Note from the Author: The fire that is in me as I write continues to burn inside me and since I'm in a great mood, I've done two chapters today. Here's the conclusion to the intense duel between Chief O'Reilly and Dominic. Enjoy.

Duel 11: The Great Chain Escape Part Two: Fight for Freedom

Previously on Fairly OddFuture… (in Dominic's POV)

My name is Dominic Turner and if you don't have a clue what's going on, here's a recap. I get transferred to another cell and this area is home to long-term convicts who end up here for serious crimes. I meet Aiden, a guy that has been in the facility for a year. He had a plan which would involve us escaping the place but that would be on hold because my friends Old Man Thomas and Harold end up being falsely accused for various crimes. O'Reilly comes by and decides to put everyone on lockdown but I wasn't gonna let that fat brownie tell me what to do so therefore I challenged him to a duel. With the help of the inmates here, I was able to build a deck but the duel between me and him was only the beginning of my troubles. Why? Well why don't you find out as this duel is heating up.

Duel Standings

Dominic's Lifepoints: 3000, cards in deck: 30, cards in hand: 4, cards set: 1

O'Reilly's Lifepoints: 36, cards in hand: 3, cards set: 1
Iron Chain Repairman (Attack: 1600/Defense: 1200), equipped to Soul Anchor (Continuous Trap Card)

Dominic was still suffering from the strain of that electric jolt and knowing this, he was going to feel a lot more of that soon. O'Reilly looked at Dominic struggling to get up and realized that he was no ordinary opponent. What he doesn't know is that cameras were keeping a close eye on him and one of the guards watched his every move. Knowing this, O'Reilly knew it as it was an advantage to him.

"You can't take me down easily. I'm ready to make sure that you go down ya fat tub of chocolate lard." Dominic said as he got up ready to go at it yet again.

"Is that right boy? You don't impress me because I'm gonna make sure that your freedom will be going away piece by piece. So what are you waiting for… are you gonna make your move or what?" O"Reilly said as Dominic was ready to make his move.

"That bastard… he set this duel up to ensure that Dominic would suffer every time he loses lifepoints. That's truly unfair." Harold said as Dominic made his move.

Turn 5

"It's my move now and I play the spell Nightmare's Steelcage (Spell Card). Thanks to this spell card, none of us can attack for the next two turns which may give me a bit of relief." Dominic said (Hand: 4, Deck: 29 cards) but O'Reilly wasn't really impressed.

"So you ain't gonna summon a monster this turn huh? I figure as much coming from a guy like you." O'Reilly replied as Dominic's turn wasn't finished.

"I set one card face down and that ends my turn. Let's see what you got ya chocolate chunk of junk!" Dominic said as he set a card face down (Hand: 3) ending his turn which got O'Reilly revved up to go on the offensive.

"Yeah… my card will bail Domnic out of that fix for sure!" one of the inmates said as the other inmate near him knew it wouldn't be enough.

"Dimwit, don't you know he's still in a fix. What good will that card do huh?" the other inmate replied as the duel continued on.

Turn 6

"My turn now boy… you think that you can hide behind that cage of yours? Guess what… not even a cage will save you from my assaults on you. Now I summon my Iron Chain Snake (Attack: 800/Defense: 1200) in attack mode. I forgot to tell you that I have two of these cards so this can be cleared up." O'Reilly said (Hand: 3) as his second Iron Chain Snake appeared on the field ready to sink his fangs on the enemy.

((Well now that I know he has two Iron Chain Snakes, I have a feeling he may bring back one of those things.)) Dominic thought as O'Reilly had a surprise in store for him.

"Now for my Iron Chain Repairman's effect and he lets me special summon an Iron Chain monster that is four stars or less… so I bring back my first Iron Chain Snake." O'Reilly said as Iron Chain Repairman slammed his hammer to the ground which brought back the first Iron Chain Snake.

"Next I'll activate these two continuous spell cards and I'll be nice enough to explain them to you. The first spell here is Poison Chain (Continuous Spell Card) and it goes like this. If I don't declare an attack this turn, Poison Chain will force the opponent to discard cards from their deck equal to the total level of all my Iron Chain monsters. The total level number of all my Iron Chain monsters is 10 which if you don't understand goes like this. Iron Chain Repairman is a level 4 and both my Iron Chain Snakes are each level 3 which means you must discard ten cards from your deck to the graveyard. Now be a good boy and discard will ya? I don't got all day to make my move ya know." O'Reilly said (Hand: 1) as Dominic took the top 10 cards from his deck and discarded them to the graveyard reducing his deck greatly. (Dominic's deck: 19 cards)

((Note from the Author: I'm going by the anime effect of Poison Chain because the TCG effect is quite different which would force Dominic to discard three cards instead. Continuing on… ))

((I'm down to 19 cards and this guy is draining my deck like crazy. If this keeps up, I'll lose the duel and my freedom.)) Dominic thought as he discarded the cards but that would be only the beginning of his troubles.

"I think I understand… O'Reilly's strategy is to destroy Dominic's deck so by not attacking, he'll be forced to discard cards each turn. Dominic is now down to two turns if this keeps up." Harold said as Old Man Thomas realized that Dominic's move forced him into a corner.

"Looks like Nightmare's Steelcage ended up putting O'Reilly into an advantage… this is not good." Old Man Thomas replied as O'Reilly was hesitant to explain the second continuous spell.

"Oh yeah… there is also my second spell which is called Paralyzing Chain (Continuous Spell Card) and with this effect, you lose 300 lifepoints each time you are forced to discard cards from your deck." O'Reilly said as Dominic screamed feeling the surge of electricity flowing through his body as a result of a lifepoint loss. (Dominic's lifepoints: 2700)

Meanwhile, Aiden lifted up his bunk bed mattress and got into the tunnel hoping that he would find his chance out of here. Knowing that there was nothing he could do, he got in there without even giving a second thought. Back at the duel, Dominic got up still reeling from the shock as O'Reilly laughed on enjoying what could be Dominic's last moments of freedom.

"I didn't think you had it in ya. I wonder if you will be able to hold out until your lifepoints hit zero." O'Reilly said as Dominic was gearing up to make his move.

Turn 7

"It… it's my turn now." Dominic said as he drew his next card though he was still reeling from the shocks. (Hand: 4, Deck: 18 cards)

Meanwhile, Aiden went out of the area and saw the wellhole where he would make his escape from the facility. But he had second thoughts mostly because of Dominic's harsh words about his friends and the friendship that he carries to them.

"What awaits you after leaving your friends behind… wouldn't be true freedom but only loneliness."

Aiden knew that his words would get to him and realized that he had to do something especially in the situation that Dominic was in. Back at the duel, Dominic drew his card but what he doesn't know was that he was being watched by the cameras catching an eye on every card he drew, set and played.

"I place these three cards face down on the field…" Dominic said (Hand: 1) as he set three cards but O'Reilly was quick to spot it and activated a card of his own.

"I activate the quick-play spell Psychic Cyclone (Quick-Play Spell Card) and it gives me the right to declare whether a card you set is a Spell or Trap. If I get it right, I can destroy it and draw a card but if I get it wrong then you get to draw a card. I choose the card that is on the far left and I guess it to be a Trap." O'Reilly said as Psychic Cyclone immediately destroyed the card which turned out to be a trap… Dust Tornado (Trap Card).

"A Dust Tornado eh? Such a shame because now I geto to draw a card. You should know that trap cards can't be activated on the turn they were set on the field. If you were able to use that to destroy my Poison Chain spell, you would have a chance of winning but too bad." O'Reilly said as he drew a card from his deck due to Psychic Cyclone's effect. (O'Reilly's hand: 2)

"That jerk… now his intution is getting sharper! The duel has been rigged from the start and Dominic is paying the price." Harold said as Dominic was far from finished.

"It doesn't matter because I set one more card face down and end my turn." Dominic (Hand: 0) replied as he set another card face down emptying his hand in the process.

Turn 8

"My turn now… I summon my Iron Chain Blaster (Attack: 1100/Defense: 0) in attack mode!" O'Reilly said (Hand: 2) as he summoned an Iron Chain monster that carried a large weapon used for blasting its foes.

"Now my Poison Chain's effect activates and that means you must discard cards from your deck equal to the total level of all my Iron Chain Monsters. Since my Iron Chain Blaster's a level two, you have to discard 12 cards from your deck instead of ten. So go and discard brat!" O'Reilly said as Dominic discarded twelve cards from his deck reducing his deck further. (Dominic's deck: 6 cards)

"That means you are down to six cards left and if you run out of cards to draw by then, you lose and I'll look forward to making you suffer every day. Now comes my Paralyzing Chain which inflicts 300 points of damage every time you are forced to discard cards to the graveyard." O'Reilly spoke as Dominic felt a surge of electricity yet again which meant that his lifepoints went down. (Dominic's lifepoints: 2400)

"But I ain't finished because I activate my Chain Blaster's effect. By sending one Iron Chain monster to the grave, you take 800 points of damage so I send my Iron Chain Snake to have Iron Chain Blaster blast you!" O'Reilly said as he sacrificed Iron Chain Snake so that Iron Chain Blaster would fire a blast of energy which hit Dominic and caused him to suffer even more… about 800 lifepoints more plus another jolt. (Dominic's lifepoints: 1600)

"Then my Iron Chain Repairman's effect kicks in which will let me summon an Iron Chain monster that is four stars or less and the perfect candidate is my Iron Chain Snake… return!" O'Reilly said as Iron Chain Snake returned to the field with help from Iron Chain Repairman.

"This isn't good. If this keeps up, Dominic will go down by these effects and his freedom will be stripped completely." Harold said as O'Reilly was finished with his turn but things were about to take a sudden turn for the unexpected as the Nightmare's Steel Cage disappeared which made the situation very dire.

"I end my turn and the Nightmare's Steel Cage goes away. You might as well accept defeat now and I'll make sure to go easy on you when its over." O'Reilly replied as Dominic didn't like that one bit.

Turn 9

"Is that all you got ya fat fart because that won't stop me one bit from taking you down." Dominic said as O'Reilly got plissed after what he had heard.

"If that's how it is then suit yourself. I'll make sure that you get a one-way ticket to extreme isolation here so hurry up and make your move so I can finish you." O'Reilly replied as Dominic was getting ready to draw a card but something unexpected happened. (Dominic's hand: 1, deck: 5 cards)

The lights went out and that caught everyone by surprise for it was then the backup generators kick in and that made O'Reilly wonder what was going on.

"What just happened? How come the lights went out?" O'Reilly whispered into his mic beneath his warden jacket.

"We're not sure sir. We are detecting nothing out of the ordinary. We'll keep in touch if anything happens." One of the guards said as O'Reilly thought of it as an ordinary power outage.

Dominic then looked and wondered if Aiden has happened and it was then Dominic continued with his turn and he was ready to go on the move.

"I activate the trap Jar of Greed (Trap Card) and it lets me draw a card from my deck." Dominic said as he drew a card from his deck. (Hand: 2, Deck: 4 cards)

"Trying to speed up the inevitable eh? You are down to four cards now and its only a matter of time before victory is mine." O'Reilly replied as Dominic was far from finished.

"Next I play the trap card Call of the Haunted (Continuous Trap Card) which lets me bring back a monster from my graveyard in attack mode. I choose The Kickman (Attack: 1300/Defense: 300) to return to the field!" Dominic said as The Kickman returned to the field but O'Reilly was not impressed.

"So what if you brought that monster back… it won't help you. Besides, what good will it do ya?" O'Reilly replied as Dominic knew what he was doing.

"Every card that you think as trash contains untold potential and it's high time I show you what that potential is. You see whenever The Kickman is special summoned, I can take an equip spell card from my graveyard and equip it with that monster and I choose… Axe of Despair (Equip Spell Card)! This equip spell gives The Kickman a 1000 attack point boost making it stronger than any of your monsters." Dominic said as The Kickman's attack power increased further (The Kickman's attack: 2300).

"Alright! That will definitely put Dominic in an advantage. It won't be long before O'Reilly tastes defeat." Harold said as Old man Thomas was liking how things are going.

"I now summon to the field Exiled Force (Attack: 1000/Defense: 1000) in attack mode!" Dominic spoke (Hand: 1) as he summoned a group of rogue mercenaries that are willing to do battle by the wishes of the highest bidder.

"It's time now to do battle. Kickman attack his Iron Chain Snake now!" Dominic shouted as The Kickman destroyed one of the Iron Chain Snakes which not only cut some lifepoints off O'Reilly but gave him one hell of a shock. (O'Reilly's lifepoints: 2100)

"Wait a minute… is this guy faking it? He has some nerve pulling off that." Old Man Thomas said as Harold disagreed seeing that the pain O'Reilly was feeling was real.

"I wouldn't count on that… by the looks of that shock, I'd say he's feeling it for real." Harold replied as he knew something was up but Dominic wasn't done.

"I go on the attack again… Exiled Force destroy his second Chain Snake!" Dominic shouted as O'Reilly pleaded him to stop but it didn't matter because he was gonna feel another shock due to the lifepoint loss. (O'Reilly's lifepoints: 1900)

It was then Dominic began to notice that O'Reilly wasn't faking those screams… they were real and by the looks of it, O'Reilly was more charred up than a well-done steak and that was a good thing.

"W-What's going on… why is electricity streaming from this Duel Disk?" O'Reilly said as he collapsed to the ground obviously from the intense shocks he had felt which to Dominic, it was about time that he got a taste of his own medicine.

It was then that the alarm began to kick in as an intruder was found and realizing this, O'Reilly knew something was up… and it wasn't pretty for sure.

"Attention, we have secured an intruder in the electronic control room! I repeat – we have secured an intruder in the electronic control room!" the loudspeaker spoke as O'Reilly tried to reel himself from the pain as he tried to take hair from his nose only to find the hair he took out burned up.

"An intruder… I knew something was up for sure. No wonder I've been getting those shocks for sure." O'Reilly said as he got up and saw a few guards who had captured the intruder.

"Sir, we got the intruder. He's in our custody right now!" one of the guards said as the intruder turned out to be Aiden who had a smile on his face as if what he did was a good thing.

"No… Aiden, they caught you?" Dominic said as he was completely shocked to find Aiden caught by the guards but there had to be a reason behind it and Aiden was not afraid to tell.

"How in the hell did you escape from here?" O'Reilly shouted as he tried to find out what happened but one of the guards explained.

"Sir, we discovered a hole under his bed. He must have used it to make his escape." The guard replied as O'Reilly was pissed off.

"Damn you… hurry up and cut the power to my Duel Disk immediately. I have a duel to win!" O'Reilly said to the guard but Aiden replied.

"Can't do that I'm afraid…" Aiden replied as O'Reilly caught his eye and knew something was up.

"Huh? Just what do you mean by that ya little brat!?" O'Reilly said as he soon found out that Aiden had did something which would explain why O'Reilly was suffering the same current that Dominic had endured.

"Sir, the system that regulates the electric current is out of commission… we're unable to repair it. In other words, we can't cut power to your Duel Disk." One of the guards said as O'Reilly got even more angry and that wasn't gonna be good for Aiden or Dominic.

"Why you… after I'm done dealing with this suburb trash, you're next!" O'Reilly shouted as Aiden seemed confident almost as if he knew what he did.

"Say what you please but it won't matter because now the playing field is even. Dominic will kick your fat ass to the curb for sure!" Aiden replied as Dominic wondered what was going on.

"Aiden, why did you come back? I thought you were gonna escape from this place." Dominic said but Aiden had a reason why.

"You were right Dominic… if you run away and leave your friends behind then your heart will no doubt be held down by the chains of guilt and even outside the walls you would never experience true freedom." Aiden replied as Dominic realized that his words had gotten to him.

"If you'll be judging crimes at your discretion, I would like to add a new stipulation to this duel. If I win, you'll drop Aidan's charges of escape and obstruction." Dominic replied as O'Reilly was pissed and agreed to the terms.

"Fine but if you lose, your friend here goes down with you! Nonetheless, shouldn't your turn come to an end because if it does then it's time for me to make my move." O'Reilly said but Dominic wasn't finished with his turn because he had one more thing to do.

"My turn isn't over so I release my Exiled Force to destroy your Iron Chain Repairman. Now, I end my turn." Dominic replied as his turn came to an end.

"Great! So on his next turn, Poison Chain's effect will shave off only three cards… he may have a chance." Harold said as he was watching everything unfold.

"He's getting through this duel by a thread… how does he do it?" Old Man Thomas replied as he wondered how Dominic is doing so well.

"He can't let down his guard yet… O'Reilly still has some tricks up his sleeve. If he summons a monster on his next turn, Dominic's chances of survival will get even slimmer and his defeat will be inevitable." Harold said as O'Reilly was ready to make his move. He drew a card and it turns out it wasn't a monster.

Turn 10

"It's my move now… and it seems you got lucky. That won't matter because I'm here to take it up a notch. For starters, I play the quick-play spell Reload (Quick-Play Spell Card) and this allows me to add the cards in my hand to my deck, shuffle and then draw the same amount that I put in my deck." O'Reilly said as he took both cards in his hand, added them to his deck which then shuffled and he immediately drew in which what he got would prove quite useful.

"I play the spell Mystical Space Typhoon (Quick-Play Spell Card) and it lets me destroy one spell or trap on the field and I choose the one that is on the far left." O'Reilly said (Hand: 1) as he played the card which caused a cyclone to emerge which destroyed the card but it wasn't the card he had in mind.

"Now I activate a trap card… Battle Mania (Trap Card)! With this trap, all monsters are forced to attack this turn. Too bad though… you were close but not close enough." Dominic replied as O'Reilly was upset after what he had saw.

"Great job Dominic! Poison Chain's effect only works when you don't attack and by forcing to attack, it won't activate." Harold said as O'Reilly wondered what was going on.

"What is going on? I thought I got the right card." O'Reilly whispered into his mic in which a reply came afterwards.

"We did sir but it turned out that he must have switched his set cards when that blackout occurred." The officer said as O'Reilly underestimated him.

((You truly are a vigilant one but it won't matter because this duel is coming to an end. I may not force you to clean out your deck but I'll show you the true meaning of my power!)) O'Reilly thought as he was ready to unleash the true strength of his Iron Chain deck.

"I summon the tuner monster Iron Chain Coil (Attack: 1100/Defense: 1600) in attack mode!" O'Reilly spoke (Hand: 0) as he summoned a Tuner monster to the field and there was a funny feeling that a Synchro Summon was about to take place.

"Now I tune my Level-4 Iron Chain Coil with the Level-2 Iron Chain Blaster… to Synchro Summon the Level-6 Iron Chain Dragon (Attack: 2500/Defense: 1300)!" O'Reilly shouted as a synchro summon took place causing Iron Chain Coil to turn into four circulated synchrowaves which then encircled Iron Chain Blaster that turned into two stars of light. In an instant, a light emerged from above and brought out a dragon that had chains and let forth a roar that was fierce and destructive.

"Now for my Iron Chain Dragon's special effect. For every Iron Chain monster that is in my graveyard, my new monster gets an additional 200 attack points. Since I have five Iron Chain monsters in my graveyard, my Iron Chain Dragon gets a 1000 attack point boost!" O'Reilly shouted as Iron Chain Dragon let out a roar which signify that its attack power had increased. (Iron Chain Dragon's Attack: 3500)

((Darn, that makes it even more powerful than The Kickman. This is so not gonna be fun.)) Dominic thought as O'Reilly was immediately on the attack.

"Now my Chain Dragon attack The Kickman now! Iron Chain Blast!" O'Reilly shouted as Iron Chain Dragon unleashed a powerful blast destroying The Kickman which caused Dominic's lifepoints to drop further not to mention cause an insane amount of electricity to surge through his body. (Dominic's lifepoints: 400)

"I'm not finished for Iron Chain Dragon has a second effect. When it destroys a monster in battle, you have to discard cards from your deck equal to the monster's level that was destroyed. Since the Kickman was a Level 3 monster, you have to discard 3 cards from your deck to the graveyard." O'Reilly said as Dominic discarded three cards to the graveyard which left him with only one card in his deck. (Dominic's deck: 1 card)

"Now my Paralyzing Chain kicks in and you take 300 points of damage!" O'Reilly said as Dominic felt another jolt which caused his lifepoints to drop further. (Dominic's lifepoints: 100)

"Now things are really getting bad… he's down to 100 lifepoints and he has one card in his deck. If he can't pull his way out of this, he'll lose." Harold said as Old Man Thomas looked on in shock.

"I end my turn and with only one card left in your deck, your defeat is inevitable and I will look forward to making your life here a living hell!" O'Reilly said as he took hairs from his nose and blew them off into the wind.

Turn 11

It was then that Dominic got up still reeling from the shocks knowing for sure that he had only one card left and only one option remains… to hope that he draws the right one.

"It's… my… last draw." Dominic said as he drew the last card in his deck (Hand: 2) in which O'Reilly laughed like a complete asshole knowing that victory would be his.

"You are down to 100 lifepoints and no cards left in your deck. I'd say this match is as good as over wouldn't you agree?" O'Reilly replied as for some reason Dominic agreed with him.

"You are right… this match has come to an end… an end for you." Dominic said as O'Reilly wondered what he meant.

"Huh? What do you mean by that? What can you do now that you have nothing to protect you." O'Reilly replied as Dominic knew all along what he had planned.

"Because of your chain strategy which forced me to discard cards to the graveyard, I'm confident I'll win and with what I have here will mark the end for you. You had disrespected us and treated us like we were garbage but I think you got it all wrong. This whole duel will prove that there is no one in the world that is not needed… you may not believe me but I'll let the cards speak for themselves. I know that you were spying on me through those surveillance cameras so that's why I swapped my trump card so they couldn't see it during that blackout. Despite the information from those cameras prove incorrect, you should have been at least more careful. Time to end this… I summon the King of Rubble (Attack: 0/Defense: 0) in attack mode." Dominic said (Hand: 1) as he summoned a monster that looked like a king sitting on his throne.

"Now I activate its effect and if I have 30 or more cards in my graveyard, I can activate a trap card from my hand. And the card I activate is this… I play my final card Blasting the Ruins (Trap Card)! If I have 30 or more cards in my graveyard, you take 3000 points of damage!" Dominic shouted (Hand: 0) as all the cards that were in his graveyard turned into rocks which were then hurled straight at O'Reilly which caused him to lose the rest of his lifepoints not to mention suffering a shock from hell as he ended up on the floor from the intense voltage. (O'Reilly's lifepoints: 0)

"He did it… the son of a bitch did it! He actually beat O'Reilly!" Harold said as he was shocked and pleased with the outcome.

"Who would have guessed that it took someone like him to take down that pathetic fool like O'Reilly." Old Man Thomas replied as the inmates were pleased seeing that their cards help defeat O'Reilly.

All the inmates cheered as Dominic was victorious in his duel against O'Reilly and knowing his victory, he felt relieved that the strength of his cards helped defeat the Chief. However, O'Reilly wasn't gonna take his defeat lightly.

"Grab that jerk and put him in lockdown!" O'Reilly shouted as Dominic and Aiden were shocked that the agreement wasn't as planned.

"Hey what about our agreement? You said you would drop the charges!" Aiden replied and O'Reilly didn't give a shit seeing that he was defeated.

"The agreement is off… now I'm gonna make everyone suffer!" O'Reilly shouted but someone intervened which caught everyone by surprise.

"I'm afraid I can't allow you to do that, Chief O'Reilly." Someone said which shocked O'Reilly as he looked up and saw that it was Mr. Nichols who said it.

"You disappoint me, O'Reilly… I was watching the duel and I must say that I'm disgusted with the way you abuse your power. This facility is created to help bring those that are convicted and teach them the error of their actions but I can't seem to make that possible if the bond between guards and inmates are not in balance. You disgust me, O'Reilly… pack up your things for you are fired! I congratulate you on your victory, Dominic… you possess great potential." Mr. Nichols shouted as O'Reilly could only watch as everything went crashing down and it crashed down big time.

Dominic could only look on in shock as he saw that he had been victorious in his battle not to mention seeing O'Reilly get fired. It couldn't get any better than this as everything went back to normal.

"I just can't believe it kid… looks like you are gonna get your freedom after all." Harold said seeing that Dominic won the duel along with his freedom.

"I agree though that guy Nichols showed up when he did otherwise we would have been in some serious lockdown." Aiden replied as he was pleased that things went back to normal.

"Yep. It looks like we may get out of here as well. What are you gonna do now Dominic?" Old Man Thomas said as Dominic had one simple objective.

"Get my stuff that had been confiscated by those dorks. Without it, I may not be able to get a chance to duel again." Dominic replied but not before Old Man Thomas gave him a parting gift; a trap card known as Totem Pole Tower.

"This… that's the card I used to beat Harold in that duel two days ago. Why are you giving me it?" Dominic said shocked after seeing Old Man Thomas giving him one of his cards.

"Don't worry kid. This card helped you in your duel and I know it will bring you good luck." Old Man Thomas replied as Dominic put the card in his pocket.

"Dominic, take this with you. Head to a bar downtown called "Bootleg" where you'll find a man who goes by the name of Sal. Show Sal this card and he'll help you get your stuff back." Harold said as Dominic took Harold's Great Bull Ogre knowing it may be the key to getting his stuff back.

"Thank you, I'll do my best." Dominic replied as he knew he was set to go through with his objective which was getting his stuff back.

Meanwhile at the Security Bureau far from the facility, Mr. Nichols and his assistant Jager were discussing about Dominic's recent freedom but it wasn't as it seems.

"Sir, are you sure we should let him roam free as he pleases? I don't think that would be necessary letting someone like him go." Jager said as Mr. Nichols knew what he was doing.

"Even if he is at that facility, if he can't awaken his hidden powers of the Signer it wouldn't do us any good. Besides, I never told that person that he can roam free… he is necessary to our plan after all." Mr. Nichols replied as he knew what he was doing.

"You are one smart fellow… we'll ensure that we keep an eye on him for anything that comes across." Jager said as she let off her evil chuckle seeing that the two of them had a plan of their own.

The doors of the facility opened as Dominic began walking away from the area but what he doesn't know is that someone was watching him leave waiting for an opportunity to make his move. It turns out that it was an individual who had crossed paths with Dominic before… twice and this time, he's here for a reason of his own.

"And there he goes… never thought he would get out of there." The fellow said who took off his helmet revealing a scar on his face from his last encounter. It turned out to be Officer Teinel Robbins who was waiting for Dominic and with a sign of anger in his eyes… only one thing would be on his mind and that would be revenge.

"You better watch yourself kid… I'm gonna make sure that you pay... for ruining my life." Teinel said as he continued to see Dominic leave the area containing an anger that was as fierce and destructive.

What did Teinel mean by those words? Had something happened to him which caused him to be like this? What does he have planned? Only time will tell but for you to find out… that's saved for another time.

On the next Fairly OddFuture: I'm out of the facility and on a search to get my stuff back. In order to do that, I need to find a man named Sal who claims to be a jack-of-all trades. He tells me that I have to sneak into a Security Storage Warehouse. But before I would soon get that opportunity, I encounter an old foe… and he wants revenge. The same person that I encounter twice now wants payback because he says I ruined his life. I certainly have a knack for meeting strange people but he won't stop me from getting my gear back. Next time on Fairly OddFuture, Weaving the Bonds. Riding Duel, Acceleration!
