Yugioh GX
Coming of the Twilight

Chapter 1: A hero's calling

"Neos Wiseman, finish him off..." In a blinding flash of light the duel ended, his defeated opponent falling to his knees, "That's game."

After collecting his winnings our hero, Jaden Yuki, walked back to his van, his home since leaving Duel Academy. Once he'd stowed the money in the glove box he started the engine had took off for this next destination, this had been his life since leaving Duel Academy, driving round the country and making a living by entering duels be they minor ones against regular people or tournaments both big and small. Sure he wasn't Aster Phoenix or Zane Truesdale with their big sponsors and living in big hotels but he was happy.

"How long are you going to continue living like this?" Jaden didn't even need to look beside him to know Yubel was seated in the passenger seat beside him, a familiar looking fat cat sitting on her lap.

"Don't know," He replied his eyes fixed on the road ahead, "As long as it takes I guess."

That evening the small party had pulled into a small rest stop to spend the night, in the back of his van there was a futon spread out for him to sleep on as well as a mini fridge, an electric heater a hot plate and a light dangling from the ceiling. The brown haired young man was currently seated in the back waiting for his ramen to heat up when the cell phone he'd gotten from Axel Brodie began vibrating.

Grabbing the devise Jaden flipped it open and saw that he had a text message.

Jaden Yuki
Be at the shrine on Nokogiri Yama in 3 days.

"I wonder what this is?" he wondered aloud, he then turned to Yubel who was still seated in the passenger seat staring up at the sky, she could almost sense something in the air and it bothered her, she couldn't say for sure what it was but she knew that she didn't like it.


Three days later Jaden found himself driving along the roads of Chiba, a small island located just off the coast of Tokyo bay, heading up Nokogiri Yama. It wasn't long before he found himself standing beneath the largest statue of Buddha in the country, Pharaoh at his side. He was clad in a black denim and faded jeans as well as a red t-shirt and his Duel Disk strapped to his arm.

He had been waiting for nearly 20 minutes now and yet no one had approached him, he was about to give up and leave when a person wearing a cloak came into view. Jaden watched as the figure approached the Buddha, assuming that they'd come to offer a prayer. Figuring that he'd been dooped he turned to leave.

"Jaden Yuki." A voice spoke up making him stop in his tracks; Jaden looked round and saw the cloaked person was now approaching him.

"That's me." Jaden replied, "I take it you're the one who called me here."

"That's correct." The figure said, "I have brought you here to test you."

"Test me?" Jaden said in a confused, "What are talking about?"

The figure then grabbed Jaden's arm. "There is little time, your test shall begin now." Jaden felt something strike him in the chest and he blacked out.


When he opened them again he found himself in a strange place, there was no sign of anything on the horizon and only a layer of fog on the ground, it was kinda like the place where he had dueled Yubel a void of nothing.

"Jaden, are you alright?" A voice spot up, Just then Jaden felt a hand on his shoulder and looking up he found Yubel kneeling down next to him as well as Pharaoh, the Duel Spirits eyes filled with concern.

"Yeah, I think so." He replied as he sat up, "Where are we?"

"I don't know, I cannot sense anything in this realm except for you and I." Yubel told him as she helped him to his feet, "We are completely alone."

"Not quite." The pair looked round and found the cloaked man from the shrine standing not too far from them.

"It's you." Jaden said, "Who are you, where have you taken us?"

"It is as I said, I have brought you hear to test you." The man replied, "As to who I am…" he then grabbed a hold of the cloak and tore it off revealing he was wearing golden armor and a helmet with horns on it as well as a flowing red cloak.

Jaden's eye widened in shock. "Wait your Captain Gold." He exclaimed.

"That's right," The golden HERO replied, just then the armor on his left arm morphed into a Duel Disk and he took out a deck of cards from a holster on his belt, "Now young one, your test begins."

Frowning Jaden activated his own Duel Disk and inserted his own cards, he then turned to Yubel. "You better return to your card just in case." Yubel then nodded before vanishing. Jaden then turned back to his opponent, "Ok, then get your game on."

"DUEL!"

[CGLP: 4000] The Captain drew his first card. "For my move I shall place one card face down and summon a monster in defence mode." Two brown backed cards appeared on the field. "Turn end."

[JLP: 4000] Jaden drew his first card, "Alright then, I summon Elemental HERO Sparkman."

Elemental Hero Sparkman
ATK: 1600/DEF: 1400/Level: 4/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior

The blue and gold clad hero appeared on the field. "Sparkman take out his monster," He ordered, "Spark Shoot…" Electrical energy emerged from the HERO's hand at the opponents which was revealed to be a kid wearing a red and green costume with a mask on its face before it shattered into data.

Elemental HERO Boy Wonder
ATK: 600/DEF: 700/Level: 2/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior/Effect
When this card is sent to the Graveyard as a result of battle, you can Special Summon 1 monster with "Elemental Hero" in its title that has an ATK of 1500 or less in face-up Attack Position from your Deck. Then shuffle your Deck.

"The monster you just destroyed was the Elemental HERO Boy Wonder." The captain told Jaden.

"Boy Wonder?" Jaden said confused.

"Yes and because of its destruction I can now summon out a new HERO from my deck with 1500 ATK or less." The captain explained, "Behold Elemental HERO Ocean."

Elemental HERO Ocean
ATK: 1500/DEF: 1200/Level: 4/Attribute: Water/Type: Warrior/Effect
Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: You can target 1 "HERO" monster you control or in your Graveyard; return that target to the hand

A blue skinned aquatic man appeared on the field. Jaden stared at it in shock. "Ocean…" He exclaimed, "But that's Koyo's monster, your using his deck aren't you?"

"I see you do remember this card." The Captain replied, "You are correct, is this is the deck that once belonged to Koyo Hibiki. Now let us continue."

Jaden stared at his opponent. 'Ok if he is using Koyo's deck then he'll want to summon Woodsmen next in order to fusion summon Terra Firma, that means his face down is Terra Firma Gravity.' "I play a face down and end my turn."

"Then it's my move." The captain announced as he drew, "I summon out Elemental Hero Stratos."

Elemental Hero Stratos
ATK: 1800/DEF: 300/Level: 4/Attribute: Wind/Type: Warrior/Effect
When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can activate 1 of these effects;
● You destroy Spell/Trap Cards on the field, up to the number of other "HERO" monsters you control.
● Add 1 "HERO" monster from your Deck to your hand.

A muscular blue skinned man wearing armor and white pants and a pair of wings with turbines in them appeared. "I'll now use Stratos's ability to transfer an Elemental Hero from my deck to my hand." The captain announced as he picked up another card from his deck. "Now Stratos attack." The turbines on Stratos's wings began spinning creating a gale force wind.

"I don't think so," Jaden announced, "Go trap card, Invincible Hero."

Invincible Hero
Type: Basic Trap
Select 1 monster on your side of the field. The selected monster cannot be destroyed by battle until the End Phase of this turn.

The wind struck Sparkman however he was able to shrug it off." [JLP: 3800].

His turn again, Jaden drew his next card. "I play Polymerization." he declared as he slipped a card into one of his Spell/Trap zones.

Polymerization
Type: Basic Spell
Send Fusion-Material Monsters that are listed by a Fusion Monster Card from your hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon the Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck.

"I fuse Sparkman with Hero Bladedge." Jaden declared, both of his monsters being drawn up into a swirling vortex that appeared above the field. "Fusion Summon, come forth...Elemental HERO Plasma Vice."

The vortex flashed and from it emerged an even more buff version of Sparkman, large golden armoured gantlets adorning his arms.

Elemental Hero Plasma Vice
ATK: 2600/DEF: 2300/Level: 8/Attribute: Earth/Type: Warrior/Fusion/Effect
"Elemental Hero Sparkman" + "Elemental Hero Bladedge"

During battle between this attacking card and a Defence Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent. By discarding 1 card from your hand, destroy 1 monster in Attack Position your opponent controls.

"Plasma, take out his Stratos," Jaden ordered, "Plasma Pulsation." Letting out a cry, Plasma Vice lunged at Stratos and grabbed ahold of the winged HERO, releasing waves of electrical energy that destroyed it [CGLP: 3200].

"That's quite an impressive monster." The captain commented, showing no reaction to his monsters destruction.

"Uhh…thanks I guess." Jaden replied, "Turn end."

The captain drew a new card. "I use Oceans ability, returning Stratos from my graveyard to my hand." He said, a card slid out of his graveyard that he added back to his hand.

"And now I shall summon Stratos again and move another monster from my deck to my hand." The winged HERO appeared once more, "Now I shall use the spell Hero's Bond."

Hero's Bond
Type: Basic Spell
If there is a face-up "HERO" monster on the field: Special Summon 2 Level 4 or lower "Elemental HERO" monsters from your hand.

"This spell summon's two HERO's from my hand." The Captain explained, "Come forth Elemental HERO's Woodsmen and Ice Edge, both in defence mode."

Two more monsters appeared on the field, one who looked be made of wood with moss growing on him whilst the other was a kid wearing spiky looking armor and helmet.

Elemental Hero Woodsmen
ATK: 1000/DEF: 2000/Level: 4/Attribute: Earth/Type: Warrior/Effect

Once per turn, by discarding 1 card from your hand, this card can attack directly. When this card inflicts damage due to a Direct Attack, destroy 1 Set Spell or Trap Card your opponent controls.

"Nice line up," Jaden commented, "Too bad they don't come close to my Plasma Vice."

"Is that what you think?" The captain asked, "I play a face down, switch my Ocean to defence mode. Turn end."

Jaden drew his next card. 'Now who do I pick…' He mused 'I can do more damage if I take out Ice Edge but Woodsmen's ability lets him add Polymerization to his hand. Then again his Ocean's ability is pretty bothersome as well. I know he wants to summon Terra Firma so if I get rid of either Woodsmen or Ocean he won't be able to...' "I play the spell card De-Fusion, splitting my Plasma into Sparkman and Bladedge."

De-Fusion
Type: Quick-play Spell
Return 1 Fusion Monster on the field to the Fusion Deck. In addition, if all the Fusion Material Monsters that were used for the Fusion Summon of that Fusion Monster are in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon them all to the field.

There was a flash and Sparkman and Bladedge appeared with Plasma Vice had been moments before.

Elemental HERO Bladedge
ATK: 2600/DEF: 1800/Level: 7/Attribute: Earth/Type: Warrior/Effect
During battle between this attacking card and a Defense Position monster whose DEF is lower than the ATK of this card, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent.

"Go Sparkman, take out his Ocean." Sparkman fired off another electrical blast that destroyed the aquatic hero. "Now Bladedge, take out Woodsmen with Power Edge." The gold clad hero dived towards Woodsmen ready to cleave it in two.

"Nice try, I activate my trap Defender Hero." The captain announced.

Defender Hero
Type: Basic Trap
When a monster is targeted for an attack, transfer the attack to a 'HERO' you control.

"With this I change the target of your attack;" He said in a calm tone, "The target of your target is now my Stratos." Moments before Bladedge could make contact, Woodsmen vanished and was replaced by Stratos [CGLP: 2400].

Jaden let out a small growl of frustration. "Turn end." he said.

Captain Gold then took his turn, "I use Woodsmen's ability to add Polymerization to my hand." He said, a card slipping out of his deck.

"But why?" Jaden asked, sounding confused, "Ocean is gone so you can't summon Terra Firma?"

"Terra Firma is not this decks only powerful monster," Captain Gold retorted, "Allow me to show another of its greatest perils, I will use Polymerization to fuse Woodsmen and Ice Edge." Both of the armor clad duelists monsters were drawn up into the Fusion Vortex. "Fusion Summon, come forth...Elemental HERO Gaia."

The ground then shook and cracked open, a large man covered a black armor rose up from it.

Elemental HERO Gaia
ATK: 2200/DEF: 2600/Level: 6/Attribute: Earth/Type: Warrior/Effect
1 "Elemental Hero" monster + 1 EARTH Monster
This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. When this card is Fusion Summoned, select 1 face-up monster your opponent controls. Until the end of this turn, that monster's ATK is halved and this card gains the same amount of ATK.

"Whoa," Jaden said, "That's huge. Even so my Bladedge is stronger."

"Is that what you think." The captain replied, "I use Gaia's ability, cutting the strength of your Bladedge in half, then in return Gaia's strength goes up by the same amount." The giant HERO let out a cry as its ATK rose (EHBW 2600→1300/EHG 2200→3500).

Gaia attack with Continent Hammer." Gaia's arms rose above its head and brought them down crushing Bladedge [JLP: 1600]. "Turn end."

Jaden then took his turn, the only monster he had left was Sparkman and the powered up Gaia could crush it in one blow. If he ever needed a lucky draw now was the time. "I play Graceful Charity; I draw 3 cards as long as I ditch 2."

Graceful Charity
Type: Basic Spell
Draw 3 cards, then discard 2 cards.

Jaden drew his 3 new cards then discarded the ones he didn't want. "I play Polymerization, to fuse Sparkman with Clayman" He declared, both of his monsters being drawn up into the swirling mass of colour and energy. "Fusion Summon, come forth...Elemental Hero Thunder Giant."

The Fusion Vortex flashed and from it appeared another of the former Slifer's infamous Fusion HERO's.

Elemental Hero Thunder Giant
ATK: 2400/DEF: 1500/Level: 6/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior/Fusion/Effect
"Elemental Hero Sparkman" + "Elemental Hero Clayman"
This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. Once per turn, by discarding 1 card from your hand, select and destroy 1 face-up monster on the field with original ATK less than the ATK of this card.

"Now I use Thunder Giants ability, I discard a card to destroy your Gaia." Jaden said as he discarded a card from his hand, "Thunder Giant, Vapour Spark…" The brunettes monster then released a burst of electrical energy that vaporised Gaia.

"Thunder Giant attack directly, Voltic Thunder..." Thunder Giant unleashed another burst of electrical energy this time at the captain who didn't even flinch as the lighting struck him.

"Yes, I got him." Jaden said, certain of his victory.

"You think so, I think not." Captain Gold replied, "Not as long as I have this, the trap Defence Draw."

Defence Draw
Type: Basic Trap
Activate only during damage calculation during your opponent's turn. The Battle Damage you would receive becomes 0. Draw 1 card.

Jaden growled as the Captain drew his card. "I set a card. Turn end."

The Captain took his turn. "I play the spell Legacy of a Hero," He declared.

Legacy of a Hero
Type: Basic Spell
Activate only if there are 2 or more Level 4 or higher "HERO" monsters in your Graveyard. Draw 3 cards.

"Thanks to both Ocean Woodsman and Stratos being in my grave, I'm allowed to draw three cards." The Captain drew again. "I summon out the Elemental HERO Flash in defence mode."

Elemental Hero Flash
ATK: 1100/DEF: 1600/Level: 4/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior/Effect
When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: You can banish this card and 3 "Elemental HERO" monsters with different names from your Graveyard to target 1 Normal Spell Card in your Graveyard; add that target to your hand.

A man in a blue skin tight outfit and silver armor appeared. "Turn end."

His turn once more, Jaden drew a card. "Thunder Giant attack." He ordered, the giant released another burst that destroyed the opponent's monster.

"Flash's ability now activates, I remove it and 3 other Elemental HERO's in my grave from play to add a spell card from my grave to my hand." The Captain announced, he then removed 5 cards from his graveyard and returned 4 of them to the holster whilst adding the 5th to his hand.

"Turn end." Jaden announced.

Captain Gold took his turn. "I use the Polymerization I brought back, fusing my Elemental HERO's Voltic and Knospe." He declared both of his Monsters being drawn up into the Fusion Vortex. "Fusion Summon, come forth...Elemental HERO The Shining."

Elemental HERO The Shining
ATK: 2600/DEF: 2100/Level: 8/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior/Fusion/Effect

When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: You can target up to 2 of your banished "Elemental HERO" monsters; add those targets to your hand.

The vortex flashed and a new monster appeared from it, a man clad in a white suit that had gold trim as well as several red gems set into it. "The Shining's ability now activates, granting him 300 ATK for each of my banished Elemental HERO's, as there are 4 removed from play giving it 1200 extra ATK." The Captain explained as his HERO's strength rose (EHS 2600→3800), "Shining destroy his Thunder Giant, Optical Storm..."

The Shining released an almighty burst of light that destroyed Thunder Giant and knocking Jaden to his knees. [JLP: 200].

Breathing heavily tried to get back to his feet. "Humph, pathetic." Captain Gold snorted.

"Excuse me?" Jaden demanded.

"Look at you, you're like a dull blade." The Captain said coldly, "The way you've spent the last year has dulled your duelists instincts. Where is the Jaden Yuki who saved the world from the Sacred Beasts, the Light of Destruction and Nightshroud? When was the last time you had a real duel against an opponent that offered you a challenge and forced you to use your full strength. If you do not come at me with your true power then I shall crush you and you will disappear into nothing."

Jaden stared at the golden hero, his words cutting deeper than any blade. 'Is he right, have my dueling instincts become dull? I thought I had become stronger but was I wrong, did my ego just blind me to the truth? Was my 3 years at Duel Academy for nothing?'

Just then he recalled something. "Yugi-san, I'll become stronger. And when the time comes..."

'That's right I swore to Yugi that I would become a stronger duelist and only then would I face his again. To do that I must duel with all my strength, I owe it not only to Yugi and myself but also to Koyo the man responsible for the path I'm on now.'

Jaden got back to his feet his expression, changed as he prepared to draw his new card, "No more fears, no more doubts. I will duel with all my heart and soul. Draw."

On the other side of the field the captain was smiling underneath his helmet. 'That's right Jaden, come at me with everything.'

Jaden drew his next card. "I play the spell Covert Contact, and I send Aqua Dolphin from hand and Grand Mole from my deck to the graveyard to draw two new cards."

Covert Contact
Type: Basic Spell
Activate only while you control no monsters. Send 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster from your hand and 1 from your Deck to the Graveyard. Then draw 2 cards.

Jaden drew again and saw what he had drawn before looking up at Captain Gold, "Captain, I have four spell cards in my hand, the four spells I need to beat you." He said, determination in his voice, "First is Cacoon Party."

Cacoon Party
Type: Basic Spell
Special Summon 1 "Chrysalis" monster from your Deck for each "Neo-Spacian" monster with a different name in your Graveyard.

"This card Special Summons a Chrysalis monster from my deck for each Neo-Spacian in my grave," Jaden explained, "I summon Chrysalis Pantail and Chrysalis Pinny."

You can Tribute this card while "Neo Space" is face-up on the field to Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian Glow Moss" from your hand or Deck.

There were two small burst of light and a black and black and white kitten with red eyes and an alien like creature both of who were wrapped in some sort of clear-ish membrane appeared.

He then selected another hard from his hand. "Spell card 2, Contact,"

Contact
Type: Basic Spell
Send all "Chrysalis" monsters you control to the Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 monster from your hand or Deck that is written in the card text of those cards.

"This evolves my Chrysalis's into full grown Neo-Spacian's," He explained, "So say hello to Neo-Spacian Dark Panther and Neo-Spacian Glowmoss." Both the membranes were torn apart as the creatures inside them grew into two of the residents of Neo Space.

Neo-Spacian Dark Panther
ATK: 1000/DEF: 500/Level: 3/ Attribute: Dark/Type: Beast/Effect
Once per turn, you can select 1 face-up monster your opponent controls. While you control this face-up card, until the end of this turn this card's name is treated as the selected monster's name, and it gets the selected monster's effect(s).

Far from done Jaden selected another card. "Spell card 3, O-Oversoul." He announced.

O-Oversoul
Type: Basic Spell
Select 1 "Elemental Hero" Normal Monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it.

"This lets me summon a normal Elemental Hero from my graveyard," Jaden continued, "From the graveyard I revive...Elemental HERO Neos."

Elemental Hero Neos
ATK: 2500/DEF: 2000/Level: 7/Attribute: Light/Type: Warrior

The muscular alien hero appeared on the field. "Now I invoke the powers of the universe, fusing my three monsters together to call forth one of the most powerful HERO's," Jaden declared, all three of his monsters leapt into a vortex in the sky. "Contact Fusion, come forth…Elemental HERO Chaos Neos."

The Fusion Vortex flashed and from it emerged a black skinned man with white armor and bat wings.

Elemental HERO Chaos Neos
ATK: 3000/DEF: 2500/Level: 9/Attribute: Dark/Type: Warrior/Fusion/Effect
"Elemental Hero Neos" + "Neo-Spacian Dark Panther" + "Neo-Spacian Glow Moss"

During the End Phase, return this card to the Fusion Deck then Set all face-up monsters currently on the field. Once per turn, you can toss a coin 3 times and apply the appropriate effect: ● 3 Heads: Destroy all monsters your opponent controls. ● 2 Heads: This turn, the effects of all face-up monsters your opponent controls are negated. ● 1 Head: Return all monsters you control to their owner's hand.

Jaden then reached into his pocket and took out a coin. "Chaos Neos's ability depends how many times I can call heads." He explained, he then tossed the metal object into the air and caught it three times getting the following results: heads tails heads. Jaden smirked, "Two heads, that means The Shining's abilities are negated." (EHS 3800→2600).

"Chaos Neos, attack The Shining," Jaden ordered, "Light and Dark Spiral..." Chaos Neos released a stream of bats from his wings that attacked The Shining and began gnawing a way at him until he shattered into data." [JLP: 2000].

"Not bad Jaden," The captain told the hero duelist. "However The Shining's destruction triggers its ability."

"What are you talking about?" Jaden said in a confused tone, "Chaos Neos negates all special abilities?"

"Not this one, when The Shining is destroyed I can take any 2 of my Banished Elemental HERO's and add them to my hand." The captain explained as he took out 2 cards from his deck holster and showed them to Jaden, "I choose Woodsmen and Ocean. I must say your last move was impressive; you have begun to regain your former strength. Because of this on my next turn I shall summon the HERO who surpasses Neos, Elemental HERO Terra Firma."

"As much as I want to see Terra Firma in action there is no next turn." Jaden replied, "Don't forget I have one more spell to play. Contact Out to split apart Chaos Neos."

Contact Out
Type: Quick-Play Spell
Return 1 "Neos" Fusion Monster you control to the Fusion Deck. If all the Fusion Material Monsters listed on that Fusion Monster are in your Deck, you can Special Summon them.

Chaos Neos glowed and separated into Neos Dark Panther and Glow Moss. "Neos end this," Jaden ordered, "Wrath of Neos…." His alien HERO leapt into the air and delivered a mighty blow on Captain Gold ending the duel [CGLP: 0].

"That's game." Jaden then fell to his knees; he hadn't felt this worn out from duelling since his third year competing in duels whilst wearing thosbio bands of Vipers. Yubel and Pharaoh suddenly appeared at his side and wrapped her arms around him, "Jaden, are you alright?" Yubel asked as the cat gave a concerned mew.

"Yeah, but I haven't felt this beat since Vipers survival duels." Jaden replied as she supported him.

Just then they noticed Captain Gold walking towards them, "Congratulations, you passed the test." He told the brunette.

"Good to know," Jaden retorted, "Now you owe me some answers, why you brought me here?"

"And I shall answer your question, but first since you were the victor you here is your reward." The gold clad Captain then held out his deck to Jaden.

"Koyo's deck, I…I can't accept this." Jaden told the Captain, "There are Koyo's cards; his heart and soul resonate within them. That's why I could never use them"

"Jaden Koyo Hibiki was a great duelist and out of everyone he chose you to carry on his legacy that's why he gave you his cards." Captain Gold said firmly, "And you will need them. You wanted to know why I brought you here, the answer is simple. I had to see if you were strong enough."

"Strong enough for what?" Jaden asked.

"Something that never should have occurred has happened." The captain replied, "Something that threatens us all."

The area around them began to change and an image of Jaden defeating Nightshroud and saving the population of Earth from the World of Darkness came into view.

"When you defeated Nightshroud you forced him off the planet back into space, when he did he encountered another enemy of yours: the Light of Destruction." The armor clad Duel Monster said, "Being completely opposed to one another these two primal forces of the universe clashed with one another but when they did they somehow merged with one another creating a new life form of terrible power."

"A new life form?" Jaden said in a confused tone.

"Yes and now it threatens everything." The Captain turned his gaze to Yubel, "You know of what I speak."

Yubel stared at the golden hero. "You don't mean the presence I've been sensing?" She asked.

"That is correct." Captain Gold replied, he returned his focus on Jaden, "Jaden, you are our only hope. It will take time for you to recover your full strength, however that is also a luxury we do not have."

The Captain snapped his fingers and a strong wind began to blow causing the smoke that covered the ground to rise up and wrap itself around Jaden Yubel and Pharaoh.

"Wait, what's going on?" Jaden cried as the smoke concealed him and Yubel from view. When the wind dropped the trio had vanished.

Still staring at the spot where Jaden had been Captain Gold removed his helmet revealing the face of a man with dark hair and sporting glasses, 'Jaden, good luck.'
