Ulrich362: Hi again guys, time for another crazy idea.
bopdog111: Another one made by Ulrich.
Ulrich362: Crazy ideas tend to come from me and less crazy ones are typically yours Bopdog, so with that said enjoy the start of Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V Dragon's Wish.
bopdog111: This one is different. How different? Let's see.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!
A young man with silver and green hair and gold eyes was sitting under a tree looking at his deck with a frown on his face.
"Zarc?"
He turned to see a marooned haired girl was walking over to him. His expression brightened seeing her as he got up. "Ray? What are you doing here?"
"You look troubled." Ray told him.
Zarc frowned. "I'm just... I'm thinking. You're my best friend, and maybe even more than that. But you're all I have."
"What's wrong Zarc?" Ray asked concerned placing a hand on his shoulder.
Zarc closed his eyes before kissing Ray gently. Ray's eyes widen at that before kissing him back.
A few seconds later Zarc pulled back only to frown as he looked up. "Ray... how long have we known each other?"
"About... 6 months." Ray answered.
Zarc nodded before looking at his deck. "Ray, can you make me a promise?"
"What?" Ray asked curiously.
Zarc took five cards from his deck and looked at them. "If something happens... an accident or I get sick or... anything. I want you to take care of them for me. You're the only person in the world I know I can trust."
Ray looked at the cards to see five dragons. One of each different method.
"Will you keep them safe Ray?" Zarc asked.
Ray looked surprised at this but nodded. Zarc smiled with tears before hugging her. "Thank you Ray, that means more than you know."
Ray hugged him back.
"As long as we're here, do you mind if we just sit in the shade together for a while?" Zarc requested.
"Sure Zarc." Ray smiled.
Zarc smiled as the two of them laid down together and he gently placed an arm around her shoulders.
A few weeks later...
They were staring at where Zarc harmed his opponent by accident. He was looking around in awe before the crowd started cheering.
"Huh? Zarc he's hurt you need to do something!" Ray cried but it was drowned by the cheering.
"This... you want duels like this?" Zarc asked before a grin appeared on his face. "Is this what you want to see?"
The crowd cheered on in response.
"Yeah that's what we want Zarc!"
"Keep on it we love to see that kind of action!"
"Yeah this is what we want for in this!"
"ZARC! ZARC! ZARC! ZARC! ZARC! ZARC!"
"Then from now on that's what I'll give you all, exactly what you want!" Zarc declared.
Ray widen her eyes at that in horror. Days and weeks passed as Zarc's matches became more and more brutal with his opponent's getting injured worse and worse as his attitude became colder and colder.
Finally Ray has had enough. "Zarc!"
"Ray, isn't it amazing. My duels are exciting everyone." Zarc smiled. "It's the greatest thing ever."
"Zarc you have to stop this evil!" Ray yelled at him. "This is not what you wanted the crowd's cheering is changing you!"
Zarc's eyes widened. "Ray... what. are you saying? You've known that making the crowd happy is all I've ever wanted. I'm the strongest duelist in the world and they're loving my matches. Nothing could be better."
"Yes I know but don't you see? They didn't care if anyone gets hurt!" Ray told him. "That's what we should do in duels, and make sure he's okay!"
"It doesn't matter Ray. If people get hurt it just means they were too weak." Zarc replied.
Ray then couldn't help it, and slapped Zarc loudly. Zarc's eyes widened in shock before he glared at Ray. "Fine, you've made your feelings known."
With that he turned and walked off leaving Ray on her own.
"Zarc..." She trailed off sadly placing a hand on her chest.
Zarc's violent duels continued before one day he defeated dozens of opponents before standing in the center of the arena.
"Give me more, someone challenge me! Give me another opponent to crush!" Zarc declared.
Everyone cheered hugely at this as Ray looked on with frustrated tears. Zarc looked on before holding up five cards and summoning his dragons as they roared together unaware that Ray had fled the arena.
"Ray!" her father Leo Akaba ran after her on it.
She had tears in her eyes. "Why? Dad why did he do it?"
"I don't know. But I think I have a solution." Leo answered as he looked around, "Despite all the destruction the wind is still blowing and the flowers and trees seem to be fine. If we can tap into that energy then maybe... We can save people."
"What do you..." Ray started before they heard screaming and saw Zarc's dragons flying overhead attacking people.
"We need to hurry, and tap into that power." Leo told her.
Ray nodded at that.
With that said, and done during the rampage Leo, and Ray have put their efforts to tap the energies of the birds, the winds, the flowers, magic, and even the moon to create four spells to counter Zarc. The Natural Energy cards.
With the completion of the cards Leo Akaba turned to his daughter. "You have done enough, leave the rest to me."
"Dad, what are you saying? It's too risky!" Ray cried in horror.
"I'm going to use these cards to split Zarc and his dragons apart, though in doing so... the same thing is going to happen to me." he answered.
Ray's eyes widened before she paused. "No, I have to do it dad."
Meanwhile...
"Now my dragons it is time to unite as one!" Zarc cried before holding up a card. "Astrograph Sorcerer who governs spacetime! With your abyssal power overlay our desires!"
A magician looking like space appear lifting his staff as Dark Rebellion, Odd-Eyes, Starving Venom, Clear Wing, Frozen Heart, and Zarc himself was lifted to a portal were they seem to be combining.
Seeing that Ray closed her eyes and took a look at the five cards before turning to Leo Akaba. "Goodbye dad."
With that she ran to the portal.
"Ray what are you thinking?" Leo Akaba questioned in shock before running after her.
"Zarc!" Ray cried as the portal faded revealing a massive dragon.
The dragon turned to her. "What do you want?"
Ray closed her eyes as a tear fell. "To keep my promise to someone I love!"
With that declaration she activated the five cards.
"Huh?" the dragon was taken back.
Suddenly Zarc felt as though his body were being torn apart while five bracelets appeared on Ray's arms as she closed her eyes.
Flashback...
It was a few days after Ray had first met Zarc. Zarc was sitting on a bench.
"Zarc right?" asked a voice from behind him.
He turned to see. It was a smiling Ray. "It's Ray, we met the other day after your duel remember?"
"Oh yeah." Zarc smiled standing up.
"I just wanted to say your duels are always incredible. I'm a duelist myself but I don't have quite your level of skill." Ray admitted. "You always look like you're just having the best time out there."
"Well... I want to bring smiles to crowds." Zarc admitted.
"That's a great thing to want. I'm sure if anyone can do that it's you." Ray smiled.
"Thanks." Zarc smiled.
"I should go, but it was nice talking with you." Ray smiled before walking away with a slight blush.
Zarc looked on as he had a blush on his face as well.
End Flashback...
Ray opened her eyes as tears fell and Zarc continued roaring in agony. Roaring in agony Zarc roared at Ray, "Stop it! Stop it now! Or you will suffer the consequences!"
"I can't stop it now Zarc, even if I wanted to. The world, you, and me... all three of us are being torn apart." Ray told him as both of them split into five colored silhouettes of themselves as a different dragon flew towards each of Ray's silhouettes before a blinding flash of light enveloped the world.
Years later...
A crying was heard in the front door of a man's house. Curious the man opened the door and looked around. Hearing the crying from below he sees a basket. Inside was a baby girl with pink hair hugging a bracelet and a Duel Monsters card. Looking shocked he picked up the baby, and sees no note.
"You poor thing." he told the baby before picking her up and walking inside.
The baby girl calmed down hearing his voice. He gently rocked her. "Don't worry, I'll take care of you from now on... Zuzu."
Her bracelet shined a little as she snuggled to him. With that he turned into the house and shut the door.
