Chereads / Yu-gi-oh 5D's-V / Chapter 24 - chapter 24

Chapter 24 - chapter 24

Yuya Life Points: 2700 – 250 = 2450.

"Fine, so you survived one attack, but I still got two left. Black Luster Soldier, attack Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!" Sylvio commanded, thrusting his right fist out. Black Luster Soldier brought up its blade, before charging towards Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, while Super Soldier returned to its Duelist's side. Yuya leaped off of Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon's head and into the air, right before Black Luster Soldier came in and sliced the Dragon-Type's stomach, causing Odd-Eyes to cry out as it exploded. (3000 – 2500 = 500)

Yuya Life Points: 2450 – 500 = 1950.

Yuya landed on the ground safely on his right knee, before he held up his ace monster's card with his right hand. "Since Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon is a Pendulum Monster, he goes to the Extra Deck instead of the Graveyard!" The Odd-Eyes Duelist reminded his opponent, before putting his ace monster's card away in his Extra Deck.

"So what?! He can't help you from there! Lord Gaia, attack that samurai wannabe!" Sylvio called out, pointing towards Performapal Handsamuraiger. Lord Gaia summed his lancers, before throwing the right one towards Handsamuraiger and pierced right through its stomach, causing the Beast-Warrior monster to cry out before shattering. (2300 – 1800 = 500)

Yuya Life Points: 1950 – 500 = 1450.

"Finally, your Pendulum cards will be mine! Evolzar Laggia, attack Yuya Sakaki directly!" The Leo student commanded, pointing his right hand towards the Dueltainer as Yuya stood up on his feet fully. "Not today! I activate Lyrilusc – Violet Swift's special ability from my hand!" Lulu declared, holding up Violet Swift's card with her right hand's index and middle fingers, before placing it on the blade of the Duel Disk.

A blur appeared, moving at fast speeds before stopping in front of Yuya, revealing it to be Lyrilusc – Violet Swift. "When you declare a direct attack, I can Special Summon Violet Swift and end the Battle Phase!" The purple haired female explained Violet Swift's special ability, much to Sylvio's annoyance.

Lyrilusc – Violet Swift DEF: 0/ Level: 1.

"You're really becoming an annoying bird, you know that? First; since you Special Summoned a monster; Lord Gaia's special ability activates and gains 700 ATK Points!" The brown-haired male explained his monster's effect as a brown aura appeared around Lord Gaia, powering it up.

Lord Gaia the Fierce Knight ATK: 2300 + 700 = 3000.

"Next, I activate the second inherited effect of Beginning Knight to banish your bird!" Sylvio called out, holding up his right fist as Violet Swift flashed a violet colour, before disappearing completely. This caused Lulu to slight narrow her eyes as she took Violet Swift's card and put it away in her jacket's pocket. "You may have survived this turn, but it won't happen again! I end my turn!" The male L.I.D student declared his turn over, while his three monsters gathered in front of him.

Lord Gaia the Fierce Knight ATK: 3000 – 700 = 2300.

Lulu Life Points: 3800/ Number of cards in hand: 5.

Lulu closed her eyes and gave out a small sigh. 'This Duel has been intense so far, and it is only my third turn so far. Something tells me that this won't be my last turn of this duel'. The Mistress of Birds thought to herself, before looking up at the sky above. 'I wonder what Yusei is up to right now. Is he still at You Show right now?' Lulu questioned inside of her mind, wondering what Satellite's Shooting Star was doing right now.

(Meanwhile when this duel was taking place)

Inside of the warehouse at the harbor; Yusei and Zuzu stood across each other by 10 feet. The two of them held their starting hand with their left hand, while the Duel Disks were equipped to the forearms of the two duelists. The two had narrowed, focused eyes locked on each other as they began the duel against one another.

Yusei Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.

Zuzu Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.

"The first move is mine, Yusei!" Zuzu declared, taking the beginning turn as she picked up a single card from the five in her left hand and held it out. "I'll start off with a Spell card called Cards from the Sky!" The pink haired girl called out, before slotting the card into her Duel Disk. A large copy of the card appeared besides her, before it began glowing. "By removing a LIGHT attribute Fairy-Type monster from my hand such as Elegy the Melodious Diva…" Zuzu began to explain, taking a card from her hand to show it, before pocketing it in her jacket's pocket.

"This allows me to draw 2 cards from my deck". She finished explaining, drawing the top two cards of her deck. "However, I can't attack or Special Summon on the turn that I activate this effect". Zuzu added, before she looked at her two new cards in hand. She added one of them to the hand, before holding the other one out with her right hand's index and middle fingers. "I now Normal Summon Opera the Melodious Diva in ATK Mode!" The pink haired girl called out, before swiping the card onto her Duel Disk's blade. With a flash of light, Opera the Melodious Diva appeared with an innocent look.

Opera the Melodious Diva ATK: 2300/ Level: 4.

Yusei narrowed his eyes at the Fairy-Type monster, especially at its unusually high ATK for a Level 4 monster. "Opera can't attack on the turn that it is Normal or Special Summon". Zuzu informed her opponent, causing Yusei to ease his gaze a bit. "But that hardly matters since I can't battle this turn. But I still got a few tricks up my sleeve". The pink haired girl added, picking up a card from her hand of 4 cards and held it up.

It was a Spell card with the image showing an opera stage inside of a large room with a curtain made of light. "I activate the Field Spell; Stage of Light!" Zuzu exclaimed, before slotting the card into her Duel Disk.

(Stage of Light/ Type: Field Spell/ Effect: For every "Melodious" monster on your side of the field; all face-up LIGHT attribute monsters on your side of the field gains 200 ATK. Once per turn if you control a "Melodious" monster; you can Special Summon one LIGHT Monster from your GY.)

The large copy of the Spell materialized in front of Zuzu, before it began glowing. The whole warehouse began to glow as the Field Spell affected the area around the two Duelists. After a moment or two, the warehouse had transformed. Yusei and Zuzu were now standing across from each other on an opera stage inside of a large building. Satellite's Shooting Star looked around the field around them, while the Standard fragment of Ray gave a grin. "This Spell increases the ATK of all LIGHT attribute monsters by 200 for every Melodious Monster on my field!" Zuzu explained her Field Spell's effect as Opera powered up a little.

Opera the Melodious Diva ATK: 2300 + 200 = 2500.

"I'll set a card face-down and end my turn!" Zuzu declared, slotting in another card into her Duel Disk with a face-down card appearing in front of her.

Yusei Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.

"My turn now! I draw!" Yusei called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion with his right hand, before holding it in front of himself to see what it was. Immediately, Yusei held the card out to show that it was the Spell card; Tuning. "I'll start off by activating the Turning Spell card!" Satellite's Shooting Star exclaimed as he slotted the card in his Duel Disk, before a larger copy of it appeared in front of him and began glowing.

"This Spell allows me to add a Tuner monster from the deck to my hand, but I then have to discard the top cards equal to the Tuner monster's Level". Yusei explained Tuning's effect as his deck shuffled for a moment. It then stopped with a single card slotted out, which he picked up with his right hand's index and middle fingers, before holding it out to reveal that it was the Tuner Monster; Tuning Gum. "Tuning Gum is Level 1, so that's one card!" The Synchro Duelist informed his opponent, before adding the card to his hand.

He then took the top card of his deck, taking a moment to see that it was Quillbolt Hedgehog, before sending it to the Graveyard. He then took another card from his hand and held it up."Next up, I'm activating the special ability of Junk Converter from my hand!" Yusei declared, holding the card out with his right hand as it began to glow. "By discarding this card and a Tuner Monster from my hand like Tuning Gum…" Satellite's Shooting Star began to explain as he discarded both Junk Converter and Tuning Gum from his hand. "I can add a "Synchron" monster from my deck to the hand!" He concluded as his deck shuffled once more, before stopping with a single card slotted out.

Yusei picked the card up and held it up for Zuzu to see that it was Junk Synchron. "I select Junk Synchron! And while I'm at it, I think I'll play him! Ha!" Satellite's Shooting Star cried out, swiping the card onto the Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared in front of him, before a burst of energy came out and cleared, revealing Junk Synchron.

Junk Synchron ATK: 1300/ Level: 3.

"Junk Synchron's special ability now activates! When this card is Summoned; I can Special Summon a Level 2 or below monster from my Graveyard!" Yusei explained his favorite Tuner monster's effect as Junk Converter's card slotted out of his Graveyard Zone, before he picked and held it up. "So, say "hello" again to Junk Converter!" He added, before swiping the card down on the blade. Junk Synchro held out his left hand as a portal appeared and out came Junk Converter, taking a defensive stance.

Junk Converter DEF: 200/ Level: 2.

"Now since I control a Tuner monster on the field; I can Special Summon Quillbolt Hedgehog from the Graveyard!" Yusei called out, holding his right hand out as another portal appeared and Quillbolt Hedgehog came out with its devilish grin.

Quillbolt Hedgehog DEF: 800/ Level: 2.

"However; when Quillbolt Hedgehog leaves the field, it is banished". The Synchro Duelist informed his opponent, while Zuzu narrowed her eyes a bit. 'Quillbolt Hedgehog must have been the card that he discarded through Tuning's effect'. The pink haired female said inside of her mind, figuring out how Quillbolt Hedgehog was in the Graveyard. "Now! Junk Synchron Tunes with Junk Converter and Quillbolt Hedgehog!" Yusei declared, throwing his right hand into the air.

(Play Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Yusei Fudo music)

Both Quillbolt Hedgehog and Junk Converter took off into the air, while Junk Synchron grabbed hold of his leveler and pulled on it, revving up the energy on his back. The Tuner Monster then burst into energy that shot out into the air, before it split apart and cleared to reveal 3 green rings. The green greens flew after Quillbolt Hedgehog and Junk Converter, coming together as they passed through the two monsters. Quillbolt Hedgehog and Junk Converter turned orange transparent with two lights appearing in them each.

Levels: 3 + 2 + 2 = 7.

A thin, bright beam then appeared in between the rings and lights, before enlarging into a large one that consumed both the rings and lights. "Clustering wishes will become a new shining star! Become the path its light shines upon! I Synchro Summon! Level 7! Stardust Pegasus!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out to the heavens as Stardust Pegasus emerged from the bright light and released a fierce cry, spreading its wings with feathers falling from them.

Stardust Pegasus ATK: 2300/ Level: 7.

"Since Quillbolt Hedgehog left the field, it's now removed from play!" Yusei informed his opponent, holding up the Machine-Type monster's card before putting it away in his jacket's pocket. "Your horse is no match for my Opera despite its fancy appearance". Zuzu said with narrowed eyes, pointing out that Stardust Pegasus had lower ATK than her Opera's. "Whoever said I was done? I activate Junk Converter's ability from the Graveyard!" Satellite's Shooting Star declared as he threw his right hand out, while a bright light erupted out of his Duel Disk's Graveyard Zone.

"When this card is used as Synchro Material and sent to the Graveyard; I can Special Summon a Tuner Monster from the Graveyard!" Yusei explained as Tuning Gum's card slotted out of the Graveyard Zone, before he took and placed it down on the Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared, and out came the Tuner Monster; Tuning Gum with a grin.

Tuning Gum DEF: 1200/ Level: 1.

"But he won't be around for long. Because I'm Tuning him with Stardust Pegasus!" Yusei called out, swiping his right hand out as Stardust Pegasus took flight while Tuning Gum transformed into a single green ring that chased after the Beast-Type monster. The ring circled around Stardust Pegasus, causing it to turn orange transparent as it was scanned. Then, 7 bright stars appeared, lined up within Stardust Pegasus's body.

Levels: 7 + 1 = 8.

A thin, bright beam then appeared in between the ring and lights, before enlarging into a large one that consumed both the ring and lights. "Colossal Fighter, let's rev it up!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out to the heavens as Colossal Fighter emerged from the beam and came crashing down in front of Yusei in a superhero landing, kicking up a great gust of wind.

Colossal Fighter ATK: 2800/ Level: 8.

"A Level 8 Synchro Monster!?" Zuzu cried out in surprise with wide eyes at the sight of Colossal Fighter. "I'm afraid it's much worse than that. Colossal Fighter gains 100 ATK Points for every Warrior monster in any Graveyard!" Yusei informed his opponent, before holding up his left arm. "There's two in my Grave, while there's none in yours. So, that's a total of 200 points". He calculated as two beams shot out of his Duel Disk's Graveyard Zone and struck Colossal Fighter's back, causing the Synchro Monster to power up.

Colossal Fighter ATK: 2800 + 200 = 3000.

"3000 ATK Points!?" The Melodious Duelist said with narrowed eyes, while Opera looked a little frightened. "And they're coming right at ya! Colossal Fighter, attack Opera the Melodious Diva!" Yusei commanded, swiping his right hand out to the side. Colossal Fighter cried out, before leaping towards Opera the Melodious Diva. "Hold it right there! I activate the Trap card; Dimensional Prison!" Zuzu called out, swiping her right hand out as her face-down card lifted itself up and began glowing purple.

"When your monster declares an attack; Dimensional Prison can target that monster and banish it!" The pink haired female explained the Trap card's effect with a growing smirk, one that Yusei matched with his own. "Not today! I activate Tuning Gum's special ability from the Graveyard!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, throwing his right hand out as a black portal appeared in front of him.

"When a card or effect targets exactly 1 Synchro Monster I control; by banishing this card from the Graveyard, your card activation is negated!" Yusei explained, holding up Tuning Gum's card with his right hand, before putting the card away in his pocket. Tuning Gum then shot out of the black portal and towards Dimensional Prison's card, striking it and causing the card to be covered in green slime. Dimension Prison's card then conducted sparks of electricity, before it disappeared completely. Colossal Fighter reared his right fist back as he prepared to strike Opera. She gave the puppy-dog eyes in hopes of being spared, but it had no effect as Colossal Fighter punched her with his right fist, causing Opera to explode into particles and making Zuzu wince. (3000 – 2500 = 500)

Zuzu Life Points: 4000 – 500 = 3500.

Zuzu gritted her teeth and glared towards Yusei in anger at how he destroyed her strategy. Satellite's Shooting Star showed no care at Zuzu's glare as Colossal Fighter returned to his side. "I end my turn here". The bearer of the Crimson Dragon's Head declared his turn over, crossing his arms as he did so.

(Music end)

Zuzu Life Points: 3500/ Number of cards in hand: 2.

"This Duel is just getting started, so don't think you're in the clear just yet! I draw!" The pink haired girl called out, drawing her card in a dramatic fashion by swiping her right hand out to the side. She brought the card in front of herself to see what it was, before holding it out. "I activate the Graceful Charity Spell card!" Zuzu exclaimed as the card began to glow, before she discarded it.

"I draw 3 cards…" The Standard fragment of Ray began, drawing the top 3 cards of her deck. She took a moment to look at them, before adding them to her hand. "Then discard 2 cards". She added, taking 2 of cards and discarded them to the Graveyard Zone of her Duel Disk. She then took one of the 3 cards in her hand and held it out. "I Summon Miku the Melodious Diva in ATK Position!" Zuzu called out as she swiped the card onto her Duel Disk's blade.

A portal appeared in front of her, before a new monster emerged from within it. It was a beautiful girl having a voluptuous bust, curvy figure and smooth skin. She had long bluish purple hair that reached her back and indigo eyes. She wore a yellow dress with blue and white ruffles covering some parts of her dress. She had a musical note hair clip with a flower petal connected. On her neck is a choker with a white lily. She had a bluish purple ribbon tied to her back with long ends that reached the back of her knees. She had white long gloves that reached past her wrist, long white stockings that went past her dress' skirt and bluish purple high heels. Finally, she had a yellow masquerade mask on and a violin in her right hand. Miku gave a wink as she was covered by a white aura through Stage of Light's power.

(Miku the Melodious Diva/ Level: 4/ Attribute: LIGHT/ Type: Fairy/ Effect/ ATK: 1000/ DEF: 800/ Effect: Any Battle Damage this card's controller takes from a battle involving this card becomes 0. Once per turn; you can select one face-up monster that your opponent controls and take control of it until the End Phase. However, the monster selected for this effect cannot declare an attack.)

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1000 + 200 = 1200.

Zuzu then gave a giggle with a sly expression on her face, something that caused Yusei to narrow his eyes at her. "I missed the joke". Satellite's Shooting Star stated, yet that only caused Zuzu to giggle more. "Don't worry; you'll get the joke soon. But first; I activate Stage of Light's effect!" Zuzu declared, throwing her right hand into the air and snapped her fingers. The lights suddenly went out and the stage was dark.

Yusei raised an eyebrow at the sudden blackout, while Zuzu kept her sly grin. "If I control a "Melodious" monster on my field, I can Special Summon a LIGHT monster from my Graveyard". The pink haired girl explained her Field Spell's effect as spotlights came on and started going all over the place. "So, please welcome one of today's stars! Meloetta the Melodious Maestra!" Zuzu called out, rearing her right hand up before bringing it out to show that she was holding a Monster card.

The spotlights all came together and focused on the spot right next to Miku, revealing a new monster. It was a beautiful young woman with peach skin and long green hair that almost reached the ground. She had greenish blue coloured eyes, a jewel on its forehead and a black headpiece that seems to be shaped like a treble clef which doubled as an attached microphone such as one often used by singers. She wore a black Victorian era dress adorned in musical notes to make it appear as though she's bringing a sheet of music to life. White high heeled shoes on her feet and finally, carried a golden harp in her right hand. Meloetta sung a peaceful song as she stroke her harp's strings, releasing a peaceful melody.

(Meloetta the Melodious Maestra/ Level: 7/ Attribute: LIGHT/Type: Fairy/ Effect/ ATK: 2000/ DEF: 1400/ Effect: Once per turn; you can increase the ATK and DEF of all LIGHT Monsters on the field by 800. You cannot increase the ATK and DEF of monsters you control for the rest of this turn, except LIGHT monsters.)

"Don't forget Stage of Light's effect! Since there's now 2 "Melodious" monsters on my field, that's 400 points!" Zuzu reminded her opponent as both Meloetta and Miku powered up.

Meloetta the Melodious Maestra ATK: 2000 + 400 = 2400.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1200 + 200 = 1400.

"But the power up doesn't stop there! I activate Meloetta's special ability!" Zuzu declared, throwing her right hand out as Meloetta began playing her harp and released peaceful music, causing Miku to sing along with it. "Once a turn; Meloetta can increase the ATK and DEF of all LIGHT Monsters by 800!" The pink haired girl explained the Fairy-Type Monster's effect, while both Meloetta and Miku powered up once more.

Meloetta the Melodious Maestra ATK: 2400 + 800 = 3200/ DEF: 1400 + 800 = 2200.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1400 + 800 = 2200/ DEF: 800 + 800 = 1600.

Despite Meloetta now overpowering his monster in ATK Points, Yusei kept a completely calm expression on his face, something that Zuzu frowned at as she wanted to see the Synchro Duelist panic. "If that doesn't worry you, then this will! Miku, use your special ability!" The pink haired girl exclaimed as she swiped her right hand out to the side. Miku closed her eyes and began singing, this time releasing sound waves from her mouth at Colossal Fighter. The sound wave attacks struck, but did no harm to the Synchro Monster. Instead; purple glowing eyes appeared in its visor. Colossal Fighter then leaped over and landed behind Zuzu, facing Yusei now.

This caused Satellite's Shooting Star to raise an eyebrow in curiosity, while Zuzu gave a grin. "Miku has the power to take control of a monster of yours until the End Phase of my turn". The Standard fragment of Ray explained with a cheerful voice, before she frowned in anger towards the bearer of the Crimson Dragon's Head. "It's a bit ironic. I stole something of yours, just like how you and Lulu stole from me!" Zuzu growled out in anger and hatred at Yusei, causing him to narrow his eyes at her.

"I didn't steal anything from you, nor did Lulu". Satellite's Shooting Star replied to the pink haired female, yet that only seemed to anger her. "Lier! It's because of you that Yuya…Yuya is…!" Zuzu began, only to stop herself and tilt her head down in sadness. "What? Yuya's what?" Yusei questioned the teenage girl, causing her to look up and glare at him once more. "It's because of you that Yuya doesn't rely on me anymore!" The pink haired female shouted out towards Yusei, throwing her right hand out to the side.

Zuzu's answer caused Satellite's Shooting Star to widen his eyes in confusion at her words. "Rely on you?" Yusei questioned the teenage girl, something she nodded before pointing her right hand's index finger towards him. "Miku, attack him directly!" The Melodious Duelist commanded her Fairy-Type monster. Miku grew a grin as she summoned a violin bow with her right hand, before she flew towards Yusei, intending to strike him with it.

"Not so fast! I play Swift Scarecrow!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, swiping his right hand out with Swift Scarecrow's card in between the index and middle fingers. The card released a bright light and Swift Scarecrow shot out of it and towards Miku thanks to its boosters. The Fairy-Type Monster widened her eyes in surprise, before she swung her bow down on Swift Scarecrow and destroyed it. "What just happened!?" Zuzu questioned in surprise at the unexpected development.

"Swift Scarecrow happened, that's what! When a monster you control declares a direct attack, I can negate the attack and end the Battle Phase by discarding this card from the hand". The Synchro Duelist explained, discard Swift Scarecrow's card to the Graveyard. Zuzu growled in anger, before taking hold of the last card in her deck and slotted it into her Duel Disk. "I'll get you yet! Your move!" The pink haired female told the Signer as a face-down card appeared besides her. Colossal Fighter's glowing eyes ceased, before the Synchro Monster disappeared and reappeared on Yusei's side of the field.

Yusei Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 3.

Yusei placed his right hand on the top card of his deck and grabbed hold of it. "My turn now. I draw". Satellite's Shooting Star said with a calm voice, drawing the card in a normal fashion and brought it to his face. He looked down at the new card and cracked a grin at seeing what it was. "I equip Colossal Fighter with the Equip Spell; Assault Armor!" Yusei called out, flipping the card over in his hand, before proceeding to slot the card into his Duel Disk.

A large copy of the card appeared besides him, before it began glowing. Colossal Fighter then gained a bright orange aura around himself, causing him to rear his arms in, and then spread them out and released a mighty roar. "This card can only be equipped to a Warrior-Type Monster that's the only one on my field. It gains 300 ATK Points". Yusei explained the Spell card's effect as Colossal Fighter powered up.

Colossal Fighter ATK: 3000 + 300 = 3300.

Yusei then swiped his right hand forward and pointed towards Meloetta the Melodious Maestra. "Colossal Fighter, attack Meloetta!" Satellite's Shooting Star commanded his Synchro Monster. Colossal Fighter cried out, before gliding through the ground towards Meloetta and shoulder tackled her, causing the Fairy-Type Monster to gasp in pain, before shattering into particles. (3300 – 3200 = 100)

Zuzu Life Points: 3500 – 100 = 3400.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 2200 – 200 = 2000.

"Now I activate Assault Armor's second effect!" Yusei declared, before holding up Assault Armor's card with his right hand. "I can send this card to the Graveyard, but upside is that the monster equipped to it can attack a second time!" He explained the Equip Spell's effect, discarding the card as Colossal Fighter's orange aura disappeared.

Colossal Fighter ATK: 3300 – 300 = 3000.

"What the!?" The pink haired female cried out in surprise as Colossal Fighter shifted its gaze over to Miku, before ramming his right fist to her. Miku cried out in pain, before she exploded. "One thing you should know about Miku is that all the battle damages from a battle that involves her is reduced to 0, so I take no damage!" Zuzu told Satellite's Shooting Star as Colossal Fighter floated back towards Yusei's field.

"Not bad. I'll set a monster in face-down DEF Position and end my turn". Yusei told his opponent, taking a card from his hand and placing it sideways, face-down on his Duel Disk's blade. A face-down card appeared on his field, before a shadowy caged monster with red eyes appeared from within it, glaring at Zuzu.

Zuzu Life Points: 3400/ Number of cards in hand: 0.

Zuzu glared at Yusei in deep anger with her right fist shaking a bit from the anger that she was experiencing. "I WILL defeat you, Yusei! Even if it's the last thing I do!" The pink haired female growled out in anger, before grabbing hold of the top card of her deck with her right hand. "I draw!" She cried out, drawing the card in a dramatic fashion.

She looked at the card and cracked a grin at seeing what it was, before holding it out. "I Summon Canon the Melodious Diva!" Zuzu called out, throwing the card onto her Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared besides her, before Canon the Melodious Diva came flying out of it and gave a wink as she gave a poss.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 1400 + 200 = 1600.

"At this moment, I activate my Trap card! Card of Last Will!" Zuzu shouted out, holding her left hand out as her face-down card lifted itself up and began to glow. "When the ATK of a monster I control changes; this Trap allows me to draw until I have 5 cards in my hand!" The pink haired female explained her Trap card's effect, before she began drawing 5 cards one by one. Once she had all 5 cards, she held them up with her right hand.

Despite the situation, Yusei gave an impressed smile. True; this may be his very first-time witnessing Zuzu duel and seeing her deck in action, but he was impressed with how she's arranged and uses it. 'Despite the anger that she's feeling; it's focused and not running wild. And she knows how to bring out her card's true power. She truly is a Duelist with much potential'. Satellite's Shooting Star thought to himself with a small smile, honestly glad that Zuzu was growing as a duelist.

Zuzu transferred the five cards to her left hand and looked at them for a moment, before giving a small smile. She then swiped her right hand out. "I activate Stage of Light's effect to revive Miku the Melodious Diva from my Graveyard!" The pink haired girl called out as a black portal appeared, before Miku the Melodious Diva floated out of it.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1000 + 400 = 1400.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 1600 + 200 = 1800.

Yusei crew a curious expression on his face at seeing Zuzu revive Miku and not Meloetta. Still, he kept silent and awaited her next move. 'Even if I destroy Colossal Fighter in battle, its effect can just revive itself. So, that's why I need to go for its weakness instead'. Zuzu thought to herself, before holding her left hand out forward towards Yusei. "I activate Miku the Melodious Diva's special ability and take control of your Colossal Fighter once more!" The pink haired teenage girl declared, causing the Synchro Duelist to narrow his eyes at her.

Miku closed her eyes and began singing, this time releasing sound waves from her mouth at Colossal Fighter. The sound wave attacks struck, but did no harm to the Synchro Monster. Instead; purple glowing eyes appeared in its visor. Colossal Fighter then leaped over and landed behind Zuzu and her monsters. Yusei still showed no concern, yet this didn't anger Zuzu as she took a card from her hand and held it up. "Next up; I activate the Sacred Sword of Seven Stars". The Standard fragment of Ray declared, before slotting the card into her Duel Dusk and a large copy of it appeared in front of her.

"By banishing a Level 7 or 8 monster like your Colossal Fighter…" Zuzu began to explain as Colossal Fighter began to disperse into white sparkles. "I get to draw 2 new cards!" She finished, drawing the top 2 cards of her deck and added them to her hand. 'Not bad. She found a loophole in Colossal Fighter's effect. If he's banished, he can't use his effect to Special Summon himself'. Yusei thought to himself, growing impressed once more with how Zuzu thought around Colossal Fighter's ability.

"You're in trouble now, Yusei!" The Standard fragment of Rey exclaimed, taking another card from her hand and held it out. "If I control a Melodious monster, I can Special Summon this! Sonata the Melodious Diva!" Zuzu called out, showing the card before placing it down on the Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared, before Sonata the Melodious Diva flew out of it and sang a peaceful song.

Sonata the Melodious Diva ATK: 1200 + 600 = 1800/ Level: 3.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1400 + 200 = 1600.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 1800 + 200 = 2000.

"With these three ladies, your Life Points are about to take a big hit! Miku, attack Yusei's face-down monster!" Zuzu commanded, throwing her right hand. Miku closed her eyes and sang, releasing a sound wave attack towards Yusei's face-down monster. It flipped over to reveal that it was Shield Wing's card, before it began glowing with the Winged Beast-Type Monster rising up from within the glow. Shield Wing gave a cry, before crossing its hands over to form a shield with its wings.

Shield Wing DEF: 900/ Level: 2.

The sound wave attacks struck, but Shield Wing stayed strong and repelled the attack, something that made Zuzu widen her eyes in surprise. "How did that chicken survive?!" The pink haired female questioned the adult male, who gave her a small grin. "Up to twice per turn; Shield Wing cannot be destroyed in battle". Yusei explained how his monster survived the attack, having a hint of smugness in his voice.

Zuzu gritted her teeth in anger, bringing up her right hand once more. "Fine then! Cannon, attack next!" The pink haired female commanded, swiping her hand out to the side. Canon brought her hands together and singed, releasing a sound wave attack at the Winged Beast Monster. Yet, Shield Wing survived the attack and repelled it, causing Canon to frown at the Winged Beast monster. "That was the last attack your birdbrain was gonna survive! Sonata, attack Shield Wing!" Zuzu commanded, swiping her right hand back in front of herself.

Sonata sung once more, releasing another sound wave attack towards Shield Wing, this time breaking through its shield. Shield Wing cried out, before shattering into pieces. Yusei gave a thankful look as he sent Shield Wing's card to the Graveyard Zone of his Duel Disk. "Now that your chicken is gone, I'd like to see how you turn things around. I'll set a face-down card and end my turn!" Zuzu called out, holding a card out to the side with her right hand's index and middle fingers, before slotting it into her Duel Disk. A face-down card appeared in front of her, before Zuzu looked towards and gave a grin at Yusei.

Yusei Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 2.

Satellite's Shooting Star placed his right hand on the top card of his deck, before drawing it by swiping his hand out to the side. Yusei brought the card up to see what it was, before he gave a small grin at seeing what he got. He placed his new card in his hand, before taking the other 2 and held them up. "I'll set 2 face-downs!" Yusei called out as he swiped them into his Duel Disk, before two face-down cards appeared in front of him.

"I'm not afraid of two face-down cards, Yusei!" Zuzu called out towards the Synchro Duelist with resolve in her voice. "That's glad to hear, but let's see after this!" Yusei replied to the teenage girl, taking the single remaining card from his hand and held it up close to the side of his face. "I activate the Card of Sanctity Spell card!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, before slotting the card into his Duel Disk. A copy of Card of Sanctity, only larger, appeared in front of him, before it shot out a golden beam towards the sky.

It then created a bright light, getting Zuzu to look up towards it with a curious expression on her face. "This Spell card allows us both to draw until we have 6 cards in our hand!" Yusei explained the Spell card's effect, causing Zuzu to widen her eyes in shock as she looked back down towards him. 'Draw until we have 6 cards!? That's why he set those 2 face-downs, so he can draw 6 new cards from his deck! While I only get 2 cards since I already have 4 cards!' Zuzu thought to herself, gritting her teeth in anger as she drew the top 2 cards of her deck, while Yusei drew the top 6 in a dramatic fashion by swiping his right hand out to the side.

The pink haired teenager added the cards to her hand, while Satellite's Shooting Star looked at his new cards through the corner of his right eye. He grew a small smile at seeing what they were. "Just what I needed". Yusei stated, before adding the cards to his left hand; then swiping his right one out forward. "I reveal the Spell card; Synchro Overtake!" The Synchro Duelist called out as one of his face-down cards lifted itself up to reveal that it was a Spell card, before it began glowing.

The Extra Deck section of Yusei's Duel Disk opened, before Junk Warrior's card slotted out and Yusei took hold of it with his right hand. "By revealing a Synchro Monster in my Extra Deck like Junk Warrior here; I'm allowed to add of the listed Synchro Materials from my deck or Graveyard to the hand!" The bearer of the Crimson Dragon's Head explained the Spell card's effect, before putting Junk Warrior's card back into the Extra Deck.

The Duel Disk's Extra Deck zone snapped shut, while Synchro Overtake's card disappeared and finally, Junk Synchron's card slotted out of the Graveyard zone. Yusei picked up his favorite Tuner Monster's card and held it between the right hand's index and middle fingers. "I select Junk Synchron!" Satellite's Shooting Star declared his choice, before adding the card to his hand.

'Yusei…' A familiar voice said from behind the Signer, getting him to tilt his head right and saw Stardust Dragon behind him in spirit form. 'I apologize for interrupting, but I think this would be a spectacular time to test it out'. The Synchro Monster said to his partner, sounding a little bit eager. Yusei raised an eyebrow as he wasn't aware of what Stardust was referring to. "What do you mean? Test what out?" Satellite's Shooting Star questioned his ace monster, keeping his voice low to avoid attracting the attention of Zuzu.

'My Duel Dragon form'. Stardust Dragon answered his Signer, causing Yusei to slightly widen his eyes in realization. 'Stardust Spark Dragon, huh? True, this would be a good chance to test it out. Are you ready?' The Synchro Duelist asked the Dragon-Type monster, getting an eager nod instantly from Stardust Dragon. 'I am. I'm pretty eager to finally fight in that form again'. The Synchro Monster answered Satellite's Shooting Star as he grew a grin.

Yusei grew an amused smile at his ace monster's words, and then nodded. 'Alright then! Let's do this!' The Signer exclaimed inside of his mind, before taking Junk Synchron's card from his hand and held it out. "Come on out, Junk Synchron!" Satellite's Shooting Star cried out, swiping the card onto the Duel Disk's blade. A portal appeared in front of him, before a burst of energy came out and cleared, revealing Junk Synchron.

Junk Synchron ATK: 1300/ Level: 3.

"Junk Synchron's special ability now activates! When this card is Summoned; I can Special Summon a Level 2 or below monster from my Graveyard!" Yusei explained the Tuner monster's effect as Junk Converter's card slotted out of his Graveyard Zone, before picking and held it up. "So, say "hello" again to Junk Converter!" He added, before swiping the card down on the blade. Junk Synchro held out his left hand as a portal appeared and out came Junk Converter, taking a defensive stance.

Junk Converter DEF: 200/ Level: 2.

"Now, Junk Synchron Tunes with Level 2 Junk Converter!" Yusei cried out, rearing his right hand back before thrusting it out. Junk Converter took off into the sky, while Junk Synchron cried out as he grabbed his lever and pulled on it. The Tuner Monster's engine revved up, before Junk Synchron burst into energy that split apart into 3 green rings. The rings quickly came together, before they flew after Junk Converter, passing through and scanning the Warrior-Type. Junk Converter turned orange transparent, before 2 stars appeared within its body.

Levels: 3 + 2 = 5.

"From two come one, and from one will come great power! Watch as they merge their might, combine their courage! To Synchro Summon, Junk Warrior!" Yusei chanted as a thin, bright beam then appeared in between the rings and lights, before enlarging into a large one that consumed them both. Junk Warrior emerged from the beam with both of his arms held up, giving out a fierce cry.

Junk Warrior ATK: 2300/ Level: 5.

"And don't forget that when Junk Converter is used as Synchro Material; I can Special Summon a Tuner Monster back from the Graveyard! Junk Synchron, get to it!" Yusei called out, throwing his right hand out as a black portal appeared on the ground and Junk Synchron came out of it, kneeling down in a defensive stance.

Junk Synchron DEF: 500/ Level: 3.

(Play Yu Gi Oh 5Ds - Ost - Yusei Theme)

Stardust Dragon gave a good-hearted chuckle full of delight. 'Long have I waited to return to this form. I will enjoy this'. The Dragon-Type Synchro Monster said with a happy voice, before he disappeared and returned to the Spirit World. Yusei narrowed his eyes, before swiping his right hand into the air. "Level 3 Junk Synchron Tunes with Level 5 Junk Warrior!" Satellite's Shooting Star declared with strong conviction in his voice.

Junk Warrior gave out a cry as he flew into the air, while Junk Synchron grabbed hold of his lever and pulled on it, revving up the engine on his back. The Warrior-Type Tuner Monster then burst into energy and split into 3, before transforming into 3 green rings. The rings gathered and circled around Junk Warrior, scanning him with the Synchro Monster turning orange transparent with 5 stars appearing in a line in his body.

Level: 5 + 3 = 8.

"Power and speed surge towards each other and collide to create pure might. Synchro Summon! Stardust Spark Dragon!" Yusei chanted, holding out a golden glowing card out with his right hand. A thin, bright beam then appeared in between the rings and lights, before enlarging into a large one that consumed them both. A monster emerged from the beam and towered over the field. It was Stardust Dragon, but he had undergone a few changes. He now had turbines and three white claws on his wings, not to mention the gems on his chest were glistening as well. Stardust Spark Dragon released a power roar and spread his wings, while a golden aura appeared around him.

Stardust Spark Dragon ATK: 2500/ Level: 8.

Zuzu gasped in shock as she stared up at the Synchro Monster before her. "I-is…that Stardust Dragon? No…it's different…What is this monster?" The pink haired girl questioned in disbelief, wondering what the connection this dragon had to Stardust Dragon. Yusei stared up at his ace monster's Duel Dragon form, and couldn't help but be in awe at Stardust Spark Dragon. True, there wasn't much in appearance between Stardust Dragon and Stardust Spark Dragon, but there a different presence that this monster gave off than his ace's original form.

Stardust Spark Dragon looked down towards his Duelist and gave him a small grin. 'Thank you Yusei, for allowing me to finally reclaim this form of mine. I have missed it very much'. The Duel Dragon thanked Satellite's Shooting Star with a voice full of gratitude to him. Yusei grew a small smile at his dragon's words, before he nodded to Stardust Spark Dragon. "I'm glad to hear that. But for now, let's see what this form of yours can do". The Synchro Duelist said with a grin, turning to look back towards Zuzu. The words of his duelist made Stardust Spark Dragon chuckle a bit as he shifted his gaze over towards the teenage girl and her field.

'Then, let us get to it!' The Dual Dragon cried out, before releasing a fierce cry towards the three Melodious monsters, causing them to flinch in fear. "Before my Stardust Spark Dragon gets to attacking, I'm gonna equip him with something". Satellite's Shooting Star said with a small smirk, before taking a card from his hand and held it up for Zuzu to see.

It was an Equip Spell card with the card's image showing a transparent form of Stardust Assault Warrior looming over Junk Warrior, transferring its power to the Level 5 Synchro Monster. "I equip Stardust Spark Dragon with the Synchro Legacy Equip Spell card!" Yusei declared, before slotting the card into his Duel Disk. A larger copy of the card appeared in front of Yusei, before it began glowing.

(Synchro Legacy/ Type: Equip Spell/ Effect: Select one monster you control, equip one Synchro Monster from your graveyard to that monster. That monster gains the equipped monster's effects.)

"This card is a bit tricky, so listen carefully. First, I select a monster on my field like Stardust Spark Dragon…" Yusei began to explain, while his dragon gave out a cry at hearing its name. "Then I equip a Synchro Monster from my Graveyard to that monster!" Satellite's Shooting Star continued to explain as Stardust Pegasus' card slotted out of his Duel Disk's Graveyard Zone and he took hold of it.

Yusei slotted the card into his Duel Disk, just like how duelists do it with Spells and Traps. Stardust Pegasus' card then materialized besides Synchro Legacy's card, before the Synchro Monster flew out of it, looking see-through like a ghost to up above Stardust Spark Dragon. "So long as Stardust Pegasus is equipped to Stardust Spark Dragon; he gains the abilities of Stardust Pegasus!" The Signer finished explaining the Equip Spell card's effect, causing Zuzu to widen her eyes in surprise.

"You're joking!" She called out in denial, making Yusei narrow his eyes at her. "Well, I hope you're ready for the punch line! I activate one of the inherited effects of Stardust Pegasus!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, throwing his right hand out as the ghost form of Stardust Pegasus began glowing a white colour. "Once a turn; Stardust Pegasus' effect allows me to Special Summon a Tuner Monster from either the hand or Graveyard!" He explained the Synchro Monster's special ability, bringing up his left arm as a bright orange light erupted out of the Duel Disk. "Welcome back, Junk Synchron!" Yusei called out as Junk Synchron erupted out of the light, before taking a defensive stance.

Junk Synchron DEF: 500/ Level: 3.

"Time to show off your newfound power, Stardust! Attack Miku the Melodious Diva!" The Synchro Duelist commanded his Synchro Monster, throwing his right hand out. Stardust Spark Dragon gave out a fierce cry, before he began gathering bright yellow energy in his mouth. Zuzu then suddenly grew a grin on her face, before she swiped her right hand out.

"You walked right into my Trap; Mirror Force!" The pink haired female called out as her face-down card lifted itself up and began releasing a glow. "When a monster you control attacks; Mirror Force destroys all of your Attack Position Monsters!" Zuzu explained her Trap card's effect with a joyful tone, expecting to see a sign of panic on Yusei. However, to her surprise, she saw the Synchro Duelist smirking a bit at her.

"I activate Stardust Spark Dragon's special ability! Once a turn; I can select a card on the field and negate its destruction!" Yusei informed his opponent as a golden light erupted out of Stardust Spark Dragon. "…Are you kidding me?" Zuzu questioned with half lidded eyes at how even this move was countered. Mirror Force's card then disappeared, before Stardust Spark Dragon unleashed an attack like Cosmic Flare, only yellow, and blasted Miku, causing an explosion.

Sonata the Melodious Diva ATK: 1800 – 200 = 1600.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 2000 – 200 = 1800.

"Miku may deflect the battle damage, but the same can't be said for your other monsters. Stardust Spark Dragon, attack Sonata!" Yusei commanded, pointing his right hand's index finger towards Sonata. Stardust Spark Dragon cried out in response, before unleashing another yellow Cosmic Flare attack at Sonata. The attack struck and created an explosion, the strong gusts of wind created from the attack blew hard against Zuzu, pushing her back a bit. (2500 – 1600 = 900)

Zuzu Life Points: 3400 – 900 = 2500.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 1800 – 200 = 1600.

The smoke screens created from Stardust Spark Dragon's attacks died down and cleared. Zuzu slightly winced a bit, before tilting her head down with her eyes being covered in shadows. "I've done enough damage for this turn. Go ahead and make your move". Yusei told the teenage girl, declaring his turn over as he didn't need to make any more moves.

(Music end)

Zuzu Life Points: 2500/ Number of cards in hand: 6.

Zuzu's body began shaking, but the cause of why was unknown. Yusei raised an eyebrow at seeing this, but remained silent. "…Give up…I can't give up…" She muttered, yet Yusei was able to hear her perfectly. Zuzu then lifted her head to show the deep glare on her face. "I can't give up now! All I have to do is win, then everything will go back to normal!" The pink haired female shouted out, causing Satellite's Shooting Star to frown in confusion at her words.

'Everything will go back to normal? Is she talking about how things used to be back before Lulu, Rin and I came along?' The Synchro Duelist questioned inside of his mind, having no idea what Zuzu was referring to as "normal" like that. "My turn now! I draw!" The teenage female cried out, drawing her card in a dramatic fashion by swiping her right hand out to the side. She didn't even look at it as she pointed her right hand out.

"I activate Stage of Light's effect! Since I have a Melodious Monster on my field; I can Special Summon a LIGHT attribute monster from my Graveyard!" The teenage girl explained her Field Spell's effect once more as the curtain made of light began to glow brightly. "Unfortunately, it's time for the stage to close". Yusei said with his eyes narrowed, causing Zuzu to tilt her head in confusion at his words.

"Go! Scrap-Iron Statue!" Satellite's Shooting Star called out, swiping his left hand out to the side as his face-down card lifted itself up and revealed itself. The card's image brightly glowed a white colour, before a Stardust Dragon statue made out of scrap came out of it. "When you activate a face-up Spell/Trap card on your field, Scrap-Iron Statute destroys it!" Yusei explained the Trap card's effect with a natural expression on his face. The same couldn't be said for Zuzu as she gasped in shock at what she heard. The Stardust Dragon statute gained a purple aura, before the Stage of Light field around them all shattered into pieces, revealing them back inside the warehouse when the Duel started.

Canon the Melodious Diva ATK: 1600 – 200 = 1400.

"Then, after it destroys your card, Scarp-Iron Statue resets itself". Yusei added as the statute returned to its card, before it returned to being face-down. Zuzu gritted her teeth in anger, before bringing her right hand to her Duel Disk's Graveyard Zone and held it there. "You may have destroyed my Field Spell, but you didn't negate it! So, I can still Summon a Light Attribute Monster from my Graveyard!" The teenage girl told her opponent, before a card slotted out and into between her index and middle fingers. Zuzu placed the card down on her Duel Disk's blade, before a portal appeared and Miku the Melodious Diva emerged from within it.

Miku the Melodious Diva ATK: 1000/ Level: 4.

"Her again…!" Yusei grumbled out, eyes narrowed and directed at the Fairy-Type monster. "If I can't destroy your monster; then I'll just use it myself! I activate Miku's special ability!" Zuzu declared, throwing her right hand out. Miku closed her eyes and folded both hands on her chest, before she began singing and released a sound wave towards Stardust Spark Dragon. The Synchro Monster narrowed its eyes, while Yusei picked up a card from his hand.

"Sorry, but not this time either. I play the special ability of Effect Veiler!" The Signer called out, holding the card out to show it towards Zuzu. He then discarded the Tuner Monster's card to the Graveyard, while Effect Veiler appeared in front of Stardust Spark Dragon, looking see through as a ghost just like Stardust Pegasus. "By discarding this card; one of your monsters' effect is negated". Yusei explained, causing the pink haired girl to narrow her eyes in annoyance.

The sound wave attacks struck the see through Effect Veiler, but were unable to push through and were instead disintegrated the moment they made contact. Effect Veiler then disappeared with Stardust Spark Dragon giving out a roar of rage towards Miku for attempting to control him. Zuzu groaned out in displeasure at seeing her move foiled once again by Yusei. She then looked at her hand and frowned a bit.

'Where are they? Without those cards, I can't make the move that I've worked so hard to master in order to defeat Yusei. I'll just have to go with whatever I have on me now'. The teenage girl thought to herself, before she took both Canon and Miku's cards from the blade and held them up. "I release both Miku the Melodious Diva and Canon the Melodious Diva!" The teenage girl declared as the two Fairy-Type monsters transformed into yellow orbs, before they both came together and formed a portal.

"To Summon this! Mozarta the Melodious Maestra!" Zuzu cried out to the heavens, holding the card out in between her right hand's index and middle fingers. She then swiped the card down on her Duel Disk's blade. Mozart the Melodious Maestra then flew out of the portal and cried out, holding out her arms and wings spread out completely.

Mozarta the Melodious Maestra ATK: 2600/ Level: 8.

"So, that's your ace monster that Yuya told me about, huh? I wonder what sort of tricks it has". Yusei remarked, glowing a small eager expression on his face. Yusei's words caused Zuzu to narrow her eyes at him.

"If you know about Mozarta, then you should know her special ability!" The teenage girl exclaimed as she took another card from her hand and held it up. "Mozarta allows me to Special Summon a Level 4 or below Melodious Monster from my hand! Appear, Solo the Melodious Songstress!" Zuzu called out, throwing the card onto her Duel Disk's blade. With a flash of light, Solo the Melodious Songstress appeared and gave a humble bow.

Solo the Melodious Songstress ATK: 1600/ Level: 4.

"Now! It's time to begin my attack!" The Standard fragment of Ray called out, picking up one of the five cards in her hand with her right hand's index and middle fingers. "I equip Mozarta with the United We Stand Equip Spell card!" The pink haired female declared, before swiping the card into her Duel Disk.

A large copy of the United We Stand Spell card appeared besides her, before both it and Mozarta began to glow an orange colour. "For every face-up monster that I control on the field, Mozarta gains 800 ATK Points! Since I have 2, that's 1600 points!" Zuzu explained to the adult male as her ace monster powered up.

Mozarta the Melodious Maestra ATK: 2600 + 1600 = 4200.

"4200 ATK Points, huh". Yusei remarked with slightly narrowed eyes, yet kept his cool. "That's right, and you better believe I'm gonna put them to good use! Mozarta, attack Stardust Spark Dragon!" Zuzu commanded, throwing her right hand out towards the Synchro Monster. Mozarta brought out her music stick with her right hand and took off into the air. She suddenly stopped and waved her hands, before her wings spread out fully and began to gleam green.

She waved her music stick around, creating two circle waves of wind that merged into one and shot out towards Stardust Spark Dragon. "I play Stardust Spark Dragon's special ability once more! So now, he's safe from this battle's destruction!" Yusei called out, thrusting his left hand out, while holding his cards down so that Zuzu wouldn't see them. "You still take damage though!" The teenage girl reminded him as the circle wave of wind struck Stardust and created an explosion, the force of it pushing Yusei back a mere inch. (4200 – 2500 = 1700)

Yusei Life Points: 4000 – 1700 = 2300

Yusei Life Points: 4000 – 1700 = 2300.

The smokescreen created from the explosion cleared to reveal Stardust Spark Dragon unharmed, but he looked a little angered. "I finally got a hit on your Life Points! But I'm not done yet! Solo the Melodious Songstress now attacks Junk Synchron!" Zuzu called out with a growing grin on her face. Solo cried out, before charging forward and landed a direct leg thrust on Junk Synchron's face, causing the Warrior-Type Monster to shatter into pieces.

The Standard fragment of Ray gave a happy giggle at seeing things go her way, before she picked up two cards from her hand and slotted them into the Duel Disk. "I'll throw 2 cards face-down and end my turn". Zuzu declared her turn over as 2 face-down cards appeared in front of her.

Yusei Life Points: 2300/ Number of cards in hand: 4.

"My turn now". Yusei stated, placing his right hand on the top card of his deck. "I draw". He added, drawing the card by swiping his right hand out to the side. "Before you get to anything; I play my Trap card! Melodious Song of Divine Punishment!" The Standard fragment of Ray called out as one of her face-down cards lifted itself up and began to glow a blue colour. "For every Melodious Monster on my field; you take 800 points of damage!" Zuzu explained with a grin, before green lightning shot out of the Trap card and headed towards Yusei. Satellite's Shooting Star just leaned his head to the left, causing the lightning to miss him and struck the warehouse's doors instead.

Yusei Life Points: 2300 – 1600 = 700.

"But that's not all! Next; I reveal a new Trap card of mine called Melodious Chaotic Drum Beat!" Zuzu called out, swiping her right hand out to the side as her second face-down card lifted itself up. It was a Trap card with the image showing Cannon the Melodious Diva and Solo the Melodious Songstress playing two different sets of drum sets and releasing sound waves at the face-down card forms of Mirror Force and Dark Hole.

(Melodious Chaotic Drum Beat/ Type: Trap/ Effect: For every face-up "Melodious" monster on your side of the field, destroy 1 Spell/Trap card on your opponent's field. Once per turn; not on the turn that this card was sent to the GY, you can banish this card and Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower LIGHT Attribute monster from your GY.)

Two different drum sets appeared in front of both Mozarta and Solo, which the two Fairy-Type monsters picked up the chopsticks and began playing away. "For every face-up Melodious Monster on my field, Chaotic Drum Beat can destroy one of your Spells or Traps! Since I have two; both your Synchro Legacy and Scrap-Iron Statue are out of here!" Zuzu explained her Trap card's effect with a grin, causing Yusei to raise an eyebrow at her.

Both Mozarta and Solo played the drums harder, creating sound waves that shot out towards Synchro Legacy and Scarp-Iron Statue's cards. They struck and caused the two to shatter, while the spirit form of Stardust Pegasus disappeared. The drum sets and chopsticks in the two Fairy-Type monsters' hands disappeared, while Zuzu had a grin on her face. "How do you like that?" The pink haired girl asked the Signer with a voice full of mockery.

Yusei just grew a small smile in response as he added his new card to his hand. "A little bit because when Scrap-Iron Statute is sent to the Graveyard, its final effect activates and allows me to Summon a Junk Monster from my Graveyard". Satellite's Shooting Star explained his Trap card's final effect to the teenage girl, causing her to gasp in surprise.

A portal appeared in front of Yusei, before he thrust his open right hand out towards it. "Welcome back, Junk Warrior!" The Synchro Duelist called out as Junk Warrior floated out of the portal, before crossing his arms.

Junk Warrior DEF: 1300/ Level: 5.

Zuzu grit her teeth at seeing this, but remained silent. Yusei took 2 cards from his hand and held them up to the side of his face. "I'll throw down 2 face-down cards". The Synchro Duelist said as he swiped his hand over his Duel Disk, slotting the two cards into it in a dramatic fashion. Two face-down cards appeared in front of Yusei as he picked up another card from his hand and held it out.

"Next up, I'm activating the Quick-Play Spell card; Forbidden Lance!" Yusei called out, before slotting the Spell card into the Duel Disk. A large copy of Forbidden Lance's card appeared on Yusei's right, before it began glowing. "This card reduces the ATK Points of a monster by 800, but in exchange; it is unaffected by other Spells and Traps". He explained the Quick-Play Spell card's effect to his opponent, causing Zuzu to raise an eyebrow at him.

"I fail to see how that's gonna help you. That card's effect won't matter and all it'll do is just weaken your monsters". The pink haired girl said with a wave of her right hand, completely unconcerned with Forbidden Lance as she saw no way it could help Yusei. Her words only made Satellite's Shooting Star grin a bit at her. "And just whoever said that I was using it on my own monsters?" He questioned the teenage girl, getting Zuzu to frown in confusion at him.

However, she then widened her eyes in realization as she looked up at Mozarta the Melodious Maestra in slight horror. "Seems like you figured it out. I'm using Forbidden Lance's effect on your Mozarta the Melodious Maestra!" Yusei called out, swiping his right hand forward as a white aura appeared over Mozarta as she powered down.

Mozarta the Melodious Maestra ATK: 4200 – 1600 = 2600 – 800 = 1800.
