Author's Note: Time for a new pairing! Enjoy the story and R&R.

Pairing: Developing Yuhi x Chupataro.

Summary:

There are some forms of alien activity even MIK turns a blind eye to. The truly alien activity between Chupataro and Ohdo Yuhi, for instance.

Chapter 125: Goofy Goopers

Voices.

Shouts.

A battle for control.

Chupa! Why's it so noisy out, chupa?

"Chupataro?"

Yuhi? Is that Yuhi, cabra?

"Chupataro, you're finally up!"

Chupataro rubbed his scaly arm across his eyes. He didn't want to be awake. He wanted to sleep some more. But Yuhi was calling.

"How do you feel?"

"Lousy. This is?"

"UTS."

"How long has Chupa been out, chupa?"

"A couple days."

"A couple days, chupa? R-Resurrection of the Dead! What about Resurrection of the Dead, chupa? Did Anesan –? Chupaaaa!"

"Easy, easy! You're still banged up from the hits Yuamu gave ya."

"You've been at Chupa's bedside this whole time, chupa?"

Yuhi returned to snorting. "It was Purisaki-san. Purisaki-san! I just stopped in between all this Darkmen business."

"In the end, Chupa wasn't able to do it, chupa…Beat Anesan, cabra…Resurrection of the Dead is –"

"With Damamu."

"D-Damamu? What do you mean it's with Damamu, Yuhi?"

…

The Dark Power inside the soy sauce container increased. Yuamu put it away, and stepped toward Yuhi, who was cradling an unconscious Chupataro.

"Resurrection of the Dead. I won the Duel, so as agreed, hand it over."

"Yuamu, you –! Why'd ya –?" Yuhi's tears were laced with anger.

"Were you ever good enough for my brother?"

"Ya could've just attacked him normally!"

"Do you see? You haven't changed at all. You're still the same, Chupataro. Lose to me, just like before."

"Sayin' those things to him was overkill!"

She attacked Chupataro psychologically, yes. But she also channelled dark matter material to give Dark Matter Galaxy Dragon's energy blasts some added oomph, as though the damage were taken in Dark Matter Space.

"Resurrection of the Dead. Hand it over."

"Dammit! Is nothing I say gonna get through to ya anymore?" Yuhi pulled the card out of Chupataro's Graveyard. "HERE! Here's your stupid Magic Card!"

"Thank you, Yuhi. With this, Yuga's future –"

A smoke bomb exploded.

"Intruder!" Sabyuas coughed.

"Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep! What is this? Who –?"

"Mama! Resurrection of the Dead's been –!"

A fast-moving figure in black had stolen the card out of Yuhi's hand, and had a head start running.

"Ranran?" Yuamu wrinkled her nose. "Sabyuas, Bruyea, Zeyet. Capture her!"

Team Yudias still had a chance.

The Dark Meister took one last look at Yuhi before ordering CPT to summon the catwalk back to Valvelgear, and selected that lingering moment to provoke him further.

"You are unworthy. It's not enough."

"By your frustration and resentment, you already know why, Ohdo Yuhi. You know what you lack. You don't have the same resolve as Ohdo Yuamu. She was willing to throw away everything for her goal."

It's that part of Zuwijo that pissed Yuhi off.

"Yes…I'm not willing to throw away everything. Because –!"

Chupataro…

"Because –!"

Damamu…

"I've gained so much!"

Yuamu and the Darkmen were already gone. He and Chupataro were alone on the playground.

"Bocchama!"

"Tazaki-san? Purisaki-san?"

"Bocchama! Was Yuamu-ojosama –?"

"She left to go get Resurrection of the Dead. Tazaki-san, please. Take care of Chupataro for me."

"We can certainly do that, but…"

"Where are you going, Yuhi-bocchan?"

"This isn't over yet."

They couldn't see Yuhi's face as he walked away. Merely the back of his cape.

I'll follow my road.

…

"Damamu? Then…Yudias and the others are –?"

"Mm. They're back too."

"Is Damamu –?"

"Ranran took Resurrection of the Dead and brought it to Asaka. There was this bait-'n-switch with Asaka hidin' it in a safe but she really gave it to Damamu to throw Yuamu off the scent. Yudias duelled the Darkmen and won, so Damamu split in two again…"

"Where are they now, chupa?"

"Out gettin' all-you-can-eat udon."

"Chupa? Udon?"

"Asaka promised Damamu all-you-can-eat udon to keep Resurrection of the Dead hidden. Yuamu found out, so the Damamus are now on the lam. Yudias and the others are lookin' for them."

"Wanted like criminals, cabra…"

"Chupataro, ya didn't need to go all 'Take me to your leader!' and take on Yuamu by yourself!"

"Chupa thought Chupa's new cards and Resurrection of the Dead would be enough, chupa!"

"Yeah, about your new cards. You've got some explaining to do! Where'd that Darkness card come from? Why'd you have Prime Meeeg-chan? And there was that Fusion…"

"Yuhi the Machine Dragon Knight, chupa."

"That! That! What the heck happened down here while I was in outer space?"

"Would you believe Chupa if Chupa told you Kuaidul's ghost is to blame, chupa?"

"I dunno 'bout his ghost, but Kuaidul is back too, so…"

"Chupa? He revived too, cabra?"

"Sorta."

Chupataro tried sitting up again, and failed spectacularly.

"What did I just say? Don't push yourself!"

"Chupa can't stay in bed all day, chupa! Chupa needs to make it to Damamu before Anesan does, cabra!"

"Yudias will handle it. You take it easy!"

Chupataro fell back against Yuhi's pillow. "Chupa bets Damamu is having fun though, cabra."

"Yeah. Probably."

Silence.

"Yuamu's really changed, chupa."

"Yeah."

"And Chupa hasn't."

"Chupataro!"

"Chupa couldn't protect Chupa's monsters, chupa! Chupa couldn't protect you and Damamu, cabra!"

"I love that ya care and wanna protect me, but I'm self-reliant, and so's Damamu. Isn't that why ya hung back on Earth? To not baby Damamu as much?"

"Actually, Chupa backed out because Chupa received a video tape from Yuga that was really from Kuaidul, chupa."

"What?"

"Long story, cabra."

"Another one? You rest. Tell me later. I gotta go."

"Where, chupa?"

"Isn't it obvious? To find my kids! Yuamu isn't the only mama in town!"

…

After the Damamus filled up on udon, they flew to the game centre to play games on Qonami arcade cabinets.

"Hey? I wonder what Yuhi's doin'."

"Dunno, but this game is super fun, isn't it?"

"Mm! O-ho-hoy! My score's higher!"

They started to sing amongst themselves.

Oh, I'm a goofy gooper, yeah
You're a goofy gooper, yeah
We're all goofy goopers, yeah
Goofy, goofy, gooper, gooper, yeah (yeah)
I'm a goofy gooper, yeah
You're a goofy gooper, yeah
We're all goofy goopers, yeah
Goofy, goofy, gooper, gooper, yeah (yeah)
