Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's Red Dragon Emperor

Ch 2 Testing Issei

Issei was looking far and wide to see any trace of his friends. He had little to no luck finding them, but he realized that maybe that maybe he was looking in the wrong place. Maybe New Domino City had the answers he was looking for. But he saw that sector security was tight and would be difficult to get to the city while being undetected. Then it hit Issei. Why not ask Trudge to see if he could pull some strings and have him get into New Domino City without being found out. But Issei had to get Trudge alone so that nobody could listen in on his conversation.

Issei went looking for Trudge and found him but not alone. Issei then made a diversion and Trudge was all alone now. Issei appeared and said, "how are you Trudge?" Trudge said "good. But I take it that you aren't here for a social visit?" Issei said "no I am not. I would like to ask for a favor." Trudge said, "what would you like to know?" Issei said, "is there a way to get into Neo Domino City without being found out?" Trudge said, "yes there is a way but unfortunately for both of us I can't tell you and my boss wants to know more about you as well."

Issei said, "then let's settle this with a duel." Trudge said, "well I guess that we will have to go this route as well." Both of them started their duel disks and said "duel." Issei said "my turn, I draw. I summon Kiba to the field in attack mode. (1600atk) I now use his effect to search out any sword birth card and add it to my hand. I add Sword of Wind to my hand. I now equip Sword of Wind to Kiba."

Trudge didn't like how this new monster he had never seen before works so he had to play it safe. Issei said, "now Sword of Wind allows Kiba to halve the attack and defense of every monster he battles. I will end my turn with two face downs." Trudge said "my turn, I draw. I summon Gate Blocker to the field in defense mode. (2000def) I will end my turn with two face downs." Issei said "my turn, I draw. I summon Koneko to the field in attack mode. (1500atk) I use Koneko's effect to force your monster into attack mode."

Trudge laughed and said, "my monsters can't be targeted for effects." Issei said "I use Kiba's ability to add another sword birth card. I add Sword of Ice to my hand. I now equip Sword of Ice to Kiba. Now that he has two swords equipped to him, he gains 500 attack and the ability to destroy one spell or trap on my opponent's side of the field. (2100atk) Now Kiba attack Gate Blocker." Trudge said, "I play my face down, Negate Attack which ends the battle phase." Issei said I will end my turn."

Trudge said "my turn, I draw. I summon Jutte Fighter to the field in attack mode. (700atk) I now tune my level 2 Jutte Fighter with my level 4 Gate Blocker to Synchro summon Goyo Guardian to the field in attack mode. (2800atk) I now attack your Koneko. (Issei's LP 2700) Now Goyo effect allows me to summon the monster I just destroyed by to my side of the field and in defense mode." Issei smiled and said, "Koneko's effect goes off and comes back to my side of the field." Trudge said, "how is that possible?"

Issei said "all my monsters can't be on my opponent's side of the field. So, what you did was helpful to myself, so I thank you." Trudge said, "I end my turn." Issei said "my turn, I draw. I play Pot of Greed to draw two cards. I summon Issei to the field in attack mode. (1800atk) Now I play Polymerization to fuse Kiba and Issei to summon Red Dragon Emperor Swords Master to the field in attack mode." (2500atk) Issei was now with his holy sword with the gantlet on his left hand. Issei said "now two things happen one while Kiba was equipped to two swords he gains the ability to pop one card on the field because he left the field. Two my new monster gains 1000 attack for each equipped card that was equipped to Kiba." (4500atk)

So Goyo was destroyed, and his field was wide open. Issei said, "Red Dragon attack him directly." Trudge yelled as he was defeated and now Issei had won the duel. Trudge said "nice duel but I can't tell you how to get to New Domino City I have been given strict orders not to tell a soul. I would love to help you I really would, but it is out of my hands."

Issei said "well that seems fair but I want to get to Neo Domino City at all costs. I didn't think I would have use this, but I'm left with no other choice. I will get to New Domino City, but I can't let anyone see how I get there. So, I see that it is nighttime, and I have a good way to get in." Trudge said "how do you think you can get there. By swimming? Not a chance. But I would love to see how you manage to do that." Issei said, "just watch."

Issei grew his demon wings and took off. Trudge was stunned by this and watched at Issei got to the city. Trudge promised himself that what he saw was just his imagination and that he was having a bad dream. Issei got the city, and his phone went off. Issei answered and said, "hello who is this?" The man said, "good to see that you got to the city in time." Issei said, "so you know I'm here." The man said "yes I do. Now down to business look around town and find some people that will help you." 

Issei "why?" The man said "you have a gift and I think you should go around and build support and make a name for yourself. I also have an offer for you, in a couple of days there will be a tournament held at stadium and I took the liberty of entering in this tournament. No need to thank me. I will be in touch with you, and I hope that we meet in person next time and I hope you put on a great show for all of us." The call ended and Issei looked around. There was someone keeping a close eye on him. He just walked around, and he now knew that someone may have the answers he seeks.
