//------------------------------// // Chapter one // Story: Yugioh GX: the Duelist of Harmony // by chrisharte97 //------------------------------// I was excited... I was heading to Duel Academy where I could face Duelist like myself for a change. I was moving around the room I was in on the boat heading for Duel Academy getting everything ready to go for my stay there. 'Hey Chris why don't you slow down?' my duel monster spirit friend Sunset Shimmer said, 'It should be for the best or otherwise you'll end up looking bad on your first day.' "Yeah," I admitted to Sunset Shimmer, "Your right Sunset," as I grabbed my duel deck and my duel disk which was colored blue and gold, "Well we're almost at Duel Academy so I guess we'll have more fun dueling, won't we?" "I guess so," Sunset Shimmer agreed, "I'll see you later when we begin our first duel in the academy," as she vanished into thin air and I put my deck in my duel disk then placed my duel disk around my left arm. When I made it to the Slifer Red dorm, I was greeted by a young Slifer Red student. "Well hey there," he said to me, "You must be new to Duel Academy, right?" he asked. "Uh yeah I'am, my name's Christopher Lancer, but you can call me Chris," I replied to him, "And you must the one and only Jaden Yuki, if I'm correct." "Yep that's me," Jaden replied as he saw my duel monster spirit friend Snowdrop standing next to me, "Hey dude is that duel monster spirit right next to you?" I turned to look at Snowdrop then looked back at Jaden and replied to him, "She sure is, this is Snowdrop." "Um... hello there Mr. Yuki," Snowdrop said with a shy voice, "It's very nice to meet you." "It's okay Snowdrop," Jaden said to Snowdrop, "And please just call me Jaden." Just then, Snowdrop and I saw Jaden's duel monster spirit Elemental Hero Neos appeared behind him. "W-who, is that behind you Jaden?" Snowdrop asked one of the best duelist in the academy with a worried look on her face as Jaden turned around to look at Neos. "Don't worry Snowdrop," Neos said to my duel spirit friend, "My name is the Elemental Hero Neos, I'am one of Jaden's duel monster cards." "I've always wanted to meet you Neos," I said to the famous Elemental Hero, "Maybe sometime I can show you guys what my deck is made of." "Sweetness, I hope so too," Jaden said with confidence as I put everything where they were suppose to be and then went off to one of the arenas to begin my exam to see if I'm sure to be a real student in Duel Academy. "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE'RE HERE TO SEE IF MR. LANCER CAN MAKE IT INTO DUEL ACADEMY!" an announcer called out to the crowd as I took to the field with my deck set and duel disk online, "HIS TEST IS TO TRY AND BEAT JESSE ANDERSON IN A DUEL!" I looked out in front of me to see the one and only Jesse Anderson the owner of the Crystal Beast cards walked strait towards to the field as he said to me, "So your the new kid, Chris was it?" "Yeah that's me," I replied to him, "You ready?" "Sure am," Jesse said as his duel disk went online. "GAME ON," we said as we drew our first five cards as our hands; my hand was King Sombra in colt form, Nightmare Shadow trap card, Nightmare Mist, my Dark Pony Fusion spell card, and my Empire of Crystals field spell. LP count: Chris: 4000 Jesse: 4000 "New guy's first, here goes nothing," I said as I drew my next card and it was my Snowfall Summoning trap card... 'Well, well, well, not bad at all,' I thought to myself, "I place two cards face down and end my turn," I said placing my two cards from my hand face down on the field. "My draw," Jesse said as he drew his sixth card, "I summon my Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth," he said again as a oval shaped amber appeared, but shattered to be replaced with a giant mammoth with six tusks; two pairs were large and the other pair was smaller in ATK mode. "I would love to pumble that little tooth pick of a man," Amber Mammoth exclaimed to Jesse. "Wow, even you can talk with monster spirits just like me and Jaden," I said to Jesse with a surprised look on my face. "Well, I'm glad you like that, but for now I'm placing this here face down," Jesse said as he placed his face down. "Alright then, here I go," I said as I drew my next card which was Sunset Shimmer... 'Alright, get ready Sunset,' I thought to myself, "I summon Sunset Shimmer to the field in attack mode!" I said as a burst of flames appeared, but soon turned into a yellow mare with a red and yellow mane, a cutie mark of a yellow sun with red and bright yellow flames, and aquamarine colored eyes. "Well, well, well," Sunset Shimmer said to Amber Mammoth, "Aren't you a big hunk off fat, I can't wait to burn you to a crisp." "Easy there Sunset," I said to her, "This is just an test to see if I can be a student in this academy." "Either way, I haven't roasted an elephant in many years," Sunset Shimmer exclaimed. "But before you attack his Amber Mammoth, I'll play one of my face downs; it's called Snowfall Summoning, this allows me to special summon Snowdrop to the field in attack mode," I said as my face down revealed itself, "So come on out Snowdrop," I continued as a gust of wind picked up; with it was snow taking form of a pony and Snowdrop appeared. When Snowdrop saw Amber Mammoth, she became nervous at the size of the Crystal Beast as she said, "Oh my, this looks like this is going to be a tough fight." "Don't worry Snowdrop," Sunset Shimmer said, "I'll handle the elephant for you." "Wow, Equestrians, I always wanted to see what they looked like," Jesse said with pride on his face. "Well, here's a closer look for you Jesse," I said to him, "Sunset, attack Amber Mammoth with Blazing Fire Storm," I ordered Sunset. "It's on now, 'hose nose'," Sunset taunted as she used her magic to summon fireballs to rain down on Amber Mammoth leaving no trace of him behind. LP count: Chris: 4000 Jesse: 3700 Then out of the smoke came an orange crystal in Jesse's spell and trap card zone. "That Crystal Beast should have been destroyed," Snowdrop said now feeling a bit calmer, but still a little nervous. "Actually he was, but they have a special ability," Jesse said to Snowdrop, "Get this, instead of going to the Graveyard, they stay by turning into precious crystals." "Now that's cool," I exclaimed, "But there's more to my turn, since I activated a trap card, I can special summon King Sombra in Colt form to the field in defense mode," as pulled King Sombra Colt form from my hand... Placed it in my monster card zone, and a small shadow formed around the spot where I placed Colt Sombra then he soon appeared. "Well, isn't this a pleasant surprise," he said. "Ah patients little pal, you'll get your part in this," I said to him, "I place one card face down and that'll do for now." "My draw," Jesse said pulling out another card from his hand, "Now I activate my face down; Trigger Summon," as his face down revealed itself, "Since you just summoned a monster we both get to summon a new monster as long as it's level 4 or bellow." "Okay, well I summon Rarity to the field," I said pulling Rarity out of my deck on to the field in DEF mode. "My, my, my," Rarity exclaimed, "This is certainly interesting, this must be the place called Duel Academy the one that you mentioned to Sunset Shimmer." "And I'll summon, my Crystal Beast Cobalt Eagle," Jesse said playing his card from his hand. As Cobalt Eagle got to the field he saw me and my monsters and said, "Holy Toledo, this must be one who has the Equestrian cards." "Now I'll set a face down and that's it for my turn," Jesse said placing his face down. "Alright then, it's my draw," I said pulling out another card from my hand and this time it was my Nightmare's Curse spell card... "First I'll switch Rarity into attack mode," I said as Rarity switched positions, "Then activate her special ability; you see for every spell card in my hand, Rarity gets 300 attack points for each one." Rarity: ATK: 2450 "Now Rarity attack Cobalt Eagle with with White Gem Blast," I ordered as Rarity blasted Cobalt Eagle, "Now I'll activate the field spell known as The Empire of Crystals," then I placed my field spell in my field spell zone... And the field soon turned into plaza of the Crystal Empire where the Crystal Heart spins around in the center of the empire itself, "But since I now have two spell cards in my hand, Rarity loses 300 of her extra attack points." Rarity: ATK: 2150 "Now I can activate my Colt Sombra second special ability; so I can sacrifice him to summon King Sombra Lord of Dark Magic," I continued as Colt Sombra turned into a black shadow, then the shadow started growing into the adult King Sombra...
