The drop was further than he thought, in honesty though he just wanted away from them. Delta didn't have anything against Yugi, Joey and the others it was just… well… If he stuck around he may end up doing something he regretted… Delta knew the series, he knew it well and he knew that Duellist Kingdom was important to the development of character traits for them, even through his nerves and clouded judgement he knew this was true so the best thing to do he figured was to put some distance between himself and the gang for now. As he landed he stood surprised at his own strength, usually a fall like that would have hurt but then again this world was running by different rules. He guessed that he was currently in the role of the mysterious side character and that the exit only worked because it kept to his role...

"Maybe I shouldn't have just bailed on them like that…" he whispered to himself, rushing off into the forest before he gained the attention of anyone important. He didn't know exactly where he was heading, the series never really showed much of the island's layout but he knew his best chance was to head straight to the rim of the island, to pick off duellists too nervous to enter the forests and plains of duellist kingdom and hopefully he would find his target there too…

Time passed and his sprint slowly to a stride as he traversed the varied environments, he couldn't help but acknowledge the work that had gone into the island, from finding the perfect locations for them to setting up so many different duel arenas across the island. This must have been a monster undertaking for Pegasus, how long had he truly been planning this? Still though he had been walking for some time now and hadn't met anyone, the sky was beginning to bronze over in fact and his hopes were dashed whenever he heard a voice. "Hey, You!" it called out to him. A Duellist of course, but who would be so close to the coast line… Delta turned around, examining the vegetation though there was no trace of the voices origin. "You're that underground duellist right… The Magna Champion…"
Delta sighed, tilting his head as he traced the source of the voice back to a particular tree "You heard about that? Some Announcers need to spend less time announcing I swear…"
"Yeah…" the voice responded, a figure stepping into the light "It's important to know the big shots in tournaments like this…" the figure was short, with a red beanie and brown hair which jotted down to his shoulders, around his forehead were purple strands of hair which parted around his small, pointed face. He wore a green shirt, with a tan vest over it. "I hear you have a pretty rare card, care to roll the di-" he began to speak, although Delta quickly cut in.
"I don't want your Red-Eyes Black Dragon" he asserted quickly, watching the duellist in a rather bored expression "As Weevil would put it… Buzz off"
The boy growled in response, gritting his teeth "So you know what my rarest card is, and you still don't want it? A card as rare as Blue-Eyes and you're not interested…" he grunted, taking off his bag before dropping it to the ground. "I challenge you to a duel, right now, right here!" the duellist declared, pointing at Delta with a growing grin.

"here?" Delta responded, looking around the forest. "Right here?"

"Unless you're scared your electromagna warriors will let you down" he retorted with a chuckle.

"We're in a forest zone, Rex…" Delta spoke with a sigh "Not great planning, since there is no Wilderness here to power up your dinosaurs…"

"No Wilderness yes, but there's also no land that powers up rock monsters, like the Electromagna monsters you have." Rex raptor replied. Delta had to acknowledge usually Wilderness did go hand in hand with desert which powered up rock monsters as well… or which he assumed powered up rock monsters as well… maybe duelling him In a place which provided mutual weakness really was the best bet whenever Rex didn't know what was in Delta's deck…

"If you want a duel then I accept, this will be a perfect warm up" Delta spoke with a smile, pausing for dramatic effect as the two duellists stared at each other. "I wager one star chip against you Rex raptor!" he called out, rex accepting as the ground began to shake, dirt and pebbles being pushed to the side as a mechanical platform began to rose from the hidden depths. It was huge, being made from blue and red metals. Two towers on each side flickered to light as the field came to life, showing a display like that of a laptop, though it only showed forests… a perfect middle to each of the duellist's tactics. Rex quickly climbed into the red control tower, leaving Delta to clamber into the blue, their screens beginning to glow as they showed an interactive interface of the field.
At the top left and right it showed their life count, only 2000 so even one hit could finish off an opponent but Delta had expected as much.

The two stared at each other for a moment as they placed their deck on the interface before shouting "Let's duel!"

"I'll go first" Rex spoke with a grin, drawing his hand "And let's start with a stampede!" he declared, raising a card before slamming it onto the interface "Megazowler!" he called as light exploded outward from the battle field, a large orange dinosaur which seemed to be a cross between a triceratops, and an ankylosaurs appearing in the light's wake. (1800 ATK / 2000 DEF) "I'll set a card and end my turn, What will you do faced with such a powerful start?"

Delta groaned in response, eyes falling to his hand before grinning "I'll place two cards face down" he stated, setting two cards into his spell card zone, before moving a card to the field "And I'll summon Beta, the electromagnet warrior!" he called, sparks flowing out of the middle zone of his side as small, purple robot appeared. (1500 ATK / 1500 DEF) "And thanks to his ability I can bring to my hand Alpha, the electromagnet warrior!" he smirked, gesturing to rex "Your turn"

Rex grinned, drawing a card before declaring "I summon Uraby!" sparks emanated from another of his monster slots, this time however a tall raptor-esc shape appeared snarling and baring its ice pick length silver teeth, eyes glowing like fire (1500 ATK / 800 DEF) "And then I'll activate Increase body heat to increase my megazowler's attack and defence by 300 points!" (2100 ATK / 2300 DEF) he called, laughing as he pointed at Delta "And Now it'll attack, breaking your rock!" The triceratops roared, charging forth as the poor Beta was gored on its horns, breaking into tiny pieces. "And now feel yourself wasting away, turning to dust before my dinosaurs!" Rex called, grinning from ear to ear as he watched, pausing for a moment as he saw no change in life points "W-what?!"

"If you had been paying attention you would have noticed I discarded a Kuriboh, your dinosaur is strong don't get me wrong but it hasn't even scratched me yet." Delta smirked, drawing a card "My turn and I'll start things off by setting another card face down and activate by two set cards." Delta smirked, knowing full well that he were about to win. "It's been fun Rex, but I'll end things here with my twin Rock Bombardments!" he called, placing a hand on each side of his interface as he leaned closer "Each card allows me to send a rock monster from my deck to the graveyard to deal 500 damage to you, cutting your life points in half" he spoke in a lower tone, placing a Alpha the Electro Magna and Gamma the electro magna warrior into the grave before ending his turn.

"Sounds like you're full of volcanic ash!" rex retorted with a laugh "You've left yourself wide open, so my dinosaurs are going to make you extinct for sure, but don't think I've forgot about your facedown card, let me guess… Call of the haunted or Sakuretsu armor? Rex smiled "You'll either summon a creature to block my attack or destroy my Megazowler allowing you to survive this turn in either case but not if I activate two cards. First I'll activate Increase body heat, powering up my Uraby to 1800, then I'll activate the wasteland field spell!" Rex opened his arms wide as suddenly the forest field began to shake and fall, revealing a desolate and empty wasteland. "Now all my dinosaur monsters gain an extra 200 attack, making my Uraby 2000. It doesn't matter who you block Magna champion because soon you'll be a fossil!" he laughed, pointing his finger at Delta "Now, attack my dinosaurs!"

Delta smirked "Rex Raptor, I had thought more of you than that…" he chuckled, staring at the duellist in confidence "I use a deck of weaker monsters which builds up to a strong finish, would you not expect a more adaptable strategy than relying on your attack?" he continued, lowering his hand to his last set card, the roars of Uraby and Megazowler ringing through the forest as they continued their charge toward him and his lifepoints. "I activate Shattering arrow" he paused, hearing Rex's reaction of surprise and terror.

"No!" Rex called out, Eyes widening as the remainder of his hand dropped onto the interface.

"Yes, Rex this spell destroys each of your face up spell cards and does 500 damage per card… and since you have three that's a further 1500 damage!" he called as the life point counter let out a ringing sound, the number reducing to zero before each of the lights turned off, leaving the duellists in the dusk. "Well Played" Delta said, gathering up his deck before circling the arena to Rex.

"Y-you beat me so easily…" rex spoke in shock, looking at Delta "You only used one monster…"

"Four technically" Delta responded, gesturing to his deck "Sometimes the best way to win a duel isn't through a head on assault… it can be better to have multiple win conditions Rex"

Rex growled, shaking his head "No, if I had of Got my Red-Eyes onto the field I would have beat you!" he groaned to himself, handing over his star chip.

"If you had of summoned Red-Eyes maybe it would have been Sakuretsu armor, or maybe I would have used something more like Magic cylinder… the point is your tactics were predictable and easily countered, That's the issue with a lot of beat stick decks."

"Whatever, Next time I won't lose!" Rex recoiled, turning on his heel before picking up his bag and walking off back into the forest.

"Not what I had expected but… it was fun all the same" Delta thought to himself, continuing on his journey toward the shoreline although he couldn't help but let out a yawn… it was getting late…
