Yami wasn't sure how he'd convince the boy to give up the doll but he had to try. He turned to the Dark Magician. "Um, no offence but could you maybe get the dragon to leave."
The dark magician smiled, realizing they were still a touch frightened of the creature. "Blue eyes, go outside and see if there's any danger."
The blue eyes whimpered.
"The boy will be here to play with you when you get back. Perhaps we could even convince him to ride you."
Mokuba looked over, "I c-can r-ride him?"
The Dark Magician smiled, "Yes of course you can. I'll show you later."
The blue eyes didn't like it but agreed. He then disappeared.
"How did he do that?" Yami asked.
"He has the ability to go from indoors to outdoors just by thought." The Dark Magician said.
"I see." Yami said. Then he walked over to Mokuba. "Okay, Mokuba put your hand here." Yami said moving the boy's hand to just below his neck about where his necklace should be. "Now concentrate hard till you see a necklace. Don't say anything just feel and feel for it."
Soon the boy's hand started to glow.
"ZERLINA." Yami said with his hand on top of the boys. Suddenly a baby dragon toy appeared on the floor next to them. Yami opened his eyes and picked up the toy. "Mokuba, I know your not going to like this idea much but I'd like to trade you, I'll give you this baby dragon if you'll give me Anzu."
At that the boy's eyes went wide and hugged his doll tighter.
"Please, I promise I wont hurt her. I need her to help you."
The boy didn't like it but after careful consideration he reluctantly made the trade. Yami hadn't lied to him yet. So for now he'll trust him.
Yami walked over and placed the doll on the ground near the dark magician.
The Dark Magician walked over to a wall and created a window. "Seto, Mokuba would you like to watch blue eyes fly?"
Mokuba quickly looked up at Seto, "C-can we?"
Seto squeezed his hand, "Of course."
They made their way over to the window to watch the blue eyes fly. The dark magician walked back over to Yami.
Yami and the Dark Magician both concentrated and at the same time said, "CRESCENT." The doll suddenly grew bigger. Then they said, "ZERLINA." The doll suddenly blinked.
Yami was surprised. He didn't really think it would work.
"I'm real? Why?" Anzu asked.
That really surprised Yami. Being enlarged and brought to life now she speaks was way too weird. He had to keep reminding himself this was a dream world. Things like this don't happen in reality.
Seeing Yami was still in shock, the Dark Magician spoke. "The young boy you comforted as a doll, now has a new source of comfort."
Anzu looked over and was sadden to see the boy hugging the baby dragon toy.
The Dark Magician understood and said, "Do not be sad. The reason you were brought to life was so that you could help me and the Blue Eyes White Dragon to take care of the boy."
Anzu looked at him. "What?"
"You are here to bring comfort to him, but unlike before where only you're being there could comfort him and you could do nothing to make him feel better, now you can." The Dark Magician said.
Yami quickly regained his senses. "If you don't want to do this, we can change you back."
Anzu shook her head, "No, he is correct. I've always wished I could bring him more comfort than just his holding me close. I always wanted to hold him and help spare him pain. Now I can hold him and truly care for him as he has me."
Yami nodded and turned around. "Mokuba, come here. I want to show you what happened to Anzu."
Mokuba wanting to know what happened to her quickly ran over to where Yami was and his eyes went wide seeing Anzu standing there.
Anzu bent down and held out her arms. "I'm real now little one. I'm real and I want to help comfort you."
Mokuba flew into her arms and hugged her tight. Anzu smiled and hugged him back.
Seto walked over. "I guess you did it. You've found a way to keep him safe forever."
"I guess I did." Yami said.
"I can help you get back if you need the help." The Dark Magician offered.
Yami smiled, "Thank you, I'd appreciate that." Then he bent down next to Mokuba. "Well little one, we'll be going now. You're safe. The monsters will never again hurt you."
Mokuba hugged him tight. "T-thank you!"
Yami hugged back. Then kissed the side of his head and released him.
Mokuba then hugged Seto. Seto was surprised but hugged back. Then the boy released him and walked over and stood in front of Anzu.
The dark magician then raised his hand and his staff appeared. Then he pointed it at Yami and Seto and soon they vanished.
"W-will we ever see them again?"
"I don't think so, little one. But they will always be in your heart."
Mokuba smiled he liked that.
"Come on, it's time you learned to fly." The Dark Magician said taking the boys hand.
Soon they were outside and the blue eyes was laying on the ground waiting. The dark magician used his staff to create a chair with a harness to keep the boy strapped in along with a seatbelt as an added safety measure.
He helped the boy get in and strapped him in.
"Are you sure this is safe?" Anzu asked.
The blue eyes turned and glared at her.
The dark magician had to keep from laughing. "He's offended that you think he'd let any harm come to the boy.
"Well, its not that I don't have faith. I'm just worried." Anzu said.
"Don't worry. I also included a magic bubble. The boy will like it cause it will also protect him from the heavy winds when Blue Eyes flies. But its main purpose is that if the straps fail, which they won't, then the bubble will gently bring him safely to the ground."
Anzu didn't like it but didn't argue anymore. She had to have faith in her new friends. They both seemed to want to keep the boy safe.
As the blue eyes took off at first Mokuba was scared terrified, but soon he was enjoying it. He then looked terrified as he saw some monsters yelling at them. The blue eyes fired his white lightening attack at them and Mokuba was shocked and thrilled to see them run off. He hugged the blue eyes tightly. Before the ride was over he'd fallen asleep.
By the time Blue Eyes made it back the Dark Magician and Anzu had fixed the playroom up and the Dark Magician had made it bigger to make it a true home for them all to live in happily.
