After that hard chapter it's time to see what is Dan going up against in the Friendship Cup's exhibition match. Who was it? Let's find out here!

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC but I own Dan!

Roget was in his office going over his chess board like usual giving thoughts before a holographic screen popped up showing pictures of Yugo, and Zuzu, "Sir we've located your two duelists of interest. Would you like us to detain them?"

"No, no, just keep an eye on them for now." Roget told the Officer, "After all, the game is only now just beginning. And trust me, things are about to get far more interesting."

As he said that he turned to see Sergey, and a silhouette of a man was there as he smirked. Looks as though that he has plans to win the Friendship Cup, and do away with Dan as much as he can.

(Cue Theme: Hyper Drive)

Going fast makes me feel alive.
My heart beats in hyper drive.
Do you think you can win?
Only if I lose.
Just let destiny choose.

[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.

Take a shot at me runnin' side by side.
It's a blur... as I go by.

[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.

See the sun arising.
Fire in the sky.
Greatness thrusts itself into our lives.

Dan was in a small blue, and green Turbo Dueling Uniform ready to begin. After everything they had been back with the kids, and were glad they were okay. They explained all that happened, and were shocked, and enraged by Roget's crimes on the Satellite, and displayed no remorse about it, and shocked, and worried for Dan since he kept on getting electrocuted by Armstrong's cheating, and hard times getting away from trouble. Leo, and Luna were shocked about that Primo is back but after some explaining they agreed that Primo is no longer someone to harm people. And soon they had been working on making sure Dan can be ready to Turbo Duel.

Dan at the most part was both exciting, and nervous, and excited because this will be the very first Turbo Duel he's gonna have, and a bit concerned with whoever his opponent will be even with this much people watching in. He has his work cut out for him that's for sure, and knows that it's gonna be tough to win the Friendship Cup in order for Roget to answer to his crimes, and restore the peace that he had undone. And first part is the exhibition match, and after that figuring out the rules of the Friendship Cup.

"Howdy, folks! I am your host Melissa Trail, and welcome to the openin' ceremonies of the rootin-est, tootin'-est tournament in town! The Friendship Cup!" a bright orange haired woman looking like a cowboy announced in giant holographic images, "I'm sure you're just as excited as two pigs in a pen to see the people of our great city come together in the spirit of friendship and competition. Now, what say you all put your hands together and make some noise for all the courageous competitors who'll be competing in this rip-roaring contest of cards! Let's give it up! Yee-haw!"

Dan listened as the crowd cheered breathing in, and out calming down.

'Dan?'

He turned to see Ray appearing beside him, "Yes Ray?"

'Remember Dan. Dueling is about having fun. Never for winning or losing. I know how angry you are about Roget but you can't let anger cloud your vision.' Ray told him.

Dan looked down, "He... has a lot to answer for."

'I know Dan, and I understand. But you need to have fun.' Ray told him softly making him turn to her which she smiled, 'Don't let his words get to your head just have a good time dueling your opponent okay?'

"Okay." Dan smiled nodding now feeling calm.

"Hey."

Dan turned to see a brown haired boy who said, "Your match is about to start. Follow me."

Dan nodded as they walked as Dan carefully got on a Duel Board as he connected his Duel Disk with it while putting on a blue helmet that has green lines with a green visor. His Duel Board is fully blue with green linings with mini rockets on the bottom with mini wheels on it, 'Okay... Gotta stay careful.'

"And now to kick the party off is a special exhibition duel! As you all know that it's Jack vs a duelist but this year a string is pulled! Instead of Jack it's someone who had quite a reputation from the WRGP!"Melissa Trail announced to them catching Dan's attention.

'I'm facing a WRGP Competitor... I hope it isn't someone from Team Unicorn, or Catastrophe... Or Ragnarok...' Dan thought at that.

"Give it up for the Team that has come from Sweedin, and wields 3 powerful monsters, Team Ragnarok!" Melissa Trail called as three men all in Duel Runners rode in as the audience cheered as the they stopped showing themselves as three men all in pale blue clothing with a logo of a R, and eyes on the chest with one scarred, and took off their helmets showing one is a orange haired man, one is a blue haired man, and one is a black, and brown haired man, "Let's welcome Dragan, Broder, and Halldor!"

"Hey there! Ha good to meet ya!" the orange haired man greeted waving to the crowd.

Dan was in shock seeing Team Ragnarok, 'Oh man... What did I got myself into...?'

"And why waste time when we have to introduce their opponent? Which means we have someone else to introduce as well. So without further ado, here he is, Team Ragnarok's challenger!" Melissa Trail called to them.

'Well that's my cue.' Dan thought taking a deep breath before charging into the arena.

"Here he is, the little duelist with big skills, Dan Kizami!" Melissa Trail announced as Dan entered the arena.

The audience did nothing as Dan stopped where Team Ragnarok is turning to them.

Meanwhile at the stands Zuzu having on a white Turbo Dueling uniform with Yugo asked in shock, "Can it be?"

The orange haired man grinned at Dan, "Ah! I didn't know you were a kid! But here on the Dueling Field don't mistake us to hold back!"

"I-I don't plan on doing so Broder." Dan admitted to him, "So who I'm I facing from your Team?"

"Your against Broder." the blue haired man answered simply, "He was ready to represent us here."

"And we can sit back, and watch the show." the black, and brown haired man mentioned as Broder grinned.

"Yep. I'm your opponent for this match." Broder grinned making a thumb to himself.

Dan nodded offering a hand to him, "May the best duelist win."

"Agreed." Broder nodded taking his hand shaking it.

"Oh looks like both Dan, and Team Ragnarok are ready to begin the exhibition duel!"Melissa Trail called seeing this as the audience cheered.

Meanwhile...

At a room were the Lancers who were being learned the Rules of the Friendship Cup, and were watching Dan's match against Team Ragnarok.

"I hope Dan will be okay." Yuya said worried.

"It's okay Yuya. Little D has always been through thick, and thin." Gong told him.

Yuya turned to him stating, "I know but... Dan knows what those guys might do, and they might be better then him."

"Then we put our faith in him." Dennis grinned to him, "After all Dan Kizami is a clever strategist."

Yuya turned back to the screen concerned for Dan.

"Alright Turbo Duelists get ready!" Melissa Trail declared as Dan, and Broder stopped at the starting line.

The brown, and black haired man remarked, "You know Halldor I feel bad for the kid. Broder sure isn't one to hold back."

"Indeed. I would be surprised if he can defeat Broder." the blue-haired man Halldor agreed.

Riley asked worried, "Can Dan managed?"

"If he can beat Declan then he can beat this guy." Yuya told her.

"Duel Mode Engaged Auto Pilot Activated. Activating Field Spell: Speed World Neo." the Duel Runners said.

Speed World Neo

Field Spell Card

This card cannot be destroyed.

"Speed World Neo? Not Speed World 2, and not worrying about Speed Spells?" Dan asked confused blinking.

Ray guessed, 'Maybe the Turbo Duels in this series are different.'

"I guess... Well it sure does save me trouble of finding Speed Spells." Dan admitted as the countdown started before breathing, 'Okay calm down Dan... This is your first Turbo Duel, and your up against a Team Raganarok member... But uh what is his Nordic God again...?'

"3... 2... 1... GO!"

"LET'S DUEL!"

(Dueling Theme: Feel Invincible (Nightcore) by Skillet)

Dan: 4000

Broder: 4000

Let the duel begin!

The two sped off as Dan jumped a little startled at the Acceleration but still sped which allowed Broder to get ahead.

"Well guess this means I'm first." Broder grinned.

Dan shake it off, and answered, "Yeah agreed."

Broder 1st Turn:

"In that case I'm first." Broder said drawing before saying, "And why not we start with Mara of the Nordic Alfar!"

A blue cloud like being appeared.

Dark Type

Level 2

Spellcaster/Tuner

ATK: 1000

DEF: 500

When using this card as Synchro Material, the other Synchro Materials must be 2 "Nordic" monsters in your hand.

'Mara...?' Dan thought confused having never seen this monster.

"What can Broder do with that thing?" Celina asked.

"If I had to guess he might be planning something here." Yuya mentioned.

Broder then grinned, "Mara here is a Special Alfar. Because when being used for Synchro Summoning I can use 'Nordic' Monsters in my hand!"

'Wait what?' Dan thought shocked not expecting that knowing what that means.

"Now my level 2 Mara of the Nordic Alfar tunes the level 4 Ljosalf of the Nordic Alfar, and the level 4 Tyr of the Nordic Champions in my hand!" Broder grinned as Mara turned to 2 rings as the two monsters in his hand turned to 8 stars making 10.

"Level 10 Synchro on his first turn!?" Yuya asked shocked.

"From the hand!?" Shay asked shocked.

A rune appeared in Broder's eye as he called, "Whimsical god born from the stars, show us your absolute power and laugh at the world! Synchro Summon! Descend, Loki, Lord of the Aesir!"

At that a black, and purple robed trickster descend laughing with a grin.

When Summoned this way: You can target 1 Trap in your GY; add that target to your hand.

"Who-ho nelly! Who would ever thought that Broder managed to summon Loki on his first ever turn!" Melissa Trail cried amazed as the crowd cheered highly at Loki now on the field.

"Dan..." Riley trailed off worried.

"Now I'll set 1 card down. Your move now kid." Broder grinned.

Dan 1st Turn:

'Well this isn't what I was planning... A Nordic God already...' Dan thought looking up at Loki grunting. 'But I can't let this stop me!'

"I draw!" Dan called drawing seeing his hand has Dark Resonator, Red Nova, Red Dragon Vase, Garbage Lord, Dimension Wall, and his drawn card being Power Invader. "And by paying 2000 Life Points I can summon Garbage Lord from my hand!"

Garbage Lord appeared readying his staff.

The two flew up.

(LV: 3 + 5 = 8)

"From the depths of the secrets of the Crimson Dragon! Resolve, and reform into one mighty dragon born from the inferno! Synchro Summon! Hot Red Dragon Archfiend!"

At that Hot Red Dragon Archfiend appeared roaring flying alongside him.

"Hold on what?" Broder asked shocked.

"Well I'll be it seems like our new buddy here has a different version of Jack Atlas' Red Dragon Archfiends!" Melissa Trail called shocked.

"Hey how did he get that?" a Tops man asked.

"Maybe he stole it from Jack!" a Tops woman proclaimed as they ridicule Dan who winced a little.

'I forgot how much terrible, and horrible the Tops are.' Dan thought as he said, "I activate Hot Red Dragon Archfiend's Special Ability! It's a game changer! So now I destroy all other monsters on the field other then himself!"

Hot Red Dragon Archfiend roared before firing flames which Loki shattered.

"With the road clear Hot Red Dragon Archfiend attack him!" Dan called as his dragon tackled Broder who stumbled a bit on his Duel Runner. (Broder: 1000)

"Lookie there!" Melissa Trail announced.

"He's doing it!" Riley cheered.

"Who cares if Broder summons a level 10 Synchro it is nothing against Little Dan!" Gong grinned.

"Well it looks like Broder won't be beating anyone." Yuya grinned.

Dan grinned, "Looks like you let your guard down."

"Ah man! How could I let my guard down!" Broder cried dramatically before grinning, "Oh wait no I didn't!"

"Huh?" Dan asked confused.

"You see I knew you would destroy Loki for an attack so I came prepared with this! The trap, The Golden Apples!" Broder grinned.

The Golden Apples

Normal Trap Card

When you take battle damage while you control no monsters: Gain LP equal to the battle damage you took, and if you do, Special Summon 1 "Malus Token" (Fiend/DARK/Level 1/ATK ?/DEF ?). Its ATK/DEF are each equal to the amount of LP you gained by this effect.

"This restores all the Life Points you just took!"

"W-What!?" Dan asked shocked as Broder was healed. (Broder: 4000)

"He set Dan up for that!?" Sylvio asked shocked.

"And then I get to summon a Malus Token who's attack points are equal to the damage I took!" Broder grinned as a rainbow fiend appeared.

Malus Token: (ATK: 3000/DEF: 3000)

"Well it looks like Team Ragnarok's trickster just don't know when to put aside the jokes!" Melissa Trail announced.

Soon the Tops started cheering for Broder.

Dan grunted. 'Not only that when his turn ends Loki will return... Luckily I have this...'

Taking Dimension Wall he said, "I set a card, and end it there."

"When means Loki ability activates!" Broder called. "Since you destroyed by banishing a Nordic Alfar Tuner monster from the graveyard, he revives during the end phase!"

At that Loki emerged back beside the Malus Token.

"And I can add a trap from my graveyard to my hand." Broder said as he shows the card. "And what better card then the Golden Apples?"

Dan: 2000

Broder: 4000

Broder 2nd Turn:

"My move draw!" Broder grinned drawing before saying, "Alright Malus Token attack Hot Red Dragon Archfiend!"

The token fired a blast as Hot Red Dragon Archfiend fired a blast back before they destroyed each other as the two duelists were pushed a bit by the force.

"And that means it's over! Loki attack him directly with Vanity Bullet!" Broder grinned as Loki charged his fingers as he aimed.

"Not so fast Broder I play the trap, Dimension Wall!" Dan called.

Dimension Wall

Normal Trap Card

Activate only when an opponent's monster declares an attack. Instead of you, your opponent takes the Battle Damage you would have taken from this battle.

"Dimension what?" Broder asked confused.

"This trap card is really handy because with it I can bounce back the damage you tried to do!" Dan called.

"You what!?" Broder asked shocked.

"Then that means Broder would be the one in a corner!" Yuya grinned.

"And Dan will be able to finish him!" Riley cheered.

Suddenly Loki's eyes begun glowing red as Broder grinned, "Sorry but I'm afraid that won't work. You see Loki has a Special Ability of his own. Whenever you play a trap card when he attacks I can cancel that trap out, and destroy it!"

Shocked the Lancers, and Dan watched as Loki destroyed Dimension Wall.

"Then that mean-" Dan stopped himself.

"It means you lost! Loki finish him!" Broder called as Loki fired a dark bullet as Dan cried out before getting hit screaming flying off his Duel Board.

Dan: 0000

Broder: 4000

Broder wins the duel!

"DAN!" Riley cried in horror as her boyfriend was launched to the air.

Well that was a one-sided victory for Broder. Dan in turn was outclassed by him in ways you can imagine, and by this the Friendship Cup can begin, and we can know what the rules are along with the new ones the original never had. What could they be? Find out next chapter! Be sure to review!
