Chapter 2: Hollows Reveal
14 Years Later…
After those three days, Yusei decided he couldn't just leave the life he had behind. He promised he would visit here and there, though.
To ensure he could use his powers safely, Miss Merlin gave him some gloves that were able to make sure he couldn't burn anything with his hands, as those were the main area that his powers activated. He was sure to always wear his normal jacket and outfit to ensure nothing could burn if any of his skin touched something.
The Ymbryne also gave him a small book on the hollows and Wights. This was to ensure he would always remember their weak points. But even so, Miss Merlin regularly watched Yusei as he grew, staying as her bird form.
Every other day of the week, Yusei returned to the time loop and said hello to his Peculiar friends and Miss Merlin. They were always happy to see him, even as he grew older.
Now, Yusei was standing on a helipad with Jack and his new friends from this time: Leo, Luna, and Akiza. Across from them was Director Rex Goodwin and his assistant Lazar. They were preparing to leave to fight the Dark Signers, their dark counterparts as they were the Crimson Dragon's, a dragon god of light and peace, Signers who protected the light.
Yusei looked down a bit, though. 'It's… almost time for me to choose,' he thought. 'Do I want to stay in this timeline after this? Or do I want to stay with Miss Merlin and the others in the time loop?'
Yusei was brought into the conversation when Goodwin said, "The mist is occurring at the Original Ener-D Reactor. And destiny is guiding the son of Professor Fudo, the developer of the Original Ener-D Reactor." The twins and Akiza looked at Yusei surprised. "It is your mission to defeat the Dark Signers and make the Original Ener-D Reactor revolve in the right direction," Goodwin continued. He turned to a helicopter as it landed. "I believe most of you already know your pilot."
Trudge emerged and almost immediately noticed Yusei. "You!" he growled.
"Hello, Trudge," Yusei greeted with a bored expression.
"Don't you 'hello' me! You little Satellite scum!" the officer responded angrily. Mina walked up to him and talked to him making him stop.
Everyone was about to board the helicopter when they noticed Yusei didn't move making Goodwin and the others look at him.
"Yes, Yusei?" Goodwin responded.
"After we defeat the Dark Signers and return everything to normal, I want you to promise that you'll complete the Daedalus Bridge," the Signer ordered.
"Do you intend to emulate the man from the legend?" Goodwin asked.
"If the story you told me is true, then there will be no reason to discriminate the people from Satellite if we complete this task," Yusei replied.
Goodwin paused to think before answering, "Very well."
Suddenly, though, a slam on the stairway door sounded out. "What was that?" Luna asked. Another bang hit and the door began to break and splinter. Yusei just stared in frustration. Now of all times?!
Finally, the door snapped and they all heard a growl but saw nothing… except Yusei. He saw yet another hollow. He had been fighting these things left and right, so he wasn't afraid of them anymore.
"Um…" Lazar muttered a bit fearful.
"Hey, look!" Leo exclaimed pointing to the shadow of the hollow. "Was is that?"
"Better question, why does Yusei seem so focused and frustrated?" Jack asked. "Does he know what that thing is?"
They looked at Yusei. "I do," he answered calmly.
"What is it, Yusei?" Akiza asked.
"It's a hollow," Yusei answered. "Get to safety now."
"Not without you, Yusei!" Luna responded. "I mean, you can't even see it except for its shadow."
"Actually, I can see it," he responded shocking them. "One of my peculiarities."
"Peculiar-what?" Jack asked.
"I'll explain later," Yusei replied.
They noticed the hollow look at Yusei before seeming to get tense and happy. "Yusei, you need to get away," Akiza told him.
"I've faced plenty of hollows before and survived. And it's because of my second peculiarity," he answered. He pulled off his gloves. "There's a reason why I always wear these gloves."
"And that is?" Jack asked.
They turned as the hollow stretched its dagger like arm at Yusei, ready to stab him. But just as it got close, Yusei grabbed it with lightning fast reflexes. They were all shocked to see it engulfed in burning flames. It stumbled back as it became more visible to the others, screaming out in pain.
When it finally fell to the ground dead, charred but completely visible, Yusei placed the gloves back on. They were all looking between him and the hollow shocked.
"Yusei, what did you just do?" Akiza asked.
"You're not the only one in this world with strong powers, Akiza," he replied. "Trust me, there are plenty of others like me. Different powers, but like me." They turned as Miss Merlin called out and Yusei nodded at it. It nodded back before flying away.
"What was that?" Luna asked.
"That was another Peculiar. A type of one known as an Ymbryne," Yusei replied. "I can explain this all later, though. When there isn't a chance those we don't want to hear this can hear."
"It is true that you need to leave quickly," Goodwin responded. "I hope you'll explain this to me as well, Yusei."
"We'll see, Goodwin," he responded before he got in the plane with the others and it took off.
