Akira went to a break room that LDS has, humming as he looks through his deck, just chilling really when Ancient Gear Golem appears, on guard for some reason as Akira Asks "what's wrong Ancient? You seem.... Tense." Ancient doesn't answer at first, but does eventually say "someone else is here, not a person, but a duel monster spirit, and I don't like the fact that they are stalking you." The moment he says that, a deep yet elegant voice says "now, now Ancient Gear Golem, no need to be hostile" and at the end of that sentence, a flash of light blinds Akira for a moment.
After a moment the light dies down and he opens his eyes.... And his jaw drops, as standing in all his glory, one of his favorite Synchro monsters of all time "Stardust Dragon?" At the mention of his name, Stardust chuckles and nods, while Ancient bows in apology "my Apologies Lord Stardust Dragon, but I was just being cautious do to Akira here already kinda being harmed previously." Stardust waved him off saying "it's fine Ancient Gear Golem, you were protecting your chosen duelist." Akira stayed silent that entire time but asks "why are you here? I highly doubt one of the aces of Yusei Fudo would be here just to chat" Stardust chuckles at that.
"See, as you know, practically all legendary duelists are gone.... Except Seto Kaiba and two people of team 5Ds, that was my doing on Seto Kaiba's part, he built and revolutionized the entirety of the duelist world.... And we need his help in this endeavor, but I know you can see through me, can't you?" As stardust talked, Akira could see a second motivation, that much is true "I do, why else are you here? I doubt you'd just casually talk about this, thanks for clearing it up as to why Seto was alive." Stardust nods as he summons a deck and says "I want you to use me, however you see fit, it's been so long since I've been played, I want to feel alive again, to be played in a duel again.... To have a worthy duel again, and maybe even jumpstart something later." Unknown looked slightly confused but is ungodly excited and nods very fast "YES, YES, YES I WOULD BE HONORED TO DUEL BY YOUR SIDE, OH MY GOD, IS JUNK WARRIOR THERE AS WELL!?"
Ancient looks surprised at his excitement but is even more surprised at how excitedly he asked about Junk Warrior since many consider Stardust Dragon his only ace, Stardust is also surprised but nods "indeed he is we grew a bond while Dueling by Yusei's side so it felt wrong not too." Akira grabs the deck and starts looking through it, giggling excitedly, while Stardust and Ancient look at each other, before smiling and disappearing.
(WASSUP BITCHES, now you might be wondering why I made this? I wanted to get a chapter out, that's it, and as a btw this was before the duels started officially, as a sneak peak would never hurt to the synchro deck, and the two monsters mentioned should be the hint you need for the deck, but other than that, SEEYA NEXT TIME)
