Josh:Happy birthday Rei.
Yuko:You know it's still hard to believe I had a sister and didn't know about it.
Rei:Yeah same here. But who knew my sister would actually be cool.
Yuko:Yeah.
Kokomi:I'm just glad you girls get along now.
Rei:Hey Yuko.
Yuko:Hm?
Rei:I heard about your...OUR brother Zukio...and Magilou. I'm so sorry.
Yuko:Oh...its ok. They're in a better place.
Rei:If it's ok. I'd like to go see them.
Yuko:Huh?
Rei:Zukio was my brother too and you always said Magilou was your best friend. So...I'd like to pay my respects.
Yuko:Alright then. I'll take you later.
Rei:Are you sure? If it will make you cry I won't force you.
Yuko:No no it's fine. I'm sure. I haven't visited since our fight really.
Rei:Alright then but if you start crying we're leaving. I can't stand to see you cry. Makes me upset too.
Yuko:(Smiles)
Kukai:If you want I will go with.
Rei:Not trying to be rude Kukai but I'd like this to be between me and my sister and brother. If that's ok with you.
Kukai:Well alright. Yuko if you need anything you call me ok?
Yuko:I will.
Kukai:Good. (Kisses her on the cheek)
Josh:I think it'd be a good idea if you girls go on now and see them before it gets dark.
Yuko:Wanna go ahead and go?
Rei:Sure.
(At the Grave)
Yuko:We're almost there.
Rei:Alright.
Yuko:Hey bro, Magi. Sorry it's been a while. I brought Rei with me. She'd like to talk to you guys and pay her respects.
Rei:Hi Magilou, younger brother. I'm sorry I never visited. You guys probably never heard of me but...I wanted to pay my respects to you guys. (Tears up) If I'm being honest I kinda wish I could've met you guys...and helped defeat Koji before he killed you both. I'm sorry you both had to...
Yuko:Rei...
Rei: (Wipes tears) I'm sorry. If you guys can hear me. Zukio, I love you younger brother. I wish I could've watched you grow and I could've stopped you from turning evil somehow. Even though I know what really happened and why you did.
Yuko:Huh?
Rei:If only I would've destroyed the damn thing so you would've stayed my little brother and we could've reunited.
(The ground shakes)
Yuko:Whoa! What's that?!
Rei:Earthquake!
Yuko:No that! (Points at it)
(The Crystal appears)
Rei:No...
Yuko:Rei?
Rei:(Grabs Yuko's hand) We need to go now!
Yuko:What?
Rei:NOW! (Pulls Yuko home)
Yuko:Rei what is going on?
Rei:(Busts the door open) Dad! Mom! Kukai! Zedge! Rosemary!
Yuko:Dad!
Rei:Huh? Don't tell me...
Josh:Where have you two been?
Yuko:Dad you know we've been at Zukio and Magilou's graves.
Josh:Those two weaklings?
Yuko:Weaklings? Dad why would you...
Rei:Yuko we need to get out of here!
Josh:Take this! (Fires a blast at them)
Rei:(Fires a blast back) HA!
BOOM!!!
Yuko:Dad can't fire blasts like that! He usually uses his fire dragon magic Natsu shared with him years ago!
Rei:We're getting out of here!
Kukai:Your not going anywhere!
Kokomi:Prepare to die!
Rei:Damn! (Grabs Yuko and teleports)
Yuko:Woah!
Josh:Find them and bring them back alive!
(They appear at a pond far away from the Lab)
Rei:We'll be safe out here.
Yuko:Rei what is going on? Also what were you talking about when you were telling Zukio you should've destroyed the damn thing or whatever to keep him from turning evil?
Rei:Yuko...I...
Yuko:I want the truth. Now! Do you know what happened to them? And what happened to Zukio why he was evil before?
Rei:...
Yuko:Tell me!
Rei:Yuko...I
Yuko:NOW!!!!!
Rei:Fine. I'll tell you. A long time ago a crystal appeared. It appears every 10 years and turns our loved ones against us. That crystal is...the reason why our brother Zukio turned evil.
Yuko:Zukio...
Rei:The crystal is made of evil energy taking over anyone it can. It mainly targets our loved ones. If your wondering who made it. It was someone you've fought in the past. None other then...Seiko.
Yuko:What...? Seiko...wait!
(Flashback)
Tails:Turns out only 2 of them were created by Zukio. One wasn't. But for some reason I can't find out who it is that wasn't created by Zukio.
(Back to Present)
Yuko:(So Seiko was the one that wasn't created by the dark energy when Zukio was hit with my Kamehameha wave all this time.)
Rei:Seiko made plans to get rid of anyone she could so she could destroy the world or turn those people to her side to help her.
Yuko:So Seiko created that thing to make an army of her own. Is that it?
Rei:Yes. When you defeated Zukio the crystal was only subdued but when you beat Seiko it was destroyed but I'm afraid now it's back and its turning our loved ones against us. We can destroy it but...there's no promising that it will turn everyone back.
Yuko:What do you mean?
Rei:Worst case scenario if we do destroy it...it will either take their memories away or worse...kill them. Yuko?
Yuko:(Turns her around and slaps her) So you knew about this crystal all along!? You knew why Zukio was evil and why he did everything?! Why didn't you try to stop him?! Why didn't you at least try and destroy the crystal if you knew what happened?!
Rei:Yuko there was no way I could've done it alone! And I was scared too because like I said! It could've killed Zukio or erased his memories!
Yuko:How powerful is this thing?! Why couldn't you have done it alone?! You were talking like you could've at Zukio's grave!
Rei:Seiko knew what she was doing! She made it to where this crystal is more powerful and evil than your average material! But with your powers and my powers combined we can possibly destroy it together!
Yuko:What happens if we don't destroy it?!
Rei:Then it'll destroy everything. It could even destroy our entire world as we know it. Yuko:Then lets go destroy this damn thing! But can it do anything else?
Rei:It can bring back dead people but they'll be evil too.
Yuko:Oh no...that means...
Rei:Don't worry. If we're quick enough it won't revive an evil Zukio or Magilou.
Kokomi:There you are!
Yuko:Oh no.
Kokomi:I've been looking for you two!
Rei:Stay here. (Goes behind her and does a sleep chop to her neck)
Yuko:What did you...
Rei:Relax I just did a simple sleep chop.
Yuko:Well then we better hurry before she wakes up come on!
Rei:(Nods)
