5 years later and Electra had little to no recollection of what had occurred. All she could remember was that her parents had died in a fire that she was in, and since Jack had never known what had happened, he was just as clueless.

They hadn't told anyone of the details. As far as anyone knew, their parents had died in a fire. Jack and Electra didn't want anyone to know that Electra had been in it or that she was scarred on her back.

Electra's POV

I woke with a start. I couldn't help but smile at what day it was. Today was my birthday. And not just any birthday either. Today I was officially ten years old. This meant that Martha would now let me have my very own duel disk. Martha only let us have them once we were ten because of safety apparently. But what's so dangerous about a machine that goes on your arm and projects holograms anyway?

I jumped out of bed, throwing the sheets back to who knows where. I reached for my usual outfit which was the same as before, except this time with black jeans.

I was so excited that when I opened the door to run down the hall, I didn't see the people outside until I crashed into them, causing us all to fall over.

"Hey! Just because it's your birthday, doesn't mean you can go crashing into people." I recognized the voice immediately. Jack. I looked around and saw that I had also ran into Yusei and Crow as well.

I smiled sheepishly and picked myself off of the ground. "Sorry guys. I'm just really excited."

Crow chuckled. "Hey it's okay Sparky. Come on lets go downstairs, I smell pancakes." I couldn't help the grin that that appeared on my face as we walked down the stairs to the kitchen.

As we entered said room, my smile grew even bigger, if that was even possible. There was a large banner saying 'Happy Birthday' hanging across the room, and in the centre of the table was a homemade chocolate cake with ten lit candles sticking out of the top. As I walked into the kitchen I heard a chorus of "Happy Birthday Electra!"

"Wow. Thank you. I don't know what to say," I said after I blew out the candles before the wax touched the cake.

Crow answered. "Well you could say lets eat coz I'm starving." He eyed the cake with hungry eyes until Martha appeared behind him with he wooden spoon in her hand. She whacked him on the head with it to get him to behave.

"Crow! You know that's for later. I told you when I made it."

"Sorry Martha," he said sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head where she had hit him. Jack, Yusei and I all burst out laughing. Martha reached for something behind her and Crow flinched thinking he'd get another whack to the back of his head. this made me giggle at the sight. Martha looked to see what I'd found funny and rolled her eyes before presenting a small purple box with a white ribbon.

"Thank you, Martha," I said as I took the gift from her. I opened the box and saw that the gift inside was a silver chain with a dragon pendant hanging off it. It had a small purple gem for an eye and looked just like the duel monster Flamvell Guard which was my favourite tuner monster. "Thank you Martha! Thank you so much." I ran up to her and hugged her.

"You're welcome," she hugged me back. "Now I think the boys also have something for you."

I let go of Martha and turned to see Yusei holding a duel disk with a big red bow on it. My eye lit up as I saw it. It was just a plain basic duel disk, but in my eyes it was the best duel disk ever.

"Oh my God! My very own duel disk!" I couldn't hold back the excitement any longer. I tackled Yusei into a hug causing him to take a few steps back a bit to stop him from falling over. "Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" Yusei chuckled and hugged me back.

"It wasn't just from Yusei y'know," Crow spoke up with his hands on his hips. I rolled my eyes and hugged both Crow and Jack at the same time, which is a lot harder than you would think because of the height diference.

"Thank you guys! This is the best birthday present ever." I said as I let them go.

"Let's go test it out," Yusei said enthusiastically. We all went to go outside but were stopped by Martha.

"You can go and duel after you've eaten," she said in a stern voice that left no room for argument.

"Yes Martha," we all said at the same time. It was a little disappointing having a wait before we could go out to duel but we did get chocolate chip pancakes so it wasn't too bad.

After we had eaten, Crow and Jack started argument about who would be the first to duel me. I was starring at the necklace Martha had given me as Yusei walked over to me.

"Do you want to wear it?" He asked. I nodded and gave it to him. I couldn't speak as I was nervous he would see my scars and start asking questions. I pulled my blonde hair out of the way so he could put it on for me. "There," He said. He smiled as I turned round and put my hair back. I let out a small sigh of relief, he mustn't have seen my scars. Thank God.

"Thanks Yusei." I smiled as I looked over to where Crow and Jack had started their own duel to see who would duel me first. I giggled at the sight, those two would always try and find one way to argue. "Yusei, do you want to duel me first? It will take ages for them two and I cant wait to try out my new duel disk."

"Yeah sure. Just let me get my deck and I'll be right there." He said and walked up to his room to get his things.

I looked down at the necklace. It was really pretty and it matched my purple eyes. Maybe that's why I like the colour so much. I thought to myself as I headed outside to break the news to Jack and Crow that neither of them would be duelling me first. I still duelled, just the old fashioned way, and had Jack teaching me, so I knew he would want to duel me. I had a Flamvell deck and, although it wasn't great, it was the only thing I had left to remember my parents.

I could hear the duel before I had even got outside.

"Mad Archfiend, take out his life points! Ha take that Birdbrain."

"Aw man, no fair. I wanted to duel Electra first!" Crow said crossing his arms and pouting.

"Well now you're going to have to watch while I duel her and-" Jack was interrupted by Electra loudly clearing her throat.

"Sorry Jack but I'm duelling Yusei first. You'd better join the queue."

"Aw what? But I won the duel!"

"Yeah and?"

Jack started sulking and Crow laughed at his reaction, causing Jack to glare at him.

Yusei walked outside fixing his duel disk to his arm. "You ready?" He asked.

"Yeah!" I responded.

"Lets duel," we shouted at the same time.

"Ladies first," Yusei said.

"Okay then," I drew my sixth card, Dragons Gunfire. In my hand I had Flamvell Guard, Flamvell Firedog, Flamvell Archer, Flamvell baby and Flamvell counter. "I'll start with... Flamvell Guard in defense mode." As the monster appeared on the field, my stomach dropped. I don't know why, but a little voice in my head was telling me to be very scared of the monster. I shook my head. Clearing it of the strange thoughts. It's just a hologram, I've seen them when the boys duel, what's the problem. "I activate Dragon Gunfire which deals you with 800 points of direct damage to you as long as I have a dragon on the field." A dragon appeared on the field and shot a ball of fire at Yusei.

Though something strange happened. As the dragon shot the blast, the grass underneath it blackened and swayed almost as if it was... real somehow.

Yusei noticed this as well, and at the last second possible dived out of the way. The blast missed him by a hair's width. The fire ball carried on behind him and hit a tree. Followed by a huge explosion. While everyone was focused on the fire, no-one noticed that I had frozen in place.

As soon as the explosion had happened, I had frozen in place. The image I was seeing in front of me was not Martha's house. It was a strangely familiar kitchen. Flames were licking the paint off of the walls. I whipped my head around in panic trying to see an escape. The only thing I saw was a very familiar silhouette amongst the smoke and Flames.

It was Flamvell Fiend. He started walking towards me. My eyes widened and I started walking backwards. I didn't notice that instead of stepping on a burning wooden floor I was walking on grass. Flamvell Fiend kept coming closer no matter how fast I was going backwards, he kept getting closer and closer. Until I tripped over a log on the grass and was left sprawled out on the floor.

I screamed and crawled into a ball, clamping my hands to my ears and screwing my eyes shut. I didn't notice Jack, Yusei and Crow turn around at this. They rushed over to me shouting my name but I didn't want to hear it. I tried blocking them out.

As soon as I felt someone put a hand on my shoulder my eyes snapped open and saw Jacks petrified face looking back at me. I scrambled to my feet and started backing away from him. I saw Yusei and Crow behind Jack and they all started walking towards me.

Suddenly my arm started burning and I thought that the flames had reached me. I looked down and my arm appeared to be glowing red with swirling patterns going from my wrist to my shoulder. I looked back at the boys. They just stood there, frozen, not doing anything. So I turned and ran.

I just ran away from them. I heard them shouting for me to come back. I heard their rapid footsteps behind me, but I kept running, deeper into the Satellite.
