In Domino Park sat an old man on the bench. Surprisingly fit for an old man, one would guess he was in his sixties. However, he had just turned eighty four a few days ago. At the same time, he also found out that he had six months to live. At this park, he is enjoying his last moments of serene peace. A life chronicled by violence must end violently to him.
There was no damn way he was going out peacefully. Not by some goddamn disease, not by some freaking injection. He had heard about Shadow Duelists, and was ready to fight them in his attempt to end it through some form of combat. He knew that if he won, the fight would continue. His aim in reality was to lose, but he would not throw away victory. He would fight for his right to die, and if this lot didn't do him in, than how else would he die?
Taking one final swig from a steel flask, he had gotten up from the bench. He stuffs his hands in his coat pockets and heads through the park. To take his last relaxing walk, before an intense war that he would start with charmers of supernatural forces. Was this war really worth it? Was this selfish intent to die violently a good reason to start war? Well it was personal, but no worse than a war between nations, a war for profit, a war for dominance.

Arcueid was doing her usual thing. Just walking through the park~ Practically skipping, really. Interesting things had happened in the past few days and Arcueid didn't know what to think of it all, but she was doing her best to enjoy herself in this situation, though possibly demented. It brought a twisted smile to her face, how things unraveled. Not to mention how things would go on the course of the world. And she would cause mischief and chaos.
That was when she saw an old man. He looked like he had some fight in him! And looked like he was ready to show it as well. She'd licked her lips as she'd approached the old man, tempted to not bite him. She never liked wrinkly skin. It was too weird. Thus, she'd settle with talking to him.
"Hello there~! What are you doing out here alone~?"

Johnson, noticing the young woman skipping around with the grin upon her face looked at her. When she had approached him, asking what he was doing, he replied "Well, I'd tell you but I'm going to ask you something." He sighed, hoping she'd provide him with answers to his hunt. "Do you know anything about the Shadow Realm, or Shadow Charms?" he asked calmly and fearlessly.

"The Shadow Realm and Charms~? Well, I know quite a bit~! After all, I am a follower of such occult things~ What would you like to know~?"
Of course, since she'd just met him, she'd put up a facade for a second. However, every bone in her body called for a duel. This old man seemed to want to die, after all. He was after the Shadow Duelists~! And, nigh and behold, there was one right next to him and conversing~! The dagger hidden under her dress gave a soft glow, though invisible to the naked eye. So much was she tempted to end this poor man's life now, as the Shadow Charm in the form of her dagger gave off dark pulses for her to answer her calling as a Shadow Duelist.

Johnson, with a look of slight happiness beckoned Arcueid, "Come, walk with me" he said stoically. "I am looking for the Shadow Duelists." he said, and his next words came with a sigh "what I am about to state may deem me a selfish old fool, but a life like mine, a life of blood and violence should end consistently." Continuing his walk, he was carrying a messenger bag with his Steampunk Duel Disk, his deck, his clothes and a M1911 Semi-Automatic Pistol he had in the war just in case. "I have six months until some damned disease kills me, and I wish for a violent end as opposed to being shoveled in a goddamn old home. I wish to do battle with these Shadow Duelists. Where could I find them?" he had asked with a hopeful tone.

She'd listened to his story and gave a small laugh, humoring the man. Indeed, this would be a fun game of "Cat and Mouse"~! She'd merely stopped in her tracks as she'd walked with him and waited for him to get far enough. From there, a Duel Disk materialized on her arm. Ah, The Temptress was a beautiful sight. She'd gave the oldie a toothy grin and replied teasingly. "Well, old man~ You've found one~ Wanna go down fighting, eh~?"

"Much sooner than I expected" he said, pulling the Steampunk Duel Disk out of his bag, putting it on his arm and then sliding his deck into its component, "but the sooner the better." He shuffled the deck using a deck shuffler her installed into the compartment. Drawing his hand of five cards, he said "You start, my lady"

"Hmph~! Alright then~! Bring it on, fossil~!"
Arcueid quickly made her first 6 draws and licked her lips in contemplation this would certainly be an interesting duel. She'd quickly set 3 cards as soon as she'd drawn them and licked the canine's within her mouth, the pearly whites glistening in the light as her crimson hues glowed faintly, displaying whatever darkness she'd had within her. She'd waved passively towards the old man.
"With that, I'll end my turn~ Make your move~"

"Draw!" he shouted, drawing his opening play. "I play Heavy Storm!" the backfields Book of Moon and Torrential Tribute were destroyed. "I activate Terraforming, searching out Secret Village of the Spellcasters!" The village was brought to his hand. "I summon Gemini Elf and activate Secret Village!" The beautiful twin elves took the field, and so do the village. "Battle! Gemini Elf! Strike her facedown!" the two had blasted it, revealing Pyramid Turtle. Predictably, it brought out Ryu Kokki. "I set one backfield and end!"

Arcueid had drawn her next card, not happy with that she was seeing. She'd growled lightly and pointed angrily at the Gemini Elf. Ryu Kokki, understanding the command of its master, lunged itself at the two sexy sisters, intending to finish them in a single blow. But, as if a spell was cast, Ryu Kokki was blown away. Stopped by Mirror Force. This had caused the semi-vampiric female to clench her fist, irritated. She'd decided to finish her turn with two set cards and quietly passed her turn to the old fossil.

"Draw!" he shouted, clearly in a mood of combat. "Mystical Space Typhoon on your facedown!" he exclaimed, it being a Book of Moon. "I normal summon Breaker! Breaking your facedown!" which turned out to be the Holy Barrier. Funny, such an unholy being running Mirror Force. "Battle! Gemini Elf, Breaker! Direct Attack!" the two cards dealt 3500 damage in one attack. "I end."

Arcueid was caught off guard by the sudden assault and blocked out whatever of the attacks she could with her arms. Clothes were ripped apart and a few bloody cuts appeared on her. She'd smiled wickedly, seeming to find some enjoyment in all of this. As a result, she'd drawn her next card, creepily happy, yet her eyes showing her fury and rage. She'd just as soon played the card and continued to smile wickedly.
"Let's go, my dear Zombie Mammoth~! Ram that stupid little Breaker~!"
The decayed pachyderm charged at the weakened Breaker and she'd lowered his LP by whatever amount. She'd soon ended her turn, not knowing what was to happen next and rather enjoying it.

Taking the assault, it was minor to him. He had received a cut on his cheek. "Draw!" he shouted, grinning at his next card. "I summon Magical Exemplar! Next, I activate Foolish Burial, dumping Night's End Sorcerer. This gives it 2 spell counters!" The mage gained two counters. "Effect of Exemplar! I remove two Spell Counters to summon Night's End Sorcerer!" The scythe wielding magician came to the field. "Effect of Night's End Sorcerer, when Special Summoned, I can remove from play two cards in your grave! Ryu Kokki! Pyramid Turtle!" The scythe evicted the monsters from the grave, causing the mammoth to flail out of control, dying and taking 1900 LP from his opponent.
"I tune Night's End Sorcerer to Magical Exemplar to Synchro Summon Gaia Knight, The Force of The Earth!" the knight had come onto the field, wielding its lances proudly. "Battle! Gaia Knight, Destructive Impact!" the Knight then took her last Life points.

Arcueid noted the appearance of Gaia Knight and promptly side-stepped the lance that was headed at her, the shockwave enough to blow off the rest of her clothes while leaving Arcueid relatively unscathed. The Life Point counter went down to 0 though, leaving her to sigh. The duel ended before she'd even gotten a hearty meal. She'd promptly crossed her arms over her prominent chest and blinked at the man, disappointed. Her shadow charm had disappeared, and, therefore, her Shadow Duelist status. She'd even felt the power dispose of itself as well. Which is why she'd hated the cost of losing as a Shadow Duelist so much.
"Well, old man, not only did you fail to feed my need to duel, you've also made me lose my powers. Way to go. My consolation prize? I get to walk around naked for awhile. Well, I should get going now. You've achieved your goal."
Arcueid promptly walked away, her tush swaying lightly as she'd walked, clearly frustrated. She knew not what to do anymore, so maybe she'd just wander around like she usually did. But first, some clothes. Otherwise, people wouldn't be too kind about seeing her. Or, would they?

Old man Conrad sighed, his first battle was a victory. This was not going to be a quick war at all. Just like in World War II, Germany and America clashed, with America coming on top. "I failed this time, but I will not fail any longer!" he exclaimed, rubbing the bloody cut on his cheek bone. He put his deck and duel disk back in his messenger bag. He had set off for the Domino Museum, searching for answers on Shadow Duelists, and where he could find them.
And the fact that Arcueid was naked didn't phase him. He had lost his will to sexuality that fateful day. His wife, daughter, and Daichi got shot by those damned savages. Since then, he hasn't bothered with sexuality. Even after the fools put themselves in the position to be slain, he still hadn't bothered.
