Chapter 1 Decision
It was Saturday morning and Jaden Yuki was asleep in his bed. Suddenly he felt like he was being shaken.
"Jaden, wake up," a voice said.
Jaden opened up his eyes only to see Jesse Anderson, his blunette friend from North Academy standing over him.
"What the heck, Jesse! It's Saturday," Jaden said irritated.
"Come on Jaden we're supposed to be going to the beach with others today," Jesse stated.
"Okay come and get at 9:00," Jaden said as he started closing his eyes again.
"Jaden it is already 9:00, as a matter of fact its 9:15. Now get up already," Jesse said as he started shaking Jaden again.
"All right already! I'm getting up," Jaden said as he started getting out of bed.
"Good! I'll meet ya' outside," Jesse replied with a smile on his face leaving
Jaden in the room by himself to change clothes.
It has been a few weeks since Jaden and the others came back from rescuing Jesse from the alternate dimension. A lot of things have changed at Duel Academy. Syrus was promoted to Obelisk Blue (again) and in his final year at Duel Academy. Hassleberry is in his third year at Duel Academy. Chazz was back in Obelisk Blue in his 4th year. He and Alexis have started dating. Bastion was still in the alternate dimension with Tanya, discovering the mysteries of that dimension. Blair moved out of the Slifer dorm and moved in with Alexis and her friends in the Obelisk girls' dorm. This left Jaden alone in the Slifer dorm. He wasn't completely alone, Jesse was staying with him. Due to some transportation problems on the Mainland; Jesse, Axel, Jim, Shirley the croc, Vice Chancellor Bonaparte, and his son Marcel are staying at Duel Academy for a few more months. Adrian Gecko was still missing somewhere in the alternate dimension along with Echo. Aster was back in pro-dueling circuit along with Zane. The biggest change at Duel Academy was Jaden Yuki, who is in his final year at Duel Academy. As soon as he came back from the other dimension Jaden's personality changed. He wasn't his normal goofy self anymore. He became quieter and grew more distant from his friends. Jaden's behavior had everyone worried, including Crowler who was always on his case. To cheer up Jaden and find out what was wrong with him, the group came up with Operation Cheer Up Jaden (Blair and Syrus came up with the name). The plan consisted of the gang taking Jaden to hang out and have fun at all of the places Jaden loved to go before he changed. But the real reason Jaden was acting the way he was because of what happened in the alternate dimension. He put all of his friends' lives in danger due to his recklessness. For that reason Jaden was trying to distant himself from his friends, so he can never put his friends in danger ever again.
Jaden was getting dressed in his new attire which consisted of a black shirt, a pair of black jeans, red shoes, and a new Slifer red jacket that was longer than his old one. As Jaden continued to get dressed his duel spirit friend, Winged Kuriboh appeared beside him. Jaden turned to him and gave him a small smile.
"Hey buddy, what's up?" Jaden asked.
Kuriboh looked at him with a worried look on his face. Winged Kuriboh was just as worried about Jaden as his other friends were. But unlike them Kuriboh knew whose fault it was for Jaden's sudden change. It was Yubel's fault. To make a long story, Yubel was angry with Jaden and was going to destroy the dimension. Jaden decided to use the Spiritual Fusion card to fuse with her in order to stop her from destroying the dimension, thus changing him forever. Said spirit appeared behind Jaden.
"So where are you going today Jaden?" Yubel asked.
"I'm going to the beach with my friends," Jaden answered while putting on his Slifer jacket.
"Why are they always trying to take you everywhere?" Yubel asked.
"They are just trying to cheer me up," Jaden replied.
Yubel crossed her arms.
"Are they stupid or something?" she asked
Winged Kuriboh got mad and got up in Yubel's face and started hissing at her.
"What's with you?" Yubel asked.
"Kuri kuri kukuri kuri kuriri," (translation: This is your entire fault! If you haven't shown up and threatened to destroy the world, Jaden wouldn't be like this now) Kuriboh shouted as he fluttered rapidly in front of Yubel's face.
"Look you little fur ball! I said I was sorry, so get out of my face before I send you to the bottom of the ocean," Yubel shouted back.
"Kuri kuri," (translation: Make me!) Kuriboh replied.
"That's it! I'm going to get you, you little…Yubel was saying until she was interrupted.
"Guys, stop it already!" Jaden shouted.
Yubel and Kuriboh stopped fighting and looked at Jaden.
"I'm thankful that you're worried about me and I'm really thankful that my friends are worried about me too. But I have to stop this. I don't want to get hurt anymore because of me. Today is the last day I'm going to hang out with my friends because I'm going to drop out of Duel Academy," Jaden stated.
Yubel and Kuriboh looked at Jaden with shocked expressions on their faces.
"Jaden… are you sure?" Yubel asked
Kuriboh started flailing about in front of Jaden's face.
"Kuri Kuri Kuri," (translation: You can't leave Duel Academy! What about dueling and what about your friends?) Kuriboh shouted.
"Listen guys it's my decision. I'll just leave the beach early when the time is right. I'll go Chancellor Sheppard's office and requested for my withdrawal from the academy," Jaden stated.
With a sad face Winged Kuriboh disappeared.
"If that is what you want I won't stop you, Jaden," Yubel said as she disappeared.
When Jaden was done and all alone he took a deep breath and walked out the door to meet Jesse.
To be continued…
Author's note: I'm finally done with this chapter. I didn't expect it to be this long but that's okay. I have given Kuriboh and Ruby speaking roles in this story so you'll hear more from them. I hope you'll like it. Also, it will be a couple of weeks or maybe by the end the end of this month before I finish chapter 2 so be patient. Comments, reviews, and tips appreciated.
