Hey guys! Back with yet another chapter for my new story and already 8 authors have given me their characters. In the end of this chapter, the characters will be decided by me. For the three people who weren't lucky, I apologize but this is my decision. Maybe for my next OC story, I'll consider putting your ideas in. Enjoy.
Chapter 2:
The next day...
As Kakashi was heading to the entrance Pelican City Duel Academy in his Slifer Red uniform, Peter, who's also Slifer Red, waved at him and said,"Morning, Kakashi!"
"Morning Peter! How's it going?"
"Not much. I heard you got ambushed yesterday by a group of crooks. How'd you manage to get away?" Peter asked.
"Oh you wouldn't believe it. A guy that jumped from a rooftop came to my rescue and beat the gang leader like he was nothing! I am hoping to be his apprentice soon!"
"Kakashi. You can't expect to be someone's apprentice after just one duel."
"What was that?"
Elsewhere at the same abandoned warehouse, Yukimura was just getting up and started doing exercises around the room. After exercising, he grabbed a towel from his bag and cleaned his face of the sweat.
"I wonder if I can get this place operational." Yukimura said while looking around the warehouse.
"Well. It can't be helped. I guess I'll go around the city for a quick run." Yukimura said to himself as he geared up and went out the way he got inside the warehouse and onto the rooftops.
Back at Duel Academy, the teaching periods had just ended and it was time for dueling period outside the school. Kakashi and Peter were walking around to find some opponents to duel with.
"Hey, Peter. Do even you see any duelists to duel with?"
"I don't believe so because there's not a single person who would want to duel us Slifers."
"Oh please! I want to challenge powerful duelists! It's just that I don't have enough skill." Kakashi said looking down at his deck.
"Will I be able to break my losing streak at this school?" Kakashi said to himself.
"AAAHHH!" A scream was heard.
"Huh? What was that?" Kakashi said but then gasped as well as Peter of the familiar scream.
"You don't think that? Shingen is in trouble?" Peter said as the two ran and was surprised of who Shingen was dueling. Sasuke in an Obelisk Blue uniform.
Shingen: 400
Sasuke: 3400
"What!? Shingen is dueling Sasuke?" Peter said.
"What the hell are you doing, Shingen!? Why are you dueling Sasuke!?" Kakashi shouted.
Back in the duel, Shingen currently had no cards in his hand and field while Sasuke has Nekroz of Brionac in ATK mode along with one card in his hand.
Nekroz of Brionac: Lv. 6 WATER Warrior/Ritual ATK: 2300/ DEF: 1400
"This duel is over. Your deck is mine. Brionac! Attack his LP directly!"
"GAAHH!"
Shingen: 0
Sasuke: 3400(Winner)
As the duel was over, Sasuke walked over to Shingen and took his deck from his duel disk. "Heh. As promised! I'm taking your deck!"
"Hey, Sasuke! What do you think your doing taking my friend's deck like that!?" Kakashi shouted.
"We had a little duel to see who's deck gets taken but your friend got too over confident and that led me to taking away his deck."
"It's not my fault. He just annoyed me which got me to duel him." Shingen said as he got off the ground.
"Give me back his deck!" Kakashi shouted at Sasuke in rage.
"I don't think so. If you want this deck so badly, then your gonna have to beat me in a duel but that's impossible because a Slifer can never defeat an Obelisk like us." Kakashi growled when suddenly Yukimura landed in front of him.
"Sorry pal. But I'll be your opponent this time." Yukimura said looking up.
"And who are you supposed to be punk?" Sasuke asked.
After Yukimura made his appearance, students were whispering about who he is and who he think he is challenging Sasuke.
"The name's Yukimura Yashida. I'm a duelist who wanders the country in search of strong opponents and helping people who are helpless. I heard from the commoners of this city that your strongest in this city and school. I hope I was not interrupting something." Yukimura said looking back at Kakashi and then to Sasuke.
"It doesn't matter. I just beat a worthless Slifer and took his deck. Is that a problem?" Sasuke said.
"It is! You don't understand. A deck is the heart of the duelist who puts their soul into it. If you don't understand that, then you are not a worthy duelist of the soul!" Yukimura stated.
Sasuke then growled as he shouted back,"Who cares about the soul of the duelist!? This game is based on skill! And I will show you that you shouldn't mess with me!" Sasuke then prepared his duel disk as did Yukimura. "If I win, I'm taking back the deck you stole." Yukimura said. "Fine. But if I win, I'm taking your deck!" Sasuke said. As they prepared, the students started to gather around the two and unknown to them, the headmaster was watching from his office window. "Well well. It looks like we have an interesting duelist here who's not a student."
"DUEL!"
Turn 1
Yukimura: 4000
Hand: 5
Sasuke: 4000
Hand: 5
"I'll start things off. I summon Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands in ATK mode."
Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands: Lv. 4 LIGHT ATK: 1400/ DEF: 1000
"And for his effect, I add from my deck the ritual spell Nekroz Mirror. I set one card facedown and end my turn.
Turn 2
Yukimura: 4000
Hand: 5
Sasuke: 4000
Hand: 4
"My turn. I draw."
"Alright! I summon War Dragon - Jinraidragon in ATK mode!"
War Dragon - Jinraidragon: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 1800/ DEF: 1300
"War Dragons? I've never even heard of that archetype before!" Sasuke said.
"That's because this is a deck that is unique for me." Yukimura explained.
"Next, I activate the continuous spell card War Dragon Sanctuary! As long as this card is on the field, all War Dragon monsters on my field gain 500 ATK points and every time a War Dragon attacks, this card gains one counter."
Jinraidragon ATK: 1800-2300
"Battle! Jinraidragon! Attack Manju! I activate his effect! When this card declares an attack, he gains 800 ATK until the end of the Battle!"
Jinraidragon ATK: 2300-3100
War Dragon Sanctuary Counter: 0-1
"3-3100 ATK!? Tch! No choice. I activate my trap Mirror Wall! Now your monster's ATK is cut in half!"
Jinraidragon ATK: 3100-1550
"What does it matter? My monster is still stronger."
"Grgh!"
Sasuke: 4000-3850
"After the battle is over, your monster's ATK returns to normal."
Jinraidragon ATK: 1550-2300
"Not bad. I place one card facedown and end my turn."
Turn 3
Yukimura: 4000
Hand: 3
Sasuke: 3850
Hand: 4
"You're gonna pay for that! I draw!"
"I activate the ritual spell Nekroz Kaleiodscope! It may look like a normal ritual card to you but this card allows me to send one monster from my Extra Deck to the graveyard to summon any Nekroz Ritual monster! I send from my Extra Deck Herald of the Arc Light to the graveyard! Ritual Summon! Appear, Level 4! Nekroz of Unicore!"
Nekroz of Unicore: Lv. 4 WATER Spellcaster/Ritual ATK: 2300/ DEF: 1000
"Now I activate Herald's effect! When he's sent to the graveyard, I can add a Ritual monsters or spell to my hand! I add Nekroz Cycle to my hand. Next I activate Graceful Charity!"
"I pick up three cards and then discard two." Sasuke said as he drew and discarded two cards.
"I now play Nekroz Cycle! Now I can Ritual Summon a Nekroz Ritual monster from my hand or graveyard! I send from my hand Shurit, Strategist of the Nekroz to the graveyard! Ritual Summon! Arise, Level 7! Nekroz of Gungnir!"
Nekroz of Gungnir: Lv. 7 WATER Spellcaster/Ritual ATK: 2500/ DEF: 1700
"Wait a minute! How did you do that? I thought you needed to equal the levels to summon the required monster!" Yukimura blurted out.
"That would be true but when Shurit is used for a Ritual Summon, he counts as the whole tribute. Now for Shurit's effect! When sent to the graveyard for a Ritual Summon, I can add a Warrior-Type Nekroz monster from my deck to my hand. I add Brionac to my hand. Next I use Brionac's effect from my hand! I discard it and then add Nekroz of Decisive Armor to my hand." Sasuke said.
"Now I activate Nekroz Mirror! It may not look like much but this card allows me to banish monsters in my graveyard to Ritual summon! I banish Shurit from my graveyard. Ritual Summon! Come forth, Level 10! Nekroz of Decisive Armor!"
Nekroz of Decisive Armor: Lv. 10 WATER Dragon/Ritual ATK: 3300/ DEF: 2300
"Whoa! 3 Rituals in one turn!? No way!" Kakashi said from the sidelines. The other students were commenting on Sasuke like "As expected of Sasuke.","That is so awesome!" and "That guy is toast!".
"Well? What do you think of me now huh?" I'll finish you off in one turn! But before I do that, I activate the spell Ritual Treasure! For every Ritual monster that's on the field, I get to draw one card. There are 3 on my field so I draw three cards. Draw!"
"This duel is over! I now activate Nekroz of Decisive Armor's effect! I can target one set card on the field and banish it!" The dragon shot a blue beam and banished Yukimura's facedown.
"With this your defenses are lowered." Sasuke said.
"I was expecting that." Yukimura countered.
"What?" Sasuke said.
"The facedown card that you banished was this! The trap card Burst Flame! Normally this card would stop your attack against my FIRE monster and then end the battle but it has another effect! When this card leaves the field by a card effect, this instantly cuts the ATK points of all your monsters by 2000 points!" A fire appeared from the card and then burnt the Nekroz monsters.
"What!?"
Nekroz of Unicore ATK: 2300-300
Nekroz of Gungnir ATK: 2500-500
Nekroz of Decisive Armor ATK: 3300-1300
"Grr! Damn you!"
"And the best part about this card is that the effect lasts until the end of your next turn. But now it's still your move."
"Tch! I place a card facedown and end my turn."
Turn 4
Yukimura: 4000
Hand: 3
Sasuke: 3850
Hand: 2
"My turn. I draw."
"I'll activate the spell card Burst Draw. When my opponent controls two monsters then I do, I can draw two cards from my deck!"
"I now summon War Dragon - Yin in ATK mode!"
War Dragon - Yin: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 2000/ DEF: 1500
"When this monster is summoned, I can special summon from my deck War Dragon - Yang in DEF mode."
War Dragon - Yang: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 1500/ DEF: 2000
"And with my Sanctuary on my field, my monsters gain a boost."
War Dragon - Yin ATK: 2000-2500
War Dragon - Yang ATK: 1500-2000
"Now for the spell Burning Tornado Fire. For every War Dragon monster that's on my field, I can destroy one monster on the field, I have 3. So now I destroy all three of your Nekroz monsters!"
"I think not! Before my monsters will be destroyed, I activate Gungnir's effect! By discard a Nekroz from my hand, one of your monsters is destroyed! I destroy Jinraidragon!"
"I now activate another one of my Sanctuary's effect. Be removing one counter from it, my monster's destruction is negated!"
War Dragon Sanctuary Counter: 1-0
"Damn you!"
"Now I play Yang's effect! By paying 800 LP. Nrgh!"
Yukimura: 3200
"I can use this monster and one other War Dragon on my field for a Fusion Summon!"
"What!?"
"A Fusion Summon?" Kakashi said confused.
"It's a type of Summon that usually requires two monsters and a Fusion card to summon the required monster but in this guy's play it's different."
"The monsters that I choose to fuse are War Dragon - Yin and Yang! Dragons of two opposites become one! Become the light and darkness that brings an even bigger flame! Fusion Summon! Come forth, Level 8! War Dragon - YinYang Samurai Dragon!"
War Dragon - YinYang Samurai Dragon: Lv. 8 FIRE Dragon/Fusion ATK: 2900/ DEF: 2300
"A Fusion monster? Just who are you?" Sasuke said.
"Me? Heh. I'm just a wandering duelist like I told you before. And due to my Sanctuary, YinYang Samurai Dragon gains 500 ATK points!"
War Dragon - YinYang Samurai Dragon ATK: 2900-3400
"Battle! Jinraidragon! Attack his LP directly! And due to his effect, he gains 800 ATK!"
Jinraidragon ATK: 2300-3100
"Not this time! From my graveyard, I activate Yumi, Sage of the Nekroz effect! When I would take a direct attack, I can special summon this card from my graveyard in DEF mode!"
Yumi, Sage of the Nekroz: Lv. 5 WATER Spellcaster ATK: 300/ DEF: 2700
"When this card is attacked, it can't be destroyed once. Grgh!"
"After this monster is attacked, it loses all it's DEF points."
Yumi DEF: 2700-0
"YinYang Samurai Dragon! Attack Yumi!" YinYang Samurai Dragon dashed as it sliced Yumi down.
"Grgh! When Yumi is destroyed after using it's effect, it is banished and I draw a card. With this, my LP are safe."
"Is that so?"
"Huh?"
"I activate YinYang Samurai Dragon's effect! By paying 500 of it's ATK, it can attack again!" the dragon roared as a red aura bursted and cut down 500 ATK.
War Dragon - YinYang Samurai Dragon ATK: 3400-2900
"No!"
"YinYang Samurai Dragon! Attack once again! Razorwind Burning Slash!"
"GAAHHH!" The crowd gasped as Sasuke was forced back alot by YinYang Samurai Dragon.
Sasuke: 3850-950
"Now that the battle is over, 3 counters are added to my Sanctuary."
War Dragon Sanctuary Counter: 0-3
"Now I activate my Sanctuary's final effect! By removing 3 counters from this card, I can add any War Dragon monster from my deck to my hand." a card slid out from Yukimura's duel disk as he added the card to his hand.
Sasuke was struggling as he growled. "Why you! Nobody as ever gotten my LP this low before! I'm gonna make sure you feel more pain! I activate the trap Torrential Abyss! When any number of WATER monsters were destroyed due to an effect, I can summon them back with their effects negated and in DEF mode! Be reborn! My monsters!"
Nekroz of Unicore: Lv. 4 WATER Spellcaster/Ritual ATK: 2300/ DEF: 1000
Nekroz of Gungnir: Lv. 7 WATER Spellcaster/Ritual ATK: 2500/ DEF: 1700
Nekroz of Decisive Armor: Lv. 10 WATER Dragon/Ritual ATK: 3300/ DEF: 2300
"I'll end my turn with this card facedown."
Turn 5
Yukimura: 3200
Hand: 3
Sasuke: 950
Hand: 2
"It's my turn. DRAW!"
"Heh. Perfect."
"Hmm?"
"I now activate Preparation of Rites! Now I can add a Level 7 or lower Ritual monster from my deck to my hand along with one Ritual card in my Graveyard. I add from my deck, Clausolas and from my grave, Nekroz Kaleidoscope."
"I now play Nekroz Kaleidoscope! But this time I'm using Clausolus in my hand, Unicore and Decisive Armor on my field! Ritual Summon! Come forth! The highest of all the Nekroz's! Level 11! Nekroz of Sophia!"
Nekroz of Sophia: Lv. 11 WATER Spellcaster/Ritual ATK: 3600/ DEF: 3400
"3600 ATK?" Yukimura said. The students around cheered for Sasuke's ace monster.
"And this one has a nasty effect. When she is successfully summoned, all cards on the field and in our graveyard are banished!"
"Not unless I chain my trap card The Flame of Life! For every FIRE monster that's on my field, I gain 300 LP. I have two, so therefore I gain 600 LP!" Yukimura quickly reacted before every card was banished.
Yukimura: 3200-3800
"In that case. Battle! Sophia! Attack his LP directly!" Sophia fired an Ice Beam that almost sent Yukimura flying.
"GAAHHH!"
Yukimura: 3800-200
The students cheered even harder at Sasuke's comeback.
"You're lucky that trap saved you but it doesn't matter. I now end my turn." Sasuke stated as Yukimura got up with his hair shadowing his eyes.
Turn 6
Yukimura: 200
Hand: 3
Sasuke: 950
Hand: 1
"What's wrong? Did I damage your pride that you can't even keep going? If you can't, then I suggest you-" Sasuke was cut off when Yukimura started laughing.
"Oh man! I haven't had a duel this fun in a while!"
"Wha-...Fun!? This game isn't about fun! It's about who wins with skill! And with only 200 LP left, you won't last!"
Yukimura then smirked and said,"Heh! We'll see about that. I DRAW!"
"It's here! First I'll activate the effect of War Dragon - Trap Caesar! By discarding this card from my hand, I can activate a trap from my hand! I activate the trap Return from the Different Dimension! After paying half my LP, I can special summon as many banished monsters for one turn! Now come forth once again, my monsters!"
Yukimura: 200-100
War Dragon - Jinraidragon: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 1800/ DEF: 1300
War Dragon - Yin: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 2000/ DEF: 1500
War Dragon - Yang: Lv. 4 FIRE Dragon ATK: 1500/ DEF: 2000
War Dragon - YinYang Samurai Dragon: Lv. 8 FIRE Dragon/Fusion ATK: 2900/ DEF: 2300
"I activate Sophia's effect! With this card, you can't summon any monsters from your Extra Deck! With this it's game over for you!"
"No. I have the perfect plan set out."
"What are you talking about!?"
"I never thought I'd have to do this but you leave me no choice. My Extra Deck isn't the only cards I use! In order to summon this specific monster in my hand, I can tribute two monsters to Normal Summon it or tribute two Dragons with equal ATK or DEF to Special Summon it! I tribute both Yin and Yang! Rise up! The dragon general that has fought centuries ago! Be Reborn in your burning soul! War Dragon - Souldragon!"
War Dragon - Souldragon: Lv. 7 FIRE Dragon ATK: 2500/ DEF: 2000
The students were amazed at the dragon that appeared.
"So what! Your Dragon's 2500 ATK won't beat my Sophia's 3600 ATK. It seems that I win this one."
"Hmph. I wouldn't jump to conclusions already! Battle! Souldragon! Attack Sophia!"
"You fool! You just led yourself to defeat! Counter attack!" Sophia blocked but was being pushed back by Souldragon.
"What!? What's going on!?"
"It's Souldragon's special ability! When Souldragon battles a Level/Rank 5 or higher monster, Souldragon negates your monster's effect and then gains half your monster's ATK for a total of 4300!"
War Dragon - Souldragon ATK: 2500-4300
"What!? No! Grgh!"
Sasuke: 950-250
"Nice try, but I'm still standing! On my next turn-"
"Nope! You're not getting a next turn."
"Huh?"
"Souldragon's final ability activates! When this card successfully destroys your monster by returning it's ATK to normal, it can attack again!"
War Dragon - Souldragon ATK: 4300-2500
"N-No! Impossible!"
"RAAHHH! My soul is burning! Burn! Souldragon! Scorch the rest of his LP! Burning Soul Slash!"
"GAAAHHHH!"
Sasuke: 0
Yukimura: 100(Winner)
After the duel was over, the students were dumbfounded as they just witnessed Sasuke's defeat for the first time in a while. One person decided to break the silence by cheering for Yukimura as the others followed.
"Now as promised. Give back the deck you took." Yukimura said holding out his hand.
"Fine then! Here!" Sasuke said throwing it to him as he caught it.
"That was fun, but I need to get going." Yukimura said as he started to leave when someone stopped him.
"Wait." A mysterious voice said as Yukimura turned around to the source of the voice.
"And you are?" Yukimura asked.
"I am the headmaster of this Duel Academy, Hotaru Stork. I must say that you are a talented duelist to have defeated one of my best students here."
"And your point is?"
"My point is...I would like to offer you a place here at Duel Aca-" Hotaru was cut off when Yukimura spoke out.
"I refuse."
"Hmm? And why is that?"
"I stopped going to school a while ago. I'm not going back."
"A but there are far stronger duelists here in this academy that can give you a run for your money. I assure you that if you can just listen to what I say-"
"I said I refuse!"
"If there are strong duelists then where are they?" Yukimura said pointing out to the crowd.
"Whatever. Here, kid." Yukimura said throwing the deck to Kakashi as he caught it.
"Well, I'm out of here." Yukimura took off as he parkoured back to the warehouse.
Back in the academy dueling field, Hotaru said something in his uniform that had a communicating device.
"Send them after him. If he's not cooperating, defeat him if you have to."
