Can Jaden possibly...?}}

A thunderstorm rolls over [[Jaden YukiDuel Academy]] one evening during the [[Genex Tournament]] as a Duel between an [[Obelisk Blue]] student and his opponent is challenged underway (in the dub, the Duelist tells the student it was time to a Duel by rest in pieces). The Obelisk Blue student [[control]]s "[[Lucien GrimleyMarauding Captain (anime)|Marauding Captain]] from ", "[[North AcademyArmed Samurai - Ben Kei (anime)|Armed Samurai - Ben Kei]]", who is revealed to be able to use the power of "[[The Grim ReaperLightning Blade (later anime)|Lightning Blade]] to win his ", and "[[DuelGreat Sword]]". His opponent'seyes glow red as he holds up his right hand marked with a human skull and a pair of bat wings, in exchange for which exhumes a black smoke circling around his soulforearm. During He pumps his right arm upwards and declares that his hand is crying out for victory (in the dub, he instead explains the power of [[DuelThe Grim Reaper (character)|the Grim Reaper]], to [[Jadendraw]] manages to survive Lucien's any card he wants) while it is shown he has [[One Turn Killactivate]] strategy, as d the [[Lucien Grimley|Lucien'sSpell Card]] ace card, "[[Slash Draw (anime)|Slash Draw]]". A violent wind picks up around and blows the dark smoke around the two Duelists. The Obelisk Blue student identifies him as the "Grim Reaper Duelist" (in the dub, can destroy all of the student fearfully states he was only in the tournament for the [[JadenGenex Medallion]]s). As the "Grim Reaper Duelist" draws the card he wants, a flash of lightning strikes behind him as he draws his card. As the lightning dissipates, the spirit of the Grim Reaper appears and towers over the "Grim Reaper Duelist". An invisible slash attack destroys the Obelisk Blue student's cards and damage blows him away in an [[JadenOne Turn Kill]] for every card he controlswhile the "Grim Reaper Duelist" laughs victoriously.

[[Jaden]] later discovers that [[Lucien Grimley|Lucien]] had lost faith Later, the "Grim Reaper Duelist" is setting at a log near a pond, basking in his victories with his recently-obtained Genex Medallions (in the dub, the Duelist states there is no way he would lose the tournament with his [[Deck]] long ago ). The Grim Reaper appears and sold reminds the Duelist of their pact: the 'Grim Reaper Duelist" would win the Genex Tournament in exchange for his soul . As the "Grim Reaper Duelist" vows to win, his vision blurs and he passes out from exhaustion (in the dub, the Grim Reaper suggests that the Duelist must rest, which the latter agrees to). Around the same time, [[The Jaden Yuki]] emerges from the bushes, having heard of the rumors of the "Grim Reaper]]Duelist", and challenges him (in the dub, if Jaden simply tells the monster spirit helped Duelist he heard him and challenges him). Jaden, along with [[Lucien Grimley|LucienSyrus Truesdale]] win all his and [[Duel|DuelsTyranno Hassleberry]]. In , see the endGrim Reaper, who disappears in a dark whirlwind, leaving Jaden perplexed. [[Lucien Grimley|LucienChazz Princeton]] loses finds a rectangular pendant around the [[Duel]], but not before regaining faith in himselfDuelist's neck and tosses it to Jaden, which results in him breaking his deal with contains the "[[The Grim Reaper]] and deciding to " card. Chazz explains that the "Grim Reaper" card was one of the seven wonders of [[DuelNorth Academy]] of his own free willthat was sealed away until it was stolen.

Lucien wakes up and immediately inquires about his Deck, which Jaden offers it to him along with his [[Duel Disk]]. Lucien expresses his relief to have his Deck, and Jaden identifies him as a nice guy based on how much he loves his Deck. Chazz questions how Jaden could be mellow (in the dub, Lucien snatches the Deck away. Jaden tells Lucien to relax since it was in good hands, but is interrupted by Lucien. Jaden nonchalantly calls Lucien grumpy and tells him that he needs more sleep, to which Chazz replies that no one could be as happy as he is). Lucien recognizes Jaden and Chazz, whose natural drawing power made them the favorites to win the Genex Tournament. Lucien boasts that their drawing would end by defeating them both with his One Turn Kill Deck (in the dub, Lucien has heard that Jaden is leading the tournament, but not for long, boasting that his Deck in unbeatable). Chazz knows Lucien is talking big></center>and asks if he ''could'' win (in the dub, Chazz asks Lucien what makes hi special). Lucien realizes that his pendant carrying the "Grim Reaper" card is missing and demands to know from Jaden and Chazz where they put the card. Chazz reveals that he locked the card in a locked box inside a tightly-sealed suitcase in his [[Slifer Red]] dorm room, guarded by "[[Ojama Yellow (anime)|Ojama Yellow]]", "[[Ojama Black (anime)|Ojama Black]]", and "[[Ojama Green (anime)|jama Green]]". The spirit of [[Ojama Yellow (character)|Ojama Yellow]] materializes, assuring Chazz that the "Grim Reaper" card wouldn't get out (in the dub, Ojama Yellow tells the Grim Reaper he isn't going anywhere as long as he is in charge).

<u>''Chazz scolds Lucien for handling a dangerous card and explains the legend behind the "Grim Reaper": it is able to give the owner the power to draw any card capable of performing a One Turn Kill in exchange for the Duelist's soul, which is why North Academy sealed it away. Jadenwonders if the "Grim Reaper" card is the secret behind the "Grim Reaper Duelist's turn'''</u><br />*[[Normal Summon]]s "[[Elemental Hero Clayman]]" power ([[800 ATK Monster Cards|800 ATK]] / [[2000 DEF Monster Cards|2000 DEF]]in the dub, Jaden asks if the spirit he saw was the real Grim Reaper) in [[Defense Position]]. Lucien then explains the reasoning behind carrying the "Grim Reaper" card.

*In a flashback, Lucien, while attending North Academy, is defeated by [[SetCzar]], who mocks Lucien's Deck for being useless. Lucien curses and muttered if he only drew "that card", but Czar scoffs, telling Lucien that the world of Dueling isn't soft enough for Lucien to go by with "what-if" scenarios before walking away (in the dub, Czar tells Lucien that he should stick to "[[wikipedia:Go Fish|Go Fish]]" and laughs as he walks away). Lucien grumbles and grits his teeth while a cardsingle teardrop falls on the ground below and the flashback ends (in the dub, the teardrop sequence is cut).

<u>'''In the present, Lucien's turn'''</u><br />*[[Activate]]s grips the bedsheets and accuses Jaden and Chazz of not understanding what it feels to be unable to draw the right card when it counts (in the dub, Luciens states that his loss against the Czar prompted him to et help from the "Grim Reaper"[[Temptation of card). Jaden replies that it was no reason for Lucien to mess with the Goddess]]risky "Grim Reaper"card, which forces [[only for Lucien to tell Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] to reveal shut up, admitting that he couldn't care less about his soul. Lucien vows to claim victory at the Genex Tournament as the dark smoke billows from the skull marking on his [[right hand]]and around his forearm. If a [[Level 4 Monster Cards|Level 4]] or below [[monster]] is Lucien pumps up his right fist and calls for the Grim Reaper to return to him and bring him victory with his One Turn Kill Deck in [[Jaden]]'s [[hand]]exchange for his soul. The dark smoke billows around the infirmary, [[Jaden]] has startling Syrus and Hassleberry away. The infirmary doors open to reveal a dazed [[Special Summon|summonVellian Crowler]] itenveloped with a dark aura, possessed by the spirit of the Grim Reaper as he carries the pendant containing its card form. [[Jaden]] reveals "[[Elemental Hero Avian]]"A beaten-up Ojama Yellow covered in bandages appears to Chazz, "[[Elemental Hero Burstinatrix]]", "[[Burst Impact]]" explaining he and his brothers tried their hardest; Chazz cringes and "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman]]"calls the brothers useless (in the dub, and [[Ojama Yellow asks if Chazz really thought if he could stop the Grim Reaper; Chazz sarcastically thanks him for nothing). Lucien Grimley|Lucien]] forces [[Jaden]] vows to [[summon]] "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman|Sparkman]]" not let anyone mock his Deck ([[1600 ATK Monster Cards|1600 ATK]] / [[1400 DEF Monster Cards|1400 DEF]]in the dub, Lucien states he knew the Grim Reaper would find his way back) in [[Attack Position]], snatches the pendant fro Crowler, and runs out of the infirmary with Jaden pursuing him.

*Activates "[[Mischief Jaden pursues Lucien outside the main entrance of the Goddess]]"Duel Academy main building, which forces [[who makes his presence known as he wears the pendant. Lucien tells Jaden]] to reveal that the skull on his [[right hand]] again. If a [[Spell Card]] is longing for victory and wants to hear Jaden in his last moments (in the dub, Lucien instead states that he would take the lead in [[the tournament by defeating Jaden]]'s hand, [[). Jaden]] realizes that the Grim Reaper has to [[set]] ita hold on Lucien and holds out his Duel Disk, accepting his challenge. ThereforeLucien laughs as he activates his Duel Disk, [[Jaden]] [[set]]and the Grim Reaper's "[[Burst Impact]]"spirit appears behind him. The storm clouds thunder as both Duelists begin their match.

*Activates "[[Slash Draw]]". With 4 cards on Jaden takes the [[field]]first turn, draws, Lucien can and [[sendNormal Summon]] 4 more cards from the top of his s "[[Deck]] Elemental Hero Clayman (revealed to be "[[Reloadanime)|Elemental Hero Clayman]]", "in [[Magical Stone ExcavationDefense Position]]", "[[Exchange of . Lucien counts the Spirit]]", and "[[Big Eye]]") to first card on the [[Graveyardfield]] . Jaden notices this and [[draw a card|drawSet]] 1 more s a cardand ends his turn. If Lucien counts the second card he draws . Syrus and Hassleberry arrive as the Duel begins; the former wonders if Jaden will be okay while the latter replies that a One Turn Kill Deck is leaving things to luck. Chazz arrives and explains that Lucien is "[[Slash Draw]]"carrying the Grim Reaper's drawing power (in the dub, Hassleberry asks Syrus if he can send it believes the stories about winning in one turn. Chazz explains the Grim Reaper's power to the Graveyard, [[Jaden]] will have all his cards [[destroy]]ed and lose 1000 [[Life Points]] per draw any card sent to the [[Graveyard]]Lucien wants).

*With "Lucien draws and [[Slash Drawactivate]]'sthe Spell Card " [[effectTemptation of the Goddess]]", Lucien draws another "forcing Jaden to [[reveal]] his [[hand]] and allowing him to [[Slash DrawSpecial Summon]]", so a [[JadenLevel 4]]or lower monster to Jaden's field. Jaden reveals his hand, which contains "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman(anime)|Elemental Hero Sparkman]]", "[[Elemental Hero Avian (anime)|Elemental Hero Avian]]", "[[Elemental Hero ClaymanBurstinatrix (anime)|Elemental Hero Burstinatrix]]", and his "[[Burst Impact (anime)|Burst Impact]]". Lucien chooses to Special Summon "Sparkman" to Jaden's field in [[Attack Position]], leaving Jaden to wonder what Lucien is trying to do, who counts the third card. He then activates the Spell Card "[[setMischief of the Goddess]] ", forcing Jaden to reveal his hand and allow Lucien to Set a Spell Card from his hand to Jaden's [[Spell & Trap Zone]]. Lucien remembers that Jaden's hand contains "Burst Impact" and forces him to Set it. When Jaden Sets "Burst Impact", Lucien counts the fourth card and declares that the groundwork is laid out for his One Turn Kill strategy. As Jaden and his friends watch, Lucien activates his trump card, "Slash Draw", allowing him to [[send]] the number of cards from the top of his [[Deck]] to the [[Graveyard]] equal to the number of cards on the field. Since Jaden's field has four cards, Lucien sends four cards to the Graveyard (among the [[mill]]ed cards being "[[Reload (anime)|Reload]]", "[[Magical Stone Excavation (anime)|Magical Stone Excavation]]", "[[Exchange of the Spirit (anime)|Exchange of the Spirit]]" , and "[[Hero MedalBig Eye (anime)|Big Eye]]" ) and then explains that if the next card is another copy of "Slash Draw", then all cards on the field are all [[destroy]]edand Jaden takes 1000 points of damage for each card destroyed. Syrus realizes that there are four cards and Hassleberry deduces the reason for Lucien getting cards out on Jaden's field. Chazz questions if Lucien's Deck is the one that relies on the Grim Reaper's drawing power (in the dub, Chazz states that if Lucien picks "SLash Draw", then the Duel is over and telling Jaden "rest in peace, dork"). Jaden is skeptical that Lucien will draw the next copy of "Slash Draw"; Lucien demonstrates the power of the skull mark on his right hand. He pumps it up in the air and the dark smoke billows around his body while he warns Jaden to brace himself against the moment that his One Turn Kill Deck defeats him. The dark smoke materializes into the Grim Reaper, who asks Lucien if he craves victory or his soul. Lucien replies that he craves the latter (in the dub, the Grim Reaper states his price is Lucien's soul, which the latter agrees to). As he draws his second "Slash Draw", a slashing shockwave flies across the field, destroying all of Jaden's cards on the field in multiple explosions.

*HoweverAs Lucien reveals his second "Slash Draw" and declares his victory, [[Jaden]] he is revealed surprised to only have lost 3000 see Jaden standing as the smoke clears with his [[Life PointsPoint]] (s reduced to 1000. Jaden: 1000 LP)happily reveals that he is saved by his first Set card, because when "the [[Hero MedalTrap Card]]" is [[destroyHero Medal (anime)|Hero Medal]]ed", it which is [[shuffle]]d back into [[Jaden]]'s his [[Deck]] instead of going to the Graveyard when it is destroyed and allows him to draw a card. Chazz deduces that the damaging effect of "Slash Draw" only [[Graveyardresolve]]s when the destroyed cards are sent to the Graveyard, to which Hassleberry deduces that the damage won't be applied is the cards are not sent to the Graveyard (in the dub, Hassleberry realizes why Jaden only loses 3000 Life Points). Lucien is surprised to see Jaden evade his One Turn Kill; Jaden apologizes and compliments Lucien's Deck, but he feels something is missing from it (in the dub, Jaden tells Lucien not to worry and name it the "Two Round Win", but he doesn't plan to lose then, either). Lucien angrily feels as if Jaden is mocking his Deck (in the dub, Lucien gets angry at Jaden for mocking the Grim Reaper) and activates the Spell Card "[[JadenFootsteps of the Goddess]] can ", forcing Jaden to reveal his hand and allowing him to Special Summon a monster with 1500 or less [[draw a card|draw 1 new cardATK]] from his hand to Jaden's field, in exchange for Lucien Special Summoning a monster with 1500 or less ATK from his hand to his field. Lucien Special Summons "Avian" to Jaden's field while also Special Summoning "[[DeckInvincible Demise Lord]]" to his field. Lucien explains he cannot attack the turn he activates "Footsteps of the Goddess" and ends his turn (in the dub, Lucien remarks that it might be a "Two Round Win").

*Activates Jaden begins his turn and draws his turnaround trump card, "[[Footsteps of Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" (in the dub, Jaden states, he drew what he needed without the GoddessGrim Reaper's help), fusing "Avian" with "Burstinatrix" in his hand to [[Fusion Summon]]his "favorite card", forcing "[[JadenElemental Hero Flame Wingman (later anime)|Elemental Hero Flame Wingman]] " in Attack Position. Jaden orders "Flame Wingman" to attack "Invincible Demise Lord" with "[[Special SummonAttack and effect names in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|summonInfernal Rage]] " as "Flame Wingman" shoots a [[burst of fire from its dragon cannon arm, destroying the opposing monster. As Lucien's Life Points drop from 4000 to 3200, Jaden explains the effect of "Flame Wingman", inflicting damage to Lucien equal to the destroyed monster]] 's ATK. Lucien gasps as "Flame Wingman" shoots him with his dragon arm cannon, engulfing him with fire and dropping his Life Points from 3200 to 1900. Syrus and Hassleberry cheer for Jaden as he ends his turn. Lucien expresses his jealousy of Jaden being blessed by his [[drawing power; he knew what was in Jaden's hand]]and hoped he wouldn't draw a turnaround card used to defeat his "Invincible Demise Lord", but still drew well and questions why his drawing shouldn't be powerful (in the dub, Lucien instead expresses his jealousy towards Jaden's luck, which is something he never had). Syrus explains that Duelists look into how well they would draw right as they make them (in the dub, Syrus explains that Jaden draws what he needs because he believes in his Deck). Lucien explains he did exactly that, if but he could never draw the right card he wanted when it has 1500 [[ATK]] mattered to him or lesspull off a combination until he gained the Grim Reaper's power. He holds up his right arm and explains that he did everything to grace the "goddess of drawing", but had no choice and turned to the Grim Reaper's power. He vows to prove how good his Deck is by putting his soul on the line (in the dub, Lucien did try believing in it, but it wasn't enough and the power of the Grim Reaper would help him win by drawing the card he needs, which is worth more than his soul. [[He claims that Jaden]] [[summon]]is jealous becayse the Grim Reaper's power belongs to him). Lucien then explains that the effect of "Invincible Demise Lord"Special Summons itself from the Graveyard during the [[Elemental Hero AvianEnd Phase]]it is destroyed. The ground erupts from underneath, and " ([[1000 ATK Monster Cards|1000 Invincible Demise Lord" appears as Lucien explains that its ATK]] / becomes 3000 and cannot be destroyed by [[1000 DEF Monster Cards|1000 DEFcard effect]]s. "Invincible Demise Lord" swipes its scythe, releasing souls that spook Syrus, Hassleberry. Chazz acknowledges that the monster looks dangerous (this part is cut from the dub) in [[Attack Position]] with its effect.

*By activating Lucien draws and orders his "Invincible Demise Lord" to attack "[[Footsteps Flame Wingman" with "End of the Goddess]]Soul". The monster swings its scythe and releases a slashing shockwave that destroys "Flame Wingman"in an explosion, [[reducing Jaden's Life Points to 100. Lucien Grimley|laughs and feels that winning against a Duelist with incredible natural drawing power will make his Deck shine brighter (in the dub, Lucien]] can also asks Jaden if his good luck streak ended). Jaden draws and Normal Summons his "[[Special SummonDandylion (later anime)|summonDandylion]] a [[monster]] from his hand " in [[Attack Defense Position]], if it has 1500 [[ATK]] or lessSets a card, and ends his turn. Lucien laughs at the notion of Jaden not drawing his turnaround cards right away, but Jaden replies that monster cannot [[attack]] during ''all'' of his cards are turnaround trump cards (in the [[turn]] it is [[summon]]ed. He [[Special Summon|summons]] dub, Jaden warns that "[[Invincible Demise Lord]]Dandylion" ([[1300 ATK Monster Cards|1300 ATK]] / [[2000 DEF Monster Cards|2000 DEF]]would surprise Lucien).

<u>'''Jaden's turn'''</u><br />*Lucien draws and [[Activatediscard]]s two Spell Cards from his hand to the Graveyard (the sent cards being "[[PolymerizationBook of Taiyou (anime)|Book of Taiyou]]", which fuses and "[[Elemental HeroesMonster Reincarnation (anime)|Monster Reincarnation]] ") in order to activate the Spell Card "[[Elemental Hero AvianSpell Reproduction (anime)|AvianSpell Reproduction]]" (on the . Jaden is shocked and explains its effect to [[fieldadd]]) a Spell Card from the Graveyard to the hand. Lucien affirms that he would be adding "Slash Draw" from his Graveyard to his hand and reveals that he has a copy of "[[Elemental Hero Burstinatrix|Burstinatrix]]Slash Draw" left in his Deck. Chazz realizes that Lucien will use the power of the Grim Reaper to draw the card and wonders if he would sacrifice his soul to win the Genex Tournament (in the dub, Chazz realizes that Lucien has a third "Slash Draw" and he would use the power of the reaper to draw it and win the Duel). Jaden answers that it was not the case; Lucien loves his [[hand]]Deck that he would stake his soul for it (in the dub, Jaden instead says that Lucien is not going to use the Grim Reaper and instead use it on his own) . Jaden understands Lucien wanted to win because he wanted people to respect his Deck, as someone who could do what Lucien did when making his Deck. Jaden explains this is because Lucien put how much he wanted into "[[Elemental Hero Flame Wingman]]" his Deck to pump up his opponent ([[2100 ATK Monster Cards|2100 ATK]] / [[1200 DEF Monster Cards|1200 DEF]]in the dub, Jaden tells Lucien that he should believe in his Deck and he can draw any card. He also explains the reason Lucien made a deal with the Grim Reaper is because he was afraid, but he didn't need him because Dueling isn't about luck). Lucien replies that Jaden might enjoy the Duel, who appears but it was also because he gained the Grim Reaper's drawing power; Jaden says it wasn't the case and stated that if he loved his Deck like Lucien loved his, then it will always come through to him (in [[Attack Position]]the dub, Lucien tells Jaden it was easy for him to say because he draws the exact card he needs, but Jaden assures Lucien that he can to if he can believe). This reminds Lucien of when he assembled his Deck at North Academy, which he proudly presents as his One Turn Kill Deck.

*Lucien remembers the reason he wanted to show off the Deck that he loves (in the dub, Lucien remembers he used to have faith in his Deck similar to Jaden). The Grim Reaper appears to Lucien and reminds him that victory was what he desired so he could prove its strength to the North Academy students who mocked it, including Czar (in the dub, the Grim Reaper reminds Lucien how having in faith in his Deck caused him loss and embarrassment, and without him, Lucien's combo would never work). Lucien strains as he activates "Slash Draw", sending the top three cards from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard (among the [[Elemental Hero Flame Wingman|Flame Wingmanmill]]ed cards being " [[attackMystic Tomato (anime)|Mystic Tomato]]s and ", "[[destroyDes Feral Imp (anime)|Des Feral Imp]]s ", and "[[Invincible Demise LordBook of Moon (anime)|Book of Moon]]" ) and draw one more card. The billowing darkness around Lucien's arm intensifies as Jaden realizes the card that was missing from Lucien's Deck - his heart (in the dub, Jaden tells Lucien to fight the Grim Reaper's power and believe in his Deck and draw; he doesn't need the Grim Reaper). The Grim Reaper reminds Lucien: 3200 LPthat the proof of their pact won't vanish from his right hand and orders him to draw and claim his victory (in the dub, the Grim Reaper tells Lucien to not listen to Jaden and draw the card with the arm empowered by the Reaper and deliver his soul to him). As Lucien reaches for his card, he admits to wanting to win the Duel before removing the pendant from his neck and declares that he wants to believe in his Deck. Lucien throws the pendant away, and the Grim Reaper screams as its spirit dematerializes (in the dub, Lucien states that Jaden is right and outwardly breaks his agreement with the Grim Reaper).

*The storm clouds part and reveal a full moon. Lucien throws his Duel Disk from his left arm in the air and catches it with his right arm, much to the surprise of Syrus, Hassleberry, and Chazz. Lucien apologizes to his Deck and regains his belief in it as the darkness wrapped around his right arm disappears. He draws his card, which is revealed to be the third copy of "Slash Draw". Lucien thanks his Deck (in the dub, Lucien says "In your face, Reaper") and reveals it to Jaden, which exudes a dark whirlwind towards Jaden's field, and an explosion happens. Jaden acknowledges that Lucien's Deck cam through for him, but is unwilling to lose as he reveals his Set [[Elemental Hero Flame Wingman|Flame WingmanCounter Trap Card]]'s" [[effectEmergency Evasion]] triggers", which he activated in response to the activation of a Spell Card, [[Effect Damage|inflicting damagebanish]] ing "Dandylion" from his field. Lucien is impressed by how Jaden evaded his "Slash Draw" once again; Jaden replies he has his own heart-to-hearts with his Deck, which is how he Duels with everything. Lucien tells Jaden their Duel is interesting and his combo isn't finished yet, reminding him that "Invincible Demise Lord" can't be destroyed by card effects. Jaden correctly deduces that Lucien will finish him off with "Invincible Demise Lord", which Lucien commands to attack Jaden directly. Jaden explains the effect of "Emergency Evasion" after the Spell effect is resolved, allowing him to draw a card from his Deck, and if it is the same [[Lucien Grimley|Luciencard type]] equal as the banished card, it is returned to the field. Jaden acknowledges that the card he needs to draw is a [[ATKMonster Card]] , otherwise, Lucien will win. Lucien asks if Jaden is proving the strength of his bond with his Deck as he draws, which is revealed to be a Monster Card - "[[Elemental Hero Neos (anime)|Elemental Hero Neos]]", much to Lucien's surprise. Jaden thanks his Deck as "Dandylion" returns to the field in Defense Position. As Lucien and Jaden both happily acknowledge their Duel, Lucien commands "Invincible Demise Lord" to attack with "End of Soul". The monster swings its scythe and releases a slashing shockwave that destroys "Dandylion" in an explosion, but Jaden explains the effect of "Dandylion" to Special Summon two "[[Fluff Token (anime)|Fluff Tokens]]" (to his field in Defense Position, which appear in puffs of smoke. Lucien: 1900 LP)ends his turn.

*During Jaden draws and Lucien wonders what miracle he will make (this part is cut from the dub). Jaden [[End PhaseTribute]], s his two "Fluff Tokens"to [[Tribute Summon]] "Neos" in Attack Position. Lucien reminds Jaden that "Invincible Demise Lord]]" is has higher ATK than "Neos". Jaden [[Special Summons from your Graveyard|re-summonedequip]] to s "Neos" with the [[fieldEquip Spell Card]], with 3000 "[[ATKNeos Force (anime)|Neos Force]] ", increasing its 2500 ATK by 800 to 3300 ATK, all while "Neos'" body is enveloped in a multicolored aura. Jaden commands "Neos" to attack with "Cosmic Crush"; the monster jumps and immunity dives towards "Invincible Demise Lord", destroying it in an explosion. Jaden then activates the effect of "Neos Force" to destruction from [[card effects]]inflict damage to Lucien equal to the destroyed monster's ATK. Lucien backs away as "Neos'" rainbow aura grows brighter, causing his Life Points to drop to 0, winning Jaden the Duel. Syrus and Hassleberry cheer for Jaden while Chazz simply scoffs.

<u>''Lucien lays on his back defeated as his cards are scattered in the air. Jaden assumes his usual victory pose, pointing at him with two fingers and says "Gotcha!", telling Lucien the Duel was fun (in the dub, Jaden says "That's game!" and says that he and Lucien should Duel again sometime). Lucienraises his right arm with two fingers pointed upward for victory, agreeing that the Duel was fun as the Grim Reaper's turnskull mark disappears from the back of his right hand. Lucien realizes that the fun for Dueling and the love for a Deck isn'''</u><br />*[[Attack]]s t about the outcome. He looks up to see his cards descending in the air. Smiling, he tearfully tells his Deck he loves it and promises to work together. Syrus and [[destroy]]s "[[Elemental Hero Flame Wingman]]" Hassleberry join Jaden while Chazz watches from afar with "[[Invincible Demise Lord]]" a satisfied smirk (in the dub, Lucien tanks Jaden: 100 LPfor restoring faith in himself and his cards and promises to never lose faith again).
