Of birds and shadows

"... Now that you have solved by X you need to find the cos and substituted by the original and solved again. That is how you get the answer. Do you understand?"

"Ow-we, yes. Now I get it. Thanks, Twi." A.J. thanks her friend enthusiastically, taking notes in her notebook while bitting her tung. Even though it was Rainbow who ask for Twilight help, it was Apple Jack who was putting the most attention to her. The multi-colored hair teen where just staring at the two with a boring expression.

"I am sorry Rainbow. It was you who ask first for my help. What do you need me to explain?"

"Ho what? No, no. it was the same ones as Applejack had. I already take notes. Thanks, Twilight. You are of so much help." She says with a forcing smile. A.J. and Twilight share a confused stare.

"OK sugar cube, whatever you say. Thanks, again Twi. That's all the doubts Ah had but better get going. Ah still need to prepare for other two test. See Y'all"

"Anytime" Twilight responded. Apple Jack pack her books and exit leaving the entire library for only the two. "So Rainbow. do you have any more doubts? We still have time."

"No, I think I already got it all" Rainbow took look at her notebook without letting Twilight see it as it was full of fidget scribblings and doodles.

"Oh, ok then. I think that we should go to meet up with the others. They must already..." Twilight grab her things and was about to stand up until a hand grab her arm.

"Wait, Actually I need help with another thing."

"Hum. OK?... sure what else you want to study? Chemistry? Biology? "

"Hum.. not quite." She smiles nervously. Rainbow wait for Twilight to seat back in her seat to speak again. Once she did she look around making sure no one else was around to hear her. "It is a little embarrassing to say but I need help with... hum with... Hum"

"With what?" Twilight asks trying to figuring out why Rainbow was like this. "Ho!, I get it now. Rainbow you don't need to be embarrassed about this. Don't worry any word spoken here will get out. I promise"

"Wow. Twilight. Thanks" She says graving a deck of cards from her backpack.

"Sex education is very important for students at our age after all. You don't want to get a disease or something even worst and just because you were ignorant about it. OK, the first thing you should always keep in mind is..."

Dash quickly slam the table with her hand with her face red as a tomato. "What!!!! No!!! How you even..."

"Well, our next class is Health class and the professor says that we will have a quick test about the next topic which is sex education. I study for it, even though it wasn't really needed, I read several documents and I just thought... "

"Duel monster Twilight. I need help with my deck to play with you and Pinkie. That's it" she says almost angrily slamming once again her hand on the table with a deck of cards she pulls out of her backpack an placing them on the table with face still red.

"Ha, ok. That makes more sense. But what is the secrecy all about"

"Are you crazy? People can see me playing that geek game."

"Didn't you just go to a Daring do book convention last month?"

"Well, yea but..."

"And didn't you even cosplay as her and start discussing with other fans about what book was the best"

"Yea. ok I get it"

"You even start fighting with one fan about it, We have the video and all.I think I stll got it let me..." Twilight picked up her pone browsing through her videos.

"OK! I get it." Rainbow pushes down the phone on Twilights hand slowly. "You don't need to shove the video onto my face again. This is different ok." Twilight put aside her phone away waiting for Rainbow to explain.

*Sight* "I.. I was also a big fan of the original show when I was a kid, just like you. I even spend all my money in packs of cards to get my favorite cards of the show. But when I finally get them all, I was too embarrassed to play with anyone. But then Pinkie comes wanting to show the game and... you know... I... I couldn't help it but get excited about it once again. I just want help building a deck and you seem to know more about it. So could you help me."

"Sure thing Dash. But you know you don't need to act cool all the time. You are cool enough as it is."

"Yea, I know I am awesome." She responded scratching her nose with pride and a little embarrassment. "I just want to play Duel monsters with someone and who knows maybe we can get one of those cool duel disks like Sunset."

"Or Pinkie" Twilight added watching with wide eyes Dash's cards.

"Yea and Pi... What? Pinkie has one too..."

HAAAAAAAAAA A loud scream interrupts both girls from there conversation. They look outside the window from where the screamings where coming from. They watch in horror how a group of big metallic birds was attacking the students outside.

"Girls!"*Slam* Applejack enters the library blocking the door with her body as it was slamming hard like if a beast wanted to enter. "Ahhm... I think we'all have a problem" *Slam* "And a big one" *Slam* *Slam*

---

*Boom* A big explosion coming from one of the corridors of the school followed by cheerful giggles of a young girl was heard next to a pair of shadowy figures crash at high speed onto the lockers splatting into them like if they were made of black deep purple paint.

"Take that meany shadow... thingies," The pink girls says in between laughter as she trow more sprinklers to make them and makes explode on the creatures faces... if they had one. The ghostly and shadowy creatures seem not affected by this, however. When the monsters exploded, they simply reform all their parts of its and start attacking once again like nothing.

"There is no use... every time we cut these things," Rairy says launching a pentagon shape crystal at them cutting one halfway through. The monster, un-amused, casually grabs the disk with its metallic claws and crushes it in tiny pieces."Haaa!," Rarity scream as that creature tries to grave her.

*Slam* A seat was thrown at the creature at mare centimeters for it to grab rarity.This gives enough time for Sunset to grab her hand and run the other way. "They keep standing up. we kind of get that"

"Thank you, Darling. I owe you one"

"But what are this monsters?" Fluttershy asks as she saw in horror the other students being trapped by them in between its paint-like body or its green cape and disappearing them by transforming into shadows and banishing on the floor.

"Darling, Don't you think they are..."

"Duel monsters? I will not be surprised. Pinkie?" Sunset asks as Rarity struggles trying to protect her friends with a small force field on one side and Fluttershy and Sunset stopping others with chairs on the other.

Pinke comes running at her friend aid lunching her sweet explosives at the monsters allow the group to advance in search of a safe place." I can't tell. Twilight is the one who knows more about this." Pinkie looks with a serious expression at her pockets. She was running out of sprinklers fast.

As the four turn from a corner, the bump and fall down with something else. "Augh, Twi, AJ, Dashy. You are all ok" Pinke says with a smile running and hugging them tightly in a hug.

"Yeah, Ok Pinkie. We are glad to see Y'all too" AJ says patting Pinkie on the head so she realizes them allowing them to breathe normally once again."Girls, duck!!!!" Aj scream. Every one instantly does, all except one animal lover who was searching around for a real bird. Luckily, Sunset notices it and quickly push Flutters head down allowing Applejack to grave with her bare hands a nearby locker and throw it at the monsters who were about to attack their backs banish at least five of them onto spots on the floor.

"Thanks, Sunset" Fluttershy says with a smile.

"Wow, we should really complain to Principal Celestia about this. Lockers shouldn't be removed that easily." Pinkie says looking at the hole in the wall with missing pieces of paint and concrete where the locker used to be. AJ just roll her eyes at this.

"Thanks, Applejack. is everyone all right?" all her friends nodded at Sunset. "Good, now that we are all here, I think the best option right now is to get out of here to a better place"

"I.. don't think that's a good option" Twilight replay.

"Why not?"

"If you think there is a lot of monster inside the school, you need to see the outside. There is a lot of this big birds-robot monsters outside attacking the everyone. We will never get out of here safe." Rainbow responded.

"robot birds? Why I have a strange feeling of déjà vu right now?" Sunset thought. "Ok then, new plan. Find a safer place inside the school to thought a better plan, any ideas?" She says worriedly as she looks at the locker on the floor where the strange monsters where slowly rasing.

"I believe the music room has the safest door from all school, there is some expensive stuff in there after all." Rarity proposed.

"A better idea than any. Girls lets go." Sunset prompt with her hand to follow her into the music room. But as many were ready to fight there way to the music room, one was standing looking the other way.

"Fluttershy, what are you doing? C'mon lets move" Dash says to her friend as she was looking between them and the other end of the corridor.

Fluttershy looks one more time at her friends with a determined expression. "Sorry girls, go ahead without me. I just remember something and I need to go to my locker quickly. It shouldn't take that long."

"What? Are you crazy?!!" Rainbow scream. "What will be that important to you... ho, of course," She slowly slaps her forehead with her hand realizing why she was doing this. "The pigeons Wait up, I coming with you" She was about to run to catch up with Fluttershy but Applejack reach up her shoulder stopping her. "What? AJ, what are you doing?"

Applejack slowly points in the direction she was about to run. All of the sudden, between Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, there were appearing a new kind of monsters. where the others were intimidating, these ones weren't as much but what they laking at that they had it in numbers. A great number of ghostly and slender ghost and blue floating orbs appear blocking the way.

"Haaaaaa!" Fluttershy screams and runs as a group of those monsters were after her.

"Fluttershy!" Dash exclaim.

"Forget it sugar cube. We need to find another way to meet up with..." But Rainbow didn't listen as she was using her speedster magic power to run gaining momentum and making a big jump like if pole jump was about avoiding the ghost and running towards Fluttershy's direction. "Hum. Ok then. Dash, let us meet at the music room!!!" Aj screams hoping she heard that.

"Applejack, darling could you please give us a hand down here!!!" Rarity says as she was struggling with monsters using her powers as well as Twilight and her telekinetic powers keeping the monsters at bay.

"Ho, sure. sorry." She says nervously as she watches the slender ghost and blue balls slowly closing in. "Hum actually, Ah think it should be better to use Pinkie for this. Ah no longer want to to make more property damage to the school."

"About that" Sunset says scratching the back of her head. "She is gone"

"WHAT?"

"Pinke Pie says that... ough... she was worry about Raven Poe when... she heard that metallic birds where attacking people outside" Twilight replay as she was focusing on pushing the monsters with her power.

"Yea, she kind of jump out the window." Applejack sigh in frustration before she grabs another locker from the walls and toses it into the monster gaining enough time to run. "Ok then, Let's move on"

After so much struggling and running, the four teens reach the big music room. In their way, they weren't able to see many students left in the school and those who they see where already trapped by the shadowy monsters banishing them in between there bodies.

"Do you think we are the only student left in C.H.S.?" Twilight says gasping for air for all the running and magic she has used.

"Probably, from all the students. We are the ones with magic powers" SUnset replay gaining straight to stand upright and try the music room door. "We should be safe in here" All went into the room looking around making sure no monster was there to see them. The room was empty with the exception of several musical instruments. Some of the lights were flickering and some other were completely turned off. Even though it was the middle of the day, it was dark outside because of the thick layer of storm clouds blocking the sun.

"Ho good, at least those hideous monsters haven't touched these room. Those things shouldn't be able to find this place." And as soon as Rarity said that. A strong slam was herd from the main door. Applejack eyes quickly try to cover it with her body meanwhile she gives a judging glare at Rarity. "What did I do?"

"Haven't you heard the say: Never test your luck with a raging horse?" Applejack says still trying to blocking the door.

"I don't think this is the time to point fingers Applejack" Rarity replay to the cowboy girl as she was laying down on the ground like her other three friends. All of them were executed, especially Twilight, she looks like she is about to throw up.

"But look at that, the Rainbooms are fighting among each other. Pathetic." A serious female voice was heard from between one of the corners of the room.

"And look at the princess, she seems like she is about to see her launch once again." Another voice says in between giggles. ass all of the girls turn around to see who was speaking.the two girls wearing cristal prep uniform appear with one holding a steel pipe in her hands menacingly playing with it.

"Aria!!!, Sonata!!! What are you two doing here? And where is the other Dazzling?" Sunset asks angrily rarely being able to stand up. Rarity didn't even try to stand up, Applejack was looking at them with angry on her eyes and Twilight was looking at them in confusion.

The other two girls look back at them with a neutral expression, Well Aria with an annoyed expression but that is neutral for her." Hey! Cowgirl, catch!" Aria says throwing the steel pipe at Applejack. She cath it in midair with one hand and stare in confusion at them. "So?... What are you waiting for? Use that on the door handle and help us move this piano to block the door." Aria replay with a smirk. By this time, all of them were shearing Twilight confusing expression.

Author's Note:

So... I upload another chapter of this Yugioh! fic without actually a yugioh! duel.
I never know this will be this challenging. My inspiration for this suddenly was gone for a couple of months so a was focusing on other things. I hope I get it back and I hope you like the story or do you guys prefer meaningless duels with your wifus cous I am ok with that XD.

I have (at this time) 300+ views, a comment, like 2 or 3 fav, and 4 upvotes(Thanks by the way 😀) and I have to admit... that is a little discouraging. I have no idea if this is good or bad or simply too neutral to even deserve leaving a comment. I don't want to feel an unnecessary stress writing this fic if it isn't worthwhile. I will keep writing this just fur fun none the less but my mind have other stories I want to try and I have no time to work on all of them.

Thanks again for your read and have a wonderful day.

id like duels but if you need to set the story up for them set them up.

Well, the thing is I already though two routes the story can take. One where the faith of friendship, betrayals, forgiveness and deep story is taking place, a story that will take time and over-complicate things. The other is a simple tournament arc where the fun is not if the good guys are going to win but how they are going to win. It is going to have less story and more duels and I don't know which one I like to take..

Wished this story got to continue, I am pretty interested in them.
Such as on how about Zarc be handled there.

Though it sucks that Spike is missing out on seeing all of this.
Where was he anyway? Was there any ideas/plans for him in this fic?
Just wished he got to duel too honestly.

This is the first fic I ever written so looking back at it is kind of embarrassing, if I continue with it I would probably re write it as I seen a lot of mistakes and things I could probably do better.

I actually never thought about Spike Dulling. As he is, well, a dog in this universe. How would a dog even pick up a deck?

To be honest, I probably won't pick this up again. I initially written when the anime Arc V was over but I still wanted more but then all of the sudden Konami announced Master rule 5 with the Link monsters and basically nerfing the Pendulum monsters. And just like that, my inspiration die. Why keep writing a Yu-Gi-Oh fic with rules that will soon be obsolete?

Well that sucks..
Would have love to see a story like this going.
Yeah.. really not fond about the whole Link format due to it screwed the Four Dimension Dragons over. Glad they sort of fixed that in the newer rules but still hated that Pendulums are still forced to rely on Link monsters.

As for Spike, why not just give him a human form so he can duel instead of having him be stuck as a freaking dog?
Honestly bums me out when he gets left out of stuff in crossover things, especially if its due to he's stuck as a dog in the human world because the writers thought it was funny to do that to him.
