Megan's opponent had been waiting patiently, not giving any reaction when she burst through the door. Even though they didn't show a sign of body language anywhere, mostly because of it being completely covered, it seems they'd anticipated the girl coming. The taunting did seem to give off a slight reaction, though. The crimson fabric of the cloak got brushed to the side, and one arm revealed itself. The hand was gloved, and a long black sleeve from underneath didn't betray anything about their appearance either. Rather obviously if you knew your left from your right, the man was holding out the left arm. On the sleeve a three-piece disk connecting into a single circle was mounted. It's design looked like a primitive claw missing a thumb, two monster slots on each sides with a single one in the middle. It had a red and orange pattern of flames, somewhat betraying what they were probably using. Without a word the mystery person folded their arm back around to hold it out in front of Megan, and from over there she could see it was curved a little upward so she couldn't see what was behind the disk. 

[color=ed1c24]"There is no turning back."[/color] their disguised voice informed Megan, as the doors behind the girl slammed shut. The cloak's hood moved itself upwards to reveal a mechanized mask almost built into their face, with metal tubes running down the person's neck. The entire thing was coloured like fresh silver, glinting a pretty gray in the light. The eyeglasses were pitch black so eyes wouldn't have been able to be seen, and there seemed to be a lack of a nose... A horizontal tube ran across the place where you'd normally see a mouth, and a loudspeaker was built on the right cheek which was presumably where the mechanized voice came through from. All in all, they kind of looked freaky and weird. [hr]Leander collapsed in on himself and folded in half, clutching the stomach in pain. The mystery woman didn't seem to mind much, though. After all, the boy had challenged her to a duel and was more than likely aware of the consequences. He hadn't even been able to make a dent in her lifepoints, which was rather pathetic. The Lightforce Sword was a clever little play, she actually didn't have a second Mystical Space Typhoon at all. But by revealing the card so soon he'd sealed his doom, there was no way to stop the onslaught that'd come after. She de-activated her disk, it sliding back into place. Curiously, the other boy hadn't decided to join in. It was a little disappointing, but it was a wise choice in the end. 

The woman let out a sigh and brushed a few strand of hair to the side, then heard Vincent asking a question. Two, actually, and both related to the reason she was here. [color=6ecff6]"...Correct. I'm not here for simple destruction."[/color] she replied, but before they could get another word in, Vincent proceeded to ask his next question. Namely, if the woman could teach him how to Xyz summon. A slight twitch of the mouth was noticeable, before she actually raised her left hand to cover it. Looking away from Vincent, the woman started to... Laugh? It was muffled and a little quiet, but clearly a laugh. At least it only lasted a second or two, her looking back with an eternally amused expression. [color=6ecff6]"Teach Xyz summon? Me? No way in hell. You don't learn to Xyz, you just [i]do[/i] it."[/color] was her reply, and judging from the tone of her voice, the woman was a lot looser. [color=6ecff6]"No, no. I didn't come here to teach anything, boy."[/color] she continued.

[color=6ecff6]"Excuse me for the jab, Kiddo. But I had to show you you're a little too reckless. Y'see, the power of Rank-Up? The ability to make duels real? I'm by far not the only one to possess that strength."[/color] the woman started off, a more serious tone having been taken. She lowered the hand from her face, taking back a few steps. [color=6ecff6]"Don't panic, but there's a few of us around the school. I'm... Not sure what the rest is up to, but I'm here to give a warning to those I find deserve it."[/color] the adult explained, placing one hand on her hip and having those amber eyes dart over to Leander. [color=6ecff6]"Keep your head down. People with actual hostile intent are looking to pick off duelists with potential while they're still weak. Unlike me, they also don't hold back. Blondie, you're talented. You've got a natural affinity for the cards, but you're too by the book. You're also, really, naïve. And they'll take advantage of that. As for you,"[/color] the woman paused, then turned her head back to Vincent. [color=6ecff6]"You're the same as that other boy. Something's not right with you. It might not make sense to you, but your mind's foggy with violence. A natural affinity for battle. Don't get in over your head. Otherwise, you'll end up hurting yourself."[/color]

After finishing her explanation, some form of beeping came from the woman's disk. She looked down, only to see a lit up display. From where Leander and Vincent were, they couldn't tell what was written on it. But her face scrunched up into a grimace, which had to show it wasn't anything good. [color=6ecff6]"Time already, eh?"[/color] she muttered, relaxing her face and then turning her head back up to the two boys. [color=6ecff6]"Seems like we're not chatting for too much longer. Any questions?"[/color] she asked them both, looking extremely bored and annoyed for some reason.[hr]Shiyura had placed one hand on his hip, that dashing smile still playfully dominating his lips. Tsukiko had been [i]very[/i] hostile, which wasn't much of a surprise. A great deal of distrust just radiated from her, which was a little bit of a shame. They'd even make sure to scan the area to see if indeed nobody else was around, which the guy found just adorable. What'd make her think he'd have any interest in others? Surely Shiyura'd have put less effort into this lure if just any old person would do. No, there was something about Tsukiko that made him want to pick her out in specific. A reason they'd need this little one-on-one. [color=c7c7c7][b]"Oh, excuse me if I stepped out of my boundaries by asking for your name. I just like to know the name of whom I am talking to, sorry!"[/b][/color] they replied to Tsukiko brushing off the question, putting an intentionally joking tune to his voice. The second thing the girl said confused Shiyura just a tad more, though. What was this about her father? Is she that distrusting? What a pain... She didn't even bother to hide her feelings on the matter either, putting up a brave face that looks absolutely faked. The boy could easily see through the ruse, but it's not like they cared.

[color=c7c7c7][b]"Sorry, but I'm afraid I don't know who your father is, lady Tsukiko."[/b][/color] Shiyura replied, shrugging their shoulders all the while. [color=c7c7c7][b]"I'd do nothing as despicable as sell anyone out, though. That's just not in my nature, you see?"[/b][/color] Shiyura continued, their friendly body posture intensifying a little to have him come across as somebody you could trust to keep their word. The girl continued on about manners and how she didn't trust Shiyura yet, which the boy found funny. Of course Tsukiko didn't trust him. They were a complete stranger, after all, but that'd be fixed soon. [color=c7c7c7][b]"I don't think anybody would dare assume you Naïve. That doesn't quite seem like you, judging from this little conversation we're having."[/b][/color] was the guy's response to the whole thing. He let out another small laugh, dropping the hand on his hip down to the side. It casually hung next to a deckbox, secured tightly to a belt. [color=c7c7c7][b]"Hey, I'll show you something."[/b][/color] was all they said, before clicking it open. Without breaking eye contact, they effortlessly swiped a card from the pile and held it up in front of him, back turned to Tsukiko.

Now they did break eye contact, just so he could look at the card. A terrifying dragon was depicted on it, with it's mechanized body glimmering a beautiful black. Shiyura's friendly smile faded, and his body language seemed to indicate a more serious attitude. [color=c7c7c7][b]"I'm certain you're familiar with it."[/b][/color] he finally spoke, then twirled the card around in his fingers. What Tsukiko then would be able to see was a card she'd indeed have to recognize very well, after all, it is the ace of her deck. The card was a copy of 'Void Dragon'. [color=c7c7c7][b]"I'm not quite sure you know what kind of beast you're trying to tame."[/b][/color] he warned Tsukiko, looking dead serious. [hr]Ethel promptly ignored that last comment of Angelo's. She didn't want to waste anymore breath on this cretin, and him telling her to be more humble was a waste of breath anyway. All the girl did was verify she was cute, nothing particularly special. Ethel's ire started to rapidly pick up again, as a certain energetic girl started to mingle herself in just when things looked like they got settled. Ignia. Great... She was calling people numbers again, which was still a little creepy to Ethel. They started picking a fight with Angelo on how he had no chance to score with Ethel. Well, she was right in that fact. Maybe it had some value she lashed out against him, this way the boy might actually get the hint for once.

Ignia quickly turned to apologize to Ethel, who chose to reply with a quick [color=7ea7d8]"It's fine."[/color] and then turned her attention away from the commotion. It seems the last rider had just entered, so things were looking to move along pretty soon.
