Hello everyone, did ya all miss me. Anyway, I was a little disappointed of the little reviews that last chapter got and hope for more this time. No questions since there were not many. Some of you guys may get angry at a few things I did in this chapter, but I decided to use my own ideas regardless of what others think. Now enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 5: Cat problems and new clothes.
It was nighttime in Heartland City with dog howls being heard and a full moon. At the Tsukumo Residence, Yuma was already sleeping on his hammock. He has a room down below, but chooses to sleep in the attic just above his own room. He was lying down straight, lightly breathing and had his arms crossed as he slept peacefully. On a desk next to the hammock that he was sleeping on was his deck and a picture of his parents.
However, it seemed like he had an uninvited guest. A small, grey cat and blue was outside that had a ring around its tail. The cat mowed out before a shadow appeared over the it. Yuma's window was unlocked and begins to open before a figure entered the attic. The figure looks like a young girl around Yuma's age with grey hair with catlike features, even somehow having a tail or something.
She leaps around the attic, putting stuff in places that they weren't meant to be. Astral appears from the Emperor's key, watching the girl do her dirty work herself. What the girl and Astral doesn't know is that Yuma had his left eye open and was watching the young girl, before closing it and going back to sleep.
(The next day)
The next day at Heartland Academy, Bronk and Tori were talking to each other in their class room and the topic is about Yuma. "It's been bothering me for a while. I mean its Yuma that we're talking about; he's never even beat me before. But suddenly he's rocking his deck like he's a pro''. Bronk said to Tori, remembering how Yuma used to lose to him all the time and is now wining duels back to back.
"There's nothing wrong with that. Yuma has actually gotten better since he started learning from Rio. She's even been teaching me as well. As a matter of fact, I already had two duels yesterday and I even won one of them thanks to her coaching". Tori explained to Bronk about her lessons from Rio, having been duelling more often
Bronk widens his eyes in surprise since Tori isn't known to duel often. "Really? Even you've started winning duels!" Bronk called out in surprise that even Tori has been wining duels as well, which she nods. "What's up guys''. "Good morning". Yuma and Rio greeted as they entered the room.
"Good morning Yu…" Tori greeted, before she stops at mid sentence. Bronk starts gasping in surprise at seeing Yuma. Yuma is dressed strangely in leather pants and an oversized fur coat with Rio next to him, blushing slightly red. "Don't ask. I know I look strange". Yuma said to his two friends, looking at himself while the rest of the class laughed at him.
"Listen Yuma I'm not one to talk about a person's fashion sense, but I need to intervene this time". Tori said to Yuma, her checks still red at seeing him like this. "I know this is hard to believe, but give me a chance to explain. The thing is that someone's been sneaking into my house and mixing up my clothes for the last few days. Last night, I managed to get a glance at the one responsible". Yuma explained to his friends about that mystery person, unknowingly getting someone seating at the front seats to twitch.
"Who would want to prank you?" Bronk asked in wonder, wondering who would do this to Yuma. "How should I know!? All I know is that its a girl! That girl has been sneaking in my house and messing up my clothes". Yuma replied to Bronk, telling him that he at least knows the mystery person's gender. "You know that about the pranks, but you still came here dressed like that!''. Tori snapped, her face starting to lose the blush.
"It was the only way for you to believe me''. Yuma replied to Tori as he threw the fur coat off. "Ahh, just what has been going with you lately? You've been acting strange for the last 2 weeks. You eat fancy food in a lunchbox you don't have, scored a perfect score in Mr. Kay's class, acting serious and even started using your brain more often''. Tori called out, remembering how Yuma has been for the past few days.
"Some people just change, besides it would be a waste to not eat that food. I had help with that test. And the getting serious thing is just a personality change, and are you implying that I wasn't use my brain before?'' Yuma explained to Tori, feeling a little insulted. "We're getting off topic! Anyway the next time whoever the hell this person is comes to prank me again, she's gonna regret putting me on her prank list!''. Yuma called out as he slammed his right fist into his open left hand.
"You're going to find someone dressed like that?" Tori questioned, placing her hands on her hips and smirking at Yuma. "I didn't choose to buy this outfit, Tori. My sister bought it for me". Yuma tried to explain that he wasn't the one that bought this outfit.
"I doubt it. To be honest, you don't have any fashion sense at all". Tori teased Yuma with a smirk on her face. "What the hell is that supposed to mean? What exactly would you want me to wear!?" Yuma exclaimed, now starting to get ticked that Tori thinks he has no fashion.
"I assure you that I'm better at fashion". Tori replied back to Yuma with a smirk on her face. "So you want a fashion match, bring it on?" Yuma smirked right back at Tori, accepting her challenge. "You could say that. We'll meet this Sunday and I'll choose you really, cool clothes". Tori replied to Yuma, having no intention of losing this duel, unknowingly getting Rio to narrow her eyes a little at her.
"You got yourself a deal, pinkie. We'll meet at the shopping mall at 3 PM". Yuma declared, setting the time for Sunday. Yuma turns to look at Rio. "Rio, would you be the judge?" Yuma asked his friend, wanting her to be the judge as Rio smiles at him. "You can count me in, I've got nothing better to do''. Rio accepted Yuma's request to be the judge.
"It's decided on Sunday, we'll meet at 3 PM at the shopping mall. Don't be late Yuma". Tori said to Yuma, accepting the time and date for the fashion match. "Careful what you wish for, it might come true". Yuma replied back to Tori with a smirk on his face.
Astral appeared from the Emperor's key, watching Yuma and Tori argue. "Astral, do you know anything about this girl that's been trying to prank Yuma?'' Rio asked Astral if he knows anything that Yuma doesn't know. "As much as I hate to say it, my knowledge of this mystery is the same as Yuma's''. Astral replied to Rio, not knowing anything more than Yuma knows about this.
However, unknown to everyone that seating in the front row of the class was the same girl that's been sneaking into Yuma's house, looking over her left shoulder. She glares at Rio and Tori for a bit as a numbers symbol appears on her left cheek, the number '29'.
(2 days later)
Two days has passed since Yuma and Tori had declared to have a fashion match against each other with Rio being the judge. On the Saturday before the big fashion match, Rio took Yuma out for another Duel lesson. And what a surprise, Yuma had new cards for Rio, most of them being Blizzard cards that could make her deck stronger. Rio thanked Yuma for the gift and gave him three new Xyz monsters.
The big day has arrived with Yuma and Rio already there at the mall for Tori, wearing their casual clothes and waiting on one of the higher floors. "Ah, c'mon. She tells me to not be late, yet she's the one that ends up late". Yuma grumbled, having his arms crossed and tapping the ground with his left foot. "You have a point there, but why did you ask me to be the judge?'' Rio asked Yuma why he wanted her to be the judge of this little contest.
"Let's just say that Bronk isn't really the stylish person and I don't hang out with much people in our class. So you're the best, not to mention first, choice''. Yuma explained to Rio that besides her, Tori, Bronk and Caswell, he doesn't know anyone else in class. "I guess you're right about that. I mostly picked Reginald's clothes when we went shopping so you made a good choice''. Rio stated, remembering that she helped her brother with his clothes in the past.
However, multiple meows were heard, getting them to look and see that they were surrounded by a horde of cats. "What the hell! Where'd they come from!'' Yuma called out in surprise at seeing the horde of cats appear out of nowhere and surround them. Astral comes out of the key and looks at the cats. "What are these? That awful noise they are admitting is making my spine tingle. It is terrifying''. Astral said in surprise, this being his first time seeing a cat.
"Wait a second, are you trying to tell me that a cat is all it takes to scare you?'' Yuma asked Astral with a smug look on his face, starting to think he found Astral's weakness. "They are simply not in my observation''. Astral replied to Yuma, trying to keep him from thinking that he was scared of a cat.
Yuma smirked as he thought of a way to blackmail Astral, before he took notice of Rio being awfully quiet. Yuma turned his head to look at Rio and saw her looking down, her hair shadowing her eyes and her teeth granted against each other. "Rio, what's up with you?'' Yuma asked in curiosity as he placed his left hand on Rio's right shoulder, having no idea what he has unleashed.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!''
The moment that Yuma touched her shoulder, Rio shrieks so loud that all of Heartland city could possibly hear her, making Yuma, Astral and the cats jump back in surprise. Before Yuma knew it, Rio was behind him, giving him a very strong bear hug, making him gasp for air.
"Cats, Cats, Cats!'' Rio cried out in fear as she kept Yuma in a bear hug, holding onto him like her life depended on it. "Rio, you're really scared of cats!?'' Yuma called out in surprise, having never expected Rio to have a fear of cats. "It's not funny! Just get rid of them, Yuma!" Rio snapped at Yuma with her eyes closed, not wanting the cats anywhere near her.
However, Yuma takes notices of blue cat in front of the horde of fury felines with an envelope and a familiar hair ribbon in its mouth. "That ribbon. That's Tori's ribbon". Yuma said in surprise, getting Rio and Astral to widen their eyes as the Ice Queen let her friend go. Yuma walked up to the blue cat with Rio following him, staying behind him and pressing against his back with her hands on his shoulders.
Yuma grabbed both the envelope and hair ribbon with both his hands. "What the crap!'' Yuma called out in shock at what was written on the envelope. "W-w-what's i-i-it s-say?'' Rio nervously asked Yuma what was written, still nervous of the cats surrounding her and Yuma.
"Tori's been kidnapped and who did it wants me to follow the cats!'' Yuma told Rio what was written on the envelope, making Rio slightly widen her eyes. "I-I can't g-g-go with you''. Rio nervously told Yuma, afraid of being in a place full of cats. "I understand, you're afraid of more cats. I'll handle this, wait for me to come back''. Yuma told Rio to leave this to him, understanding why she can't come with him.
Rio nervously nodded in thanks to Yuma for understanding why she can't go for him. Yuma smiled at Rio, before he ran after the blue cat who started leading him to where her mistress is. All the other cats chased after them with Astral flowing after them. Once all the cats were gone, Rio collapsed to her knees.
"Thanks goodness those fur balls are gone!'' Rio cried out in relief that the cats are gone now. Rio got back on her feet, before she looked down at the ground in shame. "I'm a coward. Because of my stupid fear, I couldn't help Yuma save Tori''. Rio said in shame that her fear was more powerful than her urge to help her friends.
Rio than shook her head repeatable. "Get a hold of yourself Rio; remember to 'feel the flow'. Have courage against those fur balls and hi-five the sky''. Rio told herself, remembering to 'feel the flow' and to 'hi-five the sky'. "But I guess I should leave this to Yuma now that he's gone on ahead. I should find a way to make up for this''. Rio said to herself as she walked towards the shops, wanting to find a way to make up for her fear.
(With Yuma)
Yuma has been following the horde of cats to a mansion, which Yuma kicked the front door open. "Alright, who has the balls to kidnap Tori?!'' Yuma called out as he walked inside with Astral floating next to him. The hall was full of cats, cats statues and cat paintings. "More of these creatures''. Astral stated, taking notice of more cats then before at the mall.
Yuma and Astral than heard a bell, getting their attention as they looked up the staircase to see that same girl as before, only her outfit consisted of a mostly black dress with a white cat tail attached and clawed gloves. She has black and white over-knee high socks and black shoes. In the second series, it consisted of a lilac T-shirt with torn-ended sleeves and a red tie, black shorts held up by suspenders and maroon ankle boots with accessories being a collar, matching bracelet on her right wrist and a star earring on her right ear. She was also holding a mask with her left hand, covering her face.
"Thank you for coming''. The girl thanked Yuma for coming here. "Who are you supposed to be, exactly?'' Yuma asked the girl, wondering who she is. "I'm Cathy Katherine''. The girl introduced herself with a smile. "Cathy…Katherine?'' Yuma repeated in confusion, having no idea who she is.
"Yup, but you can just call me Cat''. Cathy said to Yuma as she held the her mask away from her face, revealing the Number mark on her check, making Yuma and Astral widen their eyes at seeing the Number mark on her face. "A number!'' Yuma called out in surprise to see that this girl had a number. "Indeed, number 29 to be exact''. Astral said to his with his arms crossed, now knowing what caused this whole mess.
"Oh, are you talking about this?'' Cathy asked as she brought out a card with her right hand, making sure Yuma doesn't see what monster it was. "Where'd you get that?!'' Yuma demanded to know where Cathy got her Number card. "One of my friends brought it to me, which my new card gave me the courage to finally take matters into my own hands''. Cathy replied to Yuma, not intimidated one bit.
"What do you mean take 'matters into your own hands?'' Yuma asked Cathy on what she meant by that. "I think I remember this girl. She attends your school, she is often alone. Standing off to the side''. Astral said as he remembered where he has seen this girl. "Now that you mention it, I remember seeing someone everywhere I go when I'm at school''. Yuma replied to Astral, remembering when he caught a glance at someone who was following him and Rio once.
"I knew it, you did notice me!'' Cathy called out in joy, her checks turning red. "That isn't the time for that! What the heck did you do to Tori?!'' Yuma called out, demanding to know what Cathy did to Tori. "Tori, Tori, Tori! Is she all you think about''. Cathy scoffs, narrowing her eyes in slight anger. "She's just a good old childhood friend, that's all you need to know! Now where did you take her?!'' Yuma replied to Cathy, more concerned for Tori then to continue an argument.
"I'll only tell you if you defeat me in a duel''. Cathy said as she turned around, making Yuma slightly widen his eyes at the unexpected request. "A Duel!" Yuma said in surprise, thinking he would have to be the one that asks for a duel. "That's right, if you win I'll tell you where Tori is. But if you lose''. Cathy explained, before she made a cat claw gesture with her hand, making Yuma grant as his teeth as he knew what Cathy would do if he loses.
"Damn you! Fine, time to feel the flow!''. Yuma called out in agreement, before he jumped onto one of the platforms with Cat jumping like a cat onto the other platform. Yuma threw his Duel pad into the air, while he attached his duel disk on. His Duel pad than attached to his Duel Disk, with Yuma placing his Duel Gazer on.
Cathy put on a pink Duel Gazer, while having a regular silver Duel Pad and Duel Disk. "AR Vision – Link Established!'' The computer voice called out as the AR vision activated around Yuma and Cathy. "Let's Duel!''. Yuma and Cathy called out as they drew their starting hand.
Yuma Life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
Cathy life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
(Meanwhile with Rio)
Meanwhile back with Rio, she was still at the mail, only now shopping for new clothes for Yuma since she wanted to make up for not going with him to save Tori. Right now, she had just left a clothing shop, holding two white bags with both her hands, having thought and looked hard for the perfect clothes for Yuma.
"I hope Yuma likes these clothes. They were the best stylish clothes that I could find in there''. Rio said to herself, taking a glance at the clothing shop before she started walking away, heading back to the park to wait for Yuma. However during her walk to the park, she took notice of two adult thugs walking into an alleyway.
It wasn't the fact that they looked like Thugs that caught Rio's attention. It was more of the fact that they had the numbers '55' and '50' on them. Number 55 being on the right side on one of the thugs neck, while Number 50 was on the other thug's right side face. "Perfect timing, I was getting bored waiting''. Rio said with a smile on her, before she chases after the two thugs, now having something to do to pass the time for Yuma to return.
(Back with Yuma)
Yuma life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
Cathy life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"I hope you don't mind, but ladies first!'' Cathy called out as she drew her card from her deck. "To start off, I'll activating The Inviting Cat card from my hand!''. Cathy called out as a spell card appeared on her field, glowing. "Judging from the name, she must use a Cat deck. I bet Rio wouldn't like this if she was here''. Yuma stated, thinking that Rio wouldn't have enjoyed this if she came.
"My spell allows me to add a Stray Cat to my hand. But that's not all because now I activate the continuous spell card, Cat Meeting!'' Cathy called out as she added a card to her hand and played a continuous spell this time. "Just my luck, those cards are troublesome''. Yuma stated as he checked his hand.
"Here kitty-kitty, I summon Stray Cat in ATK mode!" Cathy called out, holding out a Stray Cat's card with a wink as a white cat appeared, hiding its face and wagging its tail.
Stray Cat ATK Points: 100.
"Now my Cat meeting spell card's effect activates now, letting me summon another Stray Cat. After all, no kitty likes to be alone!'' Cathy called out, explaining the effects of her spell as a black stay cat appeared on her field.
Stray Cat ATK Points: 100.
"Why would you play two monsters with only a 100 ATK Points in ATK mode?!'' Yuma asked Cathy, wanting to know why she played two monsters with only 100 ATK Points. "Oh silly me, guess I must have made a mistake. I'll just play two face downs and end my turn''. Cathy replied to Yuma, making another cat hand gesture as two face down cards appeared on her field.
Yuma life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"I don't know what you're up to, but I'm still gonna declaw your claws, I draw!'' Yuma called out as he drew his card from his deck and added it to his hand. "I summon, Achacha Archer!'' Yuma called out, holding a card out with his right hand's index and middle fingers, which a card appeared on his field before Achcha Archer appears.
Achacha Archer ATK Points: 1200.
"When Achacha is summoned, you take 500 points of damage!'' Yuma explained Achacha Archer's effect as Achacha Archer set one of his arrows on fire and fired it at Cathy. "Now when a player takes effect damage, I'm allowed to negate it and summon Achacha Chanbara!'' Yuma called out as the fire arrow glowed and changed into Achacha Chanbara.
Achacha Chanbara ATK Points: 1400.
"When Chabara is summoned, you take 400 Points of damage!'' Yuma explained Achacha Chanbara's effect, which Chanbara slashed at Cathy with one of his swords, making her cry on in pain.
Cathy life points: 4000 – 400 = 3600.
"Well done Yuma, now you have two Level 3 monsters on your field''. Astral praised his partner with his arms crossed and eyes focused on the duel. "You got that right! I overlay Level 3 Achacha Archer and Chanbara!'' Yuma called out as he held his right hand into the air as the two Achacha monsters turned into two bright lights that went into a red portal that appeared.
"With these two monsters, I build the overlay network! I Xyz summon Achacha Black Sniper!'' Yuma called out as a tornado of fire came out of the red portal, before disappearing to reveal the new monster.
Achacha Black Sniper doesn't look like his fellow Achachas. He had tightly fitted black and silver fighting uniform that was designed for fee movement and camouflage in the midnight city at night. The shiny amour protected fingers, shoulders and torso. It was broken into insect-like segments to allow for fluid and silent movement in both attack and defence. His tattered matt crimson cape billowed behind him allowing for balance and stealth. A magical circular mud-brown stone sat on the amours sternum, radiating power. It had three spikes on its shoulder armour. Over his head, a soft grey hood shielded his armoured helmet from view as it doesn't wish for anyone to see its face, but his deep yellow eyes were visible. In his hands was a long refile. Two red overlay units were circling around Black Sniper
(Achacha Black Sniper/ Rank: 3/ Attribute: Fire/ Type: Warrior/ Effect/ Xyz/ ATK Points: 2000/ DEF Points: 1500/ Requirements: 2 level 3 monsters/ Effect: Once per turn by using an overlay unit, you can draw one card from your deck. If it is a monster card, your opponent takes 200 points of damage times it level and special summon that monster in DEF mode. If it's not a monster, send the card to the graveyard and skip your battle phase)
"I play Black Sniper's special ability! By using an overlay unit, I can draw a card and if it's a monster card, you take 200 points of damage times its level!'' Yuma explained his new Xyz monster's effect as an overlay unit was absorbed into the refile, with Black Sniper taking aim at Cathy.
Yuma placed his right hand's index and middle fingers on the top card of his deck, before he drew it and flipped it over to see what card he drew. It was Ganbara Knight, making Yuma smirk. "I drew the level four Ganbara Knight, meaning you take 800 Points of damage and Ganbara comes out!'' Yuma called out with a smirk as he placed Ganbara Knight's card on his duel disk.
Ganbara Knight appeared from his card, taking a stance as Black Sniper fired at Cathy, making her cry out as she was hit by a bullet.
Ganbara Knight DEF Points: 1800.
Cathy Life points: 4000 – 800 = 3200.
"Thank you for that, because now I can activate the trap, DNA Transplant!'' Cathy called out as one her face down cards revealed itself, making Yuma and Astral widen their eyes in surprise. "DNA transplant! That trap changes all monsters on the field's attribute to whatever she wants!'' Yuma exclaimed, knowing full well what that trap does.
"I choose to make all monsters Earth type!''. Cathy called out with a smirk as auras appeared around Ganbara knight and Black Sniper, representing their attributes before they changed into brown auras.
Ganbara Knight Attribute: Light change to Earth.
Achacha Black Sniper attribute: Fire change to Earth.
"What good would come from changing our monster's attributes?'' Yuma questioned, having no idea what good would come from changing his monster's attributes. "I do not know Yuma, but it would be best to defeat her before she has the chance to reveal her strategy''. Astral told Yuma, thinking it would be best to defeat Cathy now.
"You got it, go Achacha! Attack Stray Cat!'' Yuma called out, holding out his right hand as Black Sniper takes aim at the White Stray Cat with his refile. However, the black one started waging its tail, getting Black Sniper to change targets, but then the white one started wagging its tail, getting the Xyz monster confused.
"What the heck is going on?!'' Yuma called out in surprise at what's happening. "Stray Cat's ability, that's what! When Stray Cat is in ATK Mode, you can't attack any other monster!'' Cathy explained as she licked her lips, making Yuma grant his teeth. "Fine then, I'll take care of that with this! The spell Flip Flap!''. Yuma called out as a spell card appeared on his field.
"This spell changes one monster you controls battle position, so your black Stray Cat goes to DEF mode!'' Yuma explained his spell as a box appeared around the Black Stray Cat.
Stray Cat DEF mode: 300.
Cathy cried out in surprise at the unexpected move. "Sniper, take aim and take out the White Stray Cat!''. Yuma called out, pointing as the White Stray cat who showed its monster face, which didn't frighten Black Sniper before he fired, piercing the White Stray cat and destroying it. "My kitty!'' Cathy called out, flinching from the damage. (2000 – 100 = 1900)
Cathy Life points: 3200 – 1900 = 1300.
'The Stray Cat's ability depends on it being in ATK mode but with it in DEF mode, its effect won't activate. It appears Rio's training has helped Yuma'. Astral thought to himself, taking notice of Yuma's quick thinking.
"You're already down to more than half your life points and when they're completely gone, you're gonna let the cat out of the bag and tell me where Tori is!'' Yuma snapped at Cathy, still pissed that she took Tori captive. "It's not fair! I'm standing here right in front of you and all you can think about is her! Just forget her and that ice witch, you're supposed to be looking at me!'' Cathy snapped back at Yuma, making him slightly widen his eyes in surprise.
"What the heck ticked her off?'' Yuma questioned, being oblivious on why Cathy did all this. "Before you even think about making another move, I play the quick-play spell Mysterious Cat Transformation!''. Cathy called out as her second face down card revealed itself.
"When Stray Cat is destroyed, I'm allowed to summon a Monster Cat from my deck!'' Cathy explained her spell's effect as she made cat gestures, before a giant flaming Cat appeared behind her.
Monster Cat ATK Points: 0000.
"When Monster Cat is summoned, all Level Four or lower monsters you control are destroyed and you take 800 Points of damage!'' Cathy explained her monster's ability, making Yuma and Astral widen their eyes in surprise as Monster Cat unleashed a powerful roar that destroyed Ganbara Knight, making Yuma grant his teeth as he was pushed back a little.
Yuma life points: 4000 – 800 = 3200.
"That's what you get for thinking about Tori in the middle of our duel. Also just a little warning, think about that girl Rio and it'll be worse next time''. Cathy told Yuma with a smirk on her face, making him grant his teeth before he looked back at the 3 cards in his hand. "I'll set a face down and end my turn!'' Yuma called out as a face down card appeared on his field.
Cathy life points: 1300/ Number of cards in hand: 1.
"This kitty's ready to pounce!'' Cathy called out as she drew her card from her deck. "First off, I'll use Monster Cat's special ability to add the Stray Cat that you destroyed back in my hand!'' Cathy explained Monster Cat's special ability as she added a card from her graveyard to her hand. "Now I summon Rescue Cat!'' Cathy called out as a white cat with a helmet on her head appeared.
Rescue Cat ATK Points: 300.
"I activate Rescue Cat's special ability! By attributing her, I can summon two level 3 or lower Beast monsters from my deck! Now Rescue Cat, make room for Catnipped Kitty and Dark Cat with White Tail!'' Cathy called out as Rescue Cat turned into two white portals that allowed two new cats to appear. One of them was a happy blue cat while the other was a dark cat with a white tail.
Catnipped Kitty ATK Points: 0000.
Dark Cat with White Tail ATK Points: 800.
"Two level 2 monsters!" Yuma called out in alarm, taking notice of the two new monsters having the same level. "Brace yourself Yuma!'' Astral told Yuma to get ready for what's coming next.
"I overlay my level 2 Catnipped Kitty and Dark Cat with White Tail!'' Cathy called out as her two monsters turned into two brown lights that went into the air, before going into a Galaxy Portal the appeared in front of Cathy. "With these two monsters, I build the overlay network and Xyz summon Number 29: Mannequin Cat!'' Cathy called out as she held a card out with her right hand's index and middle fingers.
The number "29" appeared and flashed blue as a cardboard box came out of the network before reforming itself into a cat girl with a white tail with black on the end, wearing a black and white outfit with a red bell. A gold coin in her hair. A blue number "29" was on her left thigh as two brown overlay units circled around her.
Number 29: Mannequin Cat ATK Points: 2000.
"There's something you don't see every day!'' Yuma exclaimed, looking at the Cat girl number monster. "Number 29. If we capture this number, the total numbers that we'll have along with Rio's Numbers will be 11''. Astral told Yuma, taking note of how many Numbers they'll have when they'll win.
"Well, what are we waiting for, let's do this then! Bring it on, Cathy'' Yuma called out with a smirk on his face. "You want my best? you'll get my best, my darling!'' Cathy called back to Yuma, licking her lips again. "I activate Mannequin Cat's special ability! By using an overlay unit, a monster returns to your field!'' Cathy explained her number's effect, making Yuma and Astral slightly widen their eyes, having been expecting a different effect.
One of Mannequin Cat's overlay units flew into her hair clip, which she meowed out as a portal appeared on Yuma's field and Achacha Chanbara jumped out.
Achacha Chanbara ATK Points: 1400.
"Why would she summon Chanbara back to our field?'' Yuma questioned, wondering why Cathy would bring back his own monster. "We're about to find out!'' Astral told his partner as he crossed his arms, keeping his eyes on Cathy's number monster. "Now since a monster was summoned to your field, Mannequin Cat's second effect activates! Now I can summon a monster with the same type or attribute!'' Cathy called out with her right hand making a cat gesture, explaining her number's second effect.
Cathy than took a card from her hand and held it out, showing that it was Stray Cat's card. "So I'll summon my kitty back''. Cathy said with a smirk as the Black Stray Cat reappeared on her field, wagging its tail.
Stray Cat ATK Points: 100.
"She now has 3 level one monsters''. Astral stated, taking notice of Cathy's field and her monsters' levels. "Here comes another Xyz''. Yuma commented, preparing himself for what's coming next. "I overlay my two level 1 Stray Cats and Monster Cat!'' Cathy called out with a smirk as her three monsters turned into lights that went into a red portal that appeared in front of her.
"With these three monsters, I build the overlay network and xyz summon Twin-Tail Cat Lady!'' Cathy called out with a smirk as a cat lady monster wearing a red outfit appeared with metal weapons on her arms that act as claws with three overlay units around her.
Twin-tail Cat Lady ATK Points: 1000.
"Two Xyz monsters at once, she is very impressive''. Astral said to Yuma, impressed with how Cathy summoned two Xyz monsters. "I second that''. Yuma said in agreement to what Astral said, impressed as well.
"I activate Twin-tail Cat Lady's special ability! By using an overlay unit, she gains 800 ATK Points!'' Cathy explained her xyz monster's special ability as an overlay unit was absorbed into Twin-tail Cat Lady's metal claws.
Twin-tail Cat Lady ATK Points: 1000 + 800 = 1800.
"That's not good!'' Yuma exclaimed, taking notice of how dangerous that effect is. "No it isn't, Yuma. If she uses all her overlay units, Twin-tail Cat Lady's ATK Points will reach an ATK power of 3400''. Astral told Yuma, calculating how high Cat Lady's ATK Points will be when she uses all her overlay units.
"We'll just have to stop it before it uses all its overlay units''. Yuma replied to Astral, knowing he has to destroy Twin-tail Cat Lady before she becomes too powerful. "Are you impressed yet?'' Cathy asked Yuma if he was impressed yet with her dueling.
"I am actually, and hope to see what else you got''. Yuma replied to Cathy with a smirk on his face, making her blush at his words. "Really? Then I'll keep impression you till your heart is mine! I play the field spell, Cat World!'' Cathy called out with a blush as the mansion changed into a cat paradise.
"Th-the heck is this?!'' Yuma stutters out, looking at the new scene. "This is the paradise for my cats, a world that contains only me, my cats and you''. Cathy replied to Yuma, telling him about Cat World. "And the best part is that when Cat world is activated, the ATK of all my kitties goes up by their original ATK Points!'' Cathy called out with a smirk, making Yuma and Astral widen their eyes.
Twin-Tail Cat Lady ATK Points: 1800 + 1000 = 2800.
Number 29: Mannequin Cat ATK Points: 2000 + 2000 = 4000.
"Aww crap''. Yuma muttered, knowing that Cathy could deal some serious damage with that power boost. "I've got your eyes on me now and I'll never let them look away! Go Mannequin Cat, attack Black Sniper!'' Cathy called out with a smirk on her face, holding out her right hand as her number monster charged at Black Sniper.
"Oh no you don't!'' Yuma called out as he held his right hand out as his face down card revealed to be Negate Attack. "Negate Attack negates not only your attack, but ends the battle phase!'' Yuma called out as a force field appeared around his monster and protected them.
"I'll get you next time, I end my turn''. Cathy called out having no left to do.
Yuma life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 2.
"I'll admit it, you're a really great duelist''. Yuma admitted, finally admitting that Cathy is a really good duelist. "Yeah, you think so?'' Cathy asked, her checks red at Yuma's praise.
"What would I get from lying''. Yuma replied to Cathy with a smile on his face. "It's just…''. Cathy said as she looked away, getting Yuma and Astral to look at her in confusion.
"It's just so nice to hear you say that because, well… in the real world there's this boy. He doesn't even know I exist. We see each other all the time, but he just looks right through me''. Cathy explained to Yuma without looking at him, making Yuma feel pity for her. "Jeez, and I thought I was a jerk for ignoring Tori last week''. Yuma said to himself, thinking back to when Tori was angry at him for spending all his time with Rio.
"I tried playing all sorts of little tricks on him just to get him to say something to me, but it didn't work. I'm just so shy, I wish I could just walk right up to him and tell him how I feel''. Cathy continued to explain to Yuma about how she feels about a boy she likes. "Then just do it''. Yuma replied to Cathy, getting her to look at him.
"I may have lots to learn about love and all that, but I do know is that you have to put aside all your doubt and just tell the person you like how you feel. Even if they don't feel the same way, at least you went out and told your feelings with no regrets. All you need to do is Feel the flow, then you can Hi-five the sky!'' Yuma told Cathy, telling her to be fearless and tell the person she likes how she feels.
"You're right Yuma. Hahaha, I'm gonna do and tell him how I feel. Okay, Yuma I really-'' Cathy called out in joy and was about to confess, only for Yuma to interrupt her. "My turn, I draw!'' Yuma called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion, making Cathy stop her confession.
"I play Roll of Faith!''. Yuma called out as he played the card he drew as a spinning dice appeared in the air. "Here's how it works, the number that my dice lands on, I draw cards equal to what it lands on and then send the same number of cards to the graveyard!'' Yuma explained Roll of Faith's effects to Cathy.
The dice stopped spinning in front of Yuma, Cathy and their monsters with the number being…3!
"It's a three, so I draw three cards!'' Yuma called out as he drew the top three cards of his deck and added them to his hand, before sending the next top three cards to his pants' pockets. "I'll start off by summoning Gagaga Sister!'' Yuma called out, holding a card out with his right hand's index and middle fingers as a small blond hair and green eyed girl wearing creamy colored clothes appeared on his field.
Gagaga Sister ATK Points: 200.
"When Gagaga Sister is summoned, her ability allows me to add a Gagaga Spell or trap card from my deck to my hand!'' Yuma explained Gagaga Sister's effect as Gagaga Sister took her hat off, put her right hand into it and pulled out an orb of energy that went into Yuma's deck, causing it to glow as a card slotted out.
Yuma grabbed the card with his right hand and showed it to Cathy. "I added the Gagagabolt spell card and I'll activate it!'' Yuma called out as the spell in his hand glowed, before lightning started appearing out of nowhere, striking the Cat World field spell.
"If I control a Gagaga monster, Gagagabolt destroys one card on your field!'' Yuma explained Gagagabolt's effect as the Thunder destroyed the field spell, returning the field back to Cathy's mansion.
Twin-Tail Cat Lady ATK Points: 2800 – 1000 = 1800.
Number 29: Mannequin Cat ATK Points: 4000 – 2000 = 2000.
"Hold on a second, Yuma-''. Cathy tried to tell Yuma to stop for a moment, only for him to continue. "Now since I control a Gagaga monster, I can summon out Gagaga Clerk!'' Yuma called out as another female monster appeared on his field.
Gagaga Clerk ATK Points: 400.
"I now play Gagaga Sister's special ability! Once a turn, I can use Gagaga Sister's ability to combine all Gagaga monsters' levels!'' Yuma explained Gagaga Sister's ability as Gagaga Sister and Gagaga Clerk glowed gold for a second.
Gagaga Sister Level: 2 + 2 = 4.
Gagaga Clerk Level: 2 + 2 = 4.
"Now I overlay both Gagaga Sister and Gagaga Clerk!'' Yuma declared as he held his right hand up as both Gagaga Sister and Clerk turned into two lights that represent their attribute and descended into a red portal that appeared in front of him. "With these two monsters, I build the Overlay Network and Xyz summon Gagaga Cowboy!'' Yuma called out as a monster that looked like a cowboy appeared with two overlay units circling around it.
Gagaga Cowboy ATK Points: 1500.
"And if you think you're out of trouble, think again because I use Black Sniper's effect again!'' Yuma called out with a smirk as Black Sniper absorbed his last overlay unit into his riffle and took aim at Cathy again.
Yuma drew the top card of his deck and showed it to Cathy, revealing it to be Zubaba Knight. "It's Zubaba Knight and his level 3, so you take 600 points of damage!'' Yuma called out as he placed Zubaba Knight's card on his Duel Disk with said monster appearing, while Black Sniper fired at Cathy, dealing more damage.
Zubaba Knight DEF Points: 900.
Cathy life points: 1300 – 600 = 700.
Yuma than looked at the last three cards in his hand and smirked as he figured out a strategy to end this. "I play two copies of the spell, Star Changer!'' Yuma called out, holding out two spell cards with his right hand's index, middle and thumb. "These spells allows me to ether increase or decrease a monster's level by one, so I'll increase Zubaba Knight and Achacha Chanbara's level by one!'' Yuma explained his two spell cards' effects as the two monsters' levels increased.
Zubaba Knight Level: 3 + 1 = 4.
Achacha Chanbara level: 3 + 1 = 4.
"Once more, I overlay level 4 Zubaba Knight and Achacha Chanbara!'' Yuma declared as he held his right hand into the air as his two monsters turned into lights that represent their attributes. "Two Xyz summons in one turn!'' Astral said in surprise at how much Yuma's skills have improved as the two lights went into a red portal that appeared in front of Yuma.
"With these two monsters, I build the overlay network and Xyz summon Zubaba General!'' Yuma called out as a blue armored knight, wearing a red cape and wielding a giant sword appeared with two brown overlay units circling around it.
Zunana General ATK Points: 2000.
"Yuma…please let me-''. Cathy tried to ask Yuma to stop, only for him to keep going. "I activate Gagaga Cowboy's special ability! By using an overlay unit, when it attacks he'll gain 1000 ATK Points and your monster loses 500!'' Yuma cried out, explaining his Xyz monster's level as one of Gagaga Cowboy's overlay units was absorbed into his guns.
"Now go Zubaba General, attack Twin-tail Cat Lady!'' Yuma called out with a smirk as Zubaba General drew his sword and charged at Twin-tail Cat Lady, slashing at her stomach, which destroyed her. (2000 – 1800 = 200)
Cathy life points: 700 – 200 = 500.
"I…always…love-''. Cathy tried to confess again, only for Yuma to interrupt again. "Gagaga Cowboy, time to hi-five the sky to victory! Attack Number 29!'' Yuma called out, pointing at Number 29: Mannequin Cat.
Gagaga Cowboy ATK Points: 1500 + 1000 = 2500.
Number 29: Mannequin Cat ATK Points: 2000 – 500 = 1500.
Gagaga Cowboy opened fire, shooting all over Number 29: Mannequin Cat's body, creating an explosion that blew Cathy off her feet; before she crashed on her back, knocked out. (2500 – 1500 = 1000)
Cathy life points: 500 – 1000 = 0000.
A screen appeared, showing that Yuma was the winner as the AR vision deactivated with Yuma's monsters disappearing. "That's game!'' Yuma called out, doing Jaden's winning pose. Astral held his right hand out to Cathy, which Number 29's card flew out with the number mark disappearing on Cathy's check. Astral held the new number in his right hand as he regained more memoires.
'Another number and another memory'. Astral thought to himself as he saw flashes of memories. He saw three worlds, a black and red haired man in an adventure outfit and a golden armoured man. 'These…memories'. Astral thought to himself with widen eyes at seeing the memories.
However, suddenly Astral started to glow as the marks on his body started shining nonstop, making both him and Yuma widen their eyes as the shine engulfed them for a few seconds. The shine soon disappeared to reveal Yuma and Astral, only they looked…taller.
Yuma grew by 3 cm, officially making him a little taller than Rio and Astral grew by 5 cm. The two looked at each other in surprised. "Well, that was a surprise''. Yuma stated as he looked at himself, before he took off walking to Cathy.
Cathy groaned as she woke up with the same blue cat as before next to her. "I…lost''. Cathy said in sadness that she lost, but than a shadow blocked the setting sun, getting her to look and see that it was Yuma, offering a hand to help her up.
"It was a great duel, that's all that matters. I'd really like for us to duel again, but for now please tell me where Tori is?'' Yuma asked Cathy where Tori is with a smile, making her blush at his smile. "Alright Yuma''. Cathy replied, deciding to tell Yuma where Tori is.
(A few minutes later with Rio)
Back in the shops, Rio was still waiting for Yuma, seating on a bench with two shopping bags next to her with the Ice Queen looking through her deck with a smile on her face. "I'm back''. Rio heard Yuma's voice, getting her to look left to see Yuma and Astral walking up towards her. Rio slightly widen her eyes at seeing them somehow a little taller now. "Hey, did you find Tori?'' Rio greeted them with a smile as she stood up from the bench as Yuma stopped in front of her with him now a little taller then her, surprising the Ice Queen even more.
"Oh I did and it turned out, she was just playing with cats the whole time''. Yuma replied to Rio, taking a sigh of exhaustion as she shivered. "However, we managed to acquire another number during our little cat adventure''. Astral told Rio, his arms crossed and smiling a little.
"Just one number card? While you two were gone, I got two more''. Rio said with a smile as she showed Number 50: Blackship of Corn and Number 55: Gogogo Goliath, making Yuma and Astral widen their eyes in surprise. "H-How the…?'' Yuma asked in surprise at seeing Rio collected two more numbers while he was away. "Interested, okay than. Story time''. Rio said with a smile as she started telling Yuma how she got these two numbers.
(Flashback)
"Go Frozen Lady Justice and Crystalzero, end this!'' Rio cried out, holding out her right hand as both Frozen Lady Justice and Crystalzero swung their weapons, blowing the two thugs that Rio saw earlier off their feet and onto their backs, knocked out.
Thug one life points: 500 – 1500 = 0000.
Thug two life points: 1000 – 2200 – 0000.
A screen appeared showing that Rio was the winner as the AR vison deactivated with both number monsters disappearing. Earlier that day, Rio caught up with the two thugs and challenged them to a two on one duel, which they accepted. Turns out, they were easy pickings as Rio only lost 1500 life points before she won.
Rio held out her right hand to the two knocked out thugs. "Come to me Number 55 and Number 50!'' Rio cried out as both Number cards came out of the two thugs and floated into her hands, making her smile at seeing her prizes. "I thank you for your donation, gentleman. Two numbers for the price of one is a good deal''. Rio thanked her opponents with a smile as she walked out of the alleyway, picking up her two bags.
(Flashback end)
"And that's how it happened''. Rio finished her story with a smile as she gave Yuma number 55: Gogogo Goliath. "I think you could use this number better than me, considering that it's a Gogogo monster''. Rio told Yuma that she thinks he'd do better with number 55 than her. "Thanks Rio''. Yuma thanked Rio as he took the number card and placed it in his deck container.
However, Yuma took notice of the bags on the bench that Rio was seating on a few minutes ago. "What's in the bags?'' Yuma asked Rio, getting her to look at the bags before she went to get them and bring them to Yuma. "They're clothes I bought for you since the fashion match was canceled. I hope you like them''. Rio explained with a nervous smile as she gave Yuma the bags, making him smile at her.
"Thanks. I'll try them out". Yuma thanked Rio for the new clothes as he went into a nearby toilet room to get changed, while Rio and Astral waited outside. After 1 minute, Yuma came out wearing his new outfit.
Yuma was wearing a dark (or Purple) grey T-Shirt with a yellow geometric design in front and matching yellow wristbands, a white jacket vest over his shirt, Black jeans and White high top Sneakers. Somehow, Yuma's new clothes matched his new size perfectly. "So what do you think?" Yuma asked Rio on what she thought of his new look. Rio is speechless and has a blush on her cheeks at seeing Yuma. "Handsome". Rio whispered to herself, getting Yuma to look confused since he didn't hear her.
"Could you say that again?" Yuma asked Rio to say what she just said again. "You look handsome Yuma". Rio repeated, looking away from Yuma with her checks red. Now it was Yuma's turn to blush. "You think so? I got to say thanks Rio". Yuma thanked Rio for her kind words. "I must say it suits you rather well''. Astral committed, thinking that Yuma looked great as well.
Yuma, Astral and Rio started walking home, talking to each other before something in the sky got their attention. They looked up to see something that looked like a shooting star. "What is that?" Yuma asked in wonder, having no idea what he's looking at. "No idea, but it looks like it's gonna crash somewhere around Heartland City". Rio replied to Yuma, her eyes focused on the shooting star as it crashes around the forest in the outskirts of the city.
"Yuma, Rio, I think we should go and see what that was". Astral told Yuma and Rio, wishing to see what just crashed outside of heartland city. Yuma and Rio nodded to Astral before they started running off to the forest.
It took a few minutes, but eventually they were in the forest and right where that shooting star crashed, which had a crater around it. The crater was star shaped. In the middle of the crater was an energy being that looked like Astral? That energy being clearly looked female with a slender build, a beautiful white dress and long beautiful silver hair and in her arms was a young baby with the Mohawk hairstyle like Astral.
Yuma and Rio looked surprised at seeing this being look like the same kind of being as Astral, who on the other hand was speechless at the sight of the beautiful woman, feeling his heart beating faster than normal. The energy being opened her eyes to reveal yellow eyes as she stood up on her feet. "So this is Earth?" The female energy being said as she looked around herself.
The female energy being looked up and saw Yuma, Rio and Astral, who flinched at her seeing them before their surprised looks turned to confused looks at seeing her shed tears of joy. "Is that you Astral?" The female energy being asked in joy, making Astral slightly widen his eyes at hearing her say his name.
"You know me?" Astral asked in confusion, wondering how this woman knows her. "Astral, it's me Enna. Your wife". The female being introduced herself as Astral's wife Enna, making Yuma and Rio gasp in shock. Even Astral looked shock at hearing what Enna said. "Wife? I don't remember having a wife". Astral said in shock that he had a wife, making Enna look at her husband in confusion.
"You don't remember me or our child?" Enna asked in concern for her husband as she held the baby in her arms carefully, making Astral even more confused at also having a child. "I apologise. But when I arrived in this world, I somehow lost my memories. That's why I'm having help to recover the Number cards. Once again I apologise". Astral apologised to Enna that he can't remember her, feeling sad that he can't remember the connection that they shared.
Enna continued looking at her husband in concern as she cried tears of sadness. "I see. I hope you can recover your memories". Enna replied to Astral, looking down at her child as she continued to cry tears of sadness. The sight of Enna crying made Astral feel guilt at being the cause of her sadness, making him grant his teeth before he flew down and wiped her tears away with his hands, making Enna look at her husband.
"I'm sorry that I can't remember you or our child, but I promise one day I'll remember everything about you Enna''. Astral told Enna, swearing that he'll remember her someday, making her smile at her husband. "I know you will, my love''. Enna replied to Astral with a smile, making him smile back at her.
Enna than looks up at Yuma and Rio. "Greetings, I am Enna and I come from Astral World". Enna introduced herself to Yuma and Rio. "I'm Yuma Tsukumo". Yuma introduced himself with a smile. "I'm Rio Kastle, nice to meet you Enna". Rio greeted Enna with a smile on her face. Enna looks at Rio and is surprised at her appearance.
"I can't believe it". Enna said in shock at seeing Rio, making her look confused as Enna continued staring at her. "What is it?" Rio asked Enna, wondering why she's looking at her like that. "Is that you Marin?" Enna asked in shock, calling Rio what Crystalzero called her, making Yuma and Astral looked confused at why Enna called Rio a different name.
"Ummm, I'm not this Marin lady you're talking about. I think you're just mistaking her for me''. Rio said nervously, wondering why Crystalzero and now Enna are calling her Marin. "Perhaps you are right, it would be impossible considering that I saw Marin die in front of me''. Enna said, looking down at the ground in sadness as she remembered her friend's death.
"I'm sorry to hear that''. Rio apologised to Enna about hearing that her friend was killed. "It's alright, you had no control over it''. Enna replied to Rio with a smile, before she looked at Yuma. "You said that your name was Yuma correct, as in Kazuma Tsukumo's son''. Enna said to Yuma, making everyone widen their eyes at hearing Enna say Yuma's father's name.
"You know my dad?!'' Yuma questioned in shock as he ran up to Enna, wanting to know how she knows his father. "Of course, he is the reason why Astral and I are here on earth''. Enna replied to Yuma, making him, Astral and Rio widen their eyes in shock.
"Your father asked me to give these to you''. Enna told Yuma as she held two cards out to Yuma with her right hand while she held her baby with her left hand, making Yuma look at the two cards. "Rank up magic…Astral force and… that's my dad's lucky Rainbow Kuriboh!'' Yuma called out in shock at seeing that Rainbow Kuriboh was one of the cards that Enna was giving him.
"Your father asked me to give these two cards to you, saying that they'll help you in your adventure''. Enna told Yuma as she gave the two cards to him.
"I see…thank you Enna''. Yuma thanked Enna with a smile, bowing a little in gratitude for her giving him these two cards. "It's the least I can do for your father for what he's done for Astral and I''. Enna replied to Yuma, before she looked back at Astral. "Astral, I left our home world because I wanted to be with you my love''. Enna told Astral that she left Astral world to be with him.
"Enna''. Astral said in a disbelief tone that she left their home world to be with him. "Even though you can't remember, I remember when we got married and when our child was born. I'll tell you everything in the emperor's key''. Enna said to Astral with a smile as she placed her right hand on his check, making Astral blush a little from feeling her hand.
Enna disappeared into the Emperor's key like how Astral disappears before Astral disappeared as well. "Well…that was…different''. Rio said with widen eyes at what she and Yuma just saw. "You can say that again. Anyway, we should go home now''. Yuma replied to Rio, taking notice of how late it's getting.
"You have a point. By the way, you think Tori's still playing with those cats?'' Rio asked Yuma if he thought that Tori was still playing with those cats, shivering a little as he chuckle at seeing her fear of cats.
(The next day at school)
Next day at heartland school, Yuma, Rio, Tori and Bronk were walking together to class in their school uniforms. "Come on Yuma. Those kitties really wanted to play and I couldn't say no. Yuma, why are you so angry?'' Tori tried to explain that she was forced to play with the kitties, walking behind Yuma with Rio and Bronk.
"First of all; I'm not mad and second of all, I got into some crap because of you''. Yuma replied to Tori with an annoyed expression on his face, getting annoyed at how she won't drop the subject. "I said I'm sorry!'' Tori apologized again, feeling bad that Yuma got into trouble because of her.
"Umm''. A familiar female voice said from behind the group, getting them to turn and see Cathy behind them, only wearing the pink female student outfit, looking nervous. "What's up''. Yuma greeted Cathy with a smile, greeting her with a smile. "Just…good morning''. Cathy said nervously, her checks red before she ran off.
"Who was that?''. Bronk asked in wonder, wondering who that was. "That's just rude Bronk, that's…ummm''. Tori told Bronk, trying to remember Cathy's name but can't. "Her name's Cathy, she's in our class''. Rio told Bronk and Tori, knowing who she is.
"She and I had a duel yesterday and she was impressive''. Yuma told Tori and Bronk about his duel with Cathy yesterday, making Tori frown in jealously at hearing that Cathy impressed him.
"She impressed you, I bet I could do better than her''. Tori said to Yuma, feeling jealous that he duelled Cathy yesterday. "Oh really, let's see if you can back that up later today''. Yuma replied to Tori with a smirk on his face, turning to look at her.
"Oh yeah, Yuma did you ever found who was pulling those pranks on you''. Bronk asked Yuma if he found the person that pulled those pranks on him, getting Yuma to look at him before he shrugged his shoulders. "No idea''. Yuma replied to Bronk, looking at where Cathy ran off, making Rio smile at seeing Yuma defend Cathy.
Up above the group of friends, Astral and Enna were watching Yuma and his friends with Enna holding hers and Astral's son in her arms. Like Astral, people can't see Enna. "Observation number 11: when hanging out with a female, a male understands the female more clearly''. Astral said, taking note of Yuma understanding girls better.
"Oh Astral''. Enna said in a lovely tone, looking at her husband with a smile, making Astral smile.
Done, that took longer than expected. Anyway, I got something to ask, in the first 4 episodes of Zeal, did Yuma sound more serious. Also if you guys have trouble trying to figure out Achacha Black Sniper's look, look up 'The cybergeist sniper assassin cyberpunk sci-fi Light up Full armor suit theatrical costume. Also everyone please leave more reviews than you did with last chapter. Also next to be updated is this story again, Fairy Tail and Arc v.
I should have mentioned this sooner, but look up Tsukumo Yuma (Yu-gi-oh! Zeal) #2051134 and you'll find Yuma's new look.
