Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-oh zexal

this fanfiction is based on a douiojin by jadenyugi9 and I decided to try to write it in text !


Barian world

Yuma is currently still with Astral in his Zexal form and is about to win the duel by making his last move and attacking Vector's monsters. "This is your end Vector! Hope victory destroy his Monster!" When yumas monster does this, the area shone full of light and thus vectors monster slowly released itself into the air. Vector didn't like that and went back a bit, but suddenly a mysterious person appeared next to him and said "this is bad" when vector reacted to it and the person was taken, he wondered who it was, the person gave in contrast to an answer just a smile back.

When Yuma won the victory, all of his friends were happy.

Yuma looked in the direction of the resulting cloud of smoke. When he suddenly saw someone approaching her in the middle of the cloud of smoke, Astral just said "Here he comes yuma". Yuma could only look at it with seriousness and anger because of the duel against Vector. They were sure that Vector would say something about himself with his manipulative, cruel and sadistic way, because they knew that he would not show any pity for anyone, neither for the other Barian. They were ready to face him again. Slowly the fog was also loosening and we saw him coming closer and closer. As they recognized the outline of the person more and more clearly, they were no longer so sure whether it was really Vector. Yuma for fort "no". On Yuma's face you could see that he was confused and no longer sure whether it was really Vector who was getting closer and closer. Now the fog was gone except for a few clouds of dust and could see the figure more closely. Now they recognized that it was no longer about Vector they were missing the words the only thing that had been said of him is "who is he". They were now facing each other at a distance and looking at each other. The mysterious person said "so now you are Yuma? ...".

After these words, Yuma's eyes widen and unconsciously move forward. His friends only shouted "Yuma" in shock when he was lying on the floor without touching them.

The mysterious person had dressed in such a way that he was now standing in front of Vector, with a big grin on his face and stretching his left arm out towards him. With the thought of Vector that this is yuma, Vector said with an angry voice "hehe now will you laugh at me. Eheh because!" The grin on his face subsided and said "I am really sorry ... Phecda."

Vector now knew of the statement that this is not Yuma and said back "you not are yuma! ... WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?" in a loud and furious voice.

Inside Zexal Yuma's mind, Yuma looked in front of him with empty soulless eyes, almost as if he were mentally distracted. But actually it was so that it looked to him as if he was seeing something figuratively what he did not know but then somehow seemed familiar to him he just missed the word for it. "Who? He thought when he briefly saw the more imaginary image. The only thing that came out of the other was an" A ... "the rest of the word fell silent for him. At the same time, Astral tried to stir the motionless Yuma by shaking and screaming; he just got no feedback. "Yuma! Wake up!"

Outside, Vector was still kneeling on the floor, only now he was slowly pushing himself up on one side with his legs. The dust of the soot cloud slowly evaporated around the field around them so that after several "tch ..." and "ssss ..." sounds the smoke around them evaporated.

The flood of dust, dirt, clouds and smok was finally gone so that the field was finally empty. The only people in the field were Vector and Zexal Yuma. Zexal Yuma opened his eyes and put himself in a half-sitting position, even though they still seemed a bit far away, so he was there anyway.

Now it was just the two, no one else. even the avoidable mirage is gone.

Vector got up to stand and started walking forward only to stop in front of Yuma, "Calm down Vector." he thought. But aloud he said "Heh, no matter ehat you do the stain in astral is still there. Heh ... not matter what you do to repair the bond ... it is destroyed now ..." He didn't get any further the impact caused a crack in the ground between him and Yuma.

Zexal Yuma took this and replied "I wanted to save you that time-´What? ´ thought Vector at this point." -But ... i failed you Phecda. "At this point his head went up and his Zexal yellow eyes looked into the Barianiches lilacs from Vector.

"VECTOR!" exclaimed Durbe and Misael at the same time. As well as Tori, shark and Kaito "Yuma!" called at the same time. Apparently they were worried about their group member, one group more about their friend and the other a little less about their ally, but the concern is there. Two of Yuma's three friends, who were also involved in a duel, stopped abruptly and hurried out of the fight to hurry to their friend. Their fight rivals didn't like it and really wanted to end this. They shouted "Stop Ryouga!" and the other "Our duel is not fone Kaito!"

Back to the little conversation between the two duelists, Zexal Yuma only spoke in riddles to other ears, he asked questions or said things to which no one knew the answer. As well as these on the Vector had none. "Do you really not remember me?" His face looked a bit ... teasing but also ... maybe playful ... Vector couldn't describe it exactly, that was new about him, Yuma. His face cramped up a bit you could already see the drops of sweat on his cheeks that probably came from the weird ilussions stuff, or whatever. "Again? ... Astral? No ... who are you?" It just knocked him out because he now knew the way Yuma acts, that it's not Yuma, that didn't fit. There must be something else in there.

The answer he was given shocked him. Unswar, he was so shocked that his eyes doubled, as if a brick was falling on his head and offering him a moment of revelation. "It's me your best friend -" That was strange for him, but when the name he pronounced came his head pounded. For a moment he could see the stranger again only that she and Zexal Yuma had merged into one person. The left half was Zexal and the right half was the stranger, although she is no longer a stranger to Vector, but rather the opposite seemed to be the case. "Arcus"

But this moment disappeared, fortunately for him, when Yuma's friends appeared from far away and on the other side of the Rises and joined him to help him. "Yuma are you ok?" asked Shark. Since he was clear in his head again, he took advantage of their inattentiveness to withdraw. When Shark expected an answer he could get a painful ´ughhh! ´ from Yuma as if his head hurt or some other limb. However, Zexal Yuma did not speak with Yuma's voice but that of Astral. "Vector! What did you did to Yuma!"

This made Kaito and Shark look up in surprise but took a few steps to the side than in front of them or, better said, their Zexal friend began to polymerize in the colors blue, red and yellow swirls. After the swirl of color came to stir, it turned into a white beam that rose up into the sky, but as soon as he let go, there was no longer one person sitting there but two lying there. To the lonely the white-blue alien Spirit Atral and on the other hand the human Yuma, morphed back into their respective bodies, minds and forms.

The first of the two who gave a reaction was the white-blue spirit that seemed a bit drained when trying to help yourself up. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Yuma still lying there motionless as before and did his best to pull himself over to his side. He worried about his partner, he might have been harsh to him in the past and seemed a bit too cold to accept his friendship, but now he needed him. After all, he, Astral, never managed to be where he is now without him. Without Yuma, he would still have no memories of himself, his life, or any memory fragments at all. Thanks to him they were able to bring back his memory fragments and develop a strong partnership, because if it weren't for Yuma it could be that he still hasn't been released from his prison.

When Astral had successfully pulled himself over to him, he knelt on his Spirit legs and took Yuma a little closer to him. "Yuma you'll be fine." You couldn't blame him for that, because it should actually have changed it ...

"Astral ... I ..."

"Quite ... please ..."

"You are free now"

"But you ... you will ..."

"It doesn't matter what happened to me"

"Why did you do this"

Further above the field of play, Vector had moved further and further away, he didn't like this kind of reunification, he hated it more. But something bothered him, he noticed that something was moving inside him, it was a strange thing for him, but if he had to describe it he would say that the feeling seemed familiar to him. "This feel ..." His hand had moved in the direction of his chest, just to be sure, at the point where your Barian crystal is, which mostly retains the color red, but with some Barians it can happen that the crystal has a different color. With one last breath he turned around to disappear, but not before Misael and Durbe lose a word about it, the similar communication appeared in suspension through a monitor, the same applies to Durbe. "Where do you´re go?" asked Misael. Durbe also spoke on the other monitor. "Mizael the plan failed we need to leave this place can't hold up anymore!" "But Durbe ..." With the last few words Mizael turned to his fight rival "Tch ... we will meet again Kaito!"

After Shark carried the unconscious Yuma back to their ship where he had gone back with Kaito as it would be far too dangerous to see the extent of the whole thing before they could do anything. "We are in the ship, how about Yuma?" "ORBITAL! Check on Yuma!" kaito ordered his robot animal. While the scan was being made, it was obvious that his friends were still worried about him and tried to feel bad so alos it would be their fault. But when the robot drove back to Kaito and delivered his report, the situation was as follows: "He is fine, he's just resting, maybe the pain from the duel was to much for him!"

They came home that evening, it was the safest thing for them the fight had taken its hurdle for everyone and the one who suffered the most was completely awakened towards the end of the flight, which is a good sign for everyone. But then ... Astral valued Yuma's sacrifice very much, but the feeling he got didn't let go of him, it was so strange to him. "Yuma ... I appreclate what you did before-"

Before when they were back at Yuma's house

"Are you sure? Did you not think that duel would go so far?"

"Yes i am fine Sharku i will be fine i just need to rest and i will be fine tomorrow and then i will be ready to fight with the barians!"

"What time are these to came Yuma!" This always meant trouble for him when his Nee-chan saw him breaking the rules. Just his luck that he is always the optimistic of everyone.

"- and the future fight will be a little harder and maybe worse than rhis duel. So please rest well, you deserve it!" This duel may have made their bond stronger, but Astral still had this strange feeling as if something was wrong.

On dream

He was standing in the middle of an environment that seems familiar to him, the colors colombed harmoniously and it makes it look beautiful and yet eerie. His dream environment almost looked like something he knew or at least had seen somewhere before. The bottom of the ground on which he was standing was sandy red that almost resembled dark orange. Around him there was actually nothing to see here and there again crystal-like stones and mountains, a raw material that seemed to be quite tough and valuable. Then there were orange clouds around in the sky instead of white ones and the sky itself was not blue but also more reddish. In front of him there was this strange hole that you could go into but it looked like something like an invisible wall shimmering slightly in orange that prevented that. The hole looked very interesting, it curled up in the asfald of the orange-colored clouds that merged into a hearty violet that again ran into lilla and then at the end of the hole the color ring dark lilac and then ended blue. And there Yuma stood exactly opposite the barrier and exactly opposite the entrance.

He looked around slightly just to wonder where he is. "This place ... where i am?" Because the way everything looked around him you could have thought that this was real and not a dream, but this was not the case.

"This place is not familiare to you?" Out of nowhere appeared a voice whose statement it sounds like an exclamation liss as a question whose position it actually refers to.

Yuma looked at herself vigorously only to see something weird on the floor. His shadow had changed, it was strange to describe but ... it was different. Should shadows have a mouth? And there in the middle of the shadow was something like an eye-like thing. ´what the...?`

It kept talking "Don´t you feel how the chaos resonates in you body?"

"Maybe but...who"

"Don´t worry this place is youre home"

There it was that weird fuzzy feeling of exhaustion, the feeling as if something was pulling you into the void. It requires all of his strength that he just has to resist and collapse. He's close to the ground at the moment, but that shouldn't happen. It was just ... weird. "My body ... feels heavy ..." he just thought, because he just couldn't muster the strength to say much. "I ... I ... I don´t ..." He looked up to see in front of him in his own mirror image that looked somehow different. ´Was this crystal already been there before, but if so, it had definitely not been floating, right? ´

"What exactly you are?" another question that sounded like a simple statement.

"I don´t konw"

"So why does this place affect you? Can you remember your name?"

His head began to throb the way it did with me ... worse! "I...mmmm...was Ar...no, who was i supposed to be?"

"Don´t worry" this time the voice was closer and clearer than before "We always change our name" There was the person whose hand was now resting on one of his shoulders. He was standing right next to him, it was ... so ...

"But you must remember your real name" They were really close now. The stranger but familiar-looking took his head with both hands and pulled it a little closer so that you are face to face. "Your real name was..."


Back in reality, he was still awake that evening but probably not there for long as soon as morning came and the sun was shooting strongly at him and was fast asleep again. Since Astral was not in the room but was back in the key, he hadn't noticed it, but when the morning came and he broke out of the key to see if everything was okay, he just couldn't sense an unsuitable feeling. However, he didn't think much when he saw his friend still sleeping in his hammock and wanted to wake him up. "Yuma! You better be awake! You're almost late for school!" he called a little vigorously, then when he got no reaction from his friend he put a hand on his shoulder to shake him awake which led to an answer just not as he thought, actually this was totally wrong.

When he touched it, it felt as if electricity was flowing through it and burning your skin or as if you were cutting yourself into a pile of glass splinters and exposing yourself to the poison and blood on you. It was a great shock for the astral being to feel this from his friend. "Yu ... Chaos! ..." His eyes shrank before the end, his skin burned in the red light and was somehow stunned. ´How does it get here, that is not possible ... something is wrong here´

Akari did the same when she went up to the dachbiden after Astral's end, in order to force her brother screaming into school. "I told you, you should not have gona out yesterday and came home late!" she shook him awake. "Come on yuma wake up ... wake up!" Still nothing no reaction from him. "... Yuma ..." Akari sounded kind of worried now.

at school

"So...Yuma isn´t well?..." asked Cathy to express if she got it right.

"Dont worry he is fine"

"Why did he not came to school?"

"Maybe he just didn´t wake up or something" tori tried to go inside with optimism.

"Maybe or maybe the duel from befor is still effecting him..."

"I don´t think, you know him that well. He is always fine after duels."

In front of the open classroom, Rio listened to the people who were standing there with her brother Ryouga, full of concern.

"Come on Ryouga i know you are worry for him... specially because that duel..."

"Rio be quite i just want it know if he did something stupid"

"Awwwww Ryouga just accept it, you are worry for him."

"Enough... I dont care if he dosent come to school just i wanted to know if he dicided to fight the Barians alone!"

"Heh... if you say so. Then i dont think it´ll bother you if i go with Kotori-Chan to his house right?"

"tch..."

"Rio-san" Tory ist mit dazu gekommen.

"Well sorry for this kotori-chan, i hope it´s okay to go with you to Yuma´s house. Ryou...I mean i´m a little worried and Ryouga going to follow us too since he is a nice brother and he isn´t going to leave two girls to be alone on the street- Right Ryouga?..."

Which is funny because it really came out that Tory and Rio went to Yuma with Shark in tow.

"So Yuma is sick?...that sounds a little weird to me... well he was fine yesterday, well after that duel..."

Thats true but...

Recap: 2 houers before

" can you give this homework and notes to Yuma...his sister called the school to say Yuma was sick and would not come today."

The call: Excuse me Ukiyo sensei but Yuma can not go to scchool, the doctor said he needs one day to rest but dont worry tomorrow he will be fine"

At Yuma's house the knock could already be heard that the three camarads Yumas were doing to show Akari that they were here. "Yes he is fine now... well can i talk you more late i need hang out"she put her cell phone down and opened the door. The three were already in a row and linked next to each other. "Hii Kotori-chan and i guess these People with you are Yuma´s friends too?"

"Yes they are Kamishiro Ryouga abd Kamishiro Rio."

"Nice to meet you" Spoken out both siblings at the same time.

They went in the direction of the living room. "Is good see Yuma have good friends. I guesss Ukiyo sensei gave you homework fpr Yuma, sorry for that!"

Tory didn't care about the apology, she just wanted to know how her boyfriend is doing. It was good that Akari at least said that he was awake, which makes her a little more relieved.

In Yuma's room

Yuma is lying in his bed and Astral hovers ghostly next to him but in his interest he pocked him slightly to ask how he is. "Astral i'm fine! Stop poking me ..." After the well-known short statement that he was fine and after a little break he was up again and knocked on his door. It was Rio and Ryouga who stood there who also re-edged Yuma but he never had it with Rio's name as he always called her: Sharku's sister. Then came the question how he was doing with the repeated answer that it was just nothing and that he was just tired. Shark, slightly hesitant, asks but with a strong voice "Are you sure it wasn't the duel?" Yuma always tries to deny this "What? No nono- I don´t think it´s that ... but talking about that ..." It happened abruptly when Yuma's eyes widened but the iris shrank ´uh? ´ It it happened just as quickly that his head was throbbing again and he took a touch of dizziness over him so that he moved forward a lot. "I think i saw ... something ,,,,," The picture that appeared briefly became blurry just like the outside world but he thought he would see himself but ... that was not possible.

"YUMA!" his two friends screamed for him when he fell over and caught Ryouga in lightning speed before his head hit the bed. They kept calling his name to ask if he was okay but he was gone again. "What happened to Yuma ... Astral?" Ryouga asked the ghost. He himself didn't know, but otherwise he could only make assumptions but his ´Maybe ... ´ was far fetched.

"Maybe? ... tch ..."

"I do not know"

"Rio we leave now!"

Rio, who always thinks a lot of her brother, said goodbye to Yuma by gently stroking his head but only from the slightest touch she got an unexpected presence through her system combined with a mixture of a version that confirmed the change to green through her eyes. When her eyes returned to normal, she found herself elsewhere. The colors around her played with the colors red, pink, orange and a soft pink, it felt familiar to her.
