The Duel between Jaden and Sorano begins, and Sorano mentally thinks that he's studied Jaden's strategy and believes he has a counter that can defeat him. Sorano is playing a [[Horus Lockdown]] Deck, and Summoned "[[Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8]]" by the end of his first turn. This card can negate the activation of [[Spell Card]]s, so Sorano believes that will prove to be the key victory, since much of Jaden's strategy revolves around "[[Polymerization]]". [[Axel Brodie|Axel]] is sitting a van in Domino City, several computer monitors around him detailing the residents of Domino. One by one, the names of the residents begin to vanish. He calls [[KaibaCorp]], but there is no answer, and it shows a list of employees on clipboard, which vanish one by vanish, leaving only [[Seto Kaiba]]'s name behind. The city appears completely empty save for Axel himself.
At the Duel, Jaden plays "[[E - Emergency Call]]", which is negated by "[[Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8|Horus]]", but Jaden reveals he knew that would happen, and uses the opportunity to [[Removed from playBanish|remove]] "[[E - Emergency Call]]" from play to [[Special Summon]] "[[Spell Striker]]". Sorano then seals the effect of [[Trap Card]]s with "[[Royal Decree]]", and reduces Jaden to 1000 [[Life Points]]. He then activates "[[Sealer Formation]]" to add "Stop Defense" to his hand during his Draw Phase. He is happy and confident since on his next turn he'll finally defeat Jaden. Jaden however says that he has evolved his dueling since he first got to the academy. He then wins by using "[[Contact Out]]" to Special Summon "[[Elemental HERO Neos|Elemental Hero Neos]]" and "[[Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab]]" after destroying "[[Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8|Horus]]" with "[[Elemental HERO Flare Neos|Elemental Hero Flare Neos]]" via Contact Fusion (which does not use any Spell or Trap cards). After his loss, Sorano wanders through the forest, wondering how his calculations failed him. Because of his anger, his Deck turns black, and Trueman appears before him. Sorano questions who he is, and he responds that he was awakened from the darkness of Sorano's heart. He changes his form, now looking identical to Sorano himself, and states he'll need to get rid of the original. He activates his [[Duel Disk]].
Jaden defeats a Ra Yellow student using "[[Elemental HERO Sparkman|Elemental Hero Sparkman]]" and then notices a flock of black birds over the forest. Trueman defeats Sorano, attacking directly with "[[Dark Archetype]]" to win. The black birds swoop down on him. Jaden has a vision as his eyes change to the bichromatic style of [[Yubel (character)|Yubel]], and he sees Sorano and other students engulfed in blackness and asking for help. His next Duel is supposed to start, but Jaden tells them all they'll have to continue tomorrow, and calls [[Tyranno Hassleberry]] to follow him. The two run off. They arrive where Sorano was defeated by Trueman, and find a pile of black-tainted cards. Jaden receives a call from Axel, who informs him of the strange going-ons in Domino City, and requests Jaden join him there. Jaden tells Hassleberry to locate Sorano, and runs off towards the docks. On his way, he calls Chancellor Sheppard, telling him it's an emergency, and he's borrowing one of the school's speedboats. Axel sees Tsutomu and attempts to question him on what's happening as he's the only resident Axel has located. Tsumotu runs, and leads him into a trap. He's surrounded by what appear to clones of Tsutomu, and they merge into their true form - Trueman.
