HELLO Everybody! To all my fans out there, I decided to have 3-5 short stories as Sequels to Searching for Eden. They will be shorter chapters with Short Duels with only about 10 chapters each. I do this to focus on the characters I haven't really focused on in Duelist of the Roses or Searching for Eden, and on top of that I can add more exciting stories to the lore of my Epic tale. After these Short Stories are done There will be a Final Story and I will finish off the Rose Guardian Saga.

This Story will Focus On Ali Clairoux. I apologize to any french Speaking people for the rough translation at the start of the story.

The Following story is work of Fiction. Any relation to any real People, Places, or refernces are purely coicidental. The Characters and copy right cards of Yugioh 5D's do not belong to us.

*Paris, France, Highway, 5:24 A.M. LST*

Ali Clairoux rode her White Duel Runner, alone, along the highway. The sun hasn't risen yet but the sky was lighting up, taking the darkness away. She was listening to Satellite radio to try and keep her mind off...stuff...

"Il ya quelques années, Yugi Moto un le duelliste royaume du tournoi et a été proclamé le premier roi des jeux jamais! Depuis lors, tous les magazines 10 années monstre Duel a choisir un duelliste, qui a défini la génération, et proclamé eux, le roi Suivant des Jeux." The guy on the Radio spoke. "Mais cela pourrait être la première reine des Jeux jamais? Ali Clairoux, depuis qu'elle avait 16 ans, a remporté le Notre-Dame tasse à Paris, Le tournoi Kaiser à Berlin, le roi Georges tasse à Londres, la Royal Cup à Madrid, et Auguste tournoi de Rome, qui sont les 5 plus grands tournois de duel en Europe. Sans oublier, elle a remporté un duel académie de championnat à Mont-Saint-Micheal et a remporté le premier tournoi officiel mondiale. Je demande donc, peut-elle être nommer la première reine des jeux?"

(((Translation: Years ago,Yugi Moto won the Duelist Kingdom tournament and was proclaimed the first ever King of Games! Since then, every 10 years Duel monster magazine has picked a duelist, who defined the generation, and proclaimed them the Next King of Games. But could this be the first ever Queen of Games? Ali Clairoux, since she was 16, has won the Notre Dame cup in Paris, The Kaiser tournament in Berlin, King Georges cup in London, The Royal cup in Madrid, and Augustus tournament in Rome which are the 5 biggest duel tournaments in Europe. Not to Mention, she won a Duel Academy championship at Mont St. Micheal AND won the first official World Tournament. So I ask, will she be named the first Queen of games?)))

"Est-ce tout?" Ali chuckled. (Translation: Is that all?)

"Va probablement être un Américain stupide encore. Je veux dire qu'ils peuvent TOUT quand il s'agit de prix." A Second guy on the radio spoke. (Translation: Probably going to be a stupid American again. I mean they get EVERYTHING when it comes to awards.)

"Qui ne l'Amérique ont? Seulement 3 viennent à l'esprit; Colin Kennat, Krystal Skyler, et Zero Westley et aucun d'entre eux a fait un impact aussi grand que Clairoux." The first voice spoke up. (Translate: Who does America have? Only 3 come to mind; Colin Kennat, Krystal Skyler, and Zero Westley and none of them has made as big an impact as Clairoux has.)

"Mais vous savez juste que l'Amérique est en quelque sorte aller à l'emporter!" The second guy said annoyed. "Américains à Dieu ne plaise pas obtenir ce qu'ils veulent." (Translate: But you just KNOW that America is Somehow going to take it away! God forbid Americans don't get what they want.)

From that point on the talk show it became more Political and Ali got sick of it and changed the Radio to Satellite and listened to an overseas station.

"Crews arrived in Atlantis city to find the City completely deserted." A News report on the radio stated. "12 million people seemingly disappeared over night. This in the wake of the reported Monster attacks all over the world-"

Ali changed the station again to a music station.

*12 million people...* Ali thought to herself. *We couldn't save a single one...I still can't believe it...*

Ali thought about what happened in Atlantis City. The Umbra's Violent attack a few months ago still was having ramifications around the world. None worse then in Atlantis City. Ferrum Draco Fidelitas Julius, the monstrous Battle Ship Soul Card, took the life force of all those people to power itself. Seeing what happened in that machine's underbelly still haunts Ali.

"Speed World 2 engaged. Overriding Duel Runner." The Computer in Ali's duel runner spoke up and activated, prepared to duel. She looked over and saw a Duel Runner come up from behind her. The Duelist was wearing a White Turbo Duel Uniform and a helmet Covering the guy's face.

"I've been looking for you, Ali Clairoux." The guy said in a fake robotic voice.

"So, you wanna duel?" Ali chuckled. "Fine, I got time to kill."

"I shall go first!" the person drew their first card. "First, I summon Sacred Knight's Shield Bearer (Lv.4 800/1300) in defense mode and then I'll set two cards face-down and end my turn!"

"My turn now!" Ali said as she drew her first card and gained a Speed Counter. "I summon Forbidden Lancer (Lv.4 1700/800) in attack mode! Then I'll have Lancer attack your monster!"

? (LP 4000) (SC 1) Ali (LP 4000) (SC 1)

Forbidden Lancer stabbed Sacred Knight's Shield Bearer and destroyed him.

"Thanks to Lancer's ability, I can deal you piercing damage and when he destroys a monster in defense mode, I can draw a card!" Ali said as she drew a card from her Deck and dealt the mysterious person with 400 points of damage.

? (LP 3600) (SC 1) Ali (LP 4000) (SC 1)

"I'll end my turn by setting one card face-down!"

"My turn!" The enigmatic duelist drew their next card and gained a Speed Counter. "I activate the Speed Spell-Overboost to gain 6 Speed Counters. However, during my End Phase, they drop to 1. Now that I have 4 or more Speed Counters, I can activate the Speed Spell-Speed Fusion. This allows me to fuse monsters in my hand or on my field to Fusion Summon! I fuse Sacred Knight's Spearholder and Horse of the Floral Knights to create Centaur Mina (Lv.6 2200/1600)! Now, Centaur Mina will attack your Forbidden Lancer!"

"I activate the Trap Prideful Roar!" Ali retaliated.

"I don't think so! During each of my turns, Centaur Mina can negate a Trap's activation and return it to its original position!"

Centaur Mina trampled over Ali's Trap and returned it to its face-down position. Then it sliced Lancer in half and destroyed him, inflicting Ali with 500 points of damage.

? (LP 3600) (SC 8) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 2)

"I end my turn! Now my Speed Counters drop." The strange person concluded their turn.

? (LP 3600) (SC 1) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 2)

"Damn!" Ali cursed as she drew her next card and gained a Speed Counter. "I'll set one card face-down and summon Forbidden Android (Lv.4 1450/1500) in defense mode! That ends my turn!"

? (LP 3600) (SC 2) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 3)

"That move was a bit disappointing coming from you." The person said as they drew their next card and gained a Speed Counter. "I summon Fleur Synchron (Lv.2 400/200)! Now I tune Fleur Synchron with Centaur Mina to Synchro Summon Chevalier de Fleur (Lv.8 2700/2300)! Chevalier de Fleur, attack her monster!"

? (LP 3600) (SC 3) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 4)

Chevalier de Fleur slashed Ali's Android and destroyed it.

"Since you destroyed Forbidden Android, I can draw a card!" Ali drew a card from her Deck. "And I just happened to draw Adolescent Sprout (Lv.5 1600/1100), which I can Special Summon when I draw him from a card effect!"

A medium-sized plant appeared on the field.

"I end my turn!"

Ali then drew her next card and gained a Speed Counter.

? (LP 3600) (SC 4) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 5)

"I now summon the Tuner Mystical Synchron (Lv.3 1200/800) and then I'll tune her with Adolescent Sprout to Synchro Summon Cirrus Sky Dragon (Lv.8 2900/2800)! Next, I activate the face-down Trap Cirrus Storm! If I have Cirrus Sky Dragon out, I can increase its attack by 100 for each card in my hand and when it destroys a monster, it can attack again! I have 4 cards in my hand, so I can increase by dragon's power to 3300! Attack Chevalier de Fleur!

"I activate-!"

"You're not activating anything, because thanks to Cirrus Storm, other Traps can't be activated this turn!"

Cirrus Sky Dragon shot an icy fog from its mouth that froze Chevalier de Fleur, then the ice shattered and the figure lost 600 Life Points.

? (LP 3000) (SC 4) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 5)

"Now, Cirrus Sky Dragon, finish off the rest of her Life Points!"

Cirrus Sky Dragon breathed the icy fog at the mysterious person and reduced their Life Points to 0.

?(LP.0) (SC 4) Ali (LP 3500) (SC 5).

Ali and the mysterious Duelist both slowed down and stopped on the empty highway.

"Better luck next time buddy." Ali told him.

"I assure you, Miss Clairoux." The duelist said as he removed his helmet to reveal a stunningly beautiful girl with long Blond hair. "If I had tried to win the duel, It would've been much more intense."

Ali wasn't exactly surprised once the girl removed her helmet. "What do you want?" she asked, knowing this was no accidental meeting.

"My name is Sherry Leblanc." The girl introduced her self. "I came to ask you for help. I believe you received an Invitation to Andorra Fair?"

The Andorra Fair is a Gathering of European Duelists in the Principality of Andorra, located between France and Spain, held by the country's Most Influential Citizen, Duke Lamont Méchant. Ali had received an Invitation just the other day.

"What about it?" Ali asked.

"There is a group called Yliaster," Sherry continued. "They are working behind the scenes of the Fair. For what purpose, I know not."

"I heard of them." Ali mentioned. "What makes you so sure they're running the fair?"

"My friend was investigating the Méchant Manor and found proof. However, he got captured and is being held there." Sherry explained. "I'd like your help to save him."

"Ya know, the Yliaster helped a friend of mine." Ali pointed out. "And they have a grudge against my enemies. Maybe you and I are on different sides? So what makes you thinks I would help you."

"Before he was captured," Sherry continued. "My friend also had Information about the involvement of Jon Clairoux."

Ali's eyes opened wide. "My-my father...?" she asked to stunned to say anything else.

"I knew that would make you interested." Sherry smiled. "If you want to know what happened to him. Help me find my Friend and we'll help you uncover any truth about your father."

Ali was too stunned to speak and Sherry placed her helmet on and started up her duel Runner. "I hope you will be there." Sherry said. "You would be a huge help." She rode off.

Ali stayed there for a while thinking. *Dad...* she thought. *What were you involved with?*
