Welcome to Duel Academy
"Good morning and welcome my students. I'm Chancellor Sheppard the headmaster here,and you are the best and brightest young duelists in the world. Now please get yourselves settled in at your assigned dorms. I think you'll find them quite comfortable ,depending oj how you're ranked of course."Chancellor Sheppard chuckled as he welcomed the new students to their first year at Duel Academy.
Outside
"Well I dunno about you Sy but it looks like I'm in the Slifer Red dorm."Jaden Yuki said while going through his PDA sitting behind his new friend Syrus Truesdale.
"That's cool same with me."Syrus replied before another first year student Bastion Misawa walked to them.
"Hey you in red too?"
"Well now let's see here. Yellow sleeves,yellow buttons,I don't think so."
"Oh,that's why Sy and I are in red."
"Please don't tell me you just figured that out now."
"Don't worry Bastion,he's always been like that."A spiky blonde haired boy wearing a red jacket like Syrus and Jaden chuckled putting his hand on Bastion's shoulder.
"Oh hey Raito you're in red too?"Syrus asked making Raito and Bastion sigh.
"No Syrus I'm in Obelisk Blue and I'm wearing red because I want to."
"Oh. I see."Syrus said making Raito sigh again.
At the Slifer Red dorm
"This isn't a dorm. It's an outhouse with a deck."Syrus whined as he looked at the dorm.
"Are you kidding? You guys gotta check out the view,this is great!"Jaden yelled to the two Slifers before they went to their rooms."Alright I guess this is our room."
"Kinda small isn't it?"
"Hey you're a small guy."Jaden chuckled as he and Syrus walked into their room."Anyway I like it. This will make a sweet pad for our first year here."
"Yeah. Kinda weird meeting at the entrance exams and now roommates?"
"Let's shine some light in here."Jaden said ignoring what Syrus said opening the curtain.
"Hey! Those were closed for a reason!"A voice yelled from the top bunk surprising the two.
"Oh sorry."
"We didn't see you up there."
"Well can you see me now?"Then a fairly chubby boy with a face resembling a Koala's sat up growling scaring the two first years. This is Chumley Huffington,a third year student."Would you stop screaming! Tell me who you are and why you're in my room."
"I'm Jaden Yuki."
"And I'm Syrus Truesdale."
"And we're your new roommates."
"Yeah you're new alright. Lemme tell you how the whole color thing works,that's more important than anything."
"The three dorms right. There's Obelisk Blue,Ra Yellow,and Slifer Red."Raito explained stopping Chumley."Obelisk Blue students are high ranking students through high grades or connections,Ra Yellow are students with pretty high potential. And then there's us,the lowest ranking dorm,we're mostly students who got a pretty low score on the exams but managed to win the entrance duel."
"Pretty much that. And I'm Chumley by the way."
Inside the school
"A duel arena? Seems pretty cool to have one in the school."Raito said as they walked into a duel arena.
"Wanna duel?"
"So I could destroy both of you no way."
"What are a trio of Slifer Red rejects doing here?"An Obelisk blue student asked as he and another one walked up to the three,
"We're just looking around."
"Yeah we don't want any trouble."
"If you're on our turf then you must be."
"Wait you're the kid that beat Crowler. Hey Chazz it's the kid that beat Crowler."One of the two students said to a dark spiky haired boy in an Obelisk Blue jacket sitting in the stands.
"Oh hey what's up I'm Jaden and he's Chazz was it?"
"His name is Chazz Princeton and he was number one in Duel Prep School so give him the proper respect."
"Yeah he's gonna be the next King of Games the bst duelist in the world."
"If it's possible."Raito chuckled catching the attention of the five."It's impossible for him to be the next King of Games because it's gonna be me or Jaden."
"Slifer slackers as the King of Games that'll be the day."
"You don't believe me? Then Chazz Princeton better prove himself in a duel against me."
"Fine. A duel right now and then your friend Jaden is next if he really did beat Crowler with that kind of skill."Chazz chuckled as Raito put on his Duel Disk.
"This sure is a fine crew."A blonde haired girl in a reverse colored Obelisk Blue uniform said walking up to the six.
"Whoa who is that?"Syrus asked blushing while Raito put his Duel Disk away.
"Hey Alexis have you come here to watch me wipe the floor with those two?"
"I'm here to remind you about the Obelisk welcome dinner. You're late."
"I was just on my way."Chazz said before leaving.
"I'm sorry if Chazz was a bit mean. Not all Obelisks are like that,he's just a jerk. Especially to Slifers."
"Don't worry I'll still beat him in one turn."
"We really have to work on your over confidence."Syrus sighed while Jaden was smiling and Raito was looking at his deck.
"Maybe a few turns."
"The Slifer Dinner should be starting soon so you better be going."
"Oh yeah. Let's go."Jaden said as the three of them started to leave."Wait what was your name again?"
"Alexis Rhodes and yours?"
"Jaden Yuki."
"Raito Atlas. Let's go guys."Then the three left Alexis in the arena smiling.
"Jaden,Raito."
Later in the Slifer Red cafeteria
"Hello Children I am Professor Banner. Now before we eat,why don't you say something about-"
"This stuff's good!"
"We're supposed to say something about ourselves."
"Ok how 'bout this:I'm starvin!"Jaden yelled with his mouth stuffed with food.
"He's walking over here Jaden. I mean it he's right-"Raito sighed before Banner walked over to their table.
"Well since some of us don't feel like waiting. Let's just eat."
Later
"I'm stuffed,Professor Banner sure can cook!"Jaden yawned patting his stomach while Syrus poured tea and Raito sat looking at a card in his deck befote their PDAs went off.
"It's from Princeton."Raito growled looking at who sent the message.
"Chazz? If he's looking for a duel you're looking for trouble."
"Hey slackers,don't think I forgot about our duel. Tonight at Midnight, it's on."Chazz said in the nessage making Raito angrier.
"I'm going. Jaden you stay here."Raito growled leaving.
"He's gonna have trouble. Jaden you should go just in case."Chumley said making Jaden go after Raito.
In the arena
"So you still decided to show up. Big mistake."Chazz chuckled as Raito stood on the other side of the field.
"Just shut up and duel!"
"Fine then. Oh and by the way,winner gets the loser's best card so have yours ready."
"Fine by me."
"Let's Duel!"The two then set their decks in their Duel Disks activating the life point counter and field.
Chazz vs Raito
Turn 1
"I'll go first slacker. And I'll summon Reborn Zombie in Defense mode(DEF:1600)."After drawing his card from the deck,Chazz put a card sideways on his Duel Disk summoning a mummified zombie."And I'll end my turn with a facedown."
Turn 2
"It's my turn and I draw,and I'll summon my Vice Dragon in attack mode using its special ability that special summons it at the cost of half its points if you have a monster and I don't(ATK:1000)."After drawing his card,Raito put it on the Duel Disk making a purple dragon appear."Now I'll summon my Strong Wind Dragon by tributing my Vice Dragon and my Strong Wind's super power,is that if I tribute summon it by using a dragon,it gains half its attack points(ATK:2900)."Just after that,Raito removed Vice Dragon's card to put another in it's place summoning a tall green dragon."Attack! Strong Burst!"Strong Wind Dragon unleashed a flamethrower destroying Reborn Zombie and hitting Chazz as well.
Chazz: 2700 LP
"Lemme guess,your dragon's other ability is that if it attacks a defense position monster,your opponent takes damage equal to the difference?"
"Bingo."
"Well your dragon won't be activating it thanks to my facedown:CHTHONIAN BLAST! Now since you destroyed my monster I can take out yours!"Strong Wind Dragon was then destroyed by a blast of wind sent by Chazz's card.
"I play Card Destruction and if you were number one you'd know what this card does."
"Yeah yeah,discard your hand and draw the same amount."
"Alright."Raito was smiling at a card he drew and put it with the other cards he had just drawn."I'll play these two facedown and end my turn."
"You got this duel beat bud!"Jaden yelled cheering for Raito before a familiar blonde walked up.
"I knew I'd find you guys here."Alexis said before noticing the field and Life point difference."Whoa did he do all that to Chazz in one turn?"
"That's Raito for ya."
Turn 3
"It's my turn you lucky punk. And I'll summon my Chthonian Soldier in attack mode(ATK:1200). And now I'll attack you directly."Chazz smiled summoning a warrior with demonic armor and it charged at the Blonde Slifer.
"I activate my facedown! Call of the Haunted to revive my Small Piece Golem from my grave(ATK:1100)!"Just in time Raito pressed a button on his Duel Disk making his facedown flip up and release purple smoke that a small humanoid rock came from and took the attack from Chthonian Soldier.
Raito: 3900 LP
"You brought out that weakling to reduce your damage to 100? You really are a Slifer. And I'll end my turn at that."
"Is he alright he won't start his turn."Alexis pondered before hearing laughing from Raito and Jaden.
"Yeah,he's just about to end this."
Turn 4
"My turn I draw! I play my Card of Sanctity so we draw until we have 6 cards in our hands. And by removing from play my Vice Dragon and my Extra Veiler from my grave,I can summon CHAOS EMPEROR DRAGON-ENVOY OF THE END!"Shocking everyone but Raito,a colossal green dragon with skeletal like armor on it appeared on the field.
"Summon what?!"
"I play my dragon's special ability! By giving up 1000 life points,My dragon sends all cards we control and in our hands to the grave! And you take damage equal to all the sent cards time 300! That's 14 cards meaning you take 4200 points of damage."
"Then that means!"
"Raito wins."Alexis gasped as Chaos Emperor Dragon unleashed a yellow and purple flame that destroyed all cards on the field and made the two duelists discard their hands before engulfing Chazz in it.
Chazz: 0 LP
Raito: 2900 LP
Winner: Raito
"What's that?"Raito asked hearing footsteps coming closer shocking Alexis.
"Campus Security,and if we get caught we're in deep trouble."
"Why aren't we students?"Jaden asked confused while Chazz stood up angry.
"The rules say no after hours dueling on Campus and Chazz knows that."
"I'll get my revenge slacker,and next time you won't be able to draw that Dragon on time."
5 minutes later
"That was a close one."Jaden sighed as he,Raito,and Alexis made it out before Campus Security found them.
"That combo at the end was impressive. How did you manage to do that so quickly?"
"It came to me when Chazz had said to put up our best cards. I wasn't about to give him this."Raito then pulled out a different card to show a black and red dragon with piercing yellow eyes,sharp claws,crimson armor,and blood red colored wings.
"What is that?"
"My Red Dragon Archfiend,my best monster."
"And a pain to duel against."Jaden scoffed making the other two laugh.
