"Dad, this isn't real." S. Akiza said shaking. "This is just a nightmare."

"Akiza I know it's upsetting, but we won and now you need to seal the control unit." Toby said. "It's what they would want."

"You don't get it, Misty was a dark signer." S. Akiza said. "She wasn't herself, but I just saw my father die in front of me."

"Alright, I get it." Toby said. "I'm right here Akiza."

"It's your fault you know, no it's Yusei's." S. Akiza said angrily. "If I never got involved with the others my father would still be alive."

Suddenly S. Akiza's mark began to glow and Toby vanished.

"I see, so that's what you had in mind." Kalin said. "I have to admit it just might work."

"It will Kalin, it has too." Rex said.

"Well looks like Grieger is ready to go, so I'll head over to the control unit." Kalin said with a smirk.

"I agree, after all your old friend is waiting for you." Rex said calmly.

"I was wondering when you'd show up Crow." Grieger said. "I guess you know what's about to happen."

"Yeah I know, a shadow duel." S. Crow said. "Let's go Grieger."

"Alright, that's fine I'll let you have the first turn." Grieger said calmly.

"Let's duel." Grieger and S. Crow said simultaneously.

S. Crow life points 4000 speed counters 0 Grieger life points 4000 speed counters 0: "Alright, I start with two cards facedown and next I play Blackwing – Bora the Spear in attack mode." S. Crow said. "That ends my move."

S. Crow life points 4000 speed counters 1 Grieger life points 4000 speed counters 1: "Not bad Crow, but it's my move now." Grieger said. "I summon Trap Reactor Y-FI in attack mode, and next I set three cards facedown, that ends my move."

"Toby, what's going on?" S. Akiza asked nervously. "I can control them, I can control my powers."

"Are you certain, or perhaps it was another lie told by Yusei Fudo." said a voice into S. Akiza's mind.

"No, I know that I can because I saved my dad." S. Akiza said.

"No, that was the other Akiza." the voice said. "You never had to control them and so you weren't able to stop yourself from erasing that boy."

"That's not…" S. Akiza started to say. "How can I control them? I don't want to hurt people."

"It's simple, leave the Satellite." the voice said. "You just need to see your mother, that will solve everything."

"You're right, that would help." S. Akiza said. "That's what started everything, so it's where it can end."

"Exactly, I'm only trying to help you Akiza." the voice said kindly.

S. Crow life points 4000 speed counters 2 Grieger life points 4000 speed counters 2: "My turn again, so I'll start by summoning my Blackwing – Vayu the Emblem of Honor, and next I'll bring out Blackwing – Gale the Whirlwind to join my two other Blackwings." S. Crow said.

"Impressive, but I play a trap card, Safety Range, this can only be played when I control a Reactor monster, it let's me summon Reactor monster's to the field so we have the same number of monsters, so I'll bring out Summon Reactor SK, and Spell Reactor RE." Grieger said.

"I wouldn't expect anything less from you Grieger, but I still have this, the trap card Delta Crow Anti Reverse, and with three Blackwings I can play this from my hand." S. Crow said.

"Looks like you forgot about my monster's special ability Crow, Trap Reactor Y-FI now you're trap is destroyed and you lose 800 life points." Grieger said.

"Maybe, but your two facedown cards are still going to be destroyed." S. Crow said.

"That's fine, you destroyed my Fake Explosion and Dark Explosion traps." Grieger said.

"Alright, now then I tune Gale with Bora in order to synchro summon Blackwing Armor Master." S. Crow said.

"Not bad, but you only can attack with one monster." Grieger said calmly. "It won't help you when I bring out my Earthbound Shadow."

"That's where you're wrong Grieger, I attack Spell Reactor RE with Blackwing Armor Master, and Trap Reactor Y-FI with Vayu the Emblem of Honor." S. Crow said.

"I should have guessed you would try that, but the duel is far from over." Grieger said.

"We'll see Grieger, I end my turn." S. Crow said calmly.

S. Crow life points 4000 speed counters 3 Grieger life points 2700 speed counters 3: "Your good Crow, but not good enough." Grieger said. "I can still play my Earthbound Shadow."

"What are you talking about?" S. Crow asked. "You only have one monster on the field and Earthbound Shadow's require two tributes."

"Normally that's true, but if I sacrifice my level five Summon Reactor SK that you kindly left for me, I can summon my new Earthbound Shadow." Grieger said. "So why not, I sacrifice Summon Reactor in order to play Earthbound Shadow Sutōmuriakutā."

"What the, that thing is enormous." S. Crow said nervously.

"That's not his only trick I can negate your Armor Master's invulnerability." Grieger said. "Now attack."

"Oh man, now what am I going to do?" S. Crow asked noticing a few feathers on his arm. "What the, where did those come from?"

"I should explain, your life points are linked to your life. The more you lose the more you'll live up to your name." Grieger said.

"Are you serious?" S. Crow asked. "That's beyond cheating."

"Don't worry, you'll still be able to finish the duel as long as you have life points, although if you lose too many points well let's just say I hope Jack's good with kids." Grieger said.

"Roman, I expected you would come and meet with me." Rex said calmly. "I take it you've come to a decision?"

"Yes, we both know that whatever happens will be the result of destiny, and so I'm going to take the side that I'm destined too." Roman said while activating his duel disc. "Let's duel Rex."

"Very well, may the best man win." Rex said calmly.

(S. Akiza managed to win, but is starting to doubt the others, and S. Crow is engaged in a shadow duel with Grieger. Next chapter the duel between S. Crow and Grieger will continue. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
