Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy! But this story has to go on, maybe.
Reviewers: Shimmering-Sky, The Queen of Water (I swear her name changes every review)
Shimmering-Sky: Thanks for the heads up. I'm a grammar Nazi too. I never bothered to look up Synchron, or any other made-up words. Oh, and great work on Blue-Sky. Write On!
The Queen of Water: I am glad you complimented me. Ummm, I really don't know what else to say than Write On! and tell you that I can't give anything away. Write On!
The Birth of the Dark Signers
"I summon Sonic Chick in defense mode!" Yusei yelled over the duel runners and the crowd. The duel had played out well, countering blow for blow. I was scared. My arm had been slightly pained ever since the duel began, but I didn't make a big deal out of it. Jack and Yusei were two powerful signer duelists. Of course my arm would be warning me. Luna looked a lot more uncomfortable. She had barely realized her signer powers. Leo asked if she was okay, and she said yes, but I could tell. Finally Yusei summoned Stardust Dragon. I looked down and saw my arm start to glow.
"Luna, watch ou-" I barely had time to say it. We were in the middle of a big temple, the same one Goodwin had shown me.
"Yusei!" I tried to call out to him, but he was too busy trying to comprehend what just happened. A spider was on the ground. My face drained of color. The Dark Signer marks.
"This is the end of the world. The Crimson Dragon has chosen now to show you. The energy off this duel created enough for it to do so. The ancient war is about to repeat itself."
"Goodwin! They don't understand. Explain it to them!" Luna, Akiza, Yusei, and Jack couldn't understand.
"I'm finishing this duel here and now!" Jack cried out.
"Are you crazy? We're witnessing the apocalypse and all you can think about is this duel!"
"Red Dragon Archfiend, attack!"
"If you want to finish this duel, then I'll finish it." Yusei looked back at his hand. Meanwhile I tried to explain things to Luna and Akiza.
"This is the King of the Netherworld's mark." The girls looked lost.
"Umm, I think it's best to try not to understand it, and just know that this is the end of the world?" Akiza asked.
"Thanks." I answered.
"Now, Stardust Dragon, Finish this!" Yusei yelled. Suddenly I was back in the stands. Jack crashed into a wall.
"Where were you?" Leo asked.
"Long story short, we just saw the apocalypse."
"What?" Leo looked as lost as Luna and Akiza had.
"What just happened?" Luna asked.
"Um, I can't explain it." I said. "Got to go!" I jumped over the wall and ran over to Jack and Yusei.
"Let's get Mr. Atlas out of here." A team of paramedics got Jack on a stretcher.
"Yusei…" I put my hand on my brother's shoulder.
"I need to talk to Goodwin." He walked away, toward the tower.
"Yusei, wait. If Goodwin is telling you is something, and something he can easily lie about, I'm going with you. Goodwin will only tell you what he wants you to know, and not what you need to know."
"Fine, but you probably won't like what you hear either. Destiny, I know you want to protect me, but you still are a human being. You can't protect me and yourself. Especially from Goodwin." He countined walking, without looking at me.
"I know. I can still try."
"Then let's do this."
"Goodwin, what was that place we were in? You knew what it was, and you said everything in a way that doesn't make sense."
"Fine I'll start from the top. You see, there was a program that provided power to the city. It provided a considerable amount of power, so a man designed a program to use that extra power. Unfortunately it went wrong. The mass power turned into negative energy. It released the negative energy and created enough energy to release the power of the Dark Signers. The Dark Signers were the first evil that fought the Crimson Dragon. There are six, each to counter a signer. The negative energy is in the Satellite currently, and the first Dark Signer is also there. He counters the head signer. I believe that if you go to the Satellite and beat the Dark Signers, the King of the Netherworld may not rise and destroy New Domino, and after, the world."
"And what about the Satellite? Are you going to let all the people there die?" I asked.
"We can't move them or the negative energies shall travel with them. They will have to remain where they are. They will not all die. If you defeat the Dark Signers they will all be alright." Goodwin faced back at the window.
"Then I'm going to my home. I'm saving the world!" Yusei said.
"I shall arrange travel for you."
"I'll tell Mr. Atlas." The little clown guy said.
"I'll not go in a plane. I'd rather take Hero Dragon. I don't want help from you." I glared at Goodwin. "Sorry Yusei, with my runner, Hero Dragon is a one person ride."
"So, you'll meet me there?"
"Pretty much."
"Where can I summon Hero?" I asked Goodwin.
"The dock where we negotiated should suffice."
"Thanks. I'm off. Yusei, I'm going to find Taylor when we finish off those Dark Signers." I gave him a playful smile and walked out of the room. My duel runner beckoned with its silver lining. I got on to it and raced around the corners of the city. Finally I got to the docks.
"Let's go, Hero Dragon!" The Dragon appeared and bowed it's head then started to raise it to roar. "Sorry buddy, can we go without any noise? Stealth."
"Fine." It said to me.
"It's been a while since you've talked to me. Not since my mark appeared."
"With so much energy, I could literally fly around the world in five minutes. It's been a while since I could talk to you."
"Well, let's go." Hero and I flew to the Satellite in no time at all. "Nice job Hero." Suddenly, I saw a flash of a brown jacket.
"Crow?"
"Close, but instead of Crow Hogan, you caught Maria Tekenski."
"Who?"
"Crow Hogan's girlfriend." Maria stepped out into the open. She had short orange hair, gray eyes, and a yellow and brown tank.
"You could easily be his twin."
"Well, that's how we met. I met a few kids and they said I looked like Crow. I asked who's that, and we met."
"Cool. I'm Yusei Fudo's sister."
"I've heard about Yusei, but I've never met him since me and Crow hooked up about a month ago."
"Cool. Yusei will be here in a minute." The girl smiled.
"Crow just finished raiding a place for the kids. He loves em'"
"Yeah, they're like little brothers and sisters."
"You're all right. Crow is out now, probably. He should meet me at the little center of town. Everyone here has gone crazy, you know. Sector Security is covering it up, but then they went crazy too, so nobody has really been sane cept' for me, Crow, and the kids and a few others."
"That's where I'm supposed to meet my brother."
"Let's go." She went behind a building and brought out her runner. It was a dark brownish-red color with two crimson streaks running to the front point. "I see you've got a runner, so let's go!" She put on her helmet and reved her runner. We didn't go far before I saw Crow and Yusei on their runners, about to leave.
"Hey, Yusei, Crow! Wait up!" I called.
"Destiny?"
"Wait a minute, your sister? I thought she left two years ago!" Crow said.
"Long story. We need to find my friends and warn them about some stuff I'll explain to you later." Yusei said.
"So, let's go." We got to Yusei's friend at a safe place fairly quick.
"So we need to beat these Dark Signers, or else the world doesn't stand a chance."
"Oh, well, I guess we'll find a few Dark Signers tomorrow." Crow said. The kids were all over my and Yusei's duel runners. "One word and their gone. Just say the word."
"Oh, you'd never hurt us Crow." A little girl said.
"Tell us a bedtime story. A scary one. No, you never stay till the end of the story." The children looked intently at Crow.
"How about the road that leads to nowhere?"
"A long time ago-"
"Do the voices! It sounds better with the voices!"
"I can do it too, with the voices." One of Yusei's friends bragged.
"I'm telling it, without the voices." Crow said "Once there were two places. One was desolate and dreary, one was nice and full of new stuff. One day, a man tried to build a bridge between these two cities. At first people laughed at him. One man building an entire bridge? But he kept on working and giving people hope, and soon, other people started to work on the bridge. The people in the nice city didn't like this, so they made working on the bridge illegal. Soon work on the bridge stopped, as did people's dreams. The man kept working on his bridge though, and Sector Security chased after him. Finally, he spread his runner's wings and leapt off his own bridge, and was never seen again."
"Your runner has wings too Crow!"
"Yeah, I'm the stranger."
"Really?"
"No! Now go to bed you little rascals."
"I'll lead them there." Maria said. She walked off, and we went to sleep.
"Yusei, you ready?" I whispered.
"Yeah." We started to push our duel runners out of there when I heard rustling.
"Leaving so soon?" Crow asked.
"Look, this Dark Signer business is dangerous. We've got to be involved. You don't." Yusei said.
"I'm coming whether you like it or not."
"Fine." The three of us wheeled our runners out of the place until we were a safe distance away.
"Let's go." I said.
"Going somewhere?" An oddly familiar female voice said. Then we saw two Dark Signers walk out with their hoods on. One had white lines on her black skirt, the other had blue on his robe. They took off their hoods and my face drained of color. They were Kalin, my brother's friend and Lizzie. My best friend.
Yo, poptarts, pound cake and other stuff. Yay. Bye peoples. BYE
