At the restaurant Neopolean Poe owned X walked into Poe's office and threw a bag of money on the table.
"Well X I m impressed I think you have earned your former rank back so I have arranged for someone to take you to the main base and meet with the top 5 leaders."
X was stunned, even before he quit he had never meet the top five.
"Okay" X said.
At the main base X was taken to his room by a junior member.
"Yes and mister X the top 5 want to meet you in a half an hour"
"Lushous." Said X. (That's my own phrase it means 'wonderful')
After the junior left X took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Investigator?….Yes……I'm in, here's the address."
X walked into a room shaped like the court room from the 5th Harry potter book. The top 5 were sitting where the ministry folks were sitting in the book.
"X correct?" one asked.
"That's right." X confirmed.
"Well, Poe has told us how you always get the job done right and are an expert duelist." another one said.
"So we want you to duel our best man." A third one said.
"I accept." X said
The ground in the center of the room rose up and there was a man about maybe 35 standing with a duel disk.
"So what's your name?" X inquired
"They call me the Leech" Leech said
"Duel!" They both said
Leech 4000

"I summon one card in facedown defense position and end my turn." Leech
"I summon Ax Raider (def 1150 atk 1700) in attack mode and have him attack your facedown." X
"It won't get through because that's Giant Solider Of Stone" (def 2000 atk 1300)Leech

"For my turn I set another card in facedown defense position and end my turn." Leech
"I summon Vorse Raider (def 1200 atk 1900) and have it attack your face down."
"Thank you, because when Sonic Bird (def 1200 atk 1400) is destroyed I can pull a ritual monster from my deck." Leech
"Well I too have a ritual monster and I activate Curse Of The Masked Beast and by tributing my to monsters I can summon The Masked Beast (def 2800 atk 3200) to the field and have him destroy your stone solider."
"For my turn I activate Polymerization to fuse Thousand Eyes Idol (def 0 atk 0) and Relinquished (def 0 atk 0). to create Thousand-Eyes Restrict (def 0 atk 0).Leech
"What is a monster with that kind of attack do against my Beast?" X
"Oh, he can do allot his special ability allows him to use your monster as an equip card." Leech
"What!" X
"And now he attacks you directly." Leech
Leech 4000
X 500
"Maybe this X guy isn't as good as you thought Poe." One of the top 5 said to Poe.
"Summon a monster in facedown defense position" X
"My Restrict attacks your facedown" Leech
"Summon a monster in facedown defense position" X
"My Restrict attacks your facedown" Leech
"I activate Swords Of Reveling Light and summon a monster in facedown defense position." X
"I draw and end my turn." Leech
"I summon another monster in facedown defense position." X
"I set three cards facedown and end my turn." Leech
"I sacrifice my two monsters to summon the Cosmo Queen (def 2450 atk 2900) in attack mode and activate Heavy Storm which returns all cards on the field to our hands and equip my queen with Megomorph which doubles its attack and before I have it attack I activate Monster Reborn and revive my Vorse Raider. Now my queen will attack your restrict." X
Leech 2300

"Who cares my restrict still lives." Leech
"But with no attack points, and now my vorse raider will attack it, destroying it and finally I activate Sparks which deals 500 points of direct damage to your life points."

"Very good X, how would you like to join our top 5?" Asked Leech
"Well I—
"This is the police everybody come out with their hands up" Shouted a voice from the outside.
"And that's my cue to get out of here." Said X
"What!" Everyone in the room gasped
"Seriously guys did you think I honestly was back, I'm good, now see you later." He threw down a smoke grenade and vanished.
An hour later at the academy everyone was watching the news and watched as the police take theDueling Thievesinto custody and the paparazzi was beginning to smother the investigator when suddenly smoke blew from everywhere. When the smoke cleared X was standing next to the investigator.
"Ah X never got a chance to thank you for helping us with this case."
"No problemo I actually enjoyed doing it." X Replied
"X? As in Duelist X?" One of the reporters asked. (If you haven't noticed the paparazzi is a little slow around here.)
"And that's my cue to get out of here." Said X pulling out a smoke grenade and pulling the pin and smoke started to flow out.
"Wait just one question, please?" Asked a reporter.
"Alight just one make it quick." X said irritation in his voice.
"Why did you kill that cop in the thrift store?" The women asked.
"Lady." Said X snickering. "If that man died, he'd be the first man to die from being shot with a blank. Now no more." He declared and threw down his grenade.
"My goodness so he wasn't a killer, and I accused him of being one." Stephanie gasped watching from the academy dorm common room.
"Well I'm sure X forgives you." Said a voice behind her.
Stephanie turned around and saw James Markowski standing over her.
"Dang! How does he do that?" Bryce muttered to himself.
"I'm sorry James I didn't know you were faking it." Said running up to him and giving him a hug.
"It's okay I have no more old friends trying to find me and I can go on in life." Said James. He then dove into a lasting kissing with Stephanie.
Outside the room the handyman had just finished installing a new lightbulb in the wall he turned and narrator time: "So with the Dueling Thieves gone everything seems to fit a perfect ending, butdo you honestly think a stroy this long has an ending this peaceful? Yes I know you must be getting tired of seeing me, but thereare a couple ofmore piece of the puzzle that you must see until you can finally rest your mind on the subject of Duelist X so stay alert. For FBI files I'm Jim Cal-(wrong ending again) so thanks for reading."
