This is the final chapter of Protectors, Zombies, and Wolf Demons. Sorry if it wasn't gory enough. Anyway, Lukara has returned to his home world, leaving the Protectors to drown in memories. Has peace really returned to Domino? Read on, and find out!

Yami, Yugi, Joey, and Kairi placed their swords in front of the graveyard as a landmark. Brian fired a grenade launcher, and it exploded in the air before the shell landed with a soft thud. They all bowed their heads, their eyes shadowed as dawn approached silently across the sky.
"Do you think that Lukara made it back to safety?" Yugi asked Yami back at the game shop. The former pharaoh nodded, closing his eyes. Brian was polishing his shotgun while Kairi was listening to her new Disturbed CD, "Ten Thousand Fists". Joey was by himself, playing Halo 2 on Brian's X-Box. Brian looked over as Joey roared in frustration.
"Stupid Elite killed me!" the blonde screeched, nearly about to throw the controller down. His rage suddenly stopped as the others heard Kairi sing along to the song "Ten Thousand Fists".
"You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of ten thousand fists in the air," she sang. She then turned off the CD, and noticed that everyone was staring at her. "What?" Yami walked over, and played the song again. The music blared on the stereo, almost breaking the windows.
"I have an idea…" the Pharaoh whispered, smiling.
-Domino Stadium-
A cloaked figure appeared in front of the stadium, where the Dueling Death Roses were preparing for their concert. It seemed to glide along the ground as it entered the abandoned stadium.
Inside, however, Yugi wasn't practicing. He stood on the stage, looking out at the empty stadium. He sighed as the cloaked figure sat down in the front row.
"Yugi," it hissed, calling him over. The boy jumped off the stage, and made his way towards the stranger. "It's me, Lukara. I just wanted to wish you guys' best of luck tonight. I'll be watching." He reached into the cloak, and pulled out a small flute.
"What's this for?" a puzzled Yugi asked. Lukara smiled as he lowered the black hood.
"When you are in need, just play this," he whispered. "I'll be there to help whenever I can." Yugi placed the flute into his jacket as the others were calling his name.
-A few hours later-
The stadium was packed with the citizens, who couldn't remember being a zombie from days before. They cheered as the lights on the stage dimmed, and Brian appeared from the shadows, holding the microphone stand. Behind him, in the shadows, the others stood, waiting for his signal.
"I would like to give a shout-out to the Protector's new friend, Lukara," he shouted, waving to the knight in the audience. The spotlight dimmed, and the stage was in complete darkness. Music began to fill the air as smoke billowed onto the stage. The lights suddenly glowed back to life, and the entire stage was revealed as Brian began.
Brian:
Survivor, survivor.
One more goddamn day when I know what I want
And my want will be considered tonight, considered tonight.
Just another day when all that I want will mark me
As a sinner tonight, I'm a sinner tonight, yeah.
All:
People can no longer cover their eyes.
If this disturbs you, then walk away.
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten thousand fists in the air.
Kairi:
Power un-restrained, dead on the mark
Is what we will deliver tonight, deliver tonight.
Pleasure fused with pain this triumph of the soul
Will make you shiver tonight, will make you shiver tonight, yeah.
All:
People can no longer cover their eyes.
If this disturbs you, then walk away.
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten thousand fists in the air.
Brian:
We are the ones who will open your mind.
Leave the weak and the haunted behind.
Kairi:
We are the ones who will open your mind.
Leave the weak and the haunted behind.
Yami:
We are the ones who will open your mind.
Leave the weak and the haunted behind.
Yugi:
We are the ones who will open your mind.
Leave the weak and the haunted behind.
All:
People can no longer cover their eyes.
If this disturbs you, then walk away.
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten thousand fists in the air.
Ten thousand fists in the air.
Ten thousand fists in the air!
At the last word, the crowd and the band members punched the air, Lukara included. Yugi looked over at him, and smiled.
Did you like it? Was it a good ending?
