Chapter 5: Date Night, Duel Night
Days came and went, and before anyone knew it friday had arrived. For most students it was a chance to make plans for the weekend. For Burst and Inferno, it was the day they would have their first dates. "I'd stick around Inferno, but I've got other plans tonight. See ya around!"
"Same here Burst! Maybe we'll hang out some other time!" And with that, both of them left to prepare for their dates that night. Burst and Inferno got texts from Celestia and Rarity respectively. 'Make sure to bring your deck with you.' Not being ones to question it, they got their deck boxes and duel disks prepared. Burst was rummaging through his closet trying to put together an outfit. He had jeans and black sneakers picked out, but was missing a good shirt. Then something caught his eye.
"Didn't expect to find this again.", Burst said as he looked at the shirt. It was a shirt made to look like the costume of the red ranger from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers' "Think I'll go with this. It's not a formal date, so I shouldn't worry about dressing up." Burst then summoned Blue Eyes for a lift. "You ready for tonight Burst?", Blue Eyes asked. "Yeah. It's gonna be awesome!" And with that, Blue Eyes flew Burst to Celestia's house. Meanwhile, Inferno was still stuck on picking out an outfit. Noticing his predicament, Red Eyes showed up to try and help him out.
"Inferno, why are you being so picky with an outfit? Just throw together something that looks normal."
"Red Eyes, Rarity is REALLY passionate about clothing! I'm not gonna show up to our date looking like a slob!"
"Dude. It's just a regular date. You're not taking her out somewhere fancy. Just throw together an outfit you like that says 'you.' "
"Heh. I guess I did overthink it a bit too much." Inferno managed to piece together an outfit consisting of red sneakers, black jeans, and a red shirt with the transformers logo on it. "Well Red Eyes, wish me luck!"
"I would, but you don't seem to need it." Inferno then made his way to Rarity's house and Burst had just arrived at Celestia's house. When he knocked on the door, Luna was the one who answered.
"You must be Burst Stream."
"That's me. Uh, is Celestia there? We were supposed to go out tonight."
"She's almost ready. Hope you two have fun!"
"Thanks. I hope so too." Soon Celestia came down to meet them. Oddly enough, she was wearing a shirt similar to Burst's. Only it was based on the pink ranger.
"Hi Burst! You ready?"
"Uh-huh. So what's the first stop on our night out?"
"I thought we should hit-up the duel park first and see where things go from there."
"Sounds like fun!" And with that they left for the duel park.
Meanwhile with Inferno and Rarity...
"So Rarity, why did you tell me to bring my deck with me? Is dueling a part of our date?"
"As a matter of fact, yes. Considering we both like to duel so much I thought it would be a good way to kick this date off!"
"Nice! Hey wait a minute! Isn't that Burst and Principal Celestia?", Inferno asked when he saw Burst and Celestia together.
"I believe it is. Burst asked her out earlier this week."
Inferno nodded as he gave an approving smile. "Nice job Burst! You got yours, and I got mine. Hey Rarity! Why don't we duel them? I'm sure they're here for the same reasons we are, so why not ask them?"
"Sounds like a great idea!"
"Great! I'll flag them down! Hey Burst!", Inferno called out! Noticing his best friend calling to him, Burst decided to see what was up.
"Hey Inferno. I'm guessing you're on a date too?"
"Yup! You and Celestia wanna duel against me and Rarity? I can't think of any better ways to kick-start the night."
"Sure! Just let me tell Celestia." After Burst told her about what he and Inferno had planned, Celestia agreed and soon the duel-date had begun. "Okay. Up first is me against Inferno."
Burst: 8000
Inferno: 8000
"You got the first move Inferno."
"Thanks man! I play Red-Eyes Fusion! I'll send Red Eyes Black Dragon and Summoned Skull to the graveyard to fusion summon Archfiend Black Skull Dragon! That's it for my turn. Your move!"
"Alright! I play the spell card Harmony Absolute and send one Blue Eyes White Dragon to the graveyard to summon Blue Eyes Absolute Dragon! Then I'll play Dragon Shrine to send one normal dragon type monster to the graveyard! And since it was a normal dragon, I get to send another dragon to the graveyard to boost Blue Eyes' attack by 300 points for each monster in the graveyard! Attack with Absolute Neutron Blast!" Blue Eyes charged up his attack and let loose a mighty blast that destroyed Archfiend Black Skull Dragon!
"Way to start off big Burst! But did you forget about Black Skull's effect? Since you attacked him, I can inflict the attack of a Red Eyes normal monster in my graveyard as damage!"
"Oh I knew. Which is exactly why I destroyed him! One of Blue Eyes Absolute's effects is that any effect damage inflicted to me increases my life points instead."
Burst: 10400
Inferno: 5600
"Wow. I didn't expect that. You've brought out your ace, so I'll bring out mine! I summon Black Stone of Legend and tribute it to special summon Red Eyes Black Dragon from my deck! Now I activate Harmony Absolute! I'll send the Red Eyes Black Dragon to bring out Red Eyes Absolute Dragon! You ready Red Eyes?" Inferno called out as Red Eyes Absolute descended from the sky.
"You bet I am! Time to show Blue Eyes my new upgrades!"
"Right! Red Eyes Absolute gains 300 attack for each monster in my graveyard! I know that any effect damage I try to inflict on you will only boost your life points, but I've got a work around for that! I halve Red Eyes' attack points so he can attack you directly!" Red Eyes Absolute flew over Blue Eyes and struck Burst directly!
Burst: 7650
Inferno: 5600
"Nice move Inferno! Didn't expect to be dealt that much damage in just one turn! Both of our dragons are immune to card effects, so the only way for them to take each other down is by sheer force! And I'd say Blue Eyes has the edge in that department! Absolute Nuetron Blast!"
"Good try Red Eyes, but not good enough!", Blue Eyes said as he fired his attack!
"Meh. At least I threw in one good punch!", Red Eyes said as he faded from the field as a result of the attack.
Burst: 7650
Inferno: 5200
"Well the next best thing I can do is this! I play Soul Charge! By paying 1000 life points I can special summon a monster from my graveyard! And I choose Red Eyes Black Dragon!"
"Sorry Inferno. But that's not going to slow me down! One of Blue Eyes Absolute's effects is that he can inflict piercing damage!"
"Well so much for that plan.", Inferno said as his monster was destroyed and the piercing damage hit him full force
Burst: 7650
Inferno: 400
"No matter what I try I know your dragon is going to find some way around it. So I end my turn. Come at me bro! I accept my defeat with grace!", Inferno said in a dramatic fashion.
"You asked for it. Absolute Neutron Blast!" And with one last attack, their duel ended. "Great duel Inferno! I've never seen you pull off a combo like that one. Especially one that let you power up Red Eyes that fast!"
"Thanks Burst! So I guess our girls are up next on the dueling field?"
"Uh-huh. Can't wait to see what moves they've got!"
Celestia: 8000
Rarity: 8000
"I hope you don't mind Principal Celestia, but I'll take the first turn."
"Go ahead."
'Thank you. I play Gem-Knight Fusion to fusion summon Gem Knight-Master Diamond! Now he gains 100 attack for each gem monster in my graveyard! I'll end my turn now. Your move."
"Here I go! I play Hymn of Light and tribute a monster from my hand to ritual summon Saffira, Queen of Dragons! Now I'll play Trade-In to discard a level eight monster to the graveyard and draw two cards. Now I play Return of the Dragon Lords to revive Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand from the graveyard! Next I'll activate his effect! I can target one monster my opponent controls and banish it. Then Felgrand gains attack equal to the level or rank of that monster times 100! And I choose your Master Diamond which means Felgrand gains 900 points! Attack her directly!" Saffira and Felgrand fired two large beams of light energy that struck Rarity directly!
Celestia: 8000
Rarity: 1800
"That was quite the move principal! I summon Gem-Knight Alexandrite and tribute him to special summon Gem-Knight Crystal! Unfortuantely his attack points can't stand up against your monsters', so I'll put him in defense mode and end my turn."
"I'll have Felgrand destroy your destroy your face-down monster, and Saffira attacks you directly for game."
Celestia: 8000
Rarity: lose
"You dueled well Rarity.", Celestia said with a smile.
"Thank you. But you went the whole duel without taking any damage! That alone is pretty impressive without counting the fact you almost had a one-turn knockout earlier!"
"So where to from here?", Inferno asked.
"Getting a bite to eat sounds like a good idea to me.", Burst said. "What about you two?"
"Sounds fine to me.", Celestia said.
"I'm getting a bit peckish myself darling. So what are you in the mood for?"
Burst and Inferno smiled. "Pizza!"
"I know a place.", Celestia said. "Best slices in Canterlot!"
"Perfect! But, quick question. What are we going to do about transportation?", Rarity asked.
"We're on it!", Burst and Inferno said as they summoned Blue Eyes and Red Eyes respectively.
"Good evening. I shall be your driver for the night.", Red Eyes said with a bow. "Red Eyes there's no need to be that formal.", Inferno said. "Says the guy who was freaking out about his outfit just a little while ago.", Red Eyes quipped. Rarity couldn't help but giggle at their interaction as she and Inferno got on Red Eyes' back.
"Ever ride on a dragon before Celestia?", Burst asked. "I think Luna has in her video games. I'll be sure to tell her how it is in real life though.", Celestia said. "Hang on you two. Things might get a little bumpy!", Blue Eyes said as he and Red Eyes took off! Soon they landed at the pizza place Celestia was talking about. "That was amazing!", Celestia said as she got off of Blue Eyes. "I've never had a ride quite like that before." "Yeah. Blue Eyes tends to make things more exciting." "Hey Burst. Make sure you save any left-overs for Red Eyes and I!" "I'll try! But I can't make any promises with Inferno's appetite!" "Hey!", Inferno snapped. "Dude, I saw how fast you demolished that giant cupcake back in Equestria! You've got the appetite of an anime character!" Celestia and Rarity chuckled at the two going back and forth as they went inside. After polishing off a whole pie, Burst made sure to order an extra one to-go. Once they were outside, Burst summoned Blue Eyes. "Here's a whole extra pizza for you and Red Eyes." "Thanks Burst!", Blue Eyes said as he returned to the monster world. "Well, I'm out of ideas. What should we do next?" A spark went off in Inferno's head. "Karaoke! I'm gonna serenade Rarity! And you gotta sing for Celestia, Burst!", Inferno said with a mischievous smile. Burst smirked, "Challenge accepted!" When they arrived at the karaoke place, Inferno was the first to step-up. "This one's for you Rarity!" And with that, he began to sing his song of choice.
Ask if you, can hear the sound
of my voice through the cold hard ground
I lost it while, searching for you. I screamed into the dark!
If the world we're living in, has a single soul that you love
If it holds a shred of meaning, well then it's worth every fight!
And when all we know comes to push and shove, then we will pierce the heavens!
The colors we see are new to you and me when we see the skyyy
As we begin to run, so that we can finally feel the sun
Finally you and I feel so alive, I feel your beating heart!
If you believe in me, we'll find where we were meant to be!
Now who cares about tomorrow if today we are free
My answer's always yes
That I will always stay, with you
"Marvelous!", Rarity cheered! "Encore!" Inferno smiled. "Now it's your turn Burst!" Burst pulled up his song choice on the machine and prepared to sing his heart out.
You are, my fire. The one, desire
Believe when I say. I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart. Can't reach to your heart!
When you say, that I want it that way
Tell me why! Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why! Ain't nothin' but a mistake
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Am I? Your fire? Your one desire?
Yes I know! It's too late!
But I want it that way
Tell me why! Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why!Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why!
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Now I can see that we're fallin' apart, from the way that it used to be. Yeah!
No matter the distance, I want you to know! That deep down inside of me!
You are, my fire. The one, desire.
Don't wanna hear you say!
Ain't nothin' but a heartache! Ain't nothin but a mistake!
I never wanna hear you say! I want it that way!
'Cuz I want it that waayyy
"You didn't tell me you could sing that good Burst.", Celestia said with a smile. Burst couldn't help but blush when she said that.
"I should probably take you back home now.", Burst said as he noticed Inferno getting a goodnight kiss from Rarity. 'Those two seemed to hit-it-off.', Burst thought to himself as he walked Celestia home. "I had a fun night Celestia. What about you?"
"Tonight was amazing. You know how to show a girl a good time.", she said with a warm smile.
"Thanks! Have a goodnight!" As they got closer to her door, Celestia kissed Burst on the lips before she went inside.
"Goodnight Burst Stream" Burst had never felt happier in his life!
'I'm DEFINITELY having sweet dreams tonight!', he thought to himself as he headed home.

More powerful and evil.. well how about for the epilogue Nightmare moon finished winning a duel and came across him and NM talks to him and Dark ice explains what happened and NM decide and ask him to join her that well he can get his revenge
7635662 but she wanted Dark Ice to show him his power by taking something.. or someone precious away from his brother showing her how much he wanted his revenge and that he has returned looking for some revenge and that this time he will not fail and prove to NM how much use Dark Ice can be useful for her
7635685
Hmmm....good idea! But how am I going to fit Burst x Celestia x Nightmare into the next story with an epilogue like that?
7635694 Hmmmmmm... how about it can be after the talk where NM decide to take a nap and ends up in Burst dream

By the way, what sort of dream should Burst be having that NM stumbles upon? I've been working on it so far and haven't come up with much.

7636099 or Burst dueling while celestia is cheering him on
7636707
