Knight of Gems:

In the weeks following the duel between Zane and Jaden in the graduation duel, the final exams for the school year had taken place. The results of these would determine if the returning students from the first and second years would move up to the next dorm when they return after the summer holidays. Now that the exams were over, there were no more lessons to be taught and the days were just for practicing duels until the Holidays started in a few days when the ship would arrive to take everyone back to Domino City to be picked up by their parents.

In the Slifer Red Dorm, Jaden Yuki sat in the school canteen with his friend Syrus Truesdale as they had some rice. Most of the Slifer Red Students were in their rooms, they were all relieved that the exams were over and some hoped that they had done well enough to be promoted up to Ra Yellow. Along with Jaden and Syrus, Chazz Princeton was also in the canteen as well as Kallian Tabris and Faren Brosca.

"Man, I can't believe the final exams are now over" Syrus sighed "Now I'm no longer full of stress."

"Yeah and in about a week, we'll be back in Domino City for the Summer Holidays" Kallian added

"And then we'll just have to wait until summer's over and we'll be back here for our second year" Faren added

"Well I don't know how you were feeling during those exams, but I sure had a good nap" Jaden stated cheerfully

Chazz groaned "You mean you slept through your exams?" he hissed, Chazz was no longer the arrogant person he had been at the start of the year but he still got annoyed with Jaden sleeping through classes "If you keep sleeping through your exams then you'll never advance to the next dorm"

"Chazz is right Jaden" Syrus stated "Remember, Chumley flunked his exams and got held back three years"

"Yeah but even so, Slifer Red is sweet" Jaden stated "And I can't wait to come back here next year. I mean this year I got to face Kaiba's deck, duel the Paradox brothers, take part in the School Duel and help save the world from those Sacred Beasts and the Shadow Riders. So I wonder what I will face this year"

"Well I think we've had enough excitement for one year" Kallian stated "I would prefer to have a normal quiet year next year"

"So what do you plan to do during the holidays?" Faren asked everyone "I don't really have any plans"

"Well my parents are usually busy with work so I will probably be duelling others around Domino city" Jaden stated

"I will be staying with my parents" Kallian stated "We plan to go on a trip to America for the holidays"

"Well my parents and I have to help prepare Zane" Syrus added "At the end of the Holidays, he will be entering the Pro League which means that he will be facing expert duellists and these people may be even more skilled than he is. Some of these pro-duellists have be duelling for years"

"I'm sure Zane will do well" Jaden stated and then he turned to Chazz "What about you Chazz?" he asked "What do you have planned for the summer"

"I don't really know" Chazz stated "I don't want anything to do with my brothers after what they've done so I just want to stay clear of them"

"Speaking of family Solona and Daylen seem to be happy with their father" Kallian stated

"Well Aristide Amell had been missing for some time" Jaden stated "And now he's back so this is the first time that the Amells are together as a family for their holidays"

...

Jaden was right about the Amell family. Aristide Amell was currently in the Obelisk Blue Boys dorm with his son Daylen along with his daughter Solona. Solona had been allowed in the Boys dorm with her father so they could have a chat. The young girl Avexis who had been one of the Shadow Riders was also with them.

"This is going to be the first time in nearly 5 years that we will all be together as a family" Solona stated

"Mother has missed you dad" Daylen added

"Well I'm looking forward to seeing Revka again" Aristide smiled "And we'll be doing a lot of activities over the summer. I need to make up for those years that I've missed being with you"

Then Aristide felt someone tug on his leg, he looked down to see Avexis tugging on his leg with sad eyes "And what about me?" she asked "Please don't send me back to the orphanage, I hate it there."

Aristide smiled and lifted Avexis up onto his lap "Don't worry Avexis" he said "We're not going to leave you, you may not be one of my blood but I will treat you like a daughter. I just need to get the paperwork so we can legally adopt you."

Avexis smiled and then hugged Aristide around the neck.

Solona and Daylen smiled at this, they couldn't wait to introduce Avexis to their mother and they would have a little sister with them in the House. Then the door opened and the two looked to see their auburn haired friend Aedan Cousland enter with someone they didn't recognise. The man had short black hair and wore an Obelisk Blue uniform and looked to be a second year student.

"Hey Solona, hey Daylen" Aedan greeted "I'm sorry to bother your family meeting but this guy asked me to take him to you. He wanted to ask you something."

"Well, who are you and what do you want?" Solona asked

The boy looked at her "My name is Crassius Servis" he stated "I am here because I wanted to ask you Solona if I could have a duel"

"You want a duel with my sister?" Daylen questioned "Why?"

"Just a friendly duel" Servis answered "It just this might be my only chance, there is a possibility that I may not be returning next year as my family are having a few issues so I may not be able to return."

"Well I'm always up for a duel" Solona replied "Just give me time to prepare then meet me outside the Obelisk Boys Dorm in a few hours"

"I will" Servis answered as he left.

"So it seems we've be having one last duel before we leave the island" Daylen stated

"We will" Solona answered "Now I just need to go back to my room to get my Duel Disk and deck. And I might as well inform my friends about this, they'll want to watch this"

"Jaden especially" Daylen laughed "He never misses a duel. I'll go get him"

"I'll go see Theorn and the others at the Yellow Dorm" Aedan added "They'll want to watch this duel as well.

...

Over at the Obelisk Blue Girl's Dorm, Alexis Rhodes along with her friends, Sereda, Jasmine and Mindy were talking with each other about their plans "So what do you plan to do after you graduate from Duel Academy?" Jasmine asked

"Well, I was hoping to carry on and become a pro duellist just like my father" Sereda stated "I want to make my father proud of me"

"You know, you've never talked about your father" Alexis stated "Or your family?"

"Well, my brothers and I do have issues with each other" Sereda stated "My oldest brother Trian always likes to push people around but he's not an arrogant snob. He is the heir to father's fortune that he's made through his years of duelling but no one likes him which makes him frustrated"

"What about your other brother?" Mindy asked

"Bhelen is cunning" Sereda answered "He's not planning on coming to Duel Academy as he's thinking of going to a different academy, he acts like he's a weak duellist but he's good at tricking his opponents to fall into traps, he prefers a more sneaky way of defeating his opponents but he doesn't cheat."

"Well that is one way to defeat your opponents" Alexis stated "Some duellists are arrogant and can fall into traps because they're not paying attention"

Then there was a beeping noise which came from Sereda's Duel Pilot and she pulled it out and answered it "Sereda, are you there?" the voice of Aedan called

"Hey Aedan" Sereda answered "What is it?"

"I was just calling you to ask you something" Aedan stated "Solona is just about to have a duel with someone and I was just wondering if you wanted to watch. Theon and Neria have said that they're going to watch the duel and I'm sure Jaden will want to watch as well"

"Who is Solona going to duel?" Sereda asked

"An Obelisk Blue student called Servis" Aedan answered "He just wanted a friendly duel to challenge himself"

Sereda thought for a moment and then answered "I think I will be watching this duel" she stated "Where will she be duelling?"

"Just in front of the Obelisk Blue Boys dorm" Aedan answered

"I'll be right there" Sereda stated and then she ended the call and then looked at the others "Well I've got to go to the Boy's Dorm to watch Solona's Duel"

"I think I'll come as well" Alexis stated "I would like to see this duel"

"Well, Mindy and I are going to get our things ready for going home" Jasmine stated

...

Jaden and Syrus were walking along the path towards Duel Academy "Hey Jaden" Syrus stated "Why are we doing to the shop?"

"Because I want to see if there are any cards left before we leave" Jaden stated "And I think I'll have a go for a Sandwich, I might even get the Golden Eggwich.

Syrus decided that he too could do with some new cards for his deck, but then he saw someone familiar "Hey, isn't that Theorn and Neria?" he asked

"It is" Jaden stated as they approached the two Ra Yellow students "Hey you two" he greeted "What's up?"

"We're just on our way to the Obelisk Blue Boys Dorm" Theorn stated

"Why are you going there?" Syrus asked

"To watch the duel that's about to happen" Neria answered

"A duel" Jaden gasped "That's sweet, forget about the Card shop, I've got to see this duel"

"Well let's go" Theorn stated as the four began to walk towards the dorm

"So who's duelling?" Jaden asked

"Solona will be" Theorn stated "Aedan just called us on his duel Pilot to say that Solona was having a Duel with an Obelisk Blue student called Crassius Servis"

They soon arrived at the Dorm where they saw Sereda and Alexis had already arrived and were standing with Aristide, Daylen and Aedan "I should have known that you would come Jaden" Alexis stated "You never miss a duel"

"I sure wouldn't" Jaden smiled "And I wonder how this Servis duels"

"Well we're about to find out" Daylen smiled as she watched Solona and Servis stand opposite each other as they shuffled each other's decks.

"I can't wait to see how you do against my deck" Servis stated

"And I wonder what kind of deck you duel with" Solona added and then they handed the decks back and then walked to the edge of the field and activated their Duel Disks and drew 5 cards each

"DUEL!"

Solona: 8000
Servis: 8000

"Since I challenged you, you can take the first move" Servis said

"Thank you, my draw" Solona stated as she drew her 6th card "And I summon Luster Dragon in attack mode" The large purple scaled dragon appeared on the field (Level; 4 Attack: 1900 Defence: 1600) "Then I will throw two cards facedown and end my turn"

"My turn" Servis stated as he drew his 6th card "And I play Foolish burial so now I can discard one card in my deck to the graveyard." Servis sent a monster in his neck and sent it to his graveyard "And then I'll play another spell card, Gem Knight Fusion"

"Wait, what fusion?" Syrus gasped

"Gem Knight Fusion" Servis stated "Now I can select one Gem Knight Fusion Monster in my extra deck and summon it by discarding the materials from my hand, so now I sacrifice Gem Knight Garnet and Gem Knight Obsidian in my hand which will allow me to summon out Gem Knight Citrine" a black armoured knight with a black cape and arms made from lava appeared on the field with a sword of fire (Level 7 Attack 2200 Defence 1950) "And also, the effect of Obsidian activates, since I sent him from my hand to the graveyard, I can summon 1 level 4 or below Gem Knight from my graveyard, so I summon the card I discarded with Foolish Burial, Gem Knight Emerald." A green armoured knight with clubs attacked to his hands appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1800 Defence 800)

"Wow, a fusion summon on his first turn" Jaden gasped "This guy really is a skilled duellist."

"And it's not looking good for Solona" Alexis added "Now Servis can destroy her monster and deal her a good amount of damage"

"And now, Citrine attack" Servis ordered "And don't even think of activating your facedowns because when Citrine attacks, you can't activate any cards or effects until the end of the damage step" Citrine's flaming sword slashed through Luster Dragon causing the dragon to screech before shattering.

Solona: 7700
Servis: 8000

"And now my Emerald will attack you directly" Servis added as Emerald leapt at Solona and punched her.

Solona: 5900
Servis: 8000

"And now I will end my turn" Servis finished

"Wow, first move and already Solona's losing" Aedan stated

"Well this duel has only just started" Daylen stated "And my sister still has some tricks to play"

"My turn" Solona stated as she drew her next card "And now I play my trap card, Call of the Haunted, which allows me to summon back my Luster Dragon from my graveyard" The purple scaled Dragon appeared on the field again "And now I summon Kaibaman in attack mode" the small Kaiba like monster appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 200 Defence 700) "But he won't be around for long because now I activate his special ability, so now by tributing him, I can summon the great Blue Eyes White Dragon from my hand" Kaibaman was engulfed in a bright light and the large blue eyed, white scaled dragon appeared in his place (Level 8 Attack 3000 Defence 2500) "And now Blue Eyes, attack that Citrine with Burst Stream of Destruction" Blue Eyes unleashed a blast of blue fire which engulfed and destroyed Citrine.

Solona: 5900
Servis: 7200

"And I still have my Luster Dragon to attack with" Solona added "Now attack Emerald" Luster Dragon sent a blast of purple shards which destroyed Emerald.

Solona: 5900
Servis: 7100

"And now I will end my turn" Solona finished

"You're good" Servis stated "I can see why you're a skilled duellist. Now it's my turn and I'll start by summoning Gem Knight Alexandrite to the field in attack mode." A purple warrior made from rock and covered in gems appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1800 Defence 1200)

"What good is that going to do?" Syrus questioned "It doesn't have the attack power to destroy any of Solona's monsters"

"It will do when I activate these spell cards" Servis smirked "2 Gem Souls. Now by equipping these cards to Alexandrite, he gains 400 attack points for each one, so with 2, that gives him 800 more attack points" Alexandrite glowed as he gained more power (GKA Attack 1800-2600) "And now Alexandrite, take out that Luster Dragon" Alexandrite glowed as he punched Luster Dragon and destroyed the dragon again causing her Call of the Haunted to shatter as well.

Solona: 5200
Servis: 7100

"And that will do it for my turn" Servis finished

"This duel is sweet" Jaden smiled "This guy really knows how to duel"

"My sister may have the most powerful monster on the field, but Servis still has more life points" Daylen stated

"We'll just have to see what she does next" Theorn stated

"My turn" Solona stated and smiled at what she drew "And first off, I'll play my other facedown card, Oasis of Dragon Souls, this card brings back by Luster Dragon in defence mode though it becomes a wyrm type monster. Though that won't matter because I'm now sacrificing Luster Dragon in order to summon the more powerful version, Luster Dragon #2" A blue scaled version of Luster Dragon appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defence 1400) "But I'm not done, I now play Polymerization, you're not the only one who can use fusions, now I fuse my Blue Eyes on the field with a second one in my hand in order to summon Blue Eyes Twin Burst Dragon." The two headed Blue Eyes Dragon made of crystal appeared on the field (Level 10 Attack 3000 Defence 2500) "And now Twin Burst attack" One of the two heads of Twin Burst unleashed a blast of blue fire which engulfed Alexandrite, but when the smoke cleared, the monster was still there.

"Thanks to the effect of Gem Soul, by sacrificing it, Alexandrite isn't destroyed" Servis stated as one of his Gem Souls shattered (GKA Attack 2600-2200)

"But you still take damage" Solona stated as Servis lost life points

Solona: 5200
Servis: 6700

"And if you think you can save your Alexandrite then you're wrong" Solona added "My Twin Burst can attack twice per turn so now attack again" The second head unleashed a blast of blue magic which engulfed Alexandrite and the second Gem Soul shattered (GKA Attack: 2200-1800)

Solona: 5200
Servis: 5900

"And now Luster Dragon #2, finish that Alexandrite off" Solona ordered as Luster Dragon #2 unleashed a blast of fire which engulfed Alexandrite and with nothing to protect it this time, Alexandrite exploded

Solona: 5200
Servis: 5300

"I end my turn" Solona finished

"Great, now Solona has one of her most powerful monsters on her field" Alexis smiled

"And since Twin Burst can be destroyed in battle, Solona has the upper hand" Sereda added

"Well Servis has surprised us already" Aedan stated "So we just have to see what happens next"

"My move" Servis stated as he drew his next card and smiled at it "First of all, I activate the effect of Gem Knight Fusion in my graveyard, now by banishing one Gem Knight in my graveyard, the spell card comes back to my hand. So I banish Garnet." Servis removed his Garnet from play and added Gem Knight Fusion to his hand

"He must be preparing for a fusion summoning" Jaden smiled "I can't wait to see what this next fusion monster will be"

"Now I play the spell card Pot of Greed which allows me to draw 2 more cards" Servis stated as he drew two new cards from his deck "And now I play Gem Knight Fusion and fuse Gem Knights Sapphire and Crystal in my hand in order to fusion summon Gem Knight Aquamarine in attack mode" An aqua blue monster with a black cape appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 1400 Defence 2600) "And now Aquamarine, attack that Luster Dragon #2"

"Wait, why is he going that?" Syrus questioned "Luster Dragon #2 is a stronger monster"

"Yeah, it seems that Servis has miscalculated" Jaden added

"No I haven't" Servis smirked "I know that Aquamarine is weaker but he won't be when I play this spell card" he showed the spell card which made everyone gasp as it was the same card that caused Jaden and Zane's duel have very powerful monsters "I play the spell card Battle Fusion so now my Aquamarine gains attack points equal to the attack points of your Luster Dragon #2" Aquamarine glowed as he gained more attack points (GKA Attack 1400-3800) Then Aquamarine punched Luster Dragon #2 which caused the dragon to groan before shattering.

Solona: 3800
Servis: 5300

"And now I will lend my turn" Servis finished and Aquamarine's attack points returned to normal (GKA Attack 3800-1400)

"My turn" Solona stated as she drew her next card "And I summon Mirage Dragon in attack mode" A long yellow snake like dragon with greenish blue hair appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defence 600) "And then I will end my turn"

"Wait, why didn't she attack?" Jaden questioned "She could have taken Servis out with her monsters"

"Because she would have fallen into a trap Jaden" Alexis stated

"This is why you should do your homework and study" Aedan groaned "When Aquamarine is destroyed, Servis can return one card to Solona's hand so she didn't want to risk losing one of her best monsters"

Servis smiled "So I see you knew about the trap I had waiting" he stated "I'm impressed, but I still have another trick to play. I play the spell card Diffusion which separates Aquamarine into the 2 monsters I used to summon him, Gem Knight Sapphire and Gem Knight Crystal." A knight in white armour with crystals on appeared on the field ready to fight (Level 7 Attack 2450 Defence 1950) along with a pale blue warrior who had a barrier protecting him who knelt down in defence mode (Level 4 Attack 0 Defence 2100) "And while these monsters may not be powerful enough to take out that Twin Burst, this spell card will help with that, I play the spell Card Gem Cannon, here's how it works, I sacrifice a level 7 or higher Gem Knight monster and every card on your field will be destroyed"

"But that would leave Solona defenceless!" Theorn gasped

"Now cannon, destroy every card on her field with the power of my Crystal" Servis stated as a large cannon appeared on the field, Gem Knight Crystal was absorbed and then the cannon fired a blast which created a large explosion on Solona's field, when the smoke cleared, Solona's Twin Burst and Mirage Dragon were gone "There is a downside to my cannon" Servis added "I can't attack this turn so now I end my turn"

"Great, now Solona has no monsters and less life points" Theorn stated

"Well Solona still has some of her best cards to use" Daylen stated

"That's right" Aristide smiled "My daughter never gives up until the Duel is over"

"My turn" Solona stated as she drew her next card, when she looked at the card, she smiled "Well, I hope you're ready to face one of my great beasts again, I summon Lord of D in attack mode." The dragon priest with the hat made from dragon bones appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1200 Defence 1100) "While he may not be strong enough to take out your Sapphire, he won't be around for long, I discard this monster from my hand to activate it's ability, Sage with Eyes of Blue, now by discarding him and tributing my Lord of D, I can summon my third Blue Eyes White Dragon from my deck" Lord of D was engulfed in a bright light and then Solona's third Blue Eyes White Dragon appeared in his place. "And now, Blue Eyes destroy that Sapphire." Blue Eyes unleashed a blast of blue fire which destroyed Sapphire "And now I will end my turn"

"My move" Servis stated "And I will summon Gem Knight Amber in attack mode" a small knight wearing orange armour, holding a flaming sword in one hand and a ball of fire in the other appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defence 1400) "And now I play his special ability, now by discarding my Gem Knight Lazuil from my hand, I can get back my Gem Knight Garnet which I banished earlier. But also, Lazuil's ability activates, when she is sent to the graveyard by an effect, I can add a Gem Knight Normal Monster in my graveyard to my hand so I choose my Sapphire. Now I will throw this card facedown and end my turn"

Solona drew her next card' I can deal damage but he might have a trap waiting for me' she though 'I better play this safe' "I play the spell card Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy that facedown card" A tornado blew onto the field which blew the facedown card away, revealing it to be Mirror Force "It's a good job I destroyed that card then" she smiled "Now Blue Eyes, Attack Amber" Blue Eyes unleashed a blast of fire which engulfed Amber and destroyed him.

Solona: 3800
Servis: 3900

"And now I will end my turn" Solona finished

"Great job" Servis smiled "You saved yourself from falling into my trap, but now it's time to face another one of my Fusion Monsters, I summon Gem Knight Lapis in attack mode" a small purple female knight appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 1200 Defence 100) "Then I play the spell card Polymerization to fuse Gem Knights Garnet and Sapphire in my hand." The spirits of Garnet and Sapphire appeared on the field which then merged together "I Fusion Summon, Gem Knight Ruby in attack mode" A large, bright red armoured knight with a blue cape and a large axe appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2500 Defence 1300) "And while he may not be strong enough to defeat your Blue Eyes but his special ability will take care of that, now by sacrificing my Lapis, Ruby gains her attack points until the end of this turn" Lapis turned into a beam of light which was absorbed by Ruby's axe (GKR Attack 2500-3700) "And now Ruby, slay her dragon" Ruby swung his axe which sliced through Blue Eyes and caused the monster to shatter.

Solona: 3100
Servis: 3900

"And now I will end my turn" Servis finished

"And now it is my turn" Solona said as she drew her card and smiled at what she drew "I play one of my favourite cards, the spell card Dragon's Mirror"

"All right" Jaden cheered "One of Solona's best cards"

"Now I fuse the 3 blue eyes in my graveyard in order to Fusion Summon, the all might Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon" Solona claimed as her 3 Blue Eyes merged to form the massive 3 headed blue scaled dragon (Level 12 Attack 4500 Defence 3800) "And now my ultimate Dragon attacks your Ruby" Each of the three heads fired a blast which combined into one and struck Ruby causing the Knight to moan before shattering

Solona: 3100
Servis: 1900

"And now I will end my turn" Solona finished

"Great" Aedan smiled "Now Solona has her best monster on the field"

"But this Servis has impressed us with his duelling" Theorn stated "He really is a skilled duellist and deserves his position in Obelisk Blue"

"We'll just see how he comes out of this now" Neria stated

"You do not disappoint Solona" Servis stated "You really are a great Duellist, but let's see how you do against my strongest monster" he then drew his next card "And I'll start by activating the Dark Room of Mass Production which allows me to get 2 Normal Monsters back to my Hand so Garnet and Sapphire return to my hand. Then I will activate the effect of Gem Knight Fusion in my graveyard, now by removing Emerald from play, the spell returns to my hand." Gem Knight Fusion returned to Servis; hand along with his Garnet and Sapphire "And now I will fuse Garnet and Sapphire together along with a second Gem Knight Lapis which allows me to summon my most powerful Gem Knight. Beyond the power of Gem Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond" The three Gem Knights were sucked into a portal and merged to form a large female knight with a sword and diamonds on her armour (Level 10 Attack 3400 Defence 2000) "However I can't use her ability since I don't have another Gem Knight on my field. But with the power of Shrink, I can half the attack points of your Ultimate Dragon." Ultimate Dragon groaned as he lost some of his power. (BEUD Attack 4500-2250) "Now attack that Dragon" Lady Brilliant Diamond slashed her sword and slashed each of the heads of Ultimate Dragon and destroyed the Dragon.

Solona: 1950
Servis: 1900

"And now I will end my turn" Servis finished "But on your next turn, you better do something as when I summon out another Gem Knight, I can sacrifice it to use Brilliant Diamond's effect and then I can summon another Gem Knight Fusion Monster from my extra deck, ignoring its summoning conditions. But that will have to wait for now. It's your move"

"Well my sister has to draw a good card this turn" Daylen stated

"That's right" Theorn stated "She may have more life points but she has no monsters and even if she summons one out, that Lady Brilliant Diamond will take it out and a second Fusion monster will defeat her"

"Solona has pulled out of situations like this before" Neria stated

"I'm sure she can find a way to get out of this" Sereda agreed

'This is my last turn' Solona thought as she looked at her deck 'at least this is just a friendly duel so there is nothing at stake for me' then she drew her card "I play the spell card Pot of Greed which allows me to draw two new cards" Solona stated as she drew 2 extra cards from her deck and she smiled at them "Now I play the spell card Magical Stone Excavation, now by discarding two cards in my hand, I can get my Dragon's Mirror back to my hand. Then I will play it which allows me to fuse my 2 Luster dragons, my Mirage Dragon, my ultimate Dragon and my Twin Burst Dragon in order to summon my most powerful monster. Come on out Five Headed Dragon" the large five headed dragon with each head made from a different Element appeared on the field (Level 12 Attack 5000 Defence 5000) "And now I play Premature Burial, now by paying 800 life points, I get my Lord of D back from my Graveyard." Solona's Dragon Priest also appeared on the field.

Solona: 1150
Servis: 1900

Servis smiled and realised that this duel was over, there was nothing he could do "Well done, you win this duel, so go on, end this duel now then"

Solona nodded "Now Five Headed Dragon, destroy that Gem Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond" she ordered as each head fired a blast of its own element which combined into one big blast which struck Lady Brilliant Diamond and destroyed her.

Solona: 1150
Servis: 300

"And now Lord of D, end this duel" Solona finished as Lord of D sent a blast of magic which struck Servis and ended the Duel.

Solona: 1150 (Winner)
Servis: 0000

Servis smiled as he deactivated his Duel Disk "You really are a skilled duellist" he stated "But I want a rematch in the future"

"I'm looking forward to it" Solona smiled as she shook Servis' hand

Then the rest of Solona's friends came along "Great Duel Solona" Sereda stated

"You made quite a comeback there" Aedan added

"That was a sweet Duel" Jaden smiled and he looked at Servis "I hope we get a chance to throw down one day"

Servis looked at Jaden "Maybe you'll get your chance next school year" he said "Well it's been nice meeting you all"

"It's been nice meeting you as well Servis" Daylen smiled "Well, we better all get ready to go home; the ship comes in a few days"

Solona and all her friends began going their separate ways but none of them noticed the wicked sneer on Servis' face.

...

Later at night, Servis was walking through the Northern Forest where he soon came to a large stone table with ancient Ritual stuff around including a strange shrine. Servis knelt in front of the shrine and placed his hand on it, and then a glowing blue figure appeared in front of him wearing a white rode with a large white hat "Well my minion" the figure stated "Was your mission a success?"

"It was master Gordian" Servis stated "I have managed to gain the Amell Girl's trust"

"Good, this will be important for our master plan to bring the girl to us" Gordian stated "Livius and the others are waiting for the Elder One to choose who to send to assist you, as skilled as you are and despite my faith in you, the Elder One will not accept failure this time and is taking no chances, your assistance will meet you at the old abandoned Dorm Tomorrow Night to discuss the plans, until them, maintain your friendship with the Amell Girl"

"Understood Master Gordian" Servis stated as the figure faded and Servis began to make a wicked laugh "Soon Amell Girl, you will belong to the Venatori and help us bring the Old God Cards together and we shall take over the world"

Chapter End:

Notes:

Well, now my next part of the Dragon-X series has begun. This is a story of my own setting but still in the GX universe, it is set between Seasons 1 and 2 and will feature the Venatori as the main villains. XYZ monsters and Synchro monsters will be making a major appearance later on with the new cards added to character decks. I'm still looking for deck ideas for some future characters I'm planning to add but I need to try and find spellcasters and Warrior decks. Also, the only GX characters that will be making a major appearance in this story will be Jaden, Chazz, Alexis, Crowler and Zane.

Gem Knight Created cards:

Gem Soul: Equip spell: Equip to a Gem knight monster, it gains 300 attack points, if a monster equipped with this card would be destroyed, destroy this card instead.

Gem Cannon: Normal Spell: Tribute 1 level 7 or higher Gem Knight Monster, destroy every card on your opponent's field, you cannot conduct your Battle phase on the turn you activate this card.
