As Leander rode the elevator, he took out a pack and began opening it. He knew it would be safer to open them elsewhere, but he couldn't resist waiting. In his mind, they were begging to be opened, and Leander had to answer the call. As he opened them, he saw quite a few cards that he knew would fit his deck, while others just looked cool. Leander noted that he was getting a lot of these "Gravekeeper" cards as well, which wasn't bad, but they weren't something he was interested in. The elevator door opened, and Leander decided that pack opening would have to wait a bit longer. As he put the cards away into a pocket, Leander looked up to see a friend of his. "Oh hey, good to see ya again!" Leander said cheerfully, greeting Hayato.

Hayato pushed the elevator button to head towards his room. As the elevator doors opened, he noticed a familiar face. "Speak of the devil, I was looking for you. I kinda wanted to apologize for leaving you behind the other day." Hayato stated. 

Leander chuckled at Hayato's apology, then dismissively said, "Ahh, don't worry about it. It's my fault for getting lost." Smiling, Leander continued, "So, what are you up to? I was gonna go find a place to open up some packs."

Hayato noted the fact he wanted to open his packs. "What about the cafeteria?" Hayato suggested. "We'll grab a bite while we're at it."

"Sounds good," Leander accepted. The cafeteria did sound good; a meal, card pack opening excitement, and maybe even a Duel afterwards. Leander looked at the multitude of buttons on the elevator pad, trying to remember which floor the cafeteria was on. After a moment, Leander eventually remmebered and pushed the corresponding button. The elevator doors closed, and the elevator made a swift descent. The doors opened once more, revealing a large room filled with benches and tables and trays. There were also quite a few students already inside, either eating, trading, Dueling, or just lounging around. 

Leander waited his turn in the line, grabbed a sandwich and a carton of milk, then found a table to sit down at. He took a bite out of his sandwich, then pulled out one of his Retro Packs and began opening it. "Ooh, Bottomless Trap Hole," Leander said after swallowing, noticing that particular card among the collection.

Hayato was 2 students behind Leander and decided to grab a sandwich and some juice. He didn't really care what was on the sandwich, and took a seat on the other side of the table across Leander. "Any good cards there? I know I got some more help for my army with my packs. You wanna see the other cards I pulled?" Hayato asked Leander though he should've just asked one thing at a time taking a bite of his sandwich. 

Opening up more packs and eating more of his sandwich, Leander was getting increasingly impressed with what he was getting from his packs. "Book of Moon, not bad," Leander said at one point. "Lightforce Sword, that looks fun," he said at another. Eventually, though, he ran out of packs to open, but that was ok; he now had to sort through his entire card collection and rearrange his deck. "Sure," Leander said in response to Hayato's last question before shoving the last of his sandwich into his mouth. He patted off his hands on each other, then pulled out his deck and placed them on the table. Quickly chewing and swallowing, Leander continued, asking, "What do you have?"

Hayato had put his cards back into the packs he had opened and simply spread them out on the table. "Not too much. My pull was alright. Take a look, I got a bunch of cards that don't quite work with my deck." Hayato inspected his haul once again, not seeing anything that struck him as useful other than card trader and the situational Electric Virus.

Leander occassionally looked at Hayato's cards as he made improvements to his own deck, taking out cards that weren't very useful and adding in cards that were a lot more useful. The process took only a few minutes. Once that was done, Leander held his deck with both hands at arm's length, admiring it. "I think this looks good," Leander said. "You wanna have a Duel?"

Hayato put up a smile. "Why, you think I was looking for you?" Hayato put his cards back into a stack and put them in his pocket, preparing his Duel Disk. "Its time for my second siege."

Leander grinned, readying his Duel Disk as well, stepping back to get some space for the Duel. "We'll see if the Samurai can overcome Heaven itself," Leander playfully taunted.

The two duelists got ready, and the Duel Disks powered up. The field was set. 

"Duel!" Leander and Hayato said.

Turn 1: Hayato
Hayato: 4000 LP, 5 cards, 0 Mon, 0 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 5 cards, 0 Mon, 0 S/T

Hayato drew his starting hand and started by taking a spell card and activating it  "I will start by activating Supply Squad, followed by The Six Samurai Yaichi, and end my turn," Hayato said, watching the black armored samurai wielding his trusty bow.

The Six Samurai - Yaichi - Level 3, ATK 1300

Turn 2: Leander
Hayato: 4000 LP, 3 cards, 1 Mon, 1 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 6 cards, 0 Mon, 0 S/T

"Draw!" Leander declared, drawing his next card. His hand was quite interesting at the moment. "I Summon the Tuner Monster, Nova Caller, in Attack Position!" Leander declared, a little orange wreath with wings and a trumpet appearing on the field.

Nova Caller - Level 1, ATK 100

"And now for its monster effect! When Nova Caller is Normal or Special Summoned, I can Special Summon a Parshath monster from my hand in Attack Position, but its ATK and DEF drop to zero!" Leander explained, the glorious centaur warrior appearing on the field.

AirKnight Parshath - Level 5, ATK 1900 --> ATK 0

"And now for some good ol' Tuning action!" Leander announced, the two monsters rising up into the sky. "Proud warrior of the sky! Rise up and accept your newfound strength! Synchro Summon! Level 6, Rising Knight Parshath!" Leander chanted, a more glorious version of Airknight Parshath appearing in place of the original.

Rising Knight Parshath - Level 6, ATK 2100

"Rising Knight, attack that samurai!" Leander commanded, the centaur galloping forward to swipe at the bowman.

Hayato watched his faithful samurai servant get destroyed and drew his card from Supply Squad. "You sure got some guts, messing with Synchro already," Hayato called out to Leander.

"What can I say? I like my Synchro," Leander replied, also drawing a card from Rising Knight Parshath's effect. "I now place 3 cards face-down and end my turn," Leander said.

Turn 3: Hayato
Hayato: 3200 LP, 5 cards, 0 Mon, 1 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 2 cards, 1 Mon, 3 S/T

Hayato drew his next card. "I'll set 2 cards and set a monster and end my turn," Hayato declared sighing at his current hand.

Turn 4: Leander
Hayato: 3200 LP, 2 cards, 1 Mon, 3 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 3 cards, 1 Mon, 3 S/T

"My turn. Draw!" Leander declared, drawing another card from his deck. "I play the Continuous Spell: The Light's Calling. With this effect, once per turn, I can Normal Summon a Level 5 Fairy-type monster without Tributing, and it just so happens that I have another Airknight Parshath in my hand," Leander said cheerfully, a second centaur warrior appearing on the field.

Airknight Parshath - Level 5, ATK 1900

"Battle Phase! Rising Knight, attack Hayato's face-down monster!" Leander commanded, the warrior galloping forward once more for a swipe of the sword.

The facedown card was another Yaichi, which he had recently opened from his packs.  "I'm sorry to report, but he will stay for another turn," Hayato said revealing Shien's Squire from his hand. "If I reveal the Squire in question, my Samurai cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. Hayato explained putting the Squire in the Graveyard.

"But since Rising Knight deals piercing damage, you still take damage!" Leander added, the wave of force striking Hayato.

Hayato - 3200 LP --> 1900 LP

 "A general must always take some hits for his soldiers," Hayato said bracing himself for the impact of the strikes incoming. "Lemme guess, they both have the same ability?"

"You know it!" Leander confirmed, drawing a card from Rising Knight's effect. "Now, Airknight Parshath, attack that Yaichi!" The second centaur warrior rushed forward to deliver a downward strike. 

Hayato - 1900 LP --> 800 LP

Drawing his next card due to Airknight Parshath's effect, Leander examined his new cards. Nothing impressive, but perhaps in time they could be useful. "Turn End," Leander said.

Turn 5: Hayato
Hayato: 800 LP, 2 cards, 1 Mon, 3 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 3 cards, 2 Mon, 4 S/T

Hayato drew a card from the top of the deck and looked at his card. "I switch Yaichi to Attack position and attack Airknight Parshath," Hayato ordered as a desparate measure to get one more card and watched Yaichi attempt to attack Airknight Parshath but was cut down the instant he tried to draw his bow. 

Hayato - 800 LP --> 200 LP

Hayato drew his card from the Supply Squad and laughed a little. "Now there are 2 Six Samurais in my Grave, I banish both my Yaichi's and Special Summon Enishi, Shien's Chancellor, and activate his effect to destroy one monster on the field. Of course, I choose to destroy your Synchro monster!" Hayato declared, setting another monster in facedown defense position, ending his turn. "Even if I am going to lose... I will not lose without a fight! Turn end!" Hayato declared.

Enishi, Shien's Chancellor - Level 6, ATK 2200

"Well, that's not fun," Leander said in mock disappointment as Rising Knight was downed. Truthfully, though, he liked the new development. Such a one-sided Duel like last time wouldn't be very fun. Leander wanted to see where this would go. Fortunately, he still managed to draw a card from when Yaichi kamikazed, so there was that.

Turn 6: Leander
Hayato: 200 LP, 1 cards, 2 Mon, 3 S/T
Leander: 4000 LP, 5 cards, 1 Mon, 4 S/T

"Draw!" Leander declared, drawing yet another card. Nothing to help him get out of his current pinch, but it was a fun card. "I'll Set one monster, then have Airknight Parshath attack that facedown monster of yours!" Leander said, Airknight Parshath rushing forward to attack.

The card revealed was Chamberlain of the Six Samurai 

Chamberlain of the Six Samurai - Level 3, DEF 2000

Leander flinched as the attack rebounded off the Chamerlain, taking 100 points of damage.

Leander - 4000 LP --> 3900 LP

"Setting up some defense, eh?" Leander asked rhetorically.

"What kind of question is that?" Hayato taunted. "Of course I'm setting up defence."

"Well then, I'll just place one card facedown and end my turn there," Leander ended.

Turn 7: Hayato
Hayato: 200 LP, 2 cards, 2 Mon, 3 S/T
Leander: 3900 LP, 3 cards, 2 Mon, 5 S/T

"Draw," Hayato said drawing his next card. "I summon Legendary Six Samurai - Mizuho" Hayato called out as the red armored female Samurai appeared before "I will also activate her effect and sacrifice Chamberlain of the Six Samurai and destroy your facedown monster as well as Parshath with Enishi!" Hayato quickly declared.

 Legendary Six Samurai - Mizhuho Level 3, ATK 1600

Leander had no defenses against Hayato's effects, so he was forced to watch his two monsters get destroyed. Although his defenses were being ripped to shreds, Leander was still having fun. It was the beginning of a turn-around, after all.

"Now you have no defenses... Mizuho, attack Leander directly!" Hayato ordered feeling a little more confident watching his new card do her job already

"I activate a Trap card: Negate Attack!" Leander countered, a whirlwind blocking Mizuho's blade before it connected.

"I end my turn," Hayato said, still with a board advantage.

Turn 8: Leander
Hayato: 200 LP, 1 cards, 2 Mon, 3 S/T
Leander: 3900 LP, 4 cards, 0 Mon, 4 S/T

"Now to see if my deck will listen in my time of need," Leander said, looking down at his deck. "Draw!" Leander declared, drawing his next card. Looking at the card, Leander was pleasantly surprised. "Ooooo.... wait a minute," Leander muttered, counting his fingers, then expressed mock frustration. "Darn, that won't work. Let's see..." Leander said, looking over the rest of his hand, then spotted one card that would do the job. "Ah, this will work," Leander said happily. Striking a pose, Leander announced, "Well now, it is time for one of the most glorious angels to arrive and reveal her presence!" 

"First, I discard Hecatrice from my hand to add Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen from my deck to my hand," Leander explained, pulling out the card that ejected itself and playing it onto the field, a stone hallway with red curtains emerging from the ground. "With Valhalla's effect, when I have no monsters on my field, I can Special Summon one Fairy-type monster from my hand, and that Fairy is...." Leander said as he held the card up into the air, pausing for dramatic effect. "Archlord Kristya!" Leander announced, playing the card. The red-winged angel descended from the heavens, wings flapping gently as it descended. 

Archlord Kristya - Level 8, ATK 2800

"2800 attack!?" Hayato exclaimed. "All you needed was 1800!" Hayato quickly said taking a step back.

"It's time for the grand finale!" Leander announced. "Archlord Kristya, attack Enishi!" The angel shot forward, hand raised to deliver the final blow.

Hayato braced himself for the impact watching his lifepoint tick down.

Hayato - 200 LP --> 0 LP

Hayato walked towards Leander and put out his hand. "That was certainly a good duel. I'm guessing I'm getting a bit rusty, but mark my words: The samurai shall conquer the heavens, no matter how long it takes," Hayato said with confident words after seeing his deck grow in strength.

As the monsters and the field faded away, and Hayato put out his hand, Leander returned the handshake. With a smile and a nod, Leander responded to Hayato's words with, "The heavens are always ready to accept that challenge."

Hayato laughed. "If I want to challenge you again, I might need your code." Hayato said pulling out his D-Ciever pointing at his rather empty friend list "That way we can call each other when we wanna set up a Duel,"

"Wait, these things can do that?" Leander said in surprise, pulling out his D-Ceiver. Pushing a few buttons, he managed to find the friendlist, and soon the two were on each other's friend lists. "Perfect!" Leander said happily as the job was done. "So, what do you wanna do now?" Leander asked.

"I need to take care of some stuff in my room. I still need to fill in that form for the luxury items. I believe Light gets 4 items rather than my 2," Hayato answered. "We'll see each other later then. I might take a nap after all that running with Hayate." Hayato said walking off into the distance holding his hand up

"Friend lists and luxury items... you learn something new every day," Leander muttered in amazement. "Sounds great! I'll be seeing ya another time, then!" With that said, Leander ran off, heading back to his dorm room.
