"Where am I?" I said as I rubbed my head and looked around.
It was a bedroom, and it seemed to be inside of a small cottage.
"Kit, hurry up, today's your big day!" I heard Lisa and Lise say synchronized as they entered the room, holding something behind their back.
"Lisa, Lise, what's so important?" I asked confused.
They looked at each other.
"You don't remember?" Lisa asked.
"Remember what?"
"Today you're getting ma-" Lise started before her twin put her and on her mouth.
"Going to get what?" I asked.
"MARRIED TO CYRUS, DUH!" Lise screamed.
I was about to scream back, but then, the room fell silent, and Lisa, along with Lise, vanished.
"So," The dark voice said again as I looked around, trying to find it.
"What do you think about my illusions, Kitsune?" It asked.
"Come out already," I said. "Show yourself!"
Silence.
"Fine, I'll reveal myself," It said after a few minutes. "That is, when the time is right."
I'd had just enough of these childish games that she was playing.
"Take me back, now!" I demanded.
"I will, but first I think you should know that your brother is trying to get you to marry Cyrus." She said.
"What?! Is it so our tribes can be close friends?" I asked.
"Yes, and he's desperately searching everywhere." She said.
/But I don't like Cyrus, he's just too...loud./ I thought. /I'd rather be friends with Yuya, rather than marrying Cyrus./
"So, you choose Yuya then?" The mysterious lady asked.
I didn't know what to say.
"Here," She said as a crystal ball floated towards me. "Look inside."
I looked inside the ball, and I saw something inside. It looked like me as a wolf.
/Stay away from me, you monster!/ Yuya asked as he moved his green bangs from his face, looking at me with his crimson eyes full of fear.
Suddenly the ball faded black.
"What happened?" I asked.
"I can't show you any more," She said as the ball vanished. "You have to go back to the real world now, and I know we will meet again soon. Goodbye, Kitsune." The lady said as I felt myself fall into water.
"Nice Darts!" I heard Sawatari say from under the water.
/So, he still has life points? I thought Yuya would take him down faster than this./ I thought as I began to swim up, but right ahead of me, I saw a figure that also was swimming up, it was Yuya.
"We're not done yet, Yuya-kun!" I heard Sawatari say.
"Ultimate Darts Shooter, Direct attack!" Sawatari said. "With this, your life points will go all the way down to 600!"
Suddenly I was hurled out of the water, and I landed on the cobblestone ground, and then, I heard the sound of rattling chains, I looked up and saw that the tower was swaying.
"It's all over!" I heard a little boy scream from the top.
"No, not yet!" Yuzu said. "We can't give up when Yuya hasn't!"
"Turn end," Sawatari said. "You still have some life left, I wonder if it's enough to keep on fighting, is it Yuya-kun?"
/Pendulum Summoning isn't the only power I have,/ I heard Yuya think to himself. /But, how could I mean guy like him use it?/
/Yuya./ I thought to myself.
/Dad, What should I do?/ I heard Yuya think.
After a few moments of silence, I heard him start to laugh.
/I have to help everyone!/ Yuya thought.
"My turn, I draw!" Yuya said as he drew a card. "I summon, Block Spider!"
Suddenly, a spider that looked like it was made out of lego bricks appeared on the field.
"0 Attack?! You have to be kidding me!" Sawatari laughed.
"Well, thanks to that card you threw away, I got another chance." Yuya said.
"That used to be my card? Are you sure? It's so weak that I don't even remember having it!" Sawatari thought.
/Well, Mr. Shingo,/ I thought as I smirked. /Don't underestimate 'weak' monsters, like ever./
"As long as Block Spider's on the field, you can't attack any other monsters!" Yuya said as Block Spider spit out a spider web in front of him.
"But he the only monster on your field, what are you up to Sakaki?" Sawatari said.
"I change Block Spider into defense mode!" Yuya said as Block Spider changed into defense mode. "And I activate the magic card, Mimiclay, and it's a special kind of clay that can be made into anything! And I'll turn it into a monster and it will also take it's effects!" Yuya explained as a mint-green blob of clay appeared on the field.
"You're planning on copying one of my monsters, aren't you?" Sawatari asked.
"No, I'll turn it into another Block Spider!" Yuya said as the blob turned into another Block Spider.
"Nani?!" Sawatari said, his face full of shock.
"When Mimiclay's effect is activated, it's special summoned as a monster!" Yuya said as Mimicay went into defense mode.
"I was wondering what you were doing, but you just doubled your garbage cards!" Sawatari said.
"Allow me to explain," Yuya began. "When I have two Block Spiders, their webs protect each other, and now your monsters can't attack!"
"No way, I didn't plan for that!" Sawatari wined.
"I set 2 cards facedown, turn end!" Yuya said.
As the duel went on, mimiclay was destroyed by sassy Sawatari, Block Spider's defense went up to 2400, and Sawatari's Ultimate Darts Shooter's attack points got bumped up to 3000, and then he attacked Yuya directly!
"IT'S ALL OVER!" Sawatari said as missiles came flying towards Yuya.
"YUYA!" I thought as I ran towards him, but I didn't make it.
The missles hit, shaking the ground violently.
"I was waiting for this, trap activate, Empty Fishing!" Yuya said. "When I take battle damage, I can half it, and I can target two cards on the field with negated effects, and add them to my hand!"
"Cards with negated effects? No way?!" Sawatari said.
"That's right, come on back, Magicians of Astromancy and Chronomancy!" Yuya said as both monsters appered on the field. Then, I heard screaming coming from above us, I looked up and saw Yuzu and the little kids falling!
"Astromancy, Chronomancy help them!" Yuya said as both the monsters flew up and caught them.
"Thanks guys." Yuya said as they flew them down to where we were, then they vanished and turned back into cards.
"You planned al this to happen?!" Sawatari said.
"No, I just believed!" Yuya said as my heart started beating, now I knew why I liked him so much.
"Just believed?!" Sawatari said. "I'll activate my Ulitmate Darts Shooter's effect, monsters released by it's effect, are summoned onto the felid at the end of my turn! And with that, I'll end my turn."
"If planning won't work, I'll crush you then!" Sawatari yelled like a crazy person.
"Sorry for putting you guys through all that." Yuya said.
"It was so cool, I got goosebumps!" One of the little boys said.
"I believed in you too, Yuya-nii." The blue-haired boy said.
"Yuya, Take him down!" Yuzu said.
"Get him!" The red-haired girl said.
"You teach him to never mess with our school's duelists, Yuya!" I said as they all stared at me, and by all, I also mean Sawatari.
"What are you guys staring at?" I asked, confused.
"I think it's a little too early planning for Halloween, Kit." Yuya said.
"What are you talking about, I'm not wearing a-" Then it hit me, my tail must be showing.
I looked back and saw my fox-like tail swaying back and forth.
"Oh, that's just a part of my outfit, now hurry up and beat this sassy dude!" I said.
"Alright then, I draw!" Yuya said as he drew a card from his deck.
He looked at his card and grinned.
"Let's do this, Astromancy, Chronomancy!" Yuya said. "The fun has just begun!"
Suddenly, the city started to go into a major blackout.
"It's finally happening!" The three kids said, their voices full of excitement.
"Now, say it with me people," The little girl said. "Pendulum! Pendulum! Pendulum!"
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" Yuya began as a gaint spotlight shined on him. "Today we have a fabulous light show for you! And if you're wanting to see a Pendulum Summon, don't forget about these guys!"
"The Magicians of Astromancy and Chronomancy!" The little kids said.
"Lets have these two bring in the stars of today's performance! And you guys remember what to say, right?" Yuya asked the 'audience'.
"DUH YEAH WE DO!" We all said.
"I set the pendulum scale with scale 1 Magician of Astromancy, and scale 8 Magician of Chronomancy!" Yuya said as both of them appeared on the field.
"With this, I'm able to summon multiple monsters between the levels 2 and 7! Sway, pendulum of the soul! draw an arc of light across the ether!" Yuya said.
"PENDULUM SHOKAN!" We said along with him.
"Appear, my monsters!" After Yuya said that, a frog with a top hat, a polka-dot bowtie, and vest appeared on the field.
"Entermate Fliptoad!" Yuya said, and soon after, a scorpion also with a top hat, and a polka-dot bowtie appered on the field,and instead of claws, he had shelids with stars on them.
"Entermate Kailedo Scropion!" Yuya said. "And let us not forget, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" And the next thing that happened, Odd-eyes was on the field.
"YAY, HE DID IT!" The kids said.
"That was amazing, Yuya!" Me and Yuzu said.
"What about that was so amazing?" Sawatari asked. "One's level 6, but has only 100 attack, and the other has none! They're all just garbage cards!"
"Oh really?" Yuya asked. "My scorpion's effect is quite ferocious! Now, my dear audience, it might be bright, but don't close your eyes! And now, I activate Kailedo Scropion's effect!"
Suddenly, a light spectrum came from Kailedo's tail and landed on one of Sawatari's monsters.
"W-what's happening?!" Sawatari said.
"This effect activates when there is a pendulum summoned monster on the opponent's field, and that monster was Ultimate Darts Shooter!" Yuya said.
"Yeah, so?"
"Well, I'll pick one of my Pendulum monsters," Yuya said as he touched Odd-eyes' talon, and soon enough, it and Sawatari's monsters were all glowing, then, there were three Odd-eyes on the field!
"And now it can attack multiple times! This is Keiledo Mirage! " Yuya finished.
"It's so pretty!" The little girl said as two of the Odd-eyes flew up into the jet-black sky.
"And know, Odd-eyes, attack Ultimate Darts Shooter!" Yuya ordered as a Odd-eyes started heading for Sawatari's monster.
"But before we do that, do any of you know what it's monster effect is?" Yuya asked.
"Whenever it goes against a level five or above monster, the damage is doubled!" The kid with blue hair said.
"That's right! Meaning that you'll be taking 200 pionts of damage!"
"NANI?! DOUBLE?!" Sawatari said as Odd-eyes attacked his monster, making him fall into the water with 3800 Life points.
"IN YOU'RE FACE, SAWATARI!" I yelled from Yuya's side.
"That's not all, I'm also going to attack Rocket Darts Shooter!" Yuya said as the next Odd-eyes went after the next monster. "And the damage is, like last time, doubled!"
Then, Odd-eyes attacked Rocket Darts Shooter, and Sawatari started to run away from the battle damage, but everyone knows you can never run away from battle damage, so his life went down to 2600.
"And finally, I'll attack Power Darts Shooter!" Yuya said as the last Odd-eyes went running towards the last monster on Sawatari's side.
"Go, SPIRAL SRIKE BURST!" And after that was said, Odd-eyes blew out a crimson-colored spiral, that was heading straight for Power Darts Shooter.
"And you'll be hit with, how much damage again?" Yuya asked.
"DOUBLE!" We all said as Sawatari, again, tried to outrun the damage, but, like always, he got hit, 1200 life points left.
"Well you're getting pretty carried away with yourself, aren't you?" Sawatari said as he stood up. "But I still have some life left!"
"With those monsters, Yuya-nii won't be able to win!" One of the boys said.
"Don't worry," Yuzu said as a smile appeared on her face. "Look at Yuya."
He had a grin on his face, then, at that moment, I remembered how scared he looked when I stared into the crystal ball.
/I should tell him soon,/ I thought as I looked at my Lunarstone bracelet. /But if I do, I wonder what the rest of my family will think about me telling my deepest secret with a Human./
"Now it's the time you've all been waiting for," Yuya said as Fliptoad and Block Spider came towards him. "The appearance of the stars of today's show!"
"Stars?! That's just an monster with 0 attack, and the other's in defense mode!" Sawatari said.
"True, they won't be able to attack," Yuya said as a look of relief appeared on Sawatari's face. "But, Fliptoad can flip something around, witch is..."
Then, Block Spider's mode changed from defense to attack mode, witch was 1200, enough to teach that guy a lesson.
"Block Spider's attack...became 1200?!" Sawatari said with shock in his voice.
"That's right, because when you use Fliptoad's effect, it can change modes, and that card's attack becomes half it's defense!" Yuya explained as Sawatari started to sweat, a lot.
"No, this can't be!"
"Now then," Yuya started. "When you, with only 1200 life points left, get's attacked by Block Spider with the same amount of attack points, how much life will you have then?"
"T-that's.." I heard Sawatari whisper.
"Everyone, I'm sure you all know, right?" Yuya asked.
"Yeah!" We all said.
"Well then, everyone with me, let's make an attack with Block Spider!" Yuya said as Block Spider attacked Sawatari, leaving him hidden in a cloud of dust.
"And the answer is..."
Then, we saw Sawatari's life points drop to 0.
"ZERO!" We said when we saw the number.
Suddenly, there were fireworks in the shape of spider webs that appeared along with regular ones.
"HE DID IT!" We all cheered as the city started to disappear.
"If it's come to this," Sawatari said as he stood up. "I'll just take them by force! Get them, Guys!" Sawatari said as his goons ran towards us.
"DON'T YOU DARE, YOU PETHETIC HU-!" I screamed as I stepped in front of Yuya, my arms spread out, but out of the corner of my eye, I saw a figure that seemed to move really fast, and the next thing I knew, there was Sawatari and his goons, lying on the ground sleeping.
"Man, these guys were uncool until the very end, weren't they?" I voice said.
"Did you just-?"Yuya asked the mysterious person in front of me.
"You looked really awesome back there!" He said as I got a better look at him. He had Light blue hair that was styled in a ponytail, light skin, and lime-green eyes.
"Are you a student here?" Yuya asked the boy.
"Well, I was going to enroll, but now I'm not." He said.
"I would like to be your student!" He said.
"WHAT?!" We said.
"Student?!" Yuya asked.
He nodded.
"If I'm going to have someone teach me, I might as well pick somebody interesting!" He said.
"And since I came here, you seem to be the coolest person one I've seen!"
"Are they going to be alright?" Yuzu asked as she pointed to Sawatari and his goons.
"Yeah, they're just unconscious, that's all," He said. "By the way, my name's Sora, Sora Shiunin, nice to meet you!" He said as him and Yuya shook hands.
"By the way, are you his girlfriend?" Sora asked me.
I felt my face start to heat up.
"What? No!- I mean, we're just friends!" I stuttered as everyone laughed.
/Well, another duel won,/ I thought as I laughed along with them. /But it almost seems like the opponents are getting stronger, and I feel like I should stay here for just a few more days, just to watch Yuya. And who knows, maybe I could enroll in a Duel School, after all, my deck's pretty fired up for a good duel!/
*Regular POV*
"How's it going down there?" A female voice asked.
"I think you should be surprised to find out that she's already made some friends here." The cloaked figure responded.
"Let her stay there a bit longer," The lady said. "I want to see how her dueling skills are."
"Fine, I'll do as you say, your Majesty." The dark figure said.
"I know you will not fail me, agent 13." The lady said as the figure stood there, staring at the group of kids below.
"Let's see what you can do, Kitsune Okami."
