Chapter 116: Enter Eternal Leo; Ryoga's Ascension

(On the beach of Academy Island; the early evening after Koga's defeat at the hands of the Orichalcos controlled Taigoku)

On the beach of Academy Island, we find a speeding boat coming onto shore and two figures jumps off of it.

First of the figures appears to be a young male that was 18 to 19 years old with light blue hair in a similar style as Marcus Damon from Digimon Data Squad with piercing cheery red eyes with a body built like a street fighter. He was wearing a white shirt underneath a blue jacket, blue jeans, black fighting gloves covering his hands, and black sneakers.

The second figure appears to be a 15-year-old girl with light blue hair that goes mid-waist behind her back, light brown eyes, emerald earrings, she has a yellow sleeveless shirt under a red jacket, black fingerless gloves with ruby red fingernails, brown shorts that goes half-way down her upper legs, white shocks, and red sneakers.

The teenage girl yells out, excitedly, "I can't believe that we're here at Duel Academy!"

The young man tells the teenage girl, in a serious tone, "We're not here on a vacation, Rita!"

The teenage girl, Rita, says, in a plain tone, "I know, Masaru! We're here to help our sister from that Dartz creep!"

The young man, Masaru, says, in a serious tone, "That's right! I've heard from people at my college that the only person that could help us is the legendary King of Games, Yugi Moto, since there are stories about him defeating that Marik creep in the Battle City tournament. Maybe, he can save our sister!"

Rita says, in a worried tone, "I hope that you're right."

(In Duel Academy's infirmary; sometime later)

Inside of Duel Academy's infirmary, we find our heroes and heroines, except for Zera, Kenochi, Miroku, Sango, and Shippo, assembled around Kagome, Koga, Ginta, and Hakkaku, who, with the exception of Koga, are sitting up on the four beds that they were provided when they were sent into the infirmary with Ms. Fontaine, with Cologne and Tsunade's help, examining them. Even through Tsunade has totally healed them, they needed to make sure that they are okay. They are just fine physically, but they are not 'fine' emotionally and mentally with Koga didn't show any signs of waking up even with the healing power that Tsunade had to bring people from Tsukuyomi didn't help or the Tucker twins' power either.

Tsunade says, in a serious tone, "This isn't good! Koga isn't waking up at all!"

Ayame says, horrified, "What!"

Mina says, in a solemn tone, "It's true! Whatever kind of jutsu that Inuyasha used on him is impossible for us to break it!"

Yeshua says, in a serious tone, "I guess that the Infernal Tsukuyomi is taking its effect and with Koga's will, he has about six weeks at best to live!"

Ginta asks, concerned, "Isn't there anyway to bring him back?"

Yeshua says, in a plain and logical tone, "There is a way and Inuyasha has to be brought back to his senses, since he was the one who casted the jutsu in the first place. Now, the Infernal Tsukuyomi is slowly killing Koga from the mind."

Ayame asks Ginta and Hakkaku, curiously, "By the way, how did you guys get over here?"

Hakkaku says, in reply, "Well, we got here in a weird portal from our time and we got sucked in, but we had no idea that this was Kagome's time or Inuyasha having anymore sisters than Melody and Zera, like that Megumi girl."

Sanosake asks Kagome, "Are you going to be okay, Sissy?"

Kagome says, with tears in her eyes, "Do I look okay? Inuyasha has been turned against us! And it is my fault!"

Kira yells out, seriously, "No, it is not, Kagome! You shouldn't talk like that!"

Kagome yells out, solemnly, "Why not? Zera's right! I am nothing more than a worthless child unworthy of Inuyasha's heart!"

Hikari asks, looking for Zera, "And speaking of Zera, where is she?"

Ukyo says, in a plain tone, "Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kenochi aren't around!"

Eri says, worriedly, "Oh man! Remember when Inuyasha told us that they along with Koga snapped at him while believing that Inuyasha had betrayed Kagome and didn't know that he was frozen at the time, Zera didn't look pleased to say the least!"

Myoga says, in a serious and worried tone, "And if I know Lady Zera, things will not be very pretty!"

Jaken says, worriedly, "Myoga is correct! Anything involving Inuyasha or Melody, Lady Zera would love to hear it and if it's not good, then she will be most furious!"

Ginta says, fearfully, "Yeah no kidding! She's called 'Zera the Destroyer' for a very good reason!"

Sesshomaru says, in a plain tone, "Jaken and Myoga are correct! My younger sister is known to be unreasonable while caring for the safety of Inuyasha and Melody and it increased after we were under the assumption that Holly and Megumi were dead."

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "We better get out there and find them before Zera does something rash!" Immediately, the rest of our heroes and heroines run off to the main building of Duel Academy to find Inuyasha's elder half-siblings and 'former' friends.

(Outside of the Slifer Red dorm; Sometime soon after)

Outside the Slifer Red dorm, we find Miroku, Sango, and Shippo staring off at Zera with shocked looks on their faces while Kenochi, with a worried look, stands by his older sister's right side.

Miroku yells out, stunned, "You can't do this, Zera!"

Zera says, with a serious tone, "I can and I will, monk! It seems that miko brat is more trouble than I originally thought and with you four, especially that pathetic wolf, I'm not surprised!"

Sango says, pleadingly, "But it wasn't Kagome's fault and we had no idea that Inuyasha was frozen at that time!"

Zera says, annoyed, "Oh please! I've had it with you three siding with that brat against my brother while not getting her to wise up! I only believed that the two dirty mikos and the Light of Destruction were to blame, but you three! My brother and sisters were brainwashed by that madman, Dartz, because of you three! I should have known that one day that you'll turn on Inuyasha with your feelings with the miko brat and I was right!"

Shippo says, weakly, "But Zera…"

Zera yells out, strongly, "I've had enough! You shouldn't even say a word after your past tricks with my brother, kit! Speaking of which, it's that miko's fault for babying you so much, because you seem to get away with everything! None of you don't care for my baby brother at the least!"

Miroku says, with a serious tone, "How could you say that, Zera! We've always been loyal to Inuyasha!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Oh really, monk! I've seen those 'videos' that I had Lord Koenma give me and what I saw, I was FAR less than pleased with your actions! Not only the miko allowed hurt Inuyasha, but you three are just as stupid as she is for seeing with her eyes instead of your brains! If you had, then Inuyasha wouldn't have been brainwashed by Dartz!"

Sango says, pleadingly, "Zera, if you would you just give us a chance to explain…!"

Zera says, strongly, "Save it, Sango! You've done enough! I've made up my mind and it's final!"

Just then a familiar male voice booms, "What's going on here?" Just then everyone looks to see our heroes and heroines walk towards them.

Kenochi says, solemnly, "My friends, Zera was going to keep this information until after my younger siblings were rescued and it concerned about Inuyasha's future. However, after what we've heard and saw from one of those 'videos tapes' that Lord Koenma had given us and Zera was less than pleased than ever. As soon as our business with the Orichalcos, the Society of Light, the Light of Destruction, and possibly the 'Dark Signers' are done with, our younger siblings, especially Inuyasha, will be taken home right away and will never associate with any of you all, especially Kagome."

Our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Jaden yells out, stunned, "You can't!"

Keiko says, seriously, "Zera, that's going too far!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Keiko, I'm sorry! I may respect you, but not even you can change my mind!" Zera yells out, strongly while pointing at Kagome, "I will not have my baby brother be abused by this worthless miko any longer!"

Kagome winches at that comment as she bows her head and in shame and Yuka yells at Zera, annoyed, "Zera, that's not fair!"

Zera says, in an angered sneer, "You're right, girl! It is not fair! Fairness would be for me to give that stupid friend of yours the same pain that she's given Inuyasha, tenfold, which would give her an idea on how badly she has hurt my baby brother! Fairness would be for me to beat her down like the worthless worm that she is! Fairness would be to allow me to show those who show a family member of mine, especially my baby brother, disrespect by using the miko as a demonstration! However, luckily, for her as a human, I can't do that! However, I can make Inuyasha have nothing to do with her!"

Kira yells out, seriously, "What right do you have over Inuyasha's life!"

Koenma tells Kira, in a plain tone, "Well, since Inuyasha is only two hundred one years old which is considered the same of a human teenager around the age of seventeen and underage in demon law, Zera can do what she feels fit for him. You see, when Inu no Taisho died, in his will, he instructed if anything happen to him or Lady Izayoi, his eldest child when they become of age will be given custody of Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly until they are coming in age. The reason why he couldn't give them to Sesshomaru is that, he hated Lady Izayoi as well as her half-demon children and will kill them at the spot, if it hadn't been for Zera threatening his life if he did. In other words, until Inuyasha and his sisters are two hundred and ten years old, Zera is their legal guardian and we can't force Zera into changing her mind since she's a daiyokai, like her father, Sesshomaru, and Kenochi, and Inuyasha is her ward and her responsibly."

Yuka says, perplexed, "Daiyokai?"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "Daiyokai are powerful types of yokai that is much stronger and smarter than the common yokai. Most daiyokai have long life span possibly even longer then a normal yokai's life span. Most are able to remain calm in battle even if the situation is dire or their life threatened. You see, right now, the forms that Zera, Sesshomaru, and Kenochi, have taken right now, aren't their true forms, which is a trait that all daiyokais have. Also, when a daiyokai have offsprings with humans will produce an hanyou who inheirit their power called a daihanyou. The daihanyou will not be able to handle the power properly, so when their life is endangered they will begin to transform into berserk yokai that will kill anyone it sees. Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly are examples of daihanyous since they are offsprings of Inu no Taisho, a daiyokai. However, even daiyokais are bound to the rules of the spirit world to not to physically kill a human being, but so far, Zera hasn't made a move to kill humans, especially Kagome. However, if she was attacked in her lands in the Feudal Era, then the attacker would be severely punished. If we happen to take action by our own hands with physical violence, then the punishment is most severe on our hand and I will not go into details of the punishment, because it will be much unpleasant. It's a law that even if I were to overthrow my father and take the crown of King of the Spirit World, it can't be changed."

Hikari asks, seriously, "So there's nothing we can do about it!"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "I'm afraid not! Inuyasha is a part of Zera's family and we can't do anything to change Zera's mind, except with those within Zera's family."

Sota says, horrified, "That would mean that I'll never see Inuyasha ever again!"

Zera tells Sota, in a serious tone, "That's right, boy, and you have only to blame your stupid sister and her friends, the monk, demon slayer, and the kit, for that. Not only she's a failure as a soul mate for anyone in my family, but she's a failure as an older sister."

Sanosake says, scolding, "Zera…!"

Kagome says, solemnly, "Sanosake, don't! Zera's right again! I'm a complete failure! I allowed my emotions to get the better of me which broke Inuyasha's heart and allowed Dartz to get his claws on him. You can't really blame Zera for protecting her younger brother from anything she sees as a threat to him."

Zera says, with a snort, "Now, she says something that actually makes sense!"

Ayumi says, in a serious tone, "Zera, Kagome made a mistake! An honest mistake!"

Eri says, agreeing, "Yeah! Please, can't you give Kagome a second chance!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "I will not listen to any comment favoring the worthless idiot, especially with those who believed my baby brother to be what you humans call in this time 'two-timing thug boyfriend'!"

Ayumi, Eri, and Yuka gasp in shock and Zera says, in a serious tone, "What? You didn't think that I would have Melody spy on you four when Kagome is in this time. I had her report to me everything that the miko is doing in this time while masking her demonic aura from your friend's senses and Melody has told me everything especially when the miko didn't do anything to correct her friends' assumptions towards Inuyasha! However, I don't blame the three of you! No! The person I blame is your stupid and worthless friend for not defending Inuyasha's honor! This makes me wonder if I could even trust her with him if she's not even going to bother fighting for my brother's honor being trashed like that! It's just as worse when that pathetic wolf smears my brother's name onto the ground and that miko does nothing to help! I'm not letting my brother have a relationship with anyone like that! My decision is final! Right after our business with the evil forces in this time, my baby brother and sisters will be leaving and I'll make sure that Inuyasha will never be associated with that idiot miko ever again!"

Sango says, pleadingly, "Zera, please…we're…!"

Zera says, interrupting Sango, "I told you to save it, Sango, or didn't you hear me! In the past, you three always sided with that miko whenever she and Inuyasha argue and her misusing the rosary, you three don't do anything to stop her! This incident wouldn't have happened if you three would just stop her not just Melody hitting her on the head! You three are her friends over Inuyasha's!"

Sango yells out, seriously, "That is not fair, Zera! We're sorry if we did anything to hurt your brother! We've always been loyal to him!"

Zera yells at Sango, angrily and frostily, "Then, why am I hearing only bullshit from you! I'm only taking away Inuyasha is only for his own good so he'll never get hurt by that little moron!"

Sango tries to say something, but Miroku stopped her and Miroku tells Zera, in a serious tone, "Zera, I understand that what we did was wrong, but we didn't think that Inuyasha would stay loyal to Kagome after those times he went to see Kikyo."

Zera says, in a frost and serious tone, "You know, monk! This is a rarity that I'm hearing bullshit from you when it doesn't involve your lecherous habits."

Miroku says, pleadingly, "Zera, please! I didn't mean…!"

Zera yells out, strongly, "I said save it, monk! I'm not hearing anything words filled with favor of that miko brat and that's final! My mind as been made up and there will not be changed! After all, spirit world law in this time states that no demon could kill a human, but there's no law stating that I can't forbid Inuyasha from having anything to do with that trash of a priestess! And for your information, monk, my baby brother told me that his feelings for that low down miko, Kikyo, is long since dead!"

Kagome and her Feudal Era friends gasp in shock at this and Sango says, stunned, "His feelings for Kikyo died!"

Shippo says, seriously, "But Inuyasha's always sees Kikyo and…!"

Zera says, with a snort, "…it was strictly for business, kit, and nothing more! I could pick up that he had strong feelings for the miko brat even when he was seeing Kikyo! True, he said that he never stopped thinking of Kikyo, but he didn't say anything about him still loving her! The only reason why Inuyasha chose to kill Naraku was that he set them up and he only owes her vengeance! Also, Inuyasha told me and Kenochi that he loved Kagome a lot more than he had for Kikyo after we had to deal with Naraku!"

Miroku asks Kenochi, curiously, "Kenochi, is this true?"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "Yes, Miroku, every word except with the harsh insults towards Kagome that Zera has said right now is true! Inuyasha's feelings towards Kikyo were killed when Kikyo stole the sacred jewel shards from Kagome and gave them to Naraku while using it to create many of his incarnations to murder a load of innocent people, including a majority of Koga's and Feng's comrades. Inuyasha stated that only Kagome stood by him and the first human to care for him since Lady Izayoi. Inuyasha wanted to make Kagome his long term mate."

Kagome says, surprised, "He did!"

Kenochi says, in a plain tone, "He did, but of course, Zera and Melody refused Inuyasha to make Kagome his mate since that would mean that 'a lowly dirty priestess' would be related to them which led Inuyasha, knowing that Zera would never approve of Kagome, begging for Zera to give Kagome a test to prove herself to be loyal for a full year since Zera or Melody didn't trust her even she's proven her loyalty towards Inuyasha over and over again and if Kagome fails three times, then Inuyasha would not only give Kagome up, but have his memories of her to be completely erased."

Kagome, Miroku, Sango, and Shippo gasp in shock at this and Shippo says, surprised, "Inuyasha went that far to get Zera to accept Kagome."

Miroku asks, seriously, "Why didn't Inuyasha tell us this! If we had known about that ordeal, then…!"

Zera says, in a plain tone, "I told him not to tell any of you, especially the brat! The point of that test was I would see if the miko is really trustworthy to be allowed to be my baby brother's mate without any help from you three or one day betray him when his back was turned while I wouldn't be around to do anything about. Of course, I didn't agree with the test, but for the sake of Inuyasha, I told him that I'll allow the test to begin, provided that he doesn't tell the miko or any of his so-called friends, since they may get her to cheat the test!"

Keiko tells Zera, seriously, "Zera, Kagome has proven her loyalty even without the test taken! Why can't you get over your hatred towards priestesses and see that Kagome is different!"

Zera says, with a snort, "If she's so different, then why did she place those damned beads back on my brother's neck after my father's sword, So'unga, was sent to the netherworld! The Tetsusaiga would have prevented his demon blood to take over his mind or I would! All she ever has done was using those enchanted beads to treat Inuyasha no more than a common dog!"

Kagome yells out, seriously, "That's not true!"

Zera yells at Kagome, angrily, "You're in no position to talk to me in that fashion, you dirty brat! If I had agreed to that test, then you would have failed on three counts: one, allowing your emotions to get the better of you! Two, believing the Light of Destruction's lies about Inuyasha and got yourself brainwashed to kill him! Three and final one, was the brainwashing when my brother's heart was broken by your own hands and went all this trouble to get me to accept a worthless brat like you and that final failure was also caused by the pathetic wolf, the monk, the demon slayer, and the kit!"

Kagome winches as she lowers her head in shame and Eri yells out, angrily, "That's not fair! Kagome had no idea that…!"

Zera yells out, strongly, "She should have known that Kikyo would have frozen him since she's done it before and the miko should have remembered it! She should have known that Inuyasha would never openly betray her like that after risking his life to save her, besides, she being the reincarnation of Kikyo and she being able to see the shards of the Shikon Jewel, over and over until there's no point! If it hadn't been for Inuyasha, then your friend's worthless life would have been ended long ago with villains like the Thunder Brothers, the Band of Seven, and even someone like Naraku!"

Kagome thinks in her mind, solemnly while her eyes were forming tears, "Zera's right! If it hadn't been for Inuyasha, then I would have been dead! I knew Inuyasha better than that, but I allowed my emotions to get the better of me! Inuyasha has always risked his life to save mine and how do I repay him, when I see Kikyo kissing Inuyasha, I assumed the worst and didn't give him a chance to explain! Now, Inuyasha's brainwashed by that freak, Dartz! Even if Inuyasha somehow forgives me, there's no way that Zera would allow my relationship with Inuyasha to continue! Oh man! What have I done!"

Zera says, with a serious tone, "All I see her doing is taking Inuyasha for granted and I refuse to allow someone like her to be added to my family! In my mind, she's far worse than any priestesses I've met and killed while at the same time! She and the unconscious wolf should have been mates since that both have one main thing; they're both stupid and weak! Someone like that brat doesn't deserve my baby brother's love and I don't want my brother to be with someone tainted with such immense amounts of weaknesses, selfishness, and lack of common sense!" Zera says, while glaring at Miroku, Sango, and Shippo, "And the same goes for you three!"

Sango says, shocked, "What!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "After what you've done, you three don't deserve to be called my brother's friends when friends don't do what you three have done to him! Like the miko, you three just seem to take Inuyasha for granted! After I erase Inuyasha's memories of the stupid girl, I'll proceed on erasing any memories of you three from his mind!"

Miroku yells out, seriously, "Zera, you can't!"

Zera says, with a snort, "I can and I will! Melody has told me stories where whenever Inuyasha and the moron get into an argument, you three jokers side with the stupid miko always as if she's no older than five years old in human years! For an example, whenever the kit plays his usual pranks on Inuyasha and Inuyasha bashes him on the head then the miko 'sitting' him, you two don't do anything to scold her! However, whenever Melody bashes Kagome's head, you three scold her for doing so when it was Kagome, who was in the wrong for 'sitting' Inuyasha for teaching the fox brat a hard lesson!"

Shippo yells out, seriously, "But I was only playing! I didn't mean to take it too far!"

Zera says, in a snort, "So you say, kit! All the miko does is baby you without toughing you up! If she wants to be playing the mother, there's always discipline that she needs to apply to insure that you survive in the real world! Especially a demon child like you at your age, should be ashamed! You think that Kagome will be around to protect you from harm! You seem to forget that unlike Inuyasha, Melody doesn't have those beads and she can beat you down as she pleased and can bully you whenever she pleased for being weak. The only reason why you can stand up for yourself with Inuyasha is because of Kagome and the reason why you could stand up for yourself against Melody is because you believe that Inuyasha can protect you since he's one of the people can try to reason with her. Let me ask you something, kit, what would you do if both Inuyasha and Kagome are gone, then what? And since Inuyasha's free from the rosary, what's stopping him from bashing your head again without Kagome to stop him this time when you play those pranks?"

Those questions struck Shippo harder than the usual bashes that he's gotten from both Inuyasha and Melody and he thinks in his mind, shocked, "Oh man! I didn't even think about those situations!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "When Inuyasha was your age, he killed his first demon without any help from me or Kenochi and the same for Melody too! Inuyasha also caught his first fish and could kill to get his meal from rabbits to frogs when he was a small child no older than you were. I even got Kenochi to help me teach him and Melody the Iron Reaver Soul Stealer and I taught Inuyasha and Melody the Blades of Blood.

Kenochi says, with a plain tone, "I hate to say this but I have to agree with Zera without the harsh words. I had to help Inuyasha and Zera had to train Melody the Iron Reaver Soul Stealer and we were proud of them for learning such a technique in case they come across a demon that would try to kill them."

Miroku says, amazed, "I had no idea that happened and when Inuyasha and Melody were only children!"

Zera says, in a plain tone, "Yes, I was very proud of those two for perfecting those techniques and the training that I've set up for them was in the way that knowing the stupid miko brat would never approve of Shippo from taking apart of if Shippo wanted to learn the techniques. Too bad that he'll never get the chance since as soon as our business with the Orichalcos, the Society of Light, the Light of Destruction, and possibly the 'Dark Signers' have been taking care of, then Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly will be taken back home with me and never associate with the miko or her friends ever again. Since the 'no killing human' rule doesn't applied in the Feudal Era and if I happen to see the brat as well as the monk and the demon slayer even that kit anywhere within a good inches near my younger siblings again, then I promise that the consequences will not be very pleasing to say the least!"

Kira yells out, strongly, "Zera, that's…!"

Kagome yells out, solemnly and seriously, "Kira, don't! Please, I don't want any fight to start up because of me! After what I've done, I don't think I can take it if someone's death happens because of me! Please, Kira, don't be angry with Zera! She's doing this to protect her younger brother from harm!"

Hojo tells Kagome, seriously, "How can we not, Kagome! She's unfairly placing all blame on Inuyasha's brainwashing on your head while at the same time calling you 'worthless'! I know that she's angry with her brother's fate, but she shouldn't be blaming you like that!"

Kagome says, in a depressed tone, "But she's right! It's my fault that Inuyasha and his sisters have been brainwashed by that monster! It's partly my fault that the Society of Light was even made in the first place! It's my fault that some many people were brainwashed by my hands when I was in the Society of Light! I've also said some awful things to Ranma when he was severely getting blamed for calling that Chinese Amazon, Shampoo, here when Ranma was set up by Dartz. It's my fault that so many souls were taken like some of Ranma's rivals and other suitors as well as the innocent souls that Dartz has taken away by using Inuyasha to do his dirty work! It's my fault that Dartz has the Shikon Jewel! It's my fault that Koga is trapped in a deadly coma! And it's my fault that I caused the 'Supreme Princess' to gain more and more power in Keiko!"

Keiko tells Kagome, "Kagome, I…!"

Kagome says, solemnly, "Don't defend me, Keiko! I don't deserve it! I don't deserve your forgiveness or friendship! Zera's right! Someone like me doesn't deserve Inuyasha and I wouldn't be surprised if Inuyasha will never forgive me." Kagome then walks away from her family, friends, and allies towards the Slifer Red dorm with a depressed look on her face while tears came down her face. Soon after, many of our heroes and heroines give Zera annoyed and angered glares.

Tyson yells out, annoyed, "How could you say all those things!"

Daichi yells out, seriously, "Yeah! That would harsh beyond reason!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Call it as it may be, but I'm doing this to protect my brother!"

Keiko yells out, seriously, "From what! Zera, Kagome has admitted that she made a mistake and she's regretting the choice that she's made! Now, you're forbidding Inuyasha for having anything to do with her! That's so unfair!"

Koenma tells Keiko, in a plain tone, "Despite how harsh it may be, we don't have the power or the right to convince Zera otherwise! Before Lord Inu no Taisho's death, he gave custody of Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly until they were two hundred ten years old in case that Lady Izayoi died. The case involving Inuyasha should be people that are a part of Inuyasha's family, namely Zera."

Zera says, in a plain tone, "Prince Koenma is right! This is a family matter and the subject is closed! Inuyasha will be leaving with me and will never come back to this era ever again! I'm not going to lose anymore of my loved ones because of another priestess!"

Everyone of our heroes and heroines look at Zera with surprised looks and TK says, perplexed, "Another priestess!"

Miroku asks, curiously, "Zera, what do you mean!"

Zera says, in a sneer, "That's none of your business, monk! All I'm not going to allow Inuyasha's relationship with that miko to continue anymore!" Soon after, Zera jumps into the sky while leaving our heroes and heroines behind.

Kenochi sighs as he turns to our heroes and heroines and he tells them, "My friends, please don't think so ill towards Zera! In her own strange way, she really cares and loves my little brother and sisters with all her heart. She's just doing what she believes is right for them."

Kira says, in a serious tone, "But still Kenochi, it's not fair! Just because of any problems that Zera may have with priestesses, doesn't mean that she should take it out on Kagome!"

Yuka says, plainly, "If you ask me, I think that Zera expects too much from Kagome! What if Inuyasha did really betrayed her with Kikyo?"

Miroku tells Yuka, in a serious tone, "That would be a horrible question to even consider at this point since it was that thought which made Zera to make up her mind and once it's made up, there's no changing it." Miroku says, in a plain tone, "However, in a way, Sango, Shippo, and I are too blame for Inuyasha's brainwashing all because in the past, we may have been remiss in our dealings with Kagome."

Shippo asks, curiously, "How so?"

Miroku says, in a serious tone, "We've been treating Kagome like she's from our time when she really isn't. In our time, by her age, she would have been married with a child or two. In this world, she's still considered a child, and the recent event with the Light of Destruction and the Orichalcos have shown me how wrong we were in our dealings with her…None of us said anything when she used the rosary excessively because we thought that it was amusing. We would all laugh, call Inuyasha names, and basically put him down in front of her. We scolded Melody for not giving Kagome a great deal of mistrust and contempt and we try to get her to be our friend, but sometimes it wasn't enough. We took Kagome's side in every argument, and let her have her way in almost everything. In essence, we made her the leader when she really wasn't."

Shippo says, in retort, "But we were just having fun. I don't think we hurt the jerk; it's hard to hurt his feelings. Besides, Melody is the only one that hits Kagome for having a little harmless fun with Inuyasha and Melody decides to have her own fun, which takes things a bit too far."

Sango says, in a serious tone, "No Shippo, you're wrong. Inuyasha has feelings; he just rarely lets others see them with the exception of Kenochi, Zera, and Melody. We shouldn't have always sided with one and not the other. I'm not saying Kagome wasn't justified in using the subduing spell sometimes, just not always. And she is childish in some ways, we just overlooked it. I'm not agreeing with Zera that this whole event was Kagome's fault, but we should have never lashed out on Inuyasha like we did. Now, thanks to our actions, the relationship that Inuyasha and Kagome could have with one another is gone and we may have lost a good and reliable friend."

Shippo yells out, worriedly, "So what do we do now?"

Sota runs up to Kenochi and he asks him, pleadingly, "Kenochi, please! You've got to get Zera to change her mind! Sis didn't mean to hurt Inuyasha the way that she did! She really loves him and I don't want to lose Inuyasha either! Inuyasha is my hero and he's been like a second older brother to me! I don't want to lose my brother because of this!"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "It's a little complicated, kid! Right now, Zera isn't listening to any words filled with favoritism for Kagome. This isn't like the other times that this happened and knowing Zera, she was waiting for the right time for this to happen and she'll do anything to keep Kagome away from Inuyasha."

Eri asks, curiously, "Isn't there anything to change her mind?"

Miroku says, solemnly, "Not likely, Eri. Zera would never change her mind when concerned for Inuyasha's safety."

Ukyo says, in a plain tone, "And speaking of Inuyasha, we still have time to save him since the coma he placed Koga in will give him six weeks to live."

Feng says, with a snort, "I say let the foolish wolf die!"

Sango yells out to Feng, stunned, "Feng, how could you say such a thing!"

Feng says, in a serious tone, "That wolf had it coming! He never did learn his place in the end even after Lady Zera pounded every inch of his life and ripped the sacred jewels from his legs! Besides, who to say that Lord Inuyasha wouldn't release him from the coma that he gave him. Like me, Lady Zera, and Lady Melody, Lord Inuyasha has hated that third rate demon and I wouldn't be surprised if he just lets him die."

Shippo yells out, strongly, "That's not true, Feng! Even if Inuyasha hated Koga, there's no way that he'd just leave Koga to die!"

Jaken says, lowly, "Except that he had the rosary around his neck at the time."

Shippo says, drolly, "You're not helping, Jaken!"

Just then, a male voice calls out, "Hello there!" Everyone turns to see Masaru and Rita walking over to them.

Happosai yells out, in pure lecherous excitement when he looks at Rita's 'assess', "How sweet! Pretty girl!" Happosai then jumps towards the Rita's chest to give him his infamous 'hug', but Masaru's right fist, smashes to Happosai's face, throwing him into the air, surprising many of our heroes and heroines.

Masaru yells out, angrily, "Stay away from my sister, you pervert!"

Genma thinks in his mind, surprised, "He managed to hit the master easily! The only person that's able to do that is Hotaru and the Japanese Amazon elder, Yukio!"

Cologne thinks in her mind, in a rare surprised tone, "This boy managed to get Happy so easily like Hotaru and my sister! Who is he!"

Yugi asks them, "May we help you?"

Masaru tells Yugi, "Are you Yugi Moto?"

Yugi says, with a nod, "Yes, but what do you want with me?"

Masaru says, with a smile, "I'm glad that we found you, Mister Moto. I'm Masaru Ishikawa." Just then, our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Joe yells out, shocked, "Ishikawa!"

Genki says, seriously, "You wouldn't be by any chance related to a Mayumi Ishikawa!"

Rita says, with a nod, "Yes, she's our sister. I'm Rita Ishikawa, Mayumi's younger sister!"

Masaru says, in a pleading tone, "You've got it all wrong! My sister was never like that at all! This Dartz person did something to Mayumi, I know it!"

Tyson says, in a snarl, "I won't be surprised, dude! That creep is one of our enemies who we're fighting against."

Kai says, in a serious tone, "And it's going to be pretty difficult since Mayumi is brainwashed by Dartz!"

Masaru says, perplexed, "Brainwashed?" Just then, Yugi and his friends told Masaru and Rita stories about the Orichalcos as well as its origins and Rita yells out, horrified, "You mean that my sister has been brainwashed by that Dartz creep to steal human souls for some overgrown lizard!"

Yugi says, in a serious tone, "That's why we said that it's going to be complicated to help your sister since we have to beat her and if she happens to play the Seal of Orichalcos and lose, then her soul will be stripped away from her body for the Great Leviathan."

Raphael says, in a serious tone, "The other way of your sister being saved is if her Orichalcos stone is shattered by her Light, the same way it happened with me."

Alister says, in a serious tone, "Did something happen with your sister while back?"

Rita says, perplexed, "What do you mean?"

Joey says, in a serious tone, "Well, the only way for an overgrown snake like Dartz to get his claws on your sister is if he set you guys up for something."

Misaki says, with a snort, "Or she was hurt emotionally by a loved one." Amaya winches at Misaki's comment as it was intentionally meant for her.

Masaru says, with an angered snarl, "If you're referring to the rotten little punk, who's long due for a punch in a face, who used to be Mayumi's best friend, then I think that we're on the right page."

Rita says, with a snort, "His name was Shakuma Sakami and he was once Mayumi's best and only friend since childhood, before he stabbed her in the back."

TK asks, curiously while pressing his foot further down to keep Happosai down, "What happened?"

Rita says, with a serious tone, "Mayumi told us the whole story! The night after the date she had with that miserable punk, she overheard Shakuma's basketball friends talk getting to talk about their date and Shakuma lied about their date added with anything 'juicy' if you know what I mean!"

Yuka yells out, angrily, "Why that pig!"

Eri says, in a serious tone, "No wonder! I'd be pissed off as hell if someone did that to me!"

Tiara says, in an angered snarl, "Tell me where this pig lives!"

Rika says, angrily, "No joke, Tiara! We'll make him pay for what he did to the poor girl!"

Masaru says, pulling out a picture of Shakuma and Mayumi, with their arms around each other with happy smiles on their lips, "This is the little punk and he's on this island."

Hikari says, in a dark serious tone, "Wait a sec! I've seen him before! He's with the Society of Light!"

Rita yells out, shocked, "You mean Sakami is with those guys!"

Masaru says, in a snarl, "Good! Now, I know where to find him and give him the beating of a lifetime for what he put my sister through!"

Kira tells Masaru, in a dark serious tone, "Wait a sec! You don't want to charge over there without any muscle with you!"

Masaru says, with a confident smirk, "You don't have to worry about me! I'm an expect fighter and I could handle anything that comes my way!"

Rita says, with a sly grin, "It's true! My brother is the best fighter there is!"

Jaden says, in a dark serious tone, "We're serious, bro! You and your sister really don't want to go over there!"

Masaru asks, curiously, "You mean explaining why?"

Davis tells Jaden, seriously, "Jay, we might as well tell him the whole story otherwise he may get over there and those geeks will get more members!" Soon enough, our heroes and heroines begin to tell Masaru and Rita everything that has happened with them.

(Within Duel Academy; sometime later)

In the hallways of Duel Academy, we find Stacy Magellan walking down the hall with a worn out state. Ever since the defeat of Kraus Yamamoto as well as her friends by the hands of the Orichalcos controlled Hikaru Sato as well as the humiliation that Hikaru has handed her and the brainwashing of Amaya Suzuki, she hasn't been sleeping much since she was getting nightmares of the terrorizing that Hikaru and the other Orichalcos members have played on her. As she walks around the corner, she unknowingly steps onto a banana peel and she yelps in shock as she falls on her back, making her yelp in pain. Just then, a barrage of laughter was heard as she sits up and rubs her head while turning to the source of the laughter which happens to be the Orichalcos controlled Hikaru Sato, Ranma Saotome, Mayumi Ishikawa, Allie Senryu, and Naruto Uzumaki with dark cold sly grins on their lips.

Naruto says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Hey, bitch, did you like your trip!"

Stacy stands up and she says, in a snarl, "You…!"

Hikaru says, with a dark cold cruel smirk, "Hey guys, look at the pathetic slut now! All alone with no friends with you to back you up!"

Stacy was fuming as she was glaring at Hikaru and she yells out, angrily, "This is all your fault! I swear that I will find a way to make you pay for ruining my life!"

Ranma says, with a dark cold sly grin, "What can you do, dweeb!"

Hikaru says, with a dark cold sly smile, "I think that the slut doesn't like to be bullied! Well, too bad, bitch, if I recall, you and your worthless group used to do this to me every day! Now, it's payback time! Let's put the bitch into a trash can!"

Mayumi says, with an evil sly grin, "Good idea, Ranma!" Before Stacy can move, Mayumi and Allie grabs her arms and drags her over to a nearby trash can with her screaming protects.

Stacy yells out, "Hey, let me go! Let me go!"

Hikaru says, with an evil smile, "What's the matter, dork? You don't like trash! Too bad! This is karma! This is what you and your friends have done to me over the years!" Soon enough, they found a trash can near a corner filled with garbage.

Stacy yells out, horrified, "You wouldn't dare!"

Hikaru says, with an evil smile, "We would?"

Stacy yells out, annoyed, "Haven't you done enough to ruin my life! You and your group have tormented me, taken away my friends, and destroyed my reputation at school to where I can't show my face at school without getting fun of."

Hikaru says, with an evil sly grin, "Too bad, whore! Girls, dump her in the trash!" Soon enough, Mayumi and Allie throws Stacy into the garbage and Ranma closes the trash can with a top, and then kicks the trash can down the stairs with Stacy screaming. When the trash can hits the bottom, Stacy falls out of the trash can with chewed up gum in her hair.

Stacy feels her hair and she screams out, horrified, "My hair!"

Hikaru says, with a dark cold smile, "Hey wench, that's a nice look for you!" Soon enough, the Orichalcos members laughed at Stacy as she glares at them with great anger in her eyes and gets out of the trash cat.

Stacy yells out, angrily, "Mark my words, Sato! You and your friends will pay for this!" Stacy rushes away from them while sobbing away and drowning away the laughter that was directly towards her.

(In the early evening hours; within the 'White Dorm')

Inside of one of the meeting rooms within the 'White Dorm', we find our SOL controlled heroes and heroines are inside with other SOL members as they were talking about how they watched the Orichalcos controlled Inuyasha, as Taigoku, nearly killing Koga, which some of the SOL members weren't surprised since Inuyasha wanted to kill Koga for some time. Sometime ago, Yusuke regains conscious with Akane, Sakura, Alexis, Chazz, Shakuma, and Kari still unconscious from the pounding of the Orichalcos members. Soon after, Yusuke explained what happened and what Inuyasha did to Kagome in the Shadow Duel that she and Keiko dueled in.

Yolei says, in a cold angered tone, "Dartz has gone too far this time!"

Ray says, in a cold serious tone, "Without Kagome, we lost our magic since she's the only one here with priestess abilities, though, it wasn't much help against Melody's and those troublesome Da-jinns, the Tucker twins, magic."

Sayuri says, in a cold plain tone, "The good news is that pesky wolf won't bother us since Inuyasha put him out of commission."

Yusuke says, in a cold plain tone, "However, with Kagome back with those backstabbing friends from the Feudal Era, they may use her again!"

Hinata says, in a cold worried tone, "But what can we do? The nonbelievers and the Orichalcos are stronger than our forces and it may have been a mistake to go against the Orichalcos since they know our every move."

Ken says, in a cold serious tone, "And with a new Eternal Warrior that Dartz has in his organization, we're in deeper trouble."

Yolei says, with a cold plain tone, "Well, the good news is that Master Sartorius is finding a way to get Yusuke, Ken, Kari, and I to the Digital World to get the Digimon to see the Light, before the Orichalcos decided to destroy it even more so."

Tenten says, in a cold serious tone, "But there's your friends, Davis, TK, and the other Digidestined with the nonbelievers as well as Tai Kamiya, along with Ranma and Hotaru Saotome. With those annoying Orichalcos Curse Marks, Ranma and Hotaru can be even more powerful than Yusuke when they go to stage two when they are working together."

Yusuke says, in a cold angered tone, "What I wouldn't do to ring Dartz's neck for what he's done!"

Ken says, in a cold serious tone, "But with Inuyasha and his sisters guarding him, it's going to be harder. Besides, Yusuke, you can't fight them at your current condition."

Yusuke says, in a cold annoyed tone, "I know that! What I don't get is how he knows all of our plans before we can even execute them and getting our asses kicked by his goons!"

Gaomon says, in a cold serious tone, "I know what you mean, sir! It's a bit harder to know."

Just then, a male voice calls out, in a dark cold tone, "Maybe you white geeks are so predicable that it's funny!"

The SOL members gasps in shock and Ken yells out, in a cold strong tone, "Who's there!"

The dark male voice calls out, "I'll give you a hint, Kenny boy! We're the enemies of the 'Signers'!"

Sayuri asks, curiously, "Are you a 'Dark Signer'!"

The dark voice replies, "That's right, little girl! And we have powers that are ancient and come from the very core of darkness, so, your so called 'light' will never 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! 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.

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

Yuka 2 says, stunned, "That was a 'Dark Signer'!"

Yolei says, in a cold serious tone, "Yeah! It looks like they are really here on Duel Academy like Ranma said before!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't care what they are! They're not getting Keiko and the other 'Signers'! I'll make sure of that!"

(Somewhere on Academy Island; A brief time afterwards)

Within a mysterious 'dark room' somewhere on Academy Island, we find three cloaked 'Dark Signers', assembled together in the same room.

Devack tells Roman, with a dark cold plain tone, "Those fools think that their precious Light of Destruction will help them? Our Immortals no more than their nightlight can take, Roman."

Roman replies, with a dark sly tone, "Like the Orichalcos, they are nothing to worry about, Devack. Right now, we need to focus on our real targets: The 'Signers'."

Kalin says, with a dark cold sly smile, "It looks like 'little Kaggie' is no longer with them!"

Roman tells Kalin, in a dark cold sly tone, "You wouldn't want to worry about her, Kalin! She'll never fight again which means that she's nothing."

Kalin says, in a dark cold serious tone, "I don't care, Roman! I want her and her fucking cousin to pay for what they've done to me! I will not allow that Orichalcos half-breed get the pleasure of taking them down!"

(Three days; within the Slifer Red dorm)

Within one of the rooms at the Slifer Red dorm, we find Kagome Higurashi, lying on her stomach in her female Obelisk Blue uniform instead of her female SOL member uniform with an extremely depressed and broken look on her face with a semi-lifeless look in her eyes. She's been lying on her bed for three days straight without anything to eat or drink as a matter of fact, she was too disgusted with herself to eat anything. Earlier on, our heroes and heroines, except for Zera since she was even more disgusted with Kagome, explained about what happened while she was under the control of Sartorius and the SOL and how it came to be. Kagome was amazed to learn that about more Inuyasha's family, namely the human half and Inuyasha having more sisters, who were half-demons, and one happens to be Genki's good friend, Holly, the days of Davis's and Genki's spirit detective teams of fighting in the Dark Tournaments that they were forced into fighting, and Keiko's Physic powers as well as her relation to Jaden, but her amazement turned into major guilt and depression about learning how the Light of Destruction controlled Sartorius and Kikyo tricked both her and Inuyasha with Kikyo freezing Inuyasha and kissing him while believing that Inuyasha had betrayed her which was the news that Zera told her, which she 'slightly stretches' the truth due to her personality and feelings for her family and her anger and distain towards Kagome and her brainwashing by the Light of Destruction. Especially when the memories of her days as an SOL member return to her mind and they were very vivid and horrifying Kagome to her core. Her will to fight was totally shattered and despite her friends', cousins', and brothers' pleading to get back into the fight to save Inuyasha since she is a Chosen Duelist too, Kagome was too deeply depressed and felt that she was a burden on the others, especially Keiko, and that she would only make things worse.

Just then, a knock on the door was heard and a familiar female voice calls out, "Hey Kagome!"

Kagome automatically knew who that was since she knew that her friends were worried about her since she hadn't left her room since Zera's verbal lashing and declaration that she will never continue her relationship with Inuyasha after what had happened. Soon after, with Kagome being right, her friends, Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi with Hojo, Keiko, Hikari, Kira, Sango, Shippo, Miroku, Kenochi, Sanosake, Sota, and Feng, walked into her room.

Sota says, horrified, "Oh man, sis! You look horrible!"

Kagome groans softy as she looks away from them, ashamed to face them, while remembering that she was plotting to kill her friends as well as Inuyasha when she was brainwashed. Not only she didn't want to eat or drink anything, she was totally distant with her friends.

Kira tells Kagome, "Hey Kagome, there's lunch in the cafeteria." Kagome, however, didn't respond to Kira's words, but just stayed there as if she was dead.

Keiko says, out of concern, "Kagome, you haven't eaten in days!"

Kagome says, lowly and really solemnly, "I don't care…I'm too disgusted at myself to eat."

Miroku tells Kagome, "Kagome, it wasn't your fault that this happened!"

Sango says, concerned, "We don't blame you for this! The ones to blame are the Light of Destruction and Kikyo! They're the ones that set you and Inuyasha up!"

Kagome says, in a low dreary tone, "And like a moron I fell for it and end up brainwashed while having Inuyasha brainwashed by that animal, Dartz. Zera was right! I don't deserve Inuyasha at all and I don't deserve any friends especially Keiko's friendship. I hurt her and Inuyasha really badly."

Keiko says, seriously, "Kagome, I don't blame you for what happened with me! The Light of Destruction was the one who was pulling the strings! You were brainwashed like Yusuke and the others that the Light of Destruction had taken control."

Kagome says, lowly, "But, I can't forgive myself! I can't…I can never face Inuyasha ever again! Not after what I've done! I even was trying to brainwash him as well as his sisters too when the Light of Destruction told me the truth about what happened! I caused more pain and trouble to where I can't even look at myself. Inuyasha risked everything while I just shut him out and allowed myself to believe the Light of Destruction's lies."

Miroku says, plainly, "Kagome, Sango, Shippo, and I are just to blame for Inuyasha's brainwashing. Like you, we saw him and Kikyo kissing and believed that Inuyasha has turned his back on you. However, when Shippo saw Kikyo talking to Sartorius about their plans, we were riddled with guilt about our actions towards Inuyasha that we almost couldn't bear to face him. We begged for Inuyasha's forgiveness and he did forgive us and I do believe that he will do for you."

Kagome says, lowly, "I doubt that! There's no way that he'll ever forgive me! I let him down! Zera's right, Miroku, I am a total failure and don't deserve Inuyasha! Zera will never give me another chance and knowing Melody, she'll be mad as hell once she finds out. I'd be surprise if she doesn't beat me down until I can't walk anymore or yell out insults at my face on how stupid and weak I am! In any rate, there's no point to continue. I can never face Inuyasha ever again! Not like he is now! It's too much to bear! Please, you guys, I'd like to be alone."

Ayumi tries to speak, but Kenochi stops her, and he tells her, "There's nothing we can do for her now. It's best that we give her space since she's buried in her guilt and shame." Soon after, they left the room with Kagome turning her head away to have her face buried on her pillow to continue her sobs felled with guilt and shame.

While outside, Kagome's friends spot Kurama, Karin, Davis, TK, Shikamaru, Ino, and Danielle by the wall and Karin asks, "How is she?"

Miroku says, in a serious tone, "The situation with the Light of Destruction and the Orichalcos has broken Kagome's spirit."

Kurama says, with a smile, "Well, three days isn't enough to heal a broken heart or spirit. Right now, Kagome feels as if she let Inuyasha down with her actions and I think it's best for her to be left alone."

Eri says, seriously, "But we're really worried about her! She can't stay like forever!"

Yuka says, in a dark serious tone, "I know! This is all that Light of Destruction's fault as well as that Kikyo's too! If they would have just left Kagome and Inuyasha alone then Kagome wouldn't be feeling this kind of pain right now!"

Kira says, in a dark serious tone, "I know how you feel, Yuka! Not to mention that the Orichalcos had a part to play in this when Dartz brainwashed Inuyasha."

Shikamaru says, in his usual tone, "Oh man! This is such a total drag! We may her to bring Inuyasha back from Dartz!"

Danielle says, in a serious tone, "Well, I think that we should make an alternative plan! With Kagome out of it to fight, our best bet is the have one of the 'Chosen Ones' who have a strong connection with Inuyasha like a family member, friend, or loved one to bring him back from the Orichalcos."

Feng says, with a sigh, "None of the 'Chosen Ones' in our group has a strong enough connection with Lord Inuyasha like Lady Kagome have."

Shikamaru says, in his usual tone, "Now, it is a drag since that's left are the last three 'Chosen Hanyou' and they're with the Orichalcos!"

TK says, in a serious tone, "Then, we should target one of Inuyasha's sisters and who better than Genki since he happens to know one of Inuyasha's sisters, Holly, better than we do! With Holly here, then we'll have a better chance of getting Inuyasha back if Kagome is still too out of it to duel."

Sota asks Kenochi, curiously, "Kenochi, did you have any luck getting Zera to change her mind?"

Kenochi says, with a solemn sigh, "I'm sorry, Sota! My hands are tied at the moment! My sister is a stubborn one! She's still won't give Kagome a second chance!"

Yuka says, annoyed, "What's with her and her beef towards Kagome! Just because she's a reincarnation of a priestess, especially the one that she hates the most, and she comes from a priestess family doesn't mean that Kagome is anything like the priestesses she met. Kagome is regretting her mistake towards her brother! That should be enough!"

Sango says, solemnly, "However, after our actions against Inuyasha, Zera will never listen to us since she'll believe that we're favoring Kagome mainly."

Ayumi says, in a serious tone, "But what about Inuyasha? Doesn't she care what he may feel!"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "My sister still thinks that getting Inuyasha to stay away from Kagome will only protect him from anymore pain that he felt from this case. In her own way, Zera cares and loves my little brother with all her heart and will do what she feels is right to protect him."

Miroku says, in a serious tone, "And we can't force Zera to change her mind after what Sango, Shippo, and I did to Inuyasha and we're not related to Inuyasha by blood. The only people that are about to are Melody, Megumi, and Holly since Inuyasha is the one who made that deal with Zera."

Shippo says, drolly, "And we could just rule Melody out since knowing her, she'll blame Kagome and side with Zera anyways."

Sango says, in a plain tone, "Then, our best bet will probably will be Holly since from what we seen she's the most understanding one and she knows what happened. We couldn't say anything thinking how Zera will react and we don't know much about Megumi if she'll react in a similar fashion as Melody or Holly!"

Kenochi says, in a plain tone, "There would be another chance to save my brother and sisters, but a slim chance."

Davis says, in a plain tone, "I'm all ears!"

Kenochi says, in a plain tone, "When my little brother and sisters were little kids and Lady Izayoi was still alive, they had a friend…a cat hanyou named NekitaKariba or Milo for short."

Miroku says, surprised, "Wait! Inuyasha and Melody had a friend back when they were kids!"

Shippo says, perplexed, "I thought that they only had each other as well as their sisters, mother, Zera, and you!"

Kenochi says, in a plain tone, "Actually, Milo was their only friend since she was a half-demon like them and she was like a sister to them as well as to me and Zera. She's half-human, a quarter tiger demon, and a quarter cat demon and they were inseparable until after the day that Lady Izayoi died and Megumi and Holly had left us. Milo's father was a half-tiger demon and half-cat demon while her mother was a demon slayer like Sango. I think her name was Katsuura."

Sango says, in a surprised tone, "I've heard about her from my father, but I didn't think that she had a child."

Miroku asks, curiously, "Why Inuyasha or Melody didn't tell us about her?"

Kenochi says, in a solemn tone, "Well, she died a long time ago, Inuyasha and Melody told us this. We were horrified by the loss of our dear friend that we thought of as a sister."

Davis says, in a serious tone, "If she's dead, then she's not a lot of help."

Kenochi says, in a serious tone, "Not exactly, Davis, because from what I've heard, Lord Koenma could bring people from Spirit World that has been dead from sometime for a short time like he did with L. We could ask Koenma to bring Milo back, just this one time, to help us with bringing my younger brother and sisters back from the Orichalcos's control."

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, "I wouldn't be so sure, Kenochi." Everyone turns to see Koenma walking over to them.

Davis says, annoyed, "I just wish for once that you wouldn't popping out of nowhere like that!"

Miroku asks Koenma, "Lord Koenma, what brings you here?"

Koenma says, in a plain tone, "I came here to see how Kagome is doing ever since she was brought back from the Light of Destruction's control."

Sango says, with a sigh, "She's still out of it and it's not getting any better. Also, Koga is still under that coma that Inuyasha placed in with that new Mangekyo Sharingan technique."

Koenma says, in a plain tone, "I see!"

Danielle says, in a plain tone, "We're planning an alternative to save Inuyasha or any of his sisters that's under the control of the Orichalcos."

TK says to Koenma, plainly, "Anyway, Koenma, you wouldn't come here if it wasn't important. What's up?"

Koenma says, in a plain tone, "Well, I just wanted to say that NekitaKariba isn't dead."

Kenochi says, surprised, "But Inuyasha and Melody said that…!"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "Let me explain it clearly. You see, NekitaKariba's father, Miyake, found out about his daughter playing with dog hanyous that he forbid her from ever playing with them anymore and NekitaKariba had no choice but to obey her father's wishes. Years later when they got older, Inuyasha and Melody went to the Nekita village, which was a feline cat type village, where the villagers were so hostile of them since they were dog hanyous. Inuyasha and Melody wanted to see NekitaKariba and they say that they were friends with him. Of course, the villagers believed that to be a lie since Nekita and Inu no Taisho's clan were bitter enemies and Inuyasha and Melody came from Inu no Taisho's clan with them being his children. Then, the worst came, when NekitaKariba came out of her home and shunning Inuyasha and Melody, claiming that she didn't know them and that she hated dogs as well as chased them out of the village."

Kenochi yells out, seriously, "No way! Milo would never do such a thing!"

Davis yells out, angrily, "I bet you anything this is Dartz's work! He probably made a fake NekitaKariba to say those things to Inuyasha and Melody!"

Koenma says, while shaking his head, "No Davis! That was the real NekitaKariba. It had her real scent and you can't copy that either. The experience was so horrifying that Inuyasha and Melody told you that lie since they believed their dear friend had died a long time ago."

Kenochi says, horrified, "I don't get it! Why would Milo say those things? I know that our clans were bitter enemies, but still…"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "You've got to understand that NekitaKariba had to obey her father's wishes and she absolutely regretted ever saying those things to her dear friends. She felt that Inuyasha or Melody would never forgive her as well as you or Zera. Plus, there's something else you should know, NekitaKariba's parents were killed by Naraku."

Kenochi, Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Feng gasp in shock and Miroku says, surprised, "Naraku killed them!"

Koenma says, with a nod, "Yes, it was two months after Kikyo sealed Inuyasha and Melody and a month after Naraku cursed Miroku's grandfather with the Wind Tunnel. Naraku wanted a jewel shard from the Nekita clan, but Miyake and Katsuura refused to give to him and Naraku killed them."

Kenochi says, with a snort, "Why am I not surprised?"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "When NekitaKariba heard about the news, she was devastated by this news that it shattered her heart. NekitaKariba went to her favorite tree and cried while absentmindedly placed herself into suspend animation and still is right now."

Keiko says, worriedly, "Poor thing."

Koenma says, plainly, "Yes, I just found out that NekitaKariba is a 'Chosen Hanyou' and that there were five 'Chosen Hanyous'."

Feng says, in a serious tone, "I've always believed that they were only four, but a fifth one was never heard of."

Koenma says, in a plain tone, "Over time, the stories of the legendary 'Chosen Hanyous' of Ancient Egypt had been looked down upon since there was no demon that would believe that both humans and demons will ever co-exist together in harmony that the exact number of the 'Chosen Hanyous' have yet to been notice. As of right now, it's very imperative that the 'Chosen Hanyous' have to be reunited with the forces of the 'Dark Signers', the Orichalcos, and the Light of Destruction."

TK says, in a serious tone, "And not to mention that our old enemies are making an appearance on the island."

Kenochi asks Koenma, "Lord Koenma, do you know where we could find Milo?"

Koenma says, with a plain tone, "I know where! It's at the lands of the Nekita and it's on an island, near the mainland."

Kurama asks Kenochi, "Lord Kenochi, aren't your clan and the Nekita bitter enemies and you favor this 'NekitaKariba'."

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "Yes, when we met Milo, Zera and I were distrustful towards her, but when we heard from Melody, Megumi, and Holly that she rescued them from a group of demons, place all of our distrust towards her aside."

Ayumi says, in a snort, "Zera, putting any distrust aside for someone from a clan that she hates other than priestesses, that'll be the day."

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "I know, but Zera was ne…!" Just then, something hard was slammed onto Kenochi's head, making him yelp in pain, and everyone looks to see Zera, behind Kenochi with a not so pleased look on her face and her right fist connecting to her younger brother's head.

Zera says, with an annoyed snort, "Little brother, don't ever mention THAT day to anyone of these people." Zera glares at Miroku, Sango, and Shippo, who had their heads, hung low at her glare.

Koenma asks Zera, "I take it that you've heard everything, correct!"

Zera says, in a plain tone, "If you're assuming that I've heard that the worthless miko in her room and about you finding Milo, again, then yes, I've heard everything that had happen. Also, I happen to think that finding Milo would be a wise choice of action since I've also heard that she's the fifth 'Chosen Hanyou'."

Koenma says, with a nod, "Indeed. NekitaKariba is the reincarnation of the first Neko Hanyou, Milan and she was indeed much powerful. I'll tell you about her powers as soon as we receive her."

TK says, in a serious tone, "What a second, gang! There's Dartz and the Light of Destruction! They may try to get their hands on NekitaKariba and may use her too."

Zera says, in a deadly serious tone, "Dartz can try if he's suicidal. I'm not letting him get his hands on Milo. I'll be going to find her."

Kenochi says, after rubbing his head where Zera hit him, "You're not going alone, sis! Milo is like a sister to me too and I want to help find him."

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "Also, I'm allowing Kurama, Hiei, Kira, Karin, Ganryu, Genki, and Keisuke to join you two."

Kurama says, in a plain tone, "Yes, I do believe that will be a wise choice of action since we'll need Davis, TK, Jaden, Hikari, and Keiko here to fight off the Light of Destruction and the Orichalcos as well as the eventual Dark Signers."

Koenma says, in a plain tone, "I've noticed that Amaya isn't around here or at her room in the building where the guests will be staying as well as Masaru and Rita."

Sanosake says, in a plain tone, "I hope that they're getting into trouble since there's one person that wants Amaya's head in a platter."

(With the Orichalcos; sometime later)

Within Dartz's headquarters, we find the Orichalcos warriors assembled in front of Dartz when they were being called in.

Hotaru says, in a dark cold plain tone, "You called for us, sir."

Dartz says, in a plain tone, "Yes, I did, Miss Saotome. I have news for Miss Ishikawa as well as Lord Inuyasha and his sisters."

Melody asks, curiously, "What is it, sir?"

Dartz says, with an evil sly smile, "Do you remember your childhood friend, NekitaKariba?" Inuyasha and his sisters gasp in shock and Holly says, surprised, "You mean Milo!"

Naruto asks, curiously, "Who's Milo?"

Melody says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Like me and my sisters, here, NekitaKariba was a half demon! She was half-human, a quarter-tiger demon, and a quarter-cat demon."

Ranma says, in a fearful tone, "C-ca-ca…! You were friends with a c-c-c-ca-that thing that chase mice!"

Inuyasha says, in a dark cold snort, "A memory which I'd be glad to get rid of, thank you!"

Izayoi says, with a dark cold smile, "I remember her! She was the sweetest little thing! She was like another daughter to me."

Jordan asks, "What happened?"

Melody says, in a dark cold snarl, "After King Emma's thugs killed mom, kidnapped Holly, and almost killed Megumi, Inuyasha and I had to move with Zera and Kenochi since the village that we stayed threw us out and we couldn't stay with Milo since she was from the clan that hates us, dog demons, half or full."

Inuyasha says, in a dark cold angered tone, "When we went to her village of the Nekita before we met Kikyo for the first time to see her, the village wanted Melody and me to leave since we were dog demons, but we stood our ground and told them that we were Milo's friends, but they believed that to be a lie. Then, we saw Milo and she was glaring at us with disgust while stating that she didn't remember being friends with 'a bunch of nasty dogs' and helped the villagers to throw us out further away."

Megumi says, surprised, "Milo said those things!"

Melody says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Yeah and we didn't want to tell Zera about it since Zera would no doubt kill her since even though, we really didn't hate her, but thinking back I think we should have told Zera then, she'd make sure that she and her fucking clan pays for what they did to us. Mi…no NekitaKariba betrayed us and she needed to pay for what she's done."

Dartz says, with an evil sly smile, "Well, you may get that chance since I do believe that Prince Koenma has set up a plot to bring her here."

Inuyasha says, with a dark cold sly smile, "That's good so then, we can make that rotten cat pay for what she's done to us."

Holly says, in a dark cold serious tone, "I couldn't believe that NekitaKariba said those things, but that doesn't mean she can get away with it."

Dartz then tells Mayumi, "Miss Ishikawa, it seems that your brother and sister are here on the island."

Mayumi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "What are Masaru and Rita doing here?"

Light tells Mayumi, in a dark cold plain tone, "My guess is that they're trying to stop our plans."

Mayumi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "As if that's going to happen! Even my brother and sister can't stop me from getting revenge on that asshole, Shakuma Sakami!"

Hikaru says, with an evil sly smile, "And the same with Misaki! She can't stop me from getting revenge on that damned fox slut!"

Dartz tells Hikaru, with an evil sly smile, "I think that you'll be pleased, Mister Sato. Amaya Suzuki is all alone on the island, finding a way to take down our organization."

Hikaru says, in a dark cold serious tone, "She can try if she's suicidal! In fact, I think that I'll should that rotten backstabbing witch a lesson that she would never forget since I believe that what I did to her pathetic boyfriend and her worthless friends wasn't enough."

Dartz says, in an evil sly tone, "Then, go! I think you should get that chance, but don't seal her soul just yet, Mister Sato."

Hikaru says, with an evil sly grin, "Of course, not! I plan to make her suffer like she has done to me over those months."

Hotaru steps up and she tells Dartz, "Excuse me, sir, but I think that you may have a bit of a 'mouse problem'."

Dartz says, perplexed, "A mouse problem?"

Hotaru says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Yes! You see, these 'mice' may try to find information about your company and be used against you one day."

Ranma tells Hotaru, in a dark cold serious tone, "I think I know what kind of 'mouse problem' you're taking about, sis, and I may know who you're referring to!"

Inuyasha asks, curiously, "What are you guys talking about?"

Hotaru says, in a dark cold serious tone, "One of Akane's sisters, Nabiki Tendo, may have people snooping around your company and will probably find perfect blackmail!"

Nodoka says, in a dark cold plain tone, "My daughter is correct, sir! Kimiko's middle child has always been one of the real thorns in my son's and daughter's sides for a while."

Michael says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Sir, allow Tyler and I to take care of this problem!"

Tyler says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Yeah! We'll take care of those mice!"

Dartz says, with a plain tone, "Thank you, you two."

(Elsewhere on Academy Island; sometime later)

On another part of Duel Academy near the beach, we find Stacy Magellan with some of the garbage taken off of her, but her hair was a mess and she had a not so pleased look on her face.

Stacy thinks in her mind, angrily, "I can't believe that little creep, Sato, is ruining my life! It's like taking just one dork to ruin my life so easily that it's not even funny! I just wish that there's some way to get even with him for what he's done to me!" Soon after, Stacy looks over to see a familiar female figure walking cross from her which turns to be Amaya Suzuki, in her Goth attire.

Stacy says, surprised, "Is that Amaya! Last I've checked, she was wearing white and with those white freaks, the Society of Light. This island is getting too weird for me! First, Sato gets a new attitude and new tricks that totally overpowers the guys, Amaya is getting killed and bring brought back from the dead as well as taken back that weird Society of Light, and then I see her in that weird 'Goth' attire like some of the people on this island. I wonder what's going on here. It's like I'm in the 'Twilight Zone' here." On the meanwhile, Amaya turns to see Stacy, looking at her.

Amaya says, surprised, "Stacy, what are you doing here?"

Stacy says, in a plain tone, "Well, last I've checked that you're with the Society of Light!"

Amaya says, in a dark serious tone, "No way! Not with those freaks again!"

Stacy was taken back by Amaya's 'dark' tone and she says, surprised, "What's going on, Amaya? What's with the 'Goth' look?"

Amaya says, in a dark plain tone, "Let's just say I've gone through many changes, lately, and I've finally realized something." Just then, Amaya picked up a scent of something dark and evil coming. Amaya yells out to Stacy, seriously, "Stacy, get out of here! This is too dangerous!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "You got that right, bitch!" Amaya and Stacy turn to see Hikaru Sato with a dark cold harsh glare at the two girls.

Amaya says, lowly, "Hikaru…"

Stacy yells at Hikaru, annoyed, "What do you want now, Sato! Haven't you ruined my life enough for this time!"

Hikaru yells out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Buzz off, slut!" Hikaru sweeps the air around him, causing a strong wind to come and hits Stacy away, throwing her to the ground, knocking her out.

Amaya yells out, horrified, "Stacy!"

Hikaru says, with a dark cold sly smile, "You don't have to worry about her, yet, fox girl, since you're going to soon join her."

"Aquarius Eternal Engage!"

In a mixture of light blue and eerie green light, Hikaru had transform into his Eternal Warrior form, Eternal Aquarius.

In a flash of super-speed, Eternal Aquarius rushes over to Amaya and before she can react, Eternal Aquarius kicks her hard in the chin, throwing her high into the air. Eternal Aquarius then jumps into the air after Amaya, who was rubbing her chin where Eternal Aquarius kicked her and before she can defend herself, Eternal Aquarius appears to her left and kicks her left side, throwing her far away to another side of Academy Island far away from Stacy's unconscious form and she slams to the ground hard with a loud thud, causing a lot of smoke to appear from the crater.

Eternal Aquarius lands by a good foot away from the hole as Amaya slowly stands on her feet with many cuts and bruises on her clothes and face.

Amaya says, winching in pain, "Hi…Hikar…u?"

Eternal Aquarius says, with a dark cold sly grin, "I was worried that you won't take my threats to make you pay for betraying me too seriously with your whore friend in the area."

Amaya says, pleadingly, "Hikaru, please…don't do this…"

Eternal Aquarius says, dark cold tone, "Too late!" Eternal Aquarius fires a green energy blast at Amaya, only to have her dodge it, but the explosion throws her away causing her to scream as she flies in the air and hits the ground, causing her to yelp in pain.

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold plain tone, "You're the one, who asked for this."

Amaya slowly gets on her knees while looking at Eternal Aquarius and she says, groaning, "I don't want to hurt you!"

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold snort, "You're a little late on that, bitch!" Eternal Aquarius then disappears using his super-speed, rushes over to Amaya, kicking her in the chin, throwing her away from her and she rolled on the ground, and then landed on her right side. Amaya looks up to see Eternal Aquarius, coming down to her with his right foot extending towards her. Eternal Aquarius yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Die!"

Amaya barely dodges the stomp as it hits the ground cracks greatly from the impact and Eternal Aquarius fires an eerie green energy blast at Amaya. Amaya then jumps real high in the air to dodge the blast, but that proved to be a distraction, when Eternal Aquarius appears by front of her in the air and bashes her in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her, throwing her down. Amaya then tries to land on her feet, but the impact made her drag her feet across the ground. Eternal Aquarius appears in front of her and bashes her hard in the chin, throwing her into the air and she comes crashing down to the ground hard.

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Stop mocking me, fox! I know you're a Divine Soldier! Why don't you transform already!"

Amaya groans out in pain as she slowly stands on her feet and she thinks in her mind, while wiping blood from her mouth, "I can't transform, because I'll only hurt Hikaru even more! The others say that the only way to save Hikaru is to fight him with everything we have, but I can't…! Hikaru is my friend…well was my friend, but I can't fight him! I just can't!"

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold serious tone, "I'm not going to tell you this again…" Eternal Aquarius then produces a dark blue and eerie green aura around his body and yells out, in a dark cold strong tone filled with malice, "…HURRY UP AND TRANSFORM! I WANT TO CRUSH YOU WHEN YOU'RE AT YOUR BEST! I WANT NOTHING MORE THAN REVENGE! REVENGE FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO ME!"

Amaya gasps in shock as Eternal Aquarius jumps high into the sky and prepares his attack.

"Orichalcos Aquarius Freezing Fury!"

A huge green freezing wind was summoned from Eternal Aquarius's hands and was launched towards Amaya and she screams out in extreme pain and agony as the attack had ripped through her body, sending her body away across the ground with a sickening thud. Amaya slowly stands on her feet while groaning in pain as she's shown many cuts on herself from Eternal Aquarius's attack.

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly grin, "You couldn't possibly fight me in that pitiful form!"

Amaya looks up at Eternal Aquarius to see that his eyes were covered darkness, coldness, anger, and hatred pointing directly at her. Amaya says, weakly, "H…Hikaru, please…you've got to believe me! Dartz is only using you! Once he's done with you, I'll just discard you like garbage! I know that you may hate me, but think about what you'll do to everyone else, including your sister."

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold snort, "Sister? You mean Misaki Sato! Ha! She's one of those who's not needed here in this world and before I take your soul, I'm going to take away her soul! She's human and humans are nothing but horrible and disgusting creatures while it's the same for demon and half-demons like you!"

Amaya says, horrified, "You don't mean that! You would do that to your own sister!"

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold serious tone, "She doesn't understand me! She's trying to get in my way of my revenge! Destroying your reputations at our old school and sealing your worthless boyfriend's and friends' souls away wasn't enough! I want human beings to be clean out so this world can be pure as it once was before: a true paradise where no humans, demons, or backstabbing half-demons are around to pollute it!"

Amaya was horrified to hear this and she thinks in her mind, "The others…they were right…! If I don't stop Hikaru now, then the whole world will be in danger! If I really want to save Hikaru, then I have to fight him all I have! It's similar to where Davis and his friends had to fight Ken when he was the Digimon Emperor while he was controlled by the Dark Spore, Genki and his friends had to fight that Pixie monster from the Monster Rancher world to get her to see the error of her ways, and we're battling the Society of Light and the rest of the Orichalcos warriors with everything that we have. The others were right! In order to save the ones that we care and love, we have to knock a lot of sense into them!" Amaya wipes the blood from her mouth and she thinks, seriously, "I have to fight Hikaru if I want to save him!"

"Light Star Power Engage!"

Just then an 'explosion' of bright light and stars force Eternal Aquarius and cover his eyes somewhat as Amaya's clothes melt away and golden and silver stars with ribbons wrap around her body transforming into her Divine Warrior uniform in her fox hanyou form.

Divine Light Star yells out, in a strong tone, "Hikaru, I can't allow you to continue what you're doing to this planet! As long as you're still with Dartz, there's no convincing you! I will stop you!"

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold strong tone, "I'd love to see you try, traitor!"

Divine Light Star says, seriously, "I won't try! I will!" Divine Light Star disappears using her super-speed, rushes behind Eternal Aquarius and before he could react, Divine Light Star gives a powerful kick to his face, throwing him back as he hits a small cliff with a loud thud. Eternal Aquarius drags his feet to stop his fail as Divine Light Star lungs after him. Eternal Aquarius fires a bluish green blast at her, but Divine Light Star dodges it, taking him by surprise and kicks him to the stomach, hits the back of his neck with her right elbow, kicks him in the face, goes over him and kicks him in the chin hard, throwing him a bit, but wasn't enough to throw him away. Soon after, Divine Light Star prepares for her own attack.

"Hikari Light Bomb!"

Divine Light Star fires a large golden ball of energy at Eternal Aquarius and it hits him while he screams out in pain as it causes a huge explosion that covers nearly the whole area, covering him in smoke and dust. When the smoke and dust clears out, Eternal Aquarius was nowhere to be found.

Divine Light Star yells out, surprised, "He's gone! I didn't mean to take it that far!"

Just then, Eternal Aquarius's voice calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "As if, you could even kill me, wench!"

Divine Light Star looks up to see Eternal Aquarius in the air with an evil sly smile on his lips as well as few burn marks on himself. Divine Light Star says, in a surprised tone, "How could you have survive that!"

Eternal Aquarius yells out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Give me a break! That attack would never kill me! However, it did force me to take this up a notch!" Soon after, Eternal Aquarius Orichalcos Curse Mark activates and green marks appear all over his face and hands, placing him to Stage One.

Divine Light Star says, in a worried tone, "Oh no! Not that!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly smile, "That's right, witch! I take it that somehow those dorks that you're with already know about our Orichalcos Curse Marks from either you or that backstabbing miko when you two got your memories from the time that you were in the Society of Light. At Stage One, I rival low S-class apparitions and that's pretty much more than you can handle!" Eternal Aquarius 'disappears' and rushes towards Divine Light Star, bashes her hard in the jaw, throwing her away from him. Eternal Aquarius flies over to where he's above her while powering up another bluish and green energy blast, but Divine Light Star powers up a golden energy blast and the two blasts had cancelled each other out while causing a huge explosion. Divine Light Star backs away from the smoke and lands on her feet with Eternal Aquarius flying towards her with a painful head butt to Divine Light Star's forehead, but she remains strong as they throw their right fists at each other with Divine Light Star punching Eternal Aquarius's stomach and Eternal Aquarius hitting Divine Light Star's left cheek, at the same time, throwing them away from each other a bit. Divine Light Star spins around and throws a kick to Eternal Aquarius, but he ducks his head, though he didn't have enough time to counter the other foot coming to his stomach, knocking the wind out of him. The two former friends land on the ground and Eternal Aquarius lunges after Divine Light Star, sending many kicks to her head, but Divine Light Star keeps block every last one of them, which lasted for a while, until Eternal Aquarius spins around Divine Light Star's defenses to deliver a boot to the head. However, Divine Light Star goes back to avoid it and hands on her right hand, then delivers a kick to Eternal Aquarius's head, throwing him back a bit. Eternal Aquarius then fires another energy blast at Divine Light Star, but she throws it away, and Divine Light Star then fires another golden energy blast at Eternal Aquarius, but he does the same thing, which results into an energy blast war between the two. At that moment, our heroes and heroines arrive on the scene.

Davis yells out, seriously, "There she is!"

Cologne yells out, strongly, "That fool! She knows not to engage with one of the Orichalcos warriors! Hanyou or not! She doesn't stand a chance against them!"

Hikari says, in a serious tone, "We have to get Amaya out of there! With the stories from Misaki on what Amaya has done to Hikaru with the wrapped version of Dartz's words, Hikaru would want nothing more than Amaya's head!" Back to the fight, a large golden energy ball crash into the ground, causing a huge explosion and Divine Light Star flies away from the explosion then, slams her left knee to Eternal Aquarius's face hard, knocking him back a bit, but he grabs Divine Light Star's left ankle and throws her to the ground, face first. As Divine Light Star gets up on her feet, Eternal Aquarius fires another bluish green blast at her. Divine Light Star yelps in shock, then places her arms to her face, crossed as the blast hits her hard, causing a huge explosion. As the smoke clears out and Divine Light Star lowers her arms, Eternal Aquarius's left arm slams her neck, throwing her out of the smoke and to a nearby cliff hard, with a loud 'thud' cracking the ground around where she hits.

Kira yells out, seriously, "That's it! I'm going in there to help!"

Just then, Divine Light Star's voice calls out, "Kira, don't!" Everyone looks to see Divine Light Star who had her clothes torn, multiple cuts and bloody gashes on her body, slowly getting on her feet.

Eternal Aquarius turns to see our heroes and heroines and he says, in a dark cold plain tone, "I didn't think that you people would be here!"

Matt yells out, seriously, "That's right! We always here for our friends!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Friends! Oh right! I remember! You know nothing about friendship after what you and that carrot top bitch did to Tai! If that's your idea of friendship, then who needs enemies!" Matt and Sora winch at that Eternal Aquarius's harsh words.

Misaki looks at the markings on her brother's face and body and she thinks in her mind, horrified, "Oh Kami, what has that monster done to my brother!"

Kurama says, in a serious tone, "Amaya has gotten too much damage on herself! If this continues, she will die."

Keiko yells out, seriously, "Amaya, pull back! He's way too dangerous!"

Divine Light Star says, in a serious tone, "And I'm the one, who caused Hikaru getting brainwashed! If I can manage to defeat him, then I can get Hikaru back from the Orichalcos!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly grin, "As if you can beat me!" Eternal Aquarius then disappears using his super-speed, rushes over to Divine Light Star, kicks her in the chin and throwing her into the air.

Yuka yells out, horrified, "No, Amaya!" Divine Light Star summersaults in the air to stop herself and she lunges after Eternal Aquarius, who was charging after her in the air. As the two clashes in the air, they start to exchange a barrage of fists and kicks to each other while the rest of our heroes and heroines watches with worry. Divine Light Star manages to get in two punches and kicks to Eternal Aquarius's face, but Eternal Aquarius manages to give his former best friend and hard kick, throwing her away from him. Divine Light Star stops in midair and fires a golden blast at Eternal Aquarius, which hits and causes a huge explosion.

As the smoke clears out, Divine Light Star thinks in her mind, solemnly, "I'm so sorry, Hikaru, but this is tearing me apart to do this! But, it's the only way for me to save you!" When the smoke disappears, Eternal Aquarius charges after Divine Light Star, taking her by surprise, bashes every part of her body, elbows her hard in the face and left side. Divine Light Star quickly recovers from the attack and kicks her former best friend's cheek, hard, and then goes around for another kick, but misses, which gives her a kick in the chest by Eternal Aquarius's left leg. Soon enough, the two begins to engage a huge fist fight in the air while our heroes and heroines were watching.

Kiba says, in a plain tone, "So far so good! Amaya seems to be holding her own with Hikaru in Stage one."

Sasuke says, in a serious tone, "But if the Orichalcos Curse Mark is anything like one of Orochimaru's Curse Marks, then Hikaru is only toying with her. Once it reaches stage two…!" Back in the fight, Eternal Aquarius lunges after Divine Light Star, but she goes up in the air and drops down at her former friend, then hits him hard, throwing him to the down to the ground, with a huge crashing thud. Soon after, Eternal Aquarius bursts out of the ground and went into mid-air with many cuts and bruises with his uniform slightly dirty and cut.

Divine Light Star yells out, shocked, "What! Again!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with a dark cold sly grin, "What part of 'I'm not the same weakling that I was once was before' didn't you comprehend, traitor! I can't be beaten by you anymore! And to prove it!" Soon after, Eternal Aquarius's Orichalcos Curse Mark glows again, turning his skin eerie green and his eyes yellow.

Our heroes and heroines gasps in shock at this and Hikari yells out, horrified, "Hikaru's energy skyrocketed!"

Genki says, stunned, "Oh man! I feel it too!"

Sasuke says, in a serious tone, "He's reached Stage two!"

Misaki says, in a horrified tone, "What did that bastard do to my brother! He's some kind of monster!"

Divine Light Star says, in a horrified tone, "What! What has that monster done to you!"

Eternal Aquarius yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Nothing! He just gave me the power to deal with backstabbing traitors like you!" Eternal Aquarius rushes after Divine Light Star with greater speed.

Divine Light Star says, in a serious tone, "I know that I'm going to regret this, but this isn't the time to conserve energy!" Divine Light Star's body then glows golden as she prepares her attack.

"Hikari Dragon Flash!"

Divine Light Star then fires a golden blast, shaped as an Asian Dragon, at Eternal Aquarius, stops his attack as the golden dragon roars as it catches him in his mouth and then explodes, in a golden light, forcing everyone to close their eyes from the blast. As the light dim down, Divine Light Star lands on her feet and collapse to the ground on her knees and hands, panting in exhaustion.

Ayumi yells out, horrified, "No Amaya!"

Lalamon says, in a serious tone, "She's exhausted! She has nothing left!"

Hiei says, in a plain tone, "And it was a foolish attempt since it wasn't enough to put him down."

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "You've got to be kidding me! We saw that blast hit him! It has to hurt!"

As soon as the smoke clears, we see Eternal Aquarius with more burn marks on his face and body and with an evil smile on his lips.

Divine Light Star looks up and she says, weakly, "You've got to be kidding me!"

Eri yells out, surprised, "That blast wasn't enough to bring her down!"

Kira yells at Divine Light Star, seriously, "Amaya, we're coming there to help!"

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "I don't think so, Urameshi!" Just then, a large invisible doom of dark energy appears around Eternal Aquarius and Divine Light Star as well as large piece of land.

Kuwabara yells out, shocked, "What the…!" Everyone looks up to see Sestuna, Akira, and Divine Fiery Pyre in the air with evil sly smiles on their lips.

Keiko yells out, seriously, "What are you three doing!"

Sestuna says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Sorry, Yukimura! We're not allowing any of you interfere with this fight! The fox whore is going to get what she deserves!"

Akira says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Besides, the world is already rotten with one poor excuse of a hanyou, namely your brother, why should have another?"

Divine Light Star slowly stands on her feet while panting and she thinks in her mind, weakly, "I don't think I have anything left to defend myself!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil smile, "Now, how to destroy you!" Eternal Aquarius then places his hands to ninja hand signs and he calls out, "Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Soon after, 100 Eternal Aquarius Shadow Clones appears around the original in mid-air.

Jiraiya yells out, shocked, "That's Naruto's technique!"

Kakashi says, in a serious tone, "It seems that Naruto has taught him that jutsu too!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly grin, "The pervert toad sage is correct, fox slut! Now, you'll soon get what you deserve!" Eternal Aquarius and his Shadow Clones then fires a barrage of eerie green energy blast all around Divine Light Star, exploding at contact. Divine Light Star screams out in extreme pain and agony as she was hit with the explosion and she falls to the ground on her stomach as the shooting stops.

Hikari yells out, horrified, "Amaya!" Soon after, Eternal Aquarius and his Shadow Clones land on the ground, surrounding the fallen Divine Light Star.

Eternal Aquarius says, with a dark cold cruel smile walking over to Divine Light Star's fallen body, "Well, well, well! You know about karma, huh, Suzuki." Eternal Aquarius then kicks Divine Light Star's side hard, causing her to turn around on her back. Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold plain tone, "This is how I felt when you and your band of misfits came to me when no one came to even lift a finger to help. I felt helpless and frightened on what plans that you freaks were going to do to me!" Eternal Aquarius then stomps onto his former best friend's chest, causing her to groan in pain and Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold plain tone while stomping onto Divine Light Star, "This is how I felt everyday when you and your friends tormenting me! Now, I'm going to return that feeling to you, a thousand times over and more!" Eternal Aquarius then kicks Divine Light Star's body in the air while she groans in pain as Eternal Aquarius and his Shadow Clones went after her 'flying' form to deliver more physical abuse towards her.

Ino says, horrified, "This is horrible!"

Kira aims her right index finger as it glows bright blue and she yells out, "Spirit Gun!" Kira fires her Spirit Gun at the barrier, but it had no effect.

Sestuna says, with an evil smile, "You're wasting your time and energy, Urameshi. This barrier is automatically energy blast proof and that goes double for your strength! In other words, this barrier can't be destroyed by those with Super S-class strength, even combined!"

Our heroes and heroines gasps in shock and horror and Hikari yells out, angrily, "That's not fair!"

Akira says, with a dark cold snort, "Who cares! The bottom line is that Hikaru will finally get his revenge on that backstabbing fox!"

Kuwabara yells out, seriously, "I don't think so! A group of fighters ganging up on a defenseless girl has no honor no matter what the cause is!" Kuwabara then summons his Jigen Tou Spirit Sword and he says, with a sly grin, "Let's see how your barrier stands up to my Jigen Tou Spirit Sword!" Kuwabara charges towards the barrier and strikes it hard, but it has no effect. Kuwabara yells out, shocked, "What the…!"

Sestuna says, in a dark cold sly tone, "Oh did I forget to mention that not even the moron's Jigen Tou Spirit Sword has any effect on our barrier."

Kuwabara yells out, shocked, "What!"

Kurama says, in a serious tone, "They knew about Kuwabara's powers since they stole his DNA with their Celestial Embodiment Kekkai Genkai."

Genki says, worriedly, "This is bad!" On the meanwhile, Divine Light Star was thrown to the ground hard with a loud thud after getting bashed around by Eternal Aquarius and his Shadow Clones. Right now, Divine Light Star's clothes were torn in many places and she had cuts and bruises on her legs and exposed arms. Soon after, Eternal Aquarius and his Shadow Clones all land around her.

Eternal Aquarius says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Now, that was fun! But now I think it's time to finish you off!"

Divine Light Star thinks in her mind, weakly, "I don't…I don't think I have the strength to stand! I guess that this is it! I'll never get the chance to save Hikaru now! I'll never get the chance to tell him that I'm sorry for ever leaving him!"

Ryoga yells out, horrified, "No! He's going for the kill!"

Misaki calls out, pleadingly, "Hikaru, stop! You can't kill her in cold blood! I know that she's betrayed you, but this won't solve anything!"

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold serious tone while preparing for his attack as well as his Shadow Clones, "This is the end! Orichalcos Aquarius Freezing Fu…!" Just then, Eternal Aquarius's Orichalcos Curse Mark glows bright green, causing him to scream out in extreme pain as his attack cancels out completely.

Akira yells out, perplexed, "What's happening!"

Misaki says, in a worried tone, "What's going on! What's happening to Hikaru!"

Eternal Aquarius screams out in extreme pain as he falls on his knees and his Shadow Clones disappear in a puff of smoke as Eternal Aquarius lost concentration to control the jutsu while he was in pain. Eternal Aquarius says, in a strained tone while holding his glowing curse mark, "Wha…what's happening to me…!"

Sasuke says, seriously, "It's the Curse Mark! It's causing Hikaru so much pain because he allowed the fight to drag on!"

Misaki calls out, horrified, "No Hikaru!"

Divine Light Star looks at Eternal Aquarius howling in great pain and she says, horrified, "Hikaru! What's happening!" Divine Light Star tries to move towards Eternal Aquarius, but she couldn't since she was also in pain.

Eternal Aquarius says, groaning, "What's causing me so much pain!" Eternal Aquarius drops to his right side while crying in pain.

Divine Light Star quickly gets onto her hands and knees and crawls towards her former best friend while yelling out, "Don't worry, Hikaru! I'm here for you!" Just as Divine Light Star touches him, dark violet electricity surrounding the pained Eternal Aquarius shocks her causing her to yelp in pain and moves her hand away.

Just then, a dark violet energy blast was fired at Divine Light Star and it threw her away from Eternal Aquarius as it hits. Then, Sestuna, Akira, and Divine Fiery Pyre appear around Eternal Aquarius, who then transforms back to Hikaru as he loses consciousness. Divine Fiery Pyre places Hikaru in her arms and she says, in a dark cold plain tone, "He's okay! He just needs some rest!"

Divine Light Star yells out, strongly, "Drop him now!"

Sestuna says, in a dark cold snort, "Buzz off, bitch!" Sestuna then shots a dark violet energy blast at Divine Light Star, throwing her away a good 20 feet.

Keiko yells out, horrified, "Amaya!"

Sestuna says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Let's get out of here!" Just as the Orichalcos warriors were preparing to leave, Divine Light Star tries to stand while forgetting about her injuries and lunges after them.

Divine Light Star yells out, strongly, "I'm not going to allow you three to take him away from me!"

Akira says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Sorry! Not going to happen! Later!" With that the Orichalcos girls left with the unconscious Hikaru with them as Divine Light Star went through their afterimages and fell to the ground, face first.

Misaki yells out, horrified, "Hikaru!"

Divine Light Star yells out, in a real solemn tone and as loud as she could, "NO! HIKARU COME BACK!" Soon after, the barrier left by the Orichalcos warriors had disappeared and our heroes and heroines rushes over to her. Divine Light Star punches the ground while leaving a dent on it and she yells out, solemnly, "Damn it! I was so close!"

When our heroes and heroines got to Divine Light Star, Ukyo asks, concerned, "Amaya, are you okay!"

Divine Light Star says, solemnly, "No! I was so close getting to him, but I couldn't! Now, Dartz has him still! It's not fair!" Divine Light Star then starts to sob solemnly.

Tsunade says, in a serious tone, "Let's get her to the Slifer Red dorm! She needs medical attention right away!" Soon enough, Hikari and Kira brings the solemn Divine Light Star to her feet and they head back to the Slifer Red dorm. Unknown to them, we find a white-clad Shakuma Sakami, fully recovered, in a great distance with a cold serious glare.

Shakuma Sakami thinks in his mind, in a cold serious tone, "Those Orichalcos Curse Marks seem to cause extreme pain to the ones who has them! Which would mean that Mayumi would have them! I have to save Mayumi, but in order for that to happen, I need one of the Chosen Duelists on the nonbelievers' side! I can't go after Keiko Yukimura since she's too powerful for me to take on! I remember what she did to Amaya when she was with us and with that 'other half' of hers, the 'Supreme Princess', she may even kill me! I have to go for a 'Chosen Duelist' on the nonbelievers' side, who's even weaker than she is, but just as strong! And I think I know who!"

(Back at Dartz's headquarters; sometime later)

Within the Orichalcos headquarters, we find the Orichalcos warriors assembled in front of Dartz with the exception of Hikaru, Mayumi, Hotaru, Light, Izayoi, Nodoka, and Holly, which happen to be looking at Hikaru's injuries while Melody and Megumi told them what had happened with Hikaru's Curse Mark.

Naruto says, surprised, "You mean the Curse Marks went haywire on Hikaru!"

Melody says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Yeah and if Hikaru had de-transformed, then the power of the Curse Mark would have killed him. The Curse Mark has done some damages to Hikaru's body since he used it for an extend amount of time."

Dartz says, in a serious tone, "This is indeed troublesome turn in events, my friends!"

Daisuke says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Which meant that if we had fought against those dorks with our Curse Marks activated to stage two, then we would have been in deep trouble!"

Hiroshi says, in a dark cold annoyed tone, "Now, what? We were counting on them to teach the Society of Dorks and those other dweebs a lesson on what happens when you mess with us!"

Ranma says, in a dark cold plain tone, "I guess that we'll have to be real careful then!"

(At the 'White Dorm'; at the same time)

Within the main hallway of the 'White Dorm', we find our SOL controlled heroes and heroines assembled there with other SOL members with Yuka 2, Sayuri, Ray, Hilary, Kelly, Yolei, Ken, Tenten, and Hinata telling Yusuke, Sakura, Kari, Akane, Chazz, and Alexis about the threat that the Orichalcos controlled Hotaru Saotome had said.

Kari says, worriedly, "As if didn't have enough problems alright with the Orichalcos having the satellite keys and Kagome gone to the nonbelievers! Now, the Orichalcos has their sights on Akane!"

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "I don't care what happens to me as long as I get Ranma back from that creep, Dartz!"

Sakura says, in a cold serious tone, "With that, we have to be real careful!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, coldly, "Hey guys!" Everyone turns to see Reginald Haga and Rose Tenku walking towards them with the SOL controlled heroes and heroines secretly give them cold annoyed glares while Yusuke was giving them cold angered glares.

Alexis says, in a cold serious tone, "What's up?"

Reginald says, in a cold annoyed tone, "What's up? We find out that Kagome went back to the nonbelievers after that damned Orichalcos half-breed defeated her!"

Chazz says, in a cold snort, "Yeah! We know that! Those Orichalcos freaks set up a trap!"

Rose tells Yusuke, in a cold plain tone, "Yusuke, we're so sorry to hear that happening to your cousin and to make matters worse, that fucking backstabbing bitch, Yukimura, may use her to get you away from the Light!"

Yusuke clenches his fists in cold anger and he thinks in his mind, in a cold angered tone, "You fucking bitch! It's taking everything in my willpower to not to kill you or Haga as well as your fucking boyfriend for what you did us! Just keep insulting Keiko like that, it'll be much sweeter when we have the last laugh!"

Sakura tells Rose and Reginald, in a cold serious tone, "We're working on getting Kagome back to us, but we need to get back our satellite keys from those Orichalcos jerks! Whatever they have planned with them, we don't want to find out!"

Just then, two female SOL members rush over to them and one of them says, in a cold serious tone, "We have a problem!"

Ray asks, curiously, "What is it?"

The second SOL member says, in a cold serious tone, "Shakuma Sakami! He's going to challenge one of the 'Chosen Duelists' to duel and see the Light!"

The SOL members gasp in shock and terror and Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "It doesn't take a detective to know where he's going to duel!"

Alexis says, in a cold annoyed tone, "Damn it! Didn't he learn what happened with Amaya when Keiko dueled her! He's a glutton for punishment if he's planning on taking her on!"

Chazz says, in a cold serious tone, "We better find that dork before he gets us into more trouble!"

Yolei tells Rose and Reginald, in a cold serious tone, "You guys stay here! With Keiko with the nonbelievers, she'll no doubt try to kill you!"

Reginald says, in a cold snarl, "Don't worry, Yolei! I just wish that rotten witch just disappears, permanently! I mean I had to suffer feeling that two-timing wench's lips on mine! It took me five days worth of showering and rinsing my mouth with ten mouthwashes to get the rotten female Casanova's stink off of me! Yuck! Gross! I felt like I was going to puke at least hundred times over! Less I see that witch, the better!"

Yusuke thinks in his mind, in a cold enraged tone, "Oh just keep it up, asshole! I'm going to enjoy making you suffer!" Soon enough, the SOL controlled heroes and heroines rushes out of the door and towards the direction of the Slifer Red dorm.

(Back with our heroes and heroines; sometime later)

In front of the Slifer Red dorm, we find our heroes and heroines assembled there with Amaya Suzuki, in her human form and fully healed by Yukina, on her hands and knees with a solemn look and Masaru and Rita Ishikawa gaining a 'dark' look.

Masaru Ishikawa's light blue hair was now pitch black with red highlights and a black leather choker around his neck. He was wearing a black shirt underneath a dark blue jacket, black pants, black fighting gloves covering his hands, and black sneakers with flame designs.

Rita Ishikawa's long light blue hair was now pitch black with dark violet highlights while a black leather choker was around her neck and her lips were dark violet. She was also wearing dark violet earrings and a dark blue sleeveless shirt under a black jacket with black fingerless gloves with dark red fingernails, brown shorts that goes half-way down her upper legs, black shocks, and dark red sneakers.

Amaya punches the ground hard while making a dent with her super-strength and she says, solemnly, "I was so close on getting Hikaru back from that pig! It's not fair! With all my Divine Warrior and demonic powers, I should have won, but it wasn't enough!"

Hikari tells Amaya, in a plain tone, "Hey, no one said that it would be easy to get back our friends from both the Orichalcos and the Society of Light!"

Amaya says, in a solemn tone, "But still! I wanted to be the one, who brings Hikaru back, since it was my fault that Hikaru was even there in the first place! I've been a horrible friend to him, so it should be my responsibility to bring him back!" Amaya then sobs greatly and she says, solemnly, "But what good am I if I can't save my friend back from that creep!"

Soon enough, Misaki walks over to Amaya, knees down, grabs Amaya's hair to make her face Misaki, and slaps her hard.

Misaki says, in an angered snarl, "You know! Ever since I've heard from Hikaru that you left him for that loser, Yamamoto, I've always wanted to do that and more to you when you left him. Right now, you sound like you're actually giving up as of you don't regret abandoning him!"

Amaya yells out, seriously, "I do regret leaving him! I really do! But, I was so close on getting him back!"

Kai says, in a serious tone, "The only way of you getting your friend back is by getting stronger."

Davis says, in a serious tone, "Yeah! Right now, TK, Genki, and I as well as Keiko, Hikari, and Kira aren't strong enough to take on Inuyasha and his family as well as Ranma and his family as long as they still hold those Curse Marks."

Zera says, in a plain tone, "Indeed. However, we'll need to have a suitable trainer, like Kurama, since he's the only kitsune with any fighting skills."

Koenma says, with a plain tone, "I think that's a good idea, Zera."

Kurama says, with a nod, "Then, it's agreed!"

Shippo yells out, annoyed, "What about me! I'm a kitsune too!"

Zera says, in a snort, "Like I said, the only kitsune with ANY fighting skills! Your specialty involves running away and irritation, which are completely useless at this point like your presence, right now!"

Shippo shrinks away from Zera's glare and Sango says, scolding, "Zera, that wasn't called for!"

Zera says, in a plain tone, "I'm only saying the truth! It's not my fault that the kit can't take criticism too well. Besides, shouldn't you people be 'consulting' that useless miko friend of yours! Obliviously, your presence isn't needed here at this point since we got her back."

Kenochi says, scolding, "Zera, what was totally out of order! I know that you're still angry with Miroku, Sango, and Shippo, but they didn't know that Kikyo froze Inuyasha!"

Miroku says, in a plain tone, "I still take part of the blame for Inuyasha's brainwashing, Zera. We shouldn't have said those horrible things to Inuyasha, but understand that Kagome was our friend and sometimes Inuyasha may hurt her, but we should have known that it was unintentional."

Zera says, in a serious tone, "I say that you're too late, monk! I've already made up my mind about Inuyasha's future and it will never again involve you people, especially that brat since she obviously doesn't deserve him! That case is closed and I don't want to hear anymore from it from you people ever again! Now, weren't we planning on getting Milo here?"

Koenma says, with a nod, "Yes! We were! We're planning on having Zera, Kenochi, Kira, Hiei, Kurama, Karin, Ganryu, Genki, and Keisuke going to the land of Nekita with Zera, leading the expedition."

Ukyo steps up and she asks, curiously, "Excuse me? I was wondering if it's not too much trouble if I can join with you guys."

Koenma says, looking at Zera, "That would on Zera's call, Ukyo."

Zera says, in a plain tone, "That would be a good idea, Ukyo. With your Byakugan, we'll cover much ground faster."

Just then our heroes and heroines that are spiritual aware or can sense chakra sense something and Kenochi says, in a serious tone, "You may want to hold on the trip, Lord Koenma."

Rin asks, curiously, "Why's that, Lord Kenochi?"

Genki says, in a dark snarl, "Oh great! We got company, gang!"

Sesshomaru says, in a serious tone, "The scent of one under the control of the Light of Destruction is here while others are not far off."

Hassleberry yells out, in a dark annoyed tone, "Not again!"

Yuka says, in a dark annoyed tone, "Those geeks have a real talent of appearing in a very bad time!"

Everyone looks towards the source to see Shakuma Sakami, with an Academy Duel Disk that has a dueling deck inside attached to his left wrist, walk up to everyone.

Masaru yells out, in a dark angered tone, "You!"

Shakuma says, in a surprised tone, "Masaru! Rita! What are you two doing here! Don't tell me that you embraced that nasty 'dark' power!"

Rita yells out, in a dark nasty tone, "What does it look like, geek! Fixing the mistake that you alone caused! My sister, Mayumi, is brainwashed by another sadistic asshole because of what you did!"

Shakuma says, in a cold serious tone, "I know! That's why I came to duel one of the 'Chosen Duelists' here!"

Keiko says, in a dark serious tone, "You came for me!"

Shakuma says, in a cold plain tone, "Not you!" Shakuma points at Genki and he says, coldly, "I came for him, Genki Sakura!"

Genki says, in a dark plain tone, "Why me, especially?"

Shakuma says, in a cold serious tone, "Yeah! I came for you since you may be the one only that can save Mayumi and bring her into the Light!"

Keisuke says, in a dark serious tone, "I think I may know why this white dork is so interested with Genki! Since he's so close with one of the Chosen Hanyous under Dartz's control, Holly, he may use them to bring Mayumi to their control."

Genki yells out, in a dark annoyed tone, "Is that true!"

Shakuma says, in a cold serious tone, "That's right! With you and your half-demon friend under the Light, we will get Mayumi back from that asshole, Dartz."

Zera says, in a deadly snarl, "It seems that the Society of Light members are gluttons for punishment! I'm sure the miko must have told you what will happen if I see anyone messing with one of my family members!"

Genki yells out, in a dark strong tone, "As if I'm letting you white freaks anywhere near my friend!"

Masaru yells out, in a dark angered tone, "Oh no! You're not getting anywhere near my sister, twerp!"

Tiara yells out, in an angered snarl, "What was that?"

Davis says, nervously, "He didn't mean it that way, Tiara!"

Genki takes out his Academy style duel disk, attaches it to his left wrist, and he says, in a dark serious tone, "If you want a duel, freak, you got one!" The two of them activate their duel disks, their life-points counters display 8000 life-points each, and they draw five cards from their decks.

"Game on!" Genki and Shakuma yell out in unison as their duel begins.

Starting Scores:

Shakuma: 8000

Genki: 8000

Shakuma says, drawing his card, "I'll go first!" Shakuma then says, putting a card into the spell/trap slot, "I activate Graceful Charity! Now, I can draw three new cards as long as I discard two!" Shakuma draws three cards from his deck, discards two to the graveyard slot, puts a card onto the duel disk, and he calls out, "I summon V-Tiger Jet in attack mode!" Soon after, V-Tiger Jet (1600/1800) appears on the field in attack mode. Shakuma sends two cards into the spell/trap slots and he calls out, in a cold plain tone, "Finally, I'll place two face-down cards and end my turn!"

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, "Shakuma!" Everyone looks to see our heroes' and heroines' 'former' friends, allies, friends, and/or loved ones in the Society of Light assemble.

Ukyo says, with a dark snort, "The whole 'Geek Patrol' is here, gang!"

Max says, darkly, "Just what we didn't want to see!"

Chazz yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Hey! That's not Yukimura that he's dueling!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "He must believe that if he targets Sakura and use him to bring one of Inuyasha's sisters, Holly, into the Light, then he'll be able to save Mayumi Ishikawa from Dartz's control."

Genki says, drawing his card, "As if that's going to happen!" Just then the whole area is engulfed in darkness and shadows.

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

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

Genki says, with a dark sly grin, "Oh, yes, again, geek!" Soon after, the ground that the two duelists were on transforms into glass platforms and Genki says, with a dark sly grin, "Now, there's no escape once the Shadow Game has started. I'm sure that you know how the game works, every time you lose life-points, you get a shock to the system!"

Shakuma says, in a cold annoyed tone, "And whenever that happens, you guys don't feel anything!"

Genki says, putting a card onto the duel disk, "Thanks for me to know and you to find out, dork! I summon Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus!" Soon after, a large sapphire comes to the field and transforms into Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus (1800/1200) in attack mode. Just then Sapphire Pegasus' horn glows, a card comes out of Genki's deck, and he says, taking the card into his hand, "Thanks to my Pegasus' ability, I can put one Crystal Beast in my spell and trap zones. And I choose my Ruby Carbuncle!" Genki puts the card in his spell/trap slots and a jewel of cobalt appears in Genki's spell/trap zones. Genki calls out, in a dark serious tone, "Now, Sapphire Pegasus, attack with Sapphire Tornado!" Sapphire Tornado launches a huge wind at V-Tiger Jet.

Shakuma says, pushing a button on his duel disk, "I activate my Spellbinding Circle trap card!" One of Shakuma's face-down cards is revealed to be the Spellbinding Circle trap card and Sapphire Pegasus becomes entrapped in a magical binding circle. Shakuma says, with a cold smile, "Your horse is now trapped within my Spellbinding Circle! Not only am I safe, your monster can't attack and it loses seven hundred attack points!" Sapphire Pegasus' stats then drop down from 1800/1200 to 1100/1200, thanks to Shakuma's trap card.

Genki says, in a dark annoyed snarl, "You got lucky, freak! Go!"

Shakuma says, drawing his card, "It's not luck! It's destiny which you will learn first hand!" Shakuma pushes a button on his duel disk and he calls out, "I activate my facedown card, Roll Out!" Another one of Shakuma's face down cards is revealed to be Roll Out and Shakuma says, in a cold plain tone, "Now, thanks to this card, I can bring back a union type monster from my graveyard and it's the one of the cards that I've discarded with Graceful Charity, W-Wing Catapult!" Just then, W-Wing Catapult (1300/1500) appears on the field. Shakuma says, in a cold strong tone, "Now, I'll combine them together to create VW-Tiger Catapult!" The two mechanical monsters shoot up in the air and combined themselves to be VW-Tiger Catapult (2000/2100) in attack mode. Shakuma says, putting another card on the duel disk, "Next, I summon X-Head Cannon!" X-Head Cannon (1800/1500) appears beside VW-Tiger Catapult in attack mode. Shakuma says, in a cold serious tone, "Now, X-Head Cannon, attack his winged horse!" X-Head Cannon fires its two blasts at Sapphire Pegasus and Sapphire Pegasus cries out in pain as it was destroyed, while Genki is shocked by the dark lightning from the platform, but doesn't cry out in pain as he loses 700 life-points. Then, a large sapphire appears next to the ruby crystal. Shakuma calls out, in a cold strong tone, "Now, Tiger Catapult, attack with Heat Seeker Blitz!" Tiger Catapult fires a barrage of missiles at Genki, hitting him hard and he loses 2000 more life-points in one shot causing the dark lighting to come and shock him, but he doesn't cry in pain again.

Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "Sorry, freak, but you can't hurt me!"

Shakuma says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "We'll see! I'll end with this!"

Current Score:

Shakuma: 8000

Genki: 5300

Genki draws his card and he says, darkly, "It's my turn!" Genki says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "First, I play Crystal Promise! Now, I can summon a Crystal Beast from my spell and trap zones and I choose my Ruby Carbuncle!" The ruby glows bright red and transforms into Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle (300/300) in defense mode. Genki says, with a dark plain tone, "Now, my other Crystal Beast, Sapphire Pegasus, can come out and play thanks to Ruby's ability!" Soon enough, Ruby Carbuncle's tail glows red and shoots a beam of red light at the sapphire, transforming it to Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus (1800/1200) in defense mode. Genki says, in a dark plain tone, "And thanks to Pegasus' effect, I can then bring a Crystal Beast from my deck and place it to my spell and trap zone!" Soon after, a card comes out from Genki's deck as Sapphire Pegasus' horn glows and Genki puts the card into the spell/trap slot as a large topaz appears in Genki's spell/trap zone and he says, in a dark plain tone while putting a card onto the duel disk, "And I choose my Topaz Tiger! Now, I summon forth my Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle!" Soon after, a large emerald appears on the field and transforms into Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle (600/2000) in defense mode. Genki says, in a dark plain tone, "I end my turn!"

Shakuma says, drawing his card, "It's my turn!" Shakuma says, putting a card onto the duel disk, "I summon Z-Metal Tank in attack mode!" Z-Metal Tank (1500/1300) comes to the field in attack mode. Shakuma says, discarding a card from his hand, "Don't think that you've built yourself a good defense from me! I'll activate my Tiger Catapult's effect, by sending a card from my hand, I can switch your turtle to attack mode!" Just then, Emerald Turtle is switched to attack mode with a fearful look on his face and Shakuma yells out, in a cold strong tone, "Tiger Catapult, turn that turtle into soup with Heat Seeker Blitz!" Tiger Catapult fires another barrage of missiles at Emerald Turtle.

Emerald Turtle says, mentally and in a geeky male tone, "Oh, boy! This is really going to hurt!" The missiles hit Emerald Turtle, destroying him, and Genki loses 1400 life-points as the dark lightning shocks him, but he doesn't cry out in pain again. Soon enough, the piece of emerald appears next to the topaz piece in Genki's spell/trap slot.

Shakuma yells out, in a cold strong tone, "X-Head Cannon, attack now!" X-Head Cannon fires two blasts at Sapphire Pegasus, destroying him, and since he was in defense mode, Genki doesn't lose any life-points and soon enough, the large sapphire appears in Genki's spell/trap zone. Shakuma then calls out, coldly, "Z-Metal Tank, destroy his runt of a monster!" Z-Metal Tank fires at Ruby Carbuncle, destroying it, and since it was in defense mode as well, Genki doesn't lose any life-points and soon enough, the large sapphire appears in his spell/trap slot. Shakuma says, in a cold serious tone, "With that, I'll end my turn!"

Current Score:

Shakuma: 8000

Genki: 3900

Genki says, drawing his card, "That's all! Please! I wanted you to do that!"

Shakuma says, in a surprised tone, "You did?"

Genki says, with a dark sly smile while sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "That's right! Since I have all four Crystal Beasts in my spell and trap zone, I can play Crystal Abundance! Now, by sending all of my Crystal Beasts in my spell and trap zone to the graveyard, I can send all cards on the field to the graveyard!"

Shakuma yells out, horrified, "No way!" Soon after, the jewels on Genki's spell/trap zone glow their respective colors and all of Shakuma's monsters and face-down card, Call of the Haunted, were destroyed, leaving field empty.

Genki says, with a dark sly smile, "However, I can summon as many Crystal Beast monsters from my graveyard as the number of cards that were sent to your graveyard and I count four cards, giving me four beasts!" Soon enough, the four jewels: sapphire, topaz, emerald, and ruby, appear on the field and transform into Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus (1800/1200), Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger (1600/1000), Crystal Beast Emerald Turtle (600/2000), and Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle (300/300) in attack mode. Genki says, with a dark sly tone, "However, let's not forget about Pegasus' effect!" Sapphire Pegasus' horn glows as a piece of amethyst appears in Genki's spell/trap slot and Genki says, with a dark sly smile while placing another card into the spell/trap slot, "Now, I can place another jewel in my spell and trap zone! Furthermore, I play Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth!" Soon enough, a piece of amber appears on the field and transforms into Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth (1700/1600) in attack mode. Genki says, sending another card into the spell/trap slot, "Then, I play Crystal Release giving my mammoth a power bonus of eight hundred points!" Amber Mammoth's stats rise from 1700/1600 to 2500/1600! Genki yells out, in a dark strong tone, "Now, gang, attack!" All of Genki's present monsters attack Shakuma hard, causing him to cry out in extreme pain and agony as the attacks ripped through his body and he is shocked by the dark lightning from the platform, losing 6800 life-points, throwing him into the ground.

Shakuma slowly stands on his feet and he says, in a cold snarl, "That doesn't matter! I'm still here!"

Genki displays a card in his hand, which happens to be Mischief of the Time Goddess quick-play card, and he says, with a dark sly smile, "Not likely! I play Mischief of Time Goddess to allow my Crystal Beasts to attack again!"

Chazz yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "Oh damn it! Not another loss!"

Shakuma yells out, horrified, "No! How was I supposed to lose! I had the power of the Light!"

Genki says, in a dark serious tone, "Not anymore! This will be a message to that freak you call 'master'! My friends, especially Holly, will never become pawns in his sick games! Now, gang, attack!" All of the Crystal Beasts on the field charges after Shakuma, hitting him hard with their attacks and Shakuma screams in extreme pain as his life-points decreases by 6800 points, ending the duel immediately.

Final Score:

Shakuma: 0

Genki: 3900

With the end of the duel, the final holograms fade away as Shakuma collapses to the ground on his back and into unconsciousness with multiple burn marks on his body.

Mina and Kino go over to drag Shakuma's form away and Yusuke yells out, with a cold serious tone, "Get away from her, dork!"

Kino says, with a dark nasty tone, "Genki Sakura won this duel fair and square and that means, this dork is ours now!"

Yusuke yells out, with a cold strong tone, "Over my dead body!" Just as, Yusuke was going to move forward, Zera's voice calls out, strongly, "Then, allow me to make that wish come true!" Just then, Zera drops from the sky with her own version of Sesshomaru's Poison Claws in her right claw aimed at Yusuke, but he was quick enough to dodge them as Zera's claws hits the earth while leaving a middle sized hole caused by the poison of her claws. Soon enough, everyone got away where Zera's poison cloud couldn't reach them.

Zera got up and she tells the SOL members, in a serious tone, "I think that you all should leave! I may not like to seriously hurt humans, with the exception of mikos, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop my allies from doing so, if you're still here!"

Davis says, in a dark strong tone, "You heard her! Leave now!"

Alexis says, in a cold serious tone, "Fine! This isn't over!" Soon enough, the SOL members left the Slifer Red dorm and Yukina says, walking over to Shakuma's body, "I can heal him!"

Masaru thinks in his mind, in a snarl, "Good! Now, I can teach him a lesson!" Soon enough, Yukina sends healing waves over Shakuma, making her wounds disappear and her uniform are restored to normal.

When Yukina is done healing, Shakuma gives a loud groans of pain and go into a sitting position with him yelling out, painfully feeling his head, "Ow! What the hell hit me? It feels like I got hit with a huge hammer!" Just then, Shakuma feels himself getting pulled by the collar and he looks at the pissed off eyes of Masaru Ishikawa.

Shakuma yells out, shocked, "Masaru!"

Masaru yells out, strongly, "That's my name! Don't wear it out!" Masaru then punches Shakuma hard in the left cheek, throwing him to the ground.

Hikari yells out, seriously, "Masaru, stop!"

Masaru yells out, angrily, "Why should I? It's his fault that my sister is brainwashed by another sadistic freak of nature on this island!" As Shakuma slowly stands up, Masaru roars out, angrily while charging at Shakuma, "Besides, I'm human like him and if I flatten him, I won't get punished!" Masaru then punches Shakuma's chest, knocking the wind out of him, and bashes his face hard, knocking to the ground.

Shippo says, winching, "Oh man! Talk about ugly!"

Masaru walks over to Shakuma as he was feeling his wounds and he yells out, angrily, "Get up, punk! I'll feel badly if I have to kick your ass while you're still on the ground!" Masaru grabs Shakuma by the collar and he yells out, strongly, "Now, get up! Right now!" Masaru then rams his right fist to Shakuma's face, three times, and throws him on the ground, further away from him.

Keiko yells out, seriously, "Masaru, stop! He's had enough!"

Masaru yells out, strongly, "No! It's never enough! My sister suffered a lot thanks to this no good troublemaker and there's something else that I haven't told you guys yet! One day, after Mayumi came home from school, he told me that two boys from her school tried to rape her!"

Ayumi says, shocked, "What!"

Rita yells out, angrily, "That's right! Mayumi also came with two other girls and told us that it was Sakami that set her up with those two perverts!"

Shakuma yells out, seriously, "I didn't do those things! I swear!"

Masaru says, in a sneer, "As if I'm going to believe you, you pig! You're a liar! I warned you when you went on that date that if anything happens to my little sister that you'll be held responsible for what happened! Now, you pay!" Masaru then charges after Shakuma in a killing intent, but he was stopped mysteriously and he looked to see that his shadow was connected to Shikamaru's shadow, trapping him to Shikamaru's Shadow Possession Jutsu.

Masaru yells out, strongly, "What the hell are you doing! Let go now!"

Shikamaru asks, curiously, "Now, before you go pounding this guy to a bloody pulp, I want you to give us the description of the two girls that your sister was with."

Rita says, in a reply, "Well, they both had black hair, one with a ponytail and the other had Chinese bun and a ponytail, and they were wearing Shinobi type uniforms."

Masaru yells out, seriously, "What's that got to do with anything!"

Mai says, in a serious tone, "I bet you anything that Dartz's stink has something to do with it!"

Sango says, in an annoyed tone, "You're right, Mai! Those boys were probably under Dartz's control to try to have their way with Mayumi and those girls who probably happen to be Melody and Megumi in their human forms happen to rescue her from them."

Joey says, annoyed, "He just never gives it a rest!"

Masaru says, in a serious tone, "Yeah! Well, that doesn't excuse him for making up sick date ending, now does it!"

Shakuma says, solemnly, "No! It doesn't! I know what I've done was wrong!"

Davis says, in a serious tone, "But why would you even make up such a thing!"

Shakuma says, with a sigh, "Well, back at school, the other boys from my basketball team were trying to pry any 'juicy' information out of me and I wanted to look good in front of them, so I…!"

Misaki says, in a snort, "Lied!"

Shakuma says, solemnly, "I know what I did was scum and I tried to get Mayumi to take to me, but she wouldn't!"

Masaru says, in a serious tone, "You know what, Sakami! I never want to see you anywhere near my sister for now on! If I do, then I'll personally make you regret ever being born! You got it!"

Atticus tells Masaru, "Now, don't you think that's a little extreme, dude!"

Zera says, with a snort, "Actually, Masaru is actually making sense, Atticus! I don't see any reason to forgive him. Think about it! If the same thing happened to your younger sister, wouldn't you feel the same!"

Atticus yells out, seriously, "I may try to hook my sister with other boys, but I would never hook her up with any guys that are known pigs like Harrington Rosewood! Also, I'd be majorly upset if something similar happens to Lexie, but if the dude says he's sorry and vows to make up for it, then I don't see why I shouldn't forgive him!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Well, you may have your ways with your younger siblings and I have mine!" On the meanwhile, some of your heroes and heroines give solemn sighs, especially Kenochi.

Hiei says, in a serious tone, "With the worthless words away, weren't we supposed to get the fifth 'Chosen Hanyou'?"

Genki asks Koenma, curiously, "Hey Pacifier Breath, where's the island that NekitaKariba is sleeping?"

Koenma says, with a sigh at Genki's 'toddler name', "It's at the southeast of this island."

Kira says, in a serious tone, "And that's where we're going!"

Keiko says, with a plain tone, "However, while you guys are gone, we'll stay to take care of those Society Dorks and the Orichalcos while we are away."

Zane says, with a dark plain tone, "I can live with that."

Jasmine says, with a dark sly smile, "Don't worry, those dorks are toast!"

Mindy says, with a dark sly grin on her lips, "They'll be begging for mercy before we're done with them!"

Hikari says, with a dark sly grin, "Well, it looks like you, girls, have got the incentive!"

Genki places his fingers on his forehead and he says, in a plain tone, "Well, I'll have search for any traces of demon energy at the direction where Koenma told us to look for Holly's childhood friend and I'll use my Instant Transmission to get us there."

Zera says, in a serious tone, "And I'll provide for the other teleportation as well." Soon enough, Genki got started on his 'sixth sense' to find any sense of demon energy around and he yells out, "Yeah! I found them!"

Zera says, in a serious tone, "Kurama, Hiei, Kenochi, Ukyo, Kamemon, and Ganryu will hold onto me while the others will hold onto Genki to make the jump." Soon enough, Kurama, Hiei, Kenochi, Ukyo, and Ganryu grabs onto Zera while Kira, Renamon, Karin, and Keisuke grabs onto Genki and those holding Genki along with Kudamon, disappears using Instant Transmission while those holding onto Zera, turn into a ball of energy with Zera, herself, in the middle and the energy ball goes into the air and off of Academy Island.

Koenma thinks in his mind, seriously, "Good luck to you all!"

(A short time later; on the lands of the Nekita)

On the Nekita lands, we find Genki, Kudamon, Kira, Renamon, Karin, and Keisuke reappearing on the island and Zera's big energy ball appearing right afterwards, bringing Zera, Kenochi, Kurama, Hiei, Ukyo, Kamemon, and Ganryu onto the island.

Kira says, looking around, "I guess that this must be the place."

Kurama says, in a serious tone, "Yes. This must be the island since I can pick up the scent of cat demons."

Zera says, stepping forward, "Let's get a move on, everyone." With that, everyone followed suit behind Zera to find NekitaKariba's village.

(Two days later; within the 'White Dorm')

Two days after Zera and her groups' departure, we find ourselves inside Sartorius' headquarters within the 'White Dorm' with Sartorius looking at his Tarot cards, The Fire and The Amazon, which had a picture of an Amazon warrior, beside each other.

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "I must get back the satellite keys from Dartz and the only way for me to get back the keys is by bringing those brainwashed by the Orichalcos to the side of the Light!" Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "And I know who?" Just then, a knock on the door was heard and Sartorius says, in reply, "You may enter!" Soon enough, Akane Tendo enters the room.

Akane asks, in a cold plain tone, "You asked for me, sir?"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile as he stands on his feet, "Yes, my dear. I think that it is time to visit your former fiancé."

Akane asks, perplexed, "Sir?"

Sartorius faces Akane with an evil sly smile and glowing violet eyes and he says, "It is time for you to bring Ranma Saotome into the Light!" Akane's eyes become blank as she closes them and after a minute, she opens them again to reveal her cold and lifeless eyes.

Akane says, with an evil sly smile, "Yes, Master! I am at your command!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "I knew that you would see things my way!"

Akane says, with an evil sly grin, "Don't worry, Master Sartorius! I'll make sure that Ranma finally see things our way!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "I know, my dear. Now, let us begin."

Akane says, with a cold emotionless tone, "Yes, Master!"

(Outside the 'White Dorm'; on the meanwhile)

Outside the 'White Dorm', we find Akane's friends, Yuka 2 and Sayuri, in their female SOL member uniforms, walking out of the dorm.

Sayuri asks Yuka, in a worried tone, "Are you sure that Akane facing Ranma would be such a good idea?"

Yuka tells Sayuri, in a cold serious tone, "Sayuri, don't tell me that you're having cold feet about this! You know that Akane has the power of the Light with her and with that, she can save Ranma from that brainwashing jerk!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Since when do I need saving from that tomboy anyways!"

The two SOL girls gasp in shock as they turn to see Ranma Saotome with a dark cold harsh glare in his eyes.

Sayuri says, stunned, "Ranma!" Yuka and Sayuri prepare to transform to fight him, but two figures appear behind them and hit them hard in the back, knocking them out. Behind the girls were Divine Fiery Pyre and Divine Asteroid.

Ranma says, with an evil sly smile, "Thanks girls!"

Divine Asteroid says, with a dark cold sly grin, "No problem, Ranma!"

Divine Fiery Pyre says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Let's take these dweebs to the arena!" Divine Fiery Pyre grabs Yuka's unconscious form and places her onto her right shoulder while Divine Asteroid does the same with Sayuri. The three Orichalcos warriors rush away in the distance while unaware of a fox like statue with a familiar fox tail, which in a puff of smoke turns into Shippo and BlackGatomon and Lalamon appear by his side.

Lalamon says, in a worried tone, "We got to warn the others!"

Shippo says, seriously, "I know, Lalamon! This is serious!"

(At the beach; at the same time)

On the path towards the beach, we find the perverted grandmaster of the Anything Goes School of Martial Arts, Happosai, running down there with lecherous excitement.

Happosai yells out, in pure lecherous excitement, "Here I come ladies! Ho! Ho!" The reason why Happosai was so happy was that he heard a group of female students going to the beach and it will be another attempt to steal any bikini tops. When he got to the beach, he didn't find anyone there. Happosai says, perplexed, "What's going on here? There are no ladies here!"

Just then, a familiar elderly voice calls out, seriously, "There you are!" Happosai turns to see Cologne walking towards him.

Happosai says, seriously, "What are you doing here?"

Cologne says, in a serious tone, "What are you talking about? You're the one that told me to be here!"

Happosai says, in a snort, "Why would I want to call you here!" Just then, Happosai spots a huge pile of girls' undergarments lying at a distance. Happosai yells out, in pure perverted excitement, "How sweet!" Happosai rushes over to the undergarment pile while Cologne looks at this with a serious stare and she gasps in shock.

Cologne yells at Happosai, in a serious tone, "You fool! It's a trap!" However, it was too late as Happosai dives into the pile as if he was swimming in water and he yells out, in an excited tone, "How sweet it is! Somebody pinch me!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Oh I'll give you something and it wouldn't be a pinch, Pervy Freak!"

Just then, another familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Release!" Soon after, the girls' undergarment pile had turn into a pile of dirty and stinky boys' undergarments. Happosai yells out, horrified, "What the…! Boys underwear!" Happosai then gains an extremely sickly expression as he falls on the ground coughing.

Cologne says, seriously, "I should have known that it was a trap!"

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "That's right, you old ghoul!"

"Ninja Blade!"

Just then, a barrage of shuriken comes towards Cologne, but she quickly dodges it after noticing them. However, in a blur, Divine Starfire appears behind her and hits at back of Cologne's neck, knocking her to the ground, knocking her out.

Happosai says, weakly, "I…I think I'm going to be sick!"

Just then, a first familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold plain tone, "It seems that you and Ranma were right, Hotaru!" Happosai looks up to see Eternal Star and Eternal Big Bang above him and he yells out, shocked, "You two!" However, the smell of the boys' undergarments was too much for Happosai to take since he couldn't stand up.

Eternal Big Bang says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Oh man! I didn't think that these things were enough for this freak can take!"

Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "You better knock him out guys!"

Eternal Star says, with a dark cold sly smile, "No problem! Nighty night, pervert!" Eternal Star sends a barrage of fists at Happosai's lying form, knocking him out.

(In the late afternoon; within school infirmary)

Within Duel Academy's infirmary, which is like a mini-hospital and filled with the most advanced medical equipment of the day, we find the soulless bodies of those victims of the Orichalcos warriors, including many SOL members, male and female, as well as Shampoo, Mousse, Tatewaki Kuno, Kodachi Kuno, Mikado Sanzenin, Azusa Shiratori, Robbie McAllen, Bobby Manti, and Kraus Yamamoto laying on their own beds and unconscious form of Koga lying down on one bed with an air mask over their noses and mouths and motioning equipment tapped to their lower chests while covered under blankets, with iron made shackles on his wrists and ankles. The reasons for the shackles was that, Koga was screaming pain while he was unconscious and the shackles were the only thing keeping him from ripping his body with his claws and the shackles were strong enough to keep him locked. Ayame, Ginta, and Hakkaku were at Koga's side in case the SOL members decided to attack him, thanks to the lies from the Light of Destruction controlled Sartorius. Right now, we find our heroes and heroines, along with Happosai, Akane's family, and Ranma and Hotaru's father, assembled in and around the office with Shakuma Sakami gaining a dark look.

Shakuma's blond hair was pitch black with red highlights and he was wearing a black leather choker. He was wearing a dark blue shirt, black pants, and black shoes.

Soun says, solemnly, "Look at the people around here."

Genma says, in a solemn tone, "This was probably caused by the boy and girl with their new Orichalcos powers."

Nabiki says, in a plain tone, "Hotaru has always been cold-hearted even more than me, but this is too much." Just then, Koga's screams of pain and agony were heard and everyone sees Koga rapidly tossing and turning while howling in extreme pain.

Ayame yells out, worriedly, "Koga!"

Koenma yells out, seriously, "Don't worry, Ayame! Those shackles are meant to hold even the toughest of demons down! There's no way that Koga can hurt himself!"

Kakashi says, in a serious tone, "But still! This new Tsukuyomi is causing Koga more mental damage!"

Sango says, in a serious tone, "But this can't go on! We have to get Inuyasha back from the Orichalcos or Koga would die from the Infernal Tsukuyomi." Koga continues to scream out in extreme pain while tossing and turning from his coma.

(Within Koga's mind; on the meanwhile)

Within the Tsukuyomi world, we find Koga chained to a cross and fully awake while in a battered shape.

Koga yells out, strongly, "Get me out of here! Now!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, in a dark cold sly tone, "That's the matter, wolf! Too much for you!" Soon after, Inuyasha, in his regular red kimono, reappears in front of him with an evil sly smile.

Koga says, in a snarl, "You…!" Koga tries to get free from the chains, but he couldn't.

Inuyasha says, with an evil sly grin, "Sorry, wolf, but those chains are made to keep you from escaping." Inuyasha then puts his right index finger at Koga and shoots an eerie green energy beam at Koga's right leg, causing him to yelp in pain. Inuyasha says, with an evil sly smile, "Now, let's see how you can take it, wolf!" Inuyasha fires a barrage of energy beams at Koga, all hitting him hard, causing Koga to scream out in extreme pain and agony as they hit.

(Back in the 'Real World'; at the same time)

Back in the 'Real World', Koga screams out in extreme pain and agony as his body was producing more wounds similar to the places where Inuyasha had hit him with his energy beams in his 'dream'.

Ayame calls out, horrified, "Koga!"

Davis yells out, shocked, "What's that!"

Miroku says, in a serious tone, "No! It seems that while Koga is that coma, he's producing more wounds!"

Koenma yells out, seriously, "Everyone! I've got some painkillers meant for demons, like Koga, he'll ease his pain, but we have to hold him down!"

Ginta says, seriously, "You got it!" Ginta and Hakkaku grabs hold of Koga's head, preventing it from moving as Koenma takes out a bottle of red pills, takes one out, and places it in Koga's mouth, making his pain cries to go down, but he was breathing heavily.

Kasumi says, worriedly, "Oh my! This can't go on!"

Sango says, in a serious tone, "We have to hope that Koga could wait six months or we'll lose him."

Soun asks Koenma, in a serious tone, "Lord Koenma, are you all making plans to save my baby girl from the Light of Destruction?"

Koenma says, in a serious tone, "Yes, Soun! We may believe that it's best that Ryoga saves Akane from Sartorius since with Inuyasha and his family, who are stronger than Yusuke, can get to Akane anytime that they wish and she'll be in even more danger. Akane would be safe with us with Keiko and Hikari as well as Davis and TK."

Ryoga says, with a smile, "That's an idea that I'll go with."

Genma yells out, seriously, "That's out of the question! We need to get Ranma back first! He'll save Akane! Ranma is Akane's fiancé!"

TK says, seriously and a bit annoyed, "And if I'm not mistaken! It's those engagements that you put him and Hotaru in that caused this mess to happen!"

Kakashi says, with a nod, "Yes! And we've decided that once Akane is brought back, we'll tell her everything that has happened, including Ryoga's curse!"

Ryoga yells out, shocked, "Wait! You can't!"

Jiraiya says, in a serious tone, "I'm afraid so, kid!"

Tsunade says, in a serious tone, "Indeed! Keeping your curse a secret was one of the reasons why Ranma was brainwashed by the Orichalcos in the first place! Many of the times that Ranma got in trouble with Akane was because of you, trying to sleep in the same bed and many other things that we're indeed troublesome!"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "You think that if you'll keep your secret from Akane that you were her pet pig, that she'll automatically like you! If she finds out, then she'll be pissed off as Hell! She has a right to know!"

Tsunade says, glaring at Genma, "And not to mention that the welfare of Ranma and Hotaru are damaged with the dishonorable engagements that you placed on them, Genma as well as the Neko-ken that you had Ranma learn! I have half a brain to tell Nodoka everything that happened while Ranma and Hotaru were in your 'care'!"

Genma says, fearfully, "You won't!"

Tsunade says, in a deadly serious tone, "We can and we will! As soon as Nodoka is brought here, we're going to tell her everything, including the curse and don't think about escaping since we'll have people preventing you from doing so!"

Genma says, in a pleading tone, "Please, Lady Hokage! You can't! If Nodoka finds out, then…!"

Hikari says, in a serious tone, "Whatever it is, you probably deserve it!"

Just then, familiar female voice calls out, "Everyone!" Everyone turns to see Shippo, Lalamon, and BlackGatomon running into the office with frantic looks on their faces.

Shippo yells out, worriedly, "Guys, we found Akane Tendo, who happens to have a cold and lifeless look in her eyes, going to challenge Ranma."

BlackGatomon yells out, seriously, "That's right! We heard the whole thing through Sartorius' window!"

Ryoga says, horrified, "Cold and lifeless!"

Davis says, in a horrified tone, "No! That alien freak did the same thing with Sayu too!"

Tyson says, in a dark serious tone, "Once that white dork version of Akane finds Ranma, then the REAL Akane's soul is in danger, armed with Keiko's psychic powers to boot!"

Soun yells out, in distress, "My baby girl! Daddy's coming!" With that, Soun rushes out of the office and Genma yells out, seriously, "We have to get to Akane, before, she find Ranma or Hotaru!" Soon enough, the others, except for Ayame, Ginta, and Hakkaku, rushes to the direction of where Soun and Happosai went to.

(Within the Obelisk Arena; at the same time)

In Obelisk Arena, we find Dartz and the Orichalcos warriors assembled there with the unconscious forms of Happosai, Cologne, Yuka 2, and Sayuri chained to black crosses and with plenty of sutras on and around them to negate Yuka's and Sayuri's Divine Warrior powers and they have a black shackle across their necks. On the platform, Ranma is in his 'Ranko' form with a Chaos Duel Disk attached to her left wrist. Soon after, the fully brainwashed Akane Tendo with an Academy Duel Disk that has a dueling deck inside attached to her left wrist appears in the arena in front of them.

Megumi says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Well, look who came in!"

Hiroshi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "There's something different about you, tomboy, what happened?"

Akane yells at Hiroshi, in a cold nasty tone, "Don't call me a 'tomboy', you Orichalcos freak!"

Daisuke says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Oh so you finally revealed your true self, huh, Tendo!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold snort, "It doesn't matter anyway! She's still going to lose!"

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "That's not going to happen, Ranma! Now turn back into a guy!"

Ranko says, with a dark cold taunting tone, "Why? Getting beat by a girl that's cuter than you will be too much for you!"

Akane yells out, in a cold annoyed tone, "That's it! Stay a girl! I'll still beat you and show you the Light!" Akane notices her friends, Cologne, and Happosai, by the Orichalcos and she yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Hey, what have you done to them!"

Michael says, with an evil sly grin, "Oh! We wanted to have an audience with them and when you lose, your friends' as well as the ghoul's and the freak's souls will be next!"

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "That's not going to happen!" Akane jumps onto the platform and she says, in a cold serious tone, "It's time that you guys pay for everything that you did to us, Society members!"

Ranko says, with an evil taunting tone, "Oh! You mean the things that we did that you dweebs so richly deserved!"

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "We didn't deserve that! We were trying to help mankind by seeing the Light and if you're convinced yet, then I'll force the Light to you!" Akane and Ranko activate their duel disks, their life-point counters display 8000 life-points, and Akane and Ranko draw five cards from their decks.

"Game on!" Akane and Ranko yell out in unison as their duel begins.

Starting Scores:

Ranko: 8000

Akane: 8000

Akane says, with a cold serious tone drawing one card from her deck, "I'll start this duel off! Draw!" Akane says, putting one card on her duel disk, "So, I start off with my Magical Exemplar in attack mode!" Soon after, Magical Exemplar (1700/1400) appears on the field in attack mode. Akane says, putting one card in the spell/trap slots, "Next, I'll play my Swords of Revealing Light! This card stops your attacks for three turns! Also, my magician gains two spell counters for every spell card played!" Just then a group of swords made of light appear on the field and surrounds Ranko and her monsters and Magical Exemplar gains two spell counters. Akane says, in a cold plain tone, "With that, I'll end my turn!" Just then, our heroes and heroines appear in the arena and Davis yells out, shocked, "No! We're too late!"

Inuyasha says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Look who's here!"

Soun and Genma looks at their master and Cologne's unconscious forms and Soun says, surprised, "The master and Elder Cologne!"

Ryoga says, in a shocked tone, "And Akane's friends! They're with the Orichalcos!"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "Look! This duel is over!"

Hikaru says, pointing at the captured SOL members, "I wouldn't be so sure, Yukimura!"

Light says, with an evil sly smile while taking out his 'Orichalcos Note', "Any of you try to interfere! These dorks will have their souls taken away and since Master Dartz has confirmed that one of these dweebs isn't the last 'Signer', then my Orichalcos Note won't be destroyed!"

Ryoga says, in a snarl, "Damn it! We're screwed! Once Ranma plays his Seal of Orichalcos and Keiko's 'psychic powers', then Akane's doomed!"

Nabiki yells at Ranko, in a serious tone, "Saotome, by now! My friends would have gotten some information about Dartz's company Paradise to use against him! In other words, you better let my sister go or I'll…!"

Hotaru says, pulling out two Seal of Orichalcos cards with faces of two seventeen old girls, "…you'll want, Tendo! Try to blackmail us by using your friends to dig up dirt on Paradise!"

Nabiki gasps in shock and Dartz says, with an evil sly smile, "Nice try, Miss Tendo! Miss Saotome has already told me that you may resort trying to get classified information about my company and it seems that she was right!"

Nabiki says, glaring at Hotaru, "You…!"

Nodoka says, with an evil sly grin, "You should know by now that my daughter is always one step ahead, Nabiki."

Ranko says, with a dark cold serious tone, "My move, dork!" Ranko says, putting one card on her duel disk, "And I play my Solar Flare Dragon in defense mode!" Soon after, Solar Flare Dragon (1500/1000) comes to the field in defense mode. Ranko says, putting two cards in the spell/trap slots, "I'll end my turn with one face-down and my dragon dealing five hundred points of direct damage!" Solar Flare Dragon fires a flame blast at Akane and Akane cries out in pain as the flame hits her and she loses 500 life-points. Ranko says, with an evil sly grin, "Oh right! Did I forget to mention that I'm using Yukimura's 'Psychic Powers' in this duel! Sorry about that and there's one other thing I forgot to tell you!" Then the shackles on Yuka and Sayuri activate and they cry out in pain as they are shocked. Akane calls out, stunned, "Yuka! Sayuri! What in the hell is going on?"

Ranko tells Akane, with a dark cold sly grin, "That's simple, tomboy. Every time that you lose life-points, your dorky friends, the ghoul, and the freak get shocked by those shackles."

Akane and our heroes and heroines gasp in shock and Ryoga yells out, horrified, "It's worse than we thought!"

Genma tells Soun, in a whisper, "Tendo, we better hope that the boy does enough damage to the master!"

Soun says, in a serious tone and whisper, "Saotome, in this duel, my daughter's life is still in danger! Have you forgotten!"

The shock wakes up Happosai, Cologne, Yuka, and Sayuri and Cologne yells out, indignantly, "What in the world is going on here? Who is responsible for this?"

Inuyasha yells out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Why do you four shut up and watch the duel, you old ghoul?"

Happosai says, in a deadly snarl, "How dare you trick me like this!" Happosai tries to break free, but she couldn't even move her restraints.

Holly says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Sorry, freak, but these spell scrolls negate your skills as well as these dweebs."

Yuka 2 calls out, stunned, "No way!"

Sayuri yells out, in a cold serious tone, "We've got to get out of here!"

Just then Magician's Valkyria (1600/1800) appears on the field in attack mode. Akane yells out, in a cold strong tone, "Magician's Valkyria, attack with Mystic Scepter Blast!" Magician's Valkyria fires a green blast at Solar Flare Dragon.

Ranko says, pushing a button on her duel disk, "Don't think so, dweeb! I reveal my face-down: Gravity Bind!" Ranko's face-down card is revealed to be Gravity Bind and Ranko says, with a dark cold sly smile, "This card stops any attack from a monster that has more than three stars!" An invisible barrier appears around Ranko and her monster that blocks Magician's Valkyria's attack.

Bastion says, in a serious tone, "And it gets worse, ladies and gents, as long as that Gravity Bind is still in play that white dork version of Akane can't attack while Ranma can still do damage to her life-points."

Akane says, in a cold snarl, "I'll end my turn!"

Ranko says, drawing a card, "It's my move, geek!" Ranko says, putting one card on her duel disk, "Then I play Volcanic Slicer in attack mode!" Just then Volcanic Slicer (1800/1200) comes to the field in attack mode. Ranko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "And my monster has a nasty secret ability, I can inflict damage towards your life-points!" Volcanic Slicer fires a fire stream at Akane and she yelps in pain as it hits her and she loses 500 life-points from her score while Happosai, Cologne, Yuka 2, and Sayuri get shocked from the shackles.

When the shock stops, Sayuri yells out, worriedly, "Akane!"

Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "And I'll end my turn with my Solar Flare Dragon hitting you with five hundred more damage!" Solar Flare Dragon fires another fire steam at Akane, hitting her hard causing her to scream out in pain as she feels the flames and she loses 500 life-points. Then, the shackles activate and Happosai, Cologne, Yuka 2, and Sayuri scream out in pain. Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "You like how I've constructed my deck! I've made it to where I can cause you the same physical pain that you've caused me in the past, slowly and painfully."

Ryoga says, with a smile, "All right! That way Ranma can't touch her!"

Yuka yells at Ryoga, annoyed, "Who's side are you on anyway! If Ranma loses, then I'll be still brainwashed by another sadistic asshole and the Society of Light will have another Chosen Duelist in their ranks replacing Kagome!"

Ryoga realizes that knowledge and he says, lowly, "Oh yeah!"

Ranko says, with a dark cold sly smile, "You seem to be forgetting something, P-chan! I can still inflict damage!" Ranko says, drawing a card, "Like now! I activate my Volcanic Slicer's effect to burn five hundred points from your score!" Volcanic Slicer fires another fire stream at Akane causing her to scream out in pain as she feels the flames and loses 500 life-points from her score while her friends, Happosai, and Cologne yelp in pain as they were shocked by their shackles.

When the shackles stop, Happosai yells at Ranko, strongly, "Ranma, I don't care if you're brainwashed or not! When I get out of here, I'm going to…!"

Inuyasha yells at Happosai, in a dark cold annoyed tone, "Oh shut up, pervert!" Inuyasha hits Happosai on the head hard, causing him to yelp in pain.

Ranko says, putting a card on her duel disk, "I'll place a face-down monster and end my turn! However, my dragon isn't done, tomboy! You still lose more life-points!" After a hologram of a face-down monster card appears on Ranko's side of the field, Solar Flare Dragon fires another fire stream at Akane causing her to scream out in pain as she loses 500 more life-points and her friends, Cologne, and Happosai yells out in pain as they are shocked by the shackles. Soon after, the effect of Akane's Swords of Revealing Light disappears.

Just then, Akane, who has smoke coming from her form, breathes heavily as she struggles to stay on her feet and Ranko says, with an evil smile, "Hurts doesn't it! And it's going to get worse, dork!"

Akane says, drawing one card from her deck with a haggard look on her face, "We'll see, Ranma! It's my turn!" Akane says, putting one card on her duel disk, "I summon my Skilled Dark Magician in attack mode and end my turn!" Skilled Dark Magician (1900/1700) appears on the field in attack mode.

Ranko says, drawing a card, "What a waste of a turn!" Ranko says, placing a card on her duel disk, "I summon Raging Flame Sprite in attack mode!" Soon after, Raging Flame Sprite (100/100) comes to the field in attack mode. Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "Without your swords to stop me, my sprite can attack you directly!" Raging Flame Sprite fires a fire stream at Akane and she yelps in pain as she loses 100 life-points. Then, her friends, Cologne, and Happosai yelp in pain as well from being shocked. Ranko says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Now since my sprite has attacked you directly, it gains one thousand points!" Raging Flame Sprite's stats increase from 100/100 to 1100/100 and Ranko then turns over the face-down monster card on her duel disk and she calls out, "And I Flip Summon Stealth Bird in attack mode!" The face-down monster card appears to be Stealth Bird (700/1700) and Ranko says, with a dark cold sly smile, "And since this monster was Flip Summoned, it can deal one thousand points of damage to you!" Stealth Bird sends a storm of feather as Akane and she screams in shock as she loses 1000 more life-points while her friends, Happosai, and Cologne screams out in pain as they are shocked. Ranko says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Now, Volcanic Slicer inflicts five hundred points of damage towards you!" Volcanic Slicer fires a fire stream at Akane causing her as well as her friends, Happosai, and Cologne screaming in pain as Akane loses 500 more life-points.

After Akane falls on her knees, while groaning in pain as her form has smoke and burn marks, Yuka 2 says, worriedly, "This isn't good! Akane lost over half of her life-points!"

Sayuri says, in a cold serious tone, "She has to win! We have to get Ranma away from that King of Creeps!"

Kai says, in a serious tone, "I've noticed something! Ranma hasn't played the Seal of Orichalcos yet!"

Tyson says, in a serious tone, "You're right, Kai! I wonder why!"

Sasuke says, in a plain tone, "If I know an avenger's heart, Tyson, then Ranma wouldn't play it while dueling against the white fake of Akane, but the real Akane!"

As Akane was slowly standing on her feet, Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "Why don't you just stay down, Akane! You can't beat me and you'll never will! This is the revenge that I've dreamed ever since I found out your true colors!"

Akane finally stands on her feet and she says, drawing her card, "I'm not quitting!" Akane says, sending a card into a spell/trap slot, "I'll play Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy that Gravity Bind while my Magical Exemplar gains two counters and my Skilled Dark Magician gains one counter!" Just then, a small tornado appears on the field and destroys Ranko's Gravity Bind. Akane says, in a cold serious tone while placing a card on her duel disk, "Now, I can attack now! So, I'll release my Skilled Dark Magician and one of my Magician's Valkyrias to Advance Summon my Dark Magician!" After one of the two Magician's Valkyrias and Skilled Dark Magician, Dark Magician (2500/2100) appears on the field in attack mode. Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "Now, I'll use my Magical Exemplar's ability to remove all four spell counters to summon a Spellcaster from my graveyard like my Magician's Valkyria!" The second Magician's Valkyria (1600/1800) appears next to Dark Magician in attack mode. Akane sends a card in her spell/trap slot and she says, with a cold sly smile, "Now, I'll play my White Veil spell card to my Dark Magician!" Dark Magician then turns pitch white with dark violet glowing eyes and Akane says, with a cold sly smile, "Now, when he attacks all of your spells and traps are gone!"

Ranko says, presses a button on her duel disk, "I'll play my face-down card! Curse of the Forbidden Spell!" Ranko's face-down card was the Curse of the Forbidden Spell counter trap and Ranko says, discarding his Chain Strike quick-play spell card, "Thanks to this card! At the cost of a spell card from my hand, the effects of your fucking White Veil are negated and you can't play the same spell card for the entire duel!"

Akane yells out, horrified, "No!" Soon after, Dark Magician returns to his original colors and Akane calls out, in a cold angered tone, "You'll pay for that, Ranma! Dark Magician, attack his face-down card with Dark Magic Attack!" Dark Magician fires a green blast at Ranko's face-down monster which was Stealth Bird (700/1700) and destroys it. Akane yells out, in a cold strong tone, "Magician's Valkyria, attack Raging Flame Sprite with Mystic Scepter Blast!"

When the shocking stops, Akane says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "That's not going to stop me! I play Shrink to cut your Volcanic Slicer's attack points in half and giving my Magical Exemplar two counters!" Volcanic Slicer's stats were reduced to 900/1200 and Akane calls out, in a cold strong tone, "Now, my second Magician's Valkyria attacks your Slicer!" The second Magician's Valkyria fires another blast at Volcanic Slicer, destroying it, and causing Ranko to lose 700 more life-points.

Ranko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "That was a fire monster that you've destroyed and it'll cost you five hundred points!" The Backfire trap sends a fire stream at Akane causing her to scream out in pain as she is burned while her friends, Happosai, and Cologne scream out in pain as they are shocked by electricity and Akane loses 500 more life-points.

When the shock stops, Akane says, groaning in pain, "That was worth it since you're defenseless! My turn is done!"

Current Score:

Ranko: 6800

Ranko says, drawing her card, "So is this duel!" Ranko says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "I activate Card of Sanctity! Now, both of us can draw until we're holding six cards in our hands!" Ranko and Akane draw until they are holding six cards in their hands and Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "And since a spell card is played, two more spell counters are given to my Magical Exemplar!"

After Magical Exemplar was given two more spell counters, Ranko says, with a dark cold plain tone while sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "I know that! Now, I play Blaze Accelerator!" Just then, Blaze Accelerator appears in Ranko's spell/trap zones and Ranko says, sending her Volcanic Shell (100/0) monster card into the graveyard, "Now, I play my Accelerator's effect! By sending a card into graveyard, I can destroy one monster on your field!" Soon after, Volcanic Shell (100/0) appears on the field, goes into the blaster, and the shell was fired at Magician's Valkyria, destroying her. Ranko says, putting another card into the spell/trap slots, "Then I release by Blaze Accelerator to play my Tri-Blaze Accelerator!" Blaze Accelerator vanishes while Tri-Blaze Accelerator appears to take its place while Akane's Magical Exemplar gains two more spell counters. Ranko then puts one card on her duel disk and yells out, "Then I release my Tri-Blaze Accelerator to summon my Volcanic Doomfire in attack mode!" Immediately, Volcanic Doomfire (3000/1800) appears on the field in attack mode.

Akane says, in a cold serious tone, "You can't attack this turn since played your Blaze Accelerator!"

Ranko says, sending a card into spell/trap slot, "Wrong! Now, I play my Mischief of the Time Goddess to skip your turn and attack!" After Akane's Magical Exemplar gains two more spell counters, Akane gasps in shock and horror and Ranko yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Now, Doomfire, attack her Magician's Valkyria!" Volcanic Doomfire unleashes a sphere of molten energy at Magician's Valkyria and destroys her causing Akane to yelp as she loses 1400 life-points while her friends, Happosai, and Cologne scream out in pain as they are shocked by their shackles. Ranko says, with a dark cold sly grin, "And it gets worse, tomboy, when my monster destroys a monster in battle, every monster is destroyed and you take five hundred damage for each monster destroyed!"

Akane says, horrified, "This can't be happening! I've got the power of the Light on my side!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold snort displaying her Seal of Orichalcos Field Spell card, "This was too easy! I didn't even need the Seal of Orichalcos to beat you!"

Yuka 2 yells out, horrified, "Oh no! Akane!"

Sayuri calls out, pleadingly, "Ranma, please don't!"

Ranko yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Now, Doomfire, end this!" Soon enough, Akane's two monsters had explode causing Akane to scream out in shock as she loses 1000 more life-points as well as her friends, Happosai, and Cologne howling in pain, ending the duel immediately.

Final Score:

Ranko: 6800

Akane: 0

With the end of the duel, Akane's greatly smoking form collapses onto the ground, face-first, as the final images disappear and Yuka 2, Sayuri, Happosai, and Cologne loses consciousness.

Soun calls out, worriedly, "Akane!"

Ryoga calls out, "Akane, no!" Soon enough, Ryoga runs over to the platform and when he gets close, Inuyasha disappears using his new super-speed and appears by Ryoga's right side and kicks him hard in the stomach, causing Ryoga to be thrown in the air. Megumi disappear from sight and appears above Ryoga's rising form and hits him hard in the back, throwing him to the ground with a nasty thud.

Bearmon yells out, stunned, "Ryoga!"

Naruto places his hands to ninja hand signs and he calls out, "Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!" In a puff of smoke, 200 Naruto Shadow Clones appear in sight and they attack the fallen Ryoga, who was trying to get up, but the Naruto Shadow Clones grabs Ryoga's arms and legs.

Davis says, horrified, "They got him!"

Bearmon yells out, seriously, "Let him go!"

Hotaru says, with a dark cold sly grin, "No way! We're going to have another duel with the audience of our choosing!"

Melody then disappears using her Flash Step technique, appears behind Nabiki, grabs her by the arms, and disappears and reappear with Nabiki, captured.

Kasumi calls out, horrified, "Nabiki!"

Nabiki yells out, in a serious tone, "Hey, let me go!"

Ranko says, with an evil sly grin, "Sorry, Nabiki, but we want to show your sister when she comes to what happens when you mess with me!" Soon enough, Inuyasha takes Happosai's unconscious form, Melody takes Cologne's unconscious form, Hotaru takes both of Akane's friends' unconscious forms to her shoulders and Ranko grabs Akane's unconscious form and places her on her right shoulder.

Soun yells at Ranko, in a strong tone while using his 'huge demon head technique', "RANMA, LIVE MY DAUGHTER ALONE!"

Ranko yells at Soun, in a dark cold strong tone while using her own version of Soun's 'huge demon head technique' but even larger, "BUZZ OFF, WORM, BEFORE I REALLY GET MAD!" Of course, this 'demon head' causing Soun to back off while winching in fear at Ranko's version of his 'demon head technique'. Soon enough, Dartz and the Orichalcos warriors leaving using some sort of teleportation while taking Akane, Yuka 2, Sayuri, Ryoga, and Nabiki with them.

Keiko yells out, shocked, "They're gone!"

Soun yells out, horrified, "My babies! They're going to get their souls taken!"

Bearmon falls on his knees and he says, worriedly, "Ryoga…!"

(At the mountainous regions of Japan; A brief time soon after)

At the mountainous regions, which appears to be a similar size of a shopping mall, we find the Orichalcos warriors there while Inuyasha was chaining the unconscious Happosai to a wooden cross, Ranko was chaining Akane's unconscious form to another wooden cross, and Melody chaining Cologne's unconscious form to a similar cross. On the meanwhile, Ryoga was trying to break free from Naruto's Shadow Clones' grip, but even with his strength, he couldn't break free and Yuka 2 and Sayuri, who were tied up, were thrown to the ground along with Nabiki, who was also tied up.

Nabiki yells out, seriously, "Let me go! Now!"

Hotaru tells Nabiki, with a dark cold sly grin, "Do you think that you have any saying in the matter, Nabiki? Sorry, you don't!" On the meanwhile, Ryoga was reluctantly being chained to another metal cross, both wrists and ankles. Ryoga tries to get out from his restraints, but he couldn't.

Naruto says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Don't even try getting out, Hibiki! That cross and chains were made to restrain anyone that has your strength."

Ryoga yells out, strongly, "What do you want with us!"

Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "What do you think, P-chan! We want an audience since there will be a total of four souls sealing away today. The only reason why I spared Akane's soul earlier was I wanted to seal away the REAL Akane, the one that betrayed me!"

Ryoga yells out, strongly, "Akane didn't betray you! Dartz set the two of you up!"

Hotaru says, with an evil sly smile, "The same tomboy-ass-kisser, huh? And speaking of tomboys…!" Hotaru kicks Akane's chest and Akane wakes up immediately.

Akane yells out, perplexed, "What the hell!"

Nabiki looks up to see her sister and she says, shocked, "Akane!"

Akane looks at Nabiki and she says, perplexed, "Nabiki, what are you doing here! And why are you tied up!" Akane tries to move, but she couldn't and finds herself chained to her cross. Akane yells out, surprised, "What the…! Hey, what's going on! Why am I wearing this weird white uniform for! Plus, I'm stuck!"

Hotaru says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Of course you are, loser!"

Akane looks at Hotaru and Nodoka and she says, surprised, "Hotaru, Auntie Saotome, what are you doing here? Aren't you sick, Hotaru!"

Hotaru says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Actually, I'm feeling a lot better! However, you won't after this…!"

Akane says, perplexed, "What do you mean?"

Ryoga yells out to Akane, seriously, "Akane, we've been captured by these guys!"

Akane looks at Ryoga and she says, perplexed, "Ryoga, what are you doing here and what do you mean by 'captured'!"

Hiroshi says, with a dark cold sly smile, "He means that we're going to play a little game and you dorks are going to be the entertainment."

Akane looks at Daisuke and Hiroshi and she says, shocked, "Daisuke! Hiroshi! What are you two doing here!"

Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "They're here to make sure that you pay for what you did to me!"

Akane looks at her cursed former fiancé and she says, lowly, "Ranma…!"

Ryoga yells at Akane, strongly, "Akane, Ranma isn't himself! He's been brainwashed by a sadistic asshole named Dartz!"

Akane says, perplexed, "Brainwashed?"

Agumon 2 yells at Ryoga, in a dark cold nasty tone, "The boss hasn't been brainwashed, P-chan, so shut it! He just happened to know the truth of what you and that bitchy tomboy have done to him!"

Akane says, looking at the two Agumons and Falcomon, "Are those Digimon?"

Tai says, with a dark cold sly smile, "That's right, Tendo! These are my as well as Ranma and Hotaru's Digimon partners."

Hotaru says, with a dark cold grin, "While you were sleeping, loser, Ranma and I have become Digidestined."

Just then, Holly walks towards the unconscious form of Yuka 2 and splashes her with cold water and she yells out, "Rise and shine, white freak!" Yuka 2 yelps out in shock as she regains consciousness.

Akane gasps when she sees Yuka 2 and Sayuri, who was still unconscious, and she calls out, surprised, "Yuka! Sayuri! What are you two doing here!"

Yuka 2 looks at Akane and she says, worriedly, "Akane!" Yuka 2 tries to break through the robes with her strength, but she couldn't.

Melody says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Don't try, white nerd! Those robes can't be broken with your strength."

Akane yells out, seriously, "Would someone please tell me what's going on here!"

Dartz tells Akane, with an evil sly smile, "What's happening, Miss Tendo, is that you're on trial?"

Akane asks, looking at Dartz, "What trial? And who are you?"

Yuka 2 says, in a cold serious tone while glaring at Dartz, "Akane, don't you remember! He's Dartz, the same asshole, who set you and Ranma up!"

Akane says, perplexed, "Set up?"

Ryoga says, in a serious tone, "That's right! Dartz was the one, who set up you and Ranma earlier!"

Ranko tells Ryoga, in a dark cold serious tone, "Don't try to act dumb, P-chan! I already know the truth! You and Akane tried to pull the wool over my eyes the entire time!"

Akane says, perplexed, "What!"

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "Akane didn't know about that! Dartz has been lying to you!"

Hotaru yells at Ryoga, in a dark cold strong tone, "Master Dartz isn't a liar, Hibiki!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Yeah! He's been honest and kind to us, unlike a certain tomboy that I know!"

Yuka 2 yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Dartz is a liar! Ranma, can't you see that you're being used! Akane didn't know that Hibiki was her pet pig, P-chan!"

Akane was taken back at this and she says, stunned, "No way! Ryoga is P-chan!" Just then, the memories of the duel between herself and the SOL controlled Ukyo Kuonji appear in her mind as well as the SOL controlled Ukyo, Alexis Rhodes, Yusuke Urameshi, and Kagome Higurashi revealing to her about Ryoga's 'P-chan' curse. Akane thinks in her mind, seriously, "Ukyo, as well as Yusuke, Kagome, and Alexis said the same thing, but Ryoga couldn't be P-chan…! He couldn't…or I just don't want to admit it." Just then, memories of Ryoga and P-chan never being in the same room as well as Ranma showing up in her room with a kettle of hot water when P-chan first stayed in her room appear in Akane's mind. Akane thinks in her mind, seriously, "Ryoga…he…" Akane looks at Ryoga, who looking away from her in shame, and she asks, with uncertainly, "Ryoga, please tell me…please tell me that you're not P-chan!"

Ranko yells at Akane, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Oh shut up, bitch! I'm not buying that again! I know that you already knew! Master Dartz told me!"

Hotaru says, in a dark cold serious tone, "And that's not all! I've found some interesting things in Akane's room!" Hotaru takes out a few papers that looked as if someone was practicing drawing a map in them and Hotaru asks, in a dark cold serious tone, "Ranma, have you wondered how someone like Ryoga Hibiki, who couldn't find himself out of a paper bag, and Mousse, who is so blind that he wouldn't notice a truck coming at him in full speed, find Duel Academy so easily without screwing up?" Hotaru shows the incomplete drawing map and Ryoga gasps in shock.

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "I know that…!" Ryoga thinks in his mind, seriously, "Wait a minute! Back home, someone sent me a letter with the directions to Cat Café, where Mousse, in his cursed form, was locked in a cage, trying to get out. After I released Mousse, he told me that Ranma chose to be with Shampoo as well as the fake tape of Ranma's voice and went to Duel Academy, without any trouble. I should have known…!" Ryoga roars out, an enraged tone while glaring at Dartz, "You bastard! You set me and Mousse to get to Duel Academy! You planned for us to get there just to keep Ranma in your control!"

Hotaru says, in a dark cold serious tone, "No way! Master Dartz didn't do anything, Hibiki! We found out that it was Akane, who drew that map to Duel Academy, so you wouldn't get lost so easily!"

Akane yells out, seriously, "I didn't do such a thing!"

Falcomon says, in a dark cold snort taking out a tape-player, "Don't even try to lie yourself out of this, human! I've found those papers in your room! As well as the phone message that you left in the Hibiki's answering machine after that fake tape was brought by that old ghoul!"

When Falcomon turns on the recorder, Akane's voice comes out of it and says, "Ryoga-kun, please help me! That perverted stupid jerk, Ranma, attacked me in his curse form! I think that he may be on to our plot, maybe that rotten stool pigeon, Hotaru, must have told him that since she has a real nice way of messing things up for us! Without that pervert's rotten sister here, Ranma will be defenseless! Please help me!" When Falcomon stops the recording, there were many dark cold annoyed and angered glares at the flabbergasted Akane and Ryoga.

Akane yells out, stunned, "That's not my voice!" Just then, a rock was thrown to Akane's face, breaking her nose, by a pissed off Ranko

Ranko says, in a dark cold angered snarl, "You bitch!"

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "That tape! It's not Akane's voice! That's not her voice!" Ryoga glares at Dartz and he yells at him, angrily, "You bastard! It's really true! You're the one! You set Ranma and Akane up! You're the one, who brought Shampoo to Duel Academy! You're the one, who lure Mousse and me, to there!"

Ranko yells at Ryoga, in a dark cold angered tone, "You know! I'm getting fed up that you're still lying to me face, even after your plots has been foiled, Hibiki!"

Yuka 2 yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Ranma, that tape could have been another fake!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "True, however, Master Dartz confirmed it to be real! Nice try!"

Akane calls out, seriously, "That's not my voice! That's not my voice!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold snort, "Sorry, not believing that for a second, tomboy! It's time for you two to pay for what you've done, starting right now, with one of your dorky friends!"

Megumi grabs Yuka by her ropes, drags her away from the unconscious Sayuri and Nabiki, and throws her to the ground, after clawing the ropes, holding Yuka, freeing her.

Daisuke takes out a Chaos Duel Disk, attaches it to his left wrist, and he calls out to Yuka, in a dark cold serious tone, "Okay, dweeb, we're dueling now!"

Yuka yells out, in a cold serious tone, "And have my soul taken away, no thanks!"

Light takes out his Orichalcos Note and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Well, if you don't then, I'll just have to write one of your dorky friends' names in my Orichalcos Note."

Yuka says, shocked, "You wouldn't!"

Light yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "I can and I will!"

Yuka yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Okay, Daisuke, you got yourself a duel! If I win, then you join the Society of Light!"

Daisuke says, in a dark cold serious tone, "And if you lose, then your soul is ours!" They activate their duel disks as their life-point meter went to 8000 life-points and they draw five cards.

"Game on!" Daisuke and Yuka say in unison.

Starting Score:

Daisuke: 8000

Yuka 2: 8000

Daisuke says, drawing his card, "I'll start!" Daisuke says, placing a card on his duel disk, "I summon Shining Angel in defense mode!" Immediately, Shining Angel (1400/800) appears on the field in defense mode. Daisuke says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "Finally, I'll place a face-down and end my turn!"

Yuka says, drawing a card, "It's my turn!" Yuka says, putting a card on the duel disk, "I summon Skilled Dark Magician in attack mode!" Just then, Skilled Dark Magician (1900/800) comes to the field in attack mode. Yuka says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "Next, I'll activate my Magical Blast spell card! Since I have a spellcaster on the field, I can inflict two hundred points of direct damage to your life-points!" Skilled Dark Magician fires a dark violet blast at Daisuke, hitting him causing him to yelp as he loses 200 life-points. Yuka says, in a cold serious tone, "Now, thanks to my magician's effect, he gains a spell counter when a spell card is placed!" One of Skilled Dark Magician's orbs lit up and Yuka yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Now, attack!" Skilled Dark Magician fires a dark violet blast at Shining Angel, destroying him, and since it was in defense mode, Daisuke doesn't lose any life-points.

Just then, a card comes out of Daisuke's card and Daisuke says, taking out the card, "You've activated my angel's ability, wench! Now, I can pick up a Light attribute monster with fifteen hundred attack points or less from my deck and summon it to the field! And I chose W-Wing Catapult!" Soon after, W-Wing Catapult (1300/1500) appears on the field in attack mode.

Yuka says, in a cold serious tone while sending two cards into the spell/trap slots, "Finally, I'll place two face-down cards and end my turn!"

Current Score:

Daisuke: 7800

Yuka 2: 8000

Daisuke says, drawing his card, "It's my turn, dork!" Daisuke says, with an evil sly smile as his Field Spell card slot opens, "Now, prepare to enter your worst nightmare, bitch! The Seal of Orichalcos!"

Yuka and Ryoga gasp in shock and Ryoga yells out, pleadingly, "Don't…!" After Daisuke puts the cards into the Field Spell slot and it closes up, there is a bright sinister green light as the Seal of Orichalcos surrounds the two duelists while the mark of the Orichalcos appears on Daisuke's forehead with red in his eyes.

Akane asks, perplexed, "What's that weird light!"

Just then, Cologne's voice calls out, seriously, "That's the Seal of Orichalcos!" Akane looks to see Cologne and Happosai, fully conscious. Cologne says, in a serious tone, "It's a horrible Field Spell card that once the loser loses his or her soul."

Akane yells out, shocked, "Loses their soul!" Akane calls out to Daisuke, seriously, "Daisuke, get rid of that spell now!"

Cologne says, in a plain tone, "It's too late! Once the Seal of Orichalcos is played, it can't be taken away unless with a soul."

Daisuke says, with an evil sly smile, "That's right, old ghoul! Now, W-Wing Catapult, feel the power of the Orichalcos!" Just then, W-Wing Catapult gains the mark of the Orichalcos and Daisuke says, with a dark cold sly smile, "The power of the Orichalcos gives my monsters a five hundred power bonus!" W-Wing Catapult's stats increase from 1300/1500 to 1800/1800.

Yuka yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Whenever, you play a spell card, my magician gains another spell counter!" Soon enough, Skilled Dark Magician gains another spell counter on himself.

Daisuke says, placing another card on the duel disk, "Now, I summon V-Tiger Jet in attack mode!" Immediately, V-Tiger Jet (1600/1800-2100/1800) appears on the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on itself and red glowing eyes. Daisuke calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Now, V-Tiger Jet, attack her worthless magician!" V-Tiger Jet fires a barrage of missiles at Skilled Dark Magician, destroying him, and causing Yuka to scream as she loses 200 life-points. Just then, the shackles around the necks of Ryoga, Akane, Happosai, and Cologne activate and the four of them yelps in pain as they are shocked.

Yuka calls out, horrified, "Akane!"

When the shock stops, Akane yells out, stunned, "What's going on!"

Hikaru says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Oh right! Whenever your dorky friend loses life points, then you four get shocked!"

Ryoga yells out, angrily, "That's sick!"

Ranko says, with a dark cold sly smile, "No, this is revenge!"

Daisuke yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Now, W-Wing Catapult, direct attack!" W-Wing Catapult then fires a barrage of missiles at Yuka and she screams in shock as they hit around her and she loses 1800 more life-points. The shackles activate again and Ryoga, Akane, Happosai, and Cologne howl in extreme pain and agony as they are shocked again. When the shocking stops, Daisuke yells out, with a cold serious tone, "And I remove these two from play in order to summon out my VW-Tiger Catapult in attack mode!" The two monsters fly into the air and combine themselves to VW-Tiger Catapult (2000/2100-2500/2100) appearing on the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on its forehead. Daisuke says, with an evil sly grin, "It's your move."

Current Score:

Daisuke: 7800

Yuka 2: 6000

Yuka says, drawing her card, "It's my turn!" Yuka says, placing a card onto the duel disk, "I'll place a face-down monster card in defense mode and end my turn!" Soon enough, a holographic card appears horizontally on Yuka's side of the field.

Daisuke says, drawing his card, "It's my move!" Daisuke says, sending a card to the graveyard slot, "Now, I'll activate the special ability of my Tiger Catapult! When I discard a card to the graveyard, I can switch your monster card to any position I want and I choose attack mode!"

Yuka says, pressing a button on her duel disk, "I don't think so! I play my Divine Wrath trap card!" One of Yuka's face-down cards was the Divine Wrath counter trap card and Yuka says, sending a card from her hand to the graveyard, "By sending a card from my hand to the graveyard, not only that your Tiger Catapult's effect is negated, your monster is destroyed!" Tiger Catapult was destroyed after its effect is negated.

Daisuke says, putting a card onto his duel disk, "So what! I've still got others, wench! I summon Snipe Hunter in attack mode!" Just then, Snipe Hunter (1500/600-2000/600) appears on the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on its forehead and red glowing eyes. Daisuke says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Now, the special ability of my Snipe Hunter activates! By sending a card from my hand to the graveyard, the roulette on Snipe Hunter's gun is spun and if it lands on any number other than one or six, then I can destroy any card on the field! Let's start with that face-down!" After Daisuke sends a card into the graveyard slot, the roulette on Snipe Hunter's gun spins and it lands on a two. Daisuke yells out, with a dark cold sly grin, "It lands on a two which means that face-down is destroyed!" Snipe Hunter shoots the face-down card, which was the Spell Shield Type-8 counter trap card and Daisuke says, sending another card into the graveyard slot, "Next, that face-down monster!" The roulette spins for a second and it slows down until it lands on a five.

Yuka yells out, horrified, "No!"

Daisuke yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Now, let her have it!" Snipe Hunter fires his gun at Yuka's face-down monster card which was revealed to be Magician of Faith (300/400) when it was destroyed. Daisuke yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Snipe Hunter, attack her directly!" Snipe Hunter fires a powerful blast at Yuka, hitting her hard causing her to scream out in shock while Akane, Ryoga, Cologne, and Happosai howls in extreme pain and agony as they were shocked by their shackles when Yuka loses 2000 life-points.

Yuka yells out, horrified, "Akane!"

Nabiki yells out, in a horrified tone, "Akane, no!" Nabiki turns to Ranko and she yells out, seriously, "Okay, Saotome, you've made your point! Do you really want Akane to suffer that greatly!"

Ranko yells out, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Hey shut up, bitch! As if I care what happens to your fucking tomboy whore of a sister! As far as I'm concerned, Akane Tendo is like a mega annoying ulcer that I'm desperately trying to get rid of!" Akane winches at Ranko's harsh words, which was even harsher than her usual 'uncute' and 'tomboy' insults. Ranko yells out to Daisuke, in a dark cold serious tone, "Yo Daisuke, make sure that fucking tomboy bitch even greater pain along with her dorky friend or you'll be hearing it from me! You got that!"

Daisuke says, with an evil sly smile, "I understand, Ranma! Akane Tendo is going to pay for her crimes towards you!"

Current Score:

Daisuke: 7800

Yuka 2: 4000

Akane says, plainly, "What's going on with Ranma? I know that he may be a jerk, at times, but this is beyond his usual attitude towards me! It's a bit harsher!"

Happosai says, in a plain tone, "Ranma has been brainwashed by the Orichalcos."

Akane says, perplexed, "Brainwashed? How? Ranma's too strong for that!"

Cologne says, in a solemn tone, "True, however, even the strongest will has to have a weak spot. Dartz aimed right for the source of Son-in-law's willpower, you?"

Akane gasps in shock and she says, perplexed, "Me? What's that got to do with…?" Just then, the memories of how Dartz's plot to set her and Ranma, appeared in her mind, and Akane says, horrified, "You mean…that tape…you and Shampoo coming here it was…!"

Cologne says, in a serious tone, "Yes! Dartz was counting on Shampoo and I to come over to Duel Academy to confront Son-in-law about this, thinking that he finally has chosen Shampoo, but how a fool I was, without realizing that it was a trap to have Dartz get his hands on Ranma. My guess it happened, right after, Shampoo and my arrival to Academy Island and Ranma's brutal attack on Shampoo."

Akane gasps in shock and she yells out, shocked, "Ranma attacked Shampoo too! He did the same with me! I knew that he was upset with me, but he didn't think that he'd take it that personally!"

Cologne says, in a serious tone, "However, the worst has yet to come, after his attack, Ranma appears and duels Shampoo. Shampoo became the first victim that Ranma has claimed! Also others followed Mousse, Takewaki and Kodachi Kuno, Mikado Sanzenin, and Asuza Shiratori were all victims that Ranma and the Orichalcos has taken."

Akane has a horror stroke look on her face and she thinks in her mind, "It's true! That fake tape! Dartz must have used called Shampoo's phone while using Ranma's voice and like an idiot, I fell for it!" Akane calls out to Ranko, pleadingly, "Ranma, please to me, you, your mother, and sister are being used! Dartz set the both of you up! He's lying! Tell Daisuke to stop this duel!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold angered tone, "Why the hell should I? And furthermore, stop playing dumb! I already know about you and Ryoga's plot to mess me up! You're the one, who set Shampoo that tape just to make me look bad to everyone else! You're the one, who made that map and mailed it to Ryoga, knowing about his inferior sense of direction! And you knew about Ryoga's curse all along and was trying to get out of our engagement while trying to make it that it was my fault!"

Akane yells out, pleadingly, "I didn't do that! Ranma, you know me better than that!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold angered snort, "Ha! Yeah I know who you are! Akane Tendo, age sixteen, you never listened, you never gave me a chance to explain any perverted situation that I may be in with those girls, Kodachi, Ukyo, and mostly Shampoo, you always hit first and never asked a question later! You jumped to conclusions that were ninety-nine percent wrong! And personally, I saw the truth! I thought that you were better than I gave you credit for Akane, but you are the no better than the other girls that 'drooled' over me back in the Nermia!"

Akane asks Ranko, perplexed, "What are you talking about Ranma?"

Ranko rolls her eyes and asks Akane, darkly and coldly, "Hello! Didn't you think that I wanted a 'new start'? Did you think that I was tired of the fiancée junk back in Nermia! Why I even bother risking my life to save yours! It's because I loved you!"

Akane gasps in shock and Ranko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "And do you know why loved you! Huh! Out of the girls, I've seen and met, you're the only one that has ever treated me like a regular person! While others like Ukyo, Shampoo, and Kodachi Kuno treated me as if I'm some kind of prize and tried cheap tricks to win me over, you did not! You treated me as if I'm a regular person, in which I am! Sure, we had a rocky start in the past, but I grew to like you and to love you!"

Akane is shocked by this and she says, stunned, "Ranma, I never knew…"

Ranko says, in a dark cold nasty tone, "Yeah! You didn't! In every time that the subject translates to any girl like Shampoo, you intend to get jealous, without hearing my side of the story first! I'm sick of it! I'm sick of trying to do things for you, but ended up with you hitting me! I'm sick of your 'hit first and ask questions later' attitude! Of course, why am I ranting here! To you, I'm nothing more than a 'sex-changing perverted freak'!"

Akane shakes her head and tells Ranko, begging tone, "No way! I did love you, Ranma! I didn't care about your curse! I loved you for you, Ranma! I really did!"

Ranko yells out, with a dark cold angered tone and several tears coming down her eyes, "Then why in the hell didn't you believe me that I didn't call Shampoo here, huh? I bet you anything that if it was Ryoga that took my place, you'll act differently!"

Akane yells out, seriously, "That is not true, Ranma! With Ryoga, he's just a good friend to me! That's it! Just a good friend!"

Ranko says, with a dark cold sneer, "Friends! Oh right! Which brings me to this point, Akane! When I first showed up as a girl, you told me your name and you asked me if I wanted to be friends. It was three years after I thought that Hotaru was dead without knowing that Pop knocked her out cold and leaving her into the forest! However, when you found out that I was really a guy, you rejected me on the spot, hurting me in the much worse possible way!"

Akane was taken back at this and she says, pleadingly, "Ranma, I hated boys back them! I hated them! Not only you! Your curse really freaked me out, but I've gotten used to it now! I don't care if you change into a girl! I really don't!"

Ranko yells out, in a dark cold angered, harsh, and nasty tone, "Ha! So you say! Almost most to the times when Ryoga comes and fights with me, you're siding with him! I still remember the time when Ryoga was acting weird and wanted to pick a fight with me, you say that it's my fault it's always my fault! The time with the Cursed Cave when after getting glomped by Kodachi Kuno, that you went with Ryoga and that was after I was also glomped by Ukyo and Shampoo! The time that Kodachi paralyzes me on your roof and tried to kiss me, sure you kicked her off of me, but you left me there! Next, there was the time that I was trapped in the Neko-ken for the first time that I arrived in Nermia and kissed you, you took it to where that it could be anyone else. Then there was the time that you went with Ryoga when he was learning his Bakusai Tenketsu, just because he was 'brave enough' to eat your poisonous cooking! There are times that you keep breaking off the engagement as well like the time that we met Shampoo, you automatically assumes that I'm 'cheating' on you whenever Shampoo is sleeping on the same futon as me when I don't even know it or when Shampoo gave me that stupid so-called 'Kiss of Marriage' and the time that you callously handed me over to Nabiki when that one time when I chose to rescue her rather than her from falling off the balcony, never mind the fact that you were the one who broke the balcony in the first place, endangering Nabiki! When Shampoo's Amazon sisters, Lin Lin and Ran Ran came back a second time to take out all of Shampoo's rivals, you left me to them, saying that you simply didn't want to help me because she believed that it had nothing to do with her. Finally, there was the time that Ryoga and I were turned into kids and you were pampering him than you were with me, your own fiancé, and when he was attacking me, you just ignore it! As you can see, I'm sick of being your emotional punching bag and scapegoat of you and Ryoga's problems as if I don't have my own problems already! Master Dartz agreed to help me with the other fiancées that bastard of a father callously has given me, including yours! Actually, I'm glad that you canceled our engagement, Akane, since I wouldn't be caught dead being engaged to an uncute and short-tempered bitch like you! In other words, Akane Tendo, after seeing your true colors, I FUCKING HATE YOU!"

Those words hit Akane right in heart and she lowers her head while she feels her heart break into a million pieces and tears were falling from her eyes and she lets out a few sobs after hearing Ranko's dark cold harsh words and Akane thinks in her mind, solemnly, "Ranma! He hates me! He was in love with me! And now, he hates me! We could have had a better relationship, if it hadn't been for me, allowing my emotions to get the better of me, since I feel the same way about him too! I love Ranma and I still do! But now, it may be too late!" But then, Akane gives an angered glaze at Dartz, remembering it was his fault that Ranma was brainwashed by setting her and Ranma up.

Akane says, lowly and angrily, "You monster! You did this…" Akane yells out, with pure anger and rage in her eyes as her bright battle aura totally erupts, "I'LL KILL YOU FOR THIS, YOU ASSHOLE!"

Hotaru yells at Akane, slamming her fist to Akane's stomach, "Shut the fuck up, dobe! You're not going to make your threats to Master Dartz!"

Akane says, weakly, "If you want to duel someone, why not me? It's me, who you obviously hate! Leave Yuka, Sayuri, and Nabiki, out of this!"

Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "I can't do that! You see, the point of this revenge is that you watch as the souls of your dorky friends and your bitchy sister is taken away right in front of your eyes. This is the revenge, I wanted for a good while and you can be damned that I'm going to enjoy every last bit!"

Inuyasha says, with a dark cold sly grin, "Besides, they wouldn't have gotten themselves into this mess, if it hadn't been for you! While you were in the Society of Light, you brainwashed your two friends, the ones that are sisters to you, to a sadistic freak of nature!"

Akane yells out, shocked, "What!"

Cologne tells Akane, in a serious tone, "This is a hard concept for you to understand, Akane, but you were brainwashed by the Light of Destruction, a terrible being, that is the cause of histories major disasters on this planet. When you were brainwashed, you brought your friends along with you."

Akane says, horrified, "I'm the cause of Yuka and Sayuri brainwashed by another sadistic asshole!"

Mayumi says, with a dark cold sneer, "With a friend like you, Tendo, who needs enemies!"

Yuka yell out, coldly while sending cold angered glares at Dartz, "Dartz, I swear! I'll never forgive you for this! You're going to pay for what you've done, you monster! Starting now!" Yuka tore a card from her deck and she says, putting a card on her duel disk, "I remove my Magician of Faith and Skilled Dark Magician to special summon Chaos Sorcerer in attack mode!" Soon after, the Magician of Faith (300/400) and Skilled Dark Magician (1900/1700) monster cards were taken out from Yuka's graveyard slot and Chaos Sorcerer (2300/2000) comes to the field in attack mode. Yuka says, placing a card on her duel disk, "Now, I summon Skilled White Magician on the field in attack mode!" Soon enough, Skilled White Magician (1700/1900) appears on the field in attack mode. Yuka yells out, in a cold strong tone, "Now, thanks to the special ability of Chaos Sorcerer, I can remove from play one face-up monster on the field from play and I choose your Snipe Hunter!" Immediately, Snipe Hunter had disappeared as it was removed from play and Yuka says, in a cold serious tone, "Of course, my sorcerer can't attack this turn, but it's worth it to make that fucking son of a bitch pay for what he's done! Skilled White Magician, direct attack!" Skilled White Magician fires a white blast at Daisuke.

Daisuke presses a button on his duel disk and he calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "I play my Sakuretsu Armor trap card!" Daisuke's face-down card is Sakuretsu Armor and Daisuke says, with an evil sly smile, "Thanks to this card, not only that your attack is canceled your magician is destroyed!"

Yuka yells out, shocked, "No!" Skilled White Magician's attack was reflected and hits Skilled White Magician, destroying him. Yuka says, in a cold snarl, "My turn is over!"

Daisuke says, in a dark cold serious tone while drawing his card, "So is this duel!" Daisuke says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "First, I play Pot of Greed! This allows me to draw two cards!" Daisuke draws two cards from his deck, sends one card into the spell/trap slot and he says, "Next, I'll play Graceful Charity! Now, I can pick up three new cards as long as I discard two!" Daisuke draws three cards, discards two, and he says, in a dark cold plain tone while sending another card into the spell/trap slot, "Nice try, loser! Later! I play my Different Dimension Hanger!"

Yuka calls out, in a cold strong tone, "Hold it! I play my magician's ability! He gains a spell counter since I spell card was played and I count three spell cards played!" Soon after, one of Skilled White Magician's spell orbs glowed.

Then, a large violet hole above Daisuke and he says, with a dark cold serious tone, "So what! I now remove three Union monsters from play and when I summon a monster that they can be combined with, I can return them to the field!" Daisuke then takes out Y-Dragon Head (1500/1600), Z-Metal Tank (1500/1300), and another W-Wing Catapult (1300/1500) and puts them in his pocket. Daisuke says, putting one card on his duel disk, "And then I play my X-Head Cannon in attack mode!" Just then X-Head Cannon (1800/1500-2300/1500) appears on the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on its forehead and its eyes glow red. Daisuke says, with a dark cold serious tone while taking out two cards from his pocket, "And now, I can call out my Y-Dragon Head and Z-Metal Tank as well!" Just then Y-Dragon Head (1500/1600-2000/1600) and Z-Metal Tank (1500/1300-2000/1300) come out of the hole in the sky and onto the field in attack mode with marks of the Orichalcos on their foreheads and their eyes glowing red. Daisuke says, sending a card into the spell/trap, "Now, I play Premature Burial! At the cost of eight hundred points, I can bring back a monster from my graveyard like my second V-Tiger Jet!" Just then as Daisuke's life-points decrease by 800 points, another V-Tiger Jet (1600/1800-2100/1800) appears on the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos and its eyes glow red. Daisuke then yells out, with a dark cold serious tone, "And with him on the field, my second W-Wing Catapult come back!" Out of the hole above Daisuke, his second W-Wing Catapult (1300/1500-1800/1500) comes to the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos appearing on its forehead as well as the red glow in its eyes. Daisuke yells out, with a dark cold serious tone, "I remove them from play to summon another VW-Tiger Catapult in attack mode!" The two monsters to combine into another VW-Tiger Catapult (2000/2100-2500/2100) in attack mode with a mark of the Orichalcos and its eyes, glowing red. Daisuke yells out, with a dark cold serious tone, "And now, I remove them from play in order to combine them and form XYZ-Dragon Cannon!" Daisuke's monsters fly into the sky and combine themselves into XYZ-Dragon Cannon (2800/2600-3300/2600) in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on the Y-Dragon Head part of its body. Daisuke yells out, with a dark cold strong tone, "And now, I remove them from play to bring out my ultimate V to Z Dragon Catapult Cannon!" The two monster flies up into the sky as Daisuke takes the cards and puts them in his pocket while putting a Fusion monster card from his Extra deck on her duel disk causing the two monsters to combine to form VWXYZ Dragon Catapult Cannon (3000/2800-3500/2800) in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos, appearing on its forehead and its eyes glows red. Daisuke says, with a dark cold serious tone, "Now, I play his ability and remove one of your cards from play and I choose your sorcerer!" Soon after, Yuka gasps as her Chaos Sorcerer vanishes as it is removed from play. Daisuke yells out, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "And to finish this duel! I play Limiter Removal!"

Yuka yells out, horrified, "Oh no!"

Nabiki says, fearfully, "That card would double that monster's attack points! Which means…!"

Happosai says, worriedly, "This is going to hurt!"

After VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon's stats increase from 3500/2800 to 7000/2800, Daisuke yells out, with a dark cold strong tone, "That's right! This attack will strip you of your soul! And now, I attack your magician with my Dragon Catapult Cannon!" Dragon Catapult Cannon fires its weapons at Skilled White Magician, destroying it in a huge explosion, and causing Yuka to scream out in shock while Akane, Ryoga, Cologne, and Happosai screams out in extreme pain and agony as 5300 life-points was taken out of Yuka's score, ending the duel immediately.

Final Score:

Daisuke: 7000

Yuka 2: 0

With the end of the duel, the holograms fades away as the Seal of Orichalcos surrounds Yuka 2 and she cries out as her soul is taken.

Akane says, weakly, "Yuka, no!"

Yuka yells out, in horror, "NO! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING…!" However, she doesn't get to finish as she collapses to the ground as her soul is taken while the seal fades away from the ground as her five GX metals flew out of her pocket and the Seal of Orichalcos card with her horrified expression appears. Daisuke walks over to Yuka's soulless form and he takes the five metals from Yuka's body.

Akane says, weakly, "What happened to her?"

Cologne says, groaning in pain, "As of the fate of those, who lose an Orichalcos duel, their souls are taken away from them."

Akane says, worriedly, "So, you're saying that…! Poor Yuka is gone!"

Happosai says, solemnly, "That's right! And the souls taken are fueled to a horrible monster called the Great Leviathan and it'll make Saffron look like a mere puppy compared to it."

Mayumi says, with an evil sly smile, "I wouldn't be too worried out your dorky friend, Tendo! You'll soon join her, but first, your other dorky friend is next." After Daisuke drags Yuka 2's body away, Hiroshi approaches at the same spot as Daisuke with a Chaos Duel Disk attached to his left wrist while the unconscious Sayuri was dragged to the dueling ground by Allie with Megumi, who has a bucket of cold water in her hands, with her as Allie throws her to the ground.

Megumi yells out, throwing the cold water at Sayuri, "Rise and shine, dweeb!" After the water was splashed at Sayuri's face, Sayuri yelps as she regains consciousness and she yells out, shocked, "What the…! Who's the wiseguy!" Sayuri looks at Yuka 2's soulless form and she exclaims, horrified, "Yuka! No! Don't tell me that they got you too!"

Hiroshi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Alright, wench, get on your feet! We're dueling here and now!"

Sayuri looks at Hiroshi and she says, worriedly, "Hiroshi, please! I'm begging you! You can't allow Dartz to do this to you! Please fight it!"

Hiroshi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Why the hell should I fight the Orichalcos! It makes me feel stronger! It's has more power than you fucking Light would ever have!"

Sayuri says, in a cold serious tone, "You're right, Hiroshi! The Light has more power, but I know that's not enough to convince you otherwise! When I beat you, we'll finally be together under the Light and all the souls, especially Yuka will be avenged!"

Sayuri takes out her Academy style duel disk and Hiroshi says, in a dark cold snort, "That's not going to happen!" They activate their duel disks as their life-point meter went to 8000 life-points and they draw five cards.

"Game on!" Hiroshi and Sayuri say in unison.

Akane says, worriedly, "Sayuri, don't go through this!"

Sayuri says, drawing her card, "I'll start!" Sayuri says, placing a card on her duel disk, "I summon Zombie Master in attack mode and end my turn!" Immediately, Zombie Master (1800/0) appears on the field in attack mode.

Hiroshi says, drawing his card, "It's my turn!" Hiroshi says, putting a card into the spell/trap slot, "First, I activate Pot of Greed! This allows me to draw two cards from my deck!" Hiroshi draws two cards from his deck and he says, with a dark cold sly grin as his Field Spell Card opens, "Now, I'll play the Seal of Orichalcos!"

Sayuri yells out, horrified, "Hiroshi, don't! That card is pure evil! Don't play it!"

Hiroshi yells out, sending the card onto the slot, "No can do, dweeb!" After the slot closes up, there is a bright sinister green light as the Seal of Orichalcos surrounds the two duelists while the mark of the Orichalcos appears on Hiroshi's forehead with red in his eyes.

Ryoga says, in a horrified tone, "No…! Now, whoever loses…"

Cologne says, horrified, "…Loses their soul!"

Just then, Silent Swordsman LV3 (1000/1000-1500/1000) comes to the field in attack mode with the mark of the Orichalcos on his forehead and his eyes, glowed red in color. Hiroshi says, sending another card into the spell/trap slot, "Next, I play my Allied Force continuous spell card! Now, my swordsman gains two hundred points for every warrior on the field." Silent Swordsman's stats increase from 1500/1000 to 1700/1000.

Sayuri says, in a cold serious tone, "It's still no match for my Zombie Master!"

Hiroshi says, sending another card into the spell/trap slot, "True, but thanks to my Mage Power, it gains five hundred attack points for every spell and trap I have on the field!"

Sayuri yells out, shocked, "You're kidding!"

Hiroshi yells out, in a dark cold strong tone as Silent Swordsman's stats increase from 1700/1000 to 2700/1000, "Does this look like a joke! Now, Silent Swordsman, attack her pathetic Zombie Master!" Silent Swordsman charges after Zombie Master, slashes it in half, destroying it, and Akane, Ryoga, Cologne, and Happosai cries out in pain as they are shocked by their shackles while Sayuri loses 900 life-points.

Sayuri yells out, horrified, "Akane! What's happening to her!"

Hiroshi says, with an evil sly smile, "Oh right! Whenever you loses life-points, your backstabbing friend gets a shock to her system!"

Sayuri says, in a cold angered tone, "You're going to pay for that!"

Hiroshi says, with an evil sly smile, "I'd love to see you fail! I'll end my turn!"

Sayuri says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "Next, I'll activate Cold Wave! Now, until my next turn, neither one of us can play any spell nor trap cards or place any face-downs! And with that, I'll end my turn!"

Hiroshi says, drawing a card, "What a desperate move! Since, it's my Standby Phase, I can send my level three swordsman for Silent Swordsman Level Five!"

Hiroshi draws until he is holding five cards in his hand and he says, sending a card into the spell/trap slot, "Next, I'll play Level Modulation!

Sayuri gasps in shock and Happosai yells out, shocked, "That would end the duel and leave us with serious bruises!"

Akane calls out to Ranko, pleadingly, "Ranma, please help!"

Ranko says, with a dark cold snort with her arms crossed, "Gee Akane, why would you need my help when you have your 'precious Ryoga' there to help and you happen to be the 'best martial artist in Nermia'! You got yourself into this mess, now it's your turn to bail yourself out!"

With the end of the duel, the holograms fade away from the field and the Seal of Orichalcos encompasses Sayuri causing her to cry out as her soul is taken from her body.

Ranko yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "It's never going to be enough until you two pay for what you've done!" Soon after, Nabiki was thrown to the ground by Michael and he freed her from her ropes.

Ranko says, in a dark cold plain tone, "Don't even think about escaping, Tendo! If you do, then your slut-bag sister is going to experience even more pain and you wouldn't want that now, do you?"

Nabiki says, with a serious glare, "Ranma, why are you doing this? This is enough! Even you wouldn't want Akane in this much pain."

Ranko says, in a dark cold plain tone, "I'm sorry, but you must be mistaken me with someone else! Either you duel or your fucking sister pays the price!"

Nabiki says, in an annoyed growl knowing that she was cornered, "You win!"

Akane calls out, worriedly, "Nabiki, don't! Let me take over!" As Akane's pleas were ignored, Sayuri's soulless form was dragged away by Hotaru and Nabiki was given an Academy styled Duel Disk and she then attaches it to her left wrist while Ranko places her Chaos Duel disk on her left wrist.

I can only use this card when Red-Eyes is on the field and I can't attack with him this turn, but I can inflict twenty-four hundred points of direct damage to your life-points! Red-Eyes, let her have it!" Red-Eyes Black Dragon fires a dark violet fire ball at Nabiki, hitting her hard, causing her to scream out in pain as she is burned while Akane, Ryoga, Cologne, and Happosai cry out in pain as they are shocked while Nabiki loses 2400 life-points! Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "Did I forget to mention that I'm using Yukimura's abilities against you?"

Akane asks, worriedly, "What does he mean by that? Does Keiko have some kind of special power?"

Happosai says, in a worried tone, "Yes! Your friend, Keiko Yukimura, is one of those Psychic Duelists!"

Akane yells out, shocked, "Psychic Duelists! I've heard about them! They came inflicted real damage in a duel! Does that mean that Ranma is one of them too!"

Cologne says, in a serious tone, "No! You see Ranma has something else! A Kekkai Genkai called the 'Celestial Embodiment', a legendary Kekkai Genkai!" Soon after, Cologne quickly explains about the 'Celestial Embodiment' Kekkai Genkai and its history and origins as well as Nodoka having that Kekkai Genkai and Evolutionary Enchantment, which meant that Ranma and Hotaru have that ability as well.

Akane states, stunned, "You mean that they can gain other people's abilities!"

Ryoga says, in a serious tone, "That's right! Ranma has already gained my Bakusei Tenketsu and Shishi Hokodan without the depression needed as well as Sasuke Uchiha's Sharingan and Neji Hyuga's Byakugan! Right now, Ranma is using Keiko's 'powers' against Nabiki!"

Akane yells out, worriedly, "Nabiki would be killed!"

Ranko says, in a dark cold snort, "Don't have a cow, tomboy! I'm only using enough power to cause your fucking sister pain, not to kill her!" Ranko places a card onto her duel disk and she calls out, "Now, I'll release my Red-Eyes Black Dragon for Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon!" Red-Eyes Black Dragon turns into dark red and orange flames and those flames turn into Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon (2400/2000-3500/2000) in attack mode as its eyes glow red and the mark of the Orichalcos appears on its forehead.

With the end of the duel, the holograms fades away as the Seal of Orichalcos surrounds Nabiki and she cries out as the Seal of Orichalcos takes her soul.

Nabiki yells out, in horror, "NO! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!"

Akane exclaims, horrified, "Nabiki, no!" Soon after, Nabiki collapses to the ground as her soul is taken while the seal fades away from the ground and the Seal of Orichalcos card appears on the field with a picture of Nabiki inside of it.

Ranko walks over to pick the card up and she says, with an evil sly grin, "Well, one less Tendo to worry about!"

Akane, horrified by this sight, says, in a grief-stricken tone, "Nabiki…no!" Akane lowers her head down, unable to bear the sight of her soulless sister's form and Ryoga thinks in his mind, angrily, "Ranma, this is all…No! It's not Ranma's fault! It wasn't his fault in the first place!" Ryoga thinks in his mind, angrily glaring at Dartz, "Dartz, this is all your fault! You're going to pay for making Akane cry and framing her for what happened between her and Ranma!"

Ranko says, looking at her former fiancée and comrades, "And then, there was one! One of you will be next soul taken, but it wouldn't be from a duel!" Ranko looks at Light and he asks, "Hey Light, mind if I borrow that Orichalcos Note?"

Light takes out his Orichalcos Note and says, tosses over to Ranko, "Sure, Ranma!"

Ranko catches it and she says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Thank you!" Ranko then tells her former fiancée and comrades, "Now, I have to choose wisely and it has to be someone, who has mostly screwed with me the most in my Life out of you four. And I've chosen one already! Sorry…freak!"

Happosai gasps in shock and Ranko says, opening the Orichalcos Note, "Yes, you would be the one that's the last soul to go!"

Happosai yells out, struggling to get out, "No wait! Ranma, please! Don't!"

Ranko says, taking out a pen from her pocket while writing Happosai's name, "How many times have you screwed with me, old man! Trying to get me into my girl form to either model girls' underwear for you or groping me as well as my sister, constantly. Then, there was the time with the Ultimate Moxibustion Pressure Point, you informed every one of my enemies and had them attack me when I was physically weak as well as other nasty situations that you put me through, just because I foiled one of your twisted panty raids! Even since, you came into my life, you've done nothing but made it into an even more of a living Hell and it's time that your dent will be paid, old freak! It's payback time!" Soon enough, Happosai's name was already in the Orichalcos Note and Ranko says, with an evil sly grin, "Goodbye, old freak! As disgusting as your soul is it will be very good nutrient for the Great Beast!" Happosai's forehead gained the Seal of Orichalcos mark on it and he glows eerie green as he screams in shock as his soul was taken away from his body and his small body becomes soulless.

Akane yells out, horrified, "Grandfather Happosai!"

Cologne says, in a serious tone, "Even though that old goat was an annoying pest, even he didn't deserve such a fate."

Dartz asks Ranko, "Well, Mister Saotome, what are you plans for these three?"

Ranko says, with an evil sly grin, "What do you think, sir? The old ghoul, I'll deal with her eventually, but first with Hibiki and Tendo, I'm going to give them a simple of the amount of pain that they've caused me in the past." Ranko takes out a remote control from her pocket and presses a button that was used to open Ryoga's and Akane's restraints, dropping them to the ground.

Akane glares at Dartz and she says, in a snarl, "You jerk!" Akane jumps to her feet and she charges at Dartz with a killing intent. However, Hikaru appears in front of her and kicks her in the chin, throwing her airborne. Hikaru disappears with his incredible speed and reappears in front of Akane, and then stomps onto Akane's chest, throwing her back to the ground and skids around the floor until making a stop.

Ryoga yells out, horrified while running to Akane's fallen form, "Akane!" Just then, Inuyasha appears in front of Ryoga, making him stop, and Inuyasha says, with a dark cold sly smile, "I've got a present for you!" Inuyasha lands a bone crunching blow to his chest causing Ryoga to gasp as the wind was knocked out of him and he coughs out a lot of blood as he falls to his knees. On the meanwhile, Hikaru lands in front of Akane, who was slowly standing on her feet.

Hikaru asks Ranko, with an evil sly smile, "Hey Ranma, since you've helped me with those bullies, can I help you with this bitch!"

Inuyasha says, with an evil sly smile, "And with P-chan's resistance to pain, it would be even more fun if I fight him in my human form! You've helped me with that backstabbing miko, allow me to return the favor."

Ranko says, with an evil sly smile, "Sure, but don't land the finishing blow! I want that honor for myself! So, be careful not to take it too far!"

Hikaru and Inuyasha look at each other with evil sly smirks as Inuyasha turns into his human form and Hikaru says, with a dark cold sly grin, "You heard the man, Tendo! Let's get start! Prepare to get whooped!"

"Aquarius Eternal Engage!"

"Big Bang Eternal Engage!"

In mixture of light blue and eerie green lights, Inuyasha and Hikaru have transformed into their Eternal Warriors form.

Akane winches in pain as she crutches her right side and Naruto yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Hey don't whoop her too bad, Hikaru, save the tomboy for me!"

Hotaru says, with an evil sly grin, "But two against one wouldn't be fair, now would it!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly smile, "You know what they say, 'All's fair in love and war'!" Eternal Aquarius calls out to Akane, in a dark cold serious tone, "Hey Tendo, let's play! I don't got all day!"

Akane thinks in her mind, worriedly, "Oh man! What's with these guys! It's like they aren't human! I thought only Hotaru can hit this hard!"

Eternal Aquarius yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Well, if you're not going to make the first move, then I will!" Eternal Aquarius vanishes from sight with his super-speed and reappears giving a hard punch to Akane's right cheek and rams his left elbow to her abdomen, knocking her down hard.

Ryoga yells out, running over to Akane's aid, "Akane, I'm coming!" Just then, Eternal Big Bang appears by Ryoga's side and he says, with an evil sly smile, "Hey where are you going, P-chan? It's my turn to play with you!" Eternal Big Bang grabs Ryoga's head, slams it to his left knee, four times, and kicks Ryoga's face, with his right foot, throwing him away as he hits the ground.

On the meanwhile, Eternal Big Bang was kicking Akane's chin about four times, throwing her further away and Eternal Big Bang calls out, in a dark cold mocking tone while stomping on Akane's stomach, "What's wrong, Tendo! You don't like to play anymore!" Eternal Big Bang then finishes 'tap dancing on Akane's abdomen and jumps off of her, causing Akane to groan out in pain. As Akane groans in pain while slowly sitting up, Eternal Big Bang appears behind her and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Oh please! I thought the 'strongest martial artist in Nermia' was stronger than this! This is just pathetic!"

Ryoga slowly stands on his feet while rubbing on his right side and he says, groaning, "Akane…!" Soon enough, Eternal Big Bang appears in front of him with a dark cold sly grin. Immediately, Ryoga launches a furious barrage of fists and kicks at Eternal Big Bang, but even in human form, Eternal Big Bang manages to easily dodge all of them and slams his knee to Ryoga's chin, hard throwing him away while Ryoga croaks out, weakly, "Akane…!"

On the meanwhile, Akane was slowly standing on her feet while bearing the damage that she's received so far, which was from the electrical shocks from the duel and the ones that Eternal Aquarius had gave her. Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly smile, "Let's keep playing, alright, Tendo!" When Akane got on her feet, Eternal Aquarius grabs a fist full of Akane's hair and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Now, that's more like it! It looks like it's my turn to win, bitch!" After Eternal Aquarius throws Akane away, he fires a barrage of green energy blasts at Akane, but Ryoga quickly appears between Akane and the blasts and they hit him hard, causing him to howl loudly out in pain.

Akane looks at this and she screams out, horrified, "Ryoga!"

Eternal Aquarius yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "You wants some, huh, P-chan!" Eternal Aquarius continues to fire another barrage of energy beams at Ryoga, causing him to cry out in extreme pain and agony even louder as it tears into his shirt.

Akane yells out, horrified, "No Ryoga!" Eternal Aquarius continues to fire even more blasts towards Ryoga's way and it would be only a matter of time until even someone who has Ryoga's endurance could give out.

Cologne thinks in her mind, seriously, "It's over! Not even Ryoga can stand up with an attack that great, even with the endurance he's gotten from the Bakusai Tenketsu training, will give out!" Soon after, Eternal Aquarius stops his assault and Ryoga, who has a part of his shirt torn off and smoking, groans out in pain as he falls on his chest to the ground.

Akane runs to Ryoga's aid and she calls out, worriedly while putting away the smoke from Ryoga's form, "Ryoga, wake up! Ryoga, wake up!"

Ryoga looks at Akane and he says, weakly, "Don't worry about me, Akane-san! I'll be alright! You have to get…out of here! Ranma…he's too dangerous right now! It's not like before! He could kill you…and not feel a thing, except pleasure! Dartz…he's the one, who's to blame for all of this! He's…the one, who…set up and Ranma up! As well as those guys…they too…are brainwashed by Dartz and his rotten Orichalcos! Dartz is the one, who set them all up! You…have to get out of here…!" Soon after, Ryoga then passes out from the pain revealed from Eternal Aquarius.

Akane yells out, horrified, "Ryoga!"

Eternal Aquarius says, with an evil sly grin, "And then, there was one!"

Akane looks at Eternal Aquarius and Eternal Big Bang as they walk slowly towards her with evil smirks on their lips. Akane thinks in her mind, worriedly, "What am I going to do? It looks like I'm going to die! Ranma isn't going to help me out of this time! What can I do!"

Just then, Princess Uzi's voice calls out from Akane's mind, in a serious tone, "Akane, you have to get up in fight!"

Akane calls out, in her mind, "Who's there!"

Princess Uzi tells her, "I'm Princess Uzi, but that's not important now! You have to get up in fight! Just call out 'Starfighter Power Engage' and you'll receive my power!"

Akane says, plainly, "Okay!"

"Starfighter Power Engage!"

Soon enough, bright orange lights surround Akane and transform her into her Divine Warrior form, except with differences.

Akane's hairstyle was the same, she had a crown of golden feathers with a golden star in the middle in the forward portion of her scalp, she has a pair of red ruby jewels as her earrings, her cloth choker around her neck is orange in color, a bright orange heart in the center of the choker, her lips are red, she had on a white top that had sleeves that were ¾ inches and it shows the size and curves of her bust and up and she had on yellow fingerless gloves that reveals her well-punctured fingernails which were red colored. She also has on a gypsy style skirt that reached to her kneecaps and is triple layered with red, orange, and yellow in color, she had yellow partial see-through stockings underneath her skirt, and she has on red go-go high-heeled boots on her feet.

Eternal Aquarius says, in a dark cold snort, "Well, it seems that Tendo is ready to fight after all!"

Divine Starfighter yells out, in a strong tone, "I really didn't want to do this, but you guys leave me no choice!"

"Starfigher Screaming Cannon!"

From Divine Starfighter hands, a barrage of orange soundwaves came out and hits Eternal Aquarius and Eternal Big Bang causing them to scream out in pain.

Melody yells out, shocked, "Inuyasha!" Melody glares at Divine Starfighter and she calls out, in a dark cold angered tone, "That's it, Tendo! You're dead!"

Just then, Ranma's voice calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Stand down, Melody!" Soon after, Ranma, in his male form, appears with a dark violet aura from his body.

"Starfire Eternal Engage!"

In a mixture of eerie green and golden surrounds Ranma and transform him into Eternal Starfire. Eternal Starfire then charges after Divine Starfighter, who blasting his two comrades. When Divine Starfighter looks at this, she says, lowly, "Ranma…!" Just then, Eternal Starfire bashes Divine Starfighter hard in the chin, knocking her to the ground. Soon after, Eternal Starfire grasps Divine Starfighter by the throat with his right hand and drags her up as her feet were daggling down below.

Divine Starfighter says, croakily, "No Ranma…no!" Eternal Starfire keeps suffocating Divine Starfighter as she is slowly losing air with an evil sinister smile. Eternal Starfire lets go of Divine Starfighter's neck and kicks her hard, throwing her to a nearby wall.

Divine Starfighter says, croakily, "Ranma…please stop…!"

Eternal Starfire aims his right palm to Divine Starfighter, firing a barrage of eerie green blasts at her, only to have her barely dodging most of them. Divine Starfighter jumps into the air only to find Eternal Starfire already there as he knees her in the stomach and punched down on the back, throwing her down to the ground. Divine Starfighter lands on her hands and knees. Divine Starfighter slowly stands up and looks within the smoke to find any trace of her brainwashed former fiancé. Soon enough, Eternal Starfire charges towards her from the smoke and proceeds to bashes her multiple times, until he throws her away and she hits the ground hard.

Dartz thinks in his mind, with an evil sly smile, "Excellent, Ranma Saotome was an excellent associate that I've chosen! It will be only a matter of time until the Great Beast will rise once again!"

Cologne says, worriedly, "We're doomed!" Back in the fight, Divine Starfighter slowly stands on her feet only to have Eternal Starfire lunging after her and starts to beat the tar out of her, then kicked her away. Eternal Starfire slowly walks towards his fallen 'former' fiancée who was looking at him with fear.

Divine Starfighter asks, fearfully, "What are you going to do?" Eternal Starfire says nothing as he continues to walks towards her with his eyes filled with promise of pain and suffering. Divine Starfighter thinks in her mind, seriously, "I'm going to kick myself in the morning for this, but…!" Divine Starfighter charges after Eternal Starfire and punches him in the stomach, knocking the wind out of him, but Eternal Starfire recovers to Divine Starfighter's shock as he punches her in the air. Eternal Starfire appears above her and slams her in the back with his right elbow, throwing her back down. On the meanwhile, Ryoga was slowly regaining conscious as he opens his eyes to see Divine Starfighter getting bashed around by Eternal Starfire.

Ryoga thinks in his mind, curiously, "Who's that girl fighting Ranma…?"

Just then, a voice within Ryoga's mind calls out, sounding like a eerie and mature version of Ryoga's voice, "That's Akane Tendo also known as Princess Uzi of the Japanese Kingdom as well as Divine Starfighter!"

Ryoga calls out, in his mind, "Who's there!" Just then, the scene had turned into a pitch black on with no sign of anyone else and a male figure comes towards Ryoga as Ryoga slowly stands up to see the figure.

The figure appears to a young ancient Chinese general that looks exactly like Ryoga. This Ancient Chinese had a green astrological symbol of Leo on his forehead, wearing a dark green tunic shirt underneath a golden Chinese armor that had the astrological symbol of Leo in green with a dark green cape behind his back, dark blue pants, and black army boots. Under his right arm appears to be a Chinese battle helmet of sorts with a long green feather on top.

Ryoga asks, curiously, "Who are you?"

The Ryoga-look-a-like Ancient Chinese General replies, plainly, "Well, Ryoga, I'm you! Your past self, General Toga of the Chinese Guards!" General Toga says, solemnly, "Was until I made a mistake that brought dishonor to my country and my prince?"

Ryoga says, perplexed, "Prince?"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "Yes! Prince Kansu also known as Eternal Starfire who has been reborn to your rival, Ranma Saotome."

Ryoga says, seriously, "So, you're one of the jerks, who responsible for Prince Kansu and Princess Haruka's brainwashing!"

General Toga yells at Ryoga, annoyed, "Hey watch it! I was reborn to you remember!"

Ryoga says, perplexed, "Reborn to me!"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "That's right, Ryoga! I was buried deep within you until this moment and I've seen that you've done Ranma a great wrong."

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "Don't tell me something that I've already know! Ranma told me that it was his father's fault that I was cursed!"

General Toga says, in a plain tone, "But you don't really believe it do you, even though it's the truth! Coming from the mouth of the one person that you hated, but deep down respected as a fighter."

Ryoga says, seriously but unsure, "Of course…I…well, maybe!"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "Well, it's time that I showed you the truth!" Soon enough, the whole scene changes into a vacant lot.

Ryoga asks, curiously, "Hey where are we?"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "We're three years into the past! Does this place look familiar?"

Ryoga looks around the area until something clicked into his mind and he says, plainly, "Yes, yes I do. This is the vacant lot that I told Ranma to meet me to have our fight after he stole some bread from me, back in junior high! But he never showed!"

General Toga says, plain tone, "That's right. This is the place and time that Ranma waited for you for three days but you didn't come until the fourth day."

Ryoga yells out, shocked, "You're kidding me!"

General Toga says, with a sly smile, "That's right! This was the third day that Ranma was still waiting before he left for China."

Ryoga says, surprised, "You don't mean?"

General Toga says, pointing at a familiar male figure, "If you don't believe me then go see for yourself."

Then Ryoga sees the familiar male figure to be Ranma Saotome (Age 13), in a standard male school uniform, standing in front of large pipes.

Ryoga yells out, shocked, "That's Ranma!" Then, he saw Genma Saotome and Hotaru Saotome (Age 13), wearing a standard male uniform, coming towards Ranma.

Ryoga asks, curiously and perplexed, "Hey what's Mister Saotome and Hotaru doing here?"

Past Genma says, seriously, "Come, boy, we got get going before nightfall!"

Past Ranma says, seriously, "But Pop I promised this from school that I wait for him so that we can have our fight!"

Past Genma yells out, seriously, "We have no time for this, boy! It's been three days and he still hasn't shown up!"

Past Ranma says, plainly, "Well maybe he's still training still!" This comment made Ryoga a little teary-eyed, which was a sign that maybe the cursed bandana lad might be wrong about Ranma.

Past Hotaru says, in a snort, "Training! I've heard rumors that Ryoga actually has no sense of direction! So why should we wait three days for the moron to show up!"

Past Ranma says, in a serious tone, "Still, I promised him that we'll meet here and Ranma Saotome never runs from a fight. If he said that he'll be here then he'll here.

After hearing this comment, Ryoga says, in a quivering tone, "He believed in me. He really believed in me!"

Genma says, lowly, "If that's how you feel, son, then you left me no other choice." Genma knocked Ranma out cold with one karate chop and Hotaru yells at Genma, annoyed, "Pop, what the heck did you do that for?"

Ryoga choked in horror after what he just saw what happen and he thinks in his mind, confused, "What's going on here? Why did Mister Saotome did that?"

Genma says, in a serious tone, "We don't have time to wait!"

Hotaru says, seriously, "What's so important that we have to leave! Maybe Ranma was right! Maybe Ryoga will show! You never know!"

Genma tells Hotaru, seriously, "Foolish girl! Don't talk back to your father! Is that an understating!"

Hotaru was taken back at this, but had no choice to follow her father's orders and Genma says, turning to his unconscious son, "Forgive me, boy, but we can't waste our time waiting for one your little friends." Genma starts dragging the unconscious Ranma by the pigtail with Hotaru following.

Ryoga came out of his shocked and started going after them, yelling out, "Wait! Come Back Here!" When he hears no reply, Ryoga came fully charged at Genma, Hotaru, and Ranma and yells out, strongly, "Bring Ranma back here, you fat bastard!" Ryoga tried to knock Past Genma out but he completely went through him.

Ryoga says, perplexed, "What!" Ryoga sees Genma and Hotaru walking away from the vacant lot and Ryoga yells out, strongly, "Stop! Don't leave me here! Give me back Ranma! Come back! Come back!" But it was no use. Genma and Hotaru can't hear Ryoga's please as Genma continue to drag Ranma until they were completely out of sight.

Tears flowed from Ryoga's eyes as finally learned the reality of what truly happen on that day. Ryoga says, lowly, "It was him! It was him all along." Ryoga fell to his knees and he says, solemnly, "All this time I was blaming Ranma for running out of our fight but it was Mister Saotome that made him leave. If I knew back then I wouldn't have had follow them. If I hadn't followed them, then I wouldn't have gotten cursed! If I hadn't gotten cursed, then Akane wouldn't have found me and took care of me! Akane wouldn't have gotten hurt by Hotaru's fists for protecting me!" Ryoga banged his fist on the ground and he says, "I'm sorry Ranma. I'm so sorry."

General Toga walks over to Ryoga, places a reassuring hand on Ryoga's shoulder, and she says, "So now you finally know the truth."

Ryoga kept on crying but was able to speak and he says, "Yes ma'am! I finally realized fully that it wasn't Ranma's fault that I've seen hell."

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "I know how you feel, Ryoga! I was in love with Princess Uzi of the Japanese Kingdom and angered and jealous of Prince Kansu for being in an arranged marriage with her as well as having her heart. It was that weakness that Dartz picked up and made me an offer that I couldn't refuse! However, I didn't know about his true intensions until the attack…!" Just then, the scene changes to an ancient city of Japan and explosions and sounds of battle are heard.

Ryoga yells out, shocked, "What's that!" Ryoga runs over to get a close look and sees many of the Japanese soldiers charging with weapons and spears.

"Orichalcos Starfire Star Shower!"

"Orichalcos Starfire Star Barrage!"

Soon after, a huge barrage and shower of eerie green star shaped blasts around the Japanese causing them to scream out in extreme pain as the attacks ripped through their bodies, knocking them to the ground hard, while the attacks ended their lives.

Ryoga gasps in shock and he says, horrified, "Oh man! Don't tell me…!" Ryoga looks to see two familiar figures which appear to be Eternal Starfire and Divine Starfire.

Ryoga yells out, shocked, "Ranma! Hotaru!"

Just then, General Toga's voice calls out, "No! That's my prince and Princess Haruka who is known as Divine Starfire who has been reborn to Hotaru Saotome."

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, "Kansu! Haruka!" The two turn to see Divine Starfighter and a new Eternal Warrior, who happens to wear similar battle uniform, except with a green shirt and looked like General Toga.

General Toga says, in a plain tone, "That's the Japanese Princess Uzi and myself in my Eternal Warrior uniform as Eternal Leo!"

Memory Eternal Leo calls out, in a serious tone, "Your Highness! There's an attack in the city we must leave!"

Memory Divine Starfighter says, in a pleading tone, "Kansu, I'm so sorry! I shouldn't never doubt you!"

Memory Eternal Starfire says, in a dark cold angered tone, "That's right! You shouldn't have…nor whored yourself to my general now traitorous general!"

Memory Eternal Leo and Memory Divine Starfighter gasp in shock and horror and Memory Eternal Starfire says, in a dark cold serious tone, "That's right, Uzi! I know! I happen to hear your heavy breathing!"

Memory Divine Starfighter says, pleadingly, "Kansu, I can explain…!"

Memory Eternal Starfire yells out, in a dark cold angered tone, "Save it! I've heard it from a reliable source, you backstabbing whore! You've tarnished my honor and love and now, I'm going to make sure that you pay tenfold like I'm doing to your city!"

Memory Eternal Leo yells out, horrified, "No! My prince…don't tell me that…!"

Memory Divine Starfire says, with an evil sly smile, "That's right, traitor! My brother and I are responsible for these damages and we'll gladly show you two our new powers as a gift for betraying us, Uzi!"

Memory Eternal Starfire says, with an evil sly grin, "How was it, Toga! The taste of your betrayal!"

Memory Eternal Leo says, pleadingly, "My prince, I never meant for this to…!"

Memory Eternal Starfire yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "I'd hold my tongue if I were you, Toga! As of right now, I'll see to it that you are released from your post since you've brought dishonor to your name, your prince, and your kingdom! Get ready to fight, traitor!"

Memory Divine Starfighter calls out, worriedly. "Kansu, please don't do this!"

Memory Eternal Leo tells Memory Divine Starfighter, in a serious tone, "It pains me to do this, Princess Uzi, but we have no choice but to fight or your people will be needlessly slain! When I first saw you, I fail in love with you and I was jealous of my prince as well as bitter that you were in love with him, but I shouldn't have done what I've done. I will set to things right!" Just then, Memory Eternal Starfire fires an eerie green energy blast on the ground, creating a smoke screen on the ground. Memory Eternal Starfire lunges at Memory Eternal Leo, but Memory Eternal Leo jumps up into the air to escape his prince's attack. Memory Eternal Starfire fires another energy blast at Memory Eternal Leo, but he disappears using his incredible speed. Soon after, the two Memory Eternal Warriors commenced their air battle with Memory Eternal Starfire kicking his general in the face, throwing him as he hits his back to a wall. Memory Eternal Starfire appears in front of his general and bashes Memory Eternal Leo, in the face, throwing him away as he hits the ground hard, with a loud 'thud'. On the meanwhile, Memory Divine Starfighter was watching this with great worry.

Back in the fight, Memory Eternal Leo lands on the ground and fires a blue energy blast at Memory Eternal Starfire, but he disappears from sight with his speed and goes to attack, but Memory Eternal Leo hits him hard in the face and continues to fight, then kicks his prince in the face, throwing him away. Memory Eternal Leo goes after him, but Memory Divine Starfire appears in front of him and bashes him away from her, making him hit the wall and he falls on his back.

Memory Eternal Starfire says, in a dark cold serious tone, "I'd thought that he'd be this strong!"

Memory Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Well, father did pick him to be the General of our Army before he went traitor! Let's finish him off together! Go!" Memory Divine Starfire and Memory Eternal Starfire disappear with their super-speed and charges after their fallen general who was slowly standing up.

Memory Divine Starfighter yells out, horrified, "Toga!" Memory Divine Starfire hits Memory Eternal Leo's legs causing him to trip and his stomach hitting Memory Eternal Starfire's right knee. Memory Eternal Starfire then bashes Memory Eternal Leo's face, throwing him up to his sister.

Memory Divine Starfighter yells out, lunging after them, "Stop!" But Memory Divine Starfire who was floating upside down fires a big green energy blast at Memory Divine Starfighter, pushing her back a bit. Memory Divine Starfighter quickly recovers and charges after Memory Divine Starfire, who was doing backflips and the two Memory Divine Warriors appear on top of a destroyed building.

Memory Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sneer, "You'll never beat me, loser! You never have!"

Memory Divine Starfighter says, in a serious tone, "I don't know what has gotten to you and your brother, but I will stop you!"

Memory Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "We'll see about that!" Memory Divine Starfighter charges at Memory Divine Starfire with a barrage of kicks and punches, which was all blocked and dodged. Memory Divine Starfighter blocks the two punches coming her away, but her face and chest wasn't so lucky when hit. Memory Divine Starfighter quickly recovers and continues to attack, but it wasn't even enough as Memory Divine Starfire bashes her in the face. However, Memory Divine Starfighter rams her right knee to Memory Divine Starfire's abdomen, knocking the wind out her. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough and Memory Divine Starfire bashes Memory Divine Starfighter's face hard, making her fall of the building as that punch threw her in a loop, but Divine Starfire grabs her by her collar and pulls her up.

Memory Divine Starfighter says, pleadingly, "Please stop!" To answer that question, Memory Divine Starfire holds up her free hand to power up another green energy blast, ready to end Memory Divine Starfighter's life. On the meanwhile, Memory Eternal Leo sees this and he yells out, horrified, "Oh no! Princess Uzi!" Memory Eternal Leo jumps up to Memory Divine Starfighter's aid, but Memory Eternal Starfire fires a green energy blast at Memory Divine Starfighter who was dropped when Memory Eternal Leo kicks Memory Divine Starfire's side. The blast that was fired by Memory Eternal Eternal Starfire, hits Memory Divine Starfighter's back, causing her to scream out in pain as it burns her, causing her to transform to Memory Princess Uzi.

Memory Divine Starfire yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Die!" Memory Divine Starfire fires her blast at the falling Memory Princess Uzi, who was caught in the arms of Memory Eternal Leo, who sees the blast coming to him. Knowing that he can't dodge it in time, he takes the blast himself which injuries him greatly as he was forced to land and dashes away from the incoming blasts from Memory Eternal Starfire and Memory Divine Starfire. While this going on, Ryoga was watching this in horror and disbelief.

Ryoga says, horrified, "Such unnecessary destruction!"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "This is how Dartz operates! He doesn't care who he hurts who gets killed as long as he get what he wants! Soon after, my prince and princess told the emperor about my treason and I was given the death sentence by the hands of my prince and princess. That is where I found out Dartz's true colors." Soon after, the scene is changed to the mountainous regions of Japan on a rainy night where multiple explosions occur and the badly battered and burnt body of Memory Eternal Leo was thrown on the ground with only his left arm missing, but barely alive.

Just then, Memory Eternal Starfire's voice calls out, in a dark cold mocking tone, "Toga, I thought that you were tougher than this!" From the smoke came Memory Eternal Starfire and Memory Divine Starfire, walking out and towards their general's fallen form. Memory Eternal Leo was too injured at the least and he knew that he was going to die.

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, "My! You two have done a number on him, have you?" Soon after, Dartz, in his original clothing, appears and Memory Eternal Starfire says, with a bow, "Master Dartz, I'm glad that you've came to see this traitor die like the lowly dog that he is!"

Memory Eternal Leo says, groaning, "It's you!"

Memory Dartz looks at Memory Eternal Leo and Memory Eternal Leo says, weakly, "You've come to save me."

Memory Dartz says, with a snort, "Save you? I don't even know you, fool!" Memory Eternal Leo was taken back at this and Memory Dartz says, in a serious tone, "You've committed a great crime that's unforgivable."

Memory Divine Starfire says, in a dark cold sneer, "The thought of Master Dartz associating with the likes of you is laughable! Get ready to die, worm!" Memory Eternal Starfire and Memory Divine Starfire jump in the air with evil smirks on their lips as they prepare their attacks.

"Orichalcos Starfire Star Shower!"

"Orichalcos Starfire Star Barrage!"

The two siblings fire their attacks at the fallen Memory Eternal Leo, hitting him hard causing him howl in extreme pain and agony as the attacks ripped through his body, killing him instantly. Soon after, we come back to Ryoga and General Toga and Ryoga says, horrified, "That happened to you!"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "In the end, I was betrayed by Dartz!"

Ryoga yells out, in a serious tone, "We have to take out Dartz before he hurts anymore innocent people!"

General Toga says, in a solemn and angered tone, "Damn it! If I had known Dartz's intentions, then I would have never done what I've done! I'd have my honor at least, but like a weak fool, I gave into my weakness!" General Toga looks at Ryoga and he says, with a smile, "However, you can help me get my revenge on that monster by saving my prince and princess! I can give you my power as Eternal Leo!"

Ryoga says, with an excited smile, "What are we waiting for?"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "However, once I give it to you and when my prince and princess are set free, you will never again attack Ranma Saotome or his sister ever again, no matter the circumstances!"

Ryoga yells out, annoyed, "You're crazy! I'm not going to agree to that!"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "Ryoga, it's the least you can do! After all, you did mooch off Ranma's honor when you were Akane's pet pig, 'P-chan', you attacked Ranma whenever he insults Akane, even when in deep in your heart you know very well that Akane actually deserves it. If you really love someone, you should be honest to them right from the get go, like Ranma is with Akane, even though, he has his own way of doing so. Do I have your word that you will never again attack Ranma Saotome, in any way as well as helping him with his 'fiancée problems' that he has?"

Ryoga asks, curiously, "Why are you even asking me this?"

General Toga says, in a serious tone, "You may not know this, but Ranma and Akane were soul mates since they're both were Prince Kansu and Princess Uzi, but a lot different saying from those from the Society of Light. Even though, they may get into arguments, Ranma and Akane really do love each other than they let on, but were afraid of letting each other know of it since they were forced into the arranged marriage by their fathers, not to mention, thanks to Genma Saotome, there could be other fiancées that he engaged Ranma to as well as the other fiancés for Hotaru. If you don't believe me, then maybe this will convince you." Soon after, the scene charges to a huge war in the desert where many soldiers from the Chinese and Japanese kingdom were fighting each other. This includes the multiple explosions by the Memory Eternal Libra and Memory Eternal Aries, who were also brainwashed by the Orichalcos and killing many of the Japanese soldiers and Memory Divine Starfighter fighting her brainwashed former lover and losing badly as she was blasted away to the ground with multiple burn marks on herself and bruises on her face.

Memory Eternal Starfire says, with an evil sly smile, "Well, whore, where's your precious Toga now! He's dead! My sister and I killed that traitorous man, correction, pig, and you'll soon join him in Hell!" Memory Eternal Starfire walks towards the fallen Memory Divine Starfighter, who was slowly sitting up, and looks at him with pleading eyes. Memory Divine Starfighter says, pleadingly, "Kansu…my love…please…! I didn't mean for this to happen! I'm so sorry! I really do love you!"

Memory Eternal Starfire says, in a dark cold angered tone, "Do not speak your lies to me, tomboy! Never again will I listen to your false words! I should have known that it would be too early for me to speak my feelings towards you without fear of cold rejections."

Just then, Dartz's voice calls out, "He is right though, Princess Uzi!" Soon after, Memory Dartz appears by Memory Eternal Starfire.

Memory Divine Starfighter says, in a curious tone, "Who are you?"

Memory Dartz says, with an evil sly smile, "I'm Dartz! I was the one, who picked Prince Kansu on his feet, after you rejected him!"

Memory Divine Starfighter yells out, in an angered tone like Akane's, "Bastard! Are you the one, who's responsible for this!"

Memory Dartz says, with an evil smile, "And if I am?"

Memory Divine Starfighter materializes a Chinese sword and she yells out, angrily, "Then, prepare to die!" Memory Divine Star charges after Memory Dartz with a huge killing intent, but as she got close to him, she feels something sharp, entering her chest and throughout her back. Memory Divine Starfighter looks down to see a Japanese katana, impaling her heart and sees the hands of her former beloved as she looks at the dark cold blue eyes of Memory Eternal Starfire as she feels her life slowly fading away.

Memory Divine Starfighter says, coughing out blood with her dying breath, "My…love…! I'm…so…sorry…! I didn't…meant…for…any of this to happen…" Memory Divine Starfighter while coughing out more blood slowly brings her hand to Memory Eternal Starfire's right cheek and she says, weakly with a warm loving smile, "But…if…I had…just…one wish…! I'd…wish…to…have just a second chance…to be with you…! If that ever happens…I promise to do…better…because…I…love…you…!" Soon enough, Memory Divine Starfighter slowly moves up to Memory Eternal Starfire, who was too stunned to move as Memory Divine Starfighter, brought her lips to his for one last final kiss, before she dies. Memory Divine Starfighter says, with a warm weak loving smile, "Un…until we met…again…my…love…!" Soon after, Memory Divine Starfighter drops her sword as it disappears and her body falls from her former beloved's sword and hits the ground as she turns back to Memory Princess Uzi when her life fades away with a smile that never left her face.

Just then, Memory Eternal Starfire drops his sword and he screams out wildly which gets Memory Dartz's attention and he calls out, "Your Highness! What is the matter!" Memory Eternal Starfire falls on the ground while clutching his head as if he is pain.

Ryoga yells out, seriously, "What's happening to him!"

General Toga tells Ryoga, in a serious tone, "After Princess Uzi gave her last kiss to Prince Kansu, my prince was desperately trying to break free from the powers of the Orichalcos, but in the end, my prince lost the battle. Dartz fed him more lies enough to gain control of him. Now, you understand, Ryoga…if the same thing happens before Ranma's brainwashing control without any sense of change, then we'll be even just as worse as Dartz and the Light of Destruction."

Ryoga says, with a solemn sigh, "I know now. Okay, I promise to never attack Ranma for any reason whatsoever, but if he happens to hurt Akane and if it's deliberate, then I will set out to straighten him up."

General Toga says, with a shrug, "It's worth a shot." General Toga then tells Ryoga, in a serious tone, "Now, all you need to do is call out 'Leo Eternal Engage' and you will be transformed. Good luck, Ryoga Hibiki."

Ryoga says, with a nod, "Thank you, General Toga." Soon after, the scene changes back to mountainous regions of Japan where Divine Starfighter was thrown to the ground, suffering with multiple bruises and scratches as well as burn marks from her fight with her former fiancé.

Eternal Starfire walks over to Divine Starfighter's fallen form and he says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Now, tomboy, what does it feel to be the one, slapped around, a lot? That's exactly how I felt!" Eternal Starfire grabs Divine Starfighter by the collar, pulls her up as her feet were daggling below.

"Leo Eternal Engage!"

Just then, a dark green light from the place Ryoga was lying at blazes away marking everyone covering their eyes.

Jordan yells out, stunned, "What's this!"

Holly yells out, in a dark cold serious tone, "I don't know, but it's from where Hibiki was lying almost dead!" Soon after, green light fades away as Ryoga's transformation ends and everyone sees a new Eternal Warrior in front of them.

This new Eternal Warrior had Ryoga's hairstyle, with Ryoga's trademark headband except that it had dark green astrological signs of Leo all around, and a uniform similar to Pikkon's from the Dragonball/Z/GT's Great Saiyaman Saga, except that the shirt was dark green, he has a beautiful golden armored belt across his waist with the Crest of Honor in gold on the belt buckle, the belt contains a dark green sheath for a sword similar to Excalibur, and combat boots with the green Leo sign on them.

Eternal Big Bang yells out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Who the hell are you!"

Just then, Prince Kansu tells Eternal Starfire, in a dark cold annoyed snort, "Hey man, that's still Hibiki in that Eternal Leo form! This means that Ryoga is the reincarnation of that disgraceful pig!"

Dartz says, with an evil sly smile, "Well, Mister Hibiki, I see that you're back on your feet. I should have known that you were the reincarnation of General Toga also known as Eternal Leo!"

Eternal Leo yells out, angrily, "Shut up, jerk! You live your life on inflicting pain and suffering to others just to gain your sick goals! You've manipulated me in the past when I was seethed with bitter anger and jealously when Prince Kansu and Princess Uzi were in each other's embrace! You've turned Prince Kansu against Princess Uzi as well as the destruction of the Japanese kingdom as well as getting Prince Kansu to kill Princess Uzi in cold blood! And there's one other thing I can never forgive you for, you set Ranma and Akane up against one another! I'm going to stop you even if it kills me! Dartz, prepare to die!" Eternal Leo jumps up in the air and prepares his attack.

"Leo Roaring Shin Shishi Hokodan!"

Just then, Eternal Leo fires a huge green version of his Shin Shishi Hokodan from his hands at Dartz, but he seemly disappears from the blast while others got out of the way as the blast hits the ground, causing a huge explosion similar to an explosion of an H-bomb. When the smoke fades away, Eternal Leo finds nothing there.

Eternal Leo lands on the ground and he says, in a serious tone, "Rest in pieces, Dartz!"

Just then, Divine Starfire's voice calls out, in a dark cold strong tone, "Don't fatter yourself, P-chan!" Eternal Leo gasps in shock as he sees Dartz with Divine Starfire with him.

Eternal Starfire throws Divine Starfighter away like a sack of garbage and he says, in a dark cold snarl, "Okay, now he's starting to get on my nerves!" Just then, the Saotome twins activate their Orichalcos Curse marks to stage one.

Eternal Leo gasps in fear as Divine Starfire was heading towards him and uses her new super-speed to get behind him. Before Eternal Leo could realize, Divine Starfire karate-chopped him at the back of his neck with one hard blow, Eternal Leo yelps in surprise, rolls his eyes, and collapses towards the ground. Before Eternal Leo's face hits the ground, Divine Starfire grabs him by the back of Eternal Leo's collar and says, in a dark cold sarcastic tone, "Oops, you almost fell down, P-chan!" Divine Starfire then bashes Eternal Leo's face, throwing him away from her. Eternal Starfire then uses his super speed to get behind Eternal Leo and kicks his back hard enough to throw him into the air. Eternal Starfire jumps up higher and gets higher than Eternal Leo as he kicks Eternal Leo back to the ground. Divine Starfire jumps up and slams her right knee to Eternal Leo's chest hard, making him scream out loud in pain as he was bounced off her knee and Eternal Starfire appears and bashes his face, throwing him away from him and Eternal Leo's body hits the ground as he was rendered consciousness. Soon after, the Saotome twins got back on the ground and Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "And that takes care of that!"

Divine Starfighter looks at this and she says, weakly, "Ra…Ranma…!"

Eternal Starfire looks at Divine Starfighter with dark cold contempt and he says, with a dark cold snort, "Let me guess you were about to say…!" Eternal Starfire says, using his ninja skills to imitate Akane's voice, "Ranma, stop pick on poor Ryoga!" Eternal Starfire says, firing a green blast at Divine Starfighter, "Get out of my sight, tomboy!" The blast hits Divine Starfighter hard, throwing her away and makes her skid across the ground hard, knocking her unconscious as she stops.

Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly grin, "That takes care of that." Soon enough, Eternal Starfire and Divine Starfire deactivate their Orichalcos Curse Marks.

Eternal Big Bang asks, curiously, "Now, what do we do to these dweebs!"

Eternal Starfire says, in a dark cold serious tone, "We gave them a simple on what we can do. Let's take them along with the soulless bodies and the old ghoul back to those dorks." Eternal Starfire looks at Cologne and he says, in a dark cold serious tone, "However, don't relax just yet, granny! We'll be coming after you real soon so you can join the freak!"

Cologne says, in a sly tone, "Don't be too sure, sonny boy! Soon you won't be so cocky as you are now!"

Melody says, with an evil sly smile, "Why would we be afraid of an old fossil like you?"

Naruto says, with an evil sly grin, "Yeah, you old ghoul! You're going to join your fucking great-granddaughter real soon."

(Back with our heroes and heroines; A good time afterwards)

Back at the Slifer Red Dorm, we find our heroes and heroines assembled together as they failed to find their captured sisters/friends/comrades.

Syrus asks them, "Any sign of them?"

Hassleberry replies, solemnly, "Negative!"

Soun falls on his knees and he says, solemnly, "My poor girls!"

Eri tells Soun, in a serious tone, "Don't worry, Mister Tendo! We'll find Akane and Nabiki and save them from those Orichalcos goons!"

Just then, a familiar male voice calls out, with a dark cold nasty tone, "Too late for that, dork!" Everyone looks towards the source only to see an unconscious and injured Ryoga and Akane with badly burnt and torn clothes flop down on the ground along with Cologne and the soulless forms of Nabiki Tendo, Happosai, Yuka 2, and Sayuri in front of them thrown by none other than Eternal Aquarius, Eternal Starfire, and Divine Starfire.

Kasumi and Soun yell out in unison, horrified, "Akane! Nabiki! Elder Cologne!"

Genma says, shocked, "Master!"

Eternal Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "You don't have to worry about your tomboy daughter, Mister Tendo, but your other daughter, I can't be so sure about."

Kasumi says, horrified, "Oh my! You didn't…!"

Divine Starfire says, with a dark cold sly smile, "That's right, Kasumi! Little Nabiki's soul along with the souls of Akane's dorky friends and the freak are with us. If you don't blame us, then see for yourselves!" Divine Starfire throws the Seal of Orichalcos cards that the horrified facial expressions of Nabiki, Happosai, Yuka 2, and Sayuri to the ground for our heroes and heroines to see.

Soun takes the soul that has his middle daughter's face and he says, griefstrucken, "Nabiki!"

Eternal Aquarius tells the Saotome twins, with a dark cold snort, "You two were right about this guy! He is a major crybaby."

Eternal Starfire says, with an evil sly smile, "Well, we told you and he's feeling this now, imagine how he'll feel when we say that sooner or later, when Akane is placed in an Orichalcos duel, he'll be watching as his fucking youngest daughter's soul is taken away! Until then!" Just then Eternal Aquarius slams some ninja smoke bombs and covering the three of them up in which when the smoke clears, the three of them have vanished.

TK says, with a plain tone, "They're gone, everyone. Needless, I'm not surprised by their exit."

Mimi asks, curiously, "So, what now?"

Matt says, with a plain tone, "We need to bring them inside, everyone."

Davis yells at Matt, annoyed, "No duh, genius! Let's bring them inside!" Matt winches at Davis' harsh comment as the others prepare to take Akane, Ryoga, Cologne, Nabiki, Happosai, Yuka 2, and Sayuri into the Slifer Red dorms and prepare to heal Ryoga, Akane, and Cologne as well as placed the soulless bodies of Nabiki, Happosai, Yuka 2, and Sayuri, fearing what would the future will uphold for them with the battle of the fate of the universe continues…
