A,N: Well here is the next chapter. Sorry for the wait though. I had other stories to attend to, but now the Zexal marathon starts. All the way up till the duel with Grace and Zaira, so hope that makes up for it. Thanks for Hearting and following me I really appreciate it. Please comment on what you think. Without further ado. Have fun reading.

Normal p.o.v.

Kite was driving in his white duel coaster, while following Quinton through the dragon's den. Anger was running through his veins now. Here was the man who had kidnapped his brother and in directly hurt him. He and his weird family. It was payback time. Quinton took a quick look at Kite behind him.

"You are eager Kite. Too eager" he then said. Kite sneered.

"I promise this ends today" he replied coldly.

Thought were running through his head now. Pictures of a rainy dark night with lightning was shown for his inner eye now. A person was standing there with long silver hair and a long coat around them. He was leaving. You won't escape from me Chris, or Quinton or whatever you call yourself now. Payback day is finally here. He followed Quinton down to a field. Soon they would have to duel.

Outside of the tribute, Yuma's friends still couldn't see any of the duels since there was still trouble with the video screen. A little away a familiar robot was rushing through the city. It is Kite's robot Orbital, and he was worried about his master. He were following the duel course and soon entered the dragon's den. He would rest before he had found Master Kite and made sure he was okay.

Zaira's p.o.v.

I was driving around in the dragon's den and was trying to figure out which of the remaining fields Grace were on. There were Space, Magma, Antarktika, Samurai and desert left, and I had no idea which field she could be on. I was actually wondering if Grace showed up on one of the fields, if I chose to go there. After all she wanted to face me. I had just thought that, when I once again could hear Yuma's yelling voice. I quickly moved out of the way. One time forced down to a field by Yuma was enough. Soon after I could see him and Tori rush through the coaster line, with really much speed. I felt rather sad for poor Tori who had to live with Yuma's terrible driver skills.

"I wonder where this crazy coaster is taking us" Yuma then yelled.

"Who knows" sneered Tori in annoyings "At this speed everything is just a blur".

"I can't slow down Tori" Yuma then replied "Not before I get to a field for a one on one duel".

However Astral pointed out that if he crashed he wouldn't have any duels at all. Tori flipped out because of it. I sighed and decided to approach them, but I wanted to drive behind them this time. I quickly changed roads and followed them.

"Yuma, I hope you never get money for a car" I then replied coldly.

Yuma and co. turned around for a split second to look at me.

"Zaira what are you doing here?" Yuma then questioned "Weren't you going to find Grace and settle things". I sneered angry. I really wanted to hit him for that.

"Can't you see she is trying to figure out what field Grace is at" Astral analytically observed "There is still 4 fields remaining". I nodded. Tori sneered angry.

"Slow down now!" she yelled "What happens if you rush into another trap Yuma?". She had just said that when a giant explosion occurred behind them.

"Um I don't know, but maybe something like this?" he then questioned and looked at the blast behind us.

I sneered a little and pushed Yuma forward. Whatever that was, I was making sure it didn't hit my car. Cy was sitting at the seat beside me. He was still acting as my co pilot. Problem was he was a spirit and he couldn't drive. Then a screaming voice could be heard and something shiny and metallic was flying through the air now. It of course crashed into Yuma's coaster car. Smoke was shown there now. My eyes widened and I looked rather surprised at the robot in Yuma's car now.

"This... this, this is not...my day" it then said and stuck it's head out of the coaster. It had landed between Yuma and Tori.

"Orbital?" Yuma questioned confused. The robot looked at him.

"Yu...mmama" it then said in a funny voice. I eyed him a little. It sounded like the crash had made his hardware or wire out of whack. "Do.. you know.. whe..re master Ki..te is?". Tori looked worried at the robot.

"You sound funny. Are you okay?" she then questioned. Orbital looked at her.

"That crowdsy girl is taggging along toooo" he then said.

Tori sneered and grabbed him. She threatened to pull out his wires, which made Orbital behave for now.

"Please don't do that. I have tooo goo and fiind Master Kite" the robot then said.

"So that is why you are here?" I then questioned "Can you locate him? I have a message to him from Dextra". The robot looked at me.

"The thief giirl here tooo. Good for nothing kind of girl" he then said. I coughed a little and Tori slammed him in the head. "Aw my processor!". Yuma looked at it.

"Orbital. Let's find Kite together then" he then suggested and looked at me "We apparently have a message to deliver". Orbital saluted.

"I am ooon it. Scanning now!" he then said and was trying to find Kite's signal.

Kite's p.o.v.

Kite and Quinton had just arrived at one of the fields. The space field. They were both standing on the roof of a space station who of course was in outer space. Kite found this field rather fitting, because of his Galaxy eyes deck. This fields effect were that if you Xyz summoned a monster, you could draw an extra card from your deck. This effect benefits them both, so Kite found this field rather fair. He was not a cheater in any kind, and wanted to use his own skills to defeat Quinton. It was payback for what they had done to Hart. Quinton looked a little around before turning towards Kite. Kite had a feeling, Quinton found this a fitting place for their duel as well. That rainy day ran through the head of Kite now. He just couldn't stop himself.

"At last" Quinton then said and made Kite focus once again "I knew you and I would face each other in battle some day Kite. Ever since I learned the truth about your family and mine, I have been filled with a desire to get revenge. I swore that nothing would stop me from settling the score. Nothing Kite!". At that Kite snort.

"You are gonna regret what you did to Hart" He then said "I will make sure of that".

When he had said that, Kite activated his gazer and duel disk, and Quinton followed his example. Soon the duel began.

Kite: 4000 Lp's.

Quinton: 4000 Lp's.

Quinton started off. He drew and summoned "Planet pathfinder". (Lv4) then he could summon "Solar wind jammer" from his hand to the field by it's eff. (lv5) By lowering this monster's att he could summon it to the field. Then he activated his spell "Tannhauser gate". With this card, by combining their levels, Quinton could now make his two monster both level 9 monsters. "I can guess what is coming next" Kite then said. Quinton smirked.

"I doubt it Kite" he then replied.

He overlaid his two monsters to xyz summon "Number 9 Dyson sphere". Since he xyz summoned Quinton could draw a new card from his deck. Kite looked rather puzzled around. He couldn't see any number.

"Where is your number Quinton?" he then questioned.

"You will discover that soon enough, I promise" Quinton then replied.

He placed one card facedown and ended his turn. Kite was up.

"That number must be around somewhere" Kite then said and looked around on the field for any sort of chance. He wasn't that lucky.

"It is your turn" Quinton then pointed out and smirked "You're looked a little worried Kite. What's wrong?".

Kite sended him a cold glare and drew. I know that number is out there somewhere, but even if I can't see it. I have to try and take it down. Kite started his turn off by summoning "Photon delta wing". Then he made the monster attack Quinton's hidden number. However for some reason, Kite's attack didn't go through. Neither monster got destroyed either. Kite was not sure what was going on.

"That was useless" Quinton then told him "Your attack couldn't possibly do any damage".

Kite looked rather surprised by that statement.

"But how could that be?" he questioned. Quinton smirked coldly.

"Wouldn't you like to know" he then said "To bad this will be over before you get some answers".

Then Quinton drew and attacked with his hidden monster. Kite saw some flashing light attack and before he knew it, his delta wing had been destroyed and he lost 1000 lp's. Kite flew through the air and got slammed to the 'ground'.

"How in the world did you do that Quinton?" he then questioned and got up.

"You wouldn't understand" Quinton then replied coldly "Just accept that I have you hopelessly outmatched and you are going to lose".

Kite sneered angry. We will see about that. I will not lose to HIM.

Zaira's p.o.v.

Yuma, Tori, Orbital and I had been following Kite's signal and had just now entered the space field. We all looked surprised around.

"Wow our duel coaster, has become a space coaster" Tori then said.

I nodded stunned. Even Cy looked rather surprised. This virtual field spell was quite realistic. It was like we were flying through space.

"Oh mistress it's so beautiful" Cy then said "Just like the real space".

"I didn't know you had been in outer space Cy" I then said puzzled.

He really sounded like he had been. Cy shook his head a little.

"I haven't mistress. I just figured it would look like this" He said.

I hummed a little and let it slide. It was not like number cards had been in space before after all.

"I am picking up a duel tap identification signal" Orbital then said "It is Master Kite".

"He must be aboard that ship" Yuma then concluded.

I and then others nodded. We flew/drew towards the ship. We were side by side. When we came closer, I was sure I saw some familiar white clothes that belonged to a certain hunter. However then everything actually went wrong. Figures! Yuma could suddenly not steer his coaster and of course in some weird amazingly way, he slammed into mine and we all crash landed on the space station thing with a loud 'BUM'. What we didn't know was that we crash landed right between Kite and Quinton in their ongoing duel. A lot of smoke got created and when it disappeared, I was lying on the button (again) of a crowd of people. Yuma, Tori and Orbital was lying on top on me. I was actually glad Cy wasn't solid right now. I could see him standing beside me on this roof now though.

"Next time I will do the driving" Tori then said. I coughed a little.

"I agree" I said "Anything so that this boy never get's his driver license. Now get off me!"

I had yelled the last part, and the others quickly got of me.

"Oh master Kite. It is such a relieve to seee your safe" said Orbital then.

I looked up and noticed that we landed a meter away from Kite now. He was looking at us with one of his cold glares. I got quickly up.

"So it's here you are Kite" I then said and snort "The space field eh, but whatever. I have something important to tell you. That is the reason I am here and got slammed twice by a coaster car".

I was sending cold eyes at Yuma now. He smiled awkwardly.

"Really?" Kite only said in an uncaring tone. He didn't care what my message were.

"It is about Dextra. She was in a duel against Vetrix, and she was defeated" I then said.

Kite's eyes widened a little "I saw it. Dextra was trying to stand up for you at the jungle field, but Vetrix was too strong. I know you don't like her in that way, but she is your comrade and she cares about you. I thought you should know at least".

"Well I couldn't care less" Kite then said coldly. I snort at him.

"You can't mean that" I then said.

However Kite didn't reply to that. Instead he was looking at something, or someone behind us.

"So it is Yuma Tsukumo and Zaira Wroom eh" I could suddenly hear and turned around to see Quinton walking over towards us "The son and adopted daughter of Kazuma Tsukumo. It is fitting that we all should meet up here. Destiny clearly brought us together".

Yuma sneered and walked over to him.

"Grr I want some answers from you" he then said "Tell me where my father is".

"Alright, before Kite and I resume, I will tell you everything I know about your father" Quinton actually agreed.

I was a little stunned by that. I didn't think he would agree so willingly. Kite on the other hand didn't want that.

"I wanna duel now. You can share your story some other time" he said in a cold tone. "Are we gonna continue to battle or not?".

"It can wait. The story that I am about to tell, concerns you as well Kite" Quinton said "Perhaps it would help all of you understand my family's actions. Why we came here to compete in the duel carnival". I snort coldly at that.

"I already know your story. Grace told me about it" I said. Quinton snort.

"Grace only knew a little piece of the truth" he then said and glared at me "I am actually surprised she told you that much in the first place. However there is a reason we targeted Kite and his brother Hart. The answer is they are the link to our real enemy. We seek revenge against their father, Dr. Faker!".

My eyes widened. I knew about Dr. Faker. I had seen Kite's memories, but I didn't know Faker was actually Kite and Hart's father. They were son to the man who build up Heartland.

"It began 5 years ago" Quinton then continued "Back then Dr. Faker and my father Byron Arclight were working together on experiments, in search of a door that could lead to other worlds...".

Flashback.

"The 21 abnormolish I detected should leave me to that portal, but it isn't working" Faker sneered "It seems like there is something missing in my calculations. It is driving me mad".

He slammed his hands at the control system. Byron Arclight who was his assistant was bringing him a cup of tea to calm this stressed doctor down. At Heartland tower the scientist Dr. Faker and Byron Arclight was working at their lab. Faker was at the computer researching and finding dimensional disturbances who would lead to finding that door. However everything was not going according to plan. Faker had found 21 points of different locations where this door had been popped up in the past, but even with all that data and technoligy at his disposal, he couldn't figure this puzzle out.

"Dr. Faker. Please have a cup of tea and try to relax" Byron suggested.

Faker sneered and slammed the tea cup out of his hand. It fell to the floor and broke. Tea was spilled everywhere. Faker looked angry at him. 

"There isn't any time to relax" he then yelled "Arclight I have to open that portal, before it is too late". Byron looked at him and smiled. 

"Doctor, don't forget there is someone else looking for the portal who might be able to help us. Hey Chris bring up the file we discussed".

He turned to his son who was standing a another console. Chris nodded and began searching for that specific file.

"If anyone can help us, it is this man" Byron then said "One of the world's most daring and greatest adventure, Kazuma Tsukumo".

Scene changed. 

At the top of ayers rock in australia was Kazuma Tsukumo sitting and enjoying the view. The sun was about to go down and it made the landscape ever so beautiful. 

"Ah what an incredible view" he then said "And I have it all to myself. There is no one else around for at least a 100 miles".

He had just said that when a helicopter was flying some meters up in the air. It was not very far from Kazuma.

"Of course I could be wrong" he then said when the helicopter landed close by him. Soon he was brought to Heartland tower by Chris. 

"Wow quite the impressive lair you got here" he then said and whistled. 

"Welcome" Byron then said and turned towards the man "I am sorry to have interrupted your trip so suddenly Kazuma Tsukumo, but I am glad you came. I am Byron Arclight and it is an honor to meet you".

The two men shook hands. Kazuma looked around in the lap. 

"These are the most advanced gravitational wave scan I have ever seen" Kazuma then said. 

"But they are not advanced enough" Faker then interrupted. He was sitting at the computer "I tried every possible technoligy, but still can't find the interdimensional portal. It must exist. I am sure of it, but there is something we are missing".

Byron turned to Kazuma. 

"Kazuma you have been looking for the portal too. Would you be willing to share your research with us?" he questioned. Kazuma walked over to the doctor. 

"If we succeed, it will change the course of human history. You will become famous and rich beyond our wildest dreams" he then said. Faker snort at that. 

"Nah, money and fame. They are of no interest to me. All I care about is locating that interdimensional portal" he then replied. Kazuma smirked. 

"Well in that case we can work together" He then proclaimed. 

"That was a test wasn't it?" Byron questioned.

"Living for adventure and the thrill of discovery is all I care about" Kazuma then said.

Byron smiled and stated they had found the right partner. Faker looked at Kazuma. 

"Take a look at this" the doctor said and a virtual map appeared on the floor. 21 data points were located all around the world "Arclight and I have detected 21 abnormal gravity readings all around the globe. We believe these readings indicate where the interdimensional portal has emerged in the past. By analysing this data, we were hoping to predict where the portal next appear". Kazuma looked at the map and hummed.

"So you based your prediction on this data?" he then questioned and walked inside the virtual map.

It was like he was part of the earth himself. Faker nodded. Kazuma smiled and told them that he had discovered two more data points on one of his trips. There were actually 23 data points. Faker began quickly to calculate all that.

"Kazuma was correct" Quinton said and continued telling the story "With the rest of the data he supplied with, Dr. Faker reworked his calculations. He soon identified the location where the portal will appear next. We raced there as quickly as we could. My father told me to return home and wait for him. They were having a challenging trip ahead of them, and he wouldn't bring me in any real danger. Secondly he asked me to take care of my siblings while he was gone. I agreed. However that was the last time I saw my father".

I looked a little stunned at him. So did Yuma and co. 

"Then how can you know what happened to them?" I then questioned. Quinton snort.

"You are right Zaira Wroom. That was after all the last time I saw them all three together, but when I finally saw my father again he told me everything" he then said and began telling the rest of the tale "Following doctor Faker's calculations, and with Kazuma guiding the group, they pressed onwards..".

At a blazing campfire, were Kazuma and Byron sitting. They had made a camp for the night. However the good doctor was inside his tent calculating and analysing the last information he had about the ruin and portal they were about to reach. Or that was what Faker had told them. In the meantime Byron and Kazuma was relaxing with a warm cup of coffee while watching the stars in the sky.

"What if all this effort we arrive at the location and there is no portal?" Byron then questioned. Kazuma smiled a little.

"Even if we fail in our quest, it will be worth the effort" he then said "Anyway the most important thing is that we never give up and keep feeling the flow".

"Feeling the flow?" Byron questioned.

Kazuma smiled and was holding up a picture of his family. His son Yuma and Daughter Kairi could be seen in it.

"It is something I tell my son, so that he never gives up" Kazuma then says.

"Is that your family Kazuma?" Byron then asked.

"Yes. My son Yuma is really into dueling" the explorer replied.

"Mine too. I have three sons and a daughter. Dueling means everything to them" Byron then said. "Dr. Faker also has kids. Two sons". Kazuma hummed.

"Do you know why he is so obsessed with finding that interdimensional portal?" he then questioned. Byron shrugged. He was not sure himself. 

Inside the tent, Faker had found some information about the portal.

"The runes I found was very clear" he then mumbled "'Deliver two souls for mysterious untold'. Two souls ha?". Then he smirked evilly.

Three days later. At the ruin's location. 

Faker, Byron and Kazuma had just arrived at the ruins location and looked stunned around.

"Gentleman, I think we found what we have been seeking" Byron then said. 

"Arclight look here" Faker then said.

He had walked a little into the ruins and was studying one of the walls in here. It was having symbols in red, blue and yellow colors "I saw these runes in my research. It is true. We have found the portal. Success at last. Now we just have to open it. Let's hurry".

He had just said that, when he stepped on a stone tile with ancient script on it. Kazuma quickly came to the rescue. It had been a trap and a giant stone fell down from the ceiling. If it hadn't been for Kazuma, Faker would have been flat as a pancake. At the same time the entrance sealed itself off. Someone clearly didn't want trespassers or want them to leave. 

"Dr. Faker! Kazuma!" yelled Byron worriedly. 

"Don't move!" Kazuma told him firmly. "Listen Byron we have to proceed carefully. This whole place must be filled with traps. Whoever built this place didn't want trespassers. If you want to leave here in one piece I suggest you watch your step".

Faker and Byron nodded. Soon they were continuing down a long staircase, who apparently lead to a cave of some kind. They all followed the stairs. Kazuma in the front, Byron in the middle and Faker in the back. They looked around in the cave though. Beside the road they were on, the only thing around them was this bottomless pit. They had to watch their steps. Soon they arrived at the top of the stairs. Some sort of pillar.

"I think we reached a dead end" Byron then said confused. 

"That's strange. Maybe we took a wrong turn" Kazuma concluded.

Both males were about to go back, when suddenly red energy appeared around their feets and they were paralyzed. Ancient script was shown at their feets now. 

"Gentlemen, the time has finally come" Faker then said. Byron and Kazuma noticed that he was standing down at the beginning of the stairs who lead up to the pillar. "Believe me. I regret that there is no other way".

"Dr. Faker?" Byron then said. He sounded rather confused "Doctor what's going on here?!".

"The writing beneath your feets explains everything" Faker replied "The ancient descriptions reads, deliver two souls for mysteries untold". Byron sneered angry. 

"You planned to betray us all along? Didn't you?" he then questioned. He couldn't believe it. 

"I have sworn to open a passage to other worlds and nothing will stop me" Faker replied. 

"You have lost your mind!" Kazuma yelled at him. "How can you do this doctor? How can you betray your friend". At that Faker smirked. 

"A friend?!" he questioned "So what. All that mattered to me was reaching my goal. Byron was useful for a time but now he is expendable".

He had just said that when the pillar and the staircase began to crumple around them. Before Byron knew it, he was falling through the air now. A red portal had appeared before him and Kazuma. He was about to fall down into it, when Kazuma grabbed his hand. He was hanging from the remains of the pillars and was trying to hang on. 

"I got you Byron. Just hang on" he yelled to him. 

"Kazuma, save yourself" Byron yelled back at him "Let go of my hand". 

"My son always tells me, that when he duels with someone, then they become friends forever. It is the same for me" Kazuma then said "Anyone who goes exploring with me, will always be my friend. We are in this together". Byron nodded. He was stunned by his words.

"Enough! The portal is open and you are both finished!" Faker yelled at them.

The edge of the pillar crumpled and Kazuma and Byron fell down into the portal beneath.

"You will pay for this Faker!" yelled Byron as his last words before the portal absorbed them.

"My father couldn't believe how Faker betrayed them" Quinton then ended his story.

"That was the last time anyone saw of my father" Yuma then concluded and sighed.

Quinton nodded slowly. I was not sure how to react to this. Kite's father, Dr. Faker, betrayed Byron and Kazuma. It was a terrible thing to do, but at the same time I had a feeling there were more to the story. I felt I had to stay neutral. After all if the information from Grace had been correct then Byron was now calling himself Vetrix. I could understand why he wanted revenge so badly, but I still couldn't forgive him for his actions. After all he hurt and kidnapped me and Hart.

"Yuma one day my father did return" Quinton then said and I sighed deeply "He found a way to travel through interdimensional gaps between the worlds, until he reached this world again. However there was a price. His appearance became warped until he was recognisable. My father now calls himself Vetrix".

Yuma, Kite and the others looked rather shocked at that news. I on the other hand weren't, since I already knew this. Yuma was staring at Quinton though.

"But I thought he was just a kid" he then said. I shrugged a little.

"It is all Faker's fault" Quinton then said "He betrayed my father and I have sworn to someday get revenge".

He was staring at Kite when he said that.

"This doesn't change anything" Kite then proclaimed "Dr. Faker means nothing to me. I only care about Hart, and I am getting even for what you did. Move away Yuma, Zaira and the rest of you. I have a duel to settle" .

At that we all moved out to the side lines. I knew we couldn't stop this duel. Even if we really wanted to. Kite and Quinton needed to settle this. I just hoped it didn't end like it did with Dextra.

Kite's p.o.v.

It was Kite's turn. He started off by summoning "Photon Thrasher" to the field. He could special summon this monster, since he had no other monsters on the field. Then he summoned "Photon pirate". He used it's eff. By banishing a monster from the grave, like delta wing, Kite's pirate gained 1000 att points. He now had two monsters with over 2000 att. I knew what was coming next.

"I tribute my Thrasher and pirate!" Kite then yelled and a sword appeared in his hand. He tossed it up in the air "Here comes a monster who is more savage than a supernova. With the catalytic force of 10 black holes put together. A cosmic storm that vaporizes anything in it's path. Galaxy eyes Photon dragon".

He was staring at Quinton now. Let's see, in the last battle my delta wing had 1800 att points. It was destroyed on my last turn and I got hit with 1000 points of damage. So then Quinton's invisible number must have 2800 att points.

"Galaxy eyes, use your 3000 att points to destroy Nb 9!" he then yelled and made his monster attack. However like before, Quinton stopped the attack for some reason.

"It failed?" Kite questioned confused "But how?".

"Of course it did" Quinton then replied "Do you understand why? Take a look at my number".

As he said that a giant light began to move. Kite's eyes widened. In the shadow of what be had believed was the sun, a object was now moving. It's long iron plates moved and in some way even covered the sun.

"No way!" Yuma yelled in surprise. Tori looked scared at this monster.

"A monster who is bigger than the sun" she then questioned.

"That thing" Kite then said. He was actually a little scared here "That thing is enormous. It is so huge. How could any monster destroy it? It seems impossible".

"That's because it is impossible" Quinton then replied "No one has ever defeated Dyson sphere in battle and no one ever will".

A,N: Well that was that chapter. Not as long as the others, but figured it was good to split it together with the episode for once. If you were wondering about Zaira and Quinton's duel in an old chapter, and his statement here that no has beaten this monster before. Well there is a reason for that, which is explained in the next chapter. You can properly guess what happens in the next chapter though. I will update the next part rather soon, so wait for it.
