Duel Academy: Destiny's End - Arc 2 - The Approaching Darkness [Started/Accepting via OOC]

[Dementuo]

"Hm? Oh, it's that OTHER Blue-Eyes kid, Damen." Zero walked over to Damen. "Hey, I'm Zero. The other Blue-Eyes Duelist. So, Where did you get your Blue-Eyes?" Zero asked. He wanted to know how there could be anyone else who used Blue-Eyes. At that moment, Zero's Blue-Eyes Spirit appeared behind Damen, though Damen didn't seem to notice. Zero then decided that he shouldn't let Blye-Eyes around Damen, as he could have a Blue-Eyes Spirit of his own. Just then, Zero noticed 2 new Spirits overhead. Blackwing - Armor Master and Blackwing - Twister the Infernal Hellstorm.

[.:Blu:.]

After hearing Damen saying her name is cute, Felicity began to blush and she lowered her head a little bit. "Thanks...." Felicity responded shyly. "Damen.... It's very nice to meet you, and thank you for reassuring me about not worrying too much about the duel...." Felicity said with a sweet smile.

 

Naturia Sunflower popped up besides Felicity. "Wow, Felcity, you sure are blushing a lot today, tehe." Sunflower teased her.

 

Felcity then saw Zero arriving and sat there quietly observing the two.

Akira's mark suddenly started glowing. He desperately tried to conceal it, though it was hard to do so. Then, Akira saw Zero moving across the crowd, apparently talking to Damen, the Blue-Eyes Duelist who had lost to Madame Clive earlier. Akira quickly rushed over to ask Zero about the mark glowing. However, seeing how Zero was chatting with Damen, he felt it would be rude to interrupt. Suddenly, the spirit of Crepuscule Aurora Dragon came out of his Duel Disk, apparently pulling out 2 more Duel Spirits Akira saw for the first time: Blackwing Armor Master and Blackwing - Twister the Infernal Hellstorm. Zero noticed and immediately looked up, apparently interested at the new spirits...

[Spirit of DMG]

Damen lifted his shoulders at Zero asking how he came to acquire a a Blue-Eyes deck. "At the moment, I don't claim to have a Blue-Eyes deck. Not a complete one at any rate. You see, I'm missing something that is, well, I consider it to be, vital. You see, I somehow never managed to acquire a Blue-Eyes Shinning Dragon." He took off his deck case necklace and looked at it. The cover clearly displayed the Shinning Dragon, thought the card visible through the small, inverted triangular window was clearly the Dragon Master Knight.

[Dementuo]

"Well, I could trade one to you. I have an extra one that I got from my last time in the Regionals." Zero said. "I don't need two of them, and you still need one, so I'd be more than happy to trade one to you. Of course, I'm not just going to GIVE you a card like this, but I'm sure that we can work something out." Zero continued. "But, that Dragon Master Knight is quite an Impressive card, though I'm not going to ask for a card that's THAT Rare, cause that card IS pretty rare." Zero admired the card for a second, then took a small step back. "So, What say you?"

[Zextra]

"Wait!" Akira shouted. "It's not necessary for you to trade, Zero; I don't run a Blue-Eyes deck and I have one too, so just take mine!" Akira handed Damen his Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon card. "I seem to have a lot of cards that don't have anything to do with me..." Akira mumbled. "Anyways, I hope you use it well, and I'm glad I'm able to finally let go of it for a good cause" Akira sighed happily. "Anyways, Zero, I need to ask you about 'that'!" Damen appeared to be confused at the question.

[Dementuo]

"Well... Ok then. That's fine with me, I guess. If that's what you want to do, Damen, then I guess I can't complain." Zero then noticed that Akira looked a little anxious. Why the long face, Huh? Is there something that you wanted to talk to me about? Are you wanting to just talk? Do you want to Duel? Or is it something else, Akira?" Zero asked. Zero was wondering why Akira looked so worried.

[Spirit of DMG]

"Hm? Well, I say, give me you're range, and I'll think about it. From what card or cards, to what card or cards are you willing to go, I may be willing and crazy enough to do it," he said, his effortless smile on his face, his eyes boring into Zero's. "For a card like that, I might be willing to give up anything in my deck. Except of course, any Blue Eyes or armed dragon cards. The exception to that being Armed Dragon 3. I have 5 of those. And, it's not like I can use all of them, I mean, the max for any one card is three." He said, and as he was about to re-do the clip on his necklace, Akira handed him a Shinning Dragon card. "uhhh, okay. Thanks," he said, setting the case on his lap, and taking the card. He opened the case, and set the card on top. "Now, get in there with your friends." He said, smiling a smile from ear to ear. He re-did the clip around his neck, and leaned back, once more letting the rays of the sun fall on his face.

[Zextra]

"I just...My mark started glowing all of a sudden...and it really hurt" Akira said with a pained look on his face. "Do you know what it means? Also, all of a sudden, my Blackwing Armor Master and my Blackwing - Twister the Infernal Hellstorm - they just materialized into spirits, and their spirits were never visible to me before". Then, Akira's 3 spirits formed and showed themselves to Zero, with Crepuscule Aurora Dragon in the middle. "I'm so confused, and I don't know what I got myself into by enrolling into this school" Akira said, clutching his head and falling to his knees.

[Dementuo]

"Hey, are you alright, Akira?!" Zero exclaimed, as he knelt down besides Akira. "Someone get a Doctor!" Zero shouted to the crowd. "Hey Akira, Akira! Can you hear me?" Zero said to Akira, though he knew that Akira was already unconscious. "Nrgh... I can't do that here, not now... It's too risky to try it now... I have to wait. That might not be the cause... But just what in the hell happened?" Zero thought.

[Spirit of DMG]

Damen walked over to where Akira lay unconscious, his stride unhurried, casual. He placed his index and middle fingers on Akira's neck. He kept them there for a few seconds, looking at Akira's chest with intense eyes. "It's okay," he finally said, voice calm. "He just lost consciousness for some reason. Could be the heat, it has that effect on some people." He looked around, searching for shade. "I'd suggest we move him to some place cool. Make sure he's comfortable."

[Dementuo]

"Alright, I'll take him to the Infirmary." Zero said. "I'm amazed how you can not be shocked by something like that, just happening out of the blue like that. Are YOU a Doctor?" Zero asked. "Well, that's not important now. What's important is that I get Akira to the Infirmary as soon as possible." Zero said. Zero knelt down besides Akira again, put his arms underneath Akira's and Zero lifted Akira up onto his back.

[Spirit of DMG]

"Me? A doctor? No, no, no. I just know the basic information like checking for a pulse and breath. Besides, I've learned to keep calm in most situations. It's useful in a duel, and in situations like this." he said, helping Zero lift Akira onto his back. "Trust me, freaking out is the last thing you want to do. Umm, has he had his duel yet? If not, we should tell the Chancellor. We don't want him getting in trouble for something he couldn't help." Damen said, his voice calm, hinting at concern.

[Dementuo]

"What? Oh, yeah, he's had his Duel already. Thanks for the help, by the way. So, I guess we can talk about that trade later. For now, I'm going to take Akira down to the Infirmary. So, See you later. But please do let the Chancellor know, or at least one of the teachers, ok? Thanks." Zero walked to the Infirmary, lay Akira down on one of the beds there, and sat down in a nearby chair. "Akarui. If you can hear me, then look after Akira for me. I'm going into the Spirit World. Finish your Duel quickly, then get down here, and wait for me." Zero thought, trying to communicate with Akarui through their Marks. There was a short flash of light, and Zero was gone.

[Spirit of DMG]

Damen nodded, and walked off to find the Chancellor, but not knowing even where to begin looking, he walked off to find Madame Clive. Upon entering the area, Damen looked straight at her, "Uhh, hope I'm not interrupting anything to terribly important, but, do you know where I can find the Chancellor? There's a bit of a situation I think he should know about. See, one of the applicants fainted for whatever reason. So, yeah..." he said, not knowing how this was going to help, yet certain he sounds like a babbling idiot at this point.

[evilfusion]

"You're not interrupting, not to worry," Madame Clive replied to Damen. "I'm still waiting for the applicant to arrive. He seems to be running a little late, is all. The Chancellor should be by the announcement podium, I'm afraid I can't see him from here."

 

She paused, weighing the situation over. "A student fainted? Is there one of the medical staff with him?" she asked seriously, for the moment forgetting about the wait for her opponent. There were far more important things than a duel if someone was ill or worse.

[The White Wolf]

Akarui took the damage, not even fazed by it "I'll end my turn with two face-downs." Akarui stated with a smirk "You might of taken down my dragon Rick. But that's just part one of the metal." Akarui stated with a..... very creepy, wide smirk. Not noticing what was going on. He hadn't enjoyed a duel for a long time. He was finally going to do so. "Finally." he stated "Finally I'm going to enjoy myself in a duel!" he declared.

Kenshin groggily woke up from the hammock that he, for some God unknown reason, kept in his backpack, and had now tied to two support beams below deck. "That was a good nap." He said, barely managing to get off the hammock without landing flat on his face. He then looked down at his Duel Disk's Life Point counter, which he had retooled into a digital clock, and started swearing profusely, "My entrance Duel was 10 minutes ago?!" He shouted, probably scaring the daylights out of some freshman getting seasick above him. After bolting up the stairs and zigzagging through the crowd, he saw a bunch of people crowding around a student that appeared to be unconscious, Thank God for seasickness. He though happily, Just hope that dude survives, or I'm gonna feel like a prick later on. "Hey, excuse, I'm here for my practice Duel!" He piped up, "The name's Kenshin, I think I'm in the right spot at least."

[Zextra]

Akira opened his eyes, sunlight blinding him - he was lying in the middle of a forest with Zero next to him. "It doesn't make sense, one minute I'm on a ship, and the next I'm outside in the middle of a random forest. Ughh, maybe I'm just dreaming... maybe none of this is actually happening". Then Akira suddenly remembers when his Lunar Mark had hurt him. He looked at his hand - The mark was still there, though it had stopped glowing. Zero stood up, looking like he had something to say...

[Dementuo]

"Need a hand?" Zero helped Akira to his feet. "Welcome to the Siprit World." Zero said. "You were brought here for a reason, and I came in after you. You're going to need help getting back, and I can guide you through this place. I come here often with my brother, and we've established a camp nearby. C'mon, it's this way." Zero said. He guided Akira to an old, run-down looking building, that was about 6 or so stories high. "We can stay here for now until we know what to do next." Zero explained. They went inside. "Wait here. I'll be right back."

[Zextra]

"Wait, how come you're here, too? Rather, how did you get in?" Akira looked puzzled. He was glad that Zero was with him, but clueless as of what was going on. "You said I was brought here for a reason. Do you know why?" Akira asked Zero, hoping to get answers, "and how are you able to get in and out of here?" Akira managed to stop himself from annoying Zero with his questions "I'm sorry for being a nuisance to you", he apologized.

[The ReBeL]

Brians duel spirit started to make noises as i she was very excited about the duel. She didn't talk to him unless she was on the field or in the hand. Since the Earthbounds weren't allowed it didn't matter. She new that Lance was going to be Brian's toughest duelist ever. She new that he was good inside and then decks he ran were opposites since the loss of the EBI's in the water. She wanted him to make that deck back again no matter what. She new he would because he loved thoughs cards so much as to sleep with his deck and duel disk next to him when he was living alone.

[Dementuo]

"Don't worry. I'm sure that you're confused. So I'll explain. As I told you before, Lunar energy is what allows us to see D-Spirits. Thus, those who control a vast amount of that energy can enter the Spirit World, which is formed by Lunar Energy. Just as Momentum is used in the Real World, Lunar Energy is used here is the Spirit World. However, if one was summoned here, like yourself, then you can't leave until you've completed the task that would be placed before you. I'm leaving for a few minutes to have a talk with the Guardian of this world, the Ancient Fairy Dragon." Zero Explained. "Once I do that, we should know why you're here. Oh, and if a young girl with green hair comes here, then tell her that I went to see the Ancient Fairy Dragon. She's a very close friend of mine." Zero continued. Zero then left the building.

[Zextra]

Akira agreed, then said goodbye to Zero as he rested at the camp. "What is wrong with me today? I think this is too much to handle for me - Guardians, Dragonfire, I don't know if I have the strength..." Then, all of Akira's duel spirits materialized into solid beings, not just spirits. "Oh, of course, this is the Spirit World, all spirits would have actual form here" Akira thought. "I guess I can't do anything until Zero gets back, so I'll just wait here and communicate with my spirits..."

[Dementuo]

Zero was walking up to a clearing that was among the countless trees and bushes. "Lets see here... The Ancient Fairy Dragon should be right around here... There." Zero thought to himself. "Good to see you again, Ancient Fairy Dragon." Zero appeared to be talking to a card he was holding. "I came here to look after a friend of mine. He's a Guardian like I am, though I need to know why he's here... So that's it huh? Well, Thanks, Ancient Fairy Dragon." Zero placed the card back in his pocket, as, for some strange reason, he didn't have a Deck here, though Zero knew why. Then, Zero started back for the camp.
