Chapter 51: Handless Fake

Far away into Satellite, unaware of Julian's fate, Yusei continued onwards towards the Giant tower and his confrontation with Kalin. Riding behind him were Crow, on Blackbird, and Trudge, Leo and Luna, in the car.

The tower came into view, and Kalin observed them coming from before it, astride his Duel Runner. With a dark laugh, he revved the engine and shot forwards towards Yusei. The two rode towards each other, threatening to collide, until they skidded sideways at the last second, stopping parallel to each other.

"It's now time for us to settle the scores!" Kalin said with a maniacal smirk. "Through the last Duel of Team Satisfaction, the one that was never completed back then!"

"Last Duel…" Yusei murmured, remembering. "Back then…"

He recalled the assembled members of Team Satisfaction standing in a desolate, ruined building in Satellite, while the rain poured down outside. Kalin walked over and threw his arms around his teammates with a sadistic smirk.

"I'm glad you're all here!" he laughed, stalking over to a window and glaring out. "This is the definite last Duel of Team Satisfaction!"

Outside, a virtual army of Sector Security stood assembled, armed with Duel Disks, guns and Duel Runners.

Later, the team had split up and the blood-stained Kalin was standing over the dead Security officer, when, Yusei tackled him from the side. The two fell to the ground in a whirling heap of fists and kicking feet.

Finally, he remembered how Kalin had been dragged into a Security paddy wagon, watching the Security captain pat Yusei on the shoulder.

"Yusei!" the pale-blue haired boy screamed, thrashing against his Security captors before being hurled into the wagon…

"Its time to get this started!" Kalin declared, throwing off his cloak as his Giant Mark blazed with energy, the corresponding Nazca Line forming on the earth around them in purple fire. "This will be the last Duel! I shall kick you into the inferno of vengeance from the depths of death!"

"I'll save you, Kalin!" Yusei replied. The two activated the Duel Mode on their Runners.

"Duel Mode engaged, autopilot standing by, Speed World activated," the Runners chimed as Speed World materialized around them. "Ready… set… Duel!"

"Let's ride!"

Yusei 8000LP 0SPC/Kalin 8000LP 0SPC

"I'll take the first turn!" Kalin declared, shoving Yusei's Runner aside with his own. "I set a monster in defense mode!" The reversed monster appeared before him. "Now I place a card face-down and end my turn!" The reversed card appeared as well.

Yusei 8000LP 0SPC/Kalin 8000LP 0SPC

"My turn!" Yusei declared (Yusei 8000LP 1SPC) (Kalin 8000LP 1SPC).

"I discard Level Eater from my hand to Special Summon Quickdraw Synchron!" He placed the monster into his Graveyard and the cowboy-theme Synchron appeared, drawing its pistols (ATK: 700). "Now I activate Level Eater's effect, reducing Quickdraw Synchron's Level by one to Special Summon it from the Graveyard!" Quickdraw Synchron's Level Stars appeared over it, before one suddenly shattered (Level 4) and the star-marked ladybug leapt from it (ATK: 600).

"Now I summon Shield Warrior!" The shield-bearing warrior leapt from a glowing portal, brandishing his spear (ATK: 800). "I Tune Quickdraw Synchron to Level Eater and Shield Warrior to Synchro Summon…!"

Quickdraw Synchron's project whirred into life and the five Synchron cards appeared before it, the cowboy shooting through Junk Synchron before fading into four Synchro Gates that encircled Level Eater and Shield Warrior, reducing them to four glowing stars that collided in a bright flash…

"Clustering fighting souls will awaken the raging wicked God! Become the path its light shines upon! Synchro Summon! Obliterate, Junk Destroyer!" Yusei chanted.

With an almighty roar, Junk Destroyer appeared from the explosion of energy (ATK: 2600). "Now Junk Destroyer's effect activates, destroying a number of your cards equal to the number of his Synchro Materials, and that's all your cards! Tidal Energy!" With a roar, power exploded from two of the mighty Synchro's fists…

"I chain my Trap Card – Full Salvo!" Kalin retorted. "By discarding my whole hand, you take 200 points of damage for each card I discarded!" The four cards in his hand glowed with fiery energy and shot forwards, slamming into Yusei and exploding against his Runner.

(Yusei 7200LP 1SPC)

Then the fiery energy swept into Full Salvo and the face-down monster, shattering them both.

"The monster you just destroyed was Infernity Signaler, and when it gets destroyed and sent to the Graveyard while my hand is empty, I can Special Summon a Level Four or below Infernity monster from my Deck, like Infernity Guardian!" Kalin declared. The phantom of a bizarre Native American style Infernity with pallid white skin appeared, puffing smoke rings from a pipe. The rings formed a black sigil in the sky as Infernity Signaler vanished and another monster took its place, a flaming skull surrounded by a horseshoe-shaped shield (DEF: 1700).

"Junk Destroyer, attack his Infernity Guardian with Destroy Knuckle!" Yusei called. Junk Destroyer surged forwards, smashing its fist into Infernity Guardian, but the mighty blow bounced off.

"While my hand is empty, Infernity Guardian can't be destroyed!" Kalin explained with a smirk.

"I end my turn with two face-down cards!" Yusei called, throwing the cards into his Disk. They appeared to either side of his Runner.

Yusei 7200LP 1SPC/Kalin 8000LP 1SPC

"My draw!" Kalin declared darkly (Yusei 7200LP 2SPC) (Kalin 8000LP 2SPC).

"I activate Speed Spell – Angel Baton!" He pulled two cards from his Deck and immediately placed Speed Spell – The End of Storm into his Graveyard. "Now I summon Infernity Mirage!" The tribal-looking Infernity with the pallid skin appeared, wailing (ATK: 0). "I activate the effect of Infernity Mirage, Releasing it to get Infernity Destroyer and Infernity Shaman from my Graveyard!"

Mirage faded into spheres of darkness that formed into Infernity Destroyer (ATK: 2300) and a shaman-style monster with pale white skin, wearing black robes and a headdress of raven feathers (ATK: 1500).

"Neither of them are strong enough to beat my Junk Destroyer," Yusei pointed out.

"That would be the case, except my hand is empty, so Infernity Shaman boosts my Infernity monsters by 500 points apiece!" Kalin laughed. Infernity Shaman (ATK: 2000), Infernity Guardian (DEF: 2200) and Infernity Destroyer (ATK: 2800) gained auras of dark energy. "Infernity Destroyer, attack Junk Destroyer with Hell Devastator!"

Infernity Destroyer gave a mighty roar and surged forwards, smashing Junk Destroyer apart with blows of its mighty fists.

(Yusei 7000LP 2SPC)

"And because it destroyed a monster in battle while my hand was empty, you're slammed with 1600 more damage!" Kalin continued. Yusei cried out in pain as a towering hellish inferno erupted around him.

(Yusei 5400LP 1SPC)

"Infernity Shaman, attack him directly with Hell Prominence!" Infernity Shaman chanted darkly and a blast of flames shot from its hands, slamming into Yusei.

(Yusei 3400LP 0SPC)

"I activate the Trap Card, Revival Ticket!" Yusei shouted. "By destroying a card on my field for each of my monsters destroyed in battle this turn, those monsters come back and I gain Life Points equal to all the Battle Damage I took this turn!" His face-down card shattered and Junk Destroyer reappeared in a flash of energy (ATK: 2600) as white aura surrounded him.

(Yusei 5600LP 0SPC)

"Plus, since my face-down card was Limiter Overload, I get to Special Summon Speed Warrior from my Deck!" he continued. Speed Warrior skated onto the field beside Junk Destroyer (ATK: 900).

"I end my turn!" the disgusted Kalin shouted angrily.

Yusei 5600LP 0SPC/Kalin 8000LP 2SPC

"I draw!" Yusei called, pulling the card from his Deck (Yusei 5600LP 1SPC) (Kalin 8000LP 3SPC).

"I summon Necro Linker in attack mode!" A skeletal fiend clad in dull robes of brown and wine-red appeared, wielding a crooked staff (ATK: 0). "By Releasing Necro Linker, I can Special Summon a Tuner Monster from my Graveyard, but that monster can't be used as Synchro Material this turn!" Necro Linker faded into light that reformed into Quickdraw Synchron (ATK: 700). "Now I throw a card out face-down!" The reversed card appeared before him.

"Junk Destroyer, attack Infernity Shaman with Destroy Knuckle!" Junk Destroyer surged forwards and obliterated Infernity Shaman with a savage punch.

(Kalin 7400LP 3SPC)

"I end my turn there!" Yusei finished as Infernity Destroyer (ATK: 2300) and Infernity Guardian (DEF: 1700) lost their auras.

Yusei 5600LP 1SPC/Kalin 7400LP 3SPC

"I draw, traitor!" Kalin snarled (Yusei 5600LP 2SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 4SPC).

"I place a card face-down!" The reversed card appeared. "Now, Infernity Destroyer, attack Quickdraw Synchron with Hell Devastator!" Infernity Destroyer surged forwards with a roar…

"I activate the Trap Card, Urgent Tuning, letting me Synchro Summon in the Battle Phase!" Yusei shouted. "I Tune Quickdraw Synchron to Speed Warrior to Synchro Summon…!" As the Trap lifted up, Quickdraw Synchron's projector activated and it rapidly fired through Nitro Synchron's card before splitting into five Synchro Gates that encircled Speed Warrior, reducing him to two glowing stars that collided in a flash of flame…

"Clustering minds will now become a new force! Become the path its light shines upon! Synchro Summon! Blaze on, Nitro Warrior!"

With an almighty roar, Nitro Warrior exploded onto the field (ATK: 2800).

"I end my Battle Phase!" Kalin snarled. "And my turn with it!"

Yusei 5600LP 2SPC/Kalin 7400LP 4SPC

"I draw!" Yusei called (Yusei 5600LP 3SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 5SPC). As he looked down at the card, his memories started to come back again.

He remembered how cracks had formed between the members of Team Satisfaction, cracks that had widened to drive them apart.

Team Satisfaction had dominated Satellite, becoming cinders looking for the next goal to achieve. Yusei recalled walking down the streets of Satellite and seeing Jack, Crow and Kalin, then he remembered how Kalin stalked the streets of Satellite in search of enemies, like he didn't want to admit a festival was over. Once, the deranged leader had even attacked Julian after he had suggested that Kalin should just accept his victory, Kalin retorting angrily that Team Satisfaction was never finished, that Satellite was full of enemies and that if Julian kept going that way, he'd end up as one of them. It had taken the efforts of Yusei, Jack, Crow and Kelsey together to prevent the argument descending into a potentially fatal fight.

"We'll be hunting the last stragglers of Team Insect today!" Kalin had once announced, spreading his blacked-in map onto the table. "Our conquest isn't over, and anyone with a Duel Disk is an enemy!" Crow had just sighed.

Later that night, they had fought those last stragglers and defeated them with ease, but when Crow discovered that one of his 'opponents' was a young boy, he had ordered the kid to leave rather than Duel him.

But a while later they had heard a scream and when they investigated, they found Kalin standing over the defeated boy, before crushing the kid's Duel Disk under his foot and giving a dark, sadistic laugh. Then he prepared to stamp down on the boy's head, but was tackled aside by Crow.

"Get out of here!" Crow yelled to the kid, as Kalin kicked him off fiercely.

"What was that about?" the angry leader snarled as he stood, the boy running away. He moved to punch Crow in the stomach, but before he could, a blow to the back of the head knocked him reeling forwards.

"I told you, Kalin," Julian said as Jack ran up. "Team Satisfaction has done what it set out to do. Look at what you just tried to do." He turned away in disgust. "Look what you've let yourself become." With that, he stalked away angrily.

"Dueling was supposed to be fun," Crow said to Yusei darkly. "None of us have the right to take that away! I'm done with this crap!" With that, he stormed away down the street after Julian, and Jack soon followed.

"We're supposed to be friends and a team!" Kalin roared after them, but they didn't react…

"I set a card face-down!" the Tail Signer declared, the reversed card appearing. "Now, Nitro Warrior, attack Infernity Destroyer with Dynamite Crunch!" Nitro Warrior's engine ignited and it surged towards Infernity Destroyer…

"I activate the Trap Card, Infernity Force!" Kalin replied darkly. Nitro Warrior shattered into embers, then Infernity Shaman reappeared (DEF: 1500 - 2000). Infernity Destroyer (ATK: 2800) and Infernity Guardian (DEF: 2200) gained their dark auras again.

"Junk Destroyer, attack Infernity Shaman with Destroy Knuckle!" Yusei shouted. Junk Destroyer surged forwards and obliterated Infernity Shaman with a savage punch. Infernity Destroyer (ATK: 2300) and Infernity Guardian (DEF: 1700) weakened once more. "Now I end my turn!"

Yusei 5600LP 3SPC/Kalin 7400LP 5SPC

"I draw!" Kalin shouted, drawing as the Runners sped up (Yusei 5600LP 4SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 6SPC).

"I activate Speed Spell – Power Baton, letting me send a monster from my Deck to the Graveyard to have one of my monsters gain attack points equal to the attack points of the sent monster until the End Phase, but I can't draw in my next Draw Phase!" He placed Infernity Dwarf into the Graveyard and Infernity Destroyer glowed with fiery energy (ATK: 3100). "Infernity Destroyer, attack Junk Destroyer with Hell Devastator!"

Infernity Destroyer surged forwards and with a mighty blow from its fist, Junk Destroyer was shattered once more.

(Yusei 5200LP 4SPC)

"I activate the Trap Card, Desperate Treasure!" Yusei called. "Because all of your monsters have higher attack then mine, I can draw two cards at the cost of not summoning or changing my monsters' battle positions this turn!" He drew twice.

"Now Infernity Destroyer's effect activates!" Kalin continued as the hellish flames erupted around his opponent.

(Yusei 3600LP 3SPC)

"I end my turn there!" the Giant Dark Signer finished with a sadistic smirk. Infernity Destroyer stopped glowing (ATK: 2300).

Yusei 3600LP 3SPC/Kalin 7400LP 6SPC

"I draw!" Yusei shouted as their Runners sped up again (Yusei 3600LP 4SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 7SPC).

"I activate Speed Spell – Swift Healer!" he called out. "This lets me reduce my Speed Counters by any amount to get back Life Points equal to the amount I lost, and I'll lose all four of my counters!" His Runner slowed down immensely as he shone with white aura (Yusei 5600LP 0SPC). "Now I activate Speed Spell – Angel Blessing!" He drew three more cards.

"I summon Trident Warrior!" In a blast of crackling energy, the sea-green-armored warrior appeared, brandishing his trident (ATK: 1800). "Now I use his effect to Special Summon Junk Synchron from my hand!" Junk Synchron appeared beside Trident Warrior (ATK: 1300). "I Tune my Level Three Junk Synchron, to my Level Four Trident Warrior to Synchro Summon…!"

Junk Synchron pulled its ripcord and faded into three Synchro Gates that encircled Trident Warrior, reducing him to four glowing stars that collided in a flash of lightning…

"Clustering shouts will become a silver arrow and split the air! Become the path its light shines upon! Synchro Summon! Come, Junk Archer!"

In a flash of energy, Junk Archer descended, notching an arrow to its bow (ATK: 2300).

"Now I end my turn with a face-down!" Yusei finished.

Yusei 5600LP 0SPC/Kalin 7400LP 7SPC

"My turn!" Kalin declared, but he couldn't draw due to using Speed Spell – Power Baton (Yusei 5600LP 1SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 8SPC).

"I end my turn!"

Yusei 5600LP 1SPC/Kalin 7400LP 8SPC

"I draw!" Yusei cried, pulling the card from his Deck (Yusei 5600LP 2SPC) (Kalin 7400LP 9SPC).

"I summon Changer Synchron!" In a flash of energy, a short heroic robot with bladed wings appeared, a switch on top of its head (ATK: 0). "Now I Tune the Level One Changer Synchron, to the Level Seven Junk Archer… Synchro Summon…!"

Changer Synchron soared into the pitch-dark heavens and descended as a Synchro Gate to encircle the rising Junk Archer, who closed its eyes as it split into seven glowing stars that aligned perfectly and exploded with a flash of emerald light…

"Clustering wishes will become a new shining star! Become the path its light shines upon! Synchro Summon! Take flight, Stardust Dragon!"

With an almighty roar, Stardust Dragon descended, shining with its heavenly grace… (ATK: 2500)

"So there's your headliner again!" Kalin laughed. "You're like a broken record, Yusei, playing the same old moves over and over!"

"If it isn't broken, it doesn't need fixing," Yusei replied. "That's a lesson I learned when I was building my Runners. Sometimes I'd look at something and think it needed improving, but I learned that if what I had was good enough to do the job, it was perfectly good." Another memory came to him…

"Kalin, you can't expect me to talk to Jack and Crow for you after what you almost did!" Julian snapped at the blue-haired boy. "I'm not going to be your messenger boy!"

"You owe your peace and quiet to us!" Kalin retorted. "If it weren't for Team Satisfaction, these streets would still be infested with criminals!"

"That may be, but there's a point where the line is drawn… and you crossed that line," Julian said. "I'll see you around, Yusei." With a curt nod to the future Signer, he left the hideout.

A few days later, the two stood in their hideout and watched as a large group of Securities astride Duel Runners rode into the Satellite.

"Sector Security's deploying a load of those vehicles," Kalin informed his friend.

"Officers!" the Security captain called. "Show the Duel Gangs the power these Duel Runners hold! Use your dueling to judge them!" Kalin smirked as the Securities rode deep into the Satellite…

"They're tearing Satellite apart!"

"Did you ever consider whose fault that was?" Julian's reply came. "Who took down any chance we might have had of stopping Security?"

"You can Duel!" Kalin snarled. "You, Kelsey… you two can fight back against them!" Julian shook his head.

"No," he said firmly. "I'm not putting her or myself at risk like that. If we keep our heads down, Security will leave us in peace." He turned to leave.

"Coward!" Kalin barked.

"Its better to be a coward and alive, than brave and dead," Julian replied, walking out…

"Because I used Changer Synchron for a Synchro Summon, I can change the battle position of one of your monsters!" Yusei declared, as Infernity Guardian glowed (ATK: 1200). "Stardust Dragon, attack Infernity Guardian with Cosmic Flare!" Stardust roared and unleashed the vibrant, shimmering stream of fire from its maw into Infernity Guardian, which was still protected by its effect.

(Kalin 6100LP 8SPC)

"Now I activate the Trap Card, Synchro Halo!" Yusei continued as the Trap lifted up. "Because my Synchro Monster attacked your monster and didn't destroy it, Synchro Halo doubles its points and lets it attack again!" Stardust Dragon shone with incredible power (ATK: 5000). "Stardust Dragon, attack again with Cosmic Flare!"

A second blast of fire smashed into Infernity Guardian before striking Kalin himself, who snarled in pain.

(Kalin 2300LP 5SPC)

"Now I end my turn!" the Tail Signer finished. Stardust Dragon stopped glowing (ATK: 2500) as he continued to remember.

"I've finally found Team Satisfaction's final enemy!" Kalin had declared several hours after Julian had left. "Only by crushing Sector Security will our conquest of Satellite be complete! Go and get Jack and Crow, so the four of us can defeat them together!"

"Kalin, this is suicide!" Yusei protested.

"Are you chickening out?" the blue-haired leader snarled.

"Kalin… I'm sorry, but you'll have to do this on your own," Yusei finally said, walking away…

Yusei 5600LP 2SPC/Kalin 2300LP 5SPC

"I draw!" Kalin snarled, tearing the card from his Deck (Yusei 5600LP 3SPC) (Kalin 2300LP 6SPC)

"I Release Infernity Destroyer and Infernity Guardian to Advance Summon Dark Tuner Nightmare Hand!" Destroyer and Guardian faded away into rainbow light that reformed into the golem-like Dark Tuner (ATK: 0). "Now because Nightmare Hand was Normal Summoned, I can Special Summon a Level Two or below Dark-Attribute monster from my hand or Graveyard, like Infernity Dwarf!" The dwarf appeared, looking frightened at the sight of Nightmare Hand (ATK: 800).

"I Dark Tune my Nightmare Hand, to my Infernity Dwarf to Dark Synchro Summon…!" Nightmare Hand split into ten glowing stars that stabbed into Infernity Dwarf, who screamed in agony as the stars seared into his body. The stars reduced him to a framework containing two more stars, and four of the stars collided, shattering to nothing. As darkness poured forth, the eight stars left burst from the Dark Synchro Summon as coal-black orbs of negative energy that orbited the Dark Synchro Summon…

"When the curtain of darkness descends down, the eyes of the underworld will open! Swoop down, darkness! Dark Synchro! Show yourself, One-Hundred Eye Dragon!"

With an almighty roar, the Dark Synchro Summon split open and One-Hundred Eye Dragon burst from it to hover over Kalin menacingly (ATK: 3000). The sight of the beast reminded Yusei of its incredible power in their last Duel, but also of its weakness…

"One-Hundred Eye Dragon, attack his Stardust Dragon with Infinity Sight Stream!" One-Hundred Eye Dragon roared and blasted the ray of dark energies from its maw right into Stardust Dragon…

(Yusei 5100LP 3SPC)

But when the flames faded, Stardust still stood strong.

"By removing Shield Warrior in my Graveyard from play, a monster I control isn't destroyed by one battle!" Yusei called, pocketing the card. One-Hundred Eye Dragon roared in fury at this trickery.

"I end my turn!" the disgusted Kalin snarled.

Yusei 5100LP 3SPC/Kalin 2300LP 6SPC

"I draw!" Yusei called out (Yusei 5100LP 4SPC) (Kalin 2300LP 7SPC).

"I set a card and end my turn!" The reversed card appeared beside him.

Yusei 5100LP 4SPC/Kalin 2300LP 7SPC

"I draw!" Kalin declared, ripping the card from his Deck fiercely (Yusei 5100LP 5SPC) (Kalin 2300LP 8SPC).

"I place a card face-down!" The reversed card appeared. "Now, One-Hundred Eye Dragon, attack Stardust Dragon with Infinity Sight Stream!"

One-Hundred Eye Dragon roared and unleashed the blast of fire and energy from its maw towards Stardust again, the attack smashing through Yusei's dragon and shattering it like glass…

(Yusei 4600LP 5SPC)

Then Infernity Destroyer appeared in the dragon's main eye, and Yusei cried out in pain as the hellish inferno erupted around him.

(Yusei 3000LP 4SPC)

"I end my turn!" Kalin laughed. "Face it, Yusei, you're beaten! Without your dragon, you can't possibly defeat even my One-Hundred Eye Dragon, let alone my Earthbound Immortal!"
