Author's Note and Credits

All right! Teknisk Wereld: Trials of Heart is finally complete! But like before, I could not have finished this without much help! And here is where I award credit to where it is due!

Katal Blader: For Rue, Ruecian, Claire, Perseus, and their decks.

CyberTigerAngel: For Will, Neo, and Will's deck. And for his Redwall knowledge.

HikotageNoInyou: Oh boy… here we go. He has done Sarius, Raid, the Child, Cyrus, Juno, and Zork. In addition, he is responsible for Aya, Adene, Mach, Shadow, Lario, and all of the Mavericks, along with their Soul Monsters. I give him full credit for their amazing pasts. Much of the basic plot for this arc was made by his ideas. He also proof-read all of this. Thanks for pointing out my mistakes!

DarkChiWizard22: Geez, he's done a lot. Max, Olympion, Brandi, Mana, Randall, GaBa, Matt, Masque, Abby, Chasity, Ender, Thanatos, Vlad, Grendel, their decks (except Vlad's, since he didn't really have much of one), their past, and some other ideas for this story that are too numerous to mention are all done by him. He is responsible for the Maverick decks; I did Sarius' lot, for the curious. He also pointed out several errors in duels (along with a few in grammar), and helped me understand card effects I didn't get. Oh, and now that I think about it, he's the one who made me write this. He said he didn't think I could write serious fics. Look who proved you wrong! -Is shot-

Amy: Amy is my half-sister who lives in Florida. She really does have the same dad as me. Sam and Toby do indeed exist. She used to want to be an astronaut but hates flying. So she's now into politics. Yes, she did sleepwalk. Yay for Amy!

Julia, Samuel, Toan, and Josh: For being great friends! Oh, and for your love of cows Toan.

Caleb, ifrit, and Buster Blader: Thanks for doing really lame things in duels for me to comment on!

Epyon: He gets a separate category because I used many of our inside jokes that were originally made by him. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED WITH THIS CREDIT? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED! Keep on reading though. Sephiroth may show up if you do!

David Clement: This guy wrote a book called The Sight that had two wolves called Fell and Larka, who were brother and sister. Those names were some of my favorites, so I named my two characters after them. I offer thanks for his awesome work! (He also wrote Fire Bringer, which is another good book.)

Whoever created Xenosaga: I based Zack's design off a character from here. (The character was Ziggy, in case you ever play it or something) So thanks to whoever created him, because his design rocks! I also stole Helmer's and Captain Lapis Roman's names from it. They rock.

Edo's: His website has every translation I have used, and I am extremely grateful he made it!

Whoever the heck created Yu-Gi-Oh: Obvious!

All of my reviewers, here and on the Yu-Gi-Oh Social Board: Thanks for the positive remarks, and reading this whole thing! You guys and girls rule!

A few names I would like to mention: John, Captain Obvious, Demon Fan, and DesVostgalph! Thank you all for reviewing this story! 31 reviews is something to be proud of when you consider this arc was short, and I am honored you all found my story that interesting! I'll also thank Habba for reading it, even though he didn't review.

And, last and least, Nokia: For creating the N-Gage for me to bash on! (Although I didn't get the chance to in this story…)

The next arc is quite a change in pace. It should be up in exactly one week, because seven days will represent seven years passing.

-Puts up sign that says The End on it-

Kuribo: -Squeals delightedly and tackles Mephistopolis with happy eyes, finally grabbing onto him-

Mephistopolis: I surrender… -Waves white flag while crying-

…Ok, that's it folks!
