Jun's Arena

"Pain Laser Dragon attacks!"

In a small enclosed space with only a wired fence around them, Miwa and Jun had been busy with a cardfight of their own shortly after their conversation on a certain topic. The King of Underground Fights simply kept his eyes closed as Miwa had launched the final attack on his Vanguard, Galactic Beast, Zeal. Reaching out for the top card of his deck, he flipped it over to reveal Shock Monster, Vipple before placing the card straight into his damage zone. This had brought the total damage that he had to six cards, meaning that he had just lost the cardfight he was involved with at this very moment.

"As strong as always," he mused as he opened his eyes "I can see your will hasn't wavered, even with Kai's absence."

"I suppose," Miwa murmured as he scratched the back of his head before his expression went back to one of curiousity "Still though, I'm still curious as to what you meant when this 'Kiyoi' said she would bring judgment in the name of her superior."

"I wish I knew what she was talking about after our fight," Jun replied "There was something off about her, like she was holding back something for some reason with this 'Remember' unit. She said her words to us yesterday were a warning, for what was to come for all cardfighters across the world. Then, she just vanished."

"Warning?" he asked.

"I still don't understand what she could be getting at," the King of Underground Fights continued "But, I will advise you to be careful. If what Kiyoi said is true, then we are all targets for her 'superior'."

Miwa nodded grimly in agreement to Jun's statement before gathering up his cards and turning around to leave the arena. The blond cardfighter felt somewhat more anxious than before, especially with this new information being brought to light at this very moment. Feeling it was important to his friends though, he felt that it was best to hurry over to Card Capital and inform them immediately of this news.


City Park

Back in the park, a quiet breeze blew over the small 'amphitheater' area as Kamui assessed the current situation of the fight, now that Kiyoi's turn had come to an end. He was sitting at four damage, with the fourth damage being a Draw Trigger, Raizer Crew, that he had checked from Tidal Assault's first attack before later using the Battleraizer in his hand to block the second attack from the Aqua Force unit that was directed at Ultimate Raizer, Dual-flare. He grimaced for a moment, knowing that wasting a 10000 shield on his rear-guard would be considered foolish, especially since he only needed 5000 to guard it. But in this case, he knew that it was necessary if he was going to have a chance of winning this fight.

Then there was Kiyoi herself, who had only served to create more questions than answers. On the surface, he had discovered that the 'units' she had wielded were not from the same world that he lived in or Cray for that manner, otherwise he would have presumably seen some of her strange 'Code ART' SIGNI as she had called them in the hands of other cardfighters by now. In addition, there was also the fact that she had knowledge of Kai's whereabouts in that 'other' world along with confirmation that Aichi had successfully made it there to find him, only that they were now caught up in these 'Selector Battles' as she had called them. In addition, he couldn't help but ponder over both the vision he had of his supposed future that would lead to his 'misfortune' as well as the strange force that briefly controlled his arm when Kiyoi had used the skill of Code ART SMP to discard Twin Blader from his hand.

He wasn't sure about all of what he had just heard and witnessed so far, but he knew that unless he could defeat her, he might not get all of the answers that he was looking for. Standing up all of his units aside from the frozen Energyraizer, he drew his single card before taking ahold of the one card he knew could help him out at this very moment.

(Cardfight! Vanguard OST: Kamui no Theme)

"A flash of light that pierces the darkness of space!" he called before placing down the chosen card on top of Wingraizer. "The great Kamui rides Ultimate Raizer Mega-flare!"

Back on the imaged battlefield, Wingraizer vanished from the area in a bright flash of light as a much larger Raizer unit appeared in its place. Mega-flare sported mostly red armour with several pieces of gold plating, including a long spike of the same colour protuding from the head as well as fins on the wings and green armouring in several places as well as glass of the same colour covering over the cockpit area of the giant unit. It towered in height over both Kiyoi's rear-guards and Remember herself, the mysterious girl seeming somewhat unfazed with her somewhat innocent smile having not left her lips.

Ultimate Raizer, Mega-flare/Grade 3/Twin Drive!/POW: 11000/SLD: 0/Nova Grappler/Star Gate/Battleroid

Kamui then held out his hand wide over Mega-flare's card, preparing to conduct an action that he was sure would guarantee an advantage in the coming attacks for this turn.

"Seek mate!" he declared.

"Legion, huh?" Kiyoi murmured as she watched the Nova Grappler user shuffle all four of the cards in his drop zone back into his deck before taking out a single card and holding it up high above.

"Dark crimson magma lying deep underground and blue sky surrounding this planet in the heavens! Now awaken and line up to protect the home planet! The great Kamui's Legion!"

Kamui placed the card that was another copy of Ultimate Raizer, Dual-flare onto the Vanguard circle to the left of Mega-flare's card, completing the Legion. Dual-flare itself appeared alongside Mega-flare on the imaged battlefield as a golden aura surrounded the two Raizer units before they pointed their cannons straight at Remember who didn't even flinch in the presence of the two Nova Grapplers now fighting together as one. As the Nova Grappler user was about to prepare to continue his turn after calling Tankraizer and Phoenixraizer, Drill-wing to his rear-guard, Kiyoi seemingly remained unfazed in the face of what was staring her down at this very moment.

"You say that my future's been set in stone," Kamui spoke "But I'm gonna decide my own future and overcome that 'misfortune' you keep talking about!"

"Then by all means... go ahead," Kiyoi replied calmly.

"Let's go then!" he called as he rested Dual-flare's card "Dual-flare attacks Tidal Assault!"

Kiyoi simply moved the attacked Aqua Force unit from the front left rear-guard circle on her field to the drop zone, indicating that it had been successfully hit by the rear-guard Dual-flare.

"Next, Drill-wing attacks Remember!"

On the imaged battlefield, Phoenixraizer, Drill-wing revved up the drills as they whirled to great speeds with green energy crackling out of them as the large black and orange armoured Raizer unit charged towards Remember. She cried for a brief moment as she was thrown backwards into the air before landing back on the ground. An afterimage of the card Remember Dawn, Reading Star Miko briefly appeared, indicating that Kiyoi did not recieve a trigger as a result of the attack that had befallen her. Back to reality, Kamui immediately rested both Mega-flare and Dual-flare's cards on the Vanguard circle.

"Let's go!" he called "Mega-flare and Dual-flare, unite your power and force our way through! Legion attack!"

As their eyes flashed briefly, Mega-flare and Dual-flare began charging up power in the large barrels of the weapons that the two Raizers carried in both their respective left and right arm before pointing it right at Remember who had gotten up after taking such a hit from Drill-wing's previous attack. The rear-guard Dual-flare on Kamui's field then suddenly whirred back to life as its eyes briefly flashed before taking aim at the mysterious girl as well.

"Legion Skill!" the cardfighter's voice sounded out "Mega-flare gains an extra critical! In addition, my rear-guard Dual-flare stands with an extra 5000 power!"

Ultimate Raizer, Mega-flare/Critical: 1 - 2

Ultimate Raizer, Dual-flare (RG)/POW: 9000 - 14000

"I see..." Kiyoi murmured "So your effort to guard my attacks against Dual-flare was for this. But..."

She then placed down a card onto the guardian circle which was the Aqua Force unit known as Blue Storm Guardian Dragon, Icefall Dragon before turning over the only unflipped card in her damage zone face down.

"Quintet Wall!" she called as she swept her hand over the top of her deck, causing the top five cards to fly to her left and flip face up before landing on the guardian circle both in front of and alongside the Aqua Force sentinel unit. The five units that were revealed were Code Art SMP, Light Signals Penguin Soldier, Code Art RFR, Remember Morni, Tidal Assault. On the imaged battlefield, the six units appeared in front of the Vanguard Remember to shield her from harm as a barrier created by Icefall Dragon was more than powerful enough to fully deflect the attack. Kamui could only groan upon realizing that the 20000 shield that had been summoned from Icefall was enough to ensure that even a double trigger wouldn't make his Legion's power enough break through.

"Damn it... Twin drive!" he called as he reached out for his deck. His first check revealed another copy of Mega-flare whilst the second card revealed something that had slightly lifted his spirits, Raizer Girl, Katie. "Yes, Heal Trigger! I recover 1 damage and give the power to my rear-guard Dual-flare!"

After moving Raizer Crew from his damage zone to his drop zone, Kiyoi calmly moved each of the cards she had called from the deck through Icefall Dragon to her drop zone, one card at a time in a calm manner before eventually moving the Aqua Force sentinel there herself. Kamui then immediately turned both Tankraizer and his rear-guard Dual-flare's cards to their rest state for his last attack of the turn.

"Dual-flare attacks!" he called.

Kiyoi simply moved the top card of her deck, Code Art KEY to her damage zone, showing that his efforts to deal her fourth damage had set off another Draw Trigger. She placed the card in her damage zone before drawing her single card to add to the two that she still held.

I only got her to four damage, but at least I got Tidal Assault out of the way Kamui murmured within his thoughts As long as I can keep up these attacks and not worry about her freezing my units, I should be fine.

"Turn end," he spoke as the ice around Energyraizer's card eventually 'thawed' in an instant.

As Kiyoi stood all of her units back up and drew her single card, she gazed over towards Kamui whose expression was one that was still filled with determination and from what she had told him thus far, she could easily tell as to why this was. He demanded answers about Aichi and Kai at this very moment with whatever knowledge she had of their current situation and she wasn't willing to give all of those answers away with simple ease, the mere thought on this subject seeming somewhat amusing in the very back of her mind at this very moment.

"I see why my superior found you amongst some of this world intriguing," she spoke "After all, it's not often that one with such raw energy and passion is involved with such events."

"Events?" Kamui pondered.

"You should already know," she continued "The battle for Cray in the Asia Circuit, Link Joker's invasion of this world and... your efforts against the Quatre Knights."

"W... Wait a minute!" he called "How do you know about all of that?!"

"'She' has her ways, but right now, that is of no concern to me," Kiyoi concluded "Right now, the time has finally arrived... for you misfortune."

Kamui gritted his teeth as she picked out the one card in her hand that she had been saving since the last turn before closing her eyes to speak out aloud at this very moment.

"Cold premonition, bring forth the dark meaning of reality and set it in stone for those that oppose you!" she called before placing down that card onto the Vanguard circle "Ride!"

(Selector Spread Wixoss OST: Battle ~ Consternation)

Back on the imaged battlefield, a bright white glow enveloped Remember, obscuring her from the sight of Mega-flare and Dual-flare as well as the remaining rear-guards on Kamui's field for several moments before dying down to reveal the girl in her new appearance. She now wielded her crystal ball on the end of a long staff, resembling a sceptre of some kind and her headdress along with the back folds of her skirt had gotten longer in length as she gleefully gazed upon the two Vanguards that now stood tall in front of her as Kiyoi's voice sounded out the name of this form.

"Remember Night... Star-Reading Miko!"

Remember Night, Star-Reading Miko/Grade 4/Twin Drive!/POW: 13000/SLD: 0/'?'/Magallanica/(Human/LRIG)

"This is... Grade 4..." Kamui murmured as he looked up at Kiyoi who then gazed right towards him.

"Remember's skill. I Freeze Drill-wing!"

As she spoke those words out, her eyes suddenly flashed a bright blue for a brief moment as Kamui stared on back at her before suddenly gasping for a brief moment. For some reason, as if he was seeing things or not, he gasped as he could suddenly see what appeared to be Remember, in her Grade 0 form standing in the place of Kiyoi, continuing the fight as if nothing had seemingly happened out of the ordinary. He looked back at the table just in time to see ice from the Freeze effect cover over Phoenixraizer, Drill-wing, preventing him from standing it at the start of his next turn or moving it to the back row during said next turn, before looking back at what he assumed was Remember, now seeing Kiyoi in her place, placing down the blue SIGNI Code Art WTC on the rear-guard circle that was previously occupied by Tidal Assault.

"What the... heck...?" he murmured.

"WTC's counterblast," she spoke as her eyes flashed blue again and just like before, Kamui could have sworn that he was now seeing Remember in her place again. "Again, I Freeze Energyraizer!"

As Energyraizer's card was frozen for the third time running throughout this entire fight, the Nova Grappler was almost too surprised by what he was seemingly seeing before him to even notice what had happened to his starting Vanguard at this very moment.

What's going on?! Why am I seeing that unit instead of Kiyoi?!

As his vision of Remember vanished to reveal Kiyoi once again as she placed down Code Art SC and Light Signals Penguin Soldier onto the remaining open rear-guard circles that she had on her side of the field. Two cards slipped out from underneath Remember Night and moved to the drop zone as she drew yet another card.

"Code Art SMP attacks Dual-flare," she spoke as she rested both it and Light Signals Penguin Soldier.

"G... Guard!" Kamui called as he placed down Raizer Girl, Katie on the guardian circle, the shield being just enough to completely block the attack.

"Remember attacks Mega-flare," Kiyoi continued.

The Nova Grappler user looked at his hand before looking back to his damage zone, seeing that he was still at three damage for the moment. Given the current circumstances that he was currently in, especially as Remember was currently attacking for 21000, he knew there was only one option that he could do at this moment.

"No guard!" he called.

Kiyoi's calm smile remained still as it was for the moment before she suddenly increased it slightly, somewhat nerving the Nova Grappler user to a degree.

"Twin Drive..." she spoke as she revealed the first card which was Ice Floe Angel. "Heal Trigger. Power to WTC." One of the four face down cards moved over from her damage zone to her drop zone before she reached out for the second card, this time revealing Jet-ski Rider.

"Double Trigger?!" Kamui exclaimed.

"I give Remember an extra Critical."

On the imaged field, Remember spun her sceptre around as the crystal ball mounted on the top began to gain a bright blue glow to it before pointing it upwards as a blue beam shot right out of it and struck the ceiling of the battlefield, causing bits of the roof to suddenly crash down upon the Legion Mate Dual-flare, knocking it to the ground. Remember then smirked and point her staff towards Mega-flare, shooting another beam, this time of a white colour at the larger of the two Raizer units, causing an explosion that damaged its knees, causing it to fall forwards. The next two cards from Kamui's damage check revealed Shieldraizer and Minimum Raizer, showing that he had hit a damage trigger at this very moment.

"Critical Trigger!" he called as he looked over what he had present on the field and taking into account from the power increases of Kiyoi's double trigger "I give all the effects to Mega-flare!"

"WTC attacks Mega-flare," she spoke.

"Perfect Guard!" he called as he placed down Twin Blader on the guardian circle before discarding the other Mega-flare that he had held in his hand. Kiyoi simply shrugged in response as she ended her turn right there.

(Selector Infected Wixoss OST: Battle ~ Negative Chain)

Kamui panted as he stood up the units that were not encased in ice per the Freeze effect before reaching out from his deck to draw the single card to begin his turn. When he did and looked at what it was, he could only groan as he looked back over his field.

"It seems your misfortune has finally arrived," Kiyoi spoke "How unfortunate."

"Not yet!" he called as he placed down another card on top of Energyraizer "I retire my frozen Energyraizer and call Reserveraizer!"

After the ice around Energyraizer's card shattered, Kamui moved the Grade 0 unit over to his drop zone, now having a unit available to boost his Legion attack on Remember for this turn. Kiyoi seemed hardly unfazed by this at all, even after she had intended to cut off the boost to his Legion attack again on the previous turn thanks to WTC.

"Go, Mega-flare!" he called as he rested both his Legion and the Reserveraizer that he had now called behind it.

"Perfect Guard," she spoke as she placed down Emerald Shield, Paschal on the guardian circle before discarding Jet-ski Rider from her hand.

"Not yet!" Kamui replied as he conducted his Twin Drive, the first card revealed being Battleraizer. "Stand Trigger! I stand Drill-wing and give the power to Dual-flare!" The ice around Drill-wing's card immediately shattered as Kamui immediately stood the once frozen unit back up in preparation for the next attack that he would conduct with it. Then, he performed the second check by revealing the next card which was another Cannonraizer, much to his slight annoyance.

On the imaged battlefield, Paschal deployed a barrier in front of Remember to block the Legion attack from both Mega-flare and the Legion Mate Dual-flare by deflecting the blasts from their respective weapons off in different directions around the girl whose once innocent smile had gotten slightly darker since the end of the previous turn. She gazed upon the two units once more before yawning for a brief moment, as if she was somewhat bored from the seemingly one-sided battle that this cardfight had turned into.

"Take this!" Kamui's voice yelled out loud as both Dual-flare and Drill-wing immediately charged down at her with their respective attacks, the girl easily bearing through the pain without even as much flinching throughout the whole ordeal. After standing back on her feet with ease, the two rear-guards that had just attacked her had immediately retreated back to the Nova Grappler user's field, standing alongside the Legion Pair. Back to reality, Kamui's annoyed expression hadn't changed as he saw that the best he was able to do was knock Kiyoi up to five damage with her two damage checks having revealed both another Emerald Shield, Paschal and Code Art SC.

"Turn... end..." he muttered.

"Are you prepared?" Kiyoi asked in a somewhat calm and yet unnerving tone which caused him to groan under his breath for a brief moment.

"Final Turn!"

She then drew her single card before opening up her eyes towards Kamui, the same strange blue aura from earlier in her previous turn when she was freezing his rear-guards appeared once more as to the Nova Grappler himself, he could once again see Remember right in front of him, only this time as some sort of afterimage that was covering over Kiyoi herself as he could still see all of the features of the strange girl as normal this time around.

"Image it," she spoke "The final blow, that will deal you your misfortune."

Kamui suddenly gasped as all vision of Kiyoi, the table in front of him and the cards he held seemed to just vanish as in its place, his foresight was suddenly that of the battlefield that he and the girl had imaged throughout the whole fight in their minds. Attempting to look down, he could see that he was looking around from the exact perspective of Ultimate Raizer, Mega-flare as evidenced by the red armoured arms that were in front. A familiar noise suddenly sounded as he looked forward to see Remember pointing her sceptre in his direction.

"T... This is...!" he gasped.

"That's right," Kiyoi's voice sounded out as the crystal ball on Remember's staff began to glow a blinding white "This is the exact future I showed you two turns ago, the one that will dictate your fate. You lose, Katsuragi Kamui."

At this moment, everything went completely white for Kamui as he lost all sight around him before he suddenly screamed as he felt the strength in his legs, or rather Mega-flare's legs give out as the unit fell down to the ground flat on its front whilst at the same time in reality around him, he regained his foresight as he fell forwards onto the table in front of him, dropping the remaining cards that he held before looking to his damage zone to see that his sixth damage was Wingraizer. He closed his eyes in frustration, now knowing that the future that Kiyoi had shown him earlier had come true as a result of their cardfight and his loss.

"And now..."

He got up immediately just in time to see the girl pull out what appeared to be a card from the Wixoss card game that had not changed from entering this world, much to his sudden confusion as he had no knowledge about the card game that the Selector Battles had revolved around in the first place. She turned the card around to reveal that it was completely blank, no image or stats being printed on the card.

"What the...?" he breathed before a glow emitted from all of his cards as he suddenly gasped upon looking at them. They appeared to be losing all of their colour as the images on the cards began to fade out to black and white at first before leaving behind nothing but an empty blank image on them. Looking back at Kiyoi, he could now see that the single blank card had transformed into an entire deck suited for the Wixoss card game, the front card being his Ultimate Raizer, Mega-flare as an LRIG card, still retaining the Legion symbol much like Alfred Exiv and Big Bang Knuckle Dragon when their cards were readapted to suit the Selector Battles.

"M… My deck!" he yelled "What did you do to my Raizer deck?!"

As he attempt to run up and grab the newly formed deck from Kiyoi, she simply stepped to the side to avoid being tackled by the cardfighter, but not before she tripped him over, causing him to fall face first onto the ground.

"Katsuragi Kamui, I will be taking the Raizers back to 'her' domain," she spoke "You are only the first of many that my 'superior' has taken an interest in stripping of their Vanguards for her ideal."

"What's that supposed to mean?!" he demanded as he turned around to face her.

"That is something that this world and the one I come from will find out in due time," she continued "And as a precaution..."

Kiyoi then pointed her fingers at Kamui as a strange blue aura surrounded his right hand before a snowflake like marking materialized over the top of his right hand, causing him to cry out in pain as if it was being carved into his very flesh and blood at this very moment.

"In case you were thinking of trying to oppose us with spare Raizers, it will do you no good," she explained as he gazed upon the marking that was engraved on his right hand "Any cards you have lost to me along with any that belong to the same series as them, will instantly turn blank the moment you touch them."

"Even so... my Raizers aren't my only Nova Grapplers!" Kamui replied "Kiyoi, I will defeat you and get back my stolen units! And I'll somehow make it to that other world to find Aichi onii-san!"

"You really are that eager to meet him," Kiyoi murmured as she slipped the newly formed deck into one of her pockets before bringing out yet another Wixoss card from her pocket, much to his confusion. This time, the card wasn't blank, but was an LRIG card that housed no alive LRIG, much like the one that Ulith used to travel between both her world and the White Room.

"In that case... why don't I just give you your one way trip there?"

Kamui blinked for a moment before Kiyoi suddenly revealed the front of the card to him and her eyes gained a bright blue aura to them once again.

"Open!" she called.

Then before the Nova Grappler user could utter a reply, he gasped as everything around him went completely white, forcing him to shield his eyes from the sudden brightness as both he and Kiyoi began to vanish from the park, with no one around to witness what had happened just mere moments ago and what was happening now. Well, almost nobody that was. Just as the two began to fade from sight, Miwa entered the park just in time to see both Kamui and Kiyoi for only a few seconds as he was being teleported away from the cardfighting stage.

"Kamui!" he called as he ran towards the Nova Grappler user, just as he vanished along with Kiyoi as well as the bright white glow that had enveloped them there.

(End Music)

Miwa could only stare at the ground in front of him, unable to believe about what he had just witnessed before him. Kamui along with a girl that he did not recognize had seemingly vanished into thin air just as he entered the park. Seeing that the two were standing beside the cardfighting table on the stage, he looked over to see that Kamui's now blank cards had still remained as they were when Kiyoi had conducted her 'misfortune' upon him the moment that he lost their cardfight between them.

"What happened here...?" he murmured as he looked over the blank cards before checking the remaining cards in the Nova Grappler user's 'former' Raizer deck to see that they were also blank.

A sudden breeze caused him to look in front just in time to see something land on the Vanguard circle in front of him. Looking closely, Miwa could see a single card that he had not noticed earlier had flown onto the other half in front of him, presumably as a result of the sudden gale that had been stirred up from Kiyoi's 'vanishing act'. Picking it up, he could see that it was a Grade 0 unit that had depicted Remember, only the card was different from the one that she had started the fight with, evidenced by the name being shortened to just Remember and having 6000 power by itself.

"This unit..." he murmured, looking closely at the name, now recognizing that the kanji spelled out 'Remember' "Don't tell me, that was Kiyoi right now?!"

Gathering up Kamui's blank cards to hold on for safekeeping until he somehow found the Nova Grappler user and holding onto the new unit that represented Remember, Miwa hurried on towards Card Capital, realizing that whatever Jun had told him about was now serious and that one of his friends along with several units that he wielded had now vanished from this world completely, unaware of Kamui's destination and when he would arrive.


And there we go! Kamui fights valiantly to try and get some more answers from Kiyoi, especially after somehow seeing Remember herself in the place of the girl for a few brief moments, but the cardfighter falls just short as the mysterious girl obtains victory. His 'misfortune' results in his Raizer deck being copied over to her possession as the original cards he holds fade into a blank void, rendering them useless to him. As Kamui vows to get back at Kiyoi and make it to the other world to find Aichi and Kai, the mysterious girl then grants him half of his desire by warping him to there just as Miwa arrives to witness the turn of events! Where in the world of Wixoss will Kamui end up landing? Find out next time on Stand Up, the LRIG! as we return to that other world. Please share your thoughts and criticisms for this chapter and I'll see you all next time.
