Yusei had been driving for hours. All he could see for miles was sand and bare ground. But that didn't matter to the raven. Finally, his destination came into view. As he approached the sign of the town, the young teen slowed to a stop. Then, he got off his vehicle and pushed it the rest of the way. As he entered the town, a group of men blocked his path. From the duel disks on their arms, Yusei could tell they were duelists.

"Hey, stranger. This is our town. So, beat it 'til you get whopped," one of them said as he held up his arm and activated his disk. Before the raven could react, a voice intervened.

"Is that anyway to treat a guest?"

The boys turned to see a woman with brown hair and brown eyes was the one who spoke up. She was holding flowers as she approached the group. Handing the flowers to one of the men, she walked up to Yusei and said, "I apologize for them. This town is very protective of its citizens."

"I see," the young man replied. She told the men that their business was done and they should move along. Recluently, the men left.

Turning back to the teen, "I am Barbara. I welcome you to Crash Town."

The raven smiled as he thanked the woman. "Now, may I help you with anything?"

"Yes," Yusei answered as he pulled out a slip of paper and handed it to Barbara. "I'm looking for someone. I had called him beforehand from this address but he told me I was better off forgetting him. I was hoping to talk some sense into him if I came here in person."

Barbara nodded then motioned for the boy to follow her. "Come with me. I'll show you the way." The two began to walk but it didn't take long to get to their destination. Once there, the younger thanked Barbara for her help then made his way into the saloon.

As he walked in, he looked around. The saloon's design was nothing new. It was a very basic set up but the raven wasn't interested in the building. He turned his attention to the people in the building. There were about 20 people scattered around the place so Yusei scanned each of their faces until he found the one he was looking for. The man was sitting off to the side by the window staring off into space.

"Kalin," he called out which caught the bluenette's attention.

He turned and gasped in surprise, Yusei?"
