Korbin and Alice Okiyama were sitting side by side at the long table, finally together again. They were making small talk after a year apart, Alice taking the lead in the conversation and Korbin more or less listening, contributing with a comment every now and then. Both were eating light breakfasts, with small portions of bacon, eggs, and pancakes to fill just a little of their plate. Michael, Lightsworn Lord was standing behind Alice, peering around the table at the monsters behind each duelist. Alice was a little uneasy about all of the monster holograms, as she had never seen anything like it. "How do you think The Khan managed to do that?" She asked Korbin. She didn't wait to answer and continued to tell him about school and things.
Korbin meanwhile was looking around the table, sizing up his opponents like Michael was. Cyber Twin Dragon had it's body wrapped around Korbin, with it's head split and hovering above his shoulders. He was scanning the table too. Alright, Korbin thought. I'm done eating. We came here to duel, didn't we? What are we doing sitting around? The left head of Cyber Twin Dragon made a quiet hissing sound, and Korbin looked to where it's head was pointed. A duelist had been looking at him, one that Korbin knew of: Press Dalton, known as the Cyborg Duelist. Korbin's eyes met his, and his hand started to finger the controls of the Duel Disk attached firmly to his arm. Along with himself and perhaps the Khan, Press was one of the best duelists here. He took a glance around the table before standing up. "Alice, you're a polite person. Would it be good table manners to play card games while eating?" Cyber Twin Dragon unwrapped itself from Korbin's body and stretched to it's full length to face Press's hologram monster from across the table, Superdimensional Robot Galaxy Destroyer. "Well, if you're eating it's better to..." Alice tried to answer, looking over to Press and sighed. "Korbin, you're going to be careless and lose this tournament the first day. Why don't you relax and try to enjoy yourself?" Korbin shook his head and activated his Duel Disk. "I came to duel," he said curtly to his sister. "Press, are you just going to stare, or do you want to give these people a show?" He projected his voice across the table.
