"Now," Ker said "I detetch another unit to attack directly." Said in calm yet scary tone.
"But he had already used it on me!"
"D King Ant can use it however with no limitations."
And with that said, it ate the remaining unit and jumped in sky.
"This time I attack you sharp tone." He pointed at Yuto.
"So you want to finish it huh?"
"Can't let it run forever. Go ant bite!"
And the ant jumped to Yuto.
Ker: "Huh? What is that set card he didn't use it? Was it not to counter me?"
"YUTO!"
"I... am okay."
Yuto lp 1000
A light voice came as Yuto stand up from ground.
He had thrown little far away in different direction than Nate.
And his head clashed to a container and heavy, metal sound came.
"Still want to fight? It's laughable."
"Of course no matter what happens to me no matter what may happen to me I won't stop! Nothing can stop my phantom soul!"
"Then do something else."
"But you don't have cards left in your hand and no overly unit either on king ant." Nate said in little low voice.
"Are you sure." Ker chuckled with grim smile.
"I mean... You don't have any." It take Nate's courage.
The air around Ker now made him more creepy.
"Don't worry." Ker said "as long as card exists everything can happen. Haha."
As he said then Yuto felt shiver in his spine.
"I feel something extraordinary."
"Well then, when D King Ant don't have any overly unit and I have the "distructo force" in my graveyard or hand or field I can attach it to him!"
And a hole created on ground and from it a lightning like flash came and a shiny ball was flying around the ant beast.
"So convenie— I mean how is this possible? It's like everything is going on your favour." Nate said
Yuto firmly watching with his still fresh injures.
"Because we control our destiny after all. Now I detetch the overly and i attack this naive kid!"
And the ant made a big jump again.
"I will have you crush slowly so let the weakling die first."
"Oh no!" Nate paniced
"Hahahahaha"
"Is that all?" Ker muttered
And Yuto's still blazing eyes on the beast.
"I activate my trap card from graveyard! Phantom knights of steel knight. I had destroyed it by break sword's effect. When direct attack happens I can special summon from graveyard in monster form and naget the attack and more I can make a monster gain 500 atk. I choose Phantom knights of break sword!"
Atk
3500
He said his fist on white man.
And Yuto saved Nate.
"What!"
All three including Nate confused.
"Why did you didn't used it before?" Ker definitely confused.
"Yeah you could had saved yourself!" Nate paniced
"Because I don't want to." Yuto said voice that same heavy voice and tone too.
""?""
"Because I don't deserve it."
His eyes still fixed on duel but his vision was somewhere else.
"What bullshit is this supposed to mean? are you just idiot!"
"It's not bullshit. It's my way to say."
""?""
Ler looked closely at Yuto.
"What are you talking about Yuto?"
Yuto looked like his one leg will lose strength but yet he stood firm.
"It was a reminder that I shouldn't forget the pain and suffering we have got we can't let go of it or we will forget the lessons and things it taught us."
"?" Ker obviously thinks, is this guy out of his mind?
"I couldn't say it to her." His palm on his chest "I couldn't say I don't regret what i did in invasion but I did regret but I don't regret the things I have done the changes I have gone through if I just have saved myself as a coward than I couldn't call my self a rebellion."
"""!!!"""
"No matter what happens I will stay true to myself!"
He let his eyes up to Ker.
"My soul of rebellion won't dissappear! I will fight to end! No matter if I lose. No matter how much injuried I got. I WILL REBEL AGAINST ALL MY ENEMIES!"
"""!!!"""
Hearing this even Ker and Ler got shears. Just looking at the man barley able to stand is saying with such blaze of soul.
Their legs felt like they are shaking, their hands felt like they are losen up, they couldn't focus their eyes on his eyes straight.
Without a doubt they felt fear of him.
"I... I end my turn."
"My turn! I set my card and summon one more digi sword." Nate said
And looked at Yuto as if to give a hint but couldn't speak.
"My turn! I draw! From my field! The steel knight is level 4 monster and digi sword too I take these two And made overly!"
He lift his right hand on sky as he spoke, on ground a brilliant galaxy was created, shining and those two became golden lighting and gone in that endless pit.
"[Made all my enemies fear! Rebel against everyone and burn the world with the fire of rebellion! Come Rank 4 Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon!]"
As he said the dragon, most loyal to him the loyal rebellion of his team. And partner came. With roaring with power with dark lightning falling on ground. As if to resonate with his partner.
"It has finally come the dragon that rebelled against world, the dragon that bows to no one." Ler said looking at that figure as dragon breath heavy looking at his opponent.
"Now it is time huh?" Ker said "Now what will you do?"
"I detetch the overly unit from dark rebellion and half your attack and the attack will go to dark rebellion!"
D King Ant
Atk
3000 –> 1500
Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon
Atk
2500 –> 4000
"Amazing!" Ker smudged
"Bastard is enjoying this?" Ler dazed
"Now I attack you directly!"
And with a dark lightning going through it's lower jaw's sword it go with piercing ground.
"I activate flame ant's effect from graveyard I banish all ant monsters and made it overly unit."
Nate: "Seriously!"
"Now I just detetch the overly unit negate distruction."
"I won't let that happen! From my graveyard I banishe digi sword as I have detetched it first, I banish it and I can negate the activation of a card from graveyard!"
As Yuto said Nate felt happy he used his card.
"Now! Dark Rebellion XYZ Dragon! Mauling Mandible Discharge!"
"Good grief." Ker still carefree
"What is with You!" Ler shouted
"Nothing. It's just fun seeing kids rebel." He said in calm voice as the dragon approached that gigantic Ant and tear it apart with it's jaw's sword and dark lightning.
White man lp 0
And blast happened and Ker was thrown away. but in fast speed Ler grabbed him and disappeared both.
# At a certain tower
"Never thought I will see heavenly dragon of rebellion with loyalty for someone." Ker muttered
"You knew what will happen yet you fought and more you used that card without permission upper watchers are gonna get on you."
"I know."
"Just to tell you I am not gonna take part in it."
"Running away huh?"
"Kind of and the idea that you think our superiors will let us join the "so called" heartland cup to kidnap that girl again work?"
"It have to no matter how you look at it they have no reason to decline us."
"No. Seeing your duel and lose they must had changed their opinion on us."
"You too?"
Both now at top of tower.
"They will just brag me alongside yoi for defeat and as excuse throw me away."
"You saying it makes it more realistic."
"It is." Ler finished
And at the same moment a big shadow appeared covering their's.
Broad back, back bended in front side as if weight on it. And legs too, shorter than hands and hands long.
"Having fun? Runaways. Heh."
"You what are you doing here?"
"You two probably had thought that the underwoker didn't need to take with right? Well guess that commander Hel had more mission for me than you two superiors."
No eyes yet glaze at those two.
No mouth yet smirk in words comes.
"You should be greatful we haven't done anything yet."
"What can you two do anyway? I have commander Hel's hand on me, protecting me."
Both didn't react but they must had wanted to grit hands.
"How pitiful. Well I was thinking to take part too in that cup so let's help eachother."
"You seriously think we need your help?"
'Well probably. And superiors will be angry if we don't get results and I am officially here so technically I am in charge of here.' So he wanted to say. But saying now will anger them more.
"I can't do it without you too."
"Of course the one who can't kill anyone and only acts can't do anything alone after all."
Ker said with smirking eyes.
Ler inspecting Ĺrakaoa.
"Well thank you."
# Lulu's And Shun's House
"I shouldn't come with you." Nate said
"Wh– i see."
"Yeah with my condition it is already suspicious going as stranger and with their daughter unconscious."
Nate said clearing his shirt from dust.
"And you too but with you I don't think they will get suspicious." Nate said
Yuto didn't say anything for few seconds but then he said "Fine but go to hospital first."
"I could say same to you though." Go gone with sparkling teeths showing.
Nate leave from the front gates of Lulu's and Shun's house.
Thinking he had to help at least this much.
And Yuto go to the house, opened the get and while Lulu in his arms, carrying her.
As her eyes closed.
He opened the door.
"Excuse me. It's me Yuto. Auntie, Uncle."
As he said Lulu's mom got out of kitchen with stll her apron.
And Lulu's father in living room.
And her mom helped to let Lulu got to her bed and covering with blankets slept with peace.
And Yuto still didn't knew what to say. He know that she is okay but just unconscious as Nate said. (Heart to Nate)
But how will he explain his condition. As his cloths were messed up and there were injures and scratches.
And his legs feel better now than before but it isn't completely healed yet and not to mention how Yuto was gonna explain his condition and Lulu.
And in living room with her parents.
"I had started fight with seniors and then she tried to end it but she was then unconscious by a sudden hit by a punch by one."
"I see it must had been hard." Her mom said
"Thank God you were there Yuto." Her dad said.
"Lulu doesn't seem to have any injures so she should be okay." Her mom said
"She is strong girl after all." Her dad said
Both looked a bit older Lulu's dad looked like Shun but older and her mom also long hair but eyes seem to show age.
And technically Yuto didn't lied he had gotten into fight, in a way Lulu was involved and but the way he said it and her parents believed.
They had trust in Yuto. Yuto felt they would believe but he felt more horrible to tell lie to her parents involving their daughter.
But he couldn't just say she was to be kidnapped and Yuto himself didn't knew reason or why doing it and nor those two man so he couldn't even go to police.
"You should take care of yourself first Yuto. Have some treatment first." Dad said
And her mom got up from the sofa.
"We have first-aid kit here so don't worry and your injures should be healed by time."
"By the way—"
Her mom turned.
Mom: "We know you won't get into a fight nor start one."
Dad: "It's okay if you don't want to tell. You must have important reason if you are not telling. But you don't have to worry about us we believe in you And Lulu she, is strong girl and we believe in her."
Hearing them Yuto felt begging them to stop not to say more he couldn't endure it.
"No. It was all my fault that I couldn't do anything."
Yuto sitting on single sited sofa his hands on his knees and head down, not wanting to look face to face.
"Everything happened as I was beside her but I couldn't protect her."
His hands started to tighten on his knees.
"Just like last time in invasion, even when I was just near I couldn't protect her and she got taken away. And now it is same I wasn't good enough no I am not good enough. I haven't learned anything from that."
He grited his teeths as they said.
"Don't worry Yuto it's wasn't your fault."
"It was a bad unfortunate event but everything is okay now. Everyone is smiling together and you two are also one of them so don't take burden on yourself."
He felt like tear will fall out of relive but it didn't.
"No. I am sorry"
He said meeting eye to eye with them
"But I can't just sit or do nothing. I was naive that I felt everything is okay but unfortunate things are bound to happen so I can't do nothing."
His eyes represented something.
"My flames haven't burnout yet and I still have ways to go and to do something. I won't let a next time come. And if unfortunately it comes than I will Protect Lulu.
As he said his eyes tell the burning flames of his rebellion.
And after saying it.
"Yuto. I feel like your flames have not burned to full yet either." Her dad said smiling.
"We know you can do it." Both said smiling.
"By the way Yuto." Her mom said
"?"
It took Yuto's focus.
"Lulu was quite happy when you had become same as before, kind and happy. So seeing you in such bad boy way I don't know how Lulu will react."
After hearing this and realizing what he have said in front of her parents.
"Oh, I remember when she first met Yuto then she started to smile more happy and going outside. With refreshed smile. But Yuto is Yuto." Dad said
"Yeah. But we shouldn't let things like these think on our own without Lulu. Yuto it's been quite a while so will you have dinner with us tonight Lulu will also be happy when she wakes up." Her mom said with smile.
"Well..."
Now Yuto wanted to go home realizing his words.
"Actually,"
He than calmed down and said.
"Can I talk with Lulu alone?"
"But she—" as her dad was gonna say her mom interrupt.
"Don't worry you just want to tell her something without her knowing right."
Yuto noded with shaking his head upside to down.
"Then take your time. I will ready first-aid kit for you. And start making dinner."
Thinking about his parents Yuto had to go home early but he thought to stay a bit.
And as he go upstairs and opened Lulu's room's door. She was on her bed, sleeping and without anger or fear.
"Don't worry Lulu. I won't make you worry. I will become more strong."
She didn't flinched nor moved as she was unconscious, sleeping but who knows if she is hearing it or not it's question.
"I am still weak but I will become more strong. And I don't know if I will be same as I am but I will still do things what I should do."
He said still looking at Lulu.
"I may change or may not but you will be same for me. Your words have always gave me power Lulu. They always made me stand up from any battle, not letting my will lose."
And for a moment Yuto's eyes seem soft with and soft smile.
"So don't worry about me and thinking I will do something reckless again actually I might but I won't do anything dangerous and I will never be in danger because I feel you are always with me. And i want to tell you more about you, what you are to me when you woke up."
Even if both know about eachother what they think or feel. They wanted to tell in face to face talking.
As he said He left the room.
And was Lulu awake or was still sleeping it was still a question.
Yuto: "I know Lulu you are having some kind of doubt or trouble. Maybe about the others three and Ray I don't know but I don't want you think that it is your fault or why I want to be more strong is because you are weak, you are not weak nor at fault but I just want to do it that is my answer."
And door was closed.
