Sorry for the long wait. I'm busy so the stories will be slow.
After hearing that Astral World is in danger, Yuma and the others are on their way to the Astral World and confront Eris. They head there in full speed as they head to the Astral World.
Astral bit his lip, as he is worried about his world and the people that lived there. Yuma felt uneasy he is pacing back and forth. Black Mist and Sota are looking at their friends' tense expressions as they waited.
"Yuma, Astral, are you two ok?" Sota ask. Yuma and Astral didn't pay attention. Sota then walked away from and sighed. "They are really worried."
"That is how they are. The Astral World is Astral's home and Yuma save their world from the Barian World and it fused with it and brought peace." Black Mist explained. "I may not be from the Astral World but I can tell the Astral World means so much for those two."
Sota can tell Black Mist is worried about them even he didn't show it. Then there is a red light and alarm and the ship went high speed.
"We are about to land to the Astral World." Astral said. The ship landed in a mysterious blue planet or world that is full of life. Sota is amazed with the Astral World.
But when he looked at the world, he got a sense of déjà vu. "Do I know this place...?" Sota whispered. Black Mist heard it and thinks that Sota knows the Astral World but Sota thinks he never been here. He remember the conversation with Sota and he told him that he will help him to find out about his past but, he hopes it doesn't lead to something big...
"We need to talk to Eliphas." Astral said. They all agree as the ship landed.
Later, Yuma and the gang arrive in the throne room. They saw Eliphas near the throne and saw Kaito and Ena next to him.
"Kaito! You are here too?" Yuma said with surprise. Kaito nodded.
"Eliphas, we got Mizael's warning." Astral said. "What is going on?"
"As you know Eris has arrived in the Astral World. The citizens saw her wondering around the city looking for something. She broken inside their homes and threat them to find something." Eliphas explain.
"What is this 'something'?" Yuma ask.
"She said it is an emblem. It is Don Thousand's emblem but it is called the 'Emblem of Chaos.'" Ena said.
"What would she need it?" Sota wonder.
"It has Don Thousand's essence and we don't know but she might try to contact his spirit with it so she can find the last thing she needs to revive Don Thousand." Eliphas said.
Yuma and the others are concerned about this.
"I just realized." Yuma remembered. "Why are Kaito and Mizael doing here in the first place?"
"Yuma...The reason I'm here is...we are trying to find out Eris' motive." Kaito said.
"Motive?" Yuma wonder.
Kaito nodded. "We want to find out why is it what she wants and why is she doing it? I ask my father and Chris if we can find out in the Astral World and have Mizael come to help me since he was previously a Barian."
"So did you find out?" Astral ask.
"No... We haven't." Mizael answered. "But maybe we can if we find out since she is here and we can find her and get some answers."
"Yeah, you are right." Eliphas agreed. "We need to find her and fast."
"So do you know where she might be to find Emblem of Chaos?" Black Mist asks.
"We are not sure but we do have a theory." Mizael said. "We think she is trying to find his home. He did live here in the city but since he was banished, he left. But we believe now that Barian World and the Astral World fused, it could be around the Astral World but we need to find it"
"We won't be able to today. It is getting late you must be exhausted." Ena said.
Eliphas nodded. "We will search tomorrow till then you kids need you're rest." Eliphas said. Yuma sighed. He doesn't want to waste anytime but he feels tired after the getting the Swirling Wind. "Okay."
Later, Yuma and Sota are sleeping in the same room. Yuma is in deep thought as he looked in the ceiling. Yuma sighed as he waits impatiently for the day to be morning so they can search for Eris.
"Yuma...Are you awake?" Sota whispered. Yuma heard Sota. "What is wrong?" Yuma ask.
"I just...want to thank you for helping me and Black Mist back as partners." Sota said.
Yuma smiled. "No problem but it is you're hearts that want to make up for that silly fight. So did Black Mist said you are his friend."
"No. We are partners." Sota pointed.
"...Is that Black Mist really thinks?" Yuma wonder. "Yes." Sota said.
"I don't think so. Maybe he is just not seeing it at less not yet. He will one day." Yuma said. "I hope so." Sota said.
The boys talked until they fell asleep.
The next morning, Yuma and the gang are ready to search for Eris. The first thing that they did is search is looking at the city and still have no lucky and even ask the civilians that live there and haven't seen her after Yuma and the others came.
Then Yuma and the gang are gathering in one place as they talk what is going on.
"Have any luck?" Dumon ask.
"No, I think Eris is trying things quietly since she must sense we are here." Mizael said.
"Do this world have different places beside here?" Black Mist asks.
"Yes, we do. They are different places where a few Astrals and Barians decide to live together." Astral answered.
"We should try there since we never know." Kaito said. With that they agreed to look in different places. They went to the Different Dimension Airship.
For a few hours, they have finally arrived at the other side. They saw a similar to Astral's but smaller. They landed and saw some kids playing in the beach.
There is a girl and boy playing. The boy spotted them and smiled and ran towards Astral.
"Hi, Astral." The Astral boy said. Yuma think he knew him before. Yes, he is the first person he healed with his powers.
"Hi, Elliot. It has been a long time." Astral said with a small smile. Elliot nodded. "What are you doing here?"
The boy looked at the girl. "I made a new friend. Her name is Iris." Alec said. "I came over and play with her."
"That is great." Astral said.
"What are you doing here?" Alec asks.
"We are looking for...treasure..." Astral answered awkward. "Neat." Elliot said with an innocent voice. They don't want him to worry so they lied.
"We should get to searching." Mizael said. They agreed. "Yuma, you and Astral the bottom of the city. I will go with Dumon and Kaito to search on the tall towers and Sota, you and Black Mist can look at the beaches."
"Okay, we will find Eris and find the Emblem of Chaos before she does." Sota said with a vow.
The gang spilt up and went their way through the land to search for the Emblem of Chaos and Eris. Yuma and Astral are looking endless and went to dead ends. Kaito and his group are talking to the citizens for some clues and look in every high towers but no luck.
Meanwhile, Sota and Black Mist are searching in every spot in the land.
"AHHHG! There is nothing here! Nothing but sand!" Black Mist complains. He then lay flat in the sand. "HAHE! I give up!" Black Mist said in a flat voice. Sota sat down next to him. "We should take a break."
They look at the mystic view of the Astral World. Now that Black Mist look at this place he can't believe that in the past that he was about to destroy this place. There is a sting in his heart.
"I can't believe there is such a world here..." Black Mist whispered. Sota know that Black Mist cause mischief to Yuma and his friends to get to them and hurt the Astral World. Sota put his hand on his shoulder.
Black Mist looked. "Don't worry to much. It is in the past." Sota said. Black Mist think Sota is naive and he is planning to get Astral's body once he is free. Sota and Black Mist then heard children laughing and saw Elliot and Iris playing in the sand making something that looks like a sand castle.
The kids are covered to head to toe full of sand. Iris then made eye contact to Sota and Black Mist and ran to them.
"Hey, do you two want to make a sand castle with us?" Iris asks.
"Umm...We try to find something." Black Mist refused. Iris' eyes turn watery. Sota then feel the guilt inside when he saw those eyes
"But I thought that we could have fun..." Iris said in pure, cute eyes.
"I'm sorry but-" Black Mist try to say something but Sota covers Black Mist's mouth. "Of course we will." Sota interrupted fast. Iris' watery eyes are gone and turn into happy eyes. "Thank you. Come on let's play." Iris said as she went back to her sand castle.
"Why did you say no?" Black Mist asks Sota. Sota avoid Black Mist's eyes and has a guilt look on his face. "I just don't want to disappoint a little child." Sota pointed.
Black Mist sighed, "You are just a softie when it comes to kids since you are a big brother."
"Shut up." Sota hissed. Sota and Black Mist went next to the kids and start making their sand castle. They try to make their castle but compare to the kid's...
"Wow, that is a sloppy job." Elliot pointed.
"Thanks, I aware..." Sota grumbled. "I know your castle is better than mine."
The kids' sand castle is decent but it is surround by cute, little flowers.
"Who picked the flowers?" Black Mist asked. Iris raises her hand. "It is unique." Black Mist said.
Sota elbow him. " Just admit it, you think it is cute." Sota said with a grin. Black Mist's face turn pink when Sota knows that he is right. Sota and the kids laughed.
Then there was a shake in ground and it shook the sand castles down.
"Uh...Our castles are gone." Iris said sadly. Sota and Black Mist looked at the beach and notice that is not a normal shake.
"Do you sense it?" Sota ask Black Mist. Black Mist senses too and knows the energy. They turn to the ocean and saw something rising out of the water. It was Eris!
"Eris!" Sota yelled with angry. Black Mist's face frown as they face her. "Kids, you should hide." Black Mist instructed. Iris and Elliot nodded and hide behind some laugh rocks.
"Hello, Black Mist, are you being a good boy." Eris mocks Black Mist. "I suppose that you are here because of your pesky friends." Eris said.
"That's right. We are not going to let you get the emblem." Sota said with fiery in his eyes. Eris has a smile. "I will never let it fail because I am chosen to help Master Don Thousand." Eris said.
"Master?" Black Mist wonder. 'Why did she call her master?' Black Mist thinks that she does have a motive like Mizael said.
"I can sense that your friends are here plus..." Eris smiled with a sick smile. "You have foolishly have lead me to the next former Barians."
Sota knew that she is after the former Barians' blood and it is fact that the two are here. Meaning if she gets them that means that she is close to Don Thousand's resurrection.
Sota brought out his monster White Maiden Sorceress "I will stop you! Right here! Right Now!" Sota shouted. Sota then brought out a magic card "I use my magic card, Heaven Weapons." The card shined and White Maiden Sorceress is equipped with a sword and a shield. "Attack White Maiden Sorceress."
She holds her sword and attacked Eris. Eris then grabbed a card and a witch with purple witch outfit with a dark look on her face appeared. A witch attacked her and got White Maiden Sorceress away from "Attack Poison Witch!" Eris commanded. The witch readies her wand and a puff of purple smoke reached White Maiden Sorceress.
"White Maiden!" Sota yelled in concerned. She collapsed in the ground and looks like she is having a hard time to breath.
"What's wrong?" Sota wonder.
"This monster's attack can poison your monster making them hard to move." Eris explains.
White Maiden Sorceress can't move and looks like she is in pain.
"Number 96, come out!" Black Mist said. He brought out his Number. "Use Shadow Gain!" Black Mist yelled. Number 96 use Shadow Gain and got stronger. "Attack that witch!" Black Mist commands. Number 96 attacks the witch. She uses a barrier found and knocks Number 96 away.
"What is going on?" Black Mist wondered. Eris starts to chuckle. "This monster the more her attack point decrease, the defense increase. But there is another effect when that happens." Eris said. "Exploded!" The witch's wand shined and releases the energy.
The kids heard the explosion and took cover and felt the impact. When it was over, Iris and Alec looked and saw Sota, Black Mist and their monsters collapsed. Number 96 and White Maiden Sorceress took critical damage. Black Mist got up and holds his arm in pain.
"No way..." Black Mist said with disbelief. He saw his partner in the ground not getting up. "Sota! Kid! Are you alright?" Black Mist said as he shakes Sota but he is still unconscious.
"Black Mist! Sota! Are you okay?" Iris yelled to see if they are okay. Eris saw the kids. "Dark Witch, kill them." Eris commanded. The witch swing her wand and a beam was fired and went towards the kids. They closed their eyes and scream.
"Moon Barrier!" A monster went in front of the kids and block the attack. It was Hope!
Yuma and Astral arrive including Kaito and the former Barians. Eris' face has anger in her face. "Predictable. You and your little friends always save your skin." Eris said with annoyance. "Well, I guess that I have to get rid of you pests." Eris said. "Dark Witch, Desto-" but she was cut off.
Eris!
Eris stops his attack.
Everyone is wondering what is going on and why she stops her attack.
Eris, my child, I am glad that you are okay after all those years.
"Yes, me and my people want revenge on the Astral World that ruined our people." Eris said. Astral and the gang heard what Eris said.
"Whom is she talking to?" Yuma wonder.
"Who indeed." Astral 'Who could it be?' Astral is thinking "Is it!" Astral is having a good idea who it is.
Eris, the essence of my power is close. Go to the sea and it will appear soon.
Eris looked at the others. "You are lucky that I am busy. I will end you pests and get your blood later." Eris said. She called her monster and disappeared.
Yuma and Astral are took a deep breath. "What is that about?" Yuma wondered.
"I think that was Don Thousand that she is talking to. He used telepathy."
"Man, that means that the Emblem of Chaos is close by somewhere." Yuma said uneasily. They knew that it is a race against time to find the Emblem before Eris does.
"Sota! Sota!" Black Mist is trying to wake up the unconscious Sota. Sota slowly open his eyes.
"What happen?! Where's Eris!?" Sota wonder as he looked around.
"She left..." Black Mist answered.
Sota got up. "Let's go after her!" Yuma step in. "We know, but we don't know where she might be." Yuma explain. The others are in a stump on where is part of Don Thousand is and Eris looks like she is in the upper hand.
"I have no idea where we should search next." Dumon said.
"Yeah..." Yuma and the others are in a stump." Sota looked at the ocean and thought of something but, it is crazy.
"Maybe, it might be near the ocean not on land." Sota said. Everyone is confused on what is he thinking.
"Mmm...It could be a possibility after all we did went under few times in the past." Astral said. "Okay, everyone let's move and search in the sea." Astral said. Everyone followed Astral's orders and the ship teleports everyone on board.
Elliot and Iris are curious on what is going on so they jumped in without them seeing them and went on the cockpit. Then hide at the back of the ship where no one can see them.
Later, Yuma and the others are still looking for Don Thousand's base in the ocean.
"Man, there is nothing but sea." Yuma said. "It will be hard if we stay like this."
Astral agrees they have been at this for hours and they still can't find it.
"We might have to split up." Dumon said.
"Yes, that is probably the best way." Astral said. " Black Mist, and Sota, you guys are stay at the ship."
"What? Why!" Sota said.
"Don't ask why just do it." Yuma said. Sota grumbled about it.
"Let's get going." Astral said. Mizael and Dumon went to the South riding their Numbers. Yuma used Rainbow Kuriboh in boat form and went to the West. Last, Kaito and the others flew to the East to start looking.
Later, there is still no clue where it is.
"There is nothing in the East. We should take the North." Kaito said.
"Agreed." Black Mist answered. Sota in the other hand is bored and impatient.
"Guys, I am going to look around for a bit." Sota said as he went to the back of the ship.
Sota went to the back and saw the gears turning like inside a clock. He then heard some little voices and checked where the voices come from. He saw two familiar kids.
"Maybe this is a bad idea." Iris sobs. Elliot is comfort her as she started crying. "Don't worry we will be fine." Alec said with a gentle voice.
"What are you doing here?" The kids looked and saw Sota looking at them. They saw he is angry.
"WHAT ARE YOU KIDS DOING HERE!?" Sota yelled as he is scolded them.
"We wanted to know what you are doing so we went on board." Elliot explains.
"That gives you no right to come here!" Sota shouted as he yelled. His yelling is being the kids into tears.
"Sorry..." Sota said as he kneels down and rub their heads. "I just don't want you two hurt." The kids calmed down as they wipe their tears.
"Sota, what is all that yelling?" Kaito said as he arrived with Black Mist. Kaito is stunned that he saw the kids. "Are those kids stowaways?"
"It looks like it." Black Mist said calmly. Kaito sighed. "We have to make a side trip and drop them off." Kaito said.
"Yeah, that's good." Sota said. Just when they are about to leave the ship shakes and crashed in the ocean. The gears of the ship stopped and the ship's light turn off.
"What is going on?" Black Mist is wondering.
"I'm not sure. We should check the ship." Kaito suggested. They went to the ship and see that the ship has gone dark. Kaito type on the buttons and pull levers to get the ship moving but nothing works.
"This isn't good." Kaito said. Then there was a thud and everyone as they heard it.
"I think it is coming outside." Black Mist said. The door banged like something or someone is trying to get in. They jumped when they heard it.
Then the door busted open and black slime came through the door and went towards the gang.
"Everyone get to the back of the ship." Kaito yelled. Kaito and the others went at the back so they can escape. Iris trip and fell. The slime got her leg and brag her towards it and disappeared.
"Iris!" Elliot shouted as he saw his friend taken by the slime. She sinks in the slime and disappeared.
"Elliot, get out of there." Black Mist warned.
"What? AHH!" Elliot yelled. It was too late the black slime got Elliot too.
"Oh-no." Sota whispered.
"Come on, we can't get captured!" Kaito said. Kaito, Black Mist and Sota ran at the back but then, the slime is at the other side.
"Oh come on!" Black Mist yelled in frustration.
Sota looked for another way and the only thing he can think of is going through the gears of the ship. "Let's head there!" Sota said. They agreed and started to climb. The slime follows them and it grabs Kaito. Kaito struggles to get free but, got caught.
"Not Kaito too." Sota said in horror.
"Sota, now is not the time! We have to get away." Black Mist tries to reason him. Sota know that Black Mist is right. They have to get away. They started climbing until they are outside at the top of the ship. They try to keep going and saw the black slime closing in on them.
"We got to get to the ocean." Black Mist said. Sota is about to jump until he heard a yelp. Sota looked back and saw Black Mist got caught and the slime grab his leg. Sota went back and grab Black Mist's arm and try to pull him off. He got Black Mist and saw the slime went like a huge wave and try to get them.
Sota then pushed Black Mist out of the way and got away. But Black Mist saw Sota got caught and disappeared in slime. "Sota!" Black Mist shouted. He went after the slime until the slime jumped to the ocean and disappeared.
Black Mist looked and sees if he can find them but he can't... Sota and the others got caught and disappeared.
"Sota...Everyone..."Black Mist whispered as he looked in the ocean.
