Chapter 60: Future's Hope
-ooo-
Back in Shade's office, they were waiting for anything or something to happen.
Ginny then replied, "Why isn't he going away?"
Shade then replied, "He's my son and I protect a aura of protection on him to make him non-banishable unless I release it."
Kelly then replied, "Should of known."
Ginny looked a him and replied, "Why did you come back to our time for anyway?"
Shade then replied, "I decided to come back from the future and come here so we can get a early start on taking over the city. The faster the city will be ours, the better we'll be. We want you all crushed and smashed to bits."
Kelly then replied, "We took out all of your men and you're the only duelist left and you'll won't last enough against us."
Shade looked at her and replied, "I wish you stayed with us. You were one tough women in our ranks and the best duelist I ever seen in my years of running my gang."
Kelly then replied, "I don't really care about your gang anymore and I'm glad to be back on the side of the beasts now, asshole. I'm happy where I am and you and no one else will ever bring me away from my team..EVER!"
Slade groaned and replied, "I knew she had a ego, but who knew it would be that large, dad."
Shade then replied, "Whatever you say. I want to duel your Unicorn army, Kelly! My deck can crush anything you send my way!"
Kelly then replied, "Fine with me. I can't wait to duel you."
Shade nodded and replied, "Sounds good and we'll duel infront of your group outside of your HQ so they can watch and I'll prove the beasts that I am the true champion. I'll be around in a day, so rest up and prepare for your demise, fools!"
Suddenly, he and Slade vanished into black smoke and Kelly sighed and replied, "I hope I can beat her."
Sebastian looked at her and replied, "You'll do just fine, Kelly. Your deck is awesome and you'll do just fine."
Lelly sighed and replied, "I should make sure and make it a bit better then before."
-ooo-
Meanwhile after the girls left and they returned, Slade and Shade were talking about the next duel.
Slade then replied, "I can't wait to finally to see this deck of yours, dad. I've been waiting and waiting for you to use it."
Shade nodded and replied, "You'll pleased to know that it kicks the ass of my old one."
"I Remember that. It was a 6 Attribute dragon deck that focused on the Dragon Rulers and their kids..before they got banned."
"I liked that deck and after the rulers were put 1 per deck and Return from the Different Dimension and the babies were banned, I gave up on it and wanted to make a new deck and I've been working on it for about 2 weeks now and it hasn't been easy, but I'm now proud of this deck now and I can't wait to crush those girls with it tomorrow."
"I believe in you, dad. You'll make me proud and our future members proud as well. We'll cream them Fighters and return home as champions!"
"Darn right, son. Darn right."
-ooo-
Back in the lair, Sebastian was talking with Carly on a video phone Shade installed for them to use to tell them about the duel that was going on.
Carly then replied, "He will only duel outside of the casino while we all watch and keep a close eye on them?"
Sebastian nodded and replied, "Yes, dear. He will only duel if we do all what he asked for."
Carly nodded and replied, "Sounds good to me. I know Kelly won't lose the duel. She has a great deck."
Kelly nodded and replied, "My beasts are ready to go."
Carly then replied, "We're going to finally take down the leader of the Savage Beasts! This our dream duel and when he's gone, we win and the future is ours!"
Christina then replied, "It'll be awesome. You all better have soldiers hidden away in the casino just in case he trys to bring in anymore troops from the future."
Carly then replied, "We thought of that already and we're training some new recruits in now."
"Sounds good, honey."
Carly nodded and replied, "We'll win the duel and we'll finally find out who killed your mother, Christina. We knew it was one of the Savage Beasts, but none of the ones we capture already are any suspects!"
Christina sighed and replied, "Thank you for all the help with this, Carly."
Carly then repleid, "Glad me and my team can help you all out, Christina. You're a great duelist and we're so damn lucky to have you, Kelly and your dad helping us out right now."
Lucas then replied, "We'll do anything we can to help out right now, Carly. We can't wiat to him to tell us everything we needed to know!"
Carly then replied, "Lets hope he does speak. See you here later."
The phione turned off and Sebastian nodded and replied, "Almost time to go."
Kelly then replied, "Can't wait to finally take Shade down."
-ooo-
Back in Colton's house in Duluth, Colton, Zander and the other two beasts were talking about what was going on with the beasts while enjoying some drinks and were pointed towards Lake Superior.
Zander took a few sips of his glass of Cherry Coke and he replied, "So, all there's left is to duel is that guy Shade and no one else?"
Colton then replied, "Thats what Slade told me a few minutes of go, dude. He and Shade are the only ones left.
Zander laughed and replied, "I knew those assholes couldn't bring them at all. At least they won't be coming for us at all."
A female beast that was sent to watch them (and named Tatiana) nodded and replied, "Thank god for that one. I hated Shade so damn much and I'm glad he's running out of people, because I refuse to help him for everything he did to us to make our lives miserable."
The other beast (A guy named James) nodded and replied, "No joke, Tatiana. I hated that jerk so much for everything he made us do. He never wanted us to be higher then apprentices and assistants to higher members. We both have a great deck and we can take their crappy ones down at any time and anywhere as well."
Colton then replied, "Thank god for that."
Suddenly, a holagraph of Shade appeared infront of their table, scaring the gang a bit and Zander replied, "Why to make a entrance, Shade."
Shade then replied, "Whatever, dude. We have a large screen TV in Colton's living room that'll be turned into the duel if you want to watch my duel against that Kelly girl tomorrow night. My deck rocks and will destroy hers as well!."
Zander sighed and replied, "Fine, we'll watch the duel and see how it goes. They won't come after us if you're defeated, will they?"
Shade then replied, "Not at all, Zander. They'll stay put."
Colton then replied, "Thank god for that. I don't need those losers coming and make life hell for me and my pals, Shade."
Shade sighed and replied, "It won't be happening at all. Got to go now."
Suddenly, his hologram vanished and Zander looked at the gang and replied, "We watching the duel?"
James smiled evily and replied, "Damn right we are. It'll be great to watch that douchebag lose a tough duel against the unicorn girl."
Tatiana nodded and replied, "Can't wait either."
Zander got up and replied, "I'm heading to the shore to get my deck ready just in case I have to duel anyone. Good night, gang."
He found the stairs that lead to the shoreline and Tatiana then replied, "He's staying really calm for some reason."
Colton then replied, "Wierd, but as long as he's not bothering us, who cares."
-ooo-
Later that night at the shore, Zander was looking through his deck while watching the waves come up on shore to relax his mind.
He replied, "If they do come for me, I should be ready for anything. My deck is the real deal and will be ready to use them!"
"All are humans as pathetic as you are, you foolish human?", a voice said.
Zander looked around and replied, "I must be losing my mind right now. No one is around."
"I right behind you, you idiot!", the voice said.
Zander turned around and he saw a shadowy human-shaped creature and Zander replied, "Who the fuck are you?"
Suddenly, the shadowy aura vanished and looked like a red-skinned human and he replied, "I'm a demon from hell, foolish human."
Zander then replied, "What the hell you want from me?"
The demon replied, "Your current deck is really bad and I have some cards that'll help you win any duel and no one has ever heard of them either!"
Zander then replied, "I don't care about your cards. My deck is good enough."
The demon sighed as a small black box appeared infront of him and the demon replied, "Check these cards out and see if any of them look good to you!"
Zander looked through the box and he replied, "Holy shit! These cards are the real deal! I'll take them."
The demon smirked and replied, "I'll help you with these cards and my power and you'll be able to use my powers from the gates of hell to trully take over the world from here and in the future, Zander!"
Zander smiled and replied, "Merge with me so we can be more powerful then ever!"
The demon nodded and replied, "Exactly what I wanted to here from you. Do not tell this to your friends at all. Its between us and thats it. You spoil it now and you'll burn alive."
Zander then replied, "Fair deal."
The demon nodded as he merged with Zander and he glowed black & red for a minute and then the glow went away and Zander laughed and replied, "Time for me to be more powerful then ever!"
-ooo-
Later that next night, everyone was outside and waiting for Shade to come.
Kelly then replied, "Come and get us, fool."
Suddenly, Shade & Slade appeared in a cloud of thick smoke and Shade replied, "Pleasure to meet you at last, Carly."
Carly then replied, "I wish the same could be said about you, Shade. You've given me and our group nothing but trouble ever since you arrived here! We're tired of it and we'll be finally glad to be rid of you and your gang!"
Shade then replied, "Lets hope your lady is ready to duel."
Kelly raised her disk in the air and replied, "Always ready to duel, dummy."
Carly then replied, "Before it begins, we'll add another gamble."
Shade then repleid, "I'm all ears."
"If you win, we'll let everyone of your gang members out and if we we win, you must tell us something you should know."
"Which is what?"
Christina then replied, "We want to know who killed my mom Valarie years ago."
Shade then replied, "One of my beasts commited a murder without me knowing? Damn."
Carly then replied, "Don't play dumb with us, Shade. You know who it was!"
Slade then replied, "I don't have the slighest clue who did it."
"The suspect that gunned her down had beast tattoos all over both of his arms and his buddy was arrested while he got away."
Slade then replied, "They're talking about Reggie, dad."
Shade nodded and replied, "Thats right. Who was with him that night?"
"I have no clue at all, dad. It could of been any of our members."
Carly sighed and replied, "We already asked all of your captured people and they don't know either as well!"
Shade then replied, "I might know a few members of my gang you don't know about hiding in Minnesota and I will any spill the beans if you beat me in a duel, Kelly."
Kelly then replied, "Fine with me. Lets get this duel on."
Both nodded as they both activated their disks and drew 5 cards apiece.
"Game on!", both yelled out.
(Shade LP: 8000 - Kelly LP: 8000)
Shade drew a card and replied, "I'll set a monster and 1 card facedown and that'll end my turn now."

Suddenly, its card appeared above its head and it began to turn around and Shade and replied, "It'll began to turn and when it stops, it gets a effect depending if its upside down and right-side up."
