Okay here are the questions.
Question 1 from alwynonlinereading:
Dan l. If you confront Zarc... do you think you can defeat him and seal him in you?
Dan: I'm not sure. I am helping him change back to normal.
Part 3 of the match is FINALLY underway! Sorry that took longer then I thought, but I finally got a new keyboard thanks to the combined efforts of both my Uncle, and Grandmother on my father's side! It took a while to get used too but I'm finally back, and now ready to continue this match! Dan, and Sergey had hit a tide of events since Dan defeated both Ccapac Apu, and Uru avoiding both their effects to get around Spirit Barrier or taking Dan's cards. But Dan's not done yet, and the remaining Immortals are ready to continue on. Let's see.
Summary: In a incredible turn of events Dan had turn the tide in his favor by managing to defeat Uru the second Earthbound Immortal, Sergey still under Roget's Influence had summoned in the match, and is ready to battle more to free his friend from the madman's control. But with each Earthbound Immortal, Sergey summons the more tougher the battle will become, but Dan isn't giving up by using the power of the Duel Dragons against them. Roget meanwhile grows increasingly frustrated with Dan's persistence, and is more then prepared to take things personally if needed. Can Dan stop the monsters' rampage?

Previously on Ascension of the Dragons:
"And now initiating main procedure of Harmonic Synchro Fusion!" Sergey called activating the hybrid Spell Card, "These two Earthbound Prisoners will assimilate into one!"
"Synchro Summon! Come forth! Level 6! Earthbound Servant Geo Gremlin!"
"Fusion Summon! Come forth! Level 6! Earthbound Servant Geo Gremlina!"
The two appeared as Geo Gremlin turned around which Sergey explained, "Geo Gremlin's ability activates! During main phase 1 of turn an Earthbound is summoned from Extra Deck, you make choice of wither or not to destroy Hot Red Dragon Archfiend!"
"There was never a choice." Dan said to the man before declaring to the man, "My Dragons are always holding my back, and I hold their backs as well! I won't toss them away for my benefits that's not what I am Sergey! I use my monsters like friends, and always use what they can do to help me out! So there was never a choice for me to decide!"
"That sounds like..." Akiza trailed off hearing that.
Yusei narrowed his eyes, "Jack."
"Fiddle-sticks!" Roget cursed with narrowed eyes, "Oh well, not a total loss. Sergey can still deal damage through other ways."
"Fusion Summon! Come forth! Level 10! Earthbound Servant Geo Grasha!"
Geo Grasha emerged from the portal roaring against Dan as he called, "Hot Red Dragon Archfiend finish those two off! Crimson Fire Burning!"
His Dragon attacked both Earthbounds destroying them both as Sergey grunted only for him to call, "Once per turn, if an Earthbound monster besides an Earthbound Immortal is destroyed, I can summon 1 Earthbound Immortal! Come forth! Level 10! Earthbound Immortal Uru!"
Uru burst from the ground screeching.
"Synchro Summon! Level 9, Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Abyss!"
Abyss appeared roaring as it weakened Uru destroying it as Roget yelled in his office, "You brainless buffoon! Fix this!"
"And Dan pulled a miraculous turnaround!" Melissa Trail announced, "Can Dan take down Sergey!?"
They watched as they speed down with five silhouettes staring down at Dan.
(Cue Theme: Hyper Drive)
Going fast makes me feel alive.
My heart beats in hyper drive.
Do you think you can win?
Only if I lose.
Just let destiny choose.
[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.
Take a shot at me runnin' side by side.
It's a blur... as I go by.
[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.
See the sun arising.
Fire in the sky.
Greatness thrusts itself into our lives.

"Alright Dan great attack!" Yuya cheered with the Lancers at the huge attack Dan had managed to dealt against Sergey.
"Yeah now that's the Dan we know!" Kit grinned.
Riley noticing Declan looking serious asked him, "Declan?"
"It's too early to start celebrating." Declan mentioned as they turned to him which he explained, "Dan only defeated two of the seven monsters he has to clear out to free Nick. If he isn't careful Sergey would crush him."
Hearing that they turned back knowing Declan is right. There are seven Earthbound Immortals, and so far Dan had only defeated two of them. So the bad news is that Sergey still has 5 of them to use, and if Dan's overwhelmed then it's game over for them. They hope that Dan can keep this up.
Sergey starting off his new turn called, "My turn, draw!"
He drew looking before saying, "And now I activate Longings' effect! If there are no Earthbound Immortals on my field, I can banish Earthbound monsters from my graveyard as Tributes to summon an Earthbound Immortal!"
"Say what?" Dan asked in shock as they looked while Sergey raised a card up.
"Deity from the Ancient Earth be revived after so long deep in the underground! Gather energy from the power of the spirits! Come forth! Level 10! Earthbound Immortal Cusillu!" Sergey chanted as from Geo Gremlina, and Geo Gremlin's banishment came a huge yellow lined monkey roaring as Dan grunted.

"I place 1 card down, and end my turn." Sergey ended his turn.
"And Sergey managed to build a defense against Dan!" Melissa Trail called seeing that, "Though since Dan's dragon can negate abilities then it's pretty much useless!"
Dan 3rd Turn:
'It's not gonna be that easy though.' Dan thought before drawing looking to see it's Pot of Avarice, 'Can't use it now but still go thing.' "Alright Abyss' ability activates!"
Abyss negates Cusillu's abilities at that as it moaned in agony from it's abilities stolen as Sergey grunted. Dan at that called, "And now Abyss attack Cusillu!"
Abyss charged in at it which Sergey calls, "I activate, Destruct Potion!"
Destruct Potion

Sergey called before chanting, "Deity from the Ancient Earth be revived after so long deep in the underground! Let this very Earth hear your roar! Come forth! Level 10!

"Chacu Challhua!" Dan cried grunting seeing it.
"He destroyed his Immortal to summon another one?" Yuya asked blinking.
"It both saved Sergey from defeat, and summoned an Immortal who's abilities were negated." Yusei explained to him, "It's one less Immortal but a dangerous one came in."
"What's dangerous about this when it's in defense mode?" Sylvio asked him.
Crow answered, "I've battled Chacu Challhua personally, and it's no joker. While in defense, Dan can't attack, and that it inflicts half it's defense points to Dan as damage."
That shocked them turning back as Dan grunted, "I end my turn."
Dan: 1000
Sergey: 3100
Sergey 4th Turn:
"My draw!" Sergey called drawing, "And now Geo Gryphon's ability protects Chacu Challhua from being effected by card effects this turn!"
"Say what!?" Yuya asked in shock, "Then Abyss' effect won't work!"
Knowing he has to get an Action Card tries to get passed only for Sergey to continue blocking him as Sergey called, "Chachu Challhua! Finish this!"
The killer whale attacked Dan as he tried only for a ray of light to shine as he widen his eyes seeing an opening before diving in grabbing an Action Card shocking everyone as Sergey yelled, "Impossible!"
"Activate Detour!" Dan called.
Detour

Negate the effect of 1 monster your opponent controls, and if you do, inflict 500 damage to your opponent.
"It negates Chacu Challhua's ability, and you take 500 points of damage!" Dan called as the blast stopping striking Sergey instead grunting. (Sergey: 2600)
"Dan... got passed him!" Yuya said in shock.
At Roget's Office...
"Impossible! No-one could match Sergey's speed the way he is now!" Roget protested seeing this, "No-one!"
Back at the Duel...
"Oh, and Dan had finally gotten the front lead, and is now pulling ahead of Sergey against his mega monsters!" Melissa Trail called seeing this.
Sergey grunted before saying, "In that case, I sacrifice both my Earthbounds to summon another monsters!"
The two vanished as Sergey called, "Deity from the Ancient Earth be revived after so long deep in the underground! Flap your wings of destruction through this Earth! Come forth! Level 10! Earthbound Immortal Aslla Piscu!"

"I activate Mirror Barrier on Abyss!" Dan called as Abyss gained a barrier.
Mirror Barrier
Action Spell Card
Target 1 monster on the field; it cannot be destroyed by card effects.
With that in place Aslla Piscu was destroyed by Darkrage as Sergey grunted. (Sergey: 2300) "Aslla Piscu's ability activates! All monsters on your field are destroyed, and you lose 800 points!"
"Thanks to Mirror Barrier on Abyss, I can bypass that!" Dan reminded as Darkrage shattered as he grunted. (Dan: 0200)
"Dan!" Riley cried seeing that Dan is on his last few life points.
"It's okay. Sergey left himself open, and Abyss is still here." Quattro told her assuring her.
"No it isn't that easy." Shay told him.
Sergey said to Dan, "By shuffling Earthbound Fusion back to my Deck, I draw!"

"So now all monsters that aren't the highest level are banished!" Dan called a meteor shower struck the field but Geo Gremlina survived, "Huh?"
"By banishing Ground Keeper my monster is protected from leaving the field!" Sergey called as they rode off.
Dan grunted, "Then attack, Abyss!"

Sorry that this seemed a bit rushed everyone, admittedly not a great way to start my comeback but I promise I will make up for it! And I think next chapter should be that time to where we see what Sergey has planned even if all seven of the Earthbound Immortals are defeated. Be sure to review!
