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 43: The Love that Binds! Defeat Death Phantom!
In the previous episode of DKR:
Yugi recovered as he was informed by Alicia who later told the others what happened to Ichigo and the others. Able to sense something is really wrong, Yugi isn't sure how they get back to the future until Sonic revealed there was a way with Chaos Control and Yugi tried it.
The Sailor Guardians and Ichigo's group struggle somewhat with Black Lady summon two more Black Crystals. Kaiba proceeded his duel against Aigami, still struggling against the Cubics. Regardless, Kaiba overpowered that though Aigami summoned his Dark Cubic Lord.
In a process to revert Chibiusa and Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon used the Moon Stick but with no effect but with Prince Demande he broke free quickly and used this chance to kill Wiseman while Shadow put down Saphir. However the truth behind Wiseman is revealed as Death Phantom and Nemesis as the very planet appeared to crash down on Crystal Tokyo. Sailor Moon tried repelling its attack but it wasn't enough.
Given an ultimatum, Sailor Moon was about to give up her Silver Crystal until Yugi and the others arrived thanks to Chaos Control and he repelled not just Nemesis but broke the trance on Tuxedo Mask, freeing him.
Smirking that his rival showed off, Kaiba prepared to finish his duel against Aigami with Blue Demon the Torment Dragon, destroying the Dark Cubic Lord and beating Aigami. Forced to retreat, Aigami vanished leaving Black Lady with just herself and Nemesis. However Demande used this chance to take her Silver Crystal and prepared to take the Silver Crystal of Sailor Moon to use both… but Sasuke placed him in a Genjutsu beforehand and decided to prevent this timeline from happening he will destroy both Silver Crystals. Before he could, time is suddenly stopped.
What has happened and will this finally come to an end?
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
Time was frozen, colors almost pale, upon everything in the ruins of Crystal Tokyo. Everyone seemed frozen until the colors of Team Dragon Knight and the Sailor Guardians return to normal and they all blink by this.
"H-huh?'' Yugi utters not sure what happened but he isn't complaining as he expels a burst of Yin-Yang Dragon's energy to break free from the white snake that Sasuke used to tie him up. He tosses the thing away after slashing it in case it moves again.
''W-we're okay Nya!'' Mew Ichigo mutters rather relief yet REALLY unease what's going on. Sailor Moon sweats pulling away fast as the Silver Crystal of the future that Prince Demande took earlier from Black Lady almost touch her brooch. She wouldn't want to know what would have happened if both crystals touch each other and then poof, nothing exists.
''J-just barely too.'' Sailor Moon utters really exhausted from this ordeal. She turns and gasps to see Sailor Pluto standing there, rather looking weird like she was sick.
''Are you alright, Sailor Moon?'' Pluto asks of her kindly with weaken eyes. Sailor Moon nods with Mew Ichigo gasping saying. ''Sailor Pluto!''
The rest of Team Dragon Knight stares at her also surprised to find her here. Shadow glares certain she's the one behind time frozen.
''Please take the Silver Crystal he has.'' Pluto asks of Sailor Moon weakly. The Moon Princess notices something was off but nods. She approaches the frozen Demande and carefully takes the Silver Crystal from the future from his hand. Sailor Moon sighs glad neither of the crystals were destroyed or touch each other.
Sailor Pluto sighs of relief as both Sasuke and Black Lady suddenly regain their colors and begin to move confused by what is happening.
''What just-'' Sasuke utters out puzzled by what happened only to get interrupted by a sudden Naruto punching him across the face. The Uchiha is only pushed back slightly by it though the mark of the fist is on his face.
''IDIOT! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW I FELT THAT YOU WERE ON OUR SIDE! YOU-'' Naruto starts yelling furious by his crazy stunt that almost got everyone and the future destroyed but he immediately gets interrupted by Pluto, speaking up weakly. ''He did… what he thought was right.''
Naruto and the others stagger as did Sasuke somewhat. Pluto then explains, holding on herself by her staff looking at Sasuke. ''You are not wrong that the Silver Crystal brings destruction and misery but they shine brightly to bring forth creation and joy to all.''
Sasuke eyes her firmly almost certain something is wrong with her. Pluto just smiles telling the group calmly. ''But I do not blame him for his own past will come full circle and he will walk down a path of both darkness and light soon after.''
The group blinks by that with Sasuke demanding rather unease by what she meant. ''What do you mean by that?''
Sailor Pluto didn't reply as she suddenly drops on her knees and falls on the ground. Everyone startles with Sailor Moon uttering out horrified. ''Pluto-chan!''
Everyone rushes to her with Sasuke staring away as did Black Lady actually looking worry.
Sailor Moon knees down to Pluto who eyes her weakly but smiling, telling the group. ''Queen Serenity placed three taboos I must never break: To time travel, to leave my post at the Space-Time Door…''
''And to stop time.'' Yugi proclaims sadden. Pluto nods softly. Shadow with his arms crossed is speechless by this not by the power… but the drawback. He makes a face muttering out. ''… Seriously?''
Pluto giggles weakly by his expression and informs him softly. ''My power to stop time is superior more than all of the Chaos Emeralds together.''
Normally he would be piss by this, but Shadow cracks a small smirk by those words believing the statement. Sailor Moon though frowns saddened asking her. ''Then why would you risk your life, Pluto?''
Sailor Pluto eyes her and reveals her reasons. ''I was always told to obey the rules place on me when I became a Sailor Guardian, but seeing all of you place your lives to protect what is more important; I too wanted to help.''
She then eyes Yugi, having told him of his somewhat faith and yet that didn't stop him continuing his fight to do what's right, even learning a move he shouldn't have learned this soon. Having witness something not even she could see is impossible, so it's possible he could change his fate… and maybe she can too.
''I also wanted to change fate and I did. One's fate is never determined, we are the ones who can change it.'' Pluto states softly happy she learned that from him. Yugi smiles back but sad responding back, not wanting her to die like this. ''Pluto-kun, I will change your fate too. I promised your death will not end like this!''
Pluto just smiles by his words, believing he will. She looks towards her fellow Guardians all sad to see her dying, even her king who wishes he could have done more.
''I'm sorry to all of you, to you King Endymion, to Neo-Queen Serenity…'' Sailor Pluto begins proclaiming sadden, shredding a tear trying to turn towards the one person she cares for from the bottom of her heart. ''And especially to Small Lady.''
Black Lady widens her eyes to hear, not thinking Pluto would care for her that much.
''P-Pluto…'' She utters out trying to raise her right arm to Pluto slowly turning towards her but suddenly stops and closes her eyes. She stopped moving shocking the group. Mew Ichigo checks her pulse but frowns sadden for her passing. The others soon frown able to tell she's done.
''She died protecting what she had; a friend.'' Kurosaki states respecting her hope to protect what was more important. Shadow, reminded of Maria's death and how it's impossible to forget those who left, nods firmly proclaiming with his arms uncrossed on his side. ''I won't ever forget you; the Sailor Guardian who died by stopping time once.''
''…'' Everyone is left speechless by that comment almost like a diss. Jonouchi makes a face and questions him really surprised. ''Wow, seriously?''
''Was that really necessary?'' Yugi asks sweat dropping. Shadow scoffs, not daring to reply by his poorly spoken words.
This leaves the group more speechless with Danny commenting taken back. ''Who knew a grumpy hedgehog could pull one of those off.''
Sonic grins in agreement, really showing a new side to the black hedgehog. Shadow grunts angrily stating upset. ''You're all rubbing on me.''
Yugi and Mew Ichigo sweat drop smiling sort of agreeing with him. Though Shadow frowns, not planning to ever forget her, Sailor-
''PLUTO!'' Everyone startles to turn to see Black Lady screaming in pain as she shreds tears of sadness. In that instant the Silver Crystal of the future in Sailor Moon's hand reacts and flies out of her hand.
''Woah!'' Sailor Moon gasps as the crystal flies to Black Lady and engulfs her in a white light. This shocks everyone with King Endymion, amazed, informs the group. ''Small Lady's power has awakened.''
Everyone watches as emerging in a leaping position is the regular kiddish Chibiusa but now wearing a sailor suit that is colored bright pink and has red-and-white barrettes on her bright pink bunhead odango pigtails. Her gloves are white with bright pink ends and cover most of her arms as well as pink boots. She also has the white feather-like hair pins on both sides of her front hair much like Sailor Moon's. She also has on a pink collar neck with the bright yellow crescent moon mark on the middle with a tiara on her forehead.
Sailor Moon and the other Sailor Guardians gasp amazingly as did the others.
''She looks so adorable Nya!'' Mew Ichigo utters out purring. Yugi smiles nodding as she says happily. ''This is Chibiusa-kun's real self.''
Ed oddly smirks agreeing with that. Chibi Moon eyes herself rather taken back but smiles.
''GOD DAMN IT! WHY?!'' Everyone staggers turning to see Jonouchi yelling out almost like in pain.
''What's wrong?!'' Sailor Jupiter asks worried if the time stop has ended. It wasn't the case as Jonouchi drops on his knees, muttering sadden. ''Why…''
This causes the group to be unease with Kurosaki demanding very hesitate. ''Why what?''
He didn't answer as he slams his right fist on the ground.
''WHY DID SHE REVERT BACK TO A LITTLE GIRL?!'' Jonouchi yells out enrage to what had happened to his life.
''…'' Everyone stares speechless by that especially Mew Ichigo, Kurosaki, Ed and Alicia making the worst stunned expression. Chibi Moon blushes really red recalling a bit of Black Lady but not much… she did felt sexier in a sense.
''SHE WAS SO MUCH HOTTER AS A YOUNG WOMAN! WHY?!'' Jonouchi continues complaining furious while punching his fist on the ground. He then curses out living with a life with no super hottie that could complete his existence. ''WHY DO YOU MOCK US GOD! SHE WAS PERFECT! AT LEAST KEEP HER AGE AND SEXINESS GOING INTO THIS! GOD DAMN IT! WHY?!''
"…'' Everyone is speechless though Kaiba made a fact of disgust and Shadow is staggered by how stupid this is. Sasuke felt the same, debating now that Naruto isn't a complete idiot compared to this one.
''What the hell is wrong with you?!'' Kurosaki and Alicia along with the other Sailor Guardian minus Mercury sweat dropping shout in union.
Sailor Chibi Moon blushes though she forms a frown turning to the dead Sailor Pluto. She begins to cry wishing she was alive to see her now like her mom, a Sailor Guardian.
''Pu…'' She mutters sadden for this. Ed stands beside her and pats her head. Chibi Moon looks at him as he tells her smiling. ''She would be proud of you, Chibi.''
''Ed-chan…'' Sailor Chibi Moon mutters still sadden. Ed knows how she feels and comforts her. ''Don't let her death be in vain.''
Chibi Moon eyes him and nods determined, responding just as strong. ''I won't.''
Ed, smiling, nods knowing she will. Jonouchi grunts not caring anymore asking of Yugi badly. ''I f**king hate today! Yugi, just get rid of that damn stupid planet! I need to be alone after this… and remember Black Lady a little more.''
''…'' Everyone makes a face again not sure how to react.
''R-right.'' Yugi responds sweat dropping heavily though he plans to finish this.
After that, time resumes immediately. Demande begins to move free from Sasuke's Genjutsu and stunned by what just happened.
Death Phantom was the same puzzled until he spots Sailor Chibi Moon and declares very disappointed. ''What is the meaning of this Black Lady. You choose to go back being a weakling for her.''
The little Sailor Guardian frowns as the demonic planet spots the dead Sailor Pluto. He then declares mocking her sacrifice. ''She was nothing compare to your power! We could have gained everything. Instead you will die and join her''
Sailor Chibi Moon frowns even sadden that he's right but then she feels a touch from her shoulder. She turns as it was Yugi who had kneeled down, smiling at her. She blushes as Yugi stands back up and steps forward, gazing rather coldly and furious at Nemesis.
''Chibiusa-kun was never weak; all she wanted was a friend and she did.'' The young Dragon Knight begins to proclaim looking back Pluto's dead body and glares back at Death Phantom adding in a determine. ''Pluto-kun had no one too until she met Chibiusa-kun and became happy. Through their bond, they became stronger. Someone like you who is wrapped by your bitter hate and darkness could never understand the real Chibiusa and the sacrifice Pluto made! That is their power that overshadows yours!''
Chibi Moon blushes astonished as did the others. Death Phantom's energy-like face on the planet glares furious down towards the tricolor head and proclaims angry. ''You dare insult me human! What are you?!''
Striking a small smirk, Yugi lifts forward responding rather heroic. ''I'm just the one who will change fate, the Dragon Knight!''
Everyone eyes him and smile nodding. Yugi then adds with a serious glare towards the evil planet. ''And you're going to be beaten down here and now, Death Phantom-kun!''
The dark planet releases dark energy as the energy-like face of Death Phantom howls furious at the boy's words. Yugi glares not even afraid as everyone else of Team Dragon Knight stand together.
"For the pain Chibiusa-chan is feeling, for Pluto-chan, for everyone hurt for your pity revenge…'' Sailor Moon begins to say stepping forward and shouts out heroic. ''I too will never forgive!''
The other Sailor Guardians and Tuxedo Mask smile standing right beside her too.
'' I am the Pretty Guardian who fights for love and Justice, Sailor Moon! And now in the name of Moon, I'll punish you!'' The legendary Sailor Moon, posing her signature double finger position.
Death Phantom howls even more vowing furious. "THEN YOU ALL WILL DIE HERE!''
Sailor Moon glares not fearing him as Tuxedo Mask stands beside her, showing her cracked Cutie Moon Rod. She blushes receiving it. Even though it looked damage, this still symbolized the love between each other and she won't forget that.
''Shall we, Usako?'' Tuxedo Mask asks her smiling softly. She eyes him and nods happily replying. ''Let's win together, Mamo-chan.''
Raising her cracked rod at Nemesis, Sailor Moon shouts as her body glows. ''MOON PRINCESS HALATION!''
''Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber!'' Tuxedo Mask shouts raising his right palm hand forward. The two unleash their attacks forward to the planet.
Each Sailor Guardian stares at each other and nod.
''SHINE AQUA ILLUSION!'' Sailor Mercury shouts holding her hands together, forming a sphere of water and unleashes it as a blast.
''BURNING MANDALA!'' Sailor Mars shouts forming 9 fireballs around her and thrusts them forward.
''SUPREME THUNDER!'' Sailor Jupiter shouts releasing a burst of electricity from her tiara.
''VENUS LOVE-ME CHAIN!'' Sailor Venus shouts swinging her golden engulfed whip forward actually extending long.
''Let's go, everyone!'' Yugi commands his group with a small smirk as he forms a Dragon Clone without hand signs.
Ed quickly claps his hands, raising them up and instantly fires a blast of Blast Alchemy at the planet.
''GHOSTLY WAIL!'' Danny shouts breathing back and letting out a powerful ghostly wail-like shout.
''BLUE FLAME!'' Alicia shouts pointing her lance and releases a burst of destructive blue flames.
Shadow erupts in the glow aura of Chaos Boost, shouting as he swings his right arm upward. ''CHAOS LANCE!''
He fires a powerful golden energy-like lance forward.
''BLUE TORNADO!'' Sonic shouts spinning so fast he fires a powerful blue energy tornado.
Judai fuses both Neos and Yubel to create Neos Wiseman as he commands. ''Go Neos Wiseman! Ultimate Nova!''
Neos Wiseman fires multiple energy blasts across her body towards the evil planet.
Kaiba huffs summoning his Blue-Eyes White Dragons and fuses them into the mighty Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
''Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, destroy! Hyper Ultimate Burst!'' Kaiba orders as his three-headed dragon fires a destructive three mouth blast.
Jonouchi does the same bringing out Red-Eyes Black Dragon with Gearfried the Red-Eyes Iron Knight, fusing them into Red-Eyes Slash Dragon and commands. ''Go Red-Eyes Slash Dragon, Dark Mega Slash!''
The black metal armored dragon roars swinging its tail blade and releases a destructive dark fiery energy wave from.
Kurosaki swipes his head with his left hand, forming his Hollow Mask instantly and he howls swinging upward with his black blade. ''GETSUGA TENSHO!''
He swings his black blade and fires a massive black, red outline wave of a crescent energy slash.
Suddenly a Dragon Clone of Yugi appears beside him as both begin to create a Dragon Rasengan while Ichigo charges her energy into her Strawberry Rose Bell.
''RIBBON DRAGON RASEN-STRAWBERRY BLAST!'' Both Yugi and Ichigo shouted in union, crossing their attacks as the Ribbon Strawberry Surprise goes through the Dragon Rasengan and comes out bigger, taking the form of an energy dragon.
All the attacks fly up towards Nemesis. Naruto, sweating dropping being the only one, grunts upset that he doesn't have a long range attack so he summons a Fuma Shuriken with Explosive Tags and throws it upward towards the planet… but the shuriken couldn't reach further and drops through the Getsuga Tensho, vaporizing it.
''Huh? So my only technique beats your lack of long range attacks.'' Kurosaki still wearing his Hollow Mask says with a distorted voice says rather amazed his only technique out beats the ninja with more techniques. Naruto sweat drops heavily as Sasuke comments with his arms crossed. ''Ironic.''
The attacks all hit the planet at the same time, causing a powerful burst that affects that part of the sky to form dark clouds. However Nemesis emerges from all of those attacks far from damaged.
''Not even your combine attacks can ever-'' Death Phantom declares preparing to crash itself on the planet only to notice sparks flying around the clouds surrounding him. Smirking, Sasuke says raising his right hand up to the sky. ''Thanks for the thunder. KIRIN!''
With a single stroke, the electricity flies into becoming the massive thunder dragon and roars ramming itself upon Nemesis, exploding it nstantly. Everyone watches amazed especially Chibi Moon eyeing Sasuke.
''Calling us even.'' Sasuke says to the small Sailor Guardian for his mistake back then. Sailor Chibi Moon smiles, accepting his apology as they all make mistakes.
Soon the smoke reveals no Nemesis over the planet.
''W-we got him now. Right?'' Jonouchi asks hoping that worked. Yugi was about to speak up pretty likely only to sense something REALLY wrong. Soon everyone immediately finds themselves in a twisted dark red dimension that goes into infinite.
''NEVER MIND!'' The dirty colored blond headed panics horrified by where they are. Soon dark energy gathers before them, taking form the face of Death Phantom.
''Behold my true form mortals!'' Death Phantom proclaims evilly and loud. Everyone startles with Jonouchi muttering out with a stun expression. ''Okay…''
''NOW DIE, SAILOR MOON!'' Death Phantom declares releasing a powerful blast towards Sailor Moon. The Moon Princess panics trying to counter with her Cutie Moon Rod but before she could Prince Demande intercepts getting in front and tanks the blast. He screams in pain with everyone shocked by this.
''Demande!'' Sailor Moon screams in terror. Demande yells in pain, still standing in ground feeling himself dying but he didn't care. He had no one left, was used and tricked.
''I-I refuse to allow this demon, who used me and my people, to end your beauty.'' Demande declares turning to see the past self of the beautiful queen he desired, accepting he can't have her but at least her beauty will live on forever.
''Demande…'' Sailor Moon mutters sadden. Demande, smiling, proclaims his final words. ''Farewell, Neo-Queen Serenity...''
The blast soon consumes the Black Moon prince and vaporizes him completely, ending his life. This shocks the group he actually did that.
''H-he actually…'' Tuxedo Mask utters not believing he risk his life for her. Yugi frowns sadden stating, understanding why he did it. ''He lost everything. He had nothing else to live on for.''
Sailor Moon sobs not wanting him to die like this. Even if he brought pain to others, he at least did it for his people.
Death Phantom just laughs at the death of the Prince Demande proclaiming. ''Foolish prince, you and your people were all pawns of mines. Your usefulness has ended long ago.''
The group glares at him especially Naruto squeezing his fists angrily.
''Damn bastard…'' The spiky blond headed utters out causing everyone to gaze at him. Even though he had been the enemy, even after all he has done; this was not fair for him to die like this.
''They tried to fight for something and maybe if it wasn't the right thing, they believed in it right to the end. And you used them, had them killed and made Chibiusa-chan suffer including Usagi-chan and Pluto-chan.'' Naruto begins muttering, frustrated by how many suffered and die by this psychopath wanting nothing but revenge. This rage built up as Naruto shouts, revealing he's in his Kyuubi State with his red demonic-like fox eyes. ''I WON'T FORGIVE YOU!''
Naruto crosses his fingers right away as he creates two Shadow Clones and the real one with one of the clones start gathering energy in the palm of the other clone. Yugi and the others of Team Dragon Knight watch this feeling the sharp sound that is being make, knowing it too well.
''This vibration.''Sasuke says mentally never feeling anything like this before. He watches closely and slowly widens his Sharingan eyes at what Naruto was creating right before him.
''WIND RELEASE!'' Naruto starts declaring as his clone raising his right hand gripping on a massive wind energy-like shaped Fuma Shuriken, spinning. ''RASENSHURIKEN!''
Everyone not aware of this technique is speechless by it. Naruto then shouts as his clone leaps towards Death Phantom. ''JUDAI, ALICIA, YUGI, ICHI, MARS, SASUKE! I NEED FIRE!''
Judai blinks not following it until the fire part hit him. Smirking, he had Neos Wiseman split back to Neos and Yubel as he also summons Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab and Grand Mole and Contact Fusion them with Neos as Magma Neos.
''Go Magma Neos! Super Heat Meteor!'' Judai commands as Magma Neos creates its massive fireball and throws it forward.
Getting the idea somewhat, Alicia follows shouting as she points her lance forward. ''BLUE FLAME!''
''DRAGONAUN BURNING!'' Getting the plan, Yugi does the same shouting as he fires a massive purple fiery sphere from the tip of his Dragon Blade.
''BURNING MANDALA!'' Sailor Mars follows as she creates 9 more fireballs and throws them forward.
''FIRE RELEASE: GREAT FIREBALL TECHNIQUE!'' Both Mew Ichigo and Sasuke shout inhaling back and breathing out powerful large fireballs forward.
All the fire attacks all come behind the clone Naruto thrusting the Rasenshuriken forward. Death Phantom tries blasting the clone and almost did but it was too late as the fire attacks all hit him first and the Wind Release technique. To the now living planet, Death Phantom watches as the Rasenshuriken reacts to the flames all hitting it and immediately explodes in a massive range, consuming over a quarter of the planet in it.
Sasuke watches this and smirks actually impressed stating. ''Clever. Fire overpowers Wind.''
''And then both elements become stronger and faster!'' Mew Ichigo says getting Naruto's plan, very amazed he came up with it. Naruto nods grinning as he actually corrects them.
''But futile!'' Shouting through the suicide clone Rasenshuriken is Death Phantom, partly damaged. The group startles as did Naruto not prepared for that. He yells out really annoyed and stunned. ''AW COME ON!''
Death Phantom then yells furious by their attempts to stop him. ''You can never erase me!''
Frowning angrily as she squeezes on her cracked rod, Sailor Moon refuses to let this monster continue doing more harm protesting determine. ''Wrong! I won't let bring more sorrow to everyone!''
Death Phantom howls as Sailor Moon leaps towards him, shouting as her Silver Crystal glows from her brooch. The others startled as Tuxedo leaps right behind her shouting. ''Usako!''
Death Phantom swings a hand at the Sailor Guardian only for her to release her power and everything is surrounded in light. Everyone covers their eyes as the light expands.
Next thing everyone knew they begin to realize they were back where they were in reality in the wasted Crystal Tokyo. They blink checking rather taken back on what just happened.
''W-what the f**k just happened?'' Jonouchi utters out not sure what the heck happened. Shadow eyes him and scoffs adding. ''I agreed.''
''Death Phantom must have been sent back to Nemesis.'' King Endymion suggests not able to feel his dark presence over the planet. Jonouchi lets out a sigh of relief about that but not Mew Ichigo looking around but not seeing her cousin or her boyfriend.
''Where's Usagi-chan and Mamoru-kun?'' The cat girl questions out getting the other Sailor Guardians and Chibi Moon to notice this. Mew Ichigo frowns worried turning towards her tricolor head and says very concerning. ''Yugi-kun.''
Yugi nods aware what she wants for him, focusing on Usagi and Mamoru's aura. He couldn't sense them on the planet but he did feel them FAR away from it, to where Nemesis was previously. This horrifies the young Dragon Knight informing the group. ''I don't know how but they're where Nemesis is!''
This shocks everyone especially cat girl uttering out. ''What Nya?! How!''
King Endymion frowns fearing Death Phantom rather wishes to put an end to Sailor Moon now than later. Sailor Chibi Moon worries wishing she can get to where they are.
''We have to get to them somehow Nya!'' Mew Ichigo states really scared of her cousin's condition or how is she supposed to survive in space. Her answers would be answered by a familiar voice speaking towards her. ''Don't worry, Cousin Ichigo-chan.''
The cat girl startles turning as she utters. ''Usagi-chan?''
The group turns and there emerging from Crystal Palace is Usagi's future self, Neo-Queen Serenity, finally awaken.
''Neo-Queen Serenity.'' Each Sailor Guardian mutters out rather taken back to see their leader, their princess' future self and looks even more beautiful than before. Chibi Moon rushes over towards her shouting. ''Mama!''
She hugs her mother sobbing happily yet sad. She begs of her still sobbing, gripping on her lovely dress. ''Mama… I'm sorry.''
Neo-Queen Serenity smiles warmly as she pets her hair, knowing well she didn't mean what she did as Black Lady. That was merely Death Phantom's influence that wrapped her kind daughter and her saddened heart.
''It's okay Small Lady.'' She tells her daughter, admitting to her with a smile of a proud mother. ''I'm only happy to see you finally going to take on my mantle, Sailor Chibi Moon.''
Chibi Moon startles by her mother's words but couldn't resist smiling out of love. King Endymion smiles also smiles proud of her too as he tells the group. ''That is how my queen was able to reawaken due to Small Lady finally becoming the new Sailor Guardian and the true princess of the future Moon Kingdom.''
Everyone just nod oddly finding that very possible with the whole second in line of Sailor Moon title.
''Good job, Chibi.'' Ed proclaims smiling how well Chibi finally got what she wanted; to be like her mom.
Neo-Queen Serentity turns to see the dead body of Sailor Pluto. She frowns wishing she had the power to remove the taboo placed on her but she couldn't as much as she tried. She kneels down, placing her right hand on her chest.
''Sorry Pluto, I owe you so much.'' The beautiful moon queen apologizes to her, wishing she could have done more. The body of Sailor Pluto glows and turns into energy flying into the Crystal Palace. The queen stands up eyeing her beloved still in spirit form and tells him he can return to his soon awakening body. ''Go back to your body, my king.''
King Endymion nods as his spiritual form vanishes and becomes an orb shooting into the palace to where his real body is at.
Alicia coughs loudly reminding the older Usagi. ''Um I know you just woke up, but aren't you worried that your past self is with that evil planet thing.''
Neo-Queen Serenity eyes her and simply responds with a calm smile. ''I am not worry. After all, I know Sailor Chibi Moon can help them.''
Sailor Chibi Moon blinks awkwardly by that as her mother hands her very rod. The little Sailor Guardian startles being given her mother's old Cutie Moon Rod. She looks at her who Neo-Queen Serenity still smiles happily as if trusting her. Sailor Chibi Moon slowly forms a smile and accepts her mother's wishes, stating joyfully. ''Right!''
The rod shines and Sailor Chibi Moon teleports away before anyone knew what happened.
Mew Ichigo frowns wanting to get to where her cousin was too, stating it. ''Wish we can help out too Nya.''
Yugi eyes her and could tell she wants to help her cousin. Smiling, he got an idea grabbing on her by the waist and pulling her next to her.
''Nya?'' The cat girl utters out surprised. Yugi smiles at her and tells her confident. ''Let's go save them without wasting time!''
Placing his left index and middle fingers on his forehead, Yugi suddenly vanishes along with Mew Ichigo. The others startled greatly by this while Neo-Queen Serenity smiles not surprised.
Both Yugi and Mew Ichigo blink very terrified finding themselves teleported in the middle of space. They panic as the cat girl pulls out her Strawberry Bell and surrounds both of them in its barrier, breathing temporary air.
''G-give me a warning next time Nya!'' Mew Ichigo yells out panicking that they could have died in the emptiness of space. Yugi chuckles nervously. The cat girl growls about to say something but then a voice calls out to her. ''Cousin Ichigo-chan!''
Mew Ichigo blinks awkwardly turning as did Yugi to spot Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask in their own portal with Chibi Moon in there. The cat girl purrs happily waving at her.
''W-wait, how did you two get here?'' Sailor Chibi Moon questions on how the heck they arrived here. Yugi blushes changing subject as he points with his finger. ''Let's worry about him first.''
Mew Ichigo blinks turning to that direction and panics to see the massive form of the planet Nemesis and Death Phantom's energy-like demonic face.
''It doesn't matter how many of you there are! YOU WILL ALL NOW BE CONSUMED BY MY POWER!'' Death Phantom proclaims going to finally achieve his revenge and rule all. Sailor Moon stares serious not going to allow him to do what he wants after all the pain he caused so many, even the rest of his own clad.
''While I still stand, I will always protect everyone!'' The Sailor Guardian of the Moon declares pointing her cracked Cutie Moon Rod at him. Sailor Chibi Moon eyes her and nods smiling adding also pointing her Cutie Moon Rod forward. ''And we will do it together!''
Mew Ichigo watches smiling to see Tuxedo Mask standing behind but supporting Sailor Moon and Chibi Moon gathering all of their power together, almost like a family. She blushes oddly wanting that.
''MOON PRINCESS HALATION!'' Both Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon shout pointing their rods and both fire a powerful blast of light from them. The two attacks blast through the barrier it was still protecting them, striking Nemesis. Death Phantom yells out in pain trying to push their attacks back.
''You will not erase me! I shall conquer this world and leave everything in darkness and destruction!'' Death Phantom declares going to achieve his goals. Sailor Moon and Chibi Moon struggle trying to push back harder. The cat girl worries but then feels her hand being touched. She turns to see Yugi holding her and smiles confident. She blushes at him and nods fill with confidence too.
''But you're still going to lose Nya!'' Mew Ichigo suddenly speaks up at the evil planet as she summons her Mew Aqua Hope Rod. Yugi nods adding determine pointing his Dragon Blade forward. ''Because until we can make all of our futures come true...''
Holding on each other's hand, the two engulf in purple-pink energy around each other. Death Phantom staggers feeling that as the two yell out in union. ''WE WILL KEEP ON FIGHTING FOR EVERYONE!''
Both Yugi and Mew Ichigo cross their Dragon Blade and Mew Aqua Hope Rod together as a burst of purple-red and pink energy wrap around themselves and their weapons. They then shout in unity pointing their crossed weapons towards Nemesis. ''DRAGONAUN-RIBBON EMPATHIC SHINING!''
In an instant their weapons fire and unleashed a powerful and massively larger version of the Dragonaun Tengoku except it was surrounded by the pink, bubble-like energy of the Ribbon Aqua Drop Explosions, even its dragon wings shaped like one half of a heart each. The energy dragon roars rushing at unbelievable speed towards Nemesis and pierces through it.
This horrifies Death Phantom as the dragon crushes through more of the planet letting the double Moon Princess Halation to blast into it. The two attacks strike the core soon after, causing the planet to glow violently about to explode.
''THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING?!'' Death Phantom starts yelling as Nemesis explodes, destroying the planet along with Death Phantom as his soul is rip through by the energy dragon.
Yugi smiles as Mew Ichigo leans on him panting heavily, not expecting that to work but it did. She smiles shouting out happily. "We did it Nya!''
The young Dragon Knight smiles back nodding. However their moment to celebrate is cut off by Tuxedo Mask shouting. ''USAKO!''
The couple startles turning to see Sailor Moon dropping and sadly reverting back to an unconscious Usagi with both Cutie Moon Rods and her brooch shattered. This horrifies Mew Ichigo yelling out of concern. ''Cousin Usagi-chan!''
Death Phantom is finally defeated once and for all. However, what will happen next?
Commercial Break:
Jonouchi: Man… I miss Black Lady now. Like at least kept her sexy older form.
Kurosaki shakes his head in shame: I'm not getting involved, at all!
A few hours passed since the defeat of Death Phantom as everyone is resting within the Crystal Palace. Some stare outside to see the restored Crystal Tokyo and its citizen. They startled how normal everything looked and too beautiful as well.
''So the ugly planet is actually dead-dead, right?'' Naruto asks really hoping that thing is no more. Yugi answers him carefree. ''Yup. Death Phantom-kun is no more.''
''But Usagi's transformation broach was destroyed in the process Nya.'' Ichi says at first pretty sad but then reveals with a small smile. ''Though her future-self created a new one for her past self. So not so sad Nya!''
''And we got power ups too!'' Sailor Venus declares happily as she and the other Sailor Guardians show their power ups they got from Neo-Queen Serenity. The group nods with Jonouchi drooling though Ed makes a face and simply says not so impressed. ''… Don't see the difference.''
This stuns all the Sailor Guardians as well as Luna and Artemis. Ed just grunts at all of this announcing. ''I'm still bugged about this. We're in the future and now the world is restored thanks to Future Usagi's stupidly god powers.''
Ichigo nods but happily they witnessed her cousin's future-self's powers first hand.
''Why does this bug you so much? We saved the world dude.'' Danny says really relief they saved this world from destruction and humanity too. Kurosaki and Alicia nod as did Sonic laying on the back of his head on the ground.
Ed grunts again explaining himself. ''But we changed the future and even the past. It concerns me with the logic to know one's future no less alternating it too.''
Almost everyone did agree they did change the future but it didn't matter, especially to Yugi, Danny and Judai who experience the good of changing the timeline.
''Well look at it like this, we changed fate.'' Sailor Mars actually says eyeing Judai who grins. Sailor Jupiter nods speaking up smiling. ''Just like Yugi said, we're not bound by fate. We can change it.''
''So Edward-san, we don't mind this. You shouldn't too.'' Sailor Mercury reasons with Ed who sighs and accepts though not happy. ''I guess so.''
''Yep! Everything is better now, at least for now.'' Sailor Venus adds with a small wink, though she sweat drops that she might have jinx everyone. Judai chuckles nodding as he eyes Danny and says. ''You should know.''
Danny raises an eyebrow and questions him. ''What does that mean?''
''Just figuring some stuff out. Jazz and I talk.'' Judai replies happy going which startles Danny like he knows of that. ''… Oh…''
Just then Usagi returns with Mamoru, speaking up happily. ''Hey guys!''
The group turns to see them and spot the new brooch on Usagi's chest bow on her sailor school uniform. It was similar to the Crystal Star, slightly larger, with the color design except it was pinker with bright yellow golden cross over it and a tiny crown decoration on top of it.
''That's the Cosmic Heart Compact. With it, I can transform into a stronger Sailor Moon-'' Usagi begins to say only to get interrupted by Kurosaki stating. ''That will likely look the same as the last one.''
Everyone soon becomes silent causing Kurosaki to realize everyone is staring at him especially Ichigo and the other Sailor Guardians glaring at him. He sweats coughing loudly correcting himself. ''Never mind.''
Usagi giggles not minding it as she asks curious. ''So do we have to go now? I wanted to see my future self.''
''YOU CAN'T.'' Ed immediately shouts furious causing Usagi to gasp in terror hiding behind Mamoru sweat dropping. Everyone blinks as the young alchemist explains again. ''Meeting your future self can change the past and I will not be responsible for the damage of the time-space continuum!''
''AW, but I wanna!'' Usagi says wanting to see her future self so badly. King Endymion steps forward, now in real body, as he sadly says. ''It's for the best you don't.''
The group eyes him as he thanks them all. ''I and the queen are both thankful for everything you all have done.''
Yugi smiles as Sonic answers for him. ''It was the least of our worries.''
''What will happen with Pluto gone?'' Sailor Mercury asks wondering how time will be protected with Pluto gone or them returning to their time. King Endymion nods answering her. ''Neo-Queen Serenity can use her power to access time and we still have the Space-time Key to take you all back.''
''Nay.'' Sonic states holding up his Chaos Emerald as he adds eyeing Shadow. ''We can get back the old way. This time Shadow and I do it.''
Shadow likes that idea actually praising him. ''Hmph, interesting idea. I want to try it.''
Sonic grins at that and just responds very mysterious. ''Oh you have no idea.''
The black hedgehog gazes at him suspicious he knows more than he says but before he could Kaiba immediately speaks up having been quite but wants answers of his company. ''And what of Kaiba Corporation! How is my company!''
King Endymion staggers a bit while everyone else sweat drops by Kaiba's ego for his company wellbeing in the future. The king isn't sure what to tell him as there are no companies in the future. This obviously upsets Kaiba greatly.
''… This was a waste of time.'' He mutters with his arms crossed, regretting his choice to even come here. He then feels his coat being tugged and he turns to see it was Chibiusa.
''Um…'' The small pink pigtail girl tries muttering not scared but shyly, ultimately saying with a bow. ''Thank you.''
''… Sure.'' Kaiba kindly answers her at least being modest that he would help a child needed help. Yugi smiles that even though he's cold and sinister… and very determine to be the best; Kaiba does have a heart and does care for children.
The group heads outside as Sonic asks Shadow. ''Ready?''
The black hedgehog simply pulls out his red Chaos Emerald, confirming it.
Sonic and Shadow raise their Chaos Emeralds up close to each other and shout in union. ''CHAOS CONTROL!''
The emeralds shine and glow as a large blueish portal opens up before them.
''Papa, I'll go with them.'' Chibiusa informs the king with a determine smile, wanting to bid her proper farewell with them. King Endymion forms a smile able to see his daughter having matured. He nods as Chibiusa smiles and tells the grey kitten beside him. ''Diana, I'll return soon.''
Diana purrs hoping to happily. Chibiusa smiles that before the group went into the portal a voice yells out at them. ''WAIT!''
The groups stop knowing that voice turning. Usagi turns last and gasps speechless to see her future self.
''Neo-Queen Serenity!'' Everyone utters out amazingly to see her except Ed who mutters really disappointed. ''Great… the future will surely change after this.''
Usagi ignores running towards her future self who did the same, both holding hands happily to finally meet the other.
Jonouchi hums as he eyes Mew Ichigo and tells her wanting to be honest. ''Your cousin is still hot in the future.''
The cat girl snaps and kicks her right foot immediately into his crotch. Jonouchi gasps out in massive pain screaming as he drops and spins around on the ground. ''WHAT THE HELL MOMOMIYA!''
Mew Ichigo purrs smirking, missing that.
''I'm so happy to finally meet you.'' Usagi tells her future self so happy to see her like this than when she was imprison. She blushes vowing to her smiling. ''I too will become strong like you.''
Neo-Queen Serenity just smiles correcting her kindly. ''You already are strong. I know that better than anyone.''
Usagi giggles trusting her word. The queen then says handing her something special for losing her Cutie Moon Rod. ''Have this, as my token of my gratitude.''
The young pigtailed blonde blinks eyeing the magical rod she's being handed over. It was a rod similar to the Cutie Moon Rod but much larger with the wings replaced with a golden ribbon bow with the Moon Kingdom's symbol on it and the top is a large golden heart with pink inner portions with a crown also on the tip and the middle having a pink crystal gem. The bottom part just has a golden hilt.
''This is the Spiral Heart Moon Rod. This will help you from now on.'' Neo-Queen Serenity reveals smiling adding. ''Use it wisely, Usagi.''
Usagi eyes her and nods vowing her. ''I will.''
She accepts the rod, blushing as she'll use this power to protect all those she cares for. Neo-Queen Serenity smiles turning to face the tricolor head.
''Dragon Knight Yugi.'' She calls towards him getting Yugi's attention. He eyes her as the queen bows apologizing. ''Sorry.''
''… Huh?'' Yugi utters out very puzzled by what she means by that. The queen, still smiling calmly, explains herself. ''I might have been dormant but I did listen to what you told my king.''
Ed eyes Chibiusa who blushes having told him of how she last saw Pluto was when she was acting rather strange with her father alone. The young alchemist had a feeling what it was as he speaks up. ''Or how your king and Pluto-''
King Endymion widens his eyes panicking while Neo-Queen Serenity lets out a loud awkward laugh, interrupting him. ''Hahaha, she just really admires him! Hahaha!''
Ed sweat drop as did the others even Usagi by her future self's reacting like herself. Ichi sweat drops too though heavily, muttering out. ''That's my cousin alright.''
Usagi blushes red as did her future self who calms down and resumes to Yugi. ''But remember, this might not be your future. Anything can happen, even changing this future too.''
Yugi nods smiling though he asks her curious. ''Then do you know anything about our real future?''
Neo-Queen Serenity frowns replying. ''Only Pluto knew and even so the future can always change, for better or for worst.''
The tricolor frowns a bit, wondering if his future has changed a bit. Regardless, he promised himself he won't die and he'll make sure it won't happen.
''I only wish you luck for the challenges up ahead.'' Neo-Queen Serenity tells not just Yugi but everyone else kindly for all they've done. Yugi, smiling but silent, bows to her.
With things said, the group enters the portal and they head back to present time.
Unaware to Team Dragon Knight, Sasuke and even Chibiusa; what the future Usagi said wasn't completely true. As they left, Neo-Queen Serenity frowns sadden as she turns to face the beauty of her home, of their planet… and the horizon of an approaching darkness much more grander than Death Phantom's or Black Moon.
''Small Lady will return. Are you sure you want to send her back?'' King Endymion asks his queen wondering if this is their only choice. Neo-Queen Serenity eyes her king and responds modestly. ''Yes…''
She stares at the incoming darkness. She turns back to her beloved and says happily as if admitting her fate. ''This will be our final moments together, Mamo-chan.''
''Usako…'' He utters softly, holding on her hand not going to let her go again. Neo-Queen Serenity smiles facing forward with her king as she says mentally, hoping their future can change through him. ''If you can truly change fate Yugi-chan, then I hope you can prevent the end of our futures from his despair.''
Jenny waits patiently in the Kame Shop, hoping to see everyone back. In that moment she feels a strong sensation and then a loud sound happened. She rushes outside the shop to see a portal rip open from the very reality and there Yugi and the others leap out of it. The portal soon closes as Jenny speaks up happily, welcoming them back. ''You're back!''
Yugi smiles waving at her older sister promising they would be back.
''Yugi-chan, Usagi, everyone…'' Everyone turns to Chibiusa calling to them with a saddened yet happy face. She looks at every one of them who gave her courage to when she was afraid of her world. If not for them, she would have almost lost everyone. She cries, happy for them especially Usagi, Ed and Yugi, thanking them all. ''Thank you.''
Ed, smiling, nods rubbing her head. Chibiusa giggles by that. Ichi purrs eyeing Usagi and Mamoru and tells them firmly. ''You two better stick together Nya! Promise me!''
The couple sweat drop but nod responding. ''We will.''
''You better keep studying Alchemy.'' Ed tells Chibiusa honestly going to miss her especially since her talent with Alchemy will be something else one day, especially with how she used it when as Black Lady.
''I will Ed-chan-'' Chibiusa begins saying but stops herself, correcting with a happy smile. ''Edward-Sensei.''
Ed, staggered by that, tries not to sob as he mutters joyfully. ''She called me sensei. Teacher won't believe me.''
Huffing a bit, Sasuke walks up to Chibiusa pulling out the Space-time Key she dropped before. He says returning it back no longer interested to keep it. ''You dropped it.''
This surprises the group especially since Sasuke can use the key to go back in time to probably stop the death of his clan. Yugi just smiles realizing that he realizes he might screw up the timeline and he would rather win under his terms.
Chibiusa eyes the key and takes it. She frowns, slowly remembering what she did as Black Lady and promises the Uchiha kindly. ''I will be better, so I never become her again.''
Sasuke just scoffs hoping she does. Ichi giggles able to tell the guy does have a heart… even if he tried to kill everyone. Well best be forgiven, at least for now.
Not having anything else to do, Sasuke turns and walks away leaving. Naruto sees that and yells. ''Sasuke! Wait!''
He runs up and stands in his way. Sasuke scoffs not surprised questioning him coldly. ''Do you intend to stop me?''
Naruto nods determined speaking his mind. ''Of course! I promise Sakura-chan and myself I will take you back to Konoha, to our home. I will never go back to my word, ever!''
Sasuke scoffs aware the idiot won't turn his back from his vows… and since he handled Orochimaru, it would be best he did return to that village. At least to rebuild the Uchiha Clan, somehow.
''We'll see, but after I kill Itachi.'' The young Uchiha states not promising anything. Naruto frowns but serious not surprised. He eyes Naruto and tells him firmly. ''Until then, we'll talk. And it will happen, soon.''
Naruto eyes him until Sasuke's body erupts in flames startling almost everyone.
''H-HE BURNED AWAY!'' Danny yells out as the flames burned Sasuke but to vanished into nothing. Judai corrects him smiling. ''Nay. He just used a Jutsu to run away.''
Danny sweat drops not expecting that.
''Sasuke…'' Naruto mutters, squeezing his right hand tightly. Even though he couldn't bring him back home yet, this won't stop him vowing. ''I will change your fate too.''
Yugi smiles believing he will. He notices Shadow about to leave but he calls him out. ''Shadow-kun.''
The black hedgehog turns eyeing him. Thinking back what Pluto said about changing fate, Yugi wants not just his fate to be changed but the others around him.
''Since you can time travel with Chaos Control, maybe we could go back to the past and save that person who you cared for.'' Yugi suggests to the black hedgehog with a small smile. The others blink while Shadow gazes at him silently. ''…''
The silence made it very awkward as Yugi nervously says. ''Um like if you want and-''
''If I did that, Maria would still die due to my existence. Nothing would change.'' Shadow, interrupting Yugi, proclaims with a look of sadness. Yugi blinks wondering what he meant by that. Sonic knew sighing a bit.
Shadow faces Yugi and tells him firmly yet causal. ''Another time Dragon Knight.''
Yugi nods smiling as Shadow teleports through Chaos Control.
''You owe me a duel, Mutou.'' Kaiba reminds his rival coldly as he turns and walks away. Yugi sweat drops not surprise but happy to duel him again.
''I got my body to pick up.'' Kurosaki states sighing entering the house to grab his real body. Danny bids his farewell flying back to the Ghost Zone portal to get back to Amity Park.
''Later ladies!'' Jonouchi waves goodbye to the other Sailor Guardians hoping to see them… date one of them, same old. Just Minako waves back giggling with the others forced to drag her by the back kinda unease by Jonouchi, being too much of a fanboy.
The others went their ways except for Yugi and Ichigo alone. The two smile warmly holding hands.
''Your team did well.'' The couples startle up turning to see standing near them is Shadow Knight. The masked knight then adds eyeing Yugi, praising his harder work. ''You did too.''
''Shadow Knight-kun.'' Yugi mutters softly, not expecting to see him again this soon. He frowns thinking of how he knew Sailor Pluto if he was aware of her faith.
''Did you know Pluto-'' He tries asking him only for Shadow Knight to answer him, sounding sadden for her passing. ''Fate has us bounded. We cannot escape it. But if we do, we can create a miracle.''
He looks up at the sky, imagining a distorted sky for a brief moment. Shadow Knight tries not grunting as he turns to Yugi and tells him determined. ''Pluto was bound by her taboos but she still took the risk to save those she loved.''
Yugi nods understanding why Pluto made that choice. Shadow Knight can see that and adds still determine. ''Remember her actions as you continue onward and create your own future. And break through fate.''
The tricolor head startles by his last words about to ask him what he meant but before he could Shadow Knight was gone, as if he vanished into the darkness.
Ichigo continues finding that guy really-really weird and yet familiar with how he says his words. She eyes Yugi and says pretty taken back. ''That guy really has stunning words to say Nya.''
Yugi oddly chuckles by that stating. ''It's not the first time.''
The red cherry head blinks by what he meant. Yugi smiles thinking back to the battle against Deep Blue and before Yugi arrived to face the alien ''god''.
Rushing to where the others were from their auras, Yugi and Kaiba approached the shrine as quickly as possible only to be surrounded by multiple Chimera Animas.
''What the hell are those?'' Kaiba demanded not at all amused by this possibly man eating creatures. Yugi frowned explaining it to him simply while pulling out his Dragon Sword. ''These are Chimera Animas and we have no time dealing with them!''
Before Yugi could charge forward, not going to even go easy hopefully, all the Chimera Animas suddenly staggered and began acting weird. Yugi blinked before his eyes widened as all the Chimera Animas all scream in pain consumed by multiple dark shadow-like energy slashes. The monsters were reverted back to regular animals while the Para-Paras were consumed by the shadow slashes.
Yugi and Kaiba were a bit puzzled by this and even more as without them noticing they see Shadow Knight right in front of them. This staggered the tricolor head, remembering him from when Kish almost attacked him after the beaten he gave him during Christmas (he should apologized to him for that moment). Kaiba, however, glared furious remembering this one too well.
''You…'' Kaiba uttered angrily causing Yugi to blink by that. Shadow Knight, though not having told them his name yet, chuckled not by Kaiba's word but the fact both he and Yugi are working together.
''I'm happy to see both of you getting along.'' The masked knight stated very pleased as he added towards Kaiba. ''I suppose my card helped you.''
Kaiba did not reply not giving him any credit for that. Yugi then realized what the masked man meant and asked him immediately. ''You gave Kaiba-kun Blue Demon the Torment Dragon?''
''I had my reasons.'' Shadow Knight simply replied not surprised Yugi figured that out. He turned to see more Chimera Anima charging at them but the masked knight raised his right hand. As he did the creatures were suddenly entrapped by shadow-like chains, gripping on them tightly.
Kaiba huffed somewhat impressed by that ''power''. Shadow Knight turned back and he told the two. ''I will handle them. You two go forward and fight the Aliens' false leader.''
Yugi nodded not going to argue as he sensed the others about to be overwhelmed by Deep Blue. Kaiba didn't care either way as the two headed out, however.
''Dragon Knight Yugi…'' Yugi stopped turning to face the strange knight. Shadow Knight looked at him silently as he finally spoke with a rather inspired tone. ''Remember that regardless of how one views others, one's bonds are something precious. You should never turn your back from them even if fate comes in between.''
Yugi startled greatly by those words as he was somehow referring about Yin-Yang Dragon. Shadow Knight simply chuckled by his face as he said turning his back to face the chimeras. ''Good luck.''
The tricolor head just stared at him walking towards the monsters, almost wanting to ask him but he didn't as he can feel the others in danger. He wasn't sure what he said to be truthful… but thinking about it… he wasn't wrong. Even though he knew nothing about the two-headed dragon in him, they wanted to help him. If they didn't, he would be dead and it's not about their survival they were worried of. If it was, they would tell him and not making him choice which one he needed. No, for certain; they wanted to help him, to be partners with him.
Yugi didn't say a word as he turns back and rushed off with Kaiba right beside him, going to worry about how to deal with Deep Blue but in the back of his head; he wanted to pick both Yin-Yang Dragon and didn't care of the risk it could bring his body. Still… he wasn't sure but those words from that man made him think.
Yugi oddly cracks a smile happy that Shadow Knight helped him that day as did Atem. If not for them, if not for also Yin-Yang Dragon; they wouldn't have likely died by Deep Blue sooner than expected. Ichigo notices his smile and asks him blushing. ''Yugi-kun?''
''Yea…'' The tricolor head simply utters as he looks up to the bright sky, still smiling. He then asks almost happy. ''I kinda wonder who is underneath the mask.''
Ichigo blinks not thinking about that but she is curious who this Shadow Knight really is underneath that mask. Yugi nods still smiling, muttering out to himself who he is too. ''Shadow Knight-kun…''
In the Dark Lord's building, Sasuke appeared to Akumu and explained what he learned. Akumu hums not expecting that rabbit was carrying the future self of the Silver Crystal no less being the Moon Princess' daughter.
''So that was what she was carrying.'' He mutters really glad he didn't take it. If he did, who knows if the Silver Crystal could have harmed him or worse?
Dark General Knight gazes at the young Uchiha, having been aware of his intentions that time he interfered during his fight with the Dragon Knight's team and the Sailor Guardians.
''That was your aim, to take the little one's crystal.'' The dark knight states to him but Sasuke had no comment, honestly wanting to help Chibiusa reminding of himself. At the least her family is alive so she won't suffer like he did.
''But he didn't but it's fine.'' Akumu then says standing up from his throne. He eyes Sasuke and tells him smirking. ''You've told me much Sasuke and for that I will owe you back.''
Sasuke eyes him firmly and simply replies turning his back. ''You will.''
He then vanishes without even flinching. Akumu smirks liking the boy as he will keep his word to help him track down Itachi, even if he must deal or make a deal with the Akatsuki. He grunts though meaning he'll have to deal with that god complex leader… and the real leader. Still, compare to them, they'll be easy to deal with unlike that Aigami.
''Aigami, the Quantum Cube…'' Akumu mutters sitting back his throne, thinking back on what Sasuke told him of the man and how mysterious yet dangerous he is. He growls not able to feel comfortable thinking of him and what Sasuke also said that actually leaves him unease.
''Who the hell are you working for?'' The Dark Lord questions angrily, not able to control his feelings of who this Aigami is siding with? Who? Aizen? No, he would gloat. Then, who could it be then?
Floating at the remains of Nemesis, Aigami grabs a small rock of said planet. He holds on it, rather disappointed.
''Pity, Death Phantom, but not surprising. Always full of yourself.'' Aigami proclaims rather dark as he squeezes and cracks the rock in his hand like it was nothing. He then holds forward the Quantum Cube as it shines and starts sucking up any remains of Nemesis as energy, storing it within the cube.
Aigami chuckles a bit until he turns to see the very vacuum of space behind him crack open a rather strange portal-like mirror. He stares at it not seeing his reflection but of a figure floating in the other side.
''Have you collected his remaining power, Diva kuku?'' The figure demands the young teen with a rather sinister yet humorous voice. Aigami eyes him and just cracks a smirk explaining it holding his cube done absorbing the remains of Death Phantom and Nemesis. ''As you wanted. I will say this, Yugi continues being such a help.''
The small figure chuckles evilly as it resembles an oval-like thing flaps its demonic moth-like wings.
''Yugi is indeed my savior, doing everything I want him to do. And soon…'' The figure says almost happy for the young Dragon Knight process as he adds, opening up its demonic evil eye. ''I shall grant him his true fate; despair.''
Even with Death Phantom defeated, Aigami still plots and is indeed working with someone, a being who is connected to Yugi no less. What is this being who has been watching Yugi's progress as a Dragon Knight and what is it that he and Aigami are aiming for? Only time will tell.
To be continued…
(ENDING 2: Heart Moving by Naoko Takeuchi from Sailor Moon)
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…
After saving Crystal Tokyo, Team Dragon Knight enjoy some peace and quiet… but not Yugi as a strange young man with the most bizarre of auras appears before him wishing to talk to him about Kira. Alarm about this, Yugi agreed and he learns of the man before him and his connection to the Kira Case.
Usagi sighs upset: Why does me from the future hate me so much?
Ichigo blushes: Maybe Chibiusa is a handful?
Ed: I do NOT carry, only happy to teaching the squirt some stuff.
Judai chuckles: Well you are her size.
Ed: SAY THAT AGAIN TO MY FACE! I DARE YOU! CALL ME SHORT AGAIN!
Alicia sweat drops: Best not try it.
Usagi: So what's Yugi-chan up to?
Ichigo: Stuff, probably going to buy packs.
Judai: Man I gotta go see him later! I got new cards that will amaze him Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: Confrontation! Meeting L.
Ichigo giggles: Please remember to read, enjoy and review. See you all next time Nya!
Author's Note: So this has been a longer arc unlike the last one… and this was supposed to be longer actually but I had to shrink it down for my own concern.
I'll say this again because I want to: Sailor Moon Crystal is VERY awesome! If you have never seen the original anime or you have, see it regardless. It's short, bite size to catch up to watch and even though it lacks character development, for example the Sailor Guardians, it is easy to understand why they're close. Crystal is as canon as the Manga and through how well this worked out; I will continue to only use Crystal for the rest of DKR. My only problem is when Crystal will animate the Dead Moon Circus and Sailor Stars arcs to have them ready for DKR. Well I guess only time will tell.
Overall, this first Sailor Moon arc turned out better than I hoped. It was much longer to introduce the SM cast (since later I will only have to do a few more namely the Outer Guardians) and also doing stuff like Greed, Sasuke and currently Team Hebi, and Arkham. Not to mention the Aigami plotting of this arc and the Dark Lord's somewhat involvement. Regardless, I had a lot of fun and I enjoyed it. And yes, this arc also helped set up a few things, namely Team Hebi for next Volume, Aigami, Arkham and even Shadow Knight HMM. Plus character growths for Yugi, most of Team Dragon Knight and the SM cast, mostly Chibiusa for well… future stuff.
And yes, that figure is the same one from the epilogue of Volume 3? What is it? HMM… I can't tell you but keep an eye on it because the truth will be something else.
NOW… from this point on, there are only 1 mini arc coming up and then 1 more normal arc to end this Volume. The next arc is a new Death Note arc now giving us our somewhat dark hero, L.
