GX, Sonic X plus other Sonic the Hedgehog video game/Anime/Archie and characters, Danny Phantom, Fullmetal Alchemist AND now Valkyria Chronicles. I am borrowing Erika Aoyama and Mew Erika from Redwallfan2000. Ichigo Momomiya is NOW 17 (Volume 4 to 10) years old than 12-13 like in the anime/manga.

Hello Readers to 2019, and say hello to another tale of DKR with Volume 4! This volume, Friends, will be something that you guys won't expect and boy… it's going to be awesome that leads to new doors, events and new fights, hopefully…
First I want to be clear: The Title for this Volume has a meaning and hopefully for those who got it will know.
I want to go into details this was hard to start off due to one major element… this Arc. This first Arc of Volume 4 I'll be dubbing as the following: Blue Flames and Metal Overload!
No, it's not Fire Emblem… it's the other game people forget but still say it's neat; Valkyria Chronicles. Now for those not familiar… war between nations with the bad guys super power hungry and not all the good guys are good and one squad doing the impossible to take back the land for the people… and there's these Valkyrias who wield sacred blue flames as well as shields and lancers like real Valkyrias… and this follows the first one so for those familiar with the two main Valkyrias of this story (Spoiler hehe, Selveria won't die so don't worry).
I actually blame this idea of adding Valkyria Chronicles in DKR to a friend of mines (sort of but we're friends) and fellow Fanfic writer, Vineman. For those who haven't read SHONEN ALLIANCE (read it, I recommended it), it's a crossover of many Shonen Heroes that slowly transforms into all Anime Heroes joining forces to protect the 8 Saiyan Princesses in their mission to destroy the Dark Saiyans, the Dark One and even this Fallen One from destroying all worlds or ruling them. I won't lie… I REALLY like Alicia Melchiott (WHY IS HER LAST NAME SPELLED- never mind) because yes, the fans will pick the Azure Witch aka the female main ''villain'' Selveria but Alicia is well… she would fit well in Yugi's group due to reasons you will see in this arc. As for Welkin… *eyes Masaya* this is the better version of you. YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN WEIRD AND NOT PERFECT MASAYA!
Moving on… this Arc will not 100% follow the events of the Game or the Anime it had and it will be my spin since Maximillian (main villain, aka the Prince Douchebag) isn't exactly the main threat, sort of. For those familiar with the other name in the title of the first arc, that's all I'm hinting towards.
Now enjoy the show.
P.S. I do not own them all or any of them except this crossover story, so I wrote the band's or artist's name that wrote that song which I do not own again.
Intro: The Earth... is a great place where humanity and all other creatures live and learn to evolve little by little, but this great world has Darkness in it too. Evil beings who wish to conquer this world and everyone.
Only one being stood against them to show everyone the power of light and hope, but this great mythical dragon wasn't able to stop them. He gave his powers and hope to a human that was known by his name, the Dragon Knight!
Before this hero also met his end, he gave the legendary Dragon Sword and his hopes and dreams to the next knight, his youngest son who is destined to become a legend by the sides of his comrades and his love. This hero... is the Dragon Knight of Light!

Volume 4: Episode 1: Fight a War? To Gallia?!
Another day has shine upon the lovely city of Domino, as Yugi Mutou, the heroic Dragon Knight of Light, has been chasing through the alleys to make it to his school. It has been three weeks since the battle he had with the dangerous and intelligent Sosuke Aizen. Even if he has another enemy and his army of Espadas to deal with, Yugi has the power to protect everyone; the power of his Friendship, the Dragon Blade. With it, he has what he needs to protect those dear to him.
Yugi is coming a little late to school as usual but that never stops him from making it in time. He rushes faster across the streets with Dragon Speed Burst, making quick turns left and right, almost too easy as he's gotten faster though his training. Or maybe he's just too happy. For once, things were going his way and it's also his desire to be a Dragon Knight that his friends and others can count on, a hero sort of.
"You seem energetic today, partner." The Pharaoh Atem tells his partner with a small smirk floating behind him in spirit form.
The young Dragon Knight smirks eyeing him and replies honestly. "Me? A little. I am pretty happy today. We haven't had any threats from Dark Leader Dragon-kun or Aizen-kun, giving me time to relax and polish my powers by helping people."
Atem immediately agrees with his partner, knowing these days were more like a vacation of fighting those villains. Now dealing with the likes of Aizen, plus Dark Leader Dragon, it would be a matter of time that Yugi will have to raise his sword to fight them again. He then ponders if his partner was ready for that but he still trusts he'll make it work.
"You can't help but try to make these peaceful days to last huh?" Atem states understanding the smile Yugi is making.
The tricolor head frowns a bit but still smiles looking up to the bright sky. With the problems he had to deal like a month ago with the Dark Lord, his new enemies, Light Yagami, who was still a threat even now, and adding Aizen and his army, the young Dragon Knight couldn't help but deserve this break from all that and just enjoy the time he has left before marching back his duties of protecting his friends and everyone else.
"Basically. I want these days to last, before I am once again in the position to fight." Yugi answers back telepathically, trying to smile as best as he can. Atem smiles back feeling the same way looking up.
Yugi eyes the sky but then he frowns recalling Sir Dragonaun. As much as he wishes to understand him; he doesn't for he refuses to open up and tell him what he wanted to know. He wonders what makes him hate the fact he's the Dragon Knight and why?
"YUGI-KUN!" A familiar voice shouts to the tricolor head. This forces Yugi to stop himself and turns uttering. "Huh?"
He didn't see it coming as someone crashes on top of him and hit both their heads as they fall back. Ichigo Momomiya blushes with daze eyes as did Yugi, lying on top of him. Atem sweat drops sighing at how much those two are similar.
''M-Morning Ichigo-kun.'' The tricolor head greets the cat girl, his eyes still spinning, while the cat girl replies with her dizzy eyes. ''Morning to you too Yugi-kun Nya.''
The two manage to get the other up and blush holding hands. They eye each other blushing redder, remembering their ''cuddling'' during Ichigo's Birthday and well… ever since then the two have been rather awkward towards the other but also affection towards each other too.
"My bad Nya! I wasn't looking where I was going again. Exhausted of all the homework I had last night." Ichigo apologizes to her boyfriend with a warm, joyful face. Yugi smiles warmly, almost forgetting his concern about Sir Dragonaun through only seeing her wonderful smile.
''S-sure, I wasn't looking either.'' He replies back blushing. Ichigo giggles teasing him remembering how he can always sense her. ''But you always can sense me Nya.''
Yugi just nods shyly admitting he can. Ichigo giggles recalling the number of times he could always find her or sense she was in danger and appear exactly where she was. And then it hit the red cherry head; she never asked him about that power.
''Speaking off, I never got to ask you this: You can always sense aura?'' The red cherry head asks him finally. Yugi's ability has always made her curious how he learned or gained such power since it has ALWAYS helped him in one form or another.
The tricolor head is surprised she hasn't asked him that and even he wasn't prepared what he could tell her since no one bother asking him.
''Not always. It just happened one day.'' He states still puzzled how he gained that power of his. Ichigo just blinks confused that he notices it. He then startles questioning her. ''Wait I didn't told you that?''
Ichigo shakes her head as Yugi sweat drops embarrassed. He told her all of his adventures before becoming the Dragon Knight that he forgot to tell her how he gain the power to sense people. Coughing, he announces to her. ''It was probably the first few months after Atem left and it's hard to describe it.''
Ichigo just smiles as her cat ears widen to hear the tale. Yugi smiles as he explains how he couldn't find the others to hang out that day, probably gone elsewhere. And then one moment or another he just felt a strange pulse, warm but passionate about dancing. He knew right away it was Anzu. He followed the strange sense until he found her with the others playing Dance-Dance and sadly Anzu was the winner in all the attempts Jonouchi and Honda made.
''I see Nya. Could it be like a new ability you gain from beating the Pharaoh?'' She asks referring to the duel Yugi had when trying to send Atem back to the afterlife. Yugi hums about it, looking on his back at Atem in Spirit Form who shrugs his shoulders not sure either.
Yugi looks back at Ichigo not exactly sure either replying. ''Don't know. It's strange really but I always… not sure, I could always tell what others felt, I mean when they're not hiding it sometimes but even then I struggle to know exactly where they could be.''
Ichigo hums admitting that if Yugi had the aura ability sooner, he would be able to know who was really Marik back then in the first Battle City and not Rashid or Yami Bakura whenever he controls Bakura too… OR mind controlled characters or sensing danger. If he did, all those problems would be easy to handle.
''And now you can immediately tell friend from foe and locate them Nya!'' She says now sounding excitedly how much more comfortable it is having her boyfriend able to sense evil from anywhere or anyone.
''Yup!'' Yugi answers blushing almost embarrassed. He never did test how far of a range this ability has but so far it's a miracle worker. Ichigo giggles at his incredible power praising it more. ''That's an amazing ability that has saved me and the others many times over and over Nya!''
Yugi blushes red happy for her praise. Though he is curious if this is a power he gained from Atem or… no, he wasn't a Dragon Knight back then. So how?
And then Yugi remembers what Aizen told him during their fight. He mentioned he and his mother had the same ability. He frowns forgetting that part but now that he recalls it; it leaves him even more puzzled. His mother, May, as far as remembered her was a kind woman much like himself, as far as the last image of his dead mother's smile gave him the impression. In fact Jenny told him he was very much like her as far as her memories recalled.
Yugi looks down wondering the kind of person his mother was or even his father. Still, it puzzles him why his mother has that ability and now he does too. So many questions and yet no answers.
''Say you're coming over today right Nya?'' Seeing this is getting to him, Ichigo asks changing the subject with a peppy face. Yugi blinks actually snapping out and eyeing her. He looks at her clueless asking nervously. ''F-For what?''
Ichigo hums eyeing him and sees his cheeks burning red. Then she gets it panicking herself. He really assumes they would… do that again? Even the day they spend with each other was almost forgotten out of Ichigo's conscious until now.
''OOH! N-Not that Nya!'' She responds nervously letting a few choked out laughs. Yugi blushes red not sure if he dodged a bullet or missed another pleasurable time with his Strawberry Kitten.
Calming down a bit, Ichigo reminds him. ''Remember Eddy's Automails were destroyed?''
Yugi nods very obvious of that. After the end of the attack Aizen made with his Espadas, Ed and Al were the most injured since the Espada they fought with their group destroyed both of Ed's Automails and the bottom half of Al's armored body including his arms.
''Yea, Edward-kun is still not happy about it.'' The tricolor head states also recalling how much madder Ed was since he can't walk properly or use his Alchemy, not even to fix up his younger brother. Ichigo nods very familiar since he lives in her house and he's been complaining A LOT.
''Well his Automail mechanic is coming today to give him new limbs.'' Ichigo explains being aware of this many times by Alphonse and even catching a conversation with Ed with said mechanic on the phone… didn't turn well as far as she can say it.
''Isn't that the same person Alphonse told you that hates Ed?'' Yugi asks basically hitting the right button though Ichigo replies blushing. ''More like they like each other… but the same Nya.''
Yugi hums already imagining Ed madder than usual for an entertaining show. He asks thinking of everyone else wanting to see that and the curiosity what this mechanic looks like. ''I can imagine the others are coming?''
Ichigo nods responding. ''Especially that Baka. I want me and Jonouchi for once to have a good laugh Nya.''
The tricolor head sweat drops but smiles on the fact that for once she and Jonouchi will be under good terms than the usual ''He insults her and she kicks his nuts'' routine. And also he was curious who Ed's mechanic and why the grumpiest around it.
''I'm in.'' Yugi accepts with a big smile on his face. Ichigo purrs joyfully letting it out. ''GREAT NYA!''
He nods still smiling until Ichigo makes a cat tooth smirk, grabbing his arm almost playfully. Yugi blinks and immediately sweats seeing his cat girl giving him a seductive look.
''And then you and I can be alone again Nya.'' Ichigo tells him with a soft, but sexy voice as her cat tail moves and touches Yugi's crotch. The tricolor head blushes redder gulping but eager replying. ''I-I would like that GREATLY, hehe…''
Ichigo simply giggles pulling Yugi forward still holding hands. He blushes oddly more in love with her.
After hours of classes, school day finally ends and Yugi and friends walk all together towards Momomiya's house. Even Kurosaki, after he got off in his school ALL the way in Karakura Town, got a text to come her as fast as possible. He was going to deny the offer but somehow with MERE WORDS he was convinced by the likes of Momomiya. That girl knows how to charm anyone to do what she asks with her damn, selfie kitty face.
''I can't believe you guys convinced me to come along.'' Kurosaki mutters angrily not believing this is happening. Ichigo just smiles happily with Jonouchi explaining it. ''It's a team thing. We all should be here-''
''Except Shadow, he hates these kinds of things.'' Sonic, also with the group very excited to see the mechanic, interrupts by the fact not everyone in Team Dragon Knight is here.
''Or Kaiba-kun.'' Yugi adds as those two would not be part of this even if they were asked nicely by his Ichigo. Judai nods humming as he's staring at his phone oddly focus into it.
''And sorry I'm not here. I got school tomorrow and don't want to oversleep.'' Danny, speaking through Otogi's smartphone, is technically present though he's in his room in Amity Park.
''You're playing an online game right now.'' Honda says able to hear the game Danny is playing in the background.
Danny immediately gets intense as he explains himself a little bit too energetic, probably from sipping too many energy drinks. ''CAN'T HELP IT! This is important for me and Tuck to beat Doomed ULTRA!''
Jonouchi shivers out of rage stating just as mad, having bad memories. ''Damn! I hate that game much like Doomed! I always lose to that jerk Chaos.''
Honda nods remembering how painful Jonouchi had it hard playing that game and he immediately quit after losing possibly a thousand times from some unknown player who's said to be the best. Like what kind of human is that good playing a video game?
''You're welcome.'' The responds comes from Sam in Danny's room, waving at the other side. Jonouchi growls angrily not believing this either as he mutters upset. ''Of course it's the goth girl.''
''Danny remember, we got the ultimate cheat code to win! We so-'' Tucker's voice echoes on Danny's end though he's in his own room in his house, struggling badly playing this new version of Doomed but with the best player on their side then-
Danny however speaks after Sam whisper something into his ear. ''Sam says she's not helping us and she will destroy us and…''
He pauses hearing his girlfriend whisper something that actually got him excited. ''Oh ho!''
Ichi giggles able to tell that chuckle is that of cute lovey-dovey talk.
''Young love Nya.'' The red cherry head mutters joyfully very happy Danny and Sam, regardless of how she doesn't like goth-like nature; those two are a lovely couple. She then glares angrily towards the orange-headed Ichigo and how much she can tell that Orihime cares about the idiot and he can't even tell, JUST as much as Hinata cares for Naruto but he's an idiot who also can't tell the difference.
''YOU SHOULD LEARN SOMETHING!'' Momomiya yells at him really mad. Kurosaki sweat drops extremely puzzled what that meant, responding confuse. '… 'I-I don't even have a girlfriend.''
''…'' Judai didn't even say a word as he's sending a text to someone in his cellphone.
''So your parents aren't here?'' Honda awkwardly asks wanting to change the subject. Ichi, feeling better now, responds to his question. ''Not right now Nya.''
They were all about to arrive in Momomiya's house but it's at this time Judai, looking around the group, and notices other than Kaiba and Shadow, there was someone else not present other than Danny.
''Huh? Naruto isn't here yet?'' Judai asks surprised he's not here. Kurosaki soon notices the brown-orange headed wasn't even paying attention to their conversations and instead focusing on his phone and its messages.
''W-were you chatting?'' He asks him puzzled that the guy who lives and breathes playing a children's card game would enjoy chatting in a cellphone. Judai just smirks sending a final text and puts his phone away who just so happened to be Asuka. On her end, Asuka giggles reading the joke that Kurosaki is clueless about love.
Ichi actually thought about Naruto and thankfully from her birthday money, and of course making everyone chip in, to buy the idiot his own phone… though they all had to explain it to the idiot how it works, even Sonic tried to teach him. Eventually, he got how it works… a few hours or so.
''I send him a message but I doubt he'll understand how to use that phone after all that-'' She begins complaining the knuckle-headed wouldn't know how to use it but before she could finish as they arrived to the Momomiya Resident, panting as he leads his back on the wall next to the door is Naruto himself. The group stares surprised as the Shinobi tries utters, catching his breath heavily while gripping tightly on the orange-red colored cellphone in his hand. ''I-WAS-WAITING-HERE… YA-KNOW!''
Yugi sweat drops really amazed that Naruto always surprises everyone with these moments. Ichi sighs just as amazed by this too.
''So how exactly is the squirt going to handle himself that we will get to see his girl-'' Jonouchi suddenly asks out loud curious pretty sure the mechanic could be a chick, probably a MEH type but before he could finish his sentence the door slams open and hits an exhausted Naruto across the face, revealing it's an angry Ed who kicked the door while carrying a handicap cane and a missing leg and arm being his automail ones.
''SHE AND I ARE NOT DATING AND WHO ARE YOU CALLING SQUIRT!'' Edward yells in a storm of rage going to kick and bite anyone he sees daring to insult his cripple state and make them regret it. Jonouchi actually gulps finding that imitating.
Behind the enraged Alchemist is Al, dragged by a red cart since the bottom half his armored body had been roasted by the attack of the Espada they encountered.
''You amazed us sometimes how you can even move like this Edward-kun?'' Bakura mutters with a stun, stiff expression. Yugi nods in agreement smiling.
Ed sighs replying still sounding angrily. ''I find ways.''
Everyone sweat drops to hear that as Judai helps the swallowed face Naruto up his feet, grunting in pain whenever he moves an inch.
''So you told her where to come right?'' Sonic asks the shorty with a scum grin on his face. Ed makes a grim glare before turning his head and responds. ''… Al did.''
Alphonse lets out a nervous chuckle explaining it. ''Brother and Winry don't get along well.''
''Is it because she's ugly or too tall for him?'' Jonouchi immediately questions very curious. Honda sweat drops taking a step away as did Otogi, both sensing the sense of danger coming from Momomiya glaring venomous towards the dirty blond colored head.
Edward sweats drops not exactly mad or stun, just wondering if Winry would fit in the category of ugly, FAR from it… taller than him for sure.
''… Not the ugly part.'' He admits not going into details. Everyone hums now pretty sure this mechanic is a girl.
Just then Yugi turns hearing something as did Ichi.
''A car is pulling out.'' Judai informs the group as a black car pulls in front of the house. Edward grunts no doubt it's her.
''Great, that must be W-.'' Al begins saying but he doesn't get the chance as a door opens up from the car and almost instantly something is thrown out of it, hitting Ed across the face.
''GAH!'' Ed shouts in pain dropping on the ground, hard and fast. Everyone drops their jaws eyeing what hit him and it was a wrench.
''W-was that a wrench?'' Danny asks dumbstruck as did Judai. Yubel giggles stating to Judai with a small smirk. ''This should be good.''
Getting out of the passenger door that opened up was an attractive young woman with long, light blonde hair and blue eyes. She has a petite, girlish figure and is slightly taller than Edward. Her hair is tied in a long ponytail tied high in back, while leaving a long lock of hair on either side of her face and her bangs falling casually from right to left across her forehead. She also has ears pierced in an avant-garde style, with two identical pairs of hoop earrings on each earlobe and an additional two cuff studs worn vertically on her right ear, above the others. She wears a green light-colored tank top while having on a black leather jacket and also wearing black short skirt with a pair of black boots. She had a mad, but oddly cute face gazing towards Ed.
''YOU IDIOT! YOU DESTROYED MY AUTOMAILS AGAIN!'' The young woman begins yelling at the small alchemist almost insanely.
Jonouchi widens his eyes really take back by her appearance and definitely not his type muttering out almost frightened. ''… Well she's hot but that type of hot.''
''The Tsundere; a dangerous girl to fall for.'' Otogi reveals almost like a researcher. Honda gives the dice guy a look like ''Huh''. Ignoring the two talking nonsense, Ed explains it to Winry. ''IT'S NOT MY FAULT! THEY WERE BLASTED-''
''LIKE EVERY TIME ED!'' Winry immediately calls him out hearing that excuse every time. At this point it's not a surprise that he would- they? The blonde haired girl blinks spotting Alphonse behind the shorty and gasps out seeing his condition. ''Al?!''
''Um hi Winry, good to see you again.'' Al tries greeting basically his and Ed's childhood friend though he couldn't wave without arms. Winry examines the burned marks on Alphonse's armored suit and then turns to examine Ed where his automails were. Besides the attachments still intact but burned on the tips, nothing else remained.
''Is this all that remains of the Automails I made?'' She questions him almost puzzle how her top class automails were burned like this. Ed grunts confirming it. ''Yea, burned away by a freaking hand blast.''
''Was it that man who tried to kill-'' Winry asks concerning that it was the State Alchemist Killer that attacked both brothers before but Ed coughs loudly using his eyes to look towards Yugi and his group, almost making her to stop since they weren't alone. Winry blinks turning and startles seeing the large group she didn't notice until now. She is passionate with her automails so when Ed breaks them, she gets VERY upset. Guess in this case, her rage blinded her of the other people around her.
''Oh hello! I didn't see you all.'' Winry speaks to the group apologetic as well as embarrassed. Everyone else sweat drops a bit though Sonic states with a wide grin enjoying the arguing. ''We figured as much.''
Ichi rolls her eyes approaching the blonde-haired girl and introduces herself in her nature, peppy nature. ''You must be Winry Nya! I'm Ichigo Momomiya and it's very nice to meet you Nya!''
''Um likewise?'' Winry utters actually taken back by this girl's positivity, almost a sweet relief compared to Ed's grumpiest or complaining.
''She's a friend who annoys me. All of them too, well most.'' Ed explains to her noticing the cat girl glaring upset towards him on that comment. The same went with Kurosaki and Jonouchi while Yugi sweat drops.
Winry blinks really surprise. It's not astonishing from Al but Ed to make friends now that's insane to believe. She mutters out trying to not sound so impressed to not hurt Ed's ''I don't need others'' attitude. ''Huh? So you two have been making friends huh? Good!''
''I guess.'' Ed mutters sounding just as unimpressed to not prove a point. Everyone sweat drops able to tell he's lying to himself.
''Stubborn till the end.'' Winry mutters sighing. She eyes the group especially Ichigo and greets them bowing. ''Um thank you for watching for Ed and Al, they're a handful. I'm Winry Rockbell by the way.''
''It's nice to meet you, ya know!'' Naruto speaks out loud grinning. Winry blushes by his positive attitude, way greater than Ed. Ichi smiles adding happily. ''And they've been a handful, especially Eddy.''
Ed snaps ranting angrily by her stupid nickname for him. ''OH DON'T YOU START!''
Winry turns to him grinning evilly and mutters almost curious. ''Eddy huh?''
''DID YOU GET THE PARTS!'' The short golden blond alchemist shouts demanding about the new automail limbs he needs, and wanting to change the subject fast. Winry giggles seeing she hit his nerves harder than usual replying. ''Yea-yea, I did and I'm not exactly alone.''
''Noisy as ever, Fullmetal.'' A voice calls out as the doors of the car opens up. The group turns and sees the one speaking is Colonel Mustang. With him were also Major Hughes and Lieutenant Hawkeye.
''Colonel!'' Alphonse utters out shock to see him here too.
''Woah that's the guy Ed hates.'' Danny announces pretty surprise the colonel he's been told of looks UNLIKE what he imagine him. On the contrary, the guy looked WAY too cool to even torment Edward.
Hughes lets out a chuckle hearing that as he states. ''Oh they're more like they can't get along well.''
Mustang scoffs as did Ed, not at all convinced those two can ever get along. The Colonel then tells his closest friend with a firm tone. ''Hughes, not the time.''
Hughes just grins nodding. Ichi giggles happy to see them uttering. ''The Major is here too and Miss Hawkeye-chan!''
''Lieutenant, Miss Momomiya.'' Hawkeye corrects her sweat dropping a bit how this girl has too much joy in her voice. Ichigo blushes apologizing. ''S-sorry Nya.''
Yugi smiles eyeing the Colonel with a calm gaze, almost telling him without words what's the visit for. Mustang sighs answering him and his friends. ''Let's speak inside shall we?''
The tricolor head allows it. Ichi allows everyone inside as she tries to grab a bag of cookies for guests… or in this case, whenever there's a lot of people crashing or living in her house.
''Here Nya. Everyone gets only one.'' She says handing everyone a baked cookie she made… and no more sense the last few batches were burned beyond repair. Naruto, however, tries to grab 3 but Ichi immediately slaps his hand as he yelps in pain. She gives him a glare as the spiky blond-headed shivers.
Winry smiles taking it just noticing Sonic and widens her eyes in shock biting down on her cookie.
''Is that a hedgehog or a small guy wearing a costume?'' She asks Al who chuckles nervously not sure how to put it but Ed did responding. ''Evolution Winry, evolution. Life finds a way.''
''Bingo!'' Sonic adds with a grin doing the gun finger.
Mustang eyes the group that they now referred themselves as Team Dragon Knight, pretty amazed to discover they fought Aizen of all people. Just thinking of that man pisses him off also thinking of Eli.
''You kids did well handling Aizen and his forces, including you too Fullmetal.'' The Colonel announces in a firm voice though praising the small alchemist. Ed just smirks getting the treatment he deserves while Yugi questions him. ''So you knew about him then Mustang-kun?''
Mustang nods to the young man's question adding. ''Your father's connection goes deep to almost everyone present here, in one way or another.''
Yugi oddly smiles having discovered that much from Urahara and what Naruto told him that Kakashi knew of Aizen too.
''I guess you're not here to thank us or something.'' Judai then questions him, also able to tell there's more than a mere thank you.
Mustang eyes him and then the group before replying. ''I am actually but you're not wrong, there is another reason I'm here besides bringing Elric's Mechanic here.''
Ed nods firmly as he's being operated by Winry attaching the new Automail limbs on him. He can tell these were new but he also needs them to have some kind of protection too.
''Is this metal good enough to withstand heat?'' Edward asks her causing Winry to give him a look. She had to find the best material under a budget and time spam to even arrive to this strange place but nice, advanced city away from the countryside she's more familiar with.
''The best I can afford though this isn't cheap stuff Ed.'' She answers giving him a look like she's getting paid. Ed nods eyeing towards Mustang and asks. ''Colonel, you mind?''
Mustang rolls his eyes seeing that coming responding. ''Yea-yea, but it's coming out of your bill.''
Ed rolls his eyes already aware of it. He then got an idea remembering that weirdo of a shopkeeper that was a Soul- Shinigami, whatever. He turns towards the orange-headed Ichigo and asks. ''Hey Carrot-Top, you think that shopkeeper has metal to reinforce Automails?''
Kurosaki was about to reply but Mustang beats him to it with a small smirk. ''Knowing Kisuke he might have just that.''
''I agreed?'' The orange-headed Ichigo utters almost stun with an equal stunned expression. Mustang hums a bit recalling how simple the past was, remembering his journey with Eli and the others. Those were something else, good times and how desires to become the future Fuhrer grew.
''We know each other well.'' He answers with a smirk recalling how socially awkward Kisuke was with others at first.
Yugi blinks curious what he's thinking, questioning him again. ''So what's the other reason you're here Mustang-kun?''
Mustang eyes the tricolor head and knows the kid isn't dumb or easy to trick. So he tells him honestly why he came. Yugi and others hear him explain his reasons and they were left pretty well overwhelmed.
''WHAT?!'' Yugi and everyone all yell at the same time, except Sonic who blinks surprise. Mustang nods as did Hughes and Hawkeye.
Yugi just stares disbelieve as did Atem in spirit form, trying to repeat what he told him. ''Y-you want me to help stop a war?!''
This was where Jonouchi yells at the Colonel in an outrages voice, pointing his finger aggressively. ''WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU! Yugi is a lot of things and right now a superhero but even a hero can't stop a war between opposing countries!''
Ichi just stares speechless and astonished that Jonouchi knows that… and also on the war part.
''Out of everyone who would have said that, I didn't expect you would say those words.'' She says pretty astonished by the dirty blond colored headed. Jonouchi coughs almost like a wise man as he expresses somewhat proudly. ''I'm a common man Momomiya… and also I played a lot of war games… losing them a lot.''
''Ditto.'' Danny replies from the other side struggling to beat a level in the game though this news shook up his gaming.
Mustang now coughs getting everyone to eye him as he resumes. ''Regardless, I need the Dragon Knight and his group-''
''Team Dragon Knight to you!'' Sonic points out winking at Jonouchi who nods firmly. Mustang just eyes them and corrects him. ''Yes well, I need Team Dragon Knight to stop this war.''
''Between who Colonel?'' Alphonse asks nicely. The Colonel eyes him and it's Hawkeye who reveals it. ''Gallia and the Imperial Empire.''
Ed blinks recalling that name before. Yugi mutters questionable. ''Gallia?''
''It's the sister country of Artemis though we've been well in the worst of terms with them.'' Hughes happily explains though he sweat drops recalling the last time their military ever assisted Gallia it didn't end in great terms.
Edward snaps his fingers now remembering. He's read many books, one of which was being part of the State Military and its history. Much like Artemis having wars, its sister country Gallia has its share and in fact one continues to go on. Artemis once tried to help them but Gallia refused their help about religious beliefs or some crap about it. He then asks to the Colonel. ''I thought they refused any help from Artemis?''
''And they still do but the war has become… worst.'' Mustang responds rather unease. Ed didn't buy it saying. ''PFF. How bad can it be other than the enemy having their own Alchemist?''
Mustang gives a look at Hughes who sighs. He reaches out with his right hand into his coat and pulls out a few photos. Ichi giggles hoping those are new poses of his daughter… it was far from it. Placing them on the table, the group eyes them and widens their eyes at what they were looking at.
''This is what remained of the large force of Gallia a few weeks ago.'' Mustang explains pointing on the photos which show the hundreds of dead Gallia solders in bloody, torn apart piles. The expressions everyone had on were of horror with Ichi almost going to throw up.
''T-they've been all-'' Kurosaki begins uttering out both angry and yet terrified. Before he could complete the rest of his words Mustang shows another photo revealing the ones who did this inhuman act. ''By these. Your blue hedgehog friend might know them.''
Sonic raises an eyebrow looking at the photo. Besides the dead soldiers and their tanks, there were also strange robots too doing the acts. They had similar appearance to that of Mecha Sonic, especially from the red visor eye, as well as other unique features from Eggman's robots he's fought and beaten but they all look very un-Egghead.
''They do look like Egghead's bots but something is off with them. Not so much Eggman style honestly.'' The blue hedgehog confirms with a look as if they do remind him of something but he can't tell why eyeing at the strange chest pieces each robot had… almost like he's seen it before.
Mustang nods as he resumes explaining the situation. ''The enemy, the Imperial Empire, had been always having an upper hand for most of the war however that changed when these things appeared exactly a few weeks ago.''
Yugi and the others eye each other wondering if this was Dark Leader Dragon's doing. He has Eggman on his side so it only makes sense.
''And sadly what you kids are looking at aren't us making them look menacing, they slaughter all of the Gallia army but the last small 10% they have of soldiers, less now most likely.'' Hughes adds with a grim tone not happy about it. The group gulps to hear that, almost shocking to believe an army would be reduced to so little.
''T-that's insane.'' Naruto mutters not sure any of them can believe that. Judai nods as he asks somewhat discomfort to ask. ''Were there any survivors?''
Mustang sighs not sure with Hawkeye answering. ''Captured or worst killed for information. At the moment, Gallia has no leaders.''
''…'' Everyone is left in silence, even Winry who's trying to focus on her job then freak out about this.
Ichi gulps shivering to ask but does. ''W-why us though Nya?''
''King Bradley requested it.'' Mustang tells them somewhat distasteful. Yugi raises an eyebrow able to tell he's not at all happy towards this Bradley person. Ed scoffs muttering not surprise. ''Figures as much the Fuhrer would want us.''
Jonouchi blinks having recalled that name before. It took him seconds to realize it, widening his eyes and letting out a panicking voice. ''… Fuhrer?! LIKE-''
Ed panics and immediately protests it is not the same Fuhrer this world had years ago. ''N-NO! It's not what you think! Different-different!''
Jonouchi sighs hoping that's the case. They don't want to be involved with a conqueror that is racist to everyone who's different than him. Mustang ignores their conversation turning towards Yugi and tells him resuming. ''You can turn it down though but if you help us, Artemis will return the favor and people will know of Team Dragon Knight more.''
Yugi thinks about it calmly. Jonouchi questions that logic by pointing out very emotional. ''Okay, I say no because IT'S A F**KING WAR!''
Everyone eyes the other also not sure about this, except Sonic who lives on the challenge.
''Maybe we should ask Yugi first? After all, he is the leader.'' Danny suggests since their team name comes from the title the tricolor head possesses. Everyone else soon agrees eyeing Yugi who is still thinking in deep thought.
Reminded of that girl and her bread as well as her desire to stop the fighting when he was in that dream-like state in the Dragon Sword, Yugi already made up his mind.
''I'll do it.'' The tricolor head declares with a calm, determined face. Everyone startles, even Mustang just ever so slightly.
''NYA?!'' Ichi shouts shock that she heard that right. Jonouchi also snaps yelling nervously for the sanity of his best friend. ''ARE YOU INSANE YUGI! Is this about Anzu leaving that you made a terrible mistake with Momomiya.''
The red pigtail Ichigo makes a grim glare as her foot oddly stretching. Jonouchi gulps shivering as he backs away.
Yugi nods to his responds stating.''No, it's something someone told me of her dream to be a baker.''
Judai blinks confuse by the dream part as did everyone else.
''How can I with the powers I possess not try something and do right for the people who need a hero?'' Yugi explains thinking of what he's done so far as the Dragon Knight and it makes him realize he wants to continue helping others, even if it seems wrong to others for him to think of others than himself. He then resumes saying what he thought out loud. ''I want to be my own Dragon Knight and as much as this seems selfish of me… I want that to be known to all including to the one who remarked it as a sin.''
The others eye him not sure by the sin part. Yugi frowns referring that to Sir Dragonaun and hoping he was listening to those words too. He wants to understand why he thinks a Dragon Knight is a path of death and why he's against him being one.
''Yugi-kun.'' Ichi mutters worrying with the look he had on his face. Yugi eyes her and the rest of his team, telling him honestly. ''I'll go but you guys don't have to come. I can never forgive myself if all of you get hurt because of me. So those who want to remain here, do so.''
''…'' Silence only echoes in the room as everyone is not sure to go through with Yugi's offer. They can either go with him and fight a situation far from their understanding or gasp to fix or not, until one voice spoke. ''I'm coming Nya.''
Yugi startles eyeing his cat girl eyeing him back smiling. No sign of doubt, Ichi expresses her reason. ''I don't know anything about war but if Yugi-kun is going to do what he can, then I will too Nya! After all, I love him Nya.''
The tricolor head blushes red as he could hear his heart beating hard.
''I'll never become the next Hokage if I can't save people and help my friends! I'm also in!'' Naruto declares adamant going to help Yugi too. Judai chuckles agreeing as he proclaims energetic. ''Yugi-san needs a whole lot of help and I got his support.''
Kurosaki sighs not able to say no to being needed as he speaks up. ''If I can protect those who need help, then I'm willing to go too.''
Sonic nods grinning not surprise he likes these guys a lot calling out excited for the next challenge. ''Since Egghead is behind this, I'm not backing away from this.''
''Well… AS HIS BEST FRIEND, I will go with Yugi too!'' Jonouchi suddenly shouts not going to let Momomiya take all the credit and also he's more important than her to Yugi's eyes.
''Tucker.'' Danny tries to say to his best friend that he too should help his team out but after knowing how much responsibilities and duties he has, Tucker immediately understands replying. ''I know dude, but I really wanted to win this too.''
Danny nods feeling the same. This would be their chance to be legends… no, maybe they can still be.
''We can try that PDA you made.'' Danny suggests recalling a crazy invention Tuck made that could help them right now. Tucker's eyes start sparkling out of joy with Danny and Sam sweat dropping.
Ed sighs astonished by Yugi and the others, willing to risk their lives to help people they knew NOTHING about. He couldn't help but smile since they're not soldiers.
Winry smiles seeing his expression just attaching his automail arm. Clinching its metal hand tightly into a fist, Ed vows firmly. ''Well I am the dog of the military. That and I can't accept these many deaths either! Mustang, you got Team Dragon Knight's help!''
Yugi nods as did everyone else of the team to do their best. Mustang couldn't help but nod happy to hear that.
Honda, Otogi and Bakura sweat drop hoping they're not making a mistake and don't get hurt or worst.
Team Dragon Knight has accepted a dangerous mission. Can they complete it?
Commercial Break:
Ed: Great, another crazy adventure.
Sonic: Alright! Time to stop a war! Never expected to say that.
The following day arrived as Yugi hums waiting in the train station, just not the one he would normally take.
Yugi was the first to arrive, waiting for the others. He had on an outfit that was similar to his Domino High School uniform except violent for the jacket and pants. He has on purple colored shoes with the Millennium Puzzle hanging around his neck and the Dragon Sword on his left waist. He hums sitting patiently.
''Yugi!'' A voice calls out as the tricolor head turns to see Jonouchi walking over with Honda, Otogi and Bakura sweat dropping. The tricolor head makes a face seeing his best friend wear if not cosplay Indian Jones or adventurer outfit with hat, coat and all; even a whip.
''Indian Jones much Jonouchi-kun?'' Yugi asks taken back by his outfit. Jonouchi lets out a laugh stating proudly on his look. ''Nonsense, I look good!''
Yugi just chuckles nodding that he does look cool. Jonouchi grins happy he thinks so.
"Sorry you three couldn't come with us.'' Yugi tells the others wishing they came along but they said they wouldn't want to get in the way… that and war.
''We're surprise that Colonel allow Jonouchi.'' Honda states kinda amazed. Jonouchi grins going to explain he's that good but Otogi theorizes. ''Maybe he doesn't want to be responsible for the deaths of multiple civilians?''
The dirty colored blond headed makes a stun expression, not needed to put two and two together that he's expendable. He tries to shake that thought and announces somewhat nervous that there's a benefit out of this. ''I-I don't care because we get passes out of school, not missing that chance!''
Yugi sweat drops not sure that's a great deal since they'll be missing homework too and that would mean they'll be forced to do it when they come back.
''Boy is skipping school great!'' The group blinks turning to see Judai approaching them with a grin saying that. With him is Naruto also grinning and Kurosaki with a grumpy face never meeting a guy who doesn't like school even after graduating from it in the future.
''I'M HERE NYA!'' Shouting excitedly Ichigo arrives, wearing a pink cat-theme hoodie with pink skirt, with a fully automail limb Ed, wearing his usual outfit as well as a rebuilt Al behind him.
''We're here kitty cat.'' Edward corrects the cat girl as she shouldn't think of herself so important. Ichigo hisses angrily towards him yelling at him. ''DON'T START WITH ME NYA!''
"Edward-kun, you sure you can you know?'' Yugi, sweat dropping, asks the young alchemist with concern in his voice about the new automail limbs. Ed eyes him and smirks nodding. He stretches a bit before answering him while clinching his new automail arm. ''Winry is annoying but she's the best Automail maker I know. These limbs are ready, set and go to fight!''
The tricolor head nods, smiling able to tell Ed was in a better mood now. Edward was a good mood, better than ever able to move and do stuff thanks to his new automails. Winry told him these should resist some heat, not 100% but good to be useful. Against the likes of the Dark Lord or another enemy that uses fire base attacks like those Espadas' laser beams, he has no choice.
''So where is the-'' Kurosaki tries to question about the mechanic but he got his answer in a heart-attack as Winry shouts from behind the group surprising them. ''I'M ALSO HERE TOO!''
Ed grunts with Al sweat dropping as the two brothers had asked Winry not to come with them but she assisted in coming regardless.
''So you're coming?'' Naruto asks puzzled. Winry just smirks very confident explaining herself while giving a glare at Edward. ''OH I'M COMING… because I don't trust Ed in keeping my new babies from getting destroyed.''
''SAYS YOU!'' Ed shouts angrily that he's not to be blamed for when the automails break or something.
"Guess this trip will be more exciting.'' Yugi blushes turning to see Sonic next to him stating that as he ate a chili dog. He nods asking out loud. ''Is everyone here?''
''HERE.'' Everyone looks up to see Danny landing in his ghost form. Winry freaks out as Danny reverts in his human form, having a traveling bag and a strange PDA that was more like a combination of a portable console game but a smartphone with a mini dish antenna attached on the top.
''Ready to help and going to beat Doomed ULTRA too!'' Danny declares very energetic as he focuses in pressing buttons in the weird device. Kurosaki made a face not sure what to describe that.
''With that?'' Otogi questions just as disturb. Danny nods explaining it. ''This is Tucker's Super PDA that can actually play games online but better!''
Everyone gives each other a look not sure how better that thing looks. Looks like a thing that shouldn't be created like a Frankenstein's monster.
The group waits for Mustang to appear with Hughes and Hawkeye, confirming whose coming.
''Guess we're ready to-'' The Colonel begins to say as they're ready to depart until a voice yells out. ''WAIT!''
Everyone turns and Yugi immediately startles up. Appearing on all fours, Jenny arrives panting a bit. She was wearing an orange top with thin jacket and short pants with boots on while carrying a backpack.
''Nee-san!'' Yugi utters out terrify to see her here. Jenny gets on all twos giving him a firm gaze. He gulps pretty sure why she's man, besides him going. It was she wasn't home when he prepared to head out and told his grandfather to tell her where he's going.
''Um I guess Jiji told you I was leaving.'' He guessed pretty sure he told her the moment she returned home early. Jenny nods, sensing something off with her Mew powers and demanded her grandfather where Yugi was and he happily, well scared too, but happily told her where he's going.
''Yes and I am very upset you didn't tell me first woof!'' She scolds the tricolor head almost like he was a child. Yugi blushes not arguing with her trying to explain himself. ''I-I know but we're in a hurry.''
Jenny just gives him a glare. The others didn't bother getting in the middle all pretty scared what the older Mutou sibling might do to them.
She hums thinking about it and makes her decision with a small smirk. ''Well then good thing I'm coming too!''
''HUH?!'' Yugi utters out extremely awe to hear that as did the others.
Jenny just nods firmly about it. Even though she respects her brother for being stronger than herself, he is still HER little brother and as the older sibling; she has to be there for him in any shape or form. And since he's going to ''stop'' a war, it's a best bet to go along.
''I already asked Ichigo-kun and she was fine with it woof.'' She states causing Yugi to turn to his girlfriend smiling and yet shivering like a leaf.
''I did because she worries greatly for her little brother Nya.'' Ichigo explains her in a slightly shaken cheerful tone. Jenny nods smiling unaware Ichigo whispers into Yugi's ear. ''And she scares me a lot Nya.''
Yugi blushes nervously understanding his girlfriend.
''So I'm coming too… unless you don't want me woof?'' Jenny asks with a sinister gaze towards her little brother. Yugi gulps pretty sure saying no to her is going to get him a hit from her pan. That… and maybe having another Mutou would help in some way in ending this war, maybe.
"I would like you to come, please?'' Yugi begs of her kindly not once sounding scared. Jenny blinks but smiles replying with a smile. "Good!''
"Well then...'' Mustang begins to say so they can head out but he's interrupted by Ed asking him. "You're not coming Colonel?''
Trying hard not to grunt, Mustang responds pretty energetic, though weak. ''Oh I intend to! The same goes for my Lieutenant and Major Hughes. And well one more.''
"One more?'' Danny questions rather puzzle. Ed and Al eye each other and soon both brothers panic just realizing who that can be.
''Oh crap! Please tell me it is not-'' Edward begins saying, actually scared, but he didn't get the chance to finish as everyone hears a laugh above them, sounding very manly. ''HAHAHA!''
Before they look up to see who's laughing something crashes hard behind them, scaring the pants off Kurosaki and Jonouchi, both yelling. ''WHAT THE HELL?!''
The group watches as a figure emerges from the dust and HUGE. With the exception of Edward and those from Artemis, the rest of Team Dragon Knight drops their jaws by this person's appearance.
''Under the line of bravery and pride, I have come to help Young Elric and his brother once more! Under the word of the great Armstrong generation, I have appeared!'' The figure, revealing to be a remarkably large man unlike any of the group as every seen before. Not only that but he had the most muscle, sculpted and well-built body none of them has seen before. Jonouchi, Honda and Otogi felt rather unease by this man's superior male body. Other than his perfect male body, the older man had a bald head with the exception of single lock of curly of blond hair hanging from just above his brow. He has thick eyebrows as well as a manly blond handlebar mustache, oddly finding his mouth but not his strong chin. Ichi, just noticing it, spots that even though this guy is way more of a man than even all the boys combined, he has a rather cute set of blue, kind eyes similar to Yugi's with long eyelashes.
''YEA-YEA, I HEARD YOU!'' Ed, very unimpressed though shaking, calls out at the large titan like no big deal. Alphonse chuckles nervously by his brother's confidence or stubbornness.
''W-who the hell is this weirdo?!'' Kurosaki questions still taken back by this guy's muscles, way too huge to even call them real.
"BUT HIS MUSCLES ARE AWESOME!'' Naruto shouts out energetic never seen such muscles before so shiny. Judai hums reminded of Kugemaru when he regained his youth through the Sacred Beasts…
Judai suddenly blinks turning towards Yubel and asks her telepathically. ''You still have them?''
''Sadly I lost them when we fused. Not sure where they might be but I doubt they're in anyone's hands.'' Yubel answers her partner actually forgotten the three Phantasmas were a thing. Judai hums hoping that's the case. He wouldn't be thrilled to face those demons again.
Coughing to get everyone's attention, Mustang speaks. ''This is Major Armstrong, a comrade of ours.''
Armstrong finds himself embarrassed as he was excited to see the brothers and meet their friends that he forgot he was there. He quickly covers himself wearing his standard State Military jacket and immediately apologizes to the Colonel. ''Sorry for my actions Colonel.''
Mustang just lets out a sigh nodding.
''You may all call me Alex Louis Armstrong, trustworthy comrade to the Elric Brothers!'' The giant as Major Armstrong introduces himself rather cheerful patting the shoulders of Ed and Al.
Edward grunts not liking to be treated as such as he tells them. ''Ignore him most of the time.''
"HOW DID YOU GET THOSE MUSCLES!'' Naruto immediately asks with stars shining from his eyes. Armstrong lets out a chuckle able to see the passion in the young man's eyes.
''Ah hahaha, I see you are impressed with the strength passed down to the Armstrong family!'' He tells the blond spiky headed who nods rapidly and replies. ''You bet! They're HUGE!''
Yugi and the others sweat drop amazed Naruto likes that. Mustang sighs again ordering them as their train arrives. ''Anyway, inside the train.''
The group turns and startles except those from Artemis. It was one of those old locomotive trains running on steam and coal.
''WHY IS THE TRAIN OLD?!'' Jonouchi yells not at all happy to step in one of those things. The others didn't have much of a choice stepping inside. The dirty colored blond headed sighs lowering his head in shame following them too except Sonic who leaps up over the train.
Honda, Otogi and Bakura wave goodbye to the group as their transport runs off with them inside. Jonouchi waves back going to miss them. He lets out a sigh sitting next to Yugi with Ichi sadly on the other side of their passenger sit grumpy, really wanting to sit next to Yugi.
The whole group manages to fit pretty well in just one passenger car than two.
The train runs though not as fast as Jonouchi hope, grunting that their modern trains would race around this slowpoke.
Ed sits in the same table with his brother on his side and the Colonel plus the Lieutenant on the other side.
''Didn't brought the rest of your team Colonel?'' Edward asks Mustang about the rest of his group. Mustang eyes the squirt as they would be handy for this mission but he needs them back in State Military in case of… information.
''I need them for other stuff in Artemis so no.'' He responds to Ed's question calmly.
''And they could get themselves hurt against what awaits us Colonel.'' Hawkeye adds with a firm look. Mustang eyes her back and didn't reply. He instead thinks about the blue flames of an enemy they will encounter in the battlefield and hoping their luck is better than last time.
''That too.'' Mustang states in a mysterious tone, leaving Ed curious.
''By the way, why is he up there?'' Hughes changes the subject pointing up. Ed looks up as they all saw Sonic didn't go inside the train but lay on his back in the roof.
''Sonic-kun likes the fresh air.'' Yugi responds overhearing them with a small smile. Much like he said, Sonic is enjoying himself in the roof of the train, enjoying the air while napping.
Ed sighs kinda wishing that Ultimate Lifeform of a hedgehog was among the group. At least with stopping time and blowing things up would be easier for them.
Mustang can tell the young Alchemist was concern but he ensures him pretty confident. ''For once Fullmetal, there's nothing to be worried about, probably. Best be safe no?''
''Says the Alchemist who can light up and burn a tongue.'' Hughes states playfully teasing his good friend. Mustang gives him a shaken death glare, muttering annoyed. ''S-shut up Hughes.''
Ichigo hums giving Yugi a look, winking at him with an almost sexy face. Yugi blushes red, reading her face and nods. The two quietly excuse themselves and walk to the next cars over. Jenny notices them leave and just smirks reading her book. It's going to be a long trip so they should enjoy themselves.
4 Hours Later…
Naruto drools sleeping heavily in his chair as was Judai, having on fake eye glasses as the two slept heavily. Everyone else tries to do something other than sleeping with Danny heavily focus on the game and not doing well; Sam was killing him and Tucker multiple tries without stopping.
Kurosaki watches him rather astonished he can even play an online game where they're at this point far from any city with technology or signals in the middle of a forest.
''How the hell do you still have Internet with that thing?'' He questions Danny pretty dumbstruck. Danny eyes the orange headed Ichigo and makes a face like trying to remember the logic of Tucker's invention and how he explained it to him that even he doesn't know how to put it in simple words, like physically or mentally.
''Explaining this would be too hard right now. Let's just say not even a deserted island can't stop this thing from getting a single.'' Danny replies did remembering how Tucker muttered the nightmare that the Fright Knight put him in.
''I would ask if I can use that to look in my email but I rather not ruin Danny and Tucker's chance to BEAT that stupid game.'' Jonouchi mutters extremely bored, kinda wishing he asked Judai for a duel… then again the guy would beat him pretty hard, who knows; better than this boredom.
Danny lets out a chuckle getting Jonouchi's dislike on Doomed pointing out. ''Don't feel bad, Sam's that good.''
Jonouchi just nods reminded how Chaos didn't just dismantled his character but reset him back to Level 1 with a broken combo. LIKE HOW?! Sighing, he looks around and that's when Jonouchi realizes something off.
''Where's Yugi anyway?'' He asks out loud not seeing his best friend anywhere. Judai blinks looking around and no sign of Yugi, in fact, no sign of him or the pigtail Ichigo. He also questions rather surprise. ''Huh? Ichi-chan isn't around either.''
Jenny didn't say a word still reading her book, just smirking that those two are doing… stuff together, though she EXPECTS him to use the damn protection or else.
Naruto slowly stirs up yawning. He blinks very exhausting looking out the window. He stares at a certain direction, slowly forming a chuckle as he announces. ''Oh neat, tanks!''
Edward raises an eyebrow standing on his chair looking behind him where the idiot was, questioning him suspicious. ''Wait tanks?''
He gets up his chair walking towards Naruto's sit who points outside from a faraway direction towards them.
''Yea. Over there and-'' Naruto begins explaining but he's stopped halfway through noticing something very wrong. Ed did too not by the tanks themselves but also the mere fact from the view he has on them they were NOT moving on the ground but hovering.
Judai spots them and utters with a stun expression. ''F-floating tanks…''
''Aiming at us…'' Ed mutters seeing them pointing their cannons at them. Danny looks up taken back with a startling expression. Everyone soon turn around towards the window, watching as the tanks glow bright on the cannon holes.
''…'' Everyone, in silence, all stare at this for sure those tanks are going to kill them all.
''FULLMETAL!'' Mustang yells ordering him to do his thing. Ed didn't need to be told twice clapping his hands together as sparks of electricity fly between them.
''I GOT IT!'' He shouts back louder about to slam his hands on the ground but then the train is suddenly blasted from the front by a destructive beam of energy, tipping it upward. Everyone inside is sent flying upward screaming. ''WAAAAA!''
Not having a choice but to act, Danny has to do something shouting in midair. ''I'M GOING GHOST!''
It was fast as a white ring appears around Danny's chest and splits from top to bottom, transforming him into his Ghost form. Danny quickly duplicates into 4 of himself, grabbing as many of his friends and comrades, even the conductor and his crew. Each clone including himself turns intangible as well as everyone they were holding on. The train tips and crashes hard, exploding instantly. Everyone else was unscratched as Danny puts everyone behind the torn pieces of the train. The conductor and his crew scream running away. Danny pants as his clones all went back inside the original as he breathes heavily.
''Yea… you're welcome.'' The ghost boy utters, out of air, having both hands on his thighs.
Mustang just stares pretty much taken back by all what just happened. He had a somewhat doubt about most of the abilities he was told of by Yugi's comrades like a ghost boy but now that has changed GREATLY.
''I-I should apologize you now Edward for not believing you about your friends'… unique powers.'' Mustang tells Ed pretty astounded by Danny's performance. Ed cracks a smirk telling him alright. ''Told you.''
Winry drops her jaw, on her knees, completely dazed what's even happening now.
''HE BECAME WHAT NOT?! HOW DID WE PASS THROUGH THAT TRAIN?! HOW ARE WE NOT DEAD! WHAT'S HAPPENING!'' Winry questions very loudly losing her mind. Kurosaki sighs not sure how to explain it.
Appearing out of thin air, Yugi stands in front of the others carrying Ichigo in a bridal style, both very easily shock that they manage to escape the train before it crashes.
''W-WHAT THE HECK HAPPEN NYA?!'' Ichi screams yelling out of her mind as she, Yugi and everyone else were going to die moments ago. Naruto tries uttering not so sure but Ed did yelling it out as he points ahead. ''W-we're under attack!''
Yugi and Ichi turn and startle up seeing hovering tanks with soldiers and flying robots, the very same they saw in those photos, coming towards them as they fire their weapons. Edward reacts fast slamming his hand and transmutes a large wall, protecting the group from the bullets and most of the laser beams which pierce ever so slightly through the wall.
''WHERE WERE YOU TWO ANYWAY?!'' Jonouchi yells out of his mind that they were all going to be dead moments ago. Yugi and Ichi blush embarrassed trying not to show their clothes looked like they were put on moments ago, not wanting anyone to know they were doing… couple stuff.
''Counting sheep.'' The two lied sounding very honest about it. Appearing as a blue blur, Sonic appears unscratched since he heard the blast in his sleep and actually evaded it before he was blasted.
''Me too!'' The Blue Hedgehog declares with a small grin.
Jonouchi hums suspicious since he didn't notice any sheep outside… or maybe on the other side? At the any rate VERY suspicious.
Jenny looks ahead and calls out to the group. ''Um everyone.''
They turn to face her noticing up ahead the tanks were firing again. They quickly take cover with the debris of the train just barely as even the metal of the train is melted through by smaller energy beams. Ed pokes his head
''Let me guess, that's this Imperial Empire's new toys huh?'' Ed asks Mustang somewhat impressed. Judai pokes his head and pulls back fast evading a bullet from Imperial Soldiers also coming at them as well as the flying robots.
''Theres a lot of them!'' Hawkeye shouts pulling out her gun and firing back not getting a clear shot from the beams also trying to kill them.
Jonouchi shivers really expecting this to happen and he was still not prepared for this.
''What do we do Yugi?'' Kurosaki asks trying to be the sane one turning towards the one guy who's basically their leader.
Yugi eyes him and then the others, nodding that he has to step up for his friends or else they'll all be dead.
''They may be able to tear through trains and other stuff, but we got an advantage; us!'' The tricolor head proclaims determined. Ichi nods grabbing tightly on her Mew Pendant Necklace but before she activates it her cat ears picked up new movement coming from behind.
''Yugi-kun!'' Ichi yells pointing at the direction where she can hear the footsteps. Yugi, blinking, questions surprise. ''More enemy forces?''
''Not exactly.'' Mustang states rather relaxed. A tank bullet shoots out from the forest and hits one of the non-advanced tanks, destroying it instantly. Charging out from the forest was a lone tank with multiple soldiers coming, almost the large percent of them being younger than the enemy, charging into the battlefield.
Ed watches them noticing their blue, red color scheme certain these were Gallia Soldiers having seen the uniform in one of many books he had read.
''Those are Gallia forces? How they found us so-'' Ed begins telling the group but he stops recalling what Mustang just said earlier and widens his eyes angrily turning towards him accusing him. ''YOU KNEW!''
The Colonel just smirks pretty certain they would be attacked while coming here so best informed their allies where they'll be in advanced.
''Best be cautious. Besides, we were about to reach our stop anyway.'' The Colonel informs them truthfully. Ed grunts not at all happy they were told they would be attacked along the way.
''T-thanks Nya?'' Ichigo hesitately thanks the Colonel though not so much convinced. Yugi nods eyeing their allies but one of them caught his eyes, actually leaving him frozen up.
Rushing pass them, kneeling down and blasting off the visor eye of one of the robot's with an old sniper gun is a woman with determine brown eyes. The other eyes her especially Yugi with a shocking expression.
That brown hair in pigtails wearing that red bandanna; it was her, it was the same girl Yugi met that day. No doubt about it, but she looks older, at least older than him in her 20s and she's wearing some kind of winter-like, greyish blue military outfit with red stripes and a uniform-type chest with a small red tie.
''That girl, she's the same!'' The tricolor head tells himself mentally, really stun to think he'll meet her again… though he wonders, was that girl just a fragment of his imagination or does she remember him. He does know one thing; he has to worry about the crossfire he and the others were in first.
It seems Yugi's quiet days have just ended as he and Team Dragon Knight have entered another new world and a new fight. Can they beat a war like this?
To be continued…

Ichi grumps: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time… I don't want to die Nya.
Author's Note: Much like I explained in Chapter/Episode 43 of Volume 3, I changed Yubel's Dialogue to more than a mental talk so hers is bold and italic.
This was not one of my best like starts for a new Volume… I will say it'll get better for future Volumes? Expect something more exciting for Volume 5, 6 and 8.
Also happy I got to reveal some truth behind Yugi's ability in reading and sensing aura in the story as this subject will come up again in the near future.
EXTREMELY OFF TOPIC, I never read the Yu-Gi-Oh! Manga but I am aware of many things from it… what I wasn't would be the YEAR Yugi was born. I knew he was born in June 4th… but never did I imagine there was a year. Like most Anime Characters don't get years… unless you're a Jojo character and well… Yugi was born in 1980. Now I didn't know that and now I'm puzzled because I'm like not sure what to base the timeline as. I mean what am I supposed to do? I mean I can say the timeline is 1998 and its technology and everything else is MORE advanced thanks to Kaiba Corporation… and other places too. If I do this… then… how many of you would you like to see something Bizarre like Jojo in DKR? What I would be referring is Diamond is Unbreakable and POSSIBLY Aureo Vento. Who would like that? Leave your thoughts in this review or a PM. I might NOT do it due to how much I already have in my plate… but hehe, would that be fun. The Dark Lord could bring back the devil (yes… MUDA-MUDA-MUDA and WRYYY) and then it's like… oh s**t…
But after a talk with one of my fateful reviewers, Jacob9594, I will NOT use the manga year of anything due to the sole plot of what the heck am I supposed to do with Digimon Adventure (coming in Volume 6, spoiler). I cannot go into details with that BUT I WILL SAY THIS… Digimon Adventure Tri will appear in DKR but I will not say when or in what form. Just trust me when I say that the DKR timeline (as dumb as I will put it) has to be as perfect fit unlike Yugi's year of birth sadly.
So… leave your thoughts what I should I do in your review and um… yea, see you all next time... in case I don't follow this, Jojo already has a place in a future sequel of DKR so don't worry about that.
