Thetrueazure: Well guys, looks like Ritsu is going on a date this chapter. It's going to be a short chapter.
Ritsu: Great, announce it to the whole world why won't you.
Kazuma: Uh Ritsu, this is on the internet.
Ritsu: *Eyetwich* Shut up. Thetrueazure does not own Yugioh 5D's. He does however own me, Kazuma, Miharu, Shin Himuro and the cards he makes. Other OCs and OC cards belong to their respective owners.
Ch.21 A Relaxing Day
It was morning, when everyone was eating breakfast and talking about what will happen in the quarter finals of the Dragon's Cup. Kurogasa looked around and noticed someone was missing.
"Where's Ritsu?" Kurogasa wondered
"He's still asleep." Krad said "He stayed up all night." Kurogasa got up and headed towards Ritsu's room "What are you going to do?"
Kurogasa smiled "I'm going to give him a wake up call."
"This should be good." Terra said as everyone else followed him.
Ritsu was fast asleep as Kurogasa walked in with his angel duel disk on his wrist with everybody else looking from outside.
"Time for your wake up call." Kurogasa whispered as he activated his duel disk "Leonidas, how about some help." Kurogasa's ace card appeared as he signaled everyone to cover their ears "Three...two...one!" Leonidas let out a deafening roar that caused the room to shake a little bit.
"Ahhh!" Ritsu fell out of his bed and hit the floor. He looked up at who disturbed his sleep "Kurogasa.."
"Don't blame me, blame yourself." Kurogasa slyly said as he walked out
After a few minutes, Ritsu walked in the kitchen where everyone was still eating. He took a seat right next to Yuzuki.
"So why were you up all night?" Krad asked as Ritsu took a bite of his bacon
"I was up all night doing research on the Order and do you know what I found?" Everyone leaned in for the answer "Nothing." Krad fell over
"What?"
"I've been through every record known to man, I even hacked the public security network and all records were terminated." Ritsu said as he started to massage his head and got up. "I'm going to go work on my duel runner." He left, leaving everyone in the kitchen
"Poor Ritsu, he's been working so hard these past few days." Keira said as everyone nodded in agreement "We should do something nice for him."
"Yeah but what?" Kurogasa asked
Kuraki nudged Yuzuki a bit "Yuzuki should take him on a date." That four letter word made Yuzuki turn beet red
"W-What are you talking about? I can't do that!" Yuzuki's voice stammered when Kuraki gave a sly smile
"Come on! Either you ask him out or we'll do it for you." Krad said "Trust me." He went towards Ritsu's garage
Keira sighed "Those two words put doubt in my head when Krad says that."
In Ritsu's garage he was working on his duel runner frame listening to his stereo when Raikou appeared across the room.
"Ritsu, why are you doing this?"
"Look Raikou, we have two enemies; Apollyon, and the Order. I need to get as much information as I possibly can." Their conversation was cut short when Krad walked through the door
"What do you need Krad?" Ritsu asked as he was writing notes on a piece of paper
"I have one quick question. What would you do if I had set you up on a date with Yuzuki?" The Dark Knight duelist cringed when he heard a audible snap from Ritsu's pencil.
Ritsu turned towards him with a shocked look on his face "Please tell me you didn't."
Krad started to laugh nervously "Well, funny you should mention that." Ritsu held up five fingers "What are you doing?"
"You have five second to run; four...three...two.."
Krad began to back up "Now, now Ritsu, you gotta calm down."
"ONE!"
Keira was drinking a cup of green tea while everyone else was talking among themselves.
"Dammit Krad! I'm going to kill you!" Ritsu's voice echoed throughout his house.
Keira sipped her tea and turned to Yuzuki "I suppose it's time I jumped in." They saw Krad running at full speed with an angry Ritsu right behind him
"Come on Ritsu! I didn't really do it!" Krad used Keira as a shield to protect him
"Hey! Do I look like a shield to you!"
"Keira I'm not going to lie...Yes you do." That earned Krad and elbow in the nose, knocking him out.
Keira sighed when she turned to Ritsu "Ritsu, a word, now." Both of them walked out of the room
"Look, you've been working so hard these past few days and found nothing but Insomnia." Keira said in a hushed tone "We want to do something nice for you, so we decided both you and Yuzuki should go out on a date just to calm your nerves." She then pulled out two tickets and gave them to him.
"What are these?" Ritsu asked
"These are tickets for a festival that's coming to town tomorrow." Keira said "Ask her if she wants to go."
"Fine." Ritsu said "But Krad owes me."
Keira smiled "Don't worry, I'll deal with him."
Ritsu walked back into the living room and stood in front of Yuzuki.
"Yuzuki." Ritsu said
"Yes." She stepped foward
Ritsu couldn't find the words to say until Keira elbowed him in the side
"Will you go with me to the festival tomorrow?" Ritsu asked when he held out the two tickets Keira gave him
Yuzuki smiled "Yes Ritsu, I'll go with you." She hugged him and walked off
Kurogasa nudged him "Look who's bold. If everything goes right tomorrow, you could have a girlfriend."
Ritsu glared at Kurogasa "Do you want me to chase you too?" Kurogasa put his hands up in defense
"Please don't hurt me." Kurogasa said in a playful tone
The next morning Ritsu got up out of bed and started to get ready for his date with Yuzuki. He put on a black button up dress shirt and his white jacket with blue jeans. While he was getting ready Raikou appeared and started to laugh.
"Well don't you look spiffy today." Raikou said
"Quiet you! I have a favor to ask." Ritsu said
"Shoot." Raikou said
"I want you to stay here for today." Ritsu said " Sorry but I want today to just be with Yuzuki."
Raikou nodded "I got it, I'll stay here."
"Thank you."
When he walked out of his room and walked in the living room where everyone was. When he saw Yuzuki he blushed. She had her hair in a bun, but wore her usual clothing.
"Look who decided to show." Krad said when Ritsu glared at him "Eeek! Don't kill me!"
"You look beautiful." Ritsu complimented, making Yuzuki blush. He held out his arm "Shall we get going?"
"OK." Yuzuki wrapped her arms around his as the walked out
When they made it in the festival the saw a lot of different booths with different prizes
"So what should we do first?" Yuzuki asked
"Well according to the ticket there will be a fireworks show in about 2 hours, so we can go to any booth." Ritsu said while reading the ticket he had.
"A fireworks show? Sounds nice." Yuzuki said
"Aw come on!" They turned to where the voice came from. They saw a duel puzzle booth where a small boy was on the ground sulking about something.
"How am I suppose to solve this duel puzzle? It's impossible!" The boy said
The person in the booth just shrugged "Better luck next time kid. Anyone else want to try?"
"Ritsu, why don't you try it." Yuzuki tugged on Ritsu's arm "You could probably win."
He smiled "I don't see why not, it could kill some time. Hey! I'll take a shot!" Ritsu yelled at the booth owner
"Alright young man step in the arena. The rules are simple; you get one turn to win against me, if you win, you get a prize, however if you lose, well better luck next time." The booth owner explained "Here's the puzzle. You have 100 life points while I have 20,000, the only card in my hand is Honest (4/1100/1900), you have four set cards and a face up Dark Door. You also have six cards in your hand, two cards in your deck, now, what will you do?"
Ritsu: 100
Booth owner: 20000
"OK, first things first, I play the trap Limit Impulse! I discard two card to summon two Soul Tokens (1/0/0) to the field in attack mode by discarding Dandylion and Ally of Justice Core Destroyer." Ritsu discarded the said cards when two orbs of light appeared "Next, since Dandylion was sent to the grave, I get two Fluff Tokens (1/0/0)." Two pieces of fluff floated on the field.
"Aww! Their so cute!" Yuzuki gushed over the tokens
"Sorry Yuzuki, but there no staying long because I play the trap Nightmare Archfiend and sacrifice one of them in order to summon three Archfiend Tokens to his side of the field." One of the tokens vanished when three evil demons appeared on the field (6/2000/2000). "Next I sacrifice the second one in order to activate the spell Enemy Controller in order to take control of one of the tokens." One of the demons flew over to Ritsu's side "Next I play Allure of Darkness to draw two card and remove one DARK monster from my hand." Ritsu drew the last two cards from his deck and pocketed Gravi Crush Dragon (6/2400/1200).
Yuzuki was confused at this "Why would you do that?"
"Patience Yuzu, I play the trap Escape from The Dark Dimension to bring him back!" A green dragon with giant fists appeared on the field "Next I summon Lava Golem (8/3000/2500) by sacrificing the other two tokens you have." A giant lava creature appeared on the field "Now I remove a spell card from my grave in order to special summon Spell Striker (3/600/200) in attack mode." a small warrior wearing a vikings helmet appeared "Now I play the equip spell Scroll of Bewitchment! Now your Lava Golem's attribute gets switched to LIGHT!"
"Now you gave opportunity to use Honest." The booth owner scoffed
"I'm not done yet, next I play Leeching of Light. Now by choosing a LIGHT monster you control, all of my monsters gain attack equal to the attack of the monster you control." All of Ritsu's monsters started to grow larger as they gained more power (2400-5400), (2000-5000), (600-3600), (0-3000)X2 "Now I activate Gravi Crush Dragon's effect! By sending a face up continuous spell from my field to the grave, I can destroy 1 face up monster you control." Dark Door vanished as the dragon threw a punch at the lava beast, destroying it in pixels "If my math is correct then the combine attack of my monsters now is 20,000."
"Meaning Ritsu won!" Yuzuki said
"Have at it!" Ritsu commanded all of his monsters to attack the owner directly
Ritsu: 100: Duel Puzzle Solved
Booth Owner: 0
Yuzuki ran over and hugged him tightly "You were awesome out there!"
"Thank's Yuzuki, can you stop trying to break me in half." Yuzuki loosened her grip
"Congrats young man. As promised you may pick a prize." Ritsu looked around and found a necklace that had the Yin-Yang symbol on it
"I'll take the necklace." Ritsu said as the owner gave it to him "Thanks."
After that booth Yuzuki and Ritsu went to other ones, winning varies prizes until it was time for the fireworks show
"It's almost time." Yuzuki said when Ritsu started to pull her somewhere "Hey, where are we going?"
"We're going to the top of that hill so that we have a perfect view of the fireworks." Ritsu said while they were heading towards the hills
When they made it, they sat down when the fireworks started, they were in awe at the multi-colored explosions in the sky.
Yuzuki turned to Ritsu "Ritsu." He looked at her "Thanks for saving me."
"No problem." Ritsu smiled when he said that "Yuzuki, close your eyes."
"Huh?"
"Just do it."
Yuzuki did as she was told, she closed her eyes wondering why she was doing it. While she was wondering she felt something warm press against her lips, when she opened her eyes she saw that Ritsu kissed her.
"Ritsu.." Yuzuki blushed as she touched her lips, she then leaned in and kissed him as well "Thank you."
He took her hand while she rested her head on his shoulder and watched the rested of the fireworks
Krad was looking out of the window, seeing if Ritsu and Yuzuki were back yet.
"Krad, get your head out of the window!" Keira yelled at him
"Come on Keira, leave him alone." Nami said "He's just seeing if they're back yet."
"They're here!" Krad yelled as he scrambled to get a safe distance away as Ritsu walked in, holding hands with Yuzuki. "Soooo...How'd it go?"
"It was great." Ritsu said
"Yeah it was awesome." Yuzuki said as she kissed Ritsu on the cheek. "I'm going to bed."
"OK." When Yuzuki left the room Ritsu turned to Keira "Thanks."
"No prob." He then turned to Krad and gave him a piece of paper
"What's this?" Krad asked
"The list of chores you'll be doing for two weeks." Ritsu said as he left the room
"TWO WEEKS!"
"You should start now Krad if you want to finish." Keira said when she walked out of the room as did everyone else leaving him alone
"Someone kill me." Krad slumped over
Yuzuki was getting ready two go to bed, when she took off her jacket she felt something in the pocket. She took it out and saw that it was the Yin-Yang necklace Ritsu won and a note simply saying 'for you' on it.
"Thank you Ritsu." She smiled
