I know that I've slacked down with this story.
But things weren't that easy for me.
And... I wrote more than I planned to write.
Anyways, Enjoy!
Time for the test
It's been a week since the Obelisk blue accident, Alexis and the others dispelled the problem by explaining that Syrus was trapped and that he didn't try to peek. But even with that problem solved, a new problem has arisen.
"Curse you exams…" mumbled Sky as she was preparing in the morning for the promotion exam.
For her, the writing exam wasn't that hard, she knew all the types of Duel Monster Cards, their signification… even some Effect of some rare cards. But the problem was that she tends on losing her senses during the exams. She could learn an entire book, but if this book is mentioned during a test, she would mix all the information about it. Shizuku on the other hand, was preparing since the day after the accident. She did nothing apart preparing herself.
"I just hope that I will remain calm and will NOT lose it like always…" again, mumbled Sky "I should have tried to learn with Shizu"
A knock in the door brought her to turn and reply with "Who is it?"
"It's me" said the voice of Shizuku "I came to help you with the studies"
Sky rushed to the door and open it with joy as she said "My knight in shining armor!"
Shizuku chuckled and said "As I thought, you really need help with that"
"I know everything" replied Sky as she sighed in desperation "The problem is that I tend to lose my way during a test"
"Do you try to distress?" asked Shizuku.
"How?" asked Sky.
"I don't know" replied Shizuku "breath slowly and read slowly the question. That works for most people"
"Ok…" said nervously Sky.
"Don't worry" said Shizuku while smiling before looking at her watch "Its look like the time"
"For the test?!" yelled Sky, afraid that she didn't see the time fly.
"To change the cards inside my Deck" corrected Shizuku "I always change them the morning, at noon and a little before midnight"
"Wow" commented Sky before asking nervously "Do you think that someone is spying on you?"
"Some people can create counter only by seeing one duel" explained Shizuku "They can analyze your entire fight and come up with strategies. So, if I change my cards three times per day, they wouldn't know how to counter my cards"
"Why do you think that such thing can work?" asked Sky worried about the paranoia of her friend.
"You can't create just one set of cards" replied Shizuku "You need to diverse all your strategies and create counter in order to counter the counters that the enemy may create to counter you"
"Ok…" replied nervously Sky, feeling a little dizzy after the explanation of Shizuku.
"Anyway" she said as she moved out of the room "I'll go and quickly come back so that we can continue the preparations"
"I think that I'll come with you" said Sky while catching up with Shizuku.
Later, both girls were in their way to the class. Sky was still thinking about the amount of card that Shizuku possess, an entire suitcase. But the important thing now, it was the test. Both girls arrived at the class.
"Hey!" called Alexis "I saved you some places"
"Thanks Lexy!" said Sky as she sat next Alexis.
Shizuku only nodded in gratitude before saying to the Obelisk Queen "By the way, did you get the new cards?"
"Nope" replied Alexis "As much as I want to buy them, I don't think that it would change something"
"True" commented Shizuku "Even with the best cards, you won't be best duelist if you don't know how to use them"
"So…" said Sky nervously "You aren't going to buy them?"
"I don't need them" replied Shizuku "My current Deck is what I need"
Professor Banner entered and gave the tests.
"Ok children" said the teacher "You have one hour"
'Calm down' thought Sky 'Just like Shizu said; deep breathing and reading carefully the questions'
15 minutes later, Jaden entered and moved next to Sy, who slept through the test.
"I didn't know this was an oral exam Sy" said Jaden waking Syrus up and making him looking at Jaden "Or maybe next time, sleep would be better than an all night Slifer seance"
"You're here" said Syrus with relief.
"You two want to keep it down?!" asked Chazz with frustration "Some of us plan to pass this test"
"Hey! I always plan on passing" replied Jaden "It just doesn't work out that way"
"Oh Jaden" called Banner "Why don't you come down here and get your exam"
Jaden turned to the teacher and said "Be there in a jiff!"
'He'd better be' commented mentally Alexis 'We're 15 minutes into this thing. He'll be lucky to even finish'
'I do wonder if his mental capacities are as good as his dueling capacities' commented mentally Shizuku.
'Up until now I did a good job and I'm still calm' thought Sky, not noticing that Jaden had just arrived.
'Look at him' commented mentally Bastion 'Tardy and puerile. If he implied himself he could be a great duelist'
Sky then looked at Jaden 'When did he arrived? He wasn't here at the beginning'
'I hope you know what you are doing Jaden' said mentally Alexis.
During the test, both Jaden and Syrus fell asleep.
'I really worry about these two' commented mentally Shizuku before noticing Crowler 'He's plotting something'
"You may be able to dream your way through the written exam Jaden" mumbled Crowler "But when your field test starts believe me, it would be a nightmare" he then glanced at Shizuku's seat and noticed her "That pest is more than annoying, I will make sure that she'll learn to stay at her place, and the field test will be the perfect chance to humiliate her, and Alexis is gonna be the instrument of her humiliation. The girl who won the entrance exam without losing a single Life Point will lose to the Obelisk Queen. And then, there will be hatred between them, and I will have all the time necessary to get rid of that Slacker"
'I have a bad feeling' thought Shizuku as she noticed the grin on Crowler's face.
As the exam ended, Banner asked kindly the class to leave in calm so that they could go buy the new rare cards. They did the opposite as they rushed out of the classroom with a wild speed.
"Sy…" called softly Sky while shaking the blue haired Slifer "Sy…"
"I love you too…" mumbled Syrus in his sleep, freezing Sky.
"Lemme show you how you can wake them" said Shizuku as she approach them. Bastion raised an eyebrow as the warrior duelist took a deep breath and yelled "Detention for both of you!"
The two boys jumped in the air before crashing "What day it is?" asked Syrus.
"The day of the new rare cards" answered Shizuku.
"What?!" replied Syrus "Why did no one woke us?!"
"It's obvious that they wish to have the best cards for the field test" answered Bastion.
"You guys don't want to buy them?" asked Jaden.
"I don't need them" answered Shizuku "My current cards are more than enough"
"S-same here" said Sky, still embarrassed from earlier.
"And one error card and the delicate balance in my Deck would be thrown off" completed Bastion.
"Well I don't mind having more cards" said Syrus as he ran out of the classroom with Jaden.
"Things are really-" began Shizuku before hearing her phone ringing (song: Sabaton – The Final Solution) "Who's that?" she asked herself as she took it out, and recognized the number immediately "Yes?"
"You haven't change, have you?" said a deep male voice.
"What do you want?" she said with venom in her voice.
"Don't be like that my dear" said the man "You have such a beautiful voice, don't waste it by talking like that"
"Creep out Julian!" said Shizuku while razing a little her voice "I already told you to stop calling me!"
The man Julian chuckled and said "I didn't know that the daughter of the owner of Industrial Illusions can be so heartless"
"Don't try me" growled the girl "And before you ask, my answer will still be the same. NO!"
"I know that one day, I will have you" said Julian before laughing.
"GO ROT IN HELL!" yelled Shizuku before violently hanging up and storming out of the classroom.
"What was that?" asked Bastion, curious of the reason that made her yell like that.
"I don't know…" answered Sky, worried about her friend.
Shizuru red with anger 'Damn that creep! How did he get my number anyway!'. She was heading toward the arena, and the anger was written all over her face.
"Hm" a certain blonde girl noticed Shizuku as she was walking "Why is she… angry?"
'Next he'll call me, I won't answer' thought Shizuku not noticing Alexis, "I won't let him get Industrial Illusion…" she mumbled with anger in her voice "I'd rather die again than let him get it…"
'Die again?' asked Alexis 'What happened to her?'
Finally, after noticing Alexis, narrowing her eyes Shizuku said "What. I'm not in a good mood, so be quick"
"I'm… just worried" replied Alexis.
Shizuku sighed and said "Sorry… it's just that someone that I don't want to talk with called me"
"Oh I see" said Alexis "I just hope that it won't affect your duel"
"Thank you for worrying" replied Shizuku "But I'm alright now"
"If you need someone to talk with, I'm here" said Alexis as she squeezed Shizuku's shoulders.
"Thank you…" said Shizuku as she smiled to the Obelisk Queen.
"Let's go to Duel Fields" said Alexis as both girls moved away.
"I wonder if Shizu is alright" mumbled Sky.
Later
At the moment, the light blue haired girl was waiting for her opponent, a Slifer blond boy, second year student arrived and looked at the girl.
"Are you… my opponent?" asked nervously Sky.
The boy nodded and activated his Duel Disk, making Sky to do the same
"Duel!"
Sky: 4000
Slifer Student: 4000
(Play From Shadows II)
"I'll go first" said the red Slifer as he draws a card "I summon Mad Lobster in Attack Postion" and a big red lobster appeared in the arena.
Mad Lobster (Level 3) 1700 / 1000
"I set a card then end my turn"
"My turn then" said Sky drawing a card 'I don't have any strong monster now, all I can do is summoning Apprentice Priest and… wait a second, I can do that too' thought Sky before summoning her Apprentice Priest "I summon Apprentice Priest in Attack Position" and her priest, with his white robe, his cross and his bible appeared in the Field.
Apprentice Priest (Level 2) 500 / 1700
"I then play March Of The Crusade. I can tribute one Light monster in my side of the field and Special Summon one Light Monster from my hand with no cost" said Sky "And I choose to tribute my Apprentice Priest and Special Summon Sandalphon in Attack Position" a big angel with white wings and wearing a golden armor appeared in the field.
Sandalphon (Level 8) 2700 / 2500
"I activate his Effect, by removing one card from the play, I can Special Summon 1 Light and 1 Dark level 4 or lower monsters from my Deck. And I choose Succubus and The Knight Crusader" Her knight and a female demon with black tight risky cloths appeared on the field, alongside the angel.
The Knight Crusader (Level 4) 1700 / 1500
Succubus (Level 4) 1400 / 1600
"Now I play Polymerization and fuse both my Succubus and my knight in order to Summon my Demonic Knight in Attack Positon" a knight with black wings and a pitch black armor and a sword appeared in Sky's field.
Demonic Knight (Level 7) 2600 / 2700
"Wow" commented a student.
"That Slacker will be annihilated in no time" said an Obelisk blue boy.
"With those two monsters, she will surly win" said a third student.
"Its look like Sky is having fun" said Shizuku as she entered.
"I truly pity her opponent" said Alexis, following Shizuku "It must be hard for him to concentrate with all those people discouraging him"
Back to Sky.
"I attack with my Demonic Knight! Go Dark Slasher!" stated Sky as her knight thrown a ray of dark energy from his sword.
"I activate Waboku" said the Slifer student "Sorry, but I'm planning to ace my exam"
"I set a card then end my turn" said Sky placing a card.
The Slifer student drawn a card then grimaced "I change the position of my Mad Lobster into Defense Postision, then I set a monster, then play the Field Spell Umi" the stage became ocean "I then set two cards then end my turn"
Mad Lobster (Level 3) 1900 / 1200
Sky silently took a card, "I attack with my Demonic Knight! Go Dark Slasher!" and her black knight tried to attack again with his ray of dark energy, destroying the Water attribute monster "all the monsters destroyed by my Demonic Knight are removed from the game and he inflicts Piercing Damage"
Sky: 4000
Slifer Student: 2600
"And now! Sandalphon, attack with Shining Light" and the angel created a pillar of light under the set monster before revealing Penguin Soldier.
Penguin Soldier (Level 2) 950 / 700
"I activate my monster's Flip Effect" stated the Slifer student "I can return 2 monsters to your hand, and I choose the two of your monsters"
"I cancel that with my Trap Card Deus Vult In The Name Of God! By sending on Light monster to the Graveyard, I can cancel an Effect and banish the card and I choose Shield Of The Crusade" a ray of light engulfed Penguin Soldier leaving the Slifer student unprotected "Now that your monster is out of the way, I can redirect the attack to you!" and the pillar of light appeared under the student, taking his last Life Points away.
Sky: 4000
Slifer Student: 0000
"I won! I won!" said Sky with joy while jumping in the air.
"H-how could I have lost?" said the Slifer student.
(Stop Track)
"Now" said Crowler as he appeared in the scene, grinning "Would Shizuku Miniwa and Alexis Rhodes come and prepare themselves"
Both girls glance at each other before shrugging.
"No holding back?" asked Shizuku.
"Hell yeah!" answered Alexis "I've been dreaming of this duel since the day I first saw you"
Both girls positioned themselves and activated their Duel Disk.
"Check this!" said a boy "The Queen VS the Maiden!"
"The Duel of the day!" said another boy.
"Go Alexis!" cheered another boy.
"You can beat her Shizuku!" said another one.
'This is perfect' thought Crowler 'Now that's the Duel will start, the hatred that will become the thing that will keep that pest occupied. And meanwhile, I can think of any plan to get rid of that slacker!'
"Duel!"
Shizuku: 4000
Alexis: 4000
(Play Sabaton – Last Dying Breath)
"I'll go first if you don't mind" said Alexis, taking her sixth card "I summon Etoile Cyber in Attack Position" a red haired woman in a red outfit appeared
Etoile Cyber (Level 4) 1200 / 1600
"I then set a card then end my turn"
"It's my turn then" said Shizuku as she drawn "I Summon my Warden in Attack Position"
The Warden (Level 4) 2000 / 1500
"I then set a card" said Shizuku as she placed a card "…and I will attack! Go with Vortex Attack!"
The knight charged and was about to hit his opposite monster, but was stopped.
"I activate Double Passe!" declared Alexis intending to receive the hit instead of her monster "I take the damage and negate the destruction of my monster"
The knight charged Alexis and slashed her.
Shizuku: 4000
Alexis: 2000
"And now! I can attack you directly!" said Alexis as Etoile Cyber flew past the knight and kicked the Cold Maiden "And my Etoile Cyber gain 600 Attack Points when she attack you directly"
Etoile Cyber (Level 4) 1800 / 1600
Shizuku: 2200
Alexis: 2000
Etoile Cyber (Level 4) 1200 / 1600
Shizuku chuckled and said "You are the first one who lowered my Life Points by battle in this school"
"I take that as a compliment" replied Alexis while smiling.
"I will not make you wait as I end my turn with this card set" said Shizuku while placing a card.
"You are so kind" said Alexis while taking a card "I activate the Spell Card Prima Light and sacrifice Etoile Cyber in order to Summon Cyber Prima in Attack Mode" a white haired woman appeared.
Cyber Prima (Level 6) 2300 / 1600
"And since you don't have any Spell Card on the field, her Effect will not be activated" said Alexis before pointing the knight of Shizuku "But your monster is sill weaker! So go get rid of it!"
"As much fun I have" began Shizuku while revealing her set card "I'm going to activate my Trap Card Support From The Backlines. It allows me to return one targeted monster into my hand, and Special Summon 1 monster of the same Type. And by returning my Warden, I can Special Summon one Warrior Type monster, and I choose Saber – Artoria Pendragon in Attack Mode" a blonde young woman with green eyes and a regal blue dress, holding an invisible sword appeared in Shizuku's side of the field.
Saber – Artoria Pendragon (Level 8) 3000 / 3000
"I anticipated the fact that you would like to get rid of my Warden since his Effect allows him to count as two when sacrificed to Summon a Warrior Type monster" said Shizuku while grinning.
"I should have known" replied Alexis, after calling back the attack, while placing a card in her Spell / Trap Area.
"Don't worry" said Shizuku while drawing a card "You are doing fine" She then looked at her cards "I then play Pot Of Greed and draw two more cards" she looked at her new cards and grinned "Do you know what's more scary than facing the King Of Knights?"
Alexis looked at her with confusion and answered "Facing the Queen of Knights…?"
"No" replied Shizuku "Facing an evil King Of Knights. Because I play The Corruption Of The Grail! This card allows me, by banishing Saber – Artoria Pendragon and by paying the half of my Life Points, to Summon from my Hand or my Deck Alter Saber – Artoria Pendragon" a black mud fell on Saber – Artoria Pendragon and revealed the same monster, but with a dark version of the armor, and her eyes became yellow, and the sword was visible. A black sword with red marks on it.
Shizuku: 1100
Alexis 2000
Alter Saber – Artoria Pendragon (Level 12) 4500 / 3500
"A Level 12 Monster?!" asked a boy with shock.
"And look at the Attack Points!" said another one.
Alexis could only stare in shock at the new monster. 4500 Attack Points. Enough to reap her from her last points.
"Don't worry" said Shizuku "It would be over quick. Now, attack with Excalibur Morgana!" Alter Saber began on charging energy around her dark sword, an energy that was felt by everyone, even Sheppard felt it. That dark energy.
"I play my Trap Card Ring Of Destruction" declared Alexis "By selecting a monster in Attack Mode I can destroy it and inflict the Attack Points as damage to both of us! And I choose my Cyber Prima!"
A ring with flames appeared on Cyber Prima neck before exploding, lowering the Life Points of both girls.
Shizuku: 0000
Alexis: 0000
(Stop Track)
Everyone was shocked. The match ended up in a draw, a very tight match. The two top girls of Duel Academy. The skills displayed was outstanding, even Sheppard was speechless. The only thing that was heard was the laughter of Shizuku.
"Man that was a good fight!" she said still laughing "I see now that your title isn't given"
Alexis chuckled and said "The same could be said to you"
Both girls left the stage with the acclamation of everyone, especially boys, and waited for the next matches.
When it was time for Jaden, everyone was shocked, he had to face Chazz from the Obelisk blue dorm.
Shizuku narrowed her eyes and mumbled with venom "I knew that Crowler would pull something like this"
"I have to duel an Obelisk?!" stated Jaden with shock "And its Chazz?!"
"That's right Jaden" replied Crowler "Since you always talk such a big game, I pulled some stings for you so you've got the challenge you deserve! So, congratulations! You'll be dueling one of the top-ranked students of the school! What an honor! I certainly hope that you were able to stack a lot of today's rare cards so that your deck is up to date! What's wrong? Aren't you going to thank me?"
'Something is telling me that Crowler had done more than that' thought Shizuku 'There's no way that putting Jaden against Chazz is his only plan'
'I've got a bad feeling about this' thought Syrus.
'This is clearly a trap. Only an idiot would agree to it' thought Bastion.
"I'll do it!" said Jaden, shocking everyone "Alright, Chazz! Get your game on! Let's finish what we started at Obelisk Arena!"
"Indeed" added Crowler "In front of the whole school too, where everyone can watch"
"Yeah, watch you get slammed by me" said Chazz with a grin.
"Duel!"
Jaden: 4000
Chazz: 4000
"No excuses this time, Chazz!" said Jaden.
"Bring it on, Slifer slacker!" taunted Chazz.
"Oh, it is ON!" replied Jaden.
Jaden quickly drew a card, recognizing it to be Winged Kuriboh. "Well, it's my favorite furry friend!" 'Kuriboh, you're in for a treat! We're about to rain down some serious skills on Chazz!' "You remember this guy, don't cha, Chazz? From our first match? Elemental Hero Clayman!" Clayman kneeled down, taking a defensive position.
Elemental Hero Clayman (Level 4) 800 / 2000
Everyone gasped at how high his defensive monster's Defense Points were.
"He'd like to get reacquainted" added Jaden with a smirk.
"Not after he sees what I've got for him! Don't think that that oversized pile of pebbles has a chance against me, Jaden! Or against this!" replied Chazz.
Drawing a card, he tought 'Appreciate the rare card, Crowler' he then said "Fresh off the present! Meet Magical Mallet!"
"What's that?" asked Jaden.
"A redo" answered Chazz before beginning in explaining "All the cards in my hand that I don't want, I put back in my deck, then I shuffle and redraw! Pretty cool don't cha think?"
"How?!" asked Syrus, shocked by the card "A rare card on the first draw?!"
"And a very dangerous one at that" added Bastion "Now Chazz will essentially be able to pick which cards he wants, and which he doesn't"
"I haven't gotten to the best part!" said Chazz, redrawing before revealing Magical Mallet in his hand. "See Jaden, I got to reshuffle Magical Mallet too! So, if I draw it again, which I just did, I can play it again and again! And that comes in handy when I'm looking for this! V-Tiger Jet! Sharpen your claws for Attack Mode!" A yellow-colored jet-like tiger roared onto the field as it was in mid-air, using the boosters on his back to help float. The dark-colored green wings spread out, and his claws automatically popped out and sharpened.
V-Tiger Jet (Level 4) 1600 / 1800
"And there's a lot more where what came from!" Chazz wasn't quite finished as he activated a Spell Card. "Check out the magic of Frontline Base! It lets me summon a Level 4 or below Monster this turn! And I have just the one! I play W-Wing Catapult in Attack Mode!" Zooming onto the field, a big blue jet-like monster burst into the field right alongside V-Tiger Jet.
W-Wing Catapult (Level 4) 1300 / 1500
"Gentlemen, start your engines! Now, merge!" The two monsters flew upwards before attaching to each other "Alright! The VW-Tiger Catapult!"
VW-Tiger Catapult (Level 6) 2000 / 2100
"But wait! I'm not done yet! 'Cause he still has his special ability!" added Chazz, still grinning.
"That's not good!" said Jaden.
"Gimme a break! Is this guy's turn gonna end sometime this century?" complained Syrus.
"By sending a card to the Graveyard, I can force one of your monsters into Attack Mode!" explained Chazz as Clayman was standing up "So after this heat seeker flip from my Tiger Catapult, your Life Points are toast!" and the VW-Tiger Catapult launched missiles toward the earth skinned hero.
Jaden: 2800
Chazz: 4000
"I knew that something was wrong" commented Shizuku "Those card were supposed to be included with the new rare cards"
"What do you mean?" asked Sky.
"Those cards are from the VWXYZ Deck" explained Shizuku "A Deck based on Union Monsters. And, if my prediction is right, Jaden is in grave danger"
"What?!" said Sky and Syrus with shock.
"How do you know that?" asked Bastion.
"In the past, I dueled someone who used that Deck" answered Shizuku "All I can say about this Deck is that the amount of luck needed against it is… um… legendary"
"My goodness!" said sarcastically Crowler "Perhaps Jaden can't play with the big boys after all! I guess he's not as good as everyone thinks!"
Sheppard on the other hand didn't said a thing and kept his focus on the Duel.
"I'll finish up with one card face down" said Chazz as he placed one card in his Spell Trap area.
"Yeah, go ahead and finish up!" Jaden said. "'Cause I'm just gettin' warmed up! Speaking of, here's someone who can really turn up the heat! Elemental Hero Sparkman in Defense Mode! And I'll throw down a facedown!"
"Not much he can do with all the rares Chazz seems to have," commented Bastion.
"It's just not fair!" said Syrus.
"Crowler did pulled a lot of stings for this one" said Shizuku while narrowing her eyes "And I hope that he doesn't have the others as well"
'This is a complete mismatch!' commented mentally Alexis 'How can Jaden fight back when he doesn't know what he's fighting?!'
"Ready for round 2, you Slifer slime?" taunted Chazz eagerly, drawing a card. "Well, X-Head Cannon is! And, thanks to Frontline's magic, so is Z-Metal Tank!" a monster colored with blue and yellow and with matching cannons along with another yellow monster that's crab-like appeared near each other.
X- Head Cannon (Level 4) 1800 / 1500
Z-Metal Tank (Level 4) 1500 / 1300
"Don't tell me" Mumbled Shizuku while having a bad feeling.
"Now I play my facedown card! Call of the Haunted!" yelled Chazz "In case you slept through that class as well, it allows me to bring back a monster from my Graveyard! And I have Y-Dragon Head! It's what I discarded from my Catapult's special ability!" a dragon like red robotic monster appeared thanks to the effect of the facedown of Chazz
Y-Dragon Head (Level 4) 1500 / 1600
"And now I combine them all to form XYZ-Dragon Cannon!"
XYZ-Dragon Cannon (Level 8) 2800 / 2600
"Now Chazz has two monsters out with over 2000 Attack Points each!" commented Bastion.
"It's not over yet" said Shizuku remembering all her previous duels, especially the ones including those monsters.
"But wait Jaden! There's more!" said Chazz "Actually, less! Sure, they say two's better than one, but I'd have to disagree! Especially if the one in question is the ultimate VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon!"
VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon (Level 8) 3000 / 2800
"Makes your Sparkman look like a heap of trash, huh? Or at least it did!"
"Tch, this is what I hate about this monster" said angrily Shizuku "Now with his effect, will destroy Sparkman"
And as Shizuku said it, the blue hero disappeared in a whirlwind.
"There's no honor in that" complained Shizuku "Thankfully, Jaden has still one face down"
And as she said it, Jaden activated his Face down, A Hero Emerges.
"What does that card do?" asked Sky.
"Chazz will have to choose a card in Jaden's hand. And if it's a monster, he will Special Summon it on the field" explained Shizuku.
And fortunately for Jaden, Chazz picked Burstinatrix, and Jaden summoned her in Defense Mode.
Elemental Hero Burstinatrix (Level 3) 1200 / 800
"He's at least safe" sighed Sky.
"He's not completely safe" replied Shizuku "When the VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon attacks, he can choose the position of the target"
"What?! That's not fair!" said Sky.
And everyone saw Burstinatrix getting into Attack Mode when the VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon launched his attack.
Jaden: 1000
Chazz: 4000
"Aw, what's the matter, Jaden?" cooed Chazz mockingly. "Having some test anxiety? Don't worry! It'll be over soon!"
"No way, Chazz!" decided Jaden, glaring at him. "I've got a whole army of vicious Monsters in my deck just waiting to get at you! This isn't over; it's just barely started! My draw!" as Jaden took out the card he recognized it. "What do you think, Winged Kuriboh?" whispered Jaden.
Winged Kuriboh squealed in return.
"Well, alright, if you say so" replied Jaden "I summon winged Kuriboh in Defense Mode!"
And the winged fluffy monster appeared on the field, making all the girls, except Alexis and Shizuku, squeal at his cuteness.
Winged Kuriboh (Level 1) 200 / 300
"And I throw down a face down! That's it"
"That's it?!" asked Syrus with Shock "All Jaden's been doing is playing defense!"
'Something tells me that Jaden will turn this situation in his advantage' thought Shizuku 'He sure does it every time'
"All done, huh?" snickered Chazz. "Good! Because now I can cook that Kuriboh, and I like mine well-done! There's about to be a fried fur ball on the field, loser!"
"You don't scare me" taunted Jaden.
"No big deal! I don't have to! That's his job! Dragon Catapult Cannon, attack!" replied Chazz as his monster blasted a laser from one of his cannons.
"Alright, secret weapon time" mumbled Jaden "I sacrifice two cards and activate Transcendent Wings!" angel like wings appeared on Kuriboh's back, deflecting the attack.
"It can't be!" said Chazz with shock
"Nailed it" commented Shizuku with a smirk.
"Oh, yes it can! Transcendant Wings has evolved Winged Kuriboh into a Level 10 Monster! And it gets better too! By sacrificing himself, Kuriboh destroys all Monsters in Attack Mode and deflects their Attack Points as damage to you!" explained Jaden "Kuriboh, why don't you go ahead and show him how it works?"
The laser fired upon Winged Kuriboh blasted back towards VWXYZ - Dragon Catapult Cannon, annihilating him without a single trace left.
Jaden: 1000
Chazz: 1000
"Lucky punk..." grunted Chazz.
"Lucky?" replieded Jaden. "Nah, I just happen to have a soft spot for old ladies. But not for you, Chazz. And that's too bad, because with 1000 Life Points apiece, and my turn coming up, all I need is the right Monster, and you'll be finished! Here goes something!" recognizing the card, Jaden smirked "I summon the Elemental Hero Avian!"
Elemental Hero Avian (Level 3) 1000 / 1000
"Attack!" commended Jaden and the green hero flew to reap the remaining Life Points of Chazz.
Jaden: 1000
Chazz: 0000
"Jaden did it!" yelled Syrus happily with the crowd.
"I told ya that this Kuriboh can change the tide of a battle!" said Shizuku.
Crowler's jaw dropped as he sputtered, "T-that's impossible! Not with all the rare cards I've given to Chazz! T-this simply can't be!"
Turning to Crowler, Sheppard seemed a little confused "Rare cards? What exactly are you talking about, Crowler?"
Crowler shrieked, completely forgetting that Sheppard was right next to him. "N-nothing! I-I have to go grade some tests!"
Receiving the acclamation of everyone, Jaden turned to Chazz and said "That's game! Unless you want to duel again!"
"That was well-played, Jaden!" called Sheppard through the intercom "Not in the history of our dear Academy has a Slifer dueled an Obelisk during these exams! Well, except for some people. Jaden, not only did you hold your own, but you won! Your courage against overwhelming odds has been inspiring! It is with great pride that I grant you permission to Ra Yellow! Good job!"
"A well deserved reward for a well deserved duelist" said Shizuku as she approached them.
"Good show, Jaden! Allow me to be the first to welcome you to the Ra dorm!" said Bastion, holding out his hand.
Jaden took it and shaking it "Thanks!"
'This boy is surly the Lu Bu of this world' thought Shizuku, remembering the warrior who was acting as a brother to hr during her previous life 'I'm going to enjoy it'
I tried my best in that.
and the Slifer student is the NPC you have to duel in the first exam of the game.
