The Missing Page
Xina stood in front of Martha's place. It was dark and eery. She sees that one of the lights were on downstairs through the window. Xina wonders, "I'm at Martha's place... But why? Why did my moon mark take me here?... And since when can I teleport to places?"
Xina walks up to the front door of the home and opens it. She walks in to see the kids smiling as they were looking up at someone. Xina couldn't see who it was since there was a wall blocking her view of the person. She continued to take a couple steps forward to finally see who the person was. Xina stops dead at her tracks in shock. It was Martha.
The kids look over to see Xina standing in the hallway. They smile as Taka says, "Xina! Martha's back!"
Martha looks over to see Xina. She smiles at the sight of her. "Xina," Martha lowly says.
"Martha.. You're back. Are you okay-" Xina says as she walked closer to her.
Martha lightly laughs, "Yes, Xina. I am fine. Thanks to you."
Xina furrowed her eyebrows at Martha in confusion. Xina questions, "Me?"
Martha then decided it should be best if the kids went to bed so Xina and her can talk. She tells them to get some shut eye as they were hesitant at first, but later complied. Once the kids were tucked in, Martha goes back down the stairs to see Xina sitting on the couch. She notices that Xina was anxious. Xina leg was bouncing as she fiddles with their fingers.
"Xina. What's the matter?" Martha asks as she walks into the living room, looking at Xina.
Xina doesn't look at Martha. She responds, "I-.. I don't know."
Martha questions, "You don't know?"
Xina continued to fiddle with her hands. "Right now, Yusei, Jack and Crow are dueling the last Dark Signer who happens to be Director Goodwin. He also happens to have his brother's Signer mark that he gave to him moments before Zero Reverse occurred..." Xina explains.
"And let me guess, you're worried about them?" Martha asks with a slight smile.
Xina responds, "Of course I'm worried... and.. I can't help them."
Martha then sits next to her on the couch. She sighs, "Why do you say that?" Xina doesn't respond to that as she remained silent. Martha speaks again, "Xina, you have helped them through all of this. You got yourself injured for their protection. You helped your friends. You helped the boys. So tell me why you think you can't help them now."
Xina thinks about it before saying, "Because I don't know who I am."
"What do you mean? You are-"
"Powerful? Uncontrollably incapable of my own powers that is still a mystery to me?" Xina says, interrupting Martha.
"I was going to say you are Xina, " Martha responds. Xina stayed silent. Martha then says, "Xina, you were the one who helped save everyone."
Xina looks over at Martha confused. "N-No, Yusei did. He's the one who defeated Roman," Xina tells her.
Martha shook her head. "Sure, Yusei defeated Roman, but you were the one who helped," Martha tells her. Xina had a confused look on her face which let Martha know that she had to explain. "Like you said Xina, you are indeed powerful. You can do many things that you're not aware of. Things that others see but you don't..." Martha paused before placing her hand on Xina's shoulder. Xina looks at her in her dark brown eyes and sees that she was serious yet proud. Martha continued, "Yusei, Jack, Akiza and the little girl Luna have the power to defeat the Dark Signers, but not enough to bring us back."
