Two days later, I was heading over to go pick up Yusei's friends with Vector.

"So, Zueki, what is your sexuality?" He asked out of the blue.

"Um, female???" I said, confused at his question.

"No, I mean like, gay, straight or bi." He replied.

"Oh. Right now I don't really know. I mean, I don't really like anyone." I said.

"So another question, since you have a girl in another dimension that is a different form of you, dating another girl, does that mean you'll date a girl eventually?" He asked.

My eyes widened. "How the fuck do you know about Zelena and Lexie?!" I asked.

"Oh, I have my ways." He said, smirking deviously.

We arrived at the old shed and saw no one at first. I assumed they weren't there yet, but out of nowhere, several people attacked us.

"What the fu-" I yelled as a man with dark blue hair wrapped a bandana around my mouth and tied me and Vector up.

"I'll ask this once. Who are you, and how did you find this place?" A man with brown and blonde hair pointed a gun at me.

"Your fucking savior." I mumbled.

"If you're my savior, then who am I?" The man asked.

"Why? Have you forgotten? Or are you just so full of yourself that a name doesn't matter?" I smirked.

The man walked closer to me. "Don't get smart with me. I will have this bullet go straight through your head." He said.

"Dude, I'm just gonna tell you, you don't want to do that." Vector said.

"Yeah, unless you want the Barian king to rip your soul out of your body, burn your body, and then leave it for the wolves." I said.

"Barian king?! Are you crazy or-"

"Shingo, let them go."

I felt the bandana get taken off and I saw a man with silver hair behind me. "Glad to see someone still has their manners." I mumbled.

"Please explain who you are." He said.

"My name is Zueki Tsukumo. I am the person sent here to pick you guys up and take you to camp. Oh, and this is my sidekick Vector." I said.

"Sidekick?! Excuse you!!!" He yelled.

"I'm sorry, did I fucking stutter?" I asked.

"If you don't mind me asking, where's Yusei at?" A guy with brown hair asked.

"He's back at camp with the others. Now everyone here needs to listen up." I said, gaining everyone's attention.

"Once you charge into this battle, there's no coming back. Eva and Hawkmoth will know who you are and will eventually come for you. So, by joining this mission, you put yourself at risk." I said.

Everyone looked at me with a determined face. "I see why you're the important one." The man with silver hair said to me.

"Um, can everyone please tell me your names? I kinda need to know that." I said.

"Alright. The one with brown and blonde hair is Shingo, and next to him with the red and green hair is Yuya. He's Shingo's boyfriend." The man with silver hair explained.

"The shortie with light blue hair is Sora, and the tall guy next to him with dark, blue-green hair is Shun. The two of them are dating as well."

"No we're not! Stop saying that!" Sora called over.

"Then stop flirting with each other!" A guy with brown hair said.

"That guy with the brown hair is Jaden, and his boyfriend Jesse is the one with the teal-ish hair. The two that look like twins are Yami and Yugi. They aren't actually related, other than dating. Then you have Yugo. He has blue and yellow colored hair.

Then you have me. My name is Reiji" He said.

"Alright. Well, you already know both me and Vector. Let's get everyone back to camp and we can make a plan or something." I said.

Suddenly, a portal opened and out stepped Lexie, Zelena, Valerie, two guys and Dalia.

Everyone got in a defensive state.

"Who are you?! And what-"

I cut Shingo off by grabbing him by the ear.

"These are my friends you idiot!" I said, clearly irritated.

"Ow! Okay! Okay! Let me go!" He pleaded.

I let Shingo go and hugged Valerie. "It's so good to see everyone again!" I said happily. "Who are the two stunning guys?"

"The name's Seto Kaiba, and no one calls my boyfriend stunning except me!" Kaiba said.

"I don't know. She sure picks up your slack." The other guy said. "Nice to meet you! I'm Joey Wheeler!"

"Watch it you mutt. Unless you want another punishment." Kaiba said.

"Okay! We're getting off topic! Any news about Shark and Yuma?" Valerie asked, quickly changing the subject.

"They're safely back at camp, which is where I'm taking everyone. We need to get ready for battle as quickly as possible." I said.

So, I took everyone back to camp. I was discussing strategies with some of the Barians when Shark came over.

"Zueki, I need to talk to you." He said in his serious tone.

"Not now Shark. I'm discussing battle strategies with the others." I said.

"That's the thing Zueki. I'm not letting you fight this time." Shark replied.

"What?!"
