bopdog111: Well was a while.

Ulrich362: True, it has been.

bopdog111: With SEVENS reaching it's end, and Go Rush in development, it be fair to give this fic some highlight.

Ulrich362: Agreed, and actually I just recently managed to see Romin's latest match with Princess G... well, it wasn't easy to watch but still. So where were we?

bopdog111: Yusei just won against Jack, and now their gonna get answers from Goodwin while encountering Romin's cousin.

Ulrich362: Sounds good to me, enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, or Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS but we own the OCs!


After making sure Jack was stable for now they headed over to Goodwin's mansion all together without Sayer. Romin frowned as they did before turning to Akiza. "Should we head back?"

"Sayer doesn't mind." Akiza stated.

They soon arrived at the mansion walking in where they see Goodwin talking to someone which they looked over. Someone who Luke, Gavin, Romin, and Yuga recognized.

"What the, no way!" Yuga cried in shock seeing the person.

"How did you get here?" Luke asked.

It was Roa, Romin's cousin, and leader of the RoaRomin Band who grinned waving, "Yuga good to meet you again. Nail let me know that you decided to head to the past with Romin."

Romin frowned, "I went here first."

"Well he let me follow you guys here. Wherever here is." Roa admitted before looking to the Signers, "So who are they?"

"That's kind of complicated, but hopefully Goodwin has the answers." Yusei mentioned.

Romin cleared her throat before introducing, "This is my cousin, Roa Kassidy, the leader, and leading singer of RoaRomin."

Roa gave a thumbs up to them.

"It's nice to meet you." Luna smiled.

"You two, cutie." Roa winked to her location with a grin.

"Roa!" Romin said in annoyance at him.

"What?" Roa shrugged at her, "Can't I greet a fan the way I should?"

"Enough." Goodwin said to them which made everyone look over before saying, "This doesn't concern any of you kids, you can stay out of this meeting."

"It concerns us all Goodwin." Yusei told him. "So you may as well just tell us what's going on."

Goodwin hearing that closed his eyes before sighing, "Very well, I suppose there's little choice. Follow me." He walked off.

Blinking they followed him.

They arrived at a room before he turned around, "What you saw was a vision."

"Wait, what vision?" Luke asked hearing that.

"An ancient battle that had been on for many millennia. A war between the Crimson Dragon, and a force of Darkness known as the Earthbound Immortals." Goodwin answered.

He then proceeded to explain to them about the forces of the Netherworld, and how the army of shadows was defeated 5000 years ago by the Crimson Dragon and its allies however the event that split New Domino City from the Satellite broke the seal and the army of shadows was returning.

"Wait a second, something isn't adding up about all of this though." Gavin pointed out. "Yusei has the tail of this dragon, Luna and Akiza have the claw and foot respectively, and Jack possessed the wings right? Which means you're fighting without a head aren't you?"

"The fifth Signer has already been selected. They will join you when the time is right." Goodwin told him.

"What about the body?" Luke asked. "I mean, this dragon has one right?"

"There are only 5 Signers." Goodwin answered, "All five are already selected."

Yuga grinned. "Then we're in luck, five signers plus the six of us will definitely be enough to beat those Earthbound Immortal things."

"This isn't a game. This is life or death." Goodwin stared sternly at him.

"We already know that. But we're not gonna sit by, and let them walk all over us. We even have something they don't have." Romin pointed out.

"She's right." Luke agreed.

"What's that?" Yusei asked curiously.

Yuga grinned to them, "Rush Duel."

"It was something Yuga here created. It was a way to make Dueling less serious, and despite all the things that people tried to sham, or get rid of it, he manages to make sure it has a place." Gavin explained to them.

"I somehow doubt the forces of darkness will take the time to learn a new type of duel." Akiza pointed out.

"Well, their not gonna take over the world without beating us in it." Roa pointed out back to her.

"Well, we kept on hearing it. Maybe now can you show us how it works?" Leo asked them.

Hearing that Yuga grinned, "Alright, we can show you how far my road in Rush Dueling can go!"

"I'll be the teacher here!" Luke cried raising his arm with a grin.

"No-you are too simple, they need a logical example!" Gavin scolded him.

"Hey, I was here first, so I should explain how it works!" Romin pointed out before their eyes, she, Roa, Yuga, Luke, and Gavin started to argue about this.

"Hey stop that's enough!" Akiza snapped to them which made them turn to her.

"Romin and Yuga can show us." Yusei decided. "She was the first one here and he created it so it's only fair."

Hearing that Roa crossed his arms shrugging, "Ah well, I suppose that's true..."

"Guess you can't win em all." Luke sighed disappointed.

Yuga grinned to Romin, "You ready Romin?"

Romin nodded back with a grin as they walked before readying before Yuga's Duel Disk formed into 3 zones in the shape of a 7, while Romin's Duel Guitar shifted to 3 zones itself.

"So... Rush Duels only have three monster zones and three spell and trap zones?" Leo asked seeing that only to pause and frown.

"Well Romin explained to me how it worked before." Akiza answered.

"Watch close." Yuga grinned before asking, "Ready Romin?"

She nodded back readying as the Field appeared showing 3 zones each.

"With this, I take a level 2 or lower Psychic back to the top of my Deck!" Romin places a card before adding, "Then Sevens Road Magician goes back to the top of your Deck!"

Yuga widen his eyes as Sevens Road Magician vanished while he frowned placing it back.

"Next if CAN:D was what was placed back, both Raidacross, Hero of the Dawn, and Mystic Dealer goes back to your Deck too!" Romin grinned as Yuga frowned again placing them back shuffling which also sealed Sevens Road Magician.

"So this is how her deck works, it's amazing." Akiza admitted.

"My turn draw!" Yuga drew five cards looking before grinning.

"And that's that, it's over." Luke noted.

Yuga looked to Romin grinning, "You should remember this one Romin."

"Huh?" Romin asked confused.

"Nail helped me get this back in order due to Prototype ID Cards. Something, I want to test."

Widening her eyes Romin cried, "Wait, do you mean-"

"Yup!" Yuga raised three cards which they can see three monsters shaping as a large one from behind in the background.

"What the, what is that?" Leo questioned.

"The hesitation, the pain, and even the despair that block my way—! With dreams! And courage! And friendship! Carve open a road through them all and press onward! Maximum Summon! Come on out, Supreme Machine Magnum Overlord!"

"I send the top card of my Deck to the graveyard to activate Magnum Overlord's second Maximum Effect!" Yuga called with a grin, "Reflection Charge!" Magnum Overlord glowed bright, "Magnum Overlord's attack points goes up by the level of Esperaid the Smashing Light's level by 200!"

Yuga wins!


"Do you even need our help?" Luna asked uncertainly. "You're all so much stronger than any of us."

"Only by Rush Dueling." Luke answered, "In Normal Duels our decks are weakened a bit."

Leo notices Romin was knelling. Frowning he looked away as Yuga walked over and helped her up.

"Leo aren't you gonna help her?" Luna asked her brother seeing that.

"Yuga already helped her." Leo answered.

"Before he done that." Luna pointed out.

Leo just frowned. "Just... forget it Luna."

"Leo..." she started in a tone that lets him know she's not messing around, and wants an honest answer.

Leo looked away. "Yusei, should we go check on Jack?"

"You better listen to your sister." Yusei told him looking a little intimidated.

"It's nothing." he insisted.

Luna turned him around looking at him with a look that makes him stop what he's doing when Luna gets like this. Leo flinched. "Luna come on, we need to make sure Jack's ok."

"ANSWER ME!" that shout made him stop now, and give an honest answer.

"I know Yuga was going to help her up, he seems like a nice person and he wouldn't leave her on the ground after the duel." Leo said while flinching. "That's all."

"She's your crush isn't she?" Luna asked him seriously.

Leo's eyes widened. "What? No... of course not."

He blushed at that.

"She is, and YOU should be the one to help her!" Luna pointed out to him pointing to Romin, and Yuga who were looking over hearing the shout confused.

Yuga blinked asking Romin, "Did I do something wrong?"

"..." Romin stood still in shock for a moment before closing her eyes walking over to Leo.

Leo didn't noticed as he looked kind of scared of Luna. Noticing her behind him, Luna stopped talking looking at him which he looked confused before turning seeing Romin was there.

"Oh... you came really close to winning. That was a great duel." Leo mentioned.

She only grabbed his face pulling him close where she kissed his lips shocking everyone around them. Leo froze before frowning and pushing her away. "Don't do that."

"She's right you know." Romin told him with her hands on his shoulders, "It's not mandatory but it's nice good to do, even for growing couples."

Leo frowned. "We're not a growing couple!"

He pointed at Yuga. "You two are!"

"Uh, no we're not." Yuga admitted to him honestly raising his hands really confused what's going on.

"Me, and him are not together if that's what your worried about." Romin told him simply.

Leo frowned. "Do you think I'm an idiot?"


Ulrich362: Well, this isn't going well. Leo has a good reason to believe Yuga and Romin like each other considering how close they are.

bopdog111: The pairings here is true, he's just being stubborn.

Ulrich362: True, but it might take a bit more explanation of Romin's relationship with Yuga to help Leo realize it. He's only barely seen them together after all.

bopdog111: And no-one mentioned Yuga's Maximum that Nail fixed up for him. This one is the same one that was disintegrated in his duel with Asana, but it's not in mortal danger until then at the moment which means Yuga's free to use it before he uses Supreme Flagship Magnum Overlord, or Hyper Engine Vast Vulcan.

Ulrich362: They probably will very soon. See you in the next chapter.

bopdog111: Be sure to review!
