Kirei: I can't believe I'm hitting the nails into my virtual coffin.
O'Brien: Kirei, why are you insistent on worsening your situation?
Kirei: Uh…cause I'm me? That and when I was asked, I just couldn't say no. It's too fun an opportunity.
Anyway! I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh GX or else the I would've made a plotline that made sense! I also do not own all the OC so a thanks goes out to ThunderousViktory-the person that makes West Academia possible-Lady Harkness, Oak-chan, and my cousin, Miyazaki the Midnight Swordsman. But it's not too late to accept more OC! I'll tell you how at the end of the chapter!

"Sand. Sand. Ooh~" the other passengers in the dune buggy glanced at the me. I flatly continued, "More sand."
Inaudible sighs escaped from everyone. We've rode in this thing for almost an hour now. This may sound like an easy trip but try enjoy being a car while cruising through dunes at over 38 degrees Celsius (1)! Though I'm accustomed to the heat, does not mean I enjoy it.
"Gracie, there is no use in complaining," I was chided from the other occupant of the backseat with me: my brother Austin. He's my twin, only older than me by 14 minutes. However, we were like two sides of a coin-absolutely different yet always together. That's why he's the only one that can call me 'Gracie' instead of Ava Grace or Ava. I leaned back against the seat when slobber was slathered onto my cheek. I wipe at the drool and pat my pet tiger, Aerynn, on his head. Austin was right, I shouldn't be complaining since I was the on that volunteered us for the assignment.
A beeping was heard. My parents and Austin glanced at the device on their wrists. When they found it wasn't theirs, I glanced down to see my wrist gadget, the Weapon And Tool Compression Holder (WATCH for short), beeping. I clicked a button and a projection of a girl around my age with turquoise hair and bright green eyes was shown, "What's up Ava. Arrive at your school yet?"
"Hey Jazz," I greeted. "I'm not there yet. Still riding in the car with the family."
Jazz, short for Jazzlyn, waved, "Hi Mr. and Mrs. O'Brien and Austin too. Well, neither am I but we're close…I think."
"Jazz, c'mon it's nearing the briefing meeting," a voice from her background chided. I could see a boy a near mirror image of Jazz on the screen. I waved, "Good to see you too, Johan." the guy was closer in range, "Oh how's it been, Ava? I heard you're going to West along with Austin. I hope it goes well for you both."
I smiled, "I could say the same for you too. After all I'm not the one going to live in the Alps."
"It beats the Sahara, I'd fry. Good luck." he laughed. Both waved before cutting their connection. Johan and Jazzlyn Andersen were twins like me and Austin. We along with others are apart of an international organization known as Echo. Those of us that work under Echo are called PAD, an acronym for paranormal anomaly detectives, and investigate the supernatural. You know things like werewolves, vampires, or zombies.
However, Austin and I have been put on a special assignment from the higher ups. Though technically neither of us are qualified to be full-time PAD, as one of the highest ranked cadets we were asked to go undercover at one of the Duel Academia branches. While we would attend West Academia, other high ranked cadets would be at the sister schools.
West Academia, according the files we received, lately has been vandalized with strange hieroglyphic markings around the school. Normally, we wouldn't delve too deep into it however the glyphs have been causing commotion as they are spells. These spells have caused numerous problems such as bizarre weather, strange sicknesses, unexplainable sights, and 'hauntings'. When there's occurrences like that, well…it's not exactly a call you can ignore. From what I hear, it- like all of the Academia worldwide -is located in a remote and weird location: the Sahara Desert (actually it's borderline between it and a jungle terrain but still). I also was informed that the school is much like a military academy, a perfect fit in my dad's opinion.
The heat waves squiggled about as I saw a patch of red then yellow and finally blue. At first I thought it was a trick of the heat and imagination. However it proven to be no mirage as the sigh began to expand further and start to form a cluster of buildings. I leaned out the window and cried, "Finally! The oasis in the desert!"
Yes, at last, we've arrived to what would probably be the most exciting experience yet-West Academia.

Kirei: Yes it's short but that's how all my prologues are.
Ava: Actually, it's because she's still hoping for more character submissions.
Kirei: Oi vey, another one that doesn't care to keep my secrets~
Authoress Note:
1) Um, I live in America, where I find us to be a bit…weird. As far as I know a lot of other places in the world use Celsius so that's what I'm going with. For those of you that use Fahrenheit, Ava Grace was saying 'it's over 100 degrees Fahrenheit'.
As for those that would like to be in the story. I have a profile sheet to file out and sent via PM. You can make your characters as interesting or strange as you like. Seriously. It helps me make some insane ideas. Insane ideas= interesting plot and faster updates.
