The Reign of the Morphtronic King
Chapter 7: The Fate of Two Worlds
The four Signers of the Crimson Dragon looked up at the massive Machine King. The Machine King's booming, electronic laughter echoed throughout the room.
"Signers, you shall all fall to the might of the machines!" he said, "Although Leo could not defeat all of you, he did manage to destroy Red Dragon Archfiend and Ancient Fairy Dragon. That makes him more than worthy to be my human equivalent, the supreme master of Machine Deck Duelists. And now, I shall destroy the three remaining dragons, and cause the Crimson Dragon to fade from existence! Arise, my soldiers, and rally forth to me!"
With many simultaneous flashes, more machine type monsters appeared all around Machine King.
"Now, give me your power!"
The machines all bowed down to their ruler, and white spheres of energy floated out of them. The energy balls all flew into the Machine King. Now he was glowing with golden light.
"Hahahahahah! Behold the ultimate power! You cannot stop me!"
"That's where you're wrong!" Crow shouted.
"That's right!" Akiza shouted, "You're outnumbered three to one!"
"Not for long!" the Machine King said, a he was suddenly holding two huge jars in each hand. "Activate! Dragon Capture Jars!"
Black-Winged Dragon and Black Rose Dragon both roared out in despair as they were both drawn into the two jars.
"Oh no! Stardust is the only one left!" Akiza shouted.
"That's right, and he's no match for me!" Machine King roared, and he laughed maniacally.
Yusei looked over at Stardust Dragon, and then at Machine King, who was glowing from all the power he gained from his loyal machine servants.
"Is this...the end...?" Yusei thought.
Suddenly, there was the sound of cocky laughter.
Everyone turned to see Leo, still lying on the floor.
"Heh, heh, heh, heh. It's over guys! I told you that you should have surrendered!" he said with a smirk, "I would have just locked you up in the dungeon, but Machine King will destroy you!"
Jack slowly got up from where he had collapsed and said, "Shut your mouth, you little traitor!" but then he gasped in pain a fell back down.
Leo laughed and said, "Take it easy, Jack! Well, I guess this is goodbye guys! Goodbye-," but suddenly, he gasped and clutched the back of his neck. He breathed fast and heavily and said, "No... Yusei...Don't give up!"
"Leo?" Yusei asked.
Leo shook his head and said, "Ugh? What brought that on?" but then, he clutched his neck again and said, "Yusei, you've got to stop this! Luna's trapped in the dungeon, I can't bear to think of how miserable she is, you've gotta help her for me!"
Leo shook his head again and said, "Urgh! No! I don't care about Luna! I don't need her! I"m king now!"
"That's not true! I can't let all this bad stuff happen! Yusei, you gotta defeat Machine King!"
"Gah! What's wrong with me?"
"Yusei! Maybe the Crimson Dragon can help you win!"
"No! I need to win!"
"Wrong! I've destroyed so much! Luna loved the Duel Spirit World, and she wouldn't Earth to be destroyed either!"
"Ahhhh! Machine King! What's going on in my head! Help me!"
"Guys, I'm so sorry! I don't know why I did what I did! Please Yusei, in the name of the Crimson Dragon, WIN!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
"Silence!" Machine King roared, "Leo, I'll resolve your situation after I destroy the Signers!"
Machine King launched his mechanical, jet propelled fists straight at Stardust Dragon. They blazed with energy as they surged towards the lone dragon.
Leo suddenly scratched wildly at his neck and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Luna! I'm sorry!"
Down in the dungeon, Luna's eyes snapped open.
"Leo..." she said softly.
Her mark of the dragon glew brightly, and then it vanished
The marks of the four signers flashed with crimson light, and then they all vanished. Then, the grand and glorious symbol of the Crimson Dragon appeared on Yusei's back. This was followed by a glowing card that appeared on the top of Yusei's deck.
"Well, if it worked for the King of the Netherworld, then it should work for the King of Machines!" Yusei said, and he drew the card. "I summon Stardust Shalom and Majestic Dragon!" he said, and the two monsters appeared. "I now tune them together with my Stardust Dragon in order to Synchro Summon... your destruction, Machine King!"
"No!" Machine King shouted. The monsters fused together in a blinding light. The mechanical fists hit the light, and instantly were destroyed.
"Gah! Impossible!" Machine King shouted.
"Come forth! Majestic Star Dragon!" Yusei shouted. The shinning dragon appeared with a flash. It zoomed upwards and then divided towards Machine King.
"Alright! Now take his special ability so you can gain the power of his machine army!" Yusei said.
All of the energy drained out from Machine King and into Majestic Star Dragon.
"And now, for Luna, for Leo, for Ancient Fairy Dragon, for Red Dragon Archfiend, and for the Duel Spirit World; ATTACK!" Yusei roared.
Majestic Star Dragon was enrobed in crimson fire, which the morphed and formed into the Crimson Dragon, that let out it's eerie roar.
"No! Not the Crimson Dragon! NOOOOO!" Machine King shouted in terror.
The mighty dragon crashed into Machine King, obliterating him in an instant.
Leo's eyes were blazing. "Incredible..." he said, and then he passed out.
The Crimson Dragon flew out of the Satellite and showered New Domino City with crimson dust, repairing all the damage, and erasing all of the citizens' minds. And then, it flew around the Morphtronic Satellite, and they both vanished.
The Satellite reappeared high above the ruined Duel Spirit World. The Crimson Dragon flew over the scorched land, showering it with it's crimson dust. The realm instantly sprung to life. Towns and forests returned to existence in a flash. They were followed by Duel Spirits that returned in a flash. It was as if thousands of duelists had played Monster Reborn at the same time. Morphtronic Machines returned as well, and they quickly flew back up toward their Satellite.
Within the Satellite, Majestic Star Dragon reappeared. He let out a shower of stardust, and then he disappeared. The stardust shower hit the ground, and with a flash, six figures appeared. It was Power Tool Dragon, Ancient Fairy Dragon, Red Dragon Archfiend, Regulus, Sunlight Unicorn, and Kuribon; all of them moaning and slowly struggling to their feet. The dust also freed Black Winged Dragon and Black Rose Dragon from their Dragon Capture Jars.
There was one final flash, and Luna reappeared. She gasped and said, "Oh! You're okay! You're all okay!"
Luna ran over to her Duel Spirit friends. Kuribon flew over to her and nuzzled her on the cheek. However, Luna suddenly gasped when she saw Leo lying on the ground. She ran over to him and began shaking him frantically.
"Leo! Leo! Please wake up! Please wa-," Luna stopped suddenly, and she saw it. It seemed to be some sort of tiny computer chip attached to Leo's neck. Luna grabbed it and pulled it out of Leo's neck.
Leo gave a shout and sat up straight. "Ouch! What was that?"
"Leo!" Luna shouted tearfully, "You're okay!" and she threw her arms around him in a tight hug.
Leo desperately tried to get Luna off him while saying, "What are you talking about? Why shouldn't I be okay? Hey, why are we wearing this armor? Hold on! Where are we?"
Power Tool Dragon stood up and said, "Machine King ordered me to plant that special micro chip onto his neck. Machine King designed it to subconsciously alter his desires and personality so that he would become the king the was spoken of in the prophecy. Now that you have removed it, he should have no memory of the events that have happened. I had no choice but to obey my King. But now that the Machine King is gone, I can now see how wrong I was. I have caused so much evil. I am sincerely sorry."
"Say what?" Leo said groggily, but then his eyes shot wide open, and he said, "WOW! Power Tool Dragon! Hey! Can I have you autograph? You can sign the back of your card! No, wait; that would be having a marked card. That's against the rules, so I wouldn't be able to use the card. Err, oh, I know! You can sign my Duel Disk! How about it?"
Everyone laughed at this, except Leo and, of course, Jack.
"It is time for the Morphtronic Satellite to return to orbit."
"And it is time for you, your friends, and your brother to return home," Ancient Fairy Dragon said to Luna.
Leo looked outraged at the very idea of it. "GO? I just came here!" he said as he tried to get up, but he just fell flat on his back. "OW! Err, actually, I fell kind of beat, actually really beat. Okay fine, let's go home. Man, I'm starving! I could eat a whole pizza right about now!"
Luna giggled a little bit, and then see turned to her Duel Spirit friends. "Goodbye everyone. I am so sorry that I had failed you"
Regulus shook his head and said, "No Luna, it was the hope in your heart that brought forth Majestic Dragon."
He then looked toward the Signers and said, "I am sure I speak for all of us when I say that we are all in your debt"
"Indeed" Ancient Fairy Dragon said.
Luna nodded and said, "Well, goodbye everyone, and I know that as long as I have my deck, you'll always be with me."
Then, with a final flash, the humans were gone.
Ancient Fairy Dragon turned to Power Tool Dragon and held out her hand to him. "Allies?" she asked.
Power Tool Dragon replied, "Friends," and the two dragons shook hands in peace. Once again, peace reigned in the Duel Spirit World.
