--Turn 029--

'Our Special Mission: Save Asuka!'

--Previously on Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: Season 4--

"Guys, Tsuichi is not here," said Amon and all of them stop their movements.

"WHAT!" all of them said in unison.

"I think we should find him, NOW! Maybe he is still here in the forest," Amon suggested.

"How do you know about that, Amon?" Sho asked just to make sure he is correct.

"We all know that Kian won't do anything for Shadow. And he won't act like that because he worked alone, even though he is in the Dark Duelists," Amon explained.

--switch back to the unknown location--

"Well done, Kian," Shadow said as he ordered the others to put Tsuichi's body in front of him.

"Shawran. So nice to see you. I never thought that you know something like that about the Three Mystical Gods."

Just then, Tsuichi woke up weakly. He heard Shadow and just yelled "If you think that I will tell you all about the Three Mystical Gods, then you're WRONG!! I WON'T TELL YOU THAT!!! I WON'T BETRAY MY FRIENDS!!"

Shadow laughs in Tsuichi's statement about not telling him about the Three Mystical Gods and said "Tsuichi, I know you would say that so that's why…" Shadow didn't finish his sentence but it made Tsuichi's face shock on what he saw.

"NOOOOO!!!" Tsuichi shouted in pain.

Opening: Oath in the Storm by Kimeru

--in the forest--

Judai and the others are still finding Tsuichi everywhere in the forest.

"TSUICHI!"

All of them shouted the name of Tsuichi in their location, but there was no response. They didn't found Tsuichi anywhere. Then, they all just decided to go back in their meeting place, in the center of the forest to talk it over. Luckily, all of them came back.

"Did anyone of you found Tsuichi?" asked Amon.

All of them face the ground. Amon knows that neither one of them didn't find Tsuichi. When suddenly, Tsuichi reappeared in front of them. Judai and the others quickly held Tsuichi up and he weakly explain what had happened to him.

"Shadow… defeated… me… in a… duel. Judai-kun… he is… your…" Tsuichi cut his sentence as he passed out. All of them accompanied Tsuichi into the infirmary, except for Amon. He sneaked behind them to find the lair of Shadow by himself.

--in the infirmary--

Johan finaly woke up after his long sleep. When he sat up, he saw Kaiji and Shawran still fast asleep on the other beds and also, Asuka, Sho and Kenzan waiting for him to wake up.

"Asuka? Sho? Kenzan? What am I doing here?" asked Johan as he tried to get up.

"Good afternoon, Johan! At last you're awake!" Sho said as he put a smile on his face.

"You have been sent here in the infirmary because of what happened on the forest awhile ago. Good thing is, we saw you, Kaiji and Tsuichi. Or else, something might happen to the three of you," said Asuka as she explained everything to Johan.

"Thanks. Hey, where is Judai and the others?" asked Johan.

"Judai and the others are…" Kenzan has been cut off by a sudden knock on the door. Kenzan opened the door and he was surprised when he saw Blade and Xander.

Blade suddenly punched Kenzan in the stomach and went inside. Xander sent a smoke bomb and everything turns into smoke. And when the smoke cleared, Johan and Sho quickly helped Kenzan up. When Johan turns back, he noticed that Asuka is missing. Johan, Sho and Kenzan all have the same thing in mind, 'Blade and Xander!'

Suddenly, Johan noticed a paper on the floor and picked it. When he unfolded the paper, he read it. It says:

You must go to the forest, Johan Anderson and Judai Yuki.

Bring your Mystical Gods with you, or else, Miss Tenjoin will get hurt.

-Dark Duelists

'This is not good. I must get Judai, QUICKLY!' Johan thought to himself as he clenched his fist.

"What is on the paper, Johan?" said Sho.

"Sho, where is Judai and the others? I need to find him," said Johan seriously, not answering Sho's question.

"They're in the forest--" Sho was cut off as Johan run as fast as he could to the forest. "Wait, Johan!" Sho shouted but it was too late. Johan ran without stopping. Sho sighed and saw the paper Johan was holding awhile ago. He read it and was shocked. He followed Johan to the forest, quickly.

Meanwhile, while Johan was running through the corridor, he suddenly bumped into someone. Both he and the student fell off the floor. When Johan opened his eyes, he was surprised to see, Judai.

"JUDAI! Come with me. I'll explain everything later," Johan said dragging Judai to the forest.

--in the forest--

"Where are those guys?" said Xander.

Suddenly a hooded figure appeared in front of them. "Shadow-dono!" Blade and Xander exclaimed and just bow down before the figure.

"Where are those duelists? They are supposed to be here now," said the hooded figure with a mad face towards the two.

Suddenly Judai and Johan appeared and they activated their duel disks. Judai first spoke.

"I won't forgive you Shadow! Come on, let's duel!"

"Alright, then. I've been waiting so long to duel you seriously, Yuki Judai," said the hooded figure with a smirk and he also activated his duel disk.

"But Shadow-dono--" Blade said but was interrupted by Xander.

"Don't worry, Blade. Shadow-dono can take care of those two,"

Blade looked at Xander and back into his master, hoping he will win.

"DUEL!"

Judai- 4000 LP

Johan- 4000 LP

Shadow- 8000 LP

Before anyone can draw, Shadow removed his coat and revealed to be a duelist with a silver mask. Judai and Johan were surprised by this. Shadow put his left hand with his duel disk up to the sky. And suddenly their surroundings turns to a darkness theme. Judai and Johan were confused on what's going on.

"In this duel, we're going to play the Dark Game! This game is a very special game. It's not the Dark Game you played before Judai. This Dark Game has a different rule. We are going to follow the Life-or-Death duel. Just like what happen in the Different World. But in the end of the duel, there will be a judgement rule whether the winner will get their opponent's ace card or die. So, it's your turn," Shadow explained, again, with a smirk.

"Fine, I'll draw! Get ready for this, Shadow!" said Judai as he look at his cards in his hand.

"First, I play Polymerization to fuse E-hero Avian (ATK 1600/DEF 1400) and E-hero Burstlady (ATK 1200/DEF 800) in my hand to summon E-hero Flame Wingman (ATK 2100/DEF 1200)! Next, E-hero Flame Wingman with E-hero Sparkman (ATK 1600/DEF 1400) to summon E-hero Shining Flare Wingman (ATK 2500/DEF 2100)! Lucky for you, it can't attack yet. So I'll end my turn with two face-downs."

"My turn. Draw! I summon Gem Beast Topaz Tiger (ATK 1600/DEF N/A) in attack mode and I end my turn with a facedown," said Johan.

"Good. Draw!" said Shadow. When he drew the card, it's like he pick his sword. And he performs a slash towards Judai and Johan. Judai and Johan received the slash and they hurt badly. Judai realizes that drawing-of-the-card technique.

'That technique. It's impossible. No one can perform that technique, except a…' Judai didn't say the word but he was completely shock as it looks familiar to him.

"I face two cards face-down and I end my turn," said Shadow.

"Alright, my turn! Draw! Now, E-hero Shining Flare Wingman, attack Shadow!" said Judai as he commanded his monster to attack. Suddenly, the face-down card of Shadow activated.

"Not so fast, Judai! I activate my face-down card, Magic Cylinder! With its effect, instead of my Life Points taking the damage, it will be you who will take the damage for me!" said Shadow as the attack points of E-hero Shining Flare Wingman decreased Judai's Life Points into 1500.

Judai- 1500

"Judai! Are you alright?" Johan asked trying to go to help Judai. But was blocked by a Dark Shield (see below for explanation).

"Ha! No one must move from their positions. If you do, well you will be electrocuted by the Dark Shield," said Shadow as he burst out with laughter.

Johan looked at Shadow, gritted his teeth and clenched his fist as he was annoyed by Shadow's statement. He really doesn't like Dark Games like this. He doesn't want people, especially those who are important to him, get hurt just because of his favorite game used in a dark force.

Then a minute passed after the attack of E-hero Shining Flare Wingman, Judai suddenly woke up weakly.

"Johan… don't… underestimate… Shadow. He is a… very powerful duelist," said Judai weakly to Johan and gave him a thumbs up and says, "And don't worry, Johan! I'm fine!"

Johan smiled in return and nodded to Judai. His face turned to Shadow with a serious face. 'I don't know anything about your identity or your skill as a duelist, but I will try to defeat you to save my friend from danger,' Johan thought to himself.

"Alright let's continue this duel! Draw! I summon Gem Beast Amethyst Cat (ATK 1200/DEF N/A) in attack position. And I put a card face-down. I end my turn."

"It's my turn. Draw!" said Shadow as he did again the slash he did awhile ago that made Judai and Johan suffer in pain. Shadow just love to let his opponent suffer first, before they can taste his power.

"I activate my face-down card, Graceful Charity. Because of its effect, I can draw three new cards from my deck and discard two cards," said Shadow as he drew the card he has been finally waiting for (Chaos King Dragon- Envoy of the End). He smirked and finally discards his two cards.

"I special summon, Chaos King Dragon- Envoy of the End (ATK 3000/DEF 2500). The cards I discarded awhile ago are Different Dimension Dragon and Dragon Zombie. And by the effect of my Chaos King Dragon, if I remove a Light and a Dark monster from my graveyard, I can special summon it on my field. And I removed Different Dimension Dragon and Dragon Zombie to special summon this card. Now attack, Chaos King Dragon! Attack Gem Beast Amethyst Cat!" said Shadow as he saw Gem Beast Amethyst Cat being destroyed by his Chaos King Dragon.

He then laughs after the monster of Johan went to the graveyard. Shadow, as you can see, is a guy who is really a cold-hearted. He like to see the monsters of his opponent being destroyed by his monster, he likes his opponent to feel suffer and he likes to play his own Dark Game even though it's just a normal duelist. Johan's Life Points becomes 2200.

Johan- 2200

"I end my turn with two face-downs," said Shadow.

Judai and Johan are very tired of Shadow's drawing play. Whenever Shadow will draw a card, a slash will hit Judai and Johan together that make them suffer. Somehow, for Judai, it seems he's used to this kind of suffer before. He doesn't know why, but he's used to it.

Episode 29

Second Period

--outside the arena—

Sho and Kenzan run as fast as they could to catch up with Johan, but he was no where to be found. They looked around Duel Academy, but they didn't found him. Then suddenly a big explosion appeared deep in the forest. Both of them hurried in the forest thinking that maybe Johan is there.

They're almost there, but the duelists with black cloak suddenly appeared and blocked their way. Those duelists told Sho and Kenzan that they must not interfere the battle of their master. But instead of just standing there, Sho and Kenzan activated their duel disks and summon their ace cards and let them attack the duelists. Then suddenly, the others, Manjyome, Fubuki, Misawa, Kaiji, Tsuichi, Shawran, Jim and O'Brien came and helped Sho and Kenzan battle against those duelists.

--back to the duel of Johan, Judai and Shadow--

It's Judai's turn but he is still not drawing any single card. 'I experienced this kind of feeling before, but why?'

"Judai, it's your turn," said Johan as he looked confused why Judai hasn't drawn any card yet.

"What?" said Judai snapping out of his thoughts.

"I said it's your turn. Come on, we're waiting," said Johan.

"Oh, sorry!" Judai tried to put a fake laugh and scratch his head as he looked at Johan.

Judai just decided to continue the duel rather than thinking about that thing all over again.

"Alright! Draw! I put a card face-down. And I summon E-hero Clayman (ATK 800/DEF 2000) in defense mode. I end my turn."

"Ore no turn! Draw!" said Johan as he look at the card. He smirk suddenly, and he look at Shadow.

"I place a card face-down. I end my turn,"

"Draw!" Shadow did again the slash-drawing technique. And it hurt Judai and Johan badly and the both of them knelt down with their right knee up.

As Shadow looked at his card, he smiled in triumph. Judai and Johan are confused why Shadow is like that.

"The both of you will really love this card. I sacrifice my Chaos King Dragon and all my monsters on my deck to summon my own ultimate Mystical God!" said Shadow when suddenly a knight with dark clothing, with lightning sparks surrounding it, with darkness attitude (duh!), and a red eyes.

Judai and Johan are surprised that Shadow also has a Mystical God like them. The both of them have never seen a card like this dark before.

"I want to introduce to the both of you, my ultimate ace card, Lotus, the Dark God (ATK ?/DEF ?)!" said Shadow as he laughs evilly. Judai and Johan are very surprised by the look of the Dark God.

"Lotus meet the heroes, and heroes meet your doom!" said Shadow as he laugh again.

'At last, me and Johan already know what the last Mystical God is. I'll make sure that me and Johan will also summon our ultimate Mystical God so that we may know the true power of the Dark God,' Judai thought to himself again. He knows that Johan is thinking the same thing, so he will really try his best to win this duel, for Asuka.

"I will not attack yet. It's your turn, Judai!"

"Alright! Draw!" Judai smiled at the card he just drew and he looked at Shadow.

"Alright! Let's get this game on! I sacrifice all my monsters on my deck and on my field to summon, Neo, the Elemental God (ATK ?/DEF ?)!" said Judai as a knight with an armor-like suit, had very sharp sword, had long cape and, of course, a hero attitude. Johan and even Judai are surprised to see what Neo, the Elemental God looks like. But instead of worrying about the Mystical God's effect, Shadow just smirked and hoping to see the real power of it.

"Wow! Cool card, Judai!" said Johan as he still looks at Neo, the Elemental God.

"Yeah! I never seen such a cool card like this before!" said Judai, excited to see its power.

"Ok. I won't attack yet, also. Your turn, Johan. And I hope you can also get your own Mystical God!" said Judai smiling at Johan and Johan smiled and also nodded in return.

"Ok, my turn. Draw!" Johan draws a card and gets his own Mystical God. "Yes! I sacrifice all my monsters on the field and on my deck to summon Spartan, the Light God!" Johan declared as a knight with a large katakana and held it in his left shoulder, had a light blue armor, also had a long cape like Neo, and a hero attitude.

A/N: Just look at Ichido's sword of Bleach, that's how Spartan's sword is

"Cool monster, Johan!"

"Thanks, Judai! Now, I won't attack," said Johan as he smiled.

"Ore no turn. Draw!" said Shadow as he did the slash-drawing technique. But, good thing, it didn't hurt Judai and Johan because of their Mystical Gods.

"I see that both of you are two of the chosen duelists to handle those Mystical Gods. Well, it won't last for long! I activate the effect of Lotus, the Dark God! By its effect, his attack points increase in 1000 points for each DARK-type monster on my graveyard. I have 20 of them in the graveyard. So its attack points increase to 20000 points!"

"Wow! It also has an effect like that? Well, Neo and Spartan also have the same effect, you know. It also increases their attack points by the number of Elemental-Heroes in my graveyard and Light monsters in Johan's graveyard!"

A/N: In this duel, all of the Gem Beast monsters are in the graveyard, unlike their special effect that they can't be sent to the graveyard but they will just stay in the field in Johan's spell/trap card zones. However, Johan told them that they will be sent to the graveyard for their own good to special summon Spartan, the Light God. MY MAIN POINT IS: THE GEM BEASTS ARE IN THE GRAVEYARD, NOT ON THE FIELD.

"Now attack, Lotus, the Dark God! Death Impact!"

Judai and Johan looked at each other and nodded. Both of them agreed to attack Lotus, the Dark God together with their own Mystical God.

"Neo, the Elemental God attack! Elemental Sword Slash!"

"You too, Spartan, the Light God! Sword of Light!"

The three Mystical Gods attacked at the same time and causes a very big light that all of the duelists (including the gang, Blade and Xander, those duelists with black cloak, and even Judai, Johan and Shadow) have to shield themselves with their arms in front of their faces.

They didn't know that, that light has some connection to their new adventure. The whole gang (Judai, Johan, Sho, Kenzan, Fubuki, Manjyome, Jim, O'Brien, Amon, Misawa, Kaiji, Tsuichi, and Shawran), and the Dark Duelists disappeared into the light and they went to a very mysterious place they have never seen before.
