~Sabrina~

We've already driven through San Fransisco and now we're in a wasteland area. Yugi has been rather quiet lately; he just stares out the window. "Okay Yugi, what's wrong?" I ask.

"I'm just worried. I mean, what if that biker gang is after Pegasus? We could be walking into a trap then." He says.

"Whatever it is, we'll get through it!" Tea says.

After a while, the car starts to slow down. I look out the window to see a gas station a few feet away. The driver gets out and walks up to it. About twenty minutes later, nothing happens. The driver hasn't even come out. "Okay this is just ridiculous." Tea says.

"Maybe we should check on da guy." Joey says.

The five of us get out of the car and walk up to the gas station. The gas station looks like it hasn't been touched in years though. Grass grows over the pavement and the building itself is rusted. The driver isn't anywhere; the entire thing is empty. "Now what?" I ask.

"Hold on. Do you guys hear dat? It sounds like a car!" Joey says.

We run out by the road to see something coming toward us. I squint to see that their motorcycles. There are at least seven bikers. "Um guys, I think we should get out of here." I say.

"Are you sure about that?" Tristan says.

The bikers stop in front of us, "You kids shouldn't be wandering alone." One says.

"Yeah, you never know who could come around."

"We're fine. So drive along." Joey says.

"This looks dangerous, let me take over." Ari says.

"Hey guys, I just got an idea. RUN!" Joey says.

Good plan. We run back to the limo as fast as we can. Four of the bikers cut us off though and all of them grab metal poles from their motorcycles. "Fighting them would be out of the question now." I say.

"It sure is." A biker says.

One of them drives up to us with the pole in his hand and threatens to hit us with it. But all of the sudden he falls off and lands on the ground. What was that? Another biker comes out from behind a boulder and starts throwing something at the other bikers. We run back to the limo and get inside. I look back to see one of the motorcycles crash into the gas station and start a leak. I then notice Joey standing near it spaced out, "Joey! Come on, we have to go!" I yell.

"Oh, right!" he says running into the car. He gets inside the passenger's seat and Tristan starts the car and drives away.

As we pass the gas station, we can see it blow up. "Everyone alright?" Yami asks.

"I think so." Tea says.

"Who was that person that saved us?" I ask.

"It was Mai. I'm sure of it." Joey says.

We drive a while longer and we don't see those bikers anymore. Tristan soon starts to slow down, "What's the matter?" Tea asks.

"I'm not sure." He says.

The car comes to a stop and smoke comes out of the engine. "I think we overheated." Tristan says.

There's no use trying to fix it, so we just grab our suitcases and decide to walk the rest of the way. "Great job Joey, now we're stuck walking." Tristan says.

"Oh, and dis is my fault!" Joey yells.

"Yeah, because maybe if you got in the car sooner than maybe the engine wouldn't have overheated!"

"Guys, stop fighting! This isn't going to help us! So, be quiet so we can figure out a plan." I say.

"Fine. But we have no car, no money, and no direction. What do you expect us to do?" Tristan asks.

"We could try hitchhiking." Tea suggests.

"There haven't been any cars here for miles though." Joey says.

"Just listen. I can hear a car coming down the road."

I look over to see dust flying up in the air a distant away, "I suppose we could try it." I say.

"Great! You guys stand behind this rock, Sabrina and I can take this." Tea says.

I just stand next to Tea and smile. A truck comes by and when the driver sees us, he stops instantly. "Where are you pretty ladies going?" he asks us.

"Industrial Illusions, please." Tea says.

"Sure, just hop in."

"Oh yeah, and my friends are going to come too."

Yami, Joey, and Tristan come out from behind the rock and we hop in the back. The driver looks disappointed now, but still agrees to drive us there. "Hey Joey, I'm curious, how did you know that person was Mai?" Tea asks.

"Easy. The thing she threw at the bikers was a Harpie Lady card. And I got a glimpse of her through the helmet she was wearing." Joey says.

"Yeah, but, if it was Mai, then why didn't she stick around?" I ask.

Joey looks puzzled at this, "Maybe she had somewhere to be?"

The truck driver finally drops us off at Industrial Illusions Headquarters. We walk inside to find the place completely empty. Tea walks up to the front desk, "Not even the phones are working." She says.

Almost on cue, the emergency gates close around all the exits. We run up to them, but the gates won't budge. We turn around as we hear a motorcycle engine and look to see the same biker that saved us drop for the second floor of the building. "Mai, is that you?" Joey asks.

The person takes off their helmet to reveal that it is Mai. "Mai, what are you doing all the way out here?" Tea asks.

She just glares at all of us and gets off her bike. "I'm not Mai, at least not the one you remember." She says. She draws a card from her Duel Disk which is a different shape and color than the usual ones, "Say hello to Pegasus."

She holds up a card with Pegasus' face on it, along with the Orichalcos over it. "How'd you get that?" I ask.

"Yeah, start talkin!" Joey says.

"Or else what?"

We look up to see three of the four bikers that we met that night the God Cards were taken. One has blonde spiked-up hair, while another has wild spiky light brown hair, and the last one has dark brown and wild hair. "What's wrong Wheeler? Did your reunion with Mai not go as expected?" the one with light brown hair says. "And why do we have to stay on the sidelines, Mai? Can't we have some fun?"

"Mind your own business Valon! These geeks are mine!" Mai says.

"Geeks? But we're your friends Mai!" Joey says. "Tell me this is a joke!"

"It's not. I was never a part of your little circle of friends. Now I'm going to take you out one-by-one, starting with you Wheeler!"

Short chapter I know. But I felt like this chapter would be really long if I put the entire duel in it. I don't know if anyone noticed, but the person who duels Sabrina made a cameo, sort of.
