Chapter 8: The Quest Begins

Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh 5ds, Avatar the Last Air Bender or Naruto, I do own Kasumi and her deck which is based off of Fire Emblem Female characters also she does have one one male Fire Emblem Character.

The next morning came quickly. Katara was helping my mother prepare breakfast for the family and my friends. The Southern Water Tribe Water Bender in training was feeling a bit better that not all Fire Benders like my mother were evil. After all the story that my mother was used when she was our age due to her psychic powers made her realize that even Fire Benders were picked on. Now my mother was telling her how she was pleased to have me and that my decision to join Konoha as a ninja was making her happy but increasingly worried about my safety.

"That's a good sign that you care for your daughter Lady Aki" Katara told her

I saw my mother smiling "I do love her as she is our true daughter but I also care for Naruto." my mother told her "But at the same time, I understand her."

"May I ask what do you mean Lady Aki?" Katara asked her.

"Sure" my mother told her "Kasumi, has her father's courage."

Katara and even her brother whom had just heard this and was along side me turned to me "What does that mean?" He whispered over to me.

"You'll find out" I whispered back.

Sure enough he and I heard my mother explaining further "I shouldn't be surprised after all, she may have my looks but inside she has her father's personality. Before I met Yusei he was all about protection. Protection of what you ask? Protection of his friends. Afterwards once he and I married and had our daughter. After our deaths at the hands of Orochimaru's men, our daughter finally realized her father's teaching and as a result will do whatever it takes to save her friends and loved ones..."

"Just like her father" Katara said but Sokka said it as well only loud enough for my mother and Katara to here.

"Good morning Lady Kasumi and Sokka" Katara told me.

"Morning mom, morning Katara" I told her smiling.

Sokka spoke "Morning sis, morning Lady Aki."

My mother smiled "How long were you two awake?"

"You know me mother" I answered "Ever sense I became a konochi of the Leaf Village, I've been getting up earlier."

"Well that's nice dear" My mother said to me and Sokka turned to me "Man, how long ago have you joined Konoha?"

"About four or three months from now" I answered.

"But yet" Katara said looking at Takara whom was rubbing against my leg playfully "You have fighting experience and are faster than normal ninjas of this village."

"That's because" Naruto answered for me as he came down the stairs "My sis was training with several teachers to protect herself from a ninja ambush, without her skills today, we'll I'd be darn to say we might not know of Aang or what became of him when the Fire Nation took him away."

"True" Katara and Sokka told him.

"It also has to deal with what I had to deal with" I answered them "Without my powers and skills I would've been kidnapped for sure...Especially during the combined invasion of the Fire Benders and Sound Ninja."

Naruto even agreed with me "That's true...Especially against all those brainwashed Signers we had to Duel against...Luckily do to her learning how to defend herself she had the skills needed to be a ninja."

So after breakfast Naruto, Hanabi, Haku, Takara, Aang, Katara and Sokka walked outside towards the blimp. We were joined by Iruka-Sensei whom joined us. As we were near the blimp, everyone of us including our guests turned towards the peaceful Leaf Village.

I turned to Aang as he sighed turning over to us "Once we start to journey, this might be the last time you five see your village for a while."

Hanabi turned over towards Aang "It's normal for Shinobi like us to be gone for a long time while on missions. This might be one of the longest missions we've ever had."

"I understand where you are getting at" I told Aang "But now that you've sworn to stop the Fire Nation you will get help from my team right Iruka-Sensei?"

"That's right" Iruka-Sensei told him.

Iruka-Sensei seemed to have paused and looked at the sun as if he was expecting someone. Hanabi, Haku, Iruka-Sensei and I were about to come in when we detected a ninja's presence.

"Get down!" Iruka-Sensei warned Sokka, Katara, and Aang "Kasumi, Haku, Hanabi, resemble a protection barrier!"

Without haste my ninja team got into formation causing Naruto to join us "What's going on?"

"That's what I want to know" Sokka said "I don't sense anything."

"That's because you're not a ninja" Iruka-Sensei told him "We are able to detect things that aren't normal and right now that's what were feeling. Something not right...Surprsingly even though Naruto has more experience that the Lady Signer, he isn't sensing it."

"That's one thing we have to work on" a voice said and we saw Kakashi-Papa making his way over to us.

"Kakashi-Papa?" I asked with Naruto asking out "Kakashi-Sensei?"

Seeing that it was someone we could trust we let go of our protective state.

Before Iruka-Sensei could speak up Kakashi-Papa answered "Sorry, I'm late, a black cat crossed my path and I had to take another route."

Hearing this Naruto, Hanabi, Haku, Iruka-Sensei and I shook our heads without even being seen by Sokka, Katara, and Aang. Sense it was the first time Aang, Katara, and Sokka met Kakashi-Papa they bought the excuse. That's what it really was an excuse but deep down we all knew Kakashi-Papa meant well.

"What are you doing here Kakashi?" Aang asked him.

"Simple" Kakashi-Papa answered turning to him "I had a little chat with Lady Aki yesterday and on her request went to Lady Tsunade."

"What for Kakashi-Sensei?" Naruto asked.

"What else?" Kakashi-Papa asked "Lady Aki's asked me to help keep an eye on the Avatar."

"Me?" Aang asked.

Kakashi-Papa nodded at Aang "Also to watch over Kasumi while she's out on her own mission protecting Aang." he turned to Haku "No offense Haku but she doesn't want to take the risk in losing her daughter."

"None taken Kakashi-Sensei" Haku said to my adopted father "And normally I would be able to protect Lady Kasumi alone but on a long mission, I'm not sure myself."

"Don't worry" Kakashi-Papa told him turning to Aang "Well the Hokage has agreed with Lady Aki and so I will be watching over you Avatar and the Lady Signer."

"Could we ask you for some assistance in fighting the Fire Nation soldiers?" Sokka asked.

"Of course" Kakashi said which then he turned serious "I can see how Iruka's ninja team is well prepared to protect you Avatar but I'm not sure on if Katara and Sokka have what it takes to help you out."

"What was that?" Sokka demanded.

I knew where Kakashi-Papa was getting at as my adopted father turned to Sokka "I'm simply stating that you and Katara don't have the experience to fight a huge army or small army at that matter."

"And you could?" Sokka demanded.

"Sokka" I told him "Kakashi-Papa isn't known as the Copy Ninja for nothing now, he's learned over one hundred Ninjutsus and nearly mastered them. He's taken on the legendary Zabuza Momochi and held his own and even ended up defeating him twice when no one else could defeat Zabuza. Kakashi means well, if I know him better than anyone this is just his way of saying he wants to test you."

"She's right" Kakashi-Papa said turning to Aang, Katara, and Sokka as Sokka stated "But you could've just told us that you wanted to test us...By the way we'll ace this right sis?"

"I'm not sure Sokka" Katara told him "We're up against a Jounin and they are the strongest level ninja of this village! Well other than the Hokage."

Aang turned towards Kakashi "We'll we'll do it."

Hearing this Kakashi turned to Iruka-Sensei whom nodded "We have time. Just make sure we'll leave shortly after."

"Alright" Kakashi-Papa said quickly he dug his hands into his pocket and retrieved two bells "You're test, is to try to take these away from me."

"That's gonna be easy as pie" Sokka shouted.

Kakashi-Papa, Naruto and my team sighed knowing that Kakashi wasn't easy as he seemed.

We turned to see a log "One of you three will be tied to that log and automatically fail."

Katara sighed turning towards me "Was Kakashi always like this?"

"When he's training someone or testing a group he is" I told them "Kakashi-Papa has a stern policy when teaching."

Katara, Sokka and Aang got ready as Kakashi-Papa turned to them "So shall we begin?"

The three nodded as Kakashi-Papa smiled "Then let's begin."

The test suddenly began with Kakashi-Papa simply spending his time while watching them. From watching my Ninja squad Aang, Katara and Sokka knew that we were sneaky. So they tried to camouflage themselves and made themselves scarce.

"Nice to see that you know something about us ninja" Kakashi-Papa said.

Without warning Sokka came out facing Kakashi-Papa. Seeing this my adopted father turn to him "Not the wisest approach facing with an open frontal attack."

Kakashi-Papa then pulled out his Make out Tactics book and started to read "Now, time to start where I had left off."

This made Sokka angry "Are you trying to taunt me! Well I'm coming in!"

Sokka drew his Boomerang and charged. Kakashi-Papa blocked the boomerang expertly. Seeing this Sokka kicked out at him but Kakashi-Papa ducked and then Kakashi-Papa was right behind Sokka positioning his fingers in a position that made my adopted brother sweat drop.

"This can't be well" Naruto muttered to me as I nodded.

Then I heard Katara and Aang shout "Watch out Sokka! Kakashi is right behind you preparing an attack!"

"Wha?" Sokka asked.

"Too late" Kakashi-Papa said "Konoha's Secret TaiJutsu...Thousand Years of Pain!"

With this Kakashi-Papa strikes Sokka with it right in the butt. Just like Naruto experienced, Sokka made a face, then took off holding his butt screaming. Sokka flew landed right in front of Hanabi's feet and got to see her toes close up and ground too.

"What was that?" Sokka asked dazed then he whirled about throwing his boomerang at Kakashi-Papa.

The Jounin easily dodged the attack but was Air Bended on the back causing him to go crashing into Sokka's boomerang.

"Thanks to Aang we got him!" Sokka announced.

Only to his dismay Kakashi-Papa turned into wood and disappeared. I saw Sokka looking around only to his dismay for him to find Aang and Katara easily and kick them to where he was.

"You two okay?" Sokka asked them.

"He sure kicks hard" Katara admitted over to her brother.

"And he's good at his attacks" Aang said "I couldn't even sense him coming until he got the two of us."

"It's not over yet!" Sokka replied being stubborn he turned "Katara try Water Bending."

"But I don't know much about it!" Katara said "But I'll try."

She tried moving her arms for the water right next to her to go at Kakashi-Papa but instead she accidentally hit her friends freezing them.

"Katara!" Sokka shouted as Naruto fell onto the ground laughing at the little mistake "I meant him not us!"

"Lighten up Sokka" Aang told him "She tried."

Kakashi-Papa just shook his head "Well now this match is one sided. More ways than one."

"We're not finished yet!" Sokka told him.

"I like your enthusiasm kid" Kakashi-Papa told him "But it's pointless to free yourselves. Anyway, I guess I was pushing this test before your sister had control of her powers. Tell you what, I'll give you three another chance when she has full control over her powers."

"Thanks Kakashi" Aang told him.

"Oh come on Kakashi-Sensei" Naruto said "What if I went alongside Aang, and Sokka."

"You already had taken my test and know it's meaning" Kakashi-Papa told him "Once they know my true meaning of the Bell Test which I will still give them once Katara knows Water Bending really well."

Sokka turned to me smiling "See Lady Kasumi we won!"

"No, we didn't" Aang told him "We failed. Mostly because Katara didn't have complete control of her powers but at least he realized that and decided to test us more...Besides he had a meaning to it...Wonder what that meant."

So after this we with Kakashi-Papa at our side went inside the blimp and took off.

"So where should we go?" Aang asked Iruka-Sensei.

Haku had the answer "Sense you didn't want Lady Ruka to teach you Water Bending...And sense the only other Southern Water Bender is a beginner at it, the best choice is the Northern Water Kingdom...My home land."

I couldn't help but notice Haku's tone in his voice "Haku? Why sound so low?"

"Well" Haku stated "It's been so long sense I went back to my home. Remember Naruto, that like you I had no family, I was an orphan."

"That's right" Naruto said with a sigh.

"Even though it was a nice place" Haku said to us "And it treated me better than any other Bending country other than Air Benders, we were treated fairly. So I'm not sure if returning to it is a good thing or a bad thing considering I went off and became a ninja and a great Duelist."

I understood him but I caught something on Kakashi-Papa's arm.

"Kakashi-Papa" I began and he turned to me "What's with the Duel Disk on your arm?"

"Oh this?" Kakashi-Papa asked me smiling "I was wondering when one of you would notice."

"You got into this game Kakashi-Sensei?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, seeing that it was a fun game, made me want to try it out. So while you and Kasumi's ninja squad was away, I went and bought a Duel Disk and deck and Kasumi, I would like to be the first person to Duel against."

I smiled at Kakashi-Papa "Alright Kakashi-Papa but know this, just because you are my adopted father, I won't go easy on you!"

Kakashi-Papa turned to Iruka-Sensei whom was steering the blimp "Were not close to the Bending Nations so it's okay by me."

Kakashi-Papa and I took our positions and activated our Duel Disks and shouted "Duel!"

With this the Duel began.

(My Life Points: 4000)

(Kakashi-Papa's Life Points: 4000)

"Like I told Aang" I told Kakashi-Papa "Sense this is your first Duel, you can go first."

"Why thank you Kasumi" Kakashi-Papa said "It's my turn then, I draw!"

He drew his card and looked at his hand "Alright Kasumi, I'll start off by placing a monster face down"

So with this Kakashi-Papa set a monster face down in defense mode. It appeared horizontally.

"Next" Kakashi-Papa stated "I'll end my turn by placing two cards face down."

So, Kakashi-Papa set two cards face down.

"Then it's my move!" I declared "I draw!"

I drew a card. Then I carefully studied the field, normally if there was a face down monster it usually activated a Flip Effect, but regardless I knew I had to attack and not be frightened not to attack which I witnessed one student at Duel Academy in Konoha did.

"Alright then" I stated.

"Hold on there" Kakashi-Papa stated "I activate one of my Trap Cards: Jar of Greed"

A Trap Card activated and Kakashi-Papa simply stated "Now I get to draw one card."

With this Kakashi-Papa drew a card from his deck. I missed out on the meaning why he'd activate this Trap Card perhaps he needed another card.

"Then" I began "I'll summon my Swordmaster Mia!"

My Swordmaster Mia appeared on the field. (ATK: 1800, DEF: 1000)

"Next" I began "I'll have my Swordmaster Mia attack your face down monster!"

With this Swordmaster Mia charged but Kakashi-Papa was ready for it "I activate my second Trap Card: Floral Shield!"

A bunch of Flowers appeared as Kakashi-Papa announced "Now I can activate this Trap Card when you declare an attack...Now I can negate the attack and afterwards draw one card"

He negated my attack and I watched him draw another card due to Floral Shield's effect. This was puzzling me greater as I thought Why is Kakashi-Papa drawing cards...So far he had two Trap Cards that allowed him to do that.

I then explained "Due to Swordmaster Mia's special ability she can attack twice during the Battle Phase!"

Kakashi-Papa nodded "Which is one of the reasons why I played Floral Shield. I knew about that ability bring her on this time."

"You got it!" I told him "Swordmaster Mia attack his face down card with Swordmaster Critical!"

With this my Swordmaster charged the face down monster again and tripped the card up then came down onto the card slashing it as she came down. It was only when she completed her attack that I saw what it was! It was a three eyed Fiend type monster. Sangan! I thought as I saw the monster and it's stats. (DEF: 600, ATK: 1000)

"Thanks for destroying my Sangan" Kakashi-Papa said "Because now when he is destroyed I can look threw my deck and add a monster to my hand with fifteen hundred attack points or less."

So I watched as Kakashi-Papa looked threw his deck and I saw one card poke out and he added it into his hand. It was then I got Kakashi-Papa's plan. He had a deck containing an Instant Win, and that was Exodia only Exodia used decks that depended on support cards such as Jar of Greed and any other card that let you draw a card.

"What's the point of doing that?" Naruto asked.

Hanabi, and Haku sighed knowing right away.

"It seems that Kakashi-Sensei might be the only non Signer to defeat the Lady Signer in a Duel."

"What?" Naruto asked "So far Kakashi-Sensei didn't do anything but draw cards and have Sangan's effect activate!"

"You're really dense aren't you?" Hanabi asked "It's a no brainer heck even Aang knows what might be coming."

"Of course I do!" Aang shouted "A rare monster that very few possess!"

This got Naruto "What does Kakashi-Sensei have, boy I've got to see this."

I knew now what Kakashi-Papa was up to and I had to defeat him before he drew the final pieces.

"Then" I began "I'll throw two cards face down, turn end."

So I threw two more cards face down and ended my turn. I was thinking Kakashi-Papa would've had some other Duel Plan but having Exodia in your deck meant you were a threat.

"Then" Kakashi-Papa began "It's my turn, I draw!"

He drew his card "First I'll activate the Spell Gold Sarcophagus!"

I gasped out as he announced the Spell Card's effect "Now I can search threw my deck and select and Remove from Play a card from it. Then during the 2nd Stand By Phase after it's activation, I gain the removed card."

With this I saw Kakashi-Papa's deck open up and he selected another card and removed it from play. I now knew what I was up against the removed card had to be one of the other pieces to Exodia.

"Next" Kakashi-Papa began "I'll be summoning my Shield Wing in defense mode!"

A green bird appeared in defense mode. (DEF: 900, ATK: 0)

Now I knew this card was a problem, up to twice per turn it couldn't be destroyed in battle. Which meant I'd have to attack it three times just to destroy it. This was one solid defensive card.

"Next" Kakashi-Papa said to me "I'll end my turn after placing a face down card"

"Then" I began "It's my move, I draw!"

I drew and got a level four Tuner Monster "Alright then Kakashi-Papa, I'm going to take that Shield Wing out! I'll summon my Hyper Synchron Tuner Monster!"

Hyper Synchron appeared on the field (ATK: 1600, DEF: 800)

"Alright Hyper Synchron and Swordmaster Mia equals a level eight Synchro Monster!" Naruto shouted "Get it sis!"

I heard Naruto and nodded "Got it, but I've got to be careful."

I was right, I had to be careful the Face Down Card Kakashi-Papa placed down had to be bad so I shouldn't bring out my ace card, instead I had another plan to take Shield Wing out "Alright now!"

I began "I'll be tuning my Level Four Hyper Synchron with my Level Four Swordmaster Mia!"

The two Synchro Monsters began to under go the Synchro Summoning phase. Hyper Synchron opened it's chest and sent out four rings at Swordmaster Mia whom went threw them as I chanted out my chant "Bonded by Blood and Loyalty by the Crimson Dragon, the light shines for the truth...For Justice...Synchro Summon...Olympian Dragon!"

Olympian Dragon appeared on the field in a flash of light. (ATK: 2600, DEF: 1900)

"Now with Olympian Dragon Kakashi-Papa, not only does it gain eight hundred points from Hyper Synchron as she's a Dragon, it won't matter that you're Shield Wing can't be destroyed in battle by two attacks because once Olympian Dragon attacks, it automatically destroys that monster and inflicts the battle damage regardless of position that monster is in."

"Then I better stop your Olympian Dragon from attacking" Kakashi-Papa stated as he saw my Signer Dragon get stronger (2600-3400)"For now I activate the Continuous Trap Card: Nightmare Wheel!"

Kakashi-Papa's Continuous Trap Card activated "Now I can select one monster on the field that you control, now during the remainder of the time it's out that Monster can't attack nor change it's Battle Position."

With this I saw Olympian Dragon get attached to the huge wheel unable to escape from it.

"Man" Naruto stated "Kakashi-Sensei's good to expect my sister to bring out Olympian Dragon quickly."

Seeing Olympian Dragon strapped to it and sense I couldn't attack due to the card I turned to it I'll get you out of it Olympian Dragon. Hang in there. We'll get him next time.

"Then" I began "I end my turn."

"Then it's my turn" Kakashi-Papa began "I draw!"

He drew his card and for each one he drew I was hoping it wasn't a piece of Exodia.

"Now Kasumi dear" Kakashi-Papa told me "There is another effect from my Nightmare Wheel, as long as it's out during my Stand By Phase, you lose five hundred Life Points."

I shifted hearing this and seeing the Nightmare Wheel send a darkish mist at me and it decreased my Life Points a bit.

(My Life Points: 3500)

He then pointed out "Alright then, I'll summon my Vortex Trooper in defense mode!"

A weird blue machine appeared on the field (DEF: 600, ATK: 0)

Kakashi-Papa then announced it's effect "Now once Vortex Trooper is Normal Summon, I can place two cards in my hand into my deck. Then the deck is shuffled afterwards, I draw two cards."

With this Kakashi-Papa drew two more cards and once again I prayed it wouldn't be an Exodia piece.

"Next, it's time to bring you back to your time frame," Kakashi-Papa began "I'll activate the Spell Card: Double Summon, it allows me to Summon one additional Monster"

With this he selected another monster "Now I summon my Sword Master Tuner Monster!"

Sword Master appeared and in attack mode. (ATK: 1200, DEF: 0)

"And now" Kakashi-Papa said "I'm going to tune my Level Three Swordmaster with my level two Shield Wing."

"That's a level five Synchro Monster" Hanabi stated "What is he thinking of?"

Kakashi-Papa had the answer "You'll see Hanabi."

With this his Sword Master turned into three stars as it scanned the level two Shield Wing as it was doing this Kakashi-Papa chanted out "By the powers of Summoning Earth Style, rise from the earth and take down the enemy...Synchro Summon...Anbu Ninja Hound!"

With this a ninja dog appeared on the field. It was dressed as a Konoha Anbu squad. Only it was a dog standing on two legs and holding dangerous Anbu swords. (ATK: 2300, DEF: 1500)

"Anbu Ninja Hound?" I asked this new Synchro monster it was far weaker than Olympian Dragon.

"That's right Kasumi" Kakashi-Papa said "This represents my days in the Anbu. Now I'll activate one of it's special abilities."

"Which is?" I asked "Once per turn while he's on the field I can look at the top three cards of your deck."

I thought that might've been a bad thing but he activated it's effect and sure enough Anbu Ninja Hound was looking at the top three cards of my deck.

"If any of your cards are Monsters," he began "I get to draw one card."

Sure enough, I had one monster which meant Kakashi-Papa got to draw one card. I knew by his look that it was an Exodia piece.

"Next" Kakashi-Papa "All there is to do is attack."

"You're crazy Kakashi-Sensei!" Naruto told him "Because Olympian Dragon is stronger!"

"Not really" Kakashi-Papa told him "Because Anbu Ninja Hound has another ability. It can attack directly."

With this I saw Anbu Ninja Hound dive underneath the blimp.

"But if it does attack directly" Kakashi-Papa said "It's attack is halved until the end of the Damage Step Now Anbu Ninja Hound, Lethal Backstab."

With this Anbu Ninja Hound came out of the ground from behind me then with it's swords back stabbed me. Had this been a real Duel I'd be dead but thankfully the damage wasn't real. My Life Points lowered. (My Life Points: 2350)

"Turn end" Kakashi-Papa told me.

"Then it's my move" I told him "I draw!"

I drew my card "Alright then," "I'm going to start by summoning my Wavern Rider Jill!"

Wavern Rider Jill appeared on the field (ATK: 2000, DEF: 1000)

"Next" I began "I'll play my own Spell Card Double Summon! Which will allow me to summon one additional monster!"

I then choose the monster "I now summon my Copy Plant Tuner Monster!"

My copy Plant tuner appeared on the field. (ATK: 0, DEF: 0)

"Now" I began "Once per turn, Copy Plant can mimic a level of your monster, and I choose for it to mimic your level three Vortex Trooper!"

With this Copy Plant turned into a plant version of Vortex Trooper (1-3)

"And now" I said "I'm going to tune my Level three Copy Plant with my Level four Wavern Rider Jill!"

With this I began a new chant for a new Summon "Bonded by Loyalty by the Crimson Dragon, the light shines for the truth...For Justice...Synchro Summon Hercules the Son of Zeus!

With this a muscular man appeared. This man was Zeus's son the great Hercules the strongest man in the world. He seemed to resemble the actual real Hercules. (ATK: 2500, DEF: 2150)

"Hercules?" Aang asked "When did she have him?"

"Lady Kasumi used to have all of the other Synchro Monsters her parents have but sense they are brought back to life, she returned all except for the Blackwings, Stardust Dragon, and Black Rose Dragon back to the original Signer."

"So that's the card he gave her when she told him she became a ninja" Hanabi said.

I knew what she meant by he, I had an Olympian Summoning Contract with the Greek God Zeus.

"Amazing" Kakashi-Papa began.

"It is" I told him "Because now with Hercules on the field I can have him automatically destroy a card on the field and I choose the Trap Card Nightmare Wheel!"

I turned to Hercules "Free Olympian Dragon with Super Strength!"

With this Hercules punched the Nightmare Wheel shattering it freeing Olympian Dragon.

"And now Kakashi-Papa" I began "This is almost over!"

I pointed out towards him "Olympian Dragon...Attack his Vortex Trooper with Lighting Judgment!"

Olympian Dragon obeyed and this time used her attack as I reminded Kakashi-Papa of her ability "When Olympian Dragon attacks a monster, she automatically destroys it and inflicts the Battle Damage!"

With this Olympian Dragon's attack destroys Kakashi-Papa's Vortex Trooper!"

"She did it!" Naruto announced as Kakashi-Papa's Life Points dropped. (Kakashi-Papa's Life Points: 1200)

"Not bad Kasumi" Kakashi-Papa said "But, Vortex Trooper has another ability...When he is destroyed I get to draw one card."

I forgot about that ability as Kakashi-Papa drew his card and I saw him smile underneath his mask as he drew another Exodia piece.

"Hercules" I told him "Attack Anbu Ninja Hound with Heroic Protection!"

With this Hercules charged Anbu Ninja Hound and with a powerful punch destroyed it as I announced Hercules's effect "When Hercules destroys a monster any battle damage triples."

"Once again, not bad" Kakashi-Papa said admitting it as his Life Points dropped. (Kakashi-Papa's Life Points: 600)

"Turn end" I told him.

"Then it's my turn" Kakashi-Papa said "I draw!"

With this he drew his card, I saw the smile on his face as he looked at the card. He turned to me "I'm sorry Kasumi, this Duel has been fun but it's over as my Gold Sarcophagus activates giving me the card I removed from play."

I knew what was coming. In his hands Kakashi-Papa held the five cards he needed to win.

"It's been fun Kasumi and you had me going there in the last round but you're time is up. For I've gathered up five special pieces of the only unbeatable monster in the game of Duel Monsters...Exodia!"

With this he placed all five Monster cards on his Duel Disk. Then the area changed into a massive puzzle. First to come out were two arms which freaked Naruto out "Those arms are huge!"

Then came the legs, and finally Exodia's head came out.

"He's huge!" Naruto shouted "What is he?"

"Exodia, the Forbidden One" Hanabi told him "The only unbeatable monster...And Kakashi-Sensei has it. Haku's right Lady Kasumi's lost this one."

"Why is that?" Naruto asked.

"You'll see" Kakashi-Papa told Naruto then he turned to Exodia "Now Exodia, end this with Obliteration!"

Exodia formed a huge yellow destructive energy blast at my side of the board. It wiped out both Olympian Dragon and Hercules ending the Duel in my first defeat. (My Life Points: 0)

"She just lost!" Naruto shouted in dismay "My sis lost? Impossible."

"It's possible" I told him "I'm just glad it was Kakashi-Papa I lost to."

I turned to him as he smiled "If you want a rematch with me anytime soon dear, I'll accept."

"Same here" I told him as we shook hands I wasn't a sore loser at losing. This was my first loss and it was against someone I cared about.

I turned to Naruto "But how did you lose?"

"Exodia" I told him "Is the only unbeatable card, so unbeatable that, if one gets all five pieces during the first round that Duel is automatically decided."

"Wow!" Naruto stated breathless "That was great sis!"

I turned to Kakashi-Papa "Next time if we when we have a rematch, I'll be sure to catch onto your plan."

He winked at me "You nearly had me there, you just needed a bit more time, but your time was up."

This was my first loss but it didn't matter what the outcome of a Duel was just as long as you had fun. And I had fun.

With this we continued our journey.

Aang: It was an excellent Synchro Monster, obviously designed for decks that have Exodia in them. Anyway the next card of the Chapter is...

Hercules the Son of Zeus

Aang: And yet you surprise us with a new Synchro Monster. He was awesome!

Kasumi: Thanks Aang! Now the last Card of the Chapter is found in stores or online shops...Its...

Exodia the Forbidden One

Aang: So that's the card Kakashi defeated you with.

Kasumi: Don't worry Aang, I'll get him next time. I sort of knew what he was up to once he played his first monster and I destroyed it.

Then the two turn to the audiuace: See you next time! (Exits)
