Right part 3 of the You Show VS LDS is here, and after that we move onto other events taking place at the same time as this event.

Also sorry this took a while to get out, the reason is that, I've been editing the previous chapters, for spelling errors, and to put the updates of cards in the right place, such as Odd-Eyes's new effects from 11 to 5.

"Speaking"

During the events at the You Show Duel School, the employees of LDS were patrolling the streets, hoping to catch the Duelist who was giving off high levels of Xyz Summoning energy. Within this group is the Teacher of the Fusion Course for said school, his name was Marco.

"Gentlemen keep your guard up, the Xyz Duelist could be anywhere..." he spoke with caution in his voice, with the others taking his words to heart as they spread out to look in teams of two.

"Hey, did you hear the rumor going about?" the man with Marco who was his partner said, "Why what rumor do you speak off?" he asked, "Well apparently the rumor goes that the lot to do this work before us never returned!" he said, a bit spoked by his own words.

"Ah yes, I've heard of this rumor, apparently whenever these high levels of Xyz Summoning energy appear, they say there are card laying about at the scene of the crime." Marco said making his partner get a shiver down his spine.

"I mean, not that I believe this rumor, but apparently during these burst of Xyz energy, there is also smaller burst of Fusion Summoning energy." he added onto his part of the story.

"But aren't you worried then?" his partner asked, "Now why would I be worried? After all the people that vanished were weaker in terms of Fusion energy, while mine is higher than theirs. Should we face this Duelist it should be fairly..." Marco said but when he noticed his partner was standing behind him a few feet, the look his partner had was that of fear.

"My friend, what is wrong?" he said, not noticing a presence behind him, when the partner slowly pointed behind him, Marco quickly looked back in a small rush of fear, and there standing was a figure in a purple trench coat and a red scarf and glasses cover their face.

"Who are you? Answer the question!" Marco demanded, but all the figure did was raise their arm, which held a Duel Disk, one that the two had never seen before. "Hmm, so you're the Xyz Duellist going about with the rumor then?" he added as he too raised his Duel Disk.

Above them on the roof top was Yuto, who was sighing behind his mask, "I know we need to stop the Fusion Scum, but he pushing himself too far." Yuto thought, with him then thinking of the incident he had with the LDS Student he encountered back then… along with those two.

"That girl looked just like Ruri, but she didn't know who I was..." he added in his head, "Unless she somehow escaped the Fusion Dimension and is hiding out in a disguise, she must be afraid they're watching her, so she didn't reveal who she was..." he added trying to make himself believe his own thoughts.

But then he remembered the words she spoke to him, "But that doesn't explain why she didn't recognise me, my Deck or Dark Rebellion… and why did she call me Yuya?" he thought back to it more. "That other girl with her, I can't find her, but if I do, I'll get some answers out of her as she was fairly close with 'Ruri'!" he finished.

"DUEL!" he heard from within the alley, as this meant that Shun was now Duelling the one that had declared himself as a Fusion User, but his partner had also joined the Duel, making it a 2 vs 1 Duel against Shun. "This shouldn't take very long." he said as he sat down on the edge of the roof and just watched the Duel take place below...


"Again Reiji, what are doing here?" Oliver asked him, as he and his brothers glared at him. "Seriously, do these four know one another?" Ronald asked out loud, clearly annoyed at not getting answers. "Don't you know who that is Ronald?" Azara asked him, getting a no as a response, "That's Reiji Akaba, CEO of LDS, the Leo Duel School, having taken over when his father, Leo Akaba died in an accident a couple of years ago." she explained to him.

This info of course shocked Ronald, who then turned to glare at Reiji too, but his was unnoticeable, "So that's the son of the Professor that ordered Fusion to attack my home..." he thought clenching his hands.

"I heard Mother was up to some business with You Show, and I wanted to see her." Reiji said having answered Oliver's question, while looking to Himika "But why not walk up to your mother, instead of hiding in the shadows like a snake?" Matthew retorted to him.

"I would have said hello, but when I got here, it was during Yuya Sakaki's Duel against Hokuto..." Reiji said with him staring at Hokuto who was nervous under his stare, "I must say it was impressive to watch the Duelist who created the Pendulum Summon up close, so I stood back to watch the rest of the Duels, but seeing that the school now needs a tie breaker to this tie breaker, I decided to show myself." he said then looked to Yuya, "So what do you say Yuya?" he asked him.

But Yuya just stood there with his goggles down, "I hope Yuya is going to be okay..." Ayu said, "He must be nervous about this Duel!" Futoshi said, "Of course he would, this Duel will decide if the school stay with us!" Tatsuya said.

"Yuya..." Yuzu said to herself, very concerned about the events taking place right now, "Please forgive me! I'm so ashamed, I've failed to bring honor your school." Gongenzaka went on, clearly ignoring the way Yuya was acting. "And now he stressed out by this new contender." he added.

"No he's not..." Sora said taking a bite out of a chocolate bar he was holding, clearly bored about the whole thing, "Just look at him, one could tell that he's ready for this." he finished. "He's right, I'm ready to save the future of our school..." Yuya said, "I except your challenge!" he said.

"You should just give up now Yuya..." Himika said, with them all facing her, "Nobody is strong enough to beat Reiji… especially those three!" she said pointing at the Denisu Brothers, "That may be true, but we all came close to doing that." Matthew retorted making her frown at his response.

"Could we please get on with the Duel, the time for talking is over for now!" Reiji said to Yuya, "Our actions on the field while do the talking for us!" he said...


"So how do you three know Reiji Akaba?" Yuzu asked the brothers a while later as Yuya and Reiji were now standing in the field area, getting their Decks ready, while the rest were watching from the viewing room. "We each meet and Dueled him during last years Maimi Championship, in the Senior Division of the Tournament." Matthew said to her. "So he's also in the Senior Division?" she asked, "Yes, but one could say he close to being a Pro..." he added on, staring at Reiji through the glass panel. "I still can't figure out what his motive was..." he had noted that the odds of all of them facing him were extremely slim, yet it happened so fluidly.

"And each and everyone of you lost to him, which just proves that Reiji is-" Himika added her two pence into the conversation, "Oh please, I watched it last year, and those Duels against Reiji were even." Azara interrupted, annoyed with Himika's attitude. "If the brothers had gotten the Action Card that saved Reiji from defeat, they would have beaten him!" she finished.

"By the way Ms Kaida..." Himika said to her, "Have you told your friends that you had the lucky chance to enter a private Dueling tournament and won the whole thing." she said, with Azara very nervous that Himika knew of that.

"A private Dueling Tournament?" Sora said, "Why yes, and the prize she got for that was what saved her from the streets." she said with Azara looking away from her. "Okay you're clearly a woman who will use someone's history to get what you want, but you need to shut up you hag!" Nigel said defending Azara who was warmed by his defense.

"H-Hag! Why you..." Himika said seething with anger, in the control room, Shuzo was getting the Field ready for the two. "Reiji Akaba… This may be Yuya's toughest Duel yet." he said, as while Reiji just stood there staring at Yuya, Yuya was annoyed by this and gritted his teeth.

"I don't like the look Yuya's making!" Ayu said hugging Yuzu's arm. "Calm down Ayu, it'll be okay." she said to her, "Yuya can handle him easily." Gongenzaka said, "Actually Gong, Yuya may lose this." Matthew said, making Yuzu and Gongenzaka gasp.

"How could you say something like that?" Yuzu said to him annoyed, "If Yuya couldn't beat me in our Duel, then he can't beat Reiji at all, as he is right now that is..." he said silencing her.

"It's nice that the brothers know they're beneath Reiji..." Himika thought with a smile, as she had heard what they were talking about.

"This is it, the school either stays or goes to them, I've got to win this." Yuya thought while worried about what could happen to make him lose, "What if the cards are against me? What if I trip during the Duel? What if I..." he carried on his head.

"Yuya!" Yuzu shouted to Yuya, making him snap out of his thoughts, "Huh?" he said looking to her, "Remember that You Show trains us to become Dueltainers, and what's important is too smile!" she said.

"My smile..." he said slowly, a few seconds passed, as he then smiled, and pulled his goggles up, "She's right! I can't let the pressure get to me, after all a Duel is about making us smile." he said, "So let's make this the most funniest Duel yet!" he said.

"I can't wait to see him lose that smile of his." Himika said, "First thing first, we need the appropriate field for the show." Yuya added to Reiji, "Your school, your rules." was all Reiji said.

"Pick the best one you can think of Principal!" Yuya shouted to Shuzo, "Yuya, you have no idea how serious this Duel will be for you, Reiji Akaba is nearly a pro, having won every Duel he's had… which makes me wonder, why is he so driven to Duel like this?" Shuzo thought. "Reiji says that he doesn't mind what the field is, and Yuya will need all the help that he can get to win… Which gives me the perfect field in mind for him." he added, as he typed into the system, "Alright! Get set to Duel! I activate the Action Field, Acrobatic Circus!" he shouted out.

The field then started to activate, and when finished, the entire field had become a literal circus, with high top platforms, trampolines, trapeze swings, and for some reason floating coloured balls.

"Wow! This is amazing." Ronald said looking at the field, "Reminds me of Yusho's Duels back in Heartland..." he thought remembering his first time watching Yusho Duel.

"Okay Yuya, the stage is set, now all you need to do is put on the show!" Shuzo said now sitting down, while Yuya and Reiji activated their Duel Disks.

"The two titans of the schools begin their clash of monsters..." Yuzu said, "Yuya Sakaki of You Show..." Ayu, Futoshi and Tatsuya said, "Versus Reiji of LDS, only one will walk away from this the victor!" Matthew, Oliver and Azara said.

"ACTION…" the other students said, as the bubble containing the Action Cards then popped, scattering the card across the field.

"DUEL!" both Reiji and Yuya shouted as they each drew five cards.

Reiji's LP: 4000

Yuya's LP: 4000

Turn 1

"Since you let us pick the field, you can go first." Yuya said to Reiji, "Oh, you thought that letting you pick was going to change anything? Either way I'll be taking you up on that offer, so the first turn is mine!" Reiji said.

"And start my turn, I'll activate 3 Spells!" he said taking the first turn, while Yuya was confused at why he told them the amount he would use. "First I activate the Continious Spell, Dark Contract with the Gate!" he said as the card appeared on the field.

"Dark Contract?" Ayu said, "Cards that Reiji uses for his Deck, If you didn't know, Reiji is the CEO of LDS, and the Dark Contracts are deals he makes with his Deck, like a business man would do to gain something..." Matthew said to her. "But a deal also need payment." Oliver added.

"During the standby phase of my next turn, I shall take 1000 points of damage as long as this card is on the field!" Reiji said shocking most but Matthew, Nigel, Oliver and Azara. "Why take such damage for? It's like he's throwing the Duel away!" Yuzu said.

"But as payment for this, once per turn, I can add 1 D/D monster from Deck to my Hand!" he said, "I add D/D Cerberus to my Hand!" he said as the card ejected from his Deck.

"D/D?" Ayu said confused again, "It stands for Different Dimension, as the monsters are out of this world." Sora said to her, "How do you know this?" Azara said suspiciously, "I'm guessing." he said as he didn't want to tell him that the Professor told him about Reiji's Deck, should he come to Duel Reiji.

"The second one I activated is another copy of the Dark Contract with the Gate! Letting me add another D/D monster to my Hand!" he said, "What! So he'll end up losing half of his LP!" Gongenzaka shouted in shock.

"I add D/D Lilith to my Hand!" he said while Yuya just looked at him in confusion and shock, "And for the third, I activate the Continious Spell, Dark Contract with the Swamp King!" he said as a third Spell appeared on the field.

"Great, that card again..." Oliver said annoyed, "Like the other two before it, it will deal me 1000 points of damage during my next standby phase!" he said shocking them again, "3000 damage! He's taking too much of a risk for this, he must have a trick for this!" Yuya said.

"Not really a trick, as the gain I receive for this card is that it allows me to Fusion Summon without using a Fusion or Polymerization card!" he said shocking them again except for Matthew, Nigel, Oliver, Azara and the LDS group.

"So that's what he was going for, a Fusion Summon!" Yuya yelled, "So you're still following all this then, now watch as I Fuse Cerberus and Lilith in my Hand!" he said "Hellhound that bares its fangs, vampire of the dark night, in a whirlpool of light from the realm of the dead, become one and give birth to a new king!" he said as the monsters glowed blue and red, before swirling together into a vortex.

"Fusion Summon!" he said as his Extra Deck opened and ejected a Fusion monster card, "Be born Level 6! D/D/D Flame King Genghis!" he said taking the card and placing it onto his blade, with D/D/D Fusion monster appearing, with its sword and shield.

D/D/D Flame King Genghis: FIRE, Level: 6 [Fiend/Fusion/Effect] ATK/2000 DEF/1500

"He's a Fusion Summoner!" Gongenzaka shouted out, "But he took a big risk to get out a monster with 2000 ATK, while he'll take 3000 damage for it on his next turn." Yuzu pointed out to him. "Unless its super powerful!" Ayu said, meanwhile Sora narrowed his eyes at the sight of the Fusion Monster, "The Professor never said that Reiji could Fusion Summon." Sora thought.

"Why does it have three D's?" Tatsuya asked. "That's stands for Different Dimension Demon!" Azara said to him, having seen the monster before during last years matches against the Denisu Brothers.

"I place 2 cards face-down and end my turn!" Reiji said as the cards appeared then faded, "Your turn now." he said to Yuya. "He has no cards left in his hand, this could be dangerous for him." Yuzu said

Reiji's Hand x 0

Turn 2

While Yuya was about to start his turn, Reiji pushed his glasses up, then played with his face for some reason. "He sure is full of himself." Ayu yelled annoyed by this.

"He's trying to egg Yuya into his trap. I mean he's basically threw away 3000 LP away, meaning he wants to be attacked so Yuya can activate his face-downs." Sora said, "You're right." Yuzu realised, "That cocky scum, I hate people like that!" Gongenzaka yelled out. "Put him in his place Big Bro!" Tatsuya, "You said you saw last years Duels, right?" Nigel asked Azara, "Yeah and because of that, I know what else Reiji is capable of..." she said to him.

"My turn! I draw!" Yuya said drawing his card, "Time to start the show with Whiplash Magician!" he said Normal Summoning the monster.

Whiplash Magician: EARTH, Level: 4 [Spellcaster/Effect] ATK/1700 DEF/900

"Its the Magician that he Pendulum Summoned back then..." Reiji thought, "From going back into Yuya Sakaki's Dueling Records, this monster matches the Performapal monster Whip Snake, due to their Level, Attribute, effect and ATK & DEF matching..." he added to himself, what he couldn't figure out is what caused such a transformation.

"I now activate his effect! Once per turn, he can switch the ATK and DEF of one monster on the field, and I choose Flame King!" he said as Whiplash grazed Flame King with his magic infused whip, making the D/D/D monster weaker. Genghis's ATK/DEF: 2000/1500 = 1500/2000.

"Now Whiplash is stronger!" Ayu said while Futoshi did his dance, "Battle! Whiplash attacks Genghis!" Yuya said as Whiplash tossed him one of his whips to Yuya, then jumped and brought his other down at the weakened monster.

"I activate the Continious Trap, Dark Contract with the Witch!" Reiji said activating his Trap, "Another Dark Contract?!" Gongenzaka said, "So that means..." Yuzu concluded to herself.

"Once again I'll be taking another 1000 damage during my next standby phase!" he said, as Yuya then jumped around. "But Genghis will gain for my payment, as he now gains 1000 ATK!" he said, 1500 + 1000 = 2500. (Genghis)

"Now Genghis is stronger!" Futoshi cried out, having stopped his dancing, with Yuya he had just grabbed an Action Card, having jumped from floating ball to the next then landing on a high balcony.

"I've got a trick of my own up my sleeve now, as I activate the Action Spell, High Dive!" Yuya said as the card appeared, "This card will boost Whiplash's ATK by 1000 until the end of the turn!" he said, Whiplash's ATK: 1700 + 1000 = 2700.

Whiplash, who had slowed down from when Genghis received its power up, had picked up the pace, while Reiji jumped in front of Genghis, who then launched him somewhere else, with him then activating his final card and smirking, while Whiplash caused an explosion when it attacked Genghis. 2500 = 1500. (Genghis)

The lot from LDS were shocked, except for Himika, who gained her own smirk, when the dust from the attack cleared, Genghis was still standing, Whiplash was shocked by this and quickly jumped back to Yuya's side.

"Huh? It's still around?" Yuya asked confused, but then came up with a thought, "So that means..." he said looking to Reiji who was also high up. "Correct, I activated the Action Spell, Evasion! Thereby negating Whiplash's attack!" Reiji said to him as the card in question was right near him.

"Nice work there Reiji, couldn't have done better myself." Yuya said to him, "Hmm, this seems to be even so far." Shuzo said, "No its not." Yuzu said, "She's right, Reiji still has to pay up for his Contracts, and having four means he's lost all his LP!" Gongenzaka said.

"So when Yuya ends his turn, Reiji will lose before he can make his move!" Ronald said, while Azara and the brothers were just watching quietly, "Huh? Why are you four all quiet for?" he asked them.

"Because they know he'll survive, think about it, why would he activate that Trap when he would have survived without it?" Sora said to them. "Just before Whiplash attacked, Genghis's ATK went down to 1500 for some reason. Meaning Yuya must have fallen into a trap of Reiji's." he added.

"Why are you laughing for?" Yuya asked when he saw Reiji give a small laugh, "Just remembering when you said you letting me go first as a favour, so far, I can tell your the kind of person who is generally a kind person." Reiji said confusing him.

"However that kindness of yours will lead to your defeat!" he proclaimed, making Whiplash and Yuya tense up, "So if you end your turn now, you'll achieve victory without so much as leaving a scratch on me, but your mindset will want fair play, and that will lead to your downfall instead!" he added.

"What is he going on about?" Futoshi asked, "Those four seem to know what's up." Sora said as they looked to Matthew, Nigel, Oliver and Azara, who again were just being quiet. "Don't listen to him Big Bro!" Ayu said.

"You can say all you want, but its your own actions that made you do what you did, so now I end my turn was a face-down! Your move!" Yuya said as the card appeared then faded.

"And because its ended, Whiplash's effect end returning Genghis's ATK and DEF to normal." he added, 1500/2000 = 2000/1500. (Genghis) "And so does High Dive's effect on Whiplash." 2700 = 1700. (Whiplash)

Yuya's Hand x 4

Turn 3

"Now its time for you pay up 4000 LP due to your Contracts!" Yuya said, "But Yuya. What Contracts do you speak off?" Reiji asked veining innocences, confusing most of them, but they were suddenly shocked as each of the four face-up Contracts burst into particles.

"What!? But how?" Yuya yelled, "They've been broken of course, as you needed to pay attention during your turns. I had activated my Trap, Contract Laundering!" he said to him, "It allowed me to negate the effects of all my Dark Contracts and destroy them!" he said with a smile.

"Now it makes since, the card that allowed Genghis's ATK to increase had its effect negated, making it go back down." Sora realised.

"That's how a business can go down sometimes, if not satisfied with the end results, they can end the agreement, that's what Reiji can do with his cards." Matthew said to them. "So by negating those Contracts he won't take any damage now." Gongenzaka shouted.

"You're correct Matthew, you did seem to grasp the meaning of my Deck better than your brothers… After all out of the three of you, you withstood it the longest before falling to it." Reiji said to Matthew, making him grit his teeth.

"Due to Laundering's effect, for every Contract that was destroyed by it, I can draw 1 card!" he said drawing 4 cards along with his actual draw making a total of five.

Yuya was gritting his teeth at this, but then he slowly smiled, "Man, to be honest, I'm glad your still around for the Duel, as it would have been too easy." he said, "And now that it can carry on, I can put my skills to use, like my dad does for his Duels." he added.

"So you wish to carry on Yusho Sakaki's Legacy do you?" Reiji asked, from his tone, he seemed to have known him personally, which Yuya noted "Wait, you knew my dad?" he asked back, "Are you serious? How could we not know of him, your dad was famous..." Yaiba said to him.

"Yeah, famous for being a coward!" Hokuto said with a laugh at the end, "HOW DARE YOU SAY SUCH THINGS ABOUT HIM!" Reiji yelled, silencing both Yaiba and Hokuto into fear. "Morons..." Masumi muttered to herself, while looking at them.

"Forgive me for that outburst, its just that I admire your father's achievements Yuya, Yusho made Action Dueling popular and amazing as it is right now, as expected of the pioneer of the art." Reiji said calmer this time, while Yuya had mixed feeling about him.

"He knew my dad, but how?" he thought, "I've waited for a chance to prove myself against his ways of Dueling, and now that chance is here." he carried on, "So now we must both use our full power. From here on out, I'll be getting serious!" he declared

"Serious!? You mean to tell me you haven't been before?" Yuya said in fright, as this reminded him of his Duel against Matthew, who went full force after saying those words to him.

"Let's see shall we? I Normal Summon the Level 3 Tuner monster, D/D Nighthowl!" Reiji said as a demonic set of teeth appeared on the field.

D/D Nighthowl: DARK, Level: 3 [Fiend/Tuner/Effect] ATK/300 DEF/600

"A Tuner monster!" Yuya yelled, "That monster looks like it could use a branch as a toothpick!" Gongenzaka proclaimed, "Perfect, now the real Duel can begin..." Himika said to herself grinning.

"Since it was Normal Summoned, Nighthowl can Special Summon a D/D monster from my Graveyard, but at the cost of that monster's ATK and DEF becoming 0!" he said, "And I pick D/D Lilith!" he said as the monster appeared.

D/D Lilith: DARK, Level: 4 [Fiend/Effect] ATK/100 DEF/2100 = 0/0

As it appeared near Yuya, it gave him a fright, making him jump into Whiplash's arms, "Now I Tune the Level 3 Nighthowl to the Level 4 Lilith!" Reiji shouted as both the monsters grabbing onto trapeze swings then swinging closer to each other, when close enough Nighthowl turned into three tuning rings, with Lilith flying through them, losing its colours and having four stars appear.

4* + 3* = 7*

"Howls that tear through the night, with the swiftness of a gale give birth to a new king!" Reiji said as the stars and rings lined up as beam shot through, "Synchro Summon! Be born Level 7! D/D/D Gust King Alexander!" he shouted, taking a Synchro monster card from his Extra Deck this time and placing it onto his blade, with the Synchro Monster appearing in a gust of wind.

D/D/D Gust King Alexander: WIND, Level: 7 [Fiend/Synchro/Effect] ATK/2500 DEF/2000

"No way! He can Synchro Summon as well!" Yuya said in shock, "Fusion and Synchro Summoning together at the same time." Gongenzaka said, "But Azara can Fusion and Xyz Summon, so this isn't new to us." Ayu said trying to cheer them up.

"Who said he was done Ayu?" Nigel said to her, shocking them, "You don't mean he can-" Yuzu said shock that he implying the third.

"Nigel's right, as Genghis's effect now activates! When a D/D monster is Special Summoned to the field except for him, he can Special Summon a D/D monster from my Graveyard!" Reiji said, "Once again appear D/D Lilith!" he said as the monster appeared again.

"And make this even worse for you, Alexander has the same effect! So now I Special Summon D/D Cerberus from the Graveyard!" he said as the monster appeared next to Lilith.

D/D Cerberus: DARK, Level: 4 [Fiend/Pendulum/Effect] ATK/1800 DEF/600, PS: 6

As Yuya was in shock of this, he noticed something on Reiji's Blade, "Is that Cerberus's card?" he thought taking a glance but he couldn't see it properly, "For a moment I thought I could see a..." he thought, but then noticed something about Cerberus and Lilith's Levels.

"Two Level 4 monsters! Don't tell me you can-" he yelled out, with this making the others catch on to his thinking, "Correct, now watch as I use the Level 4 Cerberus and Lilith to build the Overlay Network!" Reiji said as the monsters in question turned into beams of purple energy, shot into the air, they into the galaxy vortex that appeared.

"In order to subjugate all that reside in this world, now descend onto the peak of this world as its new king!" he said as monster moved about in the thundercloud. "Xyz Summon!" he shouted as he took the Xyz monster from his Extra Deck and placed it over its material on the field. "Be born Rank 4! D/D/D Wave King Caesar!" he said as a third king appeared, with two blue Overlay Units orbiting it at a distance.

D/D/D Wave King Caesar: WATER, Rank: 4 [Fiend/Xyz/Effect] ATK/2400 DEF/1200, OLUs: 2

"An Xyz Monster... As well..." Yuya got out slowly, "Fusion, Synchro and Xyz, that's how each of us lost to him, he swarms the field with Extra Deck monsters..." Matthew said, "But the ones I went against were the higher version of these three." he added in his head.

"Such power, to summon monsters in three different ways!" Shuzo said while Reiji adjusted his glasses again, "Just to let you know, this isn't my full power… That will come later as a surprise." Reiji said looking at his Deck with a smirk...


Back in the alleyway, was Marco and his partner, now Duelling the Xyz Duellist, which happened to be Shun, while Yuto watched from above.

Turn 1

"I'll go first!" Shun said, "I Summon Raidraptor Vanishing Lanius!" he said summoning a metallic bird with an assortment of weapons.

Raidraptor - Vanishing Lanius: DARK, Level: 4 [Winged-Beast/Effect] ATK/1300 DEF/1600

"Vanishing Lanius effect activates, letting me Special Summon a Raidraptor from Hand! So I Summon another Vanishing Lanius!" he said as another identical monster appeared, "And then this one will let me Summon my third Vanishing Lanius!" he added as a third appeared.

"Hmm, 3 Level 4 monsters. You definitely are the Duelist causing all this." Marco said to him, "Just keep quiet Fusion Scum! I place two cards face-down and end my turn!" Shun said as two cards appeared then vanished.

Shun's Hand x 0

Turn 2

"M-M-My turn!" Marco's partner said frightened of Shun, "I Normal Summon Vermillion Wyvern Mech!" he said as the monster appeared on the field, it was a red mechanical wyvern.

Vermillion Wyvern Mech: FIRE, Level 4 [Machine/Effect] ATK/1500 DEF/1300

"When Wyvern Mech is Normal Summoned, I can Special Summon a Vermillion monster from my Hand!" he said, "I Summon another Wyvern Mech!" he said as a second copy of the monster appeared.

"And since I control a Vermillion monster, I can Special Summon this card from my hand as well, the Tuner monster Vermillion Salamander Mech!" he said as a red metallic salamander appeared.

Vermillion Salamander Mech: FIRE, Level: 1 [Machine/Tuner/Effect] ATK/200 DEF/500

"I Tune the Level 1 Salamander to my two Level 4 Wyverns!" he shouted out as the monsters soared into the air.

4* + 4* + 1* = 9*

"Synchro Summon! Level 9! Vermillion Dragon Mech!" he said as the monster appeared on the field.

Vermillion Dragon Mech: FIRE, Level: 9 [Machine/Synchro/Effect] ATK/2700 DEF/1800

"A Synchro monster! You must be a Pawn of Fusion!" Shun declared, "Pawn of Fusion?" Marco thought to himself confused, "Battle! Dragon Mech attacks the middle Vanishing Lanius!" his partner shouted out, as the Mech shot a stream of fire at the middle Raidraptor monster.

"Trap activate, Negate Attack! Your attack is negated!" Shun said activating his Trap, which stopped the stream of fire. "I end my turn..." he said defeated.

"Idiot! Why didn't you put any cards down?" Marco yelled at him annoyed, shocking his partner, "Wait! Can I get a do over?!" his partner quickly asked as his Duel Disk told him that his turn had actually finished, making him kneel over in depression at this.

LDS's employee's Hand x 3

Turn 3

"You fool..." Marco sighed out, "My turn! Draw!" he said drawing his card, "I activate the Spell, Polymerization!" he said as Shun glared and tensed up at the card, "He seems to fear Fusion Monsters, well this is perfect!" Marco thought that it was fear, but it wasn't.

"I Fuse Zombrya the Dark and Maryokutai in my Hand together and Fusion Summon The Last Warrior from Another Planet!" he said as the Fusion monster appeared.

The Warrior from Another Planet: EARTH, Level: 7 [Warrior/Fusion/Effect] ATK/2350 DEF/2300

"As long as its on the field, no one can Normal, Flip or Special Summon monsters anymore!" Marco said, "You should have brought out your Xyz Monster when you had the chance." he added.

"Battle! The Warrior from Another Planet will attack the Vanishing Lanius to your left!" he said as the Fusion Monster destroyed the mention monster. Shun's LP: 4000 – 1050 = 2950. "I then place 1 card face-down to end my turn! Listen, why don't you just surrender and we can sort this out in a calm collected way." he said as the card appeared then faded.

Marco's Hand x 2

Upon him saying this, Shun clenched his hand into a fist, at Marco's overconfidence, "They've lost..." Yuto said to himself.


"I still can't believe it, Fusion, Synchro and Xyz all controlled at the same time!" Ronald said amazed by the monsters on the field. "Poor Whiplash, its all by itself." Ayu said, "Don't worry, Yuya will find a way out of this." Yuzu said to her, "I hope..." she thought.

"And now time for the real Duel to begin! Battle! Flame King Genghis attacks Whiplash Magician!" Reiji order as Genghis ran for the monster. "I activate the Quick-Play Spell, Token's Illusion!" Yuya as his face down flipped up.

This card lets me Special Summon 3 Illusion Tokens in Defense, and your monster must get through them first before anything else I control!" he explained as three strange small magical golem monsters appeared in front of Whiplash, each having their own colour, which were red, yellow and blue.

Illusion Token: LIGHT, Level: 1 [Spellcaster/Token] ATK/0 DEF/0 x3

"Very well then, Genghis attack the yellow one!" Reiji reordered, as Genghis moved to attack the mention one destroying it with no damage dealt as it was in Defense Position.

"Quick thinking on Yuya's part otherwise he would have taken serious damage!" Tatsuya said, "This next attack will blow you away! Alexander attacks the blue one!" Reiji said as Alexander swiftly destroyed the second one, again no damage was dealt.

"He's picking them off with no mercy." Azara said, "That's just how he is, and Yuya will take damage this turn." Matthew said.

"Alexander's effect now activates! Once per turn when he destroys a monster by battle, he can destroy another monster you control!" Reiji said making the last token flinch at this, and shocked Yuya.

"Alexander will now get rid of the last Token!" Reiji said to him, as Alexander swiped at the Token destroying it. "And now Caesar will attack Whiplash!" he said as Caesar charged at the magician, who could do nothing but look up in fear at the Wave King as it was destroyed. Yuya's LP: 4000 – 700 = 3300.

"Four monsters wiped out in a single turn!" Futoshi cried out in panic, "Why didn't I use Whiplash's effect? I could have saved him." Yuya thought in shock. "I've done what I wanted this turn, so I end it with a face-down!" Reiji said as the card appeared on the field then faded.

Reiji's Hand x 3

Turn 4

"That… Was... An amazing performance! Its still hard to believe you can summon all three methods in one Duel..." Yuya said smiling, "But now for me to take the spotlight! I draw!" he drew his card.

"Now while I can't Fusion Synchro or Xyz Summon yet..." Yuya said, "Yet?" Reiji thought, "At the moment I do have something..." he said as he looked at the card he just drew, "Which is about to take centre stage in this show!" he said to him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! Could I have your attention please?" he said in his show voice, "What you saw before was just the warm up, now comes the main act!" he cheered, and this excited the students, mainly the three kids. "It's coming!" Ayu said smiling.

"Using the Scale 1 Stargazer Magician and Scale 8 Timegazer Magician, I now set the Pendulum Scale!" he said placing the cards into their respective locations, with the Magicians taking their place on the field, with their number underneath them.

(1) P-E-N-D-U-L-U-M (8)

"I can now Summon monsters from Levels 2 through 7 all at the same time! Swing pendulum of the soul, draw an arc of light across the ether! Pendulum Summon! Come forth my monsters!" he shouted.

"Take to the stage, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" he said as the dragon roared as it spinned, "And appear Ring Fire Magician!" he added as a male magician appeared in what appeared to a ring leader's clothing, red in colour, with 2 golden rings in each hand, he had gloves on, that on top side of its hand were small patched of fire.

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon: DARK, Level: 7 [Dragon/Pendulum/Effect] ATK/2500 DEF/2000, PS: 4

Ring Fire Magician: FIRE, Level: 3 [Spellcaster/Pendulum/Effect] ATK/1300 DEF/1000, PS: 5

"Hey its a new Pendulum Monster!" Tatsuya said at seeing the new monster, "Let's see what Yuya can do with it." Yuzu said encouragingly, "Go in for the attack!" Gongenzaka shouted out, "Please Yuya, put on a show to save our school!" Shuzo said.

"Now if I could direct your attention Odd-Eyes please, he's about to put his power to good use." Yuya said as he dived off his platform, shocking the lot in the viewing room, while Reiji watched with interest, while falling Yuya pulled his goggles down to cover his eyes, did a flip and grabbed onto Odd-Eyes horns as he landed on his ace's back.

"Battle! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon attack Flame King Genghis!" he said as Odd-Eyes charged at the Flame King, leaped into the air above the monster, "Give the crowd an amazing attack they won't forget! Spiral Strike Burst!" he said as Odd-Eyes released a blast at the Flame King, who quickly shielded himself.

"Odd-Eyes's effect now activates! When he battles a Level 5 or higher monster, battle damage is doubled! Reaction Force!" he shouted as Odd-Eyes orbs glowed, increasing the power in the blast, this boost in power was too much as Genghis's shield was forced out of the away, now taking the full force of the blast, he was destroyed, Reiji's LP: 4000 – 1000 = 3000.

"That was awesome! Now Reiji only has two monsters lefted!" Tatsuya said, "And now Odd-Eyes other effect activates!" Yuya said shocking the LDS lot, "Since he destroyed a Level 5 or higher monster by battle, he can destroy another monster you control, and deal you half that monsters ATK! Burning Force!" he said shocking Himika further.

"The monster I pick is Wave King Caesar!" he said as Odd-Eyes released as condensed red sphere at Wave King Caesar, who tried to deflect it but it failed to budge the blast, so he was destroyed, but not before absorbing one of his Overlay Units with blast keeping it from being seen, 3000 – 1200 = 1800. (Reiji) "This dragon is powerful!" Reiji thought bracing himself.

"And now for Ring Fire's effect to take the stage! When a Pendulum Monster I control destroys a monster you control, he can give that Pendulum Monster 200 ATK!" Yuya said as Ring Fire tossed one of his rings into the air, that then expanded and became lit with fire.

"Odd-Eyes can also attack again due to Ring Fire's effect!, so jump the ring to keep the show going!" he added as Odd-Eyes roared then jumped through the ring, Odd-Eyes's ATK: 2500 + 200 = 2700. "That's one hot effect!" Ronald said. "Just like his old man… But shorter!" Shuzo thought.

"Odd-Eyes attacks Gust King Alexander! Spiral Strike Burst!" Yuya said Odd-Eyes charged another blast at Gust King, who also tried to defend himself, "Odd-Eyes's first effect kicks in again! Since Alexander is Level 5 or higher, the battle damage is doubled!" he added, as Gust King was vaporised. 1800 – 400 = 1400. (Reiji)

"Odd-Eyes just dethroned all three kings in one turn!" Ayu cheered out, "Now Yuya has the upper side in this Duel." Tatsuya said, "Thank god I was so worried that he would have..." Yuzu said, "It's far from over you lot." Matthew said shocking them, "Huh? What do you mean by that?" Gongenzaka asked.

While on the field, Yuya jumped off Odd-Eyes and petted his leg, "Good job buddy!" Yuya said to him, who purred at the compliment, "That was good stress relief, I thought they would have hurt you back then." Odd-Eyes roared, leaning into Yuya's touch. He had been worried when those three Kings appeared last turn.

"Now I hope everyone enjoyed our performance? As due to Ring Fire's effect, he can't attack the turn he uses it, and Odd-Eyes can't attack again now, so his act has ended also, along with me ending my-" Yuya said as he and Odd-Eyes looked to see at the site of the explosion.

There still standing was Alexander and somehow Caesar and Genghis, who had both been destroyed, "What?! But how are they still here?" Yuya yelled out. "How are they back we saw Odd-Eyes destroy all three, didn't we?" Tatsuya asked.

"By using one of Caesar's Overlay Units before it was destroyed, Caesar can resurrect all monsters that were destroyed this turn!" Reiji explained, Caesar's OLU's: 2 – 1 = 1. "So Caesar can resurrect any and all monsters destroyed!" Yuya repeated to himself.

"THAT'S BULLSH*T!" Odd-Eyes roared out, with Azara blushing at hearing this, "Such language..." Azara thought, "Wait, an effect like that must have a payment like your Dark Contracts!" Yuya suddenly said.

"Clever, you see by using this effect, I shall receive 1000 damage per monster resurrected by this effect during my standby phase this turn coming!" Reiji explained the bad side to the effect's usage. "So he'll take 3000 damage on his turn." Tatsuya said.

"And since he already took damage, if he takes this damage, Yuya will win!" Futoshi shouted out in happiness, "Wrong! Reiji wouldn't have used the effect if he knew he would take more damage for it." Sora said.

"He's right children, as I now activate the Trap, D/D/D Human Resources!" the card flipped upwards, "By returning 3 D/D monsters back into my Deck or Extra Deck, which will be Genghis, Alexander and Caesar..." Reiji said as the three kings vanished back into Reiji's Extra Deck.

"I can add 2 D/D monsters to my Hand, along with avoiding the payment for my next turn." he added as two cards were ejected from his Deck, with him taking them into his Hand. "Knew it would be too easy for you to do something like that, I end my turn with a face-down, and now that its finished Odd-Eyes's ATK returns to normal!" Yuya said as a card appeared then faded. 2700 = 2500. (Odd-Eyes)

Yuya's Hand x 0

Turn 5

"This Duel has been amazing Reiji! Just like my Duel against Matthew, you've kept me in the dark and it's exciting, even Odd-Eyes is having fun." Yuya said as Odd-Eyes roared in agreement. "Yes, this Duel also reminds me of my Duels against the brothers, as they were just as enjoyable as this one..." Reiji smiled thinking back to that year, the thrill the brothers gave him during their duels, he still thinks back to them sometimes, Yuya smiled at the compliment.

"Your Pendulum Monsters are amazing… But..." Yuya lost his smile at this, "I wonder how you would feel about being on the receiving end of a Pendulum Monster." he added confusing them all, "I will soon, as DMC is making them right this moment." Yuya said, wondering where Reiji was going with this.

""Well how about I start the attack of Pendulum right now! As you know, I've utilized many methods of Summoning into my Deck, and now I've gotten a hold of yours!" Reiji declared shocking the Brothers and Azara now, "Wait, he can't mean that-" Nigel yelled worried.

"Yes Nigel..." Reiji said drawing his card, then took two cards in his Hand and revealed them, "With the Scale 1 D/D Savant Gelilei and Scale 10 D/D Savant Kelper, I now set the Pendulum Scale!" Reiji said then placed the cards into the respective Zone.

"No way! How can you..." Yuya yelled out as everyone was shocked at what they were seeing, "Pendulum Summon like you, with these cards of course!" Reiji said as Gelilei and Kelper floated in their pillars, reached a height with their numbers appearing under them.

(1) P-E-N-D-U-L-U-M (10)

"I can now Summon monsters from Levels 2 through 9 all at the same time!" he said, "Maybe he's bluffing?" Gongenzaka hoped, "N-N-No… He's not.." Yuzu stuttered out, "Grand power that shakes my very soul, arise within me and become a new light to render the darkness!" he said as the monsters in the Pendulum Zones started to activate.

"Pendulum Summon! Now come before me my monsters!" he shouted as the Pendulum Rift opened with a dark spilling out of the rift, as this was really shocking them all. "Be born my three Level 8 D/D/D Doom King Armageddons!" he said as three identical monsters shaped like giant crystals floated side by side one another

D/D/D Doom King Armageddon: DARK, Level: 8 [Fiend/Pendulum/Effect] ATK/3000 DEF/1000, PS: 4 x3

"I can't believe it, he can Pendulum Summon already, so now he has 4 methods under his belt." Yuya thought as his limbs locked up. "How… How did he get his hands on Pendulum Monsters already?" he asked himself out loud.

"Battle! Doom King number 1 attacks Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Reiji ordered as the first of the three Armageddon's floated forwards to Odd-Eyes, while charging energy in his crystal encased chest sphere. "Yuya!" Yuzu cried out banging on the window, snapping Yuya out of his thoughts.

He quickly looked to his left to see an Action Card, so he rushed and grabbed it, "I activate the Action Spell, Miracle! Now Odd-Eyes can't be destroyed by battle and battle damage is halved!" he said as the energy from Armageddon's attack split, headed straight for Odd-Eyes while a shield appeared in front of Odd-Eyes. 3300 – 250 = 3050. (Yuya)

"You'll need a miracle to survive this, now my second Doom King will attack Odd-Eyes as well!" Reiji said as the second Armageddon released its already charged attack, quickly destroying Odd-Eyes, 3050 – 500 = 2550. (Yuya)

"He destroyed Odd-Eyes!" Futoshi cried out, "At least Yuya can Pendulum Summon him next turn, and make him gain some ATK!" Azara said hoping Yuya survived this turn.

"So it's true, Pendulum Monsters on the field are sent to the Extra Deck face-up instead of the Graveyard..." Reiji muttered as he watched Yuya put Odd-Eyes into the Extra Deck Compartment of his Duel Disk. "Doom King number 3 attacks Ring Fire Magician!" he ordered his third and final Armageddon to attack the Magician.

Yuya was now on the run, "Please let me find another Action Card..." Yuya thought looking around, while Doom King number 3 final released its attack, destroying the Magician and causing an explosion, when it settled, Yuya was still standing but he had serious damage for that attack. 2550 – 1700 = 850. (Yuya)

"Yuya is now in trouble, now having less than 1000 LP..." Matthew said, "Yuya..." Yuzu got out worried, "Okay that's it! How did you learn to Pendulum Summon? Only I have… Had Pendulum monsters, so how did you get a hold of them? Did you steal from DMC?" Yuya questioned angrily.

"I don't have to answer that Yuya, I place a card face-down and end my turn!" Reiji retorted as a card appeared then faded.

Reiji's Hand x 0

Turn 6

"Well done Reiji!" Himika clapped for her son, "Now that we have Pendulum Summoning, You Show is finished!" she said, "Will you shut up you Hag! Yuya can throw his opinion involving the Pendulum Summon, once DMC gets word of this, clearly illegal action..." he waved to the Pendulum Monsters Reiji summoned, "Your likely to never teach Pendulum Summoning" he declared while all she did was glare at his direction. "How dare he say such… He's right. DMC will surely hear of this..." she quickly thought of what could happen.

"Now just how did he get a hold of Pendulum Monsters? And why was he so willing to break the law of DMC for it, what is he planning?" Shuzo thought then saw that Yuya freaking out.

"Now what do I do, I knew more Pendulum Monsters would come about soon, but I didn't have time to think about it, now the only thing I had at the moment is being used against me." Yuya said out loud in worry. "Yuya listen to me, you have to keep fighting, FOR THE SCHOOL!" Shuzo shouted out.

This snapped Yuya out of his trance, "He's right, I can still Duel, and with Odd-Eyes and my monsters by my side, I can still win!" he said as he gripped his Pendant. "Even if he is the third Duelist to Pendulum-" Suddenly a thought occurred to him, "Wait a minute!" Yuya yelled.

"Were you the one who set Sawatari up to steal my Pendulum Monsters!" he declared, making everyone look up at Reiji at the accusation, "For the last time, there is no proof of that Duel happening!" Himika declared out of anger.

"Hold up! Yuya said that Sawatari stole the cards, he never said anything about a Duel!" Shuzo pointed out, shocking Himika, who quickly thought of something to cover up her little slip. "No, I didn't, however I watched his Duel against you after he took them." Reiji lied while changing the subject slightly. "Nevermind that, what's important is our school's fate!" Yuya said placing his finger onto his Deck, "This card will decided what happens!" he thought drawing the card and then smiled at what he saw.

"I now Pendulum Summon Odd-Eyes in Attack and Fire Ring in Defense from the Extra Deck!" he said as the monsters were summoned from his Extra Deck, while Reiji got ready for what happened next.

"Odd-Eyes's effect now activates! When Pendulum Summoned from the Extra Deck, 1 Special Summoned monsters you control loses 100 ATK times the Levels that can be Pendulum Summoned with my Scales!" he said as Odd-Eyes released a blue pulse at the Doom King in the centre of them. Doom King 2's ATK: 3000 – 600 = 2400.

"And then Odd-Eyes gains that lost ATK until the end of the turn!" he added as Odd-Eyes felt a surge in power, 2500 + 600 = 3100. (Odd-Eyes) "What an amazing dragon..." Reiji thought, "Now Odd-Eyes can deal 1400 damage exactly with his effect!" Azara cheered, while the brothers still frowned.

Reiji quickly sprang into action, "Continious Trap activate, Dark Contract of Profits!" he said as his face down flipped up, with its image having two monsters shake hands, with two bags of what could be gold coins, being held in their other hands, one bigger than the other.

"During my standby phase I have to tribute a D/D monster or take 1000 damage, however during either player's turn, and a monster you control gains ATK, I can target 1 D/D monster I control and gain LP equal to that monsters original ATK!" he said frustrating Yuya. "I pick my middle Doom King!" he said, 1400 + 3000 = 4400. (Reiji) "Great, now he's better off than he was before." Oliver groaned out, "So he was ready for Odd-Eyes as well." Azara said.

"It's fine still, as Odd-Eyes's first and second effect will get rid of that amount, and with Fire Ring's effect should he survive somehow, he can attack another Armageddon and deal even damage again getting rid of his last remaining LP!" Yuya thought as he saw the scenario play out in his head.

"And should he survive that, my Trap will keep Odd-Eyes the top boss as long as its on the field." he added looking to his face-down on his Duel Disk's screen. "Battle! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon attacks Doom King number 2!" he said as Odd-Eyes charged for the second Doom King.

"Spiral Strike Burst!" he said as the blast Odd-Eyes was charging hit it mark at the monster, "And like we rehearsed, Odd-Eyes's effect will deal you double the damage!" he said, 4400 – 1400 = 3000. (Reiji)

"And now I activate-" Yuya went to say, "Both remaining Doom King's effects activate!" Reiji shouted over Yuya, "When a monster I control leaves the field, these two gain ATK equal to that monsters original ATK until the end of the turn!" he said shocking them all as the remaining two monsters absorbed the darkness that came from their third destroyed copy. 3000 + 3000 = 3000. (Armageddon 1 & 3)

"6-6000 ATK!" Yuya yelled, clearly not expecting this to occur, but then, "Odd-Eyes second effect will-" Yuya went to say, "I should also mention that once per turn, Doom King cannot be destroyed by a card effect you activate!" he added as he knew what Yuya was going to do, stopping him from doing anything else.

"That Doom King is basically built with Odd-Eyes in mind!" Yuzu said. "Damn it, I end my turn with a face-down, with it ending, both Odd-Eyes's and the Doom King's ATK return normal… But I activate my Trap, Power Lock!" he quickly said activating his face down from before, which had an image of a power source with chains covering it.

"I equip this card onto Odd-Eyes whose ATK is higher than his original, and as long as this card is equipped to Odd-Eyes, his new ATK is treated as his original ATK!" he said as while the Doom King's ATK returned to normal, Odd-Eyes kept his ATK at 3100. 6000 = 3000 (Armageddon 1 & 3)

"At least Odd-Eyes is still stronger by a bit..." Gongenzaka said with a hopeful tone, "But how long will that last?" Yuzu asked.

Yuya's Hand x 0


With Shun...

Turn 4

"Surrender..." Shun softly said, but one could hear the aggression behind it, "I can't surrender… NOT UNTIL I TAKE DOWN ALL YOU FUSION SCUM!" he shouted out while drawing his card with anger. This outburst from him made Marco and his partner flinch.

"I activate the effect of Raidraptor Stealth Lanius in my Hand!" Shun said as he then revealed the only card in his Hand, "I target 1 monster you control and reveal this card, and negate the effects of that monster!" he said to them.

"I negate the effects of your Warrior from Another Planet!" he said, as then the Fusion Monster suddenly knelt down in fatigue, dulling in colour. "And now I Normal Summon Raidraptor Stealth Lanius!" he added, as a small Lanius black in colour, it had two wings that were fitted with hover pads that made no noise at all. Like Vanishing Lanius, it had a single eye, it gave a screech as it fully appeared.

Raidraptor - Stealth Lanius: DARK, Level: 4 [Winged Beast/Effect] ATK/1000 DEF/1600

"Now he has 3 Level 4 monsters!" Marco's partner yelled, shaking in fear of the monster that was about to come.

"Now using my two Level 4 Vanishing Lanius and Stealth Lanius, I build the Overlay Network!" Shun said as the monsters turned into three beams on energy, that entered the galaxy spiral when then descended, with a light then escaping.

"Obscured Falcon, raise your claws sharpen by adversity, and spread your wings of rebellion!" he chanted as six red lights glowed from within a thundercloud. "Xyz Summon!" he said, taking the card from his Extra Deck, and placing it onto the blade over its material. "Come forth, Rank 4! Raidraptor Rise Falcon!" he shouted.

And on the field, a bigger Raidraptor monster appeared, with two sets of wings with what appeared to be exhaust pipes for feathers, two clawed feet with a set of very sharp talons, it had two very small, very thin arms on its torso. On its head above its beak were six glowing red lights for eyes. It gave s screech as it appeared fully with 3 purple Overlay Units orbiting it.

Raidraptor - Rise Falcon: DARK, Rank: 4 [Winged Beast/Xyz/Effect] ATK/100 DEF/2000, OLUs: 3


At LDS's control room, a warning was going off, as the system had detected a powerful Xyz Summon happening within the city, "Someone contact Nakajima!" one of the employers ordered to the others, while others were trying to location the exact location.


"100 ATK?..." Marco's partner whispered out, before suddenly bursting into hysterical laughter, "Oh my god, this is the Xyz Duelist that's been getting rid of all of us, what a joke!" he added still laughing. Marco was also chuckling at this monster.

"He's right you know, that monster can't attack our monsters, so again why don't you..." Marco said, "Let's see if you'll laugh after I'm done!" Shun yelled, making them go quiet. "I activate Rise Falcon's effect!" he said Rise Falcon absorbed an Overlay Unit. Rise Falcon's OLU's: 3 – 1 = 2.

"By using an Overlay Unit, Rise Falcon can gain the ATK of all Special Summoned monster you control until the end of the turn!" he said as two lights from Vermillion Dragon Mech and the Warrior from Another Planet were absorbed into Rise Falcon, who was then cover in fire that took a similar shape to the Raidraptor. Rise Falcon's ATK: 100 + 2350 + 2700 = 5150.

"Its over 5000!" Marco's partner screamed out, now in complete fear, while Marco was a bit calmer then his partner, "Well done my friend, you manage to increase your weak monster into the strongest monster on the field..." Marco said.

"But seeing that you can only attack one of our monsters a turn, and we'll both survive this if either one of us is attacked, one of us will still have a monster to attack you on our next turn, so again why don't you-" he went on to say, "Who said there would be a next turn! I activate the Trap, Raidraptor Double Falcon Strike!" Shun said as his face down flipped up, with an image of Rise Falcon ready to strike.

"Until the end of this turn, Rise Falcon can deal double battle damage to you!" he shouted at the end of his explanation, with this now scaring Marco. "Double the battle damage! We're doomed!" Marco's partner screamed again.

"But still, you can only take out-" Marco went to say, "Rise Falcon can attack all Special Summoned monsters you control once each!" Shun added, shocking Marco. "Battle! Raidraptor Rise Falcon attack them all!" he shouted as Rise Falcon soared into the air.

It was still a lit with fire, with it flying around until it descended "Brave Claw Revolution!" it was very quick to take out the two monsters, that it soared passed them before they exploded as Rise Falcon was way out of reach. Marco's LP: 4000 – 5600 = 0, Marco's Partner's LP: 4000 – 4900 = 0.

Shun: WINS

Marco & LDS Employee: LOSE

When the explosions had it the respective owner of the destroyed monsters, they were thrown of their feet and hit the wall way at the back, we're they remained still for a minute as Shun put his cards away, while their cards were scattered about the floor.

Marco was barely conscious, but the slight noise of footsteps stirred him awake, just long to see Shun standing over his partner's still form. What can next shocked him awake, as from Shun's Duel Disk came a eerie purple light that covered the downed Duellist, who then vanished.

"The rumours are true, he can turn people into cards..." Marco thought now petrified, "Then that means..." he added, as he failed to see Shun now standing above him, "Wait! Don't do this!" he yelled out at Shun, "Like you wouldn't do this to me..." was all Shun said as Marco's vision was covered in a purple light.


With Nakajima in the limousine, his phone was ringing, so he answered, "Hello?" he said, with the person on the other line explaining what had happened, shocking him, "Are you absolutely sure?" he quickly asked, a few minutes later of getting the full story, Nakajima rushed out of the Limousine, "The chairwoman and Reiji need to hear of this…" he thought rushing into You Show.


Turn 7

"It's my turn!" Reiji said drawing his card, "As per the agreement of my Dark Contract of Profits, I tribute a D/D monster which will be my second Doom King!" he said as the second identical monster lefted the field, "Now my remaining Doom King's effect will-" he began.

But above him in his Pendulum Zones, both D/D Savant monsters were sparking with energy, while the monsters themselves were shaking and the contraptions apart of them were going crazy, on Reiji's blade of his Duel Disk, the cards for the Savant monsters were also acting up as they were covered with green pixels were the scales on the cards were glowing.

Then the energy from the Savant monsters spread to the last Doom King, while the Scales underneath the Savant monsters were randomly changing until they landed on 2 and 5. "What's happening!?" Reiji gasped aloud in shock and confusion, the energy suddenly stopped as the last Doom King burst into particles much to the confusion of everyone else.

"Huh? Where did they go?" Ayu asked, "Maybe Reiji hasn't fully mastered Pendulum Summoning yet, that could explain why his Scales have changed." Sora said to her.

"So now he can only summon monsters Levels 3 or 4!" Matthew said now excited for Yuya's chances, "Is this my chance to win this?" Yuya said to himself, "At least his Armageddon's are all in the Extra Deck with no way of being summoned now..." he thought.

"It appears these Pendulum Monster aren't ready yet like I thought they were." Reiji thought, "There is still work needed before they-" he added, then looked down at his single card in his hand, "That's it!" he realised.

While Yuya still in thought of what happened, Reiji gave a laugh, snapping him out of his thoughts, "Amazing, I never realised that Pendulum Summoning was this complexed, and how much it can offer to Dueling!" Reiji said holding his hand over his face.

"What do you mean… Wait, are you talking about Pendulum supporting the others?" Yuya asked, with this catching the brother's attention, "So you're aware of such a thing could be possible... Well, lets see if we're correct! As I'm about to see if this can happen!" Reiji said, "What monster can he bring about with Pendulum Summoning?" Yuya thought as Reiji went to grab the remaining card in his hand.

While this happened, Nakajima having found where they were, was whispering into Himika's ear, "What's this about Professor Marco?" Masumi demanded, having heard what he said, while Himika looked worried.

"We need to tell him this." Himika said looking at her son through the window, while Nakajima contacted Reiji, who was about to play his card, when his Duel Disk signalled that he was receiving a call, he stopped with playing the card, then went to answer, with Nakajima's image appearing.

"What's so important that you needed to interrupt the Duel?" he demanded annoyed, wanting to see if he and Yuya were correct. "An emergency has appeared sir, regarding the Duellist..." Nakajima referenced, "Great… Just when I was about to see if it was possible." he thought.

He then jumped down from his platform, using the floating balls to help his descent, "Huh? Where are you going?" Yuya said jumping off Odd-Eyes, "We shall resume this in the future..." was all his opponent said, "But I wanted to see what you were going to do!" Yuya said back.

Upon hearing this Reiji stopped to look back at him, "Maybe you can figure it out, if not, you shall see when we face off again." Reiji said as then the field started to vanish with Reiji's leaving.

Reiji: LOSE (FORFEITS)

Yuya: WINS (BY DEFAULT)

"Yuya... Won by default..." Matthew got out in shock of what happened, with the other three near him having similar reactions, while the LDS lot also left following Reiji's leave. "But what happened that could cause them to leave like this?" Azara asked to herself and the others.

With Yuya still, he was watching the exact direction of where Reiji walked out, "So long for now… Reiji." he said to himself, while also not happy that he won like this, and that Reiji could somehow Pendulum Summon before the others.

End of Chapter 13


Sorry that this Duel wasn't different like with Hokuto's duel, but I found it hard to think of how to make it different, but at least it played differently somehow with Odd-Eyes's effect and using the card that weren't use in the actual anime (the face downs)

And yes to also make this up to you, and diverse, I added a Duel with Shun against Marco… and his Duelling partner.

OC cards

(Shun)

Raidraptor - Stealth Lanius
DARK, Level: 4 [Winged Beast/Effect] ATK/1000 DEF/1600
Target 1 monster your opponent controls, reveal this card, and if you do, negate the effects of that targeted monster until the end of the turn. If your opponent controls a monster, this card attack your opponent directly.

Raidraptor Double Falcon Strike
Normal Trap
When you control a face up "Raidraptor Rise Falcon" on the field, you can activate this set card. Until the end of the turn this Trap is activated, a "Raidraptor Rise Falcon" you control can deal double battle damage to your opponent(s).

(Reiji)

Dark Contract of Profits
Continious Trap
During either player's turn, when your opponent's monster gains ATK, target 1 D/D monster you control, gain Life Points equal to that monsters original ATK. Once per turn, during your standby phase, tribute a "D/D" monster you control, or take 1000 Damage.

D/D/D Doom King Armageddon (Modified)
DARK, Level: 8 [Fiend/Pendulum/Effect] ATK/3000 DEF/1000, PS: 4
Pendulum Effect: Once per turn, you can target 1 "D/D" monster you control, it gains 800 ATK until the end of the turn. (Even if this card leaves the field)

Once per turn during either player's turn, if another monster(s) you control leaves the field: You can target 1 of those monsters, this card gains ATK equal to that monster's original ATK until the end of the turn. This card cannot attack your opponent directly the turn this effect is activated. Once per turn, this card cannot be destroyed by a card effect your opponent activates. (this is a Quick effect)

I changed its effect as Yuya could have used Odd-Eyes new second effect to target and destroy a Doom King, making Reiji lose.

(Yuya)

Power Lock
Normal Trap
You can activate this card during the end phase of your turn while you control a monster whose ATK is higher than its original ATK. When this card is activated, equip this card to a monster whose ATK is higher than its original ATK, as long as this card is equipped to that monster, that monster's current ATK is treated as its original ATK. During each of your end phases, send 1 card in your Hand to the Graveyard, or destroy this equipped card.
