Warning. This chapter will be a bit dark.
"Do you have any other questions?" asked the CEO of Leo Corporation.
"Sufficient," I answered.
Currently, I am standing in the CEO's office in Leo Corporation. Needless to say, the room can fit the entire Sakaki house. I am in the room alongside Kurosaki, and a man in black that goes by the code name Nakajima. We are all facing the man behind the desk – Akaba Reiji. I had been given a throughout explanation about the enemy – Academia.
Academia, according to Reiji, is a school that trains 'Duel Soldiers' and is located in the Fusion Dimension, a place Reiji once went. When I heard of the information, I pressed for the method of transport. But they grey haired young man immediately shot me down, explaining that the same transport method had been destroyed when he was forcibly sent back to this dimension. When Reiji is done, I gave him my understanding of Academia.
If the Arc-V version of Academia is similar to the GX version of Academia, then it is best that I compare notes with him. I told him about what I might understand about their classifications. Osiris Red being the 'weakest', followed by Ra Yellow, and then Obelisk Blue. Kurosaki interjected at this point, saying that he had seen these colours before, and more of red than yellow and blue. But on top of that, he mentioned that they were using similar archetypes – Ancient Gears.
When I learn about this, I was furious.
The Ancient Gear, specifically Ancient Gear Golem, used to be my greatest and most favourite monster when I was 13. Back then, I was only a child and the only way I can earn new cards is through a sparse amount of friends or random classmates who actually play the game. The card was my strongest card back then and one of the rarest I have collected. The GX series was the first Yu-Gi-Oh series that I have watch completely and my favourite series. I would always be thrilled when Dr. Chronos used that card, even if he loses.
I relay everything about the archetype without any hesitation mainly due to the growing hatred I have for them now.
"You are surprisingly well informed, Mr. Kyou!" stated Reiji. His glasses were covered in lights.
"Well, I am from a fifth dimension after all, so anything's possible. Besides," I paused as I looked longingly at the D-Pad. The screen is completely black right now, but my mind was imagining that card on it. I sold that card away, and it was one of my greatest mistake, "this war has become a bit personal."
Reiji said nothing else.
I then asked him about Sora. The Academia boy is currently receiving treatment in the Center Court's care ward. When I asked what they are about to do to them, Reiji grew a bit distant, saying that they will be performing some 'questioning' with him. Fine by me anyways. I then excused myself to meet with the Sakakis. No doubt, they would be worried about me since I've been gone for so long. Before I leave, Nakajima, Reiji's man-in-black assistant, gave me an I.D. card which grants me access to certain parts of the building. I accepted it and took the elevator down.
Later that day, I met up with the rest of the group. They asked where I have been that day. I lied to them, telling them I had to 'calm my head in the washroom'. They accepted the excuse, after all the events that played out during duel can be traumatizing to some.
It was already night time, meaning its bed time for kids. I along with Shuzou and Yoko walked the kids home while Yuya, Yuzu, and Gongenzaka stay behind to watch over Sora. When we had sent the children home, the D-Pad rang. I checked the screen and immediately excused myself.
"Hello," I asked the called.
"Shiuin Sora has escaped." The sound of Reiji's serious tone was more than enough for me to get moving. I hold the phone, excused separate myself from the Yoko and Shuzou before continuing the conversation.
"Proceed."
"I want you to head to the Central Park at once. I need an extra pair of eyes in case any unexpected events were to happen."
Central Park. I stare at the direction where the park is located. The park is a few blocks away. I immediately sprinted to the park's direction. When I am about to arrive, I immediately call Reiji again.
"Danna (Master)! I'm about to arrive at the park, how should I engage the situation?" I spoke between pants.
"Do not engage them. We need your eyes on the current situation. Nakajima will be with you shortly."
"Current situation? I understand," I turn off the phone and continued sprinting to the scene. When I arrived, I immediately went for a dive to stop my momentum. The Central Park is a huge area, with lamp posts that could barely illuminate the area. So, it provide enough shadows for me to hide myself. After a few intake of oxygen, I quickly take peek at the scene. To my surprise, I was met with… 3 Yuyas!
Yuya was a single child and he had never mention anything about brothers or sisters. But right now, before my eyes were 3 Yuyas. 1 of them is out on the open next to a destroyed fountain. Another was standing in the middle of the stage while the last one is on a white motorcycle next to a rundown camera.
The Yuya that is in the middle of the stage is more gothic than the other. He had purple and black spiky hair sweeping upwards to the right. His gothic attire consists of a dull green uniform with a black tie and dark blue jeans under a cape-like garment with ripped sleeves.
On the other hand, the Yuya on the motorcycle is the complete opposite of gothic Yuya. He had yellow bangs swept to the right and blue in the back. He wears a white jacket with red borders and yellow stripes on the sleeves, along with matching jumpsuit.
I immediately called Reiji to relay what I saw. I watched them duelled and watched them summon a dragon similar to Yuya's Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon. The gothic one summoned a dark dragon called Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon while the white one on a bike summoned a dragon that reminds me of Stardust Dragon, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon.
This series is getting a bit confusing now.
Thanks to Yuya's, the Yuya I know, interventions, he stopped the duel, but at the cost of the gothic one's defeat. What followed afterwards is a series of light shows, followed by the appearance of Yuzu. When she arrived, I watch as Yuya stared blankly into the sky before collapsing.
"Danna…" I made a phone call to Reiji, "its… confusing."
"I see, good work I suppose. You may report to me by tomorrow after you've sorted out everything. I want to hear every details. And one more thing, drop the Danna." The line got cut off.
I stood up automatically, revealing myself before running over to Yuya and Yuzu while pretending I just got there.
Two days after that night, Yuya has finally made a recovery. He has been in a coma induced sleep since that event. The day prior to this, I made a call to Reiji and reported about the events two days ago, in fact, I even added a few of my opinion to the mix. When I mentioned Yuya's condition, Reiji questioned about it and even addressed his concerns. Now that he has recovered, I simply gave him the good news and carried on with the day. Things should be back to normal now.
…
I was wrong.
When we witness a duel between a member of a Chinese Team and one of LDS's duellist… well it is more a one-sided brawl instead of a duel. As a fellow Chinese, I am ashamed to be called a Chinese. That… 'man', literally beat his opponent physically at any given opportunities. I then turn my gaze to the entire team, specifically, the elderly man who is in charge of the school – Ryozan Godagawa. However, things got worse when Yuya got matched up against that duellist.
Yuya actually snapped. I have never seen Yuya in this… berserk state. Not only is he in that state, he even summoned the Xyz monster from that night – Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon. While the others confronted Yuya and asked him about the monster, I glared murderously at the owner of the school.
The owner turned to my direction and felt my murderous intent. We would have continued glaring into each other's eyes had it not been for an abrupt interruption from a phone call.
"Yes?" I rudely greeted.
"Meet me at the basement of the First Stadium." The call ended just as abrupt as it interrupted the fierce stare down. I return my glare back at the Chinese man and gave him the 'I'm watching you' gesture before excusing myself from the group.
I entered the corridor and quickly bolted through the stairs and tear from the Second Stadium to the First Stadium. When I arrived, I was greeted with guards closing off the area. They allowed me to pass as per Reiji's orders. I entered and I was greeted to five people in front of me.
On the far side stood Reiji and a maroon haired duellist who soon left the area through the door. In between us is a group of three. Two of which are cloaked in a thick raincoat like mantle while the last is a girl… Yuzu? First Yuya, now Yuzu. This is getting very confusing.
No, focus. I gave the group another look and notice the red blazers on the girl. The shoulders somewhat resembles Sora's jacket. They're from Academia.
"Well, well, well, look what the cat found." I put on my calm mask and make myself known.
The group turned finally noticing me.
"A perfect timing too, it was getting a bit boring hiding out in this dimension." I slowly stride towards the group with my hands in my pocket.
"You're from Xyz," the blue haired Yuzu look alike asked rhetorically while she pulled her arm off from Reiji's grip. Their attention are now on me.
I chuckled and replied, "Dunno," as I playfully avoid the question, taunting them, "What do you think?" Reiji gave me a disapproving deadpan but played along.
"If you are from the Xyz Dimension, then Duel ME!" the girl activated her… D… Shield? It has a… sword frame for monster zone… that looked cool. But back to the girl, seems like she is the impatient and brash version of Yuzu.
"No need, I'll deal with this trash." One of the cloaked figures interjected.
"Ryusuke! Don't get in my way!" the girl yelled at the now named Ryusuke figure.
The figure pulled the cloak away revealing a blue uniform that belongs to Obelisk Blue. He had really standard blue hair that did not stand out at all and a rather normal face that did not stand out at all. All in all, he is so normal he did not stand out at all. "I insist, besides, you don't have to dirty your hands dealing with an Xyz scum." He had an ugly grin marring his did not stand out at all face.
"Oh really, well then this should be easy. In our home, there's a saying that goes all bark and no bite." I began. "Normally, when one use such an idiom, we would address that the person is only talk. But do you know, back in my dimension, there is another meaning for that idiom." I lied, and it was a play on words
"What?"
"When we use this term to address… 'puppies' like you," I pointed at the blue uniformed boy, "It has a hidden meaning that says: I am a loser, I whine a lot, so please take pity on me, pwease!" Quite honestly I have no idea what I was talking about. But apparently, he fell for the meaningless taunt.
"YOU-" he seethed.
"ME!"
"ENOUGH! I'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU NOW!" he roared and instantly activated his D-Shield, let's call their D-Pad that for now, and engaged it in Duel Mode.
Hook. Line. Sinker.
"Da- Kaichou." I reammended myself as I remember how he tell me to stop using the honorifics, "I'll handle him in no time, BRB!" I joked and was answered with a nod.
"DUEL!" we declared.
Ryusuke – 4000 5 Cards
Yuuki – 4000 5 Cards
"I GO FIRST!" well that was rude, "DRAW!" My opponent roared. Also should I remind him that that's against the rules? Ah whatever. He grinned evilly and then played the card, "I activate Continuous Spell Future Fusion!" Also he's playing with banned cards. "With this card, I can send from my deck to the graveyard Fusion Material Monsters that are listed on a Fusion Monster. The card I'm fusing is Five-Headed Dragon!"
Ah yes, Five-Headed Dragon, one of the strongest fusion monster with the highest base stats of 5000s. Had this been the old times, this card would have been strong… but now, this card is disappointingly weak.
"Because of Future Fusion, I can only special summon this card after my second turn. But then again," Yeah, I've never seen this one before, "why wait when I can bring him out at once with Dragon's Mirror." I repeated with him internally. "I remove from play, from my field or graveyard, Fusion Material Monsters on Dragon Type Fusion Monster and Special Summons it!" A mirror appeared on the field. Within that mirror, I can see five heads staring straight at me. "I banish all five dragon monsters in my graveyard to form Five-Headed Dragon! The Five divine dragons that governs the world with its iron fist, lay all who opposes you to waste with your reign! Fusion Summon! Five-Headed Dragon (Level 12/Dark/Dragon/Fusion/Effect/5000/5000)!"
A large dragon with five heads appeared. Intimidating, but not good enough.
"Now Five-Headed Dragon, ATTACK!"
Ok, this is seriously getting out of hand.
The dragon fires a combination of breath attack at me. I simply wrinkled my nose and play a card from my hand. A monster appeared immediately and shielded me from the direct attack. I whistled a tune as a smokescreen was conjured while my opponent was laughing like a maniac. As the smoke clears, my pristine shape is in full view.
"WHAT! HOW CAN THIS BE! YOUR LIFE POINTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN 0!"
"Ah, simple really, with a little bit of Swift Scarecrow!" I responded by revealing a card in my hand, "When an opponent's monster declares a direct attack, I can discard this card to negate that attack and end the Battle Phase."
"THAT'S CHEATING!"
Well look at the hypocrite go.
"Well no matter, you've only delayed the inevitable. When my turn comes your Life Points will be over." He smugly boasted.
"No my little Obelisk friend, what will happens next is me taking away your Five-Headed Dragon and then you will start singing a different tune," I confidently stated.
"Hmph, arrogant Xyz scum. There's no way you can do that," now he is getting annoying, "But whatever, I set a card and end my turn." With an evil arrogant glee.
"Finally," I sighed. I'm getting tired of this guy already, so I'll just OTK him. I pulled my card and my deck answered my desires. "When I control no monster, I can Special Summon Photon Thrasher (Level 4/Light/Warrior/Effect/2100/0)" An ethereal blue armoured being with a cleaver appeared, "Next I summon Photon Crusher (Level 4/Light/Warrior/Effect/2000/0)." A green ethereal being in green armour holding a double sided bat appeared. "Next, I overlay these two monsters to create an overlay network. Xyz Summon."
Normally, I would 'entertain' my opponents, but this opponent really is a mood killer. So my tone is flat and I had little time for entertainment.
"I Xyz Summon, Silent Honor ARK (Rank 4/Water/Aqua/Xyz/Effect/2/2100/1000)!" A huge satellite like machine appeared to my field. It floated menacingly as 2 overlay units orbit around the monster. This monster is another Numbers monster that goes by the name Number 101 Silent Honor ARK.
"Tch, what does a pitiful monster like that can do!" My opponent commented while I ignored him.
"Silent Honor Ark's effect activate. I detach 2 overlay units from this card and target 1 Special Summoned monster my opponent controls. That monster is then attached to this card as an Xyz Material."
"S-SAY WHAT!" My opponent watch in horror as the majestic five headed dragon on his field got reduced into an orb and is now orbiting around the satellite like monster. "THIS… NO! Y-YOU CHEAT! YES! YOU CHEATED!" Now that is getting very rude.
"I told you didn't I? You will sing a different tune as I take away your dragon, also… you are all bark, and no bite." I repeated the taunt, "Destroy this miserable insect." My monster complied and fired a beam at my opponent.
"NO! I WON'T LOSE TO A SCUM LIKE YOU! I ACTIVATE MY TRAP MIRROR FORCE! WITH THIS CARD, IT DESTROYS ALL MONSTERS ON MY OPPONENT'S FIELD." My opponent boomed. Not only did he break the rules, you even get the effects wrong. The true effect is it destroys all Attack Position monsters not every monsters.
The trap resolves and is followed by a rain of laser lights. My opponent laughs maniacally for the umpteenth annoying time before realizing that the monster is still on the field, unharmed.
"When Silent Honor ARK would be destroyed, I can detach 1 overlay unit to negate its destruction, so… thank you Five-Headed Dragon." I taunted yet again as my opponent got hit by the attack.
Ryusuke – 1900 (4000-2100) 3 Cards
Yuuki – 4000 3 Cards
"I'm not finished… I activate the quick spell Rank-Up-Magic Quick Chaos! I target 1 Xyz Monster I control and special summon from my Extra Deck 1 Chaos monster with the same name as the target with 1 Rank higher and uses it as an Xyz material." I picked the designated card from my extra deck slot and place it on top the monster, "Chaos Change, Chaos Silent Honor DARK (Rank 5/Water/Aqua/Xyz/Effect/1/2800/1500)." The white satellite monster enters a transformation process. Its white frame turned jet black and becomes a colossal robot like warrior holding a red trident in its left hand.
Again, I lied about the full card effect. Quick Chaos full effect is as such: Target 1 "Number" Xyz Monster you control, except a "Number C" monster; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Number C" monster with the same number in its name as that target, but 1 Rank higher, by using it as the Xyz Material. But all is well because what's important is to get the general idea of the effect right, unlike some guy. On top of that, I may have cheat with some of the cards, however I DID NOT cheat by conducting my draw phase and battle phase on the first turn like a certain Obelisk spoiled brat.
"NO! THIS! CHEATER!" Now he is in denial.
"I GROW TIRED OF THIS INSOLENCE! DARK! FINISH HIM!" Mortal Kombat style please. The Obelisk brat was silenced as he… well fainted while the attack connects.
Ryusuke – 0 (1900-2800) 3 Cards
Yuuki – WIN
I spat at the ground insultingly at the downed opponent. How unsatisfying. I turned to the Osiris Red girl who have been siting by the sidelines watching the duel between my boss with the other Academia duelist. She seemed rather absorbed into the duel.
"Forbidden Break Shot!" I heard Reiji's declaration, followed by an explosion that sends the Academia soldier flying. His Life Points hit 0.
"Well fought, Kaichou!" I complimented. He acknowledged with a nod before turning to face the Yuzu look-a-like. The bluenette then turned to my direction and examined my handiwork. "You want to have a go with this Xyz scum?"
She narrowed her eyes and analyzed me carefully before being interrupted by Reiji.
"Wait, Selena!"
"Selena?" From his tone, it looks as if they have known each other.
"Yes, she is Selena. Not Hiiragi Yuzu," Reiji stated while maintaining eye contact with the girl. I agreed with him, this isn't Yuzu. I've seen Yuzu a while ago in the Second Stadium, participating in a duel right now. On top of that, Yuzu's is a pinkette not a bluenette. "But, let's leave aside explaining why you look alike for now. Before that…"
"Who are you?"
"Akaba Reiji. Akaba Leo's… son," admitted Reiji. I could detect a tone of denial in his admittance. "This is Kyou Yuuki, my assistant." He introduced me, to which I responded with a wave as I lean against the wall, tuning out most of the conversation that follows after.
"YOU THERE!" Selena barked, snapping me back to the conversation. "DUEL ME!"
"Why?" I asked lazily. "What good do I get from duelling you?"
"You're the one who defeated our agent from Academia, aren't you? Once I defeat you, I can make Akaba Leo acknowledge my abilities!" she stated resolutely while drawing out a card from her pocket, "But my first target was complete disappointment. Now that I have found you, I don't need this anymore." She tossed the card at Reiji who caught it flawlessly. "Duel me!" She readied her D-Shield… still looked cool.
"For the record, he is not the man you want." Reiji stopped her.
"Don't lie to me! His skills and Xyz Summoning capabilities are similar to those from the Xyz Dimension!" She argued.
"Unfortunate for you, Kaichou is right. I am not from the Xyz Dimension." I sighed, "Even if I have skills like those from Xyz, however I'm not from that dimension."
"But didn't you say-"
"I've never said that I'm from Xyz from the beginning."
"Then where is he?"
"Pardon?"
"Where is the Xyz duellist who defeated out agent!" she grabbed my shirt rather forcefully. I sighed and turned to the president. His eyes screams silence.
"Duellist from the Xyz Dimension? I don't know of one." He lied coolly.
"In that case, I'll find him myself." The girl pushed me away roughly and walked away.
The grey haired teen raised his tone and spoke with authority, "If you cause a disturbance in this town, I will not be able to overlook it. Even if you did not come here on Akaba Leo's orders, if you refuse to join with me, then I'll consider you an enemy."
The conversation took a small turn as the downed duellist who lost to Reiji activated something on his D-Shield. He disappeared, followed by the downed Obelisk cheater.
"A Forced Return. Eventually, pursuers from Academia will come to bring me back." The girl said. This doesn't sound good. "When that happens, it will cause more than just a disturbance. But I won't let them catch me. If I defeat my pursuers along as well as the Xyz Duellist, Akaba Leo will have no choice but to acknowledge my abilities." She turned and walked away with finality.
"Yuuki," I turned to the teen, "I want you to keep an eye on her."
…
"Eh?" I blurted unintelligently.
Later that day… well.
I sighed for the umpteenth time that evening. Why? Because a bluenette in a ponytail is yelling at me. I lost count of it after the sixth time. Now my ears are ringing to the point where I'm about to faint.
This girl I'm following has dark blue hair tied in a pony with large yellow ribbon. Like Yuzu's hair, two light blue bangs fall on both side of her face. One simple glance will immediately tell you that she is Yuzu's twin sister. The resemblance is very uncanny. Moreover, she and Yuzu shared one more trait, and that is turning a non-lethal object into a weapon. Yuzu turned paper into a bludgeoning weapon while Selena… she turned sound into a sonic bomb. The sonic bomb is not instant, but if you stick around her long enough, the effects will start showing.
I mostly tune out her yelling and ordering in favour of thinking the happiest thing in my life… but failed ultimately.
"Are you done yet?" I sighed. She huffed and glared at me. "Trust me, I don't like doing this as much as you don't like my company."
"Then why are you doing this."
"Kaichou's orders, can't deny it." I told her, "I made a deal with him, now I kind of regretted it. Kind of. Look, we're stuck with each other for the time being, so at the very least let's just be civil, yeah?"
The Academia girl relented, "Fine, but stay out of my way."
Well at least that settles it, "Hold up!"
"What now!"
"What about accommodations?" I questioned logically and fairly.
"Accommodations?"
"You don't have anywhere to rest?" I deadpanned. From her silence, I deduced that she did not plan this far. Yeah, it's decided, she's a brash idiot like Judai. "That won't do… we'll need somewhere to rest."
"No need, I don't plan to stay here for long." She defended. "I will find him eventually."
"What if you don't find him today?" I asked, "What will you do when night comes? The worst case scenario is the fact you are a girl."
"So what if I am a girl? Are you one of those duellists that underestimate me just because I'm a girl?"
"That's not what I meant. You do realize how dangerous the streets at night can be, ESPECIALLY when you're a girl." That's true, the streets are very dangerous at night. In most cases, the victim will end up getting mugged or killed. But the worst thing that can happen to a girl, like Selena, is being raped.
(A/N: Kind of makes you wonder what Selena has been doing until the Battle Royale)
"No. Is that something I should be worried about?" she bluntly shot down my concerns.
…
Has she been living on an island… oh wait, yes she is. Academia is on an isolated island after all. On top of that, that place is a school that trains soldiers.
I sighed again but this time audibly loud.
"DAMN IT! Oh fine! First on the agenda! Find an accommodation!" I finalized in frustration as I grasp her wrist and started dragging her away.
"W-WHA- L-LET GO!" she struggle adamantly.
"We are finding an accommodation and that is final!" In fact, I know just the place. Time to pay a visit to a new friend.
One rough journey later, I arrived in front of a hotel room with Selena behind me. It took a moment of struggling to get her here. When I use my baiting technique, she immediately becomes docile. I told her that I might reveal who she is looking for and she took the bait as easy as it goes. These kids are just too gullible.
I stood in front of a hotel door and stare at a signboard hanging on top of it. On the sign writes Liáng shān pō in full Chinese, or better known as Ryozanpaku. The girl watches from a distance as I grabbed a broom and start unhinging the sign board off the wall. The board fell on to the ground causing an audible thud. I followed up with a series of rude kicks to the door mimicking a door knock.
To make a long story short, I welcomed myself in, and did the deed. I break the school's name plate in front of the students and owner. In the ancient Chinese Dynasty, Chinese Martial Artist would challenge various school by requesting. If the person is refused, they would blackmail them into accepting by jeopardizing the school's name plate. A school's name plate holds the pride and honour of the school. It is a symbolic representation of the school's strength and fame. However, when an opposing party breaks it, it show great disrespect to the school. But on top of that, it shows that the school has no place to exist in this world, an ultimate challenge to the school. This action alone will cause an uproar and would usually lead to an all-out brawl to defend their honour and for treason for this insult. How do I know all this? That's because I am a Chinese, like them, Normally, I would give them a blind eye and move on. Chinese Honour and all. However, they did the most unforgivable act and that is corrupting Yuya into becoming a monster.
My actions, as I had expected, causes an uproar among the students of the school. What happens next is a one sided massacre. Once the pawns are out, I turn to face the master who is calmly analysing my moves while he is sat at seiza position. If he thinks he will have the advantage over me just because he has seen everything then he will have another thing coming at him.
"All brawns, no brains." I insulted as I turn my gaze from the students to the master. "You're next."
"Foolish child," he stood up, "Who are you to step into my school and cause a ruckus!"
"Who am I? Funny you asked," I chuckled, "You claimed to have walk in the path of darkness. However, the darkness you walk in is only the border surrounding the light. If you desire to pursue the path of darkness this much, then I will be the one who will show you true darkness. This duel will be over on the third turn, and during that turn you will cover in so much fear that you will never touch duelling again."
I activated my D-Pad and picked out the deck for the job, Darkness.
"Hmph, arrogant whelp. Very well, I will show you the true power of Ryouzanpaku!" the bearded man stated.
"DUEL!"
Yuuki – 4000 5 Cards
Godagawa – 4000 5 Cards
"I'll go first," I declared, "First, I play the field spell The Gates of Dark World!" As I played the card and inserts it into the D-Pad, the field around us darkens. Then from behind me, a gigantic door took shape followed by a huge thunderstorms. "With this card, all Fiend type monsters gain 300 Attack and Defence."
"Fool! That's a waste of cards!" my opponent insulted, clearly he showing his inexperience despite his age.
"No, you're the fool here, they say age brings wisdom, but it seems like age decays you," I retorted wisely, "Allow me to enlighten your senile mind, by playing the spell Dark World Dealings. This spell allows us to draw 1 card and then discard 1 card." I drew a card and reveals it and then discards it. My opponent did the same but with a different card in his hand, "And now, the condition is met. I activate the effect of Sillva, Warlord of Dark World." The card in my graveyard reveals itself. "When this card is discarded to the graveyard a card effect, I can special summon this card from the graveyard (Level 5/Dark/Fiend/Effect/2300 + 300/1400 + 300)!" a huge fiend in silver feathered shoulder guards holding a blade in his right hand appeared.
"I set a card and end my turn."
"Hmph, foolish child, I draw." My opponent pulled out his card. "I activate the continuous spell Fire Formation – Tensu!" a spell card enters his field, "During my main phase, I can normal summon 1 Beast-Warrior type monster in addition to my Normal Summon. In addition, all Beast-Warrior type monster I control gain 100 Attack points!"
"With this, I play Brotherhood of the Fire Fist – Coyote (Level 5/Fire/Beast-Warrior/Effect/2000 + 100/500)." A man holding a flail like weapon appeared. A green fire wolf stood by him. "If I control a Fire Formation Spell or Trap Card, and no monsters, I can Special Summon this card from my hand! Next, I summon Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Bear (Level 4/Fire/Beast-Warrior/Effect/1600 + 100/1200)." A samurai like man holding a katana appeared. Above him, a ferocious red bear spirit roared menacingly at me. "With the effect of Fire Formation – Tensu, I can summon 1 more time, and this time I bring out Brotherhood of the Fire Fist – Dragon (Level 4/Fire/Beast-Warrior/Effect/1800 + 100/400)." Another man appeared, holding a bo staff. Several dragon slithers around his person. "Next, I overlay these two level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon Brotherhood of the Fire Fist – Tiger King (Rank 4/Fire/Beast-Warrior/Xyz/Effect/2/2200 + 100/1800)!" an elderly man in red armour appeared. Behind him stood a huge white tiger spirit.
"What is this? I was informed that Ryouzanpaku had only mastered Fusion Summon, not Xyz summoning." I commented.
"That was only in paper. I have only recently taught Fusion Summon to my students. After today's disgrace, I will have to raise my level of teaching. By teaching everyone what I have learnt today, Xyz summoning! After that, I will teach them Synchro and then it will only be a matter of time before I teach them Pendulum Summoning."
My eyes narrowed dangerously not at his ambition, but at the way he casually called his student, "Speaking of today's disgrace, what happened to that student."
"What happened to my students are none of your concerns. But if you wish to know, then I shall enlighten you… I. Disowned. Him."
I snapped.
"You disowned him…" I clenched my teeth hard as I suppressed the urge to murder this sorry excuse of a Chinese.
My opponent ignored me in favour of the duel, "Next, I activate Tiger King's effect, when he is Xyz summoned, I can set 1 Fire Formation Spell or Trap card from my deck." A card ejected from his deck and he revealed it to me. He sets the trap card down. "It would be foolish of me to attack you now, but I am prepared. Come at me."
I need no words as I pull my next card. "I activate the spell Allure Of Darkness. I draw 2 cards and banish a Dark monster from my hand." I draw 2 cards and then one of them caught my eye instantly. Oh, sweet sweet darkness. I banished the card that caught my interest. "I activate the spell Dark World Dealings. We both draw a card and then discard 1." Both of us did exactly that but there is more, "I activate the effect of Ceruli, Guru of Dark World! When this card is discarded by a card effect, I can special summon this card to your field."
A small fiend with an evil grin appeared on my opponent's field (Level 1/Dark/Fiend/Effect/100 + 300/300 + 300), to my opponent's bewilderment and disgust. "And when this card is special summoned this way, this card gains the effect of your opponent discards 1 card. Meaning, I must discard 1 card."
"Then go ahead, for it makes no difference." He proclaimed casually.
"Very well, and I will. Through 'YOUR' monster's effect, I discard Reign-Beaux, Overlord of Dark World!" I send the card into the graveyard and then a storm appeared on my opponent's field.
"What sorcery is this?" my opponent gasped.
"Oh, it's a sorcery conjured by you. For you see, when Reign-Beaux is discard from my hand to the graveyard via an opponent's card effect, I can special summon this card from the graveyard," I spoke eerily as the lightning storm hit the field, revealing a majestic fiend in all its glory (Level 7/Dark/Fiend/Effect/2500 + 300/1800 + 300)!"
"Hmph, if you are finished with your theatrics then come already."
"Oh, I will, but first Reign-Beaux will show you the true definition of despair. When he is summoned this way, I can choose to destroy all monster or spells and traps cards my opponent controls." At this declaration, my opponent gasped in horror. "That's right, Reign-Beaux, destroy his miserable monsters! Overlord Reign Storm." The fiend raises his sceptre and called down a lightning storm, destroying the monsters on my opponent's field.
The elderly man is left with nothing on his field, other than the spell and trap cards that are basically useless, unless there are monsters present.
"I've seen better Fire Fist users than this." I insulted, "Reign-Beaux, slay this miserable excuse of a human." The fiend points its sceptre at the long bearded man.
Yuuki – 4000 1 Card
Godagawa – 1200 (4000 – 2800) 3 Cards
"I'm… not done yet! I activate the effect of Tragoedia (Level 10/Dark/Fiend/Effect/? + 300/? + 300)! When I take battle damage, I can special summon this card from my hand. This card gains 600 Attack and Defence for each card in my hand. (1200 + 300/1200 + 300)"
Ah great, he delayed himself, but it makes no difference… "Makes no difference, Sillva, attack." The silver fiend lunged forward and destroys the malformation of a fiend.
"Impressive, but… wasted." My opponent used whatever little confidence he has to boast his short-lived victory, "You claimed to show me true darkness, yet you are only showing me an amateur's style of play. Are you done? Because now, I will teach you a lesson you for insulting me!"
I gave my opponent a long glare before softly wording, "No, there will not be your turn, this duel, is OVER! Trap card activate, Escape from the Dark Dimension!"
When this card is activated, the area around us shook violently much to my opponent's surprise.
"Yuuki, what is going on?" Selena called out from outside the field spell. Oh yes, I nearly forgot about her. I turn to her direction and gave her a dark scowl before the corner of my lips twitches upwards. The girl froze at the sight and I do not blame her for this, after all, what I plan to do next will be a traumatic experience for my opponent.
The quake continued, yet there is nothing happening around us. Thanks to the field spell, the only thing visible is a huge demonic door behind me and a brewing storm above us. However, the said storm dissipated at once when I played the trap card.
"W-What is happening?" my opponent repeated what Selena asked me earlier. At this, I turn back to my opponent and gave him a cold chuckle.
"Escape from the Dark Dimension, allows me to special summon one of my banished Dark monster." As I finished what I said, the seismic activity stopped. My opponent regained his footing while Selena is looking around, searching for the monster in question.
"Where is that monster you summoned," my opponent asked in Selena's stead.
I chuckled again as I look up to the sky, "Oh, he's around, you just need look further."
My opponent did as I said. He looked at a distance behind me and then he falls to his back in horror. Looks like he found the monster in question. The bluenette followed the elderly man's gaze but I halted her by grasping her arm. I look at the corner of my eyes to meet her curious yet determine gaze. She did not relent. I let go of her arm and allow her to turn. As soon as she did, she immediately grab onto my sleeves.
After all these reaction, I started to get curious myself. I turned.
Before me is a giant door, but behind the door, a black Pokeball with blue trims was the first thing that crossed my mind. However, the Pokeball slowly grow in height. It continued upwards until it reaches beyond the clouds and into the sky. It was massive, like comparing a building with an ant, with that titan being the building while us being the ant. Is this how it feels like in the Chronos boss fight in God of War 3?
"W-WHAT IS THIS MONSTER! I-ITS HUGE!" Selena's question is reasonable as she trembles while grabbing my sleeves to comfort herself.
I turned to my opponent who is on the ground. He is no longer paying attention anymore. His eyes were dead focused on the titan of a monster. I took this opportunity to introduce him this monster, "Listen well, Master of Ryouzanpaku, should I see you teaching your ways again, I will unleash Earthbound Immortal Ccapac Apu (Level 10/Dark/Fiend/Effect/3000 + 300/2500 +300) on you. So, what will it be, do you surrender?"
My opponent did not hear me. I slowly strode forward and stomp his chest. "Do. You. Surrender?" I whispered softly and dangerously.
My opponent need no words. He simply trembled and nodded.
That's all I need to know.
Yuuki – WIN
Godagawa – Surrendered
The field dissipates, so does the titan. The scene returns to the hotel. Around us were the students of the school. Judging from the amount of terror on their faces, I speculated that they have seen the monster in person. Good, that means my message is understood.
"UP!" I yelled indignantly, "Carry your miserable existence out of this city." The effects were instant. All of the Ryouzanpaku students instantly pack their belongings and left the area while some of them carried their traumatized master out.
"Good, now that the trash is taken out, we can accommodate here for the day," I said as if nothing had happened.
"Kyou Yuuki…" Selena worded out. I turned to her and notice her bravado. "Just who are you?" she asked.
I shrugged her off and simply answered, "Just an ordinary duellist, now get some rest, tomorrow, we'll pursue your target."
"W-Wait what?" the girl gasped in surprise.
"It's already bed time! Now get some rest! We can talk tomorrow morning and that's final." Seriously, I sounded like a middle age single parent…
NO! I'M STILL TOO YOUNG FOR THAT!
Quite honestly, I really hated that school for its method. So I took this opportunity to be a hero and teach them a lesson. Also, this chapter is rather difficult for me mainly due to the copy and pastes and decision I have to make when I was writing this. But for now, this will do.
