Hey guys. Sorry for the long wait. I've had a lot of personal issues with myself and studying the SAT for the last couple months but now that is over, I can have the time I need to write again. Now I went back to watching the Zexal series and I decided for a moment to take a chance and make a Zexal OC series of my own. I just hope you guys will enjoy it and this will start after the World Duel Carnival because I don't wanna do this from the beginning because it's boring and takes a long time. I hope you guys understand. Anyways, remember that I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! or anything else except some OC cards. Enjoy!

Chapter 1:

Heartland City

At a walkway in Heartland stood was a young boy at the age of 15 and stood at 165 cm tall and wearing a Heartland Academy uniform with the blue necktie, green sleeves, blue pants, and black running shoes. He has black hair spiked to the left and purple bangs near his left eye and grey piercing eyes. He also wears a pendent on his neck that has dragon wings and a purple crystal. His name...was Kazuto Kurono.

Kazuto's POV:

At this moment, I slowly walked to the Heartland Academy and start yawning. "Seriously, I just moved into this neighborhood yesterday with my aunt and uncle. Now they just suddenly wake me up to go to school today." I ceased my yawning until I heard yelling from behind and saw two students, a fat guy on an electric skateboard and a skinny one running beside him.

"Kattobingu, or-!" I widened my eyes as he suddenly jumped and crashed into me. "Sorry, Yuma! You lose this time!" The fat guy said as he continued on.

The skinny kid, Yuma, quickly got off me as I got up and dusted myself. "Hey, kid! Watch where you're going, would ya!?" I yelled. Yuma started bowing back and forth so quickly. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" He apologized. I sighed and then turned to get to the Academy.

"Wait!" I turned my head in confusion. "I've never seen you around here before. Are you a transfer student?" Yuma asked.

I turned my body facing him and answered. "Yes. I just moved here yesterday and living with my aunt and uncle. Is that all you wanted to ask?" I questioned. Yuma shook his head. "Nope. Just wondering. I'm Yuma Tsukumo! And you are?"

I sighed. "Kazuto Kuruno. Now if you don't want to be late, I suggest you get going." I reminded him as he started panicking. "Ahhh! That's right! I'm gonna be late again!" Yuma ran off but not before saying. "See ya around at school, Kazuto!" Yuma said as he hurried.

"Yuma Tsukumo, huh?" I shrugged and continued walking to school.


Heartland Academy

As I arrived at the school, I saw a few students talking with each other and some were staring at me. I ignored them and continued to go inside the school and get my schedule from the principal's office.

After getting my schedule, I looked for my assigned classroom until I found it and I saw the teacher waiting for me as the school bell rung. "So you must be the new student that the principal informed me about?" The teacher asked as I nodded. "My name is Mr. Sendou. Now wait here until you're called into the room." Mr. Sendou requested as I nodded.

As Mr. Sendou entered the classroom and placed his clipboard on his desk, he clapped his hands a couple times to get the student's attention. "Alright class, settle down. Starting from today, we have a new transfer student overseas." Students whispered to each other wondering who it is. "Now come in." I walked inside the room with my hands in my pockets and stood near the board. I wrote my name and then turned. "My name is Kazuto Kuruno. I was transferred here due to family reasons. That's all. I hope you all treat me well." I bowed.

"Now then. You're assigned seat will be...Ah! There! Right next to Ryoga Kamishiro." Mr. Sendou pointed to the purple haired student at the back. My eyes widened in that familiar name. I looked across the room and found a familiar face with purple octopus-like hair while walking to my assigned seat.

I sat in my seat as class started. I sighed as this would be a long day when I didn't notice Ryoga staring at me in suspicion.


During Lunch Break

I walked out of the classroom with my lunchbox and started to look around the school for a good spot until I decided to go to the roof. As I went out the door to the roof, I found a spot and sat. I opened my lunchbox and started eating while feeling the wind blow past me as I was in peace until I heard commotion and saw 6 other students, 4 of them were boys with red neckties and 2 were girls with the pink girl's uniform for first years. I looked at one of then and recognized Yuma among them.

"Oh? Who's that?" The one boy with blue hair wondered. They looked at me until Yuma gasped. "Kazuto!" Yuma ran to me and stood in front of me. "I didn't think you of all people would be here." I closed my eyes and answered. "Yeah, well you just ruined my afternoon of peace and quiet. So, who are your friends over there?" I asked pointing at the group. "Oh! I forgot to introduce them." The group walked up to us and introduced themselves one at a time.

"Hey, pal! My name's Tetsuo Takeda!" The fat guys said. "I'm Takashi Todoroki! Nice to meet you!" The boy with blue hair said. "I'm Tokunosuke Omoteura! Nice to meet you as well!" The short boy said. "Meow! My name is Cathy Katherine! Nice to meet you!" The girl with glasses said. "And my name is Kotori Mizuki. Nice to meet you!" The girl with green hair said.

"Those are some nice friends you have." I commented until I closed my lunchbox and stood up. "I'll see ya around." I waved as I walked past them until Yuma ran and stopped in front of me. "Wait! Are you...a duelist?" He suddenly asked until he was punched in the head by Kotori. "Yuma! You can't just go around asking new people for a duel!" She scolded.

I sweat dropped as I answered. "Yeah, I'm a duelist. Why?" I asked. "Cool! In that case! During Duel Period, I challenge you to a duel!" Yuma challenged which caught my interest. "Fine then. I'll see ya on the field." I accepted as I walked away to another place.


Duel Period

As duel period started, I put on my D-Gazer which was colored black with the lens colored purple. I looked at the various duels going on until I saw Yuma waving to get my attention. I walked to him and faced him. "Alright, you've got your challenge accepted. Let's see what you've got." I said as Yuma smirked. "I was hoping you'd say that!" Yuma threw his D-Pad high as it transformed and expanded which I also did so. "Duel Disk, set!" Our D-Pads attached on our wrist as the monster zones were set.

"D-Gazer, set! Duel Target, Lock On!" Our Gazer's lens flashed as the Augmented Reality system kicked in. "Augmented Reality Vision Link, Established!" This caught the attention of other students as they ran to the sidelines to watch including Ryoga.

"DUEL!"

No One's POV:

Turn 1

Kazuto: 4000

Hand: 5

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 5

"My turn, draw!" Yuma started.

"I set a monster facedown! And then I set one card facedown and end my turn!" Yuma finished and that's when a being materialized beside him. His name...is Astral. "I see you are starting another duel. Will you need my help on this one?" Astral asked. "Nope! I got this!" Yuma reassured.

Turn 2

Kazuto: 4000

Hand: 5

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 4

"I don't know who your talking to, but that doesn't matter because I'm going all out as of now! My turn, draw!" Kazuto drew.

"From my hand, I summon The Phantom Knights of Ancient Cloak!"

The Phantom Knights of Ancient Cloak: Lv. 3 DARK Warrior ATK: 800/ DEF: 1000 (ATK Mode)

"Phantom Knights? What kind of cards are those? Hey, Astral! You got any ideas?" Yuma wondered. "No, I don't. This is completely new to me." Astral answered.

"And since I control a Phantom Knights on my field, I can special summon my Phantom Knights of Silent Boots from my hand!"

The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots: Lv. 3 DARK Warrior ATK: 200/ DEF: 1200 (ATK Mode)

"Two lv 3 monsters. Is it coming?" Astral wondered as the students watched. "I overlay my lv 3 Ancient Cloak and Silent boots in order to build the overlay network!" The two monsters turned purple before going into a red portal. "Souls of knights who fell on the battlefield. Revive here and now, and become the light that breaks the darkness! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 3! The Phantom Knights of Break Sword!" Kazuto's monster landed in front on him as the ground started to break.

The Phantom Knights of Break Sword: Rank 3 DARK Warrior/Xyz ATK: 2000/ DEF: 1000 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"Whoa! What a monster!" Yuma commented. "I set one card facedown." Kazuto continued ignoring what Yuma said. "I activate my Break Sword's effect! By using one overlay unit, I can target one card on both mine and your field and destroy them! And the ones I destroy are your monster and my facedown!" Kazuto declared as Break Sword lifted it's sword and hit the ground as it destroyed my facedown and Yuma's monster which revealed to be Gogogo Golem.

Break Sword OU: 2-1

"No! My monster!" Yuma cried. "What an effect! Since we longer have a monster, we're wide open for an attack!" Astral stated.

"Take this! Break Sword attack Yuma directly!" Break Sword lifted it's sword once again and prepared to attack Yuma. "I activate the trap Impenetrable Attack! During this turns Battle Phase, I take no damage from your attack!" An invisible force blocked the attack as Break Sword retreated back to Kazuto's side.

"Not bad. I set two cards facedown and end my turn."

Turn 3

Kazuto: 4000

Hand: 1

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 4

"Damn, this guy's tough! My turn, draw!" Yuma drew Gogogo Giant and smirked. "I summon Gogogo Giant in ATK mode!"

Gogogo Giant: Lv. 4 EARTH Rock ATK: 2000/ DEF: 0 (ATK Mode)

"Nice! Since Yuma just summoned Gogogo Giant, it's effect lets him summon a Gogogo monster from his graveyard in DEF mode!" Tetsuo said as the graveyard portal opened with Golem colored brown and in guarding position.

Gogogo Golem: Lv. 4 EARTH Rock ATK: 1800/ DEF: 1500 (DEF Mode)

"And after this effect is activated, Giant is then switched to DEF mode!" Yuma stated as Giant to a defensive position.

"Two lv 4 monsters. Is it coming?" Kazuto wondered.

"Here goes! I overlay my lv 4 Gogogo Golem and Giant!" Both monsters turned orange before going into a red portal. "With these two monsters, I build the overlay network! Xyz Summon! Appear! Gagaga Cowboy!"

Gagaga Cowboy: Rank 4 EARTH Warrior/Xyz ATK: 1500/ DEF: 2400 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"Hmph! So what? Your monster only has 1500 ATK points. It's too weak to destroy my Break Sword." Kazuto pointed out. That's when he didn't expect Yuma to do something crazy. "Gagaga Cowboy attack Break Sword!" Kazuto's eyes widened in surprise.

"I activate Cowboy's effect! When is battles your monster by using one overlay unit, your monster loses 500 ATK points while my Cowboy gains 1000 ATK points!" Yuma explained as Cowboy gains an orange aura while the overlay unit bursted on his chest.

Gagaga Cowboy OU: 2-1

Gagaga Cowboy ATK: 1500-2500

Break Sword ATK: 2000-1500

"Interesting effect...but so predictable. I play the trap Phantom Knights' Fog Blade!" A sword came out of the trap with the fog as the blade and hit Gagaga Cowboy. "This card negates your attack." Gagaga Cowboy pulled back. "And as long as this trap is on the field, your Gagaga Cowboy's effect is negated and it can't attack!" Yuma grunted.

"I set one card facedown and end my turn. At this moment, Gagaga Cowboy's effect ends returning our monster's ATK points to normal." Yuma said.

Gagaga Cowboy ATK: 2500-1500

Break Sword ATK: 1500-2000

Turn 4

Kazuto: 4000

Hand: 1

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 3

"My turn, draw!" Kazuto drew.

"I activate the spell Overlay Draw. This card detaches all overlay units from all Xyz monsters on the field." Kazuto explained as both monster's units were sent to the graveyard. "Ah! I needed that unit!" Yuma complained. "Yeah? Well too bad! For every unit that was detached, I can draw a card from my deck." Kazuto explained as he drew two.

"Battle! Break Sword attack Gagaga Cowboy!" Break Sword lifted it's sword and prepared to slash Gagaga Cowboy. "I activate the trap Nitwit Outwit! By sending one monster card from my hand to the graveyard, I can decrease your monster's ATK by the sent monster's ATK! I discard Gagaga Magician from my hand!" Yuma declared as Gagaga Magician appeared and grabbed hold of Break Sword while it was struggling to get free.

Break Sword ATK: 2000-500

"No way!" Gagaga Cowboy lifted his pistols and counterattacked destroying Break Sword. "Grgh!"

Kazuto: 4000-3000

"At this moment, Break Sword's other effect activates! When this card leaves the field, I can special summon the materials used to summon it from my graveyard as lv 4 monsters!" Kazuto declared as both Ancient Cloak and Silent Boots reappeared by his side surprising the spectators watching.

The Phantom Knights of Ancient Cloak: Lv. 3-4 DARK Warrior ATK: 800/ DEF: 1000 (DEF Mode)

The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots: Lv. 3-4 DARK Warrior ATK: 200/ DEF: 1200 (DEF Mode)

"Yo! That guy is awesome!" "How good is this guy!?" "I wanna duel him so badly!" The numerous students said spectating.

"Your good, Yuma. I end my turn." Kazuto declared.

Turn 5

Kazuto: 3000

Hand: 3

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 2

"Hehe! My turn, draw!" Yuma drew Dododo Warrior.

"Yuma!" Yuma turned to Astral who called him. "On his last turn, he still had 2 lv 4 monsters on the field and could have easily done another Xyz Summon but he didn't." Astral stated the situation. "Ah! You're right!" Yuma realized. "Just what is this boy's plan in all this?" Astral wondered.

"Alright, here goes! I tribute my Gagaga Cowboy to summon from my hand Dododo Warrior!" Gagaga Cowboy disappeared as Dododo Warrior took the field.

Dododo Warrior: Lv. 6 EARTH Warrior ATK: 2300/ DEF: 900 (ATK Mode)

"Next, I play the spell Monster Reborn to bring back Gagaga Magician from my graveyard!" A graveyard portal opened and out came Gagaga Magician and taking a stance.

Gagaga Magician: Lv. 4 DARK Spellcaster ATK: 1500/ DEF: 1000 (ATK Mode)

"Now I activate his effect! Once per turn, I can change my Magician's lv between levels 1 to 8! I change his level to 6!" Yuma declared.

Gagaga Magician Lv: 4-6

"Two lv 6 monsters. How interesting! Come!" Kazuto challenged. "You got it! I overlay my lv 6 Dododo Warrior and Gagaga Magician in order to build the overlay network!" Both monsters turned orange and purple before going into a red portal. "Xyz Summon! Appear! Gauntlet Launcher!"

Gauntlet Launcher: Rank 6 EARTH Warrior/Xyz ATK: 2400/ DEF: 2800 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"Is it just me or is Yuma dueling seriously for once against Kazuto?" Tetsuo said bewildered.

"You're right! To summarize, he's only went easy with his other opponents!" Takashi stated.

"Nyah! Get him, Yuma!" Cat cheered with Kotori pouting.

"I activate Launcher's effect! By using one overlay unit, I can destroy a monster on the field! Take this!" The unit bursted on Gaunlet Launcher's forehead as it launched a gauntlet at Kazuto's monsters.

Gauntlet Launcher OU: 2-1

"I don't think so! I play the quick-play spell The Phantom Knights of Divided Union! When a Phantom Knight monster is targeted by an effect, I can instantly Xyz Summon a Phantom Knight Xyz monster with half their current lv! Both my monsters are lv 4 so therefore, I can Xyz Summon for a Rank 2 monster!"

"What!?" Yuma exclaimed.

"I overlay both my Ancient Cloak and Silent Boots in order to build the overlay network!" Both monsters turned purple before going into another red portal as it exploded. "Piercing through countless warriors, the pitch-black spear buried in darkness, descend now! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 2! The Phantom Knights of Cursed Javelin!"

The Phantom Knights of Cursed Javelin: Rank 2 DARK Warrior/Xyz ATK: 1600/ DEF: 0 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"An Xyz Summon with half the monsters' lv?" Astral said. "No way!" Yuma said. "But, I've still got one last overlay unit to use! I detach the final unit to destroy Cursed Javelin!" Gaunlet Launcher fired it's other gauntlet at Cursed Javelin.

Gauntlet Launcher OU: 1-0

"I don't think so! Curse Javelin's effect can be activated during the opponent's turn! By using one overlay unit, I can negate your monster's effect and reduce it's ATK to zero!" Cursed Javeling blocked the incoming gauntlet with it's shield and then raised it's Javelin and aimed at Gaunlet Launcher shooting lightning as it grunted in pain.

Cursed Javelin OU: 2-1

Gauntlet Launcher ATK: 2400-0

"N-No way!" Yuma grunted. "Alright, Astral. Are there any other suggestions to this situation?" Yuma asked. "There might be a way. but we have to survive the next turn." Astral suggested.

"Got it! I set one card facedown and end my turn!"

Turn 6

Kazuto: 3000

Hand: 3

VS

Yuma: 4000

Hand: 0

"Yuma has no other cards in his hand." Tokunosuke stated.

"Is there any other way for him to turn this around?" Tetsuo said in worry.

"Yuma." Kotori whispered.

"My turn!" Kazuto drew.

"I activate the spell The Phantom Knights of Tomb Reincarnation! By allowing my opponent to draw two cards from their deck, I can add two Phantom Knights monsters from my graveyard back to my hand. Now, draw your 2 cards Yuma." Kazuto said as Yuma drew 2. "I add from my graveyard Silent Boots and Break Sword but since Break Sword is an Xyz monster, it goes to my Extra Deck instead." Kazuto stated as he put Break Sword in his Extra Deck.

"Next, I summon The Phantom Knights of Ragged Gloves from my hand!"

The Phantom Knights of Ragged Gloves: Lv. 3 DARK Warrior ATK: 1000/ DEF: 500 (ATK Mode)

"And since I control a Phantom Knights monster, I can special summon Silent Boots from my hand once again!"

The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots: Lv. 3 DARK Warrior ATK: 200/ DEF: 1200 (ATK Mode)

"I overlay my lv 3 Ragged Gloves and Silent boots in order to build the overlay network!" The two monsters turned purple before going into a red portal. "Souls of knights who fell on the battlefield. Revive here and now, and become the light that breaks the darkness! Xyz Summon! Appear, Rank 3! The Phantom Knights of Break Sword!" Kazuto's monster reappeared as the ground started to break.

The Phantom Knights of Break Sword: Rank 3 DARK Warrior/Xyz ATK: 2000/ DEF: 1000 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"Ah no, not that thing again!" Yuma complained.

"Yes, again. And it get's worse! When Ragged Gloves is used as an Xyz material for a DARK Xyz monster, it gains an additional 1000 ATK points!" Break Sword glowed as it gained more power.

Break Sword ATK: 2000-3000

"I set one card facedown and activate Break Sword's effect! I detach an overlay unit to destroy my facedown and your monster!" Kazuto declared as Break Sword lifted it's sword and hit the ground as it destroyed my facedown and Yuma's monster again.

Break Sword OU: 2-1

"This is the end! Battle! Break Sword attack Yuma directly!" Break Sword lifted it's sword making Yuma grunt. "I'll just have to use my trap-" "Yuma! Don't do it now!" Astral quickly said. "Take this attack. We still have a chance if we take this attack. Trust me." Yuma hesitated until he made up his mind as he took the strike from Break Sword sending him flying. "GAAAHHH! Umph!"

Yuma: 4000-1000

"I'm not done! Cursed Javelin attack Yuma directly and end this duel!" Cursed Javeling prepared to throw it's Javelin until Yuma quickly reacted. "I activate my trap Xyz Reborn! This lets me special summon an Xyz monster from my graveyard and this trap becomes an overlay unit for the resurrected monster! Revive, Gauntlet Launcher!" Gauntlet Launcher came out of the graveyard portal with an overlay unit surrounding it.

Gauntlet Launcher: Rank 6 EARTH Warrior/Xyz ATK: 2400/ DEF: 2800 OU: 1 (ATK Mode)

"Tch! I stop the attack." Cursed Javelin lower it's weapon and retreated. "Since you're monster still has that overlay unit, I can't let you use that. I detach Cursed Javelin's last overlay unit and use it's effect on your Launcher once more!" Cursed Javelin aimed at Gaunlet Launcher shooting lightning as it grunted in pain.

Cursed Javelin OU: 1-0

Gauntlet Launcher ATK: 2400-0

"I set one card facedown and end my turn." Kazuto declared.

Turn 7

Kazuto: 3000

Hand: 0

VS

Yuma: 1000

Hand: 2

"Alright, here goes! My turn, draw!"

"I activate the spell Xyz Treasure! For every Xyz monster on the field, I can draw one card from my deck! There are currently 3 Xyz monsters so therefore, I can draw 3 cards from my deck!" Yuma explained as he drew.

"I activate the quick-play spell Overtake Summon! By detaching an overlay unit from an opponent's Xyz monster, I can special summon a lv 4 or below monster from my hand!" Kazuto grunted as Break Sword's last overlay unit detached and went to Yuma's card.

Break Sword OU: 1-0

"Here goes! I special summon from my hand Gagaga Caesar!"

Gagaga Caesar: Lv. 3 EARTH Spellcaster ATK: 1800/ DEF: 600 (ATK Mode)

"Next, I summon Gagaga Girl!"

Gagaga Girl: Lv. 3 DARK Spellcaster ATK: 1000/ DEF: 800 (ATK Mode)

"Another Xyz Summon? Please. As if any other monsters you have left are strong enough to defeat mine." Kazuto taunted.

"Nope! From here on, this is where we get serious! I activate Gagaga Caesar's effect! Once per turn, I banish a monster in my graveyard and all my Gagagas' lv become the banished monster's level!" Caesar twirled his staff and casted a spell on the ground. "I banish Gogogo Giant and all my monsters' lv become 4!"

Gagaga Caesar Lv: 3-4

Gagaga Girl Lv: 3-4

"Here goes! I overlay my lv 4 Gagaga Caesar and Gagaga Girl in order to build the overlay network! Xyz Summon!" Both monsters turned purple and orange before going into a galaxy portal. "Appear! Number 39! Utopia!" A strange figure appeared on the field as it transformed into an amazing warrior.

Number 39: Utopia: Rank 4 LIGHT Warrior/Xyz ATK: 2500/ DEF: 2000 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"Huh!? A Number!? What on earth is that!?" Kazuto yelled in surprise.

"You should more focused on the duel! Gagaga Girl's effect activates! When she's used as an Xyz material along with another Gagaga monster, I can reduce an opponent's Xyz monster to 0! Zero Zero Call!" Gagaga Girl flipped her phone as it flashed onto Break Sword.

Break Sword ATK: 3000-0

"Ah! Break Sword ATK points!" Kazuto exclaimed.

"Go! Utopia attack Break Sword with Rising Sun Slash!" Utopia threw one of his swords before catching it as he leaped into the air and slashed Break Sword. "Grgh! AAHHHHH!"

Kazuto: 3000-500

Kazuto struggled to get up with his bangs covering his eyes as he started to remember a part of his past.

Flashback

Young Kazuto was standing in a cemetery and wearing a suit with a black tie, crying at a particular gravestone, his parents, with other people that attended the funeral.

After the funeral, Kazuto was still in front of the gravestone still crying. "Why? Why did you two have to go!?" Kazuto shouted until he heard a cry calling to him from a distance. He followed the voice to a single card flying down to his hand. The card revealed itself as an Xyz monster as he heard a dragon's roar of depression and sadness. "This is..."

Flashback End

Kazuto got up to his feet and raised his head showing a harsh glare. "Uh? Is something wrong?" Yuma asked. Kazuto ignored him and answered. "Break Sword's effect activates! I special summon the materials used to summon it as lv 4 monsters!"

The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots: Lv. 3-4 DARK Warrior ATK: 200/ DEF: 1200 (DEF Mode)

The Phantom Knights of Ragged Gloves: Lv. 3-4 DARK Warrior ATK: 1000/ DEF: 500 (DEF Mode)

"Just finish your turn already." Kazuto said harshly surprising Yuma.

"Uh...Right! I switch Gauntlet Launcher to DEF mode!" Yuma declared as Gauntlet Launcher took a defensive position.

Gauntlet Launcher (ATK Mode - DEF Mode)

"I then set one card facedown and end my turn."

Turn 8

Kazuto: 500

Hand: 0

VS

Yuma: 1000

Hand: 1

"My turn...draw." Kazuto drew and then a dragon's cry was heard. "So you want to end this, huh? Fine then."

"I overlay my lv 4 Silent Boots and Ragged Gloves in order to build the overlay network!" Both monsters turned purple before going into a galaxy portal. "Fang's of pitch-black darkness, rise up against the foolish oppression! Descend now! Xyz Summon! Come forth! Rank 4! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon!"

Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon: Rank 4 DARK Dragon/Xyz ATK: 2500/DEF: 2000 OU: 2 (ATK Mode)

"D-Dark Rebellion...Xyz Dragon!?" Kotori said in worry.

"W-What kind of dragon is that!?" Tetsuo wondered.

Both Yuma and Astral looked at the dragon that was growling.

"This duel is over during this turn. Since I used Ragged Gloves as an Xyz material for Dark Rebellion, he gains an additional 1000 ATK points." Dark Rebellion glowed as it gains power.

Dark Rebellion ATK: 2500-3500

"Now from my hand, I play the spell The Phantom Knights of Level Sanctuary. By banishing two Phantom Knight Xyz monsters on my field or graveyard, I can target an opponent's Xyz monster and it gains levels equal to the combined ranks of my banished Phantom Knights." The crowd was bewildered as both Phantom Knights were banished and Utopia's Rank became a lv of 5.

Utopia Rank 4 - Lv. 5

"Huh? He's giving Utopia levels? Why though?" Yuma wondered.

"I activate Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon's effect! By using an overlay unit, it can halve the ATK of a lv 5 or higher monster and gain that lost ATK until the end of this turn! Treason Discharge!" Dark Rebellion's wings opened and formed purple lightning shooting at Utopia, binding him.

Dark Rebellion OU: 2-1

Utopia ATK: 2500-1250

Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon ATK: 3500-4750

"What!?" Yuma exclaimed. "4750 ATK points!?" Astral said in bewilderment.

"I'm not done yet! I detach the remaining overlay unit and activate it's effect again! Treason Discharge!" Dark Rebellion shot purple lightning at Utopia as the warrior groaned in pain.

Dark Rebellion OU: 1-0

Utopia ATK: 1250-625

Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon ATK: 4750-5325

"5-5325 ATK!?" Yuma exclaimed.

"Battle! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon attack Utopia!" Dark Rebellion screeched as it dashed ahead toward utopia with it's chin fang glowing. "Revolt of the Lightning, Disobey!"

"Fat chance! I activate Utopia's effect! By using one overlay unit, I can negate your attack!" Yuma countered as Utopia absorbed an overlay unit in his chest.

"It's useless. I activate from my graveyard the trap Breakthrough Skill! This trap negates your monster's effect for this turn." Kazuto countered Yuma as he yelped. "A trap from the graveyard!? Since when did he-!?"

"He sent it to the graveyard with Break Sword's effect!" Astral stated which made Yuma gasp and cringe.

"Not yet! I activate my trap Mirror Mail! When my monster is attacked, it's ATK becomes equal to the attacking monster!" Yuma countered as 5 mirrors circled around Utopia. The two monsters clashed resulting in an explosion as smoke started to fill the field.

"With this, we're safe from his attack." Astral said until he and Yuma gasped as the smoke cleared revealing Dark Rebellion had stabbed Utopia with it's chin fang to the chest making the warrior groan in pain. This also made students that were watching scared and looked away.

"W-What!? But how!?" Yuma exclaimed until he saw a spell card glowing on Kazuto's field. "I told you...it's useless. I activated the effect of my continuous spell Phantom Knight's Spear from my graveyard. When my opponent activates a trap card, I can banish this card from my graveyard to negate your trap and destroy it." A spear appeared which pierced Yuma's trap and destroyed it.

"N-No way." Yuma said as Utopia was destroyed and sending Yuma flying. "GAAAHHHH! Ungh!" Yuma landed on the ground.

Kazuto: 500(Winner!)

Yuma: 0

As the monsters and reality link dissipated, Kazuto started to walk away while taking his D-Gazer off and Duel Disk. "Wait, Kazuto!" Yuma called out making Kazuto stop.

"Enough, Yuma. I've had enough of dueling today. So don't bother coming near me again." Kazuto finished as he walked into the school leaving Yuma in defeat while unaware that Shark was staring at Kazuto walking away. "So it is you, Kazuto Yamino."

And done! Don't go anywhere just yet. There's another chapter to be read. Kazuto is my Zexal OC with a Phantom Knights deck because I felt like it and more of his past will be revealed as the story goes on. Anyway hope you guys enjoyed this and please be sure to Read & Review of what you thought. See ya next chapter!
