Aurasoul: Hey everyone! Welcome to Yugioh Zexal.

Darka: So what is this rumor about?

Aurasoul: Well Mike should know what it is he got to see a sneak preview on it.

Manami: Oh! I know what you mean now!

Aurasoul: See we got someone who remembers so disclaimer.

Yuma: I'll go! Aurasoul doesn't own Zexal only her characters while she shares Lyra-chan with Durbe the Barian who owns Sirius and Antares and Shane belongs to Shane Kor.

Aurasoul: Thank you Yuma so enjoy!

Chapter 4

A shadowed figure walked in the woods going in a hidden cottage soft hissing heard around as the figure sighed with sadness. "Mother".

It was lunch time at the academy Darka, Koru, and Harumi sighing as they ate. "What's wrong with you guys"? Yuma asked.
"Yeah you look all depressed", Tetsu remarked.

"Not really depressed see our teacher just gave us a reminder about graduation", Koru said.

"Oh yeah keep forgetting that when it comes to our group here you three are the oldest", Rio said.

"Yeah well our teacher told us about graduation and about how we need to think on what we'll do after that but with being busy with the Barians and Numbers", Darka said.

"We really never gave much thought about it", Harumi sighed.

"Don't worry something will come to you guys", Antares smiled.

"Yeah so don't worry", Yuma grinned.

The three smiled at their friends as Tokunosuke spoke up. "By the way guys have you all heard about the story thats been going around"? He asked.

"Rumor"? Lyra asked curiously.

"You mean of the Maiden of Snakes"?Takashi asked causing Manami to pale slightly.

"That's right", Tokunosuke nodded.

"Maiden of Snakes"? Sirius questioned.

"Yeah it's said that up at the mountains there's this girl who lives there but no ones ever saw her but you can tell she's near when you hear the hissing of snakes and when people try to see her they somehow pass out and find themselves at the Duel Sanctuary", Tokunosuke explained.

"Now that's a weird story", Koru remarked.

"Y-you don't think its true do you"? Manami asked nervously.

"Hmm... Lets find out", Darka suggested.

"Huh"?! The others said surprised.

"Yeah after school lets go find that snake girl", Yuma grinned.

"I better call Shane to meet up with us there", Darka said.

"Yeah lets go for it", Antares grinned

"Guess it cant be helped", Sirius sighed.

Manami only paled more.

"Mana are you ok"?

After school the group had all walked to the Duel Sanctuary Manami clutching Shark's hand tightly paling Shark worried.

"Y-yeah I'm fine", she said.

"Manami you couldve stayed home", Darka said.

"No like I said its ok", Manami said.

Darka sighed as the others looked confused. "Uh is there something we're not getting at"? Kotori askes.

"Only the fact that Manami hates snakes".

They all jumped and looked to see Hotaru there standing in front of the Duel Sanctuary with Rokujuro and Yamikawa. "Hotaru?

Wait you're afraid of snakes Manami"?! Yuma said shocked.

Manami only paled and nodded. "Wait Hotaru why are you here"? Darka asked surprised.

"When you called and told me about finding this 'Maiden of Snakes' I decided to come here first and talk with Roku-sama and Kaze about this I've been hearing about the story myself from my coworkers", Hotaru explained.

"Wait you know about the Maiden of Snakes, Rokujuro-sama"? Manami asked.

"Yes but not much I've only seen a few glimpses of her and her snakes", Rokujuro said.

Manami paled again her face almost paper white. "I think it might be best if we let Manami stay here while we search for the maiden", Hotaru said.

"But"! Manami began.

"No Mana you should stay here I'll stay with you", Shark said.

"Me too so you don't have to worry", Rio smiled.

Manami frowned yet nodded.

"Well then lets get going"! Yuma said running off.

"Yuma wait"! Darka yelled exasperated.

"Watch him brother"! Astrana called out.

Yuma ran off with a grin. "Yuma perhaps we should've waited until we made a plan", Astral said.

"What you mean? We're all just going to look for her that's all", Yuma said.

"Perhaps but"-

Then they heard soft singing they grew wide eyed in surprise. "What's that"? Yuma said surprised.

"We should follow it", Astral said.

"Yeah", Yuma agreed.

They began following the singing until reaching a grotto growing wide eyed and quickly hid to see a 13 year old girl with long very light blond hair that looked white with chestnut brown highlights, rose pink eyes that were specked with green, pale skin, she wore a pale violet and ruby red dress with a brown stachel as she was sitting singing softly. "Wow", Yuma said awed.

"Indeed but who is she"? Astral questioned.

"I don't know I never seen her before", Yuma said.

Then the girl gasped quickly turning. "Who's there?! Show yourself"! She said.

Yuma jumped slowly walking forward with a sheepish smile as the girl gasped. "Sorry I didnt mean to spy on you I just heard you singing", Yuma began.

The girl gasped her face getting red from embarrassment. "You don't have to be embarrassed! You sang great"! Yuma said quickly.

The girl looked at Yuma surprised. "R-really"? She asked softly.

"Yeah really", Yuma said with a smile.

She looked at him and slightly bowed. "Thank you", she said softly.

"No problem hey my name is Yuma Tsukumo. What's youre name"? Yuma asked.

The girl grew wide eyed as she faintly blush. "E-Elizabeth", she said softly.

"Elizabeth hmm mind if I call you Lizzie for short"? Yuma asked with a smile.

Elizabeth grew wide eyed and quickly nodded. "Uh yeah sure", she said relaxing sitting.

"Um mind me sitting sitting next to you"? Yuma asked.

Elizabeth blushed quickly hiding her face and nodded. "S-sure", she said with a stutter.

Yuma grinned as he sat next to Elizabeth, Astral looking at her curiously. "So do you come here often"? Yuma asked.

"You can say that", she muttered.

"Then you heard of the um snake uh", Yuma said thinking.

"Maiden of Snakes, Yuma", Astral sighed.

"Oh right! Have you heard of the Maiden of Snakes"? Yuma asked Elizabeth.

Elizabeth stiffened clutching her hands tightly going not going unnoticed by Astral.

"I may have heard about it but I don't think I've seen her", she said.

"Oh really? Guess I'd have to keep looking", Yuma said thoughtfully.

"Say Lizzie"?

"Yes"? She asked.

"Do you live here all by yourself"? Yuma asked.

Elizabeth grew wide-eyed but then sadly nodded. "Yes I use to live here with my mother but... She died of sickness a few years ago", she said.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't I mean", Yuma began nervously.

"Relax Yuma you didn't know so its ok", she assured with a small smile.

Yuma sighed in relief. "Thanks. So you've lived here in the mountains"? He asked.

"Yes but... I would love to go to the city and see the people and such there", she said with a far off look.

"So why don't you"? Yuma asked, Astral looking curious.

"Well I'm... I'm a bit scared of the outside world I guess", she mumbled, hugging her knees.

Yuma looked surprised but then grinned and held her hand Elizabeth looking at him surprised. "Then how about I take you there you stick with me and my friends and it wont be scary", he said, with a smile.

Elizabeth was shocked by Yuma's words and then softly smiled back gently touching his hand. "Thank you Yuma", she said softly.

"Dang that Yuma"!

The others were walking Hotaru grumbling as Darka sighed. "That's Yuma for you always acts before thinking",Takashi said.

"Always been like that", Tokunosuke said.

"Well he should learn to think I mean he has Astral why cant he act as a conscious for that kid"? Hotaru sighed.

Darka only sighed again then stopped Hotaru doing the same the others looked confused. "Is something wrong"? Cathy asked.

"Darka, Hotaru"? Sirius asked.

The sisters ignored them. "You sensed it"? Hotaru asked eyes narrowed.

"Yeah", Darka nodded.

Then they all heard hissing gasping as the sisters turned. "Over there"! Darka yelled.

They all turned and gasped to see snakes hissing and slithering toward them. "AHH! Snakes"! Tokunosuke yelled.

"They must belong to the maiden"! Takashi yelled.

'Heh such pathetic beings I don't see what Elizabeth sees in you all'.

They all gasped to see a larger snake slithering in front it was jet black with piercing red eyes dark purple markings on it as it raised it's head to fully face them all. "Wait did that snake talked"?! Lyra gasped.

"It cant be a normal snake if it can", Sirius frowned.

"That's because it isn't a snake to begin with", Hotaru hissed.

"Not a real snake"? Shane questioned.

'Looks like we have some keen humans unless... You're no ordinary humans', the snake chuckled.

"You can say that we're not fully human", Darka said.

"You said a name just now Elizabeth I take it she's the so called Maiden of Snakes", Hotaru said.

''That's right a name she inherited from our master passed in her family for generations', the snake like creature hissed.

"Your master"? Antares questioned.

Elizabeth gasped looking at the woods Yuma was confused. "Lizzie what's wrong"? He asked worried.

"Yuma-san did you come here alone"? Elizabeth asked shaking.

"Huh? Oh no I came here with my friends but I kind of ran off without them", he said sheepishly.

"We have to go".

Yuma looked at Elizabeth surprised as she stood. "We have to hurry your friends are in danger", she said.

"Huh? What do you mean? What's going on"? Yuma asked standing.

"Yuma something is wrong we should go with Elizabeth", Astral said.

Yuma was still a bit confused but nodded. "Ok Lizzie lets go", he said.

Elizabeth nodded as they then ran back in the woods and then heard voices. "Guys"! Yuma called out.

"Yuma there you are! Where have you been"?! Kotori frowned.

"Sorry"! Yuma said quickly.

"Is this really the time"? Shane questioned.

Elizabeth swiftly walked to face the large snake creature. "Cobra enough stay away from these people", she said sternly.

'Oh Elizabeth I see you're trying to defend these people like you always tend to do I don't see the point though', Cobra hissed.

"Cobra"! Elizabeth said angrily.

"Wait what is going on here Lizzie? You know that thing"? Yuma questioned confused.

"Elizabeth? So she's the Maiden of Snakes", Hotaru frowned.

"Wait she is"?! Yuma gap.

"You didn't know Yuma"? Tetsu asked shocked.

"I just met Lizzie and I was asking her about it I didn't know she was the maiden", Yuma said defensively.

'Why of course she wouldn't say anything after all she hates it', Cobra chuckled.

"Huh? She hates it"? Lyra said confused.

Elizabeth clutched her hands tightly as Cobra gave a snake smirk. 'Oh yes she does having to isolate herself from the outside world knowing it was her mother's wish before she passed away yet she doesn't wish to do so she wishes to be out there with all you humans to live a so called 'normal' life but she should know more than anyone she can't have that', he said.

"Enough Cobra please", Elizabeth said shaking.

'But its the truth and if you did leave then it would mean breaking your dear mother's promise', Cobra said.

Elizabeth gasped and hugged herself shaking the others shocked. "I'm really starting to hate that thing", Hotaru growled.

"Same here", Darka frowned.

Then suddenly Yuma stepped up shielding Elizabeth from Cobra. "Leave Lizzie alone you overgrown lizard"! He yelled.

Everyone gaped at him as Yuma continued. "Lizzie's mom wouldn't have wanted her to stay here her whole life she would've wanted Lizzie to go explore the world with her own eyes not just here in these mountains", he said.

"Yuma", Elizabeth said stunned.

'And how would you know human'? Cobra asked with venom.

"I may not have known Lizzie's mom but I can tell she cared about Lizzie and her happiness and I know she wouldn't want Lizzie to live like this", Yuma said.

Then Yuma faced Lizzie smiling. "So how about it Lizzie want to come with us"? He asked smiling.

Elizabeth was stunned by this then heard laughing and turned to face everyone. "Geez Yuma you're really are Kazuma's son but I have to say I agree with your words", Hotaru said smirking.

"Indeed no person should isolate themselves they should have the right to explore the world if they want", Darka said with a smile.

"Yeah we can show Lizzie all of Heartland", Cathy said excitedly.

"And take her to all the best shops too", Kotori smiled.

"We can even show her the duels here too", Antares grinned.

"Another member of the group this should be fun", Koru smiled.

"We'd be happy to have you Lizzie", Harumi said.

"Definitely"! Lyra agreed.

"See Lizzie? You're not alone", Yuma smiled.

Elizabeth had tears streaming down her eyes as she was about to speak.

'Do you honestly think I'll let this happen'?

Then snakes started coming at them all they gasped getting back as they wrapped around Elizabeth. "AHH"! She cried out.

"Lizzie"! Yuma gasped.

'Elizabeth is to stay here that is her fate', Cobra said.

"No way am I agreeing to that"! Yuma yelled.

Cobra looked at Yuma then smirked. 'Then lets make a deal human you shall duel against Elizabeth yet I will play her moves if you win she goes with you but if I win she is to stay here and you'll never to see her again', he said.

"What"?! They gasped.

"Cobra stop this"! Elizabeth cried out.

'Unfortunately I cant do that Elizabeth you wanted to break away from your fate so I am to stop you', Cobra said.

"Not on my watch I'll take you on"! Yuma said.

"Go get him Yuma"! Tetsu said.

"Show that snake who's boss"! Hotaru yelled.

"Yuma", Elizabeth said softly.

Yuma smiled at Elizabeth. "Don't worry Lizzie I'll save you", he assured.

'Then its agreed Elizabeth get set', Cobra hissed.

Elizabeth frowned but nodded. "Alright then Duel Disk set! D-Gazer set"!

Yuma set his duel disk and D-Gazer while Elizabeth got hers it was colored pale pink and red with scale like designs while her D-Gazer was white with red lens. "Lets duel"!

"I'll start off I draw"! Yuma said.

"Yuma we have to be cautious we have no idea what this Cobra is planning", Astral said.

"I know but we got to take the chance to save Lizzie", Yuma said.

Astral looked at Yuma and sighed yet smiled. "You're right let us then try our best to save her", he said.

"Right"! Yuma grinned.

"Alright first I summon Gagaga Magician in attack mode".

And the magician monster appeared on the field.

Gagaga Magician

Level: 4

Atk Points: 1500

Def Points: 1000

"Next if I have a level 4 monster on my field I can special summon Kagetokage from my hand".

And the reptile monster appeared beside Gagaga Magician.

Kagetokage

Level: 4

Atk Points: 1100

Def Points: 1500

"Now I overlay my level 4 Gagaga Magician and Kagetokage to build the overlay network! Appear Number 39: King of wishes, Hope"!

And with the bright glow and number Utopia appeared onto the field.

Number 39: King of wishes, Hope

Rank: 4

Atk Points: 2500

Def Points: 2000

"Next I place a card facedown and end my turn", Yuma said.

'About time human I draw', Cobra said, Elizabeth drawing the card from her deck.

'I summon Reptilianne Gorgon in attack mode".

And the gorgon like reptile monster appeared on the field with a hideous smirk.

Reptilianne Gorgon

Level: 3

Atk Points: 1400

Def Points: 1400

"Oh I am so glad Manami isn't here or she would be freaking out by the snake monsters", Hotaru said with a sigh.

"That's for sure", Darka said.

'Next I activate the equip spell card Molting Escape and equip it to my Gorgon with this once per turn my Gorgon won't be destroyed in battle and when using this effect my Gorgon gains an additional 100 Atk Points', Cobra said.

'Now Reptilianne Gorgon attack Utopia'.

"Why would he let a monster of 1400 atk points attack Utopia who has 2500 Atk Points?! Its suicidal"! Takeshi gaped.

'Poison Glare'.

And while Reptilianne Gorgon launched the attack Utopia grabbed his blade and slashed at the attack.

Cobra's LPs: 4000 - 2900

'Due to Molten Escape's effect my monster isn't destroyed and it gains an extra 100 Atk Points', Cobra said.

Reptilianne Gorgon

Atk Points: 1400 - 1500

"Did he only attack just to increase his monster's attack points"? Antares questioned.

"No that isn't it", Astrana frowned.

Cobra smirked. 'Your Hope is now sealed away', he said.

"Huh"? Yuma said confused.

"Yuma look"! Elizabeth yelled.

They looked and gasped to see Uotpia being turned to stone. "Hope"! Yuma gasped.

"When Reptilianne Gorgon attacks a monster after damage calculation your monster's Atk Points become 0 and is unable to change it's battle position", Elizabeth explained gravely.

"No way"! Yuma gasped.

'That's right know I never make mistakes in my moves next I summon Reptilianne Servant in defense mode", Cobra said.

And a black and pink striped snake appeared on the field.

Reptilianne Servant

Level: 1

Atk Points: 100

Def Points: 100

'As long as Reptilianne Servant is on the field neither of us can summon any monsters, I then end my turn', Cobra finished.

"Just great Hope is turned to stone with his atk points at 0 and Yuma can't even put it in defense mode", Tetsu frowned.

"And with Reptilianne Servant he cant summon any new monsters", Cat said worried.

"He better have a plan I have a feeling Cobra isn't showing his true strength", Shane said with a frown.

"Its my move draw"! Yuma said.

"We'll have to play defensively Yuma until we can find a way to beat him", Astral said.

"Right I place two cards facedown and end my turn", Yuma said.

'Hmph feel hopeless don't you? Good that's what all you humans shall feel for her sake', Cobra hissed with cold.

"Her"? Kotori asked.

"He means grandmother".

They all looked at Elizabeth surprised as she was shaking Cobra hissed angrily. 'Silence Elizabeth'! He yelled.

"Your grandma"? Yuma said surprised.

"Yeah back in her time people hated her very much just because she was different from them so she decided to come up here to live her days where she tamed the snakes and became the first Maiden of Snakes her only friend being Cobra", Elizabeth said sadly.

'Elizabeth'! Cobra hissed.

"That's terrible", Lyra said.

"One person who was actually a student at the Duel Sanctuary met my grandmother to meet the Maiden of Snakes at the beginning my grandmother sick her snakes at him to try to bite him to death but he always managed to runaway", Elizabeth said.

Everyone sweatdropped at this. "But he kept coming to see her everyday until she gave up and talked to him and to her shock he didn't treat her like a freak like the other people did and after a while one thing led to another and they got together and had mom but years after mom was born grandma and grandpa died in an accident mom then lived here by herself the master of the Sanctuary back then took care of her and his son married my mother and had me but they died too three years ago and I've only had Cobra here as company", Elizabeth explained.

"But what about Rokujuro-sama"? Darka questioned.

"He's never met me Cobra and my snakes made sure of that", Elizabeth said.

'We're doing the best for you! Humans can never understand'! Cobra said.

"That's not true! Lizzie's grandpa understood her grandma and the same with her parents humans aren't all bad"! Yuma yelled.

'Silence! Its my turn draw! I sacrifice my Gorgon and Servant to special summon! Appear mighty snake who has stayed by your maiden for years! I summon Reptilianne Poison Cobra"!

Then appearing on the field was Cobra but larger with pure white fangs dripping in venom as his spirit self slid in the monster hissing at Yuma.

Reptilianne Poison Cobra

Level: 7

Atk Points: 2600

Def Points: 2000

"He's huge"! They all yelled.

"Oh I am so glad we left Manami at the Sanctuary"! Hotaru yelled.

'No human will understand them like I do'! Cobra yelled.

'I then equip myself with Serpent Wings'!

Then Cobra sprouted black wings on his back.

'With this I gain an extra 900 Atk Points', Cobra smirked.

Reptilliane Poison Cobra

Atk Points: 2600 - 3500

'I attack your Utopia! Poisonous Fang'!

Cobra then shot himself out to bite Utopia the venom in his fangs gleaming. "Yuma"! Elizabeth gasped.

"Its alright Lizzie I got it! I activate the trap Half Unbreak! With this my monster isn't destroyed and damage is cut in half"! Yuma yelled.

Cobra hissed as he shot out the venom as it hit the bubbles that wrapped around Utopia.

Yuma's LPs: 4000 - 2250

'Tch you survived this time but my ability activates you see if didn't destroy your monster in battle you take damage equal to half of your monster's atk points', Cobra smirked.

"What"?! Yuma gaped.

"Utopia had 2500 Atk points", Sirius began.

"So Yuma takes 1250 points of damage", Antares gulped.

'Feel the burn of my venom! Burning Venom'! Cobra yelled.

Cobra slithered and bit Yuma. "Ack"! Yuma cried out.

"Yuma"! Astral and Kotori cried out.

Yuma's LPs: 2250 - 1000

"Yuma are you alright"? Astral asked worried.

"Y-yeah I'm alright", Yuma winced.

'Hmph we'll see about that I end my turn', Cobra hissed.

Elizabeth was shaking tears streaming. 'See Elizabeth this is what happens to humans who try to involve themselves with us humans aren't like us they could never understood us', Cobra hissed.

Elizabeth shook hanging her head as the tears fell.

"Don't listen to him Lizzie"!

Elizabeth gasped and looked up to see Yuma. "Don't listen to him people can understand each other I mean we understand each other right"? Yuma asked.

Elizabeth was stunned remembering her talking with Yuma, actually smiling with Yuma, feeling happy and understood as she shook. "I promise you Lizzie I'm going to save you and show you the whole entire city! Along with our friends trust me", Yuma said.

She began to shake her hair covering her eyes she was silent until she shakingly spoke. "P-please Yuma-kun please save me", she whimpered.

'Elizabeth'! Cobra snarled.

"Got it Lizzie! I will save you I promise! My turn draw"! Yuma said.

"Yuma we have now a winning formula now let us win this duel", Astral said.

"That's the spirit! Now its my turn draw! I overlay Hope and his overlay units so to become one! Chaos Xyz Change! Show yourself, Chaos Numbers 39. The power of hope, the messenger that changes chaos into light! Number C39: King of wishes, Hope Ray"!

And Hope went in the Xyz portal with the overlay units and reappeared again in his chaos number form.

Number C39: King of wishes, Hope Ray

Rank: 4

Atk Points: 2500

Def Points: 2000

'Tch not like it has the strength to beat me', Cobra scoffed.

"You think so"? Yuma smirked.

"I activate Hope Ray's ability! By using one overlay unit he gains an extra 500 Atk points and you lose 1000 Atk Points"!

'What'?! Cobra hissed.

"I'll use all three overlay units so he gains 1500 Atk Points and you lose 3000 Atk Points"! Yuma said.

Number C39: King of wishes, Hope Ray

Atk Points: 2500 - 4000

Reptilliane Poison Cobra

Atk Points: 3500 - 500

'Darn you'! Cobra snarled.

"Now Hope Ray attack Cobra! Hope Sword Chaos Slash"! Yuma yelled.

With his three swords Hope slashed down on Cobra as he cried out and Elizabeth shrieked being flung back by the shockwave.

Cobra's LPs: 2900 - 0

"Lizzie"! Yuma gasped, running to her.

Yuma ran to where Elizabeth was groaning Yuma helped her sit up. "Are you alright"? He asked worried.

"Y-yeah I'm fine", she assured with a small smile.

'S-stay away from her'.

They all gasped to see Cobra in his spirit self heavily his red eyed glaring angrily. "Man he never gives up", Takashi said.

'I will not lose her to you humans never again'! Cobra yelled.

Elizabeth gasped at his words. "Oh I see now", she said softly.

Then Elizabeth carefully stood up and walked to Cobra. "Lizzie", Yuma began.

"Its ok Yuma-kun I got this", Elizabeth assured with a smile to him.

Yuma was unsure but nodded as Elizabeth walked to Cobra crouching down and gently touched his head. "The reason you hate humans so much is because you think its their fault you're alone", she said.

"Huh"? Yuma said confused.

"What does she mean"? Astrana asked.

"You had grandma by your side until she finally found someone to be with it was the same with mom too you loved them very much but when they found loved ones they pretty much left you behind that's why you made sure that it wouldn't be the same with me that's why you didn't want me to leave here cause if I did I would leave you behind", Elizabeth said softly.

Cobra gasped and looked away. 'Your grandmother cherished us Reptiliannes but once she found solace with that human man we were left behind until we were given to your mother she too had cherished us but like before we were left behind this is why I despise humans', he said.

"But Cobra if you cared about grandma and mom. Wouldn't you want them to be happy though"? Elizabeth said gently.

Cobra twitched silent then he looked at everyone looking at Yuma and finally at Elizabeth. 'You truly wish to be with these humans'? He asked.

Elizabeth looked at everyone who smiled at her then at Yuma who grinned then she faced Cobra and nodded. "Yes I do", she said.

Cobra sighed then looked at Yuma. 'What is your full name human'? He asked.

"Oh! Its Yuma Tsukumo", Yuma said.

'Hear me Yuma Tsukumo I trust you to care for Elizabeth if you so much as hurt her I will destroy you. Understand'? He asked.

Yuma grew wide-eyed but nodded. "I promise", he said.

Cobra nodded and sighed. 'I'm so tired', he said.

"Then rest", Elizabeth said gently.

'Elizabeth your deck... Place it on your grandmother's grave and move forward with a new deck go forth and don't stop see this world with your own eyes do it for your grandmother, your mother, and... For us'.

Cobra then disappeared in light sparkles Elizabeth watched stunned as she then stood up. "Lizzie"? Yuma asked.

"Yuma-kun mind giving me a moment? I'll be back", she said.

Elizabeth then ran off everyone watching her go Yuma was silent until. "You guys head back to the Sanctuary I'll be right back", he said.

Then Yuma ran off following Elizabeth the others smiling.

Elizabeth wore a pure white cloak as she locked her cottage then walked to four graves that were next to it as she placed her deck on one of them. "Mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa today I'm going to leave the mountains I met new friends and I'm going to see the city there with my own eyes I'm a little nervous and scared but its going to be ok because I wont be alone", she said softly.

Then she looked up and wasn't surprised to see Yuma there who smiled sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck she smiled back as she looked back at the graves. "I wont be alone not when someone is there to help me", she said softly.

Then Elizabeth walked over to Yuma she smiled at him and he grinned back as they then walked off Elizabeth made one looked back one last time before she walked off with Yuma unknown to her that four spirits with a snake watched her go all with happy smiles.

Aurasoul: And its done! My longest chapter yet!

Darka: That's for sure. Where did you get the idea for Elizabeth anyway?

Aurasoul: Oh she's actually my sister's OC she liked the anime and asked if she can have her own character in my story so I said yes and plus she has a crush on Yuma. That's right folks this is a Yuma x OC! And if you read Durbe the Barian's stories you'll know who I'm pairing Kotori up with.

Manami: I have a feeling so next time Astral and Astrana tell Yuma and Darka about the Numeron Code and we can finally start the hunt for the Legendary Numbers! So until next time.

Darka: Read and please review.
