LoyalFire: Hello brochachos!

Dawn: You've been gone for a while.

Evan: Yeah, it's gotten boring trying to figure out what's gonna happen.

LoyalFire: Well excuse me for having a life! *stomps to the computer*

Dawn: Anyway, LoyalFire doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Just me, Evan, and our cards.


Dawn's POV

After that duel, Evan, Yusei, and I were released. Tanner asked, "So, what are you guys gonna do now? You're free to go."

"We need to get our runners back," said Evan.

"Than this should help. I heard some guards talkin' about how your rides were in the Impound Center." said Tanner. He gave Yusei his card, Giant Ushi Oni. "Take this to a store called Bootleg, order some milk, and ask for Blister. He'll help you out."

"Thanks Tanner," I said.


We walked out of the Facility and turned the corner to get to Bootleg.

"I'll stay out here." said Evan.

"Uh…" I said, "Ok."

Yusei and I walked in and sat at the counter.

The guy at the couter turned around and said, "This place isn't for kids, so get your girlfriend and get out."

"We're looking for Blister." I said as Yusei pulled out the card.

"Are those suits after Blister too?" he asked and then motioned behind us. We glanced behind us. There two men in suits with dark sunglasses on. "You don't find Blister," he said, "Blister finds you."

"In that case, we'll have some milk." said Yusei.

"Here you go." We chugged the milk and left. I think the guys in the suits followed us at a distance.

"Thanks." I said.

We walked out into the street and then we heard a duel runner. The person in the runner jumped off the building and then stopped. His runner also had a sidecar.

"Looking for me?" he asked.

Yusei got in the sidecar, and Evan and I got on the back of his runner. "Are you Blister?" I asked.

"In the flesh." Then he drove away. He shone a light on my mark and then made me shine it on Evan's, and Evan shined it on Yusei's. At the same time, Blister said, "Hold still. This bad boy has ions that are jamming your signals. We can't have those suits following us."

We got to his hideout, and there were helicopters circling the area. "Security usually saves the coptors for the big time offenders. But you three seem harmless enough. You guys must be here for the official Blister Hookup. So, what's the deal? You guys need a new identity?"

"Actually," I said.

"We need help getting into the Impound Center." Evan finished.

"They have our runners there." said Yusei.

"You're kidding, right?" said Blister.

"Tanner said you could help us." I said.

"Was he right or wrong?" said Evan.

"He's right." said Blister.


"Alright Mr., Ms., and Mr. Adams." said Blister, "Your maintinence uniforms are all set and I've got your ID cards. Now I just need to hack into the city system…" Then, he started humming. Evan started looking around and found something and picked it up.

"And we're done," said Blister, "Yusei, Evan, and Dawn Adams you are officially employees of the Neo Domino Security Impound Center. Each section requires a specific code, so let me hop onto the mainframe and see where they're keeping your rides and get the codes you'll need. When did they take 'em?"

"A couple of weeks ago." said Yusei.

"All right then, I'll have to break the encription on the security mainframe."

Evan picked up the card that was next to the picture frame. I walked up to him. "You shouldn't snoop around like that." I whispered. Evan jumped at the sound of my voice. "Dammit Dawn," whispered Evan. "Make some noise when you move! Sorry about my language."

The only reply he got from me was an eyeroll.

"Boo-yah!" said Blister, "I'm in. Just gotta narrow the search down to single ride duel runners confiscated over the past several weeks, run that against a list of other variables, and…Bingo! Vault 64-B, top floor. Now to snag the passcodes you'll need to get in. This shouldn't be too hard."

"Hey Blister," said Evan. Oh boy, I thought. "Did you use to be a duelist?" Blister and Yusei both looked over. "Wha-what are you doing snoopin' around in here? Put that picture back!"

"Looks like you were taking names in the big leagues." said Yusei.

"Nah," said Blister, "I was never big leagues, that's for sure. Me and my partner dueled in the semi-pro league for a bit. But that was a different life. It was a long time ago. Put the picture down and stop snoopin' around. We need to focus." Evan put it down.

"Talk to me." said Yusei.

"Got the passcode for 64-B."

"Is that all we'll need?" I asked.

"That, the ID cards, your uniforms, and a whole lotta luck. The security droids are on a random program, so I can't help you there."

"We'll risk it, plus, our friends need it." said Evan.

"You're taking this huge risk for some friends?!" asked Blister.

"Yeah!" I yelled, "Friends are always there to help you out, so we have to help friends whenever we can!" There was complete silence.

"So was that your duel partner in the picture?" asked Evan.

"Man…" said Blister, slightly irritated, "You don't know how to let something go, do you?"

"What was his name?"

"His name was Arrow. But that's the only thing I'm telling you. We're not here to get to know each other, got it?"


The next day at night, we went to the Impound Center. After everyone left, we each came out of a separate bathroom in our janitor uniforms. We each had planned to meet at the top, and that none of us should go in alone, since we were at different places in the center. To make sure that none of us would go in alone, we each carried part of the code to get in and open the door. I had the first part, Yusei had the second part, and Evan had the third part of the code. We also had to get our decks solo.

I walked around, careful to avoid the security droids. Blister was right about these things, I thought. I hope Yusei and Evan aren't having this much trouble. I reached the vault where my deck was and it took me a few minutes to find where mine was. I finally found it, after what felt like forever and reached the top and saw Yusei already there. A few seconds later, Evan showed up.

I entered my part of the code, then Yusei, and then Evan. Yusei swiped his ID card, because he was the first one to get up here. The door opened, and we walked in. I held a GPS type device that led us to our runners.

"How close are they?" whispered Evan.

"They should be right around," I took a few more steps, "Here."

Right after I stopped, Sector Security lights shined on us. "I'm starting to thing you guys like me," said Officer Trudge, "Why else would you go out of your way to make sure we meet like this?" Trudge now had a scar. I guess it was from the sewage pipe. Yusei told us that he got out of there in the nick of time, which means Trudge got run over by trash.

We ignored him and climbed into the tall crate where our duel runners were. "Don't even try," Trudge said, "Those duel runners are offline. So why don't you three come back out so we can ship you back off to the Facility."

"Offline? Please." I said.

Evan revved his engine. "Like our duel runners would be offline."

Then, Yusei, Evan, and I drove though the crate, ignoring Trudge.

"I'm gonna pull up the building schematics to find a way out of here." said Yusei, "Then, I'll send it to you guys."

"'Kay!" I said.

"Thanks Yusei!" said Evan. Then, Trudge ran into Yusei. This is the pipeline all over again! Is this guy ever gonna give up?

"I found the schematics," said Yusei, with a little difficulty, "Sending them to you now."

"Got it." Evan and I said at the same time.

"Ok officer," said Yusei.

"No," I interrupted, "I'll duel Trudge."

"But-"

"No buts!" I said.

"…Fine." said Yusei.

I turned my attention to Officer Trudge. "Now, let's duel!"


LoyalFire: And that's the cliffhanger!

Dawn: Wow.

Yusei: Why didn't you let me duel?

LoyalFire: 'Cause I'm gonna show off Dawn deck in the next chapter.

Yusei: ...

Evan: I can't wait to see this.

LoyalFire: Anyway, see ya later! :D
