-ooo-
That night in their building, Dawn Knight and Giltia were talking about what was going in the downstairs area while the gang was fast asleep on air matresses that Dawn Knight stored for whenever.
Giltia took a sip of the cup of tea he prepared for him and Dawn Knight and he replied, "Really good tasty tea, bud."
Dawn Knight then repleid, "Thanks, buddy. Its my own special blend that no one knows about, except you of course."
GIltia took another sip of it and he replied, "Those kids are some of the best duelists I know. They beat me and Alchemist in a duel and we're two of the best duelists we know."
Dawn Knight his cup of tea and he replied, "Kristen is going to have a major challenge when she faces the leader in a duel tomorrow. She can do it, but she'll need do the best she can to defeat our leader."
Gilita then replied, "If anyone can beat her, it's her, buddy. Hysteric Fairy is still his second in command, I'm afraid."
Dawn Knight sighed and replied, "I wonder what he sees in that odd angel. She's been complaining about everything she sees to him and I bet he's getting annoyed as well."
"I would been a better one for the job if he didn't get there before I did."
"Don't worry about it much, buddy. Want a pizza? I have a few stored down here."
"Its a supreme with pepperoni?"
"You know it, buddy."
-ooo-
That night on World Island on their island, Talio was talking to Sparks and his army about the attack.
Sparks smiled and replied, "Thanks for all the cards you gave, sir. We needed the help."
Talio nodded and replied, "Anytime, Sparks. You know the plan now, right?"
Sparks nodded and replied, "Of course.. We don't attack La Casita until we know for sure Tatyana is in that so-called meeting in Darrien."
"Good job. You and your fiends rush in and try your best to take down the city. Darrien has his friends and daughter willing to help out with protecting the city, so be as careful as you can and good luck. Don't return until the city is under you control and then I'll come in and throw that asshole and his daughter out of the city for good. We can do it and we take them all down."
Sparks then replied, "We will and it'll be a smooth take down, buddy."
Mefist walked in and he replied, "He and his army ready to go, Talio?"
"They saw they are and I believe them, Mefist. They cand do it and will take them down for good."
Mefist looked at Sparks and replied, "Don't screw this up, dude."
Sparks then replied, "No problem."
He and his army turned around and walked away and then Talio looked at the fiendish general and replied, "Your new deck ready to go?"
Mefist nodded and replied, "It may be a lot different then my old one, but it's really powerful and ready to be used at anytime."
"Good to here."
Talio then replied, "Soon, he and Tatyana will be out of here and they'll never be a problem for us anymore, my frriend. "Thiis all for the best."
Mefist nodded and replied, "Thats fine with us, Talio. We have to do this."
-ooo-
That night in the masion, Tatyana was talking to her kids about everything in her main bedroom.
Tatyana then replied, "I'm hoping that he accepts this treaty offer and we can both can cooperate and go on with our lives.."
Trevor then replied, "After the stunts we've pulled, I wonder if Darrien can even trust us again."
Trisha looked at him and replied, "We can't give up on that, bro. We need to do this to honor dad. Its for the best."
Tatyana then replied, "He's right, Trevor. We have to do this."
Tamara then replied, "I'm just really hoping he doesn't reject us for sending troop after troop after troop to take out his city and got any card we want."
"Again, we can't let that stop us. We need to do this for us and only us, Tam. Its for the best."
She looked at the watch on her arm and replied, "Bed time, dears."
They all nodded as they left the room and she walked to a nearby safe and put in the combination and it opened up and inside was a family picture saved from the burning yacht that horrible night and a deck of cards in a silver case and she sighed and replied, "I miss you so much, Theo. I hope this is the best for me and your kids right now. It was a shame to lose such a great husband and father like you. I hope the deck you've won two Duel Monsters championships with will get us far in the case I have to use it."
She opened the case and took the deck out of it and she looked throught and she held the deck close to her heart and she sighed sadly and replied, "Theo, is is for you, my dear. I have a few extra cards that'll make this deck better then before, but I'll keep the theme the same."
She looked inside the safe again and saw the Extra Deck and it had only 6 cards and she looked through it and it has 2 Synchros and 4 Xyz monsters and both Synchros were the same and the Xyz were two of the same monster and two of another Xyz and she replied, "I should do good with these cards."
She put the decks back in the safe and she quickly locked it up and turned off a nearby lamp and then she got into bed and slowly difted off to sleep.

Back in the light dimension, Dawn Knight and Gilita were leading the way to the temple while Alchemist was watching over the hideout and main city.

Dawn Knight then replied, "You better, my friend. You'll be in for one of the hardest duels You've ever been in."
Suddenly, the saw the large temple and a Hysteric Fairy (ATK: 1,800) was blocking the entrance to it and Giltia sighed and replied, "Great."
They all walked up to him and the fairy replied, "What do you all want?"
Kristen took a step foward and replied, "To duel the leader and I'm not leaving with a chance too."
The fairy then replied, "You won't get to duel me uness I'm defeated first, kids!"
Tiffany then replied, "Let me then."
She took a few steps foward..

Tiffany (LP: 6900) smiled and replied, "Your turn now."

She groaned and replied, "I'm sorry I even tried to stop you at all. Lets head in."
The large doors opened up and Dawn Knight walked in and Giltia then replied, "I'll be outside guarding the doors."
They all nodded as the doors slammed shut.

A hour or so later, the gang was was walking down the hallway leading to the chamber with Hysteric Fairy leading the way.
Kristen then replied, "Man. we've been walking forever now."
The fairy sighed and replied," Humans these days. Sheesh. We'll be at the door soon."
Tiffany then replied, "You ready for this, Kristen?"
She smilerd at her friend and replied, "Born ready, girlfriend. I can't wait for this duel."
The stopped out a jewel-crustred golden door and Hysteric Fairy replied, "You ready for this? The leader is the best of the Fortress leaders and one tough duelist to take down."
Kristen smiled and replied, "Born ready. Let us in."
"Your funeral."
She took a key from her pocket and slid into a nearby silver lock and they heard a loud click as the large door dropped into the floor and replied, "Come on in."
They all walked in and as there slammed shut again and the gang gasped about how beautiful the chamber was! They were pictures and jewels all over the walls of the chamber and went they looked up they saw a glass roof and the light shined on through.
Tiffany then replied, "Beautiful."

She nodded nad replied, "Yes, sir. I'm ready to duel you."
"Good. Stand across from me."

"Good to here. We have the duel now and if you lose, you must leave and return again..when you're ready for rematch with me and if you win, the final key is yours plus something special for only you to use, Kristen Kenway."
Kelly then replied, "How'd he know her name?"
Hysteric Fairy looked at her and replied, "You're kidding, right? He's the king and lord of fairies and the leader of this fortress! You'd think he'd know everyone that entered his kingdom, right?"
"Well, excuse me."
Shinato looked at Hysteric Fairy and replied, "Calm down or leave this chamber now."
"Yes, sir.", the fairy said with a sigh.
he turned to Kristen and replied, "Let's get this duel done already."

Suddenly, a small bomb ring appeared around her leg and exploded, blowing the fairy into shards (Shinato LP: 500 - 0) - (Kristen LP: 550 - 0).
Tiffany then replied, "Wow, a tie."
Rick then replied, "So, what happens for a fotress duel ends in a draw?"
Dawn Knight sighed and replied, "Both duelists shuffle their decks and draw the top card of it and whoever's monster is weaker, that stronger one wins the duel and all spells and traps are ignored until a monster is drawn and you can't take back the monster draw either."
They both did that and Shinato replied, "You first, young lady."
Kristen drew the top card and it was a Warrior's Pride and she drew the next one and she sighed as Jutte Fighter appeared next to her (ATK: 700).
Tiffany then replied, "Ouch, man."
Kelly crossed her fingers on both hands and she replied, "Please, please, let this end well."
Rick then replied, "Lets see."
Shinato drew a card and it was a Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen and drew another one and it was a Solemn Judgment trap and he drew a card and he turned the card around...revealing a Marshmallon and the small fairy appeared (ATK: 300) and the girls cheered as the tiny warrior went and struck the wobbly fairy with his weapon and it gave the tuner a raspberry before fading away and Kristen smiled and replied, "I guess I win now."
Shinato nodded and replied, "Guess so, young lady. Talk with me for awhile and we'll get you what you want later."
"Sounds good to me, sir."
