(15-sec music interval)
First, all is black. Then, the data storm suddenly emerges along with the logo. It rides further as Link Vrains flys by. The sun starts rising and slowly envelopes the logo and the storm until it can't be seen.
A crossroad crowded with people. Confused where should I go. Within the flock your breath conceals.
Yusaku walks alone on a sidewalk in Den city, looking forwards. A sad and blank look set on his face. Even with the sun shining on him, it seems dark. People are passing behind him in a blur. Yusaku suddenly stops in the middle of the street. Data slowly fades in from the side changing the street into the background of Link Vrains. The central tower off to the side with a data storm flowing beside it. Playmaker looks up and to the side with a small smile on his face.
Under the rain of oppression. That pours without constraint. Simply just walked Without an umbrella.
Ryoken sits at a desk, the glow of various screens around him are the only sources of light. Programs are displayed on the screen with him staring intently at them. The only emotion visible is a serious intensity as his fingers quietly tap the desk he is on. The familiar data slowly fades the frame as well. Revolver now looks over Link Vrains, arms crossed and his features not as tight as they had been. A data storm flows in the background creating a small breeze.
The manual of era. Must we protect and live by it?
A series of frames past. First Kusanagi, Miyu, and Jin are seen at Cafe Nagi. Kusanagi behind the grill with a spatula in hand. Jin is wiping his hands with a cloth as he looks up at his brother from the truck's front counter. Miyu is holding a hot dog in hand, apparently telling a story or joke to the two as all three of them laugh at it.
A quick shot is in the Den City High School's Duel Club. Desk are outside their original rows as kids from the club are dueling. All members are there except for Aoi and Yusaku. Shima shouts in whin at losing to a girl with black and gold hair She looks really embarrassed during Shima's fit as the rest of the members try to conceal their laughing.
Inside Vrains, Ai is seen lying on his back, his cape though trapped underneath him flutters slightly in the wind. A shadow of an unknown figure covers his face causing him to look further up to see what it is. A smile crosses his lips as he closes his eyes to relax some more.
Frightened by loneliness
Divine sits on a platform with her legs crossed in Link Vrains as a data storm passing right by her. A firm look is held on her face. She gently put her hand in the storm, letting the data flow around it. A small smirk forms as her she pulls her hand out in a fist. Placing her arm in front of her she opens her hand data spirals from it and into the air above. She looks up to follow the data and the scene moves to the data flowing into the sky.
Let's get it! Change now, be yourself and move forward. Even if you follow the crowd, you won't find the answer
A quick burst of light and a data storm busts flowing to the screen. Soulburner and Blue Maiden charge forth and cross while Salmader Heat Leo and Marincess Wonder Heart follow. Seina and Ai burst through the middle, with only Dark Templar Ignister following them. Divine cuts from the left a card forming in her hand as Noble Powered Goddess and Princess follow her duel board. Revolver emerges from the right just as Divine leaves. He motions a card from his hand onto the disk in front of him as Borreload and Borreswoard Dragon follows him. Playmaker emerges from the middle Firewall Dragon and Decode Talker right behind him has his hand is raised like he is declaring an attack.
Change myself. Change can happen
A dark tunnel forms. Three black shadows are drawn in the background, one a dark purple male figure in the middle emerges. Shortly followed by a clear yellow akuma, blue oni, and green yokai all in the middle smirking with crossed arms.
Even more, even more.
Two more scenes quickly follow, though frozen. Akira Zaizen stands by a rail gate as Hayami watches him slightly, a clipboard clutched in her arm. Below the side rail, Emma sits on her bike as Kengo lens against the wall with his scarf pulled up.
Seina sits beside a hospital bed a saddened look on her face. Main monitors are in the room and white sheets hid what we can see. All but Senia holding a frail right hand, a ring on her middle finger.
It can be done
A glorious sun set's in Link Vrains. Playmaker, with a small curve on his lips, stands on a platform with two other people. Divine stands to his left, a hand resting on her hip and a warm-hearted smile. Revolver stands on the right with his arms crossed, his face serious though it is also adorned with a hopeful smile as well.
(7 sec music interval)
The scene moves behind the three duelists as their shadows are cast towards us by the setting sun. Just as the sun hits the halfway point of its setting, data material from the data storm suddenly comes out from nowhere, covering and ending the scene.
Closing: The Non-Fiction Days by Band- Maid
watch?v=ItYN-ri1NPs
(5 second music start-up)
Codes line up across a black background as the screen begins to glitch.
(10 second music Intreval)
A brighter background unfolds with data lines flowing behind. Many characters line up and come across. Soulburner smiles with his head held up high and happy. Blue Maiden passes, her arms behind her back, relaxed with a slight grin adorned. Specter passes, his left hand by his side and his right hand by his heart smiling his usually sinister smile. Seina looks contently as she lays her right arm to her side and clutches it with her left arm across her. UnNamed smiles as he holds his hat in a greeting fashion. Ghost girl smiles and winks flirtatiously. Blood Shepard has his arms crossed in a dismissive way as he appeares after his sister. Brave Max jumps up in celebration as he fades by along. Silver Sterling folds one arm while she rests her cheek on her free hand, giving us a smile all the same. Last but not least Frog and Pidgeon fly out as if trying to catch up to the people who have gone past us.
(5 second music start-up)
White lights blind us before a data storm spirals across and clears out of view.
The broken clocks, which way are they at?
Playmaker looks up at the sky above him and the sun shines on him. A serious look on his face with his fist slightly clenched at his side.
You know it's my choice. Either way it was dark anyway
Revolver stands in the corner of a floating island with his eyes closed in deep thoughts. He is out of sight as the sun sets behind him
By only borrowing. Someone's judgment criteria
In the darkness of an Unknown area, We see Divine at an angel. She stands alone with her head down. A scared look is hidden among her features.
I can differentiate which is good or evil
A quick pixelation shows the Cyberse world alive and thriving.
When I get lonely, I begin to doubt
Ai is seen from the back, quickly turning around as if noticing ours or someone else presence.
Whether I exist or not
Pictures flash. The first couple at a fast pace. One is self with Yusaku and Takeru. Takeru is smiling while Yusaku looks uncomfortable as Takeru wraps his arm around him for the photo. A picture of a six-year-old Ryoken in Dr. Kogami's lap is seen. Ryoken smiles brightly and Kogami's face is stone still. One with Aoi and Miyu and they stand in front of a hospital, both girls smiling wide. Another with Jin happily eating a hot dog with his Cafe Nagi apron on. The last is of Emma and Kengo together, wrapping an arm around each other's back.
The next four photos stay longer. The first one is of Ai and Robboppi together, taken with Link Vrains's tower in the background. Revolver stands with the other Knights of Hanoi. Specter and Genome on his left with Faust and Baria on his right. One of Yusaku sitting and eating on the roof at school one day, looking happy as he eats. The last picture is burned. The only visible spot is the bottom right. The only thing visible is two young girls standing side by side with black school uniforms. The only thing to tell who they are is a gold and while duel disk on the left wrist of the girl on the right.
That's the heavy non-fiction days
An army of Akuma, onis, and akumas emerge blocking out the background behind them.
This lying habit of mine
A chessboard emerges. The only pieces out of place are the king, knight a rook as they take places in the center of the board.
I can't vomit it out, the poison is spreading
Flashes on the Salamanders sleeping, the Marincess playing in streams, the Armatos Legios fighting in a stadium, the Stormriders flying on data storms, the G Golems wrestling, and Code Talkers guarding in Link Vrains.
The befittingly tough non-fiction days. I can't say they're useful, ah I can't smile
Playmaker emerges again riding a data storm. Right near the end, the screen glitches and turns dark. Revolver and Divine are quickly seen in the glitches. Revolver looking injured while Divine is on her knees in defeat.
The non-fiction days, don't tell me they're all fabricated. Even within this room
Seina is seen smiling sadly. She looks up at the sun, slowly raising her hand.
Don't fight myself, oh..
Seina's hand is replaced with Divine's who attempted to grab the sun in front of her, only to let her hand fall, failing to capture the sun.
Sorry if this wasn't the update you were expecting. I have had some family, school (even though I am on break) come up. I have been trying to write the duel but it was going slow so I did this. Hunter HQ suggested it a while back and I have been working on it since. I hope this format isn't confusing. I was trying to separate the actions from the lyrics they belonged to so if you guys went to the music videos, you could follow along. I also used the English translation because I planned on putting the Japanese lyrics in there as well but decided it looked too crowded that way so...
Not to mention I think my ending is more like an opening
Anyway. I have decided to answer comments. I usually PM (and probably still will) but if you guys were wondering the same thing as a comment, I can answer yall to.
The only comment as or currently from the last chapter was Hunter HQ.
Hunter HQ: "Since it's the next day how come Revolver hasn't tried yet to go after Ai like he said? Wonder if Ai is still as serious as he was back in season 3, probably is after what he went through he can't be laid back like before so will Have some getting used to. Since Yusaku is evicted from his apartment will he have to stay at Kusanagi's place? Also wonder what big plan Modicum has that involves the ignis and got Divine so riled up. Hope we hear her backstory soon when she spills the beans. As for divine monsters if you look at anime 5ds the Nordic gods were divine attribute too, so this is canon to the Egyptian gods then?"
KQ: "The question about Revolver with hopefully be answered next chapter. I am not planning on splitting the next chapter into two parts but I might have too, but that will be talked about during the next duel. Ai will be playful and not-so-serious like in the first two seasons but he will still carry some things from season 3 as well. For, Yusaku, he has friends, some in high places. Something will get worked out. You're asking what has Divine so riled up? BOY! Just you wait. It's going to be a while before that's revealed but she has every single reason for her wanting to throw some hands. Part of her backstory will be coming up soon. When looking up Divine Monster, the three Egyptian Gods are the only cards that popped up as Divine. I even checked the Sacred Beasts and Nordic Gods because I thought they were Divine. Turns out they are Light, Dark, and Earth Attribute. Maybe they were only Divine attribute for the Anime and then changed for the official release? I am just going to go with the Egyptian God Cards as the only other Divine Attribute monsters.
Anyway. Leave a follow and/or review, please. Until next time.
