*GX crew walks out on stage and sees a note*

Alexis: "What the? Where YF?" *Picks up the note*

Optimus: "Dunno. But he did leave a note. What does it say?"

Chazz: "Probably a Lame Excuse Note."

Alexis (Begins reading): "Dear Crew, I'm currently absent from announcing the next chapter because I might have some pretty pissed off readers right now. I'm currently under a Charm that protects me from others with myself as a secret Keeper. I don't want people coming here and trying ot maim me. and if Chazz has made a comment about this being a lame excuse letter/note, someone please use Plan 21."

Chazz: "Plan 21?"

*Alexis pressed a button labeled 21*

*Chazz gets whacked in the nuts with a fifty pound hammer. He falls into fetal postion whimpering.*

Bastion: "And on that note, let's begin the disclaimer"

Everyone: "YF54 does not own Transformers or GX. Though he does own three Number Cards."

Last Time on Transformers GX:


"She's setting the stage for us to be vanquished. She's a shadow Rider. And a tough one at that. The Amazon tribe as Bastion stated is made entirely made up of women. Not to insult you or anything, but Wonder Woman is a prime example of an Amazon."

"None Taken. She is a model Amazon but peace can only be bought by the blood of others. My name is Tania." Tania introduced herself before she smirked saucily.

TFGX

"Well, then shall we begin? And don't worry Bastion. The duel won't be a shadow game."

"What?" Everyone cried.

"See, I don't want your soul, Bastion. I want you!" Tania said as she wiggled her body some.

Megatron's eyes narrowed and he clenched his teeth.

Shit…she is searching for a husband and with her 'deck guns' it won't be hard to get any boy under her spell. Megatron thought with a grimace.

TFGX

"Omega Minus! Attack her tiger!" Bastion shouted suddenly much to the shock of Optimus.

"Doesn't he know that Tania still has a facedown card?" Optimus shouted.

"Shit! The talk of love must frozen his gears! He's thrown logic out the window!" Chazz thundered as Tania laughed.

"Got ya! I activate the trap card, Amazoness Archers!"

(Amazoness Archers-Type/Trap/Normal. Activate only when your opponent declares an attack while you control an "Amazoness" monster. All monsters your opponent controls are changed to face-up Attack Position (Flip Effects are not activated), and lose 500 ATK as long as they remain face-up on the field. Your opponent must attack with all of their monsters.)

TFGX

"Yes…I'm yours." Bastion said in a dazed voice making everyone look at him with shock.

"No…we lost another key." Elita moaned.

"That's right, sister. And now…oh kitty!" Tania said as the tiger pounced near the group.

TFGX

"Tania will pay for this…mark my words…she will…pay." Optimus promised coldly as he stared through the gate.

TFGX

Now for 'A distracting duel pt 2'.

TFGX

A loud, agony filled scream tore through the night making Chazz look at the Arena with a scowl.

"Man, they're still at it? They've been dueling all night. And judging by those cries, Bastion's losing." Chazz commented.

"I can't help but feel hopeless at not being able to help him." Elita said with a frown.

"Nothing we can do right now. We have to wait for morning's first light to do anything." Optimus said as he glanced at his brother up in trees.

Megatron was standing on one of the branches and was looking up at the stars, a look of sorrow on his face. There was a streak of light and Megatron sighed in agitation.

Morgan…I swear I'll never forget you or what you said to me. Heh…just like you to see if I was alright…considering…the horrors of the darker human nature that I've seen. Megatron thought as he sat down on the branch, leaned back and drifted off into a light sleep.

TFGX

Daylight streamed through the leafs and cast itself into Megatron's eyes. The gang leader opened them only to snap them shut once the light struck.

"Damn rays…can't get any sleep around here." The boy grumbled as he worked the kinks out of his shoulders.

He was distracted by a unison gasp from the group below. Megatron looked toward the arena and saw Bastion walking out, his blazer open and a dazed look on his face.

"Bastion!" Optimus shouted as ran toward the boy.

Megatron leapt down from his tree and joined the group as they crowded the boy as he slumped to the ground. Megatron took notice of the flushed look on the boy's face and scowled.

"Not good. Bastion's in a dangerous love loop." Megatron hissed to himself.

"Bastion, come on snap out of it!" Chazz hissed at the Ra genius.

Optimus's and Elita's eyes widened in realization at the mournful look on the boy's face seeing it one time on Megatron's face before he had went AWOL on everyone.

"Wait a second…she dumped you?" Elita asked in shock.

"I don't understand; she was smitten with you." Syrus said shocked that Tania would flirt, marry and then dump someone.

"That's right; we were to be married." Bastion said in an airy voice making the group gasp.

TFGX

Flashback

"But she decided that I wasn't duelist enough." Bastion said as he recalled the memory.

"You call that a duel?" Tania asked as Bastion's life points fell to zero. "You aren't worthy to be my husband. Beat it."

Bastion gasped in surprise as he stared up at the now dawning sky as Tania turned away from him.

"I need someone…someone who can duel at my level." Tania commented as she retired to her private quarters leaving Bastion to stare after her.

"My love…" Bastion whispered.

Flashback end

TFGX

"She wanted a champion…someone who can give her the challenge of a lifetime…and I…was not good enough for her." Bastion said as a lone tear escaped his right eye.

"Bastion…" Optimus muttered as the Ra student got up and walked away from the arena and he group.

TFGX

Bastion stared at the sky through the hall windows, the flush on his cheeks still visible. He groaned in pain as he clutched his head, remembering the flirting of Tania in the duel.

"Tania…" Bastion muttered in a love sick tone.

Behind the Ra, Optimus and Elita stood watching the boy.

"Man, this isn't good…he still got Tania on the brain." Optimus said.

"Yeah, he's got it really bad…" Elita said with a concerned look.

"We'll need something to get his mind off of his girl trouble…hmmm…science club is out…same with the math club…a duel…yeah! A duel!" Optimus said with excitement. "Elita go get the others while I go and get one of Bastion's decks. Rendezvous at the Duel Arena."

Elita caught the gleam in her boyfriend's eye and smiled; she knew that look all too well.

"You got it! I'll see you at the Arena." Elita said as she raced off to get the others.

TFGX

Duel Arena

Bastion walked into the duel arena after getting a message from Optimus saying to meet him there. The minute he walked in, he spotted Optimus, Elita, Megatron and the rest of the key bearers.

"What do you lot want?" Bastion asked sullenly.

Optimus brought out a deck and showed it to Bastion.

"A duel." Optimus said with a smile.

"I can't…it's too soon. I can't duel without…my Tania." Bastion said, his eyes glazing over at the Shadow Riders name.

"Bah! I knew that this was a waste of time. Misawa is worthless both as a duelist and a lover." Megatron said as he began to walk out.

"The same could be said for you too! After all, a lover would've made sure that their loved ones didn't die a meaningless and worthless death!" Bastion shouted back at Megatron, angry at being insulted.

The Decepticon overlord paused in his steps, making Optimus's neck hairs stand on end.

"Oh…shit." Optimus mumbled as his brother slowly turned around to face the Ra genius.

The words justified the aura that Megatron was emitting; he slowly stalked forward and everyone got of the way, knowing that an angry Megatron was a deadly Megatron.

The twin to Jaden got up in Bastion face and sneered, with his voice cold and dark.

"Care to repeat what you just said, Yellowbelly?" Megatron calmly asked.

"I said, quote, 'The same could be said for you too! After all, a lover would've made sure that their loved ones didn't die a meaningless and worthless death!' end quote." Bastion snapped hotly.

"I thought so." Megatron snarled before he punched Bastion in the gut.

Bastion doubled over in pain but he was distracted by the pain his face was feeling as Megatron's knee smashed into his face. The Ra stumbled back only to be caught be Megatron's hand and brought to eye level with the gang leader.

"Let me make this perfectly clear and simple for you; I tried my damndest to keep Morgan safe and out of the war's way. But it was fruitless. The next time you insult the dead…I'll make sure you'll never wake up from nightmares of your own creation." Megatron said his voice cold and even.

Bastion rapidly nodded his head and he was placed back down to earth a bit roughly. The gang leader gave the genius a glare before he frowned.

"What the hell was I thinking? You? Worthy of my attention and dueling skill? What a joke." Megatron said as he stalked off.

Once Megatron left, some of the others did too casting sorrowful looks at the boy who looked down, knowing that he had crossed a forbidden line.

The attack cemented Prime's plan in the gang leader's head; he knew that it was time to duel Tania.

TFGX

Arena

"ARGH!" came the roar of a very pissed off Amazoness.

"This island is full of weaklings!" Tania roared as she beat her chest like some sort of female Tarzan.

She turned her fists on a poor defenseless wall making Bass, her tiger, cringe. Whenever his mistress got like that, it was best to run and/or hide.

"I need someone that can give the thrill of a true battle." Tania said after she struck a beam causing Bass to cringe again.

The Amazoness then left the area she was in with Bass right behind her. The ceiling came down just after Bass got his tail out of the door.

TFGX

Slifer Dorm

Optimus rummaged through his many decks looking over the cards.

"No doubt about it…I'll need to use my Cybertronion War deck." Optimus mumbled to himself.

"Huh? Prime? What are you doing up?" Syrus asked as he rubbed sleep from his eyes.

"Getting ready Syrus…I know I need some rest but something tells me that Tania wants a duel…and soon." Optimus said before there was knocking at the door.

Optimus looked up before he got up from his desk and walked over to the door. Once he opened it, he was shocked to see…

"Bastion! What…what's up?" Optimus asked confused.

"No time! You need to get to the Arena now! Tania wants a duel!" Bastion shouted before he turned around and ran off into the woods.

"Wait! Now?" Optimus shouted after the retreating figure. "Shit! Syrus! Alert the others! Knowing Megatron he's already there!"

"You got it!" Syrus shouted as he jumped out of bed and grabbed his PDA as Optimus ran out.

TFGX

Arena

Optimus managed to catch up to Bastion and the two raced their way to the Arena. Once they got there, Bastion cried out.

"Tania! Where are you?" Bastion shouted causing a voice to reply.

"Keep it down! Some of us are trying to sleep!" Megatron roared from a tree before he went back to sleep.

The others soon reached the area where Optimus and Bastion were. Elita wrapped her arm around her boyfriend's.

"Thought you could use the back-up, Optimus." Elita said when there was a rustling from the bushes.

The rustling got louder and a shadow leapt out from them causing everyone to gasp and squeal in terror as Tania and her cat landed in front of the group.

The amazoness looked at the group before her eyes landed on Bastion. She face became a glare at the boy making Bastion cringe.

"Didn't I beat you already? Go, get out of here!" Tania snapped before Optimus walked forward.

"Tania! I challenge you to a duel!" Optimus said as he stared the shadow rider down.

"A duel huh? Well, I admit that I'm in a good mood for a fight now. You know the rules right?" Tania asked as she looked the boy up and down.

Elita glared at the woman who was looking at her man like a piece of meat, but she stayed her tongue as the group marched inside the arena.

TFGX

Arena

Optimus stood on one end of the Arena while Tania stood on the other and the two stared one another down. Tania brought out the two decks and held them up for everyone to see.

"Alright, you know the deal; you lose, I get you spirit key and you leave that Alexis girl and get to be my husband. Win and I'll leave. Now pick a deck." Tania said with a wide smile.

"I chose the deck of power." Optimus said he slammed his War for Cybertron deck into his disk.

"Wise choice. Why don't you start us off?" Tania said with a coy smile.

"With pleasure!" Optimus said as he drew five cards and then a sixth one to follow along.

The gang leader looked over his hand and saw that he had drawn the cards he needed.

"I play Autobot Medium Solider in defense mode!"

(Autobot Medium Soldier-LV/4, Attribute/Light, ATK/1500, DEF/1000, Type/Machine. One of the most common of soldier in the Autobot army. This unit is used primarily in raids and counter-attacks.)

The red car from Nightshroud/Atticus's duel drove out from the card and onto the arena. It transformed into its robot mode and brought forth its machine gun as it knelt down in front of Optimus.

"I'll set down a facedown and end my turn."

"That's your move? Ha!" Tania said as she drew a card.

The warrior lady looked at the card before placing it on an MZ space.

"I play Amazoness Paladin! You should know this card's effect. She gains a hundred attack points for each card that has Amazoness in its name."

Paladin-ATK/1700+100=1800

"Next I play the spell card, Amazoness Charm."

(Amazoness Charm-Type/Spell/Normal. Select 1 Defense Position monster your opponent controls. Change it to face-up Attack Position; it gains 200 ATK.)

"This card forces your monster into attack mode and gives it an attack boost of two hundred points."

The Autobot warrior rose from its position as Energon flooded his circuits giving him the power he needed.

Autobot Solider-ATK/1700

"I don't get it, why give that monster a boost?" Chazz asked.

"For the thrill of it. The passion." Bastion replied as he watched the duel.

"So feeling excited yet? Hope you aren't getting too distracted."

"No, nothing distracts me…well, expect my girlfriend. She's the only one that distracts me." Optimus said with clear conviction.

The statement caused Elita to blush but smile at the praise; it only caused Tania to get a bit annoyed.

"Looks like I'll have to beat that girl out of your head then. And what better way to beat it out of you then with this spell card? I play the field spell, Amazoness Arena!"

(Amazoness Arena-Type/Spell/Field. When you activate this card, both players gain 600 Life Points. If a monster battles, each player can pay 100 Life Points to inflict 100 damage to their opponent.)

"The arena is a sacred place where souls will do battle; it is not only beautiful to look at but deadly to your health. First we gain six hundred life points." Tania explained as a large cage covered the entire field.

Chazz gulped as he gazed at the cage.

"Man, she must be man crazy if she's got to use a cage." Chazz gulped.

Optimus knew the card's effect and got into a ready stance which made Tania smirk.

Tania: 4600/Optimus (Jaden): 4600

"Seems to me that you know the effect of my card so I'll just get straight to the battle. Go Amazoness Paladin, attack his Mech Solider!"

The woman warrior let out a battle cry as it leapt into the air and slashed her sword through the machine like a hot knife through butter. Optimus quickly pressed a button his disk and revealed the trap card.

"I play the trap card, Autobot Reserves!"

(Autobot Reserves-Type/Trap/Continuous. When a machine type monster on your side of the field is destroyed as a result of battle or by a card effect, special summon 1 level 4 or lower machine type monster from your deck.)

"Thanks to this trap card, I can summon out an Autobot Cloaker in attack mode."

"That's all well and good, but you forgot my arena and battle damage is still going." Tania said with a small smirk.

Tania: 4600/Optimus (Jaden): 4500

"Now I give up a hundred of my life points so that our spirits may do battle."

"What?" Everyone asked making Megatron (How he got there is still a mystery to this very day) explain.

"Amazoness Arena is a double edged field spell card. Tania is sacrificing her life points to do damage to Optimus's Life points." Megatron said answering the question.

"I give up a hundred of my life points so that our souls may do battle!" Tania roared as her life meter dropped.

Tania: 4500/Optimus (Jaden): 4500

A spectral form of Tania appeared on the field and a Spectral form of…

"No way! Optimus Prime!" Everyone, including Megatron, shouted in shock as the Robot form of Jaden's Namesake appeared.

The form was of the G1 variant in a spectral form; its blue optics was glowing bright blue as it stared Tania down. The robot and woman spirit braced their bodies before kicking off.

Tania's spirit let out a war cry as it smashed its fist into the chest plate of the robot. Jaden hissed in pain as his life points fell again.

Tania: 4500/Optimus (Jaden): 4400

The robot spirit flew back a bit due to the hit but it lashed out with its leg and struck Tania in the stomach.

Tania: 4400/Optimus (Jaden): 4400

"Ugh…nice kick there." Tania said as she clutched her stomach.

"That was a pretty good punch too. Pity you weren't in Domino when the cult war was going on. You'd make an invaluable ally." Jaden said with a smirk.

"What the? They complement their attacks?" Chazz asked shocked.

"I'll end my turn at that."

"Right my move!" Jaden snarled as he drew a card.

When the gang leader looked at the card he had drawn, he smiled as it would come in handy later on but for now…

"I declare a direct attack with my Cloaker! Go, Plasma surge!"

The Autobot snickered in its mechanical voice before vanishing from sight. Tania looked everywhere for the smallest bot but didn't see it or a large ball of energy forming behind her.

Tania was blasted off her feet as the ball of energy was unleashed on her.

"ARGH!" Tania roared as her life meter dropped like a stone.

Tania: 3400/Optimus (Jaden): 4400

"Now that I'm entering my second main phase, I'll release cloaker to summon out…Autobot Berserker in attack mode!"

(Autobot Berserker-LV/6, Attribute/Light, ATK/2300, DEF/1900, Type/Machine/Effect. This card can attack twice per turn. By giving up 500 life points, you can increase this monster's ATK by 2500. If you use this effect, destroy this card at the end phase of the turn.)

The smaller Autobot fell apart as a larger robot with a hammer and shield appeared next to Jaden.

"I'll end my turn at that."

"My move then! HAH!" Tania roared as she drew her card.

The female warrior looked at it before smirking.

"I'll set down a facedown and then I'll summon the Amazoness Swordswoman in attack mode!"

"Not good. That card will reflect the damage right back to Jaden." Zane said worried.

"I know that you know my monster's effect, so I'll just attack your monster. Go Sword slash frenzy!"

The swordswoman roared as it surged forward, holding its blade high. The Berserker brought its shield up and blocked the strike before spinning around and slamming its hammer into the gut of the female warrior destroying it.

A small bit of the sword cracked and soared through the air slicing its way through Jaden, making him howl.

Tania: 3400/Optimus (Jaden): 3600

"Ready for the second round?" Tania asked as her life points fell.

"You bet!" Jaden said as the Powermaster form of his Namesake appeared.

Tania: 3300/Optimus (Jaden): 3600

Tania's spirit roared as it took off into the air followed by Powermaster Optimus. The two spirits met in the center of the arena and clashed; Tania's leg went out and kicked Powermaster Prime's face causing the robot to stumble back a bit.

The leader of the Autobots got its bearings back and lashed out with a right hook to Tania's neck. The fist struck true and the spirit gasped a bit before she collapsed.

Tania: 3200/Optimus (Jaden): 3500

"Man, that's smarts…but nice attack there." Jaden said as he wiped some blood off his now bleeding lip.

"Thanks…but this duel is far from over." Tania said as she looked over her hand before grabbing another card.

"I'll place a card facedown and end."

"Right then. My turn!" Jaden said as he drew a card.

The gang leader looked at the card he had drawn and smirked.

"I play the monster, Arialbot Drone in attack mode!"

(Arialbot Drone-LV/4, Attribute/Wind, ATK/1600, DEF/1800, Type/Machine. A drone under the command of Jetfire and his Arialbots. The drone is used for high-altitude bombing runs on key Decepticon bases.)

A red jet roared out from the card and joined the Soldier that was still in defense mode. When it transformed it hovered with its feet and had photon gun on its left arm. Its face was similar to the Autobot cloaker with a helmet over the head.

Tania looked at the card before smirking.

"You seem to have forgotten about my facedown card; go Amazoness Blessing!"

"What's that card do?" Chazz asked confused.

"What it does is allow me to summon an Amazoness from my grave. So return! Amazoness Swordswoman!"

(Amazoness Blessing-Type/Trap/Normal. Activate this card only if your opponent has summoned a monster excluding Ritual summoning. Special summon 1 monster that has Amazoness in its name.)

"Oh great…now I got to deal with this monster again." Jaden muttered as he looked over his hand.

He grabbed a card and placed it in his spell/trap card zone.

"I'll set down a facedown and then have my Drone attack your Swordswoman."

"WHAT?" Everyone, save Megatron, cried.

"Idiots…Arena's effect grants Prime to use it. Even the smallest amount of damage can turn the tide in a duel. Prime's trying to hit Tania hard and fast at the cost of his own life points." Megatron explained.

The drone changed itself into its vehicle form and strafed the field; the swordswoman managed to deflect most of the bullets right back to Jaden who groaned but the monster was ultimately destroyed as a missile struck it.

Tania: 3200/Optimus (Jaden): 3400

"Ready?" Jaden asked as his life points fell by another one hundred.

"Always for you." Tania said coyly making Jaden shake his head.

Tania: 3200/Optimus (Jaden): 3300

The spirit forms of both duelists appeared again, But Jaden's had changed to the Optimus Prime Robots in Disguise form. The two leapt into the air and began to exchange blow after blow much to the awe of the spectators as the fists of the Amazoness missed the body of the RID Optimus by mere millimeters while the fists of Optimus missed the Amazoness by scant inches.

Tania finally got a blow on the robot; her fist struck the plate that covered the robot's mouth. Jaden barely flinched but he grinned as his spirit got the same action that Tania had and it nearly snapped the woman's head as it lashed back.

Tania: 3100/Optimus (Jaden): 3200

"UGH! THAT HURT!" Tania roared as she recovered from the attack.

"Sorry, you left yourself open on that one." Jaden commented which made Tania chuckle.

"Good point…"

"But now its my Berserker's turn! Go! Thunder hammer pound!"

The robotic monster roared as it raced forward its shield raised high as it brought its hammer back. Tania growled as the Hammer struck the ground and sent several spikes of Earth digging into her skin.

Tania: 800/Optimus (Jaden): 3200

"I'll set one card facedown and end my turn."

"My move then!" Tania roared as she drew a card.

The Amazoness looked at the card she had drawn and smirked at what she saw.

"I play Amazoness Tiger! With this kitten in play, she gains four hundred attack points for each Amazoness monster in play.

Amazoness Tiger-1100+400=1500

"Next I play Monster Reborn!"

"Uh oh." Jaden said as he saw the card.

"This card allows me to bring back a monster in either player's graveyard and I chose…My swordswoman!"

"Why not one of Jaden's cards?" Syrus asked making Alexis's eyes widened.

"Because her Tiger wouldn't then get the power boost! She aims to take out the Drone!"

"You got that right sister! Amazoness Tiger attack his Drone!"

The tiger roared as it launched itself as it grew larger than the drone. The robot tried to fight back but it turned into scrap metal by the claws of the beast.

Tania: 800/Optimus (Jaden): 2900

"Ready?"

"You bet!"

The two spirits came out, this one Optimus Primal from Beast Wars in its gorilla form roaring as it transformed. The two leapt into the air and began to exchange punches and kicks. Primal got a left uppercut to Tania's stomach as her right leg struck the area where an ear would be.

Tania: 700/Optimus (Jaden): 2800

"Pretty good. And now my Swordswoman attacks your Berserker!" Tania shouted as the Warrior lady rushed forward.

The Berserker let out a roar as it banged its fist on its chest and rushed forward. Jaden grimaced as he saw what was coming next.

This is going to hurt. He thought as the two monster's clashed.

The Swordswoman blade smashed against the shield of the Machine casuing it to shatter as the Hammer of the Warrior smashed itself against her head.

"Better duck!" Tania said with a laugh as the blade sailed right over the Machine and into the air.

Jaden didn't follow Tania's words; he stood tall and proud as the blade sliced through his body.

Tania: 700/Optimus (Jaden): 2000

"Here we go again." Jaden said as the aura surrounded both him and Tania.

The Optimus Prime from Transformers Armada appeared in front of Jaden and charged forward. Tania's soul appeared in front and charged at Jaden's spirit. The two spirits began to clash each one missing one another by mere micro-inches.

Tania got lucky and managed to knee Jaden's spirit in the chest but the robot didn't feel the pain.

Tania: 600/Optimus (Jaden): 1900

The robot spirit ducked another punch by Tania's and slipped behind her; bringing both of its hands together, it raised them high over the head and swiftly brought them down just as the Spirit Tania turned around to face the spirit. The clasped hands smashed down on the back of the Amazoness casuing her to cry out.

Tania: 500/Optimus (Jaden): 1900

"UGH!" Tania cried out as she returned to her body. "That was an impressive move on your part."

"Thanks, your strike was nothing to sneeze at either." Jaden said with a grin at the older woman.

"You know, both Optimus and Tania make a better couple then Tania and Bastion did." Chazz said with a hidden grin, thinking on how to woo Alexis.

"Idiot." Megatron sighed as he made sure that he was far enough away from the Black jacketed teen.

He wasn't the only one to do this; everyone, Key bearer and non-key bearer slowly moved away from the boy as Elita stood up and smiled sweetly.

"Chazz." Elita said with a fake sugary voice.

"Yes, my dove?" Chazz asked with a tinge of red.

POW!

Elita struck Chazz with a nasty Phantom Right Hook that sent him flying from his seat and back out into the forest. Megatron did some mental calculation on the trajectory and the angle of the punch; once he had figured it out, he began to chuckle.

"Elita, you just sent him in a small patch of Poison Ivy. Nice Shot." Megatron said with an evil grin.

Elita nodded curtly at the Gang leader before returning her attention to the duel, muttering something. Megatron only caught a small bit of her mumblings, words like, 'Jaden', 'date' and 'that thing'. He closed off the ramblings and returned to the duel.

"I draw!" Jaden shouted as he drew a card from his deck.

The Autobot gang leader looked at the card he had drawn and gave a small smirk. Tania caught the smirk and narrowed her eyes.

What did he draw that made him smirk like that? The amazoness thought as Jaden looked up at her.

"Bet you're wondering what I drew." Jaden said smirking at Tania's nod of the head. "All in time. First up, I activate a Spell card called Iron Call."

(Iron Call-Type/Spell/Normal. If you control a face-up Machine-Type monster: Target 1 Level 4 or lower Machine-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon the target. That monster is destroyed during the End Phase.)

"This spell card is just a proto-type, but with this field test, Pegasus may just set it out for distribution. What it does is allows me to special summon a Machine-type monster, as long as it star level is four or less. So rise again, Arial Drone!"

The flying Autobot returned to the field in a flash of light and its jets flaring. It settled down by the Berserker and Jaden grabbed another card from his hand.

"I tribute both Berserker and Arial Drone in order to summon out…Autobot Tank in attack mode!"

(Autobot Tank-LV/9, Attribute/Earth, ATK/3000, DEF/1900, Type/Machine/Effect. This card cannot be Special Summoned. When this card is Normal Summoned Successfully, place 3 Armor Counters on this card. When this card attacks or is attacked, remove 1 armor counter and reduce this card's ATK by 500. If this card Attacks or is attacked with no Armor counters, destroy this card.)

The two robots vanished in twin sparks of light before a large tank rumbled in; the tank was massive! It was the size of a small yacht with a barrel that was at least the length of a car. It transformed to where it towered over the entire field and nearly touched the cage that the two combatants were in. The barrel became a side weapon for the monster and it looked down at the lone tiger on the field.

"This is it Tania. Bastion! I hope this got through your thick head. Autobot Tank! Attack that tiger with Twin Barrel Blaze!"

The tank shouted out a war cry as it changed back into its vehicle form and robot. Tania smirked before she looked at her card.

"Let's go out with a bang big guy! Amazoness Tiger! Attack with Jungle Pounce!" Tania shouted with the tiger roaring in agreement.

The tiger leapt forward to defend its mistress as the energy blast roared out of the Tank's cannons. There was a massive blast of pure white light that consumed the entireity of the field making everyone in the stands blind.

Elita cried out as the blast zone became even brighter.

"JADEN!"

TFGX

The dawning of the sun struck everyone's eyes and jolted them alive. Megatron was standing at the edge of the arena seats, his face cold and expressionless.

"Glad you idiots all are up. Prime won. I'm out of here." Megatron said as he turned on his heel and left the coliseum. The group looked down at the arena and saw Jaden standing with Tania prone a few feet away.

"PRIME!" Elita shouted as she jumped off the stands and raced over to her boyfriend and embraced him. Optimus returned the gesture making Tania's eyes soften and caused her to chuckle.

"I see how much you two mean to one another. I didn't join the shadow Riders for the Beast cards." Tania said making the couple and everyone look at her.

"You didn't want the beast cards? Then why join?" Zane asked.

"I joined to try and find a husband, a strong willed man. I did, but…he has someone else in his life. Take good care of him, Sister." Tania said as she looked at Optimus and Elita.

"I will." Elita said with a strong conviction in her tone of voice.

"Well, then. I take my leave." Tania said as a white glow surrounded her.

The crew gasped in shock as the woman shrank down until she was on four limbs. The glow died away revealing a white tiger with black stripes and a scar over one eye. Bastion heard something very faintly in his mind.

"Good-bye Bastion." He heard.

The tiger seemed to look at Bastion forlornly before turning around and walking away. The group watched until the other tiger ran after the white tiger.

"Three down…Four to go." Optimus said quietly.


Alexis: "Well, that's the end of that chapter. Please read and review. Get enough reviews and I'll show myself off to Optimus in a Slave Leia costume."
