Hi Burntree here! By the way this story doesn't have any romance at all ( As much as I can tell ). This is my first time writing, so be nice! Well here goes:
"Ancient Spirit Dragon, Please protect Ruka for me." Rua implored just Aporia's monster drained all of his duel energy and his life with it.
"No, Rua!" Ruka was yelling brokenly, as she saw her twin brother fall, a limp figure. She couldn't take it anymore! She fell to her knees, consumed with grief knowing she would be the next to follow her brother.
Her heart was pounding as the needle in her heart digged deeper and deeper. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't get up by herself, yet alone duel. Far away she could barely hear Jack demanding why she was getting weaker. She already knew before Aporia answered:
She was dying from the straining of this life draining duel, and burdened with Rua's death. Ruka was falling towards the darkness, the heart now jumping out of her chest...
"Ruka! Breakfast is ready!"
She woke up by the vigorous pounding of her bedroom door. Ruka could feel cold sweat running down her back as she adjusted to her environment. She was home, It was just a dream, a nightmare that kept haunting her ever since they returned from the Arc Cradle. A nightmare that reminded her again and again of that dark, painful times.
Everything went back to normal, after Yusei defeated Zone. She, Rua, and Aki went back to Duel Academy, and Yusei, Jack and Crow to their apartment, along with Bruno. So why was she still having this dream? What was wrong with her?
"Ruka, seriously! Yusei is picking us up, remember? We are not going to be late!"
Rua's loud voice broke into her train of thought. She could hear her brother coming up the stairs. She sighed. Even after Rua became the sixth signer, her twin didn't really change much.
"Okay, I'm awake!"
Ruka hurriedly said, swallowing her dream-brought fear.
"Good, then let's go!"
Rua cried, walking back down. Ruka rolled her eyes. The only time her brother will get up earlier than Ruka was when Yusei will pick them up.
She didn't want Rua to know she was having this dream. Her brother had his own share of terror during that duel. Maybe even worse than Ruka. He died for heaven's sake! For now she will keep it quiet from everyone.
"Are you sure that is the right choice, little one?"
Regulus, the magistic spirit lion that has been her guardian ever since the Dark Signer's duel, asked in her mind. Well, Ruka sighed, almost everyone.
"Yes, Regulus, everyone needs a break from the Arc Cradle. Especially Rua. I can handle this myself." Ruka answered back.
" Your friends will disaprove of your actions when they find out." Regulus said.
"That is why they are not going to know at all. I'm sure the dreams will fade back when the time passes." Ruka tried to convince herself.
" If you say so..."
Regulus still seemed doubtful. But this was not the time to argue. She scrambled from her bed, getting ready for school. As she stepped out of her room, however, she couldn't help wondering if she will ever get over the memory of Aporia's Duel.
Well, that is it! I know it's a bit short, but I need to know what you think. Please Review!
