The room's atmosphere curdled with shared dismay. Jaden, Yuma, Yudai, and Yuya stared at the scattered common cards from their freshly opened packs, their faces a canvas of letdown. The only sound was Yusaku's dismissive scoff; he'd already written the whole endeavor off. Yugi was lost somewhere in his own mind, and Yusei's attention was consumed by the disassembled Duel Runner on the table. Yuga managed a weak, sympathetic smile, but it did nothing to lighten the gloom. From where you watched, you saw the collective slump in their postures, the faded excitement. A spark of decision ignited within you. You'd slip away unnoticed and return with a surprise—more packs, a second chance to turn their day right.
