Alex was studying his deck, he knew the DMH's worst was still to come.
"I know that me and my friends can defeat the DMH, and I know we will" said Alex
Alex continued to look through the cards when he noticed a specific card.
"Huh, oh it's this Kuribot card that Kaz gave me" said Alex
Thomas arrived later that day.
"Hey, Alex, follow me, there's something you're gonna wanna see" said Thomas
Alex followed Thomas to an alleyway, they found a guy that had been knocked unconscious, he had light brown, spiky hair, a purple T-Shirt and light jeans, his duel disk had been smashed and his deck had been scattered.
"What happened?" asked Alex
"I have no idea, over the past week, people have reported a mysterious duellist that has been challenging people to duels and smashing their disks if they win, some of the people who this guy beat also mentioned they took all their Duellist Points and their rarest card" said Thomas
"You think it was DMH?" asked Alex
"I know it was" said Thomas
Later that day, Alex and Thomas arrived at Thomas' home, it was a small apartment building with a big pile of clothes in the corner, hardly enough room to do anything.
"The DMH have never done something this underhanded, what's going on?" asked Alex
"I don't know" said Thomas
"Do you know anything else?" asked Alex
"Nothing" said Thomas
At the DMH HQ.
The boss was having a drink when one of his members approached. When the bosses right hand man tried to stop him, he pushed him away.
"Sir, I have something to show you" said the member
"What is it Philippe?" asked the boss
Philippe tossed a bag onto the floor in front of the boss, inside were some of the rarest cards in all of duel monsters, Black Luster Soldier, Buster Blader etc.
"Where did you obtain these?" asked the boss
"From no names who own good cards, I duelled them all and now I have nearly as much points as that Alex, I would like to request to face him" said Philippe
"Very well, he's yours" said the boss
"Yes sir, and when I beat him, I shall take his rarest card, Jinzo" said Philippe
That night, the group were hanging out near New Domino Pier. When Philippe arrived
"Who are you?" asked Alex
"I am Philippe, the baddest member of the DMH" said Philippe
"What are you doing here?" asked Thomas
"I am here to challenge you, and when I beat you, I shall take your rarest card and all your duelist points, just like I have with all the others" said Philippe
"So you're the one that's been doing it" said Alex
"Yes, now, are we going to duel or not?" asked Philippe
"No" said Alex
"No?" asked Philippe
"I only duel against duelists, anyone who does what you do, they aren't a real duelist, they're just crooks" said Alex
"If you refuse to face me then you're not a duelist either, you're a coward" said Philippe
"You can call me whatever you wish, but it won't make me change my mind" said Alex
"Then maybe this will" said Philippe
Philippe snapped his fingers and members of the DMH surrounded them, they grabbed Emily and Bethany and left.
"You want to see those 2 again, you will duel me, meet me at the junk yard in 1 hour, or you will never see them for as long as you live" said Philippe
Philippe left.
"Guess I have no choice" said Alex
Alex, Thomas and Rick arrived at the junk yard. They saw Philippe at a hologram system, Emily and Bethany were tied to chairs in a glass tank with a pipe attached to it.
"Alright Philippe, I'm here" said Alex
"Good, now take your place on the hologram system" said Philippe
Alex did as instructed.
"Now, before we start, let's go over the conditions" said Philippe
"If I win, you release Emily and Bethany and you return the cards and duelist points you took" said Alex
"Yes, but if I win, I get your duelist points and your rare and powerful Jinzo" said Philippe
"Very well" said Alex
"There is just one more thing, those 2 girls are locked inside that tank, and it automatically locks from the inside, so you can't open it, every time you lose life points, that container will fill with water" said Philippe
"What?" asked Alex
"You heard me, but luckily, there is a way to get them out, a device that administers a high pitched whistle is inside the tank and will activate when my life points reach zero, beat me and that's how they go free, now let's begin" said Philippe
Both players drew 5 cards.
"Let's Duel This" said Alex
"I'll go first" said Philippe
Philippe drew his card.

"I attack Red Gadget with my Dawnbreak Gardna" said Philippe
Dawnbreak Gardna charges at Red Gadget.
"I activate my trap card, Scrap-Iron Scarecrow" said Alex
A scarecrow made out of wooden planks, a football helmet and a hairdryer appears in front of Red Gadget and shields it from Dawnbreak Gardna's attack.
"What?" asked Philippe

"What just happened?" asked Philippe
"Sorry, but did you not know of my Stronghold's power? When I have Green Gadget, Red Gadget and Yellow Gadget in play, my Stronghold's ATK Points become 3000" said Alex
"Oh no" said Philippe
"And since you attacked a monster that was too powerful, Stronghold..." said Alex
Stronghold looked down at Alex, as if he was communicating with him.
"...destroy his Dawnbreak Gardna" said Alex
Stronghold nods, when Stronghold faces Dawnbreak Gardna, the 3 gadgets jump into gear slots on Stronghold's chest.
"Attack, Steel Gear Crush" said Alex
Stronghold strikes down Dawnbreak Gardna with a powerful punch.
Philippe's LP (8000-1500=6500)
"It's still my turn, and I can make that moving fortress have 0 attack again, Gagaga, destroy Yellow Gadget" said Philippe
Gagaga prepares to destroy Yellow Gadget.
"I activate Scrap-Iron Scarecrow" said Alex
The same scarecrow from before stops Gagaga's attack.
"What? But you already played Scrap Iron Scarecrow" said Philippe
"When I use Scrap-Iron Scarecrow, I can place it face-down so I can use it again" said Alex
"I set one card face-down and end my turn" said Philippe

A mirror suddenly appears in front of Gagaga Gardna, he uses it as a shield.
"So your Stronghold's attack target is changed to my Cyber Shadow Gardna" said Philippe
"Oh no, and when Cyber Shadow Gardna is attacked, it's attack points and defense points are treated as the same as the monster attacking it" said Thomas
Cyber Shadow Gardna's form changes to a darker looking version of Stronghold the Moving Fortress. Stronghold's ATK is redirected at Cyber Shadow Gardna, who responds with a counter move, destroying both monsters.
"Great, now I don't have Stronghold, and he's one of my favourites" said Alex
"Oh well, too bad" said Philippe
"I end my turn" said Alex
Philippe draws a card.
"I've been waiting for this card, first I play the spell card, Triplets" said Philippe

Daylight Gardna Kaval wore brown shoulder plates, his sword had a sun on it and so did his shield, he has red hair and his clothes were black with red, orange and gold accents.
"With my Daylight Gardna's ability, I get to add my Moonlight Gardna Senshi to my hand" said Philippe
"That's fine" said Alex
"Now, Daylight Gardna, take out that Cyber Kirin, Solar Strike" said Philippe
"I activate Scrap-Iron Scarecrow to negate your attack" said Alex
The Scarecrow shields Kirin.
"I was hoping you would do that, because when my Gardna's attack is negated, you take 500 points of damage" said Philippe
"I think not, by sacrificing my Cyber Kirin, my life points are safe" said Alex
"Fine, but there's nothing saving you from my Gagaga Gardna, go, destroy Yellow Gadget" said Philippe
"Won't Scrap-Iron Scarecrow just negate the attack again?" asked Rick
"No, Scrap-Iron Scarecrow can only be used once per round" said Thomas
Yellow Gadget is destroyed.
Alex's LP (8000-300=7700)
The glass tank Emily and Bethany are locked in fills with a little bit of water.
"He wasn't kidding earlier" said Rick
"It's my turn" said Alex
Alex draws a card.
"I set a monster in defense mode, then I switch all my monsters to defense mode and I end with a face-down" said Alex

Moonlight Gardna Senshi looked alot like Daylight Gardna Kaval, except for the colours, his shoulder plates were grey, his shield & sword had a moon on instead of a sun, his hair was white and his clothes had Blue, Purple and Silver accents.

Saviour of Friendship
[Trap Card]
Activate only when a card effect that destroys 2 or more monsters you control is activated while you control 1 "Daylight Gardna Kaval" and 1 "Moonlight Gardna Senshi", tribute 1 to negate the activation.
"So by sacrificing my Senshi, I can negate my own Warrior Elimination" said Philippe
"Okay, I guess" said Alex
"Now, my Daylight Gardna Kaval can attack your set monster" said Philippe
Daylight's sword blasts out a blazing fire towards Alex's set monster.
"I activate my set card, Mirror Force" said Alex
Mirror Force
[Trap Card]
Activate only when your opponent's monster declares an attack, destroy all ATK position monsters your opponent controls.
A magical shield appears and repels Kaval's attack back at him and destroys him.
"What happened?" asked Philippe
"My Mirror Force card stops your attack and repels it back at your monster, and since it technically doesn't negate your attack, I take no damage" said Alex
"Oh well, when my Daylight Gardna Kaval is sent to the grave from the field, I get to summon my Moonlight Gardna Senshi from the graveyard" said Philippe
Senshi is resurrected.
"And I never ended the battle phase, Senshi, attack" said Philippe
Senshi grabs his sword and slashes the set monster, it was Alex's Sonic Jammer.
"And since my Senshi destroyed your monster, I gain life points equal to it's level multiplied by 200" said Philippe
"Alex's Sonic Jammer was a Level 2 so he gains 400 life points" said Thomas
Philippe's LP (6500+400=6900)
"I end my turn" said Philippe
Alex draws a card.
"Yes" thought Alex
"I summon Hyper Synchron in attack mode" said Alex
Hyper Synchron
Attribute: Light
Level 4
[Machine/Tuner]
ATK: 1600 DEF: 800
When this monster is sent to the graveyard for the Synchro Summon of a Dragon-Type monster: That monster gains 800 ATK. Also, Banish that monster during the end phase.
"So, I'll synch my Hyper Synchron with my Green Gadget" said Alex
Hyper Synchron transforms into 4 green rings that surround Green Gadget, who turns into 4 white lights
Level 4 + Level 4 = Level 8
"This allows me to Synchro summon...STARDUST DRAGON" said Alex

Stardust Dragon's ATK (2500+800=3300)
"Now, Stardust Dragon, attack his Moonlight Gardna Senshi with Cosmic Flare" said Alex
Stardust Dragon shoots white fire from it's mouth and destroys Senshi.
Philippe's LP (6900-800=6100)
"Did you forget? When my Moonlight Gardna is destroyed, I get to bring back Daylight Gardna Kaval from my graveyard" said Philippe
Kaval returns.
"I didn't forget, that's why I waited for this card, I activate Dark Hole" said Alex
Dark Hole
[Spell Card]
Destroy all monsters on the field.
"Why would he do that? Philippe's Moonlight Gardna will just return and Alex will be a sitting duck" said Thomas
"I also use Stardust Dragon's ability, by sacrificing him, I can negate my own Dark Hole, so every monster on the field is safe" said Alex
"Wait, that makes even less sense, why would Alex play Dark Hole just to negate it and sacrifice his own monster?" asked Rick
"Since I used Hyper Synchron to summon Stardust Dragon, my dragon would have been removed from play during my end phase, but by using Stardust's own effect at the end phase, he'll actually return to my field" thought Alex
"I end my turn, and with my Stardust's ability, he gets to return to my field" said Alex
Stardust Dragon reappears on the field. Philippe draws a card.
"I play a face-down, and I activate Warrior Elimination again, so I'm going to destroy my Kaval to bring back Senshi" said Philippe
"No you're not, remember when your Senshi destroyed my Sonic Jammer?" asked Alex
"Of course" said Philippe
"My Sonic Jammer had a flip effect, which was activated when you attacked him" said Alex
"What effect?" asked Philippe
"An effect that prevents you from using any spell cards until the end of your next turn, since you destroyed Sonic Jammer during your previous turn, your spell cards are useless until the end of this turn" said Alex
"NO!" yelled Philippe
"Yes, so you can't bring back your Senshi just yet" said Alex
"No matter, the only monster he has out that's even remotely powerful is his Stardust Dragon, it's too weak to survive an attack by my Gardna, but he has Scrap-Iron Scarecrow, so if I attack, he'll negate, but my Kaval's effect will still inflict damage" thought Philippe
"My Daylight Gardna Kaval attacks Stardust Dragon" said Philippe
Daylight Gardna Kaval begins it's attack on Stardust Dragon.
"I activate Scrap-Iron Scarecrow, to negate your attack" said Alex
The same scarecrow blocks Kaval's attack.
"But with my Kaval's ability, you still take life point damage" said Philippe
Alex's LP (7700-500=7200)
The glass tank Emily and Bethany are in fills with water a bit more.
"I end my turn" said Philippe
Alex draws a card.
"Maybe this card can help me" thought Alex
"Alright Philippe, I play Swords of Revealing Light" said Alex
About 100 balls of light appeared around Philippe's side of the field, they all turned into swords.
"Awesome, Swords of Revealing Light will prevent him from attacking for 3 turns" said Rick
"Or longer if I draw the right card in time" thought Alex
"Next, I set a monster in defense mode" said Alex
"Then it's my draw" said Philippe
Philippe draws a card.
"And once again, I can play spell cards, so I will play a third Warrior Elimination, so say goodbye to Daylight Gardna Kaval and hello to Moonlight Gardna Senshi" said Philippe
"Why did he play a weaker monster?" asked Thomas
"When swords of revealing light wears off, he will be able to use his monster to destroy Stardust Dragon, resurrect Daylight Gardna Kaval and gain 1600 life points from Senshi's effect" said Rick
"You're move" said Philippe
Alex draws a card.
Swords of Revealing Light (1/3)
"I sacrifice my Red Gadget to summon Jinzo in attack mode" said Alex
"Alright, that's one of Alex's best cards" said Rick
"But he's not strong enough to defeat Moonlight Gardna" said Thomas

Philippe draws a card.
"Aha, I play a spell card known as Shadow Draw" said Philippe

[Spell Card]

Philippe draws 3 cards.
"And I picked up another Shadow Draw, so I send another Necro Gardna to the grave to draw 3 more cards" said Philippe
Philippe drew 3 more cards.
"Oh no" said Alex
"Oh yes, I have 5 cards in my hand, whereas your hand is disappearing, next, I set this monster face-down, but I can't attack because of Swords of Revealing Light, so I end my turn" said Philippe
Alex draws a card.

"Sweet, now Philippe's monsters are frozen for another 3 turns" said Thomas
"Not only that, but since you have a set monster out, my Swords of Revealing Light will reveal what it is" said Alex
Philippe's set card is revealed to be a Ghost Gardna.
"Jinzo, attack, Cyber Energy Shock" said Alex
Jinzo creates a ball of energy in his hands and blasts it at Ghost Gardna, destroying it.

"So say goodbye to Jinzo" said Philippe

A golden chest appears on the field, a mystery card appears and goes inside it.
"I end my turn" said Philippe

Alex draws a card. He was shocked at what he drew.
"It's that Kuribot card that that guy Kaz gave me, wait, I have an idea" thought Alex
"I summon Kuribot in attack mode" said Alex
Kuribot
Attribute: Fire
Level 1
[Machine/Effect]
ATK: 300 DEF: 200
As long as this card face-up on the field, you take no battle damage.
"With Kuribot, I can't take battle damage, next, I play Monster Reincarnation, so by discarding Quillbolt Hedgehog from play, I get to put 1 monster back in my hand, so I choose Jinzo" said Alex
"Uh oh" said Philippe
"I attack your Mid Shield Gardna with my Stardust Dragon" said Alex
Stardust Dragon shoots white fire at Philippe's set Mid Shield.
"Next, I attack with Y-Dragon Head" said Alex
Y-Dragon Head shoots flames at Philippe.

"Alright, he's winning" said Thomas
"I end my turn" said Alex
Philippe draws a card.
"It's been 2 turns since I activated Gold Sarcophagus, so the card I placed inside it is mine now" said Philippe
"What was it?" asked Alex
Philippe reveals the card he hid inside the Gold Sarcophagus was Monster Reborn.
"I play Monster Reborn to bring back my Moonlight Gardna, then I summon my Zero Gardna in attack mode" said Philippe
Zero Gardna
Attribute: Earth
Level 4
[Warrior/Effect]
ATK: 0 DEF: 0
You can Tribute this card to activate its effect. If you do, monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle and you take no Battle Damage, during this turn. This effect can be activated during either player's turn.
"Now, I will attack your Y-Dragon Head" said Philippe
Philippe's Gardna destroys Y-Dragon Head.
"Wait, why didn't your life points go down?" asked Philippe
"Because of my Kuribot, as long as I have him out, I take no battle damage" said Alex
"That's fine, but I still get a bonus of 800 life points from my Moonlight Gardna's ability" said Philippe

"Oh no" said Rick
Alex draws a card and smiles.
"I set 1 card face-down and it's your move" said Alex
Philippe draws a card.
"I'm going to get rid of that pesky Kuribot, Moonlight Gardna, attack Kuribot" said Philippe
Moonlight Gardna prepares to attack Kuribot.
"I activate my trap card, Magical Arm Shield" said Alex
Magical Arm Shield
[Trap Card]
When your opponent declares an attack while you control a monster: Target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls, except the attacking monster; take control of that target until the end of the Battle Phase, and if you do, it is attacked instead, and you proceed to damage calculation.
A white shield appears infront of Kuribot, and Zero Gardna pops out of the Shield like a Coocoo Clock.
"What is this?" asked Philippe
"My Magical Arm Shield saves my monster by using yours as a shield" said Alex
Zero Gardna is destroyed.
"NO!" yelled Philippe
"Normally I would still take battle damage, but since I have Kuribot out on the field, my life points are safe" said Alex
"Doesn't matter, I still gain another 800 life points" said Philippe
Philippe's LP (1700+800=2500)
"I end my turn" said Philippe
Alex draws a card.
"First, I sacrifice my Kuribot in order to summon my Jinzo in attack mode, forget about using trap cards, next, I play Megamorph" said Alex
Megamorph
[Spell Card]
[Equip Spell]
When your life points are lower than your opponent's, double the equipped monsters original ATK. When your life points are higher than your opponent's, halve the equipped monsters original ATK.
"And, I equip it to my Jinzo, since my life points are lower than yours, Jinzo's attack is 4800, now, Stardust Dragon, attack Moonlight Gardna" said Alex
Stardust Dragon and Moonlight Gardna both fire at eachother and both monsters are destroyed.
"NO!" yelled Philippe
"I attack directly with Jinzo" said Alex
Jinzo creates a ball of energy in his hands and blasts it at Philippe.

"That ends the game" said Alex
A high pitched whistling is heard, the glass tank smashes, freeing the girls.
"Girls, are you okay?" asked Alex
"We are now, thanks to you" said Emily
Bethany ran towards Thomas and the 2 shared a hug.
"Thank goodness you're alright" said Thomas
"Man, the DMH are really starting to play dirty" said Rick
"Yeah, I'm sick of them" said Alex
"Me too, I know we can beat them" said Thomas
"Yeah, now, let's go home" said Alex
The 5 friends went home.
