Alright, I admit that the last chapter was not the most well thought out chapter to date but I was stuck and I asked a friend who is a writer mind you, what I should do and he recommended the songs. But now things are back on track and have been brought to the regular program.

It was another bright and sunny day on Duel Academy isle. Many of the kids were off dueling or in their other classes. It was this day that Slifer Red and Ra Yellow held their annual baseball game to see who had what it takes in sports. Megatron and his gang of Decepticons were watching the team of Reds with Ra Yellow Student Jaden Yuki, though he went by Optimus Prime take on his fellow Yellows.
Optimus was up at bat when his buddy Syrus spoke up.
"Prime! Keep your eye on the ball!" The small bluenette said to the gang leader.
"Gonna be tough Sy but I'll try!" Optimus yelled back.
The boy returned his attention to the field which had three reds on all the bases.
If I hit to center or right field, it'll only allow 1 or 2 of my teammates to get to home…but if I aim for Left of center then maybe all three can get there…that is if they don't change their pitcher. The boy thought when he noticed something that he should've noticed right from the start.
"Hey, where's Bastion? I thought he was here…" Optimus said.
No sooner was the question out of his mouth did a voice cut through the field.
"Hold on! Time out! Sorry, I was busy doing some equations for one of my classes and lost track of time!" Bastion shouted as he came on to the field dress in the gym uniform all of the boys were wearing along with a yellow bandana around his left arm.
"Can you throw?" A Yellow classmate asked.
"Of course." Bastion replied.
Uh-oh, this changes things…Optimus thought worriedly.
"Well, we need a fresh arm."
"Pitcher change! Get in there!"
Bastion ran in and took over the pitcher mound and smirked at Optimus. The boy smirked right back.
"This isn't a written exam Bastion…I hope you know what you're doing…" Optimus stated with a smirk.
"Trust me I've done all the math on this. So get ready for some heat Prime…cuz this is coming in red hot." Bastion stated as he did the wind up.
Optimus didn't say a thing, only got ready to swing.
"Here's something with a little bite!" Bastion roared as he threw the ball at a high speed.
Optimus's grip tightened as he watched the ball come in. He kept a close eye on the ball and swung with all his might. There was a sharp crack on the bat and the ball went flying…before landing behind the foul line.
"Foul ball! Re-pitch!" A red acting as umpire stated.
"What the devil? Oh well, you just got lucky that's all." Bastion stated as the ball was tossed back to him.
"Luck had nothing to do with it. I just kept my eye on the ball." Optimus said with a cheeky grin.
"We'll see." Bastion said as he got ready to throw the ball again.
"Bring it on!"
And brought it on Bastion did…or tried to anyways. For every ball he pitched Optimus managed to hit another foul ball. For 15 minutes, Bastion tried every ball pitch he knew; sidewinder, curveball, fast. He tried everything, but Optimus managed to hit every one of the pitches and fouled. Bastion, who was sweating by now, brought his mitt up to pitch again.
How is it possible? I've figured out the trajectory needed for the strikes as well as the speed…so why hasn't Optimus struck out? The young genius thought.
"One more time!" Bastion shouted as he threw with all his might.
Optimus gave a cat like grin making Bastion realize something too late; Optimus had fouled on purpose but why? The top yellow got his answer when Optimus punted the ball and due to it having more momentum, the ball went skidding across the smooth field.
"Thanks Bastion." Optimus shouted as he ran toward first base.
The genius could only stare in shock as he now realized that the gang leader had tricked him by making him lower his guard. Optimus could've punted before but with Bastion's cat-like reflexes, the genius could've grabbed the ball and tossed it to first getting an out. So the leader had tired him out by doing the foul balls.
Bastion chuckled to himself and brought his mind back to the game.
TTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
10 minutes later
Optimus chuckled as he got the next Ra out. He took a look at the score board and silently congratulated himself for tricking Bastion with the foul ball ploy.
The score board now read 6 to 3 with the Slifer's in the lead. Optimus turned back and saw Bastion at the bat.
"Let me guess, you want a chance for revenge right?" Optimus said with a smirk.
"Too right. I admit that ploy of yours was good Optimus, but the trick won't work twice." Bastion said with a smirk.
"Who said anything about using the same move? You ready?" Optimus asked with a smirk.
"Always."
"Then game on!"
"Soon to be game over!"
They didn't know that Crowler was walking nearby plotting against Megatron and Optimus.
"Sega and Isabella couldn't beat those two and Chazz couldn't beat them…who can beat Optimus Prime and Megatron?" Crowler said woefully before he dimly heard a cry of 'Incoming!'.
He should've paid attention to the warning; out of nowhere a UFBB struck him in the side of his face, namely his right eye. The force of the ball sent him into a stock pile of other sports equipment. Optimus and Syrus ran to where they had seen someone get hit with the ball.
"Man, why do people not take a warning of 'Incoming!' seriously anymore?" Optimus asked himself.
When the two got there, Crowler had managed to dig himself out of the avalanche of sports. Syrus whimpered in fear while Prime just asked himself, 'why me?'.
Crowler glared furiously at the two with the one good eye he had due to the ball still being in his right when he got the idea of who the culprit was that hurt him…at least in his mind.
"YOU! WELL, OF COURSE, WHO ELSE CAN CAUSE PAIN THIS INTENSE?" Crowler screamed.
The sound of cruel laughter interrupted the good doctor's rant. The trio looked up to see Megatron and his gang. The evil kid chortled at the poor man's expense.
"That's one way to keep your eye on the ball…but it really doesn't suit your eyes…mind if we fix it?" Megatron asked with a cruel smile.
"AS IF I WOULD LET YOU TOUCH ME!" Crowler roared.
"Lord Megatron, duck!" Shockwave shouted from afar.
You see, Megatron had seen Crowler get beamed with the ball before anyone else noticed and got a wicked idea in his head. He had ordered Astrotrain, the largest and strongest of his group, to head down to the field and practice his batting. The big Decepticon member caught on and went down to the field. He had picked up a bat and an extra ball; no one on the field dared to challenge the big guy for fear of getting sent into orbit. He tossed the ball into the air and hit with enough force to split a few seams on the ball.
Shockwave's warning was another part of the brilliant plan he had made on the fly. Needless to say, when Megatron ducked, the second UFBB hit Crowler in the Left eye.
"!" Crowler screamed as he went flying back into the equipment again.
"Heh, you're out Crowler. Let's go guys." Megatron said as he began to walk away.
The rest of the Cons soon followed as Bastion ran up.
"I'm sorry! It was my fault. I…what the devil happened?" Bastion asked as he looked at the knocked out Headmaster.
"Megatron…and I thought the underwear flag he did was scary…" Optimus muttered.
"Too right…" Bastion said as he watched the doctor re-dig himself out with both balls giving him a bug like appearance.
"Bastion? Is that you? Here I am looking for a new accomplice and here it smacks me in the face…or rather eye but that's beside the point!" the doctor said with a joyful face…as he spoke to the wall.
"Um, Dr. Crowler, I'm over here." Bastion said.
"Oh! My mistake!" Crowler said as he whipped around to face the boy losing the two balls in the process.
Once the baseballs had hit the floor, the trio saw the damage; both eyes were now black and blue with the left one being a little swollen.
"Please accept my apologies about the one ball hitting your right eye." Bastion apologized.
"No no no no no! There is no need to apologize! I've been meaning to have my contact lens replaced anyways and now I have the perfect excuse! And the perfect new protégé." Crowler said aloud to the group with the last bit then to himself.
"Well, since you have much to talk about you two, we'll leave you alone." Optimus said as he walked away with Syrus in tow.
"That's right! Get out of here you two! Never mind those two, Slifer Slackers, I believe its time to you started to associate more with those of your caliber Bastion. Its time you started to work with me." Crowler said.
"I must say I have to agree…it is high time I moved up in rank…after all, Optimus Prime has taken the top slot as Freshman Star." Bastion mused aloud.
"Wonderful! I shall set up a duel between you and Chazz Princeton immediately!" Crowler stated as he pranced off.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Crowler's Classroom-later
Chazz was not in a happy mood; he reason for his grumpiness? Two people who should be below him, Optimus Prime and his twin brother, Megatron.
They had not only beaten him on several occasions but had humiliated him as well in front of the Blues and females of the school.
As soon as he entered Crowler's class, he glared at everyone before calling to a few blues talking.
"Yo! Foot Rub, Ice Tea now!" The blue prince roared as he sat at his desk.
"Get it yourself, loser." Came the unexpected reply.
"Wha?" Chazz said as he looked at the group.
"Hasn't he heard?" one of the blues asked with a scoff.
"Guess not." Another replied.
"What? What's going on!" Chazz demanded from the three.
"Uh, Chazz? Where do you think you're sitting?" A blue by the name of Richard asked.
"Uh, my seat." Chazz said sarcastically.
Richard shook his head and sighed.
"Sorry man, but that's not your seat anymore."
Chazz glared at the blue and snarled.
"What are you talking about! My name is right there!" Chazz said pointing at the desk.
When he actually looked at it though, he was shocked to see the nameplate was gone. Richard sighed again before speaking.
"Sorry, Chazz but you were moved."
"Moved? Moved where?" Chazz demanded.
"Way over there." Richard said as he pointed toward where several Slifer Reds were sitting.
Chazz gaped like a fish when he saw where he was placed; it was next to all those…those…those rotten reds!
"This is all…all wrong! There's no way I could be moved way over there!" Chazz shouted in anger.
"Again, I'm sorry." Richard said as he placed his hand on the desk next to Chazz's former desk.
"I DO NOT belong over there with those weaklings!" Chazz roared as he stood up.
It was that time that the blue prince noticed that Crowler walked in.
"Dr. Crowler, tell them that is some sick joke or a mistake! Tell them that I belong up here!" Chazz demanded.
"Oh but this is no joke and you don't belong up there after you lost those duels to…oh who was it? Ah yes…JADEN AND JASON YUKI, TWO SLIFERS!" Crowler shouted turning to face the boy and showing everyone his two shiners.
"Technically, Optimus is a Ra Yellow now." A random student pointed out.
"Details, details…anyways, that is why I've set up a duel for tomorrow between you and Bastion Misawa, the Ra prodigy to see if you're even worthy of wearing that blazer or…if you're just some duelist wannabe. Should you lose, you'll be switching dorms with Bastion." Crowler explained.
"Ah, you mean…I become a Yellow?" Chazz asked in horror.
"Very good, Chazz. Now if you only could duel as well as you listen." Crowler said while clapping.
This innocent statement caused everyone from Blue to Red to laugh at the poor boy's expense. This caused the boy to race out after shoving Richard aside, out of the classroom and down the hallway in a fit of rage.
"I will not be a Ra!" Chazz roared as the laughter echoed through his mind.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Ra dorm-Same time Chazz has run out of his class
Optimus looked up from the book he was read/reviewing for his Duel Physics class when he heard a knock at his door.
"Come in." Optimus said as he leaned back.
The Autobot leader may live in the Red dorm, but on certain days, he stayed at the Yellow dorm just to get away from the noise of all the Reds made when they did their own things; homework, worrying over a little space issue or outright dueling in the dorm. He used the Ra dorm as his personal haven.
The gang leader was surprised when Bastion walked in with Syrus.
"Ah, there you are Optimus. I need you for something." Bastion said.
"Oh, okay." Optimus said as he got up and stretched his arms and legs.
After he was done he left with the two and closed his door; he did this for several reasons with the key one being his work. There was always some guy, no matter how smart they be, always were going to go to any lengths to pass and that included cheating…aside from Bastion of course. The three walked down the hallway when Syrus struck up a conversation.
"So Bastion what did you need me and Optimus for?" the little bluette asked.
"Simple. I need you to help me repaint my room." Bastion said.
"Repaint? But why?" Syrus asked.
"You'll see." Bastion said cryptically.
The three soon arrived at Bastion's room and as they walked in they saw that it was covered in various numbers, equations and who knows what else.
"Whoa…I take it that these are the formulas you use to build a deck?" Optimus asked.
"Yep, those are for monsters, that one for spells and that…well, you get the idea." Bastion said as he pointed at the northern wall, then at the left wall before trailing off at the east wall.
"Most of these I've memorized and as you can see I've run out of room to place more equations. So that's why I got Syrus, Optimus. I need you two to help me clean up." Bastion said as he picked up a broom and a pail.
Soon the trio were hard at work re-painting Bastion's dorm room with white paint. Syrus and Bastion got the four walls while Optimus got the ceiling.
"How the heck did he get these on the ceiling? Did he use what Michelangelo used to paint the ceiling of that church with Abraham and God's fingers nearly touching? What was it again, a scaffolding?" Optimus mumbled to himself before putting his brush in the pail again.
"Hey, doesn't Optimus look like Michelangelo, Bastion?" Syrus asked.
"Indeed he does." Bastion said as he looked up before returning to his work on the floor.
"Heh, funny I just said that to mysellllffffffffff!" Optimus shouted as the ladder he was on began to wobble back and forth due to a loose screw.
Prime was able to balance the ladder but had to lose his brush in the process; too bad he didn't see that his brush had flown into Syrus and smacked in the face with white paint.
Optimus's eyes widen and he began to chuckle nervously.
"You know, of course, that this means war Prime." Syrus said with an evil grin if it was possible for the little guy to have one.
"Uh…Sy, wait…let's not act too hasty…it was an accident after all…" Optimus said nervously.
Unfortunately, his pleas fell on deaf ears as Syrus brought the paint can up and tossed its contents at the leader.
Thanks to the war, Prime saw what Syrus was going to do before he did it and had leapt out of the way. Bastion got up from the floor, inspecting it, and spoke not knowing that he was going to be in the little skirmish real soon.
"If you two are done, give me the paint please. UGH!" Bastion shouted as the paint covered his face.
Optimus and Syrus looked at Bastion, then at each other and back to Bastion before laughing their heads off.
"Well, you did say to give you the paint Bastion!" Optimus said through his mirth.
"You got that right!" Syrus said with uncontrolled giggles.
Neither of them heard the door open to Bastion's room and heard the click-click of high heeled boots entering.
"Think this is funny eh?" Bastion shouted as he rubbed off most of the paint with the rag he was holding before throwing it at Jaden.
Again, due to the war, his senses were a lot sharper then most people's were and was able to lean his head to the far right, making the rag sail by harmlessly…or so he thought.
SPLAT!
"Yuck!" came a very familiar voice that made the entire boys freeze.
Slowly, Optimus turned to see Elita with a rag on her face and the rag slowly sliding down to reveal an expression that was wayyyyyyyyy too innocent for a teenaged girl.
"Okay, may I ask who threw that?" Elita asked with a sweet, sugary tone that promised something horrible for those who could pick it up; Bastion was not one of these folks.
"I-I did…please accept my…OW!" Bastion yelled in pain as Elita grabbed his left ear and twisted hard making it crack a few times.
"What made you think you could win in a paint contest against Optimus?" Elita said still in the sugary tone.
"I wasn't thinking, I wasn't!" Bastion whimpered.
"Alright…I forgive you this time." Elita said as she let go of the boy's ear.
"Jeez, remind me to never get on Alexis's bad side." Syrus whimpered.
"I'll stamp a reminder on your forehead." Optimus said.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Later-Ra Cafeteria
"So that's why you said you were going to be late for our date." Elita said as she hugged Optimus's arm.
"Yeah, Bastion wanted my help so I decided to help. You know how I am." Optimus said as he dug into a piece of his lobster.
"Agreed. At least with Bastion treating us, I can make him feel more pain for that attack." Elita said with an evil gleam in her eye.
"That was my fault first off…not for the rag! I'm apologizing for starting the whole thing. I swear that they need to fix the ladders around here. They got a few loose screws." Optimus said with his arms up as he saw the gleam in his girlfriend's eyes turn to him. "I lost my brush which hit Sy in the face with paint and that started the entire thing. Sorry."
"Ah, it's alright. Besides, I get to spend some time with you and not dodging my 'fan club'." Elita said with the words 'fan club' in air quotes.
The two munched on their lobster dinner and enjoyed their company for the time that they had before they had to turn in for the night.

Obelisk Blue dorm-Boy's Dorm
Chazz stared at the large flat screen that had two faces on it; one of the faces had jet black hair that ended in four spikes of hair on either side as well as a small black goatee on his chin. He wore a jet black business suit and tie as well. His eyes were onyx colored similar to Chazz's eyes.
The other man had brown colored hair that was neatly cut as well as onyx eyes. He wore a light blue business suit and a dark blue tie with a blue undershirt.
"So you got it Chazz?" the one with Jet Black hair asked.
"Yeah."
"I can't hear you."
"I said, Yes, I got it."
"Good. Because the Princeton brothers have a plan; your brother and I are following through so you better follow through with your side."
"Come on little bro, the worlds of Politics, Finance and Duel monsters. If we control all three, we control the world!" the brown haired man said.
"Pfh. Unlike you two, you don't have to deal with a crazy duelist or his brother." Chazz muttered.
"What was that?"
"I said, that unlike you guys, I have to deal with these two punks named Optimus Prime and Megatron." Chazz snarled.
The brown haired man's eyes widen before he regained a neutral expression but those who could read a person's face could still see the troubled mind within.
"Look, I don't care about two wannabes duelists. Be the best Chazz." the jet black man snarled.
"Fine, Slade." Chazz said as the screen with his brother, Slade, winked out.
Chazz noticed the other man was still there.
"Jagger, what else do you need to tell me?" Chazz replied.
"Huh? Oh sorry…Chazz be careful around Megatron…he's not a duelist you want mad at you." The man, now identified as Jagger, said before winking out as well.
What was that all about? Be the best? How can I be the best if there are lucky punks like Optimus and Megatron around? Chazz asked himself mentally before looking at his dorm window.
He was greeted with Syrus waiting for someone. Bastion soon came up and Chazz noticed the two heading far to the west.
"Looks like Bastion is heading toward the Red dorm for the night…that means that his dorm room is deserted." Chazz said with an evil smile.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Yellow Dorm
Chazz dashed across the field to the Ra dorm and jumped in through a left open window due to the A/C blowing out earlier in the same room.
The boy got to room 468A which had a lot of furniture outside of the door and room. Chazz smirked knowing that he didn't have to go into Bastion's room.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Next Morning-Ra Dorm
Optimus awoke to the ringing of his PDA which was playing 'The Transformers Theme' by LION at a loud volume. The drowsy leader opened it up and mumbled out a 'hello?'
"Jaden! Oh so good of you to pick up!" came a bubbly tone which made the gang leader sit straight up.
"Miss Dorothy? What's up?" Optimus asked as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes.
Miss Dorothy was a big boned woman who ran the card shack along with her assistant Sadie. The gang leader had run into her the day of the first exams when her car had stalled out when delivering cards to the shack. Prime, being the person he was, helped push the car up the steep hill and made it to the class on time strangely enough.
"I was at the docks unloading some goods near the shore when I saw them!"
"Saw what?" Optimus asked not liking the pit forming in his stomach.
"Cards! Cards tossed everywhere!"
"What?" Optimus asked as he shot out of his bed and got dressed in a flash.
After he got to the docks, Optimus saw Bastion, Dorothy and Syrus there.
"What's the verdict? And whose cards are they?" Optimus demanded.
"Mine. I was careless. This was the same deck that was in the desk that we moved into the hall." Bastion said.
"Shit…no doubt someone doesn't want you to be a blue." Optimus swore.
"You got that right Prime." Came a familiar voice.
The four whipped around to see Megatron there eyeing the cards.
"What do you want bro?" Optimus asked in a neutral tone.
"To see if Bastion was going to get promoted. But by the looks of things he might not…then again, you always have a back-up don'tcha Bastion?" Megatron asked as he began to walk to the academy but stopped.
"Hey Bastion…" The Decepticon leader asked.
"Yes?"
"Crush Chazz for me will ya? He gives duelists a very bad name with his attitude." The boy said without turning around to face the group.
"I will." Bastion said.
"Good." Megatron said while resuming his walking.
"Come on, Bastion. The promotion exam starts in thirty minutes." Optimus said wondering what his brother meant about Bastion having a back-up plan.
TFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTFTF
Duel arena
"Ah, Bastion! You've made it. Oh and I see you brought some friends." Crowler said happily then with distain as he saw Optimus and a small Slifer Red run into the arena with Bastion.
"Heh, hope you duel better then the company you keep, Misawa." A familiar voice said.
"Chazz? So that's what Megatron meant! Since he's your test opponent and since me and bro beat him so badly in front of the school…he'll do anything to stay here including tossing your deck!" Optimus snarled.
"Pardon?" Crowler asked in shock.
"I don't know what the hell he's talking about, Dr. Crowler. I didn't do a thing."
"Oh, is that so?" Came two voices.
"Huh?" Everyone stated.
Five figures were there; two of them were boys while the other three were girls; Elita, Annie and Violet.
"Elita. Megatron. Annie. Violet. Um, who the heck are you? You look familiar but I can't recall you." Optimus asked the tall blue-haired boy from Obelisk.
"That's Zane…my older brother. I think you met him back at the opening exams." Syrus said in a depressed tone.
"Brother?" Megatron and Optimus chorused together.
The two looked at one another with a glare before returning to the land of the listening.
"What do you mean, Miss Rhodes?" Crowler asked.
"I saw Chazz this morning near the water. He tossed in a deck before hightailing it out of there." Elita explained.
"And if you want more proof here's my eye in the sky that caught you at Bastion's room." Megatron said as there was a screech as a hawk flew in and rested on Megatron's shoulder. The hawk cried once before a camera came out of its helmeted head and played back a clip showing Chazz leaving the Ra Yellow dorm with the deck in his hands.
As soon as the clip ended, the dark boy glared at the obelisk blue prince.
"Normally Miss Elita and I wouldn't snitch; however, you messed with someone's deck and that is unforgiveable." The leader said with a glare as the hawk preened its feathers.
"That's low Chazz…even for you." Optimus said.
"Oh come on! Who says that I wasn't dumping my own cards! Bastion and I may have had similar decks! Didn't that ever cross your feeble mind?" Chazz snarled at Optimus and Megatron.
"Liar!" Syrus shouted.
"No one calls me a liar or a thief!" Chazz roared.
"You best remember the warning your brother Slade gave you last night, Princeton…or else you will wake up only to wail with the souls of the damned." Megatron said in a dead tone making everyone's spines shiver…including Zane's.
"Fine, you aren't a thief or a liar. Let's just have our duel shall we?" Bastion said with a glare.
"But how?" Syrus asked as a few lights bulbs went off in Optimus head.
"You've got a spare deck don't you Bastion?" Optimus asked.
"Indeed I do." Bastion said.
"Wow, he's got a back up? Huh…I knew that the guy was smart." Violet said in an off-hand tone.
"You got that right." Annie said.
"Those formulas were for my six other decks and they are as powerful as the next one!" Bastion cried as he opened his blazer to reveal several different decks.
"Yeah, well you can have your six stinking decks cuz all I need is this one!" Chazz shouted as he held up his deck. "Now let's throw down!"
"Of course. Duel disk on! You are just a problem that needs solving, a theorem that must be cracked!" Bastion shouted as he inserted his deck.
"Then bring it on!" Chazz roared.
"DUEL!"
Chazz: 4000/Bastion: 4000
"Hope you're ready cuz here comes the hurt!" Chazz shouted as he drew his card.
The blue prince looked at it before slamming it onto his MZ.
"I summon Chthonian Soldier in attack mode!"
(Chthonian Soldier-LV/4, Attribute/Dark, ATK/1200, DEF/1400, Type/Warrior/Effect. When this card is destroyed by your opponent's attacking monster and sent to the Graveyard, inflict the Battle Damage you took from this battle to your opponent's Life Points as well.)
A man in black armor carrying a large, heavy sword arose onto the field with a roar before brandishing its sword in front of its body. Chazz smirked as he grabbed another card.
"I set a card facedown and that'll do for now."
"Oh will it now? My draw!" Bastion shouted as he drew.
"Sounds like Bastion has a plan." Megatron said as Laserbeak recorded the duel for its true master to study.
"He works fast." Annie stated.
"Ditto." Syrus muttered.
The British genius looked at the card he drew and smirked.
"I play Hydrogeddon in attack mode! Arise my elemental beast!"
(Hydrogeddon-LV/4, Attribute/Water, ATK/1600, DEF/1000 Type/Dinosaur/Effect. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 "Hydrogeddon" from your Deck.)
A monster made out of brown water came onto the field in rush. It roared at Chazz who glared.
"I now attack your soldier with my beast…finish him off!"
The monster let out a stream of compressed Hydrogen that completely vaporized the monster. Chazz growled as his life points dropped.
Chazz: 3600/Bastion: 4000
"Thanks, cuz now I can use Cthonian's special power…which inflicts damage directly to you equal to the amount I took."
"Not too shabby." Zane said.
"Yes, but Hydro has a power too…it allows Bastion to summon another one from his deck." Optimus stated.
"So that's why he attacked. Not only to destroy Chazz's monster but also to summon another one from his deck!" Violet said.
"That's right. Thanks to my monsters own effect I can summon another Hydrogeddon directly from my deck. So rise my monster!"
In another spurt of liquid hydrogen another dinosaur arose onto the field with a roar.
"And my battle phase is still active so my second Hydrogeddon shall attack you directly! Go Hydro Gust!"
The second Hydrogeddon monster launched an attack directly at Chazz. The boy cried out in shock as the attack nailed him and caused him to lose his balance.
Chazz: 2000/Bastion: 3600
"You'll pay for that…" Chazz snarled as he drew another card.
The blue prince looked at the card and added it to his hand. He looked at Bastion and scowled.
"I activate the trap card, Call of the Haunted! With it I can summon a monster from my grave! That's right, Chthonian Soldier returns!"
In a clash of electricity the revived monster returned to the field with a roar.
"Next up is the spell card Infernal Reckless Summon!"
(Inferno Reckless Summon-Type/Spell/Quick-Play. You can only activate this card when 1 monster with an ATK of 1500 points or less is Special Summoned to your side of the field while there is a face-up monster on your opponent's side of the field. Special Summon all cards with the same name as the Summoned monster from your hand, Deck, and Graveyard in face-up Attack Position. Your opponent selects 1 monster on their side of the field and Special summons all cards with that same name from their hand, Deck, and Graveyard.)
Two more Soldiers arrived in clashes of electricity. All three roared as a third Hydrogeddon appeared in the middle of the first two.
"That makes no sense…neither one of them has the attack power to take them all on." Annie mused.
"Unless he is playing Chthonian Alliance." Megatron muttered having seen the move before from a cult leader.
"I play the equip spell card, Chthonian Alliance! Any monster equipped with this card gains eight hundred attack points times the number of monsters with the same name."
One of the soldiers ATK went from 1200 to 3600 and it grow to considerable height making everyone there, except for three, nervous.
"Now Attack!"
The powered up warrior slashed its big sword right through the other Hydrogeddon and with the explosion slashed a majority of Bastion's life points.
Chazz: 2000/Bastion: 1600
"Aw, man. Misawa's life points are nearly gone. He's gonna lose the duel." Syrus said.
"No…he won't." Megatron said cryptically.
"Bravo. Good show. But now it's my turn." Bastion said as he drew.
The boy looked at it and placed it on one of his MZ.
"I play Oxygeddon and then attack the twelve hundred attack power Soldier."
(Oxygeddon-LV/4, Attribute/Wind, ATK/1800, DEF/800, Type/Dinosaur/Effect. When this card is destroyed by battle with a Pyro-Type monster and sent to the Graveyard, inflict 800 points of damage to both players.)
The big wind like bird let out a cry that completely destroyed the smaller soldier.
Chazz: 1400/Bastion: 1600
"Forget something? You take damage equal to the amount I took." Chazz snarled.
Chazz: 1400/Bastion: 1000
"Then one of my Hydrogeddon attacks your other weak warrior."
The said monster let out another gust of liquefied Hydrogen that wiped out the other monster.
"I am rubber, you are glue, all damage bounces off of me and sticks to you!" Chazz taunted.
Chazz: 1000/Bastion: 600
"Why does Bastion keep attacking when it's hurting himself?" Annie asked.
"Not really…Bastion is playing smart." Optimus said with a smirk.
"Wha?" Violet asked.
"Alliance only works if a monster of the same name is in play…currently the one equipped with it has thirty-six hundred attack points due to the other two being in play. Bastion would have to summon an incredibly powerful monster to destroy it. But since he attacked the weaker ones…" Zane explained.
"He weakens the one equipped monster. To win this game the player must always be ready to sacrifice some life points." Megatron said with a smirk.
"Last I'll play a card facedown and call it quits."
"Will it? I wouldn't be so sure whiz kid!" Chazz roared as he drew.
He glanced at the card and smirked. Bastion, seeing the smirk, frowned.
"I give up my powered Soldier and all the cards in my hand in order to summon…Infernal Incinerator!"
(Infernal Incinerator-LV/6, Attribute/Fire, ATK/2800, DEF/1800, Type/Fiend/Effect. This card can only be Normal summoned or Set by discarding all cards in your hand to the Graveyard except this card, and by Tributing 1 monster with 2000 or more ATK you control. This card gains 200 ATK for each monster your opponent controls. This card loses 500 ATK for each other monster you control.)
Everyone gasped while Megatron looked slightly surprised. Bastion's eyes widened in disbelief at the announcement of the new monster.
"The Infernal Incinerator?"
A large Lizard with a partially melted skeleton on top of its head arose onto the field with a mighty roar. Bastion scowled as he saw the monster. Chazz laughed with apparent victory.
"You're gonna have to find a formula to defeat this monster of mine. Cuz thanks to my Incinerator's effect, he gains two hundred attack points times the number monsters on your side of the field." Chazz said with a smirk.
"Since Bastion has three monsters, then the Incinerator has thirty-four hundred attack points."
Infernal Incinerator-ATK/3400
"Shit! No matter what Monster Chazz's attacks with, Bastion's going to lose!" Elita said in shock.
"Not unless that trap card can negate the battle phase." Optimus said.
"Go my Incinerator! Attack his Oxygeddon! With Fire Maelstrom!"
The monster roared as it let out a stream of blood red fire toward the wind-bird. Bastion suddenly smirked making Chazz realize too late about the facedown card Bastion had played.
"Go, Amorphous Barrier!"
(Amorphous Barrier-Type/Trap/Normal. Activate only if your opponent declares an attack while you control 3 or more monsters. End the Battle Phase.)
Several pillars of what looked like glass rose up and blocked the attack. Bastion smiled as the fires died out.
"Due to this trap, your battle phase is at an end." Bastion said.
"Aw, so what? One turn is all you bought. Next round you're all mine!" Chazz said with a grin.
"There is no next turn for you." Bastion calmly replied.
"Say what?"
"This is the end Chazz." Bastion said as he drew his card and looked at it.
The genius smiled and then slammed it into his spell/trap card zone.
"I play the spell card, Bonding-H2O!"
(Bonding-H2O-Type/Spell/Normal. Tribute 2 "Hydrogeddon" and 1 "Oxygeddon". Special Summon 1 "Water Dragon" from your hand, Deck or Graveyard.)
"By giving up both of my Hydrogeddon and my Oxygeddon I can create a new monster…Water Dragon arise!"
(Water Dragon-LV/8, Attribute/Water, ATK/2800, DEF/2600, Type/Sea Serpent/Effect. This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by the effect of "Bonding - H2O". While this card is face-up on the field, the ATK of FIRE monsters and Pyro-Type monsters become 0. When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 2 "Hydrogeddons" and 1 "Oxygeddon" from your Graveyard.)
A pillar of water came forth like a tornado and when it pulled back it revealed a dragon made up entirely of water. Bastion pointed at Chazz's monster with a glare.
"And since my monsters have decreased, so does your monster's attack points."
Infernal Incinerator-ATK/3000
Chazz smirked as he glanced at the attack power of the Liquid dragon.
"Like it matters, my monster's attack points are still higher then your dragons." Chazz said with his eyes closed.
"I believe that you should re-do your homework…because I've done the entire math!"
"What?" Crowler shouted.
"It appears that Bastion had this all planned out from the start." Megatron said as he turned and left.
He had all he needed.
Back at the arena, a large tidal wave of water crashed into the fiery fiend making it moan in pain as steam rose.
Infernal Incinerator-ATK/0
"The attack points!" Chazz shouted.
"That's my dragon's effect. The attack points of all fire attribute and Pyro-type monsters instantly become zero. Now my dragon attack!"
The large dragon spewed out a surge of water from its mouth that crashed into the weakened monster. Against a surge of pressurized water the monster was crushed on impact.
The force of the water knocked Chazz off the arena and flooded the entire floor.
Chazz: 0/Bastion: 600
"Aregh! You just a got lucky draw!" Chazz shouted in anger.
"Luck comes to the prepared…it didn't matter what deck I would've used you would lose. But then again, you would deny it; just like you denied throwing my deck into the sea."
"I told you I didn't do it! But if I did, prove it!"
"If you insist; here's a card I fished out of the water with a formula I wrote on it. Of course you could say that you wrote it but then the math would be wrong and I can assure you it is not. You lied, cheated and lost. You deserve to be demoted." Bastion said.
"Aghhhh…this…this can't be!" Chazz whimpered out.
"Bastion Misawa, congratulations and I welcome you to Obelisk blue." Crowler said.
"I'm sorry but I must decline that invitation."
"What? But why?" Crowler asked shocked.
"When I first came to DA, I swore I wouldn't enter Blue until I became the best…however, there are two others that surpass me…Optimus you are the first one…your brother is the second person. So until I can defeat the both of you, I'm not worthy for blue."
"So you want to settle this right here, right now Bastion? Seeing you two duel really got my blood pumping." Optimus asked.
"Sorry, but not now." Bastion said.
"Let me guess…you need to create a formula to beat both mine and Megatron's decks right?" Optimus asked.
"Yep."
"Well, here's to who wins our match!" Optimus said with thumbs up at the Ra genius which Bastion returned.
Well, hope this was better then the last chapter. Please R&R.
