The team enters the dome of the Arc Cradle, a mysterious object that is descending on New Domino City. If they don't stop it, the city will be crushed. They face Zone, a man from the future. He is old, so old that he has a metal body that sustains his life. He is determined to destroy New Domino City, in order to change the future of mankind. From his time period, synchro monsters are out of control and are destroying everything. Aporia, formerly an enemy to Team 5Ds, is defeated. But, before the final battle can begin, Leo gets worked up, angry at Zone for destroying Aporia.

"I'll battle you myself!" Leo shouts.

"Leo, no! Let me handle it," Yusei yells at him.

Leo ignores Yusei, still facing Zone. "Well, you gonna fight me or what?"

"Leo!"

"No. Don't you see? This whole thing is pointless. If you help me, Leo, I will give you the ability to go back in time to change anything you want," Zone said.

Leo is stunned. "Anything?"

"Anything." replied Zone.

"Leo, don't!" Yusei yelled.

"Yusei, I have to. Trust me," Leo replied, still facing Zone.

"Leo, what are you doing?" Yusei asks.

Leo ignores Yusei again. "Fine, I'll help you. On one condition. I get to go to the past first."

"Leo!" Luna screams. She tries to run towards her brother, but Yusei stops her.

"Don't you dare," Yusei tells her sternly.

Leo turns towards Yusei. "Yusei, you've got to trust me on this. It really is pointless to fight him like this."

A figure forms next to Yusei. He is transparent like a ghost. Yusei instantly recognizes him.

"Dad?!"

"No signer must join forces with Zone, or all will be lost," he tells Leo.

"I have to do this." He turns towards Zone. "Well? Do you accept my help or not?"

"I accept your condition," Zone replies.

"Then send me already," Leo demands.

"Leo!" Yusei shouts.

Leo vanishes, only to return a moment later. As soon as he does, there is a shock wave, blasting against the signers. Their marks protect them and they remain standing. The wave vanishes and Dr. Fudo solidifies and drops an inch to the ground.

" See Yusei? I told you to trust me," Leo says with a smirk.

"What is this?!" says a furious Zone.

"You've been tricked, thats what!" Leo shouts back.

"Leo, not now! Now duck!" Dr. Fudo shouts.

He whips out a gun and aims at Zone. Leo drops to the ground.

"You really think that will work?" Zone questions.

Dr. Fudo replies, angry. "Yes. This is a special gun. I know what your metal body is made of. There is no way I'm letting you hurt this city!"

"You sound like your son. Full of pointless hope." Zone replies.

"You know the saying. Like father like son. Now, I'm going to end this terror that you have created."

"No, the synchro's are the terror! I have only come to fix it!" Zone yells.

"You're wrong Zone. And if I have to take you out to do so, then so be it."

"Then get out your deck."

Dr. Fudo shakes his head. "I already told you what I'm going to do. You have been alive for far too long, Zone."

With that, Dr. Fudo aims his gun and shoots. Zone drops and his metal body goes still.

Dr. Fudo puts away the gun. "I'm sorry it had to be this way." He turns towards the others. "We need to get out of here, now!"

Yusei recovers from his shock. "Right. But how? There is no way off of this thing."

"Yes there is."

He runs over to their runners and points to Crows. He points at the wings. Yusei sees this and realization dawns on his face.

"Of course!" he says. "We need to get wings on the others ASAP."

Dr. Fudo nods. "Crow, Yusei, you two help me attach wings to the other runners. Everyone else, grab every bit of scrap metal you can, preferably big and flat."

Luna, Leo, Akiza, and Jack run to get the scrap from the piles of junk around the room. Crow, Yusei, and Dr. Fudo start reinforcing Crows wings. As they get more metal from the others, they move on to the three runners without wings. Within minutes, the makeshift wings are attached. Dr. Fudo starts giving out instructions.

"Leo, you ride with Crow. Luna, you ride with Jack."

"Who are you riding with?" Yusei asks.

"No one. Akiza is going to ride with you."

"What?" Akiza asks, shocked at the statement.

Dr. Fudo turns to her. "You're runner is the most unstable and least capable of extra weight. It will already be hard enough. Yusei's is better able to accommodate extra passengers."

"I guess that makes sense." Akiza replies.

A huge tremor shakes the ground. Everyone stumbles, but no one falls.

"We have to go now! Yusei, lead the way out of here. We need to get to the arms of the Arc Cradle in order to gain enough speed to get away," he shouts.

Everyone runs to their assigned runners. Yusei zips out of the room, followed by his dad, Crow, and Jack. Soon they are outside, at the edges of the arms. Yusei revs his engine and bolts forward, his friends and father following suit. The arms narrows and soon the end is in front of them. Yusei gets a final boost in speed and drives off. The wings attached to his runner hold, but shudder. Behind him, the others have done the same. Luna and Leo are terrified, holding onto their friends as tight as they can.

Dr. Fudo points to their left. "There's land."

"How come we are over water now? We were over the land before." Luna asks.

"Those arms are long. The one we took ended quite a ways over the water," Dr. Fudo answered.

"We're almost there!" Yusei yells.

"We won't make it!" exclaims Crow.

Crow was right. They were descending rapidly. They would hit the water several yards away from the shore, where it was deep. Dr. Fudo gets an idea.

"In that case, our only chance is to bail!" he yells.

"What?! That's suicide!" Jack shouts, not believing his ears.

"If we bail, the runners won't be carrying our weight and will be able to glide farther," explains Yusei.

Luna looks terrified. "I can't swim!"

Jack reassures her. "Don't worry, I'll help you."

Dr. Fudo nods. "Ready? Now!"

They all jump.
