Synchro Strike
In Domino City...
"I can?t believe this Rogue guy showed up and monkied with our Duel Disks. What kinda nutcase does ?dat? Wait?ll I get my hands on him. He?s gonna go down faster than a Duelist?s Life Points after a direct attack!" shouted Joey.
"Easy, Joey. We all want to take him down just as much as you do," assured Yugi.
"Wrong, Yugi. I?m far more eager to beat them than anyone in Domino City," corrected Kaiba.
"WHAT!? Kaiba never comes along with us unless there?s something serious going on, oh wait, there is so never mind," commented Joey.
"As usual, Wheeler, you?re always the last to figure things out. Rogue is ruining the reputation of my Duel Disks and my company. Assuming they actually exist, they?re going to feel the worst of my wrath," remarked Kaiba.
"That?s why we?re all here, Kaiba. We?re after the same villain here so it?s logical to work together, just like we did with Dartz," agreed Yugi.
"Yeah, you two, well mostly Yugi crushed Dartz back there, twice even and now it?s time for us to do the same to Rogue, and anyone he may be working for," nodded Tristan.
"Heh. When is it going to get through to you guys that I never need help and never ask for it?" questioned Kaiba.
"Typical Kaiba," muttered Tea?.
"We?re not getting anywhere by arguing so let?s keep an eye out for anything unusual," stated Yugi.
Meanwhile....
"Figures I introduce a brand new way to Duel and someone is mucking everything up with Duel Disks. I?ve got to figure out a way to stop them. Maybe Yugi boy and his friends can help? Or there?s those new kids on the block Yusei Fudo and friends? Oh why not, they can work together as only good protagonists like them know how. Now, where could they be?" thought Pegasus. Elsewhere...
"Yusei, you think the rumors about Synchros being back are true? I mean we used them, but that was last year and we haven?t seen a single Synchro Monster since," asked Rally.
"If they are, then we?ll have to contend with a wide range of new cards, and possibly new strategies," replied Yusei.
"New strategies? Hardly, Yusei. Don?t you remember we practically invented Accel Synchros and Double Tuning? I don?t think there?s a single new strategy left out there, let alone one that could actually beat any of us. They?ll be down before they can lay a finger on my Life Points," scoffed Jack.
"Plus they won?t get by my Life Stream Dragon, or Luna?s Ancient Fairy Dragon," smirked Leo.
"We did beat the Dark Signers after all," added Leo.
"All we have to do is keep our eyes and minds open and be prepared for any strategy that comes our way," assured Yusei.
"Yusei, is your Duel Disk glowing?" questioned Jack.
"Glowing? What could that be from? Maybe it?s linked to the Crimson Dragon?" pondered Yusei.
"It sure isn?t a nightlight given that it?s daytime," noted Leo.
"Of course it?s not a nightlight, Leo. They don?t make Duel Disks as nightlights," remarked Luna.
"Well they could at any time and I wouldn?t be surprised," countered Leo.
"Wait a sec, there?s a chip underneath. I can?t get it off," continued Yusei.
"Who?d be dumb enough to put a computer chip under a Duel Disk?" asked Jack.
"More importantly, why," stated Yusei.
"Ah, there you guys are. I was hoping I?d find you somewhere in Domino City. Word on the street is things are going haywire with Kaiba?s Duel Disks," called Pegasus as he came over.
"Who are you?" asked Yusei.
"My apologies. I?m Maximillion Pegasus, owner of Industrial Illusions," revealed Pegasus.
"I heard about a tournament years ago where you took souls of some Duelists. Why should we trust you?" remarked Jack.
"A time so very long ago and besides, you?ll need me more than you realize," recalled Pegasus.
