"A trade? What the fuck for?" Kaiser demanded to know

"It's simple really, You give me The keys to the sacred beasts and I release your brother from this card," Bakura replies giving Kaiser his options.

"I swore on my life to keep them from people like you!" The blue-haired youth replied warning Bakura

The white-haired boy laughed.

"I suppose you should be joining your brother then!" he pulled out a machine And a blank card.

Kaiser went wide-eyed.

"Wait!. Here are the keys, I lost fair and square." he surrendered tossing the keys to Bakura who caught them before looking at Jaden who was still possessed.

"Jaden, If you don't snap out of it and kick that guys ass in my place I won't forgive you."

Hearing this he suddenly flinched for a brief moment.

Bakura smirked and turned on the machine and a light flashed before he held up the remains of a now carded Kaiser to go along with his brother.

"Now I have enough power to kick paradoxes ass and gain that Numerons code for myself and change the world to my liking."

"I wouldn't count on it" A voice echoed in the distance.

Bakura turned around in surprise.

"Who said that?!"

From above the trees Paradox was sitting looking down on him.

"You're out of time. You belong to the past world and it is time to give Ryou back his body. You're lucky to even be here at all. did you notice that you have been slowly fading?"

Upon hearing this Bakura began to get scared and angry.

"No! Not yet! I still have time! I should still have time!"

Paradox sighed.

"You won't even get the Numerons code if you aren't here to grab it! Give up!"

Suddenly a burst of darkness came from Bakura's body and a deep growl was emitted from the depths of his soul.

Paradox smirked.

"You aren't going to give up, are you? hey, you're finally awake huh, Zorc? And you're just in time for the ceremony! Our other guest should be here in…..3...2-"

As if on queue for that final countdown the machine that Yuya and Yuto were attached to lit up as everyone in the room stepped back in terror., Yuya and Yutos bodies lit up as they both began to panic and sweat in pain. Suddenly it felt like something was being torn out of their soul as a terrifying aura filled the room. Only the screams of the two counterparts could be heard as the room was suddenly blinded by a flash of light.

"-1"

Paradox completed the countdown and when everyone came to Yuya and Yuto lay unconscious on the floor. They were not alone.

~~x~~

Yuya opened his eyes and was instantly greeted by the stares of everyone in the room.

"What-Where i-what happened?"

Everyone sorta stayed silent as Yuya looked down and Yuto was asleep on Yuya's lap holding a small child with white and green hair with demon features to match the two counterparts.

Yuya's face turned to beat red

"Th-This is our child?"

The small boy grabbed onto Yuya's tail softly as He gently smiled back to the small boy looking up at him.

Suddenly Yuya glanced around the room to notice the terrified looks at everyone else's faces as he began to frown.

After all, everyone had to watch him get sexually harassed and just heard the awful story behind this mess.

Yuya was about to speak when suddenly he felt something behind him.

He turned around to be greeted by a giant green and black dragon three times the size of Odd eyes and Dark rebellion.

Standing on top of that dragon was a humanoid dragon hybrid who looked to be about 18 years of age with the same type of hair as the child Yuto was holding.

The dragon aimed at Yuya rearing to attack.

Yuya braced himself thinking he was done for but instead he, Yuto, and the other child was pushed out of the way by a woman who seemed to be about the same age as the man.

Leo widened his eyes.

"It can't be!"

The woman stood up after the impact, pointing at Leo.

"You made a mess father and now you need to fix it!"

"Ray?!"

Yuya looked in awe

"Wait a minute? If this is Ray what happened to Yuzu?!"

"Wheres Rin?!" Yugo added.

Ray frowned

"They are in me but I am going to have father fix everything and bring them back."

Leo looked hurt.

"But you're finally back..."

Ray looked upset.

"I never wanted this."

The half-dragon hybrid growled in anger upon seeing Ray.

"You again!? Are you here to split me apart once again? I finally regained my form by using my own reincarnations as a pawn! while their child's soul was developing I attached my broken soul into them so I could be revived when the child was born, as a result, I corrupted their bodies and their child now takes on my look like a side effect but I was never a twin to that inferior child. I am Zarc. get one thing straight here."

Yuya looked angry and hurt him and Yuto was used. The small child in their arms may be theirs but in the process of the exchange somehow they became the host of this evil spirit who seemed to view everyone as exchangeable and for this, they can never go back to being human.

Yuto began to open his eyes, as the small boy looked afraid.

Yuto smiled at him and whispered

Your daddy's will keep you safe let's go, come on Yuya.

Yuya looked worried

"Where do we even go?"

Suddenly there was a crash and the walls started shaking.

Yuto looked outside as Paradox had been avoiding attacks by a giant dark purple monster with a long phallus that was shaped like a dragon head.

"What the heck is that!?" Sawatari yelled.

Yugi looked horrified.

Its Zorc.

Yuma looked at him confused.

"Uh Zarc is right here."

"No that's Zarc. This is someone else. This is Zorc. he's a terrifying monster that Atem and I had to fight."

"Why is he fighting Paradox?" Asked Yuya.

Jaden ran in.

"apparently he's after Numerons code."

Zarcs eyes widened.

"Numerons code you say? With that, I could rewrite everything."

"Not if I get to it first" Zorc spit fire with the intent to Incinerate Zarcs face only to miss and catching fire to the building itself.

"Everyone get out of here" Yushou yelled.

Odd eyes and Dark rebellion nodded to each other and started to grab a few members of the group and drag them to safety away from the building.

The others in the room began to summon their monsters as well to do the same.

Yuya kept looking around the room to make sure everyone else was safe but he couldn't find anyone

He began to cough because of the smoke filling his lungs before he realized he was all by himself.

Where were Yuto and their child?

Yuya eyes began to form tears

Was he going to die here? All by himself in the fire?

"Yuya!" A voice echoed out from atop of a wooden pillar.

It was Yuto who was holding the small boy.

"Yuto!? How did you get up there?!"

"No time to talk about that! Right now we gotta get out of here and stop the battle between those two before things get out of hand."

Yuya slowly got up off the ground as the fire around him singed at his skin as he coughed. He slowly began to limp towards the window and managed to prop himself up before realizing he was on the top floor of the building.

"There's no way down! What am I going to do?!"

Yuto jumped down from the pillar and looked Yuya in the eye.

"Yuya… Trust me. You just need to jump."

Yuya panicked

"Are you crazy? That's too high up! We will die!"

"You won't die because we are going to have an entertainment duel to bring peace to the world and you need to survive for that" Yuto replied.

Yuya looked down.

"Yuto I don't think you understand how high up we are"

Yuto leaned in closer and kissed Yuya on the lips.

"Just do it."

Yuya turned red then gulped as he managed to push himself out the window screaming. He expected himself to go splat

Nothing happened...

He opened his eyes as he saw himself hovering in the air.

"What!?"

Yuto laughed

"You have wings you dingus"

Yuya looked at his back as his wings were fluttering in the air as he narrowed his eyes and stuck his tongue out at Yuto.

Yuto smugly laughed as he followed Yuya down holding the small boy who was panicking because he was so high up as the wings of the little one were too new and small to fly.

Meanwhile, a raging battle was taking place between Zarc and Zorc who have forgotten about Paradox at this point and have been duking it out between each other in order to prove who was more rightful to gain the power to change the world. And there was much being destroyed in the process

The fluctuations of time has begun to have terrible consequences.

The darkness emitting from the two monsters has started to consume them,

Soon enough the disasters that have to lead up to all this will destroy the fabric of reality altogether

Nothing would survive unless someone put a stop to it

That time had to be now.

The world has no meaning if everything is destroyed...

The world has no meaning...

The world is ending...

Someone, please give a sign...

Someone, please give a-

"Ladies and Gentlemen!"

The sound of fighting went silent as all eyes turned to the boy with crimson eyes and a smile like a sun.

Yuya Sakaki, his boyfriend Yuto and of course the little one who has no name stand on top of the world holding Numerons code and a pendulum in his other hand.

Paradoxes' eyes widen at the realization the Numerons code was no longer in his possession.

"When did he?-"

"I'd like to invite you all to an entertainment duel! To show the world that happiness and duels can coexist without war and fighting! .And..in order to do this, I have obtained Numerons code… not for selfish reasons like world domination but for the good of everyone. A world where everyone is happy. A world where there is no separation between the dimensions. No war."

Paradox smirked

"So you plan to use the code for the sake of everyone...I suppose this I did not see coming… I think I have a little more hope in humanity. I look forward to this entertainment duel.

A flash of bright light began to form as the two monsters cursed

"No! It can't be! Leo I will get my revenge " Zarc yelled

Zorc screamed in agony as the light engulfed the entire world before disappearing.

Paradox muttered before the light engulfed everything.

"I look forward to your duel with smiles."

~~~x~~~

"Daddy Daddy I have been waiting for you!"

Yuto smiled at his and Yuyas son, Zarc who held flowers in his hand to congratulate Yuto and his new husband Yuya for getting married.

It has been a few years since that battle and the world was rewritten and although Yuya and Yuto never did get a chance to go back to being human, they managed to bring back all the counterparts including ray as well, as making the entire world into one dimension. All the people who were carded came back and we're reunited with their families.

Granted there was still work to be done.

And as for a celebration to the boys wedding, they decided to hold the entertainment duel of a lifetime

"Are you ready to see your other daddy duel?

Zarc smiled.

"Let's go."

Four dimensions: Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and Standard make up the universe we see today. Each of the four dimensions contains a story and while they are all separate one thing remains the same: Duel Monsters.

This is the story of how the boy Yuto finally found hope.
