disclaimer: don't own yugioh


A few days went by after that affair with Sector Security. Yusei Fudo and Jason Hutchins are riding through the subway tunnel preparing for tonight's trip. But unlike Jason, who's occupied on the track, Yusei was lost in thought: 'You beat me once Jack, but I learned my lesson.'

(Flashback)

One day, on the ruined streets of the Satallite, Yusei was in a duel with one of his best friends: Jack Atlas. Rally, Nervin, Tank and Blitz were there to cheer on Yusei. Yusei was behind with just his Junk Warrior on the field, with Jack using Mad Archfiend with one card set.

"You'll never win this duel, Yusei!"

"You sure are sure of yourself!"

"Just sure..." Jack smirked, "...that I'm gonna beat you! Yusei, bring it on!"

"You got it, Jack! Junk Warrior, send him to the scrap heap!" But as Junk Warrior raises his gauntleted fist, he was ensnared by a swarm of omen-inducing chains. "What's that?!"

"It's my trap..." Jack reveals his set card, "...Shadow Spell! And with it, I'm gonna pun an end to you unbeaten streak, Yusei! Mad Archfiend, attack!" After crunching on a skull, Mad Archfiend's stomach spat out the shards, destroying Junk Warrior and taking the rest of Yusei's life points. Yusei was devastated.

"How did I let that happen?!" Yusei fell to the ground and punched it.

Not even Rally can believe it. he just experienced Yusei's first defeat. "Did he... just lose?"

"He did. And do you know why our friend just lost?" Jack walked over to his fallen rival, "Because his deck has no balance. And without balance, one cannot be a complete duelist. But you know that already, don't you, Yusei?


Old Domino City... Now a run-down junk town known as the Satellite.

Without a trace of memory, Jason Issac Hutchins awakens in the back of a ghetto alleyway. This slum is home to bums and criminals who, exiled from the city, bear an inscription called a 'marker' on their faces. It is there he notices a duel disk attached to his left arm, indicating that he is, in fact a duelist! In days ahead, what kind of destiny awaits him on...

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's

Stardust Accelerator

Ride 6:

Bug Trap


Meanwhile...

Speaking of whom, high above the populate city of New Domino, who is looking through his window, on the very top of the highest building in a very large penthouse. is none other that Jack Atlas himself. 'Ah, now this is the view I was always meant to have, even if I did have to double-cross a few friends to get it,' he said in thought, 'Hmph, and to think that it was only a few years ago that I was dwelling amongst the losers and garbage of The Satallite. I'm glad that nightmare was over.' he take a look at the card he was holding in his right hand. 'Stardust Dragon; I wonder if Yusei still misses you?'

"Quite the view, isn't, Jack?" On the other side of the room, enters a man wearing a grey business suit, with a bird imprinted on the inner shirt. He has green-grey eyes and silver hair tied in a ponytail. His name is Rex Goodwin. "Still thinking about your days in The Satallite?"

"I'm done thinking about that dump, Goodwin." Jack scowls.

"That's good Jack. Because dwelling in the past may sometimes cost you your future, and we worked too hard to let that happen. Now shouldn't you be focusing on you match this evening..."

But before he can finish, Atlas tosses his card at his deck that was lying on a table a few feet from him, fitting perfectly in the center. "I'm plenty focused, Goodwin," Jack answered, "You don't have to worry about me dwelling in the past. Cause' if I had my way, The Satallite would've been destroyed years ago."

"I understand how you feel. But The Satallite plays a valuable role in our society. Everyone has been given a role in life. Those from The Satallite exist so that the chosen may prosper. They keep the city functioning by recycling what the chosen discard. Without The Satallite, New Domino City could not exist. Glamorous a role, it is not, but a necessary one for everyone's survival. But you know that already, don't you, Jack? How silly of me to give a history lesson to someone who experienced it first hand. Now your memories of that place where they belong; It's time for you to make new ones."

"You're right," But Jack looks at the strange markings on his right arm, which resembles a pair of wings. "But what if my past comes looking for me?"

Meanwhile...

Back at The Satallite, Yusei and Jason are still testing out their runners at the subway tunnel. As they near the subway station, they can see Rally holding out a stopwatch, so he can record the timings on their laps. When they reached their checkpoint, they skied to a halt.

"Guys, that's you best time yet!" Rally rushed over to the two D-Wheelers. "You think they're gonna be fast enough to get you both to New Domino City?"

"Well, they better be," Jason answered.

"I just know it's gonna work!"

"I hope you're right," Yusei said, "Time us again." And just like that, the revved once again across the tunnel.

Meanwhile...back at New Domino...

"Jack, you are a part of New Domino City now, and the only link you have to The Satallite is Yusei Fudo; and you can rest assure, that we're taking every precaution to keep that link buried."

Later...at nightfall...

The scene changes to the Satallite Recycle Center. There, we enter Tank, Nervin and Blitz.

"OK, Nervin, your turn."

"I'm thinking a cheeseburger with bacon and extra onion rings!"

"Whoa, don't forget the french fries and an extra-thick milkshake!"

"Ha-ha, good one!"

"Or lemonade!"

"Mmm, but nothing beats dipping hot french fries into a cold chocolate shake. It really brings out the flavor! Oh, I can dream about it! So guy, you think we'll ever taste a real cheeseburg--who-oha" But before Tank can finish his sentence, he fell onto the floor, flat on his face.

"Tank! What happened?!" Dropping their stuff on the spot, Blitz and Nervin rushed to helped thier fallen friend.

"Ugh...I fell."

"On the contrary; It's actually called 'Tripped'." The source of Tank's falling came from an outstretched leg, which came from a young man with blue hair, wearing a black jean jacket with an old necklace around his neck. The gut, whose name is Lenny, was companied by two other cohorts. One si a little more big-boned than Tank is, but other than that, he has brown hair and shades on. The other one has black hair in a weird hairdo. He has his right hand signaled out the letter L (L, for loser, I think).

"Feh, it looks like he scuffed up your shoe really bad. Whadaya think he should do about it?"

The guy with the "L" only responded by cackling.

"How bout' he buys me a new pair of kicks and we call it even?" Lenny insisted, "I wear a size: 11."

"You'll get nothing, ya got that?" Blitz complained, "Unless you want a bruise to match that mark on your face. It'd be an improvement."

"Grr, I'll show you an improvement!" Blitz biggest mistake was ticking off Lenny, especially when he was reminded of the criminal mark on his right cheek. And to prove his point, Lenny took a handful of Blitz's collar so he wouldn't get away; Blitz was regretting his word now.

"Uh, guy, a little help?!" But it was too late for Blitz when Lenny...

POW!!!

Later...

Back at the subway, Rally was busy tending his friends wounds, who just returned after that beating from the "Blue-Haired Bully". And Rally was putting the finishing touches on Blitz's injuries. "There, all better."

"Oh, really? Then can you please explain to me why it still hurts so much? I thought you knew what you were doing, Rally!" and just like before, he regretted what he just said. "Yeah, and I guess I did too when I stood up against that bully. Boy was I wrong; I mean, they just ran us over!"

"I know. I didn't even get a chance to get in the fetal position," Nervin said.

"And now I gotta buy some new shoes for that guy," Tank slunked.

"C'mon, guys, lighten up!" Rally said, ant looked towards the two D-wheelers. "Yusei and Jason just maxed out thier duel runners!"

"Yeah, like how maxed out?" Blitz asked.

"Enough to get the heck out of here," Jason answered.

"You should've seen them and thier runners speeding through the tunnels! It was like 'vroom!', then 'whish!', then 'shroom!'" Rally looked back at Jason and Yusei. "So are you guys gonna go for it tonight? You're gonna try and make it to Domino City?"

Yusei nodded.

"Uh, does anyone besides me have a bad feeling about all this?" Blitz asked.

"I do," Nervin answered sarcastically, "But that's not really saying much, because I have a bad feeling about everything."

"Yeah," Yusei said, "But don't worry, because I got it all planned out...I think."

Meanwhile, at The Satallite's Sector Security office...

"Hey, Unc', I know you're less than happy about those sattalites getting away, but..." From within the interiors of the Security Enforcer office, enters Security Officer Justine Altman, who is awaiting her next assignment, along with her partner, Officer Tetsu Trudge, either person holding a duel monsters deck in her/his hand. "is this new pursuit deck really neccesary? Cause I don't need any help chasing that satallite!"

"First off, despite me being your uncle, Officer Altman, while you're on duty you will address me as 'Captain'," Sitting from behind his desk, Justine's uncle, or rather, her 'Captain', was an old man with a flat-top of grey hair and a matching moustache. "And as for your ability to hold you own, I beg to differ; you see Trudge beside you?" Both the captain and Justine took a glance at said person. "If I had my way, I'd have him handing out parking tickets until he retires. These special pursuit decks would've gone to someone who goes by the book; but apparantly Mr. Jack Atlas thinks he deserves a second chance. And when Jack Atlas says 'do something', I do it."

"Well, I guess we couldn't blame him," Justine said with a smug look on her face, "I mean, he would've followed the rulebook if he knew he'd get bested by some satallite--"

"You're the one to talk, Altman!" Trudge exclaimed, "You got wasted the same way! But I guess it's what's to be expected from a rookie!"

"Look me dead in the eye ane say it to my face, Bushy-Brow--!!"

"That's enough out of both of you!" Captain shouted, "Trudge is right, Altman; you would've followed the rules yourself and tried to apprehend that satallite, but instead you insisted on challenging him and you lost. That's how he got away."

Justine looked down and bit her lip.

"Now i'm giving you one chance to redeem yourself, but after that, i'm assigning you to a different duty, and not for your benefit. Is that understood?"

"Yes, Captain." Justine said plainly.

"So what are my orders?" Trudge asks.

"Find Yusei and his duel runner and bring them in." Captain instructed. "There are some very powerful people who want him off the streets permanently."

"Understood, Captain," Trudge bowed.

"And just you remember: there are no third chances with Mr. Atlas. Am I making myself perfectly clear, Officer Trudge?"

"Yes, sir. He may have caught me off guard in our last duel but next time, I'll be ready," Trudge takes another look at his new cards. "And will he ever be surprised." He bowed again and left with Justine. "Thank you sir," he said, "You won't be dissapointed. When you lock onto the chip's homing signal, let me know."

Meanwhile...

"So what's this plan you think 'might' work, Yusei," Tank asked.

"Oh, it's gonna work, Tank!"

"Well, I hope you're right, Rally," Yusei said, "Cause' if everything falls into place, Stardust Dragon will be mine again, and we'll all be one step closer to leaving the Satallite."

"Yuse, are you sure that card's worth the risk?" Blitz asked, "I mean, do you really think that card's gonna make a difference?"

"Of corse it will." Tank said, "Don't you remember the feeling you had when you first saw it in action? Cause I'll never forget it!"

"Wait, you know what a 'Stardust Dragon' looks like?"

"You must've been out for a long time. It was two years ago, before we met you." Blitz said, "Stardust is a white dragon which emits tiny particles of light, at least that was what I remembered. If it wasn't for Jack stealing it and Yusei's first runner, we'd be out of the Satallite right now."

Jason looked at Yusei's runner, "You mean this isn't his only runner?"

"Nope," Tank said, "His first runner was faster and way more powerful!"

(Flashback)

Tank: Seeing that duel runner Yusei built from spare parts from the Recycling Center was amazing! And when Yuse started it up and showed us what it can do, it was like a whole new world opened up.

Nervin: Yeah, and then, when he first summoned his Stardust Dragon, I couldn't believe my eyes, or ears! I mean, you were screaming at the top of your lungs, Blitz.

Blitz: That's right. I lost my voice for a week after all that hollering. Too bad Jack took away our dreams.

(End flashback)

"Well, Yusei's about to get them back," Rally said, "Cause' with this new runner, Jack doesn't stand a chance!"

"Yeah!" Tank exclaimed, "What are we waiting for!?"

"Midnight, Tonight," Yusei said.

"Huh? Why?" Nervin asked, "What's at midnight?"

"The tiniest of opportunities." Yusei taps on some laptop keys and a simulation started playing. "Check this out, guys: See, the only way between The Satallite and New Domino City is this sewer pipeline here. Problem is, they flood it with trash 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. But once a month at midnight, they shut the syetem down to check the compressor pumps," he then points to a flashing object on the screen, "Then a maintenance hatch is automatically opened, and that's when Jason and I will get our chance to make it through."

"A sewer?" Nervin facefaulted, "That sounds... a bit unhigenic. The odors and fumes alone..."

"Remind us of you!"

(Cackling)

"Yeah, you stink like the garbage you recycle."

Yusei and Co. look back to see Lenny and his two co-horts entering the subway to thier shack. "How's the healing going?" he said as his flunkies laughed at his joke.

But Yusei just stared them down, unphased by thier taunts.

"Hey, you with the hair!" the sheded one growled at Yusei, "You think you're a tough guy?! Cause' I'll show you what tough is!" The guy with the finger just cackled.

That's a pretty impressive runner you got there." Lenny said as he looked at Yusei's duel runner and cracked his knuckles. "How much do you want for it?"

"The runner's not for sale, so beat it." Blitz averted.

"Well, if it's not for sale, how bout' you give it to me instead of the shoes we're here to collect?"

"That sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me." Shades Guy said as Finger Guy cackled.

"Or would you perfer I go topside and tell Sector Security that you're hiding a illegal duel runner down here?"

"Why don't we duel for it." Lenny looked towards Yusei, who said those very words.

"Huph, duel me, you might as well just hand it to me now, especially if you duel like your buddys here fight."

Jason walked besides Yusei, "Here's the stakes: If you win, yu can keep both our runners, as well as my dueling deck," Jason held out his cards, "But if Yusei wins, then you leave our subway there and then."

"Heh, two runners for the price of one? I like those odds."Lenny said as Shades Guy donned him his duel disk. "So, are you up for it?"

"Don't duel him, Yusei," Blitz averted.

"He's just a bully," Nervin added.

And bullies never learn," Yusei removes his deck from his wrist, placed the in a dack-holder on Yusei's bottom side, and replaces it with the one on his opposite side. "...unless you stand up to them."

"but what if you loose to him, Yuse?!" Blitz exclaims.

Yusei pressed a button on his runner and the computer voice activated: "Disengaging duel disk." the runner extracted the duel disk from itself as Yusei connected the disk to his left wrist. "We'll be fine, Blitz."

"Hmph, I think I'll change the color," Lenny said, imagining what to do whit the cycles he'd win.

"Don't do it, Yuse, please!" Tank prayed, "This runner's the key to our...our--"

"--Future," Yusei finished, "That's why I have to do this."

"Well your future's coming with me, so you better start making new plans for tomorrow." And with that, Lenny spat out a smug laugh, along with Shade's guy and Finger Guy. Seconds later, everyone got out of the way so Yusei and Lenny can battle. Yusei stared Lenny down while the later let out a smirk, untill...

"Let's Duel!"

Yusei: 4000

Lenny: 4000

"Your move," Yusei said.

"I can't wait to get my hands on those runners. Here goes!" Lenny drew, "I summon (1)Chainsaw Insect (2400/0) in attack mode!" A giant ant with giant chainsaw-like jaws appeared in front of him. Everyone jumped at how large it is.

"Whoa!" Tank exclaimed, "I've see big bugs down here, but nothing that big!"

"It is quite the arthropod, isn't it?" Nervin said.

"Yes it is!" Lenny slaps another card onto his disk. "And next i'm playing te spell: Retribution of the Antlion!" A giant sinkhole of sand started to form. I always knew there were bugs down here in these tunnels, but you gotta trust me when I say that you guys have'nt seen anything yet; cause' when this card's on the the field, the monster's controller gets hit with 800 points of damage when it's destroyed!"

"Oh, no," Tank said, "Yuse don't like bugs!"

"Yeah, ever since that roach nested in his ear, he freezes up if you just say the word 'Insect'." Nervin added, "I sure hope that doesn't throw him off his game."

"Don't worry, Nervin," Jason said, "I'll take more that entonophobia to distract him."

"C'mon, Yuse," Blitz shouted, "You can do this!"

"Scared of creepy crawlies, huh?" Lenny just heard thier little chat, "Hmph, well then this duel... will have you coming face-to face with your worst fears."

"You got him shaking in his boots, Boss!" Shades called out as Finger cackled.

"Not for long, though," Yusei drew, "Cause' i'm summoning my (2)Shield Warrior (800/1600) in defense mode!" A spearman with a giant shield knelt in a blue aura. "And next I place one card face-down." A reverse card appears behind Shield Warrior.

"Ha, you really are afraid!" Lenny abused, "Looks like you forgot how to attack!"

"I bet he don't even finish the duel!" Shades added as Finger cackled.

"Well ther's onle one way to find out," Lenny drew, "I summon (3)Pinch Hopper 1000/1200), in attack mode!" A giant green grasshopper appeared. "I see the fear in your eyes and it's only gonna get worse, cause' by sending a card to my graveyard, I can play Insect Costume," Lenny shot out the spell to show to his opponent, "And add a scarrier insect to my hand!" Shades cheered as Finger cackled as Lenny searched his deck for and insect monster, "This next move.." he said, "You should enjoy, cause now I have to destroy my Pinch Hopper."

"But if he destroys a monster..." Tank protested.

"Then won't his life points take a hit?" Jason finished.

As Hoppervanished, the sinkhole glowed and unleashed a ray of yellow light, which targeted straight for Lenny, taking out 800 of his life points.

Yusei: 4000

Lenny: 3200

"What just happened?!" Lenny exclaimed, "Did I--did I just attack myself?!"

Blitz facepalmed and facefaulted, "I think Bug-Boy forgot that he got his Antlion spell on the field."

"Huh?" Lenny looked at his disk and rubbed the back of his head, "Oh, yeah, that was all part of my plan. Cause' you see, by getting rid of pinch hopper, I can do this: I activate its special ability, and call out a creepier insect to the field to take its place, like my powerful (4) Metal-Armored Bug (2800/1500)!" The insect he summoned is larger than the others, and like its name sugests, its covers in a thich metal shell. "When Sector Security dumped me here in The Satallite, I thought I'd be spending the rest of my life sifting through the trash," Then he rubbed the bridge of his nose. "But your runners gonna get out of this dump and back to where I belong!"

"I think it's feeding time for your bugs, boss!" Shades said as Finger cackled.

"Whoa!" Tank exclamed.

"Hey, Yusei! Try imagining that bug as a soft, cuddly kitten!" Jason called out.

"Well, Jason," Nervin hindered, "It's gonna take quite the imagination, considering that kittens don't have claws like that."

"Well his imagination must be pretty good if he thinks he'll win," Lenny take Pinch hopper and (5)Insect Soldier from his graveyard slot, and stuffed them in his back pocket, this removing them from play. "And after this next move, your pal's gonna wish he never challenge me! I special summon (6)Doom Dozer (2800/2600)!" Lenny plays a giant pink centerpede in front of him.

"I bet your world's spinning round' and round' right now, isn't it? And it's gonna get more out of control! Chaisaw Insect, it's time to attack!" Revving it chainsaws, the giant ant crawled towards Yusei's Shield Warrior.

"Not so fast! I activate my trap card: Scrapiron Scarecrow!" Yusei's reverse card unleashed a rusty scarecrow, and as the insect chashed with it, sparks flew everywhere between the two. "And thanks to my trap card, you insect attack is repelled and my warrior's safe. Unfortunately i'm only allowed to use this trap card once per round," then scrapiron was set face-down again.

"Ha! Well, since your bug trap's all used up, let's see how you save yourself this time! Metal-Armored Bug, attack! Take out his Shield Warrior!" the colossal critter charged towards hus opponent and ran him over.

"So are you finished?"

"Oh so now you're a tough-guy?!" Lenny's antlion began to glow, "Well, my sell, Retribution of the Antlion's gonna soften you right up!" The sinkhole fired another beam, only this one was targeted as Yusei. He writhered in pain as it connected.

Yusei: 3200

Lenny: 3200

"And now Doom Dozer's gonna attack you into submission!" Dozer unleashes a giant pink blast and collided with yusei in a giant explosion.

"Oh, no, Yuse must mb to scared to fight back!" Blitz dreaded as he held Rally by the sholders.

"Them bugs are gonna squash him!" Shades said as Finger cackled.

As Yusei stands frozen and paralyzed, he wonders if he made a mistake accepting Lenny's challenge. If he doesn't do something soon, then he'll never be able to go to New Domino. 'If i'm gonna stop those insects, I gotta trust in the power of my cards.'

Yusei: 3200

Lenny: 400

"C'mon," Lenny shouts and raises a fist at Yusei, "Aren't you even gonna attack!?"

"How's this for an answer?" Yusei finally said after a long pause, "I summon out...(7)Speed Warrior (900/400)." A grey skating warrior with his face covered in a gas mask appears before Yusei. "And with it, I activate the spell: Double Summon, which means your bugs are in for double the trouble. Cause now I can call out another monster to the field. But 'ganging up' is something you bullies know all about, now isn't it? Those runners," Yusei holds up a monster card that has a picture of a small orange machine on it, "...are staying put. And (8)Junk Synchron's (1300/500) gonna make sure of it."

"Yeah, let's go, Yusei!" Rally cheered.

"Now with Junk Synchron and Speed Warrior finally on my field, I can synchro summon (9)Junk Warrior (2300/1300)!" As Junk Synchron revved the engin on his back, he transformed into a synchro tunnel which surrounded Speed Warrior. And then with a flash of light... "Junk Warrior, let's rev it up!" A larger blue warrior took place. It has a blue-chromed brass knuckle on his right arm.

"Oh no," Lenny was shocked, "With that kind of power, my insects don't stand a chance!"

"Don't worry, boss! He's still afraid! Just throw more of your bugs this way!" Shades called out at Finger cackled.

"I'm not afraid of anything when my Fighting Spirit equip spell card is in play!" as Yusei activated said card, Junk's gauntlet glowed with three rings on it. "See, for each monster you have on the field, my warrior gains 300 ATK points!"

Junk Warrior: (3200/1500)

"I knew Yuse can do it!" Tank said.

"Now it's time to exterminate those insects and save our runners!" Jason added.

"Oh, no," Lenny whined, "With all those extra attack points, my insect's are gonna be stop by that thing!"

"He can't take then all out, Boss!" Shades said as Finger cackled.

"And I don't have to, once I play the Continuous Spell: Domino Effect! So for eack monster I discard to the graveyard, one of your monsters is destroyed!"

"Aw, man! But I was so far ahead!"

"Junk Warrior, send his Chainsaw Insect to the scrapheap!" As Junk flew towards the giant ant, he punched hard and knocked it off-balance. "And now, by sending two cards to the gravyard, Domino Effect activates!" Yusei discards 2 monsrers to his grave slot. "Your bugs, are about to fall!" And after that, Chainsaw stumbled and tumbled on Doom Dozer, which stumbled on Metat-Armor, destroying them all."

Yusei: 3200

Lenny: 2400

"You and your buddys came down here looking to intimidate us, threaten us and push us around. Well, next time you might wanna think twice before messing with my pals, cause we're gonna stand by each other through thick-and-thin!"

"Yeah, you tell that New-Domino-City-Cast-Off the he'd better watct it the next time he come down here!" Rally shouts.

"Yeah, cause' we're not gonna stand for anymore of his bullying tactics," Jason added, "Not now, and not ever!"

"You fought a good duel," Yusei said to Lenny, "But our runners are stayng put just like you, cause' with your Retribution of the Antlion card still in play, you take damage for each monster my Domino Effect took down!"

Yusei: 3200

Lenny: 0

"Alright!" Tank cheered, "Yusei won! He won!"

"Who needs to hire an exterminator when we can call Yusei Fudo for free?" Jason joked.

Lenny slunked to the floor. "I was so close to winning those runners," he whined.

"You had me on the ropes for awhile, but I wasn't sure how I was gonna get few the duel. But an old friend once told me that when your back's against the wall, and it feels like there's no way out, as long as you trust of the power of your deck, youcan find your way out of any situation"

(Flashback)

Jack: Yusei, you have to learn to rely on your entire deck. Don't you see that you could've beaten me today if you only believed in the strength of every card you duel with. Believe, and you will feel thier power.

(End flashback)

"That day, a very valuable lesson was taught to me, a lesson I'll never forget; and it's the belief I have in the power of my cards that gave me the strengh to win this duel."

"Heh, I thought those runners were mine," Lenny smirked and stood up. "Yusei, maybe me and you can be friends someday," he said sincerely, "Next time, we'll duel topside."

Yusei smiled, "But no bugs, okay?"

Later, in New Domino...

Entering Jack Atlas, he practices on his duel runner running a few practice rounds on his own personal racing track, until someone came to him on the intercom. "Jack." When he makes a stop, he takes off his helmet, to be greeted by Rex Goodwin.

"Bravo, Jack. You dueled well tonight."

And Yusei? Are things going according to plan" He asks as he looks at the brightly lit moon.

"Yes. Sector Secerity has informed us that we have nothing to worry about."

Meanwhile...

With that little recent event came and gone, through the giant crack on the subway celing, Yusei looks up at the same illuminating moonlight.

'look out, Jack. I'm coming to take back what's mine.'


Jack: Let's say we kick this Jukebox into overdrive!

They say it's not about winning.

It's how you play the game.

But if I'm not the first then I'm the worst.

And there ain't no one else to blame.

You'd better be better than best.

Anything less, you're out of your league.

Gotta go faster than fastest.

You can't catch what you can't see.

The difference between trying and winning.

One's for losers, but number one's for me.

Just can't take your best shot.

Can't just give it all ya got.

When the going's this tough.

Being good, ain't good enough.

Losing's got nice names.

Like runner-up and second place.

They're sugar-coated failures.

Just a way of saving face.

You'd better be better than best.

Anything less, you're out of your league.

Gotta go faster than fastest.

You can't catch what you can't see.

The difference between trying and winning.

One's for losers, but number one's for me.
