Greetings to all of you who are reading this, my name is Rocket Knight 777, but you can call me RK777. This is my first story here on FanFiction, but hopefully not my last. Originally, I wanted to start my time here with a GX story that took place the year following Jaden's graduation; however I had asked a fellow writer to use one of the characters in his story to introduce his cards in a setting that I think most people might relate to more. That does not mean that that story won't be posted, merely that it is delayed until further notice. I also plan to post a Power Ranger fanfic, and bios for a Twisted Metal story I'm creating.

In the mean time, we have this and a few things to go over before we begin.

First, this story is an approved spin-off of Cyber Commander's original Shadowchasers fanfic. It is set about two months after the end of that story in the city if Toledo, Ohio, USA; and its surrounding area.

Second, to state right now, I do not own the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG or the show Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds. I do not own Shadowchasers. I only own the characters and cards, unless stated before the start of the chapter, that I have created for the fic.

Third, since this takes place during the 5Ds timeline, one would assume that there will be Turbo Dueling. Well, you'd be right. As such, at least until further notice, Speed World will be used for a Turbo Duel. For those of you who don't know what Speed World is, here it is:

Speed World

Field Spell

When you activate a Spell Card, other than a "Speed Spell", you take 2000 damage. During each player's Standby Phase, place 1 Speed Counter on this card (max 12). When you take damage, remove Speed Counters from this card for each multiple of 1000 damage taken.

Fourth, it is entirely possible that my story will coincide with the current chapters being posted in Cyber Commanders sequel. As such, should it occur, anything from CC's story that would affect mine will be included in the necessary chapters.

Now that that is taken care of, we can begin.

If you watch the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX series, you probably remember the episode where Jaden first found out about the Abandoned Dorm. How it had Jaden, Syrus, and Chumley telling ghost stories of various scare levels based on the level of the card they drew from a deck. That same principle will be carried out here. The narrators of this story will present to the order of the story's chapters through a card draw. I have here the card that will take you to them and they will tell you about what is about to occur. So as Orson Welles said on his final television, which was on the 1980's TV show Moonlighting, "gather the kids, the dog, grandma; and lock them in another room" for this tale begins now.

Prologue

Gateway to Dark World

Three light flash on aiming downward. Their paths come down upon three shadows. One is a boy, possibly in his teenage years, standing about 5'10", another is a man standing professionally at about 6'1", and the last one is female standing at about 5'6 wearing a dress of some kind.

"The story you are about to hear might be hard to believe, but we swear to you it is true," the boy's shadow says. "We know it are because we experienced it or know the ones who experienced parts of it well enough to believe them."

"Had we not been through what we had been through," The older man's shadow says, "we would have been in the same boat that you are in. Well, maybe at least one of us."

"None the less, what happened happened, and you can't change the past," the girl's shadow tells you, showing that she has a bit of an accent in her voice, Transylvanian probably. "So I think we should drop this and get on with the intro."

"Agreed," the man's voice replies. "The location is Toledo, Ohio in the United States. The time….uh, a couple of months after that world-wide rainstorm we had."

"Um," the boy's voice speaks up, "I think they know the story of the recent Deluge."

"Well, most of them anyway," the girl's voice chimes in.

"Oh, yes, quite right," the man's voice says. "Well, then, that makes this a bit easier. Well, as you know, there are Shadowchasers stationed in various cities in various parts of the world. This tale that shall be told is about one such group stationed in what is nicknamed the Glass City."

"But we aren't going to tell you the whole story," the girl's voice says. "We're just here to lead you into each chapter. We're gonna let members of the Shadowchasers take you into their own stories."

"This is because each person's story is connected to another to create the full picture," the boy's voice adds. "So, without further a due, let's get this party started."

"And we shall," the man's voice says as you hear him draw a card, "with this. It's a tale from a member you let's the past dictate his future. It's a story called…."
