bopdog111: Yuya, and Allie got a good date.
Ulrich362: True, they did.
bopdog111: And now looks like the Battle Royale is within sight.
Ulrich362: Battle Royale, you mean the Arc-League right?
bopdog111: Battle Royale, and Arc-League are the same from the dub/sub.
Ulrich362: I guess I associate the Battle Royale with something else, though that aside... enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V but we do own the OCs!
Allie was sleeping peacefully in her bed after a good date yesterday. Just then something walked into her room, and proceeded to tickle her awake. Giggling she squirmed and slowly opened her eyes to see who it was that was tickling her. It was Yuya with a grin with a baby bjorn on.
"Yuya... that tickles." Allie laughed as she sat up and started tickling him back.
Yuya chuckled over from this stopping. Allie stretched before smiling. "We both made it, we're in the Arc-League Yuya."
"Yes we are. And both our parents gave us permission to take Iris with us." Yuya smiled over.
Allie smiled at that. "I know, she's our biggest supporter, let's go see if our little fish is awake."
Yuya nodded walking out with her. Eventually arriving at a room they entered where they see Iris is asleep soundly in her crib. Seeing that Allie smiled as Yuya gently picked her up. "Iris sweetie, time to get up."
He gently kissed her head softly as Iris blinked slowly opening her eyes.
"Mommy and daddy are going to the big tournament and we need you to cheer for us my little fishy baby." Allie smiled kissing her forehead.
Iris giggled over from this moving her arms. Yuya chuckled as he places Iris in the Baby Bjorn on him. "Comfy Iris?"
She giggled and nodded clapping happily. "Oo sow, oo sow!"
Yuya blinked at that. "Iris?"
She looked at him before giggling happily. "Oo sow, oo sow!"
"Oh my god, you said your first words!" Yuya called excitedly. "Allie are you hearing this!?"
Allie's eyes were wide before she smiled. "This is amazing!"
"First words are You Show. I wonder what Grandpa would think if he were here." Yuya smiled chuckling over. "Well if we're ready Allie let's get moving." He grabbed a diaper bag as he said this.
Allie nodded smiling as the three of them went to meet up with the others at the You Show Duel School. Eventually they arrived where everyone else is talking waiting for them.
"Guys, guys, you'll never guess what happened!" Allie smiled excitedly.
They looked over to them over as Zuzu asked. "What? What happened?"
Iris giggled clapping. "Oo sow, oo sow."
"Her first words!" Tate cheered from this jumping.
"You Show!" Frederick cheered with him from Iris' first words.
She giggled happily at that. "Oo show."
"Well, now we have to win for Iris right guys?" Sora smiled.
"After hearing her cheer for You Show it's a must!" Skip grinned over. "Okay then everyone let's go over the brackets one last time!"
Everyone nodded turning to him at that.
"As you may remember, this championship will be sectioned off into three age brackets, beginning with the Youth Division. That's where Tate, Allie, and Frederick are competing."
The three of them all smiled at that.
"You'll all do a great job." Zuzu smiled.
"While Yuya, Zuzu, and Sora are competing in the Junior Division." Skip added.
"Yeah./Okay." the three teens nodded.
"Unless you've been asleep for the last decade, you know that these League Championships are a titanic deal! Of course, all the top schools will be represented by their best and brightest, including the Leo Institute. But there will also be incredible duelists from across the globe!" Skip grinned as a flaming background appeared behind him, "So this is our chance to show the world that You Show's Dueltaining Style of combat is the best. You've all been terrific teammates to each other, but starting now it's gut-check time, and I want you to think of each other as potential rivals. Torch all your competitors! Burn up the field! Feed the flames! Keep turning up the heat on your rivals til you reach victory in a blaze of glory!"
As Skip continued they all with Yoko, and Gong were heading to the small van that is apparently there bus, "Attack in a relentless inferno of fiery fury!"
"Good luck, you'll all do wonderful so just remember to have fun." Yoko smiled gently.
They all nodded with smiles before Yuya then turned to Allie. "Hey Allie mind taking Iris for a sec?"
"Sure." she smiled taking her daughter and smiling while making a silly face while Iris giggled happily.
He smiled before turning to Skip who's getting in the driver's seat. "Sorry go ahead without me. I'll be there, I just want to clear my head before it starts."
"Are you sure?" Skip asked him only to see Yuya nod. "Well, alright."
With that he driven off to the stadium as Yuya stared before sighing with a smile turning to head to a clearing.
Meanwhile...
"This is Joy Jeever reporting live from Paradise Square. The Whole City is sizzling with excitement. And why? Because one of the year's most exciting events is just about to kick off. I'm talking about the ARC League Championship. Crowds are filling the arena, eager to see their favorite duelists face-off in the fantastically realistic environments generated by the Leo Corporation's Augmented Realty Combat system." a female reporter stated in the arena, "This remarkable technology has revolutionized Action Dueling, placing duelists directly in the thick of battle. It's no wonder this pastime has the world's most fanatic fan base. They can't wait for this tournament to start. Neither can I! Any minute now the opening ceremonies will begin, and we can expect this crowd to go wild."
That was when she, and her cameraman heard the crowd cheering as they turned.
"Huh? Is the ceremony starting?" Joy asked looking around before seeing it, and smiled, "No, wait, he's here. We have a major celebrity sighting. It's the one and only Declan Akaba, President of Leo Corporation, the main sponsor of this competition. Listen to that crow as they welcome one of the dueling world's greatest stars!"
While she was saying that Declan along with the woman that was from his match with Dan walked to the sponsor chairs as the crowd cheered for them.
"What an electric moment! It seems like ages since Declan made a public appearance at a dueling event." Joy announced to the audience.
"Declan! Declan! Declan! Declan!" the crowd chanted his name as Declan waved to them.
Meanwhile...
All of You Show walked in together looking around seeing the rival Duel Schools there all gonna face. But a voice was brought up. "Oh it's you all." They all turned seeing Aura walking up with her crystal apple.
"Oh, hi Aura." Allie smiled seeing her again.
Aura smiled before blinking. "Where's Yuya? I thought he be with you all."
"He wanted to clear his head before the competition." Zuzu explained.
"Oh I see." Aura nodded before then seeing Iris, and smiled. "Oh hello, I don't think we met yet. You must be Yuya, and Allie's little cutie. I'm Aura." She waved with a smile.
Iris looked at Aura and giggled happily clapping. "Oo sow, oo sow."
"Oh wow when did she start speaking?" Aura asked surprised.
"Just today." Allie smiled. "Her first words are You Show."
Aura smiled back before rubbing Iris' head. "Well since we have a little time, do you want me to read Iris' fortune Allie?"
"Oh, ok." Allie smiled. "It could be fun."
Aura knelled down taking out a Deck of cards shuffling them over before placing three down as Allie sat on the floor with Iris on her lap. "Okay then... to start off, the card for the first is..." Aura flipped it over. "The Empress in upright. It tells that she started her journey being nurtured by those who cared for her while providing a new opportunity for others." That made Zuzu, and Allie be reminded of there experience in Miracle Garden where Allie went through the pregnancy, and had Iris together along with deciding to keep it.
"That's true." Allie smiled.
"Next the card to describe the current path is..." Aura turned the card which is upside down. "The Chariot in the downward position. It speaks of positive momentum, letting go of the past to move forward. But it's upside down which means it's reversed."
"What do you mean by 'reversed'?" Tate asked a little nervous that reversed can't mean good.
"It means that the only way standing in her way of her goal... is herself." Aura answered over. "The Universe is expecting her to follow her path with no shortcuts, and if she lacks the direction, she herself will be her greatest test to what she will want later in life." That doesn't sound that bad... based on that daydream that Yuya told her, Allie probably guesses this meant Iris wanting to be a Dueltainer herself but was quite nervous in asking.
"Well, she has everyone supporting her and we'll help her however we can." Allie smiled kissing Iris on the head making her giggle.
"And the final card." Aura flipped the last card showing a moon upright. "Huh. Interesting..."
"Is something wrong?" Zuzu frowned.
"The Moon in the upright position. Shows of mysteries are gonna unfold among her. To where everything is not all that it seems to be." Aura explained over. "From how this looks, I can conclude that she is born having some great powers that she will need assistance to bring out so that she can use the powers well."
Allie looked shocked hearing that as she looked at Iris who blinked in confusion.
"Well Iris, I think you are quite a special girl." Aura picks up her crystal apple with a smile. "Here. Touch this for me to have a closer look." She holds out her crystal apple for Iris to touch. Looking at it curiously Iris reached forward and touched the apple.
To Aura the crystal apple glowed which she smiled. "Okay good girl. Keep your hand as I look deep into your soul. Yes I'm seeing something... something..." Aura then gave a shocked look. "Huh?"
"What is it? Is Iris ok?" Allie asked nervously.
(Cue Theme: Stalked by Fear)
"I... I don't know what this about. But I'm seeing something... it looks like Yuya but he's difference... a great darkness surrounding him." Aura was staring into the crystal apple in shock. "I'm also seeing someone beside him... it... looks like you Allie but you also look different... and alongside another girl no one I'm familiar with. And two children. One is Iris, and the other is a boy. And Yuya... is attacking everything." Aura looked stunned as she sees the image in her crystal apple. "And... two lights appeared showing of the children facing him, and..." The glow died over as she stared. "That's... all I can tell."
Allie looked shocked as Iris started to cry hearing that Yuya was being mean.
"Aura is this is a trick to take Yuya-"
"It's not." Aura looked at Zuzu who was looking to yell at Aura for this. "I was doing what I was doing as a fortune teller. But... I don't really know what this was all about from what I've seen. Some kind of darkness had taken over Yuya."
"Do you know what kind?"
Aura shook her head from Tate's question. "I'm sorry, that part alludes me. But... Iris, and this boy with her are seen facing him."
"She's just a baby though." Allie frowned hugging Iris close.
"I'm sorry... I don't know what to tell you now." Aura apologized over with a bow.
They looked nervous only for a woman to walk up.
"We're going to be starting the opening ceremonies soon." she told them.
They looked over nodding as the woman walked off before Zuzu shakes her head turning to Allie. "Well nevermind that image! Iris will be fine with all of us Allie, nothing will take this away!"
She nodded only to frown. "I wish Yuya was here."
"I am here." Yuya's voice said from behind as they turned seeing he's walking in. "Sorry it took me a while, did I miss anything?"
"I'll tell you later Yuya, let's go to the opening ceremony." Zuzu mentioned. "We'll see you later Gong."
Gong waved with a smile as they were called up heading over. "Walking into the spotlight now are students from that small training facility for Dueltainers, the You Show School!"
They arrived in the stadium where a large crowd is cheering for them. They smiled waving at that as they walked in while Allie nervously took Yuya's hand. Yuya smiled to her squeezing her hand softly.
"Next up, the students of our very own Leo Institute of Dueling, the favorites to win every division this year." the woman announced.
"Last year, Leo dominated the championships by winning all three divisions. With the largest contingent if duelists in this year's championship, they're a hands-down favorite to make another trophy sweet." Joy announced as You Show could see that Kit, Dipper, Julia, and Sylvio were among the Leo Students alongside Shay.
"He looks kind of scary." Allie shivered seeing Shay.
"Just stay close to me." Yuya said holding her hand before he glared at Sylvio not forgetting his earlier stunts while the boy noticed him but only smirked turning his attention away.
"Now everyone received a card when they entered, install it into your Duel Disk to see who your first opponent will be." the woman stated.
So they all inserted there cards checking over as the system waited before there opponents are revealed to them.
"I'm dueling Julia?" Zuzu mentioned seeing her opponent.
"Oh really?" Sora blinked before grinning. "Well Zuzu show her that your training has paid off from you learning Fusion."
"Right." She nodded as Yuya frowned.
"I'm dueling Sylvio again." he mentioned while Allie blinked.
"My opponent's from Leo too, his name is Riley." she told them showing a picture of a boy in a blue hoodie.
Yuya smiled hugging Allie with one arm while keeping his balance with Iris. "Well me, and Iris are wishing you luck Allie."
"Thanks." she smiled before blinking. "Oh, my duel is first."
Iris giggled over reaching to hug Allie. Allie smiled hugging her close. "Thank you sweetie."
"Well let's head over where your area is." Zuzu smiled offering a hand.
Allie nodded smiling as they all walked over to her field to duel Riley.
"Allie's already number one in our family hall of fame! Hey! Sweetie-pie! Over here!" Mr. Mizuto having arrived with his wife walked together to the field with You Show moving a camera over as she turned around confused before waving to the camera with a smile, "Isn't she adorable?"
Allie blushed a bit but smiled waving as she ran up where she saw Riley. "Hi, good let's have a super fun match."
"Uh huh." Riley nodded quietly.
"Go, Allie, go!" You Show cheered.
"Now it's time to reveal the Action Duel for this duel!" Joy called, "It's the hot spot known as Sun Valley! What a glorious locale for a duel! Our two contenders couldn't have asked for a more glorious field!" At that they appeared in a desert with two cliffs in between them while a sun is beating on them.
Sun Valley
Action Field Spell
You can use Action Cards, but you can only have 1 Action Card in your hand.
Allie smiled at that as she began the Action Duel chant "Duelists meeting in the sandy deserts!"
"Can we just get started?" Riley asked quietly with no real energy in his voice.
"Kicking in the desert for the action duel!" Allie continued.
"I'm sure you'll be great..." Riley trailed off.
"Thank you, but a little enthusiasm wouldn't hurt, you know." Allie told him. "Ready...!"

If you have an "Aquaactress" monster in your GY: Target 1 monster on the field; until the end of this turn, its effects are negated, its ATK/DEF become 100, also it is unaffected by your opponent's card effects.
"Since an Aquaactress is in the graveyard, Vergil loses it's abilities, it's attack, and defense points become 100, and it's unaffected to your cards!" A storm enveloped Vergil aging him.
Vergil: (Effects Negated/ATK: 2500 - 2400 = 100/DEF: 1000 - 900 = 100/Unaffected to Riley's card effects)
"Then I activate the Action Spell, High Dive!" Allie added using an Action card.
High Dive
Action Spell Card
Target 1 face-up monster on the field; that target gains 1000 ATK until the end of this turn.
"Dolphin gains 1000 attack points until the end of the turn!" Allie called as Dolphin powered up.
Aquaactress Dolphin: (ATK: 1800 + 1000 = 2800)
While Graff slashed, and diced Dwaramis, Dolphin retaliated against Vergil firing a water blast over piercing through Vergil destroying him while Riley raised an arm. (Riley: 1300/Hand: 0)
In a special room Henrietta frowned. "What do you make of her Declan?"
"Her new skill is certainly impressive if she was able to plan a move like that against Riley eliminating over half of her life points." Declan answered over seeing the duel. "Of course, Riley still hasn't even begin to get serious."
Henrietta nodded thoughtfully. "We'll see what happens."
Back at the duel...
Riley still had his position of holding an arm out from the force of the blow.
"Yeah Allie landed a good blow!" Tate cheered over.
"Yeah, but the duel is far from over." Yuya mentioned.
Just then Riley raised his head showing a more focused look that Allie blinked from. "As Vergil is destroyed, I draw a card." Riley drew getting to his Main Phase 2. "And as I have no Spells or Traps on the field, I can summon Draghig, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss."
At that another fiend rose up growling shaping as a dragon.
(Attack Position)
Draghig, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss
DARK
Level 3
Fiend/Effect
ATK: 1100
DEF: 900
If you control a monster that is not a "Burning Abyss" monster, destroy this card. You can only use 1 of these effects of "Draghig, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss" per turn, and only once that turn.
● If you control no Spell/Trap Cards: You can Special Summon this card from your hand.
● If this card is sent to the Graveyard: You can choose 1 "Burning Abyss" card from your Deck and place it on top of your Deck.
"And now overlay!" Riley raised an arm as the two monsters on his field turned purple moving into the Overlay Network.
"Synchro and Xyz?" Sora questioned as he was now interested.
"Warrior of the Forbidden Contracts! Reach forth, and find the Light of the Eternal, and lend me your power! Xyz Summon! Rank 3! Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss!" A brown suited male warrior rose up readying on a knee.
(Defense Position)
Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss
LIGHT
Rank 3
Warrior/Effect/Xyz
ATK: 1000
DEF: 2500
2 Level 3 monsters

If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Battle Phase. If this card is sent to the GY: You can target 1 "Burning Abyss" card in your GY, except this card; add it to your hand.
(ORU: 2)
Allie's eyes widened seeing a Synchro monster and an Xyz Monster.
"I end my turn." Riley then turned to look for an Action Card while Tetra rose up back to the field.
Riley's Hand: 0/Field: Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss (Defense Position)
Allie: 3700
Hand: 2
Field: Aquaactress Dolphin (Attack Position), Aquaactress Tetra (Attack Position)
Riley: 1300
Hand: 0
Field: Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss (Defense Position/ORU: 2)
Allie 3rd Turn:
"Okay..." Knowing this is gonna be tougher, Allie drew. "I draw!" She looked over as Riley grabbed an Action Card to be ready.
"Come on Allie, you can win!" her father cheered for her.
Allie added her drawn card to her hand. "Well first Tetra's ability adds Aquarium Stage back to my hand!" The card ejected as she shows the card.
"Wait wasn't that effect negated?" Frederick recalled that Aquaactress Dolphin summoned back Tetra but it didn't have it's ability, and now the effect is back in action which confused him.
"Oh yeah, that's a good point." Tate agreed.
"It was cause of Farfa. It's effect banishes a monster until the end of the turn, and when it leaves the field, and then returns later all the effects that was effecting Tetra no longer apply so Allie can use Tetra's ability again since Farfa removed the drawback Dolphin placed on it." Zuzu explained over to them.
"Oh, ok that makes sense." Tate nodded with a smile.
"Okay now I summon my second Tetra!" Allie summoned her second copy of Tetra.
Aquaactress Tetra: (Attack Position)
"Then I activate Aqua Story - Atlantica!" Allie activated a spell.
Aqua Story - Atlantica
Normal Spell Card
If you control more monsters then your opponent, and at least 1 of them is a "Aquaactress" monster: Tribute all monsters you control, then Special Summon 1 "Aquactress" monster from your Deck or GY who's Level is equal to the combined Level of the monsters Tributed. You can only activate 1 "Aqua Story - Atlantica" once per turn.
"Since I have more monsters on my field with one of them being an Aquaactress, I can sacrifice them all to summon a monster with the same level then all of them combined!" Both Tetras, and Dolphin vanished as the number 6 appeared above her.
"That can only mean one thing!" Yuya grinned.
"Now come Aquaactress Arowana!" A big actress fish rose up on the field grinning.
(Attack Position)
Aquaactress Arowana
WATER
Level 6
Aqua/Effect
ATK: 2000
DEF: 2000
Once per turn: You can add 1 "Aquaactress" monster from your Deck to your hand.
"Her ace." Zuzu smiled as Iris giggled happily clapping at seeing the fish.
"Due to her ability, I take an Aquaactress to my hand!" Allie added a card. "Then I activate Aqua Story - Gulf Shore!"
Aqua Story - Gulf Shore
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 "Aquaactress" monster you control: Special Summon 1 "Aquaactress" monster with equal or lower Level from your hand, then if only your opponent controls a monster from the Extra Deck, you can target 1 card in your GY; add that target to your hand.

"So thanks to it, I can summon Swordtails!" Swordtails rose up from her hand readying.
(Attack Position)
Aquaactress Swordtails
WATER
Level 4
Aqua/Effect/Tuner
ATK: 1000

"Then I take a card from my graveyard back to my hand!" Allie added a card back. "And as Swordtails is summoned I can summon back Tetra from the graveyard in Defense!"
Tetra rose up again bubbling.
Aquaactress Tetra: (Defense Position)
"Next Tetra adds another Aquarium to my hand." Allie added a third card again. "And now Swordtails tunes level 1 Tetra!" Swordtails turned to 4 rings while Tetra turned to 1 star synchronizing.
(LV: 4 + 1 = 5)
"Level five now?" Kit questioned.
"So I Synchro Summon! Aquaactress Oscar!" A leopard patterned fish in the same style actor costume rose up bubbling.
(Attack Position)
Aquactress Oscar
WATER
Level 5
Aqua/Effect/Synchro
ATK: 1700
DEF: 700
1 WATER Tuner + 1 non-Tuner monster
If this card is Synchro Summoned while you have a "Aquarium" Continuous Spell on your field or GY: You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; negate it's effects. You can only activate this effect of "Aquaactress Oscar" once per turn. Your opponent cannot target other "Aquaactress" monsters you control for attacks, or for effects.
Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss: (Effects Negated)
Riley blinked from this as Allie explained. "As Oscar's Synchro Summoned, the effects of Dante are negated! Then after that, I activate the three Aquariums I recovered!" So Set, Stage, and Lighting rose on the field again which used up her hand.
Aquarium Stage: (face-up)
Aquarium Set: (face-up)
Aquarium Lighting: (face-up)
Aquaactress Arowana: (ATK: 2000 + 300 + 300 = 2600/DEF: 2000 + 300 + 300 = 2600)
Aquaactress Oscar: (ATK: 1700 + 300 + 300 = 2300/DEF: 700 + 300 + 300 = 1300)
Riley's eyes widened in shock seeing that as he looked for an Action Card. He however sees he already has one.
"Alright now Oscar attack Dante!"
Oscar: (ATK: 2300 x 2 = 4600/DEF: 1300 x 2 = 2600)
Oscar charges in tackling Dante destroying him as Lighting had him stronger while Riley braced himself. But he looked over. "The effects of Dante, Draghig, and Graff now activates in the graveyard!"
Allie's eyes widened in shock as he glanced at his Action Card while also checking to see where any others were just in case.
"First Dante adds a Burning Abyss back to my hand!" Riley takes a card adding it. "Next Graff summons a Burning Abyss from my Deck!" A second Cir rose up.
Cir, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss: (Defense Position)
"Lastly, Draghig places a Burning Abyss card from my Deck, and places it to the top." Riley finishes as he arranged his Deck placing a card on top.
Allie frowned but nodded calling. "Then Arowana!"
Aquaactress Arowana: (ATK: 2600 x 2 = 5200/DEF: 2600 x 2 = 5200)
Arowana fired a large attack which engulfed Cir destroying it while Riley stepped back before calling. "Cir's effect now activates! It summons a Burning Abyss from the graveyard! So rise again, Vergil!"
Vergil rose up again readying.
Vergil, Songwriter of the Burning Abyss: (Defense Position)
"Allie has an advantage but not a big one." Yuya noted.
Allie frowned before taking an Action Card. "I end my turn."
Allie's Hand: 1 (Action Card)/Field: Aquaactress Arowana (Attack Position/ATK: 2600/DEF: 2600), Aquaactress Oscar (Attack Position/ATK: 2300/DEF: 1300), Aquarium Set (face-up), Aquarium Stage (face-up), Aquarium Lighting (face-up)
Riley 3rd Turn:
"My turn, I draw!" Riley drew the card he placed on the top of his Deck.
"Come on Allie..." Yuya whispered nervously.
"First by discarding the card I added back which is Farfa, I can shuffle Stage back to the Deck!" Riley discarded as Vergil's song strums made Stage vanish back in Allie's Deck. "And as Farfa was sent to the graveyard, Oscar is banished until the end of the turn!" Farfa appeared chanting it's spell making Oscar vanish leaving Oscar on Allie's field with Set, and Lighting to help it.
Iris started to cry again thinking her mommy was in trouble.
"And now I switch Vergil to Attack Position!" Riley changed mode as Vergil stood up.
Vergil, Songwriter of the Burning Abyss: (Attack Position)
"And now Vergil attack Arowana!" Riley called as Vergil charges in at Arowana who prepared itself. "And I activate the Action Spell, Zero Penalty!"
Zero Penalty
Action Spell Card
Target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; its ATK becomes 0.
"Arowana's attack points become 0!" Riley called over as electricity coated Arowana.
"This is really bad!" Tate cried fearfully.
Allie only smiled. "Your great Riley, but I'm sorry, I beat you."
"Huh?" Riley asked in confusion.
"I activate No Action!" Allie activated her Action Card.
No Action
Action Spell Card
Negate the activation and the effect of an Action Spell Card, and if you do, destroy it.
"So Zero Penalty is negated!" Zero Penalty is destroyed as the lightning faded from Arowana which she grinned before blasting Vergil.
Arowana: (ATK: 2600 x 2 = 5200/DEF: 2600 x 2 = 5200)
Riley's eyes widened as the blast struck Virgl and sent him crashing to the ground.
Allie: 3700
Hand: 0
Field: Aquaactress Arowana (Attack Position/ATK: 2600/DEF: 2600), Aquarium Set (face-up), Aquarium Lighting (face-up)
Riley: 0000
Hand: 1
Field: Nothing
Allie wins!
"And with that the victory for this match goes to Allie Mizuto!" Joy announced over with a smile as the field vanished.
Henrietta's eyes widened slightly seeing that. "Claude, get me her dueling records from when she first enrolled at You Show until today, and also... the date her child was born."
"Right away Madame Chairwoman." Claude nodded walking off to collect the records.
She nodded as she looked at Riley though to his shock instead of disappointment like he expected she looked more thoughtful and contemplative.
Allie walked over smiling offering a hand to Riley. He nervously took it. "Congratulations."
"You should get some too. Your really strong." Allie smiled to him.
Riley just nodded nervously.
Ulrich362: Allie managed to beat Riley, but I have a feeling Henrietta has something in mind.
bopdog111: What is she thinking of?
Ulrich362: Maybe we'll find out in the next chapter... of course we'll also see a rematch and a slightly sad farewell. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
