"He took them all out…." Rin stuttered.
"Five by one duelist…." Ray added.
"It was expected." Yuzu said.
"I beat all five of them…. now I'll wipe all of you out!" Battle Beast yelled.
"Really? Our lifepoints have been weakened…. our cards used…. would you wiping us out when we're on our knees really be a victory?!"
"Fine! We reset the duel!"
Battle Beast took out his deck and reinserted it into his duel disk. The three girls did the same as their Monster's all faded.
"We shall each have 4000 lifepoints! However you fight without your Action Cards!" Battle Beast said.
"Fine but us." Yuzu said as all three girl's duel disks activated.

Gladiator Beast Equeste ATK: 1600 DEF: 1200 Wind/Winged Beast/LVL 4
"I equip Equeste with Gladiator Beast's Battle Archfiend Shield!" Equeste held up a black shield with a skull on the top. "I set one card and end my turn!"
"Yuzu, his deck focuses on Contact Fusion." Ray said to Yuzu who had not fought Battle Beast yet. "Also when his Monster's battle, they can be sent back to the deck to summon another."
Turn 2
Battle Beast LP: 4000 Hand: 1
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 4000 Hand: 5 5 5
"Understood! I draw! I set scale three Bachta the Melodious Maestra and scale eight Melodious Prima Symphony!" Bactha was a yellow haired Melodious monster in a black outfit with green boots while Prima wore a long sliver dress with a microphone in her hand.
Bachta 3 – 8 Prima
"I Pendulum Summon Carreno the Melodious Maestra and Queen Knight: The Valkyrie of the South!"

"When Carreno is Special Summoned I send a card in your hand to the graveyard!"
"It wasn't needed anyway…." Battle Beast said as he sent Gladiator Beast Murmillo.
I have no doubt your waiting to show what your Equip Card can do…. so I'll attack!" Yuzu yelled as she commanded Carreno to attack.
"I use my Equip Spell! If my Monster would be destroyed, this card is destroyed instead!"
"But you still take that damage!"
BB LP: 4000 – 3000
"Since it's the end of the Battle Phase and Equeste battled, it returns to my deck to summon another Gladiator Beast from my deck! I summon my second Murmillo!" A fish warrior now appeared in blue armour with jet cannons on its back.
Gladiator Beast Murmillo ATK: 800 DEF: 400 Water/Fish/LVL 3
"Now Rejection's effect! When I summon a Gladiator Beast from my deck I can summon another with a different type than the ones I control! I summon Darius!"
Gladiator Beast Darius ATK: 1700 DEF: 300 Earth/Beast-Warrior/LVL 4
"I use Murmillio's effect! When summoned via the effect of another Gladiator Beast I can destroy a Monster! I wipe out Carreno!" Murmillio fired a jet powered stream from his hands and wiped out Yuzu's Monster.
"When Carreno is destroyed, we each draw a card!" Yuzu and Battle Beast did just that. "I set two cards and end my turn!"
"Good, we got him down by a 1000." Ray stated.
"Yeah but he gets more chances to make a proper field… we're using three different decks from three different dimensions." Rin replied.
Turn 3
Battle Beast LP: 3000 Hand: 1
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 4000 Hand: 1 5 5
"I draw! I summon Gladiator Beast Secutor!" A green lizard in blue armour emerged.
Gladiator Beast Secutor ATK: 400 DEF: 300 Wind/Reptile/LVL 4
"I fuse Secutor, Darius and Murmillio by shuffling them back into my deck! I Fusion Summon! Appear the almighty Gladiator Beast Nerokius!" The large purple beast which towered above the duelists emerged.
Gladiator Beast Neorkius ATK: 2800 DEF: 1900 Dark/Winged Beast/Fusion/LVL 8
"He can't be destroyed in battle and if he attacks or is attacked, you can't use any effects until the end of the Damage Step! Neorkius, attack!"
Nerokius slammed his huge hand down onto Carreno as Yuzu was powerless to save her.
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 4000 – 3800
"Now it's the end of the Battle Phase, Nerokius is shuffled into my extra deck and I summon two Gladiator Beasts! Gladiator Beast Vespasius and Gladiator Beast Bestiari!"
Vespasius was a blue lizard with blue armour and Bestiari was green bird with long thing green wings inside a dark green armour appeared.
Gladiator Beast Vespasius ATK: 2300 DEF: 0 Water/Sea Serpent/LVL 7
Gladiator Beast Bestiari ATK: 1500 DEF: 800 Wind/Winged-Beast/LVL 4
"Rejection's effect! I summon Gladiator Beast Secutor!" A green lizard in blue armour emerged.
Gladiator Beast Secutor ATK: 400 DEF: 300 Wind/Reptile/LVL 4
"Bestiari's effect! When summoned via the effect of another Gladiator Beast, it can destroy a Spell or Trap on the field! I wipe out your scale eight Pendulum!"
"Anything else?" Yuzu said as she removed the Pendulum.
"I Fusion Summon once more! I require Vespasius and two more Gladiator Beasts! Gladiator Beast Domitianus!"
Emerging from the Fusion portal was a green lizard wearing green armour. It had purple legs while holding a spear.
Gladiator Beast Domitianus ATK: 3500 DEF: 1200 Dark/Sea Serpent/Fusion/LVL 10
"A level ten….. great…" Rin said.
"I end my turn there!"
Turn 4
Battle Beast LP: 3000 Hand: 1
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 3800 Hand: 1 5 5
"My turn!" Rin drew. "I set my own Pendulum Monster! I set Windwitch - The Pendulum Bell!" A witch who wore red ropes and a witches' red hat appeared while holding her brown broom.
Bachta 3 – 6 Bell
"You both had Pendulums?"
"We all do!" Rin hit back. "I Pendulum Summon Windwitch - Glass Bell and Freeze Bell!" Firing from the portal were two of Rin's witches, both on brooms.
Windwitch - Freeze Bell ATK: 1600 DEF: 800 Wind/Spellcaster/LVL 4
Windwitch - Glass Bell ATK: 1500 DEF: 1500 Wind/Spellcaster/Tuner/LVL 4
"Glass Bell's effect lets me add a Windwitch to my hand from my deck!"
"I won't let you! Domitianus' effect allows me to negate and destroy when your Monster uses an effect once per turn!" Battle Beast yelled as Glass Bell dissolved.
"Fine…. I summon Windwitch- Glacier Bell!" I summon Windwitch - Glacier Bell!" A pink haired female in white witch dress appeared. She was riding a dark blue broom.
Windwitch - Glacier Bell ATK: 500 DEF: 300 Wind/Spellcaster/Tuner/LVL 3
"You take 400 damage when she's Normal Summoned!"
Battle Beast LP: 3000 – 2600
"I tune Freeze Bell with Glacier!"
4+3=7
"I Synchro Summon Callistis the Synchro Brilliant Witch! A woman in crystal amour appeared. Her white hair was so long that it flowed right to her ankles. It looked like a robe. She also had two pointy wings why came from her hip. She held a yellow sword with red handles.
Callistis the Synchro Brilliant Witch ATK: 2500 DEF: 2000 Wind/Spellcaster/Synchro/LVL 7
"Great! You got Callistis out!" Ray cheered.
"Yeah but he still has that facedown…" Yuzu noted.
"We can't worry about that! I use Pendulum Bell's effect! I banish a Windwitch in my graveyard to inflict 200 damage x its level! I banish the level four Glass Bell!" A windy blast appeared and hit Battle Beast in the chest.
Battle Beast LP: 2600 – 1800
"You'll pay! I use the Continuous Trap Gladiator Naumachia! This forces you to attack with you're your Monsters!"
"What?!" Rin replied.
"Its other effect lets me shuffle a Gladiator Beast in my hand or graveyard to increase its attack equal to its defence this turn! I shuffle the Murmillo in my graveyard to power up my Gladiator Beast Domitianus!"
Domitianus ATK: 4700
"I use a Trap!" Yuzu interrupted. "Pendulum Defence prevents a Monster on our field from being destroyed this turn while we have two Pendulum Monsters in our scales!"
"Thanks, Yuzu…. Callistis has no other choice but to attack…"
"I'm sorry, Miss Rin." Callistis said as a purple energy surrounded her and forced her to strikethe beast. She yelled as she struck but remained on the field due to Yuzu's Trap.
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 3800 – 1600
"I have no intention of losing Domitianus so he remains!" Battle Beast smirked.
"Fine… I set one card and end my turn."
Domitianus ATK: 3500
Turn 5
Battle Beast LP: 1800 Hand: 1
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 1600 Hand: 1 1 5
"I still lead despite there being three of you! You will regret what you said about me being weak! I draw!"
"We can't afford to take more hits…. our decks all play differently while he gets more turns with the same deck." Ray noted.
"You were foolish to take me on! I shall not let anyone pass me!" Battle Beast roared.
"You just carded some of your fellow students…. why are you protecting Academia?"
"I fight only for my side…. this is my arena… and you're trespassing in it! I will no longer listen to anyone or anything!" Battle Beast replied.
"You forget me, BB."
Coming out onto the field was Sanders with a red and black duel disk. He held a whip is his other hand.
"Sanders! I don't listen to you anymore!"
"I helped make you. You have no choice!" Sanders smacked his whip on the ground and Battle Beast flinched.
"Who even is he?" Yuzu demanded to know.
"Battle Beast was a high-flying student here at Academia. He was one of the best however…. he wouldn't listen to any orders and he was clearly too strong-willed to have his mind controlled…. instead he was beating student after student…. carding them one by one…."
"Don't tell me…. you couldn't handle him and locked him in here?" Rin asked.
"Leo gave me the reasonability to do what I must with him. He's too much of an asset to just discard so I opted to do some work on him…. to make him even stronger!"
"You did what?!"
"Thanks to Cobra and the Doctor, they were able to increase the more primal side of his mind… we increase his urge to battle so it would be all he ever thinks about! Always alert! The perfect guard!"
"Just when I think Academia couldn't sink any lower…." Yuzu replied.
"Of course we had to include such forms of shock therapy… and other forms… since he became more primal, we were able to get him to fear us... but I guess it wasn't enough as he's rebelling…."
"I don't fear you or anyone else!"
"Really?" Sanders cracked his whip once more as Battle Beast looked in fear once more.
"Stop it!" Yuzu yelled.
"This is my arena, BB! You will do exactly as I say! Do you understand!"
"I….."
"Not so big and brave now are you! Now win this duel!"
"I…. I use the Spell Gladiator Comeback! Gladiator Comeback allows me to summon a Gladiator Beast from my hand or graveyard with a different type than the one I already control! I summon Gladiator Beast Augustus from my hand!"
A large purple bird with a yellow beak appeared. It wore armour which matched its skin colour.
Gladiator Beast Augustus ATK: 2600 DEF: 1000 Dark/Winged Beast/LVL 8
"Comeback also prevents it from being destroyed in battle…." Battle Beast stalled.
"Do it, BB!"
"Augustus attacks Callistis!" Augustus slashed his sword across Callistis chest as Rin heard her scream.
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 1600 – 1500
"I use my Trap!" Rin replied. "Broken Bell! When I take damage from your attack, I destroy that Monster and hit you with halve of its attack as damage!"
"What?!" Battle Beast yelled as the Trap fired a sound wave at his Augustus and wiped it out. The blast then sent him flying across the arena.
Battle Beast LP: 1800 – 500
"BB!" Sanders yelled.
"I…. couldn't stop it from… being destroyed…"
"You can still attack! Now get up!" Sanders yelled.
"He's ruthless with him…." Yuzu stuttered.
"Yeah… were we too hard on him?" Rin added.
"BB! I demand you to attack now! They are wide out!" Sanders whipped the whip on the ground again and Battle Beast sprung back up to action.
"I attack with Domitianus!"
"I use my Quick Play Spell, Back-up Melody!" Yuzu yelled. I Special Summon two Melodious Tokens to my field in defence mode!" Two small fairies appeared.
Melodious Token ATK: 0 DEF: 0 Light/Fairy/LVL 1/Token X 2
Domintianus slammed his sword down onto one of the Tokens.
"You stop me…. with fairies?!"
"You should've seen that move ahead, BB!" yelled Sanders.
"Hey! What could he have done?!" Yuzu hit back.
"There was plenty! It seems I must step in to end this…. clearly BB cannot handle such a situation!"
"I can!" Battle Beast yelled.
"Clearly you cannot!" Sanders slammed the whip down once more which made Battle Beast back off.
"Does he even have a name anymore?" Ray asked.
"No. He is just purely the Battle Beast! Fighting is all he is now!"
"Battle Beast…. do you remember your name?" Yuzu asked.
"I…. I can't….."
"You can't fear Sanders!" Battle Beast looked up as Yuzu stared at him. "He is just one man and you can't be scared… regardless of what he's done to you!"
"He…. I…."
"He is nothing more than my fighter…. but now I see he is just a crying wreck… clearly more work must be done….."
"This is bad…. I know he's Academia but… I think he's one of the misled ones." Yuzu said.
"Yeah… we taunted him…. but now we have to save him." Rin added
"It's my turn." Ray said as she stepped forward.
Turn 6
Battle Beast LP: 1800 Hand: 0
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 1600 Hand: 1 1 5
"I draw! I Pendulum Summon using the set scales!" Ray yelled as the portal fired around two Monsters. "I Pendulum Summon En Spirit – Tengu and En Spirit – Yamauba!"
Tengu was a black demon wearing a red jacket with a purple sash emerged. Yamauba was an aged lady with long grey hair and leafs who surrounded her body.
En Spirit - Tengu ATK: 1800 DEF: 800 Light/Warrior/Spirit/LVL 4 En Spirit – Yamauba ATK: 0 DEF: 800 Light/Zombie/Spirit/LVL 4/Pendulum/Scale 8
"I play the Continuous Spell Spirit Strike! Each time a Spirit Monster or a Monster with Spirit in its name returns my hand the opponent takes 400 damage! When Tengu is Special Summoned I can add a Ritual Spell and Monster to my hand! I add Spiritual Samurai and Spirit Release!"
"This is bad…." Sanders thought as Ray tributed her two Monsters.
"I Ritual Summon! Appear Spiritual Samurai!" A black samurai emerged with golden edges. It had two swords, one on its back and one stored by its side.
Spiritual Samurai ATK: 2500 DEF: 2200 Light/Warrior/Ritual/LVL 7
"Finally it's our turn, Ray." Samurai said.
"Yes and since Yamauba returns to my hand when used to Ritual Summon, Spirit Strike hits you with 400 damage!" Battle Beast was shocked by his duel disk but he continued to remain frozen.
Battle Beast LP: 1800 - 1400
"Samurai's effect returns all level four or higher Monsters except him to the hand. This effect is mandatory…."
"BB, respond!" Sanders yelled as Battle Beast but to no avail. "Fine! I shall take over his duel disk!" Sanders hit his duel disk and the control of BB's field switched to him.
"Great…." Yuzu muttered.
"Domitianus negates and destroys it!" Ray could only watch as Samurai was wiped out in front of her.
"I use the Quick Play Spell Ritual Redeem! When a Ritual Monster leaves the field I return it with its effects negated!"
Spiritual Samurai ATK: 2500 DEF: 2200 Light/Warrior/Ritual/LVL 7
"And then… it can be used as a full cost for a Ritual Summon!"
"Another Ritual Summon?!" Sanders hit back.
"That's how we work! I tribute Samurai!" Samurai vanished into the blue circle which surrounded Ray and flying up in a blue light a samurai who wore blue and black robes emerged with a blue mask. He had two swords stored on his back.
En Spirit - Kenshin ATK: 2800 DEF: 2500 Light/Warrior/Ritual/LVL 8/Pendulum/Scale 10
"So you summoned an upgrade? It hardly matters." Sanders replied.
"It does when it has this effect! I draw a card for each Ritual Material I used but I must send one card from my hand back to my deck. I send Yamauba. I use the Equip Spell En Spirit – Soul! I equip a Ritual Monster from my graveyard onto Kenshin and he gains halve of its attack!"
"Which means Ray equips Samurai!" Yuzu cheered.
Kenshin ATK: 4050
"Also when equipped… you can't activate any Spells or Traps while Kenshin attack! Kenshin, attack his Gladiator Beast Domitianus!"
Kenshin pulled out his swords which lit up thanks to Samurai's increased power. He slashed the beast in halve.
Battle Beast/Sanders LP: 1400 - 850
"What nonsense!" Sanders yelled. "BB! You built up a poor field!"
"Sounds like you just like someone else to blame!" Ray hit back.
"I built you to be an ultimate warrior, BB…. Leo entrusted me to build the ultimate defence and you just collapse on me!"
"I… please….."
"Battle Beast…. please…. you don't need to be like this. You can't be scared of Sanders; you're stronger than he is!" Yuzu yelled.
"Even if he listened…. the boy was untameable even before… I guess some people can't be saved." Sanders huffed.
"You're right… some people can't be saved." Yuzu replied. "I've seen some horrible things during this war…. and people like you… you're one of them! Was the Battle Beast ever given a chance?!"
"He had his chance to shine!"
"I'm not talking like that! When Ryo was finally able to see the light…. he changed his path… and many said he couldn't…. I believe you're like that Battle Beast! Please… tell us your name!"
"I…. can't remember….."
"Enough of this! Clearly I must step in!" Sanders yelled as he transmitted control of the duel disk back to Battle Beast.
"What are you doing?" Rin asked.
"I'm joining this duel myself!"
Sanders LP: 4000 – 2000
"Just what we didn't need…." Ray sighed.
Turn 7
Battle Beast LP: 1800 Hand: 0
Sanders LP: 2000 Hand: 5
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 1600 Hand: 1 1 0
"I draw! I use Test Fusion to fuse Test Ape and Test Tiger in my hand!"
"Test?" Yuzu repeated.
"Just like Battle Beast…. they are test subjects! I Fusion Summon while ignoring the Monster's summoning conditions! Appear the master of the arena, Gladiator Beast Tamer Editor!"
A mighty purple warrior emerged with flames firing out of his head. He had dark red armour across his chest with a red waist cape while holding a staff.
Gladiator Beast Tamer Editor ATK: 2400 DEF: 3000 Dark/Beast-Warrior/Fusion/LVL 8
"Thanks to his effect I can summon a Gladiator Beast from my extra deck while ignoring its summoning requirements! Appear Gladiator Beast Gyzarus!" A bulkier version of Bestiari appeared though this time with thicker blue armour. He had two white cannons on each arm.
Gladiator Beast Gyzarus ATK: 2400 DEF: 1500 Dark/Winged Beast/LVL 6
"When Special Summoned he can destroy two cards on the field! I wipe out your Samurai and face down card!" Sanders yelled as Gyzarus fired his two cannons and wiped out Ray's Ritual Monster along with her Trap, Ritual Defence.
"I'm sorry guys…." Ray said.
"It's not over yet." Yuzu affirmed.
"All you have left is a Token! Tamer, attack!"
Tamer spun his staff around and struck the group. The earth flew up and wiped out Yuzu's card.
"I have no doubt you have one final card up your sleeves… you're not acting nervous… unlike BB here!" Sanders pointed to BB who was still struggling.
"Wait…. you can't?!"
"I will! I shall take out my own creation!" Battle Beast looked up and stared with fear right into Sanders' eyes.
"No…. you… you can't?!"
"Oh now you show some emotion again! It's too late! You're a failed experiment!"
"Battle Beast! You're no experiment! You need to remember who you were before! You are not what he says!" Yuzu yelled.
"I can't remember!" Battle Beast screamed.
"It ends!" Sanders yelled as he commanded Gyzarus to wipe out Battle Beast. The bird fired streams from its jets and sent Battle Beast flying across the ground.
Battle Beast LP: 1800 – 0
"It's over!" Sanders hit his duel disk and Battle Beast was carded within the purple light.
"No!"
"We couldn't save him..." Rin clenched her fist.
"Why would you do that?!" Ray yelled.
"He was useless. Now back to the duel! Since Gyzarus battled, he is returned to my extra deck and I summon two Gladiator Beasts! Appear Gladiator Beast Vespasius and Gladiator Beast Bestiari!"
Gladiator Beast Vespasius ATK: 2300 DEF: 0 Water/Sea Serpent/LVL 7
Gladiator Beast Bestiari ATK: 1500 DEF: 800 Wind/Winged-Beast/LVL 4
"Bestiari's effect allows me to destroy a Spell or Trap! I wipe out your Windwitch Pendulum Scale!" Sanders yelled as Pendulum Bell was removed from its beacon. "Now I use Editor's effect! I return it to summon a Gladiator Beast. Appear Sector!"
Gladiator Beast Secutor ATK: 400 DEF: 300 Wind/Reptile/LVL 4
"It's going to appear again…." Ray mumbled.
"I Contact Fusion! Appear the great beast, Domitianus!" A second Domitianus appeared in front of Sanders.
Gladiator Beast Domitianus ATK: 3500 DEF: 1200 Dark/Sea Serpent/Fusion/LVL 10
"I end my turn!"
"We have to win this turn." Yuzu said as she looked at her hand.
"And we can."
"I was wondering when you were going to appear…." Yuzu thought back to Warrior.
"Well clearly you need me…"
"You love to brag…."
Turn 8
Sanders LP: 2000 Hand: 2
Yuzu/Rin/Ray LP: 1600 Hand: 1 1 0
"I draw!"
"Please tell me you got something….?" Rin asked.
"I did. I already had a backup in case Sanders attacked and I'll show her now! Appear Boulanger the Melodious Composer!" A blond shorthaired female in a lengthy blue dress appeared. She held a quill and some paper in both hands.
Boulanger the Melodious Composer ATK: 0 DEF: 0 Light/Fairy/LVL 1
"She can summoned when we're about to take damage and then we could've drawn a card…. but that doesn't need to happen! She has another effect. I tribute her and a Fairy Monster in my scales to draw once more!"
"I use Domitianus to negate and destroy it!" Boulanger was wiped away by Domitianus' loud roar.
"That's too bad…. I already had exactly what I needed! I play Synchro Ritual Harmony of Fairies!"
"You made me use up my negate effect?!"
"You drew that card? Amazing!" Rin said.
"That's the card you used against Serena back in the Synchro Dimension!" Ray added.
"As long as you have more Monsters from the extra deck on the field I can banish materials from my deck, graveyard and face up in my extra deck with 2500 or less attack to Ritual AND Synchro!"
"How could you have such a card?!" Sanders yelled.
"Ciel. Ciel is the answer! And I'm using all our power! I banish Glass Bell from our graveyard and Valkyrie from my extra deck!"
4+3=7
"I Synchro Summon! Queen Knight: Star Crimson!"The Monster was a female wearing a full body red cloak. She wore a black mask with a giant axe.
4+3=7
Queen Knight: Star Crimson ATK: 2500 DEF: 1800 Light/Warrior/Synchro/LVL 7
"I banish Samurai and Callistis to Ritual Summon!" Yuzu was surrounded by the blue circle as Samurai and Callistis flowed into it. Firing out in a light energy was a huge fairy which six white wings, three on each side and wore blue amour. She wore a helmet with long wings attached and held a spear.
Queen Knight: The Divine Valkyria ATK: 3600 DEF: 3000 Light/Warrior/Ritual/Pendulum/LVL 10/Scale 13
"That doesn't scare me!" Sanders yelled.
"Oh you're really scared. You fear Leo…. I wonder what he will say when he finds out that Battle Beast failed…. and you lost?!" Yuzu yelled. "Crimson attacks! During the Damage Phase she doubles her attack!"
Crimson charged forward as she slashed away at the Fusion Monster. Her axe increasing in size.
Crimson ATK: 5000
Domitianus unleashed a loud roar as he tumbled from the blow. Its heavy impact caused the Action Field to disappear.
Sanders LP: 2000 – 500
Crimson ATK: 2500
"No! My arena!"
"You have bigger things to worry about!" Rin said.
"Finish it!" Ray yelled.
"Valkyria! Direct attack!" Yuzu commanded as the Ritual Monster unleashed the spear and it slammed into Sander's duel disk causing it to fizz and spark.
Sanders LP: 500 – 0 Yuzu/Rin/Ray Win
Rin collapsed to her knees and Yuzu sighed as Ray went to pick up Battle Beast's card.
"We can free him…. we can free all the others. We're so close now." Ray said.
"You lot think…. you can just make it past me?!" Sanders tried to get up but fell because of the weakness in his legs due to the defeat.
"When this war is over, you'll face justice." Rin said.
"Yuzu…. Rin…. Ray"
Yuzu and the others looked up and knew the others had heard the same.
"That was Ciel." Warrior exclaimed.
"We… don't have much time…. the dragons…. are about to…. unite….."
"Ciel! Where are you?!"
"You…. don't have… much… time…." Ciels' voice faded away.
"I have a sense on her location." Warrior said.
"Let's go. Lead the way." Yuzu said as Warrior in spirit form flew up the stairs which connected to the main castle. Sanders was left defeated on the ground.
Mercy/Marina – Jail Cell
"Hold on, Ryo." Mercy held out her hands and using her physic powers was able to heal up Ryo's wounds. Slowly Ryo begun to wake up.
"What…. where….."
"Take it easy, Ryo." Marina helped up Ryo.
"You…. how….?"
"Physic… straight from the Synchro Dimension." Mercy smiled back.
"I was taken away from Mina…. I have no idea what happened…."
"It's okay; you'll be fully restored in a little while." Mercy replied. "I need to help these kids…" Around them in the jail cells were many students who were also in the same position.
"No food or water…. to think I fought for this ideal…." Marina added.
"We have an ideal. You just lost it."
Coming from the winding staircase was Cobra who had transported himself over.
"Of course it was never going to be easy…." Mercy sighed.
"I have an urge to rectify my mistakes…. you won't leave this cell alive!"
"I'll take you o-" Ryo tried to duel but fell to his knees as his wounds were still recovering.
"Marina, look after Ryo. I'll duel this guy…. then we'll free the rest!" Mercy yelled.
"Oh… you're not from Academia…"
"No. I'm from Arcadia, they had similar goals really…. but their corrupt regime fell…. same as you will!"
