Trax Carter never had any intention of joining the Arena. In fact, he quite enjoyed the life he led, roaming the world planted firmly on his track. He saw sights untold, and the beauty of the land around him, and it brought him peace. However, one day, he came across a very worried and haggard looking Gorty, who pleaded with Trax to assist him. There was a lot of rambling Trax didn't quite understand, something about clones Gorty made that escaped or something and needing to find them. Not wanting to just leave him in the middle of nowhere, Trax allowed him to come along. After some hours of travel, Gorty informed Trax of a grave threat the entire world would possibly face if they couldn't find the clones he was searching for. To try and lure the clones out of hiding, Gorty suggested joining the newly announced Grand Ball Cup Tournament, and, not wanting to see the potential destruction of the land he loves, Trax agreed to join, hoping to improve his own skills.
