Cardfight!! Vanguard G: Shadows

➳ 6: The Joker

After the incident in the café, Akari started to be more anxious around her friends she met. She started to trust less people even the ones who are called her friends now.

“Tch, scummy traitor.” Akari crossed her arms while walking her way back home. It was pretty late at night but it haven't pass her curfew yet.

She walk back to her apartment and immediately lay down on bed not bothering to change her uniform to her sleep attire.

Once she stare up the ceiling for a few moments her eyes started to get heavy and it drifted her to sleep.

In the near alleyway, where the deck was burnt to ashes walked a boy wearing a Japanese cat mask or maybe known as Inukami along with two other men wearing the same type of mask however only different colored. One wore who walk in the middle wore a red design mask while the other two wore a blue designed mask.

Once they arrive in their destination, they see a decent amount of people cardfighting.

“Hm idiots cardfighting this late?” the red mask thought before just walking pass by them.

“Oi, what are you doing here?” one of the person who was cardfighting yelled at him.

The boy glanced before giving a short small hum. He had his hands on his pockets of his jacket.

“you are not invited here.”

“I didn't ask if I was.”

“Why you—” the cardfighter was about to threatened the mask man interrupted him.

“Take me to your leader.” He look at him straight in the eye.

“Excuse me?”

“You heard me. I don't like repeating on what I said.”

“You have to get through me.” He tidy up his deck from his current fight.

“Is that a challenge?” He took out his own deck with a sadistic playful grin.

“I'm sure it is.”

“Let's play then, boy.” he walk to a vacant fight table.

The two players put down their starter, shuffle their deck and drew 5 cards.

“Stand Up (The) Vanguard!”

(OPENING HERE)

“D-damage check.. (Dragonic Overlord “The Legend”).”

The mask man smirk before shaking his head. “Your first mistake was challenging me.” He taunted. “Now, are you a man of your word or a little chicken that's going to run back crying to his mommy.”

His eyes widened as the fighter who lost clenched his fist preparing to punch the mask man. “SHUT UP! YOU SON OF A—”.

Before the punch the mask man grabbed his wrist and tackle his leg pinning him down to the ground. “I only ask you for one simple thing and this is how you answer me? You do know I can do much more than cardfighting.” He was about to take something out of his pocket. It was a black colored object by the glimpse of it.

“Alright that's enough, Ren.”

The mask man turn to the person who said that before smirking.

“well well well, if it isn't his majesty, Kuro Anima.” He let go off the boy who lost his cardfight leaving him scott free.

“You're not invited here. Leave.” the 'King' of the underground cardfighters ordered as Ren clicked his tongue.

“there's no sign here that says I'm not invited.”
