What up everyone, sorry for the wait. I've recently found out that made sentences that don't make sense so I've been trying to fix that. Now for some questions.
Odd Eyes Chaos: Not happening. I found out I need to be more creative, but Yuma isn't a Barian.
Examondragonknight: Yes you will, but Yuma is no Barian.
Utopy: Maybe, but I'm gonna be creative.
Guest: I could do that, but I think the Emperors live in different times.
Dragshiro45: I don't play or watch Cardfight Vanguard.
That's all the questions for now, but one thing. I've decided to rewrite my Arc v and Vrains White Dragon stories to make my White Dragons not to OP. For now enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 11: The power of Chaos and Synchros.
It was a sunny day for Heartland city and for everyone that lives there. At Heartland school, Yuma and Rio were walking together, having met up on the way and decided to walk to school together.
It's been 2 days since they've gotten together after Yuma's Duel with Kaze. Rio so far has been the bold one in their relationship, while Yuma had been the nervous one so far. They worked on creating their new decks together with Shark, changing things up and adding Synchro and Tuner monster to their decks.
"Alright, we're not late!'' Yuma called out in joy at seeing they've arrive on time, making Rio giggle at her boyfriend. "Last week was eventful, but it was totally worth it''. Rio commented with a smile as she and Yuma brought out their decks, looking at the top cards.
Yuma's top card was Stardust Dragon, while Rio's top card was Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier. They haven't had a chance to try out their new cards yet, but were excited to have their chance. "But I'm still surprised at the whole Duel Spirit thing". Yuma confessed to Rio, his mind still thinking about Roku's words about Duel Spirits.
"I know what you mean. To think that our cards actually had souls the whole time we've had them and we've just started hearing their voices. Speaking of which, have you heard any of your monsters' voices yet?'' Rio asked Yuma if he's heard of any of his monsters' voices.
"Not really. But I've been hearing someone giggling at times. It sounded like Gagaga Girl's voice, but she's never said anything. She just keeps giggling''. Yuma replied to Rio, telling her that all he's heard is Gagaga Girl's voice. Enna appears, carrying her and Astral's child. "Roku was telling no lie when he talked about Duel Spirits. Some Duel Spirits come to Astral World and live there with us''. Enna told Yuma and Rio, telling them that Duel Monsters live in Astral World.
Astral appeared from the Emperor's key with his arms crossed. "From the memories I received from Number 12: Crimson Shadow Armor Ninja, Enna's words are correct''. Astral said in agreement to what his wife said.
"Wow, now I wanna go to Astral World and see all those Duel Spirits''. Rio said with a smile, wanting to visit Astral World now. "Perhaps in time Rio, I promise''. Enna replied to her friend with a smile. "However, Kite is still on the loose, taking people's souls. Not to mention that other Number Hunter we haven't encountered yet''. Astral reminded everyone about Kite and the second Number Hunter.
"You're right, but we've got something he won't expect''. Yuma replied to Astral with a smile, looking down at Stardust Dragon's card. "We still have to be careful about Kite. He might still have some tricks that we didn't have the chance to see''. Rio told Yuma, thinking that Kite didn't show everything he had in their Duel.
"Yuma! Rio!'' Tori called out, getting Yuma and Rio's attention as they looked to see Tori, Bronk and Caswell walking up to them. "Oh, good morning!'' Yuma and Rio greeted with a smile. "Forget 'good morning'…Just come here for a second! You two are gonna explain yourselves today!'' Tori replied as she grabbed Yuma's left wrist, while Bronk grabbed Rio's right wrist, before they started dragging them to somewhere else in the school.
"Hold up? What are you talking about?" Yuma asked in confusion as Astral and Enna watched the humans. A few seconds later, Yuma and Rio gasped at what they were seeing on Caswell and Bronk's D-Pad. On the D-pad's screens showed people looking like they've aged, as if their souls were stolen.
"What the hell happened?!'' Yuma asked with wide eyes at what he was seeing. "We found this on the internet. There's been incidents where people first started disappearing before they're found, only looking like they've aged''. Caswell started to explain about the incidents going on.
"And before they started disappearing, every single one of them had a Number card''. Bronk continued off where Caswell started, making Yuma and Rio widen their eyes, along with caching Astral and Enna's attention. "Numbers!?'' Rio cried out in surprise at what she's heard.
"In the end, since you two have Number cards, you're likely to be targeted as well''. Caswell said to Yuma and Rio, getting them to look at her. "I'm sure it's just a coincidence that they had Numbers. Doesn't mean we'll be targeted''. Yuma replied to Caswell as he passed Caswell D-pad back to him, while Rio gave Bronk his D-Pad back.
"You two are hiding something! Start talking you two! Are Number cards dangerous?!'' Tori asked Yuma and Rio if Number won't average and if they were dangerous. "Listen, it's nothing really''. Yuma tried to talk Tori out of interrogate him and Rio. "Yuma!'' Tori snapped with narrowed eyes.
"We gotta go! There's something important we gotta do!'' Rio exclaimed as she grabbed Yuma's right hand before she ran off with her boyfriend. "Wait Rio!'' Bronk called out as he and Caswell ran after Rio and Yuma, while Astral and Enna floated after their partners. "What are they hiding?" Tori said in wonder, wondering what her friends are hiding from her.
Later on, Yuma and Rio were at the water tower at the school's roof with Yuma lying down, while Rio was sitting next to her boyfriend. "Yuma, why didn't you tell your friends about the numbers?'' Astral asked his partner on why he didn't tell his friends about the Number monsters.
"I don't know? I guess I just want them safe from Kite and anyone that has a Number card''. Yuma replied to his partner as he continued looking up at the blue sky as Rio looked at her boyfriend. "You might be right that they'll be safer if they don't know anything. But Tori and Bronk have already been controlled by a Number, so sooner or later they'll find the truth''. Rio said to her boyfriend, worried about her friends just as much as Yuma did.
"Rio has a point. Plus we still don't know who the person that gave Tori her second Number was''. Astral said to his partner, reminding him about the mystery of the second Number that Tori received from the mystery person.
"Remember, the second Number Hunter is still out there''. Enna reminded her friends about the second Number Hunter. "I know that, but I just want them to be safe''. Yuma said as he got up from his lying down position. "I get what you're saying Yuma, but…maybe we should have more confidence in them''. Rio said to her boyfriend, looking at him in concern.
"You may have a point Rio, but…I just don't want them to get hurt. Especially you''. Yuma said to his girlfriend, making her blush at his words. "That's sweet, Yuma''. Rio said to her boyfriend with a blush, looking down as she felt her heart beating faster. "That reminds me, why did you want our relationship to be a secret?'' Yuma asked Rio why she wanted their relationship to stay as a secret.
"Well…Reginald is always overprotective when boys try to get close and almost all the boys in school want to date me. So I thought it would be best to keep it a secret for a while''. Rio explained her reasons on why she wanted their secret to stay a secret for a while. "Alright, I got it''. Yuma said to his girlfriend, accepting her reasons.
Rio smiled at her boyfriend, before she took notice of grey hair. "Umm, Yuma''. Rio said to her boyfriend as she pointed at their audience, getting Yuma to turn to see that it was Cathy Katherine watching them from the leader. "Umm, hello Yuma''. Cathy greeted Yuma nervously as he widened his eyes in surprise. "Whoa you scared me! Don't do that, Cat!'' Yuma called out in surprise at Cathy's sudden entrance.
"You remembered by name''. Cathy said with a blush on her face. "Umm, who are you taking to and what relationship are you and the Ice Queen talking about?'' Cathy asked Yuma on what he was talking about with Rio. Panicking, Yuma leaped off the water tower and ran off. "We were…talking about my brother's relationship with a girl I know and you just interrupted it''. Rio made up an excuse as she jumped off the water tower and walked after her boyfriend with Astral and Enna floating after her.
(The next day)
The next day at Heartland city, Yuma and Rio walked out of class together, having finished school for the day. "Hang on, Yuma!'' Tori called out as she, Bronk and Caswell ran out of the classroom, still trying to get answers out of the unknown couple. "Sorry, but we've got plans for another Duel session!'' Yuma told his friends, turning to look over his left shoulder.
"The month is almost over and I'll be joining the upper grade soon. So I want as much time as I can get with Yuma''. Rio told her friends as she and Yuma walked out of their sight, making Tori sigh in defeat.
(Later that day with Shark)
Shark was walking around the same park that he had his first Duel against Yuma with his hands in his pockets, having nothing better to do at the moment. Rio called 10 minutes ago saying that she was gonna spend the day with Yuma since she'll be moved up to the upper grade when the month ended.
Shark wouldn't admit it, but he was jealous that Yuma got to spend time with Rio. He was still beyond relieved to have Rio back in his life after the accident that sent her to the hospital. But he still blamed himself that he let the pressure get to him in the nationals that coast him.
If he hadn't checked his opponent's deck, Rio would have recovered quicker and he never would have ended up as the jerk that he used to be. But because of his mistake, he met Yuma, who took care of his sister when he couldn't and gained friends that he could trust.
Rio told him everything that happened before he ran into Yuma, or more like almost ran over. From how she enrolled into Heartland Academy herself to meeting Enna. He did get angry at himself when Rio mentioned that she went to visit their parents' graves for their anniversary, making Shark curse himself for forgetting about something as important as that.
Either way, he was still grateful to Yuma for looking after Rio and wanted to repay him somehow. That didn't mean that he was willing to let Yuma date his sister or even let him touch Rio like a handshake or hug. But… he did allow Yuma and Rio to spend some time together.
Shark turned his head to look left and right, thinking about his first Duel against Yuma that took place here. 'That guy…I thought he was nothing, especially when Number 17 showed up out of nowhere in my deck. But… he proved me wrong and defeated me, fair and square. Next time I saw him, he changed dramatically thanks to hanging out with my sister'. Shark thought to himself, thinking about how he first met Yuma and how he is now his friend.
'Rio talked about how he taught her how to 'feel the flow' and how to Hi-five the sky, but in my personal opinion it was more like corrupting her'. Shark thought with narrowed eyes at how Yuma changed his sister. 'Still I'm grateful for what he has done for Rio. He's probably the only guy I let anywhere near my sister'. Shark thought to himself with a smile, grateful to Yuma.
"Um excuse me?" Shark heard Tori's voice, getting him to look over his left shoulder to see Tori in her school uniform, trying to ask passing by adults something. "What are you trying to find out?'' Shark asked Tori without turning to face her, getting Tori to notice Shark.
"Hey Shark…do you know about Numbers? You have Number cards yourself, right?'' Tori asked the older Kastle sibling about Number cards, getting him to raise an eyebrow. "So that's what you want to know. The only thing you need to know is that you're in over your head. Go home Tori and stop searching for clues about Numbers''. Shark told Tori as he began walking away.
"But Shark…'' Tori said as Shark continued walking away, ignoring Yuma's childhood friend. "Later and don't get in between my sister and rival''. Shark told Tori with his eyes closed, leaving Tori alone.
(Later on at sunset)
Later on that day at sunset, Yuma and Rio were lying down together on a grass near a lake, watching the sunset for the day with Rio lying her head down on Yuma's chest, making his checks blush red. "Rio…don't you think it's a little soon for us to be doing this?'' Yuma asked Rio with a nervously blush as his left hand was on Rio's waist, having been forced there by the Ice Queen.
Rio giggled at her boyfriend's response. "Normally I would take things slow, but for some reason I feel like we've been together for a very long time''. Rio replied to her boyfriend as she got up from lying down on Yuma's chest. "Well it has been a mouth since we've met. It hasn't been long, but considering everything we've been through-''. Yuma said as he held his chin with his right hand, before Rio interrupted him.
"That's not what I mean, Yuma. Ever since we met, for some reason it didn't feel like the first time we met''. Rio explained what she meant to her boyfriend more clearly, getting him to look at her in confusion. "For some reason it felt the same for me''. Yuma said to his girlfriend, having felt like it wasn't the first time he met Rio.
Astral and Enna were with Yuma and Rio, watching the sun reflect on the water. "Enna, when did we met?'' Astral asked his wife on when they met. "A long time ago when we were very young, before you meet Alcor''. Enna answered her husband, rocking their child to sleep in her arms.
"Alcor?'' Astral asked in confusion, having no memories of anyone named 'Alcor' from the memories he received so far. "Alcor was the first human you ever met. You two were best friends and unlocked a legendary power together. Alcor helped you confess your feelings for me''. Enna explained to her husband on who Alcor is and their connection.
"What happened to him?'' Astral asked his wife, wanting to hear about Alcor's fate. "Like you, he got married to a girl he loved called Marin. Like you two, she and I were best friends. However, they lost their lives to protect our world from the Barian World's god, Don Thousand''. Enna continued to explain the fate about Aclor, about how he was married and how he died.
"Don…Thousand?'' Astral repeated in confusion as he lowered his head, the name sounding familiar to him. "You once battled him a thousand years ago to keep him from claiming the Numeron Code''. Enna told her husband about Don Thousand.
"I see. I do not know what this 'Numeron Code' is, but it must be something incredible if he risked battling me for it". Astral stated as he crossed his arms, having no idea what the Numeron Code is. "Indeed. Somehow, he survived that battle. Alcor, Marin, you and I came across him long ago and managed to force him to retreat to his home, Barian World. However, the battle took Alcor and Marin's lives. We mourned for years for the lost of our friends". The female Astral World being told her husband, looking down in sadness upon remembering her friend's fate. Astral looked down in sadness to hear that his first human friend died long ago. So, he decided to change the subject to get their minds off the previous subject.
"Enna, you mistook Rio for Marin when you first arrived, correct?'' Astral asked his wife in a slightly worried tone, remembering that she mistook Rio for someone else. Enna raised her head and nodded to her husband. "Yes, I did. You see, Rio looks identical to Marin in almost everything. The only difference is their age with Marin being 20-years-old, while Rio is 14-years-old. Now that I think about it, Yuma resembles Alcor as well". Enna told her husband as she turned to look at Yuma, finally noticing that the young male looked identical to her husband's old friend. The husband and wife's conversation had caught Yuma and Rio's attention as they looked up at their partners.
"What do you mean we resemble people?" Rio asked Enna in confusion at her words. However, before Enna could explain, a familiar voice was heard. "Yuma! Rio!'' Cathy's voice called out, getting everyone's attention as they all looked to see Cathy running up to them, still wearing her school outfit. "Cat!'' Yuma called out in surprise as he got back up on his feet.
"You have to do something!'' Cathy cried out as she stopped in front of Yuma and Rio. "What are you talking about, what happened!?'' Yuma asked Cathy on what happened that has got her all worked up.
"It's Tori and the others, they…!'' Cathy tried to explain, before she gasped. "They what? Cathy, what happened to everyone?'' Rio asked Cathy on what happened to their friends. "Cat cannot hear you right now''. Cathy said, but had an echo and sounded like someone was talking through her.
"What the- Who are you!?'' Yuma called out in surprise as he and Rio leaped a little bit away from Cathy. "My name is Fortuno. I am a seer of all things and I bring to you a message on behalf of my master Kite''. Cathy or the one called Fortuno controlling her said to Yuma and Rio, making them widen their eyes at hearing Kite's name.
"Kite!?" Yuma cried out in surprise to hear Kite's name as Astral narrowed his eyes. "We have your friends, Yuma. If you want to see them again, you must come to my mansion and duel me. If you refuse my request then your friends will be…'' Fortuno explained to Yuma, before he let go of Cathy, causing her to gasp as she started to collapse.
"Cat!'' Yuma called out in concern as he went and caught Cathy, wrapping his arms around her waist. "They'll be…'' Cathy groaned out, before she blushed bright red at seeing Yuma so close to her before she pushed him away a little.
"What happened? I must have blacked out or something!" Cathy exclaimed with a blush on her cheeks. Yuma turned to look at Rio. "I'll handle this, go tell Shark about this Fortuno. I'll message you to tell you if I managed to handle the situation on my own. If I don't message you, be careful". Yuma told his girlfriend, getting her to look at her boyfriend in concern. The two spent a moment looking into each other's eyes, before Rio nodded to her boyfriend. She took off running in the other direction to find her brother. "I'll come with you". Enna said as she floated after Rio, keeping hers and Astral's son safe in her hands.
"Time to go save the day again. Lead me to where this mansion is". Yuma told Cathy with a serious tone, getting her to nod to him, before she ran off. Yuma chased after Cat as she began leading him to the mansion. "Careful Yuma! If this 'Fortuno' serves Kite, we might run into him soon". Astral told his partner as he floated after Yuma, who nodded to his partner.
(A few minutes later)
Cathy led Yuma to Fortuno's mansion and down to the underground arena, where Yuma personally kicked down the door. "Knock knock!'' Yuma called out with a smirk on his face as he walked into the arena with Cathy nervously walking behind them.
Yuma saw some kind of giant crystal ball that was showing an image of Tori, Bronk, Caswell, Flip and Taiki in a lava bit, standing on a narrow platform. "How did they get there?'' Yuma asked in confusion at seeing his friends trapped at a Lava pit. Just then, a black cloaked man with orange hair, yellow eyes and blue markings on his face stepped forward out of nowhere. Yuma had no doubt that this man was Fortuno.
"Welcome Yuma, to the last duel that you'll ever play''. Fortuno said to Yuma with a smirk on his face as he stepped in front of Yuma's path. "Yes, but only because I'm gonna beat your bitchass so hard that every other bitchass duelist will retire in bitchass shame. It'll be known as the bitchass retirement plan, named after you, ya bitchass''. Yuma taunted with a smirk on his face as his Duel eye tattoo appeared, putting on his Duel Disk and placing the headset over his left eye.
"Talk all you want, but soon your soul will belong to my master Kite!'' Fortuno called out with a smirk, as he held up his right hand at the staircase that a shadow covered throne where Kite was, sitting down on the throne.
"We'll see about that and after I'm done with you, Kite's next!'' Yuma called out with narrowed eyes as he held up his left hand as virtual cards appeared around the arena, before transferring into Yuma's Duel Disk. Fortuno activated his Duel Disk and placing his Duel Gazer on as well.
"AR-Vision Link established!'' The computer voice called out as the AR-Vision activated around Yuma and Fortuno. "Let's duel!'' Yuma and Fortuno called out as they drew their starting hand.
Yuma Life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
Fortuno life points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"I'll take the first move! Prepare yourself, I draw!'' Fortuno called out as he drew his card from his deck in a dramatic fashion. "I summon Orange Shaman in ATK mode!'' Fortuno called out as an orange Shaman monster appeared on his field.
Orange Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 4.
"Now I'll end my turn with a face down card!'' Fortuno called out as a face down card appeared on his field.
Yuma Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 5.
"Time to feel the flow!" Yuma called out as he drew his virtual card in a dramatic fashion, before a screen appeared in front of Yuma and showed his six cards. "If you control monsters and I don't, Level Warrior can come out and join the party as a Level 4 monster!'' Yuma explained his monster's effect as a portal appeared in front of him before Level Warrior appeared in a dramatic fashion.
Level Warrior ATK Points: 300/ Level: 3 + 1 = 4.
"I activate Orange Shaman's special ability! When you summon an Effect Monster, I can Summon another Shaman monster from my hand! So arise Red Shaman!'' Fortuno explained his monster's special ability as a red Shaman monster appeared on the field.
Red Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 4.
"Next up I summon a new monster, called Gagaga Gunwoman!'' Yuma called out as a card appeared on the field, before a new monster appeared from the card.
It was a female monster wearing a black gagaga hat; light skin and long untamed black hair and violet eyes. She wore a tight black leather corset and a black skirt with maroon frills over black leather pants and on the corset was the Gagaga Symbol. She had a violet cape with marron lining hung from her shoulders, and two flintlock pistols were holstered in two dark purple leather holsters on her hips.
(Gagaga Gunwoman/ Level: 3/ Attribute: Dark/ Type: Spellcaster/ Tuner/ Effect/ ATK Points: 1400/ DEF Points: 700/ Effect: If you control a Gagaga monster, you can special summon this card from your hand. Once per turn, in exchange of lowering this card's ATK Points by half, your opponent takes 700 points of damage)
"Now I activate her special ability! By lowering her ATK Points by half, you take 700 Points of damage!" Yuma explained his monster's effect as Gunwoman took out her pistols, before she unleashed a barrage of bullets at Fortuno, creating a small explosion. The explosion soon cleared to reveal Fortuno unharmed.
Fortuno Life Points: 4000 – 700 = 3300.
Gagaga Gunwoman ATK Points: 1400 – 700 = 700.
"Here goes, level 3 Gagaga Gunwoman tunes with level 4 Level Warrior!'' Yuma called out as Level Warrior leaped into the air, while Gagaga Gunwoman turned into three green rings. The green rings went around Level Warrior, scanning him, as he turned orange before changing into four lights. A beam appeared that consumed the Lights and Rings.
"Present yourself Lightning Warrior!'' Yuma called out as a white armoured warrior with yellow hair appeared, letting out a battle cry.
Lightning Warrior ATK Points: 2400/ Level: 7.
"Interesting, you use Synchro Monsters''. Fotuno commented with a smirk on his face, not bothered by Yuma's Synchro monster. "If it's so interesting, why don't you get a closer look? Lightning Warrior, attack Red Shaman!'' Yuma cried out as lighting covered Lighting Warrior's right fist before he charged at Red Shaman.
"I reveal my trap, Dance of the Guardian!'' Fortuno called out as his face down card revealed itself. "This allows me to choose one card in your hand and if it happens to be a monster card, your attack is negated!'' Fortuno explained his trap's effect as Yuma's four cards appeared in front of him.
"I choose, the far right card!'' Fortuno made his choice as the far right card of Yuma's four cards revealed itself to be Gagaga Magician. "Now your attack is negated, I draw a card and the card I selected is destroyed!'' Fortuno explained his trap's effect as he drew a card, while the lightning surrounding Lightning Warrior's fist disappeared with Gagaga Magican's card shattering.
"Not bad, guess I'll just set a face down card''. Yuma said with narrowed eyes as one face down card appeared on his field.
Fortuno life points: 3300/ Number of cards in hand: 4.
"My turn now, I draw!'' Fortuno called out as he drew his card from his hand. "Hold it, reveal trap Thunder of Ruler!'' Yuma called out as his face down card revealed itself. "Thanks to this Trap Card, you can't attack this turn!'' Yuma explained his trap's effect as Fortuno narrowed his eyes.
"Very well, I'll play Shaman Call!'' Fortuno called out as a spell card appeared on his field. "This card if I have 2 Spellcasters with 0000 ATK Points on my field, I can special summon one Level 4 or lower Shaman from my deck! I summon Green Shaman!'' Fortuno explained his spell's effect as a Green Shaman monster appeared on the field.
Green Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 4.
"Three Level 4 monsters''. Yuma said with narrowed eyes as he crossed his arms, figuring out Fortuno's strategy. "I Overlay level 4 Red Shaman, Green Shaman and Orange Shaman!'' Fortuno called out as his three monsters turned into three dark lights that descended into the sky as a galaxy portal appeared on the ground.
"With these three monsters, I build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon Number 16: Shock Master!'' Fortuno cried out as a sealed form of a Number monster appeared, looking like a square. The square transformed into a purple monster that had the number '16' on it with three yellow Overlay Units circling around it.
Number 16: Shock Master DEF Points: 1600/ Rank: 4/ Overlay units: 3.
"That thing is creepy, but at least it's in DEF Mode''. Yuma stated at seeing Shock Master. "Since it didn't have enough ATK Points, he must have placed it in DEF Mode to defend himself since only a Number can destroy a Number''. Astral told his partner with his arms crossed, reminding him about Number monsters' special power.
"Oh Shock Master has more purpose than just for defense! I activate Shock Master's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, I can declare one card type and it cannot be activated for 2 turns!" Fortuno explained his monster's special ability as Shock Master absorbed an Overlay Unit into its horn.
Number 16: Shock Master Overlay units: 3 - 1 = 2.
"Jokes on you, I don't even have any face down cards!'' Yuma told Fortuno with a smirk, having no face down cards right now. Fortuno chuckled at Yuma's words, keeping his sinister smile. "That may be true, but now you can't play Traps for two turns". Fortuno replied, declaring his choice on what card type that Yuma cannot use for 2 turns. "I'll end my turn here, boy!" Fortuno declared his turn over as he began laughing.
Yuma Life Points: 4000/ Number of cards in hand: 2.
"If you think you can defend yourself with a Number in DEF mode, think again!" Yuma called out as he drew his virtual card from his Duel Disk. "I summon Zubaba Knight!" Yuma called out as Zubaba Knight's card appeared on the field, before the golden knight appeared in a dramatic fashion.
Zubaba Knight ATK Points: 1600/ Level: 3.
"Now Zubaba Knight, attack Shock Master!" Yuma commanded his monster as Zubaba Knight charged at Shock Master. "Are you a fool? My monster has the same DEF Points as your Zubaba Knight?" Fortuno questioned Yuma with a smirk on his face, one that the Syllables Duelist returned. "The only fool here is you because when Zubaba Knight attacks a face up DEF Position monster, that monster is destroyed!" Yuma explained his monster's special ability as Zubaba Knight slashed Shock Master's face with its swords, causing the Xyz Monster to explode, while the Warrior-Type monster returned to his Duelist's side.
"Why you!" Fortuno called out in rage at seeing Yuma make a fool out of him. "I'm not even done yet! Now Lightning Warrior, attack Fortuno directly!" Yuma cried out, swiping his right hand out as Lightning Warrior unleashed lightning streams from his hand at Fortuno, striking him, but doing no harm.
Fortuno Life Points: 3300 – 2400 = 900.
"Now, I'll set one face down card and end my turn!" Yuma declared his turn over as a face down card appeared on his field, before electricity surrounded the card.
Fortuno Life Points: 900/ Number of cards in hand: 4.
Lightning Warrior's attack had forced Fortuno's hood to fall off, revealing his face fully. Fortuno was silent; before he started, laughing, making Yuma and Astral narrow their eyes. "I missed the joke?" Yuma stated with narrowed eyes. "You'll see soon, my boy! My turn!" Fortuno called out as he drew his card from his deck. "I summon another Green Shaman!" Fortuno called out as another Green Shaman appeared on the field.
Green Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 4.
"Now I activate the Spell Card, Tribute Doll!" Fortuno called out, holding the Spell card out with his right hand as another copy of it appeared on the field. "This Spell allows me to tribute my Green Shaman to Summon a Level 7 monster! Arise, Rainbow Shaman!" Fortuno explained his Spell's effect as Green Shaman glowed for a moment, before it changed into a Rainbow Shaman.
Rainbow Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 7.
"Now I activate the Xyz Plant Spell Card!" Fortuno called out as he picked another card from his hand and held it up. A copy of Xyz Plant's card materialized on the field, before it began gleaming. "This card Summons itself as a monster with the same Level as another monster on my field! And since I only have one monster, it's obvious what its Level is gonna be!" Fortuno explained his Spell's effect as another Rainbow Shaman rose up forth from the Spell Card.
Xyz Plant ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 7.
"Two level 7 monsters, that's not good!" Yuma remarked with narrowed eyes. "Watch as I Overlay my level 7 Rainbow Shaman and Xyz Plant!" Fortuno called out with a smirk, pointing his right hand's index finger out as the two Rainbow Shamans turned into separate bright lights. One became a bright yellow colour, while the other became a bright brown one, before they both ascended into the air.
A galaxy-like portal appeared on the ground in front of Fortuno, with the two lights descending into it. "With these two monsters, I build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon Number 11: Big Eye!'' Fortuno called out, holding his hands up into the air as a cylinder with a glowing eye appeared with two purple Overlay Units circling around it.
Number 11: Big Eye ATK Points: 2600/ Rank: 7/ Overlay Units: 2.
"Now that's just creepy!" Yuma remarked with wide eyes at seeing Big Eye. "Watch out! Since it's a Rank 7 Xyz Monster, it must have a powerful effect!" Astral told his partner, keeping his guard up. "Hahaha! Did you really think I only had one Number? Naïve fool?! I've collected thousands of Numbers!" Fortuno laughed out as the Number mark '11' appeared on his forehead. "Now I activate Big Eye's special ability! By using an Overlay Unit, I can take control of one of your monsters!" Fortuno explained his monster's effect with a smirk as Big Eye absorbed an Overlay Unit into its eye.
Number 11: Big Eye Overlay units: 2 - 1 = 1.
"Say what!" Yuma called out in surprise, having not expected an effect like this. "Lightning Warrior, you will serve me!" Fortuno cried out as Big Eye unleashed a sort of soundwave at Lightning Warrior. Lightning Warrior gained a dark purple aura around himself, before he changed sides to Fortuno's side of the field. "Crap!" Yuma called out in surprise at seeing his monster join Fortuno.
"Lightning Warrior, attack Zubaba Knight!" Fortuno called out as Lighting Warrior fired a lightning stream at Zubaba Knight, destroying him. (2400 – 1600 = 800)
Yuma Life Points: 4000 – 800 = 3200.
"Now I activate your Lightning Warrior's special ability! You take 400 points of damage for every card in my hand! Since I have one left, you take 400 points of damage". Fortuno explained as the lighting streams went around Yuma, shocking him, but he didn't even flinch.
Yuma Life Points: 3200 – 400 = 2800.
"Now I set one face down card and end my turn". Fortuno declared his turn over as a face down card appeared on his field.
Yuma Life Points: 2800/ Number of cards in hand: 1.
"I draw!" Yuma called out as he drew his virtual card in a dramatic fashion, before it disappeared. A screen then appeared in front of him that showed Yuma's two cards. "If you think you can Summon a monster to defend yourself, you're mistaken! I reveal the Trap Freezing Dance!" Fortuno called out as his face down card revealed itself with the field starting to freeze.
"This Trap card keeps us from Normal, Special or Setting monsters for 2 turns!" Fortuno explained his Trap card's effect with a smirk on his face. "Sorry, but I don't think I'll agree to that! I play the Spell, Mystical Space Typhoon!" Yuma called out, thrusting his right hand out as the Spell Card appeared on his side of the field. "This Spell destroys one of your Spells or Traps!" The Syllables Duelist explained his card's effect as a typhoon appeared and shattered the ice, making Fortuno grit his teeth.
"Now I think I'll set a monster!" Yuma said as a face down card in sideways position appeared on his field. "Your move now!" Yuma told his opponent, declaring his turn over.
Fortuno Life Points: 900/ Number of cards in hand: 0.
"You shall pay, boy! It's my turn!" Fortuno called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion, before looking at it. "I play Cards of Sanctity!" Fortuno called out as a Spell card appeared on the field, before a bright light above the field. "With this, we draw until we have 6 cards in our hand!" Fortuno told his opponent, before both he and Yuma started drawing until they had 6 cards. Fortuno looked at his new cards and smirked at seeing what they were.
"I play the Spell Card, Monster Reborn to bring back Shock Master!" Fortuno called out as he picked one of the six cards, then held it out to show that it was indeed the legendary Spell card. Shock Master reappeared on the field, along with the Number mark of '16' appearing on Fortuno's right hand.
Number 16: Shock Master ATK Points: 2300/ Rank: 4/ Overlay Units: 0.
"Now I think I'll summon Black Shaman!" Fortuno called out as a monster that looked like Red Shaman appeared, only pure black.
(Black Shaman/ Level: 4/ Attribute: Dark/ Type: Spellcasters/ ATK Points: 0/ DEF Points: 0/ Effect: When this card is Summoned, select one Shaman monster in your graveyard and Special Summon it to your field)
"When Black Shaman is Summoned, I can Summon a Shaman monster from my graveyard! So arise Red Shaman!" Fortuno explained his monster's special ability as Red Shaman reappeared on the field.
Red Shaman ATK Points: 0000/ Level: 4.
"Now I Overlay Level 4 Red Shaman and Black Shaman!" Fortuno called out as Red Shaman turned into a bright red light, while Black Shaman turned into a black light that ascended into the air. A galaxy-like portal appeared on the ground in front of Fortuno, which the two bright lights descended into it. "With these two monsters, I build the Overlay Network and Xyz Summon Number 60: Dugales of Forgotten Time!" Fortuno called out with a smirk as a pair of black wings appeared, covering something from view.
The wings soon disappeared to reveal an old man like monster, wielding a staff and a golden eagle on its left shoulder with two red Overlay Units circling around it.
Number 60: Dugales of Forgotten Time ATK Points: 1200/ Rank: 4/ Overlay units: 2.
"So he posses three Numbers". Astral commented with his arms crossed. "Doesn't look so tough". Yuma remarked, not intimated by Dugales. "I activate Dugales' special ability! By using both of its Overlay Units, I can pick one of its three effects! I choose the option of doubling one of my monster's ATK Points! I choose Big Eye!" Fortuno explained as the number symbol '60' appeared on his left hand, before he held up his right hand. Dugales absorbed both its Overlay Units into his staff, causing a black aura to surround Big Eye, powering the Spellcaster-Type monster up.
Number 60: Dugales of Forgotten Time Overlay units: 2 - 2 = 0.
Number 11: Big Eye ATK Points: 2600 X 2 = 5200.
"Now Lightning Warrior, attack!" Fortuno called out with a smirk as Lightning Warrior unleashed more streams of lightning from his hand. "Not so fast! I play the Trap Card, Astral Barrier!" Yuma called out as his face down card revealed itself.
"Thanks to this trap's effect, your attack changes to a direct attack!" Yuma explained his trap as the streams of lightning went to him instead of his face down monster, shocking the Syllables Duelist once again.
Yuma Life Points: 2800 – 2400 = 400.
As the lightning continued to shock him, Yuma closed his eyes from the pain, before he felt something wrong. Yuma sees a flash in front of him. 'What's…going on?' Yuma thought to himself as he kept his eyes closed.
Yuma slowly opened his eyes to see that he was in some kind of hall with armoured warriors standing at attention in two rows on either side of him. "What the?'' Yuma said in wonder as he stood up, before looking over his left shoulder to see that he was sitting on a gold throne just a few seconds ago.
"What is this?'' Yuma asked in wonder before he looked to his right to see a mirror, showing himself only he was different. He was no longer just 13-years-old, but now looked to be 17-years-old. His hairy style was still the same, same coloured eyes and hair, only he wore different clothes.
He had a black short sleeve shirt, a red long cape with a sword attached to the back of it, blue gauntlets on his forearms, black gloves underneath the gauntlets, long black track pants and silver boots. And around his neck was the Emperor's key. "Where'd this getup come from?'' Yuma asked in confusion as he touched the mirror with his right hand.
"Dear Alcor". A beautiful, yet familiar voice greeted, getting Yuma to turn to see Rio walking up to him. Only she was now wearing a white priestess outfit that revealed her legs, white high-heeled shoes and around her neck was a key just like Yuma's emperor's key, only silver. In her arms was a baby with tuft hair covered in a white blanket.
Yuma blushed a little at the sight of Rio dressed like a Priestess. 'She looks beautiful. But didn't Rio tell me that in her dream, she was dressed like a priestess and saw some kind of underwater kingdom?' Yuma thought to himself in confusion at what is happening so far. However, that was then when Yuma took notice of the baby wrapped in a white blanked in Rio's arms.
"What's going on?'' Yuma questioned in confusion, making Rio giggle. "Is that anyway to talk to your childhood friend and wife, Marin? And in case you get short memory loss, this is our daughter Kairi. You can really say funny things from time to time, Alcor''. Rio or Marin said to Yuma as she looked at the baby in her arms lovingly, making Yuma widen his eyes in shock.
'What the hell is going on here? Rio and I just started dating a few days ago and now she's calling herself Marin, calling me Alcor and we have a kid!?' Yuma thought to himself in shock at what he is hearing. "No argument here. Alcor can be forgetful at times''. Another familiar voice said as Astral and Enna appeared in the room behind Rio.
"Astral, Enna.'' Yuma said in surprise to see Astral and Enna here as well. "This is a surprise. You should have let us know that you were coming to visit''. Rio or Marin said with a smile as she turned to face Astral and Enna. "We wanted to surprise you''. Enna told Marin with a smile that she returned with her own. "Well it's a surprise I love''. Rio replied to her best friend with a smile as Enna smiled at her.
"Anyway, I think it's time you should go greet your people, my Alcor''. Rio or Marin said to Yuma as she walked up to him, giving a short, but sweet kiss on the lips. Yuma or Alcor blushes at the kiss from his wife.
Later on, Yuma walked up to a balcony with Rio, Astral and Enna behind him, where they were greeted by citizens, old and young greeting Yuma warmly. "There he is! Hail to King Alcor! A great King and great leader!'' The citizens called out as they bowed to Alcor, looking up at him as if he is their beacon of hope with the children looking up at him with great admiration.
"I…I…'' Yuma struggled to say, having no idea what to say at witnessing this. However, another flash of light appeared in front of him and before he knew it, he was back in his present body, back in his duel against Fortuno. "What…was that?'' Yuma asked in confusion as he collapsed to his knees.
"Now Shock Master, attack Yuma's face down!'' Fortuno called out with a grin as Shock Master charged towards Yuma's face down monster, getting his attention as he focused back on the Duel. "Show yourself, Rescue Warrior!" Yuma called out as his face down card revealed itself with an orange suit warrior monster appearing from the card.
Rescue Warrior DEF Points: 1700/ Level: 4.
Shock Master bashed Rescue Warrior in the stomach, shattering the Warrior-Type monster. "You just activated Rescue Warrior's special ability! When he's destroyed in battle, I can select one of my cards you control and regain control of it!" Yuma explained his monster's effect as a ghost form of Rescue Warrior appeared, before flying towards Lightning Warrior and went inside of him.
Lightning Warrior lost its dark color, before it returned to Yuma's side of the field and faced Big Eye. "No matter, your Lightning Warrior is no match for my Big Eye! Attack!" Fortuno called out with a crazy laugh as Big Eye unleashed a sound wave attack from its eye. "I don't think so! Go…Rainbow Kuriboh!'' Yuma called out, thrusting his right hand out as a sudden flash of light appeared in front of Lightning Warrior.
The light disappeared to reveal Rainbow Kuriboh. "Kuri!" Rainbow Kuriboh called out as he charged at Big Eye, before proceeding to fly around him and leaving a rainbow veil with Big Eye's eye following the little Fiend-Type monster. "What is this?" Fortuno questioned in annoyance at seeing Rainbow Kuriboh stop his monster's attack. "Simple! When an opponent's Xyz Monster declares an attack, I can equip this little guy to your monster and it can't attack anymore!" Yuma explained his monster's special ability as Rainbow Kuriboh kept floating around Big Eye.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. You only have a mere 100 Life Points left! You cannot hope to win!" Fortuno laughed out as Yuma simply narrowed his eyes at him. "You're wrong! Even if I have just 1 Life Point left, that means I still have a chance to turn this around!" Yuma called out in defiance to Fortuno's words, getting Astral to look at his partner with a smile.
"Oh please, during this whole Duel I've been able to see your cards! I've been able to see all your moves before you even know it! You've lost, accept it and bow before my master Kite!'' Fortuno called out with a crazy grin on his face as he slotted in a card with a face down card appearing on his field.
Number 11: Big Eye ATK Points: 5200 – 2600 = 2600.
Yuma Life Points: 100/ Number of cards in hand: 6.
"Not on your life! I'll never give up, no matter!" Yuma exclaimed in retaliation, before looking up at Kite and gritted his teeth. "No matter who I face, even if it is Kite, I'll never surrender! I'll never abandon hope!" The Syllables Duelist cried out, making Astral widen his eyes in surprise at one of the words he used. 'Hope...' Astral thought to himself, before he began thinking back to his past duels with Yuma. He remembered how Yuma continued to fight, even when the odds were against him and obtain victory.
'That's it. Yuma has been giving me these feelings ever since I first met him. He's taught me how to 'hope'. It's not just him, Rio, Shark and Enna have taught me the what it is like to have feelings and to have hope'. Astral said in his mind in realization, finally realizing what it's like to feel alive. He widened his eyes upon feeling a shift of power inside of him, making Astral widen his eyes.
(Inside the Emperor's Key)
The gears inside the airship were glowing a golden colour as they activated and spun. Energy began gathering at the tip of the airship, charging up a sort of blast., before firing a bright white beam towards the sky.
(Outside of the Emperor's Key)
The Emperor's Key sudden gained a small golden glow as it lightly floated off of Yuma's chest, getting his attention as he looked at his pendant. Suddenly, electricity danced off of it, before a bright light appeared from it, making Yuma widen his eyes as an electrical beam shot out of his key. The beam struck Astral, releasing light coloured waves of energy as Astral closed his eyes and gleamed a powerful glow. "Astral?!" Yuma said in surprise , having not expected this.
Astral's powerful glowing enabled Fortuno and even Yuma's friends to temporarily see him as he continued to glow. "W-What in the world?" Fortuno gasped in surprise, staring up at Astral with wide eyes. Cat was lightly gasping in awe as she stared at Astral. Eventually, the glowing stopped with Astral opening his eyes. He turned to look at his surprised partner and gave him a smile. "Yuma, win this". Astral told his partner, getting Yuma to return the smile and nod, before he turned to face Fortuno.

"Alright, here goes!" Yuma exclaimed as he placed his right hand right at the edge of his Duel Disk, before a virtual card came out of the orb and into between his index and middle fingers. "My turn now! I draw!" Yuma called out as he drew his card in a dramatic fashion by swiping his right hand out to the side, before holding it in front of his face. The Syllables Duelist grew a smirk on his face as he flipped the card over to show that it was Gagaga Sister. "To start off, I Summon Gagaga Sister!" The Syllables Duelist called out as the virtual card disappeared from his fingers. Gagaga Sister's card materialized in front of Yuma, before it gleamed with the female monster floating out of the glow. Gagaga Sister gave a wink and a happy cry as she spun around, before taking a pose.
Gagaga Sister ATK Points: 200/ Level: 2.
"At this moment, Gagaga Sister's special ability activates!" Yuma called out as multiple crimson cards appeared in front of him. "When she's successfully Normal Summoned, I can add a "Gagaga" Spell or Trap card from my deck to my hand!" Yuma explained his monster's effect as his eyes searched through the crimson cards, before he stopped at one card. He swiped his right hand forward and grabbed the card, causing the rest of the virtual cards to disappear, before holding the card out to reveal that it was Gagagabolt. "I select the Spell card, Gagagabolt! And I think I'll activate it!" The Syllables Duelist called out, before Gagagabolt's virtual card disappeared from his fingers.
Gagaga Sister gave out a giggle as she held her right hand up to the sky with her index finger out. Storm clouds gathered above her, before lightning came out and struck Gagaga Sister's finger, but did no harm to her. "If I control a Gagaga monster, this Spell destroys one of your cards! And I think I'll go with your face down card!" Yuma explained his Spell card's effect, before holding his right hand out. Gagaga Sister gave another giggle as she pointed her right hand towards Fortuno's face down card, before firing a bolt of lightning at it. The lightning struck the face down card, causing it to flip itself over to show that it was the Trap card, "Ghosts From The Past", before it was destroyed.
"How dare you!" Fortuno exclaimed in outrage at his Trap card's destruction. "I'm not finished yet! Since I control a Gagaga Monster, I can Special Summon Gagaga Clerk from my hand!" Yuma called out as a crimson virtual card materialized between his right hand's index and middle fingers, before he swiped his hand out to show the card to his opponent. An orange light appeared over Gagaga Sister, before Gagaga Clerk appeared from the light, having a kind smile on her face.
Gagaga Clerk ATK Points: 400/ Level: 2.
"Now, I activate Gagaga Sister's second ability!" Yuma called out, before Gagaga Sister held up her right hand as her key appeared, before she took ahold of it. "I can select another Gagaga Monster on my field, then that monster's Level and Gagaga Sister's Level becomes the combined amount!" The teenage boy explained his monster's ability as the key let out a bright light that shined on Gagaga Sister and Gagaga Clerk, increasing their Levels.
Gagaga Sister Level: 2 + 2 = 4.
Gagaga Clerk Level: 2 + 2 = 4.
"Now, Summon Utopia!" Astral told his partner, making Yuma grin in excitement. "No problem! I Overlay the Level 4 Gagaga Sister and Gagaga Clerk!" Yuma cried out to the heavens as he held his right hand up to the sky. Gagaga Sister turned into a purple bright light, while Gagaga Clerk became a brown bright light, before they both ascended into the air. "With these two monsters, I build the Overlay Network!" The Syllables Duelist called out as a galaxy-like portal appeared in front of him with the two lights descending into it. "Xyz Summon! Appear, Number 39: Utopia!" The teenage boy called out an explosion of energy erupted out of the portal.
Rising out of the portal was a large object that looked like an ornate white and gold sword with two balls of golden light orbiting around it. The sword unfolded and took on the shape of a warrior with white armor trimmed with gold. On its head was a helmet with three golden horns, and on its back was a folded pair of white metal wings. In the center of its chest was a green gem similar to the one embedded in the Emperor's Key. Written on the large piece of armor on his left shoulder in red was the number, 39. Utopia gave out a battle cry as he took his usual battle stance.
Number 39: Utopia ATK Points: 2500/ Rank: 4/ Overlay units: 2.
(Music end)
"The pieces of a new way to victory have all gathered here!" Astral exclaimed as he turned to face his partner, before holding his right hand out towards him, before a pulse of golden energy came out and went towards Yuma's Duel Disk. A bright golden light erupted from Yuma's Duel Disk, much to his surprise as he stared down at it. Then, a crimson virtual card came out of the orb and hanged at the end. Yuma picked the card up with his right hand and looked at it, only to see light covering the image. "The power of hope, the one who can truly change light, Number C39: Utopia Ray!" Astral remarked as the light cleared to reveal the card's image. The card was an Xyz Card, showing an evolved form of Utopia like Utopia Beyond, but different.
(Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Sound Duel 2 - Disc 2 - 28. Chaos No. 39 King of Wishes, Hope Ray)
"A Number C!?" Yuma said in disbelief, looking at the card that he was holding with wide eyes. "By combining Utopia with its Overlay Units, Utopia can further evolve itself, just like when he evolved into Utopia Prime! The time is now Yuma!" Astral explained to his partner as Utopia transformed back into his ornate white and hold sword from with its overlay units circling around it. "Go Chaos Xyz Evolution!" Yuma and Astral called out in perfect synchronicity as another galaxy-like portal appeared on the ground in front of them. "Get ready for Number C39: Utopia Ray!" The two partners called out together, pointing towards the sky as the sealed form of Utopia descended into the galaxy portal, before causing an explosion of energy.
A corrupted red 39 flashed, before the sealed form of Utopia's evolved form appeared. Rising out of the galaxy-like portal was another large object in the form of an ornate black and gold sword with three golden balls of light orbiting around it. The sword unfolded and changed into a new warrior clad in black armor with gold trim similar to Utopia's original form. His new helmet had a mask-like face with a single horn on the forehead. On his back in between his wings was a large black sword. Utopia Ray's flashed red as he let out a grunt as he took a new battle stance.
Number C39: Utopia Ray ATK Points: 2500/ Rank: 4/ Overlay units: 3.
"A Number C!?" Fortuno exclaimed in disbelief, staring up at Utopia Ray in shock, before he gritted his teeth. "But my Big Eye is still stronger, you can't win!" The adult stated, believing that he still had the advantage, even against this new monster. "We activate Utopia Ray's special ability!" Yuma and Astral called out, pointing towards Utopia Ray with their separate hands. Giant black clawed hands tucked out from Utopia Ray's second pair of layered pauldrons and drew the large black sword and held it up to the sky.
"For each Overlay Unit that we use, Utopia Ray's ATK Points increase by 500! We use all 3 of its Overlay Units! Utopia Ray's ATK Points go up!" Yuma and Astral called out together as all three of Utopia Ray's overlay units were absorbed into the large black sword, surging it with golden energy. The golden energy surged through Utopia Ray as well, changing his dark gray colours into bright white, even his claws as he powered up.
Number C39 Utopia Ray ATK Points: 2500 + 1500 = 4000/ Overlay units: 3 - 3 = 0.
"What!?" Fortuno exclaimed in shock at seeing Utopia Ray's ATK Points surpass Big Eye's. "Then the opponent's monster's ATK Points goes down by 1000 for each Overlay Unit used!" The two partners further explained their ace monster's ability as Big Eye powered down big time.
Number 11: Big Eye ATK Points: 2600 - 3000 = 0.
"Impossible!" Fortuno called out in disbelief at seeing his strongest monster's ATK Points reduced to 0. "Go, Utopia Ray! Attack Big Eye!" Yuma and Astral called out together as they pointed towards Big Eye with their separate hands. Utopia Ray placed his hands on the two scabbard swords hanging on his waist, before the scabbards burst apart, revealing the hidden swords inside. Utopia Ray drew them and flew into the sky above Big Eye. "Rising Sun Chaos Slash!" The two partners called out as Utopia Rya first sliced Big Eye with his two swords, before taking a hold of the giant black sword with his giant clawed hands and held it up to the sky. Gold energy gathered into the sword, causing it to gleam a gold colour. Utopia Ray gave out a cry as he swung his gold energy surged sword down on Big Eye, cutting him into six pieces, before he exploded.
Fortuno cried out as the shockwave from Utopia Ray's attack blasted him off his feet and sent him crashing unto the ground on his back, losing consciousness as well. (4000 - 0 = 4000)
Fortuno Life Points: 900 - 4000 = 0.
Winner: Yuma!
(Music end)
A screen appeared, showing an image of Yuma with the words 'Win' under it, before Utopia Ray, Lightning Warrior, Shock Master and Dugales all burst into particles, followed by the AR - Vision deactivating. "That's game''. Yuma said with a smirk, sticking his fingers forward as Astral held out his right hand out towards their defeat opponent. Fortuno's 3 Number cards flew out from Fortuno's body and into Astral's hands, who held the three new Numbers with a small smile on his face.
"You're next Kite!" Yuma called out as he pointed at Kite, who didn't responded or even looked at Yuma, making him frown in confusion. "Wait a second…" Yuma whispered to himself with wide eyes as he brought out a virtual card with his right hand, before he threw it at Kite. The virtual card flew and went through Kite, before the head came off. The head rolled down the stairs, before stopping a few feet away from Yuma, who looked at the head and saw that it was just a wooden copy of Kite.
"A fake…son of a-" Yuma growled out in rage as he walked up to the wooden head, before he stomped on it, breaking the replica. "Yuma!" A familiar voice called out as Tori, Bronk, Flip, Caswell and Taiki all rushed out of a door at the end of the room. "You guys okay?" Yuma asked his friends, but they went past him and surrounded an empty space with even Cat joining them. "He's amazing!" Tori called out as everyone called out Astral's name.
"He saved us!/ Magnificent!/ That was maybe the coolest thing ever!" Bronk, Caswell and Flip said in awe, having no idea that Astral was floating right next to Yuma, who sighed, before he started walking to the exit. "Next time this happens, save yourselves if you're not gonna thank me!" Yuma called out, getting everyone's attention as they saw their friend leaving. Tori, Cat, Bronk, Taiki, Caswell and Flip all ran after Yuma to apologize, but he paid them no mind. Yuma brought out his new costume make crimson Duel-Gazer and sent a message to his girlfriend, telling her that everything was alright and that he'd be back by the park.
(Half an hour later)
After finally losing the ungrateful group, Yuma was back at the park that he was hanging out with Rio before the whole ordeal. "Ungrateful jerks. And after I risked my life for them''. Yuma grumbled out, sitting on the grass with his right hand holding his chin. "Whose ungrateful?'' A familiar voice questioned, getting Yuma to turn to see Rio and Enna walking up to them.
The only difference was around Rio's neck was…the same silver Emperor's Key that Yuma saw in that strange vision, making his eyes widen at seeing it. "T-That's-'' Yuma said in shock as Rio looked at her new pendent with a smile, before she held it up with her right hand. "Enna gave this to me while you were taking care of Fortuno''. Rio told her boyfriend as she sat next to him, before she leaned her head on his left shoulder.
"Rio deserved it as proof of our friendship. I'll leave you two alone now''. Enna said with a smile as she disappeared. "So what happened?'' Rio asked her boyfriend on what happened, who was still staring at the Silver Emperor's key in shock. "W-Well it turns out that Kite wasn't even there". Yuma began to explain as Rio wrapped her arms around his left arm.
"Huh?" The Ice Queen questioned in confusion at her boyfriend's words, but her focus was on the sunset. "Turns out Fortuno doesn't even know know Kite''. Yuma continued to explain as Rio listen carefully. The couple spent the afternoon together, watching the sunset with Yuma telling Rio what had happened to him in his duel against Fortuno.
(Later that night back in Fortuno's mansion)
"Hahaha, that foolish boy thinks he took all of my Numbers. Luckily I stored away my most powerful one''. Fortuno said as he was lying down on the staircase, holding a card as a black aura surrounded him.
Fortuno looked up with a smirk, before he widened his eyes in shock. "I-It's you…Kite!'' Fortuno called out in shock. At the top of the staircase was Kite, who had his Duel Disk on and sitting on the throne was the hooded figure of Luna, who had her left leg over her right. "Master, I've been watching you! I think you're incredible! I would do anything and give you anything!'' Fortuno cried out to Kite, who looked at him through the corner of his left eye.
"Good to know, in that case be my little guineapig. I've got some new cards I wanna try out and when I'm done, I'll take that Number''. Kite said with a smirk on his face as Fortuno looked at him in shock.
Outside the mansion, lightning roared. "I Synchro Summon Star Eater!'' Kite called out from within the mansion, before a shadow figure of a dragon appeared in the sky when the lightning roared again, before disappearing.
Back in the mansion, Kite held a card with his right hand's index and middle fingers as he flipped it over to reveal Number 74: Master of Blades. "I thank you for your loyalty''. Kite thanked the soulless Fortuno, who laid on the staircase. "Another Number, making a total of 25''. Luna said with a smile as she stood up from the throne as Kite looked at his sister.
"Shall we get going, your majesty'' Kite asked with a smirk on his face, making Luna giggle at her older brother. "Yes…we may''. Luna replied to her brother as they disappeared, like they were never there to begin with.
And done! Sorry if it's not as big as the others, but my next Vrains chapter will make up for it, I promise.
