Riley woke up a week later to see Cassie was sleeping on the fake stomach on her. Riley smiled and gently wrapped her arms around Cassie. Cassie smiled snuggling closer.
"I love you Cassie." Riley whispered while gently kissing her nose.
That made Cassie started to stir. Riley giggled and pulled Cassie closer. "Nope, go back to sleep."
"Hm... huhhhh..." Cassie stirred before closing her eyes back to sleep.
Riley smiled at that and very gently rubbed Cassie's head. Cassie smiled gently before sleepily pulled Riley close to her. Suddenly someone knocked at the door. That made Cassie woke with a start, "H-Huh?"
"Cassie, Riley? Are you two awake?" Yoko asked.
"Yeah Ms. Sakaki!" Riley called.
"Ok, do you want anything special for breakfast before the tournament?" Yoko asked.
"Toast." Riley answered with a smile, "And Cass wants Waffles."
"Sure thing." Yoko smiled before walking downstairs.
"R-Riri?" Cassie asked sitting up.
"Morning." Riley smiled.
Cassie soon noticed how close Riley she was holding her before grinning, "This is like yesterday wasn't it?"
Riley smiled. "Yeah, it is."
Flashback...
Cassie slowly stirred. She felt someone holding her but the grip got tighter as she stirred. Blinking she looked to see Riley was sleeping holding her deep. Riley shuddered slightly in her sleep before holding Cassie tighter and smiling. Cassie smiled before giggling rubbing Riley's head.
"Cassie... I love you." Riley said in her sleep.
Cassie giggled before kissing Riley passionately, "Love ya two Riri."
That made Riley wake up.
"Cassie?" Riley asked before letting go and rubbing her eyes before pausing. "My mouth feels funny."
"Why?" Cassie grinned.
Riley looked at Cassie before her eyes widened and she looked down pouting. Cassie giggled hugging her, "You were holding onto me real tight."
Riley smiled hugging her back. "Can you blame me?"
"Nope." Cassie giggled.
Riley smiled before kissing her back.
Flashback End...
Cassie giggled with a grin hugging her. Riley smiled at that. They soon walked down after dressing for breakfast.
"Morning you two." Yuya smiled.
"Morning." they smiled as they noticed Sora with them.
"It's hard to believe you can't compete Yuya." Sora mentioned.
"It's fine. There's always next time." Yuya admitted.
"That's true." Riley nodded before smiling. "And thank you very much for breakfast Mrs. Sakaki."
"It's my pleasure." Yoko smiled.
Riley suddenly paused. "Cassie, I have an idea."
Hearing that Cassie turned to her.
"Whoever wins between us in the Arc-League Championship... will be the first one to grow a real baby when we're bigger ok?" Riley asked.
Cassie blushed before grinning, "Okay that's a bet."
Riley giggled at that. Cassie kissed her.
"Well, after you guys eat we can head over." Sora smiled.
They nodded as they started to eat breakfast, and after it Cassie helped change out of the bandages as Riley smiled only to pause. "I'll see you guys at the stadium."
With that she ran out of the house. Cassie blinked seeing that.
"Riley's a student of LID, not You Show." Sora pointed out. "She's probably going to head over with them."
"Oh." Cassie said now getting it nodding.
"Come on, everybody is probably waiting Cass." Yuya smiled.
She nodded smiling before hugging Yoko. Yoko hugged her. "I'm rooting for you Cassie."
"Thanks Momma." Cassie smiled before walking off.
At You Show they saw Zuzu, Skip, Allie, Tate, and Frederick.
"Hi guys!" Yuya called to them.
"Hi Yuya." Zuzu smiled. "Are you alright?"
"I'm okay." Yuya smiled.
"Is everybody ready?" Skip asked.
"Yes sir." Cassie said bowing.
"Alright, then let's go and show everyone what the You Show Duel School can do!" Skip declared confidently.
With that they entered the bus riding off to the arena.
"Yeah." Cassie smiled to her.
Later...
They arrived waiting for the ceremonies to start as Cassie was looking over her deck. Yuya smiled before going to sit with his mom and Skip. Just then Yuya noticed a big boy walking behind Cassie, and recognized him.
"Cassie behind you!" Yuya called.
Hearing that Cassie looked, and widen her eyes, "G-Grizzlepike?"
"If it isn't Yusho's little shrimp." Grizzlepike smirked, "And I hope your not here to cower away, just like your wimpy old man once did."
"What?" Cassie asked at that before he knelled roughly poking her forehead.
"I still can't figure out how the son of a despicable coward beat Sledgehammer." Grizzlepike sneered as she rubbed her forehead before taking her shoulder, "No Sakaki is worthy of dueling in this stadium. Now, how's about I show you and your lousy cards where the exit is?"
"Take your hands off her." stated a male voice.
Hearing that they looked over. Gong was glaring at Grizzlepike.
"Huh Gong. Defending spineless cowards now?" Grizzlepike smirked, "Ah whatever she isn't worth my time."
With that he walked off as Cassie sighed turning to Gong, "Thanks Gong. I owe ya."
"I'm just glad you're ok." Gong told her. "And good luck."
"You too." Cassie smiled giving a handshake to him.
He smiled shaking her hand.
At the Arena...
"Greetings to all my fellow dueling fanatics both near and far. The day we've been yearing for has arrived as we flip the "on" switch for this year's ARC League Championship. My name's Nico Smiley and I'm thrilled to be your ceremony host from coast to coast. So let the ARC League Championship begin!" Nico announced to them, "And now let's kick off the ARC League Championship! Our daring duelists will march in by school. Take it away, Joy."
"Thanks, Nico. First off the Leo Institute of Dueling. Last year, Leo dominated the championships by winning all three divisions. With the largest contingent if duelists in this year's championship, they're a hands-down favorite to make another trophy sweet." Joy announced as You Show could see that Kit, Dipper, Julia, and Sylvio were among the Leo Students along with a purple robed black haired man.
Zuzu gasped seeing him.
"Zuzu?" Allie asked seeing that.
"That guy... he was dueling Julia and the others before." Zuzu mentioned.
They turned to the man hearing that.
"Our second group is determined to chop it's way to victory. It's the Bandit Warrior Academy, the most powerful proponents of martial arts style dueling. Their best student, Iggy Arlo, finished second in the Junior League last year and is now out for revenge." Joy announced as Bandit Warrior Academy students with Iggy at the front walking to the field, "And stepping up next, a team from far across the sea, the Mysterious Knights of the Duel Disk. Behind them, we have another hometown team and I'm sure they're ready to take down the competition!"
As Bandit Warrior Academy walked up Cassie noticed Riley shudder slightly. Cassie frowned several minutes went by before they walked forward, "Walking into the spotlight now are students from that small training facility for Dueltainers, the You Show School!"
They walked in the arena as they hear the crowd cheering them on.
"This is so exciting." Allie whispered.
"Also really nerve-racking." Cassie admitted.
"It'll be ok." Zuzu reassured her.
Cassie nodded taking her hand.
"It looks like they're about to announce the first duel." Tate mentioned.
Nico announced, "Now it is time for our duelists to learn who they will be facing in their first matches. Okay, wannabe champions, time to slot your competition datacards into your Duel Disks."
Cassie inserted her card in as it randomized. Allie's eyes widened. "Cassie?"
Hearing that Cassie looked over before hearing a ding seeing she's against Allie.
"Let's have fun." Allie smiled.
Cassie smiled hugging her. Allie hugged her back. The rest of their friends had their opponents selected afterwards. Soon Cassie smiled, "I will go on for Yuya."
"He's definitely proud of you." Zuzu smiled.
Cassie smiled before looking around finding Riley, and walked to her. Even from a distance she could see Riley trembling. Cassie walked before hugging her. Riley froze at that as Cassie realized she was staring at the Bandit Warrior Academy.
"Cassie..." Riley whispered before nodding. "Ok..."
Cassie softly kissed her girlfriend.
"It's time for the first match." Riley mentioned.
Cassie nodded hearing that.
Later...
Tate had managed to beat his opponent.
"Awesome job Tate!" Allie smiled.
Tate gave a wave to her with a smile. Allie smiled before turning to Cassie. "Our turn."
Cassie nodded with a smile walking down with her.
"And now for round two of the Youth Division is two You Show Duelists! First is the only daughter of Yusho Sakaki, Cassie Sakaki!" Nico called to the audience only for them to start ridiculing her as she flinched.
Allie frowned hearing that. 'Cassie...' "Mr. Smiley?"
"Hm?" Nico asked turning to her.
"I... want to forfeit." Allie said sadly. "Cassie shouldn't be yelled at like that."
"Allie... Don't forfeit." Cassie told her.
"Huh?" Allie asked in shock hearing that. "Are you sure?"
Cassie nodded with a smile. Allie looked uncertain before smiling. "Well... ok."
With that both girls got ready.
"Alright let us activate the Action Field: Atlantica!" Nico called snapping his fingers as they appeared in a Underwater Mermaid Kingdom.
Atlantica
Action Field Spell

"DUEL!" Allie and Cassie called together.
(Dueling Theme: Anthem of the Lonely by Nine Lashes)
Cassie: 4000
Allie: 4000
Let the duel begin!
Cassie 1st Turn:
"Okay draw!" Cassie called drawing, "And to start off, I summon Skylander - Grill Grunt!"
At that a blue scaled fish holding a harpoon gun appeared, "Fish the Fish!"

Allie grinned seeing the monster before looking around and running to find an Action Card. Cassie looked also setting a card, "I place a face-down, and end this turn."
Allie 1st Turn:
"Ok, I summon Aquaactress Guppy in attack mode." Allie started.

"Then I'l use Guppy's effect to summon Aquaactress Tetra."
Aquaactress Tetra
Water Type
Level 1
Aqua
ATK: 300
DEF: 300
Once per turn: You can add 1 "Aquarium" card from your Deck to your hand.
The two fishes bubbled around.
"Now Tetra adds an Aquarium card to my hand and I'll play three." Allie smiled. "Aquarium Lighting, Aquarium Set, and Aquarium Stage."
Aquarium Lighting
Continuous Spell Card
If an "Aquaactress" monster you control battles an opponent's monster, during damage calculation: Your battling monster's ATK and DEF each become double its current ATK and DEF during that damage calculation only.

You can only control 1 "Aquarium Lighting".
Aquarium Set

Tetra: (ATK: 300 + (300 *2) = 900)
"Set gives your monsters 300 but for Aquaactresses that's doubled. Stage defends monsters from battle by a non-Water monster, and for Aquactresses that also applies to monster effects, and then Lighting doubles the points of Aquaactresses when it battles a monster. Is that right?" Cassie asked remembering the three cards.
"Yup." Allie nodded grabbing a card. "Aquaactess Tetra attack."
Tetra charged firing a bubble blast. (ATK: 900 x 2 = 1800)
The attack destroyed Gill Grunt. (Cassie: 3500)

"Ok, then I'll attack him with Aquaactress Guppy."
Guppy attacked Hot Dog. (ATK: 1200 x 2 = 2400)
The attack destroyed Hot Dog as Cassie grabbed an Action Card.
Allie braced herself as flames hit her.
(Allie: 3500)
"I end my turn."
"Hot Dog deals 500 points when sent to the graveyard." Tate remembered.
"That's true, and with Portal of Power in her hand Cassie's in a strong position. Then again, I don't remember if she has any water Ritual Monsters." Zuzu admitted.

Allie: 3500

"It allows me to pick a monster on your field, and then I can add a Skylander that has the same attribute as that card." Cassie grinned.

"Cassie, what are you planning?" Allie asked nervously.
"This of course!" Cassie smiled as Gill Grunt turned to 3 rings while Pop Fizz turned to 4 stars.
(LV: 3 + 4 = 7)

Cassie walked as Atlantica vanished for Cassie to offer a hand. Allie took it. "You win Cassie."
"GG." Cassie smiled helping her up.
Allie smiled before hugging her. "Good luck in the rest of the tournament."
"Thanks." Cassie smiled hugging her back.
"Who's next?" Allie asked her.
"Let's see." Cassie asked walking off with her.
