Instead of being a Slifer for his first year, Syrus is going to be a Ra.

SMASH!!!!!!!!!!
The dorm head of Ra Yellow, Professor Sartyr (spelling?), awoke from a deep, snoring sleep in a start. "What's going on?!" He yelled. He leapt out of bed, and ran down the corridors of his dorm, trying not to wake his students. He screeched to a halt in front of the trophy case in the front hall.
Shattered glass lay on the floor, and the trophies, pictures, and ribbons were scattered everywhere.
"Who could have done this?" The professor looked horrified. Students began to poke their heads out of their rooms, and wander down to where the destruction was.
"What happened, Professor Sartyr?" Bastion and Syrus came over.
"Someone has smashed the trophy case." He flipped open a cell phone, and informed maintenance that there was broken glass in the Ra dorm that needed to be cleaned up. "Chancellor Sheppard will take care of finding the culprit in the morning. Everyone please return to your rooms."
"I wonder who did this?" Bastion said to Syrus as they walked back down the hall. Syrus didn't reply; he looked deep in thought. "Syrus, are you in there?"
"Yeah, I was just thinking."
"I see. Well, goodnight, then." Bastion walked back into his room.
"Goodnight." Syrus closed the door to his room and climbed into bed, but didn't fall asleep for a long time.

"Someone wrecked the trophy case? Why would they do a stupid thing like that?" Jaden and Syrus were lying on their backs near the cliffs, watching the clouds float by.
"I don't know. Maybe they were getting kicked out." Syrus didn't feel like talking about it. Every time the subject came up, he felt all hot and worried. "Do you want to go to the Ra cafeteria for lunch? We're having pizza."
Good food, well, any food, was enough to change Jaden's mind in an instant. "Let's go! I'll race you!" He took off running, laughing all the way.
"Jaden, wait up! You can't even get in there without me!" Syrus ran after his friend, cursing his short legs the entire way.

Later on that night, a lone figure was standing out by the lighthouse, looking intently through the fog. Yep, it was the one and only…Seto Kaiba!
Kidding.
It was actually Zane Truesdale, the big man on campus, and Syrus's older brother (not to mention the cause of most of his anxiety problems, but that's a story unto itself).
He glared out at the fog, as if his gaze would cause the clouds to part and let him see the ocean he constantly stared at.
"What's up, Zane?" It was Atticus, out to see where his best friend had gotten to. "Can't sleep?"
"No. I was thinking about the vandalism in the Ra dorm."
Atticus touched Zane's shoulder in a friendly way (they do not love each other, not in this story), something only he could get away with. "It's probably nothing. Just some ruffian kids pulling a prank that went a little too far. You have to learn to relax a little."
"I am relaxed. I just think that this is a little out of the blue. Ra students are pretty mild; and it happened late at night, so it could have only been one of them."
"Zane, it's 10:02 PM. Too late for heaving thinking. Let's go back." Zane sighed a bit, and walked past him, heading up towards the dorms. Atticus followed, still yapping away. "I should really teach you how to surf."
Zane's eyebrow twitched in annoyance. Atticus was his best friend, but he got a little aggravating sometimes. "For the umpteenth time, no." Atticus pouted for a second, then brightened.
"You're right; it's kind of late for that. We can start tomorrow!" Zane chased his friend all the way back to the Obelisk dorm, an act very unusual for him.

Syrus laid his head down on his pillow, almost afraid to go to sleep. What if something happens again? He pulled out his PDA and dialled Jaden's number. "Jay?"
"Yeah?" Jaden yawned.
"Sorry, did I wake you?" Syrus felt bad for bugging Jaden with his troubles, especially so late at night.
"Only by a little bit. What's on your mind?"
"I was just thinking about the vandalism. What if the dorm gets wrecked again?"
"I think you're safe, Sy. The crazy doing it will probably get caught sooner or later. You should get some sleep; you have a test tomorrow, right?"
Syrus brightened a little. "Yeah, I do. Night, Jay."
"Night."
Syrus fell down into the sheets, going over the test subjects in his mind. If he did very well on the test, it would be very likely that he could advance to the lower ranks of Obelisk Blue, a prize that he wanted very much. I know everything on the test; I can pass it. Zane will be so proud…
Syrus yawned, and drifted off into sleep.
