Author's Note: As promised, here's the third chapter with the second, because both are short. This chapter takes a deeper look into what Stella's motives are. This chapter written by me- it was actually super-hard writing this one, because it's the exact opposite of how I feel about Yusei. Enjoy!

*disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Otherwise there would have been more shirtlessness for Yusei*

I watched her slam the door behind her.

I don't care what she thought- she killed Yusei, and she was going to kill the others, too.

They deserve it- following Yusei like a king. He was nothing special, but everybody worshipped him at his feet.

Why the Crimson Dragon ever chose him to be the leader of the Signers, I don't know.

I tapped my manicured nails against the table, annoyed. Why hadn't Jack been chosen, with his burning soul and thirst for power? Or Akiza, and her beautiful malice?

But of course, Yusei had to ruin them. Always trying to do good- it was simply pathetic.

Why hadn't I been chosen for the Signers- and the rest of the world- to follow? The brutal way I battled- I would've shown those damn Dark Signers no mercy, like Yusei did with Kalin.

I'd be sure to have him killed, too.

I stood up and stretched. I'm not kind, I'm not popular, I'm not friendly. But I'm vicious when I need to be- that's what I've got going for me. And I was going to ride this aggressiveness as long as I could- it's the only feeling I've been certain of in years.

I had always wanted love to be the feeling I was certain of.

That's why I had to take it from Yusei- he took it all from me. Selfish son of a bitch.

I looked over the city. I laughed to myself, villains always seem to want to take over the world, I thought, but I want something more important.

Assurance.

I was going to be the "big bad wolf," sure. But that didn't matter. Nothing mattered except for the goal I was going for, what I wanted to accomplish.

So what if I had to step on a few people to get to it?

Jack, Akiza, Kalin, and especially Yusei, mean nothing to me.

Now the only thing standing in my way was the hired help.
