The Stolen Runner

A few days later after Dale is told what had happened with the giant red dragon
Dawn:(wakes up) huh Garrett are you still here
Garrett walks in
Garrett: Good morning Dawn
Dawn: Oh there you are
Garrett: just thought I'd bring you a little bit of breakfast
Dawn(blushes) Oh thanks
after Dawn eats
Dawn:(LP1300) now I'll attack your Speed Warrior with my Aquatic Dragon(7/2600/2000)
Garrett: I'll activate Defense Draw so I can negate all that damage and so I can draw a card
Dawn: Aw if that would have hit I would have won
Garrett:(LP1100) That's right Dawn you would have won but now its my turn(draws a card) and I summon out my second Junk Synchron(3/1300/500) and with his effect I'll bring back Speed Warrior(2/900/400) and because I control a tuner monster Quillbolt Hedgehog comes back as well(2/800/800) now my three monsters tune together in order to synchro summon the Junk Archer(7/2300/2000)
Dawn: But your monster's weaker than mine
Garrett: True but that's where his effect comes in
Dawn: What effect?
Garrett: An effect that lets me remove your monster from play until the end of the turn
Dawn: Oh no
Garrett: Let's finish this Junk Archer attack her directly
Dawn: Aw man(LP0) I lost
Garrett: That may be Dawn but you put up a good fight
Dawn: You're right Garrett thanks for teaching me how to duel
Garrett: No problem Dawn
Dale: I see you 2 are still training
Dawn: Of course we are Dale
Garrett: Any important news?
Dale: Of course there is
Dawn: Like what?
Dale: The doctors said you can be released today Dawn
Dawn:(jumps for joy) That's awesome news(hugs Dale and Garrett)
Garrett: It sure is
Dale:(chuckles) Man I love you guys
Dawn: This is no time to get emotional
Garrett: Yeah we should be celebrating
Dale: Alright then dinners on me tonight
Dawn: Yeah
Dale: I'll go get our runners Garrett
Garrett: Alright I'll go get Dawn checked out
they all split up
Garrett: There you go Dawn you're all good to go
Dawn: Alright where's Dale at?
Dale runs in
Garrett: Um right there
Dale: Guys we've got a problem
Garrett: What problem?
Dawn: Is it serious?
Dale: You tell me, Garrett your duel runner was stolen
Garrett:(shocked) WHAT!
Dawn: Yeah that is pretty serious
Garrett: Alright here's the plan were going to look for my runner
Dale: How dude?
Garrett: Remember I put that chip in it so it could be tracked
Dale: Oh yeah
Dawn: Wow that's a good idea
Garrett: So then let's go look it up online we'll find it quick enough
Dawn: Let's go
Dale: Right behind you
They search on the hospital computer for a few hours
Dale: Dude we've been searching for like 3 hours
Dawn: Yeah how much longer could this take?
Garrett: None I've found it
Dawn: Really?
Dale: Where is it?
Garrett: It's locked in the Security Impound Center
Dale: Why
Dawn: What's wrong Dale?
Garrett: Nothing yet it's just that it's pretty impossible to get in there is the problem
Dale: Wait I know a guy
Garrett: You do?
Dawn: Who?
Dale: His name is Blister and he can help us out
Garrett: Then let's not waste anytime
Dale: Alright I'll give him a call
Garrett: Meet me at my house in 2 hours we'll head out then
Dale: Alright
Dale leaves
Dawn: How are you getting home without your duel runner?
Garrett: I'll more than likely just walk
Dawn: Oh
Garrett: You can come with me if you want to
Dawn: Okay then let's go
Garrett and Dawn leave
at Garrett's house
Garrett: Here we are this is my house
Dawn: Wow it's amazing how do your afford this place do you have your parents pay for it
Garrett: Actually both of my parents died while I was a baby it's just me living here right now
Dawn: Oh I'm sorry I didn't know
Garrett: No Dawn it's okay that why I'm so protective of my friends because they're all I have left
Dawn: But still how do you afford this place?
Garrett: Like I've mentioned before duel runners are my hobby me and Dale have opened our own shop here and that is what pays for my house
Dawn: Hey when is Dale going to be back here?
Garrett: I hope soon because I really want my duel runner back
They do random things until Dale rides up into the driveway
Dawn: I think he's here
Garrett: Yeah let's go
Dawn and Garrett walk outside
Garrett: So what did Blister say?
Dale: He said he can get you into the impound center then I'll be your back-up if you even need it
Garrett: Alright that sounds like a plan
Dawn: Then let's get going
at Blister's apartment
Blister: So you must be Garrett
Garrett: That's right I am
Blister: I heard about your problem from Dale and I think it's ridiculous
Garrett: Well can you help me or not?
Blister: I can
Dale: Then let's begin
Dawn: Here we go(sighs)
It takes all night but the heroes finally formulate a plan for recovering the lost duel runner
the next day
Garrett: Zzzzz
Dawn: Garrett wake up wake up
Garrett: Huh wha oh hey Dawn what's going on
Dawn: The mission it's starting soon
Garrett: Oh right I almost forgot about it
Dale: Everybody knows the plan right?
Garrett: We better cause we only get one shot at this
Blister: Here's the supplies you'll need I wish you guys luck
Dawn: Same from me
Garrett: Thanks for the support guys
Dale: Yeah this shouldn't take long
the two guys leave for the impound center
Dale: You ready for this buddy?
Garrett: As ready as I'll ever be
Dale: Then go and get your ride back
Garrett: Alright I'm going in
Garrett goes through the impound center and finally finds his duel runner
Garrett: Ah here we are reunited at last
spotlights shine on Garrett and a voice is heard
?: Well well well what do we have here?
Garrett: Trudge is that you!
Trudge: Why yes Garrett it is me its been awhile hasn't it
Garrett: Why are you here Trudge I thought your job was to patrol the streets of the satellite
Trudge: Nope I got a promotion
Garrett: Well that still doesn't answer my question
Trudge: Well let's see here you're breaking into the impound center and that is highly illegal so what do you think I'm doing here
Garrett: I just want my runner back Trudge it is mine you know
Trudge: You know you remind me a lot of a duelist named Yusei Fudo
Garrett: Yusei Fudo! Do you know him?
Trudge: I see you have some history with Yusei
Garrett: Well yeah he was one of my best friends but I haven't seen him since I left the satellite
Trudge: Then allow me to start the reunion because you'll see him as soon as I send you to the facility
Garrett: Wait Yusei's in the facility
Trudge: That's right Garrett
Garrett: I don't know how you got to Yusei but you're not getting to me
Garrett climbs into the box that contains his runner
Trudge: Sorry Garrett but that runner is offline
Garrett:(starts up his runner) Yeah offline
Garrett breaks through the box and drives off
while riding on the duel runner
Garrett: Well that certainly was close talk about a blast from the past
Trudge comes out of nowhere and slams into Garrett's runner
Garrett: Argh(angry) Trudge
Trudge: Did ya miss me
Garrett: Not really no
Trudge: When you and Dale left the satellite a year ago it was illegally so therefore when I beat you here you're going straight back to the satellite and then Dale will be joining you
Garrett: That is assuming you can catch me first
Trudge: This is going to be a trip down memory lane Garrett and when I beat you you're going straight to the facility(he activates speed world 2)
Garrett: Looks like I have no choice I'm going first(draws a card) and I summon Debris Dragon in defense mode(4/1000/2000) and I end my turn
Trudge: Then it's my turn(draws a card)
speed counters G 1
speed counters T 1
outside the impound center
Dale: Uh oh I have a bad feeling that Garrett just might need some help(he rides off inside the building)
with Garrett and Trudge
Trudge: I summon Search Striker in attack mode(4/1600/1200) and I'll end with a face down your move
Garrett: Then I go(draws a card)
speed counters G 2
speed counters T 2
Garrett: I summon speed warrior in attack mode(2/900/400) and during this turn his attack points are doubled(1800) now I'm switching debris Dragon into attack mode and attacking with Speed Warrior
Trudge:(LP3800) hum lucky move
Garrett: Oh I'm not done yet now debris dragon attacks you directly
Trudge: ahhh(LP2800)
Garrett: I end with two cards face down and Speed Warrior returns to normal(900)
Trudge: And I begin(draws a card)
speed counters G 3
speed counters T 3
Trudge: I summon to the field Pursuit Chaser(3/1400/600) and I activate Regret Reborn to bring back search striker(4/1600/1200) now Search Striker will attack your Speed Warrior
Garrett: Sorry Trudge but I activate Defense Draw to negate all the damage and to draw a card
Trudge: But since your monster was destroyed you still lose 300 points due to Pursuit Chaser's ability
Garrett: arg(LP3700)
Trudge: And now Pursuit Chaser will attack your Debris Dragon
Garrett: ahhh(LP3400)
Trudge: And now his ability activates again
Garrett: ahh(LP3100)
Trudge: I end my turn with a face down
Garrett: Then it's my turn(draws a card)
speed counters G 4
speed counters T 4
Garrett: I summon Junk Synchron(3/1300/500) and with his effect I can bring back Speed Warrior(2/900/400)and next I'll synchro summon Junk Warrior(5/2300/1300)
Trudge: Sorry Garrett but you'll have to wait if you want to synchro summon because I play this trap card discord counter now your synchro monster returns to your deck and your other 2 monsters come back in def mode(3/1300/500)(2/900/400)
Garrett: I end my turn with this face down card
Trudge: Then I go(draws a card)
speed counters G 5
speed counters T 5
Trudge: I activate the speed spell speed energy so my striker gains 100 attack points for every one of my speed counters(2100) now both of my monsters will attack and you'll lose LPs thanks to my monsters ability
Garrett: ahh(LP2500)
Trudge: It's your move now cause I end with this face down
Garrett: Man this is not good I better make a move and fast
Dale comes out of nowhere and knocks Trudge out of the way Trudge then falls behind
Garrett: Great timing Dale
Dale: Hey I just came to see what was taking so long
Garrett: It's an old time ache that I just can't seem to get rid of
Dale: That doesn't surprise me Trudge is always getting in the way but what's he doing here
Garrett: There's no time for that Dale we have to get outta here before Trudge completely locks us in
Dale: I hear ya man I'm working on our escape as we speak
Trudge comes back
Trudge: You thought you could get rid of me that easily huh well then you're sadly mistaken
Dale: What do you want from us Trudge can't you see that were busy
Trudge: Still a wise guy huh Dale too bad your lousy puns wont be getting you guys out of the facility any time soon it's still your move Hughes and you better make one
Garrett: Then I go(draws a card)
speed counters G 6
speed counters T 6
Garrett: I activate my trap card Reinforce Truth so I can summon Fortress Warrior from my deck but with the price of not battling this turn(2/600/1200) now I activate my other face down witch is monster catapult so by sending Fortress Warrior to the graveyard I can destroy Pursuit Chaser
Trudge: Ugh that was all luck
Garrett: Now I summon rapid warrior in atk mode(4/1200/200) next I'll activate a speed spell one known as battle recovery
speed counters G 3
speed counters T 6
Garrett: This card let's me regain my battle phase for this turn and with Rapid Warrior's effect I can attack you directly go
Trudge: ahhh(LP1600)
Garrett: I'll end with a face down you're up
Trudge: I go(draws a card)
speed counters G 4
speed counters T 7
Trudge: I activate my face down card Last Resort so now by sending trap cards on my field to the graveyard next turn I can deal direct damage to you to the tune of 500 per card so now I lay 3 cards face down and summon Torapart(2/400/200) and he tunes with my Search Striker in order to synchro summon the Goyo Guardian(6/2800/2000) and I'll have him attack your Rapid Warrior
Garrett: urg(LP900)
Trudge: And thanks to Goyo's effect your Rapid Warrior is now mine in def mode(4/1200/200) I end my turn now it's to you and you better make it count because it's your last
Dale: He's right Garrett because on his next turn you'll lose 2000 LP thanks to his Last Resort card
Garrett: There won't be a next turn I go(draws a card)
speed counters G 5
speed counters T 8
Garrett: And I activate the speed spell Cup of Life so I now regain 500LPs(LP1400) next I summon out to the field Turbo Synchron(1/100/500) now I'll attack Goyo Guardian with him
Trudge: You're going to lose this battle Hughes
Garrett: Actually no I'm not because I use turbo's ability he can switch your monster into def mode(2000) next I activate Spirit Barrier. This trap prevents me from taking battle damage when a monster's on the field.
Trudge: I don't get the point of that though
Garrett:(LP500) now I can summon another monster from my hand thanks to turbo synchrons ability so rise Apocatequil(4/1800/1200) and because i control a tuner monster he gains one level(5) now i synchro summon Turbo Warrior(6/2500/1500) and now I activate my last face down card Last Stand Survival it let's me redo my battle phase this turn and with a bonus I can inflict piercing damage
Trudge: That's still not enough to finish me off though
Garrett: Actually it's more than enough because you forgot that Rapid Warrior is still on your side of the field
Trudge: OH NO!
Garrett: And that's plenty to finish you off attack turbo warrior
Trudge: Ah(LP0)
Trudge's runner stops and the two heroes escape the impound center just before the door closes
Dale: Good come back move man you sure showed Trudge a thing or two
Garrett: And I got my runner back to
Dale: Yeah let's go tell Dawn
Garrett: You can Dale
Dale: What you're not coming with me
Garrett: I'll meet up with you guys later right now i have to go and get Yusei out of the facility
Dale: You found Yusei and he's in the facility
Garrett: Trudge told me that's where he was and I'm getting him out of there
Dale: Alright man I'm not gonna try to stop you. You just be careful okay
Garrett: Can do(he rides off)
Dale: 'I can't believe we found Yusei again we'll be reunited soon my old friend Garrett will make sure of that I better go tell Dawn the news.' (He rides off)
