"Mr. Sayer, your guests have arrived." said a young psychic duelist.

"Good, let them in and show them to the training hall. I just have one thing to finish here and then I'll personally give them the tour of the building." Sayer said calmly.

"Of course sir." the young psychic duelist said before walking out of the room.

"Sayer, do you think this will work?" Akiza asked looking at the device in front of him.

"I can't say for certain, his power is different from yours Akiza, we'll just have to wait and see." Sayer said. "Now then, we should give our guests a pleasant welcome."

"Yes Sayer." Akiza said calmly.

"Alright Sayer, we're here so how do you plan on helping us?" Jack asked suspiciously.

"I have a few things in mind, for example as with Akiza I'm looking into a way to help Yusei Fudo control that power of his." Sayer said calmly. "I haven't finalized it but it may be the key to preventing the disaster that Goodwin warned you about."

"Hold on, how can we trust that you're not going to just try and brainwash him or something?" Leo asked.

"I assure you, even if I wanted to do something like that I couldn't." Sayer said calmly. "My powers don't work like that."

"Alright, we'll believe you for now." Jack said. "Besides compared to Goodwin you're at least not hiding anything from us, at least that we know so far."

"Jack he isn't hiding anything, I told you Sayer honestly wants to help us." Akiza said defensively.

"Sorry Akiza, but after Goodwin I'll have to judge Sayer's words with his deck." Jack said.

"Of course, though this match is unofficial. It wouldn't be fair for the champion to lose his title outside of a turbo duel." Sayer said calmly.

"Fine, so where do we duel." Jack asked.

"Right this way, I must admit I'm looking forward to out match." Sayer said calmly. "Akiza, could you please show the others to the viewing area?"

"Of course Sayer." Akiza said calmly.

Sayer 4000 Jack 4000: "I'll take the first move, so I'll summon my Psychic Commander in attack mode and play two cards facedown." Sayer said calmly. "That ends my move."

"In that case it's my turn, so first since you're the only one who has monsters on the field I can summon my Vice Dragon to my field. Of course summoning him like this means his attack and defense points get cut in half." Jack said. "Next I'll summon the tuner monster Dark Resonator and now I'll have Dark Resonator tune with Vice Dragon in order to perform a synchro summon."

"Impressive as usual, your strongest monster on the very first turn." Sayer said calmly.

"Exactly." Jack said confidently. "The ruler's heartbeats will now file through here! Take witness to its creation-shaking power! Synchro Summon! My very soul, Red Dragon Archfiend!"

"Awesome Jack has this duel in the bag." Leo said confidently.

"I wouldn't be so sure, this duel might not end the way you expect." Akiza said calmly before walking up to Yusei. "Yusei, are you feeling any better?"

"I think so, I just hope whatever Sayer's planning manages to keep this mark under control." Yusei said looking at the purple dragon on his arm.

"It will be, I'm positive." Akiza said reassuringly.

"What the, there's no way that card can be fair." Leo yelled suddenly.

"Thanks to my Psychic Sword my second Psychic Commander gains attack points equal to the difference in our life points since you currently have more than me, of course this increase can only reach a maximum of 2000 points, but right now my monster gains 1600 attack points" Sayer said calmly. "Of course by paying 400 life points my Psychic Commander's special ability grants him an extra 400 attack points, and with his sword his attack points reach a total of 3800. Now I'll have Psychic Commander attack your Red Dragon Archfiend." Sayer said calmly.

"Not quite, I play the Prideful Roar trap card now by paying 800 life points my Red Dragon Archfiend gains 1100 attack points." Jack said. "Plus since I lost life points, your Psychic Commander loses 800 attack points."

"Impressive, in that case I'll end my turn with one facedown card." Sayer said. "You're as skilled as I expected Jack."

Sayer 900 Jack 3200: "It's my move so I'll start by summoning my Mad Archfiend in attack mode." Jack said confidently. "Now I'll have Red Dragon Archfiend wipe out the last of your life points."

"Not quite, I play the trap Psychic Barrier, this lets me remove two psychic monsters in my graveyard from play to negate your attacks this turn." Sayer said calmly. "Of course thanks to your Red Dragon Archfiend's special ability Mad Archfiend will be destroyed."

"Fine, I end my move with one facedown." Jack said.

"In which case it's my move." Sayer said before closing his eyes. "I have no cards I can play, congratulations Jack you're quite the skilled duelist."

"Of course I am, now Red Dragon Archfiend wipe out the last of his life points." Jack said winning the duel.

"I trust that sufficed to prove that I truly wish to help you?" Sayer asked calmly.

"I suppose it did." Jack said with a smirk.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"It looks like Jack's willing to trust him now." Yusei said. "Still, something tells me Sayer wasn't trying to win this duel."

"No, he was trying to prove to Jack that he really wants to help." Akiza said calmly. "He helped me and now he's willing to help all of us, Sayer's a good person."

"I believe you Akiza." Yusei said quietly. "He's definitely trying to help us at least."

"He will help us Yusei, I'm sure of it." Akiza said. "Besides, you were the one who said we all needed to come together right?"

"Yeah, I did." Yusei said looking at the marks on his arm. "I only hope whatever Sayer is planning can keep this under control so I don't hurt any of you."

"I know it will Yusei, I promise." Akiza said reassuringly.
