Two days later, Serenity lay at home, writing in her diary. A diamond ring was on her finger, glittering in the light.
Dear diary,
Yesterday, we celebrated the defeat of Marik. Of course, we also celebrated something else.
I talked to Duke about the kiss that I gave him earlier, and I told him that I was sorry, but it wasn't true. He nodded in an understanding way. Later, we had a party at the Kaiba Mansion, because we decided to pay Mokuba another visit. He's surprisingly a lot happier now. I guess some people heal faster than others. I was talking to Tea, but out of the corner of my eye, I saw Yami talking to Duke. He was showing him something. Duke nodded, and smiled. I guessed that they were calling a truce. But that wasn't all.
Yami asked me if he could talk to me. I said yes. He grabbed my hand and took me away from Tea, to the middle of the room. And then, the most amazing thing happened. He kneeled down, and held out a small black box containing a diamond ring. He was proposing to me, in front on everybody! If he was any other guy, I probably would've waited longer. But, there's something about Yami, that I can't put my finger on. He's not just any other guy. I decided that couldn't say no. He hugged me, and kissed me. Everybody was cheering. I think he was happier than I was that day.
Well, that ends my adventure with my friends. I'm still sad about Joey and Mai's deaths, but now that I am engaged, my life is happy again. I still have the dog tag, I cleaned it off though. I'll keep in until I die.
Well, I'm tired now, so I'm going to go to bed. If there's one thing I learned in this adventure, it's that no matter what situation, love, hope, and courage can save you from the lies that dare to haunt you. But, I just have one more question. Is it really over?
At midnight, the night was quiet. If you were outside by the cemetery, you would know that it wasn't over yet. Somebody was searching for something. He was a pretty tall man. He seemed to have found what he was looking for. He laughed as he picked up the rod. "Now that that's over, I can continue what I started. I'm not usually a kind man, but thanks for the distraction, Marik. I'll continue to take spirit monsters from people's souls. Soon, duel monsters will be much more than a game. The man laughed, and left the cemetery silently. As he walked down the street, he dropped something. A ruby ring hit the sidewalk and shone. For a second, it showed the dead body of a 17 year old, with brown hair, and blue eyes, a slit in his throat, and a knife in his hand. Then, it cracked, and the image disappeared.
The tall man walked down the street, his white trenchcoat bright in the dark. Clearly, it wasn't over yet.
Well, that's my fic! Thanks for reading, you guys! I'm thinking about writing a sequel, but I want to know what you guys think before I do, so let me know!
