Chapter 1: The Specialist

The sun blinded him for a second, but he didn't care. He was lost in his mind. He needed to sort things out. Too much had happened. He needed a break. That's why Yusei decided to take a walk in Neo-Domino city.

Ignoring all of his surrounding, Yusei began to recall all the events that took place in less than a month. It seemed so far away. The tunnels, his first duel with Jack, the facility, even the Fortune Cup, were like distant memories. He couldn't forget them, for he had met so many people, like Aki, Rua, Ruka, Himuro, Yanagi and many more. He remembered the time when he learned that he was a signer, a chosen one, whose mission was to summon the crimson dragon and bring peace to the world. But ever since they arrived, everything changed. The dark signers. Their archenemies. So many things happened since they decided to appear, like his duel to the death with his former friend Kiryu, who became a dark signer, the kidnapping of the twins by the Arcadia Movement and the carnage that took place after that with the appearance of the two earthbound gods and finally, the explanations of Godwin about the link between the crimson dragon, the signers and the dark signers.

Not everything was negative. The Arcadia Movement, who wanted to use the psychic duelists as weapons for war in order to take revenge for their pain, was finally down, Aki forgave her parents and finally started to reveal her emotions and four of the five signers were together.

And yet, all these good news did nothing to reduce the pain and the worries that they all felt. In a attempt to see if Rua had hidden psychic powers, Divine, the leader of the Arcadia Movement dueled him and took him down by launching a direct assault with Thought Ruler Archfiend, his greater monster. The attack was so strong that he lost conscience. Ever since, Rua has been lost in a deep coma and nothing managed to wake him up. Aki said that he should have awakened by now. But he had not. After a few days, they took him to a hospital. The same one that Yusei just left and the one he was in front now.

After giving a final look outside, Yusei went back inside. He didn't need to ask for the room number, for he came to this room so many times. When he entered, he saw that Ruka had fallen asleep on her chair once again. Her eyes were red because of the crying. He felt sorry for her. She was the one that took the news the worst. There was not a day were she did not come to see him. She was so worried about him. Each time he saw that, Yusei could not help but curse fate for everything that happened to these kids. He heard of the story of Ruka and the time she had spent in the spirit world. Now, the roles were changed. Rua was the one imprisoned and Ruka the one who was afraid and that tried to call him back. But this time, it didn't seem to work.

She was back, one again. He had waited for her. He knew she would appear eventually. She always did. And each time, he would go to her. Today, she was in the country with a group of little monsters. She was younger, but he still recognized her. She seemed to have fun with the small creatures. Then, a large blue dragon with butterfly wings came. It was taking to her. He couldn't help but be jealous of that dragon. He wanted to talk to her, to protect her. He felt as if that creature was taking his place.

This brought him some interrogations. What was his place? Who was he to this girl? And who was she to him? It was one of those moments when he wanted to know who he was.

The door brought Yusei out of his mind. Turning around, he saw Aki enter along with a doctor. Yusei recognized him as Doctor Toya, the man who was responsible for Rua's case. Aki spoke first.

-Yusei, this man know someone that might be able to help Rua.

This caught Yusei's attention right away.

-Really?

-Well, I have to admit, what this boy has is beyond my knowledge. I never saw anything like this. Physically speaking, he is in perfect condition. His body and his brain had suffered no damages. Technically, he should be awake by now. But it's like his mind isn't in his body anymore.

-But there is someone who can help?

-I don't know if he can help, but he would know more about me, that's for sure. He is a doctor who specializes in coma cases and strange sleeping behaviors. He might be able to do something.

Yusei and Aki exchanged a glance. They both knew that this might be their only chance to save him.

-Alright, you can call him.

The doctor bowed a little and left the room. Then, Yusei went where Ruka was sleeping and woke her up.

-What is it Yusei? Did Rua wake up?

Yusei knew that breaking this hopeful face would break his heart, but he had to do it. At least, give her some hope.

-No, but there is someone who might be able to do something.

Ruka's face fell, but she still tried to smile. At the same time, the door opened once again. This time, a tall blond man around his 40s came in.

-Good afternoon. My name is Raito Izumani.

Yusei shook the man's hand. He looked like a good person.

-Is this Rua?

Doctor Izumani went to the bed, but half way there, an anxious Ruka went to him.

-Can you help him, sir?

-I will try.

This seemed to make Ruka more cheerful. Doctor Izumani went to Rua and started to give him some sort of check-up. He would also read the notes that doctor Toya had taken. After a while, he spoke to Yusei and Aki.

-I need to run some special test on him, but the installation will take a while. So I'm afraid that the visit will have to be cut short.

That didn't please Ruka, but they didn't have a choice.

The three of them came back the next morning. What they saw left them speechless. Rua had about ten different cables on the head that were linked to three strange looking machines. Doctor Izumani was adjusting one of them when he saw them. He gave them a sign to come in.

-You're just in time. The result of last night analysis should come out any second now.

A few minutes later, the three machines started to make some weird noise. After a while, they stopped. Then, the doctor opened his computer and started to look at the result. The first two didn't seem to interest him much, but when the third came, his face went completely white.

-What wrong?

Doctor Izumani looked at the result one more time before facing them.

-Well, his brain seemed to be fine and by the looks of it, he is dreaming right now. But his brain waves are extremely intense. They are far beyond a normal human being.

-What does it means, asked Ruka. She was worried.

-I don't know. I haven't seen that kind of thing since…

Raito suddenly paused. He was lost in his thoughts.

-Could it be?

He didn't let them ask a question. He took out a cellphone and called someone.

-Honey? It's me. Can you get Kokusho from school? I need him at the hospital. Room 325.

After hanging up, the doctor went back to his computer. It was as if he was the only one in the room. He would look at Rua's brain waves and compare them to another one that seemed similar. After about half an hour later, two persons entered the room. The first one was a beautiful woman with long blond hair. She was obviously a top model, for no one else could have had such a great figure. Beside her was an 18 year old boy. He had a tall figure, a pale skin, a school uniform… and the longest and whitest hair they had ever seen on a guy before. Not even Godwin's hair could compare to that. They were pulled on his back by a long ponytail that reached the end of his back. However, he seemed to have a bored expression, like he didn't care if he was there. Doctor Raito Izumani made the presentation.

-Mr. Yusei, Ms Aki, Ms Ruka, this is my wife Misa and my son Kokusho.

-You need my help, Dad?

-Yes. This kid over here is named Rua and he has been in a coma for about a week now.

-But what can I do. You're the specialist here, right?

He was definitely bored.

-Have a look at his brain waves.

Kokusho went to the computer. And when his eyes fell on the screen, everyone in the room saw his face change. He was surprised.

-Wow. These waves are off the chart. Is it humanly possible? I have never seen anything like those before.

-I did. Your waves.

Kukosho' s eyes were wide open.

-You think he's a…

-I think so. Can you check?

-Sure.

He went to Rua's bed and put his hand on his head. He looked like he was meditating or analyzing. After a while, he spoke again.

-I can't believe it. He's like me.

-WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

Obviously, Ruka was getting impatient. These people knew what was wrong with her twin brother and she wanted to know.

-Mom, Dad, can you explain to them the situation. I need to find him. He won't wake up until I do. He seems lost in his mind and it might take a while. Don't mind if I do?

-Go ahead, said Misa. We can handle things here.

Kokusho made a short sign with his head and went to sit on a chair. A second later, he had fallen asleep. Or at least, it looked that way.

-Alright, said Yusei. Explain.

-Okay. To put it in a simple and direct way, my son and Mr. Rua are dreamwalkers.

The three listeners looked at each other.

-They are what?

As soon as he opened his eyes, the surrounding became familiar. He couldn't remember how many times he went to this black world. All the spheres around him were taunting him. He really wanted to go in them. But he knew he couldn't. Not now. He had a job to do: Finding Rua in that world of the night. He began to search r the smallest trace of power. A trace he could follow. He was tracking. He was hunting.
