Chapter 10: Reconciliation and An Unexpected Meeting
"…Finish this Dark Blade, use your last Dragon Blades!" Luke yelled, as his monster rushed forward, with the will of ending this duel once and for all, and so he did, tearing apart XYZ-Dragon Cannon, as the monstrous machine fell over Crusher, reducing his life points to 0.
"Damn it…We lost…" Kari muttered, still on her knees, as a tear fell from her chin to the ground.
"Hey, it isn't that bad," Angel spoke up, right in front of Kari. "Now, c'mon and stand up!" She said, and extended a hand, which was grabbed by the other girl.
"Sooooo…Who owes me a deck and four star chips?" Roy cheered while dancing as he had never done before.
"Hey, don't take advantage ofr their loss, Roy," Luke scolded him as he descended from the arena.
"It's alright, after all, we were wrong in stealing your stuff," Crusher admitted as he also descended from the arena.
"Now what did you say?" Luke's eyes widened with surprise.
"He said that we were wrong in stealing your stuff!" Kari said, approaching his brother.
"Well said, sis," Her brother nodded with a smile.
Crusher then handed over Roy's deck, and tossed in the air the four star chips.
"Heeey, watch it!" Roy exclaimed while doing his best in grabbing the star chips in the air.
"Well, you deserve it for making fun of those two, you know!" Angel laughed.
"So, what now bro?" Kari asked with an innocent face.
"I sincerely don't know…I don't believe we'll both reach the finals having lost two stars each and having two days left…" Crusher sighed running a hand through his hair.
"No problem, keep'em!" Luke grinned.
"WHAT!" Roy exploded all of a sudden. "Luke, you do realize that this is your opportunity to win four stars, and have eight in total?"
"Yup!"
"Hey, Luke, keep them, we'll manage to do something later," Crusher said extending a hand, which had four star chips.
"Now, since when did we say this was a duel for star chips? This was only for Roy's stuff!" Luke grinned.
"You…"Crusher then smiled.
"Luke's right, keep them, and who knows, maybe we'll meet another time!" Angel agreed.
"I don't think so," Kari suddenly commented.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Luke asked.
"We will meet again, you want it or not!" Kari them smirked.
"Hehe, really? Well, that will mean I'll have to win against you both again!" Luke smiled.
"That wouldn't happen even in your dreams!" Crusher affirmed.
"Hmph, then we'll have to do a rematch right now!" Luke frowned.
"Ho ho ho, I think you guys had too much action for one night, as it is almost dawn you know! So no more duels until the morning, ok?" Angel pulled from the ear of her two friends, who were galvanized to agree.
"Well, what a 'nana' you have there, kids!" Kari smiled mischievously.
"Oh, shut up you…!" Roy was about continue, when Crusher positioned himself right in front of his sister.
"You were saying…?" He said colder than what a refrigerator could do.
"Umm…Hehe, nope, not a thing!" Roy replied to the human wall, and it was then when everyone laughed.
"Luke." Crusher said.
"What do you want now…" Luke spoke up from a sleeping bag nearby.
"DON'T SLACK OFF YOU IDIOT!" Crusher. Crushed. Luke.
"Ok, ok, what do you want!" Luke stood up, with lumps all over his face.
"We have to express our thanks to you man, even if not by star chips."
"Hey, I thought we had resolved that problem!" Luke crossed his arms, eyes frowned.
"It doesn't matter if you accept it or not, we'll just give you these, what you do with them after you receive them, whether keeping them or throwing them, it won't concern me;" The big brother said, and handed over to Luke a pair of two cards.
"Hey, these two are…" Luke then stopped, as if words would spoil his contemplation.
"And I hope you do keep them!" Kari smiled.
"Hey, where are your manners, Luke?" Angel patted Luke on the back.
"Oh yeah…Umm, thank you…" Luke muttered.
"I didn't hear you!" Kari replied, grinning.
"Argh, it should be Crusher the one who I should be thanking, not you!"
"Oh, is that so? Then you will have to thank me for this!" She said, and then embraced Luke with her arms, tightly placing her head right besides Luke's ear.
"W-what are you doing?" Luke blushed madly, removing himself from the girl's grasp.
"Wooo! I see steam coming from Luke's ears!" Roy grinned, fanning his head with his hand.
"He's right; you should have seen your face!" Kari laughed, pointing Luke with a humiliating finger.
"I'll get you for this…!" Luke shouted, cooling down at the same time, as everyone laughed, and as the sun rose, illuminating the clouds and the bright blue sky.
"Beep…Beep…Beep…Be—Hullo, Blake family?" A female voice spoke up from the telephone's line.
"Yes, Mrs. Blake peaking, who is it?" Another adult voice said through the line, with a sleepy tone.
"Oh, Margaret, it's me, apologies for calling this early in the morning but…" The first voice replied.
"Sally! How are the kids doing?" Margaret interrupted; this time in a much warmer and woken up tone, as if she was speaking with a childhood friend.
"Yes, about that…In fact, I was going to ask you about that," Sally started.
"What do you mean? Luke told me he was going to your house for a while…But now that you tell it, yes, it HAS been a while since he left…I guess, he coming right now and you were going to repot it to me, right?" She said.
"Umm…no. I was going to tell you the same thing, Margaret…" Sally said.
"B-but Luke IS there, isn't he?" Margaret's tone passed to a more desperate voice.
"What I tried to say since the beginning, Margaret, is that my Roy told me he was going to your house to play with Luke, and I've been waiting till late in the night for him!" Sally exclaimed, but what she heard through the phone was what seemed to be a swear, and then a hard PUM.
"I'm sorry, the phone slipped through my fingers…" Margaret apologized. "That little runt, where could he have now gone to…"
"Well, my Roy is a very good friend with your son, and would accompany him everywhere Luke would go…And last time you talked to me you said you were having some problems with him…"
"You don't possibly mean my dear Luke escaped, didn't you?" Margaret said with a disgusted expression.
"Well, it's just a supposition…" Sally muttered.
"The 'problems' we were having were that he insisted to go to an island for three days, you hear me? And he wanted for me to pay him the entry, and the---Oh dear…"
"What? What has gotten in your mind?"
"No, he wouldn't do it…"
"He wouldn't do WHAT!" Sally yelled to the phone.
"Two days ago, he told me he wanted to go to an island, as it was a very important tournament, and this was the first time they were doing this…" Margaret explained.
"Tournament? Of what?" Sally inquired.
"Of a card game…Now, which was its name? I think it was something like 'Fuel Donsters'…"
"Fuel what?"
"I don't know, I wasn't very interested in the idea of my son spending money on stuff one year later he will throw to the dustbin, to start with!"
"Hey, I think Harry could know something about this…"
"Harry? The father of that Angel girl, who usually hangs out with our kids…?" Margaret wondered.
"Yes, that man. I'll phone him and explain him what has happened; meanwhile you try to find out more about this island, location, and from which port they went to it."
"Roger that, best of lucks, Sally, and I hope your son is okay," Margaret said.
"Same for you, Margaret, until then, good-bye," Sally replied.
"Later," Margaret said, and cut off the phone.
-Luke, I hope you're alright, and I damn well hope you don't do anything stupid while I'm not covering your back…- Luke's mother wished, while meanwhile…
"YEAH BABY! I didn't sleep at all and I feel like a new man!" Luke yelled out loud to the blue sky, once they had waved goodbyes to Crusher and Kari, who walked away in any direction in particular.
"Now wat just a second, you! You promised you would sleep until the morning!" Angel scolded.
"RIGHT! And guess what, the sun came up, and that means its morning, yay!" Roy replied, as he joined Luke in an 'Angel was defeated' dance.
"Oh Lord…I'm glad their mothers couldn't see this…" Angel sighed, and she then noticed how both Luke and Roy rushed off towards the usual arena spot, where the early duelists would be waiting for challenges.
"Hey, wait for me!" Angel yelled, trying to catch up.
