Yuko:Do you know where it is?
Rei:I think so. It appears in a different place everytime! But I sense a huge power this way meaning if we keep going we should find it!
Yuko:Are there any forms we need to worry about?
Rei:Yes. Right now it's in it's base form purple but when it turns pink it'll bring back the dead but with evil energy but when it enters its final form red it'll be even more dangerous. It'll turn the whole world evil and destroy everything.
Yuko:So why didn't it do that a long time ago?
Rei:Seiko upgraded it.
Yuko:How do you know?
Rei:Back when I was still lost I saw it and tried to stop her but she was too strong. She even told me about the forms.
Yuko:You fought Seiko?
Rei:I tried to. I only landed a few blows but she was too powerful. I trained my ass off so I could beat her but then you did before I could get to her.
Yuko:Then we better hurry.
Rei:It changes to pink in 3 hours.
Yuko:What about red?
Rei:That will be in 10 hours.
Yuko:Well it's already been 12 minutes so we have plenty of time beforehand.
Rei:What do you mean?
Yuko:It might be a good idea to train ourselves up before we have to deal with anyone else. For all we know dad could have the rest out looking for us.
???:Not everyone.
Both:Huh?
Rei:Who's there?!
Yuko:Wait. I know that voice.
(Velvet appears)
Yuko:Velvet! (Runs to her and hugs her) your alive!
Velvet:Its horrible we all just out of nowhere teleported here and everyone turned against me. Even Laphicet. Of all people why Phi?
Rei:Its that crystal!
Velvet:(Sees it) What is that?
Yuko:From what Rei told me. It turns everyone against us and it's the reason why Zukio was evil too. Seiko created it a long time ago.
Velvet:So if that thing never appeared Zukio would've never been our enemy.
Yuko:But if we destroy it we won't have to worry. But from what I heard if we destroy it we can turn them back to normal. But if it goes wrong they'll either lose their memories or die.
Velvet:So we can destroy it?
Rei:With the 3 of us. It'll be just the amount of power we need if we hurry
Yuko:(Nods).
Velvet:Yuko. You...cut your hair.
Yuko:Yeah I know.
Velvet:I kinda liked it better long. But I like it short too.
Yuko:Hehe thanks Velv.
Rei:We can catch up later. We need to destroy that crystal before it transforms. Its already been 30 minutes.
Velvet:How long before it transforms?
Rei:It would transform in 3 hours and it's been 30 minutes so we still have a while.
Velvet:So who is she?
Yuko:My sister. I'll explain later come on.
Velvet:(Nods)
Kukai:So this is where you are?
Yuko:Oh no.
Velvet:Kukai don't you remember us?
Kukai:You will die!
Velvet:(Draws blade)
Yuko:Velvet wait! I think I can reason with him.
Rei:Yuko are you crazy? He'll kill you!
Yuko:No Rei. I know he's still in there somewhere. The Kukai I know would be able to get something like this out of his body. Maybe even with a little help. So I'm gonna try and help him.
Kukai:Grrr.
Rei:Doesn't look like we have much of a choice. Very well. Try and reason with him. But if it doesn't work out I'm kicking his ass.
Velvet:(Retracts blade) Be careful out there.
Yuko:I will. Thank you both.
Kukai:Foolish girl don't you approach me!
Yuko:Kukai stop please. It's me Yuko.
Kukai:Grrr...(charges blast)
Yuko:This isn't you. I know it. The Kukai I know is very sweet and loving. The Kukai I know loves me more than the word can even describe. I know you can fight this.
Kukai:(Pauses) Grrr...NO SHUT UP! I'LL KILL YOU THEN I'LL KILL YOUR FRIENDS!
Yuko:Kukai please. Try and remember. Its me Yuko. You promised me you would never leave me.
Kukai:What...?
Yuko:That's right. The day we got married we promised each other we wouldn't let anything happen to one another and that we would always protect each other. You've been there for me through thick and thin. When I was in a dark place you were my light. And I know that you can beat this...this...thing in your mind taking you over forcing you to wanna kill me. You would never hurt me I know it.
Kukai:Ugh...grrr...
Yuko:(Walks a little closer to him)
Rei:Yuko!
Velvet:(Blocks Rei)
Rei:Huh?
Velvet:Let her handle this.
Rei:(Looks at Velvet then back at Yuko)
Yuko:Its gonna be ok.
Kukai:Grrrr...ha! (fires a blast hitting Yuko)
Yuko:Ugh!
Bam!
Yuko:Gah!
Rei:Yuko!
Yuko:Its alright. I'm fine. (Wipes blood from her mouth and goes closer to Kukai)
Kukai:Stay back or I'll kill you!
Yuko:No you won't. You didn't use your full power in that blast. That shows me your still in there somewhere Kukai.
Kukai:Shut up!
Yuko:(Hugs him tightly)
Kukai:Huh? Wha...what the hell are you doing?! Your going to get yourself killed you fool!
Yuko:I'm not letting go of you. Nor am I giving up on you. Please don't give up. Fight it Kukai. I know you can do it. I know you can beat this thing inside of you my love. I love you and you know that. I know you do. And you know I'm gonna keep hugging you until you hug me back as the Kukai I know.
Kukai:Grrr...(Starts to remember seeing from when he met her to when he married her) Y...Yuko?
Yuko:That's right my love. Don't hold back! Keep fighting it! I love you Kukai. I always have and I always will.
Kukai:Get...the hell...out of MY BODY!!!!
Yuko:That's it Kukai you can do it!
Rei:Its working...
Velvet:Keep fighting it Kukai! Keep remembering!
Rei:Yeah! You can do it Kukai!
Kukai:Grrr...Yuko...get back!
Yuko:No I'm not letting go of you! I'll fight with you!
Kukai:Grrr...I...said...GET OUT OF MY BODY!!!!!!!
(An aura suddenly appears around them as a dark energy comes out of Kukai)
Kukai:HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
Velvet:What's going on?
Rei:The energy...its coming out of Kukai! Yuko don't let go of him!
Kukai:HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
Yuko:You can do it Kukai! Get that thing out of you!
Kukai:HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
(The aura suddenly turns gold as the last bit of dark energy comes out of him)
Kukai:Ugh! (Faints in Yuko's arms)
Yuko:Kukai...Kukai are you alright?
Kukai:(Wakes up) Yuko?
Yuko:Thank god your alright! (Hugs him tightly)
Kukai:What happened?
Yuko:You got taken over by a crystal.
Kukai:A crystal?
Yuko:I'll explain later. All that matters is that your ok now. I knew you could beat that thing I just knew it. (Kisses him deeply)
Kukai:(Hes shocked at first but falls into the kiss not long after)
Velvet:I knew they'd find a way through.
Rei:Hm?
Velvet:Those two love each other more than words can even show. It wasn't just Yuko that got to him. It was their love for each other.
Rei:Love?
Yuko:I love you so much.
Kukai:I love you too.
(The ground shakes and the crystal changes form)
Yuko:Huh?
Velvet:Its been 3 hours already?!
Rei:No! It's only been 50 minutes! It must've been that dark energy it absorbed from Kukai.
Yuko:It can absorb energy too?
Rei:Not that I knew of. Seiko must've powered it up once more before she fought you!
Kukai:Let me do what I can to help then!
Rei:No way. It drained all of your power!
Velvet:No it didn't I can sense he has power!
Kukai:The four of us will be able to destroy that thing! I know it!
Rei:Right! But we better–
???:There you all are.
Yuko:That voice...
???:We've been looking for you.
Yuko:No...Zukio...Magilou...
Kukai:They're alive?!
Rei:For now but the evil energy from the crystal is what did this!
Zukio:Hehehehe. Feels good to be back. Ain't that right my sweet?
Magilou:Right Zukio.
Yuko:No...my brother...and my best friend. Not only do I have to fight my brother but I have to fight my best friend in the whole world?
Rei:No. We'll destroy that crystal!
Zukio:No!!!
Yuko:Rei can you teleport us?!
Rei:I can try everyone grab on!
(They teleport to the crystal)
Yuko:We made it.
