Chapter 110: Hour of Desperation

(At a part of Academy Island; where we left Eternal Big Bang and Naraku)

In the battlefield on Academy Island, we find Eternal Big Bang and Naraku staring each other down with Eternal Big Bang with a dark cold sly grin on his lips and Naraku had an extremely annoyed look on his face with a slight glint of fear in his eyes, while the white-clad Yusuke Urameshi, along with the SOL controlled females AKA our heroes' and heroines' 'former' friends and allies, the Orichalcos Warriors, Eternal Star, Eternal Aquarius, Divine Fiery Pyre, Divine Comet, Divine Big Bang, and Divine Asteroid, and Amaya Suzuki and her group were watching this.

Kagome says, in a cold plain tone, "Naraku's scared…"

Divine Comet says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Inuyasha has Naraku on the ropes."

Divine Fiery Pyre says, in a dark cold sly tone, "Which means that Inuyasha has won the game!"

Naraku says, in an annoyed growl, "How did you acquire this much strength!? Enlighten me!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly grin and in a dark cold sarcastic tone, "I do a lot of push-ups and sit-ups and I drank plenty of water."

Naraku replies, with an angered growl, "Listen here! In the past, I would have on the ground! It was the combined powers of your Tetsusaiga, your miko's arrow, and your sisters' demonic priestess magic that defeated me, a year ago! Now, I've become even more powerful with the imbalance of light and darkness in this form that's even more stronger than my last form and I'm being overpowered by you and you alone, so tell me, how is it that you're stronger than me! It's not possible! You're bluffing!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Look, if you think I'm bluffing, call my bluff! Here, I know you're confused, so I'll make it easier for you!" Eternal Big Bang turns around and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "My back is turned! How's that!?"

Naraku replies with another angry growl and Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold taunting tone, "What's the matter, Naraku!? I don't think that I've seen you this angry before! Does it burn that you're being overpowered by a 'half-breed'!" Naraku was getting more angry by the minute as he raises his power further to create another earthquake and Kagome says, worriedly, "Oh man! I never seen Naraku this angry before!"

Robbie yells out, shocked, "Not another earthquake!"

Naraku says, with an angered glare, "You will pay for your insolence, Inuyasha!" Naraku jumps away to high grounds, kneels on his right knee, and cupped his hands behind him, and Sayuri asks, curiously, "What's he doing!?"

Naraku's hands glow with purple energy and he says, with an evil sly smile, "You forced me to do this, Inuyasha! This is a new technique that I've developed and even if I've missed this whole planet is going off in smoke! This is a blast that even my demonic barrier can withstand!"

Everyone gasps in horror at this and Yuka 2 yells out, shocked, "He's gone crazy!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Damn it! Not even my Spirit Gun or Spirit Wave can stop it! Inuyasha should have killed him when he had the chance!"

Naraku yells out, strongly, "Galick Gun, Fire!" Naraku fires a huge and powerful purple blast at Eternal Big Bang, who placed a dark cold sly smile as it hits his back, causing a huge explosion.

Kagome and Inuyasha's sisters yells out, horrified, "Inuyasha!" The impact was so powerful that some of the rocky grounds, including the one that Naraku was on, which made him fall to the ground. As the light dimmed off, there was a lot of smoke clearing out. Naraku gets up from the ground with an evil sly smile on his lips, however, he had a look of surprise on his face as he sees Eternal Big Bang with a dark cold sly smile.

Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "He's okay!"

Yusuke says, shocked, "No way! He survived!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "So, this is it, huh? Now, that's a joke! I thought that this would be a challenge! Ha! I can't believe that I was so worried about a third-rate loser like you!"

Naraku yells out, in an angered tone, "You will pay!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sneer, "I don't think so, Naraku! I'm afraid that you're outclassed in every way!"

Naraku yells out, strongly and fearfully, "No! Impossible! It's not true!" Naraku lets out a battle roar as he lungs at Eternal Big Bang, trying to kick him, but Eternal Big Bang 'teleports' away from the kick and appears behind Naraku and boots him in the face, throwing him away. Eternal Big Bang disappears from sight using his super-speed and appears behind Naraku as he was flying away and kicks him up to the sky. Eternal Big Bang then flies up into the sky and slams into Naraku's chest, throwing back to the ground, making a huge and loud thud, making a good sized dent on the ground.

Amaya says, winching, "That's got to hurt!"

Kagome thinks in her mind, stunned, "Whoa! Inuyasha's faster and stronger than Naraku now! There's no way that Naraku can win! That Galick Gun of his has to be the strongest attack there is!"

In the crater, Naraku tries to crawl on his hands and knees, panting and winching from the damage he's received. Naraku thinks in his mind, while panting, "How could he be so strong!? It doesn't make sense! I've tried everything on him! The imbalance of light and darkness was supposed to make me even more powerful than ever! How could this damn dog be stronger than me!?"

Just then, Eternal Big Bang's voice calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Naraku!" Naraku looks up and sees Eternal Big Bang landing on the ground with his feet, thinking, "This can't be happening!" Naraku gets onto his feet, slowly, and he walks slowly while dealing with the damages he's gotten. Naraku says, in an annoyed snarl and strongly, "I'm Naraku! Do you hear me!?"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly sneer, "You're nothing!"

Naraku roars out in pure rage as he disappears using his super-speed to get behind Eternal Big Bang to punch him, but Eternal Big Bang caught Naraku's fist, and throws him away in front of him, crashing into multiple mountain walls.

Kagome thinks in her mind, in a cold serious tone, "Inuyasha's stronger now, but it's dangerous to get into his head! He should finish Naraku off now when he has the chance!"

With Amaya and her group, Robbie says, in a nervous tone, "Hey, that dog guy is beating that creature up to a bloody pulp and since he's with Sato, I say we get out of here when we have a chance!"

Kraus says, with a snarl, "You have a point! But that doesn't mean that I'm afraid of that punk! I will make him pay for making me look like a joke!" Soon after, the four teenagers left the area with Eternal Aquarius noticing it with a dark cold sly smile and he thinks in his mind, "Well, I guess that they're doing the smart thing for a change! It wouldn't do much for revenge if they're dead!" Just then, Eternal Big Bang flies upward with Naraku following with blind rage, then fires multiple blasts at Naraku, pushing him back a bit, and infuriating Naraku even more so. Eternal Big Bang powers up another blast and throws it at Naraku, throwing him back to the ocean, which multiple blasts followed and slams into the direction where Naraku fell, which exploded on impact, making multiple pillars of water and Eternal Big Bang laughs, evilly at this.

Eternal Big Bang lands on the foot long ground, looking for any sign of Naraku, and he says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Now, where did he go!?" Just then, a small wave of water comes behind Eternal Big Bang and he does a back flip, but his legs were caught as Naraku appears from the waves with Eternal Big Bang's legs in his hands.

Naraku says, with a wide evil smile, "This is more like it! Now, if I can't kill you, then I might as well absorb you!" Just then, Naraku's flesh comes out and tries to surround him with it, but Eternal Big Bang lets out his demonic aura, which stops the flesh and angering Naraku even more.

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "What a pity!? You can't absorb me!"

Naraku yells out, angrily, "You are detestable!" Naraku tries to get his flesh around Eternal Big Bang, trying to absorb him, afterwards, but to no success, then Eternal Big Bang smashes his left elbow to Naraku's abdomen hard, knocking the wind out of him and making him letting Eternal Big Bang's legs up as he was floating in midair, upside down.

Naraku tumbles forward, but Eternal Big Bang caught him as he was beginning to fall and Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly tone, "What went wrong? You had me!" Eternal Big Bang then goes back to right side up and bashes Naraku away hard, throwing him away and smashes another mountain wall, then falls into the water.

Kagome says, with awe, "No way! What incredible strength! I hope that you're being careful, Inuyasha." Just then, Naraku jumps out of the ocean with an enraged look on his face and he yells out, strongly and an angered growl, "I will find a way to destroy you, half-breed! Just you wait!"

Eternal Big Bang places a dark cold wide smirk and he says, with a dark cold sly and taunting tone, "Was that what you were doing down there so long? Trying to find a way to beat me?" Eternal Big Bang then says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Well, it's not going to happen, Naraku! Face it! You were dealt a bad hand!" Eternal Big Bang raises his hand in a 'come and get it' way, angering Naraku even more, and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Come on!"

Naraku charges after him, but Eternal Big Bang lowers himself into the water with Naraku following him.

Yusuke says, in a cold annoyed tone, "What's Inuyasha think he's doing!? Is he going to finish this creep or what!? He's only playing with him!" While in the water, Naraku was trying to find Eternal Big Bang, but he couldn't find the half-demon Eternal Warrior, which was annoying him, even further. Naraku thinks in his mind, seriously, "Where is he!?" Just then, Naraku felt something above him and he blasts a shark that was above him. Naraku begins to power up more blasts and blasts everywhere, trying to find Eternal Big Bang, making multiple pillars of water at the surface.

Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Naraku can't hurt Inuyasha anymore!" Just then, a figure appears behind the Orichalcos controlled Eternal and Divine Warriors as they turned to see the Orichalcos controlled Izayoi, behind them, while floating in midair.

Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold smile, "Hey mom!"

Eternal Star says, in a dark cold plain tone, "I took it that you won your fight!"

Izayoi says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Well, we won, but our enemies ran off after when we're going to finish them off!"

Divine Comet says, in a dark cold snort, "Tipple cowardly villain tactics!"

Divine Asteroid says, in a dark cold sly tone, "Well, right now, Inuyasha is fighting this Naraku creep that was giving him and Melody a hard time in the Feudal Era and he's winning."

Izayoi says, in a dark cold plain tone, "He is!" Back in the water, Naraku was on the ocean floor and surrounded by a smoke in the water while trying to find Eternal Big Bang. Even though, he blasts so many places that anyone could hide, he knew that Eternal Big Bang was still alive. Naraku yells out, while underwater, "Hey, come out!" Just then, the ocean floor begins to get a crack, which got Naraku's attention. Just as the crumble comes towards him, a clawed hand came from the floor, grabs Naraku's right ankle, pulling Eternal Big Bang out from the ocean ground, which got Naraku to punch him, but missed and Eternal Big Bang starts to pummel Naraku hard and firing a huge blast at him, throwing him out of the ocean and Eternal Big Bang follows him out of the water as Naraku falls back into the water. Eternal Big Bang lands onto a cliff with his red demonic aura, drying him off, and turned off when he's done. Just then, Naraku jumps out of the water and lands on the ground, dripping wet and looking angrier than ever. Naraku then wipes his face of the water and glares at Eternal Big Bang.

Izayoi asks, looking at Naraku, "Is that the half-demon, Naraku?"

Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold snort, "That's him!"

Divine Asteroid says, with a dark cold sly smile, "And judging by the looks of him, I'd say that he hates to be the loser!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "You should see the look on your face right now, Naraku! How would you like to know where I got most of my strength and many others like me!"

Naraku yells out, annoyed, "What!?"

Eternal Big Bang points at his mother and his sisters and he says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Allow me to introduce to you my younger twin sisters and my mother! The two female half-demons are Megumi and Holly in their Divine Warrior forms with Megumi as Divine Asteroid and Holly as Divine Comet! Also, they're just as strong and powerful as me as well as Melody in her Divine Warrior form and like me and Melody, they too have the 'Celestial Embodiment' Kekkai Genkai which we've got from the woman with them!"

Naraku looks at Inuyasha's sisters and mother and he says, shocked, "You mean that woman is…"

Eternal Big Bang says, in a dark cold serious tone, "That's right, Naraku! That's my mother, Izayoi! She's where I've got my 'Celestial Embodiment' Kekkai Genkai and also did it feel strange that you were losing most of the time we were fighting! I'll tell you my secret! The other thing that I've got from my mother was the genetic trait, Evolutionary Enhancement."

Naraku gasps in true terror and he says, fearfully, "Evolutionary Enhancement! No! You have that…ability!"

Eternal Big Bang says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Do you know how fruitless this is!? I've been allowing you to deceive yourself that's all! You never had a chance to win! If by some miracle that you got past me, my sisters and mother would finish you off! Face it, Naraku, you took a gamble and you've lost!"

Naraku glares at Eternal Big Bang and he yells out, with an annoyed growl, "It doesn't make sense! Even with the Evolutionary Enhancement and Celestial Embodiment, there's no way you could be even stronger than me! How did you get all this power!? Curse you!"

Eternal Big Bang says, in a dark cold nasty tone, "You're the one, who started this game when you tricked that worthless priestess, Kikyo, and I into hating each other when I was stupid enough to be in love with that whore! Now, I couldn't care less about that, but there's the fact that you were giving me a lot of problems like almost trying to kill me when you had one of those worthless older brothers of mine, Sesshomaru, trying to steal my sword and many others which I don't think I'll ever forgive you for! And now, that you're losing is no fun anymore! You're just a big baby! And don't even try to use that miasma of yours to escape like you usual do, since my Millennium Pendent protects me from any anti-biological potions like your poisonous miasma and the moment that you even try, I'll kill right in the spot!"

Naraku lets out a loud roar in anger as the ground behind him, begins to crack, and he yells out, angrily, "You wouldn't be talking to me this way if I've absorbed the Shikon Jewel and Crimson Dragon! You would be nothing!"

Izayoi says, in a dark cold plain tone, "So, he knows all about the jewel and the Crimson Dragon!"

Eternal Star says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Yep!"

Naraku growls in anger and he thinks in his mind, seriously, "There's got to be a way to escape! Inuyasha's Millennium Pendent is a real bother and my miasma won't help me this time!" Naraku then places an evil sly smile and he thinks in his mind, "Of course!" Naraku tells Eternal Big Bang, in a serious tone, "Inuyasha, allow me to escape with the Shikon Jewel and allow me to try to attempt to absorb the Crimson Dragon! As a warrior with two legendary abilities, you could appreciate a good challenge."

Eternal Big Bang says, in a dark cold serious tone, "You still sound like a baby that trying to get his way! No way, Naraku, I'm not going to allow you to escape! No! Today is the day that you die and gone from our lives, forever!"

At the response, Naraku roars out in frustration, "This isn't happening!" At this, the rocks begins to rumble and Naraku screams out, "No! This can't be happening!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Alright, Naraku, it's time to say your prayers, because it's time for you to say goodbye!"

Naraku stares at Eternal Big Bang with fear not seen in his eyes and he thinks in his mind, seriously, "No! This can't be! I'd thought that would work!" Naraku calls out, begging, "Inuyasha, please! Let me go! I'm begging you! I'm asking for you to just give me the jewel and let me pass to absorb the Crimson Dragon!"

Kagome says, in a cold plain tone, "I never thought that I'd see the day that Naraku actually begs one of his enemies for his life."

Tenten says, in a cold serious tone, "With the way that Inuyasha is, he'll never give Naraku that chance!"

Eternal Big Bang raises his right hand to Naraku's direction and he says, powering up a red blast, "I don't think so!" Eternal Big Bang fires the blast at Naraku, giving him no time to escape as it, pushes him away and knocks down a few trees. Eternal Big Bang uses his flash step to disappear from his spot to reappear by Naraku, who was lying on the ground. Naraku slowly remove his head from the ground and he looks up to see Eternal Big Bang's dark cold glance at him.

Naraku gets off an annoyed snarl from his lips, thinking in his mind, angrily, "No! I refuse to accept this as my fate! Killed by this dog! This wretched lowly half-demon!" Naraku yells out, in a real strong and angered tone, "NO! I WILL NOT BE KILLED BY A MISERABLE HALF-DEMON!!! TAIGOKU OR NOT!!!" Naraku jumps to his feet and starts to fire multiple spikes from his mouth at Eternal Big Bang, but Eternal Big Bang disappears from sight. Just then, Eternal Big Bang's right foot smashes Naraku's left check hard, making him tumble a bit as Eternal Big Bang lands on his feet.

Naraku charges after Eternal Big Bang and throws a few punches at him, but he couldn't hit him and Eternal Big Bang smashes his fist to Naraku's stomach, knocking the wind out of him, and kicks him away and slamming him to a boulder, breaking it. Naraku slowly sits up and he says, "No! I will not be defeated!"

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Funny, were those your last words!"

Naraku yells out, angrily, "I'LL KILL YOU FOR THIS OUTRAGE, HALF-BREED!!" Naraku lunges after Eternal Big Bang, but Eternal Big Bang places his hands onto Naraku's chest, making Naraku fearful to know that he's worked into a trap as he sees the evil sly smile on Eternal Big Bang's lips as his hands glows to power up a blast and Naraku yells out in shock and extreme pain as he's blown away in a huge red blast.

Naraku yells out, horrified, "NO, YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! I'M INVINCIBLE!!! THIS CAN'T BE! HOW COULD I LOSE A MISERABLE HALF-BREEDED DOG?!!" Soon after, Naraku cries out as he is totally vaporized and where he was, there was a good sized crater.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Kagome says, with awe, "He…he did it!"

Yusuke says, in a cold plain tone, "Yeah, I don't sense Naraku's aura anymore! It's vanished when Inuyasha fired his attack!"

With Inuyasha's family, Eternal Star, Eternal Aquarius, and Divine Fiery Pyre, Divine Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Well, I didn't think that we'd have that much trouble with Naraku before. I didn't think that it'll be that easy for Inuyasha to kill him."

At the crater, Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Rest in pieces, Naraku." Soon after, Eternal Big Bang and the other 'transformed' Orichalcos warriors return to their 'regular forms'.

Melody says, with a dark cold sly tone, "It's about time."

Izayoi tells Inuyasha, with a dark cold smile, "Excellent work, Inuyasha. You have made me proud."

Inuyasha says, with a dark cold smile, "Thanks, mom."

Holly asks, curiously, "What about the Crimson Dragon? We saw it appear in the sky. How did that happen?"

Izayoi says, with a dark cold plain tone, "Something must have forced it to emerge at last. It is a sign that the 'Signers' strength is growing."

Inuyasha says, with a dark cold plain tone, "I think that Yukimura is responsible for that. That girl… out of all of those dorks with those so-called 'heroes' and 'heroines', she has got to be one of the most powerful."

Naruto tells Inuyasha, with a dark cold plain tone, "You took care of her before."

Melody asks Naruto, with a dark cold serious tone, "Did you remember what her 'dark side' did to you before? What if the 'Supreme Princess' takes over her 'light side'? Or her 'light self' overcomes her 'dark side'?"

Izayoi says, with a nod, "I agree. The only thing keeping Keiko Yukimura in check is that her spirit is divided into two halves and if one overcomes the other, then she can put her full strength to bare on us."

Just then Ranma and his sister appear and he says, with a dark cold serious tone, "We have something else, guys!"

Inuyasha asks, curiously, "What's up, Ranma?"

Hotaru says, with a dark cold plain tone, "Master Dartz just told us telepathically that he sensed a new 'dark force' on the island. The 'Dark Signers' have arrived."

There are plenty of gasps through majority of them from the SOL members and Izayoi asks, curiously, "The enemies of the 'Signers'?"

Ranma says, with a dark cold plain tone, "That's what Master Dartz told us. He told us to return to think about our future plans."

Inuyasha turns to the SOL member and he says, with a dark cold sly tone, "It's your lucky day, dorks!"

Melody says, with a dark cold sinister sly smile, "Your pounding can come later!" Soon after, all of the Orichalcos member run off into the distance.

Kagome yells out, pleadingly, "Wait! Inuyasha!" However, the Orichalcos warriors don't listen as they leave.

Sakura asks, curiously, "Aren't those 'Dark Signers' out for Keiko's and the other 'Signers' lives?"

Yusuke says, with a cold serious tone, "That's right, Sakura! Master Sartorius told us that the 'Dark Signers' will stop at nothing to kill them since they are the only 'obstacle' in the way of their plans!"

Kagome asks, worriedly, "What do we do?"

Tenten tells Kagome, with a cold serious tone, "There is nothing we can do now! Let's report back to Master Sartorius!" As our SOL members prepare to head back, Kagome looks solemnly where Inuyasha and the other Orichalcos warriors have run off.

(Back with our heroes and heroines; on the meanwhile)

Returning to our heroes and heroines, we find Erin some distance away from the rest of the group with Melissa, Rika, and Takara going over to her.

Melissa asks Erin, with a plain tone, "Something troubling you?"

Erin says, with a plain tone, "Great danger will be coming for the 'Signers' soon."

Takara asks, curiously, "You mean you can feel those 'Dark Signers'?"

Erin says, with a plain tone, "I'm connected with nature and the 'Dark Signers' are abominations that disrupt the flow of life like the Society of Light and Orichalcos."

Rika says, with a plain tone, "And that means 'yes', Takara."

Melissa asks Erin, "There is more to it than that, is it?"

Erin tells Melissa, plainly, "This is not the best place to discuss it. I don't want to throw any suspicions on anyone just yet."

Rika asks, curiously, "What do you mean?"

Melissa looks Erin intently and she just sighs in which Melissa tells Rika, "It is about Keiko Yukimura."

Takara asks, curiously, "The 'Supreme Princess'?"

Melissa replies, with a plain tone, "It's more than that, Takara. We have seen 'darker visions' about Keiko Yukimura and we think there is more to the 'Supreme Princess' than we believe. Even through Erin won't admit it, I had a vision. I saw a young Keiko Yukimura, barely a child, in a hospital bed and she was dying."

Rika asks, curiously, "Dying?"

Melissa says, with a nod, "That's right, Rika. Hikari and Yusuke, as little kids, were with her and Hikari, her mother, and father were pleading for her to come back to life, so to speak, but a 'dark shadow' creep closer to Keiko before our vision faded out."

Erin tells Rika and Takara, "Don't say anything about this, but we must keep a closer eye on her. Keiko could still become what Sarina told her she could be. Keiko's paths are many and we need to make sure that she follows the 'correct path' or she could be the world's doom." Rika and Takara nod their heads in unison at this statement.

Melissa says, with a plain tone, "We also need to keep a close eye on the other 'Signers' especially Jaden Yuki. There is just something familiar about his Neo-Spacian heroes. Erin and I have our theories."

Erin says, with a plain tone, "There is also something about Daisuke Motomiya and Takeru Takashi as well. There are very good reasons that they become 'Signers'."

Melissa says, with a plain tone, "Also, keep an eye on Hikari Urameshi. There is an aura of 'dark' foreshadowing around her." Rika and Takara nod their heads in unison, but their conversation doesn't go unnoticed by Hiei and Kurama.

Miroku says, with awe, "Naraku's aura…it's gone!"

Sango says, in a surprised tone, "Inuyasha's defeated Naraku."

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Inuyasha's aura was much bigger than Naraku's from the start and Inuyasha allowed his fight with him to drag out. It was a simple game of cat and mouse with Inuyasha as the cat and Naraku as the mouse."

Jaken says, stunned, "I can't believe that Inuyasha managed to kill Naraku so easily."

Kurama says, in a serious tone, "This is much as we feared! Inuyasha's demon energy has increased greatly by the minute, making it harder to save him and his sisters."

Shippo says, in a horrified tone, "Not to mention that some of our old enemies may have come back even stronger."

Cologne says, in a plain tone, "And I fear that they'll be more to come."

Just then, Koenma's voice calls out, "You are right, Elder Cologne." Everyone whips their heads to see Koenma, Botan, in her female adult Obelisk Blue uniform and carrying a box decorated in multiple Japanese symbols and artistry, and Gennai walking towards them.

Genki and Davis say, annoyed, "Damn it, Koenma! For once, I wish you would stop that!"

TK notices the brown box in Botan's hands and he asks, curiously, "What's in the box?"

Botan looks at the box and she replies, in a plain tone, "What I have here is something for Genki."

Genki asks, curiously, "What is it?"

Koenma replies, in a plain tone, "That's right! What's in this box is the rest of the Crystal Beast legacy."

Tiara asks, perplexed, "The rest of the 'Crystal Beasts' legacy'? What the hell is that?"

Yeshua says, explaining, "Genki Sakura's and Jesse Anderson's Crystal Beast decks were created from the fragments of seven rare gems brought by Julius Caesar of Rome from all over the known world by Maxamillion Pegasus and Mister Sakura's Rainbow Dragon created from the tablets containing the Rainbow Dragon spirits, but as you know, in life, the balance is made by light and darkness. Mister Sakura's Crystal Beast deck and the one held by Jesse Anderson hold only the 'light' half of the power of the Crystal Beasts. There is another deck that contains the 'Dark half' of the power of the Crystal Beasts. It is known as the Advanced Crystal Beast deck."

Genki replies, stunned, "Advanced Crystal Beast deck?"

Jesse says, with a nod, "Yeah! I've got a deck like that for my own Crystal Beast deck!"

Syrus says, in a shocked tone, "That's another Forbidden Deck!"

Yeshua replies, with a nod, "Yes. In order to balance out the power of the Crystal Beasts, another deck that was created that held the 'shadow half' of the Crystal Beasts' power, which now also holds the 'dark half' of the Rainbow Dragon's power, in a card known as Rainbow Dark Dragon, which was created with the two Rainbow Dragon cards in order to balance out the 'light' Rainbow Dragons. However, it is a forbidden deck with incredible dark powers and it takes a strong soul to 'tame' and utilize its powers fully. It is not an 'evil' deck, just a powerful 'dark' one, which can be used for good or evil. It is the 'Dark' that balance out the regular Crystal Beasts' 'Light', but the 'dark versions of the Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dragon, the Advanced Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dark Dragon, are powerful 'dark' spirits and Genki will need to be strong to 'tame' them."

Genki says, in a serious tone, "If that deck can help kick the butt of those fucking SOBs, Sartorius and Dartz, and free Holly, Tai, and the others, then I will do what it takes to get that deck and use it to stop those assholes, the Society of Trash, and the Orichalcos!"

Hassleberry tells Genki, in a serious tone, "Are you sure that this is wise, soldier?"

Keiko says, with a serious tone, "Yeah! Forbidden decks are no joke and I've got experience from mine!"

Genki says, with a serious tone, "Personally, I wouldn't approve of unlocking one of those types of decks, but in order to beat that freak and our friends, family, and loved ones we need this! Even with the 'Signers', Egyptian Gods, and Darkness Cards, we need every edge that we need against those freaks." Genki walks up to Yeshua, takes the box, and opens it to reveal a Duel Monsters' deck inside. Genki then takes the cards into his hand, but then groans in pain as the dark violet aura engulfs his arm and he says, groaning in pain, "What…What's going on here?!"

Genki's friends yell out, horrified, "Genki!"

Just then a darker version of Genki's Sapphire Pegasus calls out, "Do you really think that you can control us, little lad?!" Just then the dark violet aura goes over to Genki and transforms into seven darker versions of Genki's Crystal Beasts and dark brown and black version of Genki's Rainbow Dragon.

Koenma calls out, stunned, "The spirits of the deck!"

The darker version of Genki's Amethyst Cat calls out, in a dark taunting tone, "That's right, Prince Koenma! Your Spirit Detective should have learned not to mess with powers beyond his control."

The darker version of Genki's Cobalt Eagle says, sounding like Al Capone from the cartoons, "That's right, see! We are not so easily tamed see and now, she is going to pay the price!" Soon after, Genki yells out in pain as dark aura from the deck increases in intensity and threatens to shallow him.

Botan calls out, horrified, "Genki!" Just then the spirits of Genki's seven Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dragon appear in front of the two of them and everyone is surprised to see them.

Amethyst Cat yells out, seriously, "I don't care you are 'dark' versions of us! You are not going to hurt his without getting through all of us first!"

The darker version of Genki's Amber Mammoth says, with a dark tone, "Just try you little runt of a kitty cat!"

Amber Mammoth yells out, seriously, "You asked for it!"

Most of our heroes and heroines prepare to help him, but Genki says, weakly, "No…!" As his spirit energy bursts out from his body, Genki gets to his feet and he says, weakly, "I will…I will handle this…" Everyone looks at Genki, a Millennium Symbol appears on his forehead, and he yells out, groaning in pain, but strongly, "There is too much for me to lose…I can't turn back now…here are people counting me…people that I love…my friends…my family…and the person that I hold dear to my heart…I can't let them down…I won't let them down…I won't be stopped by anyone or anything…THERE IS TOO MUCH FOR ME TO LOSE…I CAN'T AND WON'T GIVE UP EVER!!" Just then Genki's symbol blazes with golden light, forcing everyone to cover their eyes for a moment, and when the light dies down. Soon after, his golden and black aura, along with his spirit energy, overtakes the dark violet aura of the deck and the Advanced Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dark Dragon groan out in pain as they struggle against our Monster Champ and Spirit Detective. Genki shouts out, with a strong and serious tone, "Advanced Crystal Beasts! Rainbow Dark Dragon! You will give your powers to me! I will not be conquered by you! Now, give me your power!" Genki yells out as he sends more golden and black energy into the deck and Advanced Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dark Dragon groan as they try to struggle, but after a few minutes, the will of one of Koenma's Spirit Detectives was too strong with one final cry or roar, the spirits of the Advanced Crystal Beasts and Rainbow Dark Dragon bow their heads in defeat as Genki's aura mixes in with dark violet aura from their cards.

The darker version of Topaz Tiger says, in a dark defeated tone, "You have won the battle of wills. You will was more than strong enough to conquer our power. We bow to your will, Mister Sakura."

The darker version of Cobalt Eagle says, in a dark serious tone, "Our power belongs to you now, see."

The darker version of Sapphire Pegasus tells Kagome, darkly, "And the power of the Rainbow Dark Dragon as well. We are at your service."

Genki replies, with a smile, "Thank you."

(Within the White Dorm; At the same time)

Within Sartorius' headquarters in the 'White Dorm', we find our heroes' and heroines' 'former' friends/allies and loved ones assembled in front of Sartorius when Yusuke, Gaomon, and the SOL girls toward them what had happened in the fight between Eternal Big Bang and Naraku.

Sartorius says, in a rare surprised tone, "Lord Inuyasha has defeated your old enemy, Naraku, so easily."

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "Yes sir!"

Yusuke says, in a cold plain tone, "Inuyasha's demon energy has increased since we last saw him fight. The good news that came from it that I, along with Melody, Holly, and Naruto, killed those Thunder Brothers."

Sakura says, in a cold plain tone, "I couldn't believe that Naruto could do that and how strong he's become. Also, Ranma and Hotaru Saotome revealed that those 'Dark Signer' guys have come on this island."

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "This is most disturbing! The seal of the Nazca Lines has weakened so recently and soon the 'Dark Signers' will come after Miss Yukimura and the other 'Signers' among the nonbelievers."

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Master Sartorius, we have to bring Keiko into the Light now before those creeps get her and I'm getting the feeling that witch, the 'Supreme Princess' would get control of her real soon!"

Sartorius tells Yusuke, "I know how you must feel, Mister Urameshi. I know that you still blame yourself for what had happened between you and Miss Yukimura, a year ago, but you must be patient. If you were to after her now, your sisters, with their minds clouded by darkness, will attack you without any remorse. Right now, as a 'Chosen Duelist', you may be the only one that can bring Miss Yukimura into the Light and it wouldn't work if you're blindly rushing into the nonbelievers' territory and giving yourself trapped."

Kagome tells Yusuke, in a cold plain tone, "I know how you feel, Yusuke! Even though, you guys told me this already, but I blame myself for allowing that freak, Dartz, to get Inuyasha and his family brainwashed."

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "Yeah and it still burns me up that Ranma is still under Dartz's control because of me, even if you guys say that isn't true! However, once Ranma is with me, I'll make sure that I'll never make the same mistakes that I've been doing."

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "With the rise of the 'Dark Signers', we'll have to plan to stop them as well as the Orichalcos and the nonbelievers. You are all dismissed." The SOL members bowed to him as they start to leave and Kagome thinks in her mind, in a cold serious tone, "Inuyasha keeps getting stronger and stronger every day, while he's the under of the Orichalcos. I knew that he was even stronger than Yusuke, but I didn't think that he was even stronger than someone like Naraku. I don't think I can take another minute of him being under that freak, Dartz! I have to get him out of there! Inuyasha's always risking his life just to protect me in the past and it's my turn to do the same for him!" As Kagome left the room, she walked away from her fellow SOL members and she thinks in her mind, "But how?" Just then, an idea came into Kagome's head, which made her place a cold smile on her lips and she says, "Of course! I need to pick a certain person within the nonbelievers to help me get Inuyasha into the Light and make up for what I've done and I know who to pick! With Inuyasha's help, we'd be able to plot to take down Dartz and his whole organization as well as free those under his control, especially Ranma and Naruto!"

(Inside of Obelisk Arena; A few hours later)

Within Obelisk Arena, we find Genki Sakura with a duel disk attached to his left wrists walking around with a PDA in his right hand walking inside of Obelisk Arena. We find that there is a message in Genki's PDA.

The massage says:

Dear Genki,

It is finally time that we demonstrate the true power of the Society of Light. Meet me in Obelisk Arena and come alone! No demons, no half-demons, no other Spirit Detectives, no Digimon, and no other fighters! Just you and your deck! But don't expect to win, dork, because destiny is on our side!

Sincerely,

Chazz Princeton

Genki says, in a dark annoyed tone, "Where is that rotten Princeton hiding!?"

Just then, a familiar male voice shouts out, in a cold serious tone, "As if, I'd hide from you, Sakura!" Genki whips his head to see a group of SOL members, led by Chazz Princeton, Alexis Rhodes, Sakura Haruno, and Kagome Higurashi.

Genki says, in a dark sly tone, "I think you geeks just love losing!"

Sakura yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Well, I've had it with you nonbelievers getting ahead of us!"

Chazz says, in a cold serious tone, "And don't expect those Crystal Beasts of yours to help, since we know about them as well."

Genki says, in a dark serious tone, "Yeah and you'll lose to them, dork!"

Chazz snaps his fingers and calls out, coldly, "And now, time to begin!" Soon after, metal gates fall down and sealing all of the exits/entrances to Obelisk Arena.

Genki yells out, with a dark annoyed tone, "Hey! What the hell is this?!"

Alexis replies, with a cold nasty tone, "Insurance that your dorky friends don't interfere with us. Those gates are infused with electric energy empowered by the Light of Truth, Genki. Your friends' dark powers can't help them get through now!"

Genki yells out, with a dark serious tone, "I won't need my friend's help to crush you, bitch!"Chazz moves over as Reginald Van Howell III, who has a duel disk with his dueling deck inside attached to his left wrist, comes up and Chazz tells Reginald, with a cold plain tone, "You know what to do, Reginald. Bring Genki into the Light."

Reginald tells Chazz, with a cold sly smile, "Right!" Reginald and Genki step onto the platform, they activate their duel disks, which display 8000 life-points each, the two duelists draw five cards from their decks and prepared to duel.

"Let's duel!" Genki and Reginald yell out in unison.

Starting Scores:

Reginald: 8000

Genki: 8000

Genki draws one card from his deck and he yells out, with a dark sly grin, "Now, it is time for the fun to begin!" Just then the whole area is engulfed in darkness and shadows.

Alexis says, in a cold annoyed tone, "Oh come on!"

Reginald yells out, stunned, "Not this again!"

Genki says, with a dark sly grin, "Oh, yes, again, geek! But this time, things are going to be different!" Just then everyone finds themselves within the tomb of the Millennium Stone with the gates of the Afterlife.

Reginald asks, perplexed, "Where the hell are we?" Just then black bracelets appear on their arms and black metal collars on their necks with the Millennium Symbol in the center and Reginald asks, perplexed, "What in the hell are these?!"

Genki replies, with a dark sly grin, "This is a replica of tomb where the Millennium Stone once was and the gates to the Afterlife into the Spirit World. And these bracelets are my Shadow Bracelets and every time that we lose life-points, we get one hell of a nasty shock directly to our system. You know is quite ironic since this is where your tomb is going to be dork!"

Reginald yells out, with a cold serious tone, "Just try it, Sakura!"

Genki calls out, with a dark sly grin, "As you wish, dork! Time to get your game on!" Genki's Field Spell slots opens, Genki puts a card in the slot, and Genki yells out, darkly, "First, I play my Advanced Dark Field Spell!" Just then a huge circle of blue flames surround Reginald and Genki.

Reginald calls out, stunned, "What in the world is this?!"

Genki yells out, with a dark sly grin, "This is my Advanced Dark Field Spell and it allows me to summon a new breed of monsters to the field!" Genki puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, with a dark sly grin, "Meet Advanced Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus!" Soon after, a piece of sapphire appears on the field, it gives off a dark orange glow, and it transforms into Advanced Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus (1800/1200), a darker and more sinister looking version of Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus, appears on the field in attack mode.

Reginald yells out, shocked, "What the!?"

Kagome yells out, in a stunned tone, "What is that!? Sapphire Pegasus!?"

Genki exclaims, with a dark sly tone, "No, dweeb! This is Advanced Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth, the dark version of Amber Mammoth!"

Alexis asks, stunned, "The 'Dark Version' of a Crystal Beast?"

Genki rolls his eyes and yells out, with a dark nasty tone, "That's what I said, nerd! For a dork that's supposed to know everything, you sure like a bimbo! Here's the thing: When Pegasus created the Crystal Beast decks, he infused them with the 'light' side of the power of the Crystal Beasts and the Rainbow Dragon as well, but with the Crystal Beasts creation came a lot of 'dark' energy and Pegasus created a deck, a Forbidden deck, infused with the `dark energies' for the creation of the Crystal Beast cards and the Rainbow Dragon card. Namely, this deck, the Advanced Crystal Beast/Rainbow Dark Dragon deck and it is said a duelist with a strong will can harness the dark powers within this deck without getting overwhelmed! Well, guess what?! I'm the one!"

Reginald yells out, shocked, "You've harness the power of a Forbidden deck?!"

Genki yells out, with a dark nasty tone, "Ding! Ding! Ding! The white moron wins a prize! And for his right guess: One major smack down from this Forbidden deck and all its dark powers! Like this one…" Genki takes out his deck from his disk, fans it and he says, darkly, "…when Advanced Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus is summoned, I can take a Crystal Beast monster from my deck and place it in my spell and trap zone." Genki takes out a card and displays it as his Advanced Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger (1600/1000) monster card that has a picture of a darker and more sinister looking version of Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger and he says, with a dark sly smile, "And I choose my Advanced Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger!" Genki puts the card into the spell/trap slot and a piece of topaz appears in his spell and trap zone. Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "And with that, I'll end my turn!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "We didn't think that there would be a 'Dark Version' of the Crystal Beasts!"

Reginald draws one card and calls out, coldly, "It's about time!" Reginald puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, "I play my Marauding Captain in attack mode!" Soon after, Marauding Captain (1200/400) appears on the field in attack mode. Reginald puts another card onto his duel disk and he says, in a cold serious tone, "And when he's normal summoned, I summon another four star monster from my hand! And I choose my Gearfried the Iron Knight!" Soon after, Gearfried the Iron Knight (1800/1600) comes to the field in attack mode. Reginald then sends a card into the spell/trap slot and he says, coldly, "Then, I play The Allied Forces, which gives my monsters a two hundred attack point bonus for ever Warrior-type monster on my side of the field!" Just then, Marauding Captain's stats increase from 1200/400 to 1600/400 and Gearfried's stats increase from 1800/1600 to 2200/1600. Reginald calls out, in a cold serious tone, "Gearfried, take out Mr. Ed over there!" Gearfried charges over to Advanced Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus, slashes it with his forearms and it cries out in pain as it was destroyed. It transforms into a piece of dark blue sapphire in Genki's spell and trap zone.

Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "Whenever my Sapphire Pegasus is destroyed, it gets put in my spell and trap zone."

Reginald says, in a cold serious tone, "Hey, weren't you supposed to lose life-points!?"

Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "Not quite! Whenever, one of my Advanced Crystals is destroyed in a battle, I can send a Crystal Beast monster from my deck to negate the damage!" Genki goes through his deck, takes Advanced Crystal Beast Cobalt Eagle (1400/800) monster card out that had a picture of a darker and more sinister version of Crystal Beast Cobalt Eagle, and discards him to the graveyard causing Genki's life-points not to change one bit.

Chazz exclaims, in disbelief, "You've got to be kidding me!"

Genki says, with a dark sly grin, "Sorry, dork, but that the way the Crystal crumbles…for you anyway!"

Reginald yells out, in a cold nasty tone, "So what!? You can't stop my direct attack! Marauding Captain, show him!" Marauding Captain charges after Genki, slashes him with his sword, which makes a cut in Genki's trench coat and the dark electricity hits him, but Genki doesn't scream out in pain and he loses 1600 life-points.

Reginald yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Oh come on! That had to hurt!"

Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "Sorry, I don't feel a thing!"

Reginald says, coldly, "I end my turn!"

Current Score:

Reginald: 8000

Genki: 6200

Genki draws one card from his deck and calls out, darkly, "It's about time, dweeb!" Genk sends a card into the spell/trap slot and he calls out, "I activate Crystal Beacon! Since I have two Crystal Beasts in my spell and trap zone, I can summon another Crystal Beast or Advanced Crystal Beast from my deck and I choose…Advanced Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle!" Soon after, a dark green piece of emerald comes onto the field and it transforms into Advanced Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle (600/2000), a darker and more sinister version of Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle, appears on the field in defense mode. Genki then puts another card onto his duel disk and he says, in a dark serious tone, "Then, I normal summon Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat!" A piece of amethyst comes onto the field, it gives off a dark violet glow, and the crystal transforms into Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat (1200/400), the darker and more sinister version of Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat, comes to the field in attack mode. Genki then yells out, darkly, "Now, I cut her power in half in order for my wild cat to take a bite out of you directly!" Amethyst Cat's stats reduce down from 1200/400 to 600/400 and Genki yells out, with a dark sly grin, "Okay, girl, make him into your own personal scratching post!"

Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat says, with a dark sinister grin and tone, "It would be my pleasure!" Amethyst Cat leaps at Reginald and slashes him multiple times causing Reginald to cry out in pain as his arms get two bloody scratches each and then Reginald cries out in pain as he is shocked with dark electric energy as he loses 600 life-points.

Genki says, in a dark plain tone while placing a card into the spell/trap slot, "I think that'll be enough!"

Current Score:

Reginald: 7400

Genki: 6200

Reginald draws his card and he says, in a cold annoyed tone, "You'll pay for that!" Reginald places a card onto his duel disk and he calls out, "I sacrifice my captain to summon…Silent Swordsman level five!" Marauding Captain disappears and Silent Swordsman LV5 (2300/1000-2500/1000) appears on the field in attack mode. Reginald then sends a card into another spell/trap slot and he says, coldly, "Then, I'll play White Veil!" Just then, Silent Swordsman turns pitch white with dark violet glowing eyes.

Alexis says, with a cold sly smile, "It's over!"

Reginald says, in a cold strong tone, "Once my swordsman attacks, all of your spell and traps are gone, which means those damned beasts of yours too! Silent Swordsman attack!" Silent Swordsman charges after Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat.

Genki presses a button on his duel disk and he calls out, "Sorry, dweeb! I play Darkness Veil and give it to my cat!"

Chazz yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Not again!" Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat turns more black with red glowing eyes and Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "Now, your White Veil and your other spell and traps are gone!"

Reginald yells out, horrified, "No!" Reginald's White Veil and Allied Forces spell cards were destroyed, turning Silent Swordsman into its usual colors and lowering his stats to 2300/1000 and Gearfried's stats to 1800/1600.

Reginald yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "You'll pay for that! Swordsman, attack!" Silent Swordsman slashes Advanced Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat, destroying her, which turns her into a piece of amethyst in Genki's spell/trap zone.

Genki takes out in his Advanced Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth (1700/1600) monster card out that had a picture of a darker and more sinister version of Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth in it and he says, in a dark plain tone, "I don't think so! Whenever, an Advanced Crystal Beast is destroyed, by sending a crystal to the graveyard, I take no damage!"

Reginald yells out, in a cold nasty tone, "It's only a matter of time before you lose those damned beasts!"

Genki draws his card and he says, "We'll see!" Genki sends a card into the spell/trap slot and he says, "I play Card of Demise! This allows me to draw until I'm holding five cards and in five turns, I have to discard my entire hand!" Genki draws two cards and Reginald says, with a cold sly smile, "This duel won't last that long!"

Genki says, with a dark sly grin, "For once, geek, I agree!" Genki sends a card onto his duel disk and he calls out, in a dark serious tone, "Especially, when I summon my Advanced Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle!" A piece of dark red ruby appears on the field and it transforms into Advanced Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle (300/300), a darker and more sinister version of Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle, comes to the field in attack mode. Genki then puts one card on his duel disk and calls out, darkly, "Because, dork, I've gotten seven Advanced Crystal Beasts on the field or in my grave and I can unite them to summon this! The all powerful Rainbow Dark Dragon!"

Reginald yells out, horrified, "Oh no!" Just then the seven Advanced Crystal Beasts, in their dark jewel forms, leap into the air and a huge black and dark brown as well as more sinister version of the Rainbow Dragon, Rainbow Dark Dragon (4000/0), comes to the field in attack mode.

Genki sends an Equip Spell card with a piece of sapphire being crushed into pieces into the spell/trap slot and he says, with a dark sly smile, "Now, I play my Crystal Crush Equip Card and I can only use this on either Rainbow Dragon or Rainbow Dark Dragon! Whenever my Rainbow Dark Dragon attacks now, you take damage equal to your destroyed monster's attack points!"

Reginald says, in a cold snort, "Big deal! I'll still survive!"

Genki says, sending the last card in his hand, "I think being wrong is a thing that you geeks are into right now since I play my Mischief of the Time Goddess to skip your turn! Now, by sending all of my crystals to the graveyard, my dragon gains one thousand points!" Just then, all of the five Advanced Crystal Beast monsters had turned into their crystal forms and were absorbed by Rainbow Dark Dragon and it roars as its stats increase from 4000/0 to 9000/0!

Chazz yells out, shocked, "Nine-thousand attack points!"

Alexis says, in a stunned tone, "And with that Crystal Crush card out, Genki will win!"

Reginald says, in a stunned tone, "No! This can't be! I have the power of destiny on my side!"

Genki yells out, in a dark strong tone, "Rainbow Dark Dragon, destroy his pathetic swordsman with Dark Rainbow Refraction!" Rainbow Dark Dragon fires a flame made of all types of dark colors that slams into Silent Swordsman, destroying it, and Reginald scream out in pain as he is shocked while he loses 6700 life-points, in one shot and loses another 2300 life-points from Genki's spell card, immediately ending the duel.

Final Score:

Reginald: 0

Genki: 6200

With the end of the duel, the final holograms fade away as Reginald collapses to the ground on his back and into unconsciousness.

Kagome calls out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Not again!"

Genki tells the SOL members as his duel disk de-activates, "Now, I'll be leaving now!"

However, a familiar female voice calls out, coldly, "That's what you think, Sakura!" Genki then jumps into the air as a few kunai knives flew below him as he lands at another spot and whips his head to see Tenten with a kunai in her right arm. Just then, a white-clad Hinata Hyuga appears behind Genki, but he barely dodges her.

Genki thinks in his mind, perplexed, "What the?! I didn't even sense her presence! How could that be possible!?"

Kagome says, with a cold plain tone, "Judging by your look of shock, you must be wondering why you couldn't sense our auras. Thanks to my Priestess magic, we could cloak our auras from anyone who has spiritual senses like you. Now, you are coming with us into the Society of Light.

Genki yells out, with his right fist glowing blue spiritual energy, "As if, dork! Shotgun!" Genki fires a barrage of spirit bullets to the ground, which creates a smokescreen which makes the SOL members to cough as Genki, with Reginald's body on his back, uses his super-speed to rush over to the gates. Genki makes his right hand to a gun-like pose as it was lit up with spiritual energy and he yells out, "Spirit Gun!" Genki fires his Spirit Gun at the gate to destroy, but a sickly white blast of spiritual energy was fired, which negated Genki's blast. Genki looks up to see a white-clad Yusuke Urameshi looking down at him from the stands with his right hand in a gun-like pose as well.

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't think so, Sakura! You're coming with us!"

Genki yells out, in a dark nasty tone, "What part of 'As if' didn't you geeks understand!? 'As' or the 'if'!?" Genki places his right index and middle fingers to his forehead to plan to escape with the Instant Transmission, but Yusuke yells out, while aiming his Spirit Gun at Genki, "Like I said, I'm not letting you escape!" Yusuke fires his Spirit Gun at Genki, but he jumps up high to dodge the blast as it hits the ground. Yusuke fires another Spirit Gun at Genki, again, while he's in mid-air, and it hits him in the chest, causing Genki to scream out in pain as he's throwing away with a third degree burn on his chest and hits the floor, breaking a few ribs, while placing Reginald's body on him.

Chazz says, in a cold serious tone, "Give it up, Sakura! You'll never get out of here! Your dorky friends aren't here to save you! It'll be less painful!"

Genki says, weakly, "Never…"

Tenten says, with a cold sly smile, "Master Sartorius shall change your mind, Genki. When we bring you to him so you can finally see the light and the dark power within you can be expelled." As Yusuke, Sakura, and Tenten prepare to capture Genki, who was totally helpless.

"Orichalcos Spirit Gun!"

Just then, a large sphere of black and red demonic energy was fired and before anyone could act, it hit Yusuke on the left shoulder throwing him away to the ground on his side.

Kagome yells out, horrified, "Yusuke!" Everyone then turns to see Kasa in her half-demon form with her right hand in a gun-like pose.

Genki yells out, surprised, "Holly!"

Alexis yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Oh great! It's one of those Orichalcos creeps!"

Yusuke slowly stands up while he holds his shoulder in pain and he thinks in his mind, perplexed, "But how!? I didn't sense her presence!"

Kasa says, in a dark cold nasty tone, "How pathetic! Attacking a weakling when his back is turned!" Genki winches at that harsh comment and Kasa yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "It doesn't matter any since the tables have now turned! Judging by the shock look on the pathetic Ma-zoku's face, you geeks must be wondering why you couldn't sense my aura! We actually used your cowardly tactic of blocking Genki's spiritual awareness with Melody's Demonic Priestess magic! Now anyone of you geeks with a sixth sense can't find us!"

Sakura yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Damn it! They took our idea!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "That's right, Billboard Brow! Here's your prize!" Just then, Eternal Star and his 20 Shadow Clones appear from the stands and pummels Sakura without any remorse.

Yusuke yells out, horrified, "Sakura!" Just then, Kasa appears behind him and gives him a good kick in the back throwing him away to hit the stands, hard.

Tenten yells out, shocked, "Yusuke!" Just then, Ranko appears behind Tenten and she says, with an evil smile, "Okay, bitch, here's your pounding! Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken!" Ranko punches Tenten's back, rapidly, throwing Tenten away and for her to hit the ground, stunning her for a few minutes. Just then, Hinata appears from behind with her Byakugan activated and she yells out, coldly, "I'm going to seal your chakra points and make you see the Light!"

"Pepper Breath!"

Just then, a fireball appears from nowhere hits in front of Hinata making her stop at her tracks and then, Izayoi appears in front of her and rams her fist into Hinata's chest, breaking a rib of her bones, throwing her away from her with her super-strength and Hinata hits the wall with Sakura, who was beaten up by Eternal Star and his Shadow Clones.

Chazz says, in a cold annoyed tone, "Oh great! Those Orichalcos goons went and ruined everything for us!"

Alexis says, in a cold plain tone, "Makes you wonder how they manage to how we were even here! Last I've heard from them is that they were going back to their base after Inuyasha killed that Naraku guy for the second time."

Just then, Kasa's voice booms out, "Hey geeks!" The SOL members looked up to see Kasa floating in mid-air while carrying a beaten up Yusuke by the belt and she says, with an evil sly smile, "Here's your last piece of Society garbage!"

Kagome yells out, horrified, "Yusuke!" Kasa then throws Yusuke away for him to crash to the ground hard and Kagome goes in to his aid.

Kasa looks at Genki and she says, in a dark cold plain tone, "I'd leave if I were you!"

Genki says, with a nod, "Thanks!" With that, Genki takes Reginald's body and disappears from sight using Instant Transmission.

Alexis says, in a cold annoyed tone, "Damn it! He's escaped!"

Kagome thinks in her mind, in a cold annoyed tone, "No! How did they know about this!? It doesn't make sense!"

Kasa says, in a dark cold serious tone, "I think I know why did you try to target Genki in the first and it's not going to work! Even if he was with you, I still wouldn't join your dirty Society, so someone like that backstabbing miko to hurt my brother the way that she did! If it'll come to it, then I'd have to kill him!"

The SOL members gasp at this and Kagome yells out, stunned, "How could you!? Wasn't he your friend!?"

Kasa says, in a dark cold serious tone, "He was, but thanks to the Orichalcos, I won't feel too bad if I were to prepare for Genki's death. So, nice try, miko!"

Eternal Star says, in a dark cold plain tone, "You dorks got another lucky break!" With that, the Orichalcos warriors disappear using their Instant Transmission.

Kagome says, in a cold snarl, "No! We were…so close!"

Chazz says, in a cold angered snarl, "I don't think I'd take with those Orichalcos thugs holding my family's company for too long!"

Alexis says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't know how they even found out about our plan!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't know either, but we'll have to worry about that later and take Yusuke, Tenten, Sakura, and Hinata back to the 'White Dorm' for them to recover!" With that, the SOL members walked over to pick their fighters up to take them back to the 'White Dorm'.

(At Dartz's headquarters; sometime later)

Within Dartz's headquarters, we find Naruto, Ranma, Hotaru, Nodoka, Daisuke, Hiroshi, Izayoi, Light, Tai, Agumon, Jordan, Hikaru, Michael, and Tyler assembled in front of Dartz as Naruto, Ranma, and Izayoi told him about what had happened with the duel against Genki and Reginald Van Howell III.

Dartz says, in a serious tone, "The Advanced Crystal Beast! I never expect that Prince Koenma would use them against us."

Tyler says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Are these Advanced Crystal Beasts are the 'darker' half as the original Crystal Beasts?"

Dartz says, with a nod, "That's right, Mister Hino! Now, it's more than important that we prepare for Yugi Moto's cousins and their allies as well as the 'Dark Signers' and the Society of Light. With Inuyasha in the recovery tank from his fight with Naraku, he'll be even more powerful than over as well as Melody, who went to see if there are any more old enemies from her time in the Feudal Era with Holly helping her."

Jordan says, in a dark cold serious tone, "And don't forget that we still need to get rid of those traitors of Mayumi and Hikaru."

Hikaru says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Don't fret, Jordan! I've got everything under control for them! They'll soon regret ever bullying me and that bitch will learn the result of her betrayal!"

Agumon asks, curiously, "I wonder where Megumi, Allie, and Mayumi went to!"

Tai says, with a dark cold plain tone, "Who knows, Agumon?"

Just then, Mayumi's voice calls out, "We're back!" Everyone turns to see Mayumi, Allie, and Megumi, in her half-demon form, walking into the building with bags of groceries.

Hiroshi asks, curiously, "Hey what's in the bags!!?"

Megumi says, with a dark cold sly smile, "It's something needed for Hikaru's revenge against that purple haired backstabbing bimbo and her pathetic boyfriend!"

Micheal says, surprised, "Whoa! All of these things look expensive!"

Allie says, with a dark cold sly tone and with a wink, "Actually, Mikey, they are and we have that moron, Yamamoto, to thank since we only used his credit cards to buy all these things!"

Mayumi says, with a dark cold sly tone, "But I think that we kind of max them out!"

Megumi says, with a dark cold smile, "Of course, with my transformation jutsu and the fake ID that Allie made to match for that bozo's credit credits, it was very easy!"

Tai says, with an evil sly smile, "Oh man! I'd love to see the look on that messed up little punk's face right now!"

Hotaru says, with an evil smile, "No kidding, Tai!"

Hikaru asks, curiously, "So, what do you have planned?"

Mayumi says, with an evil sly smile, "From my observations, they are not as well liked as it may seem. Many people just don't want to deal with them. I want to completely break them. We're going to start slow then slowly make more progressive confrontations. First, we're going to attack psychologically then physically. We'll change your looks, attire, accessories, and make them jealous of you as we slowly make them complete fools and humiliate them completely. Of course during this time we will be playing numerous pranks that will make them the laughing stock."

Daisuke says, with an evil smile, "Hey, I like that idea!"

Ranma says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Yeah, no kidding! I'd love to see the look on that moron's face!"

Megumi says, with an evil sly smile while looking at Naruto, "Of course, we need the 'Emperor of Pranks' himself."

Naruto says, with an evil sinister smile, "It's been a good while since I've played pranks on people! Sure, I'll do it!"

Mayumi asks Hikaru, with an evil sly smile, "What do you say, Hikaru?"

Hikaru says, with an evil sly smile, "Sure, why not!? It's too perfect! The perfect revenge!" Hikaru looks at Dartz and he asks, curiously, "Sir, is that okay with you!"

Dartz says, with an evil smile, "Normally, I'd disapprove of such immature tactics, but since you've done a great job, Mister Sato, I don't see why not."

Mayumi says, with a dark cold smile, "Great!"

Dartz says, with a plain tone, "However, I do bid warning to all of you to be wary of Keiko Yukimura and the other 'Signers'. Since they are also 'Chosen Duelists', they are far stronger than the other 'Chosen Duelists' ."

Ranma says, with a dark cold smile, "Don't worry, Master Dartz! Those dorks won't stand a chance against us and besides after we are done dealing with that 'dark side' of Yukimura, we will get rid of her…both 'sides' of her!"

Dartz says, with an evil smile, "That's good to hear, Mister Saotome. However, I do keep an eye on BOTH Yukimura siblings, my friend. Both of them seem to have a deeper darkness and it is a darkness that neither of them is aware of." Dartz says, with a serious tone, "Also, with the arrival of the Crimson Dragon, I sense the arrival of the 'Dark Signers' and you need to be wary of them. Like the Orichalcos, the Earthbound Immortals were born of the darkness itself. Their very name gave me a clue to their strength and the Seal of Orichalcos might be taken advantage of."

Hotaru asks, perplexed, "How can that happen?"

Dartz says, with a plain tone, "I would need to see the Earthbound Immortals in action, but I think that they may draw their strength when a Field Spell card is out and since the Seal of Orichalcos is a Field Spell card that can't be destroyed, the Immortal's strength would be ever lasting. I don't think that won't be anything wrong if we face them, but if you fight against a 'Dark Signer', defeat them quickly before their Earthbound Immortal is brought out to the field."

Megumi yells out, with a dark cold sly tone, "Don't worry, Master Dartz! Those 'Dark Signers' won't be much of a challenge!"

Just then a dark voice calls out, with a dark cold sly tone, "Is that what you think?!"

Dartz and the Orichalcos warriors gasp in shock and Light yells out, strongly, "Who is there?!"

The dark voice booms out, "So, you can put us in your book, but then again, the instant that you try, you will be sent into the Netherworld! Let me show you!" Just then a bolt of dark lightning slams into Light's 'Orichalcos Note' and writes a name inside, but before Light can get a good look at it, a spider insignia similar to the spider on the Nazca Lines appear in the book and Light cries out in pain as he is zapped by pitch black lightning causing him to collapse onto the field.

Tai calls out, shocked, "Light!"

The dark voice tells the Orichalcos, with a dark cold sly tone, "Like the 'Signers', if our names goes into the book, you will get the shock of your life at best and be sent into the Netherworld at worst! I actually weakened the energy of my Immortal's 'counter'!"

Daisuke asks, curiously, "Are you a 'Dark Signer'?"

The dark voice replies, "That's right, little boy! And we have powers that are ancient and come from the very core of darkness, so, this 'dark power' that you have doesn't give you an edge to us like the 'Signers'! And that's what we are here to warn you! If you dare try to take away our prey, you will spend all time in the Netherworld and it is far worse than in the belly of Dartz's 'Great Leviathan'! The 'Signers' belong to us and when we are done with them, we shall destroy this world and return it to darkness as it should be! Farewell and remember my warning!" Just then the dark voice starts to laugh as it slowly fades away.

Ranma yells out, with a dark cold angered tone, "Get back and face me coward!"

Izayoi uses her abilities to heal Light and Tai says, looking at his Orichalcos Note, "Light's book isn't too damaged, but the name that was put in there was burned away."

Hotaru says, with a dark cold serious tone, "That was a warning that like the 'Signers', we can't put their names into Light's book and if we try, we will suffer far worse than if we did this with the 'Signers'!"

Ranma yells out, with a dark cold angered tone, "Doesn't matter! I'll take them on in a duel and seal their wretched souls away for good! When I get my hands on them, they will wish that they never came out of the hole that they came out of!"

(Somewhere on Academy Island; A brief time afterwards)

Within a mysterious 'dark room' somewhere on Academy Island, we find three cloaked 'Dark Signers', the red and black, blue and black, and yellow and black one, assembled together in the same room.

The yellow and black one tells the red cloaked one, with a dark cold plain tone, "Those fools think that alien rock will help them? Our Immortals will eat that pathetic lizard for breakfast, Roman."

The red and black 'Dark Signer' replies, with a dark sly tone, "They are nothing to worry about, Devack. Right now, we need to focus on our real targets: The 'Signers'. I sense their strength growing and it is time to reveal ourselves."

The blue and black 'Dark Signer' asks, with a dark sly tone, "Are you going to use our drone against them, Roman."

Roman says, with a dark cold sly tone, "Why not, Kalin? I think that the 'Signers' might already know that we are here, but I think that we should test them."

Devack says, with a dark cold plain tone, "They are hanging around the Slifer Red and Ra Yellow dorms that they are keeping out of the control of that 'Society of Light'."

Roman says, with a nod, "And like all light, positive or negative, it will fall to darkness, Devack."

(Sometime later; returning to our heroes and heroines)

Back with our heroes and heroines, we find them assembled in front of the Ra Yellow dorm and discussing about their future plans.

Kakashi says, with a plain tone, "With this situation with Inuyasha arising, we are going to need to train harder than ever.

Jiraiya thinks in his mind, with a plain and serious tone, "It might be time to being training Davis and Jaden with more 'advanced' training especially bringing into the Toad Summons Home to bring them to Lord Fukasaku for this training. It could be the edge that they need and I might take TK after I'm done with Davis and Jaden."

Ino asks, curiously, "What about these 'Dark Signers'?"

Yeshua says, with a plain tone, "Since they are here, we had better take measures since they have the ability to brainwash others as well to do their bidding."

Joey says, annoyed, "Great, folks! More brainwashing maniacs."

Yugi says, with a serious tone, "Something tells me that they are worse than the enemies that we faced in the past, Joey."

TK says, with a serious tone, "And it will be up to Davis, Jaden, Keiko, and myself to hold the line against the 'Dark Signers'."

Davis says, with a plain tone, "We are like the frontline troops."

Tsunade says, with a serious tone, "However, we are not sure of the abilities of the 'Dark Signers' outside of dueling, you need to keep yourself strong and alert."

Kurama says, with a nod, "I agree especially since we have company."

Everyone gasps in shock and Yeshua says, with a plain tone, "You can come out and your mystical block on us doesn't work on people like Hiei, Kurama, and myself." Soon after, a black cloaked male wearing a pitch black version of the Dark Signers' cloak with a black Academy Duel Disk attached his left wrist comes out into the open.

Tea asks, perplexed, "Who is that weirdo?"

The black cloaked figure replies, with a dark cold sly tone with a voice that sounds like two voices in one, "Do you wish to know about the 'Dark Signers'? Follow me and you will know soon enough!" Afterwards, he runs away and Davis, Kira, and Hikari prepare to follow him through they are cautious by keeping their distance.

Kira yells out, annoyed, "Get back here!"

Keiko says, seriously, "Wait up everyone!" Soon enough, the rest of our heroes and heroines follow, but Erin, Melissa, Rika, Takara, and Nyoko give each other serious glares.

Melissa thinks in her mind, "The girls and I are thinking the same thing. The 'Dark Signers' have just made their first move!"

Erin thinks in her mind, plainly, "The 'Dark Signers' have sent their first soldiers and most likely, this is the 'Signers' first test. I hope that they can succeed and pass this 'test'."

Hiei thinks in his mind, plainly, "So, the 'Dark Signers' have made the first move. It shall be interesting to see what a battle between 'Signer' and 'Dark Signer'." Soon enough, as our heroes and heroines continue to follow the cloaked figure, plenty of them get ominous feeling.

(A good time afterwards; In front of the 'White Dorm')

Soon enough, our heroes and heroines are around the front of the 'White Dorm' as the cloaked figure stops there in front of our heroes and heroines.

Kuwabara asks, darkly and plainly, "What's he doing around this 'dork hut'?"

Karin says, with a plain tone, "Something tells me that we are going to find out, Kuwabara."

The cloaked figure says, with a dark cold sly tone, "My lords just wanted a bigger audience for a display of their power!"

Keiko says, with a plain tone, "Who do you work for?" Keiko then goes out some steps from the others in which the cloaked figure gives a hidden sinister smile.

Davis tells Keiko, with a plain tone, "Watch out, Keiko. Something isn't right."

The cloaked figure yells out, with a dark cold excited tone, "Too late, Signer!" Just then dark blue flames burst out of the ground surrounding Keiko and the cloaked figure.

Kira yells out, horrified, "Keiko!" Kira runs to the barrier and she cries out in pain as she is thrown back with deadly burns from the flames.

Yukina says, going over to Kira, "Kira, are you okay? You are burned!"

Kira says, winching, "Those flames… aren't normal, everyone!"

The cloaked figure says, with a dark cold sly tone, "These are the flames of the Netherworld and this 'Signer' is trapped with me for our Shadow Duel!"

Keiko asks, stunned, "What?!" Just then Davis', TK's, Jaden's, and Keiko's 'Mark of the Dragon' glow on their wrist and start to hurt.

Jaden asks, perplexed, "What's going on, dudes?"

TK says, winching in pain, "My arm! It really hurts! Like my 'Mark of the Dragon' is burning into me and telling me something!"

The cloaked figure says, displaying a violet spider mark on his right arm that's glowing in the same violet color, "That's right, Signer!"

Shikamaru asks, curiously, "What is that on his arm?"

Izzy says, shocked, "That's the Spider from the Nazca Lines!"

The cloaked figure says, with a dark cold sly tone, "That's right, fool! This is a gift from my master, one of the mighty 'Dark Signers'!"

Keiko asks, seriously, "You are an agent of the 'Dark Signers'?!"

The cloaked figure says, with a nod, "Correct, Signer Keiko Yukimura! We know who you are and the first battle of the war between the 'Signers' and 'Dark Signers' has begun! I am a 'Shadow Drone', a warrior of the 'Dark Signers', and I shall take you to the Netherworld!"

Hikari tells Keiko, with a serious tone, "Keiko, you can't duel him! Remember, this is a duel of life and death!"

Keiko says, displaying her 5ds duel disk attached to her left arm and putting her deck inside, "And if I don't, I'm dead anyway! I've got to fight or I'm a goner!" The two duelists activate their duel disk, Keiko's duel disk shuffles her deck, their life-point counters display 8000 life-points for each duelist, and both duelist draw five cards from their decks.

Keiko and the 'Shadow Drone' yell out in unison, "Game on!"

Starting Scores:

Shadow Drone: 8000

Keiko: 8000

Shadow Drone says, drawing a card, "No pleasantries from me, Signer! I'll take the first turn!" Shadow Drone says, putting a card on his duel disk, "I play my Blizzard Lizard in defense mode!" Just then a blue, ice-blue, and gray fur covered lizard with yellow eyes comes to the field in defense mode. Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "I think that will end my turn!"

Keiko says, drawing a card, "My move, pal!" Keiko says, putting one card on her duel disk, "I play Twilight Rose Knight in attack mode!" Just then Twilight Rose Knight (1000/1000) appears on the field in attack mode. Keiko says, putting another card on her duel disk, "And thanks to my knight, I can play another monster, a Plant-type that's level four or less, from my hand and to the field! I choose my Guard Hedge!" Just then Hedge Guard (0/2100), a mass of brown vines, appears on the field in defense mode. Keiko says, seriously, "Then I tune my Twilight Rose Knight with my Hedge Guard in order to Synchro Summon my Splendid Rose in attack mode!" Just then Twilight Rose Knight turns into three rings that surround Hedge Guard making it become transparent. When a column of light appears on the field, Splendid Rose (2200/2000), a humanoid monster with blond hair, a black and green jump suit, thorn vines coming out of his arms and wrists, and one half of a rose on the right side of his right leg with the other half on the left side of his left leg, comes to the field in attack mode.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold smirk, "Impressive, Signer."

Keiko says, with a serious tone, "Splendid Rose, show this guy how impressive that you are and destroy his lizard!"

When her monster unleashes vines on Blizzard Lizard, Shadow Drone yells out with a dark cold sly tone, "Not so fast, Signer!" Just then Blizzard Lizard's tail spins around and when Keiko's attack hits, a huge quake shakes the immediate area while Keiko yelps as she loses 300 life-points. Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold smirk, "When my Lizard is destroyed in battle, you lose third hundred life-points." When everyone recovers from the quake, they are shocked to see a good sized hole in-between Keiko and the Shadow Drone!

Ino yells out, shocked, "Whoa, everyone! Look at that hole!"

Lee asks, perplexed, "Did Keiko's powers do that?"

Neji says, with a plain tone, "They are suppressed Lee. Even though they are active, I doubt they can do that and she couldn't do THAT much damage when her Psychic Abilities were at full strength."

Keiko thinks in her mind, shocked, "No way my psychic abilities were THAT powerful! They were lethal, but they couldn't do THAT much damage for just one attack! This is the strength of a 'Dark Signer Shadow Duel' and something tells me that it will only get deadlier!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "The strength of the shadow is far superior to your pathetic abilities! And once you are in the Netherworld, even your 'Mark of the Dragon' will be made pitch black!"

Keiko says, removing Hedge Guard (0/2100) monster card from her graveyard, "We'll see about that, pal! By removing one Plant monster from my graveyard, I can cut my Rose's strength in half and have him attack again!" Splendid Rose's stats lower from 2200/2000 to 1100/2000 and Splendid Rose unleashes its vines on the Shadow Drone in which he is hit hard causing another quake while his life-points lower by 1100 points. Keiko says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, "I place two cards face-down and end my turn!"

Current Score

Shadow Drone: 6900

Keiko: 7700

Shadow Drone says, drawing a card, "Well done, Signer Yukimura! However, your time is up!" Shadow Drone says, putting a card into his spell/trap slot, "I play Monster Reborn! This card allows me to revive my Blizzard Lizard!" Just then Blizzard Lizard (600/1800) to the field in attack mode. Shadow Drone says, displaying a spell card with a picture of a pool with ice surrounding it with a creature made of water in the center, "Then I play my Ice Mirror spell card! I select one level three Water monster on my field and I can play another with the same name from my deck!" Just then a card comes from his deck, he puts on his duel disk, and another Blizzard Lizard (600/1800) appears on the field in attack mode. Shadow Drone says, putting another card into the spell/trap slots, "And then I play a second Ice Mirror to bring out a third Blizzard Lizard!" A card comes out of the Shadow Drone's deck and he puts it on his duel disk causing a third Blizzard Lizard (600/1800) to appear on the field in attack mode.

Ryoko says, annoyed, "Can't you do anything original?! This is getting old!"

Shadow Drone says, putting one card on his duel disk, "How about I release two of my lizards to play my Dark Tuner Catastrophe in attack mode!"

Davis asks, perplexed, "Dark Tuner?!" Just then the two Blizzard Lizards vanish in order for Dark Tuner Catastrophe (0/0), black demonic creature with one red eye, appears on the field in attack mode.

Keiko asks, perplexed, "What kind of creature is that?!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "Your end since I Dark Tune my Catastrophe with my final Blizzard Lizard!" Just then Catastrophe turns into eight stars that surround Blizzard Lizard in which they enter its body making it become transparent with three stars that collide with each other and vanishes in which five black stars comes out its back as it vanishes!

Jaden says, stunned, "The stars have become pitch black!"

Shadow Drone then yells out, as he puts a black sided monster card on his duel disk, "When the shadows are devoured by even darker shadows, the certain pulls back to reveal a world without light! Meet the might of my Dark Synchro Monster Frozen Fitzgerald!" Just then a column of darkness appears on the field and out of that column, Frozen Fitzgerald (2500/2500), a huge fiend-like monster with white head, red eyes, grey chest, and large icicles making up the rest of him, comes to the field in attack mode.

Zane asks, curiously, "Dark Synchro monster?"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly smile, "That's right, everyone! Unlike yours and the 'Signers' monsters who power each other up, my monsters feed off each other to create negative energy!"

Izzy yells out, amazed, "Negative energy?!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold smile, "My Dark Tuner monster level, which was level eight, is subtracted from my non-Tuner, which was level three, and my Dark Synchro is a negative level five!"

Keiko calls out, amazed, "Negative level monsters?!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold smirk, "And you will see their strength, but my Dark Tuner has a powerful ability because when he is used for a Dark Synchro, I can automatically destroy one monster on my opponent's field!" Just then the image of Catastrophe appears on the field and creates an orb of energy that destroys Keiko's Splendid Rose! Shadow Drone calls out, with a dark cold strong tone, "Attack that Signer Fitzgerald!" Fitzgerald unleashes icicles right at Keiko, who has no monsters on her field to protect her.

Keiko yells out, pushing a button on her duel disk, "I play my trap card!" But Keiko's face-down card that's trying to rise up sparks as it is stopped.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "When my Fitzgerald attacks, you can't play any spells or trap cards!" Keiko gasps in shock, but she cries out in pain and agony as the icicles rip into her body and uniform while she loses 2500 life-points.

Our heroes and heroines gasp in horror when they see Keiko and Hikari yells out, horrified, "Keiko!"

Kira says, shocked, "She is badly injured!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "Don't expect your hanyou abilities to help you! They are useless against Shadow Magic of our kind and it is far more powerful and dangerous than those pathetic Millennium Items that you use!"

Keiko groans out in pain and she thinks, "Yeshua was right about all of this with the 'Dark Signers'! This is a fight for my life, not just a duel! If I lose this duel, I lose my life!"

Supreme Princess says in Keiko's mind, "No duh, Keiko! So, why don't you let someone else do this for you if you are not up to it?!"

Keiko yells out, mentally, "Why don't you really clam it, 'your majesty'?! I will do this on my own and I don't need you talking in my head, so, shut it!"

Supreme Princess says, with a dark cold snort, "Fine by me! It's time to see what you got, Yukimura! Later!"

Shadow Drone says, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, "I think that a face-down will suffice for now!" Soon after, SOL members start to pile out of the 'White Dorm' along with Yusuke, Kagome, and our heroes and heroines 'former' friends, allies, and/or loved ones."

Ray asks, perplexed, "What is this?"

Sakura asks, amazed, "Keiko is dueling some freak in a cloak, but what's with the ring of dark blue flames?!"

Sartorius says, with a plain tone, "This is a 'Shadow Duel', but not like the ones that the nonbelievers are using. This is the one used by the 'Dark Signers'."

There are gasps from the SOL members and Alexis asks, with a cold serious tone, "You mean the 'Dark Signers' that are after Jaden and his sister?"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "If it isn't the infamous Sartorius?! Aren't you the smart one?! That's right! This is the first battle between the 'Signers and 'Dark Signers', but I am just a 'Shadow Drone'!"

Yusuke asks, perplexed, "Shadow Drone?"

Sartorius says, with a plain tone, "A servant of the 'Dark Signers', Mister Urameshi."

Shadow Drone says, pointing to Keiko, "And this 'Signer' is about to go into the Netherworld!"

Keiko says, with a serious tone, "I don't think so, pal!"

Current Score:

Shadow Drone: 6900

Keiko: 5200

Keiko says, drawing a card, "It's my move now!" Keiko says, pushing a button on her duel disk, "I play my trap card: Photosythesis Rebirth!" Keiko's face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of a Queen of Thorns Synchro Monster giving strength into another monster and she says, with a plain tone, "By removing one Plant-type Synchro monster, I can play another from my Extra deck! So, I remove my Rose from play!" Just then named Synchro Monster card comes out of Keiko's graveyard and she puts it away in her deck holder in which she puts another Synchro monster card n her duel disk. Keiko says, with a serious tone, "I choose my Queen of Thorns in attack mode!" Just then Queen of Thorns (2200/1800), with a female humanoid monster with plant-type clothing as well as her left hand having an open plant-like mouth, comes to the field in attack mode.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "Your monster is too weak compared to mine, Signer!"

Keiko says, pushing another button on her duel disk, "I play my Plant Food Chain trap card!" Just then Keiko's other face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of a plant monster about to be eaten by another and Keiko says, with a serious tone, "This card becomes equipped to my Queen of Thorns and she gains five hundred attack points!" Just then Queen of Thorn's stats rise from 2200/1800 to 2700/1800!

Hikari says, with a smile, "Way to go, Keiko!"

Keiko says, with a serious tone, "Now, Thorn Queen, crush his monster!" Keiko's new monster unleashes powerful thorns that destroy Fitzgerald in which the Shadow Drone yelps as 200 life-points.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold smirk, "Nice try, but since I have no monsters on the field when you destroyed my monster, he comes back in defense mode!" Just then Frozen Fitzgerald (2500/2500) returns to the field in defense mode. Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "And at the end of the Battle Phase, he automatically destroys your monsters!"

Keiko yells out, stunned, "What?!" Just then Fitzgerald encases Queen of Thorns in encase which shatters destroying the monster. Keiko says, with a serious tone, "Thanks to my trap card, when it is destroyed, I can play a Plant monster from my graveyard!"

Shadow Drone says, with a smirk, "Too bad that you don't have any since you removed the only sent to the grave from it!" Shadow Drone says, pushing a button on his duel disk, "And there is more bad news when I play my Frozen Spirit trap card!" Just then Shadow Drone's face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of a frozen monster giving off some kind of energy. Shadow Drone says, with a dark sly tone, "When a Water monster destroys one of your monsters through a special ability, this trap card takes out that destroyed monster's attack points from your life-points!" Keiko groans out as a dark cold aura surrounds her causing her lips to turn blue as she loses 2200 life-points.

Keiko says, shivering, "That's c-cold, wise guy!" Keiko says, putting one card on her duel disk, "I play Fox Fire in defense mode!" Just then Fox Fire (300/200) comes to the field in defense mode. Keiko says, putting two more cards into the spell/trap slots, "And I-I end with two cards face-down!"

Current Score:

Shadow Drone: 6700

Keiko: 3500

Shadow Drone says, while drawing a card, "A monster that can revive itself after being destroyed! Is that your best shot?! It had better not be or you will be frozen in the Netherworld forever! First, I switch my Fitzgerald back into attack mode!" Fitzgerald then switches from defense mode to attack mode and Shadow Drone says, displaying an equip spell card with a picture of monster draining energy away, "And I equip my monster with the Drain Strike equip spell card!" When Shadow Drone puts the card into the spell/trap slots, he says, with a dark cold sinister tone, "When my monster attacks, it takes half of the different between his attack monsters and your defending monsters defense points from your life and gives that life back to me!"

Davis says, plainly, "That's really not good, folks!"

Shadow Drone yells out, with dark cold serious tone, "Attack and crush that Signer's pathetic monster!" Fitzgerald attacks again, raining ice shards onto Fox Fire, and destroying him in which those shards goes onto Keiko in which she yelps in pain as she is hit causing her to get cut and injured even more as she loses 1150 life-points while Shadow Drone glows violet as he gains 1150 life-points.

Hikari, Kira, Kuwabara, and Yusuke call out, shocked, "Keiko!"

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "I think that's enough for now!" Just then Fox Fire (300/200) returns to Keiko's field in defense mode.

Current Score:

Keiko: 2350

Shadow Drone: 7850

Keiko says, weakly drawing a card, "It's my turn, pal!" Keiko says, putting one card into the spell/trap slots, "I play my Pot of Greed and draw two more cards!" Keiko then draws two more cards and she smiles when she sees them. Keiko says, putting one card on her duel disk, "I summon my Nitro Synchron Tuner monster!" Just then Nitro Synchron (300/100) appears on the field in attack mode. Keiko says, putting another card into the spell/trap slots, "Then I add my Dimension Fusion spell card! By paying two grand in life-points, you and I can play monsters that we removed from play, but since I'm the only one! I'm getting my Hedge Guard back!" Just then Hedge Guard (0/2100) returns to the field in attack mode while Keiko's life-points drop by 2000 points. Keiko calls out, strongly, "I tune my Nitro Synchron, Fox Fire, and Hedge Guard together in order to Synchro Summon my Nitro Warrior!" Just then Nitro Synchron turns into two stars that turn into two rings that surround Fox Fire and Hedge Guard, turning them transparent, and when a column of light appears on the field, Keiko puts a Synchro Monster card on her duel disk causing Nitro Warrior (2800/1800) to appear on the field in attack mode.

Syrus says, nervously, "That's a good monster, but Keiko only has just over three hundred life-points left!"

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, "But her Nitro Synchron can give another card since it was used to Synchro Summon Nitro Warrior."

Keiko says, drawing a card, "I get one more draw, creep!" Keiko says, smiling while playing the card, "Then I equipped my Warrior with Junk Barrage!" When Nitro Warrior's arms glow and Keiko says, with a smile, "Since I played a spell card, my Nitro Warrior gains one grand in attack points!" Nitro Warrior roars as its stats rise from 2800/1800 to 3800/1800 and Keiko yells out, strongly, "Attack with Dynamite Crunch!" Nitro Warrior smashes into Fitzgerald causing Shadow Drone to yelp out as he loses 1300 life-points. Keiko says, with a sly tone, "And now, you lose half of your monster's attack power thanks to my Junk Barrage!" Just then Nitro Warrior unleashes a barrage of green energy spheres that rip into Shadow Drone causing him to yelp in pain as he loses 1250 life-points.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sly tone, "However, my monster revives itself and soon, you will be done!" Just then Frozen Fitzgerald (2500/2500) returns to the field in defense mode.

Keiko says, with a smirk, "I don't think so, pal! Since my Warrior destroyed your monster in battle and you got a defense position one, my Warrior switches it into attack mode and attacks it again!" Shadow Drone gasps in shock as his monster switches back into attack while Nitro Warrior goes back down to its original 2800/1800 while its attack the monster attack causing Shadow Drone to yelp as he loses 300 life-points. Keiko calls out, strongly, "And you take my Junk Barrage's effect again!" Just then more green energy spheres hit Shadow Drone and he yelps out in pain as they rip into while losing 1250 more life-points.

Shadow Drone says, with a dark cold sneer, "You might have gotten me that time, but my Warrior revives, again, and this duel is done!" Just then Frozen Fitzgerald (2500/2500) returns to the field in defense mode.

Keiko says, with a sly tone while pushing two buttons on her duel disk, "It is over for you, pal! I play my trap cards: Final Attack Orders and Roaring Flame!" Just then Keiko's face-down cards are revealing to be the Final Attack Orders trap card and another continuous trap card with Flame Swordsman fighting multiple enemies. Keiko says, with a serious tone, "My Final Attack Orders makes your monsters stand in attack mode and with my Roaring Flame trap card, as long as I have a Fire monster on my field and when he destroys a monster on your field, this trap card allows him to keep attacking as long as you have monsters, but I can't attack you directly for the turn that I use this effect!"

Shadow Drone gasps in horror and Kira yells out, excitedly, "And since his monster keeps reviving itself, Nitro Warrior will keep doing damage until his life-points are done!"

Keiko calls out, strongly, "Nitro Warrior, keep up the attacks and end this duel!" After Fitzgerald switches to attack mode, Nitro Warrior attacks Fitzgerald, again, in which Shadow Drone suffers 300 points of battle damage in which are followed by 1250 life-points of damage by Junk Barrage in which when Fitzgerald revives himself, but he is switched to attack mode and the cycle continues on until the Shadow Drone's life-points hits zero, ending the duel.

Final Score:

Keiko: 350

Shadow Drone: 0

With the end of the duel, the circle of flames vanishes along with the holograms while the Shadow Drone collapses onto the ground in which Keiko collapses onto her right knee.

Keiko thinks in her hazily, "I did it…I did all on my own…" However, the injuries from her duel as well as the blast of intense cold that made her lips turn blue causes her to collapse, but Kakashi manages to scoop her up into his arms.

Yusuke thinks in his mind, in a cold serious tone, "I've got to get her now!" However, a blast of spirit energy stops the SOL members in their tracks and they look to see Hikari, Kira, Mina, Kino, and plenty of the other super-powered members of our heroes and heroines form a defensive line while Kurama puts the unconscious Shadow Drone onto his back.

Kagome says, with a cold serious tone, "Keiko needs a doctor!"

Mina says, with a dark serious tone, "She is going to get one, but you are not going to lay one finger on her, dweeb!"

Ino says, with a dark sneer, "So, keep away from her or you are dead!"

Sakura says, with a cold serious tone, "Are you brain-dead, Ino pig?! Keiko needs help!"

Hikari says, with a dark sneer, "Your kind of help?! I don't think so, dork! My best friend is staying with us where she belongs and if you try anything, you are going to wish that you weren't born!" Soon enough, our heroes and heroines start a slow retreat from the 'White Dorm', Hikari gives a hatred glare at Sartorius.

As they continue to get to the safety of the Ra Yellow dorm, Supreme Princess thinks within Keiko, "Guess why 'weak Hikari' isn't as weak as I thought, but I will be rid of her soon enough through I might want to think careful about when I make my move!"

Kagome tells Sartorius, "Master Sartorius, you were right about the 'Dark Signers'! Keiko was nearly done in by that 'Shadow Drone' of theirs!"

Sartorius tells Kagome, with a plain tone, "And that was only a 'Shadow Drone', Miss Higurashi. The 'real deal' as you would say is far more deadly. That's why we need Miss Yukimura with us as soon as possible."

Yusuke says, with a cold serious tone, "Don't worry, Master Sartorius! I won't let those jerks take her away as that rotten twerp, Reginald and his cousin tried to do!"

Sartorius says, with a plain tone, "That's good to hear, but you must be wary. Remember, the 'Supreme Princess' and her minions won't let you to get so easily, Mister Urameshi."

Yusuke says, with a cold snarl, "They won't stop me, sir! No one will!" Yusuke thinks in her mind, with a cold serious tone, "I may have fallen prey to the darkness' dirty tricks, but I won't let those two assholes with their body-snatching queen take Keiko away! I bring her into the Light no matter what it takes!"

(Back with the 'Dark Signers'; On the meanwhile)

With the three 'Dark Signers', we find them watching our heroes and heroines on some kind of viewing globe as Roman, who has the spider mark with missing a few limbs, regain one of those limbs in which he winches in slight pain.

Roman says, with a dark cold sly tone, "She is stronger than I expected."

Devack says, with a dark cold plain tone, "She is the 'Signer' of Black Rose Dragon."

Kalin says, with a dark cold insane smile, "I'm not surprised that she was betrayed by Yusuke like I was! The piece of dirt is always using and betraying people! I do feel bad for the girl, but too bad for her, she had to be a 'Signer'!"

Roman says, with a dark cold plain tone, "Anyway, we need to wait for the other members of our group to arrival. However, we should keep testing the 'Signers'."

Devack asks, curiously, "Who is next, Roman?"

Roman says, with a dark cold sly tone, "These two: The ones that bare Red Dragon Archfiend and Ancient Fairy Dragon." Soon after, images of TK and Davis appear on the sphere.

Devack says, with a dark cold sinister grin, "That's good, Roman. Zeman and I want to get revenge on Ancient Fairy Dragon's 'Signer' for releasing her from the seal."

Roman says, with a dark cold sly tone, "That's a good attitude, my friend. But remember, we are not ready to face the 'Signers' directly until all of us are assembled and the war can truly 'take flight'."

(A bit later that day; at the beach)

At Duel Academy's beach, we find a small rowboat land on the beach and we see two familiar young male figures. One of the males was 24 years of age with turquoise hair is arranged in a "Beetle Haircut" fashion, blue eyes cover with large round yellow glasses with the middle metal shaped like a beetle. He was the same height as Yugi Moto and a green shirt with bug pictures on them, green shorts that, white socks, and black and brown sneakers with bug 'motif' on them. He also had an Academy style Duel Disk attached to his left wrist.

The other young man was 25 years of age somewhat taller than Yugi Moto with brown hair with dyed purple strands next to his forehead with a red beanie cap on his head, brown eyes, and wearing a black dinosaur theme shirt underneath a red jacket and black pants with brown sneakers. He also had an Academy style Duel Disk attached to his left wrist.

The brown haired young man says, in a plain tone, "This must be Duel Academy that Kaiba, himself, made!"

The turquoise haired young man says, in a serious tone, "That's right, Rex!" The turquoise haired young man says, with a sly smile, "And we heard that Yugi Moto and his friends, including Joey Wheeler would be here for the GX Tournament. We also heard that those cousin brats of Yugi's, Yusuke and Hikari Urameshi, and Kagome Higurashi, along with their little friends Keiko Yukimura, and Zane and Syrus Truesdale would be here."

Rex says, with a sly smile, "That's right! Today's the day that I finally beat down that lucky punk once and for all, Weevil!"

Weevil says, with a sly grin, "Yes, we've modified our decks and this time we'll get our revenge once and for all!" Soon after, Rex and Weevil walked away from the island looking for Yugi and his friends while a few male SOL members were watching this from a far.

One of the male SOL members says, in a cold serious tone, "Master Sartorius would love to hear this." With that the SOL members left the beach to the direction of the 'White Dorm'.

~Next time~

Joey: No way! Not you two jokers again!

Rex: That's right, Joey, and this time you're not going to get lucky! My dinos will have you for lunch!

Weevil: That's right! As you can see, you're not going to be so fortunate since we've gained any rare card we can find to power up our decks.

Joey: Bring them on! Yuge and I kicked your butt ten years ago and we'll do it again!

Next time: Settling old scores!

Amaya: Whoa, is that…Hikaru!

Author's Note: Hey I've got two questions to ask you all!

If you happen to be a guy, who happens to be a total geek, who was in love with this girl, who happens to be your best and only friend that's a girl, who also happens to betray you for popularity and a boyfriend, who would never amount to anything and who happens to be the one, who is always picking on you, what kind of pranks would you do to that so-called friend and her group to get even?

If you happen to be a girl, who happens to be a loner, who happen to have a male friend, but not a boyfriend, who happens to be your only friend, who is popular. This male friend and you go on a date and it ends with a kiss, which gets you to fall in love with this boy. However, this boy spreads rumors that the date ended with something more than just a kiss, if you know what I mean, which completely devastates and humiliates you to where you didn't want anything to do with him anymore. What would you do to get even with him?
