bopdog111: Hello guys.

Ulrich362: Time for more of this, and things are very interesting.

bopdog111: Blue Frost is now expecting herself.

Ulrich362: Exactly, I wonder how the rest of the family will react to that news. Why don't we find out, enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V or Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS but we own the OCs

"Do the others know?" Purple Poison asked suddenly.

Blue Frost shook her head no.

"We should probably let them know." Purple Poison admitted. "I'll let the boys know if you can let White Wing and Dawn know?"

Blue Frost smiled nodding.

Purple Poison smiled before kissing her cheek.

A few minutes later...

Everyone had gathered in the living room.

"What's going on?" White Wing asked confused.

"What's going on... is Purple and I are going to be parents." Blue Frost smiled.

Everyone blinked.

"You heard her." Purple Poison smiled. "Our family will be getting a little bit bigger, and it's all thanks to someone putting the idea in her head."

Everyone turned to Sarah as he said that.

Sarah looked away blushing a little, "I-I was only joking... Since Ray brought it up..."

"But you were right, we aren't in any way related. So in a way we should be thanking you." Blue Frost smiled gently.

Sarah blushed deeper before running to her room in embarrassment.

"Sarah!" Declan called before running after her.

"...Give her a few minutes." Riley told them.

"We... we're not mad though." Blue Frost explained sadly. "And seeing Ray and Rin so happy..."

"She knows your not mad." Ray explained to her. "She's just feeling a bit embarrassed."

"That makes sense." Purple Poison nodded.

Dawn then smiled, "So this means I'm getting a new baby brother or sister again?"

"Yup." Purple Poison smiled.

"How did Ace react?" Dawn smiled.

"He was really excited." Blue Frost smiled. "He asked to feel my tummy but there's nothing to feel yet."

"Kids like them can't resist. Remember the time Rin told us?" Casey smiled. "Riley, and Alex asked."

Riley blushed slightly remembering that.

Meanwhile...

Ace and Sandy were walking to the theater.

"W-What kind of movie you like to watch?" Ace asked his girlfriend.

"There's a new comedy I thought we could see together." Sandy answered. 'Actually, I think it was called a romantic comedy but we're dating so it should be ok. Kids are allowed to see it.'

Ace nodded as they arrived. Just before they got in line though Ace suddenly started screaming at the top of his lungs.

"Ace!? What is it?" Sandy asked concerned as everyone looked over.

He just kept screaming until he collapsed to the ground unconscious.

"Ace! Please someone! He needs help please! He needs a doctor!" Sandy begged the people.

Most people stared but one of them nodded and moved to call an ambulance while Sandy felt Ace's forehead only to almost get burned.

"Gah!" She pulled her hand back waving it around to cool it as she said, "Ace your running a bad fever!"

A few minutes later the ambulance arrived and a family directed them towards Ace.

"Please you gotta help!" Sandy begged the ambulence.

"Young lady, do you know where his parents are?" one of the medics asked as two others moved Ace onto a stretcher.

"There still at home! We're going to a theater, and he suddenly screamed!" Sandy answered.

"Get in touch with them and let them know what's going on." the medic told her as they drove Ace to the hospital.

Sandy looked on crying before she ran to the Akaba residence. Inside Dawn was talking excitedly with Blue Frost about her baby. Suddenly the door was slammed opened.

"Huh?" Dawn asked turning to the door.

Sandy was sweating, and was crying while breathing from her hard run.

"Sandy, where's Ace?" Blue Frost asked.

"He's... He's at the..." Sandy said trying to catch her breath.

"Sandy, what happened?" Dawn asked.

Sandy after catching her breath cried, "Ace! He's at the Hospital!"

"What?" Dawn asked in horror.

"I'll let everyone know, you two go make see him." Blue Frost told the two girls.

They nodded running out. Blue Frost meanwhile ran to let everyone know what Sandy told them.

The two girls arrived at the hospital.

"Yes?" the nurse at the front desk asked seeing them. "How can... wait Dawn Akaba? Room 324, intensive care."

Dawn nodded as they both ran to the room where the nurse said. They arrived to see Ace hooked up to a bunch of machines monitoring his vitals and all of them were going crazy while his temperature read 103.2. Dawn gasped in horror seeing him like this.

"Big sis!" called a voice.

They turned.

Everyone was running up to them with Terri, Alex, Kelly, and Lilly all looking really scared.

"Big sis, what's wrong with Ace?" Alex asked fearfully.

Dawn started crying before pointing at the answer not trusting her voice. She looked before her eyes widened and she started tearing up before just turning and crying as Terri, Kelly, and Lilly all did the same thing.

"What happened?" Celina asked in shock as Rin, and Lulu turned away crying.

"I don't know..." Sandy choked out. "We were about to go to the theater when he just started screaming."

"Are the doctors able to find out?" Yuya asked them.

"We don't know." Dawn answered before she started sobbing again. "Acey..."

Sandy walked, and carefully hold his hand crying softly. Ace's hand was burning and all of his vitals were going crazy... it looked as though he would die at any moment. Sandy cried softly, "Please... Someone... Save him..."

Meanwhile..

"Well Doktor, what's going on?" Yami Marik questioned. "You said the boy would be your puppet, this does not look like a puppet."

"I don't understand. Why isn't it taking effect!?" The Dotkor called wanting to know what's going on.

Sardon then started to laugh.

"Something amuses you?" Dark Mist inquired.

"Seeing how foolish you all are..." Sardon smirked.

"What are you talking about?" Viper questioned. "Wait, you know what's going on don't you?"

Sardon only continued to laugh.

"Answer us, what is it you know?" Viper questioned.

"Master Gus, do you know what's going on?" Specter inquired.

Sardon smirked, "It's simple... That boy is not a complete human no. He is also part Duel Spirit."

"What?" Yami Marik questioned. "Impossible!"

"Have you gone mad!" Viper shouted. "There's no way that can be true!"

"That was a very bad joke Master Gus, anyone can clearly see the boy is human just as so many others." Dark Mist pointed out.

"I agree with them completely, perhaps you're simply exhausted because something like that simply cannot make sense." the Doktor told him. "Humans and Duel Spirits are fundamentally different."

Specter meanwhile looked at the image of Ace they'd been watching thoughtfully.

Master Gus stayed silent before he revealed, "The Demon speaks the truth."

"Master Gus, how do you know this?" Specter asked.

"Duel Spirit, and Human separately can fallen prey to the Parasite no matter how strong their minds are." Master Gus answered. "However hybrids of those two can create a Duelist, and Warrior of unbelievable power that the Parasites can't control them."

"But that doesn't explain how he could be one of those hybrids." Yami Marik stated as frowned. "True his siblings, those dragons are Duel Spirits but they're not related to him and his parents are humans. It just makes no sense."

Dark Mist sneered, "We need answers."

"And how do you propose we get them? In case you've forgotten, they don't exactly trust us." Specter pointed out. "Master Gus, how should we proceed?"

"You will blend in like before since they are clear to trust you." Master Gus answered. "Get answers."

"Of course." Specter nodded only for none of them to notice the image of Casey gasp.

At the hospital...

"Wait... that feels like..." Casey whispered before his eyes widened in horror.

"Casey?" Riley asked worried.

"This... it's just like with Amanda." Casey told her. "There's another one of those new parasites nearby."

Riley widen her eyes hearing that. Casey took a slow breath to try and calm down before looking around only for his eyes to widen even wider. "Ace!"

"Is Ace...?" Riley asked shocked.

"I think so." Casey nodded.

"We better do something!" Takeru called hearing that.

"How? We can't get rid of the Parasite without defeating Ace and he's in no condition to duel." Flame pointed out.

"Don't remind me!" Takeru told him. "I'm trying to think."

"Well obviously the biggest question is why he's reacting like that to the Parasite when nobody else did." Yuto pointed out. "At least, I don't remember anyone else getting sick."

"Yeah none of us reacted like that." Gale remembered.

"It doesn't make..." Ray started before pausing. 'Wait a second...'

"Ray?" Yusaku asked seeing her.

She turned to Zarc. "Do... do you think it might be because of wh..."

Suddenly Ace's heart rate dropped to zero for a few seconds only to start again as his temperature momentarily jumped to 105 before dropping back to 103.1.

"ACE!" Sandy cried in horror seeing that.

Dawn and her aspects all started sobbing seeing that as Yuto clenched his fists.

"This can't be real."

"Get a doctor here now!" Gale cried.

Yugo nodded before running off just as Akira, Skye, and an unknown girl approached them.

"What's going on?" Skye asked. "We saw Yugo, Rin, and Alex race past like something terrible was happening."

"Ace was attacked by a Parasite but he reacted differently." Ryoken answered.

"What?" the girl asked in surprise. "Then doesn't he need surgery to remove it?"

"Not that kind of Parasite." Ryoken said before asking, "Hey who are you?"

"My name's Miyu... Aqua's partner." the girl answered as Ray quietly walked off with White Wing.

They all looked shocked hearing that.

Lightning emerged as he said, "So Windy freed you from the virus I made..."

"Yes." Akira nodded. "He did."

"Your Ignis was really helpful for Ace." Mason told Miyu.

"Oh... that's good." Miyu mentioned.

Meanwhile...

"White Wing... I..." Ray started uncertainly before closing her eyes. "Do you think this happened because of what Ace is?"

White Wing looked surprised hearing that.

"I just can't think of any other reason this would have happened." Ray admitted before tearing up. "My baby boy..."

White Wing looked down as she said, "I think it could... Duel Spirits, and Humans together have incredible power themselves but combined..."

Ray's eyes suddenly widened before she whispered a single word. "Dawn!"

White Wing turned to her. Ray was in tears as White Wing realized what Ray was thinking, if it was because Ace was half Duel Spirit, the same thing could happen to Dawn.

"Oh Ray." White Wing said feeling bad.

"Is... is this all my fault?" Ray choked out.

"No don't ever think that." White Wing told her.

"But I'm the one who... both times I..." Ray started before sobbing again.

White Wing rubbed her back to comfort her.

"What if... what if he doesn't wake up?" Ray whispered.

"He will." White Wing said to her softly.

Ray tried to wipe her eyes as they walked back but just kept crying. White Wing kept on rubbing her back. They arrived to see the others had arrived and Zarc was arguing with a doctor. Dawn was being comforted by Haru as he rubbed her back.

"Why is this happening?" Dawn asked miserably. "Acey didn't do anything wrong."

"No... He didn't." Haru agreed.

"Mr. Akaba I understand how you feel but if his condition doesn't change for the better... you don't want to make your son suffer do you?" the doctor asked getting Ray's attention. "If it comes to that you may have consider what I told you."

"What's he talking about?" Skye asked hearing that.

"I'm not killing my son!" Zarc stated angrily. "I know what's wrong with him I just... I can't figure out why it did this."

"When it comes to it you need to decide." The doctor told him.

Zarc just looked down as the doctor walked off before turning to where Ace was still in horrible shape.

"Why did the Doktor do this to him?" Mason asked angry.

"A doctor?" Miyu asked in confusion. 'What do you mean, the doctors are trying to help."

"Not that kind of doctor. Doktor with a k." Bonnie empathised.

Suddenly Terri's eyes widened in horror while Alex started tearing up. Hart, and Leo embraced them when they saw that.

"It's our fault... we saved mommy and aunt Lulu." Alex realized.

"No Alex don't think like that." Leo told her. "That's nothing be ashamed of."

"But she's right, the Doktor made the Parasites stronger because of us... we're the reason he's hurting Ace now." Terri said sadly. "It is our fault."

"Don't think that way Terri." Hart told her. "It isn't that."

"Then why did he go after Ace, Hart?" Terri questioned. "Why him?"

Shay clenched his fist, "When I find him I'll card, and rip him to shreds!"

SLAP!

They turned startled. Lulu had tears in her eyes as she had slapped Shun. "Never say that!"

"Lulu..." Shay trailed off.

Her eyes were full of tears. "Not after last time... not again."

"Where can we find him is the question." Kite pointed out. "Where is he?"

"He's with Dark Mist, but they could be anywhere." Yugo frowned.

"That's what he asked." Rin pointed out.

"I know, I just meant... Mir!" Yugo cried suddenly.

"Mir? What about her?" Alex asked.

"If anybody could help us figure out why this happened to Ace and might be able to help it's her." Yugo explained. "Maybe she can do something."

"She's at the Synchro Dimension with Jarrod right now." Casey nodded.

"Should we..." Yusaku started before Yuki's phone started to ring.

Yuki answered, "Hello."

"Ah Yuki-boy, I'm glad I caught you. Are you and your lovely family able to stop by my island?" Pegasus inquired.

"Stop at Duelist Kingdom? What for?" Yuki asked.

"Why to congratulate your nephew of course, he's improved Duel Monsters in a way I never dreamed possible and I wanted to personally thank him." Pegasus answered calmly. "Not to mention the countless people he's helped in his five short years of life, he's a remarkable person."

"Uh... We can't." Yuki told him.

"Nonsense, I'll have a helicopter prepared to meet you all soon." Pegasus mentioned calmly.

"Not what I meant Pegasus. I mean we really can't get there right now." Yuki told him. "Ace is..."

He turned to Gale who nodded sadly.

"Ace is in a urgent condition, and is in the hospital." Yuki finished.

The line was silent for a moment.

"I see... well if there's anything I can do to help just tell me."

"Thanks Pegasus." Yuki said.

"Of course." Pegasus mentioned before hanging up.

"You all should go home for now... I'll stay here." Zarc told the group.

"Zarc?" Yugo asked.

"I'll be alright Yugo." Zarc told him. "Besides, you have a baby to worry about."

They nodded hearing that. Zarc watched them leave before turning to Ace who was sleeping but clearly looked to be in agony.

'Ace...' He gritted his teeth seeing this.

Later in the Xyz Dimension...

Hart clench his hand in anger, "I feel so helpless..."

Terri started to cry as she hugged him. Hart hugged his girlfriend back. Yuto suddenly clenched his fists before walking to the phone and dialing. "Vector you better pick up."

The phone ringed a few times before, "Hello?"

"Vector, it's Yuto. How soon can you, the rest of the Barian Emperors, Yuma, and everybody get here?" Yuto asked quickly.

"Why what's going on?" Vector asked.

"I'll tell you when you all get here." Yuto told him. "Just... come as fast as you guys can."

"Okay." Vector answered before hanging up.

Yuto hung up too before closing his eyes. "He's with Dark Mist... so maybe, the Emperors, Astral, the Arclights, and Dr. Faker working together can use the card to help us reach them. It's the only thing I can think of right now to try and help Ace."

Several Minutes later...

The Emperors along with Yuma arrived.

"... Ace is in bad shape." Yuto told them. "He could die."

"What happened?" Yuma asked shocked.

"One of those Parasites, but instead brainwashing Ace it's killing him." Yuto explained. "He's in Paradise City hospital right now."

"You want us to use our powers to help him?" Shark guessed.

"No, I was hoping your powers could teleport us to Dark Mist. The Doktor is with him and if we can beat him... I think that might help Ace." Yuto explained. "Honestly, I was thinking the Arclights and Dr. Faker could help too."

"It will take a while..." Vector told him.

"But it might work?" Terri asked hopefully.

"It might. Or it can bring Dark Mist to us." Rio answered.

Terri nodded before tearing up. "Why is this happening? He's a good person, Ace never hurt anybody."

Hart patted her back.

"It's happening because of what Ace is... and what Bruno, you, and your sisters are Terri." Black Fang said suddenly.

(A/N (Ulrich362): The five magicians, and Ray talked after they went home and each Magician went to their respective families. They decided to reveal everything after what happened.)

"Huh?" Terri asked confused.

"It's... really complicated, but you're not human Terri, and neither is Yuto." Black Fang told her.

"Not Human?" Lulu asked confused.

"That's right, you see it's because... Zarc isn't human, the five of us created a humanoid Duel Spirit. When he was split apart, you and the others were each the same as one of us. You are the Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon Yuto." Black Fang revealed.

Yuto looked shocked at this as Terri looked at her hands.

"I'm... Part Duel Spirit?" Terri asked shocked.

Black Fang nodded. "Yeah, you are. Actually, we think that's why this is happening to Ace, the Parasite can control humans, and as for Duel Spirits... they equip to monsters so that could explain Yuto, but for someone like you or Ace... it's the only thing we could come up with at least. Sorry for lying to you for so long."

Terri looked at her hands as she teared up, "Hart?"

Hart just hugged her.

"Am... Am I a... f-f..." Terri stuttered to say the next word.

"Of course not." Hart interjected before kissing her gently. "You never could be."

Meanwhile in the other four Dimensions...

The other girls we're in tears as their boyfriends comforted them.

'Was telling them...' Double Iris thought.

'... A mistake?...' White Wing thought.

'...They deserved to know, we all agreed but...' Blue Frost thought.

'... It's destroying them, completely.' Purple Poison thought sadly.

Eventually they decided to give them time.

"Yuya, Stacy?" Zuzu asked uncertainly.

They turned to her.

"Can... is there anything I can do?" Zuzu asked them.

Yuya smiled, "It's okay Zuzu. We'll be fine."

Zuzu looked unsure but nodded. Stacy hugged her. Zuzu smiled hugging her back.

"Well... now you know everything, and probably hate us... you have every right to after all." Double Iris frowned.

"Hate you? Why do you think that?" Yuya smiled to him.

"Weren't you listening Yuya? You're not human!" Double Iris shouted before breaking down into tears. "The five of us did something that we never should have, and the nine of them are in danger of dying."

"So? That doesn't mean we hate you." Yuya assured.

"And if Stacy ends up like Ace? Or if they all die Yuya?" Double Iris questioned. "We shouldn't have ever created Zarc, it was a mistake."

"Just take a deep breath." Zuzu told him.

He turned to her before closing his eyes. "I... I need to be alone."

They nodded understanding.

Double Iris walked out of the house.

"So... what do we do now?" Yuya asked uncertainly. "How can we help Ace?"

"Beating the Doktor." Stacy looked down. "But where is he?"

"I wish I knew." Yuya frowned.

Stacy started crying, "Ace didn't... Didn't do anything wrong."

"No he didn't." Zuzu agreed hugging her.

Yuya clenched his hands saying, "I feel so useless."

Meanwhile in the Synchro Dimension...

Alex hugged White Wing.

"Alex... I'm so sorry." White Wing apologized tearing up. "We shouldn't have lied for so long."

"I forgive you." Alex smiled to her.

"... So what do we do now?" Rin asked.

"Hopefully figure something to stop that Parasite." Yugo answered clenching his fist.

"Aa aa?" Bruno asked before starting to cry.

Alex walked, and cradled her brother. "It's okay Bruno."

"Ma ma..." Bruno said with tears in his eyes.

She smiled down at him before kissing his forehead.

bopdog111: Isn't good for Ace.

Ulrich362: No it isn't.

bopdog111: Can the Emperors get to Dark Mist?

Ulrich362: And even if they can there's no way of knowing what will happen.

bopdog111: Let's find out next time. Be sure to review!
