Finding Edo Phoenix was certainly an easy task.

Edo was waiting for them. Kaito got the message earlier. With a bloody smiley emoji.

Asshole.

Even worse, is where he is. Which part of the city he claim as their base of operation.

For some twisted, sick joke, the Academia pulls a wool over their eyes. Using the last place Kaito suspect.

They claims Heartland Tower as their central base.

Kaito and Haruto's home.

If it was not mocking them, symbol of Academia conquers Heartland, he doesn't know what it was.

"It's deserted." Shun muttered. "Trap?"

"Who knows and who cares?" Grunted Kaito. Throwing the entrance door open.

The interior almost rends his heart.

It hasn't change. Maybe there some crack in the walls and on the floor. Result of the tower almost toppled over during the first siege. And numerous high-tech stuff are turned off due lacking power. No robots going here and there.

But aside from that, it was exactly like how Kaito know it.

Exactly like when he left it behind, on that day, when he went to pick Haruto up. As if he just turned off the power and take a sabbatical to his vacation home in countryside without ordering some cleaning service and maintenance crew.

Only changes made is proud painting in the lobby, depicting a spiral and a crest. Symbol of Fusion Summon and the Obelisk Soldier respectively.

Growling, Kaito reach for it and tore it apart.

"Let's go."

They use the lift to reach a certain floor that Kaito know Edo was on.

It was the best floor for Duel Practice.

Sure enough, Edo was waiting on them.

"Good morning, Tenjou-san. I see you brought a friend—"

"Cut the pleasantries, Fusion."

Edo look bit annoyed. "Well. Rude." He commented. "But I guess I can let it slide. We all are bit... impatient."

His steel blue eyes regarded them like a blade.

"Let's put an end to this charade."
