-Chapter 2-
Cyber Magician Girl
Last time in our story, the main protagonist, Yu Morse Akira Duels against three bully nerds.
"We are not nerds!" The bully trio yelled.
Whatever. Anyway, we learned more about Yu and his friends, Tom and Emoti-chan. Everyone in the whole Den City is now watching Yu's Duel, but will he win?
"My turn, I draw!" Yu drew his card, and thought about a plan. "Now, what should I do now?"
"Master Yu, according to my calculation, your opponent currently has El Shaddoll Construct and no face-down card. I would suggest you to…"
"Nope. Let's do this!" Yu decided, ignoring Rosey's suggestion.
"Wait Master!" She tried to get back his attention, but to no effect.
"I summon C# Wyrm in Attack Position!" A blue, cybernetic looking worm appeared. It revealed its mouth, which looked horrifying with sharp rows of teeth.
C# Wyrm-Level 2, LIGHT, Cyverse/Effect, 100 ATK, 300 DEF.
" Then, I switch my C# Security Hound to Defense Position and then, I end my turn," Yu quickly finished with his first monster changing to defense position.
"Ha! That's all you can do? Pathetic!" King Beetle mocked him. "Jack! Like Moll, summon your strongest monster and scare him!"
"Yes sir!" Jack, who was now Samurai J, complied. "I draw!"
"I summon XX-Saber Boogarknight!" A silver armored warrior with ripped red cape appeared. "When he is Normal Summoned, I can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower X-Saber monster from my hand. I Special Summon another XX-Saber Boogerknight!"
A second one appeared next to the first one. "What's he gonna do with those two same monsters?" Yu wondered.
"Since I control two X-Saber monsters, I can Special Summon XX-Saber Faultroll from my hand!" A red armored warrior appeared in the middle between the two Boggarknights. "Then, I Normal Summon X-Saber Pashuul!" A blue armored warrior appeared, who looked a cyborg.
"Wow! That's a lot of summoning for one turn!" Yu astonished.
"Finally, I activate the Spell Card, Star Changer! With this, I can change the Level of one monster I control! I change my X-Saber Pashuul's Level by decreasing it by one!" X-Saber Pashuul's Level decreased to just one star. "Now, I tune my two Level four XX-Saber Boggarknight's with my changed Level 1 X-Saber Pashuul!"
The blue armored warrior raised his sword up to the air before turning into one green ring. His other two monsters jumped into the ring, transforming into a total of 8 spheres.
"Mighty warrior of blade, show yourself and slice any pests in our way! Synchro Summon! Level 9! XX-Saber Gottoms!" The strongest member of the X-Saber Archetype appeared with a battle cry and its huge sword.
"Oooh! So you can Synchro Summon!" Yu awed.
"That's right!" He replied. "Now, you will be destroyed! But, first I activate XX-Saber Faultroll's effect! Once per turn, I can target 1 X-Saber monster in my Graveyard and Special Summon it! I Special Summon my X-Saber Pashuul!"
The blue armored sword wielder returned from the grave. "Then, I play another Star Changer from my hand to decrease Pashuul's Level once again!"
"Another one!?" Yu gasped.
"Watch out, Master! He's going to perform another Synchro Summon!" Rosey warned.
"Now I tune my Level 6 XX-Saber Faultroll with my changed Level 1 X-Saber Pashuul!" Like before, the blue armored warrior turned into green ring for his other warrior to jump through, turning into 6 spheres of light.
"Two blades meet at crossword, and master of double swords appear! Synchro Summon! Level 7! X-Saber Ubrellum!" A dark armored warrior with two swords on its back appeared with 2200 ATK.
All the people who were watching the Duel awed and surprised to see two Synchro Monsters summoned in one turn.
-Tom's home-
"Hey, that's not fair!" Emoti-chan yelled as she was pointing accusingly at the screen. "That's cheating!"
"Emoti-chan, please sit down and calm down," said Tom.
Emoti-chan sat down, but still looked mad with her arms crossed over her chest. "That guy is cheating! I may not be into Dueling a lot, but I know that you can only Special Summon Extra Deck monster one at a time!"
"True, but I hope Morse can somehow get out of this situation," Tom said, looking worry.
-Tom's Home Ends-
Meanwhile, at SOL Technology's VR Monitor and Control Room, an alert was occurring.
Alert! Alert! System Detect Error!
"Sir, we detected a forbidden error! Account Name, Samurai J has Special Summoned more than one monster from his Extra Deck!" The female worker said.
"I hate cheater so much! Don't they know that you can't Special Summon more than one monster from the Extra Deck!? Correct the error!" The chief ordered.
"Wait sir!" shouted another female worker. "We got a message from Codebreaker!"
"Say what!?" The chief gasped.
"According to the message, he would like to continue the Duel the way it is going," she said.
"…Fine! Let it be," the chief complied. "If he knows what he is doing, then I don't mind."
"Yes sir!" The workers agreed and just continued from there.
Back to the duel…
"What's wrong? Aren't you gonna say something, oh I don't know, that I'm cheating!?" Samurai J questioned.
"Nope." His straightforward reply surprised the trio.
"Huh? You're not gonna argue about it?" He asked.
"No way, man. Besides, this way would be more fun even though it is against the rule and all, but just this one. Now, show me what you got!" Yu exclaimed.
Samurai J twitched his eyes in annoyance. "Fine! It's your funeral, man! I declare X-Saber Ubrellum attack first!" The second Synchro Summoned monster got its swords out, ready to attack. It jumped into the air and had its swords in the front, targeting at C# Wyrm.
"Not so fast! I activate the Normal Trap Card, C# Backup!" His set card revealed to be a Trap Card, which showed C# Security Hound protecting another monster with an electro barrier surrounding its body.
"A Trap!?" Samurai J gasped.
"That's right! If I control two or more C# monsters, I can protect my C# monster once per battle!" C# Security Hound did exactly what it does in the artwork, protecting C# Wyrm in the process.
"Well, it doesn't matter!" He countered. "I will still destroy it by making Gottoms attack next!"
His ace Synchro Monster moved forward and despites its size, it moved very quickly, and slashed C# Wyrm in half and destroyed it.
Yu's LP: 2900-1400 = 1500
"Hey, you're supposed to lose all of your Life Points!" Samurai J pointed.
"Yeah, but thanks to C# Wyrm's effect, I take half the damage from battle involving it!" Yu explained.
"Well, whatever. I will end my turn, and let Buggy-sama deal with you on his turn," he said as he smirked.
"Alrighty, but I will show you guys something really cool soon," Yu said.
"Huh? Something cool?" The trio burst out in laughing. "You really think you can win, do you?"
"Yeah, I really do," he replied. "My turn! I draw!"
"First, I normal summon C# Wordzard!" Out of the summoning portal, a young chibi boy appeared. He wore a pair of white eyeglasses with digital lens that showed some kind of data and graph running, blue wizard clothes, with a pair of light trouser and wand with a letter "W" attached at the top.
C# Wordzard-Level 3, LIGHT, Spellcaster/Effect, 1000 ATK, 100 DEF.
"I activate C# Wordzard's effect, which allows me to reduce its ATK to zero until the End Phase to Special Summon Level 4 or lower C# monster in my Graveyard!" The chibi wizard raised his wand up in the air. "I Special Summon C# Wyrm!"
The digital worm monster reappeared in Defense Position. "I end my turn with that."
"Nee, nee, nee! It looks like this is the end of the road for you. It's been fun….not really with you!" He laughed aloud as he placed his hand on the Deck. "I draw!"
King Beetle looked over the cards in his hand, making a malicious smile over his face. "First, I play the Spell Card, Graceful Charity! You know what this, but I will just say it. I draw three cards from my Deck, but discard two from my hand."
After drawing three cards, he discarded two from his hand. "Then, I Normal Summon Digital Bug Cocoondenser!" A white cocoon appeared, but this one looked mechanical and has two glowing yellow holes.
"Huh? That monster has zero attack," Yu noticed.
"Good observation, but take a closer look!" King Bettle exclaimed. "I activate its effect! Once per turn, if this card is in Attack Position, I can target 1 Level 3 Insect-Type monster in my Graveyard. Then, I change this card to Defense Position and Special Summon that monster in my Graveyard. I change Cocoondenser to Defense Position and Special Summon my Level 3 Digital Bug Centibit!" Another digitalized-looking bug appeared and this one was in a form of centipede.
"If my calculation is correct, he must be planning for…" Rosey said.
"Now!" King Bettle interrupted. "I use my two Level 3 Digital Bug Cocoondenser and Centibit to construct the Overlay Network!"
His two monsters turned into two yellow streams of energies. Both energies dived in the spiral galaxy-shaped portal on the ground with huge burst of energy coming out after that. "Bug of the digital world, roll out into battles! Xyz Summon! Rank 3! Digital Bug Scaradiator!"
A light blue scarab beetle, using a big CPU fan as its dong, appeared as it was using its legs to move the CPU fan.
"He Xyz Summoned, Master Yu!" Rosey gasped.
"It looks like so," said Yu.
"But, I am not done yet! Now I detach two of my Digital Bug's Overlay Units so that I can Xyz Summon once again!" King Beetle announced as his Xyz Digital Bug absorbed the two comments that went around it, turned into yellow energy, and then dived into the portal.
"Wooooo! You can do that!?" Yu asked surprisingly.
"Digital Bug, takes flight and deletes my foes! Xyz Summon! Rank 5! Digital Bug Corebage!" A blue, digitalized butterfly appeared, taking place of his previous monster's spot as it fluttered in the air in between Construct and XX-Saber Gottoms.
"Your third opponent, King Beetle, used his Xyz Monster's effect to summon more powerful Xyz Monster!" Rosey analyzed.
"I can see that, Rosey," he said.
"Ha, ha! I activate Digital Bug Corebage's effect! I can attach 1 Insect-Type monster from my Graveyard to this card as its Overlay Unit. I choose my Digital Bug Cocoondenser!" Cocoondenser summoned shortly before it turned into a yellow comet, and then it orbited around Corbage. "However, it is not over yet! No….I just had begun! Now, I detach two of my Corbage's Overlay Units to Xyz Summon once again!"
"Again!?" Rosey gasped in high-pitch noise.
"King of the Digital Bug, show your mighty horn and stop all threats to your network! Xyz Summon! Rank 7! My true ace monster, Digital Bug Rhinosebus!" A blue mechanical rhinoceros beetle appeared. True to its name, it had two bus slots on either side of its long horn. Its wings, including the cover have glowing blue circles. It roared strongly, presenting its 2600 ATK.
"Now you will see fear!" Yu narrowed his eyes while King Beetle continued with his turn. "I play the Spell Card, Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your only defense, that C# Backup!"
The said Spell Card unleashed a typhoon, which blew away Yu's Trap Card, destroying it.
"Next, I activate my Rhinosebus' effect! Once per turn, by detaching 1 Overlay Unit it has, I can destroy 1 face-up monster you control with the highest DEF! I choose your C# Security Hound! Enter Delete!" Rhinosebus hit Yu's monster and used its horn to throw it off the air. "Now, I attack and I choose your C# Wyrm! And if you think you are safe just because you won't take damage from battle involving a Defense Position monster, then you are wrong! My Digital Bug can inflict piercing Battle Damage to you! You will take a total of 2300 damages! Just enough to deplete all your Life Points! I, King Beetle, win this Duel!"
His Xyz roared before it went straight to Yu with its horn on the front. "Taste loss!" King Beetle exclaimed.
Yu, however, didn't look scared or worried at all. In fact, he was smiling. "Not so fast! I activate C# Backup's second effect! When a C# monster I control is targeted for an attack, I can remove this card from play in my Graveyard, so that I take only half the damage and protect my monster from destruction!"
Yu embraced the full force of the attack as his body was pushed away, but still standing after even though he was pushed strongly.
Codebreaker's LP: 350
"Danger! Danger! Master Yu, your Life Point is at a CRITICAL Level!" Rosey warned.
King Beetle didn't look happy that Yu survived. "Grrrgh! Whatever! I will just end my turn here! It doesn't matter what you do! You can't beat all three of us at the same time, not even just one of us! How could you possibly win in this situation?"
Yu gave a slight smirk. "Well, no matter how strong all your monsters are, there is always a weakness. I just have to fight it, that's all. Now…" He placed his finger on the top of his Deck, closing his eyes for a moment.
"This guy is out of it! He can't win!" PuppetMasterX claimed.
"Exactly!" Samurai J agreed.
"No matter how strong it is, there is always a weakness…" Yu thought before he opened his eyes, looking determined. "I DRAW!"
He drew his card in a shining arc with trail of sparkles when he did. He slowly looked at the card, and grinned at it. "Eureka! I unlock the code to victory! I Normal Summon C# Download Knight!" A knight with streamline black and white armor appeared, with green glowing lines across the armored body and eyes also glowed in green color. It wielded a shield that looks like a CD Disk, and glowing green light saber sword with a handle that shaped like a flash drive.
C# Download Knight-Level 4, LIGHT, Cyverse/Effect, 1600 ATK, 1000 DEF.
"I activate C# Download Knight's effect! When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, I can Special Summon C# Sharp monster from my Graveyard! I Special Summon C# Security Hound! Download!"
The digitalized hound dog reappeared once again with a howl for its resurrection.
"HA! What can you possibly do with just four weak monsters!?" King Beetle questioned.
"This!" Yu replied as he raised his arm up to the air. "With my C# Security Hound, Wyrm, Wordzard, and Download Knight, I use them all for…LINK SUMMON!"
"Link Summon!?" The trio said at the same time with each surprised expression.
Yu's four C# monsters turned into four streams of light in each different color; green, red, yellow, and blue. The four streams of light converged to one core above the air. "Young magician who studies in the magical arts of cipher, I summon you to help me in my aid! Link Summon! Come out! Link Number 4! Cyber Magician Girl!"
The core turned into a giant orb, with several digital numbers in-circling it before the orb broke, with a monster appeared out of it. She was a young woman with light blue skin and green eyes with a bunch of digital number running in its pupil, like computers. Her hairs were composed of some bangs that spiked outward on the front and back. She wore a cybernetic magician dress shirt, which only revealed upper half of the chest area and neck, and mini-skirt with glowing yellow lines, and cone-shaped hat with two halo rings on the top. She also carried with a wand that has a star at the top.
Cyber Magician Girl-Link Number 4, LIGHT, Spellcaster/Link/Effect, 2000 ATK, 1600 DEF. Link Markers: Up, Down-right, Down-Left.
Hmmm. So that is this new generation's Dark Magician Girl…awesome.
"It sure is!" Yu agreed.
The trio looked worry, but the leader, King Beetle, realized something quickly and he regained his confident. "Intriguing monster, but it is still weak compared to our mightier monsters! How can that Link Monster beat the combined power of Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz?"
"She is not weak! She is my ace monster, and I trust her all the time!" Yu said, with his monster looking back and smiled for returning his kindness. "I activate her effect! Once per turn, I can control one Special Summoned monster from the Extra Deck on my opponent's side of the field!"
"Say what!?" The trio gasped in shock.
"Take control of one of our monsters!? That's cheating!" Samurai J argued.
"Who you calling cheating, cheater? Didn't you Synchro Summoned two in fact?" Yu reminded him, making him grit his teeth.
"I take control of El Shaddoll Construct!" Yu decided, pointing at the very monster.
"What!? My monster!?" PuppetMasterX said.
"That's right! Take this! CRTL Execute!" Cyber Magician Girl turned the tip of her hand into an electrical rope. She whipped at El Shaddol Construct, catching it successfully as the wipe shocked the monster. She pulled it to Yu's side of the field, now under his control.
"No! My Construct!" He cried.
"Now that El Shaddoll Construct is under my control, it is summoned to my Cyber Magician Girl's Link Zone!" Yu said.
"Great job, Master Yu! Your Link Monster, Cyber Magician Girl, provides you with two Link Zones, which her Link Markers are pointing to. When a Link Monster's Link Markers point to your Main Monster Zones, those zones become into Link Zones," Rosey explained.
"That's right," Yu agreed. "Before I battle, here is a little gift for you guys! I play the Normal Spell, C# Storm!"
It showed C# Download Knight, Wyrm, Security Hound, and other C# monsters trapped in a tornado. "When this card is activated, you guys take 500 points of damage for each C# monsters in my Graveyard! Since I have four in my Graveyard, you guys take 2000 damages!"
The same tornado appeared and sucked the trio into it.
"Waaaaaaaah!" They screamed.
PuppetMasterX: 4000-2000 = 2000 LP
Samurai J: 4000 – 2000 = 2000 LP
King Beetle: 4000 – 2000 = 2000 LP
"Now, it's time for the main course! Battle! El Shaddoll will attack first and I choose XX-Saber Gottoms!"
"But, Gottoms has higher ATK than Construct!" Samurai J pointed out.
"True, but El Shaddoll Construct has an effect that when it battles a Special Summoned monster, that monster is destroyed! Thread of Destruction!"
El Shaddoll Construct destroyed Gottoms with its threads. "Then, I play the Quick-Play Spell, Blue Screen of Damage!" The said Spell showed Kozaki gasped in shock when his lab computer got a blue screen of death, with an emoticon image of Winged Kuriboh on the side of the screen. "At this time, if my opponent's Special Summoned monster is destroyed, they take damage equals to that monster's ATK!"
"Nnnooooooooo!" Samurai Jack screamed as his Life Points went down
Samurai J's LP: 0
"Next, I direct attack your Life Points with Cyber Magician Girl! Attack with Digital Plasma Beam!" Cyber Magician Girl shot out a powerful beam of energy out of her hand.
"How can this haapppppppeeeeeenn!? PuppetMasterX got blasted away.
PuppetMasterX's LP: 0
"And now, it is all you left," Yu said as he looked over at King Beetle.
"Krrrgh," he cringed. "But, wait…nee, nee, nee! You still lose!"
"Huh?" Yu looked confused.
"Can't you see!? You used up all of your attack! Your turn is already finished!" He claimed.
"Really? I don't think so. My turn has only just started bro!" Yu countered. "Cause due to Cyber Magician Girl's other effect, she can attack one more if I am controlling a monster that belongs to other opponent."
"You can't! You, you, your monster! It has lower Attack points than my Digital Bug's Attack! There is no way it can be destroyed!" King Beetle argued.
"But I can, with this last card in my hand!" Yu declared as he played that last card. "It is another Quick Play Spell, ATK Data Exchange!" It showed an email with ATK on it sending it to Kuriboh using a laptop at the same time it sends another email with ATK on it to its friend, Winged-Kuriboh at the end. "When this card is activated, I can target one monster I control, and then it gains ATK equal to another monster's ATK on my field! I target Cyber Magician Girl, so she gains ATK equal to El Shaddoll Construct's ATK!"
Cyber Magician Girl held up her wand. El Shaddoll Construct attached its thread to the wand and began transferring some of her powers to Cyber Magician Girl. Her aura grew stronger, increasing her attack to 4800.
"4800 ATK…Impossible!" King Beetle gasped in shock.
"Finally, let's finish this! Cyber Magician Girl, show our friend and the world how flashy we are! Finale Digital Plasma Beam!" His ace monster shot a much powerful beam at him, obliterating Digital Bug Rhinosebus.
"CURSE IIIIITTTTTTTTTTT!" He screamed the loudest as he gets blasted away.
King Beetle's LP: 0
Codebreaker WINS
Everyone who was watching was silence at first, but few seconds later, they cheered at the top of their lung.
"Woohoo! That was awesome!" Naoki cheered.
"Heck yeah!" The random old guy at the bar said cheerfully.
"Yeah, boyz! That's my bro, there, bro!" The dude with his gangsters claimed.
"He won! Thanks to the Egyptian God!" Tom cheered. "Of course, he would win, anyway, but wow! That was awesome."
"Good job….Yu," Emoti-chan thought as she smiled.
"Well, that was the most amazing VR Duel I've ever saw," Kusanagi said. "What do you think, Yusasku?"
"Hmph. It wasn't bad, but I finally understand what you meant by he is…flashy."
Yu waved his hand and made random victory poses to the screen on-purpose.
"And that's why people call me Codebreaker!" Yu said to the screen.
While most people cheered for Codebreaker's latest victory, certain other people saw it with more or less enthusiasm.
"Well, well. That was interesting. Then again, he will be just another victim to what will come soon in the future," said a man. This person wore what appeared to be a white armor, but didn't look too heavy. He had a spiky brown and red hair with a strange looking mask.
Someone else, a single person was watching Yu's Duel. This mysterious figure had their nail polished, which indicated that it was a woman. "Yu Akira…Perhaps it's time to test him."
Hello, guys! Welcome to my first Yu-Gi-Oh VRAINS fanfic...well, more like a one-shot, actually. Did you like it? What do you think of the story, characters, and the Duel?
Right now, this story will later become into an official full story after this site creates the official category for VRAINS. This is more or less an OVA-like one-shot, even though it has two chapters. When the category is made, I will delete this and moved it to that category when it becomes available.
With all that said, I hope you enjoyed this short OVA/one-shot story before the full version comes out. See you guys next time.
