What's up guys? Saintalpha7 here, this story here is for my all-time favorite Yugioh series. GX would be my second favorite. Anyway, unlike my GX story "New Beginning and New threat" this story is going to be a bit longer and hopefully more entertaining. Now of course when it comes to a Yugioh story, you want to add all of the things they we Yugioh fans would wish that would happen such as the main character to be with the girl he loves or vis versa, or there might some things were left out that were untold. Well in this story a lot of things will happen. A little breakdown of this story. Yusei has lately been having some strange feeling around New Domino. He fears that a new enemy has come to destroy mankind. He's been having visons from his father telling about an old friend that he met when he was a boy himself. Now Yusei is forced to watch his back while still coming to turns that his friends are no longer in New Domino City and that he's lately been thinking about Akiza. A whole new way of dueling is coming a new Turbo Dueling theme is added to the game.


Yugioh 5D's:

Tides to Chaos

Chapter/Episode 2

Yusei's Trials


It is 7:00AM, Yusei opens his eyes. He looked around his room to see if anything was strange. He sits up and looks out the window.

"Sigh… another sleepless night. Keep on having the same dream. What does it mean?" Yusei wondered.

Yusei looked at his arm that has the Mark.

Flashback.

"What can I do for you Yusei?" Lazar asked.

Yusei walked into Lazar's office.

"I was wondering if you can help me track someone down." Yusei said.

"Who would that be?" Lazar asked.

"I don't know his last name, but his first name is Seymour." Yusei said.

"Conner huh? Hmm, let me check in our database." Lazar said.

He got on his computer.

"Why do you need to find this person?" Lazar asked.

"Because of this." Yusei said.

Yusei pulled his sleeve back showing Lazar the Mark. Lazar's eye widens.

"Whoa! What, so does this mean that you're a Signer again?!" Lazar said.

"I would appear so, yesterday I was facing a monster that I have never seen before. This monster was dealing real damage. Once I was in pain, this Mark came back to me." Yusei said.

Lazar got of his chair.

"Oh, dear me… if you got your Mark back, that means a new evil is either coming or its already here." Lazar said.

"Yeah, and I was told that this new evil scares the Crimson Dragon." Yusei said.

"WHAT?!" Lazar said. "How is that possible?!"

"From what I can gather is that there was a war with the demon before the one that Goodwin told us about. Apparently, this first war involved the Crimson Dragon and this Demonic Dragon." Yusei said.

"A Demonic Dragon? Interesting, that was never told in the legend." Lazar said.

"I figured as much, but I also ran into a servant of the Crimson Dragon named Crimzuya." Yusei said.

"Crimzuya? Well that's a name that I haven't heard in a long time." Lazar said.

"Wait, you know who Crimzuya is?" Yusei asked.

"Yes, Crimzuya it the Crimson Dragon's loyal servant. Goodwin told me about him, but not too much." Lazar said.

"I wonder if Goodwin knew anything about this first war." Yusei said.

"I can't be certain." Lazar said.

"I see, well, during this war, the Crimson Dragon was being aided by these 6 legendary dragons, and I was told that this Seymour character would know about these dragons." Yusei said.

"I see, if this Seymour can help us, I'll have a team to help me search this Seymour person." Lazar said.

"Good, also, Crimzuya told me that, one way to find Seymour is to follow the eagle." Yusei said.

"Follow the eagle? Well I don't recall seeing any eagles in the city." Lazar said.

"That's what Crimzuya told me." Yusei said.

"I see, well we'll search for this person. I'll let you know if I find anything." Lazar said.

"Thanks." Yusei said.

"What about the others? Do they have their Marks back?" Lazar asked.

"No, I'm the only one… for now." Yusei said.

"I see, but how are you going to talk something down that scares the Crimson Dragon?" Lazar asked.

"I don't know, maybe these 6 dragons can help us." Yusei said.

"I'll keep you informed if I find anything." Lazar said.

Yusei nodded and walked out.

Flashback over.

"Follow the Eagle?" Yusei wondered.

Yusei got off his bed, took a shower, ate breakfast and got dress. He got on his duel runner and drove to his work.

"It's been a week and I still haven't heard anything." Yusei said to himself "But I can't stop, if there is a new evil then I can't give up. I'm going have to find the Seymour character myself if I want my questions answered."

Yusei parked his duel runner. He took off the duel disk and it formed into his watch. He took out his lab coat and put it on. He walks into the building.

"Because if I'm the only one that will be facing this evil then I must hurry, because I don't have much time." Yusei said.

Yusei sees Chris.

"Hey, Chris!" Yusei said.

"Oh, Yusei! I heard about what happened." Chris said.

"That event happened a week ago." Yusei said.

"Yes, I know, but never had the chance to see you. I was out of town for since then. When I went back to the lab I was told by my Wife was missing." Chris said.

"Your wife?" Yusei said.

"Yes, her name is Jill." Chris said.

"I'm sorry to hear that. Have they found her?" Yusei asked.

"No…" Chris said.

"What happened?" Yusei asked.

"She was taking care of our child and then she went missing. The cops told me, I told a week off to try to find her… but I couldn't find her." Chris said.

"I see… well I hope they find her." Yusei said.

"Me too, our kid misses her a lot." Chris said.

"What's the kids name?" Yusei asked.

"He's name is James." Chris said.

"I see, who's watching him now?" Yusei asked.

"One of my good friends, his name is Leon." Chris said.

"Well that's good." Yusei said.

"Yeah, Leon said he would help me track the people who took Jill." Chris said.

"Well if you need my help, let me know." Yusei said.

"I will." Chris said.

"Alright." Yusei said.

"Anyway, what happened to you?" Chris asked.

"Well long story short, I'm a Signer again." Yusei said.

"Wow really?!" Chris said.

"Yeah, and apparently, there is a new evil." Yusei said.

"I see, so what do you have to do?" Chris asked.

"I first have to find this person named Seymour. He supposedly knows about these 6 legendary dragons, and I need those to fight this evil." Yusei said.

"Do you know where he's at?" Chris asked.

"No, all I know is that I need to follow the eagle." Yusei said.

"Some kind of riddle?" Chris said.

"One would think, because I've never seen an eagle here before." Yusei said.

"Hmm… maybe it's a duel monsters card." Chris said.

Yusei lived up his head.

"You know… you're probably right! All week I've been driving around the city trying to find an eagle, but I never thought that I would be a duel monsters card." Yusei said.

"Tell you what, I'll have my friend Leon look for areas where duels take place." Chris said.

"Really? You'll do that?" Yusei said.

"Of course, if you need to find this guy to save the world, how can I not help you?" Chris said.

"Thank you, Chris." Yusei said.

"Glad I can help." Chris said.

Five hours has passed. Someone in a black leather jacket walked into the building. The man walked up to the front desk.

"Excuse me, I need to see Chris." Man said.

"Chris who?" Front desk lady asked.

"Redfield, I'm a friend of his. My name is Leon." Leon said.

"Okay, if you can see down, I'll get him for you." Lady said.

"Alright, thank you." Leon said.

Leon sat down. He looked on the T.V and sees of what happened to Yusei from a week ago.

"Hm?" Leon said.

He saw Yusei smack the armored vehicle and the black ooze monster.

"What is that?" Leon said.

Chris walked to the center of the building. He sees Leon sitting.

"Leon!" Chris said.

"Hey, Chris!" Leon said.

"Were you able to find a few places?" Chris said.

"Yes, I found a lot of areas here. Hopefully Yusei can find the person he was looking for." Leon said.

"Yeah… but any word on Jill?" Chris asked.

"Sigh… I'm sorry Chris, but I haven't found anything." Leon said.

"Sigh… it's OK. She's out there somewhere." Chris said.

"Is this Leon you told me about, Chris?" Yusei asked.

"Yes, and he found places for you to search." Chris said.

"That's good, thank you, Leon." Yusei said.

"My pleasure… um I saw what you did on the news." Leon said.

"Hm?" Yusei said.

They all looked at the T.V.

"Oh, that day… yeah, it was because of this Mark." Yusei said.

Yusei showed Leon the Mark.

"Ah yes, the Mark of the Crimson Dragon." Leon said.

"Yeah, and that's how I was able to smack the armored car." Yusei said.

"I see, well, let us know if you found Seymour." Leon said.

"I will… oh, do any of you know someone named Irving?" Yusei said.

Chris looked at Yusei.

"Irving?!" Chris said.

"Yes, because he was there on that same day." Yusei said,

"Irving was one of the people that I tried to track down." Chris said. "He was involved with Wesker."

"Really? So, do you know what that monster is?" Yusei said.

They looked on the screen. Chris and Leon sees the monster.

"Oh… I know exactly what that is." Chris said.

"So, do I. Chris and I were fighting the same goal. I have my own fair share of monsters that I've dealt with." Leon said.

"Really? Than what is that thing." Yusei asked.

"That was a Bio Organic Weapon, B.O.W for short. Irving creates those monsters to do anything. I thought he was dead, but I guess not." Chris said.

"Do you think that he might have something to do with Jill?" Yusei asked.

"Now that I know that Irving is alive, he might. Wesker turned Jill against me by controlling her. Irving was a part of Wesker team." Chris said.

"Well, he's with Sector Security right now at the facility." Yusei said.

"He is? Alright, I'm going to pay him a visit." Chris said.

"Let me come with you." Leon said.

"I'll go too. I told Trudge that if I find something about the black stuff I would tell him." Yusei said.

"Okay, lead the way Yusei." Chris said.

All three of them walked out of the building. A young lady walks up to the three boys.

"Is this Yusei, Leon?" Lady said.

"Yes, Yusei, this is my Wife Ada." Leon said.

"Oh, nice to meet you." Yusei said.

"Likewise, I heard about you. Quite impressive, and I normally don't say that." Ada said.

"I'll keep that in mind." Yusei said.

"So, what now?" Ada asked.

"We're going to go see Irving." Chris said.

"Psycho Irving?" Ada said.

"Yes, he's apparently alive." Leon said.

"I see, well count me in." Ada said.

"Fair enough, let's go." Yusei said.

Facility.

Yusei and the other three walked into the facility. Everyone is looking around that place.

"Big place." Leon said.

"Yeah, be careful. Some of these people with attack." Yusei said.

As they were walking, one of the prisoners tried to smack Ada's butt. Ada looked to the corner of her eye. She grabbed the prisoner by the waist and flipped him over to the ground. Yusei looked at Ada.

"Or, you can do that." Yusei said.

Leon looked at the prisoner.

"Don't touch my wife." Leon said.

Yusei looked forward. He sees Trudge.

"Trudge!" Yusei said.

"Hm? Oh, Yusei." Trudge said. "What brings you here?"

"That black stuff, these three knows what it is, and knows Irving." Yusei said.

"Really? Well, let me show you guys where he's at." Trudge said.

All five of them went underground. Two guards let them in. The guards shut the doors.

"There he is." Trudge said.

Irving is sitting on a character chained to a wall.

"Irving…" Chris said.

Irving looks forward and sees Chris.

"Well, well, well… look what the B.O.W dragged in." Irving said.

"Alright… where is Jill?" Chris asked.

"Jill? Oh, you mean your Wife?" Irving said. "Oh well, I have no idea."

"Stop playing stupid! I know you know where she is! Or have you forgotten how Wesker and yourself turned her against me!" Chris said.

"Of course, I haven't forgotten, but doesn't mean I know where she is." Irving said.

"Bullshit! You're the one who sent the B.O.W to attack Yusei!" Chris said.

"What's your point?" Irving asked.

"My point is that she went missing the same day that the B.O.W attacked him!" Chris said.

"I still don't see your point—AHH!" Irving yelled.

Chris pulled him closer.

"Stop playing around, I want answers! NOW!" Chris said.

"Look, if you're just going to try to yank me out of these chains and hurting me, I'm not going to say anything." Irving said. "Besides, if I knew something, do you really think I would tell you?" Irving said.

Chris threw Irving to the wall.

"I know you're hiding something. And I'm not leaving until I get my answers!" Chris said.

"Well, unlike you, I have nowhere to go, so I can sit here all I want. I got all the time in the world." Irving said. "So instead of staring at me, how about you go out and find her yourself?"

"Chris, I don't think he'll talk." Trudge said.

"Gr! Dammit!" Chris said.

Irving looked forward and smirked. Yusei sees the smirk. Yusei looked behind him and sees a flash grenade.

"Everyone look out!" Yusei said.

Everyone saw the grenade. Everyone covered their eyes and moved out of the way. The grenade exploded, a muscle man busted into the room where Irving is at. He dashed to Irving and broke the chains. He grabs Irving.

"Let's go!" Muscle man said.

"HAHAHAHA! See ya sucks!" Irving said.

Everyone opened their eyes and saw the Irving is gone.

"Damn! He's getting away!" Chris said.

Everyone ran out of the room and went after Irving.

"Attention all guards, we have Irving has escaped! I repeat, Irving has escaped! Seal all exits!" Trudge said.

The exits started to be sealed.

"That should stop him!" Chris said.

Ada noticed that Leon looked a bit off.

"Leon, you okay?" Ada said.

"Yeah… that voice back in the room… I know that voice!" Leon said.

Everyone made it to the center of the facility.

"Where is he?!" Chris said.

Leon looked down. He sees Irving and another person.

"Down there!" Leon said.

"Guards get them!" Trudge said.

Irving and the other person was being blocked by guards.

"Shit! We are trapped!" Irving said.

The Muscle man looked around.

"Heh, 50 guards vs. me… I like those odds." Muscle man said.

"Irving!" Chris yelled.

"Oh shit! He's here too!" Irving said.

The other man turned around. Leon sees the other man. Leon's eyes widen.

"I knew it!" Leon said.

"Heh, Leon, it's been a long time." Muscle man said.

Everyone stopped in front of Irving.

"You're surrounded!" Trudge said.

"Hehe… you would like to think that." Muscle man said.

"Identify yourself!" Trudge said.

"That's Jack Krauser!" Leon said.

"You know him?!" Yusei said.

"Of course, we know each other, we were comrades at one point." Krauser said.

"I thought he was dead!" Leon said.

"Leon and I fought him and ended up killing him" Ada said. "But we should've known that I he wouldn't be dead."

"Oh, I did die. But I was giving another chance." Krauser said.

"By who?!" Leon said.

"Hehe, I would love to sit and chat with old friends, but Irving and I have plans with our master." Krauser said.

"I want some answers! Where is Jill?!" Chris said.

"Heh, Jill? Oh yes, your wife." Krauser said. "Well, all I have to say I would forget about her if I were you."

"Forget about her?!" Chris said. "I WANT TO KNOW NOW!"

Chris ran at Krauser and tried to punch him. Krauser dashed to the side and punched Chris in the rips. He then hooked Chris's leg and swipe him to the ground.

"AHHH!" Chris yelled.

Leon did a flying sided-kick at Krauser. Krauser backed off, Ada keep at him with a fan kick. Krauser hits the ground.

"GRR!" Krauser growled. "You'll pay for that!"

"Arrest these two!" Trudge said.

"No one is getting arrested!" Krauser yelled.

Krauser raised his right arm, his arm lit up with the Mark of the Crimson Dragon's wings but it was Purple instead. Yusei sees the Mark.

"What?!" Yusei said.

"By the power of the undead dragon, give me the power to vanquish my enemies!" Krauser yelled.

His fist lit up in darkness. He slams his fist to the ground. The ground started to crack, darkness start to arise from the ground. The darkness became monsters from the Netherworld. All the monsters roared at Yusei and the others. Yusei's arm lit up.

"Stardust Dragon!" Yusei said.

Krauser looked at Yusei. Stardust came from the skies and broke through the roof and landed to the ground.

"Everyone, get out of here!" Yusei said.

"No way! I'm fighting!" Chris said.

"Chris don't be a fool! This is real damage we are talking about here! Now go!" Yusei said.

Krauser looked at Yusei's arm.

"So, you're the famous Yusei Fudo. The one with the head of the Crimson dragon." Krauser said.

"So, what if I am?" Yusei said.

"Heh, so, if you are…" Krauser said.

Krauser's left arm started to mutate.

"Then, I want you dead!" Krauser said.

Krauser's arm formed into a blade arm. Yusei stepped back.

"What—what are you?!" Yusei asked.

"Hahaha! Not your concern. Krauser said.

"Everyone get out of here!" Yusei said.

A red orb came out of Stardust. The Crimson Dragon appeared and carried everyone but Yusei away.

"Yusei, no!" Leon said.

"Heh, the Crimson Dragon. A powerful beast, but even that thing has its fears." Krauser said.

"How did you get that Mark?!" Yusei asked.

"That's not important. What is important is me killing you!" Krauser said.

Krauser launched his arm at Yusei. Yusei rolled to the ground. Stardust used its wing to smack Krauser to the wall. Krauser's eyes turned black. He launched at Stardust and went through Stardust like a bullet. Yusei's eyes widen, he puts his hands on his chest and falls to his knees.

"AHHHHHHH!" Yusei yelled.

Blood started to come out of Yusei's chest. Stardust fell to the ground. Yusei's eyes turned to the color of the Crimson Dragon.

"Stardust! Use the power of the Majestic Dragon!" Yusei said.

Krauser looked at Yusei.

"Hm?" Krauser said.

An orb hits Stardust. Stardust started to evolve. It became the Majestic Star Dragon. Krauser looked at the dragon.

"Shit!" Krauser said.

"Majestic Star Dragon! Attack Krauser!" Yusei yelled.

Majestic Star Dragon dashed at Krauser. The dragon slashes Krauser in the chest. He hit the ground.

"GRRR!" Krauser growled.

Yusei ran at Krauser and punched him the face. Krauser backed off and came at Yusei with his left arm. Yusei snapped his fingers. Krauser slowed down. Yusei moved out of the way, Yusei roundhouse kick Krauser to the rips. Krauser's right palm lit up with electricity and launched a lighting ball at Yusei. Yusei got shocked. Krauser then thrust kicked Yusei to the ground. Krauser jumps in the air and does a flip and comes straight down with his arm. Yusei rolls to the side. Krauser got stuck to the ground. Yusei got up and kicks Krauser in the face. Krauser fell to the ground.

"Gr! I may have underestimated you, Yusei!" Krauser said.

"Your mistake! Now tell me where you got that Mark?!" Yusei depended.

Krauser got up.

"All in good time, Yusei." Krauser said.

"Enough games!" Yusei said.

Krauser points his blade are at Yusei.

"But the game has just started." Krauser said.

Yusei readied himself. Krauser's eyes turn black. He disappeared and reappeared behind Yusei. Krauser swing his blade arm at Yusei. Yusei snapped his fingers. Yusei dodged Krauser's attack. Krauser tried to attack again, but Yusei keeps on dodging because of his Signer power. Yusei moved to Krauser's right and uppercut him. Majestic Star Dragon charged at Krauser. Krauser hits the wall. Krauser breaks off the wall and lands to the ground.

"Good, Yusei!" Krauser said.

Leon came at Krauser with his knife. Leon cut Krauser's chest. Krauser jumped away from Leon.

"Leon!" Yusei said.

"This is my fight too, Yusei." Leon said.

"Heh, fair enough. I can take you both on!" Krauser said.

Leon took out his gun and fired at Krauser. He slides to the side and runs at Leon and tries to cut him. Leon does a back handspring. Yusei comes at Krauser. Krauser slides again and elbows Yusei in the chest. Krauser than spins and tries to cut Yusei's head off. Yusei's arm glow and blocked Krauser's attack. Krauser backed off.

"What?!" Krauser said.

Yusei has a shield with a sword sticking out. Yusei looked at his shield.

"Whoa!" Yusei said.

"This is the Stardust Sword." Crimzuya said. "Use this to defeat the Dark Dragon Signer!"

Yusei looked up and nodded his head. Yusei pull the sword out of the shield. Yusei pointed at Krauser.

"Now it's fair!" Yusei said.

"Heh, bring it on!" Krauser said.

They both ran at each out. Krauser jumped and did front flip trying to slam his arm on Yusei. Yusei uses his shield to block Krauser's attack. Leon shot Krauser in the back.

"AHHHHHHHH!" Krauser yelled.

Yusei pushed Krauser off him. Yusei then back slashed Krauser in the chest. Yusei then punched Krauser with the shield. Krauser goes 10 feet and hits the wall.

"GAHHHHH!" Krauser yelled.

Yusei and Leon stood side by side and looked at Krauser. Leon has his gun ready and Yusei has his sword and shield ready.

"It's over Krauser!" Leon said.

"Heh!" Krauser chuckled.

Krauser threw a flash grenade at the two. It exploded, Yusei and Leon covered their eyes. Krauser jumped to the top of a jet. They both looked up.

"It isn't over until one us is dead. Besides, our little fight was for Irving to escape!" Krauser said.

"What?!" Yusei said.

"Your friends… how do say… attacked while they took Irving. I'll let you two deal with him." Krauser said.

A human size monster jumped into the facility and landed next Yusei and Leon.

"Oh great!" Leon said.

"And this time, Leon, this speed demon isn't like the one you've faced. Have fun." Krauser said.

The jet took off. The monster started to growl at them.

"What is this, Leon?" Yusei asked.

"They call it Verdugo. A very fast demon. I had to face one years ago. But this one is more ferocious then the one I faced!" Leon said.

Verdugo jumps at Yusei and Leon. They both rolled to the ground. Yusei's eyes scanned Verdugo's body.

"I can see why; this monster was created by another being." Yusei said.

"From who?" Leon asked.

"I wish I knew, but this monster is different then it's last boss." Yusei said.

Verdugo runs at Yusei and tries to stab him with its tail. Yusei used his shield to block the attack. Yusei moved the tail and cuts the tail off. Verdugo roars in agony. Verdugo claws Yusei in the chest and kicked 50 feet away. Yusei hits the wall and hits the ground.

"Yusei!" Leon said.

Yusei struggles to get up. Leon pulls out a magnum and fires at Verdugo. Verdugo got shun and looked at Leon.

"Come on you son of a bitch!" Leon said.

Verdugo runs at Leon and jumps at him with his claw. Leon dodges his attack. Yusei gets up, he looks at his chest.

"Gr!" Yusei growled in pain. "This new enemy has his own army!" Yusei said.

Yusei looks at Verdugo.

"But I have to defeat them all!" Yusei said.

Yusei runs at Verdugo.

"Eat this!" Yusei yelled.

Verdugo looks at Yusei. Yusei slashes Verdugo in the eye. Verdugo puts its hand on its eye and backs off. Verdugo got angry and jumps at Yusei. Leon shot Verdugo in the head with the magnum. Verdugo goes 10 face and hits the ground.

"Now Majestic Star Dragon! Finish him off!" Yusei said.

The dragon rushed at Verdugo and cuts it in half. Verdugo roared in agony and fell apart. Yusei fell on his knee.

"Ugh!" Yusei groan.

"You alright?" Leon asked.

"Yeah… that just took a lot more than I expected." Yusei said.

"Well, come on, we need to get you somewhere safe and patch out those cuts." Leon said.

Yusei got up.

"I'll be fine." Yusei said. "We need to find the others."

They both stepped out of the facility and sees the front in ruin.

"Whoa! What happened here?!" Yusei said.

Yusei sees Trudge on the ground with a black bar in his side stuck to the wall.

"Trudge!" Yusei said.

Trudge slowly opened his eyes.

"Yu—Yusei!" Trudge said weakly.

"What happened here?!" Yusei asked.

"We were attacked by— 'coughs' by a strange monster. Something I have never seen before." Trudge said weakly.

"Oh man… we need to get you to the hospital." Yusei said.

Trudge struggle to get up. He fell back to the wall.

"Gr!" Trudge growled. "This bar is in the way."

Trudge slowly pulled the bar out. With every inch, Trudge started to feel more pain.

"GRR!" Trudge growled in agony. "Yusei, pull the bar!"

Yusei grabbed the bar. Leon was ready for a big cloth. Yusei pull and yanked the bar out.

"AHHHHHHH!" Trudge yelled.

Leon put the cloth on Trudge.

"You're going to make it, Trudge." Yusei said.

"Where is Chris? And Ada?" Leon said.

Trudge pointed and see them under a car.

"Ada! Chris!" Leon said.

Chris reached out. Yusei run up the Chris.

"Hey! Hey hang in there!" Yusei said.

"Yu-Yusei!" Chris said.

"Don't talk, save your strength." Yusei said.

Yusei put his hands under the car. Stardust appeared behind Yusei and helped him with the car. Leon helped Ada and Yusei helped Chris.

"We have to get them all to the hospital!" Leon said.

"You're right, let's move!" Yusei said.

"We're going to need a lot of help. Because these cops need medical attention." Leon said.

Yusei and Leon looked around the area.

"This is too much." Yusei said.

5 hours has past, Yusei and Leon are sitting in the waiting room. Mina came into the hospital.

"Yusei!" Mina said.

"Hey, Mina." Yusei said.

"What happened out there?!" Mina said.

"Irving got away, and something attack Trudge and the others. Leon and I are the only ones that are in one piece." Yusei said. "Well mostly in one piece.

Yusei looked at his cuts.

"Oh, my gosh…" Mina said. "What did the doctors say?"

"For Trudge and the others, they'll need to be in the hospital for a while." Leon said.

"Sigh… Trudge and 50 cops are down but one person." Mina said.

"Some superhuman." Yusei said.

"What do you mean?" Mina said.

"We ran into someone named Jack Krauser. And he had a Signer Marking." Yusei said.

"What?!" Mina said.

"Yeah, but it was dark and it had the Crimson Dragons wings, like Jack's." Yusei said.

(In case you guys didn't figure it out, later in the story it's going to be Jack Vs Jack. Irony for everyone, right?)

"This is insane… so, a Marking of the Crimson Dragon, but it was a Dark Sign?!" Mina said.

"Yes, and he had unbelievable powers." Yusei said. "He formed his arm into some mutated arm blade, he could dodge bullets and other things… I can't tell if that's all he can do. I did was given this new weapon." Yusei said.

Yusei brought out the sword and shield.

"Whoa! How did you get that?" Mina said.

"A servant of the Crimson Dragon gave it to me. I think with me becoming a Signer again, I think I'm about to deal real damage with me cards as well as summon my monsters to aid me in battle. Because twice, I could summon Stardust Dragon to help me. But whenever Stardust takes damage, I too will take damage." Yusei said.

"This is very interesting… I wonder if the others will be involved." Mina said.

"I…I hope not." Yusei said.

"Why do you say that?! Yusei, we need as much help as possible!" Mina said.

"I know and I'm with you on that, but after what I've told you and what I've witnessed and felt… I can't stand to see them in the same position as myself." Yusei said.

"But how are you going to take these people?! If the Krauser had a Mark like Jack's then what makes you think others won't have the same Marks as you and the others?!" Mina said.

"I get what you're saying, Mina, but would you want to see Jack hurt because of those people?" Yusei said.

Mina was silent.

"…No… I wouldn't." Mina said.

"Now you see my point?" Yusei said.

"Yeah…" Mina said.

Yusei puts his head down.

"This Krauser character… he isn't like the enemies we've faced. He has the powers as a Signer… and I know that he has friends that has the other Marks too. Jack, Crow, Leo, Luna… and Akiza… they have their futures to do." Yusei said.

Yusei looks at Mina.

"It's just me now… They did their part, but my part isn't over." Yusei said.

"But you already did enough by yourself." Mina said.

"According to the Crimson Dragon, my mission isn't over." Yusei said. "We have Trudge in the ER, and I don't even want to think about it if was first to go."

"What do we do then?" Mina asked.

"We have to find Seymour. We need his help to find those dragon cards." Yusei said.

"But we don't even know where he is!" Mina said.

"No, but we have to try to find him." Yusei said. "I didn't come this far to see everyone get hurt."

"Yusei, in all due respects for your friends, but they would want to help you because you're their friend." Leon said.

"Yes, I know… but I can't put them in harm's way." Yusei said.

Yusei started to walk away.

"Why are you— "Leon said.

"It just makes me feel better. Let's just leave it as that." Yusei said.

Yusei walked out of the hospital.

"I can't afford for them to put their lives in danger… I would be dragging them into a battle they have not yet seen." Yusei said. "So, for now… I'm on my own."

Yusei looked up and sees an eagle. Yusei's eye widen.

"An… an eagle!" Yusei said.

Yusei ran after the eagle. Yusei is in the forest. Yusei started to look around.

"Where did that eagle go?!" Yusei said.

Someone in the shadow started to appear from behind of Yusei. Yusei felt something behind him. He turns around with the Stardust sword in his hand and pointed it at the man in white.

"It's not nice to sneak up on people!" Yusei said.

The man looks at the sword.

"The Stardust Sword huh?" Man, in white said.

"So, what if it is?! Who are you?!" Yusei said.

"Me? Well, I'm the one you've been searching for." Seymour said.

"What?! You're Seymour?!" Yusei said.

(And no, it's not Seymour from Final Fantasy X.)

"Indeed, I am, I was told that you were looking for me." Seymour said.

"By whom?!" Yusei said.

"Crimzuya of course." Seymour said.

"You know who he is?" Yusei said.

"Yes, he wanted you find out of how to find me to test you." Seymour said.

"Test for what?!" Yusei asked.

Seymour held his arm up. Yusei stared at Seymour.

"Huh?" Yusei wondered.

A sword with teeth appeared in his hand. Seymour got ready to fight.

"Huh?! What's the meaning of this?!" Yusei asked.

"To test you, Crimzuya wants me to see if you would come find me. He figured if you would face me, and show that you would not be afraid, then it would be the perfect person to fight in this coming war." Seymour said.

"So, I have to fight you now?! I've been searching for you, trying to see where those dragon cards are at, and now I have to fight you?!" Yusei said.

"It's true that you've been searching for me, but something is holding you back. And it's my job to find out what it is. Crimzuya sees your fears and doubts, he knows deep down that you don't want to be a part of this war, but he also knows that you won't back down either. You're fighting with yourself to figure of what you should do. This battle, will tell you of what you should do." Seymour said.

"How will that determine my answer?!" Yusei asked.

"Well, that's all up for you to figure out." Seymour said.

"Gr!" Yusei growled.

Seymour jumps at Yusei and tries slash him. Yusei used his shield to block Seymour's attack.

"There must be something else we can do!" Yusei said.

"Heh, as I expected." Seymour said.

Seymour pushed Yusei back and slashes Yusei up into the air. Yusei hits the ground.

"AHHHH!" Yusei yelled.

Yusei got up slowly.

"What do you mean?!" Yusei said.

"You're afraid to fight, again aren't you?" Seymour said.

"I'm not scared!" Yusei said.

"Oh? Well, then prove me wrong… attack me!" Seymour said.

"You asked for it!" Yusei yelled.

Yusei ran at Seymour. Yusei jumps at Seymour with his sword. Seymour blocks Yusei's attack.

"Are you still staying that you're still not scared? Because from where I'm standing, I can see in your eyes that you are afraid…" Seymour said.

Seymour looked closer and he sees Akiza in his eyes.

"Oh… I see now." Seymour said.

Seymour knocks the sword out of Yusei's hand and elbows Yusei in the chest and palm strikes him. Yusei goes 10 feet away from Seymour. Yusei rolled to the ground and hits his back on a tree.

"Gr!" Yusei growled.

"Akiza is her name, right?" Yusei said.

Yusei's eyes widen.

"Huh?!" Yusei said.

"Your friend, Akiza, you're afraid that you might lose her because of this war." Seymour said.

"She's a friend, Seymour!" Yusei said.

"Oh? Well then let me as you this, the necklace you carry. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a picture of you and her together. You couldn't stand if something bad were to happen to her. When you went to go see her when she was in that coma… you feared losing her." Seymour said.

Yusei got up.

"What's your point?!" Yusei said.

"Heh, my point is that, you want to protect her, but you're afraid that something bad will happen to her if she comes to this war with you. Your eyes tell me that you miss her, you care, you love her. Am I right?" Seymour said.

Yusei's eyes widen.

"Akiza, someone that is beautiful, someone that knows what it means to be an outcast. Someone that you bond with, she's important to you." Seymour said.

Yusei stood there with his head down.

"It's true of what you said about her… and you are right that I'm feared of losing her. But that's not what I'm afraid of." Yusei said.

"Hm?" Seymour said.

"I'm… I'm afraid to lose everything. When I faced Z-one, I almost lost everyone. I lost Bruno, and I almost lost everyone else. I tried to keep them away from Ark Cradle, but they followed me." Yusei said.

"But they went with because you are their friend." Seymour said.

"I know, but because of me, everyone almost died…" Yusei said.

"Why do you say that? Is it because the everyone the is evil will target at you because they know that you're the only one who is standing in their way? Yusei, you must realize that your friends will go with you whether you're the center of the attention for evil or not. They went with you because it involved them too. Their home was in danger, no one blames you of what happened to Bruno." Seymour said.

"Then why couldn't I save him?! Why couldn't I stop my friends from being in danger?!" Yusei said.

"You can't save everyone, Yusei. You can try to save as many people. But you won't save them all." Seymour said. "Do you want to know why the others haven't got their Marks back?"

"Why haven't they?" Yusei asked.

"It's because of you. You're the one who pulls and pushes everyone together. If you're not at your best, they can't help you. And worse of all, if they can't help you, then they will die because they couldn't without their Marks. Sure, the Crimson Dragon gives the Marks to people, but it needs the one with the head Mark to have the courage and strength to face their fears and protect those who are in need." Seymour said. "If you don't fight your fears, then the entire world with be lost, and if you thought that losing your friends was bad, just think if the entire world was at risk of dying."

"Sigh…" Yusei said.

Seymour walked up to Yusei.

"I know what it means to lose someone that is close. I lost the one I loved because of evil. I feared losing anyone else, but I had to rise and face that fear. You've face them before with the Immortals and the Meklord's and with Z-one." Seymour said.

"Yeah, but I had my friends with me during those times." Yusei said.

"And you still do, remember, you all share a bond the it limitless. Even though it's been 5 years, you still hold them dear to your heart. And you know that they do to. They will fight with you, but they need you to fight with. You say that you needed those six dragon cards. Let me tell you something about those dragons, they need a team, not a one-man army. One dragon for one Signer." Seymour said.

Yusei looked at Seymour.

"So, what's it going to be? Stay still and let the fears tear you apart? Or face them and have no fear?" Seymour said.

"Am I ready for it?" Yusei asked.

"You can be ready, but you have to set aside of those fears. I understand of fear, especially to someone you love. But if you're not at you best, then she will die." Seymour said.

Yusei put his head down. Seymour puts his hand on Yusei's shoulder.

"It's alright." Seymour said.

"Okay… I understand of what I must do. I'll fight this evil." Yusei said.

Seymour looked inside of Yusei, he sees a spark in his heart. Seymour smiled.

"Good, you've passed, Yusei." Seymour said.

Yusei looked at Seymour.

"Huh?" Yusei said.

"This test was meant for you to see if you were able to fight this evil and overcome your fears. Fighting and dueling would never solve that. You had to find it in your heart, and that's what you did. If you were to fail, then that Mark would have been gone, and those people with the Dark Signs would have destroyed everything already." Seymour said.

"Alright, so what's first?" Yusei asked.

"First we need to get the other Signers. Only then we can get those Dragon cards." Seymour said.

"Okay, so how do we get them here?" Yusei said.

"That's going to be the difficult part. If we must, we might have to find them. My friends can help us, for they are all round the world." Seymour said.

"Okay, well, I'm ready when you are." Yusei said.

"Alright good, we'll start looking for your friends. Once we've found them, we'll go search for the first Dragon card." Seymour said.

"Fair enough." Yusei said.

"Alright then it's settled, tomorrow we start." Seymour said.

"I just hope I'm up for this. Because if something happens to my friends… I won't forgive myself, but I have to do this for everyone, if not, then they'll be gone." Yusei said to himself.

Tanker.

A jet flew to a tanker that's on the Pacific Ocean. Krauser and Irving got out of the jet and walked into the main control center. Krauser walked up to someone in a chair.

"Master, I've retrieved the subject." Krauser said.

"Good, I trust that Yusei also got a sample of your power?" Master said.

"Of course, he doubted himself." Krauser said.

"Good, now of course I expect for him to still fight. But that's alright." Master said.

"What about the others?" Krauser said.

"Hmm, we got the Dragon head and Wings. We just need the other Marks." Master said.

He lifts his arm up. A screen appeared that has Akiza, Leo, Luna, and Crow.

"These are the only ones left. I just need find the ones that would be the perfect candidates." Master said.

"Shall I look for new people?" Krauser said.

"Yes, but first, I need to know a little more about their dueling history. Who they dueled, who they were with before becoming a Signer." Master said.

"What about Yusei?" Krauser said.

"Oh, I'll be taking care of him one way or another. After all…" Master said.

His right arm glowed showing a Dark Crimson Dragon Head Mark.

"He and I will have to battle sooner or later." Master said.

"Very well, I'll look for information on those 4 duelists." Krauser said.

"Good." Master said.

Krauser walked out of the room. The Master got up from his chair.

"Yusei Fudo… what I strange fate that I run into you." Master said.

Master looked outside in the rain.

"Well, you'll be meeting the same fate has he did. I'll make sure that you lose everything one by one." Master said.
