Prompt 9: Fantasy
" Sora…. Sora… Sora wake up!" Sora lifted his eyelids and saw a tall man. He had a green bird hair and amber eyes. "Oh great….. What do you want now Shun?" Sora scowled. Even after the war ended, the Xyz and Fusion user still held a grudge against each other. THis time, Shun didn't insult or scowl back at him. Instead, he laughed. "Okay….. Ummmm, what's with you?" Sora said. "I'm sorry, but I'm not Shun" the person said. 'Huh? Well come to think of it… his outfit is different' Sora thought. The person did have the facial features of Shun, but the outfit was different. The man wore a beige vest, a long black shirt, cameo cargo pants, and black and red sneakers. On his upper right arm sleeve, there was a red Raid Raptor logo. "Wait! Are you….. Raid Raptor- Vanishing Lanius?" Sora said. The man nodded. "Yup that's me!" he said. Sora scoffed, "You're kidding. I know you'r-" Someone tapped Sora on the shoulder. Sora turned around, and saw Des Toy Scissor Bear waving at him. "... AHHH! This is a dream. This is a dream. This is a dream" Sora said.
"What's with him? Has he never been in the Spirit World?"
Sora turned around again and saw Magician of Chronomancy, who was holding a spell book, and Magician of Astromancy. "Chrono! Change me back! Now!" Vanishing Lanius yelled at Magician of Chronomancy. "Okay… Okay…. calm down. Geez, you are so rebellious on trying new things" Chronomancy said, flipping through his spell book. Once he got to the page, Chronomancy started chanting, and Vanishing Lanius turned back to normal, a machine bird. Sora stared at the Magician of Astromancy. "Hmm….. What?" Astromancy asked Sora. Sora asked Astromancy, "Spirit World? What are you talking about?" Magician of Chronomancy snapped his fingers, and instantly, the book disappeared. Chronomancy walked over to Saora and said, "Well, if you want answers, you should talk to the dragons." 'Dragons…. does he mean?' "Can you take me to them?" Sora asked. "No problem. Raid Raptor- Vanishing Lanius, can you take him to the Dragons' Castle?" Astromancy asked. "No problem! Climb aboard Sora!" Lanius said. Sora got up on the machine bird, and immediately, the bird took off. Magician of Astromancy turned to Magician of Chronomancy and asked him, "How long will he be like this?" The Magician of Chronomancy shrugged and answered, "Probably for another hour or so."
At the Dragons' Castle
"We're here!" Vanishing Lanius said landing. Sora got off the bird and said, "Thanks! You know, You're a lot nicer than Shun!" The bird shrugged and responded, "I get that a few times. He's actually not that bad if you're his friend. Well, see ya!" The bird left the castle, leaving Sora at the front door. Sora pushed open the door, and in front of him was Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon. "Hi Dark Rebellion. How are you" Sora asked, waving at it. The dragon growled and said, "What dragged the cat in?" 'Wow! It sound a lot like Yuto.' Sora thought.
"Hey don't be rude! Sora is a friend!"
Sora looked behind Dark Rebellion Dragon, and saw Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon. 'Figures. Yuya's always nice to people' Sora thought. "Come on in. I believe Ancient Fairy Dragon wanted to talk to you" Odd-Eyes said, letting Sora in the castle. While walking down the aisle, Sora spotted Clear Wing Synchron and YFD [Yuri's Fusion Dragon] looking at him. 'Oookkkaayyyy. This is officially the most weirdest dream I've ever h-' Sora's though has been interrupted by Odd-Eyes saying, "Okay, we're here!" The dragon opened the door, and Sora before Sora walked in, he asked, "aren't you going to come in as well?" The dragon shook his head and answered, "Ancient Fairy Dragon wants to talk to you personally." Sora understood, so he walked to the center of the room. After Odd-Eyes closed the door, Sora looked around. The room had looked just like the Action Field Card, Crystal Corridors.
"Welcome Sora Shiun'in" A sonorous voice echoed throughout the room. Sora looked around until he finally looked up. There, he saw a sea green dragon with pink frills and a yellow helmet and armor. The wings were pink , petal-shaped, and they also glimmered with the crystal. "You're so… pretty." Sora covered his mouth, but it was too late, Ancient Fairy Dragon had heard what he said. "Thank you, Sora. I really appreciate it" The dragon said. "So this place…. the Spirit World….. is it real?" Sora asked, dumbfounded by the beauty of the room. The dragon nodded and answered, "Here, this is where all the monsters relax. This is kind of like our own homeland." She turned to a crystal wall, and roared at it. The crystal wall receded, and a balcony was revealed. Sora walked to the edge of the balcony and gasped with surprise. Below him, under the thin clouds, was the city that Sora spawned. Getting a bird's eye view of the city was better than being there! "Wow! I could look at this all day!" Sora exclaimed. knowing that Ancient Fairy Dragon may have something to say to him, he left the balcony, and went in front of her. "Is there a reason why you summoned me here, Ancient Fairy Dragon?" Sora asked her. The sea green dragon giggled and then responded, "I didn't summon you here….. you did." Sora tilted his head in confusion. "...Eh?!" Sora was about to lose hope until Ancient Fairy Dragon told Sora, "It's okay. Many people have the ability to summon themselves to the Spirit World. Your friends Yuri, Yugo, Yuto, and Yugo have this ability." Sora calmed down and looked at her. "How? It seems impossible" he told her. the sea dragon seemed to be smiling and explained to Sora, "Those who open up their minds, they can enter the Spirit World." 'Huh… cool!'
"Oh dear. It's seems like it's time" Ancient Fairy Dragon said.
"What are you talking about?" Sora asked.
"There's not enough time to explain, but can you do me a favor?" Ancient Fairy Dragon said, who was starting to disappear. "Of course" Sora replied. "Remember this place because this might be the last time you may see this place again" she said. "Of course. I'll try to open my mind again! Bye!" Sora yelled, waving his hand good-bye. A flash of light came enveloped Sora, and suddenly, he disappeared.
"You can come out now" Ancient Fairy Dragon said. Clear Wing Synchro Dragon opened the door and YFD, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon came through the door.
Clear Wing Synchro Dragon: Do you think he'll ever come back?
YFD: I highly doubt that.
Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon: Let's hope not. I don't trust him
Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon: Aw, come on. That what you said to Yuri as well, but sometimes, you enjoy his company as well.
Ancient Fairy Dragon: *chuckles* Well, I guess Laughing gas opens up some people's mind
Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, YFD, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon: Agree!
At the Sakaki's Residence
"Why do I have to carry him?"
"Shun, because you can carry him with ease, and I'm holding the groceries."
"That…. and you lost against Yuto in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors"
"So true, Yugo. Yuya, how long do you think Sora will be asleep?"
"Um…. I think another 15 minutes or so?"
Sora lifted his eyelids and saw Yuri and Yuya talking while Yuya was opening the door. Yuto was holding a brown bag of groceries. Yugo was twirling Shun's car keys[1] on his right index fingers while he was humming, "Burn! By: Bullet Train" The person who was carrying Sora, was-
"Hm. Hey Raid Raptor- Vanishing Lanius, what happened. Why is everything spinning. And why does the air around me smells like cotton candy?" Shun turned his head around and looked at the fusion user, confused. "Umm… I'm Shun… As for the cotton candy smell. You had a cavity and all five of us had to drag you to the dentist. Sora looked at the Sakaki brothers and Shun, and he saw they all had bandages on their faces (Sora resisted for a while). "You were hard to calm down, so we gave you a numbing medicine and laughing gas that smelled like cotton candy" Yuya explained.
"Oh… Okay… I had this dream of this place of the Spirit World. Funny huh? And get this, I talked to Ancient Fairy Dragon Fairy dragon" Sora mumbled. Yuri, Yugo, Yuto, and Yuto looked at each other. Shun rolled his eyes and said, "It's just a dream, okay? It'll be over tomorrow[2]." Sora eyelids fell as he said to them, "I guess…" Before he fell into deep slumber, Sora swore he saw Des Toy Scissor Bear's silhouette.
(A/N): Hey guys and girls, it's Yuudai Shintaku here. I'm sorry for missing a few days of the Arc-V Challenge. I had a state testing on Science and Social Studies. I feel good about them though. Sorry, but….. I'm back [Duke Devlin: And bringing sexy back! Me: Hahahaha… NO!]!
Get your game on guys (and girls) because I'm feelin' the flow. Now that the fun has just started, it's time to rev it up!
Footnotes:
[1]- Shun's 16 years-old, and in my state, that's perfectly legal to drive a car at that age. :/
[2]- Shun knows that the Sakaki Brothers can see Spirits, but Sora… it's a little hard to believe (Sora's not "open- minded" enough)
