"No way, Veid was the Ghost rider!" Nickkel gasped.

"Expected," Silver said flatly. "Stated fact." Nightmare nodded. "He's been suspicious ever since we arrived." She said, shrugging. "I was too busy dropping lanterns to notice." Seven said, her guard lowering a bit. Twilight chuckled at her comrade. "Come to think of it, he first appeared in town after, the fog began to settle in." - Garba confirmed.

Veid smirked, speaking up. "Well, now you caught me." He raised his hand to surrender. "I'll take you all at once." He grinned evilly.

"Take us all at once?!" Silver's eyes widened. Being calm and collected doesn't matter when you're surprised, now does it, Silver?

"Hold on!"Nickkel shouted, catching everyone's attention. "Leave him, Trickkie and I will handle it!" He declared, and it was Veid's turn to gasp.

"Nickkel, pardon me for asking are you experienced at monkart racing?" Louis questioned, a bit worried.

"Trickkie and I are the greatest team in Ghostia Town!" The magenta-eyed male told the ravenette, fist-bumping his monster.

"I see..." He nodded, letting them do what they had to. "But you haven't raced in such a long time!" Jin tried to reason with him. "Not a problem is it right, Trickkie?" The white-haired teenager turned to Trickkie.

To which Trickkie returns with a thumbs-up. "I think your monsters are going to need some serious rest." He told them, glancing at the two. 

Lancelot was so exhausted that he became wobbly, falling on Draka.

"Draka and Lancelot seemed worn out," Laura said, concerned. "It was an intense battle." Seven chimed in. "They shouldn't strain themselves." Sena sighed, also worried about the monster's health.

"Veid, I'm going to take you down!" Nickkel threatened Veid. "We'll see about that." The pale boy replied with a snarl.

It's obvious which team will win, but team Nickkel and Trickkie dare to challenge the invincible ghost rider!" The commentator exclaimed as Veid smirked. 

Nickkel looked serious about the race, determined to win. "Monkart, track on!" Both boys shouted at the same time. "Let's go! Trickkie!" Nickkel shouted and pointed his monsword out to the front.

"Dante, let's show what we've got!" The crimson-eyed teenager shouted as the two monsters sped off. "Let's have some fun!" Dante laughed sinisterly, shooting his attack at Trickkie. He dodged all the attacks but one, making Nickkel concerned.

"Trickkie!" He yelled.

"Wow! Incredible play as always! He's starting strong from the gecko!" The commentator spoke up.

"They're the best team ever?" Laura raised a brow, a bit disappointed. "I hope they didn't mean the greatest in losing..." Kuby added. Both of their gazes were set on Nickkel, who was gripping onto his monsword tightly.

"He doesn't look anxious at all, he surely must have something up his sleeve." Sir Joke looked down at them. "He's up to something, I can tell." Silver said as Corsader perched on his shoulder.

Dante giggled creepily. "I will take you down!" Nickkel only smirked. "Now's our chance! Trickkie, Hollow Drive!" He commanded, and Trickkie obeyed. He seemed excited to use this attack again after so long. When Dante was going to hit Trickkie, he became transparent like a ghost and Dante crashed into the wall of the circuit.

"Dante!" He exclaimed. "W-what was that!?" Dante stammered, confused. "Trickkie has the power to doge any attack to go right through him," Nickkel explained with a grin.
