YU-GI-OH 5D'S
Return of the Dragon
CHAPTER 3:
Let's Rev it up!
Goken hoped to shoo him off but his mother had peered to the door.
"Goken who is your friend?" Goken was about to reply but Kaiba spoke for himself.
"I'm sorry Dr Fudo, I must have caught your son at a bad time, we have been in contact discussing a recent project" Seto was defiantly good at playing innocent and Akiza fell for it.
"Well please join us, were having a mix match you can tell us all about it" taking the invitation Seto walked in removing his coat.
"Thank you, I hope I'm not intruding" Seto added hanging up his white coat.
"Not at all" the three walked into the dining room and saw Setsuna and Yusei waiting for the other two members of the family "Yusei we have a guest, I hope you don't mind" after Seto was brought to his attention he took noticed of the teenage billionaire.
"Seto Kaiba?"
"Dr Fudo may I say happy birthday and many happy returns" Seto said offering a hand shake to the scientist which he took gladly.
"Thank you and please sit down" after Seto took a seat Goken an Akiza followed and the five ban their meal.
"so what have you and Goken been discussing?" Akiza asked to start conversation.
"Well as you know Kaiba Corp owns duel academy and Goken's dueling talents have…caught my eye, so I contacted him in order to meet to I could make him an offer. I would have been round earlier but no one was home" The Fudo family were now curious as to what he meant by offer.
"What kind of offer?" Yusei asked making the young man smile.
"I would like Goken to become a Kaiba Corps representative in the next World Racing Grand Prix coming up in a few months" Goken's mouth dropped, Kaiba mentioned a job offer earlier and Pro duelists gain a lot of money I these events.
"oh my, that's wonderful news just so happens Goken recently passed his Turbo duel exam last month" Goken sighed before breaking the news.
"Yes but the only duel runner we have is the Crimson Star but it's under works and I'm not going to be able to get a new up to date engine in time" Seto pulled out another envelope and passed it over to Goken.
"this is a blank check for my licensed duel runner shops, show that to the clerk and he will had your details into our data base and you will be able to order any part or tool you need free of expenses even a brand new duel runner of you so wish. I want you as my turbo duelist Goken and my duelists get only the best of care" after checking the envelope Goken stared at Seto who had continued his meal "Mrs Fudo, this is delicious very unique in my experiences" Goken then looked over to his father who smiled then nodded and the family plus guest got back to their dinner.
Couple of hours later
"I thank you again Ms Fudo for the meal an your hospitality, Goken here is the details for the preliminaries and your access card will arrive in the post tomorrow, I expect great things. Once again Happy Birthday Yusei and goodbye" as Seto left in the same limo Goken arrived in the Fudo family shut the door and Akiza hugged her husband.
"Our sons going to be a pro duelist!" she yelled over joyed.
"so I see…so Goken I think it's high time I gave you that old runner." Goken smiled as Yusei walked over to a drawer and pulled out a set of keys and threw them to Goken "you earned it, no I want to see the old girl god as new and back action you hear"
"got it Dad" Goken looked at the keys and attached to them was a key ring with a picture of his mother and father along with the family friends celebrating their victory from the very first WRGP.
The Next Day
As soon as he woke up, Goken was hard at work, after a full service Goken determined that the GPU needed replacing along with the wheels and the Engine needed to be upgraded to be legally allowed on the road. He took a couple of hours to get the check Kaiba gave him confirmed and he left with a customized chip and a fresh coat of paint, tools weren't an issue as Yusei had collected the perfect set to work on a duel runner. When he returned home he began adding code to the GPU and the garage door opened with Goken's father in the door way.
"How is it?" Yusei asked attracting his attention.
"She'll run again but I'm waiting for a delivery of wheels and updated Engine, so she'll go even faster. Which just occurred t me I need to check cosmetics and are dynamics" Goken replied about to move on but Yusei placed a hand on his shoulder.
"she can handle it, just make sure she's presentable" Goken turned to face his father and noticed he was holding a card "and you're going to need this" Goken took the card and flipped it to reveal Stardust Dragon.
"but this is your best card, I can't take this" offering the card back Yusei refused it and walked off.
"I want you to keep it but on the condition you use it in the Grand Prix" Yusei then walked out of the garage and then Goken heard the door bell go, opening the garage door Goken looked to see a courier from the Duel runner shop.
"he can I help you?" Goken asked attracted the courier's attention.
"yea, priority delivery for Goken Fudo" the courier said handing Goken the delivery papers.
"Really, I wasn't expecting those for a couple days, this is brilliant" Goken signed the papers and handed them back to the courier who signaled robots to move the new engine into the garage.
"Well if your membership any delivery made takes top priority, well till the next time Mr Fudo" after the courier got into the truck and left a kid with spiky orange hair pulled up on a bicycle.
"hey Goken, what you get delivered?" Goken turned is attention to the kid before walking up and sharing a fist bump.
"Ricky my man, how are you?" Ricky Hogan removed his helmet and dismounted his bike.
"The question is how are you, not a single duel yesterday…that my friend is unheard of" Goken scratched the back of his head trying to look innocent.
"Sorry, I was pre-occupied. I got given probably the best opportunity for someone like me" Goken replied before leading Ricky into the garage.
"And what's that" Goken then pointed to the large wooden box and set of wheels next to it.
"I'm going to the World racing Grand Prix" a few moments passed as the thought was processing in Ricky's brain.
"What! That's incredible! Becoming a pro duelist has always been your dream…but hold on how did you do it, you only become a qualified pro duelist you graduate from the academy or make a name for yourself in lower ranking tournaments?" Ricky stated pondering the reason.
"i helped Seto Kaiba in a personal matter and he offered me the position as his sponsored duelist" Goken explained getting a crowbar and prying open the wooden box yet it proofed to me more difficult than he realized.
"Seto Kaiba…The Seto Kaiba…what the actual Frak!" after Ricky's small outburst a Female voice could be heard from behind him.
"Don't be too surprised, Goken is statistically the highest ranking duelist in the school, that's why he's in obelisk blue and you're in Slifer red" the young woman had grey eyes and long blonde hair, wearing a white jacket, light blue top and grey jeans.
"oh come on Alex that's just cold" this girl was Alexandra Atlas and the third member of the this little group as all three have know each other since they can member they are also the children of Yusei Fudo, Crow Hogan and Jack Atlas.
"anyway Goken what in the box" Alex asked changing the subject which Goken was still prying the box open.
"being the sponsored duelist of the richest man in dueling has it's perks…like" using all his strength Goken flew back as the side of the box flew with him revealing a brand new duel runner engine "like a state of the art duel runner turbo charged engine" Ricky's eyes glimmered in the light reflecting off the flawless titanium made engine, he was a bit jealous as he was the youngest out of the three and didn't have his licence.
"impressive, you think you could get a few replacement parts for my runner?" Alex asked.
"you think you could get me a runner of my own!?" Ricky yelled before Goken removed the rest of the engines box and prepped it for hoisting.
"I can but first let's focus on getting this thing ready for the prelims next month" both of his best friends agreed and for the next few weeks they worked nonstop every day after school.
Four weeks later, New Domino Stadium
Due To Yusei's reputation in turbo dueling Goken was able to use the stadium to show off his and his friend's hard work.
"Hey Yusei how it going?" Yusei turned to see Crow walking up to him still in his uniform as he just got off duty, both where now in the pit area waiting to see the new and improved Crimson Star.
"Crow long time, how the crime fighting?" both Friends greeted with a shake.
"great, just busted two runner theirs not one hour ago, so how the runner doing?" Crow asked about Yusei's old runner.
"no idea, they moved it to a Garage a few days after working on it but I have faith it's be better than ever" Yusei assured his friend.
"well I'll tell you I'm interested in what your boy can do on the track" another voice spoke from behind, it was the third of the trio Jack Atlas.
"good to see you Jack but what do you mean about what he can do?, its just test run" Yusei mentioned making Jack squint.
"then why did my Alexandra say this was a duel" the three looked at each other and were now curious as to how this would play out.
Pit area
Standing at the pit area was Ricky and Akiza overlooking the statistics of the Runner while Setsuna was busy setting up a camera.
"I knew you were a Doctor but I never pegged you to be a mechanic?" Ricky asked Akiza who giggled at the comment.
"have you met Goken's father, I had to learn how a duel runner worked before getting a decent conversation with him getting him on a date was even harder" Akiza explained before Carly walked up to the observation point.
"hey Akiza, head surgeon at New Domino City hospital, last time we met your were just graduated med school" Akiza swiveled on her chair surprised to see the rippled glasses on Carly's face.
"Carly, it's been so long how you are doing?" both women began their little chat as their husbands joined the pit area waiting for the grand unveiling.
"pretty well, between Jack's dueling careers and my ability to document his every move we live a decent life"
"I can relate me and Yusei are both head of our respected field and between us we earn enough to live and let our kids learn at a good school" Yusei walked up to the two ladies with a cold drink in his hand.
"here Akiza, hey did you know about Goken and Alex having a duel" both women looked at The Scientist with confused looks and Ricky in shock.
"what! No wonder she's not here. Typical trying to make some grand entrance just like her flashy Dad!" after Ricky's little outburst he felt a small poke on his head turning round he Saw Jack looking at him with a cold look and his father snickering like mad "rat baskets" Jack hit both father and son on the head before walking off.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, it is my distinct pleasure to welcome you to the New Domino Stadium and making his first Ride on the new and improved Crimson Star please give a warm welcome for My big brother Goken Fudo!" Setsuna was able to get a camera to film her on the big screen like the master of ceremony's and as soon as she declared her brother's name, out of the storage area below the stadium a bright red runner flew up before landing on the track and sped off following the track, after making a couple laps Goken pulled the runner in for everyone to get a good look.
"not bad, got to say nice work on the paint job" Crow complimented ruffling his sons hair as Goken removed his helmet, Yusei looked at the screen and checked the top speed.
"348 Mph, impressed I had to take four laps to reach that" Goken smiled at his father and everyone began chatting admiring the runner but a voice spoke through the speakers and Alex on her bright white, duel runner was waiting for her challenge.
"Goken, you and me are going to duel right here right now"
"Dam it! See I told you" Ricky yelled before ducking fearing the tall blonde.
"come on, that's not fair Goken wasn't prepared for a duel, this is a test ride after all" Setsuna said still over the intercom but Goken patted his sisters head before grabbing the mic off of her.
"don't worry sis, I think it's a great idea to test how the runner does in a duel and I thought I told you I'm always ready for a duel" Goken brought the mike to his face and spoke "Alex I accept" giving the mike back to his sister Goken drove off onto the track and both him and Alex made a lap and stopped at the starting line.
"good, whenever we dueled we were always equal in skill but this time if you can't beat me then you're not going to make it as a pro duelist. I activate the speed world 2 field spell!" pressing a button on her dash board a card appeared on her monitor and her duel board rose from it's compartment locking in place.
"don't worry I will win" Goken too pressed the same button and the hybrid duel disk lifted into place.
"Duel mode engaged" the computer notified as both duelist revved their engines. The countdown had begun and when the mark hit zero both runners shot forward and Goken pulled the corner first.
"not surprising Goken will make the first move considering the new engine" Jack commented as the group moved to the viewing stands except for Ricky who was monitoring the Crimson star.
Goken: 4000 LP/ Alex: 4000 LP
"First move is mine, Draw!"
Goken: 1 SC/ Alex: 1 SC
"I summon Junk Wizard from my hand!"
Junk Wizard: LV 1/ 300 ATK /Tuner
"And since I have a tuner on my field, I can summon Boost Warrior form my hand"
Boost warrior: LV 1/ 300 ATK
"now I activate the effect of Junk Wizard, at the cost of a card from the top of my deck, I can set his level to any up to four
Junk Wizard: LV 1 4
"no now, I tune my level 4 Wizard with my level 1 Boost Warrior, out of two will come one and out of one will come great power, I synchro summon Junk Warrior!" upon command Junk Warrior emerged and flew along Goken.
Junk Warrior: LV 5/ 2300 ATK
"how did you summon that? Junk Warrior requires Junk Synchron for his summon" Alex exclaimed wondering what her opponent was doing.
"correct but my Junk Wizard count as Junk Synchron which comes in handy when synchro summoning, I set two cards face down and I end my turn" Goken ended filing two card in the back row.
"not bad, first turn synchro he really is a mini you, isn't he Yusei?" Crow noted impressed by Goken's skills, as he never really saw both his friends kids duel.
"my turn Draw!"
Goken: 2 SC/ Alex: 2 SC
"I play the speed spell Mech Deployment, if I have 2 speed counters I can summon a level 5 or below Mech monster from my Deck, so I summon Mech K-9" a large mechanical Dog appeared running along the track.
Mech K-9: LV 3/ 1400 ATK/ Tuner
"next I summon Mech Leo from my hand" a larger Lion emerged on the field roaring to intimidate his opponent.
Mech Leo: LV 4/ 1900 ATK
"and by the effect of Leo, I can equip one Mech monster from my deck to him when he is summoned, so I pick Mech Draco" from a blue portal a mechanical green eastern style dragon appeared and transformed into a pair of wings allowing Leo to fly "Mech Draco allows the monster equipped to gain 500 attack points"
Mech Leo: 1900 2400 ATK
"making my beast more than a match for you pile of Junk, Attack" from the lions mouth a large cannon slid out and blaster Junk Warrior blowing him up.
Goken: 4000 3900 LP
"now Mech K-9 attack!" the Dog instead went for the bite but Goken came prepared.
"I play Defense Draw, now any battle damage I take is reduced to zero and I get a free card for my troubles" Goken mentioned before drawing his new card.
"you may have some of your life points but not all of them, I play the turbo boost Speed spell, this doubles my speed spells but I cannot attack during my next turn"
Goken: 2 SC/ Alex: 2 4 SC
"now I activate the effect of Speed World 2, by paying four sped counters I can deal 800 points of damage for every speed spell in my hand and I count 3" as Alex's counters dropped to Zero the ground around Goken sparked and he was then electrocuted.
Goken: 3900 1500 LP
Goken: 2 SC/ Alex: 4 0 SC
Goken began to lose control of his runner but was able to keep upright and continue dueling.
"that one had to hurt, he lost 2500 Life points in one turn" Carly commented before looking at Yusei and Akiza.
"Goken's come back from worse before, he'll do fine" Akiza added before Jack snickered.
"well he better hurry up and make a comeback because I know what she's going to play next turn" the group looked at Jack before Alex finished her turn.
"hold it together Goken, if you want to be the best you're going to have to duel under pressure…but can you handle it?" Goken clenched his fist has he slowed just so he was ahead "I set a card face down and I end my turn"
Goken: 3 SC/ Alex: 1 SC
"Don't worry I can handle it, here I'll show you, Draw!" Goken glimpsed the card but didn't recognize it he aimed for a closer look "Shadow impulse, I don't own this card, how did it get in here? Well since I have it may as well use it" Goken placed the card in his hand holder and continued "I activate my trap, Descending lost star, this lets me bring a Synchro back from the grave in defense mode with no defense point and it's level reduced by one, so Junk Warrior come on back"
Junk Warrior LV 5/ 0 DEF
"but don't worry he'll won't be around for long cause I have another monster to play, Junk Synchron!"
Junk Synchron LV 3/ 1300 ATK/ Tuner
"and when he is summoned I can play a level two or below monster from my grave, my boost warrior will do nicely"
Boost Warrior LV 1/ 200 DEF
"Now time for a little surprise I've been saving, I tune level three Junk Synchron with level four Junk Warrior and level one Boost Warrior"
"A level 8!?" Alex questioned as Goken had no level 8's that she hadn't seen before…unless.
"out of three will come one and out of one will come great cosmic might, IT'S TIME TO SHINE! I Synchro Summon STARDUST DRAGON!" in an instant an large white dragon flew into the battle with a might roar, sparkling in the sunlight.
Stardust Dragon LV 8/ 2500 ATK
"huh? You gave Goken Stardust Dragon?" Akiza asked her husband as he smiled at his old friends spreading his wings once more.
"nice to meet you Stardust" Goken greeted the massive Dragon.
"so you were given Stardust Dragon, I'm surprised, this makes this match all the more memorable, I activate my trap card, bottomless trap hole" Alex revealed her trap making Goken growled
"Fine I activate my dragons ability by sacrificing him I can negate and destroy your trap card" as quickly as it came the magnificent Dragon vanished and the trap card shattered, Goken was about to end his turn when he noticed the trap he drew at the beginning of his turn "I set one card face down and end my turn and because of that my dragon returns to the field" as if on command Stardust Dragon reappeared.
Goken: 4 SC/ Alex: 2 SC
"My turn Draw! Like I said this is the perfect match up because from my hand I play the Mech Hare"
Mech Hare: LV 1/ 100 ATK
"Now following your example I will tune my level three K-9 with my level four Leo and level one hare" Goken tried to guess what card she had planned but only one came to mind.
"in an inferno of power and might, a blazing new beast if forged! I Synchro summon Red Dragon Archfiend!" and in a similar manner to Goken's Stardust Dragon, a mighty crimson red dragon rose from the green pillar of light.
Red Dragon Archfiend: LV 8/ 3000 ATK
"Ohh Crap baskets" Goken stared down the beast with more Attack points but I voice in his head said other wise.
"Goken this beast is pitiful against your power, you can defeat it" the voice wasn't him but he shook it off and moved forward continuing the duel.#
