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!

Volume 4: Episode 17: The Decisive Battle! Defeat Metal Overlord!
In the previous episode of DKR:
Finally reaching the castle, Yugi with Jonouchi, Danny, Sonic and Ed arrived and confronted both King Maximillian and Metal Sonic. Both sides, mostly between the Dragon Knight and the cold nature king that reminds him of Light oddly enough, clash ideals of their actions ultimately coming down to the others dealing with Metal Sonic while Yugi fights Maximillian wearing his artificial Valkyria armor.
The two clashed with Yugi surprisingly not able to do any damage even with the Dragon Slayer. At this point Maximillian began preaching of the need to control the weak with power as absolute power and if not for the selfish, his mother would be alive. Yugi protested believing in the free will of everyone only to begin doubting himself when Sir Dragonaun speaks in his head, reminded him that if it was the case, he should give up on the wishes his parents put on him and the pursuit as a Dragon Knight. This caused Yugi to almost die but Atem snapped him out, reminded him that all of his decisions were not by others, but his own choice. Smiling as he almost gave up too easily, Yugi told Sir Dragonaun that he had always been like this; someone who wants to help anyone in need without asking anything in return. He then told Maximillian that his sense of power is that of a man who has no one and trusts no one, not even the fall of his own allies compared to the bonds between him and his friends.
Sighing, reminded of his comrades, Jaeger made his decision and walked away, no longer wanting to fight beside someone who he thought had power but viewed no one as a true ally. Enrage that he would turned his back, Maximillian tried to kill him but Yugi stopped him now angry. No longer holding back, Yugi activated Burst Limit and the Power of Friendship, the Dragon Blade, easily deposited of the cold-hearten king. Defeated and humiliated by Yugi's words, Maximilian tried to kill him though Yugi would stop him only for Maximillian to get shot behind the back, dropping unconscious by Jaeger.
Yugi questioned Jaeger why he did it and Jaeger just said in his cool guy tone that Yugi reminded him of himself, forgotten that real strength comes from your allies than pure strength. With that Jaeger left to go back to his hometown after leaving a message of King Maximillian's death.
With no King and no more generals, the rest of the Imperial Soldiers surrendered. Meanwhile Metal Sonic engaged Danny, Sonic and Ed and were able to hold their ground somewhat though Metal had upgrades and his ability to become stronger through their data made him a powerful force, until Yugi arrived and easily disposed of him with the Dragon Blade.
Is this finally the end of this war? Or is Metal Sonic really finished?
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
Dragging himself weakly with a bullet shot still in his chest, Maximilian managed to regain some strength to drag his half-moving body inside the Marmotah. He struggles to move anymore but ultimately he arrives inside the main command room.
"Damn Jaeger...'' Cursing out the traitor he will hunt down hopefully or kill after this, Maximilian mutters out reaching towards the commander's chair; his commander chair. He gasps out bleeding from his mouth now, feeling his body slowly going to fail on him. Gritting his teeth, Maximilian refuses to be bested by his own body.
''No, I refuse… to lose like this.'' He tells him angrily, reminded furious by the words of the Dragon Knight. Those damn words of friendship and bonds, nonsense, are utter nonsense.
''I don't need anyone!'' He yells finally sitting on his chair. Reaching weakly to the controls on his commander chair, Maximilian starts activating the massive machine fortress. Since it was now fully recharged and still had the ancient Valkyrur weapon attached to it, he can use its full power to destroy all of Randgriz and end the lives of all of his enemies with a mere press of a button.
''With the Marmotah, I will destroy this cursed place and everyone on it!'' Maximilian declares to himself not caring anymore about this land or any lives to command or rule. He'll kill all of them, everyone; and he'll have the last laugh. Cracking an evil smirk, Maximilian prepares to activate the machine until he hears a metallic footstep.
''That is a good idea.'' Maximilian widens his eyes by the voice. He turns around and instantly he's grabbed by the neck and tossed out of his chair. He gasps out still bleeding out, looking up weakly at the so-called comrade of his though he looks completely different.
''But you are no longer part of it, Maximilian.'' Neo Metal Sonic declares his arms crossed and his eyes glowing down at him. Maximilian sweats actually terrify by the robot's new appearance but tries to act calmly. He doesn't know about the betray plan so as long as he plays the part of his ally then he might come out of this alive and better.
''You… W-what are you still-'' Maximilian tries speaking though it's much harder to say much with the wounds on his body. However he's cut off by Neo Metal, his eyes rather more unemotional than his, as he states firmly. ''I was aware of your intentions to destroy me. It is a shame about your Valkyria, unable to finish her mission for you.''
Maximilian widens his eyes by this. How? How did he- it then hit the dying king that Metal Sonic stated before that he has a connection to his robots. So it's likely he had one spying or watching Selvaria when she engaged those of the Dragon Knight's team. He was a fool not thinking of that sooner.
Neo Metal Sonic still looks down at him proclaiming, insulted by this human's weak-hearted existence. ''But you never really cared about that woman, or any human. You are a being incapable of love since the death of your mother.''
That part hit Maximilian greatly trying to yell. ''YOU DARE-''
Neo Metal Sonic instantly appears and grabs him by the neck again. Maximilian gasps out more blood while the robotic killing machine grips his claws tightly around his neck while raising him up.
''But do not feel like you've lost for this was your purpose, my king.'' Neo Metal states almost humble if not twisted. He leans his head up closer to a frightened Maximilian, realizing how much vile the machine was to any human right now. His eyes oddly sparkling, Neo Metal then says oddly chuckling. ''When I said you would rule this land; I lied.''
This discovering shocked Maximilian greatly. This couldn't be. Then why? Why not end him sooner.
''Y-you planned to get rid of me before? Why not then?!'' He demands almost insulted as if he wasn't a threat. Neo Metal Sonic looks at him and instead of answering he slams the king onto the large screen, shattering it. Maximilian though gasps in massive pain with some shards of the screen now sticking on his back.
''Your command and fear you place in your army was necessary as well as making sure you are the last of your empire's heir.'' Neo Metal explains to him with simple words while he crosses his arms behind his back. Even if he could have killed Maximilian back then and taken his place, using his power to transform into anyone or anything; none of that would matter compare to the factor that Maximilian controls or binds to his will. This was also a chance to collect the way he thinks, another factor of why he was spared… but now it was over.
''However all those are now obsolete meaning…'' Neo Metal Sonic states and throws Maximilian back to his commander's chair, actually breaking it as it and he slammed to the wall. Maximilian grunts in greater pain, feeling his legs were broken as Neo Metal Sonic adds with a grim, dark voice. ''You are no longer worth living.''
Gasping out, Maximilian reaches to the control panels of his destroyed chair, declaring as if he still had a chance to win. ''I still possess the Marmotah, you still-''
''Your machine is impressive.'' Maximilian startles by the praise the robot gave his war machine. Neo Metal Sonic eyes him stating it. ''Another factor of why you weren't eliminated earlier. It will serve well becoming part of me.''
''Part of you?'' Maximilian questions not following him. Neo Metal Sonic chuckles again but twisted as his eyes glow red. In that instantly all parts fly out from inside the commander room towards Neo Metal Sonic who begins to twirl around. Maximilian watches in confusion until he realizes the pieces were combining, no fusing with him. He then watches as the room starts shrinking, compressing itself as was all of the Marmotah.
''Hahaha! Farewell, Maximilian. May your legacy be a stain of blood.'' Laughing maliciously, Neo Metal Sonic bids his final goodbye to the dead prince-turned-king. Maximilian watches helplessly as the room starts compressing faster and faster towards Neo Metal Sonic who was beginning to transform again.
Gritting his teeth as he watches himself about to die in the worst of ways, Maximilian yells from the bottom of his voice, cursing the machine. ''D-DAMN YOU!''
Soon the room compresses entirely and SNAP-SPLAT is heard, human blood dripping from a tiny gap. The Marmotah is completely absorbed and soon in its place is something much larger.
Yugi startles, his eyes flashing, as if he heard the screaming pain of a soul dying and one he already felt before.
''D-did you guys hear that? That was Maximilian-kun and he's-'' The tricolor head asks the others wondering if Maximilian had died but before he could finish himself the ground starts shaking violently.
''W-what the heck is going on?!'' Ed utters out pretty surprise. Danny is too looking around until they all hear a loud booming voice echoing through the palace and even all of Randgriz. ''All things must be annihilated. All machines shall become part of me!''
In that moment all metal-technology objects all suddenly were pulled away. This shocks everyone especially Danny as his smartphone-like PDA suddenly shoots out from his pockets flying away.
''My PDA!'' Danny shouts reaching his hand but it was gone. He sighs upsetting complaining. ''Aw! Tucker is going to killed me and we were closed to beating Ultra Doomed. Dang.''
Ed just shakes his head how silly he got for losing that device to play that game or whatever. Yugi sighs feeling Danny's loss as he tells the group. ''Everyone, that voice sounded like-''
Just then he's cut off again as the walls of the palace starts break apart. Sonic didn't waste time grabbing Danny and Ed and drags them out fast with Yugi following right behind them flying at top speed. They all got outside, noticing Faldio also with them and had a face of tear. The four look at where he's looking and they all begin to widen their eyes in horror as the Palace of Randgriz is tear apart as something frightening and evil emerges out of its remains.
Gulping with a small smirk, Sonic speaks up very worry. ''Yep… That's Metal too.''
A few minutes before, the combine force of Gallian and Amestris put in custody with the remains of the Imperial soldiers. Mustang lets out a breather relief this mess was resolve much faster than he had hoped.
''It's finally over.'' He states rather glad this ended. Bradley eyes him and just smiles congratulating his work. ''You did well Colonel.''
Mustang eyes his commander and simply replies honestly. ''I can't take all the credit. Gallia has fine men and women willing to fight for their land, regardless of their race and beliefs.''
Bradley hums eyeing Squad 7 all celebrating, almost all but they were all happy the war has ended. He nods commenting. ''Indeed they have.''
Just then the ground starts shaking violently all over the city of Randgriz. Everyone starts worrying that maybe this is due to the battle but it was clearly more than that.
''H-hey what's with this shaking?!'' Edy complains not liking the shaking. Welkin looks around and just notices that Maximilian's giant weaponized tank was being ripped apart and its pieces were flying towards a single point.
''Everyone run away now!'' A voice shouts getting his and everyone's attention. They turn to see Vine running at top speed still carrying Princess Cordelia on his arms. He runs pass Mustang who eyes him dumbfounded, uttering very shock to see him here. ''Vine?!''
Vine blinks stopping, still pacing his legs and feet, as he turns and eyes the Flame Alchemist.
''Oh hey Roy, happy seeing you but chit-chat later!'' Vine tells him before resuming his run. Mustang just stares still very dumbfounded.
''Was that the princess?'' Armstrong also surprised to see the Raging Blast here, questions recalling the young lady he was carrying. Welkin blinks also pretty sure that was the princess but her hair was different.
Mustang also had much to ask Vine but he knows this isn't the time, advising everyone running away. ''Back away now!''
Everyone just nods following his lead though Welkin is wondering what's going on over there.
Sighing, Naruto is relief to be in the city and certain the fighting has ended. Mew Ichigo is also relief as was Alicia though she feels unease about this.
''Phew, we made it!'' Judai declares smiling. Mew Ichigo nods but then she feels something. She uses her ears to detect this sensation.
Kurosaki notices the look on the cat girl's face and asks her. ''What's wrong Momomiya? We're almost-''
''I hear something.'' Mew Ichigo informs the group hearing the sound growing stronger so much so that they all felt it with the ground shaking massive dangerous.
''I feel something alright.'' Naruto mutters pretty unease about it. Just then the ground beneath them starts shaking violently, sinking most of the buildings in the city. Kurosaki quickly grabs Judai and Naruto, pulling them away with Mew Ichigo holding on Alicia and leaps both of them away. In the sky momentary, they can see the damage happening especially towards the Palace of Rangdriz now in ruins.
''Okay I can too.'' Kurosaki states the obvious now. Alicia eyes the destruction as they land but also see something massive emerging from the palace. This gigantic shadow of said figure shocked the group greatly.
''W-what the hell?!'' Alicia mutters out really terrified. Mew Ichigo stares worrying knowing well Yugi-kun and the others will need their help, especially hers.
''Okay. Kurosaki-kun, carry Alicia the rest of the way Nya!'' The cat girl orders the Substitute Shinigami removing her grip off Alicia and leaps off. Kurosaki tries calling her out grabbing Alicia and flies after her. ''Oi wait Momomiya!''
Alicia screams a bit taken into the sky again while Naruto and Judai chase the two on foot.
As they were getting there, Welkin and Squad 7 spots them. Seeing Alicia with them, Welkin couldn't help himself but turn around and follow her. The others eye their command and Isara is the one following right behind him. The others soon nod among each other and follow them.
Yugi and his group stare up in horror at the gigantic enemy that resembles Neo Metal Sonic.
His appearance is now that of a large, blue, heavily-armed mechanical dragon, with two eyes lined up vertically on his head. He has several long spikes on his upper body and many smaller ones running down his back and his long, curved tail. He has a flamethrower arm cannon as his right hand, and his left hand has four fingers with claws that can be launched, but he has no legs. He has a pair of mechanical wings on his lower body, showing several cables hanging from the bottom of his body.
Danny and Ed drop their jaws not believing this with Yugi staring very worry and Sonic gulping also worry.
''HAHAHA! I have become truly COMPLETED!'' The gigantic dragon machine finally lets out a mechanical, insane laugh. Yugi startles greatly how he sounds just like Metal Sonic, assuming that is him.
''T-that's Metal Sonic-kun now?!'' The tricolor head questions out surprise. Sonic nods though he corrects him. ''Neo Metal.''
Jonouchi makes a face like ''seriously?!''.
''This happened last time. Metal fused himself with many machine parts, mostly Egghead's fleet ships, assimilating them into his body to become well what he dubs himself; Metal Overlord.'' Sonic explains remembering the events of when Metal took over Eggman's army and invited him and the others to stop what they all assumed to be the crazy doctor.
''That's some real ego from a robot.'' Danny says pretty sure not even Technus is that twisted. Ed then asks pretty concern on the size of the further evolved Metal. "Okay, how did you beat him like this?''
Sonic eyes the short size alchemist and answers honestly with a small grin. ''Super Sonic with Tails and Knuckles also with Chaos Energy.''
Almost everyone made a face with Jonouchi slowly stating defeated. ''… Yea we're doomed.''
Metal Overlord starts laughing loudly with its multiple red eyes all glowing.
''I have once again transcended as the Ultimate Overlord!'' Metal Overlord declares with a booming, mechanical voice. He looks down at the tiny ants, announcing most menacing and threatening.''None of you will stand in my way again. Prepare to meet oblivion!''
Yugi glares at the dragon-like machine and, annoyed that he thinks he'll beat them after coming this far in saving Gallia. He won't allow that calling him out while pointing Dragon Blade at him. ''Just because you grew Godzilla size doesn't mean you'll beat us!''
Sonic smirks nodding determine to beat Metal once and for all. Danny also smiles not given up yet. Ed, however, finds that name Yugi said rather… confusing.
''What's a Godzilla?'' Edward asks very confused by what Yugi called Metal as. The young Dragon Knight just sweat drops not sure how to explain it right now since-
''DIE!'' Metal Overlord roars raising his flamethrower arm and unleashes a burst of devastating flames at the group. Yugi prepares to guard against the attack but Danny beats him to it steps forward in front of the others.
''I'M GOING GHOST!'' Raising his arms up, Danny shouts as the large white ring surrounds the middle of his stomach and splits up and down, transforming him into his ghost form. Danny then forms a ghost energy barrier, repelling the flames easily.
''Yugi, any ideas?'' Phantom asks the young Dragon Knight hoping he has a plan against the giant threat in front of them. The tricolor head thinks while the barrier is still holding. Right now he didn't have anything specific that could harm this Metal Overlord except one simple suggestion eyeing Jonouchi.
''We hit him really-really hard… by cutting off his wings and arms!'' Yugi suggests pretty confident on the idea. Jonouchi immediately grins liking it.
''Love it!'' Ed also agrees clapping his hands and slams them on the ground, transmuting sharp ended pillars from underneath Metal Overlord and hits him. The machine dragon just roars annoyed not feeling any damage as he destroys the pillars by swiping his tail at them. At this chance Danny pushes back the flames with ice rays while Yugi and Sonic rush at Metal Overlord on air and ground with Ed following right behind them riding on a pillar he transmuted.
Metal Overlord roars raising his claws and swings them at them. Danny pulls Jonouchi away while blasting two ghost rays at the claws, intercepting them. Sonic speeds up going Spin Dash with Sonic Boost, grinding his spiky ball body rapidly on the surface of Metal Overlord who roars annoyed. Yugi uses his high speed movement to slash at the wings rapidly but couldn't cut through them deeper. Ed gets on top of Metal Overlord and swings his wrist blade at his face which actually cuts off the wrist blade to his horror.
''… Why am I not surprise.'' Ed mutters as Metal Overlord tries eating him but instead gets his face slash by Yugi swinging the Dragon Blade. The slash didn't damage him but did left a scratch. Yugi grabs Ed and the two move away instantly back at the ground in mere seconds. Metal Overlord roars unleashing sparks of electricity across his body which shocks Sonic still grinding on him. The blue hedgehog yells falling back but manages to land on his feet, burned slightly.
''OKAY not working!'' Edward points out pretty much giving up on the idea now. Yugi hated to agree with that.
Danny joins them firing a much bigger ghost ray but Metal Overlord just repels it forming a fiery blue barrier. This shocked everyone as it was the same Selvaria had used.
''Naive humans!'' Metal Overlord shouts as he proclaims. ''I had fuse with Maximilian's Marmotah which was attached to that sacred Valkyrur weapon. With Ragnite infuse with my current body: I am unstoppable with MORE ENDLESS ENERGY AND RESISTANCE!''
"Oh lovely.'' Danny mutters not at all glad about it. Ed, however, thinks about it and smirks getting an idea. He eyes Yugi and tells the group. ''I got a plan. Yugi, need you the most.''
Yugi blinks eyeing his eyes and could tell that Ed is very serious about it. Smirking a bit, the tricolor head nods eyeing Sonic and he grins getting the message.
Sonic then dashes at Metal Overlord who roars, shooting out spike-like missiles from his back at him. The blue hedgehog runs around the destroyed buildings, using the walls and broken remains like parkour to evade the missiles.
''It's foolish to stop me now, Sonic! Without your super form, you are-'' Metal Overlord begins declaring with no worry of Super Sonic to appear only for Sonic to miss the lap missile and leaps himself right at his face and kicks it. The machine dragon roars angrily as Sonic sits on his face, near his eyes, and wags his butt at him. Metal roars again swiping his claw over his face but Sonic moves away in the last second getting Metal to basically hit his face with his own claw.
''I'm always going to beat you Metal, Super or not! You know why?'' Sonic begins telling him, standing right over his head in one of his relaxing lying poses. Metal Overlord roars raising his claw to hit him but once again Sonic moves in the last second instantly that Metal hits himself. Now standing on the ground, Sonic finishes his line while rubbing his nose with one finger in a cool manner. ''Because I'm that awesome and I always have friends!''
Metal Overlord roars raising his flamethrower arm to burn him but then he gasps looking down to see Yugi slashes his chest with the Dragon Blade.
''That makes it double for me!'' Yugi declares with a small smirk. Metal Overlord tries blasting him with his mouth blast but Yugi dodges instantly while slashing his face again. Metal roars distracted as he hears Ed's voice. ''AND TRIPLE FOR ME!''
''What?!'' Metal startles hearing the alchemist's voice and close. Ed is right on top of Metal Overlord's back as he claps his hands with sparks flying between them.
''I'm going to transmute your body to turn the Ragnite into coal or iron, anything else to lose its special properties!'' Fullmetal explains himself smirking as he slams his hands on the back of Metal Overlord and watches as a pulse goes through his body. Metal gasps out feeling it but his eyes start blinking rapidly as if doing something.
''Okay, that should have-'' Ed begins to conclude he got him until Metal's blinking eyes stop and glow violently. Just then another pulse surrounds Metal Overlord's body and repels Edward's. This startles the young alchemist actually feeling it as Alchemy. Metal Overlord roars spinning himself rapidly which sends Ed off his body. He yells but gets catch by Yugi who quickly puts him back on the ground again.
Gritting his teeth, Edward calls out at the giant robot furious. ''How?! You can't-''
''Fool! Must I remind your pathetic, human brain again?'' Metal Overlord interrupts Ed's words with a tremendous roar. He adds almost grinning viciously. ''I have gathered all of your data AND adapted it to my very being! Your Alchemy will not work on me or any of your attempts!''
Ed grunts angrily meaning the attempt to change his body's texture won't work.
Metal Overlord laughs as he declares with his eyes glowing red and his voice becoming a stronger booming echo. ''YOU HAVE LOST AND SO WILL YOUR LIVES AND THE WORLD WILL BE MINE!''
Yugi glares worrying but not defeated yet. He knows they can still win; they just need to find a way how.
Commercial Break:
Yugi: We won't let you kill anyone else Metal Sonic-kun! This is over!
Alicia: For the stake of Gallia and the dreams of me and my squad, I won't allow this to go on!
Jonouchi watches terrified as Yugi and the others were still facing the evil giant machine dragon now shooting missiles from his back and from his claws. Yugi and Danny intercept the missiles with Sonic dodging them and Ed transmutes an earth wall to block them. Yugi slashes them but then one hits him being some kind of capture net, shocking him badly.
''Yugi!'' Danny shouts flying towards him but Metal Overlord fires beams from his eyes, hitting the ghost boy who yelps slammed to a wall. The machine roars firing more missiles at him.
Danny panics as Metal's missiles are going to hit him too, until a voice shouts out. "Go Red-Eyes, Gilford!''
In that moment the nets were slashed and burn away by Red-Eyes Black Dragon and Gilford the Lightning. Grunting still holding on Kurosaki's body Jonouchi steps up wielding his Duel Disk also going to fight. Yugi sees this smiling and focuses trying to break free from the net.
''I'm not letting you giant freak hurt my friends!'' Jonouchi calls him out smirking.
''PATHETIC!'' Metal Overlord shouts firing a beam blast from his chest at the pest. Jonouchi now panics but in that moment Yugi roars and burns through the capture net with Yin-Yang Dragon's energy. He then dashes with impossible speed to appear in front of his best friend and swings the Dragon Blade, intercepting and slashing through the beam.
''You're the one who's pathetic! I won't let you hurt anyone else!'' Yugi calls him out determine with his eyes glowing just as strongly. Jonouchi smirks nodding as Red-Eyes and Gilford join up with the Dragon Knight.
''Let me ask you this, Metal Sonic-kun!'' Yugi suddenly calls out at the massive machine dragon. Sonic was going to interrupt him correcting the name but Yugi resumes saying. ''After everything you've done all makes sense, but did Maximilian-kun had to go after Ichigo-kun when his target was Alicia-san?''
Metal Overlord oddly stops moving, gazing at the young Dragon Knight and answers him out of humor. ''Simple answer, Dragon Knight; I told him to.''
Yugi startles pretty surprise by such a respond. He was about to ask why but Metal answers him almost knowing he would. ''Why you may ask? Because the one you consider as Ichigo Momomiya has something in her. Something that has limitless power.''
Not replying away, Yugi thinks back at the times Ichigo changes her behavior. He frowns proclaiming. ''I don't know what you're-''
Metal Overlord roars interrupting him again. ''Do not play stupid if that was your intention. You've felt it, no? You know what she has and whatever it is, I will now use it for my own means.''
Just the thought of seeing Ichigo used, of her hopes and smiles to vanish by another using whatever she might have in her; this enrages Yugi greatly that his eyes glow redder as did his aura. He lifts his blade at him, not going to allow it.
''I won't let you touch Ichigo-kun or anyone else! I SWEAR IT!'' The young Dragon Knight vows furious that he will never let anyone take away those he loves and cherishes.
Already done with him, Metal Overlord roars opening his mouth and gathering energy into his mouth while declaring. ''THEN CEASE TO EXIST!''
The group watches as Metal fires the destructive mouth blast at them. Yugi prepares to stop it but then feels something causing him to smile.
''RIBBON CHIDORI CHECK!'' Hearing a similar voice shouting, a pink energy blast with electrical pink ribbons comes out of nowhere and blocks Metal Overlord's attack. This surprises the group except Yugi who looks up for a moment as Mew Ichigo lands in front of them.
''Not while I have something to say Nya!'' The cat girl heroine declares striking her cat pose at the evil machine dragon.
Yugi smiles walking up beside her and praises his girlfriend. ''Nice save, Ichigo-kun.''
Mew Ichigo eyes him giggling as she tells the group. ''Sorry we arrived late. We got busy Nya.''
The others except Yugi blink by the ''we'' part. The tricolor head, however, knew as he looks around and sees Kurosaki instantly landing next to them with Alicia on his arm soon followed by Naruto and Judai joining the group.
Naruto pants really exhausted until he panics seeing the gigantic blue dragon-like machine thing. Judai also spots it asking pretty taken back as he could see similarities of Metal Sonic on this gigantic robot. ''Isn't that the robot doppelganger of Sonic?''
''Very same!'' Sonic informs him and the others pretty relaxed about it. Kurosaki just makes a face with Alicia asking with a terrifying expression at the size of their enemy. ''How are we supposed to beat that?!''
Yugi eyes her and just makes a small smile answering her heroic. ''Together!''
Everyone in Team Dragon Knight just smirks as the group charges at Metal Overlord while he firing its missiles.
Alicia eyes him back startled but blushing that he's not wrong. Maybe together, they can beat this machine.
Catching up to the others, Welkin and Squad 7 spots Alicia among them across the other side of the torn-up street. Relief to see her okay after that strange conversation through the transceiver, Welkin calls her out. ''Alicia!''
Alicia startles turning around to see them all, blushing almost sadden like she was never going to see them again.
''Welkin. Everyone!'' She calls them back smiling trying to wave her hand or well the lance she's still carrying. This got Rosie and the others' attention except Welkin who replies relief to see her. ''I was worried! I thought-''
''I know! I'm okay now!'' Alicia just answers with a small smile. Welkin nods stretching out his arm on his side and asks her raising it towards her. ''Let's leave it to Yugi-san and the others to fight that machine. Jump over here, Alicia.''
Alicia stares at the hand but then back at the others now starting to fight Metal Overlord. She thinks on all that has happened and the fact she's a Valkyria. She knows deep down she has to do something, even if it's something she has never fought before.
''… I can't.'' Alicia finally answers back not able to accept his hand. Welkin startles as did the others by her decision.
Alicia looks back seeing Yugi reappearing near her just missing more of Metal Overlord's capture net missiles and she calls him out asking. ''Yugi! Metal Sonic became part of Maximillian's machine?''
Yugi blinks turning to face her and answers as honest as Metal Overlord boasted about before. ''Basically.''
Alicia hums looking at the lance and shield she's holding and asks once more. ''So he's part Ragnite right?''
The tricolor head isn't 100% sure but nods since Metal Overlord boasted about that part too. Judai is nearby hearing that and startles getting what Alicia is trying to ask, though can she pull it off with the mindset she's in.
''You sure you want to try it?'' Judai asks worrying about her after Selvaria's death. Alicia frowns not sure especially the fact that since Metal Overlord is the only threat meaning Maximillian must have died.
''I couldn't save Selvaria or stop Maximillian myself.'' She says almost disappointed in herself but right now she knows she might be the only one that could harm this Metal Sonic and put an end to this bloodshed of a war. Looking at Judai and Yugi, Alicia adds with a look in her eyes of fire. ''I might as well be the one to destroy this machine that took too many lives. If you allow me.''
Judai frowns still worry but Yugi could tell she's serious about it as did her aura. He smiles nodding. Alicia smiles happy he trusts her. Welkin is still confused as were everyone in Squad 7.
''Alicia, what are you trying to say?'' He questions what she's trying to do. Alicia turns back facing him and with a brave face and a small smile, she responds. ''Doing my duty.''
Welkin just eyes her but snaps out, nodding as this is something important for Alicia so he'll put his trust onto her.
Alicia turns back around and closes her eyes, focusing deep in her emotions and desires. She imagines seeing a flame slowly burning up within her soul.
''Focus… on those flames.'' She tells herself as the imaginary flames glow blue and burn brighter and bigger. In that moment Alicia's body starts glowing light blue.
''A-Alicia?'' Welkin utters with him and his squad seeing this. It's Isara who recalls this before from Selvaria and another muttering. ''She's glowing like-''
Before she finishes her words Alicia's body quickly wraps itself temporary in blue flames and said flames blow away revealing her changed. She opens her eyes now glowing red as the lance and shield both glowing and transformed too.
''Everyone, get to safety. We got this one.'' Alicia orders her teammates still facing at the enemy she must defeat. Welkin is speechless as was Faldio watching this, confirming what he suspected.
Hesitate to say something, Welkin remembers the words he told her that reveal his love for her. Smiling, he nods trusting in Alicia even if she's something else. ''Careful, Alicia.''
''Kick his robot butt too!'' Edy oddly yells out wanting to see some real butt kicking. Everyone else sweat drop but oddly wanted to see that too.
Alicia eyes them and winks promising. Welkin smiles as he and the others take cover. Once they were away from the battlefield, Alicia runs up to Yugi watching her impressed and she tells him. ''I'm following your lead, Yugi.''
''And I got your back too, Alicia-san!'' Yugi responds with a small smirk. Alicia smirks back glaring at Metal Overlord having seen the transformation. Much like what he theorized, she and Selvaria were indeed Valkyrias but this meant nothing to his current self.
''So Maximilian, you were correct about the woman if not pathetic too.'' Metal Overlord proclaims not even threatened by her mere existence. Alicia just stares at him and slowly forms a smirk lifting up her lance and fires a burst of blue flames at him. The flames shoot up fast and actually manage to hit Metal Overlord over the sky, surprisingly melting through a hole on his left side.
''WHAT?!'' Metal roars out in horror, his computer programming not able to comprehend what had just happened. Alicia actually giggles also a little taken that worked but since it did, her plan can work against him. She explains herself almost cocky but polite. ''I guess you should feel honor Mr. Metal Sonic, us Valkyrias unlock our true potential through Ragnite so I wonder...''
Metal Overlord roars shooting missiles at her. Alicia just raises her shield as a fiery barrier surrounds her front and blocks the missiles, exploding them on impact. She then raises her lance and fires another burst of blue flames at him. Metal flies away in the sky but he still took some burned damage on the near ends, melting a bit.
''How much can your body withstand my flames?'' Alicia finishes what she was saying earlier with a small smirk. Metal Overlord's eyes glow brighter, almost madder as he yells furious. ''I ADAPT TO ALL NEW VARIABLES! YOUR ATTEMPTS MEAN NOTHING!''
Alicia hums as she asks him with Yugi and the others beside her. ''Why don't you prove it then? It's you against me and my friends.''
Metal Overlord just roars shooting out more missiles while firing his flamethrower arm again. Mew Ichigo, transforming into her Evolution form, fires a Ribbon Strawberry Surprise with Danny duplicating into 3 and all of them firing a volley of ghost rays. Their attacks intercepted most of Metal's attacks while the rest dodges the rest with Yugi and Kurosaki grabbing those that couldn't move away fast. Alicia surprisingly was able to dodge them easily while firing another blue flame blast at Metal who forms a barrier to block her attack this time.
Metal roars again firing more missiles. Naruto grunts annoyed wishing he had more fuel but he was running low since his fight with Selvaria. That was until he felt a surge as his body glows of the Kyuubi's chakra.
''Aren't you friendly today, you big giant fox?'' Naruto says with a small grin. Not wasting time, he forms his signature hand seal and shouts proudly. ''MULTI-SHADOW CLONE TECHNIQUE!''
A large smokescreen covers Naruto and in that same moment hundreds if not thousand Fuma Shurikens all shoot out from the smoke and hit the missiles, exploding them on impact. The smoke clears away in that instant to reveal hundreds of Naruto all smirking while pummeling their right fist over their left hand palm.
''Numbers mean nothing to me, the Ultimate Overlord!'' Metal Overlord roars furious by their resistance.
''Why don't you just shut up?'' Ed calls him out swinging his fist in an angry manner. Metal just roars firing more missiles at the group. Ed panics but Judai slides in front of him and summons Neos who swings a barrage of multiple punches, destroying the missiles. Metal Overlord roars firing a chest blast at him. Judai makes a smirk summoning Yubel who catches the beam and blasts it back. Metal dodges it still roaring.
''Neos, Yubel!'' Judai calls his two monsters as he uses Polymerization. Neos nods with Yubel smirking as the two cross each other and melded into one.
''Go Neos Wiseman!'' The E-HERO duelist declares as Neos Wiseman appears releasing a shockwave of energy around him. The orbs on his body glows as Judai commands while his eyes glow of Yubel's dual-colored eyes. ''Ultimate Nova!''
Neos Wiseman fires its multiple blue beam attack across his body at Metal Overlord, striking the gigantic machine dragon roaring angrily.
Jonouchi grins going to try that too fusing Red-Eyes Black Dragon and the summoned Red-Eyes Gearfried with Red-Eyes Fusion. The two monsters meld into one with the dirty colored blond headed shouting. ''Go, Red-Eyes Black Sword-Blasting Dragon!''
Emerging from the flames of the two monsters, Jonouchi's trump Red-Eyes appears letting a passionate fiery roar. The dragon flies at Metal Overlord who tries to shoot it down but it evades its claw swipes and flamethrower cannon, now over his head.
''Dark Mega Raging Slash!'' Jonouchi commands as Red-Eyes twirls at the machine and swings its sword bladed tail across its head, striking it directly.
Danny fires ice ghost rays freezing Metal Overlord's wings as Kurosaki slashes them actually shatter them. Metal falls from the sky and crashes hard, denting the ground. He lets out a roar yelling. ''Annoying humans!''
Metal Overlord starts spamming multiple missiles all over his body at the group. Everyone dodges or blocks his missiles attacks even Alicia just barely dodging them by leaping off. She blinks noticing how far she leaped that this is her first time just realizing it.
''O-Okay, I'm not used to this!'' Alicia screams landing on her feet and quickly dashes evading Metal Overlord's spike missiles hitting where she stood. Yugi and Mew Ichigo had each other's backs but they knew they had to settle the fight soon.
''RIBBON PLUM SLICE!'' The duo looks up as missiles about to hit their heads were destroyed by Mew Plum's attack joining beside them. She tells the two with a small smirk. ''I also have your backs now go woof!''
Yugi smiles nodding grateful for his older sister's save. He looks at Metal Overlord and orders his team. ''Everyone, let's finish this!''
They eye Yugi and they nod leading his charge coming at Metal Overlord.
''Ultimate Nova!'' Judai shouts commanding as his Neos cups his hands and forms a powerful blue orb, shooting it at full force.
''Dark Mega Raging Flare!'' Jonouchi commands as Sword-Blasting opens its mouth and instantly fires a gigantic dark red fireball at Metal.
Breathing deeply, Danny shouts unleashing his voice wailing attack. ''GHOSTLY WAIL!''
Ed transmutes and bombards a barrage of cannons amplified by Blast Alchemy.
''RASENGAN SUPER BARRAGE!'' Naruto shouts as his clones all shoot over Metal Overlord, each wielding a Rasengan and bombard at the giant machine.
''RIBBON PLUM SLICE!'' Mew Plum shouts firing her white-yellow-purple energy wave from her Plum Saber at Metal.
''GETSUGA TENSHO!'' Forming his Hollow Mask, Kurosaki howls swinging Tensa Zangetsu and instantly fires a tidal wave of the black, red outline burst of energy at the machine.
''BLUE FLAME!'' Alicia shouts pointing the lance and fires a burst of blue flames too.
Yugi forms a Dragon Rasengan as he and Mew Ichigo shout in union overlapping his attack in front of her Strawberry Bell.
''RIBBON DRAGON RASEN-STRAWBERRY BLAST!'' The duo shout firing their combination attack which becomes a massive energy blast that resembles a dragon's face with magical bubbles surrounding it.
The attacks combine and crash on top of Metal Overlord who manages to put up a barrier protecting himself. Sonic isn't going to let Metal get it his way revving his feet rapidly using the Super Peel Out and blasts off at max speed towards the attacks
''SONIC BOOST!'' Sonic shouts dashing at full force into his teammates' attacks and wraps themselves around him as if he's a bullet through flames. Metal Overlord startles trying to suppress their attacks with his barrier but Sonic just smirks breaking through his defense and pierces through his chest, entering all of his friends' attacks in him. Metal gasps out damaging as he explodes from the inside out.
Sonic dashes back to join the others, panting pretty amazed he pulled that off. He eyes the large cloud of smoke that covered where Metal was.
''D-did that work?'' Jonouchi asks hoping they got him. Yugi tries senses him but he couldn't feel his aura since he's a robot.
They watch as the smoke suddenly blows away to reveal Metal Overlord still standing and worst the parts that took heavy were regenerating.
''He can regenerate?!'' Ed complains really pissed off by this unkillable death machine. Sonic actually agrees with the shorty with that.
Metal Overlord lets out a laugh starting to take flight with his repaired wings. ''None of your attempts will ever put me down! I am the ultimate masterpiece, one that can never be defeated!''
Yugi grits his teeth slightly trying to think what they can try. Ed's alchemy didn't work, cutting off his limbs won't work and hitting him really hard won't work either. Everyone is going to dry out of energy noticing Kurosaki's Hollow Mask shattering slowly and Danny panting heavily about to power down again.
''There has to be another way to stop this thing.'' Mew Plum questions not sure what else they can try now. Alicia thinks concerned also not sure and then a thought enters her mind.
''A Valkyria's true power is through Ragnite…'' She mutters to herself, thinking more and realizes with widen eyes that she might have the key to beat him… but if she tries it; she's not coming out of this alive. Biting her lips hesitate to make such a choice, Alicia thinks of Welkin, Squad 7 and all of her friends she made a bond with so much that she can't afford to lose any of them.
Shredding a tear, she's made her choice as she runs off towards Metal Overlord. This surprises the others with Mew Ichigo calling her out concern. ''Alicia-chan!''
Metal Sonic roars firing missiles at the group as well as spread energy blasts from his chest. The group dodges while Alicia still charges while blocking his attacks with her shield. She takes a massive leap, twirling her body as she fires her blue flames to burn down any missiles down.
''I don't know what will happen to me if I use this, but Selvaria was sure if she used it; it would have killed everyone around her including herself.'' Alicia tells herself as she's slowly dropping over Metal. She knows there is no other way to stop this monster.
''Sorry Welkin, everyone, but this has to end.'' She says mentally landing on Metal Overlord's back. She quickly spins her lance until she's holding it upside down and jabs it downward right through Metal's large back. He felt it roaring but then staggered, feeling something building up.
Team Dragon Knight watches in surprised as Metal Overlord starts glowing blue almost fiery. Not just him but Alicia is also glowing if not more.
''What is Alicia doing?'' Danny questions pretty clueless for once. Mew Ichigo watches closer and slowly widens her eyes remembering what Selvaria was attempting to do before and now Alicia is doing it.
''That Final Flame move Nya!'' The cat girl gasps informing the group. Judai also remembers it as he explains it worrying. ''Selvaria was going to try it but then she fell and wasn't able to complete it. She mentioned that attack would finish us.''
Alicia begins to focus as her aura starts becoming more like fire spreading all over her body.
''Alicia-chan is gathering all of her flames for one massive attack but…'' Mew Ichigo tries explaining though she freezes making a face of fear. Yugi eyes her and slowly starts realizing it.
''You don't mean that she-'' Ed, also getting it, starts questioning only to get interrupted by Mew Ichigo begging her boyfriend to stop Alicia. ''Yugi-kun, hurry Nya!''
Yugi nods determine as he takes flight at top speed reaching Alicia instantly. The Valkyria startles seeing him in front of her questioning. ''Yugi-san?''
Yugi tries to approach her but the flames around her were burning hotter shooting upward to the sky.
''Alicia-san, don't do this okay. You can't end your life to put down Metal-kun.'' He asks of her not to proceed with this. Alicia frowns shaking her head in protest replying. ''I can't stop! I can't let him hurt anymore lives!''
Yugi just eyes her almost as if able to tell there's more to that. Alicia frowns looking away rather afraid of herself explaining it. ''Besides, with what I am now… how can I move on with the rest of my life?''
''…'' The young Dragon Knight just stares at her having a feeling as much. She's not wrong to think the way she is but it just reminds him of himself sometimes and why he fights. Smiling Yugi charges forward through the flames, cutting them through with the Dragon Blade and grabs on her shoulder with his free hand.
This shocks Alicia questioning almost scared and upset. ''Hey, what are you-''
''No one is ever normal.'' Yugi interrupts with a small smile. Alicia eyes him as he adds withstanding the flames burning him. ''Alicia-san, we're all unique in our own way. Like you being a bakery, a soldier and a Valkyria and me as a duelist, a Dragon Knight and wield the power of destruction and creation. To us, we're normal.''
Alicia looks at him starting to get what he's telling her, almost forgetting that Yugi is just like her; they have powers that would make people fear and distrust them and yet he didn't care. He just loves his friends, willing to be the way he is for them. She starts realizing her mistake as the flame aura is now burning hotter.
Yugi feels it and nods focusing. Alicia notices a red aura surrounding Yugi and even herself. She then starts feeling the flames slowly leaving her body and transferring over to the young Dragon Knight.
''Yin-Yang Dragon can make sure your body won't overload by gathering all those flames and instead transfer them to me.'' Yugi explains with a small smile though he grunts feeling the flames burning him more. Alicia can see that questioning him scared of his safety. ''W-why are you-''
Yugi just smiles explaining himself honestly. ''Because I'm a good person and a friend.''
Alicia just stares at him speechless by this young man's kindness, willing to get himself hurt or worst for anyone. She blushes, grateful for him.
Yugi focuses feeling the flames burning him more. He can't give up eyeing the Dragon Blade, asking of the dragon within the blade. ''Give me the strength to protect them, Dragon Blade.''
Almost resonating to his will the Dragon Blade glows and starts surrounding its user in a golden aura. Yugi smiles before shouting along with Yin-Yang Dragon with their red dragon eyes glowing. ''STAGE 3!''
(Now Playing OST: Just the Beginning from Kamen Rider Wizard)
In that moment his body erupts in red fiery aura wrapping all of the flames that had wrapped around of Alicia into Yugi. He gasps out letting out a roar like a dragon. ''RAAWWWW!''
Everyone watches as the roaring is actually trying to contain all the flames in his body, covering him.
Metal Overlord isn't going to allow it swiping his tail over his back at the two bugs behind him. Alicia panics not going to be able to move away in time until she suddenly feels herself moving and blinks now on the ground next to the others. She startles eyeing her body and feels much better than fine still in Valkyria mode.
''Yugi-kun…'' Mew Ichigo mutters getting Alicia's attention and looks forward and her eyes widen. It was Yugi, or assumes it is him as his body is wrapped around by both flames though the blue flames began to become dark blue with red not to mention taken into the shape of armor resembling a dragon with horns, wings, claws and even a tail. Even the face is like a mask of some kind almost dragon-like.
''He actually absorbed and nullified the Final Flame.'' Judai utters out really taken back by what just happened. Mew Ichigo just smiles not surprised he pull something crazy out of his butt.
Alicia just stares and she couldn't control herself smiling. She yells at him almost energetic, trusting onto him. ''BEAT HIM NOW YUGI!''
Yugi still surrounded by this flame dragon-like body just nods. Metal Overlord starts scanning and couldn't detect what is surrounding the Dragon Knight, actually worrying the killing machine.
''What is this?!'' He questions angrily demanding to know. Yugi seemingly looks at him, just floating in the air in front of his friends. He then moves a bit forward before vanishing and instantly slashing Metal Overlord right in front of him.
''GAAHH!'' Metal roars actually pushed back by the stronger force of the Dragon Blade, crashing the gigantic machine dragon onto a collapse building.
Yugi swings his left hand forward and squeezes his palm almost instantly tightly that the flames all blown off his body, revealing his real body still in Dragon Blade mode with Yin-Yang Dragon Tailed Mode with 3 tails.
''Just because you have our Data doesn't give you victory! These bonds we share, and of their friends; will ensure our hope and victory!'' The young Dragon Knight with a small smirk tells the evil machine dragon that he won't beat them, ever. He then adds with his eyes glowing serious. ''Let's end this, Metal-kun!''
Metal Overlord did not take that well flying out of the collapse building and roars furious. "Incensing human!''
He starts firing all his missiles at Yugi but he just vanishes and within seconds all the missiles all exploded. Metal quickly tries scanning where he would pop out but instantly Yugi reappears already slashing off his wings. Metal yells trying to regenerating his wings only to start getting his slash all over by Yugi sudden increased speed.
''What's wrong Metal-kun?'' Yugi questions him in a mockery tone. Metal Overlord roars swinging his claw and Yugi intercepts it with the Dragon Blade and pushes it right into his giant face, slamming Metal backwards with his own claw. Metal roars shooting an instant mouth energy blast at him but Yugi dodges so quickly and instant that he slashes face with his blade. Metal roars swinging his claw over and over and each time Yugi dodges it instantly in the last seconds as if Metal was moving in slow motion compare to him.
''And why are you slowing down on me?'' Yugi then asks acting like Sonic in a mocking tone. Metal didn't need to be told he's mimicking him roaring as he swings his claw and seemingly slashes him but it's a mirage with the real Yugi above him.
''Maybe you're just too slow.'' He states with a small smirk basically insulting him. This crossed the line for Metal who roars with his eyes glowing. ''THEN DIE IN FROZEN TIME!''
Mew Ichigo panics hearing that and pretty sure what Metal is referring about but it also causes her to remember something. She pulls it behind her back and it's the Chaos Emerald that Selvaria had. Smiling, the cat girl shouts to her boyfriend tossing the emerald like a baseball at him.''Yugi-kun, catch!''
Yugi, hearing her voice, turns and immediately catches the emerald with his left hand just as Metal Overlord roars. ''CHAOS CONTROL!''
His body starts glowing as time suddenly freezes as did everyone, turning all as a negative color of themselves and everything. Metal laughs proceeding to swipe at the seemingly frozen Yugi except the metal missile nails of his claw are slashed right through by the Dragon Blade. Metal Overlord startles seeing Yugi moving and smirking within the realm of frozen space with his colors remaining the same.
''What?! Impossible!'' Metal declares enrage about to blast him with his mouth energy blast but Yugi stops him raising the glowing blue Chaos Emerald he's holding.
''Chaos Control right back at you!'' Yugi shouts as the emerald glows and Metal is suddenly turned into negative colors, frozen in time stopped. The young Dragon Knight smirks dashing and proceeds to hack-and-slash Metal Overlord all over his body with his rapidly fast speed. Yugi then stops and whistles as 10 seconds passed and time resumes. Everyone and everything moves back to normal speed with Metal Overlord suddenly screams out with sparks flying out all over his body in massive damaged.
Metal gasps out almost like a frightened living being. He looks down at Yugi still smirking and becoming anger just by his face. He starts saying with a voice of fear and rage. ''Y-Your Data… no, how can your Data grow past my limiters! You cannot be this powerful, not to me!''
Yugi hums for a moment not sure how any better he explain his friendship or ''villains never win'' speech.
''I can't really give you another good speech since you don't understand the value of friendship and bonds.'' He tells him honestly really not sure what to tell him now. Instead he declares with a small smirk as he holds the Dragon Blade with both hands. ''Instead, have your calculations translate this.''
Metal Overlord watches as the blade of the Dragon Knight ignites in purple, red outline flames oddly taking the shape of a dragon.
''Roar the dragon of the heavens!'' Yugi begins chanting but Metal Overlord roars not going to allow it firing its destructive mouth blast. However Yugi just smirks as he finishes his chant swinging his blade horizontal. ''DRAGONAUN TENGOKU!''
Swinging at full force, Yugi fires a destructive and massive energy slash quickly wrapping itself and taking the form of a long serpent-like purple energy dragon with large wings. Its red eyes glow as the energy dragon actually roars charging almost with impossible speed right at Metal Overlord while it tears through Metal's mouth blast like air to a windmill.
Metal Overlord quickly puts up defensive barriers surrounding him, planning to block the attack but the energy dragon just rams right through the energy barriers like nothing.
"T-THIS…'' Metal begins uttering trying to breathe its destructive energy blast at the dragon but it just rams right through that too not slowing down.
''C-C-CANNOT…'' Metal continues uttering grabbing on the energy dragon with his claw while blasting it with his chest torso but the dragon just roars devouring into the claw, disintegrate it. Metal Overlord startles trying to blast his flamethrowers but the dragon destroys it too as well as pushing back the chest blast. He yells out as the dragon grinds and slams itself on him.
''BE POSSIBLE!'' Metal Overlord roars furious as the Dragonaun Tengoku swallows and consumes the machine dragon before glowing and explodes in a massive explosion of purple and red lights.
(End of OST)
Yugi pants heavily, the energy shroud vanishing as he still hovers in the air, watching as parts and pieces of Metal Overlord starts dropping from the explosion, crashing on the ground. Sonic whistles really impressive by it.
Smiling brightly, Mew Ichigo screams overjoying. ''YEA YUGI-KUN NYA!''
Everyone else starts cheering out of joy too that Yugi has done it. Mew Plum just smirks seeing her little brother having won. Alicia, reverted back to her normal form, watches this with a small smile finally getting that he is what everyone else assumes of him.
''He really is something else.'' She tells herself still smiling as she also understood what a hero is.
Watching from afar this entire time, Shadow Knight is standing not far ready to jump in if the situation would be too much but it seem he had nothing to worry about as he expected from the Dragon Knight.
''Not bad, Yugi.'' Shadow Knight mentally praises the young man before vanishing away.
The war is finally over. Team Dragon Knight has defeated Metal Overlord and Gallia has been freed. What kind of change will happen through these events?
However…
In the wreckage of Metal Overlord's defeat, dragging himself one arm, Metal Sonic survived though heavily damaged with barely half a body and one limb. He struggles to escape, to plan again, and to take his revenge on Sonic but his energy supply was now at its limit.
No longer able to move, Metal Sonic tries speaking with his voice distorted at the one he will finally defeat. ''S-Sonic…''
Metal Sonic begins to shut down but before he did his scanners pick up something in the shadows. The robot watches as a shadow engulfs over him. He tries shifting his eyes upward and spots the one making the shadow. In that moment, he understood everything.
''I… see now…'' Metal Sonic utters out one last time before he completely shuts down. The shadow over the robot resembling dragon wings consumes him and then seconds later both the shadow and Metal Sonic were gone.
What has happened to Metal Sonic? Who was it that picked him up? And why?
To be continued…
(ENDING 1: Life by Yui from Bleach)
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…
The War between Gallia and the Imperial Empire has ended in victory for our heroes, meaning it was now time for Yugi and Team Dragon Knight to head back home. While they prepare to leave, Alicia, who has learned so much from them, asks them a simple question; one that she is questioning now that she is a Valkyria. Through their answers, Alicia makes a decision and challenges the Dragon Knight to a fight. What kind of answer will come through their fight?
Sonic: Shame we couldn't find Metal's remains, but I'm sure it won't be the last I see of him.
Danny gives him a look: Sometimes your sense of positive and lay back nature might get us killed.
Kurosaki just agrees: At the least this whole mess is over and we can get back to our lives.
Jonouchi sighs: I'm actually going to be happy doing homework now than facing death every day.
Judai: You've guys had a talk with Alicia?
Ichi: Yep. She asked me why I'm with Yugi, well not as a girlfriend, but why I help him in Team Dragon Knight.
Naruto: Me too!
Ed: I wonder why?
Judai grins: Guess there's only one way to find out! Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: The Purpose to Fight!
Ichi grumps: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time Nya as you see the grand finale of this arc Nya!
Author's Note: I love these kinds of chapters where the unity of friends and comrades overcome even the most powerful of foes.
I think most of you, probably 1 or 2, are questioning what kind of change happened during Yugi in his battle against Metal Overlord. There is a reason and it will be revealed in the near future. *COUGH* Volume 6 *COUGH*
Next chapter will be the final part of this first arc HOWEVER… chapter/episode 19 will not be the start of the second arc. Chapter/Episode 20 will be the start of the second arc and another series I have been well holding back. The hint is a Magical Girl series almost everyone should know.
