When Jaden was a safe distant away he slapped his forehead again. "Great I lied to one of the greatest people of Duel Monsters," he whispered to himself. He poked his head out from behind the tree yet again; Jaden was now up on stage getting ready to announce the winner of the Super Rare card. Jaden held a long black case too long for only one card to b in it. So Brian guessed the winner was to choose the card of their liking. He pulled his head back behind the tree unable to see who Jaden chose.
"And the Winner is...Brian Peirce" he said into his microphone.
Brian froze he felt like someone shot him with a paralysis dart. He could not move if his life depended on it.
Jaden smiled to where Brian was "Brian I know you're behind that tree. No reason in hiding."
Brian was still frozen solid, that is until he felt over, and quickly regained his footing and scratched the back of his head. "Uhhh Sorry my shoe was untied," he said obviously forgetting he had Velcro shoes on. He slowly walked up to the stage thinking the entire way What if I was chosen by mistake? What if he took pity on me, and is giving me this card so I can feel special? All these thought were going through Brian's mind the entire walk to the stage. Of course the walk seemed like an eternity. But he finally managed to make it to the Stage. "Hello Jaden, nice to see you so soon" he managed to mutter.
"Nice to see you too Brian," he said opening up the black box reveling three cards. "Now is the time to get that Fortieth card in your deck. Choose the one that catches your interest the most. But be careful once you choose the card that you want, you can't change your mind," explained Jaden.
Brian read the three cards carefully. Their Names were Spyro at the center, Protoman on the left, and something that looked like a giant pink ball of gum called Kirby. Of course Brian hesitated for a minute. Who wouldn't the three cards were secret rare, and were being given by Jaden himself. After a minute he had an impulse to choose the middle card. His mind was going crazy, and kept telling him to choose the Spyro card. So he followed his impulse and chose Spyro. He smiled at Spyro, and he could almost see Spyro smile back at him. He slipped Spyro into his deck and looked out into the crowd. They were speechless.
"Brian has chosen, Spyro the dragon" said Jaden into his mike. "Now let's hope Brian does the right thing, and bonds with his newest card." Jaden then put a hand over his mike. "Try not to let the evil control you, and Good Luck" he said in a serious tone.
"Huh" was all Brian had time to say before he was swept off the stage by security. He was halfway down the ramp before people started trying to attack him. Good thing the security was there.
"We will escort you home" said one body guard.
Brian still dazed about what just happened just nodded. They walked about three blocks before there was even more commotion. They passed an electronic shop, with someone running out as fast as possible. The owner ran to the door screaming thief. Before the guards could even react Brian jumped on his bike and rode off.
Amazingly with adrenaline fueling his body to no extent he caught up to the thief. He pulled ahead and screeched to a stop. But he was going too fast and the bicycle flipped and Brian went tumbling. A sweat drop appeared on his forehead, and quickly stood up. "I will not let you steal that...that thing" he said his arms spread out.
"Oh ya and who's going to stop me? A child like you" he said in a rough voice.
"Actually that's a pretty good idea," he said getting his duel disk ready.
The man put on the duel disk he stole, "Alright but don't go cryin' when I destroy you."
"Yesh," Brian said. "I challenge you to a children's card game."
