Making Connections

"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.
"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.
"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.
"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.
"How?s that?" questioned Jack.
"Before I found you guys, I was researching Duel Monsters and found a link to the past like the events before. As you may already know, Duel Monsters started 5000 years ago where Shadow Games were played for high stakes. However, there?s indications that three Duelists existed even further back in an era known as the Dawn of the Machines. They were able to see mechanical Duel Monsters wandering around to claim the very land we stand on as their own," started Pegasus.
"and what Duel Monsters were these?" asked Yusei.
"They were special ones called Meklords, powerful machines capable of widespread destruction wherever they went, similar to the Egyptian God Cards. No one knows for sure how they got there, but they had to be stopped and that?s where these three Duelists come in. They were known as Jacob, Lester and Primo. They used their powers to deactivate these mechanized machines and send their parts to the far reaches of the Earth. Now it seems they?ve been made into cards that steal Synchros from other Duelists," continued Pegasus.
"They?re Team New World from the World Racing Grand Prix tournament Jack and I were involved in. They were a major threat to everyone even after the events were finished. Sounds like they?re back to take care of some unfinished business," realized Yusei.
"Then perhaps you can be useful in taking them down again and saving New Domino City?" suggested Pegasus.
"You can bet on it. We won?t let a single person suffer their wrath. We?ll divide and conquer them," assured Yusei.
"There?s something else you should know. They?re behind the Duel Disk fiasco currently affecting our city. Rumor has it these three are going to destroy the whole city unless Synchros are eradicated for good," added Pegasus.
"I?d like to see them try and get past The Master of Faster. I?ll run them over myself if I have to," remarked Jack.
"We should get reinforcements just in case. Let?s go find Akiza and Crow," suggested Yusei.
?"Are they friends of yours, Yusei?" asked Pegasus.
"They were on our team at the World Racing Grand Prix back when we first faced these three. They?ll be more than trustworthy for this mission," replied Yusei.
"Well then off we go on another dangerous adventure," laughed Pegasus. Meanwhile....
"So nice of you all to piece that much together, but I can guarantee this. You?ve only scratched the surface with what we have planned. Synchros will be erased and we?re going to make sure everyone using them will be punished severely. You all have no idea the cards you beat the first time around have been heavily upgraded. When we next meet, you?ll be the first to fall, Yusei. Your reign as champion Duelist will come crashing down in one final Duel, but first, your little friends will pay the price for your meddling affairs. The clock is ticking to the end of New Domino City........for good!" confirmed Jacob.
