A/N: Welcome fanfiction lovers to my newest story! This story is inspired by an alternate ending to the White Night Duel or White Alexis VS Jaden, in addition for simplicity purposes, Sartorius' original name, Saiou is used, while Syrus refers to Jaden as 'Aniki' or 'Big brother' in English. What follows is the alternatively created past story involving Saiou, Aster and The D. This is important as it will help you understand later parts of the story! Afterwards is the alternate end to the White Night duel, which uses entirely Japanese dialogue but English names with the exception of card names which use Janime's translated Japanese name.. If you want to know why, ask SkyTheWonder as he helped me out with the story. Anyway here's the backstory! In addition Sartorius/Saiou's goals are of the original Japanese version, but if you have questions on how it will work, simply private message SkyTheWonder or myself and we'll do our best to answer any questions you may have. Also its important to note the Society of Light is being portrayed as good rather than evil though the Society's members act coldly towards those below them or not in the group like they do in the anime.

Backstory

In this alternate timeline, the Ultimate D card (Destiny Hero Plasma) which was corrupted by the Light of Destruction was not touched by Saiou. The D was the only one to come into contact with it, however he still goes to Saiou for guidance but Saiou doesn't come into contact with the corrupted Plasma.

Aster's father is indeed killed (or kidnapped as the dub says) and as in the anime The D steals the Ultimate D card and becomes Aster's legal guardian to avoid detection. However Saiou encounters Aster later on and reveals to the Destiny Hero duelist and reveals a terrible fate that is in store that he fears of but he doesn't know whom it's in store for.

Aster then vows to Saiou that he'll see to it the terrible fate doesn't come true. Then The D consults Saiou fearing the corrupt Ultimate D card, but Saiou feeling the evil presence within the card, he doesn't touch it. This leads to The D exiting with Saiou untainted by the card with Saiou naturally being concerned for The D, but he reveals his concerns to no one, not even Aster, simply because he feels Aster would be better off not living in fear from this information.

Being without his father, Aster turns to Saiou for guidance and Saiou becomes closer to Aster, the 2 becoming best friends. Saiou does this to keep watch on The D and to ensure Aster nor anyone else has something terrible happen to them.

Many years pass and after much research, Saiou learns the energy corrupting The D is that of 'The Light of Destruction', a highly dangerous and infectious wave of energy. Several hundreds (rather than billions) of years ago, this dark light energy was released from a white hole, the polar opposite of a black hole whereas a black hole absorbs and traps energy like a giant wormhole the white hole releases energy. As a result, when the sinister energy of The Light of Destruction bombarded the earth, ultimately taking a host in the Ultimate D card infecting it and The D once he himself came in contact with the card. Fearful of the being's power as well as being concerned for Aster becoming infected should he ever touch the corrupted Hero card, Saiou makes a promise to keep Aster safe and find a way to destroy the evil Light of Destruction.

Soon after, Aster enters the pro dueling leagues employing Saiou as his manager. Saiou helps to guide Aster to the top of the Pro League circuit, even going 30 professional duels without a single defeat, his most famous victory being against Duel Academy's #1 graduate, Zane Truesdale. The latter would go on an 11 duel losing streak before finally snapping in an Underground Duel, and claiming victory with 'Chimeratech Overdragon' but not before developing a sadistic dark persona known as 'Hell Kaiser' and using his new-found ideology of disrespecting his opponents and only thriving for victory to rise back to supreme in the Pro Leagues.

In the meantime, Saiou forms a secret society known as 'The Society of Light' hoping that by using it, the evil energy of the Light of Destruction will be destroyed and the world enlightened as a result by destroying all darkness. Later Aster makes a return to Duel Academy to have an 'All Heroes' duel with the academy's top student, despite the fact he was in the Academy's lowest dorm, Slifer Red, the top student was Jaden Kiyo Yuki, but before Aster actually returned, Saiou places his spiritual energy into his friend's deck.

The 2 Hero duelists face off with Aster emerging as the victor. Despite his hopes that infusing Aster's deck with his own spiritual energy would bring Jaden to his side and help him in purifying the world, rather than joining the Society, Jaden merely loses the ability to see his cards. Surprised that his initial strategy had failed, Saiou eventually comes to the Academy and with some verbal head games and a powerful but mysterious deck, soundly defeats Chazz Xavier Princeton and brings him into the organization.

Through Chazz, Saiou converts nearly all of the Obelisk Blue students, even painting the dormitory white and using it as a stronghold for his group. However Alexis Harper Rhodes soon learns of the dorm's fate after Jaden's unexpected return and duels the converted Chazz, hoping to bring him back to his old self along with the rest of the Blues, but fails, losing to Chazz's newer Armed Dragon deck and also joins the organization, quickly becoming Saiou's favorite female student.

During this time however Jaden returns after being gone for around a week or 2 with a new Neo-Space deck and defeats Aster in a rematch. After his loss, Aster begins to distance himself from Saiou, feeling as though his friend let him down. Along with Alexis, Saiou brings most of Ra Yellow into the Society, including Ra genius Bastion Misawa, hoping the large group of students can defeat the Light of Destruction and the darkness that has shrouded the world.

Soon after, during Sheppard's Genex tournament, Saiou devises a plan to use Prince Ojin's laser satellite S.O.R.A. (or Misgarth in the dub) to destroy the Light of Destruction (and presumably the world itself) and create a new pure White World (though Saiou will ensure he and his members survive. In the dub S.O.R.A. was instead called Misgarth and is a brainwashing probe that can brainwash the planet).

Ojin is defeated and the keys are obtained. Several days later, Jaden brings Chazz back to his old self by using Chazz's former ace cards – the Ojamas. Saiou's plans are disrupted however when the corrupted D steals the keys, giving them to Jaden and Aster, respectively, knowing that if Saiou retained them, he would be in danger of being destroyed by the satellite.

Jaden is given a key because of his ability to defy destiny and overcome Saiou's attempts to bring him into the Light while Aster is given one because of his lack of trust in Saiou as back when Jaden defeated him, he felt Saiou had let him down and has since developed a newfound desire to win duels on his own merit.

Saiou meanwhile is undaunted as he endows Alexis with a great force of light, turning her heart and personality into one of seemingly literal ice in order to resist Jaden's dark influence, as Saiou rewards her loyalty with a new White Night deck, focusing on ice and cold while specially naming her his Apostle of Light.

The 2 then meet in the duel arena, with Alexis determined to win and shatter Jaden's darkness as well as becoming Saiou's lower shrine forever and that is where our story begins…

At the Arena (During Episode 94)

Back at the duel arena Alexis still had 3500 of her starting 4000 life points while Jaden was down to only 1300.

Jaden held himself close to keep warm from shivering as a result of the freezing cold he felt whenever he took damage from Alexis' ice-cold monster's attacks.

To the casual observer it probably looked like an Ice version of a deadly Shadow Game.

Finally Jaden managed to stop shivering as he spoke quietly to himself. "When I take damage, coldness will strike me…" He whispered.

Alexis giggled coldly. "As long as Snow Sprite is on the field, you must set magic cards for one turn. Also, when White Night's Fort is on the field, you cannot activate traps during my turn. And last but not least once per turn, I can destroy a set card due to the effect of White Night's Queen. I'm certain your deck is sealed from my combo." She boasted with a cool, cocky smirk.

Jaden sighed. There had to be something he could do.

"Jaden can't use Polymerization now." Atticus said looking down at his brainwashed sister sadly. He truly wished there was some way he could help besides cheering Jaden on.

"Because Polymerization is a magic card." Chazz commented.

"How is he going to do…?" Hassleberry started to say before stopping himself.

"Big Brother…" Syrus said as Jaden struggled to get up holding his left arm in pain.

'I must calm down. Everything turns back because of that annoying Snow Sprite. That smile is just like hers. I want to beat it up!' He thought as he looked at Snow Sprite.

"My turn! Draw!" Jaden yelled.

"I summon Card Gunner in attack mode!" Jaden said.

A small red machine that looked like a video projector appeared on the field.

"Effect of Card Gunner activates. I can send cards from top of my deck to graveyard to increase attack by 500 for each! I send 3 cards from deck to graveyard for this turn! And increase attack by 500 for each!" Jaden called, the machine's attack zooming up to 1900…

"Card Gunner, attack Snow Sprite!" Jaden ordered.

Trooper shot a few missiles at Snow Fairy which destroyed it lowering Alexis's score to 2700.

"Yes!" Syrus cheered.

"He can use magic cards now!" Hassleberry said

"I activate Pot of Greed! Now I draw two cards from my deck! I activate O-Over Soul! I bring back, Sparkman! Next I activate, Spark Gun! I equip to Sparkman! The effect of Spark Gun activates! I change Card Gunner to defense mode! Turn End!" Jaden called, after playing several magic cards in succession without missing a beat.

"Way to go! It's a Magic Rush!" Sy cheered.

"He'll beat her in no time if he keeps this up!" Hassleberry said

"But, if he keeps this up, Alexis won't sit back quietly. Still… How could an icy face like hers be smiling…" Atticus whispered, looking down at his sister, seeing her smiling cutely despite the fact that Jaden's magic cards were unsealed.

"Alexis…" Chazz said worried

"And it's all White Thunder's fault." said Atticus

Chazz freaked for a second then trying to be sincere spoke up. "T-this again…"

"No, I'm wrong… Poor Alexis…The blame's on everyone's incompetent brother." Atticus moaned.

"No, that's not true, Big Brother." said Chazz

"I never gave you permission to call me big brother." Atticus said

"Errm… Master!" Chazz replied as Hassleberry and Syrus looked up at the two.

"They're still at it." Hassleberry said

"That's interesting and all, but there are people dueling now." Syrus said as they returned back to watching the duel.

"My turn. Draw!" Alexis said. She smirked seeing her drawn card was White Veil.

"Activate, Continuous trap, Call of the Haunted! I special summon Snow Sprite with its effect." She announced.

"What?!" Jaden asked.

Alexis chuckled coldly seeing her Fairy return.

"Good try but my Snow Sprite won't go away. Effect of White Night's Queen. I can destroy a set card once per turn. Because of White Night's Fort, you couldn't activate set card anyway." Alexis sneered confidently.

"It seems like Alexis has changed." Chazz murmured.

"It's like she's a completely different person." Hassleberry said

"Alexis is merely being manipulated!" Chazz shot back almost strangling Hassleberry for insulting Alexis.

"Yeah. I must note that I feel her kind heart is hidden under that cold smile." Atticus commented.

"Maa…kindness? That's such a piercingly strong feeling." Syrus commented.

"Anyway, that isn't her original personality. Alexis!" Chazz yelled in a desperate attempt to break through to her.

"White Night's Queen, attack Sparkman!" She let loose a burst of cold wind destroying Sparkman. "Now, Snow Sprite, Attack Card Gunner!" She ordered as Snow Sprite shot a blast of ice from her finger destroying Card Gunner.

"Effect of Card Gunner activates. Draw one card." Jaden said.

"Turn End." Alexis declared.

Jaden looked at her seeing her smiling sweetly, though to Jaden her smile was a sick evil smile.

"I'm concerned that Alexis today… may be a completely different person!" Jaden said silently as he looked at Alexis who smiled and laughed in a cold sweet tone.

"Her play has hardly any opening!" Jaden said as the others looked on.

"Big Brother…" Syrus said softly.

"My turn. Draw! I summon Dandelion in defense mode! Turn end." Jaden said.

Alexis giggled coldly. "I see that my combo has you beaten. My turn. Draw!" Alexis looked over her cards for a second.

"I summon Cold Sleeper! Cold Sleeper, attack Dandelion!" Cold Sleeper opened it's doors and let out a gush of cold wind destroying Dandelion.

"Effect of Dandelion triggers! Two Fluff Tokens are summoned in defense mode!" Jaden shouted as two small white fluff-like token monsters appeared on Jaden's side, both having no attack or defense.

"Though you try to extend time, you still can't do anything." She taunted.

"I disagree! The duel is what people can't expect is going to happen. Not until the end!" Jaden said.

Alexis scoffed. "I will shatter that belief. Snow Sprite, attack Fluff Token!"

"White Night's Queen, attack the other Fluff Token!"

"Although my field is wiped out, I am getting very excited!" Jaden claimed.

"I wonder if you are still trying to show courage in this crisis." Alexis said.

"You should know it as well Alexis. To have fun like this because it's the duel. My turn. Draw! I activate effect of Necro Darkman (Necroshade in English)! I can normal summon an Elemental Hero without tribute!"

"What?!" Alexis yelled.

"Card Gunner's effect put him in the graveyard." Jaden explained calmly.

"Damn." She said getting annoyed.

"I summon Elemental Hero, Neos in attack mode! Neos attack Snow Sprite!" Jaden ordered as Neos obeyed and chopped Snow Sprite in half destroying her yet again reducing Alexis to 1300.

"Yes! Life went down!" Syrus said

"He finally made it!" Hassleberry said

"He shouldn't be careless." replied Atticus as everyone looked up at him. "Look at Alexis's eyes." He added.

"That was a very foolish move on your part." Alexis snickered.

"What?" Jaden asked confused.

"Effect of Cold Sleeper is triggered. I can special summon a destroyed monster at the end of battle phase. In other words, Snow Sprite can be summoned back!" She said.

"I just need to activate a magic card before battle phase ends!" Jaden said.

"A quickplay?!" She cried in surprise.

"I activate, Quick Summon! Summon Card Blocker!" Jaden said as the little warrior appeared clad in purple-green armor, his defense a measly 400.

"One monster zone cannot be used. Effect of Cold Sleeper activates. Come back, Snow Sprite!" She called out as Snow Sprite appeared from Cold Sleeper's chamber, kneeling in defense mode, her defense at 700.

"Ahh!" Hassleberry said, in slight fright.

"No!" Syrus said in fear.

"The monster special summoned by this effect, cannot change its position." Alexis said

"Turn end." Jaden said

"My turn! Draw! I sacrifice White Night's Queen, and Cold sleeper, to summon Blue Ice White Night's Dragon!" She yelled as an icy-blue crystallized dragon appeared on the field with a spine-chilling roar, its stats equal to the legendary Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

"Awesome!" said Jaden

"I activate continuous magic, White Blizzard. If a monster on your field is destroyed, you take 600 points of damage." She taunted, smiling playfully.

"Cool card." Jaden said

"I activate equip magic, White Veil. Equip to Blue Ice White Night's Dragon." Alexis answered with a cool, confident smile.

"No way!" Jaden said, horror struck that she would play Saiou's darkest card in his point of view.

"Chazz!" Syrus exclaimed

"He played that against Alexis!" Hassleberry said they both growled looking up at Chazz.

"The situation doesn't look good." Chazz said

"Blue Ice White Night's Dragon has effect to destroy a magic or trap card on Jaden's field that targets it. And also since it is equipped with White Veil, it can destroy a magic or trap card even if he doesn't receive attack." Atticus said as they all turned to face him.

"His set card will be destroyed anyway." Chazz said.

"Big brother…" Syrus said, worried for his surrogate older brother.

"It's such a powerful combo." Atticus said, worried for both Jaden's fate if he lost and Alexis' fate if she won.

Alexis smiled coldly. "Surrender in front of the white light. Battle! Blue Ice White Night's Dragon attack Neos!" She yelled as her blue-white crystal-like dragon aimed at Neos.

"Effect of Card Blocker is activated! It can change one monster on your field's attack target to it!" said Jaden

"Blue Ice White Night's Dragon, your target is Card Blocker!"

The mighty ice dragon crushed Card Blocker with one mighty ice blast.

"Because of effect of White Blizzard, you still take 600 points of damage." Alexis taunted, grinning innocently.

"Set facedown card. Turn end." she said

"It is useless for you to aim to attack Snow Sprite. Here's the other effect of Blue Ice White Night's Dragon. I can destroy one Magic or Trap card on my field to change your attack target to it." She explained, smirking.

"If he lets Neos attack Snow Sprite," Hassleberry said

"Alexis can destroy a Magic or Trap card to change attack target!" Syrus added

"He would then take damage from White Night's Dragon." Atticus finished, naturally worried.

"Alexis is doing so great." Chazz mused, smiling as his crush on her showed itself once more.

Hassleberry and Syrus looked at Chazz growling.

"What are you to do, Jaden? You are blocked in all directions." Alexis teased, smiling coldly.

"Big brother only has 700 life points!" Syrus exclaimed, getting somewhat panicky.

"If his monster is destroyed, he will take 600 damage points!" said Hassleberry

"Jaden doesn't look that he has already given up." Atticus mused as the 3 look at him then back at the duel.

"Alexis! I haven't given up yet. I said, didn't I? Duel is what you don't know what will happen until the end!" Jaden called fiercely.

"I will let you see your last useless struggle." Alexis responded

"My turn! Draw! Chazz! Atticus! I would like to borrow your power once again." Jaden said.

"What?" Chazz replied

"I see Jaden's drawing skill is as good as usual." Atticus mused.

"I must remove two cards from play. To special summon Magic Striker! I remove, Ojama Black and The Swing of Fond Memories. And next, I summon Armor Breaker in attack mode! Union with Magic Striker!" Jaden yelled.

"What do you aim to-" Alexis began before Jaden cut her off.

"Magic Striker can attack directly instead of a monster." Jaden interrupted her.

"You are so shrewd." said Alexis

"Attack Alexis directly!" Jaden shouted

The creature came at her and attacked her directly striking her with its hammer.

"Our life points are the same Alexis!" Jaden proudly proclaimed.

"How dare Jaden attack Alexis!" Chazz exclaimed.

"What does Chazz intend to say?" Syrus asked.

"What is this unpleasant feeling…?" Alexis mused quietly.

"When Armor Breaker equipped to a monster and inflicts damage, I can destroy one equip card on the field. The target is, White Veil! This will make Saiou's veil fail! I switch Neos to defense mode. Turn end!" Jaden yelled.

"My sacred White Veil…how dare you do that to it?!" She said angrily

The 4 in the bleachers acted scared.

"Huh? Just now, Alexis!" Syrus called, surprised.

"…wasn't cool at all!" Hassleberry added.

"With White Veil destroyed…" Chazz muttered.

"…Saiou's spell on Alexis is loosening?" Atticus finished.

"Prepare yourself, Jaden. My turn! Draw! Quickplay, Mystical Space Typhoon! Destroy one magic or trap card on the field. Destroy Armor Breaker! Blue Ice White Night's Dragon, attack Magic Striker!" Alexis yelled angrily

"Any battle damage with Magic Striker is reduced to zero!" explained Jaden

"But, White Blizzard still comes into effect." Alexis reminded, smirking.

"What's up? It looked like Alexis returned to normal!" Hassleberry cried.

"Yes. Her face seemed to show some life" Atticus murmured.

"What when did you get there?" Hassleberry asked.

"Jaden's going to lose if he doesn't do something. Then Saiou's curse will never get lifted." Chazz said worriedly.

"No this is Jaden. I'm sure he'll do something." Atticus said hopefully.

"You've really got me beat! You still have fire in you Alexis." Jaden said

"You'll get put on ice in the face of White Blizzard next turn." Alexis taunted coldly.

"I won't give up until the very end! My turn! Draw! Yes! Come on! My Neospacian! Flare Scarab!" Jaden yelled.

"What do you intend to do?" asked Alexis

"No matter how many scrubs you keep summoning, White Blizzard will eventually…" Alexis said.

"My monsters aren't scrubs. Its like I keep saying right? Watch carefully Alexis." Jaden interrupted

"It can't be…" Alexis said

"Let's go! Flare Scarab, Neos! Contact Fusion! Come out! Flare Neos!" Jaden yelled.

The two creatures fused together to create Flare Neos.

"Effect of Flare Neos. For each magic and trap card on the field. He gains 400 attack points! There are 3 magic or trap cards on the field. His attack points goes up to 3700!" Jaden shouted happily.

"Alexis!" Chazz cried.

"Now Jaden! Press On!" said Atticus

"Are you scared, Alexis? You aren't much at all!" Jaden smirked.

"What did you say?" asked Alexis angrily.

"Quite frankly, only the you being controlled by Saiou is kinda boring. Uncool, you know." Jaden teased.

"I'm boring…I'm uncool…Stop playing with me! You have no right to talk!" She hissed.

"Wow! That outburst!" "That's Alexis all right!" said Chazz in his lover boy eyes mode.

"That was truly scary!" said Hassleberry.

"Chazz… down boy…" said Syrus.

"All right! A spark is set in Alexis's fighting spirit! Go for it, Jaden." said Atticus

"Look, Alexis! Whether it be a white night or whatever, every night has it's daybreak! The sun will still climb high! So cut it out and open your eyes!" Jaden yelled.

"Impossible. Who I am now is the true me. There is no need for me to open my eyes!" Alexis shot back.

They both growled.

"Then you leave me to use force. Battle!" yelled Jaden.

"Come at me!" said Alexis fiercely.

"Flare Neos! Attack Blue Ice White Night's Dragon! Go! Flare Neos! Reach her! Everyone's fiery feelings!" Jaden yelled.

Everyone was waiting for the attack to go through.

"Set the Alexis in the ice free! Burn! Burst! Rush!" yelled Jaden

"Jaden this marks your monsters end. I activate my facedown card." She replied, eerily calm.

"Sorry Lex. I guess you've forgotten, but your White Night's Fort applies to both of us…meaning your trap card won't work." Jaden smirked.

"Too bad dork I'm not using a trap. I activate my quickplay magic card." said Alexis

Jaden gasped as did the others.

"Sacrifice of Pure Light!" Alexis yelled.

"Ahh! Damn, so what does it do exactly?" asked Jaden

"Shut up and I'll explain." Alexis answered coolly, giggling sweetly.

"With this card I choose 1 face up light monster on my side of the field and send it to the graveyard. So I'll choose my Blue Ice White Night's Dragon!" said Alexis proudly as her monster was sent to the graveyard in an explosion of white light.

"That's her best card why would she sacrifice that card, rather than her Snow Sprite." Atticus paused "Rrr…what is my sis planning?"

Jaden who had shielded his eyes from the intense light that was released from Blue Ice White Night Dragon's sacrifice slowly lowered his arm as the light faded to see Alexis smiling her hair blowing to the right from the intense explosion.

"Hehehe…Now I select 1 monster excluding a token monster on your side of the field with the same or less number of stars as my sacrificed light monster and destroy it, sending it directly to the graveyard. So say goodbye to your Elemental Hero Flare Neos." Alexis giggled cutely as suddenly Elemental Hero Flare Neos exploded in a burst of light…

Once again Jaden shielded his eyes from the explosion of light. When the light faded Elemental Hero Flare Neos was gone.

"No Flare Neos…" Jaden said saddened.

"Jaden its over. All of your moves have been sealed. Only one move remains. The move dictated by destiny." Alexis smiled innocently.

"Damn it…this wasn't supposed to happen…" Jaden growled.

"Ahh…damn… I…I…" Jaden began to sweat as he knew she had him beat, all he could do was hope that somehow he wouldn't be brainwashed…

She was right with both his field and hand dead empty, only one decision remained, one choice…

Still he couldn't end his turn.

He couldn't give up and give in to this White Alexis.

"Its over. She won." said Atticus sadly.

"It can't be over, Jaden can't lose…" said Syrus worriedly.

"Maybe he's coming up with a plan. A plan to save Alexis when this duel is over." added Syrus hopefully.

"It's impossible; he has no cards on the field or in his hands. The only cards that remain are the ones in his graveyard and deck." said Atticus forlornly, hating to admit the inevitable truth – Alexis had won the duel.

Chazz looked on worriedly. "Lexi..."

Alexis was becoming annoyed. "Enough." said Alexis sternly.

"…No. I won't give up." Jaden relented.

"I gotta do something" Jaden thought to himself.

"Jaden looks worried" said Hassleberry worried himself.

"Big Brother…" Syrus said worried as well.

Another minute passed.

"Jaden end your turn." She demanded as she had her hand on her hip frustrated with Jaden's attempts to avoid his obvious defeat.

"I...I'm thinking." replied Jaden.

She sighed.

Two more minutes passed.

He looked upon Alexis, the cold icy-sweet smile upon her face. He gazed upon her field that single Snow Sprite remaining.

Soon that card, that very card he hated the most of all her cards would be his ender.

"Enough! You've stared at me long enough." Alexis snapped.

Soon the other Society of Light members began to boo and yell "Hurry it up!" or "Make your move already!" as they were clearly annoyed with the Slifer.

Jaden nervously looked around the field.

Alexis looked on frustrated at his obvious stalling attempts.

He turned to look to his friends for advice for help…

"Jaden end your turn already, its obvious you can't play a card. You cannot resist destiny anymore, now end your turn!" She screamed.

"I…I…fine, know this Alexis, I may not have beaten you, but trust me someone somewhere will save you. You can count on it, and then you'll be your old self again. Free from Saiou's control." Jaden told her.

"This is who I am, the true me and I am who I have always been now please end your turn." said Alexis in a cold sweet tone.

"No that's not true Lex, you weren't always wearing white. You used to wear blue and have fun with me, Syrus, Hassleberry, Atticus your brother and sometimes even Chazz, don't you remember? Fight it Lex, please." begged Jaden desperately.

"Jaden nothing has changed except you and the others. I offered to let you join the Society of Light and bath in the lights warmth, but you rejected my offer and instead have sought to bring harm to the light and its followers. Now end your turn at once!" Alexis ordered.

"No!" said Jaden forcefully, still desperately stalling.

"Keep this up Jaden and you could get kicked out for stalling a duel!" Alexis spoke in a cold teasing voice.

He stared at Alexis who was smiling as he kept eyeing her up and down for at least another minute.

"Quit staring and end your turn dork!" snapped Alexis.

"You will be saved Alexis. I swear you'll be saved. I...I end my turn" said Jaden, finally giving into defeat.

"Finally. Draw!" she drew her card another Snow Sprite.

"I summon Snow Sprite in attack mode. Now my Snow Sprite attack Jaden directly." She commanded calmly, though she was inwardly dancing in joy over the fact that in a matter of moments, Jaden would be defeated and ushered into the light of truth…

A small cold beam of ice rushed towards Jaden, the beam struck and Jaden felt their cold sting. He fell to his knees letting out a small cry of pain, grasping his hand near his heart as his eyes shut tightly, while his body shook lightly as a cold feeling began running slowly through his entire body. He did not speak, all he did was squeeze his heart wincing in pain and shaking lightly. He had failed. Not only would Alexis remain trapped but he would soon join her. He wouldn't lose the ability to see his cards this time, no this time he'd lose his true inner essence. He could feel it…

Alexis smiled coldly. She could sense the darkness in Jaden wailing in pain and she loved it. "Game over Jaden..." She laughed sweetly.

To be continued…
