Hope in the Shadows

Farewell

AN: Hi me again! No real Chatter for this time so I guess it's right to the story for us today. Don't get used to it though. ^^

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Yugioh Zexal. But I do own this plot.

Last time we learned that Shark feels like the others are hiding something for him. They say it's just a surprise trip they were planning to see the sunrise, but why does he think Yuma looks so sad?

I honestly can't remember the last time that I had ever felt this excited. Sure Most people would just see it as a little hike and nothing to get that exited over, but not me. After spending months in an underground cave with nothing but a little artificial light made by lava in a dormant volcano you start to miss feeling the warmth of the sun as it shines on your face. What's even better was that me and Yuma were hanging out again, Even if there was a couple extra people. Then Suddenly a thought hit me, " Yuma, How are you going to be able to see the sunrise since you're a vampire?

Yuma gave me a little sigh, " I'm an Eternal Shark not a vampire and Eternals aren't destroyed by the sun. The other types are destroyed by the sun because the mutation removes all of their pigment that protects them from the sun's rays. We mostly stay in the darkness of the cave to help protect ourselves from ant possible attacks from other Eternals like myself or the Elite in case they ever get to close for comfort. " Do you sparkle in the sunlight? " What!? No! God Shark, where would you ever get such a stupid idea? " Nowhere. ( I'm sorry but sparkly vampires are way to much. Go ahead and hate if you want to. )

We continued are little walk to the top of the mountain that was close to the cave we had been living in. The mountain was a little steep at some points but all together it was a pretty easy climb to get to the top. We were able to get up to the top just a few minutes before the sunrise actually started. It was so beautiful with it's steaks of purple, pink, orange, and red. That plus the fact that I haven't seen the sun at all in so long made it the most amazing thing I've ever seen.

Somehow even more amazing then finding out the friend you thought was dead for three years was actually alive, a type of super strong vampire called an Eternal, and taking care of two Fledglings that weren't Eternals now but could be someday. When exactly, did my life become so weird? I looked over to the others to see if they're having as much fun as I am but a surprised at what I see. They all look so depressed and quiet it makes you sad just looking at them. " Hey guys, what's wrong? "

They look at each other for a little while before Yuma finally speaks up, " It's just kind of sad that this is the last real time we'll do something like this together. " What does that mean, Yuma? " It means that it's time for you to go back Shark. Back to the Elite, your friends and your sister. You've been with us for a long time now and they're probably worried that you're dead or something. "

As much as I hated to admit it Yuma was right. Now that me and Marin were the only family we had left she was probably in a frenzy over the possibility of me being dead. And the Elite wasn't just a problem because they were worried about me, but because of what they might do. They could trying to find me and I might lead them right to Yuma and the twins. After getting their hand on Two different kinds of vampires they've never seen before I shudder to think what they might do. " I understand. By why bring me to the top of the mountain to tell me this? "

" For two reasons. One because we wanted to send you off with a good memory of us and two because of that. " He pointed down to the bottom of the mountain where there was a small town. " There's a train in that town that will get you close to the Elite Head Quarters. You can probably catch a ride to get you the rest of the way there. " So I guess this is good bye then. " No. Not good bye. Just farewell. We will always watch over you and I promise, we will see each other again. "

With that we all said our farewells and I started on my way and made it back to the Elite Head Quarters in about three days time.
When I got there I got quite the welcome. I was quarantined in a cell while they did a medical check up to see if I was infected by a vampire or not. Afterward I was said to be clear and to give the report on my whereabouts. I told them that I was injured by a Necrophile and after being saved had stayed to recover from my injuries. Technically it was true.

That was a few weeks ago. Now I'm in the recreational rooms that are used in between missions with the other six members of my teams. There's my sister Marin - with her long blue hair and eyes she's the only girl member on our team, Alit - with his dark brown skin, hair, and eyes is well trained physically but mental power is to be desired, Gilag - about the same as Alit only in a bigger, more muscled body, Mizal - with his long blonde hair is always being mistaken for a girl but should never be told that if you value your life, Durbe - with his strange silver hair is more book smart then physical strength but is great at battle plan, and last but not least Vector - an insane orange top whose joy comes from manipulating and destroying the things around him. He almost makes me feel sorry for the vampires. Almost.

At this point and time Vector was annoying me by trying to push for details on what happened when I was missing. I had told him more then a few times to leave me alone but he just wouldn't listen. He then started trying to poke me in the shoulder to try to annoy me into telling him. He annoyed me alright, but I didn't tell him any thing. Instead I used the knock out trick that Yuma taught me on Vector. First he just looked kind of surprised before falling to the ground unconscious. The others responded by hanging on me asking where I learned that from and begging me to teach it to them.

AN: This chapter was a lot longer then I thought it would be.
