Regina walked through the streets of Heartland City headed home. After returning with aide for Kio, the boy had been rushed to the hospital immediately and she, along with Kim, taken to the office for questioning. Of course the green haired girl had said nothing about any of the three Number Cards, keeping a hand gaurdingly on the pouch that housed her extra deck at her hip the entire time.

'Let a dark force arise, he who committed the first atrocity against his own brother. XYZ summon Number 13: Embodiment of Crime." "The second I build with Lantern and Specter. You who knows sorrow, rises from the darkest depths of pain and suffering. XYZ summon Number 31: Embodiment of Punishment."

The teen's grip tightened on the pouch at the memory of the moment the young man summoned the monster duo. There were still so many questions that needed answering swirling around in Regina's head on the situation. She was still reeling from the duel. Not to mention that, somehow, she would have to explain things to Kim but had no idea how to do that or what to say. Then there was Kio's own well being. He was out cold when the medics carted him off to the hospital.....would he make a recovery? If he did what kind of shape would he be in? "Jeez what the heck is going on here!? I'm so frustrated and don't know what to do!", Regina screamed outloud shaking her head in anger.

"Perhaps what you need is a new perspective. If you cannot understand, then you will invitably be caught up in the streams of destiny with no control over where you go." This was the voice of a young man who just barely knew Regina from the school they attended. As it was to be his final year there, Fate(an ironic name for one who believed fate was what one made of it) had taken it upon himself to learn the names of his juniors. At school, he wa referred to as a prince no matter which deck he used. Out here, he was just another young man trying to look ot for others. "If you truly do not understand, why not ask those who would know the answers? Someone like…Yuma Tsukumo. Something tells me you will learn much about the situation from your father. Before you go after those answers, I have only one price for my help. When you have the answers you need for now, come challenge me to a duel. I plan to duel all my juniors before I graduate this year."

The girl stopped hearing a voice not new to her but at the same time not one she was well aquatinted with either. Turning around Regina eyed the young man who had walked up behind her from seemingly nowhere. Fate Tredwell. One of her elder classmates and a particularly well known duelist, as well as general person, among the female populace of the Academy. In fact many referred to him as a prince for more then just the decks he used. When Fate brought up talking to her father, the green haired duelist's eyes narrowed. "If you want to duel later on then all you had to do was ask, not play mind games with me. I'm not the kind of girl to turn down a challenge....especially not a duel.", Regina replied,"Other then that what are you talking about? I'm frustrated but that's all, and what made you bring up my dad?"

Lux had returned to her house some time ago, after the last of the students had finished their duels and the headmaster had said his closing speech. She didn't really listen to it, she had more important things on her mind. Marvel hung about for a bit, but she managed to shake him after a few minutes of short conversation. Alone, she traveled to her bedroom, removing her mask to reveal a pale, angular face, with two bright yellow, almond-shaped eyes. She pressed her hand to the wall, and, after a confirming glow and beep, a section slid open, revealing a pure white room, so uniform it was impossible to see where it ended. Lux set her mask on a stand beside the concealed door and stepped inside.

Temporal link established.
Searching for connection.... connection found.
Commensing Ansible transmission.

The white room darkened to black, then filled with stars. Lux floated amidst a galaxy for a brief moment, then the room went white again, resolving into a large laboratory. A man stood in the corner, black hair hanging down the back of his white lab coat. He was working on something, but stopped when he noticed Lux.
"It's good to see you again. You haven't contacted me for some time, Lux."
His voice was twisted and distorted. Only natural, he was a very long way away, in all senses of the word.
"There wasn't much to report," Lux replied, with an inflection in her voice that would have been utterly alien to anyone else she knew. "I've been doing my best, but I don't seem to be making a dent."
"Well, we didn't expect much," Shado said. "You're only one woman, after all, even a pro duelist won't be too much of an influence. If it's any consolation, the ripple has slowed slightly. How goes the hunt for a substitute?"
"I may have discovered something on that front," Lux said. "During a match today I detected an unknown energy signature. I then detected again multiple times throughout the rest of the day. Following the signature led to the site of a duel, though it wasn't like any I'd seen before. It looked almost like a Psychic duel, but I haven't found any duelists in this city that would be capable of manifesting such power."
"Did the spin increase any?" Shado asked.
"Not that I could observe," Lux said. "I can't give you a better answer until I figure out what the source of the energy is. I've narrowed it down to a few individuals, I'll be monitoring them more closely in the coming weeks. There's a chance we can use this energy as a substitute."
"Hurry, Lux. We don't have much time." Shado's face was grim. Lux terminated the link and exited the chamber, sliding her mask back over her face. She would need to duel the green-haired girl again, and she'd need to push her to her limits. Maybe then she would reveal whatever the source of that energy was.
A black motorcycle exited the alleway next to Lux's house and sped off down the street. astride it was a white-suited rider wearing a pure white helmet. The rider's face couldn't be seen.

"It is written in your future that you will seek answers to the many questions on your mind. Your father will have most of he answers you require, though some will only reveal themselves with time." There was one other thing Fate was known for, and te proof that it was the real deal had been seen many times(though he could honestly say that it was because they believed far too strongly in what he said and followed it to the tee). He, just like everyone else in bis family for the longest time, was a master of physiognomy…face-reading. The ability to see one's future just by looking at their face. "You have just been caught up in a dngerous battle that has only begun. Whatever you faced today is only the beginnong. You should seek the answers as soon as possible."

Regina wasn't sure how to react to Fate. Sure the Numbers could be dangerous in the wrong hands and the teen was going to see her father, but that didn't mean she had just walked into a dangerous situation. Not like one that the elder student was making it sound like. She couldn't have. Besides the entire school found out what had happened on the roof by the end of the day, so Fate finding out about the duel wasn't exactly odd. It was a mere coincidence that Kio had a pair of Number Cards.....nothing that her father couldn't explain with some sense. Right? "Then the sooner I get moving the better. But give me a call about that duel and we can set up a meeting place, Kay?"

"When the time comes for us to duel, when the chance reveals itself, I shall seek you out. For now, be careful on your way home. I would walk you there, but I am afraid there is something far more pressing to deal with." Fate bowed politely to Regi before turning around and walking back the way he had come. That was, however, merely a ruse that ended once he was out of her sight. As the princely gentleman he was, Fate could not ignore any danger the girl may be in. So he would follow from a distance and intervene only if the situation called for it. Let the future unfold as it would, guided by the little twists and turns created by individual actions.

The girl continued down the street in silence staring up at the sky until turning into the front lawn of her family's house. Opening the front door, Regina stepped inside and dropped her bag by the door. "Mom! Dad! Im home!", she called heading deeper into the house towards the kitchen. As she stepped into the room, Regina removed both of her decks to place them on the table beside each other. Taking up the extra stack, the green haired young duelist started sifting through the cards.

The white-suited rider sped down the streets of Heartland City, searching for Regina Tsukumo. It was a bit of a needle in a haystack, the city was huge, and there were more than a few green-haired people living in it. She'd already stumbled across several of them. Finally, she spotted her target, walking into a house. Her house, presumably. Her window had closed, but at least she knew where it was. She'd wait there a while, perhaps Regina would reemerge. The rider's cycle quieted as she turned off the engine, backing into an alley next to Regina's house. Stakeout it was.
