At the Stadium, there are mixed reactions among the audience over the two new Kings. Carly holds a camera to her face as she stutters to announce that Yusei and Kaeya have just beaten Jack. Angela appears, pushing Carly aside and reports the same story, although appearing much more professional, while her own cameraman films her. Carly approaches Angela to tell her off. Angela teases Carly saying she thought she was only rehearsing and pointing out that Carly hasn't changed; she still stutters. Carly's anger builds up, but Angela takes off in search of someone to interview. Carly quickly dashes to do the same. With members of the crowd still cheering for Yusei and Kaeya, Jack is taken away in a stretcher. Some of the crowd start jeering at Yusei. Not trusting him for being from Satellite and having a criminal mark, they start suspect he was up to no good, resulting in Jack's injury. While more people were cheering for me since I'm from New Domino City. He and I saw Yanagi, Leo and Tanner running towards us.


"Hey, guys." Yusei greeted, surprised they were all out of breath. "Everyone okay?"


"We're fine." Yanagi panted, looking exhausted. "But you're both about to face a brand-new enemy . . . The Media!" He pointed at the journalists and cameramen ready with their tape recorders and cameras, questions firing off faster than any rifle could.


"Yes! Ah, Yusei, Kaeya, over here! Uh, can you pose for a picture?"


"What are your plans, now that you've won, Mister Fudo and Mister Kaeya? Or shall we call you princess? Queen? Your highness?" Yusei and I gave a surprised gasp as the barricade that held the swarm of reporters broke and let them free, all of them heading our way with mics drawn out like swords.


"They're loose!" Leo cried out.


"Better rev it up!" Tanner said, pushing along Yusei's Runner while I transported my duel runner back to my ship. We all ran away from the media as fast as we could.

"Yusei and Kaeya are running away!" Lazar pointed out to Goodwin, looking back and forth. "Is that okay? What even happened at the end of that Duel? What was that strange light all about? Does it change anything? Is it okay that Jack lost?" His questions were all over the place.


"Who won and who lost is not important. What's important is that the stars have finally begun to align. Soon, they will become one. That's the only thing that matters right now!" Goodwin replied, smiling secretly with mirth while Lazar held his lanky arms in mid-flail.

"Where are we?" Dexter asked, walking beside as the group of eight walked in a dark passage under the arena, the droplets of water echoing in the metal cavern.
