From the balcony, two pair of silver eyes stared down at the prohibited duel, revealing that it was a female and male of the same age group. Twins, wearing the standard uniform. The female's hair length reached pass her waist, nothing special, only had two ribbons, both stationed separately at the side of her head. In her right arm, her brother's arm was wrapped by it while the other held a plushie, an unfamiliar one at that. The sister decided to speak, her voice sounding soft and innocent.

"Brother.. should we do something about this..? Maybe let the Task Force know..?"

She suggested, only to receive a pat on the head, which she enjoyed bring a smile onto her face. Instantly forgetting the duel for a moment. He reverted his gaze at his little sister, giving her a gentle smile.

"No need, those mavericks can enjoy their brawl like the misfits they are truly are. We have more important matters to attend too. Let's go, Yoshino."

"Y-You're right, I am sorry brother!"

The two left the balcony, continuing their walk down the hallway passing by, was a gentleman with the same uniform. His hair was short, evenly split between, light blue on the right, and black on the left. Within that moment, time felt slowed down as the both males passed by, giving each other ice-cold glare. Now a single word was spoken between the two, as they both continued onward to their destinations.

[LP: 4000 - Johan]

[LP: 1500 - Takashi]

Takashi struggling to stand on his two feet, his face giving out a serious expressing. His teeth gritting, which shows his frustration towards the match. Instantly drew his card, and activating an action card. Which he picked up secretly after crashing against the stone ground after the Phantom Hit ability caused by Johan.

"I draw, and active the action card, Penalty Draw!" - Takashi.

"Ha! I should've known you picked up a card while you were squirming on the floor like the trash you are." - Johan.

The effect kicked in. His arm absorbed by a blue-lined electrical surge, his face showing signs of pain, only to draw two cards from his deck.

"Penalty Draw allows me to draw any number of cards, but in doing so, I inflict 500 damage, per card, at myself." - Takashi.

[LP: 1500/500 - Takashi]

"You are truly an idiot, all I have to do is defeat you with a regular card effect or action card, and bingo!" - Johan.

"He's right, that was a reckless move on Takashi's part." - Yurika.

"What is he aiming for? He drives himself this far away from victory. - Shizuka.

After her words echoed in the battlefield, Takashi finally let out a smile. The winds circling around his body, like a flowing river. He was in control of the wind, revealing his power despite his odds.

"Now! Let me show you why I am able to stand with the Yosenju! Come, Johan! I decided to release the beast and devour you with my might!" - Takashi.

"Yes.. Yes.. YES! Now that is the Takashi I know! The Beast within the Winds! Show me, Taka! Show me how the deck is meant to be played!" - Johan.

"Yurika.. I am scared.." - Shizuka.

After her words, Yurika comforted Shizuka by holding her, making sure she felt safe for what is to come.

"I set the Pendulum Scale! I Scale 3 with Shinchi L and Scale 5 with Shinchi R!" - Takashi.

With his announcement, two energy pillars appear at both his left and right side, cylinder-shaped. Revealing two structures, both wearing demon mask, as the numbers label both of them. Shinchi L wields 3 and Shinchi R wields 5.

"Now I can pendulum summon monsters within the level 4 range! That is not all! Now, I activate Shinchi R's effect! Scale up now!" - Takashi.

Through his words, it obeyed as the scaling number for Shinchi R increased rapidly, and stopped at 11.

"Now crumble! I can pendulum summon monster from 4 through 10 in level! With this, I will pendulum summon, Yosenju Misak to the field!" - Takashi.

The portal in between the pendulum zones opened up as energy rained down from the heavens, crashing onto the field. Through his calling, a beast wearing traditional clothing appeared, wielding a large cleaver, roaring at Johan, as he begun to laugh due to all the excitement.

Misak:

[ATK/DEF] 2300/200

"Yeeees! Taka, you finally found your roots once again! Now I don't have to hold back on you!" - Johan.

"Misak's effect activates! Destroy Armor Master! Gust Slash!"

The monster rushed towards Armor Master, with insane force, leaving a small crater on the stone ground. Swinging the cleaver at it, as Armor Master raised its arms. Blocking the attack, struggling through the dilemma, Shura came it's aid pushing Armor to the side, taking the hit for it. Being cut through as it screamed in pain before it exploded.

"What?! How!?" - Takashi.

Without realizing it, Johan was not at his original spot, he was ontop of a rock, revealing an action card in play.

"Action Magic! Buddy System! This allows me to rotate the effect or attack to another monster on my side of the field, and I chose Shura!" - Johan.

"Oh yeah!? Then you will have more coming at ya then Jon!" - Johan.

Instantly he slammed three cards at once, summoning the Kama Brothers to the field. Generating more wind than usual thus each summoning, the containment field started to become unstable due to the energy being generated in the match. Yurika just took noticed of it, as she rose her hand at one of the students.

"You! Call in the Task Force, we need to shut down this duel right away! The containment field will not hold!" - Yurika.

The random student nodded in agreement as he followed Yurika's command and ran off in search of help. Returning her eyes back to the duel, worrying what has happened to Takashi's attitude.

"I normal summon Kama #2, due to its effect! I can normal summon another Yosenju to the fray! Chain Summon! Kama #3! Once more with Kama 3's effect, Chain Summon Kama #1!" - Takashi.

Kama #1/#2/#3:

[ATK: 1600/1800/1500]

The beast-warrior trio took place on the field along with Misak, their mouths opened in smiles, showing off their fangs. As they draw out their weapons, as Kama #1 rushed towards Armor Master. Using its weapon, the sickle, to generate wind and was in close range to unleash it.

"Kama #1's effect kicks in! Gust Howling!" - Takashi.

Johan wouldn't allow it, jumping off the rock in time the moment Kama #1 rushed towards his monster. As the Goddess of Luck blessed him, picking up an action card and activates it in time to save Armor Master.

"Not so fast! Action Magic! Destru-!" - Johan.

"You fool! Like I would let you! Counter Trap! Yosenju Secret Technique! Kama #2 destroy it! Gust Slash!" - Takashi.

Instantly, Kama #2 teleport over where Johan was located, swinging it's katana at his card, cutting it in half. An explosion appeared between the two, causing Johan to hit the ground brutally. As he watched Armor Master being devoured in the winds, disappearing in front of him. Returning to the Extra Deck.

"ARMOR MASTER! NO!" - Johan.

"With Secret Technique, I can negate any spell and trap as long as a Yosenju is on my field! With Kama #1's effect in play, you are left wide open." - Takashi.

"TAKASHI! I WON'T FALL SO EASILY YOU BASTARD!" - Johan.

"Shut it, now sick 'em! Playtime starts now! Attack him directly Kama #2!" - Takashi.

The flames begun to rise due to the effect of Fire Formation - Tenki, the wasteland was beginning to scorch itself with the red flames. Increasing their attack stat by x100 for each beast-warrior type monster on Takashi's field. Without having time to cool down from the heat, Kama #2's steel blade rushed downwards attempting to damage Johan. Instinctive, he rolled to the side to evade the attack, forcing himself up, enduring the pain, as he took off to find an action card. During the moment of his evasion, Kama #2 gave chase, while he overheard Takashi commanding Kama #1 and #3 to participate in the chase.

Kama #1/#2#3:

[+ATK: 2000/2200/1900]

"Attack directly!" - Takashi.

With luck on his side once again, Johan picked an action card in time during his escape. Not given time to activate it, Kama 2's blade sliced off a part of Johan's shirt. Jumping back to avoid any internal damage, as he noticed his life point counter draining within his grasp.

[LP: 4000/1800 - Johan]

Gritting his teeth in angry, giving a killing- intent expression towards Kama #3 as it threw the dagger at him. Johan quickly activated the action card in time, catching the dagger with his teeth. While Kama #3 followed along, caught off guard with Johan, he used the dagger being held in his mouth and stabbed it directly into Kama #3's neck. Afterwards, it fell to the ground lifeless as it's body disintegrated into data. Johan's smile was truly a sight, a smile of a madman who enjoys danger.

"Action Card.. Healing Misdirection.. Allows me to reflect the attack back, while gaining 200 life points, at the monster that attacked me direc-." - Johan.

Kama #1:

[+ATK: 1900]

Angered by his fallen brother, Kama #1 sudden took Johan by surprise while in the middle of his explanation. Swung it's sickle at him, with his reflexes he jumped back but not in time. The sickle's blade gazed Johan's right eye, as blood splashed onto the ground. Damaging his life points along with his face, as a trail of blood leaked from Johan's right socket. He was panting heavily from the movement he has done to avoid any further damage.

[LP: 2000/100 - Johan]

Delthea gave out a troubled maiden's scream as she witnessed for the first time in her life-spam, blood. From the person who vowed to protect her in their childhood. The crowd began to gossip in fear of what they are viewing, Duel Monster have taken a turn and is now being questioned if it is safe to participate in Action Duels.

"Misak.. You are up next, let's take this one home buddy.." - Takshi.

Misak:

[+ATK: 2600]

The crowd grew quiet as they watched Misak begun taking its first step, and instantly vanished. As Delthea begun to shed tears from what is to come.

"STOP THIS! JOHAAAAAN!" - Delthea.

"TAKASHI! DON'T DO THIS! IT'S INHUMANE!" - Shizuka.

Hoping that her words would reach his eyes, but it was no use. They lost Takashi they personally knew, tears began to flood both Shizuka's and Delthea's eyes. Time slowed down the moment Misak reappears in front of Johan after taking a hit from Kama #1. Swinging the cleaver at him, with tremendous force in attempt to butcher him.

- Shizuka's View -

No.. This can't be happening.. It can't be, how could Takashi go so far out of his morals. He is a good guy! I know he is from what I have seen so far, maybe I don't know him, maybe I don't truly know my friends after all. I decided to call out his name once more with all my courage, only to pray it works!

"TAKASHHHHI! STOP IIIT! YOU HAVE GONE TOOOO FAAAAR!"

No use.. Everything felt so slow, it's like time stopped itself for me to agonize within the moment. This isn't the duel monsters people were talking about for the past few days, I knew it was a mistake the moment I stepped into this school. Takashi only did this to protect me from dealing with someone who was a complete jerk to us. I don't want this anymore, no more! This has to stop! I forced myself to get up and run toward the containment field only to be glomped from behind by Yurika. Forcing me to stay put so I wouldn't get hurt.

- Duel View -

Johan was able to dodge in time, along that course of action, he was blessed with another action card. Once activating, his body was able to move with high agility, charging towards Takashi, while Misak gave chase.

"Action Magic! Phantom Hit! It's over Takashi!" - Johan.

"Bring it on!" - Takashi.

"NO! STOP JOHAN! THIS IS TOO MUCH!" - Delthea.

After her screams yelled out, Takashi was able to activate a action card he kept hidden along the way, giving him heightened agility. Rushing over towards Johan, it was Phantom Hit. Once within range, the both launched their fists at each others. The match is at it's end, revealing the victory within that moment. Until, clashing down in between the two in their fight, as energy particles shaped in fractured glass fallen. The person used excessive force to break through, grabbing both their fist in time, as their winds clashed against each other, creating a disruptive wave. Afterwards, the air seems clear as day, while the holograms begun to fade into oblivion bit by bit.

The boy with blue and black hair reappeared onto the surface, Shizuka and Delthea in shocked with the amount of power he had. Misak's cleaver was in range as it swung it as the boy but disintegrated into data before even touching him, the containment field shattered quickly and everything reverted back to normal. Only a few collateral damages were made, but their bodies in horrible shape, instantly they collapsed onto the floor. Giving him the okay to release their fist from his grasp, the two boy collapsed onto the floor, unconscious due to overextending their body's limits without having the Protocol authorized. Their friends came to their aid with tears, as the boy sighed from all the commotion.

"What a mess you guys caused here.."
