"Yuzu! Please wake up, Yuzu!"

The pink haired girl slowly opened her eyes in response to the cries. She saw Yuya holding her as she layer on the ground.

"Yuya..." Yuzu uttered.

"Yuzu!" Yuya said in happiness as he pulled her in for a long hug. After the hug broke, Yuya helped the girl up and they both walked over to Yugo, Gongenzaka, and a weak Yuto.

"YUZU!" Gongenzaka yelled as tears comically shot out of his eyes before pulling her and Yuya into a huge hug.

"Gong...we can't breathe..." Yuya uttered.

"Sorry...I'm happy you are ok. After that bright light, I thought you were taken away." Gongenzaka said.

"Well now we are all together now." Yuto said.

"Yeah, I thought we would never find you guys the way things were going." Yugo added on.

"Thanks, Dennis. Without you, we might have not found Yuzu and Yuto." Yuya said.

"No problem. That's what friends are for." Dennis said. On the outside, he was fine. But on the inside, he was extremely confused. 'What happend?! I know Yuri was sent back to Academia via Force Return Protocol. He was going to win that duel too! What in the world is going on...'

"Anyways, we should probably regroup back with the other participants." Yuto said.

"That's a great idea! I'll go try to find the some other participants as well. It's probably a good idea if I branch off from you guys." Dennis said.

"Why is that? We should stick together." Yugo responded.

"The way I see it, three of you are pretty injured. That means we might be held back a bit. I'm an entertainment duelist so I will be able to move through the field pretty quickly. As their friends, I'm sure you two will want to stick with the injured." Dennis explained.

"Hey! Don't treat me like a liability!" Yugo shouted.

"No Yugo, he does have a point. Dennis, please be safe. If you encounter the Obelisk Force, please don't try to duel them alone." Yuya pleaded.

"Don't worry about me! I'll be fine!" Dennis said before running off. As they waved to him, Yuto looked at him with a bit of suspicion.

"Anyways, we should probably get moving. Can you walk, Yuzu? Yuto?" Yuya asked.

"I'm ok." Yuto said through his pain.

"I can walk. I actually don't even feel that bad anymore. After fainting...I actually feel pretty good." Yuzu responded.

"Well that's a relief." Yuya said.

"Let's get going-" Gongenzaka was about to say before the sound of three duel disks activated.

"What?!" Yugo said as the teens turned around to see 4 Obelisk Force soldiers standing behind them.

"You guys...you guys stand back! I, the man Gongenzaka will hold them off while you escape!" Gongenzaka said stepping in front of his friends.

"I'm dueling too!" Yuya said stepping up as well.

"Let us take care of them." A female voice said as 4 teens jumped down from the icy mountain and landed infront of the 5 teens.

"Masumi!" Yuzu exclaimed.

"Hokuto...!" Yuto said.

"Yaiba!" Gongenzaka said.

"Roy!" Yugo said surprised.

"What are you 4 doing here?" Yuya asked.

"Akaba Reiji asked us to help you guys. Let us take care of these guys." Masumi said.

"Thanks you guys. See you soon!" Yuzu said as the 5 ran off.


Volcano Area

The 5 duelist continued to run in a straight path that was once a street until they got to a big opening. As they stepped out, they saw 2 duels taking place.

"Look up there! That's Michio and Teppei!" Yuya said.

"Is that the girl that looks like Yuzu from Fusion too?" Yugo asked surprised that the girl was actually fighting the Obelisk Force.

"Yeah, that's Serena! And that's the Ninja that helped me out earlier too. And isn't that..." Yuzu began to say.

"That's Shun!" Yuto said.

"Wait..." Yuya said as he noticed that Sora was dueling another ninja and he had just defeated him. "SORA!"

Sora didn't even look at the group as he walked over to the duelist.

"Don't do it, Sora!" Yuzu pleaded now seeing her former mentor.

Sora ignored his students words and hit a button on his duel disk which caused a bright light to envelop the ninja. When the bright light faded, a card was where the duelist once was. At the same time, Michio and Teppei were also carded.

Yuya's eyes widened as he saw Shun, Serena, and Tsukikage struggling while his former friend pick up the card before starting to walk away. His heart began beating quickly as his eyes began glowing red. Suddenly, something in his mind snapped as he began to scream in rage. "RAAAAAHHH!"

"Yuya!" Yuzu said in concern.

Before anyone could make it to Yuya. He ran and jumped over the lake of lava and landed right next to Sora.

"SORA!"

"Oh, it's you." Sora said.

"Sora...! How dare you!" Yuya shouted which didn't faze Sora at all.

"Yuya! Calm down! Remember our promise! Don't lose yourself!" Yuzu shouted causing Yuya to flinch.

'I won't lose control! I'll make Sora see what he is doing is wrong!' Yuya thought to himself as his hair and eyes slowly turned back to normal.

"Sora. Duel me." Yuya said as he stared at his former friend.

"Fine. I don't like having a losing record against you anyways." Sora said as the two of them began to walk away.

"You guys stay here! I'll go help them out!" Gongenzaka said before running over to a bridge that lead to the other duelists.

"What about us?" Yugo said. "I wanted to duel those Academia guys."

"That can be arranged." A voice coming from behind them said.

"Who's there!" Yuto shouted as the three turned around.

They saw three figures walking towards them. One was a man with a long black jacket that also had turquoise hair. The second was a teen with black spiky hair and a obelisk blue jacket. The last was another teen with a dark blue sleeveless jacket along with a black shirt underneath.

"You guys are from Academia, aren't you?!" Yuzu shouted.

"Correct, Yuzu Hiragi." The one with the sleeveless jacket said. "My name is Johan. Since Yuri was sent back to Academia and is currently unconscious, I was sent to capture you."

"That will never happen!" Yugo shouted protectively stepping in front of the girl.

"You won't be interfering, because I, Manjoume was sent here to defeat you." The Obelisk Blue said.

"You guys aren't taking us on together?" Yuzu asked.

"We aren't like those weak Obelisk Force." Johan said.

"...I know who you are..." Yuto said looking at the man.

"I would assume anyone from Xyz would know me." The man said.

"You are the Hell Kaiser! You carded so many of my friends and comrades! I'm going to duel you and make you pay!" Yuto shouted with faintly glowing eyes.

"Then let's get going." Kaiser said leading Yuto to where they would duel as Yuto followed.

"Yuto...be careful." Yuzu said to the Xyz remnant who nodded back.

"You sure you want to take this guy on, Yuzu?" Yugo asked. He was more than happy to take both on himself.

"Yeah, I am not going to be a damsel in distress! I may have lost to Yuri...but I swear I won't lose again!" Yuzu said with confidence.

"Alright then. Good luck." Yugo said as he and Manjoume walked to the right while Johan and her walked to the left.

"DUEL!"

MANJOUME: 4000 LP vs YUGO: 4000 LP

"My turn! I summon the Union monster, X-Head Cannon!" Manjoume shouted as the blue war machine appeared.

X-Head Cannon (1800/1500) LVL:4

"Union?" Yugo said.

"Next I activate the Continuous Spell Frontline Base! Now once per turn, I can special summon a level 4 or lower Union monster. So I summon Y-Dragon Head!" Manjoume shouted as the red mechanical dragon appeared.

Y-Dragon Head (1500/1600) LVL:4

"Next I set one card facedown. Turn end." Manjoume concluded.

"Let's go! My turn, draw! Alright! With the Scale 1 Speedroid Marble Machine and the Scale 8 Speedroid Domino Butterfly, I set the Pendulum Scale!" Yugo shouted as the two Speedroid rose in the blue columns.

Marble Machine 1 - 8 Domino Butterfly

"With this, I can simultaneously summon monsters with levels 2 through 7! Swing Pendulum of Speed! Draw an arc across the wind and soar through the field! Pendulum Summon! From my hand, Speedroid Passenglider!" Yugo shouted as a large blue plain like monster appeared on his field.

Speedroid Passenglider (2200/2000) LVL:5 PS:3

"So this is Pendulum Summoning. Even if you can use such a method, it doesn't matter!" Manjoume shouted.

"We'll see about that, Battle! Speedroid Passenglider attack X-Head Cannon!" Yugo commanded his monster as it charged through the union monster causing a minor shockwave that made Manjoume flinch.

MANJOUME: 4000-3600 LP

"Continuous Trap Activate! Call of the Living Dead! Revive, X-Head Cannon!" Manjoume shouted as the monster reappeared.

"Damn, I set one card face down, turn end." Yugo said as his monster returned to his side.

"My turn! I activate the spell card Pot of Greed! I draw 2 cards! It's time to show you the true power of Union monsters! I summon the Union monster, Z-Metal Tank!" Manjoume yelled as a yellow tank appeared.

Z-Metal Tank (1500/1300) LVL:4

"And now, since I have X-Head Cannon, Y-Dragon Head, and Z-Metal Tank on my field, I can banish them in order summon a Fusion Monster from my extra deck! Combine my monsters!" Manjoume shouted as the three monsters flew up in the air.

"What?!" Yugo yelled.

"Combination Fusion! Come forth! Level 8! XYZ- Dragon Cannon!" Manjoume shouted as the combined form of the three monsters appeared.

XYZ-Dragon Cannon (2800/2600) LVL:8

"Dragon Cannon's effect! By discarding a card, I can destroy your Passenglider!" Manjoume shouted as the monster shot a blast from it's arm cannons that destroyed the Pendulum Monster.

"Damn it..." Yugo said.

"I'm now done! I activate the spell card Silent Doom! I can summon a normal monster in my graveyard and it can't attack so I'll summon the Union monster, V-Tiger Jet!" Manjoume shouted as his tiger like her appeared.

V-Tiger Jet (1600/1800) LVL:4

"Frontline Base's effect! I special the Union monster, W-Wing Catapult!" Manjoume yelled as another blue machine monster appeared.

W-Wing Catapult (1300/1500) LVL:4

"Next, I combine V-Tiger Jet and W-Wing Catapult! Combination Fusion! Come forth! Level 6! VW-Tiger Catapult!" Manjoume yelled as the two monsters flew into the air and combined.

VW-Tiger Catapult (2000/2100) LVL:6

"Another one...?" Yugo said. 'Even though he had enough fire power to wipe me out, my Mirror Force will destroy both of his monsters and then next turn I'll-' Yugo's thought was interrupted by Manjoume.

"Let's go! I now combine VW-Tiger Catapult with XYZ-Dragon Cannon!" Manjoume shouted as the two monsters flew into the air. "Combination Fusion! Come forth! Level 8! VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon!" A new monster appeared which was a combination of the two monsters.

VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon (3000/2800) LVL:8

"What? You could have finished me off!" Yugo shouted.

"Hehehe...you really think I'm a fool! I know you are planning something with that face down! Dragon Catapult Cannon's effect! Once per turn, I can target a card on your field and banish it! I banish your facedown!" Manjoume shouted as his monster shot a blast destroying the facedown which revealed to be mirror force.

"Mirror Force, eh? Good thing I'm such a smart duelist." Manjoume complimented his self.

"That means..."

"Battle! VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon, Direct Attack! V to Z Ultimate Destruction!" Manjoume shouted as his monster the monster's cannons and the dragon head shot a blue blast that hit Yugo causing him to be sent flying through the air.

YUGO: 4000-1000 LP

"Gah!" Yugo shouted as he hit the ground hard.

"Heh, just a little bit more and you'll be two dimensional! That means you'll be a card."

"I-I know that! Don't treat me like an idiot!" Yugo retorted.

"Hehehe. My turn is over." Manjoume laughed.

"My turn! I'll shut you up with this! With the already set pendulum scale, I Pendulum Summon! From my extra deck, Speedroid Passenglider!" Yugo shouted as the blue plane reappeared.

"What's that weak monster going to do?" Manjoume taunted.

"Just watch. I activate the Spell Card Pendulum Synchro! I can now conduct a Synchro Summon using monsters on my field and in my pendulum zone! I'll use my tuner Domino Butterfly from my pendulum zone! I tune my level 2 Domino Butterfly with my level 5 Passenglider! Spread those wondrous and beautiful wings and strike down our enemies at light speed! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 7! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon!" Yugo shouted as his ace dragon flew through the air before descending to his side.

Clear Wing Synchro Dragon (2500/2000) LVL:7

"Cool dragon and all, but it's far to weak." Manjoume said.

"Don't call my dragon weak you jerk! Turn end." Yugo said.

"That's it? My turn! I activate Dragon Catapult Cannon's effect! I banish your precious dragon!" Manjoume shouted.

"Heh." Yugo let out a small laugh as he smirked.

"What?!"

"I activate Clear Wing's effect! When a level 5 or higher monster activates a card effect, it's negated and destroyed while a Clear Wing gains that monster's ATK! Dichroic Mirror!"

Clear Wing (2500/2000)-(5500/2000)

"No way..." Manjoume said.

"I told you my dragon wasn't weak!" Yugo shouted.

"What ever. I have plenty more tricks up my sleeve. I set one card. Turn end." Manjoume said.

Clear Wing (5500/2000)-(2500/2000)

"My turn! Let's go! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, Direct Attack! Whirlwind Helldive Slasher!" Yugo shouted as his monster became surrounded by green energy as it flew through the air.

"Continuous Trap Activate! Direct Border! This card prevents any monster with 1000 or higher ATK from attacking directly! So your dragon won't be attacking me!" Manjoume countered as the Synchro Dragon returned to Yugo's side.

"Grr, I set one card face down. Turn End." Yugo said.

"My turn, draw!" Chazz said looking at his card. "I set one card. Turn end."

"My turn! Since I can't do anything, Turn end." Yugo said.

"My turn. I...am forced to end my turn as well." Manjoume concluded.

"My turn! I reset the Pendulum Scale with the Scale 6 Speedroid Hexasaucer!" Yugo shouted.

Marble Machine 1 - 6 Hexasaucer

"With this, I can simultaneously summon monsters with levels 2 through 5! Pendulum Summon! Returning from the extra deck, Speedroid Passenglider and the tuner monster, Speedroid Domino Butterfly!" Yugo shouted as the two monsters appeared.

Speedroid Passenglider (2200/2000)LVL:5 PS:3/3

Speedroid Domino Butterfly (100/300)LVL:2 PS:8/8

"Battle! Domino Butterfly, direct attack!" Yugo shouted as his monster charged at Manjoume barely tapping him.

MANJOUME: 3600-3500 LP

"Thanks to the effect of Direct Border, when I take damage from a direct attack made by a monster with less than 1000 ATK, I can draw a card." Manjoume smiled as he drew.

"Since the battle phase is over, I tune the level 2 Domino Butterfly with the level 5 Passenglider! White dragon with shinning wings! Smash through our enemies and soar through the battle field at the speed of light! Synchro Summon! Come Forth! Level 7! Clear Wing Fast Dragon!" Yugo yelled as his Synchro Pendulum monster flew through the air before flying beside the Synchro Dragon and Yugo.

Clear Wing Fast Dragon (2500/2000) LVL:7 PS:4/4

"It looks like you got twins over there." Manjoume commented.

"Since Domino Butterfly was used as Synchro material after being summoned from the extra deck, it is banished. Turn end." Yugo concluded.

"My turn. I set another card face down, turn end." Manjoume said as another card materialized next to his previous face down.

"Stop stalling god dammit! My turn! With the already set scale, Pendulum Summon! From the extra deck, Speedroid Passenglider once more!" Yugo shouted.

Speedroid Passenglider (2200/2000)LVL:5 PS:3/3

"Next I summon Speedroid Three-Eyed Dice!" Yugo shouted

Speedroid Three-Eyed Dice (300/1500) LVL:3

"Battle! I attack you directly with Three-Eyed Dice!" Yugo shouted.

"I activate the Trap Card Ojama Magnet! I special summon Ojama Yellow from my hand in ATK mode and the attack is redirected to it instead. Also, I take no damage." Manjoume said.

Ojama Yellow (0/1000) LVL:2

"Ojama...? No matter! Take it out Three-Eyed Dice!" Yugo shouted as his monster went through the small yellow monster.

"Just as I planned! Trap Activate! Ojamable! Since a face up Ojama was destroyed, I can return the destroyed monster to my deck. Then I can draw 2 cards and discard 1." Manjoume said as he drew and discarded.

"So that's what you were going for." Yugo said.

"I'm not done! The card that was sent to the graveyard was the spell Ojamagic! When sent to the graveyard, I can add my Ojama Trio to my hand!" Manjoume said as 3 cards popped out of his deck.

"More of those monsters, eh?" Yugo asked.

"Hurry up and end your turn!" Manjoume I patiently yelled.

"Fine. Turn end." Yugo concluded.

"My turn! It's time for my counter attack! I activate the spell card Magic Mallet! By shuffling this card and any amount of cards in my hand to my deck, I can draw that same amount! I return Magic Mallet and 4 out of my 5 cards in my hand in order 5 cards!" Manjoume shouted as he know had 6 cards in his hand.

"Damn, now he's got a fresh hand." Yugo said.

"Next I activate the spell card Level Down! I can reveal a LV monster in my hand and reduce it's level by two. I reveal Armed Dragon LV5!" Manjome said revealing the LV monster.

"A LV monster...what is that?" Yugo asked.

"Watch and find out! I summon the now level 3 Armed Dragon LV5!" Manjoume said as a red and dark brown dragon with multiple silver spikes on it's body appeared.

Armed Dragon LV5 (2400/1000) LVL:5-3

"Next I equip my dragon with the Equip Spell Dragon's Veil!" Manjoume shouted as a red aura surrounded the dragon.

'When he attacks, I'll use Fast Dragon's effect to change his monster's ATK to 0 and then he'll take some serious damage!' Yugo thought. "Due to the effect of Passenglider, you can't attack any other Speedroid monster on my field besides this one."

"Battle! Armed Dragon LV5, Attack Passenglider!" Manjoume shouted as his dragon flew towards the monster.

"Clear Wing Fast Dragon's effect-"

"It won't work! Dragon's Veil makes my monster immune to being targeted by your card effects!" Manjoume countered.

"What?!" Yugo exclaimed.

The dragon punched the plane causing an explosion that made Yugo flinch.

YUGO: 1000-800 LP

"Next I activate the Quick Play Spell Cyclone! I destroy your Hexasaucer in your Pendulum Zone! I set two cards face down. Turn end. At this moment, the effect of LV5 activates! Since it destroyed a monster this turn, I can release it and special summon Armed Dragon LV7!" Manjoume shouted as the evolved form of the previous dragon appeared.

Armed Dragon LV7 (2800/1000) LVL:7

"It's stronger than my dragons!" Yugo said with a worried tone.

"Also, during the end phase of the turn where Dragon's Veil was sent to the graveyard, I can equip it to a new dragon on my field, like LV7!" Manjoume explained as the red aura enveloped his dragon.

"My turn!" Yugo shouted as he drew. "I don't need to weaken your dragon to beat it! I summon Speedroid Beigomax!" Yugo said.

Speedroid Beigomax (1200/600) LVL:3

"Next, I tune the level 3 Three-Eyes Dice to the level 3 Beigomax! Magical sword with the form of a cross. Use your power to rend all enemies! Synchro Summon! Appear now! Level 6! High-Speedroid Makendama!" Yugo shouted.

High-Speedroid Makendama (2200/1600) LVL:6

"Next is Makendama's effect! By banishing a Beigomax, I can deal you 500 points of damage! But then I activate Clear Wing Synchro Dragon's effect! Makendama's effect is negated and it is also destroyed and Clear Wing gains's it's ATK! Dichroic Mirror!" Yugo shouted.

Clear Wing (2500/2000)-(4700/2000)

"What?!"

"Battle! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon Attack Armed Dragon LV7! Whirlwind Helldive Slasher!" Yugo commanded his ace.

"Trap Activate! Level Soul! By releasing a monster and banishing another LV monster, I can special summon a LV monster listed in the text of the banished monster from my deck! Since I banished Armed Dragon LV 5, I special summon another copy of LV7 from my deck in defense mode!" Manjoume countered.

Armed Dragon LV7 (2800/1000) LVL:7

"Then destroy that dragon!" Yugo shouted as the dragon surrounded by green energy smashed through the dragon causing a explosion.

"Since I still can't attack directly, I end my turn." Yugo concluded.

"My turn! I activate the spell card Pot of Greed! I draw 2 cards!" Manjoume shouted as he drew. "Trap Activate! Level Modulation! You get to draw 2 cards. But in exchange, I get to summon a LV monster with it's effects negated from my graveyard! Come back, Armed Dragon LV7!"

"That dragon again..." Yugo said.

"Don't worry, it won't be staying for long! By releasing LV7, I can summon Armed Dragon LV10!" Manjoume shouted as a more bigger and spikier version appeared.

Armed Dragon LV10 (3000/2000) LVL:10

"It evolved again..."

"Armed Dragon's effect! By discarding a card in my hand, all monsters on your field are destroyed!" Manjoume shouted.

"I won't let you! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon's effect! Dichroic Mirror!"

"That won't work! Dragon's Veil's effect in the graveyard! By banishing it along with LV7, one dragon type on my field is unaffected by card effects and you can't activate effects in response to it's effect!" Manjoume countered.

"What?!" Yugo shouted as both of his dragons were destroyed. "When Clear Wing Fast Dragon is destroyed, I can place it in the Pendulum Zone!"

Marble Machine 1 - 4 Fast Dragon

"Battle! Direct Attack! This is the end! Armed Big Punisher!" Manjoume commanded his dragon as it shot a large ball of red energy towards Yugo.

"Three-Eyed Dice's effect in the grave! I banish it to negate the attack!" Yugo countered.

"So close...turn end."

"My turn! I gotta say, because I drew through your card effect, my hand is even better now! With the set pendulum scale, I can simultaneously summon monsters with levels 2 and 3! Pendulum Summon! From my hand, Speedroid Red Eyed Dice! Speedroid Taketonborg! Speedroid Ohajakid!" Yugo shouted as his three Speedroid appeared.

Speedroid Red Eyed Dice (100/100) LVL:1

Speedroid Taketonborg (600/1200) LVL:3

Speedroid Ohajakid (1000/200) LVL:3

"Next, I activate the effect of Clear Wing Fast Dragon in my Pendulum Zone! Now, I can send to the graveyard one tuner and other monsters on my field whose levels total as 7 in order to summon Fast Dragon from my Pendulum zone and it's treated as a Synchro Summon!" Yugo shouted.

"What?! You are Synchro summoning a monster from the Pendulum Zone...!" Manjoume said in awe.

"That's right! I tune the level 1 Red Eyed Dice with the level 3 Taketonborg and the level 3 Ohajakid! White dragon with shinning wings! Smash through our enemies and soar through the battle field at the speed of light! Scale Synchro Summon! Come Forth! Level 7! Clear Wing Fast Dragon!" Yugo shouted as his monster returned to the field.

Clear Wing Fast Dragon (2500/2000) LVL:7 SC: 4/4

"Next I use Clear Wing Fast Dragon's effect! Your dragon's ATK becomes 0 and it's effects are negated! Distortion Mirror!" Yugo shouted.

LV10 (3000/2000)-(0/2000)

"What?!" Manjoume shouted.

"Battle! Clear Wing Fast Dragon, attack Armed Dragon LV10! Rapid Skydrop Charge!" The dragon flew up towards the sky as it's wings began to glow light blue. Dragon dove down and towards the monster while surrounding itself with light blue energy as it flew through the air. The dragon slammed into the monster causing a large explosion that knocked Manjoume to the ground.

MANJOUME: 3500-1000 LP

"Take that! I set one card, Turn end." Yugo said with a confident expression.

"My turn! I activate the spell card Level Draw! I banish a LV monster in my graveyard and I draw cards for every 3 levels it had! I banish Armed Dragon LV10 and I draw 3 cards!" Manjoume shouted as he drew. "Next, I activate another Pot of Greed! I draw 2!"

"How many time are you going to draw..." Yugo said annoyed.

"Next, I set one card facedown. Then, I activate the spell card Hurricane! I return all spell and trap cards on our fields to our hands!" Manjoume shouted.

"Damn it!" Yugo said as his reverse card and his pendulum card returned to his hand while Manjoume's Continous spell and trap along with his own facedown returned to his hand.

"Next the effect of the Trap Card Treasure Map in my hand activates! Since this card was returned to my hand while face down on my field, I can discard it and I draw 2 cards! Next, I activate the spell card Graceful Charity! I draw 3 and discard two!" Manjoume said as he sent his spell and trap that me just had on the field to the grave.

"Why would you get rid of those cards?" Yugo asked.

"Because I have all I need to win right here in my hand! I activate the spell card Enchanting Fitting Room! I pay 800 life points..."

MANJOUME: 1000-200 LP

"...So I can look at the top 4 cards from the top of the deck and then I can special summon any level 3 or lower monster out of those 4 cards!" Manjoume said as he checked the top 4 cards. "I summon Ojama Yellow, Black, and Green!"

Ojama Yellow (0/1000) LVL:2

Ojama Black (0/1000) LVL:2

Ojama Green (0/1000) LVL:2

"You sure do use a variety of monsters." Yugo commented.

"Next I set two cards face down, turn end." Manjoume concluded.

"My turn! I activate the spell card Pendulum of the Wind! I discard one card, and add 2 WIND pendulum cards from my graveyard or extra deck to my hand! I add the Marble Machine I just discarded to my grave and my Passenglider in my extra deck to my hand!" Yugo shouted. "Next, with the Scale 1 Speedroid Marble Machine and the Scale 3 Speedroid Passenglider, I set the Pendulum Scale!"

Marble Machine 1 - 3 Passenglider

"I also activate the spell card Scale Up! I increase Passenglider's Scale by 2!" Yugo shouted,

Marble Machine 1 - 5 Passenglider

"Now I set one card face down. Then I activate Speedroid Reload! I send as many Speedroid as I want in my hand back to my deck to draw that same amount plus one!" Yugo shouted as he sent the only card in his hand to draw 2 cards.

"What are you plotting?" Manjoume asked.

"Just wait and see! With the set scale, I can simultaneously summon monster with levels 2 through 4! Pendulum Summon! From my hand, Speedroid Shave Boomerang! Speedroid Pachingo-Kart!" Yugo shouted as the two monsters appeared:

Speedroid Shave Boomerang (2000/0) LVL:4

Speedroid Pachingo-Kart! (1800/1000) LVL:4

"Battle! Go my three monsters, attack those Ojamas!" Yugo commanded his three monsters as they flew forwards and destroyed the monsters.

"Trap Activate! Ojama Delta Wear! I special summon my three Ojamas that were destroyed this turn!" Manjoume said as the three monster reappeared in defense mode.

"Damn, turn end." Yugo concluded.

"My turn! I activate my last Pot of Greed! I draw 2! Next is the Spell Card Ojama Delta Hurricane! While my three Ojamas are on my field, I can destroy all monsters on your field!" Manjoume shouted as the three Ojamas combined and formed a tornado that destroyed all of Yugo's cards.

"No...way..." Yugo uttered.

"Trap Activate! Ojama Trio! I special summon 3 Ojama tokens...to your field!" Manjoume shouted.

"What?" Yugo said the three Ojamas appeared on his field. "Fast Dragon's effect! I can set it in a Pendulum Zone!"

Fast Dragon 4 -

"I'm not done! I activate the spell card Fusion! I fuse my three Ojamas! Yellow! Green! Black! Unite as one and call forth the king of kings! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Level 10! Ojama King!" Manjoume shouted as a white Ojama with red under wear, a green cape, and a crown appeared.

Ojama King (0/3000) LVL:6

"Why did you summon a monster with 0 ATK?" Yugo asked.

"You'll see! First, Ojama King lets me choose three of your empty monster zones and they become unusable! But since you only have two empty, they become unusable!"

"What?!"

"Next, activate the spell card Ojama Healing! I regain life equal to half of Ojama King original DEF!" Manjoume said as he was surrounded by green aura.

MANJOUME: 200-1700 LP

"Now I pay 1000 life points..."

MANJOUME: 1700-700 LP

"...to activate the spell card Ojamandala! I special summon my Ojama trio once more!" Manjoume shouted as his three monsters appeared.

"Again?!" Yugi shouted.

"This is the card of your demise! I activate the spell card Ojamuscle! While I have Ojama King on my field, I can destroy all other Ojama cards on the field!" Manjoume shouted.

"Why would you summon them to my field just to destroy them?" Yugo asked.

"Hahaha! When a Ojama token is destroyed, the controller takes 300 damage each time one is destroyed! You only have 800 Life Points! It's over!" Manjoume shouted.

"No..." Yugo uttered as the three Ojamas exploded causing a lot of smoke to fill the field.

"Hahaha! The professor was right to send me here!" Manjoume said as he jumped with glee. But as the smoke settled, a Yugo with multiple scratches on his clothing stood there.

YUGO: 800-350 LP

"What?! How did you survive that?!" Manjoume shouted.

"I activate the effect of Damage Diet in my graveyard...that you destroyed with your spell's effect. ...by banishing it...all effect damage...is halved this turn!" Yugo managed to say as he smirked despite his pain.

"I didn't think you would survive that...but it doesn't matter! Ojamuscle's effect increase Ojama King's ATK for each destroyed card! Therefore, he know has 6000 ATK!" Manjoume shouted as his monster began to increase inside as it gained musclular arms and abs.

Ojama King (0/3000)-(6000/3000)

"Battle! Now this is the end for you! Ojumuacle Flying Body Attack!" Manjoume shouted as his monster jumped into the air trying to body slam Yugo.

"Pendulum of the Wind's effect in the graveyard! By banishing this card, I negate the attack and I summon one WIND monster from my Pendulum Zone but with it's effects negated! So I special summon Clear Wing Fast Dragon from my Pendulum Zone and your Attack is negated!" Yugo shouted as a green barrier formed around him while Clear Wing Fast Dragon appeared once more.

Clear Wing Fast Dragon (2500/2000) LVL:7 SC: 4/4

"I'll finish you off next turn then...turn end." Manjoume concluded.

'This is my last chance...I have to draw something I can use to win...no...I will draw a good card! I won't let anyone else get hurt! I'll win and be one step closer to saving Rin while protecting my new family!' Yugo thought to himself as his hand hovered over his deck.

"My turn...DRAW!"

"I activate the spell card Monster Reborn! I revive...Speedroid Red Eyed Dice!" Yugo shouted as the yellow dice appeared again.

Speedroid Red Eyed Dice (100/100) LVL:1

"What will that do?" Manjoume asked with a cocky smile.

"Watch! I tune the level 1 Red Eyed Dice to the level 7 Clear Wing Fast Dragon! Spread those wings shining with scared light! Strike down your enemies with that radiance! Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 8! Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon!" Yugo shouted as his evolved ace appeared.

Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon (3000/2500) LVL:8

"That dragon is still weak!" Manjoume shouted.

"Battle! Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon Attack! When Crystal Wing battles a level 5 or higher monster, it gains the opposing monster's ATK!" Yugo shouted as his monster powered up.

Crystal Wing (3000/2500)-(9000/2500)

"9-9000?!" Manjoume uttered in disbelief.

"Go...KRYSTALLOS GALE EDGE!" Yugo shouted as his monster smashed through the muscular fusion monster which caused a big explosion that sent Manjoume flying through the air.

"Ahhhh!" Manjoume screamed before hitting the ground hard.

MANJOUME: 700-0 LP

WINNER: YUGO

"That sure was a close one." Yugo said relieved.

"That...was a good duel...but this won't...be the last time...you see me...!" Manjoume said before vanishing via Force Return.

"He didn't even seem that bad...unlike Darkness." Yugo said.

"DUEL!"

"My turn! I activate the Field Spell Advanced Dark!" Johan said as a dark blue magical circle appeared around the two duelists while the sky above them became dark.

"What is this?" Yuzu asked.

"And since this card is on my field, I can summon my Advanced Gem Beasts. Now I summon Advanced Gem Beast Amethyst Cat!" Johan shouted as a purple gem appeared that bursted and turned into a purple cat with black blades and black tail. The cat had a purple gem on it's chest.

Advanced Gem Beast Amethyst Cat (1200/400) LVL:3

"I set one card face down, turn end." Johan concluded.

'What is he playing at? A low level monster and a set card... if this guy is on Yuri's level, than I can't let my guard down.' Yuzu thought to herself. "My turn! I activate the spell card Fusion! I fuse together Aria the Melodious Diva and Elegy the Melodious Diva in my hand! Echoing melodious voice! Flowing Melody! With guidance of the baton, gather your power! Fusion Summon! Now come here to the stage! Meisterin Schubert the Melodious Maestra!" Yuzu shouted as her fusion monster wearing red clothing and had long orange hair with a baton in her hand appeared.

Meisterin Schubert the Melodious Maestra (2400/2000) LVL:6

"A Fusion Summon, eh?" Johan acknowledged.

"I know that Fusion summoning is used as Academia's weapon but...I will still hold onto my dueling!" Yuzu said looking at her Fusion monster who nodded back to her.

"Good for you~. Now, are you going to make a move?" Johan asked.

"Schubert's effect! I can banish fusion materials in either players grave that were used for a players Fusion Summon! Now I banish your Aria and Elegy in in my graveyard! And then she gains 200 ATK for each banished card! Chorus Break!" Yuzu shouted.

Meisterin Schubert (2400/2000)-(2800/2000)

"Battle! Meisterin Schubert Attack Amethyst Cat! Wave of the Great!" Yuzu commanded her monster as it waved it's baton rapidly creating a red wave of music that consumed the cat which caused a explosion. But as the smoke dispersed, Jesse was revealed to be unharmed along with a purple gem next to him.. "What?! You should have taken 1600 damage!"

"Thanks to my Advanced Dark, when I would take damage from a battle when an Advanced Gem Beast would be destroyed, by sending a Advanced Crystal Beast from my deck to my graveyard, such as my Cobalt Eagle, I take no damage! Also, my Gem Beasts have a special effect. When they would be destroyed, I can place them in my Spell/Trap Card zone instead." Johan explained.

"Damn...I set one card facedown, Turn End." Yuzu concluded.

"My turn! I summon Advanced Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus!" Johan exclaimed as a blue gem appeared that bursted and turned into a white Pegasus with a black horn and two sapphires on it's wings.

Advanced Gem Beast Sapphire Pegasus (1800/1200) LVL:4

"Sapphire Pegasus' effect. I place Ruby Carbuncle in my deck into my Spell/Trap Card zone! Then, Ruby Carbuncle's effect! I can special summon Ruby Carbuncle and Amethyst Cat from my Spell/Trap card zone!" Johan shouted as the light purple cat and a small blue fox like monster with red eyes and four ears along with a small red gem on it's forehead appeared.

Advanced Gem Beast Amethyst Cat (1200/400) LVL:3

Advanced Gem Beast Ruby Carbuncle (300/300) LVL:3

"Even though you have 3 monsters, none of them are strong enough to take down my Schubert!" Yuzu said with confidence.

"Is that so? I activate the spell card Gem Degrading! Now your monster loses ATK equal to the combined levels of Gem Beasts on my field times 200! The combined level is 10, so it loses 2000 ATK!" Johan shouted with a grin as the gem beasts each shot a blast from their gems towards the Fusion monster.

Schubert (2800/2000)-(800/2000)

"N-No way..." Yuzu uttered.

"Battle! Sapphire Pegasus attack! Sapphire Dark Horn!" Johan shouted as his monster dashed at the weakened monster.

"Trap Activate! Half Unbreak! My monster isn't destroyed and the damage is halved!" Yuzu shouted as a barrier formed around her monster.

YUZU: 4000-3500 LP

"Although I could attack your monster again Amethyst Cat, I think I'll do this instead! Amethyst Cat's effect! It can attack you directly but the damage is halved! Direct Attack!" Johan shouted as his monster ran behind the Fusion monster and jumped at the girl. Yuzu braced herself by putting her arm I front of her body but her arm was scratched by the monster causing her to bleed.

YUZU: 3500-2900 LP

"Ow..." Yuzu said as she wiped off the blood on her arm from where the claw mark was.

"Turn end." Jesse concluded.

"My turn!" Yuzu shouted as she looked at the card she drew and then smile. "Alright! I activate the spell card Fusion!"

"Another one?" Johan said with a hint of annoyance.

"I fuse Prodigy Mozart and Schubert! "Conductor of Angels! Supreme Genius! By the guidance of the baton, assemble your power. Fusion Summon! Now on stage, the song of passion! Bloom Prima the Melodious Floral Saint!" Yuzu shouted as a small blue haired monster with a yellow and dark blue dress with a dark blue flower next to each of her shoulders appeared.

Bloom Prima the Melodious Floral Saint (1900/2000) LVL:7

"Bloom Prime gains 300 ATK for each of her Fusion Materials!" Yuzu shouted while pointing up at her monster.

Bloom Prima (1900/2000)-(2500/2000)

"Also, Bloom Prima can attack twice!" Yuzu shouted.

"No matter how many times you attack, it is useless!" Johan said with a smirk but Yuzu ignored the comment.

"Battle! Bloom Prima, attack Sapphire Pegasus and Amethyst Cat! Harmonic Sound Wave!" Yuzu commanded her monster.

"Advance Dark's effect! I send Amber Mammoth and Emerald Turtle from my deck to my graveyard and I take no damage!" Johan countered as blue and purple gems appeared beside him.

"I activate the Quick Play Spell Fusion Cancel! I return Bloom Prima to the extra deck in order to summon it's Fusion Materials! Come back, Prodigy Mozart and Schubert!" Yuzu shouted as the her Fusion monster and her ace monster re appeared.

Prodigy Mozart the Melodious Maestra (2600/2000) LVL:8

Meisterin Schubert the Melodious Maestra (2400/2000) LVL:6

"What?!" Johan yelled.

"Go Schubert! Attack Ruby Carbuncle! Wave of the Great!" Yuzu commanded.

"I send Topaz Tiger in my deck to my grave and I take no damage!" Johan countered again while a red gem appeared next to him.

"But now you are wide open! Prodigy Mozart, Direct! Attack! Graceful Wave!" Yuzu shouted.

"Trap Activate! Rainbow Path! By randomly sending a Gem Beast to my graveyard, I can negate that attack! Then I can add a special card from my deck to my hand." Johan said with an evil grin as a card popped out of his deck while Ruby Carbuncle was sent to the grave.

"Turn end." Yuzu said with a confident smirk. She had two powerful monsters in her field while her opponent didn't have any monsters.

"My turn! But before I do anything, I must thank you, Yuzu." Johan said to the girl who was taken by surprise.

"What?! For what?!" Yuzu yelled confused.

"Because of you, not only was I able to add a special card to my hand...but I was able to set up everything for this!" Johan shouted holding up a card that glowed. Suddenly, the spirits of the monsters he sent to the grave along with the spirits of the two gems on his field appeared and they began glowing in a bright light.

"What?!" Yuzu said with a shocked and worried tone.

"When there are 7 Advanced Gem Beasts on the field or in the graveyard..." Johan began while the 7 spirits turned into bright lights that flew up into the air. "I'm allowed to summon my ace monster!" The 7 lights merged into one rainbow cored light that revealed the shadow of the a extremely large dragon. "When the seven Advanced Gem Beasts are all together, the darkness that clouds this world revives on this Earth! Behold! The ultimate power of the advanced gem beasts! Be reborn! Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dark Dragon!"

Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dark Dragon (4000/0) LVL:10

As the light dispersed, a large black and grey dragon with large wings, a serpent like body, and several different colored gems on it's neck roared causing Yuzu to flinch in fear.

"That monster...is huge..." Yuzu uttered.

"This is the ultimate form of my Advanced Gem Beasts! Although it can't activate it's effects the turn it is summoned, I can still attack! Battle! Rainbow Dark Dragon, attack Prodigy Mozart! Rainbow Reflection!" Johan shouted pointing at the pink haired girl's ace monster as his dragon fired a Rainbow colored blast at the Melodious Maestra.

"Mozart!" Yuzu shouted as her monster was obliterated causing her to be sent flying back from the explosion.

YUZU: 2900-1500 LP

"I set one card, Turn End. You don't stand a chance against me now! Give up and I will have mercy on you as long as you come with me-"

"NEVER! I will never give up! Until I run out of life points...I will not surrender!" Yuzu shouted.

"It's funny how you say that even though you already lost to Yuri yet you still think you can win against me." Johan taunted.

"Shut up! My turn! I activate Pot of Greed! I draw 2 cards!" Yuzu shouted drawing once more. "Next I summon Soprano the Melodious Songstress!"

Soprano the Melodious Songstress (1400/1400) LVL:4

"Soprano's effect! I can now perform a Fusion Summon without a Fusion spell! I fuse herself along with Schubert!" Yuzu shouted as her two monsters rose in the Fusion vortex.

"It doesn't matter what you summon, nothing is comparable to my Ultimate Gem God!" Johan shouted with a smirk.

"Oh we'll see about that! Supreme Prodigy! Conductor of Angels! With the guidance of the baton, gather your power! Fusion Summon! Now come here to the stage! Level 6! Sing the song of victory! Bloom Diva the Melodious Floral Saint!" Yuzu shouted as the fusion monster appeared.

Bloom Diva the Melodious Floral Saint (1000/2000) LVL:6

"Only 1000 ATK?! Have you gone mad?!" Johan asked but Yuzu just smiled.

"Not at all! Battle! Bloom Diva attack Rainbow Dark Dragon! At this moment, Bloom Diva's effect activates! I don't take any damage and Bloom Diva isn't destroyed. On the other hand, you take the damage I would have taken and your monster is destroyed!" Yuzu explained.

"What?!" Johan shouted.

"The bigger they are...the harder they fall! Go, Reflect Shout!" Yuzu commanded her monster as a green wave of wind was created from her monster's singing that consumed the large dragon causing a huge explosion.

JOHAN: 4000-1000 LP

"I did it!" Yuzu cheered as the smoke began to disperse.

As the smoke dispersed, not only was the dragon still on the field, but Johan's life points were even higher now. "Hehehe."

JOHAN: 1000-4000-7000 LP

"What?!" Yuzu shouted.

"By sending Amethyst Cat in my Spell/Trap Card zone to my graveyard, I could negate my Dragon's destruction. Also, I activated the Trap Card Rainbow Life. By discarding a card, my life returned to how it was at the start of the turn, and then I gained life equal to the damage I took this turn! All your efforts were inevitable in the end!" Johan laughed.

"I set one card face down and end my turn." Yuzu concluded with a defeated tone.

"My turn! I activate the effect of Rainbow Dark Dragon! By releasing Sapphire Pegasus in my Spell/Trap Card zone, my dragon gains 1000 ATK!"

Rainbow Dark Dragon (4000/0)-(5000/0)

"Rainbow Dark Dragon, Attack!" Johan shouted as his monster began to charge another blast.

"What?! You'll take damage if you attack!" Yuzu shouted at her opponent who laughed.

"Advanced Dark's effect. When a Ultimate Gem God attacks, the opposing monsters effects are negated!" Johan shouted.

"No way..." Yuzu uttered.

"This is the end! RAINBOW REFRACTION!" Johan shouted as his dragon fired another Rainbow colored blast.

"...I'm not done yet! Trap Activate! Melodious Backup Singing! When a Melodious Fusion monster is attacked by a monster with 2000 or more ATK, it gains ATK equal to the fusion material with the highest ATK! Also, damage either player would take is halved!" Yuzu shouted as the spirit of Schubert appeared behind Bloom Diva before being destroyed.

Bloom Diva (1000/2000)-(3400/2000)

YUZU: 1500-700 LP

"I'm not done fighting!" Yuzu shouted.

"How annoying...I end my turn."

"During the end phase of Melodious Duo's effect, I can draw a card for each Melodious Monster in my grave. I draw 3 cards!" Yuzu shouted as she drew.

"Take your last turn before I end you." Johan said with a cold stare.

'Can I even win...I have already used up all my Fusion monsters...I don't have any other cards that can match that dragon either. Is winning even possible?' Yuzu said looking at the ground as tears began to appear in her eyes. As a single tear dropped to the ground, Yuzu's bracelet began glowing dimly which turned into a bright light that consumed Yuzu.


Yuzu opened her eyes and saw that she was in a white void. She looked behind her and saw a yellow spirit of a older teen girl.

"Yuzu, I'm so proud of you and what you have become. Since the bracelet is broken, I don't know how much more I can do to keep the dragons from uniting. But I can give you this power. So please...don't give up and don't stop fighting. You must save your counterparts and keep the dragons from becoming one. Good luck." The voice said as a pink aura flowed from the spirit into herself. Before she could say anything, everything went blank...


Yuzu looked up with clear eyes at her opponent while her deck, graveyard, and extra deck glowed pink. She couldn't remember exactly what just happened, but her confidence was now greater than ever.

"What is this?" Johan asked.

"You'll see! My turn! I activate the spell card Monster Reincarnation! I discard a card to add a monster back to my hand!" Yuzu shouted as the card that returned to her hand glowed pink as two other cards in her hand began to change form causing her to look in astonishment before smiling.

"Not giving up yet? It will be your demise!" Johan sneered but Yuzu just smirked.

"It's time for me to debut my new power! With the Scale 2 Tempo the Melodious Diva and Scale 9 Metronome the Melodious Diva, I set the Pendulum Zone!" Yuzu shouted as a two monsters rose in the blue columns. The lower scale monster was a pink haired female with a white dress and she carried a sheet of music while the higher scale was a blonde short haired female with a turquoise skirt and black leggings and she carried a metronome with her.

Tempo 2 - 9 Metronome

"Pendulum?!" Johan said shocked.

"With these two monsters, I can simultaneously summon monsters with levels 3 through 8! Swing Pendulum of Harmony! Draw an arc of beauty and peace across the heavens! Pendulum Summon! From my hand, enchanting melody echoing in the heavens! Awaken the sleeping virtuoso! Come forth, Prodigy Mozart the Melodious Maestra!" Yuzu shouted as her new Pendulum Ace monster appeared. Her ace monster now had a red gem in the right side of her chest and had a blue gem on the left side.

Prodigy Mozart the Melodious Diva (2600/2000) LVL:8 PS:4/4

"Your ace monster evolved..." Johan said.

"Yup! And so did her effect! Now once per turn, I can special summon a level 4 or lower Melodious monster from my hand OR my graveyard! So come on out, Soprano the Melodious Songstress!" Yuzu shouted as her monster reappeared.

"Going for another Fusion Summon again?" Johan asked.

"Not at all! Next I activate the Pendulum Effect of Tempo the Melodious Scale! Once per turn when a level 4 or lower Melodious monster is special summoned due to a card effect, I can special summon another Level 4 or lower Melodious monster from my graveyard with it's effects negated! Come back, Opera the Melodious Diva!" Yuzu shouted as the diva appeared which was the card she had just discarded.

Opera the Melodious Diva (2300/1000) LVL:4

"Next, I overlay the level 4 Opera and Soprano!" Yuzu shouted as the two monsters turned into yellow energy that flew into the overlay network.

"What?! You can Xyz summon too?!" Johan said shocked.

"With these two monsters, I build the overlay network! Beautiful and elegant floral diva, conduct the song of hope and prosperity and guide the concert with your baton! XYZ SUMMON! Now come to the stage! Rank 4! Bloom Lorin the Melodious Floral Conductor!" Yuzu shouted as her new Xyz monster appeared. The monster was a young woman with long blonde hair, light skin, blue eyes. She had a long dress that was purple towards the top and dark blue towards the bottom. She had multiple pink flowers on her dress and two large pink flowers in her shoulder blades.

Bloom Lorin the Melodious Floral Conductor (2300/2100) RNK:4 OVU:2

"Even though you managed to Xyz summon, your monster doesn't come close to my dragon in ATK!" Johan laughed.

"Oh we'll see about that! Bloom Lorin's effect! She gains 300 ATK for every Melodious monster in my field!" Yuzu shouted as her monster powered up.

Bloom Lorin (2300/2100)-(2600/2100)

"Bloom Lorin's effect! Once per turn, by using an overlay unit, I can target one monster on your field and it loses 500 ATK for each Melodious monster on my field and in my graveyard! There are a total of 3 in my grave and 2 on my field so your dragon loses 2500 ATK!" Yuzu shouted. Suddenly, Soprano, Bloom Diva, and Schubert appeared behind the Xyz monster while Prodigy Mozart flew behind her as well. She turned around and began conducting the 5 Melodious monsters. A large red sound wave was produced from the harmony of the singers which caused the dragon to weaken.

Rainbow Dark Dragon (5000/0)-(2500/0)

"What?!" Johan yelled.

"Battle! Go, Bloom Lorin! Attack Rainbow Dark Dragon! Virtuoso Stream!" Yuzu commanded her new monster as the Xyz monster began singing while pouting her baton directly at the dragon before shooting a blue blast from the tip which cut through the center of the dragon causing a explosion.

"Rainbow Dark Dragon!" Johan shouted before flinching from the minor shockwave.

JOHAN: 7000-6900 LP

"Continue the assault, Prodigy Mozart! Direct Attack! Graceful Wave!" Yuzu commanded as the powerful wave of music hit Johan causing him to get knocked back.

JOHAN: 6900-4300 LP

"It doesn't matter! I still have much more life points compared to you!" Johan said as he got up.

"But you no longer have that dragon on your field!" Yuzu responded causing Johan to grit his teeth.

"And you'll pay for that!" Johan shouted.

"We'll see. Turn end." Yuzu said with restored confidence.

"MY TURN! I guess I really did underestimate you...so I will no longer hold back! I activate my own Monster Reincarnation! I discard a card and I add one monster back to my hand! And guess which monster I added back!" Johan shouted.

"Uh oh..." Yuzu gulped.

"Since there are 7 Advanced Gem Beasts in my graveyard, I can summon back Rainbow Dark Dragon once more!" Johan shouted as the large dragon reappeared with a ferocious roar.

"That dragon won't defeat me!" Yuzu shouted.

"You are right~. This dragon won't be the one that will defeat you!" Johan yelled before laughing like a mad man.

"What..." Yuzu said confused at her opponent's outburst. Were all of Academia's duelists psychos like Yuri was.

"By releasing a DARK level 10 Ultimate Gem God on my field, I can special summon a new monster directly from my extra deck!" Johan shouted as his extra deck slot opened up and a card popped out. With a mad grin, Johan grabbed the card and slammed it on his duel disk. The previous black dragon turned into a dark fog that began expanding.

"What is going on...?!" Yuzu uttered in fear.

"Ultimate Dark Gem God, evolve through the pits of darkness and destroy everything in your path! TRANSFORMATION SUMMON! Come forth! Level 10! Rainbow Dark Overdragon!" Johan shouted as an even bigger dragon appeared out of the dark fog. The new dragon appeared. Besides height, the new dragon still was pitch black with a serpent like body and had gems on it's neck along with very large wings. But this dragon had dark purple armor near it's chest and on it's large wings. The new dragon also had a large dark blue crystal in the middle of it's body.

Also, instead of having red eyes, the dragons Eyes were pitch black.

Ultimate Gem God - Rainbow Dark Overdragon (4000/0) LVL:12

"What is that thing?!" Yuzu shouted.

"It's the weapon that I will use to end you! You should be honored to be in the presence of such a creature." Johan said with a grin.

Yuzu looked at the dragon with sorrowful eyes. She didn't know why, but she knew that the dragon in front of her was not well. "Your monster...it's in pain..."

"Shut up! You know nothing! Rainbow Dark Overdragon's effect! By banishing one Gem Beast in my graveyard, all monsters on your field have their ATKs halved and their effects negated! Color Drain!" Johan shouted as the crystal in the middle of the dragon's body began glowing. The crystal absorbed all the color out of the monster's leaving them severely weakened.

Prodigy Mozart (2600/2000)-(1300/2000)

Bloom Lorin (2600/2100)-(1150/2100)

"My monsters..." Yuzu said horrified as both of her monsters dropped to the ground on their knees.

"HAHAHA! BATTLE! Rainbow Dark Overdragon, Attack Bloom Lorin and end this duel! CORRUPTED RAINBOW IMPACT!" Johan shouted pointing at the Xyz monster as the dragon fired a rainbow and black mixed color blast.

"Is this the end...NO! I activate Metronome's Pendulum Effect! Once per turn, when a Melodious monster is attacked, I gain life points equal to half of my monsters original ATK!" Yuzu shouted as her monster released a green healing wave from her metronome that healed Yuzu.

YUZU: 700-2000 LP

"I activate the effect of Melodious Backup Singing in my graveyard! By banishing it along with a Melodious Fusion monster with the highest ATK in my grave which is Schubert, I half any damage I'm about to take!" Yuzu shouted as her Fusion apeared I front of her in spirit.

The blast hit the monster and the spirit causing a huge explosion that sent Yuzu flying in the air before she hit the ground very hard.

YUZU: 2000-575 LP

"Damn you and your persistence...turn end." Johan concluded.

"I'm...not...giving up...I can...still...win..." Yuzu said barely managing to stay on her feet.

"You must truly like suffering since you haven't given up yet." Johan said.

"Yuya...give me strength..." Yuzu said as her hand hovered over her deck. "My...turn...DRAW!"

"Make your last turn before I end you." Johan said.

"I activate the spell card Concert of Angels! By releasing one level 8 or higher fairy-type monster..." Yuzu shouted as the weakened Mozart dissolved into yellow particles. "...I can special summon two fairy-types in my graveyard with their effects negated that have less ATK than the released monster's original ATK! So come forth, Bloom Diva and Bloom Lorin!"

Bloom Diva the Melodious Floral Saint (1000/2000) LVL:6

Bloom Lorin the Melodious Floral Conductor (2300/2100) RNK:4

"Next, I Pendulum Summon! Back on the stage for an encore, Prodigy Mozart the Melodious Maestra!" Yuzu shouted as her ace monster returned.

Prodigy Mozart the Melodious Maestra (2600/2000) LVL:8

Yuzu looked at her 3 ace cards and smiled. Each of these cards represented a different part of her. Prodigy Mozart was her trying to keep up with her friends forcing her to evolve even further. Bloom Diva represented her will to become stronger to protect her friends and You Show. Bloom Lorin represented her no longer being a little girl that was a damsel in distress. She was stronger and ready to take on what was ahead of her.

"So what? With your extra deck monsters having their effects negated, they are useless against my dragon!" Johan sneered.

"Thought they might not be able to do anything, Mozart can still use her effect! I use it again to special summon Soprano once more! Then, Beats' Pendulum effect! I special summon Opera again!" Yuzu shouted as the two monsters appeared once more.

Soprano the Melodious Songstress (1400/1400) LVL:4

Opera the Melodious Diva (2300/1000) LVL:4

"5 monsters...all in ATK mode?! Hah! That mistake will cost you!" Johan shouted.

"Is that what you think?" Yuzu asked with full confidence.

"What?!" Johan shouted.

"Watch this! I activate the other effect of Concert of Angels! I can banish that card in my graveyard and the fairy-type with the highest level in my field gains 400 ATK for every fairy-type on the field! There are a total of 5...SO PRODIGY MOZART GAINS 2000 ATK!" Yuzu shouted at the top of her lungs as the energy from all the monsters flowed into Prodigy Mozart.

Prodigy Mozart (2600/2000)-(4600/2000)

"N-No...this can't be happening..." Johan uttered as he stepped back.

"Battle! Prodigy Mozart, slay that dragon! ANGELIC GRACEFUL WAVE!" Yuzu shouted as a much more powerful wave of music was launched at the dragon causing a huge explosion.

JOHAN: 4300-3700 LP

"It's time for the Climax! I attack you directly with the rest of my monsters! CONCERT OF ANGELS!" Yuzu shouted as her 4 remaining monsters sang in unison creating a powerful wave of energy that hit Johan causing a huge explosion.

"GAHHH!" Johan shouted as he flew through the air before landing hard and tumbling backwards.

JOHAN: 3700-0 LP

WINNER: YUZU!

"Damn you...I'll be back-!" Johan began to say before being teleported back to Academia.

"Yuya...I did it..." Yuzu said. She began to lose her balance but Yugo, who had just finished his duel, ran over and managed to keep her from falling.

"Yuzu, you won! I knew you could do it!" Yugo said.

"Thanks, where is Yuya and the others?" Yuzu asked.

"The others just finished the duel against the Obelisk Force. At the end of my duel, I saw them running towards Yuya and Sora." Yugo explained.

"We have to go with them!" Yuzu said.

"I know you want to see Yuya...but we need to go to Yuto first." Yugo explained.

"Why is that?" Yuzu asked. Yuto was most likely the strongest out of the 4, so surely he would win.

"I just have a very bad feeling." Yugo said gripping his chest.

Yuzu looked at the Synchro duelist and nodded. "You are right. If something happens to Yuya, he's got Gongenzaka and the others as back up while Yuto doesn't. So let's get going quickly."

Yugo nodded and the two then proceeded to run off towards there friend. As they ran, Yuzu began to think to herself. 'I really hope Yugo's bad feeling wasn't reality. There's no way Yuto could lose...could he?'

Hey everyone! I'm going to save comments for the next chapter since they should be posted back to back. I'm sorry it's been a while. Since Corona restrictions have been lifted, I've gotten to go on a vacation and I got to a baseball tournament finally! Don't worry, these aren't the reasons I haven't uploaded a new chapter. First of all, I haven't uploaded because I have actually been writing 4 duels. I've been trying to work each of them in but it ended up being 20k so I decided to split up the duels into 2 each chapter. Also, YUZU IS STILL IN STANDARD! I wanted her to stay because there was no reason for her to be sent away since she already knows Yugo so the whole mystery part where she is sent to Synchro along with a person who murdered her friend (Yuto) who looks like her crush (Yuya) doesn't apply since Yugo never killed Yuto, and they all end up becoming friends. BUT DON'T WORRY! When the Lancers go to Synchro, something similar that happened in the anime will happen with Yuzu and Yugo meaning they will be sent to a similar place.

For the duels, I tried to let Yugo pendulum summon more since he got to Pendulum Summon like once so far. I hope you guys liked Manjoume's dueling. At first, I was going to just give Yuzu just pendulum but then I got the idea for Yuzu Xyz summoning and it kinda happened. Don't worry, she'll learn Ritual and Synchro later on.

Anyways, no preview since you are about to read the next chapter. So seeya soon!
