Apple Bloom!” said Applejack as she wake Apple Bloom up. “Come on, time to get up. Breakfast is done, so hurry up.” Apple Bloom got out of bed and stretched a little. She walked over to her desk and looked at her deck. “Great Silver Wolf, Garmore. I knew it, it’s not Royal Paladin. It wasn’t a dream.” After Apple Bloom went down stairs and sat at the table. “Since there' no school today. after breakfast your going to Card Capital, right?” asked Applejack. Apple Bloom stayed quiet. “I have chores to do. But after I’m done I might come and see you.” She said eating her breakfast. “Thanks for breakfast.” said Apple Bloom as she left the table barely eating any of her food. “I don’t understand what is up with Apple Bloom she is acting like her old self.” Apple Bloom was standing outside of Card Capital. Apple Bloom decided not to go in and then walked away. Apple Bloom was later sitting at the park. ‘What is going on. What happened that time wasn't a dream? Then, what should I do. Losing the Royal Paladins. After we have been thru so much. It’s not far. This is not the deck I’m used to. And what is worst everyone thinks this is I won nationals with. I don't feel like I could fight with them.’ “Apple Bloom.” said a voice from behind Apple Bloom. “Spike!” Apple Bloom said as she looked to see who it was. “What are you doing?” “Actually, a strange thing happened.” “What strange thing?” “Well? Do you mind looking thru my deck?” “Yeah, sure.” Spike looked thru the deck. “The Gold Paladins.” “Does my deck look odd to you?” “No, is there something wrong with your deck?” “No.” ‘I was hoping Spike could see the problem.’ Then she remembered what he said. “Spike do you mind if I see your deck?” “Sure.” said Spike as he gave Apple Bloom his deck. ‘It’s not Kagero! Spike’s deck also changed.So what he said was true?’ “What's wrong?” asked Spike “Spike didn’t you notice your own deck has changed?” What are you saying?” “I know how I sound. But you have to hear me out.” “Say it.” Apple Bloom told Spike her story. “In short me and yours, mines and decks was seized by an unknown power. And it was replaced by another deck?” “You don’t remember any of that?” “No, this is my deck.” ‘As I thought, other than me no one else notice. Everyone I ask says I have always used the Gold Paladin. But he’s going thru the samething as me. So why doesn't he remember as I do.’ “It looks like you don’t believe me.”said Apple Bloom as she got up she was about to leave. “Who said I didn’t believe you? My memories tell me that this is my deck. However, I don’t think you're the kind to lie. Follow me.” said Spike as he walked off. They walked to a table in the park. “Here, is where we’ll fight. If we fight I might catch a hint.” said Spike Apple Bloom placed her deck on the table. “Are you ready? Imagen it.” asked Spike Then Spike and Apple Bloom found themselves on Cray but unlike the times before it looked dark and cloudy. “This is Cray.” whispered Apple Bloom “What’s wrong? Let’s go.” said Spike “Stand up.” “The” only Spike “Vanguard!” “Grassland Breeze, Sagramore.” “Lizard Soldier, Sishin.” Spike turned into a dragon with a spear. “Well?” “Everything feels normal so far.” “Well let’s wait and see.” “Here I go I ride Red River Dragoon.” Spike turned into a earth with a lance. “My turn, I ride Evil Slaying Swordsman, Haugan.” She turned into an earth pony with a red mane and tail warring red and gold armor with a sword. “I call Precipice Whirlwind, Sagramore and Knight of Elegant Skills, Gareth.” Then a colt earth pony in silver and gold armor with a bow appeared as well as a well as an earth pony with a brown mane and tale in gold and red armor with a sword. “Sorry if I mess up, this my first time using this clan.” “Okay, keep going.” “Well here I go, with a boost from Whirlwind, Sagramore, Haugan attacks.” 13000 to 8000 “I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check.” (no trigger) “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “Whirlwind, Sagramore skill activates, I drop and draw. Then I attack with Knight of Elegant Skills, Gareth.” “I don’t guard.” Gareth ran up and slashed Red River Dragoon. (no trigger) “You sound nervous, but you couldn’t tell by the way you are playing.” “Thanks.” “My turn, I stand and draw. I ride Thunderstorm Dragoon.” he transformed into a pony that looks like Red River Dragoon but he was on a dragon. “I call Djinn of the Lightning Flare and Brightjet Dragon.” a genie like pony and a red dragon appeared. “Brightjet Dragon attacks. Skill activated, if my claw is less than your hoof than 3000 power is added.” 11000 to 7000 “No guard.” Birghtjet Dragon came up and shocked her. “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “Thunderstorm Dragoon attacks.” “No guard.” “Drive trigger check.” (no trigger) “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “Djinn attacks, Djinn gain 2000 power if my vanguard is a Narukami.” 10000 to 7000 “I guard with Blessing Owl.” An owl appeared to block the attack. ‘Spike is using Narukami deck well. It’s like his deck wasn’t replaced in the first place.’ “My turn is over.” “Stand and draw!” ‘Grade two, right now i would normally I would….’ she remembered the time she rides Blaster Blade. “I ride Knight of Superior Skills, Beaumains.” As Apple Bloom said that Spike pictured her turning into a earth pony with white and blue armor with a sword. “Is something wrong?” “No, nothing at all continue.” “Okay, I ride. Then I move Gareth back and call Sacred Guardian Beast, Nemean Lion.” ‘For a moment my memory respond.’ ‘Something is up, maybe he’s noticing something.’ “With support from Gareth, Nemean Lion attacks.” 16000 to 10000 “I guard with Zephyr Kid, Hayate.” 16000 to 20000 “Now with a boost from Precipice Whirlwind, Sagramore, Beaumains attacks.” 16000 to 10000 “I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check.” She ran up and slashed Spike. “Damage trigger check, draw trigger. Stand and draw, Apple Bloom I can feel your play is off. You don’t seem like yourself.” “I just thought it would come to me. But I just don’t feel like I’m fighting as myself.” “You will have to try harder if you want to convince me. Because you and me are different, because I can fight with this deck. I’ll make you learn that.Behold, Ascend from the broken seal from within with your determination! Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion!” Spike turned into a dragon with double sided spear and with lighting wings. “Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion? No way, I can’t believe it.” “I’m not going to take it easy on you, Apple Bloom. So get your head back into the game. I call Lizard Soldier, Riki.” A dragon with a staff appeared. “Brightjet Dragon attacks.” 11000 to 10000 “I guard with Precipice Whirlwind, Sagramore.” 11000 to 15000 “Nwxt with a boost from Riki, Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion attacks.” 18000 to 10000 “I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check! First (no trigger), second check, get critical trigger. The critical will go to Vermillion and Djinn will get the 5000 power.” He slashed Apple Bloom with his spear. “Damage trigger check! First, (no trigger)Second!” “Apple Bloom stand trigger!” “I-I-I give the 5000 power to Beaumains and I stand Nemean Lion.” “Djinn attacks, with its skill he gains 2000 power.” (no trigger) “Already at five damage.” “Why didn’t you guard?” “I was to surprised when you rided Vermillion.” “Do you have confidence in beating me next turn?” “I stand and draw.” ‘I can’t do it! At this rate.’ “What’s the matter loss the will to fight?” “Not a chance, I ride Battlefield Storm, Sagramore.” She turned into an earth pony in silver, gold and blue armor with two swords. “I call Sleygal Sword and Elixir Sommelier.” A blue wolf with a sword in his mouth and a unicorn holding a small statue appeared. “I activate Sleygal Sword’s skill four time to give him 8000 power. With a boost from Elixir Sommelier, Sleygal Sword attacks.” 22000 to 11000 “I don’t guard.” The wolf jumped up and slashed him with his sword. (no trigger) “With a boost from Precipice Whirlwind, Sagramore, Battlefield Storm, Sagramore attacks.” 16000 to 11000 “I guard with Wyvern Supply Unit and Yellow Gem Carbuncle.” “Drive trigger check, first (no trigger). Second, it’s a critical trigger.” “Still the attack will fail.” “All effects go to Nemean Lion. With a boost from Gareth, Nemean Lion attacks.” 21000 to 11000 “I guard with Old Dragon Mage and Red River Dragoon. Also Brightjet Dragon intercepts.” “My turn is over.” ‘I did three attack and even got a critical trigger. And I was only able to do one damage. With my hoof and my two intercepts I might….’ “When did you turn back into a loser. You won the Vanguard National Championship and you even beat Flip Side. Who I couldn’t defeat. Where did your confidence go?” “But that when I’ve been fighting with my real deck. Not this, these aren’t the ones I have played with. How am I supposed to play like I used too.” “Just get your head together. I thought you were not the type to blame her problems on her deck.” “But….” “In a cardfight there is one thing you can rely on and it's not the cards. You have been playing with that old clan for so long it’s impossible for you to see playing without them. That kind of thinking limits your ability. It’s time to break those barriers down. Final Turn! I stand and draw! I call Djinn of the Lightning Spark and Plasmabite Dragon. Now watch this. This is the power to break all limit. Limit Break!” said Spike as he flipped cards in his damage zone face down. “You know how to do a limit break?” “You can only activate this skill if you have four or more cards in the damage zone.” “So it’s a skill that can only be activated in the late game.” “These abilities are stronger than you ever say before. The power to break the limit. Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion gains 2000 power and when this unit attacks it hits all my opponent's front row units at the same time.” “What! He is going to attack three units at once?” “Yes, crushing everything in it way. With lightning guiding my way to victory. This is Vermillion Thunder bolt.” “This is wrong. I know you wouldn’t use that kind of strategy. You use Kagero. You should use Dragonic Overlord. Remember, Spike.” “I do remember. I got glimpses of play with them.” “Then…..” “I doesn’t mean anything because I’m using a new deck know. We have to embrace what we have been given.” “I’m going to have to intercept.” “You can’t intercept. It’s because I’m attacking all the units at the same time. With a boost from Riki, Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion attacks Nemean Lion, Sleygal Sword and Battlefield Storm, Sagramore at the sametime.” “I can only guard with the cards in my hoof. I don’t guard.” Spike check his twin drive both cards were not triggers. He roared and summoned lightning that hit Apple Bloom and her two units in her front row. (no trigger) “That’s the end.” said Spike “I thought you were going to win.” said Apple Bloom ‘I can’t stop shaking. What a power….. Limit Break. Spike is playing like he always had those cards. He’s completely different than me.’ “What are you looking at?” “I didn’t use the clan till now. I didn’t think it will be simple to use.” “Of course. But Apple Bloom, what you said might be true. During this fight I felt uneasy at some points. I get it the decks we are using they are not the same ones we are used to.” “You understand.” “Yeah, but who and how did they do it? And what is there purpose for doing this?” Then the TV next to the went on. “Welcome to Vanguard Fight Circuit! Vanguard Fight Circuit or shot VF Circuit. Is a tournament were fighters from all over the world get together to see who is the best. And now a word from our sponsor.” said the advertisement Then the colt Apple Bloom say the other day appeared. “This is going to be a huge Vanguard event. With Vanguard being popular in more and more kingdoms. As well them have their own National Championship I thought I would be a good idea to start the VF Circuit. This is a way for cardfighters from different kingdom to battle one another. To see who is the strongest in the world.” he said the the screen just showed the VF Circuit logo. “What’s wrong Apple Bloom?” asked Spike as he say Apple Bloom had a shocked look on her face. “That colt, me and him fought and then my deck changed.” “What?” he said surprised. He looked at the logo. “Strongest in the world. Count me in.” “Seriously!” “To find out what happened, we have no choice but to enter. He’s the only one with answers and they only way to see him is by entering the tournament.” “Yeah, but how do we enter? Do you need an invitation or what?” “If you want to go you can find a way. I’m going to find a way on to the VF Circuit. I’m sure you will find a way. Maybe our paths will cross.” sai Spike as walked away “I will get there just wait and see.” Apple Bloom was walking thru Ponyville. ‘The strongest fighters are gathering in the Circuit. What am I supposed to do to enter.’ Soon Apple Bloom entered Card Capital. “Hello!” “About time your hear.” said Diamond Tiara “Did you got caught up doing your chores?” asked Silver Spoon “I will say this is amazing.” said Rainbow Dash “Finally you're here Apple Bloom.” said Rarity “What going on?” asked Apple Bloom “Look here, team Crusaders just got an invitation.” “That logo looks like the Vanguard Fight Circuit.” Then she relived it was for the VF circuit. “That right you better get ready. Because this team is going international.” “It looks like you're in the big time.” said Rainbow Dash Author's Note link

Don’t you watch the news?” asked Silver Spoon “Right, and i don’t read the newspaper.” “That is not something to brag about.” “The Vanguard Fight Circuit is going to be the biggest Vanguard tournament the world has ever seen.” said Rainbow Dash “And they send an invitation here. They must know that I fight here.” said Diamond Tiara “Sorry, but only members of team Crusaders are invited.” said Rainbow Dash ‘This event is then only chase to see that colt again.’ thought Apple Bloom “Rarity I would like to participate in the Vanguard Fight Circuit.” “I had a feeling you would say that Apple Bloom. However this competition is open to teams of only three.” said Rarity “So that mean I need two more members.” “We’ll the invitation say that at least one member of the team must be from team Crusaders. It doesn't matter who the other two members are. Who will you pick?” “This is though?” “I’m your best choice.” said Diamond Tiara “Ah- Sweetie Belle.” said Apple Bloom as Sweetie Belle came thru the door. “Why am I being ignored?” “I was wondering if you would participate in the Vanguard Fight Circuit together?” “I guess you say the invitation then. If you're going then the other players can be anyone right?” said Sweetie Belle “I want you on my team because we are friends and we went to the national tournament together.” “Alright, I’ll go.” “Alright. Then next is….” “Well it obviously going to be me.” said Diamond Tiara “The team wouldn’t be complete without Scootaloo.” “Ignored again! And why would you chose her over me?” “Well it might have something with she actually wins games.” said Silver Spoon “About that, I don’t know you can bring her along as well. Lately she has been hang out with team Handsome.” said Sweetie Belle “Now that you mentioned it. I’ll go have to look.” Apple Bloom went to the place she knew where team Handsome was. “It’s been awhile since I have been here.” Then she entered. She looked around. “I don’t see Scootaloo.” “Hey there, Apple Bloom.” said a voice Apple Bloom looked and saw Thunderlane. “Thunderlane. It’s been a while.” “So what brings you here? Are you looking for a cardfight?” “No, I’m here looking for Scootaloo, but it looks like she is not her.” “If you're looking for Scootaloo she’s right over there.” he said pointing to where Scootaloo was battling. “Alright, I won.” said Scootaloo “Scootaloo!” said a voice Scootaloo looked to who it is and say Apple Bloom. “Hey, Apple Bloom.” They found themselves a table. “It’s been awhile, are you doing well?” “Yeah I was wondering when we were going to see each other again.” “So what are with the bandanas?” she asked as she noticed them “Actually I joined Thunderlane’s team.” “Oh really, I thought you would never join because of Rumble.” Then Rumble came in. “Oh hello, Apple Bloom what are you doing here?” said Rumble not going after Scootaloo at all. “Wait you're not going after Scootaloo any more? I guess his crush is over.” Both Apple Bloom and Scootaloo chuckled. ‘If she only knew why she is acting so normal.’ thought Scootaloo “So what brings you heard today? It’s rare you come here.” “It’s about this!” said Apple Bloom putting down the envelope on the table. “Isn’t that an invitation to the Vanguard Fight Circuit!” “What!?” said Thunderlane, Pipsqueak and Blosemforth “What is this thing all about anyway?” asked Rumble “The VF Circuit, is a tournament with top players from all around the world.” said Scootaloo “Only chosen players are being sent invitations.” said Thunderlane “Scootaloo, I want you to participate in the VF Circuit with me.” said Apple Bloom “Me, in the VF Circuit!” said Scootaloo “Scootaloo what about are deal!” said Rumble “Wait? What deal?” asked Apple Bloom “Well you see, I made a deal with Thunderlane. He said if I join his team then Rumble will stop bothering me. And so far Rumble is acting normal or at least not doing any lovey dovey stuff. Like getting me to marry him. And now I’m free from the torture.” said Scootaloo “But I want you to participate in VF Circuit with me.” “Can’t you find somepony else?” asked Rumble “It has to be Scootaloo. She’s my friend, also she believed in me when I started playing Vanguard, and who i participated with in the national tournament.” “Wow she is in a dilemma.” said Snips “The VF Circuit where the strongest fighters gather.” “Scootaloo are you going to break our deal?” asked Rumble ‘I don’t want Rumble after me like before. But I don’t want to let my friend down.’ thought Scootaloo “Very well then. Let’s fight, Apple Bloom. If you want Scootaloo that badly on your team then battle me and Rumble.” “No, if Apple Bloom’s going to cardfight it’s going to be me. I will decide what to do with my own fight. I won’t let you two fight for me.” said Scootaloo “But you're just going to lose on purpose and go to the VF Circuit.” said Rumble “You think I would do that. I want to keep the deal going. But I want to go to the VF Circuit. That’s why I’ll decide where I’ll go with my own fight. If Apple Bloom wins, I’ll go to the VF Circuit. If I win, I’ll stay with team Handsome.” “Then we will step back on this. Because I know she fights with everything she has.” said Thunderlane “Let’s settle this.” said Scootaloo “Let’s do this.” said Apple Bloom They went to a table to play. “Stand up, Vanguard!” “Grassland Breeze, Sagramore.” “Beast Deity, White Tiger.” Scootaloo turned into a White metal Tiger who stand up on two legs. “I’ll go first!” said Apple Bloom then she drawed her card. ‘I am still not used to this deck, but in order to participate in the VF Circuit with Scootaloo, I cannot lose this game.’ “I ride Knight of Elegant Skills, Gareth. I end my turn.” ‘I can’t think of what is at stake here I have to play to the best of my abilities.’ “I ride Screaming’ and Dancing Announcer, Shout. I move White Tiger, and then I call two Almighty Reporter.” Two screen head robots appeared. “With a boost from Almighty Reporter, Beast Deity White Tiger attacks.” White Tiger ran up and slashed Gareth. “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “I activate Almighty Reporter’s skill. When he boost an attack that hits my opponent's vanguard he returns to my hoof. It’s a pretty good skill. When you attack you call units to attack but this decreases the cards in your hoof. So you might not have enough cards to defend with next turn. This card can cover up that weakness. I can't stay the same as I was during the National Tournament. I have been training and strengthening my deck.” “Come on Scootaloo, you can do it.” cheered Rumble “Boosted by Almighty Reporter, Screaming’ and Dancing Announcer, Shout attacks.” “I don’t guard!” “Drive trigger check.” (no trigger) Shout hit Gareth with one of his tentacles. (no trigger) Then Scootaloo add Almighty Reporter from the field to her hoof. “Now it’s my turn, stand and draw! I ride Knight of Superior Skills, Beaumains. I call Charging Chariot Knight and Charjgal.” Then an earth pony with a spear in a chariot pulled by wolves appeared and a wolf with a two sided lance in his mouth. “As usual, you’re good with Nova Grappler, but I’m not falling behind. Chariot Knight attack, I activate his skill when he attack if my hoof is smaller than my opponent he gains 3000 power.” Chariot Knight charged in and stabbed Shout with his spear. “Damage trigger check.” (critical trigger) “With support from Charjgal, Knight of Superior Skills, Beaumains attacks.” “I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check.” (no trigger) Beaumains ran up and slashed Shout. (no trigger) “That’s the end of my turn.” ‘I have even out the damage but what do I do next. What should I do after this. No I can’t worry now. I’m going to the VF Circuit with Scootaloo.’ “I ride Marvelous Hani.” She turned into a metal cactus. “I call Brutal Jack and two Almighty Reporter. Jack’s counterblast. Jack lose its restraint and attacks Beaumains.” 11000 to 10000 “I guard with Weapons Dealer, Gwydion.” 11000 to 15000 “Boosted by Almighty Reporter, Marvelous Hani attacks.” 13000 to 10000 “I guard with Elixir Sommelier.” 13000 to 20000 “Drive trigger check, stand trigger. I give 5000 power to White Tiger and stand Jack. With support from Almighty Reporter, White Tiger attacks.” Tiger ran up and slash her. “Damage trigger check, critical trigger all effects go to my vanguard.” “Because White Tiger hit I return Almighty Reporter to my hoof. And Jack attacks Charging Chariot Knight.” Jack fired a laser at Charging Chariot Knight. “I stand and draw!” ‘My new comrades lend me your power.’ “I ride Great Silver Wolf, Garmore. Counterblast! I call Sacred Guardian Beast, Nemean Lion. Then I call Battlefield Storm, Sagramore. Nemean Lion attacks.” 8000 to 7000 “I guard with Almighty Reporter.” 8000 to 12000 “Charjgal boost and soulblast. When Charjgal boost Garmore by soulblasting a card and Garmore gains 5000 power.” 21000 to 7000 “That's 21000 power. I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check, first.(no trigger) Second, draw trigger! I add 5000 power to Battlefield Storm, Sagramore and draw.” Garmore ran up then jumped and slashed Hani. (no trigger) “Battlefield Storm, Sagramore attacks your vanguard. And also Counterblast to add 3000 power.” Sagramore jumped up and slashed Hami. (no trigger) “It looks like Apple Bloom has pushed Scootaloo to four damage.” said Snips “Scootaloo is not going to give up that easily.” said Rumble “My turn.” ‘What is this it feels like Apple Bloom is different’ “No it’s just my imagination. I should stay apart.” “That’s right, don't worry about being apart, just stay alert.” said Thunderlane “I ride Asura Kaiser. I move White Tiger back and call Tough Boy and Moai the Great.” Then an pegasus pony with two floating heads appeared. “I activate Jack’s counterblast. Jack attacks with support from Tough Boy.” 19000 to 10000 “I use Nemean Lion’s especial intercept.” Nemean Lion Move in front of Garmore. 19000 to 20000 “Boosted by Almighty Reporter, Asura Kaiser attacks.” 17000 to 10000 “I don’t guard!” “Drive trigger check, first.” (no trigger but a grade 3) “Alright.” said Thunderlane “With Asura Kaiser skill I stand Jack. Cesond check.” (no trigger but grade 3) “Another one.” said Snip, Snails, and Rumble “I stand Tough Boy.” Asura Kaiser slashed Garmore. (no trigger) “Now the damage is even.” said Snips “And Scootaloo can attack two more times.” said Thunderlane “Boosted by Tough Boy, Jack attacks.” 19000 to 10000 “I don’t guard!” Jack hit Garmore with a laser. (no trigger) “With a boost from White Tiger, Moai the Great attacks. When this card is boosted by a Nova Grappler unit it gains 2000 power.” “I guard with Gwydion and Haugan.” 17000 to 20000 “She was able to guard it.” said Rumble “It’s my turn I stand and draw. I call Beaumains, Gareth and Blessing Owl.” Then a white owl appeared. “Apple Bloom could have used thouse card to keep her damage ate four but she saved them for her attack this turn.” said Thunderlane “I activate Blessing Owl’s skill. When he is place on the rear-guard he can give 2000 power to a Gold Paladin. I give it to Sagramore.” ‘I have 25000 in shield with Jack’s intercept. It’s because of those grade three’s i drew last turn. They gave me more attacks but they are useless right now.’ “With a boost from Gareth, Beaumains attacks.” 18000 to 11000 ‘I should stop this attack and use all my remaining cards on the Vanguard's attack. As long as she dosen’t get a trigger, I will only take one damage this turn.’ “I guard with Red Card Dealer.” ‘This is it, this move will decide the game.’ “With a boost from Charjgal and soulblast.” ‘I’ll use all I have. As long as she dosen’t get a trigger.’ “I’m not going to let you miss out going to the Vanguard Fight Circuit. Go beyond the limits, Limit Break!” “Limit Break?” they all said with confusion. “A skill that can only activate when you have four or more damage. Garmore gain 5000 power when he attack my opponent's Vanguard.” “That’s 26000.” said Thunderlane “I can’t defend against it. I don’t guard!” ‘What’s a Limit Break. I’ve never heard of it before. But if she still dosen’t get a trigger I can still guard Sagramore attack.’ “Drive trigger check, first card. Second card, heal trigger i give 5000 power to Sagramore and recover one damage.” Garmore jumped up and slashed Asura Kaiser. (no trigger) “With a boost from Blessing Owl and Sagramore’s counterblast, Sagramore attacks.” Sagramore jumped up as well and slashed Asura Kaiser as well. (no trigger) “I lose, that Limit Break was amazing.” ‘I manage to win.’ “That was sneaky coming here with a new trick.” said Thunderlane “This is the first time I heard of Limit Break.” said Snails “It looks like I'm not the only one to get stronger scene the Nationals. I want Limit Break as well. I should have begging you to bring me to the VF Circuit thanks for picking me. Look Thunderlane….” said Scootaloo “You don’t want to be on the team any more I get it, you can go.” said Thunderlane “Let’s go Apple Bloom, the Vanguard Fight Circuit is waiting for use.” said Scootaloo “Alright, Scootaloo.” said Apple Bloom “I don’t what to interrupt but, Scootaloo didn't’t you break the deal with Thunderlane?” asked Snips Scootaloo thought for a few seconds then. “Thats right!” she shouted. Then she saw Rumble started to head towards her. “Come on Apple Bloom let's get out of here.” Both Scootaloo and Apple Bloom ran out of there with Rumble right behind them. They ran right through Ponyville. Then Scootaloo shouted. “LEAVE ME ALONE.” Author's Note link

As long as you do your best.” “Yes! Thanks Applejack.” Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle were walking through Ponyville. “I still can’t believe the three of us will be world class cardfighters. What about Spike?” asked Scootaloo “He said he would find his own way.” said Apple Bloom as she remembered what Spike said. Soon they found themselves in front or PSY. “This is where we going to stop?” asked Scootaloo “Yeah, I just want to stop and ask a few question.” said Apple Bloom ‘They were the ones that gave me Alfred and Majesty Lord Blaster.’ They entered PYS. “Hello!” said Apple Bloom “It looks like no one is here.” said Scootaloo “There has to be somepony here remember the door doesn't open unless you're a princess or there is someone in here.” said Sweetie Belle “Yeah but what if they just left when we opened the door?” “That could be possible.” Then they hear someone struggling and saying. “Close.

Fit!” Cadence then set the suitcase down then sate on it to close it. She notice the Crusaders then it opened back up. “Hello.” said Apple Bloom Then a voice came from the other room. “Cadence what is all that ruckus?” the pony entered and it was Luna. “Are you packing….. Apple Bloom.” she said as she notice the crusaders Then Celestia entered and greeted them. “Your visit came at the worst time. We are going to be leaving the nation for a little bit.” “Really why?” asked Apple Bloom “We were invited to the VF Circuit. But not to compete but to help with the tournament being held in other nations. We are going to help promote it and do some diplomatic stuff there as well.” “That strange we are competing in the VF Circuit.” said Scootaloo So you are in the Circuit.” said Luna “Yeah the three of us.

Luna are you you useing Royal Paladin?” “Royal Paladin?” asked Luna ‘I see Luna doesn't remember either.’ “So do you mind if i ask you two why you're competing?” asked Cadence “Well I’m going to win the Circuit and show how strong I am.” said Scootaloo “And what about you?” “Because Apple Bloom asked me too.” said Sweetie Belle “OH, you’re doing her a favor. Well you won't last long. Before you leave I want to test your skills.” Cadence said taking out her deck. “What?” said Scootaloo “Cadence.” said Luna “Let let her fight.” said Celestia They went to the fighting table. “Ok, I only have time for one. So which one am I going to fight?” asked Cadence You're going to be facing……” said Scootaloo “Me!” said Sweetie Belle interrupting “I didn’t like what you said. I will just show you how serious I am.” “Sorry I was just saying what came to my mind.” said Cadence The table started up. “Are you sure about this?” asked Luna “Yeah, I'm sure this will be pretty interesting.” said Celestia “Stand up, Vanguard!” “Godhawk, Ichibyoshi.” “Thermometer Angel.” a pegasus with a pink mane and tale with a thermometer appeared. “Thermometer Angel. Is that a new clan?” “Yeah, it was introduced in the new set. It’s called Angel Feather.” “That deck might have some Limit Breaks.” said Apple Bloom “But the set just came out. How did she get all the cards?” asked Scootaloo “Will I am a princess so there are some perks.” “I draw, I activate Godhawk, Ichibyoshi skill. I check the top five cards for Goddess of the Crescent Moon, Tsukuyomi and if it’s there I can do a superior ride. Not there.” “Thats right I saw you do the exact same thing at the nationals. By using your memory you were ably to win without relying on luck. As long as the victory pattern is ideal, you can fight against any opponent without having any trouble. I better watch out.” “What is with that? What’s with the sudden praising.” said Scootaloo “I ride Goddess of the Crescent Moon, Tsukuyomi. I end my turn.” “Draw, I ride Thousand Ray Pegasus.” Then Thermometer Angel turned into a pegasus mare with some needles floating near her. “Thermometer Angel moves to rear guard. Now I call a second Thousand Ray Pegasus. The rear guard Thousand Ray attacks your vanguard.” The needles shoot out lasers hitting Tsukuyomi. “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “Thermometer boosts Pegasus attack on your vanguard. Drive trigger check. (no trigger)” The needles shoot out lasers hitting Tsukuyomi. “Damage trigger check. (no trigger) My turn, draw. I activate Goddess of the Crescent Moon, Tsukuyomi’s skill. I look at the top five cards and if one of them is Goddess of the Half Moon, Tsukuyomi, I can do a superior ride. I ride Battle Maiden, Tagitsuhime.” “You couldn’t ride the Half Moon. With this the number of cards you check will be less. So fighting with memory power might not be possible.” “You seem to know quite a lot about me. I call Oracle Guardian, Gemini. Gemini attacks your vanguard.” Gemini face pulled back and fired lasers. “Damage trigger check, no trigger. How ever Thousand Rays skill activates. It gains 2000 power when a card is sent to the damage zone till the end of the turn.” “That ability doesn't seem bad for her vanguard but it's kind of wasted on her rear guard.” said Scootaloo “I attack the vanguard with Tagitsuhime.” She slashed her opponent. (both no trigger) “Because I got anther damage Thousand Ray gains 2000 more power.” “As long as conditions are meet she can power up multiple units. Angel Feather they seem to be quite strong.” said Apple Bloom “I end my turn.” “Well then, it’s my turn. I ride, Love Machine Gun, Nociel.” Thousand Ray turned into a pegasus mare with a pink mane and tail with a bow. “I move Thousand Ray back and call Holy Zone, Penemue.” A pink pegasus with a ribbon. “With a boost from Thermometer Angel, Love Machine Gun, Nociel attacks your vanguard. Drive trigger check, critical trigger. Penemue gains 5000 power and Love Machine Gun, Nociel gains the extra critical.” Nociel pulled back the bow and fired heart tipped arrows. “Damage trigger check. First, (no trigger) second. Critical trigger I give all effects to Tagitsuhime.” “With a boost from Thousand Ray, Penemue.” 20000 to 14000 ‘I have four damage i can’t take any more right now.’ “I guard with Lozenge Magus.” Lozenge Magus blocked Penemue as she used her ribbon as a whip. “I end my turn.” ‘She’s strong.’ “I ride CEO Amaterasu.” “Even if the conditions for the Full Moon isn’t met. You can go into Amaterasu which is also strong. You have mastered your deck and you can make the most out of it. A good deck which doesn't depend totally on one winning strategy. But there is still something missing.” “Something missing in Sweetie Belle’s deck?” asked Apple Bloom “Talking like she knows everything. That's the deck which won in the national tournament finals!” said Scootaloo “Then tell me what my deck needs. Amaterasu’s skill, soulcharge I look at the top card of my deck, and return it to the top or bottom of the deck, to the top. I move Gemini and call Oracle Guardian, Red Eye and Goddess of the Full Moon, Tsukuyomi. Goddess of the Full Moon, Tsukuyomi attacks your vanguard.” 9000 to 8000 “I guard with Clutch Rifle Angel.” A pegasus with a rifle appeared to stop the attack from Tsukuyomi. “I attack the vanguard with Amaterasu. Drive trigger check, critical trigger. I give the power to Red Eye and the critical to Amaterasu. Second check, no trigger. But now I have four cards in my hoof. Amaterasu skill activates and gains 4000 power during my turn.” She fired a laser from her horn. “Damage trigger check. (no trigger) Thousand Ray gains 2000 power. Second check, heal trigger. I add 5000 power to Love Machine Gun, Nociel. Lucky I didn’t need to heal. We both have four damage now.” “How is that lucky?” asked Scootaloo ‘Don’t tell me.’ thought Apple Bloom ‘Lucky because she can’t heal? What is she up to.’ thought Sweetie Belle “You will know soon enough.” said Cadence “Boosted by Gemini, Red Eye attacks your vanguard.” 22000 to 13000 “I intercept with Penemue.” Penemue got in the way a use her ribbon as a shield. 22000 to 23000 “I end my turn.” ‘If I can survive then next turn. I’ll have the advantage. But what is she planning.’ “Here I go. I ride Circular Saw, Kiriel.” Nociel turned into a pegasus mare with a blue mane and tail with a buzz saw. “Circular Saw, Kiriel’s counterblast! I superiorcall an Angel Feather card from my damage zone. Then I put the top card of my deck into the damage zone face down.” Then a red pegasus with a blond mane and tail appeared. “You called a unit from the damage zone.” “Not only that I moved a card from my deck to the damage zone. Calamity Flame and Thousand Ray both gain 2000 power. This skill cannot only be used on my opponent's turn, but by doing this i can use the skill to attack as well. I call Gattling Shot, Barbiel.” A pegasus with a blue mane and tail with a gattling gun appeared. “Barbiel attacks your vanguard.” “I guard with Dream Eater.” Barbiel shot his gattling gun and Dream eater blocked the attack. “Now it’s time for the main event. Boosted by Thermometer, Kiriel attacks. Go beyond the limits and fly to a new area! Limit Break!” “Limit Break!” “As I thought!” said Apple Bloom “She can use it as well.” said Scootaloo “Drive trigger check, first. (no trigger) Second. (no trigger)” Kiriel started her buzz saw and lightning shot out and hit Amaterasu. “Damage trigger check, critical trigger. I give all effects to Amaterasu.” “Boosted by Thousand Ray, Calamity Flame attacks.” 21000 to 15000 “I guard with Psychic Bird.” “I end my turn.” ‘That was close, I have to finish it this turn.’ “Amaterasu’s skill, to the top. I call White Hare of Inaba. White Hare of Inaba’s skill I add one card from my hoof into the soul. I retire Goddess of the Full Moon. I call Evil-eye Princess, Euryale. Euryale’s skill with six or more cards in the soul I can take one card in your hoof and bind it for the rest of the turn.” Sweetie Belle chose one of the cards and Cadence but it down. “Alright now she has one less card to guard with.” said Scootaloo “Amaterasu attacks Kiriel.” “I guard with Burst Shot, Bethnael and Battle Cupid, Nociel. Battle Cupid, Nociel’s skill when it enter the guard circle I can exchange a card from my deck with a card in my damage zone.” “Drive trigger check, critical trigger. I give all effects to Euryale. Second check, it’s not a trigger.” “It looks like we have a winner.” said Celestia “Yeah see only has two attacks left, and Cadence just picked up a perfect guard. So one of the attacks won’t hit.” said Luna “Boosted by White Hare, Euryale attacks.” “I guard with Requiel. I discard an Angel Feather card from my hoof for a perfect guard.” A mare pegasus with pink mane and tail appeared to blocked the attack. “Boosted by Gemini, Red Eye attacks Calamity Flame.” 17000 to 10000 “No guard.” Red Eye summoned fire orbs and hit Calamity Flame. “I end my turn.” “Well then let’s finish this up. Thermometer’s counterblast, Thermometer move into the soul. Then I look at the top five cards for a grade three revile it and add it to my hoof. Return and shuffle the deck. I call Calamity Flame, Rocket Dash Unicorn and Sunny Smile Angel. Boosted by Sunny Smile, Kiriel attack. Limit Break!” (both sides no triggers) “I lose.” “Sweetie Belle lost so easily.” said Apple Bloom “How is that possible?” asked Scootaloo ‘I couldn't do anything.’ thought Sweetie Belle “That’s the same deck you use in the National Tournament finals right. It’s been a few weeks since then. During that time everyone has been upgrading their decks. You were the best in the country but now I’m not so sure. I think you might have underestimated how tough the VF Circuit will be. With that level, it's better to not participate. You’re participating because someone asked you, you can’t win.” said Cadence Soon the three of them left PSY. “Enjoy yourself at the Circuit, okay.” said Cadence as the Crusaders left. “If you still going.” she whispered. “Cadence that was to much.” said Luna “That is how you make things interesting.” “It should be a blast, the Circuit.” said Celestia The Crusaders were walking thru town. “Cadence was strong.” said Scootaloo “Yes, there are a lot more who are stronger than us.” said Apple Bloom ‘It’s been since the Nation Tournament that I felt this way. This time, I’m not going to the Circuit just because I was asked to. But for my own reasons. “We need to get stronger.” said Scootaloo “Yeah, to win the Circuit, we need to become stronger.

Ride 66: Gold Paladin!View OnlineCardfight Vanguard Equestrian Saga VF CircuitRide 66: Gold Paladin!It was a stormy day, two warriors who were fighting each other were, Nehalem, and the other was an earth pony with gold armor he held a round gold shield with a lion on it he also held a sword. “I’m amazed that you're still standing at this point. However, with this, it's over. Ride the Vanguard! Dragonic Overlord!” Flames surrounded him as he transformed into the Dragonic Overlord. “Burn everything, Apocalyptic Fire!” He then shot the pony with his fire. The knight blocked the attack with his shield. “So you managed to withstand that attack.” “Did you really think an attack on that level would beat me?” “What?” “The real fight starts now. Now let me show you, the new world that will exist once you've broken all the limits.” Then bright light filled their visions. Spike was sitting on a table. He looked around. “What, a dream? It can’t be.” said Spike looking at his cards. Trading card games have reached millions in the world. It has become a commonplace in our lives. Cardfight Vanguard is currently the most popular game. It is that game that lead me to a new world. Miss Cheerilee was teaching class, then the bell rang. The class got there school supplies around. “Apple Bloom, are you heading over to the Card Capital, now?” asked Diamond Tiara. “Yeah!” said Apple Bloom. “Alright! When we get there we’ll beat you and show you who’s the boss.” “Did you forget?” asked Silver Spoon. “What?” asked Diamond Tiara. “Did you forget that you can’t go to the Card Capital because you have detention for not having your homework?” “I forgot! Okay, I will have to take a rain check on that match. Come on Silver Spoon, we have detention.” “Me too?” Apple Bloom chuckled a little. It’s hard to believe that only a few weeks ago our team won the Vanguard National Championship. Team Crusader has temporarily disbanded. This way, we can relax and enjoy vanguard in our own way. It hasn’t been a year since I started playing vanguard. So much has changed since then. Apple Bloom entered the Card Capital. “Hello!” said Apple Bloom Apple Bloom saw no one there, but one young unicorn colt with a black coat a white mane and tail and a green horn. His cutie mark was six stars one was silver, one was green, one was purple, one was blue, one was gold, and one was red in a circle there was a seventh star in the center with all six colors. “Wow, it's rare for there it be so few in the store right now.” Apple Bloom walked up to the colt. “Hello.” “Hello!” He said back “Is this your first time here?” “Yeah, have you heard of vanguard?” “Yeah, of course.” “Oh really, because I just put this deck together and I wanted to try it out.” “I see, if your ok with it, I’ll be your opponent.” “That’s so nice of you. You’ll see that I built it so that, one day, I’ll finally participate in a vanguard fight!” ‘Making a deck in order to play the game. He reminds me of my old self.’ thought Apple Bloom. “Since this is your first time, I’ll explain the rules as we play. Will the standing fight table be okay?” “Yes.” “Okay, place a grade zero card face-down in the vanguard circle. Let decide who goes first.” They flipped a coin, the coin showed the side the colt choosed. “Now, draw five cards from your deck.” “Okay.” “If you don't like the cards you can redraw as many as you want. It’s good to have, at least a grade one, two and three. Are you ok? Are you sure you’re not going to redraw any of your cards?” she asked, seeing he was not redrawing. “Yeah, I’m fine.” “Ok, then let’s begin. Now imagine it.” “Imagine?!” “The two of us have arrived on Cray, a planet similar to Equestria. We are both mere spirits. We’re given two abilities. The first ability is to call on the planet’s creatures or units: Call. The cards in your hoof will fight for you. Each card has different grades, and abilities written on the card. The second ability is to combine our spirit form with a unit: Ride. The unit we ride is called, the vanguard.” “Okay.” “Now we start the game, by flipping over our grade zero units.” “Okay.” “We'll simultaneously reveal our face-down cards.” “Okay.” “Stand up, Vanguard! Wingal Brave.” “Stand up, Vanguard! Grassland Breeze, Sagramore.” The colt turned into a colt with some silver armor and a bow as well as a wolf beside him. “It looks like our vanguards are ready, and we can begin. Grassland Breeze, Sagramore? Gold Paladin? Is this a new clan?” “Yes. Wingal Brave… Royal Paladin. Who know that clan was still around.” “What?” “Let’s continue. It’s my turn?” “Yeah. If you have a card in your hoof that is one grade higher, you can ride it.” “Okay. I ride Knight of Elegant Skills, Gareth.” He turned into a earth pony with gold and red armor and he wielded a sword. “The one who goes first can't attack. So, it’s my turn. I ride Little Sage Marron. Wingal Brave move to the rear guard thanks to it’s skill. And now I can call units that are equal or less grade then my vanguard. The unit will fight alongside the vanguard. This is a call. I call Knight of Friendship, Kay. If you go second then you can attack first. When you attack, it chases the unit to be put in the rest posistine. Grade one and zero can help when they’re in the back row. They can give their power to the unit in front of them. It’s called boosting. The knight of friendship attacks your vanguard.” Kay charged and hit Gareth with his staff. “Since he hit you, you have to show the top card of your deck to see if there is a damage trigger.” “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “No trigger, so just put that card into the damage zone. Now you have to keep your eye on it because when somepony reaches six damage then the game is over. Now I still have another attack. I attack your vanguard with Marron. When the vanguard attacks you can check the top card of the deck for a drive trigger. Drive trigger check, no trigger. But the card still goes to my hoof.” “Damage trigger check.” (no trigger) “Now it’s your turn.” “Stand and draw!” “If you have a grade two you can ride it.” “Of course I have one. I ride Knight of Superior Skills, Beaumains.” he turned into an earth pony with gold armor he held a round gold shield with a lion on it as well he held a sword. “I call Sacred Guardian Beast, Nemean Lion.” a lion appeared “I attack Marron with Beaumains.” “No guard!” “Drive trigger check! Silent Punisher.” “That’s a trigger.” “A trigger….. Critical trigger?” “Yeah there are four types of trigger. The yellow applies a critical effect. Thanks to that you can deal extra damage and also the increase of 5000 power.” “I’ll give the critical to Beaumains and the 5000 power to Nemean Lion.” Beaumains ran up and slashed Marron with his sword. ‘I hadn’t mentchen that you can split the effect of the triggers. For some reason he is very used to this.’ “Is there a problem?” “No, it’s just that you don’t seem like you're a beginner.” “Of course I am. That’s two damage.” “Yeah!” (Both no trigger) Apple Bloom put Gancelot and Blaster Dark into the damage zone. “A Shadow Paladin.” “Oh yeah, so you have heard of it?” “Yeah the name at least. So that clan is still around.” Apple Bloom was shocked on what she heard. “Next I’m attacking with Nemean Lion” “Just because you opponent attacks doesn’t mean you have to take the damage. You can call units from your hoof to guard against the attack. I guard with Elaine. When you guard, the number on the side protect you from attacks.” Elaine appeared and Nemean Lion backed off his attack. “My attack is over.” “Now it’s my turn. Stand and draw! Now I’ll ride. Stand up my avatar, I ride Blaster Blade.” “Blaster Blade.” he whispered “I activate Blaster Blade’s skill. By flipping over two cards in my damage zone, I can retire one of my opponent's rear guards. This is called a counterblast.” Blaster Blade stabbed the ground with his sword and send lighting at Nemean Lion. “I call Lake Maiden, Lien. I use Lien boost Blaster Blade’s attack.” “I don’t guard.” “Drive trigger check, critical trigger. I’ll give the critical effect to Blaster Blade and the power to the Knight of Friendship Kay.” He ran up and slashed him with his sword. “Damage trigger check first (no trigger), second (no trigger).” “With a boost from Wingal Brave, Kay attacks.” “I guard with Silent Punisher and Weapons Dealer, Gwydion.” An earth pony with blue mane and tail with two small horns held two swords. And an earth pony with purple and gold armor holding a sword. Kay ran up and slashed both Silent Punisher and Weapons Dealer. “It looks like you stop the attack. That’s the end of my turn.” “This is too outdated.” Apple Bloom was shocked on what she heard. “Stand and draw! I can’t keep this up anymore.” “What are you saying?” Apple Bloom said, as he showed her a card. “What’s that?” “This is a card that will burst through all limits, Apple Bloom.” “How do you know my name?” “Do you want to know? Then I guess I’ll tell you. Use your silver fangs to crush the chains that determine our limitations. I ride Great Silver Wolf, Garmore.” He turned into a earth pony in white and gold armor wielding twin knives. Then he roared. Apple Bloom found herself on the Planet Cray in Blaster Blade’s armor. She looked around, and saw an army. “Where am I? What exactly is this?” “It’s just as you imagined it right?” said the colt, Apple Bloom looked to see him in Garmore’s armor. “This is Cray. These are the troops that fight upon the land of Cray. This is Cray, a planet similar to Equestria. A multitude of varying clans have lived here together in harmony. But suddenly, a mysterious power began to encompass the land of cray. To fight against this mysterious power, the clans from every nation came together to try to remove it. They fought over what clan would lead them. But…” “Royal Paladin and Shadow Paladin.” “I’m surprised you knew.” “Why do I? This sounds so familiar.” “I see. In the end, neither of them were defeated, so they decided to work together. In order to respect that decision, all of the clans on Cray decided to fight together. And the troops are currently on their way to start the fight.” “This is amazing! I don’t think any enemy can stand up to this.” “Exactly. With this army defeating any enemy should have been easy. But…” The two lightning strikes hit the army sending the two up in the air. Apple Bloom looked back, and saw who were lifted. “Blaster Dark! Dragonic Overlord!” A third lightning strike came down and hit her. The three of them were sent up into the air into the black cloud. “Royal Paladin, Shadow Paladin, and Kagero! These three clans were leading Cray's army. But the three units that acted as the center for each of these clans, were taken by the mysterious power. After that the clans lost their leaders, and the clans lost their will to fight the mysterious power. If things continue as it is, the mysterious power will grow even stronger and completely consume Cray. Cray needs a new force now, Cray needs a new clan all together. A new force which can exceed existing limitations. The power to break past limits: Limit Break!” Apple Bloom found herself back in the shop but she was alone. “Was that a dream? No,it couldn’t have been. What was that? What did that colt say again? I think it was “The power to break past limits: Limit Break!” ?” Then Apple Bloom looked at her deck. “No way, my deck it’s changed.” Then the door open and then Rarity and Sweetie Belle came in. “Hello, Rarity. Hi, Sweetie Belle” “So you came by, Apple Bloom.” said Sweetie Belle “Yeah.” Then the door opened once again. This time Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon came in. “Sorry to have kept you waiting.” said Diamond Tiara “Yeah sorry for keeping you waiting.” said Silver Spoon Then soon after that Rainbow Dash entered. “Hey!” she said “Well, there was some colt in here earlier.” said Apple Bloom “Oh, what was his name?” asked Rarity “He didn’t say. More importantly, he messed with my deck, check it out.” said Apple Bloom show them the deck. “I don’t see anything wrong.” said Rainbow Dash “What do you mean, it was different before.” “Well it looks like your Gold Paladins to me.” said Rarity Apple Bloom was shocked to heard Rarity say that. “You always used Gold Paladins.” said Sweetie Belle “What are you talking about? This aren’t the cards I play with.” said Apple Bloom “Are you feeling ok, Apple Bloom?” asked Rainbow Dash “Yeah, you have always used Gold Paladins.” said Silver Spoon Apple Bloom was still in shock of what she was hearing. “Is there something wrong with your deck?” asked Sweetie Belle “Let me look.” said Diamond Tiara as she took the top card. “Oh this grade three Garmore is sick! This gold Paladin deck isn't too bad considering It's Apple Bloom's.” “Like you’re one to talk.” said Silver Spoon. “It can’t be.” whispered Apple Bloom. “Come on, Silver Spoon let’s have a match.” said Diamond Tiara. “Sweetie Belle, a new booster set is coming out soon. Why don’t we make some room.”said Rarity ‘Why? Why doesn't anyone notice that my deck has changed? My deck, the Royal Paladins. What happened to them?’ Thought Apple Bloom. She then remembered what that boy said. (Cray needs a new force now. A new force which can exceed existing limitations.) “A force which can exceed existing limitations.” Author's Note link
