Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Destiny: The Final Guardian (YuGiOh/ Spyro FanFic)

Chapter 31

Emptiness. That's all that surrounded Jordyn as she walked endlessly through the darkness.

"I guess this is it," she said sadly to herself. "My path's finally ended." She sighed. "Not exactly what I thought my day was going be like, but oh well. I just hope everything gets settled without me."

"Jordyn..."

She looked up in surprise to see a figure in the distance. Jordyn squinted her eyes to identify it and she ran up to meet it. Her eyes widened when she saw it.

"Ryo?!" She halted directly in front of him. The boy was staring at her sadly. "What are you doing here?"

He didn't answer. He sighed and continued to stare at her. Finally he asked, "Why? Why did you leave? How could you give up? On us? On yourself? On everything?"

Jordyn sighed sadly. "Ryo, I-"

He cut her off. "You failed us. Everyone. You gave up. You failed me. After you swore you never would fail another friend." Ryo's body suddenly illuminated. Jordyn watched in surprise. In his place, Yugi appeared with the same disappointed look in his eyes.

"You failed us. You failed me," he said as Ryo had. "You gave up." Ryo appeared next to him and they continued to say in unison, "You gave up. You left us. You failed us."

Jordyn's eyes widened as the rest of her friends appeared. They surrounded her in a small circle, staring at her in disappointment. They all joined in with Yugi and Ryo and continued saying the same thing repeatedly.

"You quit. You gave up. You failed us. You quit. You gave up. You failed us..."

Finally Jordyn couldn't take it any more and broke down crying. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! I don't want to fail you! I'm sorry!" They continued to chant, regardless of her reaction.

"...You quit. You gave up. You failed us. You quit. You gave up. You failed us. You quit. You gave up..."

Jordyn covered her ears and continued to sob. "NO! I DIDN'T! STOP IT! I'M SORRY! I'M SO SORRY!"

"...You failed us. You quit. You gave up. You failed us. You quit..."

"STOP IT! PLEASE, STOP!" Jordyn screamed. "I WON'T QUIT! I WON'T GIVE UP!"

"...quit. You gave up. You failed us..."

As they continued, an evil laughter sounded. Bakura's figure appeared above them, laughing cruelly. The Millennium Ring was glowing brightly and the glowing eye of Horus appeared on his forehead. His eyes turned red, his teeth suddenly sharpened into deadly sabers as the black horns and wings of Zorc formed on his body. His crazed laugh deepened into a dark, corrupted laugh. Jordyn stared at him in horror as the man she feared the most transformed into a monster. All the while, her friends chanted, oblivious to the transformation above them. Bakura finally stopped laughing and stared at Jordyn with a wild and crazed look in his eye. He smiled and joined in on the chant.

"...failed us. You quit. You gave up. You failed us. You quit. You gave up..."

Jordyn shut her eyes tightly and cover her ears once more, trying to block them out. "...stop it. Stop it. Stop it! STOP IT! I'M SORRY! PLEASE STOP!!!"

She shot up from her bed. Jordyn woke up panting and sweating. She shut her eyes. "It was just a dream. It's not over yet," she told herself. But she could still hear her friends' voices chanting...

She opened her eyes and looked around. "Where am I?" It appeared to be a small white room with only her bed and a small window across the room. She then noticed the wires to the heart monitor she was connected to. Not to mention the multiple bandages she was in. Her body still ached with pain, the worst was in her shoulder.
