"Are you ready?" Stella asked.

"Yes," the girls said. "Let's go kick some Dark Signer ass". Stella opened a portal. When they stepped through they arrived in a hallway.

"Are you sure this is the place?" Layla asked.

"Absolutely," Tecna said. "This is where Bloom's cell phone signal is coming from".

"Greetings," a voice said. "Are you looking for someone?"

The girls all turned around to see a young lady dressed as a maid. Her eyes made her seem so distant as if her mind was in another place.

"Yes," Flora said. "We are looking for a group of people. They are likely to be cloaked figures. One is about yea tall, red hair, spiked tiara, sparkling black outfit. Can you tell us where they are?"

"Yes, if you go down this hallway for about five kilometers you should find who you are looking for".

"Thanks," Musa said. "Let's go". The girls ran down the hallway as fast as they could. They eventually ran into a person.

"Hello," they said.

"Modena," Layla said.

The cloaked person revealed themselves. "Yes," Modena said. "I am Modena, dragon tamer of the Dark Signers. If you want to move forward you must beat me in a duel". She strapped a duel disk on.

"Girls," Layla said. "You continue forward. I will deal with her. I have a grudge to pick with her". She turned towards Modena. "All right, you want a fight? You got one". She strapped a duel disk to her wrist.

"Silly mother, you abandoned me and now you expect to beat me. Looks like defeating Jack worked. I got you steamed up to duel me and loose," Modena said as she drew five cards. "I'm so confident I will win I will even let you go first". Purple flames engulfed them forming the shape of her symbol outside. The others moved forward as Modena just watched.

"I have no idea what you mean by mother and me abandoning you but I can tell you this. I would never do such a thing and to prove it to you I will start by playing Keeper Blizzd of the Ice Barrier. Now I activate the card Crest of the Ice Barrier. This lets me add Safeguard Force of the Ice Barrier from my deck to my hand. I activate Designator of a Different Dimension in which allows me to call Future Fusion and if it is in your hand you have to send it to remove it from play".

"Screw you," Modena said. She took a card from her hand and placed it in her pocket. "You will pay for that".

"We will see finally I activate Designator of Darkness. Now you have to add Blue-Eyes to your hand. Finally I place two cards facedown".

"My draw," she said. "I summon Lord of Dragon - Dragon's Ruler".

"I activate Mind Crush. Now you have to send Blue-Eyes to the grave".

"Fine, I activate Dragon Calling Flute. This allows me to summon God Dragon Ragnerök and Material Dragon. Now go Lord of Dragon attack that bird". Layla's monster became shattered.

"When Keeper is destroyed I get to draw a card".

"That won't save you. Go God Dragon attack her".

"Not so fast I activate Holy Barrier- Mirror Force".

"Ergh, fine go, you are just delay the inedible".

"Ha yeah right," Layla laughed. "I draw and activate Treasure Cards from Heaven. This allows us both to draw until we have six cards in our hand". She looked at her cards and thought "Wow time for some fun. Now I activate Three-Sided Formation of the Ice Barrier. Choose a card". She showed Modena three cards.

"I choose Samurai," Modena said.

"By sending Samurai I get to summon my Safeguard in defense. Now I get to summon another in attack. Now Safeguard attack". Modena's life points dropped to thirty-eight hundred.. "Do you believe me now? I would never abandon someone".

"Do you think a little bit of damage will convince me? You abandoned me so you will pay". Modena's head began to hurt. Visions appeared of a white couple fighting for a baby. "No I don't believe you

Fine then, I end with a facedown".

"I draw and activate Raise Dead to bring back Material Dragon then summon White of Legend. Finally I activate the field spell Mountain. This increases my dragons' attack and defense by two hundred".

"I activate my face down; Cry of the Living Dead. This lets me bring back Samurai in which now prevents any monster with sixteen hundred or more from attacking".

"Just go then mother".

"I am not your mother and I didn't abandon you. I draw and let's see. Piff what do you think?"

"Do da," Piff said. She points to a card.

"Hm, how could this work? I guess I should just do it. I activate Crest of the Ice Barrier which lets me add Divine Spirit of the Ice Barrier. Should I wait?" Piff nodded. "I end with a facedown".

"Bad choice listening to a baby you just gave yourself certain death. I sacrifice my two dragons to summon my Earthbound God Dranus corpus". A heart like thing went into the sky and began to get filled with the spirits of the citizens of New Domino city. When it was full a light beam went through it and a giant creature that looked like Modena's sign appeared. "This card gets to attack you directly, it isn't destroyed by battle and is unaffected by your- spell and trap cards. Fortunately for you it isn't affected by my field spell since it is a fiend.

"Yeah but it has twenty-nine hundred attack. I think you don't need to give it any more attack"

"Guess not. I enjoy watching you squirm but I'm not done I activate Dragon's Mirror which allows me to remove from play Lord of Dragons and God Dragon Ragnerök to special summon Dragon Devil - King Dragoon. Your monsters can't select any dragon type now for a spell trap or monster effect. You can't win mother. I finish with a facedown as well". Modena's head began to hurt. The visions appeared again. "Just go," she ordered.

"Fine and to start I summon Defying Troops of the Ice Barrier in attack mode. Next I tune my Samurai with my Safeguard to Syncro summon my ultimate beast. I am the fairy of Morphix and I summon my Dragon of the Ice Barrier, Gungnir. Next I tune my other Safeguard with my Defying Troops of the Ice Barrier to Syncro summon Dewloren, Tiger King of the Ice Barrier. I activate Early Burial. By paying eight hundred life points I can return Safeguard of the Ice Barrier and then I can activate Dewloren's effect. I return Safeguard and Early Burial to my hand to increase his attack by one thousand. I then reactivate Early Burial to summon Samurai of the Ice Barrier".

Modena fell down laughing. "Mother, you summoned all that. All you can kill is my King Dragoon. You can't touch me with my Earthbound God on the field".

"I'm not done yet and I'm not your mother. I activate…" Layla stopped when everything around them changed. They were now in a house watching a white couple fight for a crying baby.

"No," the woman said. "I won't let you kill Modena".

"Give me her. I don't want a daughter. I am going get rid of this pesky little thing". The woman yanked the baby out of the man's hands and ran she ran all the way outside and transformed into a fairy. She flew all the way across town to a girl.

"I remember this day," Layla said. "I was given a baby to take somewhere. The woman just told me to take her to some random place. I did exactly that". The vision faded.

"Wait," Modena said. "You didn't abandon me. You did what my mother requested and took me to my current parent's home to protect me. Please forgive me Layla. Just hurry up and end this".

"Oh no, you don't," a new Modena said. Her voice was deeper and her eyes were different. The real one struggled against it.

"Please," she begged. "End this".

"I activate Gungnir's effect. I discard two cards to destroy Mountain and your face down.

"No," the evil Modena said. The field became normal.

"When your field spell is destroyed so is your Earthbound God". Dranus Corpus shattered to pieces. Now Gungnir, attack Dragoon". Modena's life points dropped to thirty seven hundred. "Time to end this. Dewloren, Samurai attack". Modena's life dropped to zero and Layla rushed to her side.

"Layla you can defeat the evil inside your friend. I know you can". Modena turned to dust and the wind blew her away.
