Author's Note: Hello, everyone. I am back writing this fanfiction because it has been a long time. Almost a month ago since the last chapter! Anyway, please enjoy!
Chapter 5 Young Love
Two days have passed since that strange Duel Yusuke had. It was a brand new day, but Yusuke was running late for his class as usual.
"Oh crap! If I don't make it, Ms. Sato will scold me again!" He exclaimed.
Meanwhile, another student from his same class was running late, too. It was his friend, Haruka!
"If I don't make it, I'll have to stand next to Yusuke! That would be embarrassing to the other girls!" She said as she ran quickly.
Wow, Haruka. That is a very kind thing to say to your friend…not.
However, something caught her attention. There was a boy who was all alone and crying.
She went up to the boy. "Hey, what is wrong? Are you OK?"
The boy looked up, tear falling down his eyes. He had a spiky brown hair, similar to Sora's hairstyle from Kingdom Hearts. His eyes were light brown.
"I dropped my Deck in the sewer hole." He sobbed.
Haruka looked through the hole, and saw a white Deck Holder. "Don't worry. I'll get it back for you."
She put her hand through the hole, and reached for the Deck Holder. For a girl, she was very brave, not complaining that her hands will get dirty for this.
"Hey! I'm a girl and all, but I couldn't just leave this boy alone!" She scowled at yours truly. "Now, almost there…"
She got the holder, and pulled up her hand out of the hole. She wiped the dirt off, and gave it back to the boy.
"Here you go." She said. "Now, just hold on to this and don't drop it next time."
"Thank you, miss!" The boy smiled happily, with a tint of blush.
A school bell rang. "Oh no! I'm late for class! Anyway, you better get to your school, too, kid!" See ya!" Haruka ran off as the boy watched her until she turned to the corner. Unfortunately, Haruka and Yusuke didn't make it.
"Mr. Kagami, how many times until you get it straight!? You should be a shame of yourself!" Ms. Sato scolded him, receiving a squek from him. She then turned her attention to Haruka.
"Miss Haruka, I'm surprised that you of all people came late today. Well, just like this usual troublemaker, you will receive the same punishment."
The scene transitioned to the two friends, standing in the hallway just outside the classroom. Haruka was holding one bucket while Yusuke was holding two buckets.
"Why me!" Yusuke moaned, struggling with carrying the buckets. "I'm surprised you are late, Haruka. This is like your first time ever."
"Just shut up. It wasn't my fault that I have to help you with studying Japanese past my curfew through CloudLine!" She argued.
CloudLine is like Skype in their world.
"But, you're so reliable." Yusuke said, making puppy eyes at her.
"Forget about it. Next time, you do it on your own." She said, pouting as she turned her face away from him.
Several hours later, the school dismissal began. "Seriously! Why do I get extra homework!?" Yusuke complained as he carried his backpack full of extra homework. It looked like he was going to camp or something.
"Well, this is a reason why you should come to school early." Haruka stated.
Yusuke got a sly grin. "Hey, Haruka. Could you please help me with these!?"
He showed his puppy eyes again, and talked like a little girl, begging her.
"NO!" She yelled. She walked away from him until she was stopped and noticed the same boy earlier.
The boy noticed and waved at her. "Hi!"
"Um, hey! It's you." She said.
"Eeyup! Thank you so much for helping me back then. I really appreciate it." He said happily.
"Your welcome." Haruka replied.
"So, um…Would you…" He looked down, his face turning red and twirled around his food on the ground.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"Woud you…please be my girlfriend!?" He shouted.
A long silence occurred between them. Yusuke stopped, too as the wind flew by.
"What!?" She gasped.
"Eh!?" Yusuke gasped.
"Knew it." I said.
"Yes, is that OK?" He asked, blushing.
"Ah…ah, that's…um. I…" Haruka was speechless.
"Well, Haruka, it looks like you're one lucky gal!" Yusuke laughed happily.
"What!? I!" She blushed.
The boy went up to him with an angry eye. "Hey you!"
"Huh? Me?" Yusuke pointed to himself.
"Yeah, you! You leave my darling alone!" He yelled.
"Darling!?" She gasped even more.
"Sorry kid. It is just that the whole situation right now is amusing and funny." He chuckled.
Wow, Yusuke. You really know how to support your friend.
"I'll beat you…in a Duel to prove how serious I am!" He huffed angrily.
"Ok, kid. You got a deal!" Yusuke agreed excitedly.
A minute later or two later, they were at a park.
"Is this really necessary?" Haruka sighed.
"I'll show you how serious I am for my relationship!" The boy said determinedly, pointing at Yusuke.
"Ok! Let's do this thing!" Yusuke proclaimed, saying his signature phrase.
They activated their D-Ring, transforming into their respective Duel Disk.
"Searching Duelist nearby. Duelist Found. D-Wave Field, activate!" Both Duel Disks said in a computerized voice. "Dueling Commence!"
"DUEL!"
Yusuke vs. Shota: 4000 LPs.
"So, your name is Shota. Nice to meet you, Shota. My name is Yusuke. You can go first." Yusuke said.
"Thanks. Uh, I mean, whatever! I'll make the first turn!" He began with his five cards.
He looked at his cards with a serious look on his face before he chose his first one. "I summon Kid Knight in Attack mode!"
A chibi blue knight appeared on his side of the field. He wielded an oversized sword, which it looks too heavy for the little knight to carry.
Kid Knight-Level 2, EARTH, Warrior/Effect, 1200 ATK, 100 DEF
"Then, I special summon Kid Archer in Defense mode!" A chibi archer in green robes, carrying a bow and arrow too big for it, appeared next to Kid Knight.
Kid Archer-Level 2, WIND, Fairy/Effect, 500 ATK, 400 DEF
"Thanks to its effect, I can Special Summon it when I have another Kid monster on the field and it can direct attack, but this is my first turn, so it will be against the rule if I were to do that."
"Ahhh, Kid Deck, eh. Pretty cool and cute." Yusuke commented.
"They're not cute! They're strong!" Shota complained. "Anyway, I end my turn."
"OK! Now it is my turn! I draw!" Yusuke drew his card enthusiastically. "Here I go, Shota! I summon my monster, Battle Gargoyle!"
The familiar gargoyle roared when it appeared on the field. "Then, I play the Equip Spell: Pierce Sword and equip it to my gargoyle!"
This Spell card showed a silver sword with glowing yellow aura. Gargoyle held the sword. "Now, I declare my monster to attack your Kid Archer!"
Battle Gargoyle, wielding the sword, swooped down on Archer. "At this point, his effect is activated, which increases his Attack by 500 points!"
His monster's ATK increased to 2100 before it slashed Archer in half. The chibi archer cried before it exploded.
"Kid Archer!" Shota shouted, covering his face from the wind.
"Now, the effect of Pierce Sword is applied! When the equipped monster destroys a monster in Defense mode, it inflicts pierce damage!"
Battle Gargoyle shot a beam of electricity from the sword, shocking Shota directly.
"Aaaaaahhhhh!" He screamed.
Shota's LP: 2300
"I set one card and end my turn." Yusuke finished as Battle Gargoyle returned to his side and his Attack returned to normal. "What do you think, Shota? Am I good or what?"
He stood back up with angry face. "That's it! No more Mister Nice Guy!"
He drew his card angrily. "I Normal Summon Kid Magician!"
A chibi magician appeared out of a white smoke, wearing oversized red robes and wizard hat, which she held up when it almost dropped from her head. She carried an oversized wooden staff.
Kid Magician-Level 2, DARK, Spellcaster/Effect, 300 ATK, 800 DEF
"Then, I play the Spell Card: Monster Reborn! Come back, Kid Archer!" His chibi archer returned from the Graveyard.
"Three Level 2 monsters. What would he do with them? Unless…" Haruka thought.
"With my three Kid monsters, I construct the overlay network with these three!" Shota declared as a spiral galaxy-like portal opened in between them.
His three monsters turned into black, green, and purple energy respectfully, and they swallowed into the galaxy portal. Energy released out of the portal as something came out of it.
"Berserker who smashes everything in my way, come out and play! Xyz Summon! Rank 2! Kid Wrecker!"
A huge shadow of some giant appeared, but it revealed to be really a chibi berserker, wearing a gold armor, carrying a spike ball and chain too big for it.
Kid Wrecker-Rank 2, FIRE, Warrior/Xyz, 1500 ATK, 1000 DEF
"Wow! So, that's an Xyz monster!" Yusuke awed enthusiastically.
Shota ignored his comment. "I activate Kid Wrecker's effect! I detach all of its overlay units to destroy all other cards on the field!"
"Say what!?" Yusuke exclaimed.
Kid Berserker used its spike ball, throwing it at Gargoyle and the set card as the chain hold the spike ball.
"Oh man!" Yusuke moaned.
"Battle! Kid Berserker will direct attack you! Hard Knockout!" His Xyz hit Yusuke with its spike ball.
"Dooooh!"
Yusuke's LP: 2500
"Yusuke!" Haruka shouted worryingly.
"Ha ha! Kick that, you big meanie! Soon, I'll have my girl!" Shota claimed excitedly.
"Your girl!?" Haruka questioned.
Yusuke got up, laughing.
"Hey, what's so funny!?" Shota scowled.
"Sorry, but I'm just having so much fun in this Duel! None to mention that I am losing to a kid! Ha hah ha!" He laughed.
"Hey, I am not a kid! I am a big, strong man!" Shota claimed.
"Whatever you say, Shota! It is my turn! I draw!"
Yusuke looked at the card he drew, which revealed to be a Spell card that shows a magician appearing out of a magic box as rainbow released out of the box.
"Sweet! It looks like I got a good draw! I play the Spell card, Magic Box!" Yusuke activated his Spell card.
"Magic Box! That would mean…!" Haruka's eyes widened.
"With this Spell card, it allows me to Special Summon one Spellcaster monster from my hand. And, I choose my one and only, Masquerade Caped Crusader from my hand!"
His ace monster appeared out of the magic box, making cool pose like if he is on a stage.
"Then, I Normal Summon Dark Spark!" The little, electric ball appeared. "I use its effect! When it is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, I can target one monster on your side of the field and reduce its ATK to zero!"
Dark Spark shot an electric ball at his Kid Wrecker, paralyzing it as it decreased its Attack to zero.
"Hey! What's going on!?" Shota complained.
"Battle! I declare Masquerade Caped Crusader to attack! Magic Beam!" His ace monster show a rainbow energy beam, blasting Kid Berserker.
"Nnnnoooooooo!
Shota's LP: 0
Yusuke WIN.
The monsters and the field disappeared. Shota looked down, all depressed. Haruka went up to Yusuke.
"Yusuke, that was little too overboard even for him! He is just a kid!" She scolded him, but Yusuke ignored her and went up to Shota, giving him a hand.
"Hey, Shota. Cheer up, man." Yusuke said softly.
Shota sniffed his nose. "But, I lost. You're just too strong!"
"It's alright, little dude. Everyone loses sometimes." He said.
"Well, I'm..I'm going to get stronger and get you back later!" He ran away.
"Shota!" Haruka yelled, but he was long gone.
"Yusuke." She pouted.
"Don't worry about him, Haruka. He will be fine." He smiled.
Later that day, Shota sat on the low hill near a river. "I can't believe I lost to that big meanie! Oh, this is so frusting!"
That's "frustrating", kid.
"I'm not a kid!" He yelled as a crow flew by. Then, something caught his attention. He saw something shining in the grass.
As he was curious, he walked up to it, looking closer at it, which revealed to be two cards.
"Woah! I found two cards!" He praised in joy as he picked them up from the ground. "Hmmm, I never seen these two before…"
His eyes turned blank as two cards glow in dark aura.
The time was afternoon. The sun was setting down as crows flew by, crying.
"Man, that Duel was so much fun!" Yusuke said, feeling enjoyed.
"Too bad it wasted your time to do your homework." Haruka reminded him.
"Oh yeah! Crap! I better do it ASAP! See you tomorrow, Haruka!" He said, running away like if he was in a marathon.
"Geez, Yusuke." She chuckled as she turned to the other direction, heading to her house.
Meanwhile, Shota followed Haruka as he watched her like a sly fox.
Yusuke came approaching his home until his Smartphone ranged, indicating that he got a message. "Huh? Who could it be?"
He opened it up, and read the message. "If you want to see your friend again, meet me by the river!"
Yusuke, after leaving his heavy backpack at his home, arrived to the location. He noticed there was nobody around, and strangely quiet.
"Nobody's around." He said.
"I wouldn't count on it." His mirror self said.
Suddenly, Shota came out of nowhere like a ghost.
"Woah!" Yusuke gasped. "Oh, it's you, Shota. What's up."
The boy looked at him furiously. "You…Duel me!"
He activated his D-Ring, transforming into his Duel Disk.
"You want a rematch already? As much as I want to, I need to look for my friend, Haruka and I need to do my homework." He said.
"Yusuke, I believe that the culprit is this boy." His mirror-self stated.
"Wait, what!?" He asked as if he was talking to himself.
"Duel me! I will prove it to you this time that I am a strong adult, not a kid!" Shota shouted as he burst in strange aura.
"Woah! What's going on!?" Yusuke surprised.
"Enough talk, Yusuke! This boy is possessed by a Mirror monster! Activate your D-Ring!" His mirror-self commanded him.
"OK!" Yusuke agreed as he activated his D-Ring, transforming into his blue Duel Disk.
"DUEL!"
Yusuke vs. Shota: 4000 LPs.
"I'll go first!" Yusuke said as he drew five cards. "I Normal Summon Iron Chestnut in Defense mode!"
A little chestnut with a beady blue eye and shell made of iron with spikes appeared on his side of the field.
Iron Chestnut-Level 1, EARTH, Plant/Effect, 0 ATK, 2000 DEF.
"This card allows me to Normal Summon in defense mode. I throw two cards, facing down and end my turn." Yusuke wrapped up his first turn.
"Be careful, Yusuke. I sense a strong wave energy emanating from that boy's Extra Deck. It must be a Mirror monster." His mirror-self warned him.
"My turn! I draw!" Shota drew his card strongly.
"I play the Continuous Spell: Kid Unite!" The Spell card revealed three Kid monsters doing the famous three musketeers' cheer. "As long as this card remains face-up, I can discard up to three cards to Special Summon a number of Kid monsters from my Deck equals to the number of cards I discarded. I discard three cards from my hand to summon Kid Knight, Kid Archer, and Kid Magician!"
His three Kid monsters came as a trio.
"Is he going to Xyz Summon Kid Berserker again?" Yusuke questioned.
"Now, I will build the overlay network with these three monsters!" His three Kid monsters turned into energy as it swallowed into the galaxy portal. "Xyz Summon! Emerge! Rank 2! Kid Berserker!"
The chibi berserker in gold armor appeared out of the portal, roaring for battles. "Now, I detach all of its overlay units to destroy everything on the field!" His Xyz monster absorbed all of its red comets orbiting around it before it began trashing around like a wild man.
"Eeeeee!" Iron Chestball cried before it exploded.
"Oh crap! I am open!" Yusuke exclaimed.
"However, I won't direct attack…not yet! I use my Kid Berserker as a material for Mirror Summon!"
A mirror portal appeared out of space behind Kid Berserker, swallowing the chibi in the armor into it.
"Mirror, mirror, hear my wish! Show everyone that I am a strong, brave adult! Destroy all the bullies that I am stronger than them! Mirror Summon!" The mirror portal shone in bright yellow light as a giant monster appeared out of it.
This monster was wearing a gold armor, but unlike its chibi counterpart, its body was huge. Its eye glow in red as it wore a helmet fit for its head size. It carried a bigger spike ball with a chain to the end. It roared loudly with 2000 ATK.
"Meet my new monster, Adult Berserker!" Shota shouted.
Adult Berserker-Shard 2, EARTH, Warrior/Mirror 2000 ATK, 1500 DEF.
"Woah! A second Mirror monster! Or should I say the third one since I own one?" Yusuke questioned to himself.
"Enough chattering to yourself! I declare Adult Berserker to direct attack! Rage Burst!" Shota declared.
His Mirror monster threw the big spike ball at Yusuke, aiming at him.

Author's Note: So, what do you think of the new "Kid/Adult" Archtype Deck? What will happen to our hero, Yusuke!? I want to give credits to OPFan37 for the new archtypes. Basically, the archtypes based on enemies in a video game. Please check his Yu-Gi-Oh fanfiction called "Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-VOC." It is his own retelling of the current Yu-Gi-Oh anime series, with his own OC and twists. It is far more ahead in story development, and it is very good, too.
Also, if you want to read other fanfictions that I make, please check them out in my profile. I have Yu-Gi-Oh Muikai, which introduces another summoning method called "Muikai Summoning." It is more developed because, well it has more chapters and the main character is a female, unlike the classic standard way of thinking for gender role as main protagonist. I'm also working a lot (and very lately) my own fanfiction for RWBY. It is based on a popular cartoon web series inspired by anime style, created by Roosterteeth and the one who thought of it, Monty Ohm. You may have heard of him because he is a great animator, but unfortunately passed away some months ago at a young age. This fanfiction is a retelling of the series with my own OC, Ellix Knight, who transported to the world of RWBY and go on an adventure with Team RWBY through the world's main storyline with new mysteries and original villians, which center around him and the weird black gauntlet that he wears and stuck on him at all time. If you like action, mystery, or the series itself, please check that out. Lastly, I also have my own Ace Attorney fanfiction. This one takes place 3 years before the main character, Phoenix Wright took on his first case and becoming a lawyer. The main character's name is Hawk Veritas, a rookie defense attorney with keen intellect and sharp eyes for small detail in the evidence in order to turnabout the case, so his client be proven not guilty. Please check any of the fanfictions I just said.
Well, sorry for the long talk, but I will see you all...in the NEXT CHAPTER, which won't be too long to wait, hopefully. See you all next time.
