"It is way too early." said Aster as he yawned once more as he was out of his bed. He yawned once more as he got to his slippers, which were green and in the shape of a frog. His pajamas looked pretty much the same as he did with his regular look and outfit, however, there was one massive difference. It looked more comfortable to wear.
He began to rub his eyes as he yawned. He looked at his watch and to his surprise, it was 6:30, way too early even with his standards of usually waking up at 9 AM. He yawned once more as he could feel the cold air going towards his skin as he scratched his stomach. He shook his head to wake himself up, but that wasn't working.
Aster walked up to the kitchen, opened up the pantry and took a cup of coffee, alongside some sugar. He placed it in his coffee maker and began to make some coffee for the day. He may be a teenager, but he quickly got into the stuff when he was 13 and he had to drink these to keep up.
Aster scratched his head as he yawned once more. He walked to the fridge and opened up his fridge and took jam from it that was freshly made. He opened the cupboard that held the bread and took a butterknife. He opened up the jar and placed his butterknife inside of the jar as he spread it on his bread.
He walked out of his yacht's kitchen to enjoy the view, enjoying the tide of the ocean hitting the sides of his boat as well as the birds chirping. He then sat down as he took a bite out of the jam and nodded without thinking about it much. The jam was made professionally and was tested by several health inspectors to be at top priority and it showed that it was really well made.
"Who knew that the winter breeze here could be so relaxing?" asked himself Aster as he took another bite out of the piece of bread. He then took out his remote and pressed it to see what was going on on the television.
The first show was a show by the name of Doofy The Dragon that showed a rather sad dragon that… did not have a good childhood or life at all. "Nah, not now… how is still a kid's show?" asked himself Aster as he flipped to a different channel and he saw it was Dora the Explorer and he didn't even bother with that one.
"KILL YOUR FAMILY! KILL YOUR FAMILY! KILL YOUR FAMILY! KILL YOUR FAMILY! KILL YOUR FAM-"
"Nah, not the Kill Your Family show. It really fell off during Season 13. A shame too, Season 4 of it was the best Season in a show I have ever seen." said Aster as he flipped to a different channel. The Kill Your Family show has pretty much run its course and it was getting staler than white bread at that moment. How on Earth it has more Seasons than The Simpsons is beyond him.
"Time for Charleyyy. Who likes Charleyyy? We like Charleyyy! Everybody loves-"
"Not in the mood for Charleyyy and Friends right now." said Aster as he didn't want to see Charleyyy and Friends at the moment. Sure he liked the show fine, but only when his brain was more than just starting out. The show Charleyyy and Friends is a show about a 20 something year old man that acts like a man child for a good 20 minutes.
He skipped through several commercials for Long John's Pizza, Speedy Pirates Pizza, Whale Hunting and more, all featuring the same guy that looked like he was from Brooklyn and he always wore a T-shirt He even went on Cartoon Network and saw it was Teen Titans Go so he shrugged his shoulders, thinking it wouldn't hurt a bit to watch.
After watching an episode where the team made the rich people pay their taxes, he heard that his coffee was ready and he was the type of guy that like his coffee boiling as he walked towards the cup of coffee and took a sip of that magma hot coffee.
Aster then walked towards the TV and began to flip over the channels as he then got to a news anchor laughing his butt off like a buddy of his told a funny joke, "Those penguins are going to have a hard time in Africa, that is for sure and yes, I am alive." the news anchor said as his name was then revealed to be John McChansen.
John then regained his composure as if he didn't just send an animal that is supposed to be in the Arctic to the hottest continent, "In other news, two duelists have quickly got to the ranks of "Champion" from different countries! In Korea, one duelist rose up to the top as Zane Truesdale, or as he is now known as Hell Kaiser, won against the duelist, Ham Kyu, in a climatic duel with Hell Kaiser standing on top." said John. The Screen then showed Zane using his Chimeratech Rampage Dragon to destroy his opponent's Armageddon Knight.
Aster stopped drinking his coffee as he heard the news. He frowned heavily seeing the man that he defeated have a look like stone cold killer would have really made him feel bad for the guy. Even though he did beat him, he couldn't have predicted something like this to happen to him.
The Grand Jupiter appeared beside him as he narrowed his eyes, knowing full well that the energy he felt was not that of The Light Of Destruction nor that of the Gentle Darkness, but rather a different source, however, he can locate where it was due to it being way to small for him to even notice. He will keep an eye out for him though.
If Aster was honest with himself, he has to admit this.
That is a nice jacket.
John then had a different image as it then shook Aster to his core as he saw the man in question. "Next up, during the Norway Championship, the finale between the country's Champion, Kaare Pedersen, lost the duel against the challenger himself as the Norwegian Champion is none other than Kyle Jables, otherwise known as his more known name, The D!" exclaimed John as then the screen showed The D summoning out his Darklord Zerato slashing Kaare's Troposphere.
Aster immediately stilled as soon as he saw his adopted father on that screen and if he could look closer, he could see that the man had no more love of dueling, seeing it more as a game than anything else, but more importantly, he could see the darkness inside of him.
He could see the malicious look of his eyes sometimes when he was a kid, but at this time, it was more clearer which confused him as he never saw him this concentrated before in his life. Even for someone that was like him, he could see the kindfulness almost disappear in these situations.
Why were they showing him these images and footage? Why now? Why did either of them right now and now, both of them at the same time as it almost seemed like they looked each other in the eyes, ready for a brawl, but Aster sighed.
"On other news! Leprechauns, are they-"
"They are full bologna sometimes." said Aster as he clicked off his TV as he stretched out his back and yawned immensely. He took a bite out of his jam as each bite was more flavourful, but he wasn't getting out there as a good breakfast if you want to get full. He then took the cup and began sipping it. He turned over to Duel Academy.
"I wonder if they are working at this hour…" said Aster as he then placed the now empty cup of coffee in the sink. Thinking about going to Duel Academy at this time.
Later
It took Aster around 15 minutes to get from his yacht, which he closed all the windows and doors so not one moron tried to steal his stuff. He changed into his pjs, that looked like his suit, to his actual suit as he continued to walk towards Duel Academy. His entire closet is filled with those suits.
He hummed a song while he was walking towards Duel Academy and saw it was still open which was strange to him since it was both a. A Saturday and b. It was winter break, so to see it was still open was kind of crazy, but he didn't mind that in the slightest as he continued to walk towards where there were sandwiches and hot dogs.
Aster managed to get to the room that has the sandwiches and saw that it was empty, which makes sense. Who would be here on a winter break and on a Saturday while also being 7:30 AM. He walked over to the cart that had the wrapped sandwiches as he wanted to eat something from and especially try the Golden Eggwich.
From what he understood, The Golden Eggwich is basically a one of a kind sandwich in which a chicken sprouts out a golden egg which was not turned into a profit, but rather into a sandwich that tasted the same way cold water tastes in 3 AM which only meant it was a godly taste.
Aster walked confidently, trying to get the best sandwich first try as he did try to listen from one of his newer friends' advice of trying to feel the sandwich the best he could to see for the soft spot as he picked one and felt it was soft. Aster smirked as he then grabbed the sandwich.
He took off his wrapper and he opened his mouth and then…
Crunch!
His eyes shot upwards.
"OW! What the hell?! Clams?! Who the flying hell has clams in a sandwich! Not to mention, they are empty!" yelled Aster as he threw the wrapper to the trash can as he successfully made it land there without a problem as he tried to wash out his mouth from that disgusting and hard taste from his mouth.
"Aster? Why are you here?" The boy turned around to the source of the voice and saw Bastion Misawa.
"Oh hey man," said Aster as he tried to get that taste out of his mouth, "I am trying to get the Golden Eggwich from this cart." The Hero duelist said as Bastion narrowed his eyes at that.
"Really?" asked Bastion as Aster nodded.
"Yup, but it is getting impossible, man! Legit." said Aster as Bastion then walked towards the cart as he dove his fist into the cart. "I won't bother with that. You might get used socks inside of that. I once saw someone get a sandwich out of a sandwich. I tried my best to get to that sandwich, but nope, it wasn't there-"
"Found it." said Bastion as Aster turned his attention to Bastion as he got a sandwich from the cart. He then took the wrapper out of the sandwich and took a bite as he nodded with a smile on his face. Hes swallowed, "I found the Golden Eggwich once more." said Bastion with a happy smile on his face.
"Dude… how?" asked Aster with open eyes.
Bastion chuckled, "Well to put it simply, remember the advice I gave you?" Aster nodded, "Well, I should've been more specific about it, sorry. While the inside of the bun is rather soft and squishy, you also need to know what is inside of it by its texture. If you simply did that, you would've gotten a better sandwich." said Bastion as he took another bite.
"Ah, I see. Honestly, that is a good strategy, nice one." said Aster as Bastion smiled at that.
"Why thank you. It is nice to hear someone talking to me at very least…" Bastion frowned before smiling back again, "Oh and before you ask, I am here to see if there are any new card packs lately. I heard that there will be a new supply of these Cyberse cards and including some Tuner monsters." said Bastion.
"Oh, that is not a bad idea. I could see if I can get some new cards for my deck as well, let's go and see, after I get a hot dog," said Aster as Bastion nodded.
"Alright, aren't you displeased that you didn't get your Golden Eggwich?" asked Bastion as he brought the sandwich to him, "We can share if you would like to."
"Nah, you won it fair and square. You can finish that sandwich," said Aster as he looked at the Ra Yellow, "You are really good at these things." said Aster as Bastion chuckled once more.
"Well, they do not call me The Golden Eggwich of Ra for no reason." said Bastion as he continued to eat the Golden Eggwich as Aster raised an eyebrow at that.
"The Golden Eggwich Of Ra? Like, from the Winged Dragon Of Ra? How cheesy," Aster laughed, "But still it fits you, see ya' later, I am going to get a hot dog from this Kolter fellow." said Aster as he began to walk away.
"See you later." said Bastion as the two walked away, one going to get a hot dog while the other went to get some new packs.
Meanwhile at the same time, two figures have been walking down the hallways, far behind Aster Phoenix, "So, you have decided to enroll here as a student, right Master Sartorius?" asked the now Obelisk White, the person that was the main cause of the Society Of Light, Celina Boyle as she looked at Sartorius with narrowed eyes.
"That's right Celina as I have several reasons to do so, but the main one is what one saying went like: Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer." said Sartorius with a smirk on his face as he continued to walk down the hallway. The idea of being close to the people he made sure to see the Light was an interesting idea that is for sure, but there is another side of this that could benefit him.
He could watch Jaden Yuki as much as he wants to and see how he would survive in a situation like this one, not to mention his allies that he knows haven't been transferred into seeing The Light like Chazz and Hassleberry, but also to the two duelists that he knew wouldn't go to the Society of Light. Sora and Ray due to one reason.
His sister sent them.
"Interesting, but why a student exactly?" asked Celina as she looked at him, "Because you do not really seem like someone that is the same age as us." Celina said as Sartorius raised an eyebrow at that.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Sartorius as Celina quickly looked away from him.
"Well… how do I say this?" Celina asked herself as they continued to walk in the hallway as Sartorius looked at her.
"Say what?" asked Sartorius with a curious tone.
"Well… you look older than us." said Celina as Sartorius stopped where he was going as Celina stopped as she turned to see him.
"Older? Celina, how old do you think I am?" asked Sartorius as Celina gulped which made him narrowed his eyes, "Celina… please, be truthful with me. I want to know your answer, your true answer."
Celina was silent as she gulped, "39?" she asked quietly, but she should've said that with a megaphone as Sartorius heard it loud and clear.
"39?!" Now, Sartorius was a calm individual that doesn't react to many things even during his duel against Celina, but this actually broke him. "You doubled my age, that wasn't even close to my actual age." said Sartorius as he placed his hand under his chin, unable to process that information.
"Wait, it wasn't?" asked Celina as Sartorius then looked at her.
"Yes! Wait a minute… when people ask these kinds of questions, they usually guess a little bit lower… Was that the little lower guess?" asked Sartorius as Celina nodded.
"Yeah, I thought you were 42!" Celina blurted out as Sartorius' mouth was wider than that of the Grand Canyon.
"What? I am 17!" said Sartorius as Celina then looked at him like he didn't say the most shocking thing she has ever heard in her entire life as he shook his head, "Can we… please go back to our conversation beforehand. I think you lowered my self esteem." said Sartorius.
"I am so sorry." Celina said genuinely. She then shook her head, still trying to ramp around her head that this man is 17 years old. "So, you enrolled as a student." said Celina as Sartorius nodded.
"That's right, as I thought about being close to our enemies would work things better in our hands. I already talked to Chancellor Crowler about this and he happily accepted my offer, though he did ask me to be a teacher here, but I declined." said Sartorius as Celina nodded as they continued to walk in the hallway.
"Ahh I see." said Celina as it was quiet.
"Say, I have been wondering about something. Where are the other members of The Society Of Light? I thought they would have been more here." said Sartorius as Celina then remembered all of the details.
"From what I can remember, Alexis is visiting her family to avoid suspicion, Skye is visiting her brother for the same reason, Ryuga went there to focus more of his studies, Rose wanted to go to her lake house to see her frog boyfriends," Celina shivered as she remembered dueling her, "Missy is actually here, listening to rap music and Reginald is talking to his father on the phone."
Sartorius nodded with that, "I see, well, that is good to hear. They have to rest until we fulfill our plans so that everyone could see The Light." said Sartorius as he then looked at Celina, "By the way, out of those foolish enough not to see The Light, which ones are here?" the man asked.
"Well, I think Yusuke isn't here, saying something about wanting to explore Battle City a bit more, Chazz is probably spending time with Kite and his mother, for Ray and Sora, I have absolutely no idea, Bastion is here I think. All that I know is that Syrus and Jaden are here." said Celina as she looked at him. "Why do you ask?"
Sartorius then grinned, "Oh nothing much, I was wondering if either of them are ready to see The Light." said Sartorius as Celina then grinned as well.
"Oh? Who will it be? Jaden? Syrus? Hassleberry? … wait what was the black haired one's name? Dastion?" said Celina as she kind of forgot about Bastion Misawa.
"Bastion."
"Yeah him."
"Well, I haven't done a tarot reading for him yet as it might be interesting to see what he might be. I already did for Syrus, but I would do it at a later time, I am afraid that Jaden won't be a part of us due to his deck as well as Aster's, which only leaves one man." said Sartorius as Celina instantly knew who it was, "Tyranno Hassleberry." said Sartorius.
"Him? Well, not to be disrespectful to you, but him? Out of everyone? He is a few decks short from a full duelist if you know what I mean." said Celina as she has only seen him duel once and he was getting his ass beat by a food deck of all things.
"I wouldn't be too sure if I were you, I did tarot reading for him and he represented The Strength, which like the name suggests, represents good will, strength and perseverance, which fits him to a perfect way. Which is why, today, I will be dueling him to be in The Society Of Light." said Sartorius as Celina looked at him.
"Well, if you are going, then I would love to see this match." said Celina as she was getting ready.
To see the two duel it out.
INTRO!

(Infest) This is such a crazy world

Sometimes it makes me lose sight of who I am
Zane Truesdale, Hell Kaiser sat on a throne against the duelists he defeated as Nightshroud circled around the man's body with a terrifying look on his face.
Do you want to leave the traditional ways?
Then we cut to Bastion Misawa looking at his desk with a sad look on his face as he had his new deck spread out as he tried to think of the best way of winning the duel.
Just don't make that decision for me
We then see both Jaden and Celina raise their heads at the same time with a split screen showing Jaden's right side and Celina's left side as it then switched sides a second later as then we see Jaden reaching out to a void as from the void tried to come out a hand in worry.

As I run
We then cut to Jaden and Celina as they were dueling as for a moment, Celina screamed out something.
Never again will I
Then everything else became background noise as then…
Return to your side
The two reached out their hands together, trying to end this battle.
I'm going to do things the way I want to
Jaden then looked at her for a moment as Celina then smiled.
I WANNA CHANGE
Then the battle continued to commence until one of them fell to their knees tired as the screen then became black.
(A/N: End Theme.)
In the Slifer Red Dorm, a lone Ra Yellow was sleeping on the top of the bunk bed, trying to get some Zs after studying all night for the previous nights in a row and what happened before that. It was around 2 weeks after Alexis dueled and lost against Skye Zaizen and when the whole Society Of Light came around.
Nothing notable happened except for 2 moments and that is a few days after the Society was formed in front of them, the gang heard that they had to go an exhibit for a special moment and for a few moments they were silent with even the Society Of Light not trying to jump them or anything. Though, Jaden did have to duel someone and his name was Lorenzo Ryusei.
He was a boy with a tough Brooklyn accent that would give Joey Wheeler a run for his money that was obsessed with Gradius the video game. He played a deck that was known as B.E.S which was based from the Gradius video game. With the cards known as Boss Rush and Cyber Summon Blaster, he was an actual tough opponent, but Jaden managed to come on top with summoning his Grand Mole, attacking Big Core and returning that card to the hand as then with a combo of Climax Hour and Elemental Hero Neos, he managed to win the duel.
Next was a few nights later when he got invited to a party in cave, which was a contract from Howard X Miller, Sartorius' lawyer, and if he didn't agree to a duel, the Slifer Red dorm would have been crushed and if he didn't arrive, the same result would apply. They then dueled and they quickly found out of Howard, or, X's strategy.
X played a Mill Deck like Yusuke as his Last name would suggest, but instead of sending his cards to the graveyard, he sent Jaden's cards from his deck to the graveyard instead. With a combo such as Trap Sluzer, Monster Register, which made the player send cards from their deck to the graveyard for every level a summoned monster had, Super Guard, which made his monster's unable to be destroyed by battle and Recycle Barrier, which made him unable to lose life points by battle damage, he proved to be a tough opponent, but by using his Electrum and Sparkman on his field, including using cards like De-Fusion and Flash Fusion, Jaden managed to stay on top of those duels.
Right now, Hassleberry was enjoying a nice snooze after the tough things that are known as exams, almost not even caring about the School Duel. Even ignoring someone opening up the door and sitting on the chair, as he began to think about all of the Dinosaurs in the world, living in harmony.
Then, out of nowhere, a meteor crashed on the ground, making the boy widen his eyes as he then fell down the floor, shocked at what even happened.
"OW! My buttocks!" yelled Hassleberry as he began to scratch his butt out of instinct, wondering what happened to them as he then looked up and he backed away once he saw what in his opinion looked like a pale vampire as he smiled devilishly towards him.
"Hello, Tyranno Hassleberry." said Sartorius in a polite, but ominous tone.
"Enemy spotted! Identity yourself right now! You are in enemy territory!" yelled Hassleberry as he pointed at Sartorius as he then stopped to think about looking at him, "Wait, hold on, how long have you been waiting for me to wake up?" asked Hassleberry as he was just sitting there patiently.
Sartorius already knew how long he was there, for 5 minutes, but he didn't want him to know, "Sorry, I do not know, I was simply waiting for you to wake up." said Sartorius as Hassleberry raised an eyebrow at him.
"Do you just love to breaking and entering someone's dorm room?" asked Hassleberry.
"The door was unlocked."
"Ah okay, that makes sense." said Hassleberry as he then looked at him in pure shock, "Hey, wait a sec, how do you even know my real name?!" Hassleberry jumped to his feet as he looked at Sartorius merely looked at him without being shocked or scared in the slightest.
"How I know people by their real name and interests are classified, but if you must know, let's just say a familiar person told me about you sometimes." said Sartorius as Hassleberry narrowed his eyes.
"What in tarnation are you even talking about? Who even are you?!" asked Hassleberry as he glared at the man, but the man didn't even flinch.
"Right, my apologies. Introductions come first into a professional setting, so I do apologize how I acted," said Sartorius stood up as he was now looking down at Hassleberry, which made the Dino boy shocked at how tall he truly was, "I am a manager for several professional duelists such as Aster Phoenix himself, I am Sartorius Kumar." He said.
"Sartorius? Sartorius?" Hassleberry repeated that twice as he tried to remember when his name was last spoken as then his eyes went wide as he looked at him with a deadly tone, "Oh, so you are the one that Ma'Am Boyle, Zaizen and Rhodes are like that, huh? Yapping about something about the Society Of Light and you?"
"Ah, they have been talking about me and the Society of Light? That is good to know that their interests truly mean a lot to them." said Sartorius as Hassleberry gritted his teeth.
"Oh don't give me that bologna! Do you know what have you done to the squadron?! What you have done to the Sarge!?" yelled Hassleberry as Sartorius looked at the boy.
"What are you talking about?" asked Sartorius in an innocent voice.
"You brainwashed them ya' jerk! You brainwashed them to join your stupid religious cult that seriously should get new colours cause that shade of white is killing my eyes!" yelled Hassleberry.
"I have done nothing towards them:" said Sartorius with a grin on his face as Hassleberry could've broken his teeth the way he was clenching them.
"Let me tell you something, Sartorius Kumar, Aster's manager and the source of the Society Of Light, I am tired of your shit and I am going to make sure that everything falls apart!" Hassleberry's eyes turned that into actual dinosaur eyes, "And if you don't think about moving away and stop your schemes, mark my words because I am going to stomp all over your plans!" Flames then went around Hassleberry's spirit as Sartorius smirked.
"This boy… Looks like my predictions are right once again. This boy is showing true will, strength and power in a span of a few seconds. The Society of Light could use someone like him, but I also sense a bit of… loneliness. Those will be changed," thought to himself Sartorius as he closed his eyes and reopened them.
"Now, now, don't be acting like that as if you are a child, Hassleberry, let's settle this in an old fashion way and a compromise. We duel right now. Whoever wins gets to choose what happens next, does that sound fair?" asked Sartorius as Hassleberry's eyes returned to normal.
"I suppose so. If I win, then your little club will go bye-bye." said Hassleberry as Sartorius shook his head.
"I am afraid that isn't possible, but how about this? If you win, then I will let anyone you want from the Society Of Light to get from it, but you can only choose up to 5 people, including your friends, does that sound fair to you?" asked Sartorius as Hassleberry frowned.
"Not what I wanted, but it is better than nothing I suppose, you are on! Like the Sarge always says, get your game on!" yelled Hassleberry as he then grabbed two duel disks, one for blue and the other for yellow as he then threw it.
"Right, let's get our game on, shall we." said Sartorius as they then began to walk out the dorm rooms.
They continued until Hassleberry stopped as Sartorius kept walking. He only stopped as he looked down on the opposite side was someone he didn't expect someone to watch this duel, "Ma'Am Boyle? What are you doing there?" asked Hassleberry with an unsure voice.
Celina jerked her head towards the Ra Yellow, "Oh, hi, Hassleberry. Oh nothing much, I am just going to watch this duel between you and Master Sartorius if that is alright with you." said Celina in a smile on her face, but the way she smiled was unnerving.
Hassleberry stayed quiet as he then shook his head, "Listen to me, Ma'Am! I am going to make sure that this bup understands that he shall never underestimate me! Cause when I am finished with him, he is going to lay down on the ground begging for mercy!" yelled Hassleberry as Celina only chuckled.
"Good luck with that, buddy." Celina said as Hassleberry saw Sartorius then reach to his side as he then jumped from the railings and on the floor as he then glared at his enemy. Making sure that he will pay.
Jaden then kicked down the door, with Chazz feeling a reason to smack Jaden upside the head for doing something stupid, with Syrus walking beside him, "Hey, I heard that a duel is going to commence! Who is going to duel?!" Jaden then turned to Hassleberry, "Yo! Hassleberry! And then someone that I don't k-" His eyes stopped once he looked at someone.
"Jay, is something wrong? You are usually excited to see a due- Oh." said Syrus as he then looked at what Jaden was seeing.
Celina was standing there with her new Obelisk White uniform and she looked different. Like something else was possessing her. It was tough to watch as Jaden stayed silent for a moment as he said through gritted teeth, "Celina…"
He gripped his fist into a ball, "I promise… I will make you not see The Light and save you!" Jaden made a promise to himself, something that he will make sure that it will come into a reality. He wasn't the only one to stop what they were doing.
While Aster and Bastion walked towards the mini mansion, Aster stopped as soon as he saw someone familiar to him right in front of him in a place that he never expected in his life. To see, Bastion looked at him, but all he saw was dread and anger in Aster's eyes as he gritted his teeth.
"Sartorius… why? Why did you do all of this? Why are you making him do all of this?! Why?" thought to himself as they watched Sartorius trying to figure out how to use the most important part of a duel while standing up.
Trying to figure out how to use a duel disk.
"What are you doing?" asked Hassleberry as Sartorius, for the first time, looked confused.
"I am sorry, how do you use this contraction? I have never used this whenever I dueled." said Sartorius as Hassleberry sighed as Celina narrowed her eyes.
"Just press the on button." said Celina as then Sartorius clicked the button and it was then activated.
"Oh… thank you," Sartorius turned to Celina and then back to Hassleberry, "Now, let's go, shall we?" asked Sartorius as Hassleberry grinned.
"Right."
"DUEL!" both of them shouted at the same time.
Hassleberry: 4000 lp
Sartorius: 4000 lp
(A/N: Play Ferevent Duel.)
Turn 1.
"I will start!" yelled Hassleberry as he then drew the top 6 cards from his deck as he then looked at his hand. He then looked over at a couple of old cards of him, but then he saw a couple of new cards that he never had as he smirked. He will try his best to use all of those new cards.
"Sabersaurus is reporting to duty!" yelled Hassleberry as he took a card from his hand, as then he slammed the card on his duel disk. On his field appeared a massive triceratops. It was a red triceratops with yellow pupils with red eyes as it had a green tongue, with sharp claws on its legs as there were claws on its head, body and even on the tail. The monster roared in power.
(Sabersaurus: Level 4 - Earth Dinosaur - Attack: 1900. Defense: 500.)
Aster then shook his head as he looked at him, "Dinosaurs? I heard that they got new cards by the name of Xeno Dinosaurs and even some monsters by the name of Transcendosaurus. I wonder he will use them." said Aster as he crossed his arms.
"Now, I will play the Field Spell, Jurassic World!" yelled Hassleberry as the Field Spell card was then inserted out as he placed it on his duel disk. The entire terrain then changed. In the background there was an active volcano, as there was a new forest growing beside them as the Slifer Red dorm then disappeared, with a massive pond beside him, as there were stone pillars next to Syrus and Jaden.
Jaden shook his head, "Jurassic World? Like the movie?" asked Jaden as Syrus shook his head at that.
"I am pretty sure that came before the movie, Jay." said Syrus as Hassleberry ignored the duo.
"Now this Field Spell is pretty well as it powers up its peeps and squadron with 300 attack and defense points!" yelled Hassleberry as his Sabersaurus then roared in power as it glared at Sartorius who didn't even flinch at that.
Sabersaurus: 1900 - 2200 attack/ 500 - 800 defense points
They whistled at that. Summoning out a Normal Monster that was a beatstick with over 2000 attack points was actually pretty impressive as most monsters have to work around that monster to just deal some damage.
Hassleberry then took a card from his hand, "I will then call a turn by setting a card face down." a card was set vertically behind Sabersaurus.
(A/N: End Theme.)
Turn 2. Sartorius - 4000 lp - 5 cards
"A Dinosaur Deck? How unique… You know, in my spare time I like to think about their duelists and their decks. Why you may ask? It is simple." Sartorius smiled as he looked at Hassleberry, "A duelist's deck represents their heart, soul and pride. Even a simple card can show many attributes of a deck, such as their Destiny."
Aster frowned as Hassleberry looked at him with an annoyed look on his face, "Oh yeah? What are you even yapping about?" The boy asked.
"Well I will explain it. For a reference, let's take Truesdale's deck there," said Sartorius as he didn't even need to turn his head for everyone to know what he was talking about. "His deck, Vechiroids, represent his respect of his brother, while also showing off his rather childish and incomplete form. That is not all, Celina's represents her pride that is like a lion and her moves similar to that of a beast in the night, Jaden's and Aster's love for Superheroes, while they have their differences as one is more childish while the other shows more of their calling card of being Heroes. The only one I can't really put a finger on is Bastion, but I can say it is because not even himself can put his own thoughts about his deck."
Everyone, sans Celina and Hassleberry, gasped at that as it was almost a 1 to 1 reason of them playing their decks with Bastion looking at his jacket with worry, trying to disprove what he said, but he could feel that maybe… He was right
"Your deck shows evolution as Dinosaurs were known for evolving and for their power, as your Tarot Card is that of The Strength, as even though you are physically the strongest, it could be argured you are the weakest mentally or emotionally, which is why I would like for you to-
"Will you be quiet!" yelled Hassleberry with gritted teeth. "I do not care about what you are saying! I am not weak! I am far from weak! I will prove that to everyone!" yelled Hassleberry as Sartorius chuckled.
"You are right, you are not weak, that is a true fact, but let's see how strong you really are. I will begin by playing my Time-Tearing Morganite!" as then up above Sartorius' head, appeared a single morganite that was tearing up the space time continuum. "For the rest of the duel, 3 effects will be applied." Sartorius explained calmly, "The first is a restriction. I can no longer play monster effects from my hand."
"Man, that must suck. Most deck can not even rely without effects from the hand." said Jaden as he looked at his deck as recently he got some new cards that heavily work with effects from the hand.
"I won't really say so," said Aster as he, along with Bastion, walked towards the duo, "His deck doesn't really rely on his monster effects from his hand. Maybe 1 or 2 from what I remember, but that is it." said Aster as he crossed his arms.
"Though, that might sound like a downside, I am not bothered by it as the other two effects are much better. I can draw 2 cards for every Draw Phase and I can conduct 2 Normal Summons every turn." said Sartorius as they were at shock at that powerful effect, "I will start by normal summoning Arcana Force XI - The Just."
On his field appeared a monster on his field as it then morphed into a creature. It was a monster with light orange eyes with green accents all over it as the skin of the monster was dark yellow as the base was that of a ball with the 3 legs holding up the massive ball. On the top of its head there was a light yellow symbol that was like the Monster Reborn.
(Arcana Force XI - The Just: Level 4 - Light Fairy - Attack: 1100. Defense: 1100.)
[Arcana Force XI - The Just: Level 4 - Light Fairy - Attack: 1100. Defense: 1100. Effect: When this card is Summoned; Flip a Coin. Heads: Target 1 monster on the field and the monster loses half of its attack points and this monster gainst the same amount until the end of your next End Phase. Tails: This monster loses half of its attack points as then a monster on your opponent's side gains those attack points.]
As then, a copy of the card appeared over The Just. "What the- What is this?!" yelled Hassleberry in shock as Sartorius chuckled in amusement.
"Do not be worried at all, Hassleberry. You see, my Arcana Force monsters are rather unique as it relies on a concept known as Destiny, you might have heard of it," Aster's eyes were shot straight towards Sartorius. "It is also based around the Tarot Cards and depending on what it lands on, you might get a positive or negative effect. You get to choose as it begins to spin."
The Just's card then began spinning as Sartorius' grin grew tremendously, "So what will it be? Will you let the hands of fate tell your fate?" asked Sartorius as Hassleberry narrowed his eyes.
"You can tell fate and Destiny it can kiss my behind, as I say Stop!" yelled Hassleberry as The Just's card then stopped as soon as it did.
"Right Side Up? That is good news, for me." said Sartorius as Celina's grin grew with every passsing second, "You see, The Just can now target a card on your side of the field and it loses half of its attack points while my monster gains those stolen attack points!" yelled Sartorius.
"Sam Hill!" yelled Hassleberry.
"Destiny is not in your favour! Scale Regulate!" said Sartorius as then a scale appeared inside of The Just as it then shot a beam straight towards Sabersaurus as it knelt down as The Just glew red.
Sabersaurus: 2200 - 1100 attack points
Arcana Force XI - The Just: 1100 - 2200 attack points
"That is not all, I will now summon my Arcana Force VII - The Chariot!" On his field appeared a massive octopus-like creature. It had a smaller head at the top of the monster as it had 6 mechanical arms as the bottom part had golden lining with green eyes as the bottom part of the body had tentacles.
(Arcana Force VII - The Chariot: Level 4 - Light Fairy - Attack: 1700. Defense: 1700.)
As then a second copy of The Chariot appeared above The Chariot as it then began to spin, "Well, looks like the hands of fate have been bestowed upon you, which side will land? The Right or the Down?"
Hassleberry narrowed his eyes, "Stop!" yelled as the card then stopped on where it was going as to their shock, it was one of the worst ones.
"Right Side Up? Well that means when your monster is destroyed by battle, The Chariot will then take control of that monster." said Sartorius in a calm manner, but they gasped hearing that.
"Ahh man! Not good! If The Just attacks his monster and Sabersaurus is destroyed, then it and Chariot will beat him!" yelled Syrus as he placed his hands on his head.
"That would cause an OTK! Or a One Turn Kill!" yelled Bastion in shock.
"Time to battle. Arcana Force VII - The Just then attacks your Sabersaurus. Scale Dominate." said Sartorius as then a massive scale appeared on the field as it then took a couple of energy from Sabersaurus and then it sprinkled in its energy as the scale was then tipped upwards in the air as Sabersaurus' flew upwards as the attack then landed straight towards the Dinosaur as it landed on its head.
Hassleberry: 4000 - 2900 lp
Sartorius: 4000 lp
"The Chariot then activates its effect. When a monster on your side of the field is destroyed, I can take control of it." said Sartorius as then tentacles went downwards the ground, but Hassleberry smirked.
"Looks like you couldn't predict this to happen! I activate my Trap, Supersoaring! This card targets a Dino in my graveyard or that is banished, and I can special summon him! Sabersaurus, you are back on petrol!" yelled Hassleberry as he took a card from his graveyard as he then slammed it.
From the trees ran through was Sabersaurus. The tentacles went to the ground to pick up its skeleton as it did nothing for it.
(Sabersaurus: Level 4 - Earth Dinosaur - Attack: 1900. Defense: 500.)
Sabersaurus: 1900 - 2200 attack/ 500 - 800 defense points
Celina whistled, "Nice way of dodging that effect, as Supersoaring would make it so that the targeted monster will be summoned on the field, completely skipping the effect of The Chariot."
"A well maneuver!" cheered Bastion for his fellow Ra Yellow.
"Thanks Private!" yelled Hassleberry.
"Interesting, you managed to avoid that move, let's see how you would survive the next one." He took his entire hand, "I will set 3 cards face down." three cards were set vertically behind The Chariot and The Just.
Turn 3. Hassleberry - 2900 lp - 3 cards
"And just like that, I managed to work through that without a sich! I draw!" yelled Hassleberry as he drew the top card from his deck as he then looked at it. He nodded as it was one of his newer additions to his deck as it is a pretty good card that would bring a certain type of Normal Spell cards to his deck, however, he will save that when he truly needs it as of right now, he didn't need it.
Hassleberry placed the card into his hand as he took another card from his hand, "The next monster front line and center is this bad boy! Black Brachios!" From the trenches, came running out a monster that was more than double their size as the monster roared in power.
The monster was Black Brachios. It was a large brachiosaurus as the scales of the monster was dark blue as the neck and body was that of light purple, as it had yellow claws, sharp teeth, red eyes and sharp spikes all around the monster's back, tail and even going upwards the head.
(Black Brachios: Level 4 - Earth Dinosaur - Attack: 1800. Defense: 1100.)
Black Brachios: 1800 - 2100 attack/ 1100 defense points
"An interesting monster you have there." said Sartorius as Hassleberry grinned ear to ear.
"Glad that you have that opinion because I am about to make sure you are going to cry back home to your mama with this effect, you see, when Black Brachios is normal summoned, I can switch that monster in face up defense mode!" yelled Hassleberry, "Earthquake!" Dino Boy yelled.
Black Brachios then used its hind legs to raise up in the air as it stayed upwards in the air for a few moments. The monster then slammed its hind legs to the ground, creating a small earthquake that actually affected people around the duel, not inside of the duel as Sabersaurus, Black Brachios and The Chariot stayed the same, while The Just was now in defense mode.
"Jackpot! Now, I will make my Black Brachios attack your Arcana Force 11 The Just with Rampage Force!" yelled Hassleberry as then the monster charged straight towards him, which resulted in Hassleberry getting a card from his hand in the process which Sartorius narrowed his eyes at.
"When a Dinosaur monster attacks a monster, I can activate this card! The Quick-Play Spell card, Dino Stomp!" yelled Hassleberry as then Black Brachios' legs then began to glow into a golden colour as it continued to charge towards the defense mode monster, "I can now target 1 Spell and Trap card on your field and destroy it! I will pick the middle one!"
As soon as Black Brachios ran towards one of Sartorius' set cards and it destroyed the second one, he then flipped over his Right set card, "Why thank you for your assistance, but for now, I activate Enchanted Javelin! When you declare an attack, the attacking monster's attack points are now transferred into life points!" yelled Sartorius as they watched in shock as some narrowed their eyes at that.
A javelin appeared that had a yellow orb at the top with a spear at the top with wings in Sartorius' hands as he then created an aura that began to circle around Sartorius as Black Brachios quickly destroyed the Just.
Hassleberry: 2900 lp
Sartorius: 4000 - 6100 lp
"Well, shoot… That doesn't change my attack! My Sabersaurus will make quick work of your The Chariot!" yelled Hassleberry as he pointed his finger straight towards the lone Arcana Force monster, hating the fact that he was able to recover life points during that attack, but still, it had to be done. "Double Impact!"
Sabersaurus began to charge straight towards the Chariot as it began to increase its speed faster and faster with every passing second, as the monster roared as it began to become hungry for blood as it then continued to charge at the monster and then struck the monster, creating a decently sized explosion.
Hassleberry: 2900 lp
Sartorius: 6100 - 5600 lp
Sartorius came out of that explosion looking like that didn't even hurt him as he then looked at his enemy with a grin on his face, "This power… is something I need. This power is almost to be worthy of a vessel:" He then shook his head for a moment.
"Not bad, though a predictable turn of events." said Sartorius as Hassleberry frowned at the man, but looked at his hand.
He sighed, knowing full well he can not make a turn go that fast usually as he then sighed, knowing that he has no Traps in his hand. Just 2 Monsters. "I call it a turn, your move, braid boy." said Hassleberry with a tone that showed disgust.
Turn 4. Sartorius - 5600 lp - 0 cards
"My turn and thanks to Time-Tearing Morganite's effect, I can draw 2 cards from my deck." Sartorius said as he drew the top 2 cards from his deck. He looked at the two cards as he then decided to play them, "I will first play my Spell card, Cup Of Ace." The Spell card appeared on his side of the field.
The Spell card began to rotate, "The clock of Destiny is rolling as if it lands Right Side Up, I can draw the top 2 cards from my deck, but if it is Upside Down, you draw 2 cards from your deck." said Sartorius as Hassleberry narrowed his eyes as the Spell card continued to rotate.
"Stop." said Hassleberry, but to his horror it continued until it reached to an ending that he didn't want to end on.
"Right Side Up. Thank you so much as now, I can draw 2 cards from my deck." said Sartorius as he drew the top 2 cards from my deck. He looked at the 2 newly drawn cards from his deck as he then took another card from his hand, "I will then play the Spell Pentacle of Ace."
Hassleberry groaned, "Not another one!"
"Don't be all grouchy like that as this might be your lucky day. You see, if this card lands Right Side Up, I can draw a card from my deck and I gain 500 life points, but if it lands on Upside Down, you can draw a card from your deck and you gain 500 life points. Let's decide our Fate shall we?" asked Sartorius as the card began to spin as Hassleberry was concentrated like never before.
"Stop!" yelled Hassleberry as then he grinned seeing the result. "AHH YEAH! It landed Upside Down, I can draw a card and gain some life points back!" yelled Hassleberry as he drew the top card of his deck as he glew red for a bit.
Hassleberry: 2900 - 3400 lp
Sartorius: 5600 lp
"Alright! That means that Destiny is on his side no more!" yelled Syrus as Aster then looked at him.
"I wouldn't say that. You see, Sartorius is a Skill Duelist as even when his Arcana Force monsters do not help him in a duel, he still manages to win the duel at the end as every move he makes is a move that would help him in a duel." said Aster as he narrowed his eyes, "Heck, I don't think I have seen him lose a single duel yet."
"Well, looks like this will be his first time losing one." said Jaden as he is sure that his friend can do it.
Celina grinned as he has no idea how wrong he was.
"I will summon my Arcana Force IV - The Emperor in attack mode." said Sartorius as then on his field appeared a monster. It was a machine with several orbs around his eyes that were red around his chest, arms and even wings, as the skin was gray and black at the same time as the bottom was that of a ball while the chest was that of a bodybuilder's as it had 2 mechanical wings at the back of him with tentacles around the monster.
(Arcana Force IV - The Emperor: Level 4 - Light Fairy - Attack: 1400. Defense: 1400.)
A copy of that card appeared at the top of the monster, "It does have an effect, however, I wouldn't bother if I were you as I sacrifice The Emperor," his machine then disappeared as Sartorius took the last card from his hand, "To summon Arcana Force XII - The Hangman." he said.
On his field appeared two things. One was purple liquid that was looking like a tree as it had an inconsistent body as the other body was hanging downwards as it then looked like a body with turquoise coloured liquid as it had 4 arms downwards with a sharp head downwards.
(Arcana Force XII - The Hangman: Level 6 - Light Fairy - Attack: 2200. Defense: 2200.)
As then a copy of the card appeared above them as it then began to spin around as Hassleberry gulped in fear of picking the wrong card. "What will you choose next? Right Side Up or Upside Down? No matter what you pick, your option will mean nothing to Destiny."
Hassleberry was frozen as he then shook his head, "Stop!" as then the card then stopped, "AWW DANG IT! NO!" yelled Hassleberry as it was Right Side Up.
"Do not worry as The Hangman is quite unique in many ways as this is one of the few cases when the Right Side Up is the downside as during the End Phase, it gets destroyed and I take damage equal to the amount that it had." explained Sartorius as Hassleberry blinked as he then grinned.
"Oh… HA! Yeah, take that Destiny, as nothing will stop the pain train from m-"
"Though, like I said before, that won't matter in the face of Destiny! I play Reversal of Fate! All the effects of Arcana Monsters on the field have their respective effects are now treated of the opposite effect!" yelled Sartorius as his lone set card revealed itself. The Hangman's Card was then switched to the opposite side.
"Are you kidding me?!" yelled Hassleberry.
"Nope and he is about to make your Dinosaurs extinct for the second time." said Celina with crossed arms.
"Time to battle. The Hangman will attack your Black Brachios! Hanged Fate!" yelled Sartorius as then from the purple tree then disposed the blue liquid as then the blue liquid then began to come straight for the brachiosaurus as it then covered the dinosaur as it then exploded once it used too much pressure.
Hassleberry: 3400 - 3300 lp
Sartorius: 5600 lp
Sartorius then smirked, "I no longer have any more moves to make as I end my turn with that." said Sartorius as then The Hangman flew towards Sabersaurus and covered its body, while crushing its body, making the monster roar in agony as it then exploded from too much pressure as it then went back to the purple tree
Hassleberry: 3300 - 1100 lp
Sartorius: 5600 lp
Turn 5. Hassleberry - 1100 lp - 3 cards
"Dang it, dang it, dang it. I lost my military team with just one turn! This sucks, but if The Sarge can do it, then so can I!" said to himself Hassleberry as he gripped the top of his deck as he then closed his eyes, "Come on, come on. I need the perfect card for the squad… please." said Hassleberry as he then yelled out, "It's mah turn! I draw!" the boy drew the top of his deck as he looked at it with a smirk on his face.
"Oh yeah!" yelled Hassleberry as he took the card and placed it in his hand as then, he took a different card from his hand, "Here is new the soldier of my platoon! Animadorned Archosaur!" Tyranno yelled out as a new member of his deck then showed up.
It was an archosaur that had orbs and marbles around the entire body as the top part of his body were marbles around the top part of his body with a few of them being light yellow as he had dark green orbs that were his eyes as on the bottom of the body were yellow and green orbs including yellow orbs that were like claws.
(Animadorned Archosaur: Level 1 - Light Dinosaur - Attack: 0. Defense: 0.)
Animadorned Archosaur: 0 - 300 attack/defense points
"When this new buddy of mine is summoned, either normally or specially, I can destroy 1 Dinosaur monster in my hand like my Black Stego," a card then exploded as a card popped out of his deck, "So I have 2 options. One is that I add 1 Reptile, Sea Serpent or Winged Beast monster with the same original Level as the destroyed monster or I add 1 Evolution Pill from my deck to my hand, I will pick my Big Evolution Pill!" He said as he took the card from his deck.
"I will then play my Big Evolution Pill! I tribute 1 Dinosaur Monster on my field in order to activate this card's effect!" yelled Hassleberry as Animadorned Archosaur then disappeared from his field as the Spell card then appeared on the field, "I can now normal summon a Level 5 or higher Dinosaur monster with no tributes! And the best part? It goes away after 3 of your turns!"
"Great Scott! That means that he can summon any of the powerful Dinosaur monsters to choose from. The Dinosaur monsters are known for having powerful effects and firepower. The only type that can go against them are Dragons." said Bastion as he placed his hand under his chin.
"May I remind you that he already Normal Summoned a monster from his hand?" asked Celina as they looked over and they realized that she was right. "He can't Summon anything from his hand no more."
Hassleberry smirked, "Are you sure about that, Ma'Am? Because I have cards in my hand to continue my plays, starting from here! I play my Quick-Play Spell card, Quick Summon! With this, I can summon monsters from my hand once more!" Sartorius was the only one that wasn't shocked from hearing that.
Hassleberry then reached for the last card in his hand. "Appear, the dino leader of the platoon! The one that exceeds power over anything else! Come as I Normal Summon! Mighty Dino King Rex!" as then from the volcano in the background, came out an eruption as then a dragon flew upwards with 2 massive, spiky wings that were purple and red as the monster flew down and showed that it was a combination of both a dinosaur and a dragon.
The monster had 2 heads as it had sharp teeth, red eyes, claws and spikes coming out of its head as the back of it was purple and the front was red as it reached down. The Dinosaur had 2 spiky massive tails at the back of the dragon, with sharp orange claws as it went downwards to see the spike of the dragon/dino combo.
(Mighty Dino King Rex: Level 9 - Earth Dinosaur - Attack: 3200. Defense: 1200.)
Mighty Dino King Rex: 3200 - 3500 attack/1200 - 1500 defense points
"Woah! That is one massive dragon! Or dino… Dragosaurus!" yelled Jaden in surprise as they were heavily shocked at what this man played for just a minute.
"Yeah, kinda reminds me of something that Rex Raptor would play." said Bastion as Aster narrowed his eyes at that.
"Now that you mention it…"
"Alright, now this beast may seem powerful, which he is, but this guy packs a lot more than a punch! You will see right now! Mighty Dino King Rex attacks your The Hangman with Mighty Breath!" yelled Hassleberry as the monster then began to upon up its two maws as then fire and ice began to form as then they were blasted at the same time, first freezing The Hangman right before burning it alive.
Hassleberry: 1100 lp
Sartorius: 5600 - 4300 lp
"That was a minor setback." said Sartorius calmly, but Hassleberry continued to smirk.
"Oh, really? Well, let's see if this can be a minor setback! You see when mah Mighty Dino King Rex destroys a monster by battle, it gains a second attack!" yelled Hassleberry as Sartorius slightly widened his eyes as everyone were at shock to hear that.
"Wait, hold up, what?" asked Celina in shock as she was not expecting a combo like that to happen.
"I am not holding up anything! Go, Strike of The King!" yelled Hassleberry as then the two monsters began to open up their maws as this time, energy and electricity began to form inside of their mouths as then they were shot straight ahead at Sartorius which he actually tried to cover himself from that attack.
Hassleberry: 1100 lp
Sartorius: 4300 - 800 lp
They were at actual shock at what they are seeing. He managed to over turn such a heavily damaged turn and field into a place that he can confidently be at the back with a grin on his face as he had a powerful monster on the field with no equal as Aster knows that there is not a monster in Sartorius' deck that can overcome the monster.
Hassleberry then looked over at the monster he currently had on the field with a smile on his face as during his next turn, if that fool tried to set up a defense with 2 monsters, his Mighty Dino King Rex can destroy up to 2 monsters on his field the turn it was not summoned in. Meaning that he will win in the next turn.
Hassleberry then crossed his arms, "Your move, creepy man. Let's see how you can handle my strength!" he yelled as Sartorius then smirked.
Turn 6. Sartorius - 800 lp - 0 cards
"Your strength? Hmm, interesting. Well, you showed yours, how about I show you my strength? Thanks to my Morganite Spell card, I can draw 2 cards from my deck." said Sartorius as he drew the top 2 cards from his deck as he then smirked. If all will go to his plan, he will win. All he has to do is have Destiny on his side, which… it was ever since he got that card.
"I summon my Knight Of Pentacles in attack mode." said Sartorius calmly as on his field appeared a monster that he used against Celina. It was a machine with 4 sets of arms, two of them being used as actual arms, and the others for blades, as the robot was blue, with green orbs all around it with a big red one as eyes as it wore a double edged spear.
(Knight Of Pentacles: Level 3 - Earth Warrior - Attack: 1000. Defense: 1000.)
As then a copy of that card appeared above the monster as it began to spin. "Not again!" yelled Hassleberry as he gritted his teeth.
"Don't worry, this card is actually quite simple and won't be that effective. What will be your choice? Will Destiny be on your side? Or mine?" asked Sartorius as he smirked quite evilly which made Aster narrow his eyes at. Something about that doesn't seem normal to him.
"Stop!" yelled Hassleberry as then the card stopped at the one place he didn't want it to stop at. "Ah, dang it!"
"Right Side Up? Well the effect is quite simple. My monster can not be destroyed by battle such a simple effect, that is understandable, but even so, I have a card that will bring your monster to its knees." Sartorius took a card from his hand as Celina looked over it as a smirk appeared on her lips.
"Oh, this is going to be fun." Celina said. Which worried them.
"I play the Spell card Riryoku." they widened their eyes hearing about that card. Oh no, something bad was about to go down. "I can target 2 cards on the field, one of them will get their attack halved while the other gains those to the amount that it lost. Meaning your monster will be sucked out of its life force." said Sartorius with a grin as then a red aura appeared around Knight Of Pentacles and a blue aura around Mighty Dino King Rex.
Knight Of Pentacles: 1000 - 2750 attack points
Mighty Dino King Rex: 3500 - 1750 attack points
"Wait a sec… No! You have more than enough to crush my platoon!" yelled Hassleberry in worry.
"That is the point of a duel. Go, Knight Of Pentacles, attack and destroy Mighty Dino King Rex! Slash of Predicament." said Sartorius as then the Knight Of Pentacles began to charge straight towards the massive dragon as it had its head down on the ground, looking extremely weak, as then it sliced both of its heads off at the same time.
Hassleberry: 1100 - 100 lp
Sartorius: 800 lp
And in just one turn, he managed to overturn Hassleberry's power in one turn using a monster that was by far his weakest monster he has ever used, showing that strength doesn't come from the massive beasts of nature, but rather a combination of the small guy that with the correct amount of planning can take out a freaking Dinosaur.
"Now that ends my turn and even the effect of my Riryoku, though I have to say, you are quite good, even with your problems." said Sartorius with a smirk on his face as Hassleberry looked at him in a weird way.
Knight of Pentacles: 2750 - 1000 attack points
Turn 7. Hassleberry - 100 lp - 0 cards
"W-What are you talking about?" asked Hassleberry with a curious tone.
"Well, I like to study my opponent's well before a match even begins so I could get a good grasp of them. Either mentally, physically or emotionally. Hassleberry, you represent the Tarot Card, The Strength as it represents courage, strength, determination and compassion, however, I feel as though you also show the reversed effects." said Sartorius as Hassleberry narrowed his eyes at him.
"What?"
"You see, the reversed means is that it is the opposite of what I meant and with that, I mean you represent self-doubt, raw energy and inner strength. Raw energy makes sense since you wanted to fight me the moment I revealed my name to you," began Sartorius as Hassleberry took a couple of steps backwards, "Self-doubt is actually something that shows in the depth of your soul."
Hassleberry scoffed at that, "Like what? Give me an example."
"You want an example? Alright, fine. Your abandonment Issues." Hassleberry's eyes were that of a cat's or more like a deer staring at a car.
"No… That is not true." Hassleberry said in defiance.
"Is it? Well, I can already tell that you are lying to yourself. Before going in Duel Academy, you had quite the past, didn't you?" said Sartorius with a smirk, "Even though your father was a Drill sergeant, you were quite the trouble maker, always getting into fights with people and gangs all the time, always making trouble wherever you went." he said.
"That's not…"
"Whenever you made a gang of some kind, you always make sure that you fight with them, fighting other gangs, though it didn't work out, didn't it?" asked Sartorius, "You were abandoned, always without a second thought. Tossed away like a pebble in someone's shoes, thrown away for eternity. You try to repress those thoughts, don't you? Those feelings you have. Am I correct?"
"No… you are not…."
"But here is something that I find fascinating. You clinged into a person when they defeated you when you applied to Duel Academy, am I right?" asked Sartorius as he then looked at Jaden, "You cling onto him like a dog. Even getting into a dorm that was lower than yours all because he lived in it, am I correct? Are you afraid of something? Being abandoned? Well, you won't be no more. You only have to join the Society Of Light, they will accept you. Come, you will be welcomed." said Sartorius as he showed of his teeth.
Celina was quiet about this as Syrus looked at Hassleberry with a different perspective with a sad frown on his face, with Aster glaring at Sartorius the entire time as Jaden had an unreadable expression on his face and Bastion looked at him in shock as he felt as though he related to Hassleberry in a way.
Even though it has never been talked about the entire time, Bastion has grown to think about that he might be abandoned soon enough by his friends. He felt as though he wasn't accepted even though they haven't shown those signs yet, but he felt them. Maybe, just maybe, joining the Society of Light might not be a bad idea…
Hassleberry looked at his hand as he then began to shake, "Me. Being abandoned, no, no, no, that is not true, that is truly a stupid claim to hear about! No way that might happen to me, they won't do that to me, right? Right?" as then a pit of despair began to fill his body as he didn't know what to feel.
To tell everyone the truth, Hassleberry hasn't been very truthful to anyone as he truly does care and love being in the same room and group as his friends as it finally showed that there are people that care and love him, but there is a pit inside of him that begins to grow the more he thinks about his past.
And there was one question.
Would they leave him if he was weak? He didn't play the best game, he was a bit of a jerk at the start, but that was the point to be a strong duelist. Though, every day he might think that if he doesn't do anything of worth he might be someone that no one would care about. A fraud if you would. Being thrown away like garbage for doing something out of his control is terrifying to him.
He then looked at Sartorius and maybe-
"Hassleberry, no! Don't do it! Don't fall in the Light, man!" yelled Jaden as they then turned to him, even Celina with a raised brow.
"Sarge?" He asked in a quiet tone.
"Keep fighting dude! Buddy, you can not let the man take control of you like that, messing with your brain is wrong on so many levels, you are better than that!" yelled Jaden as he gripped his hands into a ball. "He is trying to beat you with all of this hocus pocus nonsense, but if you just believe and trust yourself, then you can do it!"
"What if he is already… y'know?" asked Syrus as Jaden took a step forward.
"No way, that is not happening! You are one of the toughest people I have ever met as nothing will go through our friendship! Buddy, Sarge, no matter what, always think of yourself in these words! A duel is not over until the last card is played!" yelled Jaden, "It is going to be more than head games in order to take down Hassleberry."
Hassleberry smiled at him, "Thanks, Sarge, I got this, thank you for the kind words, as listen here buddy, pal! I am going to take down your club right here and now, as I will be the one that saves the day! I draw!" yelled Hassleberry as he then drew the top card of his deck and he then flipped it.
"OH YES! I drew my favourite monster! Thanks to Big Evolution Pill, I can normal summon this big guy in attack mode!" yelled Hassleberry as he slammed the card on his duel disk as he began to chant, "The monster of the old age, break the limits of Dinos and crush the Meteor with a swipe of your tail! I Normal Summon! Ultimate Tyranno!" An explosion happened behind him from just summoning this beast of a monster as the trees were now cut down.
The Dinosaur then began to walk forward as they looked at the monster in awe. It was the largest Dinosaur they have seen. It had red muscles at its legs with sharp claws for its feet and hands as it had what appeared to be a brown armour-like scales at the monster as it went upwards to his neck and behind it as it had sharp teeth with emerald eyes and claws at the top of its head. It had beige coloured neck and arms. The monster roared, shaking everyone to their core.
(Ultimate Tyranno: Level 8 - Earth Dinosaur - Attack: 3000. Defense: 2200.)
Ultimate Tyranno: 3000 - 3300 attack/defense points
"They were impressed by the massive monster that Hassleberry managed to summon in a single turn as the monster was straight up brimming with energy as the monster looked down at Knight of Pentacles as if it were its breakfast as it licked its lips at the monster.
"This monster will be the meteor that will wipe away your chances of beating me!" yelled Hassleberry as he then pointed his finger straight at Sartorius.
"Then if you want to win, then attack me." said Sartorius with no hint of being scared in sight.
"Since you asked for it! Ultimate Tyranno attack Knight Of Pentacles with Jurrasic King!" yelled Hassleberry as the large dinosaur let out a loud roar that temporarily deafened everyone at his becking call, as then, he began to charge the monster with all of the force of a freight train. The monster then continued to create mini earthquakes with every step. "Your monster ain't going to be destroyed, but your life points will take a plummet!" yelled Hassleberry with a smirk as Sartorius smirked back at him.
"That is an interesting thing that you just said, but let's test that shall we? As I couldn't do this without your help." said Sartorius as he then took a card from his graveyard, "I play from my graveyard Transaction Rollback."
"Wait, what?!" yelled most of them in shock.
"How did that get there?!" yelled Syrus in shock as Bastion then widened his eyes.
"Simple, if Hassleberry simply had that card not be destroyed by his Dino Stomp, he would've won the duel, but no, he wanted to go full force and look what it got to him." said Celina with a grin on her face.
"This card's effect is pretty simple. I pay half of my life points in order to banish this card from my graveyard in order to play a Trap card from my graveyard." a card popped out of his graveyard as he then took it, "I play my Enchanted Javelin!" His Javelin appeared in his hands as then he glew red, "I gain the amount of attack points your monster attacked me with, even though the damage is high, I will still survive as it is my Destiny." Sartorius said as Ultimate Tyranno smacked Knight of Pentacles into the forest, making Celina walk a few steps to the side as the monster then returned to the field.
Hassleberry: 100 lp
Sartorius: 800 - 400 - 3700 - 1400 lp
"Not bad, Hassleberry, if you didn't destroy my Transaction Rollback, I would've been with the wind by now." said Sartorius as he grinned while Hassleberry gritted his teeth.
His strongest monster was countered just like that. Sure he dealt massive amounts of damage, but it felt horrible to even continue the duel with this much of a setback. He looked at his hand and he sighed, knowing full well that he had made his best move possible and this was the end.
"Oh no…" said Syrus as he frowned seeing him like this.
"I call it a turn." said Hassleberry as he braced himself for the next turn.
Turn 8. Sartorius - 1400 lp - 0 cards
"Tell me, boy. Have you ever heard of the Domino Effect?" asked Sartorius as they were silent when they were looking at that man as he chuckled. "Silent, eh? Alright, that is fine. It is when one small motion is made that makes an impact over the course of the entire thing. One small move and the entire thing crumbles. A small mistake will lead to your undoing. You set up the first domino when you activated your Dino Stomp, but that doesn't matter, I was going to win either way. I draw!"
Sartorius drew the top 2 cards from his deck. One was Reverse Reborn, a pretty good Equip Spell card that is basically a Monster Reborn for his deck. However the effect does have its Upside Down effect which only meant that The Hangman could use it properly. Though there is 1 card that he was more interested.
It was ironic really.
"This will be your poetic finish. I sacrifice Knight of Pentacles," the small monster disappeared as he then took a card from his hand, "I will then summon this one! The monster that represents you! Arcana Force VIII - The Strength!" yelled Sartorius as a new monster appeared on the field.
On his field appeared a massive machine. It had massive shoulder proportions and it went downwards as it had arms that were black balls with spikes on them, as it was balancing on a black ball with blue coding, as it had blue lines all over the monster as it had 2 silver lines at the back of the massive monster. It had tiny arms around the mouth.
(Arcana Force VIII - The Strength: Level 5 - Light Fairy - Attack: 1800. Defense: 1800.)
"Oh no." said Hassleberry as he knew what was going to happen as a copy of that card appeared above the monster.
"You know the effect. You know the cause, but…" the card began to spin around, "Will Destiny be at your side? Will it help you or will it destroy you? Let's see the answers, shall we?" He said with a dark tone.
Hassleberry stared at the card spinning as he knew that if he was a second late, the card would lead to his demise, but he was already at the man's mercy at the current moment, as all that he did was planned from the start as he were nothing, but a puppet for him. The boy gritted his teeth as he only had to say 1 word, "STOP!"
The card stopped.
And it was at a place that he did not want it to stop at.
"Right Side Up… Thank you, I showed you what I meant that Destiny is not on your side and you were the cause of this Domino Effect. It is a bit ironic, don't you say? The Tarot Card that represents you is one that will be your demise." said Sartorius as The Strength then threw its hands at the Ultimate Tyranno, "His effect is a simple, but effective one. Your monster is now mine:" said Sartorius as everyone gasped hearing that effect, including Celina.
"WHAT?!" all of them yelled.
"No!" yelled Hassleberry.
"NO! HE LOST!" screamed Syrus.
Ultimate Tyranno roared in agony as then its eyes turned into the one that they could see in Celina's, Skye's or even Alexis', as it turned almost like there was no life in them as it then began to walk towards Sartorius, "Your monster saw the Light. Like you will." said Sartorius as he then began to raise his hand, "Ultimate Tyranno…"
The monster growled as he looked at Hassleberry who gulped as Sartorius' grin almost became that of a demon's, but held back a bit, "Crush him." He said in a deadly tone, more terrifying than the roar of Ultimate Tyranno as it began to charge straight at him as Hassleberry could do nothing, but drop his hands.
The monster turned around as he used his massive tail in order to smack him away, making the boy fly to the trees, but in real life, to one of the doors. Sartorius stood proud.
As he stood alone.
Hassleberry: 100 - 0 lp
Sartorius: 1400 lp
SARTORIUS KUMAR: WINNER!
"No… way…" said Basiton as he gripped his fist into a ball seeing this.
"I can not believe this is happening…" said Aster as he gritted his teeth.
"Oh no… oh no, oh no, oh no…" panicked Syrus.
Jaden on the other hand? Jaden was shaking. Not out of fear, but out of anger. He first got to Celina and Skye, made them do his dirty work in order to build this Society Of Light, then brainwashed the Obelisk Blues and Alexis, and now, he came here and made Hassleberry into another one of them. "Not him, please not him." said Jaden as he wanted to yell at the guy, however, Sartorius then looked at him.
They then saw his purple eyes beam in a brighther light than ever as a white aura surrounded him, making everyone stop. Aster glared at his now former manager as the spirits appeared around him, as The Grand Jupiter and Neos looked at him, "Neos, we have found its vassal." said The Grand Jupiter.
Neos nodded, "Right, however, I am more interested in her." Neos turned to Celina, who couldn't see him, "Sure, he may be the vassal, but Serena here has something deep in her. Something that I want to get rid off." Neos shook his head as he turned back at Sartorius, who to his surprise, smiled seeing him.
Sartorius then began to walk straight towards Hassleberry as Ultimate Tyranno, Jurassic World and The Strength began to disappear back into normal. "This was all meant to be, my friend. Every single action that you did has all lead up to this moment, the deciding moment of your life, the pathway of Light will soon stretch out before you." he stopped near Hassleberry, "Join us, my friend, as your true potential will be unlocked, The Light will be at your becking call at any moment you desire, as nothing will feel better tha-"
"Man, you sure do love yapping so much, dontcha?" asked Hassleberry as Sartorius was cut off as he then raised his head as to their absolute shock, his eyes weren't that of the Light.
No, it was that of a Dinosaur's.
"What?!" yelled Sartorius as he was genuinely taken aback from this. He knew that he had the ability to turn his eyes into that of a Dinosaur's, but to actually resist and negate The Light's influence was shocking to even think about that. "No one can just resist The Light."
Hassleberry grinned, "Well, I am not just anyone, I am Tyranno Hassleberry! Son of Jane Doe Hassleberry and Zhanna Hassleberry! But the thing here is boys, and Ma'Am Boyle, is that I am not just human," his eyes returned to normal, "I am also part Dino!"
They were silent.
"What." They all said in unison.
Hassleberry grinned, "Well, take attention to this scar down here." Hassleberry went down to his knee as he then revealed that he has a small scar on his knee, "Now this scar wasn't made by any injury. Sit back here, because he is a small story! You see, a few years ago, in a routine dig for Dinosaur fossils with my mammy, an accident happened as one of the workers hit the mountain accidently to create a landslide and nearly broke my leg in two!"
They all listened carefully to this insane backstory, "They had to operate extremely quickly, but there was an issue though. No bone structure was similar to mine, even with my pappy's, so they decided to use a different solution. They had to use the dinosaur bone that I dug up to save my life for good." said Hassleberry as he smiled thinking about that memory.
"Ever since that day, I had something new, something different that makes me me, something that makes me Tyranno Hassleberry. I have Dino DNA! Which makes me much stronger than your average joe and even on the level of the strongest human on Earth!" yelled Hassleberry, "So I am both a Dino and human, all packed together in order to create the greatest package you have ever seen!"
They were silent once more after hearing this man speak about his story.
"What-" began Sartorius.
"The-" Continued Bastion.
"Fuck?" finished Aster.
"He has to be making this up." said Syrus in the most bewildered tone he has ever said in his life.
"No, I think this is real. I saw it in a cartoon once." said Jaden as Syrus fell down anime style.
Celina placed her hand on her head, "So let me get this straight. You are part Dinosaur after getting your bone destroyed and used something that should not fit your body that is at least millions of years old. Breaking through everything that we have learned in biology. You quite literally slapped Biology in the face by merely existing." said Celina as she looked at a cliff, "I live in a circus and I am the clown."
"That's right. So no matter what happens to me, I won't join your club." said Hassleberry as Sartorius pondered around that fact.
There are currently 3 duelists that he could not control at this moment. Jaden Yuki, Aster Phoenix and Tyranno Hassleberry. Jaden Yuki and Aster Phoenix for the simple fact that their decks protect them from harm and The Light Of Destruction, but Tyranno Hassleberry? He can not be controlled by literally being built different.
"I see. Well, it was fun while it lasted, the duel has given me a lot of insight, both you as a duelist and how the rest of my classmates are doing." said Sartorius as Bastion looked at him.
"Classmates? What are you saying, are you a student here?" asked Bastion as Sartorius turned to see him.
"That's right, I decided to enroll as a student here to see what was the fuss about. Sure I am a bit older than the average freshman, but that doesn't mean anything as school is for everyone, right?" asked Sartorius as they were at horror thinking about the fact he is with them all the time, "Well, I have to go. As a freshman, I rather not stand out."
"Then get a haircut." said Hassleberry as Sartorius looked at him for a moment.
"Touche." said Sartorius as he began to turn around, "Well, that is an interesting turn of events, I will go and prepare myself for this school duel, if that is what you are calling it. Let's-"
"Hold on," said Aster as he began to walk straight towards him, "Let's talk. Right now, in private, there is something that I have to talk to you about something." said Aster as Sartorius looked at him with raised eyebrows, but nodded.
"I see, sure, Celina," The girl looked at him, "You may go, I will catch up to you later." said Sartorius.
"Sure, sure, good luck with the talk." said Celina as she then turned around and began to walk to the Obelisk White dorm, "Catch ya at the other side." she said as Jaden looked at her with a sad look, but he then looked at Aster.
"Good luck, buddy, no one will hear this conversation." said Jaden as Aster nodded.
"Thanks man, let's go, Sartorius." said Aster as he and Sartorius began to walk right behind the Slifer Red dorm as the others, aka Jaden, Syrus and Bastion, congratulated Hassleberry that even though he lost, he put up a great fight and that is what matters, but deep down at Hassleberry's core, he is still afraid. Afraid of being left alone.
"So, Aster, what do you want to talk about?" asked Sartorius as he leaned at the back of the Slifer Red dorm as he crossed his arms looking at his old friend, who will be his ex friend.
"I want to know several things about this." said Aster as Sartorius raised an eyebrow at this.
"Really? Tell me, and I will answer them." said Sartorius ready for all of the questions that he will give him at the moment.
"Alright, the first thing I want to know is this: Why haven't you told me about any of this? Any of this Society Of Light, seeing The Light crap. When have you ever talked about this? Why haven't you talked to me about this stuff?" asked Aster as Sartorius sighed, looking at the trees.
"It is simple. I didn't think you were worthy of hearing them." Sartorius as Aster looked at him.
"Worthy? What do you mean worthy?"
"I didn't think you were mature enough to hear about this, I do trust you about doing in duels and all other events, but not in the scheme of The Light." said Sartorius as Aster narrowed his eyes at that.
"After everything that I have done for you? I have dueled Zane and Jaden, heard about both of their downfalls and even watch it go down and I still listened to you, and I am not worthy or mature of it?" asked Aster as Sartorius looked at him.
"Well, not really, look how you are reacting right now, or at the simple fact that you want revenge." Aster's eyes widened.
"Don't you dare bring up that fact, you know what that means to me." said Aster in a deadly low tone.
"Fine, fine, but my point still stands. You are not mature enough." said Sartorius, "What was the next question?"
"Why did you go in Duel Academy without telling me and recruit Celina and… Aoi? No, Skye. Why did you do that?" asked Aster as Sartorius smiled at him.
"Simple, I saw potential in them, one of the most impressive people I have met as their ways are quite… interesting. Not to mention, they would provide such great recruits for the Light." said Sartorius.
"But they have done nothing to you or me! Why would you recruit them?! Have you seen how it affects the people around you?" asked Aster as he looked at him.
"I have, but that doesn't matter for personal feelings in the matter, my goal is to make everyone see the Light for the greater good." said Sartorius as Aster threw his hand out.
"Screw for the greater good! I feel like you are talking about this so that you won't feel bad about your selfish objective. What you are saying is false, I feel like you are doing this for your plan, not for anyone else." said Aster as Sartorius raised an eyebrow at that.
"Really? How can you tell that?" asked Sartorius in a curious tone in his voice.
"Because of this simple fact of this threat you sent me in Duel Academy. What threat are you talking about? I looked everywhere for this threat, but outside of the Society Of Light, there is no threat in sight. I figured it out the moment I dueled both Alexis and Jaden, you are not talking about my or anyone else, you are talking about a threat to you." said Aster.
"A threat to me? Aster, you must be mistaken. Jaden is the threat-"
"Jaden is the complete opposite of a threat I have ever seen, he is someone that can trust anyone after meeting them for an hour, he has forgiven me for what I did to him, so tell me this. How the hell is he a threat to you?" asked Aster with narrowed eyes.
"That is confiscated information. That is private to me," said Sartorius.
"Yeah, right. You are saying this because you have no other reason." said Aster as he then looked at him in the eyes, "Sartorius Kumar, I have one thing to say to you. You are fired, for everything that you did to me and everyone else, you are fired." said Aster as Sartorius looked at him in the eyes with a smirk on his face.
"I am fired? But who will tell you how a duel will end? How will you know that you will win a duel in advance?" asked Sartorius.
Aster scoffed, "I don't need it anymore, I never needed it." he said in defiance.
"Sure you didn't," said Sartorius with a chuckle. "Though, who will plan out your duels, your events? Your fans? Those dinners you go to? Your trip to that orphanage?"
Aster gritted his teeth and gripped his fist into a ball, "Emeralda. She is the most hard working worker at Senringan Group, I can trust her to plan out my stuff." said Aster as he breathed in and out.
"Her? Interesting. I hope she will be a good replacement for you." said Sartorius.
Aster began to walk away from him and went to his new friends, "All I know is that she will be better than you." he said while walking away.
Leaving Sartorius alone.
Inside, there was a small part of him that didn't want this to happen, after everything that they went through, only to break up their friendship. But the other part of his body?
All he cared about was The Light Of Destruction.
Authors Note: .
GUESS WHO IS BACK?! LALALALALALALALA! GUESS WHO IS BACK?! ME BITCHES! How are y'all doing? I am doing quite well actually! I finished my project for finals, I am going to study for finals, I made a 40 slide powerpoint presentation about Black Clover to boost my grade and I talked about it for what is essentially, a third of it, wrote this 16k word chapter and now I have finished Season 1 of my VRAINS fic. Guess how many words are there.
No. Guess, I want you to guess.
Give up?
46 THOUSAND WORDS! ALMOST 100 PAGES OF BORREL AND ROKKET VERSUS SALAMANGREAT! I AM NOT SANE! AT ALL!
At least I can get to work on this again! An extra chapter to be exact! That is right, you will get one more chapter for taking an entire month of writing nothing, but VRAINS characters. Seriously, I wrote 100 thousand words in a month. Take that experienced authors, I beat your bitchasses. I will be writing the school duel with these two chapters, one to see who is dueling for Duel Academy while the other is dueling in the school duel, which I hope I do well.
Now, to get on what happened. I decided to have a scene with Aster of just doing something simple, like eating breakfast while making SML and CuteMarioBros references along the way. Why? Because why not? Not to mention, I wanted to write him in a more human sense and have a small conversation with Bastion, since I like both characters. Next up is the scene with Sartorius and Celina, while making that "How old are you?" meme in that scene for some laughs as he is canonically 17 years old. No shit.
Next we have Hassleberry vs Sartorius, which is a bit different from canon as I decided to add The Just in this as a reference to Damnatio Kira from Black Clover while the design is original. I decided to make it a bit longer, while using Transaction Rollback and I love that card since it is so busted. Writing Dinos was fun which is why this will be the Hassleberry arc, somewhat, as I decided to add on the Abandonment Issues from Canon, since he canonically has that, not to mention, the funny reactions of DINO DNA! He is literally built different. I will give him some of the new guys and I hope you guys will enjoy the next two duels with Hassleberry!
Next up is the scene with Aster and Sartorius as from what I can remember, they haven't had a talk about this whole ordeal at all in canon, so I decided to add this to show that they are completely done with each other. Why? I thought it would bring into the drama aspect and not everything has to revolve with a duel and I wanted to make this different from canon as much as possible.
I have a few announcements to make: 1. I finished Season 1 of Thousand Year Blood War from Bleach and I will watch season 2 of it. 2. I have decided to make a new OP featuring my new ideas for what is about to come which was used in Bleach during the Fake Karakura Town Raid Arc, which I quite enjoyed. 3. This fic is now officially 2 years old! YUP! This chapter is posted a week after it became 2 years old! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, GX: REWRITE! Hope you enjoy this present! I am almost done with high school, that is right I started this fic when I was 16, wow time flies, so this fic is really meaningful to me as a writer as I didn't know I would write this far in just 2 years. Also, I have began to read Black Clover all over again.
Before I end this, I want to say that the new Black Clover Chapters, 370 and 371 are officially out, so I want to say that I will give you heads up in spoilers. Go now and read it.
You gone?
Okay, cool.
This chapter starts out with another character spread of the characters with them looking like they are from the casinos as I am loving their fits and we get to see Yuno and Asta beating the shite out of the Lucius clones with the Capital in shambles, as then we see several wide spread chapters about the Black Bulls. As we see Charmy, Zora, Finral and Secre help out Yuno and Asta with the Lucius Clones, Grey and Vanessa helping Noelle fighting the Lucius clone and Acier, Gauche looking like a fucking menace fighting with Rill, Gordon with that drip helping Charlotte and Wiiliam, Ichika and Nacht helping Yami fight Morgen, Magna, Luck and Henry fighting a Lucius Clone. And that was only Chapter 370. Chapter 371 starts out with another Crimson Lion King dying, with Mereoleona fighting Morris, as the dude pulls out [Earth Magic: March Of The Holy Fools] which Sisgoleon fought the beings. We then start reading about the Limits of the Human beings while Mereoleona was thinking about her past and her own limits at how no one wanted to train with her as she was built different. We see her train to her limits and something even she couldn't do, but Fuegoleon comes, helping her manage to evolve into a higher being and being able to use [Ultimate Flame Magic: Execletius Leonum] resurrecting everyone back from the dead, for now as she forces everyone to fight that man as we finally see the defeat of Morris Libardirt. All in all, FUCKING PEAK! SISGOLEON, MEREOLEONA VERMILLION THE GIRLBOSS OF THE CENTURY! Fuegoleon taking on all of those Angels on his own is pretty impressive, good for him. WHERE IS LEO, THOUGH?! Is he taking a nap?! I haven't seen this dude in 100 chapters! Also, I would have enjoyed to see Mars, Fana and Ladros come in to help her, but this is fine as well. All in all, I love these chapters!
I think that is about it, so see ya'!
