Alexis' Demotion
Chapter 1
Co-Writer GreyKing46
We do not own these Yu-Gi-Oh characters.
Duel Academy. Home of future duelling legends. One of the five main schools of Duelling around the world and home to the three dorms: Obelisk Blue, the grandest of the three collective dorms; which was so grand that there had to be two dorms just to separate the boys and girls.
Ra Yellow, the middle ground, humble yet better than the lowest dorm; the place many wanted to get to approach the Top Tier dorm.
And finally: Slifer Red. The shack of the island. No literally, a shack. Where the Obelisk dorms were castles, Ra's dorm was like a building apartment, Slifer was barely two stories tall with the obvious entropy of the lack of repair the school showed.
This is the caste system probably made by Seto Kaiba as quiet revenge at Yugi Muto.
But right now, we need to get to the main campus, where we're in the middle of a lesson with the students and one of the teachers: Professor Crowler.
Crowler was a tall, lanky man with blonde hair and pink lipstick of all things. His outfit consists of the a more regal variation on the standard Obelisk Blue uniform, complete with gold trimmings and ruffled pink collar, shoulders, upper chest, and sleeves. His blonde hair is sectioned in two layers, with the layer furthest from his face tightly-bound in a ponytail, and he also wears crescent-shaped earrings.
"Now then everyone...Well, everyone who matters. What can you tell me about these strategies and how they don't work?" Professor Crowler asked
"How about you?" he smirked, looking directly at a random Slifer
"M-Me?" The Slifer asked
"Yes. What do YOU think about these strategies and HOW they don't work." Crowler spoke almost domineering
"W-well I...I-I think-" The Slifer answered, feeling put on the spot and shaking
"Come on Slifer, don't you know what a Burn strategy is? Or a stall strategy?" he mocked
"N-No...I...I-"
"Sit down and shut up." Crowler answered. "You're embarrassing your already embarrassing dorm."
The Obelisk's and some of the Ra's began to laugh, Crowler grinning "What about you?" he asked another Slifer
"Me?"A blue haired Slifer asked with a gulp.
"Yes...What about YOU?" Crowler asked almost darkly.
The blue haired Slifer was called Syrus and he was shaking, racking his brain for the answer only to come up with blanks
"I-I...I don't-" Syrus stuttered
"As I thought. EVERYTHING your brother isn't." Crowler answered.
...
A soft slam filled the room as a blonde bombshell of a girl stood tall
"Hmm? Oh Alexis." Professor Crowler spoke, looking at the girl.
She was wearing the Obelisk Blue jacket and skirt; blonde hair and had D-Cup breasts, tall and beautiful.
"Professor Crowler..." Alexis spoke, containing her anger at her teacher. "A Burn Strategy involves using effect damage to reduce your opponents life points quickly. A stall strategy, also known as a mill strategy, revolves around reducing your opponents deck so they lose by having no cards to draw." she explained simply, looking very angry
"Excellent. As expected of one of my Obelisks." Professor Crowler smiled, clapped and praised Alexis' performance.
"And, professor, if Slifer's are having as much trouble as you SAY they are..." Alexis said, holding back her clearly visible anger "... then MAYBE you should assign TUTORS like a REAL teacher!"
Crowler flinched at that, feeling emasculated and told off by one of his students.
The class cheered happily, Crowler snarling and biting into his pink handkerchief
"Way to go, Lex." A voice spoke, giving a thumbs up to her.
This boy was a Slifer, brown hair with brown eyes, this was Jaden Yuki. One of Slifer's most experienced duellists.
He was our hero, the best first year duellist of the school and Crowler's most hated student
... And Crowler was now pissed
'Betraying me, Ms Rhodes? I'll make you PAY!' Crowler thought as he bit into his pink handkerchief.
'NO ONE embarrasses Doctor Vellian Crowler!'
*Time skip*
It was time for the school exams, the students were nervous as they tried their best working on the tests but still anxious.
Most were nervous, all but a select few who either did not care or had full confidence in their skill and knowledge
Unfortunately one professor was making it so one student would not get what she deserved
Crowler was in his office late at night, the lights off. Using his deputy chancellor status he had accessed the students grades... And he was editing like crazy
"That girl needs to learn some respect, she needs to be punished!" Crowler growled as he those away, Alexis' profile on his screen... And the score was going down and down and down
Soon the result answers for Alexis were down...To a measly zero out of a hundred.
Crowler had sabotaged Alexis' tests to the lowest score in the school.
Well, tied last. With Jaden... Because Jaden wasn't the best with written tests
"There, Ms Rhodes...Enjoy your placement in Slacker Red." Crowler smiled darkly
Oh, he just had to wait for the meeting next month. He would win this, that girl would be punished
"Heh, heh, heh...Ha, ha, ha...MWAH-HA-HA-HA!" Crowler laughed evilly...Until he began to choke on a fly
*the next week*
We cut to the teachers in the Teacher's Lounge. Talking among themselves as the results of their students came in.
They were being pleasant towards each other, except for Crowler, who was smirking to himself, claiming that he heard a funny joke earlier.
The others were shocked however
"Is...Is this real? It can't be right." Nurse Fontaine commented
"It appears it is." Banner said in equal shock
"It appears... Ms Rhodes must be demoted." Sheppard said sadly, shocking everyone
"But...She's one of THE smartest students here." Nurse Fontaine answered.
"I know...But these results don't lie." Chancellor Sheppard frowned
"We've never had a female student in anything but Obelisk before." The Ra yellow added
"Well...She'll be the first." Chancellor Sheppard frowned
"What're we going to do?" Professor Banner asked
"... She will go to Slifer."
'I kinda got that.' Banner thought and sighed. "Very well. I'll set her up a room in the dorm."
Sheppard nodded, stamping the paper and sealing Alexis' fate
*With the students*
Alexis shuddered in confusion like someone was talking about her.
"Are you okay, Alexis?" Mindy asked
"Just had some trouble." She nodded
"Well...Okay." Mindy answered as they headed to the Academy to get their results.
They all arrived at the big audience hall
Every student looked at their results at their respective dorms.
But the school was shocked seeing the tied for last place score
"Jaden and..." Jasmine, one of Alexis' friends spoke in shock
"Me?" Alexis gasped, feeling like a train had just punched her in the gut. "I'm...tied last?"
"And you're to be demoted." Mindy frowned.
"Okay, no way that's right!" Jasmine frowned
Each of the students, most prominently the Obelisks were shocked...Alexis, one of the smartest and most intelligent students at the campus; HOW could she fail her exams?
... And then some of the 'bitchy' girls began to laugh
"Oh, how the mighty have fallen." The girl spoke with a high and mighty voice.
The girls began to laugh and mock Alexis, the blonde glaring coldly
"Just ignore her. She's a bitch." Jasmine frowned
"Hey, back off." A familiar powerful voice yelled
"Huh?" Alexis heard the voice and turned to see the source.
It was Jaden
"Jaden..." Alexis blinked and felt a small smile crawl on her face.
"Seriously?" Jaden asked the girl. "You're a total git for doing this."
"Oh back off Slifer Slacker." The lead bitch laughed
"No, I won't. NO-ONE insults my friends!" Jaden answered
"Jaden, it's fine." Alexis smiled
"I...Alright..." Jaden sighed, looking at her. "Sorry, Lex."
She nodded, putting her hand onto his shoulder
"I guess I'm coming to join Slifer." She answered
And she looked really sad
Soon Professor Banner came through the crowd, asking for Alexis, to get her fitted with her new uniform.
The two followed Banner, arriving into a back store room
"Now, here we go." Professor Banner spoke, finding a spare Slifer uniform for her.
He held up the white and red Slifer version of the blouse/jacket Alexis normally wore alongside the red skirt, gloves and boots
"Oh...Okay. I guess, it's not THAT much different." Alexis spoke, taking the uniform
"That's good, isn't it?" Jaden asked
"Yeah. It's good." She nodded
"Yeah, it looks good in you." He smiled
"Ha, ha...Alright. I better get changed." Alexis answered
"I'll also have to get you a dorm room. Unfortunately, we don't have a separate room for you, so you'll have to bunk with someone." Professor Banner added while apologising. "We will sort this out at the dorm however."
"I understand, Professor." Alexis answered with a nod.
"Okay." Jaden nodded
*Time skip*
Alexis had now gotten out of her Obelisk Blue uniform, handed it over and was now wearing her Slifer Red uniform. It was surprisingly comfortable.
"Well...Okay." She spoke as she dusted herself off.
"... Wow." Jaden blinked, having met Alexis use his room to change
"Well? How do I pull off the "Slifer Look"?" Alexis joked lightly
"It... Real good." Jaden nodded, getting over his shock
"Thanks." She smiled, having her stuff by her side. "Now...Which room is mine and my bunk-mates?"
"We need to go down to the food hall." Jaden shrugged
"Well, alright." She answered, following Jaden. "So...Where is it?"
"Through here." Jaden answered
The two went down the stairs outside the Slifer Dorm, walking off and opening a screen door... Revealing a super small hall with a handful of two seat tables
"This is the "food hall"?" Alexis blinked in shock
"Yep." Jaden nodded
"I... It's tiny." She frowned "You had to live with this?! That's unfair!"
"It is what it is." Jaden answered.
That was when the rest of the Dorm and Banner walked in, most of the students shocked at seeing Alexis in red
"What the? How? Why?" Were some of the responses the students had when they saw her.
"Alright, alright. Sit down, everyone." Professor Banner spoke
The students nodded, doing as they were told
"Now, as all of you see, Ms Rhodes has been...Demoted to our dorm." Professor Banner spoke, swallowing his hate that a talented student was in his dorm which seemed impossible. "I hope that you all will treat her as any of your friends and fellow Slifers."
The students all nodded, amazed at this situation "And now for Alexis' placement. She needs to bunk with someone and the only person she can stay with, the only one with room in their room is Chazz."
"MY room?" Chazz asked, perking up at the sound of Professor Banner's voice, hearing the plan to have Alexis in HIS room.
Oh the fun he'd have
"You ARE the only one without a roommate Chazz." Banner nodded
'Oh, no...not Chazz.' Alexis frowned, shuddering of being in the same room as him.
"Um...P-Professor?" Syrus raised his hand, trying to get his attention
"Yes Syrus?" Banner asked
"Um...Well...Perhaps...Can Alexis have my location in the dorm? And I bunk with Chazz?" Syrus offered
"That is very nice of you Syrus." Banner smiled "If it is alright with you, Alexis?"
"Um-Y-Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Thanks, Syrus." Alexis answered, honestly caught off guard by Syrus' generosity.
'Damn it!' Chazz cursed in his mind as his foot stomped the floor.
"Looks like we'll be roomies then." Jaden smiled at Alexis
"Yeah, looks like it." Jaden nodded
'Truesdale. Is. DEAD!' Chazz thought as he gritted his teeth.
'Oh no.' Syrus thought, gulping
