Time to answer the reviews:
Yacristo: Good to hear that you enjoyed the interactions. Yeah, they really don't deserve those cool dragons. About the XYZ summoning though…well you are gonna see soon enough.
rgriffin8999: To answer your question, yes. I am planning on a Vrains rewrite by the name of "Bring the Heat, Soulburner!". Just need a Salamangreat deck.
TheyWhoAreNone: Zane vs Yusuke was an idea I really wanted to do, so I chose that. Wanted to make Camula more of a fleshed out character and also yeah, good for her. That poor lucky bastard getting a tiger girlfriend by beating her in a card game. Yusuke wasn't a character I cared about, but the more I thought about him, the more I wanted to write about him. Yeah, I decided to make my own roster with characters from other series since I thought it is an interesting idea.
Kite Tenjo was usually a very quiet kid when he was growing up. When the other kids were playing outside, he was inside playing with his toys. When the kids were eating together, he was eating alone. When the kids tried talking when they were supposed to sleep, he slept.
He was also a very unusual kid growing up. He used to only talk to his cards, more specifically towards Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, and his 'evolved states' and 'cousin' even though they are just an XYZ monster, both the evolved states and cousin.
The only time he would ever socialize with other children is when they are playing Duel Monsters, and while his deck does consist with 3 archetypes, he was considered to be the best in the playground, with his Ace monster being the reason why so many duels won in his favour with its Battle Phase and Attack boosting effects, with even utilizing Fusion and Ritual monsters in his deck.
But that didn't mean he wasn't smart. Far from it. He was a genius in fact.
In just when he was a kid, he was able to pinpoint the exact misplays from even the best Pro Duelists out there, and when he was 7, he was able to build two robots that were named 'Orbital 7' and 'Lillybot'.
Lillybot was used as a maid-robot that cleaned out his room and even the entire house on several occasions when either he or his entire family weren't home. Orbital 7, however, was his go-to robot, with him using him as either a jet-pack so he could fly around Heartland City, make food, drinks and buy him some new cards.
It wasn't like they hated it, in fact they loved serving him and even calling him 'Master Kite'.
It honestly freaked Dr. Faker, his wife and their good friend, Mr. Heartland on how much of a genius Kite was at only 7 years old, but not as scared as how he would react…
…getting a little brother.
At first, he was annoyed that all his free time and being alone was going to be ruined when his little brother was born, which was the reaction that they knew would happen since even towards them he was cold, but how he reacted during the day was completely unexpected.
After the delivery, Kite, with Lillybot and Orbital 7 going along, was allowed to see his little brother and even hold him. He rolled his eyes over as he walked towards his mother and stepped on a chair and looked at him, his eyes softening as he looked at him.
He had light blue hair, a head so tiny he could fit in the palm of his hand, fingers so small that his fingers made his look like they were from frogs, his entire body was the same size as a jug of milk.
He held him in his hands and sat down, stroking the hair of his little brother with the most gentle face anyone has seen of him and eyes that were both gentle and protective as they were saying, "I will always protect you." which put a smile on Mrs. Tenjo.
Over the past years of Kite, and his little brother, he was, to say shortly, extremely protective. Like baby proofing everything in the house, making every toy isn't sharp and aren't possible to choke on, making rails on anything, not letting anyone, even his parents, in the room.
He let Lillybot clean his room and Orbital 7 to change Hart on every waking day possible. Those were the only ones that he even remotely let anyone in.
The days that Hart was sick were the worst days of his entire life. He would try to fix it and even hissing at the doctors that even dared to touch his little brother. He would make the soup, even when his mother says that he will do it for him, but he just refuses to do that.
During his years, his love for his younger brother grew bigger and bigger to the point Dr. Faker was scared for any child to be anywhere near his youngest son.
Hart while growing up was the nicest person that anyone could ever meet. He was a caring, easy-going, happy, cheerful person to be around, but he was quickly getting tired of how overprotective his older brother was.
He loved him, of course, but it was getting tiring that whenever he was around anyone, he would just glare at the person that he was talking to, enough to make him back away, to the point that he went into his rebellious phase when he was 7.
You know the usual, trying to show that he wasn't weak by challenging his older brother to a fight and a duel, which he got destroyed in 5 minutes each, trying to curse, which resulted in Mrs. Tenjo used soap like any parent would, and tried breaking stuff, which Lillybot cleaned in a couple of seconds.
After a week of it, he finally stopped being in his rebellious phase. Which made Kite slightly less overprotective after it.
But then, sadly, around when Hart was 10 years old, he felt sick to the point of not even going out of bed. He coughed blood, his eyes were red, his skin was hot as a stove, he could barely breathe, his arms and legs were heavier than stones and the worst part of it all, it wasn't curable.
That destroyed Kite.
His baby brother.
The person he loved the most.
The person he swore to protect.
He couldn't think straight. He couldn't think about anything other than him. All of the times that he had with him. Every duel. Every time they went to get something to eat. Every time they went to watch a movie.
Every moment that he had with his little brother was flashing in his eyes.
The only thing that he could do was going out for a walk to take his mind off things and not think about the doom of his little brother.
He was at a store where they sold TV, CD disks, movie posters and more. Kite remembered all of the times he and his brother went in to buy the movie they loved the most watching the most in movie theaters. And suddenly he saw a silhouette of an old man on all of the TVs.
"Hello, Kite Tenjo." said the man on the TVs.
Kite's eyes widened as he glared, "How do you know my name?" he asked.
"How I know your name is none of your concern, Tenjo, but what I am about to tell you is going to help you and your sick brother."
"You put Hart away from this! You've got that!" spat out Kite, ignoring the looks of the people looking at him.
"You don't have to be so brash, I do have a cure for your brother's sickness if you allow me to continue explaining everything to you."
Kite stopped when he heard the words cure for his brother's sickness, "You do?"
"I do in fact have one, and if you want it, you have to listen to everything that I have to say, understand?" Kite nodded as fast as he could, "Good. Now listen, closely. I have been doing research on different dimensions and from what I have gathered is that while they do have powerful duelists in them, they are still weaker than that of the average school kid, but there are some exceptions."
"You, you are one of the few exceptions. Your skills, with the added bonus of an added summoning method, are almost unrivaled. So, let's make a deal. You become a Shadow Rider, you duel the Key Keepers holding these Spirit Keys and release the Sacred Beasts, and if you do, I will give the cure to your family so your little brother will live. What do you say, Kite Tenjo?"
Kite thought about the options, while it doesn't sound like it would be a fantastic idea of joining him since he only knew him for about few minutes, tops, but there is one up side that couldn't be ignored.
His little brother's safety.
He breathed in and out as he looked at the TVs, "I acce-
"Hey!" Kite was snapped out of his memories of joining the Shadow Riders by the voice of Chazz, the Key Keeper he was dueling, and the one that most resembled his little brother, "I thought we were in the middle of a duel here, so make your move!"
"That's right! We were starting the duel, and I just blanked out for a minute." he shook his head, "My apologies, I zoned out for a little bit." he said.
"Okay, fine! But make your move, damn it!" yelled Chazz as Kite placed his fingers on his deck as he drew his first card.
"Fine! I will!" he flipped the card that he just drew and nodded as he placed the card into his hand. He looked through his hand and his eyes widened as he saw his 3 Cipher Wings. He could summon one of his strongest monsters if he did that strategy, but at the same time he wanted to hold back just a little bit during the duel.
So he went with a different strategy, he took one of his cards, "I'll start by activating Photon Veil! I have to shuffle 3 Light monsters from my hand to my deck," he did so with his deck as it then shuffled itself automatically, "And then I get to add 1 to 3 Level 4 or lower Light monsters from my deck, but if I add more than 1, then they have to have the same name." explained Kite as three cards popped out of his deck.
"So, in short, he decided to change up his hand for a new one." said Zane as he crossed his arms together.
"Yes, that might be, but I don't understand why he would. He only added 3 of the same monsters from his deck," Bastion placed his hand under his chin.
"Maybe because he is planning something?" said Celina as the rest stayed quiet watching the duel.
"The card I added was my trusty Daybreaker, or should I say, Daybreakers, because I activate my Quick-Play Spell card, Photon Lead!" Kite yelled as a card materialized in front of him, "This card allows me to special summon a Level 4 or lower Light monster from my hand, so I want you to welcome Daybreaker!"
From the stars in the galaxy, a warrior has dropped down kneeling before his master. It then turned around and showed himself to everyone. It was a knight in a tight white iron suit with a green orb in the middle, a red flowing cape and a massive katana.
(Daybreaker: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1700. Defense: 0.)
"Why didn't you just normal summon it in attack position? That was pointless." said Chazz as he saw Kite smirk.
"Because, when my Daybreaker is special summoned, I get to special summon a Daybreaker from my hand!" Chazz's eyes widened, "So why don't you give a warm welcome to my second copy of Daybreaker!"
From the stars of the sky, Daybreaker landed on its knees and then it stood up.
(Daybreaker: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1700. Defense: 0.)
"And you know what they say, third times the charm! I activate Daybreaker's effect!" Kite took a card from his hand and then slammed it on his D-pad, "I summon my third and final copy of Daybreaker!"
Just like his brothers before him, he crashed down from the stars kneeling and then standing up.
(Daybreaker: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1700. Defense: 0.)
And it was the time to realize why Dennis wanted to warn everyone about him. He just summoned 3 monsters without either Fusion summoning or normal summoning at all, and looked like he was still not done with his turn.
Kite usually would use his monsters to make an even bigger monster from them, but something in him was telling him not to do that, at least until later when he wants to finish a duel as fast as possible. He looked over at these 3 monsters, which was great as both an offensive tactic and a defensive tactic.
He sighed as he looked over at Chazz, "That's it for my turn. You can go ahead." That shocked everyone.
"Well that was surprising." commented Alexis.
"Yeah, from the cool aura I can sense from him, it looked like it was only the beginning of the turn." Jaden tilted his head in confusion, "I wonder why?"
Turn 2. Chazz - 4000 lp - 5 cards
While he was confused on his opponent's turn, he shook his head as he drew his card. He looked over and smirked, "So, you think having 3 1700 attack point monsters on your side of the field will make me scared? Well guess, what!? You're wrong, I summon X - Head Cannon!"
Chazz slammed his card on his duel disk as a machine with two cannons on his back, red glowing eyes and a spikeball on the bottom with a yellow and blue colouring scheme appeared onto the field.
(X - Head Cannon: Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1800. Defense: 1500.)
"And that's not it!" Chazz then took out one of his cards from his hand, "Go, Quick Summon! This card allows me to normal summon a monster from my hand! So appear, A - Assault Core!"
On the left side from X - Head Cannon appeared a mechanical scorpion-like beast of which the tail were shot beams with a yellow colouring scheme with a red tint on its legs.
(A - Assault Core: Level 4 - Union - Light Machine - Attack: 1900. Defense: 200.)
"So you summoned 2 monsters that are stronger than my Daybreakers in a 2 card combo," Commented Kite as he nodded his head, "Not bad." He complimented him. Sure if he knew that summoning method this would be a much tougher battle and a lot more impressive, but it still is impressive nonetheless.
"Not bad? Well let's see how you react to this! My X - Head Cannon and A - Assault Core will attack your Daybreakers with Unionized Shots!" yelled out Chazz.
From the cannons all of his monsters were charged up with a blue energy that was as bright as a star, and then after a second later, it shot towards the two Daybreakers, making a small explosion which some of the Key Keepers had to cover their eyes.
Kite, however? Didn't even flinch despite losing two of his monsters.
Kite: 4000 - 3800 - 3700 life points
Chazz: 4000 lp
Kite remained still as he looked at Chazz, "Is that all? Or is it my turn?"
Chazz gritted his teeth, despite doing that impressive combo, it felt like that didn't even put a dent to the Photon Rider, like that wasn't nothing towards him and his combos are going to get much much tougher and scarier.
He looked at his hand, and he only had monsters with 1 Equip Spell in it that didn't help him with the turn. He sighed, "Yes, it is your turn."
Turn 3. Kite - 3700 lp - 1 card
Kite nodded as he drew his card and flipped it. He glanced at it, and his eyes slightly widened at the looks of it. could help him with summoning his strongest monster on the field. He heard his dragon whining, he shook his head, "No, you said that I need to hold back, and now you are regretting it?"
His dragon left out a growl, "You changed your mind? As usual." he shook his head as he knew Galaxy-Eyes was right with it. he could summon his monster, use them both and destroy both of his monsters in one turn and destroy him on his next turn.
But something in him was telling him not to summon it, not towards him. He sighed as he looked at his hand.
He took the card he just drew, "I set one monster in defense position," a card materialized horizontally beside the Daybreaker, as the Photon Rider pointed at him, "And I will switch him in defense position." his Daybreaker was then switched in an X position.
"I end my turn there." he said as everyone, even Chazz, looked at him shocked at how long that took him.
"What's with this guy?" questioned Celina, "First it happened when he summoned his 3 Daybreakers and then it happened again with that turn."
"I understand where you are coming from, it doesn't make any logical sense at all." Bastion rubbed his chin.
"I think…" Everyone turned to Zane, "I think he is holding himself back."
Turn 4. Chazz - 4000 lp - 3 cards
"Say what?!" Chazz couldn't believe this! With that dramatic entrance, with that cocky attitude, that whistle which he will never not think about, and then they start dueling, and he wasn't even taking it seriously?!
Was he trying to lose!?
"Are you holding back on me?" asked Chazz in anger in his voice as Kite turned around, not daring to look him in the eyes, which without saying anything, answered his question, "You are."
"It's hard to explain i-"
"Shut it! I can't believe you! You made all of this, time freezing, whistling, walking like a guy from a horror movie and challenging all of us, and you aren't even taking this seriously?!" Chazz yelled as Kite didn't flinch, but was still hurt by those words, "Well you know what?! I am going to tell you that if you don't stop holding yourself back right now, you will lose! Understand?!"
Kite sighed as he looked at Chazz, dead in the eyes, "Fine, but don't start complaining when my turn begins."
Chazz grinned like a madman as he drew his card from his deck, "That's what I wanted to hear!" His grin grew bigger as he then slammed a card onto his duel disk, "I now summon my Don Zaloog in attack position!"
Onto the left of A - Assault Core, a man with long purple hair, an eyepatch over his right eye which were gray, wearing red gauntlets on each of his hands, a brown sleeveless vest with bullets all over his vest, with having a tattoo on his right arm, wearing 2 pistols, wore combat boots and brown pants.
"Alright, Boss! I can't wait to defeat him!" yelled Don Zaloog, cheerfully, as he saw Chazz giving him a nod knowing that he fully agrees with him.
(Don Zaloog: Level 4 - Dark Warrior - Attack: 1400. Defense: 1500.)
Kite soon knew what he was about to do, attacking with his weakest monsters first, and then directly attacking him with A - Assault Core, but he knew that wouldn't work on him quite as nicely as he wanted to.
"Decent offense with your monsters, but I will tell you that won't be enough for you to defeat me." said Kite as Chazz smirked.
"Really? Well let's test that by my X - Head Cannon attacking that face down with Union Shoot!" yelled Chazz as on the cannons on X - Head Cannon appeared a blue energy, it was quickly shot at Kite's set monster, which revealed himself to be a Spellcaster wearing tight blue clothing and a white cape, which it exploded.
Kite picked it up from his D-pad and revealed it to everyone, "The card you destroyed was my Galaxy Mirror Sage, and when it is flipped face up, I gain 800 life points."
Kite: 3700 - 4500 life points
Chazz: 4000 lp
He heard Chazz curse under his breath, but he knew that he wasn't done. "And then I activate my Galaxy Mirror Sage's second effect. When it is destroyed, I can set right back at my field, but it is banished once it leaves the field if I activate his effect!" He then placed the card back on his D-pad and a card materialized horizontally.
Chazz gripped his hand as Alexis commented, "That's actually a very good defense. Using his monster's effect like that, makes Chazz unable to deal damage during this turn."
Bastion nodded, "And don't forget Galaxy Mirror Sage's effect of gaining life points when flipped which would make it a detriment to Chazz's combos."
"Fine! My A - Assault Core will destroy your Daybreaker with Union Poison Shot!" From the claws of the Light Union Machine, blue energy appeared from it and it was shot towards the defense position Daybreaker.
And now it was Don Zaloog's time to attack, so what will he do right now? Attack Galaxy Mirror Sage, and make him gain 800 life points and making his combo to decrease his opponent's life points useless? Or will he end his turn, making The Photon Rider draw a card, flip over his Sage and gain 800 life points with the added bonus of a normal summon?
So what option did he choose?
He chose option C: Attack directly.
He took out a card from his hand, "How about I deal you some direct damage with this Spell, Dark Scorpion Leader's Surprise! This card allows my Don Zaloog to attack you directly, twice! So let him have it! Don Zaloog attack with Quadruple Blast Attack!" yelled Chazz as Don Zaloog nodded.
"You got it Boss!" yelled Don Zaloog as it ran towards Kite, skipping Galaxy Mirror Sage, and with his two pistols shot at him twice with each of them, making the Photon Rider walk backwards a bit.
Kite: 4500 - 3100 - 1700 life points
Chazz: 4000 lp
Jaden clapped his hands, "Yeah! Chazz just dropped his life points less than half!"
"Don't forget the fact that he skipped over Kite's set card." added Celina.
Chazz then pointed out, "And when my monster deals you damage, I have two options to pick from and how about I choose both of them at the same time!? You first have to send the top 2 cards from your deck to your graveyard."
Kite nodded as he picked up two cards from his deck and sent them to his graveyard as Chazz continued, "And then You have to discard one card from your hand, and unfortunately for you, you only have 1 card!" Kite picked it up and placed it in his graveyard.
"Now you have no cards in your hand!" yelled Chazz as Kite smirked.
"Is that so?" he asked as he placed his fingers on his deck, "The card you sent to my graveyard was my Card Of Compensation which allows me to draw 2 cards if it is sent to the graveyard." he did so.
Bastion gripped his hand tightly, "He just turned a disadvantage into an advantage. Marvelous."
"Damn it," Chazz cursed as he looked at his hand and only saw the only move he could make, "I end my turn there. And you better not hold back!"
Turn 5. Kite - 1700 lp - 2 cards
And now it was the Photon Rider's turn, and everyone could feel that the energy of the duel changed, almost like the real duel had begun. Everyone anticipated his every move as he drew his card.
He placed the card he drew and took one of them, "I play a card that all of you might know, Polymerization!" The Key Keepers were taken aback at the normal move, sure that is a great move, but not enough to hold anything back on.
He took the two cards left in his hand, "I fuse from my hand my two copies of Photon Lizard!" two lizards whose skin were that of the entire space and red armoured-like appeared onto the field, only for them to be sucked into a Red-Blue Spiral Vortex.
Kite then began to chant, "Two lizards forced to survive in the wild of space and time, combine to create a beast strong enough for survival! I Fusion Summon! Twin Photon Lizard!" From the vortex came out a dragon with red skin on the front and on the yellow side of the body and head, and on the left side was yellow coloured, not to mention it had a light blue tail on the back that was bigger than the average adult.
(Twin Photon Lizard: Fusion - Level 6 - Light Dragon - Attack: 2400. Defense: 1000.)
"That's what I am talking about! Bring those dragons towards me!" grinned Chazz as some were impressed at the simple turn and move.
"Simple, but effective." Zane nodded at the monster, but he saw Kite smirk, which meant one thing, he wasn't done.
"While yes, this is an impressive monster, there is one thing that brings it down." Most of the Key Keepers looked at the Photon Rider with confusion, "It is nothing compared to my Galaxy-Eyes, so I think I will sacrifice it!"
"Wait what?! Why would you sacrifice your own monster that is the strongest on the field?" Asked Alexis as Kite smirked.
"Because, its effect allows me to special summon monsters that were used for its Fusion summoning, so revive, Photon Lizards!" Kite slammed the two lizards on the field as from the ground, they jumped through it, making a small hole on the ground, but then it was quickly covered up.
(Photon Lizard: Level 3 - Light Dragon - Attack: 900. Defense: 1200.) x 2
Some were taken aback at the turn of the events of this turn, but maybe they had effects that boost their attack points when they are summoned. Either that, or they might not have been scared of the Photon Rider based around how he is playing the game.
"Okay? That was a weird turn of events, but I guess they have good effects?" tried to reason Bastion as Kite nodded.
"You're right as now I will activate their effects! I sacrifice both of them," "AGAIN?!" his two Photon Lizards disappeared from the field as from Kite's D-pad, two cards were then slotted out to which he took them, "And then I can add 2 Level 4 or lower Photon monsters from my deck!"
He put them in his hand as Celina breathed out, "Okay, what is your strategy? Sending monsters from your graveyard so you could summon or add more powerful monsters from your deck? Because that's what you are doing."
"My strategy?" Kite looked at her as he returned his gaze on Chazz, "I will reveal my strategy, right this turn. I normal summon Photon Crusher in attack mode!" a warrior whose skin was made out of the space with dark green battle armour appeared onto the field, wearing a mace.
When summoned it swung his weapon all around making Chazz's monsters back down a little bit.
(Photon Crusher: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2000. Defense: 0.)
At long last, he finally was able to summon a monster that is stronger than all of the monsters on his opponent's side of the field, but their worries grew worse when Kite picked up his last card in his hand.
"When I control either a Galaxy or a Photon monster on my side of the field, I get to special summon my Photon Advancer from my hand!" Kite slammed the card on his D-pad.
A warrior wearing a white armour with black hands and a yellow head, with a galaxy-like body appeared onto the field.
(Photon Advancer: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
The fact that Kite was able to summon 5 monsters in one turn, with many different combos, was extremely impressive in their opinion. Sure the only one that could destroy Chazz's monsters is Photon Crusher, but that didn't mean it was any less effective.
But for some reason, Kite remained silent for a minute or two as he then asked a weird question, "What summoning methods do you all have?"
That was an odd question, a question that isn't usually asked, but they answered anyway, "Fusion and Rituals. Why do you ask?"
Again, Kite remained silent for a minute or two as he broke the ice, "So you haven't heard or seen this yet," he mumbled out loud right before yelling at the top of his lungs as he pushed his two hands away from him, "I overlay my two Level 4 Photon Crusher and Advancer!"
He then pushed his hands together as he symbolised that they are being fused together as a galaxy appeared on Kite's feet with the energy that of a raging black hole, but he continued anyway, "With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!"
"Overlay Network?!"
"What is that?!"
"I don't know?!"
"Great Scott!"
Chazz remained silent as he saw Photon Crusher and Advancer being sucked in as they turned into yellow lights, as then the entire mini galaxy exploded.
"Warrior of Light, and a servant of the Galaxy, use our skills and precision to cut your enemies at the Speed of Light! I XYZ Summon! Rank 4! Starliege Lord Galaxion!" From the galaxy that was destroyed seconds ago, a warrior with two large swords with a white armour and tight black pants emerged with two lights going around him.
(Starliege Lord Galaxion: XYZ - Rank 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2000. Defense: 2100.)
All of them stared at horror at Kite's newest monster. "What is that?" asked Jaden, both amazed and somewhat scared.
"That…is an XYZ monster. A type of monster that is not made in this place." Kite looked at everyone's reaction at the new monsters and most of them were the same. Some jaw drops, some widened eyes and some couldn't even move.
He still has one more move left, "That is not all." "There is more?!" Kite pushed his arm forward, "I will use his two Overlay Units so I can activate his ability!" Galaxion's two units were then sucked into the Light Warrior XYZ. "If I use two Overlay Units, I can then special summon a Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon from my deck!"
A spear appeared on Kite's field to which he took it without hesitation and then threw it at the air as he began to chant, "Come my mighty monster! With the savagery of a supernova! Bring on a cosmic cataclysm that vaporizes everything in your path! Come forth, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!"
After the spear was thrown, it made an explosion which then a dragon that looked like it could even rival the Blue-Eyes itself. Parts of it appeared one by one, as the dragon's skin appeared to be the same as the rest of the monsters. It was first the legs and then the arms that were sharper than any blade that could be ever forged. Its bottom half looked tougher than obsidian and the tail was tougher than any weapon. At the end of the tail, some parts of the wings and the nose of the dragon were the most beautiful shade of red ever seen. It roared in enthusiasm as soon it was summoned, making a small smile on Kite's face.
(Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: Level 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
"Holy Ra!"
"Goodness gracious!"
"Jesus Chirst, that makes Blue-Eyes White Dragon look like a children's toy!"
Those were the words of everyone that looked at the Photon Rider, and they soon realized why this would be a difficult duel for Chazz and the rest of them.
"So? Happy that I stopped holding back?" asked Kite as he shook his head, "Nevermind, how about I show you how powerful both of them are! Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon attack his Don Zaloog with Photon Stream Of Destruction while Starliege Lord Galaxion attacks your X - Head Cannon with Light Slash!"
His Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon shot a beam of light towards Don Zaloog, evaporating him on the spot with the monster yelling, "I am sorry, Boss!" and then Galaxion appeared in front of the Light Union monster, and slashing him apart at the Speed Of Light.
Chazz almost fell from the explosion, but he quickly stood up as his life points fell down, fast.
Kite: 1700 lp
Chazz: 4000 - 2500 - 2300 life points
"So happy that I stopped holding back?" asked Kite as Chazz grinned.
"Oh you betcha, I will clobber both of your monsters! You hear me!?" he yelled as Kite sighed.
"I end my turn with that. Your move." said Kite as it was finally Chazz's turn.
Turn 6. Chazz - 2300 lp - 2 cards
Chazz breathed in and out at the attack of the Photon Rider and his turn. The entire turn was like something he has never seen before. Not the Fusion summoning, that is normal, but the XYZ summon and the Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon that rivals the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
When Kite took out the card, he, and the others, saw some differences between it and a regular Fusion monster. It remained in the Extra Deck, but the summoning method is way different, since it doesn't need a Spell card to summon it. The cover was black, not purple. The stars were coloured differently and were on the opposite side of the card.
But if anyone thought that was able to knock down the Chazz, then they are greatly mistaken since he will never lose, not towards him. Not towards anyone.
"Don't think that is enough to knock down the Chazz then you are greatly mistaken! Because I will win this duel! I draw!" he drew his card and looked at it. Sure it didn't help for the turn and combos, but it still is useful for making him stay in the game. He would hold that card in his hand for the rest of the turn.
He placed the card in his hand and then picked up one of them, "I sacrifice my A - Assault Core, so I can bring out one of my favourites, Armed Dragon LV5!" His Light Machine Union monster disappeared, but in its place appeared his black and red dragon, with emerald green eyes, wings that are much smaller than that of the Galaxy-Eyes, but didn't make it look weak, hands that acted like punching gloves and it was covered by spikes, from knees, shoulders, stomach, chin and even the hands.
When summoned it threw punches faster than the Speed Of Sound.
(Armed Dragon LV5: Level 5 - Wind Dragon - Attack: 2400. Defense: 1700.)
"And that's not all!" Chazz picked up a card from his hand, "I will then equip my Armed Dragon with my Equip Spell, Armed Alliance! For every copy of the Armed Dragon that it's equipped to, it gains 800 attack points, including itself!" The Armed Dragon didn't get any special equipment, but it did grow in size to be slightly smaller than Kite's Ace monster.
"Yes! That means it will be stronger than that of Galaxy-Eyes!" cheered Jaden.
"That's right, Slacker!"
Armed Dragon LV5: 2400 - 3200 attack points
Now it was time to think of the monster he would attack. On the one hand, if he attacked Galaxion, he would deal 1200 points of damage, being on only 500 life points, but for some reason it looked like it couldn't use its effect, so then the optimal play would be to attack the biggest threat on the field.
And since it is the biggest thing in play right now, he knew what monster he shall destroy.
"It's time for battle! My Armed Dragon LV5 will attack your Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon! Go, Spiked Spinner!" Armed Dragon LV5 nodded as it ran towards the slightly bigger dragon and then spun his arms all around so he could punch it, but Kite remained silent.
"You think that's going to work? Think again! My Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon's effect activates! During the Battle Step, if it is battling a monster, I can banish it and the monster that it is battling!" Chazz gasped as Photon Dragon shot a beam towards Armed Dragon, making both of them teleport to an unknown location.
Chazz looked in terror as he realized on what just happened. His monster that was the only out to his Galaxy-Eyes was banished and now he was wide open for a direct attack.
He picked up the last card in his hand, but then Kite announced, "When you finish your Battle Phase and I activated my Galaxy-Eyes' effect, both of the banished monsters return to the field!" Both Armed Dragon and Galaxy-Eyes appeared on the field, roaring when summoned.
Now that would have been a good thing, but the sad part of it is that Armed Alliance was sent to the graveyard when Armed Dragon LV5 was banished, so the Wind Dragon was left with only its original attack points.
He took a card, "I end my turn with a facedown." a card was set vertically behind the Armed Dragon LV5.
Turn 7. Kite - 1700 lp - 0 cards
And now it was back to Kite's turn and everyone had a bad feeling about this. He looked at his card and had a smile on his face, which from their past experiences, is a horrible sign of what's to come.
He picked up his set monster, "I flip over my Galaxy Mirror Sage! And you already know his effect when he is flipped up! I gain 800 life points thanks to his ability." his set monster was flipped over as he was surrounded by a blue aura.
(Galaxy Mirror Sage: Level 3 - Light Spellcaster - Attack: 0. Defense: 800.)
Kite: 1700 - 2500 life points
Chazz: 2300 lp
And just like that, Chazz's life point advantage went down the drain as he then picked up his card that he just drew. "Since I can't anymore activate Galaxion's effect, I will sacrifice it and my Galaxy Mirror Sage so I can tribute summon my Photon Caesar!"
His XYZ monster and his Light Spellcaster all disappeared from the field as a warrior made out space wearing a blue and yellow armour, wearing a large sword and a blue shield to cover itself and his master, his cape was purple.
(Photon Caesar: Level 8 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2000. Defense: 2800.)
Kite then grinned as a card was then slotted out of his duel disk, "When my Photon Caesar is summoned onto my field, his effect allows me to special summon a second copy of my Caesar! So go ahead and welcome him!" he took the card from his duel disk as he slammed the card onto his D-pad.
As then, onto the left of the first Photon Caesar, appeared a second copy.
(Photon Caesar: Level 8 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2000. Defense: 2800.)
While most of the Key Keepers looked at the newly summoned monsters, some were confused on why he couldn't activate Galaxion's effect until Jaden, out of everyone, realized it, "Oh, XYZ monsters' overlay units are like ammo in a video game. They have a limited amount that they can use!"
"That's correct, they have the easiest summoning condition, but their effects can only be used depending on its Overlay units, but never mind all of that since I will build the Overlay Network!"
"Aww curd!"
"Not again!"
Kite pushed his arms with open palms, "So I overlay my 2 Level 8 Photon Caesars!" A galaxy appeared on Kite's feet as he combined his two hands as his monsters were sucked into the galaxy, "With these Level 8 monsters, I build the Overlay Network!"
The galaxy exploded and from it came out a spear similar to that of Photon Dragon, but it had more purple, blue and red mixed into the spear. Kite picked it up as he threw it in the air, "Galaxy shining in the darkness, dwell in the demonic god of revenge and become my very servant! I Xyz Summon! Descend, Rank 8! Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon!"
From the skies of the spear, exploded in a huge bright light as all eyes were not on its cousin, but on him. The skin of the dragon was more vibrant than Photon Dragon, with the same colour pathren on the armour like skin that was tougher than most steel. Its knees and neck were blood red, with the wings being rainbow coloured and the upper part of the wings being gold yellow. Its tail was much longer than its cousin. Around him were two yellow overlay units, circling around him.
It flew towards its cousin as they both roared when it was standing proud with their master.
(Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
"My god," Zane placed his hand on his mouth as he then saw the Photon Rider summoning, not one, but two powerful Dragons in only a span of 2 turns. Not only that, but they were all extremely powerful monsters that will give him extreme trouble towards him when he faces him.
"I have to agree, but there is a downside," Everyone looked at Bastion, "If he continues the turn with those monsters and attacks…Chazz will lose."
"What?!" Celina yelled as the rest of Key Keepers did the math in their head, and much to their horror, the Ra Yellow was right.
"Since I want to give you a quick and painless defeat, I will activate my Cipher Dragon's effect. By detaching an overlay unit," Cipher Dragon ate the overlay unit, "I get to target a monster on your side of the field and take control of it! Go, Cipher Projection!"
Cipher Dragon then charged a purple beam from its mouth, and if the effects succeeds, Chazz lost the duel. Cipher Dragon shot the beam towards Chazz and his Armed Dragon LV5, but the Slifer Red had a different idea.
"Not so fast! My Counter Trap activates! Go, Recall!" Chazz's set card was then activated, "When you activate a monster's effect, this card allows me to both negate it and destroy it! Go!"
Kite's eyes widened as he saw Recall shooting a big purple attack on his dragon, destroying it in one turn, with many of the Key Keepers cheering on. "But then, you have to draw a card."
"Thanks." Kite drew his card and his eyes widened even bigger as he saw one of the robots he built in his deck, but he will question it later, "And thanks again when I activate the card that I just drew thanks to your Trap! I equip my Photon Orbital to my Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!" a strange little robot appeared onto the Spell and Trap zone.
Kite then stepped forward as Chazz gritted his teeth to make his effect viable for the second time, "When a monster is equipped by Photon Orbital, the monster equipped gains 500 attack points."
Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: 3000 - 3500 attack points
"Now, I will attack with my Photon Dragon with Photon Stream Of Destruction!" yelled Kite as from the mouths of Photon Dragon, a blue beam was shot towards the smaller dragon in comparison, making Chazz fall to the ground.
Kite: 2500 lp
Chazz: 2300 - 1200 life points
"Chazz!"
"Are you alright!?"
As much as Kite wanted to stop the duel from getting any further, he had to continue on as he took his Photon Orbital from his Spell and Trap zone, "The second effect of my Orbital activates! I send it to my graveyard, and I get to add a Galaxy monster from my deck to my hand."
He sent his monster to the graveyard and from the card that was slotted from the deck he took it. He sighed, "I end my turn."
Turn 8. Chazz - 1200 lp - 0 cards
Jaden began running towards the down Chazz, "Chazz, are you alright!? If you need help just as-" he was stopped when Chazz raised his hand.
"No! I don't need help!" Chazz tried to stand up, but he almost fell on the ground, "When I said I am going to beat him! And I will beat him without any help!" Before he could fall, he placed his hand on the ground, catching himself, "And just because he has a dragon that makes mine look like toys and a brand new summoning method, that doesn't mean I will need any help!" He finally stood up as he glared the Photon Rider and Galaxy-Eyes.
"Because the man that is going to win this duel and destroy that dragon is not other than the CHAZZ!" He pointed towards the sky as he then lowered his hand and duel disk, "Understood?" He breathed out as Jaden nodded with a smile.
"You got it, man. Just don't push yourself too much." He walked off to the stands.
"I don't plan on it." Chazz looked at his hand and placed his fingers on his deck. He closed his eyes and then drew it. He glanced at the card and smirked. "Guess I got lucky, huh? I activate the Spell, Graceful Charity! This card allows me to draw 3 cards!"
Chazz did so as he continued, "And then I have to discard 2 for the price." He looked at the cards he drew. V - Tiger Jet won't really help with his current situation, Magical Mallet is a great card to have, but not a one that is really useful if it is the only card in his hand and then the final one…He grinned.
He took two cards from his hand and sent them to his graveyard, but then a card appeared from the graveyard, "One of the cards I just discarded was a helpful little card known as Ojamagic! When it is sent to my hand to the graveyard, I get to add the three stooges! Or more commonly named Ojama Yellow, Green and Black from my deck straight to my hand!"
He took his deck, took out 3 cards from it and returned it to his duel disk. The three monsters then appeared beside him, "Hey, Boss! Who do you want us to take down?" asked Ojama Yellow.
"I think it's those numbskulls!" Ojama Black pointed towards Kite and his Dragon.
"I think it-" Ojama Green turned around and then his, and the rest for his brothers, gasped as they looked at their boss. "Boss! Please don't summon me to fight that thing!"
"Same with me!" yelled out Black.
"I third that!" agreed Yellow.
"Can it, you three! I have a combo ready! I activate Magical Mallet! This card allows me to select any number of cards in my hand, including itself, and then I can shuffle them and draw the same amount!" said Chazz as he placed his entire hand, shuffling it and then drew 4 cards from his deck.
"Nice! He has a new hand!" cheered Celina.
"And not to mention the fact that he utilized the cards that he just sent to the graveyard, into a way to get more cards in his hand." Bastion nodded.
Chazz looked at his hand and grinned, "Now to start my combo! I activate Enchanting Fitting Room!" red curtains appeared onto the field, "This card allows me to look at the top 4 cards in my deck for the price of 800 life points (LP: 1200 - 400) and if any of them are Level 2 or lower Normal monsters, I get to special summon them!"
He looked at his cards, seeing one Spell and the three Ojamas, he picked them up and returned the Spell in his deck, shuffling it, "The cards I just drew were Ojama Yellow, Black and Green! So appear in defense mode!"
(Ojama Yellow: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
(Ojama Black: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
(Ojama Green: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
Kite's eyes then widened as he remembered the combo that was used against Jagger and Slade, "Those three monsters…"
Chazz grinned, "Oh, you know this combo, right? So let's skip the explanation, and then cut to me activating Ojama Delta Hurricane! Let him have it boys!"
"You've got that Boss!"
"You can count on us!"
"We will get the job done no matter what!"
The three Ojama brothers combined their butts together and then spun around Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, and with enough force, destroyed the Galaxy-Eyes, roaring in agony.
"Yes!"
"Finally that thing is down!"
Chazz's grin disappeared and so did the cheering as they heard…clapping from the Photon Rider. "Congratulations. I have to say, you impress me, Chazz. You managed to destroy my ace monster."
"Of course I did. Nothing stands a chance in the path of The Chazz!" Chazz proudly claimed as Kite smiled.
It reminded him of Hart whenever he was able to accomplish a task that on the surface may look impossible, but in actuality it was possible to defeat. "Yeah…" he shook his head, "But, you have to remember." Every Key Keeper looked at him, "This duel is just getting started."
Chazz smirked, "Yeah it is, and I can't wait to crush you. I end my turn with that."
Turn 9. Kite - 2500 lp - 1 card
"Crush me? Nice try, but that won't be happening! I draw!" yelled Kite as he drew his card and glanced at it. He placed the card in his hand for later. He then took the other card in his hand, "I will start by summoning Galaxy Cleric in attack mode."
A spellcaster wearing a long yellow rod with metallic arms and white and dark red robes, with a metallic mask on its face appeared on to the field.
(Galaxy Cleric: Level 4 - Light Spellcaster - Attack: 1500. Defense: 600.)
Kite then pointed out, "And when she is summoned onto the field, I get to activate her effect! I have to shuffle 5 Galaxy and/or Photon monsters from my graveyard and then I get to draw 2 cards from my deck!"
5 cards were slotted from his D-pad to which he took them and showed them to everyone, "I pick my Photon Advancer, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, Caesar, Veil and Lead." He then placed them in his deck. They were shuffled automatically and then he drew two cards from them.
When he drew them, he smirked. He placed one of them in his hand and the other he slammed onto his D-pad. "And when I control a Galaxy or Photon monster, I get to special summon Photon Advancer from my hand to the field!"
The same monster that he used for the first ever XYZ summon appeared onto the field.
(Photon Advancer: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
"2 Level 4 monsters…" Alexis hummed.
"He's going to XYZ summon again!" yelled out Celina.
"How right you are! I overlay my Level 4 Galaxy Cleric and Photon Advancer!" He pushed his two hands forward, before merging them together symbolizing both monsters as a galaxy appeared beneath Kite's feet. "With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!" The two monsters were sucked in.
Kite began to chant, "Proud warrior from the deepest part of Space, prove your loyalty as a servant of the galaxy! I XYZ Summon! Fight Along me, Rank 4! Starliege Paladynamo!" The galaxy exploded as from the galaxy appeared a knight in the brightest white armour with wings sharper than claws and a sword that was bright blue with two yellow overlay units circling around him.
It was similar to Galaxion in a lot of ways.
(Starliege Paladynamo: XYZ - Rank 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2000. Defense: 1000.)
"That's the third one." muttered Zane as he narrowed his eyes at the monster. It got him thinking.
How many XYZ monsters are there and…are there any for his Cyber Dragons?
"It's time to attack! Paladynamo will attack your Ojama Yellow with Photon Diving!" Paladynamo jumped up, clenched his sword and as soon as it landed towards Ojama Yellow, its head was cut off and then it exploded.
"Yellow!"
"Bro!"
Kite then took a card from his hand, "I will end my turn with one face down card, you can go now." a card materialized behind Paladynamo.
Turn 10. Chazz - 400 lp - 2 cards
"You think that's going to slow me down? Not a chance! I draw!" Chazz drew his card. He smiled as soon as he activated the card he just drew, "I activate Pot Of Avarice," a pot appeared in front of Chazz,"and it is similar to your Galaxy Cleric in that I have to return 5 monsters from my graveyard to my deck and then I get to draw 2 cards!"
5 cards appeared from his graveyard and he picked them all up and threw them in his pot to which the pot responded by spitting in his hands, allowing him to get two new cards, which disgusted most people.
He looked over the newly drawn cards and smirked, "Guess this duel is coming to an end, huh?" Kite raised an eyebrow as he heard that sentence as he saw Chazz point at his Ojama Black, "I tribute my Ojama Black so I can normal summon my Armed Dragon LV5!"
Ojama Black waved Ojama Green goodbye as he disappeared from the field and in his place was summoned the red black dragon covered in spikes, with small wings and emerald green eyes.
As soon as he was summoned he glared at the Photon Rider and punched the air around him.
(Armed Dragon LV5: Level 5 - Wind Dragon - Attack: 2400. Defense: 1700.)
Most people would be shocked that Chazz would summon that dragon since he only plays one copy of it, but since he activated Pot Of Avarice, it was a normal play.
But Chazz wasn't done with that turn, not even close. He took one of his cards, "And since I have a LV monster, I can then activate the Spell Level Up! I tribute one of my LV monsters," His Wind Dragon roared as it disappeared from the field, "And then I can special summon a LV monster that was written in its description!"
He took out his deck and then a certain monster, which he then returned his deck back in the duel disk. He then slammed the card on his duel disk, "So I want you to welcome the evolved state of Armed Dragon LV5, Armed Dragon LV7!"
From the field appeared a dragon that made the previous one look like a baby in comparison. The dragon was 3 meters big and its skin was both black as the deepest part of space and crimson red. Its small wings were replaced by metal blades and its small tail looked like a drill from Gurren Laggan. Its emerald eyes stayed the same colour, but its body was a different story. It was covered by drills and spikes that looked like it could hurt you, just by looking at it.
The Dragon roared when summoned.
(Armed Dragon LV7: Level 7 - Wind Dragon - Attack: 2800. Defense: 1000.)
Kite nodded, impressed with the looks of the mighty dragon, but it did confuse him on why he declared it the end of the duel. Sure the monster did look tough, but not enough to end the duel. He would only lose 800 life points if he declares an attack, which he had plenty of.
He did remember that he had a much more powerful version of the dragon he just summoned, as then he could feel his dragon growling. He looked at his dragon, "What's wrong, Galaxy-Eyes?" he heard his dragon growl as he knew it was meant towards Chazz's dragon.
"A dragon is coming? The dragon we saw?" Galaxy-Eyes gave him a low snort as Kite nodded along, "I am right? Okay, but why are you so interested?" Galaxy-Eyes left out a small whine, "You want to fight it? Well don't worry about that," Kite grinned, "You will soon when his turn ends."
"Hey are you listening?" Kite looked at Chazz who had an angry scowl on his face, "Because I am not done!"
"Sorry, go ahead," he said.
"Good," Chazz then picked up a card from his hand and showed it to him, "Because it is time to show you my strongest monster! The Evolution of the Armed Dragons," The Key Keepers leaned in, "I sacrifice my Armed Dragon LV7 to summon a much more powerful dragon." His Armed Dragon disappeared as he began to chant.
"Dragon from the winds of a hurricane. Skin tough as metal. I summon you to strike your enemies with your thunder! Appear, Armed Dragon LV10!" Chazz slammed the card on his duel disk as thunder stroke down on Chazz's field as a dragon whose entire skin was made out metal, crimson red skin, sharp claws and wings with its emerald eyes turning into a deeper shade of green appeared onto the field with a mighty roar.
(Armed Dragon LV10: Level 10 - Wind Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2000.)
"Impressive monster," Kite praised, "but how is that supposed to finish me off? Sure it has good stats, but that's about…" He looked at Chazz holding a card in his hands and the Key Keepers grinning, sans Zane, "...it."
"You're right. It does have good stats, but it also has a great effect! You see if I discard a card from my hand," He did so as from the palms black lightning was created. "I can destroy every face up monster on your side of the field!"
"What?!" For the first time in the duel, Kite was shocked at a move.
"That's right! The Boss always has something in his sleeves against opponents like you!" cheered Green.
"You heard him, Armed Dragon! Destroy Paladynamo with your effect!" Armed Dragon did as it was told and threw the blast towards Kite's XYZ monster, destroying it in one hit.
Kite then placed his hand on his deck, "When Paladynamo is destroyed, I get to draw one card!" He drew his card and placed it in his hand.
"Like that will help you! Armed Dragon LV10! Attack him directly with Static Orb Blast!" From the palms of the Wind Dragon, the same orb appeared from it that destroyed Kite's XYZ monster, and threw it towards Kite.
"If this connects, Chazz won!" cheered Alexis.
"Not quite! I reveal my face-down! Mirror Shade!" his set card was activated as a Mirror Barrier appeared in front of him, "I don't take any damage for the rest of the turn, but I have to pay half of my life points to do it!" The orb flew towards Kite and made an explosion, but was unable to make a scratch as the barrier faded.
Kite: 2500 - 1250 life points
Chazz: 400 lp
And now, the life points are closer than they have ever been, and it was clear that however makes a bigger monster first and is able to attack it successfully, wins.
"So close." Chazz gritted his teeth as he took a sharp breath. "Your move."
Turn 11. Kite - 1250 lp - 2 cards
Kite nodded as he drew his card. He drew Photon Caesar, a card that doesn't help him right now, but that doesn't mean that it won't help him with his turn. He placed it in his hands as he took out another card from his hand, "From my hand, I activate the Spell Photon Trade!"
A card materialized in front of the Photon Rider as he took a card from his hand, "I have to discard one Photon monster from my hand," he did so, "For the price of drawing 2 cards from my deck!" He did so as he grinned when he saw the two cards he drew.
"So it's like a miniature Graceful Charity, but with more specific types of cards for cost." Bastion noted.
He then took a newly drawn card from his hand, "I will then activate Photon Sanctuary!" A card materialized onto the field, "Thanks to this card's effect, I get to special summon 2 Photon Tokens in defense mode, but I can only summon Light monsters for the rest of the turn."
Two light blue orbs with 3 mini light blue orbs, each, were circling around them covered by a white aura.
(Photon Token: Level 4 - Light Thunder - Attack: 2000. Defense: 0.) x 2
"That's a better version of Stray Lambs!" yelled out Alexis as she is the one that plays Stray Lambs in her deck.
Kite then took a card from his hand, and judging by Armed Dragon LV10 growling, it wasn't a good sign. "When I control two monsters with 2000 or higher attack points, I can sacrifice them," his two tokens disappeared from the field, "And then I can special summon the monster that brought you difficulty, my ace, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!"
From the skies above, Galaxy-Eyes could be seen from there and it flew straight towards the floor making all the spectators fall to their feet as they saw the second coming of the ace monster of the Photon Rider.
(Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: Level 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
Both of the dragons stared at each other right before roaring, trying to sound louder than the other as Kite remained still while Chazz covered his ears in pain.
He fell to his knees, yelling in pain as Armed Dragon stopped the roaring. Kite looked at his dragon, "Galaxy-Eyes stop now!" The dragon looked in shock as it looked at his master, but obliged anyway.
Before anyone could ask why he did that Kite continued on with his turn, trying to not make them question why he did that, "I activate my Equip Spell, Photon Shot!" a card materialized in front of Kite as his dragon glew purple, "This card allows my monster to gain 300 extra attack points!"
"What?!"
Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon roared in power, but he did get a little scared when Kite angrily glanced at him.
Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: 3000 - 3300 attack points
"It's stronger than Chazz's Armed Dragon now!" yelled Jaden.
"If this connects, Chazz will only have 100 life points left!" yelled Celina.
"That's right! Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon attack Armed Dragon LV10 with Photon Stream of Destruction!" yelled Kite as his dragon charged a blue beam, which then was turned into a purple beam, to which he shot it towards Armed Dragon's body, making a small explosion.
Chazz had to shield himself from it as Green stayed quiet.
Kite: 1250 lp
Chazz: 400 - 100 life points
Chazz began breathing rapidly, trying not to fall unconscious as Kite tried to help him, but stopped as Chazz lifted his duel disk up, "You fell for it."
Kite was confused, "What?"
"I said you fell for it!" from his graveyard, a card appeared from it to which he took it. "When a monster I control is destroyed by battle, I banish Ojamarking from my graveyard so I can special summon an Ojama monster from my graveyard! So appear, Ojama Yellow!"
"I'm back!~ˇ" sang Ojama Yellow in an X position and waved at Ojama Green.
(Ojama Yellow: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
"Not bad, you can go now." Kite said.
Turn 12. Chazz - 100 lp - 0 cards
Chazz drew his card and immediately activates it. "I'll start by activating Pot Of Greed!" the legendary pot appeared onto the field "This card allows me to draw 2 cards from my deck!" He did so as the pot exploded.
He smiled when he saw a great combo with this hand, but it would lead to one disadvantage. He sucked his breath as he activated one of the Spells in his hand, "I activate Polymerization! I fuse from my field my Ojama Yellow and Green!" His two Light Beasts were then sucked into a Red-Blue Spiral Vortex.
Chazz then began to chant, "For the protection of a kingdom, two brothers merge to create a protector for the kingdom! I Fusion Summon! Appear, Ojama Knight!" From the vortex came a small knight with a small shield and a sword along with it, with the Ojama Yellow's eyes coming out of the suit.
"Thee shall not receiveth past me fiend." proudly claimed Ojama Knight, in a Shakespearean way.
(Ojama Knight: Fusion - Level 5 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 2500.)
"F'r thee seeth i am hath used by the greatest boss of al-" Ojama Knight then soon saw his position as did everyone else, "Wait why am I in attack mode?!" he asked, dropping his accent.
"Because for one reason!" Ojama Knight looked at his Boss as he smirked, "Attack Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon! With Ojama Slash!"
Ojama Knight did as he was told as he, Kite, Galaxy-Eyes and the Key Keepers, including Zane, yelled at the same time "What?!/What?!"
Kite shook his head as he looked at his dragon, who also was shocked, "You heard him, Galaxy-Eyes! Counter attack with Photon Stream Of Destruction!"
Galaxy-Eyes shook his head from his shock and shot a powerful purple beam towards Ojama Knight.
"Why Boss!?" yelled Ojama Knight as the beam was going closer and closer, almost taking him and Chazz down at the same time.
"Because of this! Go, Battle Fusion!" He activated the other card from his hand as he began to explain it, "This card allows my Fusion monster that is attacking, a boost that is the monster that is attacking, and then in this case, a 3300 attack point boost!"
Ojama Knight: 0 - 3300 attack points
"So you are going for a mutual destruction!?" yelled Kite in shock.
"That's right! Ojama Knight destroy Galaxy-Eyes with Ojama Slash!" yelled Chazz as his monster nodded.
With the help of the Spell card, Ojama Knight grew in size as the purple beam hit him in the chest. That wasn't enough to stop the Light Beast Fusion monster as it used his shield to protect him from the attack and then went towards the dragon while grabbing his sword.
When it was close enough, he threw his shield and sliced the head of the dragon, but also was destroyed at the same time from the mouth of the dragon which came out the most powerful part of the beam.
Kite and Chazz began to breathe heavily as they looked at each other. It was clear to everyone, they were exhausted from the duel, but the end and winner of the duel was still undecided.
"How long will this go on for?" asked Celina.
"I don't know, but either way, I was glad to watch this sweet duel." said Jaden as he grinned.
"At least there is one positive." Alexis tried to stay positive of the duel.
"You have proven quite an opponent." breathed out Kite as he had a smile on his face, a one that he would only show Hart to, "Possibly my toughest one."
"Same here goes to you too. Haven't had this tough opponent for a while." Jaden was half offended at what Chazz said, but honestly couldn't blame him. "I had to give it you, I haven't had a duel where I had to use my entire deck towards someone."
"The same thing could be said for you, but there is still left of the duel and my deck left that I have to show you." said Kite as Chazz grinned.
"Really? Can't wait to see them. I end my turn." he said.
Turn 13. Kite - 1250 lp - 0 cards
"Oh you are about to see them!" Kite drew his card and then a card materialized in front of him, "I activate the Spell; Spellbook From The Pot! We both are allowed to draw 3 cards!"
Kite and Chazz drew their 3 cards and Kite smiled at the cards he just drew as he slammed one of them, "From my hand, I summon Cipher Wing!"
From the skies above, a little fairy looking monster flew down to the scene. It was a green square with a little yellow gate around it with 6 green wings, 3 on each side.
(Cipher Wing: Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1400. Defense: 1200.)
Kite then took the rest of his hand and placed them in his D-pad, "And when I control a Cipher monster, I get to special summon a Cipher Wing from my hand, and since I have two in my hand, I will special summon two of them!"
"Ah no! Now he will have enough for a Rank 4!" yelled Bastion as the two Cipher Wings appeared on the left and right side of the first summoned Cipher Wing.
Kite chuckled at the words of the Ra Yellow.
(Cipher Wing: Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1400. Defense: 1200.) x 2
"Rank 4? No, you are mistaken about my move." Zane raised an eyebrow on what the Photon Rider said, as he pointed out his next move, "I will now tribute my Cipher Wing, and in this case, the middle one."
His middle, aka the first one, Cipher Wing disappeared from the field as Kite finished his sentence, "So then all of my Cipher monsters gain 4 Levels!"
"Wait so that means you are going to-" started off Jaden as Celina finished the sentence.
"-Summon a Rank 8?!"
"That's right! My monsters now gain 4 levels and become Level 8 monsters!" yelled out Kite as he then glew a blue light around him.
Cipher Wing: Level 4 - 8 x 2
"Wait, why are you glowing?" asked a confused Chazz as the rest of them were shocked on what they saw of the Photon Rider.
"This?" Kite chuckled, "Nothing much, I am just summoning one of my most powerful monsters!" Everyone's eyes widened in alarm as they heard that sentence as Kite pushed his hands forward, "I overlay my two Level 8 Cipher Wings!"
A galaxy appeared in front of Kite's feet as the two Cipher Wings were sucked into it, "With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!" He merged his two hands together as images of the cards appeared on each of his hands as when they got closer, a card appeared in their place.
The galaxy exploded as a spear appeared onto Kite's field, that was the darkest shade of blue, with the hint of black and purple, to which the Photon Rider took it and threw it at the sky as he began to chant, "Appear! Galactic Ultimate Dragon, Numbers 62! Darkness and light wandering in the universe. Sorrowful Dragon who sleeps on the interstate. Its power of creating opens the door of the truth! I XYZ Summon! Rank 8! Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon!"
From the skies of the exploded spear, a dragon of space and time, the ultimate dragon that is the living embodiment of darkness and light, flew towards his master and landed on its feet, roaring as it landed, happy for another fight. The dragon skin was the lightest shade of blue while the armour part of it was the darkest shade of blue. There were green orbs around the powerful dragon, accompanying it was black armour on the hands of the dragon with 2 overlay units around them. The upside of the wings and the head was the most beautiful shade of purple anyone could ever see, as the wings were that of a blade from a brave warrior. There were at least 3 metal-like tails around the dragon that all of them were bigger than everyone watching the duel combined.
Everyone that wasn't Kite took a step backwards as even the Kaiser of Duel Academy didn't want to battle the dragon.
(Number 62: Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 4000. Defense: 3000.)
"Oh…my…god." Chazz took a step back.
"That thing is huge."
"How is it possible that he makes his monsters look tougher and scarier every time he summons them?"
"I concur."
"How is he going to combat that?"
"...okay, is it weird that I want to be in Chazz's place right now?"
"Yes." Everyone replied to what Jaden said.
"If you find that impressive, how about you see his attack. Go! Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon! Attack with Eternity Photon Stream!" From the mouth of the powerful XYZ monster, a beam appeared in its mouth as an afterimages of the original Galaxy-Eyes and the Cipher Dragon appeared back at the monster and shot a beam that was powerful enough to destroy an island.
Everyone looked worried about Chazz as they yelled, "Chazz!"
But Chazz was quicker than most people would have thought as he took a card from his hand faster than anybody, "That won't be happening! I send Kuriboh to negate the damage!"
A Kuriboh appeared in front of Chazz and the blast destroyed it, but it was enough for the Slifer Red not to be destroyed by the attack of Prime Photon Dragon.
"So you have survived this turn, impressive I might add." Kite calmly said as he took a deep breath, hating that he would do something to him, "I end my turn with that. You can go."
Turn 14. Chazz - 100 lp - 2 cards
"Of course it is because only The Chazz could do such a feat! I draw!" Chazz drew his card as he looked over his hand. It…wasn't much to say the least. Not one card could help him with one turn since the card that interests him the most isn't usable in this situation.
But that doesn't mean it was the end, since if he survives this turn, he grinned, he will have the best shot and defeat him, or at the very least destroy that Prime Photon Dragon.
He took 2 cards from his hand, "I end my turn with 2 facedowns. Your move." he said as two cards were set vertically in front of Chazz as most of the Key Keepers sucked in their breath at the move, feeling bad for him as he couldn't do anything in this turn.
Turn 15. Kite - 1250 lp - 0 cards
Kite drew his card as then Chazz then activated his set card, "During your Standby Phase, I get to activate my Trap card! Jar Of Avarice!" A pot that was similar to that of the Pot Of Avarice, but this time with a golden colouring scheme.
"Thanks to this cards effect, I get to pick any 5 cards from my graveyard," Chazz then took his 5 cards from his graveyard. They were: Ojama Delta Hurricane!, Pot Of Greed, Graceful Charity, Ojama Knight and Battle Fusion. He threw them in the pot, "And then I get to shuffle them, and I get the ability of drawing one extra card from my deck!"
The jar then turned around and spat the card he was about to draw in his hand, still disgusting everyone, including Prime Photon Dragon.
"Okay, that is disgusting." Kite commented as he then took the card he just drew, "But anyway, I hope you drew a card that you needed, because I summon my Photon Pirate!"
From the skies appeared a pirate ship, which made Celina have some Vietnam flashbacks with her tag duel against the admirals, and then a pirate with red mechanic legs, arms, shoulders and face with some beige colouring to go with the monster, it wore a pirate hat and wielded a golden sword and a hook with light blue skin. The monster dropped from the ship, making the aircraft disappear, and the pirate landed safely.
(Photon Pirate: Level 3 - Light Machine - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
Kite then pointed out the effect of his newly summoned monster, "And then, I get to activate my monsters special effect! I get to banish a Photon Monster from my graveyard, and he gains 1000 attack points until the End Phase! The best news is that I can use this effect twice per turn!"
"Are you kidding me?!" yelled Chazz as Photon Advancer and Orbital appeared onto the field, only for them to be banished instead as the Pirate swung his sword and hook.
Photon Pirate: 1000 - 2000 - 3000 attack points
"Oh no! If this all connects, Chazz will lose!" yelled Jaden in worry as Zane shook his head.
"Jaden no, if any of the attacks are connected. Chazz will lose anyway." The Kaiser stated.
"That's right, and I have to acknowledge that this was a fun duel, but all good things must come to an end, so now I will attack you with my Prime Photon Dragon with Eternity Photon Stream!" Kite roared as his dragon charged a powerful beam.
And then it was then fired towards the Key Keeper as the attack went closer and closer towards him, with the strength of both Galaxy-Eyes Photon and Cipher Dragon combined.
The beam went closer and closer towards Chazz as they yelled out in worry towards him, "Chazz!"
The person in question instead…smirked.
"Bring it on. I activate my Trap, Draining Shield!" a barrier was formed in front of Chazz as it sucked in the blast without any effort, "This card prevented me from taking damage from that attack, and instead, I gain those attack points!" He announced as Kite gritted his teeth and most of the Key Keepers cheered.
Kite: 1250 lp
Chazz: 100 - 4100 life points
"Alright, now he has more than triple of Kite!" cheered Alexis.
"But don't forget that he will lose 3000 life points," said Bastion.
"But he still have more life points than at the beginning of the turn," said Celina.
"You are correct as my Photon Pirate will attack you directly with Photon Slash!" yelled out the Photon Rider as his monster ran towards Chazz and slashed him upside slash as Chazz fell down his knees.
Kite: 1250 lp
Chazz: 4100 - 1100 life points
"That's nothing. I can still take more than that." said Chazz as he stood up as Kite smiled.
"Okay, then you can go right now since I end my turn." he said as his monster lost some power.
Photon Pirate: 3000 - 1000 attack points
Turn 16. Chazz - 1100 lp - 2 cards
"Oh I will!" Chazz drew his card as then a grin appeared on his face, ear to ear. As he looked over to his entire hand, and then picked up the other card needed for his combo.
"I will start by activating my Spell card, Ojamadala!" a card appeared onto this field, "For price of 1000 life points (LP: 1100 - 100.) I then have the ability of special summoning my three monsters needed for the combo from the graveyard."
Three cards popped out of his graveyard part of the duel disk as he took all of them and placed them on his duel disk, "So then, appear! Ojama Yellow, Ojama Black and Ojama Green! All in defense mode!"
"Sup, everybody?" asked Ojama Black in an X position.
"Didja miss us?" asked Ojama Green, in the same position of his brother
"I know the Boss did!" cheered Ojama Yellow, as he was in the same position as his two brothers.
(Ojama Yellow: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
(Ojama Black: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
(Ojama Green: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
Kite crossed his arms, confused on why he would summon those monsters on his field. Sure they weren't bad, but they weren't enough to destroy his…well anything really. But then he remembered a certain combo of the duel and the one before this duel.
"So how about I destroy everything! I activate Ojama Delta Hurricane! If I have Ojama Yellow, Black and Green on my side of the field, I am allowed to destroy every card on your side of the field!" his monsters all flew towards the dragons.
"You drew yourself an Ojama Delta Hurricane?" asked the Photon Rider as Chazz laughed.
"Drew it? No, I didn't, but who says that was the only Delta card I have?" said Chazz as before anyone could question him, he activated the second card in his hand, "I activate my Ojama Delta Thunder!"
Electricity roamed through the Ojama brothers as they all grinned ear to ear as Chazz began to explain the card, "When I have Ojama Yellow, Black and Green, I get to activate two effects one after the other. The first one allows me to deal you 500 points of damage for every card in your hand and field!"
"What?!" mostly everyone shouted at the same time, but the facial expressions ranged differently as the electricity shot towards Kite, making the Photon Rider almost fall down to his knees.
Kite: 1250 - 250 life points
Chazz: 100 lp
"Aww yeah, now they are almost evenly matched!" cheered Celina as Bastion nodded with a smirk on his face.
"Yes, and now it is anyone's game at this point." he said.
As soon as Kite picked himself up, Chazz then took out his deck, "And then after the damage dealing effect, I get to search for my Ojama Delta Hurricane! from my deck and send it to my graveyard." he calmly states as he then took the card from his deck and sent it to the graveyard.
"Just like the card I just sent to my graveyard, Ojama Delta Thunder!'s final effect activates! I get to destroy every card on your side of the field! So let him have it boys!" yelled Chazz as his monster joined together.
"You got it Boss!"
"Let's show this guy some action!"
"And then no one could steal our THUNDER!" all of the Ojama brothers came together, and posed dramatically as the thunder from all of them went past them and went straight towards Prime Photon Dragon and Photon Pirate, as the former screeched in pain.
"Prime Photon!" Kite gasped as he saw one of his best monsters being destroyed in a turn like this. He breathed in, he knew that handling this with anger is the wrong thing to do, so he won't do it.
He learned that lesson.
The Photon Rider looked over to his opponent as he took another card from his hand, "I end my turn with a facedown." a card was set vertically behind the three Ojamas that returned to their spots.
Turn 17. Kite - 250 lp - 0 cards
Despite him being almost down for the count and losing what looked like to be his most powerful monster, he drew as if he didn't lose a pack of gum as he drew his card and nodded as he played the monster.
"I summon my Photon Chargeman!" Onto Kite's field appeared a gecko-like monster with a tight blue uniform, white shoulders and head with a yellow orb in the middle and brown boots.
(Photon Chargeman: Level 4 - Light Warrior - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
It wasn't as impressive as his other monsters, but that didn't mean it looked like a weak monster.
"And with him, I will destroy your Ojama Green with Photon Punch!" his monster nodded as it zoomed across the field and appeared towards Ojama Green and delivering a powerful jab on the head, making the monster explode.
But that didn't matter as Chazz activated his set card, "That didn't change a thing! Go, Ojama Delta Wear! This card special summons any Ojama monsters that were destroyed by battle this turn! So come out! Ojama Green!"
Chazz took the card that was just destroyed this turn and placed it on his duel disk as his Ojama Green appeared onto the field.
(Ojama Green: Level 2 - Light Beast - Attack: 0. Defense: 1000.)
"At least you don't have any facedowns. Your move." Kite said as everyone leaned in.
Turn 18. Chazz - 100 lp - 0 cards
Chazz drew his card and flipped it. He smirked as he activated automatically, "Go! Pot Of Greed! Two more for me!" Chazz drew his two cards from his deck.
He took one of the cards from his hand, "I will first set a card facedown," a card was set vertically behind the three Ojama monsters as he then took a card from his hand, "And now I will summon Chick The Yellow!"
Onto the field, a small boy with yellow hair with a mallet for a weapon appeared with the standard Dark Scorpion uniform. "Oh yeah, Boss! Time for more representation!"
(Dark Scorpion - Chick The Yellow: Level 3 - Dark Warrior - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
Kite saw the attack points, and he knew what he was about to do so he breathed out and threw his hand towards the field, with Chazz returning the gesture.
"Attack! With Photon Punch/Mallet Mash! For mutual destruction!" Both of the monsters nodded as they both ran at each other.
Photon Chargeman was able to strike Chick The Yellow first with his fist, but the mallet also managed to strike him as well making both of the Dark and Light Warriors explode as the two opponents stared at each other.
It was a quiet silence as they knew what they were talking to each other without muttering a single word.
It was almost like both of them had something for this duel at their turns, but no one will know how this will go if their turns don't go.
Chazz sighed, "You can go now. And make it worth it."
"I will." said Kite as he looked at his empty D-pad.
Turn 19. Kite - 250 lp - 0 cards
As soon as Kite drew his card, the entire atmosphere changed as they felt something shake beneath them. "Depending on how many Overlay Units it had when destroyed…" everything shook even harder as Photon Rider stood calm like this wasn't even affecting him in the slightest.
"...during my Standby Phases equal to the amount of Overlay Units, I get to revive this beast." he stood there as a card popped out his graveyard as everyone looked in horror as they didn't know what it was, but it felt like a familiar face.
"So come out! The ultimate face of the Lightness itself! The embodiment of Order and Chaos! Revive yourself from the depths of the underworld! Number 62!" Every single face from the Key Keepers lost all colours at the same time from the name, "Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon!"
Kite slammed the card on his D-pad as a monster appeared onto the field, and it took the effect of destroying entire fields enough to destroy it. The monster was just as big from the previous encounter, but this time felt scarier when it felt anger from it, especially towards the Ojama brothers.
Around Kite was a blue aura.
(Number 62: Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 4000. Defense: 3000.)
"Oh come on! He just took down that thing!"
"What's worse is that it was all on his Standby Phase!"
"Wait a minute, that means he could summon more?!"
"Oh how right you are! I activate the Spell, Cards of Sanctity!" A card materialized in front of the Photon Rider as both he and the Key Keeper placed their hands on their decks, "This card allows both players to draw until we both have 6 cards in our hands, and since both of us have empty hands, we get to draw a full hand!"
And just like that, both duelists have the same hand, but despite all of that, it felt and looked like the advantage was in the hands of the Shadow Rider himself.
As such, Kite took a card from his hand, "That's not all! I will now activate my Spell, Re-XYZ!" a card materialized in front of him, "With this card, I get to target an XYZ monster from my graveyard, and then I get to overlay monsters in my graveyard that are needed for the summoning of that XYZ monster!"
"So it's like a Lunalight Wolf's Dance." said Celina.
"And like a Miracle Fusion." Jaden joined in as a galaxy appeared in front of Kite.
Kite pushed his two arms as two Photon Caesars appeared onto the field, "I overlay from my graveyard my two Level 8 Photon Caesars!" They were both sucked together into the galaxy as Kite merged his two hands together as the artworks went into each other, "With these two monsters, I re-build the Overlay Network!"
The galaxy exploded as then a dragon that looked like Prime Photon Dragon appeared onto the field, with its rainbow-like wings and purple blue like skin. Roaring with its brother, ready for another fight.
(Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
"So they have returned." Kaiser narrowed his eyes.
"The XYZ Galaxy-Eyes monsters." Alexis did the same as Bastion bit his lip and Chazz took a step back.
Kite took another card from his hand, "And if I control either a Galaxy or a Photon monster, I get to normal summon this card, ignoring the need to tributing anything! Appear, Galaxy Knight."
A knight in tight white and black armour carrying a massive light sword on a surfboard like vehicle flew down to the skies above.
(Galaxy Knight: Level 8 - Light Warrior - Attack: 2800. Defense: 2600.)
Before anyone could talk about his move, Kite continued with his turn. "If my Galaxy Knight is summoned this way, I have the ability of, whether or not, I have a Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon in my graveyard, I get to revive it in defense points for the price of 1000 attack points!"
Galaxy Knight: 2800 - 1800 attack points
A card popped out of his graveyard as he then took it, much to the dismay of everyone around as he slammed the dragon onto his D-pad.
And then, for the uptenth time in this duel, his dragon was summoned onto the field with his evolved form and his cousin, and they all roared at the same time as they had to cover their ears from the loud screaming.
(Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: Level 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
"Holy Egyptian Jesus!"
"I am getting real sick of seeing this monster again."
"I concur."
"Same here."
"I think it is finally time to fill all my monster zones, y'know?" said Kite as everyone looked shocked at the statement.
"What!? You can't! You already normal summoned…" started off Chazz as he then saw Kite picking up a card, "Oh you gotta be kidding me."
"I am not kidding around. Especially since I control a Galaxy-Eyes monster on my side of the field, in this case I have 3, I get to special summon this card in defense mode from my hand! So appear into this world, Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon!"
The shadows of Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon were shaking as then they came off the dragon, revealing it to be like a mirror version of the monster, but this time it was see through. It was in a kneeling position.
(Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon: Level 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2500.)
"He now has 3 Level 8 monsters."
Chazz took a step back as he then a smirk from Kite's face, "No…"
"I'm sorry to tell you this, but I will now overlay my Level 8 Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon and Galaxy Knight!" the biggest galaxy ever formed in this duel appeared below Kite's feet as he pushed his two hands together, as everyone saw him now glowing in purple aura with both red and blue auras fighting for dominance.
An image of Photon Dragon appeared in the middle as the images of Afterglow and Galaxy Knight merged with it and so did Kite's hands as they were then sucked into the big galaxy, "With these 3 Level 8 monsters, I build the Overlay Network!"
The galaxy exploded as then a spear appeared, but this time it was the biggest one with having more of a red and purple colouring scheme than the others as the Photon Rider took it and threw it as hard as he could as he began to chant, "Radiant galaxy, here and now become the striking light, and show yourself! With the strengths of a 100 black holes put together! Light and Darkness combine to create this beast! I XYZ Summon! Descend, My very soul! Rank 8! Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon!"
The spear exploded in the air as they looked ahead and with each passing second, their eyes and fear grew bigger and bigger as they saw the monster being formed in front of them. It began first at the legs, which were the brightest shade of red ever seen with claws tougher than any metal, as then the body was formed, and it was clear it was a powerful beast just by looking at it as the shoulders were that of houses and with the tail, just a little swing of it was enough to destroy one, which the parts looked like it was made out of actual obsidian.
The arms were formed and so did the wings as the muscles on those arms surpassed any and all humans put together as the wings were that of very very very sharp knives as they looked bigger than that of everyone watching this duel combined. And then, finally, the head was formed. Or should I say, heads were formed, as then they saw three stacks of heads looking down on everyone with each of them. Three Overlay Units were circling around them.
It flew towards his brothers and roared in power as everyone looked on, jaw dropped.
(Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 4500. Defense: 3000.)
"Holy regular Jesus!"
"I have seen some dragons in my life, even Five-Headed Dragon, but that one takes the cake!"
"And it probably ate it too!"
"It's…bigger and stronger than my Cyber End Dragon."
"Great Scott!"
The Key Keepers gave out their thoughts on this situation, but Chazz on the other hand, "Do you really think that would go over my field! I will still survive this turn!"
"Are you insane!?" yelled out Celina.
"I'm perfectly sane!" yelled back Chazz as Kite smirked.
"Since you asked for it. All of my monsters will attack your monsters! Prime Photon, Cipher Dragon and Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon attack Ojama Green, Black and Yellow! With Ultimate Eternal Cipher Stream of Destruction!" yelled out Kite as from the mouths of all his XYZ monsters were charged powerful beams.
They all shot at the same time as they could feel the entire island shake from the strength of the blasts. Chazz covered himself as the explosion covered the entire dueling field.
As the dust was covered it revealed Chazz standing proud as he was perfectly safe.
"Is that all?" he asked with a smirk as Kite returned the offer.
"No, since I have one more move." Kite took a card from his hand as Chazz looked at him weird.
"What?" His eyes widened as everyone else stayed quiet as Kite played a card from his hand.
A card materialized onto Kite's field, it was a Spell card, "I activate Miracle Galaxy. After the Battle Phase, if I didn't take any damage," He smirked, "I get to attack once again with one monster on my side of the field."
"WHAT!?" everyone, even Kaiser, shouted at the same time as they were shocked at the news.
"Wait, that means that Chazz lost!" yelled out Alexis in worry.
"Hold on tight, man!" shouted Jaden.
"Thanks for the warning!" Chazz shielded himself as Kite yelled out, "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon! Attack him directly with Ultimate Photon Stream Of Destruction!"
From all of the mouths of the powerful monster, three beams of light were then shot towards the Slifer Red, and it felt like it could decimate several trees along the way. The beam went faster and stronger with each minute as Chazz's set card was opened, but that didn't matter as the beam collided with Chazz making an explosion.
Kite lowered his D-pad, closed his eyes, sad that he had to do that to him, but he couldn't do nothing but that. "And like that, this duel is over."
"Are you sure about that?" said Chazz as the dust uncovered revealing himself and his set card as everyone stared at the empty field as the Dragon looked at it confused.
"Before you ask, this card, Direct Boarder, negates all damage that would deal me 1000 or more life points." He straightens his back as he grinned ear to ear, "I would lose this! Since the person that is going to win the duel is going to be…THE CHAZZ!" he raised his index finger up as stared at him, shocked at the words he made like he grew 3 heads.
Kite couldn't help, but smile at the words he said. It was like Hart said whenever he blocked one of his moves. He took the cards that were in his hand as they were then set vertically behind his three powerful monsters, "I end my turn with two cards facedown. You can go."
Turn 20. Chazz - 100 lp - 6 cards
Chazz looked at his deck. Thinking about all of the cards he used this duel and how much he used in this duel. Dark Scorpions, Ojamas and Armed Dragons. He nearly used every single archetype in his deck, but…
he hasn't used all of them. There is still one more type of monsters in his deck.
He looked at the cards in his deck, sure he had a great combo ready, but he first needed to draw the right card. He closes his eyes as he then placed his fingers on his deck. He thought about all of the type of torment that would be inflicted if he lost the duel, all the misery, destruction and even the death of the most important people in his life.
Like his mother and, for some reason, Jesse.
He shook his head as he yelled at the top of his lungs, "I DRAW!" He stood there, not taking a single glance at the card he just drew as he took a little peak at the card and then he grinned.
It was perfect.
He then took a card from his hand and activated, "I'll start this perfect turn by activating my Continuous Spell card, Different Dimension Hangar!" A machine appeared in the sky and a small hole, "This card allows me to banish 3 Union monsters from my deck!" He took his deck as he then revealed to everyone his entire strategy.
He threw them in the portal as he returned the deck into his duel disk.
"Wait a sec that is the card he used against me in the promotion duels!" yelled out Jaden.
"So, Light Machine Union monsters as his final monsters." Bastion placed a hand under his chin, "An interesting synergy."
"I'll then summon a monster that was summoned on my first turn! Appear, X - Head Cannon!" yelled out Chazz as he summoned a monster with cannons on his shoulders with a spiky ball at the bottom with a blue-yellow colouring scheme.
(X - Head Cannon: Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1800. Defense: 1500.)
And from the sky, two mechanical arms then summoned a yellow tank and red dragon that were all made out of robotic parts on the left and right of X - Head Cannon, "When I summon a monster whose name is in the banished monster's descriptions, I get to summon them onto the field!"
"Interesting strategy." nodded Kite.
(Y - Dragon Head: Union - Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1500. Defense: 1600.)
(Z - Metal Tank: Union - Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1500. Defense: 1300.)
Chazz then took out a third card from his hand as he continued on his turn, "Oh it will be quite interesting on how I will destroy you! I activate Silent Doom! I can now special summon a normal monster from my graveyard!" He took out a card from his graveyard, "So revive yourself! V - Tiger Jet!"
A tiger that was also a jet, with a green and yellow colouring scheme flew through the ground as it landed towards Y - Dragon Head.
(V - Tiger Jet: Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1600. Defense: 1800.)
A smirk grew on Chazz's face as mechanical arms appeared from the portal and placed a blue coloured wing styled catapult towards Z - Metal Tank.
(W - Wing Catapult: Union - Level 4 - Light Machine - Attack: 1300. Defense: 1500.)
"What? Since when was that card in your grave-" Kite then remembered a certain card that helped him out.
"I activate the Spell, Graceful Charity! This card allows me to draw 3 cards!"
"So you planned it all along, huh?" smiled Kite as Chazz grinned as he picked up a card from his hand.
"Oh how right you are! I play my Spell card, Fissure!" Everyone stood in silence as they watched a hole appear beneath the Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon, "With this card, I get to destroy a monster on your side of the field with lowest attack points!"
Kite's eyes widened as he turned his head as he saw his Cipher Dragon screeching in pain as it was dragged down to the underground with Prime Photon and Neo Galaxy-Eyes looking in terror as they saw their brethen die in front of them.
"It's time for me to do some Fusion summoning!" Kite snapped his head towards Chazz as he pointed at his X - Head Cannon, Y - Dragon Head and Z - Metal Tank, "Or should I say, my version of XYZ summoning, huh?" he grinned as they all flew at the skies above.
Chazz then began to chant, "The destructiveness of a cannon, the roaring presence of a dragon and the impossibility of destroying a tank! Combine as one as the most destructive force is formed! I Fusion Summon! Descend, XYZ - Dragon Cannon!"
X - Head abandoned its spiky ball while Y- Dragon its wings. Z - Metal Tank stood still as Y - Dragon Head latched itself into it. As soon as Y - Dragon did that, X - Head Cannon connected itself on Z and Y to create a monster that Seto Kaiba himself uses. The machine stood proudly with its eyes glowing red.
(XYZ - Dragon Cannon: Fusion - Level 8 - Light Machine - Attack: 2800. Defense: 2600.)
Chazz then took a card from his hand, "Since I now I control my XYZ - Dragon Cannon, I get to activate his effect! By sending a card from my hand to the graveyard," Chazz did so as all of the cannons now pointed at Prime Photon Dragon, "I get to destroy one monster on your side of the field!"
Kite's eyes went up in alarm as the Fusion Light Machine monster shot bullets at his second strongest monster, which made it explode on impact.
He dropped his head.
That was the second time it was destroyed in this duel, but he has to admit.
He was doing a very good job at whipping away his field.
He then looked on as he saw Chazz's fingers on his deck, "When I discard Break Draw, I get to draw a card from my deck!" Chazz did so as then his eyes went up faster and higher than ever before as he grinned ear to ear as he activated the card.
"Go! Smashing Ground! This card destroys the monster with the biggest defense points, and since your XYZ monster has the highest one, it is the one that is getting smashed!" yelled Chazz as Kite looked on and saw a boulder crashing through.
He couldn't even mutter a word as he saw his dragon being crushed by the boulder, screeching in pain.
Chazz gripped his fist into a ball towards his face with a smirk on his face, "I finally did it! I won this…" he then saw the aura, that was purple, around Kite becoming red every passing second as he pointed towards his set card, "...oh no."
"Oh no." said the rest of the Key Keepers.
"Oh yes! I activate my set card! XYZ Double Back!" The Photon Rider's set card was then activated as his graveyard popped out two cards from it, "When an XYZ monster is destroyed, either by battle or effect, I get to special summon one including a monster that has equal or less attack points!"
Kite took the cards from his graveyard as he slammed the two cards onto his D-pad, "So reappear into this duel! MY VERY SOUL ITSELF! Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon and Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon!"
"Oh come on!"
"Can't he summon something else other than those two dragons!?"
"Apparently not."
Chazz took a step back as he then saw the two dragons that he just destroyed couple of minutes ago, "This just isn't my day, is it?"
(Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 4500. Defense: 3000.)
(Number 62: Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon: XYZ - Rank 8 - Light Dragon - Attack: 4000. Defense: 3000.)
Chazz looked over at his cards as he never would expect this comeback by just one card. He looked over what he could as then a small, but a great combo in his hand began.
He pointed towards the sky, "I won't stop! V - Tiger Jet and W - Wing Catapult! I fuse you two together!" he yelled as his two monsters nodded as they jumped at the same time.
The former Princeton began to chant, "Deadly predator of a tiger! Shield destroying power, but even better shield of a catapult! Combine together as the most defensive monster is formed! I Fusion Summon! Appear, VW - Tiger Catapult!"
V - Tiger Jet flew towards W - Wing Catapult, landing perfectly, making a new monster. The new monster landed on the right of XYZ - Dragon Cannon.
(VW - Tiger Catapult: Fusion - Level 6 - Light Machine - Attack: 2000. Defense: 2100.)
The whole atmosphere stayed silent as everyone who saw the promotional exams, know what is about to happen.
A monster strong enough to destroy one of the Galaxy-Eyes monsters, but not the other.
Chazz pointed at his two monsters, "Have you ever heard that two is better than one?" Kite raised an eyebrow, "Well forget that saying since I fuse my two monsters together!" His two monsters jumped into the air as Jaden leaned in as he remembered that powerful monster that took him a Winged Kuriboh LV10 to finish him and ABC off.
The black clad ravenette began to chant, "By the forces of the Light itself, two beings of strength and defense, merge as their power destroys everything around them! I Fusion Summon! Descend, VWXYZ - Dragon Catapult Cannon!"
Z - Metal Tanks' legs came out, X - Head Cannon jumped out of Y - Dragon Head, who's wings came off. V - Tiger Jet jumped out of W - WIng Catapult, who's legs also came off. And then they all merged together. The legs of Z - Metal Tank became its arms, Y - Dragon Head's wing also became its wings of the giant mech, the legs W - Wing Catapult became its legs. The head of Dragon Head was on the crotch of the mech. The head of the big mech was none other than X - Head Cannon.
(VWXYZ - Dragon Catapult Cannon: Fusion - Level 8 - Light Machine - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2800.)
"Impressive monster you have there." Nodded Kite as he was being serious about the monster. It was rare to see a monster that impressed him too much, well other than this monster.
In his mind, he was thinking about how hard this monster is to be summoned onto the field. First you need to have 5 specific monsters, on the field no less, and then, without any disruptions, need to make 2, relatively decent, monsters and then use them together to summon this monster.
He wasn't an expert in that type of monster, despite using a deck that spams Level 4 or 8 monsters on his side of the field.
But the fact he was able to summon all 7 monsters needed to summon this creature, was one of the most impressive things he has seen in a long time, but that doesn't mean his letting up.
He heard some of the Key Keepers cheering, especially the two Slifer Reds, with the Ra Yellow placing his hand under his chin, the Obelisk Blues standing quietly as they looked over the field.
While he is regretting that he is stopping time from the other Slifer Reds and Obelisk Blue, he was at least glad that they weren't in this mess.
His thoughts were destroyed when Chazz took the second to last card in his hand, "I will now send my Ojama Red to the graveyard so I can activate his effect!" VWXYZ pointed at Prime Photon Dragon, "This card allows my monster to banish any card on the field, and I will choose your Prime Photon Dragon!"
VWXYZ shot a beam with all of its cannons towards the Prime Photon Dragon, creating an explosion with the dragon roaring when it was destroyed.
Kite stared at his monster being banished, but stayed quiet. This duel wasn't over yet. He still had a powerful monster in his becking call, so it would be hard for someone to destroy it, but all good things…
…must come to an end.
"And now, the grand finale begins! I Equip to my monster with my Megamorph!" VWXYZ grew in size to even match the height of Neo Galaxy-Eyes as Chazz explained the effect, "If I have less life points than you, my monster's attack points…are now doubled!"
"Finally!"
"This duel is over!"
VWXYZ: 3000 - 6000 attack points
Kite stared at the monster and knew that, if he doesn't do something, he will lose the duel, and then he will never see his brother again. He dropped his head, not showing his eyes towards the opponent as Chazz took this as a form of surrendering.
"Even you know that this duel is in my bag now! So come on, VWXYZ - Dragon Catapult Cannon! Destroy Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon and make me the winner with Ultimate Destruction!" yelled Chazz as from the cannons of VWXYZ were charged as then they were fired at the XYZ Light Dragon monster.
Kite stayed quiet as he thought about doing anything except this, but there was no other way of doing this. He will get that key no matter what.
"You're right! This is over!" Kite then activated his last set card, "I activate my Trap! PHOTON SHOCK! During the battle phase, if I would take damage involving a Photon monster…" Kite leaned in.
"...we both take the damage."
"What?!" Chazz shouted as the attack went in on the Galaxy-Eyes monster as he knew it was too late to stop it.
"Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon! Counter attack with Ultimate Photon Stream Of Destruction!" yelled Kite as his dragon shot a beam that rivaled that of VWXYZ's shot as the beams clashing into each other was enough to make everyone else fall off their feet.
As then they all realized too late on what that meant as an explosion engulfed everyone from the beams clashing into each other as it vaporized both Neo Galaxy-Eyes and VWXYZ to smitterins.
The two were looking at each other, both exhausted from the attack as then…
…they both fell off their feet and landed on the hard floor.
Too tired, but more towards Kite, to even continue with the duel as they knew it was pointless.
Kite: 250 - 0 life points
Chazz: 100 - 0 life points
DRAW!
"CHAZZ!" most of them yelled out as they stopped.
The shadow charm and the Spirit Keys floating as then they both disappeared.
Meaning that both sides lost a member.
With 2 Shadow Riders left, and 5 Key Keepers left.
They walked towards the two bodies and check their pulse. And the good news came that both of them are alive, but they are needed to go to the infirmary room.
They even noticed the three non-Key Keepers, Syrus, Yusuke and Chumley, weren't frozen anymore, "...erious. Hot dogs aren't ta…" Syrus stopped on what he was about to say as they saw the looks of his friends and the two bodies on the floor, "...cos?"
Yusuke and Chumley stood there quietly as they saw the aftermath of a duel involving a new summoning Method and a Shadow Rider duel.
It was going to be a long night to explain.
Meanwhile at an unknown location
"That's it? All that buildup and those boasting, and all that he has done is defeat one measly Key Keeper." the purple haired Shadow Rider shook his head as he folded his arms, "I guess he was just all bark, but no bite."
"Be respectful, Yuri. He did at least eliminate 1 Key Keeper, unlike half of them." said Amneal as Yuri looked at him.
"Yes, but all he did was just XYZ summon. XYZ that! Galaxy-Eyes that!" Yuri mocked the Photon Rider, copying his voice and mannerism, "It gets boring after he does it the first 10 times."
"So are you saying that you are jealous that he was able to XYZ summon before you?" asked Amneal as he raised an eyebrow.
"Oh that?" Yuri laughed, "No, not really. At least he didn't use the other one I use." Yuri grinned sadistically, "Lets just say that they should sync well with my expectations of crushing them."
Amneal sighed, he knew about Yuri's sadistic nature and how he wants everything to suffer. Unlike the others, Yuri doesn't have a reason to become a Shadow Rider. He is convinced that he is plain evil.
But no one wanted to say that to his face due to him being, for the lack of the word, the scariest when dueling so they just merely tolerated him.
"I understand, and now, it is, sadly," he mumbled the last word under his breath, "Your turn. And please don't make the innocent into cards like Camula did." He pleaded as Yuri stood up, having that same sadistic smile on his face.
"No promises." he stood up and walked to the door and exited it.
Authors Note:
YES! Finally! Almost 20k words! In! A! Single! Fucking! Duel!
Hope you guys enjoyed the duel and sorry for the wait, but I have to tell you guys something first. I plan on making a What If? story with Ryoken Kogami and the Light Ignis in which is "What if Dr. Kogami ran simulations on each individual Ignis and their compatibility with humans, rather than all of them in a group?" It will take place 5 years before the actual main part of the story, and I do want to write Varis/Revolver/Ryoken duel Lightning. So this duel won't be updated for a while, since it is a Vrains story. So please subscribe to me so you will know when it is up.
This duel is easily my favourite duel I have ever written and thought about, second only to my Varis vs Light Ignis duel. Since it contains 2 fun decks to write with and 2 characters that I just love watching and reading about.
Kite Tenjo is my third favourite Rival, only behind Declan and Chazz, 2nd favourite Zexal character (Curse you Vector) and my 7th favourite Yugioh character of all time. I love everything about him. His deck, his duels, his love for his little brother, the lengths he will go through for Hart and his friends, his sacrifice for Number 100, his design and even his Arc V counterpart. I will make more of him and this isn't exactly the last time we will ever see him duel. So look forward to that.
That's right XYZ summoning is here and they will be common in Season 3 and onwards, with few characters having them in Season 2. Now I know you are confused on if I would include Synchro, Pendulums and Links? Pendulum is a HELL NO! Synchro is going to be introduced soon. Links, on the other hand, is the one I feel the most in between. I think I can make it work in Season 4…maybe.
I decided to end it in a DRAW since I think it was the best result, and my original idea of Chazz winning would be a slap to the face of the best Zexal duelist that doesn't need Zexal forms, OP XYZ summoning and Shining Draws, so I decided to make this into a DRAW.
Next up on the Shadow Rider roster is the Number 1 bastard himself, Yuri, and he is going to be a tough one to write, but I can manage if I made Armatos work decently.
I think that is all for the moment, I think I am forgetting something.
Jaden: Yeah! Maybe me dueling a Shadow Rider!
Me: Nah, you already have plenty of duels in the first 10 chapters.
Celina: Hah! Take that!
Jaden: *Drops his head as the rest of the duelists who had less duels than him smirking*
Oh yeah! I am about the last 20 episodes of Vrains and I am going to update the Card Database before Chapter 21.
That's about it. See ya later guys!
