acaacko2000: Patience, my friend. I've already confirmed more than once that Mako Tsunami VS Jack Atlas will be "after" the episode Dirty Dueling. Just five more episodes and "then" the next duel.

(Midterms; Day 4)

It was Thursday and the girls were having lunch once again in the afternoon. Rainbow Dash was breathing heavily as she dragged herself towards the table with all her friends. Rainbow Dash picked herself up, sat down at the table, and rested her chin on the tabletop. AJ deadpanned Rainbow Dash.

Applejack: Really? We're back to this again?

Rainbow smiled and sat up.

Rainbow Dash: Nah, I was just kidding.

The girls laughed while Applejack shook her head.

Twilight: Now that you're here, Rainbow Dash, we can watch the show. Pinkie Pie?

Pinkie was happily typing onto her laptop.

Pinkie Pie: Already ahead of you!

The girls gathered around Pinkie Pie as she played the episode.

The episode began with the song "Up Where We Belong" playing while Yugi and his pals visited Solomon at the hospital.

Yugi: Grandpa! You're okay!

Solomon: Yugi! Come give your grandpa a big hug!

The Rainbooms were so happy to see Yugi reuniting with his grandpa.

Tea: (Sniffle) It's so emotional!

Pinkie Pie also let out a sniffle.

Pinkie Pie: It sure is.

She and Fluttershy wiped tears from their eyes.

Yugi: Gramps, you don't blame me for everything that happened to you, do you?

Solomon: Yes.

The girls widened their eyes as the opening sequence plays.

"Kawaitaaa"

"Sakebigaaa"

Even Fluttershy couldn't help but laugh along with her friends.

"Todoke"

"Fly at higher gaaaaaame"

Rainbow Dash: Another nice moment ruined. Thanks a lot, LittleKuriboh.

Solomon: I'm so proud of you, Yugi. You rescued my soul, and you became the King of Card Games! By the way, what happened to Bakura?

Joey: Oh, we left him back on the island. Nyehehehehe!

The girls stared at the screen.

Rarity: They did what to my Bakura?

Bakura: Hello? Anybody? I want to go home!

Rarity breathed in, smiled, and hummed to keep her anger inside.

Fluttershy: Um, Rarity? Are you okay? You seem upset.

Rarity: Upset? Oh no, darling. I assure you I am not upset about anything.

Fluttershy: Oh, okay.

Yugi: Now that you're out of the hospital, you can go back to running that worthless card game shop that nobody ever visits. The basement just seems so empty without you.

The girls laughed while Fluttershy rolled her eyes and shook her head.

Rebecca: Hello!

Yugi: Who's that?

The camera pans up to reveal Rebecca Hawkins holding a teddy bear while The Exorcist music played.

Rebecca: Ahehe. My name's Rebecca. I'm eight years old, and I'm the number one ranked duelist in America!

The girls dropped their jaws and gasped in some air.

Applejack: Are y'all hearin' what ah'm hearin'?

The other girls nodded their heads.

The Rainbooms: Mm-hmm!

Twilight: This new character's voiced by an actual girl!

Rarity: Oooh, this seems quite "rare" in these videos. I never thought LittleKuriboh would hire a female voice actress for his show.

Rainbow Dash: Do you think he'll ever let us voice characters in his show too?

Pinkie Pie: Probably, if we ask him politely. After all, he hasn't done season five just yet.

Joey: That's impossible! Only grown-ups are allowed to play children's card games.

The girls chuckled.

Rebecca: I'm looking for Solomon Muto.

Yugi: Who the Hell is Solomon Muto?

Tea: Yugi, that's your grandpa.

Yugi: He has a name?!

The girls tried covering their laughter but failed.

Solomon: Hello, little girl. If you're trying to get into my will, you'd better hurry up. I could drop dead at any second... with any luck.

Fluttershy facepalmed.

Pinkie Pie: With any luck? How would that make you lucky in any way?

Rebecca: You stole my Blue-Eyes White Dragon!

Tristan: Aww, she's so cute!

Teddy: She wasn't talking to you!

The girls widened their eyes.

The Rainbooms and Joey: Nyeh!

Joey: The bear is possessed!

Rebecca: Hehe. Don't be silly. It's just a regular teddy bear.

Yugi: Well, okay, but it did seem kinda like-

Teddy: You'll be the first to die!

The girls stared at the screen with shocked expressions.

Rarity: So scary.

Sunset: I can't believe I'm becoming scared of a teddy bear. And to think I once transformed into a raging she-demon.

Twilight: I have that feeling where I want to go home and hide under the covers.

Fluttershy: Me too. Can someone hold me?

AJ wrapped her arms around Fluttershy.

Applejack: I gotcha, Sugarcube.

Fluttershy: Thank you.

Rebecca: I want you to return the card you stole from me.

Solomon: You'll never get it back! It's mine! Mine, I tell you!

Yugi: What my grandpa's trying to say is that he would never steal a card from another duelist. You must be mistaken.

Solomon: It's mine! All mine!

Rainbow Dash: Or not.

The girls chuckled.

Rebecca: I don't believe you. I challenge you to a duel, old man. And if I win, I get back the Blue-Eyes you stole from me!

Solomon: Bring it on, you little bi-

Yugi: Grandpa, no!

The girls sputtered before laughing out loud.

Rainbow Dash: Aw man. Hahahaha!

Rarity: Let this be a lesson. Never, and I mean never, speak to a young lady like that.

Yugi: You just got out of the hospital. You're in no fit state to play a harmless children's card game. I'll duel her in your place.

Rebecca: Fine by me. I'll win either way. Isn't that right, teddy?

Teddy: Your mother plays card games in Hell!

Yugi and the others were completely frozen.

Yugi: O... kay...

The Rainbooms had their jaws dropped.

Rarity: Well... that was... quite a statement you don't hear often.

Rainbow Dash: I hope that's the last time we ever hear from that bear.

Applejack: Please don't jinx it, Rainbow.

Child #1: Look, Daddy! It's a Blue-Eyes! A real one!

Father: It's just a statue, you ignorant child. By the way, the Easter Bunny isn't real either, and I'm not even your real father.

The child started crying.

Rarity: O.M.G. This is absurd.

Sunset: I know. Who says things like that to a child?

Child #2: Oh, wow! A theme park based around a children's card game! This is the most absurd concept ever!

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, I second that one.

Yugi: Hey, Mokuba. Do you mind if we play a card game here?

Mokuba: Sorry, Yugi. We're fully booked. But since you saved my immortal soul from the clutches of an evil mastermind, I suppose I can allow it just this once.

Yugi: Wow, you can do that?

Mokuba: My brother is Seto Kaiba. I can decide who lives and who dies.

The girls widened their eyes.

Applejack: He's bluffin'.

The others muttered in agreement but were also nervous.

Rebecca and Yugi began dueling already.

Rebecca: I summon Witch of the Black Forest!

Yugi: I summon Disgruntled Celtic Guardian!

Solomon: (Thought) That's strange. This card game seems awfully familiar. (Talking) Rebecca, what's your last name?

Rebecca: If you must know, it's Hawkins. And yes, my grandfather is Professor Arthur Hawkins, the man you betrayed!

Tristan: Holy (Bleep) on a (Bleep) sandwich with (Bleep) on top! ...and a side helping of (Bleep).

The girls began laughing their heads off. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Applejack held onto their stomachs while Twilight and Pinkie Pie wiped tears from their eyes.

Rarity: And once again, Tristan has gotten us. Hahahahaha!

Yugi: My grandpa would never do something like that.

Rebecca: It's the truth! The voices in my head told me so! Isn't that right, teddy?

Teddy: Hail Satan!

The Rainbooms: Nyeh!

Pinkie Pie: Thanks a lot, Rainbow Dash. You jinxed it.

Rainbow Dash: Sorry. I gotta remember to keep my mouth shut.

Solomon: Rebecca, please! Your grandfather and I were very close.

A flashback began.

Solomon: We met in Egypt on an archaeological dig, where we bonded over our mutual hatred of young people.

The girls felt taken back from that statement.

Rarity: Well, that was rather rude.

Solomon: He also shared with me some very controversial theories.

Past Arthur: I believe that the ancient Egyptians used to play Yu-Gi-Oh in their spare time.

Past Solomon: Pull the other one!

Past Arthur: No, really. I mean it.

Past Solomon: Next, you'll be telling me that the Romans played Pokemon!

The Rainbooms: Pokemon?!

Twilight: Yeah, I don't think the Romans did that.

Fluttershy: (Thought) Oh, I love those little Pokemon creatures, especially that cute little Togepi.

Past Arthur: Look at this card, Solomon.

Arthur showed Solomon a Giant Soldier of Stone card.

Past Arthur: See how it barely resembles these ancient heiroglyphs.

Past Solomon: My God, you're right! This could revolutionize the field of Egyptology... somehow.

Solomon: Just then, the tomb collapsed around us. We had been trapped inside a cold and desolate place far from human contact, but since we were both very old, we were used to that sort of thing.

Some of the girls laughed while the others shook their heads.

Past Arthur: I say, Solomon, let's have a card game to decide which one of us gets to live.

Past Solomon: That's the sickest thing I've ever heard. Let's do it!

The girls couldn't help but laugh after that.

Rainbow Dash: I know that was extreme, but I...

She couldn't help but chuckle.

Rebecca: I am so sick of your lying lies, you big fat liar!

Tea: Shut up, you hussy! Yugi's grandpa would never lie! He's the wisest man I've ever met!

Solomon: Where am I? What day is it? I like pudding!

The girls snickered.

Pinkie Pie: Now I want some pudding! Ooh, and with tiny little cookies on the side. Ooh, and, and...

AJ placed a hand on Pinkie Pie's shoulder.

Applejack: How 'bout we just wait to get some after school?

Pinkie Pie: Okay.

Rebecca: I sacrifice all my monsters in order to power up my Shadow Ghoul!

Solomon: Hmm.

A flashback showed Solomon surrendering.

Past Solomon: I surrender, Arthur.

The flashback ended.

Yugi: You win, Rebecca. I surrender.

Joey, Tristan, and Tea: Nyeh!

The Rainbooms: Super Special Awesome Plot Twist!

Rarity: I simply did not expect Yugi to surrender a duel.

Fluttershy: Neither... did I.

Rebecca: I won. Now hand over my card!

Solomon: If you insist.

He showed the Blue-Eyes White Dragon card halves taped together.

Rebecca: You tore it! You ruined the collector's value! How am I going to sell it on eBay now? Satan will be very angry!

The girls fell down anime style.

Applejack: Really? She was gonna sell it online?

Sunset: Unbelievable.

Arthur: Rebecca, behave yourself!

Rebecca: Grandpa!

Solomon: Arthur, is that really you?

Arthur: Yes. I've decided to show up at the last minute in order to tie up all the loose ends. Rebecca, did you know that Yugi actually won the duel?

Rebecca: Grandpa, I won!

Arthur: Take a look at this card. It's called Soul Release. If Yugi had played this, you would have lost.

Rebecca: But he didn't play it! He surrendered!

Arthur: Yes, but he could have won. Therefore, he was the winner.

Rebecca: But Yugi lost!

Arthur: And that is why he won.

Rebecca: What?!

The Rainbooms: What?!

Twilight: Okay, how exactly does that make any sense in any way?

Arthur: Allow me to make things even more confusing for you. You see, when Solomon lost the duel, he did so in order to save my life!

Past Arthur: Solomon, you shouldn't have surrendered.

Past Solomon: I wish I knew how to quit you!

The girls chuckled after that line.

Arthur: Even though I sacrificed monsters during my duel with Solomon, I never failed to honor their sacrifice. You see, Rebecca, with great cards comes great responsibility.

Pinkie Pie: Is that another Spider-Man reference?

Rarity: It would appear so.

Rarity giggled.

Rebecca: I'm sorry, Yugi.

Yugi: That's okay. Here, take this card that I won. I didn't even want it anyway.

Yugi gave Rebecca The Ties of Friendship.

Rebecca: Does this make me the King of Card Games?

Yugi: Hell no!

The girls laughed.

Sunset: You got that right, Yugi. That would technically make her the "Queen" of Card Games.

Tristan: Isn't anybody else worried about the evil teddy bear?

Arthur: What evil teddy bear?

Psycho music plays as the screen focuses on Rebecca's teddy bear, causing the Rainbooms to hold each other in fear.

[this episode guest starred safty as rebecca]

Robot Monkey Tristan: Put down your weapons! You have twenty seconds to comply!

The girls laughed until Pinkie Pie gasped.

Pinkie Pie: Wait a minute. I just remembered something from episode five.

Sunset: What is it, Pinkie?

Pinkie Pie: Tea said something about Tristan being a Robot Monkey. That was him we just saw.

The girls looked surprised.

Rarity: I think you're right! I thought the hair looked familiar. What could've happened to him?

Rainbow Dash: Guess we'll have to keep watching to find out.

Twilight: Yes, but for now, it seems this episode isn't over yet.

Pinkie pressed play.

Bakura: Hello? Is there anybody out there? I'm still stuck on this bloody island! Why doesn't anybody answer?

Bakura encounter a big cat.

Bakura: Oh, look! A kitty cat. Hello there, kitty! Oh, no! Don't do that! Bugger off, kitty!

After the episode was over, The girls but Rarity laughed. Rarity tried holding in her anger by holding a fake smile on her face.

After school was over, the students happily exited the building.

Rainbow Dash: Bye, girls. See ya tomorrow for the next episode.

The girls said their goodbyes as they went their separate ways. Just like yesterday, Lightning was watching them from the school's rooftop, only he wasn't alone this time. Harlin and Bohman were with him.

(Note: Harlin is Haru's name in the English Dub of Yu-Gi-Oh VRains.)

Lightning: It would seem that everything is running smoothly. Those Rainbooms still haven't managed to suspect a thing.

Bohman: That's correct, Lightning. As you already know, we've gathered what we needed after Joey and Seto Kaiba's duel... and after the duel that took place in Fluttershy's dream.

Lightning: Excellent. That's one Rainboom down, and only six more to go. Now who shall be next? Hmmm?

He spotted Applejack.

Lightning: Ah, yes. The farm girl... Applejack. Harlin.

Harlin: Yes, Lightning.

Lightning: You know what to do. The next duel shall take place inside Applejack's dream.

Harlin: Of course.

And with that, the three villains disappeared.

Author's Note: As you guys might already know, I've decided to answer your comments from now on. And I promise, I'll try even harder to post more chapters quicker.
