Chapter 17

Flashback…

Darka was looking out at the ocean at the viewpoint of the city Astrana looking at her curiously. "Darka why did you call Yuma and my brother asking them to meet with us here"? Astrana asked.

"Just need to talk with them and you about something important", Darka hummed.

"About what"? Astrana asked with a frown.

"I'll tell when they get here", Darka hummed.

Astrana looked at Darka as she then heard footsteps they looked to see Yuma and Astral coming to them. "Hey Darka sorry if you waited too long", Yuma said, walking to her side.

"No its fine I wasn't waiting long", Darka assured with a smile.

"So what did you wish to talk to us about"? Astral asked.

"Yes I'm just as curious Darka", Astrana said.

"Heh relax I'll talk now", Darka chuckled.

Darka softly let out a breath looking out at the view again before facing the three. "There's a favor I want to ask you two Yuma, Astral", she said.

"A favor"? Yuma asked confused.

"Yeah", Darka nodded.

"What sort of favor"? Astral questioned.

Darka looked out at the view again making the three worry. "Darka"? Astrana called.

Darka then turned to them with a gentle and warm smile. "If anything happens to me please take care of Astrana and hold onto my Numbers", she said.

"Eh"?! Yuma and Astrana gasped shocked, Astral growing wide eyed in shock.

"Hey wait a second Darka what are you talking about"?! Yuma said shocked.

"Darka what are you getting at"? Astrana demanded.

"Hear me out", Darka said, raising her hand with a small smile.

"Look we don't know what will happen things are getting more and more dangerous now and we won't know the outcome on these things so this is out of precaution".

"Darka you're not", Astrana began.

"Look I'm not going down not without a fight anyway like I said this is just out of precaution we can't take the chance if things don't go the way we plan you know", Darka said.

"Even so to say it like that", Yuma said frowning.

Darka gave a small smile as she patted Yuma's head surprising him. "Like I said I'm not going down not without a fight", she grinned.

Yuma looked at her surprised while Astral smiled. "Alright Darka we promise then", he said.

"Astral/brother", Yuma and Astrana said surprised.

"We promise to take care of Astrana and hold onto your Numbers", Astral assured with a small smile.

Yuma gaped at his partner before he sighed. "Well yeah that goes without saying but just promise you'll make sure you'll be careful", he said, looking at Darka.

"Of course thank you both of you", Darka smiled.

Then Darka looked at Astrana who still had a frown on her face Darka gave a small smile before gently taking Astrana's hand surprising her. "Come on don't give me that look Astrana you know I'm not going anywhere", she said.

Astrana blinked before sighing. "I just don't like how you say it so… Nonchalantly it's almost as if you don't mind"-

"I'm gonna stop you right there Astrana", Darka interrupted.

"I do mind I mind it greatly but we have to think of the bigger picture on things".

Darka looked at Yuma and Astral with a small smile before looking at Astrana. "I'm really glad the four of us have met and we will win this war together", she said.

"Well of course"! Yuma grinned, placing his hand over theirs.

"That goes without saying", Astral nodded with a smile, doing the same.

Astrana looked at them before looking at Darka. "You promise"? She asked.

"I promise", Darka assured.

Finally Astrana smiled. "Thank you Darka", she said.

End of flashback…

"Darka"!

Darka gasped swiftly turning to Astrana who was calling to her. "A-Astrana", she said.

"You have to pull yourself together! We're in the middle of the duel"! Astrana said urgently.

Darka gasped remembering their situation quickly turning cursing under her breath as Harumi chuckled darkly. "What's wrong Darka? Are you feeling so unwell you're hallucinating"? She questioned with a smirk.

"Oi, oi what's up with Darka"? Hotaru frowned deeply.

"She never loses focus like that almost as if her spirit isn't there", Kaito frowned worried now.

"Darka", Yuma swallowed worried.

Unknown to them Vector, hiding behind one of the floating crystals looked with a growl. "Damn those two they're just doing whatever they want but it is getting interesting especially once they get the job done", Vector thought with a sneer.

"This Chaos Field inflicts pain on those two hehe this should be an enjoyable sight worth seeing".

Darka shook her head. "Shit, why the hell did I remember that now of all times"? She thought.

Then she looked at her hand and grew wide eyed. "No unless… Dammit"! She thought.

"Because of Heart-eartH Dragon's effect Rosen Gift is negated we have to be critical", Astrana said.

"I know", Darka frowned.

"Next move? Please it's over for the both of you"! Harumi smirked evilly.

"Coat of Arms attack Green Rose Enchantress"!

"This is bad if this attack goes through they're finish"! Shark said.

"Darka use Shadowheart Defender"! Astrana yelled.

"Yeah, I activate the effect of Shadowheart Defender from my hand"! Darka yelled.

And appearing on the field was a young man with black hair and piercing ice blue eyes wearing starling gray armor and holding a large silver shield.

Shadowheart Defender

Level: 4

Atk Points: 1500

Def Points: 2000

"Since we summoned a monster Rosen Gift is sent to the graveyard", Darka said, as the petals disappeared in sparkles.

"Tch worthless struggle Chaos of Arms attack Shadowheart Defender"! Harumi yelled, as Chaos of Arms launched the attack.

"I activate Shadowheart Defender's effect! By sending a Shadowheart monster to the graveyard this card can negate the attack"! Astrana said.

"I send Shadowheart Homunculus to the graveyard"! Darka yelled.

Shadowheart Defender raised his shield blocking the attack. "But you two still take damage", Blackmist smirked.

"AAAAHHH"! Darka and Astrana cried, being sent flying by the aftershock.

Darka's LPs: 4000 – 1500

"Darka, Astrana"! Lyra gasped.

Darka slowly got up with a wince electricity shocking her and Astrana as Harumi smirked. "This won't be making much of a difference you know Black Storm attack Shadowheart Defender"! Harumi yelled.

"And at this moment Black Storm's effect activates! When it battles by using one Chaos Overlay Unit it can make the attacking opposing monster's attack power zero and add the same amount of points to Black Storm's attack points"!

Black Storm launched its tentacles at Shadowheart Defender piercing him making him cry out as his attack power dropped and Black Storm's attack power rose.

Shadowheart Defender

Atk Points: 1500 – 0

Number C96: Black Storm

Atk Points: 1000 – 2500

"Now continue the assault"! Harumi yelled.

"I activate Shadowheart Homunculus's effect from the graveyard"! Darka yelled.

"By removing it from play I negate Shadowheart Defender's destruction and makes all damage to the player zero"!

Appearing out of the portal was a stark gray skinned monster with black eyes and a red gem on its forehead as it screeched taking the hit from Black Storm's attack in an explosion with a large cry. "Again"?! Harumi growled.

"They just don't know when to give up its pathetic"! Blackmist yelled.

"Listen here for we won't lose"! Astrana said.

"Don't you forget it"! Darka hissed.

"If that's the case then Heart-eartH Dragon attack Shadowheart Defender"! Harumi yelled.

Heart-eartH Dragon launched the blast destroying Defender in an explosion causing Darka and Astrana to be sent flying with a screech as they hit the pillars making them scream in pain the others watching in horror as Darka slid down to the floor.

Darka's LPs: 1500 – 500

"With only 500 LPs left do you still intend to battle with your bodies so beat up"? Harumi questioned with a malice chuckle.

Darka panted as she slowly stood up. "Not yet we haven't lost yet"! She growled.

"Hmph pathetic now for this", Harumi smirked.

"I activate Heart- earth Dragon's effect! I gain LPs equal to the total amount of battle damage you took during battle this turn with that my LPs become 7500"!

Harumi's LPs: 4000 – 7500

"7500 LPs"?! Kaito said shocked.

"N-no way"! Yuma said shocked.

"Now do you understand? It's impossible for you to defeat us", Blackmist smirked, as Harumi chuckled.

"Enough of your talk we won't lose no matter what"! Darka yelled, panting heavily.

"I and Astrana with the power of our bonds we will make you see the light! We'll show you our own kattobing"-!

Darka gasped her vision blurring as she kneeled down gasping in pain. "Darka"! They gasped.

Darka coughed practically hacking as Harumi and Blackmist smirked and Vector snickered gleefully. "Darka you've reached your limit stand down and rest", Astrana said.

"Like hell I am I'm… Perfectly fine", Darka gasped out, before she choked out a gasp of pain and coughed out blood.

"Darka"! They gasped.

"Guess you finally reached your limit hybrid", Harumi smirked.

Darka growled as she panted Astrana looked at her before moving in front of her as a cerulean duel disk formed on her wrist. "Darka leave the rest to me", she said, as Darka's cards went in Astrana's duel disk.

"Astrana", Darka winced.

"Darka your courage is what makes you strong it gives you the will to move onward without looking back toward the ones who believe in you".

"Astrana you", Darka began stunned.

"Whatever form we may take we're always fighting together", Astrana smiled, before glaring at Harumi and Blackmist.

"Now Harumi, Blackmist! I'll be your opponent"!

"Tch that nonsense of the will to move onward", Harumi scoffed.

"Though, it is quite similar to the Giver of Life".

They grew wide eyed as Harumi went on. "By her will hoping to help her people she created Barian World but as an end result both worlds became fragile and to make matters worse the denizens of both worlds are at world with each other with malicious toward one another and bringing not only those two worlds but the Human world to the verge of destruction", she smirked.

"As the proof we stand here and you all stand here all to reach the inevitable of your own demise and that is why you all will be destroyed here and now"! Blackmist smirked.

"I activate the continuous magic card Number Karma from my hand"! Harumi yelled.

"At the end of your turn with this card, when you don't have a Number on your field, you take 500 points of damage"!

"Say what"?! Shark said shocked.

"On her next turn if she can't summon a Number, Darka and Astrana will lose", Kaito frowned.

"I set one card facedown and end my turn", Harumi smirked.

"Since my turn is over Chaos of Arms attack points return to normal".

Number C69: Death Medallion – Chaos of Arms

Atk Points: 6800 - 4000

Astrana frowned. "The Numbers Return we have set on our field will bring a Number back from our graveyard and in our graveyard we have Rose Enchantress along with Coat of Arms and Heart-eartH Dragon", she thought.

"But with their thinking they're using Number Karma to lure me out and with that those set cards are likely"…

"Now what will you do Astrana"?! Blackmist smirked.

"That's right Darka we must duel by moving straight forward and never looking back"! Astrana thought with a light smile.

"My turn, draw! I activate my trap Numbers Return! This card can only be activated during my turn it can special summon one Number from my graveyard"!

"So then which Number will you choose"? Harumi questioned with a smirk.

"Coat of Arms"? Kaito said.

"Or will it be Heart-eartH Dragon"? Shark said.

"Knowing Astrana".

They looked at Yuma who was grinning. "Knowing Astrana she'll definitely choose that one", he said.

"Indeed", Astral nodded.

"What do you mean"? Sirius questioned.

"I"… Astrana began, before smiling.

"The one I bring back is… Rose Enchantress"!

They all gasped shocked except Yuma and Astral who smiled as the dark purple portal opened and appearing out of it with falling red rose petals was Rose Enchantress as she stood tall on the field.

Number 38: Rose Enchantress

Rank: 4

Atk Points: 2600

Def Points: 2000

"And thanks to the effect of Numbers Return, the Numbers in my graveyard become Rose Enchantress's Overlay Units"! Astrana said.

Two dark purple Overlay Units came out from the portal to circle around Rose Enchantress. "You had two powerful monsters in your graveyard to revive and you chose Rose Enchantress"?! Blackmist said.

"Rose Enchantress is… The first bond I shared with Astrana"!

They all looked to see Darka slowly sitting up with a smirk. "For no matter how bad a duel gets for us she will always be there to give us courage", Darka said.

"Rose Enchantress has fought with us the longest and she is our friend of courage! And that is why we will believe in her"!

Rose Enchantress lightly glowed red as Harumi laughed. "Ha! That's a bunch of foolishness those kinds of feelings of trust do nothing but produce suspicion, create hatred, and give birth to betrayal"! She smirked.

"Then what of you and Blackmist"?! Darka yelled.

"What"? Harumi questioned.

"That would be the same for you and Blackmist you realized that but you still chose to trust Blackmist believing that he had changed for the better you took that risk and I know you haven't regretted it", Darka said.

Harumi and Blackmist gasped before Harumi shook her head as Blackmist growled. "Silence! We'll erase those annoyances that bring nothing but trouble one by one"! He yelled.

"That will bring an ideal world"!

"What a load of nonsense utter nonsense"!

They gasped seeing Darka slowly stand up as the Empress's Key around her neck gleamed. "That isn't the ideal world you want and we don't need it for there are many different kinds of people with different personalities in the three worlds and yes we all mess up and make mistakes but that shows that we are all the same on the inside and for that someone will teach us the right way! Isn't that why we have our friends and comrades close to us"?! She yelled.

"You become one with your comrades and with that strength two to three or even more times stronger is born"!

Darka stood up panting glowing a silver aura as she clenched her fists tightly. "I've had the most wonderful time with all the friends and people I have met up till now and that includes you two Harumi, Blackmist that is why I will never back down and make sure to snap you back to your senses"! She yelled, her six white wings sprouting from her back.

They all gasped stunned as Astrana smiled. "Darka", she said, making Darka gasp and look at her.

"Let us finish this together".

"Astrana", Darka said.

"Let us use ZEXAL", Astrana said, holding out her hand.

"Heh yeah", Darka smiled, reaching out.

"Let's do it"!

Darka took Astrana's hand causing a silver light to shine making them all gasp. "I will take myself", Darka began.

"Along with me", Astrana said.

"And Overlay"! They yelled together.

Enveloped in the silver and aquamarine mists they flew together as the others watched with smiles. "Go show them your, Kattobingu Darka, Astrana"! Yuma grinned.

"We'll build the Overlay Network with the two of us"! Darka said.

The two came together forming a blue x of ZEXAL in a bright glow as they heard Astrana speak. "When the souls of two people come together bounded by their true bonds a blessing is handed down"! She spoke.

Once the light died down they looked and gasped surprised to see Darka's ZEXAL form has changed.

She now wore a white spandex like suit with violet designs resembling Astrana's marks with also a high low petal design dress colored white with green traces, white boots, her hair braided with light, two blue bangs, her eyes rose red her left eye more luminous, emanating a silver aura, and her duel disk having a similar design to Rose Enchantress's scepter.

"Zexal"!

"Holy their Zexal form changed", Hotaru gaped.

"A second version"?! Manami gasped.

Darka looked at herself surprised by the change. "How"? She began.

"It is because our bond as grown deeper as a result we managed to gain a much greater power", Astrana told her in her mind.

Darka grew wide eyed before smiling softly. "Yeah you're right", she said.

"Zexal huh? But unfortunately for you anything you try will be too late"! Harumi smirked.

"You may think so but the power of our bonds will never go out and will make you see the error of your ways", Darka said.

"Now go Rose Enchantress! Chaos Xyz Change"!

Rose Enchantress closed her eyes as she became dark purple mist going in the Overlay Network. "Appear now lady of the black night! Number C38: Black Rose Enchantress"! Darka yelled.

And with black rose petals falling Black Rose Enchantress appeared on the field.

Number C38: Black Rose Enchantress

Rank: 4

Atk Points: 2900

Def Points: 2500

"You fools"! Blackmist smirked.

"I activate the trap card Number Death Lock"! Harumi yelled.

"It activates by choosing one Number! I choose Black Rose"!

Suddenly a pillar appeared behind Darka making her turn in shock as chains shot out from it and grabbed Black Rose Enchantress tying her to the pillar. "Black Rose"! Darka gasped.

"With this the targeted monster cannot attack and you can't use its effects! And it'll be destroyed at the end of your turn and you'll take damage equal to its attack points"! Harumi smirked.

"2900 damage"?! Shark said shocked.

"If that happens", Kaito frowned.

"This time without a doubt this will end it all", Harumi smirked.

"Darka", Astrana said to Darka.

"Yeah I know", Darka smiled.

"I activate the spell card Xyz Treasure! For every Xyz monster on the field I can draw one card there are a total of four Xyz monsters on the field so I can draw four cards"!

Darka's deck glowed as she lifted her hand as it glow silver. "The duels of the strongest duelists are inevitable! Even the cards they draw are decided by the duelists! Shining Draw"! She yelled, drawing her four cards.

She looked at them with a smile. "Astrana do you trust me"? She asked.

"With my whole being I do", Astrana said.

Darka smiled as she faced Harumi and Blackmist. "Allow me to show you one of the cards I drew", she said.

Harumi and Blackmist widen their eyes in surprise as did the others as Darka took out one card from her hand and revealed it to show it was her own Rank Up Magic Numeron Force spell card. "Another Numeron Force"?! Shark said shocked.

"But its useless since Green Rose Enchantress is in the graveyard"! Sirius scowled.

"So is this a fluke with the Shining Draw"?! Yuma said shocked.

"Impossible", Astral said stunned.

"What are you playing at Darka? You know as well as I do that card is a waste when the monster is in the graveyard", Harumi scowled.

"No, no don't misunderstand for I shall show you the power of this new Zexal form", Darka smiled, raising the card.

"Dearest feelings reunited will rebuild the courage for the miracle of the future! Re-Contract Universe"!

The Numeron Force glowed silver and was changed into the Rank Up Magic Limited Barian's Force in a red sparkle making her smile. "What?! You modified the card"?! Harumi said shocked.

"She changed Numeron Force", Hotaru began shocked.

"To Barian's Force"?! Antares gaped.

"The light of miracles repels the darkness but truly just shows the other side of the same coin in which others refuse to see", Darka said with a soft smile before facing Harumi and Blackmist with a stern frown.

"I side with both Astral World and Barian World I choose not to go against the other as such I shall use both powers.

"Darka", Yuma said stunned.

"Too incredible", Shane smirked.

"I activate Rank Up Magic Limited Barian's Force! With this I rank up one of my Xyz monsters and special summon one Chaos Xyz! I rebuild the Overlay Network with Black Rose Enchantress"! Darka yelled.

The chains that chained Black Rose Enchantress broke as she became dark purple mist going to the Overlay Network in a red explosion. "Chaos Xyz Change! Come forth Chaos Number 38! White Spellcaster who unifies chaos, break the age old curse and set free the victims of the darkness! Bloom, White Rose Enchantress"!

White rose petals fell making them all gasp stunned as Rose Enchantress appeared wearing a beautiful white rose design dress, her hair a lovely shade of silvery gray with white cherry blossom petals in her hair, her jade green eyes now emerald green, white leather sandals, her circlet silver with a striking red gem, her scepter silver with a gray orb with a white rose inside in full bloom, her Number as usual on her right arm red, and two yellow Overlay Units circling her.

Number C38: White Rose Enchantress

Rank: 5

Atk Points: 2700

Def Points: 2000

"W-White Rose Enchantress"? Shark said shocked.

"Something that pure to be form of the Barian's Force"? Lyra said stunned.

"Haha! Leave it to Darka to do the insanity"! Hotaru smirked.

"White Rose Enchantress's effect activates when she's been Xyz summoned on the field she destroys all face up spell cards and trap cards on your field", Darka said.

"What"?! Harumi said shocked.

"Say farewell Chaos Field and Number Karma, White Petal Fall", Darka said, snapping her fingers.

White Rose Enchantress raised her scepter and white rose petals fell from above upon touching the spells they exploded in white explosions. "How dare you"! Blackmist growled.

"And there's more for every spell that's been destroyed your monsters lose 1000 attack points", Darka smirked.

"What"?! Harumi shrieked.

"Since two spells were destroyed her monsters lose 2000 attack points", Astral said.

Number C92: Void Dragon of Fade Bodies – Heart – eartH Chaos Dragon

Atk Points: 1000 - 0

Number C69: Death Medallion – Chaos of Arms

Atk Points: 4000 – 2000

Number C96: Black Storm

Atk Points: 2500 - 500

"Next I activate the field spell Rose Blessing Garden", Darka said.

They all gasped as the field changed to be in a rose field with roses of different color. "What is this"?! Harumi gasped.

"Much better nicer scenery", Darka smiled.

"I summon Zexal Weapon Griffon Staff"!

And flying on the field was a gray griffon as it screeched out rose petals flying by the flap of its powerful wings.

Zexal Weapon Griffon Staff

Level: 4

Atk Points: 1600

Def Points: 1000

"This card is equipped onto White Rose Enchantress on my field and she gains Griffon's attack points", Darka said.

Griffon Staff screeched before becoming yellow mist and flew in White Rose Enchantress's staff to give it gray wings.

Number C38: White Rose Enchantress

Atk Points: 2700 – 4300

"It doesn't matter even if you attack it isn't enough to defeat us"! Blackmist yelled.

"Hmph you seem to be forgetting two things", Darka smirked.

"White Rose Enchantress's other effect and the last card in my hand".

"What"?! Harumi gasped.

"White Rose Enchantress's effect by using one Overlay Unit I can special summon one level four or lower monster from my hand"! Darka yelled, as White Rose Enchantress hit her Overlay Unit with her staff.

"I special summon Zexal Weapon Chaos Sage"!

The second Zexal weapon appeared on the field of a female silver sage begin.

Zexal Weapon Chaos Sage

Level: 4

Atk Points: 1000

Def Points: 1000

"This card is equipped on White Rose Enchantress and raises her attack points", Darka said, as the sage became a silver light on White Rose Enchantress giving her silver open robes.

Number C38: White Rose Enchantress

Atk Points: 4300 - 5300

"Not only that but thanks to Sage, White Rose can attack every monster on the opponent's field and they can't activate their effects since you have three monsters so she can attack three times with her 7600 attack power", Darka smirked.

"All my monsters"?! Harumi said shocked.

"Since Harumi has 7500 LPs", Kaito smirked.

"This will beat her and Blackmist both down", Shark smirked.

Shane looked at Darka. "Such control of her dueling and power in a regal stance a master as if", he thought.

"Now White Rose Enchantress attack Heart-eartH Chaos Dragon"! Darka yelled, White Rose Enchantress twirling her staff.

"Too naïve"! Blackmist snarled.

"I activate my trap Chaos Alliance! It changes the attack power of all Chaos Numbers to that of the Number with the highest attack power on the field"! Harumi yelled.

"You're the naïve one I activate Rose Blessing Garden's effect"! Darka yelled.

"By removing from play a Rose monster from my graveyard your traps are unaffected".

"What"?! Harumi gasped.

"I remove from play Green Rose Enchantress farewell Chaos Alliance"! Darka smirked.

Green rose petals blew in a frenzy destroying the trap. "This is checkmate, Harumi, Blackmist"! Darka yelled.

Astral grew wide eyed. "Checkmate"? He thought.

'This is checkmate'!

"White Rose Enchantress attack Heart-eartH Chaos Dragon! White Sage Rose Blizzard"! Darka yelled.

White Rose Enchantress twirled her scepter before launching a white petal blizzard destroying Heart-eartH in an explosion. "Ahhh"! Harumi shrieked.

Harumi's LPs: 7500 – 2200

"Now White Rose Enchantress attack Black Storm"! Darka yelled.

Once more White Rose Enchantress launched the blizzard at Black Storm destroying it causing a large explosion. "AHHH"! Harumi screamed, being sent flying.

"Harumi"! Blackmist yelled, catching her.

Harumi's LPs: 2200 – 0

"They did it"! Kotori cheered.

"Now White Rose Enchantress cleanse them of the darkness within dispel their curse"! Darka yelled.

White Rose Enchantress lifted her scepter as it glowed pure white making Harumi and Blackmist cry out in pain as a dark shadow left them Blackmist returning to normal as the two dropped to the floor unconscious Darka panted as she and Astrana separated from Zexal before Darka kneeled panting. "Darka"! They all cried, as Yuma and Astral rushed to their side.

"Darka are you ok"? Yuma asked worried, helping Darka stand.

"Yeah just tired that duel took a lot out of me luckily now those two will be back to normal", Darka said with a weak smile.

Astral looked at Darka as she stood straight though still pale and obviously tired. "What I recalled just now it was from no Number but from Darka herself something is amiss", he thought.

"Haha hahaha hahahahaha"!

They all gasped quickly looking to see Blackmist rising with a dark aura emanating from him. "What the hell"?! Hotaru gasped.

"Is Blackmist still"? Sirius began.

"No, that isn't Blackmist", Darka frowned.

"This feeling could it be"?

"I must say I have to applaud to you Darkalicia for defeating Blackmist and Harumi but that doesn't mean I lost", 'Blackmist' smirked, as the dark aura formed a sharp projectile.

"I just have to drag one of you down! And I'll pick Astral"!

Then the dark aura was launched toward the four making them all gasp. "Astral"! Yuma yelled.

"Shit, have to move"! Darka cursed, forming her wings to shield the attack.

Harumi groaned waking up before seeing what was happening and gasped. "No stop Darka! This is what he wants it's a trick"! She yelled.

"What"? Darka questioned.

*STAP*

They all gasped in horror and shock as Darka slowly blinked and looked down to see the dark aura piercing her chest making her cough blood. "DARKA"! They all yelled.

"Hahahaha! I knew you'd fall for that Darka"!

They all looked to see Vector out of his hiding spot laughing manically. "Vector"! Yuma yelled.

"I'll let you in on something Darka having you live is gonna be a pain on my plans so I decided to kill you right on the bat"! Vector said madly, laughing as he did.

"Vector have you realized what you've done"?! Sirius yelled angrily.

"Indeed I do I killed Darka Shinori"! Vector 'smirked' snidely.

Darka gasped in pain as the dark aura went in her making her cry out as her wings exploded in feathers as she screeched the dark aura emanating from her. "Ah… AHHHHHH"! She screamed.

"Darka"! Kaito yelled, as they all ran to her.

"No stay back"! Darka screeched, backing away from them as she clutched her chest tightly.

They all gasped as quickly took off the Empress's Key and her extra deck managing to toss them to Yuma as he caught them with a gasp. "Darka"! He called.

"Y-Yuma, Astral r-remember our promise", Darka choked out.

Yuma and Astral gasped as Astrana watched in complete horror. "Darka no"! She shrieked.

Darka sadly smiled. "I'm so sorry but I can't keep our promise", she said sadly.

Astrana gasped a tear slipping from her eye as Darka screamed again from pain. "AAAAAHHHH"! She screamed, thinking.

"This pain its practically burning me on the inside it hurts so much"!

'Painful isn't it'?

She gasped hearing the same dark voice in her mind. "Who? Who are you"? She thought shocked.

'Hehe as a parting gift to you Darkalicia Shinori with your death I shall tell you something', the voice chuckled darkly.

Then the voice spoke in her mind making her gasp in shock. "N-no way", she gasped.

Then she felt the pain worsen making her choke. "AAHHHHH"! She screamed.

"Darka"! They gasped.

"Hahahahaha! Goodbye forever Darka"! Vector laughed.

"Oh be silent you mad emperor".

"You shall not take this life".

Everyone gasped as dark purple and marine blue lights shot down in a shockwave before revealing themselves one a gray male Barian with mattered white hair, crimson reddish-black eyes, and wearing deep Barian World red robes with a gold dragon on it the other a pitch black female Astral being with dark purple curvy marks and stones, ice blue eyes, black hair, and wearing Astral World blue robes with a crimson red dragon on it. "This is a life you cannot take Vector", the Barian spoke.

"Yeah if we did she would be mad at us", the Astral being smirked.

"What"?! Vector gaped shocked.

"Wh-who are they"? Lyra said shocked.

"No way you, gotta be kidding me", Hotaru said shocked, sweat coming down.

"Impossible", Manami said stunned.

Darka looked at the two strangers shocked before she gasped screaming in pain again. "AAHHHHH! This is it I'm gonna die"! She thought.

"Rest easy Darkalicia Shinori".

Suddenly the Astral being appeared behind Darka making her gasp as she covered her eyes. "We won't let you die here", the Astral Being said.

"What"?! Darka gasped.

The Barian walked in front of Darka placing a hand on her wound as his hand glowed marine blue and Darka gasped feeling a pressure from the wound before she passed out falling in the Astral Beings arms. "I managed to stop most of the effect but we have to take her to Astral World to heal her", he said.

"I figured as much", the Astral being said with a sigh.

"Who are you and what have you done to Darka"?! Kaito yelled, about to walk to them.

"Dammit Tenjo show respect"! Hotaru hissed, grabbing Kaito's arm.

"What"? Kaito questioned.

"Who are these guys"? Shark questioned.

"An Astral Being who bares the mark of the Crimson Dragon", Manami said softly.

"And the Barian who bares the mark of the gold dragon yeah no doubt", Hotaru said with a strained look.

"Those two are the Sages of Astral World and Barian World".

"Eh?! You mean the same ones from the Shinori history book"?! Kotori said shocked.

"Glad to see Shinoris who continue to remember", the Astral being smirked.

"That's right I am the Astral Being Sage Nyx".

"And I am the Barian Sage you may call me Bakura", the Barian nodded.

"Just what are you Sages doing to Darka"? Astrana demanded.

The two faced her as Nyx picked Darka up bridal style. "We're here to take her to Astral World as accordance to the will of the Giver of Life", Nyx answered.

"What"?! They all said shocked.

"The Giver of Life? You were the ones who told the Shinori family that she died! Are you saying you lied"?! Hotaru yelled.

"We told you so by the order of the Giver of Life along with taking her", Bakura said, looking at Darka.

"And do you honestly think I'll just let you do that"?

They all looked at Vector who was glaring angrily at the Sages. "That hybrid is going to die today", he growled, pointing at Darka.

Nyx smirked before giving a malice and mad grin making them all gasp. "Oh just shut the hell up you emperor brat you're nothing more than a chess piece so know your place", she said evilly.

"What was that"?! Vector yelled angrily.

'Don't Vector those two are enemies you cannot defeat retreat for now', Don Thousand told him in his mind.

"What"?! Vector thought back shocked.

"Hehehehe~ I'd listen to him if I were you he knows what we're capable of", Nyx smirked.

"What the hell?! She can hear Don Thousand"?! Vector thought shocked.

Nyx only sadistically smirked as Bakura sighed and faced the others. "Listen all of you once we take Darkalicia to Astral World there is a high probability that she will longer be the Darkalicia you all know", he said.

They all grew wide eyed at this. "W-what do you mean by that"?! Yuma said shocked.

"It's just as Bakura said", Nyx said, facing them with a neutral frown.

"If you wish for her to be the one you've always known then you must come to Astral World as well".

"G-go to Astral World ourselves", Manami said shocked.

Nyx glanced at Astral and Astrana making them gasp as her eyes glowed. "But it won't be easy", she said.

"Let us go Nyx", Bakura said.

"Right", Nyx nodded.

"Wait just a minute"! Antares yelled.

Suddenly the field began to crumble. "What's happening"?! Yuma yelled.

"The field is deteriorating"! Shane yelled.

"Well that's our cue farewell folks", Nyx smirked.

"And we hope to see you in Astral World".

"Wait"! Kaito yelled.

"Darka"! Astrana shrieked.

Then the two became dark purple and marine blue lights shining as rose petals from the field spell flew up in a bright light and before they knew it they were back to the spot to where they were before to their shock. "N-no way Darka", Sirius began paling.

No… No, no", Astrana shuddered, clutching her head.

"No"!

"Astrana", Astral gasped, facing his sister.

But Astrana disappeared going to the Empress's Key as the others were in shock of what had just happened.
