-Chapter 19-
Training Day 1
The new day has arrived. The sun rose up, starting the brand new day. As its light beamed through the window, it hit on our familiar hero's face, although it bothered him as he put the blanket over his face to hide from the light.
"Wake up, Yusuke!" A voice yelled through his blanket. He jumped out of bed just in time when he heard that yell.
"Aahh!" He jumped out.
"Oh! Are you alright?" Kuro asked.
"Yeah…I'm fine," he replied as he panted a bit. "Just surprised by your wake-up call."
Kuro giggled and smiled. "Well, I'm glad you're awake now! Please clean your bed after yourself, wash your face, and meet up with everyone outside. They're waiting for you."
"Huh? They are?" Yusuke asked.
After putting his bed neatly and washing his face, he headed outside, where Sasuke and Aiko waiting for him.
"Yo, what's up, guys," Yusuke said.
Sasuke beamed at him. "It is not 'what's up'. It is 'good morning'!"
"Oh, sorry about that. Yo, good morning, guys!" Yusuke fixed himself.
Sasuke just growled in response.
"Morning to you, Yusuke," Aiko said. "It's time to begin your first day of training, so we will begin with a morning jog!"
"Morning jog? That does not sound bad," Yusuke commented.
Aiko smirked. "Oh, you will see once we begin," Aiko said. "Readysetgo!"
She and Sasuke ran off. "Hey, wait up!" Yusuke yelled.
They jogged around the town, but Yusuke was the most tired out. He came in five minutes late compared to Aiko and Sasuke, although they were used to this stuff anyway.
"Pa…Pa…," Yusuke panted.
"Good jogging, am I right?" Aiko asked.
"I…pa…guess," he replied as he breathed in and out.
"We do this every morning, but next time, wake up earlier," Sasuke said strictly.
They headed to the dining room where the dishes were already there, waiting for them to be devoured. Yusuke's eyes sparkled for just seeing so many delicious foods on the table. It almost rivalled to the foods that his parents served at their restaurant.
"Woah!" Yusuke amazed.
"Dig in," Kuro said happily.
Without hesitation, Yusuke sat down and said his thank to the foods before he eat them (It is a custom in Japan for people to say thank you for the meal before and after they eat).
Unlike Yusuke's eating, Sasuke ate his food calmly and slowly, but surely. Suddenly, something got stuck in Yusuke's throat as he pounded himself on the chest.
"Oh! Yusuke!" Kuro noticed.
"I got this," Aiko said as he went behind him and punched on his back. A big piece of potato burst out through his mouth when he opened it, hitting on Sasuke's face, just right on the corner of his forehead….gross.
Sasuke looked at them, especially Yusuke with…unhappy face. It looked like he was going to yell until their teacher came into the room. They all settled down as they continued eating. Sasuke, with a help from Kuro, took that piece of food off from his forehead before the teacher noticed.
"I see you are enjoying our usual morning meal, Yusuke," Katsuo-sensai said.
"Yeah! This breakfast tastes great! I really love them!" Yusuke pumped his fist to show his gratitude.
"Thank you, Yusuke. I really appreciate it," Kuro said with a smile and tint of redness over her face.
"I see," the sensai stated as he pondered for a moment. "After you finish your meal, come to the dojo. I will see you there as well as you two, too."
He got up and just left the room, disappearing like a ghost. Yusuke wondered what was that all about, but for odd reason, he felt very excited in the inside. His pupils, although, felt curious like Yusuke, too, but more concerning.
After finishing their breakfast, the three young duelists headed to the dojo room. This room was the biggest room. Like any traditional dojos in Japan, it had a scroll hanging on the wall and it says in Chinese kanji characters, but in Japanese, "Believe in the Heart of your Deck."
They entered the room as they noticed three cushion mats laid neatly in a row while Katsuo-sensai was sitting on his.
"You three, sit down now," he said.
They sat on their respective mat quietly, not saying any words. Katsuo-sensai opened his eyes. "As you all know, there are five types of summoning methods in the world: Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and Pendulum."
The three listened carefully and quietly. Although, Yusuke felt weird with how he is sitting (they all sat on their lap).
"Ritual Summon allows you to summon Ritual Monster by using a Ritual Spell Card and tribute one or more monsters equal to or greater than the Ritual Monster's Level. Fusion Summon allows the duelist to fuse two or more monsters through the use of Polymerization or other kinds of Fusion cards while Synchro Summon requires using a Tuner Monster and tuning it up with other monsters to summon a Synchro Monster with the Level equal to the total amount of Levels from the Synchro Materials' Level. Then, we have Xyz Summon, which allows duelist to summon Xyz Monster by constructing an Overlay Network with two or more monsters with the same Level equal to the Xyz Monster's Rank. Unlike the other type of Monsters, Xyz Monster has its own Level known as Rank, and from my experience, there is no limit to how high a Rank can be. Finally, we have Pendulum…"
Yusuke felt uncomfortable as he scratched his feet, interrupting the lecture. Sasuke shot a look at him while Aiko looked at him with unquestioned expression. Katsuo-sensai just started at him.
"Oh! Sorry about that," Yusuke noticed.
"If you feel uncomfortable, Yusuke, you may sit the way you want to sit," he allowed.
"Really? Thanks!" Yusuke quickly changed his sitting position, now sitting with his legs crossed and his butt on the cushion mat.
"As I was saying, Pendulum Summon allows duelists to summon multiple monsters, but they must set the Pendulum Zone on their field. When the Pendulum Zones are set, the monsters that you want to summon must be between the scales in the Pendulum Zone. For example, if you have Scale 1 monster and Scale 8 monster set in the Pendulum Zones respectfully, you can only Pendulum Summon a Level 2 to Level 7 monsters. Another trick to Pendulum Zone is if a Pendulum Monster is destroyed by battle or card effect, it is sent to the Extra Deck instead, and on the next turn, you can Pendulum Summon it again from the Extra Deck. Out of all the summoning methods, Pendulum Summon is perhaps to be the strongest of all, and I believe that it is also the key to all summoning methods."
"The key to all summoning methods?" Yusuke repeated.
"Would either of you like to explain to Yusuke here what I mean?" Katsuo-sensai asked.
"Yes, Sensai," Sasuke volunteered. "With Pendulum Summon, you may summon enough materials to Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz Summon a Monster."
"Correct, Sasuke," the teacher nodded.
"Oh I see," Yusuke understood. He remembered that from his last duel with his father; he used Pendulum Summon to summon his monsters and then performed Fusion Summon with the summoned monsters.
"For today's lesson as well as Yusuke's first day of training, you all will be tested to Pendulum Summon. Let's have a little spar," Katsuo-sensai said as he stood up and activated the dark green D-Ring on his wrist, transforming it into his Duel Disk with the same color. "And I choose Yusuke to Duel me."
"What!?" All three gasped.
"Woah! Really? That's awesome!" Yusuke cheered. "Ah! I mean, I'll be honored!"
"Sensai, wait!" Sasuke said oud loud.
"Yes, Sasuke?" he asked.
"Yusuke here is still a beginner. He only became a member yesterday. I believe this lesson is little too advanced for him," Sasuke argued.
"Plus, I…don't have Pendulum Monsters or Cards," Yusuke admitted.
"Do not worry about that, Yusuke. I will lend you borrow two of the Pendulum Cards I have," he said as he took out two cards and gave them to Yusuke.
"Oh, wow! Thank you, Sensai!" Yusuke thanked excitedly.
"And Sasuke, I believe that even a beginner like Yusuke will able to handle this lesson fairly. Just like how he handled the Duel yesterday," he stated.
Sasuke just mumbled silently to himself. Yusuke and Katsuo-sensai stood few feet away from each other while Sasuke and Aiko sat and watched on the sideline near the wall.
"I will let you make the first move, Yusuke," Katsuo-sensai decided.
"Sweet! Ah, I mean, thank you, sir!" Yusuke said excitedly.
"Is it just mean, or Katsuo-sensai is very lenient with Yusuke?" Aiko whispered to Sasuke.
"It is bit off from his usual self, but I wonder why, too," Sasuke whispered back.
"Alright, let's do this thing!" Yusuke said his usual motif as he activated his blue D-Ring, transforming into a shiny blue Duel Disk.
He added the two Pendulum Cards into his Main Deck, inserted the deck in the Duel Disk as it shuffled for him automatically, and set for the Duel.
"Searching Duelist nearby….Duelist discovered. Activating D-Wave Field!" Both Duel Disks stated in computerized voice as they emanated a pulse of wave, turning the surrounding into the wave field. "D-Wave Field Initiation complete. Duel May Commence."
"DUEL!"
Yusuke vs. Katsuo-sensai: 4000 LPs
"Well, like what you said Sensai, I will go first!" Yusuke exclaimed as he drew his first five cards. His eye widened when he noticed one of them was one of the Pendulum Cards Katsuo-sensai lends him to borrow.
'It's one of the Pendulum Cards! I will hold onto this for later,' he thought. "First, I summon Tobi the Flute Komuso from my hand."
The komuso monk with a flute appeared as he blew a short melody through his flute. "Next, I set a card and end my turn."
"My turn, I draw!" Katsuo-sensai drew his card. "While my opponent controls a monster, I Special Summon my Level 1 Puff-Cloud Nimbus."
A puffy white cloud shaped of a bus formed to appear on the field. It had two cute yellow eyes, which acted as blinker light. It also had fluffy wheels like real buses.
Puff-Cloud Nimbus-Level 1, Scale 8, WIND, Fairy/Pendulum/Effect, 0 ATK, 0 DEF.
"Puff-Cloud Nimbus' second effect activates," he added. "While this card is the only 'Puff-Cloud' monster on my side of the field, I get to draw 1 card."
He added a card from the top of his Deck to his hand. "Then, I Normal Summon Level 1 Puff-Cloud Foghost!"
Another type of cloud formed, but this time was a fog. Suddenly, the fog grew two glowing orange eyes as the fog merged into one, forming small stubs sticking out that acted as its arms, and it had a tail like a ghost.
Puff-Cloud Foghost-Level 1, Scale 6, WIND, Zombie/Pendulum/Effect, 100 ATK, 0 DEF.
"I set three cards. Turn end," he finished.
"That is it? And here I thought we'll going to see something epic," Aiko sounded disappointed.
"I think this Duel has only just begun, Aiko," Sasuke said.
"Hooo, cute monsters," Yusuke commented. "But, they won't stop me! My turn, I draw!"
He drew his card excitedly and thought of a plan. 'OK, so he has two very weak monsters while three face-downs."
"I summon my Battle Gargoyle from my hand to the field!" He declared as one of his staple monsters appeared, roaring for battle. "Battle! First, I declare Tobi to attack your Nimbus! Perish Melody!"
Tobi shot a beam of musical note as it played a very soothing melody with his flute. It hit through his first monster, making it puffed and disappeared.
"Then, I declare Battle Gargoyle to attack your Puff-Cloud Foghost and thanks to its effect, it get a boost by 500!" His second monster leaped forward with its armored claw out. It slashed the fog monster, making it puffed like Nimbus as he took damage.
Katsuo-Sensai's LP: 2000
"I activate my Trap Card: Pendulum Set!" One of his face-down cards flipped up, revealing Stargazer Magician and Timegazer Magician, jumping out of the Extra Deck in blue and yellow energies respectfully.
"When two or more Pendulum Monsters are in my Extra Deck, I choose two to set my Pendulum Zones. Since I have enough number, I use my two monsters to complete the Pendulum Scale," he declared as his two monsters rose up on either side.
"Oh! So that is the reason why he summoned those monsters!" Aiko realized. "But, with those scales, sensai can only summon Level 7 monsters."
"I think he has a plan to change that," Sasuke thought aloud.
"Oh man, I only just made this turn to allow you to set your Pendulum Zones. Oh well," Yusuke laughed. "I end my turn here."
Sasuke shot another look at Yusuke, finding his relaxed, giddy self to be annoying and making him look like a dolt. Aiko didn't mind at all. Katsuo-Sensai only stared at him with diligent eyes.
"My turn, I draw," Katsuo-Sensai said as he drew a card from his Deck.
"I activate my Quick-Play Spell: Pendulum Re-Scale!" This one showed Odd Eyes Pendulum Dragon's scale decreasing from its original scale until it hit 1 while the monster itself gets shrunk as its scale decreases.
"When this card is activated, I target 1 card in one of my Pendulum Zones. Then, I sent one monster card I have in my hand to the Graveyard, and that target Pendulum Card's scale becomes equal to the sent monster's Level. I choose my Foghost and then send my Kuriboh from my hand to change its Scale from 6 to 1!"
Foghost's scale decreased to one. "With that, I can now summon Level 2 to 7 monsters simultaneously! Swing, pendulum of my soul! Teach the new generations discipline, courage, and hope for the better future! Pendulum Summon! Come out, my monsters!"
Two beams of green and blue lights popped out of the portal. "My Level 3 Puff-Cloud Cumulion and Level 3 Puff-Cloud Stratocumulbee!"
Two new monsters appeared on his side of the field. The first one was a dense, white puffy lion made of clouds. Its mane was the puffiest part, surrounding its neck. It had glowing electrical sparks, acting as its eyes. The second monster was a bee made of grayish-colored clouds with one cloud shaped of a stinger at the end of its 'tail'.
Puff -Cloud Cumulion-Level 3, WIND, Beast/Effect, 100 ATK, 0 DEF.
Puff-Cloud Stratocumulbee-Level 3, WIND, Insect/Effect, 300 ATK, 0 DEF.
"Two Level 3 Monsters? That means!" Aiko exclaimed.
"Indeed, Aiko. Our sensai is going for Xyz Summon," Sasuke said.
"Puff-Cloud Cumulion's effect is activated! When this card is Special Summoned, I can add 1 Spell Card from my Deck to my hand." One card slid out of his Deck as he obtained it and added it to his hand. "The Spell Card I added to my hand is Polymerization, and I will immediately use it!"
"What!? Sensai is not going for Xyz!?" Aiko gasped.
"Woah!" Yusuke looked fascinated as Katsuo-sensai says his summoning chant.
"Thundering lion of the cloudy world and stinger guardian of the sky, come together as one and show the discipline to the ignorant youth! Fusion Summon! Arise! Level 7! Puff-Cloud Cirrostratosaurus!"
A smooth body of clouds formed on his side of the field. As it formed, the top part became a head of dinosaur as it roared. It grew short arms with two claws sticking, fogging-like legs, and milky thin layers of fog that acted as its tail.
Puff-Cloud Cirrostartosaures-Level 7, WIND, Dinosaur/Fusion/Effect, 2500 ATK, 0 DEF.
"2500 ATK monster!? Now that is one mean looking monster!" Yusuke commented out loud.
"I activate my Puff-Cloud Foghost's Pendulum Effect!" He declared. "When I Fusion or Xyz Summoned a Puff-Cloud Monster, all Spell and Trap cards on my opponent's side of the field cannot be activated until the End Phase of this turn."
Suddenly, a thick fog surrounded Yusuke, not enabling him to see his face-down cards.
"Ooooohh, man!" He moaned.
"Battle Phase! I declare my monster to attack your Battle Gargoyle!" Katsuo-Sensai commanded his monster. His Fusion Monster got his jaw out, wide-open to munch his Gargoyle up.
"Not so fast, Sensai! I activate Tobi the Flute Komuso's effect! During my opponent's turn, I can target 1 monster I control and change its battle position. I change my Battle Gargoyle's position from Attack to Defense mode!" Yusuke's Gargoyle switched to defense mode before it got gobble up by Sensai's Fusion monster.
"I activate Puff-Cloud Nimbus' Pendulum Effect!" He followed up. "When my monster destroyed my opponent's monster by battle and my opponent did not take any battle damages, then the difference between my monster's ATK and the destroyed monster's ATK is dealt as damage to their Life Points. My Fusion's ATK is 2500 and your Battle Gargoyle's ATK is 1600, so you take 900 points of damage!"
Suddenly, Nimbus zoomed fast like a runaway bus, ramming Yusuke. However, since it is made up of clouds, it only passed through him as he took damage.
Yusuke's LP: 3100
"I end my turn here," he finished.
"Did Sensai knew that Yusuke will negate damage?" Aiko asked.
"Most likely, and he managed to inflict some damage to his Life Points," Sasuke answered. "Impressive…"
"My turn, I draw!" Yusuke drew his card with joyful smile over his face. "Katsuo-Sensai, I know this Duel is a lesson and all, but I am really enjoying this Duel! First, I thought your monster looked weak because of its low ATK points, but boy, they taught me that they can pack a punch! Although, that does not mean I am going to give up!"
Katsuo-sensai mentally smirked to Yusuke's words there. "Alright!" Yusuke said. "I tribute Tobi to summon my Level 6 Masquerade Houdinia from my hand!"
A woman in a classic female magician clothes appeared with purple masquerade masked appeared out of a smoke as it cleared away, standing on the spot where his previous monster was at.
"Now, it's time to battle! I declare Masquerade Houdinia to attack your monster!" He declared as the female magician jumped into the air toward his opponent's Fusion monster.
"Wait, what he is doing!?" Aiko yelled.
"His monster will be destroyed!" Sasuke yelled, too. "Unless…ah! That face-down card!"
"Now, I activate my face-down card! Go, Trap Card; Magic Miracle!" His face-down card flipped up. "During this Battle Phase, all monsters currently on the field must attack, including ones that already attacked!"
Katsu-sensai's Fusion roared as it entered its battling mode. "However, what's great about this card effect is that if any of my attacking monsters is a Spellcaster-type monster and since Houdinia is a Spellcaster, she cannot be destroyed by this battle and instead, your monster is destroyed! Go, Houdinia!"
Houdinia took off her top hat for a moment, sucking the Fusion monster into it with powerful sucking power. In few seconds, the monster had disappeared and Houdinia put her hat back before she bowed to Katsuo-sensai, Aiko, and Sasuke. She also bowed unexpectedly to the sliding door, noticing Kuro was nosing on the side. She blushed in response for being noticed.
"Not bad! He managed to defeat Sensai's Fusion monster," Aiko looked impressed. "What do you think, Sasuke?"
"Hmph, he's fine," Sasuke said. He did not say anything else after that.
"I'm pretty good, don't you think, Sensai?" Yusuke asked with a wink.
Katsuo-sensai gave a friendly smirk, which was very rare to see for Aiko and Sasuke. They found it to be surprised. "You Duel well, Yusuke. To be honest, I quite find this Duel with you very…enjoyable."
"Woah! Sensai find the Duel to be…fun?" Aiko asked, looking a bit disbelieved. Sasuke had the same expression, too.
"Really? Well, thanks!" Yusuke thanked him.
"Your welcome, but…" he changed back to his old mood. "Lesson is still a lesson. I activate my destroyed monster's effect!"
Suddenly, Cumulion and Stratocumulbee reappeared on his side of the field.
"What the!? When did those monsters came back from your Graveyard!?" Yusuke gasped.
"Thanks to Cirrostartosaures' effect, when it is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, I can Special Summon the Fusion Materials I used to summon it from the Graveyard to my side of the field. Now, I activate my last face-down card, Speedy Xyz!" His third and final face-down card revealed to be Gagaga Magician and Gogogo Golem in red and orange energy zooming at high speed into the Xyz Portal in the sky above. "When this card is activated, I can use the monsters I control on my side of the field as Xyz Materials to Special Summon 1 Xyz Monster. I build the Overlay Network with two revived Puff-Cloud monsters!"
Both of his monsters turned light green and dark green energies as they jumped into the spiral galaxy portal.
"Phantom of the depth, demonstrate your lesson of willpower and hope to the next generations! Xyz Summon! Rank 3! Puff-Cloud Nimbowfish!" A giant, puffy blowfish made of cloud hovered about Katsu-sensai. It was so huge that it needed to shrink itself in order to fit in the room. It had two glowing blue dots for its eye, with spiky formation around the body, acting as spikes.
Puff-Cloud Nimbowfish-Rank 3, WIND, Fish/Xyz/Effect, 2100 ATK, 0 DEF.
Yusuke awed at the sudden appearance of a new Xyz monster on Sensai's side of the field. "Nimbowfish's effect activates! During my opponent's turn, I can detach one overlay unit from this card…" One of the green comets absorbed into the monster's cloudy body. "I can inflict 200 points of damage for each Puff-Cloud monster I have on my side of the field, including ones in my Pendulum Zones! There are three currently on the field, meaning you take 600 points of damage!"
His Xyz expanded before it blew out air through its mouth, causing the cloud spikes popping out from its body. It struck on Yusuke, but since it was made of clouds, it didn't hurt him physically.
"Grgh!" Yusuke covered his face by the attack.
Yusuke's LP: 2500
"Well, I can't really do anything else, but end my turn here," Yusuke said as he completed his turn.
"My turn, I draw!" Katuo-sensai stated. "As you can see, Yusuke, it was possible for me to summon my Fusion and Xyz monsters thanks to my Pendulum Cards. Pendulum Cards or alternatively, Pendulum Monsters, have many kinds of Pendulum Effect. Pendulum Summon helps Duelists to get the right amount of material to use for Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz."
Yusuke thought the words he said there. Aiko and Sasuke thought about it, too. Sasuke was the one in deepest thought.
"Perhaps Pendulum Summon will help you to access your special Mirror Summon," Katsuo-sensai said. That made Yusuke's think even more.
He was right. With Pendulum Summon, he could summon the right material to use Mirror Summon.
"For this turn, I will just set a card and end here." He laid down one face-down. "I will warn you one thing, Yusuke."
"Um, yes?" he asked.
"Once you draw your card, it will be your last turn of this Duel," he stated.
"What!?" He gasped. Aiko also looked surprised like him while Sasuke kept his expression calm.
"I have set my victory for this Duel. If you don't draw the right card, then it already means that you lost the Duel. So, give me all you got!" He exclaimed.
Yusuke sweated like bullet, but breathed in and out to calm himself down. He slowly laid his finger on the top card of his Deck.
"Yusuke…" His mirror-self appeared.
Man, you appear either at the right timing or wrong timing, dude.
"Ah-hem, Yusuke, you're sweating nervously. Are you alright?" he asked.
"I wish, my other me, but I just don't know why, but I feel very nervous. It almost feel like…like…"
"Like the time you lost to Atsushi Kai," he stated.
"Yeah," he replied.
"Yusuke, as I watched this Duel through your eyes like mine, you were doing very well. This is no time to feel nervous or…afraid. Just believe in yourself, and most importantly believe in your Deck. Even if you did draw a card that won't guarantee a win, it never failed you before and I don't believe that your Deck will fail you here, or ever," he explained.
Yusuke gave a smirk. "You know what? You're right, my other me. I'll just put my heart into my Deck!" he declared. "My turn, I DRAW!"
He drew his card, creating an arc of light like his previous duels he had before this one. He slowly looked at the card, revealing to be the second Pendulum Card.
"This is it!?" He realized before that card and his other one shined together.
"That sparks in his eye…" Katsuo-sensai thought.
"Katsuo-sensai, I am not sure if this will make me win, but I will give it all my best!" He exclaimed happily. "I, using Scale 1 Dawn Sage and Scale 8 Dusk Knight, set my Pendulum Scale!"
On his right side, an elderly man with long gray beard and blue robe appeared. He wore big, bulky shoulder pad for each shoulder, sapphire brooch over his chest, and rest of the clothes were sky blue, but as you looked down, the shade of the color becomes darker. He also had dark blue shoes, and brown scepter that looked like a tree's trunk with blue orb tied in bunches of roots at the top of scepter. His eyes were gray color.
Dawn Sage-Level 6, Scale 1, LIGHT, Spellcaster/Pendulum/Effect, 2000 ATK, 1500 DEF.
On his left side, a young woman in a dark, dusky purple armor appeared. Her armor was slick and sharp along the edge around her waist area. The armor also came with shoulder pad, gold in color and two red dots that makes it like a head of a dragon. She had dark violet eyes, and beautiful red hair coming out over his back while a black helmet covered her head. She held a silver sword, looking more like a rapier thanks to the design of the hilt area, which was gold color.
Dusk Knight-Level 4, Scale 8, DARK, Warrior/Pendulum/Effect, 1500 ATK, 1000 DEF.
"Those two Pendulum Cards, they're Sensai's original Pendulum Cards!" Sasuke exclaimed.
"So, you managed to use those cards. Well then, let's see if you can Pendulum Summon," Katsuo-sensai said.
"Sure thing! With my Pendulum Zone set with these two monsters, I will do Pendulum Summon!" Yusuke declared.
A giant pendulum appeared above him as it began swaying with two numbers, 1 and 8 appeared below the monsters respectfully.
"Sway, pendulum of my heart! Create the arc of hope and courage for anyone and everyone who's in the slum! Pendulum Summon! Come out, my monster partners!"
Three beams of light came out of the portal. "First, new monster to introduce! Please welcome Kraken Crusher!"
This monster was a giant black squid with blue markings all over its body. The body looked like slashes, and it had two yellow eyes and its two tentacle arms were huge.
Kraken Crusher-Level 3, WATER, Aqua/Effect, 1400 ATK, 900 DEF.
Masquerade Houdinia gestured to Kraken Crusher as it waved its tentacle to happily back to her.
"Second, another new guest to the table, please meet Thorny Drago!" This one was a red and purple thorny devil lizard, with grey eyes. Its size was big or small as golden retriever.
Thorney Drago-Level 4, FIRE, Reptile/Effect, 1400 ATK, 1600 DEF.
"And last, but not least, my ace monster, the one and only…Masquerade Caped Crusader!" His ace monster appeared out of a white smoke as it posed epically like if it is on a stage.
"Wow! Yusuke, he….he Pendulum Summoned three monsters…awesome!" Aiko cheered.
"Amazing…" Kuro said as she stuck her face out to peek.
Sasuke didn't say any words as he watched. Katsuo-sensai looked strongly at Yusuke and his summoned monsters, with his arms crossed as he showed a small smirk.

Did anyone get Fire Emblem Fates for the 3DS? I am going to get my hard copy shipped this week, so I can't wait for it to be delivered here to my home! I even started writing a fan-fic for it, so if you are curious and want to check it, you may do so by going to my Profile. Leave any feedback for it, too. It helps a lot!
That is all I want to say. Also, for people who are wondering from my other Yu-Gi-Oh fan-fic, Yugioh Muikai, and whole thing about the movie crossover...trust me, it will come. There are few things I want to complete for this story before I start writing the movie crossover. We'll surely see it, so please be patient. I will let you all know any updates for it in future announcements.
Anyway, that is all for now! Sorry to leave a cliffhanger, but I will see you all in the NEXT CHAPTER!
