Ruby nodded and watched as Yusei leaned over and kisses Ashleigh, much to Yugi's disgust. Ruby walked forward and watch to see what will happen. Ashleigh's eyes fluttered, opened, then interacted that she's going to be sick. Ruby held up the bucket and the poor girl puked. When she withdraw from the bucket, Ruby got a shock.
It was black blood. |
"What was that?" Yusei asked. He was fully aware of Yugi glaring at him. Ok...this is awkward... he thought.
|
"This is not good' Ruby said. Then there was a laugh.
"I knew it wasn't going to work" said a voice. Ashleigh motioned the bucket again. The others turned to see her darker half in the corner. "And to think you were going to fool me" she said. |
"You again," Yugi snarled. "Why don't you just leave us alone?!"
|
"Why should I?" Dark Ashleigh said, then thought.
"I make you a deal. Hand over the girl and we'll leave you alone for 2 weeks" she said. |
"Not on your life." Yugi replied. "Or whatever you call it."
|
"Suit yourself. Oh by the way, it's not the angels who sent that message. It was me, and poisioned her in the process, hence the black blood" Dark Ashleigh laughed, "And I only have the antidote."
|
"You...." Yugi growled, his aura flaring. He looked down when he felt a hand on his arm.
|
"Don't worry, I got this covered" Ashleigh said and used her magic to rope the antidote in her darker half's hand and pulled it in.
"What? How could you?" she asked. "It's only an illusion, a demon of mine. You cast a spell to think you are my Dark Half" she said and sprinkled it over the black blood. As the power hit, it turned back to a dark red. "One of the side effects" she said and sprinkled it on herself. When that was done, she blasted the demon. It shrieked as it burnt. Ruby, Yugi and Yusei unwrapped the bandages and cleaned off the blood. "The first part is still the same, but the second part says 'We think it's time to tell you our plan.' And about time too" she said. |
"I'll say." Yugi said, sitting back. He shot Yusei a glare. "I'll get back at you later."
|
"And my mouth has a dead taste in it" Ashleigh said and looked at the same direction as Yugi.
"Yusei.....did you kiss me?" she asked. |
"I wish I didn't have to...." Yusei said. "Because now there's two people who are going to kill me. And one of them is in this room."
|
"Make that three" Ashleigh said.
"Wait! He didn't have a choice!" Ruby exclaimed. Suddenly, a blast of white light appeared. When it cleared, a group of Arch Angels appeared. "Uh oh....." Ruby said. |
"I take it this is an 'oh crap' moment." Yusei said, standing.
"More like 'oh shit'." Yugi replied, rising as well. "Yugi Mutou. Yusei Fudo. Ashleigh Mutou. Apprentice Ruby." One of the Arch Angels said. He had dark blue wings, and eyes and hair to match. He was wearing a white robes with gold braiding down the collar and around the sleeves. "We are the four Arch Angels. I am Uriel." "And I am Gabriel." A second said, this one with soft green wings to match his eyes and hair. His robes were black with silver braiding. |
'I am Lanchia" said the third (and the newest). Her hair was done in 6 plats with purple hair, eyes and wings. Her robes was embodied with copper coloured threads on top of white.
"And I am Merkia" said the forth. Her hair was a soft pink as her wings and eyes. Her robe was rosy red, embodied with bronze thread" "I would love to stand in the moment, but my legs are bleeding and I have no idea why" Ashleigh said. "So, what brings you here?" Ruby asked, who placed the bucket of blood down on the ground. |
"We are here to tell you our plans." Uriel said. "I am the head of the Arch Angels, and Gabriel is directly under me. Followed by Merkia and Lanchia." He indicated each angel. He nodded to Yusei. "It is good to see that you are back form the world of te dead."
|
The two boys looked dumbstrucked.
"Well, they're Arch Angels. What do you expect?" Ruby said. "Um, Uriel, am I descent to become an Arch Angel?" Ashleigh asked. |
"Yes," Uriel replied. "But, I fear that soon Kaimiri will discover that you are not the only Ultimate Shard."
|
"What?" Ashleigh gasped,"Who also have the ultimate shard?"
|
"Your husband, Yugi Mutou." Gabriel said. "And like Uriel said, it is only a matter of time until Kaimiri discovers that fact, and comes after your husband."
|
Ashleigh froze.
"It-it-it can't be" she said,"PLEASE tell me that isn't true!" "Sadly it is" Ruby said, "But you are still part of the plan. It will be a matter of time that Kaimiri will also find out that Yugi isn't the one he wants. But in the meantime, this is a perfect cover for you until the remanding weeks are up. Right Gabriel?"Ruby said. |
"Correct," Gabriel replied. "It is certain, unfortunately, that one of you will die. At first we thought it would be you for sure, but now that it has been confirmed that Yugi is the second Ultimate Shard, it is possible either of you will die."
"Damn," Yugi said. "That's what was meant by inevitable." |
"I'm not going to let you die in my place Yugi" Ashleigh said.
|
"Ashleigh," Yugi said. "I've said this before, and I mean it; I'll do anything to protect you."
|
"And I don't want you too. You already do so much already and it's time for you to take a step back" Ashleigh replied, "I want to deal with it myself.'
"Sorry Ashleigh, but you're not going to do anything about it. You will die but in Kaimiri's eyes, you already are" Merkia said, "Yugi really cares for you, and will do anything for you. But the orginal plan stands and that's why we are here." |
