Yu-Gi-Oh GX Stars: Darkness Moon

 

Chapter 22: The Plots of Light and Darkness

 

(The late afternoon hours in the Makai; at the edge of the Yu-Zen Kingdom)

 

Returning to the realm of demons, we find all of our Sailor Scouts, in their Sailor Scout forms, Eternal Sailor Scout for Sailor Pluto and the Sailor Quartet, Eternal Twilight for nearly all the rest of the Sailor Scouts expect for one Moon Princess, and in Sailor Moon's case, Valkyrie Sailor Scout, our Earth Prince, riding on Valkyrie Sailor Moon's Pegasus, Selena, and our six demons that `guided' our Sailor Scouts through Demon World at the edge of another cave in the mountain range separating the kingdom of the Yu-Zen people.

 

Queen Zelna, with a group of loyal Yu-Zen soldiers stand with her, facing our heroes and heroines, and she tells them, “With Sailor Moon passing the test, her `inner strength' is even stronger and she has started to harness that power that makes up her very being. The Light of Hope and the Darkness of Salvation are two of the vital keys to ending the existence of the vile Light of Destruction, but you must know how to harness it correctly. However, I can say with great faith that you will be able to do it.”

 

Sailor Pluto tells Queen Zelna, with a kind tone, “Thank you for your kind words, Queen Zelna.”

 

Queen Zelna points to the cave in front of our heroes and heroines and she says, “This passage will lead you out of the mountain through an underground cave and it is far safer than the way you got in to our home.”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a plain tone, “I'll bet.”

 

Queen Zelna points to an area just a distance from the others and she asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Princess Serenity, a moment alone before you leave?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon shrugs her shoulders and replies, with a nod, “Sure.” Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Queen Zelna go over to the side some distance and Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks, curiously, “What's up?”

 

Queen Zelna tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, plainly and with a kind smile, “Well, first of all, I would like to say that you have done well in passing the test. Your mother would have been very proud to see how mature and grown up you have become.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon, with a smile, “Thank you.”

 

Queen Zelna tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Now, you know what you must do to beat the Light of Destruction. Not only do you need to weld the Darkness of Salvation, but the power that makes up your very being in your previous life and in this one. The Light of Hope gives life and love to the universe and you are its living representation. Combine it with the powers of the Darkness of Salvation and the Light of Destruction shall before your might, but in order to do this, you much reach out with the positive emotions in your heart.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon nods her head in understand and replies, kindly, “Don't worry, Queen Zelna, I will remember.”

 

Queen Zelna then takes out something wrapped up in a blanket and Queen Zelna tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Finally, a little `gift' from `demon mother' to `descendant daughter', so to speak.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon puts it into her hands and she asks, curiously, “Thanks, but what is it?”

 

Queen Zelna says, with a sly smile, “Oh, just a little something between you and your prince, that's all.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, suspiciously, “Why do I get the feeling that it has to do with their `enhanced drives' and their philosophy on relationships and `intimacy'?” Valkyrie Sailor Moon puts the blanket into her sub-space pocket and replies, nervously, “Um . . . thanks.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon returns to the others and Sailor Mini-Moon asks, curiously, “What was that all about Sailor Moon?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, trying to stay calm, “Just a few final `words of wisdom', that's all.”

 

Sailor Venus asks, curiously and with a sly smile, “And what's that she gave you?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, nervously and trying to sound calm, “Just a `going away present' between `demon mother' and `descendant daughter', that's all.”

 

Sailor Venus asks, with a cheeky tone, “Can I see it?!”

 

Sailor Mars yells out, seriously, “Hey! We've got more important things to worry about besides that!”

 

Sailor Venus asks, curiously, “What do you mean, Mars?”

 

Sailor Mercury has her computer out and she says, plainly, “I've been reviewing the data that Serena gave me on the schedule for the GX tournament since she is the current Vice-Chancellor. And the tournament is going to be called off tomorrow for the school year's Duel Monsters' Spirit Day!”

 

Sailor Jupiter yells out, amazed, “No way! You're kidding!”

 

Rinku asks the Sailor Scouts, “What's that?”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon replies, “It is a day on Duel Academy that everyone celebrates with parties, foods, and most of all, dressing up like your favorite Duel Monsters like Dark Magician Girl, Red-Eyes Black Dragon, or any other Duel Monster that you like. My mommy told me all about it.”

 

Sailor Pallas exclaims, excitedly, “Oh, wow! Sailor Pallas thinks it sounds like fun.”

 

Sailor Venus yells out, excitedly, “Yeah, it is! Oh, man! I've been waiting all school year for this day!”

 

Sailor Mars states, with a sly grin, “Because you want to dress as a sexy Dark Magician Girl and attract many boys, huh?”

 

Sailor Venus says, with a sly smile, “Now, what makes you say that Rei?”

 

Sailor Jupiter tells Sailor Venus, with a sly grin, “Oh, good grief! Give it up, Mina! We know how you are! You and Mindy are so much alike!”

 

Sailor Venus asks, curiously, “We are?” The Inner Sailor Scouts and Sailor Saturn nervously laugh and sweatdrop at this.

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a dark serious tone, “However, we should remember that the Society of Trash might take this time to plot something.”

 

Sailor Venus says, with a dark annoyed tone, “Oh, poopy! Do you have to remind me of those dorks and that freak of a `Master'?!”

 

Sailor Neptune says, with a dark plain tone, “Sorry, Mina, but Amara has a good point. We can't let our guards down during the whole day.”

 

Tuxedo Mask nods and says, with a dark serious tone, “Amara and Michelle are right, Mina. The Light of Destruction isn't going to sit around and let us take the day off without worrying about him. We have to watch ourselves and the students.”

 

Sailor Venus sighs and says, with a dark plain tone, “Yeah, you're right.” Sailor Venus says, with a dark sly grin, “But . . . that doesn't mean that we can't have some fun!”

 

Sailor Vesta says, with a sly grin, “You know I keep wondering why we didn't join up with these girls in the first place.”

 

Sailor Ceres says, with a sigh, “Because we were so obsessed with not growing up allowing that witch Neherenia to control us.”

 

Sailor Juno says, with a moan, “Do you have to remind us of that, Ceres?”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon tells the Sailor Quartet, with a kind smile, “Come on, girls! That's in the past! You are one of us now!”

 

Sailor Pallas says, with a sly grin, “That's right!”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a plain tone, “If everyone is done, we should get going.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Queen Zelna, “Thank you for everything, your majesty.”

 

Queen Zelna replies, with a smile, “It was nothing, Princess Serenity. Now, remember what you have learned here and that you are one of the six Chosen Ones that are the only ones that can defeat the vile Light of Destruction. Many living beings in the universe are depending on you and the other five for your victory to live in peace.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a sigh, “Yeah, no pressure.”

 

Queen Zelna tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Good luck and may you fight with honor.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, nervously, “Thanks . . . I think.”

 

Sailor Jupiter yells out, with a sly grin, “See ya!” Soon enough, our Sailor Scouts and Selena take flight hovering low near the ground while the six demons keep up with their demonic super-speed.

 

As they were nearly out of sight, one of the soldiers asks Queen Zelna, curiously, “My queen, not to argue with your great wisdom, but do you really believe that she can win? She is the daughter of Queen Serenity as well as reincarnated as your descendant and infused with the Darkness of Salvation. However, the Light of Destruction has existed since the start of time and its vile existence has been causing chaos and destruction for millennia. Do you think the hanyou Moon Princess has a chance?”

 

Queen Zelna replies, without hesitation, “Yes, she does. She has the greatest power of Light and the greatest power of Darkness on her side. The power of Life flows through her, as thick as her blood, and no power in the universe, not even that vile Light of Destruction, can stop life for continuing on. Princess Serenity will win, but not because of her legendary Sailor Scouts power, my blood in her, or even the Darkness of Salvation within, even through it helps. She will win because she has the power of life in her heart and soul and she is just beginning on her path to become a great queen.” As Queen Zelna and the soldiers return to the kingdom, we focus on our heroes and heroines going through the large underground pathway back to the rest of the Makai and we focus on Valkyrie Sailor Moon with strength and determination in her eyes and a warm smile on her lips.

 

(Back in the Human World; within Queen Beryl's base somewhere on Academy Island)

 

Inside of Queen Beryl's base near Academy Island, we find her inside of a large sauna like pool filled with a mysterious black liquid and she has an angered expression on her face as looks to see dark energy around the stump that used to be her left arm continue to slowly regenerate. By this time, her arm was only half regenerated and Queen Beryl continues to fume over what happened.

 

Queen Beryl yells out, angrily, “Damn that little moon bitch! She harms my beautiful face and now, she cuts off my beautiful arm! She shall pay ten-fold for this transgression!”

 

Zoicite tells Queen Beryl, “My queen, with her new demon powers flowing through her, you know that little wench is more powerful than ever before. She has the power of a Yu-Zen behind her.”

 

Queen Beryl yells out, with enraged tone, “Don't you think that I don't know that?!”

 

Malachite tells Queen Beryl, trying to calm her down, “My queen, what Zoicite is trying to say is that to confront the Moon Princess directly with her new demon powers mixed with her spiritual powers and the Legendary Sailor Scouts power would not be good. At best, you could take her with you. At worst, she takes you down and she isn't even injured.”

 

Queen Beryl says, with a snarl, “Yes, I can see your point, Malachite. What do you suggest?”

 

Jadeite says, with an evil sly smile, “It is simple my queen. We need to go through the weakest links in the chain first, my queen. Focus on Sailor Moon's and her damn brother's, Prince Judai's, friends. And if this `Zane Truesdale', is the reincarnation of the powerful `shadow warrior' of the Silver Millennium, his energy would very much come in handy, especially against the Moon Princess' new powers.”

 

Queen Beryl's eyes widen, she gains an evil sly smile, and she says, with an evil grin, “Excellent idea, Jadeite. I knew there was a reason that I kept you frozen rather than let you die. You have proven the most valuable to me. You are rotten, underhanded, sneaky, sly, crafty, and plenty of things that I love about a subordinate.”

 

Zoicite and Malachite growl at this while Jadeite gives a wide evil grin and Jadeite says, with a bow, “Thank you, Queen Beryl.”

 

Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, “Jadeite, I want you to start plans for future operations immediately. Zoicite and Malachite shall be under your command.”

 

Zoicite and Malachite yells out in unison and in shock, “WHAT?!”

 

Queen Beryl asks, with an evil deadly glare in her eyes, “Is there a problem?”

 

Zoicite and Malachite swallow a lot of air from Queen Beryl's glare and Malachite replies, nervously, “No, my queen.”

 

Queen Beryl replies, with a serious tone, “Good. Now, continue gathering energy until either Jadeite or I call for you. Now, GO!!!” Zoicite and Malachite glare deadly at Jadeite as they teleport away. When they are gone, Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, with an evil sly grin, “Remember, Jadeite, command does come with a price. Those two might try to make sure of your demise in order to get what I gave you.”

 

Jadeite tells Queen Beryl, with an evil smile, “I shall remember that, your majesty.”

 

Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, “Before you leave, I have a bit of information that I need you to work on.”

 

Jadeite asks Queen Beryl, curiously, “What is it, Queen Beryl?”

 

Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, with a serious tone, “It concerns about the ritual that created the Millennium Items in the first place.”

 

Jadeite's eyes widen in interest and he asks, curiously, “What about it?” Queen Beryl motions for him to come closer, he does so, and Queen Beryl whispers into his ear causing Jadeite to yelp in shock.

 

Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, motioning to the walls, “Quiet, Jadeite!”

 

Jadeite asks Queen Beryl, “Why, my queen?”

 

Queen Beryl whispers, plainly, “The walls have ears, Jadeite. I can sense that rotten Shadow Creature, Diabound, is around.”

 

Jadeite nods his head and replies, in a whisper, “I see. So, he doesn't trust us, huh?”

 

Queen Beryl whispers, seriously, “I feel the same way about Zorc, Jadeite. Most likely, he will betray us as soon as he gains the other Millennium Items from those brats.”

 

Jadeite says, with an evil sly smile, “I see. So, we need `insurance' against him. I shall get to work right away.”

 

Queen Beryl tells Jadeite, with a whisper, “There is more one thing, Jadeite.” Queen Beryl starts whispering into Jadeite's ear and he nods his head with an evil sly smile coming over his lips.

 

Jadeite tells Queen Beryl, with a plain tone, “I'll get to work on it right away!” Soon after, Jadeite teleports out of the room while Queen Beryl continues to relax in her `pool' while Diabound, in its hideous final form, fades away from the distance walls.

 

Queen Beryl thinks in her mind, “That's right, Zorc! Feel that you are superior since you think that you have the drop on me! However, it is I who will have the last laugh in the end!”

 

(In the early evening hours; In front of the Slifer Red dorm)

 

Just after dusk, we find Jaden, Tyranno, Syrus, Jasmine, Mindy, Chazz, Alexis, Atticus, Zane, Bastion, Kagome, Inuyasha, Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Yukina, Yeshua, and Alinna assembled together as they are seemly waiting for something or someone.

 

Chazz yells out, in his usual snobbish tone, “What is taking them so long? I would like to get my beauty sleep you know?!”

 

Syrus says, with a sly grin, “You have `beauty sleep', Chazz?”

 

Chazz calls out, with an annoyed tone, “And what's that supposed to mean, half-pint?!”

 

Kagome tells the two of them, in a plain tone, “Okay, you, two, calm down already!”

 

Bastion says, with a logical tone, “Yes. If they told us that they are going to be here, they will be here. We just need to be patient.” Just then, as if on cue, a large portal appears in the air in front of them and out of the portal, Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, riding on Selena, the Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts, Sailor Mini-Moon, the Sailor Quartet, and the six demon friends of Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, and Yusuke's former Spirit Detective team come through the gateway. Soon after, the gateway closes behind them as the rest of our heroes and heroines come over to greet them.

 

Syrus tells Sailor Saturn, with a smile, “Welcome back, Hotaru-chan!”

 

Sailor Saturn tells Syrus, with a kind tone, “Thank you, Syrus-chan!”

 

Syrus takes out a holographic The Agent of Judgment-Saturn (2400/0) monster card and he tells her, a bit nervously, “I got you this holographic card and I thought that you would like it since it is kind of like you.”

 

Sailor Saturn takes the card and she tells Syrus, “Oh, thank you, Syrus-chan!” Sailor Saturn gently kisses him on his right cheek and Syrus gives a wide blush about it.

 

Jaden asks Syrus, with a cheeky smile, “Is that blushing I see?”

 

Syrus replies, shaking his head, “Um . . . I don't know what you are talking about!”

 

Jaden tells Syrus, teasingly, “Come on, Syi!”

 

Syrus yells out, a bit embarrassed, “Cut it out, Jay!”

 

Mindy giggles and she says, with a sly grin, “I see some things never change.”

 

Sailor Venus tells Mindy and Jasmine, “Hey, girls, we better hit the hay early tonight!”

 

Mindy asks Sailor Venus, “What for, Mina?”

 

Jasmine yells out, remembering, “Oh, right! Tomorrow is a day off from the tournament for this year's Duel Monsters' Spirit Day!”

 

Jaden calls out, surprised, “Duel Monsters' Spirit Day is tomorrow?!”

 

Chazz tells Jaden, in his usual snobbish tone, “No duh, Slacker! Where were you?! Under a rock?”

 

Jaden tells Chazz, with a sly grin, “Well, I have been working to save the world from an evil freak trying to brainwash everyone and threatening to destroy all life in the universe.”

 

Chazz rolls his eyes and replies, “Whatever, Slacker.”

 

Mindy calls out, excitedly, “Oh, wow! This is going to be so awesome! I can't wait to dress up!”

 

Sailor Venus says, with a sly smile, “Yeah! I'm going to be a Dark Magician Girl!”

 

Jasmine states, with a sly grin, “Looking to make some boys get `hard' on you, Mina?”

 

Sailor Venus replies, with a slight grin, “What if I am, Jaz? Can you imagine me as a Dark Magician Girl?”

 

Atticus thinks in his mind, curiously, “Mina as a Dark Magician Girl . . .” Soon after, a very sexy Mina in a Dark Magician Girl costume comes to his mind and he gets a red hue on his cheeks as he tries to control himself.

 

Alexis gets `wind' of what her brother is thinking with the dreamy look in his eyes and she thinks, with a moan, “What am I going to do with him sometimes?”

 

Jaden sees his girlfriend's annoyed look and he asks in a whisper, curiously, “Hey, Lex, what's up?”

 

Alexis points to Atticus, Jaden sees Atticus' dreamy look, and Alexis whispers to Jaden, with a sigh, “Atticus Rhodes has just left the building or his mind anyway.”

 

Jaden giggles and replies, with a sly smile, “Oh, Alexis . . .” Jaden gives a sly giggle from what Alexis said about her brother and she gets a case of the `giggles' as well.

 

Inuyasha asks Kagome, “Hey, Kagome, what is this `Duel Monsters' Spirit Day'?”

 

Kagome tells Inuyasha, with a smile, “It is a long story, Inuyasha. It is kind of a tradition here in Duel Academy that they do once a year.”

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “I can't believe that we are going to experience for the first time.”

 

Jasmine tells Keiko, with a sly grin, “You'll love it, Kei.”

 

Kurama says, with a serious tone, “It shall be a lot of fun, but we shouldn't forget to keep on our guards.”

 

The mood of the group changes and Kagome says, with a dark annoyed tone in her voice, “Oh, yeah! How could I forget those asshole that brainwashed poor Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka and kidnapped my family?!”

 

Yusuke says, with a dark annoyed tone, “They really know how to spoil a good mood and a good time even before its started.”

 

Sailor Uranus tells them, in a dark plain tone, “Well, until they and the Light of Destruction, those dweebs are going to continue to spoil our `good moods'.”

 

Sailor Neptune says, with a dark sly smile, “However, it doesn't mean that we can't have fun at their expense.”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, with a dark sly grin, “Yeah! Have fun and really party and blow right in those white geeks faces!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly tone, “My, Michelle, I didn't know that you had such a devious mind.”

 

Sailor Neptune says, with a dark sly grin, “I have my moments, Rei.”

 

Hikari tells Sailor Neptune, “Well, Michelle, we're glad that you are back on our side.”

 

Jaden asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, “Well, sis, how did it go?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Jaden, with a smile, “Well, I meet my demon ancestor and she was the very same person that saved my mother all those millennia ago.”

 

The rest of our heroes and heroines, minus Yeshua, gasp in shock and Yusuke yells out, stunned, “Whoa! So, it is true?! So, she is like thousands of years old?!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a smile, “Yeah. However, she doesn't look a day over her twenties, if she was a human.”

 

Mindy says, amazed, “I've got to learn her secret.”

 

Keiko asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, curiously, “So, what happened?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Keiko, with a sly smile, “It is a long story, Kei.” Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon and the others told what happened from their journey in Demon World, finding the Yu-Zen kingdom, meeting Queen Zelna, Valkyrie Sailor Moon going through the three `tests' of the sacred circle, and what happened. When they were done, our heroes and heroines that weren't with Valkyrie Sailor Moon and the others that went into Demon World were very much impressed to say the least.

 

Kagome says, amazed, “That's incredible!”

 

Hikari says, pretty amazed, “I can't believe that you met Mukuro!”

 

Chu tells Hikari, with a smile, “Believe it, little lady!”

 

Sailor Venus says, with a smile, “Yeah! And she was very helpful to us for some reason or another.”

 

Kurama says, with a plain and logical tone, “Mukuro is no fool. Most likely, she knew that helping you would help stop the Light of Destruction that she must have sensed in the battle between us and that evil force. All demons know the myth and legends of the most evil force of the universe and in order to survive, demons need the vital balance of life to be maintained, so, helping those that can stop it is helping them and the entire world of the Makai.”

 

Kuwabara says, with a serious tone and nod, “That's a good point, Kurama.”

 

Hiei says, plainly, “Obviously, fool.”

 

Kuwabara yells out, angrily, “I'm really starting to get tired of your mouth, shortly!”

 

Yukina tells Kuwabara and Hiei, with a kind tone, “Come on, you, two, can't we get along?!”

 

Yusuke says, with a sarcastic tone, “Those two?! Don't count your chickens before they hatch!”

 

Inuyasha asks, curiously, “By the way, who is going to take up `guard duty' tonight? We should increase the guard with this big event coming up.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a smile, “I'll do it!”

 

Everyone looks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon surprised and Keiko asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, concerned tone, “Are you sure, Serena? You have a bit of a time in Demon World.”

 

Yusuke says, with a serious tone, “And trust a guy and his sister who has been there, it isn't easy.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a warm smile, “Sure! I'll be fine! I'm not a morning person . . .”

 

Sailor Mars rolls her eyes and states, in her usual manner, “That's for sure, Meatball Head.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon sticks her tongue out at Sailor Mars and she says, plainly, “Anyway, before I was rudely interrupted, I'm not a morning person and personally, these days, I like the dead of night. I've become more of night person.”

 

Sailor Venus says, with a sly tone, “Gee, I wonder why.”

 

Hikari tells Sailor Venus, with a sly smile, “I don't think it is too hard to guess.”

 

Eclipse tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, mentally, “She has got you there, princess!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, mentally and with annoyance in her tone, “Oh, why don't you quiet down in there?!”

 

Tuxedo Mask tells Valkyrie Sailor Moon, seriously, “Well, I'm not allowing you to go out there alone.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a smile, “Agreed, Prince Darien. I will accompany you and Sailor Moon as well.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Count on me in. I've got nothing better to do anyway.”

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, concerned, “Are you sure?”

 

Inuyasha says, in his usual manner, “Feh! Do you remember who you are talking to?!”

 

Kagome states, with a sly smile, “How can I ever forget? Just be careful out there okay?”

 

Inuyasha replies, plainly, “Sure.”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon asks, curiously, “What about me?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon replies, sternly, “No way, Rini! And don't argue with me here! You are a young lady and you need your sleep! And I'm going to ask Hotaru and the others to make sure that you do.”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon yells out, annoyed, “Oh, man!”

 

Sailor Vesta says, with a sarcastic tone, “Tell us about it, my princess.”

 

Sailor Juno says, with an annoyed tone, “We had to deal with it when we were with that rotten Dead Moon and that old hag!”

 

Sailor Uranus tells the Sailor Quartet, in a serious tone, “Well, you aren't in the Dead Moon anymore. You are Sailor Scouts.”

 

Sailor Neptune says, with her classic teasing smile, “And you wouldn't want the enemy to defeat you because of lack of sleep!”

 

The Sailor Quartet replies in unison, “No way!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a warm smile, “Okay, everyone! See you in the morning!” Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask get onto Selena's back and they fly off into the distance with Sailor Pluto flying behind while Inuyasha takes to the tree to begin his part of the patrol.

 

Kagome thinks in her mind, concerned tone, “Be careful, Inuyasha.”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, with a sly grin, “Well, girls, off to bed with all of us! We've got a big day tomorrow!”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon asks, curiously, “Can we participate?”

 

Sailor Mercury says, with a smile, “Sure, Rini! And the Sailor Quartet, too! This Duel Monsters' Spirit Day, everyone who was or is still in the GX tournament gets to be part of this year's Duel Monsters' Spirit Day!”

 

Sailor Pallas yells out, excitedly, “Oh, boy!”

 

Sailor Vesta says, with a sly grin, “Fun! Games! And costumes! Now, we're talking!”

 

Sailor Juno yells out, excitedly, “Well, what are we waiting for?! Let's get to bed so we don't snooze through it already!” Immediately, Sailor Mini-Moon and the Sailor Quartet head off to the special rooms that they have during their time here on Duel Academy.

 

Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “Kids.”

 

Kurama says, with a smile, “Indeed, Yusuke. It is best that we also turn in as well.” Not needing another word, the group of Sailor Scouts left in the group de-transform back to their civilian forms and the our heroes and heroines head off to their dorm rooms to sleep for the night and prepare for the exciting morning to come.

 

(Within unknown cavern containing the Millennium Stone; on the meanwhile)

 

Inside of the unknown cavern containing the Millennium Stone, we find Yami Bakura, the Sailor Animamates, and Bonz relaxing in one way or another within the cavern as Yami Bakura uses the power of the Millennium Necklace to get a look into the immediately future.

 

When he is done, Yami Bakura says, evilly, “So, our little group of `heroes' is going to take off to have some fun, are they?”

 

Bonz asks Yami Bakura, “What do you mean boss?”

 

Yami Bakura replies, with an evil sly grin, “I've used the Millennium Necklace to take a short look into the immediately future. Our enemies are going to take a day off from this tournament to have some fun and play games at a school holiday known as `Duel Monsters' Spirit Day'. A day of their little fun and games.”

 

Sailor Lead Crow asks, with an evil smile, “So, we are going to attack them?”

 

Yami Bakura says, with a serious tone, “You would think that they are at their most vulnerable and usually, you would be right, but remember, they have been fighting the Light of Destruction and its foolish Society of Light before we came into the picture. And with them still here, they will be on guard for any trouble.”

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko says, seriously, “Good point. We need to catch them off-guard.”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil smile, “Correct. We shall wait until they are deeply battling the Society of Light or that foolish witch, Beryl, who got her hand cut off when Sailor Moon's demonic blood awoke.”

 

Sailor Lead Crow says, with an evil sly grin, “Isn't that ironic? The `demon fighting' princess turns out to be a `demon' herself.”

 

Yami Bakura says, seriously, “She is no joke! With that demon blood in her body, Sailor Moon's power has risen to new levels! Even with the shadow powers that I've infused within you, she would defeat all of you! At best, you can take her with you!”

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko yells out, in shock, “What?! No way!”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil sly grin, “Yes way! But if you don't believe me, get ripped apart by her!”

 

Sailor Iron Mouse says, fearfully, “No way! I'm not going to fight Sailor Moon when she is like that!”

 

Yami Bakura says, with a serious tone, “Then you had better make sure that you do what I say! We shall wait for the right time!”

 

Sailor Aluminum Siren asks, curiously, “How we will know it is the right time?”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil sly grin, “Do not worry, we will know. We will know.” As Bonz and the Sailor Animamates wonder what Yami Bakura meant by that, his evil grin becomes more sinister, so, much that it scares even his subordinates, which bears `ill tidings' to our heroes and heroines . . .

 

(The next day; All over Duel Academy)

 

Early the following morning, a few minutes before sunrise, we find stands of all shapes and sizes being thrown for everything from food, to masks, to costumes, to toys, and so much more. Party balloons, regular and custom-made, mainly in the form of Duel Monsters, are being thrown up everywhere. Dueling rings are being created from creating a simple dueling field with chalk dust and markings on the ground to setting up portal hologram dueling rings all around. And plus, there are dozens of people, ranging from workers, to businessman, to people manning the stands, and to students of Duel Academy setting up all of this. And in the center of all this preparation, we find none other than our Moon Princess, Serena Tsukino, Galaxy Princess, Hikari Urameshi, and our Duel Monsters' champion, Yugi Moto, directing all of the people setting up the stuff for Duel Monsters' Spirit Day.

 

Yugi is working with several people on a portal holographic stadium and he tells them, looking at it and the plans, “Make a minor adjustment on it and it is set up.”

 

The people that are working with Yugi say in unison, “Yes, sir, Mister Moto!”

 

Hikari is directing other people with the stands and she calls out, “Come on, people! We have to move! Duel Monsters' Spirit Day is today and the celebration starts at dawn and will last all day!”

 

Serena yells out, with a commanding tone not seen in her before, “No! Those balloons go over there and those stands were arranged over there! Please, I don't mean to yell, but get it right!”

 

Serena gives a deep sigh and a familiar female voice calls out, “Hard day on the job, kitten?” Serena turns to the source to see Darien, Amara, Michelle, and Trista walking towards them!

 

Darien goes over to Serena, kisses her on the lips, and he tells her, “I thought I told you to get some rest.”

 

Serena tells Darien, with a sweet smile, “I did! However, I promised Chancellor Sheppard that I would help with today because I'm still the Vice-Chancellor after all.”

 

Michelle asks Trista, with a dark plain tone, “Any problems last night?”

 

Trista tells Michelle, shaking her head, “Nothing suspicious during our patrol last night.”

 

Amara says, with a dark serious tone, “With their command structure in disarray, those dweebs must be in complete chaos. Sartorius doesn't have anyone to manage his shirking cult anymore.”

 

Serena tells Amara, with a dark serious tone, “Yeah, but I wouldn't put anything by that parasite. Keep your eyes open.” Darien and the three Outer Sailor Scouts nod their heads in unison.

 

Soon after, Yugi heads over to the group and he asks them, “Hey, guys? Have you seen Atem and Tea anywhere? I heard from the two of them that they woke up a short time earlier than the rest of us.”

 

Serena shakes her head and replies, “Not really, Yugi-sempai.”

 

Michelle says, with a sly grin, “Well, I did see Atem and Tea enter the main building at two different times. Something tells me that the two of them want to be alone.”

 

Yugi asks Michelle, curiously, “What makes you say that?”

 

Michelle says, with a smile, “Just call a woman's intuition, Yugi-sempai.”

 

Just then a large `crash' is heard and Hikari's voice balls out, annoyed, “Oh, come on! Can't you watch where you are going?!”

 

Serena says, with a sigh, “Sounds like trouble.”

 

Yugi nods his head and replies, “Yep.”

 

Amara asks Serena, with a plain tone and with a smile, “Need a hand?”

 

Serena replies, with a warm smile, “Gladly.” Soon after, Serena, Yugi, Darien, Amara, Michelle, and Trista head over where the loud `crash' happened and to see what has happened as well as what they can do to help.

 

(Shortly after dawn this morning; on the roof of the main building of Academy Island)

 

On the roof of the main education building on Duel Academy, we find Tea finishing ascending the stairs to the roof and finding Atem with his arms crossed in front of his chest looking out towards the sky in the light of the rising sun.

 

Tea thinks in her mind, “Wow! Atem looks so noble and awesome in the light!” Tea shakes her head and thinks in her mind, “Come on, girl, this isn't the time to think something like that! Atem will think that you are some kind of weirdo! But it has been so long and Yugi and the rest of us have changed. However, Atem has been in the Spirit World for ten years and he hasn't changed much. Can I even relate to him anymore? Wait! Why would I think that? Of course I can, Yugi and the rest of us have grown up, but all of us are still friends, including with Atem!” However, deep inside of Tea's heart, even through it has been ten years since Atem has left, Tea has felt something `more' about Atem. Soon after, Tea gently goes towards Atem and goes to his left side.

 

Atem turns when he `senses' someone nearby, he looks to see Tea, and he says, plainly, “Tea, you came.”

 

Tea tells Atem, with a kind smile, “Of course, I did, Atem! Why wouldn't I? Why did you want to talk to me?”

 

Atem gives a slight flush in his cheeks, through he tries not to show it, and he tells Tea, trying to sound calm, “I just need someone to talk to, Tea. It has been a lot more `hectic' since I've been reborn.”

 

Tea nods her head and replies, with a kind tone, “Yeah. We thought that our journey together was over, Atem.”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a plain tone, “Our first journey, Tea. This is our second journey. It looks like the universe is far from done with me. Now, I have another important job to do.”

 

Tea asks Atem, a bit nervously, “Not to sound dumb and all, Atem, but what was that job again?”

 

Atem replies, with a serious tone, “To help guide the `Chosen Duelists', Serena, Jaden, Aster, Kagome, Yusuke, and Hikari, on their path as they fight the evil Light of Destruction before it can blind the world in its evil veil and destroy all life in the universe by destroying the balance of life itself.”

 

Tea nods her head and replies, “Right. Plus, Jaden, who is Serena's brother from that Silver Millennium, is your successor right?”

 

Atem nods his head and replies, seriously, “That's right, Tea. Jaden is the `heir to Egypt', the next great Pharaoh of my home, and in order for his sister to rise to become one of the great rulers of the universe and the ruler of Crystal Tokyo, Jaden must become the next king of my home and raise his beloved's kingdom, the Sun Kingdom, in the sands of Egypt and in the river Nile. The power of the Egyptian Gods and the Creator of Light answer to him now because he is their next `Chosen Pharaoh'.”

 

Tea asks Atem, curiously, “But you can still use them, right?”

 

Atem nods his head and says, seriously, “Yes, I can still use the Egyptian God Cards as the first `Chosen Duelist' of the Egyptian Gods as well as Kaiba, Marik, and Ishizu since they are connected with my ancient past in some way. But when Jaden takes the throne of Egypt, the Gods shall be his, and his alone as it should be. The Egyptian Gods are the loyal allies of the Pharaoh of Egypt who is the keeper of peace in the land and Jaden is to be Pharaoh. I've watched my former partner's `successor' and I know that he chose well for the next `King of Games'. Jaden, like Yugi, has the great heart and soul of a king.”

 

Tea tells Atem, with a smile, “You really think highly of Jaden?”

 

Atem replies, with a kind smile, “Should I not? He has proven himself very capable as a duelist, as a person, and like I said, he has the heart of a king within him.”

 

Tea asks Atem, curiously, “So, what will you when it is time for Jaden to take the throne that you once held?”

 

Atem replies, trying to remain calm, “I wish I know. I guess that it is all up to me. Now, I have a chance for a regular life, through with my luck, it might not happen.”

 

Tea tells Atem, with a kind smile, “Who knows, Atem? You might get a chance for a restful life and find a special someone since the `special someone' that you might have had is . . . you know.” Tea gives herself a mental hit on the head and she thinks, drolly, “Way to go, Gardner! What was that all about?!”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a nod, “You might have a point. There could be someone for me in this time.”

 

Tea asks, curiously, “Really?”

 

Atem says, with a kind smile, “Yes. I just have to find her.”

 

Tea blushes wildly at his smile, she turns away from him to hide that blush, and she says, with a slight nervous tone, “Well, I hope you do.” However, Tea feels somewhat solemn at the idea of Atem finding another woman in his life.

 

Atem looks at Tea, a slight wind passes by, Atem can't help to think how beautiful Tea looks, and the voice that visited him last night enters his mind and says, mentally, “You can't help, but to desire her, my former king. It is natural. However, you have the ability to have her for your own.”

 

Atem shakes his head and yells out, mentally, “No, I can't do that to her! She has to chose who she wants to have in her life!”

 

The voice tells Atem, mentally, “Then has she told you that she never went out with your former host or any of your other friends during your journey ten years past?! Your great duty to the world is over and that duty has been passed onto the other `Chosen Duelists'! You have a new life! A second chance with your friends and a new chance for `new' love, so, why do you hold back?!”

 

Atem replies, mentally, “Because . . . I . . . I don't want to hurt her.”

 

The voice tells Atem, mentally, “Then what would you feel about her leaving with some other man?” Atem tried to respond to that question, but he couldn't form the words he needed and the voice tells Atem, mentally, “You see, my point, my king. I know what you desire and need because I am your inner desires. You love Tea. You need Tea. She helped you through the Orichalcos when you fell into darkness and lost Yugi's soul. She helped give you the strength to rise again and get Yugi back. She helped you focus your thoughts and gain the courage that you need to start the journey to find your lost memories with Battle City. Deep down, you feel a great deal for Tea and you want her so badly. But if you wish to find out how she feels, you know how you can do it. The power of the Eyesof Horus will help you reveal all . . .” As the words of the voice sink into Atem, he keeps looking at Tea and he can't help to be mesmerized by the young woman full of beauty and life, in his eyes. And deep down, Atem felt exactly as the voice told he felt. He really did love Tea, but he never told her because he knew that he was just a spirit and he was going to leave when his journey was over. However, now, he has a second life and Tea doesn't love anyone else, yet. He knows that she won't wait for someone forever, so, unable to get the words of that `voice' out of his mind, he decides to take a chance.

 

Atem tells Tea, with a slightly nervous, “Maybe I already have found that special woman in my life.”

 

Tea asks, a bit nervously, “You have?”

 

Atem says, with a slightly nervous smile, “Maybe. She holds an important place in heart and I can't stop feeling about her.”

 

Tea says, feeling a bit solemn, “May I . . . May I ask who?”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a slightly nervous look on his face while turning to Tea, “I can tell you, but for one favor that might sound strange.”

 

Tea looks Atem and she asks, curiously, “What favor?”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a slightly nervous tone, “You see, Tea, I've remember an ancient Shadow Game way of focusing yourself during a duel and I might have a way to use it in the modern way of dueling. Hopefully, it will help Jaden in the future Shadow Games that Zorc and Marik's dark side, who will come back with the imbalance still in place, and I need to make sure that it is ready. So, could you do me a favor and tell what you think?”

 

Tea replies, with a shrug, “Sure. What do I need to do?”

 

Atem tells Tea, plainly with a slight nervous expression on his face, “All I need for you to do is look into my eyes.” Tea shrugs her shoulders and starts looking at Atem's eyes with her eyes. At first, nothing happens for a few seconds and then Atem's eyes start to give off a beautiful and warm golden glow. Tea was about to open her mouth to say something to Atem, but soon, she wasn't able to say anything as the golden color fills her eyes and her mind. Tea feels a great sense of pleasure as she falls deeper and deeper into the golden color that Atem's eyes as a warm feeling fills her whole body. Soon after, Atem asks Tea, “How do you feel, Tea?”

 

Tea replies, her tone labored like a hypnotized person's voice, “Feel . . . good . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, plainly, “That's good, Tea. Fall deeper into the golden color. It makes you feel warm inside and let you will wash away.”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “. . . Warm . . . will . . . wash away . . .” Soon enough, Tea felt all of her willpower just float away as she feels that she is floating in a sea of that beautiful golden color making her feel warm and a bit horny as well.

 

Atem tells Tea, plainly, “That's right, Tea. Now, do you trust me, Tea?”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “Yes . . . Atem . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, plainly, “Now, I will ask a few questions and you will answer them honestly. Do you understand?”

 

Tea tells Atem, in her labored tone, “Questions . . . I will answer . . .” Atem swallows a lot of air and he decides that this is the moment of truth. If Tea answers his questions the opposite that he would prefer, he will stop where he is and erase Tea's memory up to the point of the `favor' he asked of her.

 

Atem asks Tea, plainly, “Tea, why didn't you go out with Yugi or any of our other friends? Or anyone else for that matter?”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “Because . . . I love you, Atem . . .” Atem jumps back slightly from shock and nearly loses his concentration.

 

However, he remains focused and Atem asks Tea, “When did you start loving me?”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “The day that robber came into the cafe and blindfolded me . . . when you stopped him . . . and saved me . . . I heard your voice for the first time . . .” Atem remembers that day well somewhat over ten years ago. Tea was working at a café when she wasn't allowed to, secretly keeping her age, when a robber came in and took everyone hostage. He blindfolded Tea and started making demands. Atem, was just Yami or Yami Yugi at the time, took over for Yugi and saved Tea through his `little game'. Tea then says, in her labored tone, “Ever since . . . learning about . . . when you were just the . . . Yami . . . I couldn't help to fall in love with . . . you . . . because you were so mysterious . . . and the more we journeyed together . . . the deeper I fell in love with you . . .”

 

Atem asks Tea, plainly, “What about Yugi and the others?”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “They are good friends . . . faithful . . . loyal . . . but none of them . . . not even Yugi . . . feels right with me . . . I care for him like a brother and such . . . but nothing like I felt for you . . . Atem . . . I never wanted you to leave . . . but I wanted you to finally have some peace and . . . move on . . . so I never told you when you left . . .” Atem is amazed to hear these words, even through hypnoses and mind-control, come out of Tea's mouth. Atem, now, knows that Tea is the girl for him and he wants to make sure that Tea will be with him for his second life, but the pang of moral consciousness comes to his mind and he struggles within himself which is stronger: Morality or making the one that you love, who loves you, heart remains with you? Atem is a very moral, but even he can be tempted, including the time with the Orichalcos, which he greatly regrets. However, the temptation of having Tea by his side and the fear of losing her to another man as well as the power of love manages to barely overrule Atem's `moral pains', so, he decides to go throughout with what he planned if he found out that Tea does love him.

 

Atem tells Tea, with a plain tone, “Tea, listen to my words and burn these words into your heart and into your mind. Do you understand?”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “Yes . . . Atem . . . your words . . . put them into my heart . . . my mind . . . burn them . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a nod, “Good, Tea. Now, listen carefully, you love me with all of your heart and your soul. You trust me with all of your heart and spirit. So much, you wish and need for me to make all of the choices in your life from now for you.”

 

Tea replies, with her labored tone, “Love . . . Trust . . . Atem . . . with heart . . . spirit . . . soul . . . need for Atem . . . to make all choices for me . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “You are totally devoted to me. I am the only man in your life. I am the only man that you need.”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “Totally devoted . . . Atem . . . only man that I need . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “You are completely sexually attracted to me. I am the most handsome and most desirable man in your life. No other man completes with me. You desire me in every way. Looking at me makes you already start arousing. You can't help to desire my touch. My touch makes you quiver with desire.”

 

Tea gains a lustful smile on her lips and says, in her labored tone, “Desire Atem in every way . . . only man in my life . . . desire for Atem to touch me . . . touch makes me quiver with desire . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “Your dreams are filled with desiring my lips on yours and your lovely body. You dream of my hands and skin touching yours. You dream of me touching you in very possible erotic way. You love it when I fulfill your dreams.”

 

Tea's lustful smile grows, she licks her lips, and she says, in her labored tone, “Dream of Atem . . . lips touching my lips . . . touching my body . . . touching in all erotic ways . . . love it when Atem fulfill my dreams . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “Your dreams are fulfill when you obey me and love me. You love to please me, pleasure me, and obey me in every way. It gives you pleasure. You love pleasure.”

 

Tea replies, with her lustful smile and labored tone, “Dreams come true . . . when obey . . . and love Atem . . . love to please . . . to pleasure . . . to obey Atem . . . I love pleasure . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “You are my eternal love slave, my mistress, and my concubine. But you will only show it when we are only or the people I tell you that it is okay. When we are alone or in the company of the people that I saw it is okay, you will refer to me as Master, Atem-dono, or Atem-sama. In public, you shall refer to me by name only or Atem-chan and act as if we are simply as friends or `lovers'.” Atem was glad that he remember the Japanese honorifics from his former Aibou.

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “I am Atem's slave . . . mistress . . . concubine . . . Master . . . Atem-dono . . . Atem-sama . . . only when we are alone without others . . . in public . . . refer to Atem by name . . . Atem-chan . . . act if we are just friends . . . or lovers . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “You also love to dress up for me. You love to dress up in harem and slave uniforms. You love to dress up as sexy female Duel Monsters and pretend to be them. And you love to dance erotic dances for me and me alone when we are alone to enticing me to take for my pleasure and yours.”

 

Tea says, with a real wide lustful smile and labored tone, “Love to dress up . . . harem and slave uniforms . . . sexy female Duel Monsters . . . love to dance sexy dances for Atem . . . love to enticing him to take me for pleasure . . .”

 

Atem tells Tea, “If and when you learn any powerful mind-control and hypnosis techniques, you will never use them on me. It is forbidden. You will love to gain me more girls for my harem, but you will never interfere with true love like the relationship Jaden and Alexis, Serena and Darien, Syrus and Hotaru, and other couples bond together by true love. It is forbidden and doing something forbidden will displease. It hurts you when you displease me. It hurts you when you do something forbidden by me. You wish, need, and desire to please me and you never wish to displease me.”

 

Tea nods her head and she says, in her labored tone, “Never use mind-control on Atem . . . forbidden . . . never interfere with true love . . . forbidden . . . hurt me when Atem is displease . . . hurts when doing something forbidden by Atem . . . need to please to Atem . . . never displease . . .” Atem gives a bit of a sigh when he puts that command into Tea, he might turning her into his devoted love slave, but he still has morals and he believes that true love can never be broken and never interfered with. Back in his days as Pharaoh, when he sees true love being interfered with by anyone, it always makes him pretty angry.

 

Atem tells Tea, “You also have a bisexual nature now and you are attracted to other beautiful females as well. Other girls give you pleasure, second only to me. You wish to bring them to me as long as true love in not interfered with or it is not forbidden.”

 

Tea says, licking her lips and in her labored tone, “Other girls . . . gives me pleasure . . . second only to Atem . . . wish to bring them to Atem as long as it is not forbidden . . .”

Atem then says, “When you hear me and only me say, `It is time to wake up, sexy slave!', you will wake up from this trance. When you hear me and only me say `It is time to sleep, sexy slave!', you will return to this trance.”

 

Tea replies, in her labored tone, “When Atem and only Atem says . . . It is time to wake up, sexy slave . . . awaken . . . It is time to sleep, sexy slave . . . Return to sleep . . .” Atem nods his head because he knows he might need to put in a few more commands in the future.

 

Atem tells Tea, “Now, Tea, it is time to wake up, sexy slave!” Soon after, Tea blinks her eyes several times as Atem's eyes return to normal. Tea then looks at Atem with a lustful, seductive, and enticing look in her eyes.

 

Tea then goes on her right knee and asks, in a loving and submissive tone, “Master Atem, is there anything I can do to please you?”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a smile on his lips, “Not right now, Tea. Expect you can rise.”

 

Tea replies, with a loving smile and a loving and submissive tone, “Yes, Master.” Tea rises to her feet, goes over to Atem, and kisses him right on the lips. The two of them then lock lips for a few minutes, dueling with their tongues, and Tea allows Atem to win this duel, allowing his tongue to enter her mouth and allowing him to taste every bit of her mouth and her saliva as well. When they release from the kiss, Tea asks Atem, with a lustful look and a loving tone, “Atem-sama, are you sure that there is nothing I can do to please you right now?”

 

Atem tells Tea, with a smile, “Not right at this moment, Tea. We need to join Yugi and the others to help them with Duel Monsters' Spirit Day.”

 

Tea tells Atem, with a seductive tone, “Right, Master. However, I've got a new costume idea that you might like.”

 

Atem says, with a smile, “I can't wait to see it.” On the meanwhile, what they didn't know is Zane is watching the two of them from a distance and hidden, but just then images come into his mind with a `dark knight' that looks like him with Yeshua in Atem's court, secretly learning about the `erotic magic' of ancient Egypt, and using it to help seduce a certain Galaxy Princess to his bed.

 

When the images leave Zane's mind, he gives a dark sick smile on his lips and he thinks, “Well, I thought that I would learn about the ancient hypnosis techniques of Egypt from Atem that I learned about from the history books that I researched in the past of the Shadow Games and such. However, now, I remember that I was Hikari's `lover' back in the Silver Millennium as the legendary `Shadow Knight' of the Silver Millennium and I learned things from ancient Egypt when I was in the court of the Pharaohs for sometime. Namely the secrets of the `Strength and the Wisdom of the Pharaoh', which contains the secrets of Egypt's erotic magic. Now, I can continue on with my plans without blackmailing Atem at all. I already have the knowledge. Now, to get my bro and his new girlfriend to have a better relationship than before, but I had better keep my ever returning powers suppressed or Atem will know I'm here.” Zane then secretly sneaks away from Atem and his newly hypnotized `love slave', Tea Gardner, and prepares to head off to find Hotaru and Syrus.

 

(Within the Ra Yellow dorm; Sometime later)

 

Inside of the Ra Yellow dorms, we find Hotaru Tomoe within one of the dorm room trying to decide on a costume for Duel Monsters' Spirit Day, but being the shy girl that she is, infused with the Darkness of Salvation or not and Sailor Saturn or not, she isn't really sure what is good in public.

 

Hotaru thinks in her mind, worriedly, “Why should I wear? What would Syrus-chan like? Well, he likes the Dark Magician Girl and she is cute and all, but Amara-papa and Michelle-mama might not like me wearing a costume so `suggestive' even through I'm grown up plenty.”

 

Just then a darker version of Hotaru's voice calls out, darkly and mentally, “Oh, come on, Hotaru! You are fifteen years old and you have a body as mature as a seventeen year old girl the age of Serena and the Inners! And besides you have a boyfriend that you want to impress, don't you?!”

 

Hotaru yells out, annoyed and mentally, “You, again?! Why can't only you `influence' me when we are fighting the Society of Light?”

 

The dark version of Hotaru's voice calls out, mentally, “Hello! I'm your `partner' other than the Spirit of Saturn within you! Now, come on, why do you live life a little more?”

 

Hotaru shakes her head and replies, mentally, “No, I can't! I really want to impress Syrus-chan, but I don't want people staring at me like those rotten kids did at my old school and think I'm a freak! Plus, I don't want to do anything that will worry Amara-papa and Michelle-mama! They really care about me! They've been my family and we've recently got back together after what that freakdid to all of us! My princess' heart was nearly shattered apart and she is still recovering after what has happened! Plus, you didn't exactly help when my princess nearly turned into a `demon' like that the Light of Destruction when her poor heart was pushed to her limit! She has only recently recovered from that nightmare of `Black Serenity'! I can't do anything that will worry her again! I really like this chance to dress up and have fun, but I don't want to do anything that will worry Serena-hime, Amara-papa, Michelle-mama, and Trista-mama!”

 

The dark version of Hotaru's voice sighs in Hotaru's mind and she says, in a dark droll tone, “Whatever.”

 

Just then a knock comes from the door and Hotaru calls out, “Come in.” Soon after, the door opens to reveal Zane Truesdale entering the room.

 

Hotaru asks Zane, curiously, “Zane-semapi, what are you doing here?”

 

Zane asks Hotaru, with a dark sick smile and dark curious tone, “Can't I see the girlfriend of my younger brother? Or is that against the code of the Sailor Scouts?”

 

Hotaru shakes her head and replies, with a nervous tone, “No! No! It's just that I hope that Amara-papa and Michelle-mama don't catch you in here. You know how protective of me they are.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Yes, I've been inform of that.” When Hotaru turns her head away from him, Zane closes the door, and secretly locks with it. Zane goes over to Hotaru and asks, “Choosing your costume?”

 

Hotaru looks at the costumes in front of her and she says, nervously, “Yes, but I need to impress Syrus-chan and not make Amara-papa, Michelle-mama, and Trista-mama worry about me as well as having people gawking at me.”

 

Zane asks Hotaru, curiously, “May I make a suggestion?” When Hotaru looks at Zane, Zane's eyes gives off a similar golden glow that Atem's eyes did when he hypnotized Tea and before Hotaru knew what was happening, she felt herself falling into a deep trance as her whole world turned gold. Zane tells Hotaru, “Hotaru, you are falling deep into a trance. Your will is fading away. Deeper and deeper that you got into the gold, the deeper you go into the trance. You are falling deeper . . . deeper . . . deeper . . .” As Zane said these words, Hotaru's eyes give off the golden glow and her mind and will melted away causing her to feel a bit good. Zane asks Hotaru, “How do you feel, Hotaru?”

 

Hotaru replies, her tone labored, “Pretty good . . . Zane-sempai . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “Excellent! Now, to give Syrus' girlfriend a confidence boost and turn her into a real `Firefly' causing her to give real `sparks' to Syrus as well as maybe some others.” Zane asks Hotaru, “Hotaru, why are you so shy and have a problem being with others?”

 

Hotaru replies, in labored tone, “Other kids picked on me . . . thought of me as a freak . . . because of my healing powers . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark plain tone, “Typical. A bunch of punk think they are so great by putting down a `freak'. It is no damn wonder that she has a confidence problem. Well, I think it is time to change all that. But first, time to find out the connection between her and Syi is strong through I really don't have much doubts about that. They are soul mates after all.” Zane asks Hotaru, “Hotaru, why do you like my brother so much?”

 

Hotaru replies, in her labored tone, “Syrus-chan . . . doesn't think of me as a freak . . . he understands why I'm so shy . . . because he know how it feels to get picked on . . . and treated different . . . knows why I'm not so confident in myself . . . he is really kind and caring . . .” Hotaru then blushes and she says, in her labored tone with a smile on her lips, “Plus . . . Syrus-chan . . . is very cute . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “Maybe Syi had a point when he keeps telling us mom told him that he had to looks of the family. There are plenty of girls that like Syi for his looks because of his `cuteness'. A lot of girls like me for my looks, but there are plenty of girl that like guys that are `cute' like Syi. Well, I think that Syi and Hotaru finally get a confident boost and plus, I'm going to assure that Syi only has eyes for Hotaru and Hotaru only has eyes for my brother. Well, they've `bonded' in the Silver Millennium after all.” Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark plain tone, “Hotaru, you will listen to me. The next words you will burn into your mind, do you understand?”

 

Hotaru replies, in her labored tone, “Yes, Zane-sempai . . . words . . . burn into my mind . . .” Within Hotaru, the spirit of Saturn prepares to stop Zane, but `Dark Hotaru', the `dark side' to Hotaru created by the Darkness of Salvation, managed to stop her for the moment.

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark plain tone, “Now, Hotaru, you love only Syi. He is your soulmate for life. You love him with your heart and soul. You will never have eyes for anyone else, but him. He is the greatest guy in your life for all of your life.”

 

Hotaru replies, in her labored tone, “Syrus-chan . . . only guy in my life . . . love him with my heart and soul . . . greatest guy in my life . . .”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, in a dark plain tone, “He is so cute and handsome that you can't help to feel warm inside of you. You can't help, but to imagine his lips touching yours. When his lips touch yours, it make feel like you are melting and your whole body begins to surge with pleasure.”

 

Hotaru gives a smile and replies, in a labored tone, “Syrus-chan . . . cute and handsome . . . feel warm inside . . . can't help to imagine . . . his lips touching mine . . . so tasty . . . lips touching . . . feels like I'm melting . . . my body . . . surge with pleasure . . .”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark plain tone, “When you think of Syrus, you also feel strong and confident about yourself. You know that your body is beautiful and you can't help to want to display through not in any unsightly manner. However, you can't help it, but want to display your teenage body to Syrus in private just between you and him. It makes you feel real good that you want to do that.”

 

Hotaru gets a blush on her cheeks, a smile, and she says, in her labored tone with a giggle, “Think of Syrus-chan . . . I'm strong and confident . . . my body is beautiful . . . can't help to display it . . . not in a unsightly manner . . . but I like it . . . when I `display' myself to Syrus-chan . . . in private . . . makes me feel good . . .”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark sly smile and a dark plain tone, “When you are with Syrus, you are confident and strong. Your shyness is nothing, but a memory. You feel good about yourself and you wish and need to live your life more fully, but you know not to make any foolish choices that would endanger you, your health, those you care about, and especially Syrus. However, you will not tolerate any bullies picking on you, Syrus-chan, or anyone else that you care about. You are not afraid of them, you will feel strong and confident and you can confront them. You love your guardians a lot and know to listen to them since they are older and thus wiser than you, but only when it is your safety and good. However, unless it is for your safety or well-being, you will have the strength stand up to your guardians if their protection of you is unnecessary especially in matters with your love-life with Syrus. You are a teenage girl and you should remind them, even through you are a Sailor Scout, through you don't reveal it to anyone expect those that you secret, that you are maturing and are able to make your own choices.”

 

Hotaru replies, in her labored tone, “When I'm with Syi-chan, I am confident . . . I am strong . . . shyness is just a memory . . . need to live my life to the fullest . . . don't make foolish choice that would endanger . . . Syrus-chan, Serena-hime, Amara-papa, Michelle-mama, Trista-mama, my friends . . . I will not tolerate bullies . . . won't fear them . . . I'm strong and confident . . . I will confront them . . . love guardian . . . listen to them . . . However . . . stand up to Amara-papa, Michelle-mama, and Trista-mama, when protection is unnecessary . . . I am maturing and growing girl . . . remind my guardians . . . I am able to make own choices . . .”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark sly smile and dark plain tone, “You also can't help to imagine doing `naughty erotic' things with Syrus, but you will make sure that only `reveal' them when you are alone with Syrus and with Syrus only. You also desire to dress up in sexy female Duel Monsters costumes for Syrus personally, but only in private. You also must remember that since you are a girl, Syrus is dominate in your relationship and you are submissive. With others, even your guardian, you can stand up to them, but you can't `talk back' to Syrus unless it interferes with your morals or it is important that you do so.”

 

Hotaru replies, with her labored tone and a blush in her cheeks, “Can't help think about doing `naughty things' with Syrus-chan . . . keep them to myself . . . will only `reveal' them to Syrus-chan . . . and only in private with only Syrus-chan . . . desire to dress up in sexy female Duel Monsters for him alone . . . Syrus-chan is dominate . . . I'm submissive . . . I listen to Syrus-chan . . . don't argue with him . . . unless it interferes with my morals . . . or important for me to do so . . .”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark plain tone, “Other than what I have told you, you will remain as you have always been. The way that people know you as expect with the changes that I have told you.”

 

Hotaru replies, with her labored tone, “I will stay like the way I've always been . . . expect with the changes . . . that Zane-sempai . . . told me to be . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his minds, with a dark sick smile, “I think that's about right. I can always re-hypnotize her if I need to make some important changes.” Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark plain tone, “Now, when I say `Wake up, Soldier of Saturn!' and snap my fingers, you will awaken from this trance.”

 

Hotaru replies, in her labored tone, “When Zane-sempai says . . . Wake up, Soldier of Saturn . . . awaken . . .”

 

The golden glow around Zane's eyes fade away and Zane snaps his fingers and he says, with a dark sick smile, “Wake up, Soldier of Saturn!” Hotaru blinks her eyes several times, shakes her head, and she looks directly at Zane. Zane asks Hotaru, “Are you okay, Hotaru?”

 

Hotaru gives a smile and says, with a kind tone, “Yes, I am Zane-semapi. In fact, I feel . . . better than I felt in years for some reason.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sick smile, “Hmm, I wonder why.” Zane asks Hotaru, with a dark sick smile, “Anyway, do you have any ideas what to costume to wear?”

 

Hotaru looks at the costumes, gives a mischievous grin never seen in Hotaru before, and she replies, “Oh, I have a good idea now.”

 

Zane tells Hotaru, with a dark sick smile, “Glad to hear it. I'll leave you alone so you can get ready.” As Hotaru prepares her costume with a mischievous grin not seen in her before, Zane secretly unlocks the door and he thinks in his mind, as he opens the door, “That takes care of step one and now, it is on to step two and Syrus.” Soon after, Zane leaves the room while Hotaru looks around the costumes.

 

Hotaru thinks in her mind, with a mischievous grin, “Mmm . . . I wonder . . . which one would get Syrus-chan to get me to notice me more . . . *giggle* *giggle* . . . I can't wait to see the expression on my Syrus-chan's face when I get into a cute and sexy costume . . . Maybe I should make that Mina-chan isn't the only Dark Magician Girl around here . . .” As Hotaru happily giggles about what costume she would wear, the spirit of Saturn and `Dark Hotaru', who looks exactly like Hotaru in her `Dark Civilian Form', confront each other in Hotaru's mind.

 

Saturn says, with a deadly serious tone, “Why did you allow Zane to do that?!”

 

Dark Hotaru tells Saturn, with a dark smile, “Calm down, Saturn! If Zane was planning to do something like that asshole did, I would have allowed you to stop him and in fact, I would have helped you. However, I knew what he was up to. He wants Hotaru to have more confidence in herself and wants to make their relationship a bit more `interesting', would you say, Saturn? Anyway, isn't Hotaru happier now she is more confident in herself and besides, he didn't change her too much. Plus, she and Syrus were always meant for each other, remember?”

 

Saturn gives a rare blush in her cheeks and replies, plainly, “Yes, I remember. I know that Syrus is the reincarnation of my beloved. But if Zane Truesdale does anything to him, I swear in the name of Saturn, I will . . .!”

 

Dark Hotaru tells Saturn, with a dark smile, “Easy, Saturn! Zane is Syrus' brother and even in this `Hell Kaiser' persona of his, family is still family, Zane is going to make it that Syrus is just as confident as Hotaru is now and make their relationship more `interesting' on Syrus' end. Now, come on, don't worry about it.”

 

Saturn says, with a blush in her cheeks and a serious tone, “Fine, I will let this go . . . for now. However, if Zane tries anything with Syrus, Hotaru, or anyone of the others, I will make sure that he doesn't try it again.”

 

Dark Hotaru tells Saturn, with a dark smile, “Good.” Back in the `Real World', Hotaru can't help to think about Syrus more and having plenty of `fun' with him as well as how he will react with the new costume that she is preparing to wear causing her to blush and giggle happily.

 

(A short time soon after; within another room in the Ra Yellow dorm)

 

Inside of another room within the Ra Yellow dorm, we find a pretty nervous Syrus Truesdale looking around at costumes and stuff for Duel Monsters' Spirit Day.

 

Syrus thinks in his mind, looking at the costumes, “Oh, man! What costume do I pick? I've got a girlfriend of my own now. I need to dress up to impress her. But what if Hotaru-chan doesn't like what I dress up as? What if I dress up in something dumb and make us both look stupid? Oh, I don't know what to do.”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, with a dark plain tone, “What's the problem, Syi?” Syrus yelps and he turns to see his older brother, Zane Truesdale, enter the room.

 

Syrus tells Zane, “Sheesh! Man, big bro! You gave me a scare there!”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “Well, you should learn to expect the unexpected and learn not to be surprised by everything.”

 

Syrus tells Zane, solemnly, “Easy for you to say.” Syrus turns his head away allowing Zane to secretly lock the door after he closes it behind him.

 

Zane comes up to Syrus' right side and asks, curiously, “Trying to figure out what costume to wear for Duel Monsters' Spirit Day?”

 

Syrus tells Zane, with a nervous tone, “Yeah, I am. I just trying to figure out a costume that I don't make myself look dumb in front of Hotaru and the others.”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “How about I make a suggestion?”

 

Syrus looks at Zane and he asks, curiously, “What is it, big bro?” Just then Zane's eyes gives off a golden glow and Syrus gasps in shock before he continues to fall deeper and deeper into a trance.

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “Syi, you are falling into a trance. The gold color is sapping your will. You are falling deeper and deeper into the gold. It makes feel good. Your will is fading away as you fade into the gold. Deeper and deeper until your will fades away completely . . .” Syrus can feel himself falling deeper and deeper into the gold color and his will melting away as he starts to feel pleasure from it. Zane asks Syrus, with a dark sick smile, “How do you feel Syi?”

 

Syrus replies, in a labored tone, “I . . . feel good . . . big bro . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile, “Good, Syi. Now, Syrus, why do you like Hotaru so much?”

 

Syrus replies, in a labored tone, “Hotaru . . . understands me . . . she has problems in her confidence like me . . . she knows how it feels to be bulled . . . she is so kind . . . so gentle . . . she has a nice laugh . . . friendly . . . and she is very beautiful and cute at the same time . . . that rivals my `card crush', the Dark Magician Girl . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile on his lips, “Same old, Syi. Always looking at the cute and beautiful girls and with the same old `card crush' with the Dark Magician Girl, but I think it is time for Syi to have a `change in heart' and focus on one girl in her life.” Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “Now, Syi, you will listen to my minds and make sure that you burn them into your mind and heart. Do you understand?”

 

Syrus replies, in his labored tone, “Listen to big bro . . . put his words in my heart . . . and my mind . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “Syrus, you have only one love in your life. And it is Hotaru. She is the most beautiful girl in your life and you only have eyes for her and her alone. You love Hotaru with all of your heart and soul and there is no other girl in your life than her.”

 

Syrus replies, in his labored tone, “Hotaru . . . only girl in my life . . . most beautiful girl . . . only girl for me . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “You can't help to imagine you and Hotaru in `erotic situations'. You desire the touch of her skin, the feeling of your lips with hers, the tasting of her mouth, her lips, her saliva, and the feeling her soft lips on your body as well. You feel aroused and it gives you pleasure by thinking about her that way and the same way when you see her in sexy clothes and costumes. However, you will only reveal that when you are alone and only with Hotaru.”

 

Syrus replies, with a smile and a blush and in a labored tone, “Hotaru and I . . . `naughty situations' . . . desire her touch . . . her lips . . . make me aroused . . . I feel pleasure . . . love in her sexy clothes and costumes . . . only reveal this side when alone . . . or with Hotaru-chan . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “When you think of Hotaru, it makes you feel confident and strong. You don't feel shy at all with Hotaru, you feel confident in yourself. Your shyness is a thing in the past. When you are with Hotaru as well, you feel confident and strong. You are confident in your abilities to duel since you know you defeated other duelists, including those dorks. You know that you can win and you are confident in your abilities since you know that Hotaru is always by you. You will duel with confidence and strength in your abilities from now on without fear, but the right amounts of caution.”

 

Syrus says, in a labored tone, “Think of Hotaru-chan . . . I am confident and strong . . . not shy at all . . . shyness is part of my past . . . with Hotaru-chan, I am confident and strong . . . I know I can beat any opponent . . . Hotaru-chan is always with me . . . duel with confidence and strength in my abilities, but . . . with caution . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “You will never allow Hotaru to get hurt. You know that you can and you will stand up to bullies. You will never allow Hotaru to be teased, put down, controlled, or told what to do by anyone unless it is by her guardians and only if it is necessary for Hotaru's safety. You are confident in your abilities to stand up to bullies and you will be strong against them. You will help her Hotaru live her life to the fullest.”

 

Syrus replies, in a labored tone, “ . . . never allow Hotaru-chan to get hurt . . . I can stand up to bullies . . . never allowed Hotaru to be teased, put down, controlled, or told what to do . . . unless it is by her guardians, Amara-sempai . . . Michelle-sempai . . . Trista-sempai . . . but only if it necessary for Hotaru-chan's safety . . . I can stand up to bullies . . . be strong against them . . . I will allow Hotaru to live life to the fullest . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “However, in your relationship, you are the boyfriend. You are dominate and she is the submissive. She is to do what you say unless it is against her morals and the safety and health of her and you. You will never endanger Hotaru. It will hurt Hotaru and you will never hurt Hotaru, the one that you love”

 

Syrus replies, in his labored tone, “I'm dominate . . . Hotaru-chan is submissive . . . Hotaru is to listen to me . . . expect stuff against her morals . . . and against our safety and health . . . I will never endanger Hotaru . . . never hurt Hotaru . . . the one that I love . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “However, you will remember that Hotaru is a growing teenage girl. She is fifteen and becoming an adult woman. You will treat her to match her mature age, but you will remember that you are the boyfriend and Hotaru is the submissive. It means that she will listen to you in your relationship unless it is against her morals, yours and Hotaru's safety, and yours and Hotaru's health.”

 

Syrus tells Zane, in his labored tone, “Hotaru . . . growing teenage girl . . . becoming a woman . . . treat her with her maturing age . . . I'm still her boyfriend . . . I'm dominate . . . she is submissive . . . she needs to listen to me in our relationship . . . unless against morals, our safety, and our health . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “However, you love thinking about her beautiful face and her beautiful body. You love with when Hotaru dresses up in sexy costumes for you including sexy female Duel Monsters costumes. You love it when Hotaru dresses in sexy costumes for you personally and you can't help to think some `naughty erotic things' about Hotaru because she is the most beautiful girl in the world to you. However, you will make sure that you are in private and with only Hotaru when you think or do these things.”

 

Syrus says, with a lustful smile and a labored tone, “Hotaru . . . most beautiful girl in the world . . . love it when she dresses up in sexy female Duel Monsters costumes . . . so beautiful . . . make sure that I'm alone or with Hotaru-chan . . . when I think or do those things . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “Expect for the changes that I've told you, you will act the same as before.”

 

Syrus replies, with a labored tone, “I will be the same . . . expect for changes you told me, Zane . . .”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile and a dark plain tone, “Now, when I say, `Time to wake up, little guy!', you will awaken from this trace.”

 

Syrus says, with a labored tone, “When big bro says . . . Time to wake up, little guy . . . awaken . . .”

 

The golden glow from Zane's eyes stops and Zane tells Syrus, “Time to wake up, little guy!” Syrus blinks his eyes several times, shakes his head, and looks at his little brother.

 

Syrus holds his head and replies, curiously, “Whoa! What happened?”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark sick smile, “You blanked out when I told you my suggestion for your costume.”

 

Syrus replies, nervously, “Oops. Sorry.”

 

Zane tells Syrus, with a dark plain tone, “Whatever, Syi. I think I would be better leaving it to you.”

 

Syrus looks at the costumes and he says, with a confident smile not seen in him before, “Wow! For some reason, I believe I know what I want to wear! And I know that it will impress everyone else and especially Hotaru-chan!” Zane sees Syrus' confident smile, he gives a dark sly smile, he unlocks the door, and he leaves the room. Syrus thinks in his mind, with a mischievous smile, “Hey, I've got an awesome idea! Everyone might think that I might go as the Dark Magician, the male counterpart to the Dark Magician Girl, one of my favorite female monsters, but I think I've got another idea. However, I wonder what Hotaru-chan will go as.” Soon after, `naughty images' of Hotaru in sexy female Duel Monsters costumes and Syrus couldn't help to giggle and blush at those thoughts.

 

(Later that morning; In front of the Slifer Red dorms)

 

In the later hours of that morning, we find ourselves in front of the Slifer Red dorms filled with decorations and students in a mixture of regular Red, Yellow, and Blue Academy uniforms and various male and female Duel Monsters' costumes. Within the crowd of students is our heroes and heroines where we find Keiko wearing a cute Fox Fire costume, Yusuke wearing a Vampire Lord with his arms crossed in front of his chest, and Hikari has a pretty sexy Vampire Lady costume on. Joining Kagome and her friends, Inuyasha and her friends from the Feudal Era, we find Kagome wearing a sexy and beautiful Wingweaver costume that includes a set of fake angel wings coming out of her back. On the meanwhile, with Jaden's friends, we find Chazz wearing an Armed Dragon LV10 costume with his head coming out of the dragon's `mouth', Jasmine is wearing a sexy Cyber Harpie costume, Mindy is wearing a sexy, but not unsightly Guardian Elma costume, Tyranno is wearing a Black Tyranno costume fitted for his size with his head coming out of front of the neck, Bastion is wearing Lithmus Doom Swordsman costume, Atticus is in a handsome Flame Swordsman costume, and we find Jaden and Alexis together with Jaden wearing an Elemental Hero Sparkman costume with Alexis wearing a sexy Ice Master costume, including the ice-bluff staff with an ice-blue snowflake shaped top. Finally, we join our Sailor Scouts as we find Lita wearing a sexy, but unsightly Amazoness Swordswoman costume, Ami is blushing as she is wearing a sexy, but not unsightly Water Omotics costume, which causes Bastion to blush at her, Rei is wearing a sexy Familiar-Possessed Hiita costume, Mina is wearing a very sexy Injection Fairy Lily costume with a large fake needle, her hair is dyed pink with washable hair dye, and a pair of fairy wings coming out, Darien is wearing a Dark Magician Knight costume, Trista is wearing a sexy Succubus Knight costume, Michelle is wearing a sexy Aquarian Alessa costume, Amara is wearing pretty sexy Hand of Nephthys costume, but she had her arms crossed in front of her chest and she looks pretty cross about it, and finally, we find our Moon Princess in a beautiful silvery and gold, tight-fitting, and pretty sexy Guardian Angel Joan costume.

 

Yugi, Tristan, Joey, Mai, Ishizu, and Marik are with them and Joey says, amazed, “Oh, wow! All of you look great!”

 

Keiko asks, curiously, “You really think so?”

 

Marik says, with a kind smile, “Yeah. You do. All of your costumes are well-made.”

 

Mai looks at Amara and Yusuke and she says, with a plain tone, “Through not all of you think so.”

 

Mina says, with a giggle, “Michelle forced Amara to wear that costume.”

 

Michelle says, with her classic smile, “I think that it looks very nice.” Amara gives a slight groan and sighs.

 

Jaden asks Yusuke, “What's the matter with you?”

 

Atticus tells Jaden, with a sly smile, “Keiko and Hikari forced him to wear that costume.”

 

Jaden replies, with a nervous smile, “Oh.”

 

Hikari says, with a smile, “I think that he looks pretty cute.”

 

Yusuke replies, with a snort, “You would, Kari.”

 

Rei asks Ami, who looks nervous, “Hey, Ami, what's the matter with you?”

 

Ami replies, nervously, “I don't think I should wear this costume. I never wore something like this before.”

 

Mina tells Ami, with a smile, “Don't say anything like that Ami. You look great!”

 

Ami replies, still nervous, “You are just saying that.”

 

Bastion tells Ami, with a kind smile, “No, Ami-chan, you look perfect.”

 

Ami gives a wide blush and she asks, “You really think so, Bastion-sempai?”

 

Bastion tells Ami, with a kind smile, “I would never tell a lie about something like this, Ami-chan. I think that costume looks perfect on you.”

 

Ami tells Bastion in reply, blushing red in her cheeks, “T-Thank you, Bastion-sempai.”

 

Lita whispers to Ami, with a sly grin, “I think someone likes you.”

 

Ami gives a wide flush and she whispers to Lita, embarrassed, “Don't say that, Lita!”

 

Tyranno is admiring Lita for how beautiful she looks, but then he sees several guys from Ra Yellow ogling at Lita and Tyranno yells at them, angrily, “Hey! What are you looking at?!”

 

The Ra Yellow yelp out in shock and one of them say, with fear in his eyes, “Nothing!”

 

Tyranno's eyes turn into dinosaur-like silts, again, and he yells at them, angrily, “You, soldier boys, better not be getting any damn `bad ideas' or I will kick you around worse than a drill sergeant! Now, retreat or get turned into dino chow!” The three Ra Yellow boys run away while the rest of our heroes and heroines look around in amazement.

 

Mina tells Lita, with a sly grin, “I think that soldier boy has a major crush on you.”

 

Lita tells Mina, with a nervous smile, “No way! I mean, he is a real hunk . . And I mean a real HUNK with those muscular arms and that tan . . . he kind of reminds me of my old boyfriend.”

Overhearing this, Rei tells Lita, with a sly smile, “Every guy reminds you of your old boyfriend, Lita!”

 

Serena goes over to Darien and she says, with a smile, “Wow, Darien! You really look great!”

 

Darien gives a slight blush at Serena as she seems to glow with her Guardian Angel Joan costume and Darien tells Serena, with a little red in his cheeks, “And you look like a real angel in that costume, Serena.”

 

Serena gives a wide red hue on her cheeks and she tells Darien, with a loving smile and a giggle, “Oh, Darien . . .” Serena then kisses Darien right on the lips and when they release from the kiss, Serena asks Darien, “By the way, Darien, do you know where Rini and the Amazon Quartet are?”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “Right here, Serena!” Everyone looks to the source to see Rini in her own child-size and made Injection Fairy Lily costume on her own with the Sailor Quartet in their civilian forms around her. Rini says, with a smile, “What do you think?”

 

Mina tells Rini, with a smile, “Looking good, Rini!”

 

The Sailor Quartet had toys and candy with them and PallaPalla exclaims, “This is so much fun!”

 

JunJun says, with a sly grin, “You know it, PallaPalla!”

 

VesVes says, with a wide grin, “Yeah! Man! This is one incredible holiday!”

 

CereCere says, with a smile, “For once, VesVes, I agree.”

 

Trista says, with a smile, “Small Lady, I see you and your guardians are enjoying yourselves.”

 

Rini replies, with a wide grin, “You know it, Trista!” Rini then asks, curiously, “By the way, have you seen Hotaru around?”

 

Serena replies, curiously, “No. Neither have any of us since she was choosing her costume in the Ra Yellow dorms.”

 

Ami says, concerned, “I hope she is okay.”

 

Rei tells Ami, plainly, “You know how Hotaru is after all this time and you can't blame her. She is quite shy and I don't think that she will be in a costume that will make too many people notice her.”

 

Jasmine says, with a curious tone, “Speaking of people who are shy around others, we are missing our little Truesdale.”

 

Alexis says, with a serious tone, “Syi and Zane are both missing.”

 

Bastion tells Alexis, “Well, knowing Zane in his current `condition', he is off battling with Society members or at least trying to find a good duel.”

 

Jasmine tells Bastion, with a dark plain tone, “Bastion, can we keep our minds off of those dorks for today?”

 

Bastion replies, nervously, “Sorry, Jasmine.”

 

Atticus says, with a sly grin, “Come on, dude, don't be! Let's forget about those dweebs and have some fun!”

 

Mindy asks, curiously, “Wonder what Syrus will come as?”

 

Chazz says, with his usual sly grin and snobbish tone, “Knowing him, he will be the Dark Magician.”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Wrong, Chazz!” Everyone looks to the source to see Syrus in a well-fitting and made Black Luster Soldier costume fitted for Syrus' size.

 

Ami says, amazed, “Wow! Syrus is the Black Luster Soldier!”

 

Syrus tells everyone, with a sly grin, “What do you think everyone?”

 

Alexis tells Syrus, with a smile, “That's a great costume, Syrus!”

 

Mindy says, with a smile, “Yeah! It is!”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, nastily, “Oh, yeah! He might look good, but he is still a little twerp!” Everyone looks to see none other than Missy, wearing a sexy Insect Princess costume, walking towards them.

 

Alexis says, with a snort, “Oh, great. Just who we didn't want to see.”

 

Missy goes over to Syrus and tells him, “Your friend might be the reason that I'm not with those fucking dorks that messed with my head, but that doesn't mean I have to be nice, squirt.”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, annoyed, “Don't you call Syrus-chan a squirt Missy!” Everyone looks to the source of that voice to see none other than our Soldier of Saturn, Hotaru, wearing sexy Dark Magician Girl costume that display much of her well-developed bust, through not in an unsightly manner, with a matching blond wig and the same pink marking under her eyes as in the Dark Magician Girl card with a cross look on her face.

 

Amara, Michelle, and Trista are shocked by what Hotaru is wearing and Michelle asks, stunned, “Is that our little Firefly?”

 

Mina yells out, amazed, “Oh, wow! Hotaru is the Dark Magician Girl and plus, she looks really good in it!”

 

Ami says, amazed, “I never thought that Hotaru would wear something like that.”

 

Hotaru goes up to Missy and she tells her, in a strong and stern tone not heard in her before, “I would watch what you say about my boyfriend, Missy.”

 

Alexis says, amazed, “Hotaru sounds different.”

 

Missy tells Hotaru, not threatened, “And what are you going to do about, freak?”

 

Amara tells Missy, with an annoyed tone, “Hey! I watch about what you say about my daughter, Missy!”

 

Hotaru tells Amara, with a confident smile not seen in her before, “Don't worry, Amara-papa, I can handle this little flea!”

 

Lita asks, stunned by what Hotaru just said, “Did Hotaru-chan just say that?”

 

Missy states, with a sly grin, “So, the little `Goth girl' has gained a backbone, huh?”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a confident tone, “When my Syrus-chan is being insulted like that, you will find that I've gained more than a backbone, Missy. What you said wasn't nice and I want you to take it back.”

 

Missy tells Hotaru, with a serious tone, “You are not the boss of me, Tomoe!”

 

Syrus confronts Missy and he tells her, with a serious tone not heard in him before, “Hey, watch you say about my girlfriend or you will be sorry, Missy! Remember, I kicked your butt once before and I know that I can do it again without even trying!”

 

Missy yells out, angrily, “What was that twerp?!”

 

Tyranno yells out, amazed, “Whoa! Is that really Private Truesdale?!”

 

Mindy says, stunned, “He sounds . . . different.”

 

Jasmine says, amazed, “He is standing up to Missy!”

 

Chazz states, in his usual snobbish tone, “When that little twerp get a backbone all of sudden?”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a sigh, “I think that we should settle this the same way that we settle everything around here.” Hotaru then takes her dueling deck out of her costume and displays it.

 

Missy says, with a sly grin, “Okay, Tomoe, now, you are talking my language!” Missy takes out her dueling deck from her costume and then yells out, seriously, “All right, we need two duel disks over here!”

 

One male Obelisk Blue students brings two duel disks over and he says, winching in slight fear, “Here you go!”

 

Missy tells Hotaru, with a sly smile, “Don't be crying when I win, Tomoe.”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a confident smile, “I won't be crying because I won't lose.”

 

Missy tells Hotaru, with a confident tone, “Ha! I already have seen that zombie deck of yours! I know how you duel!”

 

Hotaru says, with a sly smile not seen in her before, “Who said I was using my zombie deck? I got a brand new that I wanted to try out!”

 

Serena asks, surprised, “Hotaru has got a new deck?”

 

Yugi tells Serena, with a smile, “She does! She showed to me and Atem just before all of you left for Demon World.”

 

Missy tells Hotaru, confidently, “It doesn't what kind of deck you use! I'll still win!”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a strong tone, “We'll see Missy!” The two of them attached their duel disks to their left wrists and insert their dueling decks inside with the two of them going to the dueling field set up in front of the Slifer Red dorm.

 

On the meanwhile, Syrus gets a sly smile on his lips and thinks, “I know that you can win, Hotaru-chan! I believe in you, but just in case Missy is a sore loser and knowing her, she is, I think that I will have an extra surprise waiting for her.” Syrus giggles mischievous and leaves while the others don't notice.

 

However, Hotaru sees Syrus leave with a mischievous look on his face and Hotaru thinks with a giggle, “It looks like my cute little teddy bear or toy soldier is up to something! And most likely, Missy, here, won't like it! I can't wait for what kind of trick you've got my Syrus-chan!” Hotaru and Missy activate their duel disks, their life-points counters displaying 4000 life-points per duelist, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

“Duel!” Hotaru and Missy yell out in unison as their duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Hotaru: 4000

Missy: 4000

 

Mina yells out, strongly, “Come on, Hotaru-chan! Show this diva whose boss!”

 

Rini calls out, seriously, “Yeah! Squash her like a flea!”

 

Serena tells Rini, scolding, “Rini, watch your language!” Serena says, looking at Missy with an annoyed tone, “Even through the person in question deserves it.”

 

Missy draws one card from her deck and calls out, “I'll start things off, Tomoe!” Missy puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “I summon Insect Knight in defense mode!” Soon after, Insect Knight (1900/1600) comes to the field in defense mode. Missy puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I'll place one card face-down and I'll end my turn!”

 

Hotaru draws one card from her deck and yells out, “My move!” Hotaru puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “First, I play my Double Fusion spell card! At a cost of five hundred life-points, I can perform two fusion summons now!” Hotaru's life-points drop by 500 points, Hotaru discards Masaki the Legendary Swordsman (1100/1100) and Flame Manipulator (900/1000) monster cards, the two monsters appear on the field, and they go into a fusion vortex while Hotaru gets a fusion monster card from her fusion deck. Hotaru puts the card on her duel disk and calls out, “Now, I summon my Flame Swordsman to the field!” Out of the fusion vortex, Flame Swordsman (1800/1600) comes to the field, Hotaru discards a Dark Magician (2500/2100) in her hand with the fusion monster card on her duel disk and she calls out, with a determined tone, “Next, I fuse my Swordsman with my Dark Magician!”

 

Missy yells out, stunned, “No way! When do you have that card?!”

 

Jaden asks, amazed, “Whoa! When did Hotaru get a Dark Magician?!”

 

Yugi tells Jaden, with a sly smile, “Atem and I gave her one.”

 

Everyone looks at Yugi amazed and Alexis asks, stunned, “You did, Yugi-sempai?”

 

Yugi nods his head and says, “Yep! Hotaru seems to be a nice girl and we decided to add a few cards of ours to her deck with her knowing of course. We had a few extra versions of our favorite monsters handy and we decided to let Hotaru have them.”

 

Jaden tells Yugi, with a smile, “That's so sweet of you, Yugi-sempai!” Soon after, Dark Magician comes to the field, fuses with Flame Swordsman in a fusion vortex, and Hotaru takes a fusion monster card from her fusion deck.

 

Hotaru puts the card on her duel disk and calls out, “Meet Dark Flare Knight!” Out of the fusion vortex, Dark Flare Knight (2200/800) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Missy states, with a snobby tone, “So, what?!” Missy thinks in her mind, with a sly grin, “Ha! Little Miss Tomoe thinks that she has got the drop on me, but when I spring my trap card, her rotten monster will be gone and she will vulnerable to my bugs!”

 

Hotaru puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “Next, I summon Breaker, the Magical Warrior in attack mode!” Soon after, Breaker, the Magical Warrior (1600/1000-1900/1000) comes to the field in attack mode. Hotaru says, with a sly smile, “You see, my new friends get a counter on him giving him a three hundred point boost, but if I get rid of that counter, he can take one of your spell or trap cards!”

 

Missy yells out, stunned, “Oh no!”

 

Hotaru calls out, “Breaker, my friend, take this bully's face-down card!” Breaker's stats reduce from 1900/1000 to 1600/1000, Breaker swings his sword, and an energy wave slices Missy's face-down card, a Michizure trap card, right in half.

 

Rini yells out, excitedly, “All right, Hotaru, take it to her!”

 

Hotaru exclaims, “You heard Rini, Dark Flare Knight, attack her Insect Knight!” Dark Flare Knight blasts Insect Knight with a beam of black and red flames and destroys it, but since it was in defense mode, Missy doesn't lose life-points from this attack. Hotaru then calls out, “Breaker, attack Missy right now!” Breaker slices Missy's chest and she yelps out as she loses 1600 life-points.

 

Missy growls in annoyance, “You will pay for that, Tomoe!”

 

Hotaru puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, with a confident smile, “Don't be so sure, Missy! Now, I play my Card of Sanctity! Both of us must draw until we have six cards in our hands!” Hotaru draws six cards from her deck while Missy draws two cards from her deck, Hotaru puts three cards in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, “Now, I place these three cards face-down on the field and I'll end my turn!”

 

Current Score:

Hotaru: 4000

Missy: 2400

 

Missy draws one card from her deck and calls out, annoyed, “My move!”

 

Hotaru pushes a button on her duel disk and calls out, “I play my trap! Drop-Off!” Hotaru's face-down card is revealed to be the Drop-Off trap card and Hotaru says, with a smile, “Sorry, Missy, now, you have put that card in the grave!”

 

Missy looks at the card she just drew, finds it is her Insect Princess (1900/1200) monster card, she puts the card into her graveyard slot, and she yells out, annoyed, “You will pay for that brat!” Missy puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “I play my Pinch Hopper!” Soon after, Pinch Hopper (1000/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Missy puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play my spell card known as Multiplication of Ants! This card allows me to sacrifice my Pinch Hopper to summon two Army Ant Tokens in attack mode!” Pinch Hopper vanishes and two Army Ant (500/1200 X 2) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Alexis says, with a sigh, “Not this again.”

 

Missy puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, with a sly grin, “And if you had forgotten, little girl, my Pinch Hopper allows me to summon any Insect monster from my hand when it goes from the field to the grave! And I choose my Insect Queen!” Soon after, Insect Queen (2200/2400) comes to the field in attack mode. Missy says, with a sly grin, “And now, my Queen gains two hundred attack points for every insect on the field, including her highness!” Insect Queen's stats rise from 2200/2400 to 2800/2400! Missy puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play Monster Reborn to bring back my Insect Princess that you sent to the graveyard with that nasty trap card!” Soon after, Insect Princess (1900/1200) comes back to the field in attack mode. Missy says, with a sly grin, “This gives her highness an additional two hundred points.” Insect Queen's stats rise from 2800/2400 to 3000/2400! Missy calls out, strongly, “Insect Princess, take out that commoner, Breaker the Magical Warrior!” Insect Princess leaps into the air, flaps her wings, creating a large wind, and Hotaru's Breaker is destroyed, costing her 300 life-points. Missy then yells out, “Now, I sacrifice one of my two Army Ant Tokens to allow my Queen to attack!” One of the two Army Ant Token vanishes, sending energy into Insect Queen, lowering its stats to 2800/2400, and it fires green energy at Dark Flare Knight and destroying it, but her life-points didn't reduce at all.

 

Mina says, annoyed, “Rotten bugs!”

 

Yugi tells Mina, with a sly smile, “Don't worry, Mina! Missy just made a major mistake!”

 

Lita asks, curiously, “She did?”

 

Joey says, with a sly grin, “Yeah! She attacked her Dark Flare Knight!”

 

Ami yells out, amazed, “Wait a minute! Hotaru's life-points didn't change!”

 

Missy calls out, stunned, “Wait! How come your life-points didn't change at all?”

 

Hotaru gives a sly smile not seen in her before and she replies, “Dark Flare Knight's special ability! When it is destroyed, all damage to me goes to zero, but that's not all!” A card comes out of Hotaru's deck and she puts into her hand. She then puts it on her duel disk, and calls out, “Since you destroyed my Dark Flare Knight, Mirage Knight comes to take his place!” Just then a pillar of flames comes onto the field that turns into Mirage Knight (2800/2000) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Missy says, with a sneer, “So, what?! It is only equal in power to my Queen!”

 

Hotaru pushes two buttons on her duel disk and calls out, “That's what you think! I play my face-downs! The trap card known as One-on-One Fight and the spell card, Rush Recklessly!” Hotaru's face-down cards are revealed to be One-on-One Fight trap card and Rush Recklessly Quick-Spell card! Hotaru says, with a smile, “First, my Rush Recklessly gives my Mirage Knight an extra seven attack points and my One-on-One Fight forces our two strongest monsters to battle! So, it is my Knight versus your Queen!” Mirage Knight's stats rise from 2800/2000 to 3500/2000! Hotaru tells Missy, with a sly smile, “However, you should know one more thing. When my monster battles another monster, it gains the equivalent of the monster's original attack points.”

Missy yells out, shocked, “Wait! That means . . .!”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a smile, “That means my Knight gains twenty-two hundred more attack points!” Mirage Knight's stats rise from 3500/2000 to 5700/2000 and Hotaru says, with a smile, “Thanks, Missy! I knew all about your deck in your duel with Syrus-chan and I planned for it! You fell into my trap!”

 

Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Serena yells out, amazed, “Hotaru-chan had all of this planned all along?!”

 

Ami says, amazed, “It would seem so, Serena.”

 

Amara, Michelle, and Trista are amazed and Michelle says, stunned, “Firefly . . .” Soon after, Mirage Knight slices through Insect Queen, destroying it, and costing Missy 2900 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Hotaru: 3700

Missy: 0

 

With the end of the duel, Missy slumps in stunned shock as the final dueling hologram fade away with Hotaru giving a sly confident smirk never seen in her before.

 

Missy says, stunned, “It . . . It can't be . . . I lost that shrimp's girlfriend?!”

 

Hotaru tells Missy, with a smile, “That's Hotaru Tomoe, Missy! It was an honor to duel you, through it would be more honorable if you would just be nicer once in a while.”

 

Mina yells out, excitedly, “Way to go, Hotaru-chan! You kicked butt out there!”

 

Jaden calls out, with a sly smile, “That was a sweet duel, Hotaru!”

 

Alexis tells Hotaru, with a smile, “That was great, Hotaru! You did awesome out there!”

 

Hotaru tells Alexis, with a kind smile, “Thank you, Alexis-sempai!” Missy couldn't believe that she lost so easily to Hotaru and a look of anger and rage on her face. Soon after, she gets to her feet and gives an angered yell.

 

When everyone looks at Missy, she brawls out, angrily, “No way! I couldn't have lost to you! There is no way! You . . . You cheated somehow!”

 

Yugi tells Missy, “Hotaru Tomoe beat you fair and square, Missy!”

 

Joey tells Missy, “And you are just a sore loser since a `little girl', kicked your butt!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “And I think I know a proper `reward' for sore losers!” When Missy looks up to the voice, a bucket full of smile lands on her head and she yelps out in shock as it covers her hair and the sides of her face while spilling onto the floor around her. When everyone looks to the source, they find Syrus Truesdale on the roof of the Slifer Red dorm with a sly smile on his face where the bucket came from. Syrus tells Missy, with a sly grin, “I knew that you were such a slime ball, so, I thought that a bucket full of slime would be a perfect reward!”

 

Mindy states, amazed, “Whoa! Is it just me or did Syrus play a prank on someone?!”

 

Jasmine replies, stunned, “It isn't you! Who knew that little guy had that in him?”

 

Missy yells out, annoyed, “Why, you?! When I get up there . . .!!” However, Missy does get to finish when she slips on the slime on the ground and she yells out in shock as she lands on the ground on her butt.

 

Plenty of the students at the Slifer Red dorm laugh at Missy and Mina tells Missy, teasingly, “Hey, Missy, have a `nice trip'?”

 

Hotaru is giggling and laughing as well and she tells Missy, with a teasing tone, “Excuse me, Missy, I'm sorry if this sounds rude, but maybe you should make like a slug and sliver off? But I thought slugs like slime, you know?”

 

Lita asks, perplexed, “Is it me or did Hotaru just make an insult?”

 

Rei tells Lita, amazed, “It isn't you.” Rei thinks in her mind, “Hotaru seems different, but she isn't radically different and I don't sense any new negative vibes in her, but I sense a change in her. However, I don't know if it is a natural change.” Missy gets to her feet, gives a loud growl of anger, and turning away, she walks away in defeat. On the meanwhile, Syrus comes down from the roof and down to the ground. He immediately goes to her girlfriend and kisses her straight on the lips.

 

Syrus tells Hotaru, excitedly, “You did incredible out there, Hotaru-chan!”

 

Hotaru tells Syrus, with a smile, “Thanks, Syrus-chan! But it is not a big deal! You believed in yourself and you beat her! I knew if I believed in myself and my deck, I knew that I could too!”

 

The rest of our heroes and heroines assembled in front of the couple and Serena tells Hotaru, amazed, “Hotaru-chan, you were amazing out there!”

 

Hotaru tells Serena, with a kind smile, “Thank you, Serena-hime!”

 

Jasmine asks Syrus, “By the way, Syi, what was that prank about?”

 

Syrus tells Jasmine, with a smile on his lips, “Personally, I thought that girl was too high and mighty, so, I decided to take her down a peg.”

 

Jaden tells Syrus, amazed, “Personally, Syi, I didn't know that you were such a prankster.”

 

Syrus looks at Hotaru lovingly and he says, “Well, I guess that love really makes you change in ways that you don't expect. Lately, I feel a lot more confident about myself.”

 

Hotaru nods her head and replies, with a kind smile and tone, “Me too! Whenever I think of Syrus-chan, I feel like I can do anything.”

 

Mindy says, with a wide smile, “Guess that means that you are meant for each other? True love always comes through and lovers can do anything with their loved ones by your side.”

 

Syrus tells Mindy, “Yeah, I guess you are right, Mindy.” Hotaru and Syrus share another kiss, not caring if everyone is watching them.

 

Michelle goes over to Amara and whispers, seriously, “What do you think, Amara?”

 

Amara whispers in reply, “I'm not sure. I don't sense any negative aura controlling either of them, but the changes in them are unnatural.”

 

Michelle asks Amara, in a whisper, “Unnatural?”

 

Amara nods her head and replies, in a whisper, “Yes. Like someone used some other form of mind-control or hypnosis on them. However, what confuses me is that if it was for an evil purpose, why would they make them more confident in themselves and get rid of their shyness? It is like whoever did this is trying to make them into stronger people and plus, much of Firefly's and Syrus' personalities are the same.”

 

Michelle nods her head and she whispers, “Good point, Amara. It is like . . . whoever did this to help was trying to help them become stronger people.”

 

Amara tells Michelle, with a whisper and a serious tone, “Well, we had better keep an eye on the two of them. Whoever did this might feel they have good intentions, but they might prove more harmful then good.”

 

Michelle nods her head and whispers, “Right.”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “Hey, guys!” Everyone looks to see Tea, wearing a sexy Dark Witch costume, and Atem, wearing a Dark Magician costume, walking towards them.

 

Ami tells Tea, “Hello, Tea-sempai! Where have you and Atem been?”

 

Tea tells Ami, with a kind smile, “We've been getting into the spirit of Duel Monsters Spirit Day and trying to find costumes for us. What do you think?”

 

Mina tells Tea, with an excited smile, “You and Atem are looking good, Tea-sempai!”

 

Yugi gives a slight blush from Tea's appearance in her costume and he says, with a nod, “Yeah, Tea!”

 

Mina asks Tea, with a sly grin, “So, Tea-sempai, trying to impress someone?”

 

Rei tells Mina, scolding tone, “Mina!”

 

Tea tells Rei, with a kind smile, “It's all right, Rei.” Tea tells Mina, with a sly smile while glancing at Atem, “And Mina . . . you can say that.” Soon after, the group gathers together to have fun and excitement, but Yeshua is watching from the roof of the Slifer Red dorm and looks at what is happening with Tea, Atem, Syrus, and Hotaru.

 

Yeshua thinks in his mind, in a plain and logical tone, “This seems very familiar. It looks like Atem remembers more than the Memory World showed him and the rest of his friend and it looks like he has regained the knowledge of the `other' peoples that he welds as well as the love of his life from his former life even through he doesn't know. Irony is, he got her the same way. However, I sense something similar with the Soldier of Saturn and her beloved. Someone intervened to make sure that they are together. But who?” When Yeshua spots Zane in the distance looking down at the situation with a dark sick smile on his lips, Yeshua thinks, in a plain and logical tone, “I see. Most likely, Zane has regained his memories of his past life as the Princess of the Galaxy Kingdom's lover and he did this to ensure that the Soldier of Saturn and her beloved stay together as true love should be, through I don't exactly agree on his method. Unless he does something to harm the `Chosen Duelists' and their abilities, I can't intervene. However, something tells me that all Zane wants right now is to reclaim his lost love who he regained feelings for before he regained his `lost memories'.”

 

(Later that day; within Academy Harbor)

 

During the middle afternoon hours, we find Underworld deck user, Zane Truesdale, the `Hell Kaiser' of Duel Academy and the Pro Dueling Circuit, standing beside the lighthouse watching the ocean while glancing at the celebration, but while he had a dark serious look on his face, he has dark sly grin within his own mind.

 

Zane thinks, darkly, “Let the others and those `kids' have their own fun and games with Duel Monsters Spirit Day. I've got more important things to do like planning for future battles with those dorks as well as that damn witch Beryl. I remember my time as `Shadow Warrior' or `Shadow Knight' of the Silver Millennium, I remember what that fucking bitch did to it. And now that I do, she'll pay for what she did! Her and her pathetic generals will taste my dark powers first hand and they will suffer before I crush them! However, since I remember, the first thing I will do is reclaim the girl that stole my heart and knowing her, she will have seen and be coming for me soon.”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “Zane!”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “Right on time!” Zane turns to the source of the voice and he sees Hikari in her Vampire Lady costume coming towards him.

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a curious tone, “Hi, Zane. Why weren't you at the festival?”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Those aren't my thing and neither are tournaments like this one. One of the things in life that matter to me is victory.”

 

Hikari replies, solemnly, “Oh . . .” Hikari then realizes something and she says, “Wait! You said one of the things in life.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “That's right, Hikari. I realized that there is more to life in victory, but to me, victory is the most important thing.”

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, with a smile, “Well, it is a start. He is seeing more to life than just victory. Maybe there is a way to bring more of the `old Zane' back.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “By the way, interesting costume, Hikari. The Vampire Lady. A sexual beauty, but with dark and dangerous begin a creature of the night. It looks good on you and suits you.”

 

Hikari gives a slight hue on her cheeks and replies, “T-Thank you, Zane.”

 

Zane asks Hikari, in a dark curious tone, “By the way, Hikari, why are you here?” Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “As if I didn't already know.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a slight blush on her cheeks, “Well, Zane, I was worried about you when you didn't show up. I thought that those dweebs tried something. I know that you are good, but you are our ally and I . . . we can't be helped to be concerned about you.”

 

Zane asks Hikari, “So, you were concerned about me?”

 

Hikari's blush becomes a lot brighter and she tells Zane, a bit nervously, “S-Sure, I was.”

 

Zane gives a dark giggle and replies, with a dark sick smile, “Of course.” Hikari is perplexed by Zane's dark sick smile and becomes more curious as she comes towards him until she stops in front of him.

 

Hikari asks Zane, “Zane, can I ask you question?”

 

Zane replies, with a dark plain tone, “Yes, what is it?”

 

Hikari asks, curiously, “What are those other important things in life?”

 

Zane gives a dark mental smirk and he thinks, “Bingo!” Zane then turns to Hikari and looks at her, eye to eye, causing her to blush a bit more if that's possible.

 

Hikari asks, nervously, “Uh . . . Zane?”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark smile, “I will tell what other things mean more to me in life now, but for only under one condition.”

 

Hikari asks, curiously, “What is that?”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “I need for you to pay attention so you need to look exactly at my eyes when I tell you.”

 

Hikari shrugs her shoulders and replies, “Okay.” Hikari thinks in her mind, “It must be really important to Zane because when someone says that, they want for you to pay attention and listen by focusing on them. It does sound a bit weird, but I don't want to hurt Zane's feelings.” Hikari then focuses her attention of her eyes to Zane's eyes and within a few seconds, Hikari notices that Zane's eyes are glowing as gold as the gold color on the Winged Dragon of Ra. Hikari thinks in her mind, “Huh? What the? Zane's eyes are . . .!!” However, Hikari doesn't get to finish as her world starts to turn gold as Zane's eyes, but unlike Tea, Syrus, and Hotaru, Hikari had a much stronger mind and started to resist the pleasant and pleasurable feeling trying to take over her mind. Her body shutters and she gives slight moans as her head start to shake a bit.

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “I'm not surprised that Hikari is able to resist unlike Tea, Syrus, and Hotaru. Kari is a kind and caring character, but she has an experienced life full of combat with not only physical training, but mental training as well. She is also a strong will, much stronger than Tea, Syrus, and Hotaru. It is practically impossible to take control of her . . . unless you know or ARE her weakness.” Zane then tells Hikari, with a dark sly smile, “Kari, listen to my voice. Don't resist the feeling coming over you.”

 

Hikari says, straining, “Zane . . . what's happening to me . . .?”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Easy, Kari. Listen to my voice. Listen to my voice. You trust me don't you?”

 

Hikari replies, straining, “I do . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Just focus on that trust. Focus on your feelings for me and you will find the answers. Trust me. Believe in me.”

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, mentally straining, “What should I do . . . this feeling . . . it feels so good . . . so soothing . . . but it is unnatural . . . however . . . Zane would never . . . he would never do me wrong . . . he is different . . . his new style of dueling worries me . . . but there are part of the `old Zane' inside . . . he has helped us a lot . . . I should . . . I should trust him . . .” However, this weakens Hikari's mental defenses, which are nearly impenetrable, but by focusing on her immense feelings for Zane and trust for him, Zane penetrates Hikari's defenses and Hikari feels her will slip away as she feels an immense warm feeling surge through her body making her feel pleasant and content.

 

When a warm smile comes on Hikari's face, Zane asks Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “How do you feel, Kari?”

 

Hikari replies, her tone being labored, “Mmm . . . I feel warm . . . so warm . . . and a bit horny . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sly smile, “Good. Now, I don't want her to be my slave. I just want her more accepting of my current philosophy and a bit more `dominating' in our upcoming relationship. Other than that, Kari will remain as she is. However, first, I need to know her true feelings for me.” Zane asks Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Kari, do you really love me?”

 

Hikari nods her head and replies, in a labored tone, “Yes . . . Yes, I do . . . You are so handsome . . . you are so strong . . . smart . . . calm . . . calculating and rarely let anything get to you . . . you are just one of most incredible duelists that I've seen . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sick smile, “Loves me for my brains and my brawl as well as my `battle style'. I see that nothing has changed over the millennia. I must ensure that she will remain mine! But first . . .” Zane asks Hikari, “Kari, why don't you like me as I am?”

 

Hikari replies, in her labored tone, “You . . . you are so ruthless . . . don't show your opponents the honor and respect as you did before . . . and you treat your cards like trash . . .”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark plain tone, “Just as I thought. She is still stuck up on the `old me' when I used that stupid respect dueling philosophy of mine when I was a naïve idiot. Well, the `old me' might have a good use in this case.” Zane tells Hikari, “Kari, you do love me with your heart and soul. No other man can compare to me and you are attached to me and me only.”

 

Hikari replies, in her labored tone, “I love Zane with my heart and soul . . . No other man compares to him . . . Love him and him only . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “You also trust me with all your heart. You will not find my decisions strange unless it interferes with your morals.”

 

Hikari replies, in her labored tone, “Trust Zane . . . not find decisions strange . . . unless it is against my morals . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “You love me so much that you want to declare your love for me here and now.”

 

Hikari replies, in her labored tone, “Want to declare love for Zane . . . here and now . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “However, even through you are concerned about my ruthless dueling style, you actually like my new `Hell Kaiser' persona. I'm so dominating, so powerful, and even stronger and more calculating than before. You like that about me now. You love `bad boys' like me. You can help to feel totally attracted to me in this fashion with a strong and dominating personality over other duelists, even through you are concerned about me treating my cards like trash. You are totally sexually attracted to me. You can't help to think about your lips touching mine. Your body quivers at the thought of my skin touching yours.”

 

Soon after, those `erotic images' between her and Zane enter her mind, she licks her lips, and thinks, in a labored tone, “Wow! Why couldn't I see that Zane's `Hell Kaiser' self is so much amazing and attractive than his `old self'. Sure, his way of dueling and treating his cards like trash is wrong. But Zane being such a `bad boy' . . . as the `Hell Kaiser' . . . so handsome . . . so strong . . . so dominating . . . just want to touch his skin . . . feel his powerful lips to mine . . .” Hikari felt a bit more horny and she licks her lips to them.

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “However, you only want to show these feeling to me in private and with me and me alone. You hate your mother being called a slut and you don't want those rotten people like bullies and stuff to have another excuse to insult your family. But if they do, you wish to show them who is boss.”

 

Hikari's expression becomes one of annoyance and she says, in a labored tone, “Zane's right . . . best to show these feelings with only him . . . asshole always insult my mom . . . and family . . . don't want to give them a damn excuse . . . they try it through . . . they will get what they deserve . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “In our relationship, I am so strong and dominating that you know that you can't help to be submissive to me and knowing that I'm dominate over you. You will follow what I tell you, but if what I tell you interferes with your morals, you need to try to convince why it is wrong and not follow them at all. If you wish to do something or want something, you need to and can always ask me, but what I decide is final and you will follow what I decide to the letter. However, the others won't understand, especially your brother, so, in public, you will only be submissive in ways that the others don't notice. But with only me and in private, you will show your submissive side completely. You can't help to think of some `naughty stuff' when with me in private, but you will not show this in public.”

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, in her labored tone, “Zane is so strong and powerful that I can't help to submit to him. I can't help to follow what he tells me to in our relationship, but I can't let it interfere with my morals . . . need to try to convince Zane . . . my love . . . why it is wrong . . . and not follow them. I can always ask him, but whatever Zane decides is final and I follow what he wants to do to the letter. The others want understand my love for Zane so I can only show my love for Zane in ways that they don't become suspicious of me and Zane. However, when my love, Zane, and I are alone, Zane is in total control. Ooh, Zane and me together in a bedroom or something when not in others, I can't help to think about doing something `naughty' with him.” Hikari's expression becomes a sly smile and she licks her lips again.

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “Other than what I've told you, you are to remain the way that you are because you know that I love you that way.”

 

Hikari replies, with a labored tone, “Other than what Zane told me to be . . . I am to remain the way that everyone knows me . . . because Zane loves me that way.”

 

Zane then tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “When I snap fingers three times, you will wake up from this trance. Understand?” Hikari nods her head and Zane's eyes return to normal as he snaps his fingers three times causing Hikari to blink several times as well as her to shake her head, holding it as well. When she puts her hands down and she looks at Zane, a loving and lustful look came over her eyes. Zane asks Hikari, with a dark curious tone, “Is there something that you want to tell me Kari?”

 

Hikari replies, with a loving tone, “Actually, I do, Zane.” Hikari then pushes Zane onto the lighthouse wall and kisses him on the lips passionately. Zane wraps his arms around her body as her costume would allow and returned the kiss with the same passion. They dueled with their tongues and Hikari allowed Zane's tongue to enter her mouth, her cheeks flush as Zane's tongue tasted every bit of her mouth and saliva. When they release from the kiss, Hikari tells Zane, with a loving tone, “What I want to tell you is that I'm madly in love with you, Zane. I'm really not sure about the way that you duel now, but for some reason, your `Hell Kaiser' look seem to make you even more desirable.”

 

Zane replies, with a dark loving smile, “Does it now? Well, I have something to tell you, Kari.” Zane whispers into Kari's right ear and he says, with a dark loving tone, “I love you, Hikari Urameshi. You are the most amazing girl not to mention beautiful girl that I ever met and I want you to be mine.”

 

Hikari's cheeks flush and she replies, lovingly, “I'm all yours, Zane.” Soon after, the two of them share a passionate kiss, mating and dueling with their tongues, and tasting each other's mouths and saliva.

 

When they release from the kiss, Zane tells Hikari, with a dark loving tone, “However, from now on, I want for you to wear the same type of clothes as your uniform `created' by the Darkness of Salvation. You are perfect in black.”

 

Hikari replies, in a loving and seductive tone, “Anything you say, Zane-chan.” Soon enough, the two of them engage in a third passionate kiss with Hikari putting her hands on Zane's chest and in a seductive manner massages it.

 

(In the evening hours of the day; Within the Ra Yellow dorms *WARNING: X-RATED LEMOM COMING UP!*)

 

Inside of the Ra Yellow dorms, we find Hikari Urameshi, still wearing her costume after enjoying the rest of the Duel Monsters' Spirit Day celebration, as she enters her room in the Ra Yellow dorm. After her `meeting' with Zane and becoming Zane's girlfriend, Zane told Hikari he will meet with her later and he wanted her to return and enjoy the festival, in which she did. Our heroes and heroines enjoyed the festival, through Yusuke really didn't like wearing the Vampire Lord that Keiko and she forced into and teasing him about it. Jaden and Alexis dueled each other to a tie in a costume duel, Lita and Tyranno dueled against Ami and Bastion in a tag duel, but Lita and Tyranno lost even through they worked well together. Ami and Bastion calculated their moves perfectly. Atticus and plenty of other boys couldn't get their eyes off of Mina in her Injection Fairy Lily costume and Atticus and the other boys dueled each other to see who would get the right to ask her on a date. The legendary blizzard prince, in control of Nightshroud's power and deck, easily took his and the other boys' little tournament even through he didn't use Nightshroud's power and only his deck to win. Alexis sighed at his brother's antics while Rei sighs at her friend's, Mina's, antics. Soon after, the winner of the costume couples contest proved to be a tie with Jaden as Elemental Hero Sparkman and Alexis as Ice Master along with Darien as Dark Magician Knight and Serena as Guardian Angel Joan. Our heroes and heroines enjoyed themselves a lot with food, games, and other `activities' and the SOL didn't try anything during this time.

 

Now, Hikari Urameshi enters her room in the Ra Yellow dorms until the Obelisk Blue dorms can be retaken from the SOL, she closes the door, and locks it behind her. But then she senses someone behind her, her expression turns to deadly serious, and she quickly turns pointing her right index finger, glowing with blue spiritual power, right at the intruder in her room. Hikari gasps in surprises to see Zane, minus the duel disk and black jacket, in front of her with a dark sick smile on his face.

 

Hikari asks Zane, surprised, “Zane?!”

 

Zane replies, with a dark sarcastic tone, “Who did you expect, Queen Beryl?”

 

Hikari `powers down' her Spirit Gun and she tells Zane, concerned, “Zane-chan, why did you do that? I could have blasted you! You know girls like me don't like when someone sneaks into her room like that. I would have never forgive myself I did that to you.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile, “But you didn't. I know that you are better than that. You are a hard-core fighter, but you don't fire first and ask questions later expect in the case of those Society Dorks.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a dark serious tone, “After what they did to Keiko, they don't deserve any chance to explain because it will be lies. They don't deserve any mercy and we have to beat them to the ground to stop them as well as that fucking parasite that took Sartorius' body. The Light of Destruction is nothing, but a devil that needs to be destroyed before our world and the universe is destroyed.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Good. You know what you need to do to stop that alien freak. You know that in order to defeat him that you can't hold anything back and you must beat him to the ground with everything that you got. Personally, that asshole's mindless gibberish also gets on my nerves is one reason! Duelists forge head with their own power and ability and they make their own `destiny'! Anyone that thinks that your `fate' is set in stone is a damn fool! You make your own `fate' and you use your own power to do so! However, even through I've changed, this is my world and damned to hell that I let some mind-controlling, pathetic, and weak parasite that needs to take over someone else and control others for power! Without Sartorius and his damn Society, he is nothing!”

 

Hikari nods her head and says, with a dark serious tone, “Yes! And we need to make sure that SOB can't hurt anyone else and kick his fat ass back to whatever black hole he came from!”

 

Zane nods his head and he says, with dark sick smile and dark seductive tone, “That's right, but for now, we are going to forgot that SOB and his damn cult.”

 

Hikari asks, curiously, “We are?” Zane goes over to Hikari, his strong and dark gaze over Hikari's glaze, Hikari gives a flush in her cheeks, and Zane kisses Hikari right on the cheeks.

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sly grin and dark loving tone, “Yes, we are. We are going to enjoy life to the fullest or have you forgotten the promise that we made in the light of Prince Judai's kingdom so long ago.”

 

Hikari gasps and she says, stunned as new memories come into her mind, “Ryo . . .”

 

Zane nods his head and replies, “Yes, but I fell for you far before I remember, Hikari. Now, you don't want to break our promise so long ago.”

 

Hikari replies, with a red hue on her cheeks and in a loving tone, “Never . . .”

 

Zane moves his head to Hikari's left ear and he tells Hikari, with a dark sly smile and dark plain tone, “Now, remove your clothes. We are going to take a shower. You don't want to wake up all dirty, do you?” Zane then blows air into Hikari's ear causing her to blush and sigh with a bit of pleasure as she starts to get aroused.

 

Hikari shakes her head and replies, her tone sounding a bit lustful, “No.”

 

Zane kisses Hikari on the lips and he tells her, “That's my girl. Now, you know what to do.” Hikari immediately starts to remove her Vampire Lady costume and takes off her clothes until she is left in her bra and panties. Zane takes off his shirt, shoes, socks, and pants, leaving him only in his boxers, and Hikari can't help to blush at the sight of Zane's perfectly muscular chest. Hikari sees some scars on the left and right sides of his body, but it doesn't detract from the manly handsomeness that Hikari sees before her. Zane takes note of Hikari's slender and sexy frame, the lines and curves in all of the right places, her well-shaped and curved voluptuous breasts under her bra, and her beautiful body. She has a pretty good athletic frame to her as well, but it doesn't detract at all from her feminine beauty. Zane tells Hikari, with a dark enticing tone, “Follow me, my princess.” Zane motions for Hikari to follow him and Hikari follows without argument. They enter bathroom in Hikari's dorm room, which is regular shower and bathtub with other `things' found in a bathroom, and the two of them enter the shower. Zane then wraps his strong arms around Hikari's sexy waistline and brings her closer to him. Hikari continues to have that flush in her cheeks and she is a bit nervous.

 

Hikari tells Zane, nervously, “Zane, I don't know . . .”

 

Zane whispers to Hikari's ear, in a low dark tone, “Did you take any birth control pills?”

 

Hikari tells Zane, nodding her head, “Well, yes, I do. My mother always makes me take them and they are special birth-control pills that are supposed to handle periods too. And I took one this morning . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark lustful tone, “Then there is no problem, Kari. Just trust me. You do trust me?”

 

Hikari replies, breathlessly, “Yes . . . I do trust you, Zane . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark loving and lustful tone, “Then trust me to know that you love me and you want this. Now, take off your panties.”

 

Hikari yells out, stunned, “What?!”

 

Zane tells Hikari, whispering into her ear lustfully, “Take off your panties. Show me your beautiful body.” Zane then blows into Hikari's ear causing her to get quite aroused causing to get flushed very quickly and unable to control herself, Hikari removes her panties, Zane takes them, and throws them to the side. Zane bends down, spreads Hikari's legs out a bit, and sees Hikari's pussy which is a bit wet. Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sly smile, “Perfect. Like in the Silver Millennium, you are perfect in every way. Time for your reward.” Zane then get lashes out with his tongue at Hikari's pussy causing her to moan in pleasure.

 

Hikari moans out, erotically, “Oh, Zane . . . Ah . . . That . . . Ah . . . That . . . That feels so good . . .!!” Hikari thinks in her mind, in erotic pleasure, “Zane's kisses . . . they . . . they feel so good . . . this should be wrong . . . but with Zane . . . it feels so right . . .” Zane continues to lick and suck Hikari's pussy, making her wetter and wetter, and he uses the fingers of his right hand to play around with her clit. Soon after, Zane uses his fingers to open Hikari's pussy lips and suck her inner pussy with all of his might. Hikari's eyes widen, she gives a great gasp, and with one loud cry of erotic pleasure, she experiences her first orgasm ever and she releases her sexual fluids into Zane's mouth and onto her legs. Zane licks up her sexual fluids as much as possible and when Hikari is done with her orgasm, Zane licks his lips and goes to his feet.

 

Zane looks at Hikari, who looks at him with a flush look on her cheeks, and he says, with a dark sly grin, “You haven't changed too much in the millennia, Hikari. You taste as sweet as ever and much like dark chocolate.” Hikari couldn't help to blush from Zane's words, Zane puts his hands on Hikari's sides, and kisses her on the lips in which Hikari replies by returning the kiss. Another passionate kiss follows the two of them, dueling with their tongues, and Hikari allows Zane's tongue to gain dominance, which enters Hikari's mouth allowing Zane to taste every bit of Hikari's mouth again. Hikari is unable to contain her excitement and getting more aroused, she starts to feel wet again in her already wet vagina, and then Zane puts his hands behind Hikari's back, unsnaps her bra, and throws it away, leaving our sister to our former Spirit Detective totally nude.

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, already pleasure-stricken by the kiss, “Oh . . . I'm naked in front of the boy that I love . . . I . . . I shouldn't be doing this . . . however . . . I can't feel guilty . . . aroused . . . and I don't feel this is wrong because it is with Zane and Zane only . . . the only man in my life . . . the only man that is for me . . . so, it isn't wrong.” Zane puts his hands on Hikari's voluptuous breasts and gently fondles them. It causes them to break the kiss and Hikari gives out moans of pleasure as Zane massages and fondles her breasts. Zane then moves his head down her breasts and starts to suck and lick her breast nipple while fondling her other breast. Hikari loudly moans out, in pure pleasure, “Zane . . . that feels . . . Ah . . . that feels so good . . . Ah . . .!!” Hikari puts her hands on Zane's muscular chest and starts to massage them. Within a few minutes, Zane stops licks and sucking her breast nipple and locks his lips with hers in another passionate kiss. When they release from the kiss, Hikari looks over Zane's body and then notices the bulge coming out of his black boxers.

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Take them off. Find what you want to see.” Hikari doesn't even question Zane and she just removes his boxers, blushing to see the nine and one-half inch penis right in front of him. Zane thinks in his mind, darkly, “It is a good thing to make sure that I use a few more spells that I remembered from my `training' in the `erotic magic' of the Pharaohs including some formulas and potions to incredible endurance among other things. I'll need it if I'm going to have our first time since Hikari is half-demon.” Hikari is amazed at what she is seeing. She had heard about these things from the stuff like this for the information she gathered about sex, but the information was usually `bad' stuff and not something to Hikari's liking. Hikari could see the smoothness of Zane's manhood along with the veins bulging out a bit. Zane then gently puts Hikari gently against the flat shower wall and aims his manhood at Hikari's entrance.

 

Hikari says, nervously, “Zane . . . I . . . I don't know . . .”

 

Zane tells Hikari, in a dark lustful tone, “Trust me, Kari. You will love it. I promise.” Zane then gently inserts himself into Hikari and Hikari moans as he feels Zane's hard manhood stretch her vagina walls. When Zane hits Hikari's hymen, he doesn't hesitate, he kisses Hikari on the lips, and he gives one large thrust that breaks Hikari's hymen. Hikari winches in pain from her hymen breaking and when he releases from the kiss, Zane tells Hikari, in a dark loving and lustful tone, “Does it hurt?”

 

Hikari replies, “A little.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, in a dark lustful and loving tone, “Don't worry, Kari. It won't hurt much longer.” Zane then starts to gently thrust his hard manhood in and out of her vagina in order for her to get used for his manhood being in her vagina. However, since Hikari is a half-demon, the pain doesn't last for too long and Hikari begins to moan in pleasure and excitement.

 

Hikari moans out, erotically, “Zane . . . Ah . . . That's feeling good . . . Harder . . . Harder . . . More . . . Give me more . . .!!” Zane puts his hands on her hips, lifts her into air, and starts to thrust hard and faster with his hard manhood. Hikari instinctively wraps her legs around his waist and her arms around his shoulders while Zane rams his hard member in and out in a fast and hard pace that felt good for our hanyou female Urameshi. Hikari moans out, erotically, “Yes . . . Yes . . . Oh, Zane . . . that feels good . . . Oh my . . . Zane . . . you are so big . . . I can feel you deep inside of me . . . feels . . . feels so good . . . More . . . Please more . . .!!”

 

Zane groans out, in erotic excitement, “. . . Ugh . . . Now . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . Who am I . . . Ah . . . to refuse that request . . . from a beautiful vixen . . . like you . . . Kari . . .?!!” Soon enough, the two of them engage in a passionate kiss and Zane keeps her close that Hikari's breasts and breast nipples are rubbing against his chest. Zane groans out, erotically, “Ah . . . your breasts are so . . . so soft and smooth . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . feels good rubbing against . . . Ah . . . my chest . . . Ah . . . every since we met . . . I felt desire for you . . . Kari . . .”

 

Hikari moans out, in erotic pleasure, “I've always dreamed about you . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . ever since I saw you for the first time . . . Ah . . . You are so amazing . . . I'm so amazed . . . that you are my love . . . Ah . . . my `dark knight' . . . but I've always wanted you . . . this is dream come true . . .!!” As they continued to make hot love in the shower, sweat begins to form on their bodies as the sounds of their lovemaking fill the bathroom. After some time, Zane allows Hikari to put her feet back on the ground only to turn Hikari's back facing him, and her hands on the shower wall. Zane puts his hands on Kari's buttocks and Zane continues to pound his hot manhood into Hikari's wet vagina going like a dog in the heat. Hikari loudly moans out as she can feel Zane's go deep inside of her very wet vagina.

 

Zane groans out, in pure excitement, “Ah . . . Mmm . . . You are so wet . . . and so tight . . . Ah . . . Kari . . . you really know how to make a guy feel good . . .!!”

 

Hikari flushes and replies, erotically, “Don't . . . Please don't say that . . . Ah . . . Zane . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . It sound . . . like I'm a slut . . .!!”

 

As Zane continues to pump inside of her, he puts his hands on her breasts, fondles them greatly, and tells her, erotically, “You . . . Ah . . . A slut . . . never . . . Ah . . . you are the most beautiful . . . and powerful person there is . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . anyone who calls you that . . . will pay the price . . . I promise you that . . .!!” Zane continues to thrust his hot manhood in and out of Hikari's vagina as he continues to fondler her breasts. He goes so deep one time that Hikari screams out in pure erotic pleasure and Zane also kisses her neck during this time in their hot lovemaking. After sometime has pasted, Zane turns Hikari over, she stands straight on the shower wall, her arms wrapped around Zane's neck, and Zane uses his hips and upper legs to continue to thrust his cock into Hikari's wet pussy while putting his hands on her hips.

 

Hikari moans out, in pure pleasure, “Zane . . . Ah . . . it is getting . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . It is getting so hot . . . here . . . Ah . . . Oh . . . It feels so good . . . More . . . More . . . More . . . I've always desired and wanted you, Zane . . . I've fallen for you the very first day that I saw you . . .!!”

 

Zane groans out, erotically, “Same here, Kari . . . Ah . . . I've learned that victory . . . isn't the only important thing in life . . . Ah . . . having the perfect woman . . . Ah . . . is also important . . . I've felt for you . . . Ah . . . the first day that we met . . .!!” The two of them share passionate kiss for several minutes. Soon after, Zane and Hikari continue to make hot love for a time and Hikari wishes that this moment would never end, but like all things, Zane and Hikari started to move closer and closer to their climaxes as their bodies move around frantically.

 

Hikari loudly moans out, erotically, “Zane . . . Ah . . . Ah . . . I'm so close . . . I can't take this much longer . . . I'm going to come . . .!!” Within several minutes, unable to take anymore, Hikari cries out in ecstasy while Zane gives a loud groan as well as the two of them orgasm at the same time and Zane releases a large loud of his warm seed into Hikari's waiting womb. Hikari thinks in her mind, “Zane's cum . . . it's so warm . . . so, this is what it feels like . . . to have sex with the one that you love . . .” Thanks to her half-demon enhanced endurance and Zane uses of his `erotic magic', neither of them collapse as they breath heavily for a minute or two. Soon after, Zane removes his soften member from Hikari's vagina which drip a bit of their cum down her legs.

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sick smile and dark loving tone, “It seems like we are a bit dirty. It is time for you and me to take a bath. And then you and I have the `pleasure' of each other's company in bed.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, moving her hands on his chest and in a loving tone, “I look forward to that.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark seductive and loving tone, “I know that Kari. However, you must remember to keep our relationship a secret for now. That brother of yours wouldn't understand.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a seductive tone, “Don't worry, Zane-chan. I know how to keep a secret. Besides, remember, I'm the older twin. I can kick my bro's ass anytime. I love him, but that doesn't me he can wail on my boyfriend just because he took my virginity.”

 

Zane darkly giggles and replies, “Of course. That must be why I loved in two lifetimes, Kari. Your strong nature.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a smile, “I really cared about you as you were before, but now, your `bad boy' persona seems so much appealing to me for some reason. I love you, Zane Truesdale, my dark knight.”

 

Zane replies, with a dark loving tone, “And I, you, my demonic Galaxy Princess.” The two of them share another passionate kiss as Zane uses some physic powers to close the certain and start the shower for their bath together.

 

(The following day; within the `White Dorm' *END OF X-RATED LEMON!*)

 

Inside of the `White Dorm', we find ourselves within Sartorius' private quarters as he sits down trying to use his cards in a Tarot cards trying to predict the future, but so far, with the majority of his cards being pitch black blank, he has little success at best. Right now, he finds himself looking an upright The Hierophant Tarot card, the card that represents Aster Phoenix, the only Chosen Duelist not infused with the powers of the Darkness of Salvation, and the Light of Destruction possessed Sartorius looks at the card with great interest.

 

Sartorius thinks in his mind, “The right side up Prince, huh? So, destiny tells me that Aster Phoenix might be my only chance against the others. Out of the `Chosen Duelists' only Aster hasn't embraced the Darkness of Salvation's powers. He might prove the Light's greatest chance to get the other `Chosen Duelists' to see the light and help me make the whole world see the light.” Just then Sartorius' PDA activates, he takes into his hands, activates it, and states, plainly, “Yes?”

 

A male SOL member, with blond hair and blue eyes, comes onto the screen and he says, in a cold serious tone, “Master Sartorius, I have some bad news to report.”

 

Sartorius replies, plainly, “Let me guess: The nonbelievers have used their Shadow Games to take down more of our members.”

 

The male SOL members on the screen of Sartorius' PDA replies, with a cold plain tone, “Yes, sir. They are rapidly taking out members one after another especially the `Chosen Duelists' that you require. Namely Yusuke Urameshi, Serena Tsukino, Hikari Urameshi, Kagome Higurashi, and Jaden Yuki.”

 

Sartorius says, with a plain tone, “I am not surprised. They proved to be very fierce characters especially with the darkness controlling them.”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold serious tone, “However, sir, we have found the final `Chosen Duelist', Aster Phoenix. He is focusing his attention on finding his father's card.”

 

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, “Interesting. Still looking for revenge his father, I see. We might be able to use this to our advantage.”

 

The male SOL member tells Sartorius, with a cold serious tone, “However, Master, I have some bad news. The nonbeliever and traitor, Rei Hino, is in the nearby area. She could prove troublesome.”

 

Sartorius tells the male SOL member, “Miss Hino's appearance doesn't change the will of destiny for Aster. Continue as planned and we might regain a former member in the meantime.”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold plain tone, “Yes, Master Sartorius.”

 

When the screen turns off, Sartorius says, with an evil smile, “Aster, it is finally time that you accepted your destiny as part of the Light.”

 

(Later that following morning; Somewhere on Academy Island)

 

During that same morning, we find two female SOL members, badly burnt and smoking, falling to the ground on their stomachs as well as into unconsciousness while our `darkened' Sailor Senshi of Fire, Rei Hino, stands over them as her duel disk de-activates and returns to standby mode.

 

Rei says, with a dark serious tone, “Maybe you, dorks, should learn why not to mess with fire.” Rei then gets her sailor communicator out, activates it, and Serena's face comes onto the screen. Rei tells Serena, over the communicator, “Hey, Meatball Head, two more Society Dorks is out for the count.”

 

Serena replies, over the communicator, “Nice work, Pyro. Darien-chan and I already took out four more here. The Society of Dweebs is down to one-third of its original members by now.”

 

Rei tells Serena, with a dark serious tone, “Don't count those assholes out, yet, Serena. They have a damn rotten tendency for sneak attacks when you let your guard down.”

 

Serena replies, with a dark plain tone, “Don't I know it. I'll be careful. You, too, Rei. Yusuke, Keiko, Kagome, and Inuyasha are nearby. I'll give them a heads up and see if any of them can get those former Society Dorks back to Yukina. Stay in the area.”

 

Rei replies, in a dark plain tone, “No duh, Meatball Brain. Don't you think that I know that?!”

 

Serena says, with a dark sly tone, “Then why did I have to tell you?”

 

Rei yells out, in a dark annoyed tone, “Ha! Ha! Very funny, Serena! Just wait until we duel for real!”

 

Serena replies, with a dark sly tone, “Can't wait! We can finally have some fun dueling for once! Later!”

 

Rei replies, with a dark sly tone, “Yeah, later!” Rei de-activates her communicator, takes a deep breath, and thinks in her mind, “Personally, I'll be glad when all of this mess is over! Hopefully, all of us can get on with our lives and this whole mess will become nothing than a bad memory.” Just then a large explosion comes from nearby and a young man's yell is heard. Rei says, seriously, “Sounds like someone is in trouble!” Rei looks over the fallen former SOL members and she says, with a dark plain tone, “With the shadows of the Darkness of Salvation in their mind, they're safe for the moment.” Rei immediately heads off towards the source of the explosion, which came from nearby. After going through some woods and bushes, Rei finds herself in another clearing in the woods where she finds Aster Phoenix walking over to a fallen Pro Duelist, knocked senseless and on his stomach.

 

When he gets to him, Aster says, slyly, “You don't mind if I take a look at your deck, right?” Aster takes the duelist's deck, looks at it, gets an angered look, and exclaims, “Damn it! It is not here!” Aster then tosses the cards all over the ground in front of the duelist.

 

This gets Rei angered and she yells out, angrily, “What in the hell do you think you are doing, Phoenix?!”

 

Aster turns to the source of Rei's voice, finds her with an angered expression on her face, and Aster says, seriously and a bit surprised, “Hey, aren't you one of Serena's friends? Rei Hino, daughter of Chairman Hino?”

 

Rei says, with an angered snort, “Don't put me in same sentence with THAT man! But yeah, I'm Serena's friend!”

 

Aster asks Rei, curiously, “What are you doing around here?”

 

Rei replies, in her usual manner, “What do you think? I'm in this tournament, remember?”

 

Aster states, with a nod and a sly smile, “Oh, right. Come here to duel me?”

 

Rei yells out, angrily, “No! I'm here to ask you what in the hell do you think you are doing with this guy and his cards!”

 

Aster replies, with his usual sly smile, “Simple. We dueled and if he lost, I get to look at his deck. He lost and I got my reward.”

Rei calls out, with an angered tone, “Fine! But it doesn't give you the right to treat his cards like trash like that! That's someone's deck and you should treat it with respect!”

 

Aster tells Rei, with a serious tone, “Well, sorry, Miss Hino, but I have more important things to do than worrying about someone else's cards.”

 

Rei yells out, with angered tone, “What kind of duelist are you to disrespect someone's deck like that? And you call yourself a Pro Duelist?!”

 

Aster says, with a plain tone, “Coming from someone that turned on her best friend for power.” Aster just made one heck a big mistake by saying that and in the next instant, he got clobbered right in the face by Rei's right fist, knocking him to the ground, and Rei yanks him by the color to have him looking into the enraged expression of our miko Sailor Soldier.

 

Rei calls out, with a deadly serious tone, “I dare you to say that, Phoenix! I dare you! But I swear that will be your last words!”

 

Aster, who has gained a nasty black and blue on his right cheek thanks to that punch, yells out, worriedly, “Okay! Okay! I'm sorry!”

 

Rei throws Aster to the ground and she yells out, angrily, “You say something like that about me or the others who had to suffer under that freak's control and you will be sorry, Aster Phoenix!”

 

Aster says, with a shrug and a plain tone, “Whatever.”

 

Rei asks Aster, in a serious tone, “Okay, wiseguy, you are going to tell me why you are dueling Pro Duelists just to take a look at their decks.”

 

Aster replies, with a serious tone, “Why do you think? I'm getting back something that belonged to me and my father.”

 

Rei says, seriously, “You don't mean that you are looking for your father's card!”

 

Aster says, with a serious tone, “No duh! And I've dueled so many Pro Duelists and I haven't come up close!”

 

Rei tells Aster, with a serious tone, “You know that card that your father created was infected with the same thing that Sartorius is possessed with: Namely the Light of Destruction.”

 

Aster says, with a serious tone, “I don't care! That card is my father's legacy and I'm going to get it back along with him!”

 

Rei tells Aster, with an annoyed tone, “Don't you think that the guy that stole your father's card is possessed by the Light of Destruction too?! If you face him, you will have a dangerous duel on your hands!”

 

Aster tells Rei, with a very serious tone, “I don't care who or what this evil force is! Most likely, it is the thing that has my father and I swore that I wouldn't stop until I got him back! And I know that whoever has that card has my father!”

 

Rei shakes her head and she thinks, annoyed, “Damn it! That's why I don't like going out with men!” Rei looks at Aster, gets a look of concern, and she thinks, “Still I really can't blame him. Unlike my fucking father, his father was a really good person and Aster really looked up to him. He loved him with all of his heart. He still hopes that his father is alive, but with an evil freak like the Light of Destruction, his father is . . . through most likely, Aster won't accept that after ten years of hoping and searching.”

 

Just then a male voice calls out, coldly, “Well, if it isn't Aster Phoenix?” Rei and Aster look at the source of the voice to see a male SOL member with brown spiky hair and hazel brown eyes and a female SOL member that's a girl with hazel brown eyes and deep blue hair like Ami's that goes down half-way behind her back.

 

Rei yells out, in a dark annoyed tone, “What do you dweebs want now?! Another smack-down?!”

 

The female SOL member yells out, coldly, “Why don't you clam it nonbeliever?! We aren't here to talk to you! We're here to talk to Phoenix!”

 

Aster says, with a plain tone, “You freak don't interest me at all! So, why don't you bug off?!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold sly tone, “I thought that you would be interested to learn the identity of who took your father!”

 

Aster yells out, with a perplexed tone, “What did you say?!”

 

The female SOL member says, with an evil sly smile, “Hello, Phoenix! You heard us! Master Sartorius knows the identity of the man that took your father away years ago and he told every single one of us!”

 

Rei calls out, with a dark angered tone, “You're a liar!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold angered tone, “Shut up, traitor! How dare you question Master Sartorius' words?!”

 

The female SOL member says, with a cold nasty tone, “Master Sartorius knows the greatest secrets of the universe!”

 

Rei states, with a dark sly smile, “If he knows everything, then why didn't he know he'll get clobbered by Yusuke, Jaden, Hikari, Kagome, and Serena?!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold angered tone, “You are starting to get on my nerves, Hino!”

 

Rei states, with a dark taunting tone, “It is because that my friends and I are making your pathetic cult even weaker than before! Last time I checked, there were less dorks on the island!”

 

The female SOL member tells Aster, with a cold serious tone, “Fine, Phoenix! Stay with the nonbeliever! Our Master met the person that had that card you were looking for and unlike his sister, Sarina, he learned the man's identity, but he never told anyone until now! If you want to continue searching for that card in vein, that's fine!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold plain tone, “But if you want to find your father, you had better catch us if you can, Phoenix!” Soon after, the two SOL members then run off into the woods and Aster immediately takes off after them.

 

Rei yells out, in a dark serious tone, “What in the hell do you think you are doing?! You know that they are lying, Aster! Don't be an idiot!”

 

Aster calls out, with a serious tone, “I can't take that chance!”

 

Rei thinks in a dark annoyed tone, “Oh, idiot! Has he forgotten that he is one of the six `Chosen Duelists' necessary to save or destroy the universe?! He is so caught up in his father that he can't think straight! I had better follow that jerk before he ends up in white!” Immediately, Rei takes off after Aster and with her Sailor Senshi super-speed and agility, she easily manages to catch up to him.

 

Aster tells Rei, with a serious tone, “This isn't your business so back off!”

 

Rei tells Aster, with an annoyed tone, “This is my business since I'm a Sailor Scout, genius! You are one of the six Chosen Duelist needed to defeat that freak and I can't let you fall into his parasite hands!”

 

Aster says, with a plain tone, “Whatever. Just don't get in my way!”

 

Rei yells out, annoyed, “Hey, you don't tell me what to do!”

 

Aster tells Rei, with a sly grin, “So, Serena tells you what to do, huh? She is your leader and you have to follow her orders, huh?”

 

Rei yells out, in an angered tone, “Hey! I can do what I want! Meatball Head may be our leader, but I can handle myself!”

 

Aster says, with a sly smile, “Sure.”

 

Rei calls out, with an angered tone, “And what's that supposed to mean?!” Before Aster can retort, they find themselves in another clearing and they see the two SOL members some distance from them with cold sly grins on their expressions.

 

Aster yells out, with a serious tone, “Okay, freaks, it is time to pay up! Tell what you know!”

 

The female SOL member says, with a cold sly grin, “You want it?! You will have to duel us for that information!”

 

Aster says, with a determined tone, “Fine by me!” Aster and Rei step forward, but then the ground collapses in front of them and they yell out in shock and surprise as they fall down a deep hole into the ground of the island.

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold serious tone, “Mission accomplished.” Soon after, a metal covering covers the large hole that Rei and Aster fell into while the two SOL members put a large grass `sheet' over it to cover the metal covering.

 

The female SOL member says, with an evil sly smile, “Time for you and the traitor to learn why you shouldn't try to defy destiny.” Soon after, the male SOL member take out a PDA and Sartorius' face comes onto the screen.

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold sly smile, “Master, Aster Phoenix has fallen into the trap and that traitor, Rei Hino, is with her.”

 

Sartorius replies over the PDA, “Excellent. Are the duelists from our dorm that we trained waiting for them?”

 

The male SOL member states, with a cold serious tone, “Yes, Master.”

 

Sartorius nods his head and replies, over the PDA, “Good work. Return to our dorm.”

 

The male SOL and female SOL member say in unison, “Yes, Master Sartorius.” The male SOL de-activates his PDA and the two of them head back to the `White Dorm'.

 

(Sometime later; back where Rei's last duel was)

 

Sometime soon after, we find Serena, the rest of the Sailor Scouts, Rini, the Sailor Quartet in their civilian forms, Darien, Kagome, Inuyasha, their friends from the Feudal Era, Yusuke, Keiko, Hikari, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Jaden, Alexis, Bastion, Tyranno, Jasmine, Mindy, Atticus, Syrus, Zane, Chazz, Danielle, Shala, Alinna, and Yeshua assembled together looking down at the two unconscious former SOL members that Rei beat sometime ago.

 

Serena asks Ami, “Ami, is this it?”

 

Ami replies, with a nod, “Yes. Based on the scan, this is location of Rei's last communication.”

 

Kuwabara asks, curiously, “Where do you think that she got to?”

 

Lita shrugs her shoulders and she says, “Knowing Rei, who knows?”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “Rei isn't one to take Sailor Scout work lightly, we should know. If she is ordered to remain in one place, she will remain in one place unless something came up.”

 

Michelle says, with a nod, “Serena is right. Something must have come up.”

 

Inuyasha sniffs the air around him and he says, pointing into the woods, “Most likely, I sensed that she went that way into the woods.”

 

Bastion asks, curiously, “Are you sure, Inuyasha?”

 

Inuyasha says, seriously, “No duh! I know that miko's scent anywhere!”

 

Kagome says, with a nod, “With Inuyasha, I never doubt him when he is THIS sure.”

 

Jasmine says, seriously, “Well, let's check it out!”

 

Kirara transforms into her full demon cat form and Sango says, seriously, “I'll take these two back to Yukina to get them healed.”

 

Kagome says, with a smile, “Thanks, Sango.”

 

Miroku says, with a smile, “The rest of you go ahead and find your friend, Rei Hino.” Soon after, the group goes on ahead and finds the still stunned Pro Duelist with his cards scattered over the ground.

 

Syrus states, amazed, “Whoa! What happened to him?”

 

Hotaru replies, perplexed, “Wish I knew, Syrus-chan.”

 

Ami and Bastion inspect him and Bastion tells the others, “He is okay. Just stunned. He must have gone through an intense duel.”

 

Amara states, curiously, “Why are his cards scattered all over the ground?”

 

Mindy asks, curiously, “Did the final attack of this duel do this?”

 

Kurama says, examining them, “No. They weren't throw away by an attack. Even if the hologram safety was gone, no attack would be intense enough to do this. And they are throw in the set pattern as if they were taken out of the duel disk and thrown away.”

 

Lita asks, seriously, “You mean someone took the cards out and threw them away like that?”

 

Tyranno says, with a sneer, “Who would do such a rotten no good dirty thing?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “I might have an idea! Rei's scent is here, but that Aster Phoenix guy is here too. I think he was the one that did this!”

 

Kagome asks, perplexed, “Why would Aster look at this guy's deck and throw his cards around like this?”

 

Syrus snaps his fingers and exclaims, “I know! He must be looking for his father's card!”

 

Bastion tells Syrus, “That's a logical theory, Syi.”

 

Alexis asks, curiously, “Doesn't he know that the Light of Destruction's evil could still be in that card as well as the guy that took it?”

Darien says, seriously, “I don't think it matters to him, Alexis. He has a desire to find his father and get him back along with his card.”

 

Amara says, seriously, “Along with making the guy that took his father from him pay.”

 

Atticus yells out, seriously, “Dude! Doesn't Aster know that revenge won't get him anywhere?!”

 

Trista says, with a logical tone, “With the love that he had for his father and the quickness and cruelty of how he was taken away from him, it is doubtful that he will be convinced to stop following the path of revenge any time soon.”

 

Tyranno says, with a nod, “No kidding, ma'am! Private Phoenix is on a mission and no one or no thing is going to stop him!”

 

Inuyasha points deeper into the woods and he says, with a serious tone, “Well, he most likely got himself and Rei into major trouble! They went that way! And bad news, I smell two more of white freaks ahead of them!”

 

Lita yells out, surprised, “What?!”

 

Jaden says, with a dark serious tone, “The Light of Destruction must be targeting Aster because he isn't protected by the Darkness of Salvation!”

 

Yusuke shouts out, with a dark annoyed tone, “Oh, great! Just what we need!”

 

Hikari says, with a dark serious tone, “Well, what are we waiting for?!”

 

Amara says, with a dark plain tone, “Nothing.” Not needing another word, our heroes and heroines race into the woods in order to find their missing friend and/or ally as well as our final Chosen Duelist, Aster Phoenix!

 

(Somewhere under the surface of Academy Island; A short time soon after)

 

Within an underground cave, we find Rei Hino lying down on her ground on the ground with her legs partially spread out and she gives a moan as she slowly moves into a sitting position.

 

Rei groans out, with a dark plain tone, “Damn it! I should have known those dweebs would try that!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Hi, there!” Rei looks to the source of the voice to see Aster looking at her with a sly smile on his face. Aster tells Rei, with a sly tone, “Are you going to get up or are you going to stay like to tempt a guy like me?” Rei looks down at the `vulnerable position' based on where Aster is sitting, she yelps, and quickly gets to a sitting position putting her skirt down as much as possible.

 

Rei calls out, angrily, “You fucking perv! If you took one look, I will . . .”

 

Aster tells Rei, with his hands held up in the air, “Whoa! Whoa! I didn't take a single peek! Honest! I'm just saying!”

 

Rei says, with a snort, “Whatever. Just like a man.”

 

Aster asks, with a curious tone, “You got a thing against guys? A man-hater?”

 

Rei says, annoyed, “No! It is just ninety-nine percent of males are just plain pigs!”

 

Aster asks, with a sly smile, “And what would Serena's boyfriend and brother be under?”

 

Rei yells out, with angrily, “Don't compare my princess' brother and her prince to someone like you!”

 

Aster states, with a sly smile, but a bit of an annoyed tone, “So, they are better than me, huh?”

 

Rei says, with a nasty remark, “Jaden and Darien is ten times the person than you, Phoenix! Because they live their lives as good people unlike you!”

 

Aster states, starting to get annoyed, “Oh, really?!”

 

Rei retorts, with a nasty tone, “Yeah! Because Jaden doesn't go off dueling someone just because they piss them off the way they use their cards and for the reason that they duel! Or did you forget that second duel where you allowed yourself to be used as a pawn that stripped Jaden of his ability to see his cards?!”

 

Aster replies, with a sarcastic tone, “Coming from a former Society tool!” Aster then ducks as Rei yells as he takes a swing at him, which barely misses.

 

Rei yells at Aster, angrily, “What did I say about mention that asshole?!”

 

Aster tells Rei, seriously, “All right, that's enough! This fighting isn't going to get us anywhere! It is obvious that we were led into a trap and the only way we are going to get out of here to find a way and fighting our way out!”

 

Rei says, with a snort, “Fine! You have a good point . . . for once.”

 

Aster says, with a sigh, “Now, I see why Serena calls you `Pyro' and I don't think it is the reason that Fire is your element as Sailor Mars.”

 

Rei states, annoyed, “What's that supposed to mean?”

 

Aster starts to walk off and he says, seriously, “Do you want to get out of here or argue all day?”

 

Rei huffs and replies, annoyed, “Fine! Just don't expect me to be done with you when we get out of here.”

 

Aster replies, plainly, “Whatever.” The two of them start to head off in one direction to find a way out of the tunnels, not knowing that they were being watched by cameras.

 

(Elsewhere; in the cave containing the Millennium Stone)

 

Within the cave containing the Millennium Stone, we find Yami Bakura, the Sailor Animamates, and Bonz sitting down in the cave and watching the same event happen on a crystal ball of some sort.

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil sly grin, “So, the Light of Destruction has sent the weakest of the Chosen Duelists and the Sailor Scout of Fire into one of his traps, huh? Interesting development. Most likely, the rest of those fools shall come looking for their friend.”

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko asks, with an evil sly grin, “So, shall we attack?”

 

Yami Bakura replies, with an evil smile, “Yes, we shall. However, we shall merely be a distraction. Bonz shall take out one of those little runts.”

 

Bonz asks Yami Bakura, with an evil cruel smile, “Which one should I take out boss?”

 

Yami Bakura tells Bonz, with an evil smile, “The Soldier of Destruction and Rebirth: Saturn. That shall do send them into anger, rage, and despair when she is in the shadows.” Yami Bakura summons a Diadiankh to his left wrist, a glow comes from it, and Diabound appears behind Yami Bakura with a frightening roar.

 

(A short time soon after; in an area of Academy Island)

 

In Academy Island, we find our heroes and heroines looking for any signs of Rei and/or Aster, but they don't see anyone anywhere.

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, “Are you sure about this Inuyasha?”

 

Inuyasha replies, in his usual manner, “Who do you think you are talking to Kagome? My nose smelled the two of them following those white dorks here, but their trails vanish while those two Society Dorks walk off to the side. If you want my opinion, they must have fallen into a trap.”

 

Mina yells out, surprised, “No way! Rei would never fall into a trap so easily!”

 

Trista tells Mina, plainly, “As much as I want to agree with you, Mina, we can't dispute that possibility. The Society of Light is sly ones and we can't always predict their moves like they can't predict ours anymore.”

 

Hikari says, with a dark plain tone, “I hate to admit, but I wouldn't put it over those freaks.”

 

Yusuke nods his head and states, with a dark serious tone, “Same here, sis. Those dweebs are always up to no good.”

 

Tyranno asks Jaden, with a dark plain tone, “What do you think we should do Sarge?”

 

Kuwabara says, with a dark serious tone, “Maybe we should pay a visit to the `Dork Club' and get it right out of their mouths . . . with a little `persuasion' of course.”

 

Ami is scanning with her computer and Serena asks Ami, “Anything Ami?”

 

Ami shakes her head and replies, “Not yet, Serena.”

 

However, Inuyasha sniffs something in the air and yells out, seriously, “Hey! Watch out! There is a really nasty odor in the air and it is coming from one really nasty power.”

 

Amara says, with a serious tone, “Inuyasha is right! There is someone here besides us!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, evilly, “Good work, but not good enough! Diabound, Helical Shockwave!” Just then a loud `bang' like a gun going off is heard and everyone looks to the source to see a large blue spiral wave of energy is coming towards them.

 

Inuyasha tackles Kagome to the ground and yells out, seriously, “Get down!” Immediately, everyone ducks to the ground while the wave just passes over them and lands some distance away causing a powerful explosion. When the group gets back to their feet, they turn to see Yami Bakura with Diabound hovering just above and behind him.

 

Lita yells out, annoyed, “Oh, great! It is the Zorc guy, again!”

 

Michelle says, with a serious tone, “That's demon, Lita-chan.”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil grin, “You remember me? I can't help to be touched.”

 

Kagome says, with an annoyed tone, “Yeah, right, pal! What do you want this time?!”

 

Yami Bakura yells out, seriously, “What do you think my dear Princess of the Stars?! The power of the seven Millennium Items and the ability to revive my true form!”

 

Alexis calls out, with a serious tone, “Don't count on it, pal! We'll stop you!”

 

Yami Bakura snaps his fingers and says, with an evil smile on his lips, “We'll see about that my dear.” Soon after, the four Sailor Animamates, Iron Mouse, Aluminum Siren, Lead Crow, and Tin Nyanko, come out to join Yami Bakura.

 

Amara says, annoyed, “Oh, great. All of you, frauds, again!”

 

Sailor Iron Mouse says, with an evil smile on her lips, “I'm so glad that you are excited to see us.”

 

Amara says, with a nasty tone, “Yeah, excited. Excited like getting an ulcer.”

 

Yami Bakura calls out, with an evil sly smile, “Shall we begin?”

 

Lita says, with a sly grin, “If you insist!” Soon after, our heroes and heroines get their transformation items and prepare to transform.

 

“Twilight Valkyrie Moon Power, Make-up!”

 

“Twilight Valkyrie Universe Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Mercury Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Venus Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Jupiter Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Uranus Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Saturn Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Pluto Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Neo Moon Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Amazoness Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Earth Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Sun Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Aries Power, Make-up!”

“Eternal Twilight Galaxy Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Star Power, Make-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Solar Moon Power, Power-up!”

 

“Eternal Twilight Solar Sun Power, Power-up!”

 

After their transformation sequences are done, Twilight Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Twilight Valkyrie Sailor Universe, Eternal Twilight Sailor Mercury, Eternal Twilight Sailor Venus, Eternal Twilight Sailor Jupiter, Eternal Twilight Sailor Saturn, Eternal Twilight Sailor Uranus, Eternal Twilight Sailor Neptune, Eternal Sailor Pluto, Eternal Twilight Sailor Mini-Moon, Eternal Sailor Vesta, Eternal Sailor Juno, Eternal Sailor Pallas, Eternal Sailor Ceres, Eternal Sailor Earth, Eternal Twilight Sailor Sun, Eternal Twilight Sailor Aries, Eternal Twilight Sailor Libra, Eternal Twilight Sailor Aquarius, Eternal Twilight Sailor Leo, Eternal Twilight Sailor Galaxy, Eternal Twilight Sailor Star, Eternal Twilight Solar Moon, and Eternal Twilight Solar Sun face the Sailor Animamates, Yami Bakura, and Diabound. At the same time, Darien transforms into Tuxedo Mask.

 

Twilight Sailor Venus says, with a smile, “Looking good, Keiko!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe tells Sailor Venus, “Thanks, Mina!”

 

Kuwabara summons his Spirit Sword and yells out, “Give it up, pal! We've got you outnumbered!”

 

Yami Bakura shouts out, evilly, “Let's even the odds shall we?! Diabound, Thunder Force Strike!” The snake head of Diabound's `tail' opens up and a powerful electrical force charges up.

 

Solar Sun yells at Kuwabara, annoyed, “Did you have to say that Kuwabara?!” Diabound fires the Thunder Force attack right at all of them.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe thinks in her mind, “We can't dodge since the others are in the line of attack!”

 

Syrus yells out, “Get out of the way!” On non-powered members of our group while our heroes and heroines of the group that have powers prepare to block the attack, but then Zane gives off a dark violet and with he whips his right hand forward, the attack is sent flying right into the air.

 

Sailor Uranus yells out, stunned, “No way! How did Zane do that?!”

 

Yami Bakura says, stunned, “Impossible! No mere human can do that . . . unless . . . unless you are from the Silver Millennium as well!”

 

Atticus yells out, stunned, “What?! Zane is some kind of reincarnated prince?!”

 

Zane says, with a dark sick smile, “Something like that . . .” Zane's clothes then transforms into a pitch black version of Prince Endymon's uniform with dark violet version of Prince Endymon's armor and he has four dark grey angel wings coming out of his back. He has a dark brown metallic belt across his waist with a sheath for a powerful sword with a golden hilt and a dark silver blade.

 

Syrus says, stunned, “Big brother . . .”

 

Yami Bakura calls out, horrified, “It can't be! The Legendary Shadow Knight of the Silver Millennium?!”

 

Tuxedo Mask asks, curiously, “Shadow Knight? And why does he seem so familiar to me?”

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a serious tone, “The `Shadow Knight' and `Shadow Warrior' are two nicknames for this powerful warrior from the Silver Millennium. His power and strength is legendary. He was most ruthless and unyielding warrior ever born and to challenge him would be a fool's errand. Even we, Sailor Soldier of the Silver and Golden Alliances, couldn't compare to this warrior's strength. He never sided with the negative forces, but he does things of his own way, even through they weren't always right. One more thing, he was . . . is Sailor Galaxy's `lover'.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe yells out, stunned, “Zane is Kari's `soulmate' from the Silver Millennium?!”

 

Twilight Sailor Galaxy asks, with a bit of an annoyed tone, “Is there a problem with that?!”

 

Twilight Sailor Star asks, curiously, “When did he get his memories and his powers back?”

 

Twilight Sailor Galaxy asks, with a smile, “Recently. And yep, Zane and I are boyfriend and girlfriend.”

 

Twilight Solar Sun asks his sister, seriously, “Are you sure that you aren't more than that?!”

 

Twilight Sailor Galaxy gives a slight blush and yells out, with a sly smile, “I'll answer that when you and Keiko tell me your wedding is.”

 

Twilight Solar Sun calls out, with an annoyed tone, “We've got better things to do!”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sly grin, “Excellent work, Kari!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon asks Valkyrie Sailor Universe, “Can you and Yusuke give me a hand with the Sailor Animamates?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe asks Valkyrie Sailor Moon, curiously, “Are you sure Serena?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon tells Valkyrie Sailor Universe, with a smile, “I don't want you to get hurt, but if I don't allow you to help, I'm not going to be fighting at my full power.”

 

Twilight Solar Sun says, with a sly grin, “Kuwabara may not hit girls, no matter how bad they are, but I'm what you call an equal opportunity fighter!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe says, teasingly, “Don't we know it?!”

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko calls out, with an annoyed tone, “You know I've had enough for your mouths! The time for talk is over!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a serious tone, “For once, we agree!”

 

Twilight Sailor Galaxy asks Zane, in his `Shadow Knight' form, “Care to join us, Zane?”

 

Zane takes out his sword, swings it around like an expert, and he replies, with a dark sly grin, “My pleasure. I need something to practice on.”

 

Yami Bakura yells out, a bit annoyed, “We shall see about that! Attack!”

 

Sailor Lead Crow says, with an evil sly grin, “With pleasure!” Soon after, the four Sailor Animamates charge right at our heroes and heroines.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, seriously, “Keiko, Yusuke, and I will handle the Animamates, the rest of you take care of `snake boy'!”

 

Twilight Sailor Galaxy calls out, curiously, “Are you going to be okay, bro?!”

 

Twilight Solar Sun yells out, “There is no time to talk!” Immediately, Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Valkyrie Sailor Universe, and Eternal Twilight Solar Sun were heavily engaged against the Sailor Animamates while the rest of our heroes and heroines go against Diabound, who is protecting Yami Bakura. Sailor Aluminum Siren fires water-energy attacks at Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Sailor Iron Mouse attacks Valkyrie Sailor Moon at the same time, Sailor Lead Crow uses her whip against Valkyrie Sailor Universe, and Sailor Tin Nyanko attacks Solar Sun with a lance, but Solar Sun easily manages to dodge with his skills acquired from his time as a Spirit Detective and in Demon World.

 

Sailor Tin Nyanko yells out, annoyed, “Come on! Fight back!”

 

Solar Sun says, with a sly grin, “If you insist.” Sailor Tin Nyanko thrusts her lance at Solar Sun and he dodges it. He then grabs the lance by its staff and yanks it forward causing Sailor Tin Nyanko to fall forward. Solar Sun then slams a powerful spirit charged fist into her waist and she gives out a great gasp as she is hit with a bone crushing punch. On the meanwhile, Yami Bakura is facing immense force, but he isn't scared at all.

 

Yami Bakura yells out, seriously, “Diabound! Make these fools pay with Illusionary Shockwave!” Yami Bakura fires multiple magical energy attacks from its hands and the snake head that makes up its tail at our heroes and heroines.

 

Kurama calls out, seriously, “Everyone, scatter! Now!” Immediately, our heroes and heroines take off in different directions to avoid the attacks. Kurama gets his roses out, transforms it into a whip, and yells out, “Rose Whiplash!” Kurama uses his Rose Whip to launch multiple quick strikes towards Diabound.

 

Yami Bakura says, with a sly grin, “I don't think so, my young fox demon! Helical Shockwave!” Diabound then fires its classic attack that blasts through Kurama and heads for the fox demon.

 

Twilight Sailor Star calls out, “I don't think so!” She uses one of her magical arrows, infused with her miko spiritual powers at the attack.

 

Inuyasha takes out Tessaiga and calls out, “I'm with you, there, Kagome! Time to take this freak out! Backlash Wave!” Inuyasha uses his Tessaiga to mix the energy of Diabound's Helical Shockwave with the demon energy of his sword, twisting it, and sending it right back at Diabound. Sailor Star's arrow is mixed in and the combined assault lands a massive blow to Diabound's left shoulder.

 

Yami Bakura yelps out in pain and he says, with an enraged tone, “You will pay for that one, half-breed! Mark my words!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sly smile, “In your dreams, freak!”

 

Yami Bakura yells out, enraged, “Diabound! Crush these fools right now! Illusionary Shockwave!” Diabound launches a lot more multiple magical energy spheres at our heroes and heroines and with the battle between Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Valkyrie Sailor Universe, and Eternal Twilight Solar Sun, the battle is intense. However, in the sidelines, Bonz is watching with an evil sly grin as he waits for his chance to trap Sailor Saturn.

 

Bonz thinks in his mind, evilly, “It won't be long now! Little Miss Saturn, you final duel is soon to begin!”

 

(Returning back to Aster and Rei; Sometime later)

 

As we come back to Rei and Aster, we find them entering areas of the `cave' that are man-made with metal roofs and electrical systems and soon enough, they enter a large man-made room, which is seemly abandoned.

 

Aster says, with a serious tone, “I don't like this! This place is abandoned and a perfect for that light show and his cult to set a trap.”

 

Rei says, seriously, “No duh, Sherlock.”

 

Aster asks, with an annoyed tone, “What is your problem, Hino?”

 

Rei retorts, sarcastically, “I don't have to answer your question, Phoenix!”

 

Aster the grabs Rei and he yells out, annoyed, “Personally, part of me could care less what you think about me! However, another part of me is damn well wondering what is with you and your attitude! Now, what is your problem?!”

 

Rei yells out, angrily, “You know damn well what my problem is! You mention that fucking time that I hurt the best friend that I ever known!”

 

Aster's eyes widen and he asks Rei, seriously, “Serena means that much to you, doesn't she?”

Rei says, with a serious tone, “No kidding.”

 

Aster asks Rei, curiously, “Why?”

 

Rei replies, plainly, “Because . . . she and Ami were my first true friends. She was the first person not to think that I'm weird or anything like those girls in that damn Catholic School.”

 

Aster says, seriously, “She is like a sister to you?”

 

Rei replies, seriously, “Yeah.”

 

Aster states, with a plain tone, “I heard rumors that you and your father aren't on `good terms', but I know that's a major understatement. However, there is more to than that just abandoning you, isn't it?”

 

Rei states, seriously and suspiciously, “Yeah?”

 

Aster replies, with a serious and plain tone, “Your father beat you, didn't he?”

 

Rei gasps in shock and she yells out, suspiciously, “How did you know that?!”

 

Aster tells Rei, with a serious tone, “It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Abandonment would make any kid angered at their father, but it wouldn't be enough for the kid not to be even associated with them. However, abandoned and constantly hit until abandoned, now, there is something that would make a kid all out hate a parent and not even associate themselves with the parent at all.”

 

Rei says, annoyed, “Whatever.”

 

Aster tells Rei, “Look, Rei. What I said earlier . . . sorry.”

 

Rei gives him a look of surprise and she says, plainly, “Thanks.” Soon after, the two of them existing the abandoned rooms and such and they are stunned to find themselves at some kind of underground ecosystem. Rei yells out, stunned, “What the heck?! When did Duel Academy have an underground ecosystem?!”

Aster replies, amazed, “You got me, Rei. We have to be careful. Knowing these freaks, it is most likely a trap and we don't know what's down here.”

 

Rei says, plainly, “No kidding.” Rei points a black elevator shaft and she says, “That's the only way I'll bet.”

 

Aster tells Rei, plainly, “And most likely, you would win that bet. Let's go. And we have to stick together or else we will fall into their trap.” The two of them head into the forest and several minutes later, we find them sneaking around in the forest on the lookout for any trouble. A noise comes from the bushes and Aster says, seriously, “What's that?!”

 

They turn to the source of the voice, a lizard comes out, and Rei says, plainly, “A lizard. Through I don't why a lizard in this place.” Just then more noises come from the bushes and Rei calls out, “Who's there?!” Rei and Aster look around to find whatever it is, but then Aster looks to see a pair of animal eyes coming from behind Rei.

 

Aster yells out, “Watch it!” Just then a tiger comes out of the bushes and prepares to pouch on Rei, but Aster pushes her out of the way and gets scratching on the back as a result causing him to cry out in pain as he gets three nasty claw marks on his back.

 

Rei calls out, horrified, “Aster!” Rei immediately gets out her Eternal Twilight henshin wand and prepares to transform.

 

“Eternal Twilight Mars Power, Make-up!”

 

Immediately, Rei is engulfed in red and black as well as fiery red flames and she transforms into Eternal Twilight Sailor Mars.

 

Sailor Mars shouts out, seriously, “Back off, kitty cat!” Twilight Sailor Mars blasts some flames in front of the tiger and the tiger runs into the bushes as Sailor Mars gets to Aster's side. Sailor Mars asks Aster, concerned tone, “Aster, are you okay?”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, sarcastically while winching in pain, “I've gotten scratched by some large tiger. Yeah, I'm just dandy.”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a smirk, “I see that you have a sense of humor.” Sailor Mars looks at Aster's back and she says, worriedly, “Shit! That cat got you bad. I'm getting you out of her.” Sailor Mars puts Aster on her right shoulder, his left hand around her back, and her right hand around his waist. She immediately takes to the air.

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a plain tone, “You could have done this in the first place, you know.”

 

Sailor Mars replies, with a sly smirk, “I know, but you got me pissed off.”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a curious tone, “You could have taken off without then. Why not?”

 

Sailor Mars tells Aster, with a serious tone, “I didn't want to give myself a guilty consciousness.”

 

Aster replies, with a sly smile, “Oh, really?”

 

Sailor Mars tells Aster, with a sly smile, “Don't get ahead of yourself, pal, or I will drop you right here.”

 

Aster shrugs his shoulders and replies, “Fine.”

 

Sailor Mars sighs and says, plainly, “Whatever.” Sailor Mars turns her head away and she tells Aster, “Aster?”

 

Aster asks, curiously, “Yes?”

 

Sailor Mars replies, “Why did you save me back there?”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a sly smile, “Despite what you think of me, I couldn't allow a beautiful girl like you to get hurt.”

 

Sailor Mars replies, with a sigh, “Typical guy. Playing the hero to impress the girl.”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a plain tone, “Don't get ahead of yourself. I did it because it was the right thing to do. Unlike what you think, I still believe in justice and fairness and it wouldn't be right for me to allow you to get hurt when I could do something about it.”

 

Sailor Mars was surprised by what Aster just said and Sailor Mars says, with a smile, “You know, Aster, you keep surprising me. At first, you looked like jerk and then you show it was just mainly an act because you are trying to protect others. Sometimes, all of us don't really understand you. Look, you should know that we can help you get your father's cards back.”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a serious tone, “Look, Rei, it is my problem, so, please don't get involved!”

 

Sailor Mars yells out, annoyed, “Why won't you let us help?!”

 

Aster says, with a very serious tone, “Because . . . this is a task that I have to do on my own. For my father and his honor. Whoever took my father's card and my dad from me has to pay, but it has to be my hand and mine alone. I know that card is somewhere out there and most likely, who has it is a part of this tournament. Most likely, the pro duelists, but I will follow every lead. Even it is from that parasite possessing my friend, but mark my words, when I get that card back, he is going to be next. Sartorius and I were friends since childhood and I'm not going to let some freak from outer space use his body to commit evil deeds. He tricked me to try to get Jaden into his damn cult and used me to help brainwash people. If I didn't allow him to cripple Jaden like that, most likely, the `White Dorm' would have never been created in the first place.”

 

Sailor Mars asks, curiously, “So, you are feeling guilty about what happened?”

 

Aster replies, plainly, “Not quite. I respect Jaden now, but don't think we are friends or I'm friends with any of you. I will admit my mistakes, but that doesn't mean I regret what I did. I did what I had to do to find my father, but that doesn't mean I don't feel guilt for the things I do. And what happened is in the past and we've got to keep going into the future. But Jay taught me something and it is not everything is set in stone like that freak has been preaching out.”

 

Sailor Mars thinks in her mind, “This guy really surprises me! You think I figured him out by now, but he comes up and surprises me.” Sailor Mars tells Aster, with a sly smile, “I've got to admit, Phoenix, you keep surprising me. I've got to admit that you are all right, but don't let it go to your head.”

 

Aster replies, with a sly grin, “Yeah. I've heard plenty of about you, Hino, and let's just say that praise to another guy from you isn't a common thing.”

 

Sailor Mars replies, with a sly grin, “And you had better remember that, Aster.” Just then Sailor Mars and Aster approach the entrance to the elevator to find one male SOL member with black hair in the mop-top with light blue eyes and one female SOL member with dyed pink hair and violet eyes waiting for the two of them. The two of them had duel disks with dueling decks inside attached to their left wrists.

 

Aster says, drolly, “Great. The welcoming committee.”

 

Sailor Mars states, plainly, “Just perfect.” Sailor Mars lands in front of them and she states, with a dark serious tone, “You dorks had better get out of the way or else!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold nasty tone, “Or else what nonbeliever? If you can't see, there is the only way out of here that you can see!”

 

The female SOL member holds up a set of two keys and she says, with a cold sly grin, “And you can't get up there without these babies since we de-activated their elevator and this is an underground complex, so, don't think you can blast your way out with your powers without causing `problems'.”

 

Sailor Mars states, with a dark snarl, “And what makes you think that I won't just take those keys from you?”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold sly grin, “What makes you think that we won't destroy these keys just to keep them from you? And it is doubtful that you can communicate with the other nonbeliever friends or they would have been here by now. And it looks like poor Phoenix needs medical attention or he is in big trouble.”

 

Sailor Mars thinks in her mind, in a dark annoyed tone, “Damn it! That white dork has a good point! My communicator got damaged on the fall and now, I need to get Aster out of here fast! Those wounds are nasty and they needed to be treated fast!”

 

The female SOL member says, with a cold sly smile, “There is only one way to get out of here and you know it. Let's duel!”

 

Sailor Mars summons a duel disk to her left wrist, takes her dueling deck from her subspace pocket, puts it into her duel disk, which causes her deck to glow in a familiar dark violet and black color for a few seconds, and calls out, darkly, “Fine! I was feeling a bit pent up and you dorks are good for some practice.”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold sly grin, “Sorry, Hino, but you are going to have to face both of us!”

 

Aster says, seriously, “That's not fair! I'll . . .!!” Aster winches in real pain from the nasty gashes on his back from the tiger.

 

Sailor Mars tells Aster, with a dark serious tone, “You are too badly injured! Let me take care of these dorks and get you help as quickly as possible!”

 

Aster says, seriously, “You can't take them two-on-one!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly smile, “Want to bet?”

 

The female SOL member says, with a cold serious tone, “Big talk from you, hot-head!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark serious tone, “Hot-head, huh? Well, you, dorks, are going to learn why I'm the Sailor Senshi of Fire, so, let's get this duel over with! But first, I need to know the names of the two dorks that I'm going to kick around!”

 

The male SOL member says, with a cold snarl, “I'm Sean!”

 

The female SOL member says, with a cold serious tone, “And I'm Regina! Prepare to learn the power of Light, nonbeliever!”

 

Sailor Mars replies, darkly, “No! Getting ready why you don't get this priestess pissed off, dork!” All three of them activate their duel disks, the life-points counters display 4000 life-points each, and all three of them draw five cards from their decks.

 

“Game on!” All three duelists say in unison as the two on one duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Sailor Mars: 4000

Sean: 4000

Regina: 4000

 

Sailor Mars draws one card and calls out, darkly, “I'll go first, dweebs!” Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly grin as a dark violet aura surrounds her, “By the way, it is time for me to take this game to the `next level'!” Just then the whole area is engulfed in dark violet and black shadows.

 

Aster asks, perplexed, “Whoa! What is this?!”

 

Regina says, with a cold annoyed tone, “Not another one of these Shadow Games!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly grin, “Yeah, it is dweeb! Don't like it?! Tough! Until you dweebs are gone, this is how it is going to be!” Soon after, black clouds appear, surrounding the three duelists, and dark violet lightning comes from all of them. Sailor Mars puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “If you are wondering what this Shadow Game is about, you are going to have to wait! I'll place Graceful Charity! I draw three cards from my deck and discard two from my hand!” Sailor Mars draws three cards from her deck, discards two cards from her hand, puts one card on her duel disk, and calls out, “I'll summon my Decoy Dragon in defense mode!” Soon after, Decoy Dragon (300/200), a little dragon with green and orange scales and ruby red eyes, comes to the field in defense mode. Sailor Mars yells out, with a dark sly smile, “And I'll end my turn, there!”

 

Aster calls out, perplexed, “That's it?!”

 

Sean says, with a cold sly grin, “Phoenix is right, Hino! If that's all, you are going to see the Light, again, in no time!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly smile, “Want to bet, asshole! Just make your move!”

 

Sean draws one card from his deck and calls out, coldly, “Fine!” Sean puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “First, I play one copy of 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 the field in attack mode. Sean puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, “But he want be staying around for long! I sacrifice him to summon my Flame Cerebrus in attack mode!” Metal Fiend Token vanishes from the field and Flame Cerebrus (2100/1800) comes to the field in attack mode. Sean puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I play my Mischief of the Time Goddess! This skips your turn and returns to my Battle Phase! So, Cerebrus, crush her peon!” Flame Cerebrus fires a powerful breath of flames from its three heads at Decoy Dragon.

 

Sailor Mars calls out, darkly. “Thank you! You've just played my dragon's effect! When it is attacked, I can summon level seven or higher dragon monster from my grave to the field and switch your attack to him!”

 

Sean yells out, stunned, “But you don't have any dragons in your grave!”

Sailor Mars exclaims, with a dark sly grin, “Hey, dork, forget about the two cards that I sent thanks to my Graceful Charity! One of them was this card: My Darkblaze Dragon!” Soon after, Darkblaze Dragon (1200/1000), a black and fiery red demonic-like dragon, then comes to the field in attack mode. Sailor Mars says, with a sly smile, “Sure, it starts out weak, but since it was summoned from the grave, its attack and defense double!”

 

Sean calls out, stunned, “Oh no!” Darkblaze Dragon's stats rise from 1200/1000 to 2400/2000, Cerebrus' attack is redirected to Darkblaze Dragon, the dragon counterattacks, and destroys Flame Cerebrus causing Sean to cry out in pain as he gets shocked by dark violet lighting as he loses 300 life-points.

Regina yells out, horrified, “Sean!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a sly grin, “You realized that when we lose life-points, we get a nasty shock! But it is getting worse for you, dork! When my dragon destroys a monster in battle, you lose life-points equal to its attack points and that's over two thousand!”

 

Sean exclaims, stunned, “No way!” Darkblaze Dragon blasts Sean with intense flame and he yells out in pain as he is burned by the flames as well as shocked by more dark electric energy as he loses 2100 life-points.

 

Sailor Mars asks, in a dark taunting tone, “Give up, yet?”

 

Sean, badly smoking and burning, replies, with a groan while putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Never . . . *groan* . . . I'll end with one face-down.”

 

Current Score:

Sailor Mars: 4000

Sean: 1600

Regina: 4000

 

Regina draws one card from her deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, in a cold angered tone, “You will pay for that! I play my Double Spell card! This card allows me to use one spell in your grave as long as I give up a spell in my hand!” Regina discards a Polymerization spell card, a card comes out of Sailor Mars' graveyard, Regina puts the card into the spell/trap slots, and calls out, coldly, “And I choose Graceful Charity! I draw three cards and discard two!” Regina draws three cards from her deck, discard two from her hand, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and yells out, “Now, I play Monster Reborn! And I use it to revive my Felgrand Dragon that I sent to my graveyard!” Soon after, Felgrand Dragon (2800/2800), a large golden and yellow dragon that looks noble and strong, comes to the field in attack mode. Regina says, with a cold serious tone, “Thanks to this card, when summoned from the grave, I can select one other monster from my grave and my monster gains two hundred attack points times the level of that monster! And I choose my White Night's Dragon! Since it is a level eight, my Felgrand Dragon gains sixteen hundred more attack points!” Felgrand Dragon's stats rise from 2800/2800 to 4400/2800!

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly grin, “You think that scares me?! Please!”

 

Aster thinks in his mind, surprised, “Either Rei is crazy, brave, or most likely, she might have a trick up her sleeve!”

 

Regina yells out, coldly, “Let's see how confident you are after this! Dragon, take out her Darkblaze Dragon! Golden Flare Blast!” Felgrand Dragon fires a golden beam of energy at Darkblaze Dragon, destroying it, and costing Sailor Mars 2000 life-points, but even through she is greatly shocked by dark electric energy, she doesn't even flinch at all, which surprises Aster and unnerves the SOL members. Regina puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, coldly, “Fine! I end my turn!”

 

Current Score:

Sailor Mars: 2000

Sean: 1600

Regina: 4000

 

Sailor Mars draws one card from her deck and calls out, darkly, “So, sad! By the way, dweebs, the other card that I sent to my grave with Graceful Charity was my Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys and since it was sent there by a card effect, it is automatically comes back in my Standby Phase!” Just then a pillar of flames come out of Sailor Mars' graveyard and takes the form of Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys (2400/1600) in attack mode. Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly grin, “And more bad news for you, dweebs! Since it was special summoned this way, all spell and trap cards on the field are now gone!”

 

Sean and Regina yell out in unison, “Oh no!”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark sly grin, “That's right, assholes! Phoenix, get rid of their pathetic defense!” Phoenix gives out a loud cry as a huge whirlwind of flames destroys the two SOL members' face-down cards.

 

Aster thinks in his mind, seriously, “That's why she didn't put any face-downs before because Phoenix's ability would have destroys her spells and traps too!”

 

Sean tells Sailor Mars, with cold serious tone, “That won't help you win! We've got destiny on our side!”

 

Sailor Mars yells out, with a dark annoyed tone, “You know, if I hear that phrase one more time, I'm going to smash you heads in! But then again, allow me to help on that part!” Sailor Mars puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Now, I play my Lightning Vortex spell card! I discard one card from my hand and all of your monsters are goners!” Sailor Mars discards her Tyrant Dragon (2900/2450) monster card and Felgrand Dragon is destroyed.

 

Regina calls out, stunned, “My dragon!”

 

Sailor Mars calls out, darkly, “Is gone! And your life-points are about to join it!” Sailor Mars puts one card on the spell/trap slots and calls out, darkly, “Now, I play Monster Reborn and bring back my Tyrant Dragon!” Soon after, Tyrant Dragon (2900/2450) monster cards comes to the field in attack mode. Sailor Mars puts another card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I play my Trap Booster spell card! I discard one card from my hand to play one trap card from my hand!” Sailor Mars discards one card from her hand into her graveyard slot, puts the final card in her hand in the spell/trap slots, a hologram of a Call of the Haunted trap card appears on her side of the field, and Sailor Mars shouts out, darkly, “And I choose Call of the Haunted! This trap allows me to revive one monster and I choose my Darkblaze Dragon!” Just then Darkblaze Dragon (1200/1000-2400/2000) comes back to the field in attack mode.

 

Sean shouts out, horrified, “This can't be happening!”

 

Sailor Mars yells out, with a dark serious tone, “Oh, but it is dweebs! Maybe this will show your fucking `Master' turn to turn the Sailor Scouts into his puppets and against their princess and best friends! Monsters, burn these dorks to a crisp!” Darkblaze Dragon attacks Sean and Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys and Tyrant Dragon attack Regina. Regina yells out in extreme pain as she is burned and shocked from head to toe with dark electric energy as she loses 5300 life-points and Sean yells out as the same happens to him as he loses 2400 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

 

Final Score:

Sailor Mars: 2000

Sean: 0

Regina: 0

 

With the end of the duel, the final holograms along with black and dark violet with the black clouds with dark violet lightning fade away as the two now former SOL members fall to the ground on their backs and into unconsciousness.

 

Aster says, with an amazed tone, “Whoa! That was quick!”

Sailor Mars goes over to Aster, takes the keys from the Regina's unconscious form, and she says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, these dorks put me in a bad mood.”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, with a smirk, “Remind me not to get you mad ever again.”

 

Sailor Mars replies, slyly, “You know it, buster.” Sailor Mars goes to the injured Aster, helps him to his feet, and she says, with a plain tone, “Now, let's get you some help.”

 

Aster asks Sailor Mars, curiously, “Is this how you duel Society members?”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a dark serious tone, “No kidding. It is the only way to fight them. Harsh and with everything that we got. Meatball Head learned that one the hard way.”

 

Aster says, with a plain tone, “I think the Shadow Games are a bit much, but I can understand the philosophy. From what I know, this Light of Destruction turns the ones he controls into cold and heartless soldiers to use to brainwash others. He doesn't care who he hurts as long as he gets what he wants and he makes his mind-controlled Society members feel the same.”

 

Sailor Mars says, plainly, “Obviously.”

 

Aster asks, curiously, “What are we going to do with them?”

 

Sailor Mars replies, with a serious tone, “Since they aren't in that `Dork Club' anymore, we have to take them with us. We can't just leave them here. It isn't right to leave people.”

 

Aster asks, perplexed, “How are you going to get them back to your friends that can heal them?”

 

Sailor Mars tells Aster, seriously and with a smile, “Just leave that to me and just concentrating on not making your injuries worse. You are not going to die on me before I return the favor.”

 

Aster tells Sailor Mars, plainly, “You don't need to return anything.”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a smile, “Wrong, Phoenix. You protected and saved me. I've got to do the same. It is my duty as a Sailor Soldier.”

 

Aster says, with a smile, “Okay, whatever you say.”

 

Sailor Mars replies, with a sly and strong tone and smile, “You better believe it, tough guy.” Soon after, Sailor Mars accesses the elevator and prepares to move the injured Aster and the two former SOL members to the surface.

 

(Back to the rest of our heroes and heroines; Sometime soon after)

 

On the meanwhile, we return to the rest of our heroes and heroines as they continue their fight against Yami Bakura, Diabound, and the Sailor Animamates.

 

Sailor Iron Mouse creates multiple dark energy spheres and she yells out, with an evil sly smile, “Try this on for size! Millennium Iron Barrage!” Sailor Iron Mouse fires those dark energy spheres right at Valkyrie Sailor Moon.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon calls out, with a serious tone, “Don't count on it, Iron Mouse!”

 

“Silver Moon Imperium Tornado!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon spins around, creating a twister of wind and silver light energy, and the tornado negates the attack of Iron Mouse's attack.

 

Sailor Iron Mouse yells out, annoyed, “Hey! No fair!” Just then the twister comes towards Sailor Iron Mouse, she yelps in shock, but then the twister vanishes, leaving Valkyrie Sailor Moon spinning around with her right leg glowing with silver energy, and she slams her right leg into Sailor Iron Mouse's waist, knocking the air out of her before a huge explosion engulfs her, and she slams into the ground with terrific force creating a small crater around her fallen form.

 

Sailor Aluminum Siren says, stunned, “No way!”

 

Just then Valkyrie Sailor Moon calls out, slyly, “Way!” Sailor Aluminum Siren turns to face Valkyrie Sailor Moon only to get bashed in the face by a powerful cross by our Moon Princess, sending Aluminum Siren crashing into Iron Mouse, really hard.

 

Solar Sun gathers spirit energy into his right index finger and calls out, seriously, “Okay, `lady', time for you to learn your place around here! Spirit Gun!” Solar Sun fires a large sphere of spirit energy right at Sailor Tin Nyanko and she yells out in horror as the sphere slams into her. She yells out in extreme pain as the energy rips into her and sending her flying through the air, badly burnt and smoking, before crashing into the ground extremely hard, knocking her senseless.

 

“Universe Weather Sphere!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Universe creates a huge sphere of golden energy that she throws at Sailor Lead Crow and the golden sphere gathers water, wind, fire, and earth energies from all around it. When it slams into Lead Crow, she screams as she is hit with powerful elemental forces and when the explosion dies down, Sailor Lead Crow falls to the ground, hard, and is knocked senseless for this time.

 

Yami Bakura thinks in his mind, annoyed, “Damn Animamates! They are proving to be more and more useless even with the power that I gave them!” Yami Bakura shouts out, evilly, “Diabound! Show them real power! Helical Shockwave!” Diabound fires a spiral beam of energy right at Sailor Mini-Moon and the Sailor Quartet, but Sailor Saturn gets in the way.

 

“Twilight Silence Wall!”

 

Sailor Saturn creates a powerful barrier that stops Diabound's attack, but Yami Bakura doesn't even lose his evil smirk.

 

Yami Bakura thinks in his mind, evilly, “Gotcha!” Yami Bakura shouts out, evilly, “Combine powers! Helical Shockwave and Thunder Force Strike!”

 

Sailor Uranus yells out, perplexed, “What?!” Diabound fires a Thunder Force attack from its snake head that combines with the Helical Shockwave already launched and becomes a super-strong attack.

 

Tuxedo Mask calls out, horrified, “Watch out!” But it is too late and even Sailor Saturn's new power, the combined assault breaks through her shield and creating an explosion that sends Mini-Moon, the Sailor Quartet, and Sailor Saturn flying through the air. Sailor Mini-Moon and Sailor Quartet land in one area, hard, stunning them, and Sailor Saturn lands in another area just as hard, temporary knocking the wind out of her.

 

Sailor Neptune yells out, shocked, “Firefly!”

 

Syrus calls out, horrified, “Hotaru!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon calls out, stunned, “Rini!” Immediately, Valkyrie Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask go over to Sailor Mini-Moon and the Sailor Quartet while Sailor Neptune flies over to her `daughter' with Syrus right behind. But when they get close, a huge black cage with spikes comes out of the ground and traps Sailor Saturn inside. When Syrus and Sailor Neptune try to break through the cage, they cry out in pain as they are shocked with powerful dark electric energy, far stronger than they used in their Shadow Games with the SOL.

 

Bastion yells out, stunned, “Syrus!”

 

Sailor Uranus calls out, horrified, “Neptune!” Immediately, the fighting stops and the other heroes and heroines run to their fallen comrades' aid.

 

Solar Moon gets Syrus to his feet and he asks, concerned, “Are you okay, Syi?”

 

Syrus replies, “Other than a major headache in the morning, yeah, I'll be fine, Jay.”

 

Sailor Sun says, with a smile, “At least you haven't lost your sense of humor, Syrus.”

 

On the meanwhile, Sailor Saturn regains her senses, gets back to her feet, and asks, when she sees the cage entrapping her, “What is going on?!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, evilly, “What do you think, little girl?!” Everyone, including Hotaru, looks to see Bonz come up from the shadows inside of the cage and facing Sailor Saturn.

 

Sailor Libra asks, curiously, “Who is that creepy guy?”

 

Bastion says, with a serious tone, “I've seen his face before. His name is Bonz, a former member of Bandit Keith's, a former national champion, gang, but after Duelist Kingdom, he vanished with two associates of his when Bandit Keith took the star chips needed for them to continue in the tournament or so rumor has it. I heard rumors about him being in Battle City, but it is said that he vanished without a trace.”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil sly smile, “He was in Battle City and using scare tactics with fake masks and such to scare his opponents into giving up their locator cards, but when he faced me . . . well, you know what happens when you lose a real Shadow Game.”

 

Sailor Sun states, seriously, “Wait! You sent him to the Shadow Realm?!”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil smile on his lips, “Correct, but I had some use for him, so, I brought him back! I've given him new Shadow Powers that you can't imagine and he is going to take you out one by one! And first up, your precious Soldier of Saturn is his first victim!”

 

Sailor Uranus calls out, seriously, “I don't think so!”

 

Yami Bakura says, with an evil sly grin, “Don't even try it! You might have Shadow Powers, yourselves, but remember, I am the master of the Shadows! And I know a few tricks to make sure that you can use the other Millennium Items won't interfere in this Shadow Game!”

 

Bonz summons an Academy Duel Disk to his left wrist along with a dueling deck inside and Bonz says, with an evil sly smile, “That's right! And the only way to escape is to beat me in a Shadow Game! But even through you use zombie monsters like me, don't think you compare to me!”

 

Syrus tells Sailor Saturn, strongly, “Think again, zombie freak! I know Hotaru can beat you!”

 

Sailor Saturn replies, with a kind smile, “Thank you, Syrus-chan.”

 

Bonz asks Sailor Saturn, “Well, it seems like the little girl has some backbone after all!”

 

Sailor Jupiter calls out, seriously, “Come on, Hotaru-chan! You can beat this little freak!”

 

Sailor Saturn summons a duel disk to her left wrist, takes her dueling deck from her sub-space pocket, puts it in her duel disk, and she says, strongly, “I won't lost to you! Too many people are counting on me!”

 

Bonz yells out, evilly, “Don't count on it, little girl! When I'm done with you, you will be screaming in the shadows!” Soon after, the whole of the inside of the cage is surrounded by dark violet and black clouds.

 

Bastion says, seriously, “Oh, dear! This duel is already become a Shadow Game!”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon, who just recently regained her senses, calls out, worriedly, “Be careful, Hotaru!”

Sailor Saturn nods her head and replies, with a smile, “I will!” Bonz and Sailor Saturn activate their duel disks, their life-points counters display 4000 life-points each, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

“Duel!” Sailor Saturn and Bonz yells out as their duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Bonz: 4000

Sailor Neptune, who just regained consciousness, says, lowly and concerned, “Be careful, Firefly.”

 

Sailor Saturn draws one card from her deck and calls out, “I'll go first!” Sailor Saturn looks at her hand, puts one card on her duel disk, and calls out, “I summon Vampire Lady in defense mode!” Soon after, Vampire Lady (1550/1550) comes to the field in defense mode, but then a pink line connects Sailor Saturn to her monster. Sailor Saturn asks, curiously, “What the? Why is this line connecting me to my monster?”

 

Bonz says, with an evil sly grin, “Simple, little girl! Every time that your monsters are attack or destroy, you lose energy from your body and it will feel like it is taken from your beating heart!”

 

Sailor Mercury calls out, horrified, “You can't!”

 

Bonz says, with an evil smile, “I just did!”

 

Sailor Saturn puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, strongly, “I'm not afraid! I'll place this face-down and end my turn!”

 

Bonz draws one card from his deck and calls out, “You should be!” Bonz puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “First, I play my Mystical Space Typhoon to take care of that face-down card!” Just then a large tornado comes onto the field and destroys Sailor Saturn's face-down card, which was a Magic Cylinder trap card.

 

Sailor Venus yells out, stunned, “Oh no!”

 

Bonz says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Next, I play my Dragon Zombie in attack mode!” Soon after, Dragon Zombie (1600/0) comes to the field in attack mode while a pink line attached it to Bonz. Bonz yells out, with an evil smile, “Attack her pathetic vampire with Deadly Zombie Breath!” Dragon Zombie launches terrible fumes at Vampire Lady and she yells out in pain as she is destroyed. Sailor Saturn cries out in pain as some of her energy is taken and she clutches her chest.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon yells out, horrified, “Hotaru!”

 

Sailor Sun says, angered, “This is totally sick!”

 

Bonz replies, with an evil sly grin, “Thank you!” Bonz puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, with an evil sly smile, “I'll place this face-down and end my turn!”

 

Sailor Saturn draws one card from her deck and calls out, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “I'll play Pot of Greed and draw two more cards!” Sailor Saturn draws two more cards from her deck, puts one in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, “Next, I play my Call of the Mummy spell card! As long as this spell card remains on the field, I can call one zombie monster from my hand to the field as long as I have no other monsters out on my field!”

 

Bonz says, surprised, “Oh no!”

 

Sailor Saturn puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “And now, I summon my Vampire Lord in attack mode!” Soon after, Vampire Lord (2000/1500) comes to the field in attack mode while a pink line attaches it to Sailor Saturn's body. Sailor Saturn shouts out, seriously, “Vampire Lord, attack his zombie!” Vampire Lord unleashes a horde of bats that destroys Dragon Zombie causing Bonz to yell out in pain as his monster is destroyed and he winches more as he loses 400 life-points.

 

Sailor Mini-Moon cries out, excitedly, “Way to go, Hotaru! That's the way!”

 

Sailor Saturn says, seriously, “Now, my Vampire Lord's ability activates! Since I damaged your life-points with my Lord, I declare one type of card, monster, spell, or trap and you must send one card of the type that I declare from your deck to the graveyard! And I choose a monster!”

 

Bonz says, with an evil smile while getting out his deck, “Thank you. I was hoping that you would say that.”

 

Sailor Saturn asks, curiously, “Why is that?”

 

Bonz takes out one card from his deck, puts his deck back in his duel disk, displays one Snake Hair (1500/1200) monster card, sends it to his graveyard, and he says, evilly, “You will see soon enough.”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, with a snarl, “I don't like how that little zombie freak is smiling.”

 

Sailor Saturn puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “I'll end my turn with this!”

Now, by removing fusion material monsters from my grave, I can summon one zombie fusion monster from my fusion deck! And thanks to you, I got the cards that I need! Now, I remove my Dragon Zombie and my Snake Hair from my grave and take them out of play!” The two cards come out of the graveyard, Bonz puts them in his pocket, the two monsters appear on the field, and go into a fusion vortex.

 

Sailor Aries says, worriedly, “Oh, man! This isn't good!”

 

Bonz takes a fusion monster card from his fusion deck, puts it on his duel disk, and calls out, with an evil sly smile, “Meet the Great Mammoth of Goldfine!” Soon after, the Great Mammoth of Goldfine (2200/2000) comes to the field in attack mode while a pink line appears to attach it to Bonz. Bonz says, with an evil sly smile, “However, since it was summoned with Occult Fusion, its attack points are doubled while its defense is cut in half!”

 

Tyranno yells out, stunned, “Say what?!” Great Mammoth of Goldfine's stats change from 2200/2000 to 4400/1000!

 

Bonz tells Sailor Saturn, with an evil sly smile, “However, you get one additional card from your deck, but don't expect to use it anytime soon!” Sailor Saturn draws one card from her deck, Bonz pushes a button on his duel disk, and yells out, with an evil sly smile, “Ooh, I'm playing a trap card as well! Coffin Seller!” Bonz's face-down card is then revealed to be the Coffin Seller continuous trap card and he yells out, with an evil sly tone, “Now, when you lose a monster to the grave, you lose an additional three hundred life-points automatically!”

 

Sailor Mercury call out, horrified, “Oh no!”

 

Bonz yells out, with an evil sly smile, “Oh, yes! Now, my Mammoth, attack her pathetic fanged freak right now!” Great Mammoth of Goldfine rams Vampire Lord, Sailor Saturn yelps out in pain as it is destroyed, and her life-points drop by 2400 points. Bonz then says, with an evil sly smile, “Now, you lose an additional three hundred points, thanks to Coffin Seller! Talk about having a foot in the grave, huh?!” Sailor Saturn groans as she glows red while her life-points drop another 300.

Well, this is it! I've finished this chapter of Darkness Moon! Well, based on your opinions that I asked in the previous chapter, I've decided to continue to use this `good guy using mind-control for `naughty', but non-evil purposes' idea. Please tell me what you think and constructive criticism is very much welcome as it is always been! As you have guessed, the next chapter is going have plenty of action and adventure, but I'm going to try to make it mainly a comedy and parody filled chapter! With all of my stories, I feel that they are mainly action, adventure, romance, and drama chapters with comedy spread out, but I'm going to try my hand to make a chapter that's mainly full of comedy and parody with action/adventure. Wish me luck on that! Now, please read and review! Tell me what you think of this chapter! I will read your reviews as soon as possible and catch you on the flip side, Crossover, Dueling, and Moon fans!
