bopdog111: Well we have a filler chapter here.

Ulrich362: True, but one that might have interesting repercussions later on.

bopdog111: Along with Jaden being Joey's son.

Ulrich362: True, so... what's going to happen here bopdog?

bopdog111: Well maybe some training with Zodiark in the form of Frisk testing it on Jaden, and maybe we see Asgore dueling himself against Papyrus?

Ulrich362: Makes sense to me, along with one other rather important detail being revealed. Enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! GX or Undertale, we just own the OCs!


It had been a few days since Frisk's unexpected duel with Joey and the reveal that he was actually Jaden's dad... though some people still were having difficulty believing it.

"No way slacker, you're joking." Chazz snapped for what felt like the hundredth time that day. "You're not related to a duelist as famous as Joey Wheeler."

"I'm not related, related, I'm just adopted." Jaden said over to Chazz.

"It's still amazing." Syrus pointed out. "Does that mean you've met Yugi Muto?"

"No, we moved a lot." Jaden admitted.

"Well, I'm sure you'll meet him one day. Especially if you study hard here." Asgore noted chuckling.

"I've already did." Jaden reached pulling out his Winged Kuriboh card. "He's who gave me my little furry friend."

"He gave you Winged Kuriboh?" Alexis asked in surprise.

"Yeah was running a little late for the exams, and I just bumped into him. He then told me something tells him the card belongs to me." Jaden answered over rubbing his head which being late like that is a classic Wheeler move to pull off which kinda proves that he is Joey's adopted son.

"Wow..." Syrus whispered.

"I'm sure he would be proud of you." Toriel smiled gently.

Jaden grinned over from this over before Serenity stood up from her seat with a smile, "Well it's great to see you again Jaden, and Frisk, but me, and Seto need to go. We managed to schedule an appointment to see how you can preform on the Advancement Exam but we are busy after that."

"Aw... ok." Frisk sighed before hugging her. "It was great to see you auntie Serenity."

Serenity hugged her back with a smile as Frisk pulled back giving hugs also to Mokuba, Yugi, and Joey while Joey grinned ruffling her head. For Kaiba, Frisk stood in front of him wondering what kind of bye she can give as she knows he isn't the type for hugs over which is a little awkward. Seeing her expression he sighed spreading his arms. "Come here Kumar."

Frisk blinked but smiled rubbing, and getting into his arms with a smile.

"Serenity, you've really mellowed out rich boy, he hugs now?" Joey teased.

"Only some people." Serenity smiled as Kaiba gave Frisk a quick squeeze before pulling back.

"I might visit the island again... I expect you to still be doing your mother proud." he told her.

Frisk nodded with a smile over from this. "I will, Uncle Seto. Tell Marek I said hi."

He nodded as they walked off.

"HUMAN FRISK, YOUR FRIENDS ARE ALMOST AS AMAZING AS YOU AND I!" Papyrus mentioned to her.

"yeah kid, they're pretty cool." Sans agreed.

Frisk turned over as she smiled over to her Monster Family. "Well there some of the greatest duelists in the world. Uncle Seto is also always Uncle Yugi's main rival for the King of Games title."

"A shame he's leaving, i was considering asking him for advice... in case we ever played together." Asgore admitted.

"Maybe next time Goat Dad." Frisk shrugged over with a smile before then blinking over. "But actually I'm the one that kinda needs advice at the moment."

"You do, what is it my child?" Toriel asked her curiously.

"This." Frisk takes out Zodiark showing it over. "I still haven't learned how to use the power it told me about."

"Well, maybe a duel will help figure it out?" Undyne suggested.

Frisk looks at the card thinking about it before then nodding firing a duel will help her figure how to use the power Zodiark told her about.

"If it's a duel I'm up for a game." Jaden grinned.

"You... want to duel me Jaden?" Frisk asked him hearing that.

"Sure, it could be fun and I'm curious what that new card of yours can do." Jaden mentioned. "It could be fun."

Frisk looked over at Zodiark before then looking up at Jaden smiled over with a small giggle. "Okay Jaden."

Jaden grinned. "This is going to be a blast."

So they all headed out in front of the Slifer Red Dorm for them to start with there friends, and Frisk's monster family watching while Sans holds Flowey for him to watch after taking a shortcut.

"Do you want to go first Frisk?" Jaden offered with a grin.

"Nah, you go on first." Frisk smiled over as they readied over.

"DUEL!"

"I change Mettaton to Defense Position." Mettaton turned around showing the switch.

Mettaton: (Defense Position)

"Then I take a monster from my Deck, and send it to my graveyard." Frisk searches her Deck before showing Undyne sending it to the graveyard.

Jaden nodded seeing that.

"Alright, makes sense to me Frisk." he smiled recognizing her move.

"After I set a card, I flip Mettaton's switch." Mettaton rolled over as she flipped it which Mettaton shook a bit before changing forms. "That way he becomes Mettaton EX!"

Metatton's EX form appears grinning over.

"And thanks to his ability as he's summoned by a Monster Effect he gains attack points from Undyne's!" Frisk, and Mettaton did some sick poses together as Mettaton powers up.

Mettaton EX: (ATK: 1000 + 1900 = 2900)

"Wait a second, wasn't he destroyed by a trap and not a monster effect?" Syrus asked seeing that. "So... his effect shouldn't activate right?"

"Flipping the Switch destroys the monster it targets at the end of the turn, and Mettaton summons his EX form if destroyed in Defense Position so the effect does activate." Bastion explained over to him.

"Oh yeah." Syrus recalled with an embarrassed blush. "My mistake."

"It's ok, it happens Sy." Jaden smiled.

Frisk's Hand: 3/Field: Mettaton EX (Attack Position/ATK: 2900), One Set Card

Jaden's Hand: 1/Field: Elemental HERO Heat (Attack Position/ATK: 1800), Mirage of Nightmare (face-up), Three Set Cards

Frisk 2nd Turn:

"Okay, my turn now!" Frisk drew at that.

Emergency Provisions

Mirage vanished as Jaden grinned.

(Jaden: 5000/Hand: 4)

Alphys rose on the field beside Mettaton.

"Hu... huh?" Alphys asked shocked. "She's playing me?"

"Looks like it." Undyne grinned.

"And with her ability until the end of your turn, Alphys gains Mettaton's strength!"

Alphys on her field glowed from some cyber enhancements in her form growing stronger.

Alphys: (ATK: 100 + 2900 = 3000)

Everyone looked stunned seeing how powerful Alphys had gotten.

"And now battle! Mettaton attack Heat!" Mettaton charged in readying some dancing kicks.

"Hold it, I play my Hero Barrier!" Jaden countered.


Hero Barrier

Normal Trap Card

Negate 1 attack from an opponent's monster. You must control a face-up "Elemental HERO" monster to resolve this effect.


"Since I have an Elemental HERO on my field this trap stops your attack!"

Mettaton's kick was blocked from the attack before moving back over beside Alphys. "That was only for one attack though! Alphys!" Alphys charged in generating some metal boxes with a proppeler on it before charging in at Heat.

"I have another trap Frisk and this one is a real nice one too, my Mirror Gate!" Jaden called playing his last set card.


Mirror Gate

"This switches our monsters during the battle!"

At that the battle flipped where Frisk is now having Heat while Jaden now has Alphys, that made the girl widen her eyes as the robots crashed into Heat destroying it while Frisk raised an arm. (Frisk: 2800/Hand: 3)

"Looks like I caught you off guard with that one Frisk." Jaden smiled.

Frisk grinned over towards him as they shifted to her Main Phase 2. "Well I end my turn." Alphys went back over to her side.

Jaden 3rd Turn:

Jaden drew his card. "Ok, two really tough monsters and I have no cards in play."

"You got a full hand though which is better then nothing." Frisk smiled over assuringly.

"True, and I have a move in mind. "I'll use Polymerization to fuse Elementa HERO Necroshade with Wildheart in order to bring out the Elemental HERO Necroid Shaman in attack position!"


Polymerization

"When Necroid Shaman is summoned I can destroy one of the mosnters on your field and summon a different monster in your graveyard so Mettaton EX, why don't we bring your first form back to the field?" Jaden grinned.

Necroid Shaman fired a blast over which destroyed Mettaton EX while his original form rose up on the field.

Metatton: (Attack Position)

"Now I'll set one card and Necroid Shaman can attack Mettaton!" Jaden called.

Necroid Shaman charged in towards Mettaton which Frisk called over. "I activate SOUL Barrier!"


SOUL Barrier

Normal Trap Card

During damage calculation involving a monster you control, and a monster your opponent controls: Reduce that battle damage to 0, then at the end of the Damage Step, Special Summon up to 5 "SOUL Tokens" (LIGHT/LV 1/Fairy/ATK 0/DEF 0) to your field in Defense Position. You can only activate 1 "SOUL Barrier" per turn.


"When damage calculation between battle is done, the damage is reduced to 0!" Necroid Shaman struck down Mettaton destroying it. "Afterward, I summon these! SOUL Tokens!"

At that four different colored energy hearts rose up in front of her.


(Defense Position)

SOUL Token

Jaden frowned seeing that. "I end my turn."

Frisk 3rd Turn:

"Okay I draw!" As she drew Alphys lost her power.

Alphys: (ATK: 3000 - 2900 = 100)

Checking over Frisk sees the card she drawn as she nodded. "Okay, I'll sacrifice one Token!" The yellow SOUL disappeared from her field. "To summon this! Dr. Gaster!"

Hands having holes on them rose up before what appeared with them was a suited skeleton having blue eyes, and cracks on his head.


(Attack Position)

Dr. Gaster

You can only activate each effect of "Dr. Gaster" per turn.


Jaden's eyes widened in shock seeing the monster. 'That thing has more points than Bladedge!'

"Don't worry you won't face him for now." Frisk smiled over before raising a card. "Cause of this!" She reveals a Polymerization of her own.

"Oh man, this isn't good." Syrus panicked seeing that. "Jaden's going to be in a lot of trouble."

Dr. Gaster on her field rose up with Chaos Necromancer, and Papyrus fusing together.

"Chaotic entity existing until the beginning of the Ancient War! Be reformed now to guide the troubled souls back to the surface to grant salvation upon them! Fusion Summon! Level 6, Zodiark, Keeper of Precepts!"

(Cue Theme: The Esper from FF12)

At that the summoning circle from her match with Chara below as Frisk raised the card she is summoning while purple energy gathered around her. Then raising behind her was Zodiark gearing for the time it's in use.


(Attack Position)

Zodiark, Keeper of Precepts

DARK

Level 6

Spirit/Effect/Fusion

ATK: 0

DEF: 0

"Chaos Necromancer" + 2 Zombie Monsters
Must be Fusion Summoned, and can't be Special Summoned by any other ways. This card is also treated as a Zombie Monster. Cannot be destroyed by battle. If this card attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage. This card gains ATK equal to the total ATK of all other DARK Monsters on the field. Once per turn, you can Tribute 1 monster you control, and if you do: Target 1 DARK Monster in either GY, Special Summon it in Defense Position but it cannot attack.


Jaden's eyes widened seeing the Esper. "Whoa, that's a whole lot of monster. What does it do?"

"Well for one he can't be destroyed in battle." Frisk raised a finger to explain with a smile. "And he gains the attack points of every other DARK monster on the field!"

Zodiark glowed over as he absorbed Alphys, and Necroid Shaman's auras.

Zodiark: (ATK: 0 + 100 + 1900 = 2000)

Jaden's eyes widened before he froze. "Wait a second, if he gains the attack of your other DARK monsters and Alphys can gain his attack points... oh man that's really bad!"

Jaden's eyes widened before he froze. "Wait a second, if he gains the attack of your other DARK monsters and Alphys can gain his attack points... oh man that's really bad!"

"And it gets more!" Zodiark glowed as a Token vanished. "By sacrificing a monster on my field, I can summon back a Dark Monster from either our graveyards in Defense Position! However the monster that's summoned from this effect is not allowed to attack. Like Mettaton EX!"

Mettaton EX rose up on the field in Defense.

Mettaton EX: (Defense Position/Cannot attack)

Zodiark: (ATK: 2000 + 1000 = 3000)

"Mettaton EX's effect!" Frisk removes Papyrus from her graveyard.

Mettaton EX: (ATK: 1000 + 1600 = 2600)

Zodiark: (ATK: 3000 + 1600 = 4600)

Jaden just stared at the field before laughing awkwardly.

'I could power up Alphys but that be too overkill...' Frisk thought over looking at Alphys. "Okay I change Alphys to Defense Position!"

Alphys knelled down from this.

Alphys: (Defense Position)

"Why do that? She can finish him off in one blow right?" Undyne asked Bastion.

"She might've figured that powering up Alphys be too overkill, and probably wants to give him a chance." Bastion admitted over to her. "Afterall duels are suppose to be for fun, and her being really aggressive will kinda kill that."

"makes sense to me." Sans grinned.

'Ok... let me think.' Jaden thought. 'I've got 5000 life points and Frisk's strongest monster is Zodiark which has 4600 points and I have Necroid Shaman with 1900 points. I can survive this turn, and even if she attacked with Mettaton EX I would have survived but I need a miracle draw.'

"And now Zodiark attack Necroid Shaman! Banish Ray!"

Crackling electricity Zodiark charged an attack over before blasting it at Necroid Shaman. Jaden cried out as his only monster shattered.

(Jaden: 3300/Hand: 0)

"Okay your move now." Frisk smiled over to him. Seeing the smile Jaden couldn't help wondering why her smile looks so deadly.

Frisk's Hand: 0/Field: Zodiark, Keeper of Precepts (Attack Position/ATK: 2700), Mettaton EX (Defense Position/Cannot attack/ATK: 2600), Royal Scientist - Alphys (Defense Position), SOUL Tokens (Defese Position) x2

Jaden: 3300

Jaden 4th Turn:

Jaden drew his card before looking and sighing. "I Special Summon Elemental HERO Bubbleman in defense position."


(Defense Position)

Elemental HERO Bubbleman

WATER

Level 4

Warrior/Effect

ATK: 800

DEF: 1200

If this is the only card in your hand, you can Special Summon it (from your hand). When this card is Summoned: You can draw 2 cards. You must control no other cards and have no cards in your hand to activate and to resolve this effect.


Frisk blinked seeing it.

"If Bubbleman is the only card in my hand I can summon him, and if I didn't have anything else in my hand or on my field I could draw two cards but well... I still have a set card so that's all I can do."

Jaden's Hand: 0/Field: Elemental HERO Bubbleman (Defense Position), One Set Card

Frisk 4th Turn:

"Okay, draw!" Frisk drew looking. "And this time I use Alphys' ability!"

Alphys glowed a bit powering her, and Zodiark.

Alphys: (ATK: 100 + 2600 = 2700)

Zodiark: (ATK: 2700 + 2600 = 5300)

Seeing that Jaden sighed before looking at Frisk with a grin. "We need to have a rematch, and next time I'll take Zodiark down."

Frisk nodded before calling over. "And now Zodiark, Banish Ray!" Zodiark's eyes glowed firing a blast. "And as Zodiark is battling a monster in Defense Position, you take piercing damage!"

Jaden braced himself as Bubbleman shattered wiping out the last of his life points before out of curiosity he drew two cards before pausing and drawing another two. "Oh man, well that's how it goes I guess."


Frisk: 2800

Hand: 1

Field: Zodiark, Keeper of Precepts (Attack Position/ATK: 5600), Mettaton EX (Defense Position/Cannot attack/ATK: 2600), Royal Scientist - Alphys (Defense Position/ATK: 2700), SOUL Tokens (Defese Position) x2

Jaden: 0000

Hand: 0

Field: One Set Card

Frisk wins!


"What was your set card?" Frisk asked him as the cards with the exception of Zodiark vanished.

"Hero Spirit." Jaden answered showing her the card.


Hero Spirit

Normal Trap Card

During the Battle Phase, if an "Elemental HERO" monster you controlled was destroyed by battle this turn: Make the Battle Damage from 1 of your opponent's monsters 0.


"If you attacked Necroid Shaman with Alphys I could have used this to block Zodiark's attack and then I might have been able to turn the duel around." Jaden explained.

"Well guess me not being aggressive like that came in handy." Frisk gave a small giggle seeing that before sensing something seeing Zodiark is behind her still not disappearing.

"Wait, the duel is over so why isn't your monster gone?" Alexis asked Frisk seeing that.

"I am not any monster." Zodiark suddenly spoke up. "I am a servant of my master who awakened me from my eternal slumber."

"It can talk?" Syrus cried in shock.

"Frisk just what kind of creature is this?" Bastion asked her.

"I don't know at all honesty..." Frisk admitted over as she stared at Zodiark. "All I know so far is that he is something called... an Esper." She then remembered over else what he told her. "One of Seven cards that can grant special abilities to who uses them. I am capable of using dark magic cause of him but I haven't tried yet."

"Dark Magic?" Alexis asked in shock.

"Wait, you mean like Yugi did with the Millennium Items and the Shadow Games?" Jaden questioned with wide eyes.

"I don't know." Frisk admitted over. "There is still so many things I don't know about these 'Espers'."

"Well, what powers does Frisk possess?" Toriel inquired to Zodiark. "They aren't dangerous are they?"

"She is capable of controlling the shadows, darken areas around her, using the powers of darkness for combat, corrupting or purifying SOULs, and even bring back the dead." Zodiark listed over the things Frisk can now do. "Within time, she can unlock my true form."

Everyone looked stunned hearing that as Frisk looked at her hands. "I... I can do all of that? But I don't know how to do any of it."

Chazz however who did enjoy seeing Jaden lose was getting annoyed at everything this new card could do and so he turned and stormed off.

"Chazz where you going!?" Jaden noticing him storming off looking irritated quickly gets up to stop him. "This is something we all need to hear!" He reaches his hand to take Chazz's shoulder as he said this.

"Get off me slacker!" Chazz snapped swinging his arm back as there was a crack and Jaden was sent flying back a bit with a small cut on his face.

Everyone looked over from this, and widen there eyes seeing what's on Chazz as Jaden slowly rose up with a bleeding cheek looking up, and his eyes widen from what he's seeing.

"What?" Chazz questioned not having noticed as he glared at them.

"Chazz... are what those?" He sees Jaden is staring at his arms.

Confused Chazz looked only to see purple dragon claws over his own arms. "What the hell!? What's happening, what did you do to me!?"

He glared at Zodiark. "Get rid of these things!"

"It is your own doing." Zodiark stated over towards him not bothered from the disrespect. "It is the power from your SOUL."

"What are you talking about, what about my soul?" Chazz questioned as the claws faded.

"The magic from your SOUL." he turned where Asgore walked over. "Your now capable to use magic apparently."

"Right, next you'll say I'm secretly the king of Monster Kind and you all want to bow down to me. Yeah right." Chazz rolled his eyes.

"I haven't seen magic from humans like you have in a while." Asgore stated over to him. "But why dragon claws?"

"How am I supposed to know?" Chazz snapped a bit too quickly.

"You made that call a bit too quick." Jaden admitted over.

Asgore then closed his eyes then looked at Chazz. "Then perhaps you will tell us if we duel?"

"Excuse me, you're challenging me?" Chazz questioned at that. "Do you even know how to duel?"

Asgore only formed a Duel Disk from his magic. "You seen Tori, Sans, and Mettaton. Frisk had been teaching us."

Chazz flinched but activated his Duel Disk. "Fine, what are your terms for this match then?"

"We help you train on your magic, and you tell us what the dragon claws are about if I win." Asgore said over to him.

"But what happens if I beat you?" Chazz asked him.

"We will leave you alone." Asgore answered.

"Fine." Chazz smirked at that. "I beat Frisk so beating you won't be hard at all."

With that the two readied over.

"DUEL!"


(Dueling Theme: ASGORE)

Asgore: 4000

Asgore 1st Turn:

"Then I draw." Asgore drew checking.

'Play whatever you want, this duel won't take any time at all.' Chazz thought with a smirk.

What rose up in the same monster's place was a white ice armored warrior having a large blue cape, and some ice on his armor.

Mobius generated a frost storm firing it at Chazz's face-downs. Two of them froze before shattering. "No way!"

"When Mobius is Tribute Summoned, two of your Spells and Traps are destroyed." Asgore then made his move. "Now Mobius attack with Ice Lance!" Mobius charged a attack made of ice firing it at Chthonian Soldier.

Chazz cried out as his monster shattered but Chthonian Soldier's blade flew up before striking Asgore.

(Chazz: 2800/Hand: 1)

(Asgore: 2800/Hand: 4)

Asgore winced over before shaking his head setting a card. "I place a face-down, and end my turn."

"Whoa, Goat Dad is amazing." Frisk said in awe.

Field: One Set Card


Chazz 2nd Turn:

Chazz drew his card. "I play Pot of Greed!"


Pot of Greed

Normal Spell Card

Draw 2 Cards.


"This lets me draw two more cards from my deck."

Chazz drew twice as he looked at them as Asgore watches on. "Just what I was hoping to see, you're finished. I use my Call of the Haunted Trap card!"


(face-up)

Call of the Haunted

Continuous Trap Card

Activate this card by targeting 1 monster in your GY; Special Summon that target in Attack Position. When this card leaves the field, destroy that monster. When that monster is destroyed, destroy this card.


"This brings my Chthonian Soldier back for round two, and he's not alone because I'll use Inferno Reckless Summon to bring out two more soldiers."

Chthonian Soldier: (Attack Position)


Inferno Reckless Summon

Quick-Play Spell Card

When exactly 1 monster with 1500 or less ATK is Special Summoned to your field while your opponent controls a face-up monster: Special Summon as many monsters as possible with the same name as the Summoned monster, from your hand, Deck, and Graveyard, in Attack Position, also your opponent Special Summons as many monsters as possible with the same name as 1 of their face-up monsters, from their hand, Deck, and Graveyard.


"This brings out two more soldiers from my deck, of course you can bring out any other copies of your monster assuming you have any."

"I only have one Mobius." Asgore told him.

"Well tough luck because I use the spell Chthonian Alliance." Chazz revealed playing the spell.


(Equipped to Chthonian Soldier)

Chthonian Alliance

Equip Spell Card

The equipped monster gains 800 ATK for each other face-up monster on the field that has the same name it does.


"By equipping it to my soldier it gains 800 points for every monster with the same name."

One Soldier powered up as it roared loud.

Chthonian Soldier: (ATK: 1200 + (800 * 2) = 2800/Equipped with Chthonian Alliance)

"Now, my strongest Soldier will destroy your monarch." Chazz called.

The Soldier roared loud giving a great swinging slash slicing through Mobius destroying it as Asgore raised his arm. (Asgore: 2400/Hand: 3)

"Now my other two Soldiers will finish this duel, attack!" Chazz called.

The Soldiers charged but Asgore called over. "I activate The First Monarch!"


The First Monarch

Continuous Trap Card

Special Summon this card as an Effect Monster (Fiend/DARK/Level 6/ATK 1000/DEF 2400). (This card is also still a Trap.) If Summoned this way: You can discard 1 card, then declare 1 Attribute; this card becomes that Attribute, and can be treated as 2 Tributes for the Tribute Summon of a monster with the same Attribute as this card. If this card was Summoned this way, you cannot Special Summon monsters, except monsters with this card's Attribute.


"It summons itself as a monster!" A monarch appeared forcing the solders back.

The First Monarch: (Defense Position/DARK/LV 6/Fiend/ATK: 1000/DEF: 2400)

"You have a new monster so I'll call of my attack and end my turn." Chazz frowned.

Chazz's Hand: 0/Field: Chthonian Soldier (Attack Position/ATK: 2800/Equipped with Chthonian Alliance/Call of the Haunted), Chthonian Soldier X2 (Attack Position), Chthonian Alliance (Equipped to Chthonian Soldier), Call of the Haunted (Chthonian Soldier)

Asgore 2nd Turn:

"Okay turn, I draw!" Asgore drew checking his hand.

"Just surrender, your monster is too weak to do anything and you can't possibly win the duel anymore." Chazz told him.

"In fact... what I have is good by itself." Asgore said over to him.

"What?" Chazz questioned.

"If I sacrifice First Monarch to summon a monster with the same Attribute it counts as two." Asgore pointed out. "So I sacrifice First Monarch, and summon this! Caius the Mega Monarch!"

At that raising up in First Monarch's spot was a large fiendish ruler with a ripped tattered cape, and a chilling grin.


(Attack Position)

Caius the Mega Monarch

DARK

Level 8

Fiend/Effect

ATK: 2800

DEF: 1000

You can Tribute Summon this card by Tributing 1 Tribute Summoned monster. If this card is Tribute Summoned: Target 1 card on the field; banish it, and if you do, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent, then, if it is a DARK Monster Card, banish all cards with that name from the hand, Main Deck, Extra Deck, and GY of the player who controlled it. If this card was Tribute Summoned by Tributing a DARK monster, add this additional effect.
● You can target 2 cards, instead.


"It's as powerful as my Soldier!" Chazz cried in shock.

"Not for long. As I summoned Caius by Tributing a DARK monster, I can banish 2 cards on your field, and deal you 1000 points of damage." Asgore said over to him. "If any of the cards are a DARK monster, you must banish a copy of that card from your hand, Deck, Extra Deck, or graveyard." Caius charged energy before releasing two dark prisons surrounding the soldiers that don't have Alliance on them.

"What!?" Chazz questioned in shock.

The two soldiers were lowered before a wave of pressure built around Chazz.

He cried out at that.

(Chazz: 1800/Hand: 0)

Chthonian Soldier: (ATK: 2800 - (800 * 2) = 1200)

"Now Caius attack!" Caius charged a dark blast firing it at the last soldier.

Chazz braced himself as Chthonian Soldier and Call of the Haunted both shattered but the blade hit Asgore again.

(Chazz: 0200/Hand: 0)

(Asgore: 1200/Hand: 3)

Asgore still had one last trick. "Alright... I place 1 card down, and end my turn."

Asgore's Hand: 2/Field: Caius the Mega Monarch (Attack Position), One Set Card


Asgore: 1200

Hand: 2

Field: Caius the Mega Monarch (Attack Position), One Set Card

Chazz: 0200

Hand: 0

Field: Nothing


Chazz 3rd Turn:

Chazz glared at Asgore. "I'm not about to let some overgrown goat beat me! I draw!"

Chazz angrily drew his card before looking at it as a smirk appeared on his face.

"I play Change of Heart!"


Change of Heart

Normal Spell Card

Target 1 monster your opponent controls; take control of it until the End Phase.


"This spell takes control of Caius for one turn."

Caius glowed over from this but Asgore called. "I activate The Monarchs Awaken!"


The Monarchs Awaken

Normal Trap Card

If you have no cards in your Extra Deck: Target 1 face-up Tribute Summoned monster you control; its effects are negated, also it is unaffected by the effects of cards other than this card.


"1 Tribute Summoned monster on the field has it's effects negated for this turn only!"

Caius lost it's glow.

Caius the Mega Monarch: (Effects Negated/Unaffected to other card effects)

"What's the point of that?" Chazz questioned. "All I need are his attack points and..."

Suddenly he paused seeing Change of Heart wasn't working.

"What's going on?"

"Monarchs Awaken also makes the monster it's effect grabs hold of to be unaffected to other cards." Bastion remembering the trap explained what is going on. "As Monarchs use there effects when there summoned, the effect negation effect has no value while the true thing it's for is to make it immune to other effects."

"So does that mean, Change of Heart resolves without effect?" Frisk asked hearing that quickly realizing what that meant.

"It means more than that Frisk, with Change of Heart unable to affect Caius the Mega Monarch Chazz has no cards in his hand or on his field." Alexis confirmed.

"No... no way, this isn't happening!" Chazz cried in shock.

Chazz's Hand: 0/Field: Nothing

Asgore 3rd Turn:

"My turn draw!" Asgore drew but didn't look. "Caius attack him directly!" Caius charged another blast firing it at Chazz.

Chazz cried out as the blast hit him causing a massive explosion as he knelt in defeat.


Asgore: 1200

Hand: 3

Field: Caius the Mega Monarch (Attack Position)

Chazz: 0000

Hand: 0

Field: Nothing

Asgore wins!


"Goat Dad did it!" Frisk cheered over running over.

"It was thanks to your help Frisk." he smiled hugging her tightly.

Frisk giggled over as they hugged over while some smiled for this family moment. Frisk then looked over towards Chazz. He looked really angry. Frisk stopped walking over, and stopped in front of him. "Chazz..."

"What do you want?" he questioned as he got up to walk off again.

She softly take his arm saying over. "Chazz, I'm worried about you... don't let this loss get to you."

"I don't need your pity." He pulled his arm away.

"Chazz, you lost the duel remember?" Alexis pointed out. "That means you let them help with your magic and tell us why you had dragon claws."

"Yeah that's what you agreed too." Syrus voiced over too.

"I don't remember saying I'd do that." Chazz told them.

"We help you train on your magic, and you tell us what the dragon claws are about if I win."

"But what happens if I beat you?"

"We will leave you alone."

"Fine. I beat Frisk so beating you won't be hard at all."

Everyone looked at Mettaton who seemed to be playing an audio recording from this as he shrugged. "Never hurts to have something recording when it comes in handy."

Chazz clenched his fists. "Fine, if you must know I have no idea... I threw those dragons away when I got here."

"Threw them away?" Frisk cupped her mouth in horror. "Why?"

"I don't need them, I'm strong enough on my own." Chazz answered. "I left them buried in the ground, I'll be the next king of games without them."

"But Chazz you can't just abandon them! There a part of you!" Jaden argured over to him.

What would you know slacker?" Chazz snapped at him. "They're gone, I don't need them anymore."

"Is that true though?" Toriel asked him. "Is it worth becoming a champion if you had to abandon your friends?"

Chazz grunted looking down with clench hands as Frisk places her hands close to her chest. "Chazz... nothing is worth anything if you leave your friends behind."

"Where are they buried punk?" Undyne asked him.

They waited on as he stayed silent before turning away walking off from this which basically tells them to follow him. The group all followed him as Zodiark watched before fading. Eventually they arrived at a spot where a spot looked buried a sometime ago.

"Here, buried where they're going to stay." Chazz told them. "Now, make it quick how do I control these dragon claws so I can be done with our deal?"

Frisk knelled down placing a hand on the spot with slight tears. Seeing that Papyrus hugged her.

"EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT HUMAN FRISK!" he told her.

Frisk closed her eyes before turning to Chazz. "Chazz please... take them back."

He froze at that. "Why should I?"

"There your friends Chazz. No reward is worth anything if you leave them behind, you will just be alone." Frisk answered with tears in her eyes.

Chazz flinched at that before seeing everyone staring at him.

"Fine! I get it already." he snapped walking over and digging out a small box before opening it as his eyes widened taking the top card.

It was a card he haven't seen these passed few weeks staring over reading the name, Light and Darkness Dragon. Then an affectionate roar echoed over to his mind.

He gasped at that before looking down. 'What about the other two?'

(A/N (Ulrich362): If you remember the original version of this fic... let's just say we're going to pull a plot point from Arc-V in the second year.)

He checks over the Deck. Looking at the cards he closed his eyes.


Ulrich362: A bit short, but Frisk managed to test out Zodiark and Chazz can apparently use Perseverance Magic and reclaimed an old deck he buried when he first arrived at Duel Academy.

bopdog111: Well Ulrich you should ask me length more before saying it's short cause it's over 7000 words.

Ulrich362: It felt a lot shorter than that... though with that said, next up I think it's time to reveal what Papyrus is capable of... and maybe Toriel's first class? Starting of course with the war?

bopdog111: Yeah, and maybe we get back to canon after that class. Or at least a small part of it.

Ulrich362: Sounds good to me, see you in the next chapter.
