Leads right after the previous chapter, just like the regular plotline. Sorry for the LONG ASS WAIT
Cristina's Pov~
I tried not to look worry, but it wasn't really working for me at the moment. Once someone close to you is in a life or death situation, you can't help but feel worried. Screw that, you have to be worried.
"Yusei is a good duelist." I told myself with a frown, "He can kick Kalin's ass." I really needed to hold onto that belief.
"Cristina, you can look at the duel, step-by-step, through your duel runner's monitor." Crow shouted to me as I snapped out of my thoughts. I looked over to him as he was staring intently at his monitor that had shined a glow onto his face. I looked down at my duel runner and pressed one button on the monitor that suddenly turned on. I blinked in surprise and smiled at bit, slouching on my bike as I stared at the format of the duel.
"Hopefully, this can calm you a little bit." Crow added on as I rolled my eyes and smirked a bit, "I am not sure if I can deal with an protective and angry Cristina."
"You lasted this long enough, I am sure you can last for a few more hours." I replied and crossed my arms across the handle bars. I let out a sigh and lifted my right hand, gently nibbling on the tip of my finger, my feet making a repeating rhythm against the floor as I waited for the first move to be set. I wish I could follow them along the path of the track that they were on, but, I realize that the path is a winding one with a lot of turns, meaning there would be parts where I couldn't see them.
I looked up to the sky as Kalin activated his monster's, Infernity Archfiend, special power that would attack Yusei directly. I watched as a purple symbol was probably placed around the area of Yusei. I squeezed my eyes a bit as I expected a large attack. "Damn it, hang on, Yusei." I said, bitting the tip of my thumb tighter and glared. I watched as an inferno type ball had formed from the purple symbol in the sky just before forming into a large red hand as if it came from the gates of hell. I saw a trap card being flipped open at Yusei's side and my eye's widened.
"Yes!~" I cheered with a grin; he didn't lose any life points, but that was just for now. I really hope this just ends soon...
"This is agonizing." I groaned to myself, seeing Yusei being attacked again and again by Kalin's attacks, "You were friends with this jerk?" I looked over to Crow with a slight glare as he rubbed the back of his hair.
"It was a long time ago." Crow replied as I growled and focused back onto my screen, but that didn't last long.
"Crow! Cristina!" Someone called out as I looked over my shoulder. I got off of my bike and waved at the group I recognized. I couldn't help but smile at them. I saw that Rally was leading the mini group with a determined look; that adorable kid.
"Guys, where's Yusei? I don't see him anywhere." Rally asked in worry as I raised my hand and pointed towards the purple trailed path.
"That's where he is..." I said in a glum voice as Rally looked confused.
"He's dueling!" The group said in shock as I chuckled lamely.
"I really don't think there would be another reason why he is there." I muttered under my breath, shaking my head, "But this isn't some ordinary duel; it's life or death."
"Whose the guy he is battling?" Tank asked as I sighed and ruffled my hair. "It someone named Kalin...you heard of him?" I asked, crossing my arms.
"Yeah, as in 'let's-take-over-Satellite' Kalin?" Tank responded as I slowly nodded; that seemed accurate.
"I thought that they locked him up for good and threw away the key." Nervin said as I smirked dully.
"Look's like they didn't throw it away far enough." Blitz said as I nodded.
"Is he the one who is behind the big glowy thing in the sky?" Rally asked as I looked at the sky again, "And your arm is glowing, Cristina!"
"Yeah, that always happens when weird stuff like this happens." I said with a sigh, "This is the dark signer thins Yusei was talking about before. We just found out that Kalin is part of the group."
"Kalin is using some dark mojo to trap Yusei in this seal, and forcing him to duel. Yusei only has 1800 life-points and Kalin has 4000." Crow added on as I smirked, "What is it?"
"Did you just say dark mojo? Couldn't find any other better words?" I mocked as he smirked lightly.
"Oh, shut up; I'd like to see you come up with something better." Crow said as the smirk still was evident on my face, "I came up with it on the spot..."
I smiled and looked down at the track. "So...you guys were a dueling gang here and took out the other dueling gangs, but then...Kalin decided to become more ruthless and took it too far." I explained, looking over to Crow as he nodded.
"At least you got the gist of it." Crow replied as I smiled sadly. Kalin is having revenge because of that. It was pretty sad, but I guess nothing works out in the end. Such a shame; I could definitely see that group friends for a long time. From the view of the track, Yusei was losing traction of his bike and it doesn't seem like it will last. I was worried about the outcome. The bike; it could be fixed and the parts could be replaced. Yusei...well, Yusei would have some bruises and such.
"Yusei, you better be careful or else!" I shouted as loud as I could, looking at the game in concern.
"I don't think threatening Yusei while he is battling is a good idea." Tank said as I smirked and put my hands on my hips.
"He'll understand that he needs to step it up or he will get the wrath of my fist." I said with a grin as Tank sweatdropped. If it was my words or the fact that there was Rally and the others supporting him, he had somehow managed to put Stardust dragon upon the field; that was always a good thing. I glanced at the monitor of Rally and smiled, seeing that Stardust dragon was fully powered and Kalin's life-points going down dramatically.
"Now, I activate my trap, Synchro Destructor. Now when my dragon destroys your monster in battle, you take damage equal to half that monster's attack point, and then, if the monster I destoryed was a Synchro monster, you get hit again for the same amount of damage." Yusei said as I smiled.
"Finally, he is hitting back!" I said, pumping my fist in the air before fist pumping with Crow. Yusei was finally finding a way to have an advantage of Kalin and hopefully, ending this long-drawn duel soon. "Knew he would take my threatening manner in a good way."
"Whatever you say to make you feel better, Cristina." Crow joked, "All I know is that Kalin is going to be served a double dosage of his own medicine! If the move is successful, he will lose about 3000 life-points." I leaned towards the monitor to see that Kalin lost some of his life-points, but he was still standing as if he didn't take any damage. Not only that, but he had a trap to help him, then he had the nerve to laugh about it. I swear, once this is over... I am going to take care of this Kalin guy once this duel is over.
"I never like Kalin." Tank said as his eyebrows narrowed with irritation.
"He may have survived that attack, he's still going to be finished." Blitz said as I had to agree.
"That's right; he has no monsters on his field while Yusei has Stardust dragon on his field." I added.
"I bet a Salami sandwich that the facedown card on Yusei's field is Scrap-Iron Scarecrow." Nervin said, "After that, it is all over."
"Yeah, but then again, Yusei is smart. Yusei isn't going to be an idiot and just think it will be over in a flash. If anything, Kalin has something up his sleeve or he will go down swinging; whatever comes first." I argued, rubbing my hair in frustration, "Besides, we can't forget that time when Kalin added a card to his hand; who know what it is."
"What do you think it is?" Tank asked as I pondered for a moment.
"Something that I know I won't like. He's being all hush-hush about it; I hate it." I said, not afraid to show my displeasure...
"Come on out, everybody!" Kalin shouted as I raised an eyebrow; has he finally gone on the deep-end? I won't be surprised if he did... I looked at the track as was taken back.
"Am I seeing things, or are there...people on the track?" I asked with confusion, "Where the hell did they come from?"
"Trust me, Cristina, I see people too, and where they came from; your guess is as good as mine...or they could be the missing people of the Satellite." Crow replied as I frowned...
"They look like the the pawns that Yusei first verse in the parking lot." I mumbled under my breath, "I didn't realize that there were so many of them..."
I winced as I heard them started to scream in pain. Their bodies had turned into a bright purple before going into the air had forming into one central spot.
"Their energy has been assimilated! And now, I summon Ccapac Apu upon the world!" Kalin said as I raised an eyebrow. Ccapac Apu? I have never heard of something like that. I watched as an object formed in the air and it looked like a mechanical beating heart. That all ended once it had formed a large beam of light that looked like it reached high in the skies. I put my hands to shield the wind from getting into my eyes. I felt my mouth widen in shock as I watched a creature of some kind come from the ground.
"It's...it's enormous." I said in a speechless tone, not seeing anything that big. I saw the large Ccapac Apu reaching out to attack Yusei by Kalin's orders as my heart to beat faster.
"Yusei!" I yelled out, hoping he found a way to counterattack of defend himself. I saw that he used his Stardust dragon to attack Apu, but Stardust dragon went through the hand of the monster like it was transparent. I saw that he activated his Scrap-Iron Scarecrow.
"I don't think something so small like that can defend against a monster as big as the Turbo stadium, maybe even taller than that; I don't doubt it.
My breath hitched once I saw Yusei tumble off his bike and through the dirt. I looked down at my mark, seeing that it stopped glowing; that battle is over... I didn't bother to wait for the others as I dashed towards my bike. That bastard better be alive once I get down there. All I can tell is that he is hurt from what my mark is telling me...
"Cristina, don't rush in-" I cut off Crow's words.
"You can't stop me; remember, you still have to deal with my protectiveness and anger, and trust me; you'll have to deal with my anger a lot more than my protectiveness." I snapped, hopping onto my bike before revving the engine loudly, "Catch up if you can, but I am not waiting for anyone." With that, I raced down the mountain, hoping that once I reached the bottom, the track will erase and maybe, I could run over Kalin's body with my bike. I looked up as Ccapac Apu was now gone and so was the purple track. I sped down faster, ignoring the multiple scratched my duel runner was earning form my speed.
"...Whatever that tournament called you, that stupid Shooting Star from Satellite; they should change it to falling star." Kalin cackled, "Why don't you look at that, it's the girl who played with fire-"
"Why don't you keep your mouth shut before I do something I regret." I threatened with my eyes narrowed as he laughed harder, "If it wasn't for the connection you have with Yusei, I would have made you wished that you didn't get involve."
"With that attitude; I am surprised that you are not a dark signer, but don't worry about this connection between me and Yusei; it has been severed for a long time." He growled as I bit my lip, "Better look after him; who knows what might have happened to him. Broken bones or such; just make sure he's in better conditions to fight me, and tell him to make sure he duels as if it was his last time; I don't want a repeat of today." He gave Yusei one more mocking glare before smirking at me. He turned his bike around and drove off.
"Following him is not a good idea, Cristina." I told myself before getting off my bike and dashing towards Yusei, "You better be breathing." I went to his side and went on my knees, scanning his body for any...awkward arm positions or such; if anything was going in the wrong way. I heard him grunt before looking over my shoulder, seeing the other catch up. I didn't have any practice or knowledge about first-aid, but I will try my best. I removed his helmet as careful as I could as I saw him close his eyes in pain. I turned him onto his back as he groaned louder. I looked like a gaping fish once I saw the shard in his abdomen. That was never good.
"Sorry." I said quickly as he tried to move his hand, "Don't try to move!"
"M-my gut!" He replied as I saw the others.
"Cristina, how is he?" Rally asked as I shook my head. Not too good.
"We need someone who is good in medicine!" I said in a urgent voice. I heard a whirring sound and saw Crow's bike near us.
"Martha's the only one!" Crow said as I looked confused, but decided to ask later; hopefully, I will be filled in on the way. I backed up as Tank and Blitz carried Yusei carefully over to Crow's bike, "Cristina, you coming with or what? If you are, then hurry up and get on your bike!"
"Hold on!" I said, looking around frantically before going over to Yusei's bike. I bend near the wreckage of it and saw my black helmet. It was scratched, but was in decent condition. I ran towards my bike, almost falling over my feet, but kept it steady. I hopped onto my bike and nodded towards Crow.
"Stay safe, guys!" I warned before following Crow, still can't shaking the shard piece in his stomach.
I followed Crow to this large house and I was surprised that it was in the middle of nowhere, but it was fine with me. I got off my bike and jogged over to Yusei, looking down at the shard. "How are you holding up?" I asked in worry as he looked over at me with one eye opened slightly.
"I-..I had better days." He said as I forced a smile.
"I am sure; is that the only place you are feeling pain?" I asked as he paused and grunted.
"Don't worry about me too much-"
"All arguments and words from you are invalid from this point. That's your fault for being friends with me." I said as he gave a small smile.
"I..I should have known." He struggled to say as I nodded.
"Try not to say too much and keep yourself awake." I told him before leaning over to kiss his forehead.
"I really doubt about going to sleep...with a shard...in my side." He said sarcastically as I smiled. I looked over my shoulder once Crow started to bang on the door. I watched as the door opened, and a middle-aged woman opened it. I was kind of surprised. I was expecting...not to offend her...but someone more younger, but this was fine with me. As long as she can help. I saw that she was looked over here and saw the slumped form of Yusei.
"Is that Yusei?!" She called out in worry, "What's going on?"
"It's a long story, but we need to keep him warm." I said as she looked at me for a brief moment and nodded.
"I need hands out here, people; come help me." Martha ordered as I looked to who else was in the house, "Get Yusei inside."
Please Martha, your our only hope...
I rubbed Rally's back in comfort as we sat on the steps of the house, everything having a sad tone. We were all awaiting for some news that Yusei will be fine and recover; even Blister was here. I didn't ask on why Rally and the others were only in their boxers, but I will ask once the time seems appropriate. I watched as Rally stared at the helmet that was Yusei with a depressed expression. I sighed and leaned more lazily against the steps, hoping that Yusei will make it out of the surgery okay again...
Some way want to kill me, but I am truly sorry. I was neglecting this after a while and had some SERIOUS writer block, but I worked my way through it. Yes, there will be mistakes, yes, this follows the plotline. And yes, most questions will be answered in the next chapter~
Umm..yes, there is a shard in Yusei's abdomen, might make the next episode bloody. Reason is because I saw the japanese version and there was a shard, unlike the 'clean' version. CLEAN VERSION SUCKS~
Review and Rate please~
