Akiza felt herself being followed as she made her way through the city. She looked over her shoulder, but saw no one. Akiza turned back around and started walking again, sweeping her eyes from side to side. She saw someone looking at her. Akiza narrowed her eyes trying to get a better look at the man. He turned and started running in the other direction. Akiza ran after him. "Hey! Stop!" Akiza shouted, running after him. She followed him down an alley. The man turned around and looked straight at Akiza. He was wearing a hood, but some of his hair, which looked somewhat familiar, was poking out. "Sayer? Is that you?" Akiza asked, but he didn't answer. All he did was activate his duel disk and place a card on the blade. Telekinetic Shocker appeared in front of him and it released a torrent of electricity at Akiza.
"It is not your time. Stay away from things you don't understand," he said. Telekinetic Shocker let out another burst of electricity, one bolt hitting Akiza in the arm. She let out a shriek of pain and fell. She looked up, but the man had left. Akiza stood up, rubbing her arm.
I can't believe that was Sayer, Akiza thought. She left the alley and started running to Yusei's, clutching her arm. She burst into the garage and rushed down the steps. "Yusei?" Akiza called.
Yuri got up from the couch. "He went out to register for that turbo dueling tournament with Jack and Crow," Yuri said. "What's up?"
"I ran into someone. I think it was Sayer," Akiza said.
"Sayer, as in the Sayer that was in charge of the Acadia Movement?" Yuri asked. "I thought they locked him up in the Facility and threw away the key."
"So did I, But I chased him down an alley, and he shocked me with one of his monsters," Akiza said. Yuri grabbed the first aide kit from under the sink. Akiza sat and rolled down her glove. Yuri applied some burn cream and wrapped it in gauze. "But I still can't believe it was Sayer."
"So let's find out," Yuri said, taping the gauze down.
"Do you think Mina will let us down there?" Akiza asked.
"We won't know until we ask right? I say it's worth the trip," Yuri said. "And then if nothing comes from that, then we just sneak in."
"Your kidding, right?" Akiza asked, giggling.
"Nope. I'll hook us up with key cards. Used to forge duel monster cards. Sold like, ten Blue-Eyes White Dragons. Made a fortune... well a fortune for Satellite that is," Yuri said through a chuckle. "But, nothing bad can come from asking though, right?"
"I guess not," Akiza said. She stood and put her glove back on. Yuri threw on his coat and hailed a taxi.
"Sector Security," Yuri said, getting in next to Akiza. The driver nodded and pulled into traffic.
"So, you really sold forged duel monster cards?" Akiza asked.
"Oh yeah. Mainly sold to the duel gangs that Kalin, Jack, Yusei, and Crow went after. Mainly the really good cards too, like Dark Magician and Blue-Eyes. Those guys couldn't resist getting their hands on one of them. Even gave Yusei a program to track them," Yuri said. "They weren't all that convincing though. Have no idea how I pulled it off for so long," Yuri bragged.
"Someone must've caught on," Akiza said. "It's hard to believe these guys would just buy them blindly."
"I'm telling you, no one came after me," Yuri said. A few minutes later, the taxi pulled up in front of Sector Security headquarters. Yuri handed the driver some money and they went inside. Yuri hung back while Akiza went up to the front desk. She came back with two visitors passes and handed one to Yuri.
"He said we can go straight up," Akiza said, clipping hers to her corset and handing the other to Yuri. He clipped his to his belt and followed Akiza to the elevator. They rode the elevator in silence. Yuri adjusted his belt, then looked through his cards. The elevator stopped and the doors opened. Yuri and Akiza walked down the hall to Mina's office. The blue haired Mina stood up from her desk as the two approached.
"Akiza! It's so good to see you," Mina said.
"It's great to see you too," Akiza said. "This is Yuri, one of Yusei's friends."
"Yes. I'm aware of him," Mina said.
"How aware are you, if you don't mind me asking?" Yuri asked.
"Well, you were in the Facility for a time for illegal dueling," Mina said. Yuri grinned and slid his cards back in their holster.
"Well, if that's all you have on me, then it's a pleasure to meet you," Yuri said, shaking Mina's hand.
"What can I do for you?" Mina asked, sitting back down. Yuri and Akiza exchanged a look.
"Would you mind if we talk privately?" Akiza asked. Mina just gave a look of confusion, and nodded. She led the two of them into a conference room and closed the door.
"What is it?" Mina asked again.
"It's about Sayer. I was wondering if I could talk to him," Akiza said. Mina's face fell into shock.
"Why?" Mina asked.
"Well, I was going to Yusei's place and saw someone following me. I confronted the guy in an alley and he shocked me with a duel monster," Akiza said.
"He was a psychic duelist? Are you sure about that?" Mina asked.
"The electrical burn on her arm that looks real to me," Yuri said. "But that's not the really good part."
"The monster was one of Sayer's," Akiza said. "Telekinetic Shocker. And whoever he was sounded just like him."
"Are you absolutely sure? Because Sayer has been under constant surveillance. He's not allowed out of his cell and we took special precautions so he can't use his powers," Mina said, activating a CCTV. A man sat in a cell, staring into the camera. "We would know if Sayer tried to escape."
"Can I point out the obvious for a minute? Because it could be possible that Sayer switched himself with a very convincing body double," Yuri said, leaning against the table. "I mean, this guy was in charge of the Arcadia Movement, right? So it's possible that he had a guy switch with him before getting locked up in the Facility."
"Yeah, I guess so," Mina said. "I'll arrange it for you to speak with Sayer."
"Thank you Mina," Akiza said. Mina led them outside and showed them to a car. She told the driver to take them to the Facility and went back inside. The driver pulled away from the curb. They rode in silence, until they pulled into the Facility complex. Akiza looked at it in awe. "You know, I've heard of the Facility, but I've never seen it before."
"Yeah? Well, I never thought that I'd ever see it again," Yuri said darkly. The car pulled up and Akiza and Yuri went into the complex. They were met by the warden, a man named Mr. Lu.
"Right this way," Mr. Lu said, leading them into a separate room. "Mr. Sayer will be along shortly," Mr. Lu said.
"Thank you," Akiza said. Yuri looked back at Mr. Lu as he left. "What's wrong?"
"I could swear I met that guy before," Yuri said. They waited for a few minutes. Finally the other door opened and closed.
"Hello Akiza," the new comer said. Sayer had entered and sat down at the table.
