Chapter 10: The Knock-out Edge

"Looks like we will be up against The second seed of Group C Team Hareforce."

Kiba looked determined to win the nationals and carry his team to finals.

"I will do this, I will bring us to finals!"

Kyohei Saito, a Second year 16 year old who has no parents, 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!

"Our first match of the Knock-out Stage Bracket will be Team Ultra Burst vs Team Hareforce!"

"I'll go up first, and if we somehow lose..were gonna be on the edge.."

"Kyohei don't worry, even if you lose we will try our very very best." Ruka cheered on.

"Our first match will be Kyohei Saito against Suzaku Sasaki!"

"So our first match is against their weakest player, I got this I can destroy him."

"Now Stand Up!"

"The"

"VANGUARD!"

"I must win this..I MUST DEFEAT HIM!"

A dark aura surrounds Kyohei.

"No not again..Kyohei!"

The voice never reached him.

"I shall show you my true power!"

KYOHEI: DAMAGE 5 VS SUZAKU: DAMAGE 5

"Alright Vortex Dragonewt attack!"

"Perfect Guard.."

"What, then I guess I have to end my turn.."

"Suzaku, this is it we might have to bring it off to a game three or we lost game two!"

"Oh shut up it aint the-"

"FINAL TURN!"

"Wow Suzaku, he just stole your line!" He exclaims.

"Oh Shut Up!"

"Stride Generation..Phantom Blaster Diablo!"

"Now Skill, I retire my rear guards..and give you a choice to retire yours."

"Alright I'll retire my rear guards, and completely nullify your attack!"

"My My, you are very smart, Triple Drive, Heal Trigger power to Badhabh Caar, second check Draw Trigger, power to Badhabh Caar, and draw.."

"Now Badhabh Caar!"

"Tsch, I can't guard this.."

KYOHEI: DAMAGE 4 VS SUZAKU: DAMAGE 6

GAME OVER, WINNER: KYOHEI SAITO!

"Kyohei takes game number one vs Team Hareforce."

Kiba got out of his seat.

"Let me go, I am next!"

Kiba went up next.

"Now Take down Shiranui Oboro!"

"And Kiba Tsukumoto is taken down in game number two!"

"Oh no..we have to go into a game number three.."

"Please Ruka..please win it for us."

Kiba cries after losing the match.

"I will have to hopefully win this match otherwise we are going to lose.."

"Our final match will be Ruka Tohru against Aki Guo!"

"Stand Up, Vanguard!"

"The Final match and the deciding match that will bring us to the Semi Finals.."

"Alright Mystique Luquier!"

"Guard!"

"Skill and call from the soul Luquier Reverse, and attack!"

"Guard!"

"I see, the turn is over."

"Stride Generation, One Who sees the Stars, Globe Magus!"

"Attack!"

AKI: DAMAGE 4 VS RUKA: DAMAGE 5

"Then my other magus!"

"I will guard the attack."

"Urgh, I end my turn."

"Now, Stride Generation, Silver Thorn Dragon Master, Venus Luquier!"

"Skill, I send two of my Silver Thorns and Venus Luquier gains Plus one Critical, now go Attack!"

"Generation Guard!"

"Triple Drive, First check...Second Check...Third Check a Heal Trigger, power to my Vanguard!"

AKI: DAMAGE 6 VS RUKA: DAMAGE 5

GAME OVER, WINNER: RUKA TOHRU!

"And there you have it folks, Bringing it to three games Team Ultra Burst were able to take down The Hareforce and advance on to the Semi Finals!"

"Looks like Team Specter the tournament favorites took down their opponents in a two to zero match up..thank god we aren't against them, today was just close on the edge.."

Kyohei went back in his room reflecting upon his day realizing that it isn't over and tomorrow there is still one more match left until he goes on to the finals, the one thing he wanted to be in for a while.

"We can do this..we can't afford to go through another two one victory again, too risky..tooo...risky..."

Kyohei's dream...

"Why Hello again, you seemed to be nervous..is it about the Knock-out stages?" Ino asks.

"I just can't go through another match with three games total, we would have to have backs against the walls."

"Well Kyohei, the time is almost coming to an end now, and you are almost done with your task, you must take down Team Specter's leader who goes by the name of Adachi Okida."

"He is the one being controlled by the evil spirit of Edward, and that blank card you found..that was sent by my assistant who currently isn't able to be here with us..good luck my friend, and until we meet again farewell."

"Wait Ino I still got!"

Kyohei wakes up.

Kyohei looks through his deck for the blank card.

"This has to appear in our matches now, I need it to appear somehow!"

The Semi-Final Rounds began and Team Specter without a doubt took down their enemy once more in a fashion of Two to Zero again.

"If we want to face Team Specter, we must go through every single challenge, whether if our backs were against the walls or we sweep them two to zero." Ruka explains.

"This time, I will go first, and then if I win, Kiba will go up next, but if I lose, Kyohei you will go next so we have a more likely chance to make it into a game number three."

Everyone nods.

"I promised myself to carry the team all the way to the finals, and it will stay that way until we win the national tournament!"

"A long way has come for you..Kyohei...Good luck on your match and may the best win." Kyohei heards Ino's voice.

"Alright lets do this team!"

"Our last Semi-Finals match will be The Mist Phantoms against Team Ultra Burst!"

"Ruka Tohru against Haruka Toruka!"

"Now Match Begin!"

Ruka took a significant damage lead against Haruka, who seemed to not even care.

RUKA: DAMAGE 1 VS HARUKA: DAMAGE 4

"Now Zelma will support for Maricica to attack your Vanguard!"

RUKA: DAMAGE 1 VS HARUKA: DAMAGE 5

"It's time to bring you to five damage also..Stride Generation, Bandit Pirate King Rum!"

"Triple Drive, Draw Trigger, power to Gast Dragon, Second check Critical Trigger effects to Gast Dragon, and third check..."

RUKA: DAMAGE 3 VS HARUKA: DAMAGE 5

"Now Gast Dragon attack!"

"No way, Perfect Guard!"

Kiba seemed to have caught on.

"I think Haruka is toying with Ruka, and it's not looking so great, if Ruka can't finish her off the next turn..it's going to be another three game match.."

"Stride Generation, Silver Thorn Dragon Master, Venus Luquier!

"I send two of my rear guards, and Luquier gains one critical!"

"What! What kinds of skill is tha-"

"Then Maricica will attack!"

"No Way, I guard!"

"It's time, Attack Venus Luquier!"

"I hope your ready to lose Tsukumoto!"

"You wish..because its time to!"

Aoki realizing what he has done no longer has anything to guard against Kiba's G Unit.

"Now Shiranui Mukuro attack Skyros!"

Aoki sighs..
