"My lady." A familiar voice said to Vernice who looked at him. "Another has arrived."

"Very well send someone after whoever it is and have them on a D-Wheel in case that duelist interferes. I wish to see what he can do in terms of riding duels." She said and the man nodded before rushing out.

8 pm

Julio dropped off Kila he arrived home where he received a call from his mother telling him she'd be be working a very late shift. He ended up just ordering a pizza for the three of them before spending the time explaining things about dueling and figuring out how they would deal with sleeping arrangements. He ultimately decided to hold off on it till his mom arrived since Compa and Neptune were fine with sleeping in the same room as him so long as he didn't try anything. The girls decided to watch TV and see what was available to watch and eventually started watching some reruns of some old duels to help get affiliated with their method of fighting. Julio had decided to edit his deck to incorporate more synchro monsters and tuning along with some support.

"Hmm. This card will work good especially for bringing out Scarlight." He muttered before a deep voice spoke up.

"Things will be lively around here won't they?" Dark said in Julio's mind.

"Yeah they will. I wonder what Neptune's friends will be like?" Julio said as he removed a card from his deck. "I hope they're not as hyperactive as Neptune is."

"Well just watch yourself after all you will be one guy among many girls." Dark reminded him causing him to sigh. "So why did you choose to help them? I know it's more than them being friends."

"Well they need help and it's not like this won't involve us especially since they plan to take over our world ." Julio said. "Also I think they can help me get stronger as a duelist."

"Yes I can understand that. Just know I will have your back every step of the way." Dark said before disappearing.

"I know you will." Julio said smiling to himself before looking over his deck once more and gave a satisfied nod. "Alright this will be good for now." He placed his deck down and moved all the other cards into the case. The door opened and the two girls walked in talking in excited tones about a duel. "What are you two talking about?"

"Oh a duel we saw on TV." Neptune said. "It was awesome."

"Oh really? What was it?" Julio asked since he'd likely know which it was.

"It was this chick named Katrina against a guy named Eden." Neptune said after a bit of thinking.

"Oh that one. Yeah it's considered one of the best duels out there." Julio said in realization.

"Yeah those spellcasters were awesome!" Neptune said happily. The duel in question was a championship match that was a Spellbook vs Cyber Dragon with Katrina and Eden using them respectively. Katrina had managed to pull a narrow victory that shocked many. She had gone on to become the duel queen for a while till she lost to the current king a couple years back.

"Those robot dragons were scary though especially that one with all those heads." Compa said referring to the Chimeratech that almost won Eden the duel but Karime had managed to block its last couple attacks. "But that lady pulled out all those cards to protect herself!"

"Well nice to see you two enjoying good duels." Julio said as he rose up and stretched a bit and he noticed a beeping on his D-Tablet. It was a message from his mother. It asked if he could stop by the store and pick up a few things for tomorrow's dinner along with the list for what she needs. Luckily the store is open 24 hours so doing so would be easy. "Well I gotta head to the store. You guys can stay here while I get what my mom needs." He grabbed his D-Tablet and walked out.

"Okay just be careful those guys could attack." Neptune called after him

"Don't worry about it. I can handle that." Julio called back as he entered the garage and grabbed his helmet before opening the door. He got onto his D-Wheel and drove away with the door closing behind him. He drove off and after about twenty minutes of driving arrived at the store. He took off his helmet and shook his head before switching off the D-Wheel before heading inside. He was greeted by a couple of workers before he grabbed a basket and went to through the aisles getting whatever the list said. He also decided to get a couple things to snack on for himself including some sour gummy worms that he had a very strong weakness for. He thought about it and grabbed a couple packs of pudding for Neptune. He didn't know what to get Compa so he figured Neptune wouldn't mind sharing her pudding with Compa. He payed for everything before heading back to the D-Wheel. He placed all the bags into a compartment that opened on the side of his D-Wheel but before he could drive off a small object collided with him. He fell to the ground on his back and groaned.

"Is this gonna be a running gag?" Julio moaned as he looked at what hit him. It was a chibi girl with long brown hair that had a leafy bow with emerald eyes and fair skin. She wore a oversized blue coat with black, silver and white detailing over a black tank top and short-short style one piece with silver detailing and a belt around her waist and boots that matched her jacket. She had a belt on her coat with numerous cell phones of varying colors. The two had a mini stare down before Julio broke the silence.

"Hi." He said causing the girl to blink before replying.

"Hello." She said cautiously.

"I'm guessing you're friends with Neptune and Compa." Julio stated before a sharp blade was pointed at his neck.

"How do you know about them?" The girl growled with hostility.

"I'm that guy that Histoire spoke to and asked for help. I can tell you something about Neptune and Compa if you want proof." Julio said a bit scared.

"Okay then." She said a but less hostile.

"Neptune loves pudding to the point it's like she's addicted and Compa is a nurse. They both call Histoire Histy." Julio said and after a bit she took the blade from his neck.

"Alright. Just be warned I'll be on guard." The girl said coldly.

"Got it. Name's Julio by the way." He said as IF hopped off him and he stood up.

"I'm IF." She said before looking around. "Where are they?"

"They're at my house I left to get some stuff for dinner tomorrow they should be fine." Julio answered. "You don't seem to be worried you're tiny."

"Histoire informed me what would happen." She said simply. "Now I want to get to them."

"Alright." Julio said before noticing a card on the floor. He picked it up and saw IF on it. He placed it into his deck before getting on his bike. He switched it on and placed on his helmet before glancing at IF who seemed unsure. "Hop onto my lap. It's not like there's much else you can sit on without flying off." IF considered this before floating on to his lap and getting a grip on his jeans. Julio started the D-Wheel before taking off onto the bridge. IF looked around at the city in slight amazement.

"Impressed?" Julio asked and IF blinked.

"Well I'll admit this city's pretty cool but I'm not entirely impressed. I've seen some pretty grand cities in my adventures." IF responded.

"Oh right those nations Neptune told me about. From what I hear they're all pretty advanced." Julio said before he noticed a D-Wheel coming towards him. It was a standard jet black one but he noticed the one driving it wore a cloak and Julio scowled. "Great."
"What?" IF said before it drove alongside Julio and she noticed he cloaked man. The man pressed a button and caused a beeping to start from Julio's runner.
"Executing Speed World Neo. Autopilot standby." A woman's voice said causing Julio to scowl as a red blade extended into a duel disk and he placed his deck into a slot. A dark dome flared around them and began to move along with them as they drove on

A alarm played as an announcement played. "A riding duel is about to commence. A riding duel is about to commence. Please enter the designated area." A green line appeared for a route that regular cars would usually take and the bridge began to shift and change before there was a path the two duelists had to take leading to a another route with barricades on the side and yellow archways. The two drew their hand and placed it on a special place to hold their cards.

"What's going on?" IF said in alarm.

"I'll explain later." Julio said as he applied more speed as a bend came up. The two entered a race to see who would clear the bend first. Julio made it first and the two duelist shouted in unison.

"RIDING DUEL! ACCELERATION!"

Julio LP: 4000 Hand: 5

Turn 1

~Cue Yugioh ARC V Neo Riding Duel~

"I'll be going first since I reached the corner first." Julio said as he looked at his hand. "I summon Marauding Captain." A warrior with dual swords and silver armor appeared and flew alongside the D-Wheel. He also had a tattered red cape. His appearance gave off that this guy had been through alot of a battles.

Marauding Captain
ATK: 1200 DEF: 400
Level: 3 Earth
Warrior/Effect

"Marauding Captain's effect activates! When he's normal summoned I can special summon a level four or lower monster to the field!" Julio declared. "I special summon Dark Blade." Dark Blade appeared and began to fly as well. "I end my turn with two face downs."

Julio LP: 4000 Hand: 1
Duelist LP: 4000 Hand: 5+1
Turn 2

"My turn draw." The man said before drawing his card. He then activated a spell. "I activate Dark Fusion!" The card art showed to a man and a woman who looked like superheroes surrounded by a golden aura and they both looked to be in pain and a dark figure in the background.

Dark Fusion
Spell/Normal

"With it I'll fuse the Edge Imp Scissors and Fluffal Bear in my hand." A swirl of dark light similar to that of Polymerization appeared but it gave off an evil vibe that made IF shudder. A monster with glowing red eyes appeared that was literally nothing but scissors pinned together appeared alongside a cute fuzzy pink teddy bear with a red scarf of sorts and wings appeared. It was absolutely adorable to IF but she kept in a squeal. Julio's eyes widened as he recognized the deck.

Edge Imp Scissors
ATK: 1200 DEF: 800
Level: 3 Dark
Fiend/Effect

Fluffal Bear
ATK: 1200 DEF: 800
Level: 3 Earth
Fairy/Effect

"Well crap that ain't good." Julio said confusing IF as the monsters disappeared into the light.

"What do you mean?" IF asked.

"You'll see." Julio said as the man began to chant.

"Claws of the demon! Fangs of the beast! Become one and reveal your ghastly new form, nd tremendous strength! Fusion summon! Appear, horrifying beast that shreds everything, Frightfur Bear!" The man roared as the Fluffal Bear appeared seemingly innocent but it's arms burst revealing larger paws connected to its body with scissors. It's stomach burst open revealing a large pair of scissors in its stomach. It's head separated into to parts and out popped a pair of googly eyes from the head with razor sharp teeth on the top and bottom. In between the two parts were a pair of glowing red eyes.

Frightfur Bear
ATK: 2200 DEF: 1800
Level: 6 Dark
Fiend/Fusion/Effect

"What did he do to that poor teddy bear?" IF cried out.

"That's the Frightfur deck. It's cute fluffy stuffed animals gone horribly wrong. I remember the first time I saw this deck as a kid and the nightmares that followed." Julio said darkly as he stared down the beast.

"Battle! Frightfur Bear attack his Marauding Captain!" He declared. The bear lashed out and grabbed the Captain who flailed before a snap was heard and the warrior fell limp. Julio flinched at the brutal scene before activating a trap.

"I activate Defense Draw! If I would take battle damage during your battle phase I can make it zero and I get to draw a card." Julio said drawing his card. Then to his and IF's further horror the bear lifted the limp warrior and dropped him into its mouth. "THAT'S NOT RIGHT!" Julio and IF yelled in unison at the sight.

"Frightfur Bear's ability when he destroys a by battle and sends it to the Graveyard I can us that monster as an equip spell for Frightfur Bear and he gains 1000 ATK points." The man said smirking at the two's disgust. "I end my turn."

~End theme~

Julio LP: 4000 Hand: 2+1
Duelist LP: 4000 Hand: 3
Turn 3

~Cue Yugioh ARC V Duel of Rebellion~

"I draw!" Julio said and studied the cards he had in his hand. "I summon Command Knight." The female knight appeared and a faint glow surrounded her and Dark Blade.

Command Knight
ATK: 1200+400= 1600
Dark Blade
ATK: 1800+400= 2200

"I then build the overlay network!" Julio declared as the portal appeared and the two warriors turned into small streaks of light and flew into the portal. A bolt of lightning shot into the portal.

"Formed from pitch-black darkness, to fight those foolish enough to oppose it with its treacherous fangs! Now, descend! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon!" Julio chanted as Dark appeared with a roar that caused IF to stare in awe at the dragon. She had to admit this dragon was far more intimidating than any monster back at Gamindustri and it gave off such a powerful aura but she wondered what was with those two orbs of light circling it.

"You will pay for what you did to my ally!" Dark snarled causing IF to feel slight fear at the anger this dragon gave off. She felt a very dark feeling from him and honestly she felt a bit of the same feeling from Julio a bit when he summoned him.

"Alright. I activate Dark Rebellion's effect by detaching two overlay units I can cut your monster's attack in half and add it to Dark Rebellion's!" Julio said as the two orbs disappeared before its wings spread apart and began to charge in purple lightning that surrounded Frightfur Bear causing it to look weakened. "Treason Discharge!"

Frightfur Bear
ATK: 3200/2= 1600
Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon
ATK: 2500+1600= 4100

"Battle!" Julio said as lightning began to surge around Dark. "Dark Rebellion attack his Frightfur Bear!" Dark obliged and shot forward as lightning spread to its fangs. "Revolt of the lightning. Disobey!" Dark slammed it's fangs into its gut and the bear struggled before falling limp. Dark then removed it's fangs and from the whole Marauding Captain fell through the hole left by Dark before fading away into the grave.

Duelist LP: 4000-2500= 1500

They then heard the sound of the chopper and looked up and noticed that the news team had been filming the duel.

"Crap! Mom's definitely seeing this on the news!" Julio yelped.

At the house

"Nep-Nep!" Compa cried out seeing the duel on the news.

"What?" Neptune asked rushing into the living room and let out a yelp. "Holy nep! It's Julio and wait is that?" Neptune's eyes widened before meeting Compa's

"IFFY!" The two yelled.

"We gotta go help them." Neptune declared.

"Buy what can we do? We're stuck here." Compa pointed out. "We just have to trust in Jul-Jul and Iffy."

"Jul-Jul?"

"I had trouble pronouncing his name." Compa said embarrassed.

"Well I'm sure he wouldn't mind." Neptune said before noticing the dragon. "HOLY- That's a cool dragon!"

"It looks scary." Compa said a bit scared.

"That must be that duel spirit that Julio has!" Neptune said in amazement. "Good thing it's on or side."

Kila's house

"Authorities have scanned the duel runners with sensors and noticed that the man with a cloak has a program that forces others to participate in a duel and have concluded that the other young man has been forced into it and as such no punishments shall be placed on him. The man however isn't likely to receive the same treatment. Strange energy readings our in the air around them but people are baffled by what it could be" A female reporter stated sending relief into Kila who had begun watching the broadcast. She then noticed IF on Julio's lap.

"That duel spirit with Julio must be another friend of Neptune and Compa's." Kila said out loud. "I hope he can handle this."

Back with the duel

"I set a card and end my turn." Julio declared as they raced around a corner. Julio glanced at Dark who returned it. They knew this guy's counterattack was about to begin.

~End theme~

Julio LP: 4000 Hand: 1
Duelist LP: 4000 Hand: 3+1
Turn 4

"I draw!" The man declared before looking at the card. "I activate my Frightfur Patchwork!" it showed the image of stuffed animals being torn apart and a dark cloud entering it. "With it I'll add an Edge Imp monster and Polymerization."

Frightfur Patchwork
Spell/Normal

"I'll add Edge Imp Saw to my hand along with Polymerization." He said adding the cards to his hand before smirking. "Next I'll fuse the Edge Imp Saw I just added and the Fluffal Leo in my hand with Polymerization!" He declared as a saw with glowing red eyes appeared and a stuffed yellow lion that caused IF to sadden knowing what was about to happen to it. "Steel blades possessed by demons. Become one with the fanged beast, and show us a new form and power! Fusion Summon! Show yourself! King of the hundred beasts that tears everything to pieces! Frightfur Leo!"

The fluffy lion appeared before bursting open it's sprouting a golden circular saw with several attached to the saw. It's eyes gained red eyes and a large golden circular saw in its chest that it's limbs were connected tpp. that and on it's paws three sharp red claws appeared and so did it's feet. It lead out a roar before it raced alongside it's duelist.

Frightfur Leo
ATK: 2400 DEF: 2000
Level 7 Dark
Fiend/Fusion/Effect

"I'm not done I activate Frightfur Fusion!" He said smirking darkly. "With it I can use monsters on the field or grave as fusion materials so long as they match the requirements of a Frightfur fusion monster in my extra deck though those materials are removed from play!" The card showed several toys being wrapped by ribbons and being pulled into a colorful swirl.

Frightfur Fusion
Spell/Normal

"I'll use the Frightfur Bear and all the Edge Imp and Fluffal monsters in the grave!" All of them appeared before disappearing into a colorful swirl. "Show yourself! Wild ghost-cave beast that bares fangs at all! Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!" A large blue and black saber-tooth tiger appeared with several knives jutting out of it with its tail literally being a knife stabbed into it's butt. It had sharp teeth with an open mouth and inside of it glowing red eyes flashed. It let out a roar of anger as it raced alongside the runner. Dark let out a roar of challenge in response.

Frightfur Sabre-Tooth
ATK:2400 DEF: 2000
Level: 8 Dark
Fiend/Fusion/Effect

"Frightfur Sabre-Tooth's ability activates all Frightfur monsters I control gain 400 ATK points." The duelist said smirking as a red glow surrounded his monsters.

Frightfur Leo
ATK: 2400+400= 2800
Frightfur Sabre-Tooth
ATK: 2400+400= 2800

"I activate Leo's special ability once per turn I can target a face-up monster my opponent controls and destroy it! In addition you'll take damage equal to that monster's original ATK!" The lion cackled maniacally as it began to soot energy saws from the saws on it's head that impaled Dark through his chest. Dark howled in pain as he shattered. Julio winced at that before playing a card.

"Go Damage Diet!" Julio declared. The card showed what looked like a girl avoiding a pair of punches. "With this I can halve all effect damage I take this turn!"

Damage Diet
Trap/Normal

2500/2= 1250
Julio LP: 4000-1250= 2750

"You'll still have to deal with Saber-Tooth's attack!" The man said as the monster shot forward about to slash Julio but he reacted quickly.

"Go Counter Gate!" Julio said activating the trap which showed the first person shot of a monster watching another come out of a gate with a portal. A large gate split into two appeared and blocked the attack. "When you attack me directly I can activate this trap with it your attack is negated and I get to draw a card and if it's a monster I can normal summon it."

Counter Gate
Trap/Normal

Julio drew is card and smirked. "I summon my Rose, Warrior of Revenge!" The warrior appeared through the gate and landed on her feet before floating alongside the runner

"I set a card and end my turn." The man declared.

Julio LP: 2750 Hand: 1+1
Duelist LP: 1500 Hand: 0
Turn 5

"I draw." Julio declared but the man smirked as he activated a trap.

"I activate Drop Off!" The card showed a hand dropping a sword. "With it you discard the card you just drew."

Drop Off
Trap/Normal

"Thanks for that." Julio said smiling surprising the man. "That card was Card of Compensation when it's sent from my hand to the grave I get to draw two cards" With that he drew his cards to the man's annoyance. "I then normal summon my Luster Dragon!" The dragon appeared and flapped it's wings to keep up with Julio. "Unfortunately I don't have a level four or lower monster in my hand so I can't use his effect."

"So it's not like you can-" The man was cut off.

"I turn my level four Luster Dragon with my level four Rose. Warrior of Revenge!" Julio declared as Rose turned into four rings and Luster Dragon hopped into the center of the rings before turning into four stars. "Come forth Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend!" The dragon appeared and roared a challenge against the man's monster's who roared back. IF stared in amazement at the dragon who glanced at her and gave a small nod that shocked her. "Next Scarlight's effect! He can destroy all special summoned effect monster's on the field with ATK equal or less than his! Then you take 500 points of damage hundred for each one!" Julio declared as Scarlight began to generate fire in his arm. "Absolute Power Flame!" Scarlight fired the attack and it collided into the two monster's incinerating Leo but his other monster was just fine.

Duelist LP: 1500-500= 1000

"What!?" Julio and IF said in shock. "How's it still standing?" Julio demanded.

"Simple since I used more than three materials for his Fusion summon he can't be destroyed by battle or card effects." He said smirking.

"Fine, Scarlight! Attack his monster. Your monster may not be destroyed but you'll still be taking damage! Infernal Crimson Hell Burning!" Julio declared as Scarlight fired a stream of flames that collided with the Frightfur but it withstood the attack.

Duelist LP: 1000-200= 800

"I set a card and end my turn." Julio said as the two duelist went onto two separate roads.

Julio LP: 2750 Hand: 1
Duelist LP: 800 Hand: 0+1
Turn 6

~Cue Yugioh ARC V: Cornered Duelist~

"I draw." He looked at the card and smirked. "I activate Card of Demise!" The spell showed a man watching in horror as his deck was cut in half by a guillotine. "With it I draw till I have five cards in my hand! But after my 5th standby phase of activating this card I lose my hand but the duel won't last that long." He drew his five cards and smirked.

Card of Demise
Spell/Normal

"I then activate Pot of Greed. I'll draw two" He said drawing his two cards. "Now i activate Soul Absorption!" He declared activating the spell that showed what looked like spirits attacking a monster. "I then activate Soul Release. With it I can remove from play u to five cards in either of our graves. I remove Dark Rebellion, Marauding Captain, Rose, Warrior of Revenge, dark Blade and Command Knight!" Julio scowled as the cards were removed. "Soul Absorption activates. When cards a removed from play it activates and for each one removed I gain 500 Life points!"

Soul Absorption
Spell/Continuous
Soul Release
Spell/Normal

Duelist LP: 800+2500= 3300

"Next I activate another Polymerization!" The man declared. "This time I'll fuse another Edge Imp Scissors and the Fluffal Sheep in my hand." The scissors appeared again but this time alongside a orange sheep with small wings that disappeared into the portal. "Demonic claws, sharp fangs! Become one in the mystic vortex and show us a new form and power! Fusion summon! Show yourself! Mystical jungle beast that rips everything to shreds! Frightfur Tiger!"

A large blue and black tiger appeared standing on its hind legs it had a ;pair of scissors in its chest like Frightfur Bear and had its arms connected with scissors as well. It's paws had sharp pink claws and it's eyes were a bright green. It cackled before springing alongside the D-Wheel.

Frightfur Tiger
ATK: 1900 DEF: 1200
Level: 6 Dark
Fiend/Fusion/Effect

"Wait that sheep just turned into a tiger." IF said dumbfounded.

"IF a little warning a lot of things don't make sense in this game. I once dueled against a giant hamburger before." Julio commented. IF blinked at that.
"Frightfur Tiger's effect! All Frightfur monsters I control gain 300 ATK for each Fluffal or Frightfur monster I have on the field plus there's my Saber-Tooth's effect so they get 400 more!"

Frightfur Saber-Tooth
ATK: 2800+600= 3400
Frightfur Tiger
ATK: 1900+400+600= 2900

"That's not good." Julio said in worry.

"Frightfur Saber-Tooth attack and destroy his dragon!" The man said smirking. Julio activated his trap in response.

"I activate Enduring Soul! When a face-up attack position monster would be destroyed by battle it loses 800 ATK instead!" Julio declared as a golden spirit shot out of the trap and formed a protective aura around Scarlight who raised his arms and forced off the attack.

Enduring Soul
Trap/Continuous

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend
ATK: 3000-800= 2200

Julio LP: 2750-400= 2350

"Fine. Frightfur Tiger attack his dragon!" The man said as the tiger raked it's claws against Scarlight who roared in pain but remained on the field.

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend
ATK: 2200-800= 1400

Julio LP: 2350-700= 1650

"I end my turn with that." He said smirking.

Julio LP: 1650 Hand: 1+1
Duelist LP: 3300 Hand: 0
Turn 7

"I need to draw the right card in order to turn this around. Come on deck don't fail me now." Julio thought to himself as he closed his eyes and drew his card. "I draw!" Julio opened his eyes and smirked.

~Cue Fang of Critias theme~

"I activate my spell card Double Spell!" The card showed two magicians attacking each other with blue and red orbs that crackled with electricity. "By sending a spell card in my hand to the grave I can choose one spell in your grave and use it's effect and I choose Card of Demise!" Julio declared sending a card to the grave as a blue light and show towards the other duelist's grave. The art on Double Spell turned into Card of Demise's. "I'll draw five!" Julio said and drew the five cards.

Double Spell
Spell/Normal

Julio looked at his hand and smirked before turning to IF. "Hey want to help me kick this guy's ass?"

"You don't even need to ask." IF said smirking.

"By removing from play a card in my graveyard I can special summon Maker IF to the field!" Julio declared banishing Card of Compensation. IF hopped off of Julio's lap and a bright light appeared leaving her at a height of 4'11 as she floated alongside the runner to her surprise. Looking at her in her full height he realized she was rather beautiful. He threw of those thoughts before returning to the duel.

Maker IF
ATK: 2100 DEF: 1200
Level: 6 Wind
Warrior/Effect

"Woah!" IF exclaimed as she tried to get use to the idea she was flying. "This will take some getting use to." She muttered before drawing her weapons from her sleeves. "Alright let's do this."

"I then activate Riryoku!" Julio declared. The cad showed a man looking like his soul was being ripped from his body by a dark force. "I can select the two face-up monsters on the field and I can halve the ATK of one and that ATK another Monster! I choose Frightfur Saber-Tooth and Scarlight!" A orb of light shot through the Toy's chest and left it looking weak before it went to Scarlight's and caused the dragon to roar in fury.

Riryoku
Spell/Normal

Frightfur Saber-Tooth
3400/2= 1700

Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend
ATK: 1400+1700= 3100

"Next I'll equip IF with my United We Stand equip spell. Now she gains 800 ATK for each face-up monster on my side of the field." IF smiled as a bright energy flowed through her causing her to feel stronger.

Maker IF
ATK: 2100+1600= 3700

"I feel like I can take on an army." IF said excited.

"Scarlight hit them with Absolute Power Flame!" Julio declared activating his dragon's effect. Scarlight roared in anger as it sent another stream of flames colliding with the toys. Frightfur Tiger was destroyed but Saber-Tooth remained. The man yelled in pain as the flames seared him.

Duelist LP: 3300-500= 2800

"Now that Tiger's gone your Saber-Tooth loses it's boost." Julio said causing the man to scowl.

Frightfur Saber-Tooth
ATK: 1700-600= 1100

"Scarlight attack his monster!" Scarlight roared generating flames around his right fist before rushing forward and slamming his fist into the toy's head sending it rolling the ground. The man grunted as he lost life points.

Duelist LP: 2800-2000= 800

"IF your up." IF nodded before rushing the downed monster her blades glowing blue as she jumped forward. "IF's monster effect if she battles a monster with a higher rank or level than hers she can cut that monster's ATK in half." Julio declared as IF began to send multiple glowing blue attacks that pierced Saber-Tooth to the ground.

Frightfur Saber-Tooth
1100/2= 550

"Time to end this." IF declared as she shot forward and slammed her glowing blades into the monster creating a explosion. The man yelled in pain since he was caught in the explosion and his life points drained to zero.

Duelist LP: 800-3150= 0
Winner Julio

~End theme~

Julio stopped the D-Wheel and quickly got off before sprinting to IF who walked out of the smoke like a badass. Scarlight gave a roar before he disappeared.

"Wow that was awesome." Julio complimented causing IF to smile in thanks.
"Thanks." She said boastfully.

"Come on we better get going to my house." Julio said and IF nodded before the two walked to the D-Wheel. Before they can get on IF turned back to her small form to her dislike so she had to hop onto Julio's lap not that she particularly minded the fact. "Let's go." Julio declared before driving off back to the road. It took a bit since the duel took them across the city but they managed to arrive back at the house. Julio drove into the garage and took off his helmet before shaking his head to fix his hair.

"Come on they should be inside." IF nodded and the two walked in before IF was tackled to the ground from the air by two small objects. Neptune and Compa had tackled IF and were giving her tight hugs.

"IFFY!" The two cried out before Julio noticed that she was having trouble breathing and picked them up before separating them. IF gave Julio a grateful smile before turning back to the girls.

"Geez be careful you guys almost killed me." IF scolded.

"Sorry Iffy." Neptune said. "But I'm just happy that you're here."

"Yessy." Compa said in agreement.

"Well I'm glad to see you too but I'd like some info on what exactly was that." IF said referring to the duel. "Histoire informed everyone about the whole card game thing but not about the dueling on motorcycles."

"Oh that was just one way we duel here." Julio answered. "Turbo duels or riding duels as they're called lately. I prefer turbo duels though."

"So what's different from the other game?" Neptune asked.

"Well apart from driving around on motorcycles. There is the field spell Speed World. There's a bunch of different ones but the two used today. Speed World Neo is used for action duels or regular duels if you don't want to use speed spells while on a D-Wheel."

"Speed spells?" Compa asked confused.

"About to get to that. Speed spells are spells that can only be used during a turbo duel using Speed World 2. Speed spells are unique spells in the fact that they use speed counters. Speed counters are generated using Speed World 2. During each of of a duelist standby phase they get a speed counter which can be used for speed spells or the effects of Speed World 2." Julio said before yawning. "That's about it for now. I'm tired and need to get ready for sleep."

"Okay we'll tell Iffy about all that's happened so far." Neptune said as Julio left to his room.

"So what exactly happened?"

"Well when I arrived I met Julio and his friend Kila. She's really cool and pretty. You'll like her she's a bit like you. Anyway after I met them we were attacked by one of those cloaked guys but Julio dueled him and we won. Then today Compa showed up and the same thing happened again and we won again. We also met Julio's other friend Dan. He's super straightforward and likes to get to the point so you'll probably like him." Neptune said all this in rapid succession without taking a breath and IF somehow understood it all.

"Gotcha so we'll have to rely on Julio for the heavy lifting. Also you have cards right?" IF asked and the two nodded. "Then why didn't he summon you guys back there?"

"Oh he left our cards here because according to him we can't go all that far without our cards being nearby and hde figured they wouldn't attack us since they did earlier but guess we were wrong." Neptune said scratching his head. "By the way what was it like seeing those two awesome dragons up close like that?"

"It was pretty cool. The bigger one seemed a bit violent but he seems okay. The black one though. I got chills in a bad way about him like he's...I don't know he just gives this vibe that scares me a bit." IF said.

"Wow that scary? Guess it's a good thing he's on our side." Before Julio rushed out of his room.

"FORGOT THE BAGS!" Julio yelled rushing into the garage before returning moments later with a couple of bags. "Phew mom would kill me if I forgot them." Julio said walking into the kitchen and placing the bags out before walking back into the living room and noticed the girls were blushing. He glanced down and realized he didn't have a shirt on so his muscles were revealed. Surprisingly Julio was despite his scrawny physique well built he didn't have a six pack or anything but he looked strong. "Sorry." He said before rushing back to his room.

"Well. Let's not focus on that." Neptune said embarrassed and the other two nodded.

Meanwhile

"Another loss." Vernice sighed as she watched the duelist be brought into a med bay severely burned. "Oh well we have more on that deck of his."

"That dragon." A teenage male voice said. Vernice turned her head and was greeted by a teen roughly around 5'4 with dark purple eyes and and wild black hair with purple highlights his face resembled Julio's slightly but it was likely the look in his eyes. He had pale skin and wore a purple waistcoat over a black shirt. He wore black jeans over purple and black boots. A purple D-Tablet was on his wrist and he held a purple monster card. "I want to see it in person."

"Very well. Do not engage him just observe." Vernice said in a motherly tone. "Be careful Doku."

"I will." He said walking away with a cold smile on his face.

Back with the others

Julio had taken his shower and was relaxing on the couch with the others. Compa and Neptune had fallen asleep but IF was awake with him watching a movie.

"So what was with those dragons?" IF asked out of nowhere.

"Hmm. Oh you mean Dark and Scar?" Julio asked and she nodded. "I guess you mean their attitudes. Scar has a lot of pride and confidence in his abilities and honestly in terms of pure power he's probably my strongest. He can be hostile but if you earn his respect he's loyal to the end. It took so long for him to stop being so mean to me when I first received him."

"From who?"

"My brother. He moved out a while back and gave me his card as a farewell. I take great care of him." Julio said smiling fondly.

"And Dark?"

"Well I got him when I was about five and the details are all fuzzy. But I remember a friend giving him to me and ever since then I've had this guy with me since then. When I was younger he was a sort of guardian angel. He protected me from a lot of dangers both in duel and out of duel."

"Sounds like a good friend."

"Yeah he is though for some reason he has strong dislike for my friend Dan's ace. I don't know why but he does." Julio said shrugging. "Any other questions?"

"No." IF said simply before a scary part of the movie occured and she screamed and clung to his arm. She blushed and let go causing Julio to blink.

"You look cute blushing." Julio said surprising himself and IF blushed again. "Sorry didn't mean to say that out loud."

"It's fine I'll take the compliment." IF said before yawning.

"Sleepy?" Julio asked and she nodded. "Well you want to sleep with them or in my room?"

"I'll sleep in here. Let you have your room yourself." IF said and Julio nodded before heading to his room. IF switched off the TV and curled up on the couch thinking back to what Julio said. She didn't mind it all that much to be honest and Julio's pretty cute himself. She blushed to herself before pushing the thoughts out of her head for now. She'll think about it tomorrow amd with that she turned off the TV and went to sleep.

AN: And that's done. Sorry it took a while but I have final exams so it's interfering. Thankfully Christmas break is almost here. Anyway back to the story. IF was a bit hard to figure out since she's more of an offensive character and I didn't want to do multi attacks again so I decided on the current ability it has now. Now for reviews.

Note: made some edits on some mistakes I made during the chapter.

Guest Quest: wow a lot of feedback so let's answer each of those questions.

Yeah I agree I wasn't really feeling the divine thing so I'll probably change it to light later.

I considered that immensely but ultimately decided for more cohesiveness with synchro. I have a couple pendulum monsters in mind but that's it.

I may go for that whole Nep-tuning since that's something she'd probably do.

Oh trust me I have something planned for Accel Synchro and POSSIBLY Limit Over Accel Synchro. As for double tuning I'm still working on that but I have two ideas in mind.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake I really appreciate it because I don't have the time to check every single thing and I don't play Harpie's all that much. And yes I'd very much like the help. Sorry for forgetting to answer the question

Thanks for the tip I'll look into that in the future. It will especially help for a big one I have planned.

If MaxGundam is fine with it then yeah I'll go for it. And I agree with the whole idea to let there decks evolve more since as they are now Anna would DEFINITELY beat Julio especially since his deck doesn't have too much going for it. Only issues I see is that he's planning to use Link summoning while I'm not.

MaxGundam1998: Thanks for the review I am working on adding more details to my duels.

Guest: And your question is answered. I have Julio planned to get Plutia but as for Peashy the person I plan on obtaining will be getting her. Uzume I'm giving some thought.

ARSLOTHES: Glad to see you're enjoying the fic.

Now regarding IF and Julio. Yes they are in fact the couple I'm going for. If you want I can go into more detail why but I'll do that next chapter.

Now we have IF's card.

Maker IF

Level 6 Wind attribute ATK: 2100 DEF: 1200

Warrior/Effect

You can special summon this card from your hand by removing a spell card in you're graveyard from play. If this card battles a monster with a level or rank higher than this card's halve that monster's ATK points this change lasts only till the end phase. When this card is destroyed you can add one CPU or Maker monster from your deck to you hand.

IF was a bit hard since like Neptune she's a offensive character so I had to improvise what she can do so rather than have her attack twice or gain ATK I decided to have her reduce the opponent's ATK. Also I'm aware Julio uses United We Stand a lot but it's one of my favorite equip spells and it's a good one so Julio will be using it more often. And if you're wondering Enduring Soul was used by Yusei in his final duel against Bruno(RIP).

Next we have the major question: Zarc. I wanted to not have him make a physical appearance and just influence Julio and the others but the more I thought about it the more it seemed interesting. Now as you can guess I have revealed two of the dimension dragon users excluding Julio so I want to know. Would you want to see Zarc play a bigger role? I truly want your answers on this. If you don't then I understand. But if you do then I'll look into ideas about how to use Zarc better than ARC V did.

Please leave a review with your thoughts, ideas, and favorite parts. If you have any deck suggestions that Julio should go up against than feel free to suggest it. Custom card ideas are also welcome. Any constructive criticism is appreciated but flames are not.
