Shadow Spirit's Curse

By Ulrich362

Luna, Luna can you here me? I need to speak with you. It concerns the Spirit World.

"Regulus, hold on, I'll be right there." Luna said before turning to Leo. "Leo I need to go to the Spirit World, something bad might be happening."

"Alright Luna, if anyone can help the spirits I know you can." Leo said.

"Thanks Leo." Luna said before disappearing in a flash of light.

"Regulus, you did a wonderful job, now as per your arrangement with the boss, the Ancient Fairy Dragon can go free, we have our real target already." said a dark figure. "Soon the Spirit World will belong to us."

"You underestimate Luna, she isn't going to be defeated by you so easily." Regulus said angrily. "Now release the Ancient Fairy Dragon as you promised."

"Of course, although I never said anything about your freedom." the figure said before a black orb surrounded Regulus. "Well Ancient Fairy Dragon you can go free."

"Regulus, I promise you and the rest of the spirits will be saved." Ancient Fairy Dragon said before flying off.

"Hello? Who may I ask is calling?" Leo asked as he picked up the ringing phone.

"Hey Leo, it's me Crow, what do you and Luna say to stopping by, we have a little surprise for you two." Crow said.

"Wow, that's awesome, but I'll get Luna's she can't come over now." Leo said.

"Is everything alright Leo?" Crow asked nervously. "Luna is ok right?"

"She'll be ok, she just went to help the spirits." Leo said when he suddenly felt a subtle sense of nervousness. "I'll be right over."

"Alright, see you soon Leo." Crow said hanging up the phone.

"Ancient Fairy Dragon, is everything alright? Regulus said something was happening to the Spirit World." Luna said as the dragon flew towards her.

"Luna, child you must run, there is a strange force at work, and it seeks to capture you." Ancient Fairy Dragon said.

"What do you mean? Is Regulus alright?" Luna asked.

"Luna we don't have time, return to your world and call me forth there, I'll explain everything once you are safe." Ancient Fairy Dragon said before sending Luna back to the human world.

"Luna, is everything alright?" Leo asked.

"I don't know, we need to talk with the others. I need to talk with everyone." Luna said.

"Alright, well that works because Crow just asked us to stop by." Leo said.

"Ok, I need to grab my deck, the Ancient Fairy Dragon needs to tell me something." Luna said grabbing her cards and duel disc.

"Let's go." Leo said.

"Luna, I thought you were in the Spirit World." Crow said when the twin walked in.

"I was, but the Ancient Fairy Dragon sent me back here, I'm nervous something might be happening." Luna said. "That's why I brought my cards, I summon Ancient Fairy Dragon." as soon as she said that, the dragon appeared in front of the signers.

"Luna, I'm glad you are safe, unfortunately the spirits are in danger, but you must stay away from the Spirit World." Ancient Fairy Dragon said.

"Wait, why should Luna stay away, she could help protect you." Leo said. "Plus she has the powers of the Crimson Dragon."

"You don't understand, some of the spirits want Luna's power for themselves." explained the Ancient Fairy Dragon. "If Luna is captured, not only will the Spirit World become threatened, but your world as well."

"What, but who would try such a thing?" Akiza asked. "Don't all the spirits understand the consequences?"

"You would think, but the truth is these are not typical duel spirits, and I don't know what they hope to accomplish." said the Ancient Fairy Dragon.

"Wait, what about Regulus, he was the one who asked me to come to the Spirit World." Luna suddenly asked. "He's alright isn't he?"

"I was afraid you would ask that, I was captured by these forces, and the only way they agreed to free me, was for Regulus to agree to not only let them capture him, but also call you to the Spirit World and risk placing you in the clutches of the Shadow Spirits." Ancient Fairy Dragon said.

"Shadow Spirits? What are those?" Yusei asked.

"Spirits that have been corrupted by the shadows, the only on I recall was the Darklord Zerato, but recently more and more shadow spirits have appeared." Ancient Fairy Dragon explained. "I saw one of these shadow spirits come into existence, I fear they may try to corrupt you Luna."

"Ancient Fairy Dragon, I need to help the spirits, if I have a chance to save them I have to take it." Luna said. "Besides, I have all the help I could need. My friends are behind me and I know that running away won't stop them. The dark signers tried the same thing, and Zeman was able to stopped."

"Luna, this is far more dangerous, and Regulus isn't able to help you this time." said the Ancient Fairy Dragon. "I can't make you choice for you, but the danger is great. Are you certain you want to risk your safety?"

"Luna, don't worry, whatever happens I'll keep you safe." Leo said seriously. "Nothing is going to hurt my sister."

"Leo." Luna said quietly. "Alright, I'm going to save the spirits."

"I trust you Luna, I'll guide you once you arrive." Ancient Fairy Dragon said before disappearing.

"Alright, well I'll see you when everything is back to normal in the Spirit World." Luna said before a flash of light enveloped her.

"Leo, are you sure Luna will be alright, those Shadow Spirits sound dangerous." Jack said.

"Yeah, maybe she should have stayed here." Crow added.

"No, I agree things are dangerous, but Luna can handle herself. Plus is she didn't go and try to help, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself." Leo said.

"Alright Leo, if anyone knows Luna it's you." Yusei said.

"Thanks, I'm going to head back, I want to make sure Luna has someone there when she gets back." Leo said walking out and riding home.

(A strange force has begun to attack the Spirit World, and Luna is going to try and save it for the third time. Next chapter will reveal the Shadow Spirits and their ultimate goal. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
