Chapter 79: The Meeting of More Childhood friend

We find ourselves into very foggy and dark place, Hinata Hyuga, in her Ra Yellow uniform, looking and searching for something or someone. After looking around, she finds who she was looking for.

Hinata calls out to the person, "Naruto!"

Yes, it was Naruto, in his usual clothing (AN: From the Naruto Shippuden series), wondering through the deserts, as time passes frozen mountains, and stormy forests.

Hinata places a smile on her lips as she runs towards him and she calls out, "Naruto, wait!" But some reason Naruto doesn't answer her.

Just then, 10 root ANBUs comes and grabs him by the arms. Naruto struggles to get free and yells out, angrily, "Hey let me go! I'm not going back to that damned village!"

Hinata gasps in shock and she says, stunned, "It's the root ANBU group!"

The ANBU comes in front of Naruto and he says, in a sneer, "Taking you back to the village!? Yeah right, demon!"

Naruto gasps in shock as well as Hinata and the ANBU captain says, "We're not taking you back to the village, we're here on the orders of Lady Hokage to kill you here and now."

Naruto yells out, shocked, "What!? Grandma Tsunade said that!"

Hinata yells out, shocked, "That's not true! Leave him alone!" Hinata activates her Byakugan and charges towards them, but all that happened was she went through them to her surprise.

The ANBU captain takes out his sword and attempts to kill Naruto, but he was stuck down by a flash of eerie green light. Everyone turns to see the same black cloaked figure from Kari's dream walking towards them.

The black cloaked figure waved his hand as he slashes the other ANBU members freeing Naruto. Naruto looks at the figure and he asks, perplexed, "Who the hell are you?"

The black cloaked figure says, with a dark tone, "I'm a friend attending you for help. But I am curious, why are you away from your homes?"

Naruto looks in the ground and he says, lowly, "There are some things that I don't want to be involved with and we'll just leave it at that."

The black cloaked figure says, in a plain tone, "You're running from those people you believe that they're your friends."

Naruto asks, in a serious tone, "What do you mean by that!? Of course, they're my friends!"

The black cloaked figure says, with an evil sly tone, "If you believe that they're your friends, then why are you running away from them?"

Naruto was taken back from this and the black cloaked figure says, with an evil sly tone, "Maybe, you believed that they won't help you or understand what you're going through. However, you're right, Naruto Uzumaki."

Naruto gasps in shock and he yells out, shocked, "How did you know my name!?"

The black cloaked figure says, with an evil sly tone, "I know many things about you! Naruto Uzumaki, age sixteen, former resident of the Leaf Village, and container of the Nine-Tailed Fox. When you were born, the spirit of the Nine-Tailed Fox was sealed within your body, but it cost the Fourth Hokage his life and you were supposed to be looked up as a hero. However, all you got was nothing but abuse, mistreated, and shunned from your fellow villages. Everyone ignored you, including your team captain Kakashi Hatake and so-called teammates, Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno."

Naruto yells out, seriously, "That's a lie!"

The black cloaked figure says, with an evil sly tone, "Oh really, then why did Kakashi Hatake train only Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno, but mostly Sasuke, while ignoring you completely. Why did Sakura Haruno praised only Sasuke, but not you when you did something right and called you a 'demon', comparing you to the Nine Tailed Fox, just like your former fellow Leaf Village residents?"

Naruto winched at this and the black cloaked figure says, with an evil sly tone, "Because is that Kakashi Hatake feared that if you get strong enough, then there will be no one to oppose you. That's why he ignored you, not only him, but Lady Tsunade and Jiraiya as well. They believed that you'll be too much of a threat in the future so they've decided to destroy you now, before it's too late. Even your friends from the Leaf Village, including Hinata Hyuga, believed that they'll be better off without you. All these time, they believed that you're just as the same as the Nine Tailed Fox, even after the great things you've done for them, fighting against Gaara of the Desert, trying to bring back Sasuke Uchiha with everything you've got, and many other things, which including the Akatsuki."

From the sidelines, Hinata heard this and she yells out, seriously, "That's not true, Naruto! Everyone was out looking for you, including those two traitors!"

Naruto was absorbing this information in and he says, seriously, "That's not true! You're lying!"

The black cloaked figure's eyes glows eerie green as Naruto is shown pictures of his friends from the Leaf Village, getting on with their lives without him, including Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, and even Hinata, which struck a huge blow to his pride, since he was starting to gain feelings for Hinata.

Naruto says, in a horrified tone, "No! This can't be real!"

The black cloaked figure slowly walks up to Naruto, stops in front of them, and he says, with an evil sly smile, "You see, my dear Naruto, Kakashi Hatake, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, even the others, and Hinata Hyuga never cared about you for the slightest."

Naruto says, with tears of sadness and anger in his eyes, "This can't be true! How could they? How could they abandon us like that?"

The black cloaked figure tells Naruto, with an evil sly smile and calm tone, "I'm afraid that this is true, Naruto. What your so-called friends and fellow ninja did to you is wrong, but you can make it right." When Naruto look up at him and he asks, in an interested tone, "How?"

The black cloaked figure replies, plainly, "Look below you." Naruto looked down to see one Orichalcos stone at his feet.

Naruto asks, in a curious tone, "What's that?"

The black figure replies, in an evil sly tone, "Pick it up and you will see. A gift that will finally make the ones that hurt you and show that Naruto Uzumaki bows down to nobody! Show them that you're different from the Nine Tailed Fox! Make Kakashi Hatake, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga and your so-called friends pay for abandoning you! And make sure that Sasuke Uchiha is placed in his place, under your foot!"

Hinata yells out, horrified, "Naruto, don't do it!" And then without thinking, Naruto picked up the emerald, but then took his shock it absorbed into his body.

Naruto exclaims, in a confusion, "What's going on?!" The eerie green energy transfers into the Naruto and they yell out as the evil energy surges through their bodies and the Seal of Orichalcos appears below their feet. After a few seconds, the seal fades away from Naruto's feet and the mark of the Orichalcos appears on his forehead with evil red in his eyes for a few seconds. After they fade away, the black cloaked figure tells Naruto, with an evil sly smile, "Welcome to our family, Naruto Uzumaki. You are now a warrior of the Orichalcos."

Naruto says, in an evil sly tone unlike him before, "Thank you, Master Dartz."

Hinata falls to her knees as tears came down her eyes and she yells out, horrified, "NARUTO NO!!" And then Hinata, in her bed and wearing white pajamas, wakes up from her dream in a cold sweat and breathing heavily. It was about 7:00 A.M. in the morning.

Then Hinata put her head down on her knees and began to cry, stating, "Naruto. Please, come back to us. Come back to me. I need you with me, Naruto." Hinata knew about the spirit of the Nine Tailed Fox from Lady Tsunade, but Hinata's feelings for Naruto didn't leave her at the slightest, but her anger and rage towards Naruto's former teammates and instructor as well as the rest of the villagers, who treated Naruto nothing but garbage, since he's the carrier of the Nine Tailed Fox and he was compared to it, was growing. She still wasn't talking to either Sasuke or Sakura and she stopped respecting Kakashi as a person for ignoring Naruto all the time. She hasn't forgiven them at all.

Hinata gets off her bed and walks towards the bathroom to prepare herself for the new day.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In the Spirit World, we find Koenma, in toddler form, sitting in his desk, during paperwork and the blue ogre, George dashes into the room and he yells out, horrified, "Koenma, sir!"

Koenma asks, curiously, "Ogre, what is it?"

George says, in a frantic tone, "Koenma, sir, it's bad really bad!"

Koenma asks, seriously, "Then, get on with it!"

George replies, seriously, "The soul that belonged to Light Yagami from limbo is missing!"

Koenma widened his eyes and he yells out, shocked and horrified, "What!?" Koenma tells George, seriously, "Ogre, you better not be lying!"

George shakes his head and he says, "I'm not, sir! Many of my fellow ogres saw him disappearing!"

Koenma jumps from his seat and he yells out, seriously, "Well, find it! We can't let it wander around Spirit World!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In the female part of the Obelisk Blue dorm, we find Keiko getting out of her room and walking down the hallways on her way to Obelisk Arena to watch the first duel of the school year.

Just then, Yami Keiko's voice calls out from Keiko's head, darkly, "So, any idea when are we going to make our move to stop that asshole's plans?!"

Keiko says, with a sigh and mentality, "You, again! Don't you have someone else to annoy!?"

Yami Keiko says, with a dark cold sly tone and telepathically, "I don't! I'm a part of you for life, remember!"

Keiko tells Yami Keiko, annoyed, "I'm trying not to!"

Yami Keiko says, darkly and coldly, "You know, ever since, we came here to this school, you haven't made one move to get your boyfriend and your friend from that bastard and I'm getting pretty bored, waiting!"

Keiko says, seriously, "Well, maybe, you should learn some patience! Besides, if that asshole knows that I've made my move to stop him, then he'd bound to look for an alternate plan. Plus, I want to see his face, again and show him what I feel about him messing with my life and most of all, playing with my best friend and the one that I love's heads and emotions, while using them as tools for his bidding."

Yami Keiko says, with a dark sly grin, "Wow, Kei! I didn't know that you had that kind of behavior inside of you! Maybe, you got it from me!"

Keiko says, drolly, "Don't flatter yourself!" Just then, Keiko bumped into someone and she says, embarrassingly, "Sorry!"

The person snaps at Keiko, in a cold annoyed tone, "Hey, watch where you're going, wench!"

Keiko looked at the person in question, which happened to be Kagome and Catherine, giving her a cold angered and annoyed as well as a heartless glares at the brunette.

Keiko says, lowly, "Kagome…"

Catherine gives off a cold huff as she pushed Keiko aside and she says, in a cold nasty tone with her Australian accent, "Get out of our way, mate!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "That's right! We're going to see our REAL friends! You know the ones that would never betray other like you have with my cousin, you traitorous whore!"

Keiko winces at this as Kagome and Catherine walk off, but Catherine wasn't expecting a painful blow to the face and thrown to the ground.

Kagome calls out, horrified, "Catherine!" Kagome turns to see the person that hit Kagome, which was Mina with a dark serious expression on her face.

Mina says, in a dark strong tone, "And there's plenty where that come from, bitch!"

Catherine shakes her head, as she placed her hand to the red mark on her face and looked at Mina. Kagome says, in a cold angered tone, "You…!?"

Mina says, with a dark sly smile, "That's right, dork! Besides, the only traitor around here is you!"

Catherine jumps to her feet and she yells out, coldly, "What!?"

Mina says, with a dark nasty tone, "That's right, whore! The next time that you act like a big shot here, then my fist will be doing the talking!" Mina turns to Keiko and she says, kindly, "Shall we get going and leaving these freaks!"

Before Keiko could speak, Mina grabs her wrist and runs off taking Keiko away, leaving Kagome and Catherine with a perplexed and distraught looks on their faces.

Catherine says, in a perplexed tone, "Any idea what the hell that was all about?"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't know, but if she's friends with that traitor and if she's able to knock you over, hard then she's no ordinary girl!"

Catherine says, in a cold plain tone, "I don't know how she's able to get past my senses and I'm supposed to have elite A-class strength."

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "She must have incredible powers, but that doesn't mean that she can't be dealt with. I've gotten many new tricks that I've gained over the year that I was planning on using on that damned mutt and his friends. I can seal him to a tree and this time, he can't come back. If she's part of that traitor's group, then I'll have to use them on her in case they're trying to get Yusuke."

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In the Ra Yellow dorms, we find Hinata, in her Ra Yellow uniform, walking out of her room with a depressed look on her face, still thinking about her dream about Naruto.

Just then, a male voice calls out, "Hinata!"

Hinata gasps in shock as she turns to see Neji Hyuga, wearing a Ra Yellow uniform, with a white shirt and jeans, walking towards them.

Hinata says, stunned, "Neji, what are you doing here!?"

Neji says, with a smile, "What does it look like!? I'm a student here in Duel Academy with you! Not just me, but Tenten and Lee as well!"

Hinata says, amazed, "Really!"

Just then, a feminine voice calls out, "That's right!" The two turn to see Lee and Tenten, wearing Ra Yellow uniforms with Lee wearing a green shirt and Tenten, were a pink shirt underneath their blazers.

Hinata says, with a smile, "All of you came!"

Tenten says, with a sly smile, "We wanted to give Duel Academy a shot!"

Just then, a familiar feminine voice calls out, "Neji, Tenten, Lee! What are you guys doing here!?" Everyone turns to see Sakura and Sasuke walking towards them, with Hinata giving a huff as she turns away from them, which Neji noticed.

Sasuke says, in a plain tone, "I didn't expect you guys to be here."

Neji says, with a smile, "It's a better way to improve on our dueling skill."

Lee asks, curiously, "Any sign of Naruto, yet?"

Sasuke and Sakura had solemn looks on their faces as well as Hinata and Sakura says, solemnly, "Nothing at all."

Neji says, in a serious tone, "He has been gone for a year and we don't know his whereabouts at all."

Hinata says, angrily, "All thanks to Billboard Brow and the emotionless prick!" Sasuke and Sakura winces at Hinata's harsh words as Hinata walked off down the hallways, angrily.

Tenten says to Sasuke and Sakura, plainly, "I see that Hinata has yet to forgive the two of you."

Sakura says, in a plain tone, "She has the right to be angry with us."

Sasuke says, seriously, "It was us that drove Naruto away from the village."

Lee says, in a serious tone, "It was an honest mistake!"

Sakura says, in a serious tone, "I called Naruto a 'demon', comparing him to that damned fox inside his body! Plus, I blamed him for starting the fight with Sasuke."

Flashback

In the Leaf Village, on top of the roof of the hospital, Sasuke and Naruto were fighting. Sasuke does some ninja hand signs and he calls out, strongly, "Fire Style! Fire Ball Jutsu!" A huge fireball came from Sasuke's mouth, and destroyed all the Naruto Shadow Clones, scorching all the towels and blankets that were left to dry. When the fire died down, Naruto was seen gathering chakra in the form of a sphere at his left hand forming a red large Rasengan. Instinctively Sasuke flashed through a few hand seals and placed his hand in front of him while quickly gathering chakra in the form of an electric ball.

Sasuke yells out, strongly, "NARUTO!"

Naruto calls out, "SASUKE!" Both of them charged towards each other and Sasuke calls out, "DIE! YOU FUCKING BASTARD!! CHIDORI!"

Naruto calls out, "SASUKE! EAT THIS! YOU ASSHOLE!! OMEGA RASENGAN!!"

Both their attacks clashed, and caused a powerful explosion which blew the two young shinobis back and slamming them on to a wall opposite from each other. Sakura, who was watching from the sidelines, realized what happened and rushed to tend Sasuke.

Sakura asks, worriedly, "Sasuke, are you all right?" asked Sakura. Suddenly out of nowhere Kakashi, Kurenai and Gai appeared.

Kakashi asks, seriously and worriedly, "What happened?"

Sakura yells out, pointing to Naruto, "It was Naruto! He attacked Sasuke! Look at what he did!" Everybody gasped and looked at Naruto, who slowly and painfully got off the crater in the wall, holding his ribs as if in pain.

Kurenai asks, sternly, "Is it true? That you attacked Uchiha Sasuke?"

As he got himself out of the hole in the wall, clutching the right side of his ribcage, Naruto says, wincing, "No……"

Sakura yells out, nastily, "LAIR! YOU HIT SASUKE WITH A POWERFUL TECHNIQUE CALLED THE OMEGA RASENGAN! YOU DEMON!"

Naruto was crushed by Sakura's words and the 'demon' insult made it worse.

Kakashi asks Naruto, seriously, "Naruto, where did you learn such a powerful technique? Tell me!"

Naruto was still clutching his ribs, applying a little pressure to ease the pain and he says, in a sneer, "Why? So you could have that person teach Sasuke? I think not."

Kakashi says, sternly, "Naruto, answer me when I ask you something."

Naruto says, seriously, "No!" Naruto began to walk away but was stopped by Kakashi and Kakashi says, seriously, "You're not leaving until you answer my question!"

Naruto says, in a sneer, "We'll see about that," Naruto began to walk pass Kakashi. But the older ninja quickly blocked his path with some summoned dogs.

Kakashi asks, clearly annoyed, "Now can you answer my question?"

Naruto smirked and bit his thumb and slammed it on the ground. A fairly large frog, Gamabunta, appeared in a poof and Naruto was standing on top of him. Kakashi's eye widened as did the other jounins.

Naruto asks, with a sly grin, "Surprised?"

Kakashi asks, stunned, "Naruto, where did……"

Naruto says, in an icy voice, "None of your business. Kakashi-sensei……no, Kakashi, for as long as I've have known, you have been training Sasuke and even Sakura but when I asked for your help you ignored me. The strength I have now is the result of my hard work…with a little help from my new sensei of course. I will not hand it over to you so that you may give it to your precious Uchiha."

Kakashi was taken back at this and he says, in a begging tone, "Naruto, you have to let me explain. I trained Sasuke because he was going to fight Gaara and Sakura because she needed the most attention since she is the weakest."

Naruto says, icily, "Excuses! I will no longer listen to any more of your excuses, Kakashi. And I'm sick and tried of trying to prove myself that I'm not some weak ninja to a bunch of assholes and bitches!" Naruto takes off his head and Kakashi says, in a nervous tone in his voice, "Naruto, what are you doing!?"

Naruto says, in a serious tone, "I, Naruto Uzumaki, hereby withdraw myself from Team seven under jounin sensei Kakashi Hatake and being a Leaf Village. From now onwards, I will have nothing to do with Kakashi Hatake, Sakura Haruno and/or Sasuke Uchiha, along with everyone else in this pathetic village. If there is nothing more, I will take my leave."

Kakashi says, in a begging tone, "Naruto, you don't have to do this. I know I haven't treated you the way I should have. Please give me a chance to make it up to you."

Naruto says, in a serious tone, "Kakashi, you lost that chance when you decided to rob me of my power and present it to Uchiha Sasuke."

As Kakashi hung his head in shame, Sakura yells at Naruto, annoyed, "Naruto! Don't talk to sensei like that!"

Naruto tells Sakura, in an icy serious tone, "Sakura Haruno, for as long as I've known I've had a crush on you. I used to crave for your attention, but no matter what I did you ignored me for your Sasuke. Besides, what do you want a 'demon' around, huh?!"

Sakura gasps in shock, knowing what she's said to Naruto and feeling ashamed for that and Naruto tells Sakura, "I used to think that you were the most beautiful girl I've ever met. But now I know I've mistaken an obsessive fan girl for an angel. You disgust me, all of you." The jounins' hair that normally lay close to the skin was standing on their ends when they heard his voice said the last part.

Naruto bows his head to the two other jounins and he says, "I will take my leave now." Naruto throws his Leaf headband to the ground and with a leap, Gamabunta and Naruto disappeared from view.

Kakashi says, to no one in particular, "What have I done…"

Sakura says, solemnly, "Naruto, I'm sorry…"

Gai says, in a serious tone, "We don't have time for this! We have to find Naruto, before he leaves the village!"

End Flashback

Back to the present, we find Sasuke taking out Naruto's Leaf Headband and he says, seriously, "When I found out about Naruto's burden, I had no idea about how he really felt! It's my fault! I should have been there for him rather than looking down upon him! He had the spirit of the Nine-Tailed Fox, when I fought him while looking for HIM!"

Sakura tells Sasuke, seriously, "No Sasuke, it's my fault! If I hadn't blamed Naruto for attacking you and called him a demon than, he'd be with us! You know how much he wanted to go to Duel Academy."

Neji says, in a serious tone, "Look all it matters to keep hope alive that we'll see Naruto, again."

Tenten says, in a smile, "In the meantime, we should get to Obelisk Arena, where a duel will be taking place."

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In the arena, we find Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte in the middle of the platform, while Chazz Princeton and a short boy, with spiky brown hair and wearing an Obelisk uniform.

The brown haired boy says, with an annoying voice, "Look, who it is? The guy, who got booted from the Blues! You're goin' down."

Chazz tells the brown haired freshman, with a sly smile, "Look, kid, you're an obnoxious little punk and I can respect that, but no snot nose freshman can stand up to The Chazz!"

Meanwhile, in the hallways, Yusuke and Hikari Urameshi, Hiei, Jaden Yuki, Ryoko Lyon, Alexis Rhodes, Syrus Truesdale, Tyson Granger, Hilary Tachibana, Daichi Sumeragi, Max Tate, Kai Hiwatari, Ray Kon, Kenny, Ranma Saotome, Akane Tendo, and Ukyo Kuonji were running in the hallways.

Jaden tells his friends, "Come on, guys, we gotta hurry if we're going to see the first duel of the year!"

Syrus asks Jaden, "How come you're not going this fast, when you're late for your classes."

Alexis replies, "Because he saves his energy for sprinting out of class!"

Ranma says, with a sly grin, "Same old, Jay! You haven't changed a bit after all this time!"

Akane tells Ranma, with a sly smirk and a teasing tone, "You shouldn't be teasing Jaden about that when you, yourself, are no better, Ranma!"

Ranma yells at Akane, annoyed, "Watch it!"

In the arena, we find the short bald guy on top of the platform, with a microphone in his hands and says, in his French accent, "Bonjouer, I'm sure all by now, you know, mioa…"

Just then, our heroes and heroines approached the arena and Syrus asks, perplexed, "Who's the short, stocky, bald guy?"

The small man says, in a French accent, "For those who don't…I'm your Vice-Chancellor Jeans Louis Bonaparte." The small man, known as Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte, tosses the mic and points at Chazz and says, "But enough about me…this is about, former Obelisk Blue student, Chazz Princeton. If he wins, he goes back to the Blue dorm! Trust me! This is a duel that you don't want to miss."

Yusuke, Jaden and their friends were walking along the back of the platform and Jaden asks, "Did you guys hear that? If Chazz wins this duel, he gets a free shot as an Obelisk Blue."

Akane asks Jaden, "He was an Obelisk Blue?"

Alexis nods her head and says, "That's right. He used to be really snobbish and put everyone down since he is so rich and powerful and went a dueling prep school, but when Yusuke and Jaden came, he got beat down by them. He left Duel Academy and joined up with its main rival, North Academy, and dueled Jaden in a rematch an even better duelist than before, but in the end, Jaden still kicked his butt! He transferred back after he was defeated and got stuck in the Slifer Red dorm with Jay, Ryoko, and Syrus."

Syrus says, "No joke! If you ask me, it should have been Jaden…"

Tyson says, carefree, "Yeah, what boob will pick Chazz!?"

Just then, a familiar male voice boomed, "This boob!"

Everyone turned to see the temporary chancellor, Dr. Crowler, standing behind them and Syrus exclaims, horrified, "Dr. Crowler?"

Dr. Crowler says, in his usual tone, "It's 'Chancellor Crowler' now and there's a reason why I pick quite a brilliant one, in fact."

Alexis says, drolly, "Somehow, I doubt it…"

Ryoko nods her head and says, drolly, "You said it…"

Crowler asks, in an irritated tone, "What was that!? Do you slackers know, who enrolled here in our freshman class? Duelist pro-league, Aster Phoenix!"

Tyson gasped in shock and exclaims, "Aster Phoenix!?"

Max says, stunned, "He enrolled in this school!"

Jaden asks, perplexed, "So, where is he?"

Crowler says, while having a white handkerchief in his mouth and pulling it in his teeth, in a distress tone, "That's just it! For some reason, he didn't show up!" Crowler told them the story and then Chazz's duel, with a proud smile on his face.

Alexis says, with an annoyed tone, "That's got be the most selfish, egotistic thing, I've ever heard!"

Ryoko says, with an annoyed tone, "No joke!"

Crowler says, ignoring the comments, "Thank you!"

Just then, our heroes and heroines gave a sweat drop and Yusuke says, drolly, "I don't think he cares."

Just then a familiar female voice from the stands calls out from the stands, "Hey, Jaden! Yusuke! Kira! You, guys!" Everyone looks to the source of the voice to see our younger and older Digidestined, Tyson and the Bladebreakers, Davis's older sister, Jun Motomiya, Genki, Yuka, Eri, Ayumi, who met up with our heroes and heroines earlier today, Jesse, Mia, Kelly, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, and Yukina. Our Digidestined of Light is waving to them and calling out, "What took you all so long?!"

Hikari calls out to Kari, with a smile, "We will be there in a moment!" Soon after, the group passes by Chancellor Crowler and takes their seats in the stands with their friends, new and old.

Jun says, looking at Jaden and Ranma, "Hey Jay and Ranma, it's been a while!"

Jaden says, with a smile, "Sure has Jun!"

Yusuke notices Genki and he says, stunned, "Hey wait! I know you! You've seen around our old school!"

Genki nods his head and he says, plainly, "That's right and it's nice to see you again, Urameshi."

Jun and the elder Digidestined yelps in shock and Izzy says, stunned, "Whoa! Urameshi, as in Yusuke Urameshi the infamous street thug from Sarayashiki Junior High!"

Yusuke says, annoyed, "I hate that rep!"

TK says, in a kind tone, "Easy Izzy, Yusuke's not as that bad as the rumors say they are."

Jaden asks, looking at the older Digidestined, "Aren't all of you the new teachers for our school? Sora Takenouchi, the teacher for our new Dueling Arts Class? Joe Kido, who is assisting Miss Fontaine in the nurse's office, Koushiro Izumi, who took over for Professor Banner for our Duel Alchemy class, Yamato Ishida, our new music teacher, and Mimi Tachikawa, who is also assisting Miss Fontaine as assisting gym class, along with Jun."

Matt says, with a kind smile, "That's us, Jaden."

Syrus asks, a bit nervously, "Sorry if this is rude, but I also heard that Matt is your brother, TK?"

TK gives off an angered huff as he turns away from Matt, which Matt bows his head in shame, and he says, mumbling, "You heard right."

Just then, a familiar feminine voice calls out, "Hey guys!" Everyone turns to see Keiko, Mina, and Kino running towards them and Jaden says, with a smile, "Hey sis!"

Yusuke gives off a cold angered huff as he turns away from his 'ex-girlfriend' as Kagome and Catherine made their way towards him. Yusuke notices the red mark on Catherine's right cheek and he asks, curiously, "Where did that come from?"

Catherine says, in a cold snarl, "That blonde haired bitch, Mina gave this to me."

Yusuke says, stunned, "No way! You're kidding!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "No we're not! She got this, after we ran into that traitorous wench that betrayed you."

Yusuke looks at Mina and Kino and he says, in a cold plain tone, "Now that you mention it, they do reek of something not normal and the same for that witch. Do you sense something not normal about her?"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "Now, that you mention it. That traitor does have something that stinks of something dark."

Just then Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte's voice booms, "All right, boys and girls! Give it up for our top freshman student!" Everyone looks at Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte as he points to the short boy that Chazz will be dueling. Bonaparte declares, with through the microphone, "He's our top freshmen! Reginald Van Howell the third!"

Jaden says, with a serious tone, "This Reginald kid must be pretty good! I mean it is his first year and he is already an Obelisk Blue!"

Syrus says, in a serious tone, "No joke, Jay! He is like Chazz…well, before he became a has-been."

Kuwabara asks Hiei, curiously, "Hey, short-stuff, I didn't think that you are into Duel Monsters!"

Hiei tells Kuwabara, with a serious tone, "I'm not fool. I would never be interested in this little card game unless it was a Shadow Game. However, I'm only here because of the strange energy auras that I detected earlier today are in this room."

Kuwabara says, with a curious tone, "Yeah, that's right. When we were at the Slifer Red dorm, I didn't sense some weird auras."

Kenny squeals in shock and yells out, "Oh no!" Kenny gets out from his backpack a laptop and he opens it. Kenny says, "Guys, meet Dizzi!"

Just then, a feminine voice from the laptop boomed, "Don't worry, Kenny! I've got the duel recorded!" Just then, our heroes and heroines, except for the Bladebreakers, Hilary, Daichi and Kenny, gasps in shock and Syrus yells out, stunned, "Whoa! Is it me or did that laptop just talked!?"

Kira yells out, stunned, "It isn't you, Sy! I heard it too!"

Jaden asks, perplexed, "How did you manage to do that, Kenny?"

Kenny replies, in his logical tone, "There's a reason for that! Dizzi, short for Dizzialia, is a bit beast that was trapped in my laptop when I was plugging it in my room. Dizzi has data on other beybladers as well as duelists in the world, including the Pro duelists like Zane Truesdale."

Syrus says, in an amazed tone, "Data on my brother?"

Dizzi says, in a sarcastic tone, "Hey Kenny, you forgot to put down the most beautiful!"

Bonaparte announces, through the microphone, "All right, you know the drill: no direct attacks below the belt, but trash talk is allowed."

The short boy, known as Reginald, points at Chazz and yells out, "Then, allow me to kick up the insults! You a lousy, stuck-up snob and no here likes you!"

Chazz says, in his usual tone, "I'm waiting for the insult!"

Reginald says, perplexed, "Huh?"

Chazz tells Reginald, in a serious tone, "Maybe, you haven't picked up on this, Little Reggie, but I do things my way and I didn't come here for any popularity contest!"

Jaden says, drolly, "Tell us something that we don't know."

Syrus says, in a serious tone, "Yeah, Chazz! How do you take all those nudges as a sign of friendship?"

Chazz says, in his usual tone and ignoring Syrus, "All right! Let's get on with it! Talk is cheap and unlike you! I don't do cheap!"

"Game on!" Reginald and Chazz yell in unison

Starting Score:

Reginald: 8000

Chazz: 8000

During the duel, Reginald proved to be a good duelist, but with Chazz's combos with his Ojama cards, he comes on top without too much trouble. After the dueling and the celebrations are said and done, Chancellor Crowler takes the microphone into his hands and goes out into the center of the stage.

Crowler calls out through the microphone, "All right, everyone! Settle down! It is time to move on to the second duel for the year, so, please return to your seats!"

Keiko asks, perplexed, "The second duel of the year? Already?"

Mina says, amazed, "That was sure fast."

Alexis comments, annoyed, "I wonder what half-baked plan that Crowler has up his sleeve this time."

Crowler then calls out, seriously, "Now, for the second duel of the year, another of our freshmen will have a chance to take on one of our students from the Ra Yellow dorm!" Crowler looks around the audience, stops, and he points and he calls out, "You! The one with the spiky blond hair!" The one that Crowler was calling out was Jordan Rhodes, who was wearing a Ra Yellow blazer with over a white shirt, light blue jeans, and yellow sneakers, walking down the audience with a nervous expression on his face.

Alexis gasps in shock and she says, stunned, "Jordan is going to duel!"

Yusuke asks Alexis, curiously, "Isn't that the name of your cousin, 'Lex?"

Alexis nods her head and she says, "Jordan's a good duelist and I know that he'll do fine." Soon after, Jordan Rhodes, wearing a Ra Yellow uniform, with a duel disk attached to his left wrist, walks onto one side of the dueling platform.

After Chazz and Jaden take their seats with the rest of our heroes and heroines, Jaden exclaims, "Oh, wow! Alexis's cousin is dueling next?!"

Chazz tells Jaden, in his usual snobbish tone, "What was your first clue, Slacker?"

Ranma asks Hikari, "Is Chazz always like this?"

Hikari replies, drolly, "Every single day, but I keep him in line." Hikari tells Chazz, with a sly smile, "Don't I?"

Chazz swallows a lot of air and replies, nervously, "Right, Hikari."

TK tells Hikari, "Well, I see that some of the 'tough guy' gene didn't pass you over."

Kari tells TK, "No joke, TK."

Crowler then announces through the microphone, "And to make sure that the girls aren't left out! This young man will be dueling one of our female freshman and to make things fair, she will be picked out from the crowd right now!" Everyone gasps in shock as Crowler looks around the audience, stops directly at one, and he points directly at our her causing him to call out, "You! The one with the brown hair!" The one that Crowler was pointing at was a teenage girl around the age of 17 with shoulder length reddish brown hair and reddish brown eyes. She was wearing a Ra Yellow blazer, over a pink shirt and jeans, with yellow sneakers.

The teenage girl asks, nervously, "Me?!"

Crowler shouts out, annoyed, "Yes! Who else would I be talking to?!" The brunette girl immediately runs down to the stage and walks in front of Chancellor Crowler.

Crowler hands the two a duel disk and he asks Jordan, "Your name, please?"

Jordan replies, nervously, "Jordan…Jordan Rhodes, sir!"

Crowler yelps in shock and he says, stunned, "Rhodes!" Crowler asks Jordan, in a whisper, "You wouldn't be by any chance be related to Atticus and Alexis Rhodes?"

Jordan nods his head and he says, "Yes, sir, they're my cousin!"

Crowler thinks in his mind, seriously, "Alexis and Atticus's cousin in my school! Yes, this boy is the ticket to my fame!" Crowler giggles as he turns to the teenage girl and he asks her, "And what is your name, young lady?"

The Ra Yellow girl says, in a plain tone, "I'm Sayu…Sayu Yagami!"

Davis, Tyson, Jaden, and Ranma gasp in shock and Jaden yells out, shocked, "Sayu! Sayu Yagami, is here!"

Syrus asks Jaden, curiously, "You know her!"

Davis says, with a smile, "Of course, Sayu was one of our friends growing up!"

Ranma says, with a wide smile, "That's right! We had the best times together, like play Duel Monsters and many other things like play jokes on her older brother, Light Yagami."

Tyson says, with a smile, "She has a father that led a police force and her brother and Light was extremely smart and a good person."

Jun says, with a wide smile, "As a matter of fact, Light was a great duelist back when we were growing up. Sadly, they moved to the Kanto part of Japan."

Davis says, in a serious tone, "But the last time I checked, Sayu's father was working on an extremely hard case."

Yusuke asks, "What case would that be?"

Davis asks, curiously, "Has any of you heard about 'Kira'?"

Everyone, except for Hiei, gasps in shock and Jesse says, seriously, "Who hasn't heard about the person that was killing off criminals left and right with some magical powers!?"

Kurama thinks in his mind, as he heard this, "Powers to kill a human being."

Hiei thinks in his mind, curiously, "Could they be talking about THAT notebook? I thought the notebook was nothing more than a mere myth or a legend from the Shinigami realm."

Kai says, in a plain tone, "Word has it that Kira hasn't made his move in a year, while the police and a guy named L as well as the SPK are looking for him."

As Sayu and Jordan attached their duel discs to their left wrists and puts their dueling decks inside, they gets onto the stage and Crowler calls out through the microphone, "Now, let me explain the stakes of this duel! It's really simple actually: Since both of you are Ra Yellows, the winner gets to advance to the Obelisk Blue dorm!"

Syrus exclaims to Alexis, amazed, "Whoa! Did you hear that, 'Lex?! If your cousin wins, he gets to go to the Blue dorm right away!"

Kira nods her head and says, "Yeah, 'Lex! This could be Jordan's big chance!"

Davis tells Syrus and Kira, "Don't count on it, guys. Sayu is no pushover herself! She even beat me, Jaden, Tyson, and Ranma a few times."

Ranma yells at Davis, annoyed, "Thanks for the reminder, Davis!"

Akane asks, perplexed, "She is that good, Davis?"

Jaden nods his head and says, "Yeah. And them some, Akane. She even gave me a run for my money last year. Like our friend, Bastion Misawa, during our duel as kids, she managed to take away my fusion monsters for the whole duel and they were some of my best monsters."

As Sayu and Jordan prepare to duel when they activate their duel disks, their duel discs display 4000 life-points each and both of them draw five cards from their decks.

Sayu and Jordan call out in unison, "Game on!"

Starting Scores:

Sayu: 8000

Jordan: 8000

Sayu draws her sixth card and she calls out, "I'll start out with this!" Sayu places a card onto the disc and she calls out, "I summon Masked Dragon in defense mode and end my turn!" Soon after, Masked Dragon (ATK: 1400/DEF: 1100) appears on the field in defense mode.

Jordan draws his sixth card and he calls out, "It's my turn!" Jordan looks at his hand, nervously, and he thinks, "Okay, let's see…Hey, maybe this could work!" Jordan puts three cards in the spell/trap slots and he says, with a serious tone, "Okay, I put one card face-down." Jordan puts one card on his duel disc and he calls out, "Next, I'll summon Green Gadget in attack mode!" Soon after, Green Gadget (ATK: 1400/DEF: 600) appears on the field in attack mode. Jordan takes out his deck from his disc and he calls out, "Next, my Green Gadget's ability activates, whenever he's summoned, I can pick Red Gadget from my deck to my hand!" Jordan fans his deck, picks up his Red Gadget (ATK: 1300/DEF: 1500) card, places it in his hand, reshuffles his deck, places the deck back to the disc and he calls out, "Now, Green Gadget, attack!" Green Gadget charges towards Masked Dragon, punching it, as the dragon roars in pain as it explodes, destroying it and Green Gadget comes back to Jordan's side.

Sayu takes out a card, fans it and she says, seriously, "Thanks, I wanted you to do that! Whenever my dragon goes to the graveyard, I can choose one dragon monster that has fifteen hundred attack points or less from my deck and summon it." Sayu picks out the card and she calls out, "And I choose…my Armed Dragon level three!" Soon after, Armed Dragon LV3 (ATK: 1200/DEF: 900) appears on the field in defense mode.

Our heroes and heroines gasps in shock and Syrus says, stunned, "Armed Dragon!"

Ryoko says, in a serious tone, "Jaden's other childhood friend plays with them as well!"

Jordan says, seriously, "I end my turn!"

Sayu draws her card and she calls out, "It's my turn and my level three dragon's ability activates, so he grows up to level five!" Armed Dragon LV3 glows and Armed Dragon LV5 (ATK: 2400/DEF: 1700) comes to the field as it gave a loud roar, making Jordan nervous. Sayu places a card onto the disc and she calls out, "If you thought this is worse, just wait! I summon another one of my dragons, Horus the Black Flame Dragon level four!" Horus the Black Flame Dragon (ATK: 1600/DEF: 1000) comes to the field in attack mode.

Syrus says, stunned, "Horus, too!"

Back in the duel, Sayu calls out, "Horus, attack his Green Gadget with Black Flame Shot!" Horus opened its mouth and heads towards Green Gadget.

Jordan presses the button on his disc and he calls out, "I activate my Sakuretsu Armor!" Jordan's face-down card was Sakuretsu Armor and Jordan says, with a smile, "Thanks to this, your attacking monster is destroyed!"

Sayu yells out, shocked, "No!" Horus's attack went back to itself and destroyed the dragon.

Jordan thinks in his mind, seriously, "That was close, if that would have hit me then, she'd upgrade it to level six!"

Sayu yells out, seriously, "You'll pay for that! Armed Dragon, attack with Inferno Roar!" Armed Dragon fires a crimson blast at Green Gadget, destroying it, causing Jordan to scream as he loses 1000 life-points. Sayu calls out, "To end my turn, I'll activate my dragon's ability, since he destroyed a monster in battle, I can then sacrifice it for Armed Dragon level seven!" Armed Dragon LV5 explodes and Armed Dragon LV7 (ATK: 2800/DEF: 1000) takes its place.

Current Score:

Sayu: 8000

Jordan: 7000

Jordan draws his card and he calls out, "My turn!" Jordan thinks in his mind, seriously, "It's no big deal! I know how to take care of that dragon!" Jordan places a card onto the disc and he calls out, "I summon Red Gadget in attack mode!" Red Gadget (ATK: 1300/DEF: 1500) comes to the field in attack mode.

Sayu says, with a sly grin, "Your monster isn't so big in points!"

Jordan takes out his deck and he calls out, "That's because I'm not done, yet, because I'm going to activate Red Gadget's ability to bring Yellow Gadget to my hand!" Jordan picks up his Yellow Gadget (ATK: 1200/DEF: 1200) monster card and places it in his hand.

Sayu says, in a serious tone, "So, what!? You have nothing to take out my Armed Dragon!"

Jordan presses a button on his disc and he calls out, seriously, "Not yet, anyways! I activate my Ultimate Offering trap card!" Jordan's face-down card was Ultimate Offering Continuous trap card and Jordan says, "Thanks to this, I'm allowed another Normal Summon, but it comes with a five hundred point cost!" Jordan's life points dropped by 500 points as he places a card onto the disc and he says, "And I'll use it to summon my Yellow Gadget!" Soon after, Yellow Gadget (ATK: 1200/DEF: 1200) comes to the field next to Red Gadget in attack mode. Jordan takes his deck, again, and he says, "Then, I'll activate my Yellow Gadget's ability, now I can take out my other Green Gadget from my deck!" Jordan takes out his other Green Gadget (ATK: 1400/DEF: 600) monster card from his deck, reshuffles it, again, and places it in his hand. Jordan places the card onto the disc and he calls out, "And I'll pay another five hundred points to summon Green Gadget to the field!" Jordan's life-points were dropped by 500 and Green Gadget (ATK: 1400/DEF: 600) appears next to Yellow Gadget in attack mode. Jordan takes out his deck again and he says, "Thanks to Green Gadget, I can bring out another Gadget monster, like my other Red Gadget!"

Sayu says, in a plain tone, "That was pointless! You wasted your life points to summon more weaklings!" Sayu notices Jordan's last face-down card and she says, surprised, "Unless…"

After taking out his other Red Gadget (ATK: 1300/DEF: 1500) monster card, Jordan says, with a smile, "Unless, I'm using them to activate this…" Jordan presses a button on his disc and he calls out, "…Stronghold the Moving Fortress!"

Sayu yells out, shocked, "Oh no!"

Syrus says, with a smile, "So that's why he was sacrificing his life-points for!" Syrus asks, nervously, "So…what does it do?"

Chazz says, in his usual snobbish tone, "It's no wonder that why you're still in Slifer, Stronghold the Moving Fortress is a trap card that's like a monster card! As long as the gadget monsters, Green Gadget, Red Gadget, and Yellow Gadget, are on the field, this monster becomes even more powerful."

Back in the duel, Stronghold the Moving Fortress (ATK: 0/DEF: 2000) appears in attack mode. Jordan calls out, "Now, my gadget monsters untie!" All of the gadget monsters were attached to the Stronghold's chest and Jordan says, with a smile, "Thanks to my Stronghold's effect, whenever my three gadgets untie with him, his attack strength are increased to three thousand!" Stronghold the Moving Fortress had its stats increased from 0/2000 to 3000/2000. Jordan calls out, "Now, my monster attack!" Stronghold the Moving Fortress smashed its fist to Sayu's dragon as it roars in pain and was destroyed, costing Sayu 200 life points. Jordan says, seriously, "I end my turn!"

Current Score:

Sayu: 7800

Jordan: 6000

Back in the audience, Ryoko tells Alexis, with a smile, "Wow, your cousin sure can duel, 'Lex!"

Yolei says, with a smile, "Yeah, if he keeps it up, then he'll win for sure."

Davis says, in a serious tone, "Still I wouldn't count Sayu out if I were you. Sayu was taught Duel Monsters by her brother, Light, who as you know was the best, not only Light taught her, but Jay, Ty, and Ranma."

Jaden nods his head and he says, seriously, "No joke, Davis! Sayu might be almost deadly if anyone underestimates her."

Back in the duel, Sayu draws her card and she calls out, "It's my move, Jordan!" Just then, Sayu looks at her card that she just drew, which was White-Horned Dragon (ATK: 2200/DEF: 1400) and a spirit-like image of White-Horned Dragon appears beside Sayu.

Akane's eyes widen and she whispers to Ranma, "Do you see that Ranma?"

A human sized Flame Swordsman appears besides Ranma and he whispers to Akane, "How can't I not see that Naruto? She has three Duel Spirits with her."

A Magician of Faith appears besides Akane and tells her, telepathically in a female voice, "That's right, Akane. She has the power to see Duel Spirits and she has her own with her!"

Winged Kuriboh's spirit comes out of his card, chirps to Jaden, and he tells his partner, telepathically, "Yeah, Kuriboh, I see it, too!" But then Kuriboh then chirps and points behind Jaden. When Jaden looks, he sees Flame Swordsman by Ranma, Magician of Faith by Akane, Dark Magician Girl, Mana, with Keiko, Winged Kuriboh and Kuriboh with Yusuke, Vampire Lord and another Kuriboh with Hikari, a Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle spirit by Jesse, a Guardian Angel Joan and Petite Angel with our Digidestined of Light, a Gearfried the Iron Knight, Dark Blade, and D.D. Warrior Lady by TK, one Winged Kuriboh, one Kuriboh, and a Black Luster Soldier by Davis, Red-Eyes Black Chick and Baby Dragon on both of Tyson's shoulders, Island Turtle by Max's side, Chazz's Ojama Trios, Vampire Lord besides Ray, a human-sized Darkfire Soldier appears by Kai's side, a third Kuriboh and a Forgiven Maiden with Kagome, and Kira has Babycerasaurus with her.

Jaden thinks, with a smile, "Oh! I see what you are trying to tell me, Kuriboh! Chazz, Yusuke, Hikari, Kira, Kagome, and I aren't the only ones with Duel Spirits around here!"

Alexis thinks in her mind, wondering, "I keep wondering what Jay is looking at sometimes."

Hikari whispers to Yusuke, with a smile, "It seems like we aren't the only one with Duel Spirits, Yusuke."

Yusuke whispers back with a wide grin, "No joke, Kari."

With Sasuke and his fellow ninjas, Sasuke notices the duel spirits and he thinks in his mind, "It looks like I'm not the only one around with duel spirits." Just then a human-sized Red Eyes Black Dragon appears by Sasuke's right side.

Back with our heroes and heroines, when Ojama Yellow appears by Chazz's right shoulder and Chazz had already noticed the Duel Spirits within our heroes and heroines, Chazz says, annoyed and lowly and to himself, "Just great."

Ojama Yellow tells Chazz, in his usual tone, but only Chazz and our heroes and heroines that have Duel Spirits with them can hear him, "We are like one big happy family, aren't we, boss?!"

Chazz says, lowly, "Yeah, right! Get lost, pipsqueak!" Chazz punches Ojama Yellow and he vanishes back to his card.

Hikari tells Yusuke, with a whisper, "Not all of us are glad to have Duel Spirits, bro."

Kira tells Hikari, while Babycerasaurus chirps beside her, "I can see that, Kari."

Back to the duel, Jordan notices the White-Horned Dragon spirit by Sayu's side and he thinks in his mind, as another Magician of Faith appears by his side, "Wow! She has a duel spirit also!"

Sayu notices Jordan's duel spirit and she thinks in her mind, "Him, too!" The White-Horned Dragon spirit tells Sayu, telepathically and in a beautiful feminine voice, "Sayu, I want to fight along side of you!"

Sayu says, mentality, "Okay!" Sayu says, in a serious tone, "This next move gets complicated so listen up!" Sayu places a card onto the disc and she calls out, "First, I'll summon Luster Dragon in attack mode!" Soon after, Luster Dragon (ATK: 1900/DEF: 1600) comes to the field in attack mode. Sayu sends a card into the spell/trap slot and she calls out, "Next, I'll play Stamping Destruction, even though your Stronghold is a monster in play, it's still a trap card, so it has to go!"

Jordan yells out, horrified, "No!" Just then, a dragon's foot comes and hits Jordan's monster, destroying it, making the gadget monsters fall to the ground.

Sayu says, with a sly grin, "And thanks to my Stamping Destruction's other effect, since I destroyed your trap, you lose five hundred of your life points!" Jordan yelps in shock as he loses 500 life-points. Sayu sends another card into the spell/trap slot and she calls out, "Then, I play another spell card, Wicked-Breaking Flamberge spell card, by sending one card from my hand to the graveyard, I can give my dragon five hundred more attack points!" After Sayu sends her White-Horned Dragon to the graveyard, the Flamberge sword appears in Luster Dragon's right claw and it increases its stats from 1900/1600 to 2400/1600. Sayu sends another card into the spell/trap slot and she calls out, "Next, I'll play another spell card called Premature Burial! At the cost of eight of my life-points, I can summon a monster from the graveyard and I choose my…White-Horned Dragon!" After Sayu's life points were decreased by 800 points, White-Horned Dragon (ATK: 2200/DEF: 1400) appears on the field next to Luster Dragon. Sayu says, with a sly smile, "And thanks to my White-Horned Dragon's effect, I can now remove up to five spell cards from my graveyard from my graveyard to increase my dragon's attack strength by three hundred points for each card removed!" Just then, Sayu's Stamping Destruction spell card came from her graveyard slot, she takes it to her pocket, and White-Horned Dragon's stats were increased from 2200/1400 to 2500/1400.

Jordan steps back and he says, nervously, "Uh oh!"

Sayu says, with a sly grin, "Uh oh! Is right!? Luster Dragon, attack with Breath of Fire!" Luster Dragon fires a white beam towards Green Gadget, destroying it, and costing Jordan 1000 life-points. Sayu yells out, "Now, White-Horned Dragon, attack with Horn Spear!" White-Horned Dragon charges towards Red Gadget, stabs it in the chest with her horn, causing a huge explosion, destroying it and costing Jordan 1200 more life-points.

Syrus says, winching, "Ouch! That's gotta hurt!"

Sayu says, in a serious tone, "With that I end my turn!"

Current Score:

Sayu: 7000

Jordan: 3300

Yusuke says, amazed, "Oh man! You were right, Jay! Your childhood friend is deadly!"

Kira nods her head and she says, "No joke, bro! She knocked Alexis's cousin's life points below a half!"

Alexis says, lowly and worriedly, "Come on…"

Jordan thinks in his mind, worriedly, "Oh no! I'm getting behind! I have to keep going!" Jordan draws his card and he calls out, "It's my turn!" Jordan looks at the card he drew and he says, excitedly, "Yes, this could be the one I'm looking for!" Jordan sends a card into the spell/trap slot and he calls out, "I activate Card of Sanctity, now both of us can draw until we're holding six cards in our hands!" Jordan and Sayu draw until they were holding six cards in their hands. Jordan looks at the cards that were in his hand and he says, "That's it!" Jordan sends another card into the spell/trap slot and he calls out, "I activate Polymerization!" Jordan discards two Cyber Dragons (ATK: 2100/DEF: 1600X2) to his graveyard, the two Cyber Dragons appear on the field and fuse together and says, "I'll fuse my two Cyber Dragons to summon my Cyber Twin Dragon!" Out of a bright light from the fusion of the two Cyber Dragons, Cyber Twin Dragon (ATK: 2800/DEF: 2100) appears on the field on attack mode.

Syrus yells out, shocked, "No way! Alexis's cousin plays with Cyber Dragons too!"

Alexis says, with smile, "Of course, ever since Zane got to the Pro-Leagues, Jordan wanted to have all three Cyber Dragons and any cards supporting them."

Sayu says, amazed, "Oh man! That's a real dragon!"

Jordan calls out, "Just wait until he attacks! Cyber Twin Dragon, attack with Double Strident Blast!" Cyber Twin Dragon launches a powerful blast of energy at White-Horned Dragon, it slams into her, destroying it costing Sayu to lose 300 life-points with this attack. Jordan tells Sayu, "And my dragon has another surprise for you, it can attack again!" Cyber Twin Dragon launches another attack right at Luster Dragon, it slams into it, destroying it and costing Sayu 400 more life points. Jordan calls out, strongly, "Now, Yellow Gadget, attack Sayu directly!" Yellow Gadget charges at Sayu, punching her in the stomach, throwing her to the ground as her life-points took another drop by 1200 points. Jordan sends another card into the spell/trap slot and he calls out, "Now, I'll play De-Fusion to split my dragon into two once more!"

Sayu yells out, shocked, "No way!" Cyber Twin Dragon were split into two Cyber Dragons (ATK: 2100/DEF: 1600X2) in attack mode. Jordan yells out, "Now, my dragons attack with Strident Blast!" The two Cyber Dragons fire their blasts at Sayu and Sayu yelps in shock as the attacks hits her hard, causing her to lose 4200 life points.

Matt yells out, shocked, "Yow! That's outta hurt!"

Jordan calls out, seriously, "And that ends my turn!"

Current Score:

Sayu: 0900

Jordan: 3300

Jordan thinks in his mind, with a sigh, "I've taken the lead and if she summons a weaker monster, than I win!"

Sayu slowly rises to her feet and she says, dusting her herself, "That was an amazing feet, Jordan! But I'm still here!" Sayu draws her card, sends it into the spell/trap slot and she yells out, "I activate Pot of Greed! Now, I can draw two cards from my deck!" Sayu draws two cards from her deck, places onto the disc and she yells out, "Now, I summon Red-Eyes Black Chick in attack mode!" Soon after, Red-Eyes Black Chick (ATK: 800/DEF: 500) appears on the field in attack mode. Sayu places another card onto her disc and she calls out, "I'll activate my chick's ability to sacrifice it to summon my Red-Eyes Black Dragon!" Red-Eyes Black Chick gives a red glow, grows, and transforms into Red-Eyes Black Dragon (ATK: 2400/DEF: 2000) in attack mode. Sayu places one card into the spell/trap slot and she yells out, "Next, I'll activate Inferno Fire Blast! If I don't attack with Red-Eyes Black Dragon this turn, I can attack you directly!"

Jordan yells out, shocked, "Oh no!"

Sayu yells out, seriously, "Red-Eyes, attack with Inferno Fire Blast!" Red-Eyes Black Dragon fires a blast fire blast at Sayu, he yells out, as it hits him hard and he screams as he loses 2400 life points in one shot. Sayu puts one card on her duel disc and yells out, seriously, "I'm not finished yet! Then I sacrifice my dragon to summon my Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon!" Red-Eyes Black Dragon turns into dark red and orange flames and those flames turn into Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon (ATK: 2400/DEF: 2000-ATK: 4200/DEF: 2000) in attack mode. Sayu says, with a serious tone, "Thanks to the nine dragons in my grave, my Darkness Dragon gains eighteen hundred attack points!"

Jordan says, stunned, "No! I'll lose!"

Sayu calls out, "It's over! Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, attack his Cyber Dragon with Inferno Darkfire and end this!" Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon fires a beam of dark flames right at Cyber Dragon, engulfing it, and throwing Jordan down as he loses 2100 points, immediately losing the duel.

Final Score:

Sayu: 0900

Jordan: 0000

Soon after, the final images disappear and many cheers were going around the arena. As Jordan got to his knee, Sayu calls out, "Hey!"

Jordan looks up to see Sayu holding out her hand to him and Jordan, gladly, grabbed it as Sayu got Jordan onto his feet. Sayu says, with a wide smile, "That was a good duel you gave me!"

Jordan says, with a blush, "Thanks, you two!"

Our heroes and heroines watched this and Jaden tells Alexis, with a smile, "Your cousin really can duel, Alexis!"

Alexis says, with a red hue on her face, "Yeah I know!"

Tyson says, with a smile, "Let's go meet up with them!" Tyson gets up from his seat, with the others following him. As they got the stadium, Jaden calls out to Sayu, "Hey Sayu!" Sayu and Jordan turns to see our heroes and heroines walking towards them.

Sayu squeals excitedly, "No way! Jaden Yuki! Tyson Granger! Ranma Saotome! Jun Motomiya! Daisuke Motomiya!"

Jordan yelps in shock and he says, stunned, "Tyson Granger! The world champion beyblader!"

Tyson says, with a sly grin, "The one and only!" Sayu makes her way to Jaden, hugging him as well as pulling Tyson, Ranma, Jun, and Davis into the group hug. As they pulled back, Sayu says, with a smile, "It's so nice to see you again!"

Davis says, with a smile, "Same here, Sayu! You've changed since the last time that I've seen you! You look great!"

Sayu says, with a blush, "Well, you're not so bad yourself, Davis! I don't look as good as Jun though."

Jun says, with a wide sly grin, "You give me too much credit, Sayu!"

On the meanwhile, Alexis goes over to Jordan, pulls him to a hug, and she says, "You did great out there, Jordy!"

Jordan says, with a smile, "Thanks Alexis! Too bad I didn't win, then I could have joined you and Atticus!"

Alexis says, with a smile, "Hey, there's always next time, huh?!"

Jordan asks Alexis, "Hey 'Lex, is Jaden Yuki the boy that you have a cr…" Alexis slaps Jordan's mouth closed and she asks him, annoyed and in a deadly serious tone, "Who told you that!?"

Jordan replies, while his mouth was covered by Alexis's hand, "Atticus…"

Alexis thinks in her mind, angrily, "I'm going to be an only child soon!"

Sayu asks Jaden, Tyson, Ranma, Jun, and Davis, "So guys, who are your friends?"

Jaden says, pointing at Yusuke, Hikari, Kira, and Kagome, "I'm pretty sure that you've heard about this the wrong way from people, but the guy in the Obelisk Blue uniform is one of my friends, Yusuke Urameshi."

Sayu and Jordan yelps in shock and fear as Jordan got behind Alexis and Sayu says, stunned, "Whoa! THE Yusuke Urameshi, the infamous street fighter from Sarayashiki Junior High!"

Jordan says, fearfully, "The one that kills for fun and if you anger, he'll call ten thousand bad guys with knives and guns with a whistle."

Yusuke slaps himself in the forehead and he says, in a cold annoyed tone, "I really hate that rep!"

Jaden says, in a kind tone, "You don't have to worry about that! Yusuke isn't as bad as the rumors say!"

Kira says, with sly smile, "I'm Kira Urameshi, Yusuke's sister!"

Hikari says, with a smile, "I'm Hikari Urameshi, the elder twin sister!"

Sayu asks, perplexed, "Elder twin sister?"

Hikari says, proudly, "Yep! Born two second before Yusuke and four seconds before Kira and I never let them forget it!"

Yusuke and Kira say in unison and drolly, "Tell me about it!"

Hikari points at Kagome and she says, "And this is our cousin, Kagome Higurashi."

Sayu and Jordan winces and Sayu says, uneasy, "Kagome Higurashi, the one that people refers to as the 'Sick Girl'."

Kagome slaps her forehead and she calls out, in her mind, in a cold angered tone, "DAMN IT, GRANDPA, COULDN'T YOU COME UP WITH ANYTHING ELSE! SERIOUSLY, I'M NOT SICK!"

Keiko thinks in her mind, seriously, "Couldn't Kagome's grandpa come up with a better excuse when she's on her adventures with Inuyasha?"

Jaden points at Keiko and he says, with a smile, "And this is my elder twin sister, Keiko Yukimura."

Sayu says, perplexed, "Sister! I didn't you know you even had a sister, Jaden!"

Jun says, in a plain tone, "I figured that you were an only child."

Keiko says, in a nervous tone, "Well, it's a long story."

Jaden says, nervously, "Yeah…" Jaden then points at Alexis, Chazz, and Syrus and he says, "And these are my friends Alexis Rhodes, one of the best duelists from Obelisk Blue and a great friend and person." Alexis blushes at Jaden's words and Jaden says, "The one in black is Chazz Princeton, he's much of a snob, but he's not that bad and he's a great duelist next to me, Yusuke, Kagome, Hikari, Kira, and Alexis. The little guy is one of my good friends, Syrus Truesdale."

Sayu says, in a stunned tone, "Truesdale!?"

Jordan says, an amazed tone, "You mean that he's related to Zane Truesdale."

Syrus says, in a plain tone, "Yeah, he's my brother."

Mia says, with a sly grin, "But doesn't have the looks, height, confidence, and dueling skills as his older brother."

Syrus yells at Mia, annoyed, "Hey!"

Keiko tells Mina, seriously, "Mia, that wasn't nice!"

Mia says, nervously, "Sorry, I couldn't resist!"

Catherine says, with a sly grin, "Hiya, mates, I'm Catherine Maxwell."

Kelly says, in a kind tone, "I'm Kelly Storm!"

Ryoko says, with a kind smile, "I'm Ryoko Lyon!"

Mia says, with a smile, "I'm Mia Kaze!"

Genki says, with a kind smile, "I'm Genki! Genki Akaya!"

Sayu says, shocked, "Hey wait! Genki Akaya, I've heard about you! You're that kid that won a tournament with that Monster Rancher game four years ago!"

Genki says, with a nervous smile, "Yeah, that's me!"

Izumi says, with a smile, "Nice to meet you, I'm Izumi Izuto."

Jesse says, with a kind smile in his Southern Accent, "Howdy, I'm Jesse! Jesse Anderson!"

Jordan says, stunned, "You're Jesse Anderson!"

Sayu says, amazed, "The guy that won the Crystal Beast deck!"

Jesse says, with a smile, "The one and only!"

Ranma points at Akane and Ukyo and he says, "The girl with the brown hair is Ukyo Kuonji, she's another childhood friend of mine, after I met with you again, and the girl with the black hair is Akane Tendo, my supposed fiancée."

Sayu and Jordan yells out, shocked and at the same time, "Fiancée!"

Sayu says, in a stunned tone, "How could that be!? How did this happen!?"

Ranma says, in a snort, "Ask Pops!"

Sayu says, drolly, "Why am I not surprised!?"

Tyson says, with a smile, "So Sayu, how's the family doing!?"

Sayu lowers her head, solemnly, and she says, "Well, not so well, you guys know 'Kira' right."

Yuka says, seriously, "Who hasn't heard about that murderer!? Some say that he kills people with heart attacks and many accidental accidents, like get hit by a truck, bus, train, or car for that matter or anything that would relate to that."

Sayu says, in an angered tone, "Murderer is too nicely for the likes of him! More like cold hearted damn beast! Thanks to him, I've lost both my parents and my brother!"

Everyone, except for Hiei, gasps in shock and Tyson says, stunned, "Wait! So, Light and your parents have been killed by 'Kira'!?"

Sayu nods her head and she says, solemnly, "Actually, 'Kira' just took my father and brother. Just a year ago, my father and Light were walking on a case on catching 'Kira', but both of them were killed because of him! Just after Light's death, my mother fell into deep depression that she tried to kill herself and right now, she's at the mental asylum to recover from this depression of losing both Light and my dad. Right now, I'm staying by myself and I'm doing quite alright, but I'm still affected that my father and brother are gone."

Ranma thinks in his mind, seriously, "Poor Sayu! She lost her father and Light to this 'Kira' person, who's mysteriously killing people, mostly criminals with an unknown method."

Davis thinks in his mind, angrily, "Damn that 'Kira'! Word has it that he disappeared a year ago, but hopefully later, I could remember Koenma to tell us the identity to 'Kira' and it would be to no surprise if this 'Kira' and Dartz, or worse Sartorius are working together for another sick plan."

Kari says, in a plain tone, "We're sorry about your loss, Sayu. Believe me, I know how you feel."

Just then, a familiar feminine voice calls out, "Excuse me!" Everyone turns to see Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, Neji, Tenten, and Lee walking towards them.

Hikari says, in a curious tone, "Yeah, is there something we can help you with?"

Sakura says, with a kind tone, "Hi! We just saw the duel and we never anything like it from where we're from!"

Sayu says, plainly, "Thanks!"

Kenny asks, amazed when he sees Sasuke, "Wait! Aren't you Sasuke Uchiha?"

The group, except for Jaden and Tyson, gasp in shock and Jaden asks, curiously, "Who?"

Tyson asks, curiously, "Who is Sasuke Uchiha?"

Syrus tells Jaden, "Jaden, don't you know?!"

Jaden shakes his head and replies, "No."

Tyson states, with a plain and perplexed tone, "I never heard of him either, guys."

Hilary yells at Tyson, in a bit of an annoyed tone, "Where have you been, Tyson?!"

Yusuke says, with a serious tone, "He comes from the lands of the Shinobi, also known as ninjas, who live in many of the mountainous regions in Japan and other parts of Asia. He is the only survivor of Shinobi clan with Kekkai Genkai, a rare genetic trait through that family or clan, known as the Sharingan, who was massed murdered around some years ago by a member of their own clan."

Ranma nods his head and he says, seriously, "Yeah, no joke! Rumor has it that it was Sasuke's own elder brother, Itachi Uchiha that did it."

Max asks Kenny, curiously, "How did you know about this, Chief?"

Kenny tells Max, "Even through the lands of ninjas are far away, they have an influence of effecting what happens in Japan, Asia, and even the world, Max."

Sakura tells Sasuke, pretty amazed, "Wow. It seems like a lot of people outside of our home lands know about you, Sasuke."

Sasuke shrugs his shoulders and says, plainly, "Whatever." Sasuke looks at Yusuke and Kuwabara and states, plainly and curiously, "By the way, aren't you supposed to be Yusuke Urameshi, also known as the 'Great Urameshi', and Kuzama Kuwabara, two of the most infamous street fighters from Sarayashiki Junior High in Tokyo?"

Sakura yelps out in shock and says, a bit fearfully, "THE Yusuke Urameshi?!"

Tenten calls out, amazed, "Whoa! I've heard of him! It's said that he commands a one thousand street fighters with a simple flick of his fingers and if he calls them, you are dead unless you are a ninja like us!"

Sayu tells Jaden, amazed, "It looks like even ninjas have heard about your friend, too, Jay."

Yusuke says, drolly, "Just great."

Ray asks, curiously, "Why would be ninja from lands of the Shinobi be doing around here?"

Lee exclaims, with an excited tone, "We're here to become great duelists as well as awesome ninjas!"

Neji looks at Catherine and he asks, "You wouldn't be by any chance Catherine Maxwell, wouldn't you?"

Catherine replies, curiously, "Why do you want to know?"

Neji replies, seriously, "Because, we saw two people that we're looking for you."

Jaden asks, "Who?"

Just then, a male voice calls out, "Hey Cat!" After hearing the voice, Catherine's expression went into cold anger as she and her friends, old and new, turns to see two teenagers walking towards them.

One of them was a male around the same age as Catherine's age with short and spiky blue hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a Ra Yellow blazer, with a red shirt, jeans and yellow sneakers.

The other was a female the same age with long blue hair down to covering her back with blue eyes, wearing a Ra Yellow blazer, with a dark blue shirt, jeans and yellow sneakers.

Catherine sends a cold angered snarl at the two, which Yusuke, Kagome, and Kelly just gave them cold glares at them. The blue haired girl says, with a smile, "We've been looking all over for you."

The blue haired boy tells Catherine's friends, old and new, with a smile, "Hey! Sorry about that! I'm Aaron Lee!"

The blue haired girl says, with a smile, "And I'm Moon Lee, Aaron's younger twin sister!"

TK and Davis's eyes widened at this and TK thinks in his mind, stunned, "Oh no! Those are Catherine's friends!"

Davis thinks in his mind, seriously, "If that's the case, then…"

Aaron says, with a smile, "We're Catherine's childhood friends and…"

Catherine says, coldly, "Don't remind me, mate!"

Everyone, except for TK, Davis, Yusuke, Kagome, and Kelly, were surprised about this and Moon asks Catherine, perplexed, "What's going on, Cat!? Why are you acting this way!?"

Catherine huffs and she says, in a cold nasty tone, "If you're too dumb to figure it out, then don't ask me why, when you already know the answer!" Catherine walks away from the group and Aaron walks after her, but was stopped by a serious looking Yusuke Urameshi.

Aaron asks Yusuke, "What are you doing!?"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "What does it look like, asshole!? Stay the hell away from Catherine!"

Kelly says, in a cold nasty tone, "That's right! After the way, you toyed with her emotions, we don't want you anywhere near her, bastard!"

Mimi says, perplexed, "Toyed with her emotions!"

Hikari, Kira, Keiko, and Jaden think in their minds, serious and at the same time, "Sartorius!"

Davis and TK think in their minds, at the same time, "I know it!"

Aaron asks Yusuke, seriously, "Who do you think you are!?"

Yusuke says, with a cold sly grin, "Maybe, you've heard about me! The name's Yusuke Urameshi!"

Aaron and Moon yelps in shock and fear and Aaron says, fearfully, "Whoa! You mean you're THE Yusuke Urameshi! AKA the Great Urameshi, the infamous street thug from Sarayashiki Junior High!"

Yusuke says, with a cold serious tone, "That's right, asshole! And if you know what's good for you, you stay the fucking hell away from Catherine!" Yusuke then goes to the path that Catherine went to as Kagome and Kelly followed them.

Jun thinks in her mind, seriously, "What's going on here?! I've never heard Kelly cuss out anyone before!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Later, we find Aaron and Moon walking the hallways with distraught looks on their faces, after what happened earlier.

Aaron says, in a distraught tone, "I don't understand it! Why is Catherine acting as if she's mad at us?"

Moon says, in a solemn tone, "I don't know, bro! What's going on with her?"

Just then, a familiar feminine voice rings out, "I can answer that for you." The two turn to the source of the voice which were Genki Ayeka, Keiko Yukimura, Mina Tucker, Kino Tucker, Hikari Urameshi, and Kira Urameshi walking towards them as well as Kagome's 'former' friends, Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi.

Aaron says, seriously, "It's you three!"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "I'm sorry that you had to hear that from your friend or ex-friend."

Moon asks, curiously, "What do you mean by that?"

Yuka says, in a serious tone, "You're not going believe what were going to tell you, I think we should go to a secret location so we don't get any spies."

Kira says, in a plain tone, "Good idea." Soon after, the group, along with the Lee twins, came by the Slifer Red dorm and a familiar male voice calls out, "Hey what are you guys doing here?" Everyone turns to see Jaden walking towards them as well Davis and TK walking from the other side.

Eri says, nervously, "What do you mean by that…!?"

Jaden sighs and he says, "I think you guys should drop the act! I know what exactly is going on here!"

Keiko asks, "What do you mean by that?"

Jaden says, in a serious tone, "It's involving the Sartorius case, isn't it!?"

Kira says, stunned, "What a sec, Jay! How do you know that asshole's name!?"

Aaron asks, curiously, "Who's Sartorius?"

Jaden says, in a serious tone, "You guys aren't going to believe this, but…" Soon after, Jaden's body was flared up with blue spirit energy, which Davis, TK, Keiko, Hikari, and Kira were surprised to see this.

Hikari says, stunned, "Jay is that what I think it is!?"

Jaden nods his head and he says, seriously, "That's right! It's spirit energy and I'm the new Spirit Detective as well!"

Everyone, except for the Lee twins, gasp in shock and Davis says, stunned, "Wait a sec, Jay! You're a Spirit Detective too!"

Jaden asks, curiously, "What do you mean, Davis!?" Davis and TK's bodies were flared up with blue spirit energy as well, which everyone was surprised by this.

Kira says, surprised, "Spirit energy!"

TK says, in a serious tone, "That's right! We're Spirit Detectives as well as Jaden! Plus, we've gotten information that Yusuke was one way back as well as Yusuke, as well as Hikari and Kira's demonic ancestry."

Moon says, perplexed, "Demonic!"

Ayumi says, seriously, "Just let us explain!" Soon after, they told Aaron and Moon about the case involving Catherine and that she was brainwashed, along with Yusuke, Kagome, and Kelly.

Moon says, in a plain tone, "So that would explain Kagome Higurashi's 'Sick Girl' rep, though it's pretty hard to believe someone like her, who's as healthy as a horse, can ever be sick all the time."

Aaron says, in a serious tone, "You're saying that Catherine as been taken in by this Sartorius asshole for a year, through a pack of lies and deceit!"

Keiko nods her head and she says, seriously, "That's right! Aaron, did anything happen between you and Catherine, before Sartorius got his hands on her?"

Aaron thought about it and he gasps in shock. Aaron thinks in his mind, seriously, "It can't be that! Could it!?" Aaron says, in a serious tone, "Well, there was that time that she told me her feelings and I told her that she was only my friend and…!"

Ayumi yells at Aaron, annoyed, "You idiot! You shouldn't have told her that!"

Aaron was taken back at that and Eri says, seriously, "That's right! That's the worse thing that could a girl could hear from a guy that she may have a crush on!"

Aaron says, in a serious tone, "I was in love with someone else, but it turned out that it wasn't there! Yes, it was a mistake to have rejected Cat like that, but I would never hurt her like that!"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "And it was from that moment, Sartorius got her when her will was broken and weak."

Moon asks Keiko, "How do you know about that?"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "The same thing happened with me! I lost the boy that I love to that heartless asshole! Now, I'm a half-demon to get something that was stolen from me by that snake's slimy grasp!"

Yuka says, in a serious tone, "We lost someone that we cared for deeply like a sister! That asshole took Kagome away from us!"

Jaden tells Aaron, in a serious tone, "However, there's something else that you should know about Catherine, bro! It turns out that I got this from Koemna that Catherine's a half-demon, namely the Ma-zoku clan."

Everyone, except for Davis and TK, gasps in shock and Hikari says, in a serious tone, "Hold on! Are you saying that Catherine Maxwell is like us, including our brother!?"

Keiko says, amazed, "Koenma didn't tell us this!"

Davis says, in a serious tone, "Well, pacifier breath told TK and me about that as well!"

Aaron says, seriously, "I don't care if Catherine is a half-demon or not, I'm not going to lose her to that bastard, Sartorius!"

Moon nods her head and she says, in a serious tone, "That's right! Cat's our friend! That jerk is going to pay for toying with their emotions and messing up with their heads!"

Davis looks at Mina and Kino and he asks, "Now as for you two! How could I can sense demon auras from you two!?"

The Tucker twins were taken back at this and Mina says, in a plain tone, "There's a reason why we're here and it involves the case with Sartorius. We're here to aid Lady Keiko into stopping Sartorius and bring the one that she loves from his slimy grasps."

Keiko says, perplexed, "Lady?"

Kino nods his head and he says, in a serious tone, "That's right! You've been infused with one of the princesses of the To-zoku."

Jaden asks, in a curious tone, "So, in other words, sis is now a demon princess now."

Mina nods her head and she says, "My brother and I are from the Da-jinn clan and we're half-demons like our mistress, here."

Keiko calls out in her mind, seriously, "Okay, Supreme Princess, come out now!"

Yami Keiko's voice rings out, in a dark cold sly grin, "You rang, Kei!"

Keiko asks Yami Keiko, annoyed, "Why didn't you tell me that you were a demon princess?"

Yami Keiko replies, with a dark sly tone, "You never asked."

Keiko says, in an annoyed tone, "I'm getting real sick of you!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In a musty warehouse in the Kanto region of Japan, we find group of familiar figures walking towards the center of the warehouse. The figures are none other than the Japanese special tasks for on bent on finding 'Kira', who they found out that it was Light Yagami. The figures are Kanzo Mogi, Shuichi Aizawa, Touta Matsuda, and Hideki Ide.

Ide says, in a serious tone, "I don't see Near or any of the former SPK members."

Matsuda looks around the warehouse and he says, "Well, Near did call us to have us meet here."

Aizawa says, in a plain tone, "There must be some reason why he called us here!" Just then, footsteps were heard as they turned to see Near and the former SPK members, Gevanni, Halle, and Rester walking towards them.

Mogi asks Near, curiously, "Near, why have you called us here?"

Near gives a confused look, which is a rare to him, and he says, "What are you talking about? You called us here!"

Matsuda says, in a perplexed tone, "What do you mean!? We didn't give any message to come here!"

Gevanni asks, curiously, "Then, who did?"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold plain tone, "Well, well, what do we have here!? Near and the dweeb squad here!" Everyone turns to the source of the voice and they were stunned at the person who they saw. Light Yagami, wearing a black suit, with a black dress shirt, and black formal shoes and hanging down from his neck was the Orichalcos stone.

Matsuda says, shocked, "Light!"

Near says, in a rare surprised tone, "Light Yagami, but how!?"

Light says, with an evil sly grin, "Near, it's been a while! About a year's worth!"

Near says, in a serious tone, "I'm guessing that you're the one, who called all of us here!"

Light says, in a dark plain tone, "Bingo, twerp! Now, it's payback time!" Everyone, except for Near, drew their guns at Light and Aizawa says, in a serious tone, "You can't be alive! We saw your dead body in another warehouse! How could you be alive!?"

Light gives an evil chuckle and he says, "Oh let's just say that I had some help and this time, you will win!"

Near says, in a serious tone, "Don't count on it, Light Yagami! You were a murderer and this time, you'll be brought to justice!"

Light gives off a dark laughter as his new 'Orichalcos Note' notebook appeared his hands and Matsuda yells out, shocked, "It's the Death Note!"

Halle yells out, seriously, "Shoot him!" Soon after, everyone shot their guns at Light, but her super-speed, Sestuna appears, catching bullet that was fired. Everyone gasps in shock at the sight of Sestuna, and Mogi yells out, shocked, "What the hell's that!?"

Matsuda says, amazed, "Whoever she is, she's fast enough to catch everyone one of our bullets."

Near asks, amazed, "Is she a Shinigami as well?"

Sestuna crushes the bullets and she says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Not today, dweebs!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark nasty tone, "And to ensure that Light's plans work, your gun things have to go!" Soon after, the SPK and the task force members' guns were mysteriously sliced in half and fallen to the ground to their shock.

Gevanni says, stunned, "Our guns!" Soon after, Taigoku and Kasa appear by Light and Sestuna's sides, using super-speed.

Matsuda yells out, shocked, "More of them!"

Aizawa says, in a serious tone, "It looks like Light has made some new friends!"

Light says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Now, where was I?" Light opens his 'Orichalcos Note' notebook and he says, with an evil sly smile, "Oh yeah! That's right! The SPK and task forces' destruction as well as Near's."

Near says, in a sneer, "You forget, Light, that notebook is useless against me, unless you've obtained the Shinigami eyes like Misa Amane and Teru Mikami!"

Light says, with a dark cold sneer, "Ah! Misa! As soon as I take care of you, losers, I'll go after her to write her name in my new 'Orichalcos Note'."

Matsuda says, perplexed, "Orichalcos Note!"

Light says, in a dark tone, "That's right, dork! I've gotten a new notebook, new powers, and a new goal! To wipe out humanity with my new power! In the past, it was true that I killed many criminals as well as other people like L, Mello, Raye Pender, Naomi Misora, and Kiyomi Takada. True, at the cost of my father's life, to create a new world where there's no crime and only peace loving citizens, but it was worth it. Now, like I said earlier, I have a new goal in mind and it's to wipe out every human on the planet!"

Halle says, in a stunned tone, "Every human!"

Near says, in a serious tone, "You're insane if we're going to allow you to carry out your plans, Light Yagami!"

Light's eyes turned eerie green, similar to the Shinigami eyes that Misa Amane and Teru Mikami had, and he says, with an evil sly grin, "Well, see about that Near or should I say Nate River!"

Near gasps in shock and he asks, surprised, "How did you know!?"

Light says, with an evil sly grin, "These eyes helped me, twerp! These eyes are similar to the Shinigami eyes and now, I can carry out my plans, starting with you…Near!" Light quickly wrote Near's name on his Orichalcos Note.

Near gasps as he falls to the ground and Halle yells out, horrified, "Near!" Near's forehead gained the Seal of Orichalcos mark on it and he glows eerie green as he screams in shock as his soul was taken away from his body and he falls onto the ground, limp.

The former SPK and task force members gasps in shock at this and Light says, in a dark tone, "Who's next!!" SPK and task force former members begin to run towards the exit, but a kunai knife was thrown in front of them. Just then, Naruto appears in front of them, with his arms crossed on his chest.

Naruto says, with an evil sly smile, "Going somewhere, dorks!"

Mogi says, seriously, "Damn it! Not another one!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Face it, dweebs! You're not going anywhere!" Everyone turns to see Tai and WarGreymon by another exit.

Light says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Thank you, gentlemen!" Soon after, Light writes down every former member of the SPK and Japanese task force name on his 'Orichalcos Note' and the screams of them occurred through out the warehouse. Later, the bodies of Near as well as the former members of the SPK and Japanese task force were laid on the ground without souls.

Taigoku, Sestuna, and Kasa transformed back to Inuyasha, Melody, and Holly, and WarGreymon has transformed back to Agumon as they walked towards Light. Tai says, with a dark smile, "Nice work, Light!"

Light says, in a dark serious tone, "Now, that Near's out of the way, no one will stop us from creating a new world! However, there's Sartorius and his goons are in the way and with the power of the Orichalcos, Sartorius and his Light that's aiding him fall and the Great Leviathan will rise!"

Tai says, in a dark plain tone, "Hey, could we make a trip to my hometown, Odaiba?"

Light says, perplexed, "Odaiba? You lived there, before!"

Tai nods his head and he says, an evil sly grin, "Yes, there's a few certain people that I want to demonstrate my new powers too!"

Author's Note: I'd like to thank Michael the Archangel for his idea for Hinata's dream.
