Authors note: Alright everyone. I'm sorry...really I am. I haven't had much time to work on the other stories much but since I'm up right now I decided I'll start a series of drabbles for everyone to enjoy while I try and work on the other ones. I hope you all enjoy these and I'm sorry this first one is so sad haha. I wanted to go with a sad, futuristic setting with Jou sacrificing himself for his home and family.
And yes, red eyes and blue eyes are both girls and robots but they still have emotions. I wanted to go with the female version of the dragons since I've seen a few male or het versions of them. I actually kind of like them like this so look forward to seeing more of Akane and Kisara haha.
Also, if you all want sequels to any of these drabbles please tell me I wouldn't mind doing them. And remember comments keep this dragon happy 3. Well as I said I do hope you all enjoy. Ttfn Tata for now!

It seemed that the wind right then was so calm and peaceful–despite the destruction that lay around the two robot pilots–it was almost like time had stopped to give the two time to recollect on old memories letting them feel all the heart ache from before. A crackling sound over the black dragon robots transmission startled Jounouichi. Too bad, he was just getting to the good part in his memories where he and Seto first met.
"Jou please! Listen to me! We can stop them." Seto's desperate voice was music to Jou's ears. He needed to hear how much Seto still wanted him. He needed to hear how much Seto wanted him to stay alive despite the prophecy foretelling his demise from the beginning. Ironic, he thought to himself, such a beautiful day is planned out for the day of my death.
"I have to." Jou replied sadly, flipping a switch, red eyes wings flapping and speeding up as she tried to catch the wind beneath her black mechanical wings. "It's the only way to save us." He terminated his end of the transmission, listening to Seto scream and beg him to stop. It was strange to hear such urgency in his lovers voice. He was use to being the one freaking out and crying for help.
"Ready Akane?" Jounouichi asked quietly to his robot, his eyes not leaving Kisara's bound form until he heard the high pitched whirring of the enemies coming their way. The destructive little bots hovering above the broken city in one large cluster. Both rider and robot felt such sadness as they looked over their broken city but they were going to save what was left! They had to. If not for the city then for their friends, family...Seto and Kisara. They had to. The soft drone of the robots voice calmed Jou as he started to shake in fear.
"We make our own destiny, Jou. We can turn back now or...we can die fighting for the people we promised to always protect." The robot cooed to him and he wiped his eyes free of tears flipping his communicator back on. He just...wanted to say goodbye to Seto.
"Seto. Seto please. Understand that I'm doing this to protect our home. I love you, Seto nothing can ever change that and that's why I'm doing this. I'd rather die then know that I've failed any of you and let you die. One sacrifice means nothing when compared to a million sacrifices!" The tears just kept coming and even Akane was making soft cries of pain, Kisara responding to them with equal sorrow.
A pair of voices sputtered through on the communicator and Jou nearly sobbed loudly. Shizuka and Yugi were crying and asking him to come home.
"We'd rather die with you then see you die, brother!" Shizuka cried, whimpering into the mic and Jou prayed his friends were holding onto her tightly for him. He covered his eyes and held a hand over his heart where it beat rapidly in pain.
"I'm sorry. I love you all." He murmured back this time cutting the whole transmission off so he wouldn't have to hear them anymore. If he did he would turn back and their whole world would be destroyed. "Lets go Akane...I can't stay." The dragon let out a low cry of sympathy and Jou could practically feel her nuzzle him in comfort.
"I cannot either my friend." She replied and soon she was in the air, hovering for a moment as Jou calculated and went over the strategy.
"Alright...come get us you little fuckers!" Jou gritted his teeth and fired rapid shots into the cluster of robots, stirring them up and angering them. As soon as he knew that he had provoked them into a chase he guided Akane away from the city and the others. He was the distraction.
Seto couldn't believe his eyes. Jounouichi was actually doing this. He could feel Kisara's heart break with his as he watched them leave. If only Jou hadn't bound him to the ground in the midst of battle! Maybe then they could have fought together and Jou would have been spared. "I can't Kisara...I can't let him go like this. Goddamn you, fates!" Seto slammed his fists down against the control panel and the white robot hummed in agreement her cries going unheard by her mate that was flying away.
"Mokua is trying to get through to us Seto. We must say goodbye." Kisaras low, cold tone made him nod solemnly but he smiled just a bit knowing they were going after them. "Mokuba?" Seto asked softly switching on his radio to get to his brother.
"S-Seto...Jou...he's leaving?" Seto winced softly at the teary sound of his brothers voice and he chocked back his own need to cry. "Y-yea..." Mokuba proceeded to cry in anguish at the thought of his friend leaving to protect them. "Don't let him...don't let him die alone big brother! I love you and Jou so much but don't let him die alone! Kisara, Seto please!" Mokuba's voice was soon muffled and his cries were hushed. Seto thanked the gods for Yugi and Yami being there for him.
"I love you too Moki...I won't let him...I promise." With that, Seto switched his communicator off and he set his stare of the floating black cloud of bots going by.
"Kisara!" He suddenly called to his robot whose wings sprung open, snapping the ropes that had once bound them in an instant. Seto smirked in satisfaction as Kisara growled in approval.
"Lead the way, master." She droned roughly, nearing anger and energy as her own wings twisted and fought in the air. Within a matter of seconds she was in the air, speeding off to chase their mates.
