DH: This is the final chapter, thank you all for reading. All I can say is enjoy
Ch 13: New changes
Several months later
Zoey
was sleep on her own bed under the confronting light of the
moon.
Atemu the guardian angel had come back to Zoey's dream to
tell her something important.
(Zoey's dream third person)
Zoey had nice dream for once she was dancing on moon with mysterious man who made her feel safe and secure, just she felt in her father's arms as the CWS was destroyed.
Zoey saw Atemu appeared. Atemu saw Zoey was happy but he about to deliver news that was going made her sad. Which Atemu don't want to do it but it had to be done. "Have you to come to join us Atemu?" asked Zoey dancing with a mysterious man. Atemu looked unhappy, Zoey stopped whatever she doing "what's wrong Atemu? Why do you look sad?" she asked. "I have to leave, Zoey," he said slowly. "For how long?" she asked him worried.
"Forever" said Atemu looking away from Zoey. "You mean I am never going to see you again?" asked Zoey. Atemu looked at her and nodded his head reluctantly.
Zoey bowed her head down "Why?" she asked. "Because things change you'll grown older and you won't need me anymore," said Atemu. "But Atemu I do need you, you're like a brother to me" said Zoey.
"I'm sorry Zoey I have to help other people so I'll, say farewell for the last time," said Atemu. "Atemu if you're going leave forever can I ask for one last hug?" asked Zoey trying to hold back her tears. Atemu nodded his head; Zoey and Atemu hugged each for the last time.
A single tear ran down Atemu's cheek, then he let go of Zoey "Bye Atemu I never forget you," said Zoey in tears. "I won't forget you either," said Atemu he was in tears too but he turned away for her so she won't see him. "Just remember do not give up fighting, Zoey you will reach your dream someday just be patient," said Atemu. Zoey nodded, Atemu disappeared, and that was last time Zoey saw Atemu.
Several years later
Despite Zoey's wish she had blossomed into a beautiful healthy woman. Steven would not trade it anything of it for second because she was a lot happier, than before. There were no more agents or Dr. Whitman to ruin her life and that was an encouraging thought.
Kaiba decided to take another vacation but this time he throw another duel monster tournament just for old time sakes. Of course, there was new technology, now of course to promote the company in the tournament. By creating duel disks that were the sizes of a small bracelet.
Mai joined so did Joey, Yugi also joined, so did must of Domino city for battle city tournament, number ten.
Mai did pretty good she was in 6th place but some random dude named George come changed that and defeated her. "It's okay Dedi you'll get him next time," said Zoey.
For the first time Mai actually happy she lost, Zoey went to confront Mai that she saw George comment about an easy victory to his buddies, that just ticked Zoey's nerves and they weren't happy comments either.
"Man what a waste time that Valentine girl has the duel talent of my grandmother," said George. Mai got hurt but Zoey got madder, "You have no right to talk my sister like that," snapped Zoey looking up at George because he was taller.
"Hey boys look it's a little pixie," said George as if he talking to five year old as he clutched a beer can in his fists. "Pixie!" shouted Zoey. "She sure is a fine pixie," said one George's friends.
Zoey saw the weird look in George friend's as she did in agent Dark when he was alive. "I say whatever I want Tinkerbelle so move it," said George. Zoey smelled something she never smelled before the smell of alcohol.
"Come on Zoey let's go and leave these drunken monkeys," said Mai. "No Dedi that guy offended you and I'm going do something about it," said Zoey. "How about I challenge you to duel," she said with her arms crossed George laughed. Stopping to catch his breath, he then said "yeah right."
"What are you scared this 'pixie' will win? And kick your butt," Zoey said with a 'don't mess with me' grin. Mai raised her eyebrows she remembered seeing that somewhere in her past but she could not remember where.
George, grinned throwing his beer can behind him. "Watch me squash this pixie to dust guys," said George. George and Zoey went dueling arena.
"Pixies go first," said George "that's fine with me" said Zoey giving him a narrow stare.
(A/N this duel is going be in R/P format)
Both Zoey and George start at 4000 lifepoints.
Zoey: First I place a monster face down and put face down card your move
George: First, I put which face down card and then I attack with Witty phantom (1400).
Zoey: Bad move because you just attacked my wall of illusion which has 1850 defense points which means you lost 450 life points and also returns Witty phantom to your hand.
George: oh yeah I play a trap card it's called major riot here it works when a monster was returned from the field to the hand. We both return all monsters on the field to each side of the field to each player's hand and we put the same number monsters on the field. I'll then summon la jinn the mystical genie of the lamp (1800) and I'll add a magic card it's, call dark energy it adds attack points so that makes my monster have 2100.
Zoey: All right, I'll put another face down monster card, and put another face down card. In addition, end my turn
George: I'll attack again
Zoey: I guess monkeys never learn because you fell for the same thing you attacked my big shield Guardna (2600) causing you to lose 500 life points. Now have 3050 life points left.
George: Yes, you forgot that once big Guardna is attacked it switches into attack position.
Zoey: You forget that now your turn is over and now it is my turn, so I sacrifice my big shield Guardna to summon Dark Magician Girl (2000) then I'll activate a magic card it's called Mystical plasma zone. What it does is it increases a dark type monster by 500 but it decreases the defense by 400 it's small price but it's worth it. That's not all I play another magic card its called Eternal rest it destroys all monster with equipped cards that includes your la jinn. "Which means your life point is completely open for a direct attack. Therefore, your life points are now 550.
George was furious this unknown woman was wiping the floor with him. "Not bad for Pixie huh?" said Zoey with a grin on her face.
George: you haven't won yet I play swords of revealing lights, which means you can't attack for three turns.
Zoey: fine
After three turns, they both managed to summon three-face down monsters. Now it was Zoey's turn.
Zoey: I put one face down card and end my turn
George: I play pot of greed now my swords are destroyed so I play my ace in the hole Zera ritual which let's me summon Zera the Mant (2800), thanks your magic card (mystic plasma zone is field card) it gains an extra 500 point which it is now has 3300. Which unfortunately for your Dark Magician Girl is enough to destroy her, which means you, lose 800 life points. I end my turn.
Zoey: you're not the only one with an ace in the hole, I sacrifice my two-face monster to summon Tri horned dragon (2850) the field that's not all it gains 500 attack points which means now it has (3350), therefore, you lose points 50 life points.
George: (smirking at Zoey) big deal I still 500 life points left.
Zoey:
not anymore cause active a trap card called Ceasefire it flips
all face down monsters on each side the field and for every effect
monster card it decrease your life by 500. I see you had two-effect
monster, which means you lose life points 1000 means you lose.
(End of duel)
(Back to story format)
Oh, How Zoey wished that Atemu her guardian angel saw the duel she won. He would have proud of her but he was gone forever or lease she thought he was because in the roaring crowd Zoey could swore that she saw Atemu cheering her on by giving her a thumbs up.
Zoey looked back wide-eyed but when she blinked, he was gone. Zoey franticly searched the crowd and Atemu was not there she smiled and laughed at herself 'great I'm going nuts' she thought.
Zoey went to George "How about you apologize to my sister or do I have to teach you another lesson, jerk," said Zoey to George. "I'm sorry," he mumbled. Zoey gave George a teacher look.
"Alright I'm sorry geez let's move boys," said George. Mai looked at Zoey "where did you learn to duel like that?" she asked her sister. "Oh I picked up from someone else," said Zoey.
"I'm sure that you have could wipe the floor with that monkey, you were just unlucky that's all," Zoey with smile. Mai smiled in part, she taken this loss badly and began to have nightmares, now it was no big deal.
After the tournament and for the first time Joey Wheeler was number one duelist.
(A/N: I had throw one of my muses a bone) (Kaiba throws bone at Joey's head). That's not what I meant.)
When Joey finally beat Kaiba at dueling, everyone was expecting Seto Kaiba get all angry and demand a rematch right away. However, Seto let it go, throw a party for top ten players in tournament.
That when Pegasus taught people to play a game called, "karaoke dress up." Basely like regular karaoke but you dress up for the song. First Mai and Joey got first sang "Broken" by Seether and Amy Lee dressed in black and heavy makeup, that was very romantic.
Joey, Pegasus, Yugi had go next with "when you're jet," a song from West Side Story they dressed as thugs pointing plastic knifes.
Some people laughed, but not as much next number, which was by Kaiba. Kaiba wore a disco suit made his hair to look like a fro and then sang horribly to Footloose.
"Footloose, footloose kick off your Sunday shoes" sang Kaiba while doing some disco moves. (A/N: this was an idea I had from a drem)
Everyone kind shocked to see Kaiba doing this, everyone, didn't know what to say when Pegasus said, "Well that just made me look straight."
That's when everyone blast out laughing. Now it was Zoey's turn she dressed in a sparking dress she sang softly but sweetly to "wing beneath my wings".
Zoey then saw man that looked kind of familiar; he was almost as tall as Kaiba brownish sort of skin black raven hair and violent eyes, she remember seeing a picture of him in Kaiba's secret vault but he was younger looking in these pictures.
However, Zoey also remembered how she danced with him on the moon in her dreams. Zoey now remembered his name 'Mokuba,' she thought.
It was Mokuba he was now grew up, when Zoey was done, everyone cheered. Mokuba garbed Zoey's hand said some French and kissed her hand, Zoey do not say anything all she did was blush.
Mokuba said some comments about Zoey telling how beautiful she looked, which she didn't know how to react because she wasn't used to people saying these nice things about her before.
Mokuba then asked if they met before, Seto Kaiba then a band dimmed the lights it was time for slow dancing.
Mokuba taught Zoey how to dance, when she was near him she felt safe and secure as she did in the dream with the mysterious man. Kaiba looked happy that they had both found each other.
After a while, Zoey and Mokuba fell in love with each other, Mokuba had the patience and love Zoey, needed. In addition, Zoey had warmth and caring that Mokuba needed.
One day Steve and Pegasus went to where the CWS used to be, and, went in underground tunnel where Steven hid one machine that had the ability to bring back from the dead into their world without being by eating worms and stuff.
"Agent Pegasus you joined the CWS to bring Celica back and well I'm going to make that wish come true but when we bring her back we have to destroy the machine afterward," said Steven.
"Why?" asked Pegasus. "Because people will find machine come and bring someone like Hitler from the grave, plus I don't like playing God," answered Steven. Pegasus wanted Celia back then realized that she was happier wherever she was. Pegasus found something in his pocket a rusty statue that he took from Kaiba all these years back. Pegasus smiled knowing whom to bring back, "how about we bring someone else back," he said.
Zoey had left from a party, but instead of heading home she went next door to see what going on over at Yugi's house.
The first thing Zoey heard was tears, "Yugi is everything…?," asked Zoey, as she went into the living room. Zoey could hardly believe her eyes.
"Zoey is that you?" he asked there he was, this time he was no longer figment of her imagination, so he didn't have wings this time ether but it didn't matter to Zoey he looked the same. Atemu was standing there in the living room.
Zoey ran and hugged her used to be guardian angel, "Atemu!... I missed you," said Zoey. "I missed you too, you have grown up quite beautifully," said Atemu.
(A/N: did you actually think I was going let go of him again he, he) "How were you… how did you?" asked Zoey speechless.
Atemu pointed to Pegasus with his eyes whom had been standing in the hallway, "Uncle Peg, thank you, I don't know how you did it, thank you from bottom of my heart," said Zoey now hugging Pegasus. He was happy bringing Atemu back, Yugi was completely confused to what going on when he came into the house.
However, Zoey explained everything to him and any one else who did not knows.
Few years later Zoey got job in N.A.S.A and which finally fulfilled her dream of walking on the moon. In addition, became the first person whom had special gift on moon. (A/N: at lease, I think so)
Zoey's story was taught in schools around the world, to gave hope everyone the hope that if you don't give up anything is possible. When the reporters asked her if there one thing she wanted to remember by she said this "please remember that I am no longer just an experiment or a project, please remember my name is Zoey Valentine"
