OMG it's been 6 months since I last updated I'm so sorry guys, but now I'm back and ready continue this story. Now first I want to thank all of you for your support especially those who tried to help with my Carpal Tunnel Syndrome it means a lot guys and on that note it gives me great pleasure to tell you guys that I am getting a lot better so I should be able to type more. Now as for this chapter truthfully it was a nightmare to finish and I'm not really that proud of it but it had to be done. Before you can ready it thought I wanted to give you all a laugh to make up for my absence. So I went to a Yu-gi-oh tournament this last Saturday and one of my buddies was playing against a Exodia Deck got beat by it and get this he was playing a dragon deck at the time and had a blue eyes white dragon out and I knew I had to make a episode 1 reference which I did and everyone at the table lost it and I ended up making even more references and what mad it even better was that it happened again with my friend having 2 blue eyes and a Blue Eyes Ultimate out. So that was fun now I'm done and you can enjoy the chapter.

Castle of Desire

Jack grunted as the teleportation ended and he found himself on solid ground again. He opened his eyes to see that Red Dragon Archfiend and him were in a large stone courtyard. Confused Jack started to look around and when he turned around he found that this wasn't just a courtyard it was a castle's courtyard. The castle that the courtyard was connected to was large and had two short towers on either side. The front of the castle had a large steel door, but no one seemed to be guarding it.

Jack raised an eyebrow before he and Red Dragon Archfiend made their way towards the door. Jack checked the door for anything unusual before knocking on it. The door creaked open and the duo made their way inside. Adorning the walls of the castle were many different banners, while the floor was had a red rug in the center that seemed to go on forever. The only thing missing from this castle was the people and so far they had seen none.

Jack getting fed up with the large amount of silence that they had encountered since arriving decided to end that silence. "Where the heck is everybody!?"

"I don't know Jack I've never seen a castle in this nice of shape yet completely abandoned." Red Dragon Archfiend answered despite the question not being directed towards him.

"Well this makes no sense! We were sent here to be tested, but it doesn't look like there's anyone here to test us!"

"Perhaps we should check the throne room? If the person we are looking for is here, then that is probably where they are."

"That's a good place to start let's go."

The duo made their way down the corridors checking in each room just in case before finally reaching the throne room. The doors to the throne room were dark red and had each of them had a knocker. Jack knocked on the door, but received no answer. Deciding to make a dramatic entrance he Spartan kicked the doors open. The doors opened to reveal a long room with a red carpet going down the middle. On the far side of the room stood three thrones, but only one was occupied. The person occupying the throne was a man with long sliver white hair wearing a red waistcoat along with long red dress pants, and two white dress shoes.

Jack raised his eye at the getup, but just assumed this was normal clothing around here. He walked down the rug before stopping in front of the man who hadn't said a thing the entire time.

"How may I help you my friend?" The man asked.

"Well you can help me by telling me what this test I'm supposed to take is." Jack told him.

"Test?" The man asked confused before suddenly having an expression of remembrance, "Oh yes now I remember!"

"So let's do this then." Jack said impatiently as he activated his duel disk.

"Let's not be too hasty my friend. Don't you want to see the princess first?" The man asked.

"What princess?" Jack asked raising his eyebrow.

"Well this is a castle isn't it? And what's a castle without a princess?" The man replied sarcastically.

"Fine then show me this princess." Jack said impatiently as put away his Dueldisk. The man rose from his throne gracefully before making his way out of the room with Jack and Red Dragon Archfiend following him.

As they walked a thought popped into Jack's head, "So if this castle has princess then you must be the king right?"

The man sharply dressed man stopped before turning to face Jack. "You are correct. Allow me to introduce myself I am King Maximillian Pegasus." He said as he bowed to Jack.

"I guess it's nice to meet you King Maximillian." Jack said politely surprisingly.

"Oh just call me Pegasus please. What might your name be?" Pegasus asked.

"I'm Jack Atlas the king of turbo dueling and my dragon friend is Red Dragon Archfiend." Jack answered proudly. Pegasus chuckled at this statement causing Jack to frown, "What's so funny?"

"Oh I'm sorry I wasn't laughing at you; I was just thinking about how you remind me of someone I know." Pegasus explained.

"Oh really?" Jack asked.

"Yes very much so, but you have better manners than he did." Pegasus said.

Jack was going to ask who this person was, but he was stopped by them arriving at a door which he assumed was to the princess's room. He watched as Pegasus stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Yes?" A melodic voice replied.

"It is Pegasus dear may we come in?"

"We? Who is with you?"

"A King from a foreign land." Pegasus answered.

"Oh then yes please come in." The princess said. Pegasus turned the knob and opened the door and gestured for Jack to enter. Since the room would be to small Jack told Red Dragon Archfiend to wait outside.

What Jack saw when he entered the room made his heart skip a few beats and his face turn bright red. There in front of him was Carly, but then again it wasn't Carly because she was still at the hospital in New Domino City. The Carly in front of him was so like his Carly, but she was dressed in a way he had only dreamed of. She wore no glasses, but had some black eye shadow on. She wore a black and sky blue corset along with purple t-strap heals. She wore black fingerless gloves that went up to her elbow and her lips were coved in a sparkly sky blue color. Her hair was long and perfectly combed and on top of her head was an intricate designed tiara incrusted with sapphires.

"Hello your highness I am Princess Carly." She bowed.

Jack's mouth went dry and he wanted to speak, but he just couldn't he was to stunned by Princess Carly's appearance.

"Is something the matter?" Princess Carly asked seeing he wasn't responding.

"I believe King Jack is just entranced by your appearance my dear." Pegasus offered and Jack's face flushed even redder.

"Oh umm if that is true thank you King Jack." Carly stuttered blushing.

Jack finally found his voice, "Uh you're welcome I guess." He said stupidly and Princess Carly giggled.

"Well I believe I promised you a duel after I showed you the princess didn't I?" Pegasus said and Jack nodded.

"Oh you two will be dueling how exciting!" Princess Carly exclaimed.

"Let's make our way to where we will be dueling then." Pegasus said as he began to walk out of the room followed by Jack and Princess Carly. When they exited the room Carly was frightened at seeing Red Dragon Archfiend, but after Jack explained he was his friend she calmed down. The group walked through the castle before coming to a stairwell that would lead to the top of the castle. "Carly please make your way to the viewing tower." She nodded and gave Jack a wink before walking away.

Jack and Pegasus made their way up the stairs before they came to the top. When they walked out the door at the top Jack saw that they were on the top of the castle. Without any words the two combatants made their way to the turrets on either side.

"Are you ready for your test?" Pegasus asked as he pulled out his Dueldisk that was like a duel academy duel disk, but silver and red instead of the normal colors.

"I'm ready for anything you try to throw at me! I'm not called the king of turbo dueling for nothing" Jack replied confidently.

"This test cannot simply be completed with your dueling skills it requires something else as well." Pegasus chuckled.

"And what might that something be?"

"I believe you already know." Pegasus said motioning to the tower behind himself.

Jack looked at the tower and saw Princess Carly in the tower's window waving at him. Wondering what she had to do with the test Jack thought back to his promise to tell Carly how he felt about her.

"What do my feelings for her have to do with this!?" Jack yelled.

"Everything my dear boy. You may claim to only have only come on this quest to save your friend and to avenge your defeat at the hands of a rival, but I can see in your eyes that she is also part of your reason to come." Pegasus explained.

"That still doesn't explain why she is part of my test."

"All will be explained in time Jackie boy."

"Don't call me that! I'm not a little boy I am a man!"

"You sound like a boy to me. Now I think that's enough chatter let's begin."

"Fine I'll beat the answer out of you then."

"Let's duel!" They both shouted as their duel disks activated."

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 4000LP

"I'll start things off." Pegasus said drawling his card, "I play a monster facedown and set two cards face down. Your move."

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 4000LP

"My move. I draw then I'll summon Twin Sword Marauder." On Jack's field appear a large masked man with two large swords.

Twin Sword Marauder 1600/1000 Warrior Type Level 4

"Now Twin Sword Marauder attack his facedown monster! Twin Sword Slash!" Jack's monster attacked the facedown monster slashing down with its giant sword expecting it to shatter. However, the facedown card flipped up showing a little green alligator with an axe. The alligator's axe blocked the giant sword causing Twin Sword Marauder to retreat.

"Oh sorry about that Jackie boy my, but my Toon Alligator is too cute to die by your brute." Pegasus chuckled.

"I said not to call me Jackie boy! Anyway I will throw one card facedown and end my turn."

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 4000LP

"My turn now." Pegasus said drawing his card, when he saw what it was he cooed in glee, "It's time we brightened this duel up. Tell me Jackie boy did you ever watch cartoons?"

Jack raised his eye at the question, "No not really why?

"Well allow me to show you what you missed. I now play Toon Kingdom!" Pegasus explained as the castle they were on began to morph into a cartoon castle. "With this card I can now summon my beautiful toons at the small cost of banishing the top 3 cards of my deck. Then I tribute my Toon Alligator to summon my Toon Summoned Skull!" On Pegasus's field appeared a toon version of the mighty Summoned Skull however it lacked legs and it only had a long back coming out of the ground.

At seeing a monster similar to Summoned Skull, Jack shuttered remembering what happened the last time he'd seen it.

Toon Summoned Skull 2500/1200 Fiend Level 6

"Luckily for you my Toon Summoned Skull can't attack the turn it is summoned, but don't worry he'll be able to play with you next time."

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 4000LP

"It will take more than a cartoon ghoul to defeat me. I draw then I summon Clock Resonator." On Jack's field appeared a robed fiend like creature with a tuning fork and a clock symbol on its robes. "Now I tune my level 3 Clock Resonator with my level 4 Twin Sword Marauder", Clock Resonator turned into 3 stars that expanded into rings that surrounded Twin Sword Marauder before a blinding light shot through them, "I synchro summon Chaos King Archfiend!" On Jack's field appeared a skinny demonic figure with two fiery wings and maroon colored smoky hair.

Chaos King Archfiend 2600/2600 Fiend Level 7

Jack was glad that Kaz had allowed him to use the monster during his duel tour. Now he could gain an advantage in this duel.

"Now Chaos King Archfiend attack! Chaos Fire Slash!"

Chaos King Archfiend's arm became engulfed in flames before it lunged forward at Toon Summoned Skull ready to slash it to pieces.

"Oh my I'm about to take 100 points of damage, oh what shall I do!?" Pegasus said dramatically.

"It's not just 100 points of damage you're going to be taking Pegasus!" Jack told him.

"What do you mean?" Pegasus asked confused.

"My monster has a special ability that allows me to switch the attack and defense of all the monsters on my opponent's side of the field for the remainder of the battle phase."

"What!?"

Toon Summoned Skull 1200/2500 Fiend Level 6

Pegasus watched in horror as he watched his monster be slashed by Jack's demon causing an explosion.

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 2600LP

"Looks like your monster wasn't as powerful as you thought." Jack laughed. Then the smoke from the explosion cleared and there stood Toon Summoned Skull good as new. "But how!?"

"That would be thanks to my Toon Kingdom. You see when one of my toons would be destroyed I can prevent their destruction by banishing the top card of my deck." Pegasus explained.

Jack scowled, "Fine then I end my turn."

Jack 4000LP – Pegasus 2600LP

Pegasus calmly drew his card, however once he saw what it was he began to laugh a little to happily which weirded Jack out. "It seems you get the privilege of meeting one of my favorite as well as one of my cutest monsters. First I play my spell card Cost Down which allows me to lower the levels of all the monsters in my hand by 2 by discarding one card from my hand. Then I sacrifice my Toon Summoned Skull to summon the amazing, the terrifying, the oh so adorable BLUE EYES TOON DRAGON!" Toon Summoned Skull disappeared into Toon Kingdom, then Toon Kingdom's book closed before it opened again and shot out a white light onto Pegasus's field. From the white light appeared a small light blue colored dragon with spirally dark blue eyes.

Blue eyes Toon Dragon 3000/2500 Dragon Level 8

"Isn't he something?" Pegasus cooed.

"He's something alright." Jack muttered slightly creeped out.

"Any who now I play my facedown card Toon Attack. With this card my toon monster can attack the turn it's summoned, however it can't attack directly. Then I play my other facedown Shadow Toon. With this card I can choose one monster you control and inflict damage to you equal to its attack." From out of Toon Kingdom a small black ghost appeared that flew into Chaos King Archfiend. Chaos King Archfiend then turned around and slashed Jack with its claws.

Jack 1400LP – Pegasus 2600LP

"Now Blue Eyes Toon Dragon attack. Go Toon White Lightning!" Blue eyes Toon Dragon sucked in air inflating its body before it sent a white blast of energy at Chaos King Archfiend. Jack's monster yelled in agony as it was hit by the blast before exploding.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 2600LP

"With that I'll end my turn."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 2600LP

I can't believe it. One minute I had a big advantage over him and the next he knocks me down to 1000LP. If this keeps up, I'll never see Yusei or Carly again. It's time to kick this duel into high gear Jack thought to himself as he drew his card. He looked at his hand as he began to devise a strategy. Once he had one he smiled before continuing his turn. "That was a pretty good move, but mine will be better."

"Then show me Jackie boy."

"Very well I shall. Because you control a monster and I don't I can special summon my Vice Dragon from my hand, then I'll summon my Flare Resonator." On Jack's field appeared a purple dragon with green wings and a creature similar to Clock Resonator, but this one had red robes and its back was covered in fire. "Now I tune them together for a level 8 monster." Flare Resonator turned into 3 stars that expanded into 3 rings that surrounded Vice Dragon, then a blinding light shot through the rings. "I synchro summon Red Dragon Archfiend," When the light faded both of the monsters were gone and in their place was Red Dragon Archfiend.

Red Dragon Archfiend 3000/2000 Dragon Level 8

"Yes! Now I can dish out some damage!" Red Dragon Archfiend chuckled.

"And thanks to Flare Resonator he gains 300 more attack points."

Red Dragon Archfiend 3300/2000 Dragon Level 8

"Now attack his cartoon dragon with Absolute Power Force!" Red Dragon Archfiend shot forward with a fiery claw before smashing it into Blue Eyes Toon Dragon. However, Pegasus chose once again to save his monster by banishing the top card of his deck.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 2300LP

"With that I'll end my turn with a face down. Your move."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 2300LP

"I thought you were going to do better than me Jackie boy? From what I've just seen you only did a fraction of the damage I did to you last turn. It seems like I'll have to show the king what a real turn looks like." Pegasus said as he drew his card. "First I'll play my Pot of Greed which allows me to draw 2 more cards." Pegasus drew his two cards then looked at them for a few moments, "Then I'll pay 500 life points so my Blue Eyes Toon Dragon can attack you directly."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 1800LP

"It seems you won't be able to see your girl again King Atlas, but look on the bright side you still can be with her here. Now Blue Eyes Toon Dragon attack him with Toon White Lighting and end this duel!" Blue Eyes Toon Dragon let loose a powerful beam of light that shot around Red Dragon Archfiend and went straight for Jack.

"As pretty as the Carly in this world is I prefer the one in my world and I intend to tell her that. Which means I won't be losing this duel! I play my trap card Spirit Barrier which prevents me from taking damage while I have a monster on my field, so you just wasted your attack." Jack countered crossing his arms.

"Impressive, but you can't hide behind your barrier forever. I'll end my turn with a facedown." Pegasus told him as he ended his turn.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 1800LP

"I draw and then I summon Chain Resonator to the field." On Jack's field appeared a figure just like flare and clock resonator, but this one wore black robes and had black chains in its back. "Then thanks to its effect because I have a synchro monster on my field when it is summoned I can summon another resonator monster to my field from my deck and I choose my Creation Resonator." Next to Chain Resonator appeared a creature similar to itself however this one had a blue fan and wings sticking out of its back in place of chains. "Now I tune my Red Dragon Archfiend with my two Resonator's for a level 12 synchro monster!" The two resonator monsters turned into stars that turned into 4 rings which surrounded

Red Dragon Archfiend. Then there was a flash of blinding light, "I now summon my Red Nova Dragon!" When it faded where the three monsters had been now stood a dragon that was like Red Dragon Archfiend but larger and it had one big red horn going backward.

Red Nova Dragon 3500/3000 Dragon Level 12

"My Red Nova also gains 500 attack points for each tuner in my graveyard and I count 4." Jack said as he held 4 fingers up.

"Wait a minute that's an extra 2000 attack points." Pegasus gasped.

Red Nova Dragon 5500/3000 Dragon Level 12

"That's right and all of those attack points are headed straight for you Pegasus! Red Nova Dragon end this duel with Blazing Soul Strike!" Red Nova Dragon roared before its claw burst into flames and slashed at Blue Eyes Toon Dragon who began to freak out.

"Time for you to finally go bye bye little dragon!"

"Not so fast Jackie boy. I play my face down Poison of the Old Man to gain 1200 extra life points as well as banish another card from the top of my deck." Pegasus countered as Red Nova's claw made contact.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 3000LP

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500LP

"Lucky play." Jack growled as Pegasus smiled. "I end my turn with a facedown."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500 LP

"I draw. Then I'll switch my Blue Eyes Toon Dragon to defense mode. Then I'll summon my Dark Eyes Illusionist. With that I'll end my turn." On Pegasus's field appear a strange creature that looked at little like a multi-colored clown, but in place of its head was a large golden eye.

Dark Eyes Illusionist 0000/1400 Spellcaster Level 2

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500 LP

What the hell is that monster? Jack thought to himself, "I draw then I'll attack your Dark Eyes Illusionist. Go Blazing Soul Strike!" Red Nova made to attack Pegasus's monster but before it could Dark Eyes Illusionist's head/eye began to rotate and flash stopping him in its tracks. "What's going on!?"

"Oh I see you've discovered my monster's ability. You see any monster that attacks Dark Eyes Illusionist is immediately paralyzed and cannot attack." Pegasus explained.

"Grr. I end my turn with a face down." Jack said.

"I can't feel my face."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500LP

"My move then.", Pegasus smiled as he drew his card, "Now I play my Black Illusion Ritual." On Pegasus's field appeared a strange golden lamp.

"Ritual?" Jack asked as he had only encountered a few ritual cards.

"Yes and with it I'm about to turn this duel around. First I use my Dark Eyes Illusionist as a tribute for my ritual." Jack watched as Pegasus's monster turned into a dark purple light that flew into the lamp which began to glow with energy. "To summon Relinquished!" Out of the lamp shot a dark purple light that to the shape of a creature similar to Dark Eyes Illusionist, but much larger and with wings and a while open belly.

Relinquished 0000/0000 Spellcaster Level 1

Why would he summon another monster with zero attack points? This one must have an effect like the last one. Jack thought to himself.

"Now after a journey like that my Relinquished is quite hungry. Now what should I get him to eat? Oh your Red Nova Dragon should fill him up quite nicely."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Well I'll show you. Now Relinquished consume his Red Nova Dragon!" Relinquished locked its eye on Red Nova before its belly began to emit a vortex that drew Red Nova Dragon in. Jack watched in horror as Red Nova was swallowed whole. Then Relinquished closed its wing on its body and Red Nova's body was shown coming out of Relinquish.

Relinquished 3500/3000 Spellcaster Level 1

"Are you ok Red Nova?" Jack asked.

"Let's see I was just eaten alive after being paralyzed and now I'm a part of a disgusting monster. I'm gonna go with NO!"

"Now I change my Blue Eyes Toon Dragon to attack mode. Then I'll have Relinquished attack you directly Jackie boy! This duel is over." Relinquished aimed its eye at Jack before firing a red beam.

"Not so fast Pegasus! I play my Battle Fader to end the battel phase thereby stopping your attack." Jack countered. On Jack's field suddenly appeared a fiend like creature that was shaped like a form of symbol/clock. It flew in front of the red beam and began to swing its pendulum stopping the attack in its tracks.

"Impressive." Pegasus said, "I end my turn with a facedown."

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500LP

I may have more life points then him right now, but I don't have any advantage what so ever. Please Crimson Dragon give me some sort of strength. As if to show that the deity had heard Jack saw his mark flash briefly. Alright then don't let me down he thought to himself as he drew his card revealing a card he hadn't seen in many years.

"You may have taken my Red Nova Dragon, but he's not my only powerful monster and I'll show you what I mean by that right now. First I play my trap Descending Lost Star. With this card I bring back my Red Dragon Archfiend from my graveyard, but his level goes down by one so welcome back buddy." On Jack's field reappeared Red Dragon Archfiend, but in its defensive position. "Then I summon my Majestic Dragon." Next to Red Dragon Archfiend appeared a small pink dragon that only had a head and wings. "I then play my spell card Star Changer to return my Red Dragon Archfiend's level to eight. Now I tune my level 8 Red Dragon Archfiend and my level 1 Battle Fader with my Level 1 Majestic Dragon for a Level 10 Synchro summon!"

Unlike all the previous synchro summons this one was different. In this one Majestic Dragon grew to an enormous size dwarfing the other two monsters before becoming transparent, then it surrounded its fellow monsters before a blinding light shot through all of them. "I synchro summon Majestic Red Dragon!" On Jack's field appeared a large red dragon with 4 wings and a long tail.

Majestic Red Dragon 4000/3000 Dragon Level 10

"It's time to end this duel! First I use my Dragon's effect to negate your Relinquished's effects so it's attack points return to zero." Majestic Red Dragon shot a ray at Relinquished returning its attack and defense points to zero. "Now attack his Relinquished! Go Ultimate Power force!" Majestic Red Dragon began to glow a burning red before it shot at Pegasus's monster.

"I'm not out of this duel just yet! I play my face down Enchanted Javelin. With this card I gain life points equal to your dragon's attack points." Pegasus countered.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 4500

"It doesn't change the fact that you're going to lose your monster." Jack said a Majestic Red Dragon slammed into Relinquished causing it to explode.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500LP

"Then I will end my turn." Jack said. The Majestic Red Dragon disappeared and was replaced with Red Dragon Archfiend.

"What just happened?" Pegasus asked confused.

"You see my Majestic Red Dragon only lasts for one turn, but when is disappears I get my Red Dragon Archfiend back good as new." Jack explained.

Jack 1000LP – Pegasus 500LP

Pegasus looked at his hand as he drew his card. I have one last way to turn this duel around, "No matter what happens Jack Atlas know that this was one of the best duels I've had in a long time."

"Me to Pegasus." Jack nodded.

"It's time to end this duel. First I play my card of Sanctity with this card we both draw until we're both holding six cards in our hands. Then I play my spell card Mimicat! With this card I can take one card in your graveyard and use it for myself and I think I'll choose your Chain Resonator!" From Pegasus's card appeared a cartoon black cat that went into Jack's graveyard before reappearing with a Chain Resonator who appeared on Pegasus's field. "Next I'll play Monster Reborn to bring back Relinquished." He continued as Relinquished reappeared on his field, "Finally I play Polymerization to fuse my Relinquished with Chain Resonator!" A vortex appeared between the two monsters drawing both of them into it before there was a blinding light and a figure appeared. "Come forth Forswear the String Puller!" The figure was shown to be have a body like Relinquished's but now it was dark purple colored, it had four evil red eyes and instead of having its arms end claws Forswear had long tentacle like strings extending from the end of its arms. It also had wings on its back but unlike Relinquished's it had not bony decaying red wings.

Forswear the String Puller 0000/0000 Spellcaster/Tuner Level 2

"You have a tuner?" Jack gasped in shock.

"It seems I do. Now I think it's time I tried a synchro summon. Now I tune my Level 8 Blue Eyes Toon Dragon with my Level 2 Forswear for a level 10 synchro summon!" Forswear turned into 2 purple stars that morphed into similar rings that surrounded Blue Eyes Toon Dragon before a blinding purple light shot through them. "I synchro summon Spellbinding Dragon!" When the light faded where the two monsters were now stood a large maroon colored dragon with dark purple wings and a long tail that split in two at the end into a pair of whip like tails.

Spellbinding Dragon 3200/2000 Dragon Level 10

"A fusion tuner and a synchro summon using it?" Jack asked himself.

"Now I play one of my monster's abilities. Once per turn I can choose one monster from your graveyard and equip it to my Spellbinding Dragon and I think I'll choose your Red Nova Dragon again!"

Jack watched as Spellbinding Dragon's twin tails shot into his graveyard and pulled out his Red Nova Dragon. His monster was pulled over to Pegasus's side of the field before the twin tails injected themselves into his monsters hide just below its neck causing it to roar in pain.

Spellbinding Dragon 6700/5000 Dragon Level 10

"As you can see my monster also gains attack points equal to the monster that's equipped to it. Now think it's time we really end this duel. Spellbinding Dragon destroy his Red Dragon Archfiend! Mesmeric Destruction!" Spellbinding Dragon's body began to glow a neon purple before it reared its head back then it let loose a devastating dark and light purple blast at Jack's monster.

I still have one last card that can save me. "I play my Red Cocoon trap card. It may not destroy your monster or save my own, but it does negate your monster's effects till the end of the damage step so your monster's attack points return to 3200", Jack yelled as the purple blast slammed into Red Dragon Archfiend causing a blinding explosion to occur.

Jack 800LP – Pegasus 500LP

"You may have saved yourself this turn, but next turn you won't be so lucky. I play one card face down and end my turn." Pegasus said from the other side of the smoke caused by the explosion.

Jack 800LP – Pegasus 500LP

On the other side of the explosion Jack wasn't doing so good. He may have survived the attack, but his spirits were low.

What can I do? He has me backed into a corner and I have nothing to defeat his monster. Red Nova even if he wasn't being controlled by that dragon of his wouldn't be any help because I don't have enough tuners in my graveyard. I could bring back Red Dragon Archfiend with Red Cocoon, but that only gives me one more turn and there's no telling when he'll get another monster. Jack sighed, I guess he was right I'll never see my Carly again and I'll never get to see Yusei again either and tell him how sorry I am for not keeping in touch with him all these years.

"Is this really one of my prized signers? Wallowing in his own self-doubt and preparing to give up? I expected more from you Jack Atlas!" A voice boomed in his head.

"Who's there?" Jack asked looking around and seeing no one.

"It is me Jack." The voice said showing who it belonged to.

"The Crimson Dragon." Jack gasped.

"Yes it has been awhile." The Crimson Dragon replied, "But that is no important right now. What is important is that you win this duel."

"But how? I've played all my best moves and all my best cards have either been destroyed or are controlled by my opponent!" Jack argued.

"When has that ever stopped you before? You have been in just as bad situations and you didn't give up then, so why should you now?"

Jack stopped at those words. The Crimson Dragon was right he had never given up before when he was in a tight spot even when the odds were stacked heavily against him. Even when he almost died while facing Aporia he didn't give up. "You're right I can't give up! If I give up I won't be able to save Yusei and I'll never be able to tell Carly how I truly feel."

"Good to see you haven't lost your spirit Jack. Now go forth and finish this duel that you may save your fellow signer Yusei Fudo." The Crimson Dragon told him before disappearing.

As the smoke cleared Pegasus was finally able to see Jack, but what he saw was not what he was expecting. He expected to see a broken man, but instead he saw a man filled with determination. "But how? How can you still be so full of spirit and determination?"

"As long as I have something to fight for I will never give up!" Jack told him, "Now before I start my turn I play my Red Cocoons effect to bring back my Red Dragon Archfiend." Then Jack drew his card, however the card he drew was not one he had had before. This must be from the Crimson Dragon, "Now I play the spell card Tuner Fusion! With this card I can fuse together 2 or more tuner monsters on my field, in my hand or in my graveyard and I choose to fuse the Clock Resonator in my graveyard with the Dark Resonator in my hand!" The two resonators appeared on Jack's field before swirling around each other and when they stopped a new monster was where they were. "Say hello two Chaos Resonator!" On Jack's field now stood a creature like Clock and Dark Resonator, but this one was larger and wore black and white robes as well as holding two tuning forks.

Chaos Resonator 1500/500 Fiend/Tuner Level 4

"You made a tuner fusion as well?" Pegasus gasped.

"You bet I did now I activate his effect which allows me to destroy your face down!" Jack said as Pegasus's facedown shattered causing him to shield his eyes. "Then I tune my Chaos Resonator with Red Dragon Archfiend!" Chaos Resonator changed into 4 purple stars that expanded into rings before surrounding Red Dragon Archfiend. Then a purple light shot through the rings and Red Dragon Archfiend. "I synchro summon Ruby Sun Dragon!" When the light faded where the two creatures had been now stood a large red dragon. It was like Red Nova Dragon, but now it had four wings instead of two it also had two scythe like spikes coming out of its wrists finally its center jewel was a ruby instead of a diamond.

Ruby Sun Dragon 3800/3000 Dragon Level 12

Pegasus laughed at seeing the dragons attack points, "My Spellbinding Dragon has 6700 attack points your dragon's 3800 attack points in woefully inadequate to handle my monster."

"Then it's a good thing he has an effect." Jack said stopping Pegasus's laughing to spot cold, "You see first he gains 500 attack points for each tuner in our graveyards, so since there are a total of eight tuners in our graveyard my monster gains 4000 attack points."

"7800 attack points!?" Pegasus exclaimed.

"Yep and on top of that he is unaffected by spells and traps that would destroy him."

Ruby Sun Dragon 7800/3000 Drago Level 12

"Now Ruby Sun Dragon attack Spellbinding Dragon with Supernova Slash!"

"It's payback time!", Ruby Sun Dragon roared as he flashed his scythe like spikes before rushing at Spellbinding Dragon. First it slashed off its tails freeing Red Nova Dragon, then with its other arms it slashed its foe's head.

"Noooo!" Pegasus yelled he was blown backwards.

Jack 800LP – Pegasus 0000LP

"I win." Jack said as the holograms disappeared and Red Dragon Archfiend returned to normal.

"It would seem that you have passed your test both in winning this duel and gaining the power you seek." Pegasus said standing up.

Jack nodded, "Yes you had me beat until I was able to gain my confidence back and summon Ruby Sun Dragon."

"Quite so. Well I guess this is the end of our time together King Atlas." Pegasus said extending his hand.

Jack went to shake his hand before he was interrupted by a yell, "WAIT!" Both of them turned to see Princess Carly running towards them. "Don't leave! You can still stay here with me!"

Jack admitted the offer was tempting, but he had already made his choice, "I'm sorry, but I can't. It's not you it's me." He told her, but she tilted her head in confusion, "You see I have my own Carly to get back to and I promised I would return to her and tell her my feelings."

Princess Carly looked shattered as tears began to flow down her cheeks, "I-I understand."

"Don't worry Princess I'm certain you will find your prince one day." Jack told her as Pegasus came up behind her and put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her. She nodded her thanks. "Well it's time I went to meet my friends." He held out his hand and shook both of theirs. Then in a flash of light both he and Red Dragon Archfiend disappeared.

So how was it not to bad I hope. I hope you guys at least enjoyed it since I put a lot of work into it. Truthfully it was a pain to type especially with Pegasus being who Jack was dueling since they didn't really have any similarities, but the reason I used him was because he lost Cecilia and didn't get to spend as much time with her as he wanted to so I felt that since Jack has put off telling Carly his feelings that Pegasus should be the one to duel him. It's kind of like the saying "It's better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all". Now to made up for this chapter I have a little sneak peak once I finally stop talking. Please leave a review and who else is going to Dark Side of Dimensions? Also I'm going to let you guys decide who will duel after this next pair. Luna vs Jesse or Leo vs Syrus? Leave your vote in the description as well as any ideas you guys have on how I should have some of other duelists create fusion tuners since some of them don't have cards that take control of monsters. And one last thing I would like to know if you guys think I should lengthen the duels out a little bit more and keep them like they are or not. Ok I'm done talking now see you next time and enjoy this little preview.

New Domino City

In a random alley in New Domino City a purple portal opened and two cloaked figures walked out of it. One wore a rugged tan cloak while the other one wore a black cloak with red outlines. "Are you prepared to fulfil our mission? There can be no failures." The black cloaked figure asked his companion.

"I know and I will not fail like those before us." His companion growled back.

"Then let us be swift." The black cloaked figure said as they made their way out of the alley and towards their destination. They soon reached a large white building with a large red H on it. Before they could make their way inside however they were stopped by a yell.

"Stop right there!"

The two figures stopped and looked in the direction from where the voice had come from. To their left was a man in his early twenties wearing a dark green jacket and a white helmet with a green stipe running down the middle of it. "Can we help you officer?"

"Yes you can. I've been warned to be on the lookout for suspicious cloaked figures and since neither of you look like you need to go to the hospital I'm afraid I'll have as you two to come with me for questioning." The sector security officer told them.

"And if we refuse?" The black cloaked figure asked.

"Then I will have to bring you two in by force." The officer told them as he drew his Dueldisk and handcuffs.

"Very well then if you win we will come with you peacefully." The black cloaked figure replied drawing his Dueldisk which was shaped like a dragon's wing, but colored black.

"Fine then."

"Let's duel!"

Security Officer 4000LP- Black Cloaked Figure 4000LP

"I'll go first since I'm the challenger." The cloaked figure said drawing his card. "I summon Red-Eyes Black Chick." On his field appeared a baby Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

"I didn't know this was kindergarten. What's next are you going to summon a can of baby food?" The Security officer mocked.

"No first I'm going to tribute him to summon his juvenile form the Red-Eyes Black Dragon!" Red-Eyes Black Chick glowed red before growing into its older form.

Red-Eyes Black Dragon 2400/2000 Dragon Level 7

"Then I'll end my turn with two facedown cards." He continued as he ended his turn.

Security Officer 4000LP- Black Cloaked Figure 4000LP

"You may have summoned a powerful monster, but that doesn't mean I'm still not going to beat you." The Security Officer said as he drew his card. "First I summon my XX-Saber Boggart Knight." On his field appeared a beastly warrior clad in armor wearing a red cape. "Then I use his effect to summon another X-Saber monster from my hand and I choose X-Saber Palomuro." Next to Boggart Knight appeared a bipedal green lizard holding a staff with a sharp end. "Now I tune them together to synchro summon X-Saber Wayne!" Palomuro turned into a star orb that expanded into a ring that surrounded Boggart Knight before a light shot through both of them. When it faded where the two monsters had been now stood a man dressed like a cowboy, but wearing blue armor on his arms and legs he also held a pistol with a knife on top of it.

X-Saber Wayne 2100/400 Warrior Level 5

"But I'm not done just yet, because now I use his effect to special summon X-Saber Airbellum from my hand. On his field appeared a creature like a bipedal lion clad in armor and sporting 3 clawed gauntlets. "Then I play my spell card Star Changer which allows me to raise his level by 1. Now I tune my X-Saber Wayne with my X-Saber Airbellum to synchro summon my XX-Saber Gottoms." Airbellum morphed into 4 stars before surrounding Wayne, then a light shot through both of them. When it faded where they had stood now stood a cat like beast clad in silver armor with a green x adorning his chest piece and carrying a large sword.

XX-Saber Gottoms 3100/2600 Beast-Warrior Level 9

"And finally I play the field spell Saber Vault. With this card all my X-Saber monsters gain 100 attack points for each level they have and lose that same amount of defense points." He continued as a large pedestal with a large sword stuck into it appeared behind him.

XX-Saber Gottoms 4000/1700 Beast-Warrior Level 9

"Now XX-Saber Gottoms attack his monster with Ultimate X Slash." He ordered as his monster jumped up ready to slash its opponent to pieces.

"I activate Negate Attack to negate your attack and end the battle phase." The cloaked figure said calmly. XX-Saber Gottoms attack harmlessly bounced off the barrier that surrounded Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

"Grr I end my turn."

Security Officer 4000LP- Black Cloaked Figure 4000LP

"This duel is over." The cloaked figure said as he drew his card.

"What do you mean it's over I have a monster with 4000 attack points while you only have a monster with 2400 attack points. What could you possibly do to defeat me?"

"Instead of telling you I'll show you. First I play my trap card Burst Breath to tribute my Red-Eyes to destroy all cards on your field with defense points less than his attack."

"But my XX-Saber Gottoms defense points went down to 1700 from my Saber Vault meaning it has less than 2400 defense points now." The officer gasped.

"Exactly! Now destroy his monster!" Red-Eyes let loose a torrent of fire destroying Gottoms, but then itself was also covered in flames before turning to dust. "Then I play the spell card Silver's Cry to bring him back!" He said as Red-Eyes reappeared.

"But your monster still has only 2400 attack points how can you bring me down to 0 when I have 4000?"

"I'm not done yet. Now I play Inferno Fire Blast to inflict 2400 points of damage to your life points." Red-Eyes reared its head back before shooting a ball of flames at its opponent sending him skidding backwards.

Security Officer 1600LP- Black Cloaked Figure 4000LP

"Now since my Red-Eyes Black Dragon can't attack this turn I sacrifice him to summon Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon." Red-Eyes roared before being surrounded in a dark mist. When it faded where Red-Eyes was now stood a large black dragon with large red eyes and adorned with rubies.

Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon 2400/2000 Dragon Level 9

"And he also gains 300 attack points for every dragon in my graveyard."

Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon 2700/2000 Dragon Level 9

"Now attack him directly and end this duel. Go Inferno Dark Fire!" Darkness Dragon reared its head back before letting loose a stream of flames at its foe.

Security Officer 0000LP- Black Cloaked Figure 4000LP

"Ahhhh!" The security officer yelled as he was blasted backwards. He looked up to see the cloaked figure walking towards him while holding up a red pendent.

"Now I take your soul!" The figure said. The officer yelled as a misty cloud came out of his mouth and floated into the pendent. The cloaked figure turned to his companion and nodded. With the obstacle removed they made their way into the hospital where their prey awaited them.
