Happy Fourth of July! Here is the LAST chapter!

PEACE

When everything returned to normal, heroic duo's appearances reverted to their original features. Yami Yugi's suntanned skin hued back to peach and his Egyptian attire was replaced by his modern school clothes and Cypress descendant Ash Ketchum was back in his Hoenn style as well. They were back in the real world. They are now standing in a valley, on field of grass and flowers.

The war was over. the great evil Cerberus was defeated. The two worlds of Pokémon and Duel Monsters were saved, thanks to the brave heroes, Ash Ketchum, Yugi Muto, the pharaoh, and of course, Cypress and his Pikachu.

"Thank you, Cypress." Ash looked up and thanked his ancestor. "Thank you for helping us."

"Pi Pikachu!" It also thanked its ancestor.

Yugi Muto, who had switched with the pharaoh, turned to the mountains behind them. "Thank you, Entei, Suicune, and Raikou." He gratified. "We couldn't have saved the world without your help, guys."

The three legendary beasts nodded their heads in respect and left, departing in separate ways.

Exhausted, the two boys collapsed onto the soft grass. "Phew! I'm glad that's all over!" Ash said as he laid back down.

"Pikachu!" It too jumped on its bottom, next to Ash.

"My god cards are safely back in my hands!" Yugi said, looking at his three recovered god cards. "I'll be sure that they'll never fall into the wrong hands again." He obligately put those cards in his jacket where they'll be more secured and this time, out of anyone's reach.

"You know, you were pretty great at handling Pokémon, Yugi." Ash credited.

"And you were pretty skilled at dueling monsters, Ash." The spiky haired teen said. "It's incredible how we find out what we can do, especially after all turmoil and frictions we went through."

Ash placed his hand on his friend's shoulder. "I think it was all worth it. We wrote our own epic tale that can be told generation to generation."

The boys smiled as they each other held their own tools, Ash looked his Poké balls attached on his belt and Yugi checked his deck in his belt pouch and rubbed his duel disk.

"Pikachu." It perked its ears up and down.

The boys smiled at each other when they heard a bunch of voices calling their names. "Ash! Yugi!"

"Huh?" The boys looked around in response of those sounds.

"Pika?"

"Ash! Yugi!"

The boys stood up and saw a group of people coming into view uphill. Ash and Yugi lit up with joy as they recognized their loved ones. "Hey, guys!" Ash waved.

"Yugi!" Joey, Téa, and Tristan called in unison.

"Ash!" Brock, May, and Max called. Professor Oak, Solomon, Delia, Tracey, Gary, Mokuba, and Kaiba followed behind them.

"Hey, you guys!" Yugi grinned and waved his both arms.

"Pikachu!"

Ash and Yugi were finally reunited with their friends and loved ones.

"My Ash!" Delia squealed and seized her son in a squeezing hug.

"Oh, Mom!" Ash smiled through his mother's arms.

"Grandpa!" Yugi cheered and jumped on his grandfather, wrapping his arms and legs around him.

"That's my grandson!" Solomon chuckled.

The rest of the friends gathered round to salute their leaders. May and Tèa hugged their male friends tightly in joy. Bakura and Tracey smiled placed each other's arms over their shoulders. Professor Oak, Solomon, and Delia were extremely proud of their young ones. Brock, Joey, and Tristan grinned and gave them thumbs up while Max (who jumped up and down) and Mokuba praised with ecstasy. Gary and Kaiba just stood there, looking slightly proud.

"I can't believe you guys defeated Cerberus!" Brock said.

"You guys are awesome!" Max added.

"We're so proud of you guys!" Téa said.

"I bet Team Rocket won't be bothering you guys for a while." Joey said.

"So what happened with Team Rocket afterwards?" Tristan asked. "Give us the details."

"Believe me, it's a long story." Ash simply answered.

"Pika, Pika."

"It's a epic full of excitement, thrills, and tension that not even the brilliant historians could put it in their books." Yugi added.

"That's for sure," Solomon chuckled.

Everybody laughed.

Ash and Yugi paused and looked and saw that valley was overran by dozens of trainers and duelists together who lauded them as heroes. The boys beamed and waved back to the populace. Among them was Maximilian Pegasus.

"Pika Pika!"

"You saved more than just the world, you bought duelists and trainers together," Pegasus stated. "Heroes like you should be rewarded." He thought carefully. "Let me think...how should you boys be rewarded?"

The kids listened with curiosity.

"Hmm?" The group looked at the white-haired man with mystery.

"Come with me. I've got a surprise for you." Pegasus added with a wink.

"That's what I'm afraid of," Kaiba said.

"Where do you think he's going to take us?" Max said.

"Guess, we'll have to find out." Yugi said.

At the next scene, Ash, Yugi, Pikachu, and co. were standing in front of a pair of closed gates at some theme park.

"Okay, what exactly are we looking at?" Téa asked.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I give you...Poke-Oh!" Pegasus presented. "Opened to both worlds! Duelists and trainers welcome!" He cut the red ribbon, officially opening up the new park.

Everyone praised excitedly and started rushing into the park, trampling on the guards.

Ash, Yugi, and co. looked at each other and grinned. Even Kaiba and Gary looked slightly amused and smirked.

And so, Pokemon gang and card-dueling team decided to reward themselves by attending the biggest and probably most funnest amusement park of both worlds, for both trainers and duelists, and for Pokémon and Duel Monsters.

Each pair of characters went together on the rides. Ash, Yugi (who were in front row) Brock, Joey, Tracey, and Tristan rode the Blue Eyes Dragon roller coaster. They screamed loudly like girls as the coaster zoomed up and down and from loop-to-loop at lightning speed. A photo finish captured their expressions and and faces.

There was also a Hoppip ferris where each car carried two people such as Téa and Tracey, Tristan and Delia, and May and Kaiba.

There were other parts of the park where Pokémon dropped off by their trainers can hang out.

There were even spots where holographic monsters appear fully in reality and they could interact with people and have friendly duels with the others monsters and duelists.

The girls Tèa, May, Mai, Misty, Rebecca Hawkins, and Casey wore cute and pretty bikinis in a water park area.

In the Tunnel of Love, lots of paired trainers and duelists rode on Dewgong shaped boats. Misty, in her boat, was enjoying the pool of water Pokémon when she was encountered by Mako Tsunami, the fisherman duelist who offered her a water lotus as flirtation. Of course, Misty preferred battling.

The Team Rocket duelists, Billy and Kidd also arrived at the park, but this time they're not here to make trouble. Yugi and Ash noticed them and, seeing that they are no threat anymore, invited them over to games. Billy and Kidd looked at each other and thought what the heck.

In the sparring zone, Mossdeep City gym leader twins Tate and Liza faced off against the Paradox Brothers in a battle-duel while on the other ring, the Ishtar siblings, Odion, Ishizu, and Marik faced off against the other trio of gym leaders Wattson, Flannery, and Brawly.

Professor Oak and Solomon participated in a bunch of game booths and, with their knowledge of Pokémon and experience with games, had a blast winning them, figuring out riddles, and guessing correctly of heavy Pokémon's weights.

Téa and May danced on the floor room, when their male rivals, Drew and Johnny Steps encountered and challenged them. The female duo clapped hands in teamwork and think it's time to settle the score with the, once and for all.

Joey, Tristan, Munchlax, and Brock competed in a eating contest. Joey won while his opponents fell down with stomachaches, even the food-eating Pokémon. Tracey and Bakura did some sketching on some of the Duel Monsters and Pokémon.

At the photo booth, Solomon and Delia decided to take pictures. They posed in casual, cute, and silly ways. In the the next photo shot, Solomon unwittingly held his supposed-to-be-just-buddy's around the waist. Embarrassed, Delia jabbed the old man in the gut by her elbow.

Max and Mokuba walked around the amusement park together. They visited a haunted house which was filled with cheap scary props, flying "ghost" blankets, and plain old monsters holograms that the boys just walked through them. Max and Mokuba grew bored from seeing the same old predicable haunted house ride. When they stepped into a cemetery, they were encountered by a horde of zombies, ghouls, and walking skeletons. At first, Mokuba and Max thought the monsters were just robots attempting to scare the attenders...until zombies and ghouls moved closer and reached out their bony and rotting hands towards them.

The boys, realizing they are real, exclaimed in fright and fled out of the haunted house.

The "real" zombies turned out to be actual Duel Monsters which were controlled by Bonz, Zyger, and Sid snickered at their dirty trick, but the tables turned on them when they were frightened by the ghost trio, Ghastly, Haunter, and Gengar, owned by Agatha of the Elite Four.

Espa Roba the psychic duelist got acquainted with Winona the Fortree City gym leader. She let his younger identical brothers ride on her Skymory.

At the food court, Brock was flirting with Serenity Wheeler, much to Joey and Tristan's displeasure. Then Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy walked by and the boys went goo-goo eyes and fluttered after them which made Brock jealous now.

There was also a playground where Pokémon and Duel Monsters can spar at each other in a friendly completion or even hang around. Baby Dragon chased over Charmander, Mudkip, Squirtle, and Lotad. Thunder Kid bonded with Elekid. Skitty played with Marshmallon, and Clefairy played with Happy Lover.

Pikachu and Kuriboh were playing leapfrog when they heard pop rock music warming up.

"Pi?"

"Boh?"

They turned and found their owners Ash and Yugi stood at the Karaoke stage, starting their duet. "Til' the end, I will be with you!" Everybody around the platform, starting moving and clapping to the beat. Joey and Tristan posed as backup dancers behind their friends on stage, along with a line of Cleffa and Igglybuff. "We will go where our dreams come true! All the times we've been through, you will always be my best friends!"

Ash started. "Here we are, on a new adventure, danger lurks somewhere in the darkness!"

"We are set for surprises, even battles!" Yugi sang next. "We're a team, no one better mess with us!"

"If we stand as one, there's nothing to fear! We'll beat the darkness and we'll stay right here!" Ash continued.

Mokuba was also present there, shaking his tambourine while Kaiba stood with his arms folded, not caring. Though he secretly drummed his fingers in rhythm.

"Spend time after time, that's how it'll be!"

"Just you and me!" The boys chorused together.

Everyone took turns next singing a verse on stage. "Til' the end, I will be with you!" Brock sang.

"We will go where our dreams come true!" Joey sang his spotlight next.

"All the times that we have been through!" May took a chance.

"You will always be my best...friends!" Pegasus sang in falsetto. "Oooooohhhh! My Deeeeaaaar B-e-e-e-est Frii-eends to the eeeend!" He sang like an opera singer.

Now Pikachu and Kuriboh get a chance to sing on stage. "Pi Pi Pi Pika, Pikachu!" It vocalized through the mike. "Chu Chu Chu!"

Kuriboh chittered along through the speaker.

"It's your turn, Pharaoh!" Yugi persuaded. "Why don't you take from here?"

"What?" The pharaoh appeared from the Millennium Puzzle.

"Yeah," Ash smirked. "I'd like to see you sing."

"Pika Pika!"

Yami has been forced on stage in front of the audience who chanted "Yugi!".

"Don't worry, Pharaoh. I'll help with the words!" Ash said and took a deep breath.

Yami smirked and swipe-tripped his duet partner of his feet, preventing him from singing his line. "Wha!" Ash yelped as he fell down. He sat up, looking confused. "Hey!"

"I will rise up like the new moon," the stage-hogging pharaoh alternated the lyrics. "My name will shine like the sparkles in the blue lagoon. Someday, I will find my way home, but until then I shall feel like, JUST LIKE HOME." Yami sang the last lines in front of the girls, May, Tèa, Casey, and Rebecca who swooned lovingly.

After finishing his debut, Yami's spirit retreated back to the Millennium Puzzle. Ash and Yugi looked at each other and chuckled. Jigglypuff, the singing Pokémon appeared on stag in front of the boys. Ash and Yugi freaked out. The pink Pokemon sang one line and the boys went out like lights. As usual, Jigglypuff puffed up in anger and drew silly squiggles on both of their sleeping faces.

A few seconds later, Pikachu woke them up by using Thundershock on the boys.

Aroused, Ash and Yugi jumped off stage, having to be carried by the crowd trainers and duelists. "Pika Pika!" He and Kuriboh are also carried off by the fans.

The crowd gently put the boys down and Ash and Yugi walked among the crowd who cleared a path for them. Ash, Yugi, Pikachu, and Kuriboh were shortly joined by their friends. Brock, Joey, Tristan, May, Téa, Max, Mokuba, Bakura, Tracey, Professor Oak, Solomon, Gary, and Kaiba jubilantly strode side-by-side, savoring their last day together. Thereafter, they would have to return to their worlds and continue their lives.

Colorful fireworks boomed into the sky, shaping colorful outlines of Pokémon and Duel Monsters. In the end, Mew was last seen flying in the sparkling sky, knowing that the world is at peace once again. "Mew!" It meowed and winked in blessing and took off somewhere in the usual unknown.

Soon everything was back to normal. The trainers returned to their world and the duelists went back to theirs. Almost everything would be just the same as before.

Before leaving Domino City, Ash, Pikachu, Brock, May, and Max had said their goodbyes to Yugi, Joey, Téa, and Tristan and wished the pharaoh good luck on finding the rest of his memories before heading back and continue on their journey. Ash requested that when that time comes, tell his ancestor "hello" for him. Yugi nodded and wished his trainer friends all good luck on the rest of their journey. He especially petted Pikachu on the head and told it to look after Ash and his friends. May hugged Yugi one last time, claiming she doesn't wanna leave, much to Téa's annoyance. The two teams of friends then waved to each other farewells as the trainers left Domino City.

Ash, Pikachu, May, Brock, and Max traveled all the way back to Hoenn region, exploring the rest of the world of Pokémon.

Professor Oak returned to his research lab to proceed his work at studying Pokémon and unlocking secrets within the Pokémon world. Tracey was in the Oak Corral feeding the Pokémon. So yep, everything was pretty much back to normal.

Yugi went back to dueling. At his high school class, he resharpened his skills with several classmates. Joey also made sure his dueling hadn't grow rusty by having a rematch with Tristan.

Solomon swept outside of his game shop.

Kaiba continued his work at his office computer while his younger brother Mokuba kept a lookout the window.

Pegasus had to go back to his island. He continued his role as president of Industrial Illusions.

Elsewhere, Billy and Kidd were seen hanging around in their motorcycle garage. Apparently, they decided to quit Team Rocket and give up rare card hunting to start new lives.

At the Domino Pier, Ryou Bakura sat on edge of the boardwalk, watching the sun set in the ocean. His little buddy Zoroa sat by his side as his new comrade and partner. Bakura smiled as he is at peace and free of the evil spirit and hoped to keep it longer.

The trainers set up camp for the night. Ash was digging in his backpack when he found a Wattsquirrel card in his backpack and thought about his friend on the opposite side of the world.

In the Kame Game Shop, Yugi was lying on his bed, looking at the stars from his roof window. As he sat up, he felt something in his back pocket and pulled it out. In his palm is an empty small Poké ball, it immediately made him think of his ally on the other side of the world.

The boys both knew that even when they live in different worlds, they will always be friends. And they will never forget their adventure they went through together and the experiences they shared with each other, with Pokémon and Duel Monsters. Someday, they will be reunited their ancestors, especially Cypress who was an ally to the great pharaoh in the ancient past.

EPILOGUE:

Somewhere out there, the failed group, Jessie, James, Rex, Weevil, and Meowth were stuck hanging from the tallest sequoia by their clothing snagged onto a long branch. "Unh...remind me how got stuck up here?" Rex spoke up.

"Oooohhhh...this bites!" James moaned. "I'm so tired being hung over!"

"I'm so dizzy!" Meowth whined. "I'm afraid of heights!"

"Quit your blubbering! It's your fault we're in this mess!" Weevil snapped.

"Excuse me? Our fault?!" James shrilled. "We gave you second chances and let you guys be in our team!"

"Yeah, and look what got us in!" Rex said. "If you ask me, you guys are the biggest losers than us!"

"How dare you! If my hands weren't stuck in the branches, I would have spank you rotten little brats!" Jessie snarled.

"Oh shut up, you nagging old bat!" Weevil retorted.

"Excuse me?! HOW DARE YOU CALLED ME A NAGGING OLD BAT!" Jessie shrieked.

"You wanna piece of me, you nagging old bat?" Weevil started.

"With a side order of your teeth because I'm going to kick them out, you ungrateful little worm!" Jessie snapped

"Bring it on!"

The hotheaded duo squabbled and spat, kicking long legs and throwing short arms and fists at each other.

"Is this what you guys go through everyday?" Rex asked the blue haired teenager.

"Not really, Rex," James answered bluntly. "Sometimes we end up blasting off and sometimes we landed up on high places..."

"And occasionally, we end up on safe ground...that is, where the worse awaits you," Meowth added.

"Mmm...Well, it can't get any lamer than this." Rex said.

"Wobbuffet!" The blue patient Pokémon popped out of Jessie's Poké Ball and joined its stuck friends.

"Ergh! I stand corrected!" Rex groaned. Everybody groaned in dismay.
