This is a sequel to the original "Syrus Vs. Jesse" story that I did. To understand this one, one really needs to read that or they might be lost.
Syrus knew that he would never be with the one he loved. Jaden, whom was now married to the one Syrus hated most of all - Jesse Anderson, rejected Syrus during their third year at Duel Academy and he made it no secret that even after seven years, he still rejected him. Torn and anguished by the loss of his beloved "Aniki," Syrus laid in the waves that fateful night when he crashed the Duel Academy class reunion before Jesse's greatest beast blasted him with its attack, destroying the evil duel spirit of Berserk Gorilla that had fused itself with Syrus. He wanted to drown so that he wouldn't have to go on without Jaden any longer. He had no one - Zane disowned him; Alexis and the others shunned him for his atrocious behavior; and worst of all, Jaden hated him and would never love him because of Jesse. That unfortunate reality echoed across his mind, reminding him of everyone he lost in his pursuit of selfish lust for the one that used to be his best friend.
"Jaden, I love you still after all these years. Don't you remember what we had before he came along and ruined everything? How could you forget me, aniki?" sobbed Syrus as the waves washed over him. He was going to let himself drown, but something inside him told him to keep going.
It had been nearly five months since the Duel Academy class reunion where Syrus Truesdale went off the deep end, utterly humiliating himself before everyone is his last final effort to win Jaden's love. He sat alone in his apartment, depressed and angry over his demise five months prior. His pet chinchilla had ran away and apparently found a new and happier home with someone down the street. Syrus didn't care. All he wanted was either to steal Jaden away from Jesse or to somehow make Jesse pay for "stealing" Jaden from him.
"I'll make that son of a Norwegian bitch pay," muttered Syrus to himself as he scratched under his arm, insulting Jesse's homeland.
He had really let himself go in the past five months. He had not showered in a week nor had he applied any deodorant to his body in over a month and it showed. He gazed through his bloodshot eyes - puffy and strained from all the alcohol he had consumed, as he tossed another can of cheap beer across the room. In fact, the entire floor of his living room was covered in empty and crushed beer cans. Because of the sad state of his life, he drank himself away, hoping that maybe someday all the booze would make him forget about Jaden - the one he was infatuated with.
"I just need to find a way to get what I want. I'm not finished with Jaden yet and I'll never be until he's mine."
Syrus stepped out of his house and began walking down the sidewalk. He found himself doing this a lot these days. He looked up at the gloomy sky and remembered that he had to soon be at work. He waited tables in a diner and it was a horrible job in his view. He hated it all - scraping gum off the bottoms of tables; dealing with moody customers; and saying "Can I take your order" over and over again. Recently his boss had severely cut back his hours due to both his mood and his poor hygiene and gave to him an ultimatum: either he'd clean himself up or he'd be fired. He still hadn't cleaned himself up and he did not care either way.
"I hate my boss."
Hearing a squeaky sound behind him, Syrus turned around to see rats following him as he walked down the side walk. They were attracted to his stench that was brought about by his poor hygiene and this was not the first time they followed him down the sidewalk on his way to work. If his boss knew…
"Get away from me!" whined Syrus as he ran faster, nearly outrunning them.
When he found himself at work, he signed in and took his position at the cash register. His boss came through the door and took one look at him, glaring at what he saw.
"Syrus, I told you to clean yourself up or you're outa here and you still haven't! Get outta here! I can't have you serving my customers like that. I mean it, you're fired!"
"Shut up," shouted Syrus as he flipped him the middle finger and stormed out of the diner.
About halfway to his apartment, he encountered the rats again. It was as if they were waiting for him and although he tried to walk around them, they began following him anyway.
"Stupid things!" whined Syrus as he kicked one, causing it to squeal as it lifted itself up. This was a big mistake for all of the rats started squealing and from a nearby ally many more rats came rushing out. Frightened, Syrus screamed and ran as fast as he could to his apartment. The rats were trailing him and he was disgusted utterly. He ran, screaming at the top of his lungs, just barely making it to his apartment door and slamming it so that the legion of rats could not get in. Pissed and tire, Syrus threw himself upon the cheap couch and lay in total apathy.
"I hate everyone. At the rate my life is going, the only thing that could make it better is Jaden. I better start working on that plan to get back my aniki…"
For the rest of the afternoon, Syrus contemplated a plan on how to make Jaden love him. He thought about kidnapping him, but that seemed to extreme and would Jaden really love him if he did that to him? He also thought about bribing him. Yeah, that could work, but it would be much too difficult for Syrus was, well, poor. Frustrated, Syrus threw himself upon his couch, stuffing his face with pork rinds he bought from Walmart. There was one particular pork rind that he kept in his moth for some time, licking it and sucking on it as he pretended that it was a certain part of Jaden's body, until it melted from his saliva wearing it away.
"I need my Jaden," thought Syrus to himself. He took his television remote and started banging it against his forehead out of his frustration, while hoping that something would come to him.
"I got nothing, dang it!"
He lay on his couch, sobbing, until he thought of something sinister.
"I could do what I did last and… No, I can'. It's too dangerous and besides, they defeated me. I mean, could I?" pondered Syrus to himself as he got up off his couch and ran to the broom closet, tripping on one of his crushed beer cans he had tossed onto the floor.
"Ow, that hurt!" shouted the blue haired boy as he lifted himself to his feet, continuing to the broom closet where he kept the forbidden card that could potentially lead to Jaden's affection.
"Jaden will love me whether he wants to or not!" whispered Syrus to himself as he clenched his fist.
Jaden and Jesse were relaxing in their pent house at the top of one of the skyscrapers in Domino. Jaden was laying on the couch, reminiscing about his days at Duel Academy as Jesse was editing his deck. They both had the day off and it had been a while since such a thing occurred for each of them had such demanding schedules in the dueling pro-leagues. It was nice to have a day to themselves.
"So, do you want to do anything special today, J?" asked Jesse.
"Not particularly. I was thinking of maybe going to the mall and buying a new outfit."
"Alright, we cold do that. I'd like to go out myself for once and just have a nice day."
"We'll need to disguise ourselves though. We're bound to be recognized if we go out in public. You know that, right?"
"Of course."
MEANWHILE…
"Hahaha, it's perfect. I'll just fuse myself with my old friend, Berserk Gorilla, and we'll cause havoc downtown. Yes, this is my most clever scheme yet," laughed Syrus to himself as he pulled out the card that he locked away for so many months after the tragic event at the class reunion. I'll give my demands and Jaden will surely be mine. He'll have to for the sake of his friends and the citizens of Domino City."
Syrus stared adamantly at the Berserk Gorilla Card and in his other hand, he held the Polymerization card. He knew it would be dangerous and that is why he took the precaution of stepping out to his backyard before he performed the deathly ritual.
"I fuse myself with Berserk Gorilla!" and so it happened. Syrus' muscles enlarged to abnormal rates, his eyes turned piercing blue, he grew light blue fur all over his body, and finally, his height reached twenty feet or higher. His laughed before making his way to th street as dozens of his neighbors stared in horror at him. He toppled cars and ripped fire hydrants out of the ground as he ran through the streets, eventually making his way to the main plaza of Domino. He grabbed three innocent peoplee and held them in his clutches, threatening to eat them, if Jaden Yuki did not surrender himself to him.
"Jaden Yuki! Where are you? If you want these people to be spared than you'll give yourself to me!"
The police came and started shooting at Syrus, but it was to no good. His fat was too thick for their bullets to effectively penetrate. All he did was laugh in his squeaky yet terrifying gorilla-esque voice that thundered across the city. He knew that Jaden would come, he just had to.
MEANWHILE…
"You ready, J" asked Jesse as he put on his coat.
"Yeah," said Jaden as he was flipping through the television channels before turning to the local news station.
"We now bring you news of a giant, blue gorilla that is terrorizing downtown Domino. It has captured multiple people and is threatening to devour them if the famous duelist Jaden Yukidoes not surrender himself to it. Police have tried their best to contain the beast, but all efforts have failed."
Jaden was speechless. He stared at the screen and nearly had a heart attack as it showed the video footage of Syrus causing havoc downtown.
"Jesse! You better come see this."
"What is it? What… That little asshole, he's at it again, dang it!"
"What are we going to do? We can't just let him devour those people!"
"I'll go down there and summon Rainbow Dragon and blast him to oblivion is what I'll do," stated Jesse angrily.
"I'm going with you."
The two of them rushed to the scene downtown to find their friends standing in the crowd.
"I hate him. I can't believe he and I share the same blood," admitted Zane, shamefully.
"We're here to stop this!" shouted Jaden.
"You guys are here. Don't do anything dangerous," warned Alexis
"We got this covered," assured Jaden before he made his way through the crowds to the area where Syrus was. He was smashing everything in sight with the exception of people. In his one hand, he still had the three victims, who were all shivering for their lives, while he rampaged.
"Syrus, I'm here!" declared Jaden with confidence and courage.
The big gorilla turned his head to Jaden as his eyes lit up with delight. He dropped the three people and lunged at Jaden before Jesse could even summon Rainbow Dragon to finish the job. Grabbing Jaden, he smooched him and jumped to a building and began scaling it.
"Jaden!" shouted Jesse, knowing that it was far too dangerous to summon Rainbow Dragon because its blast would decimate the building as well as the gorilla climbing it.
"I can't risk harming innocent people," whispered Jesse to himself.
Jesse stood, wtching as Jaden was carried away from him, screaming for his life as Syrus carried him to the top of the building.
"What're you gonna do with me?" demanded Jaden.
"Hehehe, Jaden, you and I can finally be together at last. At first, I thought resorting to this kind of thing wasn't worth it, but now I know that it is. We're gonna be lovers forever!"
"JESSE!"
"JADEN!"
