Yu-Gi-Oh GX Digi-Stars: Twilight Wars

 

Chapter 28: Virtual and Spirit Day Craziness

 

(Within Kaiba Corporation headquarters in Japan; One day after we last left our heroes and heroines)

 

Inside of the headquarters of Kaiba Corporation, we find none other than Seto Kaiba working on many things his personal computer including his `secret project' for the new `Duel Runners' and `Turbo Duels'. He is even designs arena for us in `Turbo Duels'.

 

Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “Perfect. Pegasus might have done well with his new Tuner and Synchro monsters, but my new Five Dimensions Duel Disk will make sure that I'm not left behind. However, this shall totally change dueling forever. And my company shall be on top once more.” Just then he hears a door open and Kaiba looks to his adult younger brother, Mokuba, run into the room.

 

Mokuba says, seriously, “Seto!”

 

Kaiba tells Mokuba, curiously, “What is it Mokuba?”

 

Mokuba tells Seto, with a serious tone, “There seems to be an anomaly in the network!”

 

Kaiba yells out, stunned, “What?!”

 

As Kaiba stands up, Mokuba tells Kaiba, “That's right, Seto. There seems to be a strange anomaly in the network and it seems similar to the programming of Noah's virtual world.”

Kaiba calls out, stunned, “What?!”

 

Mokuba says, with a nod, “Yeah! It could be Noah! Maybe he survived!”

 

Kaiba tells Mokuba, with a snort, “Not that brat again. But if it is that kid, why did he come back after so long?”

 

Mokuba says, with a sigh, “Maybe his data was dormant until recently. I really don't know.”

 

Kaiba asks Mokuba, with a serious tone, “Where is the source of the anomaly?”

 

Mokuba tells Kaiba, with a serious tone, “Duel Academy, bro.”

 

Kaiba gets up from his seat and he says, “Mokuba, I'm heading for Duel Academy.”

 

Mokuba says, with a serious tone, “I'm going with you and don't argue with me, Seto. If it is Noah, I want to see him again. He will be amazed at how much I've grown up.”

 

Kaiba says, with a sigh, “Whatever you say, Mokuba.” Immediately, Kaiba pushes a button on his speaker phone and he says, “Tell everyone that I will be off to Duel Academy for important business!”

 

A female voice replies over the speaker phone, “Right, Mister Kaiba!”

 

Kaiba takes his finger off the speaker phone and he tells Mokuba, “Let's go Mokuba.”

 

Mokuba says, with a nod, “Right, Seto.” Immediately, Kaiba and his brother head off to the door of Kaiba's office to get Kaiba's personal jet to head for Duel Academy.

 

(Later that morning; at Duel Academy)

 

At Duel Academy, we find a Ra Yellow student dueling against an Obelisk Blue student with the Ra Yellow student having 1500 life-points, one face-down card, and a Mad Sword Beast (1400/1200) in attack mode and the Obelisk Blue has 1750 life-points, two face-down cards, and two monsters on the field, Jinzo (2400/1500) and Machine King (2200/2000-2400/2000).

 

The Obelisk Blue student says, with a sly grin, “Okay, pal, it's time for you to lose this duel! Without your traps to protect you, it's all over!” But before he can declare his attack, the holograms begin to spark and fizzle.

 

The Ra Yellow student asks, perplexed, “Hey, what's going on here?”

 

The Obelisk Blue student replies, stunned, “You are asking me?!” Just then both duel disks spark causing the two boys to yelp out as they get slightly shocked and they immediately de-attach their duel disks, allowing them to drop to the ground, and the holograms on the field fade away. The Obelisk Blue student yells out, perplexed, “What the? I had my duel disk checked this morning!”

 

The Ra Yellow says, stunned, “No joke! Mine was just checked an hour ago!” The Ra Yellow student asks, curiously, “We've got to see someone for this!”

 

The Obelisk Blue student says, with a sly grin, “You might have gotten off easy for now, but next time, you won't be so lucky!”

 

The Ra Yellow says, with a sly grin, “We'll see!” Soon after, the two of them head off to find what just happened with their duel disks.

 

(Somewhere within the Digital World; on the meanwhile)

 

Around the same time, deep within the Digital World, we find ourselves in a mysterious `palace' with walls and floors that make it look like the inside of the computer. Deep within the castle, we find six figures inside of it with five of the figures assembled around one of them and when we get a good look at them, we find that it is none other than Kaiba's step-father, Gozaburo Kaiba, and the Big Five, who tried to take the bodies of Yugi/Atem and the others to escape the Virtual World of Noah's to return to the Real World.

 

Nesbitt says, with a plain tone, “Finally, it is about time that we got this done.”

 

Johnson says, fixing his glasses, “Yes. Soon, justice will be served.”

 

Lector tells the two of them, “Don't count your chickens before they hatch gentlemen. Remember, we may have bodies, but they were created from the data of this `Digital World'.”

 

Gansley says, with a sly smile, “Through I must admit that this world does come with quite a lot of perks. If we knew about this, we would have incredible new business ventures and new kinds of workers to spend Kaiba Corporation into new heights.”

 

Gozaburo Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “Why just go for a measly company, Gansley? When we could have the whole world under our employ?” When the Big Five look at their `former' leader with stunned tones and Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Well, why not? We would be the most powerful men on this planet.”

 

Lector says, with a serious tone, “If I may, sir. We have a few problems with that plan. One, our bodies are not stable. If we go into the `Real World', they will de-stabilize and we will die.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a serious tone, “Well, we already figured out that we need people that travel between this world and the `Real World' in order to get what we need to stabilize our bodies to come into the `Real World' along with the new powers that we gained.”

 

Crump says, with a serious tone, “Well, sir, there is those group of mysterious kids, which have recently grown up, known as the Digidestined, people chosen by this world to defend both realms from evil from either world. And from the numbers, sir, with their ability to beat `super-powered' foes, the numbers don't look well in our favor.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “But if we disable their ability to get into this world and their ability to use their `partners', we will stand a better chance.”

 

Crump says, with a plain tone, “Well, the numbers will swing in our favor.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Plus, we have been demonstrating our power by doing what we are to Seto's little `Duel Academy'. I must admit through: Seto has stolen my empire from me, but he has built an impressive one of his own.” Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “But soon, I shall create an empire that his mind could never dream of. All we need to do is get what we need to finally be able to come and go between these worlds as we please.”

 

Lector tells Gozaburo, with a plain tone, “And we will, sir. We shall repay all that you gave us.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a serious tone, “You had better Lector. I gave you this second chance after you betrayed me for Seto to allow him to take over my company and after you failed my son around six times only because I need associates that I know. And I know that you have learned your lesson with Seto.”

 

Crump says, with a sly smile, “Don't worry, sir. The odds of us disappointing you this time are zero percent.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a plain tone, “Good. Now, you need to find my son. He has sent his data into Duel Academy's systems as well. Most likely, he is there to warn Seto and his `little friends'.”

 

The Big Five yell out in unison, “Yes, sir!” Immediately, the Big Five, through some kind of teleportation, vanish from Gozaburo's sight.

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Fools. They should learn that after you betray and fail me that you can't trust me. After they have done their job, I will make sure to rewrite their data to turn them into my complete obedient servants. And soon, Seto, I shall get my revenge on you as I become the most powerful being in two worlds.” Gozaburo smiles with a sinister smile as he begins his plans to rule two worlds: The Real and Digital Worlds.

 

(Back on Duel Academy; Sometime afterwards on that same morning)

 

Returning to the `Real World', we find our heroes and heroines assembled inside of Obelisk Arena with Chancellor Sheppard with Ami, Bastion, Izzy, Keiko, Kurama, and Washu looking over data that's being gathered together. It seems like Duel Disk and system malfunctions are wide-spread over the whole Academy and the GX tournament has been suspended until this problem is solved.

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Man! This time has advanced wonders, but when they go wrong, it seems like this world seems to go really nuts!”

 

Kagome says, with a plain tone, “Yes. It is the price that came with advancement Inuyasha.”

 

Bastion says, with a serious tone, “However, I've never seen so many malfunctions at once, but it seems like the hardware and software are in perfect working order.”

 

Ami says, with a curious tone, “However, there seems to be a strange anomaly in Duel Academy's software programs.”

 

Yusuke asks, curiously, “Is it a virus?”

 

Keiko says, with a plain tone, “If it is, it isn't a normal one.”

 

Joey says, with a plain tone, “No joke! Personally, with Kaiba's software, there is no way a regular virus would stand a chance. I mean if a regular virus tries to invade Kaiba's problems, it would get crushed instantly. Only something like a high-end job like Siegfried could cause such chaos and problems for Kaiba's mainframe and Kaiba has learned from those lessons and improved on them.”

 

Atem says, with a nod, “Other than Duel Monsters, Kaiba has done well with electronic and computer technology. He is the one that invented the Duel Disk after all.”

 

Izzy says, with a serious tone, “Well, if it is a virus of some sort, it is very strange. It keeps moving around from system to system and file to file, so, we can't track it properly.”

 

Tai asks, perplexed, “It's moving?!”

 

Nyoko asks, stunned, “Computer virus can't move, can they?”

 

Davis says, perplexed, “Not unless they are alive.”

 

TK says, with a sly smile, “Come on, Davis! Computer viruses can't come alive.”

 

Patamon tells TK, “Well, Diaboromon was kind of a computer virus since he was a Digimon that was created and altered by one.”

 

Gatomon says, with a serious tone, “That's different!”

 

Veemon says, with a plain tone, “But Patamon has a point, Gatomon. I mean, we, Digimon, are alive, but we are also computer data.”

 

Hawkmon says, amazed, “Wow! Veemon came up with something intelligent.”

 

Gatomon says, with a sly tone, “I guess that miracles happen when you are the partner to the Digidestined of Miracles.”

 

Veemon yells out, annoyed, “Hey! Gatomon!” Plenty of the other Digimon partners giggle in amusement while Veemon gives a child-like pout.

 

Erin says, with a plain tone, “I'm not sure that this is a computer virus. It seems to be moving around intelligently to be a virus.”

 

Alexis asks, curiously, “So, what is it?”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “I can tell you, dorks.” Everyone looks to the source to see Seto Kaiba and Mokuba walk into the arena.

 

Chancellor Sheppard says, with a serious tone, “Mister Kaiba, sir, what are you doing here?”

 

Kaiba says, with a plain tone, “To find our little `virus'. Your `help' won't be able to do anything about it since it isn't a virus at all.”

 

Jaden asks, perplexed, “It isn't a virus?”

 

Syrus asks, curiously, “Mister Kaiba, sir, if it isn't a virus, then what is it?”

 

Mokuba says, with a serious tone, “We believe that it is our step-brother, Noah.”

 

Tea, Joey, Tristan, and Yugi yell out in unison, shocked, “Noah!”

 

Tyranno asks, perplexed, “Who is that?”

 

Jun says, with a serious tone, “Cousin Yugi told us about this. Noah is the real son of Kaiba's and Mokuba's step-father, Gozaburo Kaiba.”

 

Davis says, with a plain tone, “However, while he was young, he had a nasty accident and his dad saved him by digitize his mind into a super-computer and creating a virtual world for him. However, believing that his son was too spoiled to be a real heir to his computer, he adopted Kaiba and Mokuba and training Kaiba to be his heir until Kaiba got enough shares to take control of the company from him. But before that, after he adopted Kaiba and Mokuba, he abandoned Noah in the Virtual World that he left him in.”

 

Kari says, stunned, “That's horrible.”

 

Joey says, with a snort, “Well, you might not think that way after what happened to us in that Virtual World of his.” Soon enough, Atem, Yugi, Tea, Joey, and Tristan explain about what happened in the Virtual World to the rest of our heroes and heroines.

 

When they were done, Nyoko says, amazed, “Wow! One of you was turned into a monkey!”

 

Tristan says, drolly, “Don't remind me.”

 

Zoe says, amazed tone in her voice, “Wow! I would be scared stiff if I went through something like that.”

JP says, with a nod, “No joke! That's incredible!”

 

Yugi says, with a plain tone, “Believe me, it wasn't easy. However, we managed to defeat the Big Five, Noah, help turn him in a better person, and defeat his father's sinister plans.”

 

Hikari asks, curiously, “So, you think that it is this Noah that causing problems?”

 

Mokuba says, with a plain tone, “We think that it is. We believed that he escaped through a backup correction or he made a backup of himself.”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, with a kind tone, “You would be right, Mokuba.” Soon after, the dueling platform roars to life as it creates an image of Noah as he was when Yugi and the others met him.

 

Atem says, amazed, “It's Noah!”

 

Mokuba says, excitedly, “Noah! I knew it! You made it!”

 

Noah says, with a nod, “Indeed. But believe me, it wasn't easy. Going through a backdoor that you created while your Virtual World was being destroyed wasn't an easy task. My data was quite scrambled and with the vast amount of intelligent that I gained before we met, it took this long for me to be restored enough to gain consciousness and believe me, I had also accident learned more during the past ten years and that made it more difficult since there was more data to `fix up' as you would say in simple terms.”

Kaiba states, with a snort, “Cut out the `sob story' and the technicalities and tell me what you are doing here?”

 

Noah says, with a sigh, “I see that your brother hasn't changed one bit, Mokuba.”

 

Kaiba yells out, annoyed, “Answer me, Noah! What are you doing roaming around my systems and causing such havoc?!”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “As much as I would like to admit that I was the one causing all of the chaos in your Duel Academy's systems, I'm not. There are others causing havoc and before you say anything, I'll tell you who it is. Do you remember the Big Five and my father?”

 

Kaiba yells out, stunned, “What?!”

 

Joey calls out, shocked, “You mean those five freaks that tried to take our bodies? I thought that they were deleted!”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “I thought so too. But it looks those rejects had more brains than I thought. I thought that I had stored them away deep in my virtual world and they were deleted along with my father when my Virtual World was destroyed. However, like me, they had a backdoor out of my world and the instant that I took my eyes off them, they used that time to escape even before I had launched the missiles.”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “Well, it looks like that your abilities aren't `all powerful' as you thought.”

 

Noah says, ignoring Kaiba's comment, “But the worse part is that my father managed to escape through the same backdoor that I made.”

 

Yugi, Atem, their friends, Kaiba, and Mokuba gasp in shock and Kaiba yells out, stunned, “You mean that snake managed to survive?!”

 

Noah says, with a nod, “Indeed. However, his data was greatly damaged compared to mine and it has taken a long time for restore himself to normal. However, in the `Cyber World' of the Internet and World Wide Web, they had managed to find a way into another world.”

 

Alexis asks, curiously, not liking this, “Another world?”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “A world that Yugi's cousins, Davis and Jun Motomiya, along with their friends know of: The Digital World.”

 

The Odiaba and Frontier Digidestined yell out in unison, “What?!”

 

TK says, stunned, “Those guys are in the Digital World?! I thought that only Digidestined like us could go into the Digital World.”

 

Noah says, with a serious tone, “The data containing my father and the Big Five was going through the internet and World Wide Web and this `Digital World' is made of digital information. So, it isn't beyond your imagination that they could get there that way.”

 

Izzy says, with a plain tone, “He has a point. But the defenses of the Digital World, thanks to what Oikawa did, should be strengthened.”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “However, the actions of the Society of Light damaged the Digital World's defenses Izzy.” Immediately, everyone looks to the source to see Gennai walk into the room.

 

Tai yells out, stunned, “Gennai!”

 

Matt asks, curiously, “What are you doing here?”

 

Gennai replies, “I am to provide my aid to you and as you know, Seto Kaiba's step-father and the people known as The Big Five have entered the Digital World through the World Wide Web.”

 

Kaiba yells out, annoyed, “Hey! Who are you? And how do you know me?”

 

Gennai says, plainly, “My name is Gennai. And I am member of the `Order', sort of a `protector' of the Digital World, through I advise the Digidestined, the protectors of the Digital World. And how I know you? Let's just say that I have my ways.”

 

Davis asks Gennai, curiously, “So, what can those six old geezers do?”

 

Gennai says, with a plain tone, “A lot since they used the Digital World's information to create new bodies for themselves.”

 

Plenty of gasps come from the room and Mokuba yells out, stunned, “Those old jerks have bodies now?!”

 

Gennai says, with a nod, “Indeed. And with the information from the Digital World, they have unique abilities based on Digimon special attacks.”

 

Joey asks, with a snort, “Oh, great! Those old jerks have got super-powers now?!”

 

Gennai says, with a plain tone, “Yes. And they have the ability to do a lot of damage to both worlds if they get their way. However, there is one piece of good news: Their new bodies are unstable, so, they must remain in the Digital World where their physical forms are data.”

 

Ken says, with a serious tone, “Well, they can't come here, but they can do a lot of damage in the Digital World.”

 

Gennai says, with a nod, “Yes. They are assembling a Digimon Army to conquer both worlds and plus, they have a way to make their bodies stable.”

 

Syrus asks, nervously, “How?”

 

Gennai says, with a nod, “They just need certain bits of data from people that have gone from the Digital and Real World.”

 

Davis says, drolly, “Namely Digidestined.”

Gennai says, with a nod, “That's right. And it isn't just experience Digidestined. It can be newcomers like Rei Hino or Serena Tsukino. If they capture you in the Digital World, since your bodies are turned into data when you pass through the Digital Gate, they can get the information that they need to make their bodies stable to come into the Real World and go between both worlds.”

 

Takuya yells out, strongly, “Well, we can't let them roam around the Digital World and let them do as they wish!”

 

Gennai says, with a serious tone, “Unfortunately, you would fall into their trap.”

 

Noah says, with a serious tone, “Well, fortunately, I have a plan to trap them.”

 

Kaiba asks, with a snort, “And why should we trust you, brat?”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “Well, I wish to make up for all that I've done and I hope that we can start over.”

 

Kaiba says, with a snort, “Good excuse.”

 

Serena says, standing up, “Well, I believe him.” Everyone looks at Serena and she says, “I can tell that he is telling the truth and he wishes to start over to make up for past mistakes.”

 

Kurama says, with a nod, “There is no deception in his voice.”

 

Joey asks, curiously, “Are you sure?”

 

Rei says, with a nod, “Yep. I can tell too. He doesn't mean to do any evil upon us.”

 

Amara asks, plainly, “So, what's this plan of yours?”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “It is risky, but we need to lure them into a trap.”

 

Yugi asks, curiously, “A trap?”

 

Noah says, with a serious tone, “Yes. In order to stop them, with their current forms as unstable data, we can store them away.”

 

Washu says, excitedly, “Brilliant! Since they are made of just information, they can be stored away and I can develop the containers for them.”

 

Noah asks, curiously, “You can?”

 

Washu says, with a sly and proud smile, “Sure can! You are talking to one of the greatest geniuses that this universe has ever known!”

 

Tenchi asks, curiously, “So, how do we get them into the trap?”

 

Joe says, plainly, “The only way that we can is to bring them someone that they want.”

 

Hikari says, plainly, “Basically, one of us in order to stabilize our bodies.”

 

Keiko says, with a nod, “That's right, Kari.”

 

Kari asks, curiously, “How are we going to lure them into a trap for us to entrap them?”

 

Washu says, with a sly grin on her lips, “I think that I may have an idea.”

Ryoko says, plainly, “Uh oh! I hope that this Kaiba guy has insurance paid up!”

 

Washu yells out, annoyed, “Well, do you have any bright ideas?”

 

Ryoko says, with a plain tone, “Simple. We go to the Digital World and duel the snot out of them.”

 

Washu says, with a sly smirk, “There is my point. Moving on…”

 

Ryoko yells out, annoyed, “Hey!”

 

Tenchi tells Ryoko, a bit sternly, “This isn't the time for this, Ryoko.”

 

Ryoko doesn't say a word and Erin asks Washu, “So, what's this idea of yours?”

 

Washu says, with a sly smile, “It is actually quite simple. We bring them to us.”

 

Keiko asks, perplexed, “Huh? Wait! They can't come to the `Real World', Washu!”

 

Washu says, with a sly grin, “Not without something to stabilize their bodies at least temporary. All we need to do is lure them into a trap that they cannot resist.” Soon enough, Washu starts to explain her plan to the others as they listen intently on what Washu wants to do.

 

(Back in the Digital World; Sometime soon after within Gozaburo's headquarters)

 

Within Gozaburo Kaiba's strange headquarters within the Digital World, he is looking over footage of what happened with his `former' step-son, Yugi, and the others in the Virtual World around ten years ago and he gives a look of annoyance.

 

Gozaburo says, with a serious tone, “I underestimated you and overestimated the power of my deck, Seto. However, this time, I won't make the same mistake. I have a deck that's far more powerful and when I defeat you this time, it will show my power over you, once and for all.”

 

Just then Lector appears and he says, with a bow, “Forgive the interruption, sir.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a plain tone, “What is it, Lector?”

 

Lector says, with a serious tone, “There seems to be a gateway to the Digital World to Duel Academy itself and there is a message for us.”

 

Gozaburo asks, with a serious tone, “A message?”

 

Lector says, with a plain tone, “Yes, sir.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a commanding tone, “Play it.”

 

Lector snaps his fingers and a screen with the image of Tai, Davis, Serena, and Yusuke appears with the image of Tai saying in a serious tone, “We know who you are and what you want, Gozaburo. However, if you think that you and the Big Five are going to get us easily, you are going to have to think again.”

 

Davis says, with a sly grin, “We already figured out ways to block you from causing more trouble at Duel Academy.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, “If you want to get our bodies to make sure yours are just fine, you need to play on our terms.”

 

Serena says, with a plain tone, “We have set up a virtual dueling field in Obelisk Arena in Duel Academy where your bodies won't be destroyed. We challenge you to a series of duels and if you win a duel, you will get one of us for what you need.”

 

Davis says, with a sly smile, “Well, are you corporate losers scared? By the way, the name is Daisuke Motomiya, cousin to Yugi Moto, the King of Games!”

 

Lector thinks in his mind, surprised, “What?! That boy is cousin to that Yugi brat?!”

 

Yusuke says, with a smile, “Come and get us if you dare!” Soon after, the screen goes blank and vanishes.

 

Gozaburo asks, with a serious tone, “So, those brats dare to challenge us, huh?”

 

Lector says, with a serious tone, “Sir, I would believe that it may be a trap…”

 

Gozaburo says, with a serious tone, “It is a trap, Lector! It is quite obvious!”

 

Lector says, with a serious tone, “So, are we going to force them to come to us?”

 

Gozaburo asks, curiously, “Is it true what they said?”

 

Lector says, with a nod, “There seems to be super-advanced security programs that just came on-line at Duel Academy and they are things that seem not of this world sir.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a curious tone, “And they might have ways to stop us, here.”

 

Lector asks, curiously, “Sir, you aren't thinking of tripping their trap?”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sinister sly grin, “Not without some `insurance'.”

 

Lector asks, curiously, “Insurance, sir?”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Something to tip the balance in our favor and make it quite fair for us as well.” Gozaburo tells Lector, with a serious tone, “Listen up, Lector! This is what I want you and the other members of the Big Five to do. And it will be worth the investment of time and power.” Soon after, Gozaburo starts to explain about his plans to Lector about what he wants them to do.

 

(Returning to Obelisk Arena; Sometime later)

 

Inside of Obelisk Arena, we find plenty of holographic and virtual generators set-up throughout the arena and our heroes and heroines assembled within the arena while Washu, Bastion, Ami, Izzy, and Keiko check them all.

 

Bastion says, with a nod, “Your holographic and virtual generators are quite excellent Washu.”

 

Washu says, with a sly smile, “What can I say? I am the greatest genius in the universe after all.”

 

Kaiba thinks in his mind, with a serious glare, “Who is this person? She looks like be like a little girl and yet, this holographic and virtual technology is more advanced than mine own! It is like that she isn't human…”

 

Ami asks Washu, with a curious tone, “So, these generators will create a `zone' where the Big Five and Gozaburo can come into the `Real World' without their bodies de-stabilizing?”

 

Washu says, with a nod, “And when they are here, they will have to duel on our terms and our tuff!”

 

Izzy asks, curiously, “So, when we duel them: Who will be the ones to duel them?”

 

Davis says, with a serious tone, “Since I'm Yugi's cuz, I think that they would want me as sort of a `payback' against them, but with my Neos and `Signer' decks, I can give them a butt whopping that they will never forget.”

 

Alexis says, with a serious tone, “I'll take on another one.”

 

Atticus yells out, in surprise, “No, Sissy! You can't!”

 

Alexis says, with a serious tone, “I can and I will. Besides, these corporate creeps might be tough, but I'm tougher. If they don't like it, tough.”

 

Alister says, with a sigh, “You are the same as my Sissy. When it comes to arguing with you, I will lose.”

 

Keiko says, with a sly grin, “You better believe it buster! I'll take one of them on!”

 

Yusuke says, with a serious tone, “Not with me, you aren't!”

 

Jaden says, with a sly grin, “And I'll be the last one! This is going to be sweet!”

 

Zane tells Jaden, with a dark plain tone, “You had better watch it, Jaden. They might be playing on our tuff, but there is still danger if we lose one.”

 

Syrus says, with a confident smile, “We won't be losing one, Zane! You watch!”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “I don't expect too. Washed out corporate businessmen against duelists like Jaden, Davis, and Yusuke? It is no contest.”

 

Hikari tells Yusuke and Keiko, “You had better be careful out there.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, “Don't worry, sis! We won't lose to them!”

 

Kira says, with a sly grin, “You had better not or both of you will be getting a `lecture' from me.”

 

Yusuke and Keiko sweatdrop nervously and Keiko says, with a nod, “Gotcha.”

 

Noah, inside of a portable floating holographic projector with his image coming out of the projector, says, with a serious tone, “Very incredible, Washu. Since incredible technology. It makes one thing that you aren't of this planet.”

 

Washu asks Noah, slyly, “What do you think?”

 

Noah says, with a plain tone, “With my vast knowledge, I have a lot of theories, but I will keep them to myself.”

 

Joey whispers to Yugi and Atem, “Knowing Noah, he already knows the answer.”

 

Atem says, with a nod and whisper, “Indeed. But he has come a long way since we met him. It seems like Mokuba did influence him.”

 

Yugi asks Atem, “Do you think that Noah can get a body of his own?”

 

Atem says, with a plain tone, “I'm not sure. Maybe he can one day.”

 

Kaiba says, with an annoyed tone, “When are we going to get on with this? I would like to get on with my life.”

 

Joey says, annoyed, “Hold your horses, rich boy!”

 

Sasuke says, with a plain tone, “We need to wait until they arrive.”

 

Kakashi says, with a plain tone, “It is a good idea that I posted guards with the security forces of Duel Academy to make sure that we aren't disturbed while this is going on.”

 

Sakura says, with a nod, “Yeah. The last thing that we need is someone coming and finding this.”

 

Naruto asks, curiously, “So, when do you think that those rotten creeps are going to get here?”

 

Just then Washu's holographic computer starts setting off alarms and Nyoko say, with a plain tone, “I think that's an indication.”

 

Erin says, with a plain tone, “Obviously, Nyoko.”

 

Washu says, looking at her screen, “And Nyoko is right. They are here. I'm activating the system.” Washu types on the buttons of her holographic computer and all of the holographic and virtual generations come to life and covering the whole of the arena in virtual sphere with several minutes.

 

Sora says, amazed, “Wow!”

 

Matt says, with a nod, “You said it Sora!”

 

Zoe says, amazed, “This is incredible!”

 

Tommy says, awe-struck, “Yeah!”

 

Jordan asks Celeste, with a confused tone when he sees her plain smile, “What is it, Celeste? Don't you think that this is amazing?”

 

Celeste says, with a smile, “Dad. I come from Rini's time. This kind of holographic technology is common from where and when I'm from.”

 

Jordan says, with a nervous tone, “Oh.”

 

Jade asks, with a serious tone, “Where are those guys?”

 

Davis yells out, with a serious tone, “Yeah! I want to get these duels started!”

 

Just then some sinister laughs are heard all around and a familiar male voice yells out, “Okay, junior, if you really insist!”

 

Tea says, shocked, “I know that laugh!” Immediately, the Big Five and Gozaburo appear on the scene and all of them have sinister smiles on their lips.

 

Lector says, with a sinister smile, “It has been a long time, Seto.”

 

Kaiba says, with his usual snobbish tone, “Not long enough for me, Lector.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Well, it seems like you haven't changed a bit Seto.”

 

Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “Neither have you, you snake.”

 

Crump says, while looking at our heroes and heroines, “Well, kiddies, you called us out here! What's up?!”

 

Washu says, pushing a button, “Nothing much!” Just then a light red aura goes through the whole virtual area.

 

Nesbitt yells out, perplexed, “What did you just do?”

 

Bastion says, with a serious tone, “You are all trapped here! Thanks to the security measures that we put in place in this `pocket virtual world', you are trapped here unless one of you wins a duel.”

 

Johnson says, with a stunned tone, “That's not fair.”

 

Joey says, with a sly grin, “After what you jokers did, it is very fair! And don't think that you can smooth talk out of this one, Johnson!”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “The rules of our `little tournament' are simple. Win and you get a body to use to find a way to stabilize your bodies.”

 

Lector asks, curiously, “And if we lose?”

 

Noah says, with a serious tone, “Simple, you fool. You get into a special virtual prison that Washu and I created.” Washu takes out a small cube and Noah says, with a serious tone, “It is self-contained with no access into the `Cyber World' or the `Digital World'. To be fair, you can modify your prison as much as you wish, but we made sure that's all you can do.”

 

Gansley yells out, flabbergasted, “What?!”

 

Crump calls out, “That's not fair!”

 

Jade asks, with a sly smile, “Do you want to be sent in right away?!” However, as the Big Five were quite panicky, Gozaburo conceals a sly smile that's noticed by Kurama, Hiei, and Kaiba.

 

Hiei thinks in his mind, curiously, “Why is he smiling?”

 

Kaiba thinks in his mind, suspiciously, “I don't like the way that he is smiling. He is up to something.”

 

Kurama thinks in his mind, suspiciously, “Why could he be smiling? Does he have some kind of trick up his sleeve?”

 

Johnson says, with a sly smile, “Fine! We'll duel as long as we use our Deck Master rules!”

 

Davis says, with a sly smile, “Actually, we were planning to do that! Just to make thing fair!” Soon enough, Davis, Alexis, Yusuke, Keiko, and Jaden come down for the duels and Davis says, putting his 5ds duel disk on his left wrist, “So, who's first?” Soon after, the duel disk attached to his left wrist and Davis puts his dueling deck inside.

 

Gansley says, stepping forward, “I shall go first.” Just then an Academy Duel Disk attaches to his left wrist and series of cards appears in front of him.

 

Davis says, with a sly smile, “We will use our usual decks while you get to use either a deck that you created or one created from this card database from every single card made.”

 

Gansley says, with a plain tone, “As you wish.” Immediately, Gansley immediately picks the cards for his deck and when he is done, his new dueling deck appears within his duel disk.

 

Davis says, with a plain tone, “And as you know, we need to choose a Deck Master for our duel and I choose my Elemental Hero Bladedge!” Immediately, Elemental Hero Bladedge (2600/1800) appears by Davis' right side.

 

Gansley says, with a sly grin, “And I will choose this: My Deepsea Warrior! A strong investment!” Just then Deepsea Warrior (1600/1800) appears by Gansley's right side. Soon after, the two of them activate their duel disks with Davis' duel disk automatically shuffling his deck, their life-point counters display 4000 life-points each, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

Davis and Gansley yell out in unison, “Let's duel!”

 

Starting Scores:

Davis: 4000

Gansley: 4000

 

As the duel starts, Kari thinks in her mind, concerned, “Be careful, Dai-kun.”

 

Yugi thinks in his mind, seriously, “You need to be careful, Davis. These corporate tycoons can't be trusted!”

 

Gansley says, drawing a card from his deck, “Okay, junior, allow me to show you how it's done in the dueling business! My draw!” Gansley says, putting one card on his duel disk, “I shall begin with one monster card face-down!” After a hologram of a face-down monster appears on the field, Gansley says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “I shall place two more cards face-down and defer to my opponent.”

 

Atem says, seriously, “Hold on. That move is familiar.”

 

Yugi says, with a nod, “Yeah. It looks like the move that he used on us, Atem.”

 

Davis says, drawing one card, “My turn! Draw!” Davis says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Sorry, pal, but I play my Nobleman of Crossout spell card! This card removes one face-down monster from play and since you only have one!” Soon after, the face-down monster is sliced in half, which a transparent image of an Ashinigray (500/500) monster card, and Davis says, seriously, “And since it is a Flip monster, you must remove the monsters from your deck that's the same that I just removed from the field.”

 

Two cards come out of Gansley's deck, he puts them out of play, and he says, with a sly smile, “Nice job. It seems that you have a bit of business skill after all, but that was only a test.”

 

Davis says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Whatever you say, but for me, Elemental Hero Bubbleman is coming to the field in attack mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Bubbleman (800/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Davis says, drawing two cards, “And since he is on the field alone, I can draw two more cards!” Davis says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play Polymerization!” Davis discards his Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000) and Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) monster cards to the graveyard and he calls out, as he takes a fusion monster card from his Extra deck, “Now, I combine my Avian and Sparkman with my Bubbleman to form… Elemental Hero Tempest!” Avian and Sparkman appear on the field, go into a fusion vortex with Bubbleman, and when Davis puts the fusion monster card on his duel disk, Elemental Hero Tempest (2800/2800) comes out of the vortex in attack mode. Davis yells out, strongly, “Tempest, direct attack with Glider Strike!” Tempest fires a beam of blue energy from his right arm cannon right at Gansley.

 

Gansley pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, “Sorry, boy, but I play my Waboku trap card!” Gansley's face-down card is revealed to be the Waboku trap card and a trio of maidens appear to protect Gansley from Tempest's attack causing him to say with a sly grin, “Thanks to this card, all damage from your monsters become zero for this turn. Such poor business planning my boy. You should have invested on spell and trap destroying cards for this case.”

 

Davis says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I play Mirage of Nightmare!” Davis then puts the last two cards in his hand into the spell/trap slots and says, “And I throw down two face-downs to end my turn!”

 

Gansley says, drawing one card, “My move!”

 

Davis says, drawing four cards from his deck, “And thanks to Mirage of Nightmare, it is my draw since I get four more cards since it is your Standby Phase!” Davis says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Then I play my Emergency Provision spell card!” Davis' face-down card is revealed to be the Emergency Provision Quick-Play spell card and Davis says, “Thanks to this card, I gain one thousand life-points for every one of my spell and trap cards that I get rid of. So, Adios, Mirage of Nightmare!” The hologram of the Mirage of Nightmare continuous spell card vanishes and Davis' life-points increase by 1000 more points.

 

Gansley says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Not bad, but I play my Jar of Greed!” Gansley's face-down card is revealed to be the Jar of Greed trap card and he says, with a sly grin, “This wise investment gives me an extra card from my deck.” The Field Spell slot of his duel disk opens up and he says, putting a card in it, “As well as this! I play a Field Spell: A Legendary Ocean!” Immediately, the field transforms into an underwater field with a sunken city inside of it. Gansley then says, putting one card on his duel disk, “This card lowers the stars of all Water by monsters by one, so, I can play my Orca Mega-Fortress of Darkness without a sacrifice!” Immediately, Orca Mega-Fortress of Darkness (2100/1200) appears on the field in attack mode. Gansley says, with a serious tone, “Plus, he gains an extra two hundred attack and defense points, thanks to my field spell!” Just then Orca's stats rise from 2100/1200 to 2300/1400!

 

Davis says, seriously, “Well, it is nowhere near my monster!”

 

Gansley says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “You should know better, boy! I play Double Summon spell card! This card allows me to summon another monster!” Gansley puts one card on his duel disk and yells out, “And I choose my Torpedo Fish!” Just then Torpedo Fish (1000/1000-1200/1200) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Bastion says, stunned, “Oh, dear! I remember this move! Jaden had it used on him before! His Orca can destroy one monster on the field by getting rid of his Torpedo Fish!”

 

TK says, worriedly, “That's not good.”

 

Gansley shouts out, “I release my Torpedo Fish to get rid of your winged friend!” Torpedo Fish is absorbed into Orca and it fires it like a torpedo into Tempest causing him to be destroyed in a huge explosion.

 

Davis yells out, stunned, “Tempest!”

 

Gansley calls out, strongly, “Bad investment on not getting protector for your monster, boy! Now, direct attack!” Orca fires a beam of energy from cannon that come out of its mouth.

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Sorry, pal, I play my Negate Attack trap!” Davis' face-down card is revealed to be the Negate Attack trap card and Davis becomes protected by a shield.

 

Gansley says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I shall end my turn with one card face-down.”

 

Current Score:

Davis: 5000

Gansley: 4000

 

Davis says, drawing one card from his deck, “It's my turn! Draw!” Davis puts one card on his duel disk and he yells out, “I play my Elemental Hero Wildheart in attack mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) appears on the field in attack mode. Davis says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Block Attack spell card! Thanks to this card, your overgrown whale switches from attack mode to defense mode!” Immediately, Orca switches from attack mode to defense mode.

 

Gansley says, with a sly smile, “No matter. It is in defense mode so my life-points are safe.”

 

Davis says, with a sly grin, “Expect that my Deck Master's special ability allows all Elemental Hero to have piercing damage. Namely, if my monster has more attack points than your monster's defense points, the difference is taken out of your life-points!” Gansley gasps in shock and Davis calls out, “Wildheart, take out his overgrown whale!” Wildheart leaps into the air, slices Orca apart, and Gansley yells out as he loses 100 life-points. Davis says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, “Next, I throw down a couple of face-downs and call it a turn!”

 

Current Score:

Davis: 5000

Gansley: 3900

 

Gansley says, drawing a card, “It's my move, brat!” Gansley says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Perfect, I summon Ipiria in attack mode!” Just then Ipiria (500/500) comes to the field in attack mode and Gansley says, drawing a card, “And by being summoned, Ipiria gives me one more card!” Gansley puts the card into the spell/trap slots and he yells out, “And it shall help me greatly since I gained Card of Sanctity! This card forces both of us to draw until we have six cards and it shall be a wise investment!” Both Davis and Gansley draw from their decks until they have six cards in their hands each. Gansley says, putting a card into the spell/trap slots, “Next, I shall play my Shallow Grave! This card allows both of us to revive one of our former monsters! And I choose my Orca!” Just then Orca Mega-Fortress of Darkness (2100/1200-2300/1400) comes back to the field in defense mode.

 

Davis says, with a serious tone, “And I choose my Sparkman!” Immediately, Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) returns to the field in defense mode.

 

Joey asks, perplexed, “What's he up to?”

 

Yugi says, with a serious tone, “His Deck Master ability allows him to reflect an attack right back on a opponent when his opponent launches an attack on one of his monsters as long as he sacrifices two monsters on his field.”

 

TK says, seriously, “And Gansley has two now.”

 

Ken says, seriously, “That's not good.”

 

Gansley says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “And I shall end with one card face-down.”

 

Davis says, drawing one card from his deck, “My turn draw!” Davis says, putting one card in the spell/trap slot, “And I play my second Polymerization!” Davis discards his Elemental Hero Clayman (800/2000) monster card to the graveyard and he says, with a serious tone, “I fuse my Sparkman with my Clayman in order to form…!” Clayman comes onto the field, goes into a fusion vortex with Sparkman, and when Davis puts a fusion monster card from his Extra deck, he yells out, “Elemental Hero Thunder Giant!” Out of the vortex, Elemental Hero Thunder Giant (2400/1500) comes to the field in attack mode. Davis says, discarding Elemental Hero Necroshade (1600/1800) monster card from his hand, “By discarding one card from my hand, any monster with fewer original attack points than my Thunder Giant's attack points is blown away! Take out his Orca with Static Blast!” Thunder Giant unleashes a blast of powerful electric energy that vaporizes Orca. Davis yells out, strongly, “Okay, Thunder Giant, take out his Ipiria!” Thunder Giant unleashes another blast of electric energy right at Ipiria.

 

Gansley says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Wrong, boy! I play my Call of the Haunted trap card!” Gansley's face-down card is revealed to be the Call of the Haunted continuous trap card and Gansley says, with a sly grin, “And now, I can revive one of my former monsters including Torpedo Fish!” Just then Torpedo Fist (1000/1000-1200/1200) returns to the field in attack mode.

 

Bastion yells out, shocked, “And now, he can play his Deck Master's special ability!”

 

Gansley says, with a sly smile, “That's right! I release my two monsters in order to play my Reflector Hole!” The two monsters vanish from the field and a large hole appears in front of Gansley to absorb the attack in which another hole appears in front of Davis and he cries out as he is slammed by Thunder Giant's attack causing him to lose 2400 life-points.

 

Kari yells out, worriedly, “Dai-kun!”

 

Davis yells out, strongly, “Yeah! But you left yourself wide open! Direct Attack!” Wildheart immediately charges Gansley and he yelps as he is sliced in the chest by Wildheart's sword causing him to lose 1500 life-points.

 

Gansley says, with a sly grin while putting a card on his duel disk, “Sorry, but you allowed me to play my Ruklamba the Spirit King in attack mode!” Immediately, Ruklamba the Spirit King (1000/2000) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Takuya yells out, annoyed, “Hey! He can't do that!”

 

Koji says, with a plain tone, “Yes, he can. Since he lose over a thousand life-points, he can special summon that monster from his hand.”

 

JP says, nervously, “That's not good.”

 

Yolei says, worriedly, “For Davis anyway.”

 

Davis says, with a plain tone, “I'll end here.”

 

Current Score:

Davis: 1600

Gansley: 2400

 

Gansley says, drawing a card, “It's my turn!” Gansley says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play Pot of Greed! This gives me two more cards!” Gansley then draws two more cards from his deck and he says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Next, I play my Yowie in attack mode!” Just then Yowie (500/500) comes to the field in attack mode and Gansley says, with a sly grin, “And thanks to its ability, since it was summoned, you must skip your next Draw Phase! Well, it looks like you are diving deeper into debt!” Gansley says, with a sly grin, “And I'll due more thanks to my Spirit King's ability! By releasing him, I can summon as many monsters from my hand with two thousand attack points or less!” Ruklamba vanishes from the field and Gansley says, putting three new cards on his duel disk, “So, I play another Ruklamba, Wall of Illusion, and Legendary Fishman!” Immediately, another Ruklamba the Spirit King (1000/2000), Wall of Illusion (1000/1850), and The Legendary Fisherman (1850/1000) appear on the field in attack mode. Gansley says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “And I shall end with one card face-down.”

 

Davis says, not drawing a card due Yowie's ability, “My move!”

 

Matt says, nervously, “This isn't good. All that jerk needs is two monsters to play his Deck Master's ability and he has four now!”

 

Gansley says, with a sly grin, “That's right! And I think that your friend is finished!”

 

Davis says, with a sly grin while putting a card on his duel disk, “Not quite! You see, I didn't want to play anymore cards until I know what you had next up your dirty sleeve, but now, all I need to end this duel is right in my hand!”

 

Gansley yells out, strongly, “You lie!”

 

Davis says, with a sly grin, “Check it out! Thanks to Necroshade's ability, I can summon an Elemental Hero without a sacrifice! And I choose my Elemental Hero Neos!” Immediately, Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Gansley calls out, perplexed, “I never heard of such a monster!”

 

Davis says, putting one card in his spell/trap slots, “Well, if you like that, then you will like my E to N Shuffle! Thanks to this spell card, I can switch out one of my heroes for a Neo-Spacian!”

 

Gansley asks, perplexed, “Neo what?”

 

Davis says, with a sly grin, “Neo-Spacian! Get with the times! So, I return my Wildheart back to my deck!” Immediately, Wildheart vanishes as he returns to his card, Davis returns the card to his deck, and he takes another card from his deck. After he returns his deck to his duel disk, he puts the card on his duel disk and calls out, “And I choose my Neo-Spacian Glow Moss!” Just then Neo-Spacian Glow Moss (300/900) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Gansley asks, perplexed, “What is that?!”

 

Davis says, with a serious tone, “It is your end, pal! Neos! Glow Moss! Contact Fusion!” The outer space theme appears in the skies and the two monsters leap into the sky causing Davis to say, “If you didn't get the memo, Contact Fusion is when Neos and a Neo-Spacian combine together. And this type of Fusion doesn't need Polymerization since it only requires me to put the Fusion Material monsters back in my deck!” Gansley gasps in stunned silence as the two monster cards are returned to Davis' deck and the two monsters are engulfed in a bright light as they combine. Davis takes out a fusion monster card from his Extra deck and he yells out, putting the fusion monster card on his deck, “Meet Elemental Hero Glow Neos!” Out of the bright light, Elemental Hero Glow Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode. Davis says, with a sly grin, “By the way, did you know that my Glow Neos comes with a cool party trick? He can destroy any card on your side of the field and when he is done, he can use one of his special abilities.”

 

Gansley gasps in shock and he yells out, “No!”

 

Davis yells out, strongly, “That's right! Neos, destroy his Legendary Ocean!” Glow Neos launches a series of spheres at Gansley's duel disk causing a strong explosion and then the field returns to its original state causing Davis to say, seriously, “And since he destroyed a spell card, Glow Neos can by-pass your monsters and attack you directly!”

 

Gansley says, stunned, “No! My Deck Master can't protect me from direct attacks and my trap card is useless without my ocean!”

 

Davis calls out, with a sly smile, “That's right! Now, Neos, attack him directly and end this duel!” Immediately, Glow Neos leaps up into the air and charges pass Gansley's monster slamming his attack into Gansley causing him to cry out as he loses 2500 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

Johnson says, stunned, “What?! That's not legal!”

 

Kakashi says, with a plain tone, “You agreed to this, so, it is `legal'.”

 

Joey says, with a snort, “Well, you shouldn't talk since you cheated in our duel Johnson!”

 

Crump says, with a snort, “Fine! I'm going next and I won't lose to some kids!”

 

Alexis says, stepping forward, “I don't think so! You didn't beat Tea-sempai when she was rookie and I'm the top duelist of my dorm!”

 

Crump yells out, with a snarl, “Do you think I care little girl? And besides, you aren't one of the Digidestined! So, why should I duel you?”

 

Tai says, with a serious tone, “Because if she loses, you still get one of us!”

 

Crump says, with a sly grin, “Okay. I like those odds.” On the meanwhile, a duel disk appears on Crump's left wrist and he chooses the cards for his deck while Alexis puts her deck into an Academy duel disk attached to her left wrist. When his dueling deck appears in his duel disk, Crump yells out, strongly, “And I've already chosen my Deck Master: Nightmare Penguin!” Immediately, Nightmare Penguin (900/1800) comes to Crump's right side.

 

Alexis yells out, strongly, “And I choose my Cyber Angel Idaten!” Cyber Angel Idaten (1600/2000) appears by Alexis' right side. The two of them activate their duel disks, their life-point counters display 4000 life-points for each duelist, and they draw five cards from their decks.

Atticus yells out, excitedly, “Come on, Sissy! You can beat this overgrown chicken!”

 

Alexis thinks in her mind, annoyed, “When is Atti going to stop with this `Sissy' nonsense?”

 

Kagome and Keiko think at the same time, “I feel her pain!” Immediately, the two of them glare at their `elder' siblings and the two of them become nervous at their glares.

 

Sanosake and Alister think at the same time, nervously, “What did we do this time?”

 

Alexis says, putting one card on her duel disk, “I summon my Cyber Gymnast in defense mode!” Cyber Gymnast (800/1800) comes to the field in defense mode and Alexis says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “I'll end my turn with two cards face-down.”

 

Crump says, drawing one card from his deck, “It's my turn!” Crump says, with a sly grin, “You see, my dear, we accountants are a cautious bunch and we tend not to rush into anything without the numbers to support. And my calculations tell me that there is a ninety-five percent chance that your face-downs are traps.”

 

Alexis thinks in her mind, drolly, “Just great.”

 

Crump says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, my Cold Wave spell card will freeze all spell and trap cards for one turn!” Just then a freezing wind comes over the field and Alexis' face-down cards were frozen. Crump says, putting a card on his duel disk, “Next, I play this: My Abyss Soldier in attack mode!” Abyss Soldier (1800/1300) appears on the field in attack mode and Crump says, with a sly grin, “And thanks to my Deck Master's ability, he gains two hundred more attack since my Nightmare Penguin raises the power of all Water monsters on my field by that number and it is number that you can't argue with!” Abyss Soldier's stats rise from 1800/1300 to 2000/1300 and Crump yells out, “Attack my soldier!” Immediately, Abyss Soldier charges in and impales Cyber Gymnast causing her to be destroyed, but since she was in defense mode, Alexis doesn't lose any life-points. Crump says, with a sinister sly grin, “I think that's all for now.” Afterwards, Alexis' face-down cards were unfrozen since the effects of Cold Wave are done.

 

Alexis says, drawing one card from her deck, “It's my move!” Alexis says, putting one card on her duel disk, “I summon my Cyber Tutu in attack mode!” Immediately, Cyber Tutu (1000/800) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Crump laughs at this and he says, with a taunting tone, “What's your `little doll' going to do? Perform a little show for me? Ha!”

 

Alexis says, with a sly smile, “Well, I will be the one who's laughing since you don't have a monster that has less attack points than my little dancer allowing my dancer to attack you directly!”

 

Crump yells out, perplexed, “Huh?!”

 

Alexis calls out, strongly, “Tutu, show him! Attack directly!” Soon after, Cyber Tutu spins around, passes Crump's monster, and hits him in the chest with a direct attack causing him to lose 1000 life-points.

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Nice work, Lex!”

 

Alexis says, with a smile, “Thanks, Jay!” Alexis tells Crump, with a sly smile, “I think that's all for now.”

Crump says, with a sly grin, “Not bad. I think that you have more talent than when I dueled Tea, but you will lose all the same!” Crump says, drawing a card, “My move, kiddy!” Crump says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “First, I play my Pot of Greed! Which gives me two more cards and that's a number that will get you shaking!” Crump draws two more cards, gives a sinister smile, and he says, putting a card on his duel disk, “Next, I sacrifice my Abyss Soldier to summon my Defender Iceberg!” Abyss Soldier vanishes and Defender Iceberg (0/2450-200/2450) comes to the field in defense mode.

 

Sanosake yells out, stunned, “Whoa! That's huge!”

 

Yolei says, amazed, “It is like a giant iceberg!”

 

Crump says, with a sly smile, “That's right! An iceberg with over two thousand four hundred defense points! Plus, as long as it remains on the field, she can't target any of my other monsters for an attack! Plus, with only two hundred attack points, thanks to my Deck Master, she can't use her little dancer to attack me anymore!”

 

Alexis thinks in her mind, “That's not good! I need to get rid of that overgrown ice cube or I'm in real trouble!”

 

Crump says, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, “And to increase my chances for victory, I play my Double Summon! This card allows me to summon another monster and I choose my Penguin Torpedo!” Immediately, Penguin Torpedo (550/300-750/300) comes to the field in attack mode. Crump states, with a sly smile, “Oh, by the way, did I tell you that he can attack directly?” Alexis gasps as Penguin Torpedo rockets towards her, bypassing her monster, and she yelps out as the monster explodes causing her to lose 750 life-points.

 

Atticus, Jasmine, Mindy, and Jaden yell out in unison, shocked, “Alexis!”

Crump says, drawing a card, “My turn now!” Crump says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “I play my face-down: Ocean of Regeneration!” Crump's face-down card is revealed to be the Ocean of Regeneration continuous spell card and he says, with a sly grin, “Now, I can summon one Water monster that has one thousand attack points or less for one turn and I choose my Penguin Torpedo!” Just then Penguin Torpedo (550/300-750/300) returns to the field in attack mode.

 

Alexis says, drolly, “Oh, great.”

Crump yells out, strongly, “Fire!” Penguin Torpedo launches right at Alexis, bypassing her monsters, and exploding when it hits her directly causing her to yelp as she loses 750 life-points and Crump says, with a sly smile, “I think that's enough damage for now.” Crump thinks in his mind, looking at the Mobius the Frost Monarch (2400/1000) monster card in his hand, “This is perfect! I've got myself defended easily with my Defender Iceberg. When she is done with her turn, I will sacrifice him to bring him out and destroy her face-down cards! Then I will use my face-down Meteor Rain to take a major chunk of her life-points! The numbers all add up and I shall be closer to gaining a permanent body of my own!”

 

Current Score:

Crump: 3000

 

Alexis says, drawing one card from her deck, “My move!” Alexis says, giving a sly smile, “You think that you have gotten me beat, huh? Well, you are about to get a reality check, pal!”

 

Crump says, with a serious tone, “Go ahead!”

 

Alexis says, putting a card on her duel disk, “I release my Cyber Valkyrie and Cyber Tutu to summon Ice Queen in attack mode!” Cyber Valkyrie and Cyber Tutu vanish and Ice Master (2900/2100) comes to the field in attack mode. Alexis says, with a serious tone, “Now, I play its ability! By paying five hundred life-points, I gain control of one of your Water monsters for this turn!”

 

Crump yells out, shocked, “No!” Alexis' life-points drop by 500 life-points and Defender Iceberg switches from Crump's field to Alexis' field causing its stats to drop from 200/2450 to 0/2450. Crump yells out, stunned, “Wait a minute! This doesn't add up!”

 

Alexis says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “Oh, it is quite fair! And I play my Call of the Haunted trap card!” Alexis' face-down card is revealed to be Call of the Haunted continuous trap card and Alexis calls out, “And I choose to revive my Cyber Valkyrie!” Immediately, Cyber Valkyrie (1300/1500) returns to the field in attack mode. Alexis calls out, strongly, “And now, Ice Queen and Cyber Valkyrie! Show him the true meaning the `cold shoulder' with a double direct attack!” Both monsters launch freezing attacks on Crump and he cries out as they slam into him with terrific force causing him to lose 4200 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

Jaden tells Alexis, excitedly, “Great job, Lex!”

 

Alexis says, with a smile, “Thanks, Jay.” Alexis goes over to her boyfriend, kisses him on the right cheeks, and she says, “You had better win your duel, Jay!”

 

Nesbitt tells Johnson, with a serious tone, “You had better not lose this one Johnson!”

 

Johnson says, adjusting his glasses, “Don't worry, Nesbitt. This one is in the bag.” Soon after, Johnson steps forward to meet Yusuke, who puts his 5ds Duel Disk to his left wrist causing it to attached to his left wrist, while putting in his dueling deck.

 

Mokuba says, with a sly smile, “Those new Duel Disk are great, Seto!”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “Yes. I keep amazing even myself. And who better to test them then the top students of my school? The `Solid Vision' system shall take holographic dueling to a new level where you don't satellites and stuff to help with holographic dueling. All the hologram technology is in the duel disk itself and it puts a new set of realism that not even my current models match up to. Plus, with the ability to modify older duel disks with the new Solid Vision technology and easily mass-produced customized Duel Disks, I shall have an empire that will overshadow his step-father's empire for ages to come. History won't remember him for a long time.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a snarl, “We shall see, Seto!”

 

Johnson gains an Academy Duel Disk on his left wrist and he says, as he starts to pick his cards, “Well, if it isn't the `Great Urameshi'? Why did they someone like you into a school like this?”

 

Yusuke says, with an annoyed tone, “Let me guess: You looked up my files right?”

 

Johnson says, with a sly tone, “Of course! Any lawyer on either side must look up the information needed for a case and I made sure to read yours extensively. And believe me, when I am done, you will be declared guilty of poor dueling and have the harshest sentence passed on you!” When Johnson's deck appears in his duel disk, he says, “And my Deck Master will help me get you there!

Johnson says, drawing one card, “The prosecution shall start off this duel.” Johnson says, putting one card on his duel disk, “I'll summon my Mystical Elf in defense mode!” Immediately, Mystical Elf (800/2000) comes to the field in defense mode. Johnson says, with a sly smile, “And I'll end with one card face-down.”

 

Yusuke says, drawing one card, “Okay, wise guy, it's my turn!” Yusuke says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll start off with my Graceful Charity! I draw three cards and discard two from my hand!” Yusuke draws three cards from his deck and discards two from his hand. Yusuke says, putting another card in the spell/trap slots, “I play my Silent Doom spell card! This card allows me to revive one monster in my grave in defense mode! And I think I'll choose the Red-Eyes Black Dragon that I put there thanks to Graceful Charity!” Immediately, Red-Eyes Black Dragon (2400/2000) comes to the field in defense mode.

 

Johnson says, with a sly grin, “It's going to take more than that to stop me.”

 

Yusuke says, putting one more card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, my Trap Booster might tell another story. By discarding one card from my hand, I can use one trap card from my hand!” Yusuke discards one card from his hand, puts another card from his hand into the spell/trap slots, and an image of a trap card with a picture of a duelist behind two black amphibian-like creatures with confetti all around appears causing Yusuke to say, “And I play my Revival Gift trap card! This card allows me to a special kind of monster from my grave. It is known as a Tuner monster!”

 

Johnson asks, perplexed, “A what?!”

 

Yusuke yells out, with a sly grin, “Let me show by bringing back my Sinister Sprocket!” Immediately, Sinister Sprocket (400/0) appears on the field in attack mode and Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “And you get a gift from me in return! Two `Gift Fiend Tokens'!” Just then two Gift Fiend Tokens (1500/1500), the same black amphibian creatures from the picture on the trap card, appears on Johnson's field in defense mode. Yusuke yells out, strongly, “And now, I tune my level one Sinister Sprocket with my level seven Red-Eyes Black Dragon! Go, Synchro Summon!”

 

Johnson yells out, stunned, “Synchro what? I abject!” On the meanwhile, Sinister Sprocket turns into a star which turns into a ring that surrounds Red-Eyes Black Dragon making him turn transparent.

 

Yusuke says, with a serious tone, “Your abjection has been overruled! These are some of Pegasus' newest Duel Monsters and I happen to have one!” Yusuke then takes a Synchro Monster card from his Extra deck and chants out, “The ruler's heartbeats will now file through here! Take witness to its creation-shaking power!” Yusuke puts the Synchro Monster card on his duel disk and yells out, as a column of light appears behind him, “Okay, bud, time to witness the power of my Red Dragon Archfiend!” Out of the light, Red Dragon Archfiend (3000/2000) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Just then Davis', TK', Keiko's, and Serena's right arms to start glow as their `Marks of the Dragon' are shown on their right arms along with Yusuke and Serena thinks in her mind, plainly, “Here we go!”

 

Mokuba says, amazed, “Incredible! So, that's one of Pegasus' new Synchro Monsters!”

 

Kaiba says, with a plain tone, “I've got to admit that Pegasus finally came up with someone good for a change.”

 

Yusuke says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play my Mystical Space Typhoon to take down your face-down!” Johnson gasps as a whirlwind appears on the field and destroys his face-down card. Yusuke says, putting the last card in his hand into the spell/trap slots, “And now, I play my Card of Sanctity! So, both of us must draw from our decks until we have six cards in our hands!” Yusuke and Johnson draw from their decks until they have six cards in their hands. Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “By the way, did you know that my Red Dragon Archfiend can destroy all defense position monsters when it destroys one in battle?” Johnson gasps in shock and Yusuke yells out, “Go, Absolute Power Force!” Red Dragon Archfiend launches its flaming right claw right at Mystical Elf.

 

Johnson calls out, with a sly smile, “I don't think so, Urameshi! Activate Deck Master Ability: Clear the Courtroom!”

 

Joey says, with a snarl, “Not this! This isn't good!”

 

Johnson says, with a sly grin, “I give up one thousand life-points in order to get rid of all of your monsters!” Johnson's life-points drop by 1000 and the sound of a gravel is heard causing Johnson to say, with a sly grin, “Precede your honor: Prosecute his monster to the full extent of the law!” Soon after, Red Dragon Archfiend vanishes from the field.

 

Kira yells out, stunned, “That was one of Yusuke's strongest monsters!”

 

Johnson says, with a sly smile, “By the way, for every monster that I crush, you lose five hundred life-points! I must have lost more life-points than you, but it cost you one of your best monsters!” Johnson starts to laugh as Yusuke's life-points drop by 500 points.

 

Yusuke then gives a sly smirk and he says, with a sly tone, “For someone about to lose this duel, you shouldn't be laughing bud.”

 

Johnson stops laughing and he says, with a snort, “Ha. Stop trying to bluff me kid.”

 

Yusuke says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “It's no bluff. I knew about your Deck Master's ability. In fact, I was counting on it! But let my cards do the talking! I play my Dark Spell Regeneration! This Quick-Play spell allows me to play any spell card in the grave for one turn and I choose my Trap Booster! So, I discard one card from my hand to play one trap card from my hand!” Yusuke discards one card from his hand, puts another card in his hand, and an image of a trap card with a picture of dragon-type monster sending waves of energy toward something or someone. Yusuke yells out, “And I choose to play my Cosmic Blast trap card! When a Dragon-type Synchro Monster is removed from the field, you lose life-points equal to attack points of my monster!”

 

Many gasp in shock and Kurama says, with a sly smile, “Red Dragon Archfiend had three thousand attack points and Johnson had only that same amount.”

 

Hikari yells out, excitedly, “That means that this duel is over!”

 

Johnson calls out, in total disbelief, “No! How can this be?! How could I be beaten by a delinquent like you?! This is impossible!” Just then an image of Red Dragon Archfiend appears on the field and unleashes a huge amount of fireballs that slam into Johnson causing him to cry out as he loses 3000 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Yusuke: 3500

With the end of the duel, Johnson's form turns into data particles and he is sent into another of Washu's `data cube prisons'.

Kiba says, with a nod, “Yeah! And they are tougher.”

 

Keiko tells Yusuke, with a smile, “Nice work, Yusuke.”

 

Yusuke tells Keiko, with a sly grin, “Oh, please. This corporate has been didn't stand a chance.” Yusuke kisses Keiko on the lips and he tells her, “And I know that you can beat him my `little enchantress'.”

 

Keiko says, with a giggle and loving tone, “Oh, Yusuke…” Soon after, Keiko puts her 5ds Duel Disk over her left wrist, it attached to her left wrist, and she inserts her dueling deck into duel disk.

 

Lector tells Nesbitt, with a serious tone, “You had better not lose to her!”

 

Nesbitt says, with a sly smile, “I won't lose to a young girl like that.”

 

Lector says, with a snort, “Even through she was helped last time, I remember you lost to Joey Wheeler's sister, Serenity Wheeler.”

 

Nesbitt says, annoyed, “Don't remind me.” Immediately, an Academy Duel Disk appears on his right wrist and Nesbitt starts to pick out cards for his deck. When he is done, Nesbitt's deck appears within his duel disk and he says, with a sly smile, “And now, my Deck Master shall be the mighty Robotic Knight!” Just then Robotic Knight (1600/1800) comes to Nesbitt's right side.

Nesbitt says, discarding his Mechanicalchaser (1850/800) monster card, “Then I activate my Deck Master's special ability: Final Artillery! By discarding one Machine monster to my grave, you lose five hundred life-points.” Just then an image of Mechanicalchaser appears on the field, fires a laser beam, and it slams into Keiko, but she stands firm as she loses 500 life-points.

And by the way, did I tell you that my Rose is one of the new Tuner monsters like the one Yusuke used?”

 

Nesbitt yells out, stunned, “Say what?!”

 

Keiko calls out, strongly, “I tune my level four Rose with my level two Wall of Ivy and my level one Charcoal Inpachi! Go, Synchro Summon!” Rose immediately turns into four stars that turn into four rings that surround Charcoal Inpachi and Wall of Ivy making both of them become transparent.

Nesbitt says, with a snort, “So, what? I've still got plenty of life-points left.” Nesbitt thinks in his mind, with a sly grin, “And once you attack me, your overgrown freak of a dragon will get a nasty surprise from my face-down cards.”

 

Keiko calls out, plainly, “Black Rose Dragon's monster effect: When successfully Synchro Summoned, Black Rose Dragon destroys all cards on the field.”

 

Nesbitt yells out, shocked, “What?!”

 

Keiko cries out, “Black Rose Gale!” Immediately, Black Rose Dragon unleashes a powerful hurricane filled with dark violet rose petals that destroys Keiko's Backfire continuous trap card with Machine King Prototype, Nesbitt's two face-down cards, and itself. Soon after, Keiko's Field Spell slot of her duel disk opens and she says, putting a card inside, “Next, I play my Black Garden Field Spell.” When the slot closes open, the field is turned into cocoon of green vines filled with thrones and black roses with the two duelists trapped inside.

 

Nesbitt asks, perplexed, “What is this?”

Keiko says, with a plain tone, “These Tokens can't attack and they can't be destroyed in battle, but they can be used to summon higher level monsters.”

Nesbitt yells out, stunned, “No!” The trap card launches a series of flaming flower petals at Nesbitt and he yelps out as he loses 500 life-points.

 

Keiko says, putting another card on her duel disk, “Next, I release from Phoenixican Seed to its ability to summon Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis in attack mode!” Phoenixican Seed glows, grows, and blooms into Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis (2200/0-1600/0), a large flower monster with red flower with a bird-like head coming out the `branches' of the plant, in attack mode while Black Garden's wines wrap around him. Keiko says, with a serious tone, “Black Garden will reduce its power while my Deck Master gives it a boost! And now, another Rose Token is summoned to your field!” Just then another Rose Token (800/800) appears on Nesbitt's side of the field in attack mode and Keiko says, with a serious tone, “And now, my trap activates!” Just then Rose Flame sends another whirlwind of flaming Rose Petals right Nesbitt and he yelps out as he loses 500 more life-points. Keiko calls out, strongly, “Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis, attack his Cyber Falcon now! Flame Petal!” Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis launches a wave of flaming energy spheres right at Cyber Falcon.

 

Nesbitt says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “I don't think so! I play my trap now! It's called Cyber Shield!” Just then Nesbitt's face-down card is revealed to be a counter trap card with a picture of three satellites forming a protective shield against a spaceship and Nesbitt says, with a sly grin, “When you attack a Machine-type monster, this card protects it and my life-points from any damage!” Soon after, an energy shield protects Cyber Falcon from the attack of Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis.

 

Keiko yells out, strongly, “Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis' effect activates! When it attacks, it is automatically destroyed and you take eight hundred points of damage!” Nesbitt gasps in shock and Keiko calls out, “Scatter Flame!” Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis explodes causing multiple flaming spheres to slam into Nesbitt causing him to yelp out as he loses 800 life-points. Keiko says, with a serious tone, “I end my turn and during my End Phase, Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis revives from my grave!” Immediately, Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis (2200/0-1600/0) to appear on the field in defense mode and Keiko says, with a serious tone, “This causes my Black Garden to activate to half its attack power and summon a Rose Token to your side of the field!” A Rose Token (800/800) appears on Nesbitt's side of the field and Keiko says, with a serious tone, “And this activates my Rose Flame!” Just then more flaming flower petals slam into Nesbitt, thanks to Keiko's trap card, and he yelps as he loses 500 life-points.

By discarding one card from my deck, I can remove one monster from the field!” Nesbitt discards one card from his hand and Phoenixican Cluster Amaryllis vanishes from the field. Nesbitt says, with a sly grin, “And now, you can't use its ability when it is sent to your grave! And now, Perfect Machine King attacks your Rose Token!” Perfect Machine King launches missiles at Rose Token and they slam into it causing a huge explosion causing Keiko to yell out as she loses 1550 life-points. Nesbitt says, discarding his Overdrive (1600/1500) and Giga-Tech Wolf (1200/1400) monster cards, “Then I discard two Machines to play my Deck Ability of Final Artillery!” Just then both monsters appear on the field, fires lasers at her, and Keiko yelps as she loses 1000 life-points.

Keiko says, drawing one card from her deck, “My turn! Draw!” Keiko says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots causing a hologram of a spell card with a picture mechanized harvester gathering grain appear on the field, “Next, I play my Gathering Harvest spell card! I can release one Plant monster on my field to draw two cards and I choose to release one of my Rose Tokens!” One of Keiko's Rose Tokens vanishes from the field and she draws two more cards from her deck.

 

Nesbitt says, with a sly grin, “You must be desperate with that move.”

 

Keiko says, with a plain tone, “Actually, it is the start of your defeat.”

 

Nesbitt yells out, annoyed, “What do you mean?”

 

Keiko says, with a sly grin, “Let me show you buster! I play Black Garden's effect!” Just then the vines that surround both duelists turn brown and start to collapse along with all three Rose Tokens still on the field.

 

Nesbitt yells out, perplexed, “What's going on here?”

 

Keiko says, with a serious tone, “By sending this card to my graveyard along with destroying all Plant monsters on the field, I can summon back a monster in my grave with attack points equal to the total of the destroyed Plant monsters.”

 

Kurama says, with a serious tone, “The three Rose Tokens destroyed equal twenty-four hundred attack points.”

 

Tenchi says, with a serious tone, “There is only one monster that Keiko can summon back with that.” When the Black Garden has turned into wilted plant remains on the field, dark violet flames come from them.

 

Keiko yells out, strongly, “I summon back Black Rose Dragon!” Immediately, the dark violet flames explode into a twister and a figure comes from the flames. When the flames die down, Black Rose Dragon (2400/1800-2900/1800) in attack mode while Perfect Machine King's stats rise from 2350/1500 to 4700/1500 while Cyber Falcon's stats rise from 700/1200 to 1400/1200!

 

Nesbitt asks, perplexed, “You did all that for that monster? My Perfect Machine King has regained all of its power! Your little dragon doesn't stand a chance against my superior machines!”

 

Keiko says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I beg to differ. Next, I play my Block Attack! This switches your Perfect Machine King into defense mode.” Perfect Machine King then switches from attack mode to defense mode.

 

Nesbitt thinks in his mind, with a sly grin, “Heh! My Michizure trap card will get rid of that dragon to make sure that she is ripe for the finishing act! It will finally show the power of machines over humans, once and for all!”

 

Keiko says, removing Wall of Ivy (300/1200) monster card from her graveyard, “I play Black Rose Dragon's second ability! By removing one Plant type monster from play, I can switch one defense mode monster in attack mode and reduces its attack points to zero! And I remove Wall of Ivy!” Just then the image of Wall of Ivy goes to Black Rose Dragon's mouth, the dragon eats it, and Keiko yells out, strongly, “Rose Restriction!” Black Rose Dragon launches thorn filled vines from its wings that clamp onto Perfect Machine King, switching it into attack mode, and its stats reduce from 4700/1500 to 0/1500!

 

Nesbitt thinks in his mind, horrified, “No! And my trap won't help me now since my life-points will drop to zero!”

 

Keiko yells out, strongly, “Black Rose Dragon, end this duel! Attack his Perfect Machine King with Black Rose Flare!” Black Rose Dragon launches a beam of dark violet flames with black rose petals at Perfect Machine King enveloping it and Nesbitt cries out as he loses 2900 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

With the end of the duel, Nesbitt is turned into `data particles' and he goes into another of Washu's `data prisons' like the rest of the Big Five so far.

 

The `data cube' goes into Washu's hands and Washu says, with a sly grin, “Another one bites the dust.”

 

Keiko goes back to the others and Yusuke tells Keiko, with a loving smile, “You were great, Kei.”

 

Keiko says, with a loving smile of her own, “Thanks, Yusuke.” Yusuke and Keiko share a kiss as Keiko goes into Yusuke's arms as he tenderly embraces her while Jaden goes up to face the last of the Big Five.

 

Alexis tells Jaden, with a sly smile, “You had better not lose to him.”

 

Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Don't worry, Lex! Piece of cake.”

 

As his duel disk appears on his left wrist, Lector thinks in his mind, with a snort, “That's what this brat thinks! Playtime is over!” Soon enough, while Jaden puts his dueling deck into his duel disk attached to his left wrist, Lector is picking out the cards for his deck. When he is done, Lector tells Jaden, “It's time to pick a Deck Master for the duel!”

 

Jaden says, with a sly grin, “That's easy! I choose good old Necroshade!” Just then Elemental Hero Necroshade (1600/1800) comes to Jaden's right side.

 

Lector yells out, with a sly smile, “And I choose the all mighty Jinzo!” Immediately, Jinzo (2400/1500) comes to Lector's right side.

 

Joey says, with a serious tone, “That's not good! With Jinzo as that jerk's Deck Master, Jaden can't use any trap card while he can play any trap cards that he wants!”

 

Syrus yells out, stunned, “What?! That's not fair!”

 

Tyranno says, with a serious tone, “These jerks don't play fair, private, but I know the Sarge will still bash them!” The two of them activate their duel disk, they draw five cards from their decks, and their life-point counters display 4000 life-points each.

 

Jaden says, strongly, “Okay! Time to get your game on!”

Lector says, drawing a card, “You want game, boy? I'll give you game!” Lector says, putting one card on his duel disk, “I summon a face-down monster!” Immediately, a face-down defense monster appears on Lector's side of the field and Lector says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, “Then I place a couple of face-downs and end my turn!”

 

Jaden says, drawing a card, “My turn! Draw!” Jaden thinks in his mind, “Well, this is going to be a tough nut to crack! Thanks to his Deck Master, my traps are useless while he can use any trap that he wants!” Jaden says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Okay, first, I use my Deck Master ability! Once per turn, I can summon out a high-level Elemental Hero without a sacrifice and I choose my Bladedge!” Just then Elemental Hero Bladedge (2600/1800) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play my Double Summon! And thanks to this sweet card, I can summon again!” Jaden puts another card on his duel disk and he says, “And I choose my good old Elemental Hero Wildheart!” Immediately, Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) comes to the field in attack mode.

Lector asks, with a sly grin, “Is that all, boy?”

 

Jaden says, with a sly smile while putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “No way! I play my R-Righteous Justice spell card! This card allows me to send any number of spell and trap cards on the field to the grave based on the number of heroes that I have in play! And since I have two, both of your face-downs have got to hit the road!”

 

Lector yells out, stunned, “No!” Immediately, Lector's face-down cards, Draining Shield trap card and Solemn Wishes continuous trap card, are destroyed.

 

Jaden yells out, strongly, “Bladedge, attack his face-down monster!” Bladedge immediately slices Lector's face-down monster, Hiro's Shadow Scout (600/500), causing Lector to lose 2100 life-points.

 

Lector says, with a serious tone, “Thanks to my Shadow Scout, you draw three cards and any spell cards in those three cards, you send to the graveyard!” Jaden draws three cards from his deck, displays the cards to be Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin (600/800), Instant Neo-Space equip spell card, and Pot of Greed spell card, discards the two spell cards, and he adds the only monster that he drew to his hand.

 

Jaden says, strongly, “But you are still open for a direct attack! Wildheart, do your stuff!” Wildheart charges in for a direct attack, slashes Lector in the chest, and he yelps as he loses 1500 life-points. Jaden says, with a plain tone, “I'll end my turn here.”

 

Current Score:

Jaden: 4000

Lector: 400

 

Lector says, with a sneer while drawing a card, “Not bad, kid, but playtime is over.” Lector says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Now, I play my Pot of Greed! This gives me two more cards from my deck!” Lector draws two more cards from his deck and he says, one card on his duel disk, “I place a monster face-down.” Just then a hologram of a face-down monster appears on the field and he says, putting three cards in the spell/trap slots, “I place three cards face-down!” Lector then puts the final card in his hand into the spell/trap slots and he yells out, “And I play my Mirage of Nightmare to end my turn!”

 

Jaden says, drawing one card from his deck, “It's my turn!”

 

Lector says, with a sly grin, “And thanks to my Mirage of Nightmare, I get four more cards!” Lector draws four more cards from his deck and Lector says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “And now, I play my face-down: Emergency Provisions!” Lector's face-down card is revealed to be the Emergency Provisions Quick-Play spell card and he says, with a sly smile, “This card allows me to regain life-points for every one of my spell and trap cards that I send to the graveyard! So, I send my Mirage of Nightmare and one of my face-down cards to regain two thousand life-points!” Mirage of Nightmare continuous spell card and one of his face-down cards vanish from the field while his life-points increase by 2000.

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “So, what? My Bladedge can take them down! Attack with Slice and Dice!” Bladedge then immediately attacks Lector's face-down card.

 

Lector says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “I don't think so, kid! I play my Gravity Bind trap card!” Lector's face-down card is revealed to be the Gravity Bind continuous trap card and Lector says, with a sly grin, “Thanks to this card, all monsters with four stars or more can't attack!” Just then the trap card unleashes gravity waves that stop Bladedge right in his tracks.

 

Jaden yells out, strongly, “Too bad that my Wildheart isn't affected by traps! Attack!” Wildheart attacks Lector's face-down card and slices it in half causing it to be revealed as Skelengel (900/400) before it is destroyed.

 

Lector draws one card from his deck and he says, with a sly smile, “Thanks, boy! Now, I get one more card from my deck!”

Lector says, drawing one card from his deck, “My move!” Lector looks at his hand and he thinks in his mind, with a sly grin, “Excellent!” Lector says, putting one card on his duel disk, “I summon my Injection Fairy Lilly!” Just then Injection Fairy Lilly (400/1500) comes to the field in attack mode and Lector yells out, “I give up two thousand life-points to increase her power by three thousand!” Injection Fairy Lilly's needle becomes huge as its stats rise from 400/1500 to 3400/1500 while Lector loses 2000 life-points. Lector yells out, “Fairy Lilly, attack his Wildheart!” Injection Fairy Lilly slams its needle into Wildheart's chest causing him to cry out as he is destroyed causing Jaden to lose 1900 life-points.

 

Jaden says, with a plain tone, “That cost you more life-points than me, bro.”

 

Lector says, with a sly grin while putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “Not exactly! Because I play my Sebek's Blessing spell card! This card allows me to gain life-points equal to the life-points that you lost!” Lector's life-points increase by another 1900 points.

 

Joey says, annoyed, “That means that jerk can power up his Fairy Lilly again!”

 

Tyranno yells out, strongly, “Come on, Sarge!”

 

Lector says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “I think that will do for now.” Lector thinks in his mind, with a sly grin, “Excellent. Now, with his monsters disabled, I can use my face-down Trip Trap card next turn to get back my Solemn Wishes and use to boost my life-points more! Plus, with my face-down, Fairy's Shield, I can protect my Fairy Lilly from one attack if he disables my trap card!”

 

Current Score:

Jaden says, drawing one card from his deck, “My turn! Draw!” Jaden says, looking at the card, “Sweet.” Jaden says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I play my Graceful Charity! I draw three new cards from my deck and discard two more cards from my hand.” Jaden draws three cards from his deck, discards H-Heated Heart and O-Oversoul spell cards to the graveyard, and Jaden says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my E-Emergency Call spell card! This card allows me to take one Elemental Hero from my deck and add it to my hand!” Just then a card comes out of Jaden's deck and he says, putting the card on his duel disk, “And thanks to my Deck Master, I can summon him right away! Namely, my Elemental Hero Neos!” Just then Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Lector says, with a sly grin, “But my trap card makes you unable to use him.”

 

Jaden says, putting another card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, my Mystical Space Typhoon says different since it allows me to destroy a spell or trap on the field! So, your little `bind' has got to go!” Just then a twister comes onto the field that destroys Lector's Gravity Bind continuous trap card.

 

Lector thinks in his mind, with a snort, “Well, see who has the last laugh! When you attack, I'll use my Lilly's ability and your second attack will be stopped by my trap!”

 

Jaden says, putting another card in the spell/trap slots, “And finally, I play my Hero Flash spell card! By removing H-Heated Heart, E-Emergency Call, R-Righteous Justice, and O-Oversoul spell card from my grave from play, I can play this spell and by the way, I put H-Heated Heart and O-Oversoul in my grave, thanks to my Graceful Charity spell, bro!” The four named cards come out of Jaden's graveyard, a card comes out of Jaden's deck, and he says, putting the card on his duel disk, “First, I can summon one hero from my deck and I choose my friend, Sparkman!” Just then Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Plus, every Normal Elemental Hero can by-pass your monsters and attack you directly!”

 

Lector yells out, flabbergasted, “No, it can't be!”

 

Jaden calls out, with a sly smile, “I'm sorry, bro, but it is! Okay, heroes, attack him directly! Hero Flash!” Neos turns into a grey light and Sparkman into a yellowish light and that combine into one beam of light that slams into Lector causing him to cry out as he loses 4100 life-points, ending the duel right now.

 

Final Score:

Jaden: 2100

Lector: 0

 

With the end of the duel, Lector cries out as he is turned into data particles and his data is stored in another of Washu's `data prisons' as the holograms on the field fade away.

 

When the `data cube' comes to Washu, she says, with a sly smile, “And that makes five.”

 

Serena says, with a smile, “Nice work, Jaden.”

 

Naruto yells out, excitedly, “That was amazed, Jay! You crushed him!”

 

Hinata says, with a nod, “Yes. It was good dueling.”

 

Kiba says, with a sly grin, “Good riddance!”

 

Kaiba tells Gozaburo, with a sly smile, “This just isn't your day `old man'.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Please! You think that I care what happens to them? They betrayed me before and I couldn't take the risk. Personally, I was going to turn them into my obedient servants when we were done anyway.”

 

Rei says, with a snort, “Sicko.”

 

Gozaburo replies, “That's what you say. It is my new version of `corporate downsizing' and by the way, if you think that I would fall into your trap so willingly, then think again! I made sure that those fools help me put a bit of a backup plan.”

 

Davis asks, curiously, “What do you mean?” Just then a large rumbling through the whole arena as a power surge goes through it.

 

Mokuba asks, perplexed, “What was that?”

 

Kaiba yells at Gozaburo, strongly, “What did you do you snake?!”

 

Washu types on her holographic computer and she yelps out, “Oh, my! He has sent a virus through to the power systems and it is causing them to overload!”

 

Many in the stadium gasp in shock and Tenchi says, stunned, “Wait! How did it get through? With the improved firewall and security that you and the others put up, it shouldn't have gotten through.”

 

Washu says, with a serious tone, “It must have been some kind of compact virus that was made so small that not our sensors and any of our security measures couldn't detect it. But when it reached its target, bam! It expands and attacks the system. I've seen plenty of these before!”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “Correct! And soon, this place will be in total chaos with a short time! And there is nothing that you can do to disable the virus!”

 

Noah says, with a serious tone, “I might!” Noah tells Washu, “Washu, load me into the system and guide me to the infected areas! We're going to need to take a direct approach to get rid of the virus!”

 

Washu says, with a nod, “Good idea, Noah! We are going to need a `smart anti-virus program' to stop this `bug'.” Immediately, Washu corrects Noah's virtual projector and `container' into the system and Noah vanishes as he is download into the system.

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Good luck! I made that virus myself and it is unbeatable!”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “Well, from my experience, nothing in the world is `unbeatable'.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a snort, “I see that Seto is training duelists with this school of his.”

 

Kaiba says, with a snort, “None of your business, old man. I think that it is time for me and you to settle this.” Kaiba gets out a duel disk designed like the one that Yusei Fudo used in his duel with Armstrong in Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds, puts it over his left wrist, where it attaches, and he says, putting his dueling deck inside, “You and I are going to end this once and for all!”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sneer, “You want to duel me?! Fine! This time, I will crush you once and for all!” An Academy-style duel disk attaches to Gozaburo's left wrist and a set of cards appears in front of him. Gozaburo then starts to choose his cards and when he is done, his deck appears in his duel disk. Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “To keep this fair, I think that both of us should choose a Deck Master!”

 

Kaiba yells out, strongly, “That's simple for me! I play my Lord of Dragons!” Immediately, Lord of Dragons (1200/1100) comes to Kaiba's right side.

 

Gozaburo says, with a strong tone, “And I will use this card known as Card Trooper!” Immediately, Card Trooper (400/400) comes to Gozaburo's right side. Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Since I know that I will win, I will tell you that this little guy is stronger than you think. Especially for every one of my monsters on the field that you destroy, I get a card.”

 

Yolei asks, perplexed, “Why is he telling Kaiba about his Deck Master before the duel starts?”

 

Ken says, with a serious tone, “He is so confident that he will win that it doesn't matter to him.”

 

Kira says, with a snort, “Cocky jerk.”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly smile, “Thank you for telling me, but that might come back to haunt you.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “We'll see about that Seto.” Immediately, the two of them activate their duel disk, with Kaiba's duel disk shuffling his deck, their life-point counters display 4000 life-points each, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

“Duel!” Gozaburo and Kaiba yell out in unison as their duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Kaiba: 4000

Gozaburo: 4000

 

Gozaburo draws one card from his deck and he says, with a serious tone, “I'll start off!” Gozaburo puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, “I play my Graceful Charity! I draw three cards from my deck and discard two cards from my hand!” Gozaburo draws three cards from his deck and discards two cards from his hand. Gozaburo says, putting another card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play my Card Destruction! Now, both of us are forced to discard are our hands and redraw a new hand!” Both Gozaburo and Kaiba discard their hands and redraw from their decks the same number of cards that they discarded.

 

Kaiba thinks in his mind, with a snarl, “What is he up?”

 

Gozaburo yells out, with a sly smile while putting a card into the spell/trap slots, “If you are wondering why I am doing, then my Contact with Exodia spell card might refresh your memory!”

 

Kaiba yells out, stunned, “Not that card again!”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “That's right, Seto! Thanks to its effect, since all five pieces of Exodia, thanks to my two spell cards, are in my grave, I can summon Exodia Necross right to the field!” A card comes out of Gozaburo's deck and when he puts it on his duel disk, Exodia Necross (1800/0) appears on the field in attack mode. Gozaburo says, with a sly grin while putting a card into the spell/trap slots, “I'll lay this face-down and give you a break Seto.”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly smirk, “Is that all? This is getting boring already.” Kaiba draws one card from his deck and he says, with a sly smile, “I'll place this first! The White Stone of Legend Tuner monster!” Immediately, The White Stone of Legend (300/250) comes to the field in defense mode.

 

Many in the group are shocked and Joey yells out, stunned, “What?! When did Kaiba get his hands on those latest monsters?!”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “I'm the owner of the largest corporation on the planet, you mutt. And getting some leverage on Pegasus is quite easy since I agreed to allow him to design the new series of spell cards for use in my new `Turbo Duels' for my new Duel Runners. Personally, I could have done other things to him, but I was feeling nice.”

 

Tristan asks, perplexed, “Kaiba? Nice?”

 

Tea says, with a nod, “Those are two words that don't exactly go together.”

 

Kaiba says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “And now, I play my Ancient Rules spell card! Here is how it works! This card allows me to play a level five or above Normal monster and I just got the card for you snake!” Kaiba says, putting the card on his duel disk, “Come forth, mighty Hyozanryu!” Just then Hyozanryu (2100/2800) comes to the field in attack mode. Kaiba says, with a sly smile, “And to show why I'm the head of this corporation, I tune my level one White Stone of Legend with my level seven Hyozanryu!” Immediately, The White Stone of Legend becomes a star that turns into a ring that makes Hyozanryu become transparent.

 

Yusuke yells out, amazed tone, “Whoa!”

 

Joey calls out, stunned, “No way! Kaiba can Synchro Summon now?!” When the column of light that appears during Synchro Summoning, Kaiba takes a Synchro Monster card from his Extra deck and he puts it on his duel disk.

 

Kaiba yells out, “And now, I Synchro Summon the mighty Light End Dragon!” Out of the light, Light End Dragon (2600/2100) appears on the field in attack mode. Just then a card comes out of Kaiba's deck and he says, with a sly smile, “I don't like Pegasus and he does very few things to impressive me, but for once, I am impressive with these new cards. Including The White Stone of Legend card which allows me to put a Blue-Eyes White Dragon from my deck into my hand!” Kaiba then displays his Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500) monster card before putting it into his hand. Kaiba calls out, strongly, “Light End Dragon, attack his Exodia Necross!” Light End Dragon powers up a beam of energy to fire right at Exodia Necross.

 

Gozaburo says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Nice try, Seto, but I play my Turn Jump spell card!” Gozaburo's face-down is revealed to be the Turn Jump spell card and he says, as a clock comes on the field, “As you know, this clock forces our duel to jump three turns ahead, but they also affect cards on the field including my Exodia Necross! Since three Standby Phases have pasted, officially, he gains fifteen hundred more attack points!” The clock speeds up the duel and Exodia Necross' stats rise from 1800/0 to 3300/0.

 

Mokuba yells out, stunned, “Oh no!” Light End Dragon attacks Exodia Necross, but it counterattacks, destroys Light End Dragon, and Kaiba yelps out as he loses 700 life-points.

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Well, it looks like that I got one up on you, Seto!”

 

Kaiba says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “You wish! I place two cards face-down and activate my Deck Master's special ability! I give up five hundred life-points to Normal Summon a dragon in my hand!” Kaiba's life-points drop by five hundred and Kaiba says, putting one card on his duel disk, “And I choose Luster Dragon in defense mode!” Immediately, Luster Dragon (1900/1200) comes to the field in defense mode and Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “And I end my turn!”

 

Current Score:

Kaiba: 2800

Gozaburo: 4000

 

Gozaburo says, with a snort, “Is that all?! Please!” Gozaburo draws one card from his deck and he yells out, “And now, thanks to my Exodia Necross' ability, he gains five hundred more attack points!” Exodia Necross' stats rise from 3300/0 to 3800/0 and Gozaburo calls out, “Exodia Necross, attack his dragon now!” Exodia Necross moves in to attack Luster Dragon.

 

Kaiba says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “I don't think so, Gozaburo! I play my face-down: Negate Attack!” Kaiba's face-down card is revealed to be the Negate Attack counter trap card and a shield protects Luster Dragon from Exodia Necross.

 

Gozaburo says, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, “I'll end my turn with one card face-down.”

 

Kaiba says, drawing one card from his deck, “It's my move!” Kaiba says, with a sly smirk, “I think that I will start this round with my Card of Demise! This card allows me to draw from my deck until I have five cards in my hand, but in five turns, I need to discard my entire hand!” Kaiba draws from his deck until he has five cards in his hand and Kaiba says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “And now, I play my Shallow Grave! Now, both of us must summon back one of our monsters in the grave in defense mode!”

 

Gozaburo yells out, stunned, “No! That means…!”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly grin, “That's right! You'll need to summon back a piece of Exodia! But first, I play summon back my Light End Dragon!” Just then Light End Dragon (2600/2100) returns to the field in defense mode.

 

Gozaburo says, with a snort, “And I choose the head of Exodia.” Immediately, the head of Exodia, Exodia the Forbidden One (1000/1000), comes to the field and Exodia Necross vanishes from the field as it is destroyed. Gozaburo says, drawing a card, “Since Exodia Necross was destroyed, I get one more card from my deck.”

 

Kaiba yells out, putting one card on his duel disk, “And now, I release my two dragons to summon my mighty Blue-Eyes White Dragon!” Just then the two monsters on the field vanish and Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500) comes to the field to take their place. Kaiba yells out, pushing a button on his duel disk, “Then I play my Meteor Rain trap card!” Kaiba's other face-down card is revealed to be the Meteor Rain trap card and Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “For this turn, every time that my monster attacks a monster with less defense points than my monster's attack points, the difference comes out of your score!” Kaiba calls out, strongly, “Blue-Eyes, attack the head of Exodia right now with White Lightning!” Blue-Eyes White Dragon fires its signature attack and destroys Exodia's head causing Gozaburo to cry out from the explosion that costs him 2000 life-points.

 

Gozaburo says, drawing a card, “Thanks to my Deck Master, I draw!”

Kaiba says, with a serious tone while putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll end my turn with a face-down card.”

 

Current Score:

Kaiba: 2800

Gozaburo: 2000

 

Gozaburo says, drawing a card, “And now, I draw, again!” Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “If you think that by destroying Exodia Necross that you won, you are sadly mistaken Seto! I have another plan!” Gozaburo says, pushing a button on his duel disk, “First, I play my Backup Soldier trap card!” Gozaburo's face-down card is revealed to be the Backup Soldier trap card and Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “Since I have more than five monsters in my grave, I return up to three monsters in my grave to my hand! So, I return the right arm, the right leg, and the left leg of Exodia to my hand!” The three cards, the Left Leg of the Forbidden One (200/300), the Right Leg of the Forbidden One (200/300), and the Left Leg of the Forbidden One (200/300) monster cards, return from the grave to Gozaburo's hand. After he puts them into his hand, he says, “Now, I activate a card in my graveyard!”

 

Many of the group gasp in shock and Yugi states, stunned, “In his grave?!”

 

Jordan thinks in his mind, worriedly, “No, he couldn't have!”

 

Gozaburo's graveyard slot glows and he declares, “I play The Ultimate Ritual of the Forbidden Lord! This powerful spell card can only be activated when all five pieces of Exodia are in my hand and in the grave and I have three in my hand and two in my grave! I put this spell card in my grave through Graceful Charity! And now, all Exodia pieces in my grave return to my deck, Seto!” Immediately, the two remaining Exodia pieces come out of graveyard slot and Gozaburo puts them back into his deck, reshuffles it, and returns his deck to his duel disk. Gozaburo then puts the left and right legs of Exodia back into the graveyard and he says, with a sly grin, “And next, I put two legs of Exodia back to summon Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord!” A card comes out of Gozaburo's deck and he puts it on his duel disk causing a bright light to come up from below.

 

Kaiba asks, perplexed, “Exodius!” Immediately, Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord (?/0) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smirk, “And if you are wondering about its attack power, it gains one thousand for every Normal monster in my grave and since the two pieces of Exodia there count as Normal monsters… well, you get the idea Seto.” Immediately, Exodius' stats rise from 0/0 to 2000/0.

 

Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “It's weaker than my dragon!”

 

Davis says, with a serious tone, “Yeah, but Gozaburo gets to sacrifice another monster to the grave to give it more power when it attacks and if he puts all five pieces of Exodia in there through its effect along with his spell card, it is automatically game over since Exodia is summoned!”

 

Mokuba yells out, stunned, “What?!”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin, “The kid is right, Seto! Thanks to Exodius, I get to send one monster from my hand or deck to my grave each turn and when I have all five pieces of Exodia back in my grave, its game over!” Gozaburo yells out, “And now, Exodius attacks your Blue-Eyes and it allows me to send another Exodia piece to the grave to increase its power!” Gozaburo sends the right arm of Exodia to the grave and Exodius' stats rise from 2000/0 to 3000/0.

 

Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “Now, our monster's attack power is even now.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “True, but my monster can't be effected or destroy by any and all spell, trap, and monster effects as well as it can't be destroyed in battle.” Kaiba gasps in shock as Exodius attacks his Blue-Eyes, which counterattacks, but Exodius overcomes the attack and Blue-Eyes White Dragon is destroyed. Gozaburo says, as he puts one card in the spell/trap slots, “And I'll end with a face-down.”

 

Kaiba thinks in his mind, with a snort, “If that fools manages to get all five pieces of Exodia in his grave, then it is over. However, I won't let that happen!” Kaiba yells out, drawing one card from his deck, “And now, I draw!” Kaiba says, with a sly smile, “Now, I play my Dragon's Mirror spell card! By removing the fusion material monsters from my grave, I can summon a Dragon-type fusion monster! And by the way, thanks to you, all three of my Blue-Eyes White Dragons are in there! Since you sent two of them to the grave earlier, thanks to your Card Destruction, and the third one with your Exodius, I can summon one of my most powerful beasts!”

 

Ken asks, amazed, “Is he actually…?” Kaiba removes his three Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500 X 3) monster cards from his graveyard, takes a fusion monster card from his Extra deck, and he puts the card on his duel disk.

 

Kaiba yells out, strongly, “Show yourself, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!” A bright light comes onto the field and out of that light, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon (4500/3800) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Mokuba calls out, excitedly, “I knew that you could it Seto!”

 

Kaiba yells out, strongly, “Blue-Eyes, attack his Exodius right now!” Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon prepares to attack and Kaiba says, with a sly smile, “I can't destroy your monster, but I can damage you old man.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin while pushing a button on his duel disk, “But I have this, Seto! I play my trap card: Defense Seal Wall!” Just then Gozaburo's face-down card is revealed to be the Defense Seal Wall continuous trap card and Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “Sorry, Seto, but this card remains in play as long as Exodius remains in play and this card stops your attacks and end your Battle Phase!” Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's attack is immediately stopped.

 

Mina says, nervously, “This isn't good.”

Amara says, plainly, “For Kaiba anyway.”

 

Sasuke says, plainly, “As long as Exodius is on the field, the trap remains in play and there is no way to destroy Exodius at all.”

 

Kaiba says, with a snort, “I end my turn.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly grin while drawing a card, “There is nothing that you can do to stop me now, Seto.” Gozaburo says, taking out his deck and taking a card from it, “Now, Exodius will attack your `Ultimate Dragon' and I will discard another Exodia piece, the left arm to be more exact, and since it is a normal monster, Exodius gains a grand in attack power!” Gozaburo puts his deck back in his duel disk, discards the left arm of Exodia to the graveyard, and Exodius' stats rise from 3000/0 to 4000/0 in which he attacks Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon which counterattacks causing the attack to slam into Exodius causing Gozaburo to yelp out as he loses 500 life-points.

 

Takuya asks, stunned, “Why did he do that?”

 

Koji says, with a plain tone, “In order to discard what he needs to summon Exodia, he had to attack, so, he had to risk some life-points.”

 

TK says, with a nod, “And now, he only needs one more piece of Exodia to end this duel.”

 

Gozaburo says, with a sly smile, “One more turn and it is checkmate, Seto! So, say your prayers!”

 

Current Score:

Kaiba: 2800

Gozaburo: 1500

 

Kaiba says, drawing one card from his deck, “This duel is far from over and it is my move!” Kaiba says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I play Pot of Greed! This card allows me to draw two cards from my deck!” Kaiba draws two more cards from his deck and when he looks at them, he gains a wide smile and starts laughing.

 

Gozaburo asks, confused and annoyed, “What's so funny?!”

 

Kaiba stops laughing and retorts, with a sly tone, “What's funny is you, old man! You thought by using a variation of your same old tactics would defeat me! Well, you are wrong! Because I've drawn the cards that I needed to end this and you right now!”

 

Gozaburo yells out, strongly, “You lie!”

 

Atem says, with a serious tone, “When Kaiba is this confident, he isn't lying.”

 

Kaiba says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, let my cards speak for themselves! I play my Stamping Destruction! Since I have a dragon-type monster on my field, one spell or trap card is destroyed and the owner of that card loses five hundred life-points! So, say goodbye to your Defense Seal Wall!” Gozaburo yells out as a giant dragon's foot crushes the hologram of the Defense Seal Wall trap card and he loses 500 life-points in the process.

 

Gozaburo yells out, with a snort, “So, what?! I will still win on my next! I still have more than enough life-points to survive your attack!”

 

Kaiba says, with a sly smile while putting a card into the spell/trap slots, “My Pump Up spell card says differently since it doubles my Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon's attack power and while your Exodius will survive, you won't!” Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon roars as its stats rise from 4500/3800 to 9000/3800!

 

Gozaburo yells out, stunned, “NOOOOOOOO!!!”

 

Kaiba yells out, strongly, “Blue-Eyes, end this now! Neutron Blast Attack!” Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon fires a powerful lightning attack from its three months that plow into Exodius and while Exodius remains intact, the blast slams into Gozaburo causing him to cry out as he loses 5000 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Kaiba: 2800

Gozaburo: 0

 

With the end of the duel, the holograms fade away and Gozaburo yells out, with a sly smile as his data body is sucked into Washu's `data prison', “You might have defeated me, but you have lost! I will never allow you to leave here! Say goodbye, Seto!”

 

Just then Noah's voice calls out through the intercom and he says, slyly, “Wrong, father! I've just managed to finish off the virus that you sent into the power systems and the systems are returned to normal.”

 

Gozaburo yells out, stunned, “What?! It can't be!”

 

Washu tells Gozaburo, with a sly tone, “Sorry, pal, but it is! I've given Noah a few of my `special anti-virus weapons' to contain and get rid of your little virus. It wasn't bad, but against me, it was nothing.”

 

Gozaburo calls out, strongly, “NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO…!!!” Soon after, Gozaburo fades as his body is turned into data and he is completely trapped in Washu's final `data prison'.

 

When the `data cube' goes to Washu, she says, “Goodbye.” Soon after, the holographic generators and projectors stop their work and the field turns back into Obelisk Arena.

 

Naruto says, with a sigh, “I'm glad that's over.”

 

Kiba says, with a nod, “No joke.”

 

Choji says, with a plain tone, “It isn't like that we don't face this kind of stuff every single day.”

 

Shikamaru says, with a sigh, “I've got to say that Choji has got a point.”

 

Ayeka asks Washu, “So, Miss Washu, what will you do with them?”

 

Kaiba says, with a serious tone, “Personally, I would throw them into the deepest and darkest pits where they can never get out!”

 

Joey says, with a serious glare, “Well, we are not you, Kaiba!”

 

Matt asks, curiously, “Are you sure that they can't get out of there?”

 

Washu says, with a sly grin, “You doubt little old me?! Hey! These things are fool-proof! All they can do is make their little `virtual worlds' better for them and that's it. With these things, you get in, but you don't come out.”

 

Kakashi says, with a serious tone, “But just to make sure, we should store somewhere they can't get access to electronics.”

 

Washu says, with a sly grin, “Oh, that's simple. I've got a few `places' where they can be where they won't cause any trouble.”

 

Kaiba says, with a snort, “Whatever. Personally, I don't want to see their faces ever again.”

 

Washu tells Noah, who has appeared on the screen of her holographic computer, “Well, Noah, it is time for you to come out.”

 

Noah says, with a nod, “Right.”

 

Mokuba asks, curiously, “But Noah doesn't have a body of his own. What are we are going to do with him?”

 

Kaiba says, with a snort, “Oh, I have a few ideas.”

 

Tea says, with a plain tone, “With the history between you and Noah, I shutter to think that he won't have a worse fate that what his dad did to him.”

 

Yugi says, with a smile, “However, if it wasn't for him and Washu, Duel Academy would be gone.”

 

Joey says, with a sly grin, “So, in a way, you owe him and you don't like owing other people.” Kaiba gives a snort at Joey and crosses his arms across his chest.

 

Kaiba says, with a plain tone, “Fine. I'll design him a special `place' with our mansion where he can live as long as he doesn't get in my way.”

 

Mokuba asks, with an excited tone, “Really, brother?”

 

Kaiba says, with a plain tone, “Yeah. And he won't go in it until you and he agree that it is good enough. I do not like owing people and this is not a `thank you'. This just means that we are even.” Kaiba then walks out of the arena and plenty of our heroes and heroines with Mokuba have a satisfied smile on their faces.

 

Washu says, with a sly smile, “It looks like you have a new home.”

 

Noah says, with a nod, “I do. And hopefully, one day, I will get a body of my own.”

 

Washu says, with a sly smile, “Maybe. In fact, why don't I work on some ideas of my own? I might be able to create something for you that's not a robot body.”

 

Noah asks, stunned, “Wait! A living flesh and blood body for me? You can do that?”

 

Washu says, with a sly smile, “You are talking to the greatest scientist in the universe here.”

 

Ryoko says, with a serious tone, “There are rules against certain types of genetics, you know Washu? Universal rules?”

 

Washu says, with a sly grin, “What's a few rules for a good cause? Besides, you should talk. You never follow the rules since you are a space pirate after all.”

 

Ryoko says, with a nod, “Good point.”

 

Noah tells Washu, with a smile, “Thank you, Washu. I don't know how to repay you.”

 

Washu says, with a smile, “Don't worry about it, kid.”

 

Yugi tells Noah, with a smile, “Just make sure to be good from now on.”

 

Joey states, with a sly grin, “And keep yourself out of trouble, got it?”

 

Noah says, with a nod, “Right.”

 

Hikari tells Jaden, remembering something, “Hey, Jay!”

 

Jaden asks Hikari, “What is it, Kari?”

 

Hikari tells Jaden, with a sly smile, “You had forgotten what's coming tomorrow, right?”

 

Jaden asks, nervously, “Actually, I…”

 

Alexis says, remembering, “Oh, wait! I remember! Tomorrow is Duel Monsters' Spirit Day!”

 

Syrus says, amazed, “Oh, yeah! With all this craziness going on, I forgot!”

 

Inuyasha asks, perplexed, “Duel what?”

 

Kagome says, with a smile, “It is a special event day on Duel Academy where we get to dress up like Duel Monsters, hold special events, games, duels, and other stuff. I've heard about it from Kari.”

 

Yusuke asks Hikari, “So, it is true that Jaden dueled an actual real-life Dark Magician Girl that day?”

 

Hikari says, with a nod, “Yep! Personally, all of us thought it was a mysterious student with a really good costume. But Jay and I saw that she was the real-deal.”

 

Jaden says, with a sly grin, “And Syrus got his first kiss from her.”

 

Syrus gives a major blush and Tyranno tells Syrus, with a sly grin on his lips, “Oh, really? That's real interesting to know, Private.”

 

Syrus yells out, annoyed with the flush still on his cheeks, “What does that mean?”

 

Rika tells Tyranno, with a sly smile, “Come on, Hassleberry. Give the guy a break.”

 

Nyoko says, with a smile, “Yeah! This is going to be great! I can't wait to get into costume.”

 

Melissa says, with a smile, “It is no surprise, Nyoko.”

 

Meiou says, with a smile, “This is going to be fun.”

 

Naruto says, excitedly, “Yeah!”

 

Kari says, with a smile, “This sounds exciting.”

 

Davis says, with a loving smile, “You would make a beautiful Dark Magician Girl, Kari.”

Kari giggles and she says, with a loving tone, “Oh, Dai-kun…”

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “This is going to be great.”

 

Mina says, with a sly smile, “Maybe I should dress up as Injection Fairy Lilly? Ooh, I can't wait!”

 

Lita says, with a sly grin, “Yeah!”

 

Zoe says, excitedly, “This is going to be great!”

 

Ryoko says, with a dark plain tone, “I don't want to seem to be a downer and all, but we need to make sure that our `fun' isn't interrupted. Since the GX tournament is going to be called off for this `event', those white dorks are going to be lurking around.”

 

Rei says, with a dark serious tone, “Ryoko has a point. We need to make sure that those white geeks don't ruin this special day.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Simple. I'll make sure that they don't. I'll start guard and make sure that those white geeks don't try anything.”

 

Jordan says, concerned, “But Zane-aniki, you can't take them all on by yourself. Even without any `super powered members' to support them, they are still dangerous.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly tone, “Don't worry, Jordan. I can't be beaten by worthless dorks that depend on someone else to win. I only need myself and the power of my deck to win.”

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, with a sigh, “Oh, man! But I wanted Zane with me during Duel Monsters Spirit Day.”

 

Yusuke notices Hikari's somewhat depressed look and he thinks, plainly, “Sis probably wants to be with Zane during Duel Monsters Spirit Day.”

 

Hotaru says, with a smile, “I think that it would be nice. I wonder: What kind of costume I should wear?” Hotaru looks at Syrus and she thinks, with a blush on her cheeks, “Maybe I should be Dark Magician Girl… no, what am I thinking? But Syrus-chan really likes Dark Magician Girl…” Hotaru gently shakes her head and her blushing is noticed by her `parents'.

 

Michelle thinks in her mind, with a sly smile, “It seems like my little Hotaru has a crush on the young Truesdale boy and she might be thinking about dressing up as his favorite female monster.” Amara gives a curious eye since Amara has the same `suspicions' as Michelle does.

 

Serena thinks in her mind, with a sly smile, “Hmm, I would like to know what Duel Monster that Darien-kun would like to see me as.”

 

Rika asks Takara, curiously, “Should we join in?”

 

Takara says, with a smile, “Sounds fun.”

 

Jade says, with a smile, “This is going to be great, Jordy.”

 

Jordan says, with a nod, “I think so, Jade-chan. But I don't have anything to wear.”

 

Jade says, with a sly tone, “Well, I have a few ideas.” Jordan become nervous at what his girlfriend's ideas are for his costume.

 

Izayoi says, with a smile, “It sounds interesting. I think our children should go along.”

 

Inuyasha and Melody yell out in unison, surprised, “Huh?!”

 

Melody says, with a snort, “No way! I'm not getting involved in some kind of stupid party!”

 

Inu no Taishou says, with a slight nervous tone, “I don't think our children are `made' for this era's `fun'.”

 

Izayoi says, with a loving smile, “Oh, sweetie. What's the harm of having a little fun? I think that fun can be understood no matter where or when, in our case, you come from.”

 

Inu no Taishou says, with a sigh and smile, “You were always the one getting into `games' that weren't to my liking at first.”

 

Tea says, with a smile, “Maybe we should get into the fun.”

Yugi says, with a nod, “Sounds great.”

 

Atem says, with a smile, “I believe that we have earned some time off from our battles. We just need to make sure to keep our guards up.”

 

Takuya yells out, excitedly, “Well, what are we waiting for?!”

 

JP says, excitedly, “Yeah! This sounds great!”

 

Tommy says, with a nod, “You know it!”

 

Koichi says, with a nod, “Sounds like a great idea.” Our heroes and heroines talk among themselves to set up their preparation for Duel Monsters Spirit Day when Washu plays to download Noah from Duel Academy's systems into a `special container' of his own while Mokuba comes up to see it. However, Yeshua looks at our heroes and heroines warily as he goes into deep mediation for the events to come.

 

(Within the headquarters of the Negaverse; around this time)

 

Inside of the Negaverse, we find Queen Beryl, sitting on her throne, surround by her three generals looking at all of the Sailor Animamates before them with their current leader, Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion, in front.

 

Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion says, with a serious tone, “It seems like I underestimated this Sailor Moon after all. Her power and skill are far better than I thought.”

 

Queen Beryl says, with a snort, “The brat is always getting greater power and coming up with more surprises.”

 

Malachite asks, with a serious tone, “However, how could we have known that someone like her would be an elite ninja from the lands of the Shinobi?”

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko says, with a sneer, “I don't care what she is! I'm going to make that rotten witch pay for making me look like a fool!”

 

Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion yells out, with a snort, “And a fool you will be when Sailor Moon pounds you into the dirt! Don't underestimate this one! She may look like a fool and she may be foolish sometimes, but a Sailor Soldier of such power and skill can't be underestimate, idiot!” Sailor Tin Nyanko winches from her leader's harsh tone.

 

Sailor Iron Mouse asks, curiously, “What shall we do then Heavy Metal Papillion-sama?”

 

Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion says, with a serious tone, “We shall wait until they are really focused on those other fools like the Orichalcos and the Society of Light and then we shall strike.”

 

Queen Beryl says, with an evil sly grin, “I like how you think. We shall gather energy to restore the Negaverse and our armies to assist.”

 

Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion says, with a nod and evil smile, “Thank you, Queen Beryl.”

 

However, Queen Beryl and Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion thought at the same time, with evil sly grins, “Fool!”

 

(The following day; At Duel Academy's harbor)

 

The next morning, we find Aster Phoenix leaving his private yacht tied into the harbor with his duel disk attached to his left wrist and his dueling deck inside of his duel disk.

 

Aster thinks in his mind, with a serious tone, “Well, another day has pasted and I've still got no leads to my father's card! Maybe Rei was right on fighting those Society of Light goons will led me nowhere! Maybe the card isn't here on Duel Academy at all or I would have heard something about it! Maybe it is somewhere else! I should look into any `strange happenings' on the Pro Circuit and that could give me my answer.” But as Aster was walking the pathway out of the harbor and deeper into the island, a large cyclone of flames appears in front of him and he yelps out, “What in the world?!” But then as soon as the flames appears, they vanished to reveal a group of humanoid figures and one in particular caught Aster's attention.

 

The humanoid figure has a human-like look with piercing golden eyes with wild reddish-orange hair. He has orange demonic marks on his cheeks and he is wearing a golden crown with a phoenix symbol in the center, a kimono similar to Sesshomaru's, expect that it is orange and yellow in color, in which were under golden samurai armor with a katana by his waist.

 

This guy says, with a deep male tone, “So, this is where Lady Melody is right now? I have to say that the people of this time really know how to build grand shrines and buildings. I can't believe that little village of Edo turned into that huge city known as Tokyo. This place certain has wonders. However, Lady Melody is waiting me and my future mate can't be waiting long!” Soon after, the figure and his `look-a-likes' are engulfed by a pillar of flames and when the flames fade away, they are gone.

 

Aster asks, perplexed, “What was that all about?”

 

(A short time soon after; In front of the Slifer Red dorm)

 

In front of the Slifer Red dorm, we find a group of Slifer Red, Ra Yellow, and Obelisk Blue students preparing the area for the latest Duel Monsters Spirit Day celebration. Among those that are preparing for the celebrating are our heroes and heroines with some of them showing off in their costumes.

 

Hinata is wearing a costume of a Harpy Lady covered in Cyber Shield armor along with Sakura and Hinata says, blushing, “So, Naruto-kun, what do you think?”

 

Naruto says, blushing himself, “Y-You look great, Hinata!”

 

Hinata asks, curiously, “Really?”

 

Naruto says, with a smile, “Yeah! You look really awesome!”

 

Sakura tells Hinata, with a sly grin, “Told you so!”

 

On the meanwhile, Jade is showing off her costume, which is a Dark Magician Girl costume, and she asks Jordan, with a sly smile, “So, what do you think Jordy?”

 

Jordan says, with a major blush at how his girlfriend looks in her Dark Magician Girl costume, “You l-look s-so b-beautiful, Jade-chan.”

 

Jade asks, with a blush, “Really?”

 

Jordan says, with a nod, “You look awesome, Jade-chan!”

 

Jade says, with a loving smile, “Thank you, Jordy.”

 

Keiko shows herself as Fox Fire and she asks, with a smile, “What do you think?”

 

Hikari, looking like Vampire Lady, says, with a sly smile, “You look awesome, Kei!”

 

Yusuke, reluctantly coming out as Vampire Lord, says, with a snort, “I can't believe that you choose this costume for me!”

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “Come on, Yusuke! You don't look so bad!”

 

Yusuke says, with a snort, “I feel… Ugh! Couldn't you have gotten me a better costume? There are a lot better costumes than this!”

 

On the meanwhile, we find Syrus, wearing a Black Luster Soldier costume made for his size, looks over himself and he says, with a smile, “This isn't bad.”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “Um, Syrus-sempai?” Syrus looks over to the source and he gives a major blush as he sees Hotaru wearing her own Dark Magician Girl costume.

 

Syrus asks, surprised, “H-Hotaru?”

 

Hotaru says, with a nod, “Y-Yes. How do you like my costume?”

 

Syrus replies, nervously and with a major blush, “I-It's great, Hotaru.”

 

Hotaru asks, curiously, “Really?”

 

Syrus says, with a nervous blush on his cheeks, “Y-Yeah. You are q-quite b-beautiful, Hotaru-chan.”

 

Hotaru says, with a major blush, “T-Thank you.” On the meanwhile, Amara dressed in a Harpie Queen's costume, Michelle dressed in a Cure Mermaid costume with a fin that allows her to walk, and Trista is wearing a Silent Magician LV8 costume are watching this with Michelle and Trista having smiles on their faces.

 

Amara says, with a low annoyed tone, “I can't believe that we allowed her to do this.”

 

Michelle says, with a kind smile, “I think that it is great.”

Trista says, with a smile, “Yes. It will give our Firefly to come out of her shell.”

 

Amara asks Trista, curiously, “Do you know something about Hotaru having her own prince in her past life?”

 

Trista replies, with a sly smile and plain tone, “I can't reveal that to you until the time is right.”

 

Amara asks, suspiciously, “What's that supposed to mean?”

 

Michelle gently pulls Amara by her left ear and she says, with a sickly sly tone, “Now, Amara, you will not interfere. Our little Firefly is growing up and she will find people that she likes. It looks like that she found someone anyway and you won't stop it, understand.”

 

Amara says, a bit nervously, “Yes, Michelle.”

 

Next, with Digidestined, we find Yolei, dressed as Allure Queen LV7, asks Ken, with a loving sly tone, “So, what do you think, sweetie?”

 

Ken, who is wearing a Lord of the Red costume, tells Yolei, nervously and with a flush on his cheeks, “Y-You look really great, Yolei.”

 

Yolei says, with a smile, “Thanks, Ken-kun.” Yolei gives him a quick kiss on the cheeks for his compliment. On the meanwhile, we find Kari dressed up in a Magician Valkyria costume facing her boyfriend who is wearing a special Elemental Hero Neos costume designed by Washu.

 

Kari tells Davis, amazed, “Oh, wow! Davis, you look incredible!”

Davis says, with a smile, “And you look beautiful, my lovely Spellcaster.”

 

Kari tells Davis, with a blush, “Oh, Dai-kun! Cut it out!” Davis then scoops Kari into his arms, bridal style, and he kisses her on the lips in which she returns the kiss.

 

TK, who is wearing a Magician of Black Chaos costume, can't help to smirk at this and he thinks in his mind, “Same old Davis!”

 

Next, we find Jaden, wearing a special Rainbow Neos costume designed by Washu, is by his girlfriend Alexis, who is wearing a special Ice Queen costume designed by Washu, causing Tyranno, who is wearing his own Black Tyranno costume, to say, amazed, “Wow! That costume is incredible, Sarge!”

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Thanks, Hassleberry!”

 

Atticus, who is wearing a Panther Warrior costume, says, awe-struck, “Wow, Sissy! Now, that's a costume! You do like royalty!”

 

Alexis says, with a sigh, “Thanks, Atti… I think.” On the meanwhile, we find Inuyasha, Melody, Zera, Inu no Taishou, and Izayoi observing the preparation for the festivities.

 

Izayoi says, amazed, “I must say that these times have the most incredible celebrations.”

 

Zera says, with a plain tone, “And unusual. Dressing up like creatures from this time's reincarnation of Shadow Games is quite `interesting'.”

 

Melody says, with a plain tone, “Well, I say that it is downright weird if you ask me.”

 

Inu no Taishou says, with a kind smile, “Well, we come from a different time. We must not judge them and their traditions and celebrations.”

 

Just then Kagome's voice calls out, with a somewhat nervous tone, “Inuyasha?” Everyone looks to the source of the voice to see Kagome wearing a Wingweaver costume while Sanosake is wearing Archlord Zerato costume.

 

Inuyasha asks, surprised, “Kagome?”

 

Kagome says, with a smile, “What do you think? This is my costume. It is the Fairy Duel Monster Wingweaver.” Inuyasha blushes because while the costume is not very revealing, it does give Kagome a sexy feminine look.

 

Inuyasha replies, stuttering, “W-Well, I think that it looks nice, Kagome.”

Kagome asks, curiously, “Really?”

 

Inuyasha replies, nervously, “Y-Yeah.” Izayoi gives a giggle at this while Melody and Zera give annoyed looks at this. But before she could say or think of anything, a new demonic aura comes to her nose.

 

Melody thinks in her mind, stunned, “No! No, it can't be! How did he get here?!”

 

Inuyasha also smells the aura and he yells out, annoyed, “Oh no!”

 

Sanosake asks, curiously, “What is it, Inuyasha?”

 

Inu no Taishou says, with a serious tone, “A new demonic aura is in the area.” Just then a loud yelp comes from nearby and the group looks to see everyone see a pillar of flames appears in their midst.

 

Kagome says, surprised, “I remember that pillar of flames!” As the pillar of flames fade away, the group of mysterious demons appears in front of everyone.

 

Melody stares at the leader and she yells out, in her mind, “Oh no! It's him! What is that overgrown bird doing here?”

 

Immediately, Rei, in Elemental Hero Lady Heat costume designed by Washu, runs forward and she says, preparing her talismans, “What do you want here?! If you plan to start trouble, you've got it!”

 

The leader of the group says, with a gentle smile, “We are not here to start trouble, young miko. We are just here to look for some friends of mine and my future mate.”

Serena, wearing a Guardian Angel Joan costume, asks, curiously, “Mate?”

 

Immediately, Kagome comes out into the open and she says, with a smile, “Feng!”

 

The leader of the group replies, with a smile, “Lady Kagome!” The leader of the group says, with a curious tone, “Interesting choice of clothing, Lady Kagome.”

 

Tenchi, wearing a Dark Magician costume, asks Kagome, “Kagome, you know him?”

 

Kagome says, with a nod, “Yep! His name is Feng and this is the Phoenix Demon tribe.”

 

Lita, wearing an Amazoness Paladin costume, asks, curiously, “Phoenix Demon tribe?”

 

Kagome says, with a nod, “Yes. I encounter the Phoenix Demon tribes during my adventures in the Feudal Era with my friends. A similar situation to what happened with Koga and the Wolf Demon tribe happened with them with Melody defeating Feng, their leader, in battle.”

 

Feng says, with a sly smile, “Indeed. And where is my future mate?”

 

Melody yells out, very annoyed tone in voice, “I am not your future mate!” Immediately, everyone looks to see Inuyasha, Melody, with a very annoyed look on her face, Zera, Sanosake, Inu no Taishou, and Izayoi coming forward.

 

Izayoi says, with a sly smile, “I didn't know that you had an `interest' Melody.”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “Mom! I don't like this rotten bird! He just keeps saying that he loves me just because I beat his butt! It is his tribe's tradition that someone beats their members in battle that they have to marry them!”

 

Davis asks Kagome, curiously, “Is this true?”

 

Kagome tells Davis, with a nervous smile, “Yeah! That's the tradition of their tribe, but it looks like that Feng does have feelings for Melody…”

 

Melody yells out, angrily, “Don't you dare finish that sentence miko!”

 

Feng tells Melody, with a smile, “Ah, Lady Melody! Radiant as ever!”

 

Melody tells Feng, annoyed, “Cut that out, bird brain! If you think that your dumb flattery is going to get me, you are far gone in sanity!”

 

Inu no Taishou says, with a smile, “Well, I must say that he is a fine young man.”

 

Melody yells out, stunned, “Dad! You are not helping!”

 

Feng says, stunned, “The Great Inu no Taishou?! It is an honor!”

 

The Phoenix Demon tribe gasp in shock and Inu no Taishou says, with a plain tone, “The honor is mine.” Inu no Taishou says, motioning to Izayoi, “And this is my lovely wife and mate, Izayoi.”

 

Feng asks, curiously, “But I thought that you and Lady Izayoi were…?”

 

Izayoi points to the halo over her head and she says, with a smile, “Oh, we are. But Lord Koenma granted us temporary time in the Mortal World to help train my children in the use of their human Shinobi abilities until the evils that plague this school are done.”

 

Feng asks, curiously, “Interesting. So the rumors about you are true? That you were an elite ninja of your day that could fight demons?”

 

Izayoi says, with a slight blush, “I'm not one to brag, but yes, I was one of the great kunoichi of my time. So, I heard that you had an `interest' in my young daughter, Melody? You are quite a fine man.”

 

Melody yells out, embarrassed and annoyed, “Mother, stop it! Don't encourage this bird-brain!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a snort, “For once, I agree with Melody, mother.”

 

Feng says, with a plain tone, “Ah, Lord Inuyasha. It is good to see you, again. I see that you and Lady Kagome are still together through you haven't claimed her as your `mate', yet.”

 

Kagome blushes plenty and Inuyasha tells Feng, with an annoyed snort, “You know, bird-brain, you had better watch it.”

Feng says, with a smile, “I did not mean as an insult or you forcing yourself on Lady Kagome. I was just wondering why you haven't become fully `committed' yet.”

 

Inuyasha slaps himself on the forehead and he yells out, annoyed, “Kagome is still a human teenager, idiot!”

 

Feng says, with a shrug, “Why should that matter? Human nobles set up marriages for their children when they are very young.”

 

Inuyasha shakes his head and Kagome tells Feng, with a kind smile, “Things work different in this era, Feng. There are still `arranged marriages', but they aren't as common anymore and they aren't usually set up when the children are too young.”

 

Feng says, with a curious look, “Interesting.”

 

Inu no Taishou asks Feng, curiously, “So, my daughter defeated you in battle?”

 

Feng says, with a nod, “Yes. That fiend Naraku, set us up against Lady Melody, Lord Inuyasha, and their group with some dirty tricks of his and I had fought your daughter. Ah, yes. It is a battle that I can't forget. Even through I lost, it was a thing of beauty to see your daughter in combat. Ah, yes. I knew that she was only mate for someone like me.”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “Oh, get a life, bird!” Melody then turns her right shoulder and looks away from him.

 

Feng says, with an amused giggle, “I see that your tone of voice hasn't changed one bit, Lady Melody. It is wonderful to see you again.” Feng then uses super-speed to go over and kisses her right hand in which in return Melody beat him into the ground with her declaring the words `Die, bird!' and such before her mother and father yanked her off him. However, as a Phoenix Demon, Feng easily got up to his feet and flames started to quickly heal his wounds which were many from Melody's beating. Feng says, with a smile, “My. I see that your strength has greatly too. I am not surprised about you. Your power amazes me once again, my dear Lady Melody.”

 

Melody thinks in her mind, annoyed, “Oh, gag me!”

 

Kagome asks Feng, “Anyway, Feng, how did you get here?”

 

Just then Koenma appears and he says, with a plain tone, “I would be responsible for that!”

 

Davis and Yusuke yell out in unison, “Would you cut that out?!”

 

Koenma says, with a plain tone, “Sorry. By the way, Yusuke, nice costume.” Yusuke gives Koenma a really annoyed look at his `comment' on his costume.

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “You brought them here?”

 

Koenma says, with a plain tone, “With the immense amount of evil being around here, I thought that it would be best.”

 

Feng says, with a wide smile, “I assured Lord Koenma that we will aid Lady Melody, Lord Inuyasha, Lady Kagome, and their allies in battle.”

 

Inuyasha and Melody think in their minds at the same time, drolly, “Yeah, right! Like you are any help, bird-brain!”

 

Ino, who is wearing a beautiful Dark Witch costume, asks, curiously, “What could go wrong on a day like this?”

 

Serena, Rei, Kari, and plenty of the others reply in unison, “You have no idea!”

 

(Going inside of the headquarters of the Akatsuki on Academy Island; at this time)

 

Within the headquarters of the Akatsuki on Academy, we find the remaining members of the Akatsuki, Madara, Pein, Konan, Zetsu, and Kisame, assembled together in another meeting.

 

Madara asks Pein, “So, you have a feeling for their power?”

 

Pein says, with a nod, “Indeed. Jiraiya-sama did surprise me with his `Sage Mode' ability, but it is nothing to be too worried about.” Pein says, with a serious tone, “However, there are some powerful members in the group and Serena Tsukino might have trained plenty of them.”

 

Konan says, with a plain tone, “Indeed, Pein-sama. She is one of the best Kunoichi in the world.”

 

Madara says, plainly, “Through it is curious why didn't use your bloodline against you, Pein.”

 

Pein says, with a nod, “Indeed. It is curious to wonder why she didn't do so as of yet.”

 

Konan asks, curiously, “Do you think that she is holding back?”

 

Pein says, with a plain tone, “Most likely. Until the time is right for her.”

 

Madara says, with a sly smile, “Maybe we should make the time right for her.”

 

Kisame says, with an evil sly grin, “Ooh, I can't wait to hear this.”

 

(Back with our heroes and heroines; Sometime later)

 

Returning with our heroes and heroines, we find the Duel Monsters Spirit Day celebration in full swing and we find Sakura, wearing an Injection Fairy Lilly costume, being with Sasuke, who was reluctantly wearing a Dark Magician costume of his own, while Ino gives an annoyed look at this.

 

Ino says, annoyed, “Oh, man! Why does Forehead Girl get all the luck? She is taking with Sasuke!” Just then Ino bumps into someone and she was about to yell when she finds that it was TK with a blush on his cheeks.

 

TK tells Ino, with a kind smile, “Sorry about that.”

 

Ino says, with a slight blush over her cheeks and with a mock annoyed look on her face, “Okay, but don't do it again.”

 

TK says, with a kind smile, “No problem.”

 

Ino can't help forming a blush from TK's smile and Ino thinks in her mind, “Why can't help myself to blush at this kid's smile? Okay, he is quite cute, but he isn't as good as Sasuke-kun.”

 

On the meanwhile, we find Serena asks Darien, who was in a Dark Paladin costume, “Is this wonderful Darien-kun?”

 

Darien says, with a smile, “Yes, it is.”

 

Just then Rini appears in an Injection Fairy Lilly costume and she yells out, “Hey, mom! Dad!”

 

Serena yells out, flabbergasted, “Rini! Do you know what you are wearing?!”

 

Rini says, with a smile, “Yep! What do you think? You like it!”

 

Serena gives a moan and Darien tells Serena, with a loving smile, “She is as much as your daughter as she is mine.”

 

Serena moans out in her mind, mentally, “Don't remind me.”

 

Syrus and Hotaru, in their respective costumes, are together and Syrus tells Hotaru, with a major blush in his cheeks, “Hotaru-chan, why did you pick that costume?”

 

Hotaru tells Syrus, with a nervous blush, “Well, it is because… you like the Dark Magician Girl, right?”

 

Syrus asks, surprised, “You picked that costume just because of me? Why?”

 

Hotaru tells Syrus, with a major hue on her cheeks, “Well, it is because… I… um…”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “It's because she likes you, Syi!” Immediately, Hotaru and Syrus look to see Jade and Jordan, wearing a Dark Magician Knight costume, walking up to them with their future daughter, Celeste, who is wearing Dunames Dark Witch costume, walking up to them.

 

Syrus asks, perplexed, “Huh?”

 

Jade says, with a sly grin, “It is quite obvious, cousin! Hotaru-chan really likes you!”

 

Jordan asks Hotaru, with a smile, “Is this true, Hotaru-chan?” Hotaru tries to reply, but she is unable to and she just nods her head with a major flush in her cheeks.

 

Syrus tells Hotaru, with a major blush in his cheeks, “Well, I always thought that you were… are…”

 

Jade tells Syrus, with a sly grin, “Come on, Syrus! Just tell her that you like her!” Hotaru and Syrus give major flushes from their cheeks as they look at each other.

 

Syrus asks Hotaru, nervously, “W-Would you like to g-go out with me?”

 

Hotaru replies, with a major blush, “S-Sure, Syrus-sempai.”

 

Syrus tells Hotaru, nervously, “J-Just call me `Syrus'.”

 

Hotaru says, with a nod, “Okay, Syrus-kun.” Syrus really blushes from the `kun' part that Hotaru added and the two of them take hands as they head off together.

 

Jade tells Jordan, with a smile, “Is that sweet, Jordy?”

 

Jordan says, with a nod, “Yes, Jade-chan. I think that it is.” On the meanwhile, Ryoko is wearing her own Amazoness Fighter costume and she is fighting Ayeka, wearing a Fire Sorcerer costume, fighting over Tenchi, who is wearing Gilford the Lightning costume.

 

Davis and Kari are watching this and Kari asks, curiously, “Don't they ever stop?”

 

Davis says, with a shrug, “I don't think so, Kari.” With other couples, we find Hinata and Naruto close together with Jaden and Alexis enjoying their time together with Digimon like Veemon and Gatomon coming together.

 

With Keiko and Yusuke, she tells him, loving, “Isn't this great, Yusuke?”

 

Yusuke says, with a snort, “Yeah. But that is as long as you aren't dressed like a dork.”

 

Keiko tells Yusuke, with a kind smile, “Come on, Yusuke. You don't look that bad.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sigh, “Whatever you say, Kei.”

 

Just then some commotion is heard and Tyranno asks, curiously, “Sam Hill! What is that noise?”

 

Rika, wearing her own Vampire Lady costume, says, with a dark snort, “Trouble.” Our heroes and heroines look to see a group of SOL members, male and female, assembled in front of the celebration.

 

Rei yells out, with a dark annoyed tone, “Hey! We didn't invite your dorks!”

 

One male SOL member yells out, with a cold strong tone, “Well, we crashed! You think that Zane Truesdale was enough to stop us?! Ha! We managed to get him away by luring him with some of members. That nonbeliever is always looking to make himself by `top dog' and we just set the bait!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, darkly, “I think that you forgot what happens to the bait!” Everyone then looks to see Zane Truesdale walking up to them. Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “I must admit that I was a bit `eager' to crush you white dorks, but then again, they proved a bit too easy.”

 

A female SOL member says, annoyed, “Oh, great! Great plan, dweeb!”

 

Takara says, wearing a modest Storming Wynn costume and with a dark sly smile, “Well, it looks like you are outnumbered and trapped, dweebs!”

 

Erin says, with an emotionless tone, “So, I think that all of you had `better start saying your prayers', as they say.”

 

Rika says, with a dark serious tone, “Well, I think that it is time all of you dweebs to get your butt kicks!”

 

Jade says, having an Academy Duel Disk with a dueling deck attached to her left wrist, “And I think that I'll start off.”

 

A female SOL member with a light blond hair that goes to mid-waist and light brown eye says, while putting on a duel disk, “Okay, nonbelievers, I'll start off! The name is Tilly.” The female SOL puts her dueling deck inside and the two of them activate their duel disk, their life-points become 4000 life-points each on their life-point counters of their duel disks, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

Tilly and Jade yell out in unison, “Let's duel!”

 

Starting Scores:

Jade: 4000

Tilly: 4000

 

Tilly says, drawing a card, “I'll go first!” Tilly says, putting one card on her duel disk, “I'll start by playing my Warrior Lady of the Wasteland in attack mode!” Just then Warrior Lady of Wasteland (1100/1200) appears on the field in attack mode. Tilly says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “And I'll end with a face-down!”

 

Jade says, drawing one card, “My turn, dweeb!” When dark shadows appear in the area, Jade says, with a dark smile, “That's right, dweeb! It's time for a Shadow Game!” The SOL members gasp in shock and Jade says, putting one card on her duel disk, “I call my Luster Dragon in attack mode!” Just then Luster Dragon (1900/1200) appears on the field in attack mode. Jade says, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Stamping Destruction spell card! With this card, since I have a Dragon-type monster on the field, I can destroy one spell or trap card on the field and the owner loses five hundred life-points!” Just then a giant foot destroys Tilly's face-down card and she yelps as she is shocked while she loses 500 life-points. Jade states, with a dark sly grin, “By the way, did I mention that every time that we lose life-points, we get a nasty shock?” Jade yells out, strongly, “Now, my dragon, attack with Breath of Fire!” Luster Dragon attacks flames from its mouth, destroying Warrior Lady of Wasteland, and Tilly yells out as she is shocked again while losing another 800 life-points.

 

Tilly says, taking out her deck, “Ugh! My monster has a special ability! It allows me to summon one Earth monster from my deck with fifteen hundred attack points or less!” Tilly takes a card from her deck and she says, putting the card on her duel disk, “And I choose my Alligator's Sword!” Just then Alligator's Sword (1500/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Tilly reshuffles her deck and puts her deck back in her duel disk.

 

Jade says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “I'll end my turn with a couple of face-downs.”

 

Current Score:

Jade: 4000

Tilly: 2700

 

Tilly says, drawing a card, “It's my move!” Tilly says, putting one card on her duel disk, “I release my Alligator's Sword to summon my Guardian Sphinx in defense mode!” Just then Alligator's Sword vanishes and Guardian Sphinx (1700/2400) appears on the field in defense mode. Tilly says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I release my Sphinx monster to play my Exxod, Master of the Guard in defense mode!” Guardian Sphinx cracks apart and bursts allowing Exxod, Master of The Guard (0/4000) to come to the field in defense mode. Tilly says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I place this card face-down and end my turn!”

 

Jade says, drawing a card, “Is that it? Lame!” Jade says, putting one card on her duel disk, “Now, I summon my Dark Resonator in attack mode!” Immediately, the Tuner monster, Dark Resonator (1300/300), a ghost-like monster with a tuning fork and rod in its hands and drums attached to its back, comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Tilly states, stunned, “You have those Tuner monsters too?!”

 

Jade says, with a sly smile, “And now, I tune my level three Dark Resonator with my Luster Dragon!” Dark Resonator taps its two tuning fork and rod and turns into three stars which turn into three rings that surround Luster Dragon making it become transparent. Jade takes out a Synchro Monster card from her Extra deck as a column of light comes onto the field and she yells out, putting the card on her duel disk, “Meet Explode Wing Dragon!” Out of the light, Explode Wing Dragon (2400/1600), a large dark grey dragon with orange dragon wings and red eyes as well as orange `fins' coming out of the back of its head, comes to the field in attack mode. Jade yells out, with a dark sly tone, “And by the way, when my Explode Wing Dragon attacks a monster with lower attack power than mine, the monster is automatically destroyed and its attack power is taken out of your life-points! Attack!” Explode Wing Dragon launches a sphere of flames at Exxod and it impacts causing Exxod to explode and shattering it into pieces.

 

Tilly says, with a cold smile, “Ha! My monster has no attack power!”

 

Jade says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “That's why I have this dork! I play Defense Damage trap card!” Jade's face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with Big Shield Gardner gets his shield shattered apart while another warrior monster gets hit by the pieces of the shattered shield. Jade says, with a serious tone, “Thanks to this card, when a defense mode monster is destroyed, you lose life-points equal to the defense points of the destroyed monster!”

 

Tilly calls out, shocked, “No way!” Just then the remains of Exxod slam into Tilly and she cries out in pain and agony as she is shocked as she loses 4000, life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Jade: 4000

Tilly: 0

 

With the end of the duel, Tilly collapses to the ground as the shadows and holograms fade away with Davis yelling out, excitedly and darkly, “Awesome!”

 

Yusuke says, with a dark sly grin, “That's another dork down!”

 

Jordan says, with his duel disk that has a dueling deck inside, “My turn, dweebs!”

 

A male SOL with light blond hair and tale eyes comes forward and he yells out, “The name is Terrance and I'm going to win this duel nonbeliever!” He attached a duel disk to his left wrist and puts a dueling deck inside.

 

Jordan says, with a dark sly tone, “We'll see about that!” The two of them activate their duel disks, their life-points counters display 4000 life-points each, and both of them draw five cards from their decks.

 

“Game on!” Jordan and Terrance yell out in unison as their duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Jordan: 4000

Terrance: 4000

 

Jordan says, drawing a card, “I'll go first dweeb!” Just then dark clouds and dark shadows appear around them and Jordan says, with a dark sly grin, “And this is a Shadow Game!”

 

Terrance says, with a cold serious tone, “I'm not afraid of you!”

 

Jordan says, putting one card on his duel disk, “I play my Frequency Magician in attack mode!” Just then Frequency Magician (800/400) appears on the field in attack mode. Jordan says, putting one card in the spell/trap slot, “And now, I play my Double Summon spell card! This card allows me to play another monster and I choose my Skilled Dark Magician!” Just then Skilled Dark Magician (1900/1700) appears on the field in attack mode. Jordan says, with a dark serious tone, “And if you need to know that my Frequency Magician is a Tuner monster!”

 

Terrance calls out, stunned, “Say what?!”

 

Jordan calls out, with a dark serious tone, “I tune my Frequency Magician to my Skilled Dark Magician to Synchro Summon my Tempest Magician!” Frequency Magician turns into two stars that turn into two rings that surround Skilled Dark Magician making him become transparent while Jordan takes a Synchro Monster card from his Extra deck. When a column of light appears, Jordan puts the Synchro Monster card on his duel disk and Tempest Magician (2200/1400) appears on the field in attack mode. Jordan says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Card of Sanctity forcing both of us to draw until we have six cards in our hands!” Terrance then draws one card and Jordan draws four new cards. Jordan then discards five cards from hand and he says, slyly, “Then I play my Magician ability and discard five cards to add five Spell Counters on her to add to the one that was put on when she was summoned! It makes six counters!”

 

Terrance asks, with a cold nasty tone, “So, what?!”

 

Jordan says, with a dark sly grin, “It's my magician's final ability! By removing all spell counters on her, you take five hundred points of damage for each one that I remove and since I removed six, you lose three grand in life-points!”

 

Terrance calls out, “No!” Just then Terrance cries out in pain as he is shocked by dark lightning from the dark clouds as he loses 3000 life-points.

 

Jordan says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll end my turn with a face-down.”

 

Current Score:

Jordan: 4000

Terrance: 1000

 

Terrance yells out, with a cold angered tone, “You are going to pay for that dweeb!” Terrance draws one card, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, “I play my Tribute to the Doomed! By discarding a card from my hand, your magician takes a hike!” Terrance discards one card from his hand and Tempest Magician is destroyed!” Terrance then says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “Next up: Monster Reborn! I can use this to revive the monster that I sent to my grave and it is my Dragonic Knight!” Just then Dragonic Knight (2800/2300) appears on the field in attack mode. Terrance calls out, with a cold serious tone, “Now, time for a taste of your own medicine! Attack!” Dragonic Knight then charges it to attack Jordan directly.

 

Jordan pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, “Wrong! I play my Dimension Wall trap card!” Jordan's face-down card is revealed to be the Dimension Wall trap card and Jordan calls out, with a dark sly tone, “Thanks to this card, you take the damage from your direct attack than me!”

 

Terrance calls out, stunned, “No! This can't be! I had the Light on my side!” Just then Dragonic Knight goes through a portal and appears in front of Terrance causing him to cry out as his own monster attacks him and he gets shocked from head to toe while losing 2800 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Jordan: 4000

Terrance: 0

 

With the end of the duel, the shadows and final holograms fade away as Terrance collapses to the ground with Jordan taking in a sigh of relief.

 

Alexis calls out, excitedly and darkly, “Great work, Jordy!”

 

Celeste says, with a dark sly smile, “You did great, dad.”

 

Jordan says, with a smile, “Thanks, Celeste.”

 

Jade tells Jordan, with a dark loving tone, “Celeste is right, sweetie.” Jade then kisses Jordan right on the lips causing his cheeks to become really red. As the SOL members are fearful as the Treasured Sailor Scouts with duel disk that have dueling decks inside surround them.

 

Erin says, with a dark plain tone, “Where do you think that you are going? We are not done yet.”

 

Melissa says, with a plain tone, “Indeed.”

 

Rika says, with a dark sly grin, “We're not happy that you interrupted our party.”

 

Takara says, with a dark smile, “And it is time for you to pay the price.”

 

Celeste says, with a dark smile, “I hope that you are ready to duel.” The SOL members yelp out in fear as they prepare to face the Treasured Era Sailor Scouts in a duel.

 

(In an unknown location; on the meanwhile)

 

Deep within some kind of underground cavern, we find three people assembled at a table wearing strange black cloaks with strange Native American markings on them.

 

The first one, his cloak having red markings, says, with a dark cold plain tone, “So, it is true. The `Signers' have indeed returned.”

 

The second one, his cloak having blue markings, asks, curiously, “Who are they?”

 

The first one says, with a dark plain tone, “Takeru Takashi, Yusuke Urameshi, Keiko Yukimura, Serena Tsukino also known as Sailor Moon, and Daisuke Motomiya.” The second one's eye quirks up at Davis' name and the red cloaked figure say, “You seem anxious. You wish to duel him?”

 

The second one says, with a sinister sly smile, “Yes. It is finally time for my payback against him and his sister. And it is not surprising that I have been revived and Davis is a `Signer'.”

 

The first one says, with a dark cold plain tone, “As you wish. However, if you duel him, don't end things too soon.”

 

The second one says, with a sinister sly grin, “Oh no. I won't. I will make sure that he suffers.” The second one then displays his right arm which shows the Nazca Line mark for the Giant in dark violet in his right arm and it glows with a sinister violet glow filled with evil and darkness.

 

(Returning back to our heroes and heroines; A short time soon after)

 

Returning to our heroes and heroines, the SOL members that `attacked' earlier are lying on the ground in heap as they are unconscious from dueling with the Treasured Era Scouts.

 

Nyoko says, with a sly grin, “Well, that was fun!”

 

Erin says, with a plain tone, “Another group of Society of Light members are down.”

Kagome says, with a sigh, “Hopefully, this situation will be getting better.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sigh, “Don't count on it. I've got a bad feeling.”

 

Melody asks, curiously, “What do you mean Inuyasha?” Just then everyone hears Davis' yelp out in pain and everyone looks to see Davis clutching his right arm in pain as his `Mark of the Dragon' glows brightly.

 

Kari asks, worriedly, “Dai-kun, what's wrong?”

 

Davis says, winching in pain, “My mark… it feels like it is drilling into my arm.”

 

Yeshua asks, curiously, “Drilling into your arm?”

 

Jaden asks, curiously, “You know something bro?”

 

Yeshua says, with a plain tone, “Yes. The `Dragon's Birthmark' would only do something like that for only one reason: The coming of a true `Dark Signer'.”

 

Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Kira yells out, stunned, “Hold up? You mean that those guys that you told us that are enemies of the `Singers' are coming here?!”

 

Yeshua says, with a plain tone, “Yes. The `Mark of the Dragon' would react like that for only one reason and it looks like that Davis has become his or her target.”

 

Tenchi asks, stunned, “Davis is being targeted by the `Dark Signers'?!”

 

Yeshua says, with a plain tone, “It is the only reason that his mark is reacting and not the others. It is a message from the `Dark Signers'.”

Davis says, drolly, “Don't I feel special? Man! This is not good.”

 

Tai yells out, annoyed, “Is there no end to these evil forces?!”

 

Yeshua says, with a plain tone, “The end will come by the choices that you make.”

 

Rei says, annoyed, “Some help, pal.”

 

Davis thinks in his mind, looking into the sky, “And why don't I get a really bad feeling about this attack?”

 

(Elsewhere on Duel Academy; A short time soon after)

 

On top of the active volcano on Academy Island, we find the mysterious `Dark Signer' with the Giant mark on his right arm looking down at Duel Academy.

 

The `Dark Signer' says, with a sinister sly tone, “Soon, Motomiya, you and I will have reckoning and I will have my revenge against you!” The `Dark Signer' then gives off a sinister laugh that could shivers down the spines of even the bravest man.

 

Next time in Chapter 29: Multiple Assaults: Our heroes and heroines prepare for the arrival of the first `Dark Signer' and they won't have to wait very long when they hear about another attack on the Digital World. When they arrive, our heroes and heroines get a blast from Davis' and Jun's pasts when the `Dark Signer' is revealed to be a former friend that supposed to be long since dead!

In the aftermath of the duel, the Orichalcos decides to make its move by targeting the friends of our heroes and heroines. While they are training, the Orichalcos makes its move and tries to take away the soul of one of our heroes and heroines with the Seal of Orichalcos, but when they win the duel, something totally unexpected happens and a great darkness is unleashed! In the aftermath of these duels, Yeshua and Koenma reveal the full story about the `Signers' and the `Dark Signers'. However, there is even more when another `Dark Signers' makes her appearance and she has a deadly connection to Keiko and the `Black Rose Witch'! Keiko will be in her own duel of her life with this next `Dark Signer' and the others can only watch as Keiko fights to survive!

The Society of Light takes advantage of this to put Melody and Kagome into a difficult situation with the Paradox brother as soon as the Light of Destruction possessed leader of the SOL learns something very important about Melody! What is this important fact about Inuyasha's sister?! And can our heroes and heroines survive the battles with the Orichalcos and the `Dark Signers'! Find out the answers to these and other important questions on the next `Twilight Wars'! See you next time!

 

I'm sorry that I have been gone for so long, but after my time with FedEx Ground, I wasn't exactly myself for a few months. I was suffering from nasty `mental problems' and I haven't fully recovered. I'm not sure when I will update again, but I'll try my best to get back onto the road. Speaking of which, my family's road has been tough lately. However, there are chances that it will get better for all of us in the future. I hope that you will pray for all of us and I hope to see you again in the future. Anyway, before I go, I would like to give thanks and credit to inu-yusukekaiba102 for the idea of Melody's status as a `Chosen Hanyou' and the plot in the next chapter with Kagome and Melody. Please read and review and I will read your reviews as soon as I can! Later and best wishes!
