bopdog111: Hey guys. One-Hundred Eyed Dragon was finally defeated.
Ulrich362: True, and Sly is back... though he's probably going to need some time wrap his head around what's happened.
bopdog111: Yep.
Ulrich362: So what next?
bopdog111: Time for Ace, Mason, Amanda, and more OCs to have time together.
Ulrich362: Makes sense to me. Enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V or Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS but we own the OCs!
"They'll be ok, right?" Alex asked nervously in the hospital waiting room.
"Yeah." Rin answered hugging her.
'I hope.' Yugo thought uncertainly glancing down the hall where Yuya, Zuzu, Stacy, Henrietta, and Leo Akaba were all in really bad shape from everything that had happened.
Amanda in Sarah's arms asked worried, "Are Grandpa, and Grandma okay?"
"I... don't know. If daddy and I had been here we might have been able to do something but..." Sarah started only to look down and just hug Amanda.
Amanda hugged her mother back.
"Do we not get to be happy?" Ace asked sadly.
"Why does this have to happen?" Yuto asked angirly.
"I wish I could answer that." Celina frowned. "But I don't think any of us know."
Mason stayed quiet.
"Yuto, Lulu, Terri do you three have a minute?" Declan inquired.
The Xyz Family turned before walking over.
"This was just the beginning, but we need to be prepared. What do you know about this Dark Mist?" Declan asked them.
"From Astral we heard that he is one of the most deadliest foes he, and Yuma faced." Yuto answered. "He proclaimed himself as a God."
Declan just frowned hearing that. "In other words the number of people who end up caught in the crossfire will inevitably increase."
"But their is one thing weird." Terri admitted pulling out the Astral Force Rank-Up Card he gave her saying, "Why did he give me this?"
"Maybe he's overly confident?" Lulu guessed.
"I better talk to Yuma, and Astral if their okay." Terri told them.
"Yeah, we all should." Yuto nodded.
Casey hold Riley's hand, and said "One-Hundred Eyed Dragon is gone... But he's the first... And the weakest. The Doktor, and Dark Mist is back with several others along with this Gus, One-Hundred Eyed Dragon mentioned before Alex destroyed him."
Riley swallowed nervously hearing that before her eyes widened in fear and she started trembling.
"Riley sweetie?" Karen asked seeing this.
Casey suddenly sensed incredible fear coming from Riley and it was only growing.
"Riley? What's wrong?" Casey asked surprised.
Yuri and Yugo glanced over before Yugo's eyes widened.
"Wait a second, the Doktor is back!" Yugo cried.
"So... Who's gonna break the news to Mir?" Lilly asked nervously.
Ace and I can tell her." Dawn mentioned only for Yuri's eyes to darken.
"That will not happen." Yuri stated coldly.
"Yuri?" Zarc asked.
"Back in the Synchro Dimension, to try and defeat Lilly, Roget implanted a Parasite in Riley's brain. Fortunately it didn't work, but the Doktor might try it again, and if Rin and Lulu failed he's probably going to try the next best thing... or people in this case." Yuri told him. "Our kids."
Hearing that Sarah told him holding Amanda tight, "There's no way I'm letting that creep touch my daughter."
"Or my kids for the matter." Ray agreed holding her arms around Dawn, and Ace.
Riley collapsed and just continued trembling in fear. Casey stayed with her, and said "If I had too I have to confront the Doktor myself, and take him down."
"It probably doesn't help she had to be shot to get it out of her head last time." Yugo frowned. "But if any of us get near him we'll just get one of those bugs in our head."
Lance emerged as he said, "Well don't worry. The Parasites are his creations right? Me, and the fellow Ignis will hack into their network, and force them to combat their creator during their genetic making."
"Alright, then in the meantime we should wait for the others to get back on their feet." Rin mentioned. "Akiza's helping Leo back in the Synchro Dimension but we need to be on our guard."
Mason asked Ray, "Mrs. Akaba... Can Ace, and Amanda stay over with me, and Bonnie so we can keep them safe?"
Ray blinked in surprise before turning to her son and niece. They looked at each other before Ace said, "Yeah... Mason has an Ignis so he can protect us from the Parasites."
Declan walked over to Amanda. "What do you think baby girl?"
Amanda looked worried before nodding, "Yeah... I don't want to be mean."
He nodded and gave her a hug. "Your mother and I will keep our eyes open and you'll be with friends. Just promise if you get scared at all you call like we taught you ok?"
Amanda nodded hugging her father back.
Later at the Livingstone home...
Mason entered with Ace holding Amanda's hand as he called, "Bonnie! We're home!"
"Are they doing okay Macy?" Bonnie asked walking in, and looked surprised seeing the new arrivals "Ace, Amanda?"
"Um... hi miss Bonnie." Ace said shyly before Mason explained what happened.
Bonnie looked shocked at this, "Oh my gosh... That man is insane in the mind!"
"Tell me about it." Lance agreed nodding. "But with me around those Parasites wouldn't come close."
"Hopefully if you remember." Bonnie told him making him slump. "Anyway you two are welcome to stay as long as you like."
Amanda looked around before turning to Bonnie. "Where's your mommy and daddy?"
"Their out." Bonnie answered. "They go to business nearly everyday but always rejoin us in the evening. But they called saying their working late tonight."
"Um... sorry we came so unexpectedly." Ace apologized.
"No. In fact your the first that done that today." Bonnie admitted.
Ace nodded at that. "Is there anything I can do to help out while we're here?"
"Well I don't have anything in mind. Let me see if she does." Bonnie answered. "Amy!"
Ace's eyes widened in shock. "Huh... what?"
What walked down the stairs was Amy Masters who they haven't seen since Ace's victory against Ernesto. Ace frowned seeing her and walked into another room while leaving a paper on a small table.
"Ace? Where you going?" Mason asked seeing this.
He didn't say anything.
"Might be from when he fainted after his victory from Ernesto." Lance guessed.
Mason frowned and nodded.
(A/N (Ulrich362): Ace is shy, he feels he made everyone mad back then because he fainted and they had to worry about him instead of getting to have fun at the park.)
"Yes Bonnie?" Amy asked her.
Bonnie answered, "Well... Ace wanted to see if he can help us out while he's here but he walked somewhere else."
"Hi." Amanda smiled seeing her.
Amy looked as she smiled, and waved "Hi."
Mason asked her, "Amy listen. Ace think your mad at him when he fainted. He hates being in crowds."
"Huh, I was scared something happened. We all got back and you two were gone." Amy told him. "Anyway, tell him not to worry and everybody would love to hang out again. That was awesome."
Mason nodded at this. "Amanda stay with Bonnie for a bit okay? I need to talk with Ace."
Amanda nodded before walking over to Bonnie and smiling.
Mason walked as Amy noticed the paper Ace left.
Mason found Ace, and said, "Ace?"
He was sitting down and looked sad. Mason walked, and patted his back. "It's okay Ace. She isn't mad."
Ace blinked in surprise. "I upset everyone though."
"They were only worried about you." Mason answered. "Amy said not to worry, and that they would love to hang out with us again."
Ace started tearing up hearing that. Mason hugged him. Ace hugged him back.
"Want me to get her here?" Mason asked.
"Yeah, I hope we can still be friends." Ace answered.
"We already are." Mason smiled. "Amy!"
She walked in and immediately hugged Ace. "Thank you!"
Ace looked surprised.
"You're the best Ace." Amy smiled happily.
"Uh... Why?" Ace blushed.
"The cards are perfect. I love them both." Amy answered. "Oh yeah, everybody wanted to ask if you'd want to play Freeze Tag sometime."
Ace widen his eyes knowing that.
"Ah young love." Lance grinned.
Ace blushed at that. "Um... we're just friends?"
"Not by the blushing face, and the way your treating her." Lance grinned.
Ace just frowned. "I don't want to be in love though, it's grody."
"Well we will see what happens in the future." Mason told him.
"True." Lance agreed nodding.
"Hey maybe you guys like a bite?" Mason asked.
They nodded but Ace looked uncertain.
"Can I help?" Amanda asked him as she walked in with Bonnie.
"Sorry little sweetcake." Bonnie smiled. "But you can't. You need to be more older to do that. Like saying Ace's age."
Amanda pouted before nodding. "Ok. Grandma and grandpa will be better right?"
"I'm sure they'll be okay." Bonnie smiled. "We gotta look out for each other, and remind Lance to keep his defenses up."
Amanda nodded at that before looking down shyly. "Um... miss Bonnie?"
"Yeah?" Bonnie asked.
"Can we play before dinner like I do with mommy?" Amanda asked. "I brought my cards."
"Hmm. Macy?" Bonnie turned to her brother who nodded.
"Don't worry. I got it taken care of." Mason smiled.
"Why is she so nice to everyone except me." Lance whispered in annoyance.
"Because of your behavior, and tricks." Bonnie told him sternly revealing she heard him.
Lance flinched at that before retreating into Mason's duel disc.
"You know Bonnie maybe you should at least cut Lance some slack?" Mason asked her.
Bonnie answered, "Well even I do like him he does need to watch how he acts."
Turning to Amanda she smiled, "Sorry for that. Let's get started."
Amanda smiled and nodded. "Ok."
While they get set Mason walked to the fridge to make dinner.
"You need any help?" Amy asked.
"Please." Mason answered. "Sometimes making dinner by myself ends in disaster."
Amy smiled before they walked into the kitchen. Ace watched on at this wondering what to do now.
"Big brother?" Amanda asked looking at him.
"Big brother?" Bonnie asked confused. "Isn't he your cousin?"
"Yeah, but with how crazy our family is Amanda calls me big brother sometimes." Ace explained. "I don't really mind."
Bonnie nodded at that one.
'I just hope everything gets to be ok.' Ace thought.
"Okay Amanda. Tell me how much do you know about Duel Monsters?" Bonnie smiled to her.
"A lot." Amanda smiled. "Mommy and daddy taught me."
"Well my Dad told me once is to not judge your opponents by how they look." Bonnie told her. "You never know they have surprises."
Amanda giggled at that.
"Well you ready?" Bonnie smiled.
"Yeah, I am." Amanda nodded.
"Okay then get ready." Bonnie grinned.
"I am." Amanda smiled.
Bonnie got ready. Ace just smiled before walking over to help Mason and Amy in the kitchen. Mason pulled out some Chicken Lunch Meat from the fridge as he asked Ace, "You, and Amanda like meat right? Sis is actually a vegan."
"Yeah, we do." Ace nodded.
Mason nodded hearing that.
"I thought I could help you guys with the food while Amanda and Bonnie have their match." Ace explained.
"Okay." Mason smiled to him. "The more, the merrier no?"
"Makes sense to me." Amy smiled.
Ace and Amy both nodded at that.
Meanwhile...
"Can I go first?" Amanda asked.
"Sure." Bonnie smiled.
"DUEL!"

"Huh. Drew 3 new cards. Did Ace made you that deck?" Bonnie asked.
"Yeah, big brother made it like daddy's." Amanda smiled. "It's not really the same but it's like his and aunt Riley's."
"Okay." Bonnie nodded.

Amanda nodded before giggling. "Miss Bonnie, can I ask you something?"
"Yeah?" Bonnie asked.
"If I marry Mason we'll be a big family right?" Amanda asked. "He's really nice and big brother is his friend too. Is that ok?"
Bonnie looked surprised hearing that before asking, "How do you know that?"
"Mommy and daddy love each other a lot, and all my big sisters are super happy and mommy said when people get married their families get bigger and happier." Amanda answered. "I want everybody to be happy."
"Well uh listen what age are you?" Bonnie asked her.
Amanda blinked before putting her cards down and counting on her fingers before holding up three. "This many... I think."
"Well listen marriage is more then you think." Bonnie told her.
Amanda looked at her in confusion before smiling. "Oh, ok. I'll ask mommy when I get home. Right now I want to play with you since we're friends."
Bonnie nodded before saying, "Well next up is playing the field spell, Gyrus Heaven."
At that the angelic kingdom appeared around them.

"I place 2 cards, and end my turn." Bonnie ended. "Gyrus Heaven gives me 500 Life Points for every Gyrus on my field."
She glowed at this. (Bonnie: 4500)
Bonnie: 4500
Amanda: 4000
Amanda 2nd Turn:
"I summon another A/A Elven Hunter in attack mode." Amanda smiled drawing three more cards. "Now, I... oh yeah, are we playing using big brother's rules?"
"You mean Master Duel setting?" Bonnie asked.

"Ok." Amanda giggled.
"And now appear the Circuit of the Nexus!" Bonnie called as the circuit appeared.
"So pretty." Amanda smiled.
"The summoning conditions are two Gyrus monsters! I set Angel, and Gladiator in the Link Markers!"

"Maybe take it a little easy on her?" Lance mentioned quietly so Amanda couldn't hear. "Oh, and so far so good everything's ok with the anti parasite programs."
"I'm already taking an easy." Bonnie replied.
Lance just shrugged before going back into her duel disc.
"Alright now appear again the Circuit of the Nexus!" Bonnie called.
"Again?" Amanda asked. "Wow, you're amazing."
"I do practice a lot." Bonnie grinned. "The Summoning Conditions is 1 Gyrus Link Monster! I set Gyrus Spy in the Link Marker!"

"He looks cool." Amanda mentioned.
"Well when he's Link Summoned I can add Gyrus Fusion from my Deck to my hand." Bonnie said showing a spell that looks like Digital Ecryptions mixing together.
"Fusion, I can do that." Amanda smiled.

"Keep quiet." Bonnie scolded to him.
Lance flinched at that.
"I fuse Gyrus Spirit, and Gyrus Magician!" Bonnie called as the two were fused.

Amanda smiled. "I play my spell card."

"Huh?" Bonnie asked.
"Did I do something wrong?" Amanda asked in confusion.
"No... I thought you had a trap there." Bonnie explained.
"Nope." Amanda giggled.
"What does this spell do?" Bonnie asked.
Amanda handed Bonnie the card so she could read it. "Daddy helps me read some of them, I just remember the pictures."
Bonnie looked, and widen her eyes "My field spell helped you used this?"
Itheral: (ATK: 2100 - 500 = 1600)
Elven Hunter: (ATK: 1200 + 500 = 1700)
"Looks like it Bonnie." Lance nodded.
The Hunter fired his arrow that destroyed the angel. (Bonnie: 3400)
"How are you guys?" Mason asked as the three of them walked out of the kitchen. "The chicken is cooking and it'll be ready in a little bit."
"Ace your cousin is really something." Bonnie smiled.
Ace smiled at that.
"Amanda supper is nearly done so why don't we finish this later?" Bonnie smiled.
Bonnie nodded hearing that.
"Do you want to stop miss Bonnie?" Amanda asked.
"Well dinner is getting near so if it's done while we are still dueling it would get cold." She explained.
Amanda frowned. "Ok."
Seeing her expression Bonnie smiled, "Hey don't worry. We will try to finish this match before it gets done okay?"
"You don't want to though." Amanda mentioned sadly. "I'm sorry."
"She does want too. She was worried that your food might get cold if you guys play for too long." Ace reassured her.
"But I win big brother, and mommy says you have to let it cool before eating so you don't burn your mouth." Amanda told him. "Right?"
"Well he most likely means 'cold to the touch' like not warm at all." Mason explained.
Amanda nodded at that. "Um... you do this?"
With that she put her hand on her cards.
"Yeah that's likely for surrendering." Bonnie answered.
Bonnie: 3400
Amanda: 4000 (Surrendered)
Bonnie wins the duel!
"Mommy and daddy said not to stop in the middle, and if we have to stop I have to let the other person win." Amanda told her.
Bonnie smiled nodding, "Declan, and Sarah raised you well."
Amanda giggled at that only to frown. "The dumb chicken was too fast."
"Well it's the only thing I can cook." Mason admitted.
"Chicken is yummy, but I was having fun playing." Amanda pouted only for Ace to pick her up.
"You'll have more fun, and maybe after dinner we can all play. I still have to try working with Mason remember?" Ace asked.
"Yeah. Ace still has to try out the Gyrus Deck, Lance made for him." Mason told her.
Gyrus Dragons, you said it was... destruction based effects?" Ace asked. "So when I can destroy cards and get. more effects based on that?"
"Yeah but the most things that Gyrus has is paying Life Points so you need to keep a clear eye on your Life Points." Mason answered.
Ace nodded at that. "Well I have two really good teachers to learn how it works."
They all nodded with smiles.
"Miss Bonnie, grandma and grandpa and everybody will be ok right?" Amanda asked nervously. "Lots of mean people hurt them."
"Don't worry Amanda." Bonnie smiled. "Henrietta, and Leo will be okay. Dawn, and the others just to need to stop the guys who were with One-Hundred Eyed Dragon while we stay here to keep Lance's defenses up."
"Actually Bonnie, can we talk for a second?" Lance requested. "In private?"
Bonnie looked before walking where they are in a room, and asked "What is it?"
"Look, I don't want to worry you but I received a message. There are two Ignis trying to get in touch with us, I can't tell which ones but we really need to look for them." Lance told her.
"Two Ignis?" Bonnie asked surprised. "Where are they at?"
"One is located deep in the LID network, and the other..." Lance started uncertainly. "I just don't know. I can't pinpoint it but..."
At that moment the oven beeped signaling the chicken was ready.
"We will talk more later." Bonnie told him. "For now though try to keep your mouth about them shut. When we're ready we will find the one in the LID network."
"Bonnie... they're my family. I know you don't like me but we have to at least try to do something. The message mentioned deletion!" Lance replied.
Bonnie turned to him showing he has her attention at this before thinking of something before saying. "1 hour is when we will leave."
Lance looked unsure but nodded.
Ulrich362: ... Well then.
bopdog111: Which Ignis are they though? If their Lightning, and Windy...
Ulrich362: We'll have to wait and find out. Hopefully it's not either of them, although Lightning is the only significant threat.
bopdog111: Hopefully they are Earth, and Aqua since they co-exist with Humans.
Ulrich362: Bonnie and the others will find out soon enough. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
