Hello everybody and welcome. But first I've got something to say to someone.
Vincent Balmes: You can't be serious. I am not gonna have Ultear and Angel fall for Natsu, those parings don't work for me. I'm working on the chapter and close to finishing it, but it will still take time. Also I'm not gonna do Gajeel's group because nothing will change. Also a little heads up, I'm gonna update up Warcraft story next, but after that it'll be Fairy Tail, I promise.
Sorry about that, I had to say that. Now for some questions.
Guest: Yes Rio will Duel Anna.
Deathblessing99: Why would I do that?
Fangs of Death: Glad to hear that you think so highly of my story.
Dark Rebellion: Dark Rebellion already appeared.
Time Knight Leo: The Barians will search for her when they come to Earth.
That's all for now. Now enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 13: The one hundred sibling Duel.
The sun was high in the sky, brining another day to Heartland city. "Damn it, the first time in a month that I'm late to school! Why didn't you wake me up Astral?'' Yuma asked his partner as he was running down the street to school, having overslept from organizing his deck. Astral appeared from the Emperor's Key, floating with his arms and legs crossed. "It was pointless''. Astral answered his partner, making him growl.
"Yuma!'' A familiar voice called out, getting Yuma's attention as he saw Bronk riding his skateboard from behind him. "Bronk!" Yuma called out in surprise as Bronk passed him with a smirk. "Later!'' Bronk said with a smirk as he gave his friend the 'see ya' hand sign. "You son of a-!'' Yuma called out in anger as Bronk looked forward, only to see that he was coming close to running over a group of ducks. "Oh oh! Look out!'' Bronk called out in panic as he put on the breaks, which launched him off his skateboard and onto the ground in front of one of the baby ducks. "I meant to do that''. Bronk groaned out, before opening his eyes as the ducks continued on. "You okay Bronk!?'' Yuma called out in concern as he picked up his best friend's skateboard.
"Well that was a wipe out''. A beautiful voice stated as Bronk looked up to see Rio in front of him, looking beautiful with her hair and skirt blowing in the breeze. "Rio! Good morning!" Bronk greeted as he got up to his feet, getting Rio to smile at him before she took notice of a bruise on his arm. "Oh my, it looks like you've scraped your arm''. Rio said in concern as she brought out her handkerchief, before she went to wrap it around Bronk's arm, making him blush at the close contact. "That should do for now''. Rio said as she finished, taking a few steps back as Bronk looked at his arm.
"Th-Thank you very much''. Bronk thanked Rio with a blush, making her smile as she walked away. Bronk gained a love sick look on his face. "She's amazing''. Bronk said in bliss as Yuma rode his best friend's skateboard to school.
"All aboard!" Yuma called out with a smirk as Rio looked over her shoulder to see her boyfriend, making her smile brighten as she caught Yuma's left hand. Yuma pulled Rio behind him, joining him on the skateboard with the Ice Queen giving her boyfriend a hug and a kiss on the cheek, making him blush.
It has been a few days since they became a family with Kairi with Kari and Haru adoring the little girl. Today, Kairi was staying home with Haru since she doesn't go to school with both Yuma and Rio relived that their daughter would be safe when they're away.
Later on that day in class, Bronk was looking down at the handkerchief that Rio gave to him while Tori, Cathy, Flip, Caswell and Taiki surrounded him, looking at him in confusion since he's been out of it the whole day. Yuma was there as well, sitting at his desk, looking through his cards. "Rio!'' Brock called out in happiness as he held the handkerchief close to his face, making everyone sweat drop while Yuma looked annoyed.
Yuma and Rio still haven't let the cat out of the bag about their relationship yet and he was starting to regret it at seeing how Brock seemed crazy for his girlfriend. 'I'm gonna crush him!' Yuma screamed in his head as he ignored his friends trying to help Bronk confess to Rio. "Why not defeat Shark in a Duel?" Taiki suggested, getting everyone's attention. "That could work. If I beat Shark, Rio will... that decides it! I'm gonna go duel Shark!'' Brock called out in happiness as he started walking out of the classroom to find Shark. Shark had returned to school now since Rio threatened him if he doesn't come back, she'll let out one of his embarrassing secrets.
'I hope Shark crushes him like an ant'. Yuma thought to himself in anger, hoping his rival crushes Brock in a Duel. "Hey Yuma, what do you think-?'' Taiki asked his friend, before he stopped at seeing the annoyed look on Yuma's face. "Never mind''. Taiki said as he backed away from Yuma.
Later outside at another part of school, Brock was facing Shark, who had his back to him with his hands in his pockets. "You serious? You wanna go against me in a Duel for my sister?'' Shark questioned Brock if he was serious about his request. "T-That's right. And if I win...I get to take Rio out on a...'' Brock replied as his checks turned red.
"Face reality, you're not strong enough". Shark denied Bronk's request, getting him to lose the blush. "What was that!?" Brock called out with narrowed eyes as Shark turned around to face him. "The only person good enough is Yuma". Shark told Brock with narrowed eyes, who widened his eyes. "Yuma...? Then you only consider Yuma?!'' Brock questioned in shock as neither him or Shark noticed Caswell and Flip watching from the doorway.
"Consider him for what?" Caswell asked in confusion, turning to face Flip. "For Rio, I guess?'' Flip suggested, having no idea what Brock meant. "So then...it's Yuma''. Brock said in shock as he had a fantasy.
At a wedding hall, Yuma and Rio leaned towards each other, claiming each other's lips in a loving kiss. Yuma was wearing a black tuxedo, while Rio was wearing a light blue wedding dress, blue high heels and a blue veil over her head. Everyone applauded for them as Astral and Enna watched from above.
The fantasy faded away as Brock stared in shock. "So uhhhh, great talking to you Shark". Brock said in a trance as Shark walked past him, before collapsing onto his knees. "So...YOU ONLY ACCEPT YUMA AS RIO'S FUTURE HUSBAND!" Brock screamed out in sorrow, making Caswell and Flip widen their eyes. "Are you serious?!'' They both screamed out in shock.
(The next day)
The next day at school early in the morning, almost all the guys were crying their eyes out, while the girls were looking at something on their D-Pads. It was a site about Yuma and Rio being in a relationship. "What?!" Tori yelled up in a horrified scream as she read Flip's blog post that he had just shown her. She couldn't believe what she was reading. Rio and Yuma are dating?! Cathy didn't look happy either about the news.
"And that was when Shark said to Bronk that only Yuma could be Rio's boyfriend". Caswell ended his story with a smile. Taiki looked perplex at the blog that his D-Pad had on, before turning to look at Caswell and Flip. "You sure about this?" Taiki questioned the two, not really convinced.
"If I wasn't sure about it Taiki, I wouldn't have posted the entire story on the front page of my blog. 'Flip's daily quotes' so everyone could know about it". Flip said with a giant smile as Caswell laughed out.
"We were there the whole time. We heard it all". Caswell added in with a wide smile. "Well... good for them". Tori said in a calm tone, but an anger mark was shown at her temples. Cathy had sharped claws out and hissed angrily. "I won't forgive her!" Cathy growled out in rage, swearing revenge on Rio.
(With Rio)
Rio was currently walking down the hallway, looking down at her silver Emperor's Key with a smile. However, there were a number of boys and girls there with the males crying their eyes out as they looked at her, while the females were talking to each other. 'I wonder what's up with them?' Rio thought to herself in confusion at seeing the other students.
Rio saw a few girls huddled together, whispering about something. Getting curious, the Ice Queen slowly crept up to listen to what they were talking about. However, what she heard nearly made her eyes pop out.
"NOOOOOOOOO!''
(Meanwhile)
Bronk was standing at the school railing, waiting as Yuma approached him. Bronk had called him here because they had something very important to talk about. "What's up Bronk? Why'd you suddenly called me out here to talk?'' Yuma asked in confusion, but Bronk didn't turn to face him.
"Yuma…I'm really frustrated!'' Bronk called out as he turned around to face the 13-year-old, who looked confused. "Um okay, why is that?'' Yuma asked in confusion. He's never seen Bronk like this before.
"I'm frustrated because it can't be me, and that makes me super bumped. And super bumped is not fun''. Bronk replied to his best friend, confusing Yuma even more. "But Yuma, I know you and I are best buds, am I right?'' Bronk asked with a teary smile that Yuma nervously returned.
"Yeah Bronk. Of course". Yuma replied with a nervous smile. "That's why I'll try to be okay with this, but make Rio cry and we're gonna have words!'' Bronk called out as Yuma's eyes turned anime white in disbelief. "What the hell are you even talking about?!'' Yuma yelled out in confusion at what Bronk was saying.
"Yuma, Shark said that he supports you and Rio being together!'' Bronk explained as Yuma looked at him even more in disbelief. "You gotta be kidding me!?'' Yuma exclaimed in shock at what he was hearing. 'How the hell did Shark find out?' Yuma thought to himself in fear. Rio and him have kept their relationship a secret, so how is it that Bronk…let alone Shark found out?!
"So that's how everyone found out!?" A familiar voice said as both boys turned to see Rio walking up to them with an angry expression on her face. "Rio!'' Yuma exclaimed in surprise, before he sweated nervously as flames surrounded the Ice Queen. "So Reginald thought it would be funny to tell the whole school about us. He's gonna wish he kept his mouth shut when I'm done with him''. Rio said in rage as even the silver Emperor's Key was blowing from the flames.
(Later on at the Duel Field)
Later on at the Duel Field, Yuma, Rio and the rest of the gang were waiting for Shark to show up with the Ice Queen impatiently tapping her right foot. Speak of the Devil, Shark just walked in, only to be greeted by the enraged face of his younger sister, who got straight to the point and began to violently shake him by the collar.
"How!? How in the world did you find out about Yuma and I!?" Rio demanded as she continued to violently shake Shark by the collar. "What… are you talking about Rio?'' Shark questioned his enraged sister in confusion.
"Don't you play dumb with me! I heard what those girls in the hallway were saying about what you told Bronk!" Rio snapped at her brother as she continued to shake him even faster, while Shark still looked confused. "I honestly have no idea what you're talking about''. Shark replied to his enraged sister, who finally stopped shaking him.
"I admit that I should have told you, but that doesn't mean you can just tell the school because you were angry''. Rio said to her brother with narrowed eyes as she took a few steps back. "Um… Rio maybe…" Yuma attempted to defuse the situation, only to be silenced by the Ice Queen's fearsome glare. "Never mind''. Yuma finished as he backed away a little bit.
"What nonsense, I'm outta here!" Shark exclaimed as he turned around to walk away. "Running away?'' Rio questioned with a smirk, making Shark stop dead in his tracks. "And you have the name "Shark?" I'm so surprised! And yet you can't even handle an onion!" Rio taunted as Yuma gulped, while Shark's eyes were covered by his hair.
"And what's worse, peppers make you flinch''. Rio continued to taunt her brother as Shark gritted his teeth. "Shut it! You've got some nerve to disrespect your big brother!'' Shark snapped at his sister, turning to look at Rio. "Ha, guess this makes this our 100th sibling squabble Duel! Let's turn the tables!'' Rio replied to her brother as everyone widened their eyes.
"100th sibling squabble Duel!?'' Everyone called out in surprise at what they've learned as Astral and Enna appeared. "A battle between brother and sister. We should wear earplugs". Astral remarked with a smile that Yuma returned. "I'm just going to observe this Duel''. Enna said as she floated next to her husband, her arms holding their sleeping son.
"I'm locked and loaded!'' Shark called out as he activated his Duel Disk. "So am I!" Rio called out as she activated her Duel Disk as well. "Duel-Gazer, let's roll!" The Kastle siblings called out as they placed their Duel-gazers on. "AR Vision - Link established!'' The computer voice called out as the AR vision activated around the siblings. "Game on!" The Kastle siblings called out as they drew their starting hand.
Rio Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
Shark Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"Ladies' first! I draw!" Rio called out as she took the first move and drew. "I'll set a monster face down in DEF mode!'' Rio exclaimed as a face down card appeared in sideways motion. "Then, set a face down card and end my turn!'' Rio continued as another face down appeared on her field.
Shark Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"You call that a move?! I'll show you a real one! I draw!'' Shark called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion. "I discard White Moray in order to Special Summon White Stingray!'' Shark called out as he discarded a card, before a torrent of water appeared in front of him. The torrent disappeared to reveal White Stingray.
White Stingray ATK Points: 1400/ Level: 4.
"I'm not done yet! I play the Spell Card, White Mirror!'' Shark called out as the card appeared on his field. "This Spell allows me to summon a White monster from my graveyard and add a copy of that monster from my deck to my hand! Arise White Moray!'' Shark explained as a small white fish monster appeared on his field.
White Moray ATK Points: 600/ Level: 2.
Shark added a card from his deck to his hand as he began to smirk. "Now I think I'll summon another White Moray!'' Shark called out as another White Moray appeared on the field.
White Moray ATK Points: 600/ Level: 2.
"Oh, did I forget to mention that the White Moray revived from the graveyard becomes a Tuner monster?" Shark asked with a smirk as Rio narrowed her eyes. "Level 2 White Moray tunes with level 4 White Stingray and the other White Moray!'' Shark called out as his first White Moray turned into two green rings.
The green rings went around White Moray and Stingray as the two Fish monsters turned transparent, before they turned into 6 lights. A beam appeared and consumed the rings and lights. "I Synchro Summon White Aura Whale!'' Shark called out as a wave of water appeared before a giant white whale monster appeared, floating in the sky.
White Aura Whale ATK Points: 2800/ Level: 8.
"He already Synchro Summoned?!'' Yuma called out in shock as everyone looked at White Aura Whale, before their attention turned to the water that the Synchro Monster brought along and now covered the field. "This field's full of water!'' Cathy called out in horror as she jumped onto Yuma's back, making the 13-year-old widen his eyes in surprise.
"White Aura Whale, flatten that face down!'' Shark called out as White Aura Whale charged at Rio's face down monster. "Oh one more thing, White Aura Whale deals piercing damage!'' Shark added with a smirk as Rio slightly widened her eyes, before she narrowed them.
"I'll shut that big mouth of yours!'' Shark snapped as Rio's face down monster revealed to be Blizzard Lizard, before it shattered when White Aura Whale flattened it. (2800 – 1800 = 1000)
Rio Life Points: 40000 – 1000 = 3000.
"So much for your Blizzard Lizard!'' Shark taunted with a smirk that Rio returned. "Think again! When Blizzard Lizard is destroyed by battle, you take 300 Points of damage!'' Rio called out as she held out her right hand as the temperature turned cold as a small blizzard went through Shark.
Shark Life Points: 4000 – 300 = 3700.
"And now for my trap, Blizzard Illusion!'' Rio called out as her face down flipped face up with the image showing a cloaked man facing a Blizzard Lizard, but was unaware that two more were behind him.
(Blizzard Illusion/ Type: Trap/ Effect: If a monster you control is destroyed in battle, you can special summon the destroyed monster and two more monsters with the same name as the destroyed monster from the deck)
"This trap not only brings back my Blizzard Lizard, but summons the other two in my deck!'' Rio explained with a smirk as three Blizzard Lizards appeared on her field.
Blizzard Lizard DEF Points: 1800 X 3/ Level: 3.
"Looks like I outsmarted you Reginald!'' Rio exclaimed with a smirk on her face. "Oh really? Think again! When my whale destroys a monster in battle, it can attack again!'' Shark called out as White Aura Whale flattened one of the three Blizzard Lizards again. (2800 – 1800 = 1000)
Rio Life Points: 3000 – 1000 = 2000.
"In case you've forgotten, you take another 300 Points of damage thanks to Blizzard Lizard's effect!'' Rio reminded her brother as another blizzard storm went through Shark, decreasing his life points.
Shark Life Points: 3700 – 300 = 3400.
"Not bad little sis, guess I'll end my turn with a face down card''. Shark said as a face down appeared on his field.
Rio life Points: 2000/ Number of cards in hand: 4.
"Now it's my turn to deal some damage! I draw!'' Rio called out as she drew her card in a dramatic fashion. "I'll start off by summoning Blizzard Swan! I can Special Summon this card if I control two Water monsters!'' Rio exclaimed as Blizzard Swan appeared, flying around the field before landing next to the two Blizzard Lizards.
Blizzard Swan ATK Points: 1300/ Level: 3.
"Why should you have all the Synchro action? It's my turn now! Level 3 Blizzard Swan tunes with the two level 3 Blizzard Lizards!'' Rio called out as the two Blizzard Lizards took to the skies while Blizzard Swan turned into green rings.
The green rings went around the two Blizzard Lizards with the two monsters turning orange before they changed into 6 lights. A beam appeared that consumed the lights and rings before it slammed onto the ground behind Rio. "I Synchro Summon Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier!'' Rio cried out as her ace Synchro monster descended.
Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier ATK Points: 2700/ Level: 9.
"Am I supposed to be scared of a three headed lizard?'' Shark questioned as Rio narrowed her eyes at him. "Yes you are meant to be scared! I play Trishula's Special Ability! When it's summoned to the field through a Synchro Summon, one card on your field, hand and graveyard are removed from play!'' Rio called out as she held up her right hand.
Trishula unleashed a breath attack from all three of its heads at Shark and White Aura Whale. "The ones I choose are White Aura Whale, White Moray and the card on the far left!'' Rio made her choice as the breath attack frozen White Aura Whale, Shark's Duel Disk and the card at the far left being held by the older Kastle sibling.
White Aura Whale disappeared, along with the card and Shark's Duel Disk unfroze. "Can we talk about this?'' Shark asked his sister in hopes to avoid getting blasted. "NO! Trishula, attack my idiotic brother!'' Rio cried out as Trishula unleashed its three-headed breath attack.
"I can't believe you fell for it! Go Trap card, Draining Shield!'' Shark called out as he held out his right hand as his face down card revealed itself. "Oh no! That Trap not only negates my attack, but increases your Life Points by Trishula's ATK Points!'' Rio cried out in panic as a forcefield appeared around Shark and absorbed Trishula's breathe attack.
Shark Life Points: 3400 + 2700 = 6100.
"I gotta say sis, thanks for the extra Life Points''. Shark thanked his sister with a sly grin on his face, while Rio narrowed her eyes at him. "Oh yeah! Try this, the Spell Avenging Blizzard!'' Rio called out as she slotted in a spell. The card appeared on the field with the image showing three Blizzard Lizards attacking Junk Warrior in a blizzard storm.
(Avenging Blizzard/ Type: Spell/ Effect: For every Water Attribute monster in your graveyard, your opponent loses 200 life points for each one)
"For every one of my Water Attribute Monsters in my graveyard, you take 200 Points for each! Since there's 4, you lose 800 Points'' Rio explained as the Spell unleashed a blizzard storm at Shark, who grunted as his Life Points went down.
Shark Life Points: 6100 – 800 = 5300.
"I'll set one card face down and end my turn!" Rio called out as a face down card appeared on her field.
Shark Life Points: 5300/ Number of cards in hand: 2.
"Not bad. Shark had a countermeasure if Rio had a way to attack directly. Yet Rio had a card that dealt him damage. This duel could take a while''. Astral commented with his arms crossed as everyone that was watching was impressed so far.
"It's my turn now! I draw!'' Shark called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion before instantly playing it. "I play the Spell, Monster Reborn!'' Shark exclaimed as the Spell card appeared on his field. "With it, I'll bring back White Moray!'' Shark called out as White Moray reappeared on his field.
White Moray ATK Points: 600/ Level: 2.
"Now since I control a Water Attribute monster, I can summon Silent Angler!'' Shark called out as Silent Angler splashed out of the water, making a dramatic entrance.
Silent Angler ATK Points: 800/ Level: 4.
"Now say hello to Saber Shark!'' Shark called out as Saber Shark made a dramatic entrance out of the water.
Saber Shark ATK Points: 1600/ Level: 4.
"2 level 4 monsters, plus a Level 2 monster''. Enna commented with her eyes narrowed as Rio widened her eyes. "Oh oh''. Rio said in realization at what Shark is planning to summon. "Level 2 White Moray tunes with level 4 Silent Angler and Saber Shark!'' Shark cried out as both Silent Angler and Shark Shark flew into the sky.
White Moray turned into 2 green rings that went around Silent Angler and Saber Shark as if they was scanning them. Both Fish Type monsters turned into 8 lights. A beam appeared and consumed the lights and rings. "I Synchro Summon White Aura Biphamet!'' Shark called out as his ace Synchro Monster splashed out of the water, its two heads roaring at Trishula.
White Aura Biphamet ATK Points: 3300/ Level: 10.
"3300 ATK Points!'' Tori called out in shock as Cathy screamed at the sight of Biphamet. "Look at the size of that thing!'' Bronk exclaimed in shock, staring at the Level 10 Synchro Monster. "And it has more ATK Points than Rio's dragon!'' Caswell commented, taking notice of the difference in ATK Points.
"Go White Aura Biphamet, rip apart Rio's Lizard!'' Shark called out with a smirk on his face as he pointed at Trishula with his right hand's index finger. Biphamet roared as the water rose up, creating a tidal wave that washed away Trishula. (3300 – 2700 = 600)
Rio Life Points: 2000 – 600 = 1400.
"Trishula may be down, but not out! I play the Trap, Torrential Reborn!'' Rio called out as her face down card revealed itself. "With this card when my Water Attribute Monster is destroyed, I can special summon it back and you take 500 Points of damage!'' Rio explained as Trishula flew out of the water and into the sky, before unleashing a light blizzard at Shark, striking his Life Points.
Shark Life Points: 5300 – 500 = 4800.
"Not bad sis. I end my turn''. Shark said with a smirk on his face, declaring his turn over.
Rio life points: 1400/ Number of cards in hand: 2.
"My turn now!'' Rio called out as she drew her card in a dramatic fashion, before looking at it. "First I'll set a monster in DEF mode''. Rio began as a face down card appeared in a sideways position. "Play a face down card and switch Trishula to DEF mode''. Rio continued on as a face down card appeared on her field with Trishula turning blue.
Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier DEF Points: 2000.
"And that ends my turn!" Rio declared her turn over, holding her right hand out to the side.
Shark Life Points: 4800/ Number of cards in hand: 0.
"Oh please, I draw!" Shark called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion. "Biphamet, pulverize Trishula!'' Shark ordered as Biphamet roared out another tidal wave. "I don't think so! I play the Trap Synchro Deflector!'' Rio called out as her face down card revealed itself.
"With this Trap, your attack is negated and the monster with the lowest ATK on your field is destroyed! So say bye-bye to Biphamet!'' Rio explained as her trap fired a white beam at Biphamet, creating an explosion that covered the Synchro Monster from view.
"Alright, she got rid of that giant fish!'' Bronk called out in joy, before it was short lived as the smoke from the explosion cleared to reveal that Biphamet was unharmed. "What the!?'' Cathy and Tori called out in surprise as everyone, but a grinning Shark looked at the level 10 Synchro in shock.
"But… how?'' Rio questioned in disbelief as Shark just kept smirking. "Simple Rio, my Biphamet counts as two monsters!'' Shark called out as Rio, Yuma, Astral and Enna widened their eyes. "A monster that counts as two monsters?!'' Astral questioned in shock at hearing Biphamet's special powers.
"That means unless Rio destroys it with an effect that destroys one than one monster, Biphamet won't be destroyed''. Enna explained with wide eyes, looking up at the Level 10 Synchro in shock. "That's a troublesome effect, but Rio can handle it''. Yuma said as he crossed his arms, confident in his girlfriend.
"I'll set a face down and end my turn''. Shark said as a face down card appeared on his field.
Rio Life Points: 1400/ Number of cards in hand: 0.
Rio placed her right hand on the top card of her deck, but didn't draw. Rio looked down and saw that her own hand was shaking. "I'm…afraid…'' Rio whispered with wide eyes as Enna looked and indeed saw her partner hesitating to draw her card. Enna floated to her partner and looked at her in concern.
"Rio, what's wrong?" Enna asked her partner in concern as the Ice Queen looked at her. "I'm… afraid that I won't draw the right card''. Rio said to Enna, who frowned in concern. "Exactly! You're afraid that if you don't draw the right card, you'll lose!'' Shark called out as both Rio and Enna looked at him.
"Let's be honest, you don't stand a chance against me. We've Dueled 99 times and I've won all of them. What's gonna be different this time?'' Shark asked his sister, who kept silent as she gritted her teeth. "That's right, nothing! Remember back when we were kids, I taught you everything you know about Duel Monsters. True you became a strong Duelist to be able to wield Number Cards, but the fact remains that you can't do anything.'' Shark said to his sister, who was still silent, before she closed her eyes in anger.
"Don't… screw around with me…" Rio said in anger as her shoulders were shaking, making Shark narrow his eyes while Enna watched her partner in concern. "I'm not… I'm not some little girl who needs her big brother for everything! It's my choice on what I do and if that choice is having a boyfriend, you don't have any right to criticize me!'' Rio snapped at her brother, who widened his eyes.
"Hold up, what does having a boyfriend got to do with this?" Shark questioned, having no idea why she brought that up. "Don't play dumb! My turn!'' Rio snapped once more as she drew her card in a dramatic fashion. "Come on out Blizzard Falcon!" Rio called out as Blizzard Falcon's card appeared, before said monster flew out of it.
Blizzard Falcon ATK Points: 1500/ Level: 4.
"Now reveal yourself Blizzard Dragon!'' Rio called out as her face down sideways card flipped face up, revealing Blizzard Dragon, who roared.
Blizzard Dragon ATK Points: 1800/ Level: 4.
"I Overlay level 4 Blizzzard Dragon and Blizzard Falcon!'' Rio exclaimed as her two monsters turned into blue lights that descended into the air. A red Xyz portal appeared in the sky with the two lights going inside of it. "I Xyz Summon Ice Beast Zerofyne!'' Rio called out as her former ace monster appeared with two blue Overlay Units circling around her.
Ice Beast Zerofyne ATK Points: 2000/ Rank: 4/ Overlay units: 2.
"Not a bad move. Zerofyne has the power to both negate and weaken a monster that the opponent controls''. Astral commented with his arms crossed. "I activate Zerofyne's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, all other face up cards loses their effects and for each one, your monster loses 300 ATK Points!'' Rio explained as Zerofyne absorbed an Overlay Unit and unleashed an icy blizzard from her wings.
"Since the only other face up cards are Trishula and Biphamet, your monster loses 600 ATK Points!'' Rio called out as Biphamet slowy started to be trapped in ice.
White Aura Biphamet ATK Points: 3300 – 600 = 2700.
"Alright Rio!" Bronk called out in joy as Rio smirked at her brother. She was expecting to see shock or horror on his face, but instead she saw him smirking. "You're so predictable, little sister. Because of you, I can activate my Trap Card of Last Will!" Shark called out as his face down card revealed itself as everyone widened their eyes.
"If the ATK Points of one of my monsters change, I can draw until I have 5 cards in my hand!" Shark explained as he started drawing until he had a total of five cards in his hand. Rio looked at her brother in disbelief that her plan backfired, before she gritted her teeth. "Trishula, attack Biphamet!'' Rio ordered as her ace Synchro monster charged at Biphamet.
Both Synchro monsters clashed, before they exploded with everyone watching the two monsters' destruction. "Now you've got nothing left to defend yourself Reginald! Zerofyne, attack him directly!'' Rio called out as Zerofyne shot icicle spears at Shark, who stayed still as the spears barely missed him.
Shark Life Points: 4800 – 2000 = 2800.
"Not so tough now, are you Reginald?'' Rio asked with a smirk on her face, only for Shark to smirk back at her. "You really can't do anything right, can you?'' Shark replied to his sister with a smirk, confusing her.
Shark Life Points: 2800/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"I draw!" Shark called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion. "I summon Needle Sunfish!'' Shark called out as Needle Sunfish came out of the water.
Needle Sunfish ATK Points: 1500/ Level: 3.
"Now since I control a Fish monster, I can summon Shark Stickers!'' Shark called out as Shark Stickers splashed out of the water and into the air.
Shark Stickers ATK Points: 200/ Level: 3.
"Two Level 3 monsters…'' Yuma commented with narrowed eyes as Rio took a step back in fear. "I Overlay Level 3 Shark Stickers and Needle Sunfish!'' Shark exclaimed as his two monsters turned into two blue lights that descended into the sky. Appearing in front of Shark was a red galaxy portal with the two lights going in.
"Tear up the pitch black darkness! Come forth! Black Ray Lancer!'' Shark chanted out as Black Ray Lancer appeared with two black Overlay Units circling around him.
Black Ray Lancer ATK Points: 2100/ Rank: 3/ Overlay Units: 2.
"Not Black Ray Lancer!" Rio cried out in fear as she looked up at her brother's dark warrior. "Haha! I play Black Ray Lancer's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, your Zerofyne loses its ability!'' Shark explained as Black Ray Lancer absorbed one of its Overlay Units, before unleashing a torrando from its spear at Zerofyne.
"Why would he do that? Zerofyne can't use its ability on Shark's turn?'' Flip asked in confusion at witnissing Shark's move. "It was for Needle Sunfish''. Yuma answered Flip, getting his friends to look at him in confusion.
"Yuma's correct! The monster I used for Black Ray Lancer was Needle Sunfish and when he's sent to the graveyard, one of your monsters loses 500 ATK Points!" Shark explained with a smirk as a black portal appeared under Zerofyne.
Needles came out and stabbed Zerofyne, making her moan out in pain as she powered down.
Ice Beast Zerofyne ATK Points: 2000 – 500 = 1500.
"Zerofyne no!" Rio called out in shock, looking up at her Xyz Monster with wide eyes. "Zerofyne yes! Go Black Ray Lancer, destroy Zerofyne!'' Shark called out as Black Ray Lancer threw his spear at Zerofyne, tearing through her stomach. Zerofyne screamed out in pain as she exploded. (2100 – 1500 = 600)
Rio Life Points: 1400 – 600 = 800.
Rio stared up in shock at witnessing Zerofyne's destruction, before she collapsed to her knees, making Yuma, Astral and Enna frown in concern for her. Shark had narrowed eyes at seeing his sister like that. "I'll set one face down and end my turn''. Shark said as a face down card appeared on his field.
Rio Life Points: 800/ Number of cards in hand: 0.
Rio made no move to draw her card, just continued to stare down in shock. "I… just can't win…'' Rio said in defeat, her spirit broken at how Shark counters everything she throws. "You made a mistake in your last turn Rio. If you had used Blizzard Dragon's effect to seal away my attack, none of this would have happened. You lost focus and allowed anger to control you''. Shark told his sister with narrowed eyes, who looked down in shame.
'Trishula…I'm sorry…' Rio thought to herself in sadness that she let her favorite monster be destroyed out of anger. "Look at you! You loose Zerofyne and your spirit is broken. If it's that easy to shatter your confidence, you'll never be able to call yourself a Duelist!'' Shark called out as tears started to form in Rio's eyes.
"Now if you're not gonna draw your card, you might as well forfeit''. Shark told his sister, watching her with narrowed eyes. Rio made no reply as she moved her right hand to her Duel Disk, intending to forfeit. "Don't give up Rio!'' Yuma called out to his girlfriend, getting Rio to look at her boyfriend. "Shark may have more cards than you and Black Ray Lancer on his field, but you can still win this! Have you forgotten about Feeling the Flow?!'' Yuma told his girlfriend, who slowly started to regain her spirit.
"Yuma…'' Rio said in a soft tone, slowly beginning to smile. "I know you can win this, you just gotta believe in yourself and that way, you can high five the sky! Besides, have you forgotten about Kairi?'' Yuma asked his girlfriend, whose eyes widened as she remembered the little 5-year-old.
Rio slowly narrowed her eyes as she got back on her feet. "You're right Yuma. I can't give up! I'm gonna feel the flow and win this! My turn!" Rio called out as she drew her card in a dramatic fashion. "I'll start off with the Graceful Charity Spell! This allows me to draw 3 cards, but then discard 2!'' Rio explained as she drew 3 more cards before she discarded two.
"Allow me to introduce a new monster called Blizzard Fairy!'' Rio called out as a blue long haired fairy like monster appeared. She had silver icy wings, pale skin and blue eyes like the sky. She was wearing a blue dress made of ice and ice designed high heels. In her left hand was a icy wand.
(Blizzard Fairy/ Level: 3/ Attribute: Water/ Type: Fairy/ Tuner/ Effect/ ATK Points: 1000/ DEF Points: 500/ Effect: Once per turn, you can Special Summon one Water Attribute monster from your Graveyard to the field. If this card leaves the field as material for a Fusion, Synchro or Xyz summon, draw 1 card from your deck)
"I play Blizzard Fairy's special ability! Once a turn, I can summon a Water Attribute Monster from my Graveyard so arise Blizzard Warrior!'' Rio called out as she held out her right hand. Blizzard Fairy waved her wand around as a small blizzard tornado appeared, before it cleared to reveal an icy blue armor Warrior.
Blizzard Warrior ATK Points: 1400/ Level: 3.
"When did she send that card to the graveyard?'' Cathy questioned from her spot on Yuma's back, having stayed there during the whole Duel. "She must have sent it to the Graveyard by Graceful Charity''. Yuma told Cathy as he took notice of the two monsters' levels.
"Now Level 3 Blizzard Fairy tunes with level 3 Blizzard Warrior!'' Rio cried out as she held up her right hand as her two monsters descended into the sky. Blizzard Fairy turned into three green rings that went around Blizzard Warrior, looking like they were scanning him as it turned into three lights.
A beam appeared that consumed the lights and rings as a dragon's roar was heard. "Great Dragon of the icy lands, come forth and freeze our enemies! I Synchro Summon Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier!'' Rio called out as a icy dragon flew out of the beam and roared as it floated in front of Rio.
Brionax, Dragon of the Ice Barrier ATK Points: 2300/ Level 6.
"Real impressive, but what's it gonna do? Even if it destroys Black Ray Lancer, I'll still have Life Points''. Shark said with a smirk on his face. "We'll see about that Reginald. When Blizzard Fairy is used as a material for a Synchro Summon, I draw a card!" Rio called out as she drew another card from her deck.
"Now I activate Brionax's Special Ability! By discarding a card, I can return one of your cards to your hand!" Rio explained as Shark widened his eyes. "What?!'' Shark called out in surprise as Rio discarded her card. "Be gone Black Ray Lancer!'' Rio called out as Brionax roared into the sky as a blizzard storm came out of nowhere.
The water around the field froze as Black Ray Lancer was encased in ice, before it shattered. Shark took Black Ray Lancer's card and returned it to his Extra Deck. "With Black Ray Lancer gone, you're wide open! Brionax, attack him directly!'' Rio called out as Brionax unleashed a breath attack. The breath attack slammed into the ground in front of Shark, creating an explosion that blew him off his feet, but he manged to land on his feet.
Shark Life Points: 2800 - 2300 = 500.
"I'll just end my turn''. Rio said as Brionax floated in front of her.
Shark Life Points: 500/ Number of cards in hand: 3.
"You came at me when you had nothing and even summoned a powerful monster. I gotta admit, you've grown up Rio''. Shark said with a smile on his face as he closed his eyes. "I didn't do it alone Reginald. I was gonna forfeit in despair, but Yuma reminded me about something I learned from him. To feel the flow and never surrender until it's over''. Rio replied to her brother with a smile as she looked at the boy who stole her heart, who smiled at her.
"Rio… I'm proud of you''. Enna said with a smile on her face, which Rio nodded to her in thanks. "Besides, I've got someone who looks up to me now, so I won't surrender and disappoint her''. Rio added with narrowed eyes, making Shark chuckle. "I see… however you still have much to learn!'' Shark shouted out as his eyes shot open.
"My turn!'' Shark called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion. "I reveal the Trap, Synchro Spirits!'' Shark called out as his face down card revealed itself. "By removing a Synchro Monster from play, I can Special Summon the monsters used to summon it! I remove White Aura Biphamet to summon White Moray, Silent Angler and Saber Shark!'' Shark called out as three black portals appeared with White Moray, Silent Angler and Saber Shark coming out.
White Moray DEF Points: 200/ Level: 2.
Saber Shark DEF Points: 1200/ Level: 4.
Silent Angler DEF Points: 1400/ Level: 4.
"The White Moray summoned from the Graveyard is treated as a Tuner monster! I Tune Level 4 Silent Angler with level 2 White Moray!'' Shark called out as Silent Angler took to the skies while White Moray turned into two green rings.
The green rings went around Silent Angler, scanning the Fish Type monster as it turned orange before becoming 4 lights. A beam appeared and consumed the lights and rings as it slammed into the ground, shattering the frozen waters.
"I Synchro Summon the fierce creature of the deep! Coral Dragon!" Shark called out as an underwater like dragon appeared, roaring as it shattered the ice.
Coral Dragon ATK Points: 2400/ Level: 6.
"2400 ATK Points?!" Rio called out in shock, looking up at her brother's dragon. "I activate Coral Dragon's Special Ability! By discarding a card, I can destroy one monster you control!" Shark explained his Synchro Monster's ability as everyone widened their eyes.
"Oh no!" Rio called out in horror, before she looked at Brionax. "Oh yes! But first I'll discard Big Jaws!'' Shark started as he sent Big Jaw's card to the Graveyard. "So that your Dragon goes bye-bye!'' Shark finished with a smirk as Coral Dragon unleashed a sprout of water from its mouth, pushing Brionax into the water before it drowned.
"Brionax!" Rio called out in hopes for her dragon to reply, only to hear dead silence. "It's over! Pulverize her, Coral Dragon!'' Shark called out as he held out his left fist as Coral Dragon unleashed more water from its mouth, soaking Rio with water as her Life Points dropped.
Rio Life Points: 800 – 2400 = 0000.
Winner: Shark!
Rio collapsed onto her knees as a screen appeared, announcing Shark as the victor before the AR vision deactivated. "She lost''. Tori said in sadness for her friend as she took her Duel Gazer off. "But she never gave up''. Yuma remarked with a smile as he crossed his arms.
Rio, who had collapsed to her knees, sighed. "You win again". Rio said, looking up at her older twin who walked over to her. "But next time you won't be so lucky onion boy". Rio said with a confident smile as she got back on her feet.
"Looks like you're getting better, so at least there's that". Shark said with his own smirk, making Rio pout at him. Rio's pout soon turned into a look of anger. "But still, why did you go off and tell everyone about my relationship?!" Rio asked, pointing her left hand's index finger at the confused Shark.
"Hold on, all I said to Bronk was Yuma's the only one good enough to duel me. What's this about a relationship?" Shark asked confused, making both Rio and Yuma paled at the revelation. "Well... what is it?" Shark asked in a commanding tone as he narrowed his eyes at his best friend and twin sister.
Looking back between her brother and the others, Rio gave a defeated sigh, seeing there was no escaping it now. "YUMA AND I ARE DATING!" Rio shouted out, causing everyone's jaw to drop. Shark stood there still as a statue as his eyes began twitching. He slowly turn his neck with a cracking sound towards Yuma as his eyes became shadowed, showing only a pair of glowing red eyes.
"Yuma... RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" Bronk shouted at his best friend, who made a break for the exit with a ferocious Shark close behind. "YUMA YOU MISERABLE BASTARD! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" Shark roared as he chased after the 13-year-old. "PLEASE SPARE ME!" Yuma shouted out in fear as he ran out of the field with Shark right behind him, while Astral floated after his partner.
"Rio… you and Yuma were together the whole time?'' Tori slowly asked her friend in shock as Cathy bared her fangs at the Ice Queen. "Not the whole time. We got together right after his duel with Kaze". Rio replied to Tori, who looked down.
"I see. So, looks like you won Yuma in the end. I'm… happy for you". Tori said to her friend as she gave a smile that Rio returned. "Thanks Tori. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to stop my brother from killing my boyfriend". Rio bid farewell as she left the field with Enna to go after her boyfriend and brother.
Back with Yuma, he was running as fast as he could from the still raging Shark. They were outside the school, passing through other students, who watched in shock. "I believe that this could have been avoided if you had told him sooner''. Astral commented as he floated next to his partner.
"YEAH RIGHT!'' Yuma snapped at his partner as Shark was getting closer to him. "I'LL BREAK YOUR SOUL INTO PIECES!" Shark shouted out in rage, scaring Yuma even more as he picked up the pace. "DON'T YOU THINK YOU'RE OVERREACTING?!" Yuma asked in fear without turning to look at his rival.
"YOU HAD THE NERVE TO TOUCH MY SISTER BEHIND MY BACK AND EVEN SWAP SALIVA WITH HER! I'LL KILL YOU!'' Shark snapped at Yuma in rage. "CAN'T WE JUST SETTLE THIS IN A DUEL?!" Yuma asked in fear, a duel being his best option to live. "NO! NO DUEL, JUST DEATH!" Shark snapped back at Yuma.
"Daddy, uncle?'' A familiar voice said as Shark and Yuma immediately stopped and turned to see Kairi with Haru at the school entrance. "Kairi? Grandma? What are you doing here?'' Yuma asked in surprise to see his 'daughter' and grandmother here. "Kairi wanted to see what a school was like so I brought her here''. Haru told her grandson with a smile.
"Uncle, why are you trying to kill daddy?'' Kairi asked Shark in confusion, giving him the cutesy eyes. 'Oh no. Not the cutesy eyes'. Shark thought to himself as he couldn't resist those eyes. "Your so called dad was actually dating my sister the whole time''. Shark told Kairi as he knelt down in front of her.
"Oh, is that all? Mommy and daddy were obviously together''. Kairi said to Shark with a smile as Haru gave Yuma a dark glare, who started sweating in fear. "You make it sound like it was so simple to see''. Shark said with a small smile on his face. "There you two are!" Rio called out as she walked up to her brother and boyfriend before she took notice of Kairi and Haru there.
"Kairi? Mrs. Tsukumo? Why are you guys here at school?'' Rio asked as she picked up Kairi with a smile on her face. "I wanted to see what a school was like and grandma was kind enough to take me". Kairi answered her mother with a smile on her face.
"Really? Thank you for looking after her Mrs. Tsukumo''. Rio thanked Haru with a smile. "It was no problem dear. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to talk to my grandson about something''. Haru said as she started dragging Yuma by his ear. "Not the ear''. Yuma groaned out in pain as Astral and Enna watched the humans.
"Humans can be so strange at times''. Astral commented with his arms crossed as Enna smiled at him. "But that's what makes them interesting''. Enna said to her husband as she rocked her baby gently.
"Rio, why did you keep your relationship with Yuma a secret?" Shark asked his sister as he gave her a small glare. "Because I knew you'd try to kill him like how you just tried. Besides, Yuma's a really sweet, fun, brave and loving guy. Those are the things that made me like him so I decided I wanted him as my boyfriend. Not to mention he's your best friend". Rio explained to her brother, doing her best to keep herself from outright telling Shark that Yuma stole her heart.
"He's not my best friend!'' Shark shouted out at his sister. "Uncle's lying. Him and Papa are best friends forever". Kairi commented as Rio gave her daughter a soft pat. "Thank you Kairi''. Rio thanked her daughter as she gave Shark a small smirk, who grumbled at the look she was giving him.
"Anyway, come on Kairi. I want you to meet some friends of mine". Rio said as she started walking back to school with Kairi in her hands. "Hold up, this discussion isn't over!'' Shark called out as he chased after his sister, refusing to let her walk away just like that.
I know it was short compared to my other chapters, but I'll try to make it up next chapter.
