Chapter One

* * *

P.O.V. Jaden Yuki

"Jaden! Jaden wake up!"

"No." I mumbled.

"Jaden, get up or I'll... I'll hit you!"

"Syrus, we both know that if you hit me, you'd only be hurting yourself, physically and emotionally." I joked.

"Ha ha." Syrus said sarcastically. "You're gonna be late for the new duelists!"

"Okay, okay," I grumbled. "I'm up."

"Jaden, you know that if you're late Dr. Crowler is gonna be pissed."

"Screw him." I said. That man has no life other than finding new and "exciting" ways to torture me and my friends. As I got dressed for yet another day of boredom, I thought about my family and old friends. Normally, I wouldn't be thinking about them, but I had just had the strangest dream...

* * *

After I had finished getting ready, Sy managed to drag me out of the dorm. Babbling about God knows what, and I wasn't paying any attention. It had been a while since I've thought of Cammie. And seeing her in my dream brought back unwanted memories. I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't even notice that Alexis and her two friends, Jasmine and Mindy had joined us until Alexis started saying my name.

"Hey Jaden," she said. "What's going on?"

"Huh?" My brain was refocusing again. Lex was standing next to me while Mindy was having a serious looking conversation with Jasmine while poor Syrus was stuck in the middle.

"You seem out of it, is something wrong?" See, thats the thing about Alexis, she knows me better than everyone and yet, she hardly knows me at all... if that makes any sense. Unlike Blair I can tell she sees things that other people don't, and that's what she loves me for. Not the things everyone else notice, like Blair.

"Nothing," I lied.

"Jaden, tell me, please?" Alexis begged. I looked away. I wasn't sure if I was ready to tell Alexis yet. "Fine!" Alexis said in frustration.

"Hey guys, look! There they are!" Mindy called. She was right; there was a huge group of eager teenagers waiting in line for their upcoming fate. My eyes went wide and I stopped in my tracts. No. This isn't happening to me. Not now. Not after what happened last night.

"Shit." I muttered. Everyone turned around to look at me.

"What's up Jay?" Syrus asked. But I didn't answer him. Their questioning looks poured down on me, but I didn't and wouldn't answer them. There she was. Her hair was the color of Honey. Her skin as pale as peaches. And I bet if she turned around, she would have brown eyes.

"Cammie?" I called quietly. "Cammie Barton?" She turned around, her deep brown eyes were brimming with suppressed excitement.

"Jaden Yuki?" she asked in disbelief.

"Yeah," I said. "Hi."

* * *

We stood there staring at each other for a while, waiting for the other person to talk. Finally, I broke the ice.

"I thought you weren't going to go to Duel Academy."

"I thought I wasn't going to either, but after you left, I started...practicing." She grinned, her smile leaking into her voice.

"Practicing?" I asked.

"U mm... yeah. So, Jaden, who are your friends?" She asked, avoiding my question.

"Oh... uh..." I started.

"I'm Syrus, this is Jasmine, Mindy and Alexis."

"Hi! It's nice to meet you all!" Cammie said.

"Hey," everyone said.

"Cammie Barton, Arena Two," said a loud voice.

"Well, I guess I got to go," Cammie said,

"Good luck!" Alexis said with a smile. They hugged.

"Bye Jaden! Syrus, Mindy, Jasmine, Alexis, I'll see you all soon, when I win!" she exclaimed confidently. And with that she left for Arena two.

"How can she be so sure that she is going to get in?" Mindy asked.

"She was one of the only people who ever beat me." I said. "And, this was last summer."
