*Toulouse, France, Clairoux Manor 11:19 AM LST*

The sunlight made its ways through the windows of the manor, waking up Ali Clairoux, the White Rose. She opened her eyes and stretches a little bit in her silky nightgown on her master bed. It was a pretty large bed for just one person and it was comfortable too. About twelve people could sleep in that bed and still get a good night's sleep.

Ali: Oh, I couldn't sleep a wink last night…

Ali looked at her alarm clock and saw that it was past 11. Ali just sat in her bed, thinking and looking at her Renaissance-style room.

Ali: *thinks: I just can't stand this anymore. I get up and I just have nothing to do…*

Ali then looked at the cards on her Deck and she went through each one. Exodia, Cirrus Sky Dragon, Forbidden Sky Guardian, Mystical Synchron, all of them. Ali had just recently won the World Tournament and is considered THE best duelist in the world and the World Champion. When she returned to her home city in France, she was treated as a national hero, the first French duelist to be declared World Champion.

Ali: *thinks: I guess I can always practice my dueling a little bit more, but what's the point?*

Ali then laid back onto her bed and stared up at the ceiling. She had thought about all of the recent events that had changed her life, like dueling Knossoss in the World Tournament, defeating Hades and bringing her sister back from the dead and helped saving the world. Events like this would help put a person's view into perspective. After thinking for a while, Ali got up out of bed.

Ali: *thinks: I'd better get a move on. I don't want to end up being a sloth now.*

After showering, getting dressed and brushing her hair, Ali made her way to one of the master living rooms, where she found her sister, Laura Clairoux, the Black Rose, laying on a couch and seemingly talking to herself.

Laura: Oh, really?... Oh, that's so funny!... You're such a riot… Yeah, you too…

Ali looked at her sister like she lost her mind.

Ali: Laura, why are you talking to yourself?

Laura: I'm not, I'm talking to Marc.

Ali looked around and saw nobody.

Ali: Marc's not here.

Marc (telepathy): Hey, Ali! This is awesome! This is my Rose power right here! I can talk to people through their minds! Isn't that wicked? !

Marcello "Marc" de Milano, the Orange Rose, was all the way back home in Milan, Italy, using his special ability to communicate with Laura and irritate her sister, Ali.

Ali: Get out of my mind before I cut you!

Marc (t): Eh, go screw yourself.

Ali: …You wanna say that again?

Marc (t): Not really because you kinda scare me.

Ali: 'Cause you know, I got this sword that's bigger than anything pointy you got.

Laura was laughing so hard, she rolled off the couch.

Laura: Ahahahahaha! Burn!

After that, Marc "hung up" on Ali and continued talking to Laura.

Laura: Yes, it was that funny, Marc! Haha!

Ali shook her head and turned to leave.

Ali: I'm going out for a bit.

Laura didn't seem to hear as she was still laughing. Ali went outside to the Manor's Beautiful Gardens filled with every sort of flower conceivable. She stopped when she saw a Beautiful Red Rose blooming and a White Rose right next to it. She smiled and continued on. She made her way to the heart of the City. It was calm for this sunny day, usually the city would be full of people, but today it was quiet. Ali made her way to her Favorite outdoor café with the waitress happy to see her.

Waitress: Bienvenue a nouveau, Mademoiselle Clairoux! Vorte Siege d'habitude et Boire m'dame? (Welcome Back, Miss Clairoux! Your usual seat and drink Ma'am?)

Ali: Oui, merci. (Yes, thank you.)

Ali was seated at her table with a single chair outside under the beautiful blue sky. The waitress brought Ali a cup of their finest tea. Ali blew on it before taking a small sip. She then took a deep breath of the fresh air.

Ali: *Thinks: I'm glad to see some things never change.*

A smile crept across her lips and she closed her eyes to enjoy the moment. After a moment Ali felt something poking her arm. She opened her eyes to see two young kids holding duel disks. They looked like brother and sister.

Boy: Mademoiselle Clairoux? Pouvez-vous s'il vous plaît autographes mon duel disque pour moi s'il vous plaît? (Miss Clairoux? Can you please autograph my duel disk for me please?)

Girl: Moi aussi! Moi aussi! S'il vous plaît? (Me too! Me too! Please?)

Ali just continued to smile, got a pen and signed the children's duel disks.

Ali: Là vous allez. (There you go.)

Both kids: Merci, Mademoiselle Clairoux! (Thank you, Miss Clairoux!)

The two kids then went back to their parents who were just outside the café and the kids looked pretty excited, which made Ali smile. This is probably the most Ali has smiled in a very long time.

?: Well, you seem pretty famous around here.

Ali turned her head and at a table across from her sat a young woman with pale skin wearing a small, black dress and dark eyeliner. The lady gave off a smirk that seemed a little sinister.

Ali: Qui êtes-vous? (Who are you?)

?: Don't you dare speak to me like that! I know you can speak English, so speak it! I will not lower myself by speaking your dirty language!

Ali: *thinks: This girl's clearly British.* I asked "Who are you?"

?: How rude! You ask who I am without introducing yourself! I must say, I'm quite disappointed. I thought you grew up classier than that.

Ali: Tell me who you are now.

Ali was beginning to lose her patience with this girl who just calmly replied to everything.

?: Now I see you're no different than a dog, simply barking at me. Well, to cease your pointless barking, I will oblige. My name is Raquel. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Ali: *thinks: Is this girl serious?* Pardon me, I must be going.

Raquel: Finally, some manners. I do hope you enjoy the rest of your day because, you know, the world is changing and your place in it might change soon as well.

Ali got up and walked away, getting a creepy feeling about that girl.

Ali: *thinks: What is up with that girl? I just get a strange vibe coming from her. I wonder what-*

Marc (t): ALI! We got a problem!

Ali jumped back, shocked at the sudden voice in her head shouting.

Ali: For God's sake, Marc, don't do that!

Marc (t): It's Laura! We were talking and she started saying that somebody might have broken into the manor! Then I hear her struggling or something! You've got to go back and help her!

Without hesitating, Ali ran back to the manor. When she got there, the main doors were kicked open and her family's butler was on the ground, hurt. Ali went over to assist him.

Ali: Jacque! Qu'est-il arrivé? Etes-vous d'accord? (Jacque! What happened? Are you alright?)

Jacque: Ne vous inquiétez pas pour moi ma dame! Une brute forcé son chemin dans et a pris dame Laura! Il l'emmena à votre pères privés etude! (Don't worry about me, my lady! A brute forced his way in and took Lady Laura! They headed up towards your father's private study!)

They could hear the sound of objects being knocked down and Laura screaming.

Laura: Lâchez-moi, salaud! Laissez aller! (Let go of me, you bastard! Let go!)

Ali hurried upstairs noticing that a bunch of stuff in the hallway was knocked over and she saw the door to her father's private study was forced open. That door has been closed since their father died. When Ali entered the room, she saw Laura thrown onto the floor and she saw a big, muscular man wearing a ski mask that completely covered his face.

Ali: Laura!

Ali then noticed that there was a painting removed from the wall and from behind it was a steel safe. Ali then watched the thug rip the door of the safe off with his bare hands and then threw it toward Ali, who ducked when it flew over her head. There seemed to be many things in that safe, but the thug just grabbed a long, cylindrical container with a white light emitting from it.

Ali: Put that back!

The brute then ran toward the window, jumped through the glass and fell three stories before landing in his feet in the garden. Ali ran to the window and saw that he landed with no injuries.

Ali: Are you serious? !

Ali then went back to her sister who was finally getting up.

Ali: Laura, are you all right?

Laura: Yeah, I'm fine. Go get that guy.

Ali nodded and ran out. She had hurried down the stairs and out toward the garden. She had arrived just as the brute made his way out and Ali had blocked his path.

Ali: Nowhere to run!

Ali then noticed that the brute didn't have the container on him anymore.

Ali: What did you do with what you stole from my father's safe? !

Brute: I'm not telling unless you duel me!

The brute then got a duel disk and deck ready to challenge Ali.

Ali: Fine by me!

She got her duel disk and deck ready and they started the duel.

Brute (LP 4000): *draws* I summon Stone Statue of the Aztecs (Lv.4 300/2000) in defense mode and one card face-down!

Ali (LP 4000): My turn! *draws*

Brute: I activate Wall of Revealing Light! I pay any multiple of 1000 Life Points and then those monsters on your field can't attack as long as the wall's face-up! I pay 3000 Life Points so monsters of 3000 or less can't attack!

Ali: *thinks: Risky move, why try that?* I'll just summon Forbidden Android (Lv.4 1450/1500) in defense mode! That ends my turn!

Brute (LP 1000): *draws* I summon Battle Footballer (Lv.4 1000/2100) in defense mode and end my turn!

Ali: *draws* I summon Forbidden Gardna (Lv.4 0/2700) in defense mode and end my turn!

Brute: *draws* I summon Gear Golem the Moving Fortress (Lv.4 800/2200) in defense mode and end my turn!

Ali: That Gear Golem…

(Flashback)

Colin: I'll now Play Gear Golem the Moving Fortress in defense mode! Your Move buddy!

(End Flashback)

Ali: *Thinks: I've seen Colin use that card enough times in the tournament I…*

Ali shook her head and kept her focus.

Ali: *thinks: Damn! No time to think about him or anyone else! I need to beat this guy!* MY Move! *Draws 2 cards* I release Android and Gardna to advance summon Forbidden Frost Giant (Lv.7 2600/500)! And for every monster I released to summon him, I can destroy one card on your field! I'll destroy your Gear Golem and Wall of Revealing Light!

Brute: I send Wall Arachnid (Lv.1 200/300) from my hand to my Graveyard to prevent the destruction of my Wall of Revealing Light!

Frost Giant exhaled a blizzard that destroyed Gear Golem, but Filed to destroy the Wall of Revealing Light.

Ali: However, I can still draw one card since your Gear Golem was successfully destroyed! *draws* I'll set one card face-down and end my turn!

Brute: *draws* I summon Leech Spider (Lv.4 1500/1500)!

A large spider with a circular, fanged mouth appeared on the brute's side of the field.

Brute: Now Leech Spider has a good ability! He can equip himself to one of your monsters take control of it for 3 turns!

The Leech Spider climbed to the top of Forbidden Frost Giant using its webs and clung to its neck. The Frost Giant then stepped onto the brute's side of the field.

Brute: Now, Forbidden Frost Giant, attack her directly!

Ali: I activate Defense Draw! This reduces the damage to 0 and allows me to draw a card!

The Frost Giant shot ice from his hand, but a barrier appeared in front of Ali and blocked the attack.

Brute: I end my turn!

Ali: *draws* You just lost! I've assembled a five pieces of Exodia the Forbidden One!

Exodia came out of his portal and charged up the energy in his hand.

Ali: Exodia, obliterate!

Exodia shot out that energy at the brute and destroyed all the cards he controlled and automatically reduced his Life Points to 0. The brute ended up getting destroyed in the blast and vanishes as though he was made of shadows.

Ali: He wasn't real? He stole something that belonged to my dad, so he's real enough. What did he do with it?

Ali looked around the gardens, but found no trace of the container. She did come across her two special roses, the red and white one. The white one was cut from its bud and was missing. Ali sighed and returned to the inside of her manor. On the side of her manor, there was a small tarantula climbing up the side of it and once it gets onto the roof, it crawls up to Raquel, who's standing on the roof, holding the container in her left hand. Raquel holds up her right hand and lets the tarantula crawl up to her and it left the white rose bud in her hand as it crawled up to her shoulder.

Raquel: Very good, my pet. You've made me very proud.

Raza: And you made me very proud, Raquel.

Raquel turned and she saw Raza standing behind her.

Raza: I see you got what we wanted.

Raquel handed Raza the container.

Raza: Good. Very good. I expect nothing less from you.

Raquel: Of course you don't. I don't blindly challenge an opponent without knowing their tactics like Necros does.

Raza: Yeah, well, whatever. Just keep an eye on the little white rose for us, will ya? Thanks, you're a doll.

Raza was then consumed in green flames and disappeared with the container. Raquel then looked at the white rose bud in her hand and watched as it suddenly burst into flames in the palm of her hand. She smirked with delight.
