Chapter 1: Stealing from Psychics!

A siren blared and red lights flashed angrily as the sound of stampeding feet echoed through the corridors.

"All advanced classes report in immediately! All beginner classes return to your rooms!" An authoritative voice yelled. "This is serious people! This is not a drill! I repeat, this is not a drill!"

"What the hell happened!?" A voice yelled, as its owner, a black haired man wearing what looked like green robes in a crowd of purple robes appeared.

"See for yourself!" A blonde in red robes pointed to a room. The green robed man ran in, only to halt as he saw two unconscious scientists lying on the floor and a shattered glass cylinder that looked like it once contained something.

"I-Impossible!" He gasped. "I-It's been-!"

"Stolen!" The red robed figure confirmed.

"We must report to Master Sayer immediately!" Green robe exclaimed.

"No need!" Red robe yelled over the noise. "The Black Rose is already doing so!"

At the top floor of the building, a man wearing a green formal suit with brown hair curved over to one side of his face stood with his arms folded behind his back, staring out of the window, obviously aware of the commotion happening below him, yet choosing to do nothing.

The door opened, and in came a young woman wearing somewhat victorian style clothing, with dark burgundy hair, brown eyes and a large chest.

"Sayer." She spoke. "Project PSY...it has been stolen."

The figure known as Sayer nodded. "I am well aware, Akiza...in fact, I predicted something like this would happen, considering the 'incidents' in the last few weeks." He unfolded his arms, and walked over to his desk, where an intercom sat.

He pressed the button marked '6' on it. "Neuro."

"Yes, Master Sayer?" A voice came down the line.

"Prepare the Psychic Patrollers."

"A-Are you sure, sir? The perpetrator is still in the building, I'm sure they will be able to-"

"Prepare yourselves, that is an order."

"Y-Yes sir!" And so the line was cut.

The man gave a faint smile. "It's clear we're not dealing with any ordinary thief."

A figure ran through the corridors as fast as possible, his violet hair sweeping back in spikes at the top and back, yet a sharp strand slashed across his forehead on the left side, whilst on the right side it spiked down perfectly vertically next to his cheek. He wore a green neckerchief covering his mouth and nose like a bandanna, as a pair of circular riding goggles with a red strap covered his eyes. He donned a purple unzipped riding jacket with yellow stripes across the back and dark blue diamonds on the elbows, over a short sleeved grey shirt with an orange scar shape on the front. He wore thin brown trousers with a black belt, and cream riding boots with a red diamond on each side of the heels.

He ran through a door, only to find several Arcadia members there. "Hey! You!" He quickly ran in the opposite direction as they gave chase.

"We have eyes on the suspect!" One of them yelled into a walkie talkie. "He's on the 8th floor, corridor C!"

The figure tried to run down the stairs, only to see more running up. He turned to a door and rammed it open with his shoulder to continue fleeing, now dashing through a corridor with a long line of windows for the left side.

However, he was forced to stop as his front was blocked by a wall of personal. He did a U-turn only to find the same situation behind him.

"End of the line, son." Red robes said. "You've had your fun, but it's time you return what you stole from us."

The figure straightened himself up. "I cannot allow you to have it. I know what you people are planning with this!"

"Good for you." Green robes spoke behind him. "But its over. You have nowhere to run."

"Oh, I don't, do I?" The figure smirked underneath his neckerchief, before looking at the window.

"What are you-?" Red robes realised too late as the figure ran. "Stop!"

CRASH!

The windows shattered as the figure jumped through, then fell, fell, until...

FWUMP!

He landed on a giant inflatable mattress, which collapsed under the impact.

"When did that get there!?" Green robes yelled.

"Don't tell me that bastard planned to jump out this window all this time!?" Red robes snarled.

The figure jumped to his feet and ran over to a bush, quickly tearing the leaves away to reveal a Duel Runner. It was a streamlined model, blue in colour with orange streaks at the sides, the handles were curved down at a 115 degree angle next to the back wheels, and the back jutted out with a twin propulsion system.

He sat on and pulled the handles up so that they stopped him from falling off, before he opened up a Deck holder on his belt and fanned out the cards to study them. "Let's see...hand traps? Never seen many of these...what a strange Deck." He reached into a compartment and pulled out some Speed Spells, removing the regular Spells and adding them in before placing the Deck into the holder, causing it be automatically shuffled.

"Freeze!" He turned to see several Arcadia riding green Duel Runners approaching him.

"Shit!" He cursed as he put on his blue helmet and revved up his engine before speeding off, with the green Duel Runners in hot pursuit.

"There's nowhere for you to run, intruder!" Neuro, the main rider, called. "Or should I say, Kirito Vulucin?"

The figure looked over his shoulder. "So you DO know about me then." He suddenly swerved to the left, putting a wall between himself and his pursuers.

"You little-!" Neuro snarled. "All of you! Go right and cut him off! I'll deal with him!" The three riders nodded and sped away, whilst he sharply turned at the next passageway, almost ramming into the opposite Duel Runner if he hadn't accelerated first, though the two were quickly speeding side by side before long.

"There's no escape for you now!" Neuro daclared as he pressed a button on his Duel Runner. "Field Spell, Speed World, set!"

"Duel Mode-On. Auto-Pilot: Standby." Both Duel Runners said.

"A Duel, huh?" The figure mumured. "I'm always up for that."

The field spell activated, covering the area in a violet aura.

"DUEL!"

Kirito vs. Neuro LP: 4000

"I'll take the first move!" Neuro said as he drew a card. "I summon Krebons in attack position!" A creepy looking psychic clown with 1200 ATK flew through a portal and next to his Duel Runner. "I end my turn."

"Is that all?" Kirito asked.

"Please, I don't have to get so serious with a thief." He smirked.

"Don't underestimate me." Was the reply. "My turn!"

Both SPC: 0-1

He looked at the cards in his holder; Speed Spell - Superpower, Bad Reaction to Simochi, Genetic Woman, Speed Spell - Panic Summon, Brain Hazard, and the card he just drew: Bright Future.

"I summon Genetic Woman in attack position!" A white skinned woman with leopards hair and ears as well as a giant green claw on her right arm with 1700 ATK appeared.

"Genetic Woman!?" Neuro gasped. "Don't tell me your-!"

"I stole it. I'm free to use it as I please." He stated.

"That Deck is for Psychic Duelists only!" Neuro roared.

"I think otherwise. Genetic Woman! Attack Krebons!" The monster branded its claw as it leaped towards the jester.

"I activate the effect of Krebons!" The attack was interrupted. "When it is targeted for an attack, by reducing my Life Points by 800, I negate that attack!" A barrier appeared around Krebons that shielded it from the slash.

Neuro's LP: 3200

"I set a card and end my turn!" Kirito finished. The two Duel Runners sped up a ramp that led them to speeding across the rooftops, New Domino City spread out before them under the starlit night sky.

"My turn!" Neuro cried.

Both SPC: 1-2

"I summon Telekinetic Shocker in attack position!" A masked figure with electricity crackling around his hands appeared with 1700 ATK.

"A Tuner and another monster...is it coming?" Kirito thought aloud.

"Not yet!" The Psychic Patroller grinned. "I activate the Speed Spell - Speed Down, Level Up!" The card showed a driver with an up arrow and an 'LV' above him. "By reducing my Speed Counters by 2, I increase one of my own monsters Levels by 1! I choose my Telekinetic Shocker!" The monster was boosted to Level 5.

Neuro's SPC: 2-0

"I tune my Level 5 Telekinetic Shocker with my Level 2 Krebons!" Krevons become two green Synchro rings which Telekinetic Shocker passed through, turning into 5 orbs of light that became a beam of light.

"Come to my aid, benevolent psychic woman! Synchro Summon! Appear, Psychic Lifetrancer!" A green skinned woman carrying two orbs, one light and one dark, with 2400 ATK appeared.

"This shall end soon!" The two Duel Runners shot down off of the rooftops and into a tunnel, faint lighting in the darkness being the only thing to illuminate them. "Psychic Lifetrancer! Attack Genetic Woman! Unbalanced Power!" The Synchro combined its two orbs and fired it as a beam that destroyed the monster.

"Ungh!" He grunted as the impact covered him.

Kirito's LP: 3300

"Now I activate Psychic Lifetrancer's effect!" Neuro continued. "By banishing a Psychic-Type monster in my Graveyard, I gain 1200 Life Points! By banishing Telekinetic Shocker, I shall regain the Life Points I paid, and then some!" Lifetrancer's white orb glowed.

"I won't allow that. Continuos Trap, open! Bad Reaction to Simochi!" The Trap flipped into existence. "Whilst this card remains face up on the field, when you would gain Life Points, you take damage equal to the amount you would recover instead!"

"What!?" Neuro gasped as Lifetrancer's black orb instead shocked him. "Aaaaggghhhh!"

Neuro's LP: 2000

"You...turning my monsters effects against me!" He growled. "I end my turn!" The pair raced out of the tunnel, and were now on a proper street, surrounded by tall buildings.

"My turn!"

Neuro's SPC: 0-1

Kirito's SPC: 2-3

Kirito looked at the card he had drawn; PSYFrame Gear Alpha. "This card is..." He placed the card in the holder and took out two different ones. "I set two cards face down and end my turn!"

"What? Is that all? Seems you can't really use that Deck properly after all!" The Duel fell into a backway alley, close walls and near darkness surrounded them. "My turn!"

Neuro's SPC: 1-2

Kirito's SPC: 3-4

"I activate the Speed Spell - Direct Shock!" The card showed a toy robot getting zapped. "When I have 2 or more Speed Counters, I destroy 1 face-up Spell or Trap you control, then inflict 200 damage! I'll destroy Bad Reaction to Simochi!" A small bolt destroyed the card.

Kirito's LP: 3100

"Now I summon Psychic Jumper in attack position!" A maniacal looking Tuner with 100 ATK appeared, cackling creepily. "I tune my Level 7 Psychic Lifetrancer to my Level 2 Psychic Jumper!" Jumper turned into two Synchro rings for Lifetrancer to pass through.

"Come to my aid, almighty telekinetic gunner! Synchro Summon! Appear, Hyper Psychic Blaster!" A giant robotic monster with guns for hands appeared towering over both Duelists with 3000 ATK.

"That's what I've been waiting for!" Kirito declared. "I activate the effect of the PSYFrame Gear Alpha in my hand!"

"PSYFrame Gear Alpha!?" Neuro echoed in shock.

"When my opponent summons a monster when I control no monsters, I can Special Summon this card from my hand!" A somewhat robotic looking monster appeared, with silver claws and black straps for a body. It turned blue due to it being in DEF Position, with a DEF of 0.

"Since I summoned PSYFrame Gear Alpha via its own effect, I can Special Summon PSYFrame Driver from my Deck!" A bolt of lightning shot out of the portal, which quickly turned into a lightning warrior, though he was currently blue with 0 DEF. "And finally, I can add a PSYFrame card from my Deck to my hand. I choose PSYFrame Beta."

"How dare you use those cards!?" Neuro growled. "I shall not forgive you for this! Hyper Psychic Blaster! Attack PSYFrame Gear Alpha!" The monster took aim at the Tuner. "You might think your safe with your monsters in defense position, but when Hyper Psychic Blaster attacks a monster with defence less then its attack, you'll take the difference as damage!" Kirito grit his teeth.

"Cataclysm Cannon!" The Synchro fired and obliterated PSYFrame Gear Alpha.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!" Kirito cried as the impact sent him spinning out of control.

Kirito's LP: 100

Kirito's SPC: 4-1

Neuro grinned. "It hurts, doesn't it? The power of Psychic Duelists." Kirito righted himself, though now with several bruise marks on his body and face. "Now the other effect of Hyper Psychic Blaster allows me to gain Life Points equal to the difference! Peace Elation!" HPB glowed with energy that recovered Neuro.

Neuro's LP: 5000

"A meer normal Duelist can never stand up to us! I will break your very soul! I end my turn! And at this point, due to PSYFrame Gear Alpha's final effect, both it and PSYFrame Driver are removed from the game!" A black portal opened up, which sucked in Alpha from the Graveyard and Driver on the field before closing up. "Now! Make your last pathetic move!"

Kirito was silent for a moment, before speaking. "You cannot crush my soul."

"Huh?"

The straps on his goggles, damaged from the attack, broke, and his goggles flew off into the wind rushing past them, revealing his silver eyes, full of determination. "I will never allow myself to wallow in self-pity ever again!"

He revved up his engine and sped ahead of Neuro, as the two finally reached a long bridge, shining with light that illuminated everything around them.

"My TURN!"

Neuro's SPC: 2-3

Kirito's SPC: 1-2

He looked at the card he'd drawn: Past Image.

'I fell greatly, and truly thought it was the end.' Kirito thought.

"I activate my Trap! Bright Future!" The card flipped up.

'But I'm hoping, that by doing this, I can not only pick myself up again, but do something truly good.'

"By returning two of my banished Psychic monsters to my Graveyard, I draw a card!" He yelled. "I return PSYFrame Driver, and PSYFrame Gear Alpha to my Graveyard!" He placed two fingers on top of his Deck.

'I want to see if what I am doing will be the right path!'

"DRAW!" He drew the card, and looked at it.

Speed Spell - Overboost.

'So I won't look back, and go forward as fast as possible!'

"I activate the Speed Spell - Overboost! This card increases my Speed Counters by 4, but they become 1 at the End Phase!"

Kirito's SPC: 2-6

"I activate the Speed Spell - Panic Summon!" The card showed 2 little monsters panicking as they are thrown out of a cloud. "If I have 5 or more Speed Counters, this allows me to Special Summon 2 monsters from my Graveyard with their effects negated! However, they are destroyed when my first Main Phase ends! Revive! PSYFrame Gear Alpha! PSYFrame Driver!" The two monsters reappeared with 500 and 2500 ATK respectively.

"Those two!?" Neuro gasped. "Are you-!?"

"I tune my Level 6 PSYFrame Driver with my Level 1 PSYFrame Gear Alpha!" Alpha strapped itself onto Driver, and Driver pulled the tightening strap harder and harder until the two monsters burst into a single Synchro ring and 6 spheres of light.

"The scattered rays of victory shall now converge, and propel us into the future at lightspeed!" A powerful beam of light appeared. "Synchro Summon! Form now! PSYFrame Lord Zeta!" A masked warrior clad in black leather appeared, its arms folded in stoic seriousness as powerful psychic energy radiated off of it, with 2500 ATK to boot.

"I-Impossible! Only Psychic Duelists should be able to summon that monster!" Neuro yelled.

"I activate the effect of PSYFrame Lord Zeta!" Kirito yelled. "I may remove from play both this card and 1 Special Summoned attack position monster my opponent controls until my next Standby Phase! I target Hyper Psychic Blaster! Psychic Confinement!" Zeta dashed forward and grabbed Hyper Psychic Blaster, pulling both of them into a black portal.

"You think that will save you!? I'll still finish you off next turn!" Neuro shouted.

"I activate my Continuos Trap, Brain Hazard!" The card appeared. "With this, I can target one Psychic monster I control that was removed from the game, and Special Summon it! Return, Psychic Lord Zeta!" The black portal opened again, and Zeta flew out, arms still folded.

"It's back!?" Neuro exclaimed.

"Finally, I activate the Speed Spell - Superpower!" The card showed a silhouette with a powerful red aura. "When I have 6 or more Speed Counters, by reducing my Speed Counters to 0, I can double the attack of one monster I control until the End Phase!"

"What did you say!?"

Kirito's SPC: 6-0

"Now, Lord Zeta's attack shall double!" A powerful aura overcame Zeta, boosting its ATK to 5000.

"5000 attack!?" Neuro yelled.

"Go! PSYFrame Lord Zeta! Zero Force!" Zeta gathered all of its psychic energy and unleashed it in a blast of pure white energy that smashed into Neuro.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh!"

Neuro's LP: 0

Kirito: WIN!

Neuro's Duel Runner began emitting heavy smoke from the loss, and he soon became unbalanced and had to stop, leaving Kirito to speed off across the bridge unhindered as the rest of the Psychic Patrollers arrived at their leaders location.

Back at Arcadia, Sayer looked out of the window at the smoke drifting from the bridge, and hardened his expression. "Kirito Vulucin...you'll pay for this."

Speed Spell - Speed Down, Level Up: Target 1 monster you control; reduce your Speed Counters by 2, and increase that monsters Level by 1.

Speed Spell - Direct Shock: If you have 2 or more Speed Counters; target 1 face up Spell/Trap your opponent controls. Destroy it, then inflict 200 damage to your opponent.

Speed Spell - Panic Summon: If you have 5 or more Speed Counters; Special Summon 2 monsters from your Graveyard, their effects are negated, and they are destroyed when the current Main Phase ends.

Speed Spell - Superpower: If you have 6 or more Speed Counters; target 1 face-up monster you control, reduce your Speed Counters to 0, and double that monsters ATK until the End Phase.
