Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 059

"Shadows of Doubt, Part 2", known as "The Lone Light: Savior Demon Dragon" in the Japanese version, is the fifty ninth episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. It first aired in Japan on May 20, 2009.

The duel between Jack and Carly continues. When Carly seems to regain her senses, the spirit of the Earthbound Immortal takes control of her so that the Duel can continue. Now, Jack's only hope lies in the newest card in his Deck, Majestic Dragon.

Carly's childhood
Decade ago, in New Domino City, Carly was watching a Duel between two boys in which one of them had a "Flying Penguin" and sent it to directly attack the other boy, causing the other boy to lose. Carly took a picture of the winner, saying that was his third win in a row, pleasing the winning boy.

Later that same day, a friend of Carly asks her if Carly plans to be a reporter someday and Carly replies that she’s not sure. She also adds that she loves seeing people that are doing their best. Her friend says that's strange and that Carly can’t be happy herself if other people are doing their best. Carly says that’s she wouldn't say that and add that when she cheers on someone doing their best, she thinks she can do a little better herself. That alone make her happy.

The Turbo Duel
Inside the geoglyph, the Turbo Duel continues. Jack shows Carly her glasses and tells her to remember, saying that the Carly is still in her somewhere. Carly says that can’t be true. Both restart their Duel Runner and continue the duel. Carly says that she came back as a Dark Signer so she and Jack could rule the world. She tells Jack that this is what she desire and this is the fate that has been appointed to them.

Jack tells her that she’s wrong and that she’s the one who wake him up when he lost all directions after being toyed by a sham of a fate. After Jack says this, Carly remembers all the time she spent with Jack, saying that during the battle with Yusei, the old Jack died and it is time for the real Jack to live. She also add that it'll help him becoming a real king. Jack tells her that he hadn’t forget what she said and that’s why he followed her advice and deciding how he lived on his very own.

Jack activates Changing Destiny's second effect, in which they are two options : Regain Life Points equal to half the ATK of the monster whose attack was negated or inflict it as damage to the opponent. Jack said that the one who chooses this effect is Carly. Carly is shocked by this revelation. Fortune Lady Earth's ATK is 2800. Carly must choose to either recover 1400 Life Points or inflict 1400 points of direct damage to Jack. Carly thinks that Jack’s Life Points are only 800 and if she chooses to inflict damage, Jack will lose the duel. Carly asks Jack why he doesn't mind with taking damage when he was just squeezed by Earth's attack. Jack replies to her that it is so he could teach her that there’s no such thing as an appointed fate and that he believes in her. He also add that she must choose her own destiny. Carly thinks that Jack is a fool and that by flustering him such a great deal, he's ended up following what she's said. She also adds that, this time, she’ll make him hers.

About to choose the effect of inflicting damage to Jack, Carly looks into his eyes and remembers the time she spent with Jack. Unable to go through with hurting him, she instead chooses the effect to regain her Life Points, which brings her to 5000 life points. After that, her eyes turned back to normal. Jack calls out Carly’s name and wonders if she’s turned back to normal. Carly shows Jack she has and tells him that she really doesn’t want that kind of fight and Jack replies in agreement, saying that she’s not the type of person to hurt others.

Wanting to end the duel, Carly becomes possessed. The evil power of the Dark Signers takes over, saying that he doesn't care about Carly's desire. Saying that the duel between her and Jack is her fate appointed as a Dark Signer, the evil power is forcing Carly to continue. Jack asks the evil power if he’s the one who dragged Carly into the darkness. But the evil power tells Carly to continue the duel and to dispose of the Signer. Carly is now completely possessed by the evil power of the Dark Signers. Jack continues the duel, telling the evil power to unhand Carly.

Carly says that her turn isn’t over and activates the Spell Card, Speed Spell - Curse of Fate, in which when she has 2 or more Speed Counters, she can place 2 Cursed Counters on one of her monsters and, in exchange for not attacking, by removing one Cursed Counter, it inflicts damage to her opponent. But, during this turn, Earth has already attacked so she can’t activate the effect. She places 2 Cursed Counters on her Fortune Lady Earth, sets 2 card face-down and ends her turn. The possessed Carly tells Jack not to waste his turn on trying to get the old Carly back and laughs evilly.

Jack says that he's going to make the evil power pay for taking Carly. It’s Jack’s turn and he draws a card. Jack’s SPC goes to 3 and Carly’s SPC goes to 5.

Jack Special Summons Vice Dragon with 1000 ATK when only his opponent possess monsters on the field, although summoning by this effect, Vice Dragon’s original 2000 ATK is halved, and Normal Summons Dark Resonator with 1300 ATK. He use both of his monster to Synchro Summon Red Dragon Archfiend with 3000 ATK. The possessed Carly says that the dragon, which prove that Jack is a Signer, has finally appeared. But she'll turn the tables on it.

The possessed Carly activates the Trap Card, Class Change, in which she can upgrade one of her monsters by one level. She upgrades Fortune Lady Earth level by 1, which makes her Level 8. She also activates Earth’s effect, in which when it gains a level, it gains 400 ATK points. Earth’s ATK goes to 3200. Jack realizes that Earth’s ATK is greater than Red Dragon Archfiend’s ATK. The possessed Carly also activates Earth's other effect, that when a Fortune Lady levels up, it inflicts 400 points of damage. Fortune Lady Earth's effect inflicts 400 damage to Jack's Life Points and brings him down to 400. The possessed Carly laughs and tells Jack that his Life Points are like a flame on a flickering candle. She also adds that, during her next turn, she’ll completely deplete his Life Points.

Jack said he won’t allow that and activates the Spell Card, Speed Spell - Half Seize, in which when he has 3 Speed Counters or more, it halves one of his opponent’s monster’s ATK and he recovers Life Points equal to that amount. Fortune Lady Earth's ATK is halved to 1600 and Jack’s Life Points go to 2000. Jack says he’ll burn the evil power’s wicked heart to ashes with the flame of truth. Jack sends Red Dragon Archfiend to attack and destroys the Fortune Lady. The possessed Carly’s Life Points go to 3600 and her SPC go to 4. Jack begs Carly to open her eyes. The possessed Carly loses control of her Duel Runner and rides into the flames of the geoglyph, which worries Jack.

Dark Signers lair
At the Dark Signers lair, Crow, Trudge, Leo, and Luna look at the Ener-D, where Yusei has fallen into.

Netherworld
Yusei is suspended in midair in the darkness of the Netherworld when he sees a light. He questions the light that seems to be calling him.

Yusei begins walking and finds himself near a river. A light figure appears and tells him that that Yusei doesn't belong to this world just yet. Yusei asks the figure if he’s the one who guided Yusei the way and Yusei calls the figure father. The figure takes the form of Professor Fudo and Yusei knew the figure was his father. Professor Fudo apologizes to his son, hoping that his Yusei can forgive him for burdening him with such an outrageous destiny. Professor Fudo begins to fade and Yusei begs him to wait. Professor Fudo tells his son that destiny can and will be changed as he continues to fade. Yusei continues to pursue his father, calling out to him. Professor Fudo tells Yusei that they are people who are truly waiting for him down the path he'll proceed. Yusei keeps begging his father to stay but Professor Fudo has faded away.

Back to the World of the Living
Trudge, Crow, Leo, and Luna suddenly see a light coming out from the Ener-D and notice Yusei floating within the light. The light disappears and Yusei begins to float down slowly to his friends. The twins are happy to see Yusei back and Trudge and Crow catch him. Everyone calls for Yusei to wake up, in which he does.

Yusei sees everyone looking at him and wonders if he’s back. Crow says that Yusei seems fine. Trudge wonders how Yusei managed to get back and Leo tells him that Yusei is safe now, so who cares how he got back and says that this is why adults are hopeless. Yusei thinks he has everyone worried.

Crow tells Yusei that they can’t waste any time and Leo agrees with him. Yusei also agrees and says if the 2 remaining towers aren’t sealed up before sunset, the King of the Netherworld will revive.

Back to the Turbo Duel
Jack still searches for Carly inside the geoglyph, calling out for her to answer him. The possessed Carly rides out of the geoglyph’s flames and activates the Trap Card, "Inherited Fortune", in which when a Fortune Lady is destroyed, she can Special Summon up to 2 Fortune Lady cards from her hand on her next turn. Jack sets 1 card face-down and ends his turn. He thinks no matter what he does, he will save her.

It’s the possessed Carly’s turn and she draws a card. Carly’s SPC go to 5 and Jack’s SPC go to 4. Jack asks Carly if she is all right, but the possessed Carly tells him that Carly doesn't exist. "Inherited Fortune's" effect Special Summons "Fortune Lady Wind" with 900 ATK and Fortune Lady Water with 1200 ATK. She activates Water’s effect, in which she draws a card for each Fortune Lady on her field. She draws 2 more cards from her Deck. She draws Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu and the Trap Card, Earthbound Release. Looking at her draw, the possessed Carly laughs and tells Jack to serve her as her sacrifice. She sacrifices both her monster to Tribute Summon Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu with 2500 ATK. Jack sees the shell-like device containing the souls of half of the citizens of New Domino City then tells himself that if the real Carly were to witness this scene, she’ll blame and lament herself.

After the appearance of her Earthbound Immortal, the possessed Carly send Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu to attack Jack directly and tells Jack that he'll receive the judgment of Aslla piscu. Jack is determine to stop the evil power or he'll die trying. Jack Special Summon the Effect Monster, Battle Fader with 0 ATK, in which it is Special Summoned when his opponent’s monster attack him directly and it ends the Battle Phase through this effect. He uses its effect to negate Aslla piscu's attack and end the Battle Phase. Furious, the possessed Carly sets 1 card face-down and ends her turn.

Jack tells Carly that he used to be a person who wouldn't give a thought about others and that he betrayed and hurt his friends. He also add that he was a man willing enough to sacrificed others for his own ambitions. But he learned from Carly that even a bruised and troubled heart can be saved by a truly considerate heart. Jack tells Carly that, right now, he’s wishing with all his heart and want to save the person he truly love, which is Carly. A red light surrounds him. The Signers senses it and their Mark of the Dragon disappear. The Crimson Dragon symbol appeared on Jack’s back. After noticing the symbol on his back, Jack sees a light in his Deck. He draws the lighted card that is revealed to be Majestic Dragon.

It’s Jack’s turn and he draws a card. Jack’s SPC go to 5 and Carly’s SPC go to 6. After drawing Majestic Dragon, he hears Carly’s voice who tells him to end the duel because she doesn’t want to hurt him or any more people because of her. Jack tells her not to be ridiculous and thinks there has to be a way to save her. Carly tells him that if he truly care for her, then he must end the duel. Jack says that if he does that, Carly will be gone. Carly tells him that this is the fate she’s choose for herself, that Jack truly considerate for her and that he must finish it with his own hand. Jack says he understands and tells her that, if this is what she sincerely desire, he will do it. Carly thanks Jack and it is then Jack realizes he must pay Carly back by saving her life as she saved his before.

Jack summons "Majestic Dragon" with 0 ATK and uses "Battle Fader", and "Red Dragon Archfiend" to Synchro Summon "Majestic Red Dragon" with 4000 ATK. Jack tells the possessed Carly that "Majestic Red Dragon's" effect allows him to negate an opponent's monster's effect and gain its ATK until the End Phase. "Majestic Red Dragon's" effect negates "Aslla piscu's" effect and gains ATK equal to "Aslla piscu's" until the End Phase. "Majestic Red Dragon's" ATK go to 6500. The possessed Carly is shocked by this turn of events. Jack says that he'll finish this, just as Carly wishes. But he won't let her die alone. Jack intends to activate his face-down card "Shock Wave", which destroys 1 monster on the field and both players take damage equal to the monster's ATK. If he uses this card to destroy his own "Majestic Red Dragon" and inflict damage equal its ATK, both him and Carly would take 6500 damage and the Duel would end in a Draw. Jack tells the possessed Carly this is the fate that he has chosen for himself and if he's defeated along with her, he'll have no regrets. The spirit of the true Carly appears and says she's going to choose his fortune once more.

Before Jack can activate his Trap Card, Carly activates Earthbound Release, in which this card release an Earthbound Immortal and destroys all monsters on the field and the destroyed monsters’ ATK are inflicted as damage to the opponent. Aslla picsu is the target for Earthbound Release's effect. Jack is shocked by this revelation and says that Majestic Red Dragon’s effect negate any card's effect trying to destroy it and inflicts the damage to the opponent equal to its ATK. While the dragon prepares to counter-attack, Carly says that her real wish is that Jack will be loved by everyone and that he becomes a real king that makes everyone happy. She shows him a card with Jack surrounded by children on it. Majestic Red Dragon's effect negate the effect that destroy it and inflicts damage to Carly’s Life Points equal to its ATK. Carly takes 6500 points of damage from Majestic Red Dragon. Carly loses all her Life Points. Jack wins the duel.

Aftermath
After Carly’s defeat, the geoglyph disappeared and each Mark of the Dragon reappeared on the respective Signers’ right arms. Akiza learns that Jack had won his duel, which causes Mina to jump for joy. Happy about Jack’s victory, Mina sighs in relief and calls Jack a true king.

Jack goes to see Carly, who is lying on the ground, and begs her to not to die on him. Carly wakes up and asks Jack where he is and Jack replies that he’s right here. Because she doesn’t have her glasses, she can’t see anything. Jack gives the glasses to her. Carly tells him that she loved to cheer on people like Jack who tried their hardest. But, when she tried to wish for such selfish happiness, she must have been wrong for doing so. Jack tells her that everyone has a right to wish for happiness and if what she’s saying that's a crime, then he’s guilty as well. Carly looks at Jack and tells him that she knows that he'll save the world and she’ll be cheering him on, after all. She gave him a hug, which Jack returns and slowly turns into dust. Before disappearing, Carly tells Jack that she loves him. After that, she disappeared. Carly's glasses fall to the ground and Jack tried to grab the now non-existent Carly. Sad, Jack looks at the light dusts falling from the sky.

At the Dark Signers lair, Yusei, Crow, Trudge, Leo, and Luna also see the light dusts falling from the sky. Luna concludes that Jack has won his duel against the Dark Signer and rejoices. Yusei says there’s still one tower left to seal and the Dark Signers’ ambitions will be stopped.
