Chapter 1: On Your Mark, Get Set, Duel!

"You gonna take 'er for a spin?" asked an anxious Rally. Rally had just found a chip, which was not an ordinary chip. This chip promised to give any bike the speed it needed. Seeing as how Yusei was the young boy's idol, of course he would be the one Rally would give it to. If anyone can beat Jack, Rally thought to himself, still looking at his idol, it's Yusei Fudo.

Yusei nodded, giving a faint smile toward the young boy. He decided, as he moved his right hand to the gas, he would give it a test before he really got on it. It revved up nice and hard. Yusei smirked. This would definitely come to good use. "Nice find, Rally," he said, complimenting the young boy on his hard work.

"And exactly where did you get this chip from?" asked a skeptical Blitz. Tank and Nervin looked skeptically at the young girl, too. Rally's story just didn't make sense to him. There was no way this valuable chip could just be laying out in the streets, especially the streets of Satellite. It had to be a trap. They watched as Yusei computed more things into his laptop.

"Now you can get Jack back!" Rally shouted, pumping his fist in the air. He felt important for making such a major contribution.

Nervin just shook his head. "Rally, shut it. Yusei, don't you think it's time you forget about Jack and what he did and move on?" he asked in a suggestive tone. Yusei tensed up inwardly. If anyone should know how he felt about Jack it was the four behind him.

Before Yusei could get a word in, Rally started up, fully heated. "No way! After Jack stole his runner and his most powerful card! I wouldn't give up for—."

Rally was cut off.

Suddenly, a bright light shined between the cracks of what they considered a roof.

"Verification Number AWX-86007, Rally Dawson, you're suspected of larceny! Surrender yourself immediately!" a loud, booming voice said from above them. The five occupants underground could hear the propeller above them.

It had to be the Public Order Bureau Security.

Tank, Blitz, and Nervin looked back at Rally. "Why you!" Tank exclaimed loudly.

Rally was quick to defend himself. "I didn't do nothin'…honestly!"

"Who cares?" yelled Blitz.

"If it wasn't yours you shouldn't have picked it up!" added Nervin.

Rally shook his head. His mind was adamant. "I only did it so Yusei could finally beat Jack!" countered back Rally.

Before the other three could retaliate back, Yusei spoke up. "That's enough," he said in his strong tone. Everyone automatically stood straight up. Yusei glanced at Rally's marked face before he focused on his laptop again. "We can't get out of here with that marker on 'im," he said. Rally touched the mark on his face. It was true. "It's sending a signal up the security."

Up above the five young men, an issue was underway.

"What the?" called one of the men from the helicopter. "Our signal is being crossed. I lost it, Commander Trudge!"

Trudge sneered with a slight growl.

Yusei stood up from his laptop and mounted his runner. "The signal is disrupted," he merely said, putting his helmet on that Rally had passed to him.

The jaws of Blitz, Tank, and Nervin dropped to the floor simultaneously. "You jammed it!" they asked together.

"You guys only have a few minutes before they clear everything," he said, not bothering to answer their question. "Get a move on. I'll draw security away." With that, he revved up his runner and drove out. The others did exactly what he had said to do and ran the opposite direction.

When Yusei had made it out from under ground, the security had spotted him. Immediately, they took off after him. Yusei looked behind him. This otta be fun, he thought to himself. Two runners, a transport bus, and a helicopter. You've definitely done it this time, Yusei, he thought with a smirk on his lips. By no time, they had caught up to him, which was all part of Yusei's plan. Abruptly, he stopped. The security runners and transport bus followed his stop, too. When the bus stopped, though, he heard a thud inside of it. His eyes widened. Someone was in there.

"Huh," the commander said as he slid his eye glass up. "Remember me, Yusei?" he asked in a mocking tone. "It's been a while. You should thank Jack for setting up this joyous reunion," he said sarcastically.

Before Yusei could reply another thud was heard against the interior of the transport bus. "Free me now, Trudge!" a feminine voice said from inside.

"That's Commander Trudge, to you, girlie!" Trudge called back.

The girl inside scoffed. "Like hell I would call you that!" she retorted back. "You barely passed the Academy! Only a moron would give a monkey like you your title!" she jeered back. This caused Yusei to give a little smile.

Growling, Trudge was enraged. "Bring her to me!" he ordered his second-in-command. Yusei looked over Trudge's shoulder to see whoever this was that was giving Trudge hell. The second-in-command lifted her up and threw her over his shoulder, her bag still on her back. He threw her down on the ground, surprising Yusei. Quickly, Trudge grabbed her by the wrist and hauled her up.

Yusei gave a small intake of air.

She was most definitely a girl. Her long hair went to her waist. It was straight and took on an onyx color. She had a petite form, but with a chest that could have been considered a c-cup. The hour glass figure she held only added more to her petite form. Her eyes were a deep burgundy color, which gave a beautiful contrast to her tan skin. All in all, she was enchanting, to say the least.

Her eyes met his.

"Is that the way you handle a young lady?" asked Yusei. His eyes never left hers. "No wonder you don't have a girl," he added in, finally able to pull his eyes from hers. She let out a small giggle at this before being hit on the side harshly by Trudge.

"If you must know," Trudge began, "this young lady was taken into custody today by some officers in New Domino City. I was heading to the base to hand her in, but when we heard that Rally took the bait, we immediately flew over here." He gripped harder onto the girl, but she didn't squeal. She was adamant. "This young girl is being arrested for the kidnapping of the Princess of Games, Mirage. We believe she had friends who helped with this tragic kidnapping. Once we get her to base we can take her picture, hopefully luring her accomplices out, too."

Yusei had to give a little gasp at this. Mirage was the one of the greatest duelist ever. Rumors were she had no home when she was younger after her parents died the same way as his. She was then taken by the government and raised on Duel Monsters. They could tell she was a child prodigy. By the age of ten, she had defeated all in a tournament. She even defeated Jack, making her the reigning Queen of Games, though, she liked to be called the Princess of Games. By now, she had to be about a year younger than him. The girl in front of him didn't look much older than seventeen herself, but who was he to judge?

"What's your name?" he asked the girl who was still under Trudge's strong grasp.

She looked up at him with her burgundy eyes. They, like her, seemed so adamant.

Trudge scoffed. "Like she'll tell you. She hasn't even told us—."

"Destiny," a voice cut him off. He looked down at her. "My name is Destiny," she said again, as though she was confirming it herself.

Yusei nodded. He looked back up at Trudge, whose eyes were still on the girl. "Let's make a deal, Trudge," he called. This caused Trudge to look up. "We duel."

"That's illegal!" the second-in-command put in. Trudge put up his free hand to shut him up.

"I'm listening," he said.

"We duel," Yusei repeated, "not just for my and my friends' freedom, but for Destiny's, as well." When he said this, Destiny gasped, looking up at him. He sure seemed confident for a Satellite kid. Inwardly, she shook her head. It doesn't matter where you come from, she thought as though she was reminding herself of something.

"Let's do it," Trudge, getting on his runner with Destiny sitting behind him, her bag still behind her back. No matter what they did, they just couldn't get it away from her.

Finally, the duel began. Destiny always loved a good duel. She watched as the young stranger, whose name she hasn't heard, to an early lead. Somehow, where Trudge the Sludge, as she called him, took the lead, he commented on how the stranger's cards were all junk cards. She wanted to answer back with a rude remark, but was into the game too much. In the end, Yusei became victorious, though he was left with a hundred life points.

That's when she felt it.

Trudge's runner began to lose control. Instinctively, she grasped on to Trudge's waist. It was the only thing that kept her on the runner. From the side of her eye, she could see the stranger trying to grab her hand, but everything was going too fast. The runner was not stopping.

It was then Destiny knew what she had to do.

Gracefully, she lifted her left leg and put it on Trudge's left side. She did the same with her right. After wrapping it around his waist she lifted him off and, in a flash, threw him from the bike. Trudge rolled on the ground before he hit the wall. Destiny quickly moved up and grabbed the accelerator, gaining control of the runner. It was too late, though. A wall was coming up from the side and she knew she would have to hit it. Closing her eyes, she waited for the harsh impact.

It never came.

Instead, she felt herself being lifted from the bike and onto the comforting seat of another. Instinctively, she grabbed the waist in front of her, eyes still closed.

After leaving Trudge with a wise saying, they were off.

When she opened her eyes she met the blue eyes of her savior.

"Yusei," he merely said with a slight smile. "Yusei Fudo," and that was the last thing she heard or saw before darkness consumed her.


All she could see was black. Mind you, black was not a horrid color, but that was all she could see. She did, though, hear whispers.

"She's quite a sight," a female voice said. Destiny tried to see the source of this voice, but she could just not find it. She could not find it in herself to wake up.

A male voice was heard next. "She is," he confirmed. By the way the female and male's voice sound, she guessed they were talking nicely about her. Since she couldn't open her eyes she went to her fingers. She felt them move due to her will.

"She may be awakening," she heard the female voice again. Destiny's head was next to move. She shook it to the left and right, feeling abrupt pain. I'm definitely not in heaven, she said upon making this new discovery.

Suddenly, her eyes opened.

After a few seconds of trying to focus, she saw a couple of heads before. The ones that stuck out the most were a female and the stranger who'd help her. What'd he say his name was, again?

"Y-Yusei," she said in a whisper. "Yusei Fudo," she tried again in a weak voice. The elderly woman smiled. She sat up, only to bet me with too much pain. Seeing this, the elderly woman frowned and urged Yusei to help her. Yusei didn't need urging, though, for his arms shot out and grabbed her by her torso. He relaxed her on the bed, his arms never leaving her torso.

"M-my bag," she rasped out. Yusei looked at Martha, who got her bag and gave it to him.

"It's right here," he said in a calm voice. She tried lifting her arm to reach it, but felt the pain. She laid it back down. "Don't strain yourself. No one's going to bother it." She looked in his eyes and, after not sensing any dishonesty, trusted him and let her head relax on the pillow behind her.

The elderly woman spoke up next. "I'm Martha," she said gently. Mirage couldn't help but smile at her. She had a nice aura around her. Martha smiled back. "These are my children," she said, directing Destiny's tired eyes to the children who were around the bed. "Well," Martha corrected herself. "Some of them. This is Crow, Rally, Blitz, Nervin, and Tank. The others are playing outside." Destiny merely looked at them. "And this," Martha said, putting her hand on Yusei's back. She gave a gentle smile toward him and Yusei returned one back. "This is Yusei, as you know."

Destiny nodded. She watched as Crow, Rally, Blitz, Nervin, and Tank let the room.

"I was going to bathe you earlier, but you seemed tired," Martha explained. That made Destiny's eyes widen.

"N-no," the girl spoke. "It's fine. I'll do it. Just let me get some…sleep," she said as her eyes closed. They waited a few seconds, only to find out that she was sleeping by her even breathing.

"Yusei," Martha called as he unraveled his arms from the girl. "Are you sure you overheard right? There's no way she could be responsible for the kidnapping of Mirage."

Yusei looked down at her gravely. "That's what Trudge said," he said, his eyes still on her face. "Martha, I'm leaving in two mornings for New Domino City."

Martha sighed. "If you must, Yusei. If you must."

So, I wanted to try something new. I was watching Yugioh 5D's and I had an itching to create something. So I did. I was going to do Akira, but I just thought of making this character up. SO what do you guys think? Should I continue, or just totally give this up? There will be some dueling in this story. It will also follow the episodes profusedly. It's basically my version of Yugioh 5D's. The same characters will be in it and Destiny will be one of the only OC's because I'm a big fan of too much OC's.

Well, that's it for now!

Tell me what you guys think.

Lot's of love,

Lady Anata
