Ulrich362: Enjoy the chapter.
A few days later...
Link sure did changed the Dueling world as Dawn, and Ace planned it. Ace was still somewhat embarrassed whenever he saw people using Link Summoning but he was also super happy they liked what he came up with. Of course the new rules they came up with were fustrating but soon they got use to it to where Dawn, and Ace came up with something to somehow make a new Turbo Dueling style but uses Link. These were born as Speed Duels while the regular fields with the new rules were called Master Duels.
"Ace, time to get up." said a kind voice.
"H-Huh?" Ace slowly wake up.
Blue Frost was standing next to his bed.
"It's morning sleepy-head." Blue Frost smiled. "Plus, your big sisters all want to see you."
Ace yawned stretching himself, "Morning Blue Frost."
Blue Frost smiled before kissing his forehead. "Did you have good dreams?"
Ace blushed at it before nodding, "Y-Yeah."
She smiled before offering his hand. "Want to go see your big sisters?"
Ace smiled as he took her hand.
As they walked downstairs he heard voices.
"What do you think he'll name it?" Kelly's voice asked.
"I don't know, I just hope he likes it." Terri's voice answered.
"We'll find out soon enough." Dawn's voice added as the six of them started giggling happily.
Ace looked confused turning to Blue Frost.
She just shrugged. "I don't know."
They soon entered downstairs.
"Hi Ace." Dawn smiled walking over and hugging him.
"Hey big sis." Ace smiled hugging her back.
"We have a surprise for you." Alex smiled.
"You do?" Ace asked curiously.
"Yup." Stacy nodded as they walked up before she revealed a stuffed bunny rabbit.
Ace looked surprised seeing it letting out a little gasp.
"Do you like him?" Terri asked.
Ace smiled as he hugged the stuffed bunny, "I love him!"
His sisters all smiled seeing that as Zarc and Ray walked into the room.
"Oh, you're awake?" Zarc inquired with a smile.
"I got him up Zarc." Blue Frost smiled.
"We can see that." Ray smiled before picking Ace up. "I think it's time you get to do something Dawn did when she was a little girl."
"Hm?" Ace looked confused.
"Do you want to spend the day with mommy?" Ray asked.
Ace smiled hugging her.
"Well then lets go have a mommy and Ace day." Ray smiled. "We'll be back later tonight."
"Okay Ray." Zarc smiled before kissing Ace's forehead, "Have fun Ace."
"Okay Daddy." Ace smiled.
Ray smiled before walking off with Ace.
"Ok, they're gone so now we can get everything ready." Alex smiled.
"Where should we start?" Lilly smiled.
"Getting the balloons." Stacy suggested.
"Right." Kelly smiled nodding.
The six girls all giggled at that.
"Well it sounds like you all know what you want to do so lets head to the store." Zarc chuckled.
They nodded walking off.
Meanwhile with Ray, and Ace...
"Have I told you how creative you are Ace?" Ray asked him.
Ace blushed at that being modest, "I-I'm not that creative..."
"You made a whole new type of Summoning and everybody loves it." Ray pointed out. "Your daddy and I love it too."
Ace blushed more hearing that. Ray just smiled. "Ok, I'll stop for now but I think you'll like where we're going."
"W-Where are we going?" Ace asked her.
"The zoo." Ray answered.
Hearing that Ace looked eager. Ray smiled. "Someone's excited."
At that the arrived at their destination.
"What do you want to see first?" Ray asked with a smile.
"Can I see the Bobcats first?" Ace smiled.
Ray turned to a map before smiling back. "Alright, come on they're this way."
Ace nodded as he followed his mother. The two of them walked down a path before reaching the Bobcats.
"Wow." Ace smiled seeing the Bobcats as they played around with each other.
Ray just smiled seeing Ace's excitement. That was before Ace sees something was in front of him seeing another Bobcat a bit smaller then the others was looking in front of him with curious eyes.
Ray noticed and looked at the cat a bit nervously. "Ace be careful."
Ace looked surprised before he smiled, "Hey little guy. Are you doing okay?"
Hearing that the Bobcat started purring rubbing itself on the glass that was keeping him, and Ace apart as Ace placed a hand on it as the Bobcat pressed it's body trying to feel his hand.
"Hey, young man get away from the glass." said a male voice.
Ace turned. It was a worker at the zoo walking up to him. "We don't want anyone upsetting the animals."
"I'm not upsetting him sir. He just wants to say hi." Ace smiled to him. "I didn't noticed he was in front of me at first."
"Well, maybe say hi from a little farther back." the worker told him. "We don't want his mom getting mad because she thinks you're hurting her baby."
Ace turned to see a bigger Bobcat was eyeing him as he could tell she's giving him a warning stare. A bit off-guard he took a couple of steps back. The bigger Bobcat looked at him before lying down as the small one sat near the glass.
"Th-Thanks mister." Ace told the worker.
He nodded calmly as Ray smiled standing next to Ace before sending Zarc a quick message.
"What do you and Dawn think of a kitten?"
She waited until she got a reply,
"A kitten? Not that I don't mind we think it's a wonderful idea but why?"
"Ace and I are at the zoo like we planned and he likes the Bobcats, I think he'd like to have a pet cat." Ray explained before turning to Ace. "Want to go see the monkeys?"
Ace turned as he smiled nodded before saying to the small Bobcat, "Bye see ya later."
It yawned at him before lying down before Ace and Ray walked off.
"That was cool." Ace smiled.
"I'm glad." Ray smiled.
They walked before they made it to where the monkeys were at.
"Young man, you look like you're fairly lucky." a worker smiled seeing them. "Would you like to do something special?"
"Special?" Ace asked curious.
"That's right, now tell me young man do you know how to play Duel Monsters?" the worker inquired.
"Uh..." Ace wasn't sure how to answer it. "I am learning."
"Oh, well that's ok." the man smiled kindly. "Do you want to have a game with Max?"
"Max?" Ace asked. "Who's that?"
As he said that a monkey holding two decks of cards walked up to him.
"Whoa." Ace said amazed seeing this.
Ray chuckled, "This is new."
"Well, Max here likes dueling and making friends. So what do you say, do you want to use one of the special decks and have a friendly match?" the worker asked.
Ace looked at the Decks before looking at the monkey named Max, and smiled "I love too."
The monkey nodded happily before holding out the decks for Ace to pick one.
Ace looked over the Decks wondering which one to pick. Soon he chose the one in the monkey's left hand. The monkey nodded giving it to him before sitting down.
A few minutes later...
"Now I attack and I win." Ace smiled winning the duel.
"Great job Ace." Ray smiled who had been recording the duel upon the worker's permission.
The monkey put its cards down before walking over and hugging Ace. Ace looked surprised at this before smiling hugging him back. Max smiled before picking up the cards and walking back to the worker before getting a banana.
"Looks like Max wants to be your friend." the worker smiled.
"I want to be his friend too." Ace smiled. "Bananas are my favorite fruit."
"Well, how about if we promise to come see Max again with everybody ok?" Ray asked him.
"Okay mommy." Ace smiled as he held his pinkie for Max.
Max looked at him in confusion.
"Oh this..." Ace smiled entangling his other pinkie with his other. "Is called a pinkie promise. It's a special promise we make as friends, and start a bond. Big sis Terri said their really special."
Ray smiled as Max nodded and let Ace make the promise.
"Thanks for the match Max." Ace smiled. "When I get some time I'll make a Link monster for you."
Max nodded in confusion before walking off with the worker.
"I don't think Max knows what Link Monsters are yet Ace, and..." Ray started before glancing at her watch. "Oh, we should think about going."
Ace turned in confusion.
"Well, we don't want to see everything and we can come back with everybody soon ok Ace?" Ray asked with a smile before looking at her watch again. "Well... maybe one more thing before we go, whatever you want to see."
"The parrots?" Ace smiled.
Ray just smiled before nodding. They walked to where the parrots are. Ray smiled seeing Ace's happy face.
"Is everything set?"
"Yeah." Zarc replied.
"Ok, we'll be there soon. He'll love seeing everybody." Ray messaged before smiling and turning to Ace.
He was staring at the parrots in awe as they cawed, and fly around.
"Are you enjoying yourself?" Ray asked.
"Yes." Ace smiled.
"I'm glad to hear that." Ray smiled.
Ace continued looking to the parrots with a smile. Ray just smiled gently. Ace asked, "Mommy can I ask something?"
"What is it baby?" Ray inquired.
"Is something special suppose to happen today?" Ace asked her.
"Special, why do you ask?" Ray asked.
"I can't remember but it feels like we should celebrate something." Ace answered.
Ray just smiled. "Come on, we should head back."
Ace nodded as they walked off. The two of them started heading home only for Ray to turn towards the park they usually went to instead.
"Mommy?" Ace asked confused.
"Is something wrong?" Ray asked while continuing towards the park.
"Why are we going to the park?" Ace asked.
"We are?" Ray asked. "I didn't notice."
Ace took her hand.
They walked into the park where...
"Surprise!" called all of Ace's friends and family. "Happy Birthday!"
Ace looked surprised.
"Happy birthday little brother." Dawn smiled walking up and hugging him.
Ace hugged her back, "You all really had me!"
His sisters all smiled.
"It wasn't easy keeping it secret but the surprise worked." Alex smiled.
Dawn sniffed before asking, "Ace why do you smell like monkey?"
Ace giggled, "Because I got hugged by one."
"A monkey?" Rin asked looking to Ray before she explained what happened.
"Oh, that sounds fun." Terri smiled.
"Dueled by a monkey?" Lilly giggled. "Jaden did the same one time."
"Oh yeah." Sora chuckled. "I almost forgot about that."
"So now that the birthday boy is here what do you want to do Ace?" Zuzu asked.
"I don't know actually." Ace answered.
"How about tag?" Stacy suggested.
Ace upon hearing that tapped her before running.
"Oh you..." Stacy started before laughing as the thirteen kids started running all over the park.
The ones not playing chuckled.
"We had to go through a lot to get here, things most of us would rather never have had to go through." Leo Akaba admitted. "Then again, seeing them like this, it was all worth it."
"Yeah." Zarc nodded agreeing. "And... I wish Sardon would never took control."
"I don't." Ray told him. "If he hadn't, Dawn wouldn't have all of her younger sisters and we wouldn't have so many incredible friends."
"So should we thank him?" Julie chuckled.
"No, just appreciate that something bad led to something good." Yuri smiled. "Actually, I've been thinking about something if you don't mind Mr. Sakaki, you too Declan."
"Hm?" Declan, and Yusho turned to him.
"You heard I shut down Duel Academy right?" Yuri asked.
"Yes we did." Yusho nodded.
"I've been thinking, and looking into a few things. I'm wondering if we shouldn't close all the Dueling Schools and replace them with one. A single school for people from any dimension." Yuri mentioned.
"And you want us to be teachers?" Declan asked.
"I don't know." Yuri admitted.
"Well I say that's wonderful." Yusho smiled.
Yuri smiled back. "I hoped you would feel that way, and actually I did have one other thought. A class taught by six sisters."
They instantly knew what six sisters he means. Zuzu smiled, "What class did you have planned for Terri, Stacy, and the others?"
Yuri turned to her. "That's the part we'll have to figure out. Or I guess they will."
They all nodded at that.
"Though, I doubt people will be happy if LID and You Show closed." Yuri frowned.
"But we will tell them it will bring out something more fun then the two combined." Ray pointed out.
"True, by the way how are you feeling Rin?" Celina asked.
"Crampish, and a bit treated unfairly." Rin frowned. "I missed going on those rides with Yugo, and everything else."
Ray rubbed her back. "I've been there, but it's worth it."
"When we'll your baby come again Rin?" Yuto asked.
"It should be October 26th...ish." Yugo answered.
"I'm so glad everything went to this." Zuzu smiled.
"You're right about that." Yuya smiled before Stacy ran up to them and tapped Zuzu's arm.
"Tag."
"Huh? Hey what are you...?" Zuzu asked before smiling, "Oh get back here Stace!"
She soon started to run after Stacy who started laughing.
A while later...
Ace started laughing lying on the grass breathing a bit from the hard running.
"Out of breath little bro?" Terri asked.
"Y-Yeah." Ace nodded with a smile chuckling.
"So what next, cake and presents?" Stacy asked.
"Or another game?" Lilly suggested.
"Or stories?" Kelly asked.
"What kind of stories?" Ace smiled sitting up hugging his knees.
"Before you were born." Kelly answered.
"Whoa." Ace said amazed.
"Want to hear about it?" Lilly asked.
"Yeah yeah!" Ace nodded.
After the stories...
"And well, not long after that you were born." Dawn finished.
Ace looked really amazed, and in awe hearing all of that.
"Ace...?" Alex asked nervously thinking he was upset.
"You all are so brave." Ace smiled making his response.
"Oh, thanks." Alex blushed.
"Hopefully the stories we can tell people are more happy and less... how would you describe everything that happened?" Stacy asked her sisters.
"Well it started as a simple mission to prove myself but over time we managed to get what we want in the end." Lilly smiled.
"All of us did." Alex smiled.
"Hey, are you guys coming?" Haru asked. "We're about to have cake and ice cream but the birthday boy needs to make his wish."
Ace started laughing as he ran over. His sisters laughed and ran over with him. Tate smiled as he asked the other five boys, "This is great huh?"
"Yeah, you can say that again." Hart smiled.
"You know I never once thought something like this will happen after everyone each of us been through before we met." Leo smiled.
"Yeah, you've got a point." Sora smiled.
"Trust me things I see were out of wack but never anything like this." Mokuba smiled.
As he said that Haru, Ace, and the girls ran up.
"And their's the newest part of us!" Mokuba grinned patting Haru's back.
"Huh?" Haru asked in confusion.
"What he means is that your one of us now for dating Dawn." Hart smiled. "Me, and the other five are dating her sisters."
Haru blushed heavily at that.
"What cake is it?" Ace asked with a smile.
"Chocolate." Zarc answered.
Ace smiled at that.
Unaware to there was someone who is behind a tree. It was Mir who's hair is now in a braid, and is now wearing a black coat, and having on some blue pants. She wasn't sure what to do now since her father is dead, and that she was released when the police thinks that her father used his Parasites to make her what she was, and she had been recovered but knows what she needs to do.
With a deep breath she walked to the people celebrating. "Excuse me...?"
Turning to her almost everyone immediately froze.
"What do we owe this visit?" Yuri inquired calmly.
"Listen I... I had some things to talk about." Mir said looking down looking guilty.
"You don't have to, its ok." Stacy said with a smile.
"Who is this?" Ray asked never meeting Mir.
"Someone who did a lot of horrible things in the past." Yuto answered.
"True, but I have a feeling she came for a reason. Didn't you?" Yuya asked.
Mir only said, "I didn't realized it sometime sooner... But after learning father is dead... I soon had a feeling that I never felt. A feeling that felt comforting, and a bit relieved that a weight have lifted off my shoulders."
"I'm sorry." Ray said before gently hugging her.
Mir looked surprised at this.
"Losing your dad must have been painful, I'm sorry to hear that." Ray told her.
"Are you going to be ok?" Celina asked her.
"I... What I realized was that... All he cared in his life was his Parasites." Mir told them looking down. "He never cared about me at all, and only used me as a duelist to use his Parasites."
"What do you want to do now that you've realized that?" Celina asked her.
Mir didn't answered but got on all fours bowing her head to Tate, and Stacy. "You two I'm so sorry for everything I've done in the past."
Stacy looked shocked. "Please don't do that, I want to be your friend."
"You... What?" Mir asked looking up shocked.
Stacy had a kind smile. "Things were bad but they can be better now."
"But... Those things... Like scaring you, and poisoning him..." Mir trailed off.
"Were awful, but we aren't mad." Tate smiled.
"How..." Mir started crying. "How can people like you two exist!?"
Stacy just hugged her gently. Ace looked at the cake before smiling getting a piece as he offered it to Mir. Dawn smiled seeing that. Mir looked at him as she smiled taking the piece, "...Thanks I needed that."
Ace nodded smiling.
"Come on Mir, why don't you join the party?" Lulu offered.
"You want me to what?" Mir asked surprised.
"Join Ace's birthday party." Yuri repeated. "After everything that's happened you deserve a second chance."
Mir looked as her eyes widen backing up a little remembering her defeat against him. Yuri blinked in confusion before smiling. "Oh, sorry about that."
'I'm I going insane or is he actually smiling?' Mir thought seeing him smile.
"Well, what do you say? Do you want to come enjoy the party with us?" Lilly asked her.
Mir blinked before nodding.
"Yay." Ace smiled.
Mir then asked, "Who's this little kid?"
"My grandson." Leo Akaba answered. "Ace Akaba."
"G-Grandson?" Mir asked shocked. "You never told me that Declan had a son, Professor!"
"It's a lot more complicated." Declan admitted as Ray walked up.
"My name's Ray Akaba, he's my dad and Dawn and Ace are my kids." Ray explained. "Well, mine and Zarc's."
Mir blinked before shaking her head, "Okay you guys can explain it to me during the party... And try to get me a new deck because I gotten rid of my Scorpions."
"No!" Stacy cried.
Mir looked surprised at this.
"You love your Scorpions, even if your dad was a mean person you shouldn't throw them away." Stacy told her.
"Stacy... Even with that I can still serious harm someone like when I poisoned your boyfriend." Mir told her. "I'm not throwing them away just packing them away to where they can't harm anyone else."
Stacy looked down sadly. "Ok."
Ace, and Dawn both hugged her.
A few minutes later...
"That was a good cake." Ace smiled wiping his mouth.
"I'm glad you liked it." Lulu smiled.
"So what's your second present?" Tate inquired.
Ace looked over the gifts before pointing at one.
Zuzu smiled before giving it to him.
"I hope you like it Ace." Hart smiled.
Ace opened it.
After presents...
"Thank you all so much." Ace smiled.
"You're welcome." Terri smiled.
Ace soon looked at a Deck which was on of the gifts he has.
"What are you thinking about Ace?" Rin asked him.
"I dueled earlier, and I want to see if I can do good with this." Ace smiled.
"Ok, who do you want to challenge?" Dawn asked.
"I don't know." Ace admitted.
"That's ok." Dawn reassured him.
Ace smiled nodding hearing that.
Then a young man with light-blue eyes and has white hair that spikes backwards at the sides, with purple-blue highlights while wearing a pink v-neck shirt underneath a light grey suit jacket, with black trousers that ends above his ankles and white shoes walked in the park looking around.
"Huh, who are you?" Yuya asked curiously.
The young man turned, and answered "Ryoken. Ryoken Kogami."
"It's nice to meet you." Yuya smiled.
Ryoken nodded back his greeting.
"Um... Mr. Leo?" Ace asked.
"Yeah?" Leo asked him.
"Can... can we duel?" Ace asked. "I want to try my new cards."
"Huh?" Leo asked surprised before smiling, "Okay why not?"
"Hm?" Ryoken looked over. "New duelist?"
"Yeah, he's my little brother." Dawn smiled as Ace and Leo got into position. "He got a new deck today for his birthday."
Ryoken smiled a little before asking, "Well why not I duel him next?"
Ace blushed hearing that. "Um... ok."
Ryoken nodded as they get ready.
"Go easy on him okay Leo?" Alex smiled.
"I will." Leo smiled. "You can go first Ace."
"DUEL!"

"Ok Ace." Leo nodded with a smile.
"Ok, then I set two cards facedown and end my turn." Ace finished.
Leo 1st Turn:
"Alright Ace, for my move I'll set two cards and play a monster facedown to end my turn." Leo smiled. "Your turn again."
Ace looked unsure before seeing his set cards. "I play a trap card, Hieratic Seal of Banishment!"
Hieratic Seal of Banishment
Normal Trap Card
Tribute 1 "Hieratic" monster to target 1 card your opponent controls; banish that target.
"Huh?" Leo asked in confusion.
"I have to sacrifice Nuit and then I get to banish a monster on the field, and I banish your face-down monster." Ace smiled before pausing. "Um... do I get to summon a monster now?"
"Well if your trap targeted your monster then yeah." Yuto answered.
Ace looked at the card. "It doesn't say. That means I don't get to summon right?"
"I guess not, but you got rid of my only monster." Leo said as his card vanished.
Ace: 4000
Leo: 4000

"No attack or defense points?" Jaden asked confused.
"Says the duelist who plays Yubel." Celina pointed out. "Don't just assume its a weak monster."
"Actually... It's a Normal Monster." Ace admitted.
"A normal monster?" Yuri inquired.
"Ok Ace, what are you plotting?" Leo inquired.
"Ok, then I play Monster Reborn to bring back Nuit in attack mode." Ace continued.

"Now I pick up cards until I get a monster I can summon, then I summon it and send everything else to the graveyard."
"High risk, and high reward if it works." Zarc noted.
Ace swallowed nervously before drawing cards. "No... no... no... Yes!"
"Go Ace." Dawn cheered.
"I drew my other Hieratic Seal of the Sun Dragon Overlord." Ace smiled excitedly as he sent the other cards to his graveyard. "Ok, now I Overlay my two copies of Hieratic Seal of the Sun Dragon Overlord."
The two monsters turned into golden lights as they entered the Overlay Network.
"Great dragon lord of the sun I humbly ask you come to me in my hour of need! Illuminate the path to victory and shine your brilliance across the field!

"No it isn't, and that thing is powerful." Leo admitted nervously.
"It sounds cool." Terri smiled.
Ryoken blinked before grinning a little. "Well then... He might be an interesting opponent."
"You can't attack this turn right?" Leo asked nervously.
"No I can." Ace answered. "I attack directly."
The dragon fired a blast.
Leo went flying back.
(Leo: 1000)
"Leo!?" Ace asked worried.
"I'm ok." Leo reassured him.
Ace looked worried but nodded. "I end my turn."
Leo 2nd Turn:

"Huh?" They asked surprised as the Circuit Mark appeared.
"Link?" Alex asked shocked.

A Sattellite appeared before morphing to a robot. Ace stared at it amazed before he blushed. Leo grinned only to suddenly pause. "Wait, I forgot."
"Forgot what?" Alex asked him.
"Link Monsters can't be in defense mode, and Xyz Monsters don't have levels." Leo answered. "Which means I lose."
Ace nodded hearing that. "GG."
Leo nodded before surrendering.
Ace: 4000
Leo: 1000 (Surrendered)
Ace wins the duel!
Ryoken grinned a little, "Quite a little miscalculation."
"Oh well, I made a mistake but Ace made a great mechanic." Leo smiled.
Ryoken then walked forward, "Well now it's my turn."
"Huh?" Ace asked nervously.
"I happen to find your skills interesting, and did really well in your first duel with that Deck. If you don't want to I understand." Ryoken told him.
"Um... I'm not really that good." Ace admitted. "I just got my new cards for my birthday."
"If you want a duel I'm willing to have a match." Sora offered.
Ryoken grinned before asking, "Link Rules alright?"
Sora frowned slightly. "I guess, but I don't have my own Link Monster yet."
"Even then I can tell you can put up a fight." Ryoken told him getting his Duel Disk set.
Sora activated his own Duel Disc.
"Declan has there been anything that can tell us about this 'Ryoken Kogami'?" Yuya asked him.
"No, I've never heard of him before now but I'm keeping my eyes open." Declan answered.
"DUEL!"

"Yes, and having good defense." Ryoken answered. "I activate Gateway Dragon's special ability! Once a turn I can summon a Dark Dragon that's level 4 or below from my hand."
"Ok." Sora nodded.
"Appear Sniffer Dragon!" Ryoken called as Gateway Dragon flew behind the gate as it opened revealing a red scaled small dragon with some cybernetic enhancements on him with 800 attack points.

"Not bad, but Sora's going to win." Lilly smiled confidently.
"Well Sniffer Dragon's ability activates! When it's summoned I can add another copy of Sniffer Dragon from my Deck to my hand." Ryoken said showing the card before saying, "Next I activate the spell, Quick Launch."
Quick Launch
Quick-Play Spell Card
Special Summon 1 "Rokket" monster from your Deck, but it cannot attack, also destroy it during the End Phase.
"I'm guessing that lets you summon the Sniffer Dragon you added to your hand?" Sora guessed.
"No. It allows me to summon a Rokket from my Deck but it can't attack, and is destroyed during the end of this turn." Ryoken answered. "I summon Magnarokket Dragon!"
At that a blue small dragon looking like a bullet appeared in place with 1800 attack points.

You can only use each effect of "Magnarokket Dragon" once per turn.
"If the monster is destroyed that means you're planning on using it as material for a summon." Sora noted before his eyes widened.
"Him too?" Ace asked before blushing shyly.
Ryoken smirked, "You catch on quickly. Appear, the future circuit that lights up my path!"
The circuit appeared in place.
"You use Ace's mechanic too?" Sora asked with a grin.
"Indeed. In fact my Deck resolves, and focuses over this method." Ryoken smirked.
Ace blushed even more hiding his face in his hands.
"Anyway. Arrowheads confirmed! The Summoning Conditions are at least 2 Dragon monsters! I set Gateway Dragon, Sniffer Dragon, and Magnarokket Dragon in the Link Markers!" Ryoken called as the three flew up entering the up-left, up-right, and up markers. "Circuit combined! Link Summon! Link 3, Flash Charge Dragon!"
A black long bodied dragon with wheels on his feet along with turrents for wings appeared roaring with 2300 attack points.

When a card or effect is activated that targets this card (Quick Effect): You can Tribute 1 monster; negate the activation.
"Whoa." Sora admitted. "That's impressive."
"I place 2 cards face-down, and that ends my turn." Ryoken ended.
Sora 1st Turn:
"Ok, I'll start things off by summoning Fluffal Mouse and thanks to his ability I can bring out two more Fluffal Mice from my deck." Sora started with a grin.
The three appeared.

Ryoken called, "Flash Charge Dragon's ability activates!"
"Huh?" Sora asked in confusion.
"Since you Normal or Special Summoned a monster at one of it's Link Arrows that monster is destroyed, and you take 500 points of damage!" Ryoken explained as his dragon roared firing at the mouse.
Sora flinched as one of his three mice shattered.
(Sora: 3500)
"Well in that case I'll have to change my plan a little." Sora admitted. "I use Polymerization to fuse my two remaining Fluffal Mice with Edge Imp Sabres in my hand."
Polymerization
Normal Spell Card
Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion Material.
The three monsters entered the Fusion Vortex.

His fusion appeared yowling.

All "Frightfur" monsters you control gain 300 ATK for each "Fluffal" monster and "Frightfur" monster you control. You can only control 1 "Frightfur Tiger".
"Since it's a Fusion Monster it goes to one of the Extra Monster Zones." Ryoken told him.
"I know, but now since I Fusion Summoned him, Frightfur Tiger's ability destroys both of your set cards." Sora grinned.
The two shattered.
Ryoken grinned, "I activate the Continuous Trap, Mirror Force Launcher!"
"Mirror Force Launcher?" Sora asked in horror.
"When this set card is destroyed I can set both it, and Mirror Force from my Deck, Hand, or Graveyard. And they can be activated this turn." Ryoken grinned placing the two cards down.
Sora grinned. "Not bad, but surprise I play Giant Trunade!"
Giant Trunade
Normal Spell Card
Return all Spell and Trap Cards on the field to the hand.
Lilly smiled seeing that. Ryoken looked surprised before his two Mirror Traps returned to his hand.
"My girlfriend suggested I add that one, now with that done I'll play another Polymerization and use it to fuse Fluffal Leo with Frightfur Tiger." Sora grinned as they entered the Fusion Vortex. "Show yourself! Wild ghost-cave beast that bares fangs at all! Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!"
A new powerful tiger appeared roaring.

All "Frightfur" monsters you control gain 400 ATK for each "Fluffal" and "Frightfur" monster you control. A Fusion Monster that used this card as a Fusion Material cannot be destroyed by card effects.
"When Frightfur Sabre-Tooth is summoned I can revive a Frightfur monster in my graveyard, so Frightfur Tiger comes back." Sora grinned. "Next up for each Frightfur on my field Tiger gives my Frightfur monsters 300 points and Frightfur Sabre-Tooth gives them 400 points for each one."
Frightfur Tiger: (ATK: 1900 + (300 * 2) + (400 * 2) = 3300)
Frightfur Sabre-Tooth: (ATK: 2400 + (300 * 2) + (400 * 2) = 3800)
Ryoken looked surprised at this.
"Frightfur Tiger attack Flash Charge Dragon!" Sora called.
The tiger charged as it destroyed the Link Dragon as Ryoken grunted. (Ryoken: 3000)
"Frightfur Sabre-Tooth end this duel!" Sora declared.
The monster charged.
Ryoken called, "Come forth! Chobham Armor Dragon!"
At that a paladin like dragon looking like a mechanical dog appeared with 0 attack points.

If this card is used as material for a Link Summon: Each player adds 1 monster from their GY to their hand.
"Huh?" Sora asked in confusion.
"When you attack me directly I can summon this card from my hand in attack mode." Ryoken explained.
"It has zero attack points though." Sora pointed out.
The tiger charged.
Ryoken called, "Chobham Armor Dragon's ability activates! As it was summoned by the effect it isn't destroyed by battle this turn, and I only take half the damage!"
The tiger struck the dragon.
(Ryoken: 1100)
"I end my turn." Sora frowned.
"Whoa Ryoken is impressive lasting that round." Yugo remarked.
"Yeah, he should have lost though." Lilly pouted.
Sora: 3500
Ryoken: 1100

"Not bad, but he's still a lot weaker than my monsters." Sora grinned.
"Well now I set two cards down, and end my turn." Ryoken ended.
Sora 2nd Turn:
'Those have to be his Mirror Force cards.' Sora thought. "Ok, I'll play Pot of Greed to draw two cards."
He drew twice.

"This lets me target two Fusion Monsters on the field and destroy any non-Fusion monster with less attack points than their combined attack points. Then the destroyed monsters deal damage equal to their attack points. I'll target Frightfur Tiger and Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!"
Ryoken widen his eyes as his dragons shattered.
Sora: 3500
Ryoken: 0000
Sora wins the duel!
"You're good, I got..." Sora started only to be tackled.
"You won Sora!" Lilly cheered excitedly.
Ryoken looked at the cards he would draw, and smirked, "He's lucky. I would've summoned a Link 4 monster with these cards."
"Link 4?" Zarc asked. "Then do you mind if we have a match?"
Ryoken turned to him.
"Daddy?" Dawn asked surprised.
"Well Ace did give me a Link 4 card and after seeing two amazing matches I can't help but want to duel myself." Zarc chuckled. "Plus that duel was two on one, Lilly's the one who told Sora to add Giant Trunade to his deck."
Ryoken smirked a bit, "I don't mind. Plus I heard your quite a duelist in this neighborhood."
"We'll have to see." Zarc smiled. "Best of luck Ryoken."
"You two." Ryoken grinned.
bopdog111: Can anyone guess who this Ryoken is?
Ulrich362: I have a feeling they might be able to, then again I can't say I saw Mir coming back.
bopdog111: As a reformed person.
Ulrich362: True, we'll have to see how that changes things.
bopdog111: Well next up is Zarc vs Ryoken.
Ulrich362: That's certainly going to be a duel to look forward to. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
