so this is another story me and jxafan2000 wrote on writing .com. only we haven't finished it. so it'll be more adventurous than most of my things. hope you enjoy.
"Mommy, daddy, do you have to go?" a young boy asked.
"Don't worry Jaden," a man said. "We'll be back soon."
"Midori will take good care of you," his mother said.
The next day, Jaden found out the flight his parents were on disappeared, their fate unknown.
"No! Mommy! Daddy!"
WHACK
"Huh, who, what, where?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Yuki," the teacher said in a sarcastic tone. "Hope I wasn't interrupting your nap time. You have a test tomorrow, I hope you've been studying."
Jaden groaned, earning laughs from his classmates. Soon the bell rang, signalling the end of school.
"Oh come on Alexis, I really need your help to study or I could be held back and have to endure his boring lectures again next year," Jaden said on his knees in front of the schools unofficial idol that most of the boys wish were their girlfriend because of her looks along with her intelligence.
"Fine, but first you have to pass a test for me," Alexis said as she reached into her bag pulling a Rubix cube from her back pack throwing it to the two toned brunette. "Solve that in under three minuets or find another to tutor you."
"You got a deal Lex," said Jaden as Alexis looked at her watch telling Jaden to start as he gets to work on the cube moving it in a blur of his hands. "Done," said Jaden at the 2 minuet and 40 second mark when he showed the solved puzzle to Alexis making her smile before taking the cube back as they head off to Jaden's home to help him study for the test with the excited Jaden following at her side.
"I can't believe you were able to solve that so fast," Alexis said. "It usually takes me at least four and a half minutes."
"Yeah. A couple years ago, I met this guy who was really good at puzzles. We had a rubix solving contest. No matter what I just couldn't beat him. And he even let me peel off the stickers and stick them on once. I guess I learned how to work it."
"I bet. Now if only you applied those skills to school."
As Alexis laughed and Jaden pouted, things were happening.
"Ahhh!" shouted an old man as he was blown away. A box with cards spilled out as a man walked up to him, picking some of the cards up. "Those won't let you use them."
"Oh, I wouldn't be so sure about that," the cloaked person said dark energy covering the cards before pulling one out. "Rise Ancient Gear Golem!"
A giant mechanical warrior appeared behind the man.
"No! Ancient Gear Golem, why?"
"Because you are weak and creature such as this deserves a strong master. Destroy your former master!"
The giant thrust its fist at him, and he was scared.
"Cyber Barrier Dragon, defend!" a voice said as a mechanical dragon with a satelite dish on it's head created an energy barrier that made a dust cloud as the fist made contact.
"Zane!"
Out walked a man with blue hair and a blue trenchcoat.
"You know, it's a good thing I graduated from school and went shopping for groceries for me and my brother. Why'd your golem attack you?"
"That person took my cards and used some power to twist them."
"That's not good. We need to get them back. Defeating your golem should fix them."
"I hope so."
Meanwhile, Jaden was focusing on what Alexis was trying to drill into his head for the test tomorrow but he couldn't shake this sense that something was about to change his life and it had something to do with his parent's disappearance. Suddenly the doorbell rang as Jaden excused himself from the room to answer the door.
"Hey Mr. Taylor, how's the wife doing?"
"Serenity is doing fine Jaden, she is just wondering when her brother is finally gonna ask Mai to marry him. By the way this was in the mail for you and I need you to sign for it," the mailman Tristan said as Jaden signed before getting handed a package and closing the door behind him.
Looking it over, Jaden wonders who sent the package as he set it on the table in front of him before nearly passing out in shock when he sees the name on the top corner.
"Mom, Dad? Why did they send this to me?" asked Jaden out loud before ripping the paper around the item as he notices a mahogany wood box.
Jaden opened the box, seeing another box in it, but above that was a note.
"What's wrong with getting a package from your parents?" Alexis asked.
"My parents have been missing for 10 years," Jaden said. Alexis gasped at that. Jaden opened the note, seeing something familiar. "It's really them."
Alexis looked seeing the first line, confused.
"'Jaybird'?"
"My mom's nickname for me. I haven't heard it in so long."
Jaden started reading the note.
'Jaybird, I know it's been years since you last saw us and you're probably wondering why we're contacting you. It's a long story I don't have time or paper space to write.' "Mom's humor." 'Anyway, you'll need what's in the box. Don't let it fall into the wrong hands. I love you, my little Jaybird. Mom.'
Jaden's eyes couldn't stop watering. Seeing his mother's handwriting, seeing his mom's nickname for him. Jaden opened the box that was in the box, and...
BRRIIIING
Alexis's cell phone started ringing as Alexis looked over at Jaden.
"Sorry Jaden, I need to take this."Alexis left Jaden alone with the package from his parents where she answered it as she said, "Yes."
"Cyber Angel, we have reports of Antique getting attacked as one of his strongest monsters getting taken after it was corrupted . There is also a build up of Ener-D near your location, so we advice using caution when dealing with this enemy if your are targeted or find them."
"Understood, but I am currently with a civilian and may have to take his safety in consideration."
"Roger that, and good luck Cyber Angel."
Alexis hung up the phone, only to hear a crash and run out to see Ancient Gear Golem standing above a hole in the wall, staring at Jaden.
"The cards, give them to me!" a figure said on the Golem's shoulder.
"What are you talking about?" Jaden asked.
"Don't play coy with me, child."
"Jaden, we gotta get out of here!" Alexis said as they ran out.
"Get them!" The golem moved but started shaking. "What? Are you still fighting my power? Whatever, my minions should be more than enough for them."
"What the heck is going on? Who was that? And why was he on top of that giant robot?"
"No time to explain! You need to get to Zane Truesdale."
"Last year's valedictorian? Why?"
"Just do it."
As they ran however, green creatures with horns on their heads appeared. Then two men in cloaks grabbed Alexis.
"Alexis!"
"I'll be fine! Get to Zane!"
Jaden knew he had to run, but he didn't wanna leave Alexis when he knows she's in trouble.
"I'm not leaving you behind," said Jaden as he turns to face the two guys holding Alexis by her arms restraining her.
Suddenly Jaden has a vision of multiple monsters but they all seem humanoid but they also looked like super heroes from the comic books Jaden use to read as a kid.
Suddenly a phrase appears in Jaden's mind as one of the cards glow in the box from Jaden's pocket.
"Spread your wings of Justice for all before me, Avian!"
The two holding Alexis were laughing as they were thinking the boy couldn't summon a monster without a duel disk on his wrist, but a winged man with a mostly green suit with a matching helmet with talons near his hands and feet appears in front of Jaden shocking them that Alexis can get away as Avian swipes at the two with his claws.
"Get 'em Feral Imp!" one of the guys said as the green monster charged at them.
"Don't worry, Alexis I'll protect you," Jaden said. "I think."
"Appreciate the gesture, but I'm not exactly defenseless," Alexis said, pressing a button on her watch. Then a strange device appeared on her wrist(AN: the duel academy duel disk. the silver version). She pulled a card from the deck in it. "Let's dance Etoile Cyber!"
As she said this, a monster with a red jumpsuit appeared.
"Whoa."
"Yeah. Now, attack, Etoile Cyber!"
And attack the monster did, destroying the green creatures and knocking the people out.
"Okay, no mind explaining?"
"Still not the time. We gotta find Zane!"
So they rushed down the street. Jaden ran beside Alexis trying to get to the Trusdale residence with their monsters in front of them, however as they turn down an alleyway a group of more cloaked figures appeared with more monsters (1). Jaden suddenly had another vision this time with a female monster wearing red fighting side by side with Avian with perfect unison as they took care of a group of monsters that had them greatly out numbered.
"Burn for Retribution, Burstinatrix!" said Jaden as said a red clad female with ashen hair appeared next to Avian as the two looked at each other before nodding their heads. The other group had their monsters attack as Avian and Burstinatrix worked like a well oiled machine taking out monsters left and right.
As Alexis took out the Beaver Soldiers, a loud thud was heard as they saw Ancient Gear Golem appear.
"Come on! How is it we can't hear it until it's this close? The thing's gigantic!"
"That Duel Monster doesn't even belong to him. He stole it. Etoile Cyber go!"
Etoile Cyber rushed the monster, only to get swatted like a fly before glowing and fading into Alexis.
"Your monsters can't defeat the golem!"
Jaden and Alexis growled. Suddenly Jaden got another vision of Burstinatrix and Avian in a vortex. A silouette in the middle. He rushed forward.
"Jaden no! You can't beat him!"
"I think I got a way! Winged hero with the power of wind! Heroine of the flame! Combine your powers to create a new hero! Come forth with your dragon fire, Flame Wingman!"
Everyone gasped at the new being, green with black, and it's right hand a dragon's head. It grabbed Jaden with its left hand and lifted him into the air.
"Go! Skydive Scorcher!"
The monster threw Jaden at the man, punching him off as the monster engulfed itself in flames, diving toward the monster. Ancient Gear Golem thrust its fist to counter, but Flame Wingman went right through, destroying the monster. Dark energy emerged from the card before bursting off and flying to its true owner.
"Grr! This is not over!" the figure said before disappearing.
"Jaden, that was amazing!"
"Yeah, I..." Jaden started to say but tripped and started to fall. Luckily Flame Wingman caught him and flew down to Alexis as she grabbed him and Flame Wingman disappeared.
Alexis looked at him, amazed.
Meanwhile the figure that attacked was in a word of pure darkness as a shadowy figure appeared.
"Not only do you fail to secure the cards of the Supreme King, but you lose the Golem to a child without a duel disk?" a shadowy figure said.
"I apologize master. I do not understand myself, but without a duel disk, he summoned two monsters and even fused them into something powerful enough to defeat it in one shot. His power was unreal. It was like the cards were made for him."
"Yes. Perhaps we should see about recruiting him. What was his name?"
"I think it was Jaden something. Yuki! Jaden Yuki."
This made his boss stiffen.
"Yuki? Did you say Yuki?"
"Yes."
"So they've finally surfaced, huh? This will be fun."

BEEP BEEP BEEP
This was the first thing that Jaden heard as he slowly started to come to showing him in a white room with several medical machines hooked up to his body as he appeared in a hospital of some kind, just not any hospital he has ever been in. The room was very basic with an adjourning bathroom near the door leading out of the room. Before he could get a better look around the room, the door opened and Alexis walked in wearing some new clothes(2) with two trays of food.
"Oh good, your awake and I figured you would be hungry. Now eat up and I will try to answer your questions afterwards," said Alexis as she placed the trays in front of Jaden and with his stomach growling started eating at a fast pace quickly devouring the food.
Letting out a loud belch, Jaden pats his fattening belly in joy as Alexis smirked.
"Well thanks for the food, but what is going on Alexis?"
"What I am about to tell you doesn't leave this building. There is a war going on between the forces of good and evil, you just got caught up in the fight and was lucky to come out in one piece. Nice job by the way for a rookie," said Alexis with a smirk on her face as Jaden rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment. This is the Academy, here we train to fight the forces of evil who would use our cards to conquer the world or turn those who drop out to join their ranks. We are... Guardians eXtreme, and because of your efforts, you've been selected to join."
Jaden had only one word.
"Whoa."
