Chapter 4 Double Trouble

Disclaimer I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh or Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds I only own Sesha and my other OC's and the specific card's they use.

The sun rose over the land it all seemed peaceful, but beneath the sun evil was lurking. Out of a lava pit a large creature with what seemed to be volcano on its back and large head, walked towards a large mountain with a cave at the top. Next to the lava pit was a lake, out of this a long serpent like creature appeared covered in fins it slithered towards the mountain as well. Across from the lake from out of a cave came tow creatures, one was a large beast walking on two legs with a long tail and a large red sail, the other creature was a large four legged dragonoid with a large club like tail and sharp spikes on its back they headed towards the mountain as well. From the sky came a huge white dragon with razor sharp claws and a large wings, the dragon flew towards the mountain at top speed. From the caves below emerged a medium-size gray dragon with green wing membranes, next to the gray dragon was a serpent like being it was covered in feathers and scales, and it boasted two large feather covered wings. These two just like the rest made their way to the mountain. Within the mountain two dragons were just awakening, the larger one the male noticed his mate was still sleeping and nudged her awake. She groaned at having to be awoken, but this was silenced by a lick from her mate. They soon made their way out of the cave and flew down to where the group of creatures had gathered.

"My loyal friends, it is good to see you. I trust you slept well?" The large female dragon asked the group.

"Yes Queen Sesha." They all replied.

"Good." She hummed, then continued, "Now as all of you can see Hydrak has returned. It is with great displeasure however that I tell you that he failed to capture Stardust Dragon."

The group of creatures all groaned and hissed at the gray dragon. " ...But it was not my fault Queen Sesha you see-" Hydrak tried to defend himself, but was cut off by Sesha.

"Silence Hydrak!" Sesha hissed, "I heard your report last night, fortunately we can use this accident to our advantage. Without their so called leader the signers will be unorganized, quite possibly vulnerable and be rash full in their decisions."

The others seemed to take this in and then nodded at her logic, "Very good my subjects, now I will be sending Hydrak and Zerkoff to their world to collect Stardust Dragon and to strike fear into their hearts. Does anyone object?" No one objected, "Then it is settled you shall leave after breakfast. Meeting adjourned." She told them and soon everyone was off to go find breakfast. Sesha was wearing a grin she was certain that Zerkoff and Hydrak would bring back success.

New Domino City Hospital

Yusei's hospital room was quite as the sun's rays leaked into the room. Akiza was asleep in the chair next to Yusei who was still unconscious. Luna and Leo were asleep on the couch next to the window. Everyone else had gone to their hotel rooms to get some rest, since they didn't want to crowd the room. Then Akiza stirred as the sun's rays hit her eyes. She groaned as she woke up and looked next to her.

Yusei was still unconscious, she sighed then looked at the wall clock 07:31 it read. She decided to go bathroom to get ready for the day, and when she got out Leo and Luna were waking up.

"Morning you two." She said to them.

"Morning." They groaned. Leo made a beeline for the bathroom while Luna stretched her joints out. Soon Leo came out and Luna went in to get ready for the day. When she got out the three headed down to the cafeteria. Neither of them talked while they ate, they were still shocked by the previous day's events. Then Akiza's phone buzzed and she answered it.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Hey Akiza this is Crow were at Yusei's room. Where are you three?" A voiced answered.

"We are in the cafeteria eating breakfast, we will be up soon." She replied.

"Ok we will wait for you here." Crow told her.

"Ok see you in a bit." She said hanging up.

The twins looked at her and she told them it was just Crow. They finished eating a few minutes later then headed up to the room. When they entered they saw Crow and Sherry on couch and Jack was leaning up against the wall scowling. The TV was on showing the news.

The shot was from a news helicopter flying above the seen. There were gashes in the road and glass was still on the ground. There were barricades in front of the scene with security officers and cruisers behind them. In front of the barricades were news vans, reporters and civilians. Then the camera moved to a news reporter. Everyone's expressions were shocked by who the reporter was.

"Hello this is Carly Carmine reporting for New Domino City News. As you can see something horrible has happened here." She said gesturing to the scene behind her. "It is unknown what exactly happened here, but some speculate that is was a terrorist attack or very extreme vandalism. Whatever happened we are certain that our police forces will be able to handle it. We currently cannot get close to the scene, but we will keep you viewers up to date on the situation. This is Carly Carmine from New Domino City News signing off." She finished, then the camera went to studio with the anchorman and women talking about other news.

Everyone looked to Jack who was now standing straight up with a blush on his face and his mouth wide open. Jack was surprised to see Carly had finally become a reporter, but what surprised him the most was how Carly's look had changed. She no longer wore the goofy spiral glasses, and her hair was similar to when how she wore it as a dark signer. She wore a black suit and black pants which made her eyes stand out. She had a little bit of eye shadow on and she had bit of black lipstick on.

He was snapped out of his trance by Crow unfortunately. "Hey lover boy you might want to close your mouth before a fly flies into it." Crow teased him.

Jack immediately close his mouth and flushed bright red and everyone laughed. "I don't know what you are talking about!" Jack snapped turning away.

"Come on Jack you know you like her a lot just admit it." Crow told him "Never!" Said Jack.

Then a nurse poked her head in, "Sir please lower your volume there are others in the hospital."

"Sorry Miss." He told her, she nodded then walked away.

Crow was about to start teasing Jack again, but Akiza came to his rescue.

"So did you guys get much sleep last night?" She asked.

"Not much" They replied.

She sighed then Jack spoke, "I called Martha and told her about what happened, so she knows."

"How did she take it?" Crow asked.

Jack sighed, "Pretty bad she is going to come see him in a few days. She fainted when I told her, after that she cried for a bit, she told me to say hi and stay safe to everyone for her."

Everyone was silent for a little bit, then Luna spoke, "So what do we do now?" She asked.

"We find these guys, stop there plans and get Yusei back!" Jack said loudly, but quiet enough so the nurse didn't come back.

"How do we do that we don't even know where these guys are?" Sherry asked.

"Well we have to do something!" Jack shot back.

Before things started going bad Akiza stepped in, "We can't do anything until we have someone to look after Yusei." She told them.

"So we just wait?" Asked Leo.

"We have to" She replied.

Jack grunted and went back to leaning against the wall, Akiza sat in the chair next to Yusei, Luna and Leo went to sit on the couch, and Crow and Sherry went to looking out the window.

A few blocks away from the hospital in an alley

The alley was silent except for a cat digging through the dumpster. Then a purple portal appeared shattering the silence the cat screeched and ran away. Out from the portal stepped Hydrak and Zerkoff they were under cloaks of different colors, Zerkoff's red and Hydrak's gray. They walked out of the alley and made their way to the hospital.

Yusei's room

Luna felt a large amount of energy coming from far away. She gasped at how much power was being used. She stood up quickly which caught Leo's attention.

"Luna you ok?" He asked.

She shook her head no. "There's something coming. Something powerful I felt it last night before we got to Yusei."

"It must be those guys who did this to Yusei." Jack said, they all nodded at this.

"They must be here for Yusei." Sherry said.

Crow shook his head, "No, they're here for Stardust Dragon."

"They're here." Luna said looking out the window.

Everyone joined her and looked out into the street, the Luna pointed to a certain spot and they saw two cloaked figures making their way towards the hospital.

Then from behind them they heard a duel disk activate, they all spun around to see Jack with his duel disk on.

"What are you doing?" Crow asked.

"What does it look like Crow? I'm going to go teach those punks a lesson." Jack said annoyed.

"You just can't go out there alone Jack." Luna said.

Before Jack could reply they heard the sound of another duel disk activating. They looked and saw Akiza with her red duel disk on.

"He won't be going out there alone. I'm coming with you whether you like it or not." She told them. Jack was about to protest, but she sent him a glare that shut him up.

"Well stay here and guard Yusei." Crow said.

"Thanks", said Akiza, "Let's go Jack." Then the two of them walked out of the room.

Sherry noticed Crow had a worried expression on his face, "Something wrong Crow?" She asked.

"Nah just a bit worried." He told her.

"You don't think they will win?" She said.

"No I know they will win. It's just that I wonder if Akiza will be able to control her emotions." Crow said.

Hospital Lobby

Jack and Akiza stepped out of the elevator and into the lobby. They walked outside to the front of the hospital and waited for the hooded pair. They finally spotted them walking towards the hospital and soon they were only ten feet away from Jack and Akiza.

"So kind of you to come out and meet us signers." The gray cloaked one said with a smirk.

"Yes now hand over Stardust Dragon and you will not be hurt." The larger one in the red cloak said.

"We will never hand over Stardust to the likes of you, but we will give you a serious but kicking." Replied Jack.

The cloaked figures laughed at this and Jack was annoyed.

"What's so funny!?" He exclaimed.

The large one chuckled, "You believe you can defeat us after we have defeated your leader?"

Before Jack could reply Akiza spoke, "Why did you take him? What did he ever do to you?"

"He became a signer that is what." The gray cloaked one said.

The red cloaked one continued, "You signers have been tricked and deceived by the Crimson Dragon. You and those dragons are no heroes you are just puppets for the Crimson Dragon. He is the evil one."

"Yes and I was just cutting the strings of Mr. Fudo." The gray one cackled.

"That's a load of rubbish!" Exclaimed Jack.

"Believe what you want to, but we have a mission and that is to capture Stardust Dragon." The red one said.

"Well you have to go through us." Said Akiza defiantly.

The red cloaked one sighed, "Very well then. We will take him by force." Then he began walking away with the gray one. "Come let us go to a safer location." He said.

Akiza and Jack looked at each other then followed the cloaked figures. They came to a basketball court with fences around it. They walked in then closed the doors. The cloaked figures stood on the opposite side of the court.

"This will be a tag team battle. Everyone will begin with 4000 life points. Is that ok with you two?" The red one asked. Akiza and Jack nodded. "Now if you win we will give you back Yusei's soul, but we win your soul's will be taken along with you dragons and Stardust."

"Fat chance of that happening but ok" Jack said arrogantly.

"Good then." The red cloaked one said.

Then the two figures threw there cloaks off. The one under the red cloak was now a tall guy about Jack's height, he had a red Mohawk, and he wore red jeans and a plain red shirt. The smaller one was a guy around Crows height with messy emerald hair, he wore black pants and a green and gray t-shirt. They pulled out there duel disks and put their decks in. Jack and Akiza did the same.

"Let's Duel!" They all yelled.

"Ladies first." Said Zerkoff.

"My pleasure." Said Akiza.

"I draw." She looked at her hand and formulated a plan, "I summon Phoenixian Seed in attack mode." Next to Akiza a seed appeared with an eye in the middle and branches coming out of its top. "But my seed won't be around for long. For I am tributing it to summon my Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis." The seed next to her exploded and when the smoke cleared where the seed had been was a red, pink and yellow plant with a stem as a body.

Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis 2200/0000 Plant type, Level 8

"Then I play two cards face down and end my turn." She said ending her turn.

"My turn then" Zerkoff said, "I draw." He looked at his hand. "I summon Sinister Serpent to the field." Next to Zerkoff a large green cobra appeared. "H won't be around for long though I use Ultra Evolution Pill. This card allows me to tribute one reptile monster on my field to summon a dinosaur monster from my hand. So I will tribute Sinister Serpent so that I can summon my Black Tyranno." Sinister Serpent exploded and in its place was a large black tyrannosaurus.

Black Tyranno 2600/1800 Dinosaur type Level 7

"Next I will play two cards face down and end my turn." He finished

"My turn now. I draw." Said Jack. "I special summon my vice dragon from my hand since you have a monster and I do not." Next to Jack appeared a purple dragon with green wings.

Vice Dragon 1000/1200 Dragon type Level 5

"Next I summon Trust Guardian to my field. Next I tune my two monsters together for the instrument of your destruction." Jack said.

First a small angle with armor appeared on Jack's side of the field then it dispersed into three rings that went around vice dragon. "Now I summon Red Dragon Archfiend." Then there was a beam of light shot through the rings and vice dragon. When it faded there was a large red dragon with a pair of horns on its head and one on top where the two monsters had been.

"Next I will throw two face downs as well. Then I will end my turn."

"My turn now. I draw", said Hydrak, "I summon my Kuriboh in attack mode then I play two cards face down." Net to Hydrak appeared a cute little ball of fur with 4 little green hands. "Then I activate poison of the old man with this card I can either deal 800 points of damage to one of my opponents or gain 1200 life points. This time I will deal 800LP of damage to you Akiza."

An old man in a cloak appeared above Akiza with a purple and green vial. The old man frowned then spilled the contents of the vial onto Akiza. She felt her skin burn from the attack and gasped in pain.

"That attack was real. How did you do that? And how do you know my name." Akiza demanded.

Zerkoff chuckled, "We can easily use our powers to make the damage real it is but a simple matter. Now as to how we know both your name and Mr. Atlas's name. We know them because you are our targets. We know everything about you two and your friends. For us failure is not an option so we prepare as much as we can. You should be flattered." He told them. "Now let us continue the duel."

"Fine then." She responded. "Now I will end my turn." Said Hydrak.

"I draw", said Akiza "I summon Twilight Rose Knight to my field and with her effect I bring forth my Botanical Lion to the field." On Akiza's field appeared a small little female knight with black armor and a sword and a lion with a flower as a mane. "Then I will tune my level three Twilight Rose Knight and level four Botanical Lion." Twilight Rose Knight dispersed into three rings that surrounded Botanical Lion. "Now I summon Black Rose Dragon!" There was a flash of light and when it cleared there was a large rose red dragon with thorns and a long neck.

"So this is the great Black Rose Dragon and Red Dragon Archfiend." Zerkoff said.

"Now I will attack your Kuriboh with my Black Rose Dragon." Akiza commanded, Black Rose Dragon sent it's thorns towards Kuriboh.

"Not so fast, I activate my facedown Multiply!" Hydrak countered.

Before the thorns reached Kuriboh it spit into 5 others and went to defense mode. "My 'Multiply' allows me to create 4 more Kuriboh's and I can also switch their positions."

"So what I will destroy all of them one of a time then. Black Rose Dragon destroy one of those puffballs!" She shot back. Black Rose Dragon shot its thorns at one of Kuriboh's and destroyed it. "I end my turn." She said.

"My turn now." Zerkoff said as he drew his card, "Now I activate my Sinister Serpents effect from the graveyard so it comes back to my hand. Next I attack your Black Rose Dragon with my Black Tyranno."

"I activate my Rose Blizzard trap card, it switches your monster to defense mode." Akiza said. From the card came a blizzard of roses that hit Black Tyranno and forced it to its knees

Zerkoff grunted in response, "Very well I will now place a card face down and end my turn.

"My turn now. I draw." Said Jack, "I summon Twin Sword Marauder in attack mode." On the Jack's field appeared a big masked man with twin large swords.

Twin Sword Marauder 1600/1000 Warrior Type Level 4

"Now I will first attack your Black Tyranno with my Red Dragon Archfiend. Go Absolute Power force!" Red dragon Archfiends hand glowed red with power then struck Black Tyranno, it let out a roar then shattered. "Then I will attack you buddy's Kuriboh with my Twin Sword Marauder. Go Twin Sword Slash!" Twin Sword Marauder jumped forward and came down and slashed one of the Kuriboh's. It shattered with a boom. "And now you take damage due to my monsters effect." Jack said confidently with his eyes closed.

"Not with this card." Hydrak countered. Jack's eyes flew open. "What!?

On Hydrak's side of the field appeared a trap card face up. "I activate my Spirit Barrier. With this card as long as I have a monster on my side of the field I take no battle damage." He explained.

"Very well then I will use my monsters other effect which allows it to attack again if it just attacked a monster in defense mode. So I will attack your friend there. Now Twin Sword Marauder attack him directly." Jack said.

"Not so fast I activate my trap card Embodiment of Apophis. This card summons itself to the field as a monster in defense mode." Zerkoff countered.

In front of Zerkoff appeared a Naga like creature with a sword and a shield. It blocked Twin Sword Marauders attack then slashed it in the arm.

Embodiment of Apophis 1600/1800 Reptile type Level 4

"Fine then I end my turn." Grunted Jack.

"My turn now. I draw", said Hydrak, "I will now activate my Fires of Doomsday, then I tribute summon my Summoned Skull in attack mode." Next to the Kuriboh's appeared a large boney creature with horns on its head and a fog like creature with a single eye. "Then I equip it with my Axe of Despair which gives it an extra 1000 attack points.

Summoned Skull 2500/1200 – 3500/1200 Fiend Level 6

"Now Summoned Skull attack Red Dragon Archfiend. Lightning Strike!" Hydrak commanded.

Soon a bolt of lightning hit Red Dragon Archfiend with a bang, but when the smoke cleared Red Dragon Archfiend was still there but it had lost a horn.

"What is the meaning of this!? Your monster should have been destroyed!" Exclaimed Hydrak.

"Well unfortunately for you the tuner monster I used to summon Red Dragon Archfiend was Trust Guardian. And when a synchro monster that used Trust Guardian as its tuner monster would be destroyed by battle I can save it by making my monster lose 400 attack points.

"Curse you, but you still take damage from my attack." Hydrak said, "Now I will end my turn, but soon I will crush your dragon just like I did to Stardust Dragon"

Akiza heard what he said and so did Jack, "What!? You're the one who took Yusie's soul!?" They exclaimed.

"Oh whoops. Did I forget to mention that?" Said Hydrak feinting innocence then he chuckled.

Then the air grew colder and Hydrak became serious. Across the field Akiza was losing it this man had put Yusei into the state he was in now and had taken his soul, and he proceeded to laugh at it. "You will pay." She said darkly.

"Are you ok Akiza?" Jack asked.

"I'm fine!" She snapped.

"It's my turn now. I draw." She said she smiled at what she drew. "I summon evil thorn, and now I tribute it so I can deal 300 points of damage to you!" A plant with a spike metal bulb appeared next to Akiza then exploded and the scraps went towards Hydrak they ripped up his pant legs. She smiled in sick satisfaction, then frowned when she saw he wasn't in much pain from that attack. "I will then summon two more evil thorn due to the one I tributed's effect." Next to Akiza appeared two more Evil Thorns. "Then I will attack Embodiment of Apophis with Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis. Now destroy his monster!" Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis shot a breath of flames at Embodiment of Apophis, who shrieked in pain then exploded. Then Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis exploded as well. "When I attack with Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis it is destroyed after damage calculation, but you take 800 points of damage." The flames from Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis's explosion went straight to Hydrak who lightly winced.

"Now I will attack you with Black Rose Drago-" Then she was interrupted by Hydrak, "Oh and here I thought you wanted to make me pay for what I did, I guess you don't care about him as much as I thought." He said with a grin.

"Fine then Black Rose Dragon attack his Kuriboh now!" She said changing what she was going to say before. Black Rose Dragon shot its thorn forward and destroyed one of the Kuriboh's. "Now I end my turn with a face down", she said.

Jack couldn't believe what he had just witnessed Akiza was given a golden opportunity to attack the red guy directly, but she had given it up just to attack the guy who had beaten Yusei. Before he could continue his thoughts the red guy took his turn.

"My turn now." Zerkoff said, "Now I play my field spell Jurassic Seal." In the center of the field appeared a reddish brown hexagonal gem. From the bottom of it appeared a line that hit the ground then split into 6 lines that stretched to the outside of the field then were connected by a circle that surrounded the entire field. "This card increases all dinosaur monsters by 600 attack and defense points. Now I will summon Rescue Rabbit." In front of Zerkoff was now a cute little bunny rabbit wearing safety glasses, and a little yellow hat. "He won't be around for long though, I banish him to bring forth my two Sabersaurus's." The rabbit split into two then became larger, and in its place was two large light red triceratops's with horns as sharp as knives. "But even these two will not be hear for long. I play my face down card Double Summon now which allows me to normal summon another time this turn. Now I tribute both of my Sabersaurus's to summon my Jurrac Titano!" The two Sabersaurus's moved turned into two red sphere's that flew up into the air. Then there was flash of red, when it cleared in place of the two triceratopses was a humongous dinosaur. It had long claws, a long tail, and a long neck with razor sharp teeth. It roared a loud ear piercing roar.

Jurrac Titano 3000/2800- 3600/3400 Dinosaur Level 9

"Now Jurrac Titano attack Black Rose Dragon! Cretaceous Crunch." Zerkoff ordered. Jurrac Titano rushed forward to bite Black Rose Dragon.

"I activate my Illusion Destruction trap card, I select your Jurrac Titano to be flipped face down." Akiza countered.

"Unfortunately for you and your dragon my Titano cannot be targeted by trap cards." Zerkoff explained. Akiza gasped in shock as she watched her dragon have its head bitten by Titano and then shatter.

"Now I will end my turn." Zerkoff concluded.

"I'll make you pay for that. My move." Jack said as he drew his card, "I now summon my Dark Resonator, then I will activate my Double Summon Spell card so that I can summon my Sinister Sprocket." On Jack field appeared a cloaked fiendish creature with a tuning fork and a creature similar to a nail with a chain rapped around it. "Now I tune my Red Dragon Archfiend with my Dark Resonator and Sinister Sprocket." Dark Resonator and Sinister Sprocket turned into four rings that surrounded Red Dragon Archfiend. Then there was a flash of light appeared, "I now summon my Red Nova Dragon!" Where the three monsters had been was a dragon that was like Red Dragon Archfiend but larger and it had one big red horn going backward.

Red Nova Dragon 3500/3000 Dragon Level 12

"And my Red Nova Dragon gains 500 attack points for each tuner in my graveyard. I also can now destroy your Spirit Barrier because I used Sinister Sprocket for a dark type synchro summon." On Hydrak's side of the field appeared

Red Nova Dragon 5000/3000 Dragon Level 12

"Such power." Said Zerkoff

"Don't worry you will see it up close soon enough. Now Red Nova Dragon attack Summoned Skull. Blazing Soul Strike!" Jack commanded.

Red Nova Dragon flew forward at Summoned Skull with its claw in flames, then it slammed it into Summoned Skull with a boom. When the smoke cleared nothing was left of Summoned Skull.

"Now I will end my turn." Jack finished choosing not to attack with Twin Sword Marauder because of Hydrak's face down.

"My move now." Said Hydrak as he drew his card, "Now I will play one card face down, then I will activate my Monster Reborn to bring back my Summoned Skull then I summon my Dark Veiler." On Hydrak's field appeared Summoned Skull and also an all-black humanoid figure with short gray hair with 4 red scarfs that hung round it.

Dark Vieler 400/200 Fiend Level 2

"Now I will tune my Kuriboh token and my Summoned Skull with my Dark Veiler." Dark Vieler turned into two dark rings and surrounded the Kuriboh token and Summoned Skull." To summon my Dark End Dragon!" I front of Hydrak appeared a large black dragon with an evil face on its chest. "Now I will equip my Fairy Meteor Crush to my Dark End Dragon. Now Dark End Dragon attack Mrs. Izinski's Dark Thorn and end this duel for her! Now Dark End Dragon attack with Dark Fog!" Hydrak said. From Dark End Dragon's mouth came a black fog that shot straight towards Akiza. She had a shocked expression since she was going to be defeated.

"Not so fast! Red Nova Dragon activate your effect and stop that attack!" Jack yelled saving Akiza. Red Nova Dragon disappeared with a puff of red smoke that flew to intercept the Dark Fog attack.

Hydrak growled in anger, "Fine then since I cannot take her out this turn I will now activate my monster's effect by having it lose 500 atk and def points I can destroy one monster on my opponents side of the field and I choose Twin Sword Marauder!" Roared back. From Dark End Dragon's chest mouth came a black fog like its attack before. This time it headed for Twin Sword Marauder, it encased it then when it dissipated Twin Sword Marauder was gone. Then Dark End Dragon lost its hand because of its eff. "Now I end my turn." Then Red Nova Dragon appeared back on Jack's field. "You got lucky girl, even Yusei wasn't that weak how can you hope to get him back if you play like that. Is this the best the Black Rose Witch can do?" Hydrak taunted Akiza.

"I'll show you my true power then! You will see the witch then!" Akiza shouted back angrily. "My turn. I draw." Akiza looked at her hand. "I play pot of greed which allows me to draw two more cards." She drew two more cards quickly then looked at her hand and smiled darkly. "Time for you to pay! I play Monster Reborn from my hand to summon back a monster from my graveyard. Now return to the field Black Rose Dragon! Then I equip it with my Thorn of Malice giving it an extra 600 attack points. It also allows my monster to have the same effect as Jack's Twin Sword Marauder. Now attack his Kuriboh and destroy him!" Commanded Akiza Giant thorns came out of Black Rose Dragon and shot towards Kuriboh with killer intent.

"Not so fast now. I activate my face down card Crush Card Virus! And I will also use my Fiendish Chain trap on your Red Nova Dragon." Countered Hydrak.

"Oh no!" exclaimed Jack and Akiza. They watched as Kuriboh turned a grayish color and then began coughing then it exploded and the sparkles from it rained over Akiza and Jack's monsters as well as their and hand and decks. They watched as there Dragon's mirrored what happened to the Kuriboh.

"My Crush Card Virus allows me to tribute a dark monster with 1000 or less attack points to infect your deck and your monsters with my virus which destroys all monsters with 1500 or more attack points." Hydrak explained with a smirk.

Akiza looked horrified she had failed to avenge Yusei and now Jack and she were going to lose their souls and their dragons.

"I…I end my turn." Akiza managed to croak out.

"My turn then. I draw." Said Zerkoff. "I play Heavy Storm from my field to destroy your two face downs Mr. Atlas." A Twister showed up and flew at Jack's two face downs destroying them. "Now I play my Double Tail Slam which allows me to attack twice with monster if I give up half my life points."

Akiza 2000LP, Jack 3300LP, Hydrak 1400LP, Zerkoff 2000LP

As Zerkoff's life points went down Jurrac Titano split in two. "Now Jurrac Titano attack them both and end this duel. Cretaceous Crunch!" Both of the Jurrac Titano's shot towards Jack and Akiza. Jack and Akiza just stood in shock they had beaten so many others bent on world destruction before, but these two were something they had never seen before. They watched as the monsters drew closer, they saw their lives flash before their eyes. The good times and the bad times. Jack's time with his friends, his rise to be the king, the dark signers, the world racing grand prix, the Meklords, the Arc Cradle incident, leaving to become the world king, and finally Carly he was always amused by her antics to get close to him, but he found that kind of cute too. He wished he could have told her how he felt for her, he came close when she had caused herself to lose when she was a dark signer. She was part of what kept him going through those times, when he would feel down during his quest to be the world king he would think about her and how she wouldn't wanna see him give up. The thought of one day seeing her again was what kept him going, but now he would never see her again. "I'm sorry Carly." He said sadly then closed his eyes and waited for the end.

Akiza was doing the same she was reliving her harsh childhood and early teen years, but it all got better when she met one man, Yusei Fudo. She remembered their first duel he was the only one besides Sayer who could get through to her. She remembered their second duel, how he helped her during the dark signer's incident, how he got kidnapped and she and Mina had to save him, the duel on the duel runner and her irritation with Sherry, Yusei teaching her about turbo dueling and their first date as the twins called it, her victory against Trudge, her duel against Team Unicorn and Yusei giving her Stardust Dragon as a sign of trust, how she lost her powers and was knocked unconscious by Team Catastrophe, the Meklord invasion, Yusei facing Aporia, the Ark Cradle incident and regaining her powers, her giving Yusei Black Rose Dragon so that he could win the duel, his apparent death and how she felt her heart snap, his return and the joy it brought her, her graduation and her decision to go to medical school, Yusei's duel with Jack, how he inspired her to study abroad for medical school, their goodbye at the garage and how she almost told him she loved him, but chickened out, and team 5ds final ride together. She felt a tear slide down her cheek, "I'm sorry Yusei. I have failed you." She closed her eyes and waited for the end, she hoped she might be able to see Yusei when her soul was taken.

Then two Titano's finally hit the pair of signers. They both were thrown back against the metal fence with such force they were knocked out and the fence was dented "Pathetic, Yusei put up a better fight then those two did." Commented Hydrak

"Let's just take their souls and dragons, then get out of here." Zerkoff said as he commanded the gem to do just that. Two beams of light shot out of the gem and headed for Jack and Akiza.

"Not so fast. I will not let you take any more souls on my watch. With this fragment of the gem's I unlock the seal!" A voice said as a figure in a black cloak wearing a gray mask with a red line going down the middle and two red eyes jumped from the roof top next to the basketball court. He threw out his hand that glowed red, he hit the force field that prevented escape or entrance. There were sparks, then the seal shattered. And the two beams of light faded before they could hit the singers

"What is the meaning of this!?" Zerkoff roared in anger.

"I'm here to stop you. Now draw then I play Polymerization to fuse my Beast King of Swamps with my Meteor Dragon to summon my Meteor Black Dragon in attack mode." A spell card with a swirling vortex appeared then two lights from the mysterious figures hand shot towards the vortex. There was a flash of light and where the vortex had been there was now a large dark purple dragon with red pulsating veins. "Now I play a card Why Wait? This card allows me to play a trap card from my hand for the price of 1000 Life points."

"So I will play Ring of Destruction on my Meteor Black Dragon." On Meteor Black Dragon's neck appeared a collar with grenades attacked to it. Then there was an explosion from the ring that sent shockwaves all around.

Akiza 0000LP, Jack 0000LP, ? 0000LP Hydrak 0000LP, Zerkoff 0000LP

When the smoke cleared the mysterious masked figure was gone and so were the signers. "No!" Roared Hydrak and Zerkoff. "We must report this to Queen Sesha." Said Zerkoff to which Hydrak nodded. A purple vortex appeared behind them and they stepped through it.

New Domino City Hospital

Crow was getting worried Jack and Akiza had been gone for a while and they hadn't responded to any of his texts. He had been pacing around the room for the last 10 minutes Sherry tried to get him to sit down to no avail. Then they heard a vibrating noise it was coming from Crow's pocket. He pulled out his phone and saw Akiza was calling him he immediately answered it, "Akiza where have you been!?" He asked.

A voice responded but it wasn't Akiza's, "This is not Akiza. Now come to the roof alone quickly."

"Who are you? What have you done to Akiza!?" Crow demanded.

"I will explain when you come to the roof. Now goodbye." The voice said then hung up.

"Who was that?" Asked Luna.

"I don't know, but I am going to the roof to find out." Said Crow as he headed for the door.

"Well come with you." Said Leo

"No!" Snapped Crow and Leo flinched.

"Sorry, but he said to come alone and if Akiza or Jack is hurt we have to do as he says. Bedside's someone needs to stay with Yusei." Crow apologized. Leo nodded.

Sherry walked up to Crow and gave him a quick kiss, "Be careful Crow." She told him.

"Always babe." He told her then walked out the door. He made his way up the stairs and to the roof. When he came on to the roof what he saw surprised him. There was a man in a black cloak wearing a red eyed mask with a red line going down the middle. Behind him were Jack and Akiza on the ground propped up against the transformer box. (Ya know the big green thing.)

"Thank you for coming Crow." The masked man said.

"I came now give me answers!" Demanded Crow

"Very well then I am a man of my word. Your friends here were dueling probably two of the best duelists in the universe two of the gem holders. They lost to them, but before their souls were taken I stepped in and saved them." The masked man explained.

"How do I know you're not one of them?" Crow accused.

"Because I wouldn't have saved them or brought them here for you." The masked man countered.

"Touché." Crow said then asked, "Are they alright?"

"Mostly the last attack they took was very real. They have a few bruises and the female might have a broken rib." The masked man summarized, "They probably need to see a doctor."

"Yeah well thanks man." Crow said as he went over to Jack and Akiza to check on them.

"My pleasure. But keep an eye on the red head she could have took out a building with one of her attack if it had not been stopped." The masked man warned as he started to walk away.

"Wait!" Crow said and the man stopped, "Yes?" He asked.

"What's your name?" Crow asked.

The masked man chuckled, "No one has ever asked my name before, but you may call me Minshu-ruza. Goodbye Crow we will see each other again." He said then he stepped off the roof.

Crow ran to the edge of the roof in shock just in time to see the man deploy his glider and fly off. Can anything ever be normal around here? Crow thought. Then he called Sherry to tell her to get a pair of doctors up to the roof for Jack and Akiza.

Unknown Location

Hydrak and Zerkoff stepped through the portal into their world and made their way toward the mountain with the cave. At the base of the mountain where Sesha and Iango were sun bathing. When they got close they noticed that Sesha had noticed their presence. They stopped about 10 feet from her and Iango, and bowed.

"We have returned Queen Sesha." Zerkoff said.

"I am certain you bring news of you success?" Sesha said.

"No my Queen we have failed. We defeated two of the signers and almost had their dragons as well as Stardust. But then a masked figure appeared and broke my seal then played a suicide move with Ring of Destruction. When the smoke cleared they had disappeared, we are sorry my Queen." Zerkoff reported.

Sesha's expression went from disappointed to happy to shock and then to understanding while she listened to Zerkoff's report. "I see I am sure you did what you could. You may have failed, but you have collected vital information and shown that even the signers can be broken. As a punishment for your failures though, you will both hunt for everyone's meals tonight. Is that understood?" Sesha said.

"Yes my Queen you are truly merciful thank you." Zerkoff and Hydrak replied.

"Good now get going." She told them and soon they were off.

"How did you do that?" Hydrak asked as they walked off to hunt.

"It is quite simple my dear friend. If you cannot complete your mission you, succeed by giving them something almost as good." Zerkoff explained then they were off.

Sesha was pondering something and Iango notice this. "What is it Sesha?" He asked.

"From Zerkoff's report I can see that the Crimson Dragon will grow desperate quickly if 3 singers can be defeated and it takes a masked man to save them. This may be easier than I thought." Sesha explained with a smile.

"Don't grow over confident my mate." Iango warned.

"Do not worry Iango I will not be confident in total victory till I have the Crimson Dragon dead at our feet." Sesha responded.

"Yes, soon my mate you will have your revenge and we can finally be at peace." Said Iango back.

They soon flew back to their cave to take a nap till Hydrak and Zerkoff returned with dinner. In Sesha's dreams she pictured herself next to Iango with the Crimson Dragon dead at their feet and the signer dragons littering the ground around them with their carcasses. In the real world Sesha smiled in delight and let out a happy sigh as she scooted closer to her mate.

Well dang that was pretty emotional wasn't it? This was the longest chapter I have ever typed it is almost as long as the three previous chapters combined. Now I won't be updating for a while (Like 2 week's to a month probably.) Now I wanna shout out to those who left a review, It really means a lot to me, if you guy's hadn't reviewed I probably might not have been able to crank out this chapter this quick. I also would like to shout out to YU-Gi-OhFAN2000 for correctly guessing about Yusei, he will be returning later in the story, but not for awhile. Now I have an announcement to make I will be bringing 5 people from either the original series or GX into this story, but only for a single duel. I know I will be bringing Pegasus in, but I need help with the others. This is where you guy's come in within your Review please tell me who you would like to be put into the story, why, and who they should duel. The requirements are simple can't be Yugi, Kaiba or Jaden, they cannot be a villain, but they can be a villain turned ally. So please review It really helps and send me those names.
