Serenity finally collapsed at the base of a giant tree. She didn't even look if she was leaning up against tree sap or not, she personally didn't care. In her hand, she had a gun and on her shoulder was a backpack filled with a medical kit, some ammo and the knives Malik had swiped from a gas station. At her side was the Millennium Rod and around her neck was two items, the Ring and the Puzzle. She looked up and cried. "Yami, Bakura, why you two?" she said as heavy tears fell from her face. Wiping them away, she stood up and walked on through the heavy brush.

Yami and Bakura were walking with her as if everything was normal, but it wasn't. There was the dead walking around and eating people for a source of food and now, the two yamis were gone. Yami collapsed first into the dirt and screamed in agony. Serenity rushed over to him and tried to help him up but her arms went right through him. Bakura yelled at the former pharaoh to get up but Yami didn't hear him. He continued to scream until there wasn't anymore. The tri-colored hair yami was gone. Bakura picked up the puzzle and held it in his thin fingers. Bakura cursed that the pharaoh was gone and that he would soon disappear into the darkness as well.

Because Ryou and Yugi are gone, they had to disappear as well. If those two had died of natural causes, the darker halves of them would still be around but now… they're not, Serenity thought as she wrapped her hands around the Ring and Puzzle. A week after Yami had died, Bakura underwent the same treatment as the pharaoh and died, leaving Serenity to fend for herself. The zombies had noticed that she was left and still pursued her through the rubbles of cities, bloody fields and ruined forests before she stopped.

"I can't take it anymore. I give up. Joey, I'm coming to see you soon," she whispered as she pressed a knife to her wrist. Tears fell down her cheeks as she threw the knife away. She grabbed her legs and cried as she remembered her friends; her protective brother, her wanna-be sister, the dancing angel, the pharaoh, the King of Games, the tomb robber, the shy angel, the CEO, the child prodigy, the Egyptian witch, the tattooed guardian, the dice, the tough guy, tomb keeper, the psycho, the little warrior, and the nervous wreck. All of them had died and she was there to witness it all but not even their faces in her memories could bring her happiness. She knew that if she were to commit suicide, she would forever be tormented by hatred and pain. Why all of this pain? Why am I the only one left? Where are you guys when I need you all the most? She thought as she heard moaning coming closer. She tensed up and heard gunshots. "Goddamn, why don't they all die?" she heard.

Standing up she went over and saw three people that looked familiar. It was the three of them before. This time, they were familiar. It was Valon, Alester and Raphael. They were good again because the diseased pharaoh had helped them and now, they were left to survive. "Their bodies won't decompose for three more years," she said, scaring the shit out of them.

"Fuck girl. Don't you ever scare me like that again," one said in a very English accent that reminded her of Ryou.

"Sorry but I thought that you ought to know that," she said and turned to leave. She would leave the three of them to fend for themselves and if they survived, then they would. She didn't care what happens now, she was alone and she was going to survive until it was her natural time to die. "I'm never going to give up. Not because of these zombies but because I have the strength to," she said and heard barking. Looking towards the setting sun, Serenity saw Mokuba's dog. "Hey girl, let's go," she said, patting her thigh for the dog to come. "Let's go Serendipity," she said and walked off towards the horizon with two necklaces around her neck and a Rod at her waist. The rest of her Items and supplies were inside her backpack as she followed a shining star.

DM: Wow, that was a kinda cool ending.

Dragon: -wailing- THAT WAS SO SAD!

DM: Aw, it's okay. –wraps an arm around Dragon's neck- Now quit your crying and do the ending line.

Dragon: -sniffles- Okay. We hope that you have enjoyed this fic. Look out for more fics and please review at the end. Bye for now!
