Five years later.
It was a beautiful day when Jack woke up. The sun was shinning, birds were singing, and there was not a cloud in the sky. Seeing this, Jack wasted no time in barging into his sisters room to wake her up. He flung the door wide open and catapulted himself onto her bed.
It would have been an understatement to say that she was not happy about her rude awakening.
She screamed as Jack ripped the duvet off of her. "Jack! What are you doing?! Go away!" Sulking, she pulled the duvet back over herself and turned her back on him to face the wall.
"C'mon, let's go outside. It's a really nice day." Jack persisted. When he was met with a stone cold silence, an idea sprung into his mind. "I can give you another duelling lesson if you come outside." He said with a smirk, knowing her weakness.
Ever since Electra was able to read, Jack had been teaching her how to play duel monsters. She had an incredibly simple deck, but that didn't matter to Jack as he was still teaching her the basics, like using effect monsters and spell and trap cards.
That statement got her attention and she launched herself at a very surprised Jack, resulting in them both being tangled up in the bed sheets on the floor.
They both laughed at Electra's reaction as she replied excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes, I'll do it. Now get out coz I wanna get dressed. She was five so she was easily able to dress herself in her usual outfit which was plain black leggings and a purple tank top. Sometimes she would wear a black jumper with a Blue-Eyes White Dragon on the front. She loved dragons and everything about them.
After Jack was practically thrown out of her room, he decided he would wait outside for her.
Once she was ready she ran downstairs to grab her deck. Even though she was running, she ran as quietly as she could so she didn't disturb her parents as they were trying to have a lie in.
She ran into the kitchen / dinning room to grab her deck she had let on the table the night before.
She was just grabbing her deck when she saw her mothers old duel disk on the side. She had never used a duel disk before as her mom and dad said she wasn't old enough. Even Jack didn't have one and he was eight.
Her parents had the same rule as Martha did with her kids, which was they couldn't have a duel disk until they were ten years old. This is because they regularly went over to play with the kids there and their parents didn't want them to have something the others weren't allowed.
Although she knew she wasn't allowed to touch it without her mothers permission, curiosity got the better of her and she grabbed it. However, it was way too big for her small arm, so she sat down and laid it on her lap to use it.
"Ladies and gentlemen," she spoke to no-one. "Welcome to the World Champships, where you can see the bestest duels ever!" The imaginary crowd cheered as she activated the duel disk. "And now for the moment you've all been waiting for, it's time to see my- Electras bestest monster!" She pulled out her ace with a flourish just like Jack had taught her. "Come on out, Flamvell Fiend!" The imaginary crowd went crazy at seeing her slap her card down on the centre monster card slot of the duel disk.
As she did this, a bright light flashed from the duel disk and Flamvell Fiend appeared in front of her. But something felt weird as she summoned the monster. The room suddenly went really warm, but Electra just ignored it. She just assumed that it was supposed to happen as she had never used a duel disk before.
"Now Flamvell Fiend, destroy the... um," she looked around for a victim for the hologram to 'destroy'. Her gaze landed on an old vase of flowers that had long since died. "Go Flamvell Fiend, destroy the flowers!"
Flamvell Fiend summoned a flame ball in its hands before throwing it at the flowers. But as soon as the attack hit the flowers, the flame ball exploded, showering the kitchen in flames that were... real?
Her eyes widened and cold sweat dripped down her back in fear as she saw the destruction she had caused. The heat was so intense that the window that had been behind the flowers had shattered upon impact.
Flames licked up the walls as everything was consumed in black smoke.
A loud bang of something exploding behind her snapped her from her initial shock as something slammed into her back, throwing her to the floor. Grabbing her deck, and throwing the duel disk away from her, she scurried under the kitchen table screaming in pain from her back. With tears streaming down her face, she rolled on her back as her mother had taught her to do in case she was ever on fire. Flamvell Fiend had disappeared when she had removed the card from the duel disk.
She looked around in panic and fear, screaming for her mom and dad and Jack.
With her deck gripped tightly in her left hand, she pushed her hands to her ears as hard as she could to try and block out the pain of her burning, stinging flesh on her back. Rocking slowly back and forth with her eyes screwed shut and knees drawn close up to her chest, she half cried, half choked out pleas for help.
Jack had seen the explosion from outside and once he had recovered from the shock of what was happening, he charged into the house. He had to find his little sister, even if it was the last thing he ever did.
He burst through the kitchen door and saw Electra almost immediately. He ran to the table and grabbed her arms, pulling them from the side of her head. Her eyes snapped open.
Jack saw the pure terror in her eyes as she rushed forwards and attached herself to his chest. He glanced at her back and noticed that there were holes burned through her jumper and he could see the burn marks on her skin. Sweeping one arm under her legs and one behind her back, being careful to watch out for the burns, and carried her outside of the burning building.
A crowd had gathered outside and as soon as they ran out, people rushed over to help them. Jack held Electra close to him, not wanting to let her go in case he would never see her again.
Jack noticed that Martha was one of these people and he rushed over to her to get her to help. As soon as Martha saw Jack emerge from the blaze, she rushed over to help him.
"Jack, bring her over here," she called out. She saw Jack's head snap round to her direction and a small hint of relief crossed his face. He quickly but carefully carried Electra over to Martha where she told him to take her to Doctor Schmidt.
Once they arrived at Martha's, Jack walked through into the hospital section and carefully laid Electra down on the bed as Doctor Schmidt walked in.
"Jack, could you just wait outside please while I take care of your sister?" When he showed no signs of moving, the doctor tried another tactic. "Yusei and Crow are out there, and they're really worried." Jack just nodded to him and walked out.
The rest of the day was like a blur for both Electra and Jack. Electra survived the incident but had permanent scarring on her back. She didn't like it so she would always keep her back covered by her jumper. The only people who knew about her scars were Jack, Martha and Doctor Schmidt.
It was from then on that Jack promised to himself that he would not let anyone or anything hurt his little sister ever again.
Sorry about any spelling and grammar mistakes but I had to write the chapter on my tablet and let's just say me and auto correct don't exactly get along. Enjoy.
