Chapter 1: The Incident Years Later

Note: I showed Kara's appearance in her bio in the beginning but not her avatar. I'll show that in the end of this chapter. I'm glad some of you guys enjoyed the story so far. 😊❤

Kara is leaning against the railing, looking up at the clear skies at an oceanside locale called Stardust Road. She was reeling in from what happened months ago; she became a member of The Knights of Hanoi, meeting a boy named Yusaku Fujiki, also known as Playmaker. A very well-known duelist who defeated the organization from destroying the virtual reality world known as LINK VRAINS with Blue Angel and Go Onizuka. Obtaining an Ignis that was on the run to lure them in and the leader himself, Revolver. Her meeting as Spirit Seeker with Playmaker was unexpected when they first dueled in LINK VRAINS and in reality when they both go to the same school together. Kara still befriended him (which Yusaku didn't mind with her following him around) and his Ignis, Ai, along with Kusanagi. Now, as a former member, she can live on with her life, but with a new enemy had came in, Spirit Seeker and Playmaker made a new ally, Soulburner. His actual name is Takeru Homura and his partner is the Fire Ignis, Flame.

Kara sighed as her hair was tickled by the soft kiss of the wind that blew in her direction. She fiddled with her braid and her violet hair clip until...

"How long are you going to keep making that expression?"

Kara glanced to her right to see her duel spirit and ace, Starbright HERO Dragon Ryoko, sitting on the railing. "Cut me some slack, Ryo. Don't you think it was crazy that it's been 3 months that Link Vrains is saved thanks to Yusaku and the others?" Ryoko was silent as Kara continued to speak, "And to top things off, another threat crashes into the party." "Soulburner and his Fire Ignis came to help us." Kara felt another spirit's presence but its sitting on her shoulder. "Kuri!" Kara giggles by the fur ball's nuzzling against her cheek. "Relax Winged Kuriboh. There's no need to get excited."

"You should consider taking in your own advice, Kara."

She made a pouty face by Elemental HERO Neo's statement. "Really Neos?" Ryoko rolled her eyes at her master's childish remark. Neos continued to speak, "Although, that Takeru boy may be our ally now, but he does look suspicious.." Ryoko shrugged and said, "I have my suspension on him as well but he doesn't look like the bad guy who can betray us or something." Winged Kuriboh cooed in agreement. Kara spoke, "You don't have to trust him if you wanted to, Neos. He's just a person that we met a couple days ago and I feel like he's the type who... You know, who could probably use a boost of confidence." Stardust Dragon appeared and softly growled, agreeing with his master's point of view.

A honk was heard as Kara turned around and she surprised to see a familiar food truck come by. "Kusanagi?" Shoichi Kusanagi smiled as he raised his arm in a wave gesture. "Yo." Along with him was Takeru and Flame. Ryoko said, "We'll continue this later Kara." The duel spirits left, leaving Kara to hang out with her friends and setting up the table and chairs since the boys decided that they should hang out here.

"How come Yusaku didn't come with you guys?" Kara asked as she took a sip of her soda. Takeru shrugged and replied, "From what Ai told us, Yusaku was dragged by Naoki to join him and his club mates for a meeting or something like that." Shoichi gave an amused chuckle, imagining Yusaku's expression on his face. "I bet he's trying to make an excuse in order to get here." He looks at Kara and added, "Speaking of Yusaku, did you confess to him yet~?" Kara became still as her face became a crimson color while Takeru's blue eyes widen in surprise. "Y-you have those feelings for him Kara?" Flame, who just came out of Takeru's duel disk, shook his head and crossed his arms. "You just realized that now?" The white-red highlighted boy crossed his arms and said, "Hey! I was just surprised okay?" Takeru slightly pouted by his Ignis' response. Kara snapped out of her trance and makes her comeback. "S-says the o-one who's got the same feelings for Hoshiko!" Now it was Shoichi's turn who blushed, which made Kara laugh. "What is it with humans and romance..?" Flame mumbled under his breath and Takeru could agree with him but he had a grin on his face.
