Chazz was walking through the corridors of Duel Academy. He was wearing his Obelisk Blue uniform. He was walking towards the Chancellor's office. He took a deep breath, he tried to be calm, but it was impossible. He opened the door and entered. There was Chancellor, sitting at his desk. And Alexis was standing in front of it. "Mr. Princeton." Chancellor says. "What are you doing here?"

"Chancellor, Alexis is not guilty, I went to the Abandoned dorm look for my friend, Atticus. I, not Alexis." He walked over to the room and stood beside her. She was staring at him, shocked. She knew that Chazz loves her, but that he give up the Duel Academy for her !? He is not normal! "Alexis is just a good friend, she was defending me. It's my fault, throw me out." He said firmly.

The Chancellor was suspiciously watching him. "If so," he said, and turned to the screen of his computer. There was turned on something like a camera. And there was Alexis."What's Miss Rhodes doing on this video by surveillance cameras from abandoned dorm? You're also in trouble, sir Princeton. But for now you go."

"No!" Chazz yelled. "If you want to throw her out, you must throw out and me."

"But she's the one who's guilty, she needs to be thrown out." Chancellor says.

"But she-" Chazz starts, but Alexis interrupted him. "Chazz, stop it." She turned back to the Chancellor. "It's my fault and I do not want you to punish him because he was a good friend."

"Very good." The Chancellor said. "Chazz, go, I'll handle this with Mrs. Rhodes."

Chazz sent last menacing look to the chancellor and turned his head toward Alexis. "Do not worry, just stay here. I'll handle this, and you're going to stay here. I promise. And The Chazz never breaks his promises!" He said firmly, but Alexis could not imagine how that was possible. But she knew that Chazz would do anything for her, but that was what was bothering her.

The next day, the classroom ...

Alexis was nervous, this is her last day at the Duel Academy, she could not keep track of what Crowler was speaking. She looked at Chazz, who was sitting close to her. All morning he was smiling and did not seem at all nervous, strange. If he had a plan, or he's bluffing or he does not care about her? Well, we will certainly find out soon enough. Then, suddenly, out of nowhere, all the lights went out, the door of the classroom opened wide, and from there the strong wind blew. All students immediately looked there. There was a black figure. But it was too dark to recognize anyone who he was. Then, when the lights came on, all the students opened their mouths and eyes when they saw who it was. Alexis recognized him, of course. He was tall and had broad shoulders. There he was standing none other than Seto Kaiba himself. All dropped an exclamation of surprise. He was wearing his famous white coat and his hands were crossed on his chest and on his left hand was duel disk.

"HA!?" Crowler cried. "Seto Kaiba!?"

"Yes." Kaiba said with his normal, slightly rude voice. "I know who I am." He said, and went deeper into the room. He seemed young, except for his face. His face was what tipped that he actually was 34 years old. (Chazz is 16 here) All students were still watching him. Around were whispering; "Is this real Seto Kaiba?" "What the world's best duelist is doing here?" "Is it fake?"

Kaiba stood before them. "Who is here Alexis Rhodes?" He asked. All students looked toward Alexis. She stood up. She had never been so nervous in all her life. But she had to keep a straight face. "I'm Alexis."

Kaiba smiled slightly. "Good, I heard you're going to be thrown out of my Academy. Well," he said, and turned on his duel disk. "Let's see what are really your skills." The whole classroom shocked. "I accept." Alexis said, and lowered down. She turned on her duel disk. Alexis firmly stood a few meters away from him. "Duel" They both yelled.

"I'll go first." Alexis said. "I summon, Etoile Cyber, (common, EARTH Warrior / Effect Monster, 4, 1200/1600) in defense mode."

2nd Turn Kaiba-4000

"Not bad," Kaiba said. "But not good enough. I summon, Worse Raider. (common, DARK Beast-Warrior / Normal Monster, 4, 1900/1200) In attack mode! And now, destroy her Etoile Cyber!" Worse Raider ran and destroyed her Etoile Cyber.

"I summon Luster Dragon (Common, WIND Dragon / Normal, 4, 1900/1600) in attack mode. And now, destroy her Cyber Gymnast" Luster Dragon destroyed Cyber Gymnast and Alexis lost 800 life points. "I am finishing my turn and set one card face down."

6th Turn Kaiba-2100

"Impressive. Maybe you worth to stay at the Academy. But one good turn is not enough! I summon Kaiser Sea Horse (Super Rare, LIGHT Sea Serpent / Effect Monster, 4, 1700/1650) But I will not attack yet."

"I activated trap card Call of the Haunted. I am returning from the graveyard Gemini Elf (Ultra Rare Earth Spellcaster / Normal Monster, 4, 1900/900) And now, destroy Kaiser Sea Horse!"

"Not so fast!" Kaiba yelled. "I've activated my trap Ring of Destruction!"

"Oh no!"

"Oh yes!" Ring came around Gemini Elf's neck and destroyed it.

Alexis muttered something under her breath. "I put two cards face down and that's it."

Alexis wonder why he did not attack her. But she had to take a chance. "Cyber Prima! Destroy Vampire Lord!" It destroyed the Vampire Lord, but he suddenly appeared again. "How?" Alexis asked herself.

"Do not you know anything about vampires? They are immortal, you cann't so easily destroy someone who has already been destroyed." He sneered. "And I'm losing just 100 life points.

12th Turn Kaiba-1500

Kaiba smiled evil. "First, I activate Mystical Space Typhoon! That destroys your two face down cards."

"Oh no."

"I'm not even close to over. Now, I will sacrifice Kaiser Sea Horse and Vampire Lord."

"What?" Alexis'es eyes shine with fear.

"So I can summon this! Blue-Eyes White Dragon!" The whole room stared at one of the rarest monsters in the world. "Be hold, my Graet beast!" Kaiba yelled and pointed his hand in Alexis. All in the classroom went blind from a large light. When the light disappeared, they saw Alexis as she kneels on the floor. After several moments she stood up. "I am sorry that I lost." She said. "But it was a good duel. I'll never forget this."

"You're a good duelist." Kaiba said. "So, you're staying at the academy."

"Really?!" Alexis shouted.

"I just said it." Kaiba said and turned to leave when a voice hailed him. "Hey, Mr. Kaiba!" Jaden shouted. "Can I duel you?"

"I have not had the time to." Kaiba said, not looking at him.

"Ooohhh, stay!" Someone yelled. Soon everyone in the classroom joined him. "St-ayyy! St-ayyy! St-ayy!"

Kaiba could not resist. He got used to people adore him, but these are his students at his academy. "That would be great." Crowler said. "You can teach and talk about how awesome you are."

"I'll think about it." Kaiba said. "I'll stay in my villa on the other side of the island." He turned and walked away. Alexis was standing a few seconds, then she remembered Chazz. How he persuaded Seto Kaiba to come and duel her? In any case, she needs to thank him. But Chazz was no longer at his place, he went through the same door that passed Kaiba. She ran toward him. After a few minutes, she finally found him in the yard. But he was not alone, he was talking to Kaiba. Alexis hid behind a tree. "... Thank you for allowing Alexis to stay." Chazz said.

"She deserved it. She's a good duelist." Kaiba replied.

"Anyway thank you for coming, she ... She means a lot to me." Chazz said honestly.

"Yeah, I kinda figured that." Chazz looked down, kind of sad. "You want me to stay, do not you?" Kaiba asked. Chazz just nodded, still not looking at him. "Okay, I'll stay." Kaiba relented.

"Really ?!" Chazz suddenly looked up, he was very happy. "But Kaiba Corpor-"

"Hey, you're a lot more important than Kaiba Corporation." Kaiba said, smiling. Chazz hugged him. "It's just ..." he began. Alexis wondered whether he was crying. "... I so missed you, Dad."

"Yes, I know." Kaiba said and let his grip around him. "I have to go now, tomorrow we can hang out after your classes."

"Yes, that would be great!" Chazz exclaimed. "Thanks, Dad. See you later!" Alexis waited for Kaiba to went, and when she was certain that he will not hear, she ran for the Chazz. "Chazz Princeton! What the hell!?"Chazz quickly turned. Alexis ran to him. "Oh, hey, Lex."

"Don't you to me, 'Oh, hey, Lex'!" She yelled.

"Ha?"

"Do not play dumb. You just called Seto Kaiba 'Dad'. And you embraced him. You. And now, talk."

"Lexi, I will explain everything to you, can you first sit down?"

As the bench was just a few meters away, Alexis shrugged and the two of them sat down. "Okay, explain to me."

Chazz sighed. "That's true, he's my dad."

"What?!" She yelled.

"Well didn't you mean it?"

"Well, I did. But why did not you ever tell anybody?"

"I did not think it was necessary."

"But ... I thought I am your best friend."

"You know you are Lexi." He said quickly, as if he did not have to think about the answer.

"Wait, why your last name is Princeton?"

"Because if people at the academy knew that he is my dad, they would be afraid of me and respect me."

"But they're doing it. And you love it."

"Yes, but I want them to do it because of myself, not because of who my dad is."

"Okay, I somehow can understand it." She said, but she sounded somewhat disappointed.

"I'm sorry, okay?"

"It's not just 'okay'. You're not supposed to lie. At least not to me."

Ok, I will no longer lie. I promise. "

"And ... How's home? Do you live in the manor? Does it have 60 floors? Can you enter into Kaiba Corporation? Do you have pool? Do you have room full decks? Do you have Duel arena? can you free enter into Kaibaland? Are you more on mom or dad? Do you have yacht? Is the island named after you? Are your mom and dad divorced? Do you have jet-pack? can you use it? Does your mother call you 'Chazzy'? Do you have a pet there?

"My mom likes to call it palace, no, yes, yes, maybe, yes, yes, both of them, yes, no yet, no yes, perhaps, yes, no."

"And ... Is your mother also duelist?"

"Yes. You certainly heard of her, Mai Kaiba. But you surely know her as 'Mai Valentine'."

"Of course I did. She was in the Battle City finals, is not it?"

"Yes. In fact, and now she often goes to tournaments, about 2-3 times in two months."

"Just so you know, if my parents are Seto Kaiba and Mai Valentine, I would boast myself."

"Well I do not do it."

"Well, I'm glad that you admitted it to me. BTW, will you go home for the holidays next week?"

"HA! That's really true!" they heard a voice behind them. There were standing Jaden, Syrus, Bastion, Atticus and Zane. Of course, Jaden was one who shouted.

"Jaden!" Syrus yelled. "We should stay hidden until they finish talking."

"It seemed as if they had finished." Jaden said.

"You fool!" Chazz yelled. "Have you ever heard of privacy ?!"

"Of course, dude." Jaden smiled widely. "It's the awesome!" He went to Chazz and tried to hug him, but of course that he just could not. "How many times do I have to tell you ?! without hugging !"

"Yes, yes, wait, Alexis was mentioning some holidays next week." All had a stupid look on their faces. Jade wondered why he never knows what it is about. "This is a free week because next week Domino maintains re Battle City. Thatstudents can go there and look. Of course, those who can get there." Atticus explains. "I already know how I'll get there." He added.

"How?" Syrus asked.

"I have a relationship."

"What relationship?"

"My good friend Chazzy." Atticus smiled.

"I do not remember that I called you." Chazz said suspicious.

"Oh, then ... Can I go with you?" Atticus asked using sweet eyes.

"Of course, dude." Chazz even smiled a little.

"Can you take us?" Jaden asked. "Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please!"

"Under one condition." Chazz said.

"What's that?"

"Shut up! If you once again say 'please' and I will throw you out of the helicopter!"

"Super!" Jaden yelled.

"Zane," Syrus asked. "Will you go?"

"I am not for some trips." He answered.

"But Zane," Alexis said. "Kaiba Corporation created Duel Disks. And Duel Arenas. You can see there the first Duel Disk."

"Wait," Chazz said. "I first have to call Dad and ask can you go." He took out his cell phone and dialed a number. All gathered around him. There was ringing for a few seconds. "Hey, Dad." Chazz greets.

"Hey, Chazz. Why are you calling?"

"I've been thinking. Can a few of my... friends go with us?"

"Yeah ... I guess. Should I call the blimp or helicopter?"

Chazz briefly looked at his 'friends'. "Blimp."

"Okay. I now have to go."

"Hi."

"Hi."

"Yay!" Jaden exclaimed. "We're going to Domino City!" Please review
