Final chapter. It seems that every multichapter fic I write is shorter than the previous one.


«KOTORI!» yelled Yuma, stretching his arm towards her.

Player Kotori
LP 3250→50

The girl groaned as she tried in get back on her feet. «Kotori, I...» started Yoshio, bu he was cut out. «Wait, I'll help you!» Yuma ran to her, and helped her by wrapping his arm around her shoulders, and letting her hold herself on him. «Are you okay?» he whispered. Kotori nodded, putting her face on his shoulder to rest a few seconds. Yuma glared at Yoshio. «How you dare hurting her...» he growled.

Yoshio seemed regretful. «I... I only wanted...» he tried to say, but the words died in his throat. He looked down. «I never meant to hurt her like this.» he murmured, then raised again his head. «But I swear Kotori, when I'll win this Duel and you will be my girlfriend, you'll be always treated like a princess. My princess.» All the other girls squealed, causing Yuma to snap. «YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WIN, NO, YOU'RE ABOUT TO GO SOOOO DOWN!» he yelled irritated, while hugging Kotori tight. Her eyes opened slightly. «Yuma...»

The boy gently sat down Kotori on the ground, then thrust his arm towards their opponent. «Come on! End your turn so that I can kick you as you deserve!» he said. Yoshio looked at him coldly. «If you really want to, I'll give you a chance. But first, my card shall cut down your hope. Hand Breaker o hatsudō!» A Magic Card appeared on Yoshio's field. «With this card, I can discard a random one from your hand!» Yuma grimaced as he looked down at the three cards in his hand: Rank-Up-Magic - Numeron Force, Shadowlizard, and Crane Crane. —If I draw a Level 4 monster the next turn, I can Normal Summon it, then Special Summon Shadowlizard, overlay them for Aspiration Emperor - Hope, and after then Rank it Up into Hope Ray V.—

*Yuma's thoughts*

Hope Ray V unleashes its two swords and the Chaos Overlay Unit explodes. —If it destroys King Artorius, by its own effect it will inflict 2200 points of damage, reducing Yoshio's Life Points to 1600, then it can attack him directly for the game.— V swirls its swords through the opponent's monster, then Yoshio too, who is blasted backwards, his Life Points from 3800 becoming 0.

*scene change*

—Otherwise, I can use Crane Crane to Special Summon Achacha Archer from my Graveyard, then overlay them for a Rank 3 monster. Maybe Levice Dragon or Acid Golem.— Both Numbers flashed into Yuma's mind, the former roaring fiercely, the latter splashing purple acid from his arms. —I bet those two would awesome as Chaos Numbers.— he admitted.

*scene change #2*

—But, If I lose Numeron Force, no one of my monsters will be able to defeat his, leaving him with a still powerful monster that can attack two times in a row.— Kotori lands on the ground with her Life Points reduced to 0 by an attack, while King Artorius destroys Yuma's monster with its swords, and then inflicts to Yuma the same destiny as Kotori. —Yoshio at that point would probably attack directly the both of us after destroying my monster with his one's effect.—

*End thoughts*

—I only have to hope that he don't chooses Numeron Force.— he assured himself. Yoshio scrutinized the three cards on a screen. «I choose the one on your left!» Yuma's eyes widened. «No!» The card drowned into the abyss of the Graveyard. Yoshio smirked. «Oh look what a good card who were hiding in your hands...» he mocked. Yuma grunted. «Turn E...»

«Trap hatsudō!» cut in Kotori. Everyone looked at her, seeing her raising her hand. «Shock... Draw!» Her face-down card arose face-up. «With this card.. gh, I can draw 1 card for each 1000 points of damage I took this turn!» Her Deck glowed as she placed her hand on it. «This turn I took 3200 points of damage! This means I draw... hn, 3 cards!» Kotori pulled out 3 cards from her Deck, and looked at them: Double Magic, Charge, and Fallen Angel - Desire. She added them to her hand with Treasure Cards of the Sky. «Keh. Turn End.» finished Yoshio.

Kotori struggled to get up. «Are you all right Kotori?» asked Yuma worried. Kotori grinned and gave him a thumb-up. «Yeah. I-I can continue.» she said. «Are you sure? Maybe it's better if I take your turn...» he said. Kotori shook her head. «No. It's my turn. I must conduct it. Otherwise I wouldn't be a true Duelist if I let someone Duel instead of myself.» Yuma looked at her unsure, then smiled. «I understand.» He then gave her his own thumbs-up. «Go Kotori! I believe in you!» Kotori smiled wider, then glared at Yoshio. «Get read Yoshio. Here I come! I'll show you that I'm the only one who can decide about life! Watashi no turn!» Kotori thrust her arm upward, toward the sky. «Kattobingu yo, WATASHI!» Kotori then put her hand on her Deck and swiftly extracted a card, twirling. «DRAW!»

Glacing at the card, she instantly recognized it as Resurrection of the Dead. «Watashi wa Magic Card, SHISHA SOSEI O HATSUDŌ!» As it flashed, she shoved the card in the Duel Disk. Her face was determined. «From Yuma's Graveyard, I revive Gagaga General!» Yuma's Xyz Monster arose from a purple portal, then shoved his sword into the ground.

«What?!» asked Yoshio surprised. «My monster?» wondered Yuma. Kotori smirked as she held another card. «Don't worry, this is my strategy! Magic Card, Double Magic o hatsudō!» The card she held flashed as Kotori inserted Treasure Cards of the Sky into the Graveyard slot. «By discarding a Magic Card, I can activate another one from my opponent's Graveyard!» Yoshio stared at her. «What are you planning?» he asked. Kotori grinned at him. «This!» A purple portal opened in front of Yuma, from which emerged a familiar Magic Card, whose sight shocked Yuma. The card flashed brightly, then flew in Kotori's hand. She held the card high. «Rank-Up-Magic - Numeron Force!» she cried.

«Wait Kotori...!» said Yuma, but in that instance, something shot through her, causing her eyes to widen. A golden aura appeared around her, and her body shook slightly. «Aaaaaaahhhhgggggg!» A wince of pain escaped from her as the card continued to erupt energy. Yuma stared half-worried and half-horrified at her. «You don't have the Power of Chaos... You can't control Numeron Force...» he murmured. Kotori forced her eyes to open as some sparks ran through her. «But...» she whispered with a breathy voice. «...I have my will! Ahr... I want to win with my forces, and be worthy of you...!» Yuma seemed speechless. Her eyes gritted and she looked forward. «This card Ranks-Up my Xyz Monster... hggn, and Special Summon a Chaos Xyz!»

«Watashi wa... Rank yon no Zubaba General de... OVERLAY!» The warrior turned orange and shot up in the sky, then exploded into azure energy. «Ittai no monster de... Overlay Network o, kh, saikōchiki! CHAOS XYZ CHANGE!» Zubaba General was fluctuating with its arm and legs spreaded. Then, new armor pieces attached themselves on its body, creating a new armor. A new helmet covered the old one, having some chinese-like decorations and four cimieros. An orange Overlay Unit orbited around it. The newly armored monster swirled its sword and assumed a battle pose. «Chaos Xyz: Zubaba Saikyō (Strongest)... General

«Chaos Xyz?» wondered Yoshio. «My Zubaba General... Ranked Up...» murmured Yuma. Kotori thrust her arm forward. «Numeron Force no sarani no kōka o hatsudō! The effects of all cards on the field except the monster Special Summoned by its effect are negated until the end of this turn!» Yoshio went wide-eyed. «What did you say?!» King Artorius groaned weakly as its Equipped Cards stopped giving him power.

«Saikyō General no kōka o hatsudō!

Kotori raised her arm. «Zubaba Saikyō General, King Artorius o KŌGEKI!» The Chaos Xyz leapt forward and prepared to strike with its sword. Kotori then slapped another card on the Duel Disk. «Sokkō Mahō, Tosshin (Charge), hatsudō!» The Instant Magic appeared on the field and wrapped the Xyz Monster with a flaming aura. «With this card, my monster gains 700 ATK!» Yoshio's eyes widened greatly. «700?!»

«6000 ATK!?» cried the crowd. «This Duel ends now!» said Kotori. «Zubaba, obliterate him!» Hearing the order, the monster sliced King Artorius several times with its sword, tearing it into digital pieces. The force of the blows made Yoshio fall backward, on his back. «AAAAHHHUUU!»

The spectator remained silent for some seconds, then they started applaud and cheering for Kotoyu. «What a surprise ending!»

«Yeah, Kotori's love for Yuma allowed her to use his cards to win the Duel!»

«How romantic!»

Yuma ran to her. «Kotori!» Kotori smiled widely and hugged him. «We won Yuma!» Yuma chuckled and hugged her back. «No, you won.» he whispered. He looked in her eyes. «I never imagined you had the strength of handing the Power of Chaos. You deserve a reward for your good wo...» Without even waiting him to finish the sentence, she kissed him deeply, which he eagerly returned. A loud «Awwwww!» was heard.

Meanwhile, was getting back to his feet. «I never thought I could have been defeated by a girl...» he murmured. He then looked at them, still kissing lovingly. «Yuma.» The two teens broke apart, letting Yuma look back at the boy. «You won. Despite how much I hate to say it, a deal is a deal, so Kotori is yours.» Kotori pouted. «I'm not owned by anyone! I was the one who chose him when we were younger!» Yoshio pokerfaced. «And just for your information, you know, I'm not so innocent.» she said. «W-what do you mean with this?» stuttered Yoshio. «I forced Yuma to kiss me that way today on the roof, and also...» She darted her eyes around, then leaned in his ear. «..we already had our first time when we were 13...» she whispered. Yoshio's face became blank. «Y-you t-two... already... that...» he blabbed.

«He's a bit pervert, but I don't mind it, because I love him.» she said. Yoshio looked at them. «F-fine... if you are happy this way...» Yoshio then turned, and started walking away. «Goodbye you two. Get ready, because someday we'll have a rematch!» he said. «You bet!» replied both Yuma and Kotori at the same time. The fangirls followed Yoshio, leaving the two alone.

«What about doing homework at my place?» he suggested. Kotori raised an eyebrow and smirked. «Only homework?» Yuma chuckled. «Do I have to reply?» Kotori stole another kiss from his lips, then both made their way towards Yuma's house.

«Kattobingu yo, watashi!»

«Kattobingu da, ore!»

Yay for innuendo! XD What do you think of this finale?

This chapter is actually a reference to the kids manga "Yu-Gi-Oh! D-Team ZEXAL". In chapter 20, Kotori is Dueling an Obot, but she is exhausted due to having to deal with a Bujin Deck. Yuma (after hugging her in a heroic pose) takes over for her, Ranks-Up Fairy Cheer Girl and defeates Bujin - Susanowo with Dark Fairy Cheer Girl. Here the roles are reversed.

Not to mention that Saikyo General is a card from that manga too.
