Chapter 4: Regional Tournament Group Stage
Team Ultra Burst enters the Regional Tournaments, in group C.
Kyohei reads through the rules.
"So..apparently its a double round robin? A total of three matches..ok."
Ruka looks at our group to see who they were against in the first match.
"Looks like were against a team called, The Impacts..?"
Kiba, Kyohei, and Ruka were all confident, and hoped that they could get out of the group stages.
"Lets do this Team Ultra Burst!"
Kyohei Saito, a Second year 16 year old who has no parens, and moved to a school called Miyaji Academy, which had a whole different uniform, and the school system was a lot stricter, but that doesn't stop Kyohei from doing what he loves most, Cardfight Vanguard!
"Alright, Hello everybody, I am the MC for this years regional tournament!"
"Starting off will be the group A shown on the board here!"
A board of all the teams were shown on it, and the first match of Group C was Team Ultra Burst, and The Impacts.
"Alrighty let the Regionals begin!"
Kyohei watched the tournament favorites in Group A, Team Acid. a group of people who loved the Megacolony clan.
"Now finish this!"
"Team Acid has defeated their enemy two and zero!"
The Group B favorite seemed to be The Dimension Deities.
"Now attack Beast Deity Ethics Buster!"
"Wow the Dimension Deities also another tournament favorite, defeated their team two and zero!"
Then it was Kyohei's team to finally shine.
"Up next is Team Ultra Burst vs The Impacts."
Kiba puts his gloves on.
"I'm gonna show them who is boss" Kiba boasted.
"First up is Kiba Tsukumoto vs Kanji Sakamoto!"
"Pfft High schoolers are small fries, I got this bro."
Kiba got angry.
"I'll show you whos the small fry!"
"Now Stand Up, My Vanguard!"
Kanji and Kiba were neck to neck against each other.
KIBA: DAMAGE 5 VS KANJI: DAMAGE 3
"Alright finish this!"
"Perfect guard!"
"Pfft I end my turn."
The MC clears his throat.
"Looks like the Ultra Bursts player is in a bit of trouble sitting at 5 damage, while the Impacts player is sitting at 3! Can he do anything to come back?"
"Of course I can, Releasing the Generation Zone!"
"Stride, Conquering Supreme Dragon, Dragonic Vanquisher VOLTAGE!"
The MC was thrilled.
"What a sight the first grade 4 to be seen in the tournament!"
"Now attack!"
Kanji looked at his hand, being able to do nothing.
"I don't guard."
"Trigger check, and I get two critical triggers!"
The entire team of The Impacts were shocked.
"No..did we just lose?!"
"Go Dragonic Vanquisher VOLTAGE finish this!"
KIBA: DAMAGE 5 VS KANJI: DAMAGE 6
GAME OVER, WINNER: KIBA TSUKUMOTO!
"And there you have it folks, Team Ultra Burst wins!"
It was Kyohei's turn to go up next.
"Kyohei do you think your ready?" Ruka asks.
"I think..Ill do great, don't worry about me."
"Alright folks, our next match for Group C, Jean Sakamoto, and Kyohei Saito!"
"So they send a kid with glasses to fight? What a weakling, Ill make sure we win two to one."
"Stand Up!" Jean shouted.
"The!"
"Vanguard!"
"Metalborg, Black Boy!"
"Fullbau!"
Jean took the first turn.
"I draw, and I ride Metalborg, Mist Ghost, and I end my turn."
"I draw, and I ride Blaster Javelin, as long as Fullbau is in the soul he gains 2000 PWR, then Fullbau's skill trigger, letting me add Blaster Dark to my hand."
"I call Apocalypse Bat, and he will support Blaster Javelin in attacking your Vanguard!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 1 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 0
"That will be the end of my turn."
"I'm about to wipe that smile off your face, I draw, and ride Metal Borg, Uru Buster, and call Metal Borg Lionetter!"
"Now Lionetter attacks, gaining power for a Metalborg vanguard!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 1 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 1
"Now my Vanguard will attack!"
"No..guard"
"Hah I got a critical trigger, dealing an extra damage!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 1 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 3
"I end my turn there!"
"I draw, and I ride the Vanguard, Blaster Dark!"
"What the..Blaster Dark?!" Jean shouted.
"Counterblast, retire that Lionetter, and I call Skull witch Neimain, with her skill counterblast, I drop and I draw two cards."
Kyohei drew the one card he needed.
"I call the Witch of Nostrum Arianrhod, and Knight of Darkness, Rugos!"
"Rugos will attack your Vanguard!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 2 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 3
"Now with support from Apocalypse Bat, Blaster Dark will attack your Vanguard!"
"Not so fast, I will guard the attack!"
"Looks like you and I have the same luck."
A critical trigger shined.
"All effects go to Skull Witch Neimain, and she will attack with support from Arianrhod!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 4 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 3
The MC jumped out of his seat.
"Amazing! He turned the game around with a luck of a trigger!"
Jean got very very angry.
"You think you're so good huh punk? Im gonna show you now!"
"I ride, Metalborg Dryon!
"I call Uru, Lionetter, Black Doctor, and Iunbot!"
"With support from Iun Bot, Lionetter will attack gaining additional power!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 4 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 4
"With support from Black Boy, My Vanguard will attack!"
"Generation Guard!"
"WHAT! T-Then Uru attacks!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 4 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 5
"Its Okay..One..More Turn.." Jean thought to himself.
"Final Turn!" Kyohei shouted.
Everyone in the audience were shocked, except for Kyohei's own teammates.
"Spreading its black wings, to cast a shadow upon the battlefield, I ride the Vanguard, Phantom Blaster Dragon!"
"No..NOO!"
"I call Abyss Freezer, and activate Phantom Blaster Dragons, Corrupted Charging Lance!"
Three of Kyohei's units were sacrificed.
"Such a cruel tactic!"
"Now I call, Blaster Dark, and Dark Mage Badhabh caar."
"Badhabh caar's skill, Nightmare Painter is superior called!"
"With support from Apocalypse Bat, Fly Phantom Blaster Dragon, with Apocalypse Bat's skill, another 6000 PWR is added!"
"I dont guard!"
"Checking Twin Drive, get draw trigger, the power to Blaster Dark, I draw."
"Damage check!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 5 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 5
"Second che-"
JEAN: DAMAGE 6 VS KYOHEI: DAMAGE 5
"And there you have it folks! The winner of the first match in Group C is Team Ultra Burst!"
"We did it!" Ruka shouts.
Everyone on the team smiled, and Meiko cheered for Kyohei in the stands.
Group D's Cardfight Counter won their game two to zero as well.
Kiba went up to Kyohei.
"Interesting, how you didn't do your usual plays, using that Break ride version."
"He was getting on my nerves, anyways do you know who were against next?"
Kiba shakes his head.
"No idea, but you can ask Ruka, she might know."
Everyone on the team falls asleep..
Kyohei's dream...
The dark aura surrounds Kyohei again.
"Now Phantom Blaster Dragon, Corrupted Charging Lance!"
As Phantom Blaster Dragon sacrifices the units, and he gain tremendous power.
The blood splattered on Kyohei.
Ruka runs over to stop him.
"Kyohei you can't kill your allies no!"
Phantom Blaster Dragon intercepted, and..
"NOO!" Kyohei yelled waking up at five o clock, five hours early before the second day began.
Kyohei walked out of his room and sat outside to see the Moon going down.
Ruka saw him sitting on the table and ran towards him.
"Kyohei, the moons beautiful as always huh?"
Ruka sits next to Kyohei on the table.
Kyohei's face goes red.
"So Kyohei, do you mind if you go first today?"
Kyohei shakes his head.
"No, I don't mind."
She hugs Kyohei.
"I knew I can depend on you."
Kyohei's face turns even redder, pushing Ruka away.
"Uhh..Lets not..please.."
"I want him.." Ruka confessed to herself.
The Second Day of Group Stages began.
Team Acid, and The Dimension Deities beat their enemies again two to zero.
"Alright folks its time for the 5th match of the day, starting with Group C, today its Team Ultra Burst, versus the Inverse Intelligence!"
"Starting from Team Ultra Burst, is none other than Kyohei Saito, and from the Inverse Intelligence is Yuki Kisho!"
Kyohei takes a deep breath.
"Stand up!"
"The!"
"VANGAURD!"
"Young Dragon, Dinobaby!"
"Fullbau!"
KYOHEI: DAMAGE 3 VS YUKI: DAMAGE 2
"Now Stride Generation, Destruction Tyrant Full Bladerex!"
The audience was thrilled with an appearance of a Grade 4.
"Wow the Inverse Intelligence Yuki Kisho, has brought out a Grade 4!"
"Now Bladerex attack!"
Kyohei drops a card.
"Generation Guard, and Charon will shield it.."
"Skill of Bladerex, since my heart has "Rex" in its name, then I call one unit from Bind Zone. I superior call it and it gains 4000 PWR, Triple drive and one critical trigger, all effects to him, and he will attack!"
KYOHEI: DAMAGE 5 VS YUKI: DAMAGE 2
"Looking at the field, Yuki from the Inverse Intelligence is sitting at two damage, while Kyohei is sitting at five damage, but has his powerful Phantom Blaster Dragon out!"
Kyohei looks at the field, and sees a vision.
"What is th-!"
He sees a card linking to another card, and a blank card shining.
"I got it, Final Turn!"
Everyone was shocked.
Kiba jumped out of his seat.
"Is he out of his damn mind?! Just look at the-"
Ruka puts her hand over his mouth.
"I think he's got a plan, to somehow win."
"Arise and Destroy, My NEW POWER!"
"N-NEW POWER?!"
"I ride, Blaster Dark Diablo!"
Ruka saw Kyohei, and Blaster Dark merging into one.
"His avatar!" She yelled.
"Now, Releasing the Generation ZONE!"
"Come forth from the darkness and bring me your sword that leads to destiny, Stride GENERATION!"
"Dark Dragon, Phantom Blaster Diablo!"
The MC jumped out of his seat in excitement.
"There it is folks! The Grade 4 of a Shadow Paladin!"
"Skill, Counterblast and flip over another copy, Phantom Blaster Diablo gains 10000 PWR and a critical, while retiring three of my units, but you have a choice of retiring two rear guards."
Yuki thinks about it, but knows his time is limited.
"I won't let you retire at all!"
Kyohei smirks. "Excellent, your decision has led to your demise, since you did not retire any rear guards, you cannot guard this attack!"
"Now Fly Phantom Blaster Diablo, with support from Apocalypse bat, attack his Vanguard!"
"Well, the only way for Mr. Kyohei Saito to win, is if he somehow draws two critical triggers!"
"Triple Drive, check Abyss Freezer, Draw trigger, power to my Vanguard and I draw, Second check, Grim Reaper a critical trigger, all effects to my Vanguard, and third check, Death Feather Eagle!"
"TWO CRITICAL TRIGGERS!" The MC Yells in the mic.
"No..This can't be, Damage che-"
Four cards flew to the damage zone, none of which were a heal trigger.
"And there you have it folks, the winner is Kyohei Saito of Team Ultra Burst!"
Everyone claps, and cheers.
"You did great Kyohei, and I guess a bit lucky too." Ruka complimented getting ready for the second match.
The MC Clears his throat.
"Ahem, Our second match for Group C from Team Ultra Burst is Ruka Tohru! and from the Inverse Intelligence is Nauto Kisho!"
"May the best win."
"Stand Up, Vanguard!"
MEANWHILE...
A man with very long red hair, along with a woman who has blue hair, enters inside the building, where the Regionals were held.
"So, do you know where the card fighting is held at sir?" The man asks to an employee.
"I don't know." The Employee answered back mopping.
"Well where is I don't know?"
The employee face palms.
"Nevermind, I don't know is down there."
"Well where down there?"
"If you say one more word, I will beat you up here!" The employee angrily asks.
"...Word.."
The employee breaks his pencil, and marches out of his office to confront the man, who already dashed into the stage.
RUKA: DAMAGE 5 VS NAUTO: DAMAGE 5
"Now Silver Thorn Dragon Master, Mystique Luquier, finish this!"
"Generation Guard!"
"Triple Drive! First check, second, third!"
"Oh would you look at that, Ruka Tohru didn't pull any triggers!"
"Now attack Maricica!"
"I guard."
"This is unfortunate for Team Ultra Burst, they might find their first loss on the second day!"
"I draw, and Stride Generation, and he will attack!"
RUKA: DAMAGE 6 VS NAUTO: DAMAGE: 5
GAME OVER, WINNER: NAUTO KISHO!
"And there you have it folks, the winner is Nauto bringing Team Ultra Burst, and the Inverse Intelligence to a game number three!"
Ruka walks over to her team with a sad face.
"i'm sorry.."
Kiba gets up, and puts his old deck down, to bring out a new one.
"Don't worry, I will beat them."
"Next up is Kiba Tsukumoto, and Hiro Masaki!"
"And let the battle begin!"
"Stand Up, Vanguard!"
"Beast Deity Riot Horn!"
"Stealth Dragon, Madoi!"
Kyohei and Ruka were shocked.
"He completely changed his clan.."
The weird man noticed a card fight and decided to sit down next to Meiko.
"So little one, isn't the card fight great!"
"Hm..I don't know."
"Yes yes, I don't know is the perfect answer! Now are you here because a family member is here?"
Meiko points down to Kyohei.
"Go I ride Beast Deity Azure Dragon, and I call Beast Deity Golden Anglet!"
"Seems like the most popular deck for the day, is the Nova Grapplers Beast deity deck, seen it in all three groups today!"
"Now with support from Riot Horn, go Azure Dragon attack his Vanguard!"
Hiro drew one stand trigger, standing his Golden Anglet.
"Go Golden Anglet attack!"
"Guard!"
HIRO: DAMAGE 3 VS KIBA: DAMAGE 4
"I end my turn."
"I draw, and I ride, Demon Stealth Dragon, Shiranui Oboro!"
"Stride Generation, Enma Stealth Rogue, Mujinlord!"
"Oboro's skill Dominate Anglet."
"Domina-"
Hiro was caught off guard when Golden Anglet attacked his Vanguard.
HIRO: DAMAGE 4 VS KIBA: DAMAGE 4
"What is this! Hiro's own rear guard attacking the Vanguard!"
"Now Mujinlord attack!"
"Perfect Guard!"
"Tsch, turn end."
"Your gonna pay for that, Stride Generation, Ultimate Beast Deity, Ethics Buster Catastrophe!"

"Now go Brainie Papio!"
"I guard!"
"Hatred chaos, with support from Riot Horn!"
"Generation Guard!"
"And Kiba guarded against a series of attacks, what will he do now!?"
"Stride Generation! Evil-Eye Wisdom King Shiranui Rinne!"
"Skill, counterblast, choose two cards from your hand and call them to your rear guard!"
"Alright, Herarti Destroyer, and Frog master."
"Those two get dominated, and GB3 of Rinne, they both gain 10000 PWR and one critical!"
"Now Frog Master will attack your Vanguard!"
"What, I guard!"
"Herarti Destroyer!"
"I guard again!"
Hiro has only one card left in his hand.
"Now Rinne will attack your Vanguard!"
"Generation Guard, and intercept!"
"Triple Drive, Draw, and heal trigger, all power goes to Genkai."
"Kiba here has two more attacks left to go, Genkai and Fuurai!"
"Supported by Seizui, go Genkai!"
HIRO: DAMAGE 5 VS KIBA: DAMAGE 5
"Now go Fuurai finish this!"
"NO-NOO!" Hiro yelled out.
HIRO: DAMAGE 6 VS KIBA: DAMAGE 5
"What a close match, and the victory goes over to Team Ultra Burst!"
"Holy crap man, that was so close, he could've won, and he only had his Rear Guards to attack." The weird man chuckled.
The weird man looks at Meiko.
"So kid what is your name?" The weird man asks.
"Why?"
"Okay, Hello Why nice to meet you!"
This ticked Meiko off.
"My name isn't why you got that!"
"Okay, Hello you got that!"
The rest of the group stages went on.
The weird man walks up to Kyohei.
"Hi there, you must be you got that's sister!"
Kyohei was confused.
"Wait who now?"
"Oh is her name wait who now? She must've lied to me, How dare she!"
Meiko runs up to the man and slaps him.
"Hey, Meiko thats not polite!"
The weird man put up a smile.
"Oh it's okay my wife does this to me all the time, now her name was Meiko?"
He pats her head.
"So, Meiko's brother I want you to take these cards, and show me the power in tomorrow's match!"
The weird man hands him two cards, and leaves.
"Huh..the power."
Kyohei decides not to sleep, afraid to get another nightmare of Ruka, and needed to rebuild his deck.
"There has got to be something that would work!"
Suddenly there was a knock on his door.
"Who..who is it?"
He heard the sound of a weird man's voice.
Kyohei sat there silently in the room.
His door ended up breaking.
"My my, its rude when you don't even answer the door!"
Kyohei was surprised to see the same Red Haired man from before, that gave him the two cards.
"Oh Hi, Meiko's Brother, you are in my room! How nice."
Kyohei still saw Kiba in the room.
"Wait, sir I think you are in the wrong roo-"
"No no, room 216 right?"
"Y-yes.."
"I'm in the right room then, say you should get some sleep, I don't mind another person next to me!"
Kyohei glanced at him.
"Sounds..gay.."
Kyohei tried to sleep as far as possible from the man.
Kyohei's dream...
The weird man was holding Ruka in his arms.
"Come and get her kid!"
"I ride Blaster Dark!"
He also rides a unit, none that he has seen before.
He strikes Kyohei, and knocks him out.
"It's time SEE YA LATER TOHRU!"
He raises his swords...
Kyohei wakes up.
He grabs the two cards and sits outside under the moon light.
He hears a door opening, and expected Ruka, but he saw the weird red haired man again.
"Good Morning, Meiko's Brother!"
"What are you doing up so early?"
He smiles.
"You got out of bed early, so I got of bed early, silly."
Ruka also came outside.
"Kyohei, who is this?"
"Oh, Hi, I usually don't go by Who is this, but salutations!"
"I'm..uhh"
"Hello uhh!"
"Wait..no no no no, I am Ruka."
"Hello, Wait..no no no no-"
Ruka was ticked off.
"Okay just shut up for one second please!"
The man realized something.
"I see, i'll leave you two alone then."
The weird man watches them from a distance, seeing something romantic.
"This is really lovely."
"Oh yeah Kyohei, may I see those cards?"
Kyohei gives the cards to Ruka.
"Wow! I think these are a great addition!"
"Well, I'm going first today, and I'll make sure we get a win for me!"
Kyohei smiles.
"Best of luck."
The third day of the group stages begun.
"Alright let the battles begin!"
This time, Team Acid, had a hard time beating their third enemy.
"What an Upset, Team Acid lost againsts the Divine Dragons, two to one!"
In group B, The Dimension Dieties were still undefeated two to zero.
"Next is Group C's Inverse Intelligence, and The Impacts!"
"Now go, Ethics Buster Catastrophe!"
"And there you have it folks, The Inverse Intelligence beat The Impacts in their first game!"
The Impacts suddenly obliterate the Inverse Intelligence in their second game.
"Whoa, there you have it folks the Inverse Intelligence lost the second match, and now the deciding factor comes to a game three!"
Jean, and Hiro get into a full on brawl, each dealing at least one damage to each other each turn.
"Now go Finish this, Brainie Papio!"
Jean laughs.
"Time to finish you off, FINAL TURN!"
"Stride Generation, and attack!"
JEAN: DAMAGE 5 VS HIRO: DAMAGE 6
That last match blew the chances of the Inverse Intelligence of making it to the Knock-out stages.
"Now for the next matches, Team Ultra Burst vs Team Sonicboom!"
Kyohei looked at the team, and saw that they were also in high school like they were.
"The first match is, Ruka Tohru, vs Kiri Onishi!"
Both players get ready.
"Stand Up, My Vanguard!"
The weird man, and the blue haired woman sat next to Meiko again.
"Why are you always here, It's not like your my dad or anything."
He chuckled.
"Your just a funny one aren't you, it's nice being around people, speaking of which your brother might go next."
"Now go, Limit Break of Silver Thorn Dragon Tamer, Luquier in the soul, then I call it to rear guard!"
"Attack!"
"And the winner of game one is Ruka Tohru!"
The weird man smiled.
"Lets see if your brother can use the power."
"For the second match, is Tsuyoi Aizu vs Kyohei Saito!"
"Ahh so your brother's name was Kyohei, not Meiko's Brother!"
"Now, Slash Shade, attack Blaster Dark!"
KYOHEI: DAMAGE 4 VS TSUYOI: DAMAGE 3
"Now my Vanguard will attack!"
"I guard!"
"Twin Drive, first check, second check!"
"Oh what a shame, Tsuyoi here couldn't draw any triggers!"
"I end my turn!"
"I draw."
The card Kyohei drew was the same one the weird man gave to him.
Kyohei thought for a moment, on what to do.
The weird man up in the stands knew what was going on.
"Yes ride it, ride it!"
"I ride the Vanguard, Whirlwind of Darkness, Vortimer Diablo!"
This pleased the weird man a lot.
"Skill, counterblast and soul blast, I search my deck for a rear guard, and superior call it, come out Blaster Dagger!"
"Now Stride Generation!"

"Both players are sitting at five damage, and its the start of Kyohei's turn."
"Final Turn!" Kyohei shouted.
The MC was thrilled, "Kyohei calls a Final Turn!"
"Stride Generation, Dark Dragon Spectral Blaster Diablo!"
The weird man jumped out of his seat in excitement landing in Meiko's lap.
Meiko was very angry.
"Get off of me!" She yelled trying to get him up.
The weird man almost fell.
"Now Vortimer's skill, Charon to the rear guard, and Since I strided Spectral Blaster Diablo, Blaster Javelin, to rear guard!"
"Now I call Dark Mage, Badhabh Caar, with his skill, Come out Death Feather Eagle!"
"Now Eagle supports Badhabh Caar and he will attack!"

"You'll see, Spectral Blaster Diablo will attack!"
"Perfect Guard!"
"Triple Drive..First check, second check, Grim Reaper, all effects to Spectral Blaster Diablo, Third check, Grim Reaper again, and all the effect to Spectral Blaster Diablo!"
Meiko was confused.
"Excuse me sir, why would he give the trigger effects to his Vanguard thats rested?" Meiko asks.
"Your brother is a very smart boy!"
"Skill of Spectral Blaster Diablo, Counterblast and Retire, Blaster Dagger, and Death Feather Eagle, and He stands once more, losing two drives!"

Chapter 4: Regional Tournament Group Stages
THE END
Note from author- starting now is going to be a question and if answered correctly you get a pat on the back, and an imaginary cookie. Which canon vanguard character appeared last, and this chapter?
Yes this chapter was long, and yes the next chapter is going to be the entire Knock-out stages(except for the Finals). and also, I do realize the main character and his friends do have some stupid decks that most people in the story won't be able to deal with. I will try to make sure everything kind of balances out so the user with that stupid deck will lose to this, but win against this and so on. Since a lot of Minor characters were introduced, I will not feature any of the Cards used, except the ones used by the Main characters.
Card Bios:
Whirlwind of Darkness, Vortimer Diablo (3): [GB2] Choose one of your rear-guards, and retire it. During your turn, when your unit with Diablo in its original card name Stride, you may pay the cost.

Then, if your Dark Dragon Spectral Blaster Diablo is on Vanguard, search your deck for up to one grade 1 card, and call it to (RC). The units called with this effect get [Power]+3000 until end of turn. Shuffle your deck. [Counter Blast (1) & Soul Blast (1)] When this unit is placed on Vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, search your deck for up to one grade 1 card, call it to Rear Guard, and shuffle your deck.
