"Now Utopia end this duel!" commanded Richard. "Destroy them with Light Stream Blast!" Utopia opened his mouth and a stream of light shout out of it towards Yusei, Jack, and Crow. "It's over Yusei!" screamed Richard.
"The duel ain't over until the fat lady puts away her deck!" shouted Crow.
"What do you mean Crow?" shouted Richard.
"What I mean is that when you declare a direct attack on our life points I can special summon Blackwing-Ghibli the Searing Wind in defense mode!" shouted Crow. Crow's Blackwing appeared on the field just in time to block the attack. However the aftershocks of the blast knocked Yusei, Jack, and Crow off their feet.
"Jack!" screamed Carly.
"Crow!" said Leo and Luna.
"Yusei!" shouted Akiza. Yusei sat back up and looked at Akiza and gave wiry thumbs up.
"You guys okay?" asked Yusei.
"I'm alright thanks to Crow." said Jack.
"That was a pretty slick move wasn't it?" said Crow.
"It kept us in the duel." said Yusei.
"And keeps Carly, the twins, and Akiza from getting shocked." said Jack.
"If I were you three I wouldn't bother standing up!" said Richard. The guys looked at him. "Face it with your ace monsters destroyed you have nothing to stand against my dragon. Just lie there. Just lie there and accept your defeat!" Yusei got on to his knees and pushed off of them to stand back up. Jack stood up with a little difficulty and as Crow stood up he felt a small pain in his arm. "Must have pulled my arm out of its socket." he thought. "I'll deal with it later. Right now we've got bigger things to worry about."
When all three of them stood up Richard frowned and said "Fine. If you three wish to prolong your surfing I will be more than happy to help. I end my turn."
"Then it's my move!" shouted Crow. (Richard lifepoints-2100, hand-4/Yusei, Jack, Crow lifepoints-2900, hands-Jack-0, Yusei-2, Crow-1)
"First I'll use my face down card Jar of Greed to draw a card from my deck." said Crow. "Alright, now I'll use Pot of Greed to draw two new ones."
"I hope Crow has something that can defend us from Utopia." thought Yusei.
Crow drew his two cards and grinned. "Let's do this. I use Mystical Space Typhon to destroy your Swords of Revealing Light!"
"Alright we can attack again!" said Jack.
"Now I summon Blackwing Fane the Steel Chain (attack-500)!" said Crow. "Now go and attack!" Crows Blackwing rose into the air and head straight for Utopia.
"Sorry Crow but I'm afraid your little birdy doesn't have enough attack points to destroy Utopia." said Richard.
"Who said I was attacking Utopia?" asked Crow. Then Fane the Steel Chain flew around Utopia and headed towards Richard. "Thanks to my Steel Chains special ability it can dive past your dragon and attack you directly!" Fane threw its chain into the air and brought it down in a whipping motion and struck Richard across the chest. The force of the attack sent him flying backwards. "Take that." said Crow. "I place a card face down."
"If I were you I wouldn't even bother standing up." mocked Jack. Richard raised his head a little and glared at them.
"Jacks right." said Crow. "You're never gonna win this duel."
"We will defeat you and save your friends." said Yusei.
"And when it's over we will be the ones left standing while you will be trapped in the shadows." said Jack. Richard staggered a little as he stood up but once he did he let out a small chuckle.
"What's so funny?" asked Yusei.
"Persistent. Determined. Loyal to their friends. Brave in the face of danger. Courageous. Never gives up. And full of fighting spirit." said Richard. "It just amazes me."
"What amazes you?" asked Yusei.
"How much of your father's traits exist in all three of you." said Richard. "Even though you never met him."
"My father?" said Yusei.
"How do you know ?" asked Jack.
"Who do you think help build the original Reactor in the first place?" asked Richard.
"Wait a minute!" said Crow. "Are you telling us that you helped Yusei's dad create the Reactor that caused Zero Reverse?"
"That is exactly what I'm saying Crow." said Richard.
"That's a lie!" said Yusei. "It was my father and my father alone that discovered planetary particles and come up with the planetary gear concept!"
"Well that part of the story is true Yusei." said Richard. "It was your father and your father alone that did all that. However when it came to the Reactor and its capabilities your father and I were the ones in charge."
"But how?" asked Crow. "How did you end up involved with Dr. Fudo's research? I thought Rex and Roman Goodwin were his assistances."
"Rex and Roman didn't enter the picture until after the reactor use finished." said Richard. "And way after I was betrayed by the man I thought was my friend."
"What are talking about?" asked Jack.
"In order to explain I would have to go back to the beginning." said Richard. "The very beginning. The day I first met Yusei's father."
"We both had just been hired by Kaiba Corp's energy research department to be one of the heads assistance's." said Richard. "As soon as we greeted each other I knew instantly that I had just met one of the greatest minds of our time. Somehow I knew this young man was going to make the discovery of a life time and go down in history. You can imagine how surprised I was when that actually happened." Richard chuckled a little after saying this.
"But what does my father have to do with any of this?" asked Yusei. "What does he have to do with the fact that you've been hunting me and my friends down for weeks trying to revive our marks?"
"So you did figure out my true motive behind the attacks?" said Richard. "Not surprised Yusei. After all you are 's son." Yusei just growled. "Your dear father has everything to do with this Yusei." "It all started a few weeks after we had joined Kaiba Corp. We were running a test for our boss when it happened"
-Flashback-
Richard was sitting at his desk with Dr. Fudo right next to him working in the laboratory. "There that should do it." Richard said. "All the calculations are in."
"Good." said Dr. Fudo. "We should go over it again just to make sure we haven't made a mistake."
"Would you relax we didn't make a mistake." Richard told him.
"You're probably right but I just want to make sure." Dr. Fudo got up and went for the door. "I have to use the bathroom real quick. After that we'll double check everything." he said.
"But I did not wish to wait. I was 100% sure that we didn't make a mistake. So I went ahead and started to run the tests before my partner came back."
Dr. Fudo walked back into the room to find the generator running and Richard at the controls. "What are you doing Richard?"
"I'm running the tests of course." he explained.
"Did you go back over the data and double checked everything?" asked Dr. Fudo.
"We didn't make a mistake Fudo." Richard said sounding annoyed. "Would you just relax?" Just then the monitors for the generator started to flash a warning sign. Dr. Fudo ran to his computer and started to investigate the problem.
"Just as I thought." Dr. Fudo said. "Richard! Shut down the test before…" Just then the generator started to produce small electric shocks and then just shut down. Both scientists walked up to it and Dr. Fudo said "Before we fry the generator."
"As it turned out your father was right Yusei. I had made a mistake in my calculations and because of it I had just destroyed thousands of dollars' worth of work and research in just five minutes. Our boss was willing to fire me that day had it not been for Dr. Fudo."
Dr. Fudo opened the office door and closed it behind him. His boss was behind the desk in front of him and Richard sitting in the chair in front of the desk looking surprised to see Dr. Fudo.
"Sir you can't fire Richard." said Dr. Fudo.
"And why is that Fudo?" the boss asked.
"Because it wasn't his fault." explained Fudo. "It was mine." Richard just turned around looking at Dr. Fudo with a shocked look on his face. "It seems I made a small miscalculation that I didn't notice before we ran the test. However the generator isn't broken."
"Then why won't the thing start up again?" the boss asked angrily.
"It seems that some wires and circuit boards were fried. I can have them replaced and the generator working by tomorrow." said Dr. Fudo.
"Very well then Fudo do it. But just know that I'm not paying you any overtime."
"Yes sir." Back in the lab Dr. Fudo and dissembled the generator and was hard at work replacing every wire and board that had been destroyed when Richard walked in.
"Why did you do that?" he asked. "Why did you say that it was your fault when you were the one saying to double check everything in the first place?"
Dr. Fudo looked up from the generator and said "Well for one thing I couldn't let you get fired over something that can be fixed too easily. And second of all we're friends aren't we?" Richard looked at Dr. Fudo somewhat shocked but then he smiled and walked forward to join him. "You're right. We are friends."
-Back to the Present-
"After that day we were best friends. Some people would swear we were inseparable. I believe that they were right. The bond we shared isn't that much different than the bond you three have." Richard told the guys. "It was not too long after that day that Dr. Fudo met Yusei's mother and our trio was complete. Those were the greatest days of my life."
"If you guys were such great friends then what happened?" asked Crow.
"I think you already know what happened." said Richard.
"The planetary particles." stated Yusei.
"That's correct." Richard agreed. "During our experiments with the generator Dr. Fudo kept having a sneaking suspicion that we could push it a little further and uncover something with even more energy and potential. So one night your father did just that Yusei. He started the test and by the time he had finished Dr. Fudo had discovered planetary particles, what they could do, and how to harness and control their energy."
-Flashback-
Richard walked into the lab that morning to find that it was in a huge mess. Shattered glass was everywhere and there was Dr. Fudo lying on a table sleeping on what looked like some blue prints to something. Richard walked up to his friend and gave him a hard shake that woke him right up.
He greeted Dr. Fudo by saying "Good morning." Dr. Fudo yawned good mourning back and rubbed his eyes. Richard looked around the lab and said "Must have been one heck of a party. What in the world did you do last night?"
This seemed to bring Dr. Fudo back to his senses and he grabbed Richard by the shoulders. "Richard I've done it!"
"Done what? What are talking about?" he asked sounding confused.
"Remember those particles I was telling you about?" asked Dr. Fudo.
"The planetary particles? Yeah, why?" Then Richards's eyes grew large and he looked at the generator and then back to Dr. Fudo. "You did it! You found them!"
"I did a lot more than just discover them." said Dr. Fudo. "I found what their capable of. The energy those things can produce is astronomical!"
"So that's how all the glass in the lab broke." Richard said. Dr. Fudo pulled his blue prints towards them and both scientists looked at them. "You see if spun around in a circular motion the particles can produce huge and limitless amounts of energy. However the energy could spiral out of control if not regulated."
"How do you plan to solve that problem?" Richard asked.
Dr. Fudo pulled out another schematic and said "This is how. We can build this reactor machine to not only house the particles and spin them but to regulate and control how much power it gives off."
Richard looked at him and said "We?"
Dr. Fudo looked at him and smiled. "Of course we! I can design the reactor but when it comes to actually building the thing I'm going to need some help. And who better than my best friend and partner?"
Richard smiled and said "Alright I'm in. So where do we begin?"
-Present-
"We decided that the best way to get our research known was to present it at the next Kaiba Corp board of directors meeting. So until that time we worked night and day drawing up plans and constructing the model of the reactor Dr. Fudo designed. There were times when we thought we wouldn't finish in time. Luckily for us Yusei's mother knew a thing or two about physics and engineering. She would help out with the construction when one of us was too tired to carry on. Looking back now I'm glad we had her otherwise I don't think we would never have finished in time of the meeting." Richard said. "We went into that meeting in front of everyone. From the board of directors to the heads of every department to the Public Maintenance Bureau. After he had explained everything Dr. Fudo had gotten the okay to build the reactor."
"If you two were on your way to building the reactor what happened to cause you to have this vendetta on him?" asked Jack.
"Humanity is what happened!" shouted Richard. "No matter where we went, no matter who it was we spoke to it seemed the only one getting all the credit for the reactor was Dr. Fudo. Even then I knew I was jealous but he was my friend so I pushed it to the back of my mind and didn't bother with it."
"So what happened?" asked Crow.
"We finished the reactor after several years of work. During that time period Yusei's mother and father had gotten married. I was happy for them, I really was. However my happiness was short lived. One night we were running all the preliminary tests to make sure the reactor would run perfectly for its grand unveiling the next day when it would be switched on. Dr. Fudo wanted to leave early because Mrs. Fudo wasn't feeling well. I told him to go and that I would finish up." Richard said. "That night the Public Maintenance Department showed up at the lab. They told me now that the reactor was built that they were letting some people go, starting with me."
"They fired you as soon as the reactor was finished?" asked Crow.
"Correct. They were firing me and keeping Dr. Fudo because it was all his idea!" shouted Richard. "He ended up with all the credit, all of the parse! And what about me! What about all the work and sweat I put in! Without me the fool wouldn't have been able to do anything! There were press conferences, newspaper articles, and evening news reports. And not anywhere in those articles was I mentioned! Everyone gave all the credit to just Dr. Fudo! In the end I decided that there was only one thing to do."
"What was that?" asked Yusei.
"I would destroy the very city that blindsided all of my work with the very reactor I originally built for them!" he shouted. "No one was going to stop me. At least that is what I thought."
-Flashback-
Richard was at the controls turning the reactor on at full power. Dr. Fudo ran in to find his friend standing in front of the reactor.
"Richard what are you doing?" he asked.
"What does it look like Fudo? I am doing what I promised this city and turning on the reactor, at full capacity." Richard said. "Now the particles are spinning at top speed and energy is building up higher and higher with each passing second." Richard turned to Dr. Fudo and held up a small trigger. "Once it has reached critical mass I shall destroy the reactor and release all the energy within it."
"But if all that energy is released it could destroy the entire city!" explained Dr. Fudo.
"That's the whole idea Fudo! I put my heart into this project and how am I repaid? By have all my affiliation with it removed and fired!"
"Richard please stop this! You can't go off and destroy thousands of innocent lives just because you're mad a few people!"
"I can and I will and there's nothing you can do to stop me."
Dr. Fudo looked at his friend with a series look and said "There is one thing I can do." Richard looked at his friend with and equally stern face. Dr. Fudo pulled a duel disk out from behind him and strapped it to his arm.
"Are you sure you want to do that?" asked Richard as he put a duel disk on as well.
"It's the only way." Dr. Fudo said. Both duelists placed their decks in the disks and shouted "DUEL!"
"The first move is mine!" said Dr. Fudo. "First off I can use Reincarnation of Hope! With it I can send two monsters from my hand to the grave yard in order to draw a strong monster later! Next I summon Junk Synchron! With this cards effect I bring back Speed Warrior and with Quilbolt Hedgehogs effect I can bring him back! Then I special summon Turbo Booster!"
"Going to summon one of your precious Signer Dragons already huh?" asked Richard.
"That's right!" shouted Dr. Fudo. "Now watch as all my monsters tune together to bring forth an even greater might! I synchro summon my Red Dragon Archfiend!"
-Present-
"He summoned Jack's dragon?" asked Carly.
"That's correct." said Richard. "My dear friend loved the story of the Crimson Dragon and the Earthbound Immortals. In fact some of the Immortals names are where he got the names for the control towers and the Reactor itself."
"We already know this." said Crow.
"Do you?" said Richard.
"Yes we do. And we also know that Red Dragon Archfiend, Stardust Dragon, Ancient Fairy Dragon, and Black Rose Dragon were the control towers seals and that they all belonged to Dr. Fudo before us." said Jack. Richard just looked at the guys.
"My father had Junk Synchron in his deck?" asked Yusei.
"Yes Yusei. Your father used a deck very similar to your own." Richard said.
"He did." Yusei said looking at his deck.
"Yes he did. Although he didn't duel very often he was great with a deck." Richard said. Yusei looked back down at his deck in astonishment that his father had built one just like it.
"During the course of your duel Dr. Fudo had managed to summon all his dragons except Stardust. Little did he know that I to had a card that was part of an ancient legend as well." sneered Richard.
"What legend would that be?" asked Yusei.
"The legend of Malevolent." Richard said.
"What's Malevolent?" asked Jack.
"Malevolent is a dragon of untold destructive power. It is said that its power could destroy the entire world within a day or two. The legend speaks of Malevolent destroying the world when it comes face to face with the legendary warrior." Richard explained.
"A legendary warrior?" asked Luna.
"It was said that this warrior held a power similar in strength to Malevolent. The two beings clashed with neither giving an inch. The warrior started to realize that the fight started to take its toll on the land and decided to end it. But he just couldn't destroy the beast." Richard said.
"So what did he do?" asked Leo.
"It is said that once every 7000 years the planets come into alignment with one another and a portal to another dimension is opened. The warrior was able to use his power and seal Malevolent within this alternate world." Richard explained.
"Amazing." said Carly.
"Why do I get the feeling this isn't the end of the story." said Crow.
"Because it isn't." Richard stated. "Before Malevolent was sealed in the other world it is said that the beast left portions of its power behind in six dragons, each of a different attribute."
"Light Dragon Utopia! It's one of those six dragons isn't it?" said Yusei. Richard nodded his head.
"And you used that card on Dr. Fudo?" asked Jack.
"That's right! And this card was almost the end of the great Dr. Fudo!"
-Flashback-
The reactors power was reaching the breaking point. Richard smiled and said "You're not the only one with a dragon from a legend Fudo."
"What do you mean?"
"Do you remember that story about Malevolent we found out?"
"Yes?" said Dr. Fudo.
"Well behold one of the Servants of Malevolent! Come forth Light Dragon Utopia!"
When Utopia rose on to the field Dr. Fudo was stunned. "So it's true! Those cards really do exist!"
"Utopia use your special effect and destroy the Signer Dragons!" commanded Richard. Utopia started to radiant a blinding light and Dr. Fudo's dragons were destroyed. "Now attack him directly!" The blast from Utopia hit Dr. Fudo causing him to scream in pain as he was sent flying backwards. "It's over Fudo! Your precious dragons are gone and in a few moments the reactor will reach critical mass! And when that happens all I have to do is hit the trigger and it's the end of this city!"
Dr. Fudo stood up and looked at his former friend. "As long as there are cards in my deck and so long as I have faith in those cards there is always hope." Then when he drew his card Dr. Fudo smirked "Behold Richard. You're about to see what faith and hope can do."
"What?" he asked.
"First I summon Debris Dragon from my hand. With its effect I shall bring back my Bicular from my graveyard! Then with Double Summon I can bring out Atlantean Pikeman from my hand!" shouted Dr. Fudo.
"But that means you can summon an eight star synchro!" shouted Richard.
"Now I tune Debris Dragon with Bicualr and Atlantean Pikeman! Now the clustering wishes shall form a new star and become the path its light shines upon! I synchro summon, Stardust Dragon!" When Stardust came out the two dragons started to give off some sort of energy which caused the reactor to go even more out of control.
Richard turned to the reactor and asked "What's going on with this thing?"
"It's our dragons!" said Dr. Fudo. "Each one carries with it the force of an even mightier entity. These powers are effecting the planetary particles! Almost like they are combing! Creating even more energy!"
Richard threw back his head and laughed. "Incredible! Now things are starting to get interesting! It's time Fudo. The time has come to match the power of your legendary Crimson Dragon against my mighty Malevolent!"
"If that's what you want then fine by me!" shouted Dr. Fudo. "Go Stardust Dragon!"
"Utopia use your special effect and destroy that pathetic excuse for a dragon!" commanded Richard.
"Ready Stardust?" Dr. Fudo asked. Stardust threw back its head and roared. "Alright then! I activate Stardust Dragons special effect! Victim Sanctuary!"
"What are you planning Fudo?"
"Stardust Dragon can be released and sent to the graveyard in order to negate your monsters special ability and destroy it!" Stardust attacked and so did Utopia. When the two blasts hit both dragons were destroyed. "However Richard at the end of the turn my dragon shall return."
"It won't help you. I'll finish you off on my next turn!" Richard cried.
"There is no next turn!" declared Dr. Fudo. "I use my final face down card Call of the Haunted! This trap can bring one of my monsters back to the field in attack mode!"
"No! It can't be!"
"I chose my Stardust Dragon!" Then a bright light appeared behind Dr. Fudo. "Rise once more Stardust Dragon!"
"No! This is impossible!" screamed Richard.
"Stardust Dragon end this madness! Attack Richards life points directly! Cosmic Flare attack!" screamed Dr. Fudo. When the cosmic flare collided with Richard he was thrown back into the side of the reactor. The holograms started to fade off the field when Richard pulled the trigger form his pocket.
"You may have won the duel Fudo but in the end you lost." he said.
"Not yet I haven't!" said the doctor. Dr. Fudo grabbed Stardust's card off of his duel disk and flung it at Richards's hand. The card hit his hand causing Richard to drop the trigger. Richard went for the trigger when Dr. Fudo said "Don't think about it!" and flung Red Dragon Archfiend at him. Being slapped in the face by Red Dragon stopped Richard long enough for Dr. Fudo to jump into the air to cover some more distance and come back down and punch Richard in the face. The punch knocked Richard out cold and Dr. Fudo ran up to the reactors controls trying reduce the energy. "Spin rotation speed slowing down. Energy levels dropping."
Then the doors to the room burst open and Dr. Fudo's team came in with Sector Security behind them. "Dr. Fudo are you alright?" one of the assistances asked.
Dr. Fudo turned to his team and said "Richards rigged the reactor to explode. I want you to find the explosives and dismantle and destroy them." His entire team said "Yes sir!" and ran off. Richard started to come to when an officer said that he was under arrest. As he was being taken away Richard cried out "This isn't over Fudo! You and your family shall feel my wrath! And I shall annihilate this city!"
Dr. Fudo faced his former friend after he picked Stardust and Red Dragon off the ground and said "Not if I can help it. I shall defend this city and its inhabitants with my very life."
-Present-
"Not long after that Rex and Roman Goodwin would join Dr. Fudo's research team." said Richard. "And I believe you know what happened then."
"Yeah we know." said Luna.
"So what happened to you?" asked Akiza.
"I was tried, convicted, and given a lifelong sentence in the Facility." said Richard. "Fortunately for my I was smarter than my captors and I was able to escape before I reached the Facility. After that I dedicate my life to one thing. Satisfying my thirst for vengeance. I would have revenge against this city and my former friend. And I decided with the power of Malevolent I could do just that! So I began traveling the world, searching for those who held the other dragon servants and ask if they would help me in my conquest. And I did find them all." Then there were footsteps being heard and then surrounding the room on what appeared to be a balcony was the other five villains. "I would like you to meet my new friends Yusei."
Yusei saw Alexander and said "You're that guy with the Apollo card!"
"That's right Yusei." said Alexander. "I see that you're all healed up from the little accident you had at the end of our duel."
"Hello Akiza." said Jessica.
"Jessica!" said Akiza.
"Just hanging around Akiza?" asked Jessica. One guy on the other side of the room started laughing manically. Jessica shouted at him to shut up.
"What I thought it was funny seeing as how she and the others are hanging on our wall in chains." said Michael.
"Who the heck are you?" asked Crow.
"My names Michael if you must know Crow." he said.
"You were there that night I beat that other guy." said Jack.
"Oh you mean Andrew here." chuckled Michael. Then Andrew stepped out next to Michael and looked down at Jack.
"Impossible!" cried out Carly.
"I know I beat you." said Jack. "You should have been sent to the shadows."
"You of all people should know that power such as this can't be destroyed that easily Jack!" said Andrew.
"So who's she?" asked Yusei indicating to the blonde haired girl.
"I am Ashley, Yusei." she said.
"You see Yusei! Just as you six Signers hold your very own dragon as do we!" proclaimed Richard. "However when this duel is over it is our dragons that will have concurred yours! I draw!" (Richard lifepoints-2100, hand-5/Yusei, Jack, Crow lifepoints-2900, hands-Jack-0, Yusei-2, Crow-0)
"Light Dragon Utopia attack Crows Blackwing Fane the Steel Chain with Light Stream Blast!" commanded Richard.
"I don't think so Richard!" screamed Crow. "I use the Negate Attack trap card! Just like its name says this card negates your attack and ends your battle phase!"
"Nice work Crow!" said Yusei.
"Let's see how nice it was after I use this spell card!" shouted Richard. "I activate Tremendous Fire! Next I use the quick play spell Double Damage!"
"What on earth do those cards do?" asked Jack.
"First off Tremendous Fire will deal me 500 points in damage but it will take away 1000 of your life points." Richard sneered.
"1000 points?" Crow said shocked.
"No Crow not just 1000." said Yusei.
"That's right Yusei! Thanks to Double Damage any effect damage is doubled until the end of the turn!" Richard said.
"So that means he'll be taking a 1000 points in damage and we'll end up taking 2000!" Jack said sounding shocked. Then a ball of flames surround Yusei, Jack, and Crow. The ball exploded sending them flying again, tumbling backwards on their sides.
"Brace yourselves guys." said Akiza to Leo, Luna, and Carly. "With them taking 2000 points of damage this may hurt a little." Then the electric current flowed down through their chains and shocked them all again. Each one of them crying in pain. Carly, Luna, and Akiza passed out. Leo was the only one left half conscious. Yusei shouted for him but all Leo said was "Yusei win this." Yusei, Jack, and Crow had looks of horror on their faces as they looked at their friends hanging unconscious on the wall by the shock chains.
"Behold my friends!" Richard shouted. "Today you shall all witness a glorious day! The day in which I destroy the great Signers and their almighty Crimson Dragon!" Then he let out an evil laugh. After he heard this something started to happen to Yusei and the others. Their marks started to glow an even darker red and they were emitting a red aura from their bodies. When each one of them looked at Richard he noticed that all of their eyes were burning the same color of red that their marks were.
"You evil snake!" said Yusei with a deep angry voice.
"You aren't going to get away with harming our friends!" said Crow in the same kind of tune Yusei had.
"That's right!" said Jack in the same angry tone. "You can duel us and try to kill us all day long, but when you threaten innocent lives and those of our friends you've gone too far!" Richard looked at them with a certain uneasy feeling.
"It's my turn Richard!" said Yusei as he held up his duel disk. Then there were flashing bolts of red lightning and appearing behind Yusei, Jack, and Crow was the Crimson Dragon.
"The Crimson Dragon!" shouted Alexander.
"It actually showed!" said Jessica.
Yusei turned around to face the dragon and said "Welcome back old friend!"
"You sure took your sweet time getting here!" said Jack.
"But now that you are how's about helping us end this?" Crow asked. The Crimson Dragon let out one of its high pitched cry's. "Well that sounds like a yes to me! Yusei it's time to rock and roll! My Blackwing is all yours"
"Yusei my part is all set as well! Now use my power and kick this duel into overdrive!" Jack said.
"Alright then let's do this!" Yusei screamed. All three duelists raised their right arms in the air. The marks disappeared and then the entire mark of the Crimson Dragon appeared on Yusei's back. The top card of Yusei's deck started to glow when he was ready to draw. Yusei took hold of the card and said while drawing he shouted "It's time to REV IT UP!" After he drew Yusei said "From my hand I summon the Majestic Dragon tuner monster!"
"The Majestic Dragon?" screamed Richard.
"Something tells me we should leave!" said Michael. All the other villains agreed and turned around and left.
"I reveal my face down trap card!" cried Jack. "Descending Lost Star! This shall revive my Red Dragon Archfiend from the graveyard as a level seven monster!"
"No! It can't be possible! I won't loss to another Fudo, Yusei! shouted Richard.
"You don't have much of a say in that matter Richard!" shouted Yusei.
"LET"S GO!" shouted Jack, Crow and Yusei. Then all three of their monsters took to the air.
"I tune my level two Blackwing Fane the Steel Chain…"said Crow.
"And my level seven Red Dragon Archfiend…"said Jack.
"With my level one Majestic Dragon! "shouted Yusei. Then all three of them said "POLISHED, LONE LIGHT, BECOME THE TRUE HIGH RULER AND ILLUMINATE THE EARTH! WE SYNCHRO SUMMON THE MAJESTIC RED DRAGON!"
"The Majestic Red Dragon?" Richard said sounding afraid. "It doesn't matter! By using Utopia's effect I shall destroy the Crimson Dragons miracle!"
"Not this dragon you won't!" shouted Crow. "Majestic Red Dragon's special ability can negate all the effects that one of your monsters have until the end of the turn!"
"WHAT!" screamed Richard.
"And that's not all!" said Yusei. "We've still got one more effect! Show him Jack!"
Jack nodded and said "Go Majestic Red Dragon activate Power Gain!" Then the dragon shot a stream of white light at Utopia. The stream hit Utopia and Majestic Red Dragon breathed it back. "Majestic Red Dragon can duplicate and absorb all the attack points of one of our opponent's monsters once a turn."
"But Utopia has 3500 points! But that means…."started Richard.
"That means our dragon gains an attack point boost of 3500 points!" said Yusei. "Putting our beast at 7500 attack points!"
"NO! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" screamed Richard.
Yusei, Jack, and Crow cried out "MAJESTIC RED DRAGON ATTACK LIGHT DRAGON UTOPIA! ULTIMATE POWER FORCE!" Majestic Red Dragon came barreling down to Utopia with all of its might to obliterate the beast. Richard was screaming in pain but the guys had lost sight of him in the light. Then the Majestic Red Dragon came in contact with Utopia and Utopia was destroyed. But upon Utopia's destruction there was a huge blast of energy from the attack. This blast sent Yusei, Jack, and Crow soaring through the air. The blast had also broke the chains holding Akiza, Carly, Leo, and Luna up and sent them flying as well. Then the blast shot through the warehouse roof and the place blew up, sending pieces of itself flying all over the harbor area.
The sun had set on the wreckage that use to be a warehouse. Inside the debris Jack, Crow, and Yusei began to sit up having been knocked out be the Majestic Red Dragons attack blast. Jack sat up and rubbed the back of his head. "Do we know how to end a duel with a bang or what?" he asked Crow and Yusei.
Crow sat up holding his shoulder and said "Well I guess we really raised the roof in this place."
"I think you mean 'lowered the roof' Crow" said Jack. Crow looked around and noticed that there wasn't even much of a warehouse left.
"I guess you're Jack." he said. Yusei sat up and looked around. He saw Jack and Crow next to him laughing at their lame joke when the thought hit him.
"Where's Akiza and the others!" he said. Jack and Crow stopped laughing and stood up too and started to look. Crow ran across their duel runners back at where the entrance to the warehouse should have been. "Well at least our runners are still in one piece." he said.
Jack was lifting up some sheets of wood when he heard a loud moan. He lifted up two more boards and found Akiza, Carly, Luna, and Leo underneath still unconscious.
"Yusei! Crow! Get over here I found them!" Jack shouted. Yusei and Crow ran over to where Jack was standing. Jack had already removed the remints of the shock chains and threw them as hard as he could out towards the sea. Yusei ran up and took Akiza into his arms and tried to wake her up. Jack did the same with Carly and Crow tried to wake Leo and Luna up.
Carly woke up and looked up at Jack. "Jack? Is that you?" she asked.
"Yes Carly it's me." Jack said.
Akiza came around too and looked at Yusei. "Are you alright?" Yusei asked.
"I was going to ask you the same thing?" she said.
Crow had woke Luna up and was trying to wake up Leo. "Yusei? Jack? Crow?" Luna asked.
"Hey you okay?" asked Yusei.
"I think so." Luna said.
"That's great." said Crow. "Now if only we could get your brother to say that he's okay." Leo started to wake up and noticed Crow standing over top of him.
"Crow is that you?" he asked.
"Yes Leo it's me." said Crow.
Leo looked at Crow and then Jack and Yusei. Then as Crow helped him up Leo said "The ending to your guy's duel…was epic!"
Jack started to laugh out loud. "It figures that the first words out of Leo's mouth would have something to do with our duel." After Jack said this everybody was laughing. Then Leo fell to his knees breathing hard.
"Are you alright?" asked Akiza.
"Yeah I'll be fine. Guess I just been shocked too much today that's all." he said smiling.
"Leo that wasn't that funny." said Luna.
"Come on." said Yusei. "Let's get you guys home." Yusei picked up Akiza and was carrying her to where Crow found the runners.
Jack picked up Carly and told her "Your coming home with us Carly."
"Okay with me if it's fine with Yusei." she said.
Yusei looked back and said "I think it's for the best. After all now that the bad guys found out they can use you as bait I don't think it's wise to leave you alone right now."
"Speaking of the bad guys," Leo started. "what happened to that Richard guy?"
Everyone stopped and looked at each other. Nobody really did know if he survived or not. "He should have ended up in the shadows after he lost right?" asked Luna.
"Luna's right!" said Akiza. "After all that's what happens when you lose a shadow duel."
Then Carly noticed that Jacks coat sleeve had been ripped enough to where his arm was exposed. "Jack your mark! It's still there!" Carly said. Jack looked at his arm and so did the other Signers.
"Hey mines still here too." said Leo.
"Looks like all of our marks are sticking around this time." Crow said.
"But why?" asked Luna. "The other times they showed up they disappeared after the duel was won."
"Luna's right." Akiza said. "How come their not vanishing this time?"
"Because we're Signers again." said Yusei.
"Yusei's right." said Jack. "The Crimson Dragon took back our marks before because our job of defending the world as Signers was over. Now that these marks are back…"
"It means that the world is in danger of being destroyed again." Yusei finished. "And we must band together as Signers once again in order to save it and restore peace." Everyone nodded in agreement with Yusei and got on the runners and headed home.
About half an hour after Yusei and the others left some other people were sifting through the debris. "Well so much for using this place as our hideout anymore." said Ashley.
"Oh man would you look at this mess!" said Michael. "This so the last time we invite Team5DS over for anything! They are just messy house guests!"
"Gives a whole new meaning to bring the house down doesn't it Michael?" asked Jessica. Michael laughed in agreement.
"I don't see what's so funny about this." said Alexander. "I hope this was worth all the trouble of trying to bring back their marks?"
"Oh it was worth it my friends." said a familiar voice. Richard had walked up behind Alexander and examined the spot where the duel took place. Andrew had walked up to Richard and handed him something.
"Your deck Master Richard." said Andrew. Richard took his deck and pulled out and looked at his Utopia card.
"It's a good thing you decided to let the duelbot battle in your place sir." said Michael.
"Yes Michael I agree with you." said Richard. He walked over to where the robot laid. He noticed how the body had been scorched by the Majestic Red Dragons attack. "Otherwise this could have been me."
Richard turned back to his team and said "Fear not my friends. True we lost our main base of operations but our mission was a success. Yusei and his friends are Signers again!" Everyone let out a small cheer. "Now the true battle begins! Soon the planets will align once more and everything will be in place for Malevolent's release into this world! By the time the Kaiba Corp Grand Prix is over with the Crimson Dragon and its Signers will be destroyed along with the precious city the try to defend!" Richard let out a loud and evil laugh.
