Chapter 29: Getting to the Finals

 

(The evening of the battle with Chaos)

 

In the cloudy skies hanging over Duel Academy in the evening hours, no one can see or expect the clouds to break away and rainbow colored aurora appear in the skies. Just then mysterious sphere of lights come down from the skies and outside of the well that Chazz had found Ojama Green and Ojama Black and the other `weak' Duel Monster spirits with various giggles coming from the spheres as they descend/ascend all around Duel Academy.

 

(The following morning; Inside of the Slifer Red dorm)

 

Within the Slifer Red dorm, we find our heroes and heroines, minus Kagome, assembled inside of Chazz's redesigned dorm room within the Slifer Red dorm.

 

Chazz asks, in his usual tone, “Okay, what is going on here?”

 

Bastion says, with a plain logical tone, “It's simple, Chazz. We are together to discuss strategy.”

 

Yusuke asks, curiously, “Why isn't Kagome here with us?”

 

Syrus says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, someone had to watch the Girls' Dorm to make sure that those Society Dweebs don't try anything.”

 

Miroku asks, curiously, “Is it wise to leave Kagome alone there?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “Kagome is far stronger than she used to be, monk. She can take care of herself. I offered to help out, but she told me that she will be just fine.”

 

Hikari says, with a smile, “Yeah! Kagome will be just fine.”

 

Jaden says, with a dark sly grin, “Any Society Dorks tries anything with her and they will get a nasty shock in more ways than one.”

 

Atticus says, with a nod, “You've got a point, dude.”

 

Lita asks, curiously, “So, what's our plan of action for today?”

 

Ami says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, with the major reduction in enemies that we face, our main focus should be the Society of Light at this time.”

 

Bastion says, with a dark logical tone, “However, I don't think we need to worry about them. It's their leader that we should focus on.”

 

Serena states, with a dark annoyed tone, “How can I ever forget?”

 

Rei says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, out of those jerks, he is the only one with some talent.”

 

Bastion says, with a dark logical tone, “We should realize that the final are drawing ever closer and most likely, the Light of Destruction will make its final move there.”

 

Ami says, with a dark plain tone, “Bastion-sempai is right. We will need to be ready for when he makes his move. He still seeks the satellite keys and the `Chosen Duelists'. We think that he might try for the one not infused with the Darkness of Salvation's power.”

 

Jasmine asks, curiously, “You mean Aster?”

 

Bastion says, with a dark logical tone, “Indeed. Since Sartorius was Aster best friend before this madness started, he might try to use that friendship in his favor.”

 

Alexis says, with a dark snarl, “I wouldn't be surprised by that.”

 

Atticus asks, with a dark curious tone, “So, what should we do about it?”

 

Ami says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, we are getting little information about that alien freak's plans, so, we can't really plan on how to counter his plans.”

 

Tyranno says, with a dark annoyed tone, “That's just great.”

 

Amara says, with a dark plain tone, “All we can do is keep going with the tournament and be on the lookout for any information.”

 

Chazz says, with his usual attitude, “That's fine by me! I intend to win this tournament and show everyone that I'm the best anyway.”

 

Rei asks, annoyed, “Is that all you think about?”

 

Chazz says, with a dark sly smile, “I hate that jerk as much as you do and I want to get back at him for using me like his little puppet. However, Chazz Princeton has also got other issues including proving that I'm the best.” Chazz says, glaring at Jaden, “Especially you, Jaden.”

 

Jaden says, with a sly smile, “Well, I can't wait to duel you, again.”

 

Chazz says, with a confident tone, “We will see about that Slacker.”

 

Mina asks Mindy, with a curious tone, “Is this always like this between?”

 

Mindy says, with a nod, “Yep!”

 

Seira gets to her feet and Serena asks her sister, “Where are you going Seira?”

 

Seira says, with a plain tone, “I'm not the kind of girl that sits around. I'm going to help Kagome keep an eye on the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorms.”

 

Inuyasha gets to his feet and says, plainly, “Yeah! I hear you! Personally, I don't like waiting around myself! I'll go with you. Kagome has got to have her hands full with keeping that dorm in line.”

 

Ami says, with a nod, “Okay. We'll contact you about our plans where we are ready.”

 

Seira says, with a nod, “Okay, Ami. See you later.”

 

Sango says, with a plain tone, “Stay safe, Inuyasha. We might have defeated Naraku, but who knows what damage the Light of Destruction has caused will bring next.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a shrug, “Whatever. I say to `bring it on'. I'll need some exercise in the morning.” Soon after, Seira and Inuyasha head towards the front door, they go through the front door, and they close it behind them as they prepare to head off to the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm.

 

Lita says, with an amazed expression, “I've got to say that confidence isn't a problem with him.”

 

Miroku says, with a nod, “Yes. Sometimes too much confidence is Inuyasha's real problem.”

 

Shippo says, with a sigh, “Yeah.”

 

Sango is petting Kirara in her `kitten form' and she says, with a smile, “Well, it isn't like that Inuyasha hasn't gotten us out of many jams before.”

 

Michelle asks, curiously, “I'm curious: Do you know of any other family other than that Sesshomaru character?”

 

Miroku says, with a plain tone, “No, we don't. However, Kagome and the rest of us really never got to ask.”

 

Shippo says, with a smile, “Personally, if Inuyasha had anymore family, I doubt they would be like him. He is one of a kind.” However, what Shippo doesn't know is that he is about to find out how wrong he truly is . . .

 

(At the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm; Sometime later)

 

Meanwhile, in front of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm, we find our Sailor Senshi of the Stars and reincarnated miko looking up to the clear blue skies with a smile on her lips.

 

Kagome says, with a smile, “It's a beautiful day.” Kagome then looks over the Girls' Dorm and she says, with a smile, “It was nice to sleep in the Girls' Dorm for once, but it still needs some work.” Just then Kagome hears a rustling in the bushes and trees and she looks around, but she doesn't find anyone. Kagome says, shaking her head with a calm smile, “I must be getting too jittery. I'm starting to hear things.”

 

However, within the bushes and trees, Kagome doesn't notice a figure watching her and the figure says, in a low female voice, “I've finally found her. That rotten wench that sealed me into that tree is right here in front of me. She might be wearing strange clothing, but I know that it is her.”

 

Kagome says, with a plain tone, “Well, with all that's going on, it is quite nice for some piece for once.”

 

Just then a female voice booms, with a strong tone, “That's what you think, Kikyo!” Kagome yelps at the sound of the voice and turns to face the source of the voice to see someone new in front of her.

 

The figure in front of Kagome looks to be a dog demon that looks exactly like a female version of Inuyasha, except her silver hair is in a ponytail, she has a flawless female body that shows even under her yellow female version of Inuyasha's red kimono, her golden eyes are similar to Inuyasha's, she has golden high-heeled boots similar to Eternal Sailor Moon's boots with the Millennium Symbol on the toes area, her claws are the same size as Inuyasha's claws, and she has a sheath for a sword similar to the Light Hawk Sword that Tenchi has from his `Tenchi Muyo' anime series.

 

Kagome thinks in her mind, surprised, “Whoa! She looks like a female version of Inuyasha!”

 

The female figure says, with an angered snarl, “I've finally found you, Kikyo! And this time, you'll pay!”

 

Kagome says, stunned, “Huh? I'm not Kikyo! And who are you?!”

 

The female dog demon yells out, strongly, “Don't play dumb with me!” Soon after, the female dog demon uses incredible super-speed to get close to Kagome and she attacks with her claws in which Kagome barely dodges.

 

Kagome yells out, stunned, “Yow! I barely dodged that!”

 

The female dog demon says, with a snarl, “You won't dodge this!” Soon after, the female dog demon gives Kagome a swift kick that sends her flying across the ground. The female dog demon says, with a sly smile, “This time, witch, I've got the power to make sure that you pay for what you did! You won't get me this time, Kikyo! I've got some powerful new `upgrades'!”

 

Kagome calls out, annoyed, “I'm not Kikyo! What does it take to get past your head about that?!”

 

The female dog demon calls out, angrily, “Don't think that you will trick me with your lies, Kikyo!”

 

Kagome thinks in her mind, annoyed, “Man! She can quite as stubborn as Inuyasha!”

 

The female dog demon says, with a sly grin, “Maybe I should show off some of my new powers to you before I make you pay Kikyo!”

 

“Valkyrie Big Bang Power, Make-up!”

 

Soon after, this female dog demon's yellow kimono was ripped off her body and was wrapped with blue colored ribbons, changing her clothes to an armored Sailor fuku.

 

The female dog demon's armored Sailor Scout fuku consists of her head and scalp covered in a golden armored helmet that covers most of her head, expect her nose, eyes, and mouth, there is one black wing attached to each side of her helmet covering her cheekbones, her armored helmet has holes that allow her dog ears to come out of her helmet, her silver hair flowing down from the back of her new helmet, there is a fiery-red starburst sigil on her forehead, her neck has a silver metallic choker with a fiery red starburst jewel in the center of the choker with a black star jewel on the left side of the starburst jewel and a silver star jewel on the right of the starburst jewel, a golden eight-pointed star locket is attached below the center of the choker with a beautiful sparkling diamond in the center of the star locket with the fiery-red starburst sigil imprinted the center of the diamond, her chest and body are covered in tight fitting fiery-red and golden armor, showing off the shape and curves of her body as well as her bust up to the point just before it become unsightly, around the bust area of her chest there is a golden diamond-like heart-shaped brooch with fiery-red starburst sigil and Millennium Symbol in the center of the brooch with six fiery-red and golden angel wings attached to the brooch, her arms are covered in a tight fitting black latex that's fingerless and is connected to a latex bodysuit well-hidden under her new fiery-red and golden armor, she has silver colored armored shoulder pads similar to Magnamon's shoulder pads in design with a silver dog demon seen in Japanese literature that has a fiery-red starburst sigil on its body imprinted on each shoulder pads, her hands and lower arms had fiery-red and golden armored gantlets covering the latex that are fingerless with a rainbow cross jewel with a diamond in the center of each golden cross jewel in the backhand portion of each gantlet along with two fiery-red and golden angel wings attached to the sides of the gantlets, she has dark violet armored elbow pads covering her elbows over the latex, on her latex covered upper arms, her exposed fingernails are black in color with fiery-red starburst jewels on each fingernail, she has fiery-red and golden armored mini-skirt that the same size, length, and width, as the other Valkyrie Sailor Scouts mini-skirts, but this mini-skirt is adorned with all types of jewels, across her waist is a black armored belt with a prism-like diamond in the shape of eight-pointed star with the fiery-red starburst sigil in the center of the diamond acting as the belt buckle, on the right side of the armored belt there is a sheath for a sacred sword with a similar to Tenchi's Light Hawk Sword, but it has a rainbow colored hilt with silver symbols all over the hilt and golden colored blade on the left side of the armored belt contain contains an open sheath for rainbow version of the Magi-Staff used by the Mystic Force Power Rangers, but with a beautiful silver diamond on top of the staff with the fiery-red starburst sigil jewel in the center of the diamond and rainbow heart jewel on the top center of portion of the staff, she has black armored kneepads on her knees, her whole of her lower legs are covered in the Millennium Boots and coming out of her back are six beautiful huge and fluffy fiery-red and golden angel wings.

 

Kagome yells out, stunned, “What the?! No way! A demon Sailor Scout?”

 

The female dog demon, in her new Sailor Scout form, asks, perplexed, “Hey! How do you know about what this uniform is about Kikyo?”

 

Kagome says, annoyed, “How many times do I have to tell you that I'm not Kikyo? Fine! If you want proof, well, here it is!” Kagome then gets out her Valkyrie Sailor Transformation device.

 

“Valkyrie Star Power, Make-up!”

 

Soon after, Kagome is engulfed in bright lights as her uniform is torn away and her armored Sailor Fuku replaces it on her form causing Valkyrie Sailor Star to appear in place of Kagome.

 

The female dog demon Valkyrie Sailor Scout asks, stunned, “What the?!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star asks, seriously, “The name is Valkyrie Sailor Star! Can you at least give me a name before we start fighting?”

 

The female dog demon Valkyrie Sailor Scout replies, with a serious glare, “The name is Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang. And I've been looking for you, star brat.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star asks, perplexed, “What do you mean? And how does a demon get Sailor Scout powers?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang replies, with a sly smile, “Simple. One, I'm only a half-demon. And two, you and I have old score to settle. Namely, around five millennia in the past when you were Princess Kisara. Okay, I admit it. You are not Kikyo because Kikyo never had your powers, but at least I've got you to knock around.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star asks, perplexed, “What did I ever do to you?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang says, with a snarl, “You were born!” Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang rushes at Valkyrie Sailor Star at incredible super-speed and Valkyrie Sailor Star barely dodges by leaping into the sky. Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang leaps into the sky and draws her sword in which she immediately uses to slash Valkyrie Sailor Star, but she manages to block with lance weapon. Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang lashes out with her sword, again, and forcing Valkyrie Sailor Star into the defensive.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star thinks in her mind, stunned, “She is so fast and so powerful!” Valkyrie Sailor Star leaps back in the air and launches a wave of star energy at her opponent, but her half-demon Valkyrie Sailor Scout opponent easily manages to fly out of the way. The two of them quickly clash weapons again, but Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang manages spin around and land a powerful kick to Valkyrie Sailor Star's back and she yelps as she is knocked to the ground, hard, on her stomach with a loud `thud' causing her to be stunned for a moment. Valkyrie Sailor Star quickly rolls around, but she only finds the point of Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang's blade at her neck.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang says, with a sly smile, “Not so high and mighty now, Kisara.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star says, with a stunned tone, “Who are you?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang says, with a snarl, “Someone that you shouldn't have pissed off priestess!” But just then Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang yelps out in pain as a sphere of shadow energy hits her in the back causing Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang to tumble head over heels over Valkyrie Sailor Star and onto the ground in front of her rolling several yards before she stops with her back towards Valkyrie Sailor Star, but she is only momentary stunned. Immediately, Taigoku and Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse immediately come to Valkyrie Sailor Star's aid.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse asks Valkyrie Sailor Star, “Are you okay?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star replies, with a smile, “Thanks to you, Seira.”

 

Taigoku asks, perplexed, “Who in the world is that? She is a Sailor Scout like you! Isn't she supposed to be on our side? Why is she fighting you?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang gasps and she thinks in her mind, “That voice!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star replies, perplexed, “I don't know! For one thing, she is a half-demon!”

 

Taigoku and Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse gasp in shock and Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse asks, perplexed, “What? No way!”

 

Taigoku states, with a serious tone, “Well, the Sun Kingdom royals are all half-demons remember?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse says, with a nod, “Right. Good point.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star says, with a nod, “Well, she seems to know as Princess Kisara and not in a good way.” The three of them immediately watch Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang get to her feet and she looks at Taigoku in amazement.

 

Taigoku yells out, strongly, “Okay, who are you? Why are you attacking her?”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang asks, stunned, “Inuyasha?”

 

Taigoku asks, perplexed, “Huh? How do you know my name?” Valkyrie Sailor Big Bang then transforms back into the female dog hanyou and Taigoku yells out, stunned, “Melody?!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star asks, perplexed, “You know her?”

 

Taigoku transforms back into Inuyasha and he says, seriously, “Yeah! She is my sister!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star yells out, shocked, “Sister?! You never told us that you had a sister!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sly smile, “You never asked.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Star says, with a sweatdrop, “I should have seen that coming.” Valkyrie Sailor Star transforms back into Kagome while Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse transforms back into Seira.

 

Inuyasha asks Melody, “Melody, what you are doing? And when did you get here?”

 

Melody says, with a serious tone, “Looking for you, that's what. I've been searching all over our home for a long time since I got unsealed from that tree from that rotten wench.”

 

Kagome asks, curiously, “Let me guess: Kikyo?”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “No duh, genius. I was going to make her pay for what she did to me and my brother until I found you, Kisara. Personally, I don't get why you look a lot like her . . .”

 

Kagome says, with a nervous tone, “Well, I am her reincarnation as well as Kisara.”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “What?!”

 

Inuyasha tells Kagome, seriously, “Kagome, did you have to tell her that?!”

 

Melody states, with a snarl, “And let me guess, bro, she has you wrapped around her pinky?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a nod, “Yes, I love her.”

 

Melody says, annoyed, “Great. Same darn priestess in three lifetimes. When are you going to learn that a girl like her is nothing but trouble?”

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, “What's her problem with me, Inuyasha? I can understand about the Kikyo part of me.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Melody has a problem with priestess, not just Kikyo. She practically hates all priestess and thinks that they are nothing, but dirt and trash. Any time that she finds a priestess, she tries to destroy them. When Kikyo and I got together, let's just say Melody was far from pleased.”

Kagome says, lowly and with a nod of understanding, “Oh.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Melody learned Demonic Priestess magic in order to combat against priestess and their magic.”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “I wanted to give those witches a taste of their own medicine.”

 

Inuyasha asks Melody, “Okay, Melody, how did you get here anyway?”

 

Melody replies, with a plain tone, “After following your scent all around our home, I jumped into the well and found my way into this weird new place. After you got yourself stupidly sealed by that wench, Kikyo, who I knew would betray you, she managed to get the jump on me when I tried to take her out of her taking you away from me. I'm surprised that she had the strength to defeat me with that wound she had.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Well, as you would expect, she died and was reincarnated into Kagome.”

 

Melody says, with a quirk, “Kagome, huh? So, this is the wench's newest life, huh? She was better looking when she was Kikyo and Kisara.”

 

Kagome yells out, insulted, “Hey!”

 

Inuyasha tells Melody, “I don't know when and where you woke up, Melody, but it looks like you have been out of the loop. At least tell me that you heard of some creep named Naraku.”

 

Melody says, with a roll of her eyes, “Who hasn't back in our home? Plenty of demons and humans were talking about that big bad creep. He was going after the Sacred Jewel, which I hear that some idiot shattered into pieces.” Melody asks, with an annoyed tone, “And you are that idiot, aren't you?”

 

Kagome says, with a solemn tone, “Well, Inuyasha and I did manage to gather the pieces back together.”

 

Melody says, with a serious tone, “With my brother's strength being in the main key in you getting those shards back.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Okay, Melody, cool it!” Inuyasha tells Melody, “Melody, it wasn't Kikyo that betrayed me back then. She and I were tricked by Naraku.”

 

Melody asks, perplexed, “What do you mean?” Inuyasha then explains about Naraku, his creation, what he did to Kikyo and Inuyasha back in the Feudal Era, and Kagome's and his battles to defeat him. When Inuyasha was done, Melody says, with a plain tone, “So, this jerk disguised himself as you and Kikyo to turn both of you against each other. Well, that idiot priestess should have told the difference between you.”

 

Inuyasha says, seriously, “Melody, we were both fooled by that jerk! Believe me, my senses could not tell the difference between him and the real Kikyo at that time. He really fooled both of us and our senses.”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “Whatever.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sigh, “Okay, but about those new powers of yours. Where and when did you get them? And how do you know about Kagome's life as Princess Kisara? You seem to know plenty about her.”

 

Melody says, with an annoyed tone, “Oh, I know Kisara all too well. Like her life as Kikyo, I knew that she would lead you into danger.”

 

Kagome asks, surprised, “Wait! You are not surprised that Inuyasha is Taigoku?”

 

Melody says, rolling her eyes, “No duh, fool! I am Taigoku's sister, Sestuna! The same one that gave him his Millennium Pendant!”

 

Kagome and Inuyasha yell out in unison and in shock, “Say what?!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, emotionlessly, “It's true. Taigoku did have a sibling back in the age of the Silver Millennium.” Everyone looks to see none other than Sesshomaru, Rin, and Jaken walking up towards them.

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “When did you get here asshole?!”

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, “She doesn't like him either, does she?”

 

Inuyasha replies, plainly, “No kidding, Kagome.”

 

Seira asks, curiously, “What do you mean that Taigoku had a sibling back in the Silver Millennium?”

 

Sesshomaru says, with his classic emotionless tone, “Have you ever wondered where Taigoku's Millennium Item came since there are only seven Millennium Items spoken about by humans? Well, it is because Taigoku's Millennium Item was created in a similar fashion to the other seven and it took someone with incredible mastery of magic and mysticism to do it. It was Taigoku's sister who went by name of Sestuna.”

 

Kagome asks, surprised, “Sestuna?”

 

Sesshomaru says, with a nod, “Yes. He is the legendary Dog Demon's elder twin sister and she was very overly protective of him. Like Taigoku, she was a half-demon and an expert on Demonic Priestess magic. She didn't like many magicians expect those like in Pharaoh Atem's court namely Mana and the human that became the first Dark Magician, Mahad. Priestesses were also among the `types' of people that she didn't like and Princess Kisara, your previous life, miko, was a priestess. When Taigoku and she fell in love, Sestuna was far less than pleased.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “If she is supposed to be Melody's past life, I'm not surprised.”

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “Indeed, Inuyasha. Melody is wearing the Millennium Boots, another Millennium Item that she developed, and that only she can take off. And the Millennium Pendant and Millennium Boots were items made to protect you, as Taigoku, and her, as Sestuna, from Priestess Magic. Somehow, Melody managed to regain her ancient powers and ancient memories.”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “Obviously, genius.”

 

Jaken says, with an annoyed tone, “Hey, Lady Melody, why don't you be more respectful to Lord Sesshomaru?”

 

Melody says, glaring at Jaken deadly, “And why don't you shut up before I rip you a new one troll?”

 

Sesshomaru says, with a plain tone, “I see that your vulgar attitude hasn't changed as well. You are just as you always were, my young half-breed sister.”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “You are starting to piss me off jerk!” Melody asks, glaring at Rin, who hides behind Sesshomaru's right leg, “Huh? What's with the brat? And that girl is human, I can smell it. Why are you with a human girl? I thought that you don't like all humans.”

 

Sesshomaru says, with a plain tone, “My business with Rin, this human girl that you speak of, is no business of yours Melody. She is under my protection, so, if you attempt anything with her, you will suffer greatly.”

 

Melody says, with a taunting tone, “Ooh, I'm so scared.”

 

Sesshomaru removes Tokijin from its sheath and he says, plainly, “You should be Melody.”

 

Melody says, with a cocky smile on her lips, “Well, guess what? I'm not.”

 

Sesshomaru says, with a plain tone, “As you wish, Melody.” Sesshomaru tells Jaken, “Jaken, take Rin a safe distance into the bushes and trees. I'm going to unleash my power.”

 

Inuyasha asks, perplexed, “What do you mean?”

 

Jaken says, with a fearful tone, “Yes . . . Yes, Lord Sesshomaru!” Immediately, Jaken grabs Rin's left hand and he tells her, “Rin, we must go immediately!”

 

Rin asks Jaken, “By why Lord Jaken?”

 

Jaken tells Rin, with a stern tone, “Young lady, there are some things that you don't question your elders on.”

 

Rin says, with a nod, “Yes, Lord Jaken.”

 

Jaken says, with a nod, “Good girl. Come.” Immediately, Jaken runs off to the bushes with Rin while Sesshomaru's demonic aura blazes to life with more and more power.

 

Kagome says, stunned, “Whoa! His aura! It's growing! He never showed this power with Naraku!”

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “It was because I have trained to increase my strength for far longer than you have imagined, but even through I've gained great power, the excess energy tends to cause unnecessary damage. However, Melody, with her ancient powers and abilities, leaves me with no other choice. I shall unleash this power and she shall bare witness. I would advise you get your miko and Lady Seira away from here.” Just then Sesshomaru's demonic aura transforms into a bright golden aura causing the ground to quake and greatly crack around his feet causing a bit of depression to form and Sesshomaru says, with a plain tone, “This is the power that I worked. This is the power of Sacred Energy. A level of power higher than human spiritual energy and demonic energy and only one that has trained for decades can harness such power.”

 

Melody thinks in her mind, stunned, “What the heck?! How did this jerk's energy get so high?”

 

Inuyasha says, stunned, “What the heck?! He's been holding back all this power all this time?! I can't believe it!”

 

Seira says, with a plain tone and amazed expression, “Well, you had better believe it, Inuyasha.”

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “Now, Melody, it is time for you to be put in your place.” Sesshomaru then uses incredible new super-speed to get to Melody and with one swift kick, he launches her into the air. The energy surrounding his body takes on the form of golden wings behind his back and he flies up into the sky.

 

Kagome says, amazed, “Sesshomaru is flying!”

 

Inuyasha says, stunned and somewhat annoyed, “You've got to be kidding me!” Melody has quickly recovered from the kick that sent her airborne and sees Sesshomaru flying towards her causing her to draw her sword in which clashes with Sesshomaru's Tokijin. Soon after, the two of them have a high-speed aerial battle as Melody slowly falls towards the ground at increasing speed.

 

Sesshomaru says, plainly, “Give up, Melody. With my Sacred Energy, I can fly and glide unlike other demons without wings and humans. You can't fly unless you have your Senshi powers.”

 

Melody says, with a sly smirk, “Thanks. You just gave me the way to squash you flat jerk.” However, as Melody prepares to transform, she lets her guard down.

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “Terrible mistake. One you shall pay for.” Sesshomaru then gathers his energy into Tokijin, the demonic swords struggles against the energy, but Sesshomaru's power overwhelms the evil sword and Sesshomaru creates a powerful golden energy dragon that rams into Melody's chest before she can regain her guard. Soon after, Melody is rammed into the ground causing an explosion of dirt and dust that's sent high into the air. Inuyasha uses his body to protect Kagome and Seira, but he glances back at where Melody hit the ground.

 

Inuyasha calls out, shocked, “Melody!” When the smoke and dust cleared, Melody was in the center of a deep crater in front of the Girls' Dorm, but she had only her kimono somewhat torn up, small nasty burn from where the energy dragon hit her, and several multiple cuts as well as stunned for a few seconds.

 

However, Melody quickly regains her senses, gets to a sitting position, and she says, with an angered snarl, “Okay, you are so . . .” However, she finds the blade of Sesshomaru's Tokijin at her neck and Sesshomaru standing behind her with an emotionless look on his face.

 

Inuyasha yells out, angrily, “Get away from my sister or I will . . .”

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “Do not worry, Inuyasha. I shall not soil my hands on her blood, but not because she is family.” Sesshomaru then takes his sword's blade from Melody's neck and sheaths his sword. Sesshomaru leaps out of the crater and Rin runs towards him with Jaken behind her.

 

Rin yells out, “Lord Sesshomaru, are you okay?”

 

Jaken says, with a serious tone, “Rin, get back here!” Jaken thinks in his mind, “I swear children are nothing, but trouble even if they are human, demon, or half-breed!”

 

When Rin gets to Sesshomaru, he says, with a plain tone, “I am just fine, Rin.” Sesshomaru tells Jaken, “Jaken, we are going.”

 

Jaken asks Sesshomaru, perplexed, “My lord?”

 

Sesshomaru's aura dies down until it is gone and he says, plainly, “This battle is over. I have won.” Sesshomaru turns away, Rin follows him, and Jaken does the same as Melody leaps out of the crater.

 

Melody yells out, angrily, “What?! This battle isn't over! I'm still breathing.”

 

Sesshomaru says, with an emotionless tone, “Because I let you, Melody. I let you live. You had the ability to fight me on a quite even plain, but I easily sent into the dirt. It was because you let your emotions get the better of you. With your ancient powers, you were confident in your skills. Actually, you were too confident and overconfidence leads to even the greatest warrior's demise. You let your guard down at one point and I took advantage of it. If someone like Naraku saw that and knew that your power matched him or her, they would make sure that you wouldn't be able to use it. You have the power, but you are far from using it effectively. I will not fight one that does not know how to use their power effectively. If you wish for a rematch, come back when you do.”

 

Melody yells out, angrily, “Why you?!”

 

Inuyasha says, seriously, “Melody, let it go!”

 

Melody turns to Inuyasha and yells out, seriously and angrily, “Are you nuts, brother? Let it go! He made a mockery of me! And do you think that I will let go of that?!”

 

Inuyasha yells out, strongly, “And what do you think that will happen when you face him again?! I hate to admit it, but that jerk is right! You are just as powerful or maybe more powerful than him, but he used his power effectively! You let your own power get to your head!”

 

Kagome thinks in her mind, nervously, “I never thought I hear Inuyasha say that about letting one's power get to his or her head!” Kagome looks to where Sesshomaru and his group was, doesn't see them anymore, and she says, plainly, “Hey! They're gone!”

 

Everyone looks to where Sesshomaru and his group were, saw that they were gone, and Melody yells out, angrily, “That coward!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a snort, “He didn't leave because he was a coward. The jerk didn't feel you were worth his time.”

 

Melody yells out, angrily, “WHAT?!”

 

Inuyasha says, with an annoyed tone, “Oh, man! Me and my big mouth.”

 

Melody exclaims, with an angered tone, “How dare that rotten jerk consider me not worth his time? Ooh, the next time that I see him, I'll make his new powers look like a joke! I show him not to make a mockery of my Millennium Boots and Sailor Senshi powers!”

 

Seira asks Inuyasha, “Has this happened before?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sigh, “Yep.”

 

Kagome says, with a sigh, “Something tells me that we are going to need to get used to this for awhile.” As Kagome, Seira, and Inuyasha watch Melody give off an angry berate of Sesshomaru, they don't notice the little sphere giving off child-like giggles as they fly around and into the distance.

 

(During the evening hours of Duel Academy)

 

In the star-filled evening of Duel Academy, we find that the whole island is quiet expect a few GX tournament participants at the ends of the island trying to get a few more medals in. However, in the areas of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm, Ra Yellow Dorm, and Slifer Red dorm, small sphere like lights start to pop up, and child-like giggles are head. But then more and more spheres of light appear and child-like giggles are heard. And soon enough, the spheres of light began to move around wildly and the child-like giggles are getting louder and louder.

 

Just then one of the light spheres at the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm yells out, in a female child-like voice, “I'm so glad that we are finally free!” Soon after, the sphere of light grows bigger and a figure appears in the sphere of light. The sphere of light then turns into Card Ejector, a little fairy like monster with a violet magician's hat, green hair under the hat, blue eyes, child-like pink hue on her cheeks, red and pink magician's dress, and small red magical staff.

 

Just then another sphere appears and several child-like voices come from that sphere saying in unison, “Yeah! This is going to be fun!” Just then small figures appear from the expanding sphere of light and the sphere of light turns into three fairies known in unison as Dancing Fairy. A third and four spheres appear and out of them Toon Gemini Elf and Toon Goblin Attack Force, a cartoon-like version of Goblin Attack Force, also appear.

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, in a seductive female tone, “Yeah. We don't get out from our realms like this.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with enticing female voice, “No kidding. Now, we can get out there and have some fun.”

 

The Toon Goblin Attack Force says, in a cartoon gruff voice, “What shall we do first?”

 

Just then a fifth voice, a female voice, calls out, “These humans sound like a lot of fun. Why don't we have some fun with them?” The Duel Monsters look towards the source of the voice and they find a Toon Mermaid floating towards them.

 

Card Ejector asks, curiously, “What do you mean Toon Mermaid?”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly smile, “Have some fun with them. Spook them, play pranks of them, and such. Nothing that will really hurt them, but having some fun that will give us quite a few laughs.”

 

Toon Goblin Attack Force says, nodding their head in a cartoon-like fashion, “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a giggle, “Ooh, I like that idea.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a nod, “That's good. Maybe we can show these humans who we Duel Monsters have fun.”

 

Dancing Fairy say in unison, “Okay!”

 

Just then another voice shouts out, “Hey! What about us?!” Just then the Duel Monsters look to see Toon Masked Sorcerer, Armor Breaker, and Card Blocker floating towards them.

 

Card Ejector says, with a blush, “Hi, Card Blocker.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly smile, “Ooh, Toon Masked Sorcerer, this is great!”

 

Dancing Fairy says, nervously, “Do we have to invite him? He is kind of creepy.”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a seductive smile, “Oh, come on, don't be little human girls. Sure, Toon Masked Sorcerer might be a bit `extreme' to his pranks and fun, but he is quite the hoot.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly and enticing tone, “Yeah. He really knows how to make a party.”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a cartoon-like deep male voice, “I'm glad that I could come. Plus, I've also brought a friend with us.”

 

Dancing Fairy asks, curiously, “A friend?” Just then Witty Phantom appears behind Toon Masked Sorcerer.

 

Witty Phantom says, in a sly handsome male voice, “Good evening.”

 

Toon Mermaid asks, stunned, “You are friends with Witty Phantom?!”

 

Witty Phantom says, performing some kind of magic tricks, “Not just any Witty Phantom, my dear. Unlike many in my kind, I'm `witty' in another way. I love trickery and pranks. And when I heard that Toon Masked Sorcerer is going to have some fun with these humans, how could I refuse?”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a sly grin, “Don't worry, he will be a blast!”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly smile, “I heard that Witty Phantoms were quite the pranksters and tricksters when they were not trying to have fun over death of others.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a smile, “Well, I can assure you my beautiful undersea mistress that there will be no death and a whole lot of laughs.” Witty Phantom then takes Toon Mermaid's right hand and kisses it causing her to blush.

 

Dancing Fairy say in unison, nervously, “I don't know . . .”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly tone, “Don't worry, trust us. It will be fun and when it is all over, even the humans will have a laugh or two.”

 

Witty Phantom thinks in his mind, slyly, “True. However, I'm also into causing humans panic and confusion as well as fear! This shall be my fun!”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a sly tone, “Shall we get started?” The group nod their heads through the Dancing Fairies reluctantly nod their heads and soon enough, all of them headed inside.

 

(On the meanwhile; Outside of the Ra Yellow dorms)

 

Outside of the Ra Yellow dorms, we find what looks like similar spheres of light floating around, but one of them turns into a Witch of the Black Forest, a second turns into Crystal Seer, a third one turns into a Dark Red Enchanter, a fourth one turns into Miracle Flipper, and a fifth and final one turns into Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner, a female humanoid monster with blond hair with a golden crown on her scalp, wearing a grayish-white sleeveless dress, golden bracelets on her upper arms and her wrists, and brown regular female shoes.

 

Dark Red Enchanter asks, with a deep male voice, “Is there where the disruption is?”

 

Crystal Seer says, in a deep female voice like a female seer would talk in, “No. But I sense a lot of powerful magic here. And I've found something interesting.”

 

Miracle Flipper asks, in a child-like voice, “What is it Crystal Seer?”

 

Crystal Seer says, with a curious tone, “I sense two people under the ancient magic of the Pharaohs.”

 

Lumina says, with a beautiful female voice, “Interesting indeed, Crystal Seer. I saw that we check it out and find these two.”

 

Crystal Seer then says, moving her hands around her glowing water-like crystal ball, “I shall make things simple. I shall summon these two souls into a `combined dream' of our making and we shall enter that dream as well. I believe that we shall remove the spell from them as well.”

 

Dark Red Enchanter says, with a nod, “Wise idea. We shall see them as they were before the spell and what happened to put them under it.”

 

Lumina says, with a sly smile, “Our venture into the human world might be interesting yet.”

 

Witch of the Black Forest says, with a high female voice, “I am ready when you are.”

 

After a minute or two, Crystal Seer says, with a plain tone, “It is done. Now, let us the dream of our creation.” Soon after, a crystal-blue mist surrounds the five monsters and after a minute, it starts to fade. When it has fully fades away, the monsters have vanished from our eyes into the mysterious `dream' of their creation.

 

(Back in the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm; A short time soon after)

 

Inside of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm, which is showing to be currently being remodeled and repainted, we find the group of Duel Monsters' outside of the dorm assembled in the center of the hallways leading in the rooms.

 

Witty Phantom says, in a whisper, “Now, we have to be quiet. Like many of us, humans sleep during the evening time of their realm.”

 

Card Ejector asks, curiously, “So, what should we do first?”

 

Witty Phantom tells them, “I think that the male Duel Monsters should stay out here and cloak themselves from sight unless they come out here.”

 

Toon Goblin Attack Force asks, curiously, “Why is that?”

 

The brown hair Toon Gemini Elf hits all of them in the head and she says, with a snarl, “Idiot. You are boys and we are girls.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a shake of his head and low tone, “Goblin, they make perfect followers, but poor listeners.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sigh, “No joke.”

 

Witty Phantom thinks in his mind, with a sinister smile, “But personally, I do want to respect their privacy, but when some of them come out screaming in fear, I'll be waiting to spread my own terror and fiendish pranks that will have these humans having nightmares. The looks of fear and surprise on their faces just makes me giddy as a Toon Monster and in fact, I've got one more of my pet! I can't wait to use him!”

 

Toon Mermaid says, in a whisper, “Okay, we'll `spook' out a couple for your pranks.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a bow, “Thank you, my dear.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly grin, “Okay, girls, time to get to work.” Soon after, Card Ejector, Toon Mermaid, Toon Gemini Elf, and Dancing Fairy, with a reluctant look on her face, had off to play whatever `games', pranks, and scares on them while Witty Phantom, Toon Goblin Attack Force, Armor Breaker, Card Blocker, and Toon Masked Sorcerer remained behind.

 

When the four female monsters are gone, Toon Masked Sorcerer whispers, with a moan of annoyance, “Why did we have to stay here while they are playing with the humans?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly smile, “I'm not stopping you, my friend. Why don't you go out and have fun? But you have to remember that I'm not to blame if those girls yell at you.”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer gives a quiet goofy cartoon-like laugh and he says, with a sly smile, “Oh, boy. I'm going to show these humans what fun is all about.” Toon Masked Sorcerer then pulls out whoopee cushions, firecrackers, fake blood, fake slime, canisters of some kind of sticky substance, and various other items used in childhood and teenage pranks along with a real-like version of the Toon Mask. Soon after, Toon Masked Sorcerer heads off for `fun and games' with what looks like tons of pranks.

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly smile and low voice, “Ah, how the simple enjoy simple pleasures.”

 

Toon Goblin Attack Force asks, curiously, “Um, what do we do?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly grin, “Well, my friend, we are going to prepare our prank.”

 

Armor Breaker asks, curiously, “How are we going to do that?”

 

Witty Phantom takes out some kind of blue print from his formal coat and he says, with a wide sly grin, “I'm glad that you asked, my friend, especially since I'll need you and our overbearing comical goblins. So, this is what we are going to do.” Witty Phantom then brings the group of monsters together to prepare for their mischievous deeds this evening.

 

(In one of the hallways of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm; A little later into the evening)

 

Within one of the hallways, we find little Card Ejector moving down the hallways and looking at the currently being repainted walls giving a perplexed look.

 

Card Ejector says, with a confused tone, “Wow. What is with these humans here and all of this white?” Soon after, Card Ejector stops at one door and she says, curiously, “What is this? This room has a weird aura.” Card Ejector then turns into a sphere of light and goes through cracks in the door. Soon enough, Card Ejector, in her light sphere form, goes through the other side of the door and she returns to her normal form. Card Ejector looks around the room, sees the renovated state that it is in, and Card Ejector says, with a shake of her head, “These humans need some form of originality.” Card Ejector then goes over to the bed to find our sleeping Moon Princess in her usual fashion with a bit of drool coming out of her mouth.

 

Serena says, with a goofy smile, “Oh, Darien . . . I couldn't . . . Well, okay . . . I'll have a little more . . .”

 

Card Ejector asks, perplexed, “Is this human? There is something weird about her. Like a weird aura. Maybe I should ask about that.” Card Ejector then creates a field around Serena's room where no sound can leave the room. Card Ejector then creates a bucket of ice water and she dumps it all over our Moon Princess. The reaction was obvious and instant.

 

Serena yells out, loudly, “YOW!!!” Serena literally jumps out of the bed, lands on the bed, and shakes the ice water off her. Serena asks, perplexed, “What the heck?!” Just then Serena hears giggles and looks to see Card Ejector giggle above her.

 

Card Ejector says, with a smile, “You, humans, are funny. You should see your face.”

 

Serena turns on the lights in her room, rubs her eyes, and she says, “I'm dreaming or I see a Duel Spirit in front of me.”

 

Card Ejector asks, perplexed, “Huh? You know about Duel Spirits?”

 

Serena says, with a perplexed expression, “Yeah. I see them all that time.”

 

Card Ejector says, stunned, “Oh, wow. I heard about these humans. They are supposed to be rare.” Card Ejector asks, curiously, “Actually, are you human?”

 

Serena says, nervously, “Yes . . . Actually, not exactly.”

 

Card Ejector replies, perplexed, “What do you mean `not exactly'?”

 

Serena replies, plainly, “Well, I'm actually the reincarnation of a princess from the Moon Kingdom.”

 

Card Ejector yells out, stunned, “Oh, wow! All of Spellcaster monsters have heard of you! Princess Serenity, right?”

 

Serena replies, nervously, “That's me. Could you keep it down? People are sleeping.”

 

Card Ejector says, with a cute smile, “Don't worry. I put up a magical field that prevents all sounds from leaving this room. So, you can as loud as you want.”

 

Serena replies, plainly, “Oh.”

 

Card Ejector says, with a giggle, “This is going to be great! I get the play with the famous Moon Princess of myth and legend.”

 

Serena asks, perplexed, “Play?” Just then Card Ejector waves her little wand and Serena yells out as she is lifted into the air. Soon after, she starts to float around as if she is in zero gravity in outer space and she says, drolly, “I had to ask.” Just then stuff that isn't firmly on the floor starts to rise into the air along with clothes in her drawls, portable lamps, her duel disk, dueling cards, and her Valkyrie Sailor transformation brooch. Serena yells out, stunned, “Oh no!”

 

Card Ejector then grabs her brooch and she says, awe-struck, “Ooh, that's pretty.”

 

Serena says, seriously, “Hey! Give that back!”

 

Card Ejector says, with a giggle, “Catch me if you can and you can get it back!” Soon after, Card Ejector starts to fly around the room and Serena tries to get after her, but all she succeeds to do is spin herself around in a clockwise motion for thirty rotations before she stops. Serena, who looks like she is about to throw her lunch, puts her hand over her mouth.

 

Serena thinks in her mind, mentally moaning, “Great! Something tells me that I'm going to have a night with a mischievous duel spirit!”

 

(Within another room inside of the Girls' Dorm; around the same time)

 

Serena isn't the only one have to duel with a mischievous Duel Spirit because we find ourselves in Amara's and Michelle's room within the Girls' Dorm being sealed off with the same type of sound suppression and some kind of sealing spell and the room is half flooded! On the meanwhile, Toon Mermaid keeps up popping up and down from the water while our two Outer Sailor Scouts, Michelle in a wet aquamarine blue-green nightgown and Amara, surprising, wearing her own orange colored nightgown, are using their mattress as a raft.

 

Amara says, with a snort, “I've heard of flooding inside of a room, but this is ridiculous!”

 

Michelle says, with shaking off her hair with an annoyed expression, “This Duel Spirit has a really bad sense of humor.”

 

Toon Mermaid pops up over the water and she says, with a giggle, “Oh, you humans are no fun.”

 

Amara says, with a serious tone, “Well, we are into your type of `fun'.

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a giggle, “That's too bad. This is how an Aqua Duel Monster like me has fun. We love the water and you humans are too `dry'.

 

Amara says, with a serious tone, “Well, I say that it is time to take you out of your shell!” Soon after, Amara takes her transformation pen.

 

“Uranus Twilight Eternal Power, Make-up!”

 

Soon after, Amara's nightgown is torn from her form and replaced with a sailor fuku and when the transformation is done, Twilight Eternal Sailor Uranus replaced Amara with Michelle on the makeshift `life raft', which was their mattress.

 

Michelle says, keeping her distance from Uranus' winds, “Amara, I think that we should end this quickly. It is getting cramped in here.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a slight nervous tone, “Sorry.” Soon after, Sailor Uranus leaps forward to attack Toon Mermaid.

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a slight giggle, “Not that easy, mysterious human.” Just then Sailor Uranus founds herself trapped inside of a large tear-shaped sphere of water.

 

Michelle says, shocked, “Amara!”

 

Sailor Uranus asks, perplexed, “What is this?” Sailor Uranus uses her powers to try to force the bubble with all her might, but she can't. Sailor Uranus then says, seriously, “Wait a minute! This is Tears of a Mermaid, isn't it?”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a giggle, “Yep! Since you used your mystical powers, I used that power to entrap you!”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a snort, “I should have known.”

 

Michelle says, with a serious tone, “This isn't fun. This is dangerous.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly smile, “It is not. Because you are not going to hurt and I'll be out of your hair in no time.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a snort, “Not soon enough for me.” Sailor Uranus thinks in her mind, “Now, how I am going to get out of this? This `tear' negates my magical Sailor Scout powers!”

 

(Within another room inside of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm; A short time soon after)

 

On the meanwhile, as Uranus and Michelle were pondering their situation of being `all wet' with Toon Mermaid, we find Toon Masked Sorcerer in another girls' room messing up her long hair into a wildly spiked fashion with various hair sprays and cement. He giggles as he puts some kind of cartoon alarm clock by the girls' headstand and quietly sneaks out of the room.

 

In the hallway, Toon Masked Sorcerer giggles at his work and he says, with a mischievous tone, “Ooh, that's three so far. Who's next?” Soon after, Toon Masked Sorcerer looks around and he giggles as he enters another room with his `Duel Spirit abilities'.

 

(Inside of yet another room within the Girls' Dorm; on the meanwhile)

 

Within Ami Mizuno's room inside of the currently under renovation Girls' Dorm, we find the three Dancing Fairies near Ami Mizuno's sleeping form and the three of them are whispering among themselves. They are starting to have second thoughts about doing this and playing pranks of humans.

 

One of the fairies says, nervously, “I don't know about this.”

 

The second of the fairies says, nervously, “You, too. I'm glad that I'm not the only one.”

 

The final of the fairies say, with a nervous tone, “I really don't know about this. Maybe we should stop.” However, as the three little fairy Duel Monsters continue to talk among themselves, they don't notice that Ami was starting to stir and slowly opening her eyes.

 

When they hear a yawn, the three fairies say in unison, “What was that?” The three fairies turn slowly to see a surprised Ami looking at them. They cry out in shock and in a panic, they quickly hide inside of clothes drawer.

 

Ami asks, perplexed and rubbing her eyes, “I am dreaming or did I just see a Dancing Fairy in front of me?” Ami gently pinches herself and finds that she isn't dreaming. In her ice-blue nightgown, Ami puts on a pair of slippers and she goes over to the drawer that the Dancing Fairy hid in. When she opens the drawer, she finds the Dancing Fairy cringing in fear. Ami says, reassuringly, “Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you. You can come out.” Soon enough, the Dancing Fairy come out of the drawer and Ami looks at them amazed. Ami then says, amazed, “You are the Duel Monster known as Dancing Fairy right?”

 

Dancing Fairy nods their heads and they say in unison, “That's right.”

 

Ami asks, perplexed, “What are you doing here? And why can I see you?”

 

Dancing Fairy says, shrugging their shoulders, “We don't know. We came through a portal that opened in our realm into your world. Guess since we came through that portal, you and other humans can see us easily now.”

 

Ami asks, curiously, “We?”

 

Dancing Fairy says, in unison, “We brought all of our friends into your realm. But some of them want to be mischievous and play.”

 

Ami says, nervously, “I'm not sure that I like the sound of that.”

 

Dancing Fairy says, with a plain tone, “They don't mean to hurt anyone. Our friends haven't had a chance in a long time to `play' with beings other than fellow Duel Monsters.”

 

Ami says, curiously, “I think I can understand.”

 

Dancing Fairy asks, curiously, “What's your name?”

 

Ami replies, with a kind smile, “My name is Ami Mizuno.”

 

Dancing Fairy says, with a kind smile, “It is nice to meet you, Ami.”

 

Ami asks Dancing Fairy, curiously, “How did that portal from your world open up?”

 

Dancing Fairy says, with a curious tone, “We're not sure, but we think that some kind of disruption in the balance of light and darkness did it.”

 

Ami thinks in her mind, concerned, “Oh, dear. It looks like it was bad as Yeshua said. Now, the realm of Duel Monsters has opened up and now, they can come into our world as real and solid beings and it is possible that their powers and abilities are real! Plus, who knows about us crossing over into their world too much! But first, I had better find out more about her friends.” Ami asks Dancing Fairy, “Dancing Fairy, can you tell more about your friends?”

 

Dancing Fairy says, with a nod, “Sure!” As Dancing Fairy explains about her friends from her realm, Ami can't help to worry what kind of mischief and chaos they could be causing now to have some `fun'.

 

(A short time later; Back with Uranus and Michelle)

 

Speaking of Dancing Fairy's friends, we find Toon Mermaid in Uranus' and Michelle's half-submerged bedroom and Sailor Uranus trying to figure out a way of the real life version of the Tears of a Mermaid trap card.

 

Michelle asks Uranus, concerned, “Are you okay, Amara?”

 

Sailor Uranus says, drolly, “As Rei would say: Just peachy.” Sailor Uranus thinks in her mind, drolly, “Now, I'm starting to feel what a `bubble girl' feels like.” But just then mystical energy goes all over the room and the room turns back to normal as if nothing happened with Michelle's clothes draw with Eternal Sailor Uranus standing on the floor just fine.

 

Michelle asks, perplexed, “What happened?”

 

Toon Mermaid, floating in the air, asks, perplexed, “What's going on?”

 

Just then a female child-like voice yells out, “That's not how you play, Toon Mermaid!” Just then mystical pink sparkles near the center of the room and in the air and with a loud firecracker-like `bang', Toon Dark Magician Girl appears.

 

Sailor Uranus asks, perplexed, “What the? Toon Dark Magician Girl?”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, with a bow and a giggle, “That's me!”

 

Toon Mermaid asks Toon Dark Magician Girl, “What are you doing here?”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, with a sly grin, “I'm here to show you how to perform `fun with humans' the right way. But first . . .” Just then Toon Dark Magician Girl waves her wand and mysterious pink colored dust flies from her wand at Uranus and Michelle causing both of them to get tried.

 

Michelle asks, getting woozy, “What's going on . . .?” Soon after, Michelle and Sailor Uranus fall into a deep sleep and Sailor Uranus turns back into Amara. Just then Toon Dark Magician Girl uses her magic to put Michelle and Amara back into bed and cover them up gently.

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl tells Toon Mermaid, scolding tone in her voice, “You don't go having fun by flooding someone's room. It's just plain mean.”

Toon Mermaid says, in a solemn tone, “Sorry.”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, with a mischievous smile, “Do you want me to show you the right way?”

 

Toon Mermaid gives a child-like giggle and she says, with a nod, “Yeah!”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, pointing to Amara and Michelle, “Don't worry about them. They will have a nice peaceful rest for the night.”

 

Toon Mermaid asks Toon Dark Magician Girl, curiously, “So, how do we have fun with humans?”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl gives a giggle like that of a little girl and she says, with a smile, “Let me show you.” Soon after, Toon Dark Magician Girl uses her magic to teleport the two of them away.

 

(A short time later into that night; Back with Serena)

 

Returning to our Moon Princess, we find her floating around in her room like she was in zero gravity in space with her arms crossed and wondering what she can do to catch the `little sprite' in her room namely Card Ejector.

 

Serena says, with a sigh, “Oh, man. I'm starting to know what food is like floating around in your stomach. It feels like I'm in outer space.” Serena then slaps herself in the forehead and she says, “Duh! If it is like outer space in my room, do what you do in space?” Serena then starts to `swim' around like she is in outer space and she starts to get some motion as Card Ejector is still zipping around in the air with her Valkyrie Sailor transformation brooch.

 

Card Ejector says, with a playful tone, “Catch me if you can!”

 

Serena thinks in her mind, with a moan, “Oh, man! Even through I can move a bit now, there is no way that I can catch up to her now and this might continue all night! If I don't catch this little sprite soon, I might not be able to stop this nonsense! I hope none of the others are having the same problems as me!”

 

(Inside of the hallways of the Girls' Dorm; on the meanwhile)

 

Within the hallways of the Girls' Dorm, we find Keiko Yukimura, in a black nightgown and her feet in a pair of slippers, is walking down the hallway to main foyer of the Girls' Dorm.

 

Keiko says, with a low voice, “I can't believe that I left that there. I really need to get it back. I just hope that I don't wake someone up.” Just then she hears a goofy sounding male voice in the hallway. Keiko asks, curiously, “Hello? Is someone there?” When Keiko doesn't get a reply, she continues to walk forward, but then she hears the goofy sounding male voice and she calls out, “Hello? Yusuke, is that you? I hope that this isn't a prank or you are so dead.” When Keiko doesn't hear a reply, she continues to walk on, but then she starts to fill a chill in the air and she shivers at all. Keiko continues to walk to the foyer and she says, lowly, “What is with this cold? I don't think that Serena damaged the air conditioning when she took back this dorm, so, what's going on here?” Keiko then thinks she hears a noise behind her and she whips her head around to see none there. Keiko says, with a sigh, “Oh, man. I must be seeing . . .” However, Keiko doesn't get to finish when she is face to face with Toon Masked Sorcerer and he gives a mixture of a goofy/scary face that normally wouldn't scare anymore, but since it is dark and Keiko was surprised, she yells out in fright as she falls down to the floor on her bottom and a noise like someone `passing wind' is heard. Keiko blushes in embarrassment, but she then feels something on her bottom. She rises to her feet and looks where she fell at to find a whoopee cushion where she fell down on her bottom.

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer yells out, with a laugh, “Ha! Ha! I can't believe that you humans would fall for such tricks!”

 

Keiko says, with an annoyed tone, “That wasn't nice!” Keiko then says, lowly, “I can't believe that I'm talking to a Duel Monster.”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a sly grin, “That's right! Toon Masked Sorcerer at your service!”

 

Keiko says, seriously, “What are you doing here?”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a sly smile, “Having some fun with you humans.”

 

Keiko states, with a snort, “You think that playing pranks on us is fun?”

 

Toon Masked Sorcerer says, with a goofy giggle, “Yep! Yep! Yep! And I've got a whole island of them! See ya!” Immediately, Toon Masked Sorcerer flies off into the distance to cause more mischief.

 

Keiko yells out, pleading, “Wait!”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “Keiko!” Immediately, Keiko turns to see Kagome, in her black and blue female Obelisk Blue uniform, Inuyasha, and Melody running down the hall.

 

Keiko asks, surprised, “Kagome? What are you doing up?”

 

Kagome says, seriously, “Inuyasha sensed some `weird vibes' and I started to feel them too.”

 

Keiko says, with a serious tone, “Well, believe it or not, it was caused by real-life Duel Monsters.”

 

Kagome yells out, shocked, “What?”

 

Melody asks, perplexed, “Duel what?”

 

Inuyasha tells Melody, “I'll explain later, Melody.”

 

Keiko says, picking up the whoopee cushion from the floor, “Yeah. And there seems to be quite a mischief one. It was a Toon Masked Sorcerer and he spooked me into falling onto this.”

 

Kagome says, with an annoyed tone, “That's childish!”

 

Keiko says, with a plain tone, “But it is a cartoon monster and cartoons do this sort of thing.”

 

Kagome says, with a nod, “Good point, Keiko. We had better get after him before he starts more trouble.” Just dozens of screams from nearby rooms in the hallway echo out.

 

Keiko says, with a nervous tone, “Something tells me that it is too late from that.”

 

Kagome says, with a sigh, “Yep.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a snort, “A prankster, huh? Something tells me that he is just as bad as that fox.” Immediately, Inuyasha runs in the direction that Toon Masked Sorcerer went and Kagome, Keiko, and Melody went after him.

 

Kagome yells out, worriedly, “Inuyasha, wait up!” Soon enough, the group make into the foyer of the Girls' Dorm and the four of them don't see any trace of Toon Masked Sorcerer.

 

Keiko asks, perplexed, “Where did he go?”

 

Melody says, sniffing around, “I smell that creep and he has company.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a nod, “Melody's right. He isn't alone.”

 

Just then a cartoon-like deep male voice calls out, “That's right!” Everyone looks to see a group of Toon Goblin Attack Force standing in front of the main door.

 

Inuyasha says, with a sly smirk, “And what are you supposed to be?”

 

Kagome says, with a curious quirk, “They are Toon Goblin Attack Force.”

 

Keiko asks, perplexed, “What is with all the Duel Spirits coming here?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sly smile, “I don't know, but these little goofballs are going to give me some answers.” Inuyasha then leaps forward to take on the Goblin Attack Force.

 

Kagome yells out, worriedly, “Inuyasha, wait!” However, it is too late because when Inuyasha landed in front of the Toon Goblin Attack Force, he yelps as he drops into a large pit hidden by a rag and into a lot of sticky green goop.

 

Inuyasha yells out, “What in the heck is this garbage?!” Inuyasha tries to pull himself out of the goop, but the more he struggles, the more he gets stuck. On the meanwhile, Keiko, Kagome, and Melody get down to the edge of the pit.

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, “Are you okay?”

 

Melody states, with an annoyed tone, “He is stuck in a large pit of goop. How do you think he's doing?”

 

Just then a deep male voice calls out, “Hello, ladies.” Just then Keiko, Kagome, and Melody turn to see Witty Phantom in front of them.

 

Keiko asks, perplexed, “Witty Phantom?”

 

Melody asks, curiously, “Another friend of yours?”

 

Keiko says, with a plain tone, “Another Duel Monster, Melody.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a perplexed tone, “Curious. You seem human, but I sense something else as well.”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “I'm not human, pal. I'm a hanyou.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a curious tone, “A hanyou? I thought that half-demons vanished along with demons centuries ago.”

 

Melody says, with a cocky smile, “I guess that you are wrong.”

 

Kagome says, with a serious tone, “What do you think that we are doing?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly smile, “What do you think my dear? We are having some `fun' with you humans.”

 

Keiko says, with an annoyed tone, “You think that terrorizing humans with your pranks is `fun'? You think that making fun of others is funny.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly smile pointing behind them, “No. That is.” The girls turn behind them only to see a Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon and it shakes its head as it has its mouth open wide. Keiko and Kagome yelp out and leap away in shock only to fall into the same pile of goop that Inuyasha is stuck in.

 

Witty Phantom, Toon Goblin Attack Force, and Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon leap into the sky and Witty Phantom says, with a sly grin, “Farewell, ladies. Places to go and people to freak out.” Witty Phantom and the two Toon monsters then vanish like spirits do.

 

Kagome says, disgusted, “Gross! I feel like I'm a pool of snot!”

 

Keiko says, with a nod, “No kidding, girlfriend!”

 

Kagome asks, perplexed, “What do we do now?”

 

Inuyasha says, with his usual tone, “You got me!”

 

Keiko thinks in her mind, “I hope that the others aren't having as much problems as we are!”

 

(Inside of a mysterious `dream realm'; On the meanwhile)

 

Around this time, we find Zane, in his Hell Kaiser clothes, and Hikari, in her black and blue Obelisk Blue uniform, look around where we are and Zane gains a dark emotionless expression. They had found out that the `Eye of Horus' spells put on them have been broken.

 

Zane asks Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Do you know where we are Kari?”

 

Hikari asks Zane, with a perplexed tone, “Not really?”

 

Just then a voice calls out, “We are the ones that brought you here.” Zane and Hikari look to see Witch of the Black Forest, Crystal Seer, Dark Red Enchanter, Miracle Flipper, and Lightsworn Summoner right in front of them.

 

Hikari asks, perplexed, “Duel Spirits?”

 

Miracle Flipper says, with a kind smile, “Yep! That's us!”

 

Zane replies, with a dark plain tone, “So, you are the one that released the magic spells over us.”

 

Crystal Seer says, with a nod, “Yes. It was us.”

 

Dark Red Enchanter asks, curiously, “Why were you entranced by this magic?”

 

Hikari replies, a bit nervously, “Well . . .” Soon after, Zane and Hikari explain their stories and when they were done, the Duel Spirits nod their heads in unison.

 

Lightsworn Summoner says, with a sigh, “You humans and your problems with romance and relationships.”

 

Witch of the Black Forest says, with a nod, “I agree.”

 

Crystal Seer asks Zane, “Zane, may I ask you something?”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain huff, “What?”

 

Crystal Seer tells Zane, “When you become this `Hell Kaiser' persona, you gained all the glory, all the money, and all the power, but did you enjoy dueling like you used to?”

 

Zane asks, with a dark annoyed tone, “What kind of question is that? What is the point of dueling if you don't win?” Hikari gives a solemn groan when she hears that.

 

Crystal Seer says, creating screens made of smoke, “Why don't you look at these?” Soon after, Zane looks to witness his duels as his `old self' and as new `darker state' and as he continues to look, his memories of his dueling career kept coming back and Zane's expression changes from his dark serious self to a more dark concerned expression. When the images fade away, Crystal Seer says, with a plain tone, “I think you have gotten what you mean.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “I think I do. I had the money, the glory, and fame, but the victories never `pleased' me like they used to. Before all of this, with duels like with Jaden, they were far more enjoyable and my excitement for duels grew.”

 

Witch of the Black Forest asks, with a smile, “And why is that?”

 

Zane says, with a dark serious tone, “Because . . . because they were challenging . . . because they pushed me to my limits . . . and even through I tied with Jaden during my second duel with him. It was enjoyable because I pushed myself to my limits.”

 

Lightsworn Summoner tells Zane, “That's right, Zane. However, you should know better than anyone that no one is invincible and sooner or later, everyone suffers a loss. However, you won so many times that you couldn't accept defeat.”

 

Zane says, with a nod and a dark plain tone, “No kidding. And when I lost to Phoenix, I couldn't believe that I lost. I just couldn't accept it and then I went downhill. And then I found Shroud and he forced me to duel for my life.”

 

Witch of the Black Forest says, with a nod, “That's right. And you became focused on your desire to win. You need to know that even the best can lose sometimes, but since you never truly lost before Aster Phoenix, you couldn't handle it. Your dueling philosophy was indeed flawed, but you found the wrong solution into it. By focusing on just on the winning and glory, you lost parts of your philosophy that were important.”

 

Hikari says, putting her hand on one of Zane's hands, “It is true that victory is important, at times, but it isn't as important as the challenge of the duel and learning new things.” Zane looks at Hikari and she says, with a nod, “Plus, everyone, even the best loses sometimes. Yugi Moto had lost to a few people back in his day or didn't know that.”

 

Zane's eyes widen and he says, with a dark plain tone, “I see. You do have a point. After I came back from the Underground tournaments, I dueled with the intention of winning and nothing more. Yugi Moto lost a few duels even in his time, but he won in rematches and came back even stronger from my studies at the Academy. Maybe . . . No, you truly have a point.” Zane then closes his eyes and he says, with a dark sly chuckle, “It takes Duel Monsters to make me see that I went from one flawed philosophy to the next.” When Zane opens his eyes, he says, with a dark sly grin, “Out of all of us, I think that Jaden Yuki has one of the best dueling philosophies even it is so simple.”

 

Crystal Seer says, with a plain tone, “The simplest things always prove to be the best sometimes.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “Yes, you are right.”

 

Hikari asks, with a curious tone, “Zane?”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Hikari, I think that it is time that I start over, again. I will still duel to win, but this time, I'll be changing my way of dueling for a bit. This time, I plan to enjoy my duel with every single bit.”

 

Hikari says, with a smile, “Well, I'm glad that you saw the error of your ways.”

 

Zane tells Hikari, with a dark sly tone, “Well, you helped me see that.” Zane tells Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Hikari, sorry about the whole . . . you know.”

 

Hikari says, with a sly smile, “I know. But I got you back for that. And next time that you try that, I'll make sure that you don't have kids.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly smile and dark loving tone, “I wouldn't have it any other way.”

 

Hikari asks Zane, curiously, “Maybe you should try not to use that `ancient Egyptian' stuff anymore?”

 

Zane says, with a dark serious tone, “Personally, I want it out of my head.”

 

Hikari asks Crystal Seer, “You know, I've been thinking. Since you are a Duel Monster and a magician-like monster, you have special mystical powers. Can you get rid of the knowledge of these `Ancient Egyptian Hypnosis techniques' from our minds?”

 

Crystal Seer says, with a nod, “We can. But only if you are willing to wipe this knowledge from your minds permanently.”

 

Zane says, with a dark serious tone, “If you don't mind, get rid of it now. The less that I have this in my head, the better.”

 

Crystal Seer says, while glowing, “As you wish.”

 

Zane asks Hikari, with a dark plain tone, “Hey, Kari, you don't mind about trying to start all over?”

 

Hikari tells Zane, lovingly, “I wouldn't have it any other way.” Soon after, the two of them share a passionate and loving kiss as the two are covered in Crystal Seer's glow as the scene fades away.

 

(Back to our Moon Princess; A short time later)

 

Returning to Serena, we find her `swimming' in her currently zero gravity-like environment as she tries to get her hands on Card Ejector, who has taken her brooch and flying around the room, but Serena can't `swim' very fast. However, Card Ejector, feeling confident, slows down and plays around with Serena's brooch.

 

Serena yells out, annoyed, “Hey, you! Don't play with that! That's not a toy!”

 

Card Ejector says, with a sly smile and child-like giggle, “Well, if you want it back, you are going to need to catch me!”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, “With pleasure!” Card Ejector looks only to have Sailor Vesta and Sailor Juno grab her while Sailor Pallas to grab Serena's brooch.

 

Sailor Pallas says, waving her fingers, “Naughty. Naughty. Didn't you mommy tell you not to take things that don't belong to you?” Sailor Pallas goes over to Serena and gives her the brooch.

 

Serena says, with a smile, “Thank you, Sailor Pallas.”

 

Sailor Pallas says, with a smile, “No problem, Serena-sama.”

 

Serena says, with a kind smile, “Just call me, Serena, okay.”

 

Sailor Pallas says, with a smile, “Okay!”

 

Serena asks, curiously, “What are you doing here?”

 

Sailor Vesta says, with a serious tone, “Ceres and your daughter since some mischief were up! There have been more `prank attacks' at the Slifer Red and the main building of Duel Academy by more mischievous Duel Spirits like this one.”

 

Serena says, stunned, “Whoa!”

 

Sailor Juno says, with a sly smile, “Okay, you! It is time for you to go home!”

 

Card Ejector says, with a pout, “No! No! No! I don't want to go home! I want to have fun!” Just then Card Ejector vanishes from the room and everything returns to normal, which, unfortunately, causes everything to crash down to the ground including Serena, who painful lands on her bottom.

 

The three members of the Sailor Quartet go down and Sailor Vesta asks, concerned, “Hey! Are you okay?”

 

Serena says, rubbing her back and bottom gently, “Yeah. I'll be fine. It will take more than a painful landing to keep me down.”

 

Sailor Pallas says, with a smile, “You have plenty of experience with them.”

 

Serena says, drolly, “Don't remind me.” Serena fully gets back on her feet and she tells the Sailor Quartet, “I need for you to meet up with Sailor Ceres and Rini. I'll get dressed and join you as soon as possible. We need to address this problem quickly.”

 

The three Sailor Quartet girls nod their heads in unison and they say in unison, “Right.” Soon after, the three members of the Sailor Quartet use Sailor Teleport to teleport away.

 

Serena says, going over to her fallen clothes to find her black and blue female Obelisk Blue uniform, “What a mess. Well, if we don't stop those Duel Spirits, this mess will be the least of our worries.” Serena would learn how much of a problem that they will be soon enough.

 

(The following morning; Outside of the Girls' Dorm)

 

Outside of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm, we find our heroes and heroines, male and female, assembled together in front of the currently being renovated Girls' Dorm. We find Inuyasha, Keiko, and Kagome looking over each other with disgusted looks on their faces.

 

Inuyasha says, with a snarl, “If I get my hands on those pranksters, they will really know what it means to get me mad.”

 

Kagome tells Inuyasha, with a plain tone, “Easy, Inuyasha. Those little Duel Spirits just want to get you mad so you will fall into their pranks, again.”

 

Yusuke asks Keiko, concerned, “Are you okay, Keiko?”

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “Just majorly grossed out, Yusuke.”

 

Jasmine says, with a snarl, “Those little prankster have caused chaos everywhere in the dorm.”

 

Lita says, with a nod, “No joke. There are major hair disasters, major `face paints', and so much more practice jokes that plenty of the girls are freaked out.”

 

Ami says, with a blush on her cheeks, “And there are some cases that are . . . not to be spoken of.”

 

Syrus says, with a nod, “I get you, Ami.”

 

Hotaru asks, concerned, “What are we going to do?”

 

Amara says, with a serious tone, “Well, we find these rouge Duel Spirits and we stop them.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Easier said than done. What are you going to do? Scold them? They are Duel Spirits after all. They are not easily capture or easily contained.”

 

Hikari says, with a nod, “Zane does have a point, everyone.”

 

Kurama says, with a nod, “Yes, we have fought demons and monsters before, but not real-life Duel Monsters in a sense. These are intelligence monsters and they are not as easily taken care of.”

 

Shippo asks, curiously, “So, what do we do?”

 

Serena says, with a smile, “Well, there are plenty of them that are acting like pranksters. Well, maybe we should think like them.”

 

Rei asks, drolly, “And how do you do that?”

 

Serena says, pointing to the Sailor Quartet and Rini, “Well, that's where they come in. These `prankster Duel Spirits' are acting a lot like kids and plenty of them are `Toon' Monsters right? Well, many young kids like cartoon and they act a lot like kids.”

 

Mina says, with an excited smile, “So, we need kids to beat them, right?”

 

Serena says, with a smile, “That's the plan!”

 

Shippo says, with a smile, “I can help out! I can figure out what those pranksters are up to!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “Obviously, fox. You are one yourself.” Inuyasha gives a snort at remembering all of the pranks and tricks that Shippo did on him.

 

Miroku says, with a smile, “Well, I've got to say that's a good point that Inuyasha has made.”

 

Shippo says, with a sly grin, “Yeah. Miracles can happen.”

 

Inuyasha yells out, annoyed, “Why you little brat?! If you have forgotten, the beads around my neck are gone and I'm immune to priestess spells now! I love Kagome, but that doesn't mean I won't beat you to the ground!”

 

Shippo runs behind Kagome and Kagome tells Inuyasha, in a scolding tone, “Inuyasha, we don't have time for this! We need to find those Duel Spirits or this whole island will go into chaos.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a nod, “Yeah! You're right! Plus, I want to pay them back for that rotten trick!”

 

Rini asks Serena, “So, what should we do?”

 

Tyranno asks Jaden, with a plain tone, “Any ideas, Sarge?”

 

Alexis says, with a serious tone, “Simple. We split up and try to find any traces of them.”

 

Atticus asks, curiously, “Okay, dude, what happens when we find them?”

 

Jaden says, shrugging his shoulders, “Search me.”

 

Chazz says, rolling his eyes and in his usual tone, “Simple, Slacker. You improvise.”

 

Ami says, with a smile, “I might have someone that could help.” Just then Dancing Fairy appears from behind Ami and everyone, minus Hiei, gives a jump in shock.

 

Mina says, with a smile, “So cute!”

 

Michelle asks, curiously, “Isn't that Dancing Fairy?”

 

Syrus says, with a nod, “Yep! I've seen that card before.”

 

Ami says, with a nod, “They are friends of our little pranksters, but they don't like what they are doing. They'll help us find them and stop their antics.”

 

Amara says, with a plain tone, “That's good to know.”

 

Trista says, with a plain tone, “However, we should think seriously about this matter. Since Duel Spirits are able to leave their realm and come into this world, it means that the balance of life is becoming more unstable.”

 

Kurama says, with a nod, “The Guardian of Time has a point. I can sense the imbalance is just as terrible as ever.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “It is obvious to see that we need to defeat the Light of Destruction before everything can return to normal.”

 

Atticus says, with a serious tone, “With the finals coming closer, we are going to see who will fight who.”

 

Syrus says, with a nod, “Yeah. However, we need to get to work and find those Duel Spirits before they turn Duel Academy into their own playground.”

 

Hotaru says, with a nod, “Good idea, Syrus-chan.”

 

Tyranno says, with a sly grin, “Our little Private is growing up.”

 

Syrus says, annoyed, “Cut it out Hassleberry.” However, Zane gives a dark sly smile at Syrus before returning to a dark plain expression.

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “Syi's right. Let's get to work everyone.” Soon enough, our heroes and heroines start to discuss how to divide themselves up to look for those `prankster' Duel Spirits.

 

(Elsewhere on Academy Island; Sometime later that morning)

 

In another area of Duel Academy, we find an assembly of Card Ejector, Witty Phantom, Toon Mermaid, Toon Dark Magician Girl, Toon Goblin Attack Force, Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon, and Toon Gemini Elf in a small clearing near a larger clearing in the woods.

 

Witty Phantom bows to Toon Dark Magician Girl and he says, with a sly smile, “It is an honor to meet you, Toon Dark Magician Girl. Your pranks and antics are well known to me.”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl gives a giggle and she replies, “Thank you.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a sly grin, “Ooh, yes. She is really something. I really like that sneezing and knocking on door. Those confused and perplexed looks on those humans were priceless.”

 

Toon Goblin Attack Force asks, perplexed, “Duh! Where are Dancing Fairies?”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a perplexed tone, “I'm not sure. She couldn't have gotten lost.”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a reassuring tone, “Don't worry. Those little sprites are the most careful monsters that I ever known. They won't get caught so easily.”

 

Card Ejector says, worriedly, “She would be lucky. Those weird little girls in those mini-skirts had special powers that made me unable to sense them and they weren't affected by my magic.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a smile, “Magical Girls, huh? This sounds interesting.”

 

Toon Mermaid asks, curiously, “What do you mean?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a smile, “Human girls with the ability to get through Card Ejector's magic make it sound like that they are not easily tricked or prank by someone. I like getting some laughs, but I like a `friendly challenge' as well.”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, with a smile, “They sound like fun if they are magical like me.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a smile, “Yep. And let us make this into a contest.”

 

Toon Mermaid asks, curiously, “Contest?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a sly grin, “The Duel Monster that pranks those magical girls the best wins this contest. And to make things fair, we will split up into teams. I'll take my friends, Toon Goblin Attack Force, and my little `pet', Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon.” Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon nods his head in cartoon-like fashion and Witty Phantom states, with a smile, “Plus, Armor Breaker will work with me. How about Card Ejector, Toon Mermaid, and Toon Dark Magician Girl form a team of their own?”

 

Card Ejector says, with a smile, “Ooh, sounds like fun.”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl asks, curiously, “What about Toon Gemini Elf?”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a smile, “They are two girls after all. It makes them two monsters in one.”

 

Both Toon Gemini Elf, the blond and brown haired one, say in unison, “Yeah!”

 

Witty Phantom asks, curiously, “So, what do you say?”

 

Toon Dark Magician Girl says, with a nod, “Okay!”

 

Toon Mermaid says, with a nod, “Sounds fun.”

 

Toon Gemini Elf says, with a nod and seductive tones, “Okay!”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a nod, “Okay, let's head off then!” Soon after, the Duel Spirits go there separate ways to plan for the ideas for their little `pranking contest'.

 

(A short time later; on another part of Academy Island)

 

At the edge of another clearing in the forest areas of Duel Academy, we find Mina and Lita walking around searching around for any signs of that prankster Duel Spirits and trying to find them before they start up more trouble again.

 

Mina asks Lita, “Do you think that we should transform and look for them?”

 

Lita says, with a plain tone, “Remember what Serena and the others told us, Mina. We're not sure about how they will react.”

 

Mina asks, with a curious tone, “What? They are just Toon Monsters. What's to worry about?”

 

Lita says, with a slight shake of her head, “Mina.”

 

Mina says, with a nod, “Okay! Okay!” Mina says, with a smile, “But you have got to admit that it is so cool an idea to see a real-like Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon. I think that it is really cute.”

 

Lita says, with a roll of her eyes, “I'm not so sure. I keep wondering what Pegasus was thinking creating those monsters, but then again, the Toon Dark Magician Girl and Toon Mermaid are kind of cute.”

 

Mina says, with a nod, “I can't believe that they would do harm!”

 

Lita says, with a serious tone, “Well, maybe they don't think that they are doing harm, Mina. They are Toon Monsters after all. I think that they are thinking that they are having fun and it makes them dangerous.”

 

Mina asks, curiously, “Why would they be so dangerous?”

 

Lita tells Mina, with a plain tone, “They are Toon Monsters, Mina. They are like cartoons and plus, they have never been out of their world before. They're not here to do harm, but we had better be careful of them.”

 

Mina says, with a nod, “Okay! We just got to find them and not try to hurt them.”

 

Lita says, with a plain tone, “And make sure that they don't hurt us. They might think that they are just harmlessly pranking us Mina.”

 

Mina says, nodding her head in agreement, “Good point, Lita-chan. Let's go.” Soon after, Mina and Lita continue to look for any signs of the Duel Spirits not knowing that they are being watched by the Toon Gemini Elf.

 

The blond one whispers to the brown haired one, “Ooh, they are cuties, aren't they? Well, for humans, anyway.”

 

The brown haired one says, seductively, “Yeah. We like to have fun and prank humans like we did at their `home', but we can have fun with them that's enjoyable for both of us in the end.”

 

The blond one whispers to her brown haired sister, “Shall we?”

 

The brown haired one says, with a nod, “Let's.” The Toon Gemini Elves give mischievous giggles as they race off to get ahead of the two Sailor Scouts to play their `games' with them.

 

(Elsewhere; on the meanwhile)

 

In another area of Duel Academy, we find Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara, Melody, Inuyasha, and Kagome walking through the woods with Melody keeping a close eye on Inuyasha and Kagome.

 

Miroku asks Sango, “It is kind of surprise to find out about Inuyasha's sister, huh?”

 

Sango says, with a nod, “Yes, it is.”

 

Shippo asks Inuyasha, curiously, “Why didn't you tell us about your sister, Inuyasha?”

 

Inuyasha replies, plainly, “Because you never asked.”

 

Miroku says, with a curious tone, “She does have plenty in common with you so it is obvious that she is your sister.”

 

Melody asks, with a snarl, “And what is that mean monk?”

 

Sango tells Melody, “Miroku didn't mean anything by it.”

 

Kagome says, with a plain tone, “However, I'm not sure about him and half-demon girls, but you should keep your eyes on him.”

 

Melody asks, with an annoyed tone, “Why should I listen to you?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “Because Miroku is a good ally, as much I hate to admit it, but he is a major leech. Hit on pretty girls to ask them to bare his child.”

 

Melody then glares at Miroku seriously and she states, with a serious tone, “Oh, really?”

 

Miroku says, with a sly nervous smile, “Your brother does have a tendency to . . . exaggerate a bit.”

 

Sango says, with a plain tone, “In this case, Inuyasha is right on the money.”

 

Shippo says, with a nod, “Yep!”

 

Miroku says, with a stunned tone, “Sango! Shippo!”

 

Melody says, with a snort, “Monks . . . sometimes they are just as bad as mikos.”

 

Sango asks, perplexed, “Is that why you've got something against Kagome? Just because she is a priestess?”

 

Melody says, with a snarl, “No damn kidding! To me, she is nothing, but trash just like that wench that's her previous incarnation! She caught me off-guard with that spell of hers.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “Melody has a major thing against priestess. Show her on and if I'm not there to restrain here, well, you get the idea.”

 

Kagome asks, curiously, “Did she and Kikyo fight before?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a nod, “Big time!”

 

Sango says, with a serious tone, “And plus, she is the reincarnation of the one who gave you that Millennium Pendant namely your sister.”

 

Shippo says, with a plain tone, “It seems like everything is leading back to Egypt and the Silver Millennium.”

 

Kagome says, with a sigh, “Please don't go into any `destiny' bit, Shippo.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a nod, “Yeah. We had quite enough of that!”

 

Miroku says, with a serious tone, “Anyway, let's get back to the task at hand and find those pranksters.”

 

Just then a gruff cartoon voice calls out, “You called?” Everyone looks to the source of the voice to see Toon Goblin Attack Force in front of them.

 

Melody asks, scratching her head, “And they are supposed to be a threat?”

 

Sango says, with a plain tone, “They look more ridiculous to me.”

 

Kagome says, with a serious tone, “That's because they are Toon monsters. Version of regular Duel Monsters turned into cartoon-like forms which make them look goofy and ridiculous, but they are no joke!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Well, I just want to really give them a piece of my fist!”

 

Inuyasha then runs forward and Kagome calls out, worriedly, “Inuyasha, wait!” However, it is too late as Inuyasha trips a trip wire and dozens of water balloons or what look like water balloons launch from the bushes and slam into him, but when they explode, a multi-colored fluffy sticky substance bids covers Inuyasha from head to toe and binds him to the ground he is on.

 

Inuyasha calls out, struggling to get free, “Hey! I can't . . . I can't move!” Toon Goblin Attack Force giggles and laughs at Inuyasha before running off into the woods.

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “Okay! No one does that to my brother and gets away with it!” Immediately, Melody leaps into the woods after the Goblins.

 

Sango calls out, stunned, “Melody!”

 

Shippo tells Inuyasha, “Man! She is just like you!”

 

Inuyasha says, annoyed, “Stuff it, fox! And get me out of here!” Kagome comes up, pulls out part of the sticky substance, and licks it causing her to find out that this is cotton candy.

 

Kagome says, stunned, “Cotton Candy?”

 

Miroku asks Kagome, “What's Cotton Candy?”

 

Inuyasha says, seriously, “Cotton Candy is some kind of weird treat that they made in this time. It looks like fluffy cotton, but it is pure sweets. I can't believe that they used this stuff to stop me like this!”

 

Sango says, with a sigh, “It is kind of embarrassing, Inuyasha.”

 

Inuyasha says, annoyed tone in his voice, “Don't remind me!” Inuyasha says, getting an idea, “Wait! If this stuff is that Cotton Candy food that people eat . . .” Inuyasha grabs onto some of the Cotton Candy, rips it out, and he eats it. Inuyasha says, licking his lips, “Not bad. Well, it isn't going to be the hardest escape.” Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Well, what are you waiting for? Take some of this stuff and eat!”

 

Shippo says, after sniffing the Cotton Candy, “Mmm, with pleasure!” Shippo licks his lips and bites into the sticky Cotton Candy.

 

Inuyasha calls out, seriously, “Hey! Hey! Watch it! Watch where are you are biting!”

 

Kagome tells Sango, “You and Miroku get after Melody. Shippo and I will stay here and get Inuyasha out of this stuff.”

 

Shippo says, with a smile on his face, “Yeah! It is a difficult job, but someone has got to do it!”

 

Kirara transforms into her full demon cat form, Miroku and Sango get on her back, and Sango says, with a nod, “Right! We'll try to catch up, but if she is anything like her brother in speed and agility, it won't be easy!”

 

Kagome says, with a nod, “Good luck.” Immediately, Sango and Miroku, riding on Kirara, take off after Melody. Kagome rips off some Cotton Candy and she tells Inuyasha, “This is going to be easy.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a snort, “What are you complaining about? You are getting some food that people of your time like to eat so much.”

 

Shippo says, with a wide grin, “No kidding!” Shippo then bites into the fluffy Cotton Candy and starts eating it right away.

 

Inuyasha yells out, annoyed, “I said watch where you are biting, fox!”

 

Kagome thinks in her mind, with a shrug, “Well, this is the most unusual trap that I've ever seen and getting Inuyasha out won't be too easy.” Kagome then starts to eat the Cotton Candy to get Inuyasha unbound.

 

(In another area of Academy Island; around this same time)

 

In yet another part of Academy Island, we find Eternal Twilight Sailor Mercury, Eternal Twilight Sailor Mars, Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse, Valkyrie Sailor Moon, Eternal Twilight Sailor Mini-Moon, Eternal Sailor Ceres, Eternal Sailor Pallas, and Tuxedo Mask walking across another part of the island and searching for any signs of the mischievous Duel Spirits.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse asks, curiously, “Are there any signs of them?”

 

After walking a few feet, Sailor Mars' eyes grow wide and she says, pointing in one direction, “If you want a sign, there it is.” When the group looks at the source, they are surprised to see three Ra Yellow boys and they are hanging up on trees by a rope that have a noose wrapped around their right ankle.

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with an annoyed tone, “Talk about your `bad' senses of humor.” When the group comes close to them, they hold their noses from a nasty stink coming from them.

 

Sailor Mini-Moon asks, perplexed, “What is that?”

 

Sailor Ceres says, plainly, “That would be stink bombs. We used them sometimes ourselves . . . you know back THEN?”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a nod, “We gotcha.”

 

Sailor Pallas says, holding her nose, “Boy, those Duel Spirits are quite nasty. Pallas and Sailor Quartet stopped using stink bombs because of bad stink.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse says, holding her nose, “We can see . . . or I should say, smell why.”

 

One of the Ra Yellow boys yell out, annoyed, “Can you get us down now? We had to smell this rotten stink that they had on us for awhile.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, with a frantic nod, “Okay! Okay! Hold your horses!”

 

Sailor Mars asks, curiously, “What do we do when we get them down?”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon says, with a nod, “We can't bring them back to the dorms.”

 

Sailor Mercury has her scanner activated and she says, “I can scan the chemical that they used and create one that will get rid of their . . . new odor.”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Eclipse asks, curiously, “Well, who is going to get them down?”

 

Tuxedo Mask says, plainly, “Allow me.” Tuxedo Mask throws three roses that cut the roses that bind the boys to the tree and they yell as they fall down, but the girls are there to catch them and gently put them on the ground.

 

The Ra Yellow boy that spoke up says, “Thanks, but can you get this stink off us?! Please!”

 

Valkyrie Sailor Moon says, struggling not to gag, “We'll . . . try!”

 

Sailor Mini-Moon says, with a plain tone, “It is hard to believe that Duel Spirits like this are going to send the whole island into chaos.”

 

Sailor Mercury says, with a logical tone, “If pranks like this continue, there are lots of consequences that could and will happen if we don't stop them.”

 

Sailor Mars says, seriously, “Can we get them out of here already?! No offense, boys, but that stink is really getting to me.”

 

Another Ra Yellow boy says, plainly while holding his nose, “You aren't the only one. I'm struggling not to faint.”

 

Sailor Mars says, plainly, “No joke. I don't blame you.” Soon after, the group escorts the `stink bombed' students back to the dorms to get the stink off them.

 

(Joining another group on Academy Island; A brief time soon after)

 

On the meanwhile, we find Jaden, Alexis, Syrus, Tyranno, Chazz, Jasmine, Mindy, Zane, Yusuke, Hikari, Keiko, Kuwabara, Kurama, VesVes, and JunJun assembled together as they `clean up' another `mess' the mischievous Duel Spirits made. It is in the form students that got blasted with water balloons filled with dye that stained their bodies and clothes as well as hit with whipped cream pies all over the place. Thankfully, Kurama's skills with plants created a counter dye that washes off the effects of the dye.

 

Chazz asks, with an annoyed tone, “Why are we doing this again? It isn't our fault. Why should we clean up those little Duel Spirits' messes?”

 

Jasmine says, with a serious glare and tone, “Because it is the right thing to do Chazz!”

 

Alexis tells Jasmine, with a plain tone, “Easy, Jaz.”

 

VesVes says, with a plain tone, “I've got to say that they know the classic kid pranks.”

 

JunJun states, with a serious tone, “They're cartoon monsters, VesVes. What did you expect for them to know?”

 

Syrus says, with an annoyed tone, “What is their problem? They are just causing more headaches around here.”

 

Tyranno says, with a plain tone, “They're cartoons, soldier. They just love to try to make a joke.”

 

Mindy says, rolling her eyes, “Bad jokes, Hassleberry.”

 

Hikari says, with a nod, “I hear you.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Personally, it is hard for me to believe that this would be a major problem, but we aren't dealing with ordinary pranksters.”

 

Keiko says, with a nod, “And sooner or later, they are going to cause a `prank' that could people in danger even through they won't know it.”

 

Kurama says, with a nod, “And that's why we need to stop them.”

 

Just then a voice booms, “If you can!” The group looks towards the source of the voice only to have a cream pie to land on Kuwabara's face. Yusuke struggles not to laugh and maintain a straight face while looks up and sees Card Ejector up in the sky.

 

Keiko says, seriously, “That's Card Ejector!”

 

Hikari asks, curiously, “The same one that Serena had a problem with last night?” Just then Card Ejector waves her wand and the ground starts to shake around them, but while nearly all of the group leap out of the way, Kuwabara, who had finished getting cream pie out of his eyes, only looks down to see a water geyser come out of the ground from his feet and eject him high into the air.

 

JunJun states, with a plain tone, “THAT answer your question?”

 

VesVes says, with a serious tone, “Okay, JunJun! You know what to do!”

 

JunJun says, with a nod, “Yep!” Immediately, the two girls acrobatically leap forward, create a large circus net, and quickly set up the net so when Kuwabara comes back down to Earth, he lands safely in the net.

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “Good work, girls!”

 

Card Ejector says, with a smile, “Not bad!” Card Ejector then waves her magic wand and dozens of small firecrackers and land around the two Sailor Quartet members.

 

Syrus asks, perplexed, “What are they doing now?”

 

Yusuke replies, with a shrug, “Trying to `make them dance'?”

 

VesVes takes out a blow gun, puts something inside, and she says, with a sly smirk, “Oh, yeah!” VesVes blows on the blow gun and sends a small pea-sized projectile into the air, which lands on Card Ejector. Card Ejector looks to find a pea-sized firecracker on her and she giggles at it, but when the fuse goes out, it creates an explosion as strong as a stick of TNT.

 

JunJun says, with a sly smile, “Way to go, JunJun!” JunJun gives her fellow Sailor Quartet a high-five and the two of them giggle at it.

 

VesVes says, with a smile, “We've still got it!” After the smoke and dust die down, Card Ejector, badly burnt and smoking, but still very much alive, floats there.

 

Card Ejector then starts to cry like a little kid and yells out, “You are both meanies! I'm going to get you for that!” Immediately, she starts to fly away as our group manages to regroup together.

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “What a baby. The girls outwit her and runs away like a coward.”

 

Alexis says, with a serious tone, “Well, we've got to catch her. She might lead us to her `friends' and we need to stop these pranks.”

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “Right, Lex! Let's go!” Immediately, the group heads off after Card Ejector in the hopes of finding her fellow Duel Spirits and stop the `madness' that they are causing to Duel Academy.

 

(Back with Mina and Lita; A short time later)

 

Returning to our Sailor Senshi of Jupiter and Venus, they continue to look around for any signs of the mischievous Duel Spirits, but so far, they don't find a thing.

 

Lita says, with a sigh, “We didn't find a thing. I'm not sure that it was a good idea for both of us to go by ourselves.”

 

Mina says, with a smile, “Come on, Lita. We're Sailor Scouts! I'm sure that we can handle anything.”

 

Lita says, with a plain tone, “Well, we never faced cartoon monsters before.”

 

Mina says, with a smile, “You do have a point, but I'm sure that we can handle anything that comes our way!”

 

Just then a familiar female voice calls out, seductively, “Is that right honey?” Just then Mina and Lita look to the source of the voice to see none other than the Toon Gemini Elf in front of them.

 

Mina says, amazed, “Wow! That's the Too Gemini Elf.”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly tone, “Well, aren't you the sly one? Well, I've got to say that you are quite good on the looks. Well, for human girls.”

 

Lita replies, nervously, “Thanks, I think.” However, Lita shakes her head and she asks, with a serious tone, “Hold up! What do you think that you are doing with your pranks and stuff?!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “We are just having some little fun. Is that so wrong? We haven't been in the human world before.”

 

Mina asks, with a perplexed tone, “You say `hello' by pranking everyone?”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf asks, “Well, no one got hurt did they?”

 

Lita says, with a serious tone, “No.”

 

Mina says, plainly, “But something of the things that you did were quite . . . embarrassing.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a wide smile, “Well, as long as no one is hurt, I'm sure they will laugh about it in the future.”

 

Lita says, with a serious tone, “Well, forgive me if we don't agree!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, “Well, you need to lighten up!”

 

Lita yells out, with a serious tone and getting into a defensive position, “Just try it!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly grin, “Okay!” Just then before Lita and/or Mina could react, the Toon Gemini Elves throw two balloons that land in ground in front of them causing some kind of pink cloud to envelop them. The two girls start to cough, but when the pink cloud fades away, the two girls start to laugh uncontrollably.

 

Lita yells out, laughing, “What . . . *laugh* . . . is happening?”

 

Mina says, laughing a lot, “I don't . . . *laugh* . . . know . . . *laugh* . . . I can't stop . . . I can't stop . . . *laugh* *laugh* . . . laughing . . .!” The two girls can't stop their laughter as they fall to their knees in uncontrolled laugher.

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a smile, “Now, that's more like it. We feel that laughter makes all worries go away.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a chuckle, “Especially balloons that are filled with laughing gas.” The two Gemini Elves continue to laugh themselves while Lita and Mina continue to laugh themselves silly in uncontrolled laughter.

 

Mina says, still laughing uncontrollably, “Come on . . . *laugh* . . . stop this . . . *laugh* . . . this isn't . . . *laugh* . . . isn't . . .!!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini says, with a sly tone, “Oh, you girls just need to lighten up a bit more.” Soon after, the two Gemini Elves take out large feathers you would find in cartoon used to tickle `victims'.

 

Lita says, still laughing uncontrollably, “Oh . . . *laugh* . . . no . . .!!” The two girls, unable to control their laughter because of the laughing gas used on them are about to `suffer' under more of the two Duel Monsters' `fun'.

 

(Sometime soon after; back with the rest of our heroes and heroines)

 

In another area of Academy Island, we find our heroes and heroines, minus Lita and Mina, assembled together as the Dancing Fairy looked a tied up Card Ejector minus with a cartoon-like hump on her forehead and all of them were relating their stories.

 

Hikari asks, surprised, “Stuck in Cotton Candy, Inuyasha?”

 

Inuyasha says, with a snort, “Don't remind me.”

 

Kagome holds her stomach a bit and she says, a bit sickly looking, “It wasn't easy to get out.”

 

Miroku says, with a nod, “You said that too much sweets of your world are bad for you.”

 

Shippo says, holding his stomach in pain, “No joke!”

 

Yusuke says to Serena, “And you found several of `stink bomb' victims, huh?”

 

Serena states, with a nod, “No joke! Those boys are going to need several baths to get that stink out.”

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Well, at least we got one of them.”

 

Keiko says, with a sly smile, “Nice work on getting it, Kuwabara.”

 

Hiei says, with a sly grin, “I can't believe the fool managed to do that, but I guess he has his uses.”

 

Kuwabara yells out, annoyed, “Why you?! You didn't do a thing to help.”

 

Hiei says, with a plain tone, “If you mean about catching those foolish cartoon creatures, I think that you should think.” Hiei points to nearby area and everyone looks to see Toon Goblin Attack Force, Toon Dark Magician Girl, and Toon Mermaid totally tied up and restrained.

 

Jaden calls out, stunned, “Whoa! How did you do that?”

 

Hiei says, with a plain tone, “It takes a lot more than childish tricks to defeat me.”

 

Tyranno asks, plainly, “Not one for words, huh?”

Keiko says, with a nod, “Yep!”

 

Rei asks, curiously, “Aren't we missing a few people?”

 

Rini asks, with a nod, “Rei's right! Where are Mina and Lita?”

 

Ami says, nodding her head, “Rei and Rini are right. Mina and Lita should have been back by now.”

 

Serena says, worriedly, “We shouldn't have let them go off on their own.”

 

Kagome says, with a reassuring tone, “Don't worry, Serena. These Toon Monsters are not out to hurt people.”

 

Yusuke says, with a plain tone, “Yeah, but their pranks might do that.”

 

Kuwabara asks, curiously, “What should we do about these jokers?”

 

Hiei draws his sword and he says, “We should get rid of them and be done with it.”

 

Dancing Fairy yells out, worriedly, “No, you can't!”

 

Hikari says, with a nod, “You can't, Hiei! These Duel Spirits don't mean any harm! They don't know what they are really doing!”

 

Kuwabara says, with a plain tone, “It actually seems like they know what they are doing, but they are just pranks! Hikari's right! You can't just kill them!”

 

Hiei sheath his sword and he states, plainly, “Fine. What do you purpose to do fool?”

 

Darien says, with a serious tone, “I think that some of us should stay here to guard them while the rest of us go out and look for Mina and Lita.”

 

Alexis says, with a nod, “Good idea. I think that we should work fast.”

 

Jaden says, nodding his head, “Right, Lex. Let's get to it.”

 

Chazz thinks in his mind, in his usual tone, “This just gets weirder and weirder.”

 

(Back to Mina and Lita; on the meanwhile)

 

Returning to Mina and Lita, they are in a `bad' situation as they are tied to concrete slabs as their boots and stockings are taken off and laughing uncontrollably even louder than ever as the two Toon Gemini Elves continue to tick them with feathers on the soles of their feet. Plus, the two girls are still `suffering' from the effects of the laughing gas put on them. The two girls are laughing so hard that they can't get any words out.

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a smile, “These two are really having a good time.”

 

The brown Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly grin, “They are laughing so hard that they are unable to speak.”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf states, with a plain tone, “Maybe we should stop. They could die from laughter you know?”

 

The brown Toon Gemini Elf says, with a nod while taking out a can, “Good point. We don't want to do that.” Soon after, the two Gemini Elves stop tickling Mina and Lita and they spray them with some kind of other gas causing the two girls to finally stop laughing. Soon after, the two girls are quickly breathing as they try to regain oxygen into their lungs and bodies.

 

Lita says, huffing and puffing, “Thank . . . *huff* . . . goodness . . .”

 

Mina says, breathing heavily as well, “I . . . *huff* . . . thought that my . . . *huff* . . . my voice was going to go hoarse . . . through I'm not sure that it isn't . . .”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf takes out another spray can and she says, with a smile, “Let me take care of that.” Before Mina or Lita could say anything, the Gemini Elf sprays into their mouths and the liquids smoothes their mouths and espionages after all the uncontrolled laughing that they did.

 

Lita says, plainly, “That's feels better.”

 

The brown Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “Liquid throat soother. Never leave home without it.”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a giggle, “Yeah!”

 

Lita says, with a serious tone, “Now, can you get us off here!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a smile, “What's the serious face that you have now?”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “Why don't put a nice new smile on you?”

 

Mina asks, curiously, “Does Batman know that you are ripping off his lines?”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf snaps her fingers and she says, as the slabs that hold Mina and Lita vanish causing them to fall to the ground, “Oops. One thing that we cartoons don't like is copyright infringement.”

 

Mina whispers to Lita and she says, “Well, at least we don't know that they aren't bad.”

 

Lita whispers to Mina, “They aren't bad, Mina. They've just got one weird sense of humor.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf states, with a seductive tone, “Mmm, what should we do next?”

 

Lita says, with a serious tone, “Maybe you should give us our boots and stockings back and come with us.”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a giggle, “You're really funny! You have boys that you like.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “Yeah. Maybe you have a boyfriend or two. Since you are good-looking, well, for humans anyway.”

 

Mina says, nervously, “Thanks, I think.” Just then the blond haired Gemini Elf gets close to them and they yelp in shock.

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly giggle, “We're Duel Monsters that love gossip.”

 

Lita says, nervously, “That's good!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf asks, curiously, “We've seen plenty of the human males that you girls hang around with. Any cute human guys that you hang out with.”

 

Mina says, nervously, “Funny that you should ask.”

 

The blond Toon Gemini Elf says, with a squeal, “Ooh, this is so cool! I've always wanted to talk about humans and their `mating rituals'.”

 

Mina asks, perplexed, “Mating rituals?”

 

Lita says, nervously, “I'm not sure, but I have a good idea.”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “Well, I want the gossip!”

 

Lita asks, with a serious tone, “Does the word `privacy' mean anything to you?”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf gives a look of confusion and she replies, “Is that a food?”

 

Lita says, nervously, “You've got to be kidding me!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf takes out a dart blower and she says, “Actually, we're serious! And we're girls that get what we want!” Just then the brown haired Toon Gemini Elf fires one dart at each girl and hitting them on the arm causing them to yelp out in pain.

 

The two girls get the darts out of their arms and Mina yells out, annoyed, “What was that for?”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf asks Mina, “Okay, what's your name? And who is the boy that you like? And why?”

 

Mina then says, unable to control her mouth, “My name is Mina Aino and I like Atticus Rhodes because he is really hunky as well as great duelist and sportsman.”

 

Lita asks, perplexed, “Why did you tell them that?”

 

Mina says, perplexed, “I don't know, I couldn't help myself to tell the truth!”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “That's right! I gave my special `truth serum' and now, you can't help to tell us anything that we ask of you.”

 

Mina says, worriedly, “Oh, boy!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf asks, curiously, “And who do you like? And why do you like him?”

 

Lita tries to resist the `truth serum', but unable to she says, “I like a guy named Tyranno Hassleberry. And because he reminds me of my old boyfriend, but he is quite hunky, funny, and he is just a great guy.”

 

After Lita is done, she gives a wide blush and Mina asks, curiously, “Wow! You like him?”

 

Lita says, with a blush, “Yeah, I do. I mean, he has got a great personality and he is a real hunk. Plus, he kind of reminds me of my old boyfriend.”

 

Mina says, with a sly grin, “Every guy reminds you of your old boyfriend, Lita-chan!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf states, with a sly smile, “Ooh, so you like this guy! Does he like you?”

 

Lita says, unable to resist the truth serum, “I don't know. I never asked him, but he does blush when I am near him sometimes.”

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a sly smile, “That's a sure sign.”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, with a wide sly smile, “But I think that maybe we should help you get `deeper' into your feelings for these two boys.”

 

Mina and Lita yelp out in shock and Mina says, nervously, “No thanks! We can do just fine!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf yells out, with a sly grin, “No, we insist!” But before the two Toon monsters could make a move on Mina and Lita, a Spellbinding Circle appears and entraps them.

 

The brown haired Toon Gemini Elf calls out, stunned, “What the?!”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf yells out, shocked, “We're trapped!”

 

Just then a male voice calls out, “Nice deduction genius!” Soon after, the rest of our heroes and heroines appear from the trees and bushes and they get to Mina and Lita.

 

Hotaru asks them, concerned, “Are you okay?”

 

Lita says, with a plain tone, “Well, if you count being plugged with a Toon monster `truth serum' that makes you tells the truth as being okay.”

 

Rei asks, with a sly smile, “Ooh, really?”

 

Mina says, nervously, “Rei-chan, I don't like that look in your eye.”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “I don't like it either.”

 

Alexis asks Rei, with a suspicious tone, “You wouldn't be thinking of taking advantage of this situation?” Atticus gives a sly look and Alexis yells at him, “Don't even think about it, Romeo!”

 

Atticus says, with a serious tone, “Alexis, I would never do anything to Mina-chan!”

 

Alexis says, with a serious glare, “I know, but you were thinking of asking Lita something for another `romance' scheme, maybe with Mina.” Atticus gives a nervous smile and rubs the back of his head.

 

Syrus says, annoyed, “Oh, brother.”

 

Tyranno says, with a nod, “Ten-four, Private.”

 

Ami takes out her computer and she says, “I'll try to get to work on some kind of cure for this `truth serum'.”

 

Jaden asks, pointing to the trapped Toon monsters, “What do we do with them?”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, “We bring them with the others.”

 

The blond haired Toon Gemini Elf says, annoyed, “You are so mean! Witty Phantom will make sure that you will pay for being so mean to us!”

 

Zane says, dragging something over with a dark plain tone, “You mean this guy and his friends?” Just then Zane throws over a beat up Witty Phantom with knocked out Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon. Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “This wiseguy thought that he got the drop on us.”

 

Kuwabara says, cracking his knuckles, “But Urameshi and I made sure that we taught him a lesson on pranking us.”

 

Kagome asks, curiously, “So, what should we do now?”

 

Melody says, with a nasty tone, “That's simple, miko. Get rid of these guys.”

 

Shippo says, annoyed, “Man, Inuyasha! Your sister has got an attitude problem! I think that she is worse than you!”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “What was that fox brat?” Shippo immediately yelps in fear and runs behind Kagome.

 

Inuyasha tells Melody, “That little fox annoys me, Melody, but he doesn't do anything extreme. Just forget it, sis.” Melody snorts and crosses her arms in front of her.

 

Rei asks, perplexed, “What is her problem?”

 

Inuyasha replies, with a plain tone, “Long story.”

 

Chazz states, with his usual snobbish tone, “Can we get this over with so I can get on with my life?”

 

Rini says, with a nod, “Let's get these Duel Monsters out of here before they have a chance to escape and cause more trouble.”

 

Ami asks, curiously, “How do we do that?”

CereCere says, with a sly smile, “Leave that to us, Ami.”

 

JunJun says, with a sly grin, “We still have a few tricks from our Amazon Quartet days.”

 

Rini asks, curiously, “Are you sure that you can handle it?”

 

VesVes says, with a sly smile, “Trust us, princess. We can handle it.”

 

As Mina and Lita got their silk stockings and high-heeled boots back on, Mina asks Lita, “What do you think Lita-chan?”

 

Lita says, with a shrug, “Well, I trust since they are fellow scouts and proven to be great allies. But I'm not sure.”

 

Jaden says, with a wide smile, “I'm sure that this will work out. We've got to trust each other, everyone.”

 

Syrus says, with a nod, “If you say so, Jay.” Soon enough, the heroes and heroines prepare to gather the captured Duel Monsters and prepare to send them back home.

 

(A short time soon after; In front of the Ra Yellow Dorm)

 

Around the front area of the Ra Yellow Dorm, we find our heroes and heroines assembled in front of the captured Duel Monsters with pout and annoyed like looks on their faces as the Sailor Quartet are gathering their energies to transport them home. On the meanwhile, Dancing Fairy is in front of Ami.

 

Ami tells the little Duel Spirits, “Thank you for your help.”

 

Dancing Fairy says, with a kind smile, “It's no problem. We didn't doing this to humans anyway.”

 

Lita says, with a sly smile, “It's nice to know there are some Duel Spirits that are mischievous like these guys and gals.”

 

Witty Phantom says, with a snort, “You got lucky on capturing me.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “Whatever, pal.”

 

Ami tells the Dancing Fairies, “It is too bad that you have to go.”

 

The Dancing Fairies look at each other and they say, when they look at Ami, “We don't really have to go! Watch!” Just then the Dancing Fairies glow as they transform into a Dancing Fairy (1700/1000) monster card that floats to Ami's hands.

 

Mina says, amazed, “Wow! That's so cool!”

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “Sweet! Now, they don't have to leave as long as Ami takes care of them.”

 

Rei says, with a plain tone, “Taking care of those little Duel Spirits will be a big responsibility.”

 

Ami says, with a smile, “It's unusual, but I'm sure that I can handle it.”

 

Bastion says, with a nod and a smile, “I know that you can, Ami.”

 

Zane asks, with a dark plain tone, “Now, what about these guys?”

 

Rini asks the Sailor Quartet, “How is it coming girls?”

 

The Sailor Quartet stop gathering their energies and they say in unison, “Ready!”

 

Chazz calls out, in his usual snobbish tone, “Well, what are you waiting for?”

 

The Sailor Quartet sends their energies into the Duel Spirits and they yell out in unison, “Sailor Sphere Transport!” Just then four large spheres, similar to the ones that they held as the Amazon Quartet, appear around them and the Duel Spirit yell out in shock as the spheres cover them up. When the spheres vanish, the Duel Spirits are gone!

 

Mindy asks, perplexed, “Where did they go?”

 

Sailor Pallas says, with a giggle, “Where do you think? Back home where they can cause trouble to their own friends!”

 

Sailor Juno says, with a sly smile, “We sent them back where they came from. We used a bit of our Amazon Quartet teleportation bit while combining it with our new Sailor Scouts powers!”

 

Sailor Vesta says, with a smile, “And presto! A great disappearing act! Thank you!”

 

Chazz says, with his usual snobbish tone, “Well, good riddance. They were getting annoying!” Chazz then takes his duel disk with his dueling deck inside and walks away.

 

Alexis asks, curiously, “Where are you going Chazz?”

 

Chazz replies, plain and dark tone, “Where do you think? I'm going to take out the rest of those white clowns!”

 

Zane starts to walk away and he says, with a dark plain tone, “I'm starting to get bored too. I think I'll try to find a challenge among these so called pros and white losers. Later, everyone.”

 

Hikari says, with a serious tone, “Hey! Wait for me, Zane!” Soon enough, Chazz heads off in one direction and Zane and Hikari head off in another direction.

 

Keiko asks Yusuke, “Should we be worried about them?”

 

Yusuke says, with a scoff, “Nah! I think they will be fine! And my sister against those dorks, I don't think so!”

 

Keiko says, with a smile, “Yeah, you are right, Yusuke!” Keiko then goes over to Yusuke and she says, with a seductive loving tone, “That means that we can spend some quality time together, Yusuke.”

Yusuke says, with a loving tone, “Mmm, I like your idea.”

 

Bastion asks Ami, nervously, “Ami-chan, would you like to . . . spend some time with me?”

 

Ami replies, with a blush, “I would love to Bastion-sempai.”

 

Hotaru tells Syrus, lovingly, “Syrus-kun, can we go on that date that you promised me?”

 

Amara asks, curiously, “Date?”

 

Syrus tells Amara, with a smile, “I did promise, Hotaru-chan.”

 

Michelle tells Amara, with a kind smile, “I know that you are worried about Firefly, but she is a teenager now and we need to respect that she is getting into more `mature' things.”

 

Hotaru takes Syrus' right hand and she asks, lovingly, “Can we go now, Syrus-kun?”

 

Syrus says, with a loving tone, “Sure, Hotaru-chan.”

 

Jasmine says, with a sly smile, “Our little Syrus is growing up.”

 

Alexis says, with a smile while shaking her head, “Mindy!”

 

Atticus asks Mina, with an enticing loving tone, “So, Mina-chan, do you want to `hang out'?”

 

Mina replies, with a seductive loving tone, “Ooh, I would like that very much.”

 

Inuyasha asks Kagome, nervously, “Hey, Kagome . . . do you want to . . .”

 

Kagome kisses Inuyasha on the lips and she says, lovingly, “I would love to, Inuyasha.”

 

Melody yells out, annoyed, “Hey! Who said that you get to kiss my brother? And who says that you are going anywhere alone with him?”

 

Inuyasha says, annoyed, “Oh, boy! Come on, Kagome!” Immediately, Inuyasha scoops Kagome into his arms and makes a break to escape into the trees.

 

Melody follows them and shouts out, annoyed, “Bro! Get back here!”

 

As the rest of our group watches them go, Sango says, with a sigh, “Something tells me that she is the `overprotective sister'.”

 

Tyranno says, with a nod, “That's a big ten-four, ma'am.” Soon enough, Jaden and Alexis and Serena and Darien go off on their separate ways with the other couples on some `R and R' while Rei heads off her own way and it leaves Tyranno and Lita alone.

 

Lita asks Tyranno, nervously, “Hey, Hassleberry?”

 

Tyranno asks, blushing at the sight of Lita, “Yes?”

 

Lita asks Tyranno, nervously with a blush on her cheeks, “Do you want to get some `R and R'?”

 

Tyranno says, with a major flush in his cheeks, “S-Sure.” Soon after, Tyranno and Lita head off together for some `alone time' to themselves as well.

 

(Inside of the `White Dorm'; sometime later the same day)

 

Within Sartorius' private quarters inside of the `White Dorm', we find him looking over reports of our heroes and heroines defeating more and more of the Society of Light members. The `membership' in his Society has become smaller and smaller especially since our heroes and heroines retook the Girls' Dorm from the Society of Light, but the Light of Destruction possessed diviner doesn't even look concerned.

 

Sartorius gives off a slight sickly white glow and he says, evilly, “Those fools believe that they are on top now, but soon, they will all see the Light. Everyone does eventually and my plans are coming together. Soon, those keys shall return to me and the universe shall finally belong to the Light!”

 

(On the meanwhile; in another part of Academy Island)

 

Inside the library of Duel Academy, we find none other than our geniuses of our heroes and heroines, Ami Mizuno and Bastion Misawa, are sitting down at the table and researching information in books that they have placed on the table.

 

Ami tells Bastion, with a smile, “Wow, Bastion-semapi! These are some incredible books that you found.”

 

Bastion says, with a smile of his own, “I'm glad that you like them, Ami-chan. I found them during my first year here. I kept them to myself for special research if I needed to.”

 

Ami says, with a smile, “I've always been interesting in Duel Monsters since it is game that relies on so many factors and variables, but I never knew that it has such an extensive historical and cultural background.”

 

Bastion says, with a warm smile, “Well, we learn something new every day, Ami-chan.” The two of them were looking over the books and their hands were over the pages of interest, but then at one moment, their hands together each other and when they realize, they gives a major blush when they look into each other's eyes. However, when they look into each other's eyes, they are transfixed on each other as if in a trance. Soon enough, the two of them move their heads close and slowly close their eyes as their lips get ever so closer to each other. Soon after, the two of them lock their lips in a passionate kiss as they taste each other's mouths.

 

(Around the same time; Near the Slifer Red dorm)

 

At the cliff area near the Slifer Red dorm that's Jaden's and Syrus' `special spot', we find Syrus and Hotaru sitting down with their backs and/or sides to a nearby tree trunk and locked in a loving embrace.

 

Hotaru tells Syrus, with a loving tone, “This is wonderful, Syrus-kun.”

 

Syrus tells Hotaru, with a nod, “I know, Hotaru-chan.”

 

Hotaru says, with a warm smile, “Ever since I met you, I feel more confident in myself and such.”

 

Syrus says, with a smile, “Yeah. I'm so glad to know that I've met someone who can really understand me.”

 

Hotaru says, with a nod, “Same here, Syrus-kun. And plus, you are so cute.” Syrus blushes as Hotaru giggles at his blush. Soon after, the two of them enjoy a romantic and passionate kiss as they mate their tongues together and taste each other's mouths as they lock in a tender embrace.

 

(On the meanwhile; within another area of Duel Academy)

 

Deep inside of a forest within Duel Academy, we find Melody leaping around to look for any signs of Inuyasha and Kagome and when she doesn't see or sense them, she gives a look of annoyance.

 

Melody says, lowly and angrily, “Damn it. How could I let them get away like that? But I would rather be a dog than let my brother run off with that witch. I'll find them.” Soon after, Melody leaps far into the distance. However, when she is gone, Inuyasha's head pokes out seemly from thin air, but when his head vanishes, we look to see that he and Kagome are inside of some kind of `cloaking field'.

 

Inuyasha says, with a sigh, “That was close.” Inuyasha says, pointing to his Millennium Pendant, “I'm glad that this pendant really does a lot. Melody might have created it, but she can't negate all of its magic.”

 

Kagome asks Inuyasha, curiously, “Inuyasha, isn't it mean? I mean, she is your sister. Are you sure that this is wise to doing this?”

 

Inuyasha tells Kagome, plainly, “Kagome, that sister of mine wouldn't give us a day's peace! She is what you call an `overprotective' type and she didn't like when I was with Kikyo. She always tried to keep an eye on me even when I was alone with Kikyo. Do you really want her interrupting our privacy?”

 

Kagome says, with a plain tone, “When you say it that way, Inuyasha, I guess you are right. I know that your sister cares about you, but I think that she is kind of overbearing.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a sigh, “Overbearing doesn't even come close to describing her.”

 

Kagome says, with a plain tone, “I'm not sure what will happen if she meets my family.”

 

Inuyasha says, with a plain tone, “Well, she only hates priestess, so, since your mom isn't a miko, she will be okay. Sota will be just fine, too, but since your father is a Shinto Priestess, I'm not sure.”

 

Kagome says, with a sigh, “And I thought that our problems would be over after this.”

 

Inuyasha tells Kagome, with a sly smile, “Oh, get over it, Kagome! We've faced tougher stuff than this!” Soon after, Inuyasha scoops up Kagome into his arms and Kagome can't help to giggle at this.

 

Kagome asks, with a giggle, “Inuyasha, what are you doing?”

 

Inuyasha replies, with a seductive loving tone, “What do you think Kagome?” And like with the other couples before, we find Kagome and Inuyasha locking their lips in a passionate kiss, mating their tongues and tasting each other's mouths. Soon after, the two of them start to `make out' lovingly and gently as they lock their arms in a tender and loving embrace.

 

(Inside of Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm; A short time soon after)

 

Inside of the Obelisk Blue Girls' Dorm, we find ourselves within Serena's room, currently under renovation, and we find our Moon Princess, displaying an elegant dark blue dress in front of her boyfriend, who is sitting down on her large bed.

 

Serena asks, with a seductive tone, “What do you think love?”

 

Darien tells Serena, lovingly, “I think it looks perfect on you. It matches your lovely eyes.”

 

Serena blushes and she says, with a giggle, “Oh, Darien-kun . . .” Serena then winches and starts to rub her shoulders.

 

Darien asks, concerned, “What's wrong, Serena?”

 

Serena says, with a winch, “It's my shoulders. All this running around and battling has really put the pinch on my shoulders.”

 

Darien tells Serena, with a smile, “Allow me to help with that.”

 

Serena asks, curiously, “Can you?”

 

Darien tells Serena, with a smile, “I know that I can. I've been learning a lot of chiropractic medicine before all of this started. You know that I wanted to be a doctor.” Serena then goes over to Darien, sits on his lap, and Darien starts to gently massage and rub her shoulder causing her to sigh in relief and pleasure.

 

Serena tells Darien, with a sigh, “That's right, good, Darien . . . Ah . . . My shoulders have been aching for so long . . .”

 

Darien asks Serena, with a curious tone, “Why didn't you tell me or the others?”

 

Serena tells Darien, with a slight blush of embarrassment, “Sorry, I didn't want to worry you.”

 

Darien tells Serena, lovingly, “I know that you have been through a lot. All of us understand, but you have to know that we care and we worry about you.”

 

Serena tells Darien, with a loving tone, “I'm sorry, Darien-kun.”

 

Darien tells Serena, lovingly, “I understand. Just promise me that you will come forward if you are having any problems.”

 

Serena replies, with a loving tone, “I'll try, love.” Serena turns her head to kiss Darien on the lips as he continues to massage her shoulders. Within a minute, the kiss becomes deeper and more passionate as Darien continues to massage her shoulders. Just then Darien gently lowers Serena's dress from her body, exposing her sky blue bra covering much of her voluptuous breasts, and Serena turns to her left side to gently embrace Darien as he puts his right hand on her right breast as he gently fondles it causing slight moans to come from Serena's mouth. When they release from the kiss, Serena tells Darien, lovingly, “I love you, my prince.”

 

Darien replies, lovingly, “And I, you, my princess.” Soon enough, the two of them continue with their kiss, mating their tongues together and tasting each other's mouths as they enjoy their time together in a loving and gentle embrace.

 

(At the Slifer Red dorm; A short time soon after)

 

On the roof of the Slifer Red dorm, we find Jaden Yuki relaxing on the roof with his beloved girlfriend, Alexis Rhodes, in his arms and both of them having loving smiles on their faces as they look or seemly look at the sky.

 

Alexis asks Jaden, with a warm smile, “Isn't it beautiful Jaden?”

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “I don't know, Lex. I'm not looking at the sky.”

 

Alexis blushes gently and she says, with a loving giggle, “Jay, you goof!” Alexis and Jaden look at each other, lovely, and she asks him, with a loving tone, “Aren't you sure that you want a hanyou as your girlfriend?”

 

Jaden tells Alexis, with a loving tone, “Alexis, you might be a half-demon, but you are an angel in my eyes.”

 

Alexis tells Jaden, with a blush and loving tone, “Oh, Jay . . .”

 

Jaden asks, with a sly smile, “Yes, Lexy?”

 

Alexis says, with a sly smile, “Just kiss me you goof.” Soon after, the two of them share their own passionate kiss and enjoying their romantic time together.

 

(Around this same time; at the beach)

 

On the beach, we find our elder Rhodes sibling relaxing as he is just wearing a pair of swimming trucks with sunglasses over his eyes and working on his tan.

 

Atticus says, with a sigh, “Ah! What a beautiful day! What could make it better?”

 

Just then a familiar female voice asks, with a sly loving tone, “How about some time with me, Atti-kun?” When Atticus takes off his sunglasses and looks to the source of the voice, he gives a wide blush seeing his girlfriend, Mina Aino, wearing a yellowish-orange bikini.

 

Atticus asks, stunned, “Mina-chan?”

 

Mina seductively walks over to him and says, lovingly while sitting down by him, “Who were you expecting?”

 

Atticus tells Mina, lovingly, “Mina-chan, wow! I don't know what to say! You are . . . so beautiful.”

 

Mina asks, curiously, “Do you really mean it?”

 

Atticus tells Mina, with a loving tone, “Mina, you are beauty incarnate.”

 

Mina giggles and she says, with a wide flush in her cheeks, “Oh, Atti . . .” Just then Atticus sits up and the two of them lock in a passionate embrace.

 

Atticus says, with a loving tone, “The most beautiful girl. Mina-chan, you just made this day perfect.”

 

Mina replies, lovingly, “I'm glad that I can make your day, Atti-kun.” Soon enough, the two of them share a passionate kiss for several minutes. When they break off their kiss, Mina tells Atticus, lovingly, “I love you, Atticus Rhodes.”

 

Atticus replies, with a loving tone, “And I love you, my angel of beauty.” Atticus then relaxes on the mat, taking Mina with him, and Mina gently lays on him as they enjoy another loving passionate kiss.

 

(Elsewhere on Academy Island; at this same time)

 

Near the lake of water on Academy Island, we find Yusuke Urameshi and Keiko Yukimura enjoying sometime by the lake with Yusuke relaxing his back on a tree and Keiko nuzzled on his chest with Yusuke's arms wrapped around her.

 

Keiko asks Yusuke, with a warm smile, “Isn't this wonderful Yusuke?”

 

Yusuke says, with a smile, “If you say so.”

 

Keiko states, with a sight pout, “Oh, Yusuke, you can't appreciate the beauty of anything in life can't you?”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “That's funny. I've got a beautiful angel in my arms and I appreciate her.”

 

Keiko gives a major blush and she says, with a giggle, “Oh, Yusuke, you are so silly. You can be a real pain.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, “But I'm your pain.”

 

Keiko says, with a loving tone, “And I wouldn't take the universe over you.” Soon enough, the two of them engage in a loving and passionate kiss for several minutes. When they release from the kiss, Keiko tells Yusuke, lovingly, “I love you, Yusuke Urameshi.”

 

Yusuke tells Keiko, with a loving tone, “And I love you, my princess.”

 

(A brief time later; within another part of Duel Academy)

 

In another area of Academy Island, we find a male SOL member collapse into the ground, his form smoking, while Zane looks over him with a dark plain look on his face with Hikari by his right side.

 

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “Defeated in one turn. That's really pathetic.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a dark plain tone, “It is a white dork, Zane-kun. What do you expect?”

 

Zane says, with a dark snort, “You do have a point, Kari. But this is getting boring.”

 

Hikari tells Zane, with a loving tone, “Well, I could make things more exciting.”

 

Zane asks, with a dark smile and dark loving tone, “Are you really sure that you want to trust me after that whole `affair'?”

 

Hikari says, with a sly grin, “I know that you won't do that again since you can't do that again. Plus, even if you try, you know what I will do to you.”

 

Zane states, with a dark sly grin, “Don't I know it. So, you really think that someone like me can make up for that?”

 

Hikari says, with a sly smile, “Well, I learned that no one is beyond redemption and I know plenty of ways that you can make up for your little stunt.”

 

Zane asks, with a dark sly tone, “It makes me wonder if it involves pain.”

 

Hikari says, with a loving tone, “Not really, but it does involve pampering and going shopping with me.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly smile and dark loving tone, “I don't understand girls, but if that's what it takes to get your forgiveness, it is fine with me.”

 

Hikari says, with a loving tone, “I knew that you would see things my way.”

 

Just then Zane scopes Hikari into his arms and he says, with a dark loving tone, “However, it doesn't mean that I won't doing some things in our relationship my way.”

 

Hikari says, with a loving tone, “I wouldn't ask for anything less, my `dark prince'.”

 

Zane says, with a dark loving tone, “Right, my galactic princess.” Soon after, the two of them engaged in a passionate kiss and gently and lovingly embraced each other.

 

(Inside of the Ra Yellow dorm; A short time later)

 

On the meanwhile, within the Ra Yellow dorm, we find Tyranno Hassleberry enjoying a meal prepared by our Sailor Soldier of Jupiter.

 

Lita asks Tyranno, curiously, “How do you like Hassleberry?”

 

Tyranno says, excitedly, “Excellent, ma'am! This grub is far better than anything the cooks at Slifer Red or in my barracks ever made! This dish is made for a king, not a soldier like me!”

 

Lita tells Tyranno, with a smile, “I'm glad that you like it!”

 

Tyranno asks Lita, with a smile, “You must be the cook for your family, right?”

 

Lita becomes solemn and says, lowly, “I don't have a family.”

 

Tyranno asks, surprised, “What?”

 

Lita says, with a solemn tone and expression, “My family died in a plane crash when I was young.”

 

Tyranno says, nervously, “Oops. Sorry about that ma'am.”

 

Lita tells Tyranno, with a weak smile, “It's all right.”

 

Tyranno looks over Lita, can't help to blush, and he asks Lita, “Do you have any . . . you know? Right hand man? Um, a boyfriend?”

 

Lita says, with a weak smile, “I had one. You kind of remind me of him.”

 

Tyranno asks, curiously, “I do?”

 

Lita says, with a sly smile, “You don't look him, but you are kind handsome and a hunky with all of those muscles.”

 

Tyranno gains a major blush and he says, with a slight nervous tone, “Thanks.”

 

Lita says, with a blush on her cheeks, “You're welcome.”

 

Tyranno asks, curiously, “I hate to seem noisy, ma'am, but after your boyfriend and you . . . `retreated' from each other, why haven't you got another boyfriend? I mean, you are very . . . beautiful.”

 

Lita replies, with a blush, “Thanks, Hassleberry. It is kind of complicated. I've got reputation like Yusuke's reputation.”

 

Tyranno asks, curiously, “The bad kind, huh?”

 

Lita states, with a nod, “Yeah, I kind of get into fights. But then again, I'm the Soldier of Jupiter. I'm a hard-core fighter like Yusuke and plenty of boys prefer girls that are . . . you know, girlish?”

 

Tyranno says, with a snort, “Oh, that's hogwash, ma'am! You are tall and beautiful young lady! What kind of guy wouldn't want you? Just because you are a real `tough girl' and can take care of yourself. If boys prefer girls that are helpless and need to be support by a man, then they are just probably just sickos that are just plain `unmentionable' girls or girls that willing to give them a `good time'.”

 

Lita says, with a wide smile, “Thank you, Hassleberry.”

 

Tyranno says, with a sly smile, “Just part of my job as one of Jaden's right hand men!”

 

Lita asks, with a sly smile, “I thought that you and Syrus got over that?”

 

Tyranno says, with a sly giggle, “No way! That little runt might have won that match and showed his devotion to the Sarge, but that doesn't mean I won't give up to be his number two!”

 

Lita gives a giggle and he says, with a smile, “You are a funny and good-looking Hassleberry.”

 

Tyranno says, with a major blush and with embarrassed tone, “Thanks . . . I think.” Soon enough, the two of them couldn't stop staring at each other and blush greatly when they do so, but they couldn't take their eyes off each other even when they turn their heads away from each other since they glance at each other a lot.

 

(Later on that day; At Duel Academy's harbor)

 

Inside of Duel Academy's harbor, we find our Fire Sailor Senshi walking around and enjoying the partly cloudy and sunny skies and taking a deep breath causing her to give a wide smile.

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “See something that you like?” Rei looks towards the source of the voice to see none other than Aster Phoenix looking towards the sea with a plain expression on his face.

 

Rei asks, plainly, “What are you doing here?”

 

Aster says, with a plain tone, “Last time that I checked it was a free country.”

 

Rei yells out, annoyed, “You are really starting to annoy me, Phoenix!”

 

Aster asks, with a sly smile, “And that's different from the other times that we met, how?”

 

Rei says, with a snort, “Fine! You don't want to answer . . .”

 

Aster then says, plainly, “I'm in the quarter-finals.”

 

Rei then asks, surprised, “What?”

 

Aster replies, plainly, “I'm in the quarter-finals and so is Sartorius.”

 

Rei replies, with a dark snort, “I'm not surprised.”

 

Aster asks Rei, curiously, “You want to know how I know already?”

 

Rei says, with a serious tone, “That did bug me.”

 

Aster replies, with a plain tone, “Sartorius arranged it to make sure that I was.”

 

Rei says, with a serious tone, “I guess we were right. He is coming after you.”

 

Aster says, with a serious tone, “That's fine with me. I want him to do that.”

 

Rei says, flabbergasted, “Are you crazy? Don't you know that's not your friend in his body? It's an ancient evil force that's existed since the dawn of time!”

 

Aster says, with a serious and determined tone, “I know that! And I plan to eject him from my friend's body and send him back where he came from.”

 

Rei says, with an annoyed tone, “Did you get dropped when you were a baby? I can't believe that after all that you know and saw. You are still going to go after him? I don't get you!”

 

Aster asks Rei, seriously, “What if it was your friend? Wouldn't you do the same?”

 

Rei gets a bit of a solemn tone and after a few minutes, she says, “Okay, you got me. I would do anything what it takes to get my best friend, Serena, back from any evil. However, I wouldn't do anything reckless because if something happened to me, Meatball Head would never forgive herself. Don't you think that Sartorius would feel the same if anything happened to you? He wouldn't forgive himself.”

 

Aster says, with a serious tone, “You might have a point, Rei. However, if I was the one possessed by this evil force, he would do the same for me. I can't do anything less that I know Sartorius would do for me.”

 

Rei tells Aster, “I understand, Aster. My friends are valuable to me. Before I met Serena and the other girls, I had no friends. In that school that my `father' forced me into, girls praised me, but in secret, they thought of me as a freak. Only when Serena and the girls came into my life, I had true friends.”

 

Aster walks over to Rei and he says, with a plain tone, “I guess we are more alike than either of us thought. But that means that you understand what I feel. You lost a parent and so did I. Your friends are your family and my friends are too. I lost my father and Sartorius is all I have left of my family. You know what I have to do.” Aster then starts to walk off into the distance.

 

Rei turns to face him and she yells out, “Wait!”

 

Aster turns around and he asks, curiously, “Yes?” Just then Rei unexpectedly kisses Aster on the lips causing him to widely flush.

 

Rei blushes in kind and she says, lowly, “Don't get into it. It was just for luck.”

 

Aster replies, surprised, “Um, thanks.” Soon after, Aster kisses Rei on the lips and he says, while Rei widely blushing, “The same for you, Rei. And by the way, I've got to admit and I'm not kidding, you are quite cute when you blush.” Rei's blush becomes the deepest red possible and Aster says, as he turns away, “Thanks, again.” Aster then walks away and Rei can't help to stare at him as he leaves.

 

Rei then says, lowly, “Good luck.”

 

(Several days later; Inside of Obelisk Arena)

 

Within Obelisk Arena, we find the stands filled to the brim as Chancellor Sheppard is standing in the middle of the stands with a wireless microphone in his hands. In the stands, we find Slifer Red, Ra Yellow, and Obelisk Blue students as well as a few Society of Light members, but thanks to the efforts of our heroes and heroines, they are very few in number. Plus, there are also Pro Duelists that took part in the tournament and we also find our heroes and heroines expect for Serena, Zane, Jaden, Kagome, Yusuke, and Hikari looking down at the stands.

 

Chazz crosses his arms across his chest and he yells out, annoyed, “I can't believe that I'm not in the finals.”

 

Mindy says, with a sly smile, “Well, you did get beat by Serena.”

 

Jasmine says, with a smile, “It looks like Jaden beat you, again, Alexis.”

 

Alexis says, with a nod, “Yeah, but it was a close duel.”

 

Bastion says, with a dark serious tone, “We should know that Aster and Sartorius are also in the finals as well.”

 

Lita says, with a dark annoyed tone, “Don't remind us.”

 

Rei thinks in her mind, seriously, “You and your brother better be careful, Meatball Head, or I won't ever forgive you.” However, part of her is also worried about Aster Phoenix as well.

 

Kuwabara says, seriously, “They're starting!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard yells out, through the microphone, “Good morning, everyone! I am honored to welcome you to the GX tournament finals! The duels have been hard and long, but now, the final duels are finally here! We have eight quarter finalists and they have proven to be excellent duelists!”

 

Inuyasha and Melody are hiding in the shadows, but they managed to find a place for a good view in the arena and Inuyasha says to himself, annoyed, “Come on! Let's get on with it!”

 

Melody thinks in her mind, annoyed, “I can't believe that my brother is still fixated on this wench! I guess some things never change in thousands of years!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard calls out, with a smile on his lips, “Now, let us meet the finalists!” Just then Zane, Serena, Jaden, Kagome, Yusuke, Hikari, Aster, and Sartorius enter the room, all of them with duel disks attached to their left wrists, with plenty of the crowd `booing' Sartorius and/or giving him dark angered and annoyed glares. When the group comes onto the dueling platform in the center of the area, Chancellor Sheppard calls out, “First off, there is recently Duel Academy graduate and former top student here at Duel Academy: Zane Truesdale! Next, there is our lovely Princess of Obelisk Blue and as some say, the newest `Queen' of that dorm: First year Queen Blue, Serena Tsukino!”

 

Jasmine yells out, stunned, “New Queen?! No way! Serena is good, but Alexis is the Queen of our dorm!”

 

Alexis says, with an embarrassed tone, “Oh, boy.”

 

Chancellor Sheppard calls out, through the microphone, “Next, there is our Slifer Red `Miracle Duelists' and Elemental Hero duelist: Second year Slifer Red, Jaden Yuki!”

 

Plenty of cheers come up from our heroes and heroines and Syrus calls out, “Go get them, Jay!”

 

Tyranno says, with an excited tone, “No mercy, Sarge!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard shouts out, with a sly smile, “Next, there is one of our legendary dragon users here at Duel Academy: First year Ra Yellow, Kagome Higurashi!” There are plenty of gasps from the crowd and Chancellor Sheppard shouts out, “And Miss Higurashi's cousin and the second of the legendary dragon users, First Year Obelisk Blue, Yusuke Urameshi!” There are more gasps and whispering and murmuring from the crowd.

 

Kuwabara shouts out, “Go get them, Urameshi!”

 

Keiko calls out, excitedly, “Go, Yusuke!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard says, with a sly smile, “Next, there is Mister Urameshi's sister and a fine duelist here: The lovely First Year Obelisk Blue, Hikari Urameshi!” Hikari then waves out into the crowd and plenty of cheers as well as gasps and murmuring comes from the crowd. Chancellor Sheppard says, motioning the Aster, “Next, there is famous Pro Duelist and recent student to our Academy: Aster Phoenix!” Aster just gives a sly smile and Chancellor Sheppard yells out, pointing to Sartorius, “And finally, leader of the Society of Light and the oldest new student to come to Duel Academy: Sartorius!” There are plenty of jeers and dark glares of anger at Sartorius, the majority of them from Academy students, which is understandable, based on what he or the evil force inside of him made him do to them. However, Sartorius doesn't even twitch from his evil sly smile.

 

Lita says, with a snort, “Arrogant jerk.”

 

Darien says, with a serious tone, “True, but we should remember that's not Sartorius. It is one of the most evil forces in the universe.”

 

Kurama says, with a nod, “Indeed. And now, it is time for the `Endgame' as we would say.”

 

Sango says, in modern-day clothing, “I hope that Kagome will be okay down there.”

 

Chancellor Sheppard says, with a serious tone over the microphone, “The choosing for the quarter-finals have been chosen at random and they go as follows: Zane Truesdale versus Serena Tsukino, Kagome Higurashi versus Jaden Yuki, it is brother versus sister with Yusuke Urameshi going against his sister, Hikari Urameshi, and finally, Sartorius and Aster Phoenix will have the honor of the last match of the quarter-finals.”

 

Rei thinks in her mind, drolly, “Oh, great. It is what Aster Phoenix wanted. That jerk better be careful.”

 

Chancellor Sheppard yells out, “When these duels are over, there will be only four duelists remaining! So, are all of you ready to get your game on?!” Plenty of cheers come out of the crowd cheer as the quarter-finals are about to begin.

 

Mindy says, with a smile, “I guess that Jaden's catchphrase is getting catchy.”

 

Jasmine says, with a nod, “You can say that again.”

 

Chazz thinks in his mind, annoyed, “Why is that Slacker's catchphrase more catchy than mine?!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard yells out, seriously, “Okay, then! It is time for the first match: Zane Truesdale versus Serena Tsukino!” Immediately, Chancellor Sheppard and the others leave the dueling platform while Zane and Serena exchange their decks and shuffling them while Serena notices Zane has a dark smile on his lips, but his dark smile is different than before.

 

Serena thinks in her mind, looking at Zane, “Something feels different about him. I don't know what, but there is something different about Zane.”

 

Zane and Serena return their decks to each other, insert them into their duel disks, and Zane says, with a dark plain tone, “I except a good duel from you, Serena. If you give me anything less, you will regret it.”

 

Serena is a bit surprised from Zane's statement, but she says, with a sly grin, “Don't worry, Zane. I'll show that I'm just as good as my brother.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “We'll see Serena. I'm giving you no mercy at all.” Soon enough, Zane and Serena walk to opposite sides of the field and the two of them prepare for their duel.

 

Syrus thinks in his mind, looking at Zane, “Something seems different about my brother.”

 

Hotaru asks Syrus, curiously, “Is there something wrong, Syrus-kun?”

 

Syrus whispers to Hotaru, with a plain tone, “There is something different about my brother. Nothing bad, actually, he seems to be a bit back to his `old self'.”

 

Hotaru asks, in a whisper, “Are you sure?” Syrus gives a nod of his head and Hotaru looks on with a greater curious look than before. Zane and Serena activate their duel disks, their life-point counters display 4000 life-points, and they draw five cards from their decks.

 

Zane yells out, with a dark serious tone, “Ready?!”

 

Serena calls out, with a nod, “Yeah! Get your game on, Zane!” Zane only gives a wider smirk in reply.

 

Chancellor Sheppard announces through the microphone, “If everyone is ready: Duel!”

 

“Game on!” Serena and Zane yell out in unison as the duel begins.

 

Starting Scores:

Serena: 4000

Zane: 4000

 

Serena draws one card from her deck and calls out, “It's my move!” Serena puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “I summon Elemental Hero Stratos in attack mode!” Elemental Hero Stratos (1800/300) comes to the field in attack mode and then a card comes out of Serena's deck causing her to say, “Now, I activate his ability! Since he was successfully summoned to the field, I can take one `Elemental Hero' from my deck and add it to my hand! And I choose my Elemental Hero Woodsman!” Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Then I play my Hero's Bond spell card! Since I have one Elemental Hero on my field, I get to summon two more from my hand!” Serena puts two cards on her duel disk and yells out, “I choose Elemental Hero Woodsman and Elemental Hero Lady Heat in defense mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Woodsman (1000/2000) and Elemental Hero Lady Heat (1300/1000) come to the field in defense mode. Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and she says, with a serious tone, “I place one card face-down and end my turn, but before it fully ends, you lose six hundred life-points thanks to my Lady Heat's special ability!” Just then Lady Heat fires three fires balls at Zane, but he doesn't even cringe when they hit him costing him six hundred life-points.

 

Current Score:

Serena: 4000

Zane: 3400

 

Chazz says, with his usual snobbish tone, “Well, I've got to admit that she isn't bad.”

 

Zane says, with a dark serious tone while drawing one card, “It's my move!” Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “I place Graceful Charity! Now, I draw three new cards from my deck and discard two from my hand!” Zane draws three cards from his deck, discard Cyber Phoenix (1200/1600) and Cyber Soldier of Dark World (1400/1200) monster cards to the graveyard, and he says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Next, I play my Time Fusion spell card! By removing one card from my hand from play, next turn, I can summon one Fusion monster from my fusion deck without any need for summoning requirements!”

 

Mindy says, worriedly, “That's not good.”

 

Bastion says, with a nod, “Yes. Zane is not pulling any punches.”

 

Zane puts one card from his hand in his pockets, puts another card on his duel disk, and yells out, “Next, I play my Proto-Cyber Dragon in attack mode!” Just then Proto-Cyber Dragon (1100/600) comes to the field in attack mode. Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, strongly, “Next, I play my Overload Fusion! By removing Fusion Material monsters from my field and my graveyard, I can summon a Dark type Machine fusion monster!” Zane takes out a fusion monster card from his fusion deck and calls out, “I remove my Proto-Cyber, my Cyber Phoenix, and my Cyber Soldier of Dark World from play in order to summon my Chimeratech Overdragon!” Zane removes the said monsters from his duel disk and graveyard, put them in his pocket, and puts the fusion monster card on his duel disk causing Chimeratech Overdragon (2400/2400) with three of its head coming out its metal body to appear on the field in attack mode. Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “Thanks to Chimeratech, he gains eight hundred attack points for every monster that I used in the fusion and plus, for every monster that I removed, he gets one attack! And since I removed three, he gets to attack three times!”

 

On the sidelines, Kagome says, worriedly, “Uh oh. Zane isn't really fooling around.”

 

Jaden says, with a nod, “I wouldn't expect anything less from him.”

 

Zane yells out, with a dark serious tone, “Chimeratech, attack and destroy all her monster!” Chimeratech Overdragon fires three beams of energy from its head at Serena's monsters, destroying Lady Heat and Stratos, causing Serena to lose 600 life-points.

 

But before the third attack can hit Woodsman, Serena yells out, pushing a button on her duel disk, “Hold it, Zane! I play my Hero Barrier trap card!” Serena's face-down card is revealed to be the Hero Barrier trap card and Serena says, with a sly smile, “This trap card will negate one attack as long as I have an Elemental Hero on the field!” Just then a shield negates the attack on Woodsman.

 

Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a dark smile, “Hmm, I've got to admit that's not bad, but I'm far from done with you. Don't expect to get lucky next time. I play to win! So, I'll end my turn!”

 

Jaden asks, perplexed, “Is it me or does Zane sound different?”

 

Yusuke says, with a nod, “Yeah. He does.”

 

Kagome asks Hikari, curiously, “Do you know what's going on with him?”

 

Hikari says, with a sly smile, “You'll see, Kagome.”

 

Current Score:

Serena: 3400

Zane: 3400

 

Serena draws one card from her deck and calls out, “It's my turn! And during my Standby Phase, with Woodsman on the field, I get to add one Polymerization card from my deck to my hand!” Just then a card comes out of Serena's deck and she puts it into her hand. Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “And now, I play Polymerization!” Serena discards her Elemental Hero Ocean (1500/1200) monster card to the graveyard and calls out, strongly, “I fuse my Ocean with my Woodsman to form one of my strongest Hero monsters!” Ocean appears on the field, goes into a fusion vortex with Woodsman, and Serena gets a fusion monster card from her fusion deck. Serena puts the card on her duel disk and calls out, “Come on out, Elemental Hero Terra Firma!” Out of the fusion vortex, Elemental Hero Terra Firma (2500/2000) comes to the field in attack mode. Serena yells out, strongly, “Terra Firma, attack his Chimeratech Overdragon!” Terra Firma moves in to attack Chimeratech Overdragon.

 

Zane pushes a button on his duel disk and yells out, in a dark strong tone, “I don't think so! I play my Dimension Explosion!” Zane's face-down card is revealed to be a spell card with a picture of a split scene with one half of the background being Skyscraper II-Hero City with the other half being the original Skyscraper with Air Neos, Steam Gyroid, and Ojama King going against Dark Magician, Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and Gearfried the Iron Knight in-between a large explosion. Zane yells out, strongly, “By returning one Fusion monster from my field to the graveyard, we can summon back all the monster removed from play as possible, but since I'm the only one that removed monsters, I'm the one that gets back monsters! So, I return Chimeratech Overdragon to my deck to get back the monsters that I used to create him!” Chimeratech Overdragon vanishes from the field, Zane puts cards from his pocket on his duel disk, and then Proto-Cyber Dragon (1100/600), Cyber Phoenix (1200/1600), and Cyber Soldier of Dark World (1400/1200) reappear on the field in defense mode. Soon after, Terra Firma attacks and destroys Cyber Solider of Dark World, but since it was in defense mode, Zane doesn't lose any life-points.

 

Serena puts two cards in the spell/trap slots and she says, with a plain tone, “I end my turn.”

 

Zane draws one card from his deck and calls out, “It's my turn!” Zane then takes out a card from his pocket, displays a Card from a Different Dimension spell card, and yells out, “And first, this returns to me: Card from a Different Dimension! This is the card that I removed with Time Fusion's effect! However, it's back and now we get to draw two cards from our decks!” Zane and Serena draw two more cards from their decks into their hands. Zane then yells out, taking a fusion monster card from his fusion deck and put it on his duel disk, “And now, thanks to Time Fusion, I summon Cyber End Dragon!” Just then Cyber End Dragon (4000/2800) comes to the field in attack mode. Zane then yells out, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, “But your problems don't end there! I play Pot of Greed and get two more cards from my deck!” Zane draws two more cards from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and yells out, “Then I play Polymerization!” Zane discards three Cyber Dragon (2100/1600 X 3) monster cards from his hand to the graveyard and he cries out, “So, I fuse my three Cyber Dragons with my Proto-Cyber Dragon and Cyber Phoenix!” As Zane takes a fusion monster card from his fusion deck, the three Cyber Dragons appear on the field, and fuse with Proto-Cyber Dragon and Cyber Phoenix. Zane puts the fusion monster card on his duel disk and yells out, “Meet Chimeratech Fortress Dragon!” Just then Chimeratech Fortress Dragon (0/0) appears in the field in attack mode.

 

Serena asks, perplexed, “Huh? Why did you summon a monster with no attack power?”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “Simple. He might be short on attack points, but when he attacks, he and I take no damage and you lose four hundred life-points for the attack and he gets to attack the same number of times as monsters that I sacrificed to summon him!”

 

Serena yells out, stunned, “That means you can attack five times!”

 

Zane yells out, with a dark strong tone, “Chimeratech, give the girl a prize! Attack with Sonic Screech!” Chimeratech Fortress Dragon fires a sonic wave at Terra Firma, hitting it, but neither monster is destroyed, however, Serena cries out as she loses 400 life-points. Zane calls out, darkly, “And he is far from done! Again!” One of the circular parts of his Chimeratech's body opens up, revealing another dragon-like machine head, and it fires another sonic wave that hits Terra Firma causing Serena to lose another 400 life-points. Zane calls out, with a dark strong tone, “Hit her again!” Another head comes out of the circular containers that make up Chimeratech's body and it launches the same attack again that hits Terra Firma and costing Serena another 400 life-points. Zane yells out, with a dark sly smile, “And here comes to the last attacks! One after another!” The same attacks hit Terra Firma again, twice, and costing Serena another 800 life-points. Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a dark sly smile, “I think that I did enough damage for now! I end my turn!”

 

Current Score:

Serena: 1400

Zane: 3400

 

Lita yells out, shocked, “Serena lost more than half of her life-points!”

 

Jaden says, stunned, “Wow! Serena isn't kidding around.”

 

Yusuke says, with a nod, “You know it, Jay.”

 

Serena says, drawing one card from her deck, “It's my move!” Serena thinks in her mind, amazed, “Zane played his move flawless! Knowing that his Cyber End Dragon wouldn't be able to attack this turn, he prepared to hit me with another monster! But I don't get it! If he had those three Cyber Dragons, he could have summoned another Cyber End Dragon to attack me. Why didn't he? Most likely, he has something else planned for me.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly grin, “Come on, Serena. Everyone is waiting. They are waiting to see what the new Princess of Obelisk Blue can do.”

 

Serena says, with a sly smile, “Oh, I can do a lot.” Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “I play my Shallow Grave! This card allows both of us to summon one monster to the field in defense mode! And I choose my Elemental Hero Stratos!” Just then Elemental Hero Stratos (1800/300) returns to the field in defense mode.

 

Zane calls out, with a dark plain tone, “And I choose my Cyber Phoenix!” Just then Cyber Phoenix (1200/1600) comes back to the field in defense mode.

 

A card comes out of Serena's deck and she yells out, with a sly grin, “That's fine! But now, thanks to Stratos, I can take one Elemental Hero from deck and add it to my hand! And I choose Elemental Hero Neos!” Serena puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, “But first, I play my Cold Enchanter in attack mode!” Just then Cold Enchanter (1600/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Serena yells out, strongly, “Now, I play Terra Firma's ability! I sacrifice Stratos and Terra Firma gains its attack and defense points for this turn!” Zane gasps in shock as Terra Firma absorbs Stratos, it becomes dark red, and it gains two flames swords in its two hands while its stats rise from 2500/2000 to 4300/2300! Serena yells out, strongly, “Terra Firma, attack Cyber End Dragon! Terra Firma Magma Slash!” Terra Firma races in, slashes Cyber End Dragon apart, and Zane yells out in shock as his monster explodes while he loses 300 life-points. Serena yells out, strongly, “Cold Enchanter, take out his Chimeratech!” Cold Enchanter fires a wave of freezing energy that freezes Chimeratech Fortress Dragon solid and its shatters causing Zane to lose 1600 life-points. Serena says, with a plain tone, “That will end my turn.” Elemental Hero Terra Firma's stats return from 4300/2300 to 2500/2000.

 

Current Score:

Serena: 1400

Zane: 1500

 

Syrus thinks in his mind, perplexed, “Why my brother is allowing Serena get one up on him like that?”

 

Zane gives a dark sly giggle and he says, with a dark sly tone, “Not bad. You took apart a couple of my best creatures.” Zane then says, with a dark serious tone, “But don't expect to enjoy it for too long!” Zane draws one card from his deck, displays a picture of a spell card of a magician over a large treasure, and Zane yells out, “I play my Alchemist Treasure spell card! By removing one card from my hand from play, I can play any spell card from my deck!” Zane removes the only card in his hand, Card from a Different Dimension spell card, to his pocket, a card comes from his deck, and Zane says, displaying his Card of Sanctity spell card, “And I choose Card of Sanctity!” Zane puts the card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, darkly, “Now, both of us must draw from our decks until we have six cards in our hands!” Zane and Serena then draw from their decks until they have six cards in their hands and Serena spots her Rainbow Dragon (4000/0) monster card. Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “From the look on your face, you must have gotten the second of your critical cards that you wanted.” Serena gives her surprised look and Zane says, with a dark sly tone, “That's right. I know what you are up to. You are playing to summon your monster powerful monster yet, Rainbow Neos, to finish the duel.” Zane puts a card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, with a dark serious tone, “Too bad, Serena! I play my Card Destruction! Both of us have to discard our entire hands right now!”

 

Serena thinks in her mind, stunned, “Rats! That totally ruins my strategy!” Zane and Serena discard their hands, Zane draws five cards from his deck, and Serena draws six cards.

 

Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “And now, I play my Power Bond! With this card, by sending Fusion Material monsters from my hand and field to the graveyard, I can summon a Machine-type Fusion monster!” Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “But I'm short on monsters, so, I play my Cybernetic Fusion Support! By paying half of my life-points and removing the Fusion Material monsters from my grave from play, I can summon forth an old friend!” Just then the three Cyber Dragon (2100/1600 X 3) monster cards are removed from Zane's graveyard, Zane takes a fusion monster card from his fusion deck, and he cries out, when he puts the card on his duel disk, “Arise, again, Cyber End Dragon!” Just then Cyber End Dragon (4000/2800) returns to the field in attack mode and Zane calls out, with a dark sly smile, “And thanks to Power Bond, its power is double!” Just then Cyber End Dragon's stats rise from 4000/2800 to 8000/2800!

 

Kuwabara calls out, stunned, “That's not good! He has more than enough power to wipe Tsukino right off the mat!”

 

Amara says, drolly, “We can see that.”

 

Zane yells out, with a dark sly smile, “Time to end this duel, Serena! Cyber End Dragon, Super Strident Blast!” Cyber End Dragon fires a beam of blue energy from its three heads and it heads for Terra Firma. Serena quickly pushes a button on her duel disk as the attack strikes causing Terra Firma to explode from the explosion.

 

Darien and Rini yells out in unison, shocked, “Serena!”

 

Mina says, stunned, “She lost!”

 

Zane says, with a dark smile, “Well, you lose.” However, the smoke and dust from the explosion clear to reveal Serena had only lose 550 life-points instead of 5500 life-points while a face-up Reduction Barrier trap card is on her field.

 

Serena says, with a sly smile, “Sorry, Zane, but this duel isn't over yet. Thanks to my Reduction Barrier trap card, I only ten percent of what I would have lost from your attack.”

 

Zane says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Surprise. However, your other monster isn't so lucky when I play my Fissure spell card. Oh, well.” Just then a large fissure appears below Cold Enchanter and he falls into the fissure destroying it. Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, darkly, “Then I play my Cyber Kirin in attack mode!” Just then Cyber Kirin (300/600) comes to the field in attack mode. Zane says, with a dark smile, “And thanks to its ability, when I sacrifice him, all effect damage becomes zero for this turn! So, my Power Bond damage is gone!” Cyber Kirin fades away while Zane puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a dark smile, “That will do for now.”

 

Current Score:

Serena: 850

Zane: 750

 

Mina says, worriedly, “Oh, man! Serena is in a major pickle now!”

 

Trista says, with a nod, “Indeed. Zane Truesdale has played this match flawlessly and he has dueled very well.”

 

Bastion says, with a serious tone, “You are correct, Trista-sensei. It seems a lot like the old days before his days in his `current persona'.” Bastion then goes into deep thought and focuses on Zane a lot.

 

Serena says, drawing one card, “My move, Zane.” Serena looks at her hand, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and calls out, “I play my Monster Reincarnation! By discarding one card from my hand, I can take back one monster from my grave!” Serena discards one card from her deck, takes out her Rainbow Dragon (4000/0) monster card, and yells out, “And I choose my Rainbow Dragon!” Serena puts another card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I play my Fusion Recovery! This card allows me to bring back a Polymerization and Fusion Material monster from my grave!” Just then Elemental Hero Woodsman (1000/2000) and Polymerization spell card come out of Serena's graveyard and after she puts them into her hand, she says, putting another card into the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Silent Doom! This card allows me to summon back one monster from the grave in defense mode and I choose Neos!” Just then Elemental Hero Neos (2500/2000) come to the field in defense mode. Serena puts the Polymerization spell card into the spell/trap slots and calls out, “Next, I play Polymerization! I fuse my Neos with Rainbow Dragon to form the almighty Rainbow Neos!” Serena discards her Rainbow Dragon monster card, it appears on the field, and goes into a fusion vortex with Neos while Serena gets a fusion monster card from her fusion deck. Serena puts then card on her duel disk and Rainbow Neos (4500/3000) appears on the field in attack mode with a large swirl of wind coming from it. Serena puts one card on her duel disk and calls out, with a serious tone, “Next, I play Hero Woodsman in attack mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Woodsman (1000/2000) comes back to the field in attack mode. Serena calls out, strongly, “Then I play Rainbow Neos' ability! By sacrificing one monster on my side of the field, all of your monsters have to take a hike back to your deck!” Elemental Hero Woodsman vanishes from the field.

 

Zane pushes a button on his duel disk and yells out, strongly, “I don't think so! I play Effect Shut!” Just then Zane's face-down card is revealed to be a Quick-Play Spell card with a picture of an explosion inside of cage and Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “This activate when you play an Effect monster's special ability and it negates and destroys it!”

 

Serena calls out, stunned, “No!” Just then Rainbow Neos gives a groan as it shatters apart.

 

Jasmine yells out, shocked, “That's Serena's best monster!”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “Not bad.”

 

Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “Glad that you like it.”

 

Serena says, with a serious tone, “Before we continue on, you are quite different than you were before. I know that something changed with you.”

 

Zane says, with a dark smile, “Since you are so interested, I did change a bit. You see, I realized something. I had the money, the power, and the glory, but the excitement that I felt in duels is long gone. I've crushed every single opponent and I never enjoyed any of those duels. I needed an opponent that can make the duel a lot more fun and I know that you are one of those duels. And I'm joining to enjoy this duel to the last life-point and last card.”

 

Plenty of our heroes and heroines are surprised and Syrus thinks in his mind, shocked, “Zane is actually enjoying dueling again? He has changed! Not completely, but he is somewhat back to his old self!”

 

Alexis says, amazed, “That's a shock.”

 

Bastion says, with a nod, “Indeed. And I can see the truth of his words. Zane has changed at least somewhat back into his `old self'.”

 

Serena says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, if you are enjoying duels, again, you will like this one! I play my Quick-Summon spell card! This card allows me to summon a new monster! And I choose my Elemental Hero Neos Alius in attack mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Neos Alius (1900/1300), a child-like version of Elemental Hero Neos, comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Zane asks, perplexed, “What is that?”

 

Serena says, with a sly smile, “This is a special breed of monster known as a Gemini monster. It is treated as Normal monster while on the field or in the grave, but when I activate his ability, which counts as a Normal summon, it becomes an effect monster with a strong special ability.” Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and calls out, “However, I will get to that after I play my Dark Spell Regeneration! This card allows me to play one spell card in the grave this turn and I choose your Card of Sanctity! So, we both draw until we have six cards!” Serena and Zane draw from their decks until they have six cards in their hands, Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and yells out, “Next, I play my Super Double Summon spell card! With this card, I can choose one Gemini monster and `Normal Summon' it to activate its special ability! And I choose my Neos Alius! And its' ability allows him to be counted as Elemental Hero Neos as long as he is on the field!” Serena puts one more card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Next, I play my Double Summon spell card! This card allows me to Normal Summon again this turn!” Serena puts one card on her duel disk and yells out, “And I choose to summon Elemental Hero Prisma in attack mode!” Just then Elemental Hero Prisma (1700/1100) appears on the field in attack mode. Serena then exclaims, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Hero Draw! With this card, for every hero on the field, I get two cards from my deck! Since I have two, I get four more cards!” Serena draws four more cards from her deck and she yells out, putting another spell card into the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Feather of a Phoenix! With this card, by sending one card from hand to the grave, I can put one card in my grave on the top of my deck!” Serena discards one card from her hand, takes one card from her grave, and puts it on the top of her deck. Serena then exclaims, with a strong tone, “Now, I activate the power of my Prisma! By discarding one Fusion Material monster from my deck to my grave, Prisma can become that monster for this turn!” Serena discards the top card, Rainbow Dragon (4000/0) monster card, from her deck to the graveyard and she calls out, “And I choose for him to become my Rainbow Dragon!” Just then Prisma glows brightly as he transforms into Rainbow Dragon and she says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play Polymerization to fuse them together to revive Rainbow Neos!” The two monsters combine in a fusion vortex and when Serena puts the fusion monster card on her duel disk causing Rainbow Neos (4500/3000) to return to the field in attack mode.

 

Zane says, with a dark serious tone, “Well, he can't take on my Cyber End Dragon!”

 

Serena puts one card in the spell/trap slots and she yells out, “Not when I play my Pump Up spell card! This card will double Rainbow Neos' power for this turn!” Rainbow Neos' stats rise from 4500/3000 to 9000/3000! Serena yells out, strongly, “Rainbow Neos, attack his Cyber End Dragon with Rainbow Radiance!” Rainbow Neos prepares to fire beam of rainbow energy at Cyber End Dragon.

 

Zane pushes a button on his duel disk and yells out, strongly and darkly, “I don't think so! I play Limiter Removal!” Just then Zane's other face-down card is revealed to be the Limiter Removal Quick-Play spell card and Zane shouts out, with a dark sly smile, “And thank to this card, Cyber End Dragon's power is doubled!” Cyber End Dragon's roars out as it stats rise from 8000/2800 to 16,000/2800 causing it to fire back at Rainbow Neos! Zane says, with a dark sly smile, “Game move!”

 

Serena pushes a button on her duel disk and shouts out, with a smile, “For you. I play my final face-down card: Battle Fusion!” Serena's face-down card is revealed to be the Battle Fusion Quick-Play spell card and she says, with a smile, “Sorry, Zane, but this card gives my monster the power of your Cyber End Dragon since this is a battle.” Zane and everyone gasps in shock as Rainbow Neos' stats rise from 9000/3000 to 25,000/3000! Rainbow Neos' powerful beam of rainbow energy pushes back Cyber End Dragon's attack and slams into Cyber End Dragon, destroying it, and causing Zane to lose 9000 life-points, ending the duel.

Serena: 850

Yusuke calls out, excitedly, “Way to go!”

 

Jaden exclaims, happily, “Sweet duel, Serena!”

 

On the meanwhile, Serena tells Zane, with a sly smile, “That was a really nice duel. You really put me through the ringer. However, I think that you should stop with the whole `Hell Kaiser' persona. It is just too . . . harsh.”

 

Zane stands up and he says, with a dark plain tone, “That's your opinion, Serena.” Zane says, with a dark sly tone, “However, I really did enjoy that duel. Only a few people have given the excitement of a duel and Jaden is the only other one than you. So, be proud of your victory because you and I will meet again. And on that day, I plan to win.”

 

Serena says, with a sly grin, “Until then Zane-san!” Zane then gives a nod and he walks down from the podium while Serena does the same.

 

Hikari thinks in her mind, with a warm smile, “Zane-kun, I'm so proud of you!”

 

Chancellor Sheppard steps onto the platform and yells out through the microphone, “What an amazing upset! Zane Truesdale, our top graduate from last year and top pro duelist has lost to our first-year Princess of Obelisk Blue! I would like to say well done to both duelists! However, now, it is time for the second match!

Since I have Red-Eyes on the field, you take damage equal to his attack power, but I can't attack you this turn!” Red-Eyes Black Dragon fires a sphere of dark flame energy into Jaden and he yelps out as he loses 2400 life-points. Kagome puts one card on her duel disk and yells out, “Next, I sacrifice my Red-Eyes Black Dragon to summon my Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon!” Red-Eyes Black Dragon vanishes from the field in dark flames and those dark flames turn into Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon (2400/2000) in attack mode.

Jaden says, with a nod, “Thanks, Kagome. I hope we duel again like we did in the old days.”

 

Kagome says, with a sly smile, “Count on it.”

Yusuke tells Hikari, with a nod, “That's right! My Montage Dragon's attack points are equal three hundred attack points times the combined level of the three monsters that I just sent to the graveyard.

Kuwabara says, stunned, “Wow! Urameshi can actually add!”

 

Keiko says, with a nervous smile, “Well, it is more like multiple Kuwabara.”

Amara says, plainly, “Don't count on it!” Just then the smoke and dust clear to see Hikari still standing with her life-points unchanged and a face-up Nutrient Z trap card along with a sly grin on her face.

 

Hikari says, with a sly smile, “Nice try, Yusuke. But before your attack hit, I play my Nutrient Z trap card. Since your attack could take out over two thousand of my life-points, my Nutrient Z trap card activated to help me. Now, I gain four thousand life-points before your attack damaged me.” Hikari's life-points increase by 4000 points and then decreased by 5650 points and Hikari says, with a sly smile, “I figured that you would go for a one turn kill, but I was ready for you.”

 

Yusuke says, with a sly smile while putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Well, you can't win them all! I'll end my turn with this!”

Cyber End Dragon!” Just then the three Cyber Dragons appears on the field, go into a fusion vortex, and when Hikari puts the fusion monster card on her duel disk, Cyber End Dragon (4000/2800) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Yusuke says, with a sly grin, “Sorry, Kari, but your dragon is no where close to beating mine!”

 

Hikari puts one card in the spell/trap slots and she says, “That's why I play my Riryoku spell card! This takes away half of your dragon's attack points and gives them to my Cyber End Dragon!” Yusuke gasps in shock as his Montage Dragon's stats reduce from 7200/0 to 3600/0 while Cyber End Dragon's stats rise from 4000/2800 to 7600/0!

By discarding one card from my hand, I can play one trap card from it!” Hikari discards her Vampire Lord (2000/1500) monster card and she says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “And I choose my Damage Polarizer trap card!” Just then the hologram of the Damage Polarizer counter-trap card and Hikari says, with a sly smile, “When a card effect inflicts damage to my life-points, this card negates it!” Just then the redirected attack is negated with a shield in front of Hikari and when it is done, Hikari says, with a plain tone, “Now, both of us must draw one card.” Hikari and Yusuke draw one card from their decks and she says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Then I play my Cyber Phoenix in defense mode!” Just then Cyber Phoenix (1200/1600) comes to the field in defense mode.

So, I remove my three Blue-Eyes White Dragons from play!” Just then the three named cards come out of Yusuke's deck, in which he puts them in his pocket, takes a fusion monster from his fusion deck, and he puts fusion monster card on his duel disk as he declares, “Now, I call my Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon to field!” Just then Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon (4500/3800) comes to the field in attack mode.

I can play my Cyber Shock trap card!” Hikari's face-down card is revealed to be a trap card that shows a monster getting shocked by the remains of a Cyber Dragon that was recently destroyed. Hikari says, with a sly smile, “Thanks to this card, when you destroy a machine-type monster with Cyber in its name, you lose life-points equal to my destroyed monster's attack points!” Just then Hikari's trap card fires a beam of electrical energy at Yusuke and he yelps as it hits him causing him to lose 4000 life-points.

 

Yusuke puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, plainly, “I'll end my turn with this card face-down!”

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, “Sorry, sis, but your little fanged freak is nothing to my Ultimate Dragon!”

 

Hikari says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Wrong, Yusuke! I play my De-Fusion spell card! This card returns one fusion monster to your fusion deck and summons all of its Fusion Material monsters in your grave back to the field, but since I removed one of your Blue-Eyes, your dragon is history!” Yusuke gasps in shock as his Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon vanishes as it is returned to his fusion monster deck.

 

Bastion says, with a nod, “Brilliant move! Hikari removed one of Yusuke's Blue-Eyes to bring back her own monster so when she plays De-Fusion, with one Blue-Eyes gone, he can't bring back his dragon since the De-Fusion card requires the Fusion Material monsters on the card to be in Yusuke's graveyard to be summoned.”

 

Zane thinks in his mind, with a dark sly smile, “Heh. I'm not surprised. Hikari knows Yusuke's deck and plus, her dueling skills rival pros!”

 

Hikari calls out, with a smile, “Vampire Lord, attack Yusuke directly!” Just then Vampire Lord unleashes a horde of bats at Yusuke and he yelps as they hit him directly causing him to lose 2000 life-points.

And I declare that you sent a monster card!” Yusuke growls as he takes out his deck, takes one card from it, puts his deck back in his duel disk, and discards his Luster Dragon #2 (2400/1500) monster card to the graveyard.

Trista says, with a plain tone, “Both of them are `Chosen Duelists' so you would expect this to be close since both of them can draw the card that they need at a vital time.”

 

Yusuke takes a deep breath, draws one card, and when he looks at it, he says, with a wide sly grin, “Hey, sis. You played an awesome duel. However, this duel is about to end right now.” Hikari gives a perplexed look as Yusuke puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a sly smile, “I play Soul Release! This card allows me to remove up to five cards from our graveyards and I choose my two remaining Blue-Eyes White Dragons!” The two named cards come out of Yusuke's graveyard and Yusuke says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Yeah, you must be thinking: What is he thinking?

Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil sly smile, “Well, it looks like it is just what I predicted to be.”

 

Aster says, with a snarl, “Yeah, right.”

As our heroes and heroines look on, Keiko says, plainly, “This is it.”

 

Rei thinks in her mind, with a serious tone, “You better well win this fight Phoenix!”

 

Aster draws one card from his deck and says, “If you don't mind, I'll go first!” Aster puts one card on his duel disk and says, “I'll start with this! A Destiny Hero! Diamond Dude, you're on!” Soon after, Destiny Hero-Diamond Dude (1400/1600) comes to the field in defense mode. Aster then says, “Next, I'll play his effect! I flip over the top card of my deck and if it is a Normal Spell, then it is mine!” Aster draws the top card from his deck, displays his Destiny Draw spell card, discards it to his graveyard, and says, while putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “It's Destiny Draw! So, I'll store it in my graveyard and place this face-down!”

 

Sartorius draws one card from his deck and he says, “As you wish.” Sartorius puts one card on his duel disk and says, “I'll start with this! Arcana Force Seven also known as The Chariot!” Just then Arcana Force VII-The Chariot (1700/1700) comes to the field in attack mode, the image of the card appears above the monster's head, and starts to rotate. Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil sly grin, “The position of the card will determine its special ability and all you have to do is tell it to stop, but destiny has already decided where the card will stop and it will stop right side up! However, see for yourself.”

 

Aster yells out, annoyed, “Fine! Stop!” The card slows down and instantly stops exactly on the upright position causing Aster to gasp in shock.

 

Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil sly grin, “Why do you seem so surprised? I told you destiny is in control, not you.” Sartorius then calls out, “Now, Chariot, offer Diamond Dude a lesson in firepower! Master Blast!” The Chariot fires an energy beam at Diamond Dude and destroys Aster's monster, but since it was in defense mode, Aster's life-points are safe.

 

Aster pushes a button his duel disk and says, “Sorry, pal, but I play my face-down: Destiny Signal!” Aster's face-down card is revealed to be the Destiny Signal trap card and Aster says, with a serious tone, “Since you've destroyed one of my monsters, I get to summon a new one from my deck as long as it is a Destiny Hero with four stars or less!” Aster then goes through his deck, takes out a card, returns his deck to his duel disk, and calls out, putting the one card on his duel disk, “And I choose my Destiny Hero-Defender!” Just then Destiny Hero-Defender (100/2700) appears on the field in defense mode.

 

Sartorius says, with an evil smile, “That's nice Aster. Now, if you allow me to continue, since The Chariot is right side up, I can re-summon your Diamond Dude as my own!” Soon after, Destiny Hero-Diamond Dude (1400/1600) comes to Sartorius' side of the field in attack mode. Aster gives a snarl, Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and says, “I'll conclude with one card face-down on the field.”

 

Aster draws one card from his deck and says, discarding his Destiny Hero-Malicious (800/800) monster card to the graveyard, “Don't forget that now I can play my Destiny Draw that I discarded one turn ago, thanks to my Diamond Dude's effect. So, I discard one Destiny Hero and draw two more cards!” Aster draws two more cards, Aster removes the same monster card that he discarded from his graveyard, a card comes out of his deck, and he says, putting the card on his duel disk, “Next, I'll remove the card that I sent to my graveyard, my Malicious, from play to summon another one from my deck!” Just then another Destiny Hero-Malicious (800/800) comes to the field in attack mode. Aster puts one card on his duel disk and yells out, “Next, I'll sacrifice my Malicious to summon Destiny Hero-Dasher!” Malicious vanishes from the field and Destiny Hero-Dasher (2100/1000) appears on the field in attack mode. Aster calls out, “Dasher, destroy his Chariot with Pyrokinetic Shock!” Dasher rushes in causing sparks to form on its wheels from the friction that it is creating and it slams into The Chariot causing a large explosion and Sartorius to lose 400 life-points, but the villain doesn't lose his evil grin.

 

Sartorius says, with a sinister evil smile, “Not bad, Aster. You've managed to make contact. Barely, but next time, you might make a dent. If there is a next however.”

 

Destiny Hero-Dasher switches from attack mode to defense mode from its effect, Aster puts two cards in the spell/trap slots, and says, “Your mind games won't work on me. I place two cards face-down and I call it a turn.”

 

Current Score:

Sartorius: 3600

Aster: 4000

 

Sartorius draws one card from his deck and says, “Unless you have forgotten the ability of your monsters', since Defender is in face-up defense mode, I get to draw one more card from my deck.” Aster nods his head in agreement, Sartorius draws one more card from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and says, “Next, I play Pot of Greed! This card allows me to draw two more cards from my deck! It is time to see what destiny has given me.” Sartorius draws two more cards from his deck and says, putting one card on his duel disk, “Ah! Interesting! I sacrifice my Diamond Dude to summon Arcana Force Twelve also known as The Hangman!” Diamond Dude vanishes and Arcana Force XII-The Hangman (2200/2200) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Back with the rest of our heroes and heroines, Syrus asks, curiously, “Is that the card that Sartorius beat you with?”

 

Chazz yells out, annoyed, “Don't remind me!”

 

Syrus winces in shock and Syrus says, a bit annoyed, “Okay.” Back to the duel, the image of the card appears above the head of the monster and starts rotating.

 

Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil smile, “Go ahead, Aster. But this card will land in the way that it benefits me.”

 

Aster exclaims, annoyed, “Can you be anymore annoying?!” After a few minutes, Aster yells out, “Stop!” The card slows down and then it stops in the upside down position.

 

Jaden says, with a smile, “It's upside down! That's good!”

 

Sartorius calls out, with an evil smile, “Wrong! When The Hangman is upside down, one monster on Aster's field is destroyed and he lose life-points equal to that monster's attack points!”

 

Aster yells out, flabbergasted, “You've got to be kidding me!”

 

Sartorius exclaims, with an evil smile, “Does this look like a joke?!” Just then Aster's Dasher is destroyed and he yells out in shock as he loses 2100 life-points. Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Sartorius says, putting a card in the spell/trap slots, “But I'm far from finished! I play my Quick-Summon! Now, I can summon another monster!” Sartorius puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, “Come forth, Arcana Forth Four-The Emperor!” Just then Arcana Force IV-The Emperor (1400/1400) comes to the field in attack mode and the card's image appears above the monster's head as it starts to rotate. Sartorius tells Aster, evilly, “Go on. You know what to do, Aster.”

 

Aster yells out, annoyed, “Yeah! Yeah! I know!” Aster takes a minute and he calls out, “Stop!” When the card stops rotating, the card lands on the right side up position.

 

Yusuke yells out, stunned, “What?! You've got to be kidding me!”

 

Sartorius laughs evilly and says, “Well, what do you know? Another card lands right side up and due to the Emperor's effect, all Arcana Force monsters get stronger by five hundred more attack points!” The Hangman's stats rise from 2200/2200 to 2700/2200 while The Emperor's stats rise from 1400/1400 to 1900/1400! Sartorius puts another card in the spell/trap slots and says, “I'm not done, yet! I play another spell known as Knight of Swords!” Just then a spell card with an image of a knight surrounded by multiple swords comes to the field and starts to rotate like Sartorius' Arcana Force monsters.

 

When Sartorius doesn't say a word, Aster yells out, with a very annoyed tone, “Okay, stop!” After a short while, the card stops on the right side up position, much to everyone's shock.

 

Sartorius says, with an evil sly tone, “Well, another card lands right side up. Who could have predicted that? Oh, wait! Me! Now, thanks to this card's effect, my monsters gain five hundred more attack points for this turn!” The Hangman's stats rise from 2700/2200 to 3200/2200 and The Emperor's stats rise from 1900/1400 to 2400/1400!

 

Aster says, with a droll tone, “Just great.”

 

Sartorius yells out, “Arcana Force Twelve, destroy his Defender!” The Hangman extends his tentacles out until they wrap Aster's Defender and crushes it, but since it was in defense mode, Aster doesn't lose any life-points. Sartorius declares, with an evil smile, “Now, my Emperor, attack Aster directly!” Arcana Force IV moves in to attack Aster directly.

 

Jaden, Rei, and Serena yell out in unison, stunned, “Aster!”

 

Aster pushes a button on his duel disk and calls out, seriously, “You've just triggered my trap: D-Fortune!” Just then Aster's face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of spirit of Diamond Dude coming out from his feet and he says, “Since you attacked me directly, this trap activated! Now, by removing one Destiny Hero from my grave, your attack is cancelled!” Aster removes his Destiny Hero-Defender from his graveyard and The Emperor's attack is negated.

 

Sartorius says, with an evil smile while putting one card in the spell/trap slots, “Fine! Next, I play my King of Coins!” Just then a spell card with a golden king's crown surrounded by golden coins appears and the card immediately starts rotating causing Sartorius to say to Aster, evilly, “This might seem familiar to you, Aster, but to let you know, this card will land right side up.”

 

Aster exclaims, in a very serious tone, “Oh, yeah?! Stop!” The card slows down, it seems to end up in the upside down position, but it ends stopping right side up. Aster yells out, annoyed, “This is getting annoying!”

 

Sartorius tells Aster, with a sinister evil smile, “I told you, Aster: It is your destiny to lose! Moving on, because this card landed right side up, I get to draw from my deck until I have six cards!” Sartorius then draws cards until he has six cards in his hand, Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and says, “Now, I place this card face-down and it is your turn to take a shot.” The Hangman's stats go back down from 3200/2200 to 2700/2200 while The Emperor goes down from 2400/1400 to 1900/1400.

Aster's Field Spell slot opens, he puts a card in the slot, and he says, with a sly smile, “Who said that I was finished? It is time for a chain with my Dark City Field Spell!” When the Field Spell slot closes, a huge city made of buildings that seemly comes out an old action comic or made of cardboard will a full moon and dark blue clear, star-filled skies surrounds the two duelists. Aster says, with a sly grin, “Now, if my heroes are weaker than your monsters, they gain one thousand extra attack points!” Double Dude's stats rise from 1500/1000 to 2500/1000, thanks to Dark City, he transforms from his dressed up form into a version of Mr. Hyde, and immediately attacks The Emperor with the chain, destroying him, and costing Sartorius 600 life-points. Aster says, with a sly grin, “But wait! There's more! When a monster equipped with D-Chain destroys a monster in battle, you lose an extra five hundred life-points!” Double Dude launches the chain right at Sartorius, he grunts as it slams into him, and he loses 500 more life-points while The Hangman's stats reduced back down from 2700/2200 to 2200/2200. Aster calls out, strongly, “By the way, lest you forget, my Double Dude has a double attack, so, your Hangman is gone!” Double Dude returns to his original `gentlemen form' and slams the chain into The Hangman, costing Sartorius another 300 life-points. Aster says, with a wide smile, “And now, my D-Chain takes another five hundred life-points from your score!” Sartorius grunts as he loses 500 more life-points when Double Dude slams the D-Chain directly into him.

 

Kuwabara yells out, excitedly, “Wow! He actually did it!”

 

Mindy says, awe-struck, “He turned this duel around!”

 

Kurama says, with a serious tone, “The duel might be in Aster's favor, but the duel is far from done. It isn't over until a winner is decided.”

 

Current Score:

Sartorius: 1900

Aster: 1700

 

Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil smile, “Well done, Aster. I've got to say that I'm impressed.” Sartorius draws one card from his deck and says, evilly, “However, even you can't stop destiny, so, watch and learn!” Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and says, “Now, I play Pentacle of Ace!” The hologram of the Pentacle of Ace spell card appears on the field and Sartorius says, with an evil smile as the card spins around, “Well, you get the idea, Aster.”

 

Aster yells, annoyed, “I know! Stop!” As before, when the card stops, it is in the upright position.

 

Sartorius says, with a sly evil grin, “What do you know? Right side up. Now, I draw one more card from my deck and I gain five hundred life-points!” Sartorius draws one card from his deck and his life-points increase by 500 more points. Sartorius then puts another card in the spell/trap slots and says, “Next, I play Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Dark City!” Just then a huge wind comes to the field and Aster's Dark City is destroyed.

 

Aster exclaims, annoyed, “Oh, great!”

 

Sartorius puts another card in the spell/trap slots and says, “Next, I play my Necro Sacrifice spell card! Now, I can put two monsters from my graveyard on your side of the field! Then I can summon any high-level monster in my hand based on the number of monsters that I gave to you! So, I think I'll give you my Emperor and Chariot!” Just then two lights shoot out of Sartorius' graveyard and they go to Aster's side of the field becoming Arcana Force VII-The Chariot and Arcana Force IV-The Emperor (1400/1400) and Sartorius says, with an evil smile, “Now, choose their modes!”

 

Aster says, seriously, “And I choose defense mode!” Both monsters then go into defense mode and the card images appear above their heads before spinning.

 

Sartorius says, with an evil sly tone, “How boring, but I'm not surprised. Even without my ability to foresee destiny, I knew that you would do that. Now, it is my turn to move to wheel of fate along.” Sartorius then says, with an evil smile, “Stop! Right there in your upside down positions!” Soon after, both cards land upside down just as Sartorius predicted.

 

Aster yells out, shocked, “You've got to be kidding me!”

 

Sartorius then says, with an evil smile, “I'll say this again, Aster: This duel has already been played out and your destiny has been determined. Now, moving on, since the Chariot is upside down, when I destroy it in battle, it will be re-summoned to my side of the field and since The Emperor is upside down, your new monsters lose five hundred attack points.” The Emperor's stats reduce down from 1400/1400 to 900/1400 and The Chariot's stats reduce down from 1700/1700 to 1200/1700. Sartorius then puts one card on his duel disk and says, smiling evilly, “And now, Aster, it is time for you to meet the newest member of my team! Arcana Force Fifteen-The Fiend!” Just then Arcana Force XV-The Field (2500/2500), a misshaped dark red creature with multiple hook-like tentacles, comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Mina says, grossed-out, “Yuck! Ugly!”

 

Aster gasps in shock and thinks, “That card representing the evil that possesses Sartorius: The Light of Destruction! Maybe if I beat, I'll win!” When the card appears above the monster's head and rotates, Aster waits a minute until he declares it to stop in which it lands right side up. Aster yells, angrily, “What?!”

 

Sartorius says, with an evil smile, “I told you that you could stop destiny, Aster! Fiend, attack his Double Dude!” Just then The Fiend attacks Double Dude, destroying it, and costing Aster 1000 life-points, but then The Chariot explodes causing Aster and everyone else to gasp in shock. Sartorius states, with wide evil grin, “Oops. I failed to mention that when my Fiend destroys a monster in battle, another monster is destroyed and the owner loses five hundred life-points!” Just then The Fiend's hooked tentacle slams into Aster, knocking him off his feet, and he slams into the ground, temporary stunned, while losing 500 more life-points. Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and says, “I'll place this face-down and defer to you.”

 

Current Score:

Sartorius: 2200

Aster manages to get to a kneeling position, but he breathes heavily and doesn't move causing the audience to wonder if he can continue this duel.

 

Hikari yells out, annoyed, “You had better not give up on us Phoenix!”

 

Rei calls out, in a serious and strong tone, “Hikari's right, Phoenix! Did you forget that you promised to save your friend from the evil possessing him and you assured us that you can do this! Now, get up and show this freak what you are made of! Or do I have to kick you up from your butt myself?!”

 

Lita says, nervously, “Nice pep talk, Rei.”

 

However, Aster moans as he gets to his feet and he thinks, with a serious tone, “Rei is right! I can't give up! I made a promise to Sartorius and I won't go back on my word! I've got to stop this body-snatching and brainwashing freak here and now! But even through I want to fight, I can barely stand up! I'm not sure if I have the strength left to fight!”

 

Just then a familiar kind and gentle male voice says in Aster's mind, “Perhaps, I can help, my friend.” Aster gives a gasp of surprise since he knows that voice.

 

Sartorius yells out, with an evil smile, “Don't bother with that, Miss Hino! His friend is long gone and I'm here to say!”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Wrong! I'm here right!” When Sartorius looks at Aster, he gasps in shock to see that Aster's left side is his usual expression with the right side has a solemn and gentle expression with an image of the real Sartorius behind Aster.

 

Sartorius calls out, shocked, “No! You're gone!”

 

Aster yells out, drawing a card from his deck and his voice a duel of Aster's voice and the real Sartorius' voice, “Guess again! Since Double Dude is in the graveyard, I get two Double Dude tokens to take their place!” Just then two Double Dude Tokens (1000/1000 X 2) comes to the field in attack mode. Aster puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, “I play my Pot of Greed and get two more cards from my deck!” Aster draws two more cards from his deck, puts one card on his duel disk, and yells out, “Then I summon one of them to summon my third Destiny Hero-Malicious in attack mode!” Just then one of the Double Dude tokens vanishes and Destiny Hero-Malicious (800/800) comes to the field in attack mode. Aster puts one more card on his duel disk and yells out, “And now, I sacrifice all three monsters to summon my Destiny Hero-Dogma!” All three monsters vanish from Aster's side of the field and Destiny Hero-Dogma (3400/2400) comes to the field in attack mode. Aster yells out, in his duel voice, “Dogma, get rid of his Fiend!” Just then Dogma rushes in, destroys `Evil Sartorius' monster, and costing the evil force within Sartorius 900 life-points. Aster puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, “I end with this card face-down!”

Aster wipes the tear from his right eye and he says, mentally, “Thank you, old friend.”

 

The real Sartorius replies, mentally, “It is nothing, Aster. It is the least I can do for all the pain and trouble that the Light has caused and the others while in my body.”

 

Aster tells the real Sartorius, who soul is in his body, “Don't blame yourself, Sartorius. That freak used you pain and sorrow against you to create that evil side of you and take over your body! But don't worry, I will get it back!”

 

Kuwabara says, perplexed, “I'm lost.”

 

Hiei says, plainly, “So, what else is new fool? You are always lost!”

 

Kuwabara yells out, angrily, “I'm really getting sick of you!”

 

Ami asks Rei, “What is going there Rei?”

 

Rei says, with a serious tone, “It seems like the spirit of the real Sartorius came to Aster and he is giving him the strength to win.” Plenty of our heroes and heroines give silent gasps in shock.

 

Evil Sartorius draws a card from his deck and yells out, angrily, “Nice move! Too bad that it will be your last!”

 

Aster yells out, strongly, “Wrong, pal! Since it is your Standby Phase, Dogma's ability activates and you lose half of your life-points right now!” Evil Sartorius yelps out as Dogma's ability cut his life-points in half and Aster states, with a sly smile, “Well, it looks destiny isn't on your back after all!”

 

Evil Sartorius replies, strongly, “You shall see you are wrong, Aster!” Evil Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “I play Cup of Ace!” The spell card appears on the field and rotates, but when Aster tells it to stop, it lands right side up. Evil Sartorius says, with an evil smile, “Since it is right side up, I get two more cards!” Evil Sartorius draws two more cards from his deck, puts one card in the spell/trap slots, and declares, “Next, it is time for my Reserve Reborn! I can summon one Arcana Force monster from my grave and summon it back to the field, but it has its upside down ability! So, it is time to welcome my Fiend back!” Just then Arcana Force XV-The Fiend (2500/2500) return to the field in attack mode. Evil Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, “Next, I play my Block Attack spell card and switch your monster to defense mode!” Dogma switches from attack to defense mode and Evil Sartorius says, with evil grin, “And when my Fiend attacks, all monsters on the field are destroyed!” Aster gasps in shock as The Fiend rushes in, grabs Dogma, and both monsters are destroyed.

 

Yusuke says, plainly, “That's not good.”

 

Evil Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Then I play my Queen of Hearts spell!” Just then a hologram of a spell card with a picture of a Queen with a red heart on her crown with Arcana Force monsters in her hands appears on the field and Evil Sartorius says, getting out his deck, “By sending a number of Arcana Force monsters from my deck to the graveyard, I can summon one with equal or less stars from my hand!” Sartorius takes out two cards from his deck, puts his deck back, discards his Arcana Force VIII-The Strength (1800/1800) and Arcana Force VI-The Lovers (1600/1600) monster cards to the graveyard, and he says, putting one card on his duel disk, “So, now, I send my Strength and Lovers to the graveyard to summon my Arcana Force Twenty One-The World!” Just then a huge flash comes over the field and Arcana Force XXI-The World (3100/3100), a huge alien-like monster, comes to the field in attack mode and the image of the cards appears over the monster's head and starts to rotate.

 

Amara and Michelle gasp in shock and Trista asks, curiously, “What is it?”

 

Michelle says, nervously, “That's the monster that he used to beat me and Amara with.”

 

Alexis says, nervously, “That's not good at all.” On the meanwhile, the image of the card lands on the right side up position when Aster calls it to stop and he gives a growl of annoyance.

 

Evil Sartorius tells Aster, with an evil smile, “Well, Aster, it's too bad for you, but the good news is that my spell has a drawback! You get one card for every monster that I discarded from my deck and this monster can't attack this turn!”

 

Aster says, with a sarcastic tone, “Goody for me!” Aster draws two cards from his deck and looks at them.

 

Evil Sartorius puts one card in the spell/trap slots and he says, with an evil sly smile, “I'll end my turn with one card face-down.”

 

Current Score:

Sartorius: 650

Aster: 400

 

Aster draws one card from his deck and calls out, seriously, “Now, I play my Dark Spell Regeneration! This card allows me to use one spell card in the grave for this turn and I choose my Pot of Greed! So, it is time for me to get two more cards!” Aster draws two more cards from his deck, puts one card on his duel disk, and calls out, “Next, I play my D-Spirit spell card! Since I have no heroes on the field, I get one hero from my deck!” A card comes out of Aster's deck and he says, putting the card on his duel disk, “So, I play my Destiny Hero-Dunker!” Just then Destiny Hero-Dunker (1100/1700), a monster that looks like a basketball player, comes to the field in defense mode. Aster discards his Destiny Hero-Disk Commander (300/300) monster card and he says, with a sly smile, “Now, I discard one hero to play my Dunker's ability! The five hundred point strike!” Dunker leaps into the air and launches a sound wave with a kick causing Evil Sartorius to cringe as he loses 500 life-points! Aster puts one card into the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Then I play my Monster Reborn to bring back Destiny Hero-Disk Commander!” Just then Destiny Hero-Disk Commander (300/300) comes to the field in defense mode and Aster says, drawing two more cards, “Since he was summoned from my grave, I get two more cards from my deck!” Aster puts one card in the spell/trap slots and yells out, “Then I play my Doctor-D spell card! By removing one Destiny Hero from my grave, I can summon another level four or below from my grave!” Just then Destiny Hero-Dasher (2100/1000) is removed from Aster's graveyard and he says, “So, I remove my Dasher to bring an old friend that you tried to use against me before! My Diamond Dude!” Just then Destiny Hero-Diamond Dude (1400/1600) comes back to the field in attack mode. Aster puts one card on his duel disk and yells out, “And now, I sacrifice all three of them to summon ultimate monster! The very card that my dad created!” Evil Sartorius gasps in shock as all three monsters vanish from the field and a pool of crimson liquid forms in front of Aster. Aster says, with a serious tone, “Meet my new friend: The unstoppable Destiny Hero-Plasma!” Just then Destiny Hero-Plasma (1900/600) comes to the field in attack mode and Aster says, with a sarcastic tone, “Isn't it ironic? The very card that brought you here will send you back to where you came from!”

 

Evil Sartorius says, with an evil sly grin, “Wrong! That card is nothing, but a shell! This is my new home!”

 

Aster yells out, strongly, “Don't get too comfy! I play Plasma's special ability! Now, it absorbs one monster on the field and gains its special ability as well as half of its attack power! And I choose The World!” Just then Plasma's wings extend out, a huge sucking wind comes over the field, and The World is sucked into Plasma's wings causing its stats to rise from 1900/600 to 3450/600! Aster then place his D-Force spell card on top of his deck and says, with a sly smile, “Then I play another card that belonged to my dad: D-Force! As long as this card remains on the top of my deck, I can't draw anymore cards, but Plasma's ability remains in effect! Now, all of your monster effects, spells, and trap cards are useless against me!”

 

Hikari yells out, shocked, “No way!”

 

Yusuke says, amazed, “Whoa! He brought himself the win!”

 

Serena says, with a nod, “With a card as strong as that, it is no wonder.”

 

Aster asks the real Sartorius, mentally, “Ready, old friend?!”

 

“Ready, Aster!” came the reply of the spirit of the real Sartorius in Aster's mind.

 

Aster calls out, strongly, “Plasma, attack him directly!” Aster then yells out, in his duel voice, “With Vengeful Rain!” Plasma rains down crimson red bolts down at Evil Sartorius.

 

Evil Sartorius displays his Arcana Force XIV-The Temperance (2400/2400) monster card, discards it to his graveyard, and says, with an evil grin, “Your attack has failed, thanks to my Temperance! All I need to do is send him to my graveyard and your Battle Damage is reduced to zero!” The attack slams into Evil Sartorius, but a sickly white energy field protects him.

 

The real Sartorius tells Aster, shocked, “Oh no!”

 

Aster tells the real Sartorius, slyly, “Don't worry, dude! We will get him next time!”

 

Current Score:

Evil Sartorius: 150

Aster: 400

 

Evil Sartorius draws one card from his deck and says, with an evil gleam in his eyes, “It is time for my final move.” Evil Sartorius pushes two buttons on his duel disk and calls out, “Now, I play my face-downs: The trap cards Material Lord and Spiritual Lord!” Evil Sartorius' face-down card are revealed to be two continuous trap cards known as Material Lord and Spiritual Lord, the card holograms create two columns of light, one blue and one red, and Evil Sartorius says, his tone becoming more deeper and evil sounding, “And from my hand, I play Sky Lord!” When Evil Sartorius puts the card in the spell/trap slots, a green column of light appears that surrounds Evil Sartorius as a card comes out of his deck. Evil Sartorius puts the card on his duel disk and yells out, with a deeper and more evil tone, “And now, I sacrifice my three light pillars to summon my most powerful creature: Arcana Force Extra: The Light Ruler!” Just then three light columns combine into one bright sickly white light that forces everyone to cover their eyes and when the light dies down, they look to see Arcana Force EX-The Light Ruler (4000/4000) comes to the field in attack mode.

 

Serena yells out, stunned, “Not that creature, again!” Just then the image of the card appears above the monster's head, rotates, and lands on the right side up position.

 

Just then Jaden looks at Sartorius, yells out in shock, and exclaims, pointing to him, “Look at Sartorius!” When everyone does so, they are horrified to see Sartorius turned into the same mutated state that he was when the Light of Destruction took full control of his body while a powerful sickly white area covering Sartorius' form.

 

Trista says, seriously, “This is not good. That's the form he assumed when the Light of Destruction mutated it to fight our princess and prince.”

 

Evil Sartorius yells out, in his pure evil voice, `Now, Light Ruler, destroy his so-called hero and end this duel! Show Aster the Light with Absolute End!” Just then two dragon heads come out of the Light Ruler's armored back and fire a powerful sickly white light at Aster forcing everyone to cover their eyes.

 

Jaden yells out, horrified, “Aster!” Within the white dome of energy, the Evil Sartorius/Light of Destruction goes over to Aster and the spirit of the real Sartorius standing beside our Destiny Hero duelist.

 

The Light of Destruction tells Aster, with his inhuman evil voice, “I told you that you couldn't escape destiny, Aster!”

 

The real Sartorius tells Aster, solemnly, “I'm so sorry, Aster. I tried my best to help.”

 

Aster tells the real Sartorius, with a smile, “Don't worry, dude, you did your best! Later!”

 

The real Sartorius says, solemnly, “Goodbye.” Just then the spirit of the real Sartorius vanishes while Destiny Hero-Plasma explodes into nothingness while Aster loses 550 life-points, ending the duel.

 

Final Score:

Evil Sartorius: 150

Aster: 0

 

When the done of sickly white energy fades, everyone looks to the dueling to see Evil Sartorius, laughing evilly at his victory as the crowd gasps in horror to see Aster, his hair and skin was white as a ghost.

 

Kuwabara yells out, horrified, “He . . . He is as white as a ghost!”

 

Kagome yells out, horrified, “He lost!”

 

Inuyasha and Melody are witnessing this from the shadows and Melody says, shocked, “Oh, geez! You were kidding about this freak! This evil alien force reeks with chaos and destruction!”

 

Inuyasha says, with a serious tone, “Yeah! No joke, sis! He needs to be stopped!” Inuyasha thinks in his mind, with a serious tone, “But who can stop that kind of evil aura?!”

 

Jaden, Yusuke, Hikari, Kagome, and Serena yell out in unison and horrified, “Aster!”

 

And in one of the rare times of her life, Rei sheds tears of pain from her eyes and cries out, in pure horror, “ASTER!!!” Shortly thereafter, the Destiny Hero duelist falls to his knees as the key he carried falls out of his pocket and to the floor while the evil alien force controlling Sartorius' body gives an evil laugh the whole island can hear in his triumph over one of the `Chosen Duelists', which brings him closer to the domination of Earth and then the universe, which begs to ask the question: Can anyone stop him?

 

Next time in Epilogue: The Road to the Future: After his defeat of Aster, the Light of Destruction, revealed to everyone, takes Aster's key and his unconscious form to gain his powers as `Chosen Duelist' and forces the other `Chosen Duelists' to give up the keys. With support and cards from the other `Chosen Duelists', Jaden and Serena step up to take on this evil alien force in a duel that decide the fate of all! The Moon Twins step up to take the challenge, but the evil alien force has another surprise from them when he creates a copy of himself for a tag-team duel! Now, with the lives of countless begins in the universe and the universe itself on the line, Serena and Jaden take up this deadly challenge to stop the Light of Destruction once and for all! However, even with the Darkness of Salvation on their side, the Light of Destruction has gained powers to render their aid useless! Plus, the Arcana Force cards that the Light of Destruction and his copy weld seem to give him an edge against the Moon Twins in this duel! Just then the evil villain has another surprise when the brainwashed Prince Ojin appears and takes the controls and the keys to activate the satellite. While Serena and Jaden take care of the Light of Destruction in the tag duel, the others try to stop Prince Ojin from activating that satellite, but they are too late! As the countdown to the activation of the satellite draws near, Serena and Jaden turn up their game with powerful tactics and strategies, but in the end, it might be the strength of the `Chosen Duelists' and the cards that Yusuke, Kagome, and Hikari gave them along with Elemental Hero Neos that could prove the way to final victory! Can Serena, Jaden, and the other three `Chosen Duelists' save the universe from the evil of the Light of Destruction? You will find out the answer and much more in the conclusion of Darkness Moon coming up!

 

Well, this is the second to last chapter of my story and I'm thankful for all those that supported me. First of all, if you want to know, I removed the spell from Hikari and Zane because when I looked over that idea, I was pretty `annoyed' by it myself and I considered it a failure. So, I wanted to `make up' for that idea, even just for a bit, by doing what I did in this chapter. For now on, the only `harem' type stuff that will appear in my stories, if they ever come out at all, which I'm considering getting rid of, is in Naruto universe stories. Next, plenty of you might notice that I took a Sailor Moon one-shot story out of my account. Well, to be honest, I got real sick of that idea and for now, I'm going to try to never do a `dark' story like that one ever again. Finally, I would like to say that I have some real bad news. My father got the `pink slip' by his boss in the US department of labor and he will be leaving within the next few weeks. But my father got illegally, in my opinion, `canned' because my dad's boss had problems with my father and his boss used a bad excuse to get him `canned'. My dad will fight back and try to get his job back. His case is good against his boss is good, but it might take sometime for him to get his job back. And with this `problem', I have to get a job right away and within the next month, my family will have to cancel their internet connection. I hope that you will pray for us and hopefully, if the internet has to be canceled, it will only be a temporary thing. I will try to get the final chapter of this story and at least one to two more chapters of `Twilight Wars' out before then. Hopefully, I will see you, again! Until then, later and best wishes, Crossover, Dueling, and Moon fans!
