Alright, here's something that I would like to try to do...writing duels! So I figured...why not do a little series of writing duels? Why? Because they're a lot of fun! What else? IT'LL BE GOOD PRACTICE FOR WRITING AND MATH! XD

With that out of the way, here are the standard rules for each duel request: it will be between two characters only, so no Battle Royales, Tag Duels, none of that. Just a standard one-on-one duel.

There will be ONE request per chapter. :)

The characters can either be an OC or a canon character only from Yu-Gi-Oh Arc V, so DM, GX, 5Ds, and Zexal characters are not allowed.

You can choose what type of deck the character/characters would use, whether it be made-up or real (so yes, if you have a made-up deck, you'll have to PM me the cards so that I'll know the stats and effects). It can be either OCG or TCG. :) You can even request some of my OC characters, but you'll have to ask permission first. :)

Characters will be referred by their Japanese names (no dub names please).

DON'T PUT THIS IN THE REVIEW: Tell me (in a PM) who you would like the winner of the duel to be.

All Summoning methods are allowed (Normal, Tribute/Advance, Fusion, Synchro, XYZ, Pendulum, Ritual), and if you have an OC character, he/she can originate from any of the four Dimensions.

Well, that's it! :) I hope you all enjoy this series! PM me or review your request, and I'll keep a checklist on who duels who.

And to make sure that this sticks with the guidelines, I'll do a little parody of...something. Please take in mind that this will probably be very stupid. XP

Once upon a time, a very happy-go-lucky tomato named Yuya strived to be the greatest Entertainer duelist in the entire store. Since his father had disappeared, however, that hope became a pipe dream...which turned into nightmares.

Then, one day, he faced against the evil purple hedgehog, Strong Ishijima...and that day, he discovered a brand new technique in dueling...Pendulum Summoning.

Ever since he discovered that Special Summon, his life fluctuated between joy and despair constantly: he felt joy when he was accepted into the new Miami Store Championship and with meeting new friends, such as Sora the Blue Pineapple.

However, he felt despair when said friend turned out to be an enemy against the two XYZ remnants, Yuto the Eggplant and Shun the Falcon...wait, since when are falcons allowed in a food store?

Who cares at this point?

Soon, after the great and terrifying duel between Sora the Pineapple and Shun the Falcon (it's obvious that Shun had won...because he's a falcon), Yuya confronted Sora...which led to him officially meeting Yuto and after fighting a strange blueberry-banana (whose name meant Fusion), Yuya absorbed Yuto into himself, making his skin darker...because he's a tomato.

Ever since then, the rotten darkness inside him was born, and Yuya struggled to keep his sanity and anger under control...but it was all in vain. With his ideals broken, he lost track of time of the war as his other halves were eventually defeated and absorbed as well, Yugo the Blueberry-Banana (by then, he learned that his name wasn't Fusion), and Yuri the Evil Pink Cabbage (the dye was designed to brainwash food, hence the pink color).

And eventually, after seven paragraphs and who knows how many words later, the four Yu-foods became one, turning into an evil black dragon that burned down the entire store...because this author couldn't think up of a better way to end a story.

And so ends the wonderful (and mind-blowingly stupid) parody of how a tomato can destroy everything. Now you'll never look at that fruit the same way...ever again.

I'm never writing a parody again. XD
