So this is a beautiful collab between myself and CorinnetheAnime, who, by the way, writes the most amazing stories, I swear to God.
A breakdown of what this is is very simple: Zarc is the elder brother to the Dragon Boys and Ray the elder sister to the Bracelet Girls. However, they aren't related, and Yuya's dating Yuzu, which results in this very twisted parody.
And now here's CTA's little note:
CorinnetheAnime: Never collaborate a story with CorinnetheAnime unless you want parodies...such as this one. You will laugh your head off.
So yeah. Please R&R.
"Yuya, why the heck are you dating that pink-haired...witch?" Zarc asked with disgust clear in his tone.
"Witch? Why is Yuzu all of the sudden a witch?" Yuya asked harshly.
Zarc just glared. "Because she's Ray's little sister!"
"Who's Ray?" Zarc realized his mistake a bit too late and closed his mouth to prevent further embarrassment, but Yuri, in all his purple cabbagey glory appeared in the doorway, his usual sneer plastered on his face. "What's this I hear about my big brother's girlfriend?"
Zarc's face flushed a bright red. "Ray's not my girlfriend!"
Yuri's smirk widened deviously. "Yeah, sure she isn't...otherwise, you wouldn't have replied so defensively as you had."
"He's got a point there, big brother." Yuya remarked lowly, stepping away from the creepy cabbage very slowly.
Zarc looked like he was about to blow a fuse. "How many times do I have to say it?! SHE'S! NOT! MY! GIRLFRIEND!"
A loud crash came from the other room, with a loud exclamation of pain, before the fandom's favorite Synchro banana burst into the room, eyes as big as a tomato.
"ZARC ONII-CHAN HAS A GIRLFRIEND!?"
Yuya jumped and fell over with a resounding thump at Yugo's very loud entrance, while Yuri's smirk widened to impossible lengths.
Zarc, however, looked like he was about to jump over the coffee table and strangle both Yuri and Yugo simultaneously, the bright red blush on his face refusing to recede.
The purple cabbage then nodded to answer Yugo's question. "Hey, Yugo, does Rin have an older sister?"
Yugo glared at his cabbage-haired rival, crossing his arms in indifference. "She never mentioned about having an older sister...well, as far as I know."
Yuri frowned, tapping his chin. "And yet...you've met Ray like twenty times when you visited Rin and the others. How did you not know that she was their older sister?"
Yugo dropped his jaw. "Ray is their SISTER?! I thought she was their mom, you know, since she is, like, taller than the rest of them!"
Everyone (except Zarc, who face-palmed) face-vaulted from the sheer obliviousness of the banana-blueberry-haired boy.
Yuri recovered first and just stared at Yugo. "And I thought you were stupid before. This takes it to new heights! How does Rin even deal with your overwhelming stupidity?"
Yugo leaped at the Fusion cabbage, fists raised, while Yuri just gave him the most disinterested stare anyone could give while holding out an arm.
And because cabbages overpower both blueberries and bananas, Yugo bounced right off of Yuri's arm and landed with another loud crash on the floor.
"You should watch where you're going...Fusion-kun." Yugo's eyes widened briefly before narrowing in rage.
"For the very last time, my name is not Fusion, it's YUGO! Get it right, you idiot!" He rose up again in a flash, ready to punch the living daylights out of Yuri, who smiled devilishly in return.
Yuya stood in the background, shaking his head in disappointment.
However, before the fight could escalate any further, Zarc stood between Yugo and Yuri, grabbing the former's fist with ease, his crimson eyes blazing ominously.
"Of all the siblings in the world, why do I have to deal with you IDIOTS?!" He yelled, pushing Yugo back. "At least Yuya and Yuto never fight like you two do!"
Yuri's eyes held barely concealed anger at the statement of "idiot", while Yugo's wrist feebly twisted in Zarc's iron grip.
Their elder brother's crimson eyes were smoldering with anger, while Yuya just sighed in the background before sliding out of the room, his tomato hair disappearing from Yuri's peripheral vision.
Five seconds later, he was being dragged back in by Yuto, whose grey eyes were filled with complete exasperation.
"Can you two be in the same room without riling up Zarc for once?" The XYZ brother asked, voice filled with the same exasperation as his eyes.
"Nope," Yuya quipped, crossing his arms. Yugo and Yuri both glared venomously at him as a result.
Yuto shook his head as well, deciding to tell Zarc something in a monotonous tone. "Also, Ray's on the phone, and she wants to talk to you."
"No thanks," Zarc growled, still glaring at Yugo, "I still have a few troublemakers to deal with at the moment."
"She says it's important."
"Still no."
"VERY important, matter of life and death."
"For the last time, the answer is NO! She can take care of it herself for all I care, whatever the matter ma-!"
"All four of our dragons have escaped and are now loose in their garden again."
Zarc slammed a hand down on the nearby coffee table, effectively causing Yugo, whose hand he was still holding, to jump. "Who was supposed to be watching them!?"
"Yugo," Yuya said with absolute certainty in his voice. "You do realize I just came from the girls like twenty minutes ago, right?"
Yuto cut in. "Ray says that Odd-Eyes has already smashed her tulips, and Rin isn't happy that Starve Venom murdered her strawberries."
Zarc let out an angry hiss, eyes glowing, before throwing Yugo on top of Yuri and stomping out of the room.
"Someone should go after him to make sure he doesn't blow up any of Yugo or Yuri's stuff," Yuya said, ignoring Yuri and Yugo's angry yells in the background.
"Who wants to volunteer?!" Yuto declared, and almost immediately, everyone else (including him) in the room, except for Yuya, stepped back, leaving the tomato-haired duelist all alone in the front.
The boy realized what just happened and tried to step back as well, but Yugo pushed him forward. "You go help him, " he concluded.
"Yeah, I'll take care of these guys for Zarc," Yuto muttered.
Yuya scowled at his three brothers. "You are all a bunch of scared bullies, you know that?"
Yuri smiled and winked in return. "Scared? No. Bully? Yes. Now, go help big brother."
Yuya grumbled under his breath as he walked out. "Why do I always get the short end of the stick...?"
Yuto caught up to him just as he was about to exit. "Hey, don't worry. I'll finish what Zarc wanted to do to those bakas. Just go make sure he doesn't kill the girls."
Yuya winced at the thought of Yuto's Phantom Knights beating up Yugo and Yuri before nodding. "Sure."
Suddenly, Yuto's duel disk let out a shrill beep, signaling a call incoming.
"It's Ruri," Yuto informed Yuya, before taking the call. "Hey, Ruri." He listened for a moment. "Ohhhh-kay, then. Yeah. I'll bring the other three over. We'll sort this out. Yeah... Okay... See you in a few."
Yuya stared at him expectantly before Yuto sighed and said, "Change of plans. YUGO! YURI! GET OUT HERE! WE'RE GOING TO THE GIRLS!"
Both mentioned boys raised an eyebrow in confusion, hesistating for a moment.
Yugo was the first to speak. "Why need us all of a sudden?"
Yuto pulled him by the ear (much to Yugo's protests and yells) as he, Yuya, and Yuri headed out the door, with Zarc trailing behind with a low glare on his face. "Because your Clear Wing just trampled all over Ruri's petunias and is now perched on top of their roof, literally crowing like a rooster. They can't get him down."
"But what about Yuri?" Yugo pointed over his shoulder at the guilty party.
"Because Starve Venom was biting Clear Wing's tail. You know the relationship between your dragon and his."
"Looks like the apple doesn't fall far from the tree," Yuya quipped, chuckling to himself, earning a low glower from Yuto and Yugo.
"And your Odd-Eyes is trying to dig holes and build a bed in their flower beds, Yuya." Yuto continued monotonously. "Your dragon is no better."
"At least he's more sociable than the others!"
"Yeah, but he's also more mischievous!"
"Oh, yeah? Well, what about your Dark Rebellion?! That thing likes to set fire to everything! I swear, every time I go into the stables, he is always after my head!"
"WILL YOU ALL PLEASE SHUT UP FOR ONCE?!" Zarc bellowed, grabbing the attentions of the four younger brothers. "You are all giving me a headache, and if you all keep arguing, for so help me, I will FEED you all to your dragons! UNDERSTAND?!"
Yuto spared a glance at his older brother before continuing in a monotone. "Zarc, Owari just ate all the fruit trees Yuzu spent the past three years growing."
Zarc just stared at Yuto before gritting his teeth in an "I am so done" matter, fists clenched at his sides.
Yuya was tapping out a message to Yuzu on his duel disk, as Yugo and Yuri began to bicker about Clear Wing and Starve Venom once more.
"Starve Venom provoked him!"
"Clear Wing probably started it!"
"No, Starve Venom bit him first!"
Without a word, Zarc pinched both Yuri and Yugo's ears and began dragging them down the sidewalk, his eyes glowing with annoyance as the two yelped and tried to unsuccessfully remove Zarc's fingers from their ears.
"Come on, let's go and get your dragons back into order," Zarc grumbled, and they continued down the road to the girl's' house...well, what was left of it.
When they reached it, there were two things that immediately alerted them of the craziness that occurred: the first were the various mud and scorch marks on the red-tiled roof of the house, the mud leaving dragon-like footsteps all over the roof (and some on the once clean, white walls).
The other sign was the fact that Clear Wing was perched on top of a windmill, indeed crowing rather obnoxiously. Yugo's cheeks reddened in embarrassment.
"Clear Wing...?"
Yuri guffawed at him, earning both of them another quick pull in the ears by Zarc.
Then, Clear Wing was joined by Dark Rebellion, who decided to push him off the roof of the house in an effort to declare himself "king of the hill"...well, roof. Clear Wing was unimpressed by this.
Yuya was about to snicker into Yuto's ear...when Odd-Eyes pranced around the side of the house, followed by an angry Yuzu, holding an orange tree branch in his mouth as if they were playing fetch.
Yuya's face immediately flushed bright red. "Odd-Eyes!"
Yuri couldn't help but laugh at his brothers' misfortunes, earning him another pull of his already red ears by Zarc.
Then, Owari flew over the roof of the house, his shadow so enormous that it covered the entire building, holding a curled up Starve Venom in his claws. The supposedly venomous dragon of Yuri's was wailing like a little baby in the ritual dragon's arms, drool dripping down the sides of its mouths.
All the mirth disappeared from Yuri's eyes as his face paled. "Starve Venom~! What are you doing!?"
It was then that Ray walked out of the house, spotting the five brothers immediately (giving a quick scowl to Zarc and Yuri). "FINALLY, I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER COME! NOW, HELP ME GET THESE VICIOUS CREATURES OFF MY PROPERTY!"
The boys flinched slightly from her angry tone, Yuya being the first to respond. "Alright, we'll help, but we're gonna need the other girls as well."
Yugo nudged him in the shoulder, grabbing his attention. "Um, isn't the purpose of this job to save the girls, not to lead them in harm's way with our dragons?!"
Yuya whispered back, "Yeah, but we're gonna need all the help we can get if we were gonna restrain Starve Venom and Owari. You know how rowdy they can get."
As if on cue, the Ritual and Fusion dragons decided to play a little game of tag on the roof, bouncing up and down, running, and climbing all over the building while swiping playfully at each other. The roof couldn't handle their beatings, and started to cave in on itself.
Ray let out some very colorful words that should definitely not be written down before whirling over at Zarc. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!"
Zarc adapted a very indignant expression. "No, blame Yugo! He was the one who was supposed to watch them!"
Ray threw her hands up in exasperation as Zarc activated his duel disk. "Yuya, Yuto, you two go get Odd-Eyes and Clear Wing. Yugo, Yuri, you two cover Dark Rebellion and try to get Starve Venom. I'll take Owari. GO!"
Yuzu ran up to Yuya, said approximately six words, and she, Yuya, and Yuto disappeared around the back of the house to chase Odd-Eyes and find where Clear Wing had fallen earlier...thanks to Dark Rebellion.
Serena and Rin, who had come running out from the windmill after Clear Wing's fall as king of the roof, joined Yuri and Yugo in subduing Dark Rebellion and Starve Venom.
That left Zarc alone with Ray, the two eldest siblings glaring at each other in the ultimate ex-boyfriend/girlfriend smackdown.
"Well, we meet again," she sneered scornfully.
"If we didn't see each other ever again, then it would be too soon," Zarc retorted, crossing his arms in return.
Ray's lip curled into a snarl. "Consider yourself lucky that I need you and your brothers' help for once; otherwise, I'd beat you to the pulp just for crossing over here."
"Fine by me, witch," Zarc insulted, which infuriated the girl, resulting in one, epic fight.
Next chapter up whenever we decide it will be up, but hopefully soon!
See you guys next time-
