"HOPE?!"
"wow, it's been some time i've been in this form..." the Number said, looking at his new(spiritual) body. he still had his armor, except for his head, where his short, spiked black hair ran wild. he was now the size of Astral, and had a white glimmer arround him, like the Original Number.
"yeah, i used part of my magic to free you from the Number card." MajoTourbillon said. then, she turned to Astral. "but there's something that troubles me. i felt darkness in you, Astral. and Dark Mist... what happened?"
Astral, Yuma and Hope grimaced, both duelists and monster not wanting to remember the events that led to Hope V and the "Dark ZEXAL" form. however, as the girls(Redo and her monsters included) were getting annoying(and annoyed too), they had to explain the Barian menace, apart from the "Barian Guardian", Dark Mist's escape and the quest for the Lengendary Numbers. in the meantime, Redo was working with everyone's D-Gazers, to let them see and hear Astral and the Duel spirits.
"oh... my..." the Magical Number said, looking at Astral with concern. "and you say you still have darkness?"
"that's what Vector said." Astral said. "and... i feel it too."
"as long as we are synchronized and stay friends, that won't happen again." Yuma assured the Astral being, who managed to make the shadow of a smile.
"but enough about Yuma. why are you here?" Kotori asked Redo, as she finished to fix her D-Gazer(with a special frequence, as she could already hear and see Astral).
"oh, about that..." Redo said. then...
...
...
"i don't know!"
everybody(even the Number-Duel Spirits and Astral) fell Anime style.
"HOW IS THAT THAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW?!" Yuma snapped.
"well, i just joined Ayame and Motoko for GandGrandma, but, as you won... I WILL NEVER HAVE HER AGAIN!" Redo finished her sentence by crying(a little much).
"h-hey, calm down! i swear, you are like Hana-chan!" Doremi said, looking at the crying duelist. then, she turned to see both Hanas, a bit annoyed by the comment. "i-i mean-when you were babies-i-"
"Mama... some Hanas are still babies!" both Hanas said, as two Hana Tokens flew to their hands, annoyed like the others.
"hehehe... ifyouwantme,i'llbeinmycard. seeyabye!" with that, Doremi disappeared, as the others still wondered what happened.
"yes... that's Doremi alright..." Majo Yellow said(in english), sweatdropping.
"yes, but that's why she is our friend." Majo Purple said, smiling.
"yes, you are right."
"can you please talk Japanesse?! some of us aren't bilingual, you know!" Marine declared.
"yeah, what the blue-haired freak said-Ura!" Tokunosuke said, which obviously, brought a vein of anger in Marine's head.
"WHO'S WEIRD, YOU FREAK SMALL FLEA?!"
"I'M A FREAK-URA? AT LEAST I HAVE NORMAL HAIR-URA!"
"YES, AND YOUR BIG HEAD COMPENSATES THAT!"
"WHY YOU-"
"ok, that's enough!" Madoka exclaimed, throwing a pair of arrows to the pair, who were hit, and fell asleep.
"what-what did you do to them?!" Cat asked. however, Yuma just facepalmed.
"really, the sleeping arrows? couldn't you think of another thing?" he asked.
"well, i couldn't think of another thing!" the Puella Magi said."it was that, or the Cupids, and we DON'T want to relive that day!"
"oh, yeah, that was unconfortable." Astral said, effectively sweating.
"why, what happened?" Kotori asked.
"well... let's just say that it involved three fishes, Obomi's killer form, a duel in the top of the Heartland Tower, and a lot of shaving cream." Hope said. then, he turned to see the syllabe duelist and Duel Spirits and said "i could see that. everyone saw that. the Oni band is still laughing, and Baby Tiragon has to go to a psychiatrist, by the way.."
"so that's why Gagaga Magigian doesn't talk to me..." Madoka said, sulking in her hair.
"...i think it's better not to know." Tetsuo said.
"to summarize, is the best option." Todoroki agreed.
"and they have been together for just one week..." Kotori said. "this will be a long year..."
"well, what do we have here?" a Barian said to himself, looking at a normal girl walking in a dark alley. "well, there hasn't been any Legendary Numbers as of now, so..."
after making the girl a Barian fighter(with "Barian Force" and all), the Barian disappeared, and the girl tried to return to her home...
the keyword here being return.
"hey! you girl. you want to duel? i have a Number..."
"give me that! in the name of the Barian Empire-"
"look, i don't care who do you represent. duel for the card, or..."
"then i'll duel!"
"exclelent... allow me to throw you in despair."
"KYAAA!"
?:4000
?:0
"the... the Barian..."
"shut up, and give in to despair."
"KYAAAAaaa..."
"excelent. now, take this cards. with these, you can bring me the Duel Spirits."
"...and the Numbers?"
"...destroy them."
"very well... misteress."
DUN, DUN, DUUUNN!
who is the "misteress" that attacked that girl?(i won't put the Barians names-except Vector, sometimes-, beacause, in that way, i won't have to make clear whose Barian in controlling who.)
and Kotori is right: apart from the whole "Find the Legendary Numbers" thing, defeat Dark Mist and find the Numeron Code, they have this.
i fixed some things in the previous duel, and i couldn't have found it without Kadaj5's help. he also helped me to fix some things in the cards. thanks!
anyway, the next chapter will have a duel, and a duelist other than Yuma... who? find it next time!
