7 years ago...
"What's happening?" A man asked.
"The power it generates is too great! The city won't make it!" Another man said.
This happend in an underground laboratory. A couple of people in white labor robes was standing in a faintly lighten up room. The only light was comming from the several computer dispalys across the room, and the big, pillar-like generator in the middle of the room. One of the people was a man with short, black hair and his eyes was blue. He was taller then the other one, who was sitting on a chair looking at a computer display. His hair was a long, blonde horsetail, with a bit of hair falling down his face, covering his right eye, his left eye, however, was seen as purple.
"So, what should we do?" The black-haired man asked.
"It's too late to shut it down now..." The blonde one said. He looked scared at his own claim, and was clicked the display which changed upon touch. "But apparently we can limit the shockwave to just this room by lowering it's power and by closing all of the emergency doors."
"But wouldn't that..." The black-haired man said, but the blonde stopped him from saying the last words.
"What's more important! You're life or the life of everyone within Neo Domino City!?"
The black-haired man nodded.
"I guess we have no choice..."
"I'll be starting the process now..." The blonde said and touched the display again. The whole room was enlighten by a red light.
"Emergency! Sealing all the exits! The exits has been sealed! The exits couldn't possibly be more sealed then they are right now!" A digital voice that filled the room said.
"I will also lock this room forever, so that no one will ever find this wretched thing again!" The blonde said and pressed a button at the side of the display.
"I guess this is the end..." The black haired guy said, and a tear rolled down his cheek while he was looking down.
"Th end of Project Yggdrasil..." The blonde said silently. Moments later they were both wiped out by the tremendous shockwave of the generator. The city at the surface, however, did not notice...
Today...
20 years has passed since Yusei Fudo defeated Rex Godwin and the Dark Signers, and peace and life is flourishing within Neo Domino City. Yusei, Jack, Crow and the others has retired dueling, and a new King of Turbo Duels has been crowned... Valian Skydrake. The end of the 6th Fortune Cup is drawing near, only the finals between Valian and a challenger, Raiko. Get your D-Wheels ready, cause the finals about to begin...

Chapter 1: Summon! Fusion Force Dragon! (Click to View)
"My name is Valian Jackson, and I am King!" A young man shouted to the crowd. He looked to be 20 years old, and he was wearing a blue motorcycle suit with white trim. He had blue, spiky hair and his eyes was green. Under his arm he was holding a helmet that had the same color scheme as his suit. He pointed to the sky as a hologram of his ace card, Fusion Force Dragon appeared, and the crowd was shouting in cheering voices. The duel dome was big, and along the walls there was a race track for Turbo Duels, and in the middle there was two arenas for regular duels, with a platform in between. This was where the King was standing. The dragon rose from the ground, it looked like your regular dragon, armored with scales in a dark blue tone, and on it's head and chest two big gems of the same color was placed.
"And now, the challenger, Raiko Skyer!" The announcer shouted, and a D-Wheel blasted out of the garage. It was wine red with yellow, thunder shaped paintings on it. It was flying through the air and landed next to Valian, who looked as the driver dismounted it. The driver was clothed in a orange jacket, and under it a black shirt could be seen. He also wore jeans, brown leather boots, leather gloves of the same color and a helmet of the same color as his D-Wheel. He was smiling as he took of his helmet, revealing short, black hair, a scarred cheek and bright yellow eyes. He looked at the crowd and waved his hand. He then turned to the King.
"Hello, my lord!" He said, jokingly.
Valian grinned. He then equipped his helmet and started walking towards his D-Wheel. It looked like a half-completed version of the Wheel of Fortune, except with the color scheme of Valian's helmet and suit.
He mounted it and started up the motor.
"Get on your D-Wheel, it's time to duel!" He said and sped away on the track.
Raiko quickly equipped his own helmet and mounted his D-Wheel, and soon he was pursuiting the King around the arena.
"It's time to Duel! The effect of Speed World 2 will be on the field, preventing all Spell Cards that do not have Speed Spell in it's name to be activated! Each player will get Speed Counters each turn which is requiered for the activation of these Speed Spells!" The announcer shouted.
"It's time for us to begin!" Valian shouted, and somehow succeded in turning his D-Wheel around, driving it backwards. "The pursuiter always begins!"
"That would be me! Draw!" Raiko drew a card and placed it in the card holder, holding his hand, he then pulled another card out of his hand. "I summon Skywing!" (500/500/3) A small, yellow bird appeared and flew at the side of Raiko's D-Wheel.
"That card maybe helped you in your earlier duels in this tournament, but this one will be unlike any other duel you've played!" Valian said and smiled.
"I set two cards!" Raiko said and two face-down cards appeared on each side of him. "During my End Phase, Skywing allows me to Special Summon 1 Level 3 or lower Thunder monster from my hand! Son of Thunder!" (1000/1500/3)
A kid armored in some kind of white super hero armor with yellow trim appeared. It then turned grey and fell down on it's knees.
"My turn! Draw!" Valian drew a card.
Valian: 1 SC
Raiko: 1 SC
Valian looked at his hand and smiled.
"When you control two or more monsters then me, I can Special Summon my The Fiend Megacyber to the field!" (2200/1200/6)
When he summoned his monster a warrior in yellow armor appeared. Sparks was flying around it.
"Holy crap!" Raiko said. He was surprised at the sudden appearance of this card.
Valian smiled. He then pointed at the bird flying next to Raiko.
"Now, attack Skywing! Cyber Slash!"
The warrior jumped into the air and made ready to slah it's opponent.
"I activate Son of Thunder's monster effect!" Raiko said, and Son of Thunder blasted a lightning against Megacyber, who turned grey and fell on it's knees.
"When a monster other then itself is attacked, I can change the attacking monster to Defense Position once per turn!"
"Argh! Well, I set a card and ends my turn!" Valian said and set a card on his field.
"My move! Draw!" Raiko drew his card and looked at it.
Valian: 2 SC
Raiko: 2 SC
"I will now reveal one of my trumphs, mister King!" Raiko said and smiled. "But first I will summon Thunder King Rai-Oh!" (1900/800/4) A blue machine thing appeared and flew nest to Raiko's D-Wheel. "Trap Card, open!" One of his face-down cards was flipped face-up and revealed a picture of a dragon shrinking in size. "This card is called Miniaturize, and it allows me to lower one monsters Level by 1, so now my Thunder King is Level 3!" His monsters levels did now equal nine, which was just enough for one of his aces to appear! He raised his hand to the sky as his Skywing turned into three green rings that surrounded Rai-Oh and Son of Thunder.
"Thunders lash as the day is dawning! Out of the mist arises a great beast! Synchro Summon! Rampage! Mist Wurm!" (2500/1500) Raiko was chanting while a big, worm-like creature appeared on the track, and as it crashed into the ground Valian's D-Wheel almost fell over, even thought it was just a hologram. Raiko was smiling.
"When Mist Wurm is Synchro Summoned, I can return up to three cards on your side of the field to the hand!"
The big worm let out a strong wind against Valian's card.
"Trap Card, open!" Valian said and smiled. "This card is called Anti-Force Shield! I can activate it when one of my monsters is about to leave the field, and you cannot engage in combat this turn!"
"What!?" Raiko was surprised and a sweatdrip rolled down his chin. "I guess it's your turn then..."
"That's right! Draw!" Valian drew a card and smiled.
Valian: 3 SC
Raiko: 3 SC
"You have summoned, one of your ace, now it's time for me to summon mine!" He raised the card he just drew to the sky. "Fusion Force Dragon! Appear now!" (1500/1000) He played the card, and the holographic dragon from before appeared on the field. "His effect activates! When Fusion Force Dragon is Summoned from my hand I can search my deck for Polymerization, Super Polymerization or Speed Spell - Speed Fusion and add it to my hand!" He pulled his deck out of it's holder and pulled a card out of it, revealing it as Speed Fusion, he then placed it in his hand and pulled another card out of his hand. "I activate the Speed Spell - Over Boost, which increases my Speed Counters by 4!" As he activated the card his D-Wheel sped away far away from Raiko's.
Valian: 3-->7 SC
"Now, I will first activate my Speed Spell - Speed Fusion!" The card appeared in a holographic version on the field. "While I have 4 or more Speed Counetrs this card works as the normal Polymerization! Now, I chose to fuse my Fusion Force Dragon with Fiend Megacyber!"
The two monsters was dragged together and a burst of light was all that could be seen. Out of the light came a big dragon clad in golden armor in the style of Megacyber's armor. It roared at Raiko, who was sweating at the fearsome sight.
"Say hello to Golden Roar Dragon!" (2800/2300) Valian said and started to laugh. "When Golden Roar Dragon is Fusion Summoned I can send cards on your side of the field to teh Graveyard untill we have an equal amount of cards on the field, and because of your Trap card we do not have an equal ammount! So now! Golden Roar Dragon! Destroy Mist Wurm!"
Raiko looked as the golden dragon flew in tremendous speed against Mist Wurm and then sliced it in two, turning it into dust.
"Now, my opponent is open for a direct attack! Golden Roar, attack Raiko directly with Golden Dust!"
The dragon opened it's mouth and let out a stream of shards that hitted Raiko's D-Wheel, and he lost control of the steering. He nearly drove into a wall when he finally got control of it again.
Valian: 4000 LP
Raiko: 1200 LP
"Trap Card, open!" Raiko shouted as his final face-down was revealed. "This card is called Majestic Rebirth! When I take battle damage, this card allows me to Special Summon a Synchro Monster in my Graveyard with an attack ammount equal to or lower then the ammount of damage taken!" Mist Wurm once again bursted out of the ground, and was now crawling at a fast pace next to Raiko.
"That won't matter, I will still defeat you in the end!" Valian shouted, and started to laugh again.
Valian looked at his hand.
He's right, I have nothing that can defeat his Golden Roar Dragon, and the only thing on my field is Mist Wurm, but it's too weak... Raiko thought.
"I activate the effect of Speed World 2!" Valian said. "By removing seven Speed Counters from it, I can draw a card!"
Valian: 7-->0 SC
He drew a card and placed it in his hand.
"Speed Spell - Over Boost's effect says that my Speed Counters will be one during my End Phase, but since I removed the seven I had it will instead go up to one!" Valian smiled as the crowd cheered on him. He lifted his finger to the sky, as the first King used to do. "Don't worry, my fans! I will defeat the challenger!"
Raiko held his hand on his deck, ready to draw a card.
The worst thing is that he may be right! If I don't draw the right card now, then...
To be continued...
"And now, the challenger, Raiko Skyer!" The announcer shouted, and a D-Wheel blasted out of the garage. It was wine red with yellow, thunder shaped paintings on it. It was flying through the air and landed next to Valian, who looked as the driver dismounted it. The driver was clothed in a orange jacket, and under it a black shirt could be seen. He also wore jeans, brown leather boots, leather gloves of the same color and a helmet of the same color as his D-Wheel.

Chapter 2: The Ace of Raiko!? Crimson Thunder Strike! (Click to View)
"This duel is getting more tense as Raiko is about to start his turn! Valian has his Golden Roar Dragon on his side of the field and Raiko has Mist Wurm at his side. Valian's life is at top, while Raiko's is at a mere 1200! Who will win this duel?" The MC shouted into the mic as Raiko and Valian rode their D-Wheels on the field. At the side of Valian the majestic Golden Roar Dragon was flying, while Mist Wurm was crawling at the side of Raiko.
"Are you going to start your turn, or are you giving up?" Valian said and grinned. "Do your move!
"I was about to do that! Draw!" Raiko drew his card and placed it in his hand. "That card will do for now..."
Valian: 2 SC
Raiko: 4 SC
"I activate the Speed Spell - X-Synchro Wave card from my hand!" Raiko said, and the card appeared on the field. "This can only be activated while I have 4 or more Speed Counters, and now I can increase the attack of a Synchro monster on my side of the field by an ammount equal to it's level times 100!"
"That means..!" Valian was surprised.
"That my Mist Wurms attack points is increased by 900!" Raiko said and raised his hand to the sky as his monsters attack raised. (2500-->3400) "Mist Wurm! Attack Golden Roar Dragon!"
Mist Wurm opened it's mouth and let out a blast of wind that blew the dragon away, and decreased Valian's life points.
Valian: 3400
Raiko: 1200
"But my life points is still higher then yours!" Valian said and smiled. "And my Golden Roar Dragon has an additional effect! When it's destroyed, I can shuffle a Fusion Force Dragon in my graveyard back into my deck!"
"Humph... I set two cards and end my turn." Raiko said and placed two cards face-down on his field. "During the End Phase of a turn I used X-Synchro Wave, the selected Synchro monster is returned to the Extra Deck, and I can special summon the Tuner used for it's summon. Skywing!" (500/500) The little, yellow bird appeared flying next to him again. "And Skywing's effect, I can Special Summon a Level 3 or lower Thunder monster from my hand or Graveyard during the End Phase if Skywing is in attack position, so Son of Thunder returns too!" (1000/1500) The kid-like thing appeared again, flying next to Skywing as it turned grey and fell on it's knees.
"Heh, you're doing that trick again? I hope you don't think a king will do the same mistake twice! Draw!" Valian drew a card and placed it in his hand.
Valian: 3 SC
Raiko: 5 SC
"I summon Hunter Dragon!" (1700/100) Valian played a card from his hand and a small, black dragon appeared flying next to him. "It may be a Normal Monster, but it's still the strongest Level 3 monster there is! Attack his Son of Thunder!" Hunter Dragon made ready to strike Son of Thunder, but Raiko smiled.
"I activate my Trap card! Call of the Earthbound!" The card was reavealed, and out of the card came a purple arm, that forced Hunter Dragon to attack Skywing, and thus Son of Thunder's effect could activate. "Now, I change the attack target to my Skywing, and activate Son of Thunder's effect!"
Son of Thunder shot an electric attack at Hunter Dragon, which changed it to defense position. Raiko smiled, but Valian wasn't that happy.
"Damn you, Skyer!" He said. "I set a card face-down, and then I'll let you start your turn!"
He placed a card face-down, as the turn went to Raiko.
"Okay! Draw!" He drew a card and looked at it.
Valian: 4 SC
Raiko: 6 SC
"I summon The Calculator to my side of the field!" A calculator-robot-thing appeared running next to Raiko's D-Wheel. "Now, I will Synchro Summon my favorite ace-monster!"
Skywing turned into three green rings which captured both the calculator and Son of Thunder.
"Follow the signs of the Crimson Thunder! We will stay by your side! Synchro Summon! Bring justice, Herald of the Crimson Thunder!" (2600/2000) A monster that looked as if it was made out of crimson lightning appeared. It was wearing orange armor and a colossal hammer, and it had wings that looked like the wings of the Crimson Dragon itself.
"Activate it's effect!" Raiko said and smiled. "During the turn this card is summoned, I can destroy a card on my opponents side of the field, and also draw a card. Now, my Herald! Destroy Hunter Dragon!" The monster raised it's hammer to the sky, and then smashed the ground so that a lightning was sent against Hunter Dragon, who was instantely destroyed, and Raiko drew a card.
"Now, attack him directly! Crimson Thunder Strike!" The monser sent out a lightning that hitted Valian's D-Wheel pretty hard, and he almost fell off when he finally got grip on it again.
"I activate my Trap card! Return to the Battlefield!" Valian said and revealed his face-down. "This card can be used when a Level 3 or lower monster of mine has been destroyed by a card effect during this turn! Now, I can Special Summon it to my side of the field!" Hunter Dragon returned to teh field, and it roared at the monster that had destroyed it. "Also, my Trap allows me to add a monster in my deck to my hand, as long as the monster has the same or lower attack as the monster I special Summoned!" He pulled a card out of his deck and revealed it, it was Fusion Force Dragon.
"Not that again! I end..." Raiko said.
"I draw!" Valian drew a card, but he didn't look at it, just placed it in his hand.
Valian: 5 SC
Raiko: 7 SC
"I summon Fusion Force Dragon!" (1500/1000) Valian shouted as he summoned the dragon to his field. "It's effect is activated, and I add Speed Spell - Speed Fusion to my hand!"
He once again pulled a card out of his deck and revealed it to be the card he had mentioned.
"I activate it right away!" Valian played the card, and Fusion Force Dragon and Hunter Dragon fused together to form a red dragon with four, big wings and a dark blue stomach. "This is Ryuforce Dragon!" (2600/1000)
"But it's attack is the same as my Herald's!" Raiko said, surprised.
"Watch it's powers! Attack Herald of the Crimson Thunder!" Valian yelled and pointed at Raiko's monster as his dragon attacked the big lightning monster.
"The two monsters clash in an epic battle for victory, but we know that it will end in a draw!" The MC shouted.
"When Ryuforce Dragon is destroyed in battle, both players loses life equal to Ryuforce's attack points!" Valian said and smiled.
"I activate Damage Reduction! When I take effect damage from a monster effect, I can decrease the damage taken equal to the level of the monster times 200!"
"And my Ryuforce's level is 8!" Valian said and looked angry.
"Which means that the damage I take is decreased by 1600, and makes the damage 1000!" Raiko smiled.
"Damn it!" Valian yelled when the shockwave of the battle left the two D-Wheels almost crasing into the walls, and the two monsters was nowhere to be found.

Raiko: 200 LP
"I... I set a card and end my turn..." Valian said.
Just a monster now and I win! Raiko thought and made ready to draw.
"I'll end this now! Draw!" Raiko drew a card and looked at it. "Yes! It's over! I summon Electric Virus!" (1000/1000) A small, electric thing appeared and flyed along Raiko's side. Now! Atta- Wha!?" Raiko's D-Wheel suddenly started malfunctioning, and the hologram of Electric Virus disappeared. "What is this!?" Raiko lost control of the D-Wheel and it was not long untill he was about to crash. Suddenly he saw that Valian had slown down and held out his hand to help him.
"Grab my hand, Raiko!" He shouted. "It's your only chance."
Raiko nodded and grabbed his deck, placed it in his pocket and grabbed Valian's hand. Valian pulled Raiko onto his D-Wheel as Raiko's crashed and burned. Valian stopped the D-Wheel and Raiko jumped off and ran towards the D-Wheel. He looked at the burning remains as the MC started shouting.
"It looks like if Raiko's D-Wheel satrted burning and crashed! This means that the game ended in a draw!" The MC shouted in teh mic and the crowd kept cheering, even though Raiko's D-Wheel had crashed. Valian ran to Raiko's side and looked at the crashed D-Wheel.
"I'm sure you can fix it..." He said and laid his hand on Raiko's shoulder.
"And the we're having a rematch!" Raiko looked at him and smiled. "That was the most exciting match I've ever had!"
They shook their hands.
"I'll be back as soon as I've fixed the D-Wheel,be sure about that!" Raiko said, then he saw some emergency people that was running towards them with a water-hose in their hands. When they was close enough they shoot water at the D-Wheel and put out the fire (Major grammar error?)
Then, a bald, old man wearing a black tuxedo arrived together with a girl and a boy. The girl was wearing a red kimono dress and her hair was long and blonde. Her eyes was green. The Boy looked to be at the same age as Raiko, and he was wearing completely black leather clothes, a red scarf and had white, spiky hair. His eyes was completely light blue. He was holding some kind of remote that he threw to the ground and stomped on it so that it was destroyed.
"Hello, my name is Kuroda Naoki." The old man said. "This is my daughter, Hikari Naoki, and this is a friend named..." He ended the sentenece when the black clad boy glared at him. "Well, anyway, I am the director of Kaiba Corp, and the main sponsor of this tournament. We are very sorry for what had happend, and we promise we will fix the D-Wheel for you." The man said and smiled.
"Director?" Valian said, surprised.
"Thank you!" Raiko was very happy and smiled. He then turned to Valian again. "When my D-Wheel is fixed, we will duel again!"
Valian smiled and nodded.
"Thank you for a very great duel, and thanks for fixing my D-Wheel, mister Naoki!" Raiko turned around and waved at them, then ran away, but before he had come out of range of hearing he heard Valian saying: "What was that for!?" However, he ignored it.
"Are you going to start your turn, or are you giving up?" Valian said and grinned. "Do your move!
"I was about to do that! Draw!" Raiko drew his card and placed it in his hand. "That card will do for now..."
Valian: 2 SC
Raiko: 4 SC
"I activate the Speed Spell - X-Synchro Wave card from my hand!" Raiko said, and the card appeared on the field. "This can only be activated while I have 4 or more Speed Counters, and now I can increase the attack of a Synchro monster on my side of the field by an ammount equal to it's level times 100!"
"That means..!" Valian was surprised.
"That my Mist Wurms attack points is increased by 900!" Raiko said and raised his hand to the sky as his monsters attack raised. (2500-->3400) "Mist Wurm! Attack Golden Roar Dragon!"
Mist Wurm opened it's mouth and let out a blast of wind that blew the dragon away, and decreased Valian's life points.
Valian: 3400
Raiko: 1200
"But my life points is still higher then yours!" Valian said and smiled. "And my Golden Roar Dragon has an additional effect! When it's destroyed, I can shuffle a Fusion Force Dragon in my graveyard back into my deck!"
"Humph... I set two cards and end my turn." Raiko said and placed two cards face-down on his field. "During the End Phase of a turn I used X-Synchro Wave, the selected Synchro monster is returned to the Extra Deck, and I can special summon the Tuner used for it's summon. Skywing!" (500/500) The little, yellow bird appeared flying next to him again. "And Skywing's effect, I can Special Summon a Level 3 or lower Thunder monster from my hand or Graveyard during the End Phase if Skywing is in attack position, so Son of Thunder returns too!" (1000/1500) The kid-like thing appeared again, flying next to Skywing as it turned grey and fell on it's knees.
"Heh, you're doing that trick again? I hope you don't think a king will do the same mistake twice! Draw!" Valian drew a card and placed it in his hand.
Valian: 3 SC
Raiko: 5 SC
"I summon Hunter Dragon!" (1700/100) Valian played a card from his hand and a small, black dragon appeared flying next to him. "It may be a Normal Monster, but it's still the strongest Level 3 monster there is! Attack his Son of Thunder!" Hunter Dragon made ready to strike Son of Thunder, but Raiko smiled.
"I activate my Trap card! Call of the Earthbound!" The card was reavealed, and out of the card came a purple arm, that forced Hunter Dragon to attack Skywing, and thus Son of Thunder's effect could activate. "Now, I change the attack target to my Skywing, and activate Son of Thunder's effect!"
Son of Thunder shot an electric attack at Hunter Dragon, which changed it to defense position. Raiko smiled, but Valian wasn't that happy.
"Damn you, Skyer!" He said. "I set a card face-down, and then I'll let you start your turn!"
He placed a card face-down, as the turn went to Raiko.
"Okay! Draw!" He drew a card and looked at it.
Valian: 4 SC
Raiko: 6 SC
"I summon The Calculator to my side of the field!" A calculator-robot-thing appeared running next to Raiko's D-Wheel. "Now, I will Synchro Summon my favorite ace-monster!"
Skywing turned into three green rings which captured both the calculator and Son of Thunder.
"Follow the signs of the Crimson Thunder! We will stay by your side! Synchro Summon! Bring justice, Herald of the Crimson Thunder!" (2600/2000) A monster that looked as if it was made out of crimson lightning appeared. It was wearing orange armor and a colossal hammer, and it had wings that looked like the wings of the Crimson Dragon itself.
"Activate it's effect!" Raiko said and smiled. "During the turn this card is summoned, I can destroy a card on my opponents side of the field, and also draw a card. Now, my Herald! Destroy Hunter Dragon!" The monster raised it's hammer to the sky, and then smashed the ground so that a lightning was sent against Hunter Dragon, who was instantely destroyed, and Raiko drew a card.
"Now, attack him directly! Crimson Thunder Strike!" The monser sent out a lightning that hitted Valian's D-Wheel pretty hard, and he almost fell off when he finally got grip on it again.
"I activate my Trap card! Return to the Battlefield!" Valian said and revealed his face-down. "This card can be used when a Level 3 or lower monster of mine has been destroyed by a card effect during this turn! Now, I can Special Summon it to my side of the field!" Hunter Dragon returned to teh field, and it roared at the monster that had destroyed it. "Also, my Trap allows me to add a monster in my deck to my hand, as long as the monster has the same or lower attack as the monster I special Summoned!" He pulled a card out of his deck and revealed it, it was Fusion Force Dragon.
"Not that again! I end..." Raiko said.
"I draw!" Valian drew a card, but he didn't look at it, just placed it in his hand.
Valian: 5 SC

Chapter 3: Child of Thundering Skies! (Click to View)
The rain was falling on the streets. The sky was firing lightnings towards the city, and a lonely woman was walking along the streets. She was holding an umbrella and wearing a yellow raincoat. Her eyes was bright blue, and long, brown hair could be seen under the hood. Her destination was home, she had just left an important meeting with her boss. Suddenly, a very strong lightning struck not far from where she was walking, and a child's scream could be heard. She turned to where the scream was comming from and ran towards the location. She ran on the streets, and crying could still be heard from where the child's scream had came from. She turned into an alley and then she saw him. A boy was standing in the middle of the alley, he was looking into the shadows. He had dirty, black hair and bright yellow eyes. Tears was rolling down his scarred, left cheek. He looked to be around 5 years or so. The woman ran towards him and placed her hand on his shoulder. The boy didn't react, and kept staring into the shadows.
"Little friend, what are you doing here all alone?" She asked as she slowly removed her hand from his shoulder.
"I... I don't know..." The boy replied. The tears was still dripping from his chin.
"Are you here with your mom or dad?" The woman smiled lightly.
"I can't remember." The boy replied simply.
"Then what happened? I heard a scream..." The woman was interrupted by the boy.
"The lightning is all I remember." He simply said. He then pointed towards the shadows. "And him."
The woman turned her face to the shadows, and indeed the figure of another human could be seen. It looked as old as the boy, the woman couldn't tell how the other boy looked like in the darkness, but she could hear that he amde some kind of sound and then started running away.
"Wait!" She shouted at him and tried to reach him with her hand, even though she knew it was useless.
"It's no use." The black-haired boy said. He was looking at where the other boy had been moments ago. The woman turned to him again.
"But... What's your name?" She asked quietly, as if it were some sort of insult.
"My name is... I don't remember..." The boy said and finally looked at the woman. "What is yours?"
"Oh... My name is Shizuka." The woman smiled. "You sure you don't remember anything? Where do you live?" The boy looked down at the ground. Shizuka could no longer tell if the water rolling down his cheeks was rain or if he was still crying.
"I can't remember anything..." The boy didn't move his sight from the ground. The alley was lighten up by another thunder.
"Well. We can't stay here, so you can come home with me. Maybe some sleep will make you remember!" Shizuka smiled. The boy looked at her and also smiled.
"Th... Thank you..." The boy said, and Shizuka laid her arm around him and started walking together with the boy out of the alley.
"Who was that other boy?" She asked as they walked out on the streets. The boy looked puzzled. He then looked at Shizuka.
"I don't know..." He said. In fact, Shizuka didn't think that he would give her any other answer.
They kept walking in silence, and they finally arrived at an apartment house.
"Well, this is where I live." Shizuka said, but she didn't expect any answer. The boy looked at the house. They walked inside and up some stairs. They reached a door with the name Shizuka Skyer inscribed on it.
"Is this where you live?" The boy finally said something.
"Yes, I see you can still read at least..." Shizuka pulled a key out of her pocket and unlocked the door. "You should go to bed directly."
She walked inside. The apartment was not big, there was a small hallway with a bathroom door and two other doors. At the end of the hallway was a small room. There was a couch, a table and a tv, not much else.
"You can sleep in the bed, I'll sleep on the couch..." Shizuka started, but then noticed that the boy had already made himself at home and felt asleep on the couch. She smiled.
The next day the sun was hining and the sky was cloudfree. Shizuka was in the kitchen making breakfast when the boy walked in.
"Good morning!" She said and smiled. "Do you remember anything after a night's sleep?"
The boy shook his head and placed himself by the table. The walls of this room as orange, and at the table was placed under the window, but something else had catched the boys attention. He was looking at a black box that was just standing there on the table.
"What's that?" The boy asked and pointed at the box.
"Oh..." Shizuka turned stopped what she was doing and turned to the boy instead. "That was given to me by my father before he died... He was a duelist..."
The boy opened the box. Inside it was a deck of cards, with a shining white card with a picture depicting a crimson warrior made out of lightning. He grabbed the cards and looked through them.
"I'm not really a duelist..." She said. "I guess you can have those..."
The boy looked at her.
"Really? You're a really nice lady..." He jumped off the chair and hugged her. "I wish I had a mommy like you!"
Shizuka smiled.
"Well, you have nowhere to live untill we find your real parents, so I guess you can live here till then... Raiko..." She said.
"Raiko?" The boy looked at her, surprised.
"You need a name, right? Raiko means 'Child of Thunder', and I wouldn't have found you if it weren't for the lightning, right?" Shizuka smiled.
"Raiko... I like that name..." The boy smiled as he hugged her again.
The rain was falling outside, and the sky was shooting lightnings towards the city. The room was small, and it had four orange walls. The room also had one door, and at the opposite side of the room was a window with a table and four chairs underneath. Raiko was sitting on a chair near the window, and was staring out on the bad weather. In front of him, on the table, there was a an empty cup, which seemed to have contained tea. Suddenly the door opened and an adult woman walked in. She was taller then Raiko, and had long, grey hair. Her faced showed signs of elderdom, with an ammount of wrinkles.
"What are you doing, Raiko?" She asked and smiled.
Raiko turned towards her and smiled easily.
"I was looking at the lightnings, they are unusually violent tonight..." He replied.
"You are right, I've never seen such lightning since the day I found you..." The woman said and placed herself on the chair on the opposite side of the table, and looked outside. "How was the duel earlier?"
"It ended in a draw..." Raiko kept looking outside. "My D-Wheel crashed malfunctioned and crashed..."
"You don't think... It was sabotaged?" The woman asked.
"No, Shizuka. I don't think Valian would do such thing..." Raiko moved his eyes towards the old woman. "But Mister Naoki promised to fix my D-Wheel so that me and Valian could have a rematch!" Raiko smiled.
"I don't know..." Shizuka said. "I feel like something is happening... Something big..."
"Little friend, what are you doing here all alone?" She asked as she slowly removed her hand from his shoulder.
"I... I don't know..." The boy replied. The tears was still dripping from his chin.
"Are you here with your mom or dad?" The woman smiled lightly.
