Normal POV

❮At Headquarters❯

As Aila walked in, she noticed Sechaan typing away on his laptop while Karizaki was sitting nearby, engrossed in his own work.

Aila: Karizaki, Sechaan, what are you doing?

Sechaan: We're hacking the entire system in your dimension. It took us hours to code the firewall, but I was able to hack it.

Aila: Why are you hacking into my world's network systems?

Karizaki: So we can detect some negative presence. That way, during your work or Amira's fights, you won't have to worry about any outcomes.

Aila: Are you sure? What if people find out?

Izu: They won't. I already blocked your identities and our location.

Izu appeared.

Aila: Izu, where have you been?

Izu: I was just analyzing all the data, the system, and copying the knowledge of Vanguard.

Aila: Uh, okay, do you hack everywhere, is she a hacker?

Karizaki: No, we didn't tell you last week. Izu, she isn't a human being; she is a robot.

Aila: [shocked] Wait, Izu is a robot?

Karizaki: Technically, she's a Humagear.

Aila: Humangear? What's that?

Izu: They are synthetic A.I. androids developed by Hidden Intelligence.

Aila: That does sound like a robot to me.

Sechaan: Technically it's isn't.

Aila: Whoa, an AI android, awesome you should just say that you're a robot. I mean humangear. That would explain why you have all footage from the CF Foundation incident.

Izu: Yes, I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.

Aila: It's fine. At least you're here to help out. Even though you're a human gear, you can still help. So why did you call me here?

Karizaki: Izu, showed her.

Izu nodded as she walked, holding a tray in her hand. On the tray was a bracelet.

Aila: A bracelet?

Sechaan: No, this isn't a normal bracelet; it's a communication device with built-in GPS tracking technology.

Aila held the bracelet and wrapped it around her right wrist.

Sechaan: Hand over your blaster.

She grabbed the blaster and placed it on the table.

Sechaan: It can also absorb it and allow it to appear in her hand.

Aila's blaster suctioned onto her bracelet.

Aila: Wow! Now I don't have to worry about hiding under my skirt.

Sechaan: Yes.

Aila: Good, if they show up, I will defeat them with all my might.

❮At Night in the CF Foundation❯

Aila was in her office with Izu; she was filling out all the paperwork and had finished.

Aila: [sigh] That's the last of them.

Izu: You deal with a ton of paperwork.

Aila: Yeah, it wasn't easy. It was easy at school, but running a business, I'm still getting a hang of it. Um, I mean, there are so many things you have to do and keep track of.

Izu: You're still confused by my appearance.

Aila: Yeah, sorry I didn't expect a robot to come in.

Izu: Don't worry, Humangears are not harmful to humans.

Aila: (I've known Izu for a few weeks, but she's a HumanGear. It's a lot to take in.) So… What is the last of the tasks?

Izu: According to your work laws, you need to challenge yourself and gain the trust of your employer, in order to be challenged and work anywhere.

Aila: How am I supposed to do that?

Izu: You can choose any shop you face. What clan are you planning on using?

Aila thought for a few seconds and then her mind snapped.

Aila: I think I know which shop to go to. But first...

~Next Day~

❮At Miyaji Academy❯

Aila's classmates crowded around her and engaged in conversation with her.

Student 1: Hey Aila, congratulations on becoming the president.

Aila: Well I…

Student 2: I can't believe that you're the president of our school.

Student 3: Nice bracelet!

Mayumi: Alright everyone, Aila needed some time off, she got her first job and she needs rest.

The students walked away, and Aila sighed as she saw Mayumi and Ken standing behind her desk.

Mayumi: Hey Aila, I heard your message and you had some trouble with the challenge shop. By the way, nice bracelet.

Ken: [rolled his eyes and smiled] So, have you finally decided which shop will be your first Cardfight?

Aila: Yeah, after school my driver will take us there.

A few hours later, Aila, Mayumi, and Ken walked out of the building, seeing Izu waiting in the car. They hopped in as the driver took them to their destination.

Ken: So which shop are you going to compete in?

Aila: You will see.

They made it into their destination, which was the Card Capital. The siblings were surprised.

Ken: That's Card Capital.

Mayumi: Wait, is this…?

Aila: Yes.

They entered the shop. Shin looks at them.

Shin: Hey, it's you guys! Congrats on being appointed as the President of the CF Foundation.

Aila: Yeah, thank you very much.

Shin: So what's brought you here, buying another booster pack, Ken?

Ken: No, not this time. She's just here for a match so she can prove to herself in the company.

Shin: I see now, where's your deck?

Aila nodded in agreement with Izu.

Aila: Here you go.

Aila placed her deck on the table. Shin began looking through the cards.

Shin: What do we have here, "Super Sentai"!?

As he read about the clan, he had never heard of it; but as he became interested, his curiosity grew.

Shin: I've never seen anything like this. These cards actually exist? Where did you even get them?

Aila: Well..

Misaki: May I see it?

Misaki interrupted and grabbed the deck of cards as she looked at them.

Misaki: No way, that's a new deck. Are those official Vanguard cards?

Aila: Yeah, yeah.

Aila nodded at Izu, indicating it was time. Izu turned her headband on as she scanned the computer and hacked it, making the clan officially recognized. Misaki researched the clan from the computer.

Misaki: Well, according to the website they came out a few days ago.

Shin: I've never seen this clan before.

Misaki: I'm either. It was official though.

Miwa: Can I see it?

Miwa, Morikawa, Izaki, Ichiro and Kamui interrupted as Miwa looked at the deck.

Morikawa: Wow, I've never seen anything like it.

Izaki: Haven't you guys ever heard of it?

Morikawa: No, we didn't.

Kamui: I know about many clans, but I have never heard of this one before.

While they were looking at the deck, Kai looked at them and became interested in learning about Super Sentai.

Kai: (Super Sentai, does that sound familiar?)

Misaki: Excuse me, but don't interrupt the customers!

Aila: Don't worry about it, Misaki.

Miwa: In that case, let's have a battle!

Aila: What?

Miwa: This is my chance to face a deck I've never seen before.

Kamui: Yes, let's battle!

Miwa: Hey, I got here first!

They began to argue.

Aila: Guys, calm down.

Kai: Well then, may I challenge you, Miss Izumi?

Kai interjected as they looked at him.

Miwa: Kai.

Kai: I want to see that clan; it sounds interesting.

Aila: [surprised] Ah sure, thank you!

They went to the cardfight table as Aila and Kai prepared their decks.

Kamui: I'll explain the rules.

Aila: There's no need. I've pretty much known the game. Let's proceed to the real fight.

Kai: [smiled] Alright then.

Morikawa: I want to battle against that mysterious deck.

Izaki: Why is Kai so kind to her?

Miwa: Because he's interested in that mysterious clan.

Aila prepares her deck as she has been thinking about how it all started with the deck, so let's have flashbacks that show how Aila came to choose Super Sentai as her own clan deck.

"Flashback at HQ Started"

Karizaki: You had to do what!?

Aila: Yeah.

Sechaan: You don't know that it's against the code. If people find out about Super Sentai, there will be serious consequences.

Aila: Look, I know you're worried about them and their powers, but I'll take care of them. It won't use more than 50 cards, and besides, they don't even know about its power yet. I'll just put in the clan name; they'll never figure out it has powers from the cards.

Izu: Well it doesn't have any moves or skills yet.

Aila: As President, I will use my own skills and abilities to lead effectively.

After a few seconds, Karizaki said in a low voice.

Karizaki: [sigh] Fine.

Aila: Really.

Karizaki: Yeah, it's not a bad plan.

Sechaan: Since the Clan of Shadows hasn't attacked or rampaged today, you should be fine.

Karizaki: But there's only one condition.

Aila: Huh, what's that?

Karizaki: I need Izu to provide me with data on the opponents you've faced.

Aila: Okay.

"End of f Flashback"

Aila: (Thanks to my skills, I was able to create my deck which is much stronger than the other clans. I just feel like I need an opportunity to earn their trust. Let's do this.)

Aila looked at Izu and nodded, meaning she was ready to analyze the data.

Back at HQ, the screen started beeping as Karizaki and Sechaan walked toward it.

Sechaan: Already, let's get started!

They typed away on his keyboard as they were ready to gather data to Vanguard battle. Then Aila looked back at Kai.

Kai: Now imagine we both landed on the surface of another planet called Cray.

Aila closed her eyes, then opened them to find herself standing in an empty space. She soon began falling, and when she opened her eyes again, she was on a vast land of Planet Cray.

Kai: Alright, let's begin.

Aila: [nodded] Yeah.

Stand up, (the) Vanguard

Both of them flipped their first Vanguard.

Kai: I ride Lizard Runner, Undeux (Grade 0 POW.6000) [turned into Undeux]

Aila: I ride, White Swan (Grade 0 POW.6000) [turned into White Swan]

Kai: A swan?

Kamui: Hey, Izu, could you tell us more about Aila's clan?

Izu: Yes, Super Sentai are connected by the Baton of Courage to protect the Earth.

Izaki: Protect the Earth as guardians.

Izu: Yes.

Miwa: Whoa, it's going to be really hard for Kai to defeat that clan.

Izaki: Don't forget he is an aloof fighter. I'm sure he attend to win.

Misaki: You have one problem, Aila's the president of her own company. Which means she knows about Kai's clan.

Kai's Turn:

Kai: I'm up first, draw, I ride, Sabel Dragonewt (Grade 1 POW. 8000) [turned into Zabel] with Undeux skill, draw one card, turn end.

Kai looked at Aila.

Kai: (I don't know anything about her or her deck; I'll just play along to figure out her strategy).

Aila's Turn:

Aila: Okay, draw [draw 1 card] I ride Mega Yellow (Grade 1 POW. 8000) [turned into MegaYellow] with Swan skill, draw one card. I also activate MegaYellow skill. I discard one card and I draw one card.

Morikawa: Wait, she can replace units, even in grade 1?

Izu: Yes, she can discard more cards and replace them with Grade 1-3 cards.

They were shocked.

Miwa: That means it's going to be difficult for Kai.

Aila: Then I call OhBlue (Grade 1 PWW. 5000), OhYellow (Grade 1 PWR 8000), Green Racer (Grade 1 PWR 5000) to rear-guard.

She calls OhBlue, in the right front, OhYellow, in the back of the right front and Green Racer, in the back of the middle rear-guard circle.

Aila: with the boost of OhYellow, OhBlue attacked, I also activate his skill, since I discard one card from the drop zone he gets 4000 (PWR. 5000 4000 8000 = 17000)

Izaki: That 17000 power? That's way too high.

Aila: Now go!

OhBlue: Let go!

OhYellow: Yeah!

OhBlue and Yellow charged at Undeux.

Kai: Come! Flame of Hope, Aermo! (SLD. 8000 10000 =18000)

Aila: In that case, MegaYellow attacks. [charge towards Undeux] (PWR: 8000 5000 = 13000) [with the boost of Green Racer as they charged toward him]

Kamui: That was not enough to defeat Undeux Shield.

Kai: No guard.

Aila: Drive check, [draw, revealed a trigger] critical trigger gives all the effects to Mega Yellow (PWR. 13000 10000 = 23000, 2 critical) Here I go, Mega Sling!

Mega Yellow attacked Sable Dragonewt with her Mega Sling.

Kai: My damage check [no trigger, second check [no trigger].

Aila: Turn end.

Izaki: Kai is up to 2 damage.

Morikawa: She is pretty good. For a president.

Kamui: She just started playing Vanguard, but she's getting used to the game. How is she so good at it?

Mayumi: That's because she has been playing Vanguard for years.

Miwa: Wait, what!?

Kai's Turn:

Kai: For a beginner, [draw a card]. You're not all that bad.

Aila: Huh?

Kai: But I'll won't go easy on you, I ride, Dragon Full-armored Buster (Grade 2 PWR. 10000) [turned into Dragon Full-Armored Buster] come now, Bellicosity Dragon (Grade 2 PWR. 10000), Dragon Monk, Gojo (Grade 1 PWR. 7000) Lizard Soldier, Raopia (Grade 1 PWR. 8000).

Bellicosity Dragon is on the right front, Dragon Monk, Gojo is in the back of the middle, and Lizard Soldier, Raopia is in the back of the right front.

Kai: Go for it Bellicosity attack Oh Blue! (8000 10000 = 18000)

Bellicosity and Raopia charged, fired and attacked OhBlue in the rear-guard.

Kai: With the boost of Dragon Monk, Dragon Full-armored Buster attacks your Vanguard, with Dragon Monk skill he gets 3000 when it is boosted (10000 7000 3000 = 20000)

Aila: (That's a total of 20000), I'll go to No guard.

Kai: Drive check, [revealed a critical trigger] Critical Trigger power to Bellicosity (10000 10000 = 20000) Critical to the Vanguard.

Dragon Monk attacked MegaYellow.

Aila: Damage check [no trigger] second.. [reveal a draw trigger]

Ken: She got another draw trigger!

Aila: [draw one card] power to my Vanguard (PWR. 8000 10000 = 18000)

Kai: Now, Bellicosity Dragon (PWR. 20000) attack.

Aila: I don't think so, Guard! (Yellow Turbo, SLD. 5000 18000 = 23000) Thank you, Yellow Turbo.

Yellow Turbo: No problem, my Vanguard [disappeared]

Misaki: They both have two damage point.

Kamui: She was going to waste all her cards.

But then someone entered the shop.

Shingo: Hey, we're back from school!

Noaki: So who's up for Cardfight!?

Misaki: Shh, quiet.

Shingo: What for?

Misaki: Look.

Shingo and Naoki walked towards the vanguard table and noticed that Kai was fighting Aila in a vanguard cardfight.

Naoki: [stunned]

Shingo: That's Aila Izumi.

Naoki: What is she doing?

Shingo: Did we miss anything?

Kamui: Yeah, you guessed it. Look at her deck.

Shingo and Naoki looked closely at Aila's deck of cards and the cards on the battlefield.

Shingo and Naoki: What?

Shingo: I've never seen that clan before.

Miwa: Izu said the name of the clan is Super Sentai.

Shingo: Super Sentai?

Naoki: What's that?

Miwa: You just watch, you'll miss the whole battle.

Kamui: Yeah, right now they both have 2 damage.

Aila's Turn:

Kai: You are quite a skilled fighter.

Aila: [smiled] You had seen nothing yet of my skills.

Kai: What do you mean?

Aila: You'll see, stand and draw, I ride, [turned into Go-on Yellow] Go-on Yellow (Grade 2 POW.10000), activate skill, counter blast (1) I discard one card and we both each draw one card.

Kai: We each draw one card? Okay then.

They both draw one card.

Shingo: They both get to draw?

Morikawa: That's new. It was the first time.

Aila: OhYellow leave the battlefield. Since I leave OhYellow in the field I can activate her skill, I can draw two cards from the deck. I call Shinken Blue (Grade 2 PWR. 10000), MagiYellow (Grade 2 POW. 9000) and Change Phoenix (Grade 1 POW 8000).

Shinken Blue is on the right front, MagiYellow is on the left front, and Change Phoenix is in the back of the right front rear-guard circle.

Aila: Activities MagiYellow counter blast (1), I retired Bellicosity Dragon.

She retired Bellicosity Dragon from the rear-guard.

Miwa: There goes his intercept.

Aila: Since I retired your rear-guard unit MagiYellow gets 4000 power (9000 4000 = 13000). Go for it!

Magi Yellow: Yes, my Vanguard.

MagiYellow attacks Kai's Vanguard with his Lightning Wand, causing it to take 3 Damage.

Aila: With the boost of Green Racer, Go-on Yellow attacks your Vanguard. (10000 5000 = 15000).

Kai: No guard.

Aila: Drive check [revealed a trigger] Critical Trigger gives all effects to Shiken Blue (10000 10000 = 20000, 2 critical)

First, Go-on Yellow attacks with a boosted Green Racer, leaving Kai with 4 damage.

Aila: Go attack!

Shinken Blue: On it my vanguard. (20000 8000 = 28000) [with a boost of Change Phoenix]

Change Phoenix gives the power to Shinken Blue as he uses his Water Arrow to fire at the vanguard.

Kai: Dragon Monk, Genjo (SLD.10000 20000 = 30000)

Kai managed to block the attack.

Izaki: He blocks her attack with a heal trigger.

Aila: [grunt] Turn end.

Naoki: Old man, what's happening?

Shin: Well, you see, Aila is now the president of the CF Foundation, and her first task is to challenge her to a Cardfight through any shop in order to gain their trust.

Shingo: I see, but why did she choose this shop?

Misaki: Guess she had her reasons for coming here.

They were questioning Aila's reasoning; now it's Kai's turn.

Kai's Turn:

Kai: Even though you've gotten better at this game, it's still not enough to defeat me. Stand and draw, ride the vanguard, [turned into Dragonic Overlord] Dragonic Overlord (Grade 3 PWR. 13000)

Aila: [eyes widening] He has a Dragonic Overlord unit, that's a very powerful one.

Kai: So you've heard of it?

Aila: Yeah (That's not good).

Kai: Imaginary Gift: Force with that gift add 10000 (PWR. 13000 10000 = 23000) power called Crested Dragon (Grade 3 PWR. 13000) and Dragon Knight, Nehalem (Grade 2 PWR 10000) Activate skill of Nehalem I retire Change Phoenix and he get 5000 (10000 5000 = 15000)

Crested Dragon is on the right front and Dragon Knight Nehalem is in the left front rear-guard circle.

Aila: (Nehalem get 5000 when it retired from rear-guard circle)

Kai: Activate the skill of Overlord Soulblast (1) add another 10000 power (23000 10000 = 33000)

Miwa: Now Overlord has 33000.

Kamui: Aila had no choice but to guard.

Kai: My Vanguard attacks your Vanguard.

Aila looked at the card and…

Aila: That's no guard.

Miwa: Wait, what?

Morikawa: She attended to no guard.

Kai: My twin drive first check, [reveal a critical trigger] Critical Trigger, second check [reveal a critical trigger]

Naoki: A double critical!

Kai: Give all effect to the vanguard (33000 10000 10000 = 53000, 3 critical)

Aila: Damage check first, [no trigger, second check [reveal a heal trigger]

Ken: She got a heal trigger, she still has a chance.

Aila: Power to my Vanguard (PWR. 10000 10000 = 20000) and recover one damage, third check [reveal draw trigger]

Misaki: She got another draw trigger.

Aila: Power my Vanguard again (PWR. 20000 10000 = 30000) [draw one card]

Kai: The success of my attack activates the skill of Overlord again, Counter Blast (1). I also discard two cards from the hand and he can stand once more. Attacked again (PWR. 53000 and 3 critical)

Aila: (He has 53000 power and 3 critical if he gets a critical trigger my attack will get through..)

Kai: Drive check, [no trigger] [gasped]

Aila: (He didn't get a critical)

Dragonic Overlord is about to attack Go-On Yellow but…

Aila: (Now is my chance) I guard Pink Mask. (SLD. 30000 20000 10000 = 60000)

Kai: Crested Dragon attacks! (PWR. 13000)

Aila: Guard again! (Red Turbo: SLD. 10000 5000=15000)

Kai: Then Nehalem (PWR. 15000)

Aila: No guard.

Kai: Turn end.

Aila: [calmed] (That was close, if I wouldn't survive Overlord Soul Blast skill, I could had 5 damage)

Morikawa: He was so close to beating her.

Kamui: How was she able to use two triggers simultaneously?

Ken: That discarded skill earlier. She knew what Dragonic Overlord Skills would do. She had a plan from the start during the attack.

Aila's Turn:

Aila: Stand and Draw, [draw a card]

She noticed the card was only a Grade 2, which meant she couldn't ride a Grade 3.

Aila: (There's no grade 3)

Mayumi: She looks like she's having a problem.

Ken: Don't worry, she's got this.

Naoki: She doesn't stand a chance.

Ken: What do you mean?

Naoki: As a top student, there's no way she's going to win.

Shingo: What do you mean?

Naoki: She's never played before.

Misaki: Naoki.

Naoki: She doesn's have what it takes to be a cardfighter.

Aila: I'm going to prove to all of you that I am a good Cardfighter.

Aila interrupted the game as everyone looked at her. She held the cards in her hand.

Aila: I will become the person who can be anyone else. The one who can bring happiness and save it. I will prove to you from the depths of my heart that I am worthy, like a flame.

Izu smiled at her. Then Aila looked at the Shiken Blue unit and noticed what she needed to do.

Aila: (Sechaan, what you said earlier about Grade 3, I'm not sure if this will work.)

"Flashbacks"

Aila and Sechaan were making the deck for the skill challenge tomorrow.

Aila: Okay, I managed to finish grades 0-2.

Sechaan: But we're almost done, I think the skills that you've been picking up have been good ones lately.

Aila: Sechaan, can I ask you something?

Sechaan: Sure.

Aila: When I read about the sentai records I thought I could use this.

She showed the Shikenger data from the table screen to Sechaan.

Sechaan: Shinkenger?

Aila: Yeah, Shiken Red in a Grade 3 Unit.

Sechaan: What did you have in mind, Aila?

Aila: I know all the clan skills, but this one is more powerful when used in conjunction with the others by the same Ranger team. No one could have predicted it.

Sechaan: You sure you want to use the Shinkengers?

Aila: I had to because if I didn't, they'd never...

Sechaan looked at Aila, sighed, and...

Sechaan: Very well, you will use it, I hope you are using it for the right reasons.

"End Flashbacks"

Aila: (I don't know about this, I still have 4 damage, but I had to trust my instincts).

As Sechaan watched Aila battle onscreen, he nodded, meaning she had a choice.

Aila: [smiled] (I knew I had a plan to tide of the game) Here I go, I activated the skill from Shinken Blue (Grade 2 PWR. 10000), since it has more cards in the drop zone I've been discarding, I can search a grade 3 through my deck from the same race and then a superior ride.

She yelled as the flame started to turn into a tornado, then a huge weapon sliced through the flame. Kai looked at her in surprise.

Aila: [turned into Shinken Red] Shinken Red (Grade 3 PWR.12000).

Kai: She can even do a superior ride.

Aila: Imaginary Gift: Force (PWR. 12000 10000 = 22000) Call Shinken Green (Grade 2 PWR 9000), Activate skill, counter blast (1) I can choose two cards from the drop zone and add them to my hand. Superior call Shinken Yellow (Grade 1 PWR. 8000)

Kai: Wait, what?

Kamui: She was able to superiorly ride a grade 3 from the grade 2 skill and pick up cards from the drop zone.

Izu: She can activate all the skills when the same race is in the battlefield, when she uses the same race unit she can activate all skills, but that's not all; she can also choose any card and add it to her hand from the drop zone.

Everyone were surprised.

Naoki: Is that even allowed?

Mayumi: Uh, didn't you forget that she is the president? She can make her own skills from her own deck anytime she wants. Someday, she will create her own cards and her own skills. Go for it!

Mayumi defended Aila from Naoki, and she admired her courage in doing so; she cheered her on.

Aila: I activate the Shinken Yellow skill to look in the top three cards of the deck. If it has the same race, I can call it a superior call, Shinken Pink (Grade 1 PWR 8000).

She calls Shinken Pink in the left rear-guard in the back with Shiken Blue on the front.

Aila: Activate Shinken Pink skill counter blast (1) by discarding one and she gets 5000. (PWR. 8000 5000 = 13000) Next I activate Shinken Red skill. I choose to discard one and draw two, adding another 10000 (PWR 22000 10000 = 32000). This is the power of the Super Sentai, the team will always have each other.

Aila completes the Shinkenger unit around the rear guard.

Ken: She completed the team in the rear guard.

Aila (Shinken Red Form): Everyone ready?

Shikenger: Yeah!

Aila: I attack your vanguard first.

Kai: [grunt] No guard.

Aila: Now my twin drive, first check, [no trigger] , second check [reveal a critical trigger]

Kai: [shocked] A critical trigger.

Aila: Power to Shinken Green (PWR. 8000 10000 = 18000) critical to the vanguard (2 critical)

Shinken Red attacked the Vanguard with the Fire Smasher.

Back at HQ, the data was starting to show increased unit power for Aila's team.

Sechaan: Whoa, what the..

"Back at the battle"

Kai: My damage check [first, reveal draw trigger] draw trigger, power to my Vanguard (PWR 13000 10000 = 23000) draw one, second check [reveal heal trigger]. Power the Vanguards again (PWR. 23000 10000 = 33000)

Misaki: And he got 5 damages.

Miwa: Don't worry Aila has 32000 power the attack wouldn't go through.

Aila: Are you sure about that?

Miwa: Huh?

Aila: When all of your units are in rear-guard, my vanguard can stand once more. Additionally, you cannot use Trigger Units; you can only use Normal Units during my second next turn.

Kai was surprised, just like everyone else.

Miwa: Kai has two trigger units.

Shingo: He has a complete guard, which means he can't guard with it.

Kai: No guard.

Aila: You ready, with boots of Shinken Pink, Shinken Blue attack Crested Dragon (PWR. 10000 13000=23000)

Shinken Blue: With me!

Shinken Pink: On it!

Shinken Blue and Pink attacked Crested Dragon and left the battlefield.

Aila: Next with the boost Shinken Yellow, Shiken Green attack Nehalem (PWR. 18000 8000 = 26000)

Shinken Green and Yellow pursued Nehalem as he disappeared.

Kamui: She attacks the rear guards; he can't intercept now.

Aila: Now my Vanguard, attack your Vanguard.

Kai: (Shinken Red has 32000, there'll be no problem with that, but if she gets a trigger). No guard.

Aila: Now, check my drive…

Everyone is waiting for Aila to flip the unit, and it was…

A critical.

Kai was shocked that Aila had pulled the critical trigger.

Aila: [smiled] critical trigger gives all the effects to the vanguard. (PWR. 32000 10000 = 42000, 3 critical )

Shinken Red grasped the Rekka Daizantou as flames swirled around it and charged towards Overlord.

Aila: This is who I am. I'll show the world what Vanguard is truly about!

She was ready to finish him, but Kai didn't do anything to defend; instead, he just smiled at her.

Slash (2x).

Shinken Red landed as Overlord fell to the ground.

Kai: Damage check…

He flipped and looked at the card while everyone was waiting for what kind of trigger it would be. When he turned back around...

Kai: [smiled] no trigger.

Aila smiled at Izu.

Back at HQ, Sechaan was happy that Aila won.

Sechaan: I knew she could do it.

Miwa: Wow, I can't believe it. Kai lost.

Kamui: Yeah.

Kai: [walks towards Aila] You're amazing, Aila. I hope we get to battle each other again.

Aila: Yeah, I guess we will.

Shingo: She must be amazing after all.

Naoki stayed silent.

Kamui: Hey Aila, would you like to battle me?

Miwa: Me too can.

Morikawa: Same here.

Aila: Okay, okay.

Kai looked away from Aila as he walked to the table and sat down, with Miwa.

Kai: She finally did it!

Miwa: Huh, did what exactly is the

Kai: Connected Vanguard again.

Miwa: What, how did you figure it out?

Kai ignores Miwa.

Miwa: Come on, tell me.

Kai: [looking at Aila] (Aila, the way you battled today, it reminded me of how Aichi used to do, you proved yourself today, I believe you will become a great President and a great Cardfighter).
