Chapter 2 – The Start of their Legend.

In a facility located under a lab a massive problem was about to reach a crisis point. scientists were running around in attempt to reverse the situation but their efforts were in Vain. "Doctor Fudo its no use we can't stop this over load what happening we need to evacuate now before its too late!" said one of the men as they ran out of the lab. "No my friend this is my sin and I must witness it to the last second. Yusei my son you will live and be free but i won't be there to watch over you, forgive me." doctor Fudo said just as the reactor exploded as too lights left and vanished into the world. the lights bright as a star but invisible to humans flew until they found the hosts of two individuals full of life about to be born. Both these ladies were pregnant and about to give birth. These two would never know that their children were about to have a bigger destiny than they though, one soon to be cared for with love and joy while the other faced a harder future.

"Doctor! Miss Fudo's pulse is getting weaker and we can't stop it!" said a nurse panicking. "We haven't a choise now, prepare for c-secton if we don't we will lose them both." said the doctor. "I made a promice we would save this boy and we will. Yusei Fudo we will save you even if your mother can't be saved!". In another room another child was being delivered at the exact same time as the crisis. "Miss Izinski I'm pleased to inform you its a girl. congratulations." said the young nurse as she delivered the young baby to its mother. "Have you picked a name for her?" she asked. The mother was tired but she nodded and with a spare breath answered " Akiza... Akiza Izinski is her name. My sweet little girl."

Many years have passed and in duel arena many duelists were gathered for a yearly event 'the School Duel' and it was about to hit its climax. "It now time for Queen's academies Top student to make her move how does she intent to win." The announcer called over the speakers. "Ok Time to show you why this schools calls me the Queen of Queens, It's my Turn! I activate Moonlight Vail this allows me to give up Half my life points, then I can summon one 'Rose' Monster from my extra deck to the field, oh and it it can use its special ability without and any costs. I Special Summon my 'Black Rose Dragon'. And thanks to her ability and Moonlight veil all other cards on the field are destroyed!" said a red haired duelists as everything was destroyed. "Yet again I can't win this duel, I guess you're always going to have that title Akiza, well done." Said the opposing duellist. "Thanks but this is the end now. Black Rose Dragon attack her directly with rose flare!" Akiza called ending the school duel once adain. "And the winner of the school dule for the 3rd and final time and is not the shining star of Queen's Accadamy, AKIZA IZINSKI!" the announcer bringing the event to its end. Akiza looked around proud of her achievement but the moment she heard the word 'star' she suddenly started with a headache. "Oh no not this, not now."she said holding her head in her arms. The headache was worse than it had been before and without knowing it she passed out. Blackrose looked down at Akiza just as it happened and roared loudly before disappearing.

Sometime passed before Akiza woke up, she was in the academies infirmary with her parents sat beside her. "oh What happened? Where am I?" Akiza asked confused. "You're in the infirmary Akiza, You passed out after you won your duel. This is one reason why I wish you would stick with you standing duels instead of doing turbo duels as well. We don't even know why you pass out like this." Said Setsuko Izinski, Akiza's mother. "Mom I'm fine seriously, it seems to happen only when I hear that word though." Akiza reminded them. "But that's exactly why turbo duels are so dangerous for you. If that word triggers you every time, What if it's in the name of one of their cards, you would be in danger of hurting yourself." Hideo said sternly. "Dad I choose to become a turbo dualist because I felt like I needed to. Something about it just called to me, wait hold on…." Akiza explained before stopping. "Whats wrong Akiza?" Setsuko asked wondering what was wrong. "Mum 3 months ago a duelist I faced in a turbo duel activated a card called 'star blast' but I didn't get a headache until after the duel ended though. It's strange that the headaches only happen after a duel finishes not during a duel when that word is used. Im wondering if there is a connection." Akiza wondered out loud. "Akiza you have always use plant and rose based cards, why would cards with st…. that word make a difference." Setsuko said almost saying the word in question. "I don't know maybe there is a star card I'm looking for and the reason I get the headache is because I'm trying to remember what it's called. I know it makes no since there but it's possible. Either way I can't let it hold me back after all that competition is coming up and I'm representing duel academy at it." Akiza confirmed. "Akiza why are you so determined to enter it, duel academy said it didn't matter if you couldn't. Think of your health first!" Hideo replied still concerned. "Dad it's a matter of pride, after I graduate I won't be able to duel as often while I train as a doctor remember. So I want to make the most of it before then." Akiza said before looking out of the window. 'besides something keeps calling me towards the arena and I don't know why. What's out there at satellite arena that's calling me? Maybe I'll go to the speed track for a practice tomorrow.' She thought to herself.

At Marhta's house Yusei was looking out of the window looking at the city, he was deep in though and wonder. He was thinking about the dream he had the night before that was still bugging him. "Yusei are you in here?" called a voise as they opened the door. "There you are Yusei, I still see this window is your favorate thinking spot when your bothered about something. Is it the dream again?" she said again. "Yes Martha, Its that image of a rose garden and the figure in the middle of it that's bugging me. I've been to that place many times but everytime I see someone there I get that headache for some reason." Yusei explains. "Let me guess Yusei you think that she is the Girl of you dreams right. Yusei it doesn't exist you should be looking for a real girl not one from a dream. Come on get some rest then you can get an early start on the speed track for the tournament." Martha instructed, Yusei nodded as he knew arguing was a bad idea with Martha. 'Maybe Martha is right but I want to belive either way. I feel like someone is waiting for me though. But Who?' Yusei said as he settled down to sleep.

Akiza woke up the next morning at 6am and felt a lot better than before, she felt like she could take on the whole world on her own. She got up and dressed in her flexable but tight fitting runner suit, and picked up he helmet. "ok Akiza time to knockout some moves on the track!" she said as she snuck out of the house, she knew her family were asleep still so she didn't want to wake them up. Yusei more or less did the exact same thing and was riding his runner towards the speed track at the arena, he had made a stopped by the rose garden on the way there to get a rose. Ever since he started seeing that dream he kept a rose with him on his runner for luck, but secretly he had another reason for this. "I wonder if I'll ever find that rose girl I heard about once. I hope so one day then I could give her it as a gift." Yusei said to himself. The 'rose girl' was the lady in his dream, since there was no name for her he nicknamed her that. As the two duelists arrived at the arena they were unaware that this was the day they would change there lives compleatley. Yusei parked his runner on the test track start point ready to start his time trial, unaware that Akiza was about to turn this time trial into a race for pride.

"Ok Akiza no one should be here so let's get a good time without …. Oh no someone elce is on the lane! So much for my private ride." Akiza said to herself disappointed as she drove up to the start point. At the same time Yusei noticed a light flash on his runner monitor and looked back to notice a red runner approaching. "Oh looks like I have some company for this. Too bad I was hoping to do this on my own but may as well make the most of it anyway." Yusei admitted still feeling distracted. Before they had a chance to introduce themselves the PA system connected to requested both duellists to prepare the monster cards for the speed trial, the two duellists placed there dragon cards on the duel disks ready to start. "When your runners reach a set speed level and time your monsters will be summoned to distract you in the trial, the more you travel the worse it will get. If you are unable to cope with the situation you are reminded to leave the leave the track and return to the pits straight away. Prepare to Ride!" called the PA system as the lights began to flash. "Ready, set …" the PA began before Yusei and Akiza Shouted "Lets Duel!" and Left at full speed.

As Akiza and Yusei continued their time trial they were about to be challenged in ways they couldn't expect. As they reached the target speed there dragons were summoned against them, and they began to attack randomly. "Wow Stardust Dragons getting intense today, what this all about?" Yusei thought not noticing the other dragon. "What gives Black rose Dragon, this it too much. I won't let you beat me; I'll Sense my way through this and beat this Guy as well, no one out runs the Queen of Queens!" Akiza called out determined to win and prove herself. "I WILL WIN THIS RACE!" both Yusei and Akiza said looking to the side and noticing each other's Dragons for the first time. "That Dragon, it a Rose!" Yusei said in complete shock. "That's Dragon its looks like a Star!" Akiza said overwhelmed. Both Yusei and Akiza lost focus with the trial and lost themselves in the sight of each other's dragons. "That dragon looks beautiful." They both said in owe of each other's monsters, but Akiza lost focus and started to get into trouble. Akiza took her left hand and reached out to stardust dragon as if something was controlling her, however by doing this she didn't notice an obstruction ahead. Yusei snapped out of his daze just in time to notice the danger and shouted to Akiza "Watch out!" but it was too late. Akiza's runner hit the obstruction and Akiza was sent flying out of her runner still in a daze. "Hold on." Yusei shouted before jumping out of his runner to catch Akiza in his arms just in time before they hit the ground hard. There runners now with no pilots went out of control and ran into each other before sliding to a stop about 500 meters away from them. Yusei was in pain from the impact but he was more concerned about the person he saved, he wondered for a moment why he would risk himself for a stranger that quickly and without thinking first.

"Hay are you all right?" Yusei said looking down to realise something. Akiza's zip on her duel runner had dropped during the accident revealing a pair of large breasts that while still partly covered up were dangerously close to his face. What made it worce was one of them had completely ecaped and so close he started to panic. 'Oh man it a girl, don't move Yusei you don't want her to think you're a pervert.' He thought to himself as he looked up with his eyes closed. "Ouch what happened?" Akiza said not even realising the predicament she was in right now. When Yusei heard that he needed to save her dignity and his own quickly. "Before I answer that you may want to cover up first." Yusei said quickly. "Wait what?" Akiza replyed before looking down to realise what happened, she screamed and got off Yusei and faced away from him to try and cover up but there was a problem. The zip on her suit was broken and while she got her chest covered up as best she could she couldn't zip up to keep herself covered. She turned her head around thinking this guy would be peaking and prepared to slap him but to her surprise he had sat up but turned the opposite direction. "Wow he must be a genuine nice guy to think of my dignity like that." She said before noticing a jacket in front of her. "What's this?" she said wondering. "Ah. well you can borrow it if you like " Yusei said hesitantly. He was still worried that something was wrong and didn't want her to feel bad. "Oh thanks sir." Akiza said a little surprised. The jacket to her surprise was baggy and she managed to get it on without any issues, Akiza then though it would be nice to thank him face to face. "You can turn around now and thanks for the jacket." Akiza said becoming a little shy all of a sudden. "Are you sure it's safe to?" Yusei asked just to be safe. "Yes I'm covered up now, thanks for not looking by the way." Akiza replied.

Yusei turned around still with his eyes closed just in case, he remembered from Martha never to turn around to a girl in case they were not decently dressed. Akiza saw this and laughed; even though his helmet visor was closed she could tell his eyes were close. "What's so funny?" Yusei asked confused. "You can open your eyes you know." Akiza confirmed. Yusei opened his eyes and to his relief she was covered up and her relaxed a little. "That's good, I'm glad about that." Yusei said out loud not realising he did. "What's that supposed to mean!" Akiza said feeling a little offended. "Oop, sorry I meant I don't like looking at ladies when there compromised, it's just not right. That's why I had my eyes close after I realised what had happened." Yusei explained with a light blush on his face. Akiza noticed this and was flattered that he respected women."Wow I didn't think gentleman still existed these days. That's sweet of you." Akiza complemented. "Thanks….. Ah I just realised I don't eve know your name." Yusei realised, Akiza realised the exact same thing. "Your right, it a little difficult to keep a conversation going without knowing each other's name." Akiza admitted. Yusei took the lead and took off his helmet, "My Name is Yusei, what's yours?" he asked. Akiza took her helmet off as well before continuing "Nice to meet you Yusei, I'm Akiza." Yusei took a moment to notice Akiza and to his own surprise he was impressed with what he saw. 'Wow this girl's impressive and cute too. Way better than those girls jack and Crow like to brag about.' He thought to himself for a moment not realising he was blushing; Akiza noticed this but couldn't help being impressed with him as well. "Wow this guy looks even cuter than those guys that hit on me at school, he doesn't look like much at first but after what I heard from him that make up for it. I would give him an 11." Akiza thought to herself, any embarrassment she had about her runner suit before seemed to disappear. Yusei heard Akiza's words and realised Akiza must have ment to think that not say it. "Thanks for the complement Akiza, Your not too bad yourself. You're pleasant on the eyes too." Yusei said not realising what he said. "Wait What did I just say! Oh no this is embarrassing." Akiza admitted now she was blushing. "Hay don't worry Akiza, if I'm and 11 for you, your defiantly a 100 over 10 for me." Yusei said to try and cheer her up. Yusei didn't realise she attually was hitting on Akiza with that statement, Akiza normally would have walked away from that but hearing that after what she said stopped her. "Oh ah, thanks Yusei. I bet you say that too all the girls." Akiza said to try and change the subject. Yusei shock his head to Akiza's surprise. "Actually you're the first girl I've talked to this way, I'm not the easiest person to talk with." He admitted. "Really with the way to talk I would have thought all the girls would be after you." Akiza guessed. "Jack and Crow tend to lure all the girls actually, any girl I try to talk to go to them instead." Yusei admitted sadly. Akiza felt sad hearing that and moved over to give Yusei a hug as she was feeling a little sorry for him. 'What the hell am I doing Akiza, am I feeling emotional about a boy. This is going to get awkward.' She thought but to her surprise Yusei returned the hug, but then it happened.

Akiza forgot herself and fell on him causing them to fall to the ground, leaving her on top of Yusei. "Just wondering Akiza do you do this to all the boys?" Yusei asked sounding a little cheeky. "Ah n n no I don't." Akiza replied feeling awkward now. Akiza's body had turned to jelly from embarrassment, she couldn't build up and strength to even lifts herself off of Yusei. Yusei noticed Akiza had a problem, he rolled over just enough for Akiza to roll off him till she was right next to him. Akiza still couldn't find any strength to move and Yusei could tell, he got on his knees and picked Akiza up into his arms and began to walk towards there still grounded duel runners. "Let's get you more comfortable." Yusei said as he carried her, Akiza was becoming even more embarrassed with this and blushed even more. 'This is new being carried by a man, I like this but why do I feel so embarrassed as well.' Akiza wondered to herself. Akiza felt comfortable with Yusei for some reason and couldn't understand why.

Yusei sat Akiza on her duel runner which managed to stay stud up on his runner's placement before moving to retrieve the cards they used which had flown off in the accident and were not far away. With Akiza on her own she started to recover from her embarrassing situation. "I'm starting to think coming down here today was a bad idea, now my outfit needs repairing before the tournament. On the bright side I met a nice boy though." Akiza said to herself getting her composure back. Yusei reached over and grabbed the 2 cards that were on the grounds, he noticed that stardust was face up compared to Akiza's card but it got him wondering what it was. "I wonder what Akiza's monster is? A red dragon was out during the time trial. It seemed majestic from what I saw." He said to himself as he turned the second card over to revel 'Black Rose Dragon' and the moment that happened Yusei started with a major headache. "Ow no not now!" he shouted in pain. Akiza looked over after hearing that, after noticing that Yusei had his hands on his head and looked in pain got off her runner to run to him worried. "Yusei what's wrong!" she called as she ran to him. Just as she was about to get to him Yusei fell to the side, Akiza pushed herself and caught him in her arms. "Yusei are you ok? What's wrong?" Akiza cried out, at that moment Yusei dropped the cards on the ground. "Hold on, that card!" Akiza said in shock as she sees 'Stardust dragon', it sends a bolt of electricity thought both of them and Akiza passes out as well. What was about to begin would now change their lives forever in ways they could never imagine.
