A/N Duel Script for the second duel and all the speech within were done byRomadrox8975. All credit goes to him for the duel. Thanks as ever dude. He has also added in some of his own lines and ideas across the story again.
"Marina…. you beat my son." Leo said.
"Yes... I did Professor." Marina was kneeled down to Leo in the throne room, two days had passed since the duel and Marina had finally left hospital.
"Reiji is currently nursing a bruised ego in his room, he is no longer in hospital but he is slightly sore." Leo replied.
"But what about the mind scan from Cobra? Did I buy us enough time?!" Marina said with eagerness.
"We're still going through the results. It'll take time." Leo replied.
"Okay, I'm pleased I was able to gain results." Marina said back.
"Yes… you did. You were punished for trying to cover up Gloria's disobedience and as a result you bare the failures of the other summoning methods as a mark of shame."
"Yes Professor." Marina said in a nervous tone.
"You are not forgiven yet so the deck remains in place, but you begun your path to redemption. As such, I shall grant you a small request to prove my thankfulness." Leo said. Marina looked up with confusion.
"I… erm…. I want Gloria back!" she said with eagerness.
"I said small!" Leo replied in anger. "Gloria is undergoing re-educating! Now… try again!"
"Sorry! I erm…. Reira's bear!"
"A…. bear?!" Leo said in confusion.
"She loves it! Mrs Akaba… took it away from her."
"Sigh…..wish granted." Leo said. "I'm disappointed, I give you a chance for a reward and you choose a bear… I thought you told me you weren't getting attached to that child!"
"I'm not! Just as I care for my squad I…."
"Whatever, I have more important things to worry about, now…. get out of my sight! Your lack of ambition is concerning." Marina got up and turned. Her face tensed up.
"Fine! I shall show you Professor! Make Serena an Obelisk Blue! If she fails, I will fall on my sword and you can turn me into a card! Full stakes on the line!"
"Hmmm…. I shall agree with your wish." Leo said, more impressed that Marina had the nerve to request another. "Serena's skills have been improving and she doesn't' look out of place in Ra Yellow… very well."
"Thank you Professor." Marina walked out.
Hallway
"An entrance exam to Obelsik Blue?!" Serena said in shock.
"That's correct." Marina said proudly.
"How'd you manage to get that?!"
"You earned it Serena, nothing else." Marina replied. "Now where's Yuri?"
"Overseeing some Ra Yellow's." Serena replied. Marina's duel disk bleeped.
"What is it?" Marina replied. Ryo was on the screen.
"Marina… we have had word of Resistance sightings…. me and Shark are heading back…. "
"And what does that have to do with me?" Marina replied. "I succeeded in the Ritual invasion, I don't need lessons."
"Are you turning down a chance to fight for the utopia?" Ryo asked smugly.
"How dare you question my commitment? I'll be there!" Marina angrily hung up.
"Marina you're tired! That duel made you faint, you can't go! Leo isn't asking for you to go!"
"No but I'm on thin ice already… I need to earn his trust back. Serena… this is something I need to do." Marina departed with a concerned Serena looking on.
Grace's Dorm
Inside Grace's dorm was Grace alongside Marina and Reira. Reira was sitting on the bed while Marina and Grace were outside where the child couldn't hear them. Reira had her bear back.
"I also have to watch out for Akaba's son?" Grace said, Marina was shaking her head. "Well, at least I can bother that attractive idiot." Marina was shocked.
"But he's an idiot, how can you handle it?"
"He's an attractive idiot. Also annoying him is what makes me happy in the morning…. but you owe me after this."
"I also want to say sorry Grace ... about Gloria."
"No Marina it's fine ... Gloria made a mistake ... we cannot disobey the Professor. Gloria must learn Academia is before anyone else." Marina looked depressed at Grace before she departed.
Teleporter Room
Ryo and Shark stood firm in the teleporting room. Neither looked at each other.
"So scum… you're fine with carding your former friends?" Ryo questioned.
"You don't seem to understand that I'm on your side now!" Shark replied.
"Not by choice… your memories were rewritten."
"I fight for Academia now… end off." Shark said back. "I turned Kaito into a card!"
"You did…. but I still don't trust you. I was given an order, one year before we invaded to find a top Xyz duelist. I wouldn't have done it had I known Academia would bring you to our side." Ryo said.
"I'm glad Cobra changed my memories… Xyz being invaded showed how weak my old-self was." Shark replied.
"You know it's all fake and you still stand by us…!"
"He used my memories to discover Xyz's weakness, I helped! You're just jealous that an outsider is better than you." Shark replied smugly. Ryo grabbed Shark by his shirt and held up his fist.
"You owe me respect!" Marina walked in and saw Ryo holding Shark by the shirt.
"Break it up you two!" Marina said as she stopped the fight.
"Oh look… the disgrace of Academia!" Ryo teased.
"You invited me!" Marina replied. "Now… let's see how you work… Commander Marufuji!"
"Now that's respect! Hey Marina… could you card Gloria?!" Ryo asked with a taunting tone.
"Ug..ugh..um…"
"Weak!" Ryo pointed out. "No stuttering! No thinking! That's what I do, I'm a machine! Leo HAS made a mistake!"
"I get results!" Marina argued back. "I lead Ritual to destruction… I just have more of a heart!"
"I carded my own brother because he was weak! If Leo ordered you too, you would have no choice!"
"But he won't since he sees my positives! I've carded 956 people!"
"And Shark has 1119! I lead with 1285! My point is you've not carded anyone you care about, I have!"
"You're a big child Ryo! Now just open the teleport!" Ryo hit the button and a black portal opened. Ryo stepped through with pride.
"Ignore him." Shark said.
"Why did you save me at the coliseum?" Marina said. "Serena said you carried me out?"
"You treat me with more respect… I believe in respecting those who respect you." Shark walked through the teleported. Marina raised a slight smile but she felt bad that Shark's memories were fake.
…..
"KEEP MOVING!" yelled a female in a cloak. A young boy and the female were running along the ruins of Heartland. An Obelisk Blue male student had an Ancient Gear Solider out; the female had a duel disk on.
"You can't escape! We're in a duel!" said the student.
"Guess I can't escape you… stay right behind me." the female said to the boy. Her duel disk was just like the rest of the Xyz resistance, purple. "I draw!"
Turn 2
Solider LP: 4000 Hand: 4
Female LP: 4000 Hand: 6
"I summonBlizzard Falcon!" A blue and green bird emerged.
Blizzard Falcon ATK: 1500 DEF: 1500 Water/Winged-Beast/LVL 4
"I playBlizzard Jet!" The female showed a Spell. "Blizzard Falcon gains 1500 attack!"
Falcon ATK: 3000
"Since Falcon has higher attack then its original amount, it inflicts 1500 points of damage!" Falcon shot down icy shards onto the student .The female pulled her cloak down and revealed a female with blue hair.
Student LP: 4000 – 2500
"You're….. Rio Kamishiro!" the student said in confusion.
"You took my brother and I shall take your life! I play the Spell Blizzard Vision! I target a Water Monster and then this Spell can be summoned as a Monster! It gains the same stats except its zero attack and defence!" The Spell took the shape of Falcon.
Blizzard Vision ATK: 0 DEF: 0 Water/Winged Beast/LVL 4
"I overlay my two level fours!" Both Monsters flew into the Xyz whirlpool. "Flying deadly ice onto the battle, breath your cold heart onto invaders, appear rank four…. Ice Beast Zerofyne!" A sliver warrior in the shape of a snowflake emerged.
Ice Beast Zerofyne ATK: 2000 DEF: 2200 Water/Winged Beast/Rank 4/OU: 2
"I play the SpellZero Blade! I can attack twice with Zerofyne and your Ancient Gear Solider loses 1000 attack!"
Solider ATK: 300
"Damn you…!" said the student.
"ZEROFYNE! " The Xyz Monster reigned down numerous shards of ice which hit Ancient Gear Solider. The student was sent across the field after his Monster was destroyed.
Student LP: 2500 – 800
"Zerofyne… END THIS!" Zerofyne slammed into the student as he landed face down on the field.
Student LP: 800 – 0
"Don't watch this." said Rio as the child covered his eyes. Rio held out her duel disk and quickly turned the student into a card. The wind from across the city swept through the ruins. Rio looked up at the wreckage of Heartland tower in the distance.
Underground
Rio walked down into the Resistance base. It was located in an old arcade underground. The room was a huge hall and enough space for many tents and other needed equipment.
As she walked down, the boy ran off to his parents who were nearby. Rio slightly smiled as he ran off.
"Rio!" said a female voice. "You took longer than expected, I thought-"
"Come on Anna… did you really think I'd lose?" Rio replied.
"Oh come on now… I wasn't going to say that." Anna said. Anna wore a short-sleeved pink and white shirt with white shorts. She had white boots along with a red scarf around her left elbow.
"I came across this missing boy…. somehow he walked out…. and I took down a Fusion user as well." Rio had the leftover card of the boy and pinned it on the wall. There were other Academia students on the wall.
"Quite a collection." Anna said.
"Yeah… it's needed to remind us to rid the world of these scum!" Rio replied.
"We will get Ryoga back, Rio." Anna said.
"Even if we did… will people like Haruto and the others accept him back…. he carded Kaito."
"It wasn't him!" Anna replied. "I know what's like to lose a brother!"
"I… I know…. sorry. I know losing Allen was hard for you." Rio explained. "I shall take them all out!" Rio slammed her hand on the wall.
Anna held the hand with which Rio hit the wall.
"Calm my love, we'll do it, we'll finish all of them," Ana said as she put her hands on the cheeks of the frozen queen. Both looked and began to join their mouths, the kiss lasted a couple of seconds but it was one of those moments that they loved to share.
"Cut it out." said a male voice from a far.
"Shun!" said the two.
"I need you two to stop kidding and get back to actual work." Shun replied.
"Such a grumpy person." Anna said.
Shun walked up the stairs and there were high walls surrounding the entrance with Resistance duelists guarding the gate. Shun looked on through the gates.
"Any time Academia could find this place and attack…." he thought. Shun walked across the surface and found a male in a shed next to one of the fences.
"Faker." Shun called out.
"Shun!" Faker replied. Faker had blonde hair and wore a lab coat.
"Is there no-way you can make our base invisible?" Shun asked.
"No my boy… I'm sorry…. I tried everything but we don't have the equipment anymore…. Maybe if you went back to Standard and got help from that Reiji person who built something similar I could do it?" Faker replied.
"I'm not going back to Standard and that's that." Shun said firmly. Shun walked off before Faker could reply.
Back inside the base, Rio and Anna were serving up food to guests and the two looked bored.
"This is pathetic! I should be out there taking out Academia!" Anna yelled in frustration.
"I know that!" Rio agreed. "But Shun as leader has his set routine..."
"Don't let him hear you say that." said another female. She wore a battered cloak with pink hair.
"Luna, hey." Anna said kindly.
"Every time we take down a few of Academia, they bring double the soldiers next time." Luna said. "We need allies from other dimensions but Shun just won't budge on his no-trusting stance…"
"And Faker is loyal to Shun so he won't allow us to cross dimensions as per Shun's orders." Anna added.
"I know…" Rio said. "Our numbers are reducing while Academia gain in strength…." Rio saw a figure approach and the three quickly begun to change subject.
"It's okay guys." said a male. He wore a white uniform with a red neck scarf.
"Hey Haruto." Rio said.
"I heard you talk about my dad and you're right…. we need to convince him to allow us to travel to the other dimensions!" Haruto said.
"But Shun… ever since Ruri and Yuto departed…. he's not been the same." Luna said.
"His mission…. is just to destroy and take out the enemy…" Anna said. "It's about time we spoke with him!"
"It's my turn along with Haruto to find survivor cards…. we had better go." Luna said.
"Okay… but be careful." Rio said.
"Yeah we'll stick to the safe routes that we cleared out." Haruto said. Haruto and Luna both departed.
Xyz Academia Base
Ryo, Shark and Marina all left the Xyz base and departed towards Heartland.
"I'll take out the Resistance now we have reports of their whereabouts." Ryo said. "We had a sighting just north."
"That would make sense." Shark replied.
"And yet you failed to mention any of them!" Ryo shouted.
"I can't recall much from before!"
"Boys just stop! You're giving me a headache…" Marina replied.
"You're going to watch Shark duel, Marina." Ryo said. "Shark… go card some Xyz scum…." Ryo ordered.
Path
Luna and Haruto came to a twin-path. Haruto and Luna looked at each other.
"Okay… I'll look down here." Luna said while Haruto nodded.
"And I'll take the other path… I'll be fine." Haruto said.
"You've grown massively Haruto, Kaito would be proud."
"I know and I will try to get Shark back for you as well ... I know you loved him ... but I also want to avenge the memory of Kaito..." Haruto said confused and doubtful of his actions
Luna took him by the arm. "Do what you can ... I do not blame you for what happens. Okay we better go before Academia come… it should be safe… they've never returned to this area since we cleared it." Luna said. Both ran down their paths.
Luna walked down her path and looked across the debris of Heartland. Broken buildings were everywhere and collapsed walls. Finding any cards of the Xyz residents was going to be hard.
As Luna continued to search, she heard whistling. Luna looked spooked as she looked around.
"WHO IS IT?!" she shouted. Ryo emerged from the shadows with a bright smirk. "You?! You're that commander!"
"Yes and I see I finally found a Resistance scum." Ryo said. "I'm surprised… that was quick!"
"How'd you find me?!" Luna panicky replied.
"Since you rats went into hiding… we increased our drones in the skies… lucky we found you!" Ryo said as he activated his duel disk. It was black with a red sword blade.
"Whatever! You took Shark from me and I shall take your life!" Luna used her duel disk.
"This won't take long… I don't even know who you are!" Ryo said. "Only Kaito was known due to his skills!"
"Shut it and duel!"
Turn 1
Luna LP: 4000 Hand: 5
Ryo LP: 4000 Hand: 5
"I shall begin! I shall rid this dimension from you and your squad!" Luna said with determination.
"Funny…. the rest of your comrades said the same thing…. look where they are now….!" Luna gritted her teeth.
"I loved Ryoga…. and Academia took him from me!"
"Stop whinging and duel!" Ryo hit back.
"Fine! I summon Satellarknight Vega!" A female in a purple dress with a golden frame around her appeared.
Satellarknight Vega ATK: 1200 DEF: 1600 Light/Warrior/LVL 4
"Her effect allows me to bring outSatellarknight Alsahm!" A young male in golden amour emerged holding a bow and arrow.
Satellarknight Alsahm ATK: 1400 DEF: 1800 Light/Warrior/LVL 4
"When Alsahm is summoned, you take 1000 damage!" Alsahm fired his arrow and Ryo who got hit in the chest. Ryo merely brushed off the pain.
"Is that all you can do?!"
Ryo LP: 4000 – 3000
"Not at all! I overlay my two level fours! This is forRyouga! I Xyz Summon, rank four, Darktellarknight Batlamyus!"
Darktellarknight Batlamyus ATK: 2600 DEF: 550 Dark/Warrior/Xyz/Rank 4/OU 2
"By detaching an Overlay Unit as well discarding a card, I can Xyz summon a Light Tellarknight Monster from my extra deck! I send a second Alsahm to my graveyard." Luna sent the card to the grave while an Overlay Unit detached.
Batlaymus OU: 1
"I Xyz Summon once more!" Batlamyus flew into the Xyz whirlpool. "Emerge rank five, Stellarknight Delteros!" A warrior in blue amour emerged with golden wings.
Stellarknight Delteros ATK: 2500 DEF: 2100 Light/Warrior/Xyz/Rank 4/OU 2
"I set one card and end my turn!"
Turn 2
Luna LP: 4000 Hand: 1
Ryo LP: 4000 Hand: 5
"My move!" Ryo drew with a fierce speed. "I summon Cyber Dragon Core!" A small robotic snake emerged.
Cyber Dragon Core ATK: 400 DEF: 1500 Light/Machine/LVL 2
"When Normal Summoned I can add a Cyber Spell or Trap to my hand! I addCyber Repair Plant. Now Cyber Dragon Core is treated as a Cyber Dragon while on the field… meaning I can do this!" Ryo showed a Polymerization to Luna.
"Just play it!"
"As you wish! I fuse Core and a Cyber Dragon in my hand! Prepare to suffer! I Fusion Summon!Cyber Twin Dragon!" A double-headed sliver dragon emerged. It had no legs and one long tail.
Cyber Twin Dragon ATK: 2800 DEF: 2100 Light/Machine/Fusion/8
"Now you shall suffer just like your comrades! Cyber Twin Dragon… Evolution Twin Burst!"
"Not happening! Go Half Unbreak! This stops my Monster from being destroyed this turn and all damage I take is halved!"
"But you still take damage!" The beams of light hit Delteros and Luna was sent flying backwards.
Luna LP: 4000 – 3850
"Here's news you didn't wish to hear! Twin Dragon can attack twice per turn!" Twin Dragon shot another beam forward and Deltros was again hit.
Luna LP: 3850 – 3600
"I set two cards and end my turn." Ryo said. "Well that was weak from me… I'll step it up next turn!"
Turn 3
Luna LP: 3600 Hand: 1
Ryo LP: 3000 Hand: 2
"I draw!" Luna replied. "Appear Satellarknight Altair!"
Satellarknight Altair ATK: 1700 DEF: 1300 Light/Warrior/LVL 4
"Altair can bring back a tellarknight Monster in defense, return Alsahm!" Alsaham returned with a shining glow in defence.
Satellarknight Alsahm ATK: 1400 DEF: 1800 Light/Warrior/LVL 4
"When summoned you take 1000 damage!" Alsaham went forward to Ryo again and he embraced the hit.
"COME ON THEN!" Ryo yelled with a sadistic look. The Monster slashed his shoulder and Ryo look unimpressed. He felt little to no pain.
Ryo LP: 3000 – 2000
"You dare do such a thing! If you're going to hurt me, then hurt me right!" Ryo yelled in anger.
"You're nuts! But I shall turn you into a card after this, that'll will suit you just fine! I play the Equip Spell Satellarknight Alpha to Stellarknight Delteros! This bumps up its attack by 500!"
Stellarknight Delteros ATK: 3000
"Much better!" Ryo yelled.
"I detach one of Delteros' Overlay Units to destroy a card you control! I'm taking out your Cyber Twin Dragon!" Ryo looked unmoved.
Delteros OU: 1
Delteros charged forward and slammed its sword onto Cyber Twin. Cyber Twin was destroyed as Ryo smirked.
"Go my Trap! Cyber Slaughter! When a Cyber Dragon is destroyed by battle or Monster effect, the Monster which destroyed it is wiped out and you take damage equal to its attack!" A hurricane shot out and Luna shielded her eyes.
"Due to Alpha's effect, the Monster it's equipped to is unaffected by card effects!" The hurricane ended and Ryo looked more annoyed.
"Not bad." Ryo said.
"I shall end this with one attack! Delteros!" Delteros charged forward to the defences Ryo.
"I gave you a chance… but it wasn't good enough. I reveal my second face down! Cyber Capture! When I'm attacked, by sending all cards in my hand, I can take control of the Monster attacking me!" Ryo sent all cards to the graveyard.
"But Delteros is unaffected be effects because of Alpha!"
"Don't treat me like an idiot." Ryo replied. "One of the cards I sent was Cyber Hound! When this card is sent to the graveyard, I can banish it and target a Spell or Trap on the field… then I can banish it!" The Equip Spell Alpha turned to stone and was quickly destroyed.
"What?!" Delteros appeared on Ryo's field. It changed into a Cyber Dragon.
"You see this card is treated as a Cyber Dragon while it's on my field! Also, it cannot be destroyed this turn nor do I take damage from battles involving it!" Ryo said.
"Academia would never use a Xyz Monster!" Luna hit back.
"I'm the Commander of the Xyz Dimension, I do what I want! And what better way to kill you all then use your own scummy summon against you!"
"I… end my turn." Luna replied with annoyance.
Turn 4
Luna LP: 3600 Hand: 0
Ryo LP: 2000 Hand: 0
"I will end this! Draw!" Ryo looked at his card and laughed. "This was too easy. I use Power Bond 2!"
"Powerbond 2?!"
"I banish my two Cyber Dragon Monsters in my graveyard and my Cyber Dragon on my field!"
"What now….?!" Luna stuttered.
"I need three Cyber Dragons to do this, so your Monster will aid in your end! I Fusion Summon… Cyber End Judgement Dragon!" A sliver dragon with purple amour around its wings emerged. It had three heads each with a green gem on their heads.
Cyber End Judgement Dragon ATK: 4000 DEF: 2800 Light/Machine/Fusion/LVL 10
"Now…. you shall join your comrades as a card! Be thankful you lived this long! Via Power Bond 2… Judgement gains attack points equal to its original amount! I take this amount as damage during my End Phase!"
Judgement Dragon ATK: 8000
"8000….."
Next this card can attack my opponent X the amount of Monsters they control, but don't worry… When Cyber End Judgement Dragon attacks a Monster, it inflicts no battle damage….!"
"What are you hiding?!" Luna said.
"Just watch!" Judgement Dragon, wipe out Altair!" Judgement powered up all the three heads and fired down green lasers from their mouths, Judgement easily wiped it out. Next destroy Alsahm!" Judgement destroyed the defence positioned Monster.
"Well that was worth nothing! You used all your attacks up! You now take 8000 damage!" Luna said.
"I won't even waste my breath in calling you a fool. Once you have no Monsters left on your field, Cyber End Judgement Dragon can attack X the amount of Monsters it destroyed this turn!"
"NO!" Luna yelled in fright.
"Enjoy being a card! Cyber End Judgement Dragon…. TOTAL OVERKILL!" Judgement powered up the lasers and Luna fell to the ground in fright. The three beams came towards her and all she could do is prepare for the worst.
The blast came in slow motion and once it hit Luna was sent rolling across the floor with her cloak on fire.
Luna LP: 3000 – 0 Ryo Wins
Ryo walked over as the dust covered the Xyz Dimension. Ryo looked at Luna with a disappointed look. He placed his boot on Luna's neck and slightly pressed down on it.
"You didn't give me a game of pain… carding you seems almost a waste." Ryo said.
"Shark… I'm sorry…" Luna pulled out a ring as she looked at it… "I couldn't save you…"
"Leave her alone!" Rio ran onto the field and slammed a punch into Ryo's cheek. Ryo fell back as Rio picked Luna up.
"Rio?" Luna said.
"I can't leave my future Sister in Law … now let's go!" Rio helped Luna up and while Ryo was down, they made a getaway.
Ryo rubbed his cheek and looked up.
"Who…. what was that?!" Ryo said.
Haruto
Haruto went looking and found a card on the floor. He picked it up and looked at it, it was a Xyz resident.
"Damnit…" Haruto said.
"War is a shameful thing…" a voice said. Haruto looked up and there Shark walked in.
"SHARK?!" Haruto shouted. "You dare show yourself here!"
"I don't know you!" Shark snapped back. "But I remember seeing your picture in Kaito's coat… your picture fell out before I carded him!"
"Shark you've been brainwashed by Academia… I won't forgive you regardless!" Haruto said his duel disk activated.
"I don't need your forgiveness!" Shark used a blue duel disk with white blade.
"Let's duel!" both yelled. Marina quickly caught up some soldiers from Academia, they watched from behind.
Turn 1
Haruto LP: 4000 Hand: 5
Shark LP: 4000 Hand: 5
"I'll start first; I'll play the Photon World Field Card!" The field became deep space; everyone in the area watched the transformation. Shark showed no reaction to what happened. "When I don't have any Monsters on the field I can Special Summon Photon Thrasher from my hand." A robot warrior with a sword emerged onto the field.
Photon Thrasher 2100 ATK / 0 DEF / Light / Level 4 / Warrior / Effect.
"The effect of Photon World is activated, when a Photon Monster is summoned to the field it allows me to do X 100 damage equal to the level of the summoned Monster!" From the sky several meteors hit Shark's field and one directly hit into his stomach sending him backwards, Shark put his hand on his stomach as he growled.
Shark LP: 4000-400 = 3600
"Then I'll summon Photon Crusher to the field in attack!"A new monster similar to Photon Thrasher but was green and had a mace came to the field.
Photon Crusher 2000 ATK / 0 DEF / Light / Level 4 / Warrior / Effect
"The Photon World effect is activated again." Again the meteorites fell to the ground hitting the commander.
Shark LP: 3600-400 = 3200
"This is not over yet. Even though my brother is no longer here, his soul and spirit will be with me thanks to this card. Shark was surprised at this because he already knew what that card was. "I will sacrifice both monsters on my field to summon Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon!"
The Monsters disappeared from the field and a heavy spear was formed in the hands of Haruto, he tried to lift it with his hands but it was too heavy. Some of the Academia soldiers scoffed because the boy could not lift it, except for Marina and Shark who knew what that creature was.
"The galaxy that lurks in the darkness. Become the light of hope and servant of my brother. The embodiment of light, now descend! Appear now, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon! "When the boy finally threw it, a new dragon appeared on the field. It shone with intensity with its blue scales. It surprised everyone.
Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon 3000 ATK / 2500 DEF / Light / Level 8 / Dragon / Effect
"You remember this dragon right? He also came for veng ..." Haruto shouted but before he could finish the sentence, he was stopped by Shark.
"Do you really believe that I am believing your act? You're scared kid!" Shark was screaming, which caused Haruto to open his eyes in surprise.
"I AM NOT; I WILL DEFEAT YOU AND AVENGE MY BROTHER! Again this summon will activate Photon World, this time it will be 800 damage!" The meteor shower started again, one of hits hit him in the face and threw Shark to the ground. This moment he fell on the floor, blood dripped from his forehead, he was showing more annoyance than before.
Shark LP: 3200-800 = 2400
"I'll leave two cards face down and finish my turn." Haruto said. The soldiers and the commander watched Haruto play.
"The commander has already destroyed that creature before, it will be a piece of cake and look at it, its attack may be strong but its effect only works against Xyz monsters." One of the soldiers stressed, Marina heard him and answered.
"Don't get ahead of yourself, that creature alone has taken the lives of many soldiers on the field. Also in this dimension that creature is legendary." Marina said.
Turn 2
Haruto LP: 4000 Hand: 2
Shark LP: 2400 Hand: 5
"Draw! I will play my Legendary Ocean Field Card, when this card is played on the field it can decrease the level of my Water Monsters by one and all Water Monsters gain 200 attack!
The field was filled with water and both ocean and space coexisted at the same time.
"Then I will activate my Foolish Burial Spell Card to send Gazer Shark to my grave. Now I will activate Polymerization and merge both Panther Shark and Eagle Shark in my hand to call my great underwater beast, great Red Leviathan!" Both creatures entered a multi-colored vortex. "Creature that devours from the surface arises again and devours everything in your path". The creature was a big red snake.
Great Leviathan Red 2600 ATK / 1700 DEF / Water / Level 6 / Sea Serpent / Fusion
Great Leviathan Red ATK: 2800
"Then I will activate Gazer Shark's effect in my graveyard which allows me to banish it and bring back from my graveyard two monsters of level five but with their effects negated. Return Panther Shark and Eagle Shark." Two new shark yellow and another red emerged in the field of Shark.
Panther Shark 1100 ATK / 2000 DEF / Water / Level 5 / Sea Serpent / Effect
Eagle Shark 1000 ATK / 1800 DEF / Water / Level 5 / Sea Serpent / Effect.
"The effect of my field card gives 200 points of attack to my creatures and at the same time it decreases its level by 1!" Shark said while an aura affected both sharks.
Eagle Shark ATK 1200; LV: 4
Panther Shark ATK 1300; LV: 4
"Then I'll build the overlay network with both creatures." Both monsters turned to energy and a vortex opened on the ground, all the soldiers looking annoyed at their commander except Marina. "Howl, unknown roar! Rise from the darkness of the abyss! Xyz Summon! Bahamut Shark!" The new humanoid blue shark roared loudly in the field, Haruto was annoyed.
Bahamut Shark 2600 ATK / 2100 DEF / Water / Rank 4 / Sea Serpent / XYZ.
"You're a hypocrite! You use Xyz Monsters and fight for Academia at the same time!" Haruto squeezed his fists tightly. "The Shark that my brother considered his friend would never would be a horrible person like you."
"It's because I was never that person you mentioned. I am a faithful resident of the Fusion Dimension that survived in the old Great War and I now fight for utopia!" Shark shouted, the Resistance member only clenched his fists. "I will continue by using an Overlay Unit of my Shark Bahamut! It's effect allows me to summon a Rank three Xyz monster from my extra deck. My Black Ray Lancer field appears!"
Bahamut roared as the Overlay Unit disappeared and a new torrent of water erupted into the field to reveal a new dark knight.
"Champion of darkness and devastation, Black Ray Lancer! Fight on my side!"
Black Ray Lancer 2100 ATK / 600 DEF / Dark / Rank 3 / Beast Warrior / XYZ
Black Ray Lancer ATK: 2300
Bahamut Shark ATK: 2800
"The commander may have more monsters but none of them surpasses the attack points of that boy's Monster." one of the soldiers exclaimed.
"Don't judge so quickly solider; the commander knows what he's doing." Marina responded to the soldier as she watched the duel.
"The effect of my big Red Leviathan will be activated. I can decrease the attack points of a Monster on the by 400 field by the amount of Water Monsters that I have pm my field. I choose your dragon!" "The creature sent a direct wave of energy towards Galaxy eyes, creating a red aura that covered it completely.
Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon ATK: 3000-1200 = 1800
"Leviathan destroy his Galaxy Eyes!" The Leviathan launched an energy discharge that destroyed his dragon. Haruto covered himself with his arms.
Haruto LP: 4000-1000 = 3000
"Why didn't he use the effect of his dragon?" Marina thought. Shark equally noticed this.
"I will activate my face down Photon Emergency card! When a Photon Monster is destroyed on the field, I can summon another with an equal level from my deck but its attack is diminished by half. Photon Caesar emerges! "A huge knight in shining armour surged into the field.
Photon Caesar 2000 ATK / 2800 DEF / Light / Level 8 / Warrior / Effect
Photon Caesar ATK: 1000
"Remember that the Photon World effect is activated." Haruto said as another new meteor shower fell on Shark.
Shark LP: 2400 - 800 = 1600
"Then I'll have to attack your creature with my Lancer!." Black Lancer was preparing to destroy Caesar but Haruto smiled because of the next card he planned to use.
"I activate my other card, Prevent Reborn! I can reduce the damage by 1000 and then summon a Monster that has been destroyed by battle!"
Haruto LP: 100-3000 = 2900
When Caesar was destroyed Photon Dragon returned to the field roaring louder than before. Again another meteor shower fell on the commander while he covered himself with the attack but unfortunately they threw him to the ground. When got up, he coughed some blood from his mouth.
Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon 3000 ATK / 2500 DEF / Light / Level 8 / Dragon / Effect
Shark LP: 1600- 800 = 800
"I'll leave two cards face down and finish my turn." Shark said weakly. The soldiers and Marina realized his situation.
"The boy has lowered most of the Commander's attack points, it is impossible for him to do anything against him." said one of the soldiers; Marina just shook her head in shame.
Soldier, never underestimate the power of a Commander."
Turn 3
Haruto LP: 2900 Hand: 2
Shark LP: 800 Hand: 0
"Draw," said Haruto. "This is over. I can avenge my brother and arrest one of the most powerful Academia Commanders!" Haruto said proudly while Shark just watched him and laughed, this caught the attention of the photonic duelist.
"WHAT?"
"Do you really believe all that trash? You can tell you were not born to kill and those eyes are too pure to hurt others." Shark exclaimed, this only angered Haruto more.
"How dare you!"
"Your brother thought the same as you and that's why he was defeated. He believed in a revenge that blinded him and it was only when he lost that he understood that it is not worth anything to fight with anger in your heart if you forget the cause for which you fight." Shark said, this left Haruto perplexed and he was even more annoyed.
"Just go!"
"I will reveal my facedown Trap Underwater Tornado, I can destroy a Spell Card on your field and we can both draw a card from our deck." A tornado destroyed Haruto's Field Card and the space field vanished only leaving the underwater world.
"Fight for the cause? Then for what cause do you fight Commander?" Marina wondered in her head.
"I have not been defeated yet, I will activate my Spell Card Galaxy Expedition. When I have Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon on my field, I can summon Galaxy Knight directly from my deck." A new knight flew over in a hovercraft.
Galaxy Knight 2000 ATK / 2600 DEF / Light / Level 8 / Warrior / Effect
"From my hand I will summon the Galaxy Wizard in attack mode." A humanoid and faceless sorcerer emerged onto the field.
Galaxy Wizard 0 ATK / 1800 DEF / Light / Level 4 / Spellcaster / Effect
"Then I will use the Galaxy Wizard's ability to increase its level by four!" Haruto said while his monster glowed.
Galaxy Wizard LVL: 8
"Now I'll create the Network overlay with my three monsters." The monsters turned to energy as a vortex appeared on the floor. They entered in it. "Radiant galaxy, here and now become the striking light, show yourself! Descend the very soul of my brother who is always with me! Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!" After the explosion happened a new red dragon emerged onto the field. It roared with intensity and was brighter than the previous one.
Neo-Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon 4500 ATK / 3000 DEF / Light / Rank 8 / Dragon / XYZ
"When Neo-Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon is summoned using Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon as Xyz Material I can negate the effects of all the monsters on your field! Photon Howling!"
The dragon roared with intensity causing all of Shark's other monsters to weaken.
"Then I will use an Overlay Unit of my dragon to eliminate each Overlay Unit of your monsters and increase the attack points of my dragon by 500!" The dragon's overlay unit disappeared and then the creature consumed those of Bahamut.
Neo-Galaxy Eyes ATK: 5000
"Then I'll activate the Galaxy Cyclone that allows me to destroy a card on your field." Haruto said as a vortex destroyed Shark's last card. "Now watch my dragon destroy your Lancer. Ultimate Photon Stream!"
The monster shot a burst of red energy at the knight which created a huge explosion, making a huge smog. Haruto smiled with emotion. All the soldiers were surprised to see this, except for the Marina who was still analyzing the duel in detail.
When the smoke dispersed, Shark still stood intact but his clothes and cape were battered. Haruto's face could not look worse because he failed to fulfil the promise he made.
"I activated the effect of my Monster Shark Damage in my hand! I send it to the grave when I'm going to take damage in battle then I can make the attack zero and end the battle phase." Shark exclaimed, Haruto returned to his challenging gaze.
"I leave a card face down and finish my turn."
Turn 4
Haruto LP: 2900 Hand: 2
Shark LP: 800 Hand: 0
"Draw, I will activate Mystical Space Typhoon in my hand to destroy your face-down card." A tornado swept away with Haruto's face-down card, he just gritted his teeth. "Then I'll activate the Trap Underwater Fusion Cemetery which allows me to banish it and use Fusion Materials from my field and my graveyard. I will merge Bahamaut Shark, my Leviathan and Black Ray Lancer. Appear, Guardian of the souls that have yet to mature, become the Red knight and crush the light! Silent Honors Red Paladin!"
When the vortex that joined the monsters of Shark appeared, a new red knight with a shield and spear came to the field.
Silent Honor Red Paladin 3000 ATK / 2200 DEF / Dark / Level 8 / Warrior / Fusion
"When Red Paladin is summoned to the field using Xyz Monsters to summon it, I can make the attack of all the monsters on your field become zero." Red Paladin opened its shield and with this a beam of energy hits Neo-Galaxy Eyes disabling its power.
Neo-Galaxy Eyes ATK: 0
"Red Paladin. Crusher Justice! "Paladin charged with his energy spear and with a lot of speed he drilled into Haruto's dragon. Haruto closed his eyes as he knew he had lost.
"Kaito… I failed you ..." The attack blew up the dragon and sent Haruto flying.
Haruto LP: 0 – Shark Wins
Shark walked over to Haruto and smirked.
"Time to join your brother." Shark pulled out his duel disk. As the duel disk begun to glow, a speeding missile shot directly into Shark which made him fly back.
"What?!" Haruto said. There he saw Anna appeared with a smile.
"Resistance!" Marina yelled.
"Sorry but Haruto is under our protection!" Anna said. The missile returned to Anna and begun to spin around creating a dust storm.
"After them!" Shark yelled but by the time they got through the dust cloud, the two Xyz duelists had gone. "NO!" Marina walked over to Shark and gave him a hand up. He accepted and they both looked on.
"They escaped again," Marina said, Shark just smiled.
"We've already broken his spirit. I wish I didn't do this now but I really need a honey water, do you need one too?"
"I've long wanted one of those, but you should better worry about recovering commander," Marina said as she hit her partner commander in the back and he reacted with pain. She was surprised at this and apologized. "I'm sorry it was not my intention"
"Commander, I remind you that we are not all as resistant as you are..." Shark said with pain.
