Ulrich362: Sounds like it.

bopdog111: They all have a lot to look forward too, and Ace had gotten courage with Zombies. How will this version of the Link Tournament will go?

People were gathering at the stadium where Yuya dueled the Sledgehammer in excitement for the coming tournament.

"Whoa... There are a lot of people here." Mason admitted nervous.

"Yeah." Ace nodded in agreement.

"Okay everyone it is time for one of the most dueling competitions of the century! Both me Nick Smiley, and my partner the Synchro Dimension's Melissa Trail will be your hosts for this tournament!" Nico announced with Melissa beside him.

"That's right duel fans." Melissa agreed. "This is going to be a competition for you all to remember."

"A tournament, and celebration like nothing you ever seen before showing lots of duelists from all five dimensions with the growing newest method Link Summoning, and from a suggestion Mr. Declan Akaba, Seto Kaiba, Maximillion Pegasus, and everyone else decided to make it a reality!" Nico added to them, "Of course who will come out on top, that's what all of us are here to find out over the last few days! So let's see the potential contestants shall we?"

"Sounds good to me." Melissa agreed. "So first up we have the competitions from the Pendulum Dimension."

Stacy, along with Sandy, Ace, Mason, Bonnie, and Dawn walked up.

"Introducing Stacy Sakaki." Nico Smiley mentioned.

Stacy waved to the crowd with a smile.

"Next up we have Sandy." Melissa announced.

Sandy shyly waved back with a smile.

"Then we have Zarc, and Ray's son, Ace Akaba!" Nico continued.

Ace smiled and waved himself before standing next to Sandy and smiling.

"Our next competitor is Mason Livingstone." Melissa stated.

Mason awkwardly waved to them.

"Of course he isn't here alone, next is his big sister Bonnie Livingstone." Nico revealed.

Bonnie winked with a grin giving out a 'Yo' hand sign.

"And last but not least competing from the Pendulum Dimension is the daughter of Zarc and Ray, Dawn Akaba." Melissa announced.

Dawn waved with a smile holding Ace's hand.

"These six young duelists are representing the Pendulum Dimension, but will one of them prove skilled enough to take on the talented duelists of the Xyz Dimension?" Nico asked. "Let's welcome our next six competitors."

Those people involve Terri, Hart, Yuto, Shay, Lulu, and Yuma.

"First up is Terri Obsidian." Melissa announced.

Terri waved with a smile.

"And next is Dr. Faker's second son, Hart Tenjo." Nico continued as Hart smiled waving back, "And next is Yuto."

Yuto smiled waving.

"Joining the fun are Terri's older siblings, Shay Obsidian and Lulu Obsidian." Melissa mentioned as the two of them walked up with Shay just watching his opponents and Lulu waving with a smile.

"And finally the winner of the World Duel Carnival years ago Yuma Tsukumo!" Nico finished as Yuma grinned waving to the crowd.

Lilly along with Yuri, Celina, Larsa, Julie, and Rocky walked in.

"First up is a young lady named Lilly." Nico announced.

Lilly bowed to them.

"Next we have Yuri." Melissa continued.

Yuri only gave a grin to them.

"Then his wife, Celina." Melissa said as Celina smiled to them, "And then their son, Larsa."

Larsa only waved looking down shyly. Celina took his hand reassuringly.

"Finally we have another pair of siblings, Julie Farrow and Rocky Farrow." Nico stated.

The two waved with smiles.

"Next up we have the representatives from my home the Synchro Dimension." Melissa smiled.

Alex, Leo, Luna, Yugo, Jack, and Carly walked in.

"First up is Alex, the former champion of the Friendship Cup." Nico stated.

Alex waved shyly taking Leo's hand her shy side still around. Leo squeezed her hand gently.

"Joining her are the talented twins Leo and Luna." Melissa announced.

They both wave to the audience at this.

"Joining the fun is Yugo." Nico Smiley announced.

Yugo grinned waving, and mostly to Rin in particular. Rin smiled waving back.

"Next just like Alex was the former champion of the Friendship Cup, it's current champion Jack is joining the competition." Melissa smiled.

Jack only raised his hand doing his pose pointing his finger to the sky like how he normally does.

"And last but certainly not least, Carly Carmine." Nico stated as she walked out with a smile as she waved to the crowd and took her spot next to Jack.

"I'm a little bit surprised your in Carly. Did Jack encouraged you to?" Terri asked her.

"A bit, but honestly after what happened I've been trying to duel more." Carly admitted. "Though, don't think that means it'll be easy to beat me."

She nodded as Nico added, "Finally the residents from the Ritual Dimension itself!"

Kelly, Mokuba, Yuki, Gale, Joey, and a small black cloaked boy with the hood down having chestnut hair walked over.

"First up is Kelly." Melissa smiled.

"Hi good to meet you all!" Kelly smiled waving to them.

"Next is Seto Kaiba's little brother, Mokuba!" Nico added.

Mokuba took a breath before walking up next to Kelly and smiling.

"Then we have the talented Gale Wheeler and her brother Joey." Melissa mentioned.

"Nice to be here everyone!" Joey grinned to them only for Gale to stomp on his foot, "Ow!"

"Don't embarrass yourself Joey." Gale said to him making him pout.

Kelly giggled seeing that.

"And we'll keep it going with Yuki Muto!" Melissa called as Yuki grinned giving a thumbs-up, "And finally a mysterious boy that can wield multiple Decks from all summon methods that are rumored to have been aliens..."

"Spencer!" Nico finished as the cloaked boy bowed to them.

"Aliens?" Jack asked. "Interesting, this should be fun."

"Multiple Decks, and 1 summon method. Just like you." Sandy smiled to Ace.

Ace nodded at that. "I think... he'll be tough to beat."

"And of course this is a tournament with all summon methods so we will show the six special guests that will join." Nico continued.

Ace blinked in confusion turning to Dawn. "What does he mean big sis?"

"Well this is a tournament about Link Summoning so since all but Link aren't here, they decided to enter 6 people who uses Link as special guests." Dawn answered.

"Oh, that makes sense." Ace smiled.

"I wonder who they picked." Larsa mentioned.

"We're about to find out." Shay noted.

At that a blue haired boy that has green eyes with purple highlights wearing a black hoodie, a brunette girl his age wearing a black uniform, the man that was talking to Kaiba, and Declan, a tanned man wearing a golden harness, a teal suit man with blue hair, and a teal tuff, and a gray hair man having on a gray suit walked in.

"Please welcome, Yusaku Fujiki, Skye Zaizen, Ryoken Kogami, George Gore, Akira Zaizen, and Specter." Nico Smiley stated introducing them.

The crowd cheered as Yusaku looked around, Skye smiled to them, Ryoken was also looking around, Gore was basking in the cheers with a grin, Akira only smiled, and Specter had a grin.

"With the 36 competitors ready, let's see who's going to be dueling first." Melissa mentioned.

The screen with all pictures of the contestants appeared before being shuffled, and the first revealed came on.

Round 1:

Match 1: Ace Akaba vs Carly Carmine

"Looks like we go first Ace, good luck." Carly smiled.

Ace gulped offering a handshake.

"Don't worry, the important thing is to have fun." Dawn reassured him while Carly gently took his hand.

"Uh... what Deck can I use?" Ace asked them.

"That's your choice." Carly answered. "Whichever one you feel comfortable using."

Ace, and Carly walked to the field ready as Ray smiled at the audience, "Ace, good luck."

"I just want him to have fun." Zarc admitted.

"Me too." Ray smiled to her husband.

"Do you want to go first Ace?" Carly asked him.

Ace put in a deck softly nodding.

"And now let's go over the rules of Duels in this tournament!" Nico announced, "This spinner on the screen has three categories. Master Duel, Action Duel, or Speed Duel. Master Duels as you all are aware are the format that uses Link Monster's true power."

"And Speed Duels are like Turbo Duels, and Master Duels combined expected they have lower zones, no main phase 2, and the ability to activate a Skill." Melissa added, "And you already know Action Duels."

"So let's see what match Carly, and Ace's be." Nico said as the spinner spin before stopping at Action Duel.

"Looks like we'll be waiting to see the potential of Link Monsters." Melissa noted.

"True, though with that said enough talking." Nico added

"It's time to Duel!" Melissa and Nico called together.

"DUEL!" Ace and Carly called.

Carly frowned at that. "You're starting off really well Ace."

Ace chuckled sheepishly rubbing his head.

'Then again, I have a plan.' Carly thought.

'Uh... Does Sky Galloping Gaia count for Spiral Spear Strike?' Ace thought looking at the spell before saying, "O-Okay, Galloping Gaia attack!"

"Every, attack Sky Galloping Gaia the Dragon Champion!"

"Huh?" Ace asked confused.

Yusaku with the special guests meanwhile said, "That trap is powerful... However unless Gaia, the Dragon Champion is on the field, it doesn't have its strength."

"That's true, but it works when Gaia the Dragon Champion attacks or gets attacked." Akira noted.

The trap glowed as Galloping Gaia fired a blast at Every.

Carly's eyes widened in shock as her monster shattered. "I end my turn."

Ace 2nd Turn:

"My turn." Ace drew looking over, "Uh..."

Charging Gaia: (ATK: 2300 - 400 = 1900)

"And on top of that it's a Black Luster Solider support card." Gale added, "But I don't think he had him for Black Luster Solider."

"Probably not, but unless Carly gets a card to protect herself this match is over." Joey pointed out.

"And now Gaia!" Ace called as they both charged while Carly's continuous spell shattered.

Carly looked at her card only to frown before bracing herself.


Ace: 4000

Carly: 0000

Ace wins the duel!


"Energy Biscuits only give me 500 points, and you have 4500 attack points on the field." she admitted. "You win Ace."

Ace blinked seeing he had won, "I've... won?"

Carly nodded with a smile. "Yeah, you have."

"And the winner of the first duel is Ace Akaba." Nico Smiley announced.

Carly's picture was crossed as Ace's moved up to the round 2 spot.

"Fortune Lady Every can come back from the graveyard and each time her level increases I can banish one of your cards, so if I survived the turn I could have turned things around." Carly admitted.

"Okay." Ace said before bowing, "Thanks for the duel."

"Anytime." Carly smiled as they walked off the field.

When they got back Sandy gave Ace a soft kiss on his cheek. Ace blushed at that.

She giggled at that, "Oh Acey."

"Their about to announce the next match." Mason told them.

Hearing that they turned to see who was dueling while Carly walked over to the Synchro duelists.

"Bad luck, oh well it happens." she mentioned.

They looked to see.

Match 2: Sandy vs Luna

Ace smiled. "Good luck Sandy."

Sandy nodded with a smile, "I hope my newly upgraded, and updated Ghosts will do."

"Just have fun, that's the most important thing." Dawn mentioned as they looked to see what kind of duel it would be.

The spinner spin before stopping at Speed Duel.

"And we have a Speed Duel." Nico Smiley announced. "As mentioned before the rules are a bit different, there's no Main Phase 2, you only start with four cards as opposed to five and have only three monster card zones and three spell and trap zones. Though in exchange you get a useful ability called a Skill, let's see how this one goes."

Sandy took a breath before stepping out. Luna was already on the field. "Good Luck."

Sandy nodded before Duel Boards appeared for them to take. Luna smiled and got on hers. "This feels familiar."

Sandy got on her's as they waited.

"Ready, and... Speed Duel!" Melissa called as they started off.

"Only if they have a counter." Sandy answered, "My Ghost Cards had gotten updated since they were lacking before."

"My Fairy Archer will get a counter at the end of your turn." Luna pointed out.

"But you'll get something else." Sandy told her, "Moving along Haunted Mansion gets Ghost Host back to my Deck, to add a Ghost Spell or Trap to the hand. And I'll pick Ghost Phenomenon! Then I'll summon Green Ghost!"

Ace looked down. "Sandy helped... and, some of her cards are still scary though."

"And now since Fairy Archer is level 3, I'll summon Green Ghost back!" Sandy called as Green Ghost appeared again, "And now I set three cards. Ghost Brothers attack!"

The two charged in at Fairy Archer. Luna braced herself before her monster shattered.

Casper flew to Sunlight Unicorn mentioning her to follow him, "Come on, I want to be your friend."

The unicorn bowed slightly before following him as Luna's eyes widened. "That... that's it."

"Casper brings no harm. He wants friendship." Sandy smiled, "Now Ghost Brothers, Green Ghost go!"

Luna looked at her set card before just sighing as the ghosts hit her.


Sandy: 1700

Luna: 0000

Sandy wins the duel!


They stopped as Sandy offered a hand. Luna took it. "I didn't expect you to take Sunlight Unicorn, I had just enough points with Twinkle Wall but oh well, good game."

Sandy smiled saying, "Good duel."

She walked back to her group. Ace smiled. "You were really cool out there Sandy."

"Ah thanks Acey." Sandy giggled kissing his cheek, "I didn't scare you did I?"

Ace frowned. "The Jumpscare card is still scary."

"Sorry." Sandy admitted.

"It's ok." Ace mentioned hugging her.

Sandy smiled hugging him back.

"Okay they weren't too shabby." Bonnie admitted with a smile, "At least you both can have a lot of rest, and plan ahead for the next round."

They nodded as they turned to see who was next.

Match 3: Hart Tenjo vs Joey Wheeler

"I'm next." Hart said seeing that.

"Looks like it Hart, good luck." Terri smiled.

Hart smiled kissing her. With that he and Joey walked to take their positions.
