bopdog111: Well Jaden laid down a huge plot twist.
Ulrich362: Definitely, one I honestly wasn't expecting at all.
bopdog111: The Gentle Darkness or as it's really called the Darkness of Justice, and the Light of Destruction together are connected to the Shadows, and Personas themselves with him, and Yubel both using the power of the Twilight of Virtue. That will be later cause Marcel, and Blair both have their own battle to fight.
Ulrich362: True, but can they manage to win? Even with their allies?
bopdog111: Let's find out.
Ulrich362: Agreed, enjoy the chapter.

Earlier...
Marcel, and Blair were together in the void after being sent back, and Marcel turned to Blair asking her, "You sure you want to do this?"
"I'm sure." she nodded.
With that they waited for Yu. Soon they hear footsteps heading to them. While tensing Marcel told Blair, "Remember, we have to hold him back, or win until the others free Jaden."
"I know." she whispered back.
Yu stopped in front of them as he narrowed his eyes, "I defeated you before Blair. I'll do it again."
She flinched at that. "Things are different this time."
"And your against Exodia." Marcel added with a confident stare, "You'll be against me, and her this time."
"That so? It won't be a problem." Yu said at that readying his Duel Disk.
"DUEL!" the three of them called together.

"I can use the effect of Mystic Magician to discard a card and negate your trap!" Blair countered discarding one of her cards. "And since you already sacrificed Dark Grepher I can attack you directly!"

"When did that go to your graveyard?" Blair asked in shock.
"It's one of the cards I sent with Dark Grepher's ability." Yu explained.
"I then use it's ability." He sent a card, "By sending a Dark monster from my hand to the graveyard, all your monsters are destroyed. Darkness Surge!"
Zerato flew up firing darkness blasts from his wings. Blair's eyes widened as her monster shattered. "Mystic Magician's ability activates, when you destroy him I can summon Mystic Baby Magician from my hand, deck, or graveyard and then we all banish a card in our Extra Deck."
Mystic Baby Magician: (Defense Position)
Only a card from Marcel's Deck vanished.
"Sorry Marcel." Blair apologized seeing that.
"It's okay." Marcel said before saying, "Eitherway, I have an effect too."
At that what rose was a small machine that has a fan for a body, and face with fan propellers as fingers.
"What is that?" Yu questioned.
"When Vortex Trooper is destroyed, I draw 1 card." Marcel explained drawing.
Yu shrugged, "So be it but that's only an effect, not an attack. Darklord Zerato attack Marcel directly!" Zerato charged in at Marcel who braced himself before being slashed down as he knelled. (Marcel: 1200/Hand: 6)
"Marcel!" Blair cried seeing that.
"I'm... I'm okay." he assured slowly standing up painfully.
Zerato land behind Yu who said, "Not for long. I place down 2 cards."
He sets the cards before saying, "Since Zerato used it's effect, it's destroyed." Zerato shattered.

"My... turn!" Marcel drew looking.
Seeing what he drawn Marcel said to Yu, "Alright Yu... Here's something you haven't seen. A close approximation of The Legendary Exodia Incarnate but much more stronger."
He looked at Marcel curiously hearing that.
"I remove all the monsters in my graveyard, and shuffle." Marcel takes Vortex Trooper shuffling it before revealing the card, "To summon, Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord!"

If this face-up card would leave the field, banish it instead. If there are 5 different "Forbidden One" cards in your Graveyard that were sent there by this card's effect, you win the Duel.
Blair's eyes widened seeing the monster.
"Determined?"

Marcel only grinned, "Not for long. I activate Twin Twister!"

Blair's eyes widened in horror. "I've heard of that card, it's really dangerous!"
"What's it do?" Marcel asked confused.
"It let's him summon any monster he wants." Blair answered nervously.

"Now when Exodius attacks I can send another Normal Monster from my Deck to the graveyard. And finally if all five of the pieces of Exodia are sent to the graveyard by this effect, I win." Marcel revealed the other effects.
"That's 3000." Blair realized.
"Go Exodius attack Dark Nephthys!"
After sending the card the left arm of Exodius bulged a bit. (ATK: 2000 + 1000 = 3000) Exodius charged forward punching Dark Nephthys destroying it while Yu braced. (Yu: 4000/Hand: 0) "Mathematician your turn!"
Mathematician fired a blast which Yu defended with a shield. (Yu: 2500/Hand: 0)

"Wait, defense position?" Marcel asked seeing that.
"I use it's ability." Yu said to them, "By banishing 1 DARK monster from the graveyard, I can summon another one from my graveyard."
Blair's eyes widened nervously hearing that.
"I banish Dark Grepher, to summon back the second card it sent." Yu said taking a card.

Blair's eyes widened seeing the monster.
Marcel grunted at this before Yu called, "Now Dark Horus, attack Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord!" The dragon charged an attack before firing.

"Blair!" Marcel ran to her kneeling beside her horrified.
She was shaking and seemed badly hurt. "A... are you... ok?"
"I should be asking you that." Marcel said concerned.
Dark Horus growled noticing the counter on it's chest.
Dark Horus: (Maiden Counter: 1)
Maiden in Love slowly stood up painfully.
"Anything else?" Blair asked Yu weakly.
Yu frowned before setting a card.
Yu's Hand: 0/Field: The Dark Creator (Defense Position), Dark Horus (Attack Position), One Set Card

His Erebus card rose up roaring loud beside Exodius.

When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: You can reveal any number of "Forbidden One" monsters in your hand, and if you do, draw 1 card for each.
Yu looked at the monster calmly.
"For every Forbidden One in my graveyard it gains 1000 attack points. And with a Normal Monster in the graveyard Exodius gains 1000 more attack points!"
The two glowed getting stronger.
Legendary Exodia: (ATK: 0 + (1000 * 2) = 2000)
Exodius: (ATK: 3000 + 1000 = 4000)
"So now Exodius is the most powerful monster on the field." Yu frowned.
"And it's only gonna keep being stronger!" Marcel said sending a card while Exodius' arm bulged larger.
Exodius: (ATK: 4000 + 1000 = 5000)
Legendary Exodia: (ATK: 2000 + 1000 = 3000)

"Not bad but it's not good enough cause-" Yu started.
"I activate the trap, Final Charge!" Marcel activated.

"If my monster destroys your monster in battle this trap activates! First all monsters go to attack mode!"
Mystic Baby Magician, and the Dark Creator stood up.
Mystic Baby Magician: (Attack Position)
The Dark Creator: (Attack Position)
"Then we all pick a monster on our fields." Marcel told Yu, "Whoever we pick, will then battle each other!"
Yu's eyes widened hearing that.
"I pick the Legendary Exodia Incarnate!" Marcel made his choice as said monster got ready to attack. He turned over to his girlfriend asking, "Blair? Who's your choice?" With Maiden in Love not being destroyed, and Blair not able to take damage will be a good choice but with her being a Persona, Blair would feel every ounce of pain so there is only 1 choice for her.
"I... pick Mystic Baby Magician." Blair answered weakly.
The Egg creature cawed as it charged.
"And your choice is the Dark Creator!"
The Dark Creator charged a darkness orb in it's hands before Marcel called, "Final Charge when my life points are lower then 1000 prevents you from using anything during this battle!" Exodia charges a last orb before he called, "Exodia, OBLITERATE!"
Exodia attacked the field destroying Baby Magician, and Dark Creator as the blast charged at Yu who looked in shock before being struck flying back with his armor damaged.
