(OPENING 3: Life is SHOW TIME by Sho Kiryuin from Kamen Rider Wizard)
Volume 5: Episode 51: The Frozen Night! Battle Dark Evangel!
In the previous episode of DKR:
The Dark Conquest RPG wasn't over yet as Yami Bakura transformed into his true form, Zorc Necrophades. Due to the final protection of the game, Atem could not summon the Gods to bring out the Horakhty, Creator God of Light to defeat the Great Evil God once more. With barely 20 minutes left, Yugi ordered everyone else but Team Dragon Knight to take cover as he and his friends engaged the gigantic demon god.
Team Dragon Knight fought against Zorc with the best of their abilities but despite Zorc revealing his perfect barrier, the very same Shadow Magus had. Now none of their attacks were unable to break through. Kojan observed, uninterested to in helping them.
Yugi tried thinking of a way to beat Zorc and soon saw the solution of beating the barrier. However he doesn't have a move to do the pressuring force to break a single spot on the barrier. That was until Haruto stepped in, inspired by Yugi's hope to give the teamwork part a try. Transforming into Wizard and using a new ring, the rider summons forth the WizarDragon and engages the demon god with the Dragon Knight. With their teamwork and a combination of the WizarDragon Rider Kick and the Dragonaun Tengoku Blade upon a single spot, the barrier cracked and their attacks cut through Zorc. The evil god soon exploded and the Dark Conquest had finally ended.
The day was saved by Team Dragon Knight as Haruto relearned that having friends to fight beside oneself isn't a bad thing. However, Yami Bakura survived his destruction and regrouped with the other villains, all of them defeated. Arkham wasn't finished yet, planning to finish the game but sadly that wasn't going to happen as the Dark Lord returned.
What will happen now?
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
Each member of the villains tremble or in Vlad's case shiver out of cold as they stare at the Dark Lord having returned at the worst of times. They failed in Yami Bakura's scheme and now they might die here.
Looking at their frightened faces, Akumu cracks a smirk as he taunts them. "No hellos?''
They all tremble as Roman speaks out laughing nervously. "Hey there, new boss man. How's it… going?''
Walking to his throne chair, Akumu sits down on it as he answers him. ''Better than the rest of you.''
He crosses his legs confidently before asking them with his eyes glowing red for a brief moment. ''So what have I missed?''
Silence is heard as each villain had nothing to say. Arkham calmly drinks his cup of coffee while Yami Bakura glares at the Dark Lord.
''J-Just...'' Eggman tries to fool their leader only to be stopped by the shadow of Dark General Knight, standing behind him.
''Answer your next words carefully, doctor.'' The dark knight threatens him, most calm. Robotnik gulps heavily.
Akumu snickers as he speaks, guessing why they're all silent of fear. ''Let me guess… Zorc's game flopped?''
Yami Bakura glares angrily towards him. Quaking as the dark knight's piercing red eyes literally pierced through the genius, Eggman immediately speaks up loudly. ''Y-Yes!''
Arkham sighs as he sets his cup down and says. ''It was working well, but…''
''Where's Greed?'' Akumu, having checked the table, demands as he spotted that the greedy Homunculus he likes is missing. The Meister hums worryingly. This worries the others too with Vlad, sneezing, answers. ''We… don't know.''
Akumu gazes towards the masked villain and asks him. ''Arkham.''
Arkham looks at the Dark Lord and tells him honestly. ''It is likely he was attacked and most likely captured by an unknown party when he lost his control of Tokyo. By whom… not sure.''
The Dark Lord stares silent and soon growls, getting an idea who could be part of this if his target is only Greed.
''I have an idea who.'' Akumu admits firmly. He groans madly as he then demands furiously. ''What else?!''
Arkham eyes Vlad, still shaking, as he groans.
''I… I lost track of Desiree, Vortex and Undergrowth.'' Vlad reveals to the Dark Lord who laughs once before saying with a furious tone. ''HA! You lost track of 3 dangerously powerful ghosts?!''
''Look I was in the middle of controlling that ninja-'' Vlad tries to explain his reasons but Akumu immediately realizes who's behind those ghosts' disappearance. ''The Akatsuki, no doubt their doing…''
Akumu then blinks to see Metal Sonic's head on the ground and the robot's eyes are still active, looking at him. Eggman picks up the head as he tries to reattach it.
''I thought you fix Metal?'' Akumu questions him and Robotnik hesitates before he can explain. ''He… got kicked… by one of those… Espadas.''
Immediately hearing that, Akumu slowly growls as he clenches his hands tightly into a fist. ''Aizen…''
Akumu turns towards Arkham and questions him enraged. ''Arkham, you were in charge of making sure none of this happened! WHAT HAPPENED!''
Arkham stares at him, finishing his cup of coffee before answering him. ''I was recovering. I engaged the Dragon Knight before our comrade's game began and I had him.''
That made Akumu to smirk as he assumed Arkham had a super form to fight the brat.
''Oh? So you did have a trump card. As should my third-in-command.'' Arkham praises her which enrages Dark General Knight. Arkham chuckles as he explains himself. ''I don't use it unless I am certain I will win and I almost did…''
He then hesitates, gazing madly at the thought that his triumph would happen over the Dragon Knight using his Malefic Tyrant form… and it all fell apart by his appearance. If not for him, he would have remained in that form and beat the Dragon Knight. Arkham tightens his hands, uttering out. ''Until he showed up.''
Akumu looks at him as Dark General Knight speaks, assuming it could be the one they fought and couldn't do a thing against him. ''Was that mysterious other Dragon Knight?''
Arkham shakes his head as he begins revealing who. ''No, it was another, a masked rider that he called-''
''Kuuga!'' Uttering out in shock, the Dark Lord speaks up with a staggering face. Dark General Knight looks at his lord, suspecting now that it could be him though he says. ''Or likely Kamen Rider 1, Ichigo…''
Arkham, more curious than puzzled, especially the last one, corrects the Dark Lord. ''Kuuga? No, he called himself a wizard.''
Akumu staggers while Evangeline overhears, humming.
''A wizard?'' Dark General Knight questions Arkham at this and immediately gets a confirmation from Evangeline, revealing with a small smirk. ''The Hope Ringing Wizard.''
The group turns towards her as the intelligent mage says with a smug smirk. ''I've heard stories about that one. He's a new mage that fights the Phantoms. Last I checked, he defeated a very powerful Phantom.''
The group unaware of her makes a face with Akumu humming, interested as he recalls those monsters: creatures born from the despair of humans.
''Aw yes, the Phantoms.'' The Dark Lord mutters also recalling a certain event that nearly made a whole city become Phantoms but it backfired. Wonder if this ''Wizard'' is behind that.
''Who's the kid?'' Eggman questions the Dark Lord who immediately gazes furious towards him and threatens him coldly. ''Mind your manners with her!''
Robotnik freezes up out of fear while Vlad stares silent. Arkham hums, sipping his cup of coffee.
Akumu soon taps his index fingers together while holding his hands together, uttering out. ''So a Kamen Rider then…''
This couldn't be any worse that Zorc's stupid plan summoned out a rider. It's only a matter of time that things become worse for him. He looks at them all and says irritated. ''So you failed, the brat has a new ally and I lost Greed and-''
His gaze on them soon causes him to stop to look at a familiar face from the past. Akumu widens his eyes and utters out. ''Beryl?''
The red haired woman looks up at the strange beard man she's never seen before.
''Do I know you, mortal-'' Beryl questions the human, mocking him… until Akumu chuckles and soon lets a vicious roar, transforming his human head in darkness and into the head of Dark Leader Dragon. ''RAAWWRRRR!''
This horrifies Beryl, widening her eyes as she utters out. ''Y-You!''
The rest of his body transforms into the demonic, black-gray scaled dragon man. He breathes as his red, sharp yellow dragon eyes gaze down at her. Beryl literally trembles, breathing heavily and it horrifies her to see him after so long… recalling the time she well… long story.
She simply bows shaking, speaking out of terror. ''L-long time, Dark Lord.''
Dark Leader Dragon gazes down at this woman, recalling long ago the first Dark Lord made an alliance with her and she backstabbed him in favor of Queen Metalia. He growls, looking towards Yami Bakura and demands him coldly. ''Zorc…''
Yami Bakura glares worryingly but Arkham speaks up calmly, correcting him. ''This was my idea, my lord.''
The black demonic dragon turns towards the masked man, breathes viciously. Arkham looks at him, tranquility, before he answers him. ''Since Team Dragon Knight has the Sailor Guardian of the Moon, we'll need someone to oppose her so why not the dark queen who tried to kill her long ago.''
The dragon still looks at him angrily but he relaxes, responding harshly. ''… Next time, let me know in advance.''
Arkham simply bows, going to remember that for the near future. Evangeline hums, eyeing Dark General Knight and asks him. ''What's their thing?''
Dark General Knight eyes her and gladly explains it. ''Let's say my lord doesn't trust those who will backstab him and Queen Beryl was one of them. Then again, she obeyed Queen Metalia and she died. Regardless, my lord doesn't like her.''
Evangeline listens and just forms a smirk. She looks at Beryl and taunts the pathetic woman, grinning softly. ''Wow… rather pathetic.''
The Meister blinks awkwardly as Arkham stares at the little and soon startles, realizing who this must be.
Beryl glares intensely but Evangeline's eyes are like blades as the whole is oddly consumed in cold darkness. This panics the evil queen as the little blonde girl says, still smirking. ''You pick some fool who died over a man who would kill you with ease.''
The others watch just as shocked by this girl's pressure, almost as strong as the Dark Lord's.
Standing up from his chair, Arkham expresses rather elatedly. ''You must be her!''
Evangeline becomes calm as she looks at this one, sensing his evil and it's not bad. Arkham approaches and kneels down as he reaches to her right hand and proclaims kindly, holding said hand like a proper gentleman. ''Evangeline A.K. McDowell, it is a pleasure to meet someone as evil as you.''
''Oh~…'' Uttering in a tease, Evangeline smiles rather impressed that this mortal knows of her. ''You've heard of me? How thoughtful.''
Arkham chuckles as he expresses. ''I take it a privilege to learn all about other villains, especially someone as powerful as you.''
This shocks most of the other villains, especially Beryl, as they all utter out. ''She?!''
Arkham looks at them humorously as he explains himself. ''She is immortal and can kill every one of you in a heartbeat, including myself!''
He then eyes Yami Bakura and taunts the so-called Great Evil God. ''Even you, Zorc.''
Yami Bakura glares with such murderous intention. Evangeline giggles at his look and speaks up to the gentleman who spoke of her. ''Oh but don't worry, I won't kill you. None of you.''
''I feel the same. I'm a really good mood, a bit.'' Dark Leader Dragon declares as he reverts to regular Akumu. He does look at Yami Bakura and tells him with a glee. ''But Zorc, the brat is now mine and only mine!''
Clenching his hands, Yami Bakura stands up and walks past him.
''… For now.'' Yami Bakura replies as he walks away. Zorc isn't done yet as his eyes glow, going to get back his revenge upon Yugi, soon… soon.
Akumu simply smirks, wondering about that. Now he should focus on tracking down Greed but that's one mess he'll need time to find out where. For now he has a Dragon Knight to beat.
''So since the brat beat you all, it's best I fix your mistakes-'' The Dark Lord begins to proclaim his plan to find the Dragon Knight and destroy him; he gets interrupted by Evangeline speaking up. ''Wait, Akumu.''
Akumu blinks, turning towards her, who has a face of interest. She's aware of the so-called Dragon Knight story and for one to be this strong does interest her. She never tracked one before so this would be an interesting experience now that her curse is about to be lifted.
''This Dragon Knight… I wish to confront your enemy.'' Evangeline declares, wanting to beat this knight. Akumu snickers, finding her adorable in wanting to fight the boy.
''You don't have to, my dear. I can-'' Akumu begins to protest but immediately Evangeline appears in front of him with such speed and floating in front of him. The other villains are taken back while Arkham chuckles, expecting no less from her.
''I won't say it again.'' Evangeline protests, making it clear she wants to fight this knight and she will. She soon gins as she then says. ''Besides, this might be my last night before I become free of my curse. Best I have some fun before then.''
Akumu looks at her and can tell she wants to have the most fun. He shouldn't deny her desires.
He soon smirks, pulling a photo and showing him the image of Yugi with Ichigo. Evangeline receives it and looks at it, humming with a smirk at Ichigo. ''So she's-''
''He.'' Dark General Knight corrects her. This shocks the blonde haired girl, making a puzzling face towards the human boy.
''This is the Dragon Knight? The Boku-chan with the ridiculous hairstyle?'' She questions out loud, finding this as a cruel joke. She even makes a face, wanting it to be the girl. She has a thing for girls and strong, worthy men... but this is well... not the case, at all.
(Boku-chan means calling someone a boy)
Evangeline sighs with a disappointed face, muttering out. ''Well… book covers are deceiving.''
''Eva, one thing…'' She looks at Akumu and makes a face of fury that she actually lets him call her that. Akumu then explains it to her, pointing at Ichigo's image. ''Do not kill her. She's my niece.''
Evangeline raises an eyebrow and looks at the girl, humming. So the Dark Lord does have a heart. Interesting. Makes her less worried that he will keep his promise to her.
''Fine.'' She responds carefree though she asks him with a grin. ''But everything else is fair game?''
Akumu smirks, nodding. Evangeline couldn't help but giggle.
''Good. Oh and don't worry about me, I can go alone.'' She advises him, wishing to do this with no help. That way her fun won't be ruined.
Akumu had already removed part of the curse out of Evangeline to not have her bound to Madora City. So now she can at least walk around with no drawbacks though the curse will still lock her powers if it's daytime. Luckily for her the night is long.
And Evangeline is taking full advantage of that as she dashes away with such unseen speed.
''Oh this should be fun.'' She tells herself, still grinning as she can't wait to hunt again.
Akumu sighs wishing to kiss her… but it is best that he does that after he realizes her from her other-other curse too. Still, there is no point that she should be having all the fun too.
''The brat thinks he's won Zorc's game but his happiness will soon spiral to despair.'' Akumu announces as he pulls out his phone and begins dialing. He sits down on his throne chair as his call connects and speaks from the other end. ''Yes, this is Akumu Momomiya. I believe I asked to call you at the end of the day. Yes, yes, thank you chairmen of Tokyo Schooling Education.''
Arkham overhears, humming what the Dark Lord is aiming for.
Since defeating Zorc and the Dark Conquest, Team Dragon Knight has been celebrating with the party they were going to do for Ichigo being fully recovered. Sadly they couldn't get all of their friends and comrades to come after what happened with Zorc's game but it's for the best to avoid problems with the neighbors.
The group had a blast as they talked and hung out, just like normal friends celebrating something nice.
Haruto watches from the corner of the room, seeing Ruby and Usagi doing a dance as they make most of the boys dance as well as Jonouchi doing the robot against Ryan who sweat drops heavily to impress Erika. Yugi is with Ichigo as he takes care of his egg, rubbing it with a cloth Ichigo gave him. Haruto smiles at how simple these guys are when a big threat is taken care of.
''SO…'' Haruto turns to see Judai and Naruto, grinning as they wave at him.
''Got a place to stay, Wizard guy?'' Judai asks him eagerly. Haruto knows best to correct them again as they're obviously playing with him. Judai maybe for sure.
''Not really but I'll figure things out.'' Haruto responds, going to try to find a place. He doesn't want to be some kind of homeless… mayonnaise idiot. Best he doesn't.
''You can stay with us!'' Naruto proclaims with a grin. Haruto hums at that thought, simply responding with a small smirk. ''Maybe.''
He wouldn't be a bad idea if they're this active.
''So who wants to dance the Macarena Nya?'' Ichigo steps up excitedly, purring. Immediately, Kurosaki shakes his head and declares, missing his REAL BODY still back in his room. ''I'm going now!''
He begins marching as Ruby and Usagi tries stopping him by gripping on his legs but the orange-headed Ichigo easily marches through their combined weight.
''Ah come on, Ichigo! Danny isn't-'' Ruby tries to say eagerly that he should stay; pointing at Danny… who wasn't there the last she saw him. She blinks awkwardly before uttering out, sweat dropping. ''Huh never mind, he left already.''
''I'm heading out too.'' Yugi speaks up; already thinking his sister would want him back home after everything that happened. He gently puts the egg back in his backpack as he tells Jonouchi. ''Jonouchi-kun, thanks for keeping my egg-''
''Always buddy, don't tell others!'' Jonouchi asks him as he tries to impress Erika who sweat drops kindly as did Ryan.
Yugi eyes Ichigo who smiles at him. He smiles back and tells her happily. ''Ichigo-kun, I'll see you tomorrow.''
''Same Nya!'' She expresses as she pets Skitty. Yugi nods as he bids his goodbyes to everyone including Haruto before he heads out. Ichigo watches him leave as she feels like she should tell himself.
After walking for about 10 minutes so far towards his home across the lit park, Yugi sighs with a small smile across his face. After everything that happened, it's a relief that he can enjoy the fresh air. It's amazing that he had probably one of the craziest days in his life.
''Today has been a rather strange day no?'' Atem, hovering beside his partner, says telepathically to him. Yugi nods softly, agreeing with a small smile. ''Yea…''
Yugi then looks up to the moon over the sky and smiles. It has been a crazy day but overall… he's not upset, he's happy. He's got to meet a new friend, regain his confidence and Ichigo is back to her normal self.
''But I'm happy.'' Yugi tells the Pharaoh telepathically, thinking that maybe… he has grown enough to try to do something about Kojan. Looking at his hand, Yugi feels that certainly he can try something and in response to those feelings, the egg in Yugi's back shines briefly.
''I think… I-'' Yugi begins to tell himself, making up his mind until his thoughts are interrupted by a familiar voice calling out to him. ''Yugi-kun!''
The tricolor head blinks and turns to see Ichigo rushing over with Skitty running beside her.
''Ichigo-kun?'' Yugi mutters out as Ichigo giggles.
''Nyan!'' Skitty purrs, running up to Yugi's leg and rubbing it. He blushes as he kneels down and pets the pink cat.
''Sorry, I wanted to come along with you Nya.'' Ichigo explains herself, feeling bad and wants to walk Yugi home for all the times he worries for her. Yugi looks at her and blushes softly, thanking her happily. "Thank you.''
Ichigo giggles as she watches Skitty making well… her business. She sweat drops as she says worrying. ''Beside, I have a pet to take care of, I guess Nya.''
''Oh yea. What are you going to tell-'' Yugi begins to ask her what Ichigo will tell her parents about Skitty but before he can, his eyes widen glowing red briefly as he senses someone.
Ichigo notices the look the tricolor head made, uttering concerns. ''Yugi-kun?''
Yugi turns to the tree and calls out firmly. ''Who's there? I can sense you.''
''Oh~…'' A teasing, feminine voice speaks up. Ichigo becomes alarmed as does Skitty. They watch as a small figure walks out from the woods, revealing to be a long blonde haired little girl. Yugi and Ichigo blink awkwardly at the gothic dressed little girl.
Evangeline looks at the two, thinking she could sneak attack the Dragon Knight but he's capable of sensing her. That isn't half bad.
''My, I didn't expect you to sense me. Not bad, Boku-chan.'' Evangeline praises the tricolor head. He looks at her and actually trembles. He can sense magic coming out of her and depths of darkness.
"... Boku-chan?" Yugi mutters out, really puzzled.
''Um what are you doing here all alone, little girl Nya?'' Ichigo questions her as she looks around and she doesn't see anyone else around but themselves. She smiles friendly-like as she asks her. ''Are you lost?''
Evangeline looks at her and scoffs at her stupid assumptions.
''I might be…'' She responds before her blue eyes gazes upon Yugi and declares with a grin. ''Or I might be here to kill the Dragon Knight.''
Ichigo slowly widens her eyes in shock while Yugi gazes at this girl worrying. Just when he thought his day was over and this happened. Just his luck.
Will our heroic Dragon Knight be ready to face his new enemy?
Commercial Break:
Yugi: I really-really wish that I wasn't going to face someone new this soon.
Ichigo: I think luck is always against us Nya. SIGH.
Ichigo makes an awkward face with what this strange little girl just called Yugi as the Dragon Knight.
She starts laughing nervously as she tries saying, pretending not knowing that. ''Is that some kind of game you kids-''
However her lie would be exposed as Yugi unsheathes his Dragon Sword to Ichigo's panic.
''What are you?'' Yugi questions the little girl, able to tell she's not normal. Evangeline smirks as his quickness to not play dumb or be dumbed.
"You may call me Dark Evangel.'' Evangeline introduces herself evilly as she grins delightedly. ''And the one who will end your life.''
Yugi looks at her, sweat dropping as he has no idea who she is but regardless he'll have to fight her.
''Sorry but you're not the first to say that to me today.'' The young Dragon Knight declares and sweat drops at the number of times he thought about not dying today.
Evangeline looks at him eagerly as she gazes towards Ichigo looking worried.
''Oh really~?'' The blonde haired girl questions him with a tease as her left hand's fingers flickers. Without them noticing, very thin magical threads suddenly wrap and attach themselves to Ichigo. Evangeline grins as she lifts up and dashes backwards. Yugi blinks, not following but before he knew it, Ichigo is suddenly pulled rapidly away towards her direction.
''NYA?!'' Ichigo screams as she's pulled inside the forest before Yugi can react.
''Ichigo-kun!'' Yugi yells out in shock with Skitty crying out in shock. ''Nyan!''
Giggling within the forest, the voice of Evangeline taunts him. ''Come and find her, Dragon Knight Boku-chan~.''
Yugi glares as he runs forward. Skitty shivers nervously but follows right behind him.
Deep within the forest park of the city, Evangeline hums sitting on a tree branch.
''Now then…'' She mutters as she looks at the frightened Ichigo, unable to move and floating in front of her. She hisses trying to move but the threads connected to her body have left her immobilized.
Grunting powerless, Ichigo simply asks the little girl in front of her, nervously. ''W-what do you plan to-''
Already assuming what she plans to do with her, Evangeline giggles at Ichigo's worries. She then tells the red haired girl, flicking her index finger as Ichigo is moved towards her. ''Oh, don't worry my dear. You'll be calling me mistress soon.''
Ichigo looks at her, not following until Evangeline floats in front of Ichigo's exposed neck and opens her mouth into a grin, revealing her sharp vampire fangs. She immediately bites her fangs upon her neck.
''NYA!'' Ichigo screams in pain before she's suddenly silent, her eyes blanking out. Evangeline pulls away as she licks her lips, having drunk her lovely blood. Lovely strawberry flavor.
Evangeline can even taste the human's magic. Now that's something, very something that got Evangeline to grin.
''Now to change you, my dear.'' Evangeline proclaims with a tone of excitement. She begins swaying her hands as her threads begin wrapping around the helpless red cherry head. The threads magically begin to oddly stripping off her clothes, dropping onto the ground including her Mew Pendant Necklace as her appearance changes rapidly as her wrapped up body glows.
Yugi looks around within the forest, looking around at every corner or using his ability to sense Ichigo's aura and nothing. This is upsetting him.
''Nyan!'' Skitty cries out for Ichigo, really worried for her.
''Ichigo-kun!'' Yugi calls out to her, hoping she responds but nothing. The tricolor head looks, starting to panic as his hands shake upsetly.
''Where she go?'' He asks, afraid that girl did something to her. He might have to use Burst Limit to-
But before he can, Yugi's eyes briefly glow red as his body moves to the left by impulse and dodges a figure dashing right through him. He evades the figure and startles noticing her red cherry haired.
''Ichigo-kun?'' Yugi mutters out of shock as Skitty groans, feeling something wrong about the cat girl.
The figure stands up and turns to reveal that it is Ichigo but her appearance is different. Her pigtails are removed to show her short, shoulder length hair. She's wearing a thigh and sexy red leotard with an open heart-shaped underboob cut with corset threads that exposes her underboob and her belly button. She wears a red, tight choker around her neck and gains red lips. She also wears a pair of fingerless, long red gloves with a pair of sharp bracelets around her wrists and sharp red fingernails. She also wears a pair of skintight long, red high heel boots. What is more shocking is that her figure has gotten sexier and hotter.
Yugi can't help but gain a boner by just looking at her appearance, so turned on by it. Skitty drops her jaw but still feels unease by her scent.
''Wow… what happened to-'' The tricolor head begins asking her but as he approaches her, Ichigo suddenly dashes at him with a powerful punch that Yugi quickly dodges to the side. He pants, staggered for a moment as he utters in shock. ''Ichigo-kun!''
Ichigo looks at him and grins softly, her eyes glowing red and showing vampire fangs. Yugi widens his eyes as Evangeline suddenly reappears, floating over her servant. ''Do you like her new appearance, Dragon Knight Boku-chan?''
Yugi looks up angrily towards Evangeline as she reveals to him, hovering evilly. ''This girl is now my loyal vampiric servant.''
Evangeline lowers down and tickles Ichigo's chin who giggles obediently.
''Well not fully vampire, yet.'' Evangeline says giggling. Yugi looks at the blonde haired little girl before blinking awkwardly and yells out in dismay. ''WAIT, YOU'RE VAMPIRE?!''
Evangeline hums, really forgetting to mention that. She then grins, replying. ''Oh I'm more than a vampire but yes.''
She eyes her loyal servant and commands her. ''Ichigo dear, do have fun draining his life.''
Ichigo slowly grins and bows obediently, responding. ''Yes, my mistress.''
The red cherry head giggles evilly as she walks towards Yugi menacingly.
''Nyan!'' Skitty cries out to Ichigo to stop but she ignores the cat's cries. Yugi looks at the pink cat mon and tells her smiling, ensuring her. ''Don't worry Skitty, I'll bring Ichigo-kun back to her senses.''
Skitty looks at him and nods softly. Yugi nods as he looks back and he is startled with Ichigo coming at him with such speed. She swings a thrusting hand like a claw with her sharper fingernails. Yugi dodges around the claw swipes, evading her attacks as he distances himself from her. But she dashes towards him just as quicker, swiping her nails at him faster. Yugi dodges them; dashing behind a tree as Ichigo hits the tree with her nails and imagining that will hurt her.
''Why isn't she using Ribbon Chidori or transforming?'' The tricolor questions himself, not getting why Ichigo, even brainwashed, isn't transforming or using her powers. He would get his answer as Yugi turns around and widens his eyes to witness the tree Ichigo hit and she literally cuts through it with her fingernails. She giggles cruelly before dashing right in front of him and thrusts her right hand at him. Yugi quickly repels it with the Dragon Sword as sparks fly out. Yugi is taken back as Ichigo's nails aren't even dented as she then kicks him so hard across the left side of his body that it slams him onto a tree and said tree falls backward by the impact.
Skitty drops her jaw as Yugi gets up dazed and surprised, rubbing his head.
''Okay… so she's much stronger without them now?'' Yugi tells himself, standing up with slight struggles to breathe. He rubs the side of his chest, badly hit hard by that kick and it feels much harder than when Ichigo is transformed.
Evangeline watches with a smug smirk. She has the ability to transform anyone she's bitten and/or wraps her magical threads with as her vampire thrall; a powerful slave with vampiric physical powers. However, a thrall she controls can be weaker if it's a normal human. But if that target is stronger with strong power and energy, they become infinitely stronger than those thralls and even become a pure vampire slave by Evangeline drinking/absorbing that energy and changing it. With Ichigo's case, she absorbed most of her magic and powers but in doing so, she reverted those powers into vampiric. However, this transformation is temporary so she has to use her up quickly and then make sure she remains as her servant. But first things first.
The blonde little girl grins as Ichigo comes at Yugi and not given a choice, Yugi triggers Yin-Yang Dragon mode to catch a fist and tosses her onto a tree which she stomps her foot on the trunk and bounces off it towards him. Yugi engages defensively, blocking another claw swipe and leads as she tries to kick him.
"Our ability to restore your girlfriend might be tricky with that woman's ability.'' Yin Dragon warns his host about the risk of reverting Ichigo back to normal. Yugi groans as he responds, certain that would be a problem. ''I had a feeling as much.''
He recalls the infected, robotized people in Karakura Town he couldn't revert back with Yin-Yang Dragon's ability. This is the similar case with Ichigo.
''Yugi-san, you need to weaken Ichigo-san to restore her back to normal with our power.'' Yang Dragon advises the tricolor head to fight Ichigo to save her. Yugi nods, not giving a choice but to fight her.
''That's the plan!'' He responds as he dashes at her rapidly. Ichigo responds and evades a palm strike as she swirls around and then performs a spin kick. Yugi uses Dragon Speed Burst to dash away backwards and stops as he swings his sword.
''DRAGON SLICE ATTACK!'' The young Dragon Knight shouts as he fires a golden energy slash from his sword at her. Ichigo stands there and smirks as she catches the energy slash. Yugi widens his eyes as she snaps the attack into pieces by simply clenching the hand she caught the attack.
''Is that all you have, feeble mortal?'' Ichigo taunts him smiling over confidently. She then leaps towards him and performs a diving kick. Yugi repels with the Dragon Spiral Slash and the two attacks clash. Sparks fly out between the energy drill slash and Ichigo's kick. Yugi is shocked that Ichigo's kick is able to clash with his attack and actual stomp kicks the drill attack into pieces. This shocks the tricolor head further as he moves away quickly.
''Ichigo-kun is much stronger than before.'' Yugi expresses horrified how much stronger she is than when not transformed. Shaking his head calmly, the young Dragon Knight can't give up yet as he clenches his left fist, engulfed in energy.
Yugi dashes forward as he shouts, about to swing a punch at Ichigo to make some kind of move. ''DRAGONAUN-''
Ichigo stands there and oddly smirks. Yugi glares, not going to stop as he swings his left punch forward but is startled as he can't move. He turns and his red dragon eyes widen to see thin threads wrapped around his arm.
''Threads?'' Yugi mutters but before he can try to cut the thread, more threads wrap around his other arm and even his legs. Yugi panics, lifted up as Evangeline has wrapped him up in threads, smirking evilly.
''Shame you're a boy.'' Evangeline taunts the tricolor head, looking at him and still disappointed he's not a girl. Such power he has would be going to waste unless by her control.
''I would love to have you under my control too.'' Evangeline expresses, giggling but she accepts the cards given to her. She soon says with a grin, licking her lips. ''Oh well. Drinking your blood will have to do.''
Yugi makes a pale face, worrying. He tried to move his limbs but couldn't break out.
''Nyan!'' Skitty cries out as she leaps at Evangeline with Fury Swipe but Ichigo intercepts and smacks the cat onto a tree, falling hard on the ground.
''Bad kitty.'' Ichigo tells the cat with a grin, wiping her hands. Yugi glares at her, knowing Ichigo would never do that to Skitty and calls her out. ''Ichigo-kun, snap out of it! Skitty just wants to save you!''
Ichigo looks at him and smirks as she calls him out. ''You'll make a tasty meal for mistress.''
Yugi stares at her, knowing this isn't Ichigo as she's still in there. He can feel her, not herself but her aura is still feeling warm.
''I know you're still in there!'' Yugi tries reaching out to her, looking at the girl he loves still in there. ''I can feel your aura. I know you're there because you're my Strawberry Kitten!''
As he says those words, the egg within his bag begins to shake and then glows. Ichigo looks at him and even though her red eyes show no kindness, her pupils twitch as did her hands. Evangeline sees that as Ichigo trembles more, hesitating to say something as a tear drops from her eye.
''Cute, she's reacting but…'' Evangeline expresses, amazed that someone under her power is trying to break free. Maybe true love? But it doesn't matter now.
''It's too late for that.'' Evangeline says as she floats towards Yugi, showing her fangs. The tricolor head freaks out heavily, uttering out. ''Not a fan of fangs!''
''Too bad~.'' The blonde little vampire expresses with sharp teeth, floating on his side and sees his neck. That stupid collar isn't going to protect him from her fangs. She leans towards his neck and prepares to bite down at him… until she notices a gleaming through his bag.
This gets her attention, leaning back, as she questions out loud. ''What's that glow?''
Yugi blinks, really confused by what she means. Soon the glow stops, making her suspicious. Evangeline floats towards his bag, questioning him. ''What is in this bag?''
The tricolor head then worries as it's his egg in his bag. Evangeline opens up the bag to see what's inside and looks down. It seems dark until a pair of red eyes shine from the bag to Evangeline's surprise.
''Riofu!'' A strange cry is heard before something shoots out from the bag, ripping it apart and smacks Evangeline across her face with an unseen punch, completely stunned by the attack. It sends her flying right into multiple trees.
''Mistress!'' Ichigo snaps out, still fully controlled as she comes at the figure but it vanishes so fast before smacking her into a boulder and it breaks. Skitty sees that and purrs in surprise. ''Nyan!''
Yugi stares speechless as the small figure lands in front of him. It's Riolu, a Pokémon. It is a small, blue, canine-like creature, a Pokémon. It has a black torso and legs, a blue tail, black dog-like ears that hang down from both sides of its head and a yellow collar. It has rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws. It has a black "mask" and red eyes. It stands on its toes instead of its entire foot.
''Riofu!'' The dog-like mon barks at Yugi who blinks with his normal purple eyes. He looks at the stranger who looks at him, almost drawn to him.
''Um hi!'' Yugi speaks up friendly-like though he's still tied up. He laughs nervously, telling the blue furred creature. ''Haha, kinda tangled.''
It looks at him and nods barking. ''Riofu!''
It extends its right arm back and thrusts it forward, blasting a burst of air that tears through the vires and freeing him. Yugi sighs, landing back on the ground, relieved to be freed. He eyes the dog mon looking at him and begins thanking him. ''Thank you…''
''Riofu!'' The mon barks with a small smile. Yugi understands him and nods, responding kindly. ''Riolu-kun. Right!''
''Riofu!'' The mon, Riolu, barks happily. Yugi smiles back as he approaches the mon and kneels down in front of him. He looks at the creature and smiles as he pets his head. Riolu blushes rather embarrassed with his arms crossed. Yugi chuckles, able to feel the mon's aura and understand him almost perfectly.
''You were the egg then!'' The tricolor head asks with Riolu barks smiling. ''Riofu!''
Yugi nods, now getting it. He nods standing up and turns to see Ichigo walking out from the tree she was kicked in. The young Dragon Knight then asks Riolu passionately. ''Yosh, then lead me your power to help someone special to me.''
Riolu looks at him and smiles, barking passionately. ''Riofu!''
Skitty watches with a blush across her face.
Ichigo growls and she comes at them and the two suddenly dash in front of her, Yugi reentering Yin-Yang Dragon mode, as he and Riolu kick her backwards. Ichigo grinds her boots onto the ground before dashing back at them but they dodge in sync around her punches, kicks or nail slashes.
Yugi is startled that he can communicate with Riolu through their connection of sensing aura, letting him understand what moves it currently possesses. Taking advantage, Yugi commands his new comrade. ''Let's go Riolu! Bullet Punch!''
Riolu barks as he dashes at Ichigo with an unseen barrage of punches that hit like metal, smacking the red cherry head backwards. She hisses, tanking the hits before coming at him with a hand thrust but Yugi shouts. ''Use Detect!''
Riolu sways his tiny arms and expertly deflects Ichigo's attack to her shock.
''Power-Up Punch!'' Yugi commands as Riolu extends back his right fist and delivers a powerful punch across her gut, slamming her into a tree.
''Blaze Kick!'' Yugi then orders as Riolu leaps up and descends rapidly towards her, extending his right leg as it's engulfed in flames. Ichigo quickly evades away as Riolu's kick hits right across the tree and creates a small explosion of flames.
Breathing angrily, the brainwashed Ichigo yells out irritated. ''Pesty dog!''
She comes at him until she's suddenly tail slapped by Skitty's Iron Tail attack.
''Nyan!'' Skitty cries out trying to snap her out. The tail slap pushes Ichigo backwards briefly but before she can do anything, Yugi appears in front of her with his left fist extended back.
''DRAGONAUN KNUCKLE!'' Y
ugi roars as he thrusts his fist across her stomach and connects. Ichigo gags up as Yugi immediately uses Yin-Yang Dragon's ability. Ichigo's eyes shake as the red eyes turn back to the normal brown eyes.
Ichigo falls backwards but Yugi swiftly catches her, bridal style. Still blinking confused, Ichigo mutters out dazed. ''W-what just… Nya?''
Smiling to see her react like her actual self, he sets her back on the ground.
''Ichigo-kun!'' Yugi says smiling. Ichigo groans, feeling so badly beaten for no reason. She looks at him and asks him. ''Yugi-kun?''
Yugi sighs of relief as he reaches and quickly heals the blow he delivered her with a single palm touch. Ichigo feels the healing and sighs, feeling relaxed.
Rubbing her head, Ichigo groans not recalling much but that little girl catching her.
''What hit-'' She begins to question until she feels… really exposed. She looks downward and she widens her eyes in horror.
''NYA?!'' Ichigo screams out awkwardly as her cat ears and tail stick out, freaking out heavily. ''W-W-W-WHAT AM I WEARING NYA?!''
Skitty sighs of relief that she's back to normal. Riolu sweat drops while Yugi blushes, now able to be turned on.
''It's really hot hehe.'' Yugi expresses happiness, causing Riolu to sweat drop heavily as does Skitty. Ichigo looks at him and groans before screaming out in panic, slapping him awkwardly like a cat. ''T-T-THIS ISN'T THE TIME TO EXPRESS YOUR PERVERTED NATURE NYA!''
''I-I CAN'T HELP IT!'' Yugi expresses loudly yet nervously, not meaning it. Ichigo still slaps him silly while Yugi sweat drops with a blushing face.
After a moment of awkwardness, the two put aside that and Ichigo tracks down her clothes by their scent, sighing with relief.
''So… you're keeping the outfit?'' Yugi then asks with a soft grin.
''…'' Silent as she searches through her belongings, Ichigo finds her pendant and begins chanting as she kisses it. ''Mew Mew Strawberry, Metamorphosis.''
Her body shines as Ichigo is wrapped in pink ribbons before they dissolve and she transforms into Mew Ichigo. She checks herself out and she lets out a sigh, very relieved she's wearing something… decent compared to what she was wearing.
''Sigh better.'' Mew Ichigo expresses with Skitty rubbing her boot playfully. She giggles, though, the cat girl feels oddly light-headed like she's low on energy or something. Yugi, however, sighs, saddened, wanting Ichigo to remain with that outfit on. It looks SO hot when she worn it.
''Aw, I hope you keep the-'' Yugi begins saying, wanting her to remain in that outfit but their words are cut off by a voice. ''Excuse me…''
The four blink rapidly and turn to see Evangeline emerging, brushing off dirt and bush leaves off her. That mutt really hit her harder than she hoped for.
''Clever surprise but now I'm mad.'' Evangeline proclaims, not going to let the boy get away with taking her servant. Yugi glares calmly as Mew Ichigo steps forward, really pissed off at what the woman did to her and won't let her get away with this.
''Don't worry Yugi-kun, I-'' The cat girl begins to say until at that moment the Mew Mew staggers, her vision becomes blurry. She finds herself standing on all fours, looking weakened and Yugi notices it of concern.
''I-I don't feel so well Nya.'' Mew Ichigo mutters out, feeling so drained.
Evangeline notices this too and smirks; kinda impressed she's still managing to hold on with low energy after she drained her.
''That's because you tasted so nice, Ichigo-chan.'' Evangeline reveals to her, showing her vampire fangs. Mew Ichigo sees them and immediately widens her eyes, screaming out of panic. ''SHE'S A VAMPIRE NYA?!''
Yugi nods softly as she is. Evangeline giggles as she asks them, eager to drain the cat girl again. ''Now what will you do.''
The tricolor head didn't need a minute to think as lifts up his Dragon Sword to his side, shining brightly. He soon utters out, seriously. ''Level Up.''
His Dragon Sword shines and transforms into the half-size claymore weapon, swinging it forward.
''Dragon Slayer!'' Yugi roars, holding his transformed sword with both hands. Evangeline hums rather impressed, reminding her of the Pactio Contract.
''Riolu-kun, keep Ichigo-kun safe please.'' Yugi asks the dog mon to protect Ichigo. Riolu nods barking. ''Riofu!''
Mew Ichigo blinks just realizing the dog and giggles as she hugs it affectionately.
''Cute doggy Nya~.'' She tries purring out happily. Riolu blushes red, trying to act strong.
Yugi smiles before he dashes at Evangeline and runs past her. Evangeline startles and now chases after him with unseen speed. The two clash away from the others with Evangeline most impressed by this ''power-up'' form of the Dragon Knight. She summons and unleashes her threads but Yugi slashes them with one swing.
Evangeline smirks as she calls him off. ''You're a lucky child but pointless!''
''I'm not lucky!'' Yugi, however, protests with a small smirk until he poofs into smoke. Evangeline widens her eyes as the real Yugi appears above her. ''I'm just good at misdirection!''
She panics, turning around as Yugi shouts and swings the Dragon Slayer downward. ''DRAGONAUN TENSHO!''
His blade unleashes a powerful blue energy slash, coming down upon the blonde haired vampire. Evangeline watches as the attack prepares to consume her but she isn't going to allow that, chanting out. ''Lic Lac La Lac Lilac!''
Immediately, a magical ice barrier manifests in front of Yugi's Dragonaun Tensho and blocks it head on. Yugi sees that as did Mew Ichigo, both uttering out loud. ''An ice barrier?''
The attack vanishes as did the barrier, revealing Evangeline untouched. She grins, revealing to the two. ''Did I mention I'm a mage too?''
Mew Ichigo groans, worrying more than ever. She's a vampire and a magician?! How is this fair?
''… Where's your rings?'' Yugi then asks her, almost dumbfounded, assuming she's a mage like Haruto.
''…'' With an upsetly, annoyed expression across her face, Evangeline raises his right hand forward. Yugi staggers, raising his blade forward to defend himself as she proclaims loudly. ''NIVIS CASUS!''
She unleashes a quick blast of snow that Yugi repels but pushes him into the sky. He breathes heavily with cold breaths, muttering out. ''Cold…''
Evangeline smirks, dashing at him but Yugi leaps upward while he's engulfed in a red aura. She still smirks as she starts chanting in Latin. ''Undetriginta spiritus obscuri. SAGITTA MAGICA, SERIES OBSCURI!''
Swirls of darkness begin to form around her and Atem can feel this attack is meant to kill, even stronger than Yugi's current form.
''Partner, Burst Limit!'' The Pharaoh advises Yugi loudly to go all out. Nodding, Yugi begins to chant with his sword guarding him.''Dragon of the Heavens…''
Evangeline immediately fires a series of dark magical arrows at Yugi who tries guarding with the Dragon Slayer, blocking them so far until more swirl around and come at his back. Yugi quickly dodges them, panting as the arrows still follow him like heat seeking missiles.
''Roar across the boundaries of reality and fantasy…'' Yugi still chants, using Yin-Yang Dash Mode to outspeed the arrows. Evangeline sees that and begins to chant. ''Convenite spirituum glaciem. Descendisset spears fieri ut pluet super inimicos meos!''
''And grant me the blade that creates impossibilities!'' Yugi then shouts, still out running the arrows before he shouts. ''BURST-''
''IACULATIO GRANDINIS!'' Evangeline, however, calls forth as a magical circle manifests over Yugi. The tricolor head senses it with staggering eyes, looking up as the shooting down from the circle are multiple packs of ice spears almost like ballistics. Yugi barely has time to react as he swings the glowing Dragon Slayer, slashing down the first few spears but not all of the ice spears and the magical arrows hitting him on all sides. Mew Ichigo watches in shock as the attacks create large smoke, still hitting where Yugi is in.
''Yugi-kun!'' Mew Ichigo screams in shock with Riolu and Skitty worrying.
As this is happening, a blue Unicorn Familiar that belongs to Haruto watches before running off to inform its master.
With Evangeline going all out, will the young Dragon Knight be able to stand a chance against her?
To be continued…

Thank you for another great episode. I thank those who are helping me get this story notice and enjoy it. For those who love it, please review my story and give me your opinions or thoughts to it.
Next Time…
At first happy that they defeated Zorc and defeated his Dark Conquest RPG, Yugi is thrown into another fight against a little girl who is said to be a Vampire and a Mage. With her dangerous ice magic and vampiric powers, can Yugi stand a chance?
Judai: Shame the party ended with Ichigo calling it.
Jonouchi: Meh, I'm tired.
Ed: Same.
Haruto doesn't say much as he hears a thing and walks away: Got a thing to do. See ya.
Ruby: Eh?
Alicia: I wonder if something happened?
Naruto: That would be weird.
Jonouchi sweat drops reading the title of the next chapter: Yea… Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: Freezing Magic Battle!
Usagi: Leave this to me! Please remember to read, enjoy and review. See you all next time… wait, there's another chapter?
Author's Note: Oh man Yugi already fighting Evangeline? People who might not know, my friend Redwallfan2000 already did this fight… twice, when he was doing Guardian Digimon but he's going to reboot it… eventually.
So the outfit Ichigo was dressed as is based on a commission I did in my DeviantArt Account, DragonKnight-15, called Evangeline's Servant Slaves 3 and 4. I won't put the links since… Fanfiction's dislike of other links that aren't Fanfiction ones but if you check it out, check them out in my Gallery in DA.

If anyone wants to ask who is the other girl… who do you think it is if he was a girl in another world, an AU hmm.
Also that mysterious egg is Riolu! YEA. I like the Lucario line and it suits Yugi being that he can sense aura (and Egyptian connecting to Atem). Heck, it would suit canon Yugi too if you think about it. What do you guys think?
Next time is truly the conclusion of this Volume's arc.
