(Music end)

Yusei Life Points: 1800/ Number of cards in hand: 2.

"My turn now. I draw". Yusei said as he calmly drew his card from his deck and looked at it. Serenity had a worried look on her face as she stared at her crush with her hands clapped together, as if she was praying. 'Yusei's in trouble. He has no monsters on his field, Yuya has 3 with two of them having more than 2000 ATK Points'. The teenage girl thought in concern for her crush, before she widened her eyes upon seeing the confident smirk on Yusei's face. 'He's...smirking?' Serenity said in her mind in surprise, realizing that Yusei wasn't backed into a corner just yet.

Yusei added the card into his hand, before he thrust his right hand out. "I activate the effect of Ready! Set! Duel! During the Standby Phase; this card gains a Signal counter". Satellite's Shooting Star told his opponent as the Continuous Spell card began gleaming lightly.

Ready! Set! Duel! counters: 0 + 1 = 1.

He then held up Stardust Phoenix's card with his right hand's index and middle fingers. "Next, I'll Summon my Stardust Phoenix in ATK Mode!" Yuya exclaimed as he placed the card on his Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared besides him, before the phoenix dragon flew out of it and into the air, giving out a fierce cry.

Stardust Phoenix ATK Points: 100/ Level: 1.

"But he won't be sticking around for long. By releasing him..." Yusei began as Stardust Phoenix burst into white sparkles that started coming together, forming a different shape. "...I can Special Summon a Stardust monster from my Graveyard! Welcome back Stardust Pegasus!" He finished explaining as the sparkles completely formed together into Stardust Pegasus's shape, before transforming into the Synchro Monster itself.

Stardust Pegasus ATK Points: 2300/ Level: 7.

"And once again, Arrival of Light's effect activates and allows me to draw once more!" Yusei reminded his opponent as he drew one more card, took a moment to look at it, then placed it in his hand. "Now I activate another effect of Stardust Pegasus! Once a turn, Pegasus allows me to Special Summon a Tuner Monster from either my hand, or Graveyard!" The Synchro Duelist explained his Synchro Monster's effect as Stardust Pegasus spread its wings out fully, before releasing a powerful bright flash of light that forced Yuya to cover his eyes. "Come on back, Stardust Synchron!" Yusei called out as the bright flash of light died down to reveal Stardust Synchron besides Stardust Pegasus.

Stardust Synchron ATK Points: 1500/ Level: 4.

"Stardust Synchron's ability activates! Once again, I can add a Spell/ Trap card that lists Stardust Dragon in its text to my hand!" Yusei reminded his opponent as his deck shuffled for a moment, before stopping with a single card slotted out. Yusei took hold of the card and held it out, revealing it to be a Spell card called "Majestic Absorption". "I chose this one, the Spell Majestic Absorption!" The Synchro Duelist declared his choice, before adding the card to his hand. "Now I'll play the Double Summon Spell card". Yusei said as he took another card and slotted it into his Duel Disk. A larger version of the card appeared besides Arrival of Light's card, before it began gleaming.

"With this card's power, I can Normal Summon again". He explained his Spell's effect as he took a card from his hand and placed it on his Duel Disk's blade. "I Summon Tuning Supporter!" Yusei called out as Tuning Supporter appeared with a flash of light.

Tuning Supporter ATK Points: 100/ Level: 1.

"Now, Level 4 Stardust Synchron tunes with Level 1 Tuning Supporter!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, swiping his right hand out. Tuning Supporter took off into the air, while Stardust Synchron cried out as his whole body started shining like a star, before he transformed into 4 green rings that flew into the air in a straight line. The green rings circled around Tuning Supporter, scanning the Machine-Type Monster with its body turning orange transparent. Turning Supporter's body then dispersed, leaving a single white bright star in the line of green rings. A bright beam then appeared and absorbed the light and rings. "Let's rev it up, Catapult Warrior!" Yusei called out to the heavens as one of his new Synchro Monsters flew out of the beam, before slamming into the ground and took a defensive stance.

Catapult Warrior DEF Points: 1500/ Level: 5.

"Now, I activate Arrival of Light's effect and use its second effect! This one allows me to Special Summon a Tuner Monster from my hand! Like my Steam Synchron!" Yusei explained as he held up Steam Synchron's card with his right hand's index and middle fingers, before swiping it onto his Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared besides him, before Steam Synchron came out of it and puffed out some steam.

Steam Synchron DEF Points: 800/ Level 3.

"Now Tuning Supporter's effect! Since he was used as Synchro Material, I draw another card". Yusei told his student as he drew another card and added it to his hand without looking at it. "I now activate Catapult Warrior's special ability!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out as he thrust his right hand into the air. Catapult Warrior cried out as he held up his fists, before the gem on his chest began glowing red. "First up, Catapult Warrior's effect releases one of my monsters, like Stardust Pegasus..." He began to explain as Stardust Pegasus dispersed into white sparkles, before they were absorbed into Catapult Warrior's chest gem.

"...And then, you take damage equal to the released monster's ATK Points! Let him have it!" Yusei finished explaining as Catapult Warrior fired a powerful white beam from its chest gem at Yuya. The Odd-Eyes Duelist kept a calm look on his face, before he held up Performapal Rain Goat's card. "Whenever I would take effect damage, I can discard my Performapal Rain Goat to negate that damage". Yuya explained his card's effect, before he discarded the card to his Graveyard Zone. A barrier appeared around Yuya, just before the white beam struck it. The barrier remained strong as the beam soon died down, before it disappeared.

Yusei gave an impressed smile, before he looked down at the 2 cards in his hand for a moment, then tilted his head back up. "I activate Stardust Pegasus' ability from the Graveyard!" The former Satellite began as his Graveyard Zone of his Duel Disk glowed, before the cards of Ascension Sky Dragon and Stardust Pegasus came out. Yusei picked up the two cards and held up with his right hand's fingers. "By returning a Synchro Monster like Ascension Sky Dragon to the Extra Deck..." He continued as his Extra Deck opened and he placed Ascension Sky Dragon's card in it. "Then I can Special Summon Stardust Pegasus from the Graveyard!" Yusei concluded, placing the Synchro Monster's card on his Duel Disk's blade. A bright white flash appeared in the air, before it cleared to reveal Stardust Pegasus, who let out a cry.

Stardust Pegasus ATK Points: 2300/ Level: 7.

"However, when Stardust Pegasus leaves the field, it is banished". Satellite's Shooting Star added, before he pointed towards Performapal Skullcrobat Joker with his right hand. "Let's worry about that later! Stardust Pegasus, attack Skullcrobat Joker!" Yusei commanded his Synchro Monster, getting the Synchro Monster to cry out as it began flying down towards Performapal Skullcrobat Joker. "Hold it right there! I play Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon's special ability!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist exclaimed, thrusting his left hand out as Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon ate its last overlay unit.

Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon Overlay unit: 1 - 1 = 0.

"First, your attack is negated..." Yuya began as an icy blue aura appeared around Stardust Pegasus and drained its power, making the Synchro Monster stop in mid-air. "...And then I can Special Summon an Odd-Eyes Monster from my hand, or Graveyard! So come on back, Odd-Eyes Dragon!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist concluded as a black portal appeared in front of him, before Odd-Eyes Dragon slowly rose up from within it.

Odd-Eyes Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 7.

"You may get a monster back, but my Pegasus can still attack again! Take another shot at him!" Yusei commanded as he thrust his right fist out towards Skullcrobat Joker. Stardust Pegasus cried out as it flew down and headbutted the Pendulum Monster, getting Skullcrobat Joker to explode and Yuya to wince. (2300 - 1800 = 500)

Yuya Life Points: 2200 - 500 = 1700.

Stardust Pegasus then flew back towards Yusei's side of the field and landed in front of him. "That's it with this turn. Your move". Yusei declared his turn over, having no other move to make.

Yuya Life Points: 1700/ Number of cards in hand: 0.

"My turn now! I draw!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out as he drew his card by swiping his right hand out to the side, before holding it in front of himself, then added it to his hand. "I'll play Monkeyboard's Pendulum effect once more!" The teenage boy called out as Monkeyboard began playing the board in its mouth. "Once a turn, Monkeyboard allows me to select a Level 4 or lower "Performapal" monster in my deck and add it to my hand". Yuya explained his Pendulum Monster's effect as his deck started shuffling for a moment, before suddenly stopping with a single card slotted out. Yuya grabbed hold of the card with his right hand's index and middle fingers, before he held it up.

"I choose the Level 1 Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn!" Yuya declared his choice, before he added it to his hand. Yusei narrowed his eyes, before he held his right hand into the air. "At this moment, I activate Stardust Synchron's special ability! During my opponent's Main Phase, I can now Synchro Summon!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, getting Yuya to widen his eyes in surprise. "But it's my turn!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out in surprise as Stardust Pegasus spread his wings and took flight, while Steam Synchron transformed into 3 greens rings that chased after the Synchro Monster.

"Heaven! Fate! Principle of all phenomena! Ride the spinning wheel of heaven and manifest here! My Duel Dragon! Break your 5,000 years of silence and descend with the light! Synchro Summon!" Yusei chanted as the 3 rings circled around Stardust Pegasus and scanned him with the Synchro Monster turning orange transparent. The Beast-Type's body then dispersed, revealing 7 bright stars that lined up within the rings, before a bright beam appeared and absorbed them all. "Take flight! Ascension Sky Dragon!" He called out to the heavens as Ascension Sky Dragon flew out of the bright beam and took flight into the sky, before releasing a fierce cry.

Ascension Sky Dragon ATK Points: ?/ Level: 10.

"Why aren't its ATK Points determined?" Yuya questioned in surprise, getting Yusei to smirk at him as he held up his left hand. "That's because of its ability. For every card in my hand, Ascension Sky Dragons gains 1000 ATK Points. Since I've got 2, that's 2000 points for him". Satellite's Shooting Star explained for his student as a white aura appeared around Ascension Sky Dragon, powering him up.

Ascension Sky Dragon ATK Points: ? + 2000 = 2000.

"But they won't stay for long as thanks to my Arrival in Light Spell, I get to draw another card!" Yusei reminded his opponent as he drew another card from his deck. He took a moment to look at it, before adding it to his hand as Ascension Sky Dragon powered up.

Ascension Sky Dragon ATK Points: 2000 + 1000 = 3000.

(Music end)

"This is gonna be a bit troublesome, but not impossible!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out, taking a card from his hand and held it out. "I activate the Spell card, Pendulum Halt!" Yuya called out as the Spell card began gleaming, before he sent it to the Graveyard zone of his Duel Disk. "If I have three face-up or more Pendulum Monsters in my Extra Deck, this card allows me to drew 3 cards!" He explained his Spell card's effect, getting Yusei to narrow his eyes. 'He's got Performapal Skullcrobat Joker, Ladyange and Gentrude in his Extra Deck, so he's got enough'. Yusei thought to himself as Yuya drew 3 more cards from his deck with his right hand and held them up.

"The only downside is that for the rest of the turn, I can't add any more cards from my deck to the hand". Yuya informed his mentor as he picked up one of the cards and flipped it over to show that it was Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn. "Now, I'll set the Pendulum Scale with Scale 8 Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn! I'm taking control of this Duel starting now!" Yuya called out as he held his right hand out to the side, before he swiped it over his Duel Disk and placed Odd-Eyes Unicorn's card on the left edge of the blade.

The words "Pendulum" appeared in rainbow colours, causing the Duel Disk's blade to sparkle for a moment. A second blue pillar appeared with Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn rising up from within it, before the Pendulum Monster stopped with the number "8" appearing underneath it. A giant version of Yuya's pendant appeared between the two monsters, and swung sideways. "With these two monsters, I'm now allowed to Summon monsters that are Level 2 all the way to 7 at the same time!" Yuya informed his teacher as the giant version of his pendant started to swing in close to his Pendulum Monsters, drawing a circle behind them.

"Swing far, pendulum! Carve the arc of victory! My monsters are ready, to swing into action!" The Dueltainer called out as the giant pendant created a portal from the circle that it was drawing, before a single light shot out of it. "You're up Performapal Skullcrobat Joker!" Yuya called out as the single light cleared to reveal Performapal Skullcrobat Joker, who gave another humble bow.

Performapal Skullcrobat Joker ATK Points: 1800/ Level: 4.

Yuya then held up a single card with his right hand's index and middle fingers. "Now, allow me to introduce a new friend of mine. The Pendulum Tuner monster, Nobledragon Magician!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out as he flipped the card over to show that it was a Pendulum Monster with the image showing a young female Spellcaster. "I can Special Summon this card from my hand by reducing a Level 7 or higher Odd-Eyes' Level by 3. And I select my Odd-Eyes Dragon!" He explained his monster's effect, before placing the card on the remaining Monster Zone of his Duel Disk. A portal appeared besides him, before Nobledragon Magician appeared from within it.

Nobledragon Magician ATK Points: 700/ Level: 3.

Odd-Eyes Dragon Level: 7 - 3 = 4.

(Play Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Jaden is Resisting)

"Now Level 3 Nobledragon Magician, tune with Level 4 Odd-Eyes Dragon!" Yuya declared as Odd-Eyes Dragon took to the skies, while Nobledragon Magician transformed into 3 green rings that chased after the Dragon-Type monster. The three rings circled around the air-born dragon, scanning him with Odd-Eyes Dragon's body turning orange transparent. The dragon's body dispersed and was replaced by 4 bright stars that lined up in the rings, before a bright beam appeared and consumed them both. "I Synchro Summon! Level 7! Odd-Eyes Meteor Burst Dragon!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out as a fiery red dragon that looked incredibly similar to Odd-Eyes appeared. The new monster gave out a cry as it landed in between Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon and Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon.

Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 7.

"Time to brawl! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, attack Ascension Sky Dragon!" Yuya commanded his ace monster, making Odd-Eyes cry out as it leaped into the air, getting Yusei to look up at it. "At this moment, I activate Performapal Odd-Eyes Unicorn's Pendulum Effect!" The teenage boy called out, getting Yusei to shift his attention over to his student. "When an "Odd-Eyes" monster I control declares an attack, I can target that monster and it gains the ATK Points of a face-up Performapal Monster I control". The Odd-Eyes Duelist explained his monster's Pendulum Effect, getting Yusei to slightly widen his eyes.

"I only have 1 face-up Performapal Monster, so the choice is obvious. Skullcrobat Joker, lend your power to Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya called out as a purple aura appeared around Skullcrobat Joker, before it transferred over to the air-born Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, powering him up.

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon ATK Points: 2500 + 1800 = 4300.

"With that many ATK Points and its special ability, I won't survive this attack. I have something called "an insurance policy" right here!" Yusei called out as he held his right hand down towards his face-down card, which flipped itself up, revealing to be Synchro Barrier. "First, I have to sacrifice a Synchro Monster like Ascension Sky Dragon..." He began to explain as Ascension Sky Dragon shattered into white particles. "Then for the rest of the turn, I don't take any damage". The Synchro Duelist concluded as the white particles formed a barrier around Yusei.

Yuya snapped his right hand's fingers, before he pointed towards Catapult Warrior with his index finger. "Fine, I'll attack your other monster! Spiral Flame Strike!" He commanded his ace monster, which Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon cried out as he released its stream attack at Catapult Warrior, who stared up at the approaching attack without fear. The stream attack struck and destroyed the Synchro Monster, but the barrier around Yusei protected him from the shock waves. "I'll end my turn with a face-down card!" Yuya declared as he took a card and placed it into his Duel Disk, before face-down card appeared on the field.

(Music end)

Yusei Life Points: 1800/ Number of cards in hand: 3.

"I draw!" Yusei called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion by swiping his right hand out, before holding it in front of him to see what it was. He then held his right hand out towards the card form of his first Continuous Spell, keeping a hold of his card. "At this moment, another Signal counter is place on my Ready! Set! Duel!" Yusei reminded his opponent as his Spell card gleamed completely.

Ready! Set! Duel! counters: 1 + 1 = 2.

"Now I play it's final effect! I can remove 2 Signal counters from my field and send this card to the Graveyard; then draw 2 cards!" Yusei explained his Continuous Spell's final effect as its card form dispersed into yellow sparkles, before the Synchro Duelist drew 2 more cards from his deck. He looked at the two new editions, then he added them and the card that he drew earlier into his hand. "The only downside is that I have to discard a card to the Graveyard". He added as he sent a card, which was Drill Synchron, to the Graveyard zone of his Duel Disk.

Yusei looked at his hand of 5 cards, before he picked up one of them and held it out. "I play the Spell card, Spell Shattering Arrow!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, before he slotted the card into his Duel Disk with a larger version of the card appearing on the field. "What does that card do?" Yuya questioned in confusion as he's never seen his teacher use that card before. Yusei gave his student a small smirk, before holding his right hand out towards the back of his card. "This card destroys all Spell cards on your field and inflict 500 points of damage for each one". The Synchro Duelist explained his Spell card's effect, getting Yuya to raise an eyebrow.

"I hate to tell you this, but I don't have any Spell cards". The Odd-Eyes Duelist said in confusion, before a single arrow shot out of Spell Shattering Arrow's card, heading towards Performapal Monkeyboard and pierced through it, causing the Pendulum Monster to shatter. The arrow redirected itself and struck Odd-Eyes Unicorn from behind, destroying it as well. The shockwaves of the two monsters destructions hit Yuya head on and forced him take a step back.

Yuya Life Points: 1700 - 1000 = 700.

"What the!? Why were my Pendulum cards destroyed?" Yuya questioned in surprise, while Yusei just gave a smirk. "Just as I suspected, your Pendulum cards are also treated as Spell cards". Satellite's Shooting Star said with a confident voice, getting Yuya and Serenity to look at him in confusion. "What do you mean by that? How are my Pendulum cards treated as Spell cards?" Yuya questioned his teacher in confusion, wondering why he thought that. "I had my suspicions when I first saw saw your cards, and when the Sledgehammer destroyed them in your duel against him. I added Spell Shattering Arrow to my deck in order see if my suspicions were corrected, and looks like they were". The adult male explained to his student on what he meant, getting Yuya to widen his eyes in realization, before looking down at Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's card.

'I get it, that's why Pendulum cards have these appearances. They're like hybrids of monsters and Spells that can act as either one, meaning they have the same weakness as the two types'. The tomato haired boy said in his mind, learning another important detail of his Pendulum cards. "Anyway, with your Pendulum cards out of the way, I'm going for the attack! With this!" Yusei exclaimed as he picked one of his four cards and held it out. "I activate the Spell card, Necroid Synchro!" Satellite's Shooting Star exclaimed, before he slotted the card into his Duel Disk.

(Play Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's! Unleash Force)

Necroid Synchro's card appeared on the field besides Arrival of Light's card, before it began gleaming. "With this Spell, by banishing a Tuner and monsters from my Graveyard; I'm allowed to Synchro Summon now!" Satellite's Shooting Star explained his Spell card's effect, getting Yuya to widen his eyes in surprise. "But your monsters are in the Graveyard!" The teenage boy stated as Steam Synchron and Catapult Warrior's cards slotted out of Yusei's Graveyard Zone, before he picked them up and held them out for Yuya to see. "I banish the Level 5 Catapult Warrior and Level 3 Steam Synchron!" Yusei declared as he placed the two cards away in his jacket's pocket, before both Catapult Warrior and Steam Synchron appeared on the field.

Catapult Warrior flew into the air, while Steam Synchron transformed into 3 green rings that chased after the Synchro Monster. "Out of two will come one, and out of one will come great cosmic might!" Yusei chanted as the rings circled around Catapult Warrior and scanned him with the Synchro Monster turning orange transparent. Catapult Warrior's body then dispersed, revealing 5 bright lights that lined up within the rings, before a bright beam appeared and consumed them all. "Take flight, Stardust Dragon!" He exclaimed as his ace monster spun out of the bright beam, before spreading his wings out and released a powerful cry.

Stardust Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 8.

Yuya slightly gritted his teeth upon seeing his master's ace monster, having never been able to destroy it before in any of their practice duels. "The monster Summoned by Necroid Synchro's effect cannot use its effect, but that won't matter. Thanks to Arrival in Light's effect, I get to draw one more card". Yusei informed his opponent as he drew another card from his deck, while Stardust Dragon flew down above him, staring down at the four opponents in front of him. However, his gaze then focused on his own student, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, who gave an excited growl at facing his master.

'Let's see what your new powers amount to against me'. The Signer Dragon said to his student with a slightly excited voice, getting the Pendulum Monster to grin. 'This won't end the last time we've battled against each other, master'. The Pendulum Monster replied to his mentor, his voice leaking out the joy that he was experiencing at facing his master again. Yusei gave a small grin at seeing the exchange of the two monsters, before he looked down at his hand of 4 cards and picked up a single card. "I activate the Majestic Absorption Spell card!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out as the card began gleaming.

Stardust Dragon roared out as his body gained a glowing aura around itself, much like when he was in his Majestic Star Dragon form. "This card can only activate if I control a "Stardust Dragon", or a monster that lists my dragon in its text and target it. It has three effects that I can use. The first option is allowing my monster to equip one of yours to it. The second is allowing it to direct attack this turn and the last option is whenever it destroys a monster, you take damage equal to the destroyed monster's original ATK". Yusei explained his Spell card's effect to his opponent, getting Yuya to widen his eyes in surprise. "Oh, that's not good". The tomato hair styled boy stated as he knew that with the second and third option, he'll lose the duel.

"I think I'll go with the first option!" Yusei declared, before swiping his right hand out towards Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon and pointed towards it. "And I think I'll equip your Absolute Dragon to Stardust!" He declared his choice, before the Synchro Monster roared out as the glowing aura shot out towards Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon. Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon roared out, before it turned into blue sparkles that flew towards Stardust Dragon and was absorbed into the Synchro Monster. "With this, you won't be able to use your Xyz Monster's ability". The Synchro Duelist said with a small smirk, getting Yuya to narrow his eyes at him. 'He's right. If Absolute Dragon was Xyz Summoned and sent to the Graveyard, I would have been able to Summon a new "Odd-Eyes" monster from my Extra Deck. But with this, that effect won't work anymore'. The Odd-Eyes Duelist thought to himself, taking a moment to look down at his Extra Deck.

"Stardust, ice that Skullcrobat Joker with Cosmic Flare!" Yusei commanded, pointing his right hand's index finger towards Performapal Skullcrobat Joker. Stardust Dragon roared out as he began gathering cosmic energy in his mouth for his signature attack. Yuya slightly gritted his teeth, before he thrust his right hand out towards his face-down card. "I activate the Quick-Play Spell card, Mystik Wok!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out as his face-down card flipped itself up, before Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon dispersed into red sparkles. "By releasing my Meteorburst Dragon, its ATK Points increases my Life Points". He explained his Spell card's effect as the sparkles rained down on him, increasing his Life Points.

Yuya Life Points: 700 + 2500 = 3200.

Stardust Dragon unleashed his Cosmic Flare attack at Skullcrobat Joker, landing a direct hit and causing an explosion. The shockwaves of the attack pushed Yuya back a bit, but he remained standing. (2500 - 1800 = 700)

Yuya Life Points: 3200 - 700 = 2500.

"Not bad. I'll set a face-down card and end my turn". Yusei declared his turn over as he slotted a card into his Duel Disk, before a face-down card appeared on his field.

(Music end)

Yuya Life Points: 2500/ Number of cards in hand: 1.

"I draw!" Yuya called out, drawing his card, before holding it in front of himself. The Odd-Eyes Duelist gave a grin, before holding his right hand out, keeping a hold of his card with his thumb, index and middle fingers. "I release my Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon...!" Yuya began as a red circle appeared underneath Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, before a red pillar erupted from within it and covered the Pendulum Monster from view. "...To Advance Summon Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon!" He finished as the red pillar dispersed to reveal the evolved form of Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon. The Dragon-Type monster let out a loud howl upon being Summoned.

Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon ATK Points: 3000/ Level: 8.

"Remember his special ability? When this card is Summoned by releasing a Level 5 or higher monster, Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon can destroy one of your monsters and inflict you damage to its ATK Points! And with Stardust Dragon's effect negated, nothing will be able to save him from this!" Yuya called out as Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon began gathering energy in its mouth, before unleashing a blackish red beam at Stardust Dragon. "Nothing except this! The Trap, Synchro Barrier Force!" Yusei called out as he brought up his right fist, before swiping it out to the side as his face-down card flipped itself up.

"When an effect that would destroy is activated, this Trap negates that effect!" Satelite's Shooting Star explained his Trap's effect as a white barrier appeared around Stardust Dragon and deflected the blackish red beam. "Then, you take 500 points of damage for every Synchro Monster I control!" Yusei finished as the white barrier formed into a white beam that shot out and struck Yuya, making him take a step back from the surprise attack.

Yuya Life Points: 2500 - 500 = 2000.

Yuya gave a small chuckle, before he pointed towards Stardust Dragon with his left hand's index finger, while holding his single card with his middle finger and thumb. "That may have saved Stardust from Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon's effect, but not the attack!" Yuya exclaimed as his dragon unleashed another blackish red beam at Stardust Dragon, this time landing a direct hit and causing an explosion. (3000 - 2500 = 500)

Yusei Life Points: 1800 - 500 = 1300.

"I'm on a roll today! Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon's special ability now activates! When this card destroys a monster in battle, I can special Summon a Level 5 or higher monster from my hand or Graveyard! And I choose Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon!" Yuya declared his choice as a pillar of fire appeared besides Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon, before it cleared to reveal the Synchro Monster crouched down in a defensive stance.

Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon DEF Points: 2000/ Level: 7.

"That'll do for this turn. You're up". Yuya declared his turn over, having no other move to make.

Yusei Life Points: 1300/ Number of cards in hand: 2.

"I draw!" Yusei called out as he drew his card by placing his right hand on the top card of his deck, then swiping it out to the side. Yusei brought the card in front of himself to see what it was, before he grew a smile. "Just what I needed". He whispered to himself as he added the card to his hand, before picking up another one. "I Summon Sangan in ATK Mode!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out as he threw the card onto his Duel Disk's blade. A flash of light appeared on the field, before it cleared to reveal Sangan, who gave a little laugh.

Sangan ATK Points: 1000/ Level: 3.

"But he won't be sticking around for long. I activate Stardust Synchron's ability from the Graveyard!" Yusei called out as a golden light erupted out of his Duel Disk's Graveyard zone. "If this card is in my hand or Graveyard, I can release one monster I control and Special Summon this card! I release Sangan!" He explained his monster's effect as Sangan dispersed into white sparkles, before they came together and reformed into Stardust Synchron.

Stardust Synchron ATK Points: 1500/ Level: 4.

"The downside is that when it leaves the field, it is banished. But we'll worry about it later, I activate 3 special abilities!" Yusei declared, getting Yuya to widen his eyes in shock. "Three special abilities!?" The teenage boy exclaimed in surprise, which Yusei nodded to his student. He then picked up a single card from his hand and looked at it, before his face fell as he stared at it. It was a Monster card called Stardust Trail, but its appearance was what really made his heart swelled and swoon.

Stardust Trail looked like an exact copy of Akiza.

There was only a few differences as this monster had white wings, longer hair than the female Signer, horns and a red dragon-like tail with a metal end that were all based off of Stardust Dragon, even her clothes and chest plate were based off of the Synchro Dragon. It was truly a beautiful card that reminded Yusei greatly of the woman he loved back home in his world. His mind thought back to when he first saw this card.

(Flashback)

Yusei was sitting down on a bench in Paradise City park, wearing his normal outfit, searching through his deck. Earlier, he was passing by on his way to Yuya's house to check in on his student, but had decided to take a small break at the park and take a quick look at his deck. He held up one side of his deck with his left hand and was searching through it with his right hand. His deck was looking great with the new editions in it, but there was still room for improvement. He moved on to the next card in his deck, before he stopped dead in his tracks upon what he saw.

The top card of the right side of his deck was a monster called Stardust Trail, and it looked like Akiza. Yusei had wide eyes of shock as he stared down at the card's image, almost in disbelief that she looked like an exact copy of the woman he loved. "But... how is this possible?" The bearer of the Crimson Dragon's head questioned in disbelief, wondering how this card looked like his fellow Signer. Just then, his mark suddenly started glowing brightly, getting Yusei to look down at it in surprise. He opened his mouth to speak, only for the mark to release a bright light that forced Yusei to shut his eyes.

After a moment, Yusei was able to open his eyes, only to widen them to see that he was back in the white void-like world with the Crimson Dragon flying in front of him and was looking directly at him. "You again!" Satellite's Shooting Star exclaimed in surprise, getting the embodiment off the Dragon Star to nod towards him. "Pardon for the sudden interruption, but I thought you'd like the answers concerning your deck's newest addition". The Crimson Dragon said to the Signer, getting Yusei to raise an eyebrow, before he looked down at his hands and saw that he was still holding his cards. "You mean this card?" Yusei questioned with wide eyes directed at Stardust Trail's card, which the Crimson Dragon gave a short nod towards him.

"That is right. As you have already noticed, she bares a great resemblance to your love interest, Akiza". The dragon said to the young adult, getting Yusei to widen his eyes in shock, before he looked up at the Crimson Dragon. "You knew!?" Yusei exclaimed in shock, getting the embodiment of the Dragon Star to let out an amused chuckle. "Of course I know. The marks I gave you all also allowed me to feel your emotions. Akiza's emotions for you are without equal, and the same could be said for your feelings for her. Besides, it doesn't take powers to see that you two wish to court one another". The Crimson Dragon said, before throwing his head back and let out a laughing fit, much to Yusei's embarrassment as he gritted his teeth.

The Crimson Dragon soon stopped his laughing and looked towards his Signer with a serious expression. "I created Stardust Trail to remind you of your love whenever you use, or look at her. I know that you miss your friends and fellow Signers back in your world, so I did something that would always remind you of them whenever times are tough. I am sorry if this offended you anyway". The Crimson Dragon explained to his Signer as he grew a hint of guilt on his face. Yusei felt a bit touched after hearing the Crimson Dragon's words, before he looked down at Stardust Trail's card. He grew a soft smile on his face as his thought about Akiza and his friends back home.

He looked up at the embodiment of the Dragon Star and gave him a thankful look. "Thanks. I really appreciate it". Yusei thanked the Crimson Dragon, getting the embodiment of the Dragon Star to grow a brighter expression as the hints of guilt were gone. "You are welcome, Yusei. I also think it would be best if you met her yourself". The Crimson Dragon replied to his Signer, getting him confused at what he said. Just then, a bright flash appeared in front of Yusei, getting him to shield his eyes with his left forearm.

The light soon died down, allowing Yusei to lower his left arm, only to widen his eyes upon seeing Stardust Trail flying right in front of him. She had her hands folded in front of lap, her tail was waving around down and her eyes were closed in a peaceful manner. She slowly opened her eyes, revealing them to even be exact copies of Akiza's eyes, and looked at Yusei, before she grew a soft smile at her duelist. "It is an honour to finally meet you, Yusei Fudo". Stardust Trail greeted her duelist with even her own voice sounding exactly like Akiza's, much to Yusei's amazement. He gave a small smile to the Dragon-Type monster. "The honour is all mine". Satellite's Shooting Star replied to the female monster, getting her to softly giggle a little.

"I hope that you will count on me in the near future in the battle against Duel Academy and Leo Akaba". The Dragon-Type monster said to her duelist with a hopefully tone, hoping to be a helpful to Yusei as much as possible. Yusei could hear how hopeful she was from listening to her voice, getting him to look forward to when he could use her. "I will be counting on you. Just do your best to help out and that'll mean a lot to me". Satellite's Shooting Star told the female monster, getting her to smile, before she closed her eyes and then gave a humble bow.

Her body began to sparkle, before it completely gleamed and forced Yusei to cover his eyes again for a moment, before it died down to show that Stardust Trail was gone. Yusei stared at where the female monster was a few moments ago, before he looked down at her card. Once again, he was reminded of his friends back home, getting him to smile lightly. 'Everyone... I... I'll come home someday'. Satellite's Shooting Star thought to himself, swearing to return to his home one day. "Yusei, I'd like to discuss another matter with you before you go". The Crimson Dragon said to his Signer, getting Yusei's attention as he looked up at the flaming dragon in front of him.

"What is it?" The Synchro Duelist questioned the embodiment of the Dragon Star, wondering what it wanted to talk about. "You must have noticed by now that you're the only one with a Duel Runner in the Standard Dimension, meaning you cannot participate in a Turbo Duel, which also means you won't be able to use that Clear Mind technique of yours". The Crimson Dragon said to the young adult, getting Yusei to lightly grit his teeth as he knew that he was right. In fact, he doubted he'll be in a Turbo Duel again until either Rin's Duel Runner is complete, or someone from the Synchro Dimension with their own Duel Runner appears in the Standard Dimension.

"That is why I have made some necessary preparations in order to make up for the lost of your Clear Mind. Look at the next card past Stardust Trail". The flaming dragon told Yusei, getting him to raise an eyebrow, but did what he was told and moved onto the next card. What he saw made Yusei widened his eyes upon seeing a familiar card that he couldn't have under normal conditions. "T-This is..." He whispered in shock at seeing the card, something that the Crimson Dragon gave a nod to. "Indeed it is. I was able to allow that card take a permeant form and added it to your deck when I gave you your new cards. You're free to use that card whenever you wish now, but I suggest not using it in every duel". The Crimson Dragon explained to his Signer, getting Yusei to look up at him. "But I..." He began, only to be cut off by the Crimson Dragon.

"Do not worry. It is alright. But still, you might want to look into a way of using your Clear Mind technique outside of a Turbo Duel. There is no telling what will happen". The embodiment of the Dragon Star told the Synchro Duelist, getting Yusei to look down in thought and could see that the Crimson Dragon was right. Clear Mind was his most powerful move, allowing him to use Shooting Star Dragon, but without it, his options are limited in a duel. It honestly sounded a bit pathetic that he couldn't play his best card without being in a Turbo Duel, but that was the truth of it. He needed to find a way to use Clear Mind without being in a Turbo Duel, cause without it and if he's in a situation that required it, he'd have no chance.

He looked up at the Crimson Dragon with his eyes narrowed dangerously and nodded to him. "You're right. I need to find a way to use what Bruno taught me outside of a Turbo Duel, but it won't be easy finding a way". Yusei stated, making the Crimson Dragon nod in agreement. "Indeed it won't. But knowing you, you'll find a way how to do it". The embodiment of the Dragon Star said, before his whole body let out a bright flash that made Yusei shut his eyes.

When the flash died down, Yusei opened his eyes and saw that he was back in Paradise City Park, sitting down on the same bench from before. The young adult looked down at his hands and saw that he was still holding his cards with both of them. He stared down at the cards for a moment, before he started going through his cards, looking for one specific card. After a few seconds, he found it, his Shooting Star Dragon. Yusei stared down at his Accel Synchro Monster for a few moments, and then he tilted his head down in thought. 'Bruno, I'll find a way to use what you taught outside of a Turbo Duel somehow. I promise I won't let yours, Aporia and Z-one's sacrifices go to waste'. Yusei thought to himself in determination, thinking about his friend and two former enemies that died to create a new future for their world.

(Flashback end)

'Bruno, Aporia, Z-one, I swear that I won't let your deaths be in vein. I will change our future when I'm done dealing with Leo Akaba and Z-arc'. Yusei thought to himself with narrowed eyes full of determination, before he held Stardust Trail's card out. "When a monster I control is Tributed; I can Special Summon Stardust Trail from my hand or Graveyard!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out as he placed the card in side-ways positions on his Duel Disk's blade. A sparkle of stardust appeared on his field, before it cleared to reveal Stardust Trail. She had her eyes closed peacefully and her open hands held out to the sides. She fell down to the ground and knelt down, before she took a defensive stance.

Stardust Trail DEF Points: 2000/ Level: 4.

Stardust Trail turned her head left to look at Yusei with her closed eyes, before she nodded to him, and then faced forward. "Now Sangan's effect! When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard, I can add a monster with 1500 or less ATK Points from my deck to my hand". Yusei explained his previous monster's effect as he took his deck out of the deck zone and began searching through it. Yusei found the card he wanted and held it up with his right hand, before he flipped it over to show that it was the Tuner Monster, Majestic Dragon.

"I select Majestic Dragon, who has an ATK of 0". Satellite's Shooting Star declared his choice, before he added the card to his hand, then started shuffling the deck. "And last, but not least, Stardust Synchron's special ability! When this card is Summoned, I can add Spell/Trap card that lists "Stardust Dragon" in its text". Yusei explained his Tuner Monster's effect as he searched through his deck once more, before he found the card he wanted. He held the card up and showed it to Yuya, revealing it to be Shooting Star. "I select the Shooting Star Trap card". Yusei revealed, before adding the card to his hand and reshuffled his deck, then returned it to the deck zone.

The young adult male looked at his three remaining cards, before he picked the card that he drew at the beginning of his turn, and held it out. "I play the magic of the Spell card, Shining Rebirth!" Yusei called out, holding the card with his right hand's thumb, index and middle fingers, before Shining Rebirth's card started glowing. "This Spell lets me select a Synchro Monster in my Graveyard, then Synchro Summon it using monsters on my field". He explained his Spell card's effect, getting Yuya to raise an eyebrow, before he sighed. 'At this point, I shouldn't be surprised anymore'. The tomato haired boy thought to himself with a shrug, before he refocused on his teacher.

"Level 4 Stardust Synchron tunes with Level 4 Stardust Trail!" Yusei declared as he swiped his right hand into the air as Stardust Trail flew into the air, while Stardust Synchron cried out with his whole body started shining like a star, before he transformed into 4 green rings that flew into the air in a straight line. "Out of two will come one, and out of one will come great cosmic might!" He chanted as the green lines circled around Stardust Trail, scanning her with the Dragon-Type monster's body turning orange transparent. Her body then dispersed, leaving 4 bright stars that lined up within the rings, before a bright beam appeared and consumed them all. "Take flight, Stardust Dragon!" Satellite's Shooting Star cried out to the heavens as Stardust Dragon flew out of the beam and into the air, letting out a fierce cry.

Stardust Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 8.

Stardust Dragon flew down from the air and stopped besides Yusei, staring at Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon dead in the eye, who returned the favor. "Great to have you back old friend, now it's time to get some payback! But before that, there's a few things to take care of. First, both Stardust Trail and Synchron are removed from play". Yusei said as he held up the two cards with his right hand, before placing them away in his jacket's pockets. "However, Stardust Trail leaves a parting gift. When she's used as Synchro Material for a "Warrior", "Synchron" or "Stardust" Synchro Monster, I get a Stardust Token!" He added as a small baby-like Stardust Dragon appeared on his field.

Stardust Token DEF Points: 0/ Level: 1.

"So cute!" Serenity squealed out, getting both Yusei and Yuya to sweat drop, before they refocused on the duel. "Arrival of Light's effect activates as well. Now I draw a card". The Synchro Duelist reminded his opponent as he drew another card from his deck, before holding it in front of himself. He lightly widened his eyes in surprise, then proceeded to narrow them. He held the card with his right hand's pinky and ring finger, while he grabbed another card with his index and middle fingers. "I'll set two face-downs..." He began as he slotted the two cards into his Duel Disk, causing two face-down cards to appear on his field.

"Then Stardust Dragon, attack Meterorburst Dragon with Cosmic Flare!" Yusei commanded as he pointed towards Meteorburst Dragon. Stardust Dragon cried out as he unleashed his Cosmic Flare attack at Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon, destroying the Synchro Monster. "That's all for this turn. You're up". The Synchro Duelist declared his turn over, having no other move to make.

(Music end)

Yuya Life Points: 2000/ Number of cards in hand: 1.

"Alright, my move!" Yuya called out as he drew his card and swiped his right hand out to the side. "Before that, check this out!" Yusei exclaimed, thrusting his open right hand out as one of his face-down cards flipped itself up, revealing to be Shooting Star. "If I control a "Stardust Dragon", Shooting Star destroys a card that you control. Let's see how you do without your Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon!" Yusei called out as he pointed towards Advance Dragon with his index finger. Shooting Star's card fired a white beam at Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon and landed a direct hit, causing the Dragon-Type monster to shatter into sparkles.

Yuya slightly gritted his teeth, before he held his card in front of himself to see what it was. What he saw made him grow a massive smile, before he held up the card. "Time to swing into action! I Summon the Pendulum Tuner Monster, Star-Eyes Synchron!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist called out as he swiped the card onto his Duel Disk's blade. A burst of white light appeared in the middle of the field, before it cleared to reveal Yuya's Pendulum Tuner Monster, Star-Eyes Synchron, who let out a loud cry.

Star-Eyes Synchron ATK Points: 500/ Level: 1.

"Oh boy. This is not a good sigh". Yusei remarked with slightly wide eyes, having a good feeling what his student was planning. "You bet it isn't! I activate Star-Eyes Synchron's special ability!" Yuya called out, turning to look at Star-Eyes Synchron as white cosmic energy appeared in its mouth, before the dragon breathed out a cosmic breath attack into the sky. The cosmic breath attack created a pure white portal in the sky, getting Yusei to look up at it in curiosity. "When he's Normal or Special Summoned, I'm allowed to Special Summon 1 face-up "Odd-Eyes" Monster in my Extra Deck". The teenage boy explained his monster's effect, before his Extra Deck opened and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's card slotted out of it.

Yuya picked up his ace monster's card with his right hand's index and middle fingers. "And the monster I'm bringing back is Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya called out as he swiped the onto the blade shaped blade. A familiar cry came out of the cosmic portal, before Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon fell down from it and landed on the ground besides Yuya and Star-Eyes Synchron.

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 7.

Yusei gave a smile at seeing the two monsters, before he looked down at his student. "I must admit, I'm excited to face your new monster". Satellite's Shooting Star confessed, getting the tomato hair style boy's grin to grow even bigger than before. "Glad to hear that, but you're not gonna be happy when you lose to it. Level 1 Star-Eyes Synchron gives Level 7 Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon a tune up!" Yuya declared, thrusting his right fist into the air as Star-Eyes Synchron cried out, before bursting into cosmic energy. The cosmic energy was absorbed into Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, causing his whole body to be covered in energy with only his eyes visible, only they started shining like a star. The cosmic energy covered dragon unleashed a powerful roar as it began transforming with the cosmic energy still covering his form.

"Wondrous and beautiful dragon with dichromatic eyes! With the power given to you by the dragon of stardust, transform into a new dragons with eyes that shine a new future! I Synchro Summon! Star-Eyes Savior Dragon!" Yuya chanted as the cosmic energy covering the dragon unlashed a bright light that forced Yusei and Serenity to slightly cover their eyes from the strong light. After a moment, the bright light died down, allowing them both to lower their right forearms to see Star-Eyes Savior Dragon in the air. The Synchro Pendulum monster's shinning eyes flashed a bit, before he spun around in the air and curled its claws, legs, wings and tail around itself. The Dragon-Type monster spread his claws, legs, wings and tail out, unleashing an earth shattering roar with white glittering stars surrounding him.

Star-Eyes Savior Dragon ATK Points: 3000/ Level: 8.

Yusei tilted his head up to look at the air-born dragon, while Stardust Dragon grew a small grin at seeing his student's new form. They saw the dragon's new form earlier that day, but now, seeing it up close and facing it, the two partners could see that it was a beautiful creature. "I've seen a lot of monsters, but I have to admit that this one holds a candle that none of them do". Yusei told his student, tilting his head back down to look at Yuya.

The Signer's words lifted the teenage boy's spirit greatly. "I'm flattered to hear that, but don't think that'll save ya from Star-Eyes' wrath. I activate my dragon's special ability!" The teenage boy called out with a confident voice. Star-Eyes gave out a roar, before he flew higher into the air. "Go, Stardust Resurrection!" Yuya called out as Star-Eyes spread his wings out fully, before they began gleaming beautiful silver white energy that rained down on the field below.

"Once a turn, Star-Eyes Savior Dragon can Special Summon a monster back from my Graveyard, or a face-up Monster in my Extra Deck back to the field! So, come on back, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Yuya explained his monster's special ability, watching Star-Eyes Savior Dragon as Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon appeared out of his wings and fell down to the ground.

Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon DEF Points: 2000/ Level: 7.

"And now the best part! Star-Eyes Savior Dragon gains ATK Points equal to the Special Summoned monster! Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon has 2500 ATK Points, so that'll increase Star-Eyes Savior Dragon's ATK Points all the way to 5500!" Yuya further explained his new monster's special ability as red flames appeared around Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, before they transferred over to Star-Eyes Savior. The red flames changed to silvery white flames as they covered the Synchro Pendulum Monster, causing its eyes to flash as its ATK Points went up.

Star-Eyes Savior Dragon ATK Points: 3000 + 2500 = 5500.

"With this attack, I'll finally win against you". Yuya said with an excited voice at the thought of finally defeating his mentor. Yusei gave a small smile at hearing Yuya's excited tone, but he wasn't ready to lose to him just yet. "As much as I hate to rain on your parade, I'm gonna have to do it. I play the Trap card, Synchro Back!" Yusei called out as his last face-down card flipped itself over. "Listen up. First, I select a Synchro Monster I control..." The young adult began to explain as he held up Stardust Dragon's card with his right hand's thumb, index and middle fingers. "...Then I return it to the Extra Deck and Special Summon it on my Standby Phase". Yusei finished as he placed his ace monster's card away in his Extra Deck.

Stardust Dragon's body flashed bright white, before he disappeared completely from view. Yuya gave a light chuckle, not the least bit surprised by this. "Of all the people I know, you're pretty much the only person I know that would find a way around Savior Dragon's effect". Yuya said with a natural voice, before thrusting his right hand out. "Guess I'll just have to go with option 2! Star-Eyes, attack the Stardust Token!" Yuya commanded, getting Star-Eyes Savior Dragon to let out a fierce cry as the three gems all over its body began flashing their respective colours.

Star-Eyes Pendulum Dragon opened his mouth, revealing black cosmic energy inside his mouth. "Go! Spiral Cosmic Flare!" Yuya cried out as Star-Eyes Savior Dragon unleashed a black flare attack like Stardust's Cosmic Flare attack, only it had white sparkles around it, at the Stardust Token. The flare attack created an explosion upon impact, making Yusei to cover his eyes with his right forearm. The smoke of the explosion cleared away quickly, allowing the Signer to lower his right arm and look towards his student. "I'll end my turn here, and at this moment, Savior Dragon's ATK Points return to normal". The Odd-Eyes Duelist declared his turn over as the silvery white flames around Star-Eyes died down.

Star-Eyes Savior Dragon ATK Points: 5500 - 2500 = 3000.

Yusei Life Points: 1300/ Number of cards in hand: 1.

"I draw!" Yusei called out as he placed his right hand on his deck, before drawing his card by swiping his hand out to the side. "At this moment, Synchro Back's effect activates! Since it's my Standby Phase, Stardust Dragon now returns!" The young adult called out, before a bright portal appeared behind him. Stardust Dragon flew out of the portal and into the air, before releasing a fierce cry with glittering stars falling from his body.

Stardust Dragon ATK Points: 2500/ Level: 8.

"Due to Arrival in Light's effect, I draw another card!" Yusei reminded his apprentice, drawing another card from his deck, before he held the two new cards up to see what they were. He raised an eyebrow upon seeing that they were the Tuning Spell card and Synchron Carrier, but decided that they won't be needed. He added the two cards to his hand, before swiping his right hand out. "I activate Stardust Phoenix's ability from the Graveyard. If I control "Stardust Dragon", I can Special Summon him back from the Graveyard!" He explained as a portal appeared on the ground, before Stardust Phoenix flew out of it and into the air.

Stardust Phoenix ATK Points: 100/ Level: 1.

Yusei then picked up Majestic Dragon's card with his right hand and held it to stare at the card's image. He stared down at the dragon's image for a moment, before swiping his right hand out to the side. 'This for you guys, and everyone back home'. Yusei said in his mind, thinking about his teammates in Team 5D's and all his friends back home. "I Summon the Tuner monster, Majestic Dragon!" Satellite's Shooting Star exclaimed as he placed the card down on his Duel Disk's blade.

(Play Yu-Gi-oh! 5D's! Yusei's theme)

A bright rainbow flash appeared, which covered Majestic Dragon from view as it flew into the air. Majestic Dragon then spread its wings out, causing the rainbow flash to disperse completely.

Majestic Dragon ATK Points: 0/ Level: 1.

"Level 1 Majestic Dragon Tunes with Level 1 Stardust Phoenix and Level 8 Stardust Dragon!" Yusei called out to the heavens as Stardust Dragon flew into the air, followed closely by Stardust Phoenix. Majestic Dragon spun around in the air with its wings tucked in, before suddenly stop spinning with its wings spread out, releasing a pink wave of energy. Majestic Dragon's body started wavering, before turning transparent and became much larger with a single star inside of its body. Stardust Dragon roared out as he and Stardust Phoenix were absorbed into Majestic Dragon's body.

Yuya watched with wide eyes of disbelief, which was mirrored by Serenity as they had never witnessed a Synchro Summon like this before. "Well, here's something you don't see every day". The Odd-Eyes Duelist remarked as even Star-Eyes Savior Dragon and Odd-Eyes Pendulum watched in stunned silence. "When the stars shine as one, they point towards a miracle! Let's rev it up!" Yusei chanted his new chant for his second strongest monster, second only to his Shooting Star Dragon. Inside of Majestic Dragon's body, Stardust Dragon's body was orange transparent with eight stars lined up within his body, surrounded by a single green ring. Stardust Phoenix flew past a single green ring, causing his body to turn orange transparent, before disappearing, leaving a single star.

9 stars lined up within Majestic Dragon's body, forming a straight line, before a small beam appeared through the stars, then transformed into a massive light that consumed them and Majestic Dragon. "Synchro Summon! Come forth, Majestic Star Dragon!" Yusei cried out to the heavens as his second strongest monster, Majestic Star Dragon emerged from the beam, bathed in a bright light. Majestic Star Dragon spread his wings and flew out of the beam, before crying out.

Majestic Star Dragon ATK Points: 3800/ Level: 10.

Yuya, Serenity, Star-Eyes Savior Dragon and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon all stared up at the Majestic Star Dragon as it flew above them, bathing them with its majestic light. Yusei looked up at his Synchro Monster and smiled, having missed this form of Stardust Dragon as it saved him plenty of times before in the past.
