[DUEL FESTIVAL - DAY 7]

[duelacademynpcs]

*It's the seventh day of the Festival, in the morning.

And to a lot of people's surprise, it seems like everything's getting packed up. Most of the booths and stands are closed down and getting put away, but it looks like the day's main event is still planned to commence. On the schedules everyone can access, there is only one event for the arena: "Wonder Quartet".

Up until this point, everyone assumed this to be basically a regular tournament to top off the event while everyone enjoyed their final day, but it seems like there's something more, with how hurried the organizers are.

Notably though, around the areas where screens are set up to show dueling video, online streams, and at the arena, there's two countdowns present-- one being for in a few minutes to something simply noted as "Announcement", and the other being for the oft-rumored "Wonder Quartet", a half-hour after that, starting at noon.

Best thing to do right now is to head for the arena, or watch one of the screens present or on your computer/phone/internet device of your choice.*

I'll survive.

Thank you, but I need to inform Mr. Akaba of what happened. *he pulls out his phone to dial it*

Do you know where he is at this moment?

*pausing mid-dial*

... I know where the base of operations is situated, but I don't know if he's there.

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

It's a place to start.

Call him if you need to, but I'll bring you to that place. I need to speak to him directly.

And before you ask, no, this is not negotiable.

He finishes dialing for Reiji's number.*

::You hear the phone pick up.::

Yes, Mr. Yamada?

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

[thestudyof]

We have problems, sir.

The attack's started.

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

[ruleroftheend]

I can tell.

I'm surprised you and the woman managed to hold them off as well as you did.

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

[thestudyof]

So you were watching? *of course he was-- but he's more surprised that Reiji watched his situation directly*

Then I guess it won't come as a surprise that she wants to speak to you.

::A moment's silence.::

Permission granted. A combination Kaiba Corp SWAT team and our own SWAT forces are headed your way. Make sure to not draw further attention to yourselves.

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

[thestudyof]

Understood, sir. *he hangs up after that.*

... He'll allow you speaking to him. People are coming to get us in the meantime, but we need to stay inconspicuous.

Re: [Industrial District - Volcano Zone]

[tachyonparticle]

*inconspicuous? who said she's being that. but whatever. She makes the axe vanish.*

Long as he'll listen.
