Elsewhere...
" I need to get to him ! " , Ruka told the nurse . " Despite , your miraculous recovery we can't just let you out of the hospital yet . The doctors must check just in case . " , the nurse told her then leaving .
Ruka lowered her head trying to think of a way out as she glanced at Rua beside her . " Stupid nurse , she doesn't get it ! " , Rua complained . " You shouldn't say that Rua she's just doing her job . " , Ruka scolded her twin . " But , she's stopping you from helping Yugo ! Why I outta if I could get out of theses stupid bandages-" , Rua mumbled . Ruka sighed at her brothers actions as she looked under her covers at the glowing mark on her arm .
" I can hear it , from your monsters your not yourself right now . If what Truka and Sacred Fairy Dragon said is true..." , her mind mulled over these thoughts .
" If only she could find a way out of here... " , she thought to herself .
In Rin's cell?room?...
The spirit of Ray pondered what exactly to do right now . She was absolutely peeved at her father for his actions in the name of resurrecting her . Not only that 3/4 of the the girls she had split herself in to , to stop Zarc are in his custody . And away from Zarc's counterparts to fulfill their purposes .
She watched as Rin banged on her door angrily for the thousandth time . Screaming at her guard to let her out . If Ray could say something her counterparts definitely inherited from her it was stubbornness . Even , Ruri was acting super rebellious in face of being captive by her enemy . Serena as usual was still trying to sneak away from Academia to prove herself to Leo . Though , was foiled once again by Barrett .
She jumped as she felt something happening in Synchro . Specifically having to do with Zarc's Synchro counterpart . To say she was surprised was in understatement considering the Crimson Dragon's interference .
Speaking of the Crimson Dragon . She encountered the red dragon asking for a bit of help . Understanding , she used some of the little power she still has by herself . She couldn't exactly get Ruka to the Synchro counterparts exact location , but it was close . With another signer there it should be able to restrain Zarc's presence once more .
Back to Ruka and Rua
" HIIEEEEE ?! RUKA ?! " , Ruka let out a shocked screech as her sister suddenly teleported .
" If you can scream like that maybe you are-" , the nurse walked in and was shocked at the girl's disappearance .
" Fine..." , she mumbled . She then proceeded to put away her coffee .
Back to the duel
" Well , go on then . " , ' Yugo ' ended his turn . Aki put on her game face seeing she had underestimated the boy .
" I draw ! I activate Seed of Deception to special summon Dark Verger from my hand . " , Aki started .
" Now , I tribute my token and Dark Verger to summon Tytannial , Princess of Camellias ! " , Aki continued .
" Now , I attack your Kendama with Tytannial ! " , She declared . " I activate Burning Sonic ! " , ' Yugo ' countered . " Not so fast ! I activate Tytannial's effect tributing my Evil Thorn to negate your effect ! " , Aki countered . " This is the end ! " , Aki declared .
Sayer sung Aki's praises for defeating the berserk boy . Though , the smoke cleared and their jaws dropped .
He was perfectly fine and his life points were untouched as well his monster was still alive . " I activated the effect of Three Eyed Dice from my graveyard by banishing it I negated your attack . " , ' Yugo ' explained laughing a bit at the dumb looks on their faces .
Zanzo just whistled .
" I'll just beat you next turn then . I set two cards face down and end my turn . " , Aki ended her turn .
" Great now with no other plant monsters..." , he thought as he drew his card .
" First , I'll banish Den Daiko Duke from my graveyard to resurrect Gum Prize . " , he started .
" He sure likes banishing his cards . " , Zanzo quipped . Sayer thought about Zanzo's words as the duel continued .
" I tune Gum Prize and Kendama ! Spread those wondrous and beautiful wings, and strike down your enemies at the speed of light! Synchro Summon! Appear now! Level 7! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon ! " , ' Yugo ' summoned his ace monster . It let out a roar as if challenging Aki's monster .
" There's absolutely no way your getting another monster with that effect . " , Aki stated . " You sure about that human , your sure that's a fact . " , he countered as against all odds he sent another Three Eyed Dice from the top of his deck .
" Is your deck all monsters !? " , Aki replied in disbelief . What was this bullshit ? This was ridiculous ?
'Yugo' chuckled at that . " I guess the card spirits just like me . " , he replied . " The spirits..." , Aki mumbled looking at her mark .
" Now , Clear Wing's attack goes from 2500 to 3500 ! Now destroy Tytannial my servant ! Whirlwind Helldive Slasher ! " , he order his dragon .
Clear Wing created a whirlwind around herself before ramming into the plant . Compared to the destruction from this monster's his last monster looked like a pushover . The entire roof flew off in wake of the Synchro dragon's might .
They all looked in surprise by the difference as ' Yugo 'smirked .
Aki LP 1700-1000
" I activate Sinister Seeds ! I gain a token for each 500 damage I'm dealt by your attack ! " , Aki activated one of her traps .
" USELESS ! Your done anyway don't you remember ? Chanbara can attack twice ! " , he reminded her .
Her token was destroyed and Chanbara went in to attack her directly .
" AKI ! " , Sayer commanded . " I activate Negate Attack ! Stopping Chanbara in its tracks ! " , Aki countered .
" I set one card face down , looks like your safe for now . But , not for long give me your best before I annihilate you . " , he ended his turn once more .
Aki started her turn . " I draw , now I summon Copy Plant . I activate it's effect coping Chanbara's level ! Next , I activate Dark Verger's effect from my graveyard . It special summons itself due to me having a tuner ! Now I tune Copy Plant and Dark Verger ! Chilling flames engulf the entire world. Pitch-dark flower, set into bloom! Synchro Summon! Appear now, Black Rose Dragon!" , she summoned her ace .
The two Synchro dragons roared at each other once more . As their marks glows became brighter .
" Now , I activate Apocalypse Rose's effect ! Rose Apocalypse ! All cards on the field are destroyed ! " , Aki declared . " Not so fast ! I activate Clear Wing's effect negating your monster's effect destroying it ! " , ' Yugo ' stopped her .
" DIOCRAMIC MIRROR ! " , A light came from his dragon's wings destroying the other dragon .
" Now , she gains your monsters attack ! Her attack is now 5900 , it's like your asking for death ! " , ' Yugo ' mocked .
" I activate my other trap , Overdoom Line ! Resurrecting my dragon with 1000 extra attack ! " , Aki continued .
" What's the point ? You can't beat Clear Wing ? " , he gloated . " Oh yeah , due to Apocalypse Rose's effect she gains 500 attack for each plant type monster in my graveyard raising it to equal your dragon . Now , I attack your Chanbara ending this duel ! " , Aki declared . " Did you forget about my second Three Eyed Dice ? I banish it negating your attack ! I told you it was useless ! " , he countered once more .
" Now , Apocalypse Rose is destroyed due to my trap's effect . I use Monster reborn to bring it right back ! I set a card face down and end my turn . " , Aki ended her turn .
" Now , it's my-" , he grabbed his mark as the pain increased . The source of it running from Arcadia members over to his side .
" YUGO ! " , Ruka looked at him as he gazed at her in surprise . " Ruka...? " , he mumbled as the glow in his eyes became dimmer . " That's right , it's me Yugo ! You have to snap out of it ! " , he clutched his head as their marks all resonated . He screamed in pain as the dark presence receded .
He blinked as his eyes were now normal looking at his surroundings in confusion . " Where am I ? " , he questioned not remembering his actions .
" You don't remember ? " , Aki questioned . " The dark shadow has receded . " , Zanzo told them .
" Dark shadow ? What the hell are you talking about ? " , the real Yugo questioned . Meanwhile , Sayer was scheming as the conversation unfolded .
" You destroyed much of our base and challenged me to a duel . You really can't recall any of that ? " , she questioned further . " No ." , he answered simply . " Enough of that how , how are you here Ruka ? " , he turned to the little girl beside him . " It's a long story , but something happened to you and I came to help . Besides we need to get out of here , we can talk later . " , Ruka informed the older duelist . He looked at Ruka still in disbelief before turning to Aki .
He cracked his knuckles with his trademark dumb grin . " Fine , then I just have to beat this chick and her other goons ! " , Aki looked in disbelief as the air around him completely changed in a instant .
He looked at the status of the duel to see what was going on . Jumping at her Apocalypse Rose Dragon's 4900 attack . " Well , nothing we can't handle right Clear Wing ! " , he gestured his ace . " That's right , Yugo . That rose dragon bimbo has nothing on me ! " , Clear Wing spoke much to the Arcadia members shock . Apocalypse Rose roared angrily at Clear Wing in response . Almost as if was saying ' Who are you calling a bimbo ! ' .
" You can talk ?! " , Aki looked surprised for the thousandth time today .
" Considering all the she pronouns he's been using for his dragon looks like their both girls . CAT FIGHT ! Wait , I guess it be dragon fight in this case . " , Zanzo said .
Aki just gave Zanzo a ' really dude ' look and returned to the duel .
" I summon Speedroid Red Eyed Dice and tune it with Clear Wing ! " , Yugo started .
" At least it's not that annoying Gum Prize again . " , Aki thought to herself .
" Shine wings that store holy light , and strike down your enemies with its radiance ! Synchro Summon ! Come forth ! Level 8 ! Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon ! " , Ruka looked in amazement at Clear Wing's upgraded form . " Yugo , really just keeps getting stronger . " , Ruka thought . Ever since they first met he has always felt something special about him . Crystal Wing roared almost taughtingly at Apocalypse Rose much to it's chagrin .
" Let's end this girl ! CRYSTALLIOS EDGE OF GALE ! " , Yugo declares .
" Did you really check the status Crystal Wing is too weak ! " , Aki countered . " Crystal Wing's effect activated upon fighting a monster that's level 5 of higher ! She gains your monsters attack ! " , Yugo informed her .
" WHAT !? " , Aki and others gasped . Crystal Wing plowed through Apocalypse Rose ending the duel .
Aki LP 1000- 0
Yugo win ! The duel disk displayed the results as Yugo grabbed Ruka and mounted Crystal Wing .
" SEE YA LATER LOSERS ! " , Yugo waved goodbye on Crystal Wing as they looked for his d-wheel in the Arcadia headquarters . They found it and Crystal Wing grabbed it .
Arcadia shook once more in the mighty dragon's wake as Aki protected all the people she could . Though , Zanzo was not so lucky .
Yugo and Ruka flew back to Yugo's apartment unaware of this . They landed and Yugo kept Ruka close to make sure she was safe . After all , there were many extremists amongst the commons . Who definitely wouldn't take kindly to a top in their slums .
He was about to walk in to repair his d wheel as he heard his name .
" Yugo . " , it was none other than Crow Hogan . He turned to Crow in surprise as he approached him . He noticed him looking at him closely for a few moments before sighing . " Rin . " , he said .
" Rin ? What about Rin ? " , his eyes suddenly widened as he realized Rin was probably going to give him a earful for being gone for who knows how long he was captive . " She was kidnapped . " , Crow told him as Yugo turned serious . " WHAT ! WHO'S THE BASTARD I'LL BEAT THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF HIM ! " , Yugo responded full of angry and worry . Crow expected this reaction thinking ' Typical Yugo ' . Having long gotten used to the younger boy's hotheadedness .
" It was strange I caught a glimpse of the dude before he disappeared . And... " , Crow started .
" AND WHAT !? " , Yugo asked in anticipation .
" He shared the same face as you "
Chapter end
And so the classic tale begins . I thought about making the Arcadia thing longer , but I honestly just wanted to move the plot along . Rather than pad it out . Anyway this chapter is a bit longer as I noticed the other one was a bit short . The fun has only just begun !
