A/N: Hey! Do you know what today date is? Yup! It has been a year ago that Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's ended. Welcome to my new story! ^^ I know that I should be working on my other story but this story was sitting in my flash drive since last year and I decided that maybe this year it would be best if I premier this story. I was going to post this story up last year a week before Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's could end but then I realized that I didn't have enough information about what this story was going to be about.
Summary: This is a 'what-if' story. What if Yusei and Akiza encounters with a young girl who comes from the future and tries to warn them that an old enemy is planning to cause chaos once more? Should they trust her or will they let it pass by like it is nothing? And why does this young girl resemble like Akiza?
Originally, I was going to title this story as Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's R, which is, by the way, a parody of Sailor Moon R (Season two) [For those of you who know what or who is Sailor Moon, then you know what's going to happen in this story. But if you don't, just look it up on Wikipedia]. Instead, I decided to rename the title into Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: The Force of Destiny since 4kids decided to name the third and fourth season as Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Road to Destiny. This storywill take place after a year after Z-ONE's defeat.
[Just in case you're wondering about the 'R' in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's R can be interpreted as "Return", "Romance", "Rebirth" or "Revenge". Sadly I wanted this to be the title of my story but I find this new one even better. C:]
The reason why this story is going to take place one year after the defeat of Z-ONE is that while I researching the anime on Wikia, it actually says that the last three episodes (152-154) happens a year and half later. So basically this story will fill in what happened during the one and half (1½) year time lapse. In other words, this story takes place after episode 151 and before episode 152. This story will contain a little bit of romance but not that much.

P.S. Aki, Jake, Violet, and Reila are my own characters and before you ask, no Jake and Violet are nothing like EchoGirl318 OC's.

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: The Force of Destiny
Chapter 1: A Girl Falls from the Sky
One Year ago…
After the defeat of Z-ONE, things in New Domino City have come back to normal. Thanks to Yusei for saving the city from destruction everything and everyone are now living happily. Or so Akiza Izinski thought. She's been harboring feelings to a certain blue eyed, black spiky hair with golden highlights and with the head of the Crimson Dragon on his right arm man.
That man is Yusei Fudo, the savoir of New Domino City.
After more than two years crushing on Yusei, Akiza felt that she should tell him what she was feeling but whenever she approached him there's someone always interrupting there moment alone. Sometimes Akiza feels that Yusei feels the same way as she does but he can't come to terms by telling her his feelings. Both Akiza and Yusei are both afraid of being rejected if they ever did tell each other that they like or even love each other.
One day Akiza felt that she had enough courage to tell him about her feelings so she visited him at Poppo Time where he still lived along with Jack and Crow. When she arrived she was glad to know that he was alone working on an engine. Akiza stood there for a while and stared at the blue eyed, head Singer duelist as he was fixing his duel runner. Yusei doesn't know that a certain red head had come to visit him. Akiza walked down the stairs and touched his shoulders. He jumped at her touch.
"Akiza, you scared me. So what brings you here?" he asked as he set down a screwdriver on the floor.
"Sorry about that Yusei. I was wondering if we could…go out on a walk. Alone, just the two of us," she said as she looked down and fiddled with her thumbs.
"Okay but let me finish working on this engine and then we can go out. Can you wait for five to ten minutes?"
"Sure." Akiza went over to the couch and sat there. She watched Yusei going back to work on an engine that he was repairing. She took out her cell phone from her pocket and checked if she had any messages from her friends from Duel Academy.
Akiza's still studying in Duel Academy but she's planning to be a doctor. Ever since she found out that she can heal herself, she has tested herself if she really can heal other people by helping out the people in the hospital that were either ill or suffered minor injuries like cuts. Many of her friends asked her if she was going to be in the Pro Leagues like Zane Truesdale but she hasn't been sure of herself on what she wants to be in the future. She has filled out many applications to colleges and universities. She's even planning to study aboard if they accept her.
She has no messages on her phone so she started to play a game on her phone while she waited for Yusei to finish his work. Minutes passed by and Yusei was finished. He saw Akiza playing with her phone so he sat next to her and decided to let her know that it was time to go out on a walk. Akiza was busying playing the game on her phone that she didn't know that Yusei has already finished. She felt him touch her and she turned around. Akiza didn't know how long he was sitting next to her but being close to him made her heart leap.
"Do you still want to go out on a walk?" he asked in that smooth and suave tone which made Akiza's heart skip a beat.
Akiza stared into his blue eyes that she felt like drowning into them. A slight pink blush brushed across her cheeks. "Yeah, let's go." She hoped that Yusei wouldn't notice her blushing as they got up from the couch together. He grabbed her hand and they walked out of the garage. Akiza felt her stomach fluttering by Yusei's touch that she was sure that she was going to have a heart attack. Yusei, on the other hand, felt a strange and a warm feeling while holding Akiza's hand.
Maybe they didn't need to walk but to drive to her destination. "Yusei?"
Yusei stopped walking and faced at Akiza, "Yeah Akiza?"
"I was wondering if you could," she wasn't sure if she should ask him but the way Yusei was staring at her made her even more nervous, "…if you could take me to the docks where I told you that I want to become a turbo duelist," she whispered towards the end.
Yusei managed to have heard her, "Sure, just let me get my duel runner and we'll be there in no time." He let go of her hand and that warm feeling that he and Akiza felt faded away. Every time that Yusei spends his time with Akiza he felt really comfortable. For whatever reason she came to Poppo Time, Yusei was always glad to see Akiza come by and help her out. Yusei walked back into the garage and pushed out his duel runner. As he pushed out his duel runner, Yusei handed an extra helmet to Akiza and sat on his motorcycle. He waited for Akiza to get on as she sat behind Yusei. "Are you ready?"
"I'm ready," she puts on her helmet.
"Then let's go." He started the engine and they were off to the docks to talk alone.
He drove her to the docks in silence as he felt Akiza pressing herself on his back as her head rested on his shoulders. Yusei felt happy and embarrassed; happy because he has the girl of his dream holding on to him and embarrassed because he felt her chest pressing on his back that he felt a bit uncomfortable. Meanwhile, Akiza was happy to hold onto Yusei and she felt her heart thumping of joy and nervousness. Everything felt so right with Yusei.
Once they arrived, Akiza hopped off from his duel runner and took off the helmet and gave it to Yusei. She ran up to the rail and closes her eyes as she inhales the smell of the sea and feels the rush of air blowing through her hair. It was everything she could imagine. Yusei went over to Akiza and saw her relax. He has to admit that she looks beautiful and peaceful when she has her eyes closed.
'What is it that she wants to talk about? I have to know.' He didn't want to break her moment but he had to, "Akiza, what is it that you wanted to tell me about?"
Akiza opened her amber, cat-shaped eyes and look out towards the sea. She dare not to look at his eyes but she knew that she has to tell him what she had in her mind for more than two years, "I…I want you to know…"
"Yeah?" he asked her in that suave tone of his.
"…that I…I…"
Yusei didn't know what Akiza wanted to say but the way she was talking made him worried, even nervous. "You what Akiza, you're making me nervous!" he grabbed her arms and made her look at him. His cobalt-blue eyes pierced into Akiza's amber eyes trying to figure out what she wanted to say. Akiza looked into his eyes and for a minute she forgot what she was going to tell him. Both stared into each other eyes as their own eyes were the one that did the talking. They stayed like that for one whole minute to which they felt like they were staring at each other for one hour until Yusei realized by the way he was holding her, "I'm sorry Akiza." he let go of her arms, "I shouldn't have hurt you. Tell me what you want to say."
'Come one Akiza, tell him! You have to tell him that you love him. Just say the three magical words and he'll say the same thing…wait a minute, what if he doesn't feel the same way as me. Then I'll just end up ruining our friendship. What am I going to tell him?' Akiza thought. 'Well here it goes,' "Yusei, for the longest time that I met you, you've been my enemy, my friend and my savior. I'm grateful that you helped me to reconcile with my family and that you helped me believe that I can think for myself. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be this kind of person that I am right now. I want you to know that I just don't like you Yusei."
Yusei felt his heart break into millions of pieces when he heard her say that she doesn't like him, "You don't like me Akiza?" he asked in a hurtful tone.
She immediately realized her mistake when she saw his expression, "No, that's not what I meant Yusei. I mean I like you, I really do like you and you're my best friend and I…"
'So Akiza sees me as her friend. So she doesn't love me, is that what's she trying to tell to me?' Yusei thought.
Akiza stopped talking and saw his expression change again and this time she felt guiltier. "Yusei," she grabbed his hands and intertwine them with hers. "I'm going to blurt out whatever I have to tell you. So please just hear me out when I tell you that I…I…I…" She just couldn't tell him what she felt. So, she leaned towards Yusei that their faces were so close that they felt each other's breath's on their skin. Akiza couldn't wait any longer and pressed her lips onto Yusei's lips. When she did that, she closed her eyes tight that tears were leaking out of her eyes.
Yusei felt his heart thumping so fast, he wasn't expecting her to kiss him. He felt something wet on his face that his other hand reached up to her face and cleaned the tears out of her face. He still had his eyes opened as Akiza has her eyes closed. He was too shocked to respond to her kiss that he felt that he couldn't breathe. Yusei broke the kiss away and inhaled sharply.
When Akiza felt that she was pushed away she opened her eyes slowly and saw Yusei with a shocked expression, 'I knew it. I knew it all along. He doesn't feel the same way as I do. He probably hates me for kissing him without his permission. I just ruined our friendship!' she thought as fresh, hot new tears sprang out of her eyes. "I'm…I'm so sorry Yusei for kissing you like that," she manages to choke out with force as if it burned her neck when she said it. Akiza turned around and almost made a run for it when she felt that she was being held back.
"Don't be sorry Akiza." Yusei made her face him and cleaned the tears away from her face, "If anyone has to say 'I'm sorry' it will be me because I'm so dense for not telling you how I feel about you. When you told me that you didn't like me I was afraid that you didn't like me as a friend. Akiza I need to tell you that I like you more than a friend. I see more than a friend Akiza; I see you as a woman, as my lover, as my future wife and as the mother of my children."
Akiza couldn't believe what he just said. It only took her a few seconds to digest everything he said, '…more than a friend, as a woman, lover, future wife and mother of my children.' This was being repeated over and over again in her mind like a record player. Then she realized that he does feel the same way as she does. Akiza was about speak when he spoke again.
"Akiza what I'm trying to tell you is that I love you. I really and truly love you with all my heart," he confessed to her.
Akiza's heart banged against her chest as she heard his confession, 'He loves me! Yusei feels the same way as I do.' "Yusei, I also lo—" but Akiza didn't get to finish what she was saying because her lips were concealed with Yusei's lips. She decided to kiss him back with all her might as Yusei too felt her kissing back. She wrapped her arms around his neck as her hands balled into his hair.
Yusei wrapped his arms around her slender waist as he pulled her body closer to his as their kiss went deeper and more passionate than the last kiss. They both felt fireworks exploding inside of them as they felt their love pouring onto them. Every inch of their bodies ached for their love as they continued to kiss. Akiza opened her lips as she felt his tongue entering her mouth. She tried to taste every single bit of him as he too let her tongue enter his mouth as he tasted her.
After that long and passionate kiss, they broke the kiss and began to breathe hard. They both closed their eyes as their foreheads touched each other. Yusei was satisfied with the kiss but he was sure that before he kissed her, Akiza was about to say something. They opened their eyes and stared each other for a split second until she began to speak.
"I also love you too Yusei. I always have and I always will. I love you from the bottom of my heart," she said as she grabbed his hand and placed it to her heart. Yusei felt her heart beating against her chest and in his hand.
'It is true what she said. She does love me just as I love her. I can feel her heart beating for me. I'll never let you down Akiza. I'll always protect you no matter what. You're my first and true love.' He thought to himself.
It was already getting late but they decided to stay at the docks a little bit longer as they watched the sunset together in each other arms. It was the most beautiful sight that they ever seen in their lives. After the sun has set, they decided to go back to Poppo Time and tell their friends that they're officially a couple. Yusei handed his lovely girlfriend the extra helmet as he puts his helmet on. After they got on his duel runner their ride back to Poppo Time was pleasurable for the two young couple.
When they arrived to Poppo Time in fifteen minutes, they found Jack, Carly, Crow, Mina, Trudge and the twins waiting for them. "Yusei, Akiza, where have you guys been? We've been looking for you two all afternoon." Leo exclaimed.
"Yeah, we thought something bad had happen to you guys that we called for Mina and Trudge to look for you," added Luna.
Yusei chuckled, "You guys didn't have to call Mina and Trudge to look for us. You could have called me or Akiza's cell phone," he said.
"So, where did you guys go?" asked Carly.
Crow noticed that his best friend is holding hands with Akiza. He was sure that Yusei had some feelings for the red-head and that something might happen between them but just to make sure, he said, "I think I know what going on."
"What?" the others exclaimed and looked at Crow.
"Look at their hands." They looked towards Yusei and Akiza's direction and noticed that they were holding each others' hands with their fingers intertwine. "Do you mind telling us what going on between you two?"
Akiza and Yusei looked at each other with a smile forming on their lips, "I think it's time to let them know," Akiza said. "Do you want to tell them or should I tell them?"
"How about if we both tell them together," he said as Akiza nodded in agreement. "Well guys we should let you know that…"
"…we're a…" Akiza continued.
The gang gasped as they heard the next words that came out of Akiza and Yusei's lips, "…a couple," they said together. Nobody said a word as they all stared at Akiza and Yusei with utter shock.
"For real?" Carly asked first as she broke the silence, "Like for real? This is not a joke right?" she began to laugh nervously.
"Nope. This is really happening." Akiza responded. Carly's laughter faded away and saw that what they said was true. The way Akiza and Yusei were looking at each other was something that Carly or the rest of the gang did not expect to happen. The twins ran up to them and hugged them. Leo ended up knocking down Yusei. Everyone began laugh as they saw Yusei being knocked down by a hyperactive twelve year old boy. They joined in and congratulated the new couple.
Present Day…
Akiza's in her room getting ready for her date with Yusei as they both are going to celebrate their first year anniversary of being a couple. Ever since that day, Akiza's life change dramatically. After she told her friends that Yusei's her boyfriend, the word got out to the press. Being the senator's daughter and the ex-infamous Black Rose Witch, it was hard for her to evade from the paparazzi every single day as they questioned her from serious question to the most ridiculous questions that weren't even true. Luckily for Akiza, Yusei was always there to protect her from the paparazzi and the press. When Akiza told her parents that Yusei's her boyfriend, Mr. Hideo Izinski was surprised because he remembered when he had asked for Yusei's help (to save Akiza in her comatose state); he said that he would be in debt to Yusei. This was not the kind of debt that Senator Izinski was thinking of but as long as Yusei made his daughter is happy, he's happy. After a few more months of dating, Mr. Izinski accepted Yusei part of the Izinski family.
Yusei and Akiza weren't the only one dating, Jack and Carly became a couple four months later. For a long time, Jack has developed some feelings for the reporter girl but he hasn't been able to comprehend his feelings to her. It wasn't until Crow knocked some sense to him and made him realize that he loves Carly. Carly is the only girl that was able to lend a hand when he was down, as he was there to save her when she became a Dark Signer. He was disappointed when Carly couldn't remember what happened to her when she was a Dark Signer. There were some things that they said but Carly couldn't remember it all. She'd spend many nights trying to figure out what they had said. So, Carly decided to confront Jack and let her know what they had said during that time. Carly really did like Jack, a lot, and she did want more than his friendship but sometimes she worried that Jack wouldn't like her back since she thought that maybe he wanted to be with someone who is smart and good-looking. Carly was the complete opposite of being Jack's dream girl. Jack surprised Carly by admitted to her to have liked her more than a friend. He told her that he loves her. With that, they became a couple.
To Carly's surprise, Mina accepted her relationship with Jack. Mina decided to be friends with Carly and Jack. Although she might not have Jack as her boyfriend, she knew that if she had him as her boyfriend, he would be unhappy. Mina didn't want to see Jack unhappy. Mina was sad at first when she saw Jack and Carly dating but then she realized: working for Jack for two years as his assistant she knew nothing about him. She only admired him as a fan and as a man. It only took Carly a few days to get Jack open up to her. Even during the war with the Dark Signers, Mina could see that Jack really cared about Carly. Mina decided to leave Jack alone and find her true love.
Trudge decided to make a move on Mina that within a few months, they were dating. They weren't officially going out like a couple but they were going out as friends. Mina knew that Trudge has feelings for her but she couldn't return her feelings to him. But she knew that maybe one day she will learn to like him back.
As for Crow, since he's the only guy without a girlfriend, is happy to be single because he didn't have to worry about spending his money on dates or buying gifts. Although he's old enough to be dating, he would rather do his job. It's not that he's afraid of dating or that he's not interested in women, he would rather take things slow and find the girl of his dreams one day.
Leo and Luna are still in Duel Academy. Leo hasn't changed a bit. He's still the same energetic young boy that he is when he was just eleven years old. He still has the usual hairstyle but he has matured a bit. Luna, on the other hand, had gone through some small changes. Her usual pigtails now falls towards her shoulders and her body has also changed from flat to curvy body but she's still growing. Both twins have grown a bit taller. Luna's personality hasn't changed a bit since she still the most serious and most responsible one than her twin brother.
Akiza checks herself in the mirror one last time as she's ready to leave with her boyfriend Yusei. She makes sure that her makeup is not too heavy or too light and that her dress isn't too girly or too over dressed. Finally she goes out of her room and heads downstairs to the living room where Yusei is waiting for her to arrive. When Yusei sees Akiza coming down, he is utterly speechless. There she was standing like a goddess that she really is as he walks to her and gives her a quick peck on the lips.
"Hey there beautiful," Yusei greeted her and continued to kiss her.
"Hey there handsome," she said in between kisses, "I missed you."
"I missed you too," he gave her another quick peck on her lips, "So are you ready to celebrate our first year of anniversary?"
"Yes, yes I am." Akiza hugged him and rested her head on his shoulders. "So where are you going to take me tonight?" she whispered into his ears which made Yusei shiver in delight.
"It's a surprise." He nuzzled into her hair and inhales the sweet smell of strawberries. It was a heavenly smell! Yusei continued to nuzzle her that his lips brushed pass by her ears down to her neck.
Akiza smiled as she felt his breath breezing onto her skin, "Aren't you going to give me a hint?"
"Nope," he gave a gentle kiss on her neck, "like I said, it's a surprise." His lips pressed onto her shoulder.
Akiza pushed him back a little and pouted at him, "Not even one hint?"
Yusei couldn't resist the way Akiza was pouting but he refused to tell her anything, "Nope, but you look so cute when you pout." He leaned in to give her another kiss when she leaned back.
"No kisses for you until you tell me where we are going tonight." Akiza turned her back on Yusei as a sly smile began to form on her lips. She really did want him to kiss him but she wanted to know where he was going to take her.
He was enjoying how Akiza was teasing him but he wasn't going to lose in this small game, "Fine, but you'll see it when we get there. But, can I kiss you?"
She thought about it for a few seconds, "Nope, until you take me to our secret date location, then you can kiss me." She turned around and winked at him.
"Let's go. The sooner we get there, the sooner I can kiss you." It was out of character for Yusei to say that as Akiza had to cover her mouth from bursting into a fit of giggles.
Akiza couldn't help it but to laugh, "You know what, now that I think about it, maybe I'm not in a hurry to know where you're going to take me. Might as well that we stay here and…whoa!" She didn't finish what she was saying because Yusei carried her out of the house where his duel runner was parked.
He set her down and handed her a helmet as he quickly put his helmet; waiting patiently for his girlfriend to sit properly behind him. Akiza wrapped her arms around his waist as her head rested on his left shoulder; that was his cue to rev up his duel runner and take her to the secret date location. He drove her to the place where they confessed their love: the docks.
When they arrived to the docks, Akiza was surprised that Yusei would bring her back to where they talked about her becoming a turbo duelist and where they confessed their love to each other. She got off from his duel runner and handed her boyfriend the helmet as she ran to the edge of the sidewalk and closed her eyes as she inhaled the fresh air. She extended her arms out as she felt the air breezing her skin. Akiza felt Yusei behind her as he wrapping his arms around her waist and felt so happy. This is going to be the best night of her life.
New Domino City, Fifteen years in the future
An eight year old girl dressed in her Duel Academy uniform with raven black hair, cat shape cobalt blue eyes, and natural beige skin color was running for her dear life as someone was chasing her. She ran through the destructed city that used to be a clean and utopian city. Many buildings were knocked down while others were being burned to the ground. Some homeless people would loot stores and take anything that was valuable to them. It was a living nightmare. It was almost as if New Domino City was becoming into Satellite once more. It also looked like a ghost town since there weren't that many people. The citizens of New Domino City and Satellite were either killed or even sacrificed to four monsters that are destroying the city into pieces. The once blue and clear sky was now dark and eerie as four geoglyphs were visible in the sky.
The first two geoglyph were in the Satellite area. One was an indigo killer whale as it hung over the southern district of Satellite. The second geoglyph was a blue giant that was hovering over the northern district of Satellite. The last two geoglyphs were in New Domino City. The third geoglyph was an orange hummingbird as it towered over the old Arcadia Movement building. The last geoglyph was a green lizard and it was hovering over the new amusement park. The sound of people screaming was heard from a distance as the young girl quickens her pace.
The young girl felt his presence as she continued to run. No doubt about it, he was not far behind from her. The sound of his malicious laughter was heard while the young girl ran and ran hoping that he wouldn't catch her.
"Come back here you small brat. If I couldn't get your mother, I might as well that I'll get you," he sneered at the young girl who was running away from him.
"No! Stay away from me! You've already hurt my mommy and my daddy and I'll never forgive you!" she shouted at him. She ran into her house, slammed the door with force and looked for a place to hide from him. She knew that it would be useless to hide under the bed and in the closet. 'Now, where would I hide? It has to be a place that no one can find me. But where?' she thought. The girl tried to remember what her parents told her where to hide if they were ever in danger.
~Flashback~
A man with black-raven, spiky hair style with golden highlights, and cobalt blue eyes was telling his daughter about something. "If we are ever in danger, just remember that we have a secret pathway that can take you to the underground house that we built. Once you get there, stay there. Don't come out for any reason."
"Don't worry dad, I won't." The little girl replied and smiled at her father.
"That's my little girl." He ruffled through her hair.
~End Flashback~
The little girl was trying to find the secret pathway to the underground house until she felt someone grabbing her from behind and lifting her up. She was about to scream but the mysterious person covered her mouth. "Ssh! Do you want him to hear you?" the mysterious person hissed at her.
She was able to recognize the voice, "Auntie Luna?" The young girl mumbled into Luna's hand and pushed her hand away from her mouth. Luna turned the young girl around and she saw a woman with shoulder length teal hair and golden eyes. On her right arm, she has the front claw of the Crimson Dragon that was glowing.
"That's right, Aki, it's me your aunt. I'm here to guide you to the path to the underground house." Luna stated. It sounded like she was out of breath.
"Thank you so much, but how are we going to avoid him?" the girl named Aki asked to Luna while she was being set down.
"Don't worry about it. We already have someone distracting him while we escape. Now come on we can't waste anymore time." Luna pulled her surrogated niece outside of the house as they heard something boom behind them and ran into the garden. Aki heard his voice and the sound of a mechanical dragon being summoned. She knew who was facing this madman as they ran into a maze until they were out. They ran for another few more minutes until they reached up to the woods.
Luna and Aki stop for a while to catch their breaths as Luna mentally called her beloved dragon, "Ancient Fairy Dragon, how close are we from the underground house?" she asked.
Ancient Fairy Dragon appeared on her side as Aki was relieved to see her, "We're almost close. Your brother is doing a good job distracting him."
"Ancient Fairy Dragon, where's mommy and daddy?" Aki asked.
The dragon looked at her, "I'm sorry Aki but your mom and dad had to escape from him, so I really don't know where they're at, but rest assure that your mom is doing fine with your dad."
Aki felt relieved to have heard that her parents were okay but she couldn't get this bad feeling that something bad was about to occur. She shook her head and asked, "What about Uncle Jack and Auntie Carly and their kids?"
"About that, you see…" the dragon looked away from her.
"What happened to them?" Aki almost yelled at Ancient Fairy Dragon. She felt someone touching her shoulders. She turned around and saw Luna with a sad expression. "Why are you so sad Auntie Luna?"
Luna wasn't sure if she should let Aki know what was going on right now. The way Aki was staring at Luna made her even more nervous than before. If she didn't tell Aki the truth, sooner or later Aki will find out the truth from someone else other than her. She took in a breath and said, "You see, Aki, your Auntie Carly turned against us and now is fighting along with him. Jack made me take both Jake and Violet to the underground house, so Jack is fighting to get Carly back to normal."
"No it can't be true!" Aki felt her knees shaking with fear. "What about Uncle Crow and Kalin? Are they okay?" she asked with a hint of fear and nervousness.
"No Aki, Crow is fighting with Kalin. He too turned against us."
'Why? Why did I ever listen to him?' Aki began to wonder, 'He told me that he would help me to control my psychic powers but all he ever wanted was to get revenge on mom and dad. It's my entire fault that I helped him get what he wanted. Now because of me, I don't know where my parents are. Mom, dad, please forgive me. I only wanted to control my powers so the kids at school won't tease me,' she thought as a tear formed in the corner of her cobalt blue eyes and fell on her knees.
"Come on Aki, we have to move. You'll probably feel better when you see Jake and Violet," Luna said as she pulled her surrogate niece up to the secret underground house. They ran for another ten minutes until they reached up to a tree trunk. "Here we are," Luna lifted up the lid. It was no ordinary tree trunk. Inside the trunk was a tunnel that leads them to the house. Luna hoisted herself up and then carried Aki up (since she couldn't reach the tree trunk's entrance) as she climbed down the ladder first as she waited for her niece to follow her lead. When Luna reached at the bottom of the tunnel, she waited for Aki to get down.
After Aki reached at the bottom of the tunnel, Luna climbed back up the ladder to close the lid and made sure that no one was aware of the secret hideout. When the coast was clear she closed the lid and climbed back down to meet up with Aki. Luckily in the tunnel, there were lights that guided them to the house. Luna dragged Aki into the tunnel as they reached up to the house. When they reached up to the house, Luna knocked the door three times.
"Who's there?" someone asked with a demanding tone.
"It's me Jake, Luna, I've brought Aki with me." The door was opened and revealed a young boy about eight years old who resemblances like Jack Atlas…in everything, from his looks to personality except for the color of his eyes. He had the same color as his mother: blue-grey eyes.
"Auntie Luna, thank goodness that you're okay," a young girl ran up to Luna and hugged her. She was about five years old with long ebony hair and has light purple eye color. The young girl resembles like her mother in look and personality but she has some of her fathers' traits. They young girl saw Aki next to Luna, "Aki, thank goodness that you're okay too." She noticed that Aki has tears strolling down her cheeks, "Why are you crying Aki?"
Aki wiped away the tears from her face, "I'm not crying Violet. I have something in my eye," she rubbed her eyes as she tried to convince Violet that she was not crying. Violet seem convinced but Jake wasn't. He was sure that Aki was crying for a reason and he was going to get her to tell him. Aki felt a pair of blue-grey eyes piercing at her. She stopped rubbing her eyes and saw Jake staring at her, "What?"
"I don't believe you Aki." Jake said while he crossed his arms over his chest, "My sister just asked you why you are crying."
"I already said that I'm not crying." Aki retaliated in a haste tone, "I have something in my eye and I think I took it out." She wiped her hand on her skirt trying to prove to Jake that she was cleaning her hands.
"Come on you guys we have to go inside and wait for Leo to come. We can't stay out here all night." Luna said as they walked into the house.
The house was smaller than the mansion that Aki's parents have but it was very comfortable to move around. There is a big screen TV that showed them what was going outside the hideout and on the far left of the house, there is food storage that has every kind of food from canned food to packages of food would last for a whole year. There were also enough drinks in the storage closet. On the right side of the house, there are two king size beds and three full beds each belong to someone. The first two king size beds belong to Aki's and Jake's parents while the three full beds belong to Luna, Leo and Crow. In the center of the room, there are three computers ready to be used.
Aki went to her king size bed and laid on it. Luna went to the screen and waited for her brother to arrive while Violet went back to the king size bed and fell asleep. Jake wanted to know why Aki was crying. He approached Aki while she was lying on her bed thinking about today's event, he spoke, "Aki please, I want to know why you were crying."
Aki grumbled, "Jake I already told you something was in my eye."
"Lair!" he shouted at her. Luna turned away from the screen and looked a Jake as she pointed over to the other king size bed where his little sister was sleeping while she had a finger over her lips telling him to be quiet. He realized his minor mistake and nodded. Luna turned back to the screen and Jake knew that he wanted to talk to her in private. So he lowered his voice, "You were crying and I want to know why. I'm not going to leave you alone until you tell me why."
Aki had no choice but to tell him. If he was going to be persistent to know then he'll get his answer, "Do you want to know why?" she asked as she sat up on her bed.
Jake sat next to her, "Yes I do Aki," he saw in Aki's eyes that whatever she was going to say, he wasn't going to like it at all.
Aki lowered her voice so that Jake could only hear, "The reason I was crying earlier ago is that I was the one who started all this mess."
"What are you talking about Aki?" Jake looked at Aki with confusion written on his face as he tilted his head, "What do you mean that you started with this mess?"
She sighed in defeat, "What I'm saying is that I'm the one who helped Sayer revive the Dark Signers and the Earthbound Immortals again. I'm the reason why your mother is a Dark Signer again; because of me your mother is fighting against us and your dad."
Jake couldn't believe what she just said, "But how?"
"Remember when I stayed afterschool for a club activity?" she asked Jake while he was still confused. What did her afterschool activities had to do with what's happening to New Domino City's destruction?
"Yeah what about it?" the young boy scratched his head.
"Well, I never was involved in a club," Aki finally confessed the truth. "After school ended, I went over to the old Arcadia Movement headquarters and found a man who said that he could help me control my powers so the kids at school won't make fun of me and call me a monster. So he trained me to control my psychic powers but little did I know that he was actually Sayer." She shuddered in disgust as she mentioned his name, "He never told me his name but he said that he was one of mom's closest friends. He just wanted me to call him 'Divine'. But when he asked me about my life he would always say something bad about my family especially about my mom, dad and Auntie Carly. He called my mom the 'Black Rose Witch' while he called your mom 'little mousey' and my dad a 'Satellite trash'."
"Black Rose Witch? Little mousey? Satellite trash? But why would he call them that?"
"Because he said that my mom used to be the Black Rose Witch and he also said that my mom was his personal favorite student. As for your mom, he said that when he met her she was small and weak like a mouse. And as for my dad, he would always say some bad cruse words."
Anger was boiling inside of Jake, "No one calls my mom a mouse! She's not weak!"
"Calm down Jake and would you let me finish what I was telling you please?" Jake grumbled a yes as Aki continued, "As I was saying before, he would always ask about my life and bad talk about everyone that he knew and I wasn't going to allow him to talk about them like that, I threaten him to leave him. When I said that, he said that all the kids would still make fun of my special powers and called me a monster and that I was his only friend that can help me control my powers. He said that I was nothing without him and the truth is that it's true. Without him, I felt so weak."
"But why Aki?" he asked, "Your parents already love you just the way you are. Your dad already talked to you about your powers being special. He even told you about your mother's past. Isn't that enough proof that they love you no matter what you have?"
Aki felt her eyes stinging with tears but she refuse to cry in front of him, "Yes I know that Jake but I want other people to not look at me like a freak. I want to feel like a normal, eight year old girl. Not some girl that has some freaky, supernatural powers like her mother."
"Aki," Jake place a hand on her shoulder and gave a small squeeze of reassurance, "I see you as a normal girl not a girl with special powers. Not everyone is flawless. For example, Auntie Luna can see and talk to duel monster spirits and she's not embarrassed about it."
"But Auntie Luna is a different story," Aki raised her voice at him, "she doesn't have psychic powers like me and mom. Can't you see that Jake? Having psychic powers like mine is like being cursed with a bad spell. I know dad always told me that my special ability is mine to appreciate but how can I appreciate it when everyone makes fun of me?" she shrieked at Jake as the tears that she held back began to stroll down on her cheeks.
Just then, Luna stood up from her chair and saw on the screen that her brother was coming towards the hideout along with someone else that she knew. 'Thank goodness that Leo's okay. It seems that he bought Crow along,' Luna thought comfortably. She faced the two children, "Kids I want you to stay here and don't come out, understood?"
Aki cleaned her tears away and looked at her aunt, "Yes."
"Jake you know what do to right?" Luna asked him.
"Right," he replied. With that, Luna went out of the house and went into the tunnel.
After Luna stepped out through that door, a door appeared in front of Jake and Aki. The door opened and revealed a young woman who's about twenty-five years old with long black hair that reached up to her knees; she has dark green eye color, and her skin color was a bit darker than Aki's skin color. She is wearing a dark green skirt with a bronze-color t-shirt and black flat shoes. Aki was able to recognize the woman, "Reila, is that really you?"
"Aki, I'm glad that you're okay and safe." Aki ran up to Reila and hugged her. Reila hugged her back as she looked to her right and saw Violet sleeping, "Jake, how are you?"
"Not so good." Jake looked away from Reila, "My mom is a Dark Signer again and my dad is trying to get her back to normal."
"So you already know, huh," she looked at the sleeping five year old girl, "Does Violet know what happened to her mother?" she asked with concern.
Jake looked down, "Unfortunately, she does. She was crying when dad left us with Auntie Luna and found out that our mom needs to be rescue."
Reila let go of Aki and walked up to the bed where Violet is sleeping. She sat on the bed and stroked her hair. Violet look calm and peaceful while she slept. Reila bend down and kissed her on her head, Violet moved a little bit but she resumed sleeping. "I have news about you parents Aki."
This caught the eight year old girl's attention, "Really? Are they okay? Where are they?" Aki bombed Reila with questions.
"Whoa there," she placed her hand on Aki's shoulder, "Calm down for a minute." Aki stopped asking questions as she looked up at Reila, "I have some bad news about your mother."
Aki didn't like what she just heard, "What happened to mommy? Is she okay?" as new fresh tears were been built in her eyes.
"Aki you have to be strong," Reila gently gripped her shoulders, "I'm sorry but," she stopped talking. She wasn't sure if Aki ready to hear the bad news but she had no other choice, even if it meant to cause the young girl some small pain, "…but your mom is in coma. Your mom just dueled with Misty and she just used up all her powers and that drained her completely. So, your father is doing his best to wake her up again."
Tears leaked out of Aki's eyes as she just heard what just happened to her mother, 'No it can't be. Mommy, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. I never wanted to hurt you in any way. I only wanted to control my powers and be a normal girl. Now because of me you're in coma.' Aki jumped on to her bed and cried as she covered her face with her arms. She didn't want Jake to see her crying. Reila noticed Aki's body began to shiver as Aki continued to cry that she went over to Aki and rubbed her back as she tried her best to calm her down.
Three knocks were heard and Jake ran up to the door and asked who was there. When he heard Luna's voice, he opened the door and in came Luna followed by Crow holding onto Leo. Crow looked like he just came back from a war. He has some cuts on his arms and there were some deep gashes on his left thigh. Leo, on the other hand, has some third degree burns on his arm and legs. He also has black soot covering his face.
"Uncle Leo, Uncle Crow, where's my dad?" Jake asked with the same tone that his father used when he demanded for something.
"I'm sorry Jake but Leo and Crow can't talk right now. They need some medical treatment. Can you get me the first aid kit?" Luna stopped talking and saw Reila trying to comfort Aki. "Reila do you have any news on Aki's parents?"
Reila responded, "Yes I do but first take care of Crow and your brother first and then we'll talk about them."
Luna didn't complain and helped Crow get to his bed and laid him there as Leo managed to sit at his own bed. Jake came back with the first aid kit and handed over to Luna. She quickly tore Crow's clothes as she took some cloth and alcohol out of the first aid kit. She cleaned the blood that was oozing out of Crow's cuts and she managed to stop the blood, then she quickly wrapped his cuts with a bandage. After she was done curing Crow, Luna went to the bathroom and wet some towels to cool down Leo's burns on his skin.
After Luna was done treating her brother and Crow, she saw Aki and Jake sleeping in their own separate bed that she decided to talk to Reila about Aki's parents. "So what happened to Aki's parents?" she asked as she sat next to Reila on Aki's bed.
"Her mother is in coma. She used all of her psychic powers to defeat Misty in a duel." She answered with a hint of sadness.
Luna felt a pang in her heart that she placed her hand over her heart and asked, "What about her father? How is he doing?"
"Not good." Reila nodded her head, "He's doing his best to wake her up. Not even with the help of the Crimson Dragon can wake her up now; his power has weakened."
"Oh no," Luna looked down in defeat, "Is there another way to wake her up in her comatose state?"
"I'm afraid there is no other way…unless…" Reila trailed off as she thought about something.
"Unless what?" Luna looked up and stared at Reila.
"Unless if we can go back into the past and stop Sayer causing this destruction, then we could have everything back to normal." Reila smiled for a moment but then she frowned, "But you know I can't change the past. I mean I can go back into the past but I can't do anything. Someone has to go and warn your younger selves that Sayer's alive and that he's planning to take over the world again."
"But how do we know that Sayer's alive in the past?"
"Remember when the Earthbound Immortals were defeated?" Reila asked Luna.
"Of course I remember what about it?"
"When the Earthbound Immortals were defeated, the souls that they captured were returned, am I correct?" Luna nodded. "Well, since everyone's souls were brought back, Sayer somehow managed to escape from Misty's Earthbound Immortal and hid for a long time. He waited until Aki's father to defeat Z-ONE so his plan would be carried out."
Luna began to ponder at Reila's assumption. If that was true, where was he hiding this whole time? "So how many years in the past has Sayer been planning his revenge?"
"Fifteen years in the past."
While Luna and Reila were discussing on who is going to go back in the past, Aki heard the whole conversation. Sayer had already planned to get his revenge fifteen years ago. If anyone should go back in the past it would be her. Aki needed to go to the past and stop Sayer herself, 'But how can I do that, I need one of Reila's time key to take me back in time. Maybe when Reila is asleep then I can take the key and warn the others from the past about Sayer's revenge.'
Two hours later, everyone is asleep. Aki got up from her bed slowly without moving Reila from her sleep. She quickly grabbed her shoes and tiptoed her way around the bed to Reila's side and took one of her time keys from her pocket. When she was able to pull out the key from Reila she put the key around her neck and hid it in her shirt. Aki ran out of the house without making a sound. As Aki walked her way in the tunnel, she puts on her shoes as pulled out her deck and called her friend, Black Star Dragon.
"Black Star Dragon, are you there?" Aki whispered.
A black dragon appeared next to Aki. The dragon looks like Stardust Dragon but the difference is that this dragon is black and has a smaller nose than Stardust. His wings were also like Stardust but it was more feathery like Black Rose's wings and his eyes are the same shape as Black Rose but it was yellow instead. Black Star looked around his surroundings and noticed where he was at. "Yes, what's wrong? Why are you here and not in there?" the dragon pointed at the house.
"Everything's wrong, because of me, mom is in coma and we're going to go back in time to stop Sayer's revenge from happening." Aki said as she closed her eyes trying to hold back her tears.
"What?" Black Star exclaimed, "But how are we going to go back in time?"
"Easy, I took a time key from Reila." She responded bashfully.
"You did what?" the dragon shrieked. Aki shushed him to be quiet but he continued to talk loudly, "Aki I think what you're going to do is a bad idea. You know if you go in the past and make one mistake you can alter the future."
"But I need to go into the past to stop Sayer's revenge. I want you to come with me. Please?" She began to beg him.
The dragon looked at his mistress as she gave him the puppy eye look. He had no other choice but to go with Aki in the past, "Oh alright, I go with you."
"Yes!" Aki puts her deck away as Black Star Dragon disappears from Aki's side as she climbs up the ladder. When she reaches up the ladder, she slowly opens the lid little by little and takes a peek around her surrounding, just to make sure that no one is around. The coast was clear as Aki lifted the lid and made her way out. As she jumped out of the tree trunk she closed the lid without making a sound. Aki hit the ground with a thud. She got up and cleaned the dirt of her skirt as she was thinking of which way should she run to.
Aki doesn't know the woods very well but she knew that she shouldn't be out by herself. She takes out Black Star Dragon from her pocket and he appears next to her. The black dragon notices that Aki is feeling a bit tense, "What's wrong Aki?"
"I don't know if I'm ready to go to the past and stop Sayer by myself," she answered truthfully.
Black Star Dragon floated in front of her and tried to cheer her up, "Don't worry Aki. I'm sure that your parents from the past will help you stop him."
"Do you really think so?" she looked at her ace monster.
"I'm sure." Black Star purred at his mistress and nudged his head against Aki's shoulder. Aki couldn't help it but to smile, "Now that I got you smiling, let's go back in the past."
"Right," Aki pulled out the key from her shirt and activated the key. A door appeared in front of her and Black Star as she opens the door. A bright flash of light shined on them as the light started to dim down. Aki stepped into the door as Black Star Dragon follows behind her.
Someone was hiding in the trees as it saw Aki and Black Star Dragon going through the door. "Follow her where ever she goes."
"Right," The door was closing and the unknown figure was able to go through the door on time.
Aki and Black Star Dragon were wondering through infinite time and space as they were looking for her parents from the past. Many miles back, the unknown figure was trying to find which way Aki went. There were many doors and it didn't know where the doors would take him. Aki found the door that would take them back fifteen years in the past. Satisfied, Aki opened the door and walked in. But when she walked in she fell.
"Black Star Dragon, help me!" Aki screamed.
"I'm coming Aki." Black Star Dragon speeded towards her but he wasn't able to get a hold on her because he passed by her with great velocity.
"Black Star Dragon!"
"Aki!"
They both kept falling down at great speed. Aki doesn't know how long she will fall as the wind blows her hair and her face. 'Please, someone save me.'
Present Day
Yusei and Akiza just had a romantic dinner by the docks as they are now standing by the docks watching the sunset. Yusei is thinking about Akiza and how good she looks as the sun is reflecting her light skin. The sun illuminated her skin with golden rays as she looked like a goddess. Everything in their relationship is going so well.
It was time for Yusei to take his girlfriend home since she has a big day tomorrow. "It's time to go home Akiza."
"Do I really have to?" Akiza asked him as she pouted in sadness, "I'm having a good time being with you and I don't want this day to end so soon." She turned around and looked at him.
"Yes. I know this day is wonderful and I too don't want to end this but we have to go home."
"Let's stay here for another hour just the two of us, alone. Please?" she looked at Yusei with pleading eyes.
He couldn't deny her when she looked at him like that but she really needed to go home, "I'm sorry Akiza but we must go home. Maybe some other time when you don't have class to attend to," Yusei grabbed her hand and pulled her towards his duel runner but he was pulled back into Akiza's arms.
"Where do you think you're going?" she asked as she leaned up to him and captured his lips. Yusei kissed her back as Akiza held onto his shoulder. This kiss was more passionate than the previous kisses that they shared; every time they kissed they seem to be addicted to each other.
Yusei broke the kiss, "I'm taking you home Akiza. I mean it," His lips were burning from the kiss, "Don't you want your anniversary gift?"
"You have a present for me?" she asked in a surprise tone, "Yusei, you shouldn't have brought me anything."
"Come," he pulled Akiza up to his duel runner, "close your eyes."
"Are you going to trick me?"
"Of course not, but do you trust me?"
Akiza thought for a moment, "Maybe…"
"Akiza…"
"I'm kidding, of course I trust you." She gave him a quick peck as she closed her eyes. Yusei took out a small box out from his jacket and opened the box. Inside the box is a diamond heart shape ring. "Can I look now?"
"Yeah, you can open them."
Akiza opened her eyes and saw Yusei holding out a ring, "Yusei…I…I don't know what to say."
Yusei took the ring out of the box and placed the ring on her finger, "Akiza I want you to have this ring as a symbol of my love to you. What I'm trying to say is that I want you to be my fiancée."
Tears were forming in her eyes, "Yusei…of course I want to be your fiancée. But are you sure that you want to marry me in the future?"
"Yes; remember what I told you last year in this very place, I want you to be my future wife."
"Yusei…" Akiza said in an awe tone.
"Ssh, don't say anything," Yusei captured her lips as Akiza let out a small moan escape from her lips. "Let's go home."
"Okay," This time Akiza didn't complain as she looked at the ring that was on her finger. Yusei handed her the extra helmet as he was ready to put on his helmet.
A pink cloud was forming above Yusei and Akiza's head. The cloud got bigger and bigger until a card came out and hit Yusei on his head. Yusei felt something light hit his head and looked at the ground and saw a duel monster card. How could a duel monster card hit him on his head? The pink cloud that was floating over them faded away. Yusei bends down and picked up the card as he looked at the card, 'Black Star Dragon' he read in his mind. He didn't know who this card belongs to or how it even got here in the first place.
Yusei looked at his girlfriend, "Akiza is this card yours?" he handed the card to her.
Akiza looked at the card, Black Star Dragon. "No Yusei, this isn't mine. Where did you find this?" She observed the features that Black Star Dragon has.
"On the ground. It fell on my head." Yusei looked up at the night sky and noticed nothing odd or particular. The only thing he saw was the sun setting on the horizon and some stars starting to appear. He held his arms out for some reason. He felt that something else might fall from the sky.
"How is that possible?" she asked. Just as Yusei was about to answer her question, the same pink cloud began to form once more as a girl comes out and knocks Akiza down. Akiza felt something hard and heavy falling onto her as she fell on the ground. The girl landed onto Yusei's arms as he was surprised to have caught a little girl. What was going on? Why are things falling out of the sky out of nowhere? Everything happened so quickly that Yusei was confused.
Aki felt that she just smacked onto someone but at the same time she felt warm, safe and secure. Someone was holding her but whom. Did she really make it back into the past? She opened her eyes slowly and she couldn't believe who was holding her. She saw her father holding her, 'Daddy.' She looked around her surroundings and realized that she has finally made it back into the past; fifteen years in the past to be exact.
Yusei looked at the girl that landed on his arms, 'No way,' Yusei mentally exclaimed, 'this girl looks like Akiza but her eye and hair color is different. Who is this girl?' he begins to ponder in utter shock.
Slowly Akiza regain her conscious and saw Yusei holding a small girl in her arms. "Ow…Hey who are you?" she asked while she rubbed the back of her head and neck. Akiza got up and she too was surprised on how this little girl came out of nowhere and knocks her down.
The girl turned around and instantly she was able to recognize the person that she knocked down. 'Mommy.' Akiza was shocked, this girl resembles like her but she doesn't; her hair and eye color were different. "My name is Akiza."
A/N: Well that's chapter one for you. Hate or love it? Confused? Let me clarify it for you, yes, Aki is Akiza and Yusei's future daughter but they don't know that. As you guys probably know in Sailor Moon R, Rini and Serena don't get along very well. In my story, I want Akiza and Aki to get along in which you'll be seeing in the upcoming chapters of this story. This chapter also foreshadows that Carly and Jack are going to have two children of their own in the future. And why did I refer Sayer as him? That will be explained later on in the future chapters. Chapter 2 is still being processed and edited for the meantime.
