Me: Dang, I haven't updated in a few days. Stupid internet cord went missing.
Sky: That's lovely.
Yusei: Do Jack and I find out about Sky now?
Me: Yes, and you might be out of character.
Jack: What about me?
Me: I'm not going to tell you everything!
Jack: Hmph.
Me: Okay then, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds or whatever, but I do own Sky and maybe some of her cards.
Chapter 20
"Ugh, what happened?" I asked. My head was extremely fuzzy, and so I thought it was just my imagination when I was suddenly pinned to a wall. I realized it wasn't when a familiar voice yelled at me.
"How did you get that card?" it yelled. My vision cleared and I realized Jack was the one who had me pinned to the wall. "Well? Answer me!" he yelled.
"Jack, you should put her down. Maybe then she'll talk," Yusei said.
"But then she'll run away and we won't get any answers Yusei," Jack bellowed, which happened to be right into my ear.
"Keep yelling and you won't have ears to hear the answers with," I threatened.
"Grr, well answer my question," Jack said, if only a few decibels lower than before. Before I answered, I removed the illusions from myself.
"I'm assuming you mean how I got Pyrus Titanium Dragonoid, right? Um, I think I found it in a trash heap back in Satellite about 17 years ago," I said.
"Impossible, that card belonged to a friend of mine up until three years ago," Jack said.
"I'm absolutely certain that I found this card 17 years ago, along with the cards in one of my decks," I said, holding out the Bakugan one. Yusei looked at it with disbelief.
"All of these cards belonged to her, every last one of them," Yusei muttered. Jack slammed me against the wall again.
"Why do you have a perfect copy, down to the rarest card, of my old friend's deck?" he asked, also raising his voice.
Time to come out with it hard, I thought. "I didn't copy anyone's deck. Oh, and I'm pretty sure your next question is 'Who are you?'" I said, sighing. "My name isn't Silver, as you've probably found out already. My name is Sky. Yes, my name is Sky Fudo and I'm not dead!" I continued.
Both Jack and Yusei were stunned to silence. I lowered my head. "Yusei, Jack, I'm sorry I made you guys think I was dead for three years," I said. "There-there was something after me. I-It said if I didn't leave it would kill me. Not just me, but also you Yusei," I said.
"I couldn't stay in Satellite, but if I just ran to another part there was a chance you could find me. I didn't know what to do. And then I had a vision. I knew that what happened on the cliff was going to happen three days before," I continued.
"What happened was that I had lost consciousness. For some reason when that happens, my pulse gets too weak for a person to detect. Again Yusei, I'm really sorry," I finished.
The two young men, specifically Yusei, were both shocked at what I said. "So there was something after you in Satellite and it led to you pretty much faking your death?" asked Jack.
"That about wraps it up in a nutshell," I said. I glanced over at Yusei, who was actually crying. I assumed they were tears of joy like I had over Goodwin returning my deck.
"You don't need to cry Yusei," I said. Reaching forward, I wiped away the tears. "Do you accept my apology?" I asked.
"I-I do Sky," Yusei muttered. And then he embraced me. After a few minutes he let go.
"I think it's time for my next match," Yusei said.
"Good luck then. Also, I'm going back to Satellite. I think Crow deserves to know that I'm alive," I said.
"He does. Well, I guess I'll see you later," Yusei said, dashing out of the room. Jack followed him after giving me one last look.
That was easier than I thought it would be, I thought.
It's always easier to tell the truth, Reshiram said.
Yes it is, I agreed.
Why don't you go to your friend in Satellite now? asked Reshiram.
Good idea, I replied, racing to where I had stored my Duel Runner. "I play the Spell Teleport. Take me to Satellite," I said.
A light flashed, and I was in the junkyard of Satellite. "Haven't been here in a long time," I said to myself. Then I heard someone shouting and banging on something from behind one of the trash mounds.
Curious, I made my way around the mound and found a gigantic crate sitting there. "Can anyone hear me?" came a voice from inside. "Let us out of here!" another said.
"Erm, I'll try to help," I called to the people inside the crate. I examined the lock keeping the trailer shut. It was one of those fancy electronic ones. Thankfully, Sydney had taught me that most electronic locks give when they are shocked. I had also bought a very powerful shock pen after that.
I dug through my bag until I found the pen and gave the lock a good shock. It wasn't strong, so it fell apart. "Okay, it's open," I said. The door flew open, whacking me in the face, and four people came out of it.
"I told you someone would hear us," the youngest one said.
"I'm just glad we're out of that crate," another said.
"Can we go get some food now?" the largest one asked.
The fourth one was currently trying to hug the ground. "What're you doing Nervin?" the youngest asked.
"I, er, have claustrophobia," Nervin, the one trying to hug the ground replied.
I walked off because the four weren't paying me any attention. Just as I was going to get my Duel Runner the youngest one said "Hey, we never thanked you for rescuing us." He noticed my Duel Runner. "Cool Runner. I wonder how Yusei is doing," he said.
These four know Yusei? I thought. "I'm looking for someone that goes by the name of Crow. Do you think you can show me where he is?" I asked.
"Oh yeah, we're good friends with Crow," the youngest one said.
"Shut it Rally, for all we now she could be a murderer," the one in the bandana said.
"Come on Blitz, she freed us from that crate. She has to be a kind person," Rally, the youngest, said.
"I'm still hungry!" whined the big guy.
"I might have something," I said, digging through my bag. I found an energy bar, still in its wrapping. "Will this work?" I asked.
"Yeah!" the guy said. He then proceeded to eat the bar, wrapping included.
"Wait a minute, you're supposed to take the wrapper off first," I said.
"Wha fwas fat?" the guy said, already having stuffed the bar in his mouth.
"Oh, never mind. Could you take me to see Crow now?" I asked.
"Come on, his place is pretty far from here," said Rally. Before we left, a semi-broken TV turned on. It was showing Yusei and Jack's duel.
"Hey look it's Yusei!" exclaimed the big guy.
"Sweet, we can still watch him duel," said Blitz.
"Pound Jack to the ground!" shouted Rally.
"That traitor deserves a good beating," Nervin said.
They must not be on good terms with Jack, I thought. Suddenly the TV decided it had enough and shut off in the middle of the duel.
"Work you stupid thing! I want to see who wins!" Blitz shouted, kicking the TV.
"That's not how you make a TV work," I said. I realized I still had my shock pen out and jabbed it into the power source of the TV. It turned back on after a few good shocks.
"We have our winner folks!" MC was saying. "I give you the new champion, Satellite's Shooting Star, Yusei Fudo!"
"Aw, we missed the end of the duel," said Rally.
"Hey, can you take me to see Crow now?" I asked.
"I guess so," Blitz said. The five of us left the junkyard after I hid my Duel Runner. I didn't want Sector Security or some other person finding it. After an hour of walking we reached Crow's place. This is it, I thought.

Me: And that's the chapter.
Yusei: What's up with the shock pen and Tank eating a wrapped granola bar?
Me: A result of watching ICarly too much and a bit of boredom.
Sky: When you're bored it's never good for us.
Nervin: Why'd you have me hug the ground?
Me: Does it really matter? I get these really random ideas that I have to fit into something.
Nervin: And that had to include me embarrassing myself?
Me: I think it was funny. Anywho, please review. Maybe I'll update faster…
