Normal p.o.v.

Inside their room at that hotel they had rent, Hart and Dr. Faker were also watching Kite's duel with Yuma, on one of the screens they were having in here. They had easily equip themselves to Kite and Yuma's AR system. After all, it was rather easy for the good doctor, who had also build Heartland city and were a great scientist to add to that. However right now, Faker was facepalming a lot, since Yuma's speech to his son about dueling. It was so stupid and simple, that Faker didn't think Yuma's words would reach his son at all. Hart however were smiling brightly.

"It is gonna be okay, I promise" he reassured his father. "I have seen that look before and Kite is differently not giving up".

Faker looked stunned at his son, but nodded slightly. If Hart said so, then it must be true. Faker knew the bond between the two Tenjo brothers. He had after all misused it, to make Kite become a Number hunter. Something he now regretted with all his heart.

"Hey what is that funny look on Kite's face?!" Hart suddenly uttered, and made Dr. Faker return to the screen and the duel who was underway.

"It's a smile" Hart continued in a happy tone "It feels like forever, since I have seen him do that. I never seen Kite smile so natural".

Faker looked stunned at the boy. Then he pulled Hart in for a tiny little hug. Something the boy returned right away. Kazuma, your son maybe the one to show my Kite, what dueling is really about. The good doctor sighed however inside. He regretted, that he could not be the one teaching him that lesson, but was happy that Yuma could. Seeing Kite happy, and dueling because he wanted to, instead of had to, made the good doctor very happy.

At the rooftop of a different hotel, was the Arclight's watching this duel as well. The 4 Arclight children were assembled around Vetrix, and were just happy they could be together, like a family once again.

"Isn't that nice?" Vetrix then said "It sounds like Kite has a renewed interest in dueling, and it is all thanks to Yuma.. and Zaira perhaps. Yuma has a lot in common with his father. They both see the value of friendship. Something they both has passed on to Zaira. Maybe they are onto something".

"Are you happy father?" Grace questioned slowly and looked out in the horizon "Are you happy she forgave you?". Quattro coughed a little.

"Forgave him?" he uttered "She didn't say any word about that".

"Says someone who saw Shark's final words as accepting your apology" Quinton hummed out "What was it he said, 'I will beat the hell out of you, next time we duel'. How can you even see that as forgiveness?".

"What are you talking about Quinton? That is just the language of two rivals speaking. You shall read through the lines here. Shark has totally forgiven me" Quattro then said proudly. Grace and Trey just both sweat dropped a little.

"But father, did my beloved angel, really forgive you?" Trey questioned "Not that I don't question my Zaira's kindness, but all she wanted was seeing your face".

"And ask about her brother" Quattro added "How is that forgiveness?".

"She wanted to know if father had given up on revenge" Grace explained and smiled a little "Even though father didn't apologize by words, Zaira could see him repent in his eyes. I guess that is why she forgave him. Forgave us!".

"Yes that girl has a big heart. Maybe too big of a heart" Vetrix mused slowly "I did want to say I was sorry, but I just couldn't say it. I did terrible things to her".

"Is it true you really don't know who her family and brother is Vetrix?" Quinton asked slowly "You saw her memories. You must have seen something".

"Believe me Quinton, if I knew I would have told her" Vetrix replied with a sigh. "All I know is that this girl has a great destiny in store for her. I can feel it".

"She is an angel!" Trey said in a dreamy voice "Such an beautiful angel".

"Who knows" Vetrix replied with a smile "Maybe you are on to something. Quinton, Quattro, Trey and Grace, we are off".

Vetrix summoned a portal behind them, and soon walked through it. Quinton and Quattro followed after. Only Grace and Trey stayed behind for a moment, both looking out in the horizon.

"Yes coming father" Trey then said and turned towards the portal, mumbling "Yuma, beloved Zaira. Thank you for everything".

Then he went through the portal as well. Grace was still standing there in a couple of seconds, before she waved out in the sky with a happy smile, before turning to the portal.

"See you Zaira, thank you for being my friend".

Zaira's p.o.v.

I was standing out on the sideline, along with Shark and the usual gang of Yuma's friends. We were watching this epic duel between Kite and Yuma. Tori given me the latest update, and I was actually surprised that Yuma had managed to take Kite's Galaxy eyes down. For one of those reasons, I let Yuma duel Kite along with Astral. He didn't need me any longer to know what was the right card to play. That however didn't mean I didn't want to witness this duel. I still wanted to cheer on Yuma, and I was sure Shark wanted the same thing, even though he would never admit it. He told me the only reason he was here, was because I wanted to be here. Yeah right! Like he didn't want to see Yuma trying to beat the heck out of Kite. The hunter who had beat us both in a duel, giving us a humiliating defeat.

"Yuma I am gonna make you sorry for talking me back into this match" Kite said.

"Yeah, yeah, less japing and more dueling" Yuma replied with a smile. I rolled my eyes. I just hoped Yuma hadn't let his guard down.

Kite: 2200 Lp.

Yuma: 2500 Lp.

Kite drew and started off his turn with his spell "Card of adversity". Since his opponent controlled a monster who was special summoned, Kite could now draw 2 cards. One of those two cards was the spell "Accellight", which he was now using. With that card, he could bring out a lv 4 light attribute monster from his deck, as long as he had no monsters on the field. Kite special summoned his "Daybreaker" to the field. Day breaker's eff activated. Since it was special summoned to the field, Kite could summon another 'Daybreaker' from his hand to the field. Then he overlaid his two monsters to xyz summon "Starliege Paladynamo". (R 4, 2000 att, 1000 def)

"Oh I hope he is through" Yuma said in a hopeful tone.

"No he is not" Astral replied. I nodded from the sideline. Kite was not done yet.

"Exactly right Astral, because now my monster's effect activates" Kite then told us.

I was a little surprised that Kite could see Astral. That until Shark told me he could as well, and I figured out that our meeting with that barian at Heartland tower, enabled Kite, Shark and Tori to see Astral now.

However Kite monster eff activated. By using one Ou, Kite could make one monster on the field, lose all of its att points, and all cards face up on the field, other that Kite's Paladynamo, loses all their effects. I sneered a little. Utopia could not use it's eff too protect himself. That and Yuma's Zerozerock spell card lost its eff too. Utopia was completely helpless now. Kite attacked Yuma's Utopia, giving Yuma 2000 points of damage (2500-500), as well as making him fly backwards and hit the ground pretty hard. I bit my lip. That was some more Kite made here.

"I end my turn. Your move!" Kite then told Yuma. At that Yuma groaned a little, and got up and sit. He shook his head a little, before he got up on his feet.

"Kite is in top form" Astral replied in thoughtful matter.

"I know. That is why this is such a great duel" Yuma proclaimed and smiled "Kite! You better watch out, because I can feel a comeback kicking in".

"You wish that was true, but like every time you duel. You are in over your head pal" Kite replied with a smirk.

I couldn't stop smiling at that comment. Yuma had always been way over his head in a duel, but always had surprisingly good come backs. I knew that this duel could still go both ways.

"Those days are long gone" Yuma replied and grinned "And I will back that up, by taking you down".

It was Yuma's turn. He drew and used the spell "Card of spell containment". With this card, Yuma could draw two cards, but draw back, he couldn't activate or set spell or trap cards this turn. Yuma summoned "Gagaga Caesar" to the field in att mode. (lv 3, att 1800, 1600). When he controls another Gagaga monster, he is also allowed to special summon "Gagaga clerk" from his hand. (lv 2. 400 att)

"It is time to kick in this Gagaga party, by activating Caesar special eff" Yuma then said and did just that.

By banishing one monster from his grave, all his monsters on the field, became the same lv as it. Yuma banished "Ganbara knight" who was lv 4, which also made his two Gagaga monsters lv 4 now.

"Watch out Kite, Yuma is on the attack" Bronk uttered in confident tone.

"Things are looking up" Flip added and Cathy continued "Yuma feel the flow".

"That's it! Finish him up!" Tori yelled as the last one.

Shark and I looked a little annoyed at them. Yes, of course Yuma needed the cheers, but they could be a little annoyed too. I decided to not join that competition. Yuma knew I was voting for him anyway. He didn't needed it in a cheer, and I was sure Shark felt the same way.

"I overlay my two Gagaga monster to build the overlay network and Xyz summon.." Yuma began and kept us all in suspense "Heroic champion Excalibur".

"Hah, Yuma is using the monster he got from me. Let him have it, clobber Kite" I could then hear Nistro yell.

I smirked a little. I wonder how Dextra took this. Yuma however attacked with his Excalibur. He used its monster eff. By using all its Ou's, Excalibur's att was doubled to the end of Yuma's turn. It was now having 4000 att. That was more than enough to beat Kite's monster, and deal him a lot of damage. Kite now got blown backwards as well, leaving him with only 200 life points. However like Yuma, he was quick on his feet's.

"You may have destroyed my Paladynamo, but if you hope to beat me, you need to do a lot more than that" Kite said and smirked.

"I will. "Yuma replied with a smile of his own "But now I end my turn".

"Yuma may has ended his turn alright, but hopefully his chances of winning are overdue" Flip then said. I sent him a cruel look that made the boy shut up quickly.

"This duel is so intense it is giving me the whiskers. I mean the shivers" Cathy then said and poured like a cat in happiness.

"Well if you ask me, that is a good thing" Tori replied slowly and smiled. She continued when I and the others here, looked puzzled at her. "What I mean is, that Yuma and Kite looks like they are having a time of their life".

"Well that is true" I said and smiled "This is an epic duel. Can't believe I were almost about to miss..". I cut myself in mid-sentence. A weird sensation were running through me. Like someone was watching me. It gave me the creeps.

"What is wrong Zaira?" Shark then questioned. Our eyes meet and I could feel the worry that look gave me, even though Shark would never show that in others presence. I smiled a reassuring smile at him.

"It is nothing. I just felt a weird presence, but it all gone" I replied slowly.

"Want me to go and check?" my boyfriend then replied. I shook my head.

"No I'll just ask Cy to do it for me" I replied and sent a mental note to my number card and friend. It didn't surprise me one bit, that Cy already had done that.

"I can't sense any strange presence Mistress" Cy said seconds later "But if I do, shall I attack them, for being near you?". I shook my head instantly.

"Just warn me, if there is any" I replied inside my mind "We are after all strong enough to deal with anyone, who could possibly be a treat to us". Cy growled in agreement to that, and drove back into my soul. I returned back to watching Yuma and Kite's duel.

Mysteries' p.o.v.

However what Zaira didn't know was that her feeling had been correct. There were in fact someone who was watching her, And were still watching here, although they were keeping their energies at the bare minimum. All so she no longer could detect them. The entity was able to watch the whole duel actually, but its eyes were only fixating on Zaira here. Or Zaira and the Astral being beside Yuma's side.

"She detected my presence. Then there is no doubt about it" The being mused to itself without anyone actually hearing it. "She is the one. The one I have been looking for all this time". It's eyes wandered to Astral again.

"How that stupid Astral prince got his hands on her, I don't know, but she will not stay there for long. No! No, No!" the entity hissed angrily "She is mine! Mine! Yuma Tsukumo and Astral will pay dearly for that. I will make sure of that". The entity went silence for a while. Its eyes fixated on Zaira with longing eyes.

"But sadly she fights for them!" the being sneered "For some reason she just do. That may change my plans just a little bit. Not that it changes the outcome though". The creature chuckled darkly at that. Then it smirked.

"Zaira can be a challenge if you don't know how to handle her" the creature then said slowly and chuckled "This is gonna be interesting". Then the entity disappeared out of the blue.

Yuma's p.o.v.

Yuma: 500 Lp's.

Kite: 200 Lp's.

Yuma was smiling. Actually he was so happy and ecstatic that he couldn't contain himself. He wanted jump around in joy. Only reason he didn't was because he needed to focus on the duel he was having with Kite. This awesome and epic duel he was having, where he on one level never wished ended. It was so exciting. This was the duel he was waiting for. Two duelists clashing in an epic duel, where one of them made a move, and the other tried to outdo it. Yuma had a wide smile on his face now. He couldn't wait to see what Kite was gonna do now.

"Here I go, My turn!" Kite shouted and drew a card.

Yuma was eager to see what would happen now. Kite activated the spell "Galaxy zero" from his hand. This card could bring back Kite's galaxy eyes from the grave, as well as equip on to the monster. Only drawback, Kite's monster lost all its special eff's.

"This duel just got a whole lot tougher, which means it's got a whole lot of fun too" Yuma proclaimed with a smile. Kite smiled at that.

"Galaxy eyes may be back, but it loses 800 att points duo to Galaxy zero's eff" Kite then explained. Yuma could see Galaxy eyes att drop to 2200.

"Well Dextra, Yuma may be able to get the other hand now" Yuma could hear Nistro say in the background.

Dextra apparently didn't take that so well. Yuma's attention were soon directed towards Kite again, when he attacked with his Galaxy eyes and blasted Yuma's monster from the field. Yuma got blown backwards, hitting the ground pretty hard. His life points dropped down to 300.

"Now that, that is over, Galaxy eyes att return to normal" Kite replied and tossed down a face down and ended his turn.

It was Yuma's turn. The lobster haired kid didn't take many seconds, before he was up on his feet again. He was smiling happily at Kite.

"Nice move" Yuma commented "But I got a few of my own. So get ready!".

"Count on it Yuma" Kite replied in a confident tone.

Yuma drew and started off his turn with the spell "Gagagadraw". By banishing three Gagaga monster's from his grave, Yuma could draw 2 cards. He banished Gagaga clerk, magician and Caesar. Then Yuma activated the spell "Xyz revival". He could bring an Xyz monster back from his graveyard now.

"Oh, oh Kite. Getting scared?" Yuma questioned in a teasing tone.

"Please do I look scared to you Yuma" Kite replied in a cold tone "You are so predictable. I know what you will bring back".

"I am just doing what works Kite" Yuma replied slowly "And I know this will do it. Come on back Utopia!". Nb 39 Utopia now returned to the field in att mode.

"Ha, you know Utopia is no match for Galaxy eyes" Kite now said and smirked.

"That's a fact I am gonna chance. Right now! Go chaos xyz evolution" Yuma shouted and made Utopia disappear into the overlay network. "Appear now chaos number 39 Utopia ray". The black and majestic warrior monster Utopia Ray now appeared onto Yuma field in all its glory.

"Seeing as I have chaos number 39 utopia ray on my field, let's put it to work" Yuma then proclaimed and used his monster's eff. By using an Ou, Utopia ray gained 500 att points, giving it 3000 att. At the same time Kite's galaxy eyes lost 1000 att points.

"The stage is now set for my monster to take down yours" Yuma then told Kite. Then he kinda attacked with his monster.

"Sorry to disappoint, but your monster won't be taking down anything anytime soon" Kite then replied and activated the equip card galaxy zero's eff. "By sending this card to the graveyard, my Galaxy eyes isn't destroyed".

Yuma could see how Kite's dragon got hit by utopia ray and survived the attack. It created a lot of dust.

"Oh yeah, but you still took battle damage so you lose.." Yuma began saying, but stopped himself, when the dust cleared. For some reason Kite was still standing, and more surprisingly, he was still having 200 life points left.

"Hey what gives?!" Yuma uttered rather confused. Kite smirked at that.

"What gives is that since my dragon is no longer equipped with Galaxy zero, it loses all its att points" he then explained "That would normally be a bad thing, but Yuma have you forgotten about your own card?".

"Huh?" Yuma uttered even more puzzled. What card was Kite talking about?

"Yuma you idiot, he is talking about your Zerozerock's eff" Zaira then suddenly shouted from the sideline. "It is a continuously spell card. Both players can use it!".

Yuma was staring in disbelief. He had completely forgotten about that card. Sadly Kite hadn't, and he had used that to his advantage.

"It is all because of me?" Yuma uttered. He still couldn't believe this.

"Yes Yuma, I owe my move all to you. Now neither of us can attack a monster with 0 att points. And so Utopia's attack was canceled out" Kite replied in a confident tone.

"Oh this is bad!" Yuma uttered in a scared tone.

Since he hadn't successfully attacked Kite's Galaxy eyes, Kite's continuous spell card "Battle gravity" would deal him a lot of damage. To be more specific. 1000 points of damage. He would lose the duel. Kite smirked at that, telling Yuma the exact thing he was thinking. That he would get 1000 points of damage, and lose the duel because he only had 300 life points left. However Yuma were quick to find a way out of this. He activated his continuous trap card "Dimension gate". With this card, he could banish Utopia Ray from the field, and thereby he wasn't attacking Kite's galaxy eyes, and battle gravity didn't deal him any damage at all. The spectators who was on Yuma's side sighed in relieve.

"Wow nicely played Yuma" Nistro commended.

"Master Ki-te, please don't lo-ose to th-is loo-ser!" Orbital uttered in a scared tone.

Yuma however ended his turn with one facedown.

"Yuma" Astral suddenly said "I am impressed with your skills". Yuma's eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't believe what he was hearing here.

"Eh? Do you really mean that?" he questioned. Knowing Astral who was always observing him, telling him how bad his skills was, this here caught Yuma completely off guard. Astral nodded slightly.

"You have executed the last few moves completely on your own" he said thoughtfully "You may not need Zaira or my help anymore".

"Stop talking crazy!" Yuma said firmly and looked at the ghost "It is because of you two I duel the way I do. You, I and my sis Zaira, we are a team, and that will never change.. Av!".

A tiny stone hit Yuma in the back and he quickly turned around toward the one who had tossed it. Zaira looked pretty mad at him from the sideline.

"Stop calling me sis!" she shouted at him. Yuma looked annoyed at her.

"Hey that hurt you know. You don't toss small stones at people" he scolded back.

"Then stop calling me sis. You know my name is Zai! Got that!" Zaira sneered back.

"But I did say your name. So stop tossing these stupid stones!" Yuma sneered angrily "You are just embarrassed that we all are a team sis, and.. Av".

Zaira tossed another one, hitting Yuma with the little pebble. She would surely have done it again, if it wasn't for Kite interrupting their squabble.

"Listen up you three, I have to say that was really, really, touchy, and I almost hate to break the bad news to you, but the fact is, I am winning this duel" he said and smirked at him.

Yuma and Zaira, as well as Astral looked at him. Zaira gave him a thumbs up. The sign for him to continue this duel. Astral nodded as well.

"Let's win this duel together Yuma" And Yuma nodded in agreement.

It was Kite's turn. The hunter drew and summoned "Galaxy wizard". It was a lv 4 monsters, but when it was summoned and used for Xyz summon, it could count as 2 lv 8 monsters.

"Here it comes!" Yuma uttered in an eager tone. He knew what was coming now.

"You don't know how right you are" Kite said and smirked. He overlaid his galaxy eyes and his 'two' galaxy wizards, so he could xyz summon..

"Prepare to witness the mightiest of monsters. With the power of this beast, the battle is over!" Kite shouted and tossed the sword into the overlay network. "Say hello to Neo galaxy eyes photon dragon!".

A blast of light appeared and soon a red and black, three headed dragon were standing on Kite's field, and were roaring loudly at them. Only good thing, since Kite had used galaxy wizard as Ou, his Neo galaxy eyes lost 2000 att points, giving it 2500 att.

"Funny however, as my points drop, so does your chances of winning" Kite proclaimed with a smirk and attacked Yuma directly.

However Yuma was ready for him. He activated the other eff of his trap dimension gate. When he sent that trap to the grave, Yuma could once again summon the monster who was banished. Utopia Ray returned to the field with 2500 att points. Since Neo Galaxy eyes and Utopia Ray had the same amount of att points they were both destroyed. A double KO. However Yuma was not done yet. Since he controlled no monsters when his Xyz monster got destroyed, he could activate his facedown spell card "Xyz double back". Now Yuma could summon Utopia Ray back, along with another xyz monster who had equal or fewer att points. So Yuma brought back Utopia.

"What?!" Kite uttered surprised. Yuma was very pleased with that Kite hadn't seen that coming. Now when it was his turn, Kite would be completely open.

"Alright, we are so gonna win this Astral" Yuma said confidently.

Tori and the gang were all rooting for him on the sideline. That until a rumbling sound could be heard all around the field. Two monsters emerged from the ground now on Kite's field. Two very vicious dragons. Neo galaxy eyes and Galaxy eyes photon dragon had now emerged onto Kite's field. Yuma's eyes widened in surprise. So did Astral's.

"How is that possible?" Yuma uttered in a scared tone now.

Zaira's p.o.v.

I was literally staring when Kite suddenly had summoned his two Galaxy eyes back. I mean I really thought Yuma had him this time. Although considered how the duel had progressed, the duel could go both ways. Yuma and Kite had fought valiantly. Neither of them were gonna give up, and that was why this duel was rather epic. I really could see how much Yuma had progressed through dueling. Like Astral said, his skills had become impressive, but hey we are talking about one who actually could stand up two rounds against Dr. Faker without Astral. Okay yeah Kite and Shark had helped him, but still, Yuma really have come a long way as a duelist. I was proud as well as sad. Yuma didn't need me any longer. Yeah sure, Yuma's speech with that we are a team, really did touch me, but in the long run, Astral might be the only thing he needs. Which kinda means, I might have more free time. I was chuckling a little inside. Okay maybe I was a little sad at that, but hey I have done a great job and I have Shark as a boyfriend now too. It was just like this duel I guess. Yuma and Kite, as well as everyone who was watching, were having a great time. So much that none of us wanted it too end. Sadly that had to happen at some time. Like right now when Kite summoned his Galaxy eyes. I just knew Yuma had made some sort of error. Like playing his trump at the wrong time. Kite might overdo it. I figured this was the case here. Kite had saved his ace at the right time unlike Yuma.

"He got both his Galaxy eyes' back?" Yuma questioned confused.

"It appears Kite also used Xyz double back" Astral replied slowly. I sighed deeply inside. So that was why Kite got so surprised when Yuma played the card. He was having one as well. Yuma's eyes widened at that.

"You had the same card this whole time?" He asked Kite. Eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yes, Ma-ster Kite may have t-the same car-card, but he saved it for the right ti-me" I could hear Orbital sing song at the sidelines "Looks like your plans got pla-plastered Yuma. In your face!". In that moment I really wanted to turn Orbital into scrap metal.

"Oh man!" I could hear Yuma complain, and I knew this duel was official over.

"Don't be upset, you dueled well" Kite actually praised a little, before he chuckled darkly. He was staring firmly at Yuma "But in the end there can only be one winner, and that winner will be me!".

Then he kinda attacked with his two galaxy eyes and destroyed Yuma's Utopia's completely. Yuma had not enough life points to survive. Therefore it really wasn't a surprise that Kite got declared winner of this duel. Of course everyone was still a little stunned over the outcome. I mean they had been dueling back and fought, so it may be a little surprising that is was over now.

Yuma on the other hand was lying on the ground completely defeated. No wonder with all that energy, Kite and Yuma had put in the duel. Yuma did however open his eyes slowly and tried to maybe process that he lost to Kite once again.

"How, How did I do?" He questioned slowly.

Maybe he hoped he had at least impressed his friends a little. I smirked at that. Yuma had done plenty of that. I had a feeling Bronk and the others might even avoid Yuma for a time, so they could improve. He were head to head with Kite after all.

"You did okay, for losing" Kite replied and walked over to him.

He was holding his hand towards him, so he could help him up on his feet's. I smiled at that. Kite had really taken that whole friendship thing to him. The old Kite would never had done something like that. That's for sure.

"Thanks Kite" Yuma replied with a smile "You know I am gonna win our next duel right?". I sweat dropped a little at that. Of course Yuma were only thinking of dueling. After all when was not?!

"I will face you again any time Yuma, but first things first. You gotta improve" Kite replied and began walking away. I couldn't let that chance slip away and ran out on the field, with a ready duel disk.

"Hey Kite wait up!" I shouted and made the blond haired male stop up. Everyone present here were looking surprised at me. "What about we two duel? I wanna see if I have improved too".

A lot of eyes were widened now. Nistro even looked at me in disbelief. Like there actually was someone else than Yuma, who wanted to challenge Kite to a duel. Just like that. Kite hummed at that.

"As I recall it, you lost to Yuma in the WDC" Kite then said and turned towards me "Which means you are even more terrible than Yuma".

"Wait what?!" I sneered angrily and I had a feeling Cy wanted to terminate him inside my soul, because of that comment "That does not count, you damn blondie. I lost on purpose! To protect Yuma! Vetrix were controlling me and you know it!".

Kite just smirked at me. He had made me angry on purpose too. I was about to say something, properly something mean back at him, but a certain butterfly girl wouldn't let me.

"You dare say those thing to Kite!" Dextra yelled at me "You just stay far away from him you annoying wolf girl. I just knew you had a crush on him". I rolled my eyes. Of course she would think that. I couldn't even challenge Kite, before that came up.

"Wait what?!" I could then suddenly hear Shark yell and rushed to my side "You have a crush on him?! As in like him?! Zaira, why did you never tell me?! Don't tell me you have a thing for him now? What are you seeing in him anyway?!".

I growled in annoyance. I was not having a crush on the guy!! And since when was Shark jealous on Kite?! I sighed deeply inside. How in the world did this situation happen in the first place?! Shark was glaring at Kite. Then at me. Dextra was at me, and I had no idea on how Kite and the others saw this. Point is they were accusing me at the same time, and I somehow was caught in the middle of it. Knowing Dextra, she would say something if I just said something about Kite. Whatever it was. Even if I did say I didn't like him. That again Shark wanted an explanation. As in right now! I sighed and did the only thing I could come up with. I pulled Shark closer and kissed him. On the lips in front of everybody. For at least 5 seconds Shark's blue eyes were staring at me, then he began kissing back. I was not sure when we pulled back, but when we did, Yuma looked rather dumbfounded. Nistro was having his mouth open in surprise, Kite was smirking in a teasing evil matter, and Dextra was as dumbstruck as Yuma.

"See I only love Shark. I never had a crush, besides him" I said very confident and took Shark's hand. "Besides he is my boyfriend". Dextra just nodded. She was still rather stunned. I was mighty pleased with that. That until I heard..

"Observation Extra , if someone is accused she or he, which depends on human gender, will 'kiss' the one they are together with. A really fascinating display, I must say..". My eyes angrily over to Astral who had been observing everything.

"Astral stop observing!" I sneered "That was a private conversation. Secondly you don't always kiss people when you are accused you know. I needed to prove a point".

"Prove a point? On what exactly?" Astral asked curiously. I rolled my eyes.

"Never mind. Get Yuma and Tori to explain that to you. I am out of here. You are all giving me a headache!" I sneered and began leaving.

"You are not leaving me Miss stubborn" Shark said and squeezed my hand a little. "You so owe me for that kiss you know".

I rolled my eyes, but sure my boyfriend could tag along. After all that Shark was the only one I actually wanted to hang out with. Yuma eyes widened at that.

"Ahr Zaira where are you going? It is dinner time soon" he then yelled at me.

"Well tell Grandma I am on a date with my boyfriend" I just replied and waved at them all "Later". Shark smirked at me and made our finger intervened.

"The restaurant we had our official first date?" Shark then asked "I give".

"Yeah sure, I am up for a sandwich".

..Well dear Diary.

That was the first tale of my great adventures with Yuma Tsukumo and his crew. At that moment in time I were truly happy. I was no longer hung up by the past, and I even managed to get hooked up with Reginald alias Shark Kastle. Everything couldn't be better. We stopped Dr. Faker and Vetrix from revenge and destroying Astral world. I even entered the positive world as Yuma would call it. The future was looking really bright. What I didn't know however, was that I couldn't be more wrong. Destiny had clearly something more dangerously in store for me, because..

In another world filled with crystals, red tundra's and floating energies, was 4 creatures standing inside a giant throne room, of some kind of palace. All 4 dressed in different cloaks, and it looked like they were having some kind of meeting.

"Yuma Tsukumo and Astral" a grey cloaked entity were saying "They were stronger than I expected. We have no choice, but to defeat them ourselves". The being's eyes were glowing dangerly red now.

A,N: Well that was the end for Zexal 1 sadly. What do you think of my ending? LOL Although I like it, so... Now I know everyone as readers are surely eager to see the next part. Book 3 alias start on Zexal 2. Sadly I am sorry that you have to wait a little while. I am not beginning on that before I have ended my Gx series. I am at season 4, so hmm 12 episodes more or less left. How many chapters that are I don't know. I hope you do have some patience, and I will try to not let you wait too long. In the meantime read some of my other stories, or my friend 'Elements' story here on Quotev. She makes an epic Zexal story too. Thanks again for your support. See you in my Book 3 Choices through time and space. Will give you a link when that happens. 😉This is the song I used to symbol Zaira's journey. You can listen to it if you want to.
