Vile: And I'm back, folks! Just because I've started GSTART doesn't mean I'm done with ZEXAL, oh, no no no no no no no! To keep my creative processes firing, I cooked up this newest Decks-hibition story. I should let you know that it is one of my more far-fetched ZEXAL stories (as far as ZEXAL goes, that is), but I hope you'll enjoy it regardless! Have fun, folks!


Decks-hibition

Story 12: Rainbow of Harmony

The main plaza of Heartland was in full swing, with numerous decorations of the seven rainbow colors set up everywhere. There was a stage in the center with a large seven-pointed white star, a circle of each color of the rainbow at the end of each point. The celebrators were having a blast, many of them having cotton candy of all colors: It appeared to be the favorite treat for this celebration.

"This is awesome!" Yuma chirped. Kotori, Tetsuo, Takashi, Cathy, Tokunosuke, Shark, Ariel, Sei, Sachi, Hikaya, and Yamoto were all with him. "I know I say that every year when the Rainbow Festival comes around, but hey, I mean it!"

Tokunosuke was eagerly munching on his violet cotton candy. "I hope the ceremony begins soon, Ura!" He chirped.

"I don't know much about the Rainbow Festival. I haven't been here that long." Yamoto said, very confused. "What ceremony is he talking about?"

Kotori smiled. "See that?" She asked, pointing at a mural to get Yamoto's attention. "It's said that centuries ago, our world was nothing but chaos: Wars, animosity, and bloodshed. Then, one day, after a powerful storm that raged during a war, a rainbow touched down onto the ground in the center, stopping the two sides. From the rainbow descended a young boy with rainbow hair… he called himself Nijiya. Seeing the conflict in the two sides' eyes, Nijiya unleashed a powerful rainbow in all directions, washing over both sides of the war. Everyone in the war felt the animosity fade from their hearts, their desire to fight diminishing."

"He then went to go back to the sky, but Nijiya gave them a message." Sachi added. "'This rainbow I give you is my gift… It is harmony, the ability to come together in order to better everyone. I will return some day in the future, but in my absence, please, cherish this gift I give to you. May you humans flourish under harmony!' He then went back into the sky, never to be seen again."

"Amazing…" Yamoto mused.

"Ever since Heartland was founded, the Rainbow Festival has been held every year, out of the hope that Nijiya would descend to the Earth again to see the progress humans have made." Shark added. "However, he's never shown up."

"Then again, some people think that Nijiya and the legend are fake." Tetsuo said.

"Nijiya's definitely real!" Yuma chirped. "Every year I hope that he'll show up, but this year, I've got a good feeling! He'll definitely show today!"

Takashi chuckled. "Yuma-kun, Nijiya's legend happened centuries ago, and Heartland wasn't even founded 100 years ago. Plus, a spirit of harmony isn't exactly on the list of living creatures. To summarize, Nijiya is most likely not real."

"Then why are you even here, Inchou?" Yuma countered with a smirk.

"He's got you there, Takashi." Cathy said.

This got Sei's attention. "Since when do you call him Takashi?" A few of the others looked at them as well. The two of them blushed, but Cathy merely laid her head on Takashi's shoulder, which was apparently enough of an answer.

Shark shook his head with a chuckle. "Isn't this a treat? It's a festival about harmony, and we've got one, two, three, four couples in our group." He counted them off on his fingers.

"Though it may soon become five, Ura." Tokunosuke said, glancing over at Yamoto. The dark Hunter either paid him no mind or didn't even notice.

"Hey, it's starting!" Hikaya pointed out as fireworks began to erupt in the air. Fittingly, they were of all seven colors. Spotlights began to converge on the center stage, where Mr. Heartland was illuminated. In spite of the celebration, Yuma and Kotori scowled at him. However, there was a 10-year-old boy next to him. He had black eyes and wild white hair that appeared to be in seven intertwining spikes. His outfit was simple: A one-piece white jumpsuit that was divided into seven evenly-spaced parts from neck to feet.

"Greetings, Heartland!" Mr. Heartland told them. "I can see that everyone is having a grand time at the Rainbow Festival! Nijiya-sama would be proud of he could see the harmony between us all!" The crowd was cheering in response. "Like every year, a group of seven people will be called to the stage to give a combined plea to Nijiya!"

"Is it time, Heartland-sama?" The boy asked innocently.

Mr. Heartland smiled. "Of course, my boy." He went back to the crowd. "This young boy is my special guest for this year's Rainbow Festival. While I don't even know his name, he has earned my trust, so he will be the one to choose the lucky group of seven this year!"

Yuma was skeptical. 'Who is this kid…?' He thought.

The young boy moved forward, scanning the crowd with his dark eyes as Heartland moved the mic to him. Through his vision, however, there were multiple colored auras on the people. Then, his eyes fell on a red aura that was very strong, surrounded by six auras of the other colors. He pointed his finger out into the crowd… directly at Yuma. "The seven young men and women right there!" Colored spotlights illuminated Yuma, Kotori, Tetsuo, Takashi, Tokunosuke, Cathy, and Shark.

The seven kids in question were in shock. "No way! Us?!" Yuma cried.

"Yep! Come on up to the stage!" The boy said. Ecstatic, Yuma grabbed Kotori by the hand and moved toward the stage, the girl quickly keeping pace, the other five of them following him. Despite not being chosen, Ariel, Hikaya, Sei, Sachi, and Yamoto smiled at them. When the group of seven reached them, the young boy took the mic, and Mr. Heartland walked off the stage, shooting an unseen glare at Yuma. "Can I ask your names, everyone?" He held the mic to them.

Yuma grinned. "I'm Yuma Tsukumo!"

"Kotori Mizuki."

"Name's Tetsuo Takeda."

"Takashi Todoroki. Nice to meet you."

"Call me Tokunosuke Omoteura."

"Cathy, but you can call me Cat-chan."

"Ryoga Kamishiro, AKA Shark."

The young boy nodded. "Nice to meet you all. Yuma-sama, please stand on the red circle on the stage." He pointed to the circle in question.

"Uh, OK." Yuma said, moving so he stood on the red circle. The young boy moved the others until all were standing on a colored circle on the stage: Tetsuo on orange, Cathy on yellow, Kotori on green, Takashi on blue, Shark on indigo, and Tokunosuke on violet.

The boy then moved to the center of the star. "Everything is in place… Please, join me in reciting the plea!" He moved his arms out to his side, and the seven did the same, everyone looking up with closed eyes. "We stand united, hear our voice."

"To honor you again is our choice." Yuma followed.

"Hundreds of years we stood steadfast." Tetsuo said.

"Our times of chaos have all but passed." Cathy said.

"We cherish the colors you have blessed." Kotori said.

"Upon us, whose hearts are at rest." Takashi said.

"Now we plead to thee from the Earth." Shark said.

"So new harmony, we can birth." Tokunosuke said.

"Our wish to goes like thus: We ask thee, Nijiya, return to us!" All eight of them said at once. Then, the seven circles around them glowed, covering them in transparent cylinders of respectively colored light. The white star then began to change colors from the circles down to the center, converging so that each point was now a different color. The center of the circle then glowed, then rainbow-colored light shot up from under the young boy, covering him.

The crowd was in awe at the ceremony, but then, the boy in the center's eyes opened. "I feel it… Nijiya has heard your plea. Now, after centuries of waiting… he shall answer you all!" The boy leapt into the air, kept aloft by the light.

"Nani…?" Mr. Heartland gasped. Then, by shooting out his limbs, the light column was scattered, but the light was absorbed into his body. His body began to glow multiple colors as his eyes closed. Then, the jumpsuit he wearing began to change color from the feet up, the bottom section being violet and going backwards through the color spectrum until the final section of the suit turned red. The seven spikes of his hair then turned the rainbow colors, one color for each spike, starting at red from the right side (from the boy's view) and ending at violet on the left, proving that they did indeed intertwine. Then, his eyes opened, showing that his irises were changing colors across the rainbow, his pupils remaining black. Rainbow light began to radiate around him, forming wings of some sort.

Yuma and his friends were awed. "Who… Who are you?" Yuma asked.

The boy smiled down at him, then looked out into the crowd. "Everyone who has gathered… I thank you for coming." His voice was echoing now. "Centuries of honor across the planet… I could not be more thankful. I am the one you have tried to summon: The Rainbow Spirit… Nijiya!" Gasps of awe came across the crowd, especially Mr. Heartland. Nijiya then moved down to the stage in front of Yuma. "Yuma-sama… I must thank you especially. When I saw you and your friends in the crowd, I was shocked. The harmony you have with them is stronger than any that I have seen in centuries, especially for someone as young as you. I knew that your harmony would be enough to restore my true powers."

"Restore? What do you mean, Nijiya?" Yuma asked, his friends moving to his sides.

Nijiya looked sad. "Granting the world harmony all that time ago drained me of my powers, causing me to crash down to Earth. I went into a state of hibernation for all those centuries, only awaking years before today. When I saw the Rainbow Festival held here, I was touched at how this city had chosen to honor me. But year after year, the groups chosen, while they had bonds between them, were never enough to restore my powers. This year, I asked Heartland-sama to allow me to choose who came for the plea, and though my hopes were low, I found you and your friends… and now I have regained my old self. And for that… I offer you one wish that is within my power, Yuma-sama."

"One wish…" Yuma thought. He kept in mind that Nijiya said 'in his power', but he already had an idea. "All right then. Nijiya… I challenge you to a Duel!"

"A Duel? Me?" Nijiya asked.

Yuma nodded. "Dueling is the perfect way to connect with others and form bonds, making greater harmony. It's how I formed the bonds with all of my friends." He looked at them, and they smiled at him before he looked back at Nijiya.

Nijiya smiled at him. "With the harmony between you all, there is no way I can dispute your claims. I accept your challenge, Yuma-sama, but on one condition." Yuma looked confused. "Each of your friends must give you one of their Xyz Monsters. That way you have their power with you."

Yuma nodded and turned back to his friends. "Use this, Yuma." Kotori said as she handed him her card. Yuma smiled at what the card was.

"You might need it." Tetsuo said, handing him his card.

"Here ya go, Ura!" Tokunosuke handed him his card.

"You can win, Yuma-kun." Takashi said, handing him his card.

"I hope it helps!" Cathy said, giving him her card.

"Now show him what you can do!" Shark handed him his card.

"Arigatou, everyone." Yuma said, placing their monsters into his Extra Deck.

"Now, let us begin!" Njiya said, backing up to the other side of the stage.

Yuma grinned. "Kattobingu daze, ore!" He threw his D-Pad into the air. "Duel Disk, set!" It clacked onto his wrist and activated, unfolding the Card Zones. "D-Gazer, set!" His D-Gazer was placed on his face, flashing.

Nijiya raised his arm into the air after moving gracefully. "Duel Disk, set!" Rainbow light converged on his arm, converting into a white active D-Pad, Card Zones active, a Deck already inside. "D-Gazer, set!" A seven-point-star-shaped tattoo D-Gazer formed over his left eye, though the iris didn't stop changing colors.

"AR VISION, LINK ESTABLISHED." Both players' D-Gazers flashed, as well as those of the crowd, among them being Kaito, Jenaveve, Haruto, Orbital 7, Anna, Yuya, Akari, Tetsuko, Spade, the Thunder Kings, Droite, and Gauche. "ESTABLISHING LINK BETWEEN A AND B." The area morphed into the augmented reality.

"Show me, Yuma… show me your strength of your harmony!" Nijiya said.

"DUEL!"

Yuma LP:4000

Nijiya LP:4000

"Onore no turn… Draw!" Nijiya drew his card. "Field Magic, Rainbow Arena, hatsudo!" The field around them changed to look like it was in space, multiple different-colored stars and galaxies around them, the occasional shooting star flying by. The scenery was breathtaking, as the crowd noted. However, their battlefield had changed to a large seven-point-star-shaped platform that was rainbow-colored, the bottom of it being transparent and the edge being a ridge, the colors slowly changing.

"Whoa… what is this?" Takashi asked.

"The Rainbow Arena is a battle arena that regaining my powers has allowed me to create." Nijiya explained. "With this Field Magic active, Yuma-sama and I are allowed to use monsters in our hands, fields, or Graveyards in order to Xyz Summon our monsters." He picked another card from his hand. "Magic Card, Card Destruction, hatsudo. This forces us to discard our hands and draw cards equal to how many cards we drew." Both players dumped their hands, and Nijiya drew four cards while Yuma drew five. "Since Rainbow Arena is active, Rainbow Comet, Tokushu Shoukan!" From the starry sky, a twinkle was seen, and a comet shot toward the field. It was followed by a rainbow-colored comet tail. The comet slammed into the arena, somehow not damaging it. It was covered by a small rainbow-colored flame, but the comet itself was stark white.

Rainbow Comet: Lv.7 LIGHT Rock ATK:0/DEF:2000 (Defense Mode)

"Kaado ichi mai settei. Turn end!" Nijiya's facedown emerged.

"Ore no turn! Draw!" Yuma drew his card. He checked his Graveyard to see what Nijiya sent there. "This can work! Rainbow Arena no kouka hatsudo! Ore wa bochi no Reberu Yon no Gogogo Golem to, Kagetokage de Obarei (I Overlay the Level 4 Gogogo Golem and Kagetokage in my Graveyard)!" From violet portals, his signature Rock-Type monster and a shadowy lizard creature emerged, only to turn fully orange and violet and shoot into the air in a spiral. A spiral portal opened up, but for some reason, it was yellow. "Ni tai no monsuta de, Obarei Netwaaku kochiku!" The two monsters sailed inside the portal. "Ekushiizu Shoukan! Arawareyo, Cat Girl Magician!" An odd dark pink hat with two yellow-orange eye-like decorations emerged, then a human female form emerged from within the hat, clad in a dark pink and black outfit with a ponytail of dark violet hair. She was holding a staff with a cat-eye-like jewel on the end, then twirled and let out a "Meow!", circled by two yellow Overlay Units.

Cat Girl Magician: Rank 4 LIGHT Spellcaster/Xyz ATK:2000/DEF:1800 2 Overlay Units

"Nya~!" Cathy chirped.

"Impressive move, Yuma-sama. But there is one thing you should realize." Nijiya explained, making Yuma "Eh?" in response. "Since you Xyz Summoned Cat-chan-sama's Xyz Monster through Rainbow Arena's effect, you cannot Xyz Summon any more monsters this turn, unless you use Rainbow Arena's effect. However, you are able to use Rainbow Arena's effect as many times as you wish in one turn."

Yuma didn't look happy. "Great. I'm stuck with what I've got. Let's see if I've got anything else." He looked through his hand and Graveyard. "Oh! I can use these! Rainbow Arena no kouka hatsudo! Ore wa Reberu San no Zubaba Knight to, bochi no Gagaga Kaiser de, Obarei!" From Yuma's hand, a gold-and-red-armored warrior holding two swords with lightning bolt symbols leapt onto the field, and from a violet portal, a white-clad man with blue hair and a staff with the Gagaga symbol emerged. Both monsters then turned fully orange and spiraled into the air. Another spiral portal, this one being indigo, opened, and both monsters sailed inside. "Ni tai no monsuta de, Obarei netwaaku kochiku! Ekushiizu Shoukan!" A violet spike of energy erupted from the Field Spell. "Arawareyo, Black Ray Lancer!" A large black-armored monster with pink spikes and blue fin-like wings emerged, twirling its red spear around before pointing it at Nijiya and growling, its violet Overlay Units circling it.

Black Ray Lancer: Rank 3 DARK Beast-Warrior/Xyz ATK:2100/DEF:600 2 Overlay Units

"Shark, wanna do the honors?" Yuma asked.

"I might as well!" Shark said. "Black Ray Lancer, attack Rainbow Comet! Black Spear!" Lancer twirled its spear before throwing it at the white rock, striking right through it. The spear vanished and re-appeared in Lancer's hand, but the comet cracked violently before exploding, the shards changing colors.

"Rainbow Comet no kouka hatsudo." Nijiya said. "Since it was destroyed by battle, I can Special Summon 7 Rainbow Shard Tokens in its place!" The shards collected onto the field in seven places, each collection forming into a single shard of one of the rainbow colors.

Rainbow Shard Token x7: Lv.1 LIGHT Rock/Token ATK:0/DEF:0 (all Defense Mode)

"Seven monsters?!" Yuma cried. "But how?!"

Nijiya chuckled. "One of the cards I sent to the Graveyard from Card Destruction was Back Row Vacancy. As long as it remains in my Graveyard, both of us are allowed to use our Spell and Trap Card Zones as Monster Card Zones."

"Kuso…" Yuma groaned. "Oh well. I'll just go through them! Cat Girl Magician no kouka hatsudo!" The magician absorbed one of her Overlay Units into her staff. "Until the End Phase, her Attack Points are halved, but she can attack directly!"

Cat Girl Magician ATK:1000 1 Overlay Unit

Yuma looked at Cathy, and they both nodded. "Cat Girl Magician, attack Nijiya directly!" Cathy called out. The gem on Magician's staff glowed, then a cat-eye-shaped energy blast was fired right past the shards, striking Nijiya.

"Ngh! Impressive!" Nijiya said.

Nijiya LP:3000

"Yosh! Good start!" Yuma chirped. "Kaado ichi mai settei! Turn end!" His facedown emerged.

"Onore no turn! Draw!" Nijiya drew his card. "Rainbow Shard Token no kouka hatsudo. By releasing one, I can add one Traveler monster from my Deck to my hand. I release three of these Tokens!" The red, indigo, and violet shards exploded, sending out beams of light that shot into Nijiya's Decks. Then, a red beam, an indigo beam, and a violet beam shot from his Deck into his hand, becoming three cards. "Red Traveler – Rojad, Shoukan!" A red beam of light shot up from the arena, but twirled around and formed into a solid form: A completely red energy being in a jumpsuit… but the head was surprising: He looked exactly like Yuma (aside from being fully red, of course).

Red Traveler – Rojad: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

"Wha…?" Yuma breathed, shocked. The red being smiled at him before beginning to fly around the Rainbow Arena.

"Wait, that's a Level 7 monster!" Takashi cried.

"Indeed, but my Traveler monsters can be Normal Summoned without releasing any monsters." Nijiya explained. "It's a trade-off for their low power. Red Traveler – Rojad no kouka hatsudo. Upon its Normal Summon, I can add 1 Level 7 monster with 0 Attack and Defense Points from my Deck to my hand." A green beam of light shot from his Deck, becoming another card. "Magic Card, Quick Travel, hatsudo. It has two effects, but one of them allows me to Special Summon one Level 7 Traveler monster from my hand, which I shall do! Green Traveler – Verden, Tokushu Shoukan!" A fully green energy being shot from the arena, forming a female being in a jumpsuit, the head being identical to Kotori. Rojad flew past Verden, making her follow him to fly next to him.

Green Traveler – Verden: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

"Kaado ichi mai settei. Turn end!" Another facedown appeared on Nijiya's field.

"Ore no turn! Draw!" Yuma drew his card. He pointed at Cathy, who nodded.

"Cat Girl Magician, attack Green Traveler – Verden!" Cathy called out. The woman fired off the cat-eye blast from her staff.

However, Nijiya intercepted. "Trap Card, Spectrum Barrier, hatsudo!" A rainbow-colored barrier suddenly formed in front of Verden and Rojad, completely deflecting the attack. "I can only activate Spectrum Barrier if there are seven or more monsters on the field. During this turn, you cannot destroy any cards I control, aside from Spectrum Barrier, and I also take no Battle Damage."

Nijiya LP:3000

"Kuso…" Yuma groaned. "At least Tokens don't count as cards! Shark!"

Shark nodded. "Black Ray Lancer, attack one of the Rainbow Shard Tokens!" The finned monster threw its spear, striking and destroying the green shard.

"That did something, at least. But now what?" Looking at his hand, he saw what he could do. "Ah! Black Ray Lancer no kouka hatsudo! By using an Overlay Unit, I can negate the effects of a monster on the field until the End Phase, but since there's no limit on the effect, I use both of its Overlay Units to negate both Cat Girl Magician and Lancer itself!" Black Ray Lancer absorbed both of its Overlay Units into its chest. "Weakening Winds!" Lancer flapped its wings hard, sending out violet winds, one of which struck Cat Girl Magician, the other swirling around Lancer itself.

Black Ray Lancer: 0 Overlay Units

"What the hell are you doing, Yuma?" Shark griped.

Yuma smirked. "Watch and learn, Shark! Ore wa Reberu San no Kagemucha Knight to, bochi no Zubaba Knight to Gagaga Kaiser de, Obarei!" The two Overlay Units that Lancer had emerged from violet portals, then a shadowy monster with armor emerged from Yuma's hand. All three monsters then spiraled into the air, Kagemucha turning violet. A blue spiral portal opened up this time, and all three monsters sailed inside. "San tai no monsuta de, Obarei Netwaaku kochiku! Ekushiizu Shoukan! Arawareyo, Vaccingale!" From the violet, a blocky nurse-like monster emerged with a large blocky needle with green fluid, the nurse saying "Waku… Waku…" as it rose, three yellow Overlay Units circling it.

Vaccingale: Rank 3 LIGHT Machine/Xyz ATK:1800/DEF:1200 3 Overlay Units

"Of course! Yuma-kun used Black Ray Lancer's Overlay Units so he could Xyz Summon a new monster!" Takashi said.

"You do quite well in making use of what your friends have given you, Yuma-sama." Nijiya said. "But now, allow me to aid you in your efforts."

"Eh?" Yuma asked.

"Trap Card, Xyz Bridge, hatsudo! This card allows me to see your Extra Deck, choose one Rank 4 or below Xyz Monster in it, and Xyz Summon it to your field using Xyz Bridge as the Overlay Unit!" The image of Yuma's Extra Deck appeared on the AR field. "I select… Kurōkamibone!" The card image was highlighted, then a bridge of energy shot out from the Trap. "When there is nothing left for one to use, this bridge connects the Overlay Network!" A spiral portal opened up, this one being violet, and the bridge flew inside. "Ekushiizu Shoukan! Arawareyo, Kurōkamibone!" The new Xyz Monster emerged as what looked like a skeletal wolf, but all of the bones were black. It snarled before letting out a low growl, a single violet Overlay Unit circling it.

Kurōkamibone: Rank 4 DARK Zombie/Xyz ATK:2400/DEF:1300 1 Overlay Unit

"Why'd you Summon my Xyz Monster, Ura?" Tokunosuke asked, stumped.

"I want to see your field at its strongest: With all of your monsters together." Nijiya said. "Please, complete your turn."

Yuma nodded. "Kaado ichi mai settei! Turn end!"

"Onore no turn. Draw!" Nijiya drew his card. "Rainbow Shard Token no kouka hatsudo! I release my remaining Tokens to add three more Traveler monsters from my Deck to my hand!" The orange, yellow, and blue shards exploded, their light beams striking Nijiya's Deck before the beams became three more cards in his hand. "Violet Traveler – Moradin, Shoukan!" A violet light beam shot up from the arena, turning into a Traveler version of Tokunosuke. Its glasses even gleamed before it began flying around the arena.

Violet Traveler – Moradin: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

"Violet Traveler – Moradin no kouka hatsudo. During the turn I Normal Summon it, I can Normal Summon or Set one more monster. Orange Traveler – Narane, Shoukan!" This time the Traveler was orange, taking the image of Tetsuo.

Orange Traveler – Narane: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

"Kaado ni mai settei! Turn end!" Two facedowns emerged on Nijiya's field.

"Ore no turn! Draw!" Yuma drew his card.

"Trap Card, Xyz Bridge, hatsudo!" Nijiya flipped his facedown.

"Another one?" Yuma gasped.

"Yes. Allow me to gaze your Extra Deck once more!" The image of Yuma's Extra Deck appeared. "This time I select… Buriki no Taikō (Tinplate Archduke)!" Tinplate Archduke's card was highlighted, and another energy bridge shot out from the Trap Card. "When there is nothing left for one to use, this bridge connects the Overlay Network!" Another spiral portal, orange this time, opened up, and the bridge flew inside. "Ekushiizu Shoukan! Arawareyo, Buriki no Taikō!" From above, the googly-eyed Machine dropped down, impacting the ground before rising with its sword, a single orange Overlay Unit circling it.

Tinplate Archduke: Rank 4 EARTH Machine/Xyz ATK:2200/DEF:1200 1 Overlay Unit

"Five Xyz Monsters… representing your harmony with each of them…" Nijiya mused. "…Yet there is still one more. Yuma-sama!" He got Yuma's attention. "I see it in your eyes… Among your harmony lies a love that very few have paralleled throughout the centuries, represented by two specific monsters. If you have what is needed to Summon them both… Please, do so! Allow me to see the symbols of the bond between you and Kotori-sama!"

Yuma looked at Kotori briefly, then at his hand. He had two Level 4 monsters in his hand and one in his Graveyard, but that wouldn't be enough. Then he remembered that Cat Girl Magician still had one Overlay Unit. "Yatta! All right, Nijiya, if you want to see them both, then I'll show you! Cat Girl Magician no kouka hatsudo!" The feline girl absorbed her last Overlay Unit.

Cat Girl Magician ATK:1000 0 Overlay Units

The Emperor's Key flashed. "I wasn't planning on using these monsters… but you're right, Nijiya. These two monsters will show our bond much better! Ore wa Reberu Yon no Gagaga Magician to, Ganbara Knight de, Obarei!" His signature Spellcaster-Type monster appeared on the field alongside a knight with two powerful shields, the two monsters turning fully violet and yellow before spiraling into the air.

Yuma looked back at Kotori and nodded, getting a return nod from Kotori as she stepped forward. "Atashi wa bochi no Reberu Yon no Gogogo Golem to, Kagetokage de Obarei!" Cat Girl Magician's Overlay Units returned to the field via violet portals, only to turn fully orange and violet again and spiral into the air.

"Ni tai no monsuta de, Obarei Netwaaku kochiku!" Yuma and Kotori both said, each referring to a different galaxy portal that had opened up. However, one galaxy portal was glowing red, while the other was glowing green. Two monsters apiece sailed into each portal. "Ekushiizu Shoukan!" Both portals gave off a bright flash of light. "Arawareyo!"

"Nanbaazu Sanjuukyuu (Number 39): Kibou Ou Hope!"

"Nanbaazu Juusan (Number 13): Suki Joou Love!"

The numbers "39" and "13" formed and flashed in red and blue, then both monsters' sealed forms arose. The two objects shifted and changed until the warrior and mage's bodies were fully formed. They crossed their sword and staff before taking a team stance, their Overlay Units circling them.

Number 39: Aspiring Emperor Hope: Rank 4 LIGHT Warrior/Xyz ATK:2500/DEF:2000 2 Overlay Units

Number 13: Devoted Empress Love: Rank 4 LIGHT Spellcaster/Xyz ATK:2400/DEF:1600 2 Overlay Units

Nijiya smiled. "Yes… This is what I wanted to see. Seven Xyz Monsters, all from different people, on one field. You have truly impressed me, Yuma-sama! No one that I have witnessed has performed such a feat!"

Yuma smiled back. "Well, I couldn't have done it without the help of Rainbow Arena, y'know!" Nijiya rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. Yuma then grinned. "All right, move in! Kibou Ou Hope, attack Red Traveler – Rojad! Hope Sword Slash!" Hope drew his blades and shot forward.

"Trap Card, Waboku, hatsudo. This prevents my monsters from being destroyed by battle this turn, and no Battle Damage is incurred." Rojad saw Hope coming and grabbed both of his blades, forcing him away. Hope moved back to Yuma's field.

"Darn it! I can hardly get through to him!" Yuma griped. "Turn end!"

Cat Girl Magician ATK:2000

"Onore no turn… Draw!" Nijiya drew his card. "It… is time…"

"Nani?" Yuma and Kotori gasped.

Nijiya smiled widely at them. "Summoning all your Xyz Monsters was your version of the harmony! Now, allow me to show you my version! Rainbow Arena no kouka hatsudo!" Three cards from Nijiya's hand turned yellow, blue, and indigo before shooting onto the field, becoming three Traveler monsters: Yellow looked like Cathy, blue looked like Takashi, and indigo looked like Shark. The three of them joined the other four Travelers, the seven of them flying in a rainbow formation.

Yellow Traveler – Amaril: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

Blue Traveler – Azulu: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

Indigo Traveler – Anilo: Lv.7 LIGHT Fairy ATK:0/DEF:0

"They have all gathered to me! Let us show you our harmony!" Nijiya declared, thrusting a hand to the air. "Onore wa, Reberu Nana no Rojad, Narane, Amaril, Verden, Azulu, Anilo to, Moradin de… OBAREI!" All seven Travelers became Overlay Streaks, but instead of all turning yellow and shooting up, they all remained their original colors, then turned off their path toward the center.

Yuma and his friends were shocked, as were the people in the crowd. "An Xyz Summon… with SEVEN Monsters!"

In the dark and starry sky above, a white galaxy portal opened up, but it quickly changed to look like a white hole. "Nana tai no monsuta de… Obarei Netwaaku kochiku!" One by one, all seven Overlay Units shot into the white hole, and a powerful burst of light erupted from it. Nijiya's eyes glowed as a card made of rainbow light formed in his hand. He held the card aloft. "EKUSHIIZU SHOUKAN!" The card let out seven streaks of light in different colors. From where the white hole once stood, a form began to descend, covered by multicolored light. "Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet…" The colors that Nijiya named off were the colors of its Overlay Units: One for each color. One arm was slowly held out, dissipating the light to reveal a white-clad arm, a white glove on his hand. The other arm was identical. "Seven colors that come together to form the ultimate harmony!" His legs extended, also being fully white, wearing white boots, but the bottoms of his outfit appeared to be horizontally striped. The light faded from his torso, revealing that he was wearing sort of jumpsuit with a vest over it. His whole attire was completely white, and there also appeared to be a belt around his waist. "Rainbow Traveler…" Finally, his head was revealed: It was a male figure with a humanoid skin tone rather than be white like the rest of him. His hair WAS white, howver, arranged in seven spikes that formed somewhat of a seven-pointed star when looking at him, rather than Nijiya's intertwining spikes. "ARCORIS!" The monster's eyes opened, which were also white, before he looked at Yuma's group and smiled before moving into a sitting position, his arms folded and legs crossed.

Rainbow Traveler – Arcoris: Rank 7 LIGHT Fairy/Xyz ATK:0/DEF:0 7 Overlay Units

"Awesome… I've never seen an Xyz Summon with more than five monsters before!" Yuma said, awed. "But… why does Arcoris have no Attack or Defense Points?"

"Judge a monster not by its Attack Points, Yuma-sama." Nijiya said. "Arcoris's power is merely dormant at the moment. Soon, his power will be realized. Orange Traveler – Narane no kouka hatsudo!" An image of the Tetsuo look-alike appeared behind Arcoris. "If Narane is used to Xyz Summon Arcoris, Arcoris gains 1000 Attack Points during the turn he is Summoned!" Arcoris gained an orange aura, looking at his hands with a smile.

Arcoris ATK:1000

"Rainbow Traveler – Arcoris, attack Vaccingale!" Nijiya ordered.

"Nani?!" Yuma gasped. Arcoris soared higher into the air, forming a ball of white energy in his hand before throwing it at the blocky nurse. However, Vaccingale blocked it with her syringe before firing a green energy beam in retaliation, shocking Arcoris.

"Arcoris no kouka hatsudo! If he would ever be destroyed, I can remove an Overlay Unit from him to prevent his destruction!" Arcoris grabbed hold of his green Overlay Unit and slammed it into his chest, disintegrating the Unit and forming a green aura around him. The laser beam struck Arcoris, but the Traveler stuck it out, resisting the beam.

Nijiya LP:2200

Nijiya brushed off the force from the attack. "Whenever Arcoris prevents his destruction by his own effect, his Attack Points increase by 700." All of a sudden, Arcoris's boots slowly turned green. Also, a green scarf formed around Arcoris's neck, and his white hair occasionally radiated green.

Arcoris ATK:1700 6 Overlay Units (Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Indigo, Violet)

Arcoris suddenly groaned in pain, an image of Green Traveler – Verden appearing behind him. "Curses. I forgot. If Green Traveler – Verden is detached as an Overlay Unit from Arcoris, Arcoris will be destroyed." Then Nijiya smiled. "But that doesn't mean he will leave. By using his effect again, Arcoris can protect itself while gaining 700 more Attack Points!" Arcoris quickly grabbed his red Overlay Unit and slammed it into his chest, a red aura forming around him, soothing his pain. Then his gloves turned red, a red scarf formed around his neck alongside the green one, and his hair began to change red alongside the green change.

Arcoris ATK:2400 5 Overlay Units (Orange, Yellow, Blue, Indigo, Violet)

"As I said, Yuma, Arcoris's power is mostly dormant. He can only access it in danger, but as he does, he will become much stronger." Nijiya said. "Kaado ichi mai settei. Turn end!" The last card in his hand was placed facedown.

Arcoris ATK:1400

"Ore no turn! Draw!" Yuma drew his card. He looked at Arcoris. "I can't attack that thing, or else it gets stronger!"

"I'm afraid you don't have a choice, Yuma-sama." Nijiya said. "As long as Blue Traveler – Azulu is attached to Arcoris, you must attack him at least once per turn."

"Kuso…" Yuma growled. "If I have to attack, I'll have to make the best of it. Kibou Ou Hope, attack Arcoris!" Hope drew his swords again and dashed forward.

"Arcoris no kouka hatsudo!" Arcoris grabbed his indigo Overlay Unit and slammed it against his chest, forming an indigo aura, allowing it to withstand it as Hope slashed him across his chest.

Nijiya LP:1100

"The damage is worth it, as Arcoris grows ever stronger!" The top of Arcoris's jumpsuit (above the belt) turned fully indigo, but the vest stayed white. An indigo scarf joined the red and green, and indigo was added to Arcoris's color-changing hair. "There is something else I must state. As Arcoris uses Overlay Units, it gains effects for each one. As Anilo was the third Overlay Unit used, Arcoris's Defense Points become 3000!"

Arcoris ATK:2100/DEF:3000 4 Overlay Units (Orange, Yellow, Blue, Violet)

"How strong can that thing get?" Cathy cried.

Yuma growled. "Turn end!"

"Onore no turn! Draw!" Nijiya drew his card. "Arcoris, attack Kibou Ou Hope!" Arcoris gathered energy into his hand, which was a swirl of red, green, and indigo energy, then he fired it off as three energy shots. Hope, however, dashed forward, dodging all three shots while drawing his swords. "Arcoris no kouka hatsudo!" Arcoris grabbed the orange Overlay Unit and slammed it against his chest, gaining an orange aura that protected from the incoming slash. After he recovered, the main color of the bottom of his jumpsuit was filled in, being orange. An orange scarf formed around his neck, and orange was added to his ever-changing hair.

Nijiya LP:700

Arcoris ATK:2800 3 Overlay Units (Yellow, Blue, Violet)

"The time has almost come, Yuma-sama. Turn end!"

"Ore no turn! Draw!" Yuma drew his card. A smile came on his face. "Yatta! Magic Card, Unprecedented Wind, hatsudo! This lets me give Hope 1000 Attack and Defense Points until the End Phase!" Wind swirled around Hope, powering him up.

Hope ATK:3500/DEF:3000

"This should be enough damage for the win!" Takashi chirped.

"Hope, attack Arcoris again!" Hope moved forward to attack Arcoris.

"Quick-Play Magic, Rainbow Crush, hatsudo!" Arcoris suddenly went wide-eyed and rigid. "This card allows me to destroy Rainbow Traveler – Arcoris, but I will activate his effect to prevent the destruction!" Arcoris grabbed his yellow Overlay Unit and slammed it against his chest, giving himself a yellow aura to soothe himself. Then, his vest was filled in with yellow (having white trim), a yellow scarf formed around his neck, and yellow was added to his hair.

Arcoris ATK:3500 2 Overlay Units (Blue, Violet)

"You've gotta be kidding me!" Yuma cried. Hope clashed with Arcoris.

"Arcoris no kouka hatsudo!" Arcoris grabbed his violet Overlay Unit and slammed it against his chest, giving himself a violet aura to protect himself from the attack. Since Hope was a Number, he wasn't affected as all. After the attack, the white stripes on the bottom of Arcoris's jumpsuit turned violet, a violet scarf formed around his neck, and violet was added to his hair.

Arcoris ATK:4200 1 Overlay (Blue)

Yuma was panting. "Yuma…" Kotori breathed.

"K… Kaado ichi mai settei. Turn end!" Yuma's facedown emerged.

"Onore no turn. As Arcoris has used 4 Overlay Units, I can draw 2 cards per turn instead of just one. Draw!" Nijiya drew his cards. "Yuma-sama… I am disappointed. You may have Summoned everyone's monsters, yet the only one performing the offensive is Hope. You are not using the harmony between you and your friends." He closed his eyes. "I am wondering how you managed to restore my powers now…"

"Don't underestimate me!" Yuma shouted, making Nijiya look at him. Yuma looked determined. "Even if Hope is the only one attacking, that doesn't mean he's fighting alone. Fighting together isn't limited to physical combinations! Every time I Duel, all of my friends are behind me even when I don't use their cards! That's what our harmony is: Even when we're far away from each other…"

"Our spirits are always together!" His friends said with Yuma. Suddenly, the seven of them glowed the colors that they were associated with during the ceremony.

Nijiya's eyes went awed. "Yuma-sama…" A smile came over him. "You are correct! I was foolish to think you were acting alone. I should know this better than anyone. Very well! You shall face our full power! Arcoris!" The monster nodded with a smile. "Magic Card, Hammer Shot, hatsudo! This card allows me to destroy the monster on the field with the highest Attack Points, which is Arcoris! But his effect shall activate!" A large hammer formed from above and began to come down, but Arcoris grabbed his blue Overlay Unit and slammed it against his chest, giving himself a blue aura. He then looked up and punched the incoming hammer, obliterating it. "Now that all the Overlay Units have been used… Arcoris is at full power!" Arcoris curled into a ball as he felt power go through him. A blue scarf formed around his neck, making a complete set of seven, and blue was added to his hair, making it change colors in the same fashion as Rainbow Arena. His body began to glow, then Arcoris uncurled himself with a shout, his eyes shooting open to reveal a vibrant blue in place of the white eyes he had. His entire body was glowing, and the scarves were flowing in the wind.

Arcoris ATK:4900 0 Overlay Units

"4900… Attack Points…?" Cathy whimpered.

"No way…" Shark breathed.

"Is this it, Ura…?" Tokunosuke whimpered.

"Yuma's still got Hope and Love! He can easily block Arcoris's attack!" Tetsuo said.

"That would be true, if not for Arcoris's effects! As I mentioned, with each Overlay Unit he absorbs, a new effect is added to his repertoire. With all seven removed, he has the following effects: He can attack directly for half the damage, you cannot activate Magic or Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step, he inflicts Piercing Damage, he can attack all of your monsters at the same time, and he cannot be targeted by card effects! The Travelers have given him their power, making Arcoris unstoppable!"

"It's over!" Takashi cried.

However, Yuma didn't look fazed. "Yuma?" Kotori asked.

"You say he's unstoppable, Nijiya?" Yuma said before grinning at him. "Then bring it on!"

"I shall answer your zeal! Rainbow Traveler – Arcoris, attack Yuma's entire field!" Nijiya called out. Arcoris let out a shout before raising his hands to the air. Light of all seven rainbow colors began to gather above him, forming a small sphere. As energy gathered, the sphere grew larger and large, rainbow-colored lightning coming off of it. Soon, the sphere was enormous, enough so that Arcoris was struggling to keep it up. "Harmonized Spirit Explosion!" With a yell, Arcoris threw his hands forward, causing the energy sphere to barrel toward Yuma's field. His friends looked scared, but Yuma stood fast. The energy sphere made contact, and a HUGE rainbow-colored explosion erupted from the spot, sending light everywhere in a beautiful spectacle.

"WHOA!" Spade said, shielding himself from the wind.

"Yuma!" Anna and Yuya cried.

"What power…" Kaito breathed.

The smoke finally managed to pass, with Arcoris panting on Nijiya's field. "It appears your harmony… was not enough to defeat me."

"You wanna bet, Nijiya?" Yuma's voice asked.

"Nani?" The smoke cleared from around Yuma's field, showing every single monster intact… and an active Trap Card. "But how? Arcoris's effect prevents you from activating Magic or Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step!"

Yuma smirked. "I activated the effect of Trap Tramp in my hand." An image of a dark-pink-furred dog appeared behind him. "By banishing him from my hand during the Battle Phase, I can activate any Trap Cards, regardless of your cards' effects. Using Trap Tramp, I activated the Trap Card Lone Emissary of Reconciliation, which prevents all my monsters from being destroyed by battle this turn, and any Battle Damage that I would take from the battles becomes 500 each."

Yuma LP:500

"You brought yourself so close to defeat just to protect your friends' monsters…" Nijiya breathed. "It is no wonder you were the one to restore me."

Yuma nodded. "I would give my life to protect those that I care about." He looked at his friends with a smile, mostly Kotori. 'And I already have given my life once.'

Nijiya smiled. "You are a better person that I thought you were, Yuma-sama. Knowing you, you will pull a victory on your next turn. Turn end!"

Yuma placed his hand on his Deck. "Everyone is behind me for my final turn! Ore-tachi no turn! Draw!" He drew his card. A grin overtook him. "You must be psychic, Nijiya, because this Duel is ours! Magic Card, Xyz Constellation Sword, hatsudo!" A powerful sword shot down from above, landing in front of Hope. It was an elegant sword with a white hilt. "This card lets me choose a Warrior-Type Xyz Monster I control, and it gains 1000 Attack Points for each other Xyz Monster I control until the End Phase!" Hope grabbed hold of the sword and held it aloft, the hilt turning red and Hope glowing red. A bright shine came from the sword, covering the other Xyz Monsters on Yuma's field. The seven monsters gained a colored circle under them that went with their owners, the seven of them making a constellation of sorts.

Hope ATK:8500

"My intuition was correct… You have earned this, Yuma-sama!" Nijiya said. "Go ahead, take your victory!"

Yuma nodded, looking at his friends, who nodded. "Kibou Ou Hope!" All seven of them called out. "Attack Rainbow Traveler – Arcoris!" The seven Xyz Monsters flew into the air and positioned themselves in a hexagon formation, Hope in the middle. "Hope Sword…" Hope held the Constellation Sword aloft, and the other six Xyz Monsters became colored energy, being absorbed into the sword and conducted into Hope, changing his color scheme to more rainbow-esque. "SEVEN STAR SLASH!" Retracting his face armor, Hope charged forward with a yell toward Arcoris, ready to strike. However, this time, Arcoris couldn't defend himself, and Hope slashed across him with the sword, the slash being red. He slashed six more times with the sword, the slashes being orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple. The final slash made Hope go right through Arcoris, and all seven slash marks re-formed, forming a seven-pointed star. Arcoris's body was rigid as colored beams of light began to shoot out of him, but he closed his eyes with a gentle smile before his body exploded in a massive amount of multicolored light.

Nijiya closed his eyes with a smile. "You win…"

Yuma LP:500

Nijiya LP:0 – LOSER

Yuma's face appeared with the word "WIN" as the buzzer sounded, and the Augmented Reality vanished. "YATTA!" Yuma and his friends all cheered. The crowd erupted into applause at the Duel.

Nijiya walked up to Yuma and his friends. "Arigatou, Yuma. That Duel was worthy to be called legendary. I will always be grateful to you for this."

"Me too, Nijiya. I never thought I'd be able to restore your powers." Yuma said. He held out a hand, which Nijiya shook. Yuma felt positive energy go through his body during the shake.

"You make friends through Duels… I suppose that makes us friends now." Nijiya said, getting a laugh out of Yuma. "I am honored to be your friend." He looked back and forth between Yuma and Kotori. "Hmm… perhaps the next generation will be able to call me back to Earth. I am immortal, after all." He chuckled before rising into the air and looking at the crowd. "And to everyone here, I thank you all again for honoring me throughout the years, and for using my gift of harmony to make your world prosper!" Nijiya gathered energy into his hands before firing it up, the energy exploding into a powerful rainbow that spread all over the sky, aweing everyone in the crowd. "With my power restored, I will from now on answer your pleas when you honor me every year on this Festival! Remember, everyone: As long as your hearts stay connected, harmony will never die! Farewell!" Rainbow-colored energy covered his body, then Nijiya shot up into the clouds, vanishing with a twinkle.

Yuma looked up to the clouds with his friends, all of them smiling. 'Ja ne, Nijiya… but I'm sure we'll meet again someday.'
