I have some good news. I was just contacted by a dueling team who saw the news reports about you all and your battle against GHOULS. They sounded really interested about dueling the three of you this coming Tuesday.

Since he defeated Edo in his Pro-League duel today, there's been a real increase in the amount of interest Juudai is getting. I'm even getting one or two offers from those with more higher ranked duelists.
I think this has been a good boost for him.

Well, I hold in my hand one shiny new Pro-League managers licence. Kouyou was right... it was a lot easier to get one of these than I first thought, though I didn't really have any worries about not passing it.
At least now I shouldn't find it hard to do the work I need to do.

I'm thinking sometime in the near future, I may take on some other Pro-Duelist hopefuls, since right now all we have is Juudai.

I have finally made some progress. I had to make so many phone calls, but I finally have an opponent for you in the Pro League, Juudai!
The duel is a little short notice, as it's tomorrow, but it's the only day they would arrange it for.

I can't believe this has happened...
...after everything he's been through and fought against... he was fighting until his last moment, then his life was cruelly taken away from him... by human hands no less.
Oh god Juudai, I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry.


...telling his parents over the phone was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I couldn't let that fall on the shoulders of his friends though, they're going through enough as it is...
...I'll be meeting them at the train station tomorrow, so I can at least take them to see him...

I think I'll be glad when spring arrives. I'm not much of a winter person.

EDIT: ( Private to Juudai )

*Midori is waiting for Juudai to call by her apartment. She looks at the clock on the wall in her living room and notes he's later than he said he would be. Guess he got held up? Or maybe he just plain forgot.
She thinks about maybe giving him a call before she suddenly hears a knock at the door. She goes to answer it and sees Juudai stood outside her door...
... he looks soaking wet. Happy. But very soaking wet.*

Juudai... what happened?

*She steps aside to let him in*

I saw the destruction on the news and the announcement of a take over...
...this really isn't good at all. Why would they want to execute Duel Spirits and the humans that befriend them...? And I'm really doubting the cause of the destruction were those named.

I hope Juudai and his friends are okay... I haven't heard from him recently, other than his posts here.

... that's a lot of paperwork.
How behind on this WAS he.

Looks like I've got a lot to sort out here, I best get started. I'll probably have it all sorted out by tomorrow at the earliest.
