Ulrich362: So Timmy is kind of a descendant of Astral World and Barian World and has his grandmother's power... oh and apparently an entity known as Don Thousand is a major threat?
bopdog111: Yeah from all of that. But for now, is a break from all the crazy and some things within the human world. Daily lives.
Ulrich362: That's something they definitely need after all the craziness of the last few chapters.
bopdog111: Of course the kind of crazy that is from personal feelings, or other things. Nothing threatening like more Barian Attacks just as one would call 'Accidentally in Love'.
Ulrich362: That... might be more threatening depending on how it goes.
bopdog111: You guys might've seen I been busy last week.
Ulrich362: Yeah, making some amazing chapters of your best fic.
bopdog111: But also notice that it looks... wonky. Site's trying to adjust it some old, and new are mixing up but hopefully it gets fixed soon. But if you want uninterrupted access, you can check the version on AO3 as it only has the remastered version on it.
Ulrich362: I highly recommend it, as I said it's bopdog's best fic.
bopdog111: Only thing it doesn't beat out is views which goes to me, and Ulrich's best fic, Daughter of Zarc and Ray.
Ulrich362: That's only due to it having more chapters... but those stories aside what's going on here?
bopdog111: As stated before a break from all the crazy with some things for this Earth. One not exactly skipped, and the other with a match I been waiting to do for a while.
Ulrich362: Sounds fun, let's see what happens and... oh wait is this the duel I think it is? I have seen this one and it's good.
bopdog111: Well sorry to disappoint but it isn't Rio and Shark.
Ulrich362: Aw... well it should still be awesome. Enjoy the chapter.

It was a few days after Timmy learned his grandmother was from Astral World. And during that time, Yuma had been given a badge by Ray who had explained Headquarters of the Barian Cosmic Crime Unit wanted to acknowledge his achievements, but before speaking about Kite he was hit by a soccer ball. Around that Orbital 7 was flying for something until something popped up that made him dropped to a fountain, and seen a small clip of a romance film while he was getting out. It sparked something within him unable to figure out this feeling, and seeing couples around the city before Lillybot holding a bag accidentally bumped into him.
When he sees her, he first called her a junk bucket out of frustration but then froze when he takes a good look at her. In his eyes she looked like the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. It gave him the same feeling that he had before but before he went to talk to her she just punched him out of the way before moving away. Orbital was visibly distressed from it, and while back at work he couldn't help but imagine her but tries to focus on his work failing.
Kite had came in with Timmy, and Hart where the older of them asked him about the progress of the Barians. Receiving no answer Kite sharply called his name catching his attention, and when he asked again Orbital responded there making people fall in love before he paused at the ridiculousness of it trying to correct himself only for Kite to order him to get back to work. Timmy, and Hart were surprised from what Orbital said but they smiled to each other knowing Orbital has a crush on someone.
Back at the sight where he seen Lillybot he found the clip again, and realized he was in love with Lillybot, and decided to try to find her, and confess his love for her only for them to bump into her again, and found a letter she dropped mistaking it as a letter to save her, and followed her to Yuma's house imagining that Yuma is treating her like a slave, and abuses her when she does something he doesn't approve of. He swear to rescue Lillybot from Yuma, and left but Lillybot had interpret the letter as a shopping list of letters for short names of what Haru needed her to get.
Orbital decides to try challenging Yuma to let Lillybot go but when Timmy came him asking him who he has feelings for Orbital confessed to him it was Lillybot which Timmy was surprised of before he nodded since it makes sense. He shares that he had dueled Lillybot, and she was a powerful player coming close to defeating him when she outdueled Yuma, and Bronk several times which Orbital looked surprised having thought Yuma was a terrible owner to Lillybot. Timmy told Orbital to let his feelings to Lillybot shine through, and tell her how he really feels.
Either way the next day, Orbital went to Yuma's school and challenged him with the stake of letting him get to know Lillybot if he wins. He was surprised by this but Yuma didn't find a reason to decline so he, Ray, Tori, and Lillybot headed over while Timmy, Hart, Kite, and Penelo were with Orbital to witness this match. Orbital was shown to be a skilled Duelist with his Super Defense Robot Deck, and while Yuma didn't use Utopia, he had eventually take the advantage away from Orbital, and won. If he hadn't been told before, Orbital would've used a satellite cannon to blow Yuma up but Timmy's talk with him prior had him not take things too far.
Tori then properly introduces the two to each other, and the two hit it off quite well. Kite had asked Dextra for a date after seeing this which she accepted from where she was busy in Spartan City as Nistro's manager after the whole situation with the Barian Sphere Field.
Now it was the day of that where Yuma is now running late for school, and was running. "Astral, why didn't you wake me up before!?"
"My apologies Yuma but there has been quite a lot on my mind... I cannot serve as your back-up alarm clock." Astral pointed out to him.
"Well you should've told me, I'd be late!"
"Hey Yuma!" said boy turned where Bronk was skateboarding beside him with a grin. "Get ready to eat my dust like the other times!" He sped fast Yuma who complained about him having an advantage before Bronk notices a family, and ducks which he quickly stopped but gotten hurt by falling off. Rio who had been nearby, and witnessed this looked over, and walked over while Bronk groaned looking at his arm which has a scrape on it from falling off.
"That looked painful, are you alright Bronk?" she asked walking over to him as she noticed the scrape. "Let me take a look at that."
She started to bandage up his scrape so it wouldn't get infected.
During this Bronk couldn't help but felt his heart skip a beat. Ever since Rio came in, he had these feelings towards her. He had somewhat assume that Timmy is close to her but this is the first time he had felt something like this around another girl. And now she is treating his arm from the scrape. He first thought she was like Shark in terms of personality but is more gentler, and kinder then her brother.
"Oh man, are you ok Bronk?" Yuma asked running up to them.
"Huh?" Snapped out of his daze he sees Yuma is nearby concerned for his best friend. Flashing a smile towards his location, Bronk needed to respond. "Yeah, I'm alright. Thanks to Rio."
"That's good." Rio smiled warmly. "Be more careful next time."
"Yeah... thanks." Bronk spoke as Rio walked off to head to school herself. He stares over in love. Touched by this kindness, Bronk knows what he must do. He needs to find a way to have Rio be his girl even if it means beating Shark. So he need to figure out a plan to do so.
"Yuma, I'm not sure I like the look in his eyes." Astral admitted to Yuma seeing the look in his eyes.
"Yeah, neither do I." Yuma frowned. He can pretty much guess what his best friend is thinking of, and if he's right there would be trouble. Brother trouble to be exact. "Bronk, whatever you're thinking, you should stop thinking it."
Hearing this knowing he's making himself look weird Bronk shook his head before turning to Yuma. "Hey, Yuma come on! The race is still on!" He readied, and sped off on his skateboard to not let Yuma win the track to school.
"Huh hey Bronk!" Yuma cried running after him.
So they continued there normal shenanigans for now but later on things will be challenging. Challenging by what will happen in the next few hours...
Later in class Ray, Bronk, Tori, Flip, Cathy, and Caswell were in classroom during there lunchbreak. Yuma is finding himself something to eat when Bronk pulled them in for a talk. Rio, and Shark went together to have lunch themselves so they are all alone from what Bronk wants to talk with them about. They are confused why he pulled them in for a chat together.
"Huh, what's going on Bronk?" Tori asked him. "Is something wrong?"
"Just need to talk about something... Look at this!" Bronk takes out a handkerchief for them to see. "This is Rio's! When I fell off my skateboard earlier, she had used this to help me out!" He had quickly made it to school so his scrape can get properly bandaged as can tell by the bandages on his arm. He didn't want a thoughtful gift such as this to be dirty. "So, do you all have any advice to help me out?"
"On what?"
"How Rio can be with me?" That question made them all blink. They weren't aware at first that Bronk had the hots for Rio but can sorta recall that he looked annoyed that Rio was moved out of his time back at the Friendship Games mostly cause he had gotten Ray as a partner instead of her (which is one reason why) but now they know he truly has feelings for Rio. They be willing to help him with this.
Except well...
"Bronk, Rio's with Timmy." Cathy pointed out.
"I know but... I want a chance to be with her! This is the first time, I ever felt like this, and I want to show her how I feel for her." Bronk spoke over, he does know that Timmy is with her which he real jealous of. He is envious that Timmy can not only have 2 girlfriends but also have one as amazing as Rio. It really makes him angry when he thinks about it. "Besides, he already has Anna, so he doesn't Rio with him as well!" Of course, there are several factors onto this. Otherside that Rio is Shark's brother, or that she won't be interested with him, he's still willing to take a chance with this if it meant he can be close with her.
"And, what about Rio's opinion on this?" Caswell asked him.
"Actually maybe if he wins Shark's respect maybe he may have a chance?" Flip suddenly brought up while they were chatting about this.
"Yeah like... in a duel?" Ray also brought a suggestion onto this how Bronk's chances of having Rio can be increased if Bronk earns Shark's respect.
Bronk is always visualizing it defeating Shark where he spoke that he has earned the right to be with Rio, and is picturing there wedding as well. He knows that Shark defeated him easily in the past before Timmy came in, and does lot of stuff. Which is why he had been training, and practicing to not be the same guy he was before in case the chance of a Number finds it's way towards him. Yeah maybe if he does this, then he can be with Rio.
He gets up while paying no mind to the girls arguing with Flip, and Ray about there suggestions which made them stop turning. "Okay." With a grin he turned walking out intending to find Shark.
"Hey, wait a second Bronk." Tori frowned seeing him walking off.
"He's a goner..." Caswell trailed of knowing they sent him down a grave by a brother. Hope he can forgive them in the afterlife.
In another part of the school Shark waved to Rio that he will see her after school before he walked to find his classroom. He had his feeling lately... ever since Timmy had explained about the Numeron Code, Don Thousand, how Barian World was formed from the chaos energy that Astral World abandoned, and the names of the two Barians that went missing, he is suspicious that something isn't right. Like he is familiar with all of it although he still has human memories so he wonders what exactly this is about... he doesn't want to drag Rio into it so sometime soon, he needs to investigate about this-
Something stepped in front of him which he stopped walking looking over seeing it was Bronk looked determined over. Raising an eyebrow Shark crossed his arms. "What do you want, Bronk?"
"I'm here to challenge you to a duel Shark, and it won't go like last time." Bronk told him confidently.
"A duel?" Shark looked serious about this. A Duel Challenge here? Between them? What exactly is Bronk trying to get from this here? "Give me a reason why I should. If you remember last time, I crushed you without any effort."
"That was the past, I'm a lot better now." Bronk pointed out. "I'd win this time, and then when I do you would talk with your sister Rio about..."
He blushed and looked to the side.
Shark blinked from this. So that's why? About Rio? Doesn't he know Rio is already taken? Braindead idiot... With a scoff Shark turned around crossing his arms. "Don't bother, Bronk. This is not worth our time." Bronk looked over towards him surprised while Caswell, and Flip are nearby being out of sight as they paid attention. "You should already know that Rio is already taken. She is with Timmy, so she wouldn't be interested onto you."
"But if I beat you, then you can-"
"It's not me you should please, it's Rio." Shark spoke over with a glare that intimidated him somewhat. "Besides even if I do, it's not my business to get into her love life. You should give up, she has Timmy with her already." He turned around, and walked off but not before saying one last thing. "Your not as good as him."
Those words triggered a fire within Bronk. Although he knows that Timmy had been taking good care of Rio his jealousy for him is always there. And now Shark refused to assist-! Well, no more, if people don't think he's good enough, they will have another thing coming! By proving he is good enough, by taking on his most difficult challenge to date!
Meanwhile...
Timmy was spending some time with Hart only to suddenly shudder.
"What's wrong Timmy?" Hart blinked from taking his turn on a board game. He suddenly noticed that Timmy had shuddered, and looked worried for him. "Are you sick?"
"No, I just had a feeling someone is angry at me for some reason." Timmy admitted before pausing and looking at the board. "Oh man, you sent me back to start again."
Hart chuckled as they continued on there Board Game together.
"You did what!?"
That was Tori's yell when Caswell, and Flip had came back to the classroom to inform them that Flip posted something on Flip's blogsite. After overhearing Shark, and Bronk's conversation, Flip had made a post, and published it on his blogsite to have everyone in the school know where it looked like Bronk is out for revenge against Timmy for being overruled by Shark as Rio's bachelor, and will challenge the kid himself.
"What, it's true he even went after Shark first... but Shark said if he wanted any chance he had to beat Timmy, it's a battle for the right for Rio's hand." Flip grinned.
"But that's not right! Both Rio, and Timmy are right for each other, and we shouldn't get in between them." Cathy also expressed disbelief over this. They know they are feeding fire to the flames from this post, and things will be ugly coming soon. Not to mention with the kind of duelist Timmy is, taking on someone like Bronk would be child's play.
"I don't know, I mean Bronk is really serious so perhaps he might've?"
"That's not the point Ray!" Tori snapped towards the orange haired boy who raised his hands in surrender. Suddenly Yuma came in sighing from a meal down which Tori notices, and walked over. "Yuma!"
"Huh, what is it Tori?" Yuma asked her curiously.
"You got to tell Bronk to stop this!"
"Huh, stop what?"
At Yuma's question Tori takes out her Duel Disk, and pulls up the blog article showing it to Yuma. Yuma curiously reads over while Astral who just manifested reads over it himself.
"Bronk is challenging Timothy for Rio?" Astral questioned. He knew that this is what Bronk had in mind, and as expecting this is getting ugly. "Does that include Anna as well?"
"What!? Bronk is dueling Tim?"
"Yes Yuma! You need to tell Bronk-"
"Ah yeah this is gonna be sweet!" Tori slumped over while everyone else blinked surprised while Yuma grinned. "Bronk never lost to me, so him against Tim who's a great duelist? I need to find the best seat to that!" He is rather more interested in the duel rather then the stakes, and reasoning as Bronk, his best friend who had never been defeated by him, would duel Timmy who is a Tournament Quality Champion with all of the summon methods together. It makes his heart pump in excitement at the thought of it.
"Yuma! Bronk needs to call it off!" Tori snapped towards Yuma who blinked confused. "He'll just be getting in between Rio, and Timmy if he does this!"
"What?" Yuma blinked looking again as his eyes widened in shock. Now he really sees the circumstances of this. Bronk had tried challenging Shark for Rio, but Shark turned him down with the blog explaining that he will only consider it if he's at good as Timmy was which sparked Bronk's challenge for the young boy.
Now he really sees the circumstances of this. Bronk had tried challenging Shark for Rio, but Shark turned him down with the blog explaining that he will only consider it if he's at good as Timmy was which sparked Bronk's challenge for the young boy.
"Oh man, this is bad... someone needs to warn Timmy." Yuma frowned.
So they all exit over trying to find Bronk before things can escalate further.
Back at the Tenjo Residence, after that game of Sorry! Timmy, Kite, Hart, Penelo, Dr. Faker alongside Orbital were discussing things together regarding the Barian threat alongside Orbital's time of trying to know Lillybot, and what to do when Timmy suddenly gets a message on his Duel Disk.
"Huh?" Timmy checked over seeing the message.
BRONK: Timmy, I got something personal with you. Come to the school after school hours for us to duel. I'm not taking no for an answer, we are gonna duel for something I want.
Something he wants...? What does Timmy have that Bronk wants to have? While he was thinking this Orbital extended his head to see the message he has, and reads it over.
"That doesn't make any sense." Kite frowned. "What are you going to do?"
Timmy thinks it over. Eventually he shrugged over this. "Well, I don't see any reason why I should say no. So, I'll accept his challenge, and see what it is." He then stands over looking over to them. "Are you coming to see as well?"
"I'll be busy here so I can't. So much to do since Mr. Heartland is gone." Dr. Faker shook his head way too busy to head with them. He then looked to his other sons, Penelo, and Orbital. "Are you all able to go as well?"
"Why not, it might be a good distraction." Kite shrugged.
"If ma... master Kite is going then so am I." Orbital replied.
"I'll go." Hart agreed. "It might help me learn a few more things to watch a duel in person again."
"Um... I think I'll stay here." Penelo admitted hesitantly.
"Are you sure Penelo?" Hart asked to her if she's sure about her decision.
She nodded before frowning. "I... I want to talk with your dad about something anyway."
Hart nodded. After they waved, and left now Dr. Faker is alone with Penelo. Said man turns toward Penelo wondering what she needs to talk to him with. "What is it you want to discuss with me, Penelo?"
"I... I'm scared, I think Timmy, Yuma, and dad are in danger." Penelo admitted shaking a bit. "He's going to hurt them... badly."
"This Don Thousand character that Timmy spoke about from his Grandmother's letter?" Dr. Faker can guess who she means by that, since they haven't seen Don Thousand yet, and if he's out for the Numeron Code then things will happen to get what he wants.
"No, not him... it's... Ray." she shivered looking down nervously. "I... I think he's one of them."
"Ray?" Dr. Faker blinked about the boy that was with them. He was clumsy but well-meaning, and friendly. But Penelo is thinking he's a Barian? Then again, Yuma had used a spell that used Barian energy, and he was somewhat feeling something from him when he noticed him. He can't quite place it though, he never met Ray before that. "You think he's a Barian?"
Penelo nodded. "I... I was captured by the Barian Emperors before..."
She shivered remembering that but she had to tell someone and Dr. Faker was someone she trusted and Ray wasn't around often enough to figure out he knew.
"One of them... was the most terrible of all, and, Ray feels just like him. He wanted to torture me all the time just for fun... the others didn't let him but... he's really scary. Vector..."
"The same Barian who gave me, and Byron the power..." Dr. Faker trailed off remembering him. He had possessed him during his duel with Timmy, and thanks to him, he had been defeated. And what Penelo spoke about him, he is the most malevolent out of all of the Barian Emperors being really cruel, and sadistic thinking everything is a game while enjoying the suffering of others. "You think he, and Ray have some sort of connection? But then... why would Ray be fighting them with us?" That be a good question why if Ray really is a Barian, why is he fighting them with Yuma, and the others?
Penelo frowned. "I don't know, but I'm scared... he feels just like Vector."
Dr. Faker cupped his chin. If what Penelo is saying is true, then... this could be a ploy by the Barians to gain an advantage over Yuma, and Timmy. Although from Yuma using the spell from Barian World probably supplied by Ray, that might not seem to be the case. Not to mention both Alito, and Girag were unfamiliar with Ray so it wouldn't make sense why they be hostile towards him if they already knew each other.
"Well... unfortunately, we are unsure about him." Dr. Faker spoke to Penelo before turning to her. "For now, we're gonna need to keep an eye on Ray, we don't have anything solid against him right now."
Penelo looked hesitant but nodded. "Ok..."
"But make no mistake, me, and Byron will make sure if he so much as slips we will be aware." Dr. Faker promised her that if anything gives Ray away as an agent they will know about it, and expose him the moment it happens. Penelo nodded at that.
Meanwhile at the school...
Bronk was at the outside dueling field of the school. He didn't care for the viral post that is happening right now, all that matters if for Timmy to pay for taking Rio away, and claim her to himself. So now after sending that message, and getting a response, he is waiting for Timmy. He knows this is dangerous as Timmy is one of the best duelists he had known. But he is ready, ever since the Numbers happen, he had been making sure his Deck is always at it's best against threats even if he finds a Number himself. So with the Deck the way it is, Timmy won't know what hit him!
"Bronk?" a voice spoke behind him which when he turned sees the three Tenjo brothers, and Orbital had arrived.
"Why did you challenge Timmy to a duel?" Hart asked curiously.
"Like I spoke, I want something from him. And here in this duel we will battle for it!" Bronk spoke clenching his hand. Then he pointed over to Timmy. "So then Timmy, right here and now, we will duel for it! I hope your ready!"
"Okay then Bronk. I accept your challenge!" Timmy spoke as he readied over. He turned to his brothers, and Orbital. "Walk to the side please. I hate for you guys to be caught in the crossfire."
Kite, Hart, and Orbital walked over just as Yuma and the others ran up to see Bronk and Timmy activate their Duel Disks and Duel Gazers.
"Ah, we're too late!" Yuma spoke seeing this.
"Duel Disk ready! And Duel Gazer let's go!" Timmy spoke over as there Duel Gazers glowed.
"Augmented Reality Vision Link Established."
"LET'S DUEL!"
(Dueling Theme: A Shadow Behind by Cenacle)

Field: Nothing
Bronk: 4000
Hand: 5
Field: Nothing
Let the duel commence!
Timmy 1st Turn:
"Since you challenged me, I'm first." Timmy spoke checking his hand. He doesn't know what Bronk can do for now, so he'll test the waters. "I first summon, Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul from my hand." Ustuzul appeared on the field ready for what it's duelist is facing now.
(Attack Position)

If this card is used as Material or Tributed for a Summon of a Dragon Monster: You can target 1 Level 4 or higher monster your opponent controls; negate it's effects. You can only activate this effect of "Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul" once per turn.
"Then I place 2 face-downs to end this turn for now." Timmy ended his turn nice, and easy for now to see what Bronk can do before he can really let loose.
Timmy's Hand: 2/Field: Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul (Attack Position), Two Set Cards
Bronk 1st Turn:
"My turn now!" Bronk drew checking over his hand. With the way his Deck is, he is sure, he can prove he is as good as Timmy was, and then can have Rio with Shark's approval.
"Alright Timmy, I'll start off with a spell that might slow you down. Clockwork Night!" Bronk called playing the spell.
(face-up)
Clockwork Night
Continuous Spell Card
All face-up monsters on the field become Machine monsters. Machine monsters you control gain 500 ATK/DEF, also Machine monsters your opponent controls lose 500 ATK/DEF. You can banish this card from your GY, then discard 1 card; add 1 EARTH Machine monster from your Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Clockwork Night" once per turn. You can only activate 1 "Clockwork Night" per turn.
"This spell turns every monster on the field into a machine, and mine get 500 attack and defense points stronger while yours get 500 attack and defense points weaker."
"So, why did Bronk challenge Timmy?" Kite asked Yuma and the others.
"He has feelings for Rio, and he thinks if he wins this duel Timmy will break up with her since he's dating Anna and Rio." Caswell explained.
Ustuzul turned into a metallic version of itself.
Uztuzul: (ATK: 1400 - 500 = 900/DEF: 1100 - 500 = 600/Type: Machine)
'Nezbitt's card huh...?' Timmy of course is familiar with the card. Not only does it disrupt some strategies that require a specific monster type, it also gain an advantage over him. He better be careful cause who knows what Bronk can do here.
"Then I summon Geargiano MK-II!" Raising up on the field was a monster shaping as some gear cogs that's yellow, and blue inside with comical eyes on it. He also has spring arms with gloves on them on the field.
(Attack Position)
Geargiano MK-II
EARTH
Level 3
Machine/Effect
ATK: 1000
DEF: 500
When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 "Geargia" monster from your hand or Graveyard in Defense Position.
"A Geargia Deck huh?" Timmy knows of the Geargias, they are most common as Machine support or something like that, so he never seen a pure one. This will be interesting.
"So that's his strategy, not bad but it's going to take more to beat Timmy." Kite noted thoughtfully.
"As MK-II is summoned, it's special ability lets me summon another Geargia from my hand!" Bronks takes a card placing it down. "Joining this is the improved gear, Geargiano MK-III!"
Another gear monster looking identical to MK-II appeared only this one's gears are blue instead of yellow.
(Defense Position)
Geargiano MK-III
EARTH

ATK: 1000
DEF: 1000
When this card is Special Summoned by the effect of a "Geargia" card: You can Special Summon 1 "Geargia" monster from your hand or Graveyard in Defense Position, except "Geargiano Mk-III", but its effects are negated. You can only use this effect of "Geargiano Mk-III" once per turn. You cannot Special Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect, except "Geargia" monsters.
"And as this card is summoned by a Geargia, I can summon another Geargia from my hand as long as it negates it's special abilities!"
"3 monsters in one turn." Timmy spoke with a smile hearing that.
"Well what do you know, he has improved a little." mentioned a voice as they saw Shark and Rio had arrived only they looked annoyed.
"Flip, after this duel you and I are having a conversation." Rio told him calmly though her glare was icy.
"Uh, w-w-what?" Flip wondered why she looks so annoyed, and towards him of all people.
"So now I summon the original! Geargiano!" Another gear monster appeared this one having silver gears then other two.
(Defense Position)
(Effects Negated)
Geargiano
EARTH
Level 3
Machine/Effect
ATK: 500
DEF: 1000
You can Tribute this card, then target 1 Level 4 Machine-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it, but its effects are negated.
"Geargiano, MK-II, and MK-III? Is that his entire deck?" Flip questioned. He is seeing triple of the same monster, and frankly he is wondering if the same monster of different versions are his Deck. "How many of those things are there? Is there an MK-IV, MK-V?"
"Now I overlay all three Geargianos! In order to build the Overlay Network!"
The three glowed brown flying up towards the Overlay Network before it exploded manifesting into a monster.
"Gearsprings form together to shape into the powerful machines springing there gears to really grind! Xyz Summon! Come on, Geargiagear Gigant XG!"
Manifesting was a giant like monster onto the field. It has yellow, and blue armor on with a bulky body of multiple cars together. It also has a large gun as a trash truck, and a giant silver gear as a shield.
(Attack Position)
Geargiagear Gigant XG

These effects last until the end of the Damage Step. When this face-up card leaves the field: You can target 1 other "Geargia" card in your Graveyard; add that target to your hand.
(ORU: 3)
"2500 points?" Yuma asked in shock. "Bronk's not holding anything back with that thing."
"Not 2500 Yuma. With his spell, Clockwork Night, it gains 500 more." Like Astral said Bronk's spell further powered up his Xyz Monster.
Geargiagear Gigant XG: (ATK: 2500 + 500 = 3000/DEF: 1300 + 500 = 1800)
Everyone looked shocked at the powerful monster Bronk played on his first move.
"If he attacks he'll wipe out half of Timmy's life points on his first turn!" Caswell realized.
Timmy readied for this as Bronk sets a card. "Okay Gigant X attack Ustuzul!" Gigant X charged a cannon blast from it's gun as Timmy readied to activate a card which his opponent called. "At this moment, Gigant X's special ability activates!" Gigant X takes a Overlay Unit in it's shield which Timmy turned over. "By using an Overlay Unit, when a Geargia is battling, all your cards are negated, and you can't activate cards during the battle!" A purple aura formed around Timmy's set cards, and Ustuzul looked visibly weakened.
Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul: (Effects Negated)
Geargiagear Gigant XG: (ORU: 3 - 2)
"And it negates cards? Bronk why didn't you use that when were trying to get the Numbers?" Yuma asked him in shock. Seriously, if Bronk has a card as powerful as that, why didn't he use it against the Numbers?
"These are all recent Yuma. New additions." Bronk spoke before pointing ahead. "Alright Gigant X let him have it!"
Gigant X fired from it's gun at command which blown apart Ustuzul in one hit while crossed his arms in front of him to defend against the attack. (Timmy: 1900/Hand: 2) "That'll teach me for going easy on the first turn..." Okay, he learned his lesson now. Bronk's gonna have his best from head on.
Bronk grinned from the attack. "How'd you like that?" Just a bit more, and he can earn Rio's hand.
Bronk's Hand: 2/Field: Geargiagear Gigant XG (Attack Position/ATK: 3000/DEF: 1800/ORU: 2), Clockwork Night (face-up), One Set Card
Timmy: 1900

Timmy 2nd Turn:
"I... actually like that quite a bit." Timmy flashed a smile towards Bronk's direction. Despite being at a disadvantage now, this is exciting him at facing a powerful opponent. "Your not giving me any quarter, so it's only fair, I don't hold back either! I draw!" With that said, Timmy drew before he takes a card from his hand. "And I use Dragonscale Archiving!"
(face-up)
Dragonscale Archiving
Continuous Spell Card
When this card activates: Place 2 "Dragon Archiver" monsters with different names from your Deck in your Pendulum Zones. For the rest of this turn after this effect resolves you can only Special Summon once. Once per turn, when a "Dragon Archiver" monster on the field activates it's effect: The player that activated that monster's effect gains 1000 LP. You can only control 1 "Dragonscale Archiving".
"When this card activates, I take 2 Dragon Archivers from my Deck different to each other, and place them in my Pendulum Zones! The drawback is that for the rest of the turn, I can only Special Summon once." Timmy explained as he takes 2 cards. "And I set Scale 1 Dragon Archiver - Roalei, and Scale 8, Dragon Archiver - Renotu!"
Roalei, and Renotu rose up in between Timmy in classic Pendulum power.

"That allows me to summon Level 2, and 7 monsters all at once!" Timmy spoke while Bronk hold his breath knowing he's at the rear end of a Pendulum Summon right now, and braces himself for what he has now.
"Timmy's signature move, though with Bronk's Xyz Monster his scales will be negated during battle." Astral pointed out.
"Yeah but wouldn't matter if Timmy has defense. That monster can't deal piercing damage." Yuma spoke to him before they turned back to the duel.
"Dragon Sorcerers built on the ancient archive! Grant us your boon on your wisdom! Pendulum Summon! Come my monsters!"
The Pendulum portal lit up as 3 lights shot down forming into monsters.
"Dragon Archivers - Janie, Yggdrasil, & Uztuzul!" The three monsters including the destroyed Ustuzul were formed in defense forms to try guarding against the giant monster.

Yggdrasil: (ATK: 1500 - 500 = 1000/DEF: 800 - 500 = 300/Type: Machine)
"Since that spell keeps him from Special Summoning more then one time, increasing his defenses is the best he can do for now." Kite spoke seeing this, that Timmy needs to last a turn before he can do much of what he can do here.
Shark frowned slightly seeing that while Rio looked annoyed at the entire situation.
"At my end phase, Ustuzul's mandatory ability activates! It banishes a card from your graveyard!" Bronk widen his eyes as the lone card in his graveyard Geargiano MK-II was removed from the graveyard. Timmy then looked towards Dragonscale Archiving. "Then as I used the effect of a Dragon Archiver on the field, I regain 1000 points!" He is healed somewhat from Gigant X's attack earlier before he turned back over. "I end my turn here, Bronk."
Timmy's Hand: 0/Field: Dragon Archiver - Roalei (Pendulum), Dragon Archiver - Renotu (Pendulum), Dragon Archiver - Yggdrasil (Defense Position/ATK: 1000/DEF: 300/Type: Machine), Dragon Archiver - Janie (Defense Position/ATK: 900/DEF: 0/Type: Machine), Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul (Defense Position/ATK: 900/DEF: 600/Type: Machine), Dragonscale Archiving (face-up), Two Set Cards
Bronk 2nd Turn:
"Okay then, don't think, those extra points will help!" Bronk called drawing before he grinned seeing his drawn card. "I activate Geargiagear!" A trap showing of Geargiano, and it's MK-II form popping out of a machine was flipped.
Geargiagear
Normal Trap Card
Special Summon 2 "Geargiano" monsters from your Deck and increase their Levels by 1. You can only activate 1 "Geargiagear" per turn.
"I take 2 copies of any Geargiano from my Deck, and not only summon them but also make them Level 4!" Bronk takes two cards placing them which what rose was 2 copies of the original Geargiano.
Geargiano: (Attack Position/LV: 3 + 1 = 4) x2
"Two level four monsters now?" Tori's eyes widened before she frowned. "Bronk stop it, Rio isn't some prize to be won in a duel she loves Timmy."
"Now I summon Aye-Iron!" Bronk continued on only focused on this match as a robot kangaroo with cymbals, and overalls appeared on the field as it smacked it's cymbals.
"Aye-Aye-Aye!" Aye-Iron spoke over while clanging it's cymbals.
(Attack Position)
Aye-Iron
EARTH
Level 4
Machine/Effect
ATK: 1600

Once per turn: You can have this card gain 400 ATK. This card cannot attack the turn you activate this effect.
"And now with them, I overlay Aye-Iron, and my two Geargianos!" the three glowed brown flying over towards the Overlay Network. Timmy blinked seeing this. 2 Xyz Summons with 3 monsters each? He haven't seen anyone pull that off as the more monsters you use the more challenging it becomes to summon stronger monsters.
"Gearsprings to change over for the benefit of grinding! In order to take control of the gears, it requires maintenance! Xyz Summon! Come, Tin Archduke!"
Raising beside Gigant X was a human like robot having a blonde mustache, and hair while wearing a red, and hold Victorian like duke suit with a sword in his hand.

(ORU: 3)
"Oh it's Bronk's ace now. That thing always trip me up." Yuma spoke seeing it recalling the many times it beat him while he, and Bronk were growing up together.
"What does that monster do Yuma?" Hart asked nervously. "Timmy's ok right?"
"Well... Tin Archduke switches monsters from defense position to attack position, and with Geargiagear Gigant XG's ability to stop Timmy from doing anything when he attacks... no, he's not ok." Yuma answered. He knows that Bronk is pretty good with Tin Archduke, and it combined with Gigant's own abilities will make this harder then before.
Tin Archduke: (ATK: 2200 + 500 = 2700/DEF: 1200 + 500 = 1700)
"Now Tin Archduke, I use your special ability!" Tin Archduke attempts to take an Overlay Unit to use it's ability as it aimed it's sights at Ustuzul. "So now your monster's going right back to Attack Position!" Just then Bronk notices something wrong. Tin Archduke isn't taking an Overlay Unit which confuses him. "Hey, what the...?"
"Sorry Bronk." he blinked while Timmy grinned over towards him. "But the Pendulum Effect of Renotu prevents you from targeting Dragon Archivers on the field with your card effects."
"Clever, so Bronk's combo won't work." Shark noted calmly.
Bronk frowned over. "Okay I can't use it but I can do this! Gigant X, attack Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul!" Gigant X readied another blast towards Ustuzul who readied itself before Bronk called. "Now Gigant X use your special ability, and shut his field down again!" Gigant X takes another unit as Timmy's field grayed.
Dragon Archiver - Roalei: (Effects Negated)
Dragon Archiver - Renotu: (Effects Negated)
Dragon Archiver - Yggdrasil: (Effects Negated)
Dragon Archiver - Janie: (Effects Negated)
Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul: (Effects Negated)
Dragonscale Archiving: (Effects Negated)
Bronk then grinned. "Now! I activate Tin Archduke's ability!" This time Tin Archduke takes an Overlay Unit. "I can't do it when Renotu has her ability but when it's negated during battle! So raise up Ustuzul!"
Ustuzul grunted as Tin Archduke's ability forced him to stand up.
Tin Archduke: (ORU: 3 - 2)
Ustuzul: (Attack Position)
"But Bronk had a counter." Rio frowned.
"Attack Gigant X!" Gigant X fired another blast that enveloped Ustuzul like before while Timmy raised an arm from the attack. (Timmy: 0800/Hand: 0)
"If Timmy hadn't gained points earlier from Dragonscale Archiving's effect, he would've lost." Astral spoke over seeing this impressed with Bronk's tactics that allows him to overwhelm his opponents, and keep them from making a strong attack. Who knew, Bronk had something like this hiding?
"Now Tin Archduke attack Janie!" Tin Archduke himself charges in at Janie who readied herself with a grunt. This time Bronk didn't use Gigant X's ability but Timmy didn't use his face-down as the conditions aren't met with what he had for the beginning. But he has something else. "I got this! Renotu's other Pendulum Ability!" Bronk blinked over a barrier appeared. "When a Dragon Archiver is attacked, I can negate the attack!" The barrier blocked Tin Archduke's sword keeping Janie on the field from being destroyed.
"That was way too close." Tori sighed. That was way too close for comfort... Rio's comfort. "Timmy you need to win this duel."
"Okay then, you last that." Bronk shrugged as he sets a card. "But I still have more up my sleeve."
Bronk's Hand: 1/Field: Geargiagear Gigant XG (Attack Position/ATK: 3000/DEF: 1800/ORU: 1), Tin Archduke (Attack Position/ATK: 2700/DEF: 1700), Clockwork Night (face-up), One Set Card

Timmy 2nd Turn:
"After all I seen so far? I was hoping, you have more." Timmy smiled big to Bronk which made his opponent blink over surprised. "Your real strong, and I want to face more of what you got!" He drew before he smiled more. "And since this isn't the turn where I activated Dragonscale Archiving, I can Special Summon more then one time now!" Bronk grunted gearing himself if Timmy summons one of his signature dragons this turn.
"Timmy listen to me!" Tori told him trying to have him listen to what's going on. "Bronk is dueling to make you break up with Rio!"
"Stop it Tori." Shark spoke to her which she turned over. "Let Bronk express himself in this duel, it be better if he gets it out of his system. You don't need to worry, despite what Bronk has now, if Timmy is truly worthy of Rio, he would pull through." He isn't saying he approves it, he is showing faith that Timmy will prevail over this challenge to deal against a love rival. And like he said, Bronk needs to let this out of him now or it will continue eating him up, and something bad will happen in the future.
Maybe him being a pawn of the Barians who will take advantage of his jealously.
"She's just trying to explain the situation to him Reginald, he deserves to know why he was challenged even if it doesn't change anything." Rio frowned towards him. "Besides, I have a feeling Timmy's about to do something amazing."
Shark does already know that, but not now otherwise Timmy will cancel the duel, and make this more difficult.
"And I will, no need to worry." Timmy spoke over not understanding what there talking about as he didn't catch most of it but heard Rio said he will do something amazing. "We will start with a Pendulum Summon! Come on back guys!" The Pendulum Portal appeared as a card shot down which is Ustuzul again.
Dragon Archiver - Ustuzul: (Attack Position)
"And next up, I activate Forgotten Soul Ritual Dragon's effect in my hand!" Timmy shows the Ritual Dragon card he had they haven't him use since Devon Knox. Only they haven't seen how else it can be summoned other then a Ritual Spell. "So now, I can Ritual Summon this card without the need of a Ritual Spell!"
"Ritual Summon without a spell?" Bronk gasped.
Janie, and Yggdrasil flew up being sacrificed as Timmy raised an arm. "The Archives of the Dragons focus on studying the determined soul! And now the dragon that sleeps within the salvation is ready to grant peace to it's loved ones! Ritual Summon! Level 7, Forgotten Soul Ritual Dragon!"
Forming was Forgotten Soul as it roared loud above Timmy forming onto the field.
(Attack Position)

DEF: 2100
You can Ritual Summon this card with it's own effect. If this card is in your hand: You can Tribute monsters on your field, or hand who's levels exceed or exceed this card's Level, then Ritual Summon this card from your hand. If this card is Ritual Summoned using only monsters on the field: You can negate the effects of all Special Summoned monsters your opponent controls. You can Tribute 1 other monster you control; halve the ATK of all Level 5 or higher monsters your opponent controls until the End Phase. You can only activate each effect of "Forgotten Soul Ritual Dragon" per turn.
"Your dragon is still vulnerable to Clockwork Night which means my monsters are more powerful." Bronk pointed out.
Forgotten Soul Ritual Dragon: (ATK: 2500 - 500 = 2000/DEF: 2100 - 500 = 1600/Type: Machine)
"Maybe but there is something you should know." Bronk blinked as Timmy swiped his arm smiling over. "The effects of your monster are negated as Forgotten Soul is summoned using monsters only on my field!" Bronk widen his eyes as Forgotten Soul charged up wrapping it's wings around itself. "Forgotten Embrace!" Spreading it's wings out a green wave was released from it enveloping both of Bronk's monsters.
Before they can Bronk grunted raising an arm. "Before it's effects are negated, Tin Archduke's ability activates!"
Tin Archduke: (ORU: 2 - 1)
Raising it's sword Tin Archduke pointed it over towards Forgotten Soul who roared as it was forced to change Battle Position.
Forgotten Soul Ritual Dragon: (Defense Position)
Shark closed his eyes in thought. "Maybe I should duel Bronk again... he's clearly improved a little."
Geargiagear Gigant XG: (Effects Negated)
Tin Archduke: (Effects Negated)
"Now I activate the effects of the Dragon Archivers, I used! When Janie is used to summon a dragon, I draw a card!" Timmy called drawing. "And with Yggdrasil used, I can summon a Dragon Archiver that's level 4 or below to either our fields!" Taking a card he places it on. "Dragon Archiver - Dingernell!" Dingernell rose onto the field grinning over.
(Attack Position)
Dragon Archiver - Dingernell

If this card is used as Material or Tributed for a Summon of a Dragon Monster: You can inflict 200 damage to your opponent for each card they currently control. You can only activate this effect of "Dragon Archiver - Dingernell" once per turn.
"Not good." Bronk frowned.
Dragon Archiver - Dingernell: (ATK: 1500 - 500 = 1000/DEF: 1100 - 500 = 600/Type: Machine)
"As the effect of a Dragon Archiver activates, I gain 1000 points due to the effect of Dracgonscale Archiving." Timmy regenerated some LP thanks to his spell. (Timmy: 1800/Hand: 1) With that done he then raised an arm. "Now I overlay Dingernell, and Ustuzul!" The two glowed purple flying up towards the Overlay Network.
"Dark Rebellion now too?" Bronk asked nervously. "Not good."
"He finally dealt some damage." Tori admitted. "But he's still at a disadvantage."
"Now I activate Dark Rebellion's ability! By using 2 Overlay Units, I can cut Gigant X's attack points in half, and have Dark Rebellion gain that much!" Dark Rebellion takes two Overlay Units as it's wings split. "Treason Discharge!" Purple electricity charged blasting over, and binding Gigant X allowing Dark Rebellion to take some of it's power.
Geargiagear Gigant XG: (ATK: 3000 / 2 = 1500)
Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon: (ATK: 2000 + 1500 = 3500/ORU: 2 - 1 - 0)
"And I activate Forbidden Archive!" Timmy used another spell.
Forbidden Archive
Quick-Play Spell Card
Target 1 face-up monster on the field that was Special Summoned with a "Dragon Archiver" monster as material; until the end of this turn, that target gains 600 ATK for each Special Summoned monster your opponent controls, also if it destroys an opponent's monster by battle; inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. During your Standby Phase, you can banish this card from your GY: Both players draw 1 card.
"For every monster that is Special Summoned to your field, Dark Rebellion gains 600 attack points!" Dark Rebellion was energized from the spell's effect as it roared loud.
Dark Rebellion: (ATK: 3500 + (600 * 2) = 4700)
"4700!?" Bronk cried in disbelief.
"Battle! Dark Rebellion attack Geargiagear Gigant XG! Mauling Mandible Charge!" Dark Rebellion roared charging up ahead towards the large Xyz Machine as it prepared itself for the battle ahead.
'My set card is Xyz Revenge Shuffle... I don't have an Xyz Monster in the graveyard to use it... Timmy...' Bronk looked away from his set card towards the young man in front of him with a smile. Despite all he managed to do, and shut down Timmy's field several times, he had still pulled around a turnaround, and defeated him. Well at least Bronk can say he tried. 'You better take good care of Rio.' He closed his eyes gently smiling as Dark Rebellion struck it's bladed jaw against Gigant XG which destroyed it as Bronk yelled out blown back some, and landed on the ground on his back groaning.

Timmy wins!
The victor smiled over towards the big guy as he bowed politely. "Thanks for a great duel Bronk very much. Maybe we can do this again sometime. Only as a fun match instead of whatever it is you wanted." He chuckled a little from this.
"Yeah, that sounds great little pal." Bronk smiled as he got back up.
"Actually... what exactly is it you wanted?" Timmy then asked as Flip, and Caswell turned to try sneaking away from Rio.
"To make us break up." Rio frowned. She is still quite annoyed over the whole thing. "I saw him crash his skateboard and he got scraped up so I offered to help. Then I don't know the details but those two…"
She glared at Flip and Caswell.
"Took it too far."
The two froze feeling the glare, and stiffly, slowly, and hesitatingly turned there heads over towards her.
"He was jealous, you're with Anna and Rio." Tori explained.
"What?" This whole entire thing... was of love rivalry? With widen eyes Timmy turned towards Bronk. "Bronk... I would never bet something like that. Why did you try doing this, instead of just telling me?"
"You were already with Anna, and I tried thinking of things for Rio, and Shark to approve of me so I can at least have a chance. Then Shark told me, that I'm not as good as you are so I have to try with all of the practicing I've been doing."
Timmy frowned over from this. While he had a fun duel, the circumstances of it would've made him cancel the duel right then, and there had he known that his relationship with Rio was on the line even if nothing would change. But he can understand what Bronk is going through before he met Anna, he thought he would never be in a relationship due to his parents wanting him to marry a wealthy girl, and not some 'commoner' or 'poor person'. And he often hear stories of love rivals often getting endings where karma bites them on the ass harshly, and with the duel over some of those feelings with Bronk are now mostly settled.
"Well Bronk... I'm sorry that you aren't able to be with Rio." Timmy spoke towards him. "But... Rio isn't the only girl for you to see. There are plenty of fish in the sea, so if you keep looking sooner or later the girl who's perfect for you will appear." He then smiled to him. "All you have to do is be patient, and don't try to chase after it, it'll be farther away that way."
"Easy for you to say, two fell into your lap." Bronk sighed.
"I... don't exactly say that." Timmy spoke not sure if that's really accurate... probably it is considering how the three of them met each other. He then turned to Rio after she was done speaking her mind to a really pale Caswell, and Flip before he walked over. When Rio looked over Timmy bowed to her. "I'm sorry... for putting our relationship on the line like this Rio. I didn't know but that's no excuse."
"It's not your fault Timmy, and I know you care about your friends." Rio smiled gently hugging him.
Timmy smiled hugging her back.
"So uh... what exactly happens now?" Yuma asked which Cathy, and Tori in between him that made them turn to him.
"The end of this charade!" they both spoke reaching, and pinching a part of his butt together.
Yuma jumped holding his butt with a yell. "Ow! Hey, what was that for!?" Both girls giggled over from this while everyone laughed or smiled over from this.
bopdog111: Okay that's one match that tested Timmy's relationship with Rio.
Ulrich362: True, but it all worked out in the end.
bopdog111: Next episode be another match I also been waiting for as we get to see how far Timmy, and Anna can go for each other. Alongside a detail that the ZEXAL dub excluded at the end of that two-parter.
Ulrich362: Anna and Timmy, not Rio and Timmy? Also what detail would that be?
bopdog111: Well Rio and Timmy are already tested somewhat here in this chapter. As for that detail we will find out next time as it will be where Anna, and him will duel the person who taught her how to duel, and her husband in a Couples Tournament when Anna hears she's retiring from dueling.
Ulrich362: Sounds fun, see you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
Suddenly Anna who arrived with her rocket arrived at the location after being notified by Rio what's going on. Seeing everyone laughing, and smiling together she turns to the camera confused. "So... what did I miss?"
bopdog111: Trust us, you don't want to know.
Ulrich362: He's right.
