Miyuki’s inner strength.

Chapter 1 - Hidden feelings

It all started one day when Tsukasa Hiiragi, Konata Izumi, Kagami Hiiragi, and Miyuki Takara are enjoying their first day summer vacation together, hanging out and not having to worry about high school except for some occasional homework after finishing half of their third year since the beginning of school year begin in April. Konata and Kagami recently got together two months ago after dancing around their feelings for each other for a while, which is a story on another day. Konata was at Miyuki’s house, playing her video game whilst everyone else watched her. Miyuki, Tsukasa, and Kagami were behind Konata watching her play. Miyuki wasn’t looking at the game but was looking at Tsukasa who was interested in said game.

“You can do it Kona-Chan!’ Tsukasa said excitedly as she watched the final boss fight unfold.

“I am extremely low on items! Just one more hit and it is game over for me!” Konata said while she is dodging attack after attack with ridiculously small openings for her to get counterattacks in.

“Why play this game at all? I heard this is an incredibly stressful game genre to play, let alone finish Konata. I recall a meme made and said, “when a game is hard it refers to this game you play.” Kagami said having slight interest.

“It is the result of dopamine from pride and accomplishment. This genre is infamous for being extremely hard but is said to be the most rewarding.” Miyuki responded politely as she turned back to the game.

The twins look at Miyuki in amazement as Konata smirks at the fact that Miyuki is studying how stuff relates to Video games.

“So, Kona-Chan plays this game because she enjoys the reward from constant trial and error. It sounds like life itself Yuki-Chan.” Tsukasa responds as she ponders with a hand under her chin while Miyuki smiles at how perceptive she has become. Miyuki always knew that Tsukasa was smarter than she lets on.

“That is correct Tsukasa-San. Life itself is all about trial and error. It is how you learn from them that helps you overall while also helping you grow.” Miyuki said gives Tsukasa a smile then turns away to hide a blush forming. Tsukasa smiles at the praise.

It took an hour-long battle with Miyuki and the twins gasping with an awfully close hit, but eventually Konata finally defeated the final boss.

“I finally beat the final boss and with enough time to spare to watch a film too!” Konata said with pride and accomplishment. Kagami gives her an enthusiastic kiss instantly.

“You have done well Konata, and I think I might understand why you play this type of game. You earned that kiss for all your hard work. The film idea sounds nice. Something short I say.” Kagami said with a smile.

“What should we watch that’s short enough?” Tsukasa asks, pondering the question.

“I know just the film if everyone is alright with that. It’s a film made in a unique style on animation. The film was from the United Kingdom.” Miyuki responded with a smile as she took out a DVD from her collection to show her friends.

Tsukasa looks over the film then says “Wallace & Gromit the Grand Adventures? I had never heard of this film before Yuki-Chan. What is the film about? It must be good if you recommended it.” Miyuki blushes at the compliment from Tsukasa.

“So, the film is a collection of three Claymation shorts about a guy who is an inventor and his dog who does not speak getting involved doing stuff, like going on a crazy adventure or stopping a villain.” Miyuki politely responded.

“From what I understand it takes time and effort to make Claymation films if I am not mistaken Miyuki-San. I do remember hearing about these two and always wanted to give it a watch.” Konata said with excitement.

“That is correct Konata-San. It does take time and effort because you use a camera to take a photo than move the clay bit by bit and take another photo. It’s to give off the illusion that the clay in the films move by themselves. I do find the process very fascinating.” Miyuki responded with a smile. Miyuki started calling Konata by her first name with a San by request a month ago since they are friends.

“It does sound fun to watch and seems short enough to at least watch one of these. Let’s put it on.” Kagami said with a smile.

They put the movie in, and Miyuki picks the very first of the three that involves the man and his dog going to the moon in a rocket thinking said moon is cheese. They were all laughing, gasping, and even smiling at the wholesome parts of the film at points. It eventually reached the end.

“Yuki-Chan i really loved it. The man getting cheese from the moon. The dog looked like he said a whole lot with his expressions.” Tsukasa said with a smile then had a hand under her chin than asks “What are bank holidays though? The man had mentioned once, but this is a first time I heard about it.”

“I am glad you loved it Tsukasa-San. The dog’s expressions speak volumes indeed. As for what a bank holiday is, I will gladly answer that. Those are days called in the United Kingdom as all public holidays declared by law. Banking closes for business on those days. It is like our public holidays here. I hope that helps.” Miyuki says politely with a smile.

“Yuki-Chan... that is amazing how much you know and are willing to share with us. It does help me understand that the United Kingdom’s bank holidays are just regular holidays we have. I do want to watch the rest of these films in the future. This first short film was funny and had the most sweetest moments I have ever seen in a film. Thank you, Yuki-Chan, for sharing with us.” Tsukasa said with a smile as her eyes glitter.

Miyuki smiles at the compliment that Tsukasa given to her. “It is my pleasure Tsukasa. I am always willing to share what I learn with all of you.”

For a long time, she felt strong feelings for Tsukasa to the point she’s fallen in love with her but has been afraid to say anything not wanting to risk losing her. It doesn’t help that Miyuki has wholesome dreams about the short purple haired girl. Her thoughts being ‘If only I can just tell Tsukasa-San how I feel. She is just so cute, innocent, and wonderful. She is smart in her own way and applies it that fits her. She is someone I just want to protect and hold.’

Tsukasa has had the very same thoughts about Miyuki of being in love with her for a long time. She has wholesome dreams as well about the tall glasses wearing pink haired girl. Her thoughts to herself being ‘Yuki-Chan is just so smart, kind, beautiful and even her hugs are just warm. When she embraces me, it is like no one can ever hurt me. What is not to love about her? If only I could tell her how I feel.’

Konata and Kagami are watching on the side a little annoyed that Miyuki and Tsukasa are just dancing around their feelings especially since they are not being subtle about it. It also does not help that they learned from both about their feelings for each other.

Kagami whispers “Konata this is just painful that my sister and Miyuki dancing around their feeling for each other. I hope we were not as bad as they were before we got together.”

Konata whispers back “Yeah Kagami, it is starting to get annoying, and I’m just tempted to make them confess at this point. If Miyuki-San just admits her feelings, her Moe points go up by 50%. As for us being this bad I would say no, but it got close to this.” Konata was brainstorming on how to get them to admit their feelings.

Kagami just sighs and whispers “Can you not make an anime or a video game reference for one day Konata? I do agree they both need to do something about their feelings for one another and soon.”

Tsukasa then gets up off the ground to grab her shoes then puts them on and says, “Hey Sis and Kona-Chan, I am going outside for a little bit to get some fresh air.” She starts to walk to the door.

Kagami gently stops Tsukasa and with concern says “Tsukasa I don’t feel comfortable that you are going outside by yourself. I feel more comfortable if someone else goes outside with you.”

Miyuki gets on her feet and walks towards them and says “I can go with Tsukasa-San, so she is not alone. I could use fresh air myself anyway.” Miyuki is already grabbing her shoes to put them on.

Kagami nods at that and says “I feel better knowing that you are with my sister Miyuki-San. Be careful you two.” Miyuki and Tsukasa both nodded with a smile than walked out of the door then closed it behind them.

Konata gets on her feet with a smile and says “I see we didn’t have to do anything in the end. Did you just happen to know that Miyuki would go outside with Tsukasa?” Konata smirks after assuming.

Kagami knowing that she’s been caught red handed smiles and says “I am really considered for my twin sister, and I don’t want her to go alone, but I won’t lie that I knew that Miyuki would be willing to go with her being the kind hearted person she is. It is a way to see if they finally talk about their feelings. I just hope they finally do so otherwise we will have to resort to your plan.”

Konata had her arms behind her and asks, “Want to spy on them just to make sure?”

Kagami sighs, but relents and says “Alright, but if we get caught it is your fault, Konata!”

Konata gives Kagami a quick kiss and then says “Well don’t worry about it. They won’t know we are there listening in on them.” They then put their ears to the door to listen in only to not hear any sounds.

Will Miyuki and Tsukasa finally admit their feelings? What will unfold?

Chapter two — Confessions

Miyuki and Tsukasa are sitting on a bench close to Miyuki’s house that is in the shade as the sun was setting. Tsukasa hugs Miyuki who hugs her back which, Tsukasa smiles at how safe she feels in that embrace that Miyuki always gives her. Miyuki just loves the warmth from the hugs Tsukasa gives to her.

“Yuki-Chan... Thank you for wanting to come out with me. I understand why Sis doesn’t want me to be by myself. I’m glad you are the one who came outside with me.” Tsukasa said as she gives Miyuki her signature innocent smile that just melt Miyuki’s heart.

“Tsukasa-San, you’re welcome. I needed some fresh air myself and I didn’t want you alone outside by yourself. I am glad that you are glad. I will always be there for you.” Miyuki gives her own signature smile that melts Tsukasa’s own heart.

It is just getting harder and harder for both to hold back their feelings for each other. Meanwhile over in a bush by Miyuki’s house Konata and Kagami are in a shrub disguise looking with binoculars. The reason was that Tsukasa and Miyuki were too far away to hear from behind the door.

Kagami sighs, takes off her binoculars for a second to look at Konata and says, “While I understand hiding in the bush and the binoculars, but can you please tell me why we’re in these stupid shrub disguises Konata, especially we’re hiding in a bush? I look ridiculous!”

Konata was unfazed by the question and said “Kagami… it’s to sell the idea that we are well hidden, and I see it in a lot of anime that those who wish to hide must have shrub disguises. It’s to make sure they don’t know they’re being spied on. This is your sister’s love life at stake. The setting is perfect too, especially with the sunset as they’re both sitting on the bench. I bet it would be nice if Miyuki became a sister-in-law to you.” She then smirks at the thought of a wedding between Miyuki and Tsukasa.

Kagami just groans and facepalms and then says “You just watch way too much anime for your own good Konata you know that. Yes, my sister’s love life is at stake. I will admit the setting IS romantic for them, while the idea of them getting married as well as having Miyuki as a sister-in-law sounds nice too, HOWEVER that is way too soon to even assume that you know especially when we’re still in high school. They still need to confess first before we can even talk about marriage.” She puts the binoculars back on and continues to watch.

Back over at Miyuki and Tsukasa on the bench they both just are sitting on the bench watching the sun as it sets while they are deep in thought wanting to say something to the other about their feelings. It is getting to a point they just can’t hold back anymore.

Miyuki and Tsukasa both turn toward the other then say at the same time “Yuki-Chan, I have something I need to tell you! / Tsukasa-San, I have something I need to tell you!” They both giggle at that.

Tsukasa with a kind smile says “Yuki-Chan you can go ahead.”

Miyuki with a smile says, “No you can go ahead first Tsukasa-San.”

Konata and Kagami both just completely facepalm at this situation in frustration being so tempted to just rush over there and help them but they had to wait since Miyuki and Tsukasa need be the ones to tell their feeling to each other regardless of if it’s painful to watch.

Tsukasa decides to do something that is considered bold to her. She gently grabs Miyuki’s right hand with her own left hand who blushes at that jester, but gently squeezes back.

Tsukasa is happy that her bold idea gives Miyuki such a reaction then she says “Yuki-Chan… We’ve known each other for a while now since we met in our first year in high school. We spent time together doing homework, studying, and watching films together. We became best friends with each other and trusted each other to be honest with one another.”

Miyuki with a nod and genuine smiles says, “Take your time Tsukasa-San.”

Tsukasa takes a deep breath then continues “Whenever we hug, I just feel safe in your embrace like no one will ever hurt me and I never want to leave your embrace. Your smile is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. You are so smart, kind, and extremely helpful. You are also very pretty if not beautiful even. Your long thick and wavy pink hair just feels so soft to touch. Those wise and caring purple eyes you have…  I can get lost in them, and those glasses you wear accentuate your beauty. Your voice is something that I enjoy listening to.” All the compliments hit Miyuki like a brick and now her face is full of blush. Tsukasa looks into Miyuki’s eyes while silently hopeful that her feeling will be reciprocated.

Tsukasa notices Miyuki’s red face and starts to feel hopeful and continues “I’ve developed feelings for you over the time we known each other. I was afraid to tell them for a while, but seeing sis and Kona-Chan getting together made me hopeful.”

Konata and Kagami are smiling that Tsukasa took the leap of faith. Kagami whispers “Come on Tsukasa. You can do it.”

Tsukasa gives Miyuki’s hand a gentle squeeze and says as her eye start to water “I can’t hold these feelings back anymore before they explode. I... I... I... I love you Miyuki Takara! I have been in love with you for a long time and was just afraid to tell you, fearing I will lose you. I don’t expect you to return my feeling, but I wanted you to know. You are just so amazing. How can I not be in love with you? Meanwhile I’m only just a plain airhead.” Tsukasa looks down, afraid of Miyuki’s answer, tears falling from her face.

Kagami and Konata high five over that fact that Tsukasa finally told Miyuki her feelings. They are just waiting for Miyuki to finally do the same.

Miyuki is stunned at Tsukasa’s confession then smiles knowing that she’ll return her feelings. It truly hurts Miyuki’s feelings knowing that Tsukasa thought so low of herself. Miyuki knew what she had to do and said “Tsukasa-San, can you please look at me? I have some things that I want to say to you as well and I want you look me in the eyes as I tell you.” Tsukasa looks back up at Miyuki as asked.

Miyuki smiles at her and says “Now it is my turn to tell you Tsukasa-San. I want to thank you for telling me how you felt, it shows how brave you truly are, and it must have been extremely hard of you to do. I am very touched that you truly felt that way about me.”

Miyuki’s face then turns serious, and she uses her left hand to put on Tsukasa’s right shoulder to gently squeeze it then continues “I will not have you talk down about yourself because you are not plain, and I never want to hear you talk about yourself like that again! I never saw you as an airhead nor I ever will. You are amazing in your own way. Anyone regardless of gender would be extremely lucky to have someone like you as their girlfriend.”

Tsukasa was stunned at what Miyuki told her and just nodded in understanding.

Miyuki smiles then continues “You are cute, innocent, and just wonderful. You make amazing food and have such wonder that just brings a smile to my face. You are smart in your own way that fits you. Your shoulder-length, light purple hair is amazing and soft to touch. Your yellow headband with a bow just compliments your hair and your personality. Your blue-violet eyes are always a blessing to look at. Your smile is just adorable and makes my heart melt. Your voice is something that I enjoy hearing that you are just so carefree and wholesome. I hug you not only because you give warm hugs, but because I just want to protect you. I’ve felt intense emotions for you for such a long time that I want to explode at this point.”

Miyuki takes a deep breath and continues “I love you too Tsukasa Hiiragi more than anything! When you told me that you love me back, it made me feel I can take on anything so long as I have you to support me. I want to kiss you. I want to hold you. I want to smile at you taking on the good and the bad together. I promise you that I will never abandon you or will never take you for granted because you deserve to be loved. I promise to protect you from anyone that dares harm you. My heart tells me that you are the one for me.”

Tsukasa gives her biggest smile as she starts back crying tears of joy and hugs Miyuki who moves into a hug then says “I am just so happy right now. Miyuki, that is the kindest thing anyone ever told me. Thank you for loving me back even if the odds were against me. I always feel safe with you. I want to kiss you. I want to hold you. I want to smile at you taking on the good and the bad together. You always keep your promises. I know I will never abandon you nor will I take you for granted. I promise to protect you from anything that wants to hurt you. You deserve to be loved as well. My heart tells me that you are the one for me as well. I love you so much Miyuki. I really do.”

Miyuki sheds joyous tears of her own as she gently strokes Tsukasa’s hair then gently whips her tears and says “You’re welcome, Tsukasa. I am glad you feel safe in my embrace, and I will make sure you always feel that way. I’m just so happy, today is the day we will forever protect each other.”

They pull away from the embrace to look at one another with the biggest smiles on their faces. They both slowly lean their heads together. Their lips met, sharing their first kiss as they felt the emotion of one other with the setting sun. They pulled away with a smile. Tsukasa cuffs Miyuki’s cheek with her left hand while Miyuki cuffs Tsukasa’s check with her right hand.

Tsukasa smiles and says “Wow. My first kiss with the one I love.”

Miyuki smiles as well and says “Wow indeed Tsukasa. Our first kiss we gave each other, and I loved it. Is it ok if I give you another?”

Tsukasa excited as her eyes shine in delight says, “Yes please Miyuki!”

They shared another kiss which they held that kiss for as long as they could until they had to breathe. They kissed repeatedly for a good three times until they just held each other with a smile on their faces for a little while they looked back at one another.

Miyuki says with a smile “Will you be my girlfriend Tsukasa?

Tsukasa says with a smile “Only if you will be mine.”

Miyuki says with a smile “Yes!”

They both sealed the deal with a tender kiss putting their foreheads against one another while looking into each other’s eyes.

Meanwhile over at Konata and Kagami they saw the entire thing unfold. They are happy that they both finally confessed, they are amazed that Miyuki felt such devotion to Tsukasa and are stunned by how many times they kissed.

Konata, satisfied at what happened, says “I think that we’re good on spying on them Kagami. I am glad they finally confessed. That is so very Moe of them.”

Kagami smiles at that saying “I am glad they are finally together as well. Who knew that Miyuki is good at giving a pep talk? It is extremely sweet that they want to protect each other. I am glad we don’t need to spy on them anymore because I am tired of hiding in a bush in a shrub disguise. Let’s head inside Konata. I will admit they are very Moe in this case.” Konata nods at that. They share a kiss themselves and head inside.

Miyuki felt happy to finally have Tsukasa as a girlfriend. She thought to herself as she strokes her girlfriend’s hair gently as she smiles ‘I am very thankful that Tsukasa loves me back. I promise I will never let anything happen to my girlfriend and I’ll love her to the best of my abilities treasure her.’

Tsukasa felt happy that Miyuki is finally her girlfriend. Tsukasa is gently touching parts of the taller girl’s hair while enjoying having her own hair gently stroked by the one she loves as she thought to herself “Thank you to the almighty and the new year fortune for having Miyuki love me back. I promise to always be there for you Miyuki.”

Things look very hopeful for the two of them and they felt unstoppable together. Little did she know that there would be something that would put Miyuki to the test of their brand-new relationship with Tsukasa.

What will unfold for that will test Miyuki?

Chapter three - The kidnapping

    One month has passed since Miyuki and Tsukasa admitted their feelings for each other. They couldn’t be happier as a result. They were very affectionate toward each other whenever they got together. They would call each other by their first name without the honorifics with occasional pet names. For Miyuki she sometimes called Tsukasa either Tsu, rarely Kasa and sometimes just love, while Tsukasa sometimes called Miyuki either Miyu, Yuki or rarely Mimi. Miyuki calls Tsukasa her shrine maiden while Tsukasa calls Miyuki her angel. They hugged a whole lot, stoked each other’s hair gently, kissed each other tenderly, and even fed each other food. They would even cuddle each other as Miyuki had her arms around Tsukasa gently. When they slept over at the other’s place, they fell asleep holding each other. Miyuki made a promise to Tsukasa that she would protect her from anyone that dares to harm her. Tsukasa made the promise as well to make sure to be there for Miyuki no matter what happens as well as to protect her. They are a very wholesome couple. During the summer festival and the beach trip they both got to enjoy themselves with their friends. There were benefits for them since they got together over the past month.

    Tsukasa’s sleep pattern greatly improved because she was able to get up in the morning with no problems thanks to Miyuki as something to motivate her to get up in the mornings. Miyuki enjoys singing to Tsukasa which to her is the voice of an angel and helps if she ever feels sad or scared. Tsukasa became more responsible and earned a new cell phone which she added everyone she knew to her contacts. Miyuki started watching anime and playing console video games with encouragement from Tsukasa as well as bonding together over it. Miyuki now understands why Konata, Kagami and Tsukasa enjoy them. There is one anime where a group of girls go camping while at school. Miyuki learned that Tsukasa does have self-esteem issues and terrible insults cut into her deep, making her not feel good enough, but Miyuki was helping her build it up with her encouragement and reassurance. Tsukasa went with Miyuki to the dentist as well as the eye doctor to show moral support making those visits more pleasant even if she still dislikes going. Miyuki even feels comfortable with Tsukasa helping with eye drops for her eyes. They are a team in their relationship.

    Tsukasa told her parents and her siblings which were happy for her dating someone like Miyuki who left a positive impact on her. Miyuki told her mom directly and called her father over the phone since he travels for work. They both are incredibly supportive since they both do love Tsukasa. Konata and Kagami have been incredibly supportive. Miyuki’s childhood friend Minami Iwasaki is incredibly happy for Minami and hopes she finds someone herself when she enters high school in April which Miyuki reassures her that she will, when the time is right. When Konata told her cousin Yutaka Kobayakawa who will be starting high school in April about Miyuki and Tsukasa who she hopes will finds someone special like them someday. Originally Konata and Kagami tried to keep on playfully teasing the couple for a little fun, but instead backfired hard when the couple were just being wholesome as well as bold causing Konata and Kagami to drop their mouth in awe. 

    Konata whispers after shaking off the awe “I must say Kagami, at this rate Miyuki’s Moe points will go past 100%! I have never seen anything like this before in any anime or video games. They are just too cute, too adorable, and too wholesome! It isn’t fair. They’ll end up as the best couple material! They kinda remind me of Rin and Nadeshiko from that camping anime!”

    Kagami shakes off her awe and whispers back “They are bolder with their affections than us and that is saying something. While I would just groan at the anime and gaming reference you just made, I’m too shocked to care right now. They are just too cute and wholesome. I agree that they are the best couple material. I’m a little jealous at how they can just be bold. We need to be a little bold ourselves. Maybe we should try to be Moe ourselves.” 

    Konata and Kagami share their own kiss to show how much they care for each other too. Miyuki just holds Tsukasa and hums a tune to her. She then gives Tsukasa a kiss on the top of her head causing her to smile. Tsukasa gives Miyuki a Yellow bow that matches her own. Miyuki gladly puts it around her hair in a ponytail which causes Tsukasa to smile. Tsukasa puts her hair in a short ponytail which Miyuki just finds extremely adorable.

    Later, at Miyuki’s house she shared a secret with Tsukasa that she had never told anyone before. She is a fan of Yu-Gi-Oh! The anime of the sub as well as the dub and the trading card game itself. She even showed her the deck she made with the money she used; her card sleeves were the same color as her hair.

    Tsukasa felt touched that her girlfriend told her this and said with a smile “That’s wonderful you’re enjoying the anime and the card game. I know I’m a fan of Melffy type myself and I may also have a deck on them I made. The deck you have just fits you so well Yuki just like how we fit so well together.”

    Miyuki says with a smile “Thank you, Tsu. Melffy are among the most adorable monsters, and they really fit your personally.”

    They both embrace each other for a bit then give each other a tender kiss.

    Tsukasa pulled out an old card out of her pocket and gives to Miyuki and says, “I want you to have this Miyuki so a part of me will always be with you.”

    Miyuki looks over the card and says “Waboku a classic. Thank you, Tsukasa, for supporting me with my secret hobby and for giving me this card. It touches my heart how wonderful you are. I will truly treasure it just because it was from you, I have a feeling this will help me someday. I love you Tsukasa. What did I do to deserve someone like you? I just keep falling more in love with you every day. It touches my heart that you love me back and I will always be thankful for you being my girlfriend.” She smiles as she puts the card in a sleeve and puts it on her deck then kisses her girlfriend who kisses back.

    Tsukasa smiles that Miyuki loves her gift, especially since this was a card she carried around for a long time for good luck and hoped it gives Miyuki good luck. Tsukasa hugs her and says “I am glad you will treasure it Miyuki. I love you too. I hope it brings you good luck and helps you. All you’ve been been was yourself Yuki, and that’s how I fell in love with you, and I keep falling more in love with you every day. It touches my heart that you love me, and I am thankful to any higher power as well as my New Years fortune for having you as my girlfriend. I really am.”

    They held each other for as long as they could with a tender kiss here and there until it started getting a little late. Tsukasa had to get home and was on her way to the door when Miyuki gently stopped her.

    Miyuki with a gentle smile says “I can walk you to the station if you want Tsukasa? I just want to make sure you get home safely.”

    Tsukasa with a smile of her own says “I really appreciate the thought I really do, but the travel isn’t far at all. I look forward to seeing you again Miyuki. I always have fun being with you no matter what we’re do together.”

    Miyuki gently hugs Tsukasa who hugs back and says “I just do not want anything to happen to you, but I understand you wanting to go by yourself. Just be careful please and text me when you get home safely.”

    Tsukasa with her signature smile says “I promise Miyuki. I know I would be worried if you did as well. How about tomorrow we can have a picnic in a nice shady area and if it is too hot have it inside my place?”

    Miyuki smiles and says “Sure. I would love to, and we can even feed each other. I’ll head over to your place first thing in the morning. How does that sound Tsukasa?”

    Tsukasa says with excitement “Sure! I look forward to our picnic date, Miyuki.”

    Tsukasa with love in her eyes cuffs her girlfriend’s right cheek with her left hand then strokes it with her thumb gently and says “I will see you tomorrow. Bring your Yu-Gi-Oh! deck over please. I want to see how well you play. I love you Miyuki so much.”

    Miyuki with love in her own eyes as she cuffs Tsukasa’s cheek with her right hand in kind then gently strokes it with her thumb and says “I will see you tomorrow. Sure, I will bring my Yu-Gi-Oh! deck and I want to see your deck as well. I love you too Tsukasa more than anything.”

    They both share one last hug and one last kiss. Miyuki walks Tsukasa out the door and watches as she walks toward the station back home. Miyuki smiles to herself while holding her hand over her heart, really feeling how in love with Tsukasa she is, and her life could not have gotten any better. Tsukasa smiles to herself as she was on the train heading back home thinking about how I love she is with Miyuki and how her life couldn’t not get any better. She put a hand over where her heart is and looks forward to tomorrow.

    Meanwhile a shrouded masked figure watches from a distance on top of a building, turning their attention on the couple themselves before them. The individual kept watching until Miyuki walked back inside her home.

    The masked figure says “I found you Miyuki Takara, finally. Enjoy today while you still can because tomorrow, I have plans for you.”

    With a flick of a finger the figure opens a portal and walks through it leaving no trace behind.

    The next day Miyuki was on her way to her girlfriend’s house carrying a light purple jacket (same color as Tsukasa’s hair) in case it got cooler later and it was hot outside early in the morning she has her hair in a ponytail with that ribbon that Tsukasa gave her.

    ‘I cannot shake the feeling that this hot morning feels like something might happen and I really hope I am wrong on this. I am finally here thankfully. I hope Tsukasa, Kagami-San and Konata-San can stay cool today. I’ll have to call mother and say that I will be staying overnight to be safe when I get there. School will be starting in about nine days. I wonder what Tsukasa will want for her future. I know I want to stay with her for as long as she will have me so we can make a future together. I hope we both will be in the same class this coming April.’ Miyuki thought to herself as she was just approaching the door, then gives a knock unaware that a mysterious masked figure was watching her from a distance.

    The masked figure in question from a distance says, “Let’s change the weather a little so it is not hot, making my plan a lot easier to put into effect.” The figure with a snap of a finger changes the weather to be cooler.

    Miyuki was surprised at the sudden weather change but feels cooler now.

    Miyuki sighs in relief says, “That is a lot better! It seems like we have better weather for a picnic date.”

    The door opens revealing Tsukasa, Kagami, and Konata who all greeted Miyuki who she greets back.

    Miyuki with smile of relief says “All of a sudden, the weather outside got colder after it was ridiculously hot this morning. I’m extremely glad it did.”

    Tsukasa with excitement “That’s wonderful we can go on that picnic date outside Miyuki! We can enjoy the cooler weather too while we feel each other. We can cuddle outside.”

    Konata with a smile says “A picnic date and feeding each other. You both are just so adorable. Extremely Moe.”

    Kagami with a smile says “Have fun and be safe Tsukasa. Come back inside if it gets too hot outside again, ok?”

    Tsukasa nods at that and says, “I will Sis. You have my word.”

    Miyuki says with a smile “I will make sure we both get back inside if it does get really hot outside Kagami-San.”

    Kagami smiles at that and says “Thank you Miyuki-San I am very thankful for you watching out for my sister. It there is anyone that Tsukasa ended up in a relationship with I am extremely glad it is you.”

    Miyuki smiles and says “You’re welcome, Kagami-San and thank you! I appreciate it.”

    Kagami smiles with a nod and says, “You’re welcome, Miyuki-San.”

    Miyuki and Tsukasa set up for their picnic and had fun doing so. They got fruits, sandwiches, and a small cake that Tsukasa made for them to eat. After they finished packing, they both headed outside to find a spot to sit at. They settle for the shaded area by the shrines that Tsukasa and Kagami normally go to. They had a fun time placing the blanket on the ground and setting up the food unaware a masked mysterious figure was watching them.

    The masked figure while observing “I will wait for them to eat their meal together before I make my move. Enjoy your last meal Miyuki while you can because I plan to make you suffer.”

    Miyuki and Tsukasa were feeding each other sandwiches first and are enjoying their time together. They then ate the fruit by feeding one another that if anyone was watching, they would think was the most adorable thing.

    Tsukasa with a smile says “Say Ahh Miyuki.”

    Miyuki blushes with a smile and says “Ahh.” Tsukasa fed her a grape when Miyuki opened her mouth.

    Miyuki says with a smile “Say Ahh Tsukasa.”

    Tsukasa with a blush of her own as well as a smile says “Ahh.” Miyuki fed a small strawberry which Tsukasa ate.

    They took a break from eating and are just holding each other; Miyuki covers Tsukasa with her light purple jacket while laying down like a blanket.

    Tsukasa says with a smile as she looks at the taller girl “Over a month of being girlfriends together and we still cannot get enough of each other. If that is not what love feels like I do not know what is. I know I love you very much Miyuki and that will never change.”

    Miyuki gently strokes Tsukasa’s short hair with a smile and says “We did know each other for quite a while and have danced around our feelings until last month. We are just making up for lost time which is why we still can’t get enough of each other. It also helps that we can do anything together and just enjoy yourselves. This does feel like love without a doubt since love is something you just feel and not just think about. I know I love you too Tsukasa and that will never change.”

    They share a tender kiss then place their foreheads on each other with a smile taking in the warmth the other is giving. They both have so much they want to do together and want to have a future together as wives someday. It is a dream they both have.

    Tsukasa ponders, then asks, “Hey Miyuki?”

    Miyuki says with a smile “Yes Tsukasa?”

    Tsukasa continues “Do you believe in the Heart of the Cards? I know that it is supposed to be an anime thing from the anime itself, but I like to believe that it is real and that the cards do have a heart. If you give someone a card that means something to you it is like that person is with them or like a part of their deck is with them. It’ s why I gave you my card because I am with you no matter what happens as well as a part of your deck.”

    Miyuki says with a smile “If you were to ask me years ago, I might have said no, but I grew to believe that I myself, granted, allowed anime did influence me. I do believe and when you gave me your trap card that showed me that you too also believe. It helps that I am in a relationship with you. I am glad a part of you is in my deck.”

    Tsukasa smiles brightly at that, and hugs Miyuki tightly who hugs back then says “I am extremely glad you believe Miyuki. Together nothing will ever stop us.”

    Miyuki also smiles brightly and says “Me too. You are right, together we can do anything. Feel ready for the cake yet?”

    Tsukasa say excitedly “Yes please!”

    They both had the cake with each feeding the other like they did with the main meal all while the mysterious figure was still observing the wholesome couple.

    The mysterious masked figure says “Miyuki and Tsukasa are near the end of their meal. It is time for me to take my move.”

    Eventually Miyuki and Tsukasa finished all the food together as they were sitting while looking at one another with a smile on their faces.

    Miyuki with a smile says “I can’t eat another bite. That was tasty Tsukasa.”

    Tsukasa smiles and says “I am glad you loved the food Miyuki. It is easy making food for the people you love.”

    Miyuki says with a smile “You are too good to me my adorable shrine maiden. I don’t know what I did to deserve you, but I am thankful for every day that you told me you love me. I love you Tsukasa so much.”

    Tsukasa says with a smile of her own “You are too good to me as well my wonderful smart angel. It is me that does not know what I did to deserve you, but I am forever grateful that you love me back. I love you too Miyuki more than anything.”

    Miyuki and Tsukasa share a kiss than another and another.

    The mysterious masked figure after finishing writing something and putting it in an envelope says, “It’s finally time to make my move.” The figure starts walking to the couple.

    Miyuki and Tsukasa heard someone approaching causing them to stop kissing now. They both turn to look at a mysterious figure that is in a black cloak covering the body and face wearing a mask. They both stood up to greet the person.

    The masked figure says, “Hello Miyuki Takara.”

    Miyuki says politely “Hello there. How can I help you?”

    The masked figure did not say anything, but instead took out a gun and then pointed it at Tsukasa. She felt fear looking at a gun pointed at her. Miyuki stood in front of Tsukasa to protect her.

    Miyuki in a protective tone while staring down at the mysterious masked figure holding a gun says “Why are you pointing a gun at my girlfriend? Get out of here before I call the police!”

    The masked figure unphased at the threat punches Miyuki in the gut knocking her down to the ground.

    Tsukasa in fear said “Miyuki!!” She run up to her and helps her off the ground then says, “Miyuki are you ok?!” Miyuki is holding her gut from the punch she just took. She let go of her gut since it stopped hurting.

    Miyuki says with a groan “I am all right Tsukasa even if that did hurt for a second. What a punch.”

    Tsukasa looks at the figure and says in an upset tone “What is your problem? What did Miyuki ever do to you?”

    The figure in a distain tone says, “I want to Miyuki suffer before she dies.” The masked figure starts walking to Miyuki.

    Tsukasa, while scared without hesitation is standing in front of Miyuki with her arms out to try to protect her and says with a determined face “No! I will not let you hurt the one I love! You will have to go through me to get to Miyuki!”

    The masked figure in an amused tone “That is just ridiculously cute that you think you can stop me, but you will not stand in my way Tsukasa. It is time that I move you out of my way.”

    With a flick of a finger the masked figure levitates Tsukasa away from Miyuki as she screams in fear.

    Miyuki says in horror “No! Leave Tsukasa alone! She has not done anything to you!” Miyuki then runs up to the figure and tries to land a hit. A mysterious masked figure grabs Miyuki by the neck lifting her up.

    Tsukasa in horror says “No! Miyuki!”

    The masked figure with great disdain says “You are just completely and utterly pathetic Miyuki! You are so weak and so meek! You can’t take a punch and you can’t deliver one either. I can just kill you right here and now without any effort needed, but I want you to completely suffer first!” The masked figure lets go and then uses a finger to levitate Miyuki as the masked figure takes out a syringe needle and injects it into Miyuki’s body through her neck to the horror of Tsukasa. The masked figure then released her and dropped the syringe needle.

    Tsukasa with horror seeing all this happen says, “NO! What have you done to Miyuki?!”

    The masked figure says, “I injected her with a sleeping serum that will put her to sleep very soon.”

    The masked figure turned their attention to Miyuki and says, “I will be taking Tsukasa with me while you will be sleeping.”

    Miyuki, struggling to continue to stand as she tries to walk to the mysterious figure in question says “No… I… Will…Not… Let… You… Take… Tsukasa… I… Promised… Her… That… I… Will… Be… There… To… Protect… Her…”

    The masked figure said “It is impressive you are fighting the serum for as long as you are Miyuki, but you failed to protect her. When you wake up, read this letter. Good-bye for now Miyuki!” Miyuki falls to the ground slowly losing consciousness as the figure places the letter next to Miyuki.

    Tsukasa shouts in fear “MIYUKI!! MIYUKI!! MIYUKIIIII!!!” The masked figure opens a portal.

    Miyuki struggles to stay awake as she reaches her right arm out and say “S… t… o… p!!” She falls unconscious into sleep hearing the voice of fear from her girlfriend as they go through the portal which shuts afterwards.

    No less than a minute Kagami and Konata arrived at the scene listening to voices in the background noticing an unconscious Miyuki with a letter that has her full name on it and no signs of Tsukasa.

    Kagami with a worry says, “What on earth happened here?”

    Konata says with a serous face “Something went down, and I have a feeling it’s something bad. Unbelievably bad. We need to take Miyuki inside. You get the blanket, jacket, and basket Kagami. I will carry Miyuki.”

    Kagami says “Sounds like a plan Konata. I hope Miyuki is ok.”

    Konata says with concern “Me too Kagami. Me too.” She happens to notice a needle on the ground then looks at the mark on Miyuki’s neck. Konata checks Miyuki’s pulse which thankfully she still has one.

    Konata in a serious matter says “Kagami can you please grab needle on the floor? Something tell me this needle is important.”

    Kagami nods and grabs the needle on the ground then brings it over Konata to have a look.

    Konata gives a quick look then says “It is a sleep needle and a powerful dose too. Let’s get her to a bed so she can wake up in.”

    Kagami says with a frown “Good idea. I don’t like this; my sister is missing and Miyuki is asleep... what happened?”

    Konata says with a frown of her own “I don’t like this either and I hope Miyuki can shine a light on the matter. Let us get her in.

    Konata and Kagami bring Miyuki inside and place her on Tsukasa’s bed. They just wait out the time for her to wake up.

Tsukasa’s has taken by a mysterious figure! Who is the mysterious figure? How long will it take for Miyuki to wake up? What is in the letter?

Chapter Four – Resolve

    At the Hiiragi residence, Miyuki wakes up inside Tsukasa’s room. Konata and Kagami were sitting right next to where she was sleeping along with the empty picnic basket as they read a manga together while they waited for Miyuki to wake up. She tries to get up off the bed, but because her body is still shaking off the effects of the sleep strum that was in her body by the mysterious masked figure, she falls to the floor only for Konata and Kagami to catch her. They both help her to the bed to sit on.

    Konata says with concern “Whoa there Miyuki-San! Take it easy! You just woken up!”

    Kagami looks at her with concern and says “I am glad you are awake Miyuki-San! Are you ok?” 

    Miyuki takes her surroundings noticing she is in her girlfriend’s room where she used to cuddle with Tsukasa. She then notices her friends and says “Konata-San? Kagami-San? Thank you. I’m all right. How long was I out?”

    Konata pulls out the needle that was found on the ground next Miyuki and says “Judging by this for about an hour. This must be quite the substance. You were out like a light.”

    Kagami says, “I found this laying right next to you with your name on it.” She pulls out a letter that has Miyuki’s full name on it.

    Kagami with worry asks “Miyuki-San, what is going? Where is Tsukasa?” Her eyes are full of worry for her twin sister.

    Miyuki remembers what happened earlier and with an incredibly sad look says. “Tsukasa. She... she… she was taken away by a mysterious masked figure. I tried to protect her, but I got punched in the gut onto the ground then I tried to land a punch only the person to pick me up by the neck and injected with a sleep strum. I managed to fight off the effects for a minute at most. Before I fell asleep, they left me instructions in that letter. They could have killed me than but wanted to make me suffer first. I am so-so sorry Kagami-San.”

    Miyuki pounds the bed with her right fist along with sadness and she starts to cry and  says “I promised Tsukasa that I would protect her! I promised her, and she gets kidnapped! Her terrified look was the last thing I saw before I lost consciousness as she shouted my name in fear. Who knows what that person will do to her!”

    Kagami puts a hand on Miyuki shoulder then hugs her and says “Miyuki-San it is not your fault. You had something injected into you and tried your best. I do not blame you for my sister getting kidnapped so please do not blame yourself.”

    Konata with a serious face as she hugs Miyuki says “Yeah and it’s the mysterious masked figure that took Tsukasa. Something tells me that person has something against you… You should open the letter.” 

    Kagami nods then gives Miyuki the letter that was on the ground earlier to her by the Mysterious Masked Figure.

    Miyuki wipes her tears then thinks to herself ‘A mysterious figure that kidnapped Tsukasa and seems to have a vendetta against me. Let’s read what the letter says.’

   Miyuki opens the letter and reads aloud to Konata and Kagami.

    Hello Miyuki Takara,

    If you are reading this that means you are awake from my sleeping strum. I will cut to the chase and get to the point. I kidnapped your precious girlfriend Tsukasa Hiiragi. She is the bait to get you to come so I finish you off since you love her. If you don’t meet my demands exactly, I will kill her publicly and painfully then I will personally hunt you down!

    You will come to the top of the high school building that you go to with your Yu-Gi-Oh deck along with a dual disk and you will come alone! If anyone comes with you, she dies! 

    You have four hours to come and if you take too long, she dies! I look forward to destroying you Miyuki and will have immense pleasure watching your girlfriend’s face as she watches me snuff the life out of you.

    Don’t keep me waiting if you know what is good for you! Comply with my demands and I might show you who I am. That is all. Just know I could have killed you, but I want to at least give you a fighting chance as well as make you suffer first. You will fall and I will enjoy watching you die. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!!

    After finishing reading the letter Miyuki felt so many emotions circling through her as both Konata and Kagami looked in horror at how cruel that person would be to Tsukasa. 

    Miyuki felt fear for her girlfriend’s life being at stake, anger that the mysterious masked figure is using her girlfriend as a hostage to get to her and what she felt most was a driven resolve to save the one she loves. Miyuki with a sheer force of will get off from the bed and starts walking towards the front door leaving Tsukasa’s room. Kagami and Konata go after her. Miyuki’s eyes are on fire as her face took on a profoundly serious expression.

    As Miyuki makes it to the front door of the house and was about to put her shoes on, Kagami stands between Miyuki and the door. They both have a stare down at one another.

    Kagami with a serious look says, “Where do you think you are going Miyuki-San?!”

    Miyuki with a serious expression says, “I am going to meet the mysterious masked figure that has Tsukasa and get her back!”

    Kagami with an intensely serious face of her own says “By yourself?! This is ridiculous! You are the one that thinks first usually Miyuki-San! Shouldn’t your think this through first?!”

    Miyuki still with her serious expression says “I already thought it through Kagami-San after I read the letter! I won’t risk Tsukasa’s life just waiting! I must do this! I am going and neither you nor Konata-San will stop me! I promised Tsukasa that I will protect her, and I intend to keep that promise. If you were in my situation regarding Konata-San, I know you would do the same without hesitation! I’m going to ask you this once Kagami-San. Please move and don’t try stop me!”

   Kagami was completely stunned with how serious Miyuki sounded as well as the fire in her eye. In all the years she had known Miyuki she never saw her this serious about something in her life. With an understanding expression after sighing Kagami says, “I hate that you are right on the matter, and I won’t stop you Miyuki, but can you wait just a minute first before you go out. If Konata’s life were at risk, I would do the same without hesitation. I know i would be on the war path to save her.”

    Miyuki smiles that Kagami understand why she needs to do this then says “Thank you for understanding Kagami-San. I can wait a minute or two.”

    Kagami says with a smile “Sure. I will be right back.” She runs to her room to get something.

    Konata says with a serious expression “I wouldn’t have stopped you. This is the most serious I ever seen you Miyuki-San. I would do the same if Kagami were the one kidnapped. You are about to take on your main villain to rescue your princess. Do me a favor and teach that person a lesson! You got this!”

    Miyuki says with determination as well as a smile “With pleasure Konata-San and thank you for being supportive. I even understand the reference you made too.”

    Konata smiles at that as Kagami returned with a card.

    Kagami says, “I want you to have this Miyuki-San. I am a fan of the card game as well. I did not know you were a fan until today. I do enjoy the anime with both the sub and dub. The dub did make me laugh at points.”

    Miyuki takes the card to look at it and says, “The Fiend Megacyber?”

    Kagami smiles and says “It’s a card that is important to me that I’ve had for a long time. If I can’t be there with you in person, I can be with you in spirit at least. I have known you for all our high school life. This card may help you out in tipping the scales in your favor. I believe in the Heart of the Cards just like Tsukasa does. Please promise me you will bring my sister back and that you will be careful Miyuki-San.”

    Miyuki sleeves the card and puts it into her deck then says with determination “Thank you Kagami-San. I am glad I’m not the only one who likes the Yu-Gi-Oh anime along with the card game. I will treasure this; I know you will be with me in spirit. I will bring her back or die trying I promise you that. I’m glad to have a friend like you Kagami-San.”

    They both hug for a moment then Konata pulls out a card from her pocket.

    She hands the card to Miyuki and with a smile says, “I’m also a fan of the card game along with the anime as well. It’s the only one that I enjoy western dub as much as the sub. I also want to give you this, so I am also with you in spirit. It’s so my heart is in your deck like how Kagami’s is. I too believe in the heart of the cards, Miyuki-San.” 

    Miyuki looks at the card and says, “Compensation Mediation?”

    Konata with a smile says “Yeah. You never know when you will need one last chance to save yourself. A little bit of luck never hurts, and I bet the villain will never see this coming.”

    Miyuki with a smile puts Konata’s card into a sleeve then places it in her deck and says “Thank you Konata-San. I figured you were a fan as well. I’ll be sure to use this as well. With a card from you, Kagami, and Tsukasa in my deck I feel ready to face the villain to safe the one I love.”

    Konata and Kagami hug Miyuki who hugs back and say to her “Be careful and you got this!”

    Kagami says as passes a dual disk for Miyuki to wear “It’s a custom made one which I had for a while that changes colors depending on the personally of said person. I want you to use this Miyuki-San.”

    Miyuki nods and says “Thank you both, I will have her back soon, I promise. Time to get my girlfriend back. I will see you both later.” She puts on her shoes, then puts on her light purple jacket and attaches a dual disk to her left wrist. Konata gives her blue fingerless gloves which Miyuki puts on. She takes off the yellow ribbon from her hair and then ties it around her right wrist for good luck.

    They both nod at her and give a thumbs up. Miyuki says good-bye to her friends then goes out the door and makes her way to the high school where she’ll go to face the one that has her girlfriend. While she is afraid of what awaits her, her love for Tsukasa is her drive fueling her inner fire. Her eyes burn brightly filled with determination.

    Miyuki thought to herself while feeling determined ‘I’m coming Tsukasa! I won’t let that person hurt you. I don’t know what is in store for me, but I will face it no matter how hard or impossible it is. Whoever you are, you’ve made a big mistake kidnapping my girlfriend and I will not let you stop me from saving her. I believe in the Heart of the Cards. I made a promise to Tsukasa, and I intend to keep it!”

    Back at the Hiiragi Residence both Konata and Kagami are the only ones in the house now.

    Kagami with a worried look says “Tsukasa doesn’t deserve what is happening to her. I just wished we can watch the dual while it takes place.” She turns to her girlfriend and says “Oh Konata, I am scared for Miyuki and Tsukasa right now. Two very innocent people were forced into something that shouldn’t have happened.”

    Konata hugs Kagami and says “I’m worried too I will not lie, but I believe in Miyuki. I know this mysterious figure has made a horrible mistake messing with Miyuki. Her eyes were on fire. She will succeed, I just know it. I’ll see if I can find a way to watch the duel. No matter what happens I’m with you to the end Kagami. I love you.”

    Kagami with a smile says “Thank you Konata. I love you too. I believe in Miyuki too. I will just hope and pray for her success.”

    They both shared a tender kiss for a second when Konata got a notification that a live broadcast will air today.

    Kagami with worry says, “You think this is the mysterious masked figure hacking the broadcast, Konata?”

    Konata pondering says “I would not be surprised if that was the case which might mean we could cheer Miyuki on if what I’m thinking will happen. Quick we need to take care of any business we need to do!”

    Kagami with a determined look says, “You don’t need to tell me twice!”

    Kagami gets to work putting the house in order while Konata is watching the TV so she can signal to her girlfriend when it goes live.

Will Miyuki save her girlfriend? Who is the mysterious masked figure and why does that person want to kill Miyuki so much?

Chapter Five - The Confrontation

Miyuki made it to her high school building and looked for a way to the top. The fire in her eyes still burns as she has a serious expression on her face. Meanwhile over on top of the building the mysterious masked figure saw Miyuki approaching the place as they pulled out a watch. After trying to open door after door Miyuki finally found a way to the top of the building.

After a flight of stairs Miyuki made it to the very top of the building. The mysterious masked figure is facing the other side of the building with its back to her.

The mysterious masked figure says “So you have arrived Miyuki Takara and in record time too. I see the effects of my sleep serum did not last long on you.”

Miyuki with anger on her face as her eyes burn with fury says “I followed your instructions exactly! Now I will ask you this once. Where is Tsukasa?! Where are you holding her?!”

The mysterious masked figure points to the side and says in an indifferent tone “She is right over there Miyuki.”

Miyuki turns to find her girlfriend chained to a chair struggling to break free. Miyuki shouts in relief “Tsukasa!”

Tsukasa turns to look in Miyuki’s direction and with a look of relief shouts “Miyuki! You’re ok!”

Miyuki starts running to her girlfriend when the mysterious masked figure pulls out a gun and points it as Tsukasa. Both Tsukasa and Miyuki freeze in place.

The masked figure now pointing the gun at Miyuki says in a serious tone “Just where do you think you’re going? I didn’t say you can go to her!”

Miyuki turns to face the mysterious masked figure says in a serious tone with a fire in her eyes “Just give me a little time with her than I’ll duel you.”

The masked figure puts the gun away and with a sigh says “Fine. You have five minutes Miyuki, after that no more! So better make your last moments with her count while you can and don’t try to free Tsukasa because I’ll know.” The masked figure enters the portal leaving the two of them alone. Unbeknownst to Miyuki and Tsukasa a camera is broadcasting what is going on airing all over Japan.

Miyuki runs over to Tsukasa, keels down and checks to see if she is ok. Miyuki then cuffs Tsukasa’s cheek with her right hand that has a fingerless glove on it with concern says, “Are you ok? Did the masked figure hurt you Tsukasa? I am sorry this happened to you. You don’t deserve this.”

Tsukasa shakes her head with a smile, looks over at Miyuki’s right arm seeing the ribbon she gave her and says “No that person hasn’t hurt me. I am just glad you’re ok Miyuki. I knew you would come for me, and I never doubted you.” Tsukasa smiles while looking at Miyuki’s ribbon she gave her as a good luck charm on her right arm.

Tsukasa looks down in disbelief and says “What does that person want with you? This person wants to kill you but wants to make you suffer first, this feels like one of those dangerous duals from the anime. I’m so scared for you Miyuki. I’m sorry I couldn’t have done a better job at protecting you.”

Miyuki brough her face closer to Tsukasa says “The person threated to kill you if I didn’t come alone. I couldn’t risk your life like that. I’m scared too if not terrified. I don’t know why that person wants me and why they want to make me suffer, but I have an unbelievably bad feeling about this. I promise you that I won’t let anything happen to you and I’ll fight for us. I will face this mysterious masked figure and teach that person a lesson to never mess with us. It’s not your fault, I’m touched that you tried to protect me, but I’m sorry I failed to protect you before, but It won’t happen again.”

Tsukasa with a smile says “It is not your fault, and you did try your best. You can do it Miyuki! I believe in you! Just please be careful. Don’t forget about the Heart of the Card. No matter what happens I will cheer you on since it’s the least I can do. What kind of girlfriend I would be if I did not try to protect you? I love you Miyuki so much.”

Miyuki says with a smile for the first time since Tsukasa was taken from her “Thank you Tsukasa! I will do my best! You don’t know how much I really appreciate it. I believe in The Heart of the Cards. I love you too Tsukasa more than anything.”

They shared a strong tender kiss, they tried to make it last as long as they possibly could until they pulled way. They lean their foreheads onto each other enjoying the little time remaining. Miyuki gives Tsukasa a hug, a strong, gentle, and reassuring hug, which Tsukasa can only accept as she’s chained to the chair. Miyuki holds for as long as she can as she gently strokes her lover’s short hair in reassurance.

The masked figure comes out of a portal and says “Your five minutes are up Miyuki! Let’s get this duel going. It’s time to destroy you like the weak and truly, pathetic girl that you are!” The figure walks to the side and summons a crimson red duel disk and then activates it. It starts by releasing five monster slots in a five-way star and spinning before transforming into a standard five zone duel disk that lights a dark red. The mysterious figure then takes out their deck taking out the extra deck cards and puts it in to the duel disk.

Miyuki eyes burned with the fire of determination she announces with her whole chest “I will prove to you I am not weak! My resolve is to save my girlfriend Tsukasa, the one I love, and you will not stop me! I will protect her like I promised her!”

Miyuki walks to the other side opposite of the masked figure, they face each other with distance now. She takes out her deck then gets out the extra deck cards and finally gives it a good shuffle. After she finishes shuffling, she attaches her deck to the duel disk she borrowed from Kagami and activates it. It first sends out two slots and then combine to make the standard five zone like one of the classic duel disks from the original anime, but its color flashes on a mix of pink, light purple, yellow and white to represent the color of Miyuki and Tsukasa. Both their decks have sixty main cards and fifteen extra deck cards in them

Miyuki Serious in the face says, “Who are you?!”

The masked figure says, “You will find out soon enough Miyuki!”

Miyuki and the masked figure are ready to duel, but need to decide who goes first.

Masked figure says “How do you want to decide who goes first?

Miyuki with a neutral expression says “Rock, Paper Scissors?”

The masked figure says in a neutral tone “Fine. Rock, Paper Scissors.”

The masked figure and Miyuki meet in the middle, and They have their hands ready.

Miyuki with determined look says “On Shoot?

The masked figure says, “On Shoot.”

They both say while banging their right hand into their left like how folks in the west do it at the same time “ROCK! PAPER! SCISSOR! SHOOT!”

They both put out what they picked. Miyuki picked Rock and the Masked figure picked Paper meaning masked figure won.

The masked figure says, “I will let you go first Miyuki since where I come from the person that goes first does no draw for their first turn.”

Miyuki with determination says, “I can still set up on my turn at least.”

They both got into positions and then drew their five cards.

Miyuki and the masked figure say at the same time “LET’S DUEL!!

Both their Life Points flash 8000 officially beginning the trail Miyuki is going to go through.

Meanwhile over at Hiiragi residence, Konata notices the live broadcast has started on  TV.

Konata shouts “Kagami! Come quick!”

Kagami just finished getting the house ready then comes quicky in time to see the conversation between the masked figure and Miyuki. After they watched up to the figure going through a portal leaving Miyuki and Tsukasa by themselves for five mins.

Kagami with a frown says “That must be the one who kidnapped Tsukasa. At least they allowed Miyuki time to talk with my twin sister. Five minutes is not enough time though and should have gotten more!”

Konata with a frown says “That villain wants to leave a little hope for the two just to crush it after. I do agree five mins is not enough time, but Miyuki and Tsukasa will use the remaining time together. Something tell me this duel will be extremely dangerous.”

Kagami with worried expression on her face says “I don’t like this Konata and it’s just not right. Miyuki is truly a kind soul and does not deserve this. I just wished that we could help them.”

Konata with some worry says “I don’t like this at all either Kagami. Neither deserve to have to suffer and I wished we could help them. We can at least cheer for Miyuki and believe in her. I don’t look forward to having to explain to your parents and Miyuki’s parents on what is going on.”

The rest of Hiiragi family got home not soon after Konata said that. Kagami explained everything what is going on and why Miyuki as well as Tsukasa are on the TV screen. The family was horrified by the news, learning that Tsukasa being kidnapped by a masked figure that wants to kill Miyuki it made everyone feel helpless to do anything. Konata says to them that they just need to believe in Miyuki since that’s the only way to help her. They all nod. Kagami called up Miyuki’s mom and explained to her what was going on and showed her the the TV screen. Miyuki’s Mom told Minami Iwasaki about what happened and told her to turn the TV on, everyone was now in the loop.

Eventually on the TV screen the masked figure returns saying Miyuki’s five mins are up and sets up for the duel.

Kagami says with a frown “What a jerk that person is! Just not wanting to even let Miyuki enjoy the moment with Tsukasa! That person just pisses me off!”

Konata says with a frown “That person is a villain; I agree Miyuki should get to enjoy the wholesome moment with Tsukasa. It looks like the duel will begin. Hopefully, things will go well with Miyuki.”

Kagami holds Konata and with concern says “Me too Konata. Me too. It now begins. She is going first, and she cannot draw for her first turn. You can do it Miyuki.”

Back over on top of the school building Miyuki is about to make her first move.

Turn one – Miyuki’s first turn with 8000 LP a deck of fifty-five cards and a hand of five card she cannot draw a card on her first turn.

Miyuki with determination says “Time to make my first move! I will start by activating my spell card Foolish Burial Good! It lets me send a spell or trap from my deck to the Graveyard, but I can only activate one of these once per turn.”

Miyuki looks through her deck to see what spell or trap to send to the Graveyard. She finds what card to pick. “I choose to send my trap card Crystal Miracle to the graveyard!” she says,

Miyuki sends her trap to the graveyard and continues her turn by saying “Next, I activate the spell card Rainbow Bridge! This allows me to add a Crystal spell or trap card from my deck to my hand.”

She than looks through her deck to pick a card and after Miyuki found the card she wants says “I will pick Crystal Beacon Spell card to add to my hand.” She adds the spell to her hand.

Miyuki says “I now activate my spell card Crystal Bond! It allows me to add a Crystal Beast monster from my deck to my hand and place one Crystal Beast monster with a different name from my deck in my spell and trap zone faced up as a continuous spell. I can only activate one crystal bond once per turn.”

Miyuki looks though her deck and finds the monsters of her choice then says, “I will add to my hand my Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus!”

Miyuki adds the monster to her hand and continues “The one I will place in the spell and trap zone is my Crystal Beast Rainbow Dragon!” Miyuki places Crystal Beast Rainbow Dragon in the spell and trap zone showing a large rainbow gem appear on the field.

Miyuki with a smile says, “I summon now from my hand my Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus in attack mode!” An Indigo crystal appears on the field changes to a Pegasus with a sapphire horn and gold feathers flashing 1800 ATK points. Miyuki continues her turn saying, “I activate Sapphire Pegasus’ effect that lets me place another Crystal Beast to my spell and trap zone.”

Miyuki picks a card from her hand and says, “I pick my Crystal Beast Amber Mammoth!” She places it in the spell and trap zone showing an orange gen on the field.

Tsukasa just looks in awe at how her girlfriend was able to do so many moves in one turn so far. She says with a smile, “Go Miyuki!”

The mysterious figure says slightly impressed, “Not bad Miyuki for working with only five cards in your hand, but that will not be enough to save you.”

Miyuki with determination says “Don’t be so sure I am not done yet. I now activate my Crystal Miracle in my Graveyard! Since I have a Crystal Beast card placed in my Spell and trap zone while it is in my graveyard, I can banish this card to place another Crystal Beast Monster from my hand, deck or graveyard in the spell & trap zone faced up.” Miyuki looks through her deck again and finds the monster of her choosing to pick.

Miyuki says with a smile “I pick my Crystal Beast Topaz Tiger to go to my Spell and Trap Zone!” She places the monster in the spell and trap zone revealing a yellow stone on the field.

Miyuki says, “I now banish my Crystal Beast Rainbow Dragon from the spell and trap zone which allows me to special summon a level 4 or lower Crystal Beast Monster from my deck, however its effects are negated if I do, I can add one Ultimate Crystal monster from my deck to my hand.” Miyuki looks through her deck once more to pick out a monster and settles on one she wants.

Miyuki says, “I choose to special summon my Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise to the field in Defense mode” A green gem appears on the field that transforms into a tortoise with green crystal spike on its shell revealing 2000 DEF points.

Miyuki says, “Now I can add to my hand my Rainbow Dragon from my deck as the last effect of Crystal Beast Rainbow Dragon!” She shows a copy of Rainbow Dragon then is added to her hand from her deck.

Over at the Hiiragi residence, everyone that’s watching is floor at how many moves Miyuki is doing with just a hand of five cards.

Kagami with awe says “That is incredible! I didn’t know Miyuki had such skill and cards like that. She is pulling out all the stops to show how serious she is. She could be champion material if she wanted to be!”

Konata says with an amazed expression of her own “She is not even done yet with her turn either. She is overall on a whole new level! It truly is incredible! I feel like I am watching a Yu-Gi-Oh anime episode or a Team APS video! How long has she been into the card game?”

They both shout “Go Miyuki!!”

Back as Miyuki continues her turn still, she says “I activate my Crystal Beacon Spell card! Since I have two or more Crystal Beast monsters in my Spell & Trap Zone, I can Special Summon Crystal Beast Monster from my deck!” Miyuki looks through her deck again and finds the monster she wants to summon.

Miyuki with a smile says, “I choose to Special Summon my Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle in defense mode!” A red stone appears on the field that changes into a little Carbuncle creature with a red gem at the tip of it’s tail.

Miyuki with a smile says “When Ruby Carbuncle gets Special Summoned, I can Special Summon all of Crystal Beast Monster from my spell and trap zones. I Special Summon my Topez Tiger and my Amber Mammoth to the field in attack mode!” The orange gem turns into a large two tusked mammoth with 1700 ATK points and the yellow gem transforms into a tiger that is white with black strips as well as horn on its head along with all legs with 1600 ATK points.

Miyuki, feeling satisfied with what she was able to do with her first run with a smile says “Finally I will set one card faced down and I will end my turn. Your move.” Miyuki hand is completely empty of cards and her deck at 50 cards left.

Tsukasa eye’s sparkled at what Miyuki was able to do just now for her first turn. She beaming in the face “That is amazing Miyuki! You go! I love you so much!”

Miyuki smiles at the complement her girlfriend said give a response “Thank you Tsukasa! I love you too!”

Turn two – The masked figures’ first turn with 8000 life points and a hand of five cards.

The masked figure says “You aren’t as weak as I thought you were, but it’s now my move, Time to draw!” The masked one draws from their deck making the hand six cards and her deck fifty-four cards.

The masked figure says, “I start by discarding Cyberdark Claw to the graveyard which allows me to add a Cyberdark spell or trap from my deck to my head.” The masked figure picks a card to add to their hand making the deck have fifty-three cards.

They continue their turn by saying “I summon Cyber Dragon Core to the field in attack mode!” A snake like dragon that has a red core in the center appears on the field with 400 ATK points.

The masked figure says “This monster is normal summon, I can add a Cyber spell or trap card from my deck to my hand. This monster becomes Cyber Dragon when on the field or the graveyard.” The masked one looks through their deck to add a card to their hand making her deck have fifty-two cards remaining.

The masked one says “I now activate Cyberdark Inferno field spell. Cyberdark effect monster I control that are equipped with and equip card cannot be destroyed by my opponent’s card effects and my opponent cannot target them with card effects.” They place field spell down which has flames appear around both.

The masked one says “I activate Cyberdark Realm! When this card is activated, I can add a Cyberdark monster from my deck to my hand with a different name from the cards in my graveyard. During my main phase I can do a normal summon of one Cyber dark monster. I can use two other effects once per turn. I can equip a monster from my graveyard by the effect of a Cyberdark when their effect gets activated when they are normal or special summon I can instead do it from your graveyard instead.” They place the card to activate.

Miyuki with a determined face says “I don’t think so! Activate my facedown trap card, Crystal Miracle! I activate its first effect that when a spell, trap or monster effect is activated I can destroy one Crystal Beast I control and if I do negate that activation and if I do destroy that card. I target your Cyberdark Realm by destroying my Ruby Carbuncle which goes to the spell and trap zone!” Ruby Carbuncle goes back as a red stone in the spell and trap zone while the masked figures card gets negated and destroyed.

The Masked figure says “Fine. I place one card facedown and end my turn. Make your move Miyuki.” The masked figure laid a card faced down on the field with a hand of three cards and a deck of fifty-three cards.

Turn three - Miyuki’s second turn she has no cards in her hand with 8000 LP still.

Miyuki with a smile says “My move! I draw!” Miyuki looks at her card then enters her standby and then her main phase.

Miyuki with a determined says “I enter the battle phase! I will have my Topez Tiger attack your Cyber Dragon Core and in the damage step my monster games an additional 400 attack points.” Miyuki’s monster goes from 1600 to 2000 and destroys Cyber Dragon Core.

The masked figure unphased by the attack loses 1600 life points going from 8000 to 6400.

Miyuki with a serous face says, “Next my Sapphire Pegasus will attack you directly!” Miyuki’s monster attacks the mask figure dealing 1800 going from 6400 to 4600 points and causes the mask to crack a little.

Miyuki says with a serous face “Finally my Amber Mammoth will attack you directly!” The large mammoth charges and hits the masked figure causing an explosion dealing 1700 damage going from 4600 to 2900 points. The mask shatters to pieces and leaves just a hood that hides the face but only shows a deep dark shadow and evil looking crimson eyes.

Miyuki with a smile says, “I end my turn!” She has one card in her hand and forty-nine cards in her deck.

Tsukasa with a smile says “You almost won Miyuki! Just one more turn is all you need now!

Miyuki smiles at Tsukasa and says, “I hope I can keep the lead by my next turn Tsukasa!”

Miyuki turns to the mysterious figure and says with a serious tone “Now who are you?”

The figure laughs and says “Looks like it is time to see who I am Miyuki. Then you will understand why I want to kill you so badly.” The mysterious figure takes off their hood revealing their face.

Both Miyuki and Tsukasa gasp in shock.

Miyuki says in shock “WHAT?!

Tsukasa says in shock “NO WAY!”

Meanwhile at Hiiragi home, everyone is cheering how well Miyuki is doing from the attacks she did. They all saw the face of the mysterious individual.

Konata and Kagami both gasped at the face as well as the rest of Kagami’s family at the identity of the mask figure.

Konata and Kagami both say “WHAT?!!”

Kagami says in shock “Are you seeing what I am seeing Konata?!

Konata says in shock “YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME?!”

In the early bits of the duel Miyuki is in the lead, but will she stay in the lead? Who is the identity of the mysterious figure and why is that person causing everyone to gasp in shock?

Find out in Chapter six – The identity is finally revealed.

Chapter Text

Chapter six - The identity is finally revealed.

For the first time in this entire dual Miyuki felt fear looking at who the identity of the one that kidnapped Tsukasa. After Miyuki did a good look over her opponent she says in a fearful tone “You’re… You’re … You’re….”

The face of the mysterious figure is finally revealed to both Miyuki and Tsukasa. The hair is long, thick, and wavy pink hair. The height is 5 feet, 5 inches or 166 cm. Her eyes are a pure dark crimson red that show malice and evil. A smile that would make anyone quiver in fear. The figure is older looking by a few years. She doesn’t wear any accessories on her face. The figure says with an evil smirk “That’s right Miyuki Takara. I am you! I am Miyuki Takara from another dimension!” She starts laughing afterwards.

Miyuki says with fear in her eyes “Where... Where are you from? Why... Why do you want to kill me so badly?”

The evil looking Miyuki with a smirk says “That answer is simple. It is to kill every other Miyuki Takara in existence. I spent a long-time hunting down Miyuki after Miyuki killing every single one of them. It is to my surprise that one more still exists and it so happens to be you!” The evil Miyuki points to the original one. 

The evil Miyuki starts laughing at how fearful regular Miyuki is. The dark one says “I was born in a dimension where evil thrives unopposed. Our job is to make sure nothing interfered with our darkness as well as kill any other vision of ourselves to be the only one that exist, the one true original. We all start by hunting down every single version of us and eliminating them one by one. Some put up a decent fight while other fell at the drop of a hat.”

Evil Miyuki’s face turns to that of disgust and says “Out of all the many versions of myself I met in my life; you are by far truly the most pathetic of all of them! You are weak, you are meek, you have terrible vision without your glasses, is such a clumsy klutz that is afraid of the dentist, can’t take a punch, can’t give one out and of all the people who are in a relationship with, you pick her! HER!! HEEERRRRR!!!!!” She points at Tsukasa. 

Miyuki almost starts crying at all the insults and insecurities her evil self is throwing at her, but she hears Tsukasa say in a serious tone “Don’t listen to her Miyuki!! She is wrong about you in many ways! You’re very smart, you’re truly kind, you’re very compassionate, you’re also very brave and you’re a girl of your word. You are strong and I will NOT have some evil version of you tell you otherwise. Most of all Miyuki I love you more than anything!”

Thanks to Tsukasa encouragement as well as a good look over at her girlfriend, Miyuki shakes off her fear, starts smiling and accepting the encouragement says “Thank you Tsukasa! I love you too! I needed that.”

Tsukasa nods to her girlfriend and then turns with a frown and says to the Evil Miyuki “You may look my girlfriend and sound like my girlfriend, but you’re not her or you’ll never be her! The Miyuki Takara I know would never be cold, cruel, heartless, or just plain evil! You are just a monster that enjoys hurting people and bringing them down. My girlfriend is close to winning against you anyway and there’s nothing you can do about it! You failed! You made a mistake messing with us!”

Evil Miyuki, angered by Tsukada’s statement she continues insulting her at Miyuki “You could have been with anyone, and I would have been fine with it. Hell, I would even have accepted it if you hooked up with Kagami or that perverted idiot Konata! BUT You had to pick the most air-headed, heavy sleeper, clumsy, naive, most dimwitted, lacking intelligence, can’t text to save her life and is helpless girl Tsukasa! She truly is the most useless girl in existence! The only decent quality she even got going for herself is cooking, but that isn’t enough!”

Tsukasa was so hurt by all the insults said about her and started to cry. Miyuki now felt for the first time in her life incredibly angry that an evil version of herself just insulted the one she loves with the fiercest glare she’s ever gave anyone, as the fire of determination changed into burning anger where Miyuki raised her voice and said: “How dare you? HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY GIRLFRIEND TO A POINT OF CRYING!!! YOU MONSTER!!!! Tsukasa is a much better person than you’ll ever be! She is smart in her own way and her intelligngece will only increase with time. She can even text just and at least she’s a fast typer! She tries her best with the effort she puts in, and the results show. She never gets mad at anyone and is one of the most wholesome and understanding people I’ve ever known in my life! Anyone is lucky to have her for a friend or a significant other! I love her with all my heart and will continue to love and support her! I will not have my girlfriend be insulted like this not now nor ever especially by someone as evil as you!!! MAKE YOUR MOVE!!”

Tsukasa is stunned at how Miyuki has defended her and cried happy tears at how much she means to the one she loves.

Tsukasa smiles and says “Miyuki, thank you very much for defending me. I love you so much.”

Miyuki manages to calm down is glad that she brought a smile to the one she loves face with a tender voice saying “You’re welcome, Tsukasa. I won’t let anyone bring you down like that. I promise you that I will always be there for you. I love you too more than anything.”

Miyuki turns her attention to evil Miyuki with a serious expression as her eyes burn with determination. Tsukasa says with a smile “You can do it Miyuki! I believe in you!”

Miyuki smiles at that and says “Thank you Tsukasa! I won’t let you down!”

The evil Miyuki for the first time in her life felt a little bit fear from what is supposed to be the weakest of all the Miyuki Takara, but she has an ace ready to play and will play it to bring the pain to Miyuki.

At the Hiiragi resident, Konata and Kagami saw it all unfold horrified that another version of Miyuki exists that is just purely evil try to emotionally hurt Miyuki and Tsukasa.

Kagami became so enraged for the first time in a while that someone would insult her friend, her sister, and her own girlfriend like that and say with her left hand clenched “GRRR!! Let me at her! I want her to feel the physically feel the emotional pain she just inflicted to Miyuki and Tsukasa! HOW DARE SHE CALL TSUKASA ALL THOSE INSULTS?!! HOW DARE SHE INSULT KONATA?!!”

Konata experiences a little bit of anger but she puts her arms around her girlfriend to prevent her from trying to act irrationally then she says “I do as well, but if we were to try to do that, she will kill Tsukasa! We just need to keep believing in Miyuki. She is winning with only needing just one turn and she can end this! Miyuki just went to being a full-blown absolute badass with defending Tsukasa.”

Kagami calms down a little and says “You’re right Konata. It is so wrong that Evil Miyuki kills every existing Miyuki from different dimensions. Miyuki is such a badass with defending Tsukasa. Thanks for stopping me from doing something rash.”

Konata smiles and says, “You are still my number one badass to me Kagami. You’re welcome, Kagami. I know you would stop me if I was that angry.”

Kagami blushes then smiles and says “Thank you Konata. Let’s continue to watch.”

Konata nods and gives Kagami a quick kiss.

Back with the good and evil Miyuki on the roof, it is now Evil Miyuki’s turn.

Turn four - Evil Miyuki’s second turn with only 2900 LP and three cards in her hand with fifty-three cards in her deck.

Evil Miyuki says, “My move and I DRAW!” She picks up a card and starts laughing evilly at Miyuki and Tsukasa who start to worry. Her deck is now fifty-two cards.

Evil Miyuki with an evil smirk says “I start by playing Cybernetic Horizon! This is always treated as a Cyberdark card. I send two dragon and or machine cyber monsters with different attributes to the graveyard, one each from my hand and deck then add one dragon or machine cyber monster from my deck to my had, and if I do send 1 machine Cyber fusion monster from my extra deck to the graveyard. I can only activate one copy of this card per turn. I cannot be able to special summon monsters from the extra deck the turn I activated this card except machine monsters! I choose to send my Cyberdark Chimera to the graveyard then I will send a Cyber Dragon Core from my deck to the graveyard!” She sends the monster from her hand and the other from her deck. Her deck is now fifty-one cards left.

She then says with a smirk “I send Cyber End Dragon from my extra deck to the graveyard!” She sends Cyber End Dragon from the extra deck to the graveyard.

She then says after laughing “Since I sent Cyberdark Chimera to the graveyard I can send a Cyberdark monster from my deck to the graveyard that is a different name from the cards in my graveyard. I choose to send Cyberdark Cannon from my deck.” She sends a Cyberdark Cannon from deck to graveyard making her deck only have fifty cards left.

She then says “I activate Cyberdark Claw’s effect by sending it to the graveyard I can add a Cyberdark spell or trap from my deck to my hand. I will get another Cyberdark Inferno to my hand!” She adds the field spell to her hand and brings her deck to forty-nine cards.

Miyuki with a serious expression says, “What is your plan to do with a second copy?”

Evil Miyuki says with a smirk “You will see soon enough Miyuki. I normal summon Cyberdark Chimera to the field in attack mode!” A large and scary mechanical Chimera appears on the field with 800 ATK points.

She says, “I use its effect to discard a spell or trap to add a Power Bond from my deck to my hand! I can only use Dragon or Machine Cyber monsters as Fusion Material this turn and once when I use fusion summon this turn, I can also banish monsters from my graveyard as material” She adds a Power Bond Spell card to her hand after getting rid of her Cyberdark Inferno in her hand leaving 48 cards in her deck left.

Miyuki understands what Evil Miyuki is planning and with fear says “Oh No! You are trying to summon out a strong fusion monster this turn!”

Evil Miyuki with a smirk says “Very good Miyuki! I use Power Bond to Fusion summon CYBERDARKNESS DRAGON by sending Cyberdark Chimera to the graveyard and banishing Cyberdark Claw, Chimera that was in my graveyard, another claw and Cannon.” An exceptionally large mechanical dragon gets summoned to the field that has an exceptionally large cannon to the field with 2000 ATK points that suddenly becomes 4000 ATK points.

Tsukasa with fear says, “Why did that monster’s attack points double?!”

Evil Miyuki says with an annoyed eyeroll, “That is Power Bond’s effect which doubles the attack of the monster and fusion summoned by it! I will take 2000 life point damage because of Power Bond’s last effect, but I will more than enough life points to survive the duel.”

She says “Thanks to my Cyberdarkness Dragon effect I can equip a monster from my graveyard that is wither a dragon or a machine monster and my monster games the original ATK of the monster equipped to it by this effect. I chose to equip Cyber End Dragon to my Cyberdarkness Dragon!!” A large three headed machine dragon is summoned and gets attached to Cyberdarkness Dragon making it have 8000 ATK points.

Tsukasa with terror says “8000 Attack points?!!!! Oh no Miyuki watch out!!!!

Evil Miyuki with a smirk says “I AM NOT DONE YET! I activate my facedown trap Cyberdark Invasion! This lets me target a Cyberdark monster I control and equip 1 dragon or machine monster from either graveyard to it as an equip spell that give it 1000 Attack. I chose Cyberdark Chimera that is in my Graveyard and equip to my Cyberdarkness Dragon!” The same machine chimera comes back to the field and then gets attacked to Cyberdarkness Dragon increasing the attack to 9000 points.

Miyuki felt truly afraid at the power she was seeing while Tsukasa was shaking like a leaf.

Evil Miyuki says “Now it is time! I will bring very real and true pain to you Miyuki when I active the continuous Spell card The Evil Seal of Pure Torture! This card increases my monsters by 500 attack points and any Life Point damage inflicted to both of us is real pain!! The loser of the duel will die because of this spell! It can only be removed off the field by sending it back to the deck! I told you that I will make you suffer first before I kill you Miyuki!! My Cyberdarkness Dragon is now 9500 ATK Points!” A large dark seal surrounds the field underneath the two.

Tsukasa now felt truly afraid for Miyuki as she shouted “NO! MIYUKI!”

Evil Miyuki in a serious tone says “Now I enter battle!! NOW I attack your Amber Mammoth with my Cyberdarkness Dragon since the effect I must attack it first!!!! ATTACK WITH DARKNESS CANNON BLAST AND INFLICT PAIN TO HER!!!!!” Cyberdarkness Dragon charges the cannon as it takes aim. It then fires at Amber Mammoth destroying it and goes into the spell and trap zone, but Evil Miyuki negates the effect by removing Cyberdark Chimera sending Amber Mammoth to the graveyard bringing the attack down to 8500.

Miyuki loses 7800 from that attack as she felt the worst pain she had ever experienced in her life, being hit by the darkness canon blast as she cries in pain, she screams an ear-piercing scream in pure agony

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” It lasted a good minute until it finally ended. Miyuki then collapses on the ground on her knees then face first with only 200 life points left falling unconscious.

Tsukasa was horrified at what she just saw the one she loves to get inflected with real pain and fell unconscious then shouted “MIYUKI! MIYUKI!! WAKE UP! PLEASE WAKE UP!! MIYUKI!!! MIYUKIIII!!!” Tsukasa cried after she got no response.

Evil Miyuki starts laughing evilly at the results “AH! AH! HA! HA! AH! HA! HA! HA! HA! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! YES!! SHE IS FINALLY SUFFERING LIKE I WANTED HER TO!!! THERE IS NO WAY SHE WILL BE ABLE TO WAKE UP! SHE IS A GOOD A DONE!” She continues to laugh evilly as she still has two cards in her hand.

At the Hiiragi home, Konata, and Kagami both gasped as they watched in horror at what just happened to Miyuki. The rest of Kagami and Tsukasa’s family were horrified at what had just happened.

Kagami was very shaken at what she just saw happen to Miyuki says in fear “Oh Miyuki. My... My... God... That… Monster… She… Just… She just Inflected real pain to our friend.”

Konata in complete anger at how cruel evil Miyuki to Miyuki says, “GRR!! She is a monster and that is just downright cruel with what she did for Miyuki! What is worse is she laughs at the pain she is inflicting! GRRR!!”

Kagami with worry says “Miyuki please get up! Please!”

Konata says in a serious tone “Please get up Miyuki! Remember what you are fighting for!”

Everyone that knows Miyuki is watching in horror at what she just experienced. Many that are watching the duel are hoping and praying she gets up.

Evil Miyuki turned the tables and now Miyuki is unconscious. Will Miyuki wake up? Will she win in the end, or will she lose the duel as well as her life?
