Right now, it was a peaceful day at Duel Academy as a white-clad Chazz Princeton was walking in the courtyard and passing many students along the way

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, Yu-Gi-Oh, Yu-Gi-Oh GX, Inuyasha, Monster Rancher, Digimon, Naruto, Ranma ½, Beyblade, and Death Note.

Author's Note: I made a mistake of the guessing of the ages of Inuyasha, Melody, Holly, and Genki in the few chapters back. You see, I went to and realized that when Monster Rancher started Genki was twelve years old, so basically Holly was two years older than him until her 15th birthday, then adding the one year that Genki came back to help Holly getting her father's soul back from Moo's Mystery Disk. So, this will be one year after Genki came back from the Monster Rancher world for the second time. You can thank Fox Family for that, since they stop airing Monster Rancher after the end of the 2nd season! Then, with the ages of Inuyasha and Melody, I intended for them to be the same age as Holly, in human years, since I'm making the three of them siblings, so in human years Inuyasha, Melody, and Holly are 17 years old and Genki is 15 years old in this point of this fic. Even though, Inuyasha, Melody, and Holly spent many times in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber in Dartz's castle, but once they get out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, they keep their 17-year-old appearances in human years that is. As for Genki, I made a guess when it came to his last name. When I went to , I found out Genki's last name which turned out to be Sakura, so his last name will be altered from Akaya to Sakura.

Chapter 90: Homecoming Duel Pt. 1

(At a local dojo in Japan; late night)

In the night, there were sounds of agonizing coming from a local dojo in Japan. As we look inside, we find many beaten and battered karate students on the floor, while many tried to stand up. However, there's one figure that's was standing with a wide sly smile on his lips as he brushes of his green hair. We take a look to see that it's Kibano, one of the fighters from the Genkai Tournament that Yusuke Urameshi defeated.

Kibano says, in a nasty sneer, "I can't believe that I've reduced to fighting wimps!" Kibano says, in a serious tone, "However, I wouldn't mind fighting that street kid, Yusuke Urameshi, again."

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Why would you be interested in fighting a has-been like Urameshi, anyways!?" Kibano whips around to see in his front Inuyasha and his sisters, in their human forms, their mother, Izayoi, Taichi Kamiya, and Naruto Uzumaki, with evil sly smiles on their lips.

Kibano asks, in a serious tone, "And who the hell are you guys!?"

Melody says, with an evil sly smile, "That's unimportant right now, Kibano."

Kibano takes a step back and he exclaims, perplexed, "Who did you know my name!?"

Izayoi says, with a dark cold serious tone, "We know that two years ago, that you lost to Yusuke Urameshi in that Genkai Tournament. We need your attack and your soul as well."

Kibano says, perplexed, "My soul!" Kibano then says, in a serious tone, "I don't know who you guys are and I don't care. However, you were going to get the hell out of here, before I show you the door."

Holly steps up and she says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Since, you think that you're so great, then you wouldn't mind if you challenge me."

Kibano says, with sly smile, "You're challenging me! You're asking for a death wish, kid. Besides, little girls shouldn't be fighting grown men like me."

Holly says, in a dark cold serious tone, "You might think of me as a kid, but now. When, I'm done with you, Kibano, you wouldn't be so high and mighty!"

Kibano says, in a plain tone, "Famous last words." As the rest of the Orichalcos warriors got further away, the two fighters got in their fighting stance as they looked at each other with serious and dark cold serious stares.

To begin the fight, Kibano charges at Holly, but the Orichalcos-controlled youngest half-dog demon turned human sibling moved out of the way of Kibano's fist. Kibano was surprised at first, but he threw another punch towards Holly. Holly jumps into the air with great agility, over Kibano's head, and to the other side of the dojo.

Holly says, with an evil sly smile, "Your attack is pathetic! What a waste of time!" Soon after, Holly disappears using super-speed and rushes over to Kibano, giving him no time to counter, rams her right fist to Kibano's chest, making him hack blood and throwing him to the wall, crashing into it, making an imprint of his body and he slumps to the ground.

Holly laughs, evilly, and she says, "Well, I think I proved my point, Kibano!" Kibano, then, slowly rises to his feet and he tells Holly, in a plain tone, "How did you do that? You're no ordinary girl, that's for sure."

Holly's evil smile still stays strong and Kibano says, in a serious tone, "If that's the case, I'm done playing around!" Kibano charges after Holly, reading to fight, and goes to throw a barrel of punches towards the Orichalcos-controlled half-demon, but she dodges every single one of them, easily. Then, Holly counterattacks, punching Kibano sixteen times on the face, chest, and stomach, breaking two more of his ribs, and throwing him to the wall, again.

Melody says, in a dark cold sly tone, "It's over!" Soon after, Kibano slowly stands up and he gives Holly an annoyed look on his face, which had multiple black and blues.

Holly says, with an evil sinister smile, "I hope that you're quitting after that!"

Kibano yells out, angrily, "You little bitch! You're going down!" Kibano started to raise his power. Green energy started to form around his right arm.

Naruto says, amazed, "Whoa! What's happening to his arm!?"

Kibano says, in a serious tone, "With this attack, no one has ever survived except for that Urameshi kid, but I doubt you'll ever escape or survive!" Kibano charges with his right arm with incredible speed that Holly was taken by surprise as Kibano's attack hits her chest, breaking two ribs, and throwing her towards the wall, crashing into it, making an imprint of her body as she slumps to the floor.

Tai asks, curiously, "Is she…?"

Melody says, in a dark cold plain tone, "No, Holly's life force still there! She's still alive!"

Kibano says, with a sly and confident tone, "It's over!"

Holly's voice calls out, darkly and coldly, "Wrong!" To Kibano's surprise, Holly jumps to her feet, wiping the blood from her mouth. Kibano yells out, shocked, "Impossible!"

Holly laughs, evilly, and she says, with an evil smile, "Wrong, Kibano! I won't go down that easy, especially not after this!" Soon after, Holly's body produces red demonic aura as her half-dog demon appearance soon take place.

Kibano yells out, shocked, "What the!? What the hell are you!?"

Holly says, with an evil sly smile with her fangs showing, "This is my real form, Kibano! In this form, I'm a hell of a lot stronger, faster, and powerful than I was before! You see, me as well as my siblings, Inuyasha and Melody, are actually half-dog demons!" Holly says, extending her claws and with an evil sinister smile, "And half is all I need to kick your hide, anymore than that will be a waste of my time!"

Kibano screams out, fearfully, as he turns to run, but Holly, using her demon super-speed, to attack Kibano.

"Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!"

Holly uses her brother's attack and slashes through Kibano with quick and powerful swipes of her claws, ripping out his soul, and Kibano's body goes limp afterwards. Holly then goes over to Kibano's lifeless form and pulls out four of his hair pieces. Holly goes over to her family and new 'comrades' as she gives them to her mother and siblings, so they can absorb Kibano's DNA to get his Big Arm Bomber attack.

Tai asks, pointing at the wounded and unconscious fighters, "But what about them?"

Inuyasha and Melody turns into their half-dog demon forms and soon the screams of the fighters were heard throughout the dojo.

(On Academy Island; On that night)

On Academy Island, in the forest, we find our two Elemental Hero duelists and Spirit Detectives, Jaden Yuki and Daisuke Motomiya lying on the grass, sleeping on it. Soon after, some form of light came from the sky and hits a side of the volcano.

Just then, a mysterious male voice calls out, seriously, "Jaden, Daisuke, we need you!" Soon after, the two boys woke up as they stand up onto their feet. They two boys looked at the smoke coming up from the side of the volcano.

Jaden says, in a nervous tone, "That doesn't sound good."

Davis says, with a nod, "No joke, Jay! I wonder what it is!"

Jaden says, in a plain tone, "I don't know, but let's find out!" Soon after, Jaden and Davis run over to the volcano. Ten minutes later, the two boys walked over to the place where the strange light hits. The two of them head into the volcano and they find themselves on a ledge into a pool of lava and when the lava rises, the male voice calls out, "Jaden, Daisuke, the

next stage in your mission starts now."

(In Keiko's dream; On the same evening)

At that very same evening, we find Keiko, in her female Obelisk Blue uniform, quickly getting to her feet as she finds herself in Ancient Egypt and looks around.

Keiko asks, perplexed, "What the?! Why am I in Ancient Egypt!?"

Just then, a female voice sounding a lot like Keiko's voice calls out, except it sounds a bit more mature and commanding-like, "You're at my home, Keiko!" Keiko turns around to find the owner of the voice and she asks, fearfully, "Okay, who are you?"

Just then, a female figure, which appears to be wearing a dress similar to an Egyptian Princess, appears beside Keiko and Keiko looks at it. The female voice calls out, in a serious and kind tone similar to Keiko's, "Don't worry, Keiko! I'm not going to harm you! I know what happened with your affairs with Sartorius and I know how you feel."

Keiko says, angrily, "How do you know about that asshole!?"

The female figure says, in a serious tone, "More than you know. I want to tell you another way to free Yusuke from Sartorius's control."

Keiko says, seriously, "Another way! Please tell me!" Just then, images of the three Egyptian God Monsters comes behind of the female figure and the female figure tells Keiko, "You must embrace your true power! You must become the true 'Mistress of Light of Hope'."

Keiko says, perplexed, "Become the true Mistress of Light and Hope!"

The female figure says, in a serious tone, "That's right! However, you must carry a great burden in the future!" Just then an image of a dragon with its body mainly made up of red rose petals, thorn filled vines coming out its wings, made up of red rose petals, and its tail is a thorn filled vine appears in front of Keiko, making her gasp in surprise and fearfully.

Keiko yells out, surprised and fearfully, "That's that! What kind of dragon is that!"

The female figure says, in a serious tone, "This is the symbol of the burden that you will carry in the future. The Dragon of Destruction and Rebirth, which will be another part of your power. The power of Black Rose Dragon!" The image of Black Rose Dragon comes closer to Keiko and she wakes up in a cold sweat. Keiko, who was wearing her dark blue pajamas, looks around to see that she was in one of the rooms in Chazz's redesigned room.

Keiko says, with a tiring tone in her voice, "What was that dream about!? It felt so real!" Soon after, BlackGatomon, who was sleeping besides Keiko's bed, woke up and she asks Keiko, sleepily, "Keiko, what's wrong now?"

Keiko looks at BlackGatomon and she replies, with a small smile, "It's nothing but a nightmare I had, BlackGatomon. Now, go to bed." Soon after, Keiko falls into a deep slumber. However, she doesn't notice that her right arm has a glowing front dragon's claw for a second before vanishing.

On the meanwhile, outside of Keiko's room, Mina and Kino, who were sleeping in the living room, with Mina wearing pink pajamas and Kino wearing blue pajamas had so woken up when they heard Keiko's gasp. They were at the door as they notice the mysterious front dragon's claw on Keiko's right arm.

Kino asks, surprised, "What the hell is that?"

Mina tells Kino, in a serious tone, "Kino, I was right about Lady Keiko. Her 'hidden power', the power from her human self, is starting to awaken." Soon after, Mina takes out a cell phone and calls someone.

(At Industrial Illusions; At that same night)

Meanwhile, at Industrial Illusions in the mainlands, where Pegasus is keeping up with affairs at Duel Academy and discussing with Chumley Huffington the 'finishing touch' on the newest series of Duel Monsters cards that they have been developing.

Pegasus asks, curiously, "Chumley, is the card almost done."

Chumley says, with a nod, "That's right, Mister Pegasus! They're awesome cards that make game more 'lishious' than ever before especially those five new one-of-a-kind Dragon cards."

Pegasus nods his head in agreement and he says, "Indeed. But, those five Dragons are not meant for the public."

Chumley asks Pegasus, "Why not?"

Pegasus tells Chumley, "These Dragon cards are like the Egyptian God Cards. Only five 'Chosen Ones' known as 'Signers' can weld them."

Just then Pegasus gets a phone call and he answers it. After the voice on the phone says what the voice wants to say, Pegasus says, surprised, "What? Are you sure?!"

Soon after, more talking from the voice on the phone, Pegasus says, in a serious tone, "I see. Thank you. I'll take care of the rest."

When Pegasus hangs up the phone, Chumley asks him, "What's wrong, sir?"

Pegasus replies, in a serious tone, "That they found their first 'Signer'!" Soon after, Pegasus takes out a dueling deck from a briefcase with an electronic lock on it. Pegasus turns over the top card and it reveals to be a monster card with a white colored body displaying a picture of the same dragon that Keiko saw, the title 'Black Rose Dragon' as the name of the monster card, showing it to be a seven star, Fire Attribute monster, 2400 attack points and 1800 defense points, and it is also some kind of new Synchro monster.

Pegasus says, in a plain tone, "Black Rose Dragon, a dragon of destruction and rebirth, and I never thought that she would weld this card. If she holds the power to weld this dragon that I think I do, I hope that she doesn't lose herself…to her own power." Pegasus puts the card on top of the deck and says, amazed, "Keiko Yukimura…"

(Meanwhile in Jaden's, Syrus's, and Hassleberry's room; At that same night)

In Jaden's, Syrus's, and Hassleberry's room, we find Syrus Truesdale and Tyranno Hassleberry sleeping, while in the bathroom our former spirit detective and half-Ma-zoku, Yusuke Urameshi, in his green pajamas, splashing cold water into his face. Just know, Yusuke had another dream about Ancient Egypt, where figures of his friends and Keiko as well as himself took place. The reason why Yusuke was so shaken up about this was that he had experienced a Chinese Prince version of himself and an Egyptian Princess version of Keiko together in Ancient Egypt.

Yusuke thinks in his mind, in a cold serious tone, "What the hell is wrong with me!? Why am I having the same dream about me and that traitor!? She means absolutely nothing to me now! All she ever cared about was making herself look good in front of her teachers and peers, while using me! Besides, all love does is give people nothing but pain and misery in the end!"

Just then, a male voice calls out from Yusuke's mind, in a more mature, strong, and commanding-like, "That's where you're wrong, Yusuke!?"

Yusuke whips around to find the owner of the voice, but no one was around, and Yusuke thinks in his mind, perplexed, "What was that?"

Just then, the strong male voice calls out from Yusuke's mind, "Yusuke, you're wrong about Keiko! She cares for you deeply and she loves you! Besides, no one can hear you but me…"

Yusuke yells out, mentally and in a cold serious tone, "Okay, who the hell are you!?"

Just then, the strong male voice calls out from Yusuke's mind, "You can probably call me 'your conscience', pal! All I can tell you is that do you really believe that Keiko is capable of doing all those things like playing with your emotions from the start!"

Yusuke says, mentally and in a cold annoyed tone, "Of course! Master Sartorius was never wrong about anything before, so why would he be wrong now!"

The strong male voice calls out, in a serious tone, "What Sartorius told you were nothing but a pack of lies, Yusuke, and you know it! Sartorius is using you, Kagome, Catherine, and Kelly! He's using your weaknesses for his advantage! Sartorius was only using you four from the start!"

Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone and mentally, "How dare you say that Master Sartorius was lying!? He's always been right from the get-go! Ever since, we've met him, we made it easily for the past year! If you were around, I'd kick your ass for feeding me this bullshit!"

Yusuke's 'conscience' then tells Yusuke, in a serious tone, "Okay, first of all, you can't attack your 'conscience', dumbass, and second of all, if you truly believed that Keiko never cared about you, then answer me this…when you died and appeared in your wake, all of the people there acted as if their 'monster' was gone, but then ones that were truly saddened by your first death was Kuwabara, Kari, your mother, and Keiko! I mean you saw Keiko's tears when you were a ghost remember!" Yusuke gasps in shock as he remembered on the day that he saw Keiko's tears at his first death, while her two school friends, Ryoko and Mia, comforting him.

Yusuke's 'conscience' then tells Yusuke, in a serious tone, "Remember, when your first house was getting burnt to the ground, you saw Keiko risking her life to save you from that burning house! You can't say that she didn't care for then! How about the times that she stopped you from jumping from that bridge when you were ten years old and she cried that she didn't hate you, while Hikari was never around, since she was at Duel Monsters Prep School! The only time that you've seen Hikari was during your Spirit Detectives assignments!"

Yusuke yells out, in a cold nasty tone, "Oh yeah! Then, why did she move on to that asshole, Tyku Ryuuzaki! Why did she get her 'new perfect boyfriend' to beat up Sy and have the nerve to come my apartment, blaming Tyku's bruises on me that he was her 'new boyfriend'!? She's just like the others I've met in my life! Once something goes wrong, they blame it on me! Well, I'm fucking sick of it!"

Yusuke's 'conscience' then tells Yusuke, in a serious and annoyed tone, "You fucking idiot! She was probably confused about her feelings between you and Tyku and since you believed Sartorius's words than hers and you treated her nothing but shit, she probably felt that Tyku was telling the truth! Tyku probably seduced Kei into making her his girlfriend! You aren't the only victim, Yusuke! Keiko was also a victim as well and she lost the one that she loved and she blames herself for it! Keiko always was there for you and do you know why? Because she cares and she loves you! You, Yusuke Urameshi! You're the one that she cares for deeply!"

While thinking about what his 'conscience' said, Yusuke was starting to believe that he was so wrong about Keiko all this time and was starting to feel guilty for treating her so badly. Just then, Yusuke's cold and heartless eyes turned to solemn and grief ones. Just then, a cold mysterious voice calls out in Yusuke's mind, "Yusuke Urameshi, I hope that you do not believe a word that fool is saying! Keiko Yukimura is the true enemy and the main source of your pain!"

Yusuke says, perplexed, "She is?"

The cold voice says, with an evil sly tone, "That's right, my child! Your so-called 'conscience' is trying to trick you! It's trying to blind you from the truth!"

The strong and commanding male voice calls out, "No, I'm not! Yusuke, don't believe him! He's trying to get you to hurt Keiko even more!"

The cold voice calls out, "Oh please, that deceivable wench wouldn't know what hurt is, even if bit her in the arm! She hasn't experienced loneliness and despair like Yusuke has! She has no idea what it is like to be a complete outcast of society, because she was born illegitimately! Being called 'bastard child', 'whore's son', and anything that fits in that category! How could she, a person that has been worshiped like a goddess throughout her days at school, understand what true loneliness and despair!?" The cold voice calls out in Yusuke's mind, harshly, "Yusuke, don't be a fool! Keiko Yukimura is the true enemy! Right from the start, she is just trying to weaken you, Yusuke…You've became a strong duelist over the year…without Keiko's support! Besides, she's already rejected you…"

Yusuke calls out to the voice in reply, mentally, "Keiko…rejected me…?"

The cold and harsh voice replies, mentally, "That's right, my child! All you ever did for her was saving her sorry tail while putting your own life in the line…and she left you…Keiko Yukimura is just trying to weaken you…You are the Prince of Obelisk Blue…you do not need her…"

Yusuke asks the voice, mentally, "I…I don't…?"

The voice replies, mentally, "Yes, you don't need her…all she will do is weakening you…she wants to take your destiny…take away your strength…you are strong without her…Can you sure that she won't hurt you like others did…?"

Yusuke thinks in his mind, as negative thoughts about Keiko fill his mind, once again, and he replies, in a cold harsh mental tone, "No…No, I don't need her…She is trying to weaken me…To trick me…She rejected me…when she went with that asshole, Tyku Ryuuzaki, and believed his bullshit lies about me beating him up, just because she's his 'new boyfriend'…She just left me alone…And I don't need her…! I became the Prince of Obelisk Blue without her help and sure as Hell don't need that bitch now or ever!"

However, the first other voice, one filled strength and power, yells out in Yusuke's mind, "Don't listen to that voice, Yusuke…Its trying to blind you from the truth…!"

The cold and harsh voice exclaims in Yusuke's mind, "Be silent! Leave at once!"

The strong and pure voice shouts out in Yusuke's mind, "I will not be silenced! Yusuke…don't listen to that voice…you must free yourself…this evil light is controlling you…using you…Sartorius is using you…!!"

Yusuke replies, in a cold serious mental tone, "No, Master Sartorius would never use me! He is a great man! Besides, why should I return back to the 'old' Yusuke Urameshi!? That weakling had his heart taken by a girl, who he loved with all his heart and soul, and she stabbed him in the back, by kissing another guy, going out with another guy and believing that I'm out beating him up just because he 'replaced' me as her boyfriend without any source of evidence whatsoever! If I leave the Light, what's stopping her from doing hurting me, again! The next time that bitch is in trouble, let her demon strength or her 'new' boyfriend bail her out, I'm done risking my ass for that ingrate!" Yusuke then walks away from the bathroom, after drying his face with a towel, turning off the Light and went back to bed.

(The next morning; In the courtyards)

In the night morning, it was a peaceful day at Duel Academy as a white-clad Chazz Princeton was walking in the courtyard and passing many students along the way.

One of the male Obelisk students says, "Look it's Chazz! I heard that he totally lost it."

One of the Ra Yellow students says, in a plain tone, "Yeah, who wears white after Labor Day?" The students laughed at this comment and another male Obelisk student says, with a sly tone, "I bet his next outfit will be a straight jacket!" That brought more laughter to the students, which got Chazz to stop.

Chazz says, with a cold sly grin, "You know, I'm not afraid of getting this outfit dirty! I've got three more in my room." The students got the message and they ran off into the distance.

Chazz walks off in the opposite direction and he says, with a cold snobbish tone, "They'll be wearing white soon enough, but they won't be as good looking as me."

(Inside the school; Meanwhile)

Inside the school building, we find Yusuke Urameshi, Hikari Urameshi, Kagome Higurashi, Catherine Maxwell, Kelly Storm, Ranma Saotome, Tyson Granger, Hinata Hyuga, Takeru 'TK' Takashi, Kari Kamiya, Kazuma Kuwabara, Tyranno Hassleberry, and Syrus Truesdale walking down the hallways, talking about the latest scheme made by Crowler and Bonaparte, while walking to class.

Syrus asks, curiously, "So, when do you think Crowler and Bonaparte are going to strike?"

Ranma says, in his usual tone, "Who knows and who cares, they're not touching the Slifer Red Dorm, while we're still here!"

Yusuke says, in a serious tone, "Yeah, but Crowler is known to be sneaky in the past and Bonaparte is just as sleazy too!"

Hikari says, in a plain tone, "That means we need to be on our guard for now on!" Soon after, as they walked towards the door, a familiar female voice calls out, "Good morning, guys!" The group turns to see another group, consisting of Alexis Rhodes, Keiko Yukimura, Akane Tendo, Kira Urameshi, Tiara Rikea, Genki Sakura, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and Matt Ishida, walking towards them.

Hinata says, with a kind tone, "Good morning!" When Hinata looks at Sasuke and Sakura, she gives them icy-cold harsh glares, which made them flinch at the sight of it, if looks could kill, they'd be dead in a matter of seconds, which was the same with TK and Kari, giving Matt the similar glares and Yusuke and Kagome giving Keiko cold harsh and angered glares, which made her winces at this, which Kuwabara, Syrus, Hikari, Kira, Alexis, Genki, as well as Akane could pick up.

Akane thinks, perplexed, "Whoa! What's with cold harsh glares around!?"

Hikari says, trying to cut the tension, "Okay, let's get to class, we wouldn't want to be late!"

Alexis says, with a smile, "You're right, Kari!" Soon after, as the group gets into the class Yusuke and Keiko accidently bumped into each other, which made Yusuke give an even colder angered glare at his 'ex'-girlfriend, making her winch.

Keiko looked away from Yusuke's cold harsh glare and she says, solemnly, "Sorry."

Yusuke says, with a cold snort, "Yeah, whatever!" Yusuke then walks away from the solemn brunette as she walks towards her seat. Just as Kari and TK was going inside, Matt grabs Kari's right wrist and TK's left wrist, making them stop and they turned to give TK's older brother icy-cold glares.

Matt flinched at this and he says, pleading, "Guys, I know that you're angry with me, but…"

TK says, in an angered tone, "Angry with you!? Angry with you is half the question, Matt!"

Kari says, angrily, "That's right! Thanks you and Sora, my brother is gone!"

Matt says, in a serious tone, "I know and I'm sorry!"

Kari says, in an angered tone, "You're sorry! Sorry doesn't tell me where Tai is, Ishida!"

Matt says, seriously, "I know, but I…" Just then, Matt felt a painful slap to his right cheek, which made him let go of his younger brother and Kari's wrists. Kari brought her hand, which she used to slap Matt, down and she says, an icy and monotone voice, "Just stay the hell away from me, asshole! I'll see you in class, TK." Kari just walks inside of the room and TK follows her.

Matt calls out, pleadingly, "TK, please…" TK turns to give his brother an angered glare and TK says, in an angered snarl, "Matt, I don't want to hear it! I know that you're my brother and all, but when you broke my best friend's older sister's heart and betrayed her and Tai, our best friend and yours mostly included, the one that was always there for us, and Sora left him, just because some whore kissed him, I've lost all respect for you as person in general! You could have done something, excluding something that has to get into the girl's pants! With that action that you and Sora have done, I don't think there's anyone else that could forgive you for that sin!" With that TK walks away from his saddened brother and takes his seat next to Kari.

(In the evening; In Obelisk Arena)

In the evening, Crowler and Bonaparte arrange for a duel against Alexis and Aster and if Aster wins this duel, the Slifer Red dorm is torn down and Alexis swore to defend Jaden's home dorm until he gets back. Now, within Obelisk Arena, we find Crowler, Bonaparte, Hassleberry, Syrus, Bastion, Tyson and his friends, Yusuke with his family, ex-girlfriend, and friends, even Hiei, Mina, Kino, Sasuke and his fellow Shinobi, Ranma, Akane, Ukyo, and our Obadia Digidestined, except for Tai and Davis, in the stands as Alexis prepares to duel Aster for the fate of the Slifer Red dorm.

Kari yells out, encouragingly, "Come on, Alexis! You can do it!"

Hikari calls out, seriously, "Show this poser what real girl power is about!"

Kurama asks Hiei, curiously, "Why are you here, Hiei? I didn't think that you like these type of duels."

Hiei replies, in his usual tone, "I don't. I'm only here because I sensed a new power here and it is coming this way."

Kurama tells Hiei, with a serious tone, "Yes, I sensed it too."

Bonaparte then yells out, in his French accent, "Attention! If Alexis Rhodes loses this duel, you can say farewell to the Red Dorm!"

Alexis calls out, seriously, "Not going to happen, folks!"

Aster tells Alexis, "Get your game on!"

They prepared their decks to duel, but then a familiar male voice, "Hey! That's my line!" Everyone gasps in shock since they recognized that voice.

Syrus asks, shocked, "Did you hear that?" Everyone looks to the source of the voice to see Jaden Yuki and Daisuke Motomiya running up towards all of them.

Yusuke, Keiko, Tyson, Sayu, Ranma, and of their friends, except for Sasuke and Hiei, yell out in unison, "Jaden! Davis!"

Alexis exclaims, excitedly, "You're back!"

Jaden yells out, "Did you miss me?!" Jaden then runs over to his friends and sister, waves to Aster as he passes by, and says, "What's up?" Aster gives a growl of annoyance at seeing Jaden.

Alexis comes down from the dueling field and tells Jaden, "Welcome back."

Keiko tells Jaden, "Where have you and Davis been, Jaden?"

Jaden tells Keiko, with a smile, "Well, sis, we've been where no duelist has been before."

Aster tells Jaden, nastily, "Could you have stayed there?"

Jaden tells Aster, with his sly grin, "No way! There was no oxygen and they didn't have any cable."

Davis then says, with a smile, "You see, we went into outer space and meet this dolphin man. And he gave some sweet new cards for my deck." Everyone gives Jaden a perplexed looks on their faces.

Genki whispers curiously, "Did that last duel drop him on his head or something? No one can go into outer space without a space-ship."

Keiko asks Jaden, curiously, "Jay, are you sure that you are all right?"

Syrus says, groaning solemnly, "Ah, man! All of the good stuff happens to Jaden."

Hassleberry states, "And I thought dueling a guy with a bag over his head was weird."

Jaden tells Hassleberry, "Believe me, it gets weirder. After chilling back here on Earth, we met up with two more alien dudes." Jaden then tells the story about how he met Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab, also known as Flick, and Neo-Spacian Air Hummingbird as well as getting back his ability to see Winged Kuriboh. Jaden then says, "Pretty sweet, huh? Now, my deck is even sweeter than before." Jaden then calls out to Aster, "Hey, Aster, how would you like to have the honor of being the first to lose to my new deck?! Because I've got a new set of heroes that you've never seen before!"

Aster yells out, annoyed, "You're nuts! I told you already that there are no heroes on Earth that can stand up to mine!"

Jaden tells Aster, a bit annoyed, "I told you that my new heroes come from outer space, not Earth." Aster gives a growl of anger and annoyance at Jaden.

Bastion tells Jaden, "Jaden, maybe you should rest. I mean, do you really believe there is a race of 'fish people'?"

Davis tells Bastion, "Of course not. Their dolphin people not fish. There is a difference."

Bastion says, nervously, "Oh, my bad."

Tyson asks Kenny, in a whisper, "What do you think about what Jaden is saying, Chief?"

Kenny tells Tyson, "I do not believe that Jaden and Davis are lying because their voices and tone are so sure that it can't be said that they were hallucinating as well."

Kuwabara says, in a whisper, "Okay, alien Duel Monsters? Jaden and Davis have got to be imagining things or something."

Yusuke says, plainly, "You have to admit that everything weird happens to us, practically every time."

Kira says, plainly, "But going to outer space without a rocket ship isn't one of those topics."

Jaden tells Alexis, "Let me take your place, Alexis. I need to do this." Alexis looks at Jaden, surprised, as he jumps onto the duel stage and he calls out, "Thanks! You won't regret this!"

Bonaparte says, protest, "That's not fair!"

Bastion tells Bonaparte, "Sure it is. Jaden lives in the Slifer Red dorm as well so he has much of a right to fight for it."

Ranma yells out, nastily, "Yeah, knock it off, short stack!"

Yolei calls out, with a serious tone, "Butt out, jerk!"

Crowler exclaims, "All right! It's a rematch!" Crowler whispers to Bonaparte, "The crowd will love this."

Bonaparte tells Crowler, "You are letting those slackers run all over you again."

Jaden yells out, excitedly, "Thanks, Chancellor Crowler! You're the best! You don't how much I missed dueling!"

Aster tells Jaden, nastily, "Do you miss losing as well?"

Alexis throws Jaden her duel disc, minus her dueling deck, Jaden catches it, and Alexis tells him, "Go get him!"

Jaden tells Alexis, with a smile, "Thanks, 'Lex. You're the best! I owe you one!" Alexis tries her best to hide her blush as Jaden inserts his new 'Neos deck' into the duel disc and attached the duel disc to his left arm.

Crowler calls out, "All right, that's enough! Let the duel begin!"

Jaden exclaims, excitedly and seriously, "Works for me!"

The two duelists draw five cards from their decks and call out in unison, "Game on!"

Starting Scores:

Aster: 8000

Jaden: 8000

Aster draws one card from his deck and says, "I'll kick things off!" Aster puts one card on his duel disc and exclaims, "And what better way to start off the hurt than with my Diamond Dude?!" Soon after, a green hurricane comes on the field and forms into Destiny Hero-Diamond Dude (1400/1600) appearing on the field in attack mode.

Syrus says, shocked, "Wow. That's some start."

Hassleberry tells Syrus, "It's powerful, but nothing that Jaden can't handle."

Aster then draws one card from his deck and says, "Now, it is time for some special effect action! I draw the top card in my deck and if it is a Normal Spell card, I can send it to my graveyard and use it next turn!" Aster says, displaying a Graceful Charity spell card, "Now for the moment of truth! It's the spell card Graceful Charity! I love it when a plan comes together!" Aster then puts the spell card in the graveyard pile as he ends his turn.

Jaden draws one card from his deck and says, "So do I! My move!" Jaden looks at the cards in his hand and the card he just drew. Jaden then puts one card on his duel disc and calls out, "You aren't the only one that can start with a hero! And believe me, this bad boy is guaranteed to make a splash! So, meet Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin!" A wave comes on the field and out of the wave of water Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin (600/800) comes to the field in attack mode. Aster and practically everyone else gasps in shock at the new monster and Jaden says, with a smile, "Told my new heroes are out of this world!"

Bastion says, amazed, "It's true! They are aliens!"

Hikari yells out, stunned, "Whoa! I've never seen those monsters before!"

Kira tells Bastion, with a serious tone, "Neither have I, Kari. Makes me wonder what they can do!"

Sayu says, amazed, "Yeah, no kidding, Kira!"

Hilary asks Kenny, "Hey, Chief, did you hear about these 'Neo-whatever' that Jaden just played?"

Kenny shakes his head and says, "No. Never. Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin isn't a monster on any card database."

Izzy says, in a plain tone, "Neither have I!"

Davis says, with a sly grin, "If you think it's weak now, then you'll be in for a huge surprise!"

Sayu asks Davis, curiously, "You know that monster too, Daisuke!?"

Davis says, with a smile, "Sure do!?" Davis takes out his deck, displays his own Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin (600/800) monster card

Tyson says, amazed, "It looks like Jaden was telling the truth and wasn't dreaming everything that he told us about."

Mina thinks in her mind, "It can't be!"

Kino thinks in his mind, "I don't believe it! Is it that time already?"

Jaden then puts one card in the spell/trap slots and says, "Next, I play my Fake Hero spell card! Here's how it works: I can summon one monster from my hand, but I can't attack with it and it comes back to hand at the end of turn!" Jaden puts one card on the spell/trap slots and states, "So, come on out, Bladedge!" Soon after, Elemental Hero Bladedge (2600/1800) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden then says, "And since Aqua Dolphin's ability is in the house! I can ditch one card from my hand to take a monster from yours!" Just then Jaden discards his Hero Kid (300/600) monster card to his graveyard, Aqua Dolphin shoots waves of sound towards Aster's deck, and Jaden calls out, "And the unlucky winner is…!" Soon after, a hologram of Destiny Hero-Captain Tenacious (800/800) appears on the field.

Aster exclaims, shocked, "No! Not him!"

Jaden tells Aster, motioning to his Bladedge, "Now, I choose one monster on my side of the field and if mine has more attack points then yours goes bye-bye! Oh, and you lose five hundred life-points." Just then the hologram of Captain Tenacious explodes and Aster yells out as he loses 500 life-points as well.

Jaden puts two cards in the spell/trap slots, "I'll throw down two face-downs…" The hologram of Elemental Hero Bladedge fades off the field as Jaden puts the card back in his hand and Jaden then states, "…Take back Bladedge and chill out!"

Current Score:

Aster: 7500

Jaden: 8000

Aster tells Jaden, nastily, "Lucky shot!" Aster draws one card from his deck and says, "Now, it is my move! Time for Graceful Charity! I draw three cards from my deck and then discard two from my hand! Now, pay attention class!" Aster draws three cards from his deck, discards his Destiny Hero-Doom Lord (600/800) monster card and Ring of Magnetism Equip Spell card to his graveyard, his Field Spell slot opens up, Aster puts a card inside, and he exclaims, "Now, I play a Field Spell! Mausoleum of the Emperor!" Just then the whole field transformed into some kind of ancient mausoleum with two rock platforms linked by a small narrow bridge with a stairway connected to the platform that Aster was on that lead to a two stone pillars side by side with a flame contained by something in the middle and below them was a foggy valley with hundreds of statues. Aster then says, "And just to make this place even creepier, there are statues in the basement, which we both can use. All we have to do is give up some life-points." Aster's life-points drop by 1000 and two ancient Chinese statues rise up from the foggy basement. Aster then says, "Next, we can use these statues to summon monsters. So, I call to the field my Destiny Hero-Dreadmaster!" The two statues vanish as they are sacrificed and from the sky, Destiny Hero-Dreadmaster (0/0) lands on the field behind Aster in attack mode. Aster then states, "And now that the master of dread is here. I can summon two heroes from the graveyard! And I choose Doom Lord and Captain Tenacious!" Soon after, Destiny Hero-Doom Lord (600/800) and Destiny Hero-Captain Tenacious (800/800) come to the field in attack mode. Aster then shouts out, "And Dreadmaster's attack and defense points are the sum of their attack points!" Dreadmaster's stats rise from 0/0 to 2800/2800! Aster then points at Jaden's new monster and says, "Okay, dolphin boy, let's see what kind of tricks you can do!" Jaden gives a serious look and Aster calls out, "Dreadmaster, turn flipper into fish sticks!" Destiny Hero-Dreadmaster leaps into the air to attack Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin.

Sayu yells out, horrified, "Jaden!"

Jaden calls out, while pressing a button on his duel disc, "Hold it, muscle head! Negate Attack!" Jaden's face-down card was revealed to be the Negate Attack trap card and a huge twist stops Dreadmaster in his tracks. Jaden tells Aster, "Thanks to this, your attack is over before it began! That's all she wrote, pal!"

Aster yells back, angrily, "Listen up! I'm not your pal!"

Back in audience, Hassleberry says, "Someone is touché."

Sakura says, with annoyance, "No, he is just a plain jerk."

Ranma nods his head and he says, annoyed, "Yeah, no kidding!"

Yusuke says, in his usual cocky tone, "Hate to see what happens when the asshole pro gets his ass handed to him."

Hikari says, in a sly tone, "Yeah, no kidding!"

Current Score:

Aster: 6500

Jaden: 8000

Jaden draws one card from his deck and says, "Sheesh. Just trying to be nice." When Jaden looks at the card, he says, "Hey, Aster, thanks for the lowdown on your Field Spell!" Jaden's life-points drop by 1000, two statues come to his side of the field, and Jaden says, as they are sacrificed and he puts a card on his duel disc, "I sacrifice these guys and then I'm going to summon HIM! My Elemental Hero Neos!"

Aster yells out, "There is no such thing, dude! I know every hero there is!" But just then from a hologram of the Milky Way, Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

Back in the audience, Kira tells Aster, nastily, "Hey Phoenix, what do you call that, bastard!?"

Max asks Kenny, "Did you hear of this monster before?"

Kenny tells Max, "No, Max. There is no mention of 'Elemental Hero Neos' in any Elemental Hero series of cards."

Dizzi says, her usual tone, "If you're thinking about asking me, kids, then I won't be so much help."

Ranma yells out, amazed, "Oh, wow! That's so cool! He looks awesome!"

Akane tells Ranma, with a serious tone, "I think that there is more to him than just look, Ranma."

Mina thinks in her mind, seriously, "So, the mythical Neo-Spacians, the inhabitants of Neo-Space, finally appear, but legends speak that they will only come down when the balance of life is threatened in a way that they need to be summoned. The legends speak of an evil light and they will choose one from a group of chosen warriors to use the 'Darkness of Justice' to restore balance to the universe. No one before has seen the Neo-Spacians, but I can tell that it is them! And it looks like legends are coming to pass. The Neo-Spacians have brought forth their 'champions' and they are Lord Jaden and Lord Daisuke. So, another battle for the universe begins…"

Back on the dueling field, Aster says, annoyed, "Fine! But I bet he is totally lame! Come on, spaceman, zap me with your ray gun!"

Jaden tells Aster, with his usual smile, "He doesn't have one, but he does have a cool trick! You see, Neo-Spacians love to work together and when I have one with Elemental Hero Neos, I can combine them to form a new monster." Aster's eyes widen at Jaden's statement and Jaden exclaims, "All right! It is time for some Contact Fusion! Aquos! Combine with Neos to form the Elemental Hero…Aqua Neos!" The two monsters leap into the air, Aqua Dolphin swims through water and goes through the air, Neos joins him as they 'collide' in a bright light, and Elemental Hero Aqua Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

Back in the audience, Alexis asks, stunned, "No way! Did Jaden really go into outer space?"

Syrus replies, "It would seem so."

Catherine tells Syrus and Alexis, "Knowing Jaden sees those monsters, I'm willing to make a good bet about it."

Jaden tells Aster, "Watch what he can do! If I discard one card from my hand, you lose two random cards from your hand! So, I will toss out good old Bladedge!" Jaden discards his Elemental Hero Bladedge monster card, Aqua Neos shoots beams from his eyes, they hit two random cards from Aster's hand, and they vanish as they are sent to the graveyard. Jaden then calls out, "Next, I reveal my face-down! H-Heated Heart!" Jaden's other face-down card is revealed to be the H-Heated Heart spell card and Jaden says, "Thanks to this card, my Aqua Neos gets stronger by five hundred more attack points!" Aqua Neos gives a blue glow as its stats increase from 2500/2000 to 3000/2000! Jaden calls out, "Aqua Neos, destroy his Dreadmaster with Sonic Zoom!" Elemental Hero Aqua Neos launches a twister of water energy that slams into Dreadmaster and destroying it in a huge explosion costing Aster 200 life-points. Jaden exclaims, excitedly, "Gotcha!"

In the audience, Alexis says, with a smile, "Not bad."

Hassleberry exclaims, excitedly, "Excellent work! You've just dismissed his highest ranking soldier!"

Back in the dueling field, Aster growls, angrily, "My Dreadmaster…destroyed. Your Martian mutant is nothing to the power of my Destiny Heroes!"

Jaden says, with a smile, "That's funny. Because…" But just then Aqua Neos gives a bright glow and Jaden looks as he vanishes returning to his deck. Jaden gasps in shock and says, "Neos!"

Back in the audience, Syrus asks, perplexed, "Where did he go?"

Hassleberry says, also surprised, "I think he retreated."

Keiko says, nervously, "Oh boy!"

Back on the dueling field, Jaden asks his deck, in a bit of a panic, "Um…Mr. Neos, we are in the middle of something!"

Back to the audience, Bastion says, "If you ask me, Jaden has to learn more about the power of his new deck."

Kenny says, in his logical tone, "This new type of fusion must have a drawback. Most likely, the fusion monster formed this way can only remain on the field for one turn."

Everyone gasps in shock and Ray says, "That's not good."

Max says, nervously, "No joke, Ray, and it's Aster's turn!"

Syrus says, horrified, "And Jaden defenseless!"

Current Score:

Aster: 2300

Jaden: 3000

Back on the dueling field, Aster says, with a sly grin as he draws one card from his deck, "Since you are fresh out of monsters, I think it's time to show what real monsters can do! And the best way to do is through this! A triple attack!" Aster then calls out, "Doom Lord! Captain Tenacious! And Diamond Dude! Let's do this! Direct Attack!" The three named monsters leaped into the air and dive down on Jaden, landing three direct hits on Jaden, knocking him to the ground and costing him 2800 life-points at once.

Keiko, Sayu, Jun, Davis, Ranma, Tyson, Hassleberry, and Syrus yell in unison from the audience, "Jaden!"

Kelly exclaims, shocked, "He seriously got nailed that time!"

Yusuke says, "Jaden lost nearly all of his life-points."

Aster tells Jaden, "First, you will lose your life-points and then you will lose your dorm!"

Jaden gets to his feet and says, with his usual smile, "What's your rush, Phoenix? I mean come on, I was just getting warmed up! Now, the real duel can begin!"

(Later that evening; as the duel goes on)

As we fast-forward the duel, Jaden proves Aster right with coming back with his new monsters, like Neo-Spacian Air Hummingbird, with the ability to give Jaden 500 life-points for every card in his hand, Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab, who gets stronger with every spell and trap on his opponent's side of the field, and spells like Common Soul that allows Neo-Spacians to share their power with other monsters on the field. Now, returning to Aster's and Jaden's third duel, Aster has his Dark City Field Spell in play with Destiny Hero-Dogma (3400/2400) and Aster has 200 life-points left while Jaden has Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab (900/500), powered up thanks to its ability, in attack mode and three Hero Kids (300/600 X 3) in defense mode, two face-down cards, and 300 life-points remaining. But it was Aster's turn and Dogma was about to attack.

Aster yells out, "Dogma, attack his Flare Scarab! Destroy him!" Destiny Hero-Dogma launches a wave of dark violet energy right at Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab.

Jaden calls out, while pressing a button on his disc, "You've triggered my trap! Kid Guard!" Jaden's face-down card is revealed to be the Kid Guard trap card and Jaden says, "With this, I can sacrifice one of my Hero Kids to negate your attack and then I can take an Elemental Hero from anywhere in my deck and add it to my hand!" One of the Hero Kid monsters leaps in front of Flare Scarab with his arms crosses, nods at Flare Scarab, and the attack slams into him causing the attack to be negate as the Hero Kid fades away.

Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab says, mentally, "I won't let your sacrifice be in vain!" Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab looks at Jaden and tells him, telepathically, "Jaden, you must harness the powers of Neos!" Jaden nods his head, goes through his deck, takes out one card, puts his deck back in his duel disc, and says, displaying his Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) card, "It comes down to this! I choose my Elemental Hero Neos to join my hand!"

Aster puts one card in the spell/trap slots and says, "I'll place a face-down and end my turn!"

Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab gives off some flames, its stats rise to 1300/500, and Jaden tells Aster, with a smile, "Remember, with every face-down, my Scarab gets stronger."

Jaden draws one card from his deck and says, "All right! Go time!"

Just then Aster yells out, "Not so fast! Go, Dogma!" Just then Destiny Hero-Dogma gives off a bright violet glow and Jaden yells out as he is engulfed by the same powerful violet glow. Aster tells Jaden, "Didn't you know? When Dogma is successfully summoned to the field, your life-points get cut in half during your next Standby Phase!" When the glow dies down, Jaden's life-points are cut in half.

Returning to the audience, Syrus exclaims, worriedly, "He's almost out of points."

Hassleberry states, "This isn't good!"

Bastion tells everyone, "One more hit and he's done."

Davis exclaims, "Oh, come on! This duel isn't over, yet!"

Sayu nods her head and she says, seriously, "That's right!"

Ukyo says, seriously, "I hate to agree, but Bastion's right. If that Dogma does hit Jaden's life-points, he's finished."

Tyson yells out, seriously, "Well, Jaden has been in dire situations like this before! He'll pull through!"

Ranma calls out, encouragingly, "Yeah! Let's go, Jaden!"

Alexis says, lowly, "Come on, Jaden…"

Bonaparte exclaims, in his French accent, "That kid's flambé!"

Crowler says, nervously, "I can't watch!"

Back on the dueling field, Jaden laughs and says, excitedly, "Not bad! But I've got some fight left in me!"

Aster tells Jaden, with his own sly smile, "Come on, dude! There is not a card in your deck that can stop me!"

Jaden tells Aster, "Well, maybe not with my old deck, but my new deck is a whole different story! In fact, let me show you, but busting out a new hero that no one has seen before!"

Aster asks, seriously, "What new hero?!"

Jaden tells Aster, as his Field Spell slot opens, "You'll see! But first I play the Field Spell: Neo-Space!" When Jaden puts the card in the Field Spell slot and it closes, Aster's Dark City shatters into pieces and is replaced by a rainbow colored aurora field.

Aster exclaims, "My Dark City!"

Jaden tells Aster, "Thanks to this Field Spell, my Elemental Hero Neos gains five hundred extra attack points! But you must be wondering: Where is Neos?" Both Hero Kids on the field nod their heads and leap into air, Jaden puts his card on his duel disc, points into the air, and exclaims, "The answer is: He's right up there!" Looking up, both Hero Kids vanish in a bright light and Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) takes their place in attack mode. Jaden tells Aster, "And like I said before, his attack points rise!" Elemental Hero Neos's stats increase from 2500/2000 to 3000/2000!

Aster tells Jaden, not impressed, "So, what? He is no match for my Dogma!"

Jaden tells Aster, "Hold on! Did I say I was done? Now, where was I? Oh, yeah! Now, I create a new monster by combining these two together!" Neos and Flare Scarab leap into the air as the two monster cards were sent back to Jaden's deck while Jaden takes a fusion monster card from his fusion deck.

Aster yells out, "That's against the rules!"

Jaden tells Aster, "It's Contact Fusion and its legit! You see, Neo-Spacians can combine without a Polymerization card!" The two monsters combine in a bright light while Jaden puts the card on his duel disc.

While the hero is forming, Aster covers his eyes and says, feeling something inside him, "I remember this feeling. It's like before when dueling was fun." Soon after, a humanoid monster with red and black beetle-like scales, two beetle-like horns going up from his head, and deep green eyes floats down to the field. Aster asks Jaden, "So, this is your new hero, huh?"

Jaden tells Aster, with a smile, "That's him! Elemental Hero Flare Neos!" Elemental Hero Flare Neos has 2500/2000 stats and Jaden tells Aster, "And guess what? His special ability gives him four hundred attack points for every spell and trap on the field! With three cards, it gives him twelve hundred more attack points, but thanks to Neo-Space, Flare Neos gain five hundred more attack points, giving him a total of seventeen hundred more attack points!" Elemental Hero Flare Neos's stats rise from 2500/2000 to 4200/2000!

Aster exclaims, shocked, "That's enough to beat my Dogma!"

Jaden tells Aster, "Yep! That's the point!" Jaden then yells out, commandingly, "Flare Neos, attack!" Flare Neos launches a blast of flames from his hands right Destiny Hero-Dogma.

Aster shouts out, pressing a button on his disc, "I activate D-Shield!" Aster's face-down card is revealed to be the D-Shield trap card, Destiny Hero-Dogma switches to defense mode, and a powerful shield negates Flare Neos's attack.

Jaden asks, perplexed, "What's that?"

Aster replies, with a sly smile, "It's a trap card. When a Destiny Hero is attacked, this card switches to defense mode and it remains on the field. And it will continue to remain on the field as long as my trap card is equipped to him."

Jaden tells Aster, with a smile, "Nice trap, Aster. Really."

Aster tells Jaden, with his sly smile, "Thank you, but flattery will get you no where."

Current Score:

Aster: 0200

Jaden: 0150

Aster draws one card and exclaims, "Stand back!" Aster then says, seeing Elemental Hero Flare Neos still on the field, "I'm going to guess that your Field Spell keeps your monster from vanishing this time."

Jaden smiles and says, "That's right! As long as Neo-Space is on the field, even through he's fused with something else, Neos is sticking around this time."

Aster tells Jaden, "Not quite. My Dogma and I have other plans." Aster looks at the card he drew and says, "First things first, I switch Dogma to attack mode. So, stand up!" Destiny Hero-Dogma switches from defense mode back to attack mode, Aster puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and says, "Next, I will equip him with this spell card! Heavy Storm Blade!" Just then a huge windmill like blade appears attached to Dogma's right arm.

Jaden then says, "Remember, for every spell card, my Flare Neos gets stronger. Four hundred points stronger!" Elemental Hero Flare Neos's stats then increase from 4200/2000 to 4600/2000!

Aster yells out, "Do you think I care?! Not as long as destiny has got my back! Now, attack!" Destiny Hero-Dogma leaps into the air as it prepares to attack Flare Neos.

Back in the audience, the others gasp in shock and disbelief, Ryoko exclaims, "What the?! Has he gone nuts?! His monster is weaker than Jaden's Neos!"

Hinata asks, perplexed, "His monster hasn't grown stronger with that equip spell, so, why is he attacking?"

Mia says, in a serious tone, "Jaden's Flare Neos will crush his monster!"

Hassleberry says, "Yeah, so, why would he engage it?"

Ken tells Hassleberry, seriously, "I think that we will find out, Hassleberry!"

Back in the dueling ring, Aster yells out, "Good question. And I can answer it with just four words: My Heavy Storm Blade! Now, see for yourself!" Just then the huge windmill like blade starts to spin and a huge wind comes over the field. Aster calls out, "When a monster with Heavy Storm Blade attacks, all spell and trap cards other than itself is automatically destroyed!" Just then Aster's D-Shield, Jaden's face-down, and his Field Spell are destroyed.

Jaden calls out, "No way!" Just then the field returns to normal when the huge wind stops blowing.

Aster tells Jaden, with a sly smile, "Now, Neos loses a few attack points." Elemental Hero Flare Neos's stats go down from 4600/2000 to 2900/2000!

Bonaparte exclaims, excitedly in his French accent, "Magnificent!"

Crowler says, worriedly, "Tell me when it's over."

Aster then calls out, "Now, attack!" Dogma rushes over to attack Flare Neos, but Aster doesn't notice two new face-down cards that appear on Jaden's side of the field before Dogma's attack slams into Flare Neos, which causes the blade to crack instead of Flare Neos. Aster exclaims, "No fair!"

Jaden asks Aster, with his sly grin, "What's the problem?" Jaden then says, with a sly smile, "Oh, you must be wondering why my monster didn't bite the dust."

Aster says, seriously, "Maybe."

Jaden tells Aster, displaying a Calling Magic spell card, "I hate to break it to you, but it is your fault. See this. You sent it to my graveyard." Aster gasps in shock and Jaden says, "And when Calling Magic is sent to the graveyard, I get to place two more on the field, giving my Neos a power boost!" Elemental Hero Flare Neos's stats were really 3700/2000, more than Dogma's power.

Aster gasps in shock and he thinks, "That means that Jaden wins! But Sartorius said that I was destined to win this duel! Could Jaden be stronger than destiny?!" At that moment, with Sartorius's 'base', he flips over one of his Tarot cards and his eyes widen when he sees it is The Wheel of Fate card upside down. Soon after, back in Obelisk Arena, Destiny Hero-Dogma is destroyed and Aster yells out as he loses 300 life-points, ending this duel.

Final Score:

Aster: 0000

Jaden: 0150

Jaden tells Aster, "That's game! And a real sweet one, too!"

Syrus exclaims, happily, "Jaden did it!" Syrus and Hassleberry hug each other for a few moments and then when they realize they were doing it, they break away from each other in disgust.

Bastion says, with a smile, "That was quite the duel. Good show."

Alexis then says, "And thanks to Jaden, the Slifer Dorm is safe now."

Hassleberry yells at Jaden, "Way to go, Sarge! You should get a medal of honor!"

Aster goes over to Jaden and tells him, "I've got to say, Jaden, and I rarely say this, but I'm impressed. Now, look, I don't intend to lose again! So, enjoying it while it lasts!"

Jaden tells Aster, in an excited tone, "You know it! It's not every day that one beats a big pro! I'm going to milk this for all that it is worth!" Jaden tells Aster, "Now, the way that I see it, our first duel didn't count since you let me win, so, we are tied."

Aster tells Jaden, "Is that so? Not for long." Aster then walks away from Jaden seemly towards the exit.

Ranma tells Jaden, excitedly, "Way to go, Jay!"

Hikari tells Jaden, with a smile, "Those new monsters were awesome!"

Keiko nods her head and says, "I'll say."

On the meanwhile, Yusuke, Catherine, Kelly, and Kagome stand there with cold serious stares in their eyes and Yusuke thinks in his mind, in a cold serious tone, "Well, this is one interesting turn of events. Master Sartorius will want to know about this."

(On the meanwhile; in the headquarters of the Orichalcos)

In the Orichalcos's headquarters, we find Dartz bowing in front of the three serpent hands. Dartz says, with an evil smile, "It seems that my new associates are doing their duties of the Orichalcos. It wouldn't be long now and this time won't be stopped." Dartz then says, in a serious tone, "However, with the job of reviving the Orichalcos, I need new henchman to carry out my plans and it has to be Chosen Duelist."
