Reviewers: Mayuko-chan, Shimmering-Sky

Mayuko-chan: Sorry about that. I have a knack for making some stuff go fast, some I drag out for five chapters.

Shimmering-Sky: Thank you for the compliment. If you have any ideas, feel free to share them. Nice job on your stories though. Write On!

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh 5d's. That's all.

"Goodwin! You've been cryptic for too long. Come clean, and don't hold anything from me. I've only heard shards of truth mixed in with lies. Time to tell me the truth, and the whole truth, or you can find yourself another body and tail of the dragon!"

"First, are you in any position to make threats to me? Second, I promised to tell you everything in due time, did I not? But, I'll tell you now, if you insist." Goodwin gestured to an elevator and I followed him. Goodwin showed me a giant temple with the mark of the Crimson Dragon on the entrance.

"You are well aware of the legend. You know the world is in danger again. What you don't know is that I know exactly who the enemy is, who he's using, and why he is coming."

"The Dark Signers?"

"I see you keep up. I like informed comrades."

"I'm not your comrade, Goodwin! Now get down to business." I gave him a dangerous look.

"His name is Roman. He was greedy, and the king of Netherworld liked that. The king of Netherworld turned him into a Dark Signer after Zero-Reverse."

"There are six dark signers, one for every signer."

"Actually, there can be more than six, but they aren't true dark signers."

"True."

"Good, that is truly all I know."

"Against my better judgment, I'll believe you."

"Good, then it's settled. Your brother just finished his match and will be looking for you." I walked out of the door and returned to the arena. Goodwin had actually said something that made sense and was true. That's a first. Yusei was waiting for me. I stopped by the glass part of the tower where Goodwin watched the races. There Goodwin and his little clown follower were watching. Suddenly one of the duelists on the track swerved around, straight toward the tower. I shielded my face, waiting for the glass to shatter. It did, but it was just a wheel from the runner. Goodwin held up his arm, I expected the impact to tear off Goodwin's arm right then, but somehow he caught it and managed to stop it.

"Goodwin, what the-"

"Go to your brother Ms. Fudo." I decided to do what he said, when he sounded so aggravated.

"Destiny! Where were you?"

"Yusei, I'll tell you the same thing I always tell you. Not right now, not here."

"Alright. Let's catch up. It's been a couple years."

"Goodwin might explain it better, if he tells you the truth."

"Yeah, if." Yusei rolled his eyes.

""Look, when this tournament is over I'll tell you."

"Okay, then I guess I'll have to end this tournament."

"There's going to be a loser's round. I'm not out of it yet."

"Nice. So Leo is back in?"

"Goodwin's going to get Luna in, not Leo."

"What, how?"

"Don't underestimate him."

"Right. So I might face you again?"

"Maybe."

"Maybe? You're an amazing duelist! Nobody can defeat you!"

"Akiza or Luna have all the ability to do that. Wait, scratch that, they have the chance at beating me. I almost forgot I'm a signer."

"Destiny you aren't making any sense. What's a signer, why do Luna and Akiza have the ability to beat you if you've never met them?"

"I'll tell you later."

"No, now. I want answers. You're being like Goodwin, keeping things from me, telling not the whole truth, and making no sense!" That pulled me up short. I was being like Goodwin, being cryptic, and not telling the whole truth. I needed to tell Yusei anyway, why not now?

"Fine, I'll start from the top. A long time ago, the world was in danger. A great dragon called the Crimson Dragon saved the world from annihilation, but its power couldn't be contained. Because of this, it sealed itself in six people called the signers. A mark on the person's arm signified them as a signer. Each mark is different, marking them as a different part of the dragon. There are the head, tail, wings, body, and front and back claws of the dragon. Goodwin designed this tournament to flush out the signers. He already confirmed three signers, but he needs to confirm the last two. The three he confirmed are, me, Jack, and you. Jack is the wings, I'm the body, and you're the tail. Don't say anything about you're lying, or stop joking around. I'm not joking, and if you ask Goodwin, he'll say everything I said is true. I'm sorry he's your only other source to confide in."

"Destiny is this some lie Goodwin designed, or are you honest? I'll know if you lie."

"Yusei, this is the honest truth. I didn't get my information from Goodwin."

"Then I believe you. My friends hinted I was a signer, but I needed to make sure you weren't quoting Goodwin." Yusei gave me one of his little smiles. He had changed a lot from those couple of years ago. It seemed like it would be hard to come across one of his smiles now. He used to be the joker of the Enforcers.

"Love you, Yusei." I walked away, leaving him to think. I couldn't believe how easy it was to tell the truth. Then I realized something. I just broke my promise. Yusei had been introduced to this world by me. I promised to protect him, and I bring him into a war? Even if his fate was inevitable, I was the one to introduce him to his fate. I had broken my promise, which was dad's dying wish, and put Yusei in the middle of danger. I returned to my room. I had lost my brother to a promise which I had broken with ten sentences.

"Yusei, what did I get you into?"

Sorry about the wait. I thought I had posted this chapter already when in reality, I hadn't. Two for one?
