Okay. I've been playing around with this idea for a while. This is just the prologue. This Idea is Shay and Yuya are asked to tell the story of what they and their friends went through while at a military training academy. If people like it I will continune with it. Let me know if you want more of not please. This is not supposed to be a cross over but some Zexal characters will appear later on as well as some Oc's.

Note: I use english names in my stories. If you don't like that don't read. Thanks.

Disclaimer: I do not in any way shape or form own Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V. writing this is just to entertain and practice my writing skills.

Prologue:

Clouds gathered quickly in the sky above as a group of seven approached a large building. Declan Akaba lead the way as the group leader. Zuzu Boyle and Lulu Obsidian were the support pillars of Yuya Sakaki and Shay Obsidian, the only two survivors to return to the area. Two police officers involved in freeing the survivors from their fate were also present to hear from what they said.

"Are you sure you can tell us everything that happened here?" Declan asked as Yuya sat on the bottom of the stair case and Shay leaned against it on Yuya's left.

"I have to," Yuya said. "For all those who didn't make it. Their story, what they…what all of us went through here. It needs to be told."

Shay nodded in agreement.

"Just so we're all aware I have asked Zuzu here to document on camcorder everything," Declan told the group as Zuzu prepared the camcorder she had with her.

"Here Declan I'll let you handle the camcorder. I'm here so Yuya has someone to lean on," Zuzu said handing the device to the older boy.

Yuya and Shay led the group around the building showing everyone the rooms the kids being trained here used. Yuya pointed out who had what room as Shay explained were their friends had spent their last hours alive. Yuya added a few things here and there.

When they got back to the staircase emotions were running rampant. Shay once again leaned on the wall with Yuya back on the stairs. They took a few minutes to compose themselves.

"I knew this was going to be hard but I wasn't expecting it to be this hard," Yuya said as he fought against the emotions he was feeling.

"You okay to keep going?" Shay asked him in a whispered voice as he was also overcome with emotion.

"Yeah I can do this," Yuya whispered back.

"First off I want to make it clear this building was used as a military training facility," Shay said in a clear voice despite the emotions welling up inside him. "We were being trained as soldiers for war."

"It all started when we were all brought to the place," Yuya said after Shay fell silent. "Shay and I formed a group with some other new recruits. We joined together for support and friendship but we didn't realize how bad things were going to get."

Yuya paused for a while to compose himself. Shay decided to finish what his friend had started.

"We kept each other strong, kept each other going. That was all but it wasn't enough. Most of us died anyway."

"How many of you were in this group?" asked Declan.

"There was originally me, Shay, Yuto, Yuri, Kite, Gong, Sylvio, Dennis and Celina. Two weeks later Sora joined us then it was Yugo and Rin followed by Moon Shadow," Yuya answered.

"Kite started out not being part of the group for the first year. It took me some time before I convinced him to join us. I was only able to do so after things got harder for us," Shay smiled.

"Times were bad then. They punished us for failing training exercises, classes or rules. If we rebelled or fought back the punishments were made worse. If we tried to escape or even thought or spoke of it we were punished. Some died others simply disappeared and were never seen again."

Yuya shuddered at his own words. Zuzu hugged him close. Shay decided to finish the introduction to the long story about to be told.

"After most of the group was lost we gained the assistance and support of some of the other cadets to try and get the academy shut down."

"Can you remember the names of any of the people who were important at this place?" Declan asked before Shay got too carried away with his thoughts.

"I can," Shay told him, looking straight at him. "Leo Akaba, known as the professor by the cadets. He was in charge. Instructor Jean-Michel Roget. He interrogated anyone who tried to escape or planed on escaping. He went after cadets who knew others were planning to leave or who were planning a revolt. Next is Dr. Buggenstein. Everyone called him the Doktor. He pretended to make sure we stayed healthy and did a crap job at caring for injuries as long as they weren't from punishments. Barrett was in charge of the training exercises. He also tortured us if Roget couldn't get us to talk through interrogation."

"I remember someone else too," Yuya said, closing his eyes in concentration. "The one who commanded the boat we had to board to get to the academy. I can't remember his name though."

"I remember him too. Everyone called him Captain Cutter. He was never around unless he brought someone new to the place but he's remembered. I hated him after I started at the academy," Shay closed his eyes after all of that was said as Yuya had done before.

"Are you ready to go back and reveal everything that happened here?" Declan asked them quietly.

Shay and Yuya both nodded resolved to do this one last task. Finally they were ready to put the past behind them. To find closure not just for themselves but for their friends and for those who didn't survive.

That's it for now. Again let me know if You like this and if I should continue in a review or you can PM me and let me know. As usual constructive criticism and flames are welcom as they help me improve.
