bopdog111: And now we're gonna see Stacy's dueling.
Ulrich362: True, and she's getting... something special for this one.
bopdog111: What would that be? A summon method she hasn't used which isn't Link.
Ulrich362: Well, that only leaves one option. So let's see what happens, enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V but we own the OCs!
It was a few hours after Ace's match with Chōko and the five members of her family were back at Jarrod's house when Mir suddenly paused.
"Stacy, could I ask you something?"
"Yeah?" Stacy asked curiously.
"You can Pendulum, Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Summon right?" Mir checked. "What about the other two?"
"Link, and Ritual?" Stacy asked, "Their aren't any Draco Link, or Rituals."
"Actually, you're wrong about that." Jarrod mentioned. "There is a Ritual monster for your archetype... well, technically."
"There is?" Stacy asked surprised.
"Like I said, it's technically part of your archetype but there's a catch." Jarrod told her before pulling up something on his duel disk and showing her two cards.
Amorphous Persona
Field Spell Card
All "Amorphage" monsters on the field gain 300 ATK/DEF. Up to twice per turn, if an "Amorphage" monster(s) you control is Tributed, draw 1 card. You can banish this card from your GY; Tribute Pendulum Monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels exactly equal 8, then Ritual Summon 1 "Amorphactor Pain, the Imagination Dracoverlord" from your hand.
Amorphactor Pain, the Imagination Dracoverlord
Earth Attribute
Level 8
Dragon/Effect/Ritual
ATK: 2950
DEF: 2500
You can Ritual Summon this card with "Amorphous Persona". If this card is Ritual Summoned: Your opponent skips their next Main Phase 1. Negate the effects of face-up Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Monsters while they are on the field. If this card is sent from the field to the GY: You can add 1 "Dracoverlord" monster from your Deck to your hand, except "Amorphactor Pain, the Imagination Dracoverlord".
"Amorphage?" Stacy asked seeing that.
"That's right." Jarrod nodded.
"And it also stops Fusion, Xyz, and Synchro." Stacy said seeing it, "That sounds like a good card to have though I don't know about this Amorphage stuff."
"It's your choice if you want to try it or not. You're already incredibly skilled as a duelist." Mir pointed out.
"There are always ways to try new stuff." Stacy smiled before saying, "Where can we find them?"
"The Ritual Dimension would be a good place to check." Jarrod mentioned calmly.
"That means we're going on another trip Pumpkin." Stacy smiled ruffling Chōko's head.
She giggled at that.
"After that why don't we watch some movies?" Tate suggested with a smile, "What stuff do you like to watch Chōko? Maybe The Secret of Nimh?"
"I like princess movies." she smiled happily.
"So Cinderella, or something like that then. In that case we should ask Leon for his advice." Stacy said to Tate with a smile.
He chuckled at that before smiling. "You haven't met Leon have you Chōko?"
She blinked and shook her head no.
"You'll love him, he uses fairy tail monsters." Tate smiled. "He has Cinderella as a monster, with the pumpkin carriage and glass slippers."
With that they all headed off. They arrived in the Ritual Dimension where Mokuba, Kelly, and Leon were talking about something with smiles on their faces.
"Hey guys!" Stacy called to them.
They looked over and smiled.
"Hey Stacy." Mokuba waved seeing her. "What are you guys doing here?"
"Well two things. One we heard of a Ritual Monster that is in my Deck, and I want to check it out." Stacy answered with a smile.
"A Ritual Dracoslayer? I've never heard of one." Mokuba admitted.
"It's a Dracoverlord." Stacy pulled up the card for them.
Leon blinked. "I've seen that card before."
"Do you know where we can find one?" Stacy asked him.
"Yeah, my brother should have one." Leon answered.
Stacy nodded before smiling, "That aside we want to ask you something since your a Disney expert."
"Shoot." Leon chuckled.
"Chōko here likes seeing Princess movies. What kind of Disney Princess would she like?" Tate asked while placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Well, how about we take a look and see which ones look interesting." Leon smiled. "Plus I can give Stacy her new cards."
They nodded following Leon. They arrived at a large mansion before Leon opened the door for them. They walked in looking in awe from the decor as a butler bowed, "Welcome back young master Leon. And I see you brought guests."
"Yeah." Leon nodded calmly.
"Is there anything, I can do for them?" the butler asked.
"Stacy was wondering about the Amorphage ritual monster and field spell." Leon mentioned. "Could you get them for her?"
The butler gave thought before saying, "I'll be back."
Leon nodded before turning to a large TV. "While we wait why don't we see what movies we have."
They nodded as they looked over Disney Movies. Chōko smiled as they did before holding a pile of eight movies.
"Okay what do you want to see Chōko?" Stacy asked her.
"We got Cinderella." Tate shows the movie, "Or Tangled perhaps?"
"Maybe even Peter Pan?" Jarrod suggested which everyone gave him odd looks which he shrugged, "What? Wendy has been described as a Princess once."
Chōko was looking at them before smiling. "Can we watch this one?"
She was holding a copy of the Little Mermaid.
"Oh that's a good one." Stacy smiled, "This is a real classic. Is it Leon?"
"Oh yeah it is." Leon smiled, "It's definitely ionic."
Chōko smiled as the butler walked up with two cards. He handed Stacy the cards as she smiled, "Thanks." She looked at them wondering, "I wonder, who I will test them on."
"Maybe Yuya, he uses Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Summoning after all." Tate suggested.
Hearing that Stacy gave thought before shrugging, "Okay why not?"
"Oh, but the tournament continues tomorrow." Mokuba pointed out.
"Well we gotta start somewhere." Jarrod said before smiling, "Now let's watch us some Little Mermaid okay?"
Chōko smiled at that. "Yeah."
"You can sit on Daddy's lap as we watch." Stacy said with a smile.
Chōko smiled wider at that before they heard an explosion. Startled they looked to see what happened. There was smoke in the distance.
"What's going on?" Leon asked shocked.
They ran to the smoke only to see Yuki on his back frowning. "It's still not enough."
"Yuki? What in the world just happened?" Stacy asked him concerned.
"Huh, oh hey guys." Yuki smiled. "Did I scare you?"
"Yeah you did, we thought something had happened." Mir answered looking at him disapprovingly, "What did you do that had created such a noise?"
He flinched. "I'm... trying to get stronger, to evolve as a duelist so I can keep my family safe."
"Well I don't think that explosion is a good way of doing that." Jarrod stated simply to him.
"That wasn't on purpose." Yuki admitted before frowning. "Maybe I'll just forfeit tomorrow."
"Hang on Yuki. If you want to get stronger why not duel me?" Stacy suggested with a smile.
"Huh, sure." he smiled. "It could be fun and who knows, maybe a duel is the key to evolving Ritual Summoning to a new level."
"Evolving Ritual? Well I got a Ritual of my own, and I want to test it out." Stacy smiled to him.
Yuki blinked before nodding. "Sounds good to me, let's duel Stacy."
She nodded readying as Tate smiled to her, "Now you get to see how strong Stacy is."
Chōko nodded with a huge smile on her face.
"Let's Duel!" Yuki and Stacy called together.

Stacy read it's effects, "Wow, so it can't assist me at the moment, I'll have to think of alternate methods to use this card. Oh well, future times."
"I'm sure you'll figure out something." Yuki smiled.
Stacy nodded before smiling, "Well, I do know this, I'll activate Scale 3 Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer, and Scale 5, Lector Pendulum, the Dracoverlord to set the Pendulum Scale!"
The two dragons appeared in her Pendulum Zones raising up.

"So now I can summon monsters with levels 3 through 4 all at the same time! I Pendulum Summon! A couple of dragons ready to take the field!"
The portal shot two lights.
"Luster Pendulum, and Lector Pendulum!"
The two rose up ready.

'Is she going to play Master Peace?' Yuki thought curiously.
"No Defense Points?" Chōko asked confused, "Then why would Stacy put them in Defense Mode?"
"Just watch." Tate smiled to her. "Stacy is super strong."
Stacy then said, "That ends my turn."

"Those two can banish a Special Summoned monster, and a Spell or Trap card when Tributed to Ritual Summon from the field right?" Stacy asked.
"That's right." Yuki smiled before grinning. "I attack Luster Pendulum with Revenants first though."
Revenants charged striking down Luster Pendulum which Stacy braced herself from the attack while Luster Pendulum was destroyed.
"Now I'll use the ritual spell card Revendread Origin." Yuki smiled.
Revendread Origin

This card can be used to Ritual Summon any "Vendread" Ritual Monster from your hand or GY. You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field, and/or banish Zombie monsters from your GY, whose total Levels equal or exceed the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon. If "Revendread Slayer(s)" you control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can banish this card from your GY instead.
"I'll sacrifice both my monsters to Ritual Summon Vendread Battlelord."
At that what rose was a gray armored zombie warrior who's armor is made from multiple bones covering his body with two large spikes from his shoulders with a blue orb at his chest. He also has skulls in place of pads on his knees, elbows, and shoulder guards with it also being his helmet with two smaller horns on them with flaming blue eyes like a skull coming to life having a flowing black cape that looks torn, and worn up. It is also holding a massive blade that seems to be made for the same bones as it's armor almost like a butcher cleaver being bladed at one side with bones all over it. It cackled evilly as it swung it's cleaver like sword resting the unbladed part on it's shoulder with a bone chilling grin.

"So now, I can draw two more cards!" Stacy said drawing twice before calling, "Then I bring back Luster Pendulum!"
The Pendulum Portal starts to glow. Yuki watched with a grin. Luster Pendulum rose up again in Defense Mode.
Luster Pendulum: (Defense Position)
Stacy then called, "Then I'll sacrifice these two!" She raised a card in her hand as it glowed.
"This is Stacy's best monster Chōko." Tate smiled.

"I use Vendread Battlelord's ability to banish a Special Summoned monster." Yuki called.
Battlelord charged an aura which Stacy countered, "I use Master Peace's ability! It stops that effect, and destroys it alltogether!" Master Peace charged a barrier blasting it toward Battlelord.
Yuki's eyes widened seeing that as his monster shattered.
"That left you open Yuki." Stacy smiled only for his graveyard to glow, "Huh?"
"Battelord has an ability, when he's destroyed I can add a ritual monster to my hand and then I send Revendread Slayer to my graveyard." Yuki grinned.
Shrugging Stacy called, "Master Peace attacking Yuki directly!"
Master Peace charged in. Yuki braced himself as the attack hit.

Stacy just smiled, "Not before doing this first." She activates Heavy Storm.

Destroy all Spell and Trap Cards on the field.
"Oh, good point." Yuki chuckled as the cards shattered.
Stacy then grinned, "Then I'll banish my Field Spell to use it's effect from my graveyard!" It vanished. Yuki just smiled seeing that.
"So now I'll summon Amorphactor Pain, the Imagination Dracoverlord!"

"Wow, you're super strong other mommy." Chōko smiled.
Stacy chuckled rubbing her head.
"I didn't draw it tonight, but maybe I can try my new Ritual Monster tomorrow." Yuki mentioned. "Trust me, you guys will love what it can do."
"New Ritual?" Jarrod asked curiously.
Yuki just smiled at that.
Ulrich362: A bit short, but the first two or three duels of the second round are up next so I think it makes sense to stop here for now.
bopdog111: Well next up is where we can see Spencer again.
Ulrich362: It should be interesting to say the least. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
