This chapter is written in Kizari's POV

Quiet..

Disgusting..

Odd..

The three words that repeatedly told me at the place I went to; The alleyway. I saw a door beside a dumpster it was slightly open.

How stupid to leave an open door.

Opening the rusty giant squeaking silver metal door I felt a cold sensation of wind blew against my face and hair. The place seems empty.

"A visitor?"

A voice out of nowhere questioned making me flinch.

"who's there?" I asked coldly glaring at all angles. If I'm honest the voice is familiar.

"Kizacchi I'm surprised you don't know." A man with red hair and a blue fox Japanese authentic mask.

"Oh you." I roll my eyes as he took off his mask. It was the sly traitor; Masaru.

"Yeee it's me, perfect timing for you to come Kizacchi. I was heading over to your place."

"Why?"

"You know something I want to know."

I could feel my heart beating faster and faster with what each word he meant.

"What do you know about Shibaru?"

"Isn't it just that brat's deck?" I scoffed lightly crossing my arms.

"I know you know more than that." Masaru place his mask at the side of his deck. "Tell me, Did you gave it to her?"

My eyes squinted, my palms are sweaty as my legs began to shake quite violently. How does he know? What are his connections?

"That look on your faces tells it all." Masaru laughed before sitting down at a cardboard box that was laying around. "Damn Kizacchi you're bad at keeping secrets."

"Shut up idiot!" I yelled and gritted my teeth.

"Say may I know more?"

"Tch n-no!"

I have to make an excuse soon, I need an idea..

"Say, what about I cardfight for it?"

Bingo.

"A match? You've gotta be kidding, you know you'll lose." I taunted at him with a smirk.

"Oh? What if I win~?"

"You run Chronofang ffs."

"You saw my match at the café and I won, let's just fight I need things to be cleared up." Masaru pressed a red button as a fight table arises from the ground.

What in the name of fuck is that? Don't they have a GIRS system or just a normal table at least?

"Put the gloves on. It's a motion figure system." He put on the glove that has a red gem on the middle its wire is connected to the table.

"Motion figure what?"

"System, see the former 'king' isn't really into the new system shit so they still kept the old one."

"so.. He's antique?" I settle down my deck and starter then put on the same glove Masaru's wearing.

"Yeah pretty much." He said drawing five cards as I do the same.

"Ready?" he asked and I just nodded.

"Stand Up Vanguard!"

"The Vanguard!" I added as we got transported

I was slightly surprise at the little white gearoid or Time Beast whatever you call it.

"Battle Sister, Kipferl! (5000)" I turn back to see a small girl in a blue cloak that resembles a nun.

So.. It's a discount GIRS system.

"Ladies first."

"I draw and ride Battle Sister, Taffy (7000) moving Kipferl and end."

"I draw and ride Pulsar Tamer, Zanbiia! (7000) moving Dran back. Attack! (7000 > 12000)"

"I don't guard."

"Drive trigger check! (Pulsar, Hypnosis Sheep) stand trigger, I give all effects to Zanbiia (12000 > 17000)."

"Damage check (One Advantage Miko, Nanase) no trigg- mmph.." I gripped on the side of the table hissing in pain when my damage zone . "why does it..?"

"Yeah that happens. Annoying? I know, with these." He points towards the glove on his right hand. "you deal with the consequences that your units felt."

So basically I get stung whenever I do a damage check hm?

"Mkay then." I blankly said staring at my damage zone.

"Stand and draw, I ride Battle Sister, Sable (9000) I call Battle Sister Macaron (9000) next I call Battle Sister, Baumkuchen (7000)" I reveal a Florentine that's been sitting in my hand for the first draw then place it down at the drop zone. I took my deck and look through it for a Madeline, revealing it and putting it at my hand then shuffle my deck.

"You know you should've search Madeline befo-"

"Baumkuchen boost, Macaron attacks first, her skill grants another 3000 since I have a Battle Sister vanguard. (9000 > 12000 > 19000)" I cut him off.

"Hmpf, rude. I don't guard (Chronojet Dragon Z)" When he place the card at his damage zone he squinted and squirm slightly letting a breath out. He seems 'immune' to it I guess or he's just scared to be called out a wimp.

"You think I care about a scumbag traitor?" I gave him a cold and blunt expression before turning my card sideways. "Sable! (9000 > 14000)"

"I'm not guarding."

"Drive check. (Efficient Carp) stand trigger, all effects to Macaron (9000 > 14000 [^])"

"D-damage.. (Pulsar, Merry Block Dragon)" He flinched as his face cringed.

"Pretending to not feel it? Tsk. Macaron! (9000 > 15000 > 17000)"

"Damage check. (Time Etching Maiden, Uluru) a heal trigger on time." He sighed in relief taking Merry Block and place it on the drop zone.

"I end my turn."

"Stand and draw, I ride Pulsar, Metal Party Dragon! (10000) Dran Z's skill I bind him and look at the top 5 cards of the deck.. I put Arka to my hand."

a complete guard huh..

"I attack with Metal Party! (10000)"

"No guard."

"Drive check! (Pulsar Tamer, Lugal-Ure) no trigger."

"Damage check (Battle Sister, Taffy)" I was a bit hesitant when putting it to the damage zone and when I did I got a small stung, but it felt very painful.

"I end my turn."

"Stand and draw, I ride Battle Sister Madeline (11000) I call Battle Sister Rusk (7000) I attack with Rusk her ability, I soulblast and add 3000 (7000 > 10000)"

"I guard that with Chronodoze Sheep! (10000 > 15000)"

''My vanguard is next (11000 > 16000)''

"I won't be guarding."

"Twin drive check (Battle Sister, Ginger) it's a critical trigger, critical to Madeline (16000/2 🌟) and power to Macaron (14000) the second check (Battle Sister, Sable) nothing."

"Damage checks! (Pulsar, Bombard Hog) a critical trigger, I give the effects to my vanguard! (15000) the second (Chronojet Dragon Z)" He place the two damage and flinched.

"Macaron! (14000 > 17000)"

"Transit Dragon! (15000 > 20000)"

"Turn end."

"I stand and draw, I ride, Chronojet Dragon G! (11000)" He then slammed Lugal-Ure and Zanbiia to the drop zone. “Liberating the generation zone! Metapulsar, Split Pegasus! (26000) stride skill, I call Pulsar, Spearhead Unicorn! (9000) and time leap it to Chronofang Tiger G! (11000) now with Pegasus' ability.” he turn over a damage face down and flip another copy of Pegasus on his G-zone. “sending Tiger to the bottom of my deck and I'll call Pulsar, Metal Party Dragon! (10000) and Manish! (9000). All of my ZTB in my front row gets 1000 power since I have a Pegasus face-up (11000) (27000) (10000) Pegasus! (27000)”

“I don't guard.”

“Triple drive! (Heart Thump Worker. Chronojet Dragon G. Time Etching Maiden, Uluru) a heal and critical trigger, critical to Pegasus (27000/2 🌟) and the power to Manish and Metal Party! (10000 > 15000) (10000 > 14000) recovering one.” he put the faced down card to the drop zone.

“Checking for the damage triggers. (Battle Sister, Marmalade. Battle Sister, Baumkuchen) nothing there.” I gritted my teeth when the sentinel was place. I could feel the stinging sensation that these gloves gave, honestly the more damage I take it hurts more.

“Metal Party will attack the vanguard! (15000)”

“Generation Guard, Dark Element, Dizmel (26000)” 

“Manish! His skill he gains 2000 for each card in the bind zone! (18000)”

“Carp! (21000)”

“After the battle I bind Manish. I end.”

“Stand and draw, generation stride.” I drop a Baumkuchen. “Excite Battle Sister, Stollen! (26000) stride skill, my vanguard gets an ability. Moving Rusk back, I call Sable (9000) Sable's ability, I can soulblast and draw.” I drew a card and smirked. Just what I need. “Stollen's effect, counterblast and flip another copy of Stollen. Soulcharge. I'll check the top card for each Battle Sisters on my field that'll be 5.” I took the top 5 cards and observe them.

Hmm.. Muffin, Polvoron, Taffy, Carp, Nanase..

“Putting these three on-top and I'll place the other three to the bottom. Stollen's generation break 3! All Battle Sister rear-guards gets 3000. Sable will attack first with a boost from Rusk. (9000 > 12000 > 22000)”

“Magic number huh? I don't guard. (Pulsar Tamer, Lugal-Ure)” he bit down his bottom lip trying to endure the pain.

“Stollen! With Kipferl's boost (26000 > 34000)”

“Arka!” He discarded Thump Worker.

“Triple Drive (Battle Sister, Muffin. Battle Sister, Palvoron. Efficient Carp) heal power and critical effects goes to Macaron. Standing Sable and giving her the power. Macaron attack. (32000/2 🌟)” she put Marmalade to the drop zone.

“Generation Guard! Pulsar Saver, Ilishu! (26000) her skill soulblast, adding 5000 to the shield (26000 > 31000) and I'll add Chronodoze Sheep (31000 > 36000)”

“Sable (12000 > 17000)”

“Generation Guard. Another Ilishu! (26000) not gonna use her skill.”

“Then I end my turn.” it's obvious he's setting up for Heritage next turn. I looked at my hand then to his. I may be able to survive.

“Stand and draw, liberating the generation zone! Chronovisor Heritage! (26000) stride skill, I'll call Lugal-Ure! (9000) and timeleap Metal Party to call Chronofang Tiger G! (11000) battle! Lugal-Ure attacks! Since I have a ZTB vanguard add 2000! (9000 > 11000)”

“I don't guard. (Battle Sister Macaron)” I slam the side of the table and gritted my teeth.

“You're paying if this table breaks.” he rotated his Chronovisor sideways.

“Generation Guard! Sun of Eternity, Amaterasu! (26000 > 36000) binding two heals to soulcharge (Battle Sister, Sable) Soulcharge again (Battle Sister, Ginger) and looking at the top card.. Leaving it there. Adding Muffin (36000 > 46000)”

“Triple Drive! (Pulsar Tamer, Manish. Chronojet Dragon Z) a grade 3 activating Lugal-Ure's skill and timeleap! Chronofang Tiger G! (11000 > 13000) third (Heart Thump Worker) critical trigger all effects to right Chronofang (13000 > 16000/2 🌟) Chronofang Tiger on the right! (18000/2 🌟)”

I peaked at my hand and put Battle Sister Ginger to the guardian circle for a 21000 shield.

“Chronofang's ability, soulblast and bind the other Fang to send Macaron to the bottom of the deck!” he pointed at Macaron as she got send to the bottom of the deck. “Turn end.. But wait.. I put put all ZTB face down and stride! Chronovisor Heritage! (26000) and.. uhm..” He seem confused, losing all of his face up meaning generation breaks.

Looks like most of his cards in hand are GBs huh? Oh what am I saying all of his units are.

“I-I'll call Heart Thump (4000) boosted by Thump, Heritage! Thump's skill to the soul and I draw and add 5000 to Heritage! (26000 > 31000)”

“Marmalade! Her ability, I can draw a card since I have 3 and less cards.”

“Triple Drive! (Pulsar, Metal Party Dragon. Pulsar, Merry Block Dragon. Time Etching Maiden, Uluru) heal trigger, I'll recover one and the power to Chronofang. Fang attacks! (16000)”

I place down the card face up to the damage zone and almost screamed. The pain was worse than the other ones, a sign that you're cornered.

“I end my turn.”

“Stand and draw, generation stride, Still Water Festival Deity, Ichikishima (26000) Ichikishima's ability, flip another Ichikishima, soulblast and counterblast, drawing two. I call One Advantage Miko, Nanase (9000) she gains 1000 for each card in my hand that'll be.. 6000 (9000 > 15000) Ichikishima's other ability, I'll turn Kamususanoo and you can't guard with grade 0s nor g-guardians.”

His eyes widened he let out a low scowl. Damn animal.

“Kipferl to the soul adding 3000 to all of my Battle Sister units on the field. Nanase attacks! (25000)”

“Hmm I won't guard that. (Pulsar, Transit Dragon)” He bit his bottom lip when the card was placed to the damage zone.

“When Nanase makes a successful attack I can counterblast and soulblast looking at the top two cards I put one to hand.” I chose Baumkuchen then put the other card to the bottom.

“I attack with Ichikishima (26000)”

“hmm.. I won't guard.”

“Triple Drive. (Efficient Carp. Battle Sister, Madeline. Battle Sister, Taffy) lucky, stand trigger, giving all effects to Nanase (19000 > 24000)”

“Damage. (Pulsar Tamer, Zanbiia) tsk.. Ugh.” he's cornered.

“Nanase! (24000)”

“Merry Block, Manish, Metal Party! (11000 > 26000)”

“Sable finishes it! (22000)”

“I don't guard.. C'mon heal trigger. (Chronodoze Sheep)”

“and that's six.” I packed up my deck and put it on my FICA. “I told you from the beginning, that's why you should listen.” I scoffed.

He didn't say anything.

The room went silent.

“Tell me.”

His voice was more serious it gave me shivers down my spine.

“Did you?”

“Did I what?”

“Bring them here? To this world.”

This time I went silent.
My mind was blank.
What should I even answer?

“That's none of your business.”

“It is my busine-”

“it's gone, it doesn't matter.”

“Hm, looks like you aren't admitting, I see. Maybe he will.” He snapped his finger as another figure walked into the room. He's pretty tall, marshmallow hair and blue eyes and of course, wearing a damn blue kitsune mask.

“Hm? Kizari Yui.”

“'How do you know my name?”

“Simple, because you know me.”

“No I don't.”

“Yes you do.”

“No I don't.”

“Yato Korosagi.”

It left me speechless.

“I...”

“That's what I thought.”

“...”

“So that means... You burnt her deck?”

“Not exactly, I was with you, chasing you after your pride was crushed.”

“Then who was the one who-”

“it was me.” a female was sitting down on the upper pipe. She jumped down and took off her pink kitsune mask.

“I don't remember you nor do I care.”

“Amai Odayaka. I'm a friend of the Mitzukis.”

“Hm? Mitzukis? I thought-”

“There are two, you obviously know Rentaro, but it's his sister.”

“Sister?”

Her lips formed into a smirk, she pointed behind me. I can't believe my eyes on who I was seeing.. That girl, a fucking traitor out of all people.

“Looks like you know her.” Odayaka yawned and played with her nails.

I walk over to Lucine and I notice, her eyes, their different, the colour is yellow? It also resembles like a cat.

“Kizacchi~” she giggled like she did nothing wrong, how disgusting.

“It's over Yui. You lost, we won.” I turn back to see the man I was finding, Rentaro.

“Who said the war is over?”

“Me of course.” He snickered. “You have nothing left.”

“You may won this battle, but this war isn't over.” I spat out.

“You wish. I still have something I want.”

“hm, and what is that?”

“Akari Nakano, I want her dead.”

I gulped and took small steps back to the metal door, but I got pushed to the floor by Lucine. Damn bitch I forgot she was there.

“Keep her as hostage for the last step, bait, don't fail me.” Rentaro went back to his own area, when I tried chasing him I was blocked by Odayaka, Masaru and Yato. Masaru tried to grab me, but I slapped his hand away.

“THAT'S HARASSMENT!” I barked at him kicking him round-house style.

Odayaka throw her wine bottle she found on the floor then charge to me recklessly. I dodged it easily and push her away. I can tell Yato was behind me so I kick him simply from the back.

I panted slightly looking at the three, I could hear footsteps turning back I saw Lucine then got smacked on the head. I didn't get a chance to see what she hit me with. I got knocked out cold.

It was silent..

He wanted Nakano dead huh..

Why..

Rentaro Mitzuki..

I can already see your plan failing..

Nakano is ready to face you.
