(3rd Person PoV)

Yuga was headed back to his lab after installing Rush Duels into every Goha duel disk. He wanted to make any finishing touches that Rush Dueling may need. After that, he planned on going home.

He unlocked the door to his lab, went in and closed it behind him.

He then went to his desk and was about to place his duel disk down when he spotted something small and rectangular on his desk.

What's that? Yuga took a closer look and saw that it was a duel card. One of legend.

"Stardust Dragon? Who could have left it here?" Yuga was so sure that he locked his lab earlier and he doesn't remember having this card.

So where could it have come from?

He picked it up and stared at the dragon. It felt so...majestic, powerful...safe.

He felt a cold breeze suddenly come in and he turned around and saw him.

A tall figure with spikey hair and wore a jacket.

Yuga could tell that he was a ghost due to the transparency of the figure.

Oh yeah, Yuga can see ghosts and can talk to them. Is that a shocker? Not really.

"Hey," the figure said.

Yuga sighed at this and said, "Another one. What'll it be this time? The usual?"

"The usual?" The ghost tilted his head in confusion.

"Yeah something to pass on and all of that. Got any last wishes before you go to the afterlife?" Yuga asked, getting right to business.

The ghost looked at him, confused.

"I don't understand. I just woke up somewhere and wandered off. I left something very precious behind though and I was looking for it," he explained.

"Ah, would that be this," Yuga held up the card.

"Stardust Dragon! Yes, I was looking for that," the ghost nodded.

Yuga was about to give it to him before he remembered two very important things.

One, the card was solid and he was unsure if the ghost could even pick it up.

And two, as his mother told him that a human and a ghost must not touch humanly things at the same time.

He doesn't particularly know the reason why but he suspects that the ghost must stick by his side and is connected to his soul until the ghost passes on.

Unfortunately, looks like no one told the ghost that as he reached for his card.

"Hey wait!" Yuga cried out but it was too late.

As just soon as the ghost touched the card, a large silvery glow began to shine and bind them together.

Yuga felt something heavy on his heart and he gripped his shirt where his heart is. He felt hot and cold at the same time.

Then he saw flashes of a junkyard that looked...lonely, abandoned, depressed, and trapped. The people were a mix of those with yellow markers on their faces and those without.

They all had a similar expression on their face.

Trapped.

Yuga suddenly snapped out of it and saw that he was in his lab again, the ghost was still there but looked confused again.
