Sorry for the Late update It was just that I had work all week this week as well, I'll probably be at work all week next week too but it should calm down after a little while so don't worry. In this Chapter there is a Duel however it will be short due to the fact I didn't have much time to work on it, however next Chapter they will definitely be back in force. Also thankyou FateLover for your review on this Fic and Fate Ground Zero, to answer the Question of who said Honour was burdensome, it was Angeal when he was talking to Zack early in Crisis Core.

"War takes many lives away. Humans never forget their grief, but they also never stop the fighting. Streams of blood and tears are only an ornament for their destructive ritual." Duo Maxwell, Gundam Wing
The Girl in the White uniform snarled in frustration. "Master Sartorius is going to lose all the glory to the 'D'" she whined as she walked towards where Duel Academy should be. "That arrogant 'Duellist' things he is better than Master Sartorius only because it was him who first showed the Master the light" she stated in a rather angered fashion. We will have words with him for talking to Master Sartorius for that. "He's only ever won his games because of the Light" she commented not like the rest of us I am sure of that.
Her name Mago Garu much to her dismay but that was irrelevant. Mago was a member of the Society of light and desperately wanted to please Sartorius, the girl believed that by involving the 'D' this early the man would seek to undermine Sartorius and have himself in place as the head of the Societynot like he didn't desire to be the head of it despite all the work that Master Sartorius had done for the Society, the 'D' may desire to be the one to show the world the Light instead if the rightful individual. Like the other's remaining she was determined that that should never come to pass as Master Satorius was the one who should show the world the Light not some petty thief turned big time Duellist like the 'D'. She knew the Light told everyone everything no secrets could be kept.
Mago had been sent head over heel by the tremors when they starred and had prayed to the Light to save her from the definitely supernatural occurrences that were happening to cause this. In the back of the brainwashed duellists she briefly wondered about whether these tremors would trigger the volcano to activate. This also brought up the Question of why Seto Kaiba built this Academy on a Volcanic Island in the middle of nowhere but these thoughts were pushed from the girls mind as she was tossed to her feet by the latest tremor and looked up to see a gold and a red beam of light coming a from another part of the Island. Mago knew instinctively that this was not a sign fro the Light. Both were filled wit hatred making it sickening for one who who had been enlightened to look at.
She didn't know how but she needed to get away from where whatever caused those two beams was occurring and fast. Stumbling through the undergrowth she found herself at the edges of Duel Academy. Surprisingly she found an unremarkable student and a little girl with no sense of decency in her clothing sitting down there with the little girl sitting on the unremarkable boy's lap. "Well I suppose it's better than nothing" Mago said to herself as she decided to step forwards to enlighten these two to the Light I wonder if master Sartorius would be kind enough to reward her for being the first of his Servant to show others the Light. "I guess I could make do with showing it to these lost little lambs" Mago stated as she walked forwards.
Hakuno Kishinami looked up at the girl who he had met in his dream or a memory. Jack was wearing the uniform that Hakuno had taken to wearing in the Far Side of Moon Cell. Given the fact that it was too large for her made it an awkward fit also making it a very bizarre sight to see for the former NPC to witness as he had no idea how Jack, this Heroic Spirit had got her or given the way the girl spoke, their hands on it. After all the uniform was just plain data nothing more nothing less. Still the Victor of Moon Cell was a tad bit confused with what was going on with the girl or to be more exact the heroic Spirit that was currently hugging him. On a Side note Hakuno was a little confused as to why his ribs were not yet broken but that was a problem for later. "Jack?" he asked questioning the girl who met his eye with her cross between yellow and green eyes. "how did you get here?" the former NPC asked. Now when asking that question it could mean different things which Jack took into consideration before she answered.
'How did you get here?' meant that the person was asking how one had managed to get to a place he they shouldn't been able to normally or just would have been difficult in general. 'how did you get here" was more pertaining to the individual and the fact that where they were, wherever it was they shouldn't be there. Now 'how did you get here' meant that they recognised the person present and that it was impossible for person to be where they were. The last one was one the Former NPC had used when he had spoken to Jack.
Jack while innocent in the a relative use of the term was dominated by pragmatism and rationale thought. So "we swam here Brother" was her answer to the former NPC. Jack's voice sounded as if she were saying thee words 'master' and 'brother' as if they were one in the same, that was disturbing in general with how the girl managed to pull it off. "We sensed your presence and wanted to see you again so we decided to swam our way here" the Heroic Spirit explained affectionately to the one she claimed was her brother.
"Jack" Hakuno began "could you please let me sit up?" the Former NPC asked the Heroic Spirit as he was lying on the ground in not a very composed manner and his uniform would need to be dusted off. That and Hakuno knew he shouldn't be here at the moment.
"Okay Brother" Jack replied as she move to his lap as Hakuno was able to get upright an in a sitting position, not standing but he was making progress. "We thought that you were only a dream but you took us away from that place and away from the mother's that abandoned us when we were just children" Jack explained. Surprising Hakuno though he had already known that was the truth of her existence, why else would she be on the street in Victorian England above all other places. "You said that you would face the world and bear all of its hatred for us if it demanded our demise" Hakuno repeated what the former NPC had said to her in their shared dream. "You even gave use your coat before we woke up" the Heroic Spirit said showing Hakuno his Formal uniform from Moon Cell.
"Well, well" a voice that was distinctively feminine rang out as a Girl in a white uniform and who possessed blonde hair and blue eyes said as she stepped forward. "How about we show you two love birds the Light" she stated activating her duel disk menacingly.
While Hakuno was not intimidated in the least Jack did look at him for confirmation, mainly confirmation to kill the girl in front of them, all Hakuno would have to do was nod and then she would lay into this woman and kill her in less than an instant. So imagine Jack's surprise when Hakuno stood up and activated his own Duel disk. "I are you sure?" he asked his tone devoid of any emotion, the brother that Jack had been looking for vanishing or more like transforming into a figure that was more akin to an Angel of Death at the drop of a hat. Jack though believed that her Brother was doing this for her sake because this woman had threatened her. Though Jack was a Heroic Spirit and a very Famous one she was still touched by her Brother's protectiveness of her.
"Brother" she addressed Hakuno "are you sure that you don't want us to handle it?" she asked tapping the knives on her belt for emphasis. "We could deal with her without causing you any trouble" she stated looking at the woman with a blank expressionless gaze.
"Now worries Jack" Hakuno replied with a warm smile. For a moment returning to the person she had met in her dream "after we're done here I'll show you how to play" he stated "is that alright with you Jack?" former NPC asked the Heroic Spirit patting her head.
Jack took a moment to consider what Hakuno had just said to her, though the Heroic Spirit did that more out of desire for him to continue petting her than to make the decision. Finally she nodded "Okay Brother we trust you and we will wait, however if you are going to lose we will interfered" Jack informed him as Hakuno ruffled the Heroic Spirits hair before she vanished into motes of light taking on her Astral form surprising the member of the Society of Light at this.
"You don't have time to be surprise" Hakuno sated as he put his deck into the Duel disk, I hope you brought your A game with you" the former NPC stated, while he was somewhat still upset about having confront Moon Cell again Hakuno Kishinami was going to channel that frustration he was feeling into something useful, taking down a member of an organisation run by a megalomaniac was definitely a positive usage of that sadness and anger.
"Remember the name Mago Garu, kid" the Duellist stated. "for it is she before you who will show you the light." she declared not known that Hakuno had a perfect Grasp of every language due to Moon Cell and being an NPC along with whatever else Gilgamesh had done when he had made the former NPC this body.
Maximillion Pegasus blinked as he pulled up one of the screens seeing a Hakuno being confronted by one of the members of the Society of Light with a Duel about to begin "Well it seems Kishinami boy has a good way of distracting himself from some problems, though I suspect it is less running away from them and that he is still haunted by some of the things that happened in there" the creator of the Modern Duel Monster System mused. "While I am confident in Kishinami boys duelling skills allow him to claim victory it would be extremely irresponsible of me not to send him some help even if the need is only Superficial" Pegasus reasoned as he contacted two of the Staff Members specifically Professor Sartyr and Professor Stein seeing as they where the two who knew him best.
While Pegasus knew he could have contacted Hakuno's friends to go and back him up the acting Chancillor took said role very seriously as he did not believe that he should send them though Pegasus also suspected that they would end up there anyway, if Jayden was anything like Yugi and Joey that was. Considering Kaiba also noticed this fact meant that Maximillion Pegasus was not imagining things though in truth he never did imagine things, well not all the time or most of the time either. Turning his attention he saw that another vessel was approaching Duel Academy at top speed and would be here soon, but not before dark at least. "This can't be good" Pegasus murmured as he recognised that as the personal cruse ship that belonged to the 'D'. "That cannot be good at all.'
It seems that they would have to evacuate Duel Academy much sooner than they expected that or he would personally have to defeat every one of them and Kaiba would have to come himself. If things were still not settling down the Yugi Moto would be contacted.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 8000
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 8000
"As they say Ladies first" Mago stated as she drew a card "and I'll play Return Zombie in ATK mode" she stated as a hunchbacked Zombie covered in black bandages and who wore a Black suit on top of it appeared on the field.
Return Zombie 4 Stars ATK: 1000 DEF: 1000
Mago then played a Spell Card face up in the Spell and Trap ccard zone "Now I'll play my Quick Rush Spell Card" she stated as an enlarged version of her card appeared on the field.
Hakuno realised that the member of the Society of Light was about to begin to explain what her card does. The Former NPC guessed that she wouldn't really have a clue that he knew what the spell card did and was just explaining it to him so he can't accuse her of cheating. That or she just loved hearing the sound of her own voice, Chazz did and perhaps so did Atticus though why the others did it were beyond the former NPC so he just stayed quiet and listened to the little monologue.
"You see with my quick Rush Spell Card I can either draw another Card this round" Mago explained but paused "or I can have my Return Zombie attack your life points directly even though it is the first turn" she said triumphantly as the zombie leapt forward and swatted Hakuno with its hands causing the former NPC to lose a thousand of his life points.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 8000
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"Hows that" Mago stated triumphantly looking full of confidence "perhaps you should just surrender now mister Villager and I will even Tell Master Sartorius your name, otherwise you'll just be another of the nameless followers who no one even recognises because they all look the same" she gloated. "You haven't even gone through your first turn and already down a thousand life points" she informed him of the obvious "I guess your duelling is as mediocre as your face is" Mago stated as she suddenly froze when she felt this unbelievable murderous intent to kill her coming from the direction of where Hakuno was. Though it seemed that the boy was calm as far as she could see, just giving her a blank stare which was really unnerving for the girl.
"Oh" Hakuno began as he noticed the change in her "that must be Jack" the Former NPC stated in an emotionless voice "perhaps you should not have insulted the big brother she admires so much in front of her" he suggested. "By the way you have yet to end your turn" Hakuno informed her, which she did "Jack stop that please" he requested and the killing intent died down. "Well Hakuno said drawing his first card "I'll play my Moon Cell summoning circle" Hakuno informed her as he then searched his deck for a Monster card and played it to the field "I guess you should have the chance to stretch your legs, though you prefer to lounge about" he said as a red haired woman dressed in red attire appeared before him wielding two primitive pistols. She also had an insufferable smirk across her face which was only marred by a single long scar. Her Red Attire befitted that of a Sailor or an admiral in the navy though she wore it loosely not hesitating to show off her feminine qualities, the physical ones that was in regards to her chest.
Moon Cell Rider 5 Stars ATK: 2000 DEF: 2300
Hakuno saw that he could summon another Monster via Normal Summon but chose not to just yet as he drew another card thanks to Rider's effect. Mago noticed this and tried to call him out for it "Hey what do you thing you're doing?" she asked slightly irritated.
"It's rider's serial effect" Hakuno replied offering no more as he saw the card that he wanted "Now I'll summoned Moon Cell Caster (Nursery Rhyme) field." Hakuno informed her as a girl with whitish to grey hair and purple eyes wearing a black frilly dress appeared. She also wore a ridiculous hat. But she seemed to be in a rather cheerful mood as she gave a little swirl as she entered and a giggle.
Moon Cell Caster (Nursery Rhyme) 3 Stars ATK: 900 DEF: 900
Mago's eyes widened as she saw Caster give another twirls as her ATK and DEF rose by another five hundred points.
Moon Cell Caster (Nursery Rhyme) 3 Stars ATK: 1400 DEF: 1400
"Hold up a minute are you going to tell me that is one of this cards effects too?" she asked only receiving a nod in reply. "Can you at least explain it to me" she shouted at him "you go and summon a Mahou Shojou above all things just to mock me" Mago accused. "I hate Magical Girls especially the Dark Magical Girl" he stated glaring daggers into Hakuno her eyes filled with venom.
Hakuno's blank expression didn't change "You mean Dark Magician Girl" he corrected her. He had known that her name meant 'magical girl' Mago meaning 'magician' and Garu meaning 'girl' still who would name their daughter that it used two different languages? "Are we going to duel r are you going to be immature and throw a fit?" he asked deadpanning at her behaviour a little bit tired and a little bit confused if the girl really was brainwashed by a megalomaniac.
"Fine get on with the Duel it's not like it will save you, in fact I'm quite sure once, I am done you will be begging me to show you the light" Mago snarled aggressively at Hakuno who sighed at her altogether childish antics. It was not something he would expect.
"Caster" he addressed Alice "Please who her why a what happens when someone hates magical girls like yourself" he requested Hakuno eally didn't know why the Duellist hated Magical Girls but hating on a girl like Alice was far from acceptable given what she went through. Caster for her part nodded and gave a twirl as a few love hearts and bunny faces were fired into the hunchbacked Zombie causing it to shatter dealing damage to Mago's life points.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 7600
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"Yeah what was that supposed to do?" she challenged you couldn't even make my health points drop lower than yours" she scoffed at him before the Duelist remembered something important. Mainly the second monster on Hakuno's side of the field.
"It seems you remembered about Rider" Hakuno commented. "I wonder are you blinded by the Light that you see so much that common sense is no longer available to you" Hakuno said this in the same flat tone he had been using since thee Duel began. While coming from most people it would have been an insult Hakuno was generally interested as it seemed that the Society of Light followers weren't seeming to think things through when they challenged him or anyone else for that matter. Then again it could just be him.
"Why you, I aught to-" Mago began but was cut off As rider shot her directly causing her to fall to one knee as she lost two thousand of her life points. Mago thought she imagine it but she could have sworn seeing Rider blow the smoke out from he pistols.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 5600
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"What is going on?" Mago asked she was a member of the Society of Light. She shouldn't be losing by the first round. "This no named unremarkable villager A is beating me" she hissed.
"You know I can here you" Hakuno replied and for the first time Mago stared into his eyes and saw something there that frightened her. Those eyes were not that of a student no they were the glassy eyes of killer. They were empty lacking in remorse or even pity.
This chilled her to the bone and enraged the brainwashed Duellist. "Hurry up and end your turn then I'll show you why I should be Master Sartorius's favourite" she hissed at him. Hakuno sighed and played a two face downs leaving him with two cards in his hand.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 5600
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"Finally" Mago stated as she dramatically drew her card "And I play my Vorse Raider in ATK mode" she declared as a wicked looking monster appeared with a nasty sneer on its face.
Vorse Raider 4 Stars ATK: 1900 DEF:1200
"Now Vorse Raider take out that eyesore that is Moon Cell Caster" Mago ordered. "What do you think of that little Mahou Shojou now?" Mago sneered wickedly "not much chance of survival against a monster with equal its ATK points huh?" she questioned. "What no comment" Mago said as she cocked her head to the side. "Aww is the little boy with no distinguishing features scared that his little make believe friend is going to disappear?" she asked mockingly. "Well if it makes you feel the better the Shadow Realm is only the worst place for Duel Monster's" Mago Taunted. It was when her Monster stopped Attacking and lost 500 of its ATK and DEF did she realise that Hakuno had activated his trap card. A strange sigil or pattern had on the Card that was coloured blood red. Could be seen As Mago's Vorse Raider stopped attacking several of the lines in the pattern faded out.
Vorse Raider 4 Stars ATK: 1400 DEF: 700
"Caster is quite safe" Hakuno replied in a matter of fact manner. "Still it is you turn, as you have not yet ended it only the main phase." he reminded Mago who tried to control herself. Somehow the member of the Society of Light managed to hold it together. However when she attempted to play a spell card she found that she was unable to. "Another one of the Magical Girl you so despise effects. Only I can play Trap and Spell Cards while she is on the field" the former NPC informed Mago who was now seething at him. If looks could kill then he would be dead several times over, a good thing then that Hakuno was able to Shrug of even Julius Harwey's glare for some time now with little to no effort in general. So her stare was not even noticeable to Hakuno in that sense.
"There is no way a human being with any sense of decency would make a card like that" Mago declared. "Whoever made these cards must think the whole world or themselves as I can't imagine someone as unmemorable as you ever having the imagination to pull something as crazy as this off let alone get away with it." given the fact that it was Gilgamesh not Hakuno who made his deck bar the Wrought Iron Hero and the Alter Ego's her accusations of the King of Heroes were for a matter of fact surprisingly accurate.
Still since Hakuno assumed that Gil was otherwise occupied this girl named Mago Garu's imminent and excruciatingly painful demise would be postponed for at least a little while, until Gil got here and killed her that was. Might as well get this over and done with before the large ham appeared and blew things way out of proportion along with overreacting and unleashing the Gate of Babylon again. "Do I go?" Hakuno asked receiving a nod and a scowl from the girl as she grudgingly ended her turn having achieved nothing.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 5600
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"Say Jayden" Syrus Truesdale began asking his best friend Jayden Yuki "Do you really know where you are taking us?" the short light blue haired Slifer Red finished as he and the rest of the gang played follow the leader with, well the leader of the group so to say.
"Private" Tyranno Hassleberry, Jayden be following his instincts in this case" the dino-soldier explained. It was then that Hassleberry paused "though I am not sure that it will lead us to Hakuno and more like lead us to where lunch is" he admitted."I'm famished."
"This is no time to be thinking about your stomach dweeb" Chazz reprimanded him. "We need to find Hakuno and fast, before he goes and does something stupid because he's racked with survivors guilt or something stupid like that. the Black Jacketed Slifer explained. "This is no time for slacking slackers so get tough or go home" he informed them before the black jacketed Slifer continued his walk in silence, though the odd incoherent mutterings could be heard from Chazz for every ten meters he walked with Jayden.
"Definitely not in a good mood that one" Hassleberry commented quietly to himself and Syrus as they quietened down mainly due to not desiring to getting on 'The Chazz's' bad side, not that Hassleberry couldn't handle anything Chazz could throw or shout at him.
"You tell me" Syrus replied sadly though unlike Hassleberry he was more quiet about it due to being picked on by Chazz when ever his fellow Slifer was in a foul mood, usually about seventy three percent of the time. Which was not healthy for Syrus as a human. "It's a shame Alexis and Bastion are not with us" the light blue haired Slifer sighed sadly but straightened up with a jolt as he felt a very nervous chill run down his spine with Chazz growling at him for reminding him that they were not with Alexis. Chazz was scary.
"Oh come on you two," Jayden chided them "there is no reason to be in such a foul mood Chazz" he informed said person who scowled at the Slifer but offered no comment opting to continue in silence as the other two Slifers also opted to follow Jayden in silence.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 5600
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
Hakuno watched as his trap cards effect took hold and the girl named Mago's Vorse Raider lost even more of its ATK and DEF point causing the member of the society of light to grind her teeth in frustration at this development due to the former NPC's plays earlier.
Vorse Raider 4 Stars ATK: 900 DEF: 200
Hakuno knew at this moment the immature little hated him more than anything else. Surprisingly he found that he was quite detached from the whole affair and was not effected by her death glares that could kill a regular person many times over. Drawing two cards thanks to Rider's effect Hakuno looked at his hand before deciding to first play a spell card and then summon a third monster to the field. Knowing that the girl would accuse him of cheating for not explaining who he was summoning Hakuno gave a tired sigh before he narrated his actions "First I'll equip on Cell Rider with God Force (Bow and Arrow)" the Former NPC informed Mago as an intricate looking bow and even more intricate arrow appeared in Rider's hand replacing her Elizabethan era pistols.
Moon Cell Rider 5 Stars ATK: 3300 DEF: 2600
Hakuno closed his eyes for a brief moment, mainly waiting for Mago to interrupt him and acuse the former NPC of cheating. When none of the expected behaviour came Hakuno continued with his explanation. "Next I'll summon Moon Cell Caster (Author) to the field in DEF mode" he stated as what looked to be a young boy around the age of ten dressed in formal clothing that sought to conceal most of his skin and he also had blue. Hakuno knew the reason why the Author wore these clothes and quietly pitied the great author for being corroded by his own stories. As the Servant called it it was the 'Curses of Readers' people presuming what he was like due to his stories. Merman scales on his legs, due to the little mermaid story he wrote, no child would ever be able to enjoy that book if they knew what it did to the Heroic Spirit. Then there were the scars and burns on his arms from the little match girl, his throat itself was sliced making it painful for the Heroic Spirit to even talk something that was hell.
Moon Cell Caster (Author) 1 Star ATK: 500 DEF: 500
"What is a weak ass monster like that going to do, act as a shield?" Mago asked as she noticed that Hakuno had summoned Hans Christian Anderson in DEF mode giving the way what she thought was a child was kneeling on the card base with his arms crossed. Hakuno didn't reply as Mago gave a squeak of surprise and saw that some of her cards had been sent from the top of her deck to Hakuno who was viewing them before they entered her deck once more. "Don't tell me" Mago began "there is a card that can do that?"
"Yes" Hakuno replied "You're looking at it" he informed the member of the society of light as she was staring at Moon Cell Caster (Author) who's face was impassive, though Mago thought he was just a regular duel monster so she expected the Heroic Spirit to possess only one fixed expression. Still Mago did blink when she thought she saw the other Caster shoot the one in DEF mode a glare and seeing Hakuno shake his head at the cards. Fortunately Mago played this off as her seeing things so there was not problem.
Hakuno foundhimself sighing again as the former NPC realised that he would also have to narrate Caster's other effect as to appease the member of the Society of Light so they wouldn't attract more attention. As it was he wasn't supposed to be here, though the victor of the Moon Cell Grail War did have a valid reason, mainly post traumatic stress or something similar to it. "Thanks to Caster's other effect I can increase the ATK and Def of my monsters by 500" he explained wanting to get it over and done with.
"You're joking" Mago replied in disbelief "there is no way that such a card would be legal" she stated in denial of what was happening before her very eyes, then again people usually didn't believe thing they didn't desire to so her reaction was not really a surprise.
Hakuno chose not to reply and decided that the rising attack points of Rider and Caster (Nursery Rhyme) would do the talking for him. The former NPC knew he needed some time to rest and while this girl was here he could definitely not be getting it at all.
Moon Cell Caster (Nursery Rhyme) 3 Stars ATK: 1900 DEF: 1900
Moon Cell Rider 5 Stars ATK: 3800 DEF: 3100
"Rider, Caster" Hakuno addressed both Heroic Spirits. "Why don't you show this member of this Society of Light what those from Moon Cell are capable off?" he requested politely with the two Heroic Spirits on the field nodding in agreement. "First up Rider" the former NPC stated "send her flying will you?" he asked as Rider bulled back the oversized and overly intricate bow and fire the arrow into Mago's Vorse Raider destroying it. The girl herself was knocked onto her rear from the impact of the attack.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 2700
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
Hakuno watched as Caster's ATK and DEF points rose by 500 due to her effect making her not quite high enough but almost just a few hundred short, not that it mattered. The Former NPC had something in mind with dealing for that as well.
Moon Cell Caster (Nursery Rhyme) 3 Stars ATK: 2400 DEF: 2400
"Caster it's your turn" Hakuno informed Alice as she stood up and sent love hearts and the heads of cute little teddy bears that sped into Mago at high speed almost reducing her life points to zero.
Mago Garu's Life Points: 300
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
"Nice trick, I'll admit that" the member of the Society of light stated "But I'm not done yet, given that I have still 300 of my life points yet I can call upon Master Sartorius's power to grant me victory." she said the words as if it was Gospel truth.
Hakuno's eyes narrowed as he flipped his face down revealing his Fierce Tiger Forcibly Climbs a Mountain spell card "for some reason I have found that I never get tired of using this card" he commented as Alice reduced Mago's life points to zero, making the girl fall to her knees. Li Shuwen, Assassin would be undoubtedly pleased to here this, still it would mean that the Heroic Spirit may offer to Teach Hakuno bajiquan seeing how the Heroic Spirit was a true Masterof the art Hakuno felt that he may not be able to refuse Assassin if he offered. It would be rather offensive
Mago Garu's Life Points: 000
Hakuno Kishinami's Life Points: 7000
Sartorius's eyes narrowed "own of my followers has been defeated" the soothsayer noted as he felt the connection being severed. "No" Sartorius said firmly as he reached hold of Mago's destiny and took control of it in hopes of retaining a follower. While Sartorius would get the effect he desired he would not have it long enough for the man to feel pleased with this revelation.
A Girl with Blonde hair wearing blue attire shuddered as she felt a most heinous deed occur right after she had felt the power of Saver being used. "Someone powerful or rather evil and cruel must oppose Saver" she reasoned as she continued walking in the direction of the energy that she had felt.
Hakuno's eyes narrowed in scrutiny as he saw the girl named Mago give a whimper of pain as she cried out, Hakuno was quite sure that peoples hair did not turn white in that sort of way. "Master Sartorius has made me stronger" the girl who had been one known as Mago Garu (much to her disdain) said with and fanatical laugh. Hakuno stood not in the least bit disturbed as he knew there were worse things. "With this I am Master's Satrorius's favourite" Mago stated with a manic kind of glee in her voice.
It was then that a whistling sound could be heard and she collapsed a neat hole running through the centre of her head. "Then why don't you prepare hell for him, I'm sure he'll appreciate it" a third and voice called out, it sounder far from impressed.
Turning around Hakuno saw the Green Man with favoured his crossbow in hand as he walked up to the former NPC with Kazuradrop "I have to admit that girl was on the crazy side" Archer commented to him. Still I get the feeling that you didn't really want me to kill her."
"There is nothing I can do to change that now" Hakuno said with a sigh. "Still to think that he would do that to his followers just to maintain his hold on them means that Sartorius is either rather desperate or that insane" the Former NPC noted as he heard footsteps.
Archer and Kazuradrop didn't need to be told as they both entered Astral Form as Aster Phoenix walked up to Hakuno, looking at the deceased member of the Society of Light and then at Hakuno, "Well I guess since you were from this Grail War thing, death really doesn't effect you that much" Aster said trying to be casual it seemed that he had at least seen Archer kill the girl. "You know, it may seem a bit weird coming from me but you don't have to handle this yourself" Aster stated "your friends are there for you." The former NPC realised that the professional Duelist was not talking about the whole business with Sartorius and the Society of Light as much as he was talking about the entire Grail War that they had talked about previously with Pegasus and Kaiba. "Come on" Aster said putting a hand on Hakuno's shoulder "Jayden, Chazz, Syrus and Hassleberry are coming this way" he informed the Victor of the Moon Cell Grail War "You don't want them to see something like this, death may be too hard for them to handle" he explained.
Hakuno took a deep breathe and nodded as he let Aster lead him away from where Mago Garu's corpse now lay. Aster himself had seen his own father's dead body so he was no stranger to it, but it still didn't make it easy on the professional duellist as it took everything the aster had to hold it together. In truth he had only arrive when Archer and Hakuno were conversing so he was grateful for that, seeing it take place may be a little hard for the professional Duellist to handle.
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada eyes narrowed as he sensed that Power of Saver a second time. "it seems whatever Evil lurks here has attracted Saver's attention. Shirou Kotmine now looked at his left hand and clenched it, "if only that power could be mine."
Pegasus narrowed his eyes as he watched the one who he suspected heavily of being Robin Hood shoot the girl named Mago Garu "This is not good at all" Pegasus commented, while the girls death was tragic due to the fact that she had died because she was being controlled and enslaved to the wills of a megalomaniac, it was also how accepting of the situation Hakuno was. "I guess everyone needs time to handle things, especially when it is something that you don't want to be reminded of" Still he had informed the two professors to wait because the Duel had ended and he did not want them to see the body, Pegasus would get some of his personal employee's mainly his bodyguards to do that. After Directing the Professors to where Jayden and the others were all of them would be rendezvousing soon. It was now that Pegasus pulled Kaiba up as the founder of Duel Academy had also seen the footage of the Duel but more importantly its aftermath. "I take it you have a few things to say" Pegasus stated.
"I will admit the events at the end of the Duel were a little if not wholly disturbing" Kaiba replied keeping his voice level and keeping his composure in check. Given the fact that he had just witnessed what was a killing in cold blood the head of Kaiba Corp was doing rather well given the circumstances as lesser men would have lost their edge. What was also disturbing for him was the fact that some transformation had occurred with the girl identified as Professional Duelist Mago Garu meaning that Sartorius had done something given the fact that right before her demise she was ranting about how the man had made her stronger. This did ring a cord with Seto Kaiba and Maximillion Pegasus as they both had experience in these sort of circumstances, knowing that she had something akin to her individuality remove making her truly a brainless puppet or worse making whatever Sartorius had done to her irreversible, though the two did believe that it was not given also due to their experience in this area.
However what disturbed them was with how casually Hakuno accepted the girls death as if it was inevitable, given the information they had received from the one named Archer it was highly likely that this was a coping mechanism that Hakuno Kishinami had made during his time in the Grail War. Not that this fact made it any easier for either of the two. "I believe that we did open more scars than we intended to" Pegasus admitted after seeing the Duel referencing the talk they had with Hakuno earlier "It seems that Kishinami boy's past is troubling him more than he would like to admit" Pegasus noted in a rather sad tone "Though that girl who should be in the last years of elementary school being what was called a Heroic Spirit is somewhat disturbing as is the way she referred to Kishinami boy as her brother, that is also slightly disturbing" the founder of the modern duel monster system mused.
"Open old Scars" Kaiba replied "Those scars were as fresh as the salad I had with my lunch this afternoon, talk about scars they were still bandaged and we opened them up for all the world to see" It seemed Seto was more concious of the effects his actions had on others than people gave him credit for. Then again with Kaiba everyone would not be wrong in assuming the worst of him given the man's demeanour, except Mokuba that is, Kaiba was the best brother anyone could ask for if you asked Mokuba. Though Kaiba was more kind to his younger brother than anyone else, mainly being Seto's only motivation that would allow him to work together with Yugi Moto time and time again.
"Well we should restrain ourselves to keeping everyone safe for now" Pegasus stated nodding in agreement to What Kaiba had said but changing the topic. "We have two forces on Duel Academy one of them is composed of Heroic Spirits including one who may be Achilles, the withdrawn to their landing point and is waiting for something the other is the Society of Light and it seems that with the 'D' en route to Duel Academy they will start to be going on the offensive." Pegasus explained.
"Just keep everything together until I get there" Kaiba replied. "If Sartorius is not like every other villain and has not been defeated by kids that is" the owner of Kaiba Corp added referencing every adversary with diabolical plans that was defeated by Yugi Moto.
"While we could play on that card I seem to see that you are rather adamant in not allowing it to occur, though no one else will believe us if we tell them" Pegasus sighed. "Still come as fast as you can, we may just need your strength." Kaiba didn't respond as he cut the link no doubt going to his Blue Eyes White Dragon themes Jet, taste in design aside that thing was fast so Seto would be here soon. Though how would they evacuate Duel Academy was a question that had yet yo be answered. More importantly how would they deal with Chancellor Shepard if the man were to appear in the middle of the crisis, most probably starting that Genex Tournament he had mentioned when Pegasus had last seen him.
It was now above all times that Pegasus received a call from Industrial Illusions "he idd what?" Pegasus asked shocked at what he had just been told. "thank you for telling me, I'll prepare right away." he stated ending the call. "Franz what are you playing at?" Pegasus asked himself noting that his employee had stolen their copy of a very special card that was mainly there for research purposes. "The last thing we need is a rouge Duelist armed with a chained god on the loose" he commented.
Iskander looked at Jayden before looking out to the sea surrounding Duel Academy, entering an Astral like form that was the existence of a Duel Spirit was handy but the King of Conquerors still would prefer to walk around, however Gilgamesh had stated that the terms of him staying here prohibited use of such an action unless they were facing enemy servants. "I wonder if goldy has sensed it, this presence is similar to that of my adopted father" Iskander noted and he was not referencing Zeus in this case.
The 'D' looked across from the table he sat at at the person who agreed to come with him, the man himself was in possession of a card that could prevent him from worshipping darklight as the 'D' referred to it as but when the current number one Duelist had mentioned Pegasus's name the man had become very interested in cooperating. "Show me the power of you Egyption God" the 'D' whispered as Duel Academy came in sight and he gave a wicked smile as the Light of Destruction flowed through him.
Gilgamesh looked at Hakuno who understood immediately what was going one before he said "Hakuno" the King of Heroes addressed him "We will be required soon" he stated "A filthy God is coming and I intend to chain it with your assistance." the King of Heroes explained. In Gilgamesh's eye he was granting Hakuno a great honour meaning that he saw the former NPC in the same regard that he treated his first friend Enkidu. "We will show him why the Age of the God's has ended" Gilgamesh stated with enough Venom that Aster took a Step back in fear due to the intense hatred Gilgamesh radiated for a brief second.
"Hey King of Heroes" Iskander called out to them as Jayden and the other reunited with Hakuno "I guess you sensed it as well" he stated. Gilgamesh nodded and the King of Conquerors spoke five words "Amon Ra the God of the Sun" Iskander smiled "I wonder if he is like our worlds one?" Iskander asked with Gilgamesh offering no comment due to his stance on any form of higher power.
So yeah I wanted to show that not everyone who was beaten in a Duel was Saved as this did happen with Lorenzo in Cannon however Hakuno's reaction would have been less of Shock and more of telling a Servant to put them down, fortunately Robin Hood beat him to it as Kazura Drop had gone to get him. As with the OC I made and killed off rather quickly I wanted to show that this is still Nasuverse influenced so happy endings won't always occur even if this is in the Yugiohverse.
Jack is still there but is smart enough to remain in Astral Form as she is still a Servant and does not have any cards made for her so she can't interact like a Duel Spirit just yet. I have been having requests to include Frankenstein but I am not sure how to, please if you are asking it come up with some basic Idea as to how it will happen. Still thanks for the reviews in that sense I really appreciate them.
And Finally I did do a combination with Hans Christian Anderson and Nursery Rhyme working together on the field in a Duel and it worked rather fine. This was a test run for when they face Shakespeare later. Though the Apocrypha arc will mostly likely occur in-between the Light Arc and the Yubel Arc hoepfully or right at the end of the Light Arc as they are staying low for the moment.
