The Fourth Technique: A Yu-Gi-Oh Story

Chapter 12

3rd Person POV

[Synchro class was cancelled so Akiza decided to hang out with JP. It was her goal to help him feel more welcome. So far it wasn't working]

JP: Akiza, I know that you're trying to be nice and all but you don't have to do this.

Akiza: I just want you to feel safe at this school.

JP: Trust me. I have more secrets than you would want to know.

Akiza: You can tell me when you're ready. I just want you two know that I know how it feels to have powers that you have a hard time controlling.

JP: Thanks, Akiza.

[A man walked over towards the two]

???: Akiza, you shouldn't be associating yourself with this person.

Akiza: I'm allowed to hang out with any I choose to, Sayer.

Sayer: You're an important person of the Arcadia club. You don't need any distractions.

Akiza: I told you that I left.

Sayer: Sorry but no one leaves.

[JP stands in between]

JP: Back off, man.

Sayer: Oh! So you think you're some big man? You can summon 6 different ways. Big deal. I have more power than you could ever imagine!

JP: Do you really want to test that out?

Sayer: As a matter of fact I do.

[Suddenly JP's aura raises to impossible levels. The ground begins to shake]

Akiza: JP, you need to calm down.

JP: Way past that.

[The ground starts to shake violently. All the students inside stumble outside to see what is happening. A crowd then forms]

Sayer: So you make the earth shake. Big deal.

Akiza: Sayer, you need to walk away now.

JP: It's too late for him to run. He's sealed his fate.

[The specatators all watch. Declan watches from inside the school. Suddenly large flames cover the ground closing JP and Sayer inside. The Signers and the Dark Signers knew what was going on. A shadow duel]

Akiza: JP, please don't.

[JP couldn't hear. His eyes began to glow. His signer mark glowed a mix of purple and crimson]

JP: You aren't running away from this, Sayer.

[A lasso attached to JP's arm suddenly lashes on to Sayer and then disappears]

Sayer: What was that?

JP: Another guarantee that you won't escape.

[JP starts to glow]

JP: Go Barian/Photon/Zexal Transformation!

[JP suddenly wore an outfit that was a combination of Barian, Photon, and Zexal. JP then held up a blank card]

JP: The loser of this duel has his soul placed in this card. Once I win and you're in here, I'll rip it in half. That way you'll never return.

[The crowd gasps. There was no turning back now. Sayer looked confident but on the inside he was begging for his life]

JP: Shall we begin?

[JP activates his duel disk. Sayer does the same]

JP: I'll let you go first. Consider that the only mercy you'll get from me.
