Yugioh: The Hope of Six

Chapter 4 - Yugo's Dream Match

The atmosphere in the apartment couldn't be any more depressing. Everyone was quiet, very worried for Aki. Carly left earlier to meet the headline on time. After she had gone, Yugo and Rin were both told about Divine and his history with Aki and Yusei. They each tried, but no one present was successful in trying to cheer Aki up. Learning of Divine's escape from prison had made her very afraid. Not just for herself, but also for those he might target... including her friends. She was especially afraid that he might be searching for Yusei, to kill him.

During their Duel in Maiami City, Divine became convinced that Yusei had "poisoned her mind" and that he would "help her remember her true self". Aki had no doubt Yusei would be his primary target now. 'Yusei... I have to protect him. I must. But how?' She was just pondering this when the young man who's life she became so concerned of returned in a flash of gold light.

"Yusei!" Aki called out.

"You're back!" Yugo said with glee.

"What did you learn? Are the others okay?" Rin asked, sounding worried. Yusei nodded, smiling.

"Everyone is fine, including Yuya and Yuzu. They are all on their worlds now." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness." Ruka said softly.

"I'm really glad that they all got home safe." Rua said.

"So am I." Kiryu said.

"Me too." Sherry added.

"Did Ray had anything to say about our would be killers?" Jack asked. Yusei frowned.

"A lot was discussed. First things first, I brought someone back with me you guys should know about." Yusei said as he raised his Duel Disk.

"Like who?" Crow questioned. In that instant, the small green form of Windy had risen from Yusei's Disk, surprising the group. He waved at them.

"Hey there. I'm Windy. Nice to make your acquaintance." The Wind Ignis greeted.

"Wait, Windy? Isn't that the name of one of the Ignis you told us about?" Rin asked Yusei.

"Yes Rin. He will be living with us temporarily." He replied. After everyone introduced themselves, a curious Yugo walked over and examined Windy very closely.

"Huh. So this is an Ignis, eh?" He said, studying every angle of the little guy. Windy didn't seem to mind. "An actual A.I.. Just how smart are ya anyway?"

"My intelligence is more advanced than most computers." The Ignis replied.

"Cool!" Yugo exclaimed.

"It's nice to meet you Windy." Rin said. Windy nodded.

"The pleasure is mine, Rin." He replied.

"So why did Yusei bring you here? What about the other Ignis?" Rua asked. Windy looked down.

"It was Ray's idea to separate us, for our own protection." He replied sadly.

"From what?" Kiryu asked.

"I'll explain." Yusei said. And so he did. He revealed everything that was talked about on Cyberse World and what everyone was told to do. When he was done, hardly anyone could believe it all.

"No way! So the Airship was destroyed?!" Rua yelled in shock.

"Yes Rua. That Storm Protocol had done so to fool Zarc, E'Rah, and Lightning. Hopefully it worked." Yusei said.

"I don't freaking believe it! We never even got to ride inside it!" Yugo complained. He actually looked forward to traveling in it with Rin after seeing it days ago. Rin glared at him.
