Despite Leo's insistence Trudge was not convinced that Luna was taken to the Duel Spirit. So the man dragged them to look for the control tower.
"There are people with the power to erase a whole population of people, you literally saw Earthbound Immortal Uru cause a mini earthquake and you draw the line at Duel Monster being sentient?" Yuma asked incredulously.
"Don't waste your time, grown-ups never listen." Leo signed, shaking his head.
Yuma reached out to Utopic Future, asking it to look out for Luna in the Spirit World. The Number answered him with a promise to protect.
It didn't take long for them to find the monkey control unit, however when the three of them stepped down to the field fire erupted from the ground. Trudge barely pulled Yuma out of the way before the purple flame hit him.
The symbol of the monkey hovered over their head, signaling what to come.
(-.-)
Luna could only look on in horror that the monkeys pointed their staff at her beloved Sunlight Unicorn, Sunny Pixie and Kuribon. Wicked purple energy gathered at the tip of their staff but before they could fire, the sky turned dark.
The monkeys paused their attack, alarmed when they noticed that there was seemingly a hole in the sky. In a blink of an eye a flash of golden light ran down on the monkey soldier, sending them flying.
Luna's eyes widened when she saw a familiar monster stepped forward. The red and black armored monster planted his sword on the ground, he bowed his head and knelt before her like a knight.
"I am Number F0: Pledge of Wishes - Utopic Future," The warrior spoke, his voice soft. "And I promised to protect you."

Yusei came to the sight of Trudge holding Yuma back from touching the flame field that was surrounding a dueling Dark Signer and Leo.
"Let me try again, I have a plan this time." Yuma struggled to get out of the man's grip.
"Forgive me for being skeptical after you tried to pull the fire open with your BARE hands." Trudge retorted, pulling the boy away from the field.
Connecting the dots, Yusei winced at the conclusion he came to. "Guys, where's Luna?"
"She got taken to the Spirit World." Yuma told Yusei as he tried to pried Trudge's hand off him.
"The kid decided to duel for her since he got trapped in the fire." Trudge grunted, keeping his grip still.
In a moment of distraction when Devack called upon Earthbound Immortal Cusillu, Yuma escaped from Trudge's hold.
Wasting no time Yuma called upon his Ice Barrier for strength. Pulling his hand back as if he was holding an invisible sword, Yuma slashed down on the fire. To Yusei's surprise a blade made from darken ice formed in Yuma's hands splitting the fire. His mark illuminated the miracle even further.
Despite that, Yusei snapped out of it quickly when he noticed Yuma was struggling to hold the path open. He ran through the entrance and entered the battlefield.
Once Yusei was safe on the other side, Yuma lost his grip and was pushed back by the flame. Thankfully Trudge stepped in just in time to catch him.

Chaos erupted the moment the monkey realized who Luna really was. Regulus devised a plan to free Ancient Fairy Dragon. However as he left to face Zeman, the surrounding monkey minions took aim at Luna.
She froze when she spotted misty spells fired at her.
In a blink of an eye Utopic Future unfurled his wings. Gliding across the battlefield, he reached her just before the mist connected and pulled her out of safety.
Holding her by the back and knees, the warrior continued to dodge the attacks. A few spells did manage to hit him though as he was shielding her but he kept going.
The monkey freaked as they thought the curse did not work on him.
But that couldn't be any further from the truth. Being as close as she was Luna noted the rings on the spirit's finger shining even brighter than normal.
"I am at the beginning of the line. So do not worry, I won't disappear." Utopic Future reassured her as they weaved through the air. Only dipped down once to grab Torunka
Finally, Ancient Fairy Dragon was freed and Luna was rushed to go back to the human world. Still holding onto Utopic Future, Luna was maneuvered to be seated on one of his arms while he used the other to summon a silvery sword.
"Save your strength for rebuilding the village." Utopic Future told the Dark Sage. "I'll carve out the path for us."
"You can do that?" Luna asked. And although he didn't have any mouth she could tell that Utopic Future was smiling as he nodded.
A slash of a sword and Luna was introduced to a realm of stars and moon.

Even with Yusei there, taking a hit from Cusillu was excruciating for Leo. He curled into Yusei's chest, he put up a good fight but now wished desperately for Luna for help.
A beam of light answered his wish, returning his sister to him.
(-.-)
Staring down at the giant torched into the ground, Yuma's hands turned white from his grip. It wasn't looking good for Yusei, for although he managed to call upon Stardust Dragon, Earthbound Immortal Ccapac Apu could attack through the dragon.
Yusei resolved pulsed through the Marks and suddenly the Scale disappeared from Yuma's hand.
Through the screen on Crow's Duel Runner, the entire symbol appeared on Yusei's back with the scale situated in the middle of the circular body. Then a miracle happened.
"When the stars shine as one, they point towards a miracle! Become the path their light shines upon! I Synchro Summon Majestic Star Dragon!"
But a miracle couldn't ease the pain of loss, Kalin died in Yusei's arms and for a second time both Crow and Yusei lost their brother.
