The alternate Astral and Dark Mist are Double and Trouble. (so when you see just Yuma, that's the real Yuma taking)

Yuma: "Will Astral ever wake up?" (said with slight concern)

Corrupt: "He'll wake up eventually, I couldn't get that lucky."

Double: "Corrupt, what's going on?" (said half asleep)

Corrupt: "Looks like Astral's awake."

Astral: "Does this mean that the full off-balance is over?"

Corrupt: "No, but Astral will occasionally wake up just to know what's going on around him."

Double: "Corrupt what's going on, and please don't tell me you went after Dark Mist again? (said half asleep)

Corrupt: "Don't worry Astral Black Mist is doing just-"

Trouble: "Stop calling me Black Mist!"

Corrupt: "No! *Smirks* And as I was saying, he's doing just fine. You haven't been asleep that long actually. Just out of curiosity, did you know that I took control again?"

Double: "Of course I did, why wouldn't I?"

Yuma: "What did Astral say, dose he know that you took control again?"

Corrupt: "Yes he knows. How did you know that I took control again?"

Double: "When I'm in my comatose like state, as you would call it, my mind and body are one. I'll know everything that's going on within my body, and that means I'll know everything you're doing as well, Corrupt."

Corrupt: "That doesn't seem fair Astral."

Double: "You could do it to, if you tried heard enough."

Corrupt: "Can Dark Mist do this as well?"

Double: "Of course he can Corrupt, Dark Mist can unite his mind and body if he really wanted too."

Trouble: "Why are you and Astral talking about me?"

Corrupt: "I was just asking Astral if you could do something to."

Trouble: "Which would be?"

Corrupt: "I was asking Astral if you could unit your mind and body as one."

Trouble: "Of course I can Corrupt. Why would you ask such a stupid question like that? Unless, you're not planning on going after me again when we get back home, are you Corrupt?" (looks at Corrupt suspiciously)

Corrupt: "Maybe, maybe not. I am thinking about it, I won't lie on that. You will be free game when we get back home. I won't ever miss a chance to make your life a living hell Dark Mist, you should know me by now. (smiles deviously) *zap* Owww! What was that for Astral?"

Double: "That was for thinking about going after Dark Mist again when we get home, and for zapping me earlier when we were being attacked by Dark Mist's real side Corrupt." (said smiling)

Trouble: "Don't worry Astral, I'll make sure GG (Ginyugoku) seals him away again?"

Double: "Tell Dark Mist that I like his idea."

Corrupt: "He likes your idea Dark Mist, much to my dismay."

Double: "Also, would you mind telling the others that I'm going back to sleep?"

Corrupt: "Now that is something I don't mind doing for you Astral. Astral is going back to sleep for awhile and don't worry Dark Mist, Astral saids he loves you."

Double: "I never said that, but I don't mind you saying it for me."

(Astral goes back to sleep)

Corrupt: "Astral's asleep once again. Which reminds me, I should be where he is right now."

Astral: "Why is that Corrupt?"

Corrupt: "The mental stasis not only affects Astral, but me as well."

Astral: "And that's because?"

Corrupt: "That's because we share the same mind and body. If you need me I'll be up in Yuma's room going back to sleep."

Trouble: "Who should I look out for when this passes?"

Corrupt: "Astral most likely, but it could always be me. So I would say both of us."

Astral: "The next time Yuma's out with his friends don't bother me and Number 96."

Corrupt: *Smirks* "I'll make no such promises Astral, besides, I want to make Black Mist's life a living hell."

Trouble: "You're just calling me by my Japanese name to irritate me, aren't you Corrupt?"

Corrupt: "Yes, yes I am my dear Number."

Yuma: "Shouldn't you be in my room right now sleeping?"

Corrupt: "Yes, your right Yuma. I should get back to sleep before the mental stasis forces me too."

Corrupt goes back to sleep in Yuma's room.

Trouble: "So what do you want to do Yuma?"

Yuma: "I don't know, I guess I'll hang out with my friends."

Astral: "So what do you want me and Number 96 to do Yuma?"

Yuma: "You guys can always come with me if you want."

Trouble: "You can go Astral. I'll stay here and keep an eye on Corrupt, just in case he wakes up."

Astral: "Alright Number 96."

Trouble: "Have fun you two."

Dark Mist goes up to Yuma's room with a book, and watches Corrupt as he sleeps.

*2 Hours Later*

Astral: "Next time Yuma pay attention to Bronk's set face down card."

Yuma: "I didn't think he was gonna activate the trap card Astral!"

*In Yuma's Room*

Trouble: "Looks like Yuma and Astral are back." (said whispering)

Yuma opens the door.

Yuma: "Hey Dark Mist."

Trouble: "Hello Yuma, did you have a good time with your friends?"

Astral: "He lost to Bronk, again."

Dark Mist just smiles.

Yuma: "As I said Astral, I did think he was gonna activate the trap card!" (said quietly)

Trouble: "I know you'll get better Yuma, all you need is practice."

Yuma: "You think so Dark Mist?"

Trouble: "I don't think so, I know so Yuma."

Yuma: "What do you think Astral?"

Astral: "I agree with Number 96. A little bit more practice couldn't hurt. And I believe in you to Yuma. I know you'll became a great duelist someday."

Yuma: "Thanks guys."

Trouble and Astral: "You're welcome Yuma." (said with a soft smile)

Double: "What did I miss?" (said very tired)

Trouble: " Not much."

Double: "Even though the full off-balance is over, I sill feel exhausted." (said very tried)

Yuma: "It's ok Astral, you can sleep as long as you want."

Astral falls asleep again. Yuma looks over to Astral and laughs, because Astral fell asleep again.

*Within Astral's Mind*

Corrupt: "Should I take control until you fully recover Astral?"

Astral: "Yeah, that's fine with me Corrupt." (said sleepy)

Corrupt takes control of Astral's body. (Yuma, Astral and Dark Mist aren't paying attention)

Corrupt: "Did you miss me Black Mist? (said with a devious smile)

That's chapter 17 please review. Here's a think about question, did Dark Mist really miss Corrupt? Chapter 18 is called "Phone Call From Home" everyone can guess what's going to happen in chapter 18. Now here are the alternates!

Alternate Astral: "Hi there reads, I hope you guys are ejoying the story! Do you guys have any ideas on what I should wear to my wedding?"

Alternate Dark Mist: "Astral you need to wear anything that's blue."

Alternate Astral: "Why?"

Alternate Dark Mist: "Because it maches you skin color. That, and it makes you look beautiful and really really HOT."

Alternate Astral: "You think so?"

Alternate Dark Mist: "Yes I do, you look HOT in blue Astral. Blue is you signature color. Not sure about me though."

Alternate Astral: "I think red is your signature color Dark Mist."

King Shingetsu: "You know you guys can always ask me, right?! And give it a rest on the signature color thing! *headache* Give your opinion on what you think Astral and Dark Mist should wear to there wedding, please. It would help them out a lot, and it will also make them shut-up about it!"

Ryu-Ran 2200: "See you all in Chapter 18: Phone Call From Home! Bye!"
