Yu-Gi-Oh GX Stars: Darkness Moon
Chapter 20: Wicked Gods and Demon Ancestors
(Deep within the abandoned dorm; a short time after we left our heroes and heroines)
Within the dueling arena within the abandoned dorm, where Jaden and Alexis dueled Titan different times, we find Valkyrie Sailor Moon, still in her `Yu-Zen' state, through with her blue eyes instead of dark violet, Tuxedo Mask, the eight Eternal Twilight Sailor Scouts of the Moon Kingdom, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, Eternal Sailor Pluto, Eternal Sailor Earth, Twilight Sailor Mini-Moon, her guardians, the Sailor Quartet, Yusuke, Hikari, Eternal Twilight Sailor Universe, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Inuyasha, Kagome, Jaden, Alexis, Jasmine, Mindy, Danielle, Shala, Yeshua, Botan, and Koenma assembled together.
Jaden asks, curiously, “So, this is where the `weak point' between the two worlds are?”
Koenma replies, plainly, “Yes. Since there has been huge flux of shadow powers and the barrier between the Shadow Realm is weakest here, the gateway between other worlds, especially Demon World, is the weakest.”
Sailor Pluto says, in a plain tone, “Prince Koenma does make a valid point. We can get into the Makai the best from here.”
Sailor Mars says, with a serious tone, “So, what are we waiting for?! Let's get going!”
Sailor Earth says, with a serious tone, “Going into the realm of the demons isn't a walk in the park, Princess of Mars! That's their home territory and the rules of our world, here, don't apply to the Makai.”
Koenma says, seriously, “Sailor Earth is right. You just can't rush off into the Makai. There are many powerful demons down there, especially in the pits of Demon World, namely the elite A-class and S-class demons. Even Sailor Moon, with her combined Valkyrie Sailor Scout and Yu-Zen powers, can't hold off whole armies of S-class level demons down forever. Like humans, even demons and half-demons have their limits of endurance and power.”
Kurama says, with a serious tone, “Yes. Plus, you don't know how the Demon World works. It is a far more complex place.”
Yusuke nods his head and says, “Take from a couple of Ma-zoku that know that all too well.”
Hikari says, plainly, “No joke, bro.”
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, “However, all of you are going to be needed to take on the Spirit World and remove King Emma from his throne.”
Sailor Pluto says, serious tone in her voice, “And that's not an easy task, I will tell you. The tyrant is very stubborn.”
Koenma says, seriously, “Of that, we can agree on, Sailor Pluto.”
Jaden asks, curiously, “But who will help guide you through the Demon World, so, that you won't run into more trouble.”
Just then a familiar child-like male voice calls out, “Who do you think?” Everyone then looks to see Chu, Rinku, and all of the other demon friends and allies that Yusuke and his Spirit Detective team made during Yusuke's time as a Spirit Detective.
Yusuke yells out, with a smile and surprised, “Hey! What are you guys doing here?!”
Jin says, in his barely audible voice, “What do you think?! We're here to give the little lass a tour through Demon World!”
Touya says, plainly, “What Jin is trying to say is that we're here to help the Moon Princess and her friends get through the Makai without much trouble and be their guides through it.”
Botan says, with a smile, “We contacted them on the way here. They promised to explain about Demon World as best as they can and help guide them through with as little trouble as possible.”
Rinku looks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon's face and says, with an amazed tone, “Wow! You were kidding! You are just like Yusuke and Kari!”
Chu says, with a nod, “And that demon energy . . . Wow! That's huge amount of power if I ever felt it!”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “Yes, which will present a problem.”
Sailor Mercury asks, curiously, “Why is that?”
Kurama says, with a serious tone, “Demons are attracted to fellow demons with incredible power! In the chaotic world of the Makai, you prove yourself powerful by battling powerful opponents and getting more powerful. Sailor Moon's new incredible levels of demon energy will attract other demons to you like flies to bug zapper.”
Sailor Jupiter says, with a serious tone, “And if those demons give us any trouble, they will end up exactly like flies when they hit the bug zapper.” Sailor Jupiter slams her fists together causing a small shockwave.
Sailor Pluto says, with a firm tone, “Well, we can't fight every single demon that attacks us. However, Sailor Moon can't suppress her demon aura because she is only use to using her Sailor Scout Celestial Energy and her Spiritual Energy, not Demon Energy.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “Yeah, I can't suppress it at all.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, plainly, “Plus, I'm curious: Ever since I revived my heart hasn't been beating at all, should I be worried?”
Sailor Venus yells out, shocked, “Huh?!”
Kurama says, with a smile, “Don't be worried. Demon hearts don't beat in the convention human sense, but they need to in order for a demon to be alive.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a sigh, “I'm never going to get use to this whole half-demon thing. What is my mom and dad going to think? Knowing Sammy, he'll think this very cool or he say something `I always knew that you were some kind of demon, Meatball Head' or something like that.”
Tuxedo Mask tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a caring smile, “Don't worry, Serena, we will find a way through this.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon whispers to Tuxedo Mask, worriedly, “I know, but what if . . . What if Rini is part-demon because of what I am right now? I'm worried about her. I don't want her . . .”
Tuxedo Mask tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a loving smile, “We'll get through this Serena and so will Rini. I don't think anything about Rini will be different because of this . . . new `situation'. You might be part-demon, but you are still the same odango I know and love as well as my princess and future queen.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Tuxedo Mask, lovingly, “Thank you.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon kisses Tuxedo Mask on the lips and Tuxedo Mask licks his lips after the kiss.
Tuxedo Mask says, with a teasing tone, “I have to say this, your kisses were like strawberries before, now, you taste like dark chocolate.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon giggles and she tells Tuxedo Mask, with a smile, “Oh, Darien . . .!”
Sailor Pluto says, with a serious tone, “Okay, everyone, I'm going to create the portal to the Makai. Stand back.” Everyone else in the room does so and then Sailor Pluto raises her staff into the air, and starts to chant out in some kind of ancient language of sorts. Soon enough, Sailor Pluto's Garnet Rod starts to glow and a gateway starts to form in front of them.
Everyone, expect for Hiei, gives an awe-inspired look and Mindy says, amazed, “Wow.”
Botan says, with a nod, “Sailor Pluto is really good.”
Koenma tells Botan, with a plain tone, “She has had millennia of experience, Botan. What did you expect?” After a minute or two more, the portal displays an area of Demon World for everyone to see.
Chu yells out, with a wide grin, “That's Demon World all right mates!”
Jin says, with a smile and his barely audible tone, “Ah! The sweet smell of home!”
Koenma tells the `team' going into the Makai, “Good luck, everyone. Yusuke, Kari, and the rest of us will take care of things in Spirit World.”
Jaden tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a smile, “And we'll hold down the fort, sis. Stay safe, Serena. I don't want to lose my twin sister after it took millennia for us to find each other again.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon smiles and replies, “Right, bro.”
Sailor Jupiter says, with a smile, “Later, everyone!”
Tyranno says, with a serious tone, “You had better plum be careful down there, ma'am! From what Private Urameshi and his twin sis told us, it isn't a place to fool around and you might be combat, real combat, a lot.”
Sailor Jupiter says, with a sly smile, “No sweat, Hassleberry! We'll be okay!”
Suzuki says, with a plain tone, “If everyone is done with the good-byes, we've got to get going since our public awaits us.”
Sailor Mars says, rolling her eyes, “Whatever.” Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Mini-Moon, the Sailor Quartet, our Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts, and Yusuke's and Hikari's six demon friends, Rinku, Chu, Touya, Jin, Shishiwakamaru, and Suzuki, go through the gateway into the Makai and the portal to the Demon World closes after all of them got through.
Botan says, with a worried tone, “I hope that they will be okay.”
Kuwabara says, with a serious tone, “With power like that Moon girl has now, I don't think that they have too much to worry about.”
Yusuke says, with a serious tone, “If she doesn't lose control of it, Kuwabara.”
Kurama says, with a serious and logical tone, “Yes. Sailor Moon isn't used to Demon Energy that she has mixed with her Sailor Scout and Spiritual energies and she only got them recently. Yusuke, you and Kari have experience using Demon Energy as well as mixing it with your Spiritual Energy as well.”
Hikari asks Kurama, curiously, “Are you say that Sailor Moon just might lose control and blow up a portion of Demon World or something?”
Kurama tells Hikari, shaking his head, “No, Kari. If Sailor Moon learns to use her Demon Energy with her Spirit and Sailor Scout energies, then she would become a powerful force to be dealt with. Actually, she could be one of the most powerful Sailor Soldiers in the universe, if not one of the most powerful beings in the universe as well.”
Hiei says, with a serious tone, “And that's most likely why King Emma sent his `goon squad' to kill the Moon Princess. To make sure that didn't happen and she didn't become a threat to his power and his rule.”
Botan says, amazed, “I just can't believe that his highness, King Emma, would help someone as evil as Beryl just because Queen Serenity wouldn't ally her kingdom and the Silver Alliance with him to further his own goals for more power.”
Koenma says, with a serious tone, “Well, that's how far my father has fallen and we must stop him before he does anything else that would harm the safety of the universe as well as pay for his crimes of abusing his power and causing the fall of one of the greatest civilizations to ever exist.”
Yusuke says, with a serious tone, “Yeah! It's about time that rotten jerk has gotten what's coming to him! I still owe him for his little attempt on me just because I was a Ma-zoku.”
Alexis says, with a serious tone, “We had better inform the others about what happened.”
Danielle says, with a nod, “That's a good idea, Alexis.”
Jasmine yells out, with a serious tone, “Well, what are we waiting for?!” Not needing any other words, we find the rest of our heroes and heroines heading out of the abandoned dorm back to the Slifer Red dorm to inform the rest of our heroes and heroines on what happened.
Sailor Earth thinks in her mind, seriously, “Good luck, my brother. I wish you and Serenity well.”
(A short time later; within the Makai)
Deep within Demon World, we find our heroes and heroines and their six demon `guides' standing on one of the cliffs in the Makai and overlooking the vast territory of the Demon Realm and our heroes and heroines are amazed by what they see.
Sailor Jupiter yells out, amazed, “Whoa! This place is huge!”
Sailor Pluto says, with a serious tone, “Yes. The Demon World is just as vast as or even vaster than the `human world' than we live in.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “However, you must tread with caution here. The rule of survival here is the rule of the stronger rule and weaker are ruled by the strong.”
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, “Namely, the law of the jungle back in our world: The stronger survive and the weak die.”
Suzuki says, with a serious tone, “Exactly, so, you had better watch yourself in our world because it is tough and full of demons. Some that fears you, some that don't care about you, and some that know you with those wanting to prove their power by tearing you to shreds.”
Sailor Uranus says, plainly, “That's comforting.”
Chu says, with a smile, “However, thanks to Urameshi and his friends, our current ruler's major rule is that there is no mischief allowed in human world by us, demons. So, the human world is safe . . . at least until the next Demon World tournament mates.”
Sailor Venus asks, seriously, “So, where should we start looking for clues?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon points to east of their current position and she says, seriously, “We go that way.”
Sailor Mars asks, curiously, “How can you be so sure, Serena?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, perplexed tone in her voice, “Wish I knew, Rei. Something inside tells me that my demon ancestor is in that direction and I'm really sure of it.”
Touya says, seriously, “I believe that Yusuke mentioned something like this. During his battle with Sensui, the rouge spirit detective, after he was reborn thanks to his dormant demon blood, he told us that he felt that he knew places in Demon World even through he hasn't been there before. Sensui commented on that himself. Kurama believed to be some kind of what you humans call `genetic memory'.”
Sailor Mercury asks, curiously, “Memories and experience put into your very DNA and passed down to your descendants?”
Suzuki says, with a nod, “That's what Kurama believes.”
Sailor Neptune says, with a serious tone, “So, Serena's demon blood might contain memories and experience of this world left by her Earth demon ancestor when the gene passed on to her.”
Sailor Pluto says, with a serious tone, “This might be our best lead so far.”
Jin exclaims, excitedly and in his barely audible tone, “So, what are waiting for everyone?! Let's get wiggle with it!”
Sailor Venus asks, curiously, “Translation?”
Touya replies, with a plain tone, “Jin means that we should get going.”
Sailor Mercury asks, seriously, “Hold up! You can't fly like the rest of us?”
Rinku says, with a smile, “Jin doesn't need wings like you, remember? He has the power of wind on his side.” Jin then uses his wind power to fly through the air.
Sailor Jupiter says, plainly, “Yeah, but what about the rest of you, you can't do that!”
Chu says, with a sly grin, “Don't worry about us, ma'am! All of us are A-level demons!”
Shishiwakamaru says, with a sly smile, “All of us can make keep up with the rest of you on the ground with ease.”
Sailor Venus says, with a shrug, “Okay, if you say so.”
Sailor Saturn asks, nervously, “What about Darien-ken? He can't fly and he doesn't have the power to keep up like the rest of us.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon takes out a beautiful crystal blue whistle with her golden crescent moon on it and she says, with a sly smile, “Don't worry, Firefly. I've got that problem covered. You and the others better cover your ears.” When everyone does so, Valkyrie Sailor Moon blows into the whistle as hard as she could, creating a loud whistle sound that echoes over the area, and when she stops blow, Valkyrie Sailor Moon takes a breath, a portal opens up in the sky, and Valkyrie Sailor Moon's `Battle Pegasus', Selena, flies over to them.
Jin yells out, amazed, “That's just wiggle!”
Rinku calls out, stunned, “Oh, wow! A flying horse!”
Chu tells Rinku, with a nod, “And one that looks ready for battle, I recon.”
Selena goes over to Valkyrie Sailor Moon and asks, perplexed, “My princess, what happened to your face? And you are producing demonic energy along with your usual energies?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon pets Selena and her mane and she tells her, with a smile, “It is a long story, Selena. However, I need your help. Could you please carry Tuxedo Mask on your back? We need to get somewhere here in Demon World.”
Selena looks around and she says, amazed, “So, this is the world of the Makai. It is not what I expected, but the aura of demons is everywhere.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “Which might be coming since anyone could have heard that whistle of Sailor Moon's.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, nervously, “Oops.”
Sailor Mars says, seriously and annoyed, “Oops is right, Meatball Head. Now, let's get going before we are trampled by demons that want to build a reputation by trying to kick our asses around.”
Sailor Jupiter says, plainly, “Did you have to say it that way, Mars? Geez!” Tuxedo Mask gets onto Selena's back and our Sailor Scouts as well as Jin take the air with Selena while the other five demons keep up by bounding from tree tops and ledges as they vent into the Demon World in order to find the whereabouts of Serena's Earth demon ancestor.
(Sometime later; back in the Human World AKA the Slifer Red dorm)
In front of the Slifer Red dorm, we find Jaden, Alexis, Jasmine, Mindy, Danielle, Shala, Inuyasha, Kagome, their Feudal friends, Tyranno, Syrus, Chazz, Atticus, Blair, Zane, Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Yukina, Botan, Koenma, Alinna, and Yeshua along with Luna and Atriums assembled together as Jaden, Alexis, Jasmine, Mindy, Danielle, Shala, Inuyasha, Kagome, Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Botan, and Koenma explained what happened to everyone else.
When they were done, Syrus yells out, stunned, “Wait! Sailor Moon is actually part-demon like Yusuke and Kari?!”
Kagome says, amazed, “We're just as surprised as you are Syi.”
Jaden says, nodding his head, “Especially when sis got new claws, demonic markings on her face, and her hair went even darker than before.”
Kuwabara says, a bit nervously, “And sporting a new demonic attitude when she ripped people apart.”
Yusuke yells at Kuwabara, seriously, “Hey, Kuwabara, that wasn't her! That her demon ancestor using her body like a puppet when her demon ancestor possessed her!”
Atticus asks Alexis, curiously, “Now, Serena and her friends have gone into the world of the demons to find her demon ancestor?”
Alexis nods her head and says, “Yep! She wants to find out more about these `Yu-Zen' and why her Earth demon ancestor possessed her like that.”
Kurama says, with a logical tone, “Plus, she might want to find out more about her past life and the Silver Millennium since it seems like her demon ancestor knows plenty of it.”
Chazz says, with his usual snobbish tone, “But it looks like the Moon Princess got herself some new enemies as well.”
Koenma says, seriously, “Yes, Chazz. My father had the Spirit Defense Force try to destroy her body before her demon blood could revive her, but they had failed thankfully and now, I learn that it was my father that helped the Negaverse destroys the Silver Millennium in the first place.”
Hikari says, with a serious tone, “And we're going up there to help Koenma make his father get off his high and mighty throne and pay for his crimes!”
Keiko says, with a plain tone, “However, while we are gone along with Serena and the others in Demon World, we're going to need someone to take care of those Society Dorks while we are away.”
Kagome then says, “That's where the rest of us come in.”
Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “I can live with that.”
Hikari asks Zane, curiously, “Are you sure that you can handle those dweebs by yourself while we're gone?!”
Zane replies, with a dark sick smile and dark plain tone, “All of those dorks won't know what hit them until they are eating dirt like the losers that they are, Kari.”
Jasmine says, with a dark sly smile, “Don't worry, girlfriend, those dorks are toast!”
Mindy says, with a dark sly grin on her lips, “They'll be begging for mercy before we're done with them!”
Alexis says, with a dark sly grin, “Well, it looks like you, girls, have got the incentive!”
Hikari tells Zane, with a dark sly grin, “We'll see you soon Zane.”
Zane replies, with a dark sly grin and dark sly tone, “I'm looking forward to it, Kari.” Hikari gives a slight blush as Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Botan, and Koenma walked off into the distance to prepare for their trip into Spirit World. However, what they didn't know is that a familiar figure is watching from a distance and when we get a closer look at that figure, we find that it is none other than Yami Marik.
Yami Marik says, with a low tone and a sick smile on his lips, “So, the Moon Princess has left her brother alone while she has gone off on a fool's errand to find her demon ancestor. I think that it is quite ironic that the demon fighting Sailor Moon turned out to be a demon herself!” Yami Marik says, with a dark plain tone, “However, whatever those fools are doing don't concern me! What concerns me is that son of the Moon Queen, the Millennium Puzzle, the three God Cards, and the Millennium Puzzle. When I get them, the ultimate power of the Pharaoh will be mine. As the successor to Atem, he is the inheritor of the Pharaoh's great power as next in line for the throne of Egypt, but I will make sure that I am king!” Just then Yami Marik takes out three cards that give off pitch black auras and he says, with a evil sly grin, “And with these cards, I will get what I want from little Jaden Yuki! He might have mastered and weld the power of the three gods, Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra, but they are not enough against these cards! The dark opposites of the three Egyptian God Monsters and just as powerful in every way! The Legendary Wicked God cards! It took me a while to find them, but now, with their power in my hands, the power of the Pharaoh and the world will be mine! And once I eliminated the rest of Prince Judai's family as well as the heirs to the Sun and Galaxy kingdoms, the whole universe shall be under my rule for all time! The Sacred Beasts, the Egyptian Gods, and the Wicked Gods shall serve and protect me as I rule this universe as the Supreme Pharaoh of all!” Yami Marik then gives an evil laugh that would send chills down any regular person's spine and scare them stiff.
(Within King Emma's throne room; Sometime later)
Within the throne room of King Emma, we find the still badly injured Captain Ootaki in front of the titan ruler of the Spirit World, King Emma, as he finishes his report.
King Emma tells Captain Ootaki, with a plain tone, “You have failed me, Ootaki. Now, the Yu-Zen Sailor Moon has gained powers beyond our abilities to control.”
Captain Ootaki says, with a solemn tone, “I'm sorry, sir. Urameshi and his sister as well as Princess Serenity's brother got in our way and delayed us long enough to allow her to revive as the Yu-Zen. I know that's no excuse . . .”
King Emma tells Captain Ootaki, interrupting him, “It doesn't matter now. I'm not surprised about that Urameshi child and his sister. They might be demons, but they are all too human, which is why they were far more dangerous with demon powers that other full-blooded demons! And now, my son plans to get their aid and their power to de-throne me.”
Captain Ootaki yells out, shocked, “No! Prince Koenma can't do that!”
King Emma replies, with a plain tone, “He can and he will, Captain. My observers already tell me this and by now, they have already arrived in Spirit World. And the Spirit Defense Forces, thanks to the Yu-Zen Sailor Moon, are in no condition to battle the two Ma-zoku demons. And since the Urameshi twins are the reincarnations of the son and eldest daughter, the Galaxy Princess, of King Apollo and Queen Sol, they have political power to allow my son to take the throne from me. I never thought that it could come to this . . .”
Captain Ootaki asks King Emma, “Your majesty, what should we do?”
King Emma tells Captain Ootaki, with a plain tone, “Prepare for battle, captain. Send any members of your forces that can for a battle against the Urameshi twins and all that my son has assembled against me. However, with the level of power that they have, you will take a defense position and they will have to attack you. This will give you the best chance to win.”
Captain Ootaki bows his head and says, solemnly, “As you wish, sir.”
King Emma tells Captain Ootaki, in a plain and commanding tone, “Leave now.” Captain Ootaki does so and King Emma thinks in his mind, “Siding with demons instead of your own father, my son? Once again, you have proven to be your own man, but once again, you are still too moralist for your own good! But so far, you have created powerful teams that rival the powers of my best troops and powerful alliance as well. I wish that there was no possibility for this, but could it possible for my own son to topple me with the help of half-demons? Is that prophecy that I was told millennia ago finally coming to pass? Could this be the curse of Selene herself? I can't help to wonder and look back at myself over the years. I don't wish it to be so, but it might be that my reign is finally coming to an end . . . at the hands of my son and a half-demon . . .”
(On the meanwhile; Back in the Makai)
Returning to Demon World, we find our heroes and heroines flying through the air with Tuxedo Mask on Selena's back and Jin using his wind powers to fly through the air. The five other demon friends of Yusuke and Hikari are easily following through the tree tops in quick fashion. Along the way, they had to fight off several hordes of demons that sensed Valkyrie Sailor Moon's new demon aura, but they were low D class to mid C class demons at best, so, they were no problem for our heroes and heroines along with their demon guides.
Sailor Jupiter says, plainly, “It seems like we've been traveling for a while.”
Sailor Mars asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Meatball Head, are you sure you know where we are going?!”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head and replies, a bit nervously, “Yep! I think . . .”
Sailor Mars replies, in her usual manner, “That's reassuring.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, with an annoyed tone, “Hey, how do you think that I feel about this?!”
Sailor Mini-Moon tells her half-demon future mother and Sailor Mars, “Come on, you, two, we don't have time for this!”
Sailor Venus yells out, “Mini-Moon is right! We need to stop arguing and keep going! We need to find Serena's demon ancestor and fast!”
Just then Sailor Mercury spots a high flat plateau and she calls out, “That high plateau might allow us to see something!”
Sailor Neptune tells Sailor Mercury, “Good idea, Mercury! Let's go!” Valkyrie Sailor Moon motions for Jin to inform his fellow demons about this idea and he nods as he goes down and tells them, pointing to the rock plateau. Soon enough, our group reassembled on the top of the plateau while Sailor Mercury begins her scan of the area.
Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “Any changes on me?”
Sailor Uranus shakes her head and says, “No. You still have their weird marks on you and those claws of yours.”
Sailor Pluto tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a plain tone, “Based on memories of Yusuke Urameshi when he was transformed by the possession of his demon ancestor, it took around a day or so for the markings to vanish.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, drolly, “That's just great.”
Sailor Uranus says, with a serious tone, “How are we going to find this demon ancestor of hers? We heard it for ourselves. Those Yu-Zen or whatever are demons that have supposed vanished years ago.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “Disappeared, but not necessary gone. There are those demon cultures and kinds that have gone into hiding and have not been seen for many years until a `demon explorer' finds them, through them getting out alive is hard to say.”
Sailor Jupiter says, drolly, “That's encouraging.”
Sailor Mercury says, her visor across her face, “My scanner is picking up something! A large amount of demon energy coming on . . . something . . . and heading our way.”
Sailor Saturn asks Sailor Mercury, curiously, “Where, Mercury-chan?”
Sailor Mercury points ahead of her and says in reply, “Over there, Saturn.” When everyone looks to the source of the voice, they see major rustling in the distance and after a while, they manage to see what looks like a bug that's the size of good sized modern day skyscraper coming towards them.
Sailor Venus asks, grossed out, “Yuck! Is that some kind of overgrown cockroach or something?” Sailor Pluto winches in slight fear from Venus' remark.
Sailor Mars whispers to Sailor Venus, annoyed, “Watch it, Venus! You know how Trista is with roaches!”
Sailor Venus blushes in embarrassment and replies, after giving a raspberry with her tongue, “Oops. My bad.”
Chu says, with a serious tone, “That looks familiar mates.”
Rinku asks, curiously, “Is that Mukuro's mobile base?”
Everyone looks at Rinku and the other demons and Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks Rinku, “Wait a minute! Yusuke mention this to us when he told me and then the others about his days as a Spirit Detective. Isn't she one of the three demons that use to rule Demon World before the Demon World Tournament?”
Suzuki nods his head and replies, seriously, “Yes. Mukuro, one of the former rulers of our realm. I've managed to get the full story after the Demon World tournament and it is not pretty. Mukuro was a beautiful young person, even by your standards, but she was born a slave and abused in every single way, including by her own father. Unable to take it anymore, she poured acid on her body to damage it to make sure she wasn't beautiful anymore. She was imprisoned in chains until she got out. Then she gained power and became one of the three rulers of Demon World. She took the identity of a man that she kept until the start of the Demon World tournament. She was full of hatred and rage until Hiei freed her by getting rid of the shackles that she could have never gotten off! She could have won the Demon World tournament because her hate, anger, and rage gave her great power, but ever since Hiei allowed Mukuro to finally move on with her life, her power was reduced and she lost in the end. Now, she leads former tournament members as part of our current king's `search party' for any humans that fall into demon world and bring them back.”
Sailor Saturn says, solemnly, “Damaging her own body to stop getting hurt? That's so sad.”
Touya says, seriously, “Demon World is a harsh now and it was a harsh place then.”
Jin asks, in his usual barely audible tone, “But what is she doing here I reckon?”
Rinku says, able to understand Jin, “I think that her soldiers have sensed the human auras from the Sailor Scouts and possibly the huge demon aura that Sailor Moon is giving off now.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “That's not good if we have to fight them. These aren't those lower class demons that we fought earlier. These are elite A to S class demons and not pushovers. Sailor Moon, here, with her combined spirit, demon, and Valkyrie Sailor Scout powers is the only who can beat S class demons.”
Sailor Mars says, drolly, “Just great.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, nodding her head, “No joke, Mars. I don't think I can fight a whole army of elite warrior demons.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “I don't think we have to fight at all. Mukuro is many things, but she is an honorable warrior and demon at times. She isn't without emotion. Plus, I think that she might be able to help us. As a former ruler of Demon World, she might know things about the Yu-Zen that we don't.”
Suzuki says, plainly, “Sounds risky doesn't it?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “It might be the only lead that we've got.”
Touya says, seriously, “Plus, there are plenty of demons that take the Sailor Scouts quite seriously through how Mukuro and the others will take you are something that's left to question.”
Sailor Mini-Moon says, concerned tone, “However, she might be the best lead to find Serena's Yu-Zen ancestor.”
Sailor Uranus says, with a plain tone, “However, Suzuki has a good point, even I have to admit. Even I feel that it is too risky to trust an ex-lord of this place.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious and determined tone, “Personally, I would agree . . . if this two years ago when I was starting, but now . . .” Valkyrie Sailor Moon then quickly takes the air and flies towards Mukuro's approaching mobile fortress.
Sailor Mars yells out, shocked, “Serena!”
Sailor Neptune says, with a sly smile and slightly amazed tone, “Well, our princess has become plenty more assertive these days.”
Touya says, while nodding his head, “Yes. She has become quite telling at what she wants and needs and does it.”
Sailor Pluto says, with a serious tone, “Even through I worry about our princess a lot, I can say that she has become a stronger person.”
Sailor Juno says, with a serious tone, “In more ways than one, through I think she would do with the `demon look' that's she sporting.”
Sailor Pallas says, with a nod in her child-like voice, “Sailor Pallas agrees with you, Juno! It makes her seem a bit scary!”
Sailor Vesta calls out, with a serious tone, “The looks I can agree with, but I don't think that this is too bad for her! I mean, she can kick butt whenever she wants.”
Sailor Ceres says, with a plain tone, “Well, Vesta, if you had forgotten, Sailor Moon, no matter how strong she is, is still a kind and gentle person deep inside and doesn't like violence. Plus, she isn't exactly in control of her powers and she might have destructive powers as strong as Saturn even stronger. She can't exactly go flaunting her powers like that and the only reason that she was in control before because her demon ancestor was controlling her.”
Sailor Vesta says, with a nervous tone, “Oh, right.”
Sailor Jupiter says, with a serious tone, “We had better follow her before we lose her.” Not needing another word to be said, our heroes and heroines along with their six demon guides follow Valkyrie Sailor Moon in their own fashion towards Mukuro's moving headquarters.
A while soon after, we find Kiri, one of Mukuro's loyal servants, on top of the mobile fortress with the driver as he sniffs into the air and Kiri asks, plainly, “What do you smell?”
The mobile fortress driver says, “Humans and a lot of them. Plus, there are six . . . no, seven demons. And there is one powerful demon . . . no, this demon also has human on her.”
Kiri asks, plainly, “A female half-demon? Is it Yusuke Urameshi's sister?”
The mobile fortress driver shakes his head and replies, “No. But this half-demon is very powerful . . . I never smelled anything like it and she is coming this way.”
Kiri gasps and exclaims, in a serious tone, “Where?!”
The mobile fortress looks to his left and up, points up to the sky, and exclaims, “There!” Kiri looks to where the mobile fortress driver was pointing and gasps to see Valkyrie Sailor Moon floating down in front of them, but because of her helmet, the two demons can't see the Yu-Zen markings all over her face.
Kiri yells out, with a deadly serious tone, “Who the hell are you?!”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, with a serious tone, “I am Sailor Moon of the Human World.”
Kiri calls out, stunned, “Sailor Moon?! You mean the reincarnation of the Moon Princess, who is the daughter of Queen Serenity of the Moon Kingdom?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a sly grin, “I see that you've heard of me.”
The mobile fortress sniffs Valkyrie Sailor Moon and he says, amazed, “That strange. She smells like a half-demon.”
Kiri states, perplexed, “What?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a plain and serious tone, “Maybe this will explain everything.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon removes her helmet and Kiri gasps to see the demonic markings on Valkyrie Sailor Moon's face.
Kiri yells out, stunned, “Those markings! They are demon markings!”
Just then a familiar female voice calls out, in a plain tone, “That's because they are demon markings, Kiri.” Kiri and Valkyrie Sailor Moon turn to the source of the voice to see Mukuro walking up to all of them.
Kiri tells Mukuro, in a serious tone, “My lord, you shouldn't be . . .!”
Mukuro holds up her right hand to stop Kiri from talking and she says, “It is all right, Kiri. I sensed her large demon energy before you even saw her. And I believe that she isn't here for a fight. Even for the famous Sailor Moon of the Human World, that would be foolish.” Mukuro looks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon, eye to eye, and she says, plainly, “I believe that her new demonic markings and demon energy is why she is here.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a diplomatic tone, “Yes, I am. I heard that you were one of the three former rulers of Demon World. Your name is Mukuro.”
Mukuro replies, quirking an eyebrow, “Yes, you are correct. How did you come to know of me?” Soon after, the rest of our heroes and heroines arrive with the demons landing on Mukuro's mobile fortress. Mukuro nods her head and says, with a sly smile, “Ah, yes. I see. The friends of Yusuke and Hikari Urameshi, the descendant of Raizen.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “I'm good friends with Yusuke Urameshi. He, his friends, and family are helping me battle a powerful energy that threatens all worlds, including your own.”
Kiri says, with a not convinced tone, “Nonsense! What power could be strong enough to threaten us?!”
Touya replies, with a plain tone, “The Light of Destruction.” Kiri and the driver of Mukuro's mobile fort gasp in shock and Mukuro's eyes widen a bit.
Mukuro asks, curiously, “The Light of Destruction actually exists?”
Suzuki replies, with a plain tone, “Believe what you want to wish, Lord Mukuro, but the Light of Destruction does exist. We sensed its evil powers ourselves.”
Mukuro says, with a plain tone, “Please, there is no need for `Lord Mukuro', for now, since my days of ruling Demon World are over for the moment.” Mukuro takes a deep breath and says, seriously, “However, I was wondering what that mysterious incredible powers from the Human World were. Days ago, I sensed a great battle of positive and negative powers in the Human World from even where I was in my fortress. I sensed a huge negative unlike anything that I sensed before from the Human World and then multiple incredible positive energy forces that are in conflict with that negative power. I could sense the balance of life going back off and soon enough, the powers vanished. During that battle, I could sense two familiar powers. Namely Yusuke Urameshi and his sister, Hikari Urameshi. From what I can tell, the negative force was the infamous Light of Destruction that we demons tell our little ones about to make sure that they behave and you, Yusuke Urameshi, and Hikari Urameshi along with two others battled the Light of Destruction. Most likely to a standstill because your powers `vanished' at the same time and right now, I can still sense that evil power in the Human World.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, amazed, “Well, I've got to say that you are right on the money. That's very amazing.”
Mukuro says, with a sly smile, “My dear, you do not get to be ruler of the Demon World on power alone.” Mukuro then says, with a serious tone, “However, I can tell that's not why you are here. It is about your new demon energy and demon heritage that I now sense from you.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head and replies, “Yes. I can't give you all of the details, but what I can tell you is that in this life, I have been reincarnated as human on Earth . . .”
Mukuro tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, interrupting her, “No need to tell me more, your majesty. Plainly, your new `Earth family' had a demon ancestor like Yusuke and Hikari Urameshi are descendant of the Ma-zoku and through the same process that Yusuke and Hikari gained their demon blood, it is how you gained yours.”
Touya nods his head and he says, “Yes, L-I mean Mukuro. That's how Sailor Moon became a half-demon and now, she is on a quest to look for her demon ancestor.”
Mukuro asks, curiously, “She took possession of you when your demon blood awoke after you are killed, correct?”
Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, nervously, “How? How did you know that?”
Mukuro says, with a sly smile, “A demon woman's intention my dear.” Mukuro asks, curiously, “Now, who is your demon ancestor from your Earth blood, Princess Serenity?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, plainly, “Actually, it is supposed to be a demon clan that has supposedly disappeared. The Yu-Zen.”
Mukuro's eyes widen at Valkyrie Sailor Moon's admission and Kiri yells out, seriously, “That's impossible! The Yu-Zen vanished from our world centuries ago! It can't be possible!”
Mukuro tells Kiri, with a serious tone, “Highly unlikely, but not impossible, Kiri.” Mukuro says, with a serious tone, “This is pretty ironic that you are reborn as a Yu-Zen, your majesty.”
Sailor Venus asks, curiously, “Why is that?”
Mukuro says, with a serious tone, “Because, Princess of Venus, your princess' mother had her life saved by a Yu-Zen those millennia ago!” Everyone expect Sailor Pluto gasp in shock and surprise.
Sailor Neptune yells out, stunned, “Queen Serenity's life was saved by a demon?!”
Mukuro looks at Sailor Pluto and she asks her, seriously, “Time Guardian, you knew this, did you not?”
Our heroes and heroines look at Sailor Pluto and Sailor Mini-Moon asks Sailor Pluto, “Pluto, is this true? Was Sailor Moon's mommy saved by a demon?”
Sailor Pluto nods her head and says, nodding her head, “Yes, she was. You see, when she was young, Queen Serenity was on a diplomatic mission to Earth when a youma attacked her from behind and tried to kill her. But a Yu-Zen destroyed the youma, saved Queen Serenity's life, and actually restored her back to health. When her majesty asked why, the Yu-Zen told her that she was attacked in a coward's manner and someone like her doesn't deserve to die in that fashion by scum like that youma. The Yu-Zen has a very strict honor code and even through they are ruthless warriors, they follow this warrior code to the letter. It is much like the Knight's code of Europe and the Samurai's code of Japan. The Yu-Zen returned Queen Serenity back home, however, the Queen wished to repay the Yu-Zen for saving her, but the Yu-Zen honestly refused. However, soon enough, the Yu-Zen and Queen Serenity developed a friendship. One that lasted until Queen Serenity died in the battle with Beryl and the Negaverse at the end of the Silver Millennium. I believe that the Yu-Zen somehow built a memorial to her.”
Mukuro says, with a plain tone, “Or so the rumors say. The Yu-Zen hasn't been seen for millennia, but it is known that they are mortal enemies of the Light of Destruction and hate all those that have the `stink' of that evil force. Plus, they are worshipers of the Darkness of Salvation, the dark positive force that's the enemy of the Light of Destruction.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “We know. My friends and I are infused with the Darkness of Salvation's power.”
Mukuro nods her head and says, plainly, “I see. I could sense a mysterious dark power that does not `stink' of negative power in you and the others.” Mukuro asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, curiously, “Why do you seek your demon ancestor?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, plainly, “She took over my body and tried to kill members of the Spirit Defense Forces with my body.”
Mukuro asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a curious tone, “You do know that King Emma aided the Negaverse in destroying your home, Princess Serenity?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Mukuro, with a serious tone, “I do now. But it doesn't make it right for my ancestor to do what she did to me and what she tried to use my power for.”
Mukuro asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, seriously, “You will confront her and if she tries to use your body again . . .?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, with a serious tone, “I don't want to do anything too `extreme', but I will do what it takes to prevent that from happening again. Even it means beating my ancestor down.”
Mukuro tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a serious tone, “Then you will have quite a task ahead of you, Sailor Moon. The Yu-Zen rivals the Ma-zoku in power, but they have powerful mystical and super-natural abilities that the Ma-zoku don't have. They are not demons that you can defeat easily. They are elite S-classes like myself and even with your own demon energies mixed in with your spiritual and Celestial energies, your demon ancestor will not bend to your will so easily, descendant or not.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, with a serious tone, “Well, I can be quite `persuasive' myself and I've developed into quite a strong person.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks Mukuro, curiously, “As a former ruler of Demon World, I heard that you might know something about the Yu-Zen? May I ask for your help?”
Mukuro replies, with a serious tone, “Well, I have heard many rumors, however, the only place that you might have luck in finding are areas of Demon World that even I don't dare venture into. You see, your majesty, Demon World is just as vast or even vaster than the Human World and a far more chaotic place because power is the term for this world. To survive, you must be strong and powerful, through I doubt that's a problem for you and your guardians. However, there are some place that the majority of demons, including myself, Yomi, and Raizen, do not venture into and where the laws of the government or governments of Demon World do not apply. So, do not expect the venture into those territories with ease.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “We understand.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “May I ask do you know the location of the land?”
Mukuro tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a sly smile, “Actually, I have a better idea. How about I show you where they are?”
Kiri gasps in shock and exclaims, seriously, “My lord, you don't expect . . .!” However, Mukuro gives Kiri a very serious look that tells him to shut up.
Mukuro replies, seriously, “They are not enemies wishing for battle and right now, we are no longer wishing to force quarrels with the Human World, which is fine by me. Plus, we are not allying ourselves with them. They have requested for aid and I've decided to aid them.”
Kiri says, with a sigh, “Yes, my lord.”
Mukuro says, with a serious tone, “Follow us and please keep up. We are not waiting for any stragglers.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head as Mukuro directly the driver of her mobile fortress and her mobile fortress heads in the direction of these `unknown lands' in the Makai while our heroes and heroines and their demon `guides' follow her.
Sailor Mars whispers to Valkyrie Sailor Moon, serious tone in her voice, “Do you think that we can trust her?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, with a nod, “I feel like that we can and plus, I sense that we are going the right way.”
Sailor Jupiter says, with a sigh, “I hope that you know what you are doing, Sailor Moon.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, mentally, “You and me both, Lita.” As Mukuro's fortress continues in the direction for the `unknown lands' in the Makai, our heroes and heroines along with their demon guides continue on and wondering what they are going as well as what to expect when they get there.
(Returning to the Human World; Sometime later)
Back in the human world, we find Jaden, Alexis, Chazz, Jasmine, Mindy, Syrus, Tyranno, Danielle, Shala, Alinna, Yeshua, Atticus, Blair, Zane, Inuyasha, and Kagome's and Inuyasha's Feudal friends, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo along with Kirara assembled together as everyone as Kagome takes on another female SOL member. In this Shadow Duel, both duelists are shackled to the ground as two dark clouds hang above their heads and every time that a duelist loses life-points, they get shocked. During this duel, we find Kagome with 3000 life-points, three monsters in attack mode, Luster Dragon #2 (2400/1500), Tri-Horned Dragon (2850/2400), and Red-Eyes Black Dragon (2400/2000), an activate Dragon's Rage Continuous trap card, two face-down cards, and three cards in her hand while her opponent, the female SOL member, has barely 1400 life-points, three monsters in defense mode, Harpie's Pet Dragon (2000/2500), Unfriendly Amazon (2000/1600), and Wingweaver (2750/2400), an activate Gravity Bind Continuous Trap card and an activate Zero Type Magic Crusher trap card, one face-down card, and two cards in her hand. However, it is Kagome's turn and Kagome draws one card from her deck.
Kagome yells out, with a dark serious tone, “You are going down, dork!”
The female SOL member replies, with a cold serious tone, “Just try it, nonbeliever!”
Kagome says, with a dark sly tone, “You're funeral, geek!” Kagome puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play my Inferno Fire Blast spell card! Since Red-Eyes is on the field, I get to take over two thousand life-points from your score! Oh, well! Game over!”
The female SOL member yells out, while pushing a button on her duel disk, “Don't count on it, dork! I play my trap! Curse of the Forbidden Spell!” The face-down card is revealed to the Curse of the Forbidden Spell trap card, the female SOL member discards her Monster Reincarnation spell card to the graveyard, and calls out, coldly, “By discarding one spell card from my hand, I can negate and destroy your pathetic spell card! Plus, you can't use that same card for the rest of the duel!” The female SOL member says, with a cold sly grin, “And since you are trapped by my Gravity Bind, you can't get to my life-points! Too bad! I knew that you couldn't escape `destiny' forever!”
Kagome yells out, with a dark annoyed tone, “You know if I hear that word one more time for you, I'm really tempted to use you as my personal punching bag!” Kagome pushes a button on her duel disk and yells out, darkly, “Now, I play my face-down card! Remove Trap!” Kagome's face-down card is revealed to be the Remove Trap spell card and she calls out, with a dark sly smile, “Sorry, dweeb, but my spell card removes one trap card on the field and guess what has to go?!”
The female SOL member yells out, stunned, “Oh no!” Soon after, her Gravity Bind trap card is destroyed.
Kagome then puts another card in the spell/trap slots and she yells out, darkly, “Next, I play my Dragon's Mirror spell card! This card allows me to play one Dragon-type fusion monster from my graveyard as long as I removed the fusion material monsters from the field and in the graveyard!” Kagome then calls out, with a dark sly grin, “So, I will remove the three Blue-Eyes White Dragons in my graveyard to summon one of my most powerful monsters!” Just then three Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000/2500 X 3) monster cards from her graveyard, puts them in her pocket, puts a fusion monster card from her fusion deck on her duel disk, three Blue-Eyes White Dragons appear on the field, and they go into a fusion vortex.
The female SOL member thinks in her mind, drolly, “Oh, great.”
Kagome yells out, in a dark strong tone, “Meet Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!” Out of the fusion vortex, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon (4500/3800) comes to the field in attack mode. Kagome tells the female SOL member, with a dark sly grin, “And thanks to my Dragon's Rage trap card, when my dragon attacks your monsters in defense mode, the difference from my monster's attack points and your peon's defense points will come out of your life-points!”
The female SOL member shouts out, horrified, “No, this can't be!”
Kagome shouts out, with a dark serious tone, “It can and it will! Ultimate Dragon, take out this dork's pathetic Amazon with Neutron Blast!” Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragons fires a powerful beam of electrical energy from its three heads and it slams into Unfriendly Amazon causing the female SOL member to scream out in extreme as she is shocked from head to toe as she loses 2900 life-points, thanks to Kagome's trap card, and ending the duel immediately.
Final Score:
Kagome: 3000
Female SOL member: 0
With the end of the duel, Kagome and the former female SOL member are released from the shackles as the dueling holograms and dark clouds fade away. The former female SOL falls to the ground on her stomach and into unconsciousness with the duels end.
Jaden tells Kagome, with a dark sly grin, “Nice one, Kagome!”
Mindy says, with a dark smile on her lips, “You sent that dweeb packing!”
Kagome says, with a smile on her lips, “Thanks, everyone!”
Bastion says, with a dark logical tone, “That's another ten more Society Dorks out of Sartorius' vile cult already. We've just regained around slightly one-half of the student body.”
Atticus says, with a dark sly smile on his lips, “Excellent, dudes! Now, we've got the controlling majority in this school!”
Jasmine says, with a dark serious tone, “Hopefully, by the time Serena and the others get back, we will have plenty more of these dweebs out of our hair!”
Alinna says, with a serious tone, “Don't forget that we still have Queen Beryl and her minions to deal with? Not to the mention the other enemies of Princess Serenity and the Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts' old enemies to deal.”
Mindy says, with a plain tone, “Do you always have to spoil a good mood, Alinna?”
Alinna says, with a sly grin, “Hey, I tell it like it is.”
Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, we haven't heard a thing from Beryl and her losers from the Negaverse after Sailor Moon went demon and trashed them.”
Chazz says, with a serious tone, “Last time, I checked with you, Slacker, your half-demon sister `disarmed' her old enemy.”
Alexis tells Chazz, drolly, “Did you have to say that way, Chazz?”
Jaden says, with a serious tone, “I know how you feel, Alexis. Hopefully, Serena will be to get her `problem' with her `demon ancestor' settled so we won't have to see something like that again.”
Zane replies, with a dark plain tone, “In war, Jaden, you will have to expect that! Unlike that alien freak, Queen Beryl and her loser squad then to use more physical force. A fact that your sister knows all too well since she fought her before and I've got to say, she knows that force is the only way to deal with force!”
Tyranno tells Jaden, “I hate to admit it, Sarge, but Zane has a point.”
Jaden says, with a plain tone, “I know, Hassleberry. But personally, my sister prefers to use force under her control.”
Syrus says, trying to change the subject, “Anyway, let's continue our work and getting those Society Dorks out of the island.”
Alexis says, with a dark serious tone, “Good idea, Syi. The less Society Dorks that I see, the better.”
Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Jaden!” Everyone looks to the source to see Atem, Jaden, and their friends, Tea, Tristan, and Joey, running towards them.
Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Hey, Yugi-semapi, what are you, Atem, Tea-semapi, Tristan-sempai, and Joey-sempai doing around here?”
Tea says, with a serious tone, “We've got some more trouble.”
Joey says, with a serious tone, “We've had some sights of Marik's dark side on the island with his Rare Hunters, like Arcana and Strings.”
Jaden, Kagome, and their friends, minus Shippo, Sango, and Miroku, gasp in shock and Chazz yells out, stunned, “When did your old enemies get here?!”
Jasmine yells out, stunned, “And didn't Jaden take Marik's evil side out in that Shadow Duel when he used the Sacred Beasts and Jaden uses the Creator of Light to take him out?”
Atem says, seriously, “Yes, he did! However, I sensed something was different with Marik's dark side. You have to remember, the balance of light and darkness is still imbalance, so, there is a chance that even through you sent Marik's dark side back to the shadows, he can come back.”
Kagome says, drolly, “So, we could get a recurring nightmare of past villains until the balance of life is restored. Just great.”
Alexis says, with a serious tone, “Well, there is nothing to do about it expect to get Marik's dark side.”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Sweet! Time for a rematch!”
Syrus tells Jaden, with a worried tone, “Jay, aren't you worried? He wants the Egyptian God Cards and the Millennium Puzzles that you hold. He isn't going to play a simple game and your life will be in danger.”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Don't worry, Syi. I do best under pressure.”
Alexis thinks in her mind, worriedly, “I really hope you know what you are doing, Jaden.”
Inuyasha yells out, with a serious tone, “Well, what are waiting for?! Are we going to find this jerk or not?!” Without another word needing to be said, our heroes and heroines, joined by Yugi, Atem, and their friends, head off to find Yami Marik and his `crew' and stop whatever plans that they have.
(On the meanwhile; within the realm of the Spirit World)
Around this same time, within the Spirit World, we find Solar Sun, Sailor Galaxy, Sailor Universe, Hiei, Kurama, Kuwabara, Botan, in her kimono and riding her broom, and Koemna approaching the large gate that lead to the castle that acts of King Emma's and Koemna's home and `seat' of government for the Spirit World.
Solar Sun says, in his usual tone, “Never thought that I would be here, again.”
Sailor Galaxy says, with a interested tone, “So, this is the Spirit World, huh?”
Botan says, with a serious tone, “Oh, right. Even through you and Keiko been through many of Yusuke's adventures as a Spirit Detective, neither of you have been to the Spirit World before.”
Sailor Universe nods her head and says, “Yeah. This is a pretty interesting place.”
Koemna tells Sailor Universe, in a serious tone, “Well, you have to remember that this isn't a sight seeing trip, Keiko. We are here to see and dethrone my father in order to stop him and ensure Serena's safety when she and her group return from Demon World.”
Kurama says, with a logical tone, “Well, this is very mysterious. I would have expected some form of defense against us.”
Hiei says, with a plain tone, “Since the Moon Princess when her demon ancestor possessed her took out the Spirit Defense Forces, King Emma has lost the core of the Spirit World's defense has been taken out of the picture.”
Koemna says, with a nod, “True. But that doesn't mean that Spirit World is totally defenseless. My father still has some soldiers under his control. They are not as powerful as the Spirit Defense Forces, but they aren't too easy to beat.” Just then dozens of blue light beams come from the castle and land on the ground causing them to transform into human-like forms wearing grey military uniforms.
Kuwabara says, with a plain tone, “We see what you mean, Koemna.”
The leader of the group tells them, “Halt! By the orders of King Emma, you are to return to the Human World immediately! And Prince Koemna, you are to see your father at once!”
Koemna tells the leader of the group of soldiers stopping them, in a plain tone, “I will see my father . . . with Yusuke and the others to demand him to step down as ruler of the Spirit World!”
The leader of the soldiers yells out, with a deadly serious tone, “That's treasonous talk, Prince Koemna!”
Prince Koemna says, with a serious tone, “Only if my forces are defeated by my father, but I doubt that will happen!”
The leader of the soldiers says, with a serious tone, “We will not hold back, Prince Koemna! We have been ordered to use deadly force against you and your former detective team! If you do not comply, you and your former detective team will be put under arrest!”
Solar Sun cracks his knuckles as his powerful aura surrounds his body and he says, with a sly grin, “Is that a threat?! Please say that it is!”
Kuwabara summons his Spirit Sword into his hands and he says, with a sly grin, “Yeah! We insist!” The group of Spirit World soldiers gulp and become nervous, knowing how powerful Koemna's former detective team is, but they prepare to stand their group and fight back as much as possible.
Botan asks Sailor Universe, concerned tone, “Keiko, are you sure that you are ready for this?”
Sailor Universe replies, with a serious and determined tone, “I've always been a burden to Yusuke even if you or even he didn't think so. However, this time, I plan to help Yusuke and Serena after all they've done for me and I've been in a few battle already, I'm sure I'll do fine.”
Solar Sun tells Sailor Universe, with a sly grin, “I know that you will, Kei. I mean you can kick my butt, demon and spirit powers or not.”
Sailor Universe replies, with a sly grin, “And don't you forget it, Yusuke.” As our former Spirit Detective team and Sailor Universe prepares for battle, the soldiers of the Spirit World look less than eager, but prepare to fight with all that they have to protect their ruler: King Emma.
(Back in Demon World; A short time later)
Returning to the realm of the demons, we find our Moon Princess, her friends, allies, daughter, and beloved, and their demon guides in the world of the Makai on top of Mukuro's mobile fortress with Mukuro at the border of huge mountainous region.
Mukuro points deeper into the mountainous area that they are in front of and she says, plainly, “This is as far as we will dare go. The rest is up to you.”
Sailor Mercury asks Mukuro, plainly, “I don't mean to be disrespectful, but how can you be sure?”
Mukuro replies, “Many rumors of seeing mysterious demons not known to the rest of the Makai or kinds that have vanished are formed in this area and the Yu-Zen are demons that have supposed. It is kind of human stories about seeing aliens for other worlds or creatures from their imaginations in remote places.”
Tuxedo Mask asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “What do you think?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious and firm tone, “She is this way. I can somehow feel it.”
Sailor Mars asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Are you sure, Sailor Moon?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head and replies, with a firm tone, “Yes. This feeling is too strong to ignore. We have to go through those mountains to find her . . . my demon ancestor.”
Sailor Saturn says, with a plain and serious tone, “Best not to argue with Serena-hime when she is this sure.”
Sailor Pluto says, with a nod, “I will have to agree with you, Firefly.”
Sailor Vesta yells out, seriously, “Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's go!”
Sailor Ceres says, with a serious tone, “We just fly in there without knowing what we are up against!”
Sailor Neptune says, with a serious tone, “However, Ceres, Mukuro has no other knowledge of what lies beyond those mountains. Most demons that enter there don't come out and others don't even come close, so, there very little information about that area.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “Which means that only way of finding out is to get there. Let's go.” Valkyrie Sailor Moon then flies ahead towards the mountain range and beyond.
Sailor Mars yells out, annoyed, “Wait for us, Sailor Moon!” Soon after, the rest of our heroes and heroines with Tuxedo Mask flying on Selena and the six demon friends of Yusuke and Hikari Urameshi head off into the mountain range to get across and find Valkyrie Sailor Moon's demon ancestor.
Mukuro says, plainly, “Good luck . . . Princess Serenity.” Soon after, Mukuro enters back into his mobile headquarters, which moves away after several minutes as it leaves to continue its patrol for humans that accidentally found their way to Demon World.
(Returning back to the Spirit World; A short time soon after)
Within the hallways of the large castle within Spirit World where King Emma lives and rules from his throne, there are multiple explosions and beams of spirit energy going all around and within this chaos, we find Solar Sun, Sailor Universe, and Kuwabara pinned to a corner with Koemna and Botan behind them while Hiei, Sailor Galaxy, and Kurama behind them covering their behinds. Across the corner, there is a large amount of Spirit World's soldiers, who are not as strong as the Spirit Defense Force, firing down the hallway at our heroes and heroines, blocking their entrance to the path to King Emma.
Solar Sun yells out, in his usual annoyed tone, “Damn it! They are real pests!”
Koemna tells Solar Sun, in a serious tone, “I told you that this wouldn't be easy. The Spirit Defense Forces might be the toughest of Spirit World's soldiers, but that doesn't mean that there are more pretty tough customers as soldiers of the Spirit World.”
Kuwabara, his Spirit Sword at the ready, says, seriously, “We kind of got that, Koemna.”
Botan asks Koemna, “Now, what do we do?”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “We can't let them delay us for too long! The faster that we get to the throne room, the faster we can get to my father.”
Solar Sun yells out, with his usual tone, “We know that, Koemna! But how do we get to your dad?! These dorks might not be strong on their own, but together, they are a real pain in the neck!”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “Like those chosen to become part of the Spirit Defense Force, all soldiers of the Spirit World are taught to fight as a team with their own individual skills helping out the whole.”
Kuwabara yells out, annoyed, “And how does that help us get through this crossfire of spirit energy already?!”
Kurama yells out, in a plain and logical tone, “We must hurry. We might have more company down this hall behind us soon.”
Sailor Universe says, with a serious tone, “Let me try something.” Botan, Koemna, Solar Sun, and Kuwabara look to see Sailor Universe close her eyes and her body gives off a golden glow. Soon after, Sailor Universe vanishes as she teleports away.
Solar Sun yells out, stunned, “Keiko!”
Botan asks, perplexed, “Where did she go?!” Just then multiple cries of shock and pain come from down the hallway as explosions of fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, and more come from down the hallway. Soon after, the barrage of spirit energy from across the corner and down the hallway stops and the group look at each other in wonderment. The group quickly enters the corner and they find Sailor Universe standing over a group of unconscious Spirit World soldiers with anime spirals in their eyes and groaning out in pain.
Kuwabara asks, surprised, “What did you do to them, Keiko?”
Sailor Universe says, with a smile, “I teleported right in their midst and they were so surprised that they didn't have time to counter all of the elemental attacks that I launched against them. I did about one dozen in all.”
Botan yells out, amazed, “Wow! Way to go!” Soon after, Hiei, Kurama, and Sailor Galaxy arrive on the scene.
Sailor Galaxy yells out, stunned, “Who took care of these guys?!”
Solar Sun says, with a proud smile on his lips, “My girlfriend, who else?!”
Sailor Galaxy asks, amazed, “You did, Kei?!”
Sailor Universe says, with a sly smile, “Why do you seem so surprised, Kari? I am a Sailor Senshi after all.”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “We can continue Keiko's praises later, everyone. We need to keep going.”
Hiei says, plainly, “Those fools are going to take this time to attack us while we are yapping so we have to keep moving.”
Solar Sun yells out, strongly, “Well, what we waiting for?!” Soon after, our group run down the hallway and continuing their trek to the throne room of King Emma, ruler of the Spirit World and Koemna's father as well as the `person' that they are going to take down to ensure Sailor Moon's safety in the Human World when she returns from finding her demon ancestor and make King Emma answer to his crimes.
(Back down in the Human World; Soon after)
Back in the `Human World' and on Duel Academy, we find Yami Marik, with a black version of the Academy Duel Disk attached to his left wrist that has a dueling deck inside, standing over a fallen male Obelisk Blue student while three male Ra Yellow students with two female Obelisk Students look at the Yami Marik along with his mind-controlled slaves, Strings, Arcana, and some of his other Rare Hunters that he `drafted' back into his service with great fear as the Millennium Symbol, the Eye of Ra/Horus, shines brightly over his head.
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “Ah! How wonderful it is to send another pathetic soul into the Shadow Realm!” Yami Marik looks to the frightened students in front of him and he says, with an evil wicked smile, “Who would be my next victim?!”
Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Stop right there, Marik!”
Yami Marik thinks in his mind, with an evil sly grin, “Right on time and I can sense his successor with him!” When Yami Marik and his mind-controlled Rare Hunters look behind them, they see Jaden, Alexis, and all of their friends with Yugi, Atem, and their friends running towards them.
Alexis yells out, angrily, “What did you do to that poor Obelisk?”
Yami Marik replies, with an evil sly grin, “What does happen to someone when they lose a REAL Shadow Game? Not the wimpy versions that you have been playing on those pathetic fools in the Society Light!”
Atem yells out, angrily, “Curse you, Marik! You are just as evil as ever!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “Why thank you, Pharaoh . . . Or should I say, Atem instead? Since your throne is being passed on to the Moon Prince, I don't think you have the right to be called Pharaoh anymore.”
Atem tells Yami Marik, with a serious tone, “I don't really care what you call me! You are going to be stopped!” On the meanwhile, Jasmine, Mindy, Danielle, and Shala go over to the frightened students.
Mindy asks them, concerned tone, “Are you okay?” The three students can only nod their heads with what just happened to their fellow student has them `freaked out' to say the least.
Just then Alexis' voice booms, seriously, “Jasmine! Girls! Watch out!” Jasmine and the three other Sun Kingdom Sailor Scouts turn to see Arcana and String heading towards them.
Arcana says, with a labored tone, “I don't think so, brat!”
Jasmine yells out, with a serious tone, “That's what you think, freak!” Jasmine leaps forward and with two well-placed karate kicks, knocked them to the ground.
Jaden yells out, amazed, “Wow! Jasmine is really getting good as a fighter!”
Alexis tells Jaden, with a sly grin, “With all of the training that we did, what did you expect Jasmine to be?”
Yami Marik says, with a snort, “You are starting to alloy me!”
Joey says, with a sly grin, “Glad to know that we are doing our jobs, freak!”
Yugi tells Yami Marik, with a serious tone, “It is time to duel, Marik! And end your evil, once and for all!”
Yami Marik tells Yugi, with an evil smile, “Sorry, little Yugi, but it isn't you that I want!” Yami Marik points at Jaden and he says, “It's him! He is Atem's successor! He holds the three God Cards and the power of the Pharaoh! I will take them when I defeat him!”
Jaden says, with a serious tone, “Don't count on it, bro!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “Then duel me unless you are a coward, boy!”
Syrus yells out, angrily, “Hey, no one calls my pal a coward!”
Tyranno asks Syrus, annoyed, “Your pal?!”
Alexis tells the two of them, seriously, “This is the time you two!”
Jaden puts his duel disk to his left wrist and puts his dueling deck into his duel disk causing him to call out, “Coward? I never back down from a challenge! Let's duel!”
Atem tells Jaden, with a serious tone, “Be careful, Jaden! This duel will most likely be a Shadow Game like last time and Marik's dark side can't be trusted to duel fair!”
Jaden tells Atem, with a sly grin, “Don't worry, Atem! It will be cake! I mean, how tough can he be without the Sacred Beast cards and I have the Egyptian God Monsters along with my best buds, the Neo-Spacians and my Elemental Heroes, on my side?!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “Is that what you think boy?! Well, you're wrong! I have monsters in my deck, now, that rival the Egyptian God and Sacred Beasts in power!”
Jaden and his friends gasps out in shock and Atem yells out, stunned, “Impossible! No other cards other than the Sacred Beasts can even come close to rivaling the Egyptian Gods!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “That's what you think, Atem! It is time for the future Pharaoh to be dethroned before he even took the throne and I shall finally claim the power that's mine!”
Jaden tells Yami Marik, with a serious tone, “No way, bro!” Jaden and Yami Marik activate their duel disks, their life-points counters displays 4000 life-points each, and both of them draw five cards from their decks.
“Let's duel!” Yami Marik and Jaden say in unison as their rematch begins.
Starting Scores:
Yami Marik: 4000
Jaden: 4000
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “I'll let you go first, boy.”
Jaden draws one card from his deck and he says, “Okay, thanks! Now, get your game on!” Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “I play my Graceful Charity! I draw three cards from my deck and discard two from my hand!” Jaden draws three cards from his deck, discards two from his hand, and he thinks in his mind, with a sly smile, “Sweet! I've got one of the cards that I will need to squash this guy flat in my hand! And now, time to summon my new pal right to the field!” Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play my Premature Burial! I give up eight hundred points in order to summon one monster from my graveyard and I choose my Hero Kid!” Jaden's life-points drop by 800 and Hero Kid (300/600) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden then says, as two cards come out of his deck, “And since I've special summoned Hero Kid, I can summon all other Hero Kids from my deck to the field! So, come on dudes!” Jaden take the two cards, put them on his duel disk, and two more Hero Kids (300/600 X 2) come to the field in attack mode. Jaden then says, with a sly grin, “Next, I'll sacrifice all three little dudes to summon up a card that everyone knows.” The three Hero Kids vanish from the field, Jaden puts a card on his duel disk, causing it to wildly spark, and Jaden yells out, with a sly smile, “Time for the big guns! Obelisk the Tormentor, come on down!” Everyone gasps in shock as a blue bolt lands behind Jaden forcing everyone to cover their eyes and out of the ground, Obelisk the Tormentor (4000/4000) appears behind Jaden in attack mode.
Tristan yells out, amazed, “Whoa! Amazing!”
Tea says, amazed, “Jaden summoned an Egyptian God Card on his first turn.”
Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “I see that Jaden's dueling abilities have grown even stronger than before from this whole experience.”
Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I play my Mirage of Nightmare spell card!” Jaden then puts the final three cards in his hand in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Then I'll throw down three face-down cards and call it a turn!”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 4000
Jaden: 3200
Yami Marik draws one card from his deck and calls out, with an evil smile, “My turn, boy!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “And my draw, thanks to Mirage of Nightmare! This card allows me to draw until I have four cards in my hand!” Jaden draws from his deck until he has four cards in his hand, Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk, and he yells out, with a sly grin, “Next, I reveal my face-down card! Emergency Provisions!” Jaden's face-down card proves to be the Emergency Provisions Quick-Spell card and Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Thanks to this sweet card, I get one thousand life-points back as long as sent one spell or trap card on my side of the field to the graveyard! So, Adios, Mirage of Nightmare!” The hologram of the Mirage of Nightmare Continuous Spell card vanishes from the field and Jaden's life-points increase by 1000 more points.
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “You will need those points and those cards for what I'm about to unleash, boy!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Give me your best shot, freak!”
Yami Marik puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, “I summon my Plasma Eel in attack mode!” Plasma Eel (500/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Yami Marik then puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, evilly, “Next, I play my Machine Duplication spell card! Since I have a machine monster with five hundred attack points on the field, I can summon every other Plasma Eel in my deck directly to the field!” Soon after, two cards come out of Yami Marik's deck, he puts them on his duel disk, and two more Plasma Eels (500/1200 X 2) come in the field in attack mode.
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Sorry, bro, I hate to tell you this, but your Eels can't scratch my main man Obelisk!”
Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Your so called God is nothing, boy! And I shall prove it with this! Quick-Summon! This spell card allows me one more Normal Summon this turn! And I choose to sacrifice all three of my Eels!” Just then all three Eels are surrounded by cyclones of dark wind as they vanish from the field.
Yugi calls out, stunned, “A triple sacrifice?! What could he be summoning?!”
Yami Marik puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, with an evil sly smile, “Now, boy, witness the power of a creature that you have never seen before! I summon my Wicked God Card: The Wicked Avatar!”
Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Kagome yells out, stunned, “Wicked God Card?!”
Alexis yells out, stunned, “I've never heard of a Wicked God Card before!” Just then a huge black sphere similar to the Winged Dragon of Ra in sphere mode comes over the field.
Atticus yells out, shocked, “What in the world is that?!”
Yami Marik calls out, with an evil sly smile, “This is my Wicked God Card: The Wicked Avatar!”
Atem yells out, flabbergasted, “I can't believe it! They exist!”
Everyone looks at Atem and Yugi asks Atem, “Atem, do you know what these Wicked God Cards are?”
Atem nods his head and he says, with a serious tone, “Yes, I do. They are the Wicked God Cards. As you know, Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra are Divine Creatures, but they are Divine Creatures of Light since they come from the Creator of Light. The Wicked God Cards are the dark opposite of the Egyptian God Monsters, equal in every single way, but the only difference is that they are Divine Creatures of Darkness while the Egyptian God Cards are Divine Creatures of Light. The two balance out each other in order for life to remain balanced.”
Tea asks Atem, worriedly, “Are they just as strong as the Egyptian Gods, Atem?”
Atem says, with a serious tone, “Unfortunately, the Wicked God Cards are just as powerful as the Egyptian God Cards. From my time in the afterlife, I learned that Pegasus created the Wicked God Cards to balance out the powers of the Egyptian God Cards, but he had sealed them away in a very secret location. I'm not sure how Marik's dark side got them, but Jaden is in terrible danger.”
Mindy says, with great worry, “That's not good.”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “Yes, indeed. For Atem's successor, anyway, but it is time to move on with this duel. Now, you must be wondering what my Wicked God Card's power is. Well, its attack and defense points are the attack points of the strongest monster on the field, yours or my side, and increased by one hundred!”
Jaden yells out, stunned, “No way!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “Yes, observe!” Just then The Wicked Avatar transforms into a copy of Obelisk the Tormentor expect that it is pitch black with red glowing eyes and its stats become 4100/4100!
Joey yells out, stunned, “He became a copy of Obelisk! And an even stronger copy I have to mention!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “By the way, there is something that you should know! When my Wicked Avatar is summoned to the field, Prince Judai can't play any trap or spell card until after his second turn when my Wicked God Card is summoned!”
Jaden yells out, in disbelief, “No way!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “Oh, yes, boy! And since I've set the mood of fear for this duel! It's time that we took it to the next level! Blackness surrounds all of us!” Soon after, a familiar black and dark violet fog surrounds the whole area.
Syrus says, worriedly, “Oh no! I know what this means!”
Atem says, seriously, “This duel has become a Shadow Game!”
Yami Marik calls out, with an evil serious tone, “That's right, Atem! And your successor is about to suffer in this game!” Yami Marik then commands, with an evil sly grin, “Avatar, destroy his pathetic Egyptian God! Crush Obelisk the Tormentor with your Fist of Darkness!” The Wicked Avatar then slams a darkness charged fist into Obelisk's chest, going right through its chest, and it smashes into dust causing Jaden to lose 100 life-points. Jaden then groans out in pain as a blue stream of energy leaves his body.
Syrus yells out, shocked, “Jaden!”
Tyranno asks, stunned, “What happened?”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “Simple, fools! In this Shadow Game, when you lose life-points, you lose your energy!”
Alexis calls out, stunned, “You can't!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “I just did, little Sun Princess! Your poor boyfriend is about to lose his power, his God Cards, and his life!”
Jaden tells Yami Marik, with a serious tone, “Sorry, bro! But I'm far from finished!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “Well, without your spell and trap cards for a few turns, I would say that you are! Without the ability to fuse your monsters or summon high-level ones for that damn Contact Fusion with that Neos and your Neo-Spacians, this duel will be your last!”
Jaden thinks in his mind, seriously, “I hate to admit it, but he is right! Until two turns pass, I can't play my spell and trap card, including Polymerization! However, I know that there is a way to win and I'll find it!” Soon after, The Wicked Avatar transforms back into a large black sphere.
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “I think that's enough damage for now.”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 4000
Jaden: 4100
Jaden draws one card from his deck and he says, with a serious tone, “My move!” As Jaden prepares to make his move, he wonders what he can do against the power of The Wicked Avatar without his God Card, spells, and trap cards.
(A short time later; within the Realm of the Makai)
Back in the realm of the Makai, we find our Sailor Scouts and six demon guides find themselves deep within the mountainous region and walking along a mountain pathway as they struggle from a real powerful snow storm. With the incredible fierce winds and thick storms, our Sailor Scouts can't use their wings to fly along with Selena. Our group is struggling through the storm with Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask riding on Selena with Tuxedo Mask covering Valkyrie Sailor Moon with his cape. Sailor Mercury is using her visor and computer to find a way out of this storm or into some kind of cave for safety.
Sailor Venus asks Sailor Mercury, “Hey, Ami-chan, have you found any kind of shelter yet?!”
Sailor Juno yells out, seriously, “Yeah! I'm freezing out here!”
Sailor Neptune says, with a plain tone, “This is one thing that Sailor Scout powers or should I say, our uniforms weren't build for.”
Sailor Saturn says, shivering somewhat, “I agree, Michelle-mama. Our uniforms weren't built for this kind of weather.”
Tuxedo Mask asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, concerned tone, “How are you doing Serena-chan?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “I'm okay, Darien-chan. I'm wearing heavy armor that's helping me keep warm. I'm more concerned about the others. We need to find shelter before they freeze to death.”
Touya says, with a plain tone, “Thankfully. Since I'm an ice demon, I'm able to handle the cold.”
Rinku says, shivering in cold, “S-S-Speak for yourself T-T-Touya.”
Sailor Mars yells out, with a serious tone, “We have to find shelter somewhere!”
Just then something appears on Sailor Mercury's computer and Sailor Mercury exclaims, with a serious tone, “There is a cave just ahead of that's large enough to hold all of us! Just a few meters ahead!”
Sailor Ceres asks Sailor Mercury, seriously, “Are you sure, Mercury?!”
Sailor Mercury nods her head and she says, with a serious tone, “Yes!”
Sailor Vesta calls out, with a serious tone, “Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's go!” The group continued to advance in the direction that Sailor Mercury pointed and she continues to give directions. Soon enough, they found a huge cave and all of them enter the cave.
Sailor Ceres says, seriously, “We need to seal the entrance!”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon yells out, seriously, “Leave it to me!” Valkyrie Sailor Moon flies up to the roof with her wings. She then, with controlled collapses, covers the entrance of the cave with stones. Sailor Mars uses her flames to seal it up in order to keep the winds from blowing the entrance open. Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon's and Sailor Mini-Moon's brooches give off bright silver glows to light up the cave.
Sailor Venus says, with a serious tone, “Well, it looks like we are stuck for a while.”
Jin says, with his barely audible tone, “Aye! With that wigged wing blowing out there, there is no way we are going anywhere!”
Shizuki says, with a serious tone, “Makes you wonder why no one of demons that came across this way ever returned.”
Sailor Mars asks, annoyed, “So, now, what do we do?”
Sailor Mercury is scanning around with her visor and she says, her scanners picking up something, “There seems to be a pathway ahead of us.”
Sailor Jupiter asks Sailor Mercury, “What does that mean, Mercury?”
Sailor Mercury says, with a serious and logical tone, “There seems to be a pathway ahead of us and it looks like it leads into another part of the mountain.”
Selena tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “Well, with that eternal storm going on out there, it might be our only way to get out of here.”
Sailor Pallas says, with a plain tone, “The talking horsy is right. We can't go out there.”
Sailor Ceres says, with a serious tone, “I have to admit, Sailor Pallas has a point.”
Sailor Mini-Moon says, with a serious tone, “Well, I say that we go.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a sigh, “Mini-Moon has a point. We can't stay here forever.”
Sailor Mars yells out, with a serious tone, “Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's go!” Soon enough, our group of heroes and heroines, human, half-demon, and full demon, walk ahead with Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Sailor Mini-Moon with their glowing brooches leading the way.
(Returning to the duel between Yami Marik and Jaden; back in the `Human World')
On the meanwhile, back in the `Human World', we are back in the Shadow Game between Yami Marik and Jaden. Jaden has 4100 life-points, two face-down cards on the field, and no monsters. On the meanwhile, Yami Marik has 4000 life-points, no face-down cards, and The Wicked Avatar (?/?) on the field in attack mode, which takes the form of the strongest attack monster on the field plus 100 points for attack and defense points. However, it is Jaden's turn and he has already drawn his card.
Jaden looks at his hand and he thinks, “What can I do? That monster could destroy any monster since it takes the attack of the strongest monster on the field and increases it by one hundred points!” Jaden then thinks, realizing something, “Wait! He takes the value of the strongest attack points monster and not the strongest defense! There could be a way to stop his attack for a while!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “Are you scared, yet, boy?”
Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Sacred? Me? No way! I'm having a blast!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “We'll see how you feel when I send you to the Shadow Realm!”
Jaden puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, “Don't count on it, bro! I summon my Elemental Hero Clayman in defense mode!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Clayman (800/2000) comes to the field in defense mode and The Wicked Avatar transforms into the form of Clayman with 900/900 stats. Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Sweet! I knew it! Your monster takes the value of the strongest attack monster on the field's attack points and increases them by one hundred, but not its defense!”
Yami Marik gives an annoyed sneer and Alexis yells out, with a smile, “Yes!”
Syrus calls out, excitedly, “Way to play, Jay!”
Tyranno says, with a sly grin, “Nice move, Sarge!”
Jaden says, with a sly smile, “I'll end my turn here, bro!”
Yami Marik draws one card from his deck, gives an annoyed sneer, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll place one card face-down and that's all!”
Jaden draws one card from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and he says, “I'll throw down a face-down and call it a turn! And now, since two turns have pasted, I can play my spell and trap cards again!”
Yami Marik draws one card from his deck, puts the card in the spell/trap slots, and he says, “Now, I play my Pot of Greed and draw two more cards from my deck!” Yami Marik draws two more cards from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, with an evil sly grin, “Next, I play my Fiend's Sanctuary! This card gives me one Metal Fiend Token on my side of the field!” Soon after, a Metal Fiend Token (0/0) comes to Yami Marik's side of the field in attack mode, Yami Marik then puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, with an evil smile, “Now, I sacrifice my monster to summon the mighty Summoned Skull in attack mode!” Metal Fiend Token vanishes from the field and Summoned Skull (2500/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Soon after, The Wicked Avatar transforms into a black version of Summoned Skull with 2600/2600 stats!
Atem says, worriedly, “Oh no! Since the strongest monster is Summoned Skull, The Wicked Avatar has gained its power now!”
Joey says, with a serious tone, “More than enough to take Jay's defense!”
Yami Marik calls out, darkly, “Summoned Skull, destroy his pathetic hero! Lightning Strike!” Summoned Skull gives a demonic roar as it rains lightning down on Jaden's Clayman.
Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, “Wrong! I play my Hero Barrier trap card!” Jaden's face-down card is revealed to be the Hero Barrier trap card and Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Thanks to this card, since I have hero on my side of the field, I can negate your attack!”
Yami Marik pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, with an evil sly smile, “Wrong, fool! I play my Trap Jammer!” Yami Marik's face-down card is revealed to be the Trap Jammer trap card and Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “Since you played a trap card during a battle, this card negates your card.” Jaden yelps out in shock as his Hero Barrier trap card is destroyed and Summoned Skull's attack slams into Clayman, destroying it.
Jasmine says, worriedly, “Oh boy! Jaden is helpless!”
Yami Marik calls out, with an evil sadistic smile, “Yes! Now, Wicked Avatar, attack his life-points with Darkness Lightning Strike!” The Wicked Avatar fires a dark version of Summoned Skull's attack right at Jaden.
Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, seriously, “Not so fast, bro! I play my trap! Hero Spirits!” Soon after, Jaden's next face-down is revealed to be the Hero Spirits trap card and a transparent version of Clayman appears in front of Jaden causing The Wicked Avatar's attack to hit it instead of Jaden causing the attack to be negated. Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Sorry, Marik, but thanks to this card, when a hero is destroyed, this card can reduce the damage from a battle to zip, zero, and not one point lost.”
Yami Marik says, with a serious snarl, “Not bad. Enjoy it.”
Jaden draws one card from his deck and he says, with a sly smile, “No joke, bro!” Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and says, “Now, I play my Pot of Greed! This card allows me to draw two cards from my deck!” Jaden draws two cards from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and says, “Now, I play my Polymerization!” Jaden discards Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000), Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400), and Elemental Hero Bubbleman (800/1200) monster card from his hand to the graveyard, takes a fusion monster from his fusion deck, and calls out, “Now, I fuse my Avian, Sparkman, and Bubbleman to form . . . wait for it!” The three monsters appear on the field, go into a fusion vortex, Jaden puts the fusion monster card on his duel disk, and yells out, with a sly grin, “Elemental Hero Tempest!” Out of the fusion vortex, Elemental Hero Tempest (2800/2800) comes to the field in attack mode.
Soon after, The Wicked Avatar transforms into a dark version of Tempest with 2900/2900 stats and Yami Marik says, evilly, “Is that really all you have, boy? Have you forgotten that my Wicked Avatar transforms into the strongest monster on the field and its attack and defense is equal to that monster's attack power plus one hundred?!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Not really. I know that your monster transforms into a stronger version of my monster, but that doesn't it can get weaker!”
Yami Marik asks, perplexed, “What do you mean?!”
Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, “What I mean is this! I play my Shrink spell card!” Jaden's face-down card is revealed to be the Shrink Quick-Spell card and he says, with a sly grin, “Thanks to this sweet card, your Wicked God gets its power cut in half!”
Yami Marik yells out, stunned, “No!” The Wicked Avatar's stats then get reduce from 2900/2900 to 1450/2900!
Jaden calls out, seriously, “Tempest, show this fake what real air power is! Glider Strike!” Tempest launches a beam of blue energy at The Wicked Avatar, destroying it, and costing Yami Marik some 1350 life-points causing him to groan as red energy leaves his body.
Syrus yells out, excitedly, “Jaden!”
Joey says, excitedly, “Awesome! Jaden took out that fake toot-sweet!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin while putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, “I'll throw down two face-downs and let you have a try.”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 2650
Jaden: 4100
Yami Marik has his head lowered after the attack, he gives out a slight groan, and he says, with a plain tone, “Not bad, boy.” Yami Marik's head shoots, displaying an evil sadistic grin, and he yells out, with an evil sly tone, “But it will take more than that to keep me down!” Yami Marik then sticks out his tongue in an evil gross manner.
Mindy says, plainly, “He's gross!”
Shala says, plainly, “You said it, girlfriend.”
Yami Marik draws one card from his deck and calls out, evilly, “My move! And don't forget boy! I've still got two Wicked Gods left in my deck and you don't know what they are capable of!”
Tyranno says, with a serious snarl, “What does that freak have up his sleeves this time?”
Tea says, worriedly, “Personally, I don't want to find out.”
(Returning to the Spirit World; during this time)
Back in the Spirit World, we find King Emma sitting down on his throne with an emotionless expression on his face and strong and stern look in his eyes. Soon after, he hears a large banging on his large front door as well as multiple explosions causing the King of the Spirit World to take a deep breath.
King Emma thinks in his mind, seriously, “So, they have broken through our defenses and they have arrived! I knew that they couldn't stop the Ma-zoku Urameshi twins, especially with the power of the Silver Millennium behind them.”
Soon after, a large explosion comes from the doors in his throne room, Solar Sun, Sailor Galaxy, Sailor Universe, Kurama, Hiei, Kuwabara, Koemna, in his teenage form, and Botan, in her kimono and riding her broom, fly into the room and Kuwabara yells out, amazed, “Whoa! That's your father?!”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “Yes, Kuwabara. Everyone, I would like for you to meet your father, King Emma of the Spirit World.”
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “Why do turn against me my son? And why do you recruit this half-breed and his sister to stop me?”
Koemna tells him, plainly, “You know damn well why I'm doing this father. It seems like Sailor Moon's Earth blood has a demon ancestry, a Yu-Zen, and her demon ancestor possessed her. And she accused you of helping Queen Beryl and the Negaverse destroy the Silver Millennium around five millennia ago!”
King Emma asks, plainly, “Do you believe that demon?”
Koemna says, with a serious tone and deadly glare in his eyes, “Do you deny this?” King Emma looks straight at his son with the same glare, but neither one would back down.
King Emma states, with a plain tone, “And what if I did?”
Everyone gasps in shock and Sailor Galaxy yells out, angrily, “You son of a bitch! If you didn't know, one of the kingdoms in the Silver Millennium was my home!”
Solar Sun yells out, angrily, “As well as mine, you overgrown giant!”
King Emma tells Solar Sun, “You and your sister better still your tongues. You might be royalty, but you are only a prince and princess and I am a king!”
Solar Sun calls out, with his usual tone, “Not for long, asshole! It's time to dethrone your butt because you have some major crimes to pay for!”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “Father, I do not understand! Queen Serenity would not ally with you just in order to increase your power, so, you help destroy her kingdom along with all of the other kingdoms in the Milky Way, which set humanity back for thousands of years!”
King Emma tells Koemna, with a plain tone, “You are becoming your own man, son, but it seems like these Ma-zoku have sent you astray. These two Ma-zoku acts too much like humans. If there more like their ancestral father, the late King Raizen, they would have at least shown the right path in handling affairs of being a ruler better. I do not like Raizen at all, but I respect him as a ruler. Former King Yomi and Former King or should I say, Queen Mukuro, knew the correct way to rule in a chaotic universe such as this. You are . . . too soft, my son.”
Koemna says, with a sneer, “Soft?! Has having compassion and doing the right thing become just that to you?! Being soft?! Ruling for all these years has hardened your heart father!”
Sailor Galaxy says, with a sneer, “If he has one.”
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “You are truly followers of the Moon Princess and her mother! You do not have what it takes to be true rulers! You really believe that current state of affairs in the Spirit and Human Worlds are very much different for how things work in the Makai! You are wrong! The Demon and Human World are very much alike than any of you will want to admit! Chaotic! Long ago, I took the steps necessary to keep the order of things in the universe!”
Koemna calls out, angrily, “By helping to destroy a galactic civilizations?!”
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “Queen Serenity was a fool! Her ways would have led to total chaos in the universe! The only way that order could be restored and the Human World of Earth could be taken care of was to get of both the Negaverse and the Silver Millennium!”
Solar Sun yells out, angrily, “So, you helped them just enough to make sure that we destroy each other! You are one hell of a piece of work! I can't believe that you are Koemna's father! They say that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but Koemna is one hell of an exception!”
Sailor Galaxy says, with a serious tone, “All right, jerk, you are stepping down from your throne or we are taking you down!”
King Emma stands on his feet and yells out, annoyed, “You dare threaten me, Princess Hikari?!”
Solar Sun yells out, angrily, “Damn right that we do!”
Kuwabara tells Solar Sun, a bit worriedly, “Urameshi, do you think that it is a good idea to get him mad?”
Solar Sun says, with a sly grin, “Ha! Doubtful that `big daddy' here has any power to fight! Koemna didn't have any because he has been storing it all for all his life!”
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “And there is the difference, Urameshi!” Everyone looks at King Emma, his body glows in a bright blue aura, and he says, with a serious tone, “If my son hasn't storing his spiritual aura in that pacifier for practically all his life, he would have had formidable spiritual power. However, unlike my son, I have not been storing my power away in some kind of powerful object. My power is very much within my body and I am quite powerful.”
Kurama says, with a serious tone, “Yusuke, he is bluffing on this! King Emma holds a powerful spiritual aura.”
Hiei says, plainly, “What did you expect from the ruler of the Spirit World? He just doesn't sit in a chair and direct all day.”
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “The fire demon has more sense than you, Urameshi. But if you wish to take me down . . . then you have no choice for me to carry out your `expired' execution order personally!” King Emma swings his mighty fist right at Solar Sun and he barely manages to dodge out of the way, but the impact creates a huge explosion throwing Koemna, Botan, Kurama, Hiei, and Kurama back hard while Sailor Galaxy and Sailor Universe scream out as they are sent flying, barely managing to stop before they hit the ceiling.
Solar Sun yells out, shocked, “Oh, Geez! Shit! Big daddy does pack a big punch!”
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “Indeed, Urameshi.” King Emma tells Koemna, “My son, if you wish to claim my throne, then your former detective team and your warriors must defeat me in battle. If they fail, they will all die.”
Hiei says, with a sly grin, “Fine by mine. Not many demons get the chance to a chance to take down the ruler of the Spirit World.”
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “Because those who have tried have fallen by my hand, fire demon.”
Solar Sun thinks with a serious tone, “Damn! I didn't think it would be this easy, but big daddy is no pushover! We're going to have a fight on our hands!” As our former Spirit Detective team prepares to take on Koemna's father, the ruler of the Spirit World, they know that this won't be an easy fight since King Emma is no easy target.
(Returning to Earth; Back to Academy Island)
Back on Academy Island, we return to the duel between Jaden and Yami Marik where we find Jaden with 4100 life-points, Elemental Hero Tempest (2800/2800) on the field in attack mode and two face-down cards while Yami Marik has Summoned Skull (2500/1200) in attack mode, no face-down cards, and 2650 life-points remaining.
Yami Marik has drawn one card from his deck, puts the card in the spell/trap slots, and says, “I play this! A spell known Card of Sanctity and this card forces both of us to draw until we have six cards in our hands!” Jaden and Yami Marik draw from their decks until they have six cards in their hands, Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, with an evil sadistic tone, “Next, I play this! It is spell that you might know well: Dark Fusion!”
Everyone gasps in shock and Chazz calls out, surprised, “Say what?!”
Yami Marik discards one Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) and one Elemental Hero Clayman (800/2000), the two monsters appear on the field, and Yami Marik calls out, darkly, “Now, I'll Dark Fuse Sparkman and Clayman to create this fiendish creature!” The two monsters go into a dark fusion vortex, Yami Marik puts a fusion monster card on his fusion deck, and he yells out, with an evil sly smile, “Evil Hero Lightning Golem!” Out of the dark fusion vortex, Evil Hero Lightning Golem (2400/1500) comes to the field in attack mode.
Jaden yells out, stunned, “How did you get those cards?!”
Yami Marik tells Jaden, with an evil sly grin, “Simple, foolish boy! I had my Rare Hunters sneak into your room and steal the Evil Heroes' deck from right under your nose! Now, they belong to me!”
Joey yells out, angrily, “You sleaze! Now, you steal in order to get what you want?! How low can you go Marik?!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “You are just jealous because with these cards mixed with original deck and Wicked God Cards, the son of Queen Serenity is about to fall to the shadows! Especially since Lightning Golem automatically destroys one monster on the Moon Prince's field per turn!”
Jaden says, drolly, “Oh, boy.” Lightning Golem blasts Tempest with red lightning and it is destroyed. Jaden yells out, shocked, “Tempest!”
Yami Marik yells out, strongly, “Now, my mighty Golem, attack him directly!” Evil Hero Lightning Golem fires another more powerful blast directly at Jaden.
Syrus yells out, seriously, “Jaden!”
Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, “I don't think so, pal! I play my face-down! Negate Attack!” Jaden's face-down card proves to be the Negate Attack trap card, Jaden is protected by a powerful barrier, and Lightning Golem's attack is negated. Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Sorry, Marik, but this duel is far from over! This card negates your attack and ends your Battle Phase!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly tone while putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “How desperate! I'll end my turn here!”
Jaden draws one card from his deck and he says, with a sly grin, “My move!” Jaden looks at his hand, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and he says, as the image of Elemental Hero Necroshade (1600/1800) appears behind him, “Now, I'll play my Necroshade's effect from the graveyard! This card allows me to summon one Elemental Hero without a sacrifice!” Jaden puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, “I'll play this sweet hero! Elemental Hero Neos!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a sly grin, “Now, I play my second Polymerization!” Jaden discards Elemental Hero Bladedge (2600/1800) and Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) monster cards from his hand, they appear on his field, they go into a fusion vortex, and Jaden calls out, as he takes out a fusion monster card from his fusion deck, “I fuse my Bladedge with my Wildheart to create . . .!” Jaden puts the fusion monster card on his duel disk and calls out, “The mighty Elemental Hero Wildedge in attack mode!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Wildedge (2600/2100) comes to the field in attack mode.
Yami Marik pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, with an evil sly grin, “Thank you for that boy! You've just triggered my trap! Celebration of Creation!” Yami Marik's face-down card is revealed to be the Celebration of Creation trap card.
Joey says, annoyed, “Oh great! Since Jaden summoned a monster with a spell or trap card, that card automatically ends his turn!”
Jaden states, a bit drolly, “Oh great.”
Yami Marik says, drawing one card from his deck, “And since your turn is over, boy, it is my turn!” Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with an evil sly smile, “I'll play my Silent Doom spell card! This card will allow me to summon one monster to the field in defense mode! And I'll choose my Elemental Hero Clayman!” Soon after, the darker skinned Elemental Hero Clayman (800/2000) comes to the field in defense mode. Yami Marik puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, evilly, “Next, I'll sacrifice my Summoned Skull, my Evil Hero Lightning Golem, and my Clayman to summon the second of my Wicked Gods!”
Jaden says, nervously, “Oh, boy.”
Syrus says, worriedly, “Oh, man! What does Jay have to contend with this time?!” The three monsters vanish in columns of black light and the whole ground started to quake and shake.
Mindy yells out, stunned, “What's going on?!”
Yami Marik yells out, evilly, “Meet The Wicked Dread-Root!” Just then out of the ground, The Wicked Dread-Root (4000/4000), a behemoth as large as Obelisk the Tormentor, green muscular skin and body, glowing yellow eyes, horned skull-like helmet on his head, demonic wings, and bone-like armor on its arms and shoulders with claws coming out of the armor on the knuckles, comes to the field in attack mode.
Jasmine yells out, shocked, “What in the hell is that?!”
Alexis says, seriously, “Big trouble!”
Kagome says, worriedly, “All coming for Jaden!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil smile, “They're right, boy! Thanks to the special ability of my monster, the attack and defense strengths of all other monsters on the field are cut in half!”
Jaden yells out, shocked, “Say what?!” Just then The Wicked Dread-Root (4000/4000) gives an incredible demonic screech and Neos and Wildedge groan out in pain as their stats get reduced with Neos' stats go down to 1250/1000 and Wildedge's stats reduce down to 1300/1050!
Yami Marik calls out, with an evil smile, “Now, my Wicked God, destroy his pathetic Neos! Dread Fist!” The Wicked Dread-Root rushes in to attack Elemental Hero Neos with its huge right fist.
Jaden pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, with a serious tone, “Sorry! I play my trap! Invincible Hero!” Jaden's face-down card is revealed to be the Invincible Hero trap card and Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Sorry, bro, but this card makes my hero invincible for one turn!”
Yami Marik says, with an evil sly smile, “So, you saved your monster?! You didn't save your life-points!” Dread-Root's fist slams into Neos and while Neos isn't destroyed, Jaden groans out in pain as he loses 2750 life-points and a large amount of his energy.
Alexis yells out, worriedly, “Jaden!”
Kagome says, seriously, “This isn't good! Jaden just lost a huge amount of life-points and that creep's monster cuts all of Jaden's monster's power in half!”
Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with an evil sly smile, “I'll end my turn with one face-down card!”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 2650
Jaden: 1350
Jaden draws one card from his deck and he calls out, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll play my Silent Doom spell card! Now, I'll revive one monster from my graveyard in defense mode and I choose my Sparkman!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400-800/700) comes to the field in defense mode. Jaden then puts one card on his duel disk, causing it to wildly spark, and yells out, “Next, I'll sacrifice my three monsters to summon another of my God Cards! The Winged Dragon of Ra!” The three monsters vanish in golden flames and they transform into a huge golden sphere in the sky. Jaden then chants out, “Almighty protector of the sun and sky . . . I beg of thy . . . please heed my cry . . . unlock thyself from orb of light . . . and bring me victory in this victory . . . Envelope the desert with your glow . . . and cast your light upon my foe . . . unlock your powers from deep within . . . so that together we may . . . I beseech thee . . . grace our humble game . . . but first, I shall . . . call out thy name . . . Winged Dragon of Ra! Okay, buddy, come on out!” The sphere opens up to reveal the Winged Dragon of Ra (3350/2750-1675/1375) comes to the field in attack mode.
Yami Marik yells out, evilly, “Ha! That pathetic creature doesn't scare me! And now, thanks to my Wicked God, it is even weaker!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Not for long, Marik! I play the Winged Dragon of Ra's God Phoenix ability!” Yami Marik gives a snarl and Jaden calls out, with a sly grin, “I give up one grand to destroy all monsters on your side of the field!” Jaden groans as his energy is drained as he loses 1000 life-points, the Winged Dragon of Ra transforms into its Phoenix Mode, and gives out a mighty screech of power it slams into the field destroying The Wicked Dread-Root. The Winged Dragon of Ra returns to Jaden's side of the field and its stats return to 3350/2750!
Atem says, with a sly grin, “With that Wicked God gone, Marik doesn't have any to defend himself and the Winged Dragon of Ra has regained all of its power.”
Jaden calls out, with a sly grin, “Okay, Winged Dragon of Ra, let's end this duel! God Blaze Cannon!” The Winged Dragon of Ra fires a sphere of golden solar flames at Yami Marik.
However, Yami Marik pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, with an evil sly grin, “Your monster is nothing! I play my trap to defense myself! Soul Resurrection!” Yami Marik's face-down card is revealed to be the Soul Resurrection trap card and Yami Marik says, with a sly grin, “Thanks to this card, I can summon one Normal monster from my grave in defense mode! So, my Sparkman comes back to defense me!” Soon after, a black and gold version of Jaden's Elemental Hero Sparkman (1600/1400) comes to the field in defense mode. The Winged Dragon of Ra's attack slams into him and destroys him, but since it was in defense mode, Yami Marik doesn't lose any life-points.
Jaden puts two cards in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a plain tone, “I'll throw down two face-downs and end my turn.”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 2650

Yami Marik draws one card from his deck and says, with an evil sly smile, “And I'll end you, boy!” Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, with an evil sly smile, “Next, I play my Dark Spell Regeneration! Thanks to this card, I can play one card a spell card in the grave for one turn! And I choose Card of Sanctity! Now, we both draw from our decks until we have six cards in our hands!” Jaden and Yami Marik draws from their decks until they have six cards in their hands, Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and he says, with a sly grin, “Now, I play my Junk Dealer spell card! This card allows me to revive two monsters from my grave as long as I cut their attack points in half! So, I revive two of my Plasma Eels!” Soon after, two of his Plasma Eels (250/1200 X 2) come back to the field in defense mode, Yami Marik puts one more card in the spell/trap slots, and he yells out, seriously, “Next, I play my Autonomous Action Unit spell card! I give up fifteen hundred life-points to summon one monster from your graveyard and I choose your Elemental Hero Avian!” Soon after, Yami Marik gives a slight groan as he loses 1500 life-points while Elemental Hero Avian (1000/1000) appears on his side of the field in attack mode.
Tea asks, perplexed, “I don't get it. Why would Marik's dark side summon those three monsters to the field? They are weaker than Jaden's God Card!”
Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Simple. He is going to summon his final Wicked God to the field.” All of Jaden's friends and allies, expect for Yeshua, gasp in shock.
Yami Marik calls out, darkly, “That's right, boy!” Yami Marik puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, darkly, “Now, I sacrifice my three monsters to summon the final Wicked God Card! The Wicked Eraser!” Yami Marik's three monsters vanish, they turn into pure darkness, and the darkness comes together and they form into The Wicked Eraser (?/?), a huge creature as long and as large as Slifer the Sky Dragon with a grey sneak like body, with a horned head, and black demonic wings, comes to the field in attack mode. Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “And my monster gains one thousand attack and defense points equal to the number of cards on your side of the field and I count three! So, my Wicked God has three thousand attack and defense points!” The Wicked Eraser's stats rise from 0/0 to 3000/3000!
Jaden says, with a serious tone, “But it's still weaker than my monster!”
Yami Marik puts one card in the spell/trap slots, a hologram of a spell card with a picture of huge behemoth monster appears on the field, and Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “I play a special spell card! Evolution of God! With this spell card, my Wicked God gains one thousand attack and defense points as long as this card is equipped to it! Normally, spell cards like this wouldn't work on my Wicked God, but this card was specially creatures like him!”
Everyone gasps in shock and Atem yells out, stunned, “A spell card made for God Cards?!” The Wicked Eraser's stats rise from 3000/3000 to 4000/4000!
Alexis says, worriedly, “Oh no! If this hits, Jaden is finished!”
Yami Marik yells out, with an evil sly smile, “Indeed! Now, say goodbye to your boyfriend! Wicked Eraser eliminates his creature and the rest of his life-points!” The Wicked Eraser fires a powerful dark beam of energy at Jaden's Winged Dragon of Ra.
Jaden discards one card from his hand and calls out, “I don't think so, Marik!” Just then an image of a female monster that looks similar to Sailor Moon in her classic uniform, expect her hair is silver with ruby spherical jewels in her hair, golden bodysuit, silver gloves, and silver high-heeled boots, appears in front of the attack and negates it.
Yami Marik yells out, shocked, “What in the name of Ra was that?! Why was my Wicked God's attack negated?!”
Jaden says, with a sly grin, “That was the special ability of my newest Elemental Hero! Elemental Hero Starlight Moon! A new Elemental Hero based off my famous sister!” Just then a card comes out of Jaden's graveyard, Jaden displays it to be a monster card with the picture of the female monster similar to `Classic' Sailor Moon, Elemental Hero Starlight Moon, a six star monster with 2200/2000 stats, and Jaden says, with a sly grin, “Thanks to this new hero, when I discard her from my hand to the graveyard when my monsters or I are attacked, I can reduce the damage from the attack to zero!”
Yami Marik says, with an annoyed tone, “You've saved yourself for now, boy!”
Current Score:
Yami Marik: 1150
Jaden: 350
Jaden thinks in his mind, with a sly smile, “Thanks, mom! You gave me this card based on my sister! Now, I know that Serena's support and spirit are always with me along with my friends!” Jaden draws one card from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, with a sly smile, “Sweet! I play my Fusion Recovery! This card allows me to bring one Polymerization and one Fusion-Material monster back from my graveyard! Soon after, Polymerization spell card and Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) come back from Jaden's graveyard and he puts them into his hand. Jaden puts one more card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play my Monster Reborn!

Yami Marik says, with an evil sly grin, “Ha! You fool! That card will only be around for one turn and that creature only strength my Wicked God! So, why would you bring it back?!” Yami Marik gasps in shock as he realizes something and he exclaims, stunned, “Unless . . .!”
Jaden puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he calls out, with a sly smile, “That's right! I play Polymerization!” Jaden displays his Slifer the Sky Dragon (X000/X000) God card, the monster appears on the field, and Jaden calls out, “Now, I fuse my three Egyptian Gods together! Okay, guys, unite!” Soon after, as Jaden discards the three God Cards to the graveyard, the three of them glow in a bright light, Jaden puts a fusion monster card from his fusion deck on his duel disk, and Jaden yells out, strongly, “Okay, come on down! The Creator of Light!” Soon after, Horakhti, the Creator of Light (10,000/10,000) comes to the field in attack mode.
Yami Marik yells out, in disbelief, “No, this can't be! I've had this duel won!”
Jaden puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, strongly, “Not for long! I summon my Elemental Hero Wildheart in attack mode!” Soon after, Elemental Hero Wildheart (1500/1600) comes to the field in attack mode. Jaden then yells out, strongly, “Now, Creator of Light, destroy all of his monsters! Sublime Light, Djeseru!” The Creator of Light blazes golden light onto the field and Yami Marik yells out in shock as his final Wicked God was destroyed. Jaden says, with a serious tone, “And since he is gone, you are defenseless! Wildheart, end this duel and attack his life-points directly! Wild Slash!” Wildheart leaps at Yami Marik and slashes him in the chest giving him a nasty gash in his chest while Yami Marik groans as he loses 1500 life-points, ending this duel.
Final Score:
Yami Marik: 0
Jaden: 350
As the final holograms fade away, Jaden falls to one knee in exhaustion and Kagome yells out, concerned tone, “Are you okay, Jay?!”
Joey says, with a sly smile, “Yeah! He just won the duel!”
Jaden says, plainly, “That's game, Marik.”
Yami Marik, as the shadows start to swallow him and his Rare Hunters, yells out, in reply with a dark sly grin, “For now, boy! But remember, I came back from the shadows before and I can do it again! You might have beaten my Wicked God, but they have proven just a match for your God Cards! I may have underestimated your power, Prince Judai, but believe me, I will be back and the power of the Pharaoh that you now possess will be mine . . .!!” Yami Marik laughs evilly as he and his Rare Hunters fade away and shadows vanish, returning the field to normal.
The rest of our heroes and heroines run up to Jaden, Alexis knees down in front of him, and she asks, concerned tone, “Jay, are you okay?”
Jaden says, with his usual smile, “Yep! Don't worry, Alexis, I'll be just fine!”
Tea asks, curiously, “Have we seen the last of that freak?”
Yeshua says, in a plain and logical tone, “Doubtful, Tea. We can assume if he returned from the Shadow Realm twice before and as long as the imbalance exists, he can keep coming back to challenge Jaden for the power of the Pharaoh, the Egyptian God Cards, and the Millennium Puzzle.”
Jasmine says, drolly, “Just great. As if we didn't have enough problems.”
Tyranno says, plainly, “Well, he retreated for now, but we had better be careful. I wonder how Private Tsukino and her unit are doing on their mission.”
Jaden says, with a plain tone, “You and me both, Hassleberry.”
Alexis says, with a smile on her lips, “I'm sure that Serena is just fine, Jay! She is a lot stronger than she was before this whole mess started and she has become a stronger fighter and more mature than she was before!”
Jaden says, with a smile, “You're right, Lex! But since she is my sis, I tend to worry.”
Alexis tells Jaden, with a caring smile, “I know how you feel, Jay!”
Kagome says, with a smile, “Let's get some rest for awhile. We've been giving those white dorks a headache and we've stopped the dark side of Marik's plans for now.”
Mindy says, with a smile, “You're right, Kagome! Let's go!” Soon after, our group of heroes and heroines head off into the distance to get some rest for Jaden after his deadly rematch with Yami Marik, but Jaden can't help to wonder about his `royal sister' down in Demon World.
(Returning to Demon World; A short time soon after)
Back in the Makai, we find our heroes and heroines and their demon guides going down a long tunnel that they have been following for awhile, but soon, they find a light coming out of the end of the tunnel.
Sailor Jupiter says, with a sigh, “Finally! We're getting out of here!”
Sailor Juno says, annoyed, “Yeah, Jupiter, no joke! I thought that this place would never end and it is boring!”
Sailor Vesta says, with a serious tone, “So, what are we waiting for?!” Soon after, our heroes and heroines and their demon guides rush for the exit of the cave, but when they come out of the other side, they gasp in shock and amazement at what they find in front of them.
Sailor Neptune yells out, amazed, “Incredible!”
Sailor Venus states, awe-struck, “Are you seeing what I'm seeing guys?!” What our heroes and heroines are looking at is a huge and prosperous city similar to ancient Egypt and the ancient Hittite empire of the past down from the cliff where the cave exit was.
Touya calls out, amazed, “Incredible! I've never seen a city like it before! It looks so new, but it also looks so ancient!”
Shizuki says, with a serious tone, “It is styled in the form of ancient Egypt and the ancient Hittite empire of the Human World!”
Sailor Mercury nods her head and says, also awe-struck, “Yes, Shizuki is right! This is so incredible!”
Sailor Juno says, amazed, “I'll say!”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon gives the city an intense glare, Sailor Mini-Moon sees her future mom's serious look, and Sailor Mini-Moon asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, concerned, “Are you okay, mommy?”
When everyone looks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon, she says, seriously, “I can feel it! I don't know how, but I know that's where we will find the Yu-Zen!”
Sailor Mars asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, curiously, “Are you sure?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head and replies, with a serious tone, “Yes, I can feel it! Somehow I can sense my demon ancestor. She is there.”
Sailor Mercury is scanning the area with her computer and visor and she says, seriously, “I think that Sailor Moon is right! The Demon Energy being produced down there is similar to the Demon Energy that Sailor Moon is producing now.”
Touya says, with a serious and plain tone, “So, it is logical to assume that this is the lost civilization of the Yu-Zen.”
Chu says, with a sly smile, “Not anymore, mates! Because we found it!”
Sailor Ceres says, with a serious tone, “However, we have to be careful. I don't think that they've had contact with outside for many centuries even by other demons.”
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, “Sailor Ceres is right. We need to find Sailor Moon's demon ancestor, but we must use caution.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “Let's go! However, remember what Sailor Ceres and Tuxedo Mask said, we need to be careful.”
The rest of our group say in unison, plainly, “Right!” Soon after, our heroes and heroines along with their demon guides head down in their own ways towards the city to find Valkyrie Sailor Moon's demon ancestor and some answers.
(Inside of the Spirit World; On the meanwhile)
Shortly thereafter, we return to the Spirit World as we find our former Spirit Detective team joined by Keiko AKA Sailor Universe fighting against Koemna's father, King Emma, but they are not faring well. Sailor Galaxy hits him with some Shotgun blasts, Solar Sun hits him with some punches and kicks in his arms and chest, and Kurama hits him in the legs with his Rose Whip, but with his large size and strong spiritual powers, King Emma shrugs off the attacks like they were nothing.
Solar Sun yells out, in his usual tone, “What the fuck?! How are we supposed to force this guy down off his throne if he can shrug off our attacks like that?!”
King Emma tells Solar Sun, “Simple, Yusuke Urameshi. My spiritual aura and large statue gives me incredible endurance so I can take hit after hit and not lost energy or get seriously injured. You will need to use more energy than those attacks to even scratch me!”
Hiei yells out, with a serious tone while gathering dark flames in his right arm, “Well, allow me to try!”
“Dragon of the Darkness Flame!”
Hiei then launches the black flames of the Underworld right at King Emma's head, but the ruler of the Spirit World just grabs the black flame dragon with his right hand and manages to snuff it out through get somewhat burned in the process.
Hiei yells out, in a rare stunned tone, “Impossible!”
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “Your mastery of the dark dragon is impressive, fire demon, but not impressive enough.” King Emma then flicks his fingers at Hiei, creating huge amounts of spirit energy bullets, and Hiei barely manages to get out of the way, but the shockwave sends him flying into the air. However, he manages to back-flip back to the floor on his feet, safely.
Sailor Galaxy yells out, angrily, “Oh, yeah, pal! Try me on for size!”
“Galaxy Aurora Dragon!”
Soon after, a huge aurora colored Dragon appears behind Sailor Galaxy and she launches right at King Emma's right shoulder. It slams into him and he winches in pain as the attack burns through his uniform and gives him a slight burn.
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “How annoying.” King Emma then swats Sailor Galaxy with his large right arm like fly and Sailor Galaxy screams out as she slams into the opposite wall really hard, giving a small crater in the wall that she landed, and knocking her senseless for a moment.
Botan, Kurama, Solar Sun, and Sailor Universe yell out in unison and in horror, “Kari!”
Solar Sun yells out, angrily, “Okay, asshole, you are really going to get it!” Solar Sun gathers spirit energy into his right index finger and prepares for his classic attack.
“Spirit Gun!”
Solar Sun fires five energy bullets that slam into King Emma's left cheek, slightly burning it, and King Emma gives Solar Sun a look of an annoyance.
King Emma says, with a serious tone, “You are nothing, but a fly to me, Urameshi. Your attacks need to be stronger than that. Your demon father, King Raizen, when he was at full power was more of a threat to me than you are.”
Solar Sun calls out, strongly, “We'll see about that!”
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “We shall when I crush in my hands.” King Emma, with incredible speed, reaches for Solar Sun and tries to crush him in his hand and Solar Sun barely manages to dodge his attacks. Sailor Universe flies up to King Emma's face and gathers energy for her attack.
Sailor Universe yells out, strongly, “Leave him alone!” Sailor Universe sends a golden sphere of energy into King Emma's face, giving him a small burn on his nose.
King Emma stops his attack on Solar Sun, looks at Sailor Universe with annoyance, and he says, plainly, “You dare challenge me, Princess Sakura. You shall know the price for your foolish.” King Emma then prepares to grab Sailor Universe into his right hand and crush her.
Solar Sun yells out, shocked, “No! Leave her alone, asshole!” Solar Sun rushes her and pushes her out of the way, but he gets caught in King Emma's large hand and starts to cry out in pain as he is getting crushed.
Kurama yells out, shocked, “Yusuke!”
Kuwabara shouts out, horrified, “Urameshi!”
King Emma says, with a plain tone, “You are just as weak as the Moon Queen and your daughter and you are the son of the Sun King? It is finally time for you to learn your place in this universe, my boy.” King Emma then starts to crush Solar Sun with incredible strength and he cries out in pain as he is getting crushed with his armor starting to crack.
Kuwabara calls out, horrified, “Get out of there!”
Sailor Universe calls out, horrified, “Yusuke!” Sailor Universe thinks in her mind, horrified, “Yusuke had to save me again and now, his own life is in danger! I can't let him die! I've got to try something! I lost him once and I can't lose him again! I won't!” As Sailor Universe's mind races, she can feel a great pull from inside of her and she starts to `grab' that `pull' and pull on it more and more.
Kuwabara yells out, seriously, “I'm coming!” Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei charge in to get Solar Sun out of King Emma's grip, but King Emma just stomps his foot causing a strong enough shockwave to send Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei flying across the ground before they land on their backs hard.
King Emma tells Koemna, plainly, “Now, do you see my son? Sometimes you need to do what it takes to ensure peace and order for the universe.” King Emma then increases his grip on Solar Sun and he cries out in greater pain.
Sailor Universe gains tears in her eyes and she yells out, “Let him go!” King Emma ignores Sailor Universe and continues to crush Solar Sun causing him to cry out in pain even louder. Sailor Universe then cries out, strongly, “LET HIM GO!!!” Just then Sailor Universe blazes in golden light and forcing everyone, including the recently recovered Sailor Galaxy, to close their eyes.
Botan asks, perplexed, “What's going on?!”
Koemna says, with a serious tone, “It's Keiko! She's tapping into the deeper portions of her Sailor Scout powers!” Inside of Sailor Universe's mind, we find her surround by golden light and wondering where she was.
Sailor Universe asks, perplexed, “Where am I?”
Just then a female voice similar to Sailor Universe's expect for being deeper and more mature sounding says, with a sly smile, “We are inside your mind, Keiko!” Just then Sailor Universe looks to see a princess version of herself in front of her. `Princess Keiko' is the same age as our Fire Princess of Obelisk Blue, her brown hair is flowing down like Rei's hair up to her buttocks, she has a beautiful golden crown with beautiful jewels adorned all over it on her scalp, a golden sideways infinity symbol on her forehead, Keiko's brown eyes, sparkling ruby red lips, and she is wearing a beautiful sparkling golden and fiery red royal gown similar to Princess Serenity's gown with jewels adorned on every bit of the fabric, her fingernails are a beautiful fiery red, and she has rainbow colored high-heeled shoes on her feet hidden under the gown.
Sailor Universe asks her, “Who are you?”
Sailor Universe's `royal counterpart' replies, with a smile, “I'm you, silly.”
Sailor Universe gasps and says, seriously, “You must be my past self, Princess Sakura!”
Princess Sakura replies, with a smile, “That's right, Keiko. Your need to help the one that you love brought you here. Now, it is time for you to gain the power of the legendary Sailor Soldier.”
Sailor Universe asks, stunned, “You mean . . . I can become a Valkyrie Sailor Scout?”
Princess Sakura nods her head and states, with a smile, “Of course. However, you can't just desire the power, it has to come naturally by some kind of great need. And your need to save the one that you love activated it. Are you ready to do what it takes to save Yusuke?”
Sailor Universe says, strongly, “Yes! Yes, I do! Yusuke has always been saving me from danger even just before he became a spirit detective! I've always been used as bait to lead him to the slaughterhouse and I'm sick and tried of it! I want to help Yusuke and not be a burden to him even through he says that I'm not! I need to help Yusuke and my friends no matter what it takes! I don't what happens to me as long as I can help Yusuke and protect all that I care about!” Just then Sailor Universe's brooch glows with a bright light and transforms into a brand new brooch. Sailor Universe's new brooch is a fiery golden-reddish heart brooch with a large rainbow colored jewel in the shape of a Pegasus attached to the front of the brooch, two silver swords cross the center of the Pegasus jewel, and the symbols of the golden crescent moon, the golden sun, the ancient symbol of Earth, the other planets in the solar system, the twelve Zodiac constellations in their respective colors, and golden sideway infinity symbol in the center of the crossed swords.
Princess Sakura says, with a smile, “I know that you could do it, Keiko. Your will and need to protect the people that you care about and the boy that you love without caring for any consequence to yourself harness the Valkyrie Sailor Scout power. Now, all you need to do is call out `Twilight Valkyrie Universe Power, Make-up!' and you will be transformed. Good luck, Keiko.”
Sailor Universe says, with a smile, “Thank you, Princess Sakura.”
Princess Sakura says, with a smile, “No, there is no need. You did all yourself. One day, you and I will become one as Yusuke and my love, Prince Sasuke, will become one and you will regain your deepest power and title as Supreme Princess and Protector of the Universe. Good luck.” Sailor Universe nods her head and she prepares to transform.
“Twilight Valkyrie Universe Power, Make-up!”
Sailor Universe's new brooch opens up, blazing with golden and rainbow power, it transforms into a huge Pegasus, as her old fuku rips away, and the Pegasus releases stars, comets, and planets that turn into streams of light that wrap around Sailor Universe's body as she gains her new Sailor fuku. Back to King Emma's throne room, the golden light of the room starts to fade as Sailor Universe's transformation ends. When everyone looks at where Sailor Universe is, they gasp to see her in a brand new Sailor fuku.
Sailor Universe's brand new sailor fuku consists of her head and scalp covered in a golden armored helmet that covers most of her head, expect for her eyes, nose, and mouth, there is one small rainbow angel wing attached to each side of the helmet covering her cheekbones, her hair flows out of the back of her helmet, her forehead still has the golden sideways infinity symbol on her forehead, ruby red colored lips, her neck has a silver metal choker with golden sideways infinity symbol jewel with a black star jewel and a golden star jewel on each side of the infinity symbol jewel and all three jewels are in the center of the choker, a rainbow planet-shaped locket is attached below the center of the choker with a beautiful rainbow colored diamond in the center of the locket with a golden sideways infinity symbol imprinted in the center of the diamond, her chest and body are covered in tight fitting golden armor, showing off the shapes and curves of her body as well as her bust up to the point just before it becomes unsightly, her new transformation brooch is in the center of the bust armor of her armored chest, imprinted in the center of her golden armor is a rainbow colored Pegasus with a golden sideways infinity symbol in the center of the Pegasus imprinted in her chest armor, her arms are covered in a tight fitting dark violet latex that's fingerless and is connected to a latex bodysuit of the same color well-hidden under the armored bodysuit, she has silver colored shoulder pads similar to Magnamon's shoulder pads with a rainbow Pegasus that has a golden sideways infinity symbol on its body imprinted on each shoulder pad, her hands and lower arms are covered in golden armored gantlets covering the latex that are fingerless with a silver cross jewels with a rainbow diamond in the center of each of silver cross jewel in the backhand portion of each gantlet with two golden angel wings attached to the sides of the gantlets, she has dark blue armored elbow pads covering her elbows over the latex, on her latex covered her upper arms, she has silver metallic armbands with a golden sideways infinity symbol in center with two rainbow angel wings attached to the them, her exposed fingernails are dark violet in color with golden sideways infinity symbols on each fingernail, she has a golden armored mini-skirt that's the same size, length, and width of her original cloth mini-skirt, but this mini-skirt is adorned with all types of jewels, across her waist is a dark brown armored belt with a crystal silver diamond in the shape of a eight pointed star with the golden sideways infinity symbol in the center of the diamond as the belt buckle, on the right side of the belt there is a black sheath for a scared sword with a silver hilt, rainbow angel wings as the sides of the hilt, the golden sideway infinity symbol on the top center portion of the hilt, and a silver blade with all types of ancient ruins and symbols engraved on the blade, on the left side of the belt contains an open sheath for a golden version of the Magi-Staff used by the Mystic Force Power Rangers, but with a beautiful rainbow colored diamond on the top of staff with the golden sideways infinity symbol in the center of the diamond and a dark blue heart jewel on the top center portion of the staff, she as black armored kneepads on her knees, the whole of her lower legs are covered in dark blue high-heeled boots with four small rainbow angel wings attached to each heel and the heels on these armored boots are at least twice the length of the heels as Eternal Sailor Moon's high-heeled boots, the toe area of her high-heeled armored boots have the golden sideways infinity symbols imprinted on them, and coming out of her back are eight beautiful huge and fluffy golden angel wings.
Sailor Galaxy states, amazed, “Keiko?”
Koemna says, awe-struck, “I don't know how, but Keiko gained her Valkyrie Sailor Scout form!”
Sailor Universe says, with a proud smile on her lips, “That's Twilight Valkyrie Sailor Universe, Koemna.” Sailor Universe then looks at King Emma with a serious glare in her eyes.
King Emma tells Sailor Universe, plainly, “Do you believe that you can beat me, Sailor Universe?”
Sailor Universe says, with a serious tone, “I don't `believe', King Emma! I know that I can! As long as you threaten the people that I love and care for, I know that I will beat you!” Sailor Universe then summons a large sphere of golden energy in her two hands.
“Universe Big Bang Crusher!”
Sailor Universe launches the sphere into King Emma's face and it causes a large explosion causing King Emma to cry out in pain as the attack badly burns his face and temporary blinds him causing him to release Solar Sun. He limps to float away from King Emma.
Sailor Universe goes over to Solar Sun and she asks, worriedly, “Yusuke, are you okay?”
Solar Sun says, wearily, “Yeah, I'm okay. For the first time, Kei, you saved me. You were awesome.”
Sailor Universe says, with a smile, “Thanks, Yusuke.” Sailor Universe then sends energy into Solar Sun and he becomes perplexed at what she is doing.
Solar Sun asks Sailor Universe, “Keiko, what the heck are you doing?!” Solar Sun feels stronger and his wounds healed much to his amazement.
Sailor Universe says, with a sly smile, “Helping you out, Yusuke.”
When Solar Sun is fully healed, he says, amazed, “Whoa! Remind never ever to get you pissed off!”
Sailor Universe says, with a sly grin, “You know it, buster!” As King Emma struggles to regain his balance and regain eyesight, Sailor Galaxy floats up to them.
Sailor Galaxy says, with a serious tone, “Kei might have gained an upgrade, but how do we beat Koemna's father?”
Solar Sun says, as his body's spirit energy starts to mix with his red demon energy and transform into his version of Sacred Energy, “We kick his fat ass across the universe!” Solar Sun gathers his Sacred Energy into his right index finger and prepares to fire one final attack.
“Spirit Gun!”
Solar Sun fires a sphere of Sacred Energy right at King Emma and he is able to see only the attack slam into him. He cries out in extreme pain and agony as he attack plasters him and creating a strong explosion where Sailor Universe quickly moves to teleport herself, Solar Sun, and Sailor Galaxy to the others. Once there, she creates a powerful force-field to protect them from the explosion and shockwave. When the explosion dies down, there is a lot of dust and smoke. And when that clears, they see King Emma, his form badly smoking and his exposed skin burned with blood coming out of his mouth and arms, and his form is quaking in weakness.
King Emma then says, wearily, “But how . . . is this possible . . .?” King Emma then collapses onto the ground on his back creating an imprint of him on the floor when his form slams into the floor and his eyes close.
Botan says, stunned, “Yusuke . . . you . . . you . . .”
Koemna says, plainly, “It was . . . the only way. My father would have never given up until every bit of life left him. His throne matter more than others and now, he paid the price.”
Kurama says, with a plain tone, “He isn't dead.”
Koemna says, plainly, “True. However, he is finished. Now, it is time to end this.”
Sailor Galaxy asks, with a curious tone, “What do you mean?”
Koemna says, plainly, “I know place that we can put him until he can be tried for his crimes . . . but that trial will never take place, however.”
Hiei says, with a sly grin, “Ah, I see. I never knew that you can be so devious, Koemna.”
Koemna says, plainly, “My father made one mistake. He underestimated all of us, including me. I will do what it takes to protect the balance of this universe, but I will not do the things that he did. However, it doesn't mean that I will do something give him to protect the innocent.”
Kuwabara asks, curiously, “So, does that mean we win?”
Kurama says, with a nod, “Yes, we did.”
Sailor Universe says, seriously, “I hope that Serena and the others are doing all right.”
Solar Sun says, with a confident tone, “Something tells me that girl and her friends are just fine.”
(Returning to the Makai; Sometime soon after)
Back in the Makai, we find Valkyrie Sailor Moon, all of her fellow Sailor Senshi, including her future daughter, Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon's personal Pegasus, Selena, and the groups' six demon guides are at the edge of the city causing female Yu-Zen, Succ-Zen, who have similar demonic markings on their faces and hair color as Valkyrie Sailor Moon, to look at them while the male Yu-Zen, the Incu-Zen, with black hair that has dark blue and blood red highlights and the same dark blue demonic markings on their faces as their female counterparts, to look at them with great amazement and awe.
Rinku asks, curiously, “Why are they looking at us like that?”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “We must be the first outsiders that these people have seen in a long time . . . if ever.”
Sailor Mini-Moon asks, curiously, “What should we do now?”
Sailor Saturn asks, perplexed, “I wish that I knew, Rini.” Just then everyone hears footsteps coming towards them and they see one thousand Incu-Zen wearing tight fitting armor similar to the armies of the ancient Roman Empire are walking towards them.
Sailor Jupiter says, seriously, “Watch out, girls! We've got trouble!” Our heroes and heroines get into defense positions with the Sailor Scouts of the Moon Kingdom staying in front of Tuxedo Mask and Valkyrie Sailor Moon while the Sailor Quartet surround Sailor Mini-Moon as the soldiers stop in front of them. The soldiers soon gain powerful demonic aura even through a light red aura is coming through all of them.
Shizuki says, plainly, “Yep! They are S-class demons all right.”
Touya says, with a serious tone, “They are pretty much in the levels of mid-S class demons.”
Sailor Mars says, seriously, “Those are real powerful demonic auras. Be careful, everyone.”
One of the soldiers, the leader with wearing special garments that shows him to be a leader, steps forward and says, in a strong and plain tone, “What business do the guardians of the Moon Princess have here in our kingdom?”
Sailor Venus asks, perplexed, “Huh? You know of us?”
The leader of the soldiers says, with a serious tone, “We are the Yu-Zen, a demon clan that has existed for many millennia since the start of man in the Human World, and we know well about the Silver Millennium, the Lunarian Kingdom, the Moon Princess, and all of you, her guardians. We also know that evil witch, Queen Beryl of the Negaverse, destroyed the Silver Millennium ages ago and Queen Serenity sacrificed her life to seal them away. Unlike humans, the knowledge about you has not been lost to us and it is cherished knowledge for our people respect the great Queen Serenity for she brought peace to the universe and knew the true honor of honor like us, warriors of the Yu-Zen.”
Sailor Pluto then steps forward and says, with a serious tone, “Then you know about me, the guardian of time.”
The leader of the soldier says, with a nod, “Yes. And with the help of our great seers, we know that princess, her prince, and her court, expect for you, have been reborn as humans in the Human World in this modern age. The Moon Princess has become a Sailor Soldier known as Sailor Moon, has she not?”
Sailor Neptune whispers to Sailor Uranus, plainly, “They must have some powerful magic under their control, Uranus.”
Sailor Uranus nods her head and replies, in a whisper, “Yeah.”
Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon with her head down covering her face, steps forward, and she says, seriously, “I'm Sailor Moon, the reincarnation of Princess Serenity.”
Sailor Mars asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, seriously, “Hey, Meatball Head, what are you doing?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “I know what I'm doing, Pyro!”
The leader of the soldiers looks curiously at Valkyrie Sailor Moon's black hair with its highlights and he tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Princess Serenity, what business does you and your guardians have with us?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “I'm here looking for someone. Someone very important.”
The leader of the soldiers asks, curiously, “And why would you find this person here?”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, plainly, “For one reason only . . .” Valkyrie Sailor Moon removes her helmet and lifts her causing the soldiers to gasp to see her demonic markings on her face. Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “To find my demon ancestor, who is one of your people!”
One soldier yells out, stunned, “The Moon Princess, reincarnated as one of us?!”
Another soldier calls out, amazed, “Unbelievable!”
A third soldier shouts out, seriously, “No, this is some trick!”
Just then a beautiful female voice calls out, “I can assure you that this is no trick! Princess Serenity, in her new life as an Earthling, has our blood in her veins!” Everyone looks to source of the voice to see a beautiful female Yu-Zen walking towards them, she has flowing black hair with dark violet and blood red highlights, beautiful and mysterious demonic dark violet eyes, she has a dark silver tiara-like crown across her forehead, she has the same demonic markings that Valkyrie Sailor Moon has across her face, mysterious ruby red lips, her skin was perfectly tan, smooth, and silky, she wearing a sleeveless dark grey dress adorned with all types and hugging her body closing showing plenty of the perfect curves and lines on her body, her exposed arms had the same type of skin and similar demonic markings over much of them, she had dark violet claws as fingernails, and on her feet, she has black high-heeled shoes.
The leader of the soldiers says, with a surprised tone, “Queen Zelna!” All of the Yu-Zen, including the soldiers, bows in front of her.
The beautiful female Yu-Zen, Queen Zelna, moves with grace and beauty and she says, plainly, “Rise, my people.”
Sailor Saturn says, amazed, “For a demon, she is very beautiful.”
Sailor Pluto says, seriously, “She is indeed one of grace and beautiful, but I can see great wisdom in her eyes and sense great power in her body.”
Queen Zelna goes over to the group, does a gentle bow, and she says, with a kind smile, “Welcome to my kingdom, warrior of the Earth and Moon, and their allies. I've been waiting for you.”
Sailor Jupiter asks, curiously, “Waiting for us?!”
Queen Zelna says, with a serious tone, “Yes, I have. Not only I am the female ruler of this kingdom, I also one of the greatest mystic and female warrior of my kingdom. I have been watching you with my powers as a seer.”
Tuxedo Mask says, seriously, “Then you must know that we are trying to find Sailor Moon's demon ancestor.”
Queen Zelna says, with a nod, “Yes, I do. I know that your princess has been reborn into an Earth ancestry that has a Yu-Zen as an ancestor. However, you do not have to look far for your princess' ancestor here.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “You do? Where is she?”
Queen Zelna points to herself and she says, seriously, “You are looking at her, Princess Serenity. Forty generations ago, before I became Queen, I feel in love with a human male, mated with him, and bore him a child. A child that became part of the Tsukino family bloodline and your Earth bloodline, princess.”
Our group gasps in shock and surprise and Valkyrie Sailor Moon yells out, shocked, “You?! You're my demon ancestor?!”
Queen Zelna nods her head and says, plainly, “Yes, I am. And you are wondering why I did what I did. It is a long explanation, but for one, I can't let one of my bloodline to get harm by the vile tools of that tyrant, King Emma of the Spirit World. And two, I could let the daughter of the best friend that I know be destroyed either.”
Sailor Mercury asks, curiously, “Best friend?”
Queen Zelna says, with a serious tone, “Yes, over five millennia ago, I stopped a creature that you would know as a youma from killing a young princess of the moon before she became queen. The youma tried to sneak attack her with her back turned while she was trying to help innocent people. This dishonorable act couldn't go unpunished. So, I showed them what cowards like those creatures deserve: A painful death. And in doing so, I gained the friendship of this princess. The Princess who became the Queen of the Moon Kingdom, Queen Serenity, herself.”
Our heroes and heroines gasped in shock and Valkyrie Sailor Moon yells out, “You are the demon that saved my mother when she was young!”
Queen Zelna nods her head and says, seriously, “Yes, I am.”
Sailor Venus says, stunned, “That would make you . . .!”
Queen Zelna interrupts and says, plainly, “Yes, I am over five millennia in age and I have kept my youth. A gift from the Moon Goddess and the Silver Crystal. I didn't know why until I had found out that Queen Serenity's daughter was reincarnated as my descendant. Then it became clear why I was gift with this enhanced life and youth.”
Sailor Mercury asks, curiously, “Why is that?”
Queen Zelna says, seriously, “It was no accident that your princess was reborn into my bloodline. It is my duty to help her on the next phase of her journey and to prepare her for the final battle with the infamous evil that my people hate so much: The Light of Destruction.”
Her people gasped in shock and the leader of the soldier says, with a snarl, “My queen, is this true? The Light of Destruction has returned?!”
Queen Zelna nods her head and says, seriously, “Yes, it has! The Light of Destruction possesses an innocent human named Sartorius and it is using him as its vessel to try and destroy all darkness in the universe, thus, destroy the balance of life and life itself! It has created a vile cult known as the Society of Light and used its evil people to turn innocent humans into its vile followers. The Moon Princess has suffered greatly by its vile work, but she possesses the power that we worship, the Darkness of Salvation, and she with four of the five other `Chosen Ones' in the prophecies beaten the Light of Destruction in battle!”
More gasps came from her people and one of the soldiers yells out, amazed, “The Light of Destruction beaten in battle other than the guardian of the human world, Yeshua?!”
Another soldier calls out, stunned, “They have the Darkness of Salvation, the great force that we worship?!”
Sailor Neptune says, with a serious tone, “They seem to know a lot about that alien freak and the Darkness of Salvation.”
Queen Zelna holds out her hands to calm her people down and she calls out, seriously, “Yes, they do! The Moon Princess welds the Darkness of Salvation in its vessel, the Black Crystal of Nemesis, and has used it to beat back the Light of Destruction before, but after his first defeat the Chosen One's hands, like a true coward, he ran away! Now, he hides in the vile followers that he has created and they are weakening before their mite! Since they weld the Darkness of Salvation and Sailor Moon is of my blood, she and all who come with her are to be treated as honored guests!” Her people bow their heads in respect for their Queen's decree. Queen Zelna tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “You and your friends must be tried for your long journey. I think that it is better to discuss at the palace where you can get food and rest. However, don't worry, unlike the Ma-zoku, who we were good allies too, we don't eat human flesh. Personally, we eat more human like foods. And there we can discuss something else as well.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “What?”
Queen Zelna says, with a serious tone, “You have welded the Darkness of Salvation to great effect, but in order to harness it to defeat that vile devil, the Light of Destruction, you must master another power.”
Sailor Pluto asks, curiously, “What other power do you speak of?”
Queen Zelna says, with a plain tone, “Why, the power that makes up your princess' very being . . . the light that's the opposite of the vile Light of Destruction and which brings life to the universe and balances out the Darkness of Salvation . . . The Light of Hope.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, surprised, “The Light of Hope?”
Queen Zelna nods her head and she says, “Yes. It is the power that makes up your very being and it courses through your very veins as much as your demon blood, human blood, and Lunarian blood. In order to use the Darkness of Salvation to its fullest, you must that power that is you, Princess Serenity.” Queen Zelna says, with a smile, “However, I think it is for the best that we discuss this indoor and in private.”
Sailor Jupiter asks, curiously, “What do you think everyone?”
Sailor Uranus says, a bit nervously, “I don't know.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon steps forward and says, “I'm going.”
Everyone looks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon in shock and Sailor Mars yells out, seriously, “Hey, Sailor Moon, do you really know what you are getting into?!”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a smile and confident tone, “She won't hurt us! I can sense it! Plus, she was friends with my mom, Queen Serenity, and I'm of her blood now! She never hurt her own `daughter', demon or human! Family is family.”
Queen Zelna says, with a sly grin, “Indeed.”
Tuxedo Mask tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “And where you go, I will go without question, Sailor Moon. I'm not going to let you get hurt again.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon looks at Tuxedo Mask and tells him, lovingly, “Thank you, Tuxedo Mask!”
Sailor Mars says, seriously, “And we're your friends and guardians! There is no way in hell we're letting go in there alone!”
Sailor Mini-Moon says, strongly, “Same here!”
Sailor Ceres says, seriously, “Where our princess goes, the Sailor Quartet will follow!”
The rest of the Sailor Quartet replies in unison, “Right!”
Rinku asks, curiously, “Well, guys?”
Chu says, with a sly smile, “Well, mates, we've come this far! I say that we go all the way!”
Jin says, with his barely audible tone, “Aye, I'll say! This is starting to get really wiggity good!”
Shizuki says, with a sly grin, “Why not? It is not every day that you find a long lost demon civilization.”
Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “Please lead the way.”
Queen Zelna says, with a smile, “I see that you are resolved. Please follow me.” Soon after, Queen Zelna walks off towards the large Hittite like place in the center of the Yu-Zen city with the soldiers providing escort while our heroes and heroines follow the Yu-Zen queen. Queen Zelna thinks in her mind, seriously, “I just hope that you are ready for the trials and tests to come Princess Serenity. You and the other Chosen Duelists might have beaten the Light of Destruction, once, but that vile parasite won't take this defeat lying down! He will find a way to defeat you and even through you possess the great Darkness of Salvation, it might not be enough. You will need the power that's infused with the six Chosen Duelists as well as makes up you and your brother's, Prince Judai's, very being: The Light of Hope. I just pray to your mother's spirit and your guardian deity, Selene, that you can do this!” As Queen Zelna and our heroes and heroines continue on to the palace, the Yu-Zen queen if Valkyrie Sailor Moon can handle what's next for her while our heroes and heroines wonder what they are going to experience next . . .
Next time in Chapter 21: Trials of the Chosen Duelists: When our Sailor Scouts, Earth Prince, and demon guides arrive at the Yu-Zen palace, Valkyrie Sailor Moon's demon ancestor, the Yu-Zen Queen, discuss important matters with them. The group learns that our former Spirit Detective team manages to dethrone King Emma and installed Prince Koemna to the throne of ruler of Spirit World. This allows Yusuke, Hikari, and their friends to return back to Jaden and the others where they learn of each other's adventures. Reunited, Keiko and Yusuke, Jaden and Alexis, Kagome and Inuyasha, and Zane and Hikari have some `alone time' together. However, even through our heroes and heroines have other `problems', their main enemy is still the Light of Destruction possessed Sartorius and the Society of Light. Trying to gain at least one `Chosen Duelist', we sends Kagome's `former' friend, Ayumi, fully brainwashed against Kagome while Kagome's other `former' friend, Eri, is sent against Yusuke, fully brainwashed as well. With powerful new `White decks' under their control, they are a pretty strong force, but they might not be good enough to handle Kagome's and Yusuke's latest Shadow Games. On the meanwhile, Zane and Hikari are led into a trap by the SOL and Hikari and Zane have to duel in a tag-team Shadow Game against two expert tag-team SOL members. But they aren't the only ones in a tag-team Shadow Game since Jaden and Alexis are forced into their own tag-team Shadow Game against under two SOL members, whose decks are enhanced by the evil leader of the SOL. On the meanwhile, back in Demon World, Valkyrie Sailor Moon get the answers that they were looking for from the Yu-Zen queen and they learn more of the Yu-Zen, their culture, and their history . . . in more ways than one to some distain. However, when the explanations are over, Queen Zelna, explains about the tests that Valkyrie Sailor Moon must take to become stronger. They are three duels within a sacred chamber and Queen Zelna explains that in order to get the inner strength to harness her `Light of Hope' and greater strengths of the Darkness of Salvation, our Moon Princess must take these challenges. However, Queen Zelna warns that if she fails the test, she will be trapped in the chambers for all time. Valkyrie Sailor Moon, wanting to stop the evil of the Light of Destruction and protecting her friends, family, and the innocent people and creatures of the universe accepts the challenges. The first two duels proved to be pretty straightforward through it is something that Sailor Moon didn't expect in the form of her opponent, anyway, but the final duel is one that will shock her to the core because Sailor Moon must face down . . . an evil version of herself?! Whoa! What's going on here?! Well, you will have to find out on the next Darkness Moon! We will see you there!
