I made sure that I had my extra deck stored in the hidden compartment under my seat, along with a few other things. An extra set of clothes in case something happens, my tools if my runner does break, and the box.
Rally carried it over to me, "Hey, are ya ever going to tell us what's in the box?"
I shook my head, "Sorry, Rally, but that's my box of secrets. Only things I want to be kept secret are in there. So in others words...no one is ever going to see the inside of it except me."
I rolled my duel runner down to the main level after I showed Nervin how to use the program I set up on the computer. Rally jumped down, "I have something to give you before you leave."
She handed me a card, Turbo Booster. I stared at it in surprise, "This is your favorite card. Why give it to me?"
"For good luck!"
I smiled at her, "Thank you. And guys?"
They looked at me, "Keep her safe, okay? I'll get back as soon as I can, but it might be a month from now, when the pipe opens next."
They all nodded.
"Of course we will Yuse."
"We always stick together."
"Just get our revenge."
I smiled and nodded, "Well, here I go!"
I put on my helmet and shot off down the tunnels. This was going to be quite the ride, even if I don't' get caught. But if I do...let's just say I wouldn't mind the break in this 45 minute ride.
I shot out of the tunnels, and hurried to the waste plant. Just like in all of the test runs, I still had about ten minutes before the hatch would close.
Suddenly something hit me in the side. I sped up and glanced back, Oh, come on! Where did that copper come from?
It was the cop that laughed way too much last time we dueled. I shook my head and hit the throttle as much as I could. I heard him prattling about something, but I didn't have time to care. I felt a couple bumps as I ran over the barricade, and then I lept over the gate. Come on, Justice! You can do this!
I barely stuck the landing, but kept on going. I heard another runner behind me as he laughed, "My duel runner can activate duel mode in yours, forcing you into a duel whether or not you like it."
"Speed World set, Autopilot, standby."
I grunted, "Fine. Let's do this."
Not the kind of excitement I was hoping for, but I can probably handle this.
He laughed, "I get the first turn! I summon Gate Blocker in defense mode and place one card facedown."
Gate Blocker-2000
"My turn!" I stared at my speed counters in shock, "What on earth?"
He snorted with laughter, "Gate Blocker is a card only in the decks of Security officers. It makes it so your opponent can't gain speed or speed counters as long as it is on the field."
I bit back an insult and summoned Speed Warrior.
Speed Warrior-900
He laughed, "So? Even if it doubles it points, it's still not enough to destroy Gate Blocker."
Speed Warrior-1800
"I summon Turbo Booster in attack mode."
Turbo Booster-0
"What use is that monster? It has no attack points!"
I sighed, "I release Turbo Booster in order to use its special ability. I can destroy your monster, regardless of points, and mine isn't destroyed."
"But you'll still take damage!"
I shrugged, "So? Go Speed Warrior!"
Life Points Yusei=3800
I sped up, hoping to gain some speed now. Trudge spoke, "I activate my trap, Broken Blocker. If a monster with more defense than attack points is destroyed, I can summon two of them in defense mode."
Gate Blocker-2000
Gate Blocker-2000
Oh, come on! I sighed, "I set two cards facedown, and end my turn."
Speed Warrior-900
He smiled, "I summon Gonogo in attack mode!"
Gonogo-1350
"Now attack that Speed Warrior!"
Life Points Yusei=3350
"My turn! I summon Junk Synchron, and activate Graceful Revival to summon Speed Warrior from the graveyard."
Junk Synchron-700
Speed Warrior-900
"Now you can probably guess what is coming next, I synchro summon Junk Warrior!"
Junk Warrior-2300
"Now attack that Gonogo!"
Life Points Trudge=3050
"My turn, I summon Jutte Fighter in attack mode."
Jutte Fighter-700
"Looks like it's your turn to synchro summon."
"Sure is, and I synchro summon Goyo Guardian!"
Goyo Guardian-2800
"Now get Junk Warrior!"
Life Points Yusei=2850
"Goyo Guardian's special ability allows him to take the monster he destroys, and put it in defensive mode on my side of the field."
Junk Warrior-1300
"Next I activate a speed spell, Sonic Buster!"
Oh yeah, I've been waiting for that. I quietly activated Slip Stream, and watched him act so pleased about the fact that I was going to be taking 1400 points of damage.
Life Points Yusei=1450
"And now...I activate another Sonic Buster."
You are just getting more and more annoying.
Life Points Yusei=50
"My turn, and I summon Nitro Synchron."
Nitro Synchron-300
"Then I activate Dash Pilfer."
"You can't do that you don't have…"
"Noticed something on my field? When you used your first Sonic Buster I activated this little spell here which made my speed counters the same as yours. Now, Dash Pilfer allows me to take a monster on your side of the field in defense mode, and bring it to my side, so long as I have four or more speed counters, which I now do. I chose Junk Warrior."
"Now I synchro summon Nitro Warrior."
Nitro Warrior-2800
"If, on the turn he is summoned, a speed spell was used, he gains 1000 attack points. Now take out that Goyo Guardian."
Nitro Warrior-3800
Life Points Trudge=1050
"Then his special effect comes into play, which turns one of your monsters in defense mode into attack mode and can attack it. Without the 1000 extra points, but it's more than enough for now."
Life Points Trudge=0 Defeat!
Just as I shot free, the hatch opened, dumping things that were enormous into the tunnel. Shoot, shoot, come on, Justice, come on! I did my best to maneuver around, and went over the top of the tunnel. I skidded when I hit the bottom and started sliding towards the door. This works, just make it to the side tunnel.
The door slammed shut, thankfully with me on the side I wanted to be on, even if it was a little difficult regaining control. It took a minute for me to come to a safe stop, and I took a quick break trying to calm down my heart-rate.
I sighed, Time to catch up with Jack.
I gunned my runner and went through the tunnels.
A/N: A little later in the day than I was expecting, but hey! I did it on time! Hope y'all liked it. Hope you had a wonderful Monday.
