Monarch Fight

Solona covered her eyes when the green light flashed. The light was so bright that she was blinded for a second. She began to feel lightheaded and then she collapsed onto the floor.
...
Meanwhile across the ocean in Domino city, in an underground basement, the members of the Venatori had gathered. The Elder one stood in spirit form between Samson, Livius and Calpernia who had gathered several of her followers which were her lieutenants Hanley and Linea. Samson had brought his top men, Denam and Carroll and Livius had brought his top man, Gordian.
"Venatori!" The Elder one spoke. "We have just had information that our Amell girl has just gone to a set of old ruins on her Island. Now she is alone."
"So this is the time to strike." Livius finished
"I will go master." Samson spoke. "I will get you your Old God card."
"You!" Gordian laughed. "You failed to defeat her already. You are pathetic Samson and so are your followers." Denam and Carroll glared at him
"You are lower ranked than us Gordian!" Calpernia snapped
"Calpernia's right." Livius agreed. "Only the master agrees on who should go."
"And I have chosen who should go." The Elder one spoke. "She may have defeated me before, but let's see how she does when her friends are in danger. Send for our test subject!" Soon, two new members of the Venatori known Macrinus and Luncanus dragged in a man in chains who looked like he had experiments done on him "So is our subject cooperative now?" The Elder one asked
"He is Elder One!" Macrinus claimed
The Elder one forced the test subject to look at him in the eyes, the subject's eyes were blank and then the Elder One's eyes glowed red and the test subject's eyes closed but then reopened and his eyes were now glowing red. "Now Zero, will you obey my orders."
"Yes master." Zero claimed. "I will"
"Then your mission will be to duel the girl known as Solona Amell. She is currently on a field trip with her friends. I want you to capture her friends and then Duel her by having her friends threatened. When she is defeated, bring her and her special card known as Urthemiel back to me. Are you up to this challenge?"
"Yes Master, I am ready for this." Zero smirked. "I shall bring you the girl with you."
"You shall be using your old deck to give her a challenge. Make sure you do not fail!" The Elder one hissed. "Now go and do your mission."
"Yes Master" Zero said and then he walked out of the building and the Elder One Created a portal to take Zero to Duel Academy Island.
...
When she woke up, he knew that something was wrong as she remembered that she and the rest of the group were all at the ancient ruins but now the very ruins they had been in now seemed to have been rebuilt. She saw what looked like temples all around them. When he heard footsteps approaching, Solona decided that it would be best if she wasn't seen as she didn't know whether or not these people were friendly. Solona hid in a small opening in a stone pyramid and moments later, several people dressed in dark robes came running by. They were all holding sharp spears and their faces did not look friendly at all. When Solona managed to get a look at them, she was shocked as she realized that these people were the Gravekeeper spirits. Her brother Daylen once used the Gravekeeper deck when he started dueling. Solona thought it was best to remain hidden until the soldiers were gone.
When there were no soldiers in sight, Solona decided that now was her chance, she had to find her friends and get out of here. She decided against calling for them was out of the question as the Gravekeepers will be alerted and learn that she was here. Solona made a run for a small pyramid. She soon found herself at a small set of stairs. She knew that this was a risk as there could be more Gravekeepers hiding on these stairs and there would be no escape this time.
"Solona" the voice of Urthemiel came "I think you should go down these stairs, I feel the presence of your friends down here."
"But what if there are more of those Gravekeepers down here?" Solona asked. "If I get caught I may get trapped." Then Solona turned and then she was shocked when she saw that Urthemiel was standing next to her as a small dragon with purple scales 
"Urthemiel!" She gasped. "You're real!"
"Calm down Solona!" Urthemiel hissed. "You might alert the guards. But don't worry about any Gravekeepers down here, I will protect you."
And so Solona listened to Urthemiel and she went down the stairs. The stairs went on and on for what seemed like forever "How deep do these stairs go?" Solona asked herself and eventually, she made it to the bottom of the stairs. But her heart fell when she saw a maze or corridors "Oh man, it's like a maze down here. How am I meant to find my way around here?"
But her thoughts were interrupted by a shrill scream. "Someone Help!"
Solona gasped when she heard the voice of Neria. "Neria!" Solona yelled and then she ran along the main corridor as fast as she could. She soon found a large door but when she tried to open it, the door was locked. Solona charged several times into the door which eventually was knocked open. When she looked around the room, she gasped. She could see some of her friends suspended in a large cage that was hanging above a black portal of some kind. Daylen, Neria, Aedan and Theorn were in the cage while Alexis, Syrus, Chumley, Banner and Jaden were nowhere to be seen.
"BROTHER!" Solona yelled. "NERIA, AEDAN, THEORN! Are you okay!"
"We're all right for now sister." Daylen shouted back
"What happened?" Solona asked
"This is your fault Daylen." Aedan yelled at Daylen as he grabbed his shoulders. "If you had stayed with Banner and the others, we wouldn't be like this."
"Enough Aedan!" Theorn hissed. "You're not helping."
Neria looked at Solona. "Daylen here got worried about you so he went off looking for you. We went after him but then we got knocked out by this strange man in a mask." She said
"Well don't worry, I'll get you out of there!" Solona claimed and she went to try and open get the cage down but was then stopped by a loud voice.
"Don't even think about that!" the voice hissed and Solona turned to see a man wearing dark clothes and a dark cape appear and wearing a dark mask and had greyish white hair. "If you do I will drop that cage." The man held out a remote and he pressed a button and the cage dropped slightly causing everyone to jump "That portal is a portal to the Shadow Realm, if that cage falls then your friends souls will be lost to the Shadow Realm.
"All right enough!" Solona yelled. "Who are you and what do you want?"
"Ah where are my manners, the name is Zero, and the Elder one sends his regards." The man said and everyone gasped
"The Elder One, you're working for the Venatori!" Solona accused
"Ah yes I am." Zero revealed. "Now you have something my master wants. So we will Duel, if you win, I will return your friends but if I win, you and that card will be coming with me to the Elder One. And your friends will be sent to the Shadow Realm."
"And what if I refuse?" Solona hissed
"Then I will release the cage and your friends will be lost." Zero smirked causing everyone n the cage to gasp in fear.
"Solona sighed, she had no choice but to Duel, she was glad she brought the Urthemiel card with her. "All right then, let's do this." Solona got her Duel disk from her bag that she had brought and put it on and she placed her deck into the deck holder before she activated her Duel Disk. Zero's Duel Disk appeared from his arm in a shadowy form.
"Duel!"
Solona: 8000
Zero: 8000
"You can take the first move." Zero sniggered
"With pleasure!" Solona snapped as she drew her sixth card. "I summon Mirage Dragon in attack mode." A large long yellow scaled dragon with bluish green hair appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1600 Defense 600) "Then I'll throw two cards facedown and call it a turn."
"My move." Zero smirked. "Since you have 2 spell or trap cards, I can special summon Escher the Frost Vassal from my hand." A small man wearing aqua blue armor, sitting on top of some ice appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 800 Defense 1000) "Also since I haven't normal summoned yet, I now sacrifice my Frost Vassal in order to bring out his master, Mobius the Frost Monarch." A large warrior with ice white armor and a blue cape appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defense 1000)
"Wait Monarchs?" Solona gasped. 'That was the deck my father used when he dueled.'
"And now the effect of Mobius activates, now two spell or trap cards on the Field are destroyed so say goodbye to your facedowns." Solona gasped as her two facedowns, Damage Condenser and Tyrant Wing shattered. "Now Mobius, destroy that Mirage Dragon." Mobius sent a flow of frost from his fist which froze Mirage Dragon solid in ice which then shattered and the Ice particles cut Solona as a result which caused her to groan in pain.
Solona: 7200
Zero: 8000
"Then I will place this card face down and end my turn." Zero finished. "Oh and your friends aren't safe. There was a scream as the Cage was lowered closer to the portal. "Each time you lose life points, that cage will lower closer to the Shadow portal, as soon as you lose, the cage will drop."
"That's not going to happen!" Solona yelled and the she drew her card and smirked at it. "I play the spell card Foolish Burial now I can discard my Blue Eyes White Dragon to the Graveyard from my deck."
"Why would she do that?" Neria asked
"I think we are about to find out why." Daylen added
"Now I play the quick play spell Silver's Cry." Solona added. "Now I can special summon 1 dragon type normal monster in my Graveyard and I pick my Blue Eyes White Dragon." The large bluish white scaled dragon appeared on the field (Level 8 Attack 3000 Defense 2500) "Next I summon Luster Dragon in attack mode." A large purple scaled dragon appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 1900 Defense 1600) "Now Blue Eyes, destroy that Frost Monarch." Blue Eyes sent a blast of blue fire which destroyed the monarch.
Solona: 7200
Zero: 7400
"And I still have one more attack." Solona added. "Now Luster Dragon, attack him directly." Luster dragon fired a blast of purple fire at Zero but he didn't groan in pain despite it being a Shadow Game.
Solona: 7200
Zero: 6500
"I end my turn there." Solona finished
"Well you summoned a powerful monster." Zero commented. "A good move, too bad you won't have him around for long." Zero drew his card and smirked at it "I play Mystical Space Typhoon which allows me to destroy my face down card."
"Huh, but why?" Solona asked confused
"I don't get it." Neria said in the cage. "Why would he destroy his own card."
"That face down must have an effect when it is destroyed" Aedan said
"Your friend is right." Zero smirked. "The card was Statue of the Wicked and when this card is destroyed, I can summon a wicked token." A small serpent like monster with a pyramid on its head appeared on the field. "But he won't be around for long, because now I will sacrifice my Wicked Token in order to summon Zaborg the Thunder Monarch." A large armored monster with a green helmet, silver shoulder pads and an orange set of greaves with black stripes appeared on the field (Level 5 Attack 2400 Defense 1000) "And when Zaborg is tribute summoned, I can select one monster on the field and destroy him and the target I pick is your Blue Eyes White Dragon." Solona gasped when her Blue eyes shattered. "And now my Zaborg will attack that Luster Dragon." The Thunder Monarch's fists sparkled with lightning and then he sent a huge blast of lightning at Luster Dragon and destroyed him.
Solona: 6700
Zero: 6500
Solona's friends gasped when the cage lowered again. "I will end my turn there." Zero finished
"My draw." Solona hissed as she drew her card and she looked at it, "I summon Masked Dragon in defense mode and end my turn." Solona said and the red and white scaled dragon appeared on defense mode (Level 3 Attack 1400 Defense 1100)
"My move." Zero said. "Zaborg, destroy that Masked Dragon." He ordered and then the Thunder Monarch sent another blast of lightning and destroyed the Masked Dragon.
"You just activated Masked Dragon's special ability." Solona said. "Now I can summon 1 dragon monster with 1500 attack points or less and I choose to summon Keeper of the Shrine in attack mode." A small dragon like priest appeared on the field (Level 4 Attack 0 Defense 2100)
"I will end my turn there." Zero finished
"My move." Solona drew her card and smirked. "I sacrifice my Keeper of the Shrine to summon Red Eyes Black Dragon in attack mode."
"Wait Red Eyes?" Neria questioned. "But that's a level 7 monster so it requires 2 sacrifices."
"When used for a dragon type monster, Keeper of the Shrine counts as 2 sacrifices." Daylen revealed.
Solona's large black scaled dragon with red eyes appeared on the field (Level 7 Attack 2400 Defense 2000) 'Now I could destroy that Thunder Monarch but that will also destroy Red Eyes, leaving me defenseless so I guess I will play it safe for now.' "I now play the spell card Inferno Fire Blast." Solona said. "This spell deals you damage equal to Red Eye's attack points so go Red Eyes, attack him with Inferno Fire Blast." Red Eyes sent a powerful fireball which engulfed Zero but despite now big the fireball was, the blast didn't hurt him at all.
Solona: 6700
Zero: 4100
"All right, Solona has taken the lead in this Duel." Neria cheered
"But remember, we still haven't see the full strength of the Monarch cards." Theorn added
"I end my turn." Solona finished.
"Well now it is my move." Zero smirked. "And I discard 1 card from my hand to special summon Berlineth the Firestorm Vassal." A red armoured pyro warrior with a blue cape and fire rings from his hands appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 800 Defense 1000) "But he won't be around for long because now I will sacrifice him in order to summon his own master, Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch. This also activates Berlineth's special ability which means I get to look at your hand and I can banish one card until the end phase." Zero looked at Solona's hand and he smirked "I choose to banish your Polymerization." Solona's Polymerization was removed from play but Zero also got to look at Solona's hand. Then the Vassal disappeared into some fiery rings and a new heavier red armored warrior with flames coming from his hands appeared in the field. (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defense 1000) "And now his special ability activates which allows me to discard one random card in your hand and thanks to Berlineth's special ability, I know where your Lord of D monster is so I choose that card." Zero pointed to Solona's hand where her Lord of D was and Solona was forced to discard him. "And there's more, since he was a monster, you take damage equal to that monster's level x100 so now you take 400 points of damage." Solona gasped when Thestalos threw a fireball at her which burnt her, causing her to groan in pain.
Solona: 6300
Zero: 4100
"Now I will sacrifice my Zaborg by attacking your Red Eyes which will destroy both monsters" Zaborg threw a fist of lightning and Red eyes sent a fireball at the Thunder Monarch and both monsters were destroyed. "And now you are wide open so now Thestalos, attack her directly." Zero added and then the Firestorm Monarch sent a wave of fire at Solona and they fire burnt Solona which caused her to scream in pain as she fell to her knees.
Solona: 3900
Zero: 4100
"SISTER!" Daylen shouted
"Solona!" Aedan, Neria and Theorn yelled as Solona fell to her knees and was breathing hard and then the Cage lowered by a large amount and this caused the four in the cage to be thrown around the cage.
"I end my turn there." Zero smirked. "Now make your move. That is unless you give up, after all, it looks like you have no chance of winning."
"Don't listen to him sister!" Daylen shouted. "You can't give up, you have to carry on Duelling or else none of us will get out of here."
"Don't worry Daylen, I never give up!" Solona said to Daylen with determination in her voice 'But just how am I going to do that, this Duel just got a whole lot harder. But I have to win, not just for me, but for all my friends.'
Zero laughed. 
"Make your move already." He sniggered
"Fine, here it goes." Solona said as she drew her card. "And now I get my Polymerization spell back to my hand. And now I will activate my Card of Sanctity which allows us both to draw until we hold 6 cards." Solona and Zero drew until they had 6 cards. "And now I will play Monster Reincarnation, now by discarding one card, I get my Lord of D back from the graveyard." Solona discarded one of her cards and got her Lord of D back to her hand. "And now I will play the spell card Polymerization to fuse Lord of D with Divine Dragon Ragnarok in order to summon King Dragun in attack mode." A long dragon that had a body that looked like a serpent and the body of a man as the head appeared on the field (Level 7 Attack 2400 Defense 1100) "And he has a special ability which allows me to summon 1 dragon type monster from my hand and I choose to summon my Luster Dragon #2 in attack mode." A large blue scaled dragon appeared on the field (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defense 1400)
"Whoa!" Theorn gasped. "Two powerful monsters."
"You're not the only one who can bring out powerful monsters Zero." Solona smirked. "Luster Dragon #2 attack that Firestorm Monarch." Luster Dragon #2 fired a blue blast at the Firestorm Monarch while the Monarch threw a firestorm. Both monsters were destroyed in the attacks.
"Both monsters were destroyed!" Aedan gasped. "But what was the point of that Solona?"
"Because now Zero is wide open for King Dragun to attack him directly, so go attack him directly." Solona smirked and King Dragun sent a blast of fire at Zero who used his arms to defend himself as Zero took another big hit but he didn't scream in pain.
Solona: 3900
Zero: 2700
"All right, Solona has the lead again." Neria cheered
"But the Duel is not over yet." Daylen noted
"I place one card face down and then I will end my turn there." Solona finished
Zero smirked. "You are a good Duelist Solona, I can see why the Elder one has such an interest in you, but you still won't win."
"That waits to be seen." Solona smirked
Zero said nothing and he drew his card and he looked at it. "Thanks to you, I now have quite a few good cards in my hand. But for now, I play the continuous spell card, Return of the Monarchs, now when I tribute Summon, I can add one Monarch monster to my hand. And then I will summon Lucius the Shadow Vassal in defence mode." A small black and grey armored warrior with horns on his head appeared on the field kneeling down (Level 1 Attack 800 Defense 1000) "And then I will throw two cards facedown and then I will end my turn there."
"My turn then." Solona said
"And time to activate my trap card." Zero smirked. "I activate my continuous trap card, Escalation of the Monarchs. Since it is your turn, I am allowed to tribute Summon one monster and now I tribute my Shadow Vassal in order to summon Granmarg the Rock Monarch, also since Lucius was sacrificed, I am allowed to look at all set cards on the field and that includes your face down card." Zero looked at Solona's face down card and saw that it was Mirror Force. Then a large rock monster appeared on the field replacing the small black armored warrior (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defense 1000) "And you can forget about your Mirror Force as when Granmarg is tribute summoned, I can destroy one set card on the field so now you Mirror Force will be destroyed." The Rock Monarch threw a rock and destroyed Solona's facedown Mirror Force. "And now I can add one Monarch monster to my hand and I choose Erebus the Underworld Monarch. And it is still your move."
"Well I will use the equip spell card Dragon Treasure." Solona said. "This increases King Dragun's attack points by 300" (KD 2400-2700) "And now King Dragun, attack that Rock Monarch" Solona ordered and then King Dragun's blast smashed into the Rock Monarch causing the Monarch to shattered.
Solona: 3900
Zero: 2400
"And I will place one card facedown and end my turn." Solona finished
"My move." Zero smirked and he drew his card. "I play the spell card Monster Reincarnation in order to get my Firestorm Monarch back to my hand." Zero discarded one card and got his Firestorm Monarch back to his hand. "And then I will play the spell card Tenacity of the Monarchs now by revealing my Firestorm Monarch in my hand, I can add one Monarch spell or trap card in my deck and add it to my hand and I choose the quick play spell card The Monarchs Stormforth which I will now activate so now I can tribute one of your monsters for a tribute summon so now I will tribute your King Dragun to summon my Firestorm Monarch."
"Sorry but I play my facedown card Diffusion which de-fuses my King Dragun back into Divine Dragon Ragnarok and Lord of D in defense mode." The large dragon vanished and was replaced by a dragon priest and long pale purple dragon.
"Well I'll just use your Lord of D instead." Zero chuckled and then Solona's dragon vanished and was replaced on Zero's field with his Firestorm monarch again. "And don't forget, my Return of the Monarch continuous spell is still in effect so now I can add Caius the Shadow Monarch to my hand. And now, my Firestorm Monarch will attack that Divine Dragon." The Firestorm Monarch threw a fireball and destroyed the Divine Dragon. "I will end my turn there, but now I think it is time to show your other friends what has been happening."
"What are you talking about?" Solona demanded
"I mean your spiky brown haired friend with the Red blazer." Zero smirked. "I have felt that he has rescued your other friends from the Gravekeepers. Let him see what is happening." Then there was a rumble and the floor began to rise.
"Wait what is happening?" Neria gasped
Then the floor rose and then they were on top of a pyramid. "This is the work of the Shadow Games" Zero chuckled. "I have made our Duel take place on top of the pyramid in these ruins. Now everyone will see our Duel. I wonder if your friends will see you fail."
"That's not going to happen!" Solona hissed "My draw!" Solona drew her card and she smirked. "All right, just the card I needed."
"Whatever it is, it can't save you!" Zero chuckled
"Not even this card." Solona smirked and she revealed the card she drew, her Dragon's Mirror.
"No not that card!" Zero gasped
"I play the spell card Dragon's Mirror which allows me to fuse my Red Eyes, the Divine Dragon Ragnerok, my Luster Dragon #2, my Luster Dragon and my Mirage Dragon in order to summon, my all powerful Five Headed Dragon." Solona's five monsters were removed from play and were fused into Solona's great Five Headed Dragon. (Level 12 Attack 5000 Defense 5000) "It's over Zero, as soon as my Five Headed Dragon destroys your Firestorm Monarch, your life points will go down to Zero."
"Not after I play this, Emergency Provisions." Zero countered. "Now I sacrifice my Return of the Monarchs and Escalation of the Monarchs to gain 2000 life points." Zero's two continuous cards turned to yellow balls of light which were absorbed by Zero.
Solona: 3900
Zero: 4400
"Well my attack still goes through." Solona said and then each of Five Headed Dragon's heads sent a blast which combined into one which destroyed the Firestorm Monarch causing Zero to groan softly.
Solona: 3900
Zero: 1800
"That will do it for now." Solona finished
"My move." Zero said. "I summon Garum the Storm Vassal in defence mode and end my turn." A green armored man with the wings of a bird appeared on the field (Level 3 Attack 800 Defense 1000)
"That's it?" Solona questioned. "Well Five Headed Dragon, destroy that Storm Vassal." The Storm Vassal was destroyed but Zero was smirking.
"You think you've won, well you haven't yet" Zero chuckled. "This Duel is getting more extreme now."
…
Meanwhile, as soon as Jaden Yuki saw Solona's Five Headed Dragon on top of a Pyramid, he quickly ran off to find his other friends.
"Jaden wait up!" Syrus yelled after him
"Oh more running, I hate running!" Chumley complained
"Jaden wait, we can't just run off like that." Alexis shouted
"But that could be Solona Dueling." Jaden countered. "I have to make sure she's all right."
"We will go together." Banner said and then they all ran up the stairs of the Pyramid.
It took a while and by the time they reached the top, they were all breathing heavily and taking deep breathes but they were shocked by what they saw. Solona was dueling some kind of masked man with white hair while her brother and other friends were in a cage over a black portal of some kind.
"Solona!" Jaden shouted which got Solona's attention "Are you all right."
"Well I'm fine for now." Solona claimed
"What happened?" Alexis asked
"As soon as we went after Daylen we were attacked by this Shadowy figure" Aedan said. "He threw us in this cage and is using us as bait."
"As Solona loses life points, this Cage lowers closer to the portal." Theorn added
"And then we will be sent to the Shadow Realm." Neria said fearfully.
"The Shadow Realm!" Syrus gasped. "Oh man, if Solona loses then we will lose some of our friends."
"Relax Syrus, Solona seems to be winning" Chumley said
"Yeah." Jaden agreed when he saw the life points. "Solona has more life points and a powerful monster on her field."
Zero laughed. "Well that won't be the case after this move." He sneered. "I play Foolish Burial which allows me to ditch one card in my deck and send it to the graveyard. Then I play Monster Reborn to bring that monster back, I summon Eidos the Underworld Squire." A small black armoured warrior surrounded by a black aura appeared on the field (Level 2 Attack 800 Defense 1000) "And he has a special ability, you see if I special summon him, I can tribute summon an extra monster as well as doing my normal summon so that's what I will do. I now sacrifice Eidos in order to summon Caius the Shadow Monarch in attack mode." The Underworld squire was engulfed in a bright light and was replaced by a large grey armored fiend holding a purple ball in between his arms. (Level 6 Attack 2400 Defense 1000) "And he has a special abiliy of his own, you see when he is tribute summoned, I can banish one card on the field and if it is a dark attribute monster, then you lose 1000 life points so since the Five Headed Dragon is your strongest monster, I will banish him and deal you 1000 damage since he is a dark attribute." All of Solona's friends gasped in horror as Caius threw his ball of purple light at Five Headed Dragon and then the Dragon turned to dust and vanished. The Ball's magic also hurt Solona as she lost more life points.
Solona: 2900
Zero: 1800
"And now it is time for the grand finally!" Zero yelled proudly. "I still have an extra summon thanks to my Underworld Squire, I now sacrifice my Shadow Monarch to summon one of the most powerful Monarchs of all. I summon the lord of the Underworld, the king of Darkness. I summon Erebus the Underworld Monarch and I can summon him with one tribute since I sacrificed a tribute summoned monster." A huge black armored zombie like monster sitting on a throne appeared on the field (Level 8 Attack 2800 Defence 1000)
Solona's friends gasped
"No!" Alexis yelled
"Yes!" Zero laughed. "Now attack the girl directly Erebus!" he ordered as the Underworld Monarch stood up from his throne and then he slashed Solona with his hand. The slash was so hard that it sent Solona flying backwards with a shrill scream of pain and he landed hard on her back.
Solona: 100
Zero: 1800
"Solona!" Jaden yelled
"Oh no, one more attack like that and it's over." Alexis added
Then the cage dropped again and came only just above the portal causing Neria to squeal in terror as she held Daylen tight.
"Daylen, I'm so scared now." She squealed
"Don't worry Neria, we're going to be all right." Daylen said
"Don't give up Neria." Theorn added. "Solona can win this, a duel is not over until the last card is played."
"Did Jaden teach you that?" Aedan asked
"He sure did." Theorn replied
"Theorn's right Solona." Jaden called. "You have to get up, you can' give up."
"Who said anything about giving up?" Solona said as she pushed herself up though she was a bit unsteady on her feet.
"Why countinue?" Zero chuckled. "You should just give up now and save the humiliation."
"And let my friends be taken by the Shadow Realm?" Solona hissed. "That's not going to happen. I will find a way" 'I just hope I can keep my promise, because this next draw will probably be my last draw, I have to draw something big.' Solona then drew her card. "My draw!" Solona looked at her card. "I play Pot of Greed to draw two new cards." Solona then drew two new cards and her eyes widened at one of them. 'It's my Urthemiel card, this could be what I need to end this Duel, but I need to sacrifice 3 monsters to summon him, and I don't have any.' Solona thought and then she looked at her other cards. 'Wait, Monster Reborn and my second Silver's Cry spell, they can get me the monsters I need.' "I play the spell card Monster Reborn, this allows me to get Keeper of the Shrine back from the graveyard. And then I play my second Silver's Cry spell card to bring back my Blue Eyes White Dragon." Solona's dragon priest and Blue Eyed white scaled dragon returned to the field. "But they won't be around for long because I will now sacrifice both my monsters and since I am summoning a dragon, Keeper of the Shrine counts as 2 sacrifices meaning I sacrifice 3 so now I call out the ancient god of old."
"Wait, is she about to summon…?" Theorn started but didn't finish
"I think so." Daylen answered as he knew what Theorn was going to say.
"I now summon Urthemiel, Old God of Beauty in attack mode!" Solona yelled and then her God like dragon with purple scales appeared on the field (Level 5 Attack 5000 Defense 5000)
"No!" Zero yelled
"That's right, this is the card your master is after." Solona smirked. "And there's no need to use her ability since one attack will end this Duel. Now Urthemiel, destroy that Underworld Monarch and the rest of his life points." Urthemiel sent a powerful blast of purple fire from her mouth which engulfed and caused the Underworld Monarch to crumble before exploding causing Zero to scream as he the blast engulfed him.
Solona: 100 (Winner)
Zero: 0000
"All right!" Syrus cheered
"She won!" Chumley said.
The Shadow portal closed and then the cage fell and opened causing the four people to roll out of the cage landing in a heap.
"Oh get your foot out of my back!" Aedan growled at Theorn as they untangled themselves.
"Hey, are you guys okay?" Jaden asked
"We're fine Jaden." Daylen said. "We all are."
"Now we can go back home." Alexis said
Then Daylen noticed Solona walking over to the fallen body of Zero. "Hey sister, get away from him, he's dangereous."
"No brother." Solona called back. "I have to see if this is really who I think it is." Solona kneeled down to Zero's body and noticed that the white hair had turned black. Then Solona removed the mask and gasped at what she saw, the man's face was clearly the one that Solona thought it was. "I was right, it was him."
"Solona, what are you talking about?" Theorn asked when he saw Solona hugging the fallen man. "Who is this."
"Brother." Solona said softly as she looked like she was ready to cry. "Just look at this man's face, don't you realize who this is?"
Daylen walked over to his sister and then Solona came off the body allowing Daylen to get a good look at the man and then he gasped as well. "Wait, it can't be! Is that really him?"
"Yes it must be, it's our father." Solona said and then everyone gasped
"Wait this guy is your father?" Syrus gasped
"He was being controlled by the Venatori." Solona realized. "He was captured and brainwashed, that's why he went missing."
Jaden and the rest of his friends watched as Solona and Daylen both picked up the body of their father as they all went back down the stairs of the Pyramid.
...
Later Solona and her friends were with Jaden and the others back near the tomb with the Gravekeeper Chief, Assailant and Descendant. "Well now that all of your friends are here, now you will be able to return to your old world." Solona was carrying her father on her back with help from Daylen.
"Well that sounds good to me." Jaden said cheerfully, so how do we get back?"
"Go to the Gate of the Tomb." The Chief replied. "Just as the three lights combine into one so that the veil of Radiance appears before you."
"Okay." Jaden said
But then they were interrupted by the sound of footsteps and then the group saw many Gravekeeper's Spear Soldiers and Guards charged at them with spears drawn. 
"You fools!" The Chief growled. "What are you doing."
"They must be punished!" A spear soldier growled. "Either by you or by us!"
"Punish!" All of the soldiers chanted as they started to walk forward
"What the...?" Jaden gasped
"Stop!" The Chief hissed. "He has paid for his misdeeds, he has pasted the challenge. His freedom has been earned"
The soldiers didn't listen to him and they continued forward chanting "Punish" causing Neria to gasped in fright and clutch Daylen while Syrus clutched Chumley.
"Jaden!" Alexis gasped and then Jaden covered his eyes, but then there was a flash and the soldiers stopped. Jaden looked to see Gravekeeper's Assailant and Descendant in front of them. Assailant had her daggers drawn and Descendant had his staff pointed at the soldiers. Then Assailant's mask fell and Jaden gasped when he saw her face.
"It's you!" Jaden gasped when he saw that it was the woman who helped him when he first arrived at the tomb.
"Yes, I am Gravekeeper's Assailant," Assailant replied, "I'm sorry I fought you back there but I had to obey my chief."
"Hey it's cool." Jaden replied
"Hey Jaden" Syrus called. "Don't you think it's rude not to introduce me, I mean us to your friend." Causing Alexis and Solona to groan
"Go find your own Friend." Jaden joked
Then Assailant looked at Jaden. "When you return to your own world, please give a message to the owner of the other half of the medallion. Tell him that Yasmin is still in the other world but I haven't forgotten him. And that I believe that one day we will meet again."
"Oh boyfriend." Jaden commented and Alexis groaned
"I knew it." Syrus said sadly.
Then the soldiers stepped forward again and Descendant glared at them. 
"Stand back!" He ordered. "He has won the challenge and we must honour our word. We are the keepers of the graves, not the makers."
"If you want to harm any of them, you will have to get through us." Assailant added and then the soldiers grumbled and stepped aside. "I would leave while you still can."
"For sure, but how do we leave again?" Jaden asked as he didn't understand how to leave.
"Oh I think a friend will show you the way." Assailant smiled
Then Jaden heard a cooing noise and everyone looked to see Winged Kuriboh appear from Jaden's deck. Then Urthemiel followed and picked up Solona's father Aristide. "Solona, I'll help get your father back and we lead you hope." Urthemiel said and Solona nodded. Then Urthemiel picked up Aristide and Winged Kuriboh flew off.
"He wants us to follow him, come on!" Jaden called ignoring the fact that Syrus was rubbing his eyes, believing that he was just seeing things. And then Jaden ran after Kuriboh and everyone else followed.
...
Soon the whole group were near the Gate of the tomb when the three suns began to combine into one. 
"The light? They're combining!" Jaden yelled. "Come on you guys, we've got to hurry." Then Chumley tripped as they came towards the Gate causing him to hurt his knee. "Chumley, are you okay?"
"Old tricycle injury." Chumley claimed as he held his knee and he looked up. "Just go on without me, you don't have time to wait." But Urthemiel picked him up and placed him on his back so he could carry him. Then the group arrived at the Gate as the three suns combined into one and then there was the large flash of light again.
...
Jaden slowly opened his eyes and he saw that he was lying next to the ruined pillar with Alexis leaning on his shoulder and all his other friends lying around "Hey guys." He said and he stood up and noticed that all his friends were all asleep. "It must have been a hallucination because of all those moldy sandwiches." But then he noticed the half medallion around his neck. "Or not." Then he picked up Winged Kuriboh's card "Well I don't know about you Kuriboh, but something tells me the Shadows will be back." Then he saw Solona and Daylen lying next to their father. "And it seems Solona and Daylen have found their father, but those Shadow Duelists that targeted will be back, and I will be waiting for them. Because Solona is my friend. And I protect my friends."
...
Meanwhile back in Domino city, the Elder One was with Livius, Samson and Calpernia.
"Can't you fools do anything right!" The Elder One snarled. "This is the fourth time the Venatori have failed to defeat that girl!"
"But Master, we tried our best!" Livius begged
"Well it is not good enough" The Elder One hissed. "Maybe it is time for a new plan."
"And what do you plan master?" Calpernia asked
"I sense that our Amell girl is about to face a new threat." The Elder One claimed. "I think it is time for us to withdraw until our girl has dealt with this new upcoming threat. But when her school year ends, we will come for her."
