*Lucky 21 Casino Stadium, Las Vegas, Nevada 2:50 PM LST*
Team Rose was getting ready for their duel. Jeremy overheard Derek in the other room talking on the phone.
Derek: Uh-huh... yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... $500 on Team Rose... Of course they're gonna win! It's guaranteed! … Fine, I'll give you my debit card number, it's 6-4-9-9-F*** you!
Derek then hangs up the phone and sees Jeremy standing in the doorway and he gave Derek a disapproving look.
Derek: Don't look at me like that! I didn't take the bet!
Jeremy: I didn't say nothing.
Derek: I don't have a gambling problem! I can stop anytime I want!
Jeremy: I didn't say anything!
Derek: You're damn right you didn't say anything! Now if you'll excuse me, I need a drink!
Derek walked out and headed for the built-in bar in the room... Only in Vegas. Jeremy then Left the Room and found Chris on a laptop looking up the opponent, Team Supreme.
Chris: Hey Jeremy! Guess who's starting for Team supreme! Your Friend Calvin Mitchell!
Jeremy: Calvin! Time for some Payback! I'm going to get him for Cheating!
Chris: Hey, relax...don't go all Colin on me and say "He is Going to Pay for this! Oh that he Will!"
Jeremy: ...Colin NEVER said that.
Chris: I know, but I think he should. I can just hear it coming out of his mouth...now if you'll excuse me, the strip clubs are Calling my Name!
Jeremy: Wait! What about the other duelists on the team? !
Chris: Oh don't worry, there was one other guy who was his back up, Luke something, and that's it.
Chris packed up his laptop and walked out of the room. Jeremy sighed and went to go get ready.
Meanwhile, in the Private Executive Suite Overlooking the Arena, NDC Commissioner Ringford sat on a couch, sipping his wine, while Calvin stood across from him complaining about the duel.
Calvin: This is Bullshit! I should defeat Kennat! I don't want to throw the round! I can beat him!
Ringford: If you could have, you would have done it already! We stick to the plan. If you want to get paid, you'll follow the plan. And if it makes you feel better, you can thrash around Mr. Griffan in the first match up. Just like old times right?
Calvin shushed himself as Raquel Walked in holding a card, Calvin couldn't see the image.
Ringford: Ah Raquel, you're here. That'll be all Calvin, you can leave.
Calvin nodded and left and Raquel gave Ringford the card.
Ringford: This is a Soul card then?
Raquel: Yes, and I must protest. Raza will-
Ringford: -Thank us when we do what he couldn't! Defeat the Rose Guardians. I'll give this to my Selected Duelist.
Raquel: This is a mistake.
Ringford: You need to learn to take some initiative girl! I didn't get to where I am by being afraid of my Superiors and following their rules! Take some action into your own hands damn it.
Raquel was silent, nodded, and disappeared. Ringford then picked up the phone.
Ringford: Yeah it's me...I have it...You will be able to win with this at your disposal.
Meanwhile, Ali was sitting around. She heard Marc and Laura talking about Eloping. Meanwhile Krystal came over, hugged Ali, and Started Crying for seemingly no Reason.
Krystal: T_T *Sniff* Waah...
Ali: ...Uh...Krystal?...Something wrong?
Krystal looked up at Ali with watery eyes.
Krystal: T_T Ooohhh Ali! Tybalt went back home. He didn't even say goodbye! Why is
he Such a JERK? !
Ali: I, uh...don't know...
Marc: Tybalt? Why are you so upset? I hardly noticed the guy.
Laura: Yeah, he wasn't much of a talker.
Krystal: T_T But why would he just leave? ! He shows up out of Nowhere! Gives me the Princess Knight Card, and Leaves! He is Such a Jerk! *sniff* WAAAAAHHHHHH!
She started to cry into Ali's shoulder again making her uncomfortable.
Ali: Umm, Krys, wouldn't you rather want to cry on Laura's shoulder?
Krystal Didn't listen and kept Crying on her shoulder. Ryan was watching and shook his head.
Ryan: Women! Who needs all that Drama?
Skyler: Ryan.
Ryan turned around and saw his brother Skyler standing there.
Ryan: Skyler? What are you doing here?
Skyler: We dueled Team Dark World the other day.
Ryan: How's that Captain of their's doing? I heard he was in a coma?
Skyler: He woke up, but He's still in the Atlantis City Hospital. They're not letting him out so soon.
Ryan: Well that's good to hear. I better get ready. They might want me to duel today.
Ryan turned to leave by Skyler grabbed him by his right wrist.
Skyler: When did you get the Tattoo?
Skyler was referring to the Rose mark on Ryan's Right hand.
Ryan: Just a thing we did. Ya know, Team Rose! We're all one team.
Skyler: Why is blue? Roses are red.
Ryan: ...I like blue!
Ryan took back his hand and walked away as his Brother wondered about it.
Meanwhile, In Atlantis City Hospital, Boris The Captain of Team Dark World laid in his bed watching TV...
Boris: Ctho, chert vozʹmi, ya dolzhen sdelatʹ, chtoby poluchitʹ nekotorye chertovski prodovolʹstvennoĭ zdesʹ? ! YA khochu, chtoby moi Vodka Chert vozʹmi !
...And he wasn't happy.
Zack: Knock Knock Knock Yo!
Zack Rucker suddenly came into his room.
Zack: Yo Bro, up for some Company?
Boris: ...Who are you?
Zack: Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo! I'm Zack Rucker! I saw your last duel against Team Rose.
Boris: What do you want?
Zack: I'm doing an Investigative Piece, I'm hoping your could help.
Boris: I have nothing to say to you.
Zack: I wanted to ask you about Pride Sublimium.
Boris was silent and stared at Zack.
Zack: Now do I have your attention?
Boris: ...What do you want to know?
Back in Lucky 21 Casino Stadium, the team was all ready to go for their duel. They looked over at the duel stage and it looked like a giant boxing ring. Where the video board was another board that showed the odds for the duel for gamblers to bet on. The audience was full and people were close to the ring to get the best view of the duel. A lot of them were dressed up for the occasion like it was a special event.
Colin: Okay, I'm ready to kick some ass!
Jeremy: Colin, you're gonna have to wait, I'm going first.
Colin: But Jeremy, you're dueling Calvin first.
Jeremy: I know.
Colin smiled and just sat in a chair next to Rita.
Colin: All yours, dude.
Jeremy nodded and went up into the ring. He stood in the blue corner while Calvin sat in the red corner.
Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, the following duel contest is scheduled for three rounds! In the blue corner, representing Team Rose, at 177 pounds JEEEREEEMY GRIIIIFAAAAN!
A lot of applause roared as the spotlight hit Jeremy and blinded him a little bit.
Announcer: In the red corner, representing Team Supreme, at approximately 160 pounds, CAALVIIN MIIIITCHEEEEL!
Calvin (LP 4000): Let's get this duel started, loser!
Jeremy (LP 4000): Whenever you're ready, cheater! *draws* First, I'll set this monster face-down in defense mode! Then I'll end my turn by placing two cards face-down!
Calvin: *draws* I summon Goblin Elite Attack Force (Lv.4 2200/1500)! Then I activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy the face-down on your right!
A mystical space vortex came down and destroyed Jeremy's face-down Negate Attack.
Calvin: And now my Goblins will attack!
The attack force charged toward Jeremy's face-down Dharc the Dark Charmer (Lv.3 500/1500) and destroyed him.
Calvin: I'll set one card face-down and end my turn! And because my Goblins attacked, they switch into defense mode!
The Goblin Elite Attack Force became exhausted and fell to their knees.
Jeremy: *draws* I'll set another monster face-down in defense mode and end my turn!
Calvin: *draws* I now summon Giant Orc (Lv.4 2200/0)! And now Giant Orc will attack your face-down monster!
Giant Orc lifted his hammer and bludgeoned Jeremy's Stone Statue of the Aztecs (Lv.4 300/2000), destroying it.
Calvin: Now I'll activate my Trap Final Attack Orders! This forces all monsters on the field into attack mode, even my own!
Both Calvin's Giant Orc and Goblin Elite Attack Force were forced into attack position.
Calvin: And now my Goblins will attack you directly!
The Goblin Elite Attack Force charged at Jeremy and inflicted him with 2200 points of damage.
Calvin: That ends my turn!
Jeremy (LP 1800): *draws* First, I activate Pot of Greed to draw 2 more cards! *draws 2 cards* Now I activate the Spell Card Instant Charm! When I Normal Summon a Charmer this turn, I can activate its her effect without having to flip her face-up! But before I summon her, I should first activate my face-down Trap DNA Transplant! This allows me to change the Attribute of all monsters on the field to any of my choosing and I choose Water! So I now summon Eria the Water Charmer (Lv.3 500/1500)! And now Instant Charm activates, allowing Eria to control your Goblin Elite Attack Force!
Eria waved her staff and the Goblin Elite Attack Forced moved to Jeremy's side of the field as though they were hypnotized.
Jeremy: And now I'll have the Goblin Elite Attack Force attack your Giant Orc!
The Goblin Elite Attack Force charged at Giant Orc, who took out a few of the goblins with his club, but he sustained too much damage and fell to the ground.
Jeremy: And now Eria will attack you directly!
Eria waved her staff and Calvin was shot with a stream of water, inflicting him with 500 points of damage.
Jeremy: Then I'll end my turn with a card face-down!
Calvin (LP 3500): *draws* I activate the Continuous Spell Synergistic Elements! By selecting a monster on my field, I can summon a monster with the same Attribute from my hand, but I can't use that effect to summon another monster with the same attribute.
Jeremy: So? You can only summon Water monsters and that means you can only use that effect once right now!
Calvin: Once is all I need to summon Suijin (Lv.7 2500/2400)! Then I activate the Spell Card Keys of the Gate Guardian! If I have a Sanga of the Thunder, Kazejin or Suijin on my field, I can summon the other two, however they can't attack! Now I'll combine them together to form Gate Guardian! Since I merged them after using the keys, he can't attack this turn!
Sanga of the Thunder, Kazejin and Suijin merged together to form the all-powerful Gate Guardian.
Calvin: Then I'll set one card face-down and end my turn!
Jeremy: *draws* I end my turn!
Calvin: That's it? ! How pathetic! You were always the pathetic one, weren't you? You'll never amount to anything!
Jeremy: Shut up and make your move!
Calvin: Gladly! *draws* Gate Guardian, attack!
Gate Guardian charged up what appeared to be an electrical typhoon attack and fired it at Eria, destroying her, but Jeremy activated a Trap.
Jeremy: I activate the Trap Defense Draw! This negates all damage from this battle and I can draw one card! *draws*
The damage from the attack hit a barrier that appeared to protect Jeremy.
Jeremy: And there's more! Since a Spellcaster was destroyed by one of your cards, I can Special Summon from my hand Avenger Mage (Lv.7 2600/1700)!
A magician wearing a cloak that covered his face and was holding a staff with a magic orb on one end and a spear tip on the other appeared on the field.
Calvin: I'll end my turn!
Jeremy: *draws* I now summon the Tuner Elemental Mage (Lv.1 500/100)! Then I tune her with Avenger Mage to bring forth the creator of magic who taught the art of sorcery to a new generation! I Synchro Summon Mystical Origin Dragon (Lv.8 3200/3000)! Then I'll end my turn with one card face-down!
Calvin: *draws* Hmm… I'll set one card face-down and end my turn!
Jeremy: *draws* I'll place one more card face-down!
Calvin: *draws* I'll set one more card face-down and end my turn!
Jeremy: *draws*I'll set one more card face-down and end my turn!
Colin: Oh, for God's sake, make a move already!
Calvin: *draws* Gate Guardian, attack!
Jeremy: I activate the Trap Maternal Spirits! By equipping this to my Dragon, he gains 200 points for each card of the same type he is! Since he's a Dragon and a Spellcaster, he gains 600 attack points!
Calvin: I thought you would try something like that, so I'll activate Seven Tools of the Bandit! By paying 1000 Life Points, I can negate your Trap!
Gate Guardian successfully destroyed Origin Dragon, inflicting Jeremy with 250 points of damage.
Jeremy (LP 1550): I activate my other Trap Cosmic Blast! Since a Dragon-type Synchro left the field, you take damage equal to his attack points!
Calvin (LP 2500): Not unless I activate another Seven Tools of the Bandit!
Jeremy's second Trap was negated and destroyed.
Calvin (LP 1500): That ends my turn!
Jeremy: *draws* *thinks: Damn it! There's nothing I can do!* Since the Synchro Monster that Elemental Mage was used to summon was sent to the Graveyard, I can add her back to my hand. *adds card to hand* Then I summon Familiar-Possessed Eria (Lv.4 1850/1500) and end my turn.
Calvin: *draws* *thinks: I'm going to put this little bastard away now!* I activate the Field Spell Anti-Magic Field!
A dark circle surrounded both Jeremy and Calvin and it appeared that Eria was getting weaker.
Calvin: Now this Field Spell makes all of your Attack Position Spellcaster-type monsters have their attack powers drop to 0!
Jeremy: That's a new card. Where'd you get it?
Calvin: I got it from a "friend" who doesn't very much like you. A very special, one-of-a-kind card they gave me just for this duel!
Jeremy: Figures!
Calvin: now, Gate Guardian, attack!
Gate Guardian began to charge his electrical typhoon attack.
Jeremy: You really shouldn't have activated that Spell, because I now activate the Trap Spell Reflect! Since you activated a card effect that would effect a Spellcaster specifically and has the effect affect other monsters on either side of the field instead!
Calvin: What? !
Eria was covered in a magical aura that protected her from the Field Spell and then it was Gate Guardian that became weaker. Gate Guardian launched his attack, but Eria easily stopped the attack with her hand. She swung her staff and sent a roaring river at Gate Guardian, destroying him and reducing Calvin's Life Points to 0.
Announcer: And the winner by knockout, JEEEREEEMY GRIIIIIIFFAAAAAN!
The Crowed cheered with the win and Calvin stepped out of the Ring, he passed Luke Golic on his way for his turn.
Luke: You left the trap right?
Calvin: Yeah it's still face down…for "Him". I hate this! I lost to that Loser!
Luke: I don't like it either. But this is the boss's orders.
Luke then Climbed over the Ropes with Authority.
Announcer: Now for Team Supremes 2nd Duelist, weighing in at 297 Pounds, LUKE GOOOOLLLIIIICCCC!
Luke (LP 4000): My move! *draws* First, I'll activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Calvin's Final Attack Orders!
Luke destroyed Calvin's Final Attack Orders using a mystical space vortex.
Luke: Then I'll set this face-down in defense mode and end my turn!
Jeremy (LP 1550): *draws* I summon the Tuner Night's End Sorcerer (Lv.2 1300/400)! Then I'll tune him with Familiar-Possessed Eria to Synchro Summon Explosive Magician (Lv.6 2200/1400)! Then I activate her effect! Since she was Synchro Summoned, she gains a Spell Counter and I can remove all of her Spell Counters to inflict you with 500 points of damage for each one!
Tempest Magician swung her scythe-like scepter and created an air slash attack that hit Luke, inflicting him with 500 points of damage.
Jeremy: Then she'll attack your face-down monster!
Tempest Magician swung her scepter again and sent an air slash at Luke's face-down monster, Giant Soldier of Stone (Lv.3 1300/2000), destroying him.
Jeremy: That ends my turn!
Luke (LP 3500): *draws* I'll set another monster face-down in defense mode and end my turn!
Jeremy: *draws* Since I control a Level 6 Spellcaster, I can Special Summon Xalana the Legendary Apprentice (Lv.5 1900/1800)! Now, I Normal Summon Elemental Mage again! Then I tune Elemental Mage with Xalana to Synchro Summon the Synchro Tuner Mystical Kunoichi (Lv.6 2300/1900)! Then I'll decrease her Level by 2 to increase my Life Points by 200!
Six orange orbs appeared around Mystical Kunoichi and two of them turned into dust, which healed Jeremy's Life Points by 200.
Jeremy (LP 1750): Now I tune Mystical Kunoichi with Tempest Magician to summon a magician who has mastered the magical forces of space itself! I Synchro Summon Galactic Magician (Lv.10 3500/3100)! Then I activate his effect! I can look at the top 5 cards of my Deck and then for each Level 4 or lower Spellcaster revealed, I can remove a monster you control from play!
Jeremy picks up his five cards and reveals 3 Level 4 or lower Spellcasters.
Jeremy: There are three, but I only need one to remove your face-down card from play!
Galactic Magician sent a cosmic ball at Luke's face-down Marshmallon (Lv.3 300/500) and the cosmic ball crushed Marshmallon, removing him from play.
Jeremy: And now Galactic Magician will attack you directly!
Galactic Magician blasted a cosmic wave at Luke, reducing his Life Points to 0.
Announcer: And the winner by knockout, JEEEREEEMY GRIIIIIIFFAAAAAN!
The Roses felt good about the duel as Luke got out of the ring.
Rita: Only one more to go! Jeremy's on Fire.
Colin: Oh darn, I really wanted to duel today.
Rita: Maybe it's better this way. This way you and I will have more energy for later. ;)
Rita winked at Colin and he just chuckled. Meanwhile, up in his Private Suite, Ringford did not seem worried while watching the duel. His Secretary then walked in.
Secretary: Mr. Ringford, the Betting Tables are taking final bets. Would you wish to make one?
Ringford: Hmm…yes $500 THOUSAND ON Team Supreme.
Secretary: But sir, Team rose has 3 duelist left while Supreme has one.
Ringford: I know, but I'm not concerned.
Secretary: Yes sir.
The Secretary left and Ringford watched as Team Supreme's last Duelist made it to the Ring. He was a Man with a Dark Aura, with Sunglasses and teeth as Sharp as Fangs, something too Familiar about him.
Announcer: And Team Supreme's FINAL Duelist, weighing in at 210 pounds, ROTH RAAAAAANNNKSHAAAAAWWW!
Colin & Rita: WHAT? !
Roth turned to Jeremy and Readied his Duel disk. Rita Sat back in total disgust.
Rita: Rankshaw! Unbelievable! Why can't he just go away? !
Colin: Ringford's doing. He really knows how to get to us.
Roth smiled and drew his first 5 cards. His menacing Smirk made Jeremy sick to his stomach.
Roth: Hey their Kiddo, You know who I am?
Jeremy: Yeah, Colin told me all about you, D-bag!
Roth: Oh, how's the Guardian Angel Doing? I'd like a rematch with that little F***er!
Jeremy: HEY! You're Dueling ME now! Make your Move.
Roth (LP 4000): *Draws* I will start with a BIG Move Kid! I will remove all cards in your hand, Deck and Graveyard from play so I can summon Pride Sublimium (Lv.0 4400/5000)!
The Dark Creature Pride Sublimium appeared on Roth's Side of the field with a Dark Aura all around it.
Colin: No way! I ripped that Card to Pieces!
Jeremy: Doesn't Matter! I beat it once and I'll beat it again!
Roth: I now Release Pride Sublimium!
Jeremy: You what? !
Pride Sublimium was Released from the Field and then The Ground cracked open as if the Gates of Hell opened up. Fire Shot up through the Ground as Shadows formed above the cracks. It took the Form of a Dark Skeleton with a Dark Cloak and Horns on its skull like the Devil's. Roth placed a Card with a Golden frame with the creature's Image on it, onto his duel disk.
Roth: BEHOLD THE MIGHTY SKULL KING! This Monster IS DEATH and you CAN NOT ESCAPE HIS STRENGTH!
The Skull King Stood Above all other Cards on the field and looked down upon them as it's Blood red eyes stuck fear into the Hearts of Everyone.
