Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's A Little Helper

by AnimeFanatic623

This takes place 6 months after the end of 5d's. I know it says Yusei and Aki but I won't get into it right away. This is also my first fanfic, ever!

1. Chapter 1

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5d's: A Little Helper

Chapter 1: The New Arrival

I've got to thank YugiohFreak54 for inspiring me to write this! If you haven't read his stories, do so right now!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. If I did, everyone would've stayed and Yusei and Akiza would've gotten together.

Claimer: I own the plot and the OC Derek.

It was six months after his friends had left and Yusei was living quite peacefully. Yet there was one thing that bothered him. He couldn't shake this feeling of regret and emptiness. Ever since his friend had gone their separate ways, Yusei had been focused on his work with Ener-D. All was going well, no bad guys, work was going good; only thing missing was his friends; namely Akiza. He hadn't gotten to tell her how he felt about her. He had always liked her. But the one chance he got to tell her, he decided not to. He felt it hadn't been the right time to tell her.

I can't believe it's been six months already. Everyone's gone their separate ways. I'm happy for them, but I still miss them; especially Akiza. I wish I had told her about my feelings before she left.

"Mr. Fudo?" asked his assistant.

"Uh, yes?"replied Yusei, pushing his thoughts aside for now.

"Your new intern is here."

"Great. Send him in please."

"Of course, right this way sir."

"Hello, my name's Derek! It's an honor to meet the legendary Yusei Fudo!"

"It's nice to meet you too, Derek. Let's get started, shallwe?" "Alright then, what do you want me to do first?" Derek asked.

"Duel me."

"Huh? Did you challenge me to a duel!?" asked an excited, yet nervous Derek.

"Yes,I did. If you can show me that you're capable of holding your own or even beating me in a duel, then you can be my intern. Think you're up to it?"

"I sure am, Yusei! Let's do this!"

"Alright then, follow me and we can get this started."

…

"Alright let's duel!" Said Derek, a little nervous, but not making it noticeable.

"Right," said Yusei, prepping his Duel Runner. He glanced over and say that Derek was doing the same.

"Speed World 2, activate!" they both said.

"Let's Duel!" they both shouted as their Duel Runners.

As they took off, Yusei noticed Derek was lagging. Derek was going slowly, but not on accident. He didn't like going first. Yusei rounded the corner first, so he went first.

"Wait, then that means…"

"…That you can't defend against this. Plus he has piercing damage!"

"Ahhhhhhh!" yelled Yusei, as his LP dropped.

"Hehe, that took half your- why is your LP at 3000 instead of 2000!?"

"Simple, I activated my Damage Slicer's effect from my hand."

(Damage Slicer LVL/2 Attribute/Dark Type/Fiend ATK/0 DEF/0

(Trap Crusher LVL/4 Attribute/Earth Type/Warrior ATK/1600 DEF/1800

"Now I have all I need to win! Trap Crusher attacks!"

"Ughhh" yelled Yusei (Yusei 3000 1400LP)

"Spell Crusher, end this!"

"Nice try, but I activate two Damage Slicers from my hand! Now the damage is reduced to ¼." (Yusei 1400 1000LP)

"Wasn't expecting this, but Monster Crusher still attacks! (Yusei 1000 400) I end my turn with a facedown."

"And since I can now use Spells and Traps again, I use Damage Reciprocator!"

(Damage Reciprocator/Trap/Normal

(Stray Blast/Trap/Counter

Activate only when you would receive effect damage; inflict half of what you would receive to your opponent.)

"Well I'll be its going to be a draw, huh?"

"I believe so, unless you have anything to retaliate with?"

"Nope, I've got nothing left, you?"

"Same here; oh well, it was fun."

"It sure was, Yusei, it sure was." (Derek 400 0LP, Yusei 400 0)

"So did I get the job?"

"Of course you did! Anyone who can duel like that is qualified for an intern. A little too qualified actually. That is why I'm making you Manager of the Dueling Department."

"What do I do?"

"Simple, you hone your skills on a Duel Runner while we record Ener-D readings and see how much it can handle. Sound good?"

"Of course it does! Dueling for a job? Who wouldn't want a job like that? Thank you so much, Mr. Fudo!"

"Please, call me Yusei."
