0713MM: Hey guys! Welcome to the 3rd chapter!

Hart: I have my 2nd duel in this chapter, right?

Kite: Yes. With me and Mizar.

Mizar: Indeed.

Hart: Chapter start!

Chapter 3: Battle Royale: Hart, Kite and Mizar vs. Chaos Emperor Dark Mizar Part 1

Kite was looking around for Hart, Mizar was doing the same thing. Soon after that, Hart started running up to them. Kite heard his brothers' footsteps and turned to face him. He smiled.

"Ah, there you are brother." Kite said.

"Was the duel difficult?" asked Mizar. Hart shook his head.

"No, surprisingly." Hart replied. Then, the wind began to blow. Hart turned to face where the wind was coming from. Nothing.

"What the-" Hart began to say. He was cut when they heard a dark laugh. Kite and Mizar narrowed their eyes. Hart jumped back in alarm.

"Who's there?" asked Kite. The dark laugh grew louder, then a black figure appeared. Mizar and Kite readied the duel disks. The figure laughed.

"What's wrong, Mizar?" the figure asked. "Don't recognize me?" Mizars' eyes changed from narrowed to widened.

"How, do you know my name?" Mizar asked, shocked. The figure began to cackle, then he grabbed the top part of his hood, and pulled it so the top part of his hood fell back, revealing his face. Kite and Mizar gasped.

"That's...me!" cried out Mizar, still shocked. "But how?" Dark Mizar chuckled.

"I am nothing more than your darkness, Mizar." Dark Mizar chuckled again. "I'm also the worker of Chaos, and I'm also the manifestation of Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon and Number C107: Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon." Mizar snorted.

"If so, then why are you here?" asked Kite.

"Because my Master demanded that I stall for time. Well, not really, but whatever." Dark Mizar replied. Hart was still hiding behind his brother, but that didn't stop Dark Mizar from saying what he was about to say.

"And dueling you three will be perfect." Dark Mizar finished. Kite turned to look at his brother.

"Hart..." muttered Kite. Hart smiled.

"Come on brother and Mizar!" Hart said enthusiastically. "Let's take him down together!" Kite and Mizar were hesitant to let Hart duel with them, but they eventually gave in.

"Alright, let's do this!" shouted Kite. "Go, Photon Transformation!" Mizar and Hart threw their duel disks into the air and shouted, "Duel disk, go!" Dark Mizar laughed again and activated his black duel disk, and his left blue eye became a shade of black. Mizars' left blue eye became a shade of red. Hart took at his D-Gazer and put it over his left eye.

"Let's duel!" the four of them shouted.

"Since this is a Battle Royale, no player is allowed to attack on their first turn." Dark Mizar said. Kite and Mizar rolled their eyes.

"We know." Kite and Mizar said together. Hart looked troubled and confused.

Maybe I shouldn't have entered this. Hart thought. He shook his head. No, I can't think like that! Dark Mizar smirked.

"Alright, since there is three of you, and only one of me, I'll start. I draw!" shouted Dark Mizar. Dark Mizar sneered at the card he just drew. Kite and Mizar narrowed their eyes while Harts' widened.

"Alright, to begin my turn, I summon Mythic Tree Dragon, and now since I have an Earth monster, I can summon Mythic Water Dragon from my hand. Next, I activate Mythic Tree Dragons' effect. Since I control a Water monster, it becomes level 8." Dark Mizar chuckled. He lifted his right arm up and shouted, "I overlay both of my level 8 monsters! With these two monsters, I build the overlay network and XYZ Summon Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon!" Mizar growled in response. Dark Mizar laughed.

"I told you Mizar, I'm your darkness." Dark Mizar laughed. "Next, I activate the field spell, Dragon Tamer's Sanctuary! And finally, I place 2 cards facedown and end my turn with that. You're next, Hart." Hart stared at his deck that was in his duel disk. He wasn't drawing his starting hand, nor his sixth card. Kite gave Hart a worried look.

"Hart, you okay?" asked Kite worriedly. Hart just stared down at his deck, Ignoring his brothers' question. Suddenly, Harts' deck began to glow a bright yellow light. Dark Mizar covered his eyes.

"What is this?" asked Dark Mizar.

"Don't know." Kite admitted. When the light died down, Hart was still looking at his deck, this time in shock. Then he smiled.

Alright, I know what I need to do. Hart thought as he drew his starting hand of five cards.

"Alright, I draw!" shouted Hart. "I'll begin my turn by activating the spell, Galaxy Draw! With this, I can draw 1 card since you control a Galaxy monster." Hart drew 1 card from his deck. Kite and Mizar stared at Hart in disbelief.

"Galaxy?" asked Kite in disbelief. "Since when did you get Galaxy cards?" Hart shrugged.

"I don't know, exactly." Hart admitted. "My deck just changed while in the yellow light, and then, poof! My deck became something else." Kite nodded.

"Very well Hart, continue your turn." Kite said. Hart nodded.

"Right, Next I normal summon Galaxy Wizard, but I'm not stopping there, next I activate the spell card, Galaxy Expedition. With this, since I have a level 5 or higher Galaxy monster, I can special summon 1 level 5 or higher Galaxy monster from my deck. So, come on out, Galaxy Knight! And now, since I control two Light Attribute monsters, I can special summon from my hand, Guardian of Order! And lastly, I overlay my 3 level 8 monsters and XYZ Summon Galaxy Magician-The Elder!" Galaxy Magician-The Elder Rank 8 3000 attack/3000 defense. Kite and Mizar smiled. Dark Mizar stepped back in shock.

"What? No! It can't be!" Dark Mizar cried out in shock. Soon after that, Kite and Mizar looked at the monster on Harts' field. Both of their mouths fell open.

"Is that-?" Kite began to ask.

"Jinlon?" Mizar finished Kites' question. Hart turned to face them, then nodded. Dark Mizars' eyes were still wide. Hart smirked.

"Now, I activate Galaxy Magician-The Elders' special ability! Since it was successfully XYZ Summoned, I can special summon a Galaxy Magican-The Younger from my Extra Deck. So appear, Galaxy Magician The Younger!" Mizar and Dark Mizar backed up in shock.

"That's-?!" Dark Mizar asked, shocked.

"Me?!" Mizar finished. Hart nodded. Hart smiled. Dark Mizars' eyes began to widen ever farther.

"What are you doing now, Hart?" he asked the young lad.

"Activating my Galaxy Magician-The Youngers' special ability! Since it was special summoned due to my Galaxy Magician-The Elders' special effect, I can target up 2 cards in my graveyard, and add one in my hand. So, Galaxy Draw and Galaxy Expedition from my graveyard, along with the Galaxy Wizard in my hand become overlay units for Galaxy Magician-The Younger. Galaxy Magician-The Youngers' overlay units: 0-3. Dark Mizar was still shocked.

"Impossible." he muttered. Harts' smirk grew wider.

"I place 2 cards facedown and end my turn. You're up, Kite." Hart said. Kite nodded.

"Indeed, I draw!" shouted Kite. Kite turned the card he just drew and smirked. He turned his head to face the Chaos Emperor, who to Kites' surprise, was smiling.

"Since I control no monsters, I special summon Photon Thrasher from my hand, next I normal summon Photon Crusher. Now, since I control 2 Light Attribute monsters, I special summon Guardian of Order. Now, I tribute my Photon Thrasher and Crusher, now come on out and show the light to all who oppose you, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!" Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, level 8, 3000 attack/2500 defense. Dark Mizar chuckled.

It's finally here. he thought. Kite began to smile.

"I'm not done yet, next I activate the spell card, Galaxy Expedition! Now, come on out Galaxy Knight!" Kite shouted. Dark Mizar began to smirk.

Here it comes. he thought. Kite then thrusted his right hand forward.

"I overlay my 3 level 8 monsters and XYZ Summon Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!" Kite finished. Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon-Rank 8, attack: 4500/3000 defense. Dark Mizar laughed.

"At last." he said.

"I end my turn with 2 facedowns. Go Mizar." Kite said.

"With pleasure Kite, I draw!" shouted. Mizar.

Meanwhile, at the food plaza in Astral World...

"Mmm... Tasty!" Alito said as he took a bite of a bagel.

"Nom!" Yuma said as he took a bite of a bagel as well. Tori rolled her eyes.

Boys. she thought. She shook her head.

"We finally made to Astral World." Tori said. Yuma and Alito had to stop eating their bagels in order to respond.

"Huh? What is it, Tori?" asked Yuma.

"Yeah, what is it?" Alito repeated. Tori sighed.

"You two are hopeless." Tori replied. Alito and Yuma then looked at each other, then back a Tori.

"What?" both Alito and Yuma asked at the same time.

"Nothing." Tori replied quickly. Yuma and Alito shrugged and went back to eating their bagels. Soon after, Vetrix, Quinton, Quattro and Trey showed up in the plaza. Trey was looking at his surroundings when he heard a voice. He turned in the voices' direction.

"Who's there?" Trey snarled, readying his duel disk. The voice laughed.

"We will duel soon, Trey." the voice hissed. "And you will lose to me." Trey was confused, then shook it off.

That was nothing. he thought. I haven't eaten anything since we got here, I better do that.

Back to the Battle Royale...

"I'll end my turn with 2 facedowns, you're up, Mizar." Kite said as he tossed his chosen 2 cards onto his duel disk. Mizar smirked.

"Time to show you my power, I draw!" he shouted. Mizar smirked at the card he drew.

"I summon Mythic Tree Dragon, next I activate Mythic Water Dragons' special effect. Since I control an Earth monster, I can special summon it from my hand, so come on out! I'm not done just yet, I overlay my 2 level 8 Dragon monsters and XYZ Summon Number 46: Dragluon!" Number 46: Dragluon, Rank 8, attack: 3000/3000 defense. Dark Mizar flinched.

"That Number." Dark Mizr muttered. Mizar thrusted his right hand forward.

"Next, I activate the spell, Soul Drain! By giving up multiples of 100, I can target 1 monster on the field, it gains the amount of life points I paid." Hart turned to face Mizar.

"Mizar, no!" Hart shouted in protest. Mizar pointed to Harts' Rank 4 Galaxy Magician-The Younger.

"I give up 1000 life points to make Harts' monster stronger." Mizar said. Zap!

"Urgh!" Mizar groaned as his life points depleted from 4000 to 3000. Galaxy Magician-The Youngers' attack: 2000-3000. Dark Mizar began to laugh.

"I don't blame you, Mizar. I would have done the same thing!" Dark Mizar laughed. Mizar got back up on his feet, and gritted his teeth.

"Well, guess what? You're not in my shoes! Now, I activate Dragulons' special ability! By detaching one overlay unit I can special summon a Dragon monster from my hand, so come on out Soul Drain Dragon!" Soul Drain Dragon, level 8, attack: 4000/0 defense. Mizar thrusted his hand forward again.

"Now, I activate Soul Drain Dragons' ability! Since I lost 1000 life points, my Soul Drain Dragon gains that much attack, giving it a grand total of 5000 attack points!" shouted Mizar. Dark Mizar stepped back.

"No!" he growled.

"Oh yes, because now by banishing Soul Drain, the life points I paid get added back to my life points." Mizar explained. Mizars' life points: 3000-4000. Kite smiled.

"Excellent move." Kite complimented. Mizar turned to face him, and nodded.

"Thanks." Mizar replied. "I place 2 cards facedown and end my turn. Back to you, Dark Mizar, the Chaos Emperor." Dark Mizar gritted his teeth.

"I'll win duel right here and now, I draw!" he shouted. He turned the card he drew so he could see it. He sneered.

"Goodbye you three. This duel is over! Hahahahahaha!" Dark Mizar laughed. Hart clenched his fists, Kite readied himself, while Mizar growled.
