Yu-Gi-Oh! Hearts of Darkness *Reboot* [IC/PG-13/Started/Not Accepting]

[Kohakuchan19]

Amber Drew her next card without a word and looked down at the two cards she had. [i]"This might help..."[/i]

[b]"I Special Summon Cyber Dragon in Attack Mode... Then I will set one monster on the field..."[/b]

There was a Flash of Light as a large metalic Dragon appeared. It let out a loud roar at the opposing monsters.

[b]"Alright then.. now I activate my face-down card, Safe Zone to protect my Cyber Dragon. Now Cyber Dragon, Attack the Crystal Core!"[/b]

[b][color=#b22222]"Go right ahead you fool..."[/color][/b]

The Cyber Dragon opens it's mouth and let loose a laser blast at the Crystal Core, Destroying it, Seth takes no damage from the attack due to both monsters having 2100 atk, but the safe zone keeps the Cyber Dragon on the field.

[b][color=#b22222]"Now.. I will Special Summon 2 Covered Cores in Attack in it's place... Seeing as I only have enough room for two..."[/color][/b]

And now Seth had a full field of monsters on the field, But Amber knew it would happen... Perhaps she had a plan, despite her current state of fear.

The Drone did not answer Haruto, instead he just Activated his Duel Disk and inserted his Deck in response.

Chris chuckled and shook his head at the professor before him. [color=#D4AF37]"This isn't a key in the physical sense. It's a metaphorical key. It unlocks something that the person who sent us on this quest wants to remain locked away. There's a war going on out there, in between the gaps of the universes."[/color] Chris sighed and looked out the window, up at the sky. [color=#D4AF37]"Two organizations are fighting against each other, and will not stop until the other is utterly destroyed. This key could be used to turn the tide of the war. My associate Atsuko and I want to find the Key to use as a bargaining chip to end the war, because her mother is out there, trying to stop the two forces from tearing each other apart in this senseless violence.[/color] He looked back at Dr. Faker, his expression now forlorn. [color=#D4AF37]"Please, [i]senor[/i]. We're desperate, and have been grabbing at straws. Your tournament is one of those straws. All we want is a lead. A hint. Anything."[/color]

[Barian Warlord]

Haruto noticed the drone silently activate his duel disk and it appeared that he was giving his approval for Haruto to go first so Haruto activated his duel disk and drew six cards.
[color=#0000ff]"I'll start by playing Photon Pirate in attack mode then I'll activate the effect of the Photon Cruiser in my hand allowing him to equip himself onto my Photon Pirate giving him an addition 1000 attack and then I'll set 1 card face down to end my turn."[/color]
From bellow Photon Pirate rose up a massive ship that Photon Pirate began riding it waiting for the Opponent's move, after Haruto ended his turn he was nervous his opponent hadn't shown anything yet so he didn't know what kind of deck he'd be up against.

[Durandamon]

Drake was left in a bad position when Yuki teleported. Not only that, but when Yuki released an energy ball at Drake, he couldn't move; Leon's soul from inside Drake had heard Amber's plea, and started reacting. Drake was hit hard by the energy ball, and landed a few feet further, just at the edge of the black flame ring. -[u] "What the hell!?" -[/u]Drake's voice had returned to normal, into a guttural, evil one instead of Leon's. - "[u]He is finally snapping...It's that Amber that is turning him back...Yuki, do you really think it's gonna be so easy?[/u]" - Drake got up, and raised his blades. They both became imbued in a black and green fire that even burned Leon's hands while holding them. Drake swinged them both, and two waves of hellfire were shot at Yuki with amazing speed.

[color=#800080][i]"I...Amber...sorry..."[/i][/color]
[color=#40e0d0][i]"LEON!? OH MY GOD YOU ARE ALIVE!"[/i][/color]
[color=#800080][i]"Son...ya. I should have destroyed him earlier...Sorry."[/i][/color]
[color=#40e0d0][i]"Now you can't do anything, but we'll defeat Drake together, allright?"[/i][/color]
[color=#800080][i]"No...Am...Am..."[/i][/color] - Leon was struggling in order to regain control over his own body.

[color=#800080][b]"AMBER![/b][/color]" - Leon wasn't able to move his body at all, Drake still controlled it. But he could talk, and that was something at least. [color=#800080]- "I'll get you out! I promise! All of you, Blazey, Neo, I'll get you out of this." [/color]

[Kohakuchan19]

[b]"Leon?" [/b]Amber had become distracted from the duel for a moment as she heard Leon's voice. [b]"Leon! I knew you were still in there somewhere!"[/b]
[b][color=#b22222]"Enough Banter! Draw!"[/color][/b] Said Bacterian as he drew he card.

[color=#b22222][b]"Now that I have the opportunity.. I will now show you my true power... hahaha... HAHAHAHAHA!!!"[/b][/color]
[b]"Bacterian..." [/b]Amber looked back to her opponent [b]"What are you talking about...?"[/b]
[b][color=#b22222]"Allow Me to show you.. I will overlay my Big Core, and Big Core Mk-2.. With me! To perform another XYZ summon."[/color][/b]
[b]"W-what?" [/b]Amber had no idea what she was in for... but she was about to find out...

The Big Core and Big Core Mk-2 fused into Bacterian's as he himself began to mutate into a much uglier and sinister version of himself.

[b]"What in the hell..?" [/b]Amber muttered as she watch the event take Place.

[b][color=#ff0000]"Watch now Human... As I become Number C89... Infectious Bacterian!"[/color][/b]

[spoiler='Number C89 (Only the Lore)']
Number C89: Infectious Bacterian (Rank 6)
3 Level 6 Monsters You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a "Number 89: Bacterian Overlord" you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) This card gains 300 ATK and DEF for each xyz material attached. One per turn detach one xyz material from this card to place 1 bacterian counter on two of your opponent's face-up monsters. When any monsters with a Bacterian counter are destroyed, that monster becomes an xyz material for this card instead of going to the graveyard or being removed from play.
ATK: 2000 / DEF: 2000[/spoiler]

[color=#ff0000]"HAHAHAHAHA!!! And now.. I have a total of 4 xyz materials.. Making both my ATK and DEF go up to 3200![/color]
[b]"This cannot be happening...!" [/b]Amber said in horror. [b]"This can't be happening!!"[/b]
[b][color=#ff0000]"Oooh but it is.. And now.... I will Attack Your Face Down with my Covered Core! I'll flip a coin and call heads now"[/color][/b]

Suddenly a virtual coin was flipped, but it landed Tails. So when the Covered Core Attacked the face-down, It too was destroyed along with Amber's Monster.

[b]"AACK!!" [/b]Amber said as she was suddenly trying to dodge scraps of metal that was flying towards her. [b]"This is Insane!!"[/b]

[b][color=#ff0000]"HAHAHAHA!!! That's right Human.. Dance! Dance for Your soon to be Master!"[/color][/b]

[b][color=#000000]"Grrr...."[/color][/b]

[color=#008080][i]"Settle down Amber... Things might look rough now.. but we'll figure this out.. I know we can."[/i][/color]

[b]"... You destroyed my last Jade Knight.. I'll use it's effect now.." [/b]Amber was breathing heavily from all the dodging around. [b]"I choose.. Victory Viper... XX03..."[/b]

[color=#008080][i]"Amber.. Are you Alright...?"[/i][/color]

[b]"... I'll be alright..."[/b]

[b][color=#ff0000]"My Attack Phase is not over just yet... Now my Remaining Covered Core and I will Attack your Cyber Dragon! Heads once again for my monster's fate."[/color][/b]

The coin was flipped and it landed Heads this time, then Suddenly the Covered Core fired Missiles and Bacterian spat out more energy at Cyber Dragon, though it was not destroyed, some of the Attack managed to get through and strike Amber Directly with the energy and explosions from the attacks making a total of 1500 damage to her LP.

[b]"AAAAH!!!" [/b]She screamed as she was struck. She then found herself on the ground, struggling to pick herself up, now she had burns and was bleeding from cuts and wounds. [b]"... Z..Zebulos..."[/b]

[b][color=#008080]"Amber! Bacterian you bastard!! I'll never forgive you for this!!" [/color][/b]
[b]"I can't.. believe.. how painful this is.. ACK!!" [/b]Amber started coughing a bit, mostly from taking such a hit. [b]"This is it.. I think I'm actually going to die in this wretched place..."[/b]
[b][color=#008080]"No Amber! You can't give up!"[/color][/b]

[color=#ff0000][b]"HAHAHA!! This is more like it.. Just stay down there like a good future slave.. That is if you even survive to be my slave! HAHAHA!!"[/b][/color]
"[color=#008080][b]GRRRR!!!"[/b][/color]
[color=#ff0000][b]"Anyway... You'll be Happy to know that I cannot special summon any more BES.. As I have used them all up... But I will set 1 card face down and end my turn.[/b][/color]

[Love of Ghibli]

Dorian watches as all of these new people arrive in the warehouse and how they made no effort to conceal themselves. One costumed fool even tried to get attention by asking a question to everyone, but Dorian remained hidden. Apparently some new person was challenging the third drone to battle, a little girl walked in talking about heroes, and apparently the central focus of it all is a duel between a girl and a germ and a some super power duel between two possessed people. At the moment Dorian took in all of this information his phone vibrated and it was a message from Butler saying he is in place. Oh the ever reliable Butler who needs monsters when you have Butler. Dorian began to mouth his words instead of say them because he knew Butler was watching and could read lips of course.

[color=#ff8c00]You know had she gone for Chimeratech fortress dragon when he had all of those machines on the field she probably could be winning right now, but of course that would mean she is trying to win. I guess she just wants to die slowly or maybe her digi-vice can't let her download card text properly. This place is getting quite crowded however children, adults, the miscellaneous (referring to the costumed idiot). No matter, now that your in position this can be over as soon as this climatic duel takes place like daddy Von Schrodder always says there are 3 characters in every story the protagonist, the antagonist, and the opportunist. No matter what the opportunist comes out alive in the end.[/color]

Dorian remained hidden and watched all of the events taking place soon he new his time to strike would come.

[宇佐見 蓮子@C94]

[color=#000000][b]"What the- Arrghhh!!" [/b][/color][color=#000000]No.44 was hit by Drake's hellfire directly in his face, causing his armor to burn in an amazing array of flames as No.44 continued to scream in pain. Once the flame had died out, most of No.44's upper armor has disappeared, burned off by Drake's flames. [/color][color=#4b0082]"I'm free... At last..." [/color][color=#000000]The disappeared armor revealed Yuki's face and his chest, but something was different. His purple hair has turned back to it's original sleek, silver color. His hate filled eyes with red pupils and a black sclera has been replaced by his original eyes. Apparently free of No.44's control, Yuki placed his right hand on his chest. [/color][color=#4b0082]"Drake... No, Leon. Kill me, please." [/color][color=#000000]Immediately[/color] after he was freed from No.44, Yuki requested for Leon to kill him right at where he stands.

The reason for this stretches back to almost 3 years ago, when Yuki first came in contact with No.44. Right at the moment Yuki grabbed No.44, he took control of Yuki's body and placed his soul in a cage in the deepest reaches of his mind. Since then, No.44 was always in control of Yuki's body. Even when he was apparently free of No.44's control during the start of the WDC, he (No.44) was still in control of Yuki's body, albeit not completely. But the real reason why Yuki wanted to die is because of the crimes he did when controlled by No.44. He stole the soul of several people immediately after No.44 took control of him, he manipulated several women to become his protectors when the police appeared after he killed a man in a duel, he threatened several WDC participants just in order to duel Leon, all in all, what he has done for the last 3 years was nothing but crime. Had he knew the consequences of getting No.44, he wouldn't have touched the card in the first place. Of course, the only people who knew about the real Yuki was just No.51. But it's all too late now. There is nothing else for Yuki but death and punishment in the afterlife. The idea of dieing was not thought of until very recently, during his duel with Dorian. Yuki spoke to No.51 about his future plans inside his mind.

*cue flashback*

[color=#4b0082]"Taiyohime, I have a question to ask you."[/color]
[color=#ffd700][b]"Yes, what is it?"[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"If I were to die, will that destroy No.44 as well?"[/color]
[b][color=#ffd700]"Well, yes. When the owner is killed, so will the number. Why are you asking this? You're not actually planning to..."[/color][/b]
[color=#4B0082]"Relax. No.44 wouldn't let me die anyway."[/color]
[color=#ffd700][b]"Thank god. You almost gave me a heart attack there, if I had one."[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"No, but I will die. And I found a way to do it efficiently, without No.44 interrupting."[/color]
[color=#ffd700][b]"EH?!"[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"Jeez, stay calm, please. Anyway, remember that guy Leon No.44 challenged yesterday?"[/color]
[color=#ffd700]"[b]W-well yes, I remember him. But-"[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"I told you, stay calm. I don't know if you remember this, but Leon was also controlled by a number. And even though it disappeared yesterday, I have no doubt it will reappear today."[/color]
[color=#ffd700][b]"Oh my... I know where you're heading already..."[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"Heh, i had no idea to hide it from the beginning. Anyway, when it does appear, there is no doubt that No.44 will hunt him down, since he is attracted to power like moths to a lamp.[/color][color=#4B0082] If they do fight, let's say Leon killed me and No.44 in the process. But I would die as well, and so will you."[/color]
[color=#ffd700][b]"If we were going to use that, I need to be alive!"[/b][/color]
[color=#4B0082]"I know. And here's my plan to keep you alive as I and No.44 die. When No.44 was flying, I saw my sister standing on heartland wall where you talked to No.44 last night. Right now, I have no doubt that 44 will lose the duel and will fly away in disappointment. Now this is my real question; are you able to move your card form?[/color]"
[color=#ffd700][b]"Yes I can. But... I don't see any point in doing that."[/b][/color]
[color=#4b0082]"Listen, when No.44 flies away from this opponent, I need you to slip out of the deck box and fly towards Fubuki. I know you have a special ability to track down numbers wherever they are, so when I die, I need you to guide Fubuki towards my corpse and use your ability."[/color]
[b][color=#ffd700]"I see. That way I will be able to stay alive and able to use that, right?"[/color][/b]
[color=#4b0082]"Absolutely right. I need you... To revive me!"[/color]
[b][color=#ffd700]"Let's just hope this works..."[/color][/b]

[color=#000000]*end flashback*[/color]

[color=#4b0082]"Didn't you hear? I want you to kill me, destroy me, end me and my pitiful excuse for a life." [/color][color=#000000]Back in reality, Yuki's plan has already advanced to it's last step[/color][color=#4B0082]. [/color][color=#000000]Even though it didn't go fully according to plan, -No.44 was knocked unconscious after Drake's previous attack- Yuki still have to die in order for No.44 to be gone forever. [/color]

[color=#000000][b]Dr. Faker[/b][/color]

[color=#800000]"I'd be insane to believe [i]any[/i] of this..."[/color][color=#000000] after saying this, Faker turned his attention back to his PDA, which, after another minute of fine-tuning, had been re-calibrated so it wouldn't detect the energy radiating of the No. 91 from the [i]alternate[/i] reality, and yet [i]probably[/i] still detect the one that was actually on its database. After that, he returned to the topic at hand.[/color]

[color=#800000]"Alright, let's just say... for the sake argument, that everything you just told me is true,"[/color][color=#000000] he suggested, [/color][color=#800000]"And that this Solomon Key is even [i]remotely[/i] possible to find in this reality. How do you suppose I'd know I've found it?"[/color]

[color=#000000][b]Akuma Chishio[/b][/color]

[color=#4b0082]"Hmph, typical,"[/color][color=#000000] Akuma shrugged as she said this, [/color][color=#4b0082]"Oh well, I'll just have one of my Des Frogs attack your freshly summoned Gigo-Byte, and the other two attack... oh I don't know, probably those two innermost tokens will do."[/color]

[color=#000000]The Des Frogs jumped into the air and dove back down, headbutting their targets with enough force that they exploded into pixels the minute they made impact with the concrete beneath their feet.[/color]

[color=#4b0082]"I'll end with two face-downs,"[/color][color=#000000] Akuma declared, [/color][color=#4B0082]"Your move again,"[/color]

Thomas was, at this point, extremely pissed. [b]"For the love of god people, is it that hard to answer a simple question?! Really..." [/b]Then he whipped around suddenly from watching the duel as he heard something happening with Leon and the knight guy. He watched the knight attack, Leon's voice change to Shark Drake's, and him defeat the other man. Then the defeated person asked to be killed. And Shark Drake would be perfectly willing to do that. [b]"No!" [/b]Thomas suddenly raced towards the pair. [i]"But what can I do? I can't stop Shark Drake with force. He'll just blast me, and I'd be hurting Leon anyway. So that means the only way is..." [/i] As he ran, he pulled a D-Chain out of his pocket, and threw it at Leon. [b]"Shark Drake! Duel me!" [/b]The chain latched onto Leon's wrist.

((That seems like GMing, I know. Feel free to dodge the Chain, if you really want.))

[AkatsukiPride!]

Blazey was crying. She followed Neo as close as she was willing to go to the fight, but stopped close by. She saw Neo latch a D-Chain onto Leon/Drake. "Neo! I...I...I don't know...If that's the best idea..." He voice was muffled by the crying. "Bu...bu...but...but do what you need to do..." She knew that Neo had once housed 32 himself. She knew that he was the best equipped to duel him. She had seen his skill. But she didn't want Drake to eat his soul or anything. Blazey would give her life to save Neo. He didn't deserve to die. "Neo..." she said. In the back of her mind, she knew she couldn't do anything herself. She was scared. She needed Neo or Mikey to protect her. "Where is Mickey..." she said.

[i]I feel him close. But...he seems...different. [/i]


Nearby, Mikey was staggering in the direction he was unwillingly forced to walk. "Why me...why?" he was mumbling. His body ached and his eyes burned. "Why...why?"

[i][color=#000080]I can't stand to see Mikey like this.[/color][/i]
[i][color=#ff0000]You know what we need to do.[/color][/i]
[i][color=#4b0082]As unwilling as I am to do it, yes, I do[/color][/i]
[i][color=#8b4513]This should be fun. And dangerous. For all we know, the five of us my die![/color][/i]

[宇佐見 蓮子@C94]

[color=#000000]Yuki was shocked when a stranger suddenly latched a d-chain to Leon's wrist. Not only did he interrupt his plans, but he also threatened the safety of some people here, since No.44 would be enraged after almost being killed like that. [/color][color=#000080]"Listen, superhero-like guy I've never met before! This is strictly between me and Leon! You have nothing to do with this!" [/color][color=#000000]Yuki moved in quickly and grabbed the middle of the d-chain. [/color][color=#000080]"I understand that you want to duel him, but please. Kill me first. If not, you all might be brutally killed once No.44 regains consciousness... I don't want to endanger the lives of more people, so please. Kill me here, now." [/color][color=#000000]Yuki looked towards Neo with eyes of a person that has nothing else to live for in this world, eyes full of despair and sadness. [/color]

[Brinolovania]

Thomas smiled at Blazey. [b]"Hey, don't worry. I'm the hero, remember? That's the number one rule of superhero comics- the hero never dies. I'll kick this Number's butt into next week. Or maybe two weeks from now actually..."[/b] He trailed off as Yuki addressed him. He swallowed as he looked into his eyes. [b]"You...it really seems that you do want to die. I could kill you easily, break your neck with one hand. But you know what? I'm not going to. If...if the Number really does try to kill us, we'll try to find another way to deal with it. I mean, there are two other insane Numbers trying to kill people already, one more won't make THAT big of a difference. However, if there really is no other way to kill 44...I'll be the one to go to that last resort. I think there must be some way to beat him though. After all, at their hearts, Numbers are just cards. And there's plenty of ways to beat those."[/b]

[AkatsukiPride!]

Blazey managed a weak smile. [i]The hero never dies, [/i]she thought. She thought about her own hero deck. They hardly failed her. After seeing them talk to her, she would believe anything. Anything. As long as she had hope in Neo, she would manage. As long as she a hope, no matter how small of a ray that hope was. Hearing Neo mention superhero comics brought something else to her attention: Another rule of superheroes. Don't they always get the girl? Blazey chuckled to herself. She cleared her through and spoke up. "I...I'm sure death isn't the only way out of this. If...If that Number wakes up, we won't let it do any harm. I think my brother is on his way. He could supply [i]some[/i] help. He may not have a Number, but he's one hell of a duelist." Blazey's eyes widened as she hear a sizzling sound come from behind her. She turned her head slowly and saw the back wall was glowing. The wall exploded into a storm of splinters, which were stopped midair by some invisible force, and were then dropped to the ground. A figure walked into the room.

"What was that about not having a Number?" Mikey said. He smiled. "What I miss?"

*Only seconds beforehand*

[color=#000080][i]Ready?[/i][/color]
[i][color=#ff0000]Yes. How about you?[/color][/i]
[color=#000080][i]Oh, I'm ready![/i][/color]
[i][color=#800080]Lets just get this over with.[/color][/i]
[i][color=#8b4513]As long as you idiots know we could die by doing this, I'm ready.[/color][/i]
[i][b][color=#800000]You are smart. I am not evil, but Mikey may need your powers so I don't destroy his body. [/color][/b][/i]
[i][color=#8b4513]No one asked for your opinion, doucheface![/color][/i]
[i][color=#ff0000]Leave him alone, Dogma.[/color][/i]
[i][color=#8b4513]Whatever.[/color][/i]

Mikey was now crouching, holding his head in pain. He was groveling towards wherever it was he was going, knowing that this pain was worse than hell.

[color=#800000][b][i]Michel Blaze! Do wish for the power to protect those who you love?[/i][/b][/color]
[i]What...what the heck are to talking about?[/i]
[color=#800000][b][i]My power. I am your friend. [/i][/b][/color]
[i]Will it make this pain stop?[/i]
[i][b][color=#800000]Usually, maybe. But since you have a very kind group of protectors, yes. They have opted to do this with me.[/color][/b][/i]
[i]Then do it! Whatever this is! MAKE IT STOP! MAKE THE PAIN STOP![/i]
[i][b][color=#800000]Gladly! [/color][/b][/i]

Mikey pushed himself up a bit, and his vision flared again. "Whats going to...ARGH!" As Mikey opened his eyes, he saw that everything around him had become a blue vortex. Around him stood Ocean, Heat, Plasma, and Dogma. They moved closer to him, but were pulled away and turned into orange spirits. They swirled around Mikey before moving towards him and flew down his mouth. Mikey's eyes glowed a rainbow of colors and he screamed in pain as this all happened. The Number 75 burned on his forehead. As the spirits disappeared into Mikey, his eyes settled, but were now a kaleidoscope of colors. He stood up and felt no pain anymore. The vortex disappeared, and he looked off in the direction of the warehouse. "That way," He said. "[color=#000080]Yep, that would be the way.[/color]" Mikey's voice changed to that of Ocean's. Mikey's eyes widened. Not everyday something like that happens. "So, we all live in one body?" Mikey asked himself. "[color=#8b4513]What gave that away? [/color][color=#800080]Shut up Dogma. Mikey, your body is flimsy and weak. But you have our powers, so I guess you can will it to not be weak and flimsy. [/color][color=#ff0000]Plasma speaks the truth." [/color]Mikey laughed. This would take some getting used to. "What happened to that Number?" He asked. "[color=#ff0000]He fused with us as well. He's quiet though. [/color][b][color=#800000]Not that quiet. Mikey, lets move. We need to protect your friends and sister." [/color][/b]The image of the inside of the warehouse flashed before Mikey's eyes, and he nodded, running off.

*Now*

Mikey walked slowly into the room. "Hey everybody. [color=#000080]Sup. [/color][color=#ff0000]Greetings, humans. [/color][color=#800080]I don't know any of you. [/color][color=#8b4513]I don't need to say anything. [/color][b][color=#800000]Boo.[/color][/b]" Mikey's voice scrolled through the voices of his heroes and his new Number. Now that the six of them were sharing a body, this could get confusing.

"So," Mikey asked again. "[color=#000080]Who [/color][color=#ff0000]wants [/color][color=#800080]to [/color][color=#8b4513]tell [/color]us [color=#800000][b]whats [/b][/color][color=#000080]u[/color][color=#ff0000]p[/color][color=#800080]?[/color]" Mikey, the heroes, and his Number spoke with all six of their voices at once when he said this.

[Durandamon]

Leon realized that he was now in control of his body, but Drake's power was still there. -[color=#800080]"Kill...you? Yuki I can't...I can't kill a human being! I won't...ah!"[/color] - Leon's right hand was suddenly grabbed by a chain making him drop his left sword, and he saw it was pulled by Neo. - [color=#800080]"Neo!? No...we can't duel you..."[/color]

[u][i]"Leon."[/i][/u]
[color=#800080][i]"It's you again...what do you want now!?"[/i][/color]
[u][i]"Please, wait. This is a difficult situation. And right now we need to cooperate."[/i][/u]
[color=#800080][i]"...you have a second."[/i][/color]
[u][i]"You want to save Amber's soul from Bacterian, and all of your friends's lives. I want power, the power from Bacterian."[/i][/u]
[color=#800080][i]"You want me to snatch Bacterian for you?"[/i][/color]
[color=#40e0d0][i]"Leon don't listen to him!"[/i][/color]
[u][i]"Please, let's form a truce. We'll both get what we want."[/i][/u]
[color=#800080][i]"Sorry Sonya...but I want to save Amber."[/i][/color]
[i][u]"Don't worry, I'll let you use my power to its full potential."[/u][/i]

[color=#800080]"Understood. Yuki, I'm sorry..."[/color] - Leon extended his right, free arm, and with his right sword he shot another wave of hellfire, this time shaped like a sphere, that impacted on Yuki's chest, throwing him off the black fire circle ((If he doesn't dodge, of course)). The attack was so strong that it also backfired, shooting Leon's right sword into the air, which landed at Mikey's feet. He then pulled the chain that held his left arm, hoping to drag Neo into the circle with him. - [color=#800080]"If that's what you want..."[/color] - instead of his regular duel disk, a white and purple one materialized on his arm, shaped like a shark's fin. His right eye turned red, and engaged itself in Enhaced Reality - [color=#800080]"You start, bro. I don't want this to last longer than needed, so 6000 should do it."[/color]

[color=#800080][i]"Do you promise not to hurt my friends?"[/i][/color]
[u][i]"If you help me get closer to Seth's Number, I'll even protect them too."[/i][/u]

[Brinolovania]

Thomas gasped as Leon blasted Yuki [b]"H-hey! Is he alright?!" [/b]He saw Mikey enter, and heard him speaking very...oddly, but ignored it to focus on his own situation. He was about to check on Yuki, when Leon yanked the chain. Unprepared, he was pulled into the circle of fire. [b]"Ack! Well, I suppose this IS what I wanted anyway...Leon, Shark Drake, both, whoever you are, BRING IT THE HELL ON!"[/b] As he yelled the end of his sentence, he went through his duel mode transformation, and was already drawing his sixth card when the light cleared. [b]"Leon, my deck isn't the same as when I last dueled you. I think it's stronger...and maybe I am too. I set one monster face down, with a backrow behind it. That's all I'm gonna do...what've you got?"[/b]

Greg grunted as his monsters were destroyed, their shattered pieces showering over him momentarily before fading. Then, Greg drew his card, and grinned.
"I Normal Summon Poki Draco," he began. "It's effect lets me add another one from my deck to my hand." A small, orange, chubby dragon holding a small green egg materialized next to a Sheep Token and sat down, breathing a puff of flame from it's mouth.

[b](Dragon-type / FIRE / Effect / Level 3 / ATK 200 / DEF 100) [/b]

Poki Draco turned it's head at Greg and grinned.
[color=#ff0000]Been a long time, man! [/color]The voice of the dragon piped in Greg's mind. He nodded in response.
[i]Missed you, too. [/i]He replied.

"Then I activate Polymerization," Greg continued. "Fusing the Poki Draco on my field with the one in my hand to Fusion Summon Poki Poki Dragoon!" A shimmering portal appeared, which two Poki Dracos jumped into. The portal then widened, and out walked a large four-legged, scaled orange dragon with green eyes and a spiked tail. It opened it's mouth, revealing multiple rows of sharp teeth and shooting out a blast of blue fire with an ear-splitting roar. With each step the monster took as it continued to step out of the portal, the ground shook.

[/spoiler]

"I'll use my Dragoon's first effect: When it's Fusion Summoned, I can Special Summon 2 Level 3 or below monsters with the same name from my deck or hand. From my deck, I Special Summon 2 Speed Warriors!" Poki Poki Dragoon opened it's wings, and under them two multi-colored balls of light appeared, which morphed into two robotic warriors.

[b](Warrior-type / WIND / Effect / Level 2 / ATK 900 / DEF 400) [/b]

Greg chuckled. "This is the fun part. With my Dragoon's other effect, I can Tribute one face-up Level 3 or lower monster I control to destroy one monster on the field. I have four, and I'll Tribute my two remaining Sheep Tokens and one of my Speed Warriors to destroy all of your Des Frogs." The Dragoon flapped it's wings, and the Sheep Tokens and one Speed Warrior were sent flying at Akuma's frogs, destroying all of the monsters involved in a cascade of pixels.
"Unfortunately," Greg continued. "Poki Poki Dragoon cannot attack the turn I activate it's effect, but on the turn it's Summoned, my Speed Warrior's Attack is doubled!" The remaining Speed Warrior became lit with blue fire, and it's visor turned red.

[b](Speed Warrior ATK 900 -> 1800)[/b]

Greg pointed at Akuma. "Attack her directly! Sonic Edge!" Speed Warrior ran at Akuma before jumping up and attempting a drop kick.

[color=#4b0082]"Thank... You...." [/color][color=#000000]Yuki was blown away to the wall of the warehouse after being shot by Leon. The shot itself wasn't so damaging, but it managed to reopen a large wound on Yuki's chest he got during a nasty encounter with the cops several years ago. [/color]With blood quickly flowing out of his chest, Yuki's vision started to blur, and even breathing became a major pain. [color=#4b0082][i]"He came back... Amber could now be at peace... That's all I need in order to die happy.... Good job, Leon... You killed two numbers... I just hope... That bacterian guy... Doesn't hurt Amber much more than this..." [/i][/color][color=#000000]As his consciousness began to fade, Yuki suddenly remembered the times he had as a child, playing with Fubuki everyday and night, as well as his promise to her, a promise he swore he will never break. [/color][color=#4b0082][i]"I'm sorry... Fubuki... I couldn't... Fulfill our promise... But I will make it up to you... If you did what... No.51 told you to..." [/i][/color][color=#000000]Before his consciousness faded altogether, Yuki looked towards Leon who is now dueling Neo. [/color][color=#4b0082]"Leon... If you would, please hear my last wish... Please protect Amber at any cost... And tell her... I... Love.... Her...." [/color][color=#000000]After saying so, Yuki took his last breath and his heart stopped beating forever. [/color][color=#000000][b]"NOOO!!! HOW DARE YOU!! HOW DARE YOU KILL ME!!! YOU.... WILL ALL PAY FOR THIIIIIIIIIIIS!!!" [/b][/color][color=#000000]A thick purple smoke emerged from Yuki's corpse. The smoke then took the form of No.44, which soon disappeared to nothingness, completing Yuki's plan.[/color]

[color=#000000]*meanwhile*[/color]

[color=#ee82ee]"I can't tell you the exact reason I want to go to the hospital, but if you really wanna know, then it's because I'm going to see my brother there." [/color][color=#000000]Fubuki replied to Gustavo's question. [/color][color=#ee82ee]"Also, in case you're wondering, I don't want to duel you. I'm in a hurry, so yeah. I can't duel you." [/color][color=#000000]After saying so, Fubuki felt a great pain on her chest out of nowhere, as if it was a bad premonition. [/color][color=#ee82ee]"Ouch! What the hell just happened... And why do I feel that something is rather off..."[/color]
[b][i][color=#FFD700]"So it did work... Great job, Yuki."[/color][/i][/b]

[Kohakuchan19]

Amber struggled to get back on her feet after Bacterian's last attack, as she struggled, Bacterian spoke to the others.

[color=#ff0000][b]"You want answers do you...? Well then... I will give you an answer...!" [/b][/color]Then all of the sudden everyone who was in the middle of a duel started to sink slowly for every LP they had lost up to that point, including Amber. [color=#ff0000]"[b]I am Bacterian.. Leader of the Bacterian Empire... And You have all foolishly entered into an affair that has little to no concern to you.. and now those who dare to duel, will now literally be fighting for their lives!"[/b][/color]

[b]"Aaah! What the hell...?"[/b]

[b][color=#ff0000]"The only way you will all survive for sure, is if Amber can manage to defeat me in a duel before any of your duels come to an end!"[/color][/b]

[b]"Grr.... Bacterian...!"[/b]

[b][color=#ff0000]"Better hurry Amber.. HAHAHA!!!"[/color][/b]

Then Amber looked over to Yuki as he was blasted by Leon's Attack, She was concerned for him as well, then she saw all the blood, and knew there was nothing she could do for him.. even if she wasn't stuck. Wait.. SHE WAS STUCK!! Which meant she would have no chance of dodging any flying metal that may come hurdling her way... But.. She didn't worry about it. She heard Yuki speak his final words, and a tear came to her eye... Not only had she misunderstood him... But the reality was that they could have been good friends if things had been different...

[b]"... Yuki... I won't let any of it be in vain..." [/b]Amber looked up to Bacterian, and then at Seth who was now unconscious. [b]"Bacterian... I'm you aren't getting away with this nonsense... DRAW!"[/b]

With a totally new outlook on the duel, Amber drew her card and looked at it.. [i]"Alright... This will definitely [/i]help turn things around!"

[b]"First I'll Set one monster face-Down on the Field, then switch my Cyber Dragon to Defense, and I'll [/b][b]End my turn."[/b]

Haruto was surprised when the whole area began to change he never knew that numbers could be that powerful to actually change the area to this degree seemed impossible, Haruto drew his card and looked at it with a sigh.

Meanwhile Dorian looked on in slight bemusement at this fluster cluck of a warehouse. As he looks and watches the dark magus get killed and the costumed fool proceed to take turns at playing a card game this warehouse has become a little shop of horrors. At the same time he is somewhat interested in the little child possessed by distinctively different voices mainly because the majority of those voices do not feel like Numbers. Dorian in his hiding is approached by a shadowy figure who walks as if they are somewhat zombified and it reveals that they must be a drone which was another odd accurance sense he thought there were only 3. But what was more unfortunate is that the drone challenged him to a duel and if he were to go through with it then His hiding place would be ruined. That does beg the question in a room filled with faces can you really hide? Shaking that thought Dorian out on his duel disk and D-Gazer without actually looking at his opponent to make sure he did not miss an important part of either matches going on. However when the drone said duel and drew his cards Dorian gave the drone a quick glare one that you give to an annoying insect before you killed it. A second later the drone fell to the ground lifeless and the back of his shirt slightly fried with the drone unable to continue Dorian was the winner. Dorian quickly went through the collapsed boys pockets and pulled out a heart piece for himself though this was simple reflex nothing mattered other than monster matches going on.


Dorian returns to his hiding space.

[color=#ff0000][b]"Hm... You think that is going to save you? Well then... Let's FIND OUT!" [/b][/color]Bacterian Drew his card but instead of playing anything, Bacterian instead went directly for the attack on the face-down card himself.

[b]"NOT SO FAST!! You've activated my Trap Card! Mirror Force!"[/b]
[b][color=#ff0000]"WHAT!? NO!!!" [/color][/b]

The Attack was suddenly reflect back to Bacterian's side of the field, and laid waste to his monster field. A could of smoke was left behind.. but as soon as the smoke cleard.. Bacterian was still on the field.

[b]"WHAT!?"[/b]

[b][color=#ff0000]"Hahahahaha! Did you think you were the only one who used SAFE ZONE!? Foolish girl!"[/color][/b]

Bacterian's Face-Down card was in face a Safe Zone, and he used it on himself, which meant that Amber could not target him with effects.

[b]"Darn..."[/b]

Amber had a grin on her face. Now all she had to do to win was get rid of that Safe Zone... She drew her card and immediately started her turn All she needed was one card to be successful... And she drew it!

[b]"Alright Bacterian... It's time to turn the tables! I flip my face-down to reveal my DUCKER Cannon! It has a flip effect that allows me to special summon any Lv 4 monster from my grave yard! And I choose Victory Viper XX03! Then I will summon from my hand another Victory Viper!"[/b]

Two Victory Vipers flew into the scene and hovered over Amber's head.

[b]"And now... Prepair yourself Bacterian... For the card I JUST drew.. POWER CAPSULE!! and you know what THAT means...."[/b]

[color=#ff0000][b]"What!? NO!!! Not that!"[/b][/color]

[b]"You guessed it... I'm going to use it to activate one of my Victory Viper's abilities! To destroy a face-up Spell or Trap Card on the field! and I choose... YOUR Safe Zone!"[/b]

The Victory Viper on the left then swooped down and blasted the Trap Card, allowing Safe Zone to resolve it's final effect! Destroying the card attached to it.

[b]"Seth! Are you alright?"[/b]

[color=#000080]"I.. I think so-- AAH!!!" [/color] Seth held his head as if he was trying to fight Bacterian from taking over again.

The two Victory Vipers turned into gold orbs of light as the mighty Opossum King was summoned. He walked out from a shining portal, with his glorious armor and flowing cape. Her drew his sword and pointed it to Seth, who he knew was still possessed.

[Des ＨＥＲＯ]

James regained consciousness as he immediately looked at his heart in his pocket. Much to his surprise, Omega didn’t take any of his heart pieces so he still has four. James then looked at his extra deck to be relieved that his Numbers still remained. [i][color=#daa520]‘How could this be?’[/color][/i] James wondered confused as he turned his attention towards the warehouse that he knew Omega targeted. Despite being wounded, James still ran towards the warehouse in pursuit of answers.


As James sprinted through the outskirts of the warehouse, he encountered Omega still wearing his black cape robe that shrouded him away from everyone. [color=#DAA520][b]“You told me the Numbers were evil!” [/b][/color]James shouted with rage as the man he has formerly known turned around startled. [b][color=#daa520]“Have you all this time been lying to me?”[/color][/b]

[b]“At everyone’s perspectives, Numbers are evil,”[/b] Omega explained remaining calm and confident as ever as he replied vaguely to James. [b]“But as a Number Hunter, you make choices to collect as much Numbers as possible. Be their friends or be their foes to your Numbers or competition. Co-operate with me and you will achieve your goal…Answers,”[/b]

[color=#daa520][b]“Ok,” [/b][/color]James replied reluctantly.

[b]“Good, now several Number Holders and possibly other Number Hunters lies in the warehouse,”[/b] Omega informed. [b]“I want you to find out about them and give me as much information about them for me to begin collecting Numbers,”[/b] he ordered as James submitted and decided to walk onwards to the nearby warehouse. Omega sneered before pressing an button on his metal hand. He vanished into thin air.


James entered the warehouse and analysed his surroundings. His attention centred the duel between the boy only a couple of years older than him that he instantly recognized as Seth and the girl, he didn’t know but he assumed she was the one Seth has been talking about (Amber) because he just saw her Number return Seth’s infamous Number 89 that he realized was the same as near the end of his duel against Seth. [color=#daa520][i]‘His deck is once again crippled should I say, the pieces are fitting together,’[/i][/color] Somewhere in his mind, James felt like he might have accidentally saw the girl duel somewhere close before the Tournament actually had been announced to start but he couldn’t put his mind to it.

He approached some of the people inside the warehouse watching the duel (Anyone…). [color=#daa520][b]“Does anyone know what is happening here?”[/b][/color] James asked them weakly. He knew that the only reason that he knew all this information because he has cropped up hidden at the right place at the right time. [color=#daa520][i]'Excellent, now this entire Seth going after mystery girl hindrance shall soon be over. But can't an Number like Number 89 passing on make things worse. The outcome of this duel can be a bit more significant for every minority of Number Hunters if they are unable to resist the powers of Number 89...Interesting,'[/i][/color]

Thomas smiled a bit. [b]"Well, it's good that you are Leon and not Drake. And as for taking him with you...I guess you might have to. I mean, what are we gonna do with him after this? I know that destroying a Number isn't easy..."[/b] Then he stopped talking, and allowed his set Vision Hero Poisoner to be destroyed.[b] "Although, this duel is kind of pointless now. I mainly started it to kick out Drake and save Yuki, and the latter I've already failed at. Even if I can't do any of that though...I still want a rematch with you. This isn't really the proper scene for it though..." [/b]He looked around at Amber and Seth fighting. [b]"...Yeah, totally the wrong place. But whatever...draw! Right then...I summon Vision Hero Vyon, and I use it's effect to send Vision Hero Increase to the graveyard! I don't have anything else to do...so go ahead."[/b]

I promise you, as long as I'm alive, nothing bad will happen to Amber. You may rest in peace now..."[/color] - Leon looked back up at Thomas -[color=#800080] "This is so not the time and place for it, but we can end this soon and go back to help the others. What's happening between Blazey and you? If you don't mind me asking."[/color] - he drew a card, starting his turn (5 cards in hand) - [color=#800080]"Since it's my Standby Phase, I should take damage from Shadowknight, but Demon's Roar negates the cost. Now it's time for a Normal Summon...come forth, highlord of Hell! Terrorking Archfiend!

[color=#800080]"Attack, Terrorking! Devastation!"[/color] - The king of Archfiends walked up to Vyon, and with a single swing of his blade, he cut it in two. - [color=#800080]"And I'll just wait, since I know what V-Heroes can do."[/color]
