(GS3) Field: Card Capital

[Kaze Natsume]

While lying down Kaze felt a strange aura walk passed him. This caused Kaze raise his head up and looked around; he saw a blonde haired guy sitting two tables away. "Why do i have this feeling i should approach that guy." Kaze thought to himself. He watches as the guy pulls out a deck. Kaze gets up from the table to go see what kind of cards are being rested across the table. As he approaches to stand behind the guy; he sees dark units laid out across the table and starts to get lightheaded. "What is this feeling..." he said to himself cautiously. He then places his head on his head.

"W-Who is this guy?!?!" Kaze can't help but wonder to himself.

Jellal continued to ponder at the Shadow Paladin deck. He held each card in his hand observing it: from the triggers, to the grade 1s, grades 2s and obviously the grade 3s. Jellal sits them all down and continues eyeing them. For a split second, he realizes how the cards are all unified. They were one collected group of fighters, a powerful force, led by Blaster Dark with Phantom Blaster Dragon behind. That was his image, something he never had that didn't torment him. He smiled a bit, only to realized they resembled the white soldiers that he saw on Planet Cray, dubbed Aqua Force. The blue purple skinned dragon behind all of the warriors while various units lined up beside Genovious, holding out his hand with a confident smile. Jellal reached out as Genovious smiled turning his head, approving the decision that Jellal  had made to help them out. Everything faded into a bright white, throwing him back into reality. Jellal firmed placed both of his hands on the table, holding himself up. He held the right side of his face with his right hand, clutching it. His right eye covered, his left eye still staring at the cards. They returned back to the darkness that was the Shadow Paladins.

"I..." he struggled to form words to describe what happened. Suddenly he sighed. "Just forget about it for now" he thought to himself. He had no idea what he needed to do to get closer to the warriors of Aqua Force. He sat back down in the chair, causing a small rupture of the table. The cards jolted up into the air, causing Jellal to look up in terror. All of the cards had fallen back down to the table in a more disorganized position. All except one, which fly past his left side and started to glide backwards into the front entrance of the shop. Jellal could only imagine what that card was, but he knew he had to get it.

Itou walks in Card Capital, and right away asks some people for a quick Cardfight, but most of them saw him yesterday at the Summer Festival and would not. Seeing how his actions caused consequences and without anyone to fight, Itou grabs a chair and sits looking at the door, sulking.

[Kaze Natsume]

As Kaze's head is in pain he looks to the floor and sees a card landed in front of him face down. He didn't know whether or not to pick up the card lying on the ground. Kaze felt as though the card was asking him to pick it up so he proceeded  to reach for the card on the floor. He picked up the card and turned it over. He said its name was Phantom Blaster Dragon. "P-Phantom Blaster Dragon..." Kaze said to himself in a shushed tone. Kaze's headache got worse. Could it be he has a connection to this card in some sort of way? Kaze continues to hold on to the card until someone comes to claim it. The blonde hairs guy with the weird aura from before walks towards Kaze's direction.

[Kisaragi Zane]

"Hey you!" Jellal said from a distance staring at the boy who held on the card that was flew from his table. He stopped in front of him, with his deck in hand. He looked up at the boy who seemed to be entranced by the held card. Jellal took a glimpse and saw that it was Phantom Blaster Dragon.

"Uhh.. hey guy?" he said while stepping closer and around the red haired boy who's eyes were covered by his hair. "What's with this guy?" he thought. He never seen anyone so committed to a card, even more so to Phantom Blaster Dragon, a card that many people would consider fear-worthy. He awaited for the boys response.

[Kaze Natsume]

With Kaze's head tilted down dazing at Phantom Blaster Dragon he hears a voice talking to him. "Hey guy." is what Kaze heard. He slowly looks up to see who was calling him and it was the blonde haired guy who he was watching. Without knowing why Kaze's eyes look distant as if he's in a trance has he looks at the blonde haired guy while holding Phantom Blaster Dragon. Kaze slowly snaps out of it and he's eye return to normal; then slowly and unwillingly shows the blonde hair guy the card he's holding seeing if he'll take it from him.

"H-here..." Kaze says holding the card in the blonde guy's direction.

[Kuro]

Haruki returned to Card Capital the next day. He had tons of fun here before and was totally chillax fighting his friends.

+1 AF Tsubasa
+1 AF Kota

Now it was time to get his serious mode on. Haruki did have a reason for coming to the card shop the previous day, but was too busy with cardfights to get his goal completed. He looked around the shop's card collection until he found what he was looking for: the Granblue clan.

"That ghost kid was using this clan in our fight," Haruki said to himself. "Maybe I should learn more about this clan if I want to find another clue." He searched through the gallery for anything that he could remember was used in that fight. After making a quick list of cards, he looked around for the shop manager so that he could grab these for a test.

[Kisaragi Zane]

Jellal extended his hand to grab the black dragon. Once it was in his hands, he looked eyed the boy who was returning it to him. He looked timid, red hair, around the same age, maybe younger than Jellal. The boy had an expression on his face that he felt connected to Phantom Blaster Dragon, which was odd especially for Jellal. There wasn't a single person whom he ever met that stared so intensely at it. The very thought of this captured Jellal's interest.

"Thank you for returning the card." he said leisurely with a smile. "You come here often?"

[Kaze Natsume]

"You come here often?" the blonde guy asked Kaze. "No this is my first coming here; from what I remember at least." Kaze responded. Kaze proceeds to introduce himself to the blonde haired guy. "My name is Kaze, Kaze Ryuenji. Last years I got into an accident causing me to lose my family members and memory; I just woke up a few days ago looking for anyone that may no something about my past or who I am. I don't really know anything about myself to be completely honest. Is it possible you know something?"

Kaze waits for the guy's response.

[Kisaragi Zane]

"Kaze... Ryuenji..." he repeated the name of the strange boy in his head. It was a name he was very familiar with, however... the boy in front of him he was not familiar with. His eyes widened, staring at the boy. "Could it really be him?" Jellal thought. "After all this time?" he kept observing the boy as he was awaiting for Jellal's answer.

'No he isn't' he declared to himself. "This boy... is not the same Kaze Ryuenji... from back then" His eyes grew vicious, skeptical at the one named Kaze Ryuenji. However, he realized something. He looked at the card that he received from Kaze a few moments ago. Phantom Blaster Dragon: this was the one card that can help Jellal understand what is going on. "If he's not him... then why did he hold Phantom Blaster Dragon so...?" He took a look at the rest of his deck and which for the first time, gave off a weird vibe. Their usual dull and dead emotion was released with a sense of familiarity that was intense. It was obvious, to Jellal, and the deck in his hands: they needed to confirm their suspicions.

"You really don't remember anything?" Jellal asked.

"Hmmm.., well..." he started. "Lets have a cardfight. Beat me and I'll tell you everything you need to know."

[Kaze Natsume]

"Lets have a cardfight. Beat me and I'll tell you everything you need to know." the blonde haired guy stated to Kaze. In shock Kaze pulled out his deck as a sign to accept the challenge "I accept!!!" he said. Kaze thought to himself "Who is this guy and why does he seem to know something about me?" Kaze and the blonde haired guy walked to the nearest table. Both players set there Starters on the vanguard circle then proceed to shuffle there deck. "This could be my one and only change I can't mess this up." Kaze said to himself as he drew his opening hand.

-The fight starts-
Kaze: "Stand up, The Vanguard"
(Jellal): "Stand up, My Vanguard"

[shirii]

Dalis sat in the corner on the sofa, head resting on the top of it. In her hands rested her usual cards, the set of Pale Moon that she loved dearly, yet couldn't hear anything from it. The connection that she had always felt was missing, and no matter how hard she tried to reach out to them, they never replied. The communication she had gotten used to, an effortless instinct was impossible to recreate, and she didn't know what to do.

Letting out a sigh, she packed the cards away, slotting them in her back pocket. She leaned back, head hitting the wall and she closed her eyes, willing herself to fall asleep yet getting nowhere.

[Kaze Natsume]

-Both players at 4 Damage-
Kaze: "My Rear guard attacks!"
(Jellal): "I guard."
Kaze: "My Vanguard Attacks!"
(Jellal): "No guard."
Kaze: -something overcoming Kaze and causing him to genitally smirk tilting his head down as his hair covers his eyes- "Twin.. Drive"
(Jellal): "Hm?"
-Checks a Critical Trigger-
Kaze: "Crit Vanguard & Power to rear guard that hasn't attacked."
-Checks no trigger-
(Jellal): -checks the top to cards for a damage Trigger-
Kaze: -snaps out of it and sees that he won the game- "Good Game"
(Jellal): "Good Game"
The blonde hair kid decided to pack up his cards. Kaze goes around the table "So our deal... What do you know about me?!" Kaze stated to the guy.

Kaze awaits a reply from him

[Chr0nexia]

Daichi, with a pack of french fries in one hand and with a bag slung around his shoulder, walks into Card Capital.
He scans the crowd and looks for people he had previously met. His eyes rest on a girl who seems to be in visible discomfort.
Daichi approches her, "Hello, my name is Daichi, and you are?".

[Kisaragi Zane]

Jellal stops and stares at Kaze. He seemed eager to know know whatever it was that Jellal knew about him to reveal his past. However, Jellal was conflicted: the boy was no doubt the same Kaze Ryuenji however he was different in a good way. Any information about his past, might follow up with the past event that has left a tremendous level of guilt and fear in Jellal's soul. To tell or not to tell, those were his options as he packed up his deck.

Finally sliding the deck into it's case, he walked past Kaze. Slowly turning back, glaring at him with his light blue eyes. "Listen..." Jellal stated. "I can't tell you everything but you have a 'gift' of sorts." He looked up at the ceiling of Card Capital. "However I can tell you that the decks we currently have, and used to fight each other with just now..., aren't our true decks." The way Kaze fought, was the exact same as if he were fighting with his 'real' deck, something Jellal didn't want to see happen for a long while, especially in the state that he's in.

"But like I said, I can't really go into full detail about it right away. When the time comes, I'll tell you everything. But telling you now would interfere with a lot of things" he said while lifting up his deck case. "I need the power of this deck for the time being. It belongs to a friend, and I promised I'd return it to him in due time." Jellal grabbed his bag from the table and proceeded to leave Card Capital. He stopped at the glass door and slightly turned back at Kaze. "My name's Jellal Kisaragi, that much, I will tell you." The wheel of fate began to turn for both fighters: as their past is soon to unfolded.
