(Your POV)

"You've clean yourself up nicely."- 96

"Hm?"- (y/n)

"I'm just commenting on your new look."- 96

"I'm not to sure about the hair but, Yuma said I could use his hair gel if I wanted."- (y/n)

"Remember don't get too comfortable. We still need to collect his numbers."- 96

"I know that 96. Seriously you need to invest in a hobby."- (y/n)

"Oh hey Pot, names Kettle nice to meet you."- 96

Let's see when I met Tori and the others I was going on about 3 weeks but, no it's about a month and a half. Thanks to Tori and Yuma's family I've been starting to get to know a bit more about this place. Speaking of Tori she's actually been doing pretty good with her dual studies so much so that she's more than capable of taking care of herself. She does have her slew ups every now and then if I had to give her a grade she's a solid D. As for the others I've seen there duel skills too and most of them are C's or slightly lower. 96 doesn't really like Bronk all that much cuz he beat him in a duel but, I decided to be nice and duel for him and won. Oh yeah I also managed to get my own duel disc and duel gazer, the ones I had before was a hunk of junk that kept messing up. I'm not doing anything important today just walking around and enjoying the sights.

'Today looks like it'll be a good day.'- (y/n)

Is what I thought before I started to feel something tug at my pants. Looking down to see what it was I saw a dog I haven't seen in awhile.

"Oh hey, it's you again. Haven't seen you in a good while, how've you been?"- (y/n)

""- dog

I started to crouch down to pick him up but, he just moved out the way. I was confused because he likes me before so I tried to do it again but, just like last time he moved out the way. It seems like he wanted me to follow him somewhere so I just stood up straight and let him lead the way. I kept on following him until we round up at a place that haven't been to in a while.

"Wait a minute. Isn't this that Hishakaku guys place?"- (y/n)

"You mean the person whose number we didn't collect."- 96

"Oh don't start. Besides it wasn't useful to us anyway. And I'm more important note, why did the dog bring us here?"- (y/n)

I walked inside to see what was going on and first thing I saw was Hishakaku on the ground. In nothing but pure shock I ran over to him and start to lightly shake them. I didn't get a response so I turned him over to his back and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

"His number was taken."- (y/n)

"The question is by who?"- 96

"Well well well, look what the dog decided to drag in."- ???

I turned my head to the side and saw some guy. He has light blue-grey eyes, pale skin and blonde hair that curls up in a point with a dark green spiked front and bangs. He's wearing a black trench coat with a high collar over a grey shirt and white pants with black boots. He also wears a belt with two purple Deck boxes.

"Did you do this?"- (y/n)

"And what if I did? I'm assuming he was a friend of yours?"- ???

"So you must be the number hunter Kite."- (y/n)

"That's right, I see my reputation precedes me."- Kite

"More like a person I know gave a good description."- (y/n)

"Well I don't care you lackeys are all the same to me."- Kite

"Master K-k-k-kite! I'm sensing a lot of number energy coming off of this individual. He has several numbers in his possession."- Robot

"Is that so? Hey runt, what do you say we have ourselves a little dual? Not like you actually have a choice."- Kite

"Funny of you to think I was going to say no. Let's do this!!"- (y/n)

"I'm pretty sure you don't mind that I go first! To start I'm going to summon photon thrasher!"- Kite

"Next I'm going to send a galaxy worm from my hand to the graveyard in order of me to summon. Galaxy Soldier!!"- Kite

"And when Galaxy soldier is special summoned I can add one Galaxy monster from my deck to my hand."- Kite

While he was getting the card he wanted I noticed 96 started to make himself visible next to me. When he did for some reason that got the number hunters complete attention.

"Wait a minute. Astral is that you?"- Kite

"Who dear old me? Hehehe no I'm not that holier than now Astral. But yet at the same time I am. My name is number 96, and all you need to know is that I'm going to be stealing those numbers of yours."- 96

"Gee thanks for making me feel included seeing as I'm the one dueling."- (y/n)

"Oh hush. Besides I'm very curious to see what this guy can do so far he's been showing nothing but, promise as a duelist. So if you don't mind can you get on with your turn."- 96

"Tch whatever! I don't know what you're doing with this guy and frankly I don't care. But just know this it's not going to end in a tie this time! Now I tribute my 2 monsters so I can summon my strongest beast!"- Kite

"And now I'll end my turn with 2 face downs."- Kite

Oh man, Yuma wasn't kidding when he said this guy is a threat. He just summoned the freaking 3000 ATK monster on his first turn. And something tells me it's going to be a pain in the ass to get rid of.
