The Next Generation.
Chapter Eighteen - Destiny Fullfilled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Why did you offer to stick behind. The idea was that I stay behind and everyone else was safe." Seth said. Kaiba smirked. "Because you're still a kid. You caan't fight on your own." Kaiba said. Seth glared. "It's not like you care all that much, so why are you doing this?" Seth asked. "I'm doing this, because for my future self to look after you, I would've had to have seen something that was worth looking after." Kaiba said.
Seth bit his lip. "We have to find Kieran." Seth said quietly. Kaiba nodded and went with Seth. Wondering what was bothering him so much. Maybe it was the fact that so many people had died. Or maybe it was the fact that he had been helpless to stop it. Kaiba looked at Seth, who seemed aged by years of tradgedy. That was when Seto knew what it was. It was lonliness. Before, Seth had thought that all his friends would survive. Now there were so few of them left. Only Ben, Maya and Tara. Tara was only barely alive. Kaiba had a terrible feeling that Kieran wouldn't survive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie's blast reverbeated through the street. Kieran was in shock. Had she missed? Then he looked behind him. No one was left. No one was chasing him. He looked at Katie. "I'm not sure why, but they have no control over me." Katie said quietly. Kieran hugged his old friend. She wasn't under the Prowlers control. THAT was something that Kieran would always be thankful for.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seth and Kaiba were now looking around. They had found Jeff. Burying him, they carried on. Kaiba could see the look of isolation growing on Seth's face. That was when they saw Kieran. But they also saw Katie. Seth ran over and hugged her. Katie hugged back. "I'm just glad to see both of you." Katie said. She then looked at Kaiba. "I'm sorry." She said.
It was all she said. She felt Kaiba pull her into a hug. They didn't say anything. Nobody needed to. They were just glad to be alive. They walked back to the warehouse in silence.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They prepared for battle. Kieran, Ben, Maya, Katie and Seth. Tara was still unconcious. They all had their jobs to do. They knew they might die. But it was too late to turn back now. They would face their challenge, head on. None of them had a clue what they would face, but this was it. It would be the Prowlers, or them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ben and Maya took the subway tunnels. Destroying every Prowler they came across. There was no way that they could afford to let any of them escape alive. They would not be bombarded by Prowlers, and be destroyed. This was their battle now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kieran decided to be the lone wolf. He went to lone buildings that housed Prowlers, and destroyed them. None were left alive, they would be wiped out. Even if Kieran had to sacrifice his life to do it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie and Seth, were going after the leaders. He looked at Katie. "You know that when the Prowlers are destroyed, you'll go back to being dead, right?" Seth asked nervously. "It doesn't matter. I'll live to see peace. It's what I wanted." Katie said. Seth bit his lip. "It's not fair. Everyone I knew, the people I love andd care about, are dying one by one. It's just not right." Seth said. Katie looked at him. "Seth, you know, I don't want you to be sad when I di." Katie said. "That doesn't stop me from feeling sad. Feeling like I've lost a part of my self. You're like my only family Katie. I don't know if I can handle you dying again." Seth said. Katie smiled softly. "If we get rid of the Prowlers, then maybe we don't have to be sad. Everything will change. We'll never know about the Prowlers. Because they will all be gone." Katie said. "I never thought of that." Seth said. The two carried on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kieran was down to one more place. Marik's building. He pulled out his change of heart card, and got ready to bring it down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ben and Maya had nearly cleaned out the subway tunnels, they only had one more section to go, then they would go and help Kieran. They knew that Katie and Seth wanted to handle the leaders on their own.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie and Seth were stuck. Two seperate corridors. Both led to the leaders. Now they had to split up. "Good luck Seth." Katie said. He smiled at her. "We don't need luck. We're gonna win today." Seth said. Katie wasn't so sure. They both went down differant corridors. Both hoping tat they would make it out alive. Knowing their battle was over.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vicky, Marika, Yugi and Ryou were sat on the outside steps of the warehouse. All wondering what had happened to the others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kieran had finished it off. He watched as the last warehouse that belonged to the Prowlers went up in flames. He detroyed an that made it out of the place alive. There would be no mercy for the people that had destroyed his world. His brown eyes, had turned red in the firelight. It was sunset and the bruning destruction was all that was left odf the warehouse, as Kieran wtched it burn. He was joined by Maya and Ben. The three watched as the smoke spiralled into the night sky. None of them caring that it had once been a domain for the Prowlers. Now t was up to Katie and Seth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kate walked along the corridor. She wished that she could be like other people. As it was, she was a walking corpse. She saw her parents. She bit her lip. Knowing that this was a trap sent by the Prowlers. She pulled out her Blue Eyes White Dragon. "I know you're not real." She whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seth made it to the end of the corridor. Finding nothing in his way, he walked in. That was where he saw twenty doors, in a large circular room. The door behind him closed, and wouldn't open again. Seth couldn't tell if it was locked or jammed. But now he had a choice to make. Which door would take him to the leaders. Which door would take him to destruction. He looked at them all in confusion. The doors were all exactly the same, and none of them looked any differant. The sad part was that Seth had to decide soon. It would soon be night time. The sun was already going down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie looked at them. She was confused. The monitor entered the room, and the leaders head appeared on the screen. "Well, one of them isn't under m control anymore, but you'll have to decide which one it is. That way, Miss Kaiba, You'll be able to find which way leads to us. Your little friend Seth, has the same dillema. He just has to pick the right door." The monitor flew out of th room. Katie glared. Now she too had a choice to make.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seth concentrated on the doors. He decided to go by instinct. Like his Uncle Setp had taught him to do. He walked to the fith door on the left. Then opened it. He found himself in another corridor, but it lead to a computor room. He smirked as he found himself, face to face with the leaders.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie wasn't sure what to do. She knew that it wasn't Nick, because she had sen Nick try to attack Seth. But she couldn't decide between her mother, her father, or her Uncle Mokuba. She looked at them all. "I'll tell you the right way Katie. I promise." Katie looked at her mother. Then she heard another voice. "The only way to be sure, is to detroy us all." She looked at her father. Then she made her choice. She let her Blue Eyes White Dragon destroy her mother and uncle. Leaving only her father behind. Even her brother was gone.
She smiled at her father. She felt him pull her into a hug. She hugged back. Then They started towards a door, that Katie hadn't noticed before. She was just glad she'd made the right decision.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Well, Seth, it appears that you'll be dead soon. You're the only one left." The leaders snickered. Seth pulle out his Dark Magician ready to fight. But they all pulled out monstors that were more powerful. Seth knew this was the end. "Maybe I can do one last thing before I die. I can take them all out. That way, there'll be no more pain for any of us." Seth thought. He used a Final Sacrifice card. (A/N: I made this up. Although there might be a card with the same name, or effect) This card, had the power to kill all the monstors on the field, by destroying your own monstor. Seth would die, but he would take down the leaders with him. Once teir monstors were gone, their lives would be finished. "This is the end." Sethn thought, as he closed his eyes. Ready for death.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie and her father saw the blinding flash of light. Then there was nothing. Silence. No sign of life. Katie ran into the room. The leaders had been incinerated. Seth collapsed to the floor. The pain was so evident on his face. Katie held her old friend in her arms. "See, I promised, I would fight for peace." Seth said quietly. Katie felt the tears rushing down her cheeks. There was nothing. She could do. She knew he would die.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kieran, Maya and Ben, felt themselves fading away. "They did it. We'll never know the pain that the Prowlers bought to our world." Kieran said. The three hugged. As they faded into the night sky.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie saw the breath leave, Seth's body. But se saw him fade away. "Otousan, I don't understand." Katie loked confused. "The Prowlers don't exist. They can't make your future miserable. You won, Katie." Katie hugged her father, as they too, faded away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tara, disappeared. The others were confused. As they looked around the city, they didn't remember that they'd met their children from the future. They had no idea, what had happened. Their memories of the children of the future were gone. Because now, they ceased to exist.
(A/N: Should I leave it here. Hmn........ NAH!!! THAT would be WAY too sad. So I'll tell you what. Carry on reading.
(A/N: Sorry couldn't resist. NOW you can keep on reading)
~*~*~*~SIXTEEN YEARS LATER~*~*~*~
A large tournament was being held. It was down to the finalists. The two finalists, were Katerina Kaiba and Seth Moto.A group of kids, Maya Devlin, Ben Wheeler, Tara Wheeler, Jeff Taylor, Kieran Bakura, Nick Kaiba, Seth Moto and Katie Kaiba had turned up at the arena. Their parents were behind them. All of them wishing good luck, to Katie and Seth. They were about to go in. When a little seven year old girl ran up to Seth. "Good luck big brother." She blinked ctely at Seth. He picked her up. "Thanks squirt. Now go back to mom and dad, and behave." He said. Tickling the little girl, who squealed with laughter. Seth put her down, and she ran over to hide behind her mother's leg. "Mommy, tell Seth not to tickle me." The little girl said. "There's no point in that one Marika, Seth won't listen to you." Vicky said. Marika laughed. The group, had stuck together, and everything had turned out alright.
Marika and Yugi ran the games shop. Seth helped sometimes, but was having more fun, being a kid, and turning his kid sister, Ria, into a duelist. Ria was a hyperactive little squirt that was always happy. Yugi's grandpa, had died from a heart attack, a year ago. But even though everyone had been saddened by this, they excepted that he'd been very old, and that it was his time to go. Seth had been entering competitions for ears, and had earned himself the title, of a top-ranked duelist. He'd crushed his friend, Ben in the semi finals. But Ben and Seth had both tried their hardest. So Ben hadn't really ben upset about it.
Seto ran KaibaCorp and Ren made sure that he didn't live like a hermit, and bury himself into his work. Nock was sixteen, and nearly ready to go to college. He was the local big brother of the group, and whenever anyone had a problem, they went to him. The whole group of kids were going to miss him. Katie, was a computor genius, and her father let her come and work at the company after school when she wanted to. H said that he wouldn't allow her to, but for the fact that she didn't spend all her time there. Seto said that he wanted Katie to have time for fun. Katie was a fun-loving person, but hated being the youngest child. It annoyed her. She was very independant, and hated the fact that all the guys were over-protective of her. If it wasn't for the fact that they were over-protectve of the other girls too, Katie would've been insulted. But she dealt with it.
Vicky and Ryou were both archeologists, they travelled alot, but always tried to be at home, during the school holidays. Kieran grinned at his mom and dad. A ten year old boy was hiding behind Vicky's leg. "Sam, don't hide from mom in the arena, you'll get lost." Kieran said to the boy. He nodded, and held on tightly to Vicky's hand. Kieran and Sam had to stay with their Auntie Marika, when their parents weren't at home, but they were glad when they got to spend time with them. Kieran was one of he popular guys at school. He wasn't quiet or shy, he had confidence, in everything he did. He got good marks in school, and played duel monstors in his spare time.
Tristan and Tea had gotten together. Tristan ran a leisure centre. Although even he admits, he's not sure how that happened. Jeff helps out on the weekends at the centre, but most of the time, he's hanging out with his friends.
Duke Devlin still ran his games shop, and Serenity definatly helped. Together they made the place a sucess, but not as popular as Yugi's games sho;. People were just so used to Yugi, that they went to his shop more often ten not. But that was O.K. because Duke Devlin was rich before he opened the games shop. Maya was always somewhere else. Mostly with her friends. But now that she was stuck with a baby brother, she tried to help on schooldays. The weekend was her time to relax from everything. Serenity was holding the one year old boy. Who squirmed to play with his big sister's hair.
Joey and Mai ran a bakery. But Mai complained that she had to put electric guards arond the cakes, to stop Joey eating them. Tara was a study fanatic, and pretty much, always got an A+ on her grades, and essays. Ben liked to goof off, but he was serious, when it came down to something important. The two got along most of the time. Tara, had faced Katie in the semi-finals, but had lost, because Katie had used her blue eyes white dragon, and Tara hadn't been prepared for it.
The group watched their two frends walk into the arena. They were all fourteen, and living life they way they should. They went to their own seats to watch the finals match.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie and Seth looked at each other. They went to walk onto their sides of the arena. Katie hugged Seth. "Good luck." She whispered in his ear. "We don't need luck Just have fun." Seth whispered back. The two got themselves into the duel arena. Then duelled the best match that they'd ever played. In the end, Katie won. Unbelievably enough, by turning Seth's final destiny card on him, and sacrificing her Kurriboh, so that it made only a dent in her lifepoints.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The group walked out of the arena, together. The sun was setting, and they all wondered what life had in store for them now. As they walked down the street and tried to talk over each other.
Their parents merely followed behind and smiled at their antics. Kieran lifted Sam onto his back, and Seth lifted Ria. The two youngest were never left out. Maya was holding her baby brother, and Tara and Ben were shoving each other playfully. Nick merely watched over them protectivly, and Katie and Seth took the lead. All glad to be going home, after a long day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Why did you offer to stick behind. The idea was that I stay behind and everyone else was safe." Seth said. Kaiba smirked. "Because you're still a kid. You caan't fight on your own." Kaiba said.

Kaiba had a terrible feeling that Kieran wouldn't survive.

Kieran, Maya and Ben, felt themselves fading away. "They did it. We'll never know the pain that the Prowlers bought to our world." Kieran said. The three hugged. As they faded into the night sky.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie saw the breath leave, Seth's body. But se saw him fade away. "Otousan, I don't understand." Katie loked confused. "The Prowlers don't exist. They can't make your future miserable. You won, Katie." Katie hugged her father, as they too, faded away.

Mostly with her friends. But now that she was stuck with a baby brother, she tried to help on schooldays. The weekend was her time to relax from everything. Serenity was holding the one year old boy. Who squirmed to play with his big sister's hair.
Joey and Mai ran a bakery. But Mai complained that she had to put electric guards arond the cakes, to stop Joey eating them. Tara was a study fanatic, and pretty much, always got an A+ on her grades, and essays. Ben liked to goof off, but he was serious, when it came down to something important. The two got along most of the time. Tara, had faced Katie in the semi-finals, but had lost, because Katie had used her blue eyes white dragon, and Tara hadn't been prepared for it.
The group watched their two frends walk into the arena. They were all fourteen, and living life they way they should. They went to their own seats to watch the finals match.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Katie and Seth looked at each other. They went to walk onto their sides of the arena. Katie hugged Seth. "Good luck." She whispered in his ear. "We don't need luck Just have fun." Seth whispered back. The two got themselves into the duel arena. Then duelled the best match that they'd ever played. In the end, Katie won. Unbelievably enough, by turning Seth's final destiny card on him, and sacrificing her Kurriboh, so that it made only a dent in her lifepoints.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The group walked out of the arena, together. The sun was setting, and they all wondered what life had in store for them now. As they walked down the street and tried to talk over each other.
Their parents merely followed behind and smiled at their antics. Kieran lifted Sam onto his back, and Seth lifted Ria. The two youngest were never left out. Maya was holding her baby brother, and Tara and Ben were shoving each other playfully. Nick merely watched over them protectivly, and Katie and Seth took the lead. All glad to be going home, after a long day.
