He had the left the camp. He thought that the people at the Resistance was only hindering him. He had fought and defeated about 15 soldiers already. Kaito walked across the destroyed roads of Heartland, taking slow steps. Each step being timed like the tick of a clock.

Tick.

Tock.

Tick.

Tock.

He stopped, Kaito looked to his right to see a building in shambles. It was almost unrecognizable. Almost. But Kaito knew what it was. After all, for basically all of his life, he had lived in the building. It was Kaito's own house. He walked in through a large hole in the building. He looked around the room, scraps, books, and glass on the floor, each time Kaito took a step, he heard a crunching sound or breaking sound.

It's a miracle that this place is still standing… Kaito thought to himself as he went into the room that he at one time slept in. In his house, Kaito's room was on the bottom floor. He noticed something on the walls. He remembered, on the day of the attack, his friends told him that Haruto did something to the walls of his room, but the invasion occurred. He walked out of the room and he finally noticed something that he never noticed ever before. He saw a hole going underground where going to the second floor used to be. However, when the invasion, a little less than half of the stairs were destroyed.

He walked down the hole, where he found himself in a dark square room, with a chest in the very middle of it. Kaito walked over to the chest and opened it, in it, he found a small box, along with a letter. He took the letter and the box, he read the letter.

"This is father's handwriting." Kaito spoke to himself, recognizing the handwriting from the many times he has seen his father write down something. The letter read…

Dear Kaito, if you are reading this, then you have somehow managed to find this box under the house. I hid this box under here in order to give it you on your 18th birthday in two years. However, I have a bad feeling something bad is going to happen today...I don't know what. You see, I have been examining...I have a theory that there are more worlds than here. After realizing, I realized that another world could have the technology to travel between the worlds. Kaito, no matter what happens, I love you. From, your father.

Kaito crumpled the paper as he formed a fist with his hand. "Dad…" He flashed back to seeing his Dad getting turned into a Card. He opened the box, and he saw some Cards…

"This is…"


Meanwhile

Ryo had arrived back at the camp. He walked around to find Rin and the others. 3 figures caught his eye. It was Allen, Sayaka, and Rio, the first and third person of which was giving him a nasty glare. Ryo walked up to them.

"Where is Rin?" Ryo got straight to the point.

"You should know, shouldn't you?" Sayaka asked softly, but a hint of venom was evident in her voice.

"After all, you two are comrades!" Rio added to Sayaka's statement.

"Yes, we're comrades…" Ryo muttered as Allen spoke.

"Yeah, allies with Academia!"

"With Academia?! What are you saying? I told you people I defected from Academia, and Rin was captured." Ryo told the trio.

"Oh, you are a traitor to Academia huh? Then how come when Sayaka came across two soldiers, one of them was impersonating you?! He even called himself 'Kaiser!' You lied to us about defecting, why would someone from Academia impersonate you if you are a traitor, they would surely want to execute you!" Allen explained his reasoning for not trusting Ryo. "And that girl Rin was just another rat of Academia! We saw her, she Carded Kaito's family right in front of him!"

"What?!" Ryo bellowed in shock. Could it be that thing that possessed a Rin at Academia?

"Don't play dumb with us! We already knew that you planned the whole thing with Rin. Also, we've done the calculations, and half of the Spade Branch part of The a Resistance have been wiped out by two soldiers called the Tyler twins. I remember their faces!" Allen grit his teeth as he formed a fist with his hand. He glared at Ryo. "Get out! As of now we are enemies. You did help us out, so I guess I will give you some time to run away and hide."

"Hmph, and after all I did. I take it Kaito left." Ryo guessed as he turned his back to the group, starting to walk away. It was better to walk away than just get into another argument or struggle.

"Yeah, he did…" Sayaka ushered out softly.

"Whatever, I'm going out alone to hunt some more Academia soldiers, I won't be coming back, I'm just letting you know." With that, Ryo has left them, and now, they were in an even worse position then they already were in.

"We need to act quickly, who knows when Academia could attack again! And with less comrades, well, we won't hold out so well." Rio told Allen and Sayaka.

"There could be a place where we could go to. Up on the mountain." Allen revealed.

"That's a good idea." Sayaka commented. Why hadn't she thought of that before.

"Yeah, they won't know we are here, and they will have to search, the amount of soldiers will die down, and with Kaito out there, he's probably taking out groups of 3 soldiers left and right." Rio said. "Let's go, we need to group everyone in the camp and get out of here quickly to the mountain!"


In the Synchro Dimension

In the Commons area, a blue light shone through a street, when the light dissipated, Yuto, Sawatari, Serena, and Reira walked out into the street in broad daylight.

"Teleporting across dimensions sure ain't pleasant." Sawatari spoke the first words as he stretched his arms while cracking his knuckles.

"So this is the Synchro Dimension." Serena took a view of the place.

Yuya appeared next to Yuto, but only the latter could see him. "Yuzu is here somewhere." Yuto looked above to see more roads and buildings above them.

"There are more buildings above this area." Yuto informed the others. "Actually, where are Shun, Ryoga and the others?" The four heard a siren nearby, they looked in the direction of the sound to see a police car skid to a halt. A man opened the door and stepped out, along with another person.

"This is Security. You have been completely surrounded." A man said. At his statement, two more cars pulled up, the doors opened and one person stepped out of each car, the Lancers only had one way to run now.

"The heck are they saying?" Sawatari asked no one in particular.

"They've been found. Their outfits have changed, but their faces match the mug shots." Unknown to the Lancers, the person who said this was looking at a picture of both Yugo and Yuzu. "They have comrades with them."

"Secure them immediately." A voice spoke through his earpiece.

Reira took a step back out of fear and started to run away through the way that was open. Yuto, Serena, and Sawatari turned to the scared child.

"Wait, Reira!" Yuto called out to the girl. Yuto rna after Reira, who fell to the ground when he ran into a wall that appeared in front of him suddenly. "Are you okay?"

"Is this Real Solid Vision?" Yuya asked the question Yuto had on his mind.

"It's activated outdoors though." Yuto responded to Yuya's question.

"The lot of you have been wanted in the City since last night!" The first officer exclaimed with a serious tone evident in his voice. "Surrender quietly!" The two officers activated their Duel Disks.

"Are you serious? We just got here!" Yuto tried to reason with the officers, however…

"Enough talk! Surrender yourselves quietly!" The second man yelled at Yuto.

"Hey, you!" Sawatari snapped at the man who spoke. "I stated quiet just to listen to you loudmouth? Who do you think I am? I'm Sawatari Shingo!"

"Sawatari, they're not going to know who you are." Yuto told the Abyss Actor Duelist.

"You wanna Duel?! Bring it on!" Sawatari ignored Yuto and flailed around angrily. He pointed a finger at the duo. "I'll put you in your place." Serena glanced to the other closed area. Sawatari proceeded to activate his Duel Disk.

"That idiot!" Yuya exclaimed in frustration. "We need to make a good first impression! If we don't, this could greatly increase the difficulty of this mission!"

Serena took a step forward to the other two officers and activated her Duel Disk. Yuto turned to Serena.

"You too, Serena?"

Sawatari held up his hand. "Action Field, on!" Sawatari snapped his fingers. At this exclamation, the Duel Disk said 'Field Magic, Crossover.'

"DUEL!" Serena and Sawatari exclaimed with the other four, with three of each in their own separate Duels.


Meanwhile

An alarm went off in a Security building. A woman looked at what was going on, she a screen playing the word 'Error' multiple times.

"An abnormality has occurred in the Duel Control system." The woman said.

"Switch E to J via the alpha circuit." A man commanded through his earpiece.

"Switching E to J via the alpha circuit." Another man replied.

"The potential of a cyber attack is 31.29%. Specifics of the source?" The woman asked.

"The source is District D8." A voice answered the question.

"Switch to the alpha circuit is impossible. Trying the theta circuit." A man reported.

"What's the matter?" A calm male voice with blonde hair questioned, tapping his finger on his fingerboard repeatedly.

"We have reason to believe that the suspects Duel Disks have interfered with the system."

"Hm?" On the screen, a picture of a Magic Card appeared. The blonde haired male narrowed his eyes at the sight of the Card.


Back with Yuto and the others

"I'll take the first move!" Sawatari grinned as he held up two of his Cards. "I, using the Scale Abyss Actor-Devil Heel, and the Scale 8 Abyss Actor-Funky Comedian, set the Pendulum Scale!" Sawatari swiped the two Cards on both of the edges of his Duel Disk.

"Pendulum Scale?!" The first officer exclaimed in shock.

"With this I can Special Summon Monsters simultaneously from levels 2 to 7! Pendulum Summon! Appear, my Monsters! Abyss Actor-Sassy Rookie, and then Abyss Actor-Wild Hope!" Sawatari Pendulum Summoned his Monsters to the Field.

Sassy Rookie: Level 4, 1700 Atk, 1000 Def

Wild Hope: Level 4, 1600 Atk, 1200 Def

"I set a Card and end my turn." Sawatari concluded his turn with a set Card.

"My turn, draw! I Summon Vigilante Zeni!" Officer 1 placed his Card on his Duel Disk.

Zeni: Level 4, 1600 Atk, 1200 Def

"I use its effect, by making its Attack 0, I get to Special Summon a level 3 or lower Vigilante Monster from my Hand! Come to the Field, the Tuner Monster Vigilante Gata!"

Zeni: 1600-0 Atk

Gata: Level 3, 800 Atk, 800 Def

"Tuner Monster!" Yuto repeated as he watched Sawatari's Duel.

"So that means…" Sawatari trailed off as he watched what happened next.

"I tune the level 4 Vigilante Zeni with the level 3 Vigilante Gata! Synchro Summon! Appear, level 7, Sniping Heiji-Type 0!" Officer 1 Synchro Summoned his Monster.

Sniping Heiji: Level 7, 2400 Atk, 2000 Def

"I can send a Card from my Hand to the Grave in order to destroy a Monster you control, and if the Monster is destroyed, you are dealt 400 points of damage. I send a Card from my Hand to do just that!"

"Not so fast, Trap activate, Breakthrough Skill!" Sawatari countered as he revealed his set Card. "With this Card, I can target a face-up effect Monster on the Field and negate the effects of that Monster until the end of the turn. And because you used the effect, you still paid the cost!"

"Kgh…" Officer 1 grunted in annoyance as he sent a Card to his Grave, only to find that nothing happened with his Monster.

"Battle! Go, Sniping Heiji, attack Sassy Rookie!" Officer 1 declared. Sniping Heiji proceeded to charge towards Sawatari.

"I activate Sassy Rookie's effect, once during a turn if this Card would be destroyed, it is not destroyed!" Sawatari revealed his Monster's effect.

"But you will still take the damage!" Officer 1 reminded Sawatari, who flinched when the attack connected.

Sawatari: 4000-3300 LP

"I end my turn." Officer 1 concluded.

"My turn, draw!" Officer 1 drew his Card. He did the same moves as Officer 1, he Synchro Summoned Sniping Heiji, used the effect, however, Sawatari negated effect by banishing Breakthrough Skill from his Grave.

"Battle! Heiji, attack Wild Hope!" Officer 2 pointed at Sawatari's Monster, who was shot and destroyed instantly.

"WAAAAGH!" Sawatari cried out as he was blown back.

Sawatari: 3300-2500 LP

"Sawatari!" Yuto yelled in concern.

"When Wild Hope is destroyed, I can add an Abyss Actor Monster from my Deck to my Hand! I add Abyss Actor-Big Star!" Sawatari took an ejected from his Deck and added it to his Hand.

"I end my turn." Officer 2 concluded and smirked. "I have to admit, I was a little scared when you pulled that unexpected Summoning Method called Pendulum. But it looks like it was just something flashy!"

"Oi, oi! Don't get so cocky! After all, I'm still in the game!" Sawatari rose to his feet. "My turn, draw!" Sawatari glanced at his drawn Card and smirked. "With the already set Pendulum Scale, I Pendulum Summon! Revive from the Extra Deck, Abyss Actor Wild Hope, and finally from my Hand Abyss Actor-Big Star!"

Big Star: Level 7, 2500 Atk, 1800 Def

"I activate Big Star's effect! Once per turn, I can add an Abyss Script Magic Card from my Deck to my Hand, however, at the end of the turn, it is sent to the Graveyard at the end of the turn. However, you guys won't be in the Duel to see the end of the turn! I add Abyss Script-Rise of the Abyss King! Which I will now activate!" A book appeared right in front of Big Star as he opened it. "I can destroy face-up Cards on the Field up to the amount of Attack Position Abyss Actor Monsters I control. I destroy your two Monsters!" From the Card, two beams of purple light destroyed the two Sniping Heiji.

Officer 1 glanced to his right to see a Card laying on the ground. "What is this?"

"That's an Action Card. In an Action Duel, you can use them at any time, they count as Magic Cards, and you can choose to keep only one in your Hand." Sawatari answered like an idiot.

"YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE?!" Yuya shouted in annoyance.

"Interesting." Officer 1 said.

"I Summon Abyss Actor-Pretty Heroine!" Sawatari slammed his Card onto his Duel Disk. A girl wearing a purple hat was Summoned.

Pretty Heroine: Level 4, 1500 Atk, 1000 Def

"Battle! Go, Big Star, attack him directly!" Sawatari pointed at Officer 1. Big Star began to fly towards Officer 1.

"Action Magic, Evasion, I negate the attack!"

"Not so fast!" Sawatari dived for an Action Card and grabbed it. "Action Magic, No Action, I negate and destroy the activation of your Card!" Officer 1's Action Card was destroyed, and he was punched in the face by Big Star, causing him to fall to the ground. He groaned in pain as he held his face.

Officer 1: 4000-1500 LP

"Now, attack directly, Pretty Heroine!" Sawatari declared. Pretty Heroine jumped into the air and kicked Officer 1 in the stomach, knocking him unconscious.

Officer 1: 1500-0 LP

"Now for you." Sawatari turned to Officer 2. "Sassy Rookie, attack directly! Wild Hope, follow right after him!" Both Sassy Rookie and Wild Hope kicked Officer 2, causing him to drop to his knees, and eventually collapse.

Officer 2: 4000-700 LP

"Now, I activate the Action Magic Wonder Chance!" Sawatari grabbed and activated an Action Card near him. "I can target a Monster and allow it to attack twice this turn, I target Big Star. Big Star already attacked once, so he can only attack one more time, but that's more than enough to finish you off!" Big Star closed the book and threw it at Officer 2's head, there was a loud thump, and the officer was unconscious.

Officer 2: 700-0 LP

"All right!" Sawatari cheered.


While Sawatari was Dueling, with Serena

"I will take the first move in this Duel. From my Hand, I activate the Magic Card Fusion! I fuse Moonlight Blue Cat and Moonlight Purple Butterfly! Blue cat that prowls through the darkness! Butterfly with violet poison! Spiral into the moon's gravity and become a new power! Fusion Summon! Come to me! Beautiful beast that dances in the moonlight! Moonlight Cat Dancer!" Serena immediately Fusion Summoned her ace Monster, wasting no time.

Cat Dancer: Level 7, 2400 Atk, 2000 Def

"I set a Card and end my turn." Serena concluded as a set Card materialized in front of her. She looked up to see the shocked look on the officers' faces.

"What...is that Summoning Method?" Officer 1 questioned.

"I've never seen it before!" Officer 2 added to Officer 1's question.

"Hmph, if you two are scared over by this, then you are no match for me." Serena said to the two officers.

"What did you say? I'll show you!" Officer 1 bellowed, his fear of seeing an unknown Summoning Method vanishing instantly as he put a hand on the top of his Deck. "My turn, draw! I Summon Vigilante Zeni, and by making its Attack 0 I can Special Summon a level 3 or lower Monster from my Hand! Come to me, the Tuner Monster Vigilante Gata!" A robotic Monster with sirens on its head appeared.

"Tuner Monster, so a Synchro Summon." Serena deduced from the sight of the Tuner Monster.

"And now with this, I tune the level 4 Vigilante Zeni and the level 3 Vigilante Gata! Synchro Summon! Show yourself, Sniping Heiji-Type 0! I activate Sniping Heiji's effect, I send a Card to the Grave in order to destroy your Cat Dancer!" Officer 1 explained the effect to Serena as a bullet was shot towards her Cat Dancer.

"Continuous Trap, Moonlight's Protection! Once during either player's turn, if a Moonlight Monster I control were to be destroyed, I can banish the Monster until the end of the next turn. Also, for the rest of the turn, I halve the battle damage I would take!" Serena explained as her Monster disappeared from the Field. "I can only banish 1 Monster this way, so until Cat Dancer comes back, I cannot banish another Moonlight Monster via this Card's effect."

"Well now you are wide open! Sniping Heiji, attack her directly!" Sniping Heiji pointed its gun at Serena and proceeded to fire multiple bullets at the Fusion counterpart of Yuzu, who managed to dodge the bullets.

Serena: 4000-2800 LP

"I end my turn." Officer 1 ended his turn, he nodded to his teammate.

"My turn, draw!" Officer 2 drew his Card. He made the same moves as his partner, Summoning Vigilante Zeni, using its effects to Special Summon Vigilante Gata, and using those two Monsters to Synchro Summon Sniping Heiji. "You'll be taking the full damage of this attack now! Battle, go, Sniping Heiji, attack her directly!" Sniping Heiji threw a punch at Serena, who held up her hands as a means to defend herself. She was blown back when the attack connected and she almost fell to the ground.

Serena: 2800-400 LP

"I end my turn." Officer 2 concluded.

"Since it is the end of your turn, Moonlight Cat Dancer returns to my Field!" In front of her, Cat Dancer did a little dance was suddenly back on the Field. "I will end it this turn. My turn, draw! I activate the Magic Card Moonlight Perfume, with this Card, I get to revive a Moonlight Monster in my Grave! Return to the Field, Moonlight Blue Cat!" A cat with a blue tail appeared.

Blue Cat: Level 4, 1600 Atk, 1200 Def

"I activate Blue Cat's effect, when this Card is Special Summoned, I can double the Attack of a Moonlight Monster I control! I double the Attack of Cat Dancer!" Serena pointed to her ace Monster, who gained a pink aura.

Cat Dancer: 2400-4800 Atk

"4-4800 Atk?!" Officer 1 widened his eyes at the sight of the Monster.

"That's not the best part. I activate Cat Dancer's effect, I can release a Moonlight Monster, then, this Card can attack every Monster you control twice, also, the first time they are attacked, they aren't destroyed by that battle." Serena revealed to the two officers.

"Oh no…" Officer 2 muttered, already knowing it was over. His teammate put down his Duel Disk and let his arms hang, he had also accepted his defeat.

"Battle! Go, Moonlight Cat Dancer, attack his Sniping Heiji twice!" Serena held up two fingers as she put down one and pointed at Officer 1. Cat Dancer pounced on Sniping Heiji for her first attack, the Monster still stood, but he had lost a battle stance. Finally, Cat Dancer finished it off kicking the Monster, destroying it. Officer 1 yelled in pain as he was blown backwards to the ground face down.

Officer 1: 4000-0 LP

"Don't think I forgot about you." Serena spoke suddenly towards Officer 2. "Go! Cat Dancer, finish him!" Cat Dancer performed a double kick on the Monster, destroying it. Officer 2 was hit the ground with a loud 'thud.' He was unconscious.

Officer 2: 4000-0 LP

Sawatari had also finished his Duel around this time also.

"I-is it over?" Reira asked Yuto, fear clearly evident in her voice. She was just a kid, it was only natural that she was scared.

"Yeah, don't worry, Reira." Yuto pat the girl on the head as a means to comfort her, but it seemed like it didn't help much at all.

"Action Cards and Fusion...I don't know about Action Cards, but Fusion...the girl from last night never Dueled, so I don't know if she uses Fusion…" The blonde haired man who was watching from the building murmured.

"However, then there is Pendulum, something I have never seen before along with Action Cards. The boy with the black and purple hair, he didn't Duel, but his clothes...it was almost like he came out of a warzone…" A realization hit the man. "Perhaps...he came from the Xyz Dimension. So it seems that they aren't the suspects from last night."

"Alright, let's go now, before more-"

"Put your hands in the air! We have you surrounded!" A voice cut off Yuto. Yuto gasped as he and the others looked all around them to see that they were surrounded, there were officers on the roofs of building, and about 10 Duel Chasers who had their Duel Disks activated started to surround the group with no way to run.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Reira screamed out fear as she clinged to Yuto's arm for protection. "Wh-where is m-my brother?!"

A man on the roof laughed, however, he immediately stopped when he heard a sound in the distance. It sounded like the revving of an engine, it sounded like a bike. And that wasn't all…

It sounded like there was more than one.

Everyone even the Duel Chasers and officers paused to listen to the sound more, and they found out that the sound was getting closer and closer with each passing second! Suddenly, the sky turned dark as a gray cloud flew over, along with a bolt of lightning flashing across the sky. Then, a loud voice was heard echoing nearby, and it was...reciting a chant.

"Spread your jet-black wings, and stormforth in tandem with the roaring thunder! A slash of lightning! Synchro Summon! Cascade! Assault Black Feather - Raikiri the Sudden Shower!" Out of nowhere, a bird with black feathers flew to the Field, it soared upwards, causing great gusts of wind to whip at everyone's faces, causing them to look away. Then, the bikes were seen, there was five of them. Everyone looked at the bikes in shock. The person in the middle held out his hand and grabbed Yuto and took him with him, much to the surprise of the boy. Another person grabbed Serena by the hand, a third person grabbed Reira, and finally a fourth person grabbed Sawatari by the hand.

After seeing what just happened, Roget stood up from his chair and walked to a glass window, he merely looked out, wondering what was going to happen next.


Card Catalog

Moonlight's Protection, Continuous, Trap: Once during either player's turn, if a Moonlight Monster is going to be destroyed, you can banish the Monster until the end of the next turn. For the rest of the turn you use this effect you take half battle damage. At the end of the next turn, you can bring the banished Monster back to the Field. You can only banish 1 Monster this way at a time.


Finished!

Sorry about the Duels being really short guys, it was against fodder, but I still wanted to have Sawatari and Serena Duel. Oh and, hey, Sawatari's constant losing streak in Duels when he is alone is finally over! Heck, Sawatari was in a 1 vs 2 Duel...although it was against fodder. In the anime, I saw Sawatari got one turn killed, and I really didn't like that. If he continued to get treated like that, you could have at least let him get a win in this part of the anime.

Don't worry, Sawatari and Serena will definitely Duel again in this fanfic. I'm not going to give them the shaft like the anime did.

Here's the preview.

O'Brien, Shark, Dennis, and Gongenzaka find themselves separated from the others. So, Gongenzaka tries his best to ask people for help. While sitting around, Dennis gets an idea. Meanwhile, the man who saved Yuto and the other Lancers introduces himself…

That's all for now guys, hope you enjoyed the chapter.

Take care, goodbye!
