Chapter 4

The Terror of Xyz Summoning?! Descend now, the Fourth Dragon of the Dragonic Circle!

Author's Notes: Thanks for sticking with me this far! As you can see, the Fourth Dragon is not yet revealed, and it won't be until the last minute. I will however confirm this, it is Rank 8. This is set in the 5D's Timeline, by the way. And there might be a turbo duel later on, if you want one, simply say so in a review. If I get 5 reviews asking for a turbo duel, I will do one.

The raven haired teen sighed as he picked up his bag and got off the helicopter, his parents closely following him. He noticed the apprehensive look on his Mother's face, and the slightly joyous one on his Father's. He noticed a crowd coming already, couldn't he be given ten minutes alone with his parents without someone butting in? He supposed not, seeing as his parents were Yusei and Akiza Fudo, the most famous Dueling Couple on the face of this accurrsed planet. "Here they come..." the teenager spoke, his hand instinctively going to his Deck. "Saburo, don't. They're not coming after you, they're after us." His father said to him in a strict but kindly tone of voice. "How long until they do..." Saburo spoke, his hazelnut eyes filled with anger, his voice having a slight aggressive tone to it. "Saburo, please. I know it's difficult to control them honey, I really do. But you have to try, if you don't, you'll end up like me. And I don't want that..." His mother said, hugging the black haired teenager close, her eyes staring into an almost mirror image of her own, flecks of Yusei's blue eyes appearing in Saburo's predominantly hazelnut colour eyes. "I'm sorry..." He whispered, hugging his Mother back. He let go of her, looking at his Dad, navy blue eyes staring back, a gentle, warm expression in them. "I know it's difficult, moving to a new place. I'm not saying it's going to be easy, but what I am saying is don't let your powers control you, you control them." The black-haired 29 year old said, looking into his son's eyes, which had a mixture of anger and apprehension in them. "Okay..." Saburo said, trying to calm the voice inside his head that constantly urged him to destroy. "Good. If you do really well here, I'll build you your own Duel Runner, and teach you how to Turbo Duel. How does that sound?" Yusei asked, smiling. Saburo smiled in response, nodding. "I'll try my best." He said, his voice unsure if he could keep the promise, but he decided he would try his best, no matter what.

He waved his parents goodbye, who narrowly escaped the crowd of fans wanting autographs. Suddenly they were left with him, on his own. People immediately scrambled out of the way, Saburo's reputation preceding him. He had discovered that he was a Psychic Duelist when he was 6, when he had his first Duel against his Dad. He had summoned Elemental Hero Flame Wingman, and used it to attack Junk Synchron. The next thing he knew, his father was surrounded by flames, screaming, before collapsing to his knees. Akiza rushed over to Yusei and helped him up, his clothes signed. Saburo ran to his room and cried, upset at having hurt his father. Akiza followed and comforted him, explaining that he had the same powers she had. They had a Psychic Limiter built for him, concealed in a locket around his neck. By the time he went to Duel Academy, he was fully aware of his powers and their strength. Unfortunately, the Principal told everyone about them, in an attempt to try and prevent students from setting him off. All it did was give the bullies ammunition, he was called so many names. It had been six months since when one name became one name too many. He took off his Psychic Limiter, took Cyber End Dragon out of it's display case and used it to go on a destructive rampage, smashing up half of Neo Domino City's Duel Academy in the process, before Sector Security finally sedated him. He was prevented from going to the Facility, the Doctors diagnosing a psychotic breakdown after years of bullying. Saburo's mental health was cured somewhat. What therapy couldn't cure was the psychological scarring. 3 years of bullying had scarred themselves onto his mind. The guilt of ripping apart the Academy to fuel his revenge. Thankfully, no-one was killed. But there were a lot of injured. As part of the terms of Saburo not going to prion, he had to go to the Island Duel Academy. His parents protested, but the law was the law.

He entered the Duel Field and effortlessly won the Duel. How could he not, with his ability. People continued to avoid him, he had a room all to himself. And he was happy with that. He pulled out the top card of his Deck and stared and the Xyz Monster. He thought to himself "It's always been you and me, hasn't it? Ever since that dreadful day, you've been with me, sticking together with me through thick and thin. I'll protect you and you'll protect me. Neither of us are accepted. But we aren't alone as long as we have each other..." He heard a loud roar in response, and looked up at his spirit partner. "And that's the way I like it." He replied, gently stroking the dragon's face, his Psychic Powers allowing him to interact with the spirit, the Dragon growled in response, apparently enjoying the physical contact. Saburo heard the lunch bell ring, and he went to the cafeteria, hungry.

The three dragon partners sat down at their usual table, it had been three weeks since Crowler had talked to them in their office. "No luck yet." They all said sighing. Asa went off and brought back some cappucinos. "We can't give up, you heard what Crowler said. We have to find him." Zed said. "I know, but it's been three weeks, and not a clue." Crystal said, annoyed. "We'll find him. I know we will." Asa said, smiling. Before they knew it, it was after class, they were strolling around the campus. They suddenly heard a scream, their marks burning. "You don't think..." Crystal said. "That the Fourth Member..." Zed exclaimed. "Is in trouble? We should go check it out." Asa said, Zed already running to the source of the scream. The two followed him to a clearing, they saw a black-haired teenager standing there, his Duel DIsk deactivated, his right arm glowing, his opponent unconscious. "Oh my god... That guy's unconscious... What the hell happened?" Crystal asked. "Nevermind that, look!" Zed said, pointing to the teenager, a small patch on his arm glowing purple. He turned and faced the three of them. "What the hell do you guys want?" He said curtly, his brown eyes glaring. "Your arm... It's glowing..." Crystal said. "So are yours. Snap." Saburo said, his voice dripping in sarcasm. "I recognize you... You're Saburo Fudo!" Asa exclaimed. "Oh great, another person who hates me, like that prat over there." Saburo replied, pointing to the unconscious teenager. "What did you do to him!" Crystal asked, worried. "He decided to bully me aboutmy past, so I showed him what happens when you anger a Psychic Duelist." Saburo said, venom in his voice. "Saburo, we aren't here to hurt you. We believe you a part of a group called the Dragonic Circle." Zed said calmly, trying to diffuse the situation. "Sorry, but it's my parents that deal with all that mystical fate stuff, not me." Saburo replied. "Show me your right arm." Zed said, pointing at his right arm. Saburo obliged, there was a Dragon's head on it, the Mark was glowing purple. "I thought so. You're one of us." Asa said, the three of them showing their marks. "I don't care. I don't want anything to do with you lot. I do things alone, I don't need any of you in my life." Saburo replied, rolling his sleeve back down. "Saburo, we're all connected. By our Dragons, I am partnered with Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Asa is partnered with Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Crystal is paired with Rainbow Dragon. What Dragon are you partnered with?" Zed asked. "It's none of your business. I said, I do things alone." Saburo replied curtly, he began to walk off. Asa suddenly pulled a cord out of his Duel Disk, it had a cuff on it, he threw it, the cuff attached itself to Saburo's Duel Disk. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! LET ME GO!" Saburo shouted, now angry. "No! You're going to Duel me, and if I win, you are going to help us and join the Dragonic Circle, even if I have to tie you up and carry you everywhere!" Asa shouted, his blue eyes blazing. "Very well. If I win, I get to go free." Saburo replied. They both activated their Duel Disks.

"DUEL!"

"I'll go first!" Saburo shouted, drawing six cards. "I summon Heliosphere, the Supreme Shield Dragon in Attack Mode!" (Level 4, Light Attribute, Dragon-Type, 0 ATK 1900 DEF) "I end my turn!" He shouted.

"It's my turn, I draw!" Asa said, drawing one card. "I activate the spell card, Ancient Rules! I can Special Summon one Level 7 or Higher Normal Monster from my Hand. I Special Summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon in Defense Mode!" Asa shouted. (Level 8, Light Attribute, Dragon-Type, 3000 ATK 2500 DEF) "Why did he do that?" Crystal asked, confused. "Heliosphere prevents your opponent from attacking if it is the only card on your side of the field and if your opponent has 4 or less cards in his Hand. Asa couldn't attack anyway, so by playing it in Defense, if Saburo summons a stronger monster, he won't take damage." Zed replied. "I now summon White Stone of Legend in Attack Mode!" (Level 1, Light Attribute, Dragon-Type, 300 ATK 250 DEF) "I now set a card and end my turn."

"I draw." Saburo said calmly, smiling. "I activate the magic card, Level Cross! By discarding one card, I can double the Level of a Level 4 or lower Monster I control! I discard Galaxy Dragon to double Heliosphere's Level to 8!" (Heliosphere Level 4 - 8) "I now activate the effect of Parsec, the Interstellar Dragon from my Hand! If I control a Level 8 Monster, I can Normal Summon this card without Tribute!" (Level 8, Light Attribute, Dragon-Type, 800 ATK 800 DEF) "What are you schemeing!" Asa shouted, slightly unnerved by Saburo's odd tactics. "You all wanted to see my Dragon, well here he comes! I Overlay my Level 8 Parsec and Heliosphere! With these two monsters I build the Overlay Network! Xyz Summon! Roar throughout the entire universe. Revive, from the source of all galaxies, that flows from far back in time! Manifest yourself, and lead me to victory! Number 107! Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon!" (Rank 8, Light Attribute, Dragon-Type, 3000 ATK 2500 DEF) The Galaxy that the two streams of light that were originally Heliosphere and PArsec Expolded, and from within it a massive purple dragon descended, it looked almost machine like, it's wings were apparently made up of metal with lilac energy beams inbetween it's "feathers", it had 5 mechanical tails extending from the back, it's eyes were feircely yellow, the number 107 was on the right side of it's head in blue, wirtten in an odd font. Galaxy-Eyes and Blue-Eyes instantly began roaring loudly, a clear bond of some sort between the two dragons evident, Red-Eyes and Rainbow appears in Spirit Form next to Zed and Crystal respectively, they begin roaring with Galaxy-Eyes and Blue-Eyes, they eventually stopped. "Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon's Monster Effect activates! Once per Turn, at the start of a Battle Phase, I can detach one Overlay Unit, it negates the effects of all other Monsters, and if an effect activates during the Battle Phase, Tachyon Dragon gains 1000 ATK, and it can attack once more! Go, Galaxy-Eyes, attack White Stone of Legend! Tachyon Spiral of Annihilation!" Galaxy-Eyes roared, firing a large purple beam at the small egg, disintergrating it. (Asa 4000 - 1300 LP) "AHHHHHHH!" Asa screamed as the beam hit him, Saburo's Psychic Powers in use. "W-White Stone of Legend's effect activates in the Grave... I can add... A Blue-Eyes to my Hand from my Deck..." Asa does so, smoke coming off his clothes. "Galaxy-Eyes's effect activates, since an effect activated this Battle Phase, it gains 1000 ATK and it can attack again! Tachyon Transmigration!" The large dragon roars, a gold orb of light rotating around it's abdomen, the entire field is enveloped in a gold and multicoiloured glow, it eventually stops. (No. 107 3000 - 4000 ATK) "Tachyon Dragon attacks Blue-Eyes! Tachyon Spiral of Annihilation!" The Dragon fires another purple energy blast from it's mouth, destroying Blue-Eyes, throwing Asa back more. "I end my turn."

"I draw!" Asa shouted, panting, his body racked with pain as he drew. "I summon Blue-Eyes Maiden!" (Level 1, Light Attribute, Spellcaster-Type, 0 ATK 0 DEF) "I end my turn." Asa thought to himself "This'll stop you. If you target Maiden with an attack, it'll Special Summon a Blue-Eyes White Dragon from my Deck. then I'll crush your Tachyon Dragon!"

"I draw." Saburo spoke, drawing a card. "It seems that either your surrendering in disguise, or you have forgotten about my Tachyon Dragon's effect." Saburo said, smiling. "Oh god..." Asa said, realizing his fatal mistake. "Tachyon Dragon attacks Blue-Eyes Maiden! At this instance, I activate Galaxy-Eyes's effect! Once per Turn, I can detach an Overlay Unit, all other effects on the field are negated, and if an effect activates during this Battle Phase other than this one, Galaxy-Eyes gains 1000 ATK and it can attack again! Go, Tachyon Dragon! Destroy Blue-Eyes Maiden! Tachyon Spiral of Annihilation!" The large purple dragon consumed it's final Overlay Unit and fired a purple beam at the small girl, destroying her. (Asa 1300 - 0 LP)

"You won... We'll leave you alone now." Asa said quietly detaching the Duel rope, the three turned to leave. "Wait... I want to stay with you guys. You don't hate me for my Psychic Powers, like everyone else..." Saburo said, catching up to them. "You really want to stay?" Zed asked confused."Yes." Saburo replied, nodding his head. "We're glad you're with us." Crystal said, as the four walked back to the dormitories, not noticing a man in a trenchcoat and hat watching them from the within the shade of the trees.

Author Notes: So there you go, the final member revealed! I hope you are all okay with my choices. Also, I don't hate Asa, he'll be winning plenty of Duels later on, I assure you guys. The team is together, but the trials and tribulations are only just beginning!
