effects that activate when in the graveyard then that doesn't count as being negated." Yuzu explained, "So all that can do is allow Aster summon monsters but it's worth getting rid of the biggest threat on the field."
Aster smirked. "We'll see, I bring back Diamond Dude, Destiny HERO - Drilldark, and Destiny HERO - Dasher."
Diamond Dude, along with Drilldark, and a new Destiny HERO appeared ready.

This card must be in the Graveyard to activate and to resolve this effect.
"Well when I use Glow Neos' ability to destroy a monster he can't attack this turn." Jaden mentioned, "So Dark Neos will swoop in on Diamond Dude!"
Dark Neos charged at Diamond Dude again.
"I activate the trap card D-Counter!" Aster countered. "This activates when you attack one of my Destiny HEROs, your monster is destroyed."
D-Counter
Normal Trap Card
When a "Destiny HERO" monster you control is targeted for an attack: Destroy the attacking monster.
Dark Neos shattered at that.
'Luckily Personas destroyed by card effects don't count for pain.' Jaden thought before saying, "I'll play this down, and it's your move. And by banishing Neos Fusion, Glow Neos stays on the field."
Glow Neos glowed crossing his arms.
Jaden: 3600
Aster: 2900
Aster 3rd Turn:
Aster drew his card and smirked. "It looks like Destiny planned for me to take you down a second time Jaden, I sacrifice all three of my Destiny HEROs."
The three glowed bright as they braced themselves for Aster's Persona.
"I summon Destiny HERO - Dogma!" Aster called as his own Persona appeared.

Once per turn, if you still control this face-up card during your opponent's next Standby Phase after you Special Summoned it this way: Halve your opponent's LP.
"Next I'll set two cards, and now Dogma attack Glow Neos!"
The two charged clashing against each other. Bastion then blinked, "Wait a second. Yu, Mitsuru what happens when two Personas fight each other exactly?"
"Persona fragments break apart... but hopefully they'll just fade." Mitsuru answered.
"Yeah, there shouldn't be anything to collect them." Yu agreed.
The two clashed as Glow Neos punched Dogma as Aster groaned placing a hand on his head while Dogma retaliated with an upper cup to Glow Neos' chin as Jaden yelped holding his head in the end Dogma prevailed smashing Glow Neos to the ground as Jaden knelled groaning. (Jaden: 2700)
Aster shook his head weakly before smirking. "Your new monsters don't have any chance of beating me. You were destined to lose, I end my turn."
Jaden 3rd Turn:
"Don't think so!" Jaden called drawing.
"Don't forget about Dogma's special ability." Aster told him. "During your Standby Phase your life points get cut in half. Hell's Judgement!"
Dogma glowed as Jaden cried out from the blast knelling. (Jaden: 1350)
"Just quit, you're destined to lose the duel Jaden." Aster smirked. 'No matter what he tries on my next turn I'll finish him off.'
Jaden looked to his card as he grinned, "Actually Aster I'll tell ya it's ironic. Cause Dogma's ability had just given me an advantage!"
"It what?" Aster questioned.
"First I activate Convert Contact!" Jaden called activating a spell.
Convert Contact
Normal Spell Card
If you control no monsters: Send 2 "Neo-Spacian" monsters (1 from your hand and 1 from your Deck) to the GY, then draw 2 cards.

Shuffle into the Deck, from your hand, field, or GY, the Fusion Materials that are listed on an "Elemental HERO" Fusion Monster that lists "Elemental HERO Neos" as Fusion Material, then Special Summon that Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, ignoring its Summoning conditions.
"Like Neos Fusion this makes a Contact Fusion from where I chose except instead of my deck it's the graveyard where I shuffle!" Jaden called, "And I shuffle back Air Humminingbird, and Neos to create Elemental HERO Air Neos!"
A red feathered wood-pecker alien with white wings appeared with Neos as they both flew up forming into a red skined, green eyes Neos with white wings.

While your Life Points are lower than your opponent's, this card gains ATK equal to the difference. This card returns to the Extra Deck during the End Phase.
"Are you an idiot, that monster is still too weak to help you." Aster told him.
"I wouldn't be too sure about that, cause I'm activating it's special ability." Jaden grinned, "Like I said before Dogma's ability gave me an advantage, and here's why! Since I got less Life Points the difference gets added to his attack points!"
"Hold on what!?" Aster asked shocked at such an ability.
(Jaden: 1350)
(Aster: 2900)
Air Neos: (ATK: 2500 + 1550 = 4050)
"Now Jaden has the strongest monster." Syrus smiled before suddenly pausing. "Wait but..."
"And now Air Neos time to take Dogma down for good! Attack!" Jaden called as Air Neos jumped up ready to blast Dogma who stood ready.
Aster just started in shock. "No way!"
Air Neos charged in as Jaden grinned only to pause, 'Wait a second... Aster doesn't have three tier Personas like the Team does which means... If Dogma's destroyed, Aster dies... Ah man I better stop before I do something I'd regret!'
"Activating quick-play, Contact Out!" Jaden called.
Contact Out
Quick-Play Spell Card
Return 1 "Neos" Fusion Monster you control to the Extra Deck. If all the Fusion Material Monsters listed on that Fusion Monster are in your Deck, you can Special Summon them.
"This instantly cancels the Contact Fusion!" Jaden called as just before Air Neos was gonna strike Dogma it split apart back to a very confused Air Hummingbird, and a understanding Neos.

DEF: 600
(This card is treated as a "Persona" card.)
Once per turn: You can gain 500 LP for each card in your opponent's hand.
"What?" Aster questioned. "What are you doing?"
The two flew back to Jaden as he said, "Aster, Dogma is your only Persona isn't it?"
"That's right, so what?" Aster questioned.
"You probably don't know this but if all the Personas a person wields are destroyed you die." Jaden answered, "Which means if Dogma is destroyed right now you would've gone with him."
Aster frowned. "Are you an idiot?"
"Didn't you ever wonder why you feel pain when Dogma takes a hit?" Jaden questioned.
Aster frowned as Jaden realized something, Dogma likely hadn't ever been hit. Zane couldn't destroy it and it their last duel Dogma was summoned as the winning move, it likely never was attacked before.
"Oh I get ya. During that battle with Glow Neos that was the first time isn't it?" Jaden asked.
"What are you talking about?" Aster questioned angrily.
"Don't act like it's nothing. You felt pain when Dogma was hit from fighting Glow Neos." Jaden told him, "I don't understand must of Personas but their the Manifestation of the Soul."
"All they are is a tool of Destiny!" Aster snapped. "One that proves I'm destined to wipe out every Shadow there is, and you threw this match. It's over Jaden!"
Jaden didn't say anything before turning to Yu, "Hey Yu! If I don't destroy Dogma from battle would that keep Aster from dying?"
"Got it." Jaden nodded, "During my main phase 2, I'll use Air Hummingbird's ability. How many cards are in your hand?"
"One." Aster told him.
The card grew a flower surprising them.
"Air Hummingbird saps 500 points to me for every card in your hand." Jaden explained as Air Hummingbird did his work. (Jaden: 1850) "Then I'll use Contact Fusion for Neos, and Air Hummingbird! Welcome back Air Neos!"
At that the two flew up forming to Air Neos ready. (ATK: 2500 + 1050 = 3550)
Aster frowned seeing that.
"Finally I'll activate Neo Space!" Jaden called as they appeared in a rainbow world.
Neo Space
Field Spell Card
"Elemental HERO Neos" and all Fusion Monsters that list "Elemental HERO Neos" as a Fusion Material Monster gain 500 ATK. Fusion Monsters that list "Elemental HERO Neos" as a Fusion Material Monster do not have to activate their effects during the End Phase that shuffle them into the Extra Deck.
"As long as this is in play all Neos gains 500 points, and don't shuffle back to the Deck." Jaden explained.
Air Neos: (ATK: 3550 + 500 = 4050)
"Your move Aster." Jaden told him, 'And I gotta figure out a way to get rid of Dogma without destroying him in battle.'
Jaden: 1850
Aster: 2900
Aster 4th Turn:
Aster drew his card. "I activate Fusion Destiny!"

You can only use each effect of "Destiny HERO - Dystopia" once per turn.
"Dystopia's ability activates, you take damage equal to Diamond Dude's attack points!"
At that Dystopia at that struck Jaden with 1400 points as he cried out. (Jaden: 0450)
"D-Don't forget as my Life Points get lower, Air Neos gets stronger." Jaden grunted as Air Neos glowed. (ATK: 4050 + 1400 = 5450)
Aster smirked. "I banish Destiny HERO - Dynatag from my graveyard to give Dystopia 1000 more attack points."
Dystopia: (ATK: 2800 + 1000 = 3800)
"Now that Dystopia's attack points have changed I can return them to normal to destroy any card on the field and I think you know just what card I have in mind."
Jaden widen his eyes as Dystopia opened his palm aiming at Air Neos.
"Noble Justice!" Aster called.
Dystopia: (ATK: 3800 - 1000 = 2800)
Air Neos tried to fight against it but was sucked in.
"I told you it was over Jaden, Destiny HERO - Dogma finish him off!" Aster called.
Dogma charged in only for Neos to appeared to guard Jaden as Neos retaliated punching Dogma. (Aster: 1200)
"What?" Aster questioned in shock.
"I had used a trap from my Deck. A gift from a friend that has a long nose." Jaden said showing the card.
Determination of One's Self

If you are attacked directly, and have 4 or more "Persona" monsters in your GY: Special Summon 1 "Persona" monster from your Hand, Deck, or GY in Defense Position, negate the attack, and if you do inflict damage to your opponent equal to half the ATK of the attacking monster. The monster summoned by this effect has it's effects negated, and cannot be destroyed by battle this turn. If you have no cards in your hand you can activate this card from your Deck.
Aster's eyes widened in shock. "Fine, you bought yourself one turn. I end my move."
"Friend with a long nose? Why must he joke about that?" Bastion asked shaking his friend.
"He isn't joking Bastion." Yu told him. "He's absolutely serious."
"That's true." Mitsuru smiled. "Meeting him was certainly an experience."
Jaden 4th Turn:
"Okay... It all comes down to this!" Jaden said before drawing, "Okay! Draw!"
He looked at the card in his hand, and grinned, "Alright go me!"
'Whatever, it's not like he can do anything. Dreamer will protect me and I'll just end things with the next card in my deck.' Aster thought calmly.
"I activate Contact Gate!" Jaden called activating a Spell.
Contact Gate

Upon the Spell's activation the field glowed bright.
"What?" Aster questioned shielding his eyes. "What are you doing?"
"By banishing Ground Mole that was used for my trap, and Flare Scarab from my graveyard, I can summon two new Neo-Spacians!" Jaden called, "Like Glow Moss, and Dark Panther!"
The two appeared ready.

"So now Aster this is one of Neos' most powerful forms. Triple Contact Fusion!" Jaden called as Glow Moss, Dark Panther, and Neos flew up.
"Triple Contact Fusion?" Aster asked in shock.
The three formed as Rise, and Fuuka sensed much more power.
"Let's welcome, the Elemental HERO Chaos Neos!"
At that Neos flew down looking like a cross-breed between Dark Neos, and Glow Neos real powerful.

"What is that?" Aster asked in shock.
"One of Neos' strongest selves." Jaden grinned, "First thanks to Neo Space he gains 500 points."
Chaos Neos: (ATK: 3000 + 500 = 3500)
"Then if he's shuffled back to the Deck monsters on the field are placed face-down." Jaden added.
"What's the point of that, he's your only monster and I can just flip my monsters back up on my turn." Aster pointed out.
"But he has one more ability that makes him dangerous to both of us." Jaden answered, "And that's during my main phase 1 which turns into a Coin Toss of Fate. I toss three coins, and effects depend on how many Heads I get. If I get just one then all monsters on my field goes to the hand. If it's two all monsters on your field have their effects on lock-down until the rest of the turn. Finally if three heads all your monsters are instantly destroyed!"
"He's betting everything on a coin flip?" Chie asked. "But if he even gets one Tails he loses."
"But effects negated has a benefit too so Dystopia's ability won't stop Chaos Neos." Bastion told her.
"Yeah, but that's only 700 points of damage and Aster has 1200 life points." Chie pointed out.
"Alright Chaos Neos let's do this!" Jaden called as three coins appeared as Chaos Neos threw one of them up as it landed on Heads, "Alright round 1 is for me! Next Coin!"
Chaos Neos threw the coin in the air as it landed on Heads.
"Round two to me as well!" Jaden grinned, "Alright last Coin!"
Chaos Neos grabbed the coin as he toss it in the air.
'Destiny decided I would win this.' Aster thought.
The coin in slow motion dropped down rolling as everyone watched in anticipation watching as it slowly gone down before landing on the ground as they looked what the result is.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...Heads!
"IMPOSSIBLE!" Aster screamed in shock.
"And Round 3 is mine, and you know what that means right! It means say goodbye to Dogma, and Dystopia! Chaos Meltdown!" Jaden called as Chaos Neos spiral around shooting out Darkness, and Light everywhere on the field as the two Destiny HEROs cried out as they were both destroyed before Aster's eyes.
Aster could only watch in horror. "No... this can't be happening it..."
Suddenly his eyes widened looking at his only remaining card. 'Of course, Destiny always has a plan.'
"And now time to finish this! Chaos Neos! Attack him directly!" Jaden cried as Chaos Neos charged at Aster.
"I play D-Fortune!" Aster called. "By banishing a Destiny HERO from my graveyard this stops your attack by ending the battle phase!"
D-Fortune
Normal Trap Card
When your opponent declares a direct attack: Banish 1 "Destiny HERO" monster from your Graveyard; end the Battle Phase.
"I banish Dreamer!"
The attack stopped.
"Ah man come on! That attack too!?" Jaden asked shocked.
"Haven't you figured it out yet Jaden, no matter what you do you can't fight against Destiny." Aster told him. "Even at your best the outcome was obvious from the beginning."
"Come on quit it with the Destiny already." Jaden said with a grin, "I let what I decide is right for me. And your trap just costed ya."
Excuse me?" Aster asked. "You can't attack me anymore."
"Maybe not but Determination was not the only card the Nose gave me." Jaden said taking a card to his hand, "And it's known as Union of the Soul!"
Union of the Soul
Normal Trap Card
When a "Persona" monster is destroyed this turn, you can add this card from your Deck to your hand. If the only monsters you control are "Persona" monsters (min 1.) you can activate this card from your hand. Tribute 1 "Persona" monster: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of 1 monster destroyed this turn.
"With this, and my monsters are Personas, I can sacrifice Chaos Neos for one last push." Jaden said as Chaos Neos vanished, "So now you lose Life Points equal to Dogma's own points!"
Aster's eyes widened at that. "Wait, but that means..."
Dogma appeared in front of him before striking him with a blast.
Jaden: 0450
Aster: 0000
Jaden wins the duel!
"Yeah! Jaden did it!" Syrus cheered, "That's our Wildcard buddy!"
Aster was on the ground staring at the ceiling. "That... it's not possible. Destiny foretold I would win... Sartorius was certain of it."
Jaden walked over offering a hand. Aster stared at Jaden in disbelief. "What are you doing?"
"Helping you up. You think I'm gonna leave you here?" Jaden asked with a smile.
'That... wait could Jaden be the one who can change Destiny? No but...' Aster started before taking Jaden's hand only to turn to Dr. Crowler. "I think starting today I'll be attending Duel Academy myself."
"I'll arrange a room in the Investigation Dorm then." Dr. Crowler said before turning to Yu, "It does have another room right?"
"Assuming Hassleberry doesn't mind moving out." Yu answered.
"Hey!" Hassleberry yelled as they all chuckled.
"Speaking of which I don't intend to move in there if you don't mind." Jaden said to them.
"Wait, you don't?" Chie asked in confusion. "But why not?"
"Slifer Dorm's all the home I need." Jaden grinned.
"But... you'll be all by yourself." Syrus mentioned.
"Yeah Jaden, and we won't allow that." Yuzu agreed to that, "Besides you just got back, and have Yu, and Aigis' ability as the Wildcard, and while your new Personas are powerful you can't handle every Shadow thrown to you."
"Well... Ya kinda got me there." Jaden said rubbing his head.
Yuzu smiled softly, "Well how bout this? You all will live in the Slifer Dorm from time to time whenever you all want, and can train together?"
"That sounds perfect." Yu smiled.
Ulrich362: Well... Jaden's new power managed to take Aster down.
bopdog111: And I bet the others are gonna hear a big interesting story of his Wildcard, and Neos abilities.
Ulrich362: Definitely... of course next up will be the reveal of something rather... well let's just say move over Blue, a new color is on Academy Island.
bopdog111: Yeah while Dormitory Demolition is a good episode it is obvious Bonaparte won't try to destroy the Slifer Dorm with the way it is now. And now Chazz has gone through all kinds of measures in the Society of Light.
Ulrich362: Exactly... see you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
