I STARTED WATCHING ZEXAL AND ACTUALLY LIKE IT. I DECIDED TO INCLUDE ZEXAL CHARACTERS IN THIS ONE AND I KNOW A LOT OF FANS OF THE FIRST THREE TEND TO JUDGE ZEXAL AND HATE ON IT A LOT WHEN THEY'VE NEVER EVEN WATCHED IT OR THEY'VE ONLY SEEN A FEW EPISODES. PLEASE, NO BASHING.
Little did Yugi know that Joey ran back to his house, in tears, for he was so traumatized by Kaiba's newfound love for Allister that he didn't know if he could handle it. He was so heartbroken and even though he tried so hard to get over it, he just didn't know if it was possible.
"Seto…" sobbed Joey to himself as he sat on his bed with his hands in his face, trying so desperately to force the tears back into his eyes. "I still can't get over you. Ah! I was always your puppy, but now I can't be. Seto!"
MEANWHILE, BACK AT YUGI'S AND ATEM'S PALACE…
"For you, my love," smiled Kaiba as he kissed Allister on the cheek before gently pushing aside his beautiful red hair for a perfect view of his eyes, those sparkling eyes…
"I'd go to the bottom of the ocean just to find you, my love…" confessed Allister as he threw his arms around Kaiba.
"You can come back to my mansion later tonight and we'll have some fun," said Kaiba.
"Sounds delightful," smiled Allister as Kaiba winked.
By the dessert table, Yugi stood simply smiling as he stared at the huge crowd of all his friends, enjoying the festivities. He was curious because he invited some new friends that had not yet shown up, but they should be arriving any moment.
Suddenly, the great front doors of iron burst open and from them came a ton of glitter and sparkly streamers of a multitude of colors, which shot into the entrance hall. Walking through the front doors were a young man dressed in white slacks, a t-shirt, and a red vest whom had black hair with pink bangs, and the tall man he was hand-in-hand with. He had long, violet hair that was very jagged on the edges and he wore a suit that matched the color of his hair. It was Yuma Tsukumo and his husband Shark.
Behind the two of them were a few others, including a woman with dark green hair and her wife, whom had violet hair and blue bangs; a man with blonde hair and green bangs, dressed in a white trench coat, with his husband, whom had long, white hair; a very beautiful man with long blonde hair, dressed in a golden and violet trench coat, and his husband whom had short and silver hair, and whom wore a silver suit; a very sly-looking man with bright and spiky orange hair whom wore a black suit; a woman with pink hair whom was donning a white pant suit; a very tall and muscular man with a green Mohawk, wearing black dress pants with a grey shirt and overalls, and his husband whom had tan skin and black hair that nearly covered his eyes, whom was dressed in a red suit; and a woman with grayish hair whom was wearing a white dress, and her wife whom had red and orange hair and whom was donning a pink skirt and a tank top.
Yugi smiled vigorously as he took in the many new faces entering the palace and he put names to as many of them as he could. It was Yuma Tsukumo and Shark, Tori Meadows and Rio Kastle, Kite Tenjo and Quinton Arklite, Mizar and Dumon, Vector, Cari, Girog and Alito, and Kat and Anna Kaboom.
"Where's the party at?" shouted Yuma as he and Shark rushed to the dance floor.
Yugi ran to them and greeted them with glee, demonstrating his joy to have them there. Yuma's friend, a very cute and small puppy-like duel spirit with a large head and ears, and named Baby Tiragon, smiled at Yugi before running off to go play with Kuriboh.
"It's good to have you here, Yuma," said Yugi as Yuma and Shark danced.
"Glad to be here! I'm feelin' the flow!" laughed Yuma as Shark spun him around and caught him.
MEANWHILE…
Outside and at least a mile away from Yugi's and Atem's palace, Joey Wheeler walked under the light of the newly-risen moon, trying to hide his glistening tears from himself. He dried his eyes in his sleeve, doing his best to shove away any thoughts of Kaiba that came into his mind.
"Greedy rich boy… Who needs 'im? Ah, who'm I kiddin'?!"
Joey fell to his knees, remembering all the times they had sex with one another. He wanted so desperately to taste the passion brought to him by his Seto, but now, he knew that never again would such a thing happen and he was miserable.
"Wheeler, get up, you joke," came a familiar voice from the sidelines.
"Who's there?" asked Joey.
"Me," came the voice.
Joey made sure that all his tears had been wiped away as he glanced in the direction of the voice. To his great astonishment was someone he would never have expected - Bandit Keith. Dressed in his jeans, black leather vest and signature sunglasses he stood, extending his hand to Joey. The only thing he was missing was his American-themed bandana.
"Wait, I thought you hated me?" asked Joey.
"I used to, but I've grown up a lot. When I was banished to the Shadow Realm all those decades ago, it straightened me out. I got freed when Yugi and Atem defeated Zorc and Bakura and I've been in Heaven ever since."
"So, what're you saying?"
"I'm saying that I wanna give you a chance, Wheeler. I hear you're havin' problems with Kaiba. Well, to Hell with him! I hear the King of Games is having a great party at his palace tonight. You know what I'm talkin' about. Whataya say we go?"
Joey paused to temporarily contemplate the nature of this encounter. Bandit Keith, a man who hated him in life, seems to have had a serious change of heart and is now interested in dating him? Shocking as it may seem, it's the truth.
"Well, all right," agreed Joey as he took Keith's hand and the two of them began walking back to Yugi's palace with Keith placing his large, muscular arm over Joey's shoulders the entire time.
Within a fifteen minutes, they were at the front doors of the palace and Bandit Keith smiled at his date, urging him to go inside. Joey, trusting him, did so and they entered the room to find everyone still dancing and having a great night. Also, some new guests arrived including Yuya Sakaki and his group of friends.
Seeing Joey with Bandit Keith was a shock to many in the room and Yugi couldn't believe it. He immediately ran over to his best friend to ask what was going on and Joey, whom seemed happy, confessed the truth.
"Well, Keith here convinced me to not give up on myself and so he offered to escort me back here, Yug."
"Maybe the Shadow Realm did him some good," thought Yugi to himself.
Suddenly, everyone's attention turned to the grand staircase. The Magician of Black Chaos was standing at the top and he looked absolutely salacious. Per his magic, the lights in the room went out and from his hand shot balls of multi-colored light throughout the room and seemed to hover in place as many other smaller blasts of light raced at a constant speed all over the room creating a rave-like environment. The Magician of Black Chaos jumped atop his scepter and rode it like a broom down to the main dance floor and began dancing in a manner so risqué and so otherworldly at the same time that everyone watched in excitement and began dancing themselves. It was as if the ball had suddenly turned into a rave scene.
"C'mon, Joey, let's get sexy," said Bandit Keith a she took his new boyfriend by the hand and the two of them danced salaciously.
At the snack table, Watapon was smiling while swaying back and forth to the music. Not so far away, Allister was sipping wine and his beloved Kaiba was standing next to him with his arm wrapped around him. When Kaiba saw Joey with Bandit Keith, he merely smirked and looked away, ceasing to care for his former love, whom he used and abused and threw out like he was nothing.
"Come, love. Let's not pay any attention to Wheeler," smiled Kaiba as he took his boyfriend by the arm and the two of them walked away.
Meanwhile, Yugi and Atem were making out by the grand staircase without getting too vulgar and Tristan was standing as close to Duke as he could get without being blatantly obvious that he was spying on him.
"I've gotta find out what he's doing," thought Tristan to himself as he stared at his husband's butt.
Duke was socializing with Pegasus and was trying his best not to notice his super-clingy husband."
"Yeah, I created Dungeon Dice Monsters and it was a huge success, you know that," confessed Duke as he stood with wine in one hand and his other hand on his hip.
"Oh, Duke boy, yes, I am so proud that I helped you to make that game possible," exclaimed Pegasus.
Tristan was creeping up closer and closer to his husband, trying his best to not seem obvious, but he failed by tripping over his own two feet and crashing into Pegasus, making Duke enraged.
"Oh, my, what's just happened?" shrieked Pegasus.
"Ugh, sorry about that," said Tristan, whom was only sorry because he got caught.
"Tristan boy?" asked Pegasus before he glanced to Duke, red with embarrassment.
"I have no idea who this I, sir," said Duke abruptly as he looked away from his husband. He could not believe that he seriously married that man.
"Duke, I'm sorry. I was just coming to bring you more wine and I tripped…"
"Ah huh, save it, Tristan," said Duke as he helped up Pegasus.
"But Duke!"
"That's it. You've embarrassed me in front of my friends for the last time. I am done with you, so you and Thunder Kid both can take your cheap asses out of my mansion tonight and go stay out on the streets because this marriage is over."
"Duke," sobbed Tristan, his eyes starting to water.
"I don't wanna hear it, Tristan. You're way too clingy for me. I'll find someone new. End of story…"
Trsitan's eyes started to stream with tears as he ran out of the palace and into the night. He probably ran home to start packing his bags and to alert Thunder Kid of the bad news.
"Are you really divorcing him?" asked Pegasus.
"Oh yeah. He's embarrassed me one time to many."
"Well than," began Pegasus. "What were we talking about earlier before he ruined the conversation?"
"Oh, Dungeon Dice Monsters…"
Over at the grand staircase, Yugi was conversing with Jack Atlas and Zane Truesdale, as all three of them were sipping wine.
"Well, this ball has been the biggest thing thrown since Pegasus threw that ball after the end of Battle City V5," said Jack.
"I hoped it would be," smiled Yugi.
"Who's Wheeler's new man?" asked Zane as he looked over at Bandit Keith.
"Well," began Yugi. "In life, he was kind of a jerk to us, but I guess he's grown up. I'm just glad Joey's away from Kaiba. He was totally abusive."
"Yeah, I could tell," replied Zane.
Close to the front doors, Anzu was making amiable conversation with Tori Meadows as they watched Yuma and Shark boogie on the dance floor. Tori reminded her of herself in so many ways.
"You're like m, but with green hair!" exclaimed Anzu as the two of them sipped wine.
"Awe, well I was kinda like Yuma's cheerleader like you were Yugi's," blushed Tori as Anzu laughed.
"Yeah, we were cheerleaders," smiled Anzu. "I never was that great at dueling, hahaha."
"I can't duel well either," laughed Tori, but my wife can. "Rio is amazing."
"My wife was American champion, so I guess we're alike in that sense too. We can't duel, but our wives sure can," laughed Anzu.
"Yeah," agreed Tori.
Everyone seemed to be having a great time and the night was still young. Not a single person at the ball was sad, not even Duke, whom had just announced that he was going to divorce his super clingy husband. Yugi stood watching everyone have a great time and he was satisfied.
