Me: Okay people! Basically, I had a dream. It was the freaking best dream ever. Kaichi EVERYWHERE! It was awesome! And then I woke up and was so sad, cause I wanted to make it last! So I wrote it down! Enjoy the stuff which originated from a weird dream I had!

Astral: This story includes blood, violence, hence the T warning. Aichi is a girl in this one, so there will hopefully be no complaints about the Yaoi, since this technically isn't. Is it yaoi if one is genderbent into a girl?

Me: No idea! Any of you know? I think this is just half Yaoi, cause Aichi's a girl in this. Anyway, don't own Cardfight Vanguard, wish I did, you have been warned about the Genderbending, and enjoy! Honestly, the only reason Aichi's a girl is because if I'm gonna write a continuous fanfic about a couple, I need it to be straight. No offense, I love yaoi! It's just I'm incapable of keeping up with it for a long time. Anyways, yeah!

Astral: She has quite the ideas for this. There will be a new way to cardfight introduced in this, along with new cards and people.

To The Future

Chapter 1: Rescue

Year 3759, where Void has taken over the world. Most people have been taken over by Void and now serve it. The few who haven't are in hiding from the ones who are. If anyone gets caught, they're brought back and Void will take them over. With the world in ruins, people are struggling to survive off of whatever's left. There's no hope left in this rotten world. Or so it seems….

-linebreak-

They kept coming. They kept coming. She sliced through another two peoples' sides, making them fall to the ground lifeless, tears streaming down her face. Five more came towards her. The sword was sharp. It went through them like they weren't even there. And then she was surrounded by corpses of what used to be people.

"Somebody… help…" She whimpered, curling up in a corner of what used to be her home, hugging her sword tight. It was all she had left, the sword and her cards. She didn't know why she kept her cards around, since they weren't practical at all. But she just couldn't get rid of them. They were precious to her, especially her sword. It was once a card too. But then, when that dark force came to Earth, people changed. And when people began attacking and hurting him, she had wanted so desperately to be strong enough to protect herself, to protect something at all, to not be helpless like she usually was, it had transformed into a sword. Blaster Blade.

This wasn't a card game anymore though. This was war. And she was on the losing side.

After all, in the end, Sendou Aichi was no good at anything.

-linebreakofsomesort-

There was a quiet sob from underneath the rubble of a building. A blond-haired teen heard the sound and lifted his head to look around in a slight panic. He held up his weapons blaster as he motioned to the others in his patrol party to come that way.

'Miwa, what's up?' Morikawa had sent him the message on the Aegis on his arm.

'I heard something, come on.' Miwa sent back. It could be dangerous, and with the entire city in ruins around the three teens, who knew what could be lurking.

Miwa approached the wall cautiously, in case it was a Voided person. There were hardly any survivors these days, and the patrols around areas usually just resulted in one or two Void members, or none at all. He sighed. Kai was always so cautious about everything. Their security was top-notch back at the base, there's no way any assault from Void would break through it. One or two people definitely couldn't do anything.

He lifted his blaster and put his back against the wall, peeking around the side of it, breathing as quietly as he could. Morikawa and Izaki, two of his friends on the squad joined him against the wall. Miwa lifted three fingers to countdown. Two. One.

"HAH!" Miwa yelled as he jumped around the side and pointed his blaster in all directions blindly, Morikawa and Izaki following.

There was a sword flash, and the three of their blasters all were slashed to bits, dropping to the ground uselessly. Miwa stared. Those were the latest model blasters, able to sense out Void energies and with enough blasts from the gun, would be able to blast the Void from the person. The person who Void had been possessing was always put in a coma afterwards, and they still hadn't found out a way to revive the person. The guns were supposed to be impervious to every attack out there. And yet…

"What…" Miwa looked at what, or who, was at the base of the wall. A girl around their age was crouching in the corner in a panic. She had long, dirty blue hair that was choppy around the edges, and was wearing a pair of dirty pants along with a matching shirt that had been ruined so much the color wasn't visible anymore. She was cowering in the corner, extremely scared and holding out the strangest sword Miwa had ever seen at them.

The sword was white, with blue edges and designs on it. In the middle of the hilt was a small red gem. Even though the welder was shaking and scared, the sword glowed slightly with power. He had seen that sword somewhere before, but he wasn't sure where…

"H-Hey," Miwa reached out a hand slowly. "Are you okay?"

The sword swung near his face, and he jumped back in shock. The girl had stood up, eyeing them nervously and holding the sword out, ready to use it on any of them.

"S-S-Stay back… p-please… no more…" He heard her mutter, breathing heavily, fear practically emanating off of her body. "G-Go away… Zombies…"

"Zombies?" Miwa studied the girl. She didn't seem to be possessed by Void, and most likely she had been surviving from the Void with that sword of hers. Zombies was probably what she was calling those she had encountered who had been taken over. He took a step towards her, and she trembled more.

"It's okay, we're fighting those zombies too." Miwa said, and the girl seemed to calm down slightly. "We have a base where we're hiding from them, although they're really just people who've been taken over by Void. I'm Miwa Taishi. This is Morikawa Katsumi and Izaki Yuuta." Morikawa waved at her. "We're fighting Void. Do you want to come with us?"

The girl looked up at him in surprise. How long had it been since she had heard actual, human voices and not the voices of Void. This person was actually nice and trying to help her. How long had it been since she had felt any shred of kindness. For the first time in six months, she actually felt hopeful. She nodded.

Miwa smiled. "What's your name."

"S-Sendou Aichi…"

-linebreakofsomesort-

"Come on, it's this way." Miwa said, motioning her to follow him through the crumbling streets of the destroyed town. The sidewalk was fractured, and a bit of blood was splattered here and there. It was like the apocalypse had come, had a party in the entire world, and then gone off home. Although technically, Void still hadn't left their planet. The apocalypse was still going.

"Hey Miwa," Morikawa whispered as he and Izaki caught up to Miwa. Aichi was still lagging behind, her legs not used to traveling long distances. "You sure it's safe bringing another person inside the base? We don't find people these days, and for all we know, this girl coulda been possessed by Void."

"We gotta be careful." Izaki said.

"Yeah…" Miwa looked back at Aichi, who had stopped and was leaning on that sword of hers for support while catching her breath. "That sword looks familiar though…. Besides, if she's really just an innocent person, we can't just leave her out here."

They came across a large apartment building, which seemed to be in better shape than every other building in the area, and stopped at the entrance. A mechanical device on the side of the entrance scanned Miwa's eye, and then opened the door. The four of them walked through the doors.

"Welcome back." A man with green hair and glasses sitting at a desk said. He was typing on a computer, and a dark grey cat sat next to him on the desk. The cat meowed happily at them.

The man looked up from his computer at them, then raised an eyebrow. "You found someone?"

"Yeah…" Miwa said.

The man readjusted his glasses. "Well this is a surprise. I suppose I should just notify him now then?"

"Um, maybe you could, wait a bit?" Miwa said nervously.

"You know what he's like about stuff like this… maybe wait a bit…" Izaki said, looking off in a random direction.

"Hmph! He's no match for me anyway!" Morikawa bragged.

Aichi looked at them all in confusion, clutching her sword closer. "W-Who are you talking about?"

Suddenly, there was an ear piercing roar of a dragon outside. Everyone in the lobby of the building held their ears as the roar got closer.

"Ahehe…" Miwa laughed nervously. "Well then…"

The doors opened, and a person in blue armour and a helmet with a red scarf flying out behind him walked in. He was holding a red and gold shield in one hand, and a huge, flaming spear in the other. Beyond the doors, Aichi could see a red dragon dressed in armor standing on the ground, awaiting its master's orders. (A/N: Dragon Knight, Nehalem)

The man's armour and weaponry glowed on his body, then disappeared, leaving a black jacket with a white shirt underneath, along with jeans and black shoes. Now that the helmet was gone, Aichi could see the man's face. He had brown hair spiked to the side, along with green eyes. Aichi had seen him before somewhere before, she was sure of it…

"Miwa, how did the patrol go?" Kai said to Miwa in a cold tone.

"Yo, Kai! Well, same old same old, except," Miwa smiled, then put an arm on Aichi's shoulder and leaned on her. "We found somebody!"

Kai looked at him, his expression unchanging. Then the spear from before appeared in his hand and he thrust it at Miwa's face. Just before it collided with his left eye, the shield that Kai was holding before appeared in Miwa's hand and blocked the attack. Spear and shield hit each other with a loud clang. The two guys looked at each other in the eye for a silently scary 10 seconds, although it felt like 10 minutes, before Kai drew back, sighing and the spear disappearing in his hand. "Well, at least you haven't gone completely incompetent."

"Still as harsh as ever, I see." Miwa cocked his head to one side, smiling.

"Still as soft as ever, I see." Kai retorted, then turned his attention to Aichi.

"We're going to have to take her for questioning, along with testing for Void and then decide what to do with her." He said.

"I-Isn't that a little harsh?" Miwa said as Kai began walking away.

"You're the one who said I was harsh. Now come on, and bring her too."

"Oi! Wait up Kai!" Miwa yelled. He motioned for Aichi to follow him, then began chasing after Kai into an elevator. Eventually, Aichi caught up with them. She still had trouble running, and leaned on the wall of the elevator as they went up the stories of the building.

In the lobby, Izaki let out a breath he had been holding in ever since Kai had entered the building. "Oh thank god. He forgot about us. Talk about good luck, right Morikawa?"

"No no no!" He heard Morikawa shout and turned around to see what was wrong with his friend. There, he saw Morikawa crouched in the corner, holding a rare booster pack ripped open and staring at the five cards he got. "None of these are Grade 3s! They're junk!"

"Morikawa! You know how rare cards are, don't just throw them away!" Izaki yelled as he ran to Morikawa.

-linebreakofosmesort-

In the elevator, Aichi looked at Kai and Miwa, who had started a conversation whispering to each other again. She couldn't hear what they were saying though. Miwa seemed nice, and he was a bit funny too. Kai was…. She couldn't describe him yet. He just seemed so, enigmatic? Wasn't that one of the words her mom once used to describe school before Void.

Her mom. Oh gosh, she accidentally thought about the past again. Now wasn't the time for that. She had finally found some other people. Now was the time to move forwards, not look back.

Aichi took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves. It had been months since her last interaction with technology. How had they managed to keep all this stuff even after the apocalypse happened?

The elevator dinged, and the doors opened. Kai and Miwa walked out, Aichi following in their heels. They walked into an office at the end of the hall. The office was small, with a desk in the middle and large windows behind it, with chairs in front of the desk. Kai sat at the desk, with Miwa pulling up a chair beside him. Aichi didn't know what to do, so she sat down on one of the chairs nervously.

"As you most likely know," Kai started, "Void came to our planet 5 months ago and just about destroyed everything."

"Y-Yeah…" Aichi said, fiddling with her fingers and not meeting his look.

"Ever since then, we've been hiding here, building forces to fight back against it. We've gathered enough supplies to keep some people living here. You can stay as well. We have spare rooms."

"Oh… thanks…" Aichi said, hugging her sword instinctively. Kai noticed it, reacting ever so slightly.

"That sword? Is it your vanguard's?"

Aichi looked at him with questioning eyes. Vanguard's? "U-Uh, I don't know…"

"It seems like it." Miwa said. "Do you know how to use it? If so you could work in our warriors."

"U-Use? W-Warriors? I-I can't do something like that…"

"Do you know how to reverse it back into a card? It'll get tiring always carrying it around in its actual form." Miwa added.

"Back to a card?" Aichi thought about it. One day, her precious card just turned into a sword when she needed it to. She thought it was just a coincidence. "It can go back?"

"Yeah. See." Miwa touched the hilt of the sword and focused. The sword shrunk down in Aichi's hands until it turned into its original form, the vanguard card Blaster Blade. Aichi stared at it in surprise. She was so used to it being a sword that its card form seemed so much smaller than it actually was.

"Woah! That really is a Blaster Blade!" Miwa looked at the card and laughed. "Man that's one rare card!"

"Miwa, sit down." Kai said. "We'll work out something for you. For now, you can stay in room 606. Follow the signs to find it." He tossed a key onto the table and Aichi took it nervously. "We have breakfast at 7 am sharp, then at 8 come down to the gym. That's all."

"Okay." Aichi said, assuming that meant she was on her own then. She stood up, bowed to them, then walked out of the room. When she was out, she took a deep breath. Still as shy as ever, and no real human interaction for 5 months didn't exactly make it better.

Oh well, she found people, nice people, and they were actually helping. That was good! It felt nice to be around real people, as opposed to what that Kai had called it, people possessed by Void. She followed the room signs, went to the sixth floor, and used the key to enter her new room. It was a standard hotel room, with a bed, a table and a chair, a sink, and a bathroom in a corner.

She walked to the bed and collapsed onto it. It was soft and comforting. The feeling was actually a bit foreign, since she had been sleeping on dirt just yesterday. An actual bed was nice. It had been a tiring day, since she walked nearly two miles just to get to this place. Sleep would be nice…

And so Sendou Aichi fell asleep on the bed, still fully dressed, and still holding onto her Blaster Blade card.

-yeahthisisjustalinebreakignoreit-

"You could have said more you know!" Miwa said, his face resting on his left hand as he leaned on Kai's desk.

"There was nothing to say." Kai said simply, reading over some documents sent over from a base to the east.

"Oh come on. That girl had the Blaster Blade card! That's really rare!" Miwa continued.

"And so what? Are we supposed to treat her special just because she got lucky before the invasion?"

Miwa sighed. His friend was really thick sometimes. "Tomorrow's gonna be fun you know!"

"That's just you talking." Kai replied.

"Nope! I got the feeling in my gut! And you're going to enjoy it!"

"Forget it Miwa."

"Oh cheer up for once!"

"Never."

"Whatever! I gotta go check on the food supplies! See ya!" Miwa waved and exited the room. Kai looked out the window behind him.

Blaster Blade. Was it really the same as the one 7 years ago? Even if it did, what did it matter now?

Tomorrow would be interesting. Miwa was no Misaki, or even a prophet, but he might have been right on that matter. Tomorrow would be very interesting.

Me: Oh jeez, I wrote this, then forgot about it for so long! I have literally been waiting for Link Joker to come out JUST for the purpose of this fanfic! Gods! But hooray it's finally out I can do something productive!

Astral: Homework.

Me: ACK! Oh right! While I do my homework, please leave a review! Bye!

Astral: And one more thing. She will accept some OCs for this. But only through PMs.

Me: Any put in reviews will not be allowed automatically without looking. There's gonna be a LOT of stuff happening! So accepting OCs for limited time, review, and I'm off! KAICHI! I actually got an idea on where this should go!
