Day 3: Fairytale
In most fairytales, the princess was a damsel in distress that needs rescuing from an evil king / wizard / witch / dragon / spell who cursed her / abducted her for some reason, and it is always a charming prince or a knight that comes to her rescue, and that is the end of it. Oh – also, she eventually marries and then they live "happy ever after".
Well, for Hiiragi Yuzu, things were not exactly so clean cut… Instead of a princess locked away in a castle – not that she had not more or less been in this situation less than twenty four hours earlier – she felt more like a solo, unwilling at first, not-so-secret agent on a dangerous mission who ended up being somehow accompanied and repeatedly rescued by an honest to Goodness Deus Ex Machina.
She also had to explain the situation to Uncle Yusho and Asuka-san. There is also that.
Approximately a few hours later, after Asuka-san and Uncle Yusho managed to get over their initial confusion at seeing Hugo, and had been given a complete report of how exactly the two of them had ended up being involved in the Inter-Dimensional War, they waited for the reaction of the entire Fusion Branch of the You Show Duel School.
"So you mean to tell me", started Uncle Yusho, looking tired "that you, young man, had your dear one kidnapped by another boy who looks like my son under Akaba Leo's orders…"
"My dear one?!", spluttered Hugo with a blush.
"…and somehow, your Dragon led you to the XYZ Dimension just like Smile World wrapped me here…"
"Um, yeah…", commented Hugo, not even being familiar with the card in question, much less its apparent magical properties.
"There, you ran into the Resistance, and after being tricked into dueling yet another young man who looks like Yuya, Joeri used the opportunity to abduct Ruri…"
"This is what we think.", reminded him Yuzu.
"After discovering the kidnapping, the Resistance thought that you were the one responsible. At the same time, they found out that Akaba Reiji was Akaba Leo's son, and Ute along with Kurosaki Shun went to Standard and started attacking members of LDS…".
Yuzu nodded. "However, somehow Akaba Reiji found him and he joined LDS to fight Sora…".
"Sora is a former Academia agen, correct?".
"Um. He betrayed the Academia while we were in the Synchro Dimension.".
"So you, Yuya and Noboru entered the Tournament, whch was an attempt of Akaba Reiji to gather the Lancers, and that was when you met Serena and Hugo and were wrapped to the Synchro Dimension… And Jean-Michel Roget, an Academia traitor decided to capture you as a bargaining chip, which he eventually managed, but you and Hugo were wrapped here in the Fusion Dimension, while Selena was captured by the Academia…".
"Yeah.", said Hugo. "Now we don't know where the other Lancers are supposed to be… or that creep, Joeri…". He growled the latter part.
For a few moments eeryone stayed silent.
…
"This has nothing to do with your regular "save the damsel in distress mission", does it?".
So much for a fairytale ending.
