Yu-Gi-Oh: Team Zero Duelists

Disclaimer-Everyone look! I did it, I made you look. Oh and I don't own YGO

Chapter 29: Psycho attack. The end in three turns

Sachiko lay unconscious, bandaged up on her shoulder in the medical ward. Ronin, Reku, and Akina couldn't really explain to the doctors exactly how she got an axe cut on her shoulder but that now she had it and she was unconscious.

All three of them sat out in the waiting room outside the door to the medical ward. Slowly they all looked up as the door opened. The all jumped up expecting the doctor but Mr. Hiroshi walked out.

"Kids, I am sorry about this misfortune..." He began, the kids all looked at him disappointed. "It was a shadow duel wasn't it?"

Reku was the first to snap up. He ran over to Mr. Hiroshi and got right up into the mans face.

"How do you know that? What is a shadow duel?" Reku questions were almost so run together that they weren't understandable.

"Well, I am sure that you have been told this before. The shadow realm is a place were terrible duels were once held. It is deemed as the home of duel monsters. In ancient Egypt this was the place were pharaohs and sorcerers played the game that we deemed as duel monsters." Mr. Hiroshi looked around at the three very startled kids. "You see, kids when someone loses a shadow duel their soul is trapped in the shadow real and that soul fuels that persons shadow magic. The more souls captured the more power one can obtain."

"And you're just letting this happen in your tournament?" Ronin angrily charged over to Mr. Hiroshi.

"Ronin, wait!" Akina called from behind him. "We don't need any more of this. Just tell us Mr. Hiroshi," she looked at the man, "how do you know all this about the shadow realm?"

"Well," Mr. Hiroshi glanced down at his watch, "oh my, it is time to start the next round. Come now you don't want to be late."

"I don't know if we are up to it." Ronin looked around at his team mates. "I think this is more important."

"Did I fail to mention that the only way to get back someone's soul that is lost in the shadow realm is to win it back in a shadow game."

Ronin's, Akina's, and Reku's eyes lit. Turning around they charged out of the medical ward.

The elevator made a soft ping as it reached the dueling floor. The three determined kids walked out to the dueling rings. Out of the corner of his eye, Reku caught a snot nosed grin coming from Seki. He decided to blow it off in hopes that he will get her back for what she did.

"Team Psycho?" Ronin asked as he stepped up on stage.

"Team Zero?" The obvious leader asked back. Both nodded and the two team captains walked to each other. "We were beginning to wonder if you were going to show up at all."

"Listen I am in no mood for any jokes so lets just duel." Ronin shuffled his opponents deck and then took his back.

"Fine, I Nick Sarch, leader of Team Psycho will win this."

"Duel" they both called as they both drew five.

"Me first!" Ronin drew his card. "I play one card face down and one monster in defense mode. Go!"

"Draw!" Nick drew his card. "All right Mr. Angry I will play one defense monster and end my turn."

Ronin placed his fingers on his deck. A white aura could be seen flowing around his body. Ronin snapped the card from his deck. "I activate Raigeki, say goodbye to your down card." A flash of lightning and the face down hologram was gone. "Now I sacrifice my face down monster to summon Terrorking Salmon (2400/1000)."

A large fish monster appeared in place of the face down monster. "Now, reveal face down card Hydra fusion. I fuse the Humanoid Slime and my Worm Drake to summon Humanoid Worm Drake (2200/2000)". The large gel creature appeared next to the salmon monster. "Double direct attack my beasts!" The two creatures flew across the field and collided with the team caption. Wining the duel.

"Wha...What?" Mr. Hiroshi watching from his place in the computer room. "That was impressive. The fastest win in the history of the tournament. I knew that they had the power, it took just a little motivation to bring it out."

Ronin walked off stage to his two team mates. "We are one win closer to getting to fight Team Chaos."

They walked over to the sidelines and sat down watching the other people duel. Reku looked down at his duel disk to see that Sachiko's deck was still there. He removed it and handed it to Akina. When she realized that Reku was handing her something she looked at him confused.

"I don't want to see your deck Reku." She said looking at the deck in his hands.

"Not mine, Sachiko's. She was using my duel disk." Reku watched as Akina's face broke down again and started to cry. She leaned forward and buried her head in Reku's chest. Reku wrapped his arms around her giving her a hug.

Ronin looked at the deck still in Reku's hand. He then looked at Reku and the back of Akina's head.

"I didn't even knew she had a deck. I thought she didn't like to play." Ronin got up. "I'm going to take a breather, I will return soon." And with that Ronin literally ran out the doors to the elevators.

Back in the control room. Mr. Hiroshi was watching the duels still in progress. He jerked his head around when he heard a back door to the room open and close. Into the room stepped Mr. Yoshiharu. They looked at each other in an awkward silence before either of them spoke. It was Mr. Hirsoshi that spoke first.

"I know that they are hurt now but they must push on. This is only the first step for them."

"Yes, and they are trying. Even I felt Ronin's duelist powers from down in the lobby. He and his team were close knit." Mr. Yoshiharu walked up next to the chair. "And you are still certain that they are the ones?"

"Positive. I sensed it the first time I met them. Of course in order to get them back onto the field I had to reveal I know about the shadow realm."

"Oh, lovely. What do they think of you now?"

"Can't say for sure. I got mixed signals. But now that I have revealed the way to get their friend back I have never felt their energy stronger." Both of the gentlemen watched the screens slipping back into just silence.

Down in the lobby, Ronin sat on the bench there, head buried deep in his hands. He wasn't crying but he was deep in thought.

"It was all my fault. I suggested to go to the gift shop. Sachiko stayed back to keep an eye on Reku. If I would have never suggested that she would still be here." Ronin fell off the bench to his knees. He looked at his hands. They were shaking badly. "I did it, SACHIKO, COME BACK!" Ronin fell forward slamming his fists into the ground.

"Ronin Endo." A female voice rang out.

"Wait! Who is there?" Ronin looked around the empty lobby.

"Don't give up Ronin, it wasn't your fault. You and your friends are destined for greatness. There is just one task that lays in front of you."

"But wait, what task? I don't even know who you are." Ronin was on his feet now looking for the source of the voice.

"You have a tournament to win." And with that the voice disappeared. Ronin could no longer sense its presence.

Back at the arena's all the duels were coming to an end. The remaining teams walked back up to the front of the room. Reku had his arm around Akina's shoulder and she was holding his hand. It was very obvious that she had been crying. Reku, trying his best to be strong for Akina, couldn't forget what Sachiko had told him before she was defeated.

/Flashback/

/"Listen Reku, you have to be strong. Akina really likes you and she really needs you." She pushed his arm off her shoulder. "You need to be strong for her, look out for her. I have always known this."

"What are your talking about?" Reku was completely lost. Why was Sachiko telling him all this? He looked at her concerned.

"You too were meant for each other. Win this tournament okay." Sachiko stared back, unblinking. "Promise me you will be strong for her."

"... ..." Reku stared at her

"Promise me!"

"Okay, I promise, but what is going on here?" Reku looked at Seki who was tapping her foot on the ground in anger. "Seki? What.."/

/End Flashback/

Looking down at Akina for a second he was reminded of that "All right, I'll be strong for her. Sachiko I promised you."

Mr. Hiroshi walked out in front of the duelists. Looking at the four remaining teams he picked out Reku and Akina. He couldn't help but feel bad for their lost but he knew that they had to push on.

"All right people. The advancing teams are as follows. They are matched off in the order of two's that I will say. Team Zero and Team Zone. Also that puts Team Chaos and Team Atom together. The winners of these matches are going to the finals. Play your hardest."

Easiest duel I have ever written. Why, to show you never want to anger Ronin.

To John: I will assume you were talking about my story.

To Nanashi Minimino: Don't worry, Sachiko is still with them in spirit. Oh and her body is there to it is just soulless
