Sorry for being lazy.
It's just that I just finished my exams, and had to take care of my grandmother.
anyway... Enjoy.
Formula for Success
Both Shizuku and Sky were at the field with the other girls, playing volleyball.
"Come on Mindy!" yelled Jasmine "We can beat them!"
"Yeah!" replied Mindy while serving the ball.
Shizuku simply grabbed the ball and threw it in a tree, where a bunch of Obelisk students were hiding in.
"My head" groaned one of them before noticing that all the girls were staring at them.
"Euh… hi" said another Obelisk blue nervously.
"You have two choices" said Shizuku as a dangerous aura was surrounding her "You can either choose two of you that will be going to Duel me, or you'll face me and Sky in a match of volley"
"Aren't you a little nice to them?" asked a girl.
"If the fact that if they lose they will be expelled due to being caught somewhere they shouldn't be is nice, then you can say that I'm nice" replied Shizuku "And, I'm sure that they will be doing their best in whatever they will choose"
"You're starting to become scary big sis" commented Sky.
"So, what are you going to choose?" asked Shizuku as she was glaring at them.
"The… we are going to choose the Duel" replied the Obelisk boy.
"I really wish that you start learning your lesson" said Alexis with a sigh "This is the third time you are caught in the private sport area that we have-"
"Wait a second" interrupted Sky as she began to blush "F-from when you were here?"
That question caused all the girls to stare at them with dead eyes, causing the boys to feel some sort of deadly aura coming from all the girls.
"Can we use our right to stay quite?" asked another boy nervously.
"Forget the Duel" said Shizuku while smiling "Let's play a more better game, it's called 'Dodge the ball or you will get bruises for a long time'"
Let's say that the boys learned that Shizuku can become a demon. No, she can be scarier than a demon.
Later in the classroom, those Obelisk boys were sitting in their places with bandages and their uniform in a bad stat.
"They are pitiful" said Chazz while looking at them before ordering "Foot rub and ice tea, now"
"Get them yourself" replied an Obelisk boy.
"What was that?!" said Chazz, feeling insulted by their change in attitude toward him.
"Doesn't he know?"
"Guess not"
"Know what?!" asked Chazz.
"Chazz! Where do you think you're sitting?" asked another Obelisk boy while approaching Chazz.
"My seat, obviously!" replied Chazz.
"Sorry, but that not your seat anymore, now move!" said the Obelisk boy.
"What are you talking about?!" asked Chazz furiously "Of course that's my seat it says so right here" he then noticed that his name isn't there anymore.
"Sorry Chazz" said the Obelisk boy before pointing where the Ra and Slifer students sit "But you were moved way over there"
"No way!" replied Chazz, not believing his ears "This is all wrong! I don't belong over there with those losers!" he then turned to Crowler, who was on his way to his desk "Dr. Crowler! Tell everyone this is a mistake! Tell them I belong up here!"
Crowler turned to him, with a blacken eye, and said "But you don't, and you haven't since you lost that Duel to euh… Who was it now? Ah yes I remember, Jaden Yuki, a SLIFER! This is why tomorrow you will Duel Bastion Misawa, and if you lose to him as well, you two will switch dorms"
"You mean… I'll become… a Ra Yellow duelist?" asked Chazz, shocked by the bombshell that was thrown by Crowler.
"Yes, very good" replied Crowler while clapping "Now, if only you could Duel as well as you listen" this last comment made everyone to laugh at Chazz as he rushed out of the Classroom.
However, a Ra wasn't laughing "What do you think buddy?" he asked, before that an orange beast like creature with blue jeans and red baskets. He had green eyes and was grinning. The creature said something incomprehensible "I don't think that he's thinking about his stomach" the creature then replied with something "I think that you need to keep an eye on him" the creature made a salute then disappeared "I need to warn Bastion about him"
"You can also see them?" asked Shizuku, who was sitting behind him.
"I take that you can also see the Duel Spirits" replied the boy "the name's Droy, Droy Kinderson"
"Shizuku Miniwa" said Shizuku before noticing the blonde Duel Spirit "What's on your mind Tanya"
The blonde girl turned to Shizuku and said "There's something off about that. There's no way that someone like Crowler will promote someone just like that"
"What's your theory?" asked Droy.
"I say that he wishes to train him and make him Duel that Jaden boy" replied Tanya.
"The great Tanya Von Degurechaff is showing signs of intelligence, that's something" commented sarcastically Sylvanas "Do you have good grades at school?"
"At least I'm giving a hypothesis" replied Tanya before smirking "Unlike you, rotting maggot keeper bag"
"Are they always like that?" asked Droy with a sweatdrop.
"You'll get used to it" replied Shizuku before shaking Sky to wake her.
After class, Shizuku was walking to the library before being stopped by an unexpected person.
"Hey, girly!" called Chazz as he approached her "You got a minute?"
"No" replied Shizuku coldly before resuming her walk to the library.
"Who do you think you are?!" asked Chazz with anger "You have no right to ignore me like that!"
"Defeat me in a Duel, and then we can talk" replied Shizuku, still cold.
"I'll make you regret saying that" growled Chazz.
In the Duel Arena, Shizuku and Chazz were standing in position.
"I have a proposition" said Chazz with a grin "If I win, I will use your deck for my Duel with that Ra reject"
"And if you lose?" asked Shizuku.
"There's no way that I can lose" said Chazz as he activated his Duel Disc "I am the number one here after all"
"I see that arrogance is your way to talk" commented Shizuku while activating her Duel Disk "Putting you in your place will be a pleasure"
"Duel!"
Shizuku: 4000
Chazz: 4000
"I'll take the first turn if you don't mind" said Chazz while taking a card "I summon X-Head Cannon in Attack Mode!"
X- Head Cannon (Level 4) 1800 / 1500
"And I end my turn"
"Please, don't think that I'm Jaden" said Shizuku lazily while taking her card "First, I activate Double Summon, which means that I can Normal Summon two times this turn. Now, I summon Advancing Soldier" a man in military like cloths, holding a rifle appeared.
Advancing Soldier (Level 4) 1700 / 1200
"And thanks to his Effect, I can now Special Summon one Level 4 or bellow Warrior - Type monster from my hand, and I choose the Warden, in Attack Mode"
The Warden (Level 4) 2000 / 1500
"Now I tribute the Advancing Soldier to Summon Saber - Okita Souji" a light blond haired girl wearing a Taisho-style Kimono that consists of a Hakama and long leather boots appeared in Shizuku's field.
Saber – Okita Souji (Level 6) 2500 / 1900
"I think that you know my next move right?" she said coldly "Souji! Cut that robot in two!"
"By your orders Master" replied Souji before drawing her sword and obeyed the order given to her.
Shizuku: 4000
Chazz: 3300
"Warden! Get him with Vortex Attack!" the knight shoulder bashed Chazz before slashing him violently.
Shizuku: 4000
Chazz: 1300
"I set a card then end my turn" completed Shizuku while giving the Obelisk boy a look of pity.
"Don't look at me like that" growled Chazz while drawing a card, but he immediately smirked when he saw the card.
"I activate my trap!" yelled Shizuku, startling Chazz "With Threatening Roar, you need to pass your Battle Phase"
"You just got one more turn" said Chazz annoyingly "Firstly, I play Monster Reborn and bring back my X-Head Cannon, and then, I tribute him, and all the cards in my hand, to summon Inferno Incinerator!" the robot was engulfed in fire before his explosion. A spider like creature appeared in the place of X-Head Cannon.
Inferno Incinerator (Level 6) 2800 / 1800
"And it gets better" added Chazz "For every monster in your field, He gains 200 Attack points"
Inferno Incinerator (Level 6) 3200 / 1800
"Ready to yield?"
"You need more" said Shizuku while taking a card "I tribute my Warden and summon Berserker – Lü Bu Fèngxiān" a large man with short red hair with red feathers on top of his head and white blank plain eyes appeared with a roar. He wears a red Chinese general uniform including large armor and thick fur trimming at the collar and gloves.
Berserker – Lü Bu Fèngxiān (Level 8) 3500 / 3000
"Master…" called Souji with worries before asking "are you sure about that?"
"Don't worry" replied Shizuku "I'm sure that he will behave"
"What the hell is this!" yelled Chazz as he noticed that Berserker – Lü Bu Fèngxiān was staring at him with murderous intent "Why looking at me like that?!"
Shizuku ignored him and said "I activate the Effect of Saber – Okita Souji. If there's a monster stronger than her, I can inflict you 1000 Damage Points directly" Okita sheathed her sword before appearing behind Chazz as his Life Points dropped.
Shizuku: 4000
Chazz: 300
"I think that Berserker will end this fight" said Shizuku "I tribute 1000 Life Points to declare an attack with Berserker – Lü Bu Fèngxiān. Finish this with The Warriors Of Guan Yu!" Berserker slashed Inferno Incinerator five times before summoning a black bow and aimed at the spider-like creature before launching the attack (His ultimate attack in Fate / Extra).
Shizuku: 3000
Chazz: 0000
"First learn how to respect yourself, then you can learn how to properly Duel" said Shizuku while she was leaving the stadium.
In the entrance of the Ra dorms, Bastion was accompanied by Jaden and Syrus.
"Alright, alright" said Jaden "Maybe it wasn't a fail Bastion"
"Jaden" called Syrus "Over the center fence field usually isn't"
"Look" said Bastion while showing them his baseball bat "I play like I duel; with formulas. See, I find that science, statistic, geometry… they play a role in everything we do in life"
"Still writing in everything you see?" questioned a black hared boy with sharp green eyes "I thought that you were old enough to use a computer"
"And I thought that you know that my room means my personal space, and I can do whatever I want to do with my belongings" replied bastion with a serious tone before smiling "It's nice to see you again Droy"
"Who's that?" asked Syrus.
"His name's Droy, he is a second year student" explained Bastion to the Silfer duelists.
"Nice to meet ya" said Jaden friendly "The name's Jaden and this little guy is Syrus"
"Likewise" replied Droy before turning to Bastion "I take that you are going to paint the walls of your room, again"
"Indeed" nodded Bastion "That's why I asked Jaden to come here"
"Good luck then" said Droy before entering the building.
"What was that about painting?" asked Syrus.
"I'll tell you everything when we get inside" said Bastion while getting the dorm.
"I'm bored…" complained Sky while taking a walk in the forest, she then began to think about the day of the Tag Duel.
(Flashback)
"I can't believe we won…" sighed Syrus with relief "But I still can't believe that we need to do a report"
Strangely calm Sky looked around and dragged Syrus in a room.
"Hey! What giv-" protested Syrus before getting a surprise that he didn't knew how to deal with it.
A kiss from Sky, before that Syrus could understand anything, Sky tightened her grip on the boy.
"I think that makes it official then" said Sky with a gentle smile "Thank you for giving me the courage that I needed"
Syrus was totally frozen.
"I'm sorry, but I need to return to the dorm, the report won't write itself you know?" she said before leaving the boy
(End Flashback)
"I wonder if I wasn't too pushy…" wondered Sky before receiving a call from Shizuku.
"Are you busy now?" asked Shizuku.
"No, I'm not" answered Sky.
"Good" mumbled Shizuku before saying "I need you to go to the Ra Dorm and warn Bastion to keep an eye, because I'm sure that Chazz will try to do something, also try to hide your cards, knowing his type, I'm sure that he'll try to take them"
"O-ok" replied Sky before rushing at the dorm of the Ra duelists.
Later in the Ra Dorm, Sky entered Bastion's room only to get splashed by a little white paint all over her face and hand and fell on her back, giving her… a somewhat suggestive image to both Bastion and Syrus, who turned with red faces, meanwhile Jaden…
"Hey, you okay?" asked Jaden, helping Sky to get up.
"Yeah…" replied Sky while looking at herself "Now I'm dirty, I need to remove this before that it sticks on me"
"Yeah…" added Jaden unconsciously "That stuff surly can be stinky if left on you"
At this point, the nose of Syrus began to bleed.
"I thought that you were painting the walls, not throwing it over yourselves" said Sky while trying to find something to take the paint of her.
"We just caught carried away" said Jaden before noticing that both his friends were turning their back to them "What's wrong guys?"
"N-n-n-nothing" replied Syrus while trying to hide the blood coming out of his nose.
"S-so what is the reason for you to come here?" asked Bastion awkwardly.
"Just to give you a warning that Shizu wanted me to pass you" answered Sky after cleaning herself.
"About what?" asked Bastion with curiosity as he turned.
"She said that Chazz may try to do something" answered Sky "He even tried to take her cards so that he can use them in the Duel tomorrow"
"What?!" yelled both Jaden and Syrus surprised and shocked by what was told to them the blue haired girl.
"Is that so?" said Bastion with a straight face.
"I think that's it" said Sky "But since I'm here, I'll help"
"Cool!" said Jaden While giving a thumb up.
Bastion only nodded happily before returning to painting the room.
Later, after finishing the painting, Sky decided to return to her dorm, but felt like someone was watching her.
"W-who's here?!" she asked while trying to hide her fear "I-I'm warning you, I-I'm dangerous" no one responded "Maybe it was my imagination…"
"She's the one" said a red haired woman after making sure that Sky was away "I need to make sure that the other one don't interfere before that the bait is in place"
With Shizuku, she was meditating, talking to her past self.
"Do you really think that's the life that you should have?" asked Yan Pin "That we should have?"
"If there was a choice where I would not fight just to die again, then I will gladly take it" answered Shizuku "Beside, the era of sword fight is over. Nowadays, there are more simple and peaceful manners to resolve problems"
"A stupid game based on how lucky you are" growled Yan Pin "No talent, no discipline just luck"
"And you think that killing is better?" asked Shizuku "I still remember the dreams and the nightmares we had, unlike now. So, did you enjoyed the 'beautiful' dreams we had? Or maybe being in an era where a card game rules everything without bloodshed is better?"
"Tsk, always trying to escape" mumbled Yan Pin "I think that you need to be remembered of who we are"
"It's true that we are the same" commented Shizuku "But there's a difference that you don't see; you are a ghost of the past, someone still stick with the idea that war and violence is the answer to any problem"
"We are a warrior" replied Yan Pin "We live for the war"
"We were" countered Shizuku "Do you really think that a single person can create a massive war, without help?"
"Screw you" grumbled Yan Pin "You are just afraid"
Shizuku ignored her and decided to return to the real world and noticed that it was nightfall.
"I wonder… if I shouldn't be dead" mumbled Shizuku with sadness "A monster like me, shouldn't be alive"
A knock in her door snapped her from her thoughts. Shaking those ideas out of her mind, she opened the door and greeted Alexis.
"A-Alexis, what are you doing here?" she asked "Do you need help?"
"I was just going for a walk, and I was wondering if you'd like to join me" replied Alexis with a smile "I noticed that you enjoy the walks"
Shizuku's heart was racing after hearing Alexis's words "S-sure"
Meanwhile, in the Ra dorms, a certain Obelisk duelist entered the dorm and approached Bastion's room. He then noticed the desk, and Bastion's cards on it
"Poor Bastion, you should be more careful with your cards" said Chazz while grinning "Only a Ra reject will forget to bring his cards to a Duel" he then took the cards.
"Put them back" warned a voice unfamiliar to him.
"Why should I obey?" replied Chazz while turning to the one who spoke to him "You are just a Ra reject, so learn how to stay at your place"
"If you think that you can get away with that, you're wrong" said Droy with a harsh glare on Chazz.
"Really" replied Chazz with a grin before rushing out of the dorm, followed by Droy.
"Stop right there you criminal scum!" yelled Droy while chasing Chazz.
"I'm not a criminal" replied Chazz before stopping "I'm simply the best in this school" he then did the last thing that Droy would think he will do with Bastion's cards; he threw them in the ocean "Now there's no way that the reject would Duel me tomorrow"
"You're so weak that you're ready to use such cheap tricks to win?" asked Droy with anger and disgust.
"I'm not weak" replied Chazz "I am the best of bests, the elite"
"Right, the 'Elite'" said Droy sarcastically "You're just someone who escapes like a coward instead of facing the problems"
"I hope that you have your Deck on you" growled Chazz "Because I'm going to make you regret what you just said"
"You are going down" said Droy while activating his Duel Disk.
"This is what they all say" replied Chazz, doing the same.
Droy: 4000
Chazz: 4000
"I'll take the first turn" said Chazz with a grin "I summon Return Zombie in Attack Mode and I finish my turn with two facedowns"
Return Zombie (Level 4) 1000 / 1600
Droy drew a card and sighed "Its look like Lady Luck is in my side. I use my Spell Card Mojo Conversion, by sending a monster to the Graveyard, I can take any spell card from my deck. I will send Ratnician and take The Evolvo-Ray, and of course, I will activate it now" a giant laser pistol appeared "And thanks to his Effect, I can Special Summon from my hand one Mutant monster level 4 or lower each turn, and with it I'll present you to the Ratcicle" a blue monster with sharp claws and teeth roared as he appeared.
Mutant – Ratcicle (Level 4) 1700 / 1500
"And now I Normal Summon the Spike in Attack Mode" a monster with brown spiky fur and long huge arms with sharpened claws and his back, covered with huge spines.
Mutant – Spike (Level 4) 2000 / 1500
"I will now use the Spell Card Freeze Punk!" declared Droy as the Ratcicle raised his claws "It can only be activated if I have the Ratcicle in my field. I can destroy all your Spell and Trap Cards, but I can't attack with him the turn I use that Spell Card" the blue mutant slammed his hand creating a trail of ice that past by his facedowns and destroyed them "Spike! Destroy that undead with your Spike's Surprise!" and the spike roared wildly before convening spikes from the ground, destroying the Zombie Type monster.
Droy: 4000
Chazz: 3000
"And I end with a facedown" said Droy while placing a card facedown
"Don't think that you will win just because you dealt damage first" growled Chazz while drawing a card "I summon Chthonian Soldier in Attack Mode and I equip him with Black Pendent" a large man with iron armor appeared on Chazz's field.
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 1700 / 1400
"And now, I will attack with him" said Chazz before that the dark warrior roared and charged the Ratcicle causing both monsters to be destroyed "And the best part is that my Chthonian Soldier was equipped with Black Pendent and since Black Pendent is in the Graveyard, then you will take 500 Damage Points"
Droy: 3500
Chazz: 3000
Droy smiled and said "And thank to you, I can now activate my Trap Card, Mutant Revenge! With it, I can Special Summon one monster from my Deck who possess the same Attack Points or less than the one who was just destroyed, and I choose the Snipe" a yellow furred monster with dark brown fur on its hands and legs and purple feathers on his back appeared with a hyena laugh.
Mutant – Snipe (Level 3) 1200 / 1300
"What a weak monster" commented Chazz with a grin "I end with this facedown"
Droy drew a card and grinned "It's look like this Duel is over"
"Unless you give up and go home, I don't think that this Duel is over" replied Chazz.
"I'll prove you wrong" said Droy, still grinning "I tribute Spike and Snipe to summon one of my aces, the Scorporilla" a big blue gorilla with a scorpion's tail appeared while pounding his fists on his chest.
Mutant – Scorporilla (Level 8) 3000 / 3000
"And when he's summoned, all the cards on the field are destroyed except him" again, the scorporilla pounded his fists on his chest before slamming them and destroying all the cards "Any last words, 'Elite'?"
"Damn you" growled Chazz before seeing the blue monster leaning back and his tail starting to glow, and before he knew it the monster's tail struck him.
Droy: 3500
Chazz: 0000
"Lucky punk" growled Chazz before rushing to the Obelisk Blue Dorms.
"I guess that I own an apology to Bastion" sighed Droy while looking toward the ocean.
The next day, someone knocked at the door of Shizuku, and in a rushed pace.
"I'm coming…" groaned Shizuku while stretching her arms.
As she opened the door, Shizuku saw a shocked Sky.
"Bastion's Deck was thrown in the ocean!" yelled Sky while shaking Shizuku.
"But why you are shaking me like that?" asked Shizuku, making Sky to stop shaking her.
"I'm just… it's really confusing to me…" answered Sky.
"I wonder if you are confused because you don't know who did it…" said Shizuku "Or what you should do"
Sky took a deep breath to calm herself and said "it's just that Bastion have an important Duel, and now… without his Deck… he won't be able to Duel…"
Shizuku shook her head and said "Let's worry when we arrive there" she turned to change herself "Beside, I do know who did it"
"Who?!" asked Sky.
"You'll see later" replied Shizuku "I'm pretty sure that you won't be surprised"
"You mean it's Chazz?!" asked Sky with shock.
'I'm really worried about her future' thought Shizuku with a sweatdrop 'I thought that I already told her that Chazz can do something and I sent her to warn Bastion'
A knock on the door snapped their attention to Alexis, who was at the door "I think that we should go to see the Duel"
Shizuku nodded and was fully changed to see the Duel.
In the Duel Arena, Bastion arrived with both Jaden and Syrus.
"Bastion! You've made it!" said Crowler in a delightful tone before droping it at the sight of Jaden "Oh, and I see you've brought some friends"
"I hope that you duel better than the company you keep" said Chazz with a dark smile.
"Wait, you are going to duel Chazz" asked Jaden before concluding "So he must be the one who threw your Deck in the ocean"
"I beg your pardon?!" asked Crowler, not knowing what just happened.
"I don't know what he's talking about Dr. Crowler" replied Chazz "I didn't do a thing"
"Really?" asked Shizuku, accompanied by Alexis, Zane, Crime and Sky.
"We saw you Chazz" added Alexis "We even saw your Duel against the Ra duelist"
"I've heard of you, Princeton" said Crime with a voice filled with disgust "But I didn't knew that you would stood that low"
"And don't try to deny it" warned Shizuku "We saw you"
"Really?" asked Chazz before saying "I could had just thrown away my own cards"
"Stop lying like that" said another voice, revealing Droy "You took the Deck from the desk and I chased you, before our Duel"
"No one calls me a liar" replied Chazz "And no one calls me a thief"
"Fine, then you're not!" said Bastion "Let's just have our Duel, shall we?"
"But how?!" asked Jaden with shock.
"A good Duelist has always a spared Deck" answered Bastion "Or a few of them. After all, you saw all of my different formulas" he then unzipped his blazer, revealing six different Decks "Well they were for all my different Dueling Decks. And each one of them is as powerful as the next!"
Unimpressed, Chazz said "You can go ahead and have you six stinky Decks. 'Cause all I need is this one! Now, let's start this!"
Bastion nodded and said "I thought that you would never ask Chazz" he then activated his Deck "You are only a problem to be solved, a theorem to be cracked"
"So bring it on" taunted Chazz.
"Duel!"
Bastion: 4000
Chazz: 4000
"Hope you're ready, because here comes the hurt" said Chazz while drawing a card "I summon Chthonian Soldier" as his dark warrior appeared.
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 1200 / 1400
"Then a card facedown that would do it for now"
"Oh, will it now?" said Bastion while taking his sixth card.
"Sounds like Bastion have something up his sleeve" commented Jaden.
"Show him Bastion!" cheered Droy.
"I summon Hydrogeddon in Attack Mode! Rise Hydrogeddon!" said Bastion as muddy water erupted from the earth, creating a quadruped dinosaur like monster made of water.
Hydrogeddon (Level 4) 1600 / 1000
"Now, attack Chthonian Soldier, with Hydro Gust!" ordered Bastion "Destroy him!"
Hydrogeddon let out a burst of muddy water, destroying the Chthonian Soldier.
Bastion: 4000
Chazz: 3600
"Thanks! You just activated the special ability of my Chthonian Soldier" announced Chazz "It causes you to take the same amount of damage to your life that I did!"
Bastion: 3600
Chazz: 3600
"Not fair!" commented Sky with a frown.
"Bastion sure walked into that one" added Jaden.
"I activate a special ability also!" said Bastion while taking a card from his Deck "You see Chazz, when Hydrogeddon successfully destroyed a monster in battle, I'm allowed to summon another Hydrogeddon from my Deck. So rise! Hydrogeddon!" and another Hydrogeddon appeared.
Hydrogeddon (Level 4) 1600 / 1000
"And, my Battle Phase still continue" added Bastion "Which means I can Attack you directly Chazz. So, go Hydrogeddon! Hydro Gust!"
Bastion: 3600
Chazz: 2000
"You'll pay for that" growled Chazz after recovering from the attack "I activate my Trap Card Call Of The Haunted! With it, I can Summon one monster from the Graveyard! And the monster I summon is… that's right! Chthonian Soldier!"
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 1200 / 1400
"Next I activate the Spell Card Inferno Reckless Summon! It allow both of us to summon in Attack Mode any monsters from our Hand, Deck, and Graveyard that are the same of the monster we already have on the field!" and Chazz summoned two others Chthonian Soldiers
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 1200 / 1400
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 1200 / 1400
"It makes no sense" commented Alexis "No matter how many of those monsters are out, they can't beat those Hydrogeddons"
"Alone, they can't" replied Shizuku "But united…"
"I activate the Equip Spell Card, Chthonian Alliance!" declared Chazz "The monster equipped with this card gain 800 Attack Points for every monster that have the same name as him! That brings his Attack Points to a total of… well you're the math nerd, you can figure it out"
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 3600 / 1400
"Attack that Hydrogeddon, Chthonian Soldier!" ordered Chazz making the strongest Chthonian Soldier to Attack one Hydrogeddon.
Bastion: 1600
Chazz: 2000
"This is bad" commented Shizuku "Bastion surly took a hard hit"
"How could he lose 2000 Life points this fast!" yelled Sky.
"Bravo! Good show!" complimented Bastion "But it would be short lived. Rise! Oxygeddon!" a pterodactyl like monster made of air appeared in Bastion's Field.
Oxygeddon (Level 4) 1800 / 800
"Now attack the 1200 Chthonian Soldier with your Vapor Scream!" and the dino made of air unleashed a loud screech, destroying a weak Chthonian Soldier.
Bastion: 1600
Chazz: 1400
"Forget?" asked Chazz "When my Chthonian Soldier gets destroyed, you take the same damage as me! Some whiz kid you are"
Bastion: 1000
Chazz: 1400
"My turn's not through" said Bastion "Next, my Hydrogeddon attacks another of you soldiers"
Bastion: 1000
Chazz: 1000
"That damage is still going back to you, loser!" reminded Chazz.
Bastion: 600
Chazz: 1000
"Oh man…" groaned Syrus "Why does Bastion keep attacking! His only hurting himself!"
"I don't think that's the case" replied Shizuku.
"Bastion is playing smart" added Zane with a smile.
"What?" asked Syrus with confusion.
"The Chthonian Soldier with 3600 Attack Points will be forced to have his Attack Points lower because there's less monster of the same name as him" explained Sky, focused on the Duel "Bastion is only using the flaw of the Equip Card Chthonian Alliance against Chazz"
Chthonian Soldier (Level 4) 2000 / 1400
"I see now" replied Syrus "Bastion simply took out the other Chthonians and lowered the big one's Attack Points"
"That's Bastion for you" added Droy with a smirk "Every one of his moves is calculated"
"Last, I'll place a facedown card and that will do for now" said Bastion while placing a card facedown.
"Will it? I wouldn't be so sure whiz kid" said Chazz while drawing a card "I'm sacrificing Chthonian Soldier and all the cards in my hand in order to summon Inferno Incinerator! Didn't see that coming, did ya?" and fire engulfed the Chthonian Soldier before exploding.
Inferno Incinerator (Level 6) 2800 / 1800
"Better brake out you calculator, because you can't find a formula to beat this guy this turn. You're toast!" said Chazz with confidence "Face it Bastion, you don't stand a chance against Inferno Incinerator! Especially since his Attack Points increase by 200 for every monster you have out in the Field!"
Inferno Incinerator (Level 6) 3400 / 1800
"That thing has 3400 Attack Points?!" asked Jaden with shock "That means; no matter which monster receives the attack, Bastion's finished!"
"Now, Inferno Incinerator, attack with Firestorm Blast!" ordered Chazz as the monster let out a fire blast toward Bastion's monsters.
"I activate my Trap!" declared Bastion "Amorphus Barrier! When I have 3 or more monsters on my side of the field, this trap negate my opponent attack and ends the battle! But nice try Chazz"
"So what?" asked Chazz with arrogance "One turn. That's all it will buy you, then you will be all mine"
"I'm afraid there won't be a next turn" countered Bastion.
"What?" asked Chazz, not understanding the meaning behind Bastion's words.
"You heard me" said Bastion "And I activate the Spell Card Bonding H2O! I sacrifice two Hydrogeddons and one Oxygeddon and summon Water Dragon!" a burst of clear pure water came out of the earth forming a red eyed dragon made of water.
Water Dragon (Level 8) 2800 / 2600
"And since the number of monsters on my side of the field decreased, your Inferno Incinerator Attack Points decrease"
"Doesn't matter, my monster's Attack Points are still higher than yours" said Chazz feeling that his victory is near.
"Better double check your work" said Bastion "Because I've already done all the math"
"You mean that Bastion has this planned from the start?!" asked Jaden with shock.
'A worthy opponent' thought Shizuku 'He might give me some hard times to beat if I ever tried to duel him'
A giant tide came to splashed itself on the Inferno Incinerator, reducing his Attack Points to 0.
Inferno Incinerator (Level 6) 0000 / 1800
"His Attack Points!" yelled Chazz in confusion.
"Indeed that's Water Dragon special ability" explained Bastion "You see, when he's out on the Field the Attack Points of Fire Attribute and Pyro Type monsters automatically became 0. Now Water Dragon Attack! Tide Blast!" the dragon fired a water blast toward Inferno Incinerator destroying him and drowning the place with water.
Bastion: 600
Chazz: 0000
"A well played Duel Chazz, but not well played enough" said Bastion.
"Pure luck!" barked Chazz, angry with his lose "You drew a lucky card and stumbled into the win that's all!"
"Perhaps" replied Bastion "But luck favors the prepared, and I was prepared to beat you with a half dozen other cards as well. Sorry, you would have lost the Duel one way or another, but deny it if you want, just like you denied throwing my Deck into the ocean"
'Luck, uh?' wondered Shizuku 'It's true that Bastion was LUCKY for winning, but maybe he was just more prepared…'
"What on your mind?" asked Alexis.
"Just thinking about that luck thing that Chazz said" answered Shizuku "Bastion could have lost, yet he was lucky enough to win"
"That's a little true" said Zane "But he was talented enough to win"
"Oh Bastion Misawa!" called Crowler sounding like a happy schoolgirl "Congratulation and welcome to Obelisk Blue"
"Sorry, but I must decline that invitation" countered Bastion, shocking Crowler "When I first arrived at the Academy, I decided that I would enter Obelisk Blue when I become the number one Student in the freshmen class" he then turned to Shizuku and Jaden "The two of you are the best, and only when I defeat both of you, that I will enter Obelisk Blue"
"I will await you anywhere and anytime" said Shizuku with a challenging smirk.
"Why not settling this here and now?" asked Jaden, feeling his adrenaline being pumped up by the Duel between Chazz and Bastion.
"This would have to wait" answered Bastion "I still have work to do, both of you are powerful, and I haven't created the Deck to defeat you"
"We will be waiting for ya!" said Jaden with determination.
