Hey peoples! I'm trying my hand on a new story that just popped in my weird head. This just seemed like an awsome idea, and listining to music helped me think of half of this fic. This is sorta going to be a song fic, except all the music is rock, you will know why as the story progresses. Well enjoy!

Chapter 1: The Secret
(Jaden's POV)
This doesn't feel right. Keeping a secret like this from my friends, a huge secret. How many times am I going to lie to lie to them? No, I can't tell them, as humans they won't understand. I'ts my sole duty is to guard the Earth, but what's the point if I cannot reveal my true nature? Who I really am.
I watch Syrus and Chummly chatting away about their certian "Card Crushes". I have mastered human behavior, but this was a bit too strange, they are cards, and yes I do see Duel Spirits, but there is a certian reason why, all of those in my world are able to see these spirits, just like animals and special humans can. My partner, Winged Kuriboh, has taught me many things about Duel Spirits, because he is one himself. While I haved lived on Earth, I have grown fond of this Duel Monsters Game, and became extremly good at it. That's why I joined Duel Acadamy, but I was put in the lowest of the domitaries, Slifer Red, but I don't mind.
"Jay, you alright?" asked my friend Syrus as he moved his hand in front of my face. "Yeah Sy, I'm fine. Don't worry about it." Liar! I'm such a Liar! I screamed in my head. I snaped back in reality to see I was in the Slifer Red cafeteria, with the food on my plate untouched. "You sure Jaden? It's unlike you not to eat, usually you'd scarf down your entire plate right when its on the table." said Chummly with worry in his eyes. "Oh, yeah... I was just daydreaming thats all." I replied. I looked behind my shoulder to see a spiky, black-haired teen with a black overcoat, Chazz.
"What the hell's wrong with him? Lose a duel slacker?" asked Chazz in his always annoying tone. In front of Chazz I'll act naive, but deep down inside, I really want to burn that basterd to ashes, but I can't let my anger control me, not ever. "I told you all you all that I'm perfectlly fine! Excuse me, I'm taking a walk." I got up from my seat, and left the cafeteria without looking back.
As I walked I thought of many things. How long will I be able to keep this secret? If I do reveal my secret will my friends accept me?
Ever since coming to this world, I could clearly understand human emotions, and sometimes I wish I didn't.
I don't know why, but the waves crashing down on the coast of the island always sounded soothing to me. I always love coming down to the beach to taste the salty sea air, but sometimes I wish that the Krabby would be here to blow bubbles along the setting sun, but alas, they do not belong in this world.
My other favorite spot on the island is the top of the volcano that rests in the center of the large island, but also I fear it, I'm afraid that my anger will overtake me, and cause the volcano to erupt. I pray that it will never happen.
Sometimes I still imagine I'm in my true form, the wind blowing at my mane, my tail flowing like clouds of smoke from an erupting volcano, my mask-like face always in its serious emotion. I almost feel all-powerful again.
Then suddenly, I heard a voice call back to me. "Jaden, there you are!" It was another dear friend of mine from the Obelisk Dorms, Alexis Rhodes. "Oh, hey there Lex." I said almost quiet. "I went over to your dorm, but you weren't there. I asked Syrus where you were, but he told me you got mad and stormed out of the cafeteria without touching your plate. What made you act like that?" Alexis said with a worried look.
"It's none of your buisness Alexis, just leave me alone!" I snapped. All Alexis did was back off an inch and said. "Why are you suddenly acting like a jerk? It's not like you to just yell in my face!" I was starting to get pissed now. "I'm just sick of people asking me the same question over, and over again!" my voice seemed to have gotten louder. I began to kick the sand beneith me hastely. "Well that doesn't mean yell at me for no reason!" she yelled. "SHUT THE FUCK UP ALEXIS, YOU DON'T TELL ME WHAT I CAN OR CANNOT DO!" I roared. Then I felt a quick smack against my face, Alexis had slapped me.
That was it, I was now overly pissed. I lowly growled as I felt the ground lightly shake under me. "J-Jaden, whats happening?" Alexis studdered in a confused and scared tone. As my growling gotten louder, the tremors had gotten stronger. Alexis then went down into fetial position with her hands over her head. I can feel my teeth grow back into fangs, and all I can see now is red. Then I heard what seemed like singing. The voice sounded... familiar.
I painted your room at midnight
So I'd know yesterday was over
I put all your books on the top shelf
Even the one with the
four-leaf clover
Man I'm getting older
The voice sounded so soothing... so melodic, but at the same time rough and powerful.
I took all your pictures
off the wall
Wrapped them in a
newspaper blanket
I haven't slept in
what seems like a century
And now I can
barely breathe
That voice... it can't be! She coulden't possibly be here on Earth as well! If she is then why is she here?
Just like a crow
chasing the butterfly
Dandilions lost in
the summer sky
When you and I
where getting high
as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just
a little too late
Then, the voice stoped singing. Have I just imagined it, or was it real? My anger had calmed slowly, and the tremors stoped as well. My fangs had become human teeth once again, and now I could see clearly. As I regained my sight, I noticed Alexis crouched down in front of me, and could hear her soft crying very clearly. I walked over and bent down beside her. What could I say now to comfort her, she was clearly now scared of me from me snapping at her, and the sudden earthquake. I then placed my hand on her warm back, rubbing gently to calm her.
"Lex, its okay now. The earthquake stoped, you can get up know." I said in comfort. She looked back at my face, to reveal the stream of tears falling down her cheecks. This is about the first time I have ever seen Alexis cry, she looked as scared as a baby Pichu who had lost it's way in a dark forest. "I'm sorry I yelled at you Lex. I got carried away." I said as I continued to rub her back. "I-Its f-fine Jaden, and I'm sorry I slapped you." she studderd weakly. "Do you mind if I took you back to your dorm Lex?" I asked. All she reacted with was a slight nod of her head. I picked her up bridal style, and left the beach, ignoring all the commotion about the recent tremors from passerby students. I'm still not sure if that voice belonged to the one I think it belongs to. Is she really on this very island as well? Then if she is, then I have a bad feeling someting terrible is about to happen.
Who is this "she" Jaden keeps refering to? Only time will tell. About my Warriors fic, I lost the rough draft to the first chapter, and now I have to work on it again! :( But don't worry peoples, I'll try to update as much as I can! The lyrics in the chapter were from the song The Crow and the Butterfy by Shinedown, if you never heard of this song well look it up on Youtube. And I'm asking you peoples to help submit ideas for songs and OC Pokemon for later chapters. The songs have to be rock though, and PLEASE no country songs! And must of you are probally thinkin Jaden sounds too OCC, why do you think I'm making him that way? Well I'll try to post new chapies for both stories. This is Herostar14 signing out! Please review!
