The boy sat on the roof of the school, mentally going over what had probably been the strangest (and certainly the slowest) match of the trial so far. 

In the end, the weird trash girl had continued to play in a ponderous fashion and ultimately met her demise at the hands of her own ace monster in what was probably the most confusing duel nobody had bothered to watch today. She had spent most of the match speaking as little as possible, in spite of her opponent's efforts to begin a conversation, but that was fine- he's managed to get her name, at least. Explored her deck. Beaten her. That was enough.

He rolled it around on his tongue a couple times, mimicking her voice. Yeah, that could work. He glanced around to make sure nobody was watching, then set to work on a new identity...

Meanwhile, elsewhere on campus...

"[color=bc8dbf]Hey, hey, take it easy there, au~ntie! Getting angry is bad for your com~plex~ion, don't you know?", the child laughed and waggled a finger at this sad, lonely girl, "Now, I under~stand what you're thinking, right? 'I'm being looked DOWN upon', right? I'm right, aren't I?[/color]"

The kid drew a card, cradling their head in the crook of their elbow.

"[color=bc8dbf]...Well, I can't say you're WRONG, rea~lly. Partner always says I should NEVER EVER under~estimate people, but I think SOME people just don't talent, you know~? If a girl can't even DRESS or TALK right, how can I expect her to DUEL right? That's like ask~ing a dog to play baseball! It's crazy, right?[/color]"

The kid shrugged.

"[color=bc8dbf]Don't worry, though~ I'm THROUGH playing nice with you. First, I play the continuous magic: Spring of Rebirth! While THIS card is on the field, I gain 500 life points ev~ery time a card returns to the hand! I also set one MORE card! I'm not done yet, though![/color]"

Another dust storm. Both of the previous weasels appeared, now joined by a taller, confident-looking one carrying a large sword. 

"[color=bc8dbf]I bring back Kama 3 and Tsujik, but also ANOTHER brother: Yosenju Kama 2! Like the other two, he has his OWN su~per special skill: If he wants to, he can attack directly at half power! Tsujik will use his ability to boost Kama 2's attack, then run you down, okay~? Here it comes![/color]"

Yosenju Kama 2 leaped into the air as Tsujik unsheathed its own blade and tossed it towards the confident-looking weasel. Kama 2 caught the offered weapon without visible effort, bringing both down in an overhand slash on Elly as it landed.

"[color=bc8dbf]-But wait, there's MORE! Thanks to Yosenju Kama 3's effect, I can now search ANY Yosenju card from my deck! I'll choose... THIS guy~! Yosenju Magat! Next, Kama 3 will attack your facedown, FULL FORCE![/color]"

Kama 3 streaked towards the facedown, possibly destroying it, possibly not. Either way, the result was effectively the same.

"[color=bc8dbf]Since Tsujik doesn't have his sword, I'll let him rest for this round~. With tha~t, I end my turn, and with it all three of my cu~te little Yosenju return to my hand, giving me an extra 1500 life points. I think that means it's your turn, au~ntie.[/color]"
