Season 54, Week 3
Geno
(Super Mario RPG)
 
After handling a Heavy champion, Geno is up for another challenge: the Detective "Prince," Naoto Shirogane, whose deductive skills and ability to manipulate Light and Darkness are quite possibly a match for Geno's star-given gifts. However, the stargazer is about to do what he does best: against Naoto, his trademark Geno Whirl is more than capable of ending the fight immediately, bypassing her evasion and tricks before she can attempt anything. And with a large speed edge, even if she somehow makes a recovery, Naoto won't be able to put the doll out in time for a second Whirl. The guardian of the stars, once again, shall prevail in the fields of the Duelling League.

"The truth is hiding in your eyes.." A doll like Geno can't hide anything from Naoto, world-class investigator. The Shirogane clan has a long history of successful detectives and Naoto is no different. Her youth and gender mean nothing; she was one of the main players in helping to solve the Inaba murders. She'll use her evasion and speed instead of her brain here - she'll need to evade the deadly Geno Whirl and grab a chance at victory. Naoto's slight frame and quickness means she's plenty good at that, and her own Mudoon is good enough to dispatch Geno as soon as she takes aim. Just ask the Killer of Inaba - No one escapes Naoto's sights once she locks onto you!

In a column of light, the puppet fell lifeless, defeated. The Detective Prince, however, looked on confused.

"...huh? It didn't disappear?" ...shooting it once simply splintered wood all over the place, as she came to a realization that she never anticipated.

"...it's not a Shadow? ...strange."

As she was about to exit, a loud...slurred...call came from the stands.

"Naoto-chaaaan! Hurry up!" a drunken Rise called. "I'm gonna staart a round of King's Game once everyone's back from their fights! You're the only one left!"

...the bifauxnen could only sigh, furrow her eyebrows in annoyance, and lower her hat as she walked out of the arena, not looking forward to the upcoming events...
