Chapter 4
Yusei fought back as hard as he could, but the bike wouldn't move the way he wanted. And despite being a man with a need for speed, Yusei would have loved nothing more than to slow down. He was going so fast, his wheels had caught on fire.
Yusei found himself in the warehouse district coming to a sudden stop, launching him off his bike and on the pavement. Then his eyes started steaming.
Yusei stood up gripping his head as it pounded. His body temperature went through the roof and started to give off smoke. Then his eyes turned from blue to orange as he threw his head back, screaming bloody murder. The skin on his face started to pop off like popcorn, leaving fire where it once was. The orange pads on his outfit burst into flame and Yusei's face started to itch as more skin popped off. The bigger the holes got the more of his skull was exposed. The itching got so bad Yusei started to tear his hair and skin off, all while laughing maniacally.
What was left of his hair burst into flame, melting the rest of his skin off until nothing but his flaming skull remained. Even as a skull his Facility Mark still remained on his face. It started from his eye socket, down his cheek bone, further down his teeth, ending at his jawline though it looked more like a scorch mark.
The Rider looked up at his target as he nonchalantly walked up to him with an evil grin.
"Looking for me?" He said.
He was young, maybe a year older than Crow. And he was well dressed. He wore a dark green tailcoat that looked like crocodile leather and a white dress shirt underneath it. Around his neck was black ascot with a gold Morningstar symbol in the center. His dress shoes were black with gold wingtips at the toes. He wore black dress pants that were pressed and very expensive looking. In his hand was a black, metal cane with a gold handle in the shape of a skull.
The sides and back of his head were shaved while the top of his head held black hair with red tips. He had it brushed back neatly and a small batch of hair on his chin. His eyes were a bright orange and he had several piercings in his ears.
The Rider kept his jaw clenched and began to make his way to him.
"Guess we won't be exchanging any pleasantries." He said smirking.
The Rider went to grab his collar but he responded quickly by smacking his hand away with his cane and pushed him further into the warehouse right into a box of pipes with his other hand.
The Rider growled and stood up from the box, grabbing a pipe and holding it up like a bat. He tightened his grip, causing the metal to burst into flames. His opponent slid something on the hilt of his cane and drew out a sword from it.
The two began to swing their weapons at each other like two sci-fi samurai knock offs in a volcano. However one of them had more experience with his weapon. So he sweep kicked The Rider and vanished in a puff of smoke before he could get back up.
The Rider growled and dropped the pipe before bringing his fingers to his lips and summoning his host's Duel Runner. It drove itself up to the side of him with its wheels still slightly ablaze. The Rider placed his hands upon it bringing the flames higher and changing the frame of the bike. The red melted away leaving it a simple grey metal. The front changed to look like a dragon head with the handlebars shifting to give it horns. The circular area near the top bent backwards with loud creaks to cover the back wheel making the illusion of a tail. The eyes of the dragon head burst into flame as The Rider sat on his new vehicle and drove off into the night to find his target, leaving a trail of fire behind him.
Let me know if you understood the sci-fi samurai reference. Also I had to look at Yusei's Duel Runner for over half an hour until I came up with a good design for The Rider, so you better appreciate it. (I just kidding. Pwease review. :3) This is all I have written for now so please be patient, I'll… hopefully be able to write it soon.
