Atsuko had now realised what she had gotten herself into, and swiftly picked up her cards.
"Hey, what're you doing, we have a match!" Tai shouted at her angrily.
"Shut up, you're part of the Яeverse! Leave me alone...!!" Atsuko then started to sprint away from the three there on.
"Shit..." Tai muttered. "I'm going after her, I'm not going back empty handed."
"Do it dude. If I can Яeverse one, you can too." Kane said as he looked at Ava.
"What should I do now?" She asked.
"You can come with me." Kane said. "This way," He pointed in a direction, which was outside.

Outside, Atsuko sprinted away from the library as fast as she could, angry that she let this happen to Ava. On her way, she passed Backlion and Rino, and noticed Rino had strange red markings.
"I felt something." Rino said in a monotone.
"That's her. Atsuko Kurenai, the Blaster Queen and holder of Psyqualia." Backlion said simply.
"Is she strong?" He clicked his finger joints once more.
"Very."
Rino then started to follow her in a mindless trance.

(Insert opening here)

Ryu grumbled as he didn't bring a coat when meeting with Hiyori, as he started to get covered in the rain.
"This is bs..." He sighed as he walked towards the tent where Hiyori was setting up her show. "Hey, Hiyori." He called out, walking towards her, and entering the tent as the rain left him be. The tent itself was dark blue, and was held up by large metal bars. Hiyori and a small group were setting up the tent, via putting seats up, getting the stage ready, lighting, etc. Ryu walked over to Hiyori who was backstage and sorting out her playing cards for her magic tricks. "Sis." He said.
"Hm? Ryu?" Hiyori looked over to him, surprised he was here.
"You dropped this card while rushing here. Didn't know you played Vanguard, let alone have some exclusive unit..." Ryu mumbled.
"Ah, my whole deck is also exclusive."
"Damn, it's just like the Stardust Knights, Ancient Flames..." Ryu muttered, sighing. "How'd you get it anyways?"
"It was in my bag someday. Someone must've slipped it in as a gift as a note with thanks on it was attached." Hiyori explained.
"Jeez, they gave away their whole exclusive deck to you... That's either suspicious or dumb."
"Eh, I'll take it." Hiyori smiled.

After setting up, some people started to come in, and there was a decent crowd. Among them, there was Kyle and Ryu. A man with black swept hair to the left, black eyes, a black jacket, a white undershirt and black denim jeans, with some fingerless gloves. He also had black sneakers with white laces. He was Kotaro Nogami.
"Uh, hello!" Hiyori grinned as she spoke into a microphone attached to her ear. "Welcome to my magic show, and thank you for coming! Today, I'll be presenting three tricks, and I'll have one Cardfight with someone. How does that sound? So, for our first trick, I'll need two volunteers." A young man with black swept hair to the left, black eyes, a black jacket, a white undershirt and black denim jeans, with some fingerless gloves put his hand up. He also had black sneakers with white laces. Kyle put his hand up aswell.
"Great, what're you two names?" Hiyori asked.
"Kotaro Nogami." The black haired boy said.
"Kyle Black." Kyle replied.
"Okay! So, I'm just gonna have you two be used for my trick. So, Kotaro, pick a card." Hiyori shuffled her deck and showed Kotaro a selection.
"Okay." He took a card near the back.
"Kyle, pick a card."
Kyle took a card from the middle.
"Okay, remember the cards. I'm going to shuffle my deck," Hiyori riffled her deck and cut it in half. "Kotaro, put it here." He put the card in the middle. Hiyori shuffled her deck, and cut again. "Kyle." He put his card there. Hiyori shuffled the deck once more. "Okay, guys, so we all can see that the cards have a red backing?" She showed it off to the audience.
"Yep." The two nodded.
"Well, what if I told you, I could guess your card, purely on the back of the card." Hiyori fanned the deck out, and it revealed there were two cards with a blue coloured backing. "Hm, let's see... This card," She pointed at the one on the far right. "Is Kotaro's. The others is Kyle's card. So, with that, Kotaro, your card was the 5 of Spades, and Kyle, your card was the Queen of Clovers."
"Yes." The two nodded.
"And," Hiyori flipped the cards, and they revealed Queen of Clovers, and the 5 of Spades. "Ta da!"
"Huh, that's pretty cool..." Kyle nodded.
"How'd she do that...?" Kotaro was in awe.
"However, I also teleported my cards to someone in the audience. My step-brother Ryu, should have them."
"Eh, you gave me cards?" Ryu raised a brow as he looked around.
"Check your pockets."
He did so, and pulled out a Queen of Clovers and 5 of Spades, both with red backings.
"...what the fuck..." He was confused himself.
"And, that was trick one people!" Hiyori clapped. "Okay, so for this next trick, I'll need only one of you, so Kyle, sit down, and Kotaro, we'll be doing some mind games.
"Alright." He nodded.
"So, I have a dictionary here. Kotaro, open to a random page."
He opened the book, around half way.
"Okay, I'm not allowed too look, so just choose either page." Hiyori looked away. Kotaro pointed at a page. "Choose a random word and take the page number, and remember them both." He did so. The page was 362, and the word was Gas. (The accuracy of this is probably wrong. - Author) Kotaro said,
"What now?"
"I'll close the book." Hiyori shut the book closed and threw it into the crowd, "And I'll get rid of it. Okay, so, what if I told you my deck could guess the page number, word, and much more?!" She smiled.
"That'd be dumb." Kotaro ruffled his hair. "Or impossible."
"Well, this pack of green back cards have some letters and numbers on them. What I find weird is that the number the cards have together and the letters that spell your word are together. Let's see." She opened the deck, and showed off the cards. A G, A and S were next to each other, while 3, 6 and 2 were also together. "Not only that," She flipped the cards, all being the Ace of Hearts, 2 of Hearts, 3 of Hearts, 4 of Hearts, 5 of Hearts and 6 of Hearts, one after another. "But my deck is also in order." The audience started to applaud Hiyori for the trick.
"Well then... That's just... Creepy." Kotaro walked off stage as he clapped for her.
"Okay! So, Kyle, do you play vanguard?" She asked. He nodded his head. "Let's have a match." She smirked.

"Stand up, the, Vanguard!" The two declared.
"Star-vader, Chaos Starter Dracokid!" Kyle shouted, his vanguard circle expanding red.
"Cheerful Ringmaster!" Hiyori declared, her vanguard circle expanding pale lilac.
"I'll take the first move to lockdown on your combos! Stand and draw, I ride, Destiny Dealer and move Chaos Starter, and end."

"Stand and draw." Kyle looked over his hand. "This girl will be tricky to play against. A mirage deck versus a control deck which needs rear-guards, doesn't look pretty. I need to lock units early to get some form of advantage..." "I ride, Duskblade and call Iron and Zinc. Boosted by Zinc, Iron! (9000 > 16000)"
"I no guard! (Crimson Fang Dual Horn)"
"Vanguard! (9000 > 14000)"
"No guard aswell."
"Drive check. (Freezeray Dragon)" Kyle smirked.
"Lucky you..." Hiyori rolled her eyes. (Kitten Juggler) "Draw, everything to vanguard and draw."

"Now, it's my turn." Kyle drew a card. "RAGE A COLD STORM OVER THIS WORLD AND LOCK DOWN ANYTHING THAT HITS THE RAGE OF THE FREEZERAY DRAGON! RIDE, THE VANGUARD, STAR-VADER, FREEZERAY DRAGON!!" Kyle shouted, the vanguard circle expanding blackish-dark blue.

Kinjuzo was watching some matches during the tournament. "Oh, both players are cute..." He was viewing Mai vs Riku. "Maybe Yza could date one of these two... Riku, Riku..." He went on Google and searched her name. "Well shit. She has a boyfriend. Uh, let's see, Mai, Mai... Oh, she's single!" He cheered excitedly. "I'm gonna find out where she lives!!" He shouted loudly.
"Find out where who lives?" Ignis shouted back.
"Mai Heatwave!" Kinjuzo shouted back.
"Really? Why?" Ignis shouted back.
"Because I wanna get to know her!" He opened the door and started walking downstairs.
"Oh, your girlfriend hunting or something?" He shouted back. "I have a nice contact list aswell if your interested."
"Nah, its fine!" Kinjuzo went into the living room where Ignis was watching a movie. "Besides, my gut is telling me she's perfect." He grinned.
"Alight, good luck, have fun, don't forget the condoms!" Ignis said. Kinjuzo stifled a laugh and nodded, before leaving.

"Well... I don't- I don't even know where she lives dammit!!" Kinjuzo growled. "Well... She might be in a card shop... Maybe even her brother!!" He walked down the street, frustrated. He was on Google, trying to find any information about Mai. That's when he stumbled on an interview with her. "Oh?"

Interview with Gold Paladin user Mai Heatwave from the Tournament!

Interviewer: So, Mai, why'd you run GP?
Mai: Well, to be honest, since I was a Satanist, I used Blue Flames as they are like Satan's flames. But when G rolled round, I gave it to my brother Dax to use a Gurguit deck instead as I found Gurguit pretty cool and interesting, especially with the GB2.

Interviewer: Wow, a Satanist? That's pretty dark for a pretty cute girl.
Mai: Really?
Interviewer: Yeah, people on the net are all over you!
Mai: So they like people who look like a minor? Jail is that way, creeps.
Interviewer: Well, more in a Fan way, rather than liking your actual appearance. Maybe your personality as well? It's pretty unique.
Mai: Hm, I see,

Interviewer: So, you live in United Sanctuary right?
Mai: Nope, Star Gate.
Interviewer: Oh, I see! What type of house?
Mai: Me and my brother shares an apartment, actually. Having an apartment is to some extent worse than a house... But it has a lower cost.
Interviewer: What incest goes on?
Mai: This interview is going... Weird.
Interviewer: Jesting, jesting.

Interviewer: Mind posting your deck list?
Mai: Okay, so this is what I use: For Grade 0, I run Coel as my starter because it can help get more cards on the field. Then 8 crits, Flame of Victory and Scarface, 4 Gerrie because countercharge and soulcharge engine, and four Curable Angel because if you don't run heals then I don't know what you're building anymore. For G1, I use 4 Gorboduc to help get Gurguit and pitch it to stride. Four Candace because GB2 synergy, 4 Jeffrey because draw power, two Horsa for powerlines and Maleagant tech for unflip. I then use for my G2, 4 Henrinus because he helps make columns, and magic numbers, 3 Marcia to unflip, and 3 Kinarius for the 13k beatstick and emergency sup call. For G3, 3 OG Gurguit, main ride target, 2 new Gurguit because maybe it can be useful with the guard skill, and 3 Dawnngal for boost skill, 10k boosters are fun. Strides, 2 Holy Gurguit, 3 Sunrise Gurguit, 2 Build Peak, 4 Glorious Reigning, 1 Ebraucus and then finally, 2 Sleimy Flare and 2 Reia for G Guards.

"Oh, a Star Gate apartment huh? I've got this." Kinjuzo smirked. The rain continued to pour, as Kinjuzo didn't mind the rain patting on his hair.

================================

A/N

First off, Kotaro belongs to KRX350 . Finally, a chapter...

So, fights are a bit tedious to write (especially if you use Fan made cards) so Turn 68 might take awhile...

But other than that, Question of the Turn, who will win?

That's all, Fox out!
