TWF: This scene took place in Tag Force Advent's world, where logic doesn't apply to it and it would be all in Normal Point of view—
Kira: Ah, screw that! Can I messed things up over here while you just sit back and do nothing about it?
TWF: But—
Kira: It's settle then! Alright, ladies and kids! I'm gonna tell you how my world works!
TWF: I got a bad feeling about this… and what happens to—
Kira: BACK TO ADVENTURE!
TWF: But—
Kira: Screw the rules, I have silver hair!
Arc 2: Revenge
Y'know, I don't like narrating much but I suppose I should tell you all how did we ended up on that world. Everything began in a time of piece; as society have reached its peak and the future is now in stable… and no screw ups. It was a time called… Yesterday.
Get it? No? Oh well, up to you then. Better get comfy cause there ain't gonna be a bathroom breaks! Here we go!
In my timeline, the scene took place one year after I manage to screw Z-One for good and say bye-bye to the Ark Cradle for good. We were all in the WRGP stadium and as of right now, the second tournament of WRGP starts up and we're in the final round as of right now. Good, because I REALLY need to let my steam off after a long time of hiatus!
Yes, I mean YOU, MY author! Stop being a bum and get your fingers typing on my story already!
*ahem* let's get back to this story.
It is then the MC with his VERY long pointy hair starts to speak up and gets the opening ceremony started. "Welcome and all to the second annual WRGP tournament! And I'm your host, the guy NoOneBotheredToName!"
Come to think of it… what IS his name? That's the biggest mystery of all mankind.
"And as of right now, the finals are about to get on the road!" the MC gave a powerful speech, making the rest of the crowds go haywire. It is then he shifted his attention to the big screen nearby. "These new challengers are here to try to pry off the title from these three individuals, the current champions!"
And~ with the flashy light and a few explosions later, the screen starts to show some greatest moments of how my team beat the crap out of Z-One instead of Yusei's group and won the championship at the same time. Ah, how wonderful my past year with that guy… oh, while there are some clips of the WRGP where the Yliaster incident is shown on the large monitor, including the climatic duel between me and Z-One, I was waiting IMpatiently and just revving my engine to make a sprint out of my pitstop already…
"Everybody listen! Making his way into the stadium, this person is famous for defeating Z-One from the world's destruction, followed by screwed over dozens of rules, which it also includes the normal spell cost rule; all to get to this far and because of his silver hair he continues to point out! His mastery of Fusion summoning has made him a crowd favorite and defeated numerous opponents with an awe-inspiring force!"
Touché, my good man. You have somehow made me a happy camper… just keep going.
"Ladies and gentlemen! He IS the 'Dark Hero', KIRA~ THANTOS~!
What, that's it?! Oh, great… oh well. As the screen shows my duel with my ace monster Evil Hero Dark Gaia, I simply speeds up and make my D-Wheel flew up high into the sky before landing on the ground and makes a full lap around the arena. Followed close behind me was my ace monster, Evil Hero Dark Gaia; spreading its wings across the arena and eventually comes to a stop behind me.
As I took off my helmet and shook my head for a bit, I simply raised my fist and shouted, "SCREW THE RULES! I HAVE SILVER HAIR!"
That quote of mine makes the crowd went wild in an instant. Just the way I like it! While waiting at the starting line, the MC picks up his microphone and starts to speak out loud once again. "And introducing his partner! From parts unknown! He has pulled his team out of many impossible duels with his Six Samurai deck! His X-Shaped scar and black hair makes him instantly recognizable to those duel-maniacs and duelists alike, especially to those who are egg burger lovers!" He just HAS to point out the obvious, doesn't he? "His ace monster Shi En will cause chaos in any duel with his strength and abilities with his samurais in his disposal!"
While Ryder was still waiting for the same place where they launched me earlier, they showed up some clips of him defeating random teams with his skills and such. The smoke starts to shoot out at his entrance place, which indicating he is ready for a lift off.
"Here he is, the spearhead of the team, Storm "The Wild Fang" Ryder!" and with that introduction, the entrance suddenly makes a cool explosion and my partner shoots through the smoke and eventually lands perfectly before he starts to take a full lap around the area. He's the guy with crimson red shirt with black pants with zippers on his knees, having the green headphone around his neck and of course, the 'X' mark between his eyes are as prominent as always. Behind him is his signature monster, Legendary Six Samurai – Shi En, as the samurai continues to fly over and even draws out his sword to do some mimics of slashing on the holographic wood. When that monster puts back his sword to its sheath, the cutting lines on the holographic wood can be seen before it eventually breaks apart, revealing the emblem of his deck, the Six Samurai.
When this guy parks next to me, he took a moment of listening to the crowd calling out to him and with his big smile can be seen behind his helmet, he raised his fist up high and shouted, "Let's Break It Down!"
"And finally, the only girl member within this team!" MC starts to speak once again as the screen shows the picture of our friend, Lumina, with one of her duels with Kalin Kessler in Satisfaction Town.
Just how in the world did these guys get these things in the first place?
"She is from Satisfaction Town, to which this girl knows how to turn the tide in a draw of a card, despite the situation she was being put on! And let's not forget, do not let your eyes being deceived by her empty hand tricks in her hand as she will spring up a LOT of traps for the finishing strike at the unexpected time! As the former apprentice of the now retired Kalin Kessler and his handless style of dueling and the ONLY girl member of his group! And let us remind you she has NOTHING to do with this person but all to continue his legacy! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome… LUMINA KESSLER!"
And with the third and final calling, the entrance lets out another explosion once again and my last team member makes her grand entrance as well. Behind her grey helmet, she is 5'8", and has a semi-long sapphire hair, which it was obviously dyed due to those yellow ends (but don't tell her that). Behind her lenses, she has green eyes and wore the old school of Duel Academy Island Ra Yellow uniform and short skirt that only covers half of her thighs with long black boots and a VERY long black silky socks that wraps up all the way to her thighs as well.
Just so you know, she's Ryder's (self-proclaim) girlfriend, even though Ryder here seems to be quite an airhead… most of the times. The only things he would ever thought off were none other than dueling and egg burger.
Lumina here only did a full lap around the arena and instead of making her own catchphrase, she just waves happily with that big smile of hers, as well as catching those boys' attention, which I admit… she's actually quite hot, but not as hot as my wife, mind you!
She came to a stop next to me, making me staying right between them. "Ready?" I asked.
"You~ betcha!" Ryder chirps up happily.
"Let's just get this over with so we can win this tournament again." Lumina said as the three of us takes out our cards. As both Ryder and I took back our signature monster cards off from our monster slots and in unison, the three of us places our trademark monsters on it.
"Together, they are~ team Elder Gods!" the MC shouted as the middle of the arena explodes in an awesome display of pyrotechnics as the three of our monsters shoots out from the center of the arena. The first one is a VEEEEEEEERY long serpent-like dragon with two mouths and a blue gem resting on its head. The second one is a blue colossal giant with massive fists and feet to match with its humongous figure! And the last one is the golden dragon, floating up high in the sky before these three Egyptian monsters flew towards our direction and hovers right above us.
These guys are Slifer, the Sky Dragon (owned by yours truly), Obelisk the Tormentor for Ryder and finally, Lumina held The Winged Dragon of Ra! How do we acquire these cards? If I told you, I gotta have to kill you.
No, seriously, we can't tell you.
During this time, Lumina glares upon the MC, feeling a little bit unsatisfied with something. "If I find out who's responsible for getting that video from one of my duel with my master, I gotta gut 'em apart!"
Lumina, that's the world of entertainment for you.
"I still can't believe they somehow still have the record of my battle with Z-One. Aren't they supposed to be running away like crazy after that thing tries to crash down on them?" I said with a sweatdrop.
"And now, onto the challenger's side for trying to pry out of the titles held by the champions!" the MC spoke once again. "They have went through high and low, with hardship they had to get through and eventually, made it this far and now, they are just one duel away to get the desired title of them all: the WRGP Champion! Ladies and gentlemen, representing Europe, they are Rave Sherman, Rodney Louiss and finally Steven Reigh; of Team Dynamo~!"
"Oh great, here comes the three amigos." I blurted out loud as the smokes starts to shoot out once more and this time, three D-Wheels shoot out from the entrance and the three of them making a full lap around the arena. Boy, they sure got everyone's attention, especially those girls on the sidelines.
Why can't I be called out like that? Oh yeah, I'm already married. Never mind.
While the three of us are waiting for these guys to come by, I can hear the snore of Ryder's Obelisk inside his front pocket and both Ra and Slifer hovering above us in its spirit form.
Yes, you heard me right. These guys are the Egyptian monsters… chibified.
"My, oh my… it seems like those guys are really a crowd pleaser, especially amongst girls." Ra said in his gentleman tone.
"Heh, just because they are so called pretty boys, that doesn't mean they are any better than my sweetheart! Right~, Stormy?" Lumina cooed as she immediately clings onto his arm, which startles Ryder for a moment.
"Yeah! These guys better give a good duel or else, it's going to be quite boring!" Ryder exclaims, oblivious to Lumina's words, as always.
It is then my partner, Slifer, starts to hover around me and he couldn't help it but to let out a burst of laughter. "Look at them, all being 'pretty' alright… PRETTY hilarious!" he said. "Oi, be sure to be gentle with these idiots, a'ight, Kira?"
"Never." A grin carves on my face. "I'll decimate anyone who challenges me!"
"Good to see there are things that'll never change…" Lumina muttered sarcastically with a sweatdrop.
"Oh, it would seem like these gentlemen are about to finish their full lap and making their way here." Ra points out and soon enough, the three amigos parked right in front of us and looked at us without even taking off their helmets off.
"So, these kids were the ones who saves the world, huh?" the big guy, Rave, spoke out.
"Who would have thought they would save the world before bedtime?" the middle sized guy, Rodney, chuckled. Who do these guys think we are, a bunch of girls with superpowers?
"I think you kids are still light-years away to defeat such an elite group like us." Their leader, Steven got out. Let me remind you that light-years does not measure time, it measures distance! Hah! Take that, Pokémon! "Now, run along and let us grown up men to do our thing…"
"Even if you have those Egyptian monsters in your hands, it won't do much of a change that we'll win this tournament." Rave said confidently.
"Lemme bite 'em, lemme bite 'em, lemme bite 'em…" seems like Slifer is wanna bite these guys' heads off. Though they can't see him, but if they do, oh, they'll be wetting their pants to see this dragon being pissed.
"Strong words from my opponents." I said. Sportsmanship… is something I don't usually do. "But let me remind you that we don't even use our Egyptian God cards most of the time.
"Yep, and we'll show you guys the power that wipes out those Yliasters!" Lumina chirped up confidently.
For some reason I don't know, Ryder raised his hand up and said, "Um… I DID use it, remember?"
Way the go, Captain Obvious. Because of what you said, there's this strange moment of silence… until Slifer decided to whack his head with its tail.
"Hey!" Ryder cringed. "What did you do THAT for?!"
"Uh… no reason?" Slifer got out with his double grin.
"Bad Slifer! Bad!" Ra scolded him.
"Will you guys shut up?! I'm trying to sl—" before Storm's partner, Obelisk, could even finish his sentences, he already dozed off to the dream world randomly… how it did it?
"Are these kids truly alright?" Steven mumbles out loud, making his two amigos lets out a shrug.
"Just for the record, if we had failed to defeat those guys, this world's pretty much destroyed with populations of people pretty much slumps down near extinction." I waved it off like it was nothing. It is then I remember something, "By the way, has anyone seen Yukino?"
"Sorry!" I heard a familiar shout and yes, that's my wife, Yukino, running towards our direction with a bag of food in her hands. Luckily, the pit stop and our starting line are pretty much close to each other. "I was packing up for tonight's dinner, should everyone get hungry."
When Yukino have made her appearance, their leader, Steven, gawked behind his helmet and being mesmerized by her beauty. "Wow… she's a beauty…" that pervert got out, only to make her looked at him with total confusion.
"Hey!" Lumina shouted at his direction. "If you think you want to hit on her, sorry, she's already married… to that nut bar over there!" she points at my direction, which in return I frowned on her choice of words.
"I thought we've talked about this matter, Lumina." I said. "I prefer to be called INSANE!"
"Oh my." Yukino got out, getting our attention back in an instant. "Is this the team you're facing for the finals?" she's kinda responded a bit late when it comes to duel but meh, that's her charming part in my book… and speaking of books, where did my black book go? "Please don't go overboard like last time with Yusei's team."
"Overboard?" those three said in unison.
"As a fresh reminder, I recently beat those three guys in the semis with my skills!" I boasted, which makes Ryder pouted.
"And because of that, I don't get to have the fun I wanna have!" he whines.
"And let's not forget how PISSED Jack was when he found out his whole group was taken down by this nut bar over here." Lumina added.
"INSANE!"
"Heh… is that so?" Rodney lets out a smirk. "Seems like you guys are threatening us about this idiot's skill now? That's cheap."
Gah! How many times to I have to tell you! I prefer to be called INSANE!
"It's not really a fact…" Ryder got out as he took off his glasses and wipes the lenses on it to make it shiny before glaring at them with his faint glowing eyes. "It's a fact."
"Have my eyes deceives me? Are his eyes truly glowing?" Rodney said in surprise as Ryder wears back his glasses while I take a look at his eyes.
"Nope, seems pretty much normal to me!" I shrugged while rummaging Yukino's bag to get my instant ramen. "And I'm pretty much hungry for tonight's duel. So, I think we should head back to our pit stop and enjoying my mealtime here."
"He is right." Ra appears above us and once again, these guys can't see him, other than us. "Milady Lumina, we should also get ready for the duel as well."
"Alright!" Lumina chirped up, patting Ra's head playfully before her glare switches to serious mode in an instant. "Alright, you two. Let's figure it out on who should go first!" she blurts out loud before glaring at our opposition. "It would also means that you guys should butt off from our pitstop! Shoo! Shoo!"
And with that, these guys had this dissatisfied look on their faces, clearly felt insulted by her. Hey, at least it's a good thing we warned them about what's about to come towards them, right?
"Those kids… are making a mockery out of us!" Rodney hissed.
"At ease, my friend." Their leader, Steven calms him down. "We'll be sure to win and smeared their faces with defeat while we will bask glory within our grasp."
"Agreed. Let them enjoy their moments until we will get the last laugh." Rave assures them before they finally reached to their pitstop.
While I was looking for a way to cheat myself so I can ride on the battlefield first instead of the other two… and not to mention a glass to place something in it, there's a little scene happening between those two.
"Um… Ryder?" Lumina calls him out with a blush before she stretches her hands forward and presenting the fully wrapped food, which it turns out to be an egg burger ramen." I-I made this f-for you!"
While she was anticipating for something to happen like getting a praised from her boyfriend or something, I can see Ryder stretches his hand toward… Yukino's wrapped food?
"Thanks a bunch, Yukino! I've been waiting for the egg burger to come to me!"
Ryder, are you really THAT dense? Oh, let's not forget that since that little comment alone and his usual airhead attitude occurs, even after all that girl went through all of the troubles of preparing her stuff FOR THAT GUY, in the end, he somehow triggered the ticking time 'bomb' inside Lumina. Of course, my wife can sense it about Lumina's pent up rage ready to explode at any time.
"Say… I think Lumina's angry at you, Ryder…" Yukino said with a sweatdrop.
Without even waiting for Ryder to speak, Lumina literally shoves the WHOLE WRAPPED BOWL inside his mouth before looking away from him, sulking. In the world of anime, this is where rules don't apply. "If fhera fomsching I faiad? (Is there something I said?)" Ryder blabbering while his mouth is still full and blinking in confusion at the same time.
"Oh noooooo!" I sarcastically set out a groan while rolling my eyes after I set up the picking order for our team's line up. "It totally wasn't because you took Yukino's egg burger instead of your girlfriend's offering."
"He's right, you fool!" Slifer growls while using its tail to pat on Ryder's back, to get that bowl out from Ryder's mouth in an instant. And when he got it out, he coughs it as if it's like a cat barfs out a furball… eww.
"Thanks!" Ryder happily chirps up while Lumina still sulking about the matter.
"Milady, I thought that you have already used to his ways of blunders?" Ra asked her, to which she suddenly stood up and pretty much getting excited already.
"If that's the case, I think I should make something that can attract his attention! Yeah… better take a note on that…" Lumina said with determination.
"Man, that's the fastest recovery I've ever seen from that girl so far!" Slifer blurts out loud, which leads me to have a sweatdrop of my own.
"Agreed… so, shall we do the draw on who start things first or should we go for the usual rock-paper-scissors?"
During the time of discussion over the matter, and not to mention there's some sort of argument about the drawing the number of who goes first, there's a girl who has twin ponytails of her pink hair, wearing a gothic black dress and boots, happily watching from the crowds. From where she seats, she spotted a certain someone and a smile carves on her face. "Lumina… the former Dark Signer… I wonder if she somehow remembers me and decided to join along to start another war?"
"Hot dog?" the hot dog man questions her, which it immediately distracts her thought in a second.
"YES, PLEASE!" she squeals happily.
As that girl just now is pretty much busy with the meal, once Lumina spotted that I was trying to cheat my way to start the battle first and not to mention I somehow tried to cheat my way out with Rock-Paper-Scissors, we decided to check upon a new can on the ground… containing three new sticks… and having number on who gets to go first… seriously, it's happening right now.
"Will you three dolts just pick one already?! I'm getting tired of waiting here!" Slifer huffs angrily.
"Hush, Slifer... let them took their time on doing so..." Yukino told him.
"Alright. It's all or nothin'!" I shouted as the three of us draws out the sticks from the can and we take a better look on what number do we get but…"
"It's blank…" Ryder got out first.
"Same here…" Lumina got out.
"And mine as well…" I finished up.
"Okay, that's it!" Lumina gets angry. "Who the heck is fixing with these straws?!"
"I admit, I tend to fix the rock-paper-scissors, but the straws ain't gonna be me!" I confessed.
"Oh dear…" Yukino said as we looked upon her. "I think you might have use my magic pen… it's no wonder whatever I tried to write on my book would ended up disappeared from my page…"
"What about YOUR pen you just used, Kira?!" Lumina asked.
"Sorry, I ditched it away right before our pick starts…" I told her with a sweatdrop, but then, Ryder makes a major discovery of the lifetime.
"This is a straw?" he blurts out loud. (A/N: Yes, you idiot... that's a straw... lol)
I could only out a facepalm while Lumina lets out a sigh. "You just figure it out, Ryder? Well... I guess that's just being you..."
It is then the referee appears and since he also witnessed the whole thing, he also couldn't help it but to let out a sweatdrop of his own. " Just how long are you guys going to keep the charade? The crowds began to get wild... and not to mention your opponents are impatient..."
"Give us one more minute!" I shouted as I pull out my deck from my deck holster. "Alright guys, there's only one way to do this! Let's draw a card from my deck! Highest level monster goes first! Second Highest goes second!"
"Yeah, this is going to settle everything!" Lumina agrees with me as the three of us draws out the card from my deck and once we flash it to each other though…
Everyone draws out a level four card.
"Oh dear… this is one awkward moment…" Yukino said while looking at the three of us.
"Kira… I think I want to kill you now… literally…" Lumina expressed herself as her right eye twitches badly.
"My Ra, milady!" Ra exclaims. "Please do not think of doing such a thing to a fellow member! I discriminate kil—" just before Ra could even finish his words, Slifer just shoves Ra to the side and gets excited in an instant.
"Oh yeah! I wanna see THIS battle instead!" Slifer's comment could only make Ryder lets out a sweatdrop.
"HURRY UP! HURRY UP!" the crowd's cheer can be heard as they are getting nuts about having this final tournament stated.
"WOW! It seems like the usual 'who-gets-to-go-first' in the Elder Teams has their usual problem of doing so! Who will be the first one to start first?!" the MC exclaims the obvious…
In the end, I could only let out a sigh and said, "Fine… I guess I should go first."
"Hey, wait a minute!" Ryder shouted as he stopped me from getting on my ride. "You had your fun! I better start first!"
"Hello~?" now it's Lumina's turn to stand up and stopped BOTH of us. "Haven't you guys heard of 'ladies first'?"
And because of this mini argument we had with each other, the battle of whose going to start first continues on, making the referee's sweatdrop even larger than normal and their opponents are getting more impatient every second.
It is then Slifer blurts out randomly to his brethren by saying, "Ever wondering how food becomes poo?"
"Oh my Ra…" Ra could only face palm on the remark. "Your timing is always as not so accurate, dear brethren…"
It is then when things get out of control, I hushed both of them by shouting, "ALRIGHT! I've decided!" I began, which the two of them looked at me with total confusion. "The first person who goes first is the person who— oh, LOOK OVER THERE!" I pointed my finger at Yukino's direction, which the two immediately snapped to look at where I point.
"Huh?!" Ryder got out. "Where? Where's the egg burger?!"
"There's no such thing as an egg burger over there, Ryder!" Lumina shouted as I immediately start off the engine on my ride.
"My, my. Everyday, there will always be something new happening whenever I'm in my husband's team…" Yukino giggled as I managed to speeds away from Lumina's grasp and went onto the starting line.
"And with that, Kira would be the first one who starts the duel for Team Elder Gods!" the MC speaks out loud while Rodney is already waiting for me to get this party started.
-Darn it, Kira! You'll pay for this!- I can hear her screaming her head off via the communicator, which makes me cringes in pain from her sudden shout.
After shook my head off to clear my ear from her screaming just now, Slifer flew by and rested around my neck, changing into a big, LONG scarf. "Man, I just love feeling the breeze from a D-Wheel!"
While Slifer said so, Rodney gave me an odd look and saying, "Where in the world did that scarf came from? It wasn't there a second ago..."
Upon hearing him asking me that, I looked at him while saying, " It's Slifer, my god card. Don't you talk to your monsters too?"
He gave me an odd look, getting more confused from what I asked him. I mean, come on, you do know that you can actually SPEAK to your Duel Monsters, right? I mean, look at those Earthbound Immortals I have to deal with in the past! They don't seem to have much trouble talking to them! So, why can't we?
"Your team is just plain weird…" Rodney began. " I mean, there's a child (Storm) with a few nuts loose, a childish girl (Lumina) who seems like she doesn't like you that much, a mature girl (Yukino) who just accepts just the way it is and lastly, I can't believe I'm dueling with an old man... no wonder there was the delay..."
Having him hearing chuckled after mocking us, I suddenly get extremely serious. Hey! NOBODY can mock my team other than me during this tournament or any other tournaments! It's a policy that these guys have to know and follow!
"Are you ready?" I asked, to which Rodney lets out a scoff.
"Let me show you how a REAL duel starts!" he taunts me and when the light goes to green, both of us starts to revved all out and accelerate around the arena, trying to get who's going to start first.
During this time, while the two of us are having a duel, making the crowd go wild for a moment, Lumina couldn't help it but to sense something that was off as she felt a certain presence that she knows around her somewhere but she can't seem to put her finger on it. It is then Ryder starts to approach to her and asking her, "Hey, I know that you're hungry, so I'll call you a hot dog guy to get one for you..."
"Milord, I don't think that she is hungry... =_="" Ra got out.
Seriously, does this guy always think of food in the first place other than asking her about the matter?
But as always, Lumina noticed his good intentions and taking advantage over it, making all girly right now. "Y-Yes, Ryder! I'd love too!"
Ra could only do another face palm and muttered. "Why are we attached to THESE humans in the first place?"
TWF: Alright, let's get this duel start—
Kira: Nuh uh! NOT GONNA HAPPEN!
TWF: Eh?
Kira: I hate making long BOOORING stuff!
TWF: -_-; Then, what do you propose?
Kira: So, in the name of getting to the 'chase', we've decided to do something that was very common in every anime shows... TIME SKIP!
After what it seems like a VERY fast time skip, it all comes down to my last opponent, Steven, which he controls his Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon on the field (4500/3000) while I, still survive the battle since the very beginning, and after kept receiving a handful of cursing from Lumina throughout the whole battle, activating a trap card to make that indirect damages he inflicted on me to 0, thus making my Spell/Trap card empty, with 6 cards on my hand and not to mention I still have 100 LP left and summons out Slifer the Sky Dragon on my side. And boy, this Steven guy is not one happy customer.
"It cannot be! You should have lost the duel! That was supposed to be your last LP to reach 0! No one has ever escaped my traps before!" he went AWOL on me. "This is outrageous!"
-Yeah! Why did he had ALL the fun to himself?!- Ryder pouted.
"There's always next year, Ryder!" I said happily since I've been enjoying this whole duel. And now to seal the deal and keep our title in our grasp. "It's time to end this battle once and for all. Slifer the Sky Dragon! (6000/6000) Destroy his monster and burn it down with your Eternal Thunder Force!"
With the call being made, Slifer lets out a dragonic roar and a beam is being charged up from its mouth. Just as before as he can deal the finishing blow—
"BOOOORING!" a shout can be heard nearby as a MASSIVE Chipmunk Earthbound Immortal rises up from outside of the stadium! Not only it was even bigger than my Slifer, but it also stops my partner's attack at the same time!
Wait, is there a Nazcalines for a chipmunk before? O.o;
"I was hoping to see the former Dark signer's duel but YOU had to go and take all the fun away!" the owner of the shout, which turns out to be a girl, exclaims seems to be dissatisfied about it. This causes me to stop on my crew's pitstop.
Oh yeah… every enemy that I met always ended up hating me for no reason… I know I tend to screw them all but to think there's something that can overcome my monster's attack with just its appearance? Wow.
"Whoa! A cute squirrel!" Ryder blurts out loud while looking upon the Chipmunk Immortal with green lines on it.
"That's a chipmunk, Ryder…" Yukino corrected him with a sweatdrop.
"Aren't they the same thing?" Ryder asked again.
While this chaos occurs, Lumina suddenly stood up and mutters, "Raika?"
"Milady?" Ra asked as Lumina was quite surprised from what she sees.
"I thought that all of the Dark Signers were supposed to end after Goodwin's death while I live normally after that! What's going on around here?!" she got out.
"Darn it! I NEARLY roasted that human!" Slifer hissed as the panicked people and Steven immediately zooms away from the Immortal's appearance. "But noooooo~, my attack has been blocked by a SQUIRREL!"
"CHIPMUNK!" I shouted at him.
"It's the same thing!" Slifer retorted. Can't you just tell by looking on its tail? It's short!
"That's it! Since that girl interrupts the duel, she's going to pay! Alright, Slifer! Roast her down with your Eternal Thunder Force!" I commanded him, as he charges up for another attack. When he DID launches the attack towards her direction, a strange force forces the attack to bounce at a different direction!
"By the power of Ra, it bounces the attack like a balloon!" Slifer exclaims.
When we were totally surprised from what just happen, the girl fixed her eyes on Lumina, as she waves happily at her direction. "Lumy! COME ON! Help me destroy these two with your Earthbound Immortal card!"
"Raika…" Lumina seems a bit lost as she mutters the girl's name.
"Hey, are you okay?" Yukino asked her.
In the meantime, I summon out another monster to assist me and it was Evil Hero Lightning Golem. "Alright, Lightning Golem, time to activate your effect! Shatter that thing away with your Lightning Rod!"
My monster starts to charge up for a blast on the chipmunk but—
*SPLAT!*
Somehow, that thing squashes my Lightning Golem with its paws as if he's the mosquito to be swatted away with ease and that golem slowly descends down like a piece of cloth before it shatters away, clearly that thing really annoys me!
And as for Lumina? Well, she's still having doubts about it. "I know I don't have my Earthbound Immortal card with me anymore… just what's going on around here? And why is still have that card?"
Raika could only let out a sigh as she starts to speak once more with a tone of regret. "I see… I thought we're friends, Lumy. I thought we were on the same side and always look for each other's back…" she said before glaring upon me and Ryder, well… mostly towards me. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! YOU TOOK MY LUMY AWAY FROM ME!"
And with her cry can be heard, her monster lets out a monstrous roar as I can see the people's souls, including those three amigos as well, start to get absorbed and enters into… a small orb right on its forehead? But luckily for us Elders, due to our contract with our Egyptian cards, it doesn't affect us, including Yukino since both of us shares the same mark, but seeing most of these souls being absorbed into that orb with that chipmunk making it grew larger and larger… and before we knew it, the chipmunk is now wearing a sweater… wait, what?
"Ah, crap! She's pissed! What do we do now?!" Slifer asked me.
I could only think of one thing I had in mind. I simply took out a card from my extra deck and immediately places it onto the field, thus a portal opens up to let out a familiar monster soars out and confronting the Chipmunk. "Aspiring Hope Emperor! Slash that thing down with Hope Sword Slash!"
With the command I give it to him, it flew towards the Chipmunk and slashes its sweater. Not only that, Ryder's Shi En and Yukino's Heroes also flew in and assisting the assault as well. While it seems like it's going to work, it actually backfires in an instant and those threads immediately wraps it all around these monsters of ours. Those threads began to thread along with them and once it has been completely knitted, not only it returns to normal but as an added bonus, there's also a knit of other monsters' helmet around its sweater.
"Aww, you made my Theodora happily!" Raika chirps happily as the Chipmunk lets out a monstrous roar once again.
"Kira! We better get away from that monster! I have a bad feeling about this!" Yukino warns me as my crew immediately rides on their D-Wheels and I started to follow them to a nearby exit.
"Aw~, you guys are leaving already? I don't think so~!" Raika chirps happily as her monster's sweater starts to release those same threads and it immediately lunges towards the entrance and soon enough, ALL of the exits have been blocked in an instant and we're all trapped in this stadium. Heck, even Yukino pressed on the breaks to just stop herself from hitting a nearby crumbled down wall from piling on top of her.
"Aw, crud! We're trapped!" Ryder whines.
"This is NOT looking good…" Obelisk blurts out loud after his rude awakening as Raika seems happy about this sudden change of events.
"You got nowhere to go and nowhere to hide! After I get rid of you, I can have Lumy ALL to myself!" Raika chirps up as she is about deal the finishing blow… until there's a call for her to answer. "This is Raika." She began as there was a moment of silence. "…WHAT?! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! I JUST FOUND HER!"
"Who is she talking to?" Lumina asked.
"Beats me." I said as Raika ends her phone call and seems to be dissatisfied about it.
"ARRRGH! Damn him! Being so high and mighty just because he joined a few days earlier than I did!" Raika complains as a vortex behind her opens up, as her monster disappears and the same small orb is now in her hand. She looked at it for a moment before putting it away and glares at us for a moment. "You four were saved by the bell! My companion has just found one of the other former Dark Signers elsewhere and trying to deal with it!"
"Another Dark Signer?" Lumina got out.
"Bye, Lumy! I'll see you again soon!" Raika waves happily while she slowly walking backwards towards her vortex before she disappears within the vortex.
"This can't be happening…" she got out.
"What's been happening?" Ryder asked her, to which Obelisk asked his partner.
"You didn't pay attention to the whole thing?" Obelisk asked.
"I DID pay attention to that sweater that Earthbound Immortal wore earlier…" he told us, making Ra face palm once more.
"He's hopeless…" Ra admitted.
"I know…" I said as I got closer to them. "But not as hopeless as the others who got absorbed into that orb of hers just now, courtesy of her Earthbound Immortal's ability."
"Hey, Lumina…" Ryder got out. "Are you sure you're okay? I know it's bad for me to asked this but… did it somehow makes you remember this whole thing in the past?" he asked her, to which Lumina could only nodded in agreement as she was already experience it herself as a Dark Signer, despite that Goodwin attempts to make sure that most of the Dark Signers that was involved will no longer remembers the incident... well, only 70% of it works... the reason? Raika and Lumina still could remember about it...
"From what I'm seeing here, there's someone that tries to brought back the past to the present…" Obelisk said as he lets out a small yawn from Ryder's pocket.
"That could only lead one thing. A freakin' war!" Slifer got worked up. "OH YEAH! NOW we're talking business!"
"No, Slifer!" Ra shouted as he hits Slifer's head with its paws. "Bad Slifer! Bad!"
"No!" I exclaims, catching everyone's attention for a moment.
"Kira?" Yukino, Ryder and Lumina said in unison as I began to rant.
"I said NO! We dealt with Yliaster, fought Z-One but failed, went back in time, ended the Dark Signer war, dealt with Yliaster AGAIN and fought Z-One AGAIN and WON! We DESERVES to not deal with anymore wars! I just want to lead a normal life!"
"Kira…" Lumina seems to understand the pain I have went through.
"What can we say? The history is gonna repeat itself once again." Ryder ponders for a bit.
"It could be true… but judging by Raika's tone just now, other than Lumina, she mentioned something about found another Dark Signer elsewhere…" Yukino points out.
"Which leads to~?"
"I believe this one would be on a massive scale, love…" Yukino informs me about it.
"Massive?" the three Egyptian monsters looked at her with total confusion.
"Yes, as in… there are other 'places' that is involved in this mess, which according to my experience, since you always forgot when we went back in time, love." She points out, to which I seem to remember about that part. "There are different worlds that are similar to ours but have different set of story over there..."
Why do I have a funny feeling she just break the fourth wall there?
"Does this mean we gotta go time travelling on a dimensional scale now?" I groaned in annoyance.
"I know how you feel, Kira, but this situation could turn for the worse if we leave it be…" Lumina points out.
"Just like the other eleventy billion times we dueled were mostly puts us to dangerous situations!" I exaggerated on that part, knowing it wasn't true at all, but the duel part where it mostly puts us to a dangerous situation is actually true.
"If that would've happen, who am I supposed to duel?!" Ryder panicked. "I can't just duel you guys ALL the time!"
"How can you still worry about that when there are more lives that was on the line?!" Lumina snapped at him as the two starts to argue with each other.
It is then I shifted my attention to my partner. "Hey, Slifer. How bad is the damage around the area?"
"With no thanks to that squirrel—"
"CHIPMUNK!"
"It's the same thing!" Slifer retorted before he clears his throat and continues on. "As I was saying, I can't sense other human's presence all over the city, which it tells me they are all being absorbed into that orb."
"Oh great… even Yusei and the gang as well?" I asked, to which Slifer lets out a nod.
"Even the crab head guy as well. He's no longer in his prime days, boss." Slifer points out. "Not after what YOU did…"
I don't think I wanna know…
"Wait… does that mean we're the only ones in this city?" Lumina asked.
"That's horrible!" Yukino gasped in surprise.
"UGH, I am SO retiring after this is over!" I groaned in annoyance before I looked upon my wife. "Yukino, you better summon your monster out so we can make a chase on her."
"Alright. But the creation of the portal might take a while…" Yukino said to me.
"Better to be late than nothing at all…" I told her as she draws out her monster card and places it onto her Monster Slot.
"Please come out, Neo Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon!" Yukino summons out her monster, making it roars out loud before looking at her once more. "Would you please make dimensional portal for us? We have to chase the girl who is responsible for this mess…"
The dragon roars out as it began to create a black portal but as she said before, it's gonna took some time to make one.
In the end, we decided to camp right in the middle of the arena since all of the entrance got blocked and there's no way I can make my feat of escaping this area without having something to fall upon my head. And I gotta say, the view of the sky seems nice, to say the least. While waiting for the portal to open up and ready to be used, we began to have a little discussion on this matter first, other than Ryder who dozed off to Wonderland, probably thinking about his egg burger again.
"So, lemme get this straight... the Signer War should've ended with you, Lumina... but somehow, this brat manages to find and revive one of them from their seals from parts unknown?" Slifer asked, to which Lumina nodded in agreement.
"That would mean that it could cause another trouble for all of us..." Ra added. "I mean, it took Kira twice to defeat the almighty evil, Z-One, but not letting the Crimson Signers found out about it at all at the same time..."
"It wasn't easy keeping the duel from Yusei." I admitted. "Unfortunately I think Yusei will have some questions for me when we bring everyone back to life…" I added with a sweatdrop, making Lumina sighs on my action.
"He's gonna be SO mad! The Crimson Dragon is STILL mad at us for interfering with history!" Lumina exclaims while Slifer turns away from us.
"Don't look at us… you guys were the one who's started it." Slifer got out.
"We were aware of that…" Yukino noted.
"I beg to differ but if it wasn't for Kira's wife, maybe this whole matter wouldn't happen..." Ra explains before he looked upon me with an apologetic face. "I'm sorry, my good man, but there are times that I have to say it out loud..."
"In her defense, she didn't really have much choice. It was ether this or makes Yusei duel him." I defended her, to which Yukino lets out a smile with a slight blush on her face upon hearing my words. "Plus, I never got to finish the duel with Z-ONE when we went back anyway."
"Kira…" Yukino got out as she leans her head on my shoulder, to which I reply by wrapping my blanket around her, making her warm.
"My word... you sure are something, Kira. It's no wonder that she loves you very much..." Ra got out, to which I let out a smirk on my face.
"I got my ways."
"C'mon, let's hit the sack and get over this stuff already. The portal might opened up eventually to full by sunrise… tops." Slifer suggested as we began to rest up and Slifer is coiling his body to rest as well.
There's one thing that bothers me, though… why did she said that she found another one at the other world? She could've go for other previous Dark Signers but noooo~, they just have to poke around other places or dimensions. Seriously, this is stressing my mind. After this, I'm gonna retire and have kids with Yukino and lead both of us to a happily ever after story. Maybe this way, I can even teach them to how to screw things up around here as well.
"Mmm… egg burgers…" Ryder mumbles in his dream before rolling to the side.
"I want to know... why did we made a contract with that burger loving boy in the first place?" Ra asked with a groan.
"W-well, at least that he was being honest about something..." Hey, Lumina. You're forget about being an airhead as well…
"That, and he didn't realized that he was a Psychic Duelist until a year ago..." Obelisk informs him while his gaze kept looking at the portal being created as well.
"He got the fun powers!" I pouted while Yukino is already dozed off next to me. "All I got as the ability to see what I draw next!"
"…and not to mention you had ALL the fun with that kind of power…" Lumina deadpanned before her eyes soften on him. "Poor Ryder, he rarely gets his shot after you've been defeated when it comes to tournaments…"
"You really do care for him, milady." Ra complimented her, to which she blushes in an instant.
"O-of course, darn it! He's my boyfriend! What else could it be?!" Lumina stuttered.
I let out a dramatic sigh and said, "Love?"
The reply I got from her was a pillow on my head and stutters like crazy. "J-Just shut up! You're already married and just… stay out of my thing!" and just like that, she rolls to the side and went to sleep in an instant.
"Boy… too tired to think now… I guess I can screw more things up in the morning…" I let out a yawn before I rested my head and wraps my arm around Yukino before dozing off to Wonderland.
Right in the middle of the night, as I was sleeping peacefully with Yukino resting her head on my chest, there has to be something that must annoys me. There's this noise coming out from the portal and they just kept getting louder and louder and much to my surprise, almost everyone within the group doesn't seem to be affected by it.
"Geez, of all times they have to annoy me, why does it has to be the one during my time of sleeping… outside, that is!" I had enough as I immediately sit up, surprising the sleepy Yukino for a moment as I ride on my D-Wheel and just before I could even revved up my engine, I can hear the roar of a monster at the portal.
"What was that…?" Yukino asked sleepily while she rubs her eyes.
"That… was looking for trouble!" I said in annoyance as I immediately placed a card onto my monster zone and immediately summons out my card Evil Hero Dark Gaia in an instant. "WILL YOU IDIOTS KEEP IT DOWN!" and with that being said, I immediately speeds away towards the portal without even turning back.
"What's with him today?" Ryder lets out a groan while looking at the portal as Yukino is already fully awaken.
"Isn't he always crazy like always?" Lumina make a remark as they were also standing up and ride on their D-Wheels. "C'mon! We better get a move on already!"
