And so the Vampiric Dragon destroyed the dutiful Pyramid Turtle, sending another piece of the family legacy of the Pyramid Turtles to the Graveyard. There was surely an expression underneath the helmet of The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell. But that expression was just between him and the Devil. From the dust left behind from Pyramid Turtle emerged the purple abomination Plaguespreader Zombie in Defense Mode.

Wordlessly The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell caught Speed Spell - Contract With the Abyss. "Oh. You will regret this Ryunosuke." Now Fyodor's turn approached. He drew his next card and looked at it for a small moment.

A card was placed down into his Spell and Trap Zone. He pointed at Plaguespreader Zombie and then to Pyramid Turtle. "Go forth and ooze all over Pyramid Turtle for the Synchro Summon!" Plaguespreader Zombie did just that and attached himself onto Pyramid Turtle. Emerging from the bubbling mutation of purple ooze emerged the Revived King Ha Des.

"Haaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiil to the king, hail to the one Revived King Ha Des.
Kneel to the crown, staaaaaand in the sun
Hail to the king! Revived King Ha Des go forth and crush Dragulus!" remarked the Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell as Revived King Ha Des flew towards Dragulus preparing to crush him in a merciless bear hug.

Sorry for the double post, but mentions don't work with edited posts.

Shouldn't Ryunosuke be reacting to Tekkan's attempt to karate chop him? I could edit my post if you'd like.

@GarlandDaHero

Ah remember, The Phantom Duelist ejected from the Duel Runner he was sharing with Tekkan in favor of the 'Coffin Cruiser' (his TRUE Runner) that he activated to come to him. He jumped to it leaving Tekkan the fresh out of control bike due to the freshly available duel disk slot.

Werewolves are freaky aren't they.

Mongrel was just a tad engrossed with its gross meal from the garbage can. As Mongrel flew with her head still in the garbage can there were a flurry of thoughts occurring as the werewolf began to set new priorities as it was not able to scavenge in peace. Landing down and crushing one of the wooden benches, splattering several food dishes at nearby civilians still fleeing from the scene, Mongrel began growling loudly.

As she began frantically shaking her head, it appeared that the garbage can refused to come off. Again Mongrel repeated the motions, and this time the garbage can came flying off and spiraled in a random direction. The beast's pupils were dilated as she snarled out, drool dripping from her fangs assessing the scene. There were even more new prey besides those harpies constructed of food; but these were not Mongrel's target. For none of these prey animals made a deliberate attempt to threaten the beast or its food source.

The creature growled as she saw the creature that screamed earlier; she had found the ring rat which dared to challenge this apex predator. Licking at its chops, Mongrel bolted at Molly and lunged at her with fangs bared to chomp down on Molly's posterior.

"For now yes." mused The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell as he glanced back at Ryunosuke, "But you remember what unfurled last time I'm sure." As soon as a new engine began roaring out, The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell turned the helmet to glance towards the source of the sound. Surely there was an expression underneath the helmet as The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell saw that esteemed sheen, the fanciful wood, those smooth surfaces and the well done carvings. But that expression was just between him and the Devil.

This coffin was revealed as the true Duel Runner of the Phantom Duelist of Saotome. Fyodor glanced back at Ryunosuke, "WHAT!? So you mean that one was not the r- Hmph. So be it." The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell watched as Crimson Knight Bram's effect kicked in and as the Phantom Duelist of Saotome activated that Rank-Up spell. Once again did The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell see Dragulus the Vampiric Dragon. Shortly after Summoned Skull used its vicious lightning to destroy one of his Pyramid Turtles.

"Do not worry Pyramid Turtle; you shall avenge it all. Now go and bring me forth some pieces so I can get rid of this dragon AGAIN!" From the mist of Pyramid Turtle emerged...

The last of Pyramid Turtles in Defense Mode. "I know what you're thinking, 'again with Pyramid Turtle'. Buuuuuuuuut why mess with the formula of success. NOW THE PYRAMID TURTLE LINEAGE HAS TRULY BEEN ASSEMBLED! AND THEY SPELL OUT YOUR DOOM! WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE PLANNED PHANTOM DUELIST!?"

PRESENT TIME

The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell did not care at all when "house points" were brought up. After all he had achieved what he wanted and more in this Battle Royale. During the events of this activity, an Unholy Sanctuary was forged, vehicles were gathered, His Infernal Message had reached the masses and perhaps also as importantly, The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell was able to finally get a pack of cigarettes. Fortunately despite the explosion, the cigarettes managed to stay intact.

He still had much work to do when he returned back to the Unholy Sanctuary, such as dealing with his 'special guest' the Mechanic and utilizing all the scrap recovered from the wreckage of Officerbot and his Duel Runner.

But for now Konstantinovich was in the cafeteria, sitting at the long bench table, armed with a chiseled tip marker. Uncapping the marker a message was quickly scrawled onto the table.

'MYSTERIES RATTLING YOU? CASE DEEMED 'TOO INSANE'? THE DAMNED DETECTIVE WILL TAKE IT ON. SOLICIT INSIDE STARDUST.'

The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of Hell took a moment to analyze what he had written. It would suffice for bringing in potential customers to indulge Fyodor in the hobby of detective work. Getting up from the bench the Damned Detective glanced towards the lunch line, before going up to various walls and objects and inscribing his message upon them.

All the while, his mind wandered back to the Phantom Duelist of Saotome...

GOTTA GET BACK, BACK, BACK TO THE PAST BECAUSE THE DUEL STILL ROLLIN'

The next turn came as The Phantom Duelist of Saotome was annoyed at the supreme might of the Pyramid Turtle. It was only natural after all. Fyodor paid little attention to that Trap or Magic Card Ryunosuke placed onto the field; after all he had Speed Spell: Tribute to the Doomed and Pyramid Turtle, alongside the boost in life points given to him by the Phantom. Everything was looking up as his Duel Runner shot a new card at him.

Looking behind their shoulder The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell glanced towards Tekkan. He shook his head as he began to speak."Oh Neophyte! I have begun to teach you the ways of the Infernal One and how best to serve Him; but there is still much I must show you, such as the Code of the Road. And you have seem to not see the graveyard for the tombstones; take note of your position. You are RIDING WITH MY OPPONENT. Have you forgotten your glorious act in the service of serving The Lord of the Flies!? You are within striking distance you know. NOW THEN!"

The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell glanced at the card he drew. From his hand he activated Speed Spell: Tribute to the Doomed and discarded the very card he just drew. Two large coffins emerged out of thin air. The rightmost coffin opened up as there was brief glimmer of the Zombified Manhorse Mezuki being wrapped as a Mummy. Mezuki was shoved into the casket as it slammed shut and exploded. The leftmost coffin opened up as Konstantinovich pointed at Crimson Knight Bram. A flood of mummy wrappings shot out and began to restrain Crimson Knight Bram by all of his limbs. The wrappings spun around Bram to fully encase him before forcefully pulling him into the coffin. As soon as Bram was secure the coffin then exploded as Bram was destroyed by the effect of Speed Spell - Tribute to the Doomed.

"Well now that I settled all of that, I will now activate Mezuki's effect and banish him from the Graveyard so I may bring forth a Zombie from my Graveyard." spoke The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell noted as Mezuki, still partially decorated as a mummy, reappeared only to fade into the ether. The mummy wrappings fell to the ground and began to hiss and create a large smoke cloud.

Arising from the smoke as the target of Mezuki's ability was...

...

Could it be!? Was it possible that The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell would that particular monster!? It was! Emerging from the smoke with its head barely poking out of its pyramid shell in Defense Mode was Pyramid Turtle, the one that the newer Pyramid Turtle swore to avenge! The two of them both, well not boldly, but they kept their ground in defense mode.

The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell began cackling as he threw his right arm in the air. "NOW THAT IS RACING SPIRIT! You thought you might've bested Pyramid Turtle, you thought he would COWER at the situation he was stuck in. But you shall realize the POWER OF THE PYRAMIDS POSSESSED BY THESE FINE DAMNED SOULS! GWAHAHAHAHAHA!"

With that he pointed at The Phantom Duelist of Saotome to signal that his turn was over.

Kimberly Hawkins only paid a slight and mild bit of attention to, well a variety of events that were going on. She idly stared at the mayor as the situation was explained to the group gathered for the situation. Sure there was some sort of mayhem occurring at a 'barbeque bash'; but did it have anything to do with Kimberly Hawkins!? No! It did not. The girl sighed as she thought of the hunks that would've been presented if the place attacked was a beach-side bonfire.

Well, whatever, there was at least one thing that actively concerned the Cheerleading Mercenary and that was what her code-name was going to be. With a bounce in her step she walked over to the desk. As she leaned in, her index finger was hovering over the papers searching for her name. Aha! The cheerleader spotted her name and as soon as she saw the code-name her heart dropped. Mouthing out the words, a cold sweat poured over her face as she tried to hide a grimace.

"R-right. Help. Yeah. Heroes. Woo... she said jumping up and kicking back her feet. As she landed back on the ground she rose her right hand with a freshly plucked pom-pom; before immediately scuttling out of the office.

As soon as she was out of the office Kimberly's eyebrows furrowed as she gritted her teeth. "M-mongrel!? ME!? MONGREL!?" she howled out as she could feel the metamorphosis occurring. "Euuuuugh! BARF ME OUT! WHAT DO THEY THINK I AM, A BIMBETTE WHO'LL TAKE IT LAYING DOWN!?" growled out Kimberly Hawkins as her voice grew deeper and her teeth began to sharpen.

Rocking back and forth, Kimberly glanced down at her hands as she saw them grow in muscles and the claws began to form. "GWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" snarled out as she dropped her purse and pom-poms as she held her right hand out in front of her to hide the obvious snout that manifested.

"AAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" howled out the beast as she finished her metamorphosis, standing erect and holding out her front limbs out wide. The creature briefly looked down at the wrecked clothing before getting down on all fours. As the wolf creature attempted to wag its tail; it soon realized that the cheerleader shorts were still attached.

This would not do; so the werewolf creature known to some as Mongrel began shaking its fur wildly and scratching itself with its back limbs. The force was enough to remove the unnecessary garment and allowed the tail to be wagged. Lifting its head up Mongrel sniffed the air around it to determine a source of delicious food. With the scent trail found, Mongrel began lunging towards the park.

As it arrived on the scene, Mongrel continued sniffing around slowly stalking the area. She licked her chops and bared out her fangs. There was a treasure trove of food to eat and many things to hunt. The werewolf realized what the most sensible course of action was and ignored the harpy prey for now in favor of Potluck's treasure trove of food that was dumped in a nearby garbage can.

Mongrel swatted the garbage can down with her right paw, and shortly after shoved her head there to eat at the garbage.

@GarlandDaHero

See hype would be like when say like ten dudes all show up to battle against The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell and then he and Tekkan each take on five thugs.

@KOgaming

My main question for this before answering would be whether or not the Turbo Duel I'm in would also get the flashback deal and would I also get to use it for establishing something The Ghoulish Rider - Traveler of the Highway of Hell would do before it moved onto the next day, like tormenting his kidnapped Mechanic or something.

Well PN61A knew when it was time to cut a performance quick. With a slow and steady series of exaggerated goosesteps she headed toward Roxy and plucked the card she procured from her. The Amazing and Oh-so-Glorious Gretchen Primrose returned it back into her deck and performed an elaborate shuffle. Once the cards were shuffled again, she returned them back into her pouch.

The robot then spun around and focused her attention on the magician who referred to himself by his stage name. She began to clank her robotic hands together, "Woo. Let us have a round of applause for the individual who did not quite act as an assistant to the performance, but notified us that he is the individual starting this exam."

And with a few more claps, the robot finished and held her staff aloft. Thrusting the staff in the directions of the ruins PN61A spoke again, "I implore you all to remember the beginning of my introduction. Be glad that I will succeed in this regardless of whether or not you all succeed here."
