A/N: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF YU GI OH 5Ds! ALL RIGHTS GO TO THE CREATORS! THE ONLY THING I OWN ARE MY OCS!
Chapter 10: Confusion
A few days later, Yusei, Jack, Crow, Akiza, and Bruno were together in the garage making sure the improved duel runners would be okay.
"Think they're good ?" Akiza asked sounding quite hopeful.
"We'll be practicing running them tomorrow. We'll be able to tell then," Yusei answered.
Suddenly, the door burst open and we turned to see Leo and Luna running in.
"We heard the duel runners are finished," Luna stated happily.
"Are they good to go?" Leo asked.
"Should be," Yusei answered.
"Nice new outfits, guys," Leo complemented seeing the outfits Jack, Crow, and Yusei were wearing.
"Thanks," Yusei responded.
"It's a bit uncomfortable, in my opinion," Jack stated. "I'm used to wearing my old clothes."
"Don't say stupid things like that. You're wearing the same clothes you always have!" Crow retorted.
"No fighting," Yusei cut in sternly making the fight cease before it began.
He knew they mainly stopped because they didn't want to bother him at the moment. He had been tense around them lately, since that two-thirds sided fight after Crash Town. They were struggling in refraining from checking in on him at the moment. They just didn't want to bother him and get on his bad side at the moment.
Luna looked at the name on the suits. "5D's?" she questioned. "Is that the team name?"
"Yeah," Crow answered. "Jack chose the name himself."
"Crow suggested it. It's better than using some other common name," Jack retorted.
"What does '5D's' even mean?" Leo asked.
"It means there are five D's. Like devil, destroy, dead hit, dark, daisuki Bruno-" Bruno listed off but stopped as Jack hit him on the head.
"It starts with this," Jack stated and showed his mark.
"The five marks of the Crimson Dragon?" Luna asked.
Yusei nodded. "Our bonds were called together by the Crimson Dragon," he explained.
"And even though I don't have a mark, Luna and I came to know everyone because of Luna's mark," Leo commented.
"You two are part of the team too," Jack stated shocking them.
"My name isn't there. Maybe we should call the team 'Bruno and 5D's'," Bruno suggested prompting Jack to hit Bruno on the head again.
Yusei sighed. "Jack, stop hitting him," he ordered calmly.
"I think it's a good name," Akiza stated.
They all put our hands together, and Yusei forced himself to show no pain or any sign that he felt any pain. He then proclaimed, "From today onwards we are Team 5D's."
"So, Yusei, how have you b-?" Akiza began but stopped as Crow made a gesture that said to not say anything.
"Please, stop checking in on me all the time. I am fine and will be fine. That's all you need to understand and know," he stated sternly, but he wasn't looking at them at all. "It's getting way to annoying dealing with pretty much the exact same question every day. I appreciate that you care, but you don't have to be so worried about me."
"Alright," Akiza agreed. "Sorry, Yusei."
"It's fine," he responded. "Just don't ask that question anymore." The twins and elder female Signer nodded in agreement while Jack and Crow seemed annoyed.
They talked for a bit on other matters before Yusei got a call for a job. He headed out with that. Akiza and the twins turned to the Signers of the Wings and Tail that were left of the three male Signers.
"I've never really seen Yusei that tense," Luna commented.
"Yusei's just got a lot on his mind and he gets stressed when worry gets pummeled onto him like what you five have been doing all the time by what he's told me," Bruno told them. "With everything on him, including the worry, he's bound to get tense. I think the fact he was called for a job will help him get a small break from it all."
"I'm not sure I'd call doing a job a 'break'," Crow responded.
"Maybe we should lay off of him a bit, though," Akiza suggested. "He was stressed enough before. We shouldn't be adding stress like that onto him even more."
"And when we were at Security Headquarters, Mina did mention that by checking in on him at least once every day, it's just another reminder that he was taken and tortured," Bruno added. "Hasn't he been wanting to forget his time there?"
"Yeah, I guess," Crow agreed.
"My only concern is his chest, though," Jack commented.
"Why?" Leo asked.
"Almost every time I see him, when he moves his chest, he is either fighting to not wince or wincing in pain," Jack explained.
Crow nodded. "I noticed it, too."
"Shouldn't his chest have been healed by now?" Luna asked.
"In normal conditions, it should be," Akiza answered. "And if he's still feeling pain in his chest, there must be something going on that the doctor's missed."
