bopdog111: Okay everyone now onto a personal episode of mine.
Ulrich362: Oh, a personal episode of yours? That sounds interesting.
bopdog111: Where we get to see probably my second most favorite of the Barian Emperors.
Ulrich362: Interesting, let's see what happens here. Enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL but we own the OCs!
Right now in Barian World were the four cloaked figures staring as they see the defeats of some of the people that Girag had taken over. Fender defeated by Yuma, Devon defeated by Timmy, Carlyle defeated by Tori, Stanley defeated by Shark, and recently Lotus defeated by Rio, and around those five attempts only one has been interfered by Timmy as Girag managed to make ways to keep him from getting involved after the second attempt but even then the people he blessed with Barian's Force were all defeated.
This understandably frustrates Dumon from the lack of progress on Girag's mission. "I sent Girag to the human world to take the Numbers without Timmy stepping in starting with Yuma. But right now clearly the task seems to be too much for him."
"Perhaps it's time I handle things personally... I can defeat Yuma Tsukumo, Timothy, and anyone else who opposes me." mentioned the yellow cloaked figure. "The power of my dragon will ensure victory."
"Hold on, I think it's time I step into the ring." the red cloaked figure mentioned.
"You are certain, your ready for it Alito?" Dumon asked turning over to him.
"Of course." Alito answered. "I'll KO all of them."
Hearing that Dumon nodded. "Very well, however I have an additional task for you to perform."
"Of course, what other task?" Alito asked him.
"Find and bring back our little escapist... and bring her back to Barian World." Dumon told him.
"Right." Alito turned vanishing in a portal.
The yellow cloaked figure turned to Dumon. "Are you sure sending Alito is the right course of action Dumon? He's far too impulsive, and cares about himself."
"Mizar, I know what I'm doing. We need an expert Duelist, and Alito is one of our best." Dumon explained over to him. "His competitive nature will give us an edge against the humans."
"I hope you're right about this." Mizar noted.
"Don't worry, the Numbers and the girl will be ours soon enough." Dumon told him calmly.
Meanwhile in the human world...
Girag was sitting by himself in a dark room watching an idol on TV.
He is taking a short break right now sparking some entertainment by himself from all his failures noting that Dumon will send someone to help him out. It wasn't his fault, his pawns that he given Barian's Force too were all weak. Or that the people that dueled them are powerful. He never heard of Tori dueling, never seen Rio dueled, or anything like that but they beaten them. Well now he needs to focus again after he's done with his break.
"~~Our light will never have to dim again...~~"
"Oh so she's the singer that people are talking about." Girag looked lovestruck unaware of something materializing behind him. "Singer Scarlett Scarlight... What a voice, and sweet music. She's really good."
"I didn't know your a music guy, Girag." a calm, and collected voice spoke behind him making him freeze as he turned over seeing a tanned boy wearing the Heartland Boy school uniform with brown hair was behind him grinning with hands in his pockets. "Then again, you always were lazy when it comes to getting things done."
Girag angrily stood up to tower over the mysterious boy. "Who are you?"
"What you don't recognize me?" the tanned boy asked only to look at his hands and blink before noticing his reflection. "I forgot we never met in this form before."
"You asked for it kid, and you're gonna get it!" Girag cried as he threw a punch only for the tanned boy to smirk and throw his own punch which diverted Girag's and stopped just short of his face with a confident grin. "A human can't match my moves like that..." The big guy was surprised from this, and only knows one person who can do something like that. "Alito!" That made the boy grinned harder.
"Good to see you again Girag." Alito greeted with his grin. After turning on the lights, and having a chance to sit down to chat with each other Alito went straight to business. "And I mean it before, your real sloppy when it comes to important tasks such as this. Right now, your watching some idol while snacking when you should be planning."
"I was taking a break..." Girag weakly defended himself.
"Well now your gonna have to cut it short, Dumon warned you he'll send someone if you didn't bring the bacon, and he followed through by sending me." Alito chastised him at this while holding a toothpick holding some fruit. "Your taking things much too easy which is why things aren't progressing, and I'm here to get the mission back on track."
Hearing that Girag flinched. "It isn't as easy as we thought, these humans are tougher than I expected."
"Cause of that Pendulum kid that beaten Vector? I'll admit he be trouble but he hardly gotten involved in your attempts."
"Look it ain't gonna be successful. I taken a Pro Duelist, someone with comics, and even someone who can force things there way, and there STILL beaten." Girag pointed out to him. "Whatever plan you come up with will not be anymore successful then any of mine."
"They will because all my focus will stick on dueling while you resort to trickery." Alito stated over confidently. "I'll not get so easily distracted, and succeed where you failed."
Girag glared over towards him at this blinking. This is Alito one of the best fighters/Duelists he ever known. He's weaker as he's human now but he knows that Alito will be a powerful enemy to the humans. Sure Alito is a bit too hot-headed but if Dumon sent him, then this should be better as Alito is quite competitive.
Later...
Alito is walking by himself eating the fruit snack. "Okay so how am I suppose to start? I can't do much as I'm stuck in this human form... Well I won't be able to duel to my full strength as of now." He ate the rest dropping it to the ground as the door beside him opened, and someone ran up colliding into him.
"Hey, watch out!" he yelled at the person he bumped into only for his eyes to widen seeing a girl with dark green hair that instantly attracted him.
"Oops, sorry." the girl, Tori, apologized before offering her hands. "Are you ok?"
Alito however looked at her in awe as he imagined her face in place of the sun.
"Am I... dreaming?" he asked himself as he stared at Tori in shock from her beauty while said girl looked confused.
Then at another location a while later Alito was looking down at a bar with spotlights on. "Girag?" Said guy was shown from a spotlight eating something sitting beside him. "Is 'love at first sight' real?"
Girag turned to him in confusion.
"Because I know it is." Alito sighed happily. "It just, happened to me."
Girag stared at him with wide eyes and a mouthful of food before doing a spit take.
"Girag, I don't know who that girl is but I'm going to win her heart." Alito grinned tapping the bar with a finger. "I'll use my classic counter strategy."
"Uh... this counter?" Girag asked not quite getting it.
The next day at Heartland Academy...
Tori was with her friends Summer, and Jen laughing together in fun before suddenly a lot of roses were brought in front of her vision surprising them as it was Alito in front of her holding the bouquet on one knee bowing.
"Oh, aren't you the guy, I bumped into yesterday?" Tori recalls Alito from her encounter yesterday.
"I want to say I'm sorry." Alito grinned over. 'The first step to the strategy is to turn up the heat by countering your first impressing by playing it cool.' While Tori tries to say it was her fault she bumped into him Alito proceeded to say his next line something shot from above them.
"Heads down, dudettes!" Surprised they turned where they all duked turning over seeing Bronk landed behind on a skateboard skating off. "Sorry, but it's worth beating him to class!"
"What was that?" Alito was quite surprised from that never experiencing something like it before shaking his head to focus turning back to Tori to say his line only for SOMEONE to land on top of him from a jump knocking the large bouquet of roses from his hands knocking Alito unconscious with swirled eyes.
"Aah, watch where you're going!" Tori yelled at Yuma.
"Ah, catch you later Tori." Yuma mentioned getting up. "Hey Bronk wait up, that was interference!"
"Hey wait for me!" Ray cried running after him as Astral flew behind them only to glance back at the boy Yuma landed on.
Later in the pool...
Everyone was settling in having fun over for pool period while Tori walked in wearing her one piece suit of white, and pink smiling only for a voice to call over. "Hey Tori!" Surprised she looked up seeing Alito at the top of the diving board jumping up wearing a pair of blue trunks. "How's it going!?" Tori cupped mouth chin shocked from this thinking he's gonna fall while Alito grinned. 'The second step is to catch her off guard using the unexpected. Use the scenario to your advantage.'
"Hey stop, your gonna fall!" Tori's warning came late as Alito purposefully slipped his feet which made Tori cover her face to not look.
'Now that I got her attention from the scare, I can catch her vulnerable as I say the line that's for sure gonna knock her on her heels.' Alito thought grinning as he splashed into the water thinking how the next part will go. How he would say he's distracted by her beauty that it threw him off. So once he surfaced he got ready to say it only to hear something.
"Double-dive go!" Startled he, and Tori looked up at Yuma, and Ray on the diving board identical trunks with Ray trapped in a one arm headlock clearly scared. "Let's go!" He jumped off with Ray close to him with Alito unfortunately in there path which they splashed on him. Underwater Yuma was laughing as Alito was knocked out with swirling eyes again as Ray looked to have been knocked out cold.
Later Tori was walking by herself only for Alito to appear behind her.
"Excuse me, Tori?" he asked causing her to turn and see Alito with a feather. "I think you must have dropped this."
"Huh, that isn't mine." Tori admitted in confusion.
Alito closed his eyes preparing to give her the perfect compliment and win her over by comparing her to an angel only to notice Yuma had taken the feather and put it up his nose making him cry out in shock as Yuma sneezed much to Tori's frustration.
"Yuma, cover your mouth!" she snapped.
"Sorry." Yuma apologized to her before running off as Ray blinked running after him.
Tori ran off to snap at him more while Alito stared at the breezing feather clearly frustrated that his 'Counter' Strategy failed. All cause of that guy always butting in whenever he gets ready to break Tori's defenses, and win her heart. He needs some help against this type of rival cause he's great at dueling... romance on the other hand isn't something he had much experience with.
Back at the same bar Alito slammed down his glass in frustration over to Girag. "That kid keeps butting in Girag! Before I can make it work, he sabotages me every time! If I can get him out of the way, I can then manage to take that girl's heart for sure."
"He sounds like a rival, and if that's the case you only have one option Alito." Girag smirked. "Proof to her that you're better than this other guy by challenging him to a no-holds barred one-on-one duel. Show her you're a winner and she'll be all yours."
"You might have a point Girag." Alito noted.
"Exactly, your problem is solved." Girag mentioned putting some food in front of Alito. "Now fuel up for the match."
Alito looked in front of him seeing Girag placed a bowl of Katsudon which Alito focused taking a breath. "Right, I will duel that guy, and win!" He takes the bowl eagerly chowing down onto it.
Meanwhile at Arclight Manor...
"It looks like things are proceeding on schedule." Chris spoke to everyone including his old student Kite, Hart, and Dr. Faker who are with his brothers, father, Timmy, Anna, and her family in a large room about the device they will use to travel to Timmy's home dimension. "By my estimates we should be able to have a functioning portal in about 2 weeks."
"Two weeks..." Timmy whispered only to shudder slightly.
"How long was it since you came here?" Kite asked him.
"Probably... half a year at this point." the young boy admitted over rubbing his head. "I only hope I can manage to pay my respects to Grandma's grave."
"You definitely deserve it after the kind of life you went through with your parents." Michael assured him softly. "And you have all of us with you, so they won't take you back even if they try."
Timmy nodded though everyone noticed him shudder at the thought of his parents finding him again.
"Don't worry." Kite mentioned putting a hand on his shoulder. "Nothing's going to happen, we'll all be there to make sure of that Timmy."
"He's right." Anna agreed. "You're safe."
Timmy blushed a bit but smiled. "Thanks, that really means a lot."
"No prob." Allen grinned over to him. "We will make sure they won't touch you. Probably use Anna's Gustav Max to get the message clear."
"Allen, I'm not using my monsters to bully others." Anna frowned over before then shrugging. "But I can use my rocket if they try."
"You know speaking of monsters." Thomas spoken up looking at Anna. "I heard that Number you have had taken out Dyson Sphere without stopping it's abilities."
"Never realized monsters being unaffected to effects would also prevent negating attacks from taking effect." Michael admitted before standing up to her. "But Anna, I have a request to ask."
"Huh, what is it?" she inquired curiously.
"Would you mind dueling me?" Michael asked which made most of them blink which he lowered his head explaining. "Admittedly I'm the weakest out of my brothers. Even with the power Vetrix given me, and managing to almost succeed in defeating Yuma with Astral, they still turned it around. And now I'm just sitting here instead of getting better against the Barians." He looked over to her. "So if it's okay with you, I like to duel you to be ready when they make there move."
Anna's eyes widened hearing that before she smiled. "Ok, that sounds good to me."
They stood up before Chris brought up. "You know this is a perfect opportunity." They turned to him confused as he stood up walking to Anna pulling out a card. "Anna, the Barians have the advantage onto us with a certain card of there's. But me, father, and Dr. Faker had been working on something to even the playing field." He hands it as she curiously takes it seeing a card with a golden emblem of the Arclight Family crests named Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force.
Rank-Up-Magic? Like what the Barians used?
Anna blinked taking the spell only to pause. "Shouldn't Michael use this instead of me?"
Timmy takes a look, and widen his eyes. "A Rank-Up-Magic card?"
"Yes." Chris starts to explain how they have the card. "We have been developing it so we can have an advantage against Barian's Force. We have yet to test it yet so this duel will be the perfect opportunity to use it."
"And I already have a copy of it myself." Michael spoken up for Anna's earlier question. "We haven't have a chance to test it yet but we needed some help of others to test it properly."
"Astral Force yes." Hart answered while said girl looked down. "So if the Barians have Barian's Force, and Astral World has Astral Force, then is that one..."
"Yes the card that the human world can use." Chris confirmed before looking at Anna. "I won't lie Anna, using Argent Chaos Force could have effects since you never bared one of our crests. It could cause severe pain or something when you use it but the need to test it is important so we can have an equal footing with Barian which is why this duel will help us see what kind of effects we can prepare ourselves for."
Anna looked at the card before nodding. "Ok, let's duel."
Michael nodded as they went outside to start as his Duel Disk folded together from a feather while a orange tattoo appeared on his left eye while Anna readies over as everyone readies there gazers.
"Augmented reality vision link established."
"Let's duel!"

Hand: 5
Field: Nothing
Let the duel commence!
"I'll be going first, that fine with you?" Michael asked her knowing it's common courtesy for ladies first but the Barians won't be so kind so he's emulating they will take the first turn against woman.
Anna looked at her hand and nodded. "Alright."
Michael 1st Turn:
"Okay to start..." Michael checks over before nodding figuring his strategy. "I summon Chronomaly Nebra Disk!" Placing the card what rose was a small gem like disk artifact.

Machine/Effect
ATK: 1800
DEF: 1500
When this card is Normal Summoned: You can add 1 "Chronomaly" card from your Deck to your hand, except "Chronomaly Nebra Disk". If this card is in the Graveyard and all monsters you control are "Chronomaly" monsters (min. 1): You can Special Summon this card in Defense Position. You cannot activate cards or effects during the turn you activate this effect, except "Chronomaly" cards and effects. You can only use 1 "Chronomaly Nebra Disk" effect per turn, and only once that turn.
"When this card is summoned, I take a Chronomaly card to my hand." Michael adds a card before taking taking another showing it. "Then I use Chronomaly Crystal Skull's effect in my hand! As I have Chronomaly monster on the field, I send this card from my hand to the graveyard to add another Chronomaly monster to my hand." He sends it adding a card showing a red golem adding it. "And I'm not done cause I use Chronomaly Technology!"
Chronomaly Technology

Target 1 "Chronomaly" monster in your Graveyard; banish it, then look at the top 2 cards of your Deck, add 1 of them to your hand, and send the other to the Graveyard. You can only activate 1 "Chronomaly Technology" per turn. You cannot Special Summon any monsters during the turn you activate this card, except "Chronomaly" monsters.
"By banishing Crystal Skull from the graveyard, I check my top two cards, and add 1 to my hand while sending the other to the graveyard." Pocketing Crystal Skull's card Michael checks his top two showing them as Chronomaly Esperanza Glyph, and Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force before adding the trap, and sending the Rank-Up-Magic to the graveyard.
"Huh, why did you send your Rank-Up-Magic card to the graveyard?" Anna asked him.
"You'll see soon." Michael grinned over. "For now as I used a Chronomaly Spell card, I can summon the Aztec Mask Golem, I just added!" Placing the card what rose was the red golem he had added earlier.

During your turn, if you have activated a "Chronomaly" Spell Card previously this turn, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only control 1 "Chronomaly Aztec Mask Golem".
"I can only control 1 copy of Aztec Mask Golem on my field." Michael laid the drawback since it's ability would be too much if he can summon three copies at once.
"Alright..." Anna nodded uncertainly.
"Now I overlay Aztec Mask Golem, and Nebra Disk!" Michael called as the two rose into the Overlay Network. "With these two Level 4 Chronomaly monsters I build the Overlay Network!"
"Show yourself, Number 36! Appear from this time period to bring forth the invincible barrier! Xyz Summon! Come out, Chronomaly Chateau Huyuk!"

You can Tribute 1 "Chronomaly" monster, then target 1 monster your opponent controls, whose current ATK is different from its original ATK; destroy that target.
(ORU: 2)
"A Number." Anna frowned seeing that.
"And in Defense Position. So Anna can't damage him if she doesn't use Super Dora." Kite sees knowing this is a part of Michael's strategy against Anna's very aggressive tactics which all by means is perfect at countering Anna's high ATK monsters if they can't destroy anything or damage Michael in battle.
"Battle maybe but effect is otherside." Dr. Faker softly reminded his son as he watches paying close attention to this match so they learn something.
"I place 1 card down. Your up." Michael sets a card finishing his turn.
Michael's Hand: 3/Field: Number 36: Chronomaly Chateau Huyuk (Defense Position/ORU: 2), One Set Card

"Well I'm still not done, since am Earth Machine was special summoned to my field I can bring out Heavy Freight Train Derricrane from my hand with its attack and defense points cut in half." Anna revealed.

"Both her ace, and Number at turn 1?" Thomas asked shocked.
Michael grinned over. "I appreciate your giving me no quarter. I'll follow your lead by activating Chronomaly Esperanza Glyph!" The trap he added from Technology's effect flipped showing a stone head, and a golden plant flying around a stone artifact.
Chronomaly Esperanza Glyph
Normal Trap Card
During the Main Phase: Target 1 Xyz Monster Card you control or in your GY; Special Summon 2 "Chronomaly" monsters that are 1 Level higher than that monster's Rank, from your hand, Deck, and/or GY, but negate their effects, then, immediately after this effect resolves, Xyz Summon 1 "Chronomaly" Xyz Monster using only those 2 monsters. You can only activate 1 "Chronomaly Esperanza Glyph" per turn.
"With this, I can take two monsters who's levels are 1 level higher then Chateau Huyuk's rank, and summon them with there abilities negated!" Michael shows two cards with a grin. "So I'll bring out Chronomaly Acambaro Figures, and Chromomaly Moai!" At that a stone dinosaur figure, and the stone head from the trap appeared.

"Then after that I can immediately Xyz Summon!" Michael finished.
"What?" Anna questioned in shock hearing that.
"So now I overlay Level 5 Acambaro Figures, and Moai!" Michael raised an arm as the two flew into the Overlay Network.
"Rain down from your ancient fortress! Ready the cannons to form the impenetrable defense! Xyz Summon! Emerge, Chronomaly Vimana!"
What rose behind him was a large golden brown stone like airship shaped like a palace with cannons around.

(ORU: 2)
"Now Michael has matched Anna with two Xyz one each a Number, and 1 that's not." Timmy said surprised as he sees this. "And both are in defense to further stop Anna's moves."
"No worries, Anna can barrel through those two." Allen grinned over.
"I detach one of Gustav Max's Overlay Units to deal 2000 points of damage!" Anna called.
Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max: (ORU: 2 - 1)
The cannon aimed over. Michael was ready for that. "In that case, I use Vimana's ability! I use two Overlay Units to negate that effect!" Vimana takes two units forming a barrier that Gustav Max blasted on.
Chronomaly Vimana: (ORU: 2 - 1 - 0)
"I use Super Dora's ability!" Anna countered. "I use one Overlay Unit to prevent Gustav Max by being affected by any other card this turn!" Super Dora takes a unit as something glowed on Gustav Max.
Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora: (ORU: 2 - 1)
Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max: (Unaffected to other card effects)
"Which means Vimana's effect won't work!"
The cannon blast pierced pass the barrier striking Michael who braced himself with a grunt. (Michael: 2000/Hand: 3) Michael still grinned over to her. "Maybe but you used up that effect now. You can't use it to stop my effects a second time this turn."
Anna frowned at that. "Well I can use Gustav Max as material to summon my strongest monster. I rebuild the Overlay Network with Gustav Max!"
Her monster flew up into the Overlay Network again.
"I Xyz Summon, Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe!"

During each Battle Phase, this card can make attacks on monsters up to the number of materials it has +1.
"Battle, Juggernaut Liebe attack Chronomaly Vimana!"
Juggernaught Liebe readied charging in. Michael was prepared for that. "I activate Chateau Huyuk's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, it turns the attack points of a monster on the field to 0 for the rest of the turn!" His number takes a unit.
Number 36: Chronomaly Chateau Huyuk: (ORU: 2 - 1)
"What, it can do that?" Timmy widen his eyes. "Anna!"
Chateau Huyuk's orb flew absorbing Juggernaught Liebe's power for it's own.
Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe: (ORU: 4000 - 4000 = 0)
Anna's eyes widened as Juggernaught Liebe fired a blast only for it to bounce off hitting her instead.
(Anna: 1400/Hand: 1)
"I can still destroy Huyuk with Super Dora!"
Super Dora aimed the blast over firing, and destroying Chateau Huyuk but as it was in defense Michael didn't took damage.
"If it can do that then makes sense she needed to take it out." Thomas said as he watches this. "Still she has Michael on the ropes now."
"Mayhaps but we still haven't seen the power of the card I given him is." Chris told him as he said that.
"I end my turn." Anna frowned as Juggernaut Liebe regained its power.
Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe: (ATK: 0 + 4000 = 4000)
Anna's Hand: 1/Field: Revolving Switchyard (Field Zone), Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora (Attack Position/ORU: 1), Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe (Attack Position/ORU: 2)

Michael 2nd Turn:
"Well, you certainly hit harder then I thought." Micheal grinned over to her. "But time to see what I can do now with Argent Chaos Force." That said he drew. "I draw!" He looked over before calling. "To start by activate the effect of Acambaro Figures in the graveyard! By paying 1000 points, I summon it from the graveyard at the condition it returns to the hand at the end of the turn!"
At that raising up was Acambaro Figures again.
(Michael: 1000/Hand: 4)
"And then as there is a Field Spell on the field, I can summon Chronomaly Tula Guardian from the hand!" Placing a card a large purple golem rose up.
(Attack Position)
Chronomaly Tula Guardian
EARTH
Level 5
Rock/Effect
ATK: 1800
DEF: 900
If there is a face-up Field Spell Card on the field, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only control 1 "Chronomaly Tula Guardian".
Anna frowned slightly seeing the two monsters.
"Next I sacrifice Vimana." Michael grinned as his Xyz vanished surprising them. "That way I can Tribute Summon, Chronomaly Sol Monolith!" Raising was a large tablet with a circle tablet that can spin.
(Attack Position)
Chronomaly Sol Monolith
EARTH
Level 6
Rock/Effect
ATK: 600
DEF: 600
Once per turn: You can target 1 "Chronomaly" monster you control; its Level becomes 6. You cannot Special Summon any monsters during the turn you activate this effect, except "Chronomaly" monsters.
"Here it comes." Thomas smirked.
"And now I activate Sol Monolith's ability to make Tula Guardian's level the same as Sol Monolith's!" Tula Guardian grew readying.
Chronomaly Tula Guardian: (LV: 5 + 1 = 6)
"And now I overlay Level 6 Tula Guardian, and Sol Monolith!" Michael raised his arm which the two flew up entering the Overlay Network.
"Descend from the ancient earth! Number 6! From the pressure of creation may you rise to bring ancient civilization to greatness! Xyz Summon! Emerge from the earth, Chronomaly Atlandis!"
Raising up was a large stone like monster having a volcano at it's right shoulder, a lone yellow eye on it's head, lava legs, a hole on it's abdomen, and on it's silver ring torso was a purple 6.
(Attack Position)
Number 6: Chronomaly Atlandis
LIGHT
Rank 6
Machine/Effect/Xyz
ATK: 2600
DEF: 3000
2 Level 6 monsters
Cannot be destroyed by battle, except with a "Number" monster. When this card is Xyz Summoned: You can target 1 "Number" monster in your Graveyard; equip that target to this card. This card gains ATK equal to half the ATK of that equipped monster. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then send the monster equipped by this effect to the Graveyard; halve your opponent's Life Points. You cannot conduct your Battle Phase the turn you activate this effect.
(ORU: 2)
"This is... Atlandis?" Timmy had seen this from what Astral shown him, and Anna during the party at the World Duel Carnival, and seeing it in person is really shocking to him. It's bigger then he remembered from the vision.
Anna stared at the monster in shock.
"Don't stare for too long. Cause, I activate the effect of Argent Chaos Force in the graveyard!" Michael told her swinging his arm. "If a Rank 5 or higher Xyz Monster is summoned to my field, I can, once every duel, add this card back to my hand from the graveyard!" Michael shows the card he sent earlier adding it to his hand.
"Anna!" Timmy cried hearing that.
"Now time to test." Michael glowed as he raises the card. "I activate the spell, Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force!"
Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 Rank 5 or higher Xyz Monster you control; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Number C" or "CXyz" monster that is 1 Rank higher than that monster you control, by using that target as material. (This is treated as an Xyz Summon. Transfer its materials to the Summoned monster.) When a Rank 5 or higher Xyz Monster(s) is Special Summoned to your field while this card is in your GY (except during the Damage Step): You can add this card to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force" once per Duel.
At that his bracelet glowed as his crest appeared on it which he gasped in pain stumbling on his feet shuddering in agony.
Seeing that Dr. Faker frowned. "The card is still too risky to use in actual combat with the Barians."
"Right now testing it is the only way to see how the effects are."
While Chris said this Michael screamed enduring the card's effects as Atlandis glowed entering the Overlay Network. "I rebuild the Overlay Network with Chronomaly Atlandis! Go Chaos Xyz Evolution!" The Overlay Network exploded as a monster materialized.
"Descend! Chaos Number 6! Shatter the limited space-time continuum, and now, engrave your existence into the whole of creation! Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis!"
Emerging over in Atlandis' place was a molten rock/lava titan like Atlandis with two volcanos on it's shoulders, and a lava whip on the field.

Rank 7

Cannot be destroyed by battle, except with a "Number" monster. If you activate any of this card's effects, your opponent takes no further damage this turn. Once per turn: You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; equip that target to this card as an Equip Spell Card whose effect makes this monster gain 1000 ATK. If this card has "Number 6: Chronomaly Atlandis" as an Xyz Material, it gains this effect.
● You can detach 3 Xyz Materials from this card and send all "Number" monsters equipped by this card's effect to the Graveyard (min. 1); make your opponent's Life Points 100.
(ORU: 3)
"That... it's huge!" Allen cried in shock.
Michael breathed a bit from the pain that Argent Chaos Force inflicted onto him. Still he grinned over to Anna. "Well I managed to get pass Argent Chaos Force, Anna. Now it's your turn once you get pass this turn!"
Anna frowned but nodded slightly nervously.
"And now I use Chaos Atlandis' ability! It equips with 1 monster on your field!" Michael called as Atlandis readied it's lava whip moving it on Super Dora to take it.
"I use Super Dora's ability!" Anna called quickly.
Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora: (ORU: 1 - 0)
"Not this time!" Michael takes a card in his hand that he had drawn. "I use Forbidden Chalice!"
Forbidden Chalice
Quick-Play Spell Card
Target 1 face-up monster on the field; until the end of this turn, that target gains 400 ATK, but its effects are negated.
"This gives Super Dora 400 points but it's abilities are negated!" Michael explained to her.
Anna's eyes widened at that.
Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora: (ATK: 3200 + 400 = 3600/Effects Negated)
The whip wrapped on Super Dora forcing it to be absorbed into one of the Volcanos on one of Atlandis' shoulders. "And for every monster it equips with, it gains 1000 points!"
Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora: (Equipped to Number C6: Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis)
Number C6: Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis: (ATK: 3300 + 1000 = 4300/Equipped with Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora)
"It's more powerful than Juggernaut Liebe!" Anna cried in shock seeing that.
"On the positive side of things, when I use either of Chaos Atlandis' abilities you can't take anymore damage this turn." Michael explained before calling. "And now Chaos Atlandis attack Juggarnaught Liebe!" Chaos Atlandis fired lava from it's shoulders at Anna's strongest monster.
Anna's eyes widened as her monster shattered leaving her field empty except for her field spell.
"And you can have your Number back." Michael smiled before calling. "Cause I activate Chaos Atlandis' other ability! By using 3 Overlay Units, and sending every Number it's effect equips to the graveyard, your life points go to 100!" Chaos Atlandis takes the units, and loses Super Dora.
Number C6: Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis: (ATK: 4300 - 1000 = 3300/ORU: 3 - 2 - 1 - 0)
"100!?" Kite asked with widen eyes.
Chaos Atlandis fired a molten blast from it's chest at Anna.
She widened her eyes being blasted back.
(Anna: 0100/Hand: 1)
She landed hard just barely surviving as she slowly gets up.
"Are you still able to go on?" Michael asked first if she's still gonna continue.
"Technically, but I don't think I have any hope of winning." Anna admitted. "I'll be honest, the only card in my hand is Argent Chaos Force but I don't have any way to use it right now."
"All comes down to your draw." Michael said ending his turn. "And as the turn is over Acambaro Figures is added to my hand." The first monster he summoned this turn vanished which he added to his hand.
Michael's Hand: 2/Field: Number C6: Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis (Attack Position)
Anna 2nd Turn:
Anna looked at her deck before slowly drawing as her eyes widened. "I play Special Schedule!"
Special Schedule
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 Machine monster in your GY with 3000 or more ATK; Special Summon that target in Defense Position. If this Set card is sent from the field to the GY: You can target 1 Level 10 Machine monster in your GY; add that target to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Special Schedule" per turn.
"It brings back Super Dora in defense position!"
Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora: (Defense Position)
Super Dora rose up readying.
"And now she's able to use Argent Chaos Force!" Timmy smiled at that.
"Well, here goes nothing. I play my own Rank-Up-Magic Argent Chaos Force!" Anna called playing the spell before her eyes widened and she started to scream in agony.
The card glowed bright as a glow enveloped Anna forcing her to drop a knee.
"Anna!" Timmy cried worried.
"It looks like it causes more damage if it's someone who didn't have the crests before using it." Byron spoke as he watches this.
"Then we should cancel the duel." Thomas spoke moving to step in only for Anna to slowly rose up which made him blink. "Huh?" Suddenly Super Dora started to turn orange flying into the Overlay Network. "What the hell!?"
"I... I rebuild the Overlay Network with rank 10 Super Dora!" Anna groaned. "Go... Chaos Xyz Evolution! I Xyz Summon, lay the rails that lead to the unending chaos of the future and lead the charge into the unknown! Come forth, Chaos Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Giga Dora!"

(ORU: 1)
Raising down was a brown, black armored train machine with three large cannons in a turret capable of spinning around with hover fans below it making it airborn with a large cargo hold, and chaotic energy flowing around it.
They all stared in shock before Anna collapsed.
"Anna!" Timmy ran over as the monsters vanished.
Anna: 0100
Hand: 0

Michael: 1000

Field: Number C6: Chronomaly Chaos Atlandis (Attack Position)
Duel ended with No Result.
Timmy knelled down turning Anna to her back. "Anna..." He pulls her where she's laying on his lap as she looks worried to him while she looks up weakly. Timmy smiled with tears. "Anna... you really are amazing... but please don't scare me like that again."
She nodded as she closed her eyes losing consciousness while Thomas walked over and looked at the card only to blink. "She won."
"What can the Chaos Number do Thomas?" Byron asked as they walked to him.
"Well, if it has Super Dora as material it can use an Overlay Unit to gain 1000 points and become unaffected by any other card." Thomas answered. "But it's other effect is the one that would have won the duel, it uses an Overlay Unit to deal 400 damage for every machine in her graveyard, and she had more than enough to finish off Michael's 2000 life points."
"1000." Michael corrected walking over sighing. "I paid 1000 earlier to summon back Acambaro Figures with the intention of using it to keep Chaos Atlandis from being destroyed if she overpowers it." He then winced holding his shoulder. "Still now we know the extent of what Argent Chaos Force can do right now which should give us some time to work something to minimize the effects."
"We clearly have work to do, it won't do us much good if the vast majority of our allies pass out from the strain of using the spell. As it stands only you three can use it." Dr. Faker told Christopher, Thomas, and Michael.
"True, I can't use the spell card myself." Byron noted.
"And Prime Photon doesn't need it to summon Neo Prime Photon." Kite agreed saying that. "Nor does Shark Drake need it as well alongside Utopia. Still we best prepare ourselves forward." They all nodded before Allen looked over to Timmy, and Anna.
Frowning he turned to them. "Can someone help me move Anna in the house so she can rest please?"
"Sure." Thomas nodded.
Meanwhile...
Alito is currently waiting at the top of a roof for the guy who keeps stopping him. As part of his strategy he's gonna corner the guy by leaving a note on Yuma's Desk to have him come over for Tori's affections.
Running through his classroom Yuma noticed the note. "Huh, meet me on the rooftop to duel for Tori?"
Ray popped up at that. "Huh, who wrote you that Yuma?"
Running through his classroom Yuma noticed the note. "Huh, meet me on the rooftop to duel for Tori?"
Ray popped up at that. "Huh, who wrote you that Yuma?"
"Ah where did you come from!?" Yuma cried in shock while Ray chuckled.
After a while Yuma ran up seeing Alito who turned around grinning. "Good to have you here."
"Look you left this saying I'm dueling for Tori. Are you joking?"
"It's not a joke, and I demand an answer!" Alito yelled over pointing at him. "If you refuse then I can be the only one worthy for Tori!"
"Don't know what your on about but I'm not one to refuse a duel!" While not sure what this is about Yuma grinned over readying over. "Duel Disk go!" He, and Alito's Duel Disks ready, and they attach there Duel Gazers. "Duel Gazer let's roll!"
"Augmented reality vision link established."
"Let's duel!"

"An Xyz Monster on his first turn, be cautious Yuma, he may be under the influence of the Barians." Astral warned him appearing beside him"An Xyz Monster on his first turn, be cautious Yuma, he may be under the influence of the Barians." Astral warned him.
Yuma nodded while unaware to them Alito's eyes widen seeing Astral. 'Wait that's... that's Astral! Then that would mean this kid...' He looked at Yuma before grinning. 'Well this gotten more interesting.' He sets two cards. "Your move Yuma!"
Alito's Hand: 0/Field: Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (Attack Position/ORU: 2), Two Set Cards

"And thanks to it, I can change it's level from 4 to 6!" Yuma added as Gagaga Magician's Level changed.
Gagaga Magician: (LV: 4 + 2 = 6)
"And now with it I Overlay, Gagaga Magician, and Gillagillancer!" Yuma called as the two flew into the Overlay Network. "That way I can build the Overlay Network, and Xyz Summon, Gauntlet Launcher!" At that a red warrior monster rose up readying on the field.

(ORU: 2)
"Be cautious Yuma." Astral frowned. "We have no idea what his monster is capable of."
"Right. And now Gauntlet Launcher attack Lead Yoke!" Gauntlet Launcher charges in as Alito grinned.
"I don't think so! Lead Yoke can use an Overlay Unit to keep itself from being KOed in battle!" Lead Yoke takes a unit as a part of the equipment cracked.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: (ORU: 2 - 1)
"But your still taking damage!" Gauntlet Launcher's attack hit as Alito stumbled. (Alito: 3800/Hand: 0)
But the man is still grinning. "Well now Lead Yoke's other ability allows it to gain 800 points each time it loses an Overlay Unit!"
Lead Yoke snapped free it's arm growling.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: (ATK: 2200 + 800 = 3000)
Yuma grinned back at this calling. "In that case plan B! Gauntlet Launcher can use an Overlay Unit to destroy a monster on your field! I use both! Go!"
Gauntlet Launcher fired both gauntlets.
Gauntlet Launcher: (ORU: 2 - 1 - 0)
It charged in as Alito grinned again. "Not bad Yuma, I use another Overlay Unit to keep Lead Yoke from getting destroyed!" Lead Yoke is protected again from one Gauntlet as it broke free from it's restraints.
Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke: (ATK: 3000 + 800 = 3800/ORU: 1 - 0)
"I still have another go!" Yuma called as the second Gauntlet charged striking Lead Yoke triggering a smoke cloud. "Did that work?" The smoke cleared showing Lead Yoke is still on the field which surprised Yuma. "But how..."
"Simple." He looked as Alito was shown with an active card on the field. "I activated Xyz Reflect before your effect hits."
Xyz Reflect
Counter Trap Card

"When your use an effect that targets an Xyz Monster, it's negated, and destroyed! You also take 800 points of damage!" Lead Yoke punched Gauntlet Launcher destroying it, and sending a shockwave to Yuma pushing him to his back. (Yuma: 3200/Hand: 4)
"Yuma!" Astral cried seeing that.
"Man he's good." Yuma slowly gets up grinning feeling a challenge going on. "Okay I end my turn with these two face-downs!" 'I have no need to worry. I have Battle Break, and Seven Tools of the Bandit to stop him. Come over Alito, I'm ready!'
Yuma's Hand: 2/Field: Two Set Cards

"Okay I draw!" Alito grinned drawing checking. "And I'll start with a simple card! Mystical Space Typhoon!"
Mystical Space Typhoon
Quick-Play Spell Card
Target 1 Spell/Trap on the field; destroy that target.
"So I destroy 1 spell or trap card in play!" Yuma widen his eyes as the cyclone charged in enveloping his left set card showing Seven Tools shattering. "Counter Trap Card... Nice try! Now Lead Yoke attack him directly!" Lead Yoke charged in with a punch.
Yuma grunted before calling. "I activate the trap, Battle Break!"
Battle Break
Normal Trap Card
When an opponent's monster declares an attack: Your opponent can reveal 1 monster in their hand to negate this card's effect, otherwise destroy the attacking monster, then end the Battle Phase.
"When you attack, unless you reveal a monster in your hand, your monster is destroyed, and the battle phase ends!"
"And I don't have a card in my hand." Alito realized staring at his empty hand as he had used his drawn card just now.
"That will help you Yuma, but you're still in a very precarious position." Astral pointed out.
"But I bet you were hoping that were you?" Yuma, and Astral blinked as Alito grinned. "My counter strategy is to block your attempts to stop me! Which is why I activate Jolt Counter!" A trap flipped.
Jolt Counter
Counter Trap Card
During the Battle Phase, when a Spell/Trap Card, or monster effect, is activated while you control a "Battlin' Boxer" monster: Negate the activation, and if you do, destroy that card.
"During battle when a Spell, Trap or monster use it's effect while a Battlin' Boxer is on my field your trap is negated!" Alito said as a lightning bolt charged destroying Battle Break. "Nothing is gonna break up this match, and keeping you from being KOed!"
"Oh man, not good!" Yuma panicked.
"Go Lead Yoke finish this!" Lead Yoke charged as Yuma looked shocked before it punched him off as he cried out landing on his back groaning.
Yuma: 0000
Hand: 2
Field: Nothing
Alito: 3800
Hand: 0
Field: Battlin' Boxer Lead Yoke (Attack Position/ATK: 3800)
Alito wins!
"And that's how you do it." Alito grinned removing his Duel Gazer. 'Well he's lucky it wasn't a match for Barian World. That may change later but he's certainly interesting. Had Battle Break managed to go through, this would have ended differently. Ah well...'
"Yuma!" the door opened as Tori, and Ray ran out as said boy slowly gets up.
"Hey Tori what you doing here?" Yuma asked her standing up.
"Sorry Yuma, I didn't mean to blab about the note to Tori but keeping secrets isn't the Ray way apparently." Ray rubs his head sheepishly.
"Huh, why are you on the ground Yuma?" Tori asked him.
"Well this guy just beat me."
"And I have something to say." Alito walked over staring at Yuma looking stern before then grinning. "That was fantastic!" They all blinked at that. "I thought this be an easy match (which it was) but you had something against me if I didn't stop you! We certainly need to duel again at some point!" Yuma stared shocked over which Alito frowned. "What you don't want another duel?"
Yuma stared before grinning. "Nah of course I do! I will certainly love a rematch at some point!" He then blinked to Alito. "Although doesn't this mean you win Tori now as the note said?"
Alito cleared his throat at that turning to said girl. Tori blushed a bit at that. "Oh... wait do you think I'm just some prize to be won? I'm a human being you know!"
"N-No no, this was just for me to be worthy of you!"
"Huh?"
"He kept on getting in my way when I tried to ask you out so I was suggested to have this match so I can be worthy of you." Alito answered over to her.
Then Yuma blinked realizing something. "Oh wait hang on..." They turned to him which he now looks understanding. "So you think... me and Tori are going out with each other like how Timmy, and Anna are?"
"Who?" Alito asked surprised but didn't show at the mention of Timmy before nodding. "Yeah as a girlfriend!"
"Oh nonono me, and her aren't like that!"
"You aren't?" Alito blinked off-guard.
Yuma shakes his head waving his hands. "No not like that! She's like a sister to me is all! Besides, I already have Cat!"
"What?" Tori asked shocked from that.
"Tori didn't I tell you me, and Cat are going out?"
"No you did not!" Tori yelled in annoyance which Yuma flinched. "I'd appreciate it if you would've told me earlier!"
"Sorry..." Yuma weakly said looking down.
"Well, that settles that." Alito grinned. "So, do you want to go out Tori?"
Tori looked before she sighed. "It's just so sudden right now. I want some time to think before deciding it okay?" She wants some time to think since not only from all of Alito's attempts making sense now, the note that Ray told her, and now learning that Yuma's already dating when she had her eyes on him for a while is too much for her to understand all at once right now.
"Oh, well alright take as long as you need." Alito mentioned.
She nodded as they all walked out with Astral staring at Alito feeling something odd with him.
bopdog111: Okay that's the end of that.
Ulrich362: Good thing Alito wasn't dueling for Numbers, right?
bopdog111: Yeah not this time.
Ulrich362: That said, next up is... going to be something interesting to say the least right?
bopdog111: Time for the Friendship Games. But first up, HOLY SHIT!
Ulrich362: What's up?
bopdog111: This fic is now nearly at 80,000 views!

Ulrich362: It could be more than that. See you in the next chapter.
