I AM BAAAAAAAAACK! Sorry guys for the long wait. The fifth university semester turned out to be quite tough for me. I will focus on this fanfic from now on. Enjoy.

Luna went with Max, leaving her brother going home alone. As she was walking alongside her boyfriend, she cast her brother a last, a bit sad glance. She really didn't want to leave him like this, but setting things right with Max was important. A part of her thought about was it more important than her brother, but she pushed those thoughts away.

Max took Luna's hand and led her through the city streets. To be perfectly honest Luna was a bit uncomfortable while walking around the city like this, but Max liked it, so she kept silent. Luna knew the direction they were going. They reached a rather luxurious restaurant. Luna ate here several times when their parents took them here. When she was little, she considered it boring. Nowadays Max and his family often took her here. Now she considered it… boring. It was a nice place, but it wasn't something she was used to.

The couple got greeted by a waiter. He knew them by now. Max asked for the most expensive table and the smiling waiter led them to it. It was a bit further away from all other tables. It had one of those round sofas, red in color. The couple took their seats and Max ordered a meal for the two of them. He didn't say anything to the girl while they were walking. The waiter left with their order and a minute later Max started a conversation.

"Listen, Luna, please forgive me the words that I said to Leo."

"Yeah, I am sorry for snapping as well" said the girl as she put a smile on her face. She knew that they would have to touch on this subject, but it didn't make it any more pleasant. "Yes, anger does not suit such fragile flower as you."

Luna continued smiling although an anger vein popped on her forehead, but Max didn't notice it. "But you really should understand the reason of my anger. When I heard about this contest I started thinking about the possibilities that it could give me, the possibilities it could give us. I immediately thought about the fact that I could become a professional player. It would become the foundation of our future. The future you and I will share. Leo would've become the first brick in that foundation, but alas."

Max stopped his tirade as the waiter came with their order. He placed two plates on the table, one with a vegetarian salad and another one with a beefsteak. Luna took the plate with meat and dug in. Max looked at her with a bit of disgust. "I still don't understand how you can eat this. It's a dead body of an animal".

"Plants are considered alive, right?"

"Of course."

"Then you are eating dead bodies of the plants, sliced into tiny pieces. Isn't your statement hypocritical then?"

"It's completely different."

"Is it?"

"Yes, it is" said the boy. Luna had a hard time hiding her smirk. "Okay, lets end this topic for now. We came here to set things right. Well, despite Leo's actions I managed to stabilize the situation." After those words he motioned with his hand for someone behind Luna. The girl turned around and saw a woman in a short black dress. She saw her before she was one of those women that were helping with the contest held by Ourbos organization. She went over to the table and took a seat beside the couple. "Luna, please meet Mary. She is one of the workers of Ourbos organization. She was tasked with observing the contest and consulting the winner of the finals. Despite the fact that we didn't have the finals match, she decided to talk to me. She acknowledged my skills and asked me to come with her to Ourbos main office. I said that I would only come if they would let me take you there as well."

The woman nodded at Luna. "Yes. I did acknowledge your skills, miss Luna, but I have to say that your way of dueling during the contest was far too reckless. I checked the schools files. You are a brilliant student. Your grades are very high and you have a great dueling record, but…"

"Oh, of course there is a 'but'" said the girl with a bored expression. Mary wasn't pleased by Luna interrupting her. She gave her a very unpleasant look, to which Luna simply rolled her eyes. "I think that the source of this bad influence is…"

"Let me guess, my brother."

"Exactly."

"You are not the first one to say that" Luna glanced at Max, "and you won't be the last, but let me say you this. Leo is my family, most important part of my family. He protected me all my life, even more than my parents did and they tried their hardest to do that. I don't care what all of you guys say about my brother being bad influence on me. Because of him I am safe."

"I am still going to say this. The path that you walk along with your brother goes nowhere but down, into dark pit."

Luna's eyes hardened as she glared at the woman and clenched her fists. Max got the hint and took her hand into his own. The green haired girl looked at him. Her expression softened a little bit. "My love. Please do not be so hard on Mary. She simple states the facts."

Luna took a large breath and calmed down. "Okay, sure. Tell whatever you wanted to tell us."

"We would like to invite Max to our company and sponsor him to become a professional duelist. He would become the face of our company in dueling world. As was stated, Max requested your presence. So, please, follow me to the car and I will escort you to our HQ"

"Fine, but I am finishing the meal" said the girl as she stabbed her meat with fork. She obviously wasn't pleased with the situation. Just like her brother she didn't like this Ourbos organization, but another person that wanted to find out more about it was Crow. Since he worked for Sector Security, he was interested in this organization. She could get some valuable information from this visit.

Sector Security did check its records and they checked their Headquarters, but there was nothing strange or unusual. Still the question about this organization remained. Where do they get their money? Who was the person that founded it? Well, the name of the person was known, but he was obviously a fake. He was a no one a few years ago and then, with the creation of Ourbos, he suddenly became their leader. And of course there was the last suspicious part. They were too perfect. They were like Mary Sue of business world. That was the most annoying part.

Yeah, annoying. No matter where you went you would hear about Ourbos doing this and doing that and how good they were and how everyone should strive to be like them and become one of their employees. Maybe it didn't make them evil, but the abundance of advertisement and propaganda was very annoying.

Anyway, Luna put the last piece the meal into her mouth and stood up. She followed Mary along with Max to a black car near the restaurant. Max opened the door of her and the green haired girl took her seat. The engine started and the card drove off.

The car went through the streets of New Domino City. Luna cast a bit of sad glance at her penthouse that could be seen through car window. Her brother was probably there. She kind of wanted to get home already. Even now, when she is a teenager, she still can't stay away from him for too long.

Finally the car arrived to the destination. It was a large building with glass walls and a large letter 'O' at the center of it. It was shaped as a dragon devouring his tail. The couple was led by Mary through the halls of Ourbos HQ. Luna saw nothing special as they walked. They reached a pair of glass doors and Mary opened them for the couple. They entered an enormous room.

People were busy manufacturing the boxes with cards and they were getting loaded with cards. Nothing suspicious actually. "Here we produce our deck dispensers and load them with our custom cards" started Mary. "By the end of the month we plan to set these machines all over the New Domino City. We want dueling to be available for everyone".

Luna half-heartedly listened to the lecture. She lightly touched one of the cards in her deck and unknown to everyone a small fox with a tiny red flame on the tip of its tail appeared behind her leg. She gave the monster a wink and the fox ran away to scout out the things in the room. With that Luna continued listening to the lecture. "… makes our cards better. We want to make a deal with either Kaiba Corp or Industrial Illusions to allow us to create our own legal cards"

Okay, so they kind of want to take a bite out of the success of Industrial Illusions, but that wasn't something unusual. They walked through the room as Mary told quite a boring lecture of how they used most advanced technologies and that bright future awaits their organization and so on. Finally Luna's fox returned. The monster disintegrated and returned to the deck. Now, as a spirit the fox told Luna about what she found. The green haired girl sighed as she received the information. She walked away from her companions and looked at a pile of cards that were about be loaded into a dispenser. She ran her hand over the paper and took a few cards from one of the carefully set columns. She flipped through them, but didn't find the thing that she wanted to find.

"What are you doing?" came a slightly annoyed voice of Mary. Luna didn't pay any attention to her words and continued looking through the cards. Finally she found the thing she was looking for. She turned around and held a card between her fingers. "What is this?" asked the green haired girl with a frown. Max's eyes went wide from surprise. He almost ran over to his girlfriend and snatched the card from her hand. He seemed mesmerized by it. The card was 'Winged Dragon of Ra'.

"Isn't it obvious. It is one of the Egyptian God Cards" said the woman in a matter-of-fact tone. Luna gave her a stern look. For some reason Mary shivered. The look from this seemingly innocent girl scared the grown woman. "Do you know what happens when people try to copy these cards. Didn't you hear about the accident at the tournament held by Seto Kiba. These cards are dangerous".

"With all due respect Ms. Luna, our researchers made sure that something like this won't happen"

"How can you be sure?"

A smirk made its way onto Mary's face. "Let me show you. Please, follow me." Luna took the card from Max's hand and skillfully threw it away. The card flew in a straight line and stuck in a crack between the doors.

The teens followed the woman into another large room. This building sure seemed smaller on the outside. The room was something like training field. People were dueling. Nothing seemed special except… Oh, no, it couldn't be. Luna took a step closer and extended her arm. It got blown by wind which couldn't have been here. Then there was loud crashing sound as a machine-type monster got destroyed. A piece of metal flew away and was heading in Luna's direction. Max jumped in front of her and a large white wing appeared above him and protected the teens from the metal.

Luna turned around to the woman. "You are training psychic duelists." It wasn't a question, she simply stated the fact. "Yes, we help these young duelists reach their maximum potential"

"Yeah, I knew an organization that was trying to do something similar" there was a definite sarcasm in her voice. Mary was getting more and more annoyed by the green haired girl. "I don't like your tone young lady. What are you implying?"

"Ever heard about Arcadia Movement?"

"Luna" said Max in a stern tone. "Ourbos and Arcadia are two different things. They weren't the same, they are not the same and they won't be the same."

"Yes, exactly" said the woman. "We help these people. We do not use them."

"Where have I heard that before!"

"Enough!" shouted Max. "We are guests here! Your brother influences you too much."

"Once again I must note that Mr. Ardo is correct, but enough of bickering. Mr. Ardo, please follow me. We would like to test your abilities as psychic duelist"

Luna really wanted to continue the conversation, but it seemed that no one would listen, so she simply followed them. They walked over to a field. There was a place for a duelist and on the other side there was a machine. "Depending on your strength as a psychic duelist, the things that you create with your power can vary in strength. We use this machine as a way to test that power. Everything is simple and that is why genius. You will use a card that we shall give to you. The card is 'Raigeki'. It will strike the machine with electricity. Depending on the strength of your psychic powers, the voltage of lightning will change. Please try it out"

Max nodded and took the card, given to him by Mary. The teen took out his duel disk and put it onto his arm. He placed the spell card onto the duel disk and a lightning came down onto the machine. There was a beeping sound as the voltage got evaluated.

Mary's eyes widened. "Wow, Mr. Ardo. This is amazing. 880 million volts. It is four times higher than the highest result that we've gotten. I can't believe it". Max had a proud smirk on his face. "I think I can do better in an actual duel."

"I am sure, but I don't think that needs to be proven. Now please let's go to my office. I will provide you with a schedule for the next month. After this month we will be able to evaluate your abilities and see if you truly can be the face of our organization. But don't worry I am sure you will do splendidly".

Max nodded and they went after the woman, again. Luna let out a yawn. This turned out to be much more boring than she thought. She kind of expected to get into an adventure here. Maybe find out about something shady about this organization, but there wasn't anything all that interesting here. Yeah, these guys did train psychic duelists, but really, almost every second organization tried to do something with psychics. It could end up badly, but as long as they keep it legal, there was nothing they could really do to them. She will still tell Trudge about this, but it isn't much.

Luna got out of her thoughts and found herself at an office where Mary was telling her boyfriend about several events that their organization will hold in the nearest month. Luna missed some of the information, but she heard that tomorrow there would be an event where Max would duel against a professional duelist. It could even be Jack. Half of the city would be invited to the stadium while another half would be able to watch it through television.

Max thanked the woman. She smiled at him and then gave a card. Max looked at it and put it into his deck with a smile. Then he took Luna's hand and they left the office. They easily found their way out of the HQ. By the time they left the building it was already night time.

"Can you believe it, my love? I can become a part of something great. This is so exciting" said the boy. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" asked the teal haired girl. "Why would it be a bad idea. Ourbos organization does only good to people and I can become a part of this."

"Well, suit yourself, but I still think that they are not as noble and romantic as they want to seem."

"I am sure you are wrong my dear and I will prove it to you."

"Sure. Let's go home. I am tired and hungry."

The couple went home together. They reached their penthouse half an hour later. They didn't talk much along the way. There really wasn't much to talk about. Although there was one conversation that happened a bit earlier. Luna asked him about the card that Mary gave him, but Max simply smiled and said that she will have to wait and see. Luna left it at that. It probably wasn't that important. As disappointing as it was, Ourbos was a typical organization with overly high ambitions. It seemed like that was it.

Now they were standing near Max's apartment. The black haired teen placed a hand onto luna's waist and pulled her into a kiss. "Maybe you will stay with my family for the dinner."

"I think Leo and Yusei are worried about me already. And you know about Aki. I can't let her worry about me. It could be bad for the baby."

"It won't take long. I promise and besides your apartment is just a floor higher. You will go there as soon as we finish our meal."

"Okay, lead the way."

Max smiled and opened the door for the girl. The couple entered Ardo apartment. They were greeted by Max's parents.

"Max, where have you been. Oh, and Luna. Nice to see you" said Max's mother. "We were invited by Ourbos organization. I will probably be their representative in dueling world."

The eyes of Max's parents turned wide. "Impossible. What did they say? When they are going to call you again?"

"Dad, dad, slow down. They gave me a schedule. I will have a duel tomorrow against a Pro Duelist. They said that it could even be Jack Atlas. After this month they will be able to say if I qualify for the position, but they said that I am the most fitting candidate, so I shouldn't worry."

"Of course you are, son" said Mr. Ardo. "Come on, let's dinner and you will tell us everything about what happened today", said Mrs. Ardo.

"Yes, mother".

All four of them went to the kitchen where a table was already served. How did Max's parents managed to guess the time of their coming and how they guessed that there would be four people at the table today was beyond Luna. A tiny voice in the back of her mind quietly screamed that Max planned it in advance and informed his parents, but she kindly shoved it deeper in the back of her mind.

They started eating. After the first few spoons got eaten Mr. Ardo asked Max to tell them everything that happened after the contest at school because he knew everything about that already. To be perfectly honest the tale was quite boring for Luna. Well, she obviously was present there and she still didn't get over the disappointment of not finding some gross dark secret of Ourbos.

It is like with people from Europe and America who come to Japan and they leave disappointed. They feel like Japan didn't deliver to them. They can't believe that for the time that they spent in Japan not a single horrendous monster attacked them. Luna felt just like that and hearing all about it again, in details, was painfully boring.

By the time the tale was told Luna had already finished her meal and she ate slowly, like mouse bites. Max's parents carefully listened to their son with outmost interest. "Well, well son. I didn't expect any less out of you. I am sure they would've taken you immediately, without waiting this unrequired month if only Leo wouldn't sabotage your victory at the finals".

"He did what?" spat Mrs. Ardo. "What exactly that boy did to you?!"

"He gave up. I barely started the turn and he decided to concede. Thus they couldn't evaluate how I would deal with the other finalist."

Mrs. Ardo looked at Luna with a stern look. "I hope you would talk with your brother about this. That was a very selfish thing to do. Your brother should've understood that he was supposed to become a ramp for Max's future, which means your future as well."

Luna gritted her teeth, but didn't show it. "My wife is right. His behavior is dangerous for the future and potential of people around him. I checked your grades. They have dropped"

"By half a point"

"Still. I believe that is the influence of your brother" said Mr. Ardo. "Say, Luna, maybe you would like to live with us for some time. It is probably difficult for you to live in an apartment with a pregnant woman and Max may help you with getting your grades higher" said Max's mother.

"Thank you, but I would prefer staying home with my family."

"I would still recommend you to consider the offer" said Max's mother. Luna nodded as she silently gritted her teeth. The green haired girl looked at the clock and was relieved to see how late it was. "I'm sorry, but I will leave now. It is getting late."

"I will escort you to your house." said Max. "Thanks, but you really shouldn't. I live just a staircase away."

"But I want to."

"Okay, sure, let's go" said the green haired teen. She wished Max's parents good night and left Ardo apartment, followed by Max. The boy stopped his girlfriend before her door. "Please consider our offer. I think it would be good for you to live with me for some time."

"Thanks Max, but I will stay with my family."

Max let out a sigh and nodded. They kissed goodnight and parted ways. Luna turned to the door, let out a tired sigh and entered the house.

She immediately felt her face touch something soft. This something also smelled like soap. A very familiar soap. "Luna, where have you been all day?!" came Akiza's voice. Luna smiled, put her hands around woman's waist and nuzzled into woman's chest. "Max took me for a tour around Ourbos organization's HQ. Nothing interesting happened there."

"Really?" came the voice of Yusei from the living room. He was seating in a chair, watching something on the TV. Luna saw her brother's head above the back of a sofa. Luna and Aki went to the living room where Luna carefully placed the woman into an armchair. Then she looked at what they were watching. "Yeah, really. In fact the reason why you guys are watching 'The Aristocats' is much more interesting."

"Aki said that she wanted to remember her childhood and said that she wanted to have a Disney movie night. We didn't mind." Informed Yusei. "Okay, I'll go change, I really need to get out of these clothes, take shower and join you."

The girl went to her room, grabbed a pair of shorts and a shirt that she was wearing in the morning. She went to the shower, got out of her clothes and got under the shower. She showered for about fifteen minutes and got out she put on shirt and shorts, put a towel around her head and went to the living room. She stopped in front of a mirror. She looked at herself and a smirk made its way onto her face. She grabbed the hem of her, well, Leo's really, shirt, lifted it up and tied into a knot, so her belly could be seen. Yeah, she needed to tease her brother for a bit, out of pure love of course. She just needed to get a dose of nice family affection after the visit to Ardo apartment.

Not all visits to them went like that. Ardos could be nice, when they really wanted, that didn't happen all that much, but still. With another sigh she went back to the living room. She walked behind the sofa and hoped over it right onto her brother. "Oh, god, Luna. You are not that light."

"What was that dear brother?" asked the girl as she narrowed her eyes at him. He did the same. Luna giggled and pecked her brother on the cheek. He smiled at her. Luna made herself comfortable on her brother and started watching the movie. "Your towel is wet" reported the teal haired boy. "Deal with it" said the girl who's attention was directed at the screen.

"So what happened at the HQ?" asked the boy. "Nothing really. It's not even worth to talk about it. I will tell you tomorrow. Now let's enjoy the movies and nostalgia for our childhood" said the girl as nuzzled into her brother's neck. He chuckled and kissed her on the forehead. "Sure."

They tore through 'Beauty and The Beast', 'Cinderella' and after 'Lady and The Tramp', Yusei and Akiza decided to go to sleep. They said their goodnights to the twins and Yusei helped his wife to their bedroom.

"Maybe we should go to sleep as well?" asked Leo. "Nah, I want to watch a few more movies."

"So I will have to carry you to your room, again."

"Let's just sleep here. You make quite a comfortable bed."

"Okay. So what is next on the list?"

"Oh, oh, let's watch Mulan."

"Alright."
