"Zone, this duel is as good as over, I attack Rose Star King with Shadow Lord Dragon." Star said.

"Not yet, I have the other effect of Rose Star Scepter, I can send it to the graveyard to end your battle phase." Zone said.

"Alright Zone, in that case I'll end my move with one card facedown." Star said calmly.

"It's my move." Zone said before the six marks of the Crimson Dragon began to glow. "Wait, what's going on?"

"I guess the Crimson Dragon is giving you a fighting chance, so let's see what you can do." Star said.

"Alright Star, I activate the magic card, Crimson Miracle." Zone said. "This card allows me to remove a monster in my graveyard from play, and in exchange I can summon as many dragon type synchro monsters that I can."

"Wait, you don't have any synchro monsters, the Rose Star deck uses comet summoning not synchro summoning." Star said.

"I know, but there are two I can summon." Zone said. "I call to the field Stardust Dragon, and Black Rose Dragon, and next I activate the second effect of Crimson Miracle."

"Wait, what else does that card do?" Star asked nervously.

"I can add one card to my hand at the cost of 1000 life points." Zone said. "Now I activate the magic card Gathering Roses."

"Hold on, that card can only be played when Rose Star Dragon is on the field." Star said.

"Normally that would be true, but since I have both Stardust Dragon and Black Rose Dragon I can play this card, and it allows me to automatically remove all the monsters on your field from play." Zone said. "I win Star, I attack with both of my dragons."

"This duel isn't over yet, I play the trap card Shadow Lord's Offering, now I can send Shadow Lord Dragon to the graveyard in order to destroy all cards on the field." Star said. "Plus thanks to your own card you can't play Stardust Dragon's ability this turn."

"That's not good, I end my move with one facedown card." Zone said nervously.

Star 1000 Zone 2000: "Everything's set for the end of our duel, I activate the magic card Eternal Battle." Star said. "You remember what this card does."

"I do, I'm the one who gave you that card Star." Zone said calmly. "Now we both summon one monster that originally belonged to us, and then all other monsters we control are removed from play."

"Exactly, so we both know what's about to happen." Star said. "I call to the field, Sephiron, the Ultimate Timelord."

"I knew that was coming, I summon forth Rose Star Dragon." Zone said.

"Now thanks to my card neither monster can be destroyed in battle, but I have the advantage, Sephiron attack Rose Star Dragon." Star said. "Next I'll set this facedown, that ends my move."

"This is bad, Zone's about to lose the duel." Leo said nervously.

"Not true, you wouldn't know this yet, but Star is really in a bad situation to play Eternal Battle." Paradox said. "This duel could still go either way."

"That's true, plus Zone still has that one magic card." Aporia said. "If he manages to play that he'll win the duel."

"Well, he'll definitely have a good chance of winning." Antinomy said. "All we can do at this point is wait and see."

"I know, but this duel is much more important than any of their other matches." Paradox said.

"It's my turn Star, and we both know that there's only one way for me to win this duel, and I just drew it." Zone said. "I play the magic card Rose Star Unleash."

"You're a great duelist brother, and this duel is about to end." Star said with a smile.

"Thanks to Rose Star Unleash I can double the attack points of every Rose Star monster I control, so now Rose Star Dragon is stronger than Sephiron, the Ultimate Timelord." Zone said. "I attack with Rose Star Dragon."

"This was fun, and we should duel again some time, I play the trap card Temporal Flux." Star said. "This card can only be played when I take battle damage, I deal damage equal to the difference in our monsters original attack points, and that's 1000 points."

The moment Star said that a vortex appeared above the two duelists before a golden beam struck Zone.

"Wait, so now what happens?" Luna asked. "The duel ended in a draw."

"Exactly, which means I offer you one final choice, the Crimson Dragon lives and these mortals perish, or you spare these mortals and forfeit the life of the Crimson Dragon." the KotN said.

"Not true, there's a third option." Star said. "Separating the Netherworld from the human or Spirit Worlds."

"What are you talking about?" the KotN asked.

"You didn't win, but you also didn't lose." Star said. "Plus, there's another reason I played Temporal Flux."

The moment she said that, the vortex from before reappeared and slowly began sucking the KotN into it.

"Wait, what do you think you're doing?" the KotN asked.

"I'm not doing anything." Star said. "Remember, during the duel you were influencing my cards, and that means your own energy is responsible for what's about to happen."

As soon as Star said that, the KotN was pulled through the vortex causing it to disappear completely.

"Wait, didn't that card send the KotN to the past?" Leo asked. "That's really bad."

"No, his strength was scattered throughout time." Star said. "He shouldn't be able to effect anything for at least fifty years."

"Well now that the crazy end of the world problems are over, I think we should get together with Sherry and Carly." Paradox said. "There's a lot we all need to talk about."

"He's right, let's head back to the city and call them up." Yusei said. "I don't think Sherry left quite yet."

"Zone, I just wanted to say thanks again, you're an awesome brother." Star said with a smile.

"Thanks, you're a great sister too Star." Zone said before the two of them turned to follow the others back to New Domino City.
