Chapter 26: Saving the Astral and Human Worlds from utter Destruction

After Chaos disappeared completely, the ground began to rumble. All of a sudden, Yuma woke up.

"What?! What's happening?" asked a shocked Yuma.

"I have no idea Yuma!" Astral shouted over the looked through his deck box, and found his Over-Hundred and Chaos Over-Hundred inside.

"Hmm..." Shark muttered. The two Number cards began to glow a bluish color.

Shark looked through his deck box, and found his Over-Hundred and Chaos Over-Hundred inside.

"Hmm..." Shark muttered. The two Number cards began to glow a bluish color. Shark lifted Number C101: Silent Honor DARK above his head.

"I summon you Number C101: Silent Honor DARK!" Shark shouted. Then, the dimensional rift began to open, revealing Chaos in his Energy Form. Sharks' eyes widened.

"Chaos!" Shark shouted angrily. "How are you still here?!" Chaos began to laugh. Shark narrowed his eyes in anger and frustration. Chaos then flinched at the sight at C101, which Shark smirked at that. Shark then looked at the other former Barian Emperors. They nodded in agreement.

"Come out Number C103: Ragnafinity!" Rio shouted as the her Chaos Over-Hundred Number came out its card.

"I call upon you Number C104: Umbral Horror Masquerade!" Vector shouted. Alito, Girag, Mizar and Michael brought out their Chaos Over-Hundred Numbers as well. Chaos flinched yet again.

"Uh-oh..." Chaos gasped. Dumon took out his Chaos Over-Hundred Number.

"I summon you, Number C102: Archfiend Seraph!" shouted Dumon. Shark smiled.

"The Barian Emperors are back together again." Shark smiled.

"Indeed." Rio smiled, as well as Dumon, who was feeling much better. Then, the eight former Barian Emperors pointed at Chaos.

"Goodbye Chaos!" Shark shouted. "C101, attack Chaos!" Silent Honor DARK began twirling his spear and began to strike Chaos, but not before his fellow Chaos Over-Hundred Numbers did same.

"Go Ultimate Chaos Slash!" Shark ordered. The Chaos Over-Hundred Numbers attacked Chaos at the same time.

"NO!" Chaos screamed, then his Energy Form exploded into the nothing. The dimensional rift that Chaoss' energy created began to close.

"Hey, the dimensional rift is closing!" Trey said excitedly. Astral smiled.

"Good." Astral said with a smile on his face. Kite then turned to face Mizar, who nodded. Kite then raised up his Number card.

"Come on out Number 62!" Kite shouted. Mizar raised his right hand, holding out 3 cards.

"I summon Galaxy-Eyes Full Armor Photon Dragon, Number 95: Galaxy-Eyes Dark Mater Dragon, and Number C107: Neo-Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon!" Mizar shouted, and the three said dragons appeared. Dumon also took out a card from his deck box.

"I summon you Number 44: Sky Pegasus!" he shouted. Rio turned toward her brother, who nodded to allow Rio to ride out of Astral World with Dumon. Everyone else hopped on a dragon that Kite and Mizar summoned, and the gang took off.

While the gang flew on the Galaxy-Eyes Dragons back to Earth, Dumon and Rio were farther ahead. Shark didn't mind his sister dating their best friend. He just felt a bit uneasy about it. Other than that, he was okay with it.

Meanwhile…

Dumon and Rio were riding on Sky Pegasus, not talking much. Dumon decided to turn around and try to talk to Rio.

"Rio, I-" Dumon started to say. Rio turned to face him.

"Yes Dumon?" Rio asked. "Is something wrong?" Dumon shook his head.

"Nothing's wrong." Dumon replied, a bit of uneasiness in his voice. Rio just shook her head in disbelief.

"Yeah right." Rio said with a smirk on her face. Dumon just stared at her with wide eyes.

"You know what I'm thinking, don't you?" asked Dumon. Rio nodded.

"Yes, I do." Rio replied, her curved her mouth into a friendly smile. Dumon smiled back. Both of their cheeks turned bright red. Rio then did something Dumon didn't expect. She grabbed his left shoulder and pulled him close. Dumons' eyes were still wide with shock and surprise.

"Ri-Rio?! Wha-what are you doing?!" Dumon cried out, shocked. Rio put her finger to his lips.

"Shh..." she whispered. Dumon nodded in agreement.

"Okay..." he whispered back. She then moved closer toward Dumons' face. Dumon stared in shock as Rios' lips touched his. Dumon was so shocked and surprised, he felt himself kissing her back. The kiss was a good, compassionate kiss. Rio then took her lips off of Dumons'. Dumon looked at Rio, who was smiling/blushing. Dumon had the same facial expression on his face.

"Where would you like to go Dumon?" Rio asked Dumon.

"I'm not sure." Dumon admitted. Rio put her hand to her chin.

"Hmm..." she muttered in deep thought. Then it came to her.

"I know! We could go to me and my brothers' old house!" she said, determinedly. Dumon nodded.

"Sounds like a plan to me." agreed Dumon.

"I'm pretty sure the rest of the gang are back at Earth by now." Rio said. Dumon nodded.

"Indeed." he agreed. And so, the two headed through the portal in the sky back to Earth.
