It had been a few hours since Yusaku's victory over Ryoken and everyone had just arrived in Paradise City. And they had been explained from Yuto, and are getting acclimated by the Knights of Hanoi, and all those from Den City.

"Mommy, daddy!" called several young voices.

At that the Yu-Boys, and Bracelet Girls but Yuri, and Celina looked over to see their kids with Sylvio, a black haired man, a blue haired young man with a lollypop in his mouth, along with a tanned man with a metallic plate on his head, and finally a man wearing a magician uniform with a cane with a blonde haired woman heading over.

"Hey, were you guys all good?" Yugo asked with a smile.

"Yeah Daddy!" Chandler cried hugging him.

"And now it's safe to assume everything we've been working toward for the last 10 years was finally accomplished?" the tanned man asked Declan, and Riley with a smile.

"Not exactly, the situation is far more complicated than we initially thought father." Declan answered.

"The Hanoi were... they were like you dad." Riley admitted. "Trying to do something good, but doing it the wrong way... and SOL Technologies was behind that... not the Hanoi."

"So this is only part of a much bigger plot." the blue haired boy realized, "So SOL Tech's the next step huh?"

"Yeah." Yuya nodded. "It is Sora."

"Well SOL is a big company up ahead." the black haired man said, "So if their tied to this then we've got your back like old times."

"Thanks." Lulu smiled.

"Not to change the subject, but is the main dueling field free?" Yuri inquired.

"What for?" the magician man asked curiously.

"For Yusaku and I to have a match." Yuri smiled.

"And to show the glory of Paradise City." Yusaku smiled back.

"Oh come on Skip might have them waiting." the blonde woman smiled.

"So... a Master Duel or an Action Duel?" Yuya asked.

"What else when I say, 'Glory of Paradise City'?" Yusaku asked with a smile, "Den City still hasn't accustomed to the ARC System since SOL prefers Virtual Reality over real life cards that can be touched."

"That sounds perfect." Yuri smiled.

"Ah the Arc System Technology. Now we get to see that with our own eyes." Genome grinned a little.

"I'm a bit interested seeing them in person." Ryoken admitted, "Well no point standing around right?"

"No, there isn't." Akira noted. "It truly is unique."

"Well let's get to You Show for you to find all." Sora winked with a grin.

They head to the Duel School looking.

"You Show... It's been a long time since I've been here." Yusaku admitted.

"Home sweet home." Yuya smiled.

"And more then welcome for everyone!" a blue haired man smiled walking out with a red-haired woman, "Yusaku it's been a while."

"More then a while Tate." Yusaku admitted, "Is Uncle Skip here?"

"He's talking with Frederick right now." the red haired woman answered.

"How is he doing?" Celina inquired.

"He's doing good." Tate smiled as they walked in.

"Dad?" Zuzu asked walking over to him.

A red haired man wearing an orange jump suit with a green haired man looked over as he cried, "Zuzu your back! How was everything in Den City? Is it finally over?"

"No, in fact it's just starting." Yuya admitted.

"Just starting?" Zuzu's father asked confused.

"Didn't it start long ago?" the green haired man asked.

"We'll explain after Yuri and Yusaku have their duel." Ryoken said calmly. "Just know that the real enemy is and always has been SOL Technologies... Actually, I think you may need a career change Zaizen."

"After learning all that SOLs had done, I can't help but feel the same." Akira admitted.

Ryoken just nodded at that. After that Yusaku, and Yuri stepped on the big field as everyone watched as Zuzu's father, Skip, asked Yuri, "Alright Yuri, which field do you want to have with him?"

"Yusaku?" Yuri inquired. "You wanted to surpass me right?"

"I want to try." Yusaku grinned.

"Then there's only one option, activate the Action Field Fusion Palace!" Yuri called.

"Alright Fusion Palace open!" Skip called.

"Augmented Reality Combat System energized. Generating Action Field." a computer voice said as the field glowed.

As it did a massive castle appeared around them with the sky resembling a Fusion Summon.

"We're using Master Duel rules Yusaku?" Yuri inquired.

"Indeed like old times but that should be no problem. Of course there's only one question now." Yusaku said to him, "Which deck?"

Yusaku grinned at that.

"Huh?" Tate asked confused.

"During the road here, Yusaku, and Yuri had a talk." Celina explained.


Flashback...

"Dad, can I ask something?" Yusaku asked as their riding to Paradise City.

"What is it Yusaku?" Yuri inquired.

"I had been thinking of something. Now that we stopped the Hanoi, and the burden of the past is gone... What can be the Cyberse Deck's new purpose?" Yusaku asked him, "The reason we searched, and used it was to fight the Hanoi, and now that we stopped them, I don't know what else we can ask it."

Yuri closed his eyes hearing that. "Do you feel a connection to the Cyberse cards?"

Yusaku hearing that looked down to his deck with Ai's eye was closed for resting as he admitted, "I do hear, and feel pulses from them time to time."

"Then there's your answer. Whatever it is you do from now on, keep those cards with you. A duelist has a connection with their deck, even if we've gotten past the Hanoi... even if we get past SOL Technologies, you'll always be a duelist and those cards will always be yours." Yuri told him.

Yusaku hearing that stared at the Cyberse Deck before grinning, "Then it will be used throughout."

Yuri grinned back nodding.

Flashback End...


"Yeah, I had wondered what else it can be used for." Cal admitted with Jin beside him.

"Once we handle SOL Tech, it can be used for Yusaku to lead a new generation of duelists." Yuya smiled.


Fusion Palace

Action Field Spell

You can use Action Cards, but you can only have 1 Action Card in your hand.


"Looks like a good time to start dueling!" Yusaku called.

Yuri continued, "To see who can be the top duelist here in this field!"

"For anything it's to see if the student can surpass the master!" Yusaku added.

"The time has come for that!" Yuri called.

"And now let this match get underway!" the two called in sync, "Action...!"

"DUEL!"


(Final Dueling Theme of the Season: White Flags by As Lions)

Yusaku: 4000

Yuri: 4000

Let the duel begin!


At that an orb that was building burst as cards scattered through the arena, "Action Cards disbursed."

"You can go first Yusaku, I want to see just how much you've grown." Yuri smiled.

Yusaku 1st Turn:

"Okay then!" Yusaku grinned.

Ai asked him, "I guess, I can just sit back, and watch?"

"Yes." Yusaku said to him.

"Alright then I'll say no words." Ai said to him.

Yusaku called, "My turn! I start by activating Cynet Codec!"

"Appear again, the circuit that leads to the future!" Yusaku called as the circuit appeared, "The summoning conditions are at least 2 Cyberse!"

"Codec's effect activates! When I summon a Code Talker I can add a Cyberse, that has the same attribute as Encode's but I can only summon Cyberse monsters, and can't add another monster with the same attribute!" Yusaku called, "I add Backup Secretary to my hand! Now Dotscaper's ability! Once a duel when it's sent to the graveyard, I can summon it again!"

Dotscaper appeared again. Yuri nodded before suddenly turning and running into the palace. Seeing that Yusaku ran after him, "And now as I control a Cyberse, I summon Backup Secretary!"

Secretary appeared.

"Codec's effect activates! I add Micro Coder to my hand!" Yusaku said showing the card, "And appear a third time circuit that leads to the future!"

The circuit appeared.

"Summoning conditions at least 2 Cyberse!" Yusaku called as Code Talker, and Micro Coder entered the arrows, "Link Summon! Link 3, Excode Talker!"

You can only use this effect of "Excode Talker" once per turn. Monsters this card points to gain 500 ATK, also they cannot be destroyed by card effects.


"That's an impressive combo Yusaku." Yuri noted calmly.

"Their's plenty where that came from!" Yusaku called adding a trap, "Micro Coder adds Cynet Regression to my hand! Excode Talker's ability! Grasp Zone! Any Main Monster Zone can't be used equal to monsters in the Extra Monster Zone!"

Excode fired an orb sealing the zone Encode points on Yuri's field.

"And now as as Excode is pointing at monsters they gain 500 attack points, and cannot be destroyed by card effects!" Yusaku added.

Encode Talker: (ATK: 2300 + 500 = 2800)

"Codec's effect activates! I add Parallel eXceed to my hand!" Yusaku called adding a monster, "Then I place 1 card down, and end my turn."

"Astonishing... How much stronger has Yusaku grown throughout the time with the Cyberse cards...?" Skip asked trailing off in shock.

"He's gotten really strong." Celina answered.

Yuri 1st Turn:

"Alright Yusaku, I think I'll start things off with the spell card Predaponics. This allows me to summon a level four or lower Predaplant monster from my hand or graveyard each turn at the small cost of its special abilities." Yuri stated. "So I'll summon Predaplant Squid Drosera in attack mode."


Predaponics

Continuous Spell Card

Once per turn: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower "Predaplant" monster from your hand or Graveyard, but it has its effects negated (even if this card leaves the field). Once per turn, during your Standby Phase, pay 800 LP or destroy this card.

Yusaku nodded jumping up the castle's wall with the platforms.

"Now with that done I'll use Polymerization to merge Squid Drosera with Predaplant Drosophyllum Hydra in order to Fusion Summon Predaplant Chimerafflesia." Yuri smirked as a huge plant appeared.

Once per turn, during the next Standby Phase after this card was sent to the Graveyard: You can add 1 "Polymerization" Spell Card or "Fusion" Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.


"Now, under normal circumstances Squid Drosera's ability would be negated but since it was sent to the graveyard its ability to place a Predator Counter on all of your monsters will activate." Yuri told him as two plants bit Encode, and Excode.

Encode: (Predator Counter: 1)

Excode: (Predator Counter: 1)

"Maybe but since Link Monsters don't have levels the only thing that ability done is placing counters so Chimerafflesia's ability can't banish any of them!" Yusaku reminded.

"Yusaku, when did I say anything about that?" Yuri inquired with a smirk. "I sacrifice Encode Talker in order to summon Predaplant Banksiogre to my field in attack mode."

Encode vanished as a plant appeared.

"There's more than one way for me to use Predator Counters Yusaku."

"What the?" Cal asked in shock, "How did he do that?"

"He used Banksiogre's ability." Yuya answered. "Yuri can special summon it by sacrificing an opponent's monster with a Predator Counter."

"Now that I've taken care of that, Predaplant Chimerafflesia attack Excode Talker, and you remember what happens when this monster battles don't you?" Yuri smirked while grabbing an Action Card.

"Chimerafflesia steals 1000 points from the opponent monster it's battling." Yusaku answered with a grunt.

Chimerafflesia: (ATK: 2500 + 1000 = 3500)

Excode: (ATK: 2300 - 1000 = 1300)

"I may take damage but only half thanks to Miracle!" Yusaku called paying an Action Card.


Miracle

Action Spell Card

If a monster on the field battles: Target that monster; it cannot be destroyed by that battle, also any battle damage is halved.


"It protects Excode, and I take only half the damage!" Yusaku called.

The attack hit as Excode Talker was sent crashing to the ground.

(Yusaku: 2900)

"Well, I can't attack with Banksiogre so I think I'll set this card and end my move." Yuri smirked. "I'm expecting something powerful Yusaku, and so is he."


Yusaku: 2900

Yuri: 4000


Yusaku 2nd Turn:

"Witch's effect! I banish Miracle to add Cynet Ritual, and Cyberse Magician!" Yusaku called adding the two, "Then Parallel eXceed's effect! I summon a second!"

The second appeared.

"When their own effects summon themselves, their points, and levels are halved." Yusaku added.

Parallel eXceed: (ATK: 2000 / 2 = 1000/DEF: 2000 / 2 = 1000/LV: 8 / 2 = 4) x2

"Firewall Guardian's ability! I summon this card back when I used it to Link Summon!" Yusaku called as Guardian appeared again.

'Not bad Yusaku, but not quite good enough.' Yuri thought calmly.

"Witch's effect activates! When I use it's ability to add cards, I can summon a level 4 or lower monster next to it's Link!" Yusaku called at this, "Come on back Flame Bufferlo!"

Bufferlo appeared again ready.

"I use my two Parallel eXceeds to build the Overlay Network!" Yusaku called as the two entered the Overlay Network, "The wall of power that annihilates everything! Manifest as the dragon's fang! Xyz Summon! Appear! Rank 4! Firewall eXceed Dragon!"

His Xyz Dragon appeared roaring.

If this card battles a Link Monster, it gains 1000 ATK during that damage calculation only. If this card in your possession is destroyed by an opponent's card effect: You can add 1 Cyberse monster from your Deck to your hand.


"Xyz and Ritual?" Sora asked in shock. "I knew Yusaku could use Fusion and Link but that's insane."

"He can also use Synchro as well." Ryoken grinned at this.

"Being able to use all the mechanics is impressive, but there's a difference between knowing how to use a summoning mechanic, and really understanding it at the highest level." Celina mentioned.

"Flame Bufferlo's ability! When it leaves the field, I discard a Cyberse, and draw 2 cards!" Yusaku called drawing two cards after discarding making his hand 4, "I equip Grid Rod on Cyberse Magician!"

Cyberse Magician held a new staff.


Grid Rod

Equip Spell Card

Equip only to a Cyberse monster you control. It gains 300 ATK, it is unaffected by your opponent's card effects, also the first time it would be destroyed by battle each turn, it is not destroyed. If this face-up card on the field is destroyed and sent to the GY: You can activate this effect; Cyberse monsters you currently control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects until the end of this turn.


"The equipped monster gains 300 attack points!" Yusaku called.

Cyberse Magician: (ATK: 2500 + 300 = 2800)

"It's also unaffected to your effects, and can avoid destruction by battle one time each turn!" Yusaku added the rest of it's effects.

"That's a powerful effect, but even if Chimerafflesia can't lower it's attack points he still gains 1000 which means Cyberse Magician is too weak." Yuri pointed out.

"I know." Yusaku nodded to that notion, "But I can also do this! I activate eXceed Dragon's ability! It gains 500 attack points per link rating of a monster Linked to it!"

eXceed Dragon: (ATK: 2500 + (500 * 2) = 3500)

"Then I activate Code Exporter's effect in my hand!" Yusaku called showing the card, "I use this card, and Witch to Link Summon! Circuit that leads to the future!"

You cannot Special Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect, except Cyberse monsters. You can only use this effect of "Transcode Talker" once per turn.


"Exporter's ability activates! I add Secretary back to my hand!" Yusaku said showing the card, "Codec's effect! I add Code Generator to my hand!"

He shows the card.

"Transcode's ability! I summon back a Link 3 or lower monster!" Yusaku called as Excode appeared, "Excode's ability activates!"

Transcode Talker: (ATK: 2300 + 500 = 2800)

Cyberse Magician: (ATK: 2800 + 500 = 3300)

eXceed Dragon: (ATK: 3500 + (500 * 3) - (500 * 3) + 500 = 4500)

"Transcode's ability! Monsters co-linked with it along itself gain 500 attack points, and can't be targeted by card effects!" Yusaku added as Excode glowed, and Transcode glowed.

Transcode Talker: (ATK: 2800 + 500 = 3300)

Excode Talker: (ATK: 2300 + 500 = 2800)

Yuri's eyes widened in shock.

"Battle! Magician attacks Chimerafflesia!" Yusaku called as he ran for an Action Card.

Chimerafflesia: (ATK: 2500 + 1000 = 3500)

Yusaku grabbed a card, "I activate the Action Spell, High Dive!"


High Dive

Action Spell Card

Target 1 face-up monster on the field; that target gains 1000 ATK until the end of this turn.


"It allows Magician to get 1000 points stronger!" Yusaku called as Magician glowed.

Magician: (ATK: 3300 + 1000 = 4300)

Yuri frowned as his Fusion Monster shattered.

(Yuri: 3200)

"Then eXceed Dragon attacks Banksiogre!" Yusaku called as his Xyz charged a blast.

Yuri braced himself as the attack hit.

(Yuri: 0700)

"Banksiogre's ability activates, all your monsters get Predator Counters!" Yuri stated.

Three plants bit Transcode, Excode, and eXceed Dragon but one was resisted by Magician.

eXceed: (Predator Counter: 1)

Excode: (Predator Counter: 1)

Transcode: (Predator Counter: 1)

"Magician is unaffected to your effects from Grid Rod!" Yusaku told him, "Transcode Talker attacks you directly! Trans Fruit!"

Transcode aimed at Yuri.

"I activate Blinding Blizzard." Yuri countered.


Blinding Blizzard

Action Spell Card

End the Battle Phase.


"This spell ends the battle which means you won't be defeating me this turn."

Transcode fired but missed.

"Huh? If he had that why didn't he used it before his Fusion, and other monster are destroyed?" Cal asked confused.

"Because Yuri wanted his monsters destroyed, Banksiogre's destruction put Predator Counters on Yusaku's monsters, and Chimerafflesia has its own ability." Yugo answered. "If I know Yuri like I think I do, Yusaku is going to lose the duel this time."

"I place 2 cards down. I end my turn." Yusaku ended his turn, "Bring him out Dad! I know what your planning next, so don't leave us in suspense!"

Yuri 2nd Turn:

"If you insist Yusaku." Yuri smirked. "Predaplant Chimerafflesia's special ability lets me add a Fusion card from my deck to my hand during the Standby Phase, and I think I'll add another Polymerization, oh, and since I can't pay the cost Predaponics goes to my graveyard."

The card shattered at that.

"Not sure, I like that look, or what's coming next." Skye admitted.

"You shouldn't." Yuto admitted.

"Yusaku, I summon Predaplant Chlamydosundew in attack mode." Yuri told him.

"Now thanks to Chlamydosundew's ability I can fuse with a monster in my hand, on my field, or a monster with a Predator Counter you control and that monster is treated as a Dark Monster. So I think I'll merge my Predaplant with your Firewall eXceed Dragon!"

At that eXceed Dragon was forced to fuse with the monster as they merged together in the sky.

"Two beautiful flowers with an insect-alluring fragrance! Now become one, and from the hell beneath your petals, give birth to a new terror! Fusion Summon! Appear! Poisonous dragon with hungry fangs. Level 8! Starving Venom Fusion Dragon!" Yuri chanted.

His ace dragon appeared roaring ready to battle staring at the field of two Code Talkers, and Magician.

(New Dueling Theme: My Fight by From Ashes to New)

"So that's Starving Venom... To think I see it up close with my own eyes." Akira said staring at the dragon.

Yusaku grinned to dragon, "Give me all your strength Starving Venom! That's all I ask in this battle!"

"Yusaku, I have my facedown card." Yuri pointed out. "I activate Predapruning, and thanks to this Squid Drosera comes back."


Predapruning

Equip Spell Card

Activate this card by targeting 1 "Predaplant" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it and equip it with this card. When this card leaves the field, destroy that monster.


"Now, you know what's next don't you?"

"Greedy Venom." Yusaku answered.

Yuri only smirked as he activated his Polymerization card. "Poisonous dragon with hungry fangs! Sweet smelling flower that invites the abyss! Now become one, and indulge in whatever pleases you! Fusion Summon! Come forth! Level 10! Greedy Venom Fusion Dragon!"

Yuri's evolved dragon appeared roaring as Yuri ran for an Action Card.

If this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard: Destroy as many monsters on the field as possible, then you can banish 1 Level 8 or higher DARK monster from your Graveyard and Special Summon this card from the Graveyard.


"Greedy Venom's special ability activates, Excode Talker's special abilities are negated and it loses all its attack points."

"Cyberse Magician's effect activates! As I have a Link Monster on the field the target of that effect shifts to Cyberse Magician!" Yusaku called as Greedy Venom aimed to Cyberse Magician, "Grid Rod's effect! The equipped monster cannot be effected to your effects!"

Yuri's eyes widened slightly. "Interesting Yusaku, in that case... Greedy Venom Fusion Dragon attacks Cyberse Magician!"

"Huh what's he doing!?" Ai asked seeing that, "Both their attack points are the same!"

Knowing what he's up too Yusaku ran for an Action Card.

'Yusaku... you haven't surpassed me yet.' Yuri thought as he activated an Action Card.

Yusaku grabbed an Action Card, "I activate-"

The card shattered shocking him.

"What the?" Ai asked seeing that.

"Action Crush." Yuri stated. "Thanks to this card destroys any Action Card in your hand and if either of us try to use any more this turn they're automatically destroyed."


Action Crush

Action Spell Card

Destroy all Action Cards in your opponent's hand, also for the rest of this turn after this card resolves, each time a player adds an Action Card to their hand, destroy that Action Card.


"Without an Action Card my attack continues."

With that Magician fought back as only the dragon shattered.

"Grid Rod protects Magician from battle destruction once a turn. But why would he run a battle like that?" Ai asked.

"It's Greedy Venom's other ability." Yusaku answered, "All monsters on the field are destroyed, then he can banish a level 8 Dark monster from the graveyard, and re-summon Greedy Venom. But due to Excode's ability Transcode avoid destruction!"

Excode shattered.

Transcode: (ATK: 3300 - 500 - 500 = 2300)

Magician: (ATK: 3300 - 500 = 2800)

"True, but now by banishing Starving Venom, Greedy Venom can return and this time Cyberse Magician won't be surviving my attack." Yuri smirked.

Greedy Venom appeared again attacking Magician.

"Magician's ability! All damage is halved!" Yusaku called as Magician fired a beam from his visor at the blast before being struck destroyed, (Yusaku: 2650)

"I'll end my turn, but Yusaku we both know how this duel will end. You've never beaten Starving Venom and Greedy Venom is even more powerful." Yuri told him. "Looks like you're not quite able to beat me yet."


Yusaku: 2650

Yuri: 0700


Yusaku 3rd Turn:

"Maybe." Yusaku agreed, "But it won't mean, I will quit trying!"

Yuri smiled hearing that.

"My turn! Draw!" Yusaku called drawing, "And I activate Transcode's ability! Revive Splash Mage!"

Mage appeared again.

Yuri just smiled as he walked through the palace.

"I activate Synchron's ability!" Yusaku called as Synchro glowed, "It doubles Secretary's level!"

Secretary: (LV: 3 x 2 = 6)

"And now level 1 Synchron tunes level 6 Secretary!" Yusaku called as Synchron turned to 1 ring Secretary turned to 6 stars.

"That's insane, just... what did we miss in Den City?" Sora questioned.

"I chose not to activate Cyberse Clock-Up." Yusaku added.

"Because you're planning on using the effect of Quantum Dragon right?" Yuri guessed.

"Indeed since Clock Dragon won't allow my other monsters to attack when I use Cyberse Clock-Up in case you use a Damage Banish." Yusaku confirmed, "Quantum Dragon attack Greedy Venom!"

His Synchro roared charging.

"Yusaku... you lose." Yuri told him.

"Huh?" Yusaku asked hearing that.

"We've only dueled on this field one other time, so you probably forgot the unique Action Card that only exists here, in the throne room." Yuri told him.

Yusaku widen his eyes hearing that.

"I activate the Action Spell Fusion Pride!" Yuri called.


Fusion Pride

Action Spell Card

If a Fusion Monster you control battles inflict damage equal to that monster's original attack points before applying any card effects.


"Fusion Pride?" Akira asked hearing that.

"It's a powerful Action Spell that only exists on this field. Yusaku used it himself to beat me a few times." Yuya answered. "If a Fusion Monster battles before anything else Fusion Pride deals its attack points as damage."

Greedy Venom fired a blast as Yusaku thought, 'Backdoor, Parallel Port Armor, and Regression doesn't do anything against effect damage...'

The blast struck him causing him to cry out landing on the floor at the throne.


Yusaku: 0000

Yuri: 0700

Yuri wins the duel!


Yuri walked over to him. "Yusaku... you have surpassed me."

"But... You beat me." Yusaku said looking up.

"I beat you using Action Cards, without them I would have lost easily." Yuri admitted while offering Yusaku his hand. "They're a powerful tool, and I might still be more skilled with Fusion Summoning... but as a duelist you surpassed me a long time ago."

Yusaku looked on before taking a hand getting up with his help, "And if I summoned Darkfluid, this outcome would be different. Even though you said I surpassed you, I still haven't won against you."

Yuri smiled. "I'm looking forward to it already."

He suddenly frowned.

"I just wish we could help Lilly."

"That's where, I come in." Yusaku promised as they walked out where he walks to his sister.

She was looking down sadly. Yusaku hugged her, "Don't beat yourself up."

Lilly hugged him sadly. "I... I want to quit big brother."

"Don't let what Specter done take you down. Losing stings, and sucks but you can always move forward, and get better." Yusaku told her.

Lilly just shook her head sadly. "I'm not like you big brother... I never have been."

"One-day you will." Yusaku promised her.

Lilly looked down sadly before hugging him.


Ulrich362: Well... like Yuri said he might be more skilled with Fusion and Action Cards but Yusaku is the better duelist.

bopdog111: But it was still an epic match between father, and son isn't it?

Ulrich362: True, but now we have the big question... what comes next?

bopdog111: We'll find out.

Ulrich362: Fair enough. See you in the next chapter.

bopdog111: Be sure to review!
