"YUEI! Get over here!" Yuei ran into the classroom, closing the door behind him.
"Sorry I'm late, teacher." Yuei ran to his desk, and sat down. He pulled out his deck, and sat it down. The teacher shook his head.
"Ok, class, get out your cards." The rest of the class pulled out their cards, and placed them on the desk. The desks turned black, and a line of light appeared. "Your decks are being scanned now, do not touch them." The light scanned the entire desk, and then turned back to it's brown color. "Ok, who's ready to do some math?" Everyone nodded. Everyone's deck sank into their desk, and the cards started to shuffle themselves. The decks lifted themselves back up.
A student raised their hand, and stood up. "Sir, my deck has been changed." The teacher nodded.
"Anyone else?" Yuei raised his hand, and stood up.
"I only made a few minor changes, but I've already managed to beat an opponent." Every stared back at Yuei.
"You normally never win Yuei." Another student butted in, "Come on Yuei, why don't you show me the power of your deck?" The teacher whistled.
"Kids, sit back down! Pull out your first hand."
Yuei, and the other student, sat down. Everyone drew 5 cards, and their desks turned black again. A grid appeared on the desk, and lifted itself.
"As you know kids, I'll be taking the first turn. The duelist to take my life points down to zero will get extra credit. Now, let's start." The teacher slipped on a duel disc, and plugged it into the screen behind him.
Duel:
Teacher Ando: 4000
Class: 4000
"I'm taking the first turn, class. Now, remember Battle Royal rules. No one can attack until everyone has gone." The whole class nodded. "Ok, let's go. I play Genex Ally Bellflame in attack mode!"
Genex Ally Bellflame
DARK / Level 4 / Machine-Type Effect Monster / ATK: 1700 – DEF: 1000
A red robot-like creature appeared on the screen. It has fire flowing out form several places on it's body. It had a siren on it's stomach, and a blue visor on. "I also activate my spell card, Blustering Winds."
Blustering Winds
Spell Card
"Target 1 face-up monster you control; it gains 1000 ATK and DEF until your next Standby Phase."
"I set three cards face down, and end my turn. Now, Kamei, it's your turn."
The girl in front of the class jumped out of her chair, and raised her hand to her face. "I-It's my turn, D-Draw!" Yuei sat in the back of the class, so it'd be a while before he got his turn. In a class of 20 people, it's no wonder he gets to go last. A few minutes passed. Everone was summoning monsters, trying to get the teacher's monster destroyed. But the only kid in the class who could even get their monster strong enough had a Winged Kuriboh LV10, and Teacher Ando destroyed it quickly with his Security Orb, which changes the battle position of a monster.
"Yuei! It's finally your turn."
Yuei looked at his teacher, and nodded. He stood up, and pulled out his hand. "I DRAW!" Yuei drew one card from his deck, "I se-" There was a knock on the classroom door, interrupting Yuei. "UGH! Fine. I'll get the door, Teacher." Yuei set his cards down, and walked to the door. He slid it open, and there were two big men standing in front of him. They were wearing black suits, and had a small box in their hands.
"We're looking for a Yuei Mitsui."
Yuei stared at them, his face turning bright red. They pronounced his name wrong, and he hated when people did that. "IT'S YOU-A! YOU-A! GET IT RIGHT NEXT TIME!"
The two men looked down, and saw that Yuei was right in front of them. "You must be Yuei, then. Sorry about the mis-pronounciation. I'm not used to reading kanji yet." The man gestuered to Yuei, signaling him to take the box. Yuei gathered as much, and slowly pulled it out of the man's hand.
"W-What is it?"
The man smiled. "Special order from the head of Kaiba Corp. Said it was specificially for a Yuei Mitsui."
Yuei looked at the insignia on the top. It was a Blue Eyes, with a Kaiba Man engraved over it. "Open it," Yuei jumped back. "Me and my partner here are curious as to what's inside." Yuei nodded, starting to sweat. He openend up the box, and there was...
"Is this some kind of joke?" Yuei pulled the top card out, and shoved it into the man's face. "Did you really have to set this up? Why would I fall for this?" Yuei put the card back down, and looked at it. Artifact Sica, is this real?
"T-The boss told us there were instructions in the box.".
"I'm going to use this one card in my hand. If it works, and you aren't completely messing with me, I'll take all of them. Otherwise, you can have them." The two men nodded, and Yuei walked back to his desk. Everyone was staring at him, as he walked back. Yuei dug around in the small box, and pulled out a slip of paper. He read over it, and slid it back in. "Well, Teach, let's get this duel goin'!" Yuei put his hand back in, along with the card he had just recieved. The deck lowered itself back into the desk, and shuffled itself. It raised back up, and Yuei drew his hand of five. "I DRAW!" Yuei pulled the top card of his deck, and saw Artifact Sica. "I set four cards face down, and end my turn."
Teacher Ando laughed, and stared at Yuei. "I see, so it's just another monster? I draw!" The teacher looked at his hand. "I play the spell card, Rush Recklessly!"
"Not yet! I activate my trap card, Torrential Tribute! Your monsters are gone!"
"Yes, Yuei, but so are the monsters your peers have summoned."
Yuei smirked. "No problem, I activate my quick spell, Double Cyclone!"
Double Cyclone
Quick-Spell
"Target 1 Spell/Trap Card you control and 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; destroy them."
"I'll destroy my face-down Artifact monster, Artifact Labrys, as well as the face down on your left. "
The teacher laughed. "I activate the other trap I had set, Common Charity!"
Common Charity
Trap Card
"Draw 2 cards, the remove from play 1 Normal Monster Card from your hand. If you don't have any, send all cards in your hand to the Graveyard."
"So, I'll draw two cards. Oh look, it's a Raigeki. I'll go ahead and play that to destroy your monster." Yuei was shocked. The cards that all the teachers use are pretty common knowledge. But, no one knew that the teacher had a Raigeki. "Now, Yuei, I'll banish the genex controller in my hand." Teacher Ando put the card from his hand onto his desk, signifying that it had been banished. "But I'll also play the Burial from a Different Dimension. So I get to bring Genex Controller back." In fact, I think I'll summon him.
Genex Controller
DARK / Level 3 / Machine Tuner / ATK: 1400 – DEF: 1200
"Now, since you have no monsters on the field, am I right to guess that you only have Artifact monsters facedown?"
Yuei smiled, "You have my word." Ando lifted his arm.
"I attack directly with Genex Controller."
Yuei forced his arm forward. "I ACTIVATE MY FOCUS CARD!" Everyone stared at Yuei, and watched as a new card type lifted itself up on the screen. "This card is the fusion of monster and trap. I activate Artifact Sica's Focus effect!"
Artifact Sica
Light / Level 5 / Fairy & Focus / ATK: 2200 – DEF: 1500
"Focus Effect: When an opponent's monster declares an attack: Destroy 1 Spell/Trap Card you control. If the destroyed card was an Artifact monster, then you may destroy 1 monster your opponent controls, and deal 800 damage to them. You cannot conduct your next battle phase."
"I destroy my face down Artifact Labrys! And in return, I'll destroy your Genex Controller!" The monster on Teacher's field turned into blue dust, that drifted off. "And now, to continue his effect, Artifact Sica is sent to the graveyard, and you're dealt 800 damage!"
Teacher jumped back, as a small shock went through his arm. Teacher looked at Yuei, everyone was looking at Yuei. "Now, everyone," Yuei taunted. "What's 4000 minus 800?" The kids in the class stood up, and yelled at Yuei. "3200!"
Teacher Ando:
Life Points: 4000 → 3200
"Yuei Mitsui, what is that card?"
"I don't know. I know just as much as I've said. It's the fusion of a monster and trap card. This one, and the others in the box, were made specifically for my deck. All I know, is that I'm using the rest of them Later."
Teacher Ando looked at the rest of the class. "Turn off your desks, kids. I think I'm gonna finish this with Yuei." Yuei smiled, and nodded. The class all followed their instructions, and stood up to pay attention.
"Well, this is the only Focus Card in my deck, so it'll have to do."
Ando nodded his head. With no cards on his field, he pointed to Yuei. "It's your turn."
"How about I play my Mystical Space Typhoon, before your end phase is over of course.I'll destroy my facedown monster, Artifact Chakram! And from his effect, he's automatically special summoned." Yuei drew his card, as Teacher Ando clapped his hands.
"Congrats, Yuei. In two turns, you've managed to lower my life, and keep me from atacking you. Not only that, but you have two monsters on the field. One with 2300 ATK, and one with 1900 ATK, respectively. Come on, finish me off!" The teacher lifted both his arms, streatching them out.
Yuei launched his hand forward. "Artifact Labrys, Attack with Artifact Chakram! Go! Ancient Burst!" A red spirit appeared behind Chakram, and threw it at the screen, a purple spirit appeared behind Labrys, and grabbed it's handle. It lauched the Labrys forward, slicing at the screen."
Teacher Ando:
Life Points: 3200 → 0
Duel End
Teacher Ando walked up to Yuei, and raised his hand. "When these cards become official, I hope you can teach us the basics, Yuei." Yuei nodded, and forced himself out of Teacher's grip. He ran to the door, and asked for the box. The two men gave it to him, and walked off. I need to check the rest of these cards when I get home. Yuei sat down at his desk, and tried to stay quiet the rest of class.
Yuei ran as fast as he could, everyone seemed to want a look at the new focus cards. But all Yuei wanted was some peace and quiet. In fact, why did I get these cards? Who even is the head of Kaiba Corp now? You never really hear from the- Yuei's thoughts were cut off, as more students started running towards him. "NEVER MIND! I'LL JUST RUN!" Yuei ran into his house, slamming the door behind him. He locked the door as fast as he could, trying to keep everyone out. Yuei's mother walked up to him, after closing th windows in the kitchen.
"Yuei," Yuei's mom shoved her face behind Yuei's. Yuei's face sank, his expression became fearful. He turned around, only to see his mother's angry, and scary, face right in front of his. "WHAT DID YOU DO THIS TIME?"
Yuei ran around his mother, and ducked under the table. "I GOT A BUNCH OF NEW CARDS, AND EVERYONE WANTS TO SEE THEM!"
"I see, so you went to that card shop and used some more of your college fund?"
"THAT'S NOT IT EITHER! Kaiba Corp sent these directly to me, I didn't even know these were a thing!"
Yuei's mother picked up his bag, and looked through it. "Are they in this box?" Yuei nodded, as his mother opened it. She picked up the cards, and slid through them. "Even working as a card shop instructor, I've never seen these before. What are they?"
Yuei pulled himself out from under the table, and stood up. "Kaiba Corp sent these to me. The people delivering them said they were made specifically for me.
Yuei's mom gave the cards to her son, and turned around. "Kaiba Corp, run by the five time grandson of Kaiba Seto, what was his name?" She thought to herself, as Yuei dusted the dirt off his clothes. "Kaiba Yoshida. That was it! Yoshida-Kun would've told me about a new card type, so this must not be official yet. So why did he choose my son, of all people?"
"MOM! I'M RIGHT HERE!"
"Maybe..." Yuei stared at his mother, as she turned around to face him. "Maybe he knows."
