"Dakini's effect will activate once more," Tenjouin said. "And once more, you only have one monster. Dakini, destroy Zerato!"
Zerato roared as its body was pierced by Dakini's swords, and it toppled over to the ground, grunting in pain.
"Dark Angel... Zerato..." Shougo muttered. "How dare you do that to him?"
"Shougo-kun, or Darkness... whoever you are," Tenjouin said as she narrowed her steely eyes. "I'm no longer holding back. This is a real duel now. And I won't waste time with despair or regret. I am Tenjouin Asuka, head professor of Duel Academia, and I'll protect my students by defeating you... no matter what happens."
-------------
YU-GI-OH! -0
Turn Twenty: "No Regrets! White Veil, Activate"
-------------
Tenjouin - 2700
Shougo - 4100
There was a dead silence in the air.
"What's with the repressive environment?" Chiba asked. "I... I feel like I can barely move."
"This is Darkness' effect on a human being," Toragami explained. "You will feel down, remorseful, regretful. Many negative emotions prey on your soul."
"Whatever it is," Aino thought aloud. "It doesn't seem to be affecting Tenjouin-sensei at all."
Toragami nodded. "She's finally understood what's at stake."
"I'm never going to forgive you for destroying my Dark Angel Zerato," Shougo said. "He... when I used him to defeat Horiuchi-kun..."
Toragami gasped suddenly.
"Toragami-sama?" Katsuki asked.
But Toragami stayed silent.
Katsuki glanced at Aino, who shrugged. They were both surprised to see Toragami react in this way. Toragami had never shown such an expression of shock towards anything.
"Horiuchi-kun, and all those people... they just hated me and I didn't know why." Shougo hugged himself as he reflected on the past. "But... now I know. They hated me because I'm Darkness. I'm a bad person!"
"That's not true, Shougo-kun!" Chiba shouted. "How could they possibly know that? *You* didn't even know that!"
"Chiba-kun?" Shougo glanced at Chiba with sad eyes.
"Sho...Shougo-kun?"
"...Did *you* know?"
Chiba looked down and held his hand against his head.
"Shougo-kun!" Tenjouin shouted. "What happened to all your zeal before? It's your turn. Make your move!"
"Oh... of course." Shougo's innate scowl returned. "It's time, then, Tenjouin-sensei, to introduce you to my true form. The soul that resides within this body."
"What are you talking about?" Tenjouin asked.
"Rather than talk about it, why don't I show you?" Shougo grinned madly and took a card from his hand and threw it on his duel disk, hard. "I summon Dark King Prometheus in attack mode!"
With surprisingly little preceding fanfare, a hooded robe simply appeared from the ground, and a shadowy, human-looking figure formed inside it. The only thing visible in its hood were a pair of menacing yellow eyes.
Dark King Prometheus - LV4 Dark Demon (1200 ATK)
Chiba took a step back. "That's... Shougo's true form?" He felt his insides respond with panic, making strange sounds, and he clutched his chest. 'What's this horrible feeling of terror inside me? I feel... sick...'
"Are you okay, Chiba?" Isabel asked, then started to feel the same way. She dropped to her knees and sighed, trying to keep the pain from making her scream.
Aino and Katsuki suffered similar symptoms. Toragami just stood as usual, although her eyes began to shimmer as if with tears.
Tenjouin, however, was unaffected.
Shougo continued with the game. "Dark King Prometheus's effect, activate! By removing any number of Dark monsters in my cemetery from play, he'll gain 400 attack points for each one!"
The images of several monsters appeared behind Shougo. They seemed to be roaring in pain as, from the bottom up, they were transformed into black energy.
"I remove Wicked Emperor Gaius, Dark Armed Dragon, Dark Angel Zerato, Newdoria and D-HERO Diabolicguy from the game," Shougo declared. "And thus, Prometheus gains 2000 attack points!"
The cloaked figure could be heard to chuckle as the dark power was drawn into his hands.
Dark King Prometheus (1200 ATK + 2000 = 3200 ATK)
"And don't forget the effect of my magic card Soul Absorption," Shougo reminded his opponent. "I gain 500 life points each time a monster is removed from play!" White light shimmered around him once again.
Shougo - 4100 LP + 2500 = 6600 LP
"Sixty six... hundred..." Katsuki grunted through agonized tears.
"H...how can Ten...Tenjouin-sensei win now?..." Isabel muttered.
Tenjouin continued to be calm.
As the cold wind air blew and the water crashed up against the boardwalk, she meditated on her past. When she had fought Titan to restore her brother's memories. When she'd lost to Manjoume and become a member of the Society of Light. When Judai restored her heart by melting the ice within it with his fiery passion...
"Sleepyhead!" he had said.
"The you controlled by Saiou is kind of boring... uncool, you know," he had said on another occasion.
'Perhaps boring and uncool are what I need to be now,' Tenjouin thought. 'I am an adult. I can no longer be concerned with things like having a good time. Now, I must protect my students, with my life if need be.'
"You look surprisingly calm," Shougo said. "Perhaps you're thinking all you'll lose is your Snow Sprite or Dakini. But, no... the game ends on this turn! Because the facedown I have had from the beginning is... 'Return from the Different Dimension', which I'll activate now!"
"No!" Aino gasped.
"Not that card!" Chiba shouted through his pain.
"I pay half of my life points first," Shougo said, and then started to grumble as a pink aura surrounded him. As the trap drained his life points away, one could see veins begin to pop up along his body, as his teeth began to grind. At first, it was just a little wincing, but then Shougo threw his head back, shouting something that was both a cry of pain and laughter at once.
When the aura subsided, his life points at 3300, he dropped his head for a second, his breathing labored, until he lifted his head.
Shougo - 6600 LP / 2 = 3300 LP
Once he'd recovered his wits, he stood erect and chuckled. "Now with that out of the way, I can summon all the monsters that I've removed from play!"
The trap card was forced back facedown and encased in a block of ice.
"What just happened?!" Shougo shouted.
"I won't let you do that," Tenjouin said. "Reverse card open... 'Instant Freezing'. This card negates the activation of a magic or trap card and flips it back facedown. You won't be able to activate it for three more turns."
"B...but my life points..."
"Payment on a card," Tenjouin said. "You don't get that back if the card is negated."
"No!" Shougo shouted. "N...G...Damn you, Tenjouin Asuka! Damn you to hell! I'm going to hurt you for that! I'm going to pull your soul out of your body with my own hands!"
"I see," Tenjouin said, the slightest hint of sadness in her voice. "If you believe you're an evil person, then that's what you are. Evil people have no right to exist in this world. Shougo... today, I will end your life."
"What?"
"Your existence will disappear through this Dark Duel." Tenjouin repeated.
"It's too early to be talking big!" Shougo shouted. "Prometheus is still here, and I'll have him attack your Snow Sprite now! Go, Prometheus! Dark Chained Secrets!"
Prometheus began to charge, black cloak trailing behind it as it neared Snow Sprite. A single blackened hand with knife-like nails at the end of each finger neared, when its movement suddenly froze.
Tenjouin shook her head. "Reverse card open, 'Ice Encounter'," she said. "I place an Ice Counter on your Prometheus. And because of Absolute Ice Wall, he cannot attack."
Ice began to creep along Dark King Prometheus, starting at its feet, and spreading up across its body. The layer of ice encased it, until it came to a stop at the tip of its fingers, barely an inch away from Snow Sprite's throat.
Dark King Prometheus (3200 ATK - 500 = 2700 ATK)
"So he lost somme attack power due to Absolute Ice Wall as well," Shougo said with a cynical grin. "Very well... I set one card and end my turn."
Prometheus' aura began to dissipate and its attack power dropped.
Dark King Prometheus (2700 ATK - 2000 = 700 ATK)
"Prometheus! What happened?" Shougo looked to be barely in control of himself.
The pain that afflicted Chiba and the others began to lessen. "What *did* happen?" Isabel asked Chiba.
"The power-up effect only lasts until the end of the turn," Chiba said after catching his breath. "Then it returns to normal."
"I guess... Shougo-kun intended to finish it on this turn," Aino mused. "Thank God that Tenjouin-sensei was prepared."
"You should not thank God for such trivial matters," Toragami said. "It's because of Tenjouin-sama's strength of heart and will that Shougo's plan was thwarted."
"Toragami-sama!" Katsuki said with surprise. "I didn't think you believed in things like that." She tried very hard to hide a smile.
"My turn," Tenjouin said. "Draw!" She moved quickly and without thought. "I activate from my hand the continuous magic card 'White Night Fort'."
The temperature in the duel arena decreased further.
"What does *that* do?" Shougo demanded. "Tell me!"
"It's very simple," Tenjouin responded. "Neither player can play trap cards on the opponent's turn."
"No!" Shougo took a step back. 'The 'Mirror Force' card I set is useless now!'
"Next," Tenjouin said, withdrawing a card from her hand. "I activate the magic card 'Swing of Fond Memories'."
The image of a young girl walking to a swing attached to a tree with a sunset in the background appeared.
"This card represents the agony I felt in my first years of Duel Academia, when my brother was in the grip of Darkness," Tenjouin said. "Would I give up those memories? The agony? As much as it pains me to say it, I had good times, too. And... I miss the pain, sometimes."
"Get to the point," Shougo spat.
"I can summon a Normal Monster from my cemetery," Tenjouin said. "And I choose the Gemini Elves."
The twin, tall female elves once again appeared, hand in hand.
Tenjouin stood straight and turned her head to her monsters. "Cyber Angel Dakini..."
Dakini nodded.
"Gemini Elves..."
The elves also nodded.
"I need your spirits to help me call on this monster. The one that will unlock the door to my past, and lead me to my future. I sacrifice Cyber Angel Dakini and Gemini Elves now to summon the unrivaled master of water and ice..."
The water in the sea began to rise, take the shape of a dragon and become ice. The wind whipped fiercely through the area where the duelists played and the observers watched.
"Could it be..." Chiba shouted.
"No way!" Isabel gasped.
The wind whipped Tenjouin's hair into a frenzy as she held the card in her hand. "Show yourself, Blue Ice White Nights Dragon!"
The congealing water took the shape of an ice dragon - the same one Mark had called on in his duel against Toragami. It let out a nerve-chilling roar as it spread its arms and wings aggressively.
Blue Ice White Nights Dragon - LV8 Water Dragon (3000 ATK)
"And that's not all." Tenjouin said. Her hand visibly trembled as it reached for the duel disk button that would activate her remaining facedown. "I finally activate... the equip magic... 'White Veil'."
The image of a woman surrounding herself in a white satin sheet appeared on the field and a thin sheen of light began to surround the White Nights Dragon.
"Secure the future of my students..."
The dragon reared back as a light glowed within its mouth.
"Secure the future of Duel Academia..."
Shougo shielded himself in preparation for the incoming blow.
"Secure my future! White Nights Dragon! Destroy Dark King Prometheus!"
The White Nights Dragon thrust itself forward and shot its blast at the frozen monster.
Tenjouin's eyes narrowed and her fist thrust out. "Freezing Burst Stream!"
In a moment, Dark King Prometheus was struck by the blast. Its outer covering of ice broke apart and its body broke apart. It gave a blood curdling final roar of pain which made everyone shudder.
Shougo, though, appeared unconcerned. "I send Kuriboh from my hand to the cemetery to negate the damage," he said.
"Unfortunately, it's not quite as simple as that," Tenjouin said. "When a monster equipped with White Veil attacks, the opponent's magic and trap cards are all destroyed."
"W... what?!" Shougo looked on either side of him as his frozen Return from the Different Dimension and his set Mirror Force card were destroyed.
"Not to mention the fact that Snow Sprite hasn't attacked yet," Tenjouin said. Snow Sprite raised its finger as energy began to gather around her fingertip, and then in an instant shot a ray of cold energy at Shougo's chest.
Shougo - 3300 LP - 1100 = 2200 LP
Shougo's body shuddered violently as he fell to one knee.
"Turn end," Tenjouin said.
"My turn," Shougo muttered painfully. "Draw!"
He eyed the card he drew. ''Heavy Storm'... thanks to that damn Snow Sprite, I can't use it.'
"I see you are holding no illusions that you will win this fight," Tenjouin said with a deadly smile.
"What did you say?" Shougo asked angrily.
"It's all over your face... Darkness," Tenjouin explained. "Despair. I see it. I see it as clearly as day."
"I'll teach you to underestimate me," Shougo retorted. "I set one monster card facedown and end my turn."
"My turn. Draw. I summon Cold Enchanter in attack mode."
An aqua-blue lady dressed in ice armor and holding a staff with a snowflake on one end appeared.
Cold Enchanter - LV4 Water Aqua (1600 ATK)
"Snow Sprite... attack Shougo's facedown."
"How cocky!" Shougo said with a laugh. "Attacking my facedown with such a weak monster!"
Tenjouin ignored him as the Snow Sprite did its finger attack once more. The flipped up card revealed a sickly looking gas cloud which erupted and surrounded the field in toxic fumes.
Giant Virus - LV2 Dark Demon (100 DEF)
"Too bad, Tenjouin-sensei," Shougo said, madly gritting his teeth. "When Giant Virus is destroyed, not only do you take 500 points of damage, but I get two more Virii on my field!"
The two balls of biotoxins appeared on the field.
Giant Virus (1000 ATK)
Giant Virus (1000 ATK)
The gas cloud surrounded Tenjouin and dropped her Life Points. Tenjouin had no visible reaction.
Tenjouin - 2700 LP - 500 = 2200 LP
"Cold Enchanter!" Tenjouin ordered. "Destroy Giant Virus!"
The Enchanter shot a snowflake out of its staff, which ruptured the virus and caused a wave of cold to slap against Shougo's body.
Shougo - 2200 LP - 600 = 1400 LP
Shougo continued to laugh. "500 more points of damage to you!" he said.
Tenjouin - 2200 LP - 500 = 1700 LP
"I wouldn't laugh if I were you..." Tenjouin said in a monotone voice. "Because you're about to die. Blue Ice White Nights Dragon! Destroy Giant Virus! Freezing Burst Stream!"
Shougo just laughed harder, chest heaving and arms thrown, as the dragon's icey attack pierced the other virus. The blast surrounded him and erupted around him in a blast of ice and wind.
Shougo - 1400 LP - 2000 = 0

Ayukawa was frantic with helping the unconscious children all on her own when one of them started to stir awake.
"Sensei... wh... what happened?" he said. "I was dueling, then next thing I know I'm on my back."
"Oi, sensei," another said. "What does a guy have to do to get some food around here?"
Ayukawa paused and clutched her notepad tight.
'Tenjouin-sensei...' she thought to herself. 'I pray you are the one who reached him first.'
--
Shougo's body was on the ground, battered and unconscious. Blood trickled from his mouth.
The purple flame aura around the players had disappeared, and Tenjouin's Solid Vision had turned off. It was a normal night. Wind blew through everyone's hair and the sea crashed against the boardwalk, which appeared to have suffered no damage.
"It... it... Sh..." Chiba stammered, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"Shougo's... d..." Isabel sniffed.
"Shougo's dead," Tenjouin whispered in a heartbroken voice. Her eyes had reverted to normal, and tears streamed from them.
Katsuki stepped backward, appearing shaken by the events, and sat down on her knees. Then, to everyone's surprise, she was the first one to burst into weeping.
Toragami did as everyone expected, though. Her face remained stoic with no sign of grief. She walked towards Shougo's body, calmly and deliberately.
When she passed Tenjouin, she paused and turned back.
"Did you forget, Tenjouin-sama?" she asked.
Tenjouin's eyes widened in remembrance.
--
"Toragami-san," she said, keeping her eyes closed. "Please do me a favor."
"Yes?"
"If I forget..." Tenjouin said softly, her head bowed. "Remind me."
Toragami looked somewhat surprised, but then she nodded her assent. "I understand," she
said simply. "And I will."
--
"Y... you..." Tenjouin cried out. "You did this on purpose! You didn't remind me, so I could kill Shougo-kun in your place! T-Toragami-san..."
"Do I seem like the kind of coward who would allow another to defeat my rival?"
Tenjouin's rage stopped in its tracks.
Toragami kept walking towards Shougo and knelt down at his body.
"Get it together, Aoyama Shougo," she said, reaching her hand out.
Shougo's body began to shake and tremble. Everyone gasped, not the least of which was Tenjouin.
His arm rised a bit, slowly at first, and then full on, and clasped Toragami's hand.
"T...Toragami-san..." he whispered. "Am... am I still Darkness?"
"No," Toragami said. "Darkness is dead."
Shougo gasped and his face became a smile. He burst into tears and grabbed Toragami in an embrace. "Toragami-san!" he cried.
To everyone's surprise, Toragami returned the embrace.
"This is too much craziness for one night," opined Katsuki, drying her eyes.
"But... how?" Chiba asked.
Toragami let go of Shougo, who remained kneeling on the ground, too weak to stand. She got up and looked at the sea.
"It... it makes sense," Tenjouin said. "That's why you didn't stop me, Toragami-san. I'm sorry I insulted you."
"Aoyama-san was ready to sacrifice his life... no, his existence to save the world from himself," Toragami said. "Becoming an individual... that was the end of Darkness. He's... he's stronger than me."
Everyone was silent as the sun began to rise. The wind began to blow, and for a moment, there was calm and peace in Duel Academia.
"We should get Aoyama-san back to the medical office," Tenjouin said, replacing her glasses as she stepped forward.
Toragami nodded and hummed, and reached for Shougo. "I'll help you up," she said.
"Thank you, Toragami-san," Shougo said, quietly accepting the help.
--
The damage to Shougo's body was, unfortunately, quite severe; while he bore no scarring or internal damage, his vital signs were quite below normal for the many months it took him to recover. The doctors that Ayukawa sent in all said it was a miracle he was still alive.
Nevertheless, his recovery was stable, if slow. Chiba, Isabel, Mark and Tenjouin visited him daily. Aino and Katsuki would even drop by on occasion.
Toragami, however, did not show up until a week before Shougo received a clean bill of health.
"Hello," she said when she arrived.
Shougo looked up from his bed. "I didn't think you'd come," he admitted.
"I don't want you to get the wrong idea, Aoyama-san," Toragami said with her arms behind her back. "I didn't save you because we're friends."
"Just don't tell me that we're eternal rivals or something," Shougo sighed. "I don't think I can handle that destiny."
"There's no such thing as 'eternal rival'," Toragami said. "One of us will surpass the other, and move on to bigger, better and brighter opponents. Someday that will happen, without a doubt."
"God, Toragami-san..." Shougo replied, moaning as he drew himself up from his bed. "Are you ever not serious? We could at least act like friends sometimes. I mean, if it weren't for you, I'd be dead."
"Aoyama-san, the truth is, I need you," Toragami said, taking a seat. "Light can't exist without the darkness."
"But I thought you said..."
"Don't mistake my words," Toragami said. "Darkness is dead... but when the sun goes down, the moon takes its place."
She got up from the chair and touched Shougo's deck that was laying on his nightstand.
"Your determination is still weak," she said. "I want you to be a strong rival for me. So that when we duel, we both can reveal all that is hidden within us."
Shougo's face became stern. "I understand," he said.
Toragami left on that note.
Shougo glanced at his deck and picked it up, looking through his cards. 'It's true... my determination is still weak,' he thought to himself. 'I'll do what I can to improve my recovery, and then... Toragami Hinata, I'll beat you for sure.'
He lay back with his arms behind his head and looked out the window. A crow and a dove flew together in the distance.
'And once I do...' he thought before he fell asleep. 'Perhaps you'll start to enjoy your life again.'

TODAY'S FEATURED CARD: The Equip Magic, "White Veil"
When the monster that is equipped with this card attacks, all your opponent's magic and trap cards' effects are negated and they are destroyed. However, if the equipped monster is destroyed, the owner pays a terrible price...
--
Shougo: "Seasons change, time passes, new faces appear and new duels occur."
Chiba: "That's surprisingly deep, Shougo-kun! You certainly have changed!"
Aino: "The announcement of the Midterm Exams is made - with the revival of the Genex Tournament."
Tenjouin: "The entire island will become a battlefield."
Aino: "But someone is intent on keeping Aoyama-kun from that battlefield and will go to any lengths to do it."
Shougo: "I won't run away from any battle again! Otherwise, I'll betray the rival that went as far as she did to save me!"
Aino: "Next time on Yu-Gi-Oh! Negative Zero: 'Return of Genex! The Deadly Shadow Reveals Itself'."
Chiba: "More bad guys? I don't like where this is going..."
