Now that Armstrong is beaten, and that Dan was able to help Chojiro what can they do now to be out of the Facility? Let's find out here.
Also I noticed this fic has now gotten 40,000 views! Thank you!
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V but I own Dan, and any other OC!
Dan was in the Cafeteria Hall calmly eaten some good food that Primo had given him, and his friends. It was a day after his tough duel against Armstrong, and had managed to win a victory. Dan had gotten back to his Cell with his room-mates, and constantly worried over him due to the electrocution he had endured from Armstrong, and checked in the case for his shock to be his Decks. He doesn't know how they got back for him but he is glad it happened. Of course he tried to give his Facility Deck back to Primo but he told him he can have it so he can remember that he had saved the Facility from more of Armstrong's tyrannical rule.
Ray was also relieved, and happy that Dan is recovering, and has his Decks back now promising to protect him from whatever danger that Dan goes against. Chojiro is also grateful for Dan for risking his freedom to clear Chojiro's name, and has reverted back to his old ways as Hero Chojiro which Shinji, and Crow were glad about, and Primo in turn started aiding the Lancers to do whatever he can to help them.
"Thanks again for helping us Primo." Yuya smiled to Team 5D's former enemy.
"It's my pleasure. I owe it to Dan for risking his freedom, and not abandon his friends for his desires." Primo grinned to him, "And for now on, I seek atonement for my previous crimes against Team 5D's, and New Domino."
"Well it's good to hear your helping us now." Yusei smiled to him, "We do need it."
"This ain't fair!"
Hearing that they turned their attention to where they see two Officers dragging a Prisoner off who was protesting he didn't do anything only to be ignored by the Guards.
"Word on the yard is his crew was plannin' a breakout without him." one of the two robed Prisoners told Primo.
"A breakout?" Julia asked hearing that.
Chojiro frowned, "Selfish fools. They don't think about what happens to the ones. who get left behind."
"What does happen?" Kit asked him curious.
"Whenever a Prisoner gets caught planning or trying to escape, his pals gets punished, too." Chojiro answered grimly shocking them, "The guards round them all up, drag them off and nobody ever sees them again."
And that there is an obstacle the Lancers, and Team 5d's need to get over in order to be free.
(Cue Theme: Hyper Drive)
Going fast makes me feel alive.
My heart beats in hyper drive.
Do you think you can win?
Only if I lose.
Just let destiny choose.
[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.
Take a shot at me runnin' side by side.
It's a blur... as I go by.
[Chorus]
I can hear you breathin'.
I can see you comin'.
I can feel the wind.
It's blowing me around.
See the sun arising.
Fire in the sky.
Greatness thrusts itself into our lives.
Dan was back in his cell after eating for rest looking over his Decks. No cards were missing so that's a good thing, and with his added Facility Deck it makes 5 Decks. Primo told him he's welcome to edit his decks with the cards he gathered in the Facility but said that he has his own method of editing his decks. Armstrong did gone down but something was still bothering him. It was the man that they see at the end of the duel. Dan knows that he's suspicious from the get-go, and assumes it's Roget the one who had destroyed the Satellite, and had undone all of Yusei's hard work to have them both in Harmony creating a division once more.
Before he can continue having these thoughts he heard a knock that made him look over to see it was Yusei, and Akiza, "Are we bothering you?"
"No. I was just making sure I don't have anything missing." Dan smiled putting his cards back, and shutting the case.
"Uh-huh." Yusei nodded as they walked, and sat in front of him, "Dan after everything you done for us, and risking your life so you can beat Armstrong I am grateful but putting yourself in danger like that is dangerous."
"I can't just let him do what he pleases." Dan told him, "Besides I gotta manage I do what I can. Like how you, and the others were against the Dark Signers, and Illaster."
"We know." Akiza nodded, "And we're proud at that but if one of these days you'll mess up bad?"
"I'll be okay guys. I know the consequences but rather then being fearful of them their actually a reason why I am fighting." Dan told them, "I won't let anyone suffer, and help them as best as I could."
"Your a good kid Dan." Yusei smiled to him, "You really are a mature man in a kid's body."
"Is that a problem?" Dan asked him curiously.
"No. It's rather a big accomplishment." Yusei smiled before frowning, "And your past that you were in that position before meeting us... I'm glad we had given you hope."
Dan nodded at that smiling.
Meanwhile...
Roget was in his office placing a White Pawn on his Chess Board where a voice stated, "Director Roget. We've analyzed the entry forms for the Friendship Cup and got a hit on those two fugitives you were looking for."
"Ahh, how interesting. These two mice have come out of hiding." Roget smirked looking at a holographic screen which shows Zuzu, and Yugo, "Approve them for entry into the tournament."
"Yes, sir... Right away." the woman said before shutting down.
"Those two are in for the ride of their life. Unfortunately, it will come to a crashing conclusion." Roget smirked and then picked up a Black Chess Piece looking at it, 'It matters not if that brat had his cards back suddenly... I have already gotten more then enough analyzes for Sergey...'
With Sergey he was training the Deck he had gotten with the power that Dan's cards had given them, and called, "Rise up!"
At that a silhouette of a huge monster with blue lines on it appeared behind him roaring as Sergey laughed evilly.
Back at the Facility...
Dan was blinking surprised by what looks like a big circus tent in the cafeteria hall with Chojiro giving commands, "Where did that...?"
"I told you to stay out!" Dan turned to see Crow was grabbing Yuya's shirt tight telling him, "We're not friends anymore!"
"Hey!" Dan called which caught their attention, "Crow what are you doing?"
Crow grunted letting go before saying, "I'm only in here 'cause of Yuya and his pals."
He walked off as Yuya watched on in shock, "Crow!"
"What was that about?" Dan asked Yuya worried.
"He... He is planning a jailbreak." Yuya answered Dan surprising him, "And... Is it really my fault he's put in here?"
"No Yuya it isn't." Yusei told him walking over, "Crow wants to get back to Tarren, Amanda, and Frank."
"But that isn't an excuse to blame Yuya." Dan told him.
Yusei only nodded saying, "I'll go talk to him."
He walked off as Dan looked on worried. It's understandable that worrying about who you care about can make you do really dangerous, and crazy things just as Crow have done wanting to keep Amanda, Tarren, and Frank safe from Sector Security no matter the cost even if it means his life.
Later...
Spotlights shine on the circus tent as Chojiro, Yuya, and Sylvio were getting ready to duel as Dan looked on. He turned to Crow who was with Shinji, and some guy who he learned was Damon looking like their working. Walking over Dan asked, "Crow? Can we talk?"
Crow turned before saying, "Fine. What is it?"
"You were a bit harsh their with Yuya." Dan told him, "I understand that your worried about Tarren, Frank, and Amanda like you did with the other kids under your wing but it wasn't right for you to do that."
Crow sighed, "I know. But Roget had made all things worse then before what they were after Yusei's success. It isn't just I want to get back... The kids at the Satellite... They were caught in it's destruction! And I promised them they'll be okay with me!"
That revelation made Dan's eyes widen in shock, and he heard Ray's shocked gasp. Crow had lost the kids that were always under his care from Roget's destruction of the Satellite. And now he wants to make sure that Tarren, Frank, and Amanda aren't caught in his crossfire. Dan suddenly feels the feeling like he had been through it before. Like losing something or someone you really care about... That can be very devastating on people.
Dan walked, and patted Crow's back, "I'm so sorry..."
Crow sighed before gently smiling, "It's alright... I shouldn't have yelled at Yuya... I just want to make sure to get to live in peace..."
"And that will happen. But let us help you out." Dan told him.
Crow thought about it before shrugging with a smile, "Okay you can come along."
Dan smiled nodding before walking back to where Chojiro, and Yuya are facing an Action Card. Suddenly a whistle was blown as they turned their attention to where Crow, Shinji, and caught trying to get away. A guard walked forward smirking, "Looks to me like... you've been misbehaving. That's bad news for you. Very bad!"
Dan ran, and got in front of Crow surprising them.
"Get out of the way kid!" the guard snapped to him.
Dan stand not flinching before... Stomping hard on the guard's foot making the guard scream holding his foot jumping back, and forth before glaring running to Dan who held a hand stopping the guard before kicking his shin making him howl again jumping back. The inmates find this very amusing as one called, "Rumble time!"
At that while the guards are fighting the inmates, and things a hand grabbed Dan's collar from behind, and pull him up to the vent to see it was Crow who had a stern look, "That was a crazy stunt."
"People always do crazy things when their worried." Dan replied with a smile.
"*sigh* I'll let that slide." Crow sighed before saying, "Come on."
He nodded as they crawled out. They continued until they used a pipe area where three armored troopers jumped in. "Stop right there you lawbreakers!"
"Who are they?" Dan asked seeing them.
"Looks like the Stomptroopers." Crow said seeing them, "The Facility's Special Guards if someone tries to escape."
"Which means their gonna stop us." Shinji glared.
Crow said, "Not if I can help it!"
He activated his Duel Disk to rebel.
"Battle Royal Mode engage." the duel disk announced.
"DUEL!"

Crow, Dan, and Celina wins the duel!
"...Okay... Let's not make this girl mad." Crow said in shock seeing this.
Celina took a couple of breaths as Dan ran to her, "Celina are you alright?"
"I'm okay. Are you hurt?" Celina asked him worried checking over.
"No I'm fine." Dan answered her, "Thanks for that. But man you totally destroyed them."
Celina paused turning to the three defeated Officers, "I... don't know what got into me."
"You'll have plenty time to think once we're out." Shinji said as they nodded running out.
Later...
"Yuya, glad to see you could join the party." Crow said seeing them running to the docks, "Was getting worried there for a sec."
"So was I." Yuya agreed nodding.
"It's just about time. Our welcoming committee should be here soon." Damon said looking out as a light started blinking, "It's them!"
"Then let's go!" Trudge called ready to swim.
Dan didn't move as Yusei asked, "Is something wrong?"
"I can't swim." Dan said sheepishly.
"Come on." Celina said kneeling as he got on her back as they started to swim to the signal.
Suddenly spotlights shined on them as they heard someone call, "The jig is up! We have you surrounded!"
"My, my..." a voice said as they looked to see it was Roget, "A little late for a dip, don't you think? Someone informed me there would be a Dueling Tournament in our Facility, but apparently, it's actually a swim meet!"
"Who's this?" Yuya asked at that.
"Hey that's the guy that got Armstrong fired!" Sylvio called recognizing him.
"Roget." Yusei grunted seeing him.
"Indeed. Jean-Michel Roget." Roget smirked, "I am responsible for keeping order in this fair city, and I'm the Director of Sector Security. I came here to personally end your escape attempt... for good. And have to deal with you forever Yusei."
Yusei grunted as Dan looked up at Roget in shock. Soon they started to arrest them as Dan was thrown in crying out, "Ah! Ow."
"You leave him alone you Donut Dunkers!" Celina yelled.
"No need to worry." Roget smirked, "As long as you cooperate with us, you will be fine."
Suddenly a helicopter started to land catching their attention, and stopping what their doing. Two men in white exited the helicopter as one stated, "The High Council wishes to question your prisoners. You must turn them over to us."
"We have been given explicit orders to transport everyone you captured to the Hall of Dominion." the other man stated.
"I refuse." Roget said bluntly, "By their escape attempt, these duelists have already demonstrated they're a threat to public safety. We cannot release them to you until we've complete an investgi-"
Suddenly five holograms of elders appeared before him.
"We will decide if these duelists are a threat to the city."
"Send them to us at once."
"The council wills it."
"Isn't that so, Presider?"
"Indeed, we are all in agreement. It is settled."
Roget only narrowed his eyes at them.
Later...
Dan, and the group are at where the five elders are at. Judging by how they look they are the top people here in New Domino, and must mean their Roget's superiors.
"You must rethink this. This is a security matter." Roget told the elders, "I can assure you these duelists and their cohorts are extremely dangerous. They're conspiring to spread mayhem across the city!"
"Your branding us as criminals?" Kit asked angered, "To be frank we ain't done anything, and your coppers are a bit sensitive!"
"You disobeyed Sector Security and that is a serious violation of City Law." Roget said coldly.
"That wasn't our fault!" Dan argued, "They came out of nowhere, and suddenly tried to arrest when we haven't done anything! All we're here for is peace from this Dimension!"
"'This Dimension'?" Roget questioned with a raised eyebrow which made Dan widen his eyes covering his mouth as Roget turned to the elders, "Members of the High Council, you have heard the suspect for yourselves! Quite remarkably, he claims to have traveled to our world from another Dimension."
"But that's... impossible." Chojiro said in shock.
Roget turned to them agreeing, "Indeed it does sound outrageous, but it would explain certain facts I have observed. Namely, it would help clarify why these young Duelists have mastered three summoning methods to our world. Fusion, then Xyz, and third Pendulum along with this kid having his versions of Jack's Dragons. Naturally, I was concerned when these strangers suddenly showed up, and began dueling recklessly and threatening the peace of our Great City. I had to find out their plans. That is precisely why I had my Security Forces round them up."
"'Dueling recklessly'? 'Threatening the peace'? Now your just delusional!" Dipper yelled, "If we were doing those we would be evil! But do we look evil to you!?"
"But I find all this hard to believe." Chojiro admitted turning to the Lancers, "Are you all really from another Dimension?"
"Yes." Yuto answered to them, "It sounds hard to believe but it's true to the core. We're not here to hurt anyone, we're here to keep the peace."
Before Roget can say something the door swung open as a familiar voice rang, "He speaks the truth. We're here for peace not chaos."
They turned to see it was Declan, Moon Shadow, Aura, and Riley.
"Look, it's Declan!" Sylvio called seeing them.
"And Aura!" Yuya cried.
"Along with Moon Shadow." Celina said seeing the Ninja.
"And Riley!" Dan called in relief.
Seeing her boyfriend Riley widen her eyes running to him, and called, "Dan!"
She collided which made him cry out as they both dropped to the floor which made several people smile at the reunion while others were blinking which is Sylvio, Primo, Trudge, Roget, Kit, Dipper, and Shinji's part trying to figure out what just happened.
"I was so worried about you!" Riley said wrapping her arms around Dan with tears in her eyes.
Dan smiled to her, "I was worried about you two. When you weren't with us at the Facility, I was worried something happened. Sorry that I can't hug you back my hands are bound at the moment."
"And who is this?" Primo asked them.
"That's Riley." Yuya smiled, "Dan's special person."
"And what he meant by that is his Special Lady." Julia smiled with him.
Declan looked over the Lancers asking, "Where's Tate, Allie, and Frederick?"
"Back at where they are when Security nabbed us." Yuya answered, "And the Facility is a terrible place. It's Warden is a real big bully."
"You mean Armstrong." Roget said hearing that, "I didn't understand why a previous Director by the name of Rex Goodwin fired him but I soon seen why by seeing his duel with Dan. Making unfair advantages, and cheat his way to win the duel... That doesn't fit well with Sector Security even having the gall to electrocute him."
"Electrocute?" Celina, and Riley asked in shock.
"That's Armstrong." Yusei frowned, "He said that it's suppose to be for them both, and says that it's to teach them a lesson but Armstrong rigged it for him to not get shocked."
Dan said to them, "Yeah that wasn't fun, and it was more painful then I expected but I've managed to bring him down. After all no pain, no gain right?"
"That isn't funny." Riley said to him angered which made him look nervous, "You challenged him even though you knew all that!?"
"S-Sorry... But I couldn't just let him pick on Hero Chojiro." Dan told her turning to Chojiro who nodded with a smile which he smiled back turning back to Riley, "I'm so sorry for worrying you. Can you forgive me?"
Riley's eyes soften hugging him again, "Of course."
Dan smiled at that before moving his arms to where they go down for them to be around Riley with his hands bound.
"Your world will very soon be under attack by warriors from the Fusion Dimension." Declan told Roget getting back to business, "We can help you fight them. We Lancers are the best of the best."
"What're Lancers?" Crow asked confused.
"We're a team of Duelists to stop the Fusion Dimension from invading, and leaving destruction in their path." Dipper answered, "We're here so we can get new allies for us to battle the Fusion Dimension."
Roget started laughing as they turned to him, "Please excuse me. Dimensions fighting each other? I could buy dimension travel, but dimensional wars?"
"It's not a joke." Aura said to him making Roget turn to her, "This is serious, and we must-"
"Silence!" they turned to one of the elders who stated, "Let us review the statements presented by Declan Akaba."
"There is an interdimensional war." the elder with beady eyes pointed out.
"Which now threatens our world." the female elder with purple hair said to them.
"And you have come to help us." a serious elder added.
"Yes, we understand everything perfectly." the last elder known as the Presider wearing a white robe smiled.
"Glad to see we have some people who believes us." Kit remarked.
Roget wasn't as good with that, "Hold on! Do you mean to tell me you actually believe their tale. How do we know their not lying?"
"Their veracity is still up for debate." the first elder admitted.
"Let us begin with the question of whether or not they traveled here from another dimension." the beady eyed elder told them.
The female elder said, "Their claim to be interdimensional duel warriors seems most extraordinary... Yet how else can we explain their incredible summoning methods?"
Roget grunted before grinning, "Even if they are what they claim... How can we be certain they aren't the invaders who are planning to take over our world?"
"Now that's a whole new kind of ridiculous right there!" Yuto glared having enough of Roget's accusations, "We are not here to hurt people plain, and simple! If we wanted too we would've tried to destroy New Domino!"
"When Obelisk Force arrives, they'll destroy everything in their path..." Yuya told him, "Unless you join forces with us first!"
"My security team is quite capable." Roget stated bluntly, "We don't need your help."
"Against Obelisk Force maybe." Dan told him, "But the Fusion Dimension has powerful warriors that can easily destroy them without giving them any mercy. I known much about them, and I also know that your Officers won't stand a chance against these kinds of warriors, and their powerful cards!"
"What do you think you know? Your just a kid." Roget told him before stating, "As for the matter of your true identities, our probe will-"
"Enough, Director!" the first elder ordered, "We will take over."
"From this moment forward, all of these people will be sequestered under the direct Supervision of the High Council." the beady-eyed elder told them.
"Under direct supervision?" Chojiro asked in disbelief, "I've been locked up for 10 years, and I only get to taste freedom for three seconds?"
"There will be no exceptions." the female elder stated to him.
"You claim to be friends of this world. Now you will have a chance to prove that to us." the serious elder told them.
"Uh... Prove it how?" Sylvio asked them.
"By entering the Friendship Cup Dueling Tournament." Declan said to them, "If these people do not choose to believe that we Lancers have what it takes to protect this dimension, we're entering the tournament to show them how skilled we are."
"It's more important to find Zuzu!" Yuya argued.
That caught Roget's attention, "Zuzu? You mean Zuzu Boyle? I knew that rabble-rouser was one of you!"
"Zuzu? You have her? Where is she!?" Yuya asked him.
Roget only grinned, "Calm down... Don't want you bursting a blood vessel. She's safe. I mean, why would we ever harm another competitor in the Friendship Cup?"
"Zuzu's dueling in the tournament too?" Yuya asked in shock.
"That seems to have sparked your interest. I'm sure your friend will be delighted to learn that you are participating as well." Roget grinned before turning to the elders, "High Council, I agree that inviting these duelists to compete in the Friendship Cup is a marvelous idea. However, I would like to add another proposal."
"Which is...?" the first elder questioned.
"Speak up!" the beady eyed elder called.
"As you know, it's become tradition for the Friendship Cup's champion to hold an exhibition duel just prior to the opening ceremonies." Roget told them, "I humbly propose that Dan Kizami will be invited to challenge Jack Atlas."
"Why him?" Yuya asked surprised.
"A good question." the female elder agreed.
"Based on my observations, Dan is the most talented of this group before you." Roget explained, "That will make him an ideal competitor. We'll see how his skills, and different summons matches up against Jack Atlas."
"Interesting." the serious elder smiled turning to the Presider, "No objections, Presider?"
"I like the idea!" the Presider smiled, "And you?"
"I have no objections, of course." Declan answered.
"I refuse."
Hearing that they turned to Dan who is in his stern state glaring at Roget, "He has a lot to answer for. More then anything else his Officers had done to us."
"Answer for?" Primo asked hearing that.
"I'm afraid I have no idea what your talking about boy." Roget told Dan.
Dan glared, "You know full-well. You undid everything that Yusei had done to bring peace to this world, destroyed the Satellite, murdered millions of innocents people during that! You have more then need to answer for those acts! What did they ever done to you!?"
"Nothing. I felt that the Division from before is the right thing to do, and see that Yusei's actions were deluding us of what is suppose to stay true. The Satellites are nothing but criminals, and are treated as such being losers." Roget answered plainly, "While us Topsiders deserve to live in high hopes without worrying little scamps such as yourself to meddle in our affairs, and that they are the superiors here at the divisions. I simply only brought back the true nature of New Domino from the clutches of Team 5d's, and I do not regret it."
"Don't regret murdering people, destroying the Satellite, and ruining the peace Yusei had made?" Dan asked now more angry with a tick mark, "The Topsiders are treating people as trash, and Security arrests them for unfair reasons, and you don't regret it? How would you feel if you are one of those people bullied, and arrested?"
"I would not know because I'm not." Roget stated like it was obvious, "And that's not going to change."
Dan glared hatefully with tears brimming at his eyes trembling.
"Dan calm down." Riley said worried for her boyfriend.
Roget turned to Declan, "You outta keep this one on a leash."
Declan didn't say anything before stating, "He did had a right to speak about those acts."
"You ruined millions of lives from that reason!?" Yuya asked Roget in disgust, "How did the High Council approve of that!?"
"That isn't your concern." Roget said plainly before turning to Dan, "I'll make an extra proposal for your sake. If you do the exhibition, and only you win the Friendship Cup then I will take responsibility for my actions, and do what I can to make up for it. How does that sound?"
Dan glared before saying, "Swear on your word that you will do just that when it happens."
"Of course. I'm not like Armstrong to cheat my way to get what I want." Roget told him, "If you win the Friendship Cup, and beat Jack then I will consider it."
"..." Dan stayed quiet thinking about it before saying, "...Fine. But I want something."
"And what is that?" Roget asked him.
Dan answered, "My opponent in the exhibition won't be Jack."
"What?" Roget asked not expecting that.
"And why young man? Isn't facing the best a Duelist's dream?" the beady eyed elder asked him.
Dan answered to him, "If I do face him before the final round the both of us will already see our decks, and that would not make it fair if we know what to counter, and things like that."
"Presider?" the serious elder asked the Presider.
The Presider only nodded smiling, "Of course. We all understand. If that will be the case then we will have an opponent that is competing in the Friendship Cup duel you instead of Jack. What do you think?"
Dan nodded bowing slightly, "Thank you sirs."
With that it is decided. Dan will duel in a exhibition match against a mysterious opponent for the Friendship Cup, and now has a goal: To win the Friendship Cup, and make sure Roget will answer for his crimes.
This was a tough one but here you are. Roget is more nasty then his regular counterpart, and Dan now settles to make sure Roget will face responsibility for his Actions. But what opponent would Dan face in the exhibition? Here's a hint: A member of a team in the WRGP that were facing Team 5d's in the finals only for history to alter making them go to semi-finals, and is their second wheeler. Be sure to review!
