Location: Princess Twilight Sparkle’s Castle, Ponyville Date: 9:00 P.M. April 23, 2019 “Run!” A voice shouted, shattering the silence that had fallen over the crystalline castle, as a pair of mares, one Unicorn, one Pegasus, galloped through the halls. The Unicorn, Emerald Breeze, had light green fur, sky blue eyes, a yellow-and-sky-blue-striped mane that reached to her chest and curled around her ears. She had an emerald green Delta (Δ) as her Cutie Mark, and a pair of thick rimmed glasses rested on her muzzle. Flying behind Emerald Breeze, the Pegasus had sky blue fur, deep blue eyes, a black, neck-length mane that covered her right eye. Her name was Speda Hooves, and her Cutie Mark was a brown book with a gold pentagram emblazoned on it. The two were being pursued by a group of nineteen Unicorn guards and their Pegasus commander. The reason behind this was that Emerald Breeze was the only magic user that could use regular and dark magic without being corrupted, and Speda Hooves was able to use magic even though she was a Pegasus, so they were being exiled from Ponyville by all but twenty of the inhabitants. Before the guards could react, the duo dashed inside a room, slamming and locking the door behind them. Inside the room, the pair found a large crystal mirror with purple, ruby-studded trim that was hooked up to a large device with a bookstand on top. Emerald Breeze walked to a table next to the mirror where two books, one with a brown leather cover stamped with a stylized sun, the other with a black leather cover stamped with Emerald’s Cutie Mark, and two black, leather saddlebags, one with Speda’s Cutie Mark pressed on it, the other with Emerald’s on it. Emerald Breeze levitated the saddlebag with her Mark on it over to her and put the book with her Cutie Mark in it, before setting it on her back and tightening it. Speda then did the same with her saddlebag, and levitated the other book on the bookstand, turning the mirror into a portal, as Emerald cast a spell on the mirror. As soon as Emerald’s spell was finished, the guards burst through the door, ten of the Unicorns staying at the entrance, and the rest fanning out and surrounding the duo. “Stay where you are and nopony gets hurt!” The commander shouted. “Yeah right.” Emerald Breeze responded with dripping sarcasm, “Go through the portal Speda, I’ll be right behind you.” “But-” Speda began, until Emerald cut her off, “I said go!” Reluctantly, the older mare turned and galloped through the portal, causing the guards to cast bolts of magic at her, only for the beams to be reflected by a mirror shield spell cast by Emerald, her horn glowing green. One of the beams, however struck the book, knocking it off the stand and closing the portal. “There’s no escape for you now missy.” One of the guards taunted, with the ones near the door joining the ones surrounding Emerald. “Yeah, so surrender now and you’ll just be exiled,” Another jeered, “Because Ponyville has no need of freaks!” “You really think I have no escape?” Emerald retorted, “Well think again!” Black energy then joined the green energy swirling around Emerald’s horn, with a similar mix of energy surrounding the Unicorn guards, before focusing on their horns and flowing back to Emerald, causing her eyes to turn pure white, before she disappeared in a flash of emerald green and black light. Location: Princess Twilight Sparkle’s Castle, Ponyville Date: 11:30 P.M. April 23, 2019 A lavender Alicorn walked into a room along with a light purple furred Earth Pony, a Changling with light blue hair, a Unicorn with lilac fur, a purple and green scaled dragon, and a blue furred Alicorn. They carefully maneuvered around the emerald statues placed semi-haphazardly across the room, before picking up a brown leather journal with a stylized sun on it that was glowing and vibrating. The lavender Alicorn then opened the journal to a blank page that had only one section of text in the top left corner that read, “Dear Princess Twilight, I’m sorry Your Friend, Emerald Breeze” That simple line of text caused the Earth Pony to break down and cry, the Changling holding her tight to him, as the Alicorn levitated a pen over to herself, encasing it in a lavender magical aura, before starting to write in the journal. The three then waited, the Changling continuing to comfort the Earth Pony, before the journal vibrated again, and upon reading the response, the lavender Alicorn levitated the book back up to the bookstand above the portal, activating said portal, before her, the Earth Pony, the Changeling, the Unicorn, and the dragon stepped through the portal. The remaining Alicorn then floated the journal off of the stand, closing the portal, and taking it with her as she flew through the night sky towards her castle in Canterlot. Author's Note I hope you enjoyed the first chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! I will see you next time, later! Chapter 1: Arrival/First DuelDisclaimer: I don't own My Little Pony, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Mothball. Location: Unknown Date: Unknown In a cave deep within a forest, a stone pedestal stood with seven indentions in the top, until two more indentions appeared, along with two geodes, one emerald green and one yellow. Then, a purple warphole appeared in the cave, as a teenage girl stepped through. She had sky blue skin, deep blue eyes, and black, chest-length hair that covered her right eye. She was wearing a black hoodie with an image of a brown book with a yellow pentagram on the cover sewn on the pocket, a pair of blue jeans, black socks, black shoes, and a black duffle bag with the same image sewn on the ends was slung around her shoulder. She stood there for a bit, dazed, before examining the cave. Immediately, she noticed the reddish-purple crystals scattered throughout the cave, along with the pedestal and the two geodes in it. Upon closer examination, she also found scrapes leading to the back of the cave, along with random pieces of confetti. A bright flash of emerald light distracted the girl, as another girl appeared from said flash, before her legs gave out, and the first teenager rushed to catch her. The new girl had light green skin, yellow hair with neon blue stripes running through it, and dark blue eyes. She was wearing a yellow jacket with an emerald green Delta (Δ) on the chest, blue athletic shorts, black socks, grey shoes with green highlights, a pair of glasses, and a blue backpack with the same mark on the center was strapped to her back. “Emerald!” The first teenager exclaimed, “What happened to you?” “Would you believe me if I said I just didn’t sleep well last night?” The now revealed Emerald Breeze asked. “No.” The first girl deadpanned. “Darn it Speda,” Emerald mockingly exclaimed, “Why do you have to know me so well!” “I don’t know,” The first girl, Speda Hooves, replied in kind, “Maybe it’s because we’re basically sisters.” They then noticed that something in Emerald’s bag was vibrating. Emerald grabbed a black leather journal with the same emerald green Delta on it, which was the source of the vibrations. She opened it to a mostly blank page, and read the second set of words on it. “Dear Emerald Breeze,” it read, “I have been told of your predicament by Princess Twilight, so I have left a rough sketch of your current location, known as Camp Everfree, so try to head to the head office, and catch a ride to Canterlot City. Once there, you should meet us at the Canterlot High School portal. - Sunset Shimmer (P.S. if you come across two geodes, one with the main color of your Cutie Mark, one with the main color of Speda’s Cutie Mark, grab them.)” “I guess she means these.” Speda stated. “I guess so.” Emerald replied, so they both reached for the geodes. Right before they could touch them, they both floated into the air, and flew over to their respective owners, the yellow to Speda, the green to Emerald. The geodes then changed into circular pendants, Speda’s with a pentagram engraved on it, Emerald’s with a Delta on it, as a leather necklace slipped through a hole on the top of each pendant, before tying onto their respective owner’s neck, causing power to flow through them, restoring Emerald of her magic and energy, and Speda of her weaker spells and wings, as their ears morphed into pony ears. The two then stepped out of the cave, before they flew off, Emerald holding onto Speda’s back tightly. Location: Statue Portal, Canterlot High School, Canterlot City. Date: 4/24/19, 10:00 A.M. Seven girls are standing a statue base with a large crack on the top, and no statue on it. The girls were famous around school for defending said school from multiple threats, magical or not. Their names were Rainbow Dash, the Element of Loyalty, Rarity, the Element of Generosity, Applejack, the Element of Honesty, Fluttershy, the Element of Kindness, Pinkie Pie, the Element of Laughter, Twilight Sparkle, the Element of Magic, and Sunset Shimmer, the Element of Atonement. They seemed to be waiting for someone to... walk out of the base? “What’s taking them so long?” Pinkie asked. “It’s only been five minutes, darling.” Rarity responded. At that, a purple and pink portal appeared on the side of the base facing the group, as five figures, four human, one dog, appeared in the portal, before stumbling out onto the yard. One looked almost exactly like Twilight Sparkle, except that she had a crown on instead of glasses, a different hairstyle, and was wearing different clothes. The dog beside her had purple fur, light green fur on his underbelly, green eyes, light green, floppy ears, a fauxhawk of green hair on the top of his head, and a blue collar with spikes on it, and a gold tag with a pink heart on it. The next human had lilac skin, purple hair with mint green stripes, and greyish-blue eyes. She was wearing a purple tee underneath a mint-green tee and an open, black vest, tattered blue jeans, black shoes with purple laces, and a purple beanie with white sparkles. The last two people two step out of the portal were holding hands. One was male, with pitch black skin, flat, blue, cobweb hair, and green eyes with slit-like pupils. He was wearing a lime green shirt under an open, dark green hoodie, greenish-blue jeans, and black shoes. His name was Mothball, ex-prince of the Changelings, and dimension-hopper. The figure that was holding his hand was a female with lavender skin, purple hair with white swirls, and purple eyes with lighter purple swirls instead of pupils. She was wearing a magenta tank top with a screw and baseball on it over a purple, long-sleeve shirt, with magenta stripes on the sleeves, a plaid purple skirt, purple and magenta striped socks, black Mary Janes, and an orange and yellow striped propeller cap with a green propeller on top. Her name was Screwball, Princess of Chaos, dimension-hopper, and Mothball’s mar-err- girlfriend. (From now on, Princess Twilight is referred to as Princess, and Crystal Prep Twilight is referred to as Twilight) “Welcome back, Princess, Starlight, and Spike.” Sunset exclaimed, “And you two must be Screwball and Mothball!” “Yep!” Screwball replied excitedly, “Can we Duel now?” “Uhh...” Sunset stammered, confused “Do you even have a Duel Disk and Deck?” “Yep!” Screwball replied, as a purple Duel Disk appeared on her arm with a Deck with purple backs and a white swirl. “...” The rest of the humans except for Pinkie Pie and those from Equestria stared dumbly. “I’ll Duel you!” Pinkie exclaimed, as she pulled a pink Duel Disk out of her hair, before grabbing a Deck with a pink back along with three balloons, two yellow, one light blue, out of a pouch on her belt, and inserting it into the Deck space in her Disk. Before they could start the Duel however, Princess stopped them. “Dueling can wait until after Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves show up.” She said, her counterpart agreeing. “Fine.” Pinkie stated, pouting. “Later.” Screwball replied, cheering Pinkie up. “My question is,” Applejack started, “How were y’all able to use yer magic?” “When you hop dimensions often,” Mothball responded, “You gain an... immunity, so to speak, to things like that.” “Ah, okay.” Applejack replied. “Where are those two?” Rainbow Dash asked, impatient. “They said that they took a quick stop,” Sunset replied, “And are on their way now.” At that moment, the eleven humans and one dog heard the sound of a vehicle screeching to a stop, causing them, and everyone else in the schoolyard, to look in the direction of the noise. The sound came from an emerald green Duel Runner that was vaguely reminiscent of a dragon, with black stripes running down the side, excluding two wing-like flaps that were folded down on its sides. Two people were on it, one sitting directly after the driver, both of which were female. The driver had lime green skin, and was wearing an emerald green helmet shaped like a dragon’s head, a pair of sunglasses hiding her eyes, a yellow hoodie with an emerald green Delta symbol on the chest, a pair of blue athletic shorts, black socks, gray shoes with lime green highlights, and a blue backpack with the same Delta symbol on it. The rider behind her had light blue skin, and was wearing a black helmet that was shaped like a popular, angel-like Warrior-Type Xyz Monster, the black visor hiding her eyes, a black hoodie with the image of a brown book with a yellow pentagram on the cover sewn on the pocket, blue jeans, black socks, black shoes, and a black duffel bag with the same image sewn on the ends. Strapped on the second girl’s wrist was a black Duel Disk with a Deck that had black backs with the same image in the middle. The two girls stepped off the Runner, as the first girl reached towards the front of the Runner, before releasing her Duel Disk, which was emerald green, with a deck that had yellow backing with an emerald green Delta symbol in the center. The two girls then took off their helmets, revealing their hair, which was pitch black for the rider, and yellow with neon blue stripes for the driver. The driver then took off her sunglasses, before swapping them for a pair of regular glasses, fully revealing her deep blue eyes that matched those of the rider. “Those two look familiar,” Princess stated, “But where have I seen them before?” “Are you blind?” Screwball asked, “That’s obviously Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves!” “Seriously?” Starlight Glimmer asked. “That’s them all right.” Mothball replied. “How did you know?” Sunset asked. “My boyfriend is a Changeling,” Screwball replied, “So I learned how to recognize people or ponies by their magical trace.” “And due to me being a Changeling,” Mothball continued, “I’ve learned to recognize people by their individual scents.” “Oh.” Twilight replied, before realizing something and getting in Screwball’s face, “What do you mean you can recognize us by our magical traces, if the only ones with magic are us and a couple others?” “Uh...” The spiral-eyed girl started, flustered, “I don’t know?” “We can figure that out later, Sugarcube” Applejack stated, pointing to Emerald and Speda, “But I think we have bigger problems right now.” It turns out three students, all female, had surrounded them. One of them had light and dark blue striped hair, one had purple and aquamarine striped hair, and the last one, the leader, had orange and yellow striped hair. Each of the three had a red Duel Disk strapped to their wrists, and blue backed cards with a G-clef, “forte” symbol, jagged eighth note, and a pile of red gems in front of a bunch of pink hearts in the middle of the card. “What are the Dazzlings doing with them?” Pinkie asked. “They better not hurt them!” Rainbow exclaimed, ready to defend the two. “Wait, something’s happening.” Fluttershy muttered. As she said this, a straight, yellow Solid Vision Duel Blade erupted in a flash of light in front of Emerald’s Duel Disk, as a sword-like blue Blade appeared in front of Speda’s, and a curved crimson Blade appeared in front of each of the Dazzlings’ Duel Disks. Duel Mode Activated Speda’s LP: 8000 Emerald’s LP: 8000 Sonata’s LP: 8000 Aria’s LP: 8000 Adagio’s LP: 8000 Duel Start Speda took the first turn, Normal Summoning a monster known as “Tin Goldfish”, [Level 4 Atk: 800/Def: 2000] and activated its ability, allowing her to Special Summon a Level 4 monster from her hand, so she Special Summoned “Utopic Onomatopoeia”, [Level 4 Atk: 1500/Def: 1500] which then allowed her to Special Summon up to one “Zubaba”, “Gogogo”, “Gagaga”, and “Dododo” monster each from her hand, so she Special Summoned a “Gogogo Giant”, [Level 4 Atk: 2000/Def: 0] which allowed her to Special Summon “Kagetokage” [Level 4 Atk: 1100/Def: 1500] from her hand. She then began to chant. “I Overlay my “Kagetokage” and “Gogogo Giant” to build the Overlay Network,” Speda exclaimed, the two proclaimed monsters turning into orbs of yellow light, before spiraling into a vortex that had appeared on the ground “To Xyz Summon the warrior of hope and light, “Number 39: Utopia” [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]!” As she said this, a bright pillar of light sprung from the vortex, as an angel-like monster appeared from the pillar of light. She then began to chant again. “Now I Overlay my “Utopic Onomatopoeia” and “Tin Goldfish” to build the Overlay Network!” Speda chanted, the two monsters once again turning into orbs of light, before spiraling into the vortex, which had reappeared, “To Xyz Summon the warrior of despair and darkness, “Number 98: Antitopian” [Rank 4 Atk: 2000/Def: 2500]!” Once again, a pillar erupted from the vortex, but this one was made of black lightning, from which appeared what seemed to be “Number 39: Utopia” except with black armor. She then began to chant once more. “I now Overlay my “Number 39: Utopia” and “Number 98: Antitopian” to build the Overlay Network!” Speda shouted, as the Xyz Monsters and their materials turned into golden orbs of light, before spiraling into the vortex, “I Xyz Summon the king of hope and light, “Number 93: Utopia Kaiser” [Rank 12 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]” A blinding pillar of light, now emerged from the vortex, forcing everyone watching to look away, as a hulking angel-like figure with six wings appeared from the pillar, with six orbs of light circling around it. “Now I activate it’s effect, allowing me to Special Summon a number of Rank 9 or lower “Utopia” or “Utopic” Xyz Monsters equal to the amount of Materials attached to it as material. King’s Court!” As she stated this, two monsters appeared, one was nearly identical to “Number 39: Utopia”, and was called “Number 39: Utopia Double” [Rank 4 Atk: 0/Def: 2500], the other looked like a dark version of “Number 39: Utopia”, and was named “Number C39: Utopia Ray” [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/ Def: 2000]. She then ended her turn with by placing a card face-down. It was Emerald’s turn next, so she started with activating the Spell card known as “Pendulum Call, which allowed her to discard one card to add two “Magician” Pendulum Monsters from her Deck to her hand, so she added “Xiangke Magician” and “Xiangsheng Magician” to her hand, before beginning to chant. “I now use my Scale 3 “Xiangke Magician” and Scale 8 “Xiangsheng Magician” to set the Pendulum Zones!” Emerald chanted, “Now, I can Pendulum Summon monsters from Levels 4 through 7! Swing, Pendulum of Souls! I Pendulum Summon, Come forth and bring my monsters into perfect harmony, “Harmonizing Magician” [Level 4 Atk: 0/Def: 0], turn up the heat, “Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000], appear from beyond the Grave, “Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000], Dragon with dual-colored eyes, show these fools the power of the Pendulum, “Odd-Eyes Arc Pendulum Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2700/Def: 2000]!” The proclaimed Monsters appeared, and Emerald used “Harmonizing Magician's” ability to Special Summon “White Wing Magician” from her Deck. She then began to chant again. “I Overlay my Level 4 “Harmonizing Magician” with my Level 4 “White Wing Magician” to build the Overlay Network!” Emerald shouted a vortex appearing in front of her, as the monsters turned into orbs of purple light, before swirling into the vortex, “Cloaked in shadow and relentless in its objective, I Xyz Summon Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]!” A pillar of purple lightning appeared in the portal, before a black dragon with two machine-like wings appeared, two purple orbs circling around it. She then ended her turn. Each of the Dazzlings set a Monster and Spell/Trap face-down, and Speda just ended her turn, leading back to Emerald, who drew a card, before Normal Summoning the card she drew, “Black Fang Magician” [Level 4 Atk: 1700/Def: 800] and activating her “Xiangke Magician’s” Pendulum Ability to change “Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon’s” Rank to a Level and Xyz Summoning “Supreme King Dragon Dark Rebellion”[Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]. This continued, leading to Emerald Xyz Summoning her “Odd-Eyes Raging Dragon” [Rank 7 Atk: 3000/Def: 2500] with nine Xyz Materials attached to it. She then detached one of the materials to destroy all of the Dazzlings’ cards, and boosting its Atk by 200 for each card destroyed. Each Siren had 6 cards on their field, 3 monsters and 3 Spells/Traps, boosting her monster's Atk by 3600 [Atk: 6600], which also allowed her monster to attack twice. Emerald then attacked Aria and Adagio, bringing their LP down to 1400 each Sonata’s LP: 8000 Aria’s LP: 1400 Adagio’s LP: 1400 Emerald then ended her turn, returning her monster's Atk to normal [Atk: 3000]. Then, the Dazzlings each set a card, and ended their turns. Speda then attacked Aria's monster with "Utopia Double", destroying it, before attacking Aria directly with "Utopia Ray", reducing her life points to 0. Sonata's LP: 8000 Aria's LP: 0 Adagio's LP: 1400 Next, Emerald activated her "Raging Dragon's" effect, giving her monster 400 extra Atk [Atk: 3400], before attacking Adagio and Sonata once each. Sonata's LP: 4600 Aria's LP: 0 Adagio's LP: 0 This caused Sonata to forfeit the Duel, causing the monsters to burst into yellow particles, as the Duel Disks deactivated. Winners: Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves Afterwards, Aria and Adagio glared at Sonata, causing her to run inside the school in tears as the other two walked away from the school. The rest of the gang walked over to congratulate Emerald and Speda, but Emerald kept staring at where Sonata had disappeared. “Hey, Emerald,” Sunset asked, “Are you okay?” “Yeah...” Emerald responded. “Hey, Sis,” Speda whispered, “Go get her.” “Ok.” At that Emerald ran into the school after Sonata, leaving the rest confused at what had happened. “What was that about?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Emerald can sense other’s emotions” Speda replied. “Ah.” Author's Note -A/N- I hope you enjoyed the 1st true chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! Here’s a list of the characters and their respective Decks. Adagio- Atlanteans Apple Bloom- Naturia Applejack- Monarch Aria- Gishki Cadence- Crystal Beasts Celestia- Lightsworn Principal Cinch- Fabled Derpy- Blue-Eyes Doctor Whooves- Chronomaly Flash Sentry- Elemental HERO Fluttershy- Fur Hire ???- Blackwing Luna- Constellar Mothball- Digital Bugs Emerald Breeze- Pendulum Octavia- Lyrilusc Princess Twilight- Prophecy Pinkie- Fluffal Rainbow- Speedroid Rarity- Gem-Knights Sci-Twi- Morphtronic Scootaloo- Raidraptor Screwball- Chaos Dragons Sonata- Frog Speda- Utopia Starlight- Magician Girl Sunset- Flamvell/Laval Sweetie Belle- Melodious Trixie- Performage Vinyl- Symphonic Warrior In this world, when a person comes to a certain age (about 14), they get a pack of cards that changes depending on the person to fit their personality/talent. In the case of the characters from Equestria, the deck appears on their outfit when they switch worlds, or at some point afterwards. The card backs also change to match their Cutie Mark. This takes place after the events of the Equestria Girls: Spring Breakdown series. Screwball and Mothball appear after the events of My Little Pony: The Movie, along with Speda and Emerald. The reason for this is that after the events of DisneyFanatic2364’s Daughter of Discord series, Screwball accidently warps herself and Mothball out of their dimension, and spent time hopping from dimension to dimension, coming across Speda and Emerald in the Fallout: Equestria dimension, who joined them, eventually coming across the Equestria in the show, which I will refer to as Equestria Prime. On the EqG side of things, due to the invention of Dueling before the EqG series started, the position of Fall Formal Queen was awarded to the victory of a Dueling Tournament that started a week before the Formal, meaning that I changed the opening of the portal to the day before the tournament starting, and it stayed open until the end of the tournament, when Sundown Shimmer was defeated. Rainbow Rocks was only different in the fact that due to Solid Vision; the bands could have their monsters helping them, but each member was only allowed one monster on stage at a time (Ex. Rainbow, Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie could each have one of their monsters out, but Twilight couldn’t have six monsters out at once.) The Friendship Games were basically the same, except for the addition of Dueling in the competition. Legend of Everfree was exactly the same, because I really couldn’t fit Dueling into the movie anywhere. I hope that clears things up for you. Later Everypony! -A/N- Chapter 2: New FriendAuthor's Note -A/N- Welcome to Chapter Three of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! I hope you enjoy! -A/N- Chapter 2: New Friend Disclaimer: I don't own My Little Pony, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Mothball. Location: Library, Canterlot High Date: 10:30 A.M. 4/24/19 "Sonata?" A voice asked, "Where are you?" The owner of the voice looked around, before she heard the noise of someone sobbing, and followed it to a darkened corner of the library. "Sonata," The voice asked, "Is that you crying?" No response. "It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you." The voice assured, "I just want to talk." A soft whimper. "I know you didn't want to Duel," The voice continued, "So can we talk?" As she said that, a cyan face with purple eyes popped out from behind a bookshelf. Emerald Breeze then took off her Duel Disk and put it on a nearby table. "See?" She reassured, "I don't want to hurt you. What those two did was wrong." As she said this, she walked towards Sonata slowly, arms open. "I just want to be your friend," Emerald soothed, "So I'm here for you." At that point, the former Siren broke down, causing Emerald to rush forward and envelope Sonata in a comforting embrace. "Shhhhh…" Emerald whispered, "It's okay." "Why are you doing this for me?" Sonata asked, teary-eyed, "I was so mean to you" "Because, in the words of one of my close friends," Emerald replied, "Everybody deserves a bit of kindness from time to time." At that, Sonata tightened her grip on Emerald, and cried harder. "Shhhhh…" Emerald murmured, "I'm here for as long as you need me to be." After a few minutes, Emerald helped Sonata to her feet. "Come on," She stated, "Let's go see the others." "Do we have to?" Sonata asked, "I know that you were nice to me, I don't think your friends would be the same." "I can prove you wrong easily." Emerald replied, "First, both Sunset and this world's Twilight were turned into power-hungry demons, Starlight Glimmer used her magic to brainwash an entire village into giving up their Cutie Marks, and when that failed, change history to make sure that the Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie didn't receive their Cutie Marks, Screwball is the daughter of Discord, and Mothball is the ex-Prince of the Changelings." "Wow," Sonata stated, "You have really forgiving friends." "Yep!" Emerald replied, "But I wouldn't trade them for the world." "Okay," Sonata whispered, "I guess we can talk to them." "Let's go then!" Emerald exclaimed, walking to the entrance of the school, Sonata following behind. Location: Mirror Portal, Canterlot High Date: 10:45 A.M., 4/24/19 "Do you think Emerald's okay?" Twilight asked. "She's fine." Speda replied, "Have faith in my little sister." As she said this, Emerald walked out of the school, Sonata close behind. "I'm guessing it went well then?" Speda whispered to her sister figure. "Yep!" Emerald Breeze replied, excited. "Does this mean that we have a new friend now?" Pinkie asked. "Yes it does Pinkie," Princess replied, "Yes it does." "Yay!" Pinkie exclaimed, "We can have a party now!" "Yes we can." Emerald confirmed, before whispering to Sonata, "See, I told you they would accept you." "And you were right." Sonata whispered back. Chapter 3: Sleepover Part 1Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter 4: Sleepover Part 2 / BackstoryLocation: Apple Family Barn, Sweet Apple Lane Date: 9:00 P.M. 4/25/2019 As Emerald Breeze and Dawning Moon walked away from each other, the rest of the group stood there in shocked silence. “Uh…” Rainbow Dash asked, “Does anybody know what was that about?” “We do…” Screwball replied, gesturing to herself and Mothball, “As does Speda.” “But until Emerald, Speda, or Dawning are okay with it,” Mothball continued, “We aren't telling you anything.” “Just tell them.” Speda mumbled, “They were gonna find out anyway.” “Okay then.” Mothball replied, before gesturing for Screwball to tell the group. “So!” Screwy exclaimed, “Here's some background info about the three." “Emerald Breeze, Speda Hooves, and Dawning Moon are all from another universe, called Fallout: Equestria by those who study the multiverse. The main thing that separated it from Equestria Prime, or this universe, was the fact that a nuclear fallout occurred. Those that survived did so by being cryogenically frozen in carefully maintained Stables within the first few days of the fallout. Emerald, Speda, and Dawning had met at least 3 years before the fallout, while Speda and Emerald met while they were lonely 5- year old fillies in an orphanage in Canterlot. Many people had bullied Speda for being able to use Unicorn magic, despite being a Pegasus. Despite this, Emerald reached out to Speda, and defended her with her oddly powerful magic. Because of their gifts, they were invited to attend Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. They did so, hoping the bullying would stop, and went for 7 years. The opposite happened, however, and the bullying got worse. That was when Emerald got fed up with the constant hurt her adoptive big sister had to endure daily, and had her first Flare. She drained the bullies of their magic, before warping herself and Speda away from the school instinctively. Upon exiting the warp, the two vowed to never return to that school, and headed to a town they'd heard of called Ponyville, where they would be accepted. On the way there, they took a break at an inn near the road. This is where they would meet Dawning Moon for the first time.” At that point, Mothball took over telling the story. “See, since the bullying had started at Celestia's School, Speda had started drinking, as alcohol wasn't as restricted in that universe as it is in this one. She had started drinking so often that, as you could see, it took a LOT of booze to get her drunk. Knowing this, Speda boldly declared that she could win a drink-off against anypony in the bar. Dawning Moon was the only one brave enough to accept Speda's challenge, as word had spread about a light blue Pegasus with dark blue eyes who had won thousands of drink-offs. Dawning knew this, but challenged her anyway. It ended like this one, with Dawning Moon losing by just one or two shots. After that, the two got closer, along with Emerald meeting Dawning the next day. Emerald and Dawning Moon became friends, just not to the extent that Speda and Dawning did. On the day that Speda was planning on asking Dawning Moon on a date, the first nuclear weapon was launched. This caused everypony to rush towards their assigned Stables. Luckily, Emerald, Speda, and Dawning were all hired as manetenance for the same Stable, Stable 6. This meant that they, along with the rest of the manetenance crew, would be released from the cryogenic ice 30 years earlier then the rest of the inhabitants, to make sure that the Stable was clean and functioning when the rest were awoken. Years passed before the external radiation meters sensed that it would be safe to release the manetenance crew. When they were awoken, they quickly got to work cleaning up the Stable. Within a few weeks, however, the rush had died down, and Speda was planning on asking Dawning Moon to be her marefriend. On that fateful day, Dawning was assigned to hunting duty, and left the Stable to find food. That was the last time they saw Dawning Moon." “I can take it from here.” Speda stated, her eyes still watering a bit, “My heart was broken by Dawning Moon's disappearance. Upon seeing what happened to me, Emerald swore that she would make Dawning pay, no matter what. After that day, nopony was allowed out of the Stable alone. Months passed, and Dawning Moon was still missing. Three months after her disappearance, me and Emerald were on a scavenging mission, when we sensed a burst of Chaos Magic. We're cautiously approached the source, as we had heard rumors of a Draconequus wandering the wilderness. We arrived just in time, however, as, in a flash of purple and green light, two creatures appeared, one a Changeling, the other a regular Earth Pony. They looked very confused as to where they were, so we escorted them back to Stable 6 after making sure they were free of radiation. Once we had reached the Stable, the two introduced themselves as Screwball and Mothball, and explained that they were from another dimension, called Disneyquestria, and had been transported to our dimension by a teleportation gone wrong. When asked what they meant, Screwball replied that she was the Daughter of Discord, and had lost focus in the middle of teleporting the two to a special place in the Everfree, and they ended up in our dimension. They stayed for a couple of days, before trying to return to their world. The two vanished in a flash of light similar to what they had appeared in, before reappearing a few seconds later. Apparently, they had traveled to hundreds of dimensions, but couldn't find theirs. They were, however, able to obtain a device that could chart the multiverse. They found a universe that had a signature nearly identical to theirs, but they couldn't reach it, as the two didn't have enough magic to reach it without killing themselves in the process. They said that they needed the two strongest magic-wielders in the Stable, and were led to me and Emerald. They explained that with our power combined with theirs, they could reach the dimension. We agreed to help, and lent our magic to Screwball, who wove it into the magic possessed by herself and Mothball, before we disappeared. We had almost reached Disneyquestria, when something pulled us off track and into this universe, Equestria Prime. We arrived in a ruined Ponyville directly after the Storm King’s defeat, and headed to the only building that was completely intact. We met the Pony versions of Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Twilight. They offered us the Castle of the Two Sisters, as long as we helped rebuild Ponyville. We agreed to live in the castle, as there weren't any other dimensions with a signature like theirs, and Disneyquestria’s signature had disappeared. We had been living there until Emerald and I were exiled.” “That explains a lot.” Rainbow Dash stated, and started up the stairs, “Welp, I'm going to go talk to Dawning Moon.” “I'll try to calm down Emerald.” Sunset murmured, walking in the other direction. “The rest of us will just stay here, okay Sugarcube?” Applejack replied. “Alright.” Sunset responded, as the rest spread out through the barn, but not as excited as before.

See ya! Chapter 5: ComfortApple Family Barn, Sweet Apple Lane Date: 10:30 P.M. 4/25/2019 Rainbow Dash’s P.O.V. Rainbow Dash carefully climbed the stairs to the loft of the barn, pausing only slightly when she heard the sound of crying. When she reached the top of the stairs, she looked around, and upon seeing nobody, fully entered the loft. Rainbow looked around once more, and saw a bit of blue and purple in the corner. Upon approaching, she noticed the crying getting louder. When she reached the blue-and-purple haired girl, she rested her hand on the girl’s shoulder. “Hey Dawning Moon,” Rainbow started, sitting beside her, “It’s going to be okay.” “N-no it won’t,” Dawning replied, her voice shaky, “Not only did I lose one of my crushes, b-but now that I found her, I’m going to lose Speda again.” “Hey now,” Rainbow exclaimed, “Don’t look at it like that!” “How am I supposed to look at it?” “Think of it like this,” Rainbow responded, pulling Dawning Moon close to her, “You finally found the love of your life! And guess what? She loves you too!” “R-really?” Dawning asked, a slight blush spreading across her face. “Yeah! The only problem is Emerald, now. All you need to do about that is tell her why you disappeared, and show her that you’ve changed!” “Are you sure that will work?” Dawning inquired, doubtful. “Of course it will!” Rainbow replied, “Just trust me on this, alright?” “Alright!” Dawning Moon replied, confident, “Oh, and Rainbow?” “Yes?” The prismatic-haired girl replied. “Thank you.” With that, Dawning gave Rainbow Dash a small peck on the cheek, before walking down the stairs, “Y-you’re welcome?” Rainbow stuttered, blushing heavily. Date: 10:30 P.M. 4/25/2019 Sunset Shimmer’s P.O.V. As Sunset Shimmer exited the barn, she suddenly felt waves of magic flood over her, nearly knocking her off of her feet and into the wall behind her with the force of each wave. As Sunset stood there, she tried to make sense of her surroundings. Once she had a rough idea of where she was, she started walking toward the source of the energy, only to be launched into the wall. Upon regaining her footing and shaking off the dizziness from such a blow, Sunset opened her eyes and tried to find the center of the maelstrom. What she saw at the center, however, terrified her. In the corner of the barn’s patio was Emerald Breeze, her hair whipping around in the wind. What terrified Sunset, however, was the dark aura surrounding Emerald. Above Emerald’s head was a glowing heart. The left half of it was a mix of green and yellow, while the right half was inverted and pitch-black. As she watched, veins of black spread through the green and yellow side. “Emerald!” Sunset shouted, “You need to calm down!” “Who’s there?” Came the reply, the magical hurricane wrapping tightly around Emerald, hiding her from view with the ferocity with which the magic wind swirled. “It’s me, Sunset!” Sunset replied, “I want to help you!” At that, the magic stopped in place, before fading away. As soon as the magic was gone, Sunset ran forward and embraced her friend in a tight hug. “It’s okay, Emerald,” Sunset whispered, “Everything’s going to be alright.” “No, it’s not.” Emerald replied, “I remember how much it hurt Speda when Dawning Moon left. I even offered to erase Dawning from her memories to ease her pain, but she refused, said something about not wanting to give up on Dawning. Even though Speda refused to give up on her, I did. I gave up on Dawning Moon and swore that if she ever came back, I would make her pay for what she did. Now, she’s here, so I’ll make her prove that she won’t abandon Speda again, or she’ll pay for it.” “I can’t say I agree with this,” Sunset stated, “But I’ll stay by your side, no matter what happens.” “Why would you do that for me?” Emerald asked, “I’d probably just end up hurting you.” “Because that’s what friends are for.” Sunset replied. “Thank you.” Emerald whispered, snuggling closer to Sunset. “Anything for you.” Sunset replied, holding her friend close to her. The two stayed there, wrapped in each other’s embrace, for a bit, until Emerald stood up, pulling Sunset with her, and headed toward the door. “Where are you going?” Sunset asked. “I need to talk to Dawning Moon.” Emerald replied, walking through the door, Sunset following shortly after. What neither of them noticed was the black veins receding from the left side of Emerald’s SOUL. Author's Note I hope you all enjoyed this chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Duels.

Chapter 6: ChallengeAs Emerald Breeze entered the barn, she saw Green Key waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. As she approached, Green Key started talking. “Emerald,” She stated, “I have something to tell you.” “What is it?” Emerald replied, looking around. “I need to tell you what happened that day,” Green Key continued, “So that hopefully it'll change your view of me.” “Before you do,” Emerald asked, “Where's Speda and Rainbow?” “They went to get something together.” Green Key replied. “Ok.” Emerald stated, “What's your side of the story then?” “As you know,” Green Key began, “On that day, I was sent on scavenging duty. While I was out, I hadn't found anything to bring back to the Stable. As such, I explored a bit outside of the Stable’s known boundaries. While I was searching, I came across a pool of pure, uncorrupted water. In fact, it was the cleanest water I had seen since we're were frozen, so I investigated it. I stuck a hoof into it, and, aside from a bit of tingling, the water was fine! However, the tingling worried me, so I grabbed two bottles out of my saddlebags to store some of the water in and take it to the study lab. Right before I could collect some of the water, I heard a rustling behind me, and I whirled around, magic at the ready. What came out of the grass, however, shocked me. In front of me was a green artificial Alicorn, her magic having already summoned a protective shield around her. Due to the shield, I wasn’t able to use my regular magic, so I used my prototype Blue Attack, surrounding her and stabbing her with light blue pens. At first, she tried charging me, but quickly stopped when she figured out that the magic doesn't hurt unless you move. She then surprised me with a magic blast, disrupting the attack, and launching me into the pool. I started to swim back to shore, but it felt like something was pulling me back under the water. Eventually, my strength ran out, and the whirlpool sucked me in. There was a flash of light, then the world went back. When I woke up, I was in front of Canterlot High. I stayed here, studying the Canterlot portal's magic, and hoping that you and Speda would stay safe until I got back, or you found me. That brings us to tonight.” “What about tonight?” Emerald inquired. “I-" Green Key hesitated, “I'm sorry for hurting Speda, as I didn't want to hurt her.” “And?” Emerald asked, “There's more that you want to say, isn't there?” “You're right.” Green Key admitted, “I never wanted to hurt Speda, nor will I ever want to hurt her, because I- I love her.” “I see…” Emerald muttered, “You are forgiven, but before I allow you to be in a relationship with my sister, you must do one thing.” “Anything.” Green Key replied, determined. “Prove yourself!” Emerald declared, “Prove to me that you have not only the strength to protect yourself, but the strength to protect Speda from anyone, including myself.” “And how can I do that?” Green Key asked. “Hold your own against me in a Turbo Duel, no holds barred.” Emerald replied. “Deal.” Green Key stated, shaking Emerald’s hand, before the two went outside to start up their Duel Runners, and start the Duel. Author's Note -A/N- Sorry about the short chapter, I just want the Duel to be it's own chapter. -A/N-
PrologueDisclaimer: I don't own My Little Pony, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Mothball. Location: Princess Twilight Sparkle’s Castle, Ponyville Date: 9:00 P.M. April 23, 2019 “Run!” A voice shouted, shattering the silence that had fallen over the crystalline castle, as a pair of mares, one Unicorn, one Pegasus, galloped through the halls. The Unicorn, Emerald Breeze, had light green fur, sky blue eyes, a yellow-and-sky-blue-striped mane that reached to her chest and curled around her ears. She had an emerald green Delta (Δ) as her Cutie Mark, and a pair of thick rimmed glasses rested on her muzzle. Flying behind Emerald Breeze, the Pegasus had sky blue fur, deep blue eyes, a black, neck-length mane that covered her right eye. Her name was Speda Hooves, and her Cutie Mark was a brown book with a gold pentagram emblazoned on it. The two were being pursued by a group of nineteen Unicorn guards and their Pegasus commander. The reason behind this was that Emerald Breeze was the only magic user that could use regular and dark magic without being corrupted, and Speda Hooves was able to use magic even though she was a Pegasus, so they were being exiled from Ponyville by all but twenty of the inhabitants. Before the guards could react, the duo dashed inside a room, slamming and locking the door behind them. Inside the room, the pair found a large crystal mirror with purple, ruby-studded trim that was hooked up to a large device with a bookstand on top. Emerald Breeze walked to a table next to the mirror where two books, one with a brown leather cover stamped with a stylized sun, the other with a black leather cover stamped with Emerald’s Cutie Mark, and two black, leather saddlebags, one with Speda’s Cutie Mark pressed on it, the other with Emerald’s on it. Emerald Breeze levitated the saddlebag with her Mark on it over to her and put the book with her Cutie Mark in it, before setting it on her back and tightening it. Speda then did the same with her saddlebag, and levitated the other book on the bookstand, turning the mirror into a portal, as Emerald cast a spell on the mirror. As soon as Emerald’s spell was finished, the guards burst through the door, ten of the Unicorns staying at the entrance, and the rest fanning out and surrounding the duo. “Stay where you are and nopony gets hurt!” The commander shouted. “Yeah right.” Emerald Breeze responded with dripping sarcasm, “Go through the portal Speda, I’ll be right behind you.” “But-” Speda began, until Emerald cut her off, “I said go!” Reluctantly, the older mare turned and galloped through the portal, causing the guards to cast bolts of magic at her, only for the beams to be reflected by a mirror shield spell cast by Emerald, her horn glowing green. One of the beams, however struck the book, knocking it off the stand and closing the portal. “There’s no escape for you now missy.” One of the guards taunted, with the ones near the door joining the ones surrounding Emerald. “Yeah, so surrender now and you’ll just be exiled,” Another jeered, “Because Ponyville has no need of freaks!” “You really think I have no escape?” Emerald retorted, “Well think again!” Black energy then joined the green energy swirling around Emerald’s horn, with a similar mix of energy surrounding the Unicorn guards, before focusing on their horns and flowing back to Emerald, causing her eyes to turn pure white, before she disappeared in a flash of emerald green and black light. Location: Princess Twilight Sparkle’s Castle, Ponyville Date: 11:30 P.M. April 23, 2019 A lavender Alicorn walked into a room along with a light purple furred Earth Pony, a Changling with light blue hair, a Unicorn with lilac fur, a purple and green scaled dragon, and a blue furred Alicorn. They carefully maneuvered around the emerald statues placed semi-haphazardly across the room, before picking up a brown leather journal with a stylized sun on it that was glowing and vibrating. The lavender Alicorn then opened the journal to a blank page that had only one section of text in the top left corner that read, “Dear Princess Twilight, I’m sorry Your Friend, Emerald Breeze” That simple line of text caused the Earth Pony to break down and cry, the Changling holding her tight to him, as the Alicorn levitated a pen over to herself, encasing it in a lavender magical aura, before starting to write in the journal. The three then waited, the Changling continuing to comfort the Earth Pony, before the journal vibrated again, and upon reading the response, the lavender Alicorn levitated the book back up to the bookstand above the portal, activating said portal, before her, the Earth Pony, the Changeling, the Unicorn, and the dragon stepped through the portal. The remaining Alicorn then floated the journal off of the stand, closing the portal, and taking it with her as she flew through the night sky towards her castle in Canterlot. Author's Note I hope you enjoyed the first chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! I will see you next time, later!
Chapter 1: Arrival/First DuelDisclaimer: I don't own My Little Pony, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Mothball. Location: Unknown Date: Unknown In a cave deep within a forest, a stone pedestal stood with seven indentions in the top, until two more indentions appeared, along with two geodes, one emerald green and one yellow. Then, a purple warphole appeared in the cave, as a teenage girl stepped through. She had sky blue skin, deep blue eyes, and black, chest-length hair that covered her right eye. She was wearing a black hoodie with an image of a brown book with a yellow pentagram on the cover sewn on the pocket, a pair of blue jeans, black socks, black shoes, and a black duffle bag with the same image sewn on the ends was slung around her shoulder. She stood there for a bit, dazed, before examining the cave. Immediately, she noticed the reddish-purple crystals scattered throughout the cave, along with the pedestal and the two geodes in it. Upon closer examination, she also found scrapes leading to the back of the cave, along with random pieces of confetti. A bright flash of emerald light distracted the girl, as another girl appeared from said flash, before her legs gave out, and the first teenager rushed to catch her. The new girl had light green skin, yellow hair with neon blue stripes running through it, and dark blue eyes. She was wearing a yellow jacket with an emerald green Delta (Δ) on the chest, blue athletic shorts, black socks, grey shoes with green highlights, a pair of glasses, and a blue backpack with the same mark on the center was strapped to her back. “Emerald!” The first teenager exclaimed, “What happened to you?” “Would you believe me if I said I just didn’t sleep well last night?” The now revealed Emerald Breeze asked. “No.” The first girl deadpanned. “Darn it Speda,” Emerald mockingly exclaimed, “Why do you have to know me so well!” “I don’t know,” The first girl, Speda Hooves, replied in kind, “Maybe it’s because we’re basically sisters.” They then noticed that something in Emerald’s bag was vibrating. Emerald grabbed a black leather journal with the same emerald green Delta on it, which was the source of the vibrations. She opened it to a mostly blank page, and read the second set of words on it. “Dear Emerald Breeze,” it read, “I have been told of your predicament by Princess Twilight, so I have left a rough sketch of your current location, known as Camp Everfree, so try to head to the head office, and catch a ride to Canterlot City. Once there, you should meet us at the Canterlot High School portal. - Sunset Shimmer (P.S. if you come across two geodes, one with the main color of your Cutie Mark, one with the main color of Speda’s Cutie Mark, grab them.)” “I guess she means these.” Speda stated. “I guess so.” Emerald replied, so they both reached for the geodes. Right before they could touch them, they both floated into the air, and flew over to their respective owners, the yellow to Speda, the green to Emerald. The geodes then changed into circular pendants, Speda’s with a pentagram engraved on it, Emerald’s with a Delta on it, as a leather necklace slipped through a hole on the top of each pendant, before tying onto their respective owner’s neck, causing power to flow through them, restoring Emerald of her magic and energy, and Speda of her weaker spells and wings, as their ears morphed into pony ears. The two then stepped out of the cave, before they flew off, Emerald holding onto Speda’s back tightly. Location: Statue Portal, Canterlot High School, Canterlot City. Date: 4/24/19, 10:00 A.M. Seven girls are standing a statue base with a large crack on the top, and no statue on it. The girls were famous around school for defending said school from multiple threats, magical or not. Their names were Rainbow Dash, the Element of Loyalty, Rarity, the Element of Generosity, Applejack, the Element of Honesty, Fluttershy, the Element of Kindness, Pinkie Pie, the Element of Laughter, Twilight Sparkle, the Element of Magic, and Sunset Shimmer, the Element of Atonement. They seemed to be waiting for someone to... walk out of the base? “What’s taking them so long?” Pinkie asked. “It’s only been five minutes, darling.” Rarity responded. At that, a purple and pink portal appeared on the side of the base facing the group, as five figures, four human, one dog, appeared in the portal, before stumbling out onto the yard. One looked almost exactly like Twilight Sparkle, except that she had a crown on instead of glasses, a different hairstyle, and was wearing different clothes. The dog beside her had purple fur, light green fur on his underbelly, green eyes, light green, floppy ears, a fauxhawk of green hair on the top of his head, and a blue collar with spikes on it, and a gold tag with a pink heart on it. The next human had lilac skin, purple hair with mint green stripes, and greyish-blue eyes. She was wearing a purple tee underneath a mint-green tee and an open, black vest, tattered blue jeans, black shoes with purple laces, and a purple beanie with white sparkles. The last two people two step out of the portal were holding hands. One was male, with pitch black skin, flat, blue, cobweb hair, and green eyes with slit-like pupils. He was wearing a lime green shirt under an open, dark green hoodie, greenish-blue jeans, and black shoes. His name was Mothball, ex-prince of the Changelings, and dimension-hopper. The figure that was holding his hand was a female with lavender skin, purple hair with white swirls, and purple eyes with lighter purple swirls instead of pupils. She was wearing a magenta tank top with a screw and baseball on it over a purple, long-sleeve shirt, with magenta stripes on the sleeves, a plaid purple skirt, purple and magenta striped socks, black Mary Janes, and an orange and yellow striped propeller cap with a green propeller on top. Her name was Screwball, Princess of Chaos, dimension-hopper, and Mothball’s mar-err- girlfriend. (From now on, Princess Twilight is referred to as Princess, and Crystal Prep Twilight is referred to as Twilight) “Welcome back, Princess, Starlight, and Spike.” Sunset exclaimed, “And you two must be Screwball and Mothball!” “Yep!” Screwball replied excitedly, “Can we Duel now?” “Uhh...” Sunset stammered, confused “Do you even have a Duel Disk and Deck?” “Yep!” Screwball replied, as a purple Duel Disk appeared on her arm with a Deck with purple backs and a white swirl. “...” The rest of the humans except for Pinkie Pie and those from Equestria stared dumbly. “I’ll Duel you!” Pinkie exclaimed, as she pulled a pink Duel Disk out of her hair, before grabbing a Deck with a pink back along with three balloons, two yellow, one light blue, out of a pouch on her belt, and inserting it into the Deck space in her Disk. Before they could start the Duel however, Princess stopped them. “Dueling can wait until after Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves show up.” She said, her counterpart agreeing. “Fine.” Pinkie stated, pouting. “Later.” Screwball replied, cheering Pinkie up. “My question is,” Applejack started, “How were y’all able to use yer magic?” “When you hop dimensions often,” Mothball responded, “You gain an... immunity, so to speak, to things like that.” “Ah, okay.” Applejack replied. “Where are those two?” Rainbow Dash asked, impatient. “They said that they took a quick stop,” Sunset replied, “And are on their way now.” At that moment, the eleven humans and one dog heard the sound of a vehicle screeching to a stop, causing them, and everyone else in the schoolyard, to look in the direction of the noise. The sound came from an emerald green Duel Runner that was vaguely reminiscent of a dragon, with black stripes running down the side, excluding two wing-like flaps that were folded down on its sides. Two people were on it, one sitting directly after the driver, both of which were female. The driver had lime green skin, and was wearing an emerald green helmet shaped like a dragon’s head, a pair of sunglasses hiding her eyes, a yellow hoodie with an emerald green Delta symbol on the chest, a pair of blue athletic shorts, black socks, gray shoes with lime green highlights, and a blue backpack with the same Delta symbol on it. The rider behind her had light blue skin, and was wearing a black helmet that was shaped like a popular, angel-like Warrior-Type Xyz Monster, the black visor hiding her eyes, a black hoodie with the image of a brown book with a yellow pentagram on the cover sewn on the pocket, blue jeans, black socks, black shoes, and a black duffel bag with the same image sewn on the ends. Strapped on the second girl’s wrist was a black Duel Disk with a Deck that had black backs with the same image in the middle. The two girls stepped off the Runner, as the first girl reached towards the front of the Runner, before releasing her Duel Disk, which was emerald green, with a deck that had yellow backing with an emerald green Delta symbol in the center. The two girls then took off their helmets, revealing their hair, which was pitch black for the rider, and yellow with neon blue stripes for the driver. The driver then took off her sunglasses, before swapping them for a pair of regular glasses, fully revealing her deep blue eyes that matched those of the rider. “Those two look familiar,” Princess stated, “But where have I seen them before?” “Are you blind?” Screwball asked, “That’s obviously Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves!” “Seriously?” Starlight Glimmer asked. “That’s them all right.” Mothball replied. “How did you know?” Sunset asked. “My boyfriend is a Changeling,” Screwball replied, “So I learned how to recognize people or ponies by their magical trace.” “And due to me being a Changeling,” Mothball continued, “I’ve learned to recognize people by their individual scents.” “Oh.” Twilight replied, before realizing something and getting in Screwball’s face, “What do you mean you can recognize us by our magical traces, if the only ones with magic are us and a couple others?” “Uh...” The spiral-eyed girl started, flustered, “I don’t know?” “We can figure that out later, Sugarcube” Applejack stated, pointing to Emerald and Speda, “But I think we have bigger problems right now.” It turns out three students, all female, had surrounded them. One of them had light and dark blue striped hair, one had purple and aquamarine striped hair, and the last one, the leader, had orange and yellow striped hair. Each of the three had a red Duel Disk strapped to their wrists, and blue backed cards with a G-clef, “forte” symbol, jagged eighth note, and a pile of red gems in front of a bunch of pink hearts in the middle of the card. “What are the Dazzlings doing with them?” Pinkie asked. “They better not hurt them!” Rainbow exclaimed, ready to defend the two. “Wait, something’s happening.” Fluttershy muttered. As she said this, a straight, yellow Solid Vision Duel Blade erupted in a flash of light in front of Emerald’s Duel Disk, as a sword-like blue Blade appeared in front of Speda’s, and a curved crimson Blade appeared in front of each of the Dazzlings’ Duel Disks. Duel Mode Activated Speda’s LP: 8000 Emerald’s LP: 8000 Sonata’s LP: 8000 Aria’s LP: 8000 Adagio’s LP: 8000 Duel Start Speda took the first turn, Normal Summoning a monster known as “Tin Goldfish”, [Level 4 Atk: 800/Def: 2000] and activated its ability, allowing her to Special Summon a Level 4 monster from her hand, so she Special Summoned “Utopic Onomatopoeia”, [Level 4 Atk: 1500/Def: 1500] which then allowed her to Special Summon up to one “Zubaba”, “Gogogo”, “Gagaga”, and “Dododo” monster each from her hand, so she Special Summoned a “Gogogo Giant”, [Level 4 Atk: 2000/Def: 0] which allowed her to Special Summon “Kagetokage” [Level 4 Atk: 1100/Def: 1500] from her hand. She then began to chant. “I Overlay my “Kagetokage” and “Gogogo Giant” to build the Overlay Network,” Speda exclaimed, the two proclaimed monsters turning into orbs of yellow light, before spiraling into a vortex that had appeared on the ground “To Xyz Summon the warrior of hope and light, “Number 39: Utopia” [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]!” As she said this, a bright pillar of light sprung from the vortex, as an angel-like monster appeared from the pillar of light. She then began to chant again. “Now I Overlay my “Utopic Onomatopoeia” and “Tin Goldfish” to build the Overlay Network!” Speda chanted, the two monsters once again turning into orbs of light, before spiraling into the vortex, which had reappeared, “To Xyz Summon the warrior of despair and darkness, “Number 98: Antitopian” [Rank 4 Atk: 2000/Def: 2500]!” Once again, a pillar erupted from the vortex, but this one was made of black lightning, from which appeared what seemed to be “Number 39: Utopia” except with black armor. She then began to chant once more. “I now Overlay my “Number 39: Utopia” and “Number 98: Antitopian” to build the Overlay Network!” Speda shouted, as the Xyz Monsters and their materials turned into golden orbs of light, before spiraling into the vortex, “I Xyz Summon the king of hope and light, “Number 93: Utopia Kaiser” [Rank 12 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]” A blinding pillar of light, now emerged from the vortex, forcing everyone watching to look away, as a hulking angel-like figure with six wings appeared from the pillar, with six orbs of light circling around it. “Now I activate it’s effect, allowing me to Special Summon a number of Rank 9 or lower “Utopia” or “Utopic” Xyz Monsters equal to the amount of Materials attached to it as material. King’s Court!” As she stated this, two monsters appeared, one was nearly identical to “Number 39: Utopia”, and was called “Number 39: Utopia Double” [Rank 4 Atk: 0/Def: 2500], the other looked like a dark version of “Number 39: Utopia”, and was named “Number C39: Utopia Ray” [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/ Def: 2000]. She then ended her turn with by placing a card face-down. It was Emerald’s turn next, so she started with activating the Spell card known as “Pendulum Call, which allowed her to discard one card to add two “Magician” Pendulum Monsters from her Deck to her hand, so she added “Xiangke Magician” and “Xiangsheng Magician” to her hand, before beginning to chant. “I now use my Scale 3 “Xiangke Magician” and Scale 8 “Xiangsheng Magician” to set the Pendulum Zones!” Emerald chanted, “Now, I can Pendulum Summon monsters from Levels 4 through 7! Swing, Pendulum of Souls! I Pendulum Summon, Come forth and bring my monsters into perfect harmony, “Harmonizing Magician” [Level 4 Atk: 0/Def: 0], turn up the heat, “Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000], appear from beyond the Grave, “Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000], Dragon with dual-colored eyes, show these fools the power of the Pendulum, “Odd-Eyes Arc Pendulum Dragon” [Level 7 Atk: 2700/Def: 2000]!” The proclaimed Monsters appeared, and Emerald used “Harmonizing Magician's” ability to Special Summon “White Wing Magician” from her Deck. She then began to chant again. “I Overlay my Level 4 “Harmonizing Magician” with my Level 4 “White Wing Magician” to build the Overlay Network!” Emerald shouted a vortex appearing in front of her, as the monsters turned into orbs of purple light, before swirling into the vortex, “Cloaked in shadow and relentless in its objective, I Xyz Summon Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon [Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]!” A pillar of purple lightning appeared in the portal, before a black dragon with two machine-like wings appeared, two purple orbs circling around it. She then ended her turn. Each of the Dazzlings set a Monster and Spell/Trap face-down, and Speda just ended her turn, leading back to Emerald, who drew a card, before Normal Summoning the card she drew, “Black Fang Magician” [Level 4 Atk: 1700/Def: 800] and activating her “Xiangke Magician’s” Pendulum Ability to change “Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon’s” Rank to a Level and Xyz Summoning “Supreme King Dragon Dark Rebellion”[Rank 4 Atk: 2500/Def: 2000]. This continued, leading to Emerald Xyz Summoning her “Odd-Eyes Raging Dragon” [Rank 7 Atk: 3000/Def: 2500] with nine Xyz Materials attached to it. She then detached one of the materials to destroy all of the Dazzlings’ cards, and boosting its Atk by 200 for each card destroyed. Each Siren had 6 cards on their field, 3 monsters and 3 Spells/Traps, boosting her monster's Atk by 3600 [Atk: 6600], which also allowed her monster to attack twice. Emerald then attacked Aria and Adagio, bringing their LP down to 1400 each Sonata’s LP: 8000 Aria’s LP: 1400 Adagio’s LP: 1400 Emerald then ended her turn, returning her monster's Atk to normal [Atk: 3000]. Then, the Dazzlings each set a card, and ended their turns. Speda then attacked Aria's monster with "Utopia Double", destroying it, before attacking Aria directly with "Utopia Ray", reducing her life points to 0. Sonata's LP: 8000 Aria's LP: 0 Adagio's LP: 1400 Next, Emerald activated her "Raging Dragon's" effect, giving her monster 400 extra Atk [Atk: 3400], before attacking Adagio and Sonata once each. Sonata's LP: 4600 Aria's LP: 0 Adagio's LP: 0 This caused Sonata to forfeit the Duel, causing the monsters to burst into yellow particles, as the Duel Disks deactivated. Winners: Emerald Breeze and Speda Hooves Afterwards, Aria and Adagio glared at Sonata, causing her to run inside the school in tears as the other two walked away from the school. The rest of the gang walked over to congratulate Emerald and Speda, but Emerald kept staring at where Sonata had disappeared. “Hey, Emerald,” Sunset asked, “Are you okay?” “Yeah...” Emerald responded. “Hey, Sis,” Speda whispered, “Go get her.” “Ok.” At that Emerald ran into the school after Sonata, leaving the rest confused at what had happened. “What was that about?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Emerald can sense other’s emotions” Speda replied. “Ah.” Author's Note -A/N- I hope you enjoyed the 1st true chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! Here’s a list of the characters and their respective Decks. Adagio- Atlanteans Apple Bloom- Naturia Applejack- Monarch Aria- Gishki Cadence- Crystal Beasts Celestia- Lightsworn Principal Cinch- Fabled Derpy- Blue-Eyes Doctor Whooves- Chronomaly Flash Sentry- Elemental HERO Fluttershy- Fur Hire ???- Blackwing Luna- Constellar Mothball- Digital Bugs Emerald Breeze- Pendulum Octavia- Lyrilusc Princess Twilight- Prophecy Pinkie- Fluffal Rainbow- Speedroid Rarity- Gem-Knights Sci-Twi- Morphtronic Scootaloo- Raidraptor Screwball- Chaos Dragons Sonata- Frog Speda- Utopia Starlight- Magician Girl Sunset- Flamvell/Laval Sweetie Belle- Melodious Trixie- Performage Vinyl- Symphonic Warrior In this world, when a person comes to a certain age (about 14), they get a pack of cards that changes depending on the person to fit their personality/talent. In the case of the characters from Equestria, the deck appears on their outfit when they switch worlds, or at some point afterwards. The card backs also change to match their Cutie Mark. This takes place after the events of the Equestria Girls: Spring Breakdown series. Screwball and Mothball appear after the events of My Little Pony: The Movie, along with Speda and Emerald. The reason for this is that after the events of DisneyFanatic2364’s Daughter of Discord series, Screwball accidently warps herself and Mothball out of their dimension, and spent time hopping from dimension to dimension, coming across Speda and Emerald in the Fallout: Equestria dimension, who joined them, eventually coming across the Equestria in the show, which I will refer to as Equestria Prime. On the EqG side of things, due to the invention of Dueling before the EqG series started, the position of Fall Formal Queen was awarded to the victory of a Dueling Tournament that started a week before the Formal, meaning that I changed the opening of the portal to the day before the tournament starting, and it stayed open until the end of the tournament, when Sundown Shimmer was defeated. Rainbow Rocks was only different in the fact that due to Solid Vision; the bands could have their monsters helping them, but each member was only allowed one monster on stage at a time (Ex. Rainbow, Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie could each have one of their monsters out, but Twilight couldn’t have six monsters out at once.) The Friendship Games were basically the same, except for the addition of Dueling in the competition. Legend of Everfree was exactly the same, because I really couldn’t fit Dueling into the movie anywhere. I hope that clears things up for you. Later Everypony! -A/N-
Chapter 2: New FriendAuthor's Note -A/N- Welcome to Chapter Three of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! I hope you enjoy! -A/N- Chapter 2: New Friend Disclaimer: I don't own My Little Pony, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Mothball. Location: Library, Canterlot High Date: 10:30 A.M. 4/24/19 "Sonata?" A voice asked, "Where are you?" The owner of the voice looked around, before she heard the noise of someone sobbing, and followed it to a darkened corner of the library. "Sonata," The voice asked, "Is that you crying?" No response. "It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you." The voice assured, "I just want to talk." A soft whimper. "I know you didn't want to Duel," The voice continued, "So can we talk?" As she said that, a cyan face with purple eyes popped out from behind a bookshelf. Emerald Breeze then took off her Duel Disk and put it on a nearby table. "See?" She reassured, "I don't want to hurt you. What those two did was wrong." As she said this, she walked towards Sonata slowly, arms open. "I just want to be your friend," Emerald soothed, "So I'm here for you." At that point, the former Siren broke down, causing Emerald to rush forward and envelope Sonata in a comforting embrace. "Shhhhh…" Emerald whispered, "It's okay." "Why are you doing this for me?" Sonata asked, teary-eyed, "I was so mean to you" "Because, in the words of one of my close friends," Emerald replied, "Everybody deserves a bit of kindness from time to time." At that, Sonata tightened her grip on Emerald, and cried harder. "Shhhhh…" Emerald murmured, "I'm here for as long as you need me to be." After a few minutes, Emerald helped Sonata to her feet. "Come on," She stated, "Let's go see the others." "Do we have to?" Sonata asked, "I know that you were nice to me, I don't think your friends would be the same." "I can prove you wrong easily." Emerald replied, "First, both Sunset and this world's Twilight were turned into power-hungry demons, Starlight Glimmer used her magic to brainwash an entire village into giving up their Cutie Marks, and when that failed, change history to make sure that the Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie didn't receive their Cutie Marks, Screwball is the daughter of Discord, and Mothball is the ex-Prince of the Changelings." "Wow," Sonata stated, "You have really forgiving friends." "Yep!" Emerald replied, "But I wouldn't trade them for the world." "Okay," Sonata whispered, "I guess we can talk to them." "Let's go then!" Emerald exclaimed, walking to the entrance of the school, Sonata following behind. Location: Mirror Portal, Canterlot High Date: 10:45 A.M., 4/24/19 "Do you think Emerald's okay?" Twilight asked. "She's fine." Speda replied, "Have faith in my little sister." As she said this, Emerald walked out of the school, Sonata close behind. "I'm guessing it went well then?" Speda whispered to her sister figure. "Yep!" Emerald Breeze replied, excited. "Does this mean that we have a new friend now?" Pinkie asked. "Yes it does Pinkie," Princess replied, "Yes it does." "Yay!" Pinkie exclaimed, "We can have a party now!" "Yes we can." Emerald confirmed, before whispering to Sonata, "See, I told you they would accept you." "And you were right." Sonata whispered back.
Chapter 3: Sleepover Part 1Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
Chapter 4: Sleepover Part 2 / BackstoryLocation: Apple Family Barn, Sweet Apple Lane Date: 9:00 P.M. 4/25/2019 As Emerald Breeze and Dawning Moon walked away from each other, the rest of the group stood there in shocked silence. “Uh…” Rainbow Dash asked, “Does anybody know what was that about?” “We do…” Screwball replied, gesturing to herself and Mothball, “As does Speda.” “But until Emerald, Speda, or Dawning are okay with it,” Mothball continued, “We aren't telling you anything.” “Just tell them.” Speda mumbled, “They were gonna find out anyway.” “Okay then.” Mothball replied, before gesturing for Screwball to tell the group. “So!” Screwy exclaimed, “Here's some background info about the three." “Emerald Breeze, Speda Hooves, and Dawning Moon are all from another universe, called Fallout: Equestria by those who study the multiverse. The main thing that separated it from Equestria Prime, or this universe, was the fact that a nuclear fallout occurred. Those that survived did so by being cryogenically frozen in carefully maintained Stables within the first few days of the fallout. Emerald, Speda, and Dawning had met at least 3 years before the fallout, while Speda and Emerald met while they were lonely 5- year old fillies in an orphanage in Canterlot. Many people had bullied Speda for being able to use Unicorn magic, despite being a Pegasus. Despite this, Emerald reached out to Speda, and defended her with her oddly powerful magic. Because of their gifts, they were invited to attend Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. They did so, hoping the bullying would stop, and went for 7 years. The opposite happened, however, and the bullying got worse. That was when Emerald got fed up with the constant hurt her adoptive big sister had to endure daily, and had her first Flare. She drained the bullies of their magic, before warping herself and Speda away from the school instinctively. Upon exiting the warp, the two vowed to never return to that school, and headed to a town they'd heard of called Ponyville, where they would be accepted. On the way there, they took a break at an inn near the road. This is where they would meet Dawning Moon for the first time.” At that point, Mothball took over telling the story. “See, since the bullying had started at Celestia's School, Speda had started drinking, as alcohol wasn't as restricted in that universe as it is in this one. She had started drinking so often that, as you could see, it took a LOT of booze to get her drunk. Knowing this, Speda boldly declared that she could win a drink-off against anypony in the bar. Dawning Moon was the only one brave enough to accept Speda's challenge, as word had spread about a light blue Pegasus with dark blue eyes who had won thousands of drink-offs. Dawning knew this, but challenged her anyway. It ended like this one, with Dawning Moon losing by just one or two shots. After that, the two got closer, along with Emerald meeting Dawning the next day. Emerald and Dawning Moon became friends, just not to the extent that Speda and Dawning did. On the day that Speda was planning on asking Dawning Moon on a date, the first nuclear weapon was launched. This caused everypony to rush towards their assigned Stables. Luckily, Emerald, Speda, and Dawning were all hired as manetenance for the same Stable, Stable 6. This meant that they, along with the rest of the manetenance crew, would be released from the cryogenic ice 30 years earlier then the rest of the inhabitants, to make sure that the Stable was clean and functioning when the rest were awoken. Years passed before the external radiation meters sensed that it would be safe to release the manetenance crew. When they were awoken, they quickly got to work cleaning up the Stable. Within a few weeks, however, the rush had died down, and Speda was planning on asking Dawning Moon to be her marefriend. On that fateful day, Dawning was assigned to hunting duty, and left the Stable to find food. That was the last time they saw Dawning Moon." “I can take it from here.” Speda stated, her eyes still watering a bit, “My heart was broken by Dawning Moon's disappearance. Upon seeing what happened to me, Emerald swore that she would make Dawning pay, no matter what. After that day, nopony was allowed out of the Stable alone. Months passed, and Dawning Moon was still missing. Three months after her disappearance, me and Emerald were on a scavenging mission, when we sensed a burst of Chaos Magic. We're cautiously approached the source, as we had heard rumors of a Draconequus wandering the wilderness. We arrived just in time, however, as, in a flash of purple and green light, two creatures appeared, one a Changeling, the other a regular Earth Pony. They looked very confused as to where they were, so we escorted them back to Stable 6 after making sure they were free of radiation. Once we had reached the Stable, the two introduced themselves as Screwball and Mothball, and explained that they were from another dimension, called Disneyquestria, and had been transported to our dimension by a teleportation gone wrong. When asked what they meant, Screwball replied that she was the Daughter of Discord, and had lost focus in the middle of teleporting the two to a special place in the Everfree, and they ended up in our dimension. They stayed for a couple of days, before trying to return to their world. The two vanished in a flash of light similar to what they had appeared in, before reappearing a few seconds later. Apparently, they had traveled to hundreds of dimensions, but couldn't find theirs. They were, however, able to obtain a device that could chart the multiverse. They found a universe that had a signature nearly identical to theirs, but they couldn't reach it, as the two didn't have enough magic to reach it without killing themselves in the process. They said that they needed the two strongest magic-wielders in the Stable, and were led to me and Emerald. They explained that with our power combined with theirs, they could reach the dimension. We agreed to help, and lent our magic to Screwball, who wove it into the magic possessed by herself and Mothball, before we disappeared. We had almost reached Disneyquestria, when something pulled us off track and into this universe, Equestria Prime. We arrived in a ruined Ponyville directly after the Storm King’s defeat, and headed to the only building that was completely intact. We met the Pony versions of Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Twilight. They offered us the Castle of the Two Sisters, as long as we helped rebuild Ponyville. We agreed to live in the castle, as there weren't any other dimensions with a signature like theirs, and Disneyquestria’s signature had disappeared. We had been living there until Emerald and I were exiled.” “That explains a lot.” Rainbow Dash stated, and started up the stairs, “Welp, I'm going to go talk to Dawning Moon.” “I'll try to calm down Emerald.” Sunset murmured, walking in the other direction. “The rest of us will just stay here, okay Sugarcube?” Applejack replied. “Alright.” Sunset responded, as the rest spread out through the barn, but not as excited as before. Author's Note I hope you enjoyed this new chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Girls! First things first, the backstory told here is not the original backstory of Speda, Emerald, and Dawning Moon.

Chapter 5: ComfortApple Family Barn, Sweet Apple Lane Date: 10:30 P.M. 4/25/2019 Rainbow Dash’s P.O.V. Rainbow Dash carefully climbed the stairs to the loft of the barn, pausing only slightly when she heard the sound of crying. When she reached the top of the stairs, she looked around, and upon seeing nobody, fully entered the loft. Rainbow looked around once more, and saw a bit of blue and purple in the corner. Upon approaching, she noticed the crying getting louder. When she reached the blue-and-purple haired girl, she rested her hand on the girl’s shoulder. “Hey Dawning Moon,” Rainbow started, sitting beside her, “It’s going to be okay.” “N-no it won’t,” Dawning replied, her voice shaky, “Not only did I lose one of my crushes, b-but now that I found her, I’m going to lose Speda again.” “Hey now,” Rainbow exclaimed, “Don’t look at it like that!” “How am I supposed to look at it?” “Think of it like this,” Rainbow responded, pulling Dawning Moon close to her, “You finally found the love of your life! And guess what? She loves you too!” “R-really?” Dawning asked, a slight blush spreading across her face. “Yeah! The only problem is Emerald, now. All you need to do about that is tell her why you disappeared, and show her that you’ve changed!” “Are you sure that will work?” Dawning inquired, doubtful. “Of course it will!” Rainbow replied, “Just trust me on this, alright?” “Alright!” Dawning Moon replied, confident, “Oh, and Rainbow?” “Yes?” The prismatic-haired girl replied. “Thank you.” With that, Dawning gave Rainbow Dash a small peck on the cheek, before walking down the stairs, “Y-you’re welcome?” Rainbow stuttered, blushing heavily. Date: 10:30 P.M. 4/25/2019 Sunset Shimmer’s P.O.V. As Sunset Shimmer exited the barn, she suddenly felt waves of magic flood over her, nearly knocking her off of her feet and into the wall behind her with the force of each wave. As Sunset stood there, she tried to make sense of her surroundings. Once she had a rough idea of where she was, she started walking toward the source of the energy, only to be launched into the wall. Upon regaining her footing and shaking off the dizziness from such a blow, Sunset opened her eyes and tried to find the center of the maelstrom. What she saw at the center, however, terrified her. In the corner of the barn’s patio was Emerald Breeze, her hair whipping around in the wind. What terrified Sunset, however, was the dark aura surrounding Emerald. Above Emerald’s head was a glowing heart. The left half of it was a mix of green and yellow, while the right half was inverted and pitch-black. As she watched, veins of black spread through the green and yellow side. “Emerald!” Sunset shouted, “You need to calm down!” “Who’s there?” Came the reply, the magical hurricane wrapping tightly around Emerald, hiding her from view with the ferocity with which the magic wind swirled. “It’s me, Sunset!” Sunset replied, “I want to help you!” At that, the magic stopped in place, before fading away. As soon as the magic was gone, Sunset ran forward and embraced her friend in a tight hug. “It’s okay, Emerald,” Sunset whispered, “Everything’s going to be alright.” “No, it’s not.” Emerald replied, “I remember how much it hurt Speda when Dawning Moon left. I even offered to erase Dawning from her memories to ease her pain, but she refused, said something about not wanting to give up on Dawning. Even though Speda refused to give up on her, I did. I gave up on Dawning Moon and swore that if she ever came back, I would make her pay for what she did. Now, she’s here, so I’ll make her prove that she won’t abandon Speda again, or she’ll pay for it.” “I can’t say I agree with this,” Sunset stated, “But I’ll stay by your side, no matter what happens.” “Why would you do that for me?” Emerald asked, “I’d probably just end up hurting you.” “Because that’s what friends are for.” Sunset replied. “Thank you.” Emerald whispered, snuggling closer to Sunset. “Anything for you.” Sunset replied, holding her friend close to her. The two stayed there, wrapped in each other’s embrace, for a bit, until Emerald stood up, pulling Sunset with her, and headed toward the door. “Where are you going?” Sunset asked. “I need to talk to Dawning Moon.” Emerald replied, walking through the door, Sunset following shortly after. What neither of them noticed was the black veins receding from the left side of Emerald’s SOUL. Author's Note I hope you all enjoyed this chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh! Equestria Duels.

Chapter 6: ChallengeAs Emerald Breeze entered the barn, she saw Green Key waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. As she approached, Green Key started talking. “Emerald,” She stated, “I have something to tell you.” “What is it?” Emerald replied, looking around. “I need to tell you what happened that day,” Green Key continued, “So that hopefully it'll change your view of me.” “Before you do,” Emerald asked, “Where's Speda and Rainbow?” “They went to get something together.” Green Key replied. “Ok.” Emerald stated, “What's your side of the story then?” “As you know,” Green Key began, “On that day, I was sent on scavenging duty. While I was out, I hadn't found anything to bring back to the Stable. As such, I explored a bit outside of the Stable’s known boundaries. While I was searching, I came across a pool of pure, uncorrupted water. In fact, it was the cleanest water I had seen since we're were frozen, so I investigated it. I stuck a hoof into it, and, aside from a bit of tingling, the water was fine! However, the tingling worried me, so I grabbed two bottles out of my saddlebags to store some of the water in and take it to the study lab. Right before I could collect some of the water, I heard a rustling behind me, and I whirled around, magic at the ready. What came out of the grass, however, shocked me. In front of me was a green artificial Alicorn, her magic having already summoned a protective shield around her. Due to the shield, I wasn’t able to use my regular magic, so I used my prototype Blue Attack, surrounding her and stabbing her with light blue pens. At first, she tried charging me, but quickly stopped when she figured out that the magic doesn't hurt unless you move. She then surprised me with a magic blast, disrupting the attack, and launching me into the pool. I started to swim back to shore, but it felt like something was pulling me back under the water. Eventually, my strength ran out, and the whirlpool sucked me in. There was a flash of light, then the world went back. When I woke up, I was in front of Canterlot High. I stayed here, studying the Canterlot portal's magic, and hoping that you and Speda would stay safe until I got back, or you found me. That brings us to tonight.” “What about tonight?” Emerald inquired. “I-" Green Key hesitated, “I'm sorry for hurting Speda, as I didn't want to hurt her.” “And?” Emerald asked, “There's more that you want to say, isn't there?” “You're right.” Green Key admitted, “I never wanted to hurt Speda, nor will I ever want to hurt her, because I- I love her.” “I see…” Emerald muttered, “You are forgiven, but before I allow you to be in a relationship with my sister, you must do one thing.” “Anything.” Green Key replied, determined. “Prove yourself!” Emerald declared, “Prove to me that you have not only the strength to protect yourself, but the strength to protect Speda from anyone, including myself.” “And how can I do that?” Green Key asked. “Hold your own against me in a Turbo Duel, no holds barred.” Emerald replied. “Deal.” Green Key stated, shaking Emerald’s hand, before the two went outside to start up their Duel Runners, and start the Duel. Author's Note -A/N- Sorry about the short chapter, I just want the Duel to be it's own chapter. -A/N-
