Duel Academy, winter year 2018

Winter had arrived on Duel Academy, and the students just finished their first semester.

"Can't believe it's winter already." Tourey Shantori of the Ra dorm said to Keisha and Kyle, his twin friends while smiling.

2 year had passed since Tourey re-opened the door of darkness by accident; he is now 13 years old. His previously short white hair now reached the middle of his back, he developed a little (umm...) muscles and intelligence, his gray eyes as serious as ever.

Chibi Partner, what are you smiling at? the young boy's yami questioned next to him. She looked like a 19-year-old young woman, with the same white hair, but tied neatly in low pigtails. Instead of seriousness, her gray eyes had a naughty look. Her original name is Ryyn Samehada, but her male partner calls her My Half.

"Nothing, My Half." Tourey had a giant sweatdrop on his head. "I'm just happy that holiday will come soon. Can't wait for the last 2 hours."

SPONGEBOB STYLE: 2 HOURS LATER...

"School holiday starts now. You can go home." the intercom spoke.

All the students tossed their books into the air and rushed to their dorms to pack and go home.

"See? I told you!" Tourey had a large grin.

Are you going to participate THAT project? Ryyn asked with confusion.

"Of course I will."

SPONGEBOB STYLE: UHH...

,ø¤º°º¤ø,

The Shantori Siblings: Kurrou, Minna, Ume, Sasuke, Mariposa "Maynard", Ashton, & Tourey were already in their tree house, chatting.

"How's life in Duel Academy?" Kurrou, the eldest asked.

As the youngest, Tourey took a deep breath and answered: "Normally fine, except there's a mean guy named Ryder who bullies me everyday."

Minna, the first lady and second eldest, questioned: "What did he do to you?"

"He called me weak and he would hit me everyday."

"Jesus..." Maynard's soft face showed concern. "Mr. Jaden wouldn't be happy about this."

"No need to worry. I beat him through a deck out victory."

Ashton spurted his orange juice at Sasuke's face. Let's just say a fight would have ensued if Mrs. Shantori didn't call out "Who wants chocolate popcorn?" In her hands there was a bowl brimming with the promised popcorn, fresh and luscious. The siblings immediately devoured the popcorn while their mother watched them, being grateful to have a lovely family.

On the other hand however, Ryyn and Yami Bakura were having sort-of-philosophical conversations in the Shadow Realm, whch is also know as the Underworld or Hell.

"So, is your hikari hurt?" the ex-thief asked with his British accent.

"Nope. He's fine." Ryyn replied.

"How simply horrible."

"Would you stop being an asshole for once?!" Ryyn's gray eyes glared at Bakura's brown eyes. Rivals for a very long time, neither of them wants to surrender to another. Bakura thought hard of a comeback. The little girl is winning as always.

"You know my past, don't you?" Bakura used his final defense.

Ryyn's lips let out a hearty chuckle. "Just because you have a dark past doesn't mean you can oppose us, DOUCHEBAG King Bakura. At least I still feel a little remorse after killing someone, unlike you. No wonder that Being of Silence can defeat you."

"Don't you dare mention that damned title, Ryyn." Bakura was triggered now. "Being of Bullshit."

Ryyn slapped Bakura's bottom twice before leaving. "On of you will use that project to steal their souls, ain't I right? Sorry, not gonna happen."
