Yu, & Jaden got ready for final showdown against Kagemaru who is using the three Sacred Beasts in his Deck against them.
(Dueling Theme: The Battle for Everyone's Souls)
Jaden & Yu: 4000
Kagemaru: 8000
Let the duel begin!
Kagemaru 1st Turn:
"I go first." Kagemaru said as his machine draws, "And for the first turn, I set three Trap Cards face-down."
Hearing that Chazz blinked, "Trap Cards, guess his circuits are outdated."
"Maybe, or maybe he's planning something." Zane pointed out.
"Indeed. When setting a card your not suppose to say what kind." Bastion agreed.
Kagemaru smirked, "Unless of course if your summoning a Sacred Beast. Unlike the Egyptian Gods they can't be normal summoned but by sacrificing three specific cards then they can use their power. So I sacrifice my three traps cards, Chain Burst, Jar of Greed, and Penalty Game to summon the first Sacred Beast! Uria, Lord of Searing Flames!"
At that the three traps burst to flames shooting behind him as a pillar of pure fire shot to the sky as the Persona Users instantly felt a powerful presence even Rise can without Kouzeon. As the flames appeared the shadows started getting agitated as the Persona Users cried out in pain.
"This is unreal, how can anything that strong exist?" Rise asked weakly. "It's as powerful as she was when we started fighting her."
The pain died as the flames died down revealing a red long serpentine demonic elder dragon who roared upon before summoning before looking down to it's opponents.

During the turn you Special Summoned this card by its effect, you cannot activate its other effects, and if you control another monster, this card cannot declare an attack.
Yu frowned seeing the monster. "Wait, zero attack points?"
"For every Trap Card in my graveyard my Sacred Beast gains 1000 each." Kagemaru explained to him.
Uria: (ATK: 0 + (1000 * 3) = 3000)
"At least you can't attack with that thing yet." Jaden pointed out.
"I know that. That is all this turn." Kagemaru finished it.
Yu 1st Turn:
Yu drew his card. 'I don't know what kind's of abilities that monster has, better safe than sorry.' "I activate the spell card Awakening!"
Awakening
Normal Spell Card
If you control no monsters: Special Summon 1 "Persona" monster from your hand. You can only activate one "Awakening" per duel.
As he played the card Yu began glowing blue.
"What's happening?" Bastion asked seeing that.
"Hey isn't that when...?" Chazz trailed off recognizing that Syrus got through the same aura.
"I summon Death Persona Alice!" Yu called.
Death Persona Alice

DEF: 1800
Once per duel while this card is face-up on the field you can destroy all other monsters on the field.
Alice appeared at this ready.
"Alice?" Yu asked with a smile.
She smiled. "Die for me!"
The Card Soldiers jumped out attacking Uria as it roared shattering as Kagemaru grunted.
"Alright, now that the path's open. Alice attack Kagemaru directly!" Yu called.
Alice charged striking Kagemaru as he grunted. (Kagemaru: 6100)
"Alright! We dealt damage, and got rid of that Sacred Beast!" Jaden grinned.
"Impressive. I see, I made the correct choice in selecting you two as my opponents Jaden Yuki, and Yu Narukami. Your powers will serve me well as I rip them from your bodies." Kagemaru smirked.
"That isn't going to happen, I set two cards and end my move." Yu finished.
Jaden & Yu: 4000
Kagemaru: 6100
Kagemaru 2nd Turn:
"And let's see how you handle this. I activate Uria's special ability! I discard 1 trap card, and then... Hahaha!" Kagemaru laughed evilly after drawing discarding a card as a pillar of fire appeared again where Uria stood before.
"Oh come on, it comes back?" Yosuke asked in shock before his eyes widened hearing noises behind him. "Oh crap!"
"Everyone who can't fight get behind us!" Naoto shouted. "Yamato Sumeraagi, Megidolaon!"
Her Persona appeared attacking the Shadows before Uria burst from the pillar roaring as Kagemaru explained, "As Lord of Searing Flames one of Uria's Special Abilities is that if it's ever destroyed at the price of not using it's other abilities this round by discarding a trap card, Uria automatically resurrects!"
"Plus with another trap in the graveyard it gets stronger." Yu frowned. "Sorry Jaden."
Uria: (ATK: 0 + (1000 * 4) = 4000)
"Hey it's fine at least we know it has that ability." Jaden assured him, "Besides the reason why I came to Duel Academy is to duel the best, and right now that's happening."
Hearing that Yu frowned. "That's right... this is why you came to Duel Academy, it's why we came here too."
"Hate to rain on your memory lane but I attack! Hyperblaze!" Kagemaru called as Uria fired a searing fire blast at Alice."I play Tetrakarn!" Yu countered.
Tetrakarn
Normal Trap Card
When an opposing monster declares an attack, destroy the attacking monster.
"Yeah that takes care of Uria!" Jaden grinned as the effects of the trap pushed through Uria's blast destroying it for a second time.
Yu nodded. "Yeah, but Jaden... you know we're leaving after this duel right?"
"Yeah, you mentioned that yesterday. It's been great knowing you, and your friends." Jaden grinned to him.
Yu nodded at that before turning to Kagemaru. "Anything else?"
"Nice trap you got. I end my turn." Kagemaru ended.
Jaden 1st Turn:
"Alright Test-Tuby! Ha!" Jaden called drawing looking over, "Yu, can I borrow Alice?"
"Go ahead Jaden." Yu nodded. "She's all yours."
"In that case, I activate Fusion Tag!" Jaden called.
Fusion Tag
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 monster you control; reveal 1 Fusion Monster in your Extra Deck, and if you do, the targeted monster's name can be treated as the revealed Fusion Monster's, if used for a Fusion Summon this turn.
"So now by revealing a Fusion Monster in my Extra Deck, Alice counts as one of monsters used to summon it until the end of this turn. And the card I'm revealing is, Elemental HERO Plasma Vice!"
At that a tag appeared for Alice to take. Alice took the tag.
"Takehaya Susano-o Magarudyne!" Yosuke called quickly.
"Right behind you Haraedo-no-Okami, Agneyastra!" Chie added.
The Shadows kept coming.
"Any chance you guys can pick up the pace?" Kanji questioned.
Suddenly a blast struck a Shadow down.
"What?" Teddie asked in shock.
They looked to see Zane's Cyber Dragon attacked it as he explained, "Jaden said before we can fight with our cards, and we said we would risk our lives to fight the Shadows."
To his shock the shadow he blasted quickly got back up before striking Cyber Dragon destroying it easily.
"Maybe under normal conditions, but these aren't normal Shadows." Naoto told him. "That Sacred Beast is doing something to them, you need to stay back."
"Then that means we need to use stronger creatures." Yuzu said summoning Relinquished, "Absorb one!"
Relinquished conjured a vortex to absorb a Shadow. The moment Relinquished absorbed the shadow it exploded destroying Relinquished.
"What?" Yuzu asked shocked.
"Cyber Blader get them!" Alexis called as Cyber Blader charged striking several Shadows expertly destroying them. Suddenly Cyber Blader vanished.
"What's happening? Our strongest monsters aren't doing anything?" Chazz asked seeing this.
"Maybe not Monsters but let's try this!" Bastion called activating a spell, "I call Lightning Vortex!"
When he looked at the card to his shock it was blank, "What the..."
At the Duel, Jaden then called, "And now I call on the power of Polymerization!"
Polymerization
Normal Spell Card
Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion Material.
"With it, I fuse Alice now treated as Sparkman with Clayman that's already in my hand to create the Elemental HERO Plasma Vice!" Jaden called as two fused only for Plasma Vice to appear.

"And now Plasma Vice attack Kagemaru directly!" Jaden called as Plasma Vice attacked Kagemaru as he grunted. (Kagemaru: 3300) "And I throw down two face-downs."
Jaden & Yu: 4000
Kagemaru: 3300
Kagemaru 3rd Turn:
"Ha, I call that move worthless. As long as I have Traps to discard my Sacred Beast will NEVER stay off the field!" Kagemaru called discarding a card as Uria appeared again roaring.
Uria: (ATK: 0 + (1000 * 5) = 5000)
"Maybe, but can you take the chance when we have three facedown cards?" Yu inquired.
"Just as soon, as I activate my Pot of Greed." Kagemaru said to him.
Pot of Greed
Normal Spell Card
Draw 2 Cards.
"And now I activate the field spell, Fallen Paradise!" Kagemaru called as they appeared in a dark wasteland.
Fallen Paradise
Field Spell Card
Once per turn, if a player controls a face-up "Uria, Lord of Searing Flames", "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" or "Raviel, Lord of Phantasms", they can draw 2 cards during their Main Phase 1.
With the spell's activation the shadows started charging towards the duel. As the wasteland appeared the Shadows started getting more aggressive and trying to reach the duelists.
"Rise, can you get in contact with Fuuka-san?" Yu asked her.
"Got it." Rise nodded focusing.
"Once every round if a player controls a Sacred Beast that player can draw 2 cards." Kagemaru said drawing two cards, "And that gives me enough to set three Spell Cards."
"That's not good." Jaden admitted.
"Rise-chan?" Fuuka's voice responded to Rise's call.
"Fuuka-san, it's bad." Rise told her. "The island is overrun with Shadows, and the Sacred Beasts are free!"
"I knew, I felt something overwhelming earlier. Me, and the Shadow Operatives are already on our way." Fuuka told her.
"Right." Rise nodded before breaking the communication just before a shadow jumped at her.
Syrus quickly stand guard against it.
"And by sacrificing Premature Burial, Monster Reincarnation, and Abyssal Designator, I can summon the second Sacred Beast!" Kagemaru called as ice shattered the spells building up behind Kagemaru as something burst through, "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder!"
At that what rose was a yellow skeletal demon roaring.
Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder

Thunder
ATK: 4000

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by sending 3 Spell Cards you control to the Graveyard.

While you control this face-up Defense Position card, other monsters you control cannot be selected as attack targets. If this Defense Position card is destroyed, you take no damage for the rest of this turn.
Jaden's eyes widened before he paused. "Wait, with that in play Uria can't attack."
"For this turn only." Kagemaru smirked.
Just then they noticed that their cards, and them are passing out yellow energy to them. All but Jaden's, and Yu's.
"W-What's going on?" Zane asked surprised.
"The Sacred Beast's power! They draw from the energy of Duel Spirits!" Kagemaru answered as the Sacred Beasts started glowing gold.
At the same time the Persona Users suddenly cried out in pain.
"Stop, you're killing them!" Alexis cried.
"It's a price to pay for ruling the world! Jaden, and Yu's cards aren't being effected as their dueling in their presence, and their power is beyond all of your's, and with their strength I can use the Sacred Beasts to rule the world! Observe!" Kagemaru called as his tube glowed as he called out only for the tube to shatter shooting water out.
"Change, Isis Salvation!" Yu cried as a new persona appeared and the other Persona users started glowing.
It all healed the Persona Users at this as they looked to see what jumped out was a now younger Kagemaru who is muscular having bandages on his waist for clothing, and having long black hair with two bangs over his shoulders chuckling.
"Gr... That's for show!" Jaden cried.
Kagemaru chuckled smirking grabbing the tube after putting on the Duel Disk, "Is this for show?"
At that he gave a holler throwing the tube out of the distance.
"Whoa... that's insane." Yosuke mentioned as Isis continued healing him and the other Persona Users.
Kagemaru laughed manically, "I like this body. But something's still missing... Oh wait I know! It's both your souls, Jaden, and Yu!"
He pointed to them both as he declared this.
"That won't happen." Yu told him weakly.
"Only with your power, can I take over this world." Kagemaru smirked, "Now Hamon attack! Cerulean Skyfire!"
"Let's find out. Now Hamon attack! Cerulean Skyfire!" Kagemaru called as Hamon charged an attack.
"Not so fast, go Hero Barrier!" Jaden called as the trap blocked Hamon's attack.
Hero Barrier
Normal Trap Card
Negate 1 attack from an opponent's monster. You must control a face-up "Elemental HERO" monster to resolve this effect.
"With this if we at least have one Elemental HERO on our field this cancels out one of your attacks!" Jaden called as the attack faded.
"Good move Jaden." Yu whispered.
"Tough luck." Kagemaru smirked, "That spared you for now but it won't help soon."
"Alright Yu it's your move." Jaden said turning to his partner.
Yu 2nd Turn:
Yu nodded before drawing as he winced and started breathing heavily. "I set this card facedown... and play a monster in defense mode. I end by switching Plasma Vice into defense mode too."
"Yu, you alright?" Jaden asked noticing his condition.
"I'll be fine." Yu answered as Jaden noticed Isis was still healing the other Persona Users.
Jaden & Yu: 4000
Kagemaru: 3300
Kagemaru 4th Turn:
"Huh face-downs, and defense? That's all you can do against the Sacred Beasts? Please don't insult them they will give me the strength to rule the world! Draw!" Kagemaru called drawing, "First off due to Fallen Paradise's effect, I can draw 2 cards!"
He drew two cards, "And now Uria! Trap Destruction!"
Uria roared to one of their face-downs.
Yu frowned as Compendium Fee shattered.
"Then Hamon attack! Cerulean Skyfire!" Kagemaru called as Hamon attacked at Plasma Vice.
"Trap card open!" Yu called. "Blue Wall!"
Blue Wall
Continuous Trap Card
Once per turn if a LIGHT monster declares an attack you can halve that monster's ATK in half until the end of the battle phase.
Hamon: (ATK: 4000 / 2 = 2000)
"What's this?" Kagemaru asked seeing this.
"Blue Wall cuts the attack points of a light monster in half when it battles." Yu told him before wincing as Isis faded slightly before continuing to heal everyone.
Plasma Vice retaliated against Hamon as Kagemaru grunted. (Kagemaru: 3000)
"Whatever! Uria Hyperblaze!" Kagemaru called as Uria fired a blast.
Jaden grunted at Plasma Vice shattered.
"You got lucky for now." Kagemaru said ending his turn.

You can only equip this card to "Elemental Hero Bubbleman". Increase the ATK of the equipped monster by 800 points. If the equipped monster would be destroyed as a result of battle, destroy this card instead, and make the Battle Damage to the controller of the equipped monster 0.
Neo Bubbleman armed the blaster. (ATK: 800 + 800 = 1600)
"And now Neo Bubbleman attack Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder!" Jaden called as Bubbleman fired a blast at Hamon.
"You fool! Hamon retaliate!" Kagemaru called as Hamon fired a counter attack making a beam struggle before unexpectedly Bubbleman's pushed through, and struck Hamon making an explosion as Kagemaru cried in shock, "Hamon!? He's been destroyed!""Neo Bubbleman's special ability destroys any monster that fights him." Jaden grinned.
Kagemaru grunted but reminded, "But Hamon is stronger so you still take damage!"
"Normally but when Bubbleman would get destroyed his blaster pops instead, and damage we take becomes zero." Jaden grinned as Bubble Blaster shattered. (ATK: 1600 - 800 = 800)
"Impressive, unfortunately that spell only protects Jaden one time and Uria still has 5000 attack points." Bastion pointed out.
"I'll throw down 2 face-downs. Your up Kagemaru." Jaden said ending his turn.

"Without those traps Uria is powerless." Yuzu realized.
"Those Slifer Sla..." Dr. Crowler started before shaking his head. "Those students are remarkable."
Uria: (ATK: 5000 - (1000 * 5) = 0)
With the traps gone Uria's fire blast vanished.
"And now Bubbleman cool him off!" Jaden called as Bubbleman aimed, and fired a water blast destroying Uria in a big explosion as Kagemaru braced him. (Kagemaru: 2200)
"You are only delaying the inevitable! You cannot stop the beasts!" Kagemaru yelled, "And it starts with the spell, Resurrection Tribute!"

"So now as a monster I have was destroyed from a fight, I can destroy 1 monster you control!" Kagemaru called as Bubbleman shattered as they grunted, "And then, I can summon 1 monster back from the graveyard in defense mode! Hamon rise again!"
At that what burst from his graveyard was Hamon roaring with 4000 defense points.
"And by discarding Mispolymerization from my hand Uria joins Hamon in revival!" Kagemaru called discarding a card.
At that Uria burst again roaring this time going in defense. (DEF: 0 + (1000 * 1) = 1000)
"They won't stay down!" Yuzu cried in shock.

With its appearance the Shadows started glowing.
"He's gathered all three of the beasts at once." Zane grunted as the Sacred Beasts, and Kagemaru himself starting glowing as he laughed.
At that Rise noticed from the distance a small aircraft was flying over.
"Yeah, but we have reinforcements." Rise smiled.
Hearing that they looked as it landed where what jumped out was the group they encountered from the Magician Shadow's attack.
"Whoa! Those things are big!" a blue capped man said in shock seeing the Sacred Beasts.
"Well well, the Kirijo Group." Kagemaru said seeing them, "So what brings you here?"
"I think you know." Mitsuru stated.
"Well unfortunately as tempting as it sounds the Sacred Beasts are not your fight it's there's." Kagemaru said turning to Yu, and Jaden.
"Well, and we will take you down!" Jaden told him, "Go ahead, and finish your turn!"
"Fine but it's not just my turn will be finished. It's you two as well soon!" Kagemaru declared letting Yu have a turn.
Yu 4th Turn:
Yu drew his card only to collapse to his hands and knees.
Jaden went to help him out.
"I can't... I pass." Yu frowned as Jaden realized it was taking most of his strength to keep healing the others.
"Yu, you need to take your turn." Jaden said to him.
"Yu... stop using Isis!" Yosuke yelled.
"Sorry Yosuke, not happening."
Suddenly a second Isis appeared.
"Isis, Mediarahan!" Aigis called as her body glowed as the Investigation Team, Yu included were in a aura.
At that Yu's eyes widened as his Persona faded. "Aigis, thank you."

"Then, I switch Uria from defense mode to attack mode." Kagemaru added as Uria switched roaring, "And now his ability! Trap Destruction!"
Uria charged a blast at Yu's face-down. The card shattered.
"And now Uria! Destroy that Persona! Hyperblaze!" Kagemaru called as Uria charged a blast at Izanagi.

"And now Raviel attack that face-down!" Kagemaru called as Raviel charged it's glowing claws at the face-down monster.

They all drew their cards. Among the cards he drawn Yu noticed one of them was the card Igor gave him, Inner Strength of True Self.
"That card is my gift but use it wisely. It will use nearly all the power you have gotten, and it can be used only once." Igor's words repeated in his head.
Yu looked at it before frowning. 'Only as a last resort.'
"Alright, and now I activate Polymerization!" Jaden called activating the card, "With it I fuse both Avian, and Burstinatrix to create the Elemental HERO Flame Wingman!"

Shining Flare Wingman: (ATK: 2500 + (300 * 7) = 4900)
"4900 attack points!?" Kagemaru asked in shock.
"Yep, and here's a little extra! When Flare Wingman destroys your monster in battle that monsters attack points is dealt to you!" Jaden revealed.
"That's enough to end the duel!" Alexis realized.
"But Hamon is your only target when in defense mode!" Kagemaru told him.
"That doesn't matter! Go Shining Flare Wingman attack!" Jaden called as Shining Flare Wingman attacked Hamon destroying it as Kagemaru cried out, "And now Wingman! Light up his world!"
Shining Flare Wingman flew in front of Kagemaru, and started to glow brightly only for the pieces of Hamon to fly in front of Kagemaru acting a barrier.
"What?" Yu questioned.

"So now I can fuse monsters from my hand, or graveyard to summon a Fusion Monster!" Jaden told them, "So I banish Bubbleman, Clayman, Burstinatrix, and Avian! To form the Elemental HERO Electrum in defense mode!"
At that a golden hero with a E on it's chest appeared.
Elemental HERO Electrum
Light Type
Level 10
Warrior/Fusion
ATK: 2900
DEF: 2600
"Elemental HERO Avian" + "Elemental HERO Burstinatrix" + "Elemental HERO Clayman" + "Elemental HERO Bubbleman"
Must be Fusion Summoned and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. While face-up on the field, this card is also WIND, WATER, FIRE, and EARTH-Attribute. When this card is Fusion Summoned: Shuffle all banished cards into the Deck(s). This card gains 300 ATK for each monster your opponent controls that shares an Attribute with this card.
"When summoned all cards removed from the game returns to the deck." Jaden said shuffling his deck, "And Electrum gains 300 points for each attribute it shares with your monsters. So far Uria is the only one as Electrum's attribute is also Wind, Water, Fire, and Earth!"
Electrum: (ATK: 2900 + 300 = 3200)
Shining Flare Wingman: (ATK: 4900 - (300 * 3) = 4000)
"Alright Yu this is all the defense I can muster." Jaden told him switching Izanagi to defense mode.
'Hopefully it's enough.' Yu thought.
"Your move!"
Jaden & Yu: 2300
Kagemaru: 2200
Kagemaru 7th Turn:
"And now one step closer to my reign is at hand!" Kagemaru called drawing, "First Fallen Paradise's effect!"
He drew two cards, "And now I activate Raviel's ability! By sacrificing two of my tokens, Raviel gains their points!"
Two tokens vanished as Raviel powered up. (ATK: 4000 + (1000 * 2) = 6000)
"6000 points!" Syrus cried in shock.
"And now Raviel attack Shining Flare Wingman with Shimmering Scrapper!" Kagemaru called as Raviel struck it's claws at Shining Flare Wingman destroying it as both Jaden, and Yu cried out, (Jaden & Yu: 0300) "And now Uria attack Izanagi again!"
Uria fired a blast at Izanagi destroying it. Yu cried out in pain.
"Your field only has Electrum. Accept defeat!" Kagemaru smirked.
"Alright Yu it all comes down to you." Jaden said turning to Yu helping him up as Aigis healed him, "And hopefully you got something to finish them off."
Yu 4th Turn:
Yu drew his card and paused. 'I can't summon this one.'
That was when he noticed a second Compendium Fee in his hand.
"Jaden... do you trust me?" Yu asked. "If he stops me, it's over."
"Why wouldn't I? Go ahead Yu!" Jaden grinned.
Yu nodded. "I switch Electrum to attack mode, and use my Compendium Fee to summon Lovers Persona Undine!"
Lovers Persona Undine
Water Type
Level 5
Aqua
ATK: 1800
DEF: 1500
If your opponent controls a Set Spell/Trap Card you can Normal Summon this card without tributing.
Compendium Fee
Normal Spell Card
Pay half your life points; Special Summon one "Persona" monster from your hand ignoring summoning conditions. You can banish this card from your graveyard and pay half your life points, summon one "Persona" monster from your deck but shuffle it into the deck during the end phase.
(Jaden & Yu: 0150)
"I get a Token!" Kagemaru reminded as a Token appeared again.
'Ok... here goes nothing.' Yu thought. "I play Inner Strength of True Self!"
Inner Strength of True Self
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 "Persona" monster you control, and 1 other Fusion Monster you control: Double the ATK of the selected monsters until the end of the Damage Step, and if you do then if those monsters battle against an opponent's Effect Monster, your opponent cannot activate Spell/Trap Cards until the End of the Damage Step also inflict damage to your opponent equal to the level of the first target x 200. You can only activate 1 "Inner Strength of True Self" per duel.
At that the spell glowed on them powering them, and making them grow.
Electrum: (ATK: 3100 x 2 = 6200)
Undine: (ATK: 1800 x 2 = 3600)
"What the!?" Kagemaru asked in shock with Jaden looking amazed.
"It doubles the points of one Persona and one Fusion Monster." Yu stated. "Undine attack the token."
Undine charged as Kagemaru was struck suddenly. (Kagemaru: 1200) The token was then destroyed.
Electrum charged in, and punched a hole in Raviel as Kagemaru watched in shock as Raviel let out a big explosion as he screamed.
Jaden & Yu: 0150
Kagemaru: 0000
Jaden & Yu wins the duel!
"Impossible! The Sacred Beasts can't be defeated!" Kagemaru yelled knelling, "Noooo!"
Uria decayed away upon the Duel's end as energy that was built in Kagemaru escaped him, and returned to their cards.
"Then... is it over?" Yosuke asked.
Sensing the Sacred Beasts were defeated, and Fallen Paradise vanished all the Shadows in the area make a hasty retreat from the battle.
"I think so." Chie admitted.
Then they noticed Kagemaru was now back to his elder form breathing looking up at them, "Yes... You see my real self now... An Old Man... A decrypted old man... Desiring for what you ask, what any old man wants! To be young again! The power of the Sacred Beasts was the only way how."
"You went to far." Yu told him before walking to take the Sacred Beasts.
Jaden took his shoulder before walking over to Kagemaru before the man asked, "Can't you forgive a decrypted old soul for delusions?"
"Of course." Jaden smiled to him, "But stealing power isn't the way to feel alive. You gotta find the strength in yourself."
"I can't... It's too late." Kagemaru said to him.
Jaden encouraged, "It's never too late. Come on try, and get up right now. Just go for it, give it your all!"
With that Kagemaru took Jaden's shoulder standing up slowly as Jaden tried to assist him when it looked like he's gonna fall before Kagemaru notices he's standing up before saying, "Hey look... I'm standing! It must've been our duel yes that's it! All the excitement put the spring in my spine!"
"Ha that's it!" Jaden said enveloping him in a hug before Yu noticed it was a bear hug.
Yu chuckled as he picked up the cards. "Mitsuru-San, should we destroy these?"
Mitsuru walked over seeing them, "So these were what Yamagishi-kun sensed. Their dangerous if they can attract that amount of Shadows. But destroying them might not be possible."
"They're cards, just tear them in half." Kanji pointed out.
"She's right. The Sacred Beasts can't be destroyed by normal means." Sheppard told him walking over, "I was foolish but now I aim to resolve this conflict. For now on the Sacred Beasts will be on my guard, and mine alone!"
"Don't take this the wrong way, but you're hardly qualified for keeping them safe. The entire Island is at risk as long as they remain here." Naoto pointed out.
Mitsuru stared at the Sacred Beast cards before saying, "Unless guardians need to be in place."
"Mitsuru-san... are you suggesting..." Yu started in shock.
Mitsuru nodded with a smile, "You, and your friends are welcome to stay on Academy Island with the Sacred Beasts under your watch."
Teddie's eyes widened before he grinned. "I need to tell Jazzy-chan!"
Yu smiled. "I guess we will have that rematch after all Jaden."
"Also, I had scheduled your Base of Operations." Mitsuru told him.
"You're always prepared." Yu chuckled.
"This 'Abandoned Dorm' on note of both Kaibacorp, and the Kirijo Group will be restored, and be the Investigation Team's Base for Shadow Activity, and guard the Sacred Beasts at all cost." Mitsuru announced to everyone, "And the Kirijo Group will also place safe guards on it in case of anything that happens that caused the students to vanish which might've been result of Shadow Activity, and now be a safe place to go too."
"Well, that settles that." Yukiko smiled before pausing. "Oh... isn't graduation in just a few days? Would you all like to stay until then?"
"Actually yeah. I had been wanting to know what this island is about here." a brown haired teenager smiled with a gray haired big dog beside looking around.
"Yeah this is gonna be a great time." the capped man grinned clenching his fist.
"And just in time for the Promotion Exams." Dr. Crowler added much to Jaden's chagrin.
Ulrich362: Well, the Sacred Beasts have been stopped... temporarily at least.
bopdog111: And the horrors of the Abandoned Dorm has ended for a long time.
Ulrich362: Yup, and with Mitsuru's decision the Investigation Team will be staying at Academy Island for a bit longer.
bopdog111: And all that's left here are Graduation Exams, and of course Chumley's offer to join Industrial Illusions.
Ulrich362: Yup, and after that a two or three chapter mini-arc you can look forward to. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
