Yuzu finished her story only to find a completely blank faced tomato boy trying to comprehend what he just heard.
"So, wait...You're telling me we were attacked by some soldiers, then I was forced into a duel where the damage was real, then the bad guys used some card to fuse our dragons together, but then yuto kissed me right before the soldiers used a move that killed Yuto?" "Hahaha! That's a good one Yuzu!" Yuya began to laugh at how ridiculous it sounded.
"Yuya, He didn't die. Take a look at your deck." Yuzu picked up His deck and handed it to him.
Yuya began looking through his deck until he found a very familiar card.
"Th-This is?!" Yuya exclaimed as he found a single familiar card that wasn't in his deck before. it was Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon, in other words, Yuto's card.
"How did this get in my deck?" He wondered out loud.
"Yuya, the soldiers said that your dragon card is equivalent to your soul, just like dark rebellion is equivalent to his."
Yuzu looked like she was hesitating to say the words she wanted. She was still in shock with what she saw. Between the Academia soldiers, Yuto kissing Yuya right in front of her and Shun, there was just too much on her mind, and worst of all Yuya was clueless so she had to be the one to explain it to him.
"Yuzu?" Yuya looked concerned.
"There is no easy way to say this so I'm just going to come right out with it." yuzu said putting a hand on yuyas shoulder and then turning a little red.
"Yuto is inside of you."
Yuya dropped his deck of cards in shock and embarrassment that Yuzu would even say something so embarrassing and strange.
"W-What?"
"When your dragons were fused together, so was your souls."
Yuya sat down in shock. He could not believe Yuzu would even entertain such a thought, it seemed very far-fetched to him.
"You don't believe me do you?" Yuzu asked.
"It's not that I think you would lie to me but, it is a rather hard story to believe. I need time to think. " Yuya replied, picking up the deck of cards and putting them back in his deck holder.
"I would imagine so if you need me I will be downstairs. I will give you some time to think."
Yuzu went downstairs and shut the door.
~~x~~
Yuya went to go lie down on his bed as he touched his lips with his fingers.
Did Yuto kiss me again? Is he really inside me?" The thought embarrassed him.
"Yuya..." A familiar voice echoed in Yuya's mind.
Yuya jumped as he could have sworn he heard something. He turned red. why did this voice make him feel warm?"
"Is anyone there?" Yuya wondered out loud.
There was no response.
"I must be hallucinating, all this weirdness must be getting to me." He said laughing nervously. Perhaps he had gone crazy.
Yuya looked around the room. touching his hands to his lips yet again as his face turned red. What was this feeling? It almost felt as if he wasn't alone and yet he felt calm, and relaxed, and warm, but of course this was impossible, he was in the room alone.
"I suppose since I been asleep for five days I really should get out of these pajamas and get dressed." He thought to himself finally.
"But wait." Yuya thought to himself. If by the crazy chance that Yuto was right, and Yuto was here with him, would he see Yuya get dressed?
but no, that's crazy talk after all, it's impossible because magic like, that can't exist right? But the real questions are, why would it matter? They are both dudes, its not like they would do anything...would they?
"Would we?" that was the one that stumped Yuya. He did not care for the fact that Yuto had touched him like that, but there was a even bigger problem and that is what went on during that time where Yuya just stood there, letting it happen. Would a straight person do that? And more importantly , would someone who could have escaped done that?
Yuya's mind wandered off to the point where he completely forgot about the situation Yuzu mentioned, and he began replaying the image where Yuto touched him over and over in his mind until eventually, something awkward happened.
His lower area reacted at the thoughts.
"Oh shit." Yuya turned red. Why would that of all things happen now? He gulped. There was one thought that made him nervous. He would have to take care of this. but he had to consider. What if he really wasn't alone? It was crazy talk but if Yuzu really is correct, then what would this mean for Yuya? if he was playing with himself and masturbating while Yuto was inside him..it would be really awkward or something weird might happen. He was probably thinking too hard about this. It really didn't matter, he has to take care of this.
Yuya awkwardly began to remove his pants, and boxers, awkwardly grabbing his object gently from the base, and running his hand gently down his length gently, then rubbing softly turning red as a series of small pants and moans escaped his lip. He tried not to think of the possibility that Yuto was there with him, a small amount of drool hung from his mouth, as he continues to rub and running hand down it, gaining speed.
"Y...Yuya...K..keep going" A voice in his mind said.
Yuya turned red at the thought, in shock and horror, but Yuya needed to finish the job, he blushed hard as he hesitantly moved faster.
"Y-Yuzu was right...you are here with me," Yuya said between gasping and panting.
there was no response after that.
Yuya let out one final gasp after he released onto the bed. He never felt so embarrassed in his life. It was almost as if he just had sex with Yuto some how. How was he supposed to feel about this?"
~~X~~
Yuya got himself together finally, and managed to get dressed and then headed down stairs to wash his hands. After he came out of the bathroom he began to head towards the door.
"Yuya? Is that you?" the voice from around the corner asked.
It belonged to his mom.
Yuya jumped, trying to keep himself from blushing.
"Y-Yeah? Whats up mom?"
"What are you doing out of your room?" She asked.
"I am going to go and visit a friend." He said.
"Here than take this with you after you dry your hands." She handed him a lunch box.
"Whats this?"
"You have been asleep for 5 days. Haven't you eaten right? I packed you enough food to hopefully make up for those 5 days."
Yuya's stomach growled. It was true, he had not realized how hungry he actually was until his mom had said anything.
"Thanks, mom!" He said heading out the door.
As he headed down the road, he scarfed down that food as quick as he could.
Yuya figured that the best way to figure out what was going on, Was to do some investigating, And although he was reluctant, he did indeed know someone who could shed some light on his situation. A fortune teller by the name of Hochun Mieru.
He didn't necessarily believe in the power of occult magic, or fortune telling, However one thing was apparent...there definitely was, something wrong with him. He blacked out for five days, and ever since he woke up Yuzu had been saying odd things about him, and although they seemed far fetched He cant imagine why he would have Yutos dragon, furthermore he did feel like something was wrong and he did occasionally hallucinate. Maybe Yuzu was telling the truth after all... he just needed to confirm it, and the only one who he could think of asking was Hochun Mieru, who specialized in the knowledge of this kind of thing. He could not believe he was even entertaining that thought. Maybe this visit with Hochun Mieru would prove to him that her magic was real.
There was only one small problem.
~~X~~
"Darrrrlllliiiing~!" A love-smitten Hochun Mieru tackle hugged Yuya as soon as he set foot on her property.
"Ahh! Please get off me! How did you know I was coming?" Yuya tried to pull her off.
"I'm Hochun Mieru, I saw a vision that you were coming." She looked proud of her self.
"Ahh..."Then you must know why I'm here then?" right?" Yuya mused and sighed.
"Yes... Is what I would like to say but actually, I just saw that you were coming and that;s about the extent of it." She told Yuya.
"Ah..I see." He said.
"You must have come to see me!?" She lit up.
"I Knew it... we were meant to be!"
Yuya looked at her blank-faced.
"What? No! I just need you to help me out with something." He explained.
"Anything for you ,my love." She sighed.
"I need you to confirm something!" He pleaded.
"Huh?" She looked at him confused.
Yuya began to explain (leaving out specific details) that he felt there was another soul inside him and he needed to confirm it. Mieru listened to him Silently and then nodded her head.
"There is a way to confirm this. However, I'm going to need something from you." She said calmly.
"What is that?" He asked.
"Hand me Dark Rebellion XYZ dragon and your Odd eyes pendulum dragon. We need to confirm first and foremost that your souls are Indeed tied to these dragons. It would be easier to just check if there is another soul inside you however i would imagine you would like to know about the dragons themselves and if they indeed hold any connection to your souls... this way we can hit two birds with one stone."
Yuya took out his deck from his pocket and handed it to the girl.
"here are the two cards." He said.
She took out her crystal ball (oddly shaped like an apple.) and began to place them on the two cards.
The Crystal ball went black.
"W-What!?" She yelped in surprise.
"Whats wrong?!" Yuya asked concerned.
"It won't let me read it. Its almost as if some source of power is blocking it. But I do know this, Whatever that source of power is... Is terrifying."
Yuya looked concerned.
"W-what do you mean?"
"I don't know, but Whatever it is very dark and and powerful. The only thing i can tell you based on this is even though I cannot tell you for sure that there is a second soul inside you, that it is 100% certain that there is some connection in some way between those dragons and you, because if there wasn't then there would be no reason for this barrier."
Yuya gulped. He didn't like the sound of that.
"Unfortunately, I cant do anything more until I can figure out a way to get past the barrier but I would be very careful if I were you."
Yuya looked worried.
"If you need anything more than come find me," Meiru said.
Yuya nodded. He began to head back home. The words Meiru said were concerning and worst of all he was scared. What was that darkness that she spoke of..?
Yuya then recalled that nightmare he had been having every once in a while. The one where he was being chased by some unknown presence. could that have some relevance to what Mieru said? Soon enough Yuya was so concerned about the evil presence Meiru spoke of that he completely forgot about why he came to Meiru's in the first place. To find out about Yuto,. Meiru did return the two dragons to him.
He supposed that it wasn't going to do any good thinking about it. Meiru said she would work on figuring out the cause. Yuya needed to find something to keep his mind off of the whole situation.
~~X~~
"Yuuuuyaaa~!" a familiar voice came out of nowhere.
It was Sawatari Shingo.
"Sawatari?" Yuya asked.
"That's right!" Shingo said in English."
"What are you doing here?" Yuya asked.
Sawatari began to revert back to normal Japanese.
"I could ask you the same question, You are after all Right near the LDS (Leo Duel School). Got Business with us?" Shingo asked flipping his hair and smiling.
"Actually, I don't I was just wandering around." Yuya looked around.
"Although I have business with him." An unfamiliar voice came from behind.
A tall young man with gray hair that spiked on each side and wore a pair of red glasses appeared.
"What? Who are you?" Yuya asked.
"how did you find me?"
Sawatari looked surprised.
"It's rare to see you out here," Sawatari said.
"You may go back to your dorm now." The young man signaled.
"Yes, sir," Sawatari said heading back.
"Come walk with me." The young man asked.
"Who are you and where are we going."
"My name is Akaba Reiji. just follow me and I will explain."
Yuya and Reiji made their way up a flight of stairs and into the building and then down a hallway that leads to a guarded building. Reiji nodded to the guard and he stood to the side.
"Where is this?"
The room was filled with computers and monitors and some sort of system that seemed to be used for detecting energy, There were various employees working at the stations.
"I used these monitors to watch your duel against Academia."
"What!?" Yuya yelled.
Akaba reiji pulled up a recording of the duel in question.
"So Yuzu was telling the truth..?" Yuya thought in his head.
"Who are you?" Yuya asked.
"I am going to give you an opportunity. Depending on your answer, this could affect the outcome of both you and everyone in this world. As of current, i cannot tell you what it is, But I want you to know that Your decision may be able to save our world."
"My decision? Why me?"
"As of now that is also classified. I just need you to think about your options. You are going to be taking a huge risk and i need to know that i can rely on you. You want people to stop using dueling to solve conflicts right? Our mission is to bring peace to all the dimensions. I heard of your father Yushou Sakaki... He was a great entertainment duelist who was the person who invented action duels."
"How do you hear about that?!" Yuya said shocked.
"I have records on all duel schools and duelists in this city. If you want to follow in your father's foot steps, then you should think this over. gimme your answer In 14 days from now and I will give you the details. However, should you refuse, You will not like the outcome."
"Is that a threat?" Yuya said angrily.
"Yes, However, it's not a threat from me. Its a threat to the entire world, and if you refuse your fate will be the same as everyone else. This is your chance to live up to your father's expectations. This is an opportunity like I said before. I will give you 14 days."
Yuya headed home while he replayed the words Reiji said in his mind.
"This is an opportunity...I will give you 14 days."
"What should I do father?" Yuya said looking at a single photograph of him and his father.
"I don't think I'm Fit to save the world, or live up to your standards of me anymore."
He lay on his bed staring at the photo, remembering the words Meiru said.
"It's a terrifying presence."
Yuya suddenly looked afraid.
"I'm not fit to save anyone, and if anything I would only make things worse."
Suddenly a voice appeared in his mind again, it sounded like his only was more terrifying.
"The only thing you can do...fall... fall from grace... Fall deeper into pitch...black... darkness. now Come, Why don't you rest... In eternal...never ending sleep."
Yuya's eyes went blank and sure enough, he found himself falling into sleep and the last thing he saw before fading from consciousness, is the concerned stare and yelling of yuzu who had just come to check on him.
"Yuya!"
