" Then accept the truth you are given " as the duelist then plays one of the cards in his hand earthbound whirlwind
" now you have no hope of fighting back "
The sight falls to a concerned Crow as he pounds away on a invisible barrier " Kalin !.. Baka,,, How could you be so stubborn "
Akiza: "No! Did Kalin lose?!"
The effect of the magic wipes the field clean and leaves his opponent open to a direct attack ending the duel. The impact of the attack forcefully throws Crow out of the subspace and into a nearby wall...
Crow grits his teeth and gets up finally able to call out to his friend now they are returned back to their world.
"W-where are we?!" asked Leo frantically.
"I think we are back in our world..." replied Luna.
kalin and the dark signer remain in the subspace.
" you say you are a death God now you got your wish. you help those souls alright but not help them find peace but vengeance. "
"Find them find vengeance? On who? New Domino City for not stopping the Ener-D project before Zero Reverse happened?"
" well that is again for you to decide your darkness is your strongest weapon embrace that fear and anger take it out on the one you hate the most. The crimson dragon embrace law and order. As far as Yusei and his team 5ds their light shine to bright so its fair it will cast a shadow on your heart. This card is your true partner , not void ogre dragon "
The dark signer then shows him hundred eye dragon " remember last time you used it you defeated Yusei in that duel "
"Yusei...he always pushes me back whenever I try to help him. I tried help him save his father from his fate. Yet Yusei wouldn't let me use my powers. I believe it's time to teach him a painful lesson."
" So will you do it give up that dragon for this one ? and if his friends get in the way do what you want with them. the truth is they are the ones that told him to forget the enforcers. and think about his family. "
Kalin thought long and hard at what the Dark Signer said. A dark shadow appeared on his face as a smirk formed on his lips.
"I...will...not do it! Even after all the setbacks! I have come too far too quit! My friends destroyed the darkness in my heart! And I'll we help them stop you!
" Kalin what if i say if you come with me I will make you a leader the shadow army will become the enforcers. If you stay with them you will only be their shadow. Those people rejected you , they abandon you. You want to be like them but you will never become them. That is the truth. Look deeper inside your heart , you know that will never happen. "
"They never abandoned me! Look at Crash Town! Look at Daedalus Bridge! Look at the unified Satellite and New Domino City! Don't tell me you cab's see them!" Suddenly, his psychic aura enveloped him.
That is when the dark signer uses his own.
" you call that power it is weak , just like Yusei defeating you earlier and you losing the duel now accept the fate you are given and release the darkness. This subspace will not release you until you accept it. Without the crimson dragon you cannot use void ogre dragon its powerless and without it you cannot break out of this subspace on your own. A duel is a sacred ceremony that which you lost. You can deny it all you want but it will not change the truth. You failed for the second time... "
That is when the dark signer forcefully embeds the hundred eye dragon in Kalin's heart...
While on the outside the battles Yusei , Jack , Aki and the twins Leo and Luna are about to take part in got cancelled to their confusion. The dark signers got what they want a leader.
They then storm the room Crow was in. Yusei calls out to him
" Crow what happened here ? "
Kalin cried out in pain as he was embedded with Hundred Eye Dragon's energy. A sinister smirk then crept on his face.
Outside, Crow was in a panic. "Yusei,Did ya year someone yelling just now?!
" seems like the thing we try to prevent is now realized , maybe we cannot fight this alone we should withdraw. Those dark signers are really after Kalin not me. We may need to find team ragnorok "
"So I guess the darkness never really left Kalin after all."
Team Ragnarok, huh? Do you know where they are?"
" well I don't know but you never know till you try , because this time the system I made Fortune is connected to all citys all around the world if one reactor turns into dark energy they all will neo Domino City is the center of it "
"If Kalin did become one of them again, you'll have to fight him again, said Akiza.
" Kalin is just full of himself still before I abandoned him and he became a dark signer. I thought that was my mistake so this time I stood by the guy and quell him but he still become a dark signer maybe I should just give up and let someone else fight I am getting tired of this myself. Jack , Crow you are right about me and you are right about him I just did not want to abandon him before maybe that was a mistake. You two are my real brothers "
"I agree with you, Yusei. We don't need some stupid Death God anyway! We got the power of Team 5D's!" exclaimed Jack.
" but we need to get that card of darkness back from them , chances are they took it with them. Seems like the only choice now is to ask the nordic gods for aid. Those guys could be anywhere by now. "
"Do you have at least one of the member's phone numbers?" asked Crow.
"And do you think it's possible to save Kalin again?" asked Luna.
" if there is a will there is a way , I suppose we let the cards guide us. Just like how Goodwin did it to gather us signers. As for Kalin there is no coming back for him. That time when I quell him I used Accel Synchro and called the crimson dragon to me just like team ragnarok and their rune eye. That battle was not just any duel that battle was judgement. If anything the ultimate god , that crimson dragon felt betrayed. If he was able to defeat me he will remain a signer but he lost. So that power left him "
"I can't believe he just lost like that! And We thought he got stronger!" Ranted Jack.
" I told him what Vizor told me that he let his fear consume him , and that is exactly what happened. You all know how he just raised his voice against us and did not speak to me or any of you all after that duel. The very same emotion that cause the crimson dragon to leave goodwin during that final duel with the dark signers. He let his greed destroy him.
But he did not give us the card and went with us anyway that was when he asked for the truth and judgement again a second chance and losing again means he is no longer a signer we all see that battle thanks to luna and ancient fairy dragon giving us that subspace watching him battle the earthbound immortal.
There is nothing more we can do at this point. The gods are not as empathic as we are we seen that first had from those polar gods were used during WRGP that battle caused real damage. "
"I guess we have no choice but to defeat him again and make him see reason. And tell him to give us his card." Said Crow sadly.
"And maybe then third time will be the charm?" Said Leo.
" defeating a dark signer means they are sent into the darkness , and I did this before already I don't think the crimson dragon will do it again I think our god resents the guy already. "
"I know bit he did try fighting a Dark Signer for you, didn't he?"
" He fight that battle using darkness and begged the crimson dragon to spare him and the god refused , and I am sure you feel it as well this time that the mark of the dragon felt different when it returned to us. It is as if how it was with those holders with the polar gods. From time to time it felt as if the crimson dragon itself spoke to us. "
"You're right. Let's go back to your home and see if we can contact Team Ragnarok," said Crow.
" we can try to contact security , they have a database on all the contact info of every duel league "
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" shouted Jack.
" well we dont all need to go there , Jack and Crow with me " Yusei then turns to the twins and Aki " go wait at my home for now while we plan our next move "
Yusei then drives over to the Sector Security HQ with Jack and Crow in tow. The building did not look much different then how it has looked like in the past. Full of screens that watch the whole city.
" its you again team 5ds , did something happen ? " Yeager then takes note of someone missing " I think you all are one member short. What happen to that guy who cannot hold his tongue the leader of the enforcers. "
"He was defeated by one of the Earthbound Immortals," sobbed Akiza.
" seems like all this time that guy never learned his lesson to not mess with things that he should not touch. Now what brings you all here "
"We need your help in claiming back Void Ogre Dragon, one of the Crimson Dragon's followers, from him," stated Crow.
" well for one thing the one you are seeking Kalin is not listed as a member of this city he is listed that he moved away years ago. So I don't know where he went. But it will seem that is not the only thing you guys are looking for "
"True, since he became a Shadow Drone, he could be anywhere. Even the Netherworld." Said Crow.
" normally you all will not be this frantic even if it is the end of the world like that time you all still had a calm state of mind when that thing appeared in the sky and even defeated team new world. it is because you all are perhaps looking for that rival team that nearly defeated you during the WRGP tournament that occurred years ago "
"Yes, we are desperate because we only have until sunrise to stop them! Can you help us defeat the Earthbounds?" asked Jack.
" I will help you try to find that team in the mean time Kazuma and Trudge will join you as well. "
Director Yeager then makes a call to the leader of Team Ragnarok. Harald is in the yard at the time he got the call so his butler Sebastian answers the call.
Director Yeager then orders to put it up on screen using a online call.
" Hello how can I be of service ? " The butler appears to be completely calm.
Yeager then answers " We are looking for the leader of Team Ragnarok Harald. This is an emergency "
" I see I will get him at ounce "
A few mins later Harald answers the call " Team 5ds , well met I had a feeling you will call us someday, Did something happen in the city ? "
"Hey Harald, we have a strange situation on our hands. The Earthbound Immortals have returned along with new hosts. What's even stranger is that they are leaders of the other gangs we have defeated when we lived in Satellite. In addition, they have defeated one of our teammates, Kalin and turned him into a Shadow Drone," replied Crow.
"Kalin was supposed to be a new signer of the Crimson Dragon, but he lost his way again, which led to his defeat. We need your help rescuing his sorry butt!" added Jack.
" I see I will contact my team " and 2 more faces show up Brave and Dragan.
" Its quite a surprise the crimson has a new signer but its chosen welder has lost his way. The crimson dragon is our ally as well since that battle so we will aid you in this time of need " Harold responds. "
When the call ends. They then take the next night owl flight from the nordic area of Serbia and Sweden to Japan neo domino city.
The leader then makes the call from his D-Wheel
" Yusei we will work with you in solveing this problem you have on your hands. But tell me more about this shadow drone of yours "
"The Earthbound Immortals somehow found their way back to the surface and chose the gang leaders as their hosts as a way for them to get revenge on us. Kalin used to be the leader of our old team, The Enforcers, before he too lost his way. We thought he has reformed, but now, we are having second thoughts," said Crow.
"Please, you have to let us know, if there is a way to find him and save him!" cried Luna.
" So I take it that the crimson dragon abandoned him , Yusei you know the legend I told you about during our duel about the last battle of the gods of Ragnarok. If the crimson dragon cannot do it , then we will be the only option left to save him from the darkness. But this is the final judgement if he fails this last time there will be no other way to save him "
"And to think he started off with such a noble goal-to free Yusei's father," said Akiza.
" You all have to decide what to do we can help you fight the earthbounds or we can focus on releaseing your friend from the darkness. With our power we can contact the crimson dragon that is if he still has that signer dragon given to him by the god. But he must summon that one then our polar gods will be able to free him from the darkness. If he uses a dark card that was given to him by the netherworld. In that case we will have no choice but to deal with him the same way as we will do against Iliaster. My team and I are prepared to use our full power if necessery. "
"Let's focus on saving our friend first. He is the only one we know who possesses the power to speak to lost souls," said Luna.
" But we are short on time in the worst case we will lend you our power again just like before that allowed you all to enter the divine temple remember the magic card i used to build the bridge I can help you break the barrier to the spirit world. and we only have till dawn so that is like what 12 hours tops and you all still have some shadow army to deal with "
"Well, so what are we waiting around for? Let's get going!"
" very well then , we will do what we can "
Harald then responds and then cuts the call. He then talks to his team.
" It seems like our shadow drone is holding a signer dragon that will not respond to him but it will respond to us we can use our rune eyes to find him when we do we will challenge him to a duel. If he summons that signer dragon we spare him and use that link to talk to the crimson dragon but if he summons any dark card we will have to defeat him. We will leave the small fry to team 5ds. "
"Thanks for your help, Team Ragnarok. We really appreciate your help," said Akiza.
Team Raganok then makes their move useing their rune eye to track the signer dragon held by the shadow drone finding him at the outskirts of the city.
Harald then calls out to the guy " This is the final judgement , soldier of darkness. We know your name Kalin. Now the three of us will challenge you to a duel "
While team 5ds fights the shadow army.
"Oh, if it isn't the freaky trio. Came to offer your souls to the Netherworld?"
Brave wonders if this guy is the one team 5ds was referring to but the gods do not lie he then makes his move to summon his god Polar star god , Loki. He sets one card and ends his turn.
The next player up went to Dragan who sets up his field to summon his god with a face up Garmr of the Nordic Beasts in defense and a set Nordic Relic Brisingamen.
The Last player then uses Polar Star Angel Valkyrja , normal summoning and using its effect sending 2 cards from the hand to special summon 2 tokens and tuning them.
"The all-seeing and all-powerful king who rules the heavens of the North Star. Now, show your might that reigns over the Gods of Asgard! Synchro Summon! Rule over the gods of heaven and earth! The highest god, Polar God Sacred Emperor Odin!"
He then sets one card facedown 'odin's eye' before ending his turn.
"You freaks got your ace cards out so soon, hmm? I set one monster and set 2cards!"
The set cards were Infernity Necromancer, Limit Impulse, and Depth Amulet.
" This just ticks me off a bit but team 5ds ask us to do this... Draw "
Brave adds Nordic relic draupnir and plays it on his monster " Loki gains 800 attack " He then looks at his set card before ending his turn
Dragan sets Tanngrisnar of the nordic beasts then ends his turn
Harald sets Nordic relic megingjord.. He then looks to his team and calls out to his opponent ending their turn
" Kalin if you are really a signer of the crimson dragon then prove it show us your signer dragon "
"Gotten soft have you? Very well, I'll show you it! I flip over my monster, Infernity Necromancer! I then reveal my reverse card, Limit Impulse and send two cards in my hand to the GY to special summon 2 Soul Tokens! Next, I play the spell Infernity Launcher to send Infernity Wildcat to the GY."
"Now that my hand is empty, I can use Necromancer's effect to bring back Wildcat and tune all of my monsters to Synchro Summon Void Ogre Dragon!"
The dark signer then ended his turn.
" No we are told to do this to spare you by team 5ds. If we wanted to we can just kill you right here , now that your dragon is out it proves you are holding one. This next one will hurt really " Brave then declares an attack with Loki as his rune eye glows. " crimson dragon and Void ogre dragon break the darkness and awaken "
The attack deals 300 damage to the dark signer.
"Grr, lucky shot!" Suddenly, the blackness in his eyes slowly started to return to normal as he realized he had no more moves.
"Where-where am I?"
Brave's leader and team mate then speed up their Valhallander D-Wheel to catch Kalin's. " its over now you are back with us so you don't have to fight anymore , that attack deals real damage but it had to be done " They respond before slowing it down.
" We are Yusei's friends he asked us to finish what you cannot do " Harald simply said while keeping his calm and composed persona.
Brave then catches up with the rest of the team driving on the opposite of Kalin the three of them surround his D-Wheel.
They then feel the heavy air within the city " stay close to us as we are running out of time. Yusei and the others should most likely had finished cleaning up the trash by now "
Kalin feels great remorse over what he did. "I don't deserve to be a Signer of the Crimson Dragon. Tell Yusei he can have Void Ogre Dragon." He takes it from his deck and hands it over to Harald. "I hope Yusei can put it to much greater use."
" You sure you want to do this ? " the team leader then asks
"Yes, I believe it's for the best. I'm always breaking everything I touch."
" alright " Harald then has one of his team mates escort Kalin out of the city " when you leave you cannot turn back " He then takes the card Brave and his leader then contacts Yusei " Kalin choose to step down we have the card of darkness with us and we will be heading over now "
Kalin nods and begins to drive back to Satisfaction Town.
"Are you sure he won't be able to help us anymore?" Asked Leo.
" He has made up his mind Kalin , he thinks he will always be a burden on you all, he said he will leave for good. We held back our attack just like you wanted us to till he was able to summon the signer dragon , I then had brave dive into the darkness. with polar star god Loki. That attack shattered the darkness "
"But maybe we just need to cheer him up, then he can rejoin our team," added in Luna. "As I've said before, he was the one who learned about the threat after speaking to Yusei's father."
" well not really I also felt something strange myself like something was trying to call me into battle again I just did not know it was coming from your city. Brave kept saying something about that feeling giving him bad vibes like team new world. "
"But if we have everyone work together, we can finally lay the spirits to rest!" smiled Luna optimistically. "Team New World? Don't you dare remind us of them," muttered Jack.
" we will just like before "
the team then responds as they get to the site rejoining team 5ds. the team leader then throws the card void ogre dragon to Yusei
" kalin wanted you to have it "
Yusei then reaches out can catches the card in midair with his gloved hands. Strangely while in his hand it feels warm. His thoughts went to Kalin his former friend but then decided that it was time to move on.
