On A Boat

"Ugh, this boat ride is so boring..." I groaned so far I hadn't found any other duelists on the Ferry to Duel Academy that wanted to duel me when they discovered I was in the Slifer Red Dorm.

"Well I think I can remedy that." A female voice said from behind me. "I'm Bella, and my cousin Benji has been lookin' for someone to duel as well." I turned around to see a girl about my age already wearing her Slifer uniform over a black shirt, she wore camo pants and had the same colored boots, if I hadn't heard her voice I would have guessed she was a guy.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me over to another kid, a little older than me, he had a Ra Yellow uniform, open over a black t shirt with a gear pierced by a sword on it, he also had messy brown jeans, he had brown spiky hair and was pretty tall."Hey, Bella, is this the guy that you found to duel me?" He said as he caught sight of Bella and Myself. "He doesn't look so tough..." He mused, he then turned from Bella to me, "Hey kid, what dorm are you in?"

"I'm in Slifer." I said.

"Bell, you could only find a Slifer?" He whined.

"Hey, I'm a Slifer and I can beat you anytime." Bella stated.

"Touche." He chuckled, he turned to me again, "Name's Benjamin, but you can call me Benji." Benji said.

"So, you think you can beat me?" I asked. I slid my duel disk onto my arm.

"Well duh." Benji stated.

"Sorry to break it to ya, but I'm the one that'll win." I said with a smirk. "Let's duel!" As this was said, other passengers have us some room.

Rick:4000
Benji:4000

"I'll go first." I said, I drew my sixth card. "I summon Ally of Justice Garadholg, then I place a facedown, your move." I beckoned to him.

Benji drew a card and smirked. "I set a monster facedown and end my turn"

"Alright, I play my trap, DNA Transplant. I call LIGHT Attribute." I saw Benji's smirk falter. "Which means I attack your facedown." as his monster flipped faceup, my monster got a boost of 200 ATK points. "Your facedown was Morphtronic Boarden, with 1800 DEF points, I can't destroy it with Garadholg, but due to DNA Transplant, I don't take any damage either." I revealed, slightly disappointed. My grin returned though. "But I summon X-Saber Palomuro, now I tune my Garadholg with my Palomuro to Synchro Summon: Ally of Justice Catastor!" A large machine with a golden faceplate appeared.

Machine/Synchro/Effect: At the beginning of the damage step, if this card attacks a non-Dark attributed monster, destroy it without applying damage calculation.

"Now I set one card facedown and end my turn." I said.

"Hm, good job, but not good enough, I play one card facedown and play Ancient Gear Castle, next I summon Ancient Gear knight, and then I play the field spell Geartown, Now I activate the spell card Heavy Storm to destroy all of our spell and trap cards."

"I activate the trap card Imperial Customs, with this card face up on my field, no continuous trap cards can be destroyed except for itself, so DNA Transplant is safe."

"I wasn't after your DNA Transplant, by destroying Geartown, I can Special Summon one 'Ancient Gear' monster from my hand, and I choose the only card in my hand, Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon!" He said as he summoned a huge mechanical dragon to the field.

"You realize that my Catastor's ability makes it so that your monster is dead." I said.

"Huh? CRAP!" Benji facepalmed. "Ugh, I always get carried away. I end my turn."

"Well then it's my turn," I said as I drew a card, "Nice! You lose, I summon Ally of Justice Core Destroyer,"

A monster that looked like a smaller version of Catastor appeared on the field. "Next I activate the ability of my Ally of Justice Cosmic Gateway, since you have three monsters on your field, and at least one of those monsters in LIGHT attribute, I can Special Summon it from my hand!"

"I end my turn with a facedown."

"Alright, time to go." Benji said as he puffed out his chest, "I draw..." As soon as Benji drew his card he hung his head in defeat. "I play, Graceful Charity!" He shot his head up looking really happy. He drew three more cards, then discarded two of them, "Next I play Miracle Synchro Fusion Summon, and remove from play my Ancient Gear Golem, Ancient Gear Knight, and Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon, to fusion summon Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem!"

"Sorry, but I activate my facedown, Bottomless Trap Hole; and with it I banish your Ultimate Golem." I said as I revealed the card, his Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem was dropped into a giant trap hole.

"B-b-but, wow, I end my turn." Benji said simply.

"Alright, I draw and attack you directly with all my monsters."

Rick:4000
Benji:0Winner: Rick

"Yeah, I win!" I cheered in the crowd a young man in blue was watching the duel closely.

Intrigued, he chuckled to himself softly as he walked away, "Well Rick Foster, Blood's just going to have to show you how a real duel would go." He disappeared into the crowd.


A/N: My gosh, I didn't actually know what to do to make this seem real, other than looking up in the wiki different cards and cards of specific archetypes. Thank you to General Hyna for your three OCs, the only one that hasn't been introduced among them is already on the island. Another thanks to JoeSchmoe for his OC, I hope to see the OC that Shane Kor is making, and I can't wait to see SonOfTheTrigods' OC. Thanks for reading and I have the OC form on my profile. You guys are the best! Oh, and to Higuchimon:

A: Jaden still thinks duel monsters is fun, Syrus just worries.

B:Jaden has become (a bit) more responsible.

C:Refresh my mind on who O'Brian is, I haven't seen the show in years.

D:I mainly used Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds World Championship 2010 to simulate my duel with Syrus, and it was Pikeru as the CPU duelist.

Other than that, thank you for your review, I love getting reviews where other Authors help to critique my work. Everyone is welcome to send an OC in, either by PM or by Review (For those of you who are guests.)
