Ulrich362: Well things are getting interesting wouldn't you agree?
bopdog111: We're back to Cass' adventures.
Ulrich362: True, and there's a lot going on now.
bopdog111: Where did Cass, and the others go too.
Ulrich362: Hopefully Skip can find out from Declan. Enjoy the chapter?
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!
Cassie, Yugo, and Yuto had been taken to a small house with their saviors.
"Oh we haven't got your names." Cassie told them.
The orange haired man smiled. "I'm Crow."
"I'm Cassie Sakaki." Cassie told him.
"Nice to meet you Cassie." Crow smiled. "So why are you and twin brothers wandering around?"
"Oh Yugo, and Yuto aren't my brothers. But have you seen Riley Akaba?" Cassie asked him.
"Riley Akaba? No I haven't. Is that a friend of yours?" Crow inquired.
"My girlfriend." Cassie answered.
"Oh yeah, you mentioned that." Crow recalled. "Maybe I can help?"
"Yes please." Cassie answered.
"What does she look like?" Crow asked.
"She has a hoodie on, and wears a blue, and yellow striped shirt." Cassie answered.
"We'll look for her, hopefully Security didn't find her." Crow mentioned. "Then again... with all the preparations for that I doubt they're looking that hard."
"Preparations?" Yuto asked.
"For the Friendship Cup." Crow answered. "A huge dueling tournament."
"Friendship Cup..." Cassie trailed off.
"Is something wrong?" Crow asked her.
"Maybe we can find her there." Cassie suggested.
"Maybe." Yuto nodded.
"And you two?" Yugo asked turning to the other two.
"Shinji." one of them answered.
"And you?" Yuto asked.
"My name's Damon." he said calmly.
"Thanks for that back there." Cassie said to them grateful.
"No problem." Crow smiled.
"I hope Riley is okay." Cassie admitted before seeing a poster of Jack, "Who's that?"
"That, is Jack Atlas." Crow answered. "He's currently the reigning Turbo Duel Champion and if you win the Friendship Cup you get a chance to duel him."
"He used to be one of us before the fame went to his head." Shinji stated angrily.
"One of you, fame?" Cassie asked confused, "Is this where the rich rule?"
"That's right, we commons are oppressed constantly by the Tops as they hide behind Sector Security. The only opportunity we'll have to make a change is for us to enter and rally the Commons to destroy the Tops." Shinji told her.
"That sounds..." Cassie trailed off widening her eyes.
"The right thing?" Shinji guessed.
"The wrong way!" Cassie answered.
"She's right." Yugo said suddenly.
Hearing that they looked over.
"What will a revolution do except cause people to suffer?" Yugo asked. "I don't like it anymore than you do but if you want to change things there are better options."
"Yes. There is no reason to use conflict to change things." Cassie agreed.
"They have a point Shinji." Crow agreed.
Suddenly Cassie's Duel Disk started beeping.
"Huh?" She looked to see.
"Cass... we can't stay here. I was nearly arrested but this man named Jack helped me. Except we can't wait for a tournament... we need to help Yuya."
The message was from Riley.
"Riri just messaged." Cassie said looking worried.
"She did, where is she?" Yuto asked her.
"Where are you?" Cassie messaged.
Riley replied a few seconds later. "Jack's house, where are you?"
"In a house in what is described as the Commons Area in a house owned by a man named Crow." Cassie answered.
There was a long pause before Riley replied again.
"Miss Sakaki I presume? Your friend is currently being escorted by my officers, I suggest you come to my office. My name is Jean-Michel Roget."
"Huh?" Cassie asked reading that.
Yugo looked as his eyes widened. "Roget! He's in charge of Sector Security!"
"If that's where Riley is we have to get there." Cassie said to them.
"Are you insane?" Shinji questioned.
"Me, Rilet, Yugo, and Yuto are on a important mission." Cassie told him, "We need to stay together to save my brother."
"Save your brother?" Crow asked. "What do you mean?"
"I don't know but it's something relating to a amnesia he has." Cassie answered before it explaining it to them.
"Amnesia after he duels and he's in the hospital now?" Crow asked in shock. "Well I don't know if we'll be able to do much but we can try and help."
"Thank you." Cassie said with a smile before saying, "I'll go somewhere to where Security can't find you three while we head to Riley."
"Right." Crow nodded.
With that they walked out leaving the three. Soon they arrived at a dock, and Cassie said to Roget, "Where is your office?"
"Come with me." Roget told her calmly.
Meanwhile...

"Blaze Falcon can attack you directly!"
"Huh?" Zuzu asked in shock running for an Action Card.
Shay just watched her seconds before she was hit by Blaze Falcon. Zuzu cried out. (Zuzu: 3000)
"Now when Blaze Falcon deals battle damage one of your monsters is destroyed, and I'll destroy that Bloom Prima." Shay told her.
She cried out shattering.
"Since she's sent when Fusion Summoned, I can add Shopina from my graveyard!" Zuzu said showing the card.
"I set two cards and end my turn." Shay told her coldly.

Pot of Greed
Normal Spell Card

She drew before looking, and remembered back.
Flashback...
"Zuzu?" Cassie asked her the day before she left.
"Yeah Cass?" Zuzu asked curiously.
"Well... After Iggy, I worry about what left. Here." Cassie said handing her an Xyz Monster, "Riley said this monster is real special from the Xyz Dimension that came here. LID doesn't know why, and Riley told me maybe I can use it. But I think it's more fitting you can have it. Besides I know you can handle anything it can do."
Zuzu's eyes widened slightly before looking at the card.
Number 76: Harmonizer Gradielle
"Riley gave me a warning about this." Cassie said before allowing Zuzu to take it, "When someone uses it they suddenly have it's symbol on them, and acts different. But I know you can control it."
Zuzu looked unsure but nodded. "Thanks Cassie."
Cassie nodded with a smile.
Flashback End...
'Maybe... By summoning that card, I can show him I'm not in league with the Fusion Dimension.' Zuzu thought before saying, "I activate Melodic Concert!"

"With it I sacrifice Bloom Diva!" Zuzu called as her Fusion Monster vanished. Shay's eyes widened.
"Wait, what's she doing?" Tate questioned.
"Then I summon Shopina from my hand, and Bloom Prima from my graveyard!" Zuzu called as the two appeared, "Them thanks to Shopina's ability I add Serenade back to my hand."
"What are you doing?" Shay questioned.
"Notice anything with them?" Zuzu asked him.
"What are you..." Shay started before his eyes widened in disbelief.
"You got it! I overlay Level 7 Shopina, and Bloom Prima!" Zuzu called as to her call the two monsters turned gold entering the Overlay Network.
"With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network!" Zuzu called as the portal exploded, "I Xyz Summon! Number 76: Harmonizer Gradielle!"
At that a sealed blue monster appeared before un-forming to show an angel having a piano sword hybrid for a weapon with white pants, blue long hair along with a robe, yellow wings, and a bright blue 76 on it's cloak ready.

You can only use this effect of "Number 76: Harmonizer Gradielle" once per turn.
(ORU: 2)
The moment she summoned the monster a 76 appeared on Zuzu's shoulder and she suddenly cried out in pain. Zuzu grunted as she felt something trying to take over her.
'Let the Number take hold.' a voice said to her mind as she cried out.
"Ah what's going on!?" Nico cried seeing a gold aura around Zuzu going in Harmonizer Gradielle.
Shay's expression darkened before he frowned. 'She can't control it.'
'T-This must be what Cassie meant...!' Zuzu thought feeling the mind in her, ''When someone uses it they suddenly have it's symbol on them, and acts different.' But she knows I can control it... And I will! I promise!'
'It is pointless to resist... Why can't you see that I can make your life easier?' a shadow of Harmonizer Gradielle asked her.
"Why should I let you do it?" Zuzu asked grunting.
'I can make your life most pleasant... And by that I can make sure your troubles are not in your way.' Harmonizer Gradielle told her.
Zuzu grunted, "Nice try bub... But their are things you can't get rid of... So... I WON'T LET YOU CONTROL ME!"
At that Harmonizer Gradielle cried out as it dissolved from Zuzu's defiance as she gasped before kneeling when the 76 faded her shoulder breathing.
"What... how did you?" Shay questioned before just staring at Zuzu. 'There's no way... that's impossible!'
Zuzu breathed before raising up sighing in relief, "Alright that's over..."
She looked up at her new Xyz before saying, "I know we just met but... I can tell we will form a tough bond!"
Harmonizer Gradielle turned to her as she smiled before saying, "Okay Harmonizer Gradielle attack Blaze Falcon! With Melodic Slash!"
At that Harmonizer Gradielle charged swinging his piano sword as it let out a melodic tempo. Shay braced himself as the attack hit.
(Shay: 2300)
"I activate my facedown card, Rank-Up-Magic Doom Double Force!" Shay called.
Rank-Up-Magic Doom Double Force

(This Special Summon is treated as an Xyz Summon.)
"This card revives the monster you just destroyed and then I can summon a monster with twice its rank!"
"Twice the rank?" Zuzu asked not expecting that.
Blaze Falcon appeared and entered the Overlay Network
"Supreme falcon. Carry on the wishes of your fallen friends, and fly off to the sky of victory! Rank Up Xyz Change! Appear, Rank 10! Raidraptor - Ultimate Falcon!" Shay chanted as a more powerful monster appeared.

● Once per turn, during the End Phase: You can make all monsters your opponent controls lose 1000 ATK. If your opponent controls no face-up monsters, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent.
(ORU: 1)
Zuzu looked shocked before saying, "Okay, I activate Harmonizer Gradielle's ability! I use an Overlay Unit for him to absorb a monster in your graveyard as an Overlay Unit! Melodic Siren!"
An Overlay Unit was absorbed in his Piano Sword as he played a tune on it which awed the girls in the audience by how well he plays. (ORU: 2 - 1)
"What are you planning to do with that?" Shay questioned.
"You'll see." Zuzu said as Vanishing Lanius flew from Shay's graveyard to Harmonizer Gradielle turning into a replacement Overlay Unit. (ORU: 1 - 2) "I end my turn with a face-down."
Shay 2nd Turn:
Shay drew his card. "Ultimate Falcon's ability activates, by using one Overlay Unit all your monsters lose 1000 attack points."
(ORU: 1 - 0)
Ultimate Falcon shined on Harmonizer Gradielle. (ATK: 2700 - 1000 = 1700)
"Now Ultimate Falcon attack Harmonizer Gradielle!" Shay called.
"Huh?" Zuzu asked. 'Why didn't it work?'
Ultimate Falcon charged striking Harmonizer Gradielle as she cried out. (Zuzu: 1200)
"Your monster is immune to effects that destroy it, but not effects that don't destroy your monster." Shay told her. "I end my turn."
'Oh... I misread it's effect.' Zuzu thought before they all see her Xyz Monster survived the attack.
Shay frowned. 'I'll just end this on my next turn.'
Zuzu: 1200
Shay: 2300
Zuzu 3rd Turn:
"Okay I draw!" Zuzu called drawing looking, "And I'll start by summoning Serenade!"
Serenade appeared.
"Now Serenade attack!" Zuzu called as Serenade charged at Ultimate Falcon.
"What?" Shay questioned.
"And I activate Score the Melodious Diva's ability in my hand! When a Melodious battles this card lowers the monster it's fighting to zero!" Zuzu called, 'And once that happens, I can attack with Harmonizer, and win the duel!'
"Ultimate Falcon is unaffected by the effects of other cards." Shay countered.
'Wait what?' Zuzu thought in shock as Ultimate Falcon fired a blast to counter.
'It's over.' Shay thought calmly.
The attack struck before...
Zuzu: 1200
Shay: 0000
Zuzu wins the duel!
"What in the world?" Nico Smiley questioned. "What did we miss?"
"Melodic Backstage." Zuzu said showing a trap.
Melodic Backstage
Normal Trap Card
While you control a Monster Card that is the same type as a face-up monster on your opponent's field: You can activate this card from your Hand. During battle between a "Melodious" monster, and a face-up monster your opponent controls: Your opponent takes any battle damage you take involving that battle.
"What, but neither of your monsters are Winged-Beasts." Shay pointed out.
"True but it isn't Monster Type. It's monster card type. Both Harmonizer, and Ultimate Falcon are Xyz Monsters." Zuzu explained.
Shay's eyes widened. 'That card... and she uses Fusion Summoning...'
Meanwhile...
Skip was looking into things.
"They have to be around here somewhere, I know Declan at least would be watching the only question is where is he watching from?" Skip asked himself as he ran to try and find Declan and Henrietta.
A door opened as Declan talking to Claude exited about business.
"There you are Declan, we need to talk right now." Skip told him.
Hearing that the two looked over.
"Mr. Boyle." Declan said calmly, "What brings you here to LID?"
"You sent Riley and Cassie away to some other Dimension, and you're going to tell me where they are." Skip told him.
"But you are mistaken. I didn't send them anywhere." Declan told him, "Riley did that."
"Even if that's the case, you must know where they went and how to reach them." Skip argued.
"We're looking into it but we got no leads." Declan told him, "Riley took 4 Dimensionizers for the Lancers, and used them for her, Cassie, and two other people. They might've gone by themselves for Yuya's sake, and we're trying to find where they went too."
"So in other words you have absolutely no clue where they are or how to reach them." Skip glared at him.
"That sums it up. But trust me that we're looking into where they are, and we can follow them." Declan told him, "Claude was just telling me something he found involving it."
"And?" Skip asked turning to Claude.
"We had founded out it's in the Dimension the Fusion Dimension hasn't invaded yet. The Synchro Dimension." Claude answered.
"The Synchro Dimension... right." hearing that Skip ran off.
They watched on at this.
Ulrich362: Well... that was interesting.
bopdog111: I bet it is.
Ulrich362: Well, what's next?
bopdog111: Cass, and Riley getting back together?
Ulrich362: Makes sense to me. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
