Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh GX or Yugioh itself. I do, however, own the plot with my friend James over here. Say hi, James.

James: Hi.

And I own the original characters with my yami, Lugi. Say dark magician girl.

Lugi: No. I refuse to speak to you after turning me into a striped cat and a pink clad fairy with brown hair.

Yes...my magic can get a little out of hand sometimes. On with the story!

"No! I can't be late for my first day of school!" The auburn-haired teenager dashed down the street to the large skyscraper ahead. "Got…to…get…to…school! Ow! Watch where you're going!"

The perpetrator stood up and brushed himself off. "Sorry. Where are you off to?"

"School."

"Are you in a hurry?"

The girl lifted an eyebrow. "Uh, yeah. I think it's pretty obvious."

The boy gave a hearty laugh, flipping his whit hair over his shoulder. "Nice. You better go." He turned around…and no one was there. He smiled, and walked away.

"Must…get…inside before…they…close the gate!" The girl increased her speed and…

"Ow! Curse you, stupid gate!" She screamed, hearing laughing close by. "Who's there?" she asked apprehensively, whirling around. There was a rustle in the bushes. She dove in. "Hi-ya!"

"Whoa!" A white-haired girl tumbled out of the bushes. The auburn haired girl saw fear in her dull gray eyes. She stopped short.

"Is…something…wrong?"

"N-no," the white haired girl stammered. "Everything's fine."

"What were you doing behind the bushes?"

I was seeing whether I liked the school or not. My parents enrolled me, but I want to go back home!" she wailed.

"Why? You don't like it here?"

Just then the bell rang. The two girls grabbed each other's arms and dragged each other to the building, squeezing through the gate.

"Names?" the pinched-looking secretary asked in monotone.

"Jade Yukito."

"Aurora Snow."

The secretary looked at Jade. "I've heard that name before."

"Yeah," Jade said. "Everybody names their kids after semiprecious stones now."

Before the secretary had a chance to tell the girls that hadn't been what she was thinking, they had disappeared.

The girls thundered down the hall. Aurora's long flowing hair billowed behind her as she ran. They stopped short at a balcony overlooking a rather large playing field.

"What are they doing?" Jade asked her companion.

"Dueling."

"At school? Are they crazy?"

"Uh…" Aurora sported a half-smile. "Do you know what D.A. stands for?" Aurora asked.

Jade shook her head. "What?"

"Duel Academy."

"NOOOOOO!"

"Yes."

Jade gasped. "But…but…I hate dueling!"
