Chapter 2: The Secret Is Leaking
A/N: Akiza's deck is from "Stardust Accelerator" in this Fanfic. Any other person in this fanfic that was in "Stardust Accelerator" will have the deck that was in that game.
Card Keep, Day Of The Start Of The Fortune Cup Hosted By Corp. Ichiban
During the First Battle
The Keep was a dim lit place, filled with long corridors and safes filled with cards and Duel Runners. Secruitys were positioned at every door, people walking through the dim lit corridors. Everything was covered in metal and paint, the walls, the doors, the elevators, almost everything. Inside of the keep was a very secret room, covered in detectors and cameras, there was a small safe. It contained something very secret to the Ichiban Corperation. Soldiers were posted at every corner in the room, walking around and talking with guns slung across their back on straps.
The card hidden in the safe was the proclaimed "713th card" that Pegasus had created, when he had only produced 600 cards.
Something very strange happened on this day. First, the whole building shook angrily, like the gods were angered and took their wrath out on the humans.
The safe's door burst open, the Soldiers had quickly aimed their guns at the safe, expecting something drastic to happen.
The safe poured out black cloudy smoke which covered the room, as the safe blew up in a flurryof metal shards. The metal shards flew everywhere, hitting some Soldiers.
The room began to collapse, and the sound of it collapsing rang through the hallways of the building like a loud bell alarming the people that enemys were coming. Everything happened quickly. There were spontaneous explosions around the area of the building that the safe was in. Hallways were collapsing with people below them. Screams and yells echoed through the corridors.
Then, it was all over.
There were mounds and mounds of rubble of the old east wing of the Keep with bodies crushed under the heavy stones. A mound of the rubble shook violently, and a man with a blunt face, sporting a blue suit and red tie, shook off the rocks and shook his head...
After the start of the Fortune Cup and the first duel
"What...Happened...?" Irou said quietly, as he approached a mound of rubble.
"We don't know sir, there was just a random explosion, and the whole east wing exploded!" the Secruity said, staring at the rubble through his helmet.
"Hm. Well, try to find survivors. And don't tell any of the public about this..." Irou turned on his heel and started walking towards the Stadium, not looking back at the Keep.
Irou walked back to the stadium with his head down. He mumbled to himself, wondering to himself quietly. He entered the lobby of the stadium, hoping to see Akiza's duel if she was still dueling.
Irou knew Akiza pretty well. During his childhood, Irou met her near the sidewalk leading to the Tops. She was crying near a dumpster when they were ten. Irou then helped her let out her feelings, and they became the best of friends. Irou learned almost everything about her, and when they were 15, they started dating. Before their first kiss, though, Irou was taken prisoner by Trudge, and sent to the Facility. After that, Akiza forgot him, his face, everything.
Irou could never forget Akiza's face before they kissed.
This thought also haunted Irou's mind, as he was worrying enough about the Keep exploding.
Irou sat down at a chair refurbished with blue leather, and watched the screen. Akiza's duel was over, Irou had missed it.
Akiza came out of the elevator door, heading for the Stadium door. Irou jumped up and grabbed her arm.
"Akiza, Duel with me!"
Akiza replied, "What?"
"Well, I missed your duel! So, I want to see the skills you have."
Akiza thought about this for a few seconds.
"OK. Meet me at the Underground Dueling Arena in Daimon."
Irou nodded and said quietly to himself, "Yess!"
Irou arrived at the Underground Dueling Arena in Daimon. The place was filled with trash,broken bottles, broken tables and chairs, but a Duel field in the middle of it. Akiza was standing on one side of the field in the dim lit arena, holding her duel disk in her left arm. Irou stood on the other side, the duel disk on his right arm (Irou was left handed).
They both yelled, "Let's Duel!"
They both started with 8000 Life Points.
"Ladies first." Irou said politly.
Both of them drew five cards, Akiza drawing one more card to signal her turn.
"Right...First I summon Hedge Guard in Defense Postion!"
A small wall of bamboo and dirt rose from the ground with 2100 Defense points and colored light blue.
"Then I set two cards facedown and end my turn!"
Irou smirked.
"Alright! My turn!"
Irou drew a card from his deck.
"I set one card facedown, and end my turn."
Irou put a card facedown on his duel disk.
Akiza drew a card from her deck.
"My turn!... I activate The World Tree!"
A spell card with a picture of a healthy, large tree appeared on the field.
"Then I summon Lonefire Blossom!"
A flower with a bomb instead of a bud covered in vines appeared on the field with 500 ATK points.
"Now I activate Lonefire Blossom's effect! I can tribute it to summon..."
The Lonefire Blossom shattered suddenly, as a large woman covered in plants and roses with pink petals as a lower half of the body, sinking into a 6 large red petals. The creature stood there, arms crossed.
"Tytannial, Princess of Camellias! Now, Tytannial, destroy that facedown!"
Irou smirked.
Tytannial flicked one finger up, and large thorns rose from the ground below the facedown, destroying it (it was Sangan).
"HA!" Irou said with a laugh. "Now I activate Sangan's Special Ability! Now, I can get a card from my deck and put it in my hand..."
Irou's duel disk exerted a card, and Irou took it, putting it in his hand.
"Now, are you done, Akiza?"
Akiza stared into his eyes, nodding.
"Good, My Turn!"
Irou drew a card from his deck.
"Now I activate Cyber Dragon's Special Effect! I summon it to the field!"
The Cyber Dragon appeared, its silver body shimmering with the little light they had.
"Then I summon The Light - Hex Sealed Fusion!"
A rock made out of metallic objects such as metal plates and jewels appeared on the field, light pouring out of the small spaces in it.
"Then... By tributing both of them, I can summon..."
Both Cyber Dragon and Light - Hex Sealed Fusion shattered to pieces.
"Cyber Twin Dragon!!"
Cyber Twin Dragon appeared, its silver body shining more beautifuly. The two heads stared at Tytannial, roaring softly.
"Then I activate Vehicroid Connection Zone! By taking these three cards and putting them into the graveyard..."
Irou put Drillroid, Submarineroid, and Steamroid in the GY slot.
"I can summon Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill!!"
A large drill, complete with train wheels, clawed cartoony hands, and a submarine dorsal fin appeared on the field, exiting steam from its wheels with 3000 ATK points.
"This duel is over, Honey. Jumbo Drill, destroy that Tytannial!"
The large drill charged at the womanly monster.
"I activate Wall Of Thorns!"
"Too late, Honey, my Vehicroid Connection Zone negates any Spell, Trap, or Monster effect that's targeted to my Jumbo Drill. Although, my Cyber Twin Dragon is destroyed, as he doesn't have the same protection as Jumbo Drill..."
Cyber Twin Dragon shattered to pieces, Irou smirking.
The Drill charged on, drilling right though Tytannial, shattering it to pieces as Akiza got struck with 200 battle damage.
"Then, I set two cards facedown and end my turn."
Akiza drew a card from her deck, her face expressionless.
"I activate Monster Reborn, to return Lonefire Blossom from my Graveyard to my Field!"
The blossom appeared on the field.
"Then I summon Copy Plant in attack position!"
A small monster covered in dark green vines planted in the ground with yellow eyes peering out of two small spaces near the head, appeared on the field.
"Now I tune Copy Plant, Hedge Guard, and Lonefire Blossom to summon Black Rose Dragon!!"
All the monsters on Akiza's field vanished with a gust of wind, as a large black dragon with long red talons, a tail that is covered in thorns, also a feirce armoured neck, and the middle portion and the wings large rose petals appeared on the field, flapping its wings.
"Now I activate Miracle Fertilizer to bring back Tytannial!"
The womanly monster appeared on the field, its arms crossed.
"Now I also activate The World Tree's Special Effect! When you destroyed my Tytannial using your Jumbo Drill, a Flower Counter was placed on my World Tree. By removing one Flower Counter from my Tree, I can increase the attack of Tytannial by 400 'til the end of my turn! Now, Tytannial, destroy Jumbo Drill!"
Tytannial flicked a hand up, and large vines came out of the ground and wrapped themselves around Super Vehicroid Jumbo Drill. They vines then crushed it, making Jumbo Drill shatter into pieces.
"Well well, it seems you've broken through my perfect defense."
"Now, Black Rose Dragon, direct attack!"
The dragon flapped its wings at Irou, causing slicing wind to decrease his life points to 5600.
Irou's personality suddenly shifted, as he stopped smirking but gained a more serious look.
"Now, my turn!"
Irou drew a card.
"Hmm... Alright, I activate Dark Eruption! By removing from play Cyber Dragon...And my whole hand of Machines, I can summon Chimeratech Overdragon!"
Irou sent all 5 cards in his hand to the RFP slot, along with his Cyber Dragon. A monster with one large rounded off metallic body with multiple buttons in places with a long clawed tail, and multiple cyber dragon heads protruding out of the main body, squirming around as it appeared with 3800 ATK points.
"Now, Overdragon, attack Tytannial and Black Rose Dragon, and finish this duel!"
Overdragon shot multiple blasts at Black Rose Dragon, destroying it and causing Akiza to lose 1400 Life Points. The Overdragon then shoot blasts at Tytannial, causing it to shatter to pieces.
"Now, Overdragon, attack directly!"
Overdragon shot blueish-white shots at Akiza, making her Life Points decrease to 1000.
"Overdragon, one more time!"
The dragon charged a heavy beam, shooting it at Akiza, and her Life Points decreased to 0 as she stumbled back, and the cards on the field vanished.
Irou walked up to Akiza, holding out his hand.
"Good duel."
Akiza gripped his hand hesitently. Irou pulled her in, kissing her lips suddenly. Akiza's eyes widened and looked into Irou's eyes, blushing darkly. At that moment, she saw Irou's 15 year old face under his 19 year old demeaner.
Back at the stadium, Irou sat in the lobby room. He was thinking to himself, looking down at the ground. He stood up, walking out of the Stadium, and going into a garage door near the main Stadium door. Irou turned the light on, and a Duel Runner was in the middle of the room. The runner looked like the D-Wheel in shape, only it was painted black with gold thick lines coming down in a zig-zag shape. The seat was black leather with white marks all over, showing the leather was almost run-down. Irou, still in his black cloak, put on a black with orange lens helmet on, sitting down on the leather, bending down to reach the handles. Irou pushed a button, and the garage door opened slowly. Irou revved the engine, and the Duel Runner quickly zoomed out of the garage and heading towards the New Highway, leaving only a trail of dust.
Once on the New Highway, Irou kept driving. He heard the sound of a revving engine and another Duel Runner riding up to him. The Rider had a mask something like a Gas Mask. He also wore a bullet-proof vest, and an extra armor plate on his chest. The Rider was riding a Secruity's Runner (Like Trudge's). Irou looked at the man, gasping slightly. His eyes widened as he thought to himself. "Could...Could he have been reborn?!"
