Caught in the Spider's Web

On the helicopter
Dale: alright guys so what's the plan of attack
Mina: Well according to radar this area right here hasn't been covered by the fog so we'll start there and look for any survivors
Ash: I know this place
Yusei: That's Martha's orphanage
Garrett: I hope she's okay
Dawn: wait you mentioned her before
Akiza: Who is she
Yusei: Well Martha's the one who raised me Jack, Crow, and Garrett when we were little
Garrett: And she's my grandmother
Dale: Now I remember her she used to make me scrub the toilets and stuff
Garrett: Trust me Dale you needed the work
Dawn: But does that mean
Akiza: You two are cousins
Yusei: Well we're not blood related but since Martha's my foster mother and my parents are gone and Garrett's grandmother you could call us cousins(smiles at Garrett)
Garrett: Yup(smiles back) You could also call Jack and Crow my cousins too
Dale: Interesting
Mina: Guys we're here
The helicopter descends and lands on Martha's front yard
Martha: Now who could that be
Blister: We're about to find out
Garrett and Yusei along with the others step off the plane
Blister: It's Garrett
Martha: And Dale's back to(she runs and hugs Dale)
Dale: Argh please Martha I'm glad to see you to but you're killing me
Akiza/Dawn:(giggles)
Trudge: Wow this place actually doesn't look half bad
Garrett: Hey Martha
Yusei: Have you heard from the others
Martha: When you 2 left so did Rally, Tank, Blitz, and Nervin and sadly no I haven't heard back from them my guess is that they have all been swallowed up by this dark fog
Blister: Same with Crow we haven't heard from him either
Ash: That's a problem (heads inside the orphanage)
Garrett: Aw man
Martha: How did your rescue mission go
Yusei: It was okay I guess
Dale: Are you kidding yourself Yusei you and Garrett did great at waking up Dawn and Akiza
Martha: Hey Dale I've got a few toilets that are just begging for you to clean them
Dale: Noooooooooo(falls to his knees and looks up at the sky)
Dawn:(giggles) Sorry Dale
Akiza: Yeah tough luck bud
Martha: You must be Akiza and Dawn then nice to finally meet you
Akiza: Yeah Garrett and Yusei told us how you raised them Jack and Crow
Dawn: And how you're Garrett's grandmother
Martha: Yup Garrett is cousins with Yusei Jack and Crow oh and by the way they both have told me so much about you to and you too are just as beautiful as they have said
Akiza: Oh(raises eyebrow and looks at Yusei)
Dawn: I see(does the same as Akiza except she looks at Garrett)
Yusei/Garrett:(groan) Martha!
Martha: And you must be Mina and officer Trudge right
Mina: Yes mama
Trudge: That's right
Martha: good then let's all go in and eat you guys can't save the world on an empty stomach
then a little kid walks up to Trudge
Toka: Hey there mister
Trudge: Huh what do you want kid go away
Toka: Are you sector security?
Trudge: Yeah why?
Toka: I wanna be sector security too some day
Trudge: Really now well play your cards right and some day you might look as good as me in this uniform
Toka: Cool
at the dinner table
Dale: Um Martha your cooking is even greater then I remember
Martha: Why thank you Dale
Toka: Hey Dale what have you and Garrett been doing in the city for the last year
Martha: Yeah I'd love to hear about it
Kids: Yeah
Garrett: You can tell them Dale
Dale: Well alright sure. When me and Garrett first got to the city the 2 of us decided to open up a duel runner build and repair shop
Dawn: Right and with the money you guys earned with that you bough that huge house right Garrett
Garrett: That's right Dawn but if you thought my house was big then you should check out Dale's place it's at least twice the size
Dawn: Really
Garrett: Yup
Akiza: That's amazing
Martha: You always were the opulent one Dale
Dale: And I have you to thank for that Martha
Toka: So was living in the city as great as it's said to be
Garrett: Far from it Toka while it might be better living conditions then the satellite there's just as much trouble over there as there is here
Martha: Like what?
Dale: James
Toka: Who's James
Dale: James the devious son of director Goodwin
Toka: Cool
Dale: Well James is nothing but a big bully in fact 2 weeks into living in the city James challenged Garrett to a duel and then took his Stardust Dragon card
Toka: Oh no
Martha: Did you get it back
Garrett: Yeah I got it back but James was sent by his father to try and get it from me in the first place
Dale: Actually Goodwin set everything up including us moving into the satellite
Yusei: Goodwin tricked us all just so he could see if we were all truly signers or not
Martha: I see
Garrett: But enough about us what's been happening here
Martha: Nothing any different then what you guys experienced while you grew up here
Akiza: That's so sad
Dawn: Yeah
Yusei: Hey kids if we manage to win this next battle then Goodwin promised to finish the bridge that connects the satellite to the city
Garrett: That's right Yusei that bridge will bring people together
the kids all cheer
then a lightning bolt strikes down outside and all the windows are blown out
Akiza: What in the world was that
Dawn: I don't know Akiza
Garrett: Is everybody okay
Dale: Yeah I think so
?:(laughs evilly from outside)
Ash: We've got company
Yusei: Martha stay back
Garrett: Who are you
?: Sorry to interrupt your dinner my name is Roman and I bear the mark of the spider
Yusei: The mark of the spider
Garrett: Just like from the vision
Dale: What do you want Roman?
Roman: I heard we had four signers visiting I thought I come and welcome you
Dawn: Oh you're so kind
Roman: Of course we dark signers only have one way of saying hello
Dale: Alright fine then I'll take you on
Garrett: No Dale you can't duel here
Yusei: If he summons an earthbound immortal then everybody here will be swallowed up
Dale: Man you're right
Garrett: Yusei you lead him away I'll get everybody out of here
Yusei: Okay, alright Roman let's duel but not here
Roman: Then lead the way
Akiza: Yusei I'm going with you
Yusei: Alright then let's go
they leave with Ash running after them
Toka: Alright guys that guy out there is a bad guy and we need to help Yusei beat him up
two kids: Yeah
they run out after Yusei and Akiza
the duel area
Roman: Alright Yusei you ready to duel
Yusei: Ready when you are
Roman/Yusei: Let's duel
fire erupts and takes the form of a spider and the signer marks glow
Akiza: Here we go
Martha's place
Garrett:(looking at his mark) The duel has started
Dale: Good luck Yusei
Dawn: We're right behind you
the duel
Yusei: Alright Roman I'm going first(draws a card) and I summon Shield Wing in def mode(2/0/900) you're up
Roman:(draws a card) then I summon the dark tuner Spider Cocoon(5/0/0) and I can because you control a monster and I don't next I summon Dark Spider(1/100/100) and thanks to Dark Spider's ability I can give my cocoon 2 more levels(7/0/0) now I dark synchro summon my Underground Arachnid(6-/2400/1200) now I can take your Shield Wing and equip it to my monster
Yusei: No
Roman: Now I attack you directly
Yusei: Ahhhhh(LP1600)
Akiza: Yusei no
Roman: I now activate the Spider Web field spell it's your turn as I end with this face down card
Yusei: It's my turn(draws a card) and I summon out Road Synchron(4/1600/1200) and now I activate the spell card One for One so by discarding Quillbolt Hedgehog I can special summon Tuningware(1/100/100) now because I have a tuner monster Quillbolt Hedgehog comes back to the field(2/800/800) and last when I use Tuningware to synchro summon he becomes level 2. So with that said and done I now synchro summon Road Warrior(8/3000/1500) now attack
Roman: Argh(LP3400) when Underground Arachnid is attacked I can destroy the captured monster instead and now thanks to the field spell your monster is switched into def mode
Yusei: Well then in that case i use my monster's ability to summon out to the field Turbo Booster(1/0/0) now i sacrifice Turbo Booster to destroy Underground Arachnid
Roman: Urgh so you destroyed my monster
Akiza: Yeah way to go Yusei that's how us signers like to do things
Roman: I activate the trap card Alter to the Bound Deity now for every monster that's in def mode during my standby phase O get one alter to light when all four are lit I'm allowed to summon my earthbound immortal directly to the field
Yusei: Well that's not good I end my turn
the two kids show up
kids: Go Yusei you can beat this guy
Akiza: Oh no Yusei the kids are here
Yusei: WHAT!
Ash: Get out of here!
Roman: It's too late for them now they're trapped within the flames
Yusei: Man this is not good
Roman: It's my turn now(draws a card) witch means the first alter is now lit(alters 1) now I summon Grand Spider in def mode(4/0/1500) and I end with a face down card
Yusei: Then I go(draws a card)
Martha's house
Garrett:(sees a figure run across the window) What Dale I'm heading out okay
Dale: Why?
Garrett: I just saw James outside and I have to settle the score with him
Dale: Alright just be careful
Garrett: Same for you and the kids
he steps outside
Dawn: Garrett are you leaving
Garrett: Yeah I'm going to meet an old enemy
Dawn: You mean James
Garrett: Yes
Dawn: Can I come
Garrett: Of course hop on(Dawn gets on behind him) ready
Dawn:(wraps arms around Garrett) Yeah
they ride off
in an alleyway
Garrett:(gets off his runner along with Dawn) Alright James come out I know you're here
James: I didn't think you'd find me so fast
Garrett: Whatever let's just finish what we started
James: Be patient now Garrett
an explosion goes off
Dawn: Ahhhhh
Garrett: Dawn!...Dawn no you fiend where did you take her
James: I assure you she is fine but you might want to make sure Yusei doesn't lose(he vanishes)
Garrett: Noooo how could I let them take her. No matter what I'll get her back but first I have to save Yusei
he rides off
back at Martha's place
Dale: Come on guys be okay you just gotta be okay
Martha: Dale
Dale: What's wrong Martha
Martha: Toka and two of the other kids are missing
Dale: What! Let's go quickly and get them
Martha: Alright
Trudge: I'm coming too
Dale:(nods)
they all run toward the duel except for Dale who takes his duel runner
at the duel area
Akiza: Yusei you have to stop Roman from summoning his immortal
Yusei: I know I use Road Warrior's ability to summon out Speed Warrior(2/900/400)
Roman: I use Grand Spider's ability to put your new warrior into def mode
Yusei: Well in that case i think I'll activate the spell card Advance Draw by sacrificing Road Warrior I can draw 2 cards now I sacrifice Speed Warrior to summon Turret Warrior(5/1200/2000) now for his ability(5/2100/2400) now take out that Grand Spider
Roman: Don't forget thanks to my field spell your monster now switches into def mode
Yusei: I end my turn with a face down card
back with Garrett
Garrett: Come on just a lit bit farther...whoa(stops) Martha?
Martha: Garrett, Toka and two other kids are missing
Trudge: Actually I found Toka
Martha: Where?
Trudge: He's up there on top of that building
Martha: Alright let's get up there
Trudge: Alright let's go
Garrett: I'll go look for the other 2 kids then
Garrett rides off
back with the duel
Roman: It's my turn now so that means I get another alter to light(alter 2)(draws a card) and I activate my trap card Offering to the Bound Deity now by halving my LPs(LP1700) 2 more torches are suddenly lit
Yusei: No
Akiza: That's all four
Roman: Now I can summon forth earthbound immortal Uru(10/3000/3000)
Akiza: Oh no we're too late
Yusei: It will take a miracle to save them now
Dale: Did somebody say miracle
Dale rides his runner through the fire and quickly jumps off his runner and puts a bubble around the kids saving them from being absorbed
Yusei/Akiza: Dale!
Dale: Alright Yusei the kids are safe now win this duel
Martha:(shouts from the top of a building) Yusei Toka is safe you have the green light to finish this guys off so don't hold back
Yusei: You bet I won't hold back
Akiza: Yeah Yusei go for it
Garrett: Yusei
he rides into the fire and stops right next to Yusei
Akiza/Yusei/Dale: Garrett!
Garrett: We've got a big problem
Akiza: What is it
Garrett: The dark signers kidnapped Dawn
Dale: WHAT! How
Ash: It seems this duel was just a distraction. We'll come up with a plan to get her back later
Roman: You guys really don't know the truth do you
Yusei: What do you mean Roman?
Roman: I mean your own dad helped to free the shadow army
Yusei: No he'd never do that
Roman: But your father did help to design the first ener-d reactor
Garrett: It's true Yusei and my father helped him
Roman: Well Garrett I'm glad you could join us
Garrett: Roman you'll pay for this
Roman: I doubt that without your fathers none of this would even be possible
Yusei: No my dad was good all he wanted to do was help
Roman: Yeah help his bank maybe. He didn't care about what would have happened he wanted to turn the thing on and see how fast it would make him a millionaire and I should know after all I was there with him
Garrett: But how
Roman: You guys are so dense those two were my bosses I worked with them along with my brother Rex Goodwin. It all started when you 2 were just babies me and my brother worked with your fathers on the original ener-d reactor. There were fears that if it should spin in reverse it would spew huge amounts of negative energy which is exactly what I wanted. your guys fathers were to obsessed with success to see, which allowed me to sabotage the entire project and then boom there went your father's life work
Yusei: But that means
Garrett: It was you...you caused all of this
Roman: Who else(laughs evilly)
Garrett: That means the explosion was no accident did Goodwin help you Roman
Yusei: Exactly was all of this your brother's idea
Roman: I wish we could stand around and chat all day but the netherworld is waiting earthbound immortal attack him directly
Yusei: I activate Iron Resolve so by halving my LPs(LP800) I can negate your attack
Roman: While I end my turn with this face down card remember that the battle damage in this duel is real
they hear an explosion and then the building that Martha is on begins to collapse Trudge tries to save her but she falls anyways and gets absorbed by the earthbound immortal
Akiza: Oh no
Ash: Damn you!
Dale: Martha
Yusei: Martha!
Garrett: NOOOOOOOO!
Yusei: That's it Roman you're finished(draws a card) I summon Junk Synchron(3/1300/500) I synchro summon Stardust Dragon(8/2500/2000) now attack Roman directly
Roman: I activate my trap card Spider Egg now your attack is negated and I get 3 egg tokens(1/0/0)
Yusei: I end with a face down card it's your move now
Roman: I think this duel's gone on long enough(he disappears)
the fire dies down and the marks stop glowing
Yusei: What
Garrett: The duel's not even over
Dale: I guess it is look
Akiza: He's gone
Ash: Where are you Roman?!
Garrett: Up there(points)
Akiza/Dale:(gasps)
Yusei: Roman you coward why'd you stop the duel
Roman: Because I saw what I came here for
Yusei: What does that mean
Kalin: It means you should be patient and wait Yusei
Garrett: That voice
Ash: Kalin, you and I still have a score to settle
Kalin:(walks up) Well well well if it isn't the signers
Yusei: Kalin give us back Martha
Kalin: The only way to save her is to duel me tomorrow
James: The same goes for you Garrett(he walks out)
Dale: James
James: That's right
Garrett: Give us back Dawn now
James: I'll give her back if you can beat me tomorrow
Garrett: If you touch even 1 hair on her head your deck won't be the only thing in pain
James: Whatever
Misty: Let's not forget miss Akiza(she walks in to)
Akiza: Misty
Misty: You will pay for hurting my brother
Akiza: But I didn't
Roman: Let us meet tomorrow at the four points of destiny
Devack:(appears) but first I'm Devack and I bear the mark of the monkey and I'm challenging you to a duel tomorrow Mr. Williams
Dale: Alright fine
Devack: Farewell for now
the dark signers disappear
Dale: Okay whats our next move guys
Yusei: We take the kids back to Martha's
Garrett: And then we develop a plan in the morning
Akiza: Okay
Ash: Sounds good
Dale:(nods)
they all head back to Martha's place
Toka and the rest of the kids:(crying) we're sorry Yusei we just wanted to help
Yusei: It's okay guys just never do that again
Toka:(snivels) Okay Yusei we promise is Martha going to be okay
Garrett: I wouldn't worry about Martha you guys
Dale: Yeah she'll be a-ok
Yusei: Count on it
Akiza: Alright you kids off to bed now
kids: Good night everyone
they go to bed
Trudge: do you really think Martha will be okay Garrett
Garrett: I honestly don't know
Trudge:(grabs Garrett by the collar) listen you little punk why'd you go and lie to those kids like that
Ash: THAT'S ENOUGH TRUDGE!
Shocked, he let go of Garrett's collar
Ash: This is getting us nowhere. Based on what we've seen so far with the Dark Signers, I figure the people sacrificed to summon a Earthbound Immortal will return if it's defeated. That's not our only concern though. We also need to get Dawn back as well. 
Trudge: Well that's good to know. 
Dale: I agree.
Akiza: Me too.
Mina: So do I.
Ash: We'll come up with a plan in the morning. For now let's get some sleep.
Everybody: Alright good night everybody
