A/N- Hey, minna! Well, here it is! The moment you've all been waiting for! The EPILOGUE! The grand finale! I hope you like it.

Thank you all for sticking with me and enjoying my writing! (even if I sometimes didn't write so well!) You all are most definitely the best of the best and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Look to the bottom for individual awards! (gives all of you big batch of your favorite cookies and a YGO plushy of your choice!)

Subieko: You're right, it wasn't just the orphanage. It was the fact that everybody she ever came to care about ended up leaving her. She was bitter and lonely and by the time she got to the orphanage, she was just so mad that when they started taunting her about what she lost she decided to take it out on the world around her. After all, her mom and sister left, her dad died, her friend Bakura was taken away when her step-father moved them, then he left, and finally Bakura left again in the Shadow Realm when he rejected her for what she was doing. She was lonely and hurt and just wanted to take it out on the people around her and who better to torture than Yugi who possessed a Millennium Item (and just b/c we love to torture him?)

Kali Minnamo: (blinks) uh...you're welcome. Wow, that was...odd. Was your caps lock stuck or something? Jk...sure, I'll promote the story, but what's the title exactly and who's it by? You had a bunch of typos in that review and it was kinda hard to read...I'll put the story up in my bio. Cool! You're going to write that story after all! That's great, just let me know when you get it up and I'll promote it too!

Hazel-Beka: yeah, well, Una was the one that called it a flame, but that was how I thought of it too – constructive critism...I'm glad you liked this ending better than the last one.

Sorceress Vanessa: Wow, I'm glad you liked it so much! Thank you so much! You make me feel like writing this story is worth something. Thank you for the luck! I definitely needed it. I hope you like the epilogue even though it's short.

Una: Yeah, I know what you mean...I have 4 projects that I have to finish by the beginning of December and I have no idea how I'm supposed to do any of this!! My English teacher wants us to get 40 notecards worth of research done in a week while we're on vacation and some of us don't have access to the internet or a library!! She won't let us go to the library at our school and she's only letting us have 1 internet source...did you get that? ONLY ONE INTERNET SOURCE! I'm ready to sic Selina on her!! GRR...I really, REALLY don't like that woman! No, thank you for giving me a wake up call! I really needed it! (blushes) I'm glad you liked it so much! It makes all the trouble seem worth it. I can't wait for you to update! If this is the chapter that you told me about in that email then I'm only going to read it at home so I can cry and rant...Good luck on it!

Chapter 9- Epilogue

"Catch it! Don't let it get away!"

"Nice save!"

"Whoa! Good throw!"

"Hey, toss it over here!"

Serafina laughed in delight as the Frisbee soared her way. It had been three months since the incident with Selina in the Shadow Realm. The entire gang had come to the park for a picnic to relax and have fun.

Yugi, Joey, Tea, Honda, Ryou, and Serafina were throwing a blue Frisbee back and forth on the grassy part of the park. The fountain was to the right of them, far enough away that the Frisbee would not be swept into it where they could not get it out, but close enough that it could be seen.

Serafina gazed over to it where all the yamis had congregated. The guys were sitting on the stones encasing the water while Selina sat on a blanket (with the food) in the grass.

Bakura, it seemed was telling a humorous (albeit embarrassing to Yami from the looks of his expression) story as Selina was chuckling behind her hand, trying to keep a straight face.

Ever since she had saved them from the Shadow Realm—and herself—she had become very shy and vulnerable, almost as if she was afraid they would take advantage of her kindness...or as she thought—her moment of weakness.

It had taken them ages to help her realize they were her friends now. She had been very afraid and insecure, if not even a tad bit angry still. When Serafina had finally awoken and been able to talk to Selina, she had confessed that the only real reason she had helped them was because she had been saving herself.

When Serafina had asked why she did not take advantage of Serafina's unconsciousness to just escape with Serafina and herself, Selina had seemed surprised at the idea before quickly masking it and muttering something about Bakura being able to find a way out anyway.

She thought Serafina had been fooled, but that was not the case. Serafina had just given her a small understanding smile and left it at that. Internally, of course, she was whooping with joy at the open display of goodness from her yami.

It was just as she thought—Selina might have been mean and hurtful, but she was not evil, not completely; she still had some sense of goodness even if she did not want to recognize it.

She and Bakura finally made up and became friends again; they were always hanging out together, therefore leaving Ryou and Serafina to talk to each other as they went out to have "fun."

Although Serafina was pretty sure that their idea of fun was not so fun to whoever just happened to be around at the time.

While Bakura and Selina got over their differences in almost no time at all, Yami and Joey took much longer to come around. At first, they had been almost hostile, threatening to harm Selina whether it was Serafina in control or not, but thanks to the help of Yugi and Tea (who gave too many friendship speeches for them to take) they began to calm down and see the change whenever Selina took control.

Soon they began to ask Serafina to come with them every once in a while, whenever they wanted to hang out. Before long, Serafina was inducted into their group, becoming an official member.

Of course, all that time spent with Serafina meant that they had to suffer Selina's presence as well, but before too long, they began to see the goodness in Selina too (not that she never reverted back to her old self from time to time).

At the times when Serafina would catch Selina brooding and thinking dark thoughts of revenge, she would remind her of their bond of friendship and how Selina could always turn to her if she needed. When that did not work, Serafina would pull out the big guns—the little sister act.

She would give Selina a hug and tell her how much she was glad they were together again. It only took a few moments before Selina broke down and sighed before returning the hug and stating the same.

While Selina was far from mended, she was definitely getting better. She was relaxed most of the time and whenever she was with Bakura and Yami, she almost always had a smile on her face.

Not to say her ice cold mask did not come up every now and then, like when she was feeling angry or sad, but it was not seen as much as it used to. She had made Serafina her confidant and began to tell her about her life and the past experiences that helped fuel her rage, and all the while, Serafina would listen patiently and give her the love she so thoroughly needed (with the help of their grandparents).

It seemed so odd that after all the rejection and hurt felt by Serafina and Selina they could actually come together and make amends.

It just went to show that no matter what happened in the fight of good and evil, light and dark, there was always a perfect balance...

"Hey, Serafina! Here, catch!" Joey shouted, startling her from her contemplation.

Serafina smiled at the others, laughing as she caught the disk and threw it back and she knew...no matter what happened with her and Selina now...they would always be partners.

Even when more darkness and trouble came, they would face it head on...together.

For now, they would enjoy the warm air and sunshine and relax in the park.

A/N- It was short! I know and I'm sorry, but that was all I could come up with. It seemed like I was just rambling anyway...I hate, no ABHORE being discursive. You loose too much dignity that way so I figured I'd just end it before I lost myself completely (to the dark side...jk). At least I got it up this week. I tried over the weekend, but FF.N wasn't working for me.

NOTICE: For those of you that are worried about loosing me (not that there is many of you) I've already got another story idea...(I am such an idiot! I have too much to do as it is!) It's called Darkened Soul—something begins to take over Yugi and it's not good...It is just the idea...there's no real plot yet so it could take a while before it gets up...besides, I have three other...no, wait, it's more than that...anyway, stories that I'm working on so don't expect anything.
