bopdog111: Hey guys. Glad to be back on this after Easter. Hope you guys had a fun Easter.
Ulrich362: That goes to you too Bopdog.
bopdog111: Well here is Alex's time with Yugo, and Rin before the latter was taken by Yuri. It shows of what happened the day after Alex called Rin mommy, and we will see what happens from here on there.
Ulrich362: They have no idea what's going to happen, but the good times will last for a little while right Bopdog?
bopdog111: Indeed.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but we own the OCs!
Ulrich362: Enjoy!
It was a day after Yugo and Rin met Alex and took her in their care. Alex opened her eyes slowly, and yawned. The sounds of people working on a machine entered her ears.
'This is loud...' She thought before walking to the sound. Yugo and Rin were working on their duel runner only for Rin to notice her.
"Oh, did we wake you up?" she asked. "Sorry."
"It's fine..." Alex told her before yawning. Rin chuckled walking over to her. "Do you want anything to eat?"
Alex nodded rubbing her eyes to get the sleep out. Yugo put down a wrench before walking over. "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I'll go grab some stuff, anything in particular you want?"
"Healthy stuff." Alex answered. Yugo nodded before walking off.
"Um... Alex can I ask you something?" Rin asked her. Alex looked at her nodding rubbing her left eye.
"Well... when you went to sleep last night you... called me mommy."
Alex widen her eyes before asking, "Oh... I'm so sorry about that! I shouldn't have said that! Please don't be mad I mean..." Rin shook her head before gently hugging her.
"I'm not mad, it's just... did you not have a good life in the Tops?"
"Well I..." Alex trailed off.
"I understand, if you don't want to talk about it you don't have to. Just know that Yugo and I are here for you."
Alex with tears admitted, "I... I never had a mommy..." Rin's eyes widened in shock as she hugged Alex. "I'm so sorry. That must have been hard."
"And... And... My daddy was... was a real meanie..." Alex cried in her arms.
"Do you want to tell me what happened?" Rin asked holding her. "I promise, Yugo might be a bit clueless and act without thinking but he's a kind person."
Alex sobbed before telling her what happened. Lately her father had only cared about business, and paid no attention to her, and seemed to only think she's only a bother in his life, and punishes her whenever she bothers him. 2 weeks ago while he, and her were in a limo on a business trip stopping for a moment that was a little muggle, and soon a robber shot her father dead, and stole the money threatening he'll do the same to her if she doesn't get out of the way.
Rin looked horrified hearing that and held Alex closer. "I'm so sorry. Nobody deserves to have that happen." Alex continued crying in her arms.
"Alex, do you want me and Yugo to be your mommy and daddy?" Rin asked. "We're not Tops and don't have much to offer compared to what you probably had before."
Alex widen her eyes looking at Rin. She was smiling gently. "I mean it, if that would make you feel a little better. You're a kind girl, I can tell and you deserve to have a family."
"Y-You really want me... To be your little girl?" Alex asked her thinking she's hearing things. "Only if you want us to be your parents." Rin answered. "You don't have to do anything you don't want to do."
Alex soon started crying hugging Rin tight. She just held her rubbing her back gently.
"...Yes."
Rin nodded softly. "Then when Yugo gets home we can tell him. And don't worry I promise everything will be ok."
Alex nodded hugging her. Twenty minutes later Yugo came back holding a few bags of groceries. "I'm back!" He called.
"Welcome home daddy." Rin called.
"Hey Rin-What?" Yugo asked confused. "Daddy?" Rin nodded. "That's right."
She then explained everything that happened while he was gone.
Yugo looked shocked, and horrified hearing both of them.
Alex was sitting on a chair looking over her cards. He walked over to her. "Hey, Alex?" Alex looked over. Yugo was smiling warmly. "So, daddy huh?" Alex blushed but nodded. Yugo smiled taking out his cards. "Well, do you want to have a friendly game?"
Alex looked over before looking at her own cards before answering softly, "Well uh... I never really used these much..."
Yugo smiled. "Well as your dad it's my job to teach you, so one day the three of us can enter the Friendship Cup and win." "The what Cup?" Alex asked confused.
"The Friendship Cup, a huge dueling tournament that Rin and I were going to enter." Yugo answered before explaining their plans to enter, defeat Jack Atlas, and try to change the city.
Alex nodded asking the info before looking at her deck before smiling, "I want to help out..."
Yugo smiled putting her cards to the side and taking her hand. "I might not know the first thing about being someone's dad, but I promise I'll do everything I can to keep you and Rin safe. You have my word that I won't let anyone hurt you."
Alex hugged him hearing that. He hugged her back. "Thanks... daddy." Alex smiled. He just smiled and held her.
Rin sat on Alex's other side, and held her also.
Alex sighed softly happy.
"We might not be perfect, or even know what we're going. But from today forward we're a family." Rin whispered.
Alex smiled before grinning, "Hey mommy?" "Yeah?" Rin asked. "Tag!" Alex grinned taping her arm before beginning to run off. "Alex, don't run in here." Rin scolded. Yugo chuckled a bit. "You gotta admit Rin she sure is wild minded. We should take this outside."
She laughed. "You have a point. Ok Alex you want to play tag lets find somewhere a little less crowded ok?"
Alex nodded. The three of them then put the food away before walking out and heading to find a park.
3 Months later...
Soon Alex, and the two were on summon vacation heading to a beach to have fun. While Yugo insisted on working on the Duel Runner, Rin and Alex kept telling him their are other times to work on it, and besides even he needs a break.
"Oh man, could this be a more perfect day?" Yugo asked. "The sun is shining, the water is great. You two were right we definitely needed this."
"Yeah I agree. Even since this is Alex's first time here." Rin smiled. The two of them turned to their daughter and smiled. They were seeing her making a sand castle with a happy smile.
Rin walked over before crouching down. "Do you need any help?" Alex turned before shaking her head, "Thanks though mommy." Rin smiled. "Well ok."
Alex smiled at her.
Rin walked back to Yugo.
"She's a wonderful girl. Her coming into our life was one of the best things that could have happened." he mentioned. She nodded in agreement. "Though I wish we could help her before..." She trailed off. He nodded. "Yeah, I feel the same way."
They smiled at each other.
Suddenly they begun to hear Alex crying. The two of them immediately ran over to her.
"Alex, what's wrong?" Rin asked. They seen her sand castle was stomped to the ground. Yugo looked shocked. "Who did that?"
"Man... That idiot!" They see a green hair boy breathing heavily was there before telling, "Sorry... That was my friend. He thought it be fun to stomp down that castle she was making." "Where is he?" Yugo asked.
"Ran off over there." The boy answered pointing to a direction. "I tried to stop him, I really did but he didn't listen."
Yugo nodded before running off.
"Does your friend do things like this often..." Rin started before pausing.
"Yeah. He mostly gets away with it, and puts the blame on me." The boy answered. "And I am getting really tired of being his Guinea Pig."
"What's his name?"
"Sly." The boy answered.
Suddenly Yugo came back holding a boy by the arm. "Now you are going to apologize for ruining Alex's sand castle."
The boy struggled, "Hey it isn't me! It was him!" He pointed at the green hair boy.
Yugo turned to Alex. "Which one of them was it?" Alex looked nervous. She never likes to lie but is afraid of what Sly would do if she tells the truth. Rin knelt down. "It's ok, you can tell daddy."
Alex nodded before slowly points to Sly. Yugo nodded. "Well, say you're sorry." Sly grunted before saying, "I'm sorry for destroying your terrible castle." Yugo glared at him as Rin comforted Alex who started tearing up again.
"What's your problem, she didn't do anything to you." he told Sly.
"No but she needs to know around here I rule here." Sly glared. "Oh, and why is that?" Rin questioned.
"I am better then anyone else here." Sly answered. "I'm from the Tops, and my parents decided to come to the Commons beach and frankly I find it horrible."
That was the breaking point as Yugo glared at Sly. "You two are from the Tops huh?" The green hair boy shuddered as Sly glared, "Yeah. So what?"
"Well I have an offer for you, we duel. If you win we'll leave, but if I win you have to genuinely apologize to Alex and promise never to treat Commons like that again." Yugo told him. "Or are you afraid of someone usurping your 'rule'?"
Sly smirked before saying, "Very well on two conditions."
"Alright, what are they?" Yugo asked.
"One is I am dueling her." Sly smirked pointing at Alex. "And two if I win she'll have to be what you call girlfriend. After all I do find her attractive." Yugo's eyes widened in shock before turning to Alex and turning back to him. "I said you're dueling me."
"Then no deal." Sly smirked. Yugo turned to her. "What do you think, its your choice Alex. If you don't want to duel you don't have to."
Alex swallowed nervously before activating her Duel Disk. Yugo nodded. "We believe in you sweetie."
"Win or lose, just do your best." Rin encouraged her.
Alex nodded as the green hair boy stared on as Sly smirked.
Rin, Yugo, and the green-haired boy stepped back to give them some space.
"DUEL!"

Sly 1st Turn:
"Ok little girl, I'll set one card and play a monster in defense mode." Sly smirked. "That'll do for now."
Alex 1st Turn:
Alex drew, and looked over her hand wondering which one to play.
"Take your time Alex." Yugo smiled.
Alex nodded taking a look over.
"Okay... I'll summon Crystron Smiger in defense mode!" A mechanical gray, and yellow tiger appeared yowling with 1800 defense points.

Sly's expression instantly darkened. "What the, how does a Common like you have a Crystron card?"
"Actually 2 weeks ago... I'm a Top myself." Alex admitted looking down.
The green-haired boy looked shocked. "What... what happened?"
Alex looked saddened before explaining everything.
The green-haired boy looked horrified and took a step towards her only for Sly to glare at him causing him to flinch and stop.
"So in other words, you're nothing more than trash now." Sly summarized coldly. "Then just surrender, like I said once I win you're my girlfriend and you have to realize its better than living with these Commons."
Alex shook her head, "They... Might not be perfect. But their the family I deserve."
Sly glared at them. "Once I beat you it won't matter anyway because I'm not losing to anyone."
"Well next I start with the spell, Big Wave Small Wave!" Alex continued before the ocean at the beach started a ripple before splashing away Crystron Smiger.

"I get it, so now you'll have two monsters while Sly only has one." the green-haired boy realized.
Alex summoned back Smiger in action. "However his Special abilities are negated."
Sly glared at the two monsters.
"Now... Uh how's does that work again?" Alex asked looking over her monsters.
"You're joking." Sly stated in disbelief.
"Sorry." Alex said sheepishly. "I don't use these too much as a Top."
Rin smiled. "It's ok Alex, you look at the levels remember?"
Alex looked over, and nodded.
Her parents were nodding back with reassuring smiles on their faces. Alex looked before saying, "L-Level 2 Citree tune with Level 3 Smiger!"

"Play defense so often and I'll assume you want me to beat you." Sly pointed out.
Alex only said, "Unfortunately when I Synchro Summon with Citree the monsters used are banished instead of going to the graveyard." She pocketed Smiger, and Citree.
Everyone just watched, her parents smiling, the green-haired boy nervously, and Sly impatiently.
"I place 1 card face-down. Your turn." Alex ended.

"Whatever." Sly shrugged it off.
Jiaotu: (DEF: 2000 - 2000 = 0)

Crystron Smiger appeared back.
Alex 2nd Turn:
Alex drew, and looked over. "Oh can you please stop wasting my time and just duel already?" Sly snapped.

"Level 5 Accel Synchron tune with level 4 Old Entity Hastorr!" Alex cried.

"No. Phoenix' activates." Alex answered. "When Synchro Summoned all spell, and traps on your field, and graveyard are banished!"

Alarmed they looked up.
It was starting to rain.
"Uh oh we better go!" The green hair boy cried.
Alex: 4000
Sly: 4000
Duel ended with no result.
Sly glared at Alex. "We'll finish things some other time."
With that he walked off. "Come on Leo, we're leaving."
The green-haired boy nodded before turning to Yugo, Rin, and Alex.
"Sorry for all the trouble."
They nodded before Alex walked to him, and smiled "Thanks for being honest." Before giving him a soft kiss on the cheek.
Leo blushed slightly before running off after Sly.
Yugo, Rin, and Alex ran themselves to get away from the rain. When they got back home Yugo was smiling. "You did a great job Alex, I'm sorry our day of fun had to end though." Alex nodded, "Though... I think I won that match."
"I agree." Rin smiled.
"No I'm serious." Alex said before showing her set card which was Torrenital Reborn, and one card in her hand Limiter Removal. Her parents looked surprised before Yugo smiled.
If the duel had continued she would of used those two cards, and defeated Sly. "Looks like the weather beat you, but now you know you can beat him next time." he chuckled.
Alex nodded before checking to see if her Duel Disk, and Deck were wet. Her duel disc was a little wet but not damaged and her cards were dry. She sighed in relief. Rin chuckled seeing that.
"What's so funny?" Yugo asked her. "She's like you, so worried about her duel disc. It's cute." She answered.
Alex blushed a bit. Her parents hugged her. Alex hugged them back.
1 year later...
It had been a year ever since the incident with her, and Sly and they had been practicing for the Friendship Cup. Currently Rin, and Alex were shopping for parts on the Duel Runner before Alex bumped into someone familiar.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't..." the person started before pausing. "Wait, do I know you?"
Alex looked to see it was Leo. "Leo? Is that you?"
"Wait, Alex right? What are you doing here?" Leo asked blushing.
"Me, and Mommy are getting parts for our Duel Runner back for Daddy." Alex answered.
Leo looked surprised. "He has a duel Runner? That's awesome."
"Well we are using it for the Friendship Cup." Alex told him. "What are you doing here?"
"No!" Leo cried suddenly before looking embarrassed and blushing a bit more. "I mean... it's too risky, you didn't know exactly how your deck worked and entering the Friendship Cup might be too much for you."
"I've been practicing." Alex told him.
"Its still a really bad idea." Leo said turning to Rin. "She isn't entering is she, I mean Sly's gotten even stronger and if they duel and she loses..."
"She won that duel Leo. She has Torrential Reborn, and Limiter Removal waiting." Rin told him. Leo's eyes widened but he still looked worried. "What if she loses though, aren't you her mom shouldn't you be stopping her?"
"Why should I stop her? She wants to change this city like us." Rin answered.
"But if she loses we'l..." Leo started before shaking his head. "You'll never see her again."
Alex looked scared hearing that. Leo turned to her. "Promise you won't enter."
"Well I... Uh..." Alex trailed off unsure what to do. Suddenly someone called Leo's name.
"Be right there sis. Just say you won't compete." he requested again.
Alex looked sadden but said, "Sorry Leo... I can't do that. I want to change this city like daddy, and mommy..."
Leo's face showed how hurt he was hearing that before he looked down and ran off. Alex looked down herself. Rin took her hand. "Are you ok?" "I... I don't know..." Alex answered feeling guilty seeing Leo's hurt face.
"Come on, lets just go home for today."
Alex nodded to her. The two of them walked off. They walked in the house as Yugo looked over, "Did you guys get the stuff?" Alex shook her head as Rin explained what happened.
Yugo looked surprised. "Never see Alex again if she loses what kind of rule is that?" "I don't know, but... Alex can you excuse mommy and daddy for a minute?" Rin requested.
Alex nodded walking to the living room. "Yugo, when he was telling us about what would happen Leo started to say 'We'll never see her again.'" Rin told him.
"'We'll'?" Yugo asked surprised.
Rin nodded. "Yugo, I think he might have a crush on her."
Yugo thought before saying, "Might be that kiss Alex gave him the last time we saw him."
"Maybe, I don't know if Alex realizes it though." Rin admitted. "He was really worried about her though, maybe we should just watch the Friendship Cup this time and see what he was talking about."
Yugo nodded in agreement before they heard a crash, and a yell of pain.
Worried the two of them ran towards the sound of the crash.
They see Alex was holding her leg in pain, and a lamp on the table have shattered on the ground. Rin walked over. "What happened?"
"M-Mouse..." Alex answered sniffing. Yugo nodded in understanding. "I'll take care of it, you let Rin look at your leg ok?"
Alex nodded with tears in her eyes. Rin walked over and helped her to her feet as they left the room.
"Ok where are you?" Yugo asked looking for the mouse. Hearing a little squeak, and looked to see a mouse was there nibbling on something. Yugo grabbed Alex's trash can slowly before quickly dropping it over the mouse trapping it. The mouse started to softly claw on the trash can attempting to escape.
"Sorry little guy, but you need to go outside now." Yugo grinned before quickly flipping the can over with the mouse inside it.
He let the mouse out as it quickly ran to get away. After that he walked over to Rin and Alex. "The mouse is safely outside now." They both nodded as Rin could see Alex's leg a bit bruised, and is bleeding a little.
"Yugo, could you get me some paper towels to wipe her leg?" she requested.
Yugo nodded walking to find some. "Does it still hurt?" Rin asked. Alex nodded sniffing. Rin smiled gently kissing Alex on the forehead. "Mommy will take care of it."
Alex smiled tearfully, "T-Thanks... Mommy..." Rin just nodded as Yugo walked back and she gently cleaned Alex's injury before starting to bandage it up. Alex watched as her leg was bandaged.
When it was done Rin and Yugo were smiling.
"How does it feel?"
Alex looked before smiling, "Better already."
Her parents both smiled hearing that.
"I love you both." Alex smiled.
"We love you too." Rin smiled.
Alex smiled softly at this.
1 year later...
Another year has passed, and now Alex is a 7 year old girl helping Yugo, and Rin with their dream of helping this city change. Her, and Leo have also been seeing each other sometimes, and she started to have feelings for him but was afraid of what he thinks. She decides to help ask her mother for help.
"Mommy?"
"Yeah, what is it sweetie?" Rin asked.
"Uh... How did you, and daddy admit each other?" Alex asked blushing.
"Huh what do you mean?" Rin asked blushing herself.
"Like... How you said you loved each other." Alex answered. "Oh... um actually we haven't." Rin admitted. "Yugo and I grew up in the same orphanage and became really good friends. We're staying here because we want to change the city for the better but actually we haven't done that yet. Why?"
Alex looked down blushing, "I..."
Rin suddenly smiled. "Do you want to go see if he's buying parts?"
Alex looked at her mother confused, and surprised.
She was just smiling and offered her hand.
Alex blushed before taking her hand.
The two of them walked down to the shop before Rin noticed someone and paused letting Alex walk ahead. Alex walked ahead looking around. "Al... Alex?" asked a voice from one of the shops.
She looked over. It was Leo blushing standing next to a green-haired girl. "Leo..." Alex blushed back. "Oh, you're Alex." the girl smiled walking up. "My name's Luna, Leo's sister."
Alex nodded, "Nice to meet you." Luna smiled. "I'll leave you two alone." Alex blushed at that. Luna walked off leaving Leo and Alex alone.
"Um... it's really nice to see you again." Leo started nervously.
"...Nice to see you again Leo." Alex said nervously. Leo looked down awkwardly. 'Oh man, why is this so hard? Luna's right just tell her so why am I scared?' His thoughts were interrupted by Alex suddenly hugging him.
Leo's eyes widened as he slowly hugged her back. "Alex?"
"I'm... I'm scared." She started crying softly.
"Huh, of what?" Leo asked trying to comfort her.
"Of... Of not seeing mommy, and daddy again..." Alex sobbed. "Since you told me, and mommy... If I lose... We can't see each other anymore... I want to help... change the city but... if I lose..."
Leo immediately nodded in understanding. "I know how you feel, Luna and I are Tops but we want things to change too. It's not fair, that's why... this year I'm entering the Friendship Cup."
Alex looked up at him.
It's a huge risk, but I've been training for years to be ready and I have my ace card. My secret weapon." Leo smiled.
"Alex looked before saying, "Then... If your entering I should too." "No!" Leo snapped. "I..."
He took a deep breath before closing his eyes.
"I don't want to risk losing someone I care about."
Alex looked surprised. Leo was blushing.
"I... I care about you two Leo." Alex told him. Leo's eyes widened in shock. "Alex you..." Alex nodded blushing leaning into his chest. Leo held her. "I... I don't want you to compete alone Leo... Please... Let me compete with you..." Alex told him. "But..." Leo started nervously. "What if we have to duel each other?"
"..." Alex didn't answer sobbing in his arms.
Leo just held her trying not to cry himself. "Leo... Please let me compete..." She begged.
Leo didn't say anything but just nodded as his eyes filled with tears.
Alex started crying as Leo hold her.
Unaware to them a familiar purple hair boy wearing a cloak was spying on them smirking, 'That girl looks like Lilly... Whatever she's not who I'm after...'
He walked off into the shadows.
7 Months later...
Rin was walking home in the night until she felt a shudder, and looked behind her seeing the cloaked boy.
Seeing the boy Rin started walking faster.
The boy started to walk faster to her.
That frightened Rin as she started to run sending a message to Yugo.
The boy smirked running after her.
She continued running trying to get away before realizing she'd reached a dead end.
"Looks like someone reached a dead end." The boy smirked walking to her. "I'll admit my dear you know how to put up a good chase."
"Who are you?" Rin asked fearfully.
"Me? My name is Yuri the Professor's most trusted student, not to brag." The boy smirked. "Now your coming me. The easy way or the hard way, and I usually prefer the hard way."
Rin looked terrified.
Somewhere away from Rin, and Yuri was Yugo is on his duel runner, and Alex was sitting with him having gotten Rin's message.
"Come on... Where are you Rin?" Yugo grunted looking around.
"Is mommy gonna be okay?" Alex asked him fearfully.
"Yeah, we'll find her." Yugo answered before speeding up.
Eventually they found Yuri who has a unconscious Rin over his shoulder as he looked over to them.
"Let her go!" Yugo shouted at him.
"Sorry... But I am afraid I can't do that." Yuri smirked. "Do mind giving me who you are?"
"I'm Yugo, and you're going to let Rin go." Yugo answered activating his duel disc. "Right now!"
"Yugo?" Yuri asked before he started to laugh.
"Let mommy go!" Alex yelled at him.
Yuri looked over, and said "Like I said my dear... I can't do that."
He activate a spell called Violet Flash which made a bright light admitted. "I'll be seeing you two later."
Yugo and Alex shielded their eyes before the light faded revealing Yuri and Rin were gone.
"Mo...mommy? Mommy!" Alex cried as she started sobbing.
"RIN!" Yugo screamed. Alex buried her head in Yugo's chest as she just sobbed.
Yugo hugged his daughter as he stared off where Yuri vanished. "That... I will get Rin back!" Alex looked up. "I want to help save mommy too."
Yugo looked down to her.
Her eyes were red and full of tears but she was looking up at him. "We have to get mommy back daddy." Yugo looked, before nodding "Okay my little dumpling."
Alex nodded hugging him.
Yugo looked over, 'Rin... I promise me, and Alex will get you back...'
bopdog111: Okay folks this seems a good place to stop. Too bad Yuri had to go capture Rin.
Ulrich362: I was all for ending this chapter on a happy note but nope, we have to torture a poor little girl by having her new mother be taken right in front of her by someone who has the same face as her daddy. Though depending on how you look at things, the next chapter just might be even worse.
bopdog111: Yeah we will have to see Terri's view next chapter though hopefully it can't be that worse unless you count the invasion.
Ulrich362: The invasion, oh the invasion is going to be something. Though if its any consolation at all part of the next chapter will be heartwarming... before everything is ruined.
bopdog111: At the very least she'll either have Shay, her father's Xyz self, or someone special to her to fight, and look for Lulu.
Ulrich362: Someone special... oh why did you remind me of that? She'll be completely heartbroken.
bopdog111: It's her love interest.
Ulrich362: Not who I meant Bopdog.
bopdog111: Well either way we will find out. Be sure to review!
Ulrich362: See you in the next chapter.
