The Dark Sky

Chapter 4: Ruby Eyed Spider & Emerald Lizard

The heart of Neo Domino city is the throne of where the Dark Signers reside. They reside in what formally was a facility where Rex Goodwin, the old leader of Neo Domino, to precedence of protecting his people; however with his disappearance Neo Domino quickly fell under the control of the Dark Signers. At this point many believe that Goodwin had been captured by the Dark Signers; beyond that no one wants to speculate on.

In the conference room the leader of the Dark Signers was sitting, waiting for someone. This man was Roman Goodwin: the brother of Rex Goodwin, what some would call the epitome of evil, what one would call the most powerful Duelist, and the person responsible for the death of Yuusei Fudo. Roman was waiting patiently for whomever he was waiting for, that was when the doors to the room opened revealing Misty Tredwell. Misty was formally a famous psychic, but really was a Dark Signer under all her fame. Misty walked towards her conference chair and sat down, waiting for something out of Roman.

"Greetings Roman," Misty greeted with a form of respect in her voice.

"Greetings Misty," Roman treated her the same formality. "May you please report on your activities?"

"Yes," Misty agreed. "Recently I have been able to convert about 50 more civilians, my men has also quelled a recent rebellion, finally, unfortunately, there hasn't been any information on the Signers."

"I believe no one is willing to divulge that kind of information," Roman conferred. "We just have to give them a reason to do so." Roman's demeanor seemed to have changed now, Misty being able to sense the tone of his voice. "Misty are you grateful for the power the Earthbound Immortals have granted to you?"
"Of course," Misty's voice was soft. "Thanks to this power I was able to destroy the psychic duel ring that my brother was sent too, and with this power I will destroy Akiza Izinski."

"I do believe a part of that ring's destruction was also aided by Carley Carmine," Roman stated.

"Yes," Misty became a bit uncomfortable. "It was her form of gratitude for allowing her to receive the blessings of the Earthbound Immortals. If anything the destruction of the ring was swifter with Carley's help."

"I see," Roman leans back on his chair. "Now what are your opinions on Kalin Kessler?"

"I believe he is bitter for not being able to exact his revenge on Yuusei Fudo himself, now turning towards subjugation on anything he can," Misty explains. "However, his recent actions are more calculated rather than spontaneous."

"When you were absent Misty, Kalin had taken a large flood of pawns to the Satellite," Roman explains. "From the pawns memory it seems to be a Turbo Dueler, but this person did not have any description of the Signers. When I spoke to Kalin about this, he initially feigned ignorance, but admitted it was for fun. What are your thoughts on this?"

"I think he has more in mind rather than just for the fun of it all," Misty answers.

"I agree with your sentiments, but you should also keep an eye on Ms. Carmine," Roman says watching Misty's expressions.

"Why is that necessary?" Misty asked calmly, despite her initial shock.

"Carley isn't the same like the most of us who fight for revenge, and Kalin may be able to influence her, and you may already know where I'm going with this Tredwell," Roman explains.

". . . I understand I will report if the two of them make any strange actions," Misty was about to leave, before Roman spoke up.

"I'll leave it in your hands if Carley is acting suspicious, Kalin's actions on the other hand should be reported directly to me," Roman ordered. Allowing Misty to now leave. As she left Greiger, entered the room. Greiger himself doesn't have much, but civilians are more calm when he arrives. Greiger actually cares for the civilians, and is responsible for food distribution, he is also rarely duels with his Earthbound Immortal.

"You wanted me Roman," Greiger bowed. Roman getting off his seat and walked towards him.

"Yes Greiger, if you would follow me," Roman begins to lead Greiger into a sub-section of the facility where the only source of light is flickering lights. "I understand you are more leniant when it comes to dueling with Chacu Challhua and that is fine. Though, I know you are a valued asset to the Dark Signers." Roman stops in the darkest section of the facility.

"Where are we Roman?" Greiger asks.

"Here is where everything shall begin, I want you to be a part of that Greiger. Behold!" soon the room is engulfed by a bright array of light , what is revealed frightens Greiger yet gives him awe.


Side Story: Misty's Fans

After her meeting with Roman, Misty was exhausted from the taxing conversation. As she sat in the lounge, two pawns immediately accompanied her.

"Is everything fine Ms. Tredwell?" one asked.

"Is there something you require?" the other asked.

"No everything is fine," Misty said picking a book to read.

"You sure there is nothing I can do for you?" one pawn nudged the other.

"What do you mean "I," it's "we," the other argued.

"Well I can assist Ms. Tredwell on my own thank you," the other gloated.

"What is that suppose to mean? I can take care of Misty far better than you ever can," as the two begin to bicker, Misty was calmly reading her book.

"This is why I hate taking pawns who were my fans," Misty thought. "Maybe I should brainwash them, it would save me my head.
