The guy being about twice Kei's size didn't seem to deter the little runt from running his mouth of, but the glare of death afterwards was another story entirely. [color=9C5F25]'[i]Crap, I think I made him mad...[/i]'[/color] he thought to himself, trying to maintain eye-contact. Maybe if he shouted really loud this guy would run off like a bear or something. The man seemed to have something to say, given the growl, so Kei braced himself for the worst. "Vending machine is part of my territory, if your just going to keep walking about, what you expect? People come and go from my territory in happiness from taking from my vending machine. Are you insulting my territory? Are you insulting me?" [color=9C5F25]"...w-what??"[/color] Kei replied in abject confusion. His [i]territory[/i]? What was the guy on about? And why was he talking like that? Kei took a step back. [color=9C5F25]"Fine- fine! I'll look at where I'm going next time!"[/color] he tried to placate the other man, but they were having none of it. Thought Kei was insulting him. Kei, for his part, was regretting speaking up in the first place. If he ran, maybe he could avoid getting decked. Instead, though, the man thought of a different solution. "We Duel now, I beat you, You restock Vending Machine." he said to Kei. [color=9C5F25]"I- HUH?!"[/color] he shouted, growing more and more confused. Why the hell would [i]Kei[/i] need to restock the vending machines? This guy made no sense, but if it's a duel he wanted, then... well, he'd probably best stop picking his nose to not dirty his cards, but on the other hand... [color=9C5F25]"Gaaah! I don't get any of this, but if it's a duel you want, I don't back down from anyone!"[/color] Kei's reply boldly sounded. He jumped back and opened a little bag attached to his belt, next to his deckbox. He took out a device and strapped it to something on his arm. After the two were connected, a blade folded outward. He looked down at the card he was still holding for a brief moment. [color=9C5F25]"I'm counting on you, partner."[/color] he whispered to it, slotting it back in with the rest of his deck so he could insert the whole pile into the Duel Disk. After the auto-shuffler worked its magic, Kei and his opponent both shouted out loud: [b][color=9C5F25]"DU[/color]EL!"[/b] Kei shouted [color=9C5F25]"I'm taking the first turn!"[/color] and drew five cards from his deck. He looked down at it with a grin. [color=9C5F25]"Let's go, everyone! I summon Blade Knight from my hand!"[/color] he excitedly shouted, grabbing the middle card and slamming it down onto his open zones. The Solid Vision projectors got to work immediately, materializing a gallant knight in light blue armor. It slashed its sword to the side once, then took a battle stance. [b]Blade Knight:[/b] 1600 ATK Kei giddily began bouncing in place. [color=9C5F25]"Cool... so cool...! Seeing my friends come to life like this is the best!"[/color] he said to himself. After calming down, Kei stretched out his arm and pointed at the opponent. [color=9C5F25]"I'm ending my turn with this! Bring it on!"[/color]
