Ryu was walking outside Aibo Academy just patrolling the grounds. Blaze was by his side confused.

Blaze: Ryu, you still haven't explained to me why we're out here. You even told Azure and Karma to stay behind.

Ryu: I don't know it's just... I have a really bad feeling.

They walked around with him really feeling on edge.

Ryu: 'Do I have a 6th Sense or something? Every time something serious is about to happen I get such a creeping feeling.'

???: Ok let's see what the dice say.

Ryu recognized the voice he heard immediately deadpanning.

Ryu: Oh you have gotta be kidding me.

Blaze: I know that voice.

They looked and saw Jin and Megumi.

Ryu: Ugh, Jin.

Jin: Oh Ryu, fancy seeing you here.

Ryu: Letting luck decide weather you win or lose huh?

???: You really live up to your reputation Jin Magatsu.

They turned to see Tasuku in glasses and a uniform with Stella in a similar uniform.

Stella: Tasuku! This is an undercover operation.

He threw off the disguise with Ryu deadpanning even more.

Ryu: -_- Operation failed then.

Stella: *Sigh* Hi Ryu, hi Blaze.

Tasuku: I understand your taking bribes to fix a Buddyfight.

Ryu: Hold up your doing what Jin?

Tasuku: I never could figure out why they called you the Uncrowned King, but I guess here it is huh?

Megumi: Well this is awkward.

Jin: You know my-

Ryu: Yeah I'm gonna have to cut this conversation short, come on Tasuku.

Tasuku: What?

He grabbed the boy wonder by the shoulder pulling him somewhere else.

Ryu: Also Jin, I suggest you actually start changing your ways. You won't feel any real satisfaction if you don't win yourself.

That's all he said before Stella followed them.

Tasuku: Ryu, what are you doing?!

Ryu: Tasuku I've just been really on edge lately.

Tasuku: On edge?

Ryu: You know as well as I do when I have a bad feeling something bad usually follows with it. That's mostly why I pulled you aside.

Stella: Wait, we were called here because a powerful Buddy Monster that wasn't registered as anyone's Buddy was here.

Blaze: I see. So you were correct Ryu.

Ryu: Looks like it. But listen, I want to ask you guys to let me handle it.

Stella: What?!

Tasuku: Ryu that's crazy! This is Buddy Police work, you can't just randomly take on a Criminal Fighter like this! This isn't your average street punk anymore. If you wanna help you can either just alert us or join the Buddy Police.

Ryu: Seriously Tasuku I have my reasons. I don't think there's a Fighter around at all, I would've seen him already since I went around the school about 3 times in the last 5 minutes.

Stella: No fighter? But how could that be?

Ryu: I don't know, but it's why I really want to do this. Tasuku.

Tasuku: Ryu, I know what your thinking but-

Ryu: I'm just saying that you right now, someone that can make cards reality, myself and Wolf included have to be careful where and WHEN you use it.

Tasuku: I know but...

Ryu: Don't worry I get you wanna help people, I do too, but why do you think I've stayed out of the Buddy Police?

Tasuku: You always said you weren't ready.

Finally Blaze spoke up.

Blaze: That's not the entire reason. Think about if you ever get restricted from using Future Force, you'll be at risk. Ryu's the only person that can help if it ever happens.

Ryu: If I joined the Buddy Police I'd just be limited by a standard code.

Tasuku: Ryu do you know what that makes you sound like?!

Ryu: A Vigilante, I know. But if that's what it takes to keep people safe, then so be it. I'm just gonna hope it doesn't come to that.

Tasuku looked at him before smiling a bit.

Tasuku: It's hard to believe there's a year gap between the two of us. Cause you seem more like you're older than me saying all that.

Ryu: Hey, I say what I think, and it just works. So, will you let me do this?

Stella: *Sigh* When you make this much of an argument it's hard not to let you. I'll have to turn a blind eye too, but just remember Commander I is going to be after you, not me.

Blaze: It's better that way. We'd be feeling guilty for years if we were responsible for you being fired.

Ryu: -_- Try like for life. Anyway, point us in the right direction.

Stella: Right.

They began to walk to where the signal was as both Azure and Karma heard the whole conversation. They both were pretty startled hearing what they did as Karma whispered to him.

Karma: *Whisper* We heard nothing Azure

Azure: *Whisper* You expect me to just forget I heard that the power of the cards-

Karma: *Violent Whisper* WE HEARD NOTHING!!!

She began to she him back and forth before he freed himself from her grip.

Azure: Geez, how can someone half a foot shorter than me have such a presence?

Talon: Never make Karma angry friend.

Ryu and Tasuku followed Stella. That's when the hairs on Ryu's neck stood up.

Ryu: DUCK!!!

He grabbed both Stella and Tasuku pulling them out of the way of black lighting.

Blaze: WHAT WAS THAT?!

Three Dragon like heads with a reddish black aura appeared in the air.

Ryu: 'The heck is up with that thing? Monster's usually never give me this kind of feeling of dread.'

Ryu quickly pulled himself back up as both Blaze and Jack became full size.

Stella: Wait, now it says two Monsters appeared!

Ryu: What?!

They looked and saw two portals trying to take Blaze and Jack. Ryu and Tasuku looked at each other and nodded before jumping with their Buddies.

Ryu: WE'LL BE GOOD!!

That was all they said before they were gullies pulled in the portals.

Blaze: Ryu, be careful.

Ryu stood on Blazes back nodding.

Ryu: I know.

They looked around trying to find some indication of where they were, but all they saw was a barren wasteland with dark skies.

Ryu: Where in the world are we?

Blaze: The land looks like Dragon World, but the skies are far to odd.

???: This is the Dark Land of Dragon World.

They looked around and saw a large Dragon that seemed similar to Ryu's Hellfire Dragon's.

Blaze: So it was you.

Ryu: No way... Hell Dragon General Inferno?

General: I see you know of me.

Blaze: Ryu, you better not be thinking-

He saw Ryu's excited grin.

Ryu: If I can add a Monster like him to my deck it'll have that one flaw fixed.

Blaze: -_- Why wouldn't you think that.

General: This place is for only Dragons to battle and enter among the ranks of Azi Dahaka. He would be quite thrilled to have a Dragon Lord to join them.

Blaze: Azi Dahaka?

Ryu: Well Blaze and I fight as a team, that's the end of it.

Blaze: Exactly.

Ryu took out his Core Gadget.

Ryu: FUTURE FORCE UNLEASH!!

Ryu once again was shrouded in the golden light as his hair grew longer.

Ryu: I Equip: Emperor's Hell Blade Caliburn!!

He equipped Caliburn and also activating his Buddy Skill.

Ryu: Let's go Blaze!

Blaze: Right!!

They both charged at the Dragon and it was surprisingly holding his own against the duo.

Ryu: 'Wait what?! So his power in the game doesn't correlate outside of it?!'

Blaze: Ryu watch out!!

General had swung his sword at an unprepared Ryu. He managed to get his sword up just in time but still got knocked into the ground from the force.

Ryu: Ow. Alright! Dragonic Shoot!!

He fired a blast at the Dragon who was busy too attacking to notice it coming. It hit him sending him off of Blaze making him furious. That's when he opened his mouth sending a stream of flames at Ryu.

Ryu: 'Ah crap shoulda seen that one coming.'

Before he could be hit Blaze wrapped a wing around Ryu grabbing him and taking the stream head on. They were both sent to the ground as Blaze uncovered him.

Ryu: BLAZE!!

Blaze: Y-You alright Ryu?

Ryu: Why'd you do it?!

Blaze: What kind of Buddy would I be if I let my best friend take such an attack?

Tears formed down Ryu's face looking at his injured friend.

General: Sacrificing yourself for a human? How low the mighty have fallen.

He rose his blade and swung it down. Before it could hit though Ryu had another card in hand. A bunch of dust kicked up clouding the field as it did. When the dust cleared up it was revealed that Ryu had ANOTHER Caliburn in hand.

Ryu: GRR!!

Blaze: A-Another one?!

Ryu: BLAZE!!!

Blaze looked at Ryu who was gritting his teeth.

Ryu: *Grunt* COME ON, I NEED SOME HELP! THERE'S ONE LAST ACE IN THE HOLE WE CAN USE!!

Blaze: Are you talking about Colossus Punisher?! Do you think it can work?

Ryu: There's only one way to find out!!

Blaze got up and tackled General Inferno. That's when Ryu put both Caliburn's to his side.

Ryu: Ready Blaze?

Blaze: Always. Time to make a major bang.

He brought out a card holding it out and gripping his right arm with this left.

Ryu: Yeah!! I CAST!!

Flames erupted from the two as the massive sword appeared above them.

Ryu: IMPACT!!

It lit on fire as the General was shocked seeing this.

General: Human and Monster powers combining into one?

It went down towards him as Ryu swung the card down almost like a sword.

Ryu: COLOSSUS PUNISHER!!!!!!

It planted into the ground creating an explosion and a gash in the land. When the smoke cleared it revealed the opposing Dragon to be on the ground.

General: Forgive my insolence, I had never realized that a humans and monsters powers could result in power like this.

Ryu: Anything is possible.

General: I now know that. My blade now belongs to you young master.

He glowed before shrinking into a card and flying into Ryu's hand.

Hell Dragon General Inferno.

Size: 3

Power: 9000.

Defense: 6000.

Critical: 2.

Call Cost: 2 Gauge and 1 Hand Card.

Generals Spirit: After being destroyed, Hell Fire Dragons gain 2000 Defense.

Ryu: And with him, The Hell Fire Dragon's have a new General.

The two were soon sent back to their world.

Ryu: We're back, but Blaze, who's Azi Dahaka? You seemed to recognize the name.

Blaze: Well, up till now I didn't think he existed.

Ryu: Huh?

Blaze: Supposedly he's a monster from Darkness Dragon World.

Ryu's eyes widened hearing that.

Ryu: Did you say Darkness Dragon World?
