*Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Plaza Hotel, 4:12 P.M. LST*
Alice Knightley and Cyla stood in the main lobby of the hotel. The hotel's main lobby was round and the back of the lobby led to the tower of floors that contained each room. Just past the hallway with the rooms was an indoor pool that was filled with people.
Alice: What is taking them so long?
Cyla: Well, Nick said it was an old acquaintance of his. Maybe they're just old friends catching up.
Brad: **** YOU, HOLLALAND! ! !
Brad Allen had the door open only slightly with a chain attached to the door and Nick and Crow were on the other side of that door.
Nick: Oh, come on! What I did wasn't that bad!
Brad: You tazed me you mother****er! I now have a ****ing heart condition!
Crow: Look pal, you're a data-cruncher. We just need you to look at something and we'll be on our way.
Brad: News flash! **** YOU! I ain't helping you assholes with anything!
May: Well this ain't getting us anywhere.
Brad turned around and saw May Cheng standing right behind him in his room.
Brad: How the **** did you get in here? !
May: The vents. They're pretty big. Now, if you're not going to cooperate with us…
May then pulled out a taser gun and pointed it at him.
Nick: May, that's not a good-
May fires it at him and Brad was tased and literally shocked. He started to spaz out and fell to the floor. May then unchained the door and opened it for the guys.
Nick: *sighs* I was really hoping to avoid that this time. Crow, go get the girls, I'll take care of Sir Spaz-a-Lot here.
Meanwhile outside, three suspicious vans were parked outside. They seemed to be monitoring the activity in the hotel.
Van 1: We have confirmation. They are entering the hotel room now.
Van 2: We are awaiting the orders to move in.
?: You move in on my orders, remember that. Mr. Edwards out me in charge of the operation for a reason. Is that understood?
All vans: Understood!
?: The data they stole needs to be restored before we can take it. So let's wait a few minutes.
In Allen's hotel room, which looked like a giant information hub for a computer geek, Allen was tied to a chair in front of his computer.
Brad: **** you guys! I ain't helping you with shit!
May then pulls out the taser again just to scare him and sparked it a little.
May: You sure you don't want to rephrase that?
Brad: Uh, fine! Fine! Just untie me!
Cyla untied him, he put the data inside his computer and started looking at it.
Brad: Huh, a Deus Ex encryption algorithm. Someone has some files in here that they don't want people to know.
Cyla: Is it impossible to crack then?
Brad: No, it's just a little more difficult. Just give me a few minutes.
Nick: Thanks Brad, I owe you one.
Brad: **** yeah, you do!
Alice was looking though the window which overlooked the indoor pool. She saw some suspicious men walking around down there.
Alice: You guys might want to hurry up. We got some company.
Brad was doing something with the computer and was able to decrypt some of the data, then there was a knock at the door.
Man with woman's voice: House- *coughs* Housekeeping!
May: -_- Seriously, who are they trying to kid?
Then they started to bang on the door like they were trying to break in.
Brad: Shit! I don't have all of it! What the **** did you ****ers get yourselves into? !
Cyla: D-Doesn't matter! We need to get out of here!
Brad: How? ! We're on the fourth ****ing floor!
Crow looked around and then he saw Brad's bed.
Crow: Is that a king-size mattress?
Brad: Yeah, why?
Jenna Morough was sitting poolside at the indoor pool reading a book when suddenly, a mattress came flying out of a window and landed at the deep end of the pool. She looked up and she saw one person after another jump out of a fourth story, landed on the mattress and got out of the pool safely. When you have a floatation device in the water and you jump from a high place, you can land safely in the water and emerge unscathed, but you need to make sure you hit the floatation device. Brad then jumped out of the window, missed the mattress and his left ankle hit the bottom of the pool, breaking it. (Otherwise, it's like jumping onto solid concrete.)… Ouch
Brad: ****!
Nick and Crow helped limp Brad out of the pool and they walked right by Jenna Morough.
Crow: Crazy party up there, huh?
Jenna just blinked as they walked right by her.
A man walked into the front lobby. He had fiery, red hair and a burn mark over his right eye. He wore a black jacket with hotrod flames and the Rift armband around him. His name was Typhon, he was the best and most feared of all of the duelists in the Rift organization. He was speaking into a small speaker and earpiece.
Typhon: Status report: Are you in the room?
Rift goon: Affirmative, but they got away by jumping out the window.
Typhon: They did-They did what? ! Never mind, what did they do with the computer?
Rift goon: It's smashed it to hell and took the data.
Typhon: Fine, if they want to play this game, set the firebombs!
And in an instant, bombs exploded all over the hotel, causing a massive fire. In the panic, people ran out of the main lobby and Typhon just kept moving forward. He passed the roaring flames, pulls out a cigarette and lights it using the fire.
Rift goon: Squad 2 here, no positive identification.
Rift goon: Squad 1, still no identification.
Rift goon: Squad 3, they are not among the fleeing people. All exits are covered.
Typhon: Not all exits. There's still the underground garage.
Typhon finished his cigarette, threw it into the flames and left the area casually.
The group headed down into the underground garage. It was full of smoke from the fires, but Cyla managed to find her, Crow's and Alice's special roller blade Duel Runners.
Cyla: Here they are!
Brad: There's only two Runners! How the **** am I gonna get out? !
Crow: I was thinking we should just leave you here.
Brad: **** you! You got me in this shit and you're getting me out!
Suddenly the wooden, plastered ceiling collapsed. A giant support beam on fire was about to fall on Nick, Brad and Crow. Nick pushed Brad and Crow aside and the pillar fell on top of him. The rest of the ceiling came down and it actually separated them into three groups: May was alone, Cyla was with Crow and Brad was with Alice.
Alice: Oh my God! Nick, are you okay? !
Nick: Yeah, I just had a building fall on me! I'm fan-****ing-tastic!
Crow: May, where are you at? !
May: I'm trapped! There's no way for me to get around this rubble!
Typhon: Well, that's unfortunate. I was hoping to take you all on.
Crow and Alice turned around and they saw Typhon smoking another cigarette behind them.
Typhon: Oh well, the firebombs worked really well. I'm impressed.
Crow: What, you just bombed the place? ! What about the innocent people who are here? !
Typhon: My job is to claim the data and bring Alice Knightley alive.
Alice: You're with the Rift! Why do you want me?
Typhon: Don't know really. Something about the White Rose Paladin card and something your mother uncovered that she shouldn't have. Something about Roses or something, I didn't pay much attention.
Alice: My mom?
Crow: Cyla, take the computer geek and get out of here! I'll take care of this guy!
Brad: Computer geek? ! Why, you son of a-
Cyla then knocked him over the head, put him on her Duel Runner and rode out.
Crow: Alice, you go too.
Alice: No, he knows something else! I need him to tell me!
Typhon: Fine, I'll duel both of you. I'll be done before the building collapses anyway.
Nick: *coughs* *coughs* Don't worry about me! I'm just dying here, that's all! *coughs*
Typhon: Oh, and there's another incentive to finish this duel early. Don't want your friend to suffocate from the smoke, do you?
The three readied their duel disks and prepared for a 2-on-1 match.
Typhon (LP 4000): First move's yours big guy!
Crow (LP 4000): *Draws* First, I'll summon the Tuner monster Blackwing-Mistral the Silver Shield (Lv.2 100/1800) in defense mode! Then I'll place two cards face-down and end my turn!
Alice (LP 4000): *draws* I summon Delilah the Royal Spirit (Lv.4 1900/1800) in defense mode and then I place one card face-down! That ends my turn!
Typhon: *draws* First, I activate the Continuous Spell Blaze Accelerator! Now I can destroy a monster by sending a Pyro-type monster with 500 or less attack from my hand to the Graveyard! However, when I do this I can't attack this turn! So, I'll just send my Volcanic Scattershot (Lv.2 500/0) to the Graveyard to destroy your Mistral the Silver Shield!
The Blaze Accelerator fired Volcanic Scattershot at Mistral and destroyed him.
Typhon: And since Scattershot was sent to the Graveyard, you take 500 points of damage! And I can send 2 more Scattershots from my hand or Deck to destroy all of your monsters!
The Blaze Accelerator fired two more Volcanic Scattershots and destroyed Delilah. Then parts of the flames headed straight for Crow and Alice, dealing them 500 and 1000 points of damage respectively.
Typhon: And then I summon Volcanic Slicer (Lv.4 1800/1200)! And then I activate his ability to deal one of you 500 points of damage instead of attacking! Since I can't attack anyway, I'll do just that!
Volcanic Slicer shot a flaming, molten orb at Crow and inflicted him with 500 points of damage.
Typhon: I'll place two cards face-down and end my turn!
Crow (LP 3000): *draws* Since I have no monsters and you do, I can summon Blackwing-Sirocco the Dawn (Lv.5 2000/900)! Then I Special Summon Bora the Spear (Lv.4 1700/800) and Gale the Whirlwind (Lv.3 1300/400)! Since I managed to Special Summon Gale the Whirlwind, I can activate the Trap Black Return! I select one of your face-up monsters, return it to your hand, and then I gain Life Points equal to its attack points!
Gale blew a mighty gust that sent Volcanic Slicer back to Typhon's hand and increased Crow's Life Points by 1800.
Crow (LP 4800): And now all 3 of my Blackwings will attack you directly!
Sirocco, Bora and Gale dove in on Typhon, but then a wall of fire surrounded him that stopped all three attacks short.
Typhon: I activate the Trap Firewall! Simply by removing a Pyro-type monster from my Graveyard, I can negate an attack! I remove all 3 of my Scattershots to negate all 3 of your attacks!
Crow: I'll place one more card face-down and end my turn!
Alice (LP 3000): *draws* I'll summon the Tuner White Rabbit (Lv.4 1000/1400)! Then he'll attack you directly!
Typhon: I activate the Trap Return From a Different Dimension! By paying half of my Life Points, I can bring back any removed from play monsters! So come on back my 3 Scattershots!
Typhon paid half of his Life Points and summoned forth the Scattershots he removed from play. White Rabbit attacked one of the Scatteshots and destroyed it. The flames from the attack singed Alice a little, inflicting her with 500 points of damage from Scattershot's effect.
Alice (LP 2500): I'll place one card face-down and end my turn!
Typhon (LP 2000): *draws* I activate the Spell Card Pot of Greed to draw 2 more cards! *draws 2 cards* Then I send Blaze Accelerator to the Graveyard to activate Tri-Blaze Accelerator! Then I send it to the Graveyard to Special Summon Volcanic Doomfire (Lv.8 3000/1800)! Then I summon Volcanic Slicer again! Now, Doomfire attack Gale the Whirlwind!
Volcanic Doomfire charged a molten fireball in its mouth.
Crow: I activate the Trap Urgent Tuning! This allows me to Synchro Summon during the Battle Phase, so I tune Gale the Whirlwind with Bora the Spear to Synchro Summon Blackwing Armor Master (Lv.7 2500/1500)! He can't be destroyed in battle and I take no damage from any battles he fights!
Typhon: No matter, he can still attack your other monster!
Crow: I send Blackwing-Jetstream the Blue Sky (Lv.1 100/800) from my hand to the Graveyard to prevent Sirocco's destruction!
Volcanic Doomfire shot its fireball at Sirocco and while he survived the attack, Crow still took 1000 points of damage.
Typhon: And then I'll have Volcanic Slicer attack that White Rabbit!
Volcanic Silcer's head set on fire and used that part of his head to slash White Rabbit, destroying him and inflicting Alice with 800 points of damage.
Typhon: That ends my turn!
Nick was coughing Profusely, but he couldn't move because the Weight of the Support beam and Rubble was crushing down on him.
Nick: *Thinks: This sucks! They're dueling out there and I'm gonna die here. I should've joined Colin's stupid team! I could be leading it right now…listen to me, I sound like such a-
Suddenly, Nick Felt the Beam lift a little, just enough to slide out which he did. He saw that little May had lifted it up with all her Strength and Burned her own hands to do so. She Quickly Dropped it as soon as he was free.
Nick: May?
May: *Cough* *cough* Are you *cough* Al- *Cough* Alri- *Cough* *Cough*
Nick realized they still couldn't get to the duel, so a weakened Nick took a Weakened May and Found a Vent shaft.
Nick: Come on, Hopefully it leads outside.
Nick and May then snuck out through the large vents.
The fire crackled and another part of the room collapsed while burning. Smoke filled the room and made it difficult for everyone to breath.
Crow (LP 3800): *coughs*
Alice: *cough*
Typhon: *inhales smoke* *coughs* Oh, isn't it glorious? The smell of it makes me all tingly! There is nothing more honest than a flame burning! It keeps mankind warm in the winters and can destroy everything in its path! It is truly beautiful!
Crow: *coughs* You won't get away with this!
Typhon: Of course I will, nobody can stop me!
Crow: I will stop you!
Typhon: Will you now? Well, maybe I should just pay a visit to those little kids in the Satellite. Throw them a little bonfire.
Crow: You wouldn't dare!
Typhon: Try me!
Crow: *draws* I summon the Tuner Blackwing-Blizzard the Far North (Lv.2 1300/0)! And when he's Normal Summoned, I can bring back a Level 4 or lower Blackwing from my Graveyard in defense mode with its effects negated! I bring back Jetstream the Blue Sky! Then I tune Blizzard the Far North with Jetsream the Blue Sky and Sirocco the Dawn to Synchro Summon Black-Winged Dragon (Lv.8 2800/1600)! Now, Blackwing Armor Master will attack your Doomfire!
Armor Master dived at Volcanic Doomfire and stabbed it with its wing, leaving a Wedge Counter in its body.
Typhon: Now what was the point of that?
Crow: Because when Armor Master attacks a monster and doesn't destroy it, it leaves a Wedge Counter that I can use to decrease your monster's power to 0!
The Wedge Counter released and made Volcanic Doomfire weaker.
Crow: And that means I can finish this off with one attack! Black-Winged Dragon, attack!
The Ceiling Collapsed again right over the Duel, canceling it, separating Crow and Alice from Typhon, but also created a way to their Duel Runners.
Alice: Come on Crow!
Alice got to her roller blades and got them on. Crow turned back at Typhon who had the most arrogant smirk on him. Crow turned back to his runner, started it up and he and Alice Drove off. Typhon just lit another cigarette and walked out.
Cyla was waiting on a hill a way's away. She could see the Hotel burning in the distance.
Cyla: Oh I hope they are alright…
She then saw Crow and Alice coming down the road and she got on her Runner to meet up with them.
Cyla: There you guys are! Where are Nick and May?
Crow: I don't know! I'm sure they got out of there though!
Cyla looked down, feeling helpless. When she looked back up, she saw a man standing in the middle of the road and her Duel Runner was about to run that guy over, but the guy stopped it on a dime with his foot. She hit her head against the its console from the sudden stop while the wheels just kept moving and eventually melted from the constant friction against the concrete. As Alice passed by them, the guy grabbed her arm and threw her down onto the road.
Alice: Awhh!
Crow stopped his Duel Runner a little bit ahead and turned back to see the man wearing a fedora hat.
Raza: Now, what fun would it be to just let you guys get away? Got to make things a little easier for the Rift.
Crow: I don't know who you are, but you're gonna pay for that!
Crow suddenly felt like he couldn't breathe and he passed out from the lack of oxygen. Raza then turned back to Alice, who was on the ground and the only one still conscious.
Raza: Well, that was fun, but now I'm bored again and you're the only loose end.
Raza pulled out his special knife and he had an intent to kill in his eyes.
Alice: What do you all want with me?
Raza: Oh, it's nothing personal, it was all your mom's fault really. She asked questions she shouldn't have and knew things people are better off not knowing. So, bye-bye, Alice!
Raza lifted his knife, ready to kill her, when something caught his eye. He then leaned down and picked up Alice's fedora hat. He then smiled and placed it on her head.
Raza: You have a nice taste in hats.
Raza then disappeared into his wall of green flames, leaving Alice unharmed and the sheer shock of everything that just happened caused Alice to pass out.
Nick Kicked in the vent and clawed out. He and May had made it outside. They could see the Hotel Burning up like a towering inferno.
Nick: *cough* Looks we got out of there just in time.
May had collapsed, she wasn't breathing, Too much smoke was inhaled. Before Nick could react he felt dizzy and collapsed himself. His vision was blurry and it was difficult to see. However, he saw a pair of Black shoes heading his way, but than he blacked out.
