Volume 4: Episode 49: The Unexpected Surprises! The Premier of the KC Cup!

In the previous episode of DKR:

Yugi and Jenny were having one of their spar training till Ichigo appeared and asked the tricolor head out on a date. Yugi happily accepted wanting to spend time away from the problems he had endured so far. Ichigo giggled excitedly.

The next day arrived as the couple left together to the mountain side to where a hot spring spa was located, the very same Ichigo and the other Mew Mews tried to go to but were unable. However, due to a current leaking, the hot spring was closed leaving Ichigo sadden. Yugi wasn't bothered as he suggested they enjoy the nature around them. Ichigo oddly liked the idea as the two spent their time just together… though the red cherry head questioned if she would be this happy if it was Masaya.

Ichigo questioned this to Yugi who happily expressed it's likely but he's happy to be with her. After she over did it trying to catch a fish, Ichigo became wet and Yugi took her to a lodge to dry off. There the two had a deep chat and Ichigo admitted now that she loves Yugi more than anyone else for how she fills her heart with him. Yugi smiled warmly as the two would… well, they would grow closer.

After drying her clothes off, the couple returned home with Yugi carrying Ichigo in a bridal style in the sky in his Dragon Blade Mode. The two smile as their love for the other is as strong as their bonds.

However, Light had been plotting something against Yugi while Kaiba and Pegasus both had a chat about a tournament to support for Kaiba Land and also a request from Pegasus, wanting a certain someone to duel Yugi he promised.

Who could this person be and what is Light up to?

What will happen now?

And now the conclusion... the next day since the previous episode:

A plane descends over Domino Airport, landing safely.

''Ladies and gentleman, we have landed to Domino Airport.'' The flight attendant announces smiling softly. Everyone else in their sits were quiet not at all impressed… except for one.

''Yes!'' Shouting excitedly having watched a bad airplane movie, a young man with messy whitish hair with two twin long ahoge and hazel colored eyes sits on his seat. He's wearing an untied business suit with the tie hanging on both sides.

''Is this your visit here sir?'' The flight attendant asks him by his reaction. He nods smiling revealing his British accent. ''Yes it is madam.''

All the passengers were able to exit including the same young man, looking around at just the airport.

''So this is Domino?'' He mutters out how simple and quiet this place was. He still smiles adding that he will finally meet him. ''To think I will meet him.''

He takes a taxi to his first destination.

Danny was texted by Jonouchi to come over as they need his help. He didn't completely understand but he heads out to Domino. He finds the others calling them out. "Hey guys!''

He arrives to only sweat drops seeing Usagi on the ground, fainted with her eyes spinning very dazed while the others were looking up.

''Took your time getting here.'' Judai asks in a teasing voice. Danny groans replying. ''Time Zones. So why you guys called me again?''

Naruto, shivering, points upward with Ed stating. ''We spotted that pirate ship.''

Danny looks up and sees it, groaning already aware who that ship belongs to though he's surprised why he's here.

''We kinda figured it was ghost related.'' Alicia says since none of them know how to ghost fighting other than Danny… though Kurosaki wanted to give it a shot. Danny nods telling them. ''That would be Youngblood's.''

Everyone makes a face minus Usagi and Naruto both still shaking like leaves. Danny eyes them and tells them with a small smile. ''Evil little kid pirate ghost.''

Ed raises an eyebrow really oppose of that until a voice calls out from above. ''YAR LANDLUBBER GHOST BOY!''

Everyone looks up to see a ghost up in the floating ship. Literally it was a little kid ghost wearing main pirate uniform. Jonouchi sweat drops heavily at this with Usagi asking an actual smart question. ''How can we see him?''

''Only those who are kids in heart can see him and his mischievous acts.'' Danny explains from past experience… especially the time that Jazz thought he was going crazy. Boy he is glad that was not the case.

Jonouchi sweat drops by that comment, noticing Kurosaki, Ed and Alicia uneased; they all don't think they're kids.

Danny ignores their faces calling out to the pirate kid ghost. ''What do you want Blood?! Raid an ice cream truck?!''

''NONSENSE!'' Youngblood shouts sticking his tongue like a bratty kid… only to reveal his plans. ''Candy shop actually.''

''…'' Danny makes a firm, expression before raising his arms up declaring. ''I'm going ghost.''

He transforms into his ghost form informing the others. ''I got this one.''

Kurosaki just gives him a thumb up trusting he can handle this. Danny nods about to fly off but then he notices two important members of their group not present, asking out loud. ''Where're Yugi and Ichigo?''

Jonouchi grunts upsetting simply putting it. ''Rather not talk about that, just beat the little brat.''

''WHO ARE YOU-'' Ed and even Youngblood were about to shout until the alchemist blinks and grins realizing it laughing at the tiny ghost. ''Oh right, you're smaller than me! HAHAHA!''

Youngblood glares furious as he summons his ghost crew in the numbers of 100. Naruto and Usagi drop their jaws terrified with Ed sweat dropping, muttering out. ''Eh my bad?''

Danny sighs not worry as he duplicated into 3 of himself and they all charge at Youngblood and his Ghost Pirates.

Yugi and Ichigo were sitting on a bench in the park, smiling with the cat girl lying on top of his shoulder. He blushes warmly holding her close.

Ichigo notices Yugi was texting to someone. She peaks and sighs as it was that Tetsu Ushio again, asking him tips of not just beating people. She recalled how he was a bully to gang member in almost beating up Danny on his first day and Yugi beat him down that day to defend him. Since then he changed his way though he struggles to not act down right bullying. So a few weeks ago, he approached and asked Yugi for advises and tips to improve. Since then Yugi had been giving him tips and suggests not acting aggressive and using his mind than brute muscles.

He puts away the phone as the cat girl says giggling. ''It's nice today huh Nya?''

''Yup!'' Yugi says smiling. He moves his soda can to her mouth and Ichigo happily sips from it, purring softly.

She hums smiling licking her lips as she got an idea and smirks asking him. ''Want to go to the beach one day?''

Yugi blushes really red, instantly imagining Ichigo wearing a sexy bikini or swimsuit outfit. Just seeing her wear one would make his crotch feel wanting to pop out and also loving her more.

''… Yes.'' He says sweating heavily with red cheeks. Ichigo giggles with a small grin, really wanting to wear one.

''Well we should go shopping then. And you get to pick the outfit for me-'' She begins to say only for Yugi to immediately shout out excitedly. ''I'LL BUY IT.''

Ichigo smirks more hoping he would say that… and then she imagines him in a speedo. She purrs blushing redder, wanting to see it badly. The two get off the bench about to shop together until a voice shouts out. ''There he is!''

The two blink as they were confronted by two detective officers, both very angry and rather glaring coldly.

''Um hello officers?'' Yugi mutters questionable by their appearance before them. They glare at him and both announce mad. ''You're under arrest!''

''… Huh?!'' The tricolor head mutters out loudly with Ichigo shouting in horror. ''NYA?!''

L hums eating a piece of cake being explained by Soichiro what has happen just now on an arrest order for Yugi on a seemingly murder.

''Is that so?'' The detective questions most puzzled as he takes another bite. The head chief nods explaining it to him. ''Yes Ryuzaki, it seems a rising Yakuza named Hirutani was found dead in his hideout after the police were tipped off he would commit a major robbery.''

L narrows his eyes at him almost uninterested on this nobody, ripoff gangster dead. He does question him taking another bite on his treat. ''How does that connect to Yugi Mutou?''

''One of his friends, Katsuya Jonouchi, used to be part of Hirutani's small gang who threatened the young man multiple times in the past. Could be revenge.'' Soichiro reveals having gotten this information to better confirm this. L still wasn't interested stating. ''Not the simple trivia I wanted to hear.''

Soichiro sighs further explaining it to him. ''Yugi's fingerprint was found in the scene and Hirutani died by a heart attack. Not just him but others connected to Yugi were found murdered by unknown reasons. Almost like they were executed… almost like Kira's doing.''

Now that got L's interest putting down his fork. He hums rubbing his fingers over each other, now questioning if he was wrong before and Yugi was Kira… or Kira is aware of his attempt of going after the young man. Then the questions are why would Kira cared and why him? L hums suspicious that it could be Light but once more why or how Light would be aware of this… other than using his father's status as a police officer to get that information. He hums rubbing his lip, actually curious.

''How long was each of their deaths?'' L now questions firmly. Soichiro nods telling him. ''All of them happen around the afternoon.''

L hums even more interested, saying it. ''Interesting. Is he being accused of being Kira then?''

''You can find that out yourself.'' Soichiro says having been informed that Yugi has been arrested without the media or anyone of this. L nods standing up, curious to see this.

Matsuda couldn't help but protest on such an idea, speaking up. ''Sir I really don't think Yugi killed this Hirutani or being Kira.''

Soichiro sighs not wishing to admit it especially how hard it was tracking Kira only to likely be captured pretty careless. He sighs saying it. ''Guess we'll find out. Two officers are certain he's the best suspect.''

''Then let us go then gentleman.'' L declares not wishing to waste time. He puts on his shoes and asks of Soichiro. ''Oh Yagami-san, called your son. I want Light-kun present.''

Soichiro nods making the call now as they head out.

Within the police station that Yugi and Ichigo were taken in, Light was already present in the information room wanting to see the show.

''I'm actually at the station wanting to get a lead on Kira.'' He tells his father. He nods hearing his father replying to wait for them. Light nods responding. ''I see, well I'll wait for you guys to arrive then.''

Light hangs up and immediately forms a sinister grin with Ryuk chuckling over him, eating an apple.

''Clever Light.'' The dark Shinigami proclaims with his standard wicked grin, adding on to Light's planning from yesterday. ''You went behind some crimes or reports involving Yugi and used the Death Note to kill criminals while planting his fingerprints you got from him.''

Light smirks as he explains that part. ''The fingerprints were simple when you know where he's been the most, especially when we last cross paths.''

He recalls when L had called him that Light used that time to take Yugi's fingerprints from the door handle of the restroom toilet he was on. It was a good thing Light had kept fingerprint tape with him in case for the perfect trap for his enemies. L would be impossible to pin this on him… but Yugi, oh too easy.

Though Light did wish this didn't come to this but the boy was too foolish to go up against him.

''I gave him a chance to work with me so we can create a utopia of no crimes or villains and he chose to oppose it. Call this divine justice from the God of the New World.'' Light states with his eyes glowing red, chuckling to himself how ironic this will be finally getting rid of a nuisance like him. He adds with another chuckle. ''Kukuku… enjoy convicted of being Kira, Yugi.''

Kaiba groans, his arms crossed, waiting for Mokuba to finish sending the special invitations to the most worth of duelists… even that idiot Jonouchi, for his new tournament. Mokuba soon finishes informing him with a smile. ''Everything is now ready Nii-san! Both physical and digital.''

Seto smirks before gazing at Pegasus reading a comic in the corner. He scoffs at his childish attitude, telling him. ''Well Pegasus, I did my part of the deal. Where's yours?''

Pegasus hums closing his comic and speaks up. ''Oh yes, Quint-boy is taking a taxi to meet us.''

Kaiba makes a face almost as if he's aware of that name… till it hit him. He stares firmly demanding. ''Quint? You don't mean-''

''Hey Nii-san, Yugi hasn't replied.'' Seto is stopped by Mokuba informing him of possibly the worst news. If Yugi is not present in his tournament, things will turn ugly ONE way or another.

He grunts tapping on his coat's collar neck, activating its wireless phone line and orders it firmly yet pissed. ''Dial Yugi Mutou, now.''

The collar neck glows as it starts dialing up. Pegasus whistles wondering what else Kaiba's coat is capable of. Soon the call connects as Kaiba says angrily assuming to be Yugi. ''Mutou, pick up next time I-''

"Um sorry sir but Mutou-san is unable to take this call.'' Kaiba pauses by this unknown voice to him. He groans demanding enrage. ''Who is this?''

The feminine voice on the other line explains she's an officer which further infuriates Kaiba's patience.

''The police?! What the hell did he do?!'' He demands furious not going to accept a no for a question. The woman on the other line shivers by the man's fury as she calmly explains. "Once again I apologize sir but I cannot reveal the details.''

Kaiba groans more so much he hangs up immediately. So helped him if this was to do with that Jonouchi, he will not allow that mutt to live any longer. He grunts turning at Pegasus not having a choice but to use that one he brought over to help them in this problem.

''Pegasus, call your friend and tell him to do me a favor now!'' Seto demands angrily, not going to accept his no. Of course Pegasus was a step ahead making the call as he says. ''Already on it Kaiba-boy.''

He makes the call, hoping this problem can be solved or else the tournament is over.

Will this person Pegasus wants to duel Yugi help the same tricolor head in this bad situation?

Commercial Break:

Danny: Man why was so worry about Youngblood before? This is a piece of cake!

Ichigo: THIS IS THE WORST DAY NYA! WHY US NYA?!

Ichigo shivers freaking out badly sitting in the white interrogation along with Yugi. Both were sadly in handcuffs which weren't a big deal for Yugi; this wasn't his first time, far from it. Can't say the same for Ichigo as she's still shaking, like a leaf.

"Is this your first time in an interrogation room?'' Yugi asks a bit puzzle, just because he assumed she might have gotten herself well in trouble once being a Mew Mew and keeping what she says as a secret. The red cherry head turns and glares intensely at him, replying very nervously. ''W-what made you think Nya?!''

Yugi sweat drops blushing not meaning to scare her like this, especially since he has a good feeling why he's here. He tries comforting her by rubbing his head on her shoulder. Luckily it worked with Ichigo breathing calmly until the door opens up hard causing her to scream. The two officers who arrested the two walk in before slamming the door shut.

''Excuse me but this is a really bad misunder-'' Ichigo tries reasoning to the officers only for one of them to slam his hand on the table hard, placing a file on the table. He opens up showing photos of many death scenes.

''Shut up!'' The man shouts at her furious. Ichigo shivers by his reaction which causes Yugi to slightly glare furious by the man's tone towards her.

''Look kid, we know what you did to Hirutani.'' The other detective speaks up now startling Yugi greatly. He remembers Hirutani but he or Jonouchi have not seen him since a long time ago.

''Hirutani? What about him? I haven't seen him not since years ago.'' Yugi expresses firmly not having seen him in a long time. However the other officer smirks and tells him serious. ''Well he's dead and we know you did it too, Kira.''

Yugi tries not making an expression but this confirms this is Light's doing. Only him… or possibly L would try such a thing to either find an exploit, reveal or just giggles. And Yugi is in no mood to laugh especially for dragging Ichigo into this.

''… Is this a prank Nya?!'' Ichigo, however, takes it the wrong way greatly. She gets up no longer shiver, more furious than afraid. The angrier officer simply glares at her and stands up proclaiming just as mad. ''Do you think we would waste our time making this into a prank?!''

Ichigo just glares back not buying this nonsense.

Behind the one-way Mirror, L with the rest of the Kira Task Force and Light were watching this. L hums observing Yugi's expression and he was seemingly shock by this revelation.

''Look officer, I don't know what this has to do with me but leave Ichigo-kun out of this.'' Yugi asks of him not wanting Ichigo anywhere near of this. The other officer smirks speaking up. ''Oh confessing huh? Now that we have found your fingerprint in the crime scenes, you got no way escaping from justice.''

This shocks Yugi muttering puzzled. ''Crime scenes? Others were killed too?''

The officer slams his hands on the table as he declares. ''Don't play dumb kid, we know you did it. Just confess and we'll shorten your still long life sentence!''

Yugi stares at them calm yet firmly. Light watches with a hidden smug smirk on his face.

''The best part of this trap is using these corrupted officers I discovered. It was too easy to convince them as Kira to help frame him and make themselves heroes of capturing ''Kira''. And if they back stab me or blackmail Kira, they know they won't have long to live.'' Light explains mentally his brilliant method of using crocked officers for his endgame of getting rid of Yugi. He chuckles adding to himself. ''Once Yugi is imprisoned for being Kira, I'll lay low from using the Death Note until I discovered L's real name and once I do…''

Light stare at L from his back and tells himself with an evil grin.''I win, L.''

It may be out of his character to do such an act but Light will go through this route to reach his perfect endgames and become God of the New World. He will, no matter what.

Yugi was in a bind but he won't let this beat him. If this is Light or L's plot, he'll overcome it with strategy. First, he must exploit this plan's weakness and counter it.

''… When did those crimes happen?'' The tricolor head demands calmly. The calmer officer glares replying. ''Yesterday afternoon, we even have footage on when Hirutani died.''

Yugi sees that weakness with Ichigo blinking puzzle and mutters. ''Yesterday Nya?''

She blushes as that makes no sense since they were together all day. She reveals this to the officers. ''That can't be true then Nya. Yugi-kun and I were on a date yesterday. We even took the bus to the mountains Nya.''

The officers startle as did Light to overhear this. L hums able to slightly buy that once he checks the records but he is still interested by this.

''Oh? How fascinating.'' The detective mutters turning towards Light and asks him puzzled. ''Do you and Misa-kun go to dates too?''

Light stares at him slightly frozen wanting to frown in disgust that he would go out in a date with that woman. Still, he has to lie or else L will see through him.

''… Sometimes.'' He replies causing L to hum, wondering what it's like dating someone… nothing he should try himself, far from it but curious.

Both officers eye the red cherry head and they laugh. Ichigo blinks confused by that as one of them said still laughing. ''Ha! You and him? You could easily be the Second Kira.''

Now that crossed the line for the red headed pigtail, shouting furious at them. ''WHAT WAS THAT NYA!''

Both officers once more startled with Yugi nervously freaking out. ''I-Ichigo-kun!''

Ichigo ignores him and proclaims glaring at both cruel men. ''I am sick and tired you are accusing my Yugi-kun in being this twisted, serial killer baka psychopath!''

Yugi sweat drops heavily though a part of him had to admit she's not wrong. Light tries his best to not widen his eyes but he was angry, pissed off by her statement.

''He's the nicest and most compassionate person I know! He hates bullies and yet wishes for them to be nicer!'' Ichigo resumes saying all the wonderful stuff that Yugi is, protesting their accusations that he's a mass serial killer. ''I saw him trying to be a good person than being an evil killer!''

Light struggles greatly to not snap at her insult towards him… even more so wanting to write her name in the Death Note if not for her still freaking alive.

''I won't let you accuse Yugi-kun or I for this anymore! I refuse Nya!'' Ichigo shouts at the officers not going to play their stupid game anymore. The mad officer snaps now shouting at her about to grab her. ''SIT DOWN NOW OR-''

Ichigo hisses about to give him a good beaten for daring to touch her but before any of them did anything the door opens up. They all blink to see a young man they have never seen before pop his head in the room. This time his tie was neatly tied.

''Oh this is the right room.'' He says rather relieve as he walks in, closing the door behind him. Light is startled by this while L hums, his eyes slightly widen as if he knew this man.

''Hey, we're in the middle of an interrogation.'' The calmer officer informs this stranger only for him to smile pulling up his briefcase, proclaiming. ''Precisely.''

He walks past both officers towards Yugi and Ichigo. He looks behind to a chair behind him and grabs it.

''Mind I get between you two, thank you.'' He declares sliding between the couple, putting the chair between them and sits on it. He startles feeling the chair a bit wobbly. He looks down to the chair legs and can see two of the uneven legs were short.

''Oh the wobbly chairs. Classic.'' He states liking this method to unease those sitting in this room; just another reason to cause an outburst. Everyone blinks eyeing the messy white haired young man, smiling rather relaxed, as he places his briefcase on the table and snags the file on the photographs of those who died.

''… Um who are you Nya?'' Ichigo asks a bit confused who this guy is. Yugi nods a bit off himself. The stranger blinks and laughs nervous forgetting to introduce himself.

''Greetings and salutations! I will be your lawyer for today!'' He announces in his British accent while speaking in Japanese. He pulls out his personal cards his jacket and hands them to both Yugi and Ichigo… well tries too since they were still cuffed. They read the cards with Yugi muttering out even more confused. ''Ryan Quint-kun?''

The young man, Ryan, nods smiling as he tells the tricolor head. ''That's my name, keep the card!''

Ichigo nods smiling liking this one than the officers.

''Now then…'' Ryan says studying the file of the officers who were pissed at this kid that the angry one speaks up furious. ''Hey, what are you doing! We never called him a-''

He's interrupted by Ryan lifting his palm up, still reading the file and sighs at how badly made this thing was done. Like stitched together with random accuses and no real facts but a fingerprint. To Ryan, this case was basically over.

''No you didn't and due to these ''evidences'', I have to be blunt but you must apologize and release my clients.'' Ryan informs the officers with a firm gaze like a lawyer. They stare at him rather discomfort, as did Light.

''Who the hell is this guy?!'' Light demands furious in his thoughts. L just hums already aware who this is.

Ryan coughs as he begins speaking showing the photograph of the fingerprint in the package box. ''The package with no fingerprints only had the fingerprint tape that had Yugi's fingerprint on. No doubt a transfer done by someone framing Mr. Mutou.''

The officers were about to protest but Ryan, sighing, explains to them holding his hands together on the table. ''Fingerprints should not be your only evidence on my client. It can either be forged, transfer or a setup by someone. If you two were real detectives, you would add 2+2 together and realize this is not Kira.''

Light glares at the other side, not expecting a damn lawyer this young to at least be aware of fingerprint identity thieve.

''Besides, I already have proof this wasn't my client and it's thanks to Hirutani's security cameras.'' Ryan suddenly declares surprising everyone. He pulls out his cellphone playing a recording. ''See I had to go to Mr. Hirutani's home which had a hidden camera. I got this permission from my connections with the Tokyo Police Department.''

He plays the recording showing Hirutani just lying low in his home, not doing much until he suddenly acted weird, left his room and came back a few minutes later with the package. He opens it and pulls out the tape of Yugi's fingerprint, planting it over his table and walks back sitting on his chair only to start having a heart attack. Ryan pauses stating. ''He opened that box and planted the fingerprint on the scene himself.''

''That would have been-'' Yugi begins to say but Ryan beats him to it revealing. ''Kira, yes, but Kira would never do that from past kills. This only means that Hirutani planted to kill himself. After all, his business was crumbling apart and he was going to be testified for his past actions too. It's likely he injected himself with something beforehand or his drink was poison. And even if he wasn't, it is still likely. After all, most assassinations use undetected poison.''

The officers glare with Ryan now proclaiming. ''In truth, this is false evidenced on my client. You can't charge or frame him for being Kira now.''

They glare madder about to speak up that he is wrong only for Ryan's cellphone to start beeping. He picks it up and smiles showing the image he got. ''Oh and here, a camera photograph is taken of my clients on the time of the scene on the same time they were on their date yesterday.''

They eye it seeing Yugi and Ichigo walking together with what time they were doing this. Light grits his teeth slightly, not believing this. WHEN AND HOW THIS PERSON GOT THAT PHOTO FROM? L just hums again.

''Now please release my clients and we'll let bygones be bygones.'' Ryan asks of the officers with a charming smile. The officers would not accept this; they could have been famous in taking down ''Kira'' and getting all of their desires come true. They won't allow their chance to passed away because of this kid.

''You have no saying how we run our investigation, mama's boy!'' The angry one said causing Ryan to immediately form a silent frown. ''…''

The other officer smirks adding in a threatening voice. ''And you know what, you came in is a sentence too.''

He pulls Ryan up from his chair and pushes him to the wall.

''Plus attacking an officer!'' The other officer shouts swinging a punch at him. Ichigo panics as did Yugi about to use Yin-Yang Dragon's powers to break the cuffs but to his surprise Ryan slides in so fast to the left that the officer hits the wall and breaks his fist. He gasps out as Ryan strikes him with an almost unseen gut punch, gasping him in massive pain.

''H-how did you-'' The corrupted officer mutters out before dropping on his feet to the ground, completely knocked out. Soichiro is stagger that he was knocked out that easily but more impressed on the young man who did it.

''DAMN YOU!'' The remaining officer snaps swinging at the lawyer. Ryan dodges almost instantly which causes the officer to swing over and over. Ryan is able to see each one of the officer's fists and move away from each punch before they could hit him. The officer becomes angry trying to be dirty reaching for his gun but Ryan immediately punches his arm, breaking it. He screams in pain followed by Ryan punching him across the face and he drops backwards to the ground, a few teeth falling out from his gapping mouth.

Yugi watches silently though surprising with Ichigo muttering out amazed. ''A-Awesome Nya!''

Ryan sighs untying his tie and walks to the fallen officer, removing the keys for the cuffs. He walks over to the couple and removes their cuffs. Ichigo giggles happy to be free while Yugi is still astonished. They watch Ryan walking to the window and taps on it.

''Since your Bobbies tried to attack me, I'm calling this even. You'll be letting my client out immediately, thanks.'' Ryan declares to those watching on the other side. He then adds with a small smirk. ''Oh and L, don't target my client again why don't you.''

Yugi staggers greatly by that but so did Light, probably worst.

''H-He knew L was here?'' Light questions to himself taken back by this. L stares quietly at the other side, not surprised. He eyes Soichiro and just gives him a look to let them leave and make an apology. Light's father nods leaving the room with Light silently glaring at Yugi.

After a misunderstanding and an apology, Yugi and Ichigo were let out and leave the station.

''SIGH! I'm so relieve Nya!'' Ichigo shouts so happy and peppy to be back in the bright sunny day. Yugi giggles seeing her like this as he eyes Ryan. He wouldn't be sure how he'll get out of that mess without him… though Yugi could have sworn he's met him before?

''Thank you for well you know. How much-'' Yugi begins to say wanting to pay him as much as he could effort but Ryan protests waving his arms around. ''No-no-no mate, this would have been free if I wasn't pay already.''

Yugi and Ichigo both blink not following.

''Paid? Oh wait, how did you-'' Yugi begins asking just realizing how he found them here until a familiar voice calls him out. ''Oh Yugi-boy!''

Yugi startles with Atem appearing in spirit form with his arms crossed as they all turn around to a limo to see Pegasus next to it, waving hello.

''Cartoon guy Nya!'' Ichigo purrs smiling, happy to see him okay after that whole Reshef problem done. However her smile would be cut off short after seeing the passenger window slides down to show Kaiba's glaring expression. She growls with Yugi muttering puzzled. ''Pegasus-kun and Kaiba-kun?''

''Get in and bring your annoying pet with you.'' Kaiba simply says with a madden voice. Ichigo hisses angrily with Yugi sweat dropping, just noticing that he was calling him on his cellphone.

Not having a choice, the two along with Ryan walk to the limo and got on. Yugi was last as he looks up at the police station and there spots Light next to the doors, glaring at him coldly. Yugi gazes back furious at Light before entering the limo.

''…'' Kaiba glares silent yet coldly at Light, almost untrusting this person he's never seen before. He rolls the window upward as the limo drives off.

Light watches angrily, squeezing his hands tightly. He won't let him get away with this humiliation. L watches from inside the station, humming more curious why Kira went after him. This will need… some experiment to confirm his suspicious.

Now in the limo, Yugi thanks Kaiba for helping them out. Ichigo startles asking out loud. ''Oh you called Yugi-kun, Kaiba-Baka Nya?''

Kaiba groans at her late assumption as he tells her. ''How else did I learn what happened to him. Don't assume I'll be grateful for doing this again.''

Ichigo hums wondering about unless she makes her own call to Kisara… but she's beneath such a thing… for now.

''Well thanks though and also you too Ryan-kun.'' Yugi says thanking him and the young lawyer for the big save. Ryan blushes actually overjoyed shaking his hand rapidly as he expresses himself. ''I'm happier to have been of help to the ledge himself! I'm so chuffed to meet you!''

''Chuffed?'' Yugi mutters out a bit puzzled by his term of words with Ichigo more confused. ''Ledge Nya?''

Ryan laughs nervously at their expression, not blaming them since British folks have their own term of words and their meanings. Everyone does actually, though in their own unique ways.

Pegasus chuckles at this as he informs Yugi. ''Ryan-boy has been eager to finally meet you and likely duel you too.''

Yugi blinks by that questioning. ''Duel me?''

''That sounds cool Nya! You two should duel now maybe!'' Ichigo suggests giggling wanting to see the kind of duelist Ryan might be. Ryan laughs agreeing with her.

''Actually they'll get the chance.'' Kaiba declares pulling out a card and hands it to Yugi. The tricolor head blinks receiving it and reads it, uttering out even more puzzled. ''An invitation for the KC Cup?''

Ichigo sweat drops by that name with Ryan asking a bit dumbfounded. ''KC Cup? Not a cuppa because I need coffee?''

"…'' Kaiba groans silently, trying to be polite with this so-called lawyer. He coughs as he explains what it is. ''It's my new Duel Monster tournament sponsored by Industrial Illusions.''

Yugi blinks more surprised Kaiba and Pegasus are hosting a tournament together, especially since Kaiba hates Pegasus with a burning passion. Ichigo is also surprised though she does ask curious. ''Does it have to do when we saved cartoon guy and when I beat-''

Kaiba widens his eyes enrage causing the cat girl to silent herself. He groans warning her. ''Yes and stop, I never want to remember that event period Momomiya.''

Ichigo rolls her eyes upset since she did beat him in that duel in Pegasus' castle. She's still proud for that win. Just then she realizes something and asks baffled. ''Wait, where's my invitation Nya?''

Cracking a small grin at first, Kaiba lets out a sinister laugh actually finding it funny. Ichigo sweat drops not finding that funny at all. He scoffs smirking as he tells her with an amusing, dark look. ''If you want to enter the KC CUP, then get in through the preliminaries to enter the main 16 roster.''

Ichigo groans hoping she would get her own invite since well she did beat him but this isn't bothering her. She then thinks of something and asks curious. ''If I do enter the main tournament, then I could duel Yugi-kun Nya?''

Yugi blinks puzzle by that. Kaiba scoffs upset by her assumptions but he does answer her. ''If you get the chance so impress me. Otherwise, you can leave.''

''Perfect! Yugi-kun and I want to stop here Nya!'' Ichigo proclaims excitedly, wanting to leave here and head back home to prep her deck. Kaiba rolls his eyes and nods ordering his drive to stop.

Erika was walking by close spotting a limo stopping. She watches it at first about to leave to do her things but that was until she notices both Yugi and Ichigo getting out from it.

''Is that?'' The black haired young lady mutters as she spots another guy, white hair, walking out from the limo too.

''Thanks a lot again, Ryan-kun!'' Ichigo expresses happily really grateful for his help. Ryan giggles happy to help anyone in trouble proclaiming. ''It's my pleasure, lovely bird.''

Ichigo sweat drops by that name and says blushing. ''Um I'm more like a cat Nya.''

Ryan sweat drops too not meaning to call her a bird. He nods eyeing the tricolor head and tells him confident. ''I look forward to dueling you, Yugi!''

Yugi blinks by this and responds though stumped. ''Um likewise but Ryan-kun, why though?''

The young lawyer now blinks just realizing he never explain himself. He chuckles a bit that even though he got to meet the Duel King, he actually wants to duel him more.

''Well…'' Ryan begins to explain himself but he's interrupted by a familiar voice calling out. ''Ichigo?''

The red cherry head blinks to see Erika rushing over towards them. She purrs smiling shouting back. ''Erika-chan!''

Erika smiles a bit before she eyes Ryan who eyes her back. The two lock eyes, Ryan startled with Erika making her firm expression when a boy or man looks at her. She groans hating that but there was something about him that felt… different, but this didn't change much.

Ryan was about to say something, hesitating to what he could say, until Pegasus calls him out from inside the limo. ''Ryan-boy, we should get going. I have stuff to ask you.''

Ryan groans a bit but nods replying. ''Yes sir.''

He turns to the three and waves goodbye before entering the limo. They watch as the car drives off.

''Who was he?'' Erika asks the couple never seeing him before. Ichigo giggles telling her. ''Oh just a nice lawyer Nya!''

Erika blinks as Ichigo explains what happened. Yugi smiles a bit hoping to get to know why Ryan wants to duel him. Whatever the reason might be, he could tell it's for an important reason.

''KC Cup huh?'' Akumu mutters in his throne in his office room, chuckling with the news that his fateful general has gain just not long ago.

''Yes my lord, your Dark Dragon Hunters informed me.'' Dark General Knight explains with a bow as did the Dark Dragon Hunter very nervously. The Dark Lord hums rubbing his chin, not really interested but he doesn't care as long as he could get his chance to kill Yugi. He's a parasite or a bad itch that must be eradicated.

Striking an evil smirk, Akumu states evilly. ''Well, this can be interesting.''

Arkham overhears this from his dark corner, letting out a small chuckle while holding 3 cards in his possession. The masked villain stares at them, chuckling once more in that he's certain the Dark Lord will love to use them.

What will the KC Cup unfold and what will be the Dark Lord's plot this time?

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…

Kaiba announces his latest tournament, the KC Cup, for the chance to become the best duelist and to celebrate the Tokyo Kaiba Land opening. Yugi and Jonouchi were both invited among a few others but there are a few positions left for a few duelists. If Ichigo wishes to join the KC Cup, she must get pass the preliminaries. Also wishing to help Ichigo, Erika joins the tournament. Can both best friends conquer the preliminary and enter the KC Cup?

Yugi: Ichigo-kun, are you sure you want to enter Kaiba-kun's tournament?

Ichigo giggles nodding: I am Nya! I want to prove my worth as a duelist… but well there's another reason but I'll only tell you if we duel in the tournament Nya.

Yugi just smiles: Well if you say so.

Ichigo nods determined: I will get past those preliminaries and show my growth Nya!

Jonouchi: Yea well I kinda want you to win it so don't let me down Momomiya!

Ichigo smirks nodding: Right Nya! Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: Passing the Preliminary! Ichigo and Erika's Promise! Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time Nya!

Jonouchi: … I prefer when your cousin does these.

Ichigo kicks him: SHUT UP NYA!

Author's Note: The KC Cup is a Duel Links' PVP event in which you duel your way with other players, go up in Levels and there's 2 Stages. By winning the second Stage, you enter Regionals for the Duel Links portion of the event. I… DON'T like the KC Cup (I HATE THIS PVP EVENT SO MUCH). I only join it for the gems which can max you out with at best 2000 gems. That's pretty GOOD, especially for a Free-To-Play Player like myself. Anyway, I used the idea of the KC Cup for this new tournament but not to piss me off.

Why the Youngblood scene? I did say I would do some DP stuff, here you go. More hopefully later, not so much for this last arc.

Now Ryan Quint… he's an OC of mines I made for DKR and for other reasons. He's a guy who sees nobility and compassionate as strong characterization for anyone which is why he's a lawyer who protects and fights for the innocent. But also his past will reflect why he is the person of right now and then some. You'll see more of him later.

Expect more surprises for this last arc.
