Just a small drabble to celebrate today's episode. Spoilers if you haven't seen it yet!
Not Without a Fight
She could feel his creepy grin behind her. Long before she dared to turn around.
As he looked at her and started to chuckle, talking about how she should come with him peacefully, else he would have to use force. And how she wouldn't like it if he used force. But she didn't care as she raised her duel disk, a nervous yet fierce expression on her face. This was the end of the line for her, she knew that. But the least she could do was go standing proudly like her brother had taught her. Because she knew that he and Yuto would do anything they could and even couldn't to save her. Because she knew that she could count on them to get the job done, if she already had to be captured. She had put a lot of faith and thought in that fleeting bird in her mind, from the very moment a redhead had arrived out of nowhere, introduced himself and asked to be her friend. It was her time to go but Kurosaki Shun's little sister wouldn't do that willingly. Not without a fight.
"I will duel you."
Her words caused him to laugh even harder and as his mouth sattled back into that cruel smirk, she knew she was destined to lose. But maybe, just maybe, her brother would be proud if she at least fought back. She believed in him. It was her last hope.
"You are an interesting one, Kurosaki Ruri, very well... let's duel."
- line break -
"Ruri... Ruri... Ruri!"
It pained Yuto to listen to his best friend and comrade shouting his little sister's name all desperate, like a bird with it's wings cut off, and it made him feel ashamed. And angry. Angry that he couldn't protect his precious childhood friend and Shun's beloved sister, Ruri. As Shun continued to shout, the pain in his voice growing by the minute, the younger noticed a lock of hair on the ground that could have only belonged to her. To Ruri. He decided not to say anything about it as the elder began to cry in anguish.
Yuto didn't want to cause him even more pain.
Thank you for reading! :)
