AU: Alright people now I'm warning y'all once about this. This Shadow's dueling style shall be a bit more brutal then the other Shadows. And there will be moments will I will go off the rails and tell other yugioh authors that read this how it's done and all that. If any of that offends you. DO. NOT. READ. I will not be held accountable if anyone gets offended. Now that that's let's get on with the story

Everyone stares at Shadow with different reactions. Harley's goons stood in shock, the girls looked on in amazement from his entrance, and Harley was livid

Harley: How dare you intrude on this and trespass on these school grounds. Just who the hell do you think you are?

Harley asked causing Shadow to look a little confused

Shadow: I'm pretty sure I said I'm Shadow Pegasus. You know if you clean the shit out of your ears you might be able to hear better

Shadow said causing the girls to slap hands over their mouths to try and contain their giggles as Harley seethed in rage

Harley: What the fuck did you just say?

Harley asked through gritted teeth causing a smirk to appear on Shadow's face

Shadow: See this is exactly what I mean. I said to clean the shit out of your ears. I mean there must be huge amounts there, especially from having your head up your ass a lot of times

Shadow said as the girls couldn't hold it together anymore and fell to the floor in laughter as Harley exploded

Harley: THAT'S IT! IF YOU WANT TO DUEL THEN LETS DUEL!

Harley shouts before he gets a call on his duel disk but no image is revealed to him as the audio is still working as it is.

???: Dueling wasn't part of the plan. You were to retrieve the cards and bring them to us immediately.

The voice said causing Harley to scoff

Harley: That was your plan. But my priorities are a little different, understand? I plan to keep these rare cards for myself. Plus I need to put this fool in his place

Harley said causing the voice to get angry

???: Do not try to defy us! Report here immediately with the cards-

The voice started to yell till another voice cuts him off

???2: No, let him be.

The other voice said as it shifts to the Leo corporation observation room where both of them as a man in a suit was revealed to be one of the voices the man was known as Claude

Claude: Mr. President?

Claude asked as he turned to see a man coming up the controls, wearing a red with a blue long-sleeve shirt and white pants while wearing a pair of red glasses. This was the president of the Leo Corp: Declan Akaba

Declan: Do not interfere with Harley

Declan said causing Claude to nod as he turned back to the monitor. As Harley smirks

Harley: Now, let's get on with it.

Harley said snapping his fingers as two of his goons grabbed ahold of Zuzu and Sylvia and the third one grabbed Dina, Allie, and Trina which Yuya saw, while Shadow sent a glare at Harley who stood unphased from the glare.

Shadow: What in the world do you think you're doing fool?

Shadow asked as Yuya piped up

Yuya: Harley, tell them to let my friends go! And your cousin

Yuya said in concern as Harley grins

Harley: Your friends are perfectly safe, at least they are for the moment, until our duel gets underway, Shadow.

Harley as Shadow glares more as the gem in his item shifts to a teal color

Shadow: I may not know what you have planned but it won't work against me

Shadow said as Harley chuckled before taking out a deck of cards

Harley: You'll see. By the way, Yuya I have something for you.  I'm offering these in exchange for your Pendulum cards. I knew you'd like them, because they're worthless, like you!

Harley said as he tossed them at Yuya as Shadow's eyes shifted to a teal color at the disrespect this fool was showing his queen, while Yuya looked at the cards under her seeing someone disrespect the cards thrown to her.

Yuya: No card's worthless. But this isn't exactly a fair trade.

Yuya said as she bent down to pick 'em up causing Shadow to nod

Shadow: Well said my queen, now  I think I'll be winning your cards back.

Shadow said as he equipped a gold duel disk catching everyone's attention

Harley: Is that a golden duel disk? How much do you want for it?

Harley asked causing Shadow to laugh

Shadow: It's not for sale not like I'll sell it to someone like you. You're shitty self will only ruin its precious metal. Now I believe we have a duel to get to

Shadow said with a smirk as Harley growled before pressing a few buttons

Harley: With pleasure, I'll select the action field. Let's hope your pals aren't scared of heights. Because my choice of field will take them all sky-high! I choose Prison Tower of Darkvile!

Harley said as the arena took the appearance of an abandoned city with chains at the dead of night. Zuzu, Dina, Trina, and Allie are seen stuck at the top of a building. While Harley faces Shadow and Yuya leaning against the building, while the other two are on a separate building.

Harley: It would be a terrible waste, to have a Prison Tower without prisoners, don't you think?

Harley said while laughing as Shadow glared at him before glancing at a worried Yuya

Shadow: Stay behind me my queen I promise to protect you

Shadow said causing Yuya to look up and suddenly saw Shadow in black armor. Smiling softly as she placed a hand on him

Yuya: I'm under your protection, my knight. I trust you completely

Yuya said softly as Shadow nodded as he smiled at her causing Yuya to blush softly. Shadow then faced Harley again

Shadow: Now then

Shadow said as he equipped his deck

Shadow/Harley: Let's duel!

Shadow LPs: 4000

Harley LPs: 4000

Shadow: I'll go first. First I think I'll add a little something something to the field. I play the field spell The Seal of Orichalcos

Shadow said as he played the card a huge symbol appeared in the sky, Harley is surprised that Shadow did not go for an action card at the start of his turn he was more surprised and concerned about that card

Everyone looks as it slowly lowers to the ground

Harley: What is this? I never heard of this card before

Harley said causing Shadow to laugh

Shadow: That's cause I have the only card in existence. Now I summon to the field Archfiend Solider

Shadow said as a skeleton-like warrior appeared with a cape and drew his long sword

Archfiend Solider Atk 1900 Def 1500 lvl 4

As soon as the monster appears on the field a miniature version of the seal appears on its forehead causing its yellow eyes to glow red

Harley: What's happening to your monster?

Harley asked causing Shadow to chuckle

Shadow: Did I forget to mention that due to the seal, all my monsters gain 500 Atk points

Shadow said as Archfiend Solider Atk went to 2400

Shadow: I set two cards. You're up scum. Soldier with me.

Shadow to his monster causing the monster to nod. Shadow then picks Yuya up like a princess causing her face to turn red as Shadow and his solider took off towards the tower. Harley glares as he starts his turn

Harley: I draw

Harley said drawing one card from his deck. He sees that he just drew Timegazer Magician, which makes the young man smile knowing that he is just one more card away from the Pendulum summon.

Harley: Perfect.

Harley said as Declan's voice piped up from his duel disk

Declan: No. It's not time for that card yet.

Declan said much to Harley's annoyance

Harley: Listen, I don't know who you are but don't interfere!

Harley yells causing Shadow to narrow his eyes as he hears the argument

Declan: You will obey me.

Declan said causing Harley to scoff as he placed the stolen card in his hand before grabbing another one

Harley: Well it doesn't matter. I'll save this monster for the final blow. For now, since you have two cards in your spell/ trap area I can Special Summon Escher the Frost Vassal from my hand

Harley said as a blue robot appears in a meditative state as he grabs another card

Escher the Frost Vassal Atk/800 def/1000 Lvl 4

Harley: And for backup, I summon Ice Knight

Harley said as a more watery version of Escher with a red cape flipped onto the field wielding a lance

Ice Knight Atk/1300 Def/1200 Lvl 4

Harley: Its effect now activates it gains 400 Atk for each Aqua monster in my control. And I count two

Harley said as Ice Knight Atk increased to 2100

Harley: and that's not all Ice Knight has another effect. I can normal summon a water monster in addition to my normal summon. And I chose this. I tribute my Escher the Frost Vassal to summon to Tribute summon Mobius the Frost Monarch!

Harley said as the robot was destroyed and in its place stood an icy knight with a blue cape

Mobius the Frost Monarch Atk/2400 Def/1000 Lvl 6

Harley: Mobius effect now activate! When this card is Tribute summoned, I can target up to 2 more cards in the Spell/Trap Zone, and destroy them. So you can say goodbye to two of your facedown cards! Blizzard Destruction!

Harley said however Shadow cuts him off

Shadow: Before that happens I activate my trap threatening roar. With it, you can't attack for the rest of this turn

Shadow said causing Harley to scowl as his monster unleashed its attack and destroyed the other facedown. Harley then gets grabbed by his Monarch before taking off after Shadow and his Soldier. Nearing the bridge Yuya spots an action card

Yuya: Shadow quick grab that action card

Yuya said but to both her and Harley's surprise he and his monster passed it without even glancing at it

Yuya/Harley: You're not going after the action card?

They both asked as Shadow chuckles while looking down at Yuya

Shadow: I count on my deck instead of some random spells across the field my queen

Shadow said causing Yuya to blush before Shadow sent a glare over his shoulder at Harley

Shadow: Not to mention this is Scumbag's field you honestly think I trust anything on a opponent's turf

Shadow states causing Harley to smirk

Harley: Seems like you're not just talk. You're right, if you did pull and reveal that action card it would have set off a trap or in this case an Action trap card.

Harley said as Shadow stopped in front of the tower where the prisoners are held and set Yuya down much to her disappointment

Yuya: why do I suddenly feel so cold?

Yuya thought as she stood behind Shadow as they saw Harley arrive with his monsters. Shadow grabs a card from his deck

Shadow: Now then I believe it was my turn. I draw! I active Card of Sanctity with it we're both allowed to draw until we have six cards in hand

Shadow said as he drew 6 cards while Harley drew 3

Shadow: Now I summon to field Double Coston

Shadow said as two black ghosts popped out from the ground with blue tongues sticking out

Double Coston Atk/ 1700 Def/ 1650 Lvl 4

And like before the mark appeared on their foreheads as their eyes glowed red before their Atk increased to 2200

Shadow: I placed two cards facedown and end my turn

Shadow said confusing everyone who was watching. Harley however smirks and laughs

Harley: All that and you still don't attack?!

Harley asks while laughing causing Shadow to glare

Shadow: Man shut your ugly face up and continue

Shadow causing Harley to stop laughing and glare at Shadow

Harley: I'm tired of your mouth. I draw!

Harley said drawing a card before looking at it and smirking

Declan: You have done well, Harley

Harley: And this card will help put you in your place.  I tribute my level four Ice Knight to play the spell tribute trade, it lets me add the monster that is one level higher than the tributed monster

Harley said as his knight burst into pixels. His deck automatic shuffle system activates to bring the selected card pop out as he grabs it and shows them.

Harley: I add stargazer magician to my hand.

Harley said with a smirk. This made Yuya worried to see her pendulum card in his hand and nervous if he could pull it off.

Yuya: But he needs two pendulum monsters in his hand to pendulum summon.

Yuya said with a concerned look as Shadow glanced at her. Having heard what Yuya had said, made Harley smirk while laughing

Harley: True, but it's a good thing I planned ahead.

Harley said In between laughs. This brought Yuya's attention, but Shadow narrowed his eyes

Shadow: So you drew the timegazer magician from the start of the duel.

Shadow said the obvious causing Harley to smirk more

Harley: That's correct. I had the card from the start.

Harley said causing Yuya to let out a squeak of surprise and causing Shadow to glance at her in confusion

Harley: It is quite rare for someone special as me to have these special cards as these

Harley smirked before laughing like a villain, which caused Shadow to narrow his eyes

Shadow: Fool calls that a evil laugh. I heard better from weevil. And even then it barely is compared to that of an injured kitten

Shadow thought as he looked at Harley who was cut off by Declan

Declan: Set the pendulum cards. You will start with scale one stargazer magician.

Declan said causing Harley to clear his throat and grab the card.

Harley: I use Scale One, Stargazer Magician.

Harley said holding the card in question as Yuya looked at this with a worried look.

Yuya: No way can he really do it, but I thought I'm?

Yuya said sadly causing Shadow to glare at Harley who grabbed the next card

Declan: And scale eight timegazer magician

Declan said causing Harley to nod and repeated

Harley: And scale eight timegazer magician

Harley said as he held the two cards.

Declan/Harley: To set the pendulum scale

Both said in unison as Harley placed the two cards at the edge of the duel disk and then the word pendulum appeared as The two magicians appeared as the light column rising up.

Stargazer magician

Scale: 1

Timegazer magician

Scale: 8

Declan/Harley: PENDULUM-what the?

They both said till they noticed that both magicians were destroyed

Declan: What happened? What did you do?

Declan asked in confusion causing Harley to look at his duel disk missing the smirk on Shadow's face

Shadow: How about we show them a true evil laugh my bandit queen?

Shadow thought as he glanced at a girl with long white hair, wearing a school girl's uniform with a pink jacket tied around her waist letting her necklace be seen

Bakuri: We shall my dark knight.

Bakuri said placing a hand on top of his shackle

Harley: Me? I did exactly what you told me what did you do?

Harley asked and before anyone could say anything they could hear evil laughter. Slowly turning their heads Yuya and Harley both saw that it was Shadow who was laughing as a skeletal monster with a lance was now on his field

Shadow: You thought it was your fault for this. When in truth it was me Shadow.  (And before anyone even asks. I had to. The opportunity was too good to pass up)

Shadow said as Harley managed to get his nerves back

Harley: What did you do?

Harley asked as Shadow smirks

Shadow: Simple you fool it's true those cards count as monsters, but while they're in your back row all they are is spells. This is where Beiige comes in

Shadow said gesturing to the fiend in front of him

Beiige, Vanguard of Dark World Atk/ 1600 Def/ 1300 Lvl 4

Shadow: You see I used Beiige here to activate my spell. A quick spell called Twin Twisters. You see it allows me to destroy up to two spell/trap cards on the field. Which in turn triggers Beiige effect, since it was discarded I can automatically summon him

Shadow explains as the seal appears on Beiige causing his atk to go to 2100. Harley glares at him

Harley: So what if you destroyed my Pendulum I can still take you down. I Tribute Mobius the Frost Monarch to Tribute summon Mobius the Mega Monarch!

Harley said as the icy knight glowed and grew to giant size

Mobius the Mega Monarch Atk/2800 Def/1000 Lvl 8

Harley: His effect-

Shadow: is negated due to me banishing my Breakthrough Skill trap card that's in the grave

Shadow said cutting Harley off as he remembered that was the other card that went to the grave when he summoned his frost monarch

Harley: Whatever he can still cause damage. Mobius attack and destroy his Beiige. Imperial Charge

Harley said as Mobius charged at Beiige and attacked kicking up a cloud in the process. Harley starts laughing thinking he actually did something. That quickly went away when the cloud parted revealing Mobius impaled on Beiige's lance

Harley: What?! How?!

Harley asked causing Shadow to laugh again

Shadow: That's the cause of my last card. A little Ego boost to increase Beiige Atk

Shadow said as Beiige Atk went to 3100. Mobius soon turns to dust causing Harley's LP to drop to 3700. Harley looks away

Harley: I end my turn

Harley said as Shadow grabs a card

Shadow: I Draw! I play Ancient Rules. With it, I summon to the Field Red Eyes Black Dragon!

Shadow said as everyone's eyes widened when they saw the legendary dragon appearing on his field with a roar

Red Eyes Black Dragon: Atk/2400 Def/ 2000 Lvl 7

Harley: You have one of the legendary monsters in your deck?

Harley asked the question on everyone's mind which in turn caused Shadow to smirk

Shadow: Who said I had only one?

Shadow asked causing everyone to become to be in complete shock. Who knows how many legendary beasts he has in his deck. Harley merely chuckles

Harley: We'll if I'm to be defeated it'll be an honor to fall at the claws of such a legend

Harley said causing Shadow to chuckle

Shadow: Oh I didn't summon her to take you down

Shadow much to everyone's surprise, but it soon became clear when Shadow clicked his tongue causing the dragon to look at him. Shadow points to the top of the tower

Shadow: Fetch

Shadow said simply causing the dragon to nod as she went to grab the prisoners. Shadow grabs a card that glows completely dark

Shadow: This is the being that shall defeat you

Shadow said as the card sent a strong aura out causing several computers to explode shocking Claude

Claude: Sir the summoning energy coming from that card is ve-GAAAH!!.

The Employee yelled with a shocked look before he screamed due to the monitors began to blow up because of the energy being detected much to Declan's shock.

Declan: SHUT DOWN THE DETECTION SYSTEM NOW!!!

Declan orders as the remaining monitors were shut off. Declan then looks at the card Shadow is holding while narrowing his eyes as Claude walks up next to him

Claude: Sir, what kind of monster can release this much summoning energy while still in card form

Claude asked nervously as Declan looks at Shadow's monsters

Declan: We're about to find out

Declan said looking at the monitor as the duel continued

Shadow: I tribute both Beiige and Coston in order to tribute summon

Shadow said as a dark geyser erupted from the ground as a huge portal opened up behind him, his monsters turned to dark energy and went into the portal. A giant green hand with bone armor with claws at the end rises out of the portal before slamming down and grabbing the ground. Everyone was nervous as the winds pick up and lightning was heard

Shadow: one of the dark deities arise from your slumber. Appear now The Wicked Dreadroot!

Shadow said as the being shot itself into the sky revealing its fiendish glory

The Wicked Dreadroot Atk/ 4000 Def/ 4000 Lvl 10

Shadow: Now Dreadroot end this fool, Fist of Devastation!

Shadow calls out as Dreadroot closed and swung his fist at Harley sending him into the wall and sending his LPs to 0. Shadow then started walking to the down duelist as he looks up to the approaching male with a glare

Harley: So you won. Big deal doesn't mean I'm giving you the cards

Harley said causing Shadow to smirk as he held up the two magicians as Harley eyes widen

Shadow: Don't have to. Took em myself

Shadow said as Harley growls and swung his fist at the knight only for him to hit a barrier of some kind. Looking down he saw the seal of Orichalcos around him

Harley: What is the meaning of this?

Harley asked causing Shadow to laugh as he looks along with everyone else including a certain spy

Shadow: Did I forget to Mention? When the Orichalos is activated the loser doesn't just lose the duel but also their soul

Shadow said causing everyone's eyes to widen. And before another word was said the barrier and seal disappeared. Harley fell to the ground his eyes dulled and next to him was a Orichalos card with his picture behind the seal. Shadow then picks up Harley's that was still in the middle of the call with Declan

Shadow: Declan Akaba

Shadow said sending a chill up Declan's spine. Not only because of how Shadow said his name, but automatically knew he was the one behind this. Before he could say anything, Shadow continued

Shadow: Oh I know you don't know me, but I know you. And I know you are the one who sent this mutt after my queen. You better hope you don't come to meet me. Because the moment you come slithering out of your hole and challenge me to a duel is when I make you suffer for even thinking of taking what rightfully belongs to my queen. And I promise you, what I did to this mutt will pale in comparison to what I plan on doing to you

Shadow said dropping the duel disk. His eyes and gem went back to normal as he looks back at Yuya and her friends. Shadow walks up and hands Yuya her magicians back. Yuya looks up to him

Shadow: Next time be careful with who you let hold your belongings. I shall take my leave

Shadow said turning around before suddenly feeling two hands grabs his right one. Looking back he saw Yuya with a blush on her face. Before he could say anything Yuya looks up at him with tears in her eyes

Yuya: Meeting you on the bridge was the happiest I felt since my father disappeared. As soon as you left I was more alone then I ever felt. I knew you had a way of watching me, but that didn't stop the feeling. I don't care how you duel. I don't care about is get like that. All care about is if you are my dark knight, then your queen wants you at her side. Please?

Yuya asked as she held his hand up in front of her chest as the tears stream down her face. Yuya then felt Shadow placed his other hand on her causing her to open her eyes to see a smile on his face

Shadow: Nothing would make me happier, my magi queen

Shadow said as Yuya saw him in black armor again as he looked down at her. Suddenly the moment was ruined by a cyan hair girl

???: That was so cool!

She said and immediately Yuya clung to Shadow's arm out of instinct before looking at the girl

Yuya: Hey, you're that girl I saw earlier.

Yuya said with a surprise look causing the young girl to smile

Sora: Yep, name Sora shiunin. Nice to meet ya.

Sora said with a smile. Then she looked at Sora and got close to him.

Sora: But you can call me Sora~

Sora said with  a bit of lust in her tone which in turn made Yuya to clings to his arm more as she, Zuzu, and even Sylvia glared at her.

Yuya: Aren't you a student of LDS?

Yuya asked with a pouty expression as Sora shook her head.

Sora: I was planning to, but after seeing his duel with that scumbag, I decided that you and him will be my teachers

Sora said and before Yuya could say anything she heard Shadow chuckling

Shadow: My Queen probably wouldn't accept. I however would be more then happy to teach you

Shadow said much to Sora's delight and the other girls shock. Shadow then placed a hand on and rubs Sora's head causing her to blush and giggle, while Yuya was staring at her with a glare and a red murderous aura surrounded her. Shadow then looks at Yuya before suddenly kissing her cheek causing her face to explode in a blush and for the rest to look on with shock looks as Shadow chuckles

Shadow: Just like the others, a little affection jester and they're all deredere.

Shadow thought with a smile as he cups her chin causing her to look into his eyes

Shadow: Be a good queen and let me have a few words with my student. Alone

Shadow said causing her to nod her head as she walks like she was in trance out with her friends and Sylvia. As soon as they left Shadow immediately grabs Sora by her throat and slams her in the wall causing cracks to form. Sora looks to see that he was looking at her with a neutral expression on his face but the moment she her eyes meet his she saw a unhinged fury behind them.

Sora: W-what-

Sora started to asked before Shadow cuts her off

Shadow: I suggest that you stop that lie you were about to tell me on what you did wrong. You know exactly what you did you Academy Spy

Shadow said causing Sora's eyes to widen in complete shock

Shadow: I've been around long enough to see a fake act of kindness when I see it. I have one for both you and your academy. Should I see any of you try to hurt my Queen or those close her I will hunt you down and exterminate you like the scum you are. This I vow

Shadow said before dropping her to the ground. Shadow then heads to join up with his queen a dark aura formed around him as he walks
