Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Digimon Fan Fiction / Crossover Fan Fiction ❯ Sailor Moon Online II: SAO Shippuden ❯ Arc III: Chapter 9: Scars and Clash Through Time ( Chapter 27 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
With the last chapter, we find out what Naruto’s plan is and while it seems he has gone to the ‘dark side’, if you are knowledge of the world of Senran Kagura, you would realize that Naruto would have a point and the ninja clans from the Dead or Alive series would agree, in a way, with Naruto. And Naruto isn’t out for ‘conquest’ like a villain, he is out to what he feels is ‘reforming’ the ninja system in our heroes’ world. Now, I would like to give thanks and credit to Belletiger and Kanius and Kanius’ YuYuGiDigiMoon series, especially this author’s The Invasion of the Rajita story, for giving me permission to use the idea of Valkyrie Sailor Soldiers and everything that’s a part of them. I would also like to give thanks and credit to Matty G91 and this author’s story of Kamen Rider Lunar for giving me permission to use Kamen Rider Lunar, his looks, and everything about him as well as the UNI-SHOCKER organization.

Sailor Moon Online II: SAO Shippuden

 

(Sword Art Online II music ‘Courage’ starts)

 

As the intro starts, we see images of swords go by and reflected on the blades of the swords are images of Suguha and Leafa with the final reflection from the blades of the sword are Rika, Lisbeth, SAO and ALO forms, Keiko, Silica, SAO and ALO forms, Shion, Sinon, GGO and ALO forms, Kotone, Philia, SAO/SAW and ALO forms, Hiyori, Kuro, and Lux.

 

The next shows Princess Selene then turning into a toddler Suguha Kirigaya, who then ‘ages’ into a 13-year-old Suguha Kirigaya, warping into Suguha Kirigaya of 15-16 years of age, then into Eternal Sailor Celestial, and finally, into Valkyrie Sailor Celestial. As Valkyrie Sailor Celestial turns to the skies to see some unseen sight, Rika, Keiko, Shion/Sailor Orion, Kotone, and Hiyori appear behind her.

 

Just then it turns into images of Ancient Egypt of Atem’s time, Atlantis, the original Domino City, Neo Domino City, and ALO before we see Suguha Kirigaya looking at a ‘shooting star’ before she transforms into Valkyrie Sailor Celestial before facing an unknown figure that uses the Seal of Orichalcos that surrounds her and her enemy.

 

Next, Valkyrie Sailor Celestial and Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze are seen in two separate images which change where Suguha, then Leafa, and finally, Valkyrie Sailor Celestial are using their kendo/sword techniques. Just then Rika/Lisbeth, Keiko/Silica, Shion/Sinon/Sailor Orion, Kotone/Philia, and Hiyori/Lux are seen before we see Valkyrie Sailor Celestial, using her sword techniques, is joined by Naruto, using his famous Shadow Clones and Rasengan, in this ‘fight demonstration’.

 

Then we find Valkyrie Sailor Moon walking slowly forward until she is face to face with Valkyrie Sailor Celestial and the two of them stare at each other before Valkyrie Sailor Celestial brings out Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000) and Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon (2500/2000) with Valkyrie Sailor Moon brings out Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon (2500/2000) and Clearwing Fast Dragon (2500/2000) in which they go into an epic clash with Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Valkyrie Sailor Celestial clashing blades themselves.

 

The scene changes to Davis and Kazuto, looking a lot like his SAO avatar of Kirito, facing off against Naruto with Naruto bring out Red Nova Dragon (3500/3000) and Stardust Chronicle Spark Dragon (3000/2500) while Kazuto brings out Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity (4000/3500) and Davis brings out Shooting Star Dragon (3300/2500) along with the other Signer and Duel Dragons in which they launch into an epic titanic fight.

 

Just then we see Sailor Celestial, Sailor Orion, Lisbeth, Silica, Philia, and Lux engaged by a legion of opponents including monsters from ALO and Duel Monsters which they fight and defeat, but then a mysterious figure brings out the Divine Serpent used by Dartz, but Sailor Celestial, Lisbeth, and Silica bring out the three Legendary Dragons, Timaeus, Critias, and Hermos, and they transform into their true forms: The Legendary Knights of Atlantis where they defeat the Divine Serpent.

 

Naruto and Sailor Celestial are back to back surrounded by Sakura, Hinata, Rika, Keiko, Sailor Orion, Kotone, and Hiyori as a powerful circle brings for the three Aesir, Thor, Loki, and Odin as well as the three Egyptian God Monsters: Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra in which all of them unleash an incredible attack creating a massive bright light. From that light, Black-Winged Dragon (2800/1600) emerges along with the Crimson Dragon.

 

The scene then switches to images of Yugi Moto, Pharaoh Atem, Seto Kaiba, Joey Wheeler, Dartz, and more before switching to our heroes and heroines with images of Neo Domino City, Aincrad/SAO, ALO, the Elemental Countries including the Leaf Village, and more as images of Suguha and Naruto from childhood into their current years are seen before Suguha turns into Valkyrie Sailor Celestial and the two of them look into the distance.

 

Finally, we have different scenes where we see Naruto training and mastering the Rasengan, Leafa flying through the virtual skies of ALO, Serena becoming Sailor Moon for the first time, and leading to a scene with all of our heroes and heroines, joined by Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata, racing towards some kind of unknown destination in which it finally stop at all of them assembled together flanked by Earth, Atlantis, and the Leaf Village in the background along with the Legendary Dragons/Knights, the Signer and Duel Dragons, the Aesir, and Egyptian God Monsters.

Arc III: Chapter 9: Scars and Clash Through Time

 

May 21, 2026, Neo Domino City, Satellite Sector

 

In the streets of the Satellite Sector of Neo Domino City, Naruto is on his Duel Runner with Katsuragi on the back with Katsuragi screaming out in pure excitement.

 

Katsuragi shouts out, “Woo hoo! This is a blast!”

 

Naruto tells Katsuragi, “I told you that you would like it, Katsuragi!”

 

Katsuragi yells out, excitedly, “Less talking and more speeding, Foxy-kun! Yee-haw!” On the meanwhile, Sakura and Hinata, riding their own Duel Runners, which different colored versions of Akiza’s Bloody Rose Duel Runner with Sakura’s being pink-red in color and Hinata’s being blue-violet in color, are racing behind Naruto, Katsuragi, and Naruto’s Runner. We can see that Sakura and Hinata are wearing different colored versions of Akiza’s Duel Runner outfit with Sakura’s Runner outfit being pink and Hinata’s outfit being violet.

 

Hinata says, speaking through a communication device in her helmet, “It seems like they are having a good time.”

 

Sakura says, with a smirk, “Not surprising, Hinata. Ever since Naruto and we learned to ride these things, Naruto became a real speed freak.”

 

Hinata says, with a kind smile, “Well, Naruto-kun’s father was known for his speed.”

 

Sakura says, “True, but the Hirashin was the Second Hokage’s invention, however, the Fourth Hokage made it even better and that just was more like teleportation than speed.”

 

Hinata says, with a nod, “That’s right, but Fourth Hokage-sama used it so much to devastated the Leaf’s enemies, especially Stone, it is the reason that they called him the ‘Yellow Flash’.”

 

Sakura says, “If this keeps up, Naruto will become the ‘Kitsune Flash’, ‘Foxy Blur’, or something that they call him in the fanfiction based on the anime and manga based on our world.”

 

Hinata says, with a kind smile, “Yes, I agree.” The four shinobi continue to race around in the three Duel Runners in which plenty of people can’t help to look at them especially one certain former Signer that’s part of the current Neo Domino City police force.

 

Crow says, “Well, that’s something that you don’t see every day.” Crow decides to follow them as best as he could, but he has a feeling that following a shinobi won’t be too easy.

 

May 21, 2026, Tokyo, Odaiba District

 

Once again, we find our Digidestined of Miracles and Life, Davis Motomiya finds himself in the massive field filled of all types of Duel Monster dragons.

 

Davis says, “Here we go again.”

 

Just then a male voice says, “Not exactly, young prince.” Davis whips to the source of the voice to see none other than Elemental Hero Neos and the Neo-Spacians.

 

Davis says, “Neos! Aquos!”

 

Aquos, the Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin, responds, “Hello, Prince Davis.”

 

Davis tells Aquos, annoyed, “You know how annoyed that you keep calling me that.”

 

Dark Panther says, “You, bro, it is the way that it is.”

 

Neos says, “You are an heir to one of the two great kingdoms of the Silver Millennium.”

 

Davis says, “I’m not a prince right now, bro.”

 

Aquos says, “You can’t deny your heritage, your prince. And you are the future ‘Star Dragon King’, one of the ones that will lead many into the future.”

 

Davis says, with a sigh, “As I have been hearing, Aquos.”

 

Neos says, “I see that you remember our meeting, young prince.”

 

Flashback; August 2025

 

Davis wakes up to find himself on a sandy beach and he asks, “Where am I?” He then looks up to the sky, gasps, and he yells out, “What the heck?!” Davis then sees the planet of Jupiter in the sky just above him. Davis asks, “What is that?”

 

Just then a male voice says, “That would be the planet Jupiter, my young friend.”

 

Davis asks, confused upon seeing no one around, “Hey! Who said that?”

 

The male voice responds, coming from the water, “That would be down here, my young prince.” Davis looks towards the water to see what looks like a strange dark blue dolphin peeking out of the ocean.

 

Davis asks, curiously, “They have dolphins in outer space?”

 

Just then the ‘dolphin’ says, in the male voice that just called out to Davis, “I’m surprised that you realized that you are in outer space.”

 

Davis says, plainly, “Dude, Jupiter is right over there.”

 

The ‘dolphin’ says, curiously, “I’m surprised that you aren’t freaking out at seeing and hearing me.”

 

Davis tells the ‘dolphin’, “With what I went through, a ‘talking dolphin’ isn’t going to surprise me. Nothing really surprises me at all, dude.”

 

The ‘dolphin’ says, “As you humans say: ‘I bet that you are wrong’.”

 

Davis asks, with a smirk, “Really? Prove it.” Just then the ‘dolphin’ leaps out of the water to reveal that he is the humanoid dark blue dolphin, Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin, causing Davis’ eyes to widen causing him to ask, nervously, “Bro, do you take an IOU?”

 

Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin says, “I believe that we can put that aside since there are more important things to talk about, young prince. Now, I am a super-evolved Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin. However, you can call me Aquos for short.”

 

Davis says, a bit nervously, “Sure, Aquos.”

 

Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin AKA Aquos tells Davis, “Prince Davis, as you know, there was an infamous event of your world connected to the Silver Millennium of the past. The ‘death game’ known as Sword Art Online.”

 

Davis’ eyes widen at that and he asks, surprised and his expression becoming serious, “You know about that?!”

 

Aquos says, “Yes, young prince. And it was only the beginning.” Davis’ eyes stay wide as Aquos explains about what’s to come to him.

 

End Flashback; Return to the Present

 

Back in the present day, Davis tells Aquos, “You had a point, Aquos.”

 

Aquos says, “Indeed, my friend. It is the reasons that we added our power to yours.”

 

Neos says, “You also held the ‘spirit’ of our first partner and my creator since you used Elemental Heroes and your remind us of him.”

 

Aquos says, “You have done well in mastering Stardust Dragon’s power, young prince. However, you have a long way to go if you are to be the true ‘Star Dragon King’.”

 

Davis asks, curiously, “What do you mean?”

 

Neos says, “You have mastered Stardust Dragon’s power, but you have yet to master the power of ALL the dragons and you have yet to master our power.”

 

Aquos says, “And that’s why you are here, young prince.”

 

Davis asks, curiously, “Translation?”

 

Just then a male voice says, “Aquos means me, bro.” Davis looks over to see none other than an adult Jaden Yuki right in front of him.

 

Davis asks, amazed, “Whoa! Who are you?!”

 

Jaden responds, “Who am I? Who am I? Bro, I’m Neos’ first partner.”

 

Davis asks, surprised, “His first partner? Wait, you are…?”

 

Jaden says, with a grin, “Yep! Jaden Yuki, Elemental Hero duelist extraordinaire and first duelist to partner with the Neo-Spacians!”

 

Neos says, “As well as my creator.”

 

Davis says, looking at Jaden in amazement, “Whoa, dude!”

 

Jaden tells Davis, “Anyway, bro, ready for your test?”

 

Davis tells Jaden, “Test?”

 

Jaden tells Davis, with a grin, “A duel of course!”

 

Davis asks, a bit surprised, “Duel?”

 

Jaden tells Davis, “You are surprised, bro? To prove that you are worthy of partnering with my Neo-Spacian buds and Neos, you’ve got to show me what you got.”

 

Davis retorts, “Not like I’m chickening out, bro, but do I really have?”

 

Neos responds, with a nod, “Yes, you need to truly master our power. However, there is more to it than that.”

 

Davis asks, curiously, “More?”

 

Aquos says, “You are the warrior of Miracles and Life, young prince. However, life itself is made up of many ‘elements’ including light and darkness and you must master that darkness, Prince Davis.”

 

Davis asks, getting a serious look in his eyes, “Master the darkness?”

 

Neos says, “Indeed. The light and the dark must remain in balance and you have yet to harness the ‘dark half’ of your power.”

 

Aquos says, with a nod, “It is time for to harness that and the deeper portions of your power.”

 

Davis asks, curiously, “And you think that this duel will?”

 

Jaden says, with a shrug, “That’s what they say. I’m in it for the awesome duel. I think that it is awesome dueling someone that uses the same cards as me.” Aquos can’t help to shake his head at Jaden’s statement.

 

Davis retorts, with a grin, “Sure! Why not?”

 

Jaden tells Davis, with a sly grin, “By the way, why don’t you use your REAL Heroes deck?”

 

Davis asks, his eyes widening, “What?”

 

Jaden tells Davis, with a grin, “I just know these things, bro. You use Elemental Hero just like me, but you use a ‘different breed’ than me. I would love to see them.”

 

Davis says, with a smile, “I guess that this is a better time than ever.” Just then Davis’ Real Solid Vision duel disk appears around his left wrist as well as a dueling deck in his right hand and Davis says, stunned, “Whoa!”

 

Jaden says, with a shrug, “Yeah, it is basically how this kind of place works, dude.” Soon after, a Real Solid Vision version of Jaden’s Duel Academy Island duel disk with his dueling deck inside of his duel disk appears around his left wrist (A/N: Imagine the classic GX duel disk without the ‘solid blade’ for the Monster Card Zones and only one slot instead of the five typical slots for the spell/trap slots.). After Davis looks through the deck that appeared in his hands, he inserts it into his duel disk in which both Jaden and Davis activate their duel disks causing their decks to be shuffled and the ‘blade’ containing the Monster and Pendulum Zones to appear in which their duel disks’ touch screen display 4000 life-points for each duelist. Afterwards, as all of the dragons look on, Davis and Jaden draw five cards from their respective decks.

 

“Game on!” Jaden and Davis say in unison as their duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Davis: 4000

Jaden: 4000

 

Jaden says, with a grin, “I think that since I’m the one that’s challenging you, you should take the first move.”

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “Okay, I will! My turn! I draw!” Davis says, putting one card on his disk, “You wanted to see my REAL heroes? You got it! I start with Elemental Hero Stratos in attack mode!” Elemental Hero Stratos (1800/300) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, as a card comes out of his deck, “Thanks to Stratos’ ability, I can add one Elemental Hero from my deck to my hand!” Davis says, putting five cards into the main slot of his disk, “I end my turn with five face-down cards.”

 

Jaden says, “Five face-down cards? Talk about putting all your cards in one basket, bro.” Jaden says, drawing a card, “Okay, then, I draw!” Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Sweet! I play Polymerization!” Jaden then discards two cards from his hand causing Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000) and Elemental Hero Burstinatrix (1200/800) to appear on the field in which Jaden says, as they go into a fusion vortex, “I fuse Avian and Burstinatrix to summon one of my all-time favorite heroes!” Jaden puts a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck on his duel disk and he shouts out, “Elemental Hero Flame Wingman!” Out of the vortex, Elemental Hero Flame Wingman (2100/1200) appears on the field in attack mode in which Jaden shouts out, “Okay, attack!”

 

As Flame Wingman prepares to attack, Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “I activate my trap: A Hero Emerges!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be A Hero Emerges trap card and Davis says, with a sly smile, “I think that you know what this baby does, don’t you? When you declare an attack, you choose a card from my hand and I can play it if it is a monster!”

 

Davis displays the ONLY card currently in his hand and Jaden says, with a grin, “But since you only have one card, I can only choose that one! And I bet that it is a monster!”

 

Davis says, putting the card on his disk, “Yep! It is Elemental Hero Woodsman in defense mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Woodsman (1000/2000) appears on the field in defense mode.

 

Jaden says, with a grin, “Sweet move! I used that trick in plenty of my duels back in the Academy, but it won’t save your Stratos!” Jaden then says, realizing something, “Oops! Unless you have a face-down that stops that!”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “You got it! I activate my Impenetrable Attack trap!” Davis’ next face-down is revealed to be the Impenetrable Attack trap card and Davis says, with a smile, “This guy has two effects and I use the effect to prevent my monsters from being destroyed in battle this turn!”

 

As Flame Wingman attacks Stratos, Jaden says, “Nice, but you are still going to get burned by Flame Wingman!” As Stratos is protected by a shield, the flames bounce off towards Davis.

 

Davis says, pushing another button on his disk’s touch screen, “Sorry, but my Defense Draw trap card says otherwise!” Davis’ next face-down card is revealed to be the Defense Draw trap card and Davis says, “Not only does this card protect me from damage, but I get a brand new card too!” A shield protects Davis, who draws another card from his deck.

 

Jaden says, with a grin, “Not bad, bro!” Jaden says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “I throw down a couple of face-downs!” Jaden says, putting the last card in his hand into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Mirage of Nightmare to end my turn!”

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “My turn! I draw!”

 

Jaden says, drawing four cards, “And my draw, too! I use Mirage’s effect and draw four cards from my deck since it is your Standby Phase!”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “And that triggers my next trap: Talisman of Reversal!” Jaden’s eyes widen as Davis’ next face-down card is revealed to be the Talisman of Reversal trap card and Davis says, drawing four cards from his deck, “When you add cards to your hand outside of your Draw Phase, I get to draw cards equal to the number in your hand right now!”

 

Jaden says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Pretty sweet trap, but now, I play my face-down: Emergency Provisions!” Jaden’s face-down card is revealed to be the Emergency Provisions Quick-Play spell card and Jaden says, “Now, for every spell and trap on my field that I kick to the curb, I get one grand in life-points and I choose Mirage of Nightmare!” Jaden’s Mirage of Nightmare vanishes from the field and his life-points increase by 1000 more points.

 

A card comes out of Davis’ deck and Davis says, “Well, that’s not all! Thanks to Woodsman’s ability, during my Standby Phase, I get one Polymerization card from my deck!” Davis says, putting said card into the main slot, “Oh, speaking of that, I play my Polymerization! I use it to fuse Woodsman and Stratos!” The two said Hero monsters on the field goes into a fusion vortex while Davis takes a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck in which he says, putting the Fusion Monster card on his disk, “I play Elemental Hero Gaia in attack mode!” Out of the vortex, Elemental Hero Gaia (2200/2600) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Jaden says, with a smirk, “Sweet! I’ve got to say that’s a hero!”

 

Davis says, with a grin, “You won’t be saying them with Gaia’s ability slamming your Wingman! When he is summoned, until the end of this turn, your Wingman’s attack gets cut in half and my Gaia gains that power!” Gaia slams his fists into the ground causing Wingman to entrapped by rock spikes causing Wingman’s stats from 2100/1200 down to 1050/1200 while Gaia goes from 2200/2600 to 3250/2600 in which Davis says, putting one card into the main slot, “Next, I activate my Miracle Fusion! I remove Gaia and Stratos from my graveyard and fuse them again!” Said monster cards come out of Davis’ graveyard, the two said monsters appear on the field, going into a fusion vortex while Davis puts a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck on his disk, and he yells out, “And now, I play Elemental Hero Great Tornado!” Out of the fusion vortex, Elemental Hero Great Tornado (2800/2200) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, “And when Great Tornado soars onto the field, he blows half of your monster’s attack and defense points into the sunset!” A powerful wind slams onto Flame Wingman causing its stats to go from 1050/2000 to 525/1000 in which Davis says, “And then Great Tornado blows your monster away!”

 

Great Tornado unleashes a twister right at Flame Wingman and Jaden says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Sorry, bro, but Flame Wingman is going to weather this storm with Negate Attack!” Jaden’s face-down card is revealed to be the Negate Attack counter-trap card and Jaden says, with a smile, “This trap card stops your attack and you can’t attack any more this turn! Pretty sweet, huh? Through it might not be for you, bro!” A shield protects Flame Wingman from Great Tornado’s attack.

 

Davis says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “I place two cards face-down and end my turn.” Flame Wingman’s stats then go up from 525/1000 to 1575/1000 while Gaia goes down from 3250/2600 back to 2200/2600 due to the end of Gaia’s ability.

 

Current Scores:

Davis: 4000

Jaden: 5000

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Gaia’s ability only lasts one turn, but Great Tornado seem to be more permanent.” Jaden says, drawing a card, “But let’s see what we can do about that! My turn! I draw!” Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “I play Fusion Recovery! This card allows me to retrieve one Polymerization and Fusion Material monster from my graveyard!” Just then Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000) monster card and Polymerization spell card comes out of Jaden’s graveyard slot in which Jaden says, putting said spell card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Polymerization!” Jaden sends one card from his hand to the graveyard, Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) appears on the field, and Jaden says, as the two monsters on the field goes into a fusion vortex, “I fuse Flame Wingman with my Sparkman!” Jaden takes a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck and he says, putting it on his disk, “Come on out, Shining Flare Wingman!” Out of the fusion vortex, Shining Flare Wingman (2500/2100) appears on the field in attack mode and Jaden says, “For every Hero in my grave, Shining Flare Wingman gains three hundred attack points and since there are three currently resting there, he gains nine hundred extra attack points!” Shining Flare Wingman goes from 2500/2100 to 3400/2100 and Jaden shouts out, “Now, show Great Tornado the lightning Shining Flare Wingman!” Shining Flare Wingman fires an orb at Great Tornado that slams into him causing him to explode in which Davis grunts as he loses 600 life-points in which Jaden says, with a smile, “However, Shining Flare Wingman isn’t done! When he destroys a monster, your monster’s attack points are taken out of your life-points!” Shining Flare Wingman shines a bright light right down on Davis.

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Sorry, Jaden, but I play my Damage Polarizer!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Damage Polarizer counter-trap card and Davis says, “Thanks to this card, “I’m safe from your Shining Flare Wingman’s ability and both of us must draw one card from our decks!” A shield protects Davis from the light that Shining Flare Wingman is giving off in which Davis and Jaden then draw one card from their respective decks.

 

Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Cool, but next, I play my Pot of Greed and draw two cards from my deck!” Jaden draws two cards from his deck, looks at them, puts one card into the main slot of his disk, and he says, “Next, I activate my Burial from a Different Dimension! Now, I can return three monsters removed from play to their owner’s graveyard! And I choose to return  your two heroes, Stratos and Woodsman, back to your graveyard! No need to thank me!”

 

Davis asks, confused, “Why are you returning my monsters to me?!”

 

Jaden responds, with a sly tone while putting one more card into the main slot of his disk, “You are going to find out when I play my Fusion Sage spell card! This card allows me to add one Polymerization card to my hand from my deck!” After the said card comes out of Jaden’s deck and Jaden adds the card to his hand, Jaden’s deck is shuffled in which Jaden says, putting one card on his disk, “Then I bring out good old Avian in attack mode!” Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000) appears on the field in attack mode and Jaden says, putting another card into the main slot, “Then I activate my Hero Mask! I put one Hero from my deck to the graveyard and my Avian counts as that monster for that turn!” A card comes out of Jaden’s deck, Jaden sends his Elemental Hero Necroshade (1600/1800) monster card into the graveyard slot, causing Shining Flare Wingman to go from 3400/2100 to 3700/2100 due to its ability, and he says, “Now, Avian also takes on good old Necroshade’s identity for this turn!” Jaden says, putting one more card into the main slot, “Then I play Polymerization!” Jaden discards one card from his hand, Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) appears on the field, and as an image of Necroshade appears around Avian’s form, Jaden says, “I fuse Avian, who counts as good old Necroshade, with Elemental Hero Wildheart!” The two monsters go into a fusion vortex, Jaden takes a Fusion Monster from his Extra Deck, and he says, “Time for you to meet Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman!” Out of the fusion vortex, Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman (1900/1800) appears on the field in attack mode while Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman, again, goes up from 3700/2100 to 4300/2100, due to its ability, and Jaden says, “Now, for his sweet effect, when Necroid Shaman comes to the field, he sends one of your monsters packing!” Necroid Shaman’s staff glows in which Gaia is swallowed by a portal and Jaden says, with a smile, “Then another weaker monster from your grave takes your place! And I choose your Woodsman!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Woodsman (1000/2000) returns to the field in attack mode. Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I end my turn by throwing down a face-down!”

 

Current Score:

Davis: 3400

Jaden: 5000

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “Okay, my move!” Davis says, putting one card into the main slot with a smile, “Now, you are going to see what my heroes can really do and you are going to be surprised!”

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Sweet! I like surprises!”

 

Davis says, “Well, you might not like it when I play my Mask Change Quick-Play spell! With this card, I can release one Hero monster from my field and bring out one Masked Hero from my Extra Deck!”

 

Jaden asks, surprised, “Masked Hero?”

 

Davis yells out, as he takes a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck, “I release Elemental Hero Woodsman to bring Masked Hero Dian!” Elemental Hero Woodsman glows as he transforms into Masked Hero Dian (2800/3000), a silver armored humanoid monster with glittering stars on his armor and dark blue cape attached to his shoulders, appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Jaden says, amazed, “Whoa! Awesome!”

 

Davis says, “You won’t think so with this! Dian, attack Necroid Shaman now!”

 

Dian charges in to attack, but Jaden says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Sorry, bro, but I play my Hero Barrier trap card!” Jaden’s face-down is revealed to be the Hero Barrier trap card and Jaden says, with a smile as a barrier forms around Necroid Shaman, “Since I have an Elemental Hero on my field, I can negate one of your attacks!”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Wrong! I activate my Trap Jammer card!” Davis’ next face-down card is revealed to be the Trap Jammer counter-trap card in which Davis says, “Thanks to my trap, your Hero Barrier is negated!” Jaden gives a surprised look as a barrier that appeared around Necroid Shaman vanishes in which Dian slashes Necroid Shaman, destroying Necroid Shaman, and costing Jaden 800 life-points in which Davis says, “Now, Dian’s ability activates! When he destroys your monster, I can play one Hero that’s level four or below from my deck to the field!” A card comes out of Davis’ deck, he puts it on his disk, and he says, “I choose Elemental Hero Voltic to come on down to the duel!” Elemental Hero Voltic (1000/1500) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Then I play this: My Mask Change Two spell card!” Davis’ last face-down card is revealed to be the Mask Change II Quick-Play spell card and Davis says, “Thanks to this guy, I can release one monster with a level on my field and then summon a Masked Hero that has the same attribute, but higher level as the monster that I released! So, I release Voltic to play Masked Hero Koga in attack mode!” Voltic glows as he ‘transforms’ into Masked Hero Koga (2500/1800), a golden and light yellow humanoid armored warrior, appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Not bad, bro, but since you destroyed Necroid Shaman, my Shining Flare Wingman has gotten even stronger!” Davis can see that Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman has stats of 4600/2100 due to its ability.

 

Davis says, with a grin, “Well, my Koga gains five hundred attack points for every monster that you control!” Koga then goes from 2500/1800 to 3000/1800 and Davis says, with a wide smile, “And now, I use Koga’s second ability! By removing a Hero monster from my graveyard, one of your monsters loses attack points equal to the removed monster’s attack power!” Jaden’s eyes widen in which Davis says, with a smile, “And since you brought Stratos back, I think that I will remove him, again, so, Stratos can help me kick butt once again!” Davis removes said monster card from his graveyard slot of his disk and an image of Stratos appears in which it leaps into Shining Flare Wingman causing him to grunt as Shining Flare Wingman goes down from 4600/2100 down to 2800/2100 in which Davis says, “Koga, time to slice and dice! Attack!” Koga come in and slashes Shining Flare Wingman with wrist blades causing him to grunt before he explodes in which Jaden loses 200 life-points.

 

Jaden says, shocked, “Shining Flare Wingman!”

 

Davis says, putting one card into the main slot, “Next, you might know this trick! I play my Mirage of Nightmare!” Davis says, putting three more cards into the main slot of his disk, “And then I place three cards face-down and call it a turn!”

 

Current Scores:

Davis: 3400

Jaden: 4000

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Not bad. Not bad at all. Your heroes are something else.” Jaden closes his eyes and he says, “However…” When Jaden opens his eyes, they are a dark golden color, surprising Davis, and Jaden says, with a dark ‘echo’ in his voice, “Now, it is time for the real duel! Ready?!”

 

Davis says, stunned, “Whoa!”

 

Jaden says, drawing a card with the ‘dark echo’ in his voice, “My turn! I draw!”

 

Davis says, drawing four cards from his deck, “And, as you know, it is my draw thanks to my Mirage of Nightmare!” Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Then here is a move that you know all too well! I activate Emergency Provisions!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Emergency Provisions Quick-Play spell card and Davis says, “This card allows me to regain one grand in life-points for every spell and trap of mine that I send to the grave and I choose, obviously, Mirage of Nightmare!” Davis’ Mirage of Nightmare continuous spell card vanishes from the field and Davis gains 1000 life-points.

 

Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “You are going to need it since I play my Fifth Hope! I return five Elemental Heroes from my grave to my deck!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000), Elemental Hero Burstinatrix (1200/800), Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400), Elemental Hero Flame Wingman (2100/1200), and Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman (2500/2100) monster/Fusion monster cards come out of the graveyard slot of Jaden’s disk, Jaden returns them to his deck/Extra Deck, Jaden’s deck is shuffled, and Jaden says, drawing three cards, “And since this is the only card in my hand and I had no cards on the field when I played this baby, I get three cards instead of two!” Jaden says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I play my Graceful Charity! I draw three cards and then discard two cards!” Jaden draws three cards from his deck, discards two cards from his hand, and Jaden says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Convert Contact! Since I control no monsters, I can send one Neo-Spacian from my deck and one from my hand to the graveyard! After that, I draw two new cards!” A card comes out of Jaden’s deck and Jaden discards Neo-Spacian Dark Panther (1000/500) and Neo-Spacian Glow Moss (300/900) monster cards, and Jaden draws two more cards. Jaden then says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “And now, I activate my Miracle Contact! By sending Neos and Neo-Spacians from my hand and grave back to my deck to unite them into a Neos Fusion Monster!” Jaden’s graveyard glows as Neo-Spacian Dark Panther, Neo-Spacian Glow Moss, and Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) appear on the field and Jaden shouts out, “Neos! Dark Panther! And Glow Moss! It is time for Triple Contact Fusion!” All three monsters leap high into the sky and when they ‘meet’ each other, they are bathed in light as Jaden gets a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck in which Jaden says, putting it on his duel disk, “Time to bring on the chaos! Elemental Hero Chaos Neos!” Out of the light, Elemental Hero Chaos Neos (3000/2500) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Davis says, nervously, “Oh, boy.”

 

Jaden says, “You better be nervous because Chaos Neos has three abilities, but I have to toss three coins and Chaos Neos’ ability depends on the number of heads that I get.” On the screen, three coins are flipped on the screen and they land head first in which Jaden says, with a grin, “Sweet! Three heads! But that’s bad news for you since all of your monsters are automatically destroyed!” Bats then come out of the ground in which Masked Heroes Dian and Koga roar out as they are destroyed!

 

Davis yells out, stunned, “Dian! Koga!”

 

Jaden says, “If you think that’s bad, wait until Chaos Neos’ direct attack! Go, Chaos Swarm!” Chaos Neos unleashes a massive swarm of bats and Davis yells out as they surround as well as lash out at him as he loses 3000 life-points.


Davis says, “Those things bite!”

 

Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Sorry, bro, but no pain then no gain!”

 

Davis glares at Jaden, annoyed, and he says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Well, you are going to be right about the gain part! I activate my trap: Damage Condenser!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Damage Condenser trap card in which Davis says, discarding one card from his hand, “By discarding one card from my hand when I get hit by battle damage, I can summon one monster from my deck that’s equal or less attack points than the life-points that I lost!” A card comes out of Davis’ deck and Davis says, putting the card on his disk, “And guess what? One Neos deserves another! Elemental Hero Neos!” Just then Davis’ Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, drawing two cards, “By the way, the card that I discarded was Card of Compensation! When it is sent from the hand to the grave, I get two more cards from my deck!”

 

Jaden puts one more card into the main slot of his disk causing him to say, “Well, I give Chaos Neos with my Instant Neo-Space equip spell card! Now, Chaos Neos won’t return to my Extra Deck at the end of my turn and if he leaves the field, Neos returns from my deck!” Jaden says, putting the last card in his hand into the main slot of his disk, “And then I throw down a face-down to end my turn!”

 

Current Scores:

Davis: 1400

Jaden: 4000

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “My move! I draw!” Davis shouts out, “Neos, attack Chaos Neos now!”

 

Neos leaps towards Chaos Neos and Jaden says, confused, “Hold up, why are you attacking my Neos? He’s got more attack points than yours!”

 

Davis says, with a sly smirk while discarding a card from his hand, “Not with my Elemental Hero Honest Neos! By discarding him, one Hero on my field gains his attack points until this turn!” Neos gains a pair of white feathered wings as it goes from 2500/2000 to 5000/2000 in which Davis shouts out, “Shining Cosmic Crush!” Neos bashes his fist into Chaos Neos’ chest causing him to explode in a massive explosion.

 

Jaden shouts out, “Chaos Neos!” Jaden then says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “I activate my trap: Hero Spirit!” Jaden’s face-down card is revealed to be the Hero Spirit trap card and Jaden says, “Since a Hero was destroyed in battle, I don’t take damage from that battle!” A card comes out of Jaden’s deck and he says, putting the card on his disk, “Also, Chaos Neos had Instant Neo-Space equipped to him, so, Elemental Hero Neos comes out to play!” Just then Jaden’s Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Davis says, “So, it is Neos against Neos.”

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “Now, we’ll see if you truly harnessed the power of Neos, but it isn’t looking good for you!”

 

Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “That’s left to be seen! I’ve still got life-points and that means that this duel is still on! I end my turn with a face-down!” Davis’ Elemental Hero Neos then returns from 5000/2000 back to its original 2500/2000 since the effect of Honest Neos has come to an end.

 

Jaden says, drawing a card, “At least you have the spirit, but let’s see if your spirit is strong enough, bro! I draw!” Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot, “I equip Neos with Assault Armor! It boosts his attack points by three hundred points!” Jaden’s Elemental Hero Neos goes from 2500/2000 to 2800/2000 and Jaden shouts out, “Sorry that I have to battle your ‘bro’, Neos, but he has got to go! Attack!” Jaden’s Neos leaps up to attack Davis’ Neos with his powerful punch.

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk, “I don’t think so! I activate my trap: Astral Barrier!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Astral Barrier continuous trap card and Davis says, “With this card, your Neos’ attack is redirected towards me!”

 

As Davis’ Neos vanishes, Jaden asks, confused, “What’s the point of that?”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen once again, “My other trap card should answer that one! It’s Spirit Barrier!” Davis’ other face-down card is revealed to be the Spirit Barrier continuous trap card and Davis says, “As long as I have got a monster on my field, I don’t take battle damage!” A protective shield protects Davis from Jaden’s Neos and Jaden’s ace monster returns to his side.

 

Jaden says, with a smirk, “Impressive! I end my turn!”

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “I draw!” Davis thinks in his mind, “Not good. I don’t have anything in my hand to turn this around. I guess I have to play safe for the moment.” Davis says, putting one card into the main slot, “I end my turn with one card face-down.”

 

Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Bad luck, huh? Sorry to hear that, but there is no mercy in this duel and I don’t intend to hold back!” Jaden says, drawing a card, “My turn! I draw!” Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot, “I activate my Spell Books from the Pot! Both of us must draw three cards from our decks!” Jaden and Davis draw three cards from their decks, Jaden puts one card into the main slot of his disk, and he says, discarding one card from his hand, “Then I play my Twin Twisters! By discarding one card, two spell or trap cards on the field are sent packing!”

 

Davis says, worriedly, “Oh, crud!” Two twisters appear on the field and destroy Davis’ Astral Barrier and Spirit Barrier continuous trap cards.

 

Jaden says, drawing two cards from his deck, “Yep! Your combo is done! By the way, the card that I discarded was the one that you used earlier: Card of Compensation! As you know, when this card is sent to the grave from my hand, I draw two more cards from my deck!” Jaden says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “And those cards are going to help me win this duel! Sorry, but I start off with Cocoon Party! For every Neo-Spacian in my grave, I can summon one Chrysalis monster from my deck!” Two cards come out of Jaden’s deck and when he puts them on his disk, Chrysalis Mole (700/100) and Chrysalis Larva (300/300) appear on the field in defense mode in which Jaden says, putting one more card into the main slot of his disk, “And then I play Contact! It is time for these little guys to grow up into Neo-Spacians!” Two more cards come out of Jaden’s deck, he puts them on his disk, and Chrysalis Mole transforms into Neo-Spacian Grand Mole (900/300) with Chrysalis Larva becoming Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab (500/500-900/500) with both Neo-Spacians in attack mode. Jaden shouts out, “And now, it is time for another Triple Contact Fusion! Neos, it is time to unite with Grand Mole and Flare Scarab!” The three said monsters leap into the sky and ‘combine’ in a bright light while Jaden puts a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck on his duel disk causing him to say, “Time to bring on the heat with Elemental Hero Magma Neos!” Out of the light, Elemental Hero Magma Neos (3000/2500) appears on the field in attack mode. Jaden says, “Magma Neos gains four hundred attack points for every card on the field and since there are four, Magma Neos gains sixteen hundred attack points off the bat!” Magma Neos then goes from 3000/2500 to 4600/2500 and Jaden says, putting one card into the Field Spell Slot of his disk, “And then I add my Neo Space Field Spell!” The field transforms into an aurora colored ‘space’ in which Jaden says, “All Neos monsters gain five hundred attack points and since another card came to the field, Magma Neos gains four hundred additional attack points!” Magma Neos goes from 4600/2500 to 5500/2500 while Davis’ Neos goes from 2500/2000 to 3000/2000 in which Jaden says, with a smile, “While this gives your Neos a boost, it won’t save him and you from this! Oh, well! Nice try! You put up a good duel, but all good things must come to an end! Magma Neos, end this duel with Meteor Meltdown!” Magma Neos then unleashes a massive flaming meteor that heads straight Davis’ Neos.

 

Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “I activate my Trap Booster spell card! By discarding one card from my hand, I can play one trap card from my hand!” Davis discards one card from his hand, puts one card into the main slot of his disk, and he says, “And I choose my Waboku trap card! This card not only saves my Neos, but I don’t think damage from this battle as well!” A trio of maidens appears in front of Davis’ Neos and protects him from Magma Neos’ attack.

 

Jaden says, “Nice counter, but you can’t stop my attacks forever!”

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “We’ll see about that! I draw!”

 

Jaden says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “And I activate my trap: Battle Mania!” Jaden’s face-down card is revealed to be Battle Mania trap card and Jaden says, “During your Standby Phase, I can use this trap and it forces your monsters in attack mode and they can’t change their battle modes for this turn! They are also forced to attack this turn too!” Davis flinches as Magma Neos does down from 5500/2500 to 5100/2500 due to the activation of a trap card on Jaden’s field.

 

Davis thinks in his mind, “That’s means that I have to attack this turn and this turn could be my last! I have to make this count!” Davis looks at the cards in his hand and Davis says, putting one card into the main slot, “I activate my Foolish Burial spell card! Now, I can send one monster card from my deck to my grave!” A card comes out of Davis’ deck and he sends it into the graveyard slot of his disk in which Davis says, putting one more card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Double Spell! By discarding one spell card from my hand, I can use one spell in your graveyard!” Davis discards another card from his hand, a card shoots out of the graveyard slot of Jaden’s disk, and Davis says, putting the card into the main slot of his disk, “And I choose Miracle Fusion! I untie Neos on my field with Grand Mole and Dark Panther in my graveyard!” Just then Davis’ Neo-Spacian Grand Mole (900/300) and Neo-Spacian Dark Panther (1000/500) appears on the field with Davis’ Neos and they leap into the sky.

 

Jaden asks, surprised, “Wait! Neos with Grand Mole and Dark Panther?!”

 

Davis says, with a smile as his Extra Deck glows, “Yep! It is a new combo that neither you or I ever used before! Okay, guys, Triple Contact Fusion!” The three said monsters then combine in a bright light while the light from Davis’ Extra Deck creates a brand new Fusion Monster card on Davis’ disk in which Davis shouts out, “Meet the one and only Elemental Hero Nebula Neos!” Out of the light, Elemental Hero Nebula Neos (3000/2500-3500/2500), a monster that looks like Dark Neos with the ‘chest piece’ of Ground Neos with metal wings and jet boosts attached to his back with a gantlet that has two large drill bits attached to the gantlet with said gantlet attached to his right wrist, in attack mode.

 

Jaden says, amazed, “That’s new.”

 

Davis says, with a sly smile, “When Nebula Neos comes to the field, I can draw cards equal to the number that you control right now and since you have two cards, I get two cards!” Davis draws two cards from his deck and Davis says, with a grin, “But that’s not the best part! I can also negate the effects of one monster on your field until the end of this turn!” Jaden’s eyes widen and Davis says ,with a smile, “That’s right, bro! I negate the powers of Magma Neos!” Magma Neos roars out as its power is negated in which it goes rom 5100/2500 down to 3500/2500 due to Magma Neos’ ability being negated.

 

Jaden says, “However, both of our monsters are now equal even with Neo Space.”

 

Davis says, with a grin, “Yeah, but we still have to battle. Nebula Neos, attack Magma Neos with Nova Drill!” Nebula Neos charges in with his drills in which Magma Neos counters with a flaming meteor in which when Nebula Neos hits the meteor it causes a massive explosion that destroys both Neos monsters.

 

Jaden says, “Magma Neos!” When the explosion dies down, both Neos monsters are gone and Jaden says, “What’s the point, bro? Now, both of us have no monsters.”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk, “Not quite, bro. I still have one LAST card to play! Go, Reverse of Neos!” Jaden gasps as Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Reverse of Neos Quick-Play spell card and Davis says, as a card comes out of his deck, “Since a Neos Fusion Monster was destroyed, I can summon Elemental Hero Neos back to the field, but he is a goner at the end of the turn!” Davis puts the card on his disk and Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000-3000/2000) appears on the field in attack mode in which Davis says, with a sly smile, “And with Neo Space, Reverse of Neos also gives my Neos a boost…a one thousand point boost!” Elemental Hero Neos then goes from 3000/2000 to 4000/2000.

 

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

 

Davis yells out, “Neos, end this! Direct attack!” Elemental Hero Neos leaps forward and karate chops Jaden causing him to fall to the ground as he loses 4000 life-points as well as the duel.

 

Final Scores:

Davis: 1400

Jaden: 0

 

With the end of the duel, the field returns to normal as the final Real Solid Vision ‘images’ fades away and Jaden says, his eyes and voice returning to ‘normal’, “Nice work, bro.”

 

As Jaden gets to his feet, Neos and Neo-Spacians appear and Aquos says, with a nod, “Indeed. You have truly mastered the power of Neos.”

 

Davis says, with a smile, “Yeah…thanks.”

 

Neos says, “However, you have a long way to go, young prince. But you are doing well.”

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “Yeah, bro. It was a sweet duel.”

 

Davis says, rubbing his head, “Um, thanks.” Just then Davis hears a roar and everyone looks to see a strange group of dragons with Duel Monsters with ‘dragon-like’ qualities coming towards them as well as landing in front of Davis causing him to say, amazed, “Whoa!”

 

Neos says, “It seems like these monsters feel that you are worthy of their power.”

 

Davis asks, a bit nervously, “Really?”

 

Aquos says, with a nod, “Indeed. The Moon Princesses won’t be the only ones with the power of Pendulum Summon anymore.”

 

Davis asks, surprised, “Huh?” Just then Davis yelps as he is bathed in light from an egg-shaped golden orb as he finds himself surrounded by these dragon and ‘dragon-like’ Duel Monsters before he gasp to wake up in his bedroom in which shocks Veemon awake.

 

Veemon asks, surprised, “What? Where?” Veemon looks at Davis and he asks Davis, “What’s wrong?”

 

Davis tells Veemon, “I just had a real weird dream, buddy.” Just then Veemon and Davis notice a glow coming from Davis’ desk in which Davis goes over to open his desk’s drawers where Davis finds that it is his decks that are glowing causing Davis to say, amazed and stunned, “I guess that it wasn’t a dream.” When Davis looks through the cards in his deck, his eyes widen at what he sees.

 

May 22, 2026, Tokyo, Kirigaya household

 

Within the Kirigaya household, Suguha Kirigaya is inside of her room with her two Digimon partners waiting for her.

 

Agumon (Suguha) says, “Welcome back, boss!”

 

Suguha says, “Hey, Agumon.”

 

Lunamon says, “How did training go? I hope that it went well.”

 

Suguha says, with a smile, “It went well.”

 

Lunamon says, “I’m glad that it went okay.”

 

Suguna says, with a sigh, “Yeah…” Just then she hears her smartphone ring and she takes it out where she sees something on the screen causing her to push the button causing her to gasp at what she sees.

 

Agumon (Suguha) asks, “Boss?”

 

Lunamon asks, concerned, “What’s wrong?”

 

Suguha says, a bit nervously yet serious tone in her voice, “Yuuko. She’s made her move!” Her two Digimon partners give gasps of shock and Suguha tells them, putting her phone away, “I’ll explain on the way! Let’s go!”

 

Agumon (Suguha) says, “But boss, you know that this has to be a trap!”

 

Suguha says, with a nod, “I know, Agumon. But she is giving me no choice other than setting off the trap.” Suguha tells her two Digimon partners, “Let’s go.” Agumon (Suguha) and Lunamon nod their heads in which Suguha and her two Digimon partner head off, but as they head off, they don’t notice Kazuto and Suguha’s guardian feline, Trivia, looking on in which Kazuto takes out a communication device similar to the one used by the Sailor Scouts.

 

May 22, 2026, Iwo Jima

 

On the top of Mount Suribachi on the island of Iwo Jima, site of the famous second flag raising of a huge United States flag during the battle on this island during WWII, Yuuko is standing there while there is a young lady, of late teenage years, with brown hair in two buns and jade green eyes that’s trapped in a force-field bubble behind her.

 

The young lady asks, fearfully, “Why are you doing this?”

 

Yuuko responds, with a plain tone, “I have already explained it to you, so, your question is pointless.”

 

The young lady shouts out, “But I already told you…!!”

 

Yuuko responds, glaring at the young lady with a ‘death glare’, “You and your father helped THAT MAN create the instrument of the destruction of my family. Willing or not, you are guilt of assisting a mass murder: Akihiko Kayaba. And only because of someone’s so-called ‘morality’ that your punishment wasn’t fulfilled.”

 

Just then a female voice booms out, “There is a difference between justice and revenge as well as morality and self-righteousness, Yuuko!” Yuuko and the young lady look to see Suguha, with her Real Solid Vision duel disk that has a dueling deck inside attached to her left wrist and a determined look in her eyes, walking up with her two Digimon partners in tow.

 

The young lady sees Suguha, gasps, and she yells out, in fear and panic, “Y-Y-You! What are you doing here?!”

 

Suguha gives a solemn sigh and Yuuko responds, “She is to your so-called savior this time.” The young lady looks at Yuuko and Yuuko says, “Her conscious refuses to allow any harm to come to you for obvious reasons. You are part of her guilt.”

 

Suguha tells Yuuko, “Let Alita-san go, Yuuko.”

 

Yuuko tells Suguha, “You know that I won’t do that.”

 

Suguha yells out, strongly, “She has been already through enough crap! She doesn’t need any more crud especially from us!”

 

Yuuko says, with a narrowing glare, “She hasn’t been through enough. It was only your so-called ‘sense of morality’ that she didn’t get her well-deserved punishment.”

 

Suguha responds, “And who are you and I are to judge anyone, Yuuko?” Suguha tells Yuuko, seriously and sternly, “Now, Alita-san go and end this turn or…!!!”

 

Yuuko tells Suguha, interrupting with a deadly glare in her eyes, “You have no control over this situation!” Yuuko snaps her fingers and the young lady trapped in the force-field screams out as she gets shocked.

 

Suguha says, stunned, “No, stop!”

 

Yuuko tells Suguha, with a plain yet stern tone, “Then remember who is in control here, Suguha.” Yuuko snaps her fingers and the shocking of the young lady, Alita, is stopped in which Yuuko says, plainly, “I believe that I am understood.”

 

Suguha says, with a plain tone, “Crystal.”

 

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “Good.” Just then two people come out of the ‘shadows’ to stand by Suguha and they are revealed to be someone that looks like Tristan Taylor and the former leader of the Arcadia Movement, Sayer, who, like ‘Tristan’, has a Chaos Duel Disk that has a dueling deck inside, attached to her left wrist.

 

Suguha asks, surprised, “What the?!”

 

Sayer says, with a sneer, “Didn’t expect me to see me again, you little brat? I have a score to settle with you!”

 

Suguha says, “Nice company that you are keeping Yuuko.”

 

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “We share a common interest: Payback against you.”

 

Sayer says, “And once I’m done with you, I’m going to make sure that Yusei Fudo and Akiza get what they deserve for what they did to me.”

 

Suguha says, “Not happening, jerk!”

 

‘Tristan’ says, with a deep male voice, “I think not, young lady. You will have to fight both of us.”

 

Suguha says, with a snort, “Let me guess: You must be another of those ‘Big Five’ losers in Tristan-san’s body. You are using him like a time share!”

 

‘Tristan’ says, “You are correct, young lady. I am Gansley, the leader of the Big Five. I’m here to make amends for my associates’ mistakes.”

 

Suguha says, “You just made one by siding with her.”

 

Yuuko says, “Well, they don’t have a choice since they exist in cyberspace since they lost their bodies long ago.”

 

Suguha says, “At least they do exist.”

 

Yuuko says, “You, soon, won’t be, Suguha.”

 

Suguha says, strongly, “We’ll see!”

 

Sayer says, “We will indeed, brat.”

 

Gansley says, “That’s right, little girl.”

 

Agumon (Suguha) says, “Hey, that’s not fair! It’s two against one!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice shouts out, “Then how about two-on-two?” Everyone then looks to see the Sailor Scouts flying in with Imperialdramon, in his ‘dragon mode’, flying in.

 

Suguha thinks in her mind, surprised, “What the?!” Soon after, Imperialdramon then ‘beams down’, the Digidestined, the remaining Digimon partners, along with Kazuto, Keiko, Hiyori, Rika, and Kotone, causing Suguha to think, shocked, “What the heck are they doing here?!”

 

Davis asks, with a smirk, “Sorry, is this a private party or can anyone join?”

 

Keiko asks, seeing Tristan, “Isn’t that Tristan-san?”

 

Rika says, “Nope. Must another of those guys possessing his body.”

 

Gansley says, “Indeed, young lady. I am Gansley, leader of the Big Five.”

 

Davis says, with a plain tone, “Just another body snatcher to me.”

 

Gansley says, with a snort, “Youth these days. A whipper snapper like you is going to be taught manners.”

 

Suguha looks at Yuuko and she asks, with a glare, “Did you plan this?”

 

Yuuko says, plainly, “I didn’t inform them of this, but I knew that they would find a way to follow you at this point.”

 

Suguha asks, surprised, “Huh?”

 

Yuuko says, “After learning part of the truth of what happened to you, you really think that they wouldn’t track you? That’s naïve thinking, Suguha. I thought you smarter than that.”

 

Sailor Moon says, seriously, “Enough! I don’t know what’s going on here, but let that girl go!”

 

Yuuko tells Sailor Moon, “No. She has the same blood on her hands as your uncle does.”

 

Alita asks, “Uncle?”

 

Yuuko points to Sailor Moon and she says, “I believe introductions are in order through you already know who she is. She is Sailor Moon, your champion of love and justice, but she is also the niece of the madman of Sword Art Online itself: Akihiko Kayaba.”

 

Alita asks, stunned, “What?!”

 

Suguha asks Yuuko, annoyed, “What is your game, Yuuko?”

 

Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “My ‘game’ is a game, Suguha. To keep it short, you and another comrade of yours will be dueling these two. You know what happens when you lose, but in addition, if you lose, this wretch dies. One snap of fingers and she dies instantly. Now, duel.” Yuuko swings her arm and device start to appear all around them in which Yuuko says, “This will be a Deck Master duel and each duelist shall choose one monster to act as their Deck Master. Now, I will not say anymore since you know the rules of tag dueling. Now, duel.”

 

Davis takes out his Real Solid Vision duel disk, attaches it to his left wrist, and he says, putting a dueling deck inside, “Fine by me.”

 

Suguha shouts out, “Hey!”

 

Davis tells Suguha, “We don’t exactly have time to argue here, Suguha. There is someone’s life in danger.” Suguha nods her head, reluctantly, in which Suguha, Davis, Sayer, and Gansley activate their duel disks.

 

Gansley says, “However, as Lady Yuuko-sama said, it is a Deck Master duel. Now, all of us must chose a monster from our decks or Extra Decks, as you, young whipper snappers, call the former Fusion Monster deck these days, to act as our Deck Master. However, I choose my Deepsea Warrior, a wise investment!” Just then Deepsea Warrior (1600/1800) appears by Gansley’s side.

 

Sayer says, with a wicked smile, “I choose my Magical Android!” Magical Android (2400/1700) appears by Sayer’s side.

 

Davis says, displaying a card, “I choose Lord of Dragons!” Just then Lord of D. (1200/1100) appear by Davis’ side.

 

Gansley says, with a smirk, “Doesn’t that look familiar. Don’t think that he will help you.”

 

Davis says, with a sneer, “We’ll see.”

 

Suguha says, displaying her own card, “And I choose Rose Witch!” Just then Rose Witch (1600/1000) appears by Suguha’s side in which all four duelists’ decks are shuffled in their respective duel disks, as the ‘blades’ containing their Monster and Pendulum Card Zones appear, their touch screens display 8000 life-point for each team of two duelists, and all four duelists draw five cards from their respective decks.

 

“Let’s duel!” Suguha, Davis, Sayer, and Gansley say in unison as their tag-team duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 8000

Sayer and Gansley: 8000

 

Suguha says, drawing a card, “I’ll take the first turn! I draw!” Suguha says, displaying Odd-Eyes Persona Dragon (1200/2400) and Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon (1200/600) Pendulum Monster cards, “I take scale one, Odd-Eyes Persona Dragon, and scale eight, Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon, and set the Pendulum Scale!” Suguha puts the said two cards into the Pendulum Card Zones causing the Monster Card Zones to glow with the word ‘Pendulum’ in rainbow colors, two columns of light with Odd-Eyes Persona Dragon and Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon appears in the two columns, one monster per column, and the number 1 appearing below Odd-Eyes Persona Dragon and number 8 appearing below Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon. Suguha says, “Now, I can summon monsters that are levels two through seven this turn!” As an appear of a pendulum appears swinging between the two columns of light, Suguha says, “Swing, Pendulum! Create the arc of light to victory! Pendulum Summon!” Suguha puts three cards on her duel disk and she yells out, “Let’s rock and roar! Red-Eyes Wyvern! And Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!” A circle of light appears on the field, three ‘lights’ come from the circle, and those ‘lights’ are revealed to be two Red-Eyes Wyverns (1800/1600 X 2) and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000) in attack mode. Suguha says, “And now, I Overlay my Wyverns and build the Overlay Network!” Both Wyverns turn into lights that goes into a vortex while Suguha puts both monster cards on the same Monster Card Zone before putting an XYZ Monster card from her Extra Deck on top of the cards in which she yells out, “Formed from pitch-black darkness to fight those foolish enough to oppose its treacherous fangs! Descend now! I XYZ Summon Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon! Out of the vortex, Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon (2500/2000), with two Dark Overlay Units orbiting it, appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Gansley says, with an amazed tone, “Pendulum and XYZ Summoning, huh? Very interesting. It seems like Kaiba had a good idea investing in this game. It is ever evolving.”

 

Suguha says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “I play my Special Inheritance spell card! For every monster that’s special summoned this turn, I get a card, but if I don’t use them all, I lose five hundred life-points per card!” Suguha says, putting four cards into them main slot of her disk, “I end my turn four cards face-down.”

 

Sayer says, drawing a card, “Is that all? Then it is my move!” Sayer then gains an evil smile and he says, putting one card into the Field Spell slot of his disk, “And I start off with my Seal of Orichalcos Field Spell!” There are gasps of shock as Sayer and Gansley roar out as they are surrounded by sinister columns of green light in which Alita shakes in fear of what she sees.

 

Sailor Venus says, “Here we go again!”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a snarl, “No kidding!” Soon enough, all four duelists are entrapped in the Seal of Orichalcos while the insignia of the Orichalcos appears on the foreheads of Sayer and Gansley/Tristan while they gain a red tint in their eyes.

 

Alita thinks in her mind, fearfully, “Not again…not again…” As Alita shakes in fear, Yuuko, Kazuto, Ken, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Mars, and Sailor Pluto take note of this.

 

Sayer tells Suguha, “Payback time, wench!” Sayer says, putting one card on his disk, “I play my Destructotron in attack mode!”  Destructotron (1600/400) appears on the field in attack mode and Sayer says, with an evil smile, “And the Orichalcos gives him a power boost!” Destructotron gains the insignia of the Orichalcos on its forehead and red tint in its eyes causing it stats to go from 1600/400 to 2100/400. Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate Emergency Teleport! This card allows me to play one level three or less Psychic monster from my hand or deck!” A card comes out of Sayer’s deck, he puts it on his disk, and he says, “And I choose Mental Seeker!” Just then Mental Seeker (800/600-1300/600) appears on the field in attack mode while getting infused with the power of the Orichalcos in the process and Sayer says, “So, I tune Mental Seeker with Destructotron!” Mental Seeker turns into three stars that turn into three rings that surround Destructotron, turning it transparent, and when Sayer gets a Synchro Monster card from his Extra Deck, a column of light appears on the field causing him to say, “Mistress of the great mind, be born and envision the new world! Synchro Summon!” Sayer says, putting the Synchro Monster card on his disk, “I Synchro Summon Psychic Lifetrancer!” Out of the light, Psychic Lifetrancer (2400/2000-2900/2000) appears on the field in attack mode while getting infused by the power of the Orichalcos and Sayer says, “And now, I activate her ability! By removing one Psychic monster from my graveyard from play, we gain twelve hundred more life-points!” Sayer removes his Mental Seeker (800/600) monster card from his disk’s graveyard slot and he and Gansley gain 1200 more life-points.

 

Gansley says, with an evil grin, “A wise investment.”

 

Sayer says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “Indeed. And now, I place two cards face-down and end my turn, but now, my Deck Master’s ability now activates! During the end my turns, we gain six hundred life-points for every Psychic monster on our field!” Sayer and Gansley glow as their life-points increase, again, by 600 more points this turn.

 

Davis says, annoyed, “This is going to be a pain in the ass.”

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 8000

Sayer and Gansley: 9800

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “Let’s see what I can do to change that! I draw!” Davis says, discarding one card from his hand, “By sending one monster card from my hand to the graveyard, I can play Defrag Dragon!” Just then Defrag Dragon (1000/600) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Level Modulation spell card! My opponent gets to draw two cards from their deck and in return, I can play one level monster from my graveyard!”

 

Gansley says, as he and Sayer draw two cards from their respective decks, “Very cute. The monster that you sent must be a high-level monster that you are going to summon, but this is a poor investment since you are giving us more assets in the process!”

 

Suguha says, pushing a button on her disk’s touch screen, “Not as much as you think since that activate my Reverse of Talisman trap card!” Suguha’s face-down card is revealed to be the Reverse of Talisman trap card and Suguha says, “When my opponent draws cards outside of their Draw Phase, this card allows me to draw cards equal to the number that they have in their hand currently.” Sayer and Gansley give looks of shock and Suguha says, “But since this is a tag duel, I choose Gansley to use my card’s effect on and since you have seven cards in your hand, I get seven new cards as well!”

 

Suguha draws seven cards and Sayer says, with a sneer, “Somehow, the brat knew that the witch had that card face-down!”

 

Davis says, with a grin, “Oh, I didn’t know, but I had a feeling.” Sayer and Gansley sneer at Davis and Davis says, “And now, I play my Armed Dragon Level Seven in attack mode!” Just then Armed Dragon LV7 (2800/1000) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Ancient Rules! I can now summon one level five or higher non-effect monster from my hand!” Davis says, putting one card on his disk, “And here is Hyozanryu!” Just then Hyozanryu (2100/2800) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, with a grin, “I Overlay Armed Dragon Level Seven and Hyozanryu and build the Overlay Network!” Both monsters turn into lights that goes into a vortex in the ground while the two monsters cards are put on the same Monster Card Zone of Davis’ duel disk while Davis puts an XYZ Monster card from his Extra Deck on his duel disk causing him to say, “I XYZ Summon Dark Armed, the Savage Onslaught Dragon!” Out of the vortex, Dark Armed, the Savage Onslaught Dragon (2800/1000), a version of Dark Armed Dragon with massive metallic wings and two Dark Overlay Units orbiting it, appears on the field in attack mode.

 

The rest of our heroes and heroines are amazed and Tai says, awe-struck, “That’s new.”

 

Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Graceful Charity! I draw three cards and then discard two from my hand!” Davis draws three cards, discards two cards from his hand, draws two new cards, and he says, “And one of those cards was Card of Compensation! Since it was sent from my hand to the grave, I get two new cards from my deck! Next, I activate my Savage Onslaught Dragon’s ability! By removing one Overlay Unit, I can destroy one card on your field and then I remove one card from my grave!” Dark Armed, the Savage Onslaught Dragon unleashes a powerful roar that destroys Psychic Lifetrancer while Davis removes one card from his disk’s graveyard slot. Sayer glares at Davis and he says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “Ah, are you sure since I busted your girlfriend? Too bad! I end my turn with two face-downs!”

 

TK says, amazed, “Wow! Davis is really on his game!”

 

Ken says, “Well, he has to be TK.” TK can’t help to nod his head in agreement while Kari looks on with a concerned look on her face.

 

Gansley draws a card and he says, “It looks like that I have to make a return on our investments! I draw!” Gansley puts one card on his disk and he says, “I start with my Summoner Monk!” Summoner Monk (800/1600-1300/1600) appears on the field in attack mode that gets infused with the power of the Orichalcos and Gansley says, with a grin, “Now, my Monk switches to defense mode the instant that he comes to the field!” Summoner Monk switches from attack mode to defense mode and Gansley says, discarding one card from his hand, “Next, I use his ability! By discarding one spell card from my hand, I can play one monster from my deck that’s level four or below, but that monster can’t attack on the same turn that it is summoned! However, it is a wise investment as you will soon learn!” A card comes out of Gansley’s deck, he puts it on his duel disk, and he says, “And I choose my Avatar of the Pot!” Just then Avatar of the Pot (1200/1300-1700/1300) appears on the field in defense mode and Gansley says, discarding his Pot of Greed spell card, “Next, I use his ability! By discarding my Pot of Greed, I get three new cards from my deck!” Gansley draws three cards from his deck, puts one card into the main slot, and he says, “Then I play my Ancient Rules! With this card, I can play one level five or above non-effect monster from my hand! And I choose my Millennium Shield, a wise investment!” Gansley puts a card on his disk and Millennium Shield (0/3000-500/3000) appears on the field in defense mode. Gansley then says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Next, I equip my Millennium Shield with my Ring of Magnetism! This drops my shield’s power by five hundred points, but now, you can only attack my shield!” An energy ring surrounds Millennium Shield causing it stats to go from 500/3000 to 0/2500 and Gansley says, putting one card into the main slot, “To improve my investment, I activate my Ties to the Brethren! For the mere price of two thousand life-points, I pick one monster that’s level four or below on my field and I summon two monsters that’s the same type, attribute, and level as the monster that I choose! So, I choose my Avatar of the Pot!” Gansley’s and Sayer’s life-points drop by 2000, two cards come out of Gansley’s deck, and Gansley says, putting said cards on his disk, “And my Giant Soldier of Stone shall do nicely!” Just then two Giant Soldier of Stone (1300/2000-1800/2000 X 2) appears on the field in defense mode and get infused with the power of Orichalcos like the rest of Gansley’s monsters.

 

Sailor Jupiter says, amazed, “Whoa! He just summoned five monsters in one turn!”

 

Gansley says, with a sinister smile, “Indeed. A very wise investment as you will see! I end my turn!”

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 8000

Sayer and Gansley: 7800

 

Suguha says, drawing a card, “My move!” Suguha thinks in her mind, “Thanks to that overgrown shield, I have to focus on him first! That won’t be much of a problem…but then again, there may be more to his plan than meets the eye.” As the crystal pendulum reappears on the field and Suguha shouts out, “With my set Pendulum Scale, I can summon monsters that levels two to seven this turn! Swing, Pendulum! Draw the arc of light to victory! Pendulum Summon!” Suguha puts three cards on her duel disk and she shouts out, “It is time grow and sprout! Predaplant Flytrap, Predaplant Moray Nepenthes, and Predaplant Banksiogre!” A circle of light appears on the field, three lights come from the circle, and the ‘lights’ are revealed to be Predaplant Flytrap (400/800), Predaplant Moray Nepenthes (1600/1000), and Predaplant Banksiogre (2000/100) appears on the field in attack mode. Suguha says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “Then I activate my Fusion Substitute spell card! With it, I can summon a Fusion Monster by fusing monsters on my field! I fuse Flytrap with Moray Nepenthes!” The said monsters go into a fusion vortex while Suguha gets a Fusion Monster card from her Extra Deck and she says, putting that card on her disk, “Dragon of the poisoned flowers, bloom onto the field! I Fusion Summon Starve Venom Fusion Dragon!” Out of the fusion vortex, Starve Venom Fusion Dragon (2800/2000) appears on the field in attack mode and Suguha says, “Due to its ability, when brought to the field, Starve Venom gains the attack power of one Special Summoned monster on the field and I mean, CURRENT, not original, attack points!” Starve Venom Fusion Dragon then goes from 2800/2000 to 4600/2000!

 

Davis says, with a sly smile, “Way to go!” However, Gansley doesn’t even show a bit of worry.

 

Plenty of the others notice this and Tai thinks in his mind, “I don’t like that look. He isn’t batting an eye to Suguha’s monster.”

 

Suguha yells out, “Starve Venom, make a meal of his tin can shield!” Starve Venom unleashes a barrage of energy spears right at Millennium Shield in which Gansley gives an evil smile.

 

Kazuto thinks in his mind, nervously, “Uh oh…”

 

Gansley yells out, “I activate my Deck Master’s ability now! Go, Reflector Hole!”

 

There are gasps of shock from our heroes and heroines and Sailor Saturn asks, “Reflector Hole?” Both Giant Soldier of Stone vanishes and create what looks like a black hole in front of Millennium Shield.

 

Davis asks, stunned, “What the?!”

 

Gansley says, with an evil smile, “When you attack one of my monsters, my Deck Master’s ability allows me to sacrifice two of my other monsters to reflect your attack right back at you directly!” There are gasps as Starving Venom’s attack goes into the ‘black hole’ and another ‘hole’ appears to unleash the attack at Davis and Suguha in which they yelp as they get bombarded causing them to lose 4600 life-points.

 

Kari yells out, worriedly, “Dai-kun!”

 

Tai and Ken say in unison, shocked, “Davis!”

 

Kazuto says, worriedly, “Sugu!”

 

Suguha shouts out, pushing a button on her disk’s touch screen, “Activate trap: Shield of Leeched Life!” Suguha’s face-down card is revealed to be a continuous trap card with a person holding a shield in which energy is going from the person into the shield causing Suguha to say, “Since Davis and I took effect damage, this trap prevents you from attacking with a monster that has equal to less attack points than the points that we lost!”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “That means that Davis’ and Suguha’s opponents can’t attack with a monster that has equal or less than forty-six hundred points!”

 

Davis tells Suguha, with a smile, “Nice rebound!”

 

Suguha says, with a serious tone, “Yeah, nice. It cost us more than half of our life-points.”

 

Davis tells Suguha, “Well, at least, we still have life-points left.”

 

Suguha says, with a nod, “Yeah…” Suguha says, putting one card on his disk, “Next, I summon Performapal Gongato!” Soon after, Performapal Gongato (100/100) appears on the field in attack mode and Suguha says, “And now, I tune Banksiogre with Gongato!” Banksiogre turns into six stars that turn into six rings that surround Gongato, turning it transparent, and when Suguha gets a Synchro Monster from her Extra Deck, a column of light appears on the field causing Suguha to say, “Spread those wonderous and beautiful wings and strike our enemies down at lightspeed! Synchro Summon!” Suguha yells out, putting the Synchro Monster card on her duel disk, “Come forth, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon!” Out of the light, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon (2500/2000) appears on the field in attack mode while strange spores attach themselves to the rest of Gansley’s monsters.

 

Gansley asks, “What are these abominations?”

 

Suguha says, “They are Predator Counters. When my Banksiogre goes to the graveyard, it leaves one Predator Counter on each other and since your monsters are higher than level two, all of them become level one monsters as long as they have those counters on them.”

 

Gansley says, with an evil smile, “Is that all? Ha! It doesn’t matter if they are level one or level one hundred. Their stats haven’t changed one bit.”

 

Suguha says, with a plain tone, “We’ll see about that. I end my turn.”

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 3400

Sayer and Gansley: 7800

 

Sayer says, drawing a card, “It’s my move now! I draw!”

 

Suguha says, pushing a button on her disk’s touch screen, “And I activate my next trap: Thunder of a Ruler!” Suguha’s next face-down card is revealed to be the Thunder of a Ruler trap card and Suguha says, “I can only activate this trap in your Standby Phase, but when I do, you can’t attack during this turn!”

 

Sayer says, with a sneer, “You are getting annoying, wench!”

 

Davis says, with a smile, “Too bad and so sad!”

 

Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “We’ll see who will be sad when I’m done with you! I activate my Pot of Greed and draw two new cards from my deck!” Sayer draws two cards from his deck and Sayer says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “I activate my trap: Brain Hazard!” Sayer’s face-down card is revealed to be the Brain Hazard continuous trap card and Sayer says, with a wide smirk, “And now, I can revive one of my monsters removed from play and I choose my Mental Seeker!” Mental Seeker (800/600-1300/600) returns to the field in attack mode and Sayer says, with a wicked smile, “And since he was returned to the field after being removed from play, he can force you to reveal the top three cards in your deck and I choose one of them to be removed from play!” Suguha snarls as her decks glows causing the images of Monster Reborn spell card, Twilight Rose Knight (1000/1000) monster card, and Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn (100/600) Pendulum monster card in which Sayer says, with an evil smile, “Nice cards, but they are hitting the road in which I remove your Monster Reborn!” The image of Monster Reborn vanishes as the card ‘vanishes’ from Suguha’s deck while it is reshuffled in which Sayer says, putting one card on his disk, “Since I have a Psychic monster on my field, I can play Armored Axon Kicker without the need to release another monster!” Soon after Armored Axon Kicker (2200/1800-2700/1800) appears on the field in attack mode and Sayer says, with an evil smile, “And now, I tune my Mental Seeker with Armored Axon Kicker!” Mental Seeker turns into three stars that turn into three rings that surround Armored Axon Kicker, turning it transparent, and when Sayer takes a Synchro Monster card from his Extra Deck, a column of light appears on the field causing Sayer to say, “Titan of the mind, come forth and blast your way into eternity! Synchro Summon!” Sayer puts the Synchro Monster card on his duel disk and he yells out, “Come forth, Hyper Psychic Blaster!” Out of the light, Hyper Psychic Blaster (3000/2500-3500/2500) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Yolei says, nervously, “Yipe!”

 

Suguha thinks in her mind, with a plain tone, “That thing may be powerful, but that jerk can’t attack at all and also, he uses an effect from a level five or above monster or uses a monster effect on a level five or above monster, his monster will get smashed by Clear Wing.”

 

Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot, “You may have stopped my attacks, but you can’t stop my Telekinetic Twister spell card! When I Special Summon a Psychic monster, all monsters on your field that have a lower level or rank than my Psychic monster get crushed!”

 

There are gasps of shock and surprise in which Davis yells out, “No way!” Just then Hyper Psychic Blaster unleashes a ‘psychic storm’ that destroys Davis’ two monsters along with Suguha’s four monsters are destroyed in which Sayer says, with a wicked mocking tone, “Ah, don’t worry. There is a good side for you. You get one card for every monster destroyed.”

 

Davis says, with a snarl, “How nice.”

 

As Davis and Suguha draw six cards from their decks and Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot, “You won’t be so happy soon enough! First, I play Monster Reborn! I use it to revive Psychic Lifetrancer!” Psychic Lifetrancer (2400/2000-2900/2000) returns to the field in attack mode and Sayer says, with a wicked smile, “Next, I use her ability and remove one Psychic monster to have my partner and I gain twelve hundred life-points!” Armored Axon Kicker (2200/1800) is removed from the graveyard slot of Sayer’s disk and Sayer and Gansley glow as their life-points increase by 1200 points in which Sayer puts another card into the main slot of his disk, saying, “And then I play my Psi-Impulse spell card! By releasing one Psychic monster, you are forced to return your hands to your deck and then draw three new cards from it!”

 

As Psychic Lifetrancer vanishes causing their hands to glow in which Davis and Suguha gasp and Davis says, annoyed, “You are becoming a real pain in the ass!” Davis and Suguha put their hands back into their decks, their decks are shuffled, and both of them draw three new cards from their decks.

 

Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Oh, the real pain is yet to come. I place one card face-down and end my turn.” As Sayer’s turn ends, his Deck Master boosts his and Gansley’s life-points by 600 more points.

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 3400

Sayer and Gansley: 9600

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “My move!” Just then a card appears in Davis’ hand and Davis says, “And now, this card returns to me!” Davis displays Card from a Different Dimension spell card and he says, “Card from a Different Dimension! When removed from play, it comes back to me during my next Standby Phase and now, all of us have to draw two cards from our decks!” All four duelists draw two cards from their respective decks in which Davis says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I play this: Greed Across Dimensions! By removing one spell card from play, I can draw two more cards!” A card vanishes from Davis’ hand and he draws two more cards.

 

Ken thinks in his mind, “Most likely, it is Card from a Different Dimension, so, Davis can get more cards next turn.”

 

Davis says, as a crystal pendulum appears between the two Pendulum monsters, “Since this is a tag duel, I use Suguha’s set scale! Now, I can summon monsters that are levels two through seven this turn! Swing, Pendulum! Create the gate of light to victory! Pendulum Summon!” Davis puts three cards on his duel disk and he shouts out, “Time to roar! Lector Pendulum, Luster Pendulum, and Master Pendulum!” A circle of light appears on the field, three lights comes from the circle, and those three ‘lights’ are revealed to be Lector Pendulum, the Dracoverlord (1950/0), a grey and dark violet armored humanoid as well as fiendish looking monster with dragon wings and tail, Luster Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1850/0), grey and pearly white armored humanoid dragon knight, and Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1950/0), a golden and pearly white armored humanoid dragon knight, appear on the field in attack mode.

 

Suguha gasps and she yells out, “Davis, when did you get Pendulum monsters?”

 

The others are stunned and Yolei asks, confused, “Wait! When did Davis have Pendulum monster cards?!”

 

Mimi says, amazed, “Got me, Yolei.”

 

Yuuko can’t help to get an amazed look on her face and Davis says, “I’m just that awesome! And now, I tune Luster Pendulum with Master Pendulum!” Luster Pendulum turns into four stars that turn into four rings that surround Master Pendulum, turning it transparent, and a column of light appears when Davis takes a Synchro Monster card from his Extra Deck causing him to say, “Dragon slayer of flame, burst onto the field in a roar of fire! Synchro Summon!” Davis puts a Synchro Monster card on his disk and he yells out, “Meet Ignister Prominence, the Blasting Dracoslayer!” Out of the light, Ignister Prominence, the Blasting Dracoslayer (2850/0), a black and red armored dragon knight with a massive black lance and a shield with similar colors to his armor, appears on the field in attack mode. Davis says, as a card comes out of his deck, “Now, I activate his ability! With it, I can summon one Dracoslayer from my deck to the field! And I choose another Master Pendulum!” Davis puts the card on his duel disk and another Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1950/0) appears on the field in defense mode. Davis then says, “And now, I Overlay Lector Pendulum with Master Pendulum and build the Overlay Network!” The two said monsters turn into lights that goes into a vortex on the ground while Davis puts their Pendulum Monsters cards on the same Monster Card Zone before putting an XYZ Monster card from his Extra Deck on top of them in which Davis says, “I XYZ Summon Majester Paladin, the Ascending Dracoslayer!” Out of the vortex, Majester Paladin, the Ascending Dracoslayer (1850/2000), a white and dark blue armored humanoid dragon knight riding a white feathered black armored dragon with two Wind Overlay Units orbiting it, appears on the field in defense mode. Davis says, “Now, I activate his ability! By removing an Overlay Unit, I can summon one Dracoslayer Pendulum monster from my Extra Deck, but I can’t use it to XYZ Summon! Return, Master Pendulum!” A card comes out of Davis’ Extra Deck and when Davis puts it on his disk, Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1950/0) returns to the field in attack mode.

 

Gansley asks, confused, “What?!”

 

Sayer says, plainly, “When Pendulum Monsters on the field are destroyed, they don’t get sent to the graveyard, they are sent to a player’s Extra Deck, face-up, where they can be returned to the field via Pendulum Summoning or by abilities of other monsters to summon them.”

 

Gansley says, with a sneer, “A nasty little asset.”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk, “Unless they are used as Overlay Units for an XYZ Monster causing them to go to the graveyard, but that’s useful for this kind of card! I play Pendulum Reborn!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Pendulum Reborn trap card and Davis says, “With it, I can revive one Pendulum monster in my Extra Deck or my graveyard and I choose the Master Pendulum in my graveyard!” Just then a second Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1950/0) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, “And since I have a Dracoslayer with another Pendulum Monster, I can fuse them together without Polymerization!” Soon after, both Master Pendulums goes into a fusion vortex while Davis gets out a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck.

 

Gansley asks, shocked, “Fusion Summoning WITHOUT Polymerization?!”

 

Davis says, putting the Fusion Monster card on his disk, “That’s right, pal! I Fusion Summon Dinoster Power, the Mighty Dracoslayer!” Out of the fusion vortex, Dinoster Power, the Mighty Dracoslayer (2000/2950), a massive blue armored humanoid warrior with a blue armored tail with massive sword and blue colored shield, appears on the field in defense mode. Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Next, I activate my Draco Inheritance spell card! For every Draco monster that was Special Summoned during this turn, up to this point, I get one card from my deck!”

 

Tai says, with a smile, “Since Davis Special Summoned half-a-dozen of those guys, he gets six new cards!”

 

Davis draws six new cards and he says, putting one card on his disk, “Then I activate Dinoster Power’s ability! Once per turn, I can summon a Dracoslayer Pendulum Monster from my hand or graveyard, but it can’t be used for a Fusion Summoning! I choose this: Another Master Pendulum!” Just then a third Master Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1950/0) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, putting another card on his disk, “Next, I play my Magna Drago in attack mode!” Magna Drago (1400/600) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, “I tune Magna Dragon with Master Pendulum!” Magna Drago turns into two stars that turn into two rings that surround Master Pendulum, turning it transparent, and when Davis gets a Synchro Monster from his Extra Deck, a column of light appears on the field and Davis says, “Sacred wings that command the meteor shower, ride the wind of souls around the world! Synchro Summon!” Davis puts the Synchro Monster card on his disk and he yells out, “Stardust Charge Warrior, let’s rev it up!” Out of the light, Stardust Charge Warrior (2000/1300) appears on the field in attack mode and Davis says, drawing a card, “When he is brought to the field, I get one extra card from my deck!”

 

Gansley says, with a grin, “Too bad that none of those monsters can defeat my associate’s monster, but then again, my tactic is making sure that you can’t attack…not unless you want to lose!”

 

Davis says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “We’ll see about that! I throw down two face-downs and end my turn, but before that, my Majester’s ability allows me to add one Pendulum Monster from my deck to my hand!” A card comes out of Davis’ deck and he puts it into his hand.

 

Gansley says, drawing a card, “Very well! My move! I draw!”

 

Davis says, “Too bad that you can’t attack us either.”

 

Gansley says, with a grin, “It doesn’t matter because if you want to save that little girl, you are the one that needs to attack! We just need to wait for you to break down!” Gansley says, putting one card on his disk, “First, I start with my Wall of Illusion!” Just then Wall of Illusion (1000/1850-1500/1850) appears on the field in defense mode and Gansley says, with a wicked smile, “Oh, if you attack my latest addition to my monster force, your monster is sent back to your hand!” Gansley says, discarding one card from his hand, “Next, I activate my Monk’s ability and discard one spell card to play one monster card from my deck!” A card comes out of Gansley’s deck and he says, putting it on his disk, “And my Aqua Madoor shall do nicely!” Just then Aqua Madoor (1200/2000-1700/2000) appears on the field in defense mode and Gansley says, drawing two cards, “By the by, the card that I discard was my Card of Compensation! I nice investment since it allows me to draw two more cards since I sent it from my hand to the grave!” Gansley puts one more card into the main slot of his disk and he says, “And a wise investment indeed! I activate my Mist Body equip spell! As long as this card is equipped to my shield, my shield is unable to be destroyed in battle!”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, “But all that can attack is that shield!”

 

Kazuto says, “I think that’s their tactic here. One of them acts as a ‘shield’ while the other acts as the ‘sword’.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a nod, “Yeah, you’re right, Kazuto.”

 

Gansley says, with an evil smile, “That’s enough for one turn.”

 

Suguha says, drawing a card, “My move! I draw!” Suguha looks at her hand and she thinks in her mind, “Damn it! I was hoping not to get these cards! I could give Alita-san a heart attack, but if I want to save her, I can’t let personal feelings get the better of me! I hope that Alita-san won’t get too traumatized.” Suguha shouts out, as an image of a crystal pendulum swinging appears on the field, “With my set Pendulum Scale, I can summon monsters that are levels two to seven for this turn! Swing, pendulum! Draw the arc of light to victory! Pendulum Summon!” A card comes out of Suguha’s Extra Deck and she says, while putting the card and another from her hand on her duel disk, “Revive from the Extra Deck, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon! And come forth, Red-Eyes Black Dragon!” A circle of light appears on the field, two lights come from that circle, and those lights are revealed to be Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000) and Red-Eyes Black Dragon (2400/2000) in attack mode.

 

Alita gets fearful when she sees Red-Eyes Black Dragon and she thinks in her mind, with fear in her eyes, “No…Not that monster…Not that monster…”

 

The others see this and Rika asks, curiously, “What’s wrong with her?”

 

Yolei says, curiously, “It is like she hasn’t seen a Solid Vision ‘projection’ of a Duel Monster before.”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a serious expression, “No, Yolei. It is more like she has seen one…Namely, she has seen THAT monster before and it terrifies her.”

 

That causes plenty of mixed reactions and plenty of questions to form in their minds causing Yuuko to think, “It is almost time…”

 

Suguha says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “Then I activate my Inferno Fire Blast spell card! With Red-Eyes on the field, you take damage equal to its original attack points, but Red-Eyes can’t attack this turn.” Red-Eyes Black Dragon fires a fireball directly at Sayer and Gansley and they roar out as it hits them causing them to lose 2400 life-points.

 

Sayer asks, with a scoff, “Ha! Is that all?”

 

Suguha says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “Oh, I’ve got more to come, but I end my turn!”

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 3400

Sayer and Gansley: 7200

 

Sayer says, drawing a card, “It is my move, witch! I draw!” Sayer says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “I activate my trap: Battle Teleportation!” Sayer’s face-down card is revealed to be the Battle Teleportation trap card and Sayer says, with a wicked smile, “Since I have only one Psychic monster on my field, I can attack you directly with that monster!”

 

Suguha says, with a plain tone, “You can’t due to my trap card!”

 

Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Not with my Mystical Space Typhoon! Now, your trap card is blown away!” A wind storm comes onto the field and destroys Suguha’s Shield of Leeched Life continuous trap card and Sayer says, with an evil smile, “Now, my Blaster can attack you directly! This duel is over!”

 

As Hyper Psychic Blaster aims its weapons directly at Suguha, she yells out, pushing a button on her disk’s touch screen, “I activate my face-down card: Roulette Spider!” Suguha’s face-down card is revealed to be the Roulette Spider Quick-Play spell card and Suguha says, “When you attack, I can play this spell card! Now, I roll a six and what happens is depended on the roll!” The dice rolls on the screen and lands on four in which Suguha says, with a smile, “That means that I change your monster’s attack to another monster that I choose! And I think that I choose…Summoner Monk!” Hyper Psychic Blaster targets Summoner Monk instead of Suguha and fires its weapons, destroying it, causing Sayer and Gansley to lose 1900 life-points, and Gansley gives an annoyed look at that.

 

Gansley says, annoyed, “You are a real pest, young lady.”

 

Suguha says, with a sly smirk, “And I’m going to be a real pain since that jerk’s monster is going to become mind at the end of the turn!”

 

Sayer says, with a smirk, “Oh, you think so? Don’t count on it! My Blaster’s ability allows us to regain the life-points that you forced us to lose!” As Sayer’s and Gansley’s life-points go back up by 1900 points, Sayer says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “I end my turn with a face-down.”

 

Suguha says, “And now, your Hyper Psychic Blaster becomes Davis’ and mine due to your trap card!”

 

Hyper Psychic Blaster teleports over to Suguha’s side, but Sayer says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “I think not! Not with my Reverse Brainwashing!” Sayer’s face-down card is revealed to be the Reverse Brainwashing continuous trap card and Sayer says, with a dark sly smile, “As long as this card remains on the field, all monsters remain with their owners as long as this card remains on the field!” Hyper Psychic Blaster then returns to Sayer’s side of the field and Sayer says, with a grin, “And that ends my turn.” Soon after, Sayer and Gansley gain 600 more life-points due to the ability of Sayer’s Deck Master.

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 3400

Sayer and Gansley: 7800

 

Davis says, drawing a card, “Then it is my turn!” Davis says, as a card appears in his hand, “And remember this card? My Card from a Different Dimension! Since I removed it from play last turn, it comes back to me during my next Standby Phase and all of us draw two cards from our decks!” All four duelists then, each, draw two cards from their respective decks and Davis says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Double Spell card! By sending one spell to the grave, I can use one spell card from your grave!” Davis discards his Card from a Different Dimension spell card and a card comes out of the graveyard slot of Sayer’s disk in which Davis says, putting the card into the main slot of his disk, “And I choose Pot of Greed! That gives me two more cards!” Davis draws two more cards from his deck and Davis says, “And now, I activate Majester Paladin’s ability! By removing one Overlay Unit, I can summon one Dracoslayer Pendulum monster from my Extra Deck, but I can’t use it to XYZ Summon! Return, Luster Pendulum!” Just then Luster Pendulum, the Dracoslayer (1850/0) returns to the field in attack mode and Davis says, putting one more card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate Polymerization!” Davis discards one card from his hand and he says, “I fuse all of my Dracoslayers with the Montage Dragon in my hand!” Montage Dragon (?/0) appears on the field and goes into a fusion vortex with Ignister Prominence, Majester Paladin, Dinoster Power, and Luster Pendulum while Davis takes out a Fusion Monster card from his Extra Deck.

 

Gansley says, stunned, “What?! Five dragons?! You can’t be…!!”

 

Davis shouts out, with a sly smirk, “I can be! I Fusion Summon Five-Headed Dragon!” Out of the fusion vortex, Five-Headed Dragon (5000/5000) appears on the field in attack mode.

 

Plenty of the others are amazed and Yolei yells out, shocked, “No way!”

 

TK says, “I think that we should say ‘yes way’ when it comes to Davis, Yolei.”

 

Gansley becomes a bit nervous and Sayer says, with a plain tone, “Stop worrying. Thanks to your Deck Master ability, not to mention, your combo of spell cards equip to your shield, he can’t even think of attacking us!”

 

Davis says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “Think again! I play my Slayer Storm Quick-Play spell! Now, monsters on your field are destroyed based on the number of Dracoslayer monsters that have left the field!” Sayer and Gansley gasp in shock and Davis says, with a grin, “That’s right! Say goodbye to your monsters, baka!” The image of the four Dracoslayer that were used in the Fusion Summoning of Five-Headed Dragon appears on the field and they create a storm that destroys the remaining four of Gansley’s monsters out on the field!

 

Gansley shouts out, “No!”

 

Davis shouts out, “Oh, yeah! Now, Five-Headed Dragon can take care of your last monster!” Five-Headed Dragon then unleashes five elemental attack from its five heads that vaporizes Hyper Psychic Blaster causing Gansley and Sayer to scream out as they lose 1500 life-points.

 

Sayer says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “And my Psi-Curse trap card will take care of you!” Sayer’s face-down card is revealed to be the Psi-Curse trap card and Sayer says, “Since you destroyed my Psychic monster in battle, the monster that destroyed mine is destroyed!”

 

Davis yells out, stunned, “No!” Davis and Suguha yelp out as Five-Headed Dragon is destroyed in a massive explosion.

 

Sayer says, with an evil smile, “You also take damage equal to three hundred times the level of my destroyed monster!” Davis and Suguha scream out as they are shocked causing them to lose 2700 life-points!

 

The others gasp in shock and Kotone says, worriedly, “Oh no! That nearly took all of their life-points!”

 

Rika says, nervously, “That’s not good.”

 

Davis yells out, strongly, “But you are now defenseless! Stardust Charge Warrior, kick them to the curb!” Stardust Charge Warrior fires a barrage that slams into Sayer and Gansley causing them to grunt as they lose 2000 life-points. Davis says, with a plain tone, “That’s it from me.”

 

Current Scores:

Suguha and Davis: 700

Sayer and Gansley: 4400

 

Gansley says, drawing a card, “And it will be over for both of you!” Gansley says, putting one card into the main slot of his disk, “First, I activate my Card of Sanctity! Now, all of us must draw from our decks until we have six cards in our hands!” All four duelists draw cards from their respective decks until they, each, have six cards in their respective hands. Gansley then says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I play Silent Doom! I use it to revive my Millennium Shield!” Just then Millennium Shield (0/3000-500/3000) returns to the field in defense mode and Gansley says, putting another card into the main slot of his disk, “Then I activate my Re-Equip Force spell card! Now, I can equip my shield with as many equip cards in my graveyard as possible as long as I banish one card from my deck per card! So, I re-equip my Shield with Ring of Magnetism and Mist Body equip spells!” Just then an energy ring appears around Millennium Shield causing its stats to go down from 500/3000 to 0/2500 while the top two cards from Gansley’s deck ‘vanishes’.

 

Sailor Venus says, annoyed, “Not again.”

 

Gansley says, putting two cards into the main slot of his disk, “Oh, yes, young lady! I end with two cards face-down!”

 

Suguha says, drawing a card, “Then it is my move!” Suguha looks at her hand and she think in her mind, nervously, “There is only one way to end this now, but if I play this card, I could reopen the ‘wounds’ in Alita-san! But I really don’t have much choice! I need to end this now!” Suguha says, putting one card on her disk, “I release Red-Eyes Black Dragon to play Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon in attack mode!” Red-Eyes Black Dragon roars out as it is engulfed in dark flames and ‘transforms’ into Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon (2400/2000) in attack mode.

 

Yuuko thinks in her mind, with a mental smirk, “Excellent.” Alita looks at Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon with pure fear and terror in her eyes as horrifying images come back to her mind.

 

Alita screams out in pure terror, “NO!!!”

 

The others look at Alita in pure confusion and Suguha thinks in her mind, concerned, “Damn! I’ve got end this now!” Suguha shouts out, “Darkness Dragon’s ability! He gains three hundred attack points for every dragon in my graveyard, but since Davis and I are sharing a graveyard, his grave counts, too! I have half-a-dozen dragons in the grave with Davis having nine dragons in the grave! That’s a total of fifteen dragons and fifty-five hundred attack points!” Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon roars out with power as it goes from 2400/2000 to 7900/2000 and Suguha says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “And now, the card that will end this duel and you! I activate my Fairy Meteor Crush! With this card equipped to Red-Eyes, when he attacks a monster in defense mode, you take the damage equal to the difference! It doesn’t matter that your monster can’t be destroyed, you sure can be!” Suguha shouts out, “Red-Eyes, attack Millennium Shield! End this duel now with Inferno Dark Fire!”

 

Kazuto says, concerned, “Sugu, wait!” However, it is too late as Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon attacks Millennium Shield.

 

Gansley says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Wrong, my dear! It is your end! I activate my Attack Guidance Armor!” Gansley’s face-down card is revealed to be the Attack Guidance Armor trap card and Gansley says, “And now, I redirect your attack to another monster on the field and I choose your precious Odd-Eyes!” Odd-Eyes roars out as the Attack Guidance Armor snaps onto Odd-Eyes and Gansley says, with an evil smile, “Now, take your attack and fall!” Red-Eyes’ attack redirects right back at Odd-Eyes.

 

Sora says, shocked, “Oh no! They’ll lose!”

 

Davis says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Activate trap: Life Force!” Davis’ face-down card is revealed to be the Life Force continuous trap card and Davis says, “By paying four hundred life-points, I negate all battle damage!” Odd-Eyes screams out as it is destroyed, but a shield protects Suguha and Davis while their life-points drop by 400 points.

 

Gansley says, with an evil smirk, “Not bad, boy, but you can’t use that trick twice! You only have three hundred life-points left!”

 

Yuuko says, plainly, “I’m surprised that you would help her out, but since you are two are dueling together, you need to save her.”

 

Davis says, with a glare, “It’s more than that. We’re friends and friends help out each other.”

 

Yuuko responds, “Would that be the case if you knew the truth?”

 

Davis says, annoyed, “Truth? What truth? I’m sick and tired of your games, girl!”

 

Yuuko asks, pointing to Alita, “Question: Why did this girl scream out in pure terror at the right of THAT dragon?” The others are surprised, but Yuuko says, pointing to Suguha, “Answer: It is because THAT very same dragon was used against her to terror her by none other than her!” There are gasps of shock and Suguha flinches from that. Yuuko says, “Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon is a monster created from the darkness of Suguha’s heart and forged by the Orichalcos itself when she played the Seal of Orichalcos.”

 

There are more gasps of shock and Kazuto yells out, angrily, “What kind of sick game are you playing?”

 

Yuuko responds, “You think that I’m lying? Then why isn’t Suguha denying it?” Everyone looks at Suguha and she has her head lowered down causing them to be surprised by this.

 

Sailor Star asks, surprised, “Suguha-chan?”

 

Yuuko says, “You’ve found out what happened to Suguha when she was bitten by that vampire, correct? Even through she didn’t know it at the time, the ‘monster’ within her ‘stirred’ causing all sorts of grief and panic. It got even worse when she spied on Neo Paradius starting their work. Before I took command, Neo Paradius was led by someone else and with the chaos of SAO, they started their work. Work that Suguha found herself in the middle of when she witnessed them performing their ‘work’. As you may expect, Suguha had to be silenced.”

 

Hiyori asks, nervously, “Silenced?”

 

Yuuko says, “A member of Neo Paradius was ordered to find her and seal her soul away to silence her. However, he made the mistake of remembering that Suguha had taken an Orichalcos stone and decided on a nasty trick. During the duel that he forced her into you, he used the Exchange spell card to get the Seal of Orichalcos into her hand and tempt her to play it.”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, shocked, “Don’t tell me…”

 

Yuuko says, with a nod, “He got her so afraid that Suguha played the Seal of Orichalcos.” The others gasps in shock and Yuuko says, “And thus, Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon was born, but Neo Paradius’ duelist sent against her miscalculated and he was the one that was sealed. The leader of Neo Paradius then recruited Suguha into Neo Paradius.”

 

Mimi asks, looking at Suguha, “Suguha was one of them?”

 

Yuuko says, with a nod, “Exactly. In fact, she was the reason that I am the leader today. She was the one that recruited me into this organization that I, now, lead.” There are more stunned looks and Yuuko says, “And we became fast friends. It is obvious why.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “Family members trapped in SAO.”

 

Yuuko says, nodding her head, “Indeed. Before SAO, my brother and I used the NervGear to play other VR games and we believed in the technology. I had told Suguha about this and let just say that at the time, she wasn’t too ‘thrilled’. Her hatred of Full-Dive VR was beyond comprehension through it was just part of her anger and fury against the world with what was happening to her at the time. However, despite our differences at VR at the time, we swore that we would get justice against all those that created that horror despite their so-called ‘innocence’.” Yuuko says, pointing to Alita, “And Suguha was one of the best at her job. She made sure that pieces of filth like this were put where they belonged: Sealed away.” Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “I think that you know where I’m getting at all this, Daisuke Motomiya. You already realize that the attack on the Digidestined orphanage wasn’t an attack to seal the modified Medicuboid tech, it was to destroy it.” Yuuko says, pointing to Suguha, “And there is the leader of the attacking force.”

 

There are more gasps and Davis shouts out, “No way!”

 

Yuuko then retorts, “Then ask her and her Digimon partners?” Yuuko asks Agumon (Suguha) and Lunamon, “Well, am I lying? Am I?”

 

Every other Digimon looks at Suguha’s two Digimon partners and Veemon asks Lunamon, “Lunamon?”

 

Lunamon says, solemnly, “I-It’s true…”

 

There are gasps of shock and Agumon (Suguha) says, “But boss wasn’t herself! That evil stone was messing with her head! We always knew that even through we became her partners after she was infected with all that ‘bad stuff’.”

 

Yuuko says, “That’s my case.”

 

Lunamon asks, with a stern tone, “Aren’t you forgetting something, Yuuko?” Everyone looks at Lunamon and she says, “Despite her mind being twisted, some of the good in Suguha still got through and when she heard that it was an orphanage with parentless Digidestined kids, she refused to attack the facility unless she found otherwise. She sent a scouting team to get the information and they found out that it did have parentless Digidestined kids with their partners in which you were the first to get that information. When Suguha asked you about it…You lied and told her that information was false!” There are looks of shock and surprise and Lunamon shouts out, accusingly, “You lied to Suguha because you wanted her to carry out the attack! You didn’t care about innocent children and you never cared about Suguha! You just wanted to use her for your own gains!”

 

Yuuko says, narrowing her eyes, “I was doing what was necessary. She was being held back by her stupid so-called morality. I was helping do what needs to be done.”

 

Suguha, her head down, says, lowly, “There were innocent children there, Yuuko…”

 

Yuuko says, with a plain tone yet stern look in her eyes, “NO ONE is innocent, Suguha. Not you. Not her. Not anymore. And everyone will pay for your actions.”

 

Suguha shouts out, strongly with a hint of ‘darkness’ in it, “No way…I refuse to let that happen…this madness end NOW!!!” Suguha unleashes a strong ‘dark aura’ with a look of rage in her eyes as, in a flash, she transforms into Valkyrie Sailor Celestial.

 

The others are shocked and Kazuto yells out, “Sugu!”

 

Sailor Celestial says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “I activate my Quick-Play spell: Pendulum Shuffle! By sending the Pendulum cards in my Pendulum Zone to my Extra Deck, I can draw two new cards and if they are Pendulum cards, I can set them in my Pendulum Zone and draw two more cards!” Odd-Eyes Persona and Mirage Dragons vanish as Sailor Celestial draws two new cards, displaying Xiangke Magician (2500/500) and Xiangsheng Magician (500/1500) Pendulum Monster cards, “I take scale three, Xiangke Magician, and scale eight, Xiangsheng Magician, and re-set the Pendulum Scale!” Sailor Celestial puts the cards on her disk’s Pendulum Zones causing the word ‘Pendulum’ to appear in rainbow color on her disk’s Monster Card Zones in which said monsters appear in two columns of light, one monster per column, and the number 3 below Xiangke with the number 8 below Xiangsheng in which Sailor Celestial draws two cards. Sailor Celestial says, putting one card into the main slot, “Next, you worthless worm, I activate my Trap Booster! By discarding one card in my hand to the grave, I can activate one trap card from my hand!” Sailor Celestial discards one card from her hand and she yells out, putting one more card into the main slot of her disk, “I activate my XYZ Reborn! This card allows me to revive one XYZ Monster from my grave and I attach this card to it as an Overlay Unit! Revive, Dark Rebellion!” Dark Rebellion (2500/2000) returns to the field in attack mode in which it regains one Dark Overlay Unit and Sailor Celestial says, drawing two more cards, “And the card that I discarded was one that you know! Card of Compensation! That means that since I discarded it from my hand, I get two more cards!” Just then a crystal pendulum appears on the field and Sailor Celestial says, with a dark tone, “And now, with my re-set Pendulum Scale, I can summon monsters that are levels four through seven this turn! Swing, Pendulum! Draw the arc of light to victory! Pendulum Summon!” A card comes out of Sailor Celestial’s Extra Deck and she yells out, with a dark strong tone, “Revive from the Extra Deck, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!” Sailor Celestial puts the card on her disk as a circle of light appears on the field, a light comes from that circle, and that ‘light’ is revealed to be Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000) in attack mode.

 

Gansley says, with a smirk, “We beat that dragon before and we will beat it again!”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a dark snarl, “Not this, you pathetic tool! Thanks to my Magicians’ abilities, my Dark Rebellion becomes a level seven when I XYZ Summon using him!”

 

Sayer asks, surprised, “What?!”

 

As the dark aura surrounds her, Sailor Celestial yells out, with a dark serious tone, “Using the powers of Xiangke and Xiangsheng Magicians, I overlay now my now level seven Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon and my Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!” Both monsters then turn into lights that goes into a vortex in the ground as both monsters’ cards go onto the same Monster Card Zone on Sailor Celestial’s duel disk while a new monster card with the top half of the border of the card being black like an XYZ monster and the bottom green like a Spell/Pendulum monster appears on her duel disk and over the two other monster cards. Sailor Celestial says, with a dark serious tone, “Dragon of duel colored eyes! Eradicate your enemies who oppose you with your scales of wrath! XYZ Summon! Appear before me, black dragon king: Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon!” Out of the vortex, Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon (3000/2500), a massive black armored dragon mixed with red and blue stripes at certain points with Odd-Eyes’ red and green eyes, appears on the field in attack mode with a massive vortex of ‘dark wind’ coming off it.

 

The others are shocked by this and Kazuto says, lowly and in a worried tone, “Sugu…”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a dark angered tone, “Now, you ass, it’s time for to you pay!” Sailor Celestial yells out, with a dark strong tone, “Odd-Eyes Rebellion’s ability! When XYZ Summon using an XYZ Monster, Odd-Eyes Rebellion destroys all monsters that are level seven or below on your field and you lose one thousand life-points for each one!” Sayer and Gansley gasp in shock and Sailor Celestial screams out, with a dark strong tone, “Darkness Howling!” Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon unleashes an earthly howl that destroys Millennium Shield and Sayer and Gansley grunt as they lose 1000 life-points.

 

Keiko says, nervously, “That dragon is scary.”

 

Matt says, “I fear more than ‘scary’ describes that dragon, Keiko.”

 

Gansley says, with a sneer, “Too bad that you already attacked this turn and you can’t attack again!”

 

Sailor Celestial says, putting one card into the main slot of her disk, “Wrong! With my Pendulum Reversal Quick-Play spell card, since I didn’t attack with a Pendulum monsters on my field and I have one on my field with both of my Pendulum Zones having one, I can return to my Battle Phase and any Pendulum monster that didn’t attack this turn, so far, can attack now!”

 

Sayer and Gansley shout out in unison, stunned, “No way!”

 

Sailor Celestial yells out, “Odd-Eyes Rebellion make them pay! Rebellious Wrath Strike Disobey!”

 

Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon charges in with its fang glowing, but Gansley says, pushing a button on his disk’s touch screen, “Not so fast, little lady! I activate my Defense Draw!” Gansley’s face-down card is revealed to be the Defense Draw trap card and Gansley says, with a wicked smile, “This protects us from your attack and I also get a card!” A shield protects Sayer and Gansley from Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon in which Gansley says, with an evil smile while drawing a card, “All that and your attack ended for not! It’s over!”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a dark sneer, “It is…for you!” Gansley and Sayer give confused looks and Sailor Celestial says, “Since Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon destroyed monsters with its ability, it can attack THREE times this turn!”

 

Sayer and Gansley shout out in unison, in disbelief, “THREE times?!”

 

Sailor Celestial yells out, with a dark strong tone, “Odd-Eyes, show the power of your rage! Attack again!” Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon unleashes a powerful burst of ‘dark energy’ from its mouth that slams into Sayer and Gansley causing them to scream out in agony and pain as they lose 3000 life-points. Sailor Celestial yells out, “And now, it is time to end you, fools, for good! Odd-Eyes, end this!”

 

Kazuto shouts out, concerned, “Sugu, no!”

 

Sailor Celestial shouts out, with a dark strong tone and ignoring Kazuto, “Rebellious Wrath Strike Disobey!!!” Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon then dive-bombs Sayer and Gansley in which the two of them scream out as they are flung into the air as they lose 3000 more life-points as well as the duel.

 

Final Scores:

Sailor Celestial and Davis: 300

Sayer and Gansley: 0

 

With the end of the duel, Sayer and Gansley crash into the ground, their form smoking, and they fall into unconscious as the Real Solid Vision ‘projections’ vanish while the Seal of Orichalcos surrounds the two of them in which, in their unconscious conditions, they don’t scream or yell as their souls are sealed away while Sailor Celestial falls down on one knee, breathing heavily as the ‘dark aura’ fades away from her.

 

As she slowly gets to her feet, Sailor Celestial tells Yuuko, with a weary tone yet tough look in her eyes, “Now, let Alita-san go Yuuko.”

 

Yuuko doesn’t say a word for several seconds and she then says, plainly, “Fine.” Yuuko snaps her fingers and the force-field around Alita then vanishes in which Yuuko says, displaying an activated Chaos Duel Disk with a Harpy Lady (1300/1400) monster card on it, “However, I didn’t say…that I would let her live!” Just then Alita screams out as a Harpy Lady swoops, grabs her by the shoulders, and flies her into the air.

 

Sailor Saturn says, stunned, “Oh no!”

 

Yolei yells out, annoyed, “Hey! No fair!”

 

Sailor Celestial glares at Yuuko, angrily, and Yuuko says, with a plain tone, “Me or her? That’s your only choice.” Sailor Celestial snarls as she takes off after Alita while Yuuko says, plainly, “And that’s why you won’t win against me, Suguha.” Yuuko snaps her fingers causing her to vanish along with the motionless forms of Sayer and Tristan before the others can say or do anything. This causes the Harpy Lady carrying Alita to vanish and she falls down, but Sailor Celestial manages to catch her.

 

Sailor Celestial says, “Got you.”

 

Alita yells out, out of fear, “No! No! Let me go!”

 

Alita struggles in Sailor Celestial’s grip and she yells out, strongly, “Hey, stop that! Do you seriously want to die?!” Alita gasps as she stops struggling to allow Sailor Celestial to get her back to the top of the mountain where Sailor Celestial gently let her down, but Alita runs away from Sailor Celestial in fear and falls down while doing so. Soon after, Sailor Celestial looks to find the others looking at her with various emotions causing her to sigh in which she prepares for a ‘long day’ ahead, but none of them knew that something that looks like a remote controlled UAV, like those used by movie/television studios flying some distance away.

 

May 22, 2026, Tokyo, Unknown location

 

At what looks like a high-tech observatory, Haruka is looking at multiple holographic screens with plenty of them displaying what was happening on Iwo Jima in which Haruka gives a sly smile at this.
