Unexpectedly, the group's next location was none other than good old Heartland City.
"I can't fucking take it anymore! There is only so much you can do through a computer screen but I need IT in me!" Meri grumped as she hastily got off the Yuma Express.
"Where are you going now? Weren't we in the middle of a mission?" Kaito twitched.
"Shut up and take this time to fuck with Cris! Besides, I kinda neglected to say this… butthere'sanumberhereinHeartland, toodles!" Meri quickly said as she ran away.
"Why that…!"
"Well why don't you go with Cris?" Ryoga teased.
"I could say the same for you and Yuma." Kaito teased back, causing Ryoga to blush.
"Take that back!"
"Nope. Enjoy boarding the Yuma Express." Kaito grinned as he flew off.
"Kaito-sama, does that mean that you're boarding the Cris-express?" Orbital asked.
"S-SHUT UP ORBITAL!" Kaito yelled.
"Well who knew that orbital can be sassy? I say we go and find this ruin so Mihael, since you're our archeologist, do you know any place where a ruin can be located in Heartland?" Clearflower asked.
"Hmm, maybe not ruins but there's a really important historical location here. It's right… here." Mihael explained as he opened a map to Heartland and pointed at a certain location that Yuma and Astral knew well.
"That's old man Rokujuro's duel lodge!" Yuma shouted in surprise.
"Funny, I never sensed any Barian energy there." Astral said.
"So my bitch actually has a plan. Keep up the good work bitch!" Vector teased at Mihael, earning him a hit in the rib.
"I'm Mihael you vile thing." Mihael growled.
"Boys stop it please. Honestly it's feel like I'm taking care of two sets of twins boys and not one." sighed Clearflower.
"Oh momma burned you two. Need some ointment?" Black Mist teased as Astral sighed.
"Why am I your twin?"
"Cuz you're no fun." Black Mist laughed.
"See what I mean. Yuma since you know the place then lead the way." Clearflower advised.
"No prob Clear!" Yuma chirped as he began leading the way.
"Well I imagine he's got energy in bed." Thomas teased.
"Your dad is nailing an ancient alien!" Ryoga hissed.
"Don't remind me." Thomas groaned.
Meanwhile, on Jyoti's end….
"Well this certainly is relaxing." He sighed, "Yup, no Meri to annoy the crap out of me."
As he walked around, he had a flashback of the day all hell came upon him.
He was taking a shower when he felt something heavy fall on him. To his surprise, it was two girls.
"Man that was a bad trip. I swear they have it out for me on your planet Clear!" Meri groaned as she sat up.
"Sorry they're still pissed at your Ex and… EEP!" Clearflower explained before noticing Jyoti and jumping back with her hands covering her face.
"What… why hello Captain, mind if I board?" Meri seductively said as she approached Jyoti.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU, YOU CREEP?!" Jyoti hollered.
"How dare you call the great Barian Goddess a creep!" Meri shot back.
"Great what? All I see is a tramp!" Jyoti shouted.
"We're sorry if we offended you. We'll wait out in the living room I believe it called for you to get dress." Clearflower apologized as she pulled Meri with her out of the bathroom by her collar.
"LET ME KILL THAT BASTARD! I'LL SKIN HIM ALIVE AND WEAR HIS SKIN AS A BAG!" Meri hollered.
Jyoti sighed at the end of the flashback, "Ever since then, she's had it out for me."
"Jyoti!" Takashi yelled out and waved.
"Oh, hey smarticus." Jyoti waved back.
"I haven't seen you or the others in a while. Is everything fine?" Takashi asked with a blush.
"Yeah, the crazy bitch has been dragging us along to all these ruins. How about you? Still getting A's?" Jyoti asked.
"U-um yeah but truth be told, I can't get grades higher than you, and you've only been to class two days!" Takashi said.
"Yeah well that's what I get for having scientists as parents. Sorry about that." Jyoti sighed.
"Where are your parents? We're having a parent day pretty soon and…"
"They're dead. They were experimenting and after a boom, they didn't wake up anymore." Jyoti explained calmly.
"I-I'm sorry, I…"
"Don't worry about it. I've gotten used to it already." Jyoti said. Before walking off, he waved and said, "By the way, you're the smarter one. Later."
On Meri's end…
Byron had his head flat on the table, moping.
"Cris, do me a favor and kill this old fool."
Cris merely sipped his coffee. "I've said it a hundred times before, she'll be back."
"But it's so painful! How do you do it with Kaito?" Byron whined as Cris stayed silent.
"That's none of your business." Cris scoffed.
"Honey! I'm home!" Meri ran to the kitchen and hugged Byron.
"Meri!" Byron grinned, placing her on the table and kissing her.
"DAD!" Cris yelled before giving up and leaving the kitchen.
"Is something the matter?"
Cris turned and saw Kaito leaning on the living room couch.
"Oh nothing, except that my father is about to… ahem have intercourse with Meri in the kitchen." Cris sighed as he hugged Kaito.
"Let's be the example then and do it where it's supposed to be done; in bed." Kaito said with a smirk.
"Anything to get away from those two." Cris chuckled.
"HEY! DON'T DO IT IN FRONT OF ME YOU HARLOT!" Jinlong shouted from within the card before Meri tossed him along with her skirt.
"Don't have to tell me twice you old fart!" she laughed.
Back with Clear…
Clearflower was singing along and dancing every once in a while to Shakira 'My hips don't lie' as they walked up the stairs.
Mihael couldn't help but blush while Vector outwardly said, "Damn I hope you move that way in bed too."
"You're a pervert!" Mihael yelled.
"Oh come on, you're thinking the same." Vector grinned.
"Please don't be like Meri; keep your dirty intentions to yourself." Astral sighed.
"See, Astral agrees." Mihael said.
"Oh really? What's your take on this Black Mist?" Vector scoffed.
"Eh, it doesn't bother me." Black Mist shrugged.
"Doesn't make it any less crude." Mihael griped.
"At least I've gotten somewhere." Vector grinned as Mihael got mad.
"In a life or death situation!"
"I'd do it under any circumstance you little baby!" Vector spat.
"Boys please behave or I'll…I'll…I'll stop dancing! Yeah that what I'll do!" Clearflower threaten.
"NO!" The two shouted in unison.
"Well that's a start." Gilag laughed.
"I never would have expected it from Mihael." Yuma said.
"It's annoying actually." Ryoga groaned.
"You know ma keeps on saying that if you and eeksnay here did it, you'd be less uptight." Gilag snickered.
"Well if you did it with anyone you'd be less uptight." Yuma said.
"SHUT. UP!" Ryoga blushed.
Upon reaching the top, Yuma ran inside to find Rokujuro and Yamikawa sitting down and talking to an albino little girl wearing a purple and magenta, poofy and short Lolita dress with a magenta ribbon around her neck.
"Oh Yuma, glad you popped in for visit. This little girl here is a hoot!" Rokujuro laughed.
"Hello Yuma-chan I'm Deneb. It' a pleasure to meet you." greeted the little girl.
"Aw she reminds me of Sanagi-chan's kid with me if…" Gilag stopped as he realized that the others were staring at him weird, "I mean never mind."
"Wow, what a fanboy." Black Mist snorted.
"So we were wondering if you knew anything about a legend here in the lodge. Do you know anything about it old man?" Yuma asked.
"Oh Ponta-chan won't be coming out right now not until I play a little bit with Gilag-teme." Deneb chuckled insanely as she interrupted.
Rokujuro and Yamikawa looked at Deneb with worried faces. "Deneb, is everything okay?" Yamikawa asked.
"Shut up you idiot, I've been waiting all this time to 'play' with Gilag-teme and I won't let a baka like you or anyone else stop me as well." Deneb hissed.
"Hey I've never met you before! What do you want with me?!" Gilag shouted.
"Everything! You killed my family and village! Now you will pay!" Deneb growled.
The duel lodge suddenly disappeared and they were now in a burning village being raided by… Gilag?!
"What the..?!" Gilag shouted.
Everywhere blood was being shed and innocent lives were taken by men that appeared to be under Gilag's control.
"What is this?!" Gilag shouted as he shivered upon seeing himself, covered with blood and grinning maniacally.
"See! You caused all this! You murderer! My family's dead because of you!" screamed Deneb as she pointed to a younger version of herself crying facing the sky with tears and blood on her clothes and her family's corpses surrounding her.
"No…" Gilag knelt down in horror.
"I'm going to make you feel all the pain you had caused me now! Oh I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it!" she cackled.
Just as Deneb approached Gilag, a statue jumped in between them and a bright light blinded Deneb.
"GET AWAY NOW PON!" A little boy's voice shouted.
"Oh Ponta-chan I thought those seals would keep you locked up for a bit longer. I guess you wanted to 'play' with me too." Deneb cooed.
"BE QUIET PON! I won't let you hurt Gilag like this!" Ponta yelled from within the statue.
"Who are you?" Gilag asked.
"I'll punch you for that later pon, but we have to beat her first!" Ponta shouted as Gilag got up.
"Oh, two for the price of one! Double the pain! Double the pleasure! Not even Alcor could service me like this!" she giggled.
"What do you know about that creep!" Ryoga hissed.
"Oh, he's a co-worker and occasional fuck buddy nothing more." she waved away.
"That's disgusting! You're just a kid and that bastard is a grown man!" Gilag shouted.
"Oh but I'M the one who welcomed my bed to him. He likes young and pretty things. You should ask Miza-chan." she smirked.
"I won't let you talk about Miza like that!" Gilag growled.
"Oh did I upset you? You know when Alcor is pounding me into the bed he's yelling Miza-chan's name until he cums into me." she purred.
"Enough!" Gilag shouted.
"It's even better when I'm the one riding him and he's tied to the bed. I can use all my toys on him and say such dirty things in his ear. He likes that one best too because he likes to pretend it's Mizael doing all those things to him. God now I'm officially wet! Maybe Alcor will be up for another all-nighter when I get back?" she wondered.
"Damn this kid is creepy!" Vector shuddered.
"Damn now I'm too horny to 'play'! I guess I should go back and have Alcor's dick fix this problem, toodles!" Deneb giggled before disappearing through a portal returning the dojo back to normal.
In the aftermath, Gilag remembered the talking statue and inquired, "Yo, thanks for saving me but who are you?"
The statue jumped on Gilag's toe, causing him to scream. "That's for forgetting me pon!" it shouted.
"Seriously though, who are you?" Yuma asked as the statue rumbled and a little boy in with a Tanuki tail, ears, and whiskers appeared.
"I'm Ponta and was once Gilag's friend until he betrayed me!" Ponta stuck out his tongue at Gilag.
"WHY YOU LITTLE!" Gilag growled.
"The story here goes that a shogun by the name of Gilag ruled here until he was killed by some of his subordinates who turned on him. I never thought we'd ever actually meet the actual shogun like this." Rokujuro awed.
"He's not that great." Ryoga scoffed.
"And his feet smell." Vector snickered.
"Either way, wouldn't that make it so he didn't betray you, rather he let you think that so you could escape being killed as well?" Yamikawa asked.
"Gilag saved me?" Ponta asked with wide eyes.
"I don't know!" Gilag said, causing Ponta to bite his hand.
"Then I still hate you! Here, have this stupid card!" Ponta pouted as he tossed the card at Gilag, causing him to remember everything.
Gilag remembered the Tanuki; he would shape shift into him and they would be successful in battle. He also remembered… his death. But nowhere in those memories could he remember burning down Deneb's village. He wondered if it was just because they were too horrific.
"Think we should go back to the Yuma Express?" Yuma asked.
"Yuma please don't say that so soon after what that girl had told us those things." begged a queasy Clearflower.
"Sorry!" Yuma awkwardly apologized.
