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 12: The Rising Dawn!
In the previous episode of DKR:
Now fully rested even after the Homunculi attacked, Team Dragon Knight and Squad 7 prepared to head out to take back Mulberry Coast though they will be facing a massacre against the Imperials having a perfect ground to destroy any who fights them. However Isara has a plan and Ed and Yugi helps her with the equipment.
But things only gotten worse when Mustang informed the group that the Alchemist Killer has enter Gallian. This shocked Ed angrily not expecting to deal with Scar here too. He assumed it will be pretty damn likely he'll arrive to Mulberry Coast and kill all the Alchemists he will spot. Not having an option, Yugi formed a plan to protect Ed and the other Alchemists when this Scar does appear.
The mission proceeded with Isara's smoke grenades coming in handy to blind the enemy and bring the battle closer to Gallia's victory especially with both Mew Ichigo and Mew Plum going into the frontlines and dismantling the enemy with ease… but then appeared Scar to kill the Alchemists and anyone foolish enough to cross him and Yugi stood in his way with the others of Team Dragon Knight.
Yugi, being the pacifistic type, tried to ask why Scar is doing this only for the serial killer to protest that much like before another with that sword would stop him from his vengeful purge. Trying not to become stun that his father met this man before, Yugi demanded why go after Ed then. Scar only replied that he had an unease score with the brothers and their sinful act. This enraged the young Dragon Knight as he and the others had no choice but to fight him and his Destructive Alchemy.
But while this was happening, Isara saved Rosie from an enemy only for another to point their weapon at her back. A shot is heard and everyone else freezes up what had happened.
Has someone died? Find that out now!
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
While Squad 7 march within the smokescreen battlefield in Mulberry Coast, the majority of Team Dragon Knight engage in their battle against the sudden appearance of Scar, trying to kill Edward like any alchemist he hunts down to kill. Yugi and the others start to notice why the serial killer is this difficult and Edward's warning weren't just for show.
''Get him, Gearfried the Red-Eyes Iron Knight! Black Forearm Thrust!'' Jonouchi shouts joining the fight with his retrained Gearfried swinging his arm blade. Scar ducks it fast and thrusts his right arm into the monster's chest, obliterating it instantly into pieces.
''AW NO!'' Jonouchi yells not wanting that. Scar then charges forward towards Jonouchi, aiming for the chest but his right hand instead gets intercepted by Kurosaki's giant sword, blocking it. Sparks fly out but Zangetsu remain unscratched as Kurosaki bashes the serial killer back hard. Scar gasps as he suddenly receives two fists from Naruto and Danny and a palm strike from Yugi, slamming him back. Scar holds his ground refusing to fall though he pants spitting out blood.
Ed sighs of relief informing the group what just happened. ''Scar needs to confirm what he's destroying or else like you all saw, Kurosaki's sword was alright. Remember-''
''Yea-yea! You told us already the um steps to your Alchemy magic.'' Jonouchi interrupts getting the message after the numerous of times the young Alchemist told them about Alchemy nonsense. This snaps Ed shouting, hating the ''magic'' comment. ''NOT MAGIC! But yea, Scar only seems to follow the first two steps.''
''So he's all destruction then?'' Danny questions getting the fact that alchemy is about decomposing something to become something new. Edward nods having noticed this about the serial killer's powers since their first battle.
''Yea but he needs to recognize what he's deconstructing. If he doesn't, his alchemy won't work.'' Ed explains as Kurosaki did begin to notice how his Zanpakuto didn't blow up unlike how Yugi's sword did. Jonouchi grins at that drawing a card and declares. ''I got something alright. Come out Jinzo!''
Appearing on his side is the powerful energy android with its red visor eyeballs gazing upon the confused but firm Scar.
''Blast him Jinzo! Cyber Energy Shock!'' Jonouchi commands as his monster forms a sphere of electrical energy between his palms and fires it at Scar. The Ishvalan couldn't resist destroying whatever that was so he dodges it fast only for something to lock his feet as he dodged it.
''What?!'' Scar utters looking down and sees in shock as his feet were cuffed by what appears as hand cuffs but as mouths, each having a cartoon version of Ed's face. He looks up in shock as Ed, smirking, once more transmutes waves of spikes coming at him. Scar reacts fast swiping his right hand on the ground and instantly destroys the cuffs. He tries to move away from the spikes, barely evading them and getting a spike stabbing a bit of his right rib. Scar grits his teeth as he sees a shadow behind him. He turns only to see Yugi slamming his left fist at him and shouts. ''DRAGONAUN BURNING!''
The fist engulfs in dark blue fiery aura and hit hard onto the serial killer, slamming him not just onto the ground but actually flips his body like a rock thrown and skipping across the water.
''Yosh! Just a little more and-'' Naruto begins saying with a big grin on their victory only to get cut off as everyone heard a gunshot. This shocks the entire group turning around having heard that within the battlefield behind them.
It was then that the others notice the face the tricolor head had, trembling slightly.
''O-Oi who got shot?'' Kurosaki asks him but Yugi did not answer, only looking paralyzed. Judai becomes concern as he calls him out. ''Yugi-san?''
Ed grits his teeth not believing this. Scar, getting back up, scoffs at another pointless death proclaiming almost justified. "So someone else has died pointlessly.''
Everyone except Yugi turn back to face Scar as he says almost sadden yet angry at the cruel nature of humanity and war. ''This is why this world is unforgiving. Pointless war for the stake of land and power. Nonsense. This is the sin all humans have, one that they never learn to accept.''
They glare going to protest him except a voice speaks up. ''No.''
Scar raises his eyes towards Yugi who said that as he walks up slowly to be in front of the group. The young Dragon Knight, his front hair covering his eyes, frowns as he grips his hands tightly into a fist.
''This world is unforgiving because of people like you who stopped others from saving them. So then people would understand what's more important than causing more hate.'' Yugi expresses not going to allow him to continue hurting others. Scar glares annoyed as he speaks back charging at him. ''Then you should have not stood in my way, child!''
He comes at Yugi only for Scar to suddenly gasp out in pain as he gets slapped across the face so hard it sends him flying back. He startles looking ahead to see Yugi now right in front of him having swung his left hand to knock him back. The others watch as Yugi's body erupts in the red outline of Yin-Yang Dragon.
The tricolor gazes down at the serial killer with his calm but enrage red dragon eyes.
''You don't get it. I won't let you harm others. Your hate and rage won't heal the wounds in your heart! I will show you HOW weak hate is compare to bonds!'' Yugi proclaims raising his sword forward. Jonouchi watches almost surprised that Yugi is using Atem's words, almost sounding and looking like him.
Scar grits his teeth slamming his right hand on the ground and unleashes a burst of earth-like wave at the boy. Yugi didn't even reacted as he swings the Dragon Sword and fires a Dragon Slice Attack, tearing through the ground and the wave at the same time. Scar just charges swinging his right arm but Yugi blocks it with his sword with sparks flying out. The Ishvalan tries kicking him only for Yugi to evade easily and follows ducking another arm thrust.
''You continue to defend a sinner!'' Scar shouts swinging his right arm at full force towards him, aiming for his chest. Instead of dodging or moving away, Yugi catches and grabs Scar's right hand with his left hand. The Ishvalan frowns at the boy's poor choice as unleashes his destructive power, watching as Yugi's arm begins to be torn apart.
''YUGI!'' Ed shouts terrify he would do something so stupid.
Scar watches as the young man will die by this except it didn't happen. Instead he widens his eyes in horror as his body begins regenerating faster than his destructive alchemy was able to destroy it including the sleeve of his jacket. The serial killer staggers looking up to see Yugi's red dragon eyes glowing brighter, not believing he had regeneration abilities. This also surprised everyone even the Kyuubi within Naruto saw that, gazing angrily that Yin-Yang Dragon's connection to their host is that much stronger now.
''I'm a bigger sinner for the friends and people I will always protect.'' Yugi remarks his early statement with a small smirk swinging a swipe right kick across the Ishvalan's left rib. Scar gasps out as he's pushed away while Yugi twirls his body, a Dragon Clone appears behind the real Yugi and kicks Scar even further back actually breaking a bone or two.
Scar gasps again sliding backwards with both Yugi's dashing forward.
''That's why your hatred won't beat us!'' The young Dragon Knight declares proudly as the spirit of Atem floats beside him. He extends back his left hand as his Dragon Clone helps form a Dragon Rasengan in the original's palm. The real Yugi focuses as the energy of the attack changes into resembling almost like an x-shaped star with the dragon's face with dark blue sparks surrounding it.
''ULTRA DRAGON RASENGAN!'' Yugi roars thrusting his left arm forward. Scar tries to counter this time with his right hand, catching the sphere. Sparks fly between the two as Scar tries destroying the sphere but to his horror the energy sphere just expands even larger.
''HHAAAAA!'' Yugi roars putting more power to overcome even Scar's destruction alchemy. The Ishvalan panics as the attack now consumes him and explodes.
Scar screams sent flying slightly into the sky with traces of wind and flames left behind. Yugi pants a bit holding back that one unlike the times against the Mad King Ashnard and Aizen, just a bit.
''W-Woah…'' Naruto utters dumbstruck, really curious where or how Yugi came up with that Rasengan attack. Ed walks up to the tricolor head, wondering if he might have killed Scar.
''D-did you just… you know.'' He asks him stagger by what he witnessed. Yugi didn't say a word as his clone poofs into nothing as his red outline vanishes. Breathing calmly, Yugi finally answers Edward with his normal eyes. ''Nope, I made sure my attack won't fly him that far up and if he knows what he's doing, he'll use his powers to slow down his crash.''
Ed just stares at him almost both amazed and frightened by the guy. He says sweat dropping. ''Remind me to never piss you off.''
Yugi giggles a bit relaxing as he says. ''I know you won't Edward-kun. But, those with hatred in their hearts, they never win. I know this through my partner.''
Edward blinks but nods not going to forget. Atem smirks in spirit form eyeing his partner, having learn much especially during his fight against the aliens and even Ichigo's words of love.
Yugi blushes of relief stating about Jenny's decision. ''I'm just glad I sent him into the battlefield too like Nee-san said. Or else Isara-kun would have-''
"Wait-wait!'' Danny interrupts him as he tries asking shock from the early gunshot. ''The gunshot was for-''
"Yea, don't worry. She's okay.'' Yugi answers happy-going. They stare at him as the tricolor head puts away his sword and walks towards the battlefield, whistling. The group blinks dumbfounded, not having a choice but to follow their leader into the smokescreen battlefield.
Time seemingly froze as the Imperial Soldier, hidden behind a few boulders, fires a shot from his rifle towards the unexpected Isara. He didn't care if he's killing a child; a Darcsen are worthless and must be purge from this world is all he knows. Rosie heard the gunshot but she couldn't register it until it was too late. However, one person could rather easily.
Walking rather relax as the bullet comes at Isara very slowly, Sonic hums eyeing and grabs the flying bullet with just two mere fingers. Time wasn't frozen; Sonic was merely moving faster than light and sound that everything else around him is moving in slow motion. Ever since his battle against the bald weirdo Espada guy, Sonic trained with Tails and even Knuckles to move faster to the point he can see everything in slow motion, basically the term Bullet Time. However, this still caused him to move slightly slower. Still, it was better than nothing; best be prepared with a neat trick than none.
Sonic hums a bit standing still as time around him seems to run normally hearing Rosie screaming. ''I-ISARA!''
The red head turns and blinks awkwardly seeing Isara okay with just a freaked out expression also hearing the shot. They both then panic seeing the blue hedgehog next to them flipping the bullet he caught.
''Phew, close one huh?'' He tells the two still flipping the bullet like a coin. Isara eyes it and slowly widen her eyes, guessing that shot from a moment ago was that thing and it was probably aim at her. Even Rosie assumed that and mutters in shock. ''H-How?''
''I grabbed it. A trick I was working on.'' Sonic replies rather carefree to both girls' shocking expressions. He then just remembered something and them. ''Oh one moment.''
Sonic throws the bullet up high as he dashes with great speed, kicking the stunned soldier who was about to kill Isara across the face with so much force he drops on his back unconscious and dashes back just as the bullet falls back into the palm of his gloved hand.
''Now let's get back to the others, they might be worrying for you.'' Sonic declares wondering how the others are doing. Rosie just stares at him with a half open mouth. She tries to shake off following him except she stops turning. She sees Isara trembling with a frightened expression on her face.
''Isara?'' Rosie calls her out concerning. Isara oddly didn't hear that as she mutters, starting to cry. ''I-I almost…''
She couldn't control herself; she was close to death. Isara drops on her knees still crying stunned by what almost happened to her. Rosie frowns worrying for her as she reaches out with her hand.
''Come on, I'll help you.'' She tells the young Darcsen. Isara looks up and continues sobbing as she grabs and hugs Rosie by the legs, searching for comfort. Rosie frowns worrying as she does comforting her head. Isara still sobs hugging her closer.
They were reunited by Squad 7 while the rest of Team Dragon Knight gather back, sighing that there were no deaths on their side.
Miles away from the coast, Scar continues flying into the air slowly dropping. He didn't expect the boy with those eyes to be this strong actually beating him like a fly. The next time he ever fights him he must be more cautious if there was a next time.
He tries to do something to land since was near a tree. He was going to grab it and use his arm but then mysteriously an orange light engulfs him and he lands right on the ground. The Ishvalan startles already on his feet, brushing off the dirt off his coat finding himself in a strange forest.
''Where am I?'' Scar questions on where he was and how he was teleported on the ground without crashing and most likely torn apart, aside of the injury he received.
''On the ground my good sir.'' A voice answers him. Scar turns and startles seeing a young man sitting on a flat-like boulder. He was tanned with golden eyes and dark teal colored spiky hair with thin ponytails. Scar gazes upon the stranger and his strange clothes as well as the strange glowing orange cube. He notices how fixated the child was on the cube with a small smirk on his face but it was the opposite looking at him.
''Interesting, Yugi Mutou is a kind person even against the enemies he fights. He's a curious person.'' The one that fought Yugi before, Aigami proclaims mentioning the tricolor head almost as if they were friends.
Scar glares silently at this boy even more cautious. Aigami eyes him still holding his Quantum Cube as he says with a soft smirk. ''Not to going to ask who I am? How rude. Then again, you think of everyone as an enemy.''
''What are you?'' Scar demands not going to play his games. Aigami hops off from the boulder and tells him gazing upon the lost man. ''Let's say I'm someone recruiting people like you. Actually, you're the first. I have many to find.''
Scar glares confused by what he's even talking about and demands. ''For what?''
Smirking slightly, Aigami declares raising his arms on the sides as the Quantum Cube floats in front of him. ''For the end of this world and the rebirth of a grander world. No, a utopia.''
Scar glares not believing what he's selling. However Aigami smirks as the cube glows almost by his will. The surroundings around them start changing as Scar slowly widens his eyes as everything changed to resemble his home before the war. There were children playing and adults doing their work… and among them, Scar widens his eyes more to see his dead older brother. He gasps seeing him waving at him. He tries to approach him but then everything turns into small orange cubes and vanished back to reality.
''Ishvalan, I wish to create a new world and with your help I may be able to achieve my- no, our dreams.'' Aigami offers him a chance to get back what he lost. Scar rubs his face, still taken back what he saw. Was it real? Was there a chance to get them back? To get back the life he lost, to that man and his damn people.
Struggling, he remembers his right arm and the blood that was offered. No, he couldn't… not before he uses it to strike down his judgement.
''… I refused.'' Scar replies to Aigami's surprise. The lone Ishvalan eyes him and answers pulling up the sleeve of his right arm to reveal the forbidden Alchemy markings across it. ''I will not stop until I achieved my revenge for my people, and my brother.''
Aigami sighs oddly expecting that respond though he replies rather fine with it. ''So be it, but the offer stands until you want it. In fact, let me return you-''
''I don't need your help and do what you want.'' Scar answers harshly as he walks away. Aigami sees him leave, probably returning back to that land than to fight Team Dragon Knight. With the injuries he received including on his right arm, Scar has no choice but to re-strategize himself and the friends Fullmetal has made. As long as he has them, he must be more cautious.
Aigami sighs at him leaving though he knows he'll join forces, sooner or later. Walking out from behind a tree, Aigami's partner and basically a brother to him, Mani, reveals himself still wearing his shroud from before.
''Diva, that didn't turn out how we wanted.'' He says rather disappointed. They know they must assemble their group for the plan to work and their wish to come true.
''Why the worry, Mani?'' Aigami says rather relaxed. He smirks still holding the Quantum Cube, gazing upon it as if seeing through what it contains or rather what the future holds.
''I have all the time to get the pieces. Besides, I need to give him time to set his own pieces.'' He proclaims knowing they have plenty of time to achieve the endgame and gain everything in the end. Aigami, though, makes a slightly wide grin thinking of the so-called heroic Dragon Knight and what he said. Naïve but kind, Shadi wasn't wrong about him and he sees that.
''Yugi, unaware or not, you and I will achieve that utopia even if this world must come to an end.'' Aigami says to himself almost positive that their end goals will cross and then this corrupted world can cease to exist. He just needs to be a little bit more patient, just a little more.
What is Aigami planning and why does he still think Yugi is the key to his goals? Only time will tell for another time.
Commercial Break:
Ed: I have no complains with Yugi beating Scar. I just hope I don't cross paths with him again.
Sonic: I did a good thing today! Hope no one else is bother by it.
After arriving back to the base, Welkin immediately gives his report to Captain Varrot. Eleanor just stares at the young captain rather speechless about Isara close call with death and could see this has affected the young Gunther greatly with the look in his eyes.
"I see…'' She mutters while her hands on her desk. She looks up at him and tells him honestly. ''Welkin, I'm happy to hear your sister was right.''
''Y-yes.'' Welkin simply replies though rather sadden. She could tell he's still bother by his sister's close call with death. If she had died, he wouldn't be here or want to know about anything. They're all he has with his mother and father dead. She can understand that having lost people too.
''I can imagine the pain you would have gone if-'' Captain Varrot begins to say only for Welkin to interrupt her and asks. ''Captain, can I set the groups to head into Bruhl?''
This surprised the older woman not expecting his commander wishes to continue fighting even after what could have been the loss of his entire family. Either he wants to forget this moment to not confront or restore his hometown.
''Commander, I understand this is both important to you as well taking another major territory back but under what almost happened to Isara, it would be wiser if-'' Eleanor tries protesting his permission not wanting him to overdo it but Welkin once more cuts her off stating as if this meant the whole world to him with the most stern, non-frighten face. ''Captain, we need to take it back. Please.''
She sighs hearing him well and could tell he was serious about this however this was still too sudden even if this benefits in ending this war quicker.
''It's okay to be afraid of losing someone… the hard part is accepting it.'' Captain Varrot tells him to somehow open up by adding. ''If Isara did die, her heart would hearten and your life becomes nothing but torment.''
Welkin looks down at his feet, not wishing to admit that he might never be the same if Isara did die at that moment.
''You mustn't let those feelings cloud what's important. She's alive so use this chance to be happy with her.'' Eleanor says encouraging him to not forget and to not ignore this matter.
There was silence now as Welkin thinks hard and slowly replies to her words at last. ''… I'll rest at least until tomorrow.''
She sighs and accepts his offer. ''Fair enough.''
''Thank you!'' Welkin states bowing down and then walks out from her office. Captain Varrot sighs removing her glasses briefly hoping the young man gets well.
Welkin walks outside as he hears a voice calling him out. ''Hey commander!''
He blinks turning and sees the older member of his team, confused.
''Largo-san?'' Welkin mutters as Largo approaches him, tapping his shoulder and asks him with a small smirk. ''Mind if we chat.''
The young Gunther blinks but agrees to his offer. The two chatted as Welkin tells the older man of his worry of losing Isara and this caused him to realize how much he doesn't want to lose anyone, even mentioning Alicia among someone he refuses to ever lose.
''I see. I can't blame you commander for worrying about your sister but also your uneasiness to lose someone, especially Alicia right?'' Largo states now able to get why his commander is like this other than his sister. This is the first time he feels compel to not lose anyone again.
Welkin nods admitting his want to protect Alicia, even as far as admit he cares greatly for her but he's not sure she feels the same for him.
''Yes, but I feel like she prefers Faldio and-'' He tries saying doubting his chance against his own best friend but Largo interrupts him adding looking back at the main military building. ''I understand how you feel commander; I do more than you think.''
Welkin blinks looking at his direction and startles a bit that he's staring at the window of Captain Varrot's office. He looks back at Largo and assumes very surprise. ''I didn't know you and Captain Varrot were-''
Largo lets out a chuckle nodding not lying about it as he proclaims. ''No, it's fine. I learned to let things go, at least at the time being.''
''But you shouldn't give up on her. You have much to prove to her and it is best you make that effort before it's too late.''
Welkin frowns now getting why Largo is talking to him and also assumes he had a friend who loved the same woman he loved too. Maybe he should at least try to earn Alicia's heart, somehow even if he fails.
''Anyway, want to feel sure about your choice?'' Largo, changing subjects, asks the young man with a wild grin. Welkin blinks very puzzle muttering. ''Huh?''
Not sure where they were going, Largo takes him to a tent and declares opening it up. ''Walk in and enjoy-''
The two men step in and blink awkwardly not by the warm hot tub within the tent but more towards the fact they weren't alone. Sitting in the tub very nervously and nude, Yugi is there awkwardly waving at the two with large red cheeks. ''Um hello.''
''Yugi-san?'' Welkin utters sweat dropping. Largo also sweat drops curious how the kid found his special place he made himself.
The tricolor head chuckles nervously explaining himself. ''Hehe. I found this place curious by the tent and um… well here we are.''
Largo nods smirking impress the young man appreciates the joy of hot tubs.
''Mind if we join-'' He asks the young man who immediately protests with bright red cheeks waving his arms panicking. ''NO-NO! I'm um…''
Welkin blinks noticing Yugi is still sitting as he did that. Yugi gulps blushing explaining himself softly. ''I was thinking of Ichigo-kun.''
Both men slowly widen their eyes already imaging his privates is long and rod-like.
''O-Oh…'' Welkin mutters his face red. Largo nods more impressed that the younger kid shows his love for his lover praising him. ''Now the kid knows what he wants. You should be more like him commander.''
Yugi blinks eyeing Welkin and takes a wild guess. ''About Welkin-kun liking Alicia-kun?''
Largo laughs a bit pretty astonished. Welkin, blushing, nods as he admits softly. ''Y-Yes…''
Yugi smiles getting that having his doubts with Ichigo before if he was really the right person and not Masaya. He could feel Welkin cared for Alicia, much like he cared for Ichigo. He suggests to him. ''Here's something that might help you: Try winning her before she makes her choice.''
Welkin startles a bit that he's getting advice from Yugi of all people. Still, the young man wasn't naïve so he trusts what he has to say.
''Remember, it's Alicia-kun who decides who she will love and you need to show what you can offer- no, what you truly feel for her.'' Yugi advises him learning not just by experience but how someone feels for another if both don't feel the same for each other then there's nothing there; example being Ichigo and Kish. His obsession for Ichigo never changed how she could never love him back… unlike how she loved Masaya and also how she feels for him.
''If she feels the same for you strongly, then she'll return those feelings ten-fold.'' The tricolor head states believing strongly in what love should be. Welkin stares speechless at his words. Largo nods firmly on those incredible words.
''Thank you Yugi-san.'' Welkin thanks the tricolor head, trusting his words strongly. The tricolor head nods smiling as he replies blushing. ''I'll get out soon, promise.''
Welkin nods with Largo stating with a chuckle. ''Well enjoy your time.''
Yugi nods softly watching as the two leave. Now alone and shooting out from underneath the warm water, Ichigo gasps coughing heavily and nude though she covers herself with her arms especially her marbles of chests.
She eyes the tricolor head, giggling how sweet he was giving that advice to Welkin especially the words he mentioned about trusting Alicia in loving him.
''When have I heard those words you told Welkin-kun Nya?'' She teases the tricolor head with a soft grin. Yugi blushes staring at her as she suddenly wraps her arms around him and presses her chests over his. Ichigo smiles at him and tells him in a cute, soft voice. ''I still feel strongly for you too Yugi-kun.''
Yugi blushes embracing her back in the hot tub, muttering softly into her lovely cat ears. ''I do too my Strawberry Kitten.''
Ichigo purrs licking his neck sexually happy to have him in her life. Yugi giggles petting her cat ears more.
''So…'' The cat girl begins uttering forming a naughty grin with her cat tooth being shown. ''Shall we continue playing Nya?''
Yugi smirks hoping she would suggest that as he kisses her on her soft, strawberry flavor lips.
Isara walks around searching for a certain blue hedgehog and after a few more searches she found him lying on his back on a building. She eyes him up and tries uttering getting his attention. ''Um, excuse me.''
Sonic opens one of his eyes and looks down seeing her looking up at him. He gets up and waves at her saying. ''Oh hey! How are you feeling?''
''Better.'' Isara responds though her face didn't match how she should feel. She watches Sonic leap up from the roof and lands next to her.
''I wanted to thank you correctly… for saving me.'' Isara begins saying most thankful for saving her from that bullet… but a part of her has been unsure if she should be even alive. It's strange but she shouldn't have lived through that, like she was destined to have met her end.
She looks at the blue hedgehog, frowning a bit and explains her uneasiness. ''I… I've been feeling like I shouldn't have lived through that. Like… that was my fate to have died there.''
Sonic hums hearing her and couldn't help but this feels like a Deja-vu.
''Maybe, but I don't believe in fate.'' He states which startles Isara. She eyes him as Sonic looks at her back and he adds with a small smirk. ''You remind me of someone I knew. She's a princess, a timid one afraid to cry due to the power within her.''
Isara blinks with red cheeks never compared as a princess, ever.
Sonic chuckles thinking of that one adventure that never happened but did; it's complicated when he sort of died and time travel and other stuff he didn't bother ever telling anyone else about. For Isara, however, it's an exception.
''Elise, she had a life that meant she had to give up a lot of stuff and most of all the importance to be alive.'' The blue hedgehog states eyeing the young Darcsen and sees a bit of the princess in her; well in sense that she views the lives of others more important than her own.
He looks at her and asks of her being modest than acting cool. ''Isara, you should enjoy life too. You're a nice girl and you have a long future now ahead of you. Don't think of it like you should have died; think of it as an adventure you haven't died yet.''
Isara blushes looking away a bit, never thinking of it like that. She did almost died and now she's face with reality that she must accept the life she has in a different light, one she must lose again and achieve all the joys she wants from it. Sonic smiles patting her shoulder as she turns eyeing him and he tells her with a wink. ''We all get one life on this beautiful world. Don't lose it.''
She looks at him and nods, not going to lose this life that's precious. Sonic coughs not wanting this to feel moody as he says grinning. "I'm gotta ask Alicia if she made the bread I wanted.''
Isara nods bowing. Sonic salutes noticing someone near the door and comments with a small smirk. ''Besides, three's a crowd. Catch you later!''
With that he dashes off but not before he pulls the one hiding to be in front of Isara who was Rosie, blinking awkwardly.
''Rosie.'' Isara utters, blushing a bit. Rosie grunts eyeing her, trying to look tough but maybe for once, she can't help but be more relaxed towards her.
''… I owe you a song, didn't I?'' The redhead says having promised the young Darcsen her singing. Isara just stares at her speechless and she couldn't help herself but nod. Rosie sighs smiling a bit as she starts singing for her only audience.
Isara smiles warmly hearing his singing. Lying outside over a building, Sonic listens to the singing with a small smirk on his face, enjoying the tune.
It was now the next morning as Squad 7 and Team Dragon Knight prepare to head out to Bruhl. They all looked determined especially Alicia, Welkin and Isara. It was their hometown after all and they won't let the Imperials have it any longer.
''Ready to head out Welkin-kun?'' Yugi asks him with Welkin replying with a small smile. "I am.''
Welkin eyes Isara who smiles at him and he smiles back. He turns to eye everyone else and declares proudly. ''Let's go, everyone!''
The two groups nod as they begin to leave the base, feeling like their battles are nearing an end.
Giving a chance to be alive, our heroes march into battle to take back Bruhl. Is this war finally closing to its end? However, does that mean the climax is near the corner? Will they be ready for the final battle then?
Within the palace of Randgriz, King Maximilian sits on his throne now being informed by the hooded figure of the defeat in Mulberry Coast and now Bruhl is being taken back by the Gallians. The cold-hearten prince has played enough games with these peasants.
''Time for the endgame.'' The figure declares for their final strategy. Maximilian couldn't help but agreeing.
''Indeed it is.'' The young king responds, standing up from his throne and declares raising his hand to the imaginary heavens. ''It's time to end this foolish war, once and for all.''
The figure bows though through his hood his red eyes glow, expecting this to happen and now his goal may finally be achieve.
The final battle slowly arrives! Will our heroes be ready for the last stretch?
To be continued…

Thank you for another great episode. I thank those who are helping me get this story notice and enjoy it. For those who love it, please review my story and give me your opinions or thoughts to it.
Next Time…
Our Heroes fought and succeed in taking Bruhl back to Gallia… however, their victory is shortly lived as Maximilian, through all possible radio signals, has declared the execution of Princess Cordelia and the complete surrender of Gallia or suffer total destruction. Forced to prepare for the final battle, a few try to reach out their feelings for one and another and Alicia makes a decision.
Naruto: WE WON YA KNOW!
Alicia sweat drops: We haven't won yet but sure, getting back Bruhl is a huge win!
Sonic grins: You sound pretty excited huh?
Alicia blushes: I am… thanks to all of you.
Yugi smiles: All of us Alicia-kun. We won because we have a bond, something no army can beat.
Alicia: A bond?
Irene rushes over: W-WHERE WERE YOU ALL!
Jonouchi: Look new chick, you can get my interview but let me eat something first please.
Kurosaki: I don't think for once she's here for an interview.
Jenny: Yea, I can feel we're about to receive bad news. Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: Unspoken Thoughts and the March towards Destiny!
Ichi: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time and let's hope it's nothing bad.
Author's Note: PFF… No, just no. Yes, Isara's death (SPOILER) did mean a lot to many, especially Rosie and her reflection towards Darcsen, Welkin for losing the last person of his family and thought of her as his sister, and Alicia for it was the push that made her care more for Welkin. For DKR… I changed that due to reasons and a sense of hope… which can EASILY be reversed? What? How?! *eyes Volume 9* I'll end this discussion for now.
So Sonic has Bullet Time in DKR? Yes… he does. Like SONIC SHOULD HAVE THIS! Now what is Bullet Time? Well it's slow mode for those who go superfast. The Flash is one speedster I can think of who has such a thing. Why not Sonic? He was born running. I guess he never trained… but in DKR, it's different. Sonic isn't just fighting Eggman anymore or over the top god, powerful beings as Super Sonic; he's facing those with different kind of skills like Zommari. For Sonic to get better he needs to be a different kind of faster and Bullet Time comes in handy… Sonic Time? Eh… Slow Time? Whatever you call it; this is Sonic now able to react better than before. The games should give that option for Sonic so modern Sonic games can be funnier to play.
Haha, funny thing about that. For those who has seen the Sonic the Hedgehog first movie trailer with that nightmare fuel, Sonic can do Bullet Time and that's great! Really great... not so much for that movie or that... aw... nightmare fuel.
The whole reason why it was Sonic who saved Isara is explainable. No need to explain it here. I will say Sonic 06 still sucks and its story… but some parts can be mentioned to show character growth for the blue hedgehog… and nothing more, unless well Mephiles the Dark. Not to going to say anything else.
Speaking of villains, Aigami will be used more often as another factor Team Dragon Knight have to deal with. So Yugi has currently 4 (more actually) people that are his enemies: The Dark Lord, Aizen, Light and Aigami. So who knew huh?
Also don't um ask me to do songs in chapters. I tried that once as practice, I didn't enjoy it. Felt like more choir than writing.
