Yusei won! I was so happy that I started to cry.
"A long time ago, a friend of mine told me that I couldn't win a duel with just monsters. He said all three card types must come together for a win. And the thing that joins them is right here." Yusei put his fist to his chest. "He didn't tell me what it was. But I know. It's the soul of a duelist who believes in the heart of the cards!"
"Well you sure told me good... But don't think this is over! I'll win next time." Uryu started stalking away, and his men let me go. As soon as I was free I ran to Yusei and gave him a big hug.
"WAAAAAAAAAAH! Thank you! Thank you so much, Yusei!" Yusei pat my head.
"Bark!" Rocky popped out of my pocket.
"Thank you, Yusei! I thought... I almost thought you were going to leave me!"
"Aren't we friends? I wouldn't leave you behind."
"Good luck!"
"You can do it!"
"Hurry up!"
Everyone gave us their well-wishes. I was sitting on Yusei's D-Wheel as he also got on.
"Wait!" Rally called. "Take this for luck! One shot booster!" Rally handed Yusei a card.
"It's your favorite, right?" Yusei queried."Yeah, but it's okay. Hopefully this will get you and Pinoko through the pipelines!"
"At least I've got a helmet this time. Not like I'm scared or anything."
"You're trembling," Yusei notified me.
"OKAY SO I'M SCARED! We're going to ride through the whole pipeline in just three minutes at 5,000 mph and YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE SEAT BELTS! WHAT IF WE CRASH?!"
"I won't crash."
"Do your best!"
I wrapped both arms around Yusei's waist and squeezed. Rocky popped out of my pocket and barked.
"Bye bye, Rocky!"
The D-Wheel started up and we set off at rocket speed.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"Aroooooooo!"
"Yusei! Do your best!"
Yusei raced down the block. A Security speaker said, "Warning- Turn back now or you will be prosecuted." Yusei ignored it but the same Security guard as before came riding up next to us and slammed into us on the D-Wheel!
"So we meet again, scum!" He said. "Punks like you don't belong here. Get lost!" We kept going.
"Yusei! We're headed straight for a dead end!" We were rapidly approaching a wall of iron bars. Yusei jumped over them somehow.
"AAAAAAAAAHHH!"
Security was still hot on our tail. He got closer, then used a speed world spell.
"How's that? This thing is such a wonder that it can force you into a duel! I don't know where you're going, but you'll have to go through me!"
"Duel!"
Yusei won with only 50 life points to spare, but it was too late!
"Yusei! The hatch is closing! We won't make it!"
Yusei dodged all the trash that came flying at us and even rode on the ceiling.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH REMEMBER HOW THERE ARE NO SEAT BELTS?!"
Then Yusei breaks hard and slides right under the maintenance door. I was so relieved!
"We did it!"
"We?"
"Well. hey, I was cheering you on, wasn't I?"
"If by cheering me on you mean screaming about how I was going to lose and we'd both go to the facility, then yes."
"What can I say? I'm a pessimist at heart."
We were just kidding around, but then the air turned serious. Yusei stopped the bike and took off his helmet.
"Jack..."
"It's been a while, Yusei."
The man who was in that duel from before was standing on a raised highway. I didn't know Yusei knew this "King" guy. I didn't think I should get involved, since it seemed personal.
"As soon as I saw this moon, I had a feeling you'd show. How many years has it been?"
"Two."
"Two years, huh? You've built a nice D-Wheel there. That's not surprising."
"You did ride off with the one I built before, after all."
"A king never lets a chance pass him by."
"Where is it now?"
"It's obviously already broken."
Yusei's fist clenched. I put a gentle hand on his back. I wanted to let him know I'd support him without getting involved in matters that have nothing to do with me. It's none of my business, but I'll comfort him if he asks for it.
"And my card?"
"You mean the Stardust Dragon?" Jack holds up the card.
"That was a part of our dreams."
"Our?"
"And all our friends in Satellite's dreams."
"Are you still prattling on about that childish nonsense? Now that I'm king, I don't need it. You can have it back."
Jack threw the card at Yusei who stared at the card.
"What's wrong? Put it in your deck."
Yusei threw it back and got off the D-Wheel.
"Then I'll get it back from you in a duel. I bet you had the same idea."
"Suit yourself. I have a feeling this will be a fun ride."
Yusei got back on the D-Wheel and followed Jack to the stadium.
I'm stopping right here because that's all I have written! I'll go write some more right now and hopefully I'll be finished with the Facility arc soon and get it typed up tonight. No promises though! You may have to wait until tomorrow. Please review! Thanks for reading, as always! I love you, my precious readers!
