I would have updated soonerbut I deleted chapter 2 by mistake so I spent three hours rewriting it. The grammar may be horrible since I'm using my iPod to write this so please be considerate. The OC's will start appearing in chapter 3 so be nice and I'll see you at the bottom. Don't forget tosubscribe and check out my 5ds story.
One week later:
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beeeeep. Stupid alarm, where's the snooze button? My hand flailed around for a few seconds before I finally pressed it. I turned around to check the time and it was 9:00am! Jaden and I are meant to be at Kaiba Land by 10:00am! I shot out of bed and shook Jaden awake from the top bunk.
"Jaden, we're late! It's 9:00am!" I yelled.
"Huh, wha-" he mumbled before I pulled him off his bed.
I caught him before he could break his arm like I once did. He was wide awake now, I made him get changed while I ran to the bathroom to start getting ready. I brushed my teeth, used the toilet and washed my face. I was back in the bedroom by 9:08am and pushed Jaden out of the room. He was wearing a black jacket, short sleeved red shirt, black jeans and red trainers. His hair looked like his Winged Kuriboh since he didn't brush it.
I grabbed my dark blue jeans, red vest top with a green apple on it, white trainers and my black jean jacket with gold buttons. My hair was too far gone to fix, so I gave it a few strokes and tied it with the black hair band around my wrist. My fringe was getting into my eyes but I could only brush it to the side with my fingers. I grabbed me and Jaden's backpack's on the floor. Mine was black with purple and Jaden's was black with red. I looked at the clock and it was 9:15.
It was digital and it was a small silver box, with a black screen and bold red numbers. At the last minute I decided to unplug it and take it with me. I wrapped the cable around the clock and then packed it in my bag. I went over to the door and looked around the whole room for one last time. The next time I would see it would be during Christmas, if my parents would be around. The carpet was black and worn, the ceiling was white with the light fixture that had a red lampshade and the walls were painted a crimson red that Jaden chose. Our beds were a light brown bunk bed, Jaden had the top bunk and his bed sheets were of superman, he always did love his superheroes. Mine were purple and covered in different coloured gem stones, I always did love colourful and sparkly stuff.
The wardrobe was a light brown with a sliding mirror door that held mine and Jaden's clothes, there was a dresser that was white and it had a door on the front. We didn't have a TV but we both had a DS, I made sure to take mine but Jaden didn't take his. But I made sure to put his phone in his bag and mine in my pocket. I flicked the light off and shut the door behind me. Jaden was wolfing down some toast and I stole a slice from him.
"So, did you forget anything?" I asked him.
"No, stop bothering me. I am older then you."
"Only by 1 minute and what about your deck?" I asked him.
"Sure it's right- where is it?" he patted around his pockets frantically.
"Its in your bag." I informed him.
He looked relieved, "I knew that."
Sure you did. I noticed a note on the table, it was written in mum's handwriting. Basically her and dad were wishing us good luck, reminding us to take our mobile's and to phone or text everyday. Apparently I had to look after Jaden since he can be a little… careless. Jaden took his backpack and we both left the house. It was 9:20am so we had forty minutes to get there. The train better not be late. Luckily it wasn't and by 9:57am we had arrived. We boarded the helicopter/plane. It was as long as a plane but the top of it looked like a helicopter.
I snagged the window seat while Jaden sat next to me. Bastion and Syrus were sitting behind us. I took a book out of my bag on different duel strategies. You see my Gem-Knight deck allows me to fusion summon but I have yet to preform one. Jaden makes it look easy but it's not.
"Kuri, kuri." Kuribon said happily,
She was on my shoulder, "Hey Kuribon. Are you as excited as me and Jay?"
She started to nod enthusiastically and her eyes were all sparkly. She looked over to Jaden and started to motion to him. I looked over to him and stifled a laugh, he was snoring and drooling! I took my phone out of my bag and snapped a pic of him, making sure to post it on my blog. I captioned it, "Jaden's so excited he can't wait for Duel Academy."
I turned back to my book and spent the next two hours reading. It was a shock when the intercom announced our arrival. It was a huge island surrounded with green, there was a huge building with four circle roofs. One was white, the other red, the second blue and the last was yellow. There was a volcano that had smoke coming out of it. The ocean was such a beautiful shade of blue, I think I'm gonna like it here. When the plane landed I was grateful for getting off since my legs were dying.
Dr. Cross dressing Crowler lead us inside and instructed us to line up and get our uniform. Since Jaden and I were in Slifer we had to line up with the other Slifer's where I noticed I was the only girl. Maybe I was the only girl who applied this year? When I picked up my uniform, the lady gave me a pitying look. That made me feel weird, I went to the changing rooms alone and examined my uniform. It was a pure red sleeveless top with a white outline and the collar stuck up. There was a white skirt with a grey stripe at both sides and mid elbow length red gloves that were fingerless. There were also red leather ankle boots. I took the black undershirt and changed into it but I kept my jeans on since I hated skirts. I changed into the boots though so the academy wouldn't get to angry.
I looked at myself in the mirror and sorted out my hair so that it was flowing down my back. I walked out and met the rest of the group, Jaden was wearing a red jacket except it was open, exposing a plain black shirt and he was wearing light blue jeans with his red and black trainers. Then we all followed Crowler to a classroom with a giant screen at the front. When we all got inside, it turned on, showing a bald man with a beard, wearing a red coat and a tie.
"Good morning and welcome students. I am Chancellor Sheppard, the headmaster here. You're all here because you're the best and brightest young duelists in the world."
Jaden's head was bobbing, as if he had a hard time staying fully awake, but I couldn't blame him. This is as boring as hell! Chancellor talked for almost a half an hour and finished by saying something about out dorms and how they are ranked. Slifer's are the lowest, Ra's are middle and Obelisk's are high. Jaden wasn't listening though so he didn't know what to do. Since it was induction day we had the whole day to look around the school. But we decided on seeing the Slifer dorm. But when we approached it, it was a tiny brown building with the paint peeling off.
"What kind of place is this? It looks like an outhouse with a deck."
"Cheer up Sy. At least the view's great. Let's check out our room." Jaden walked up to a door and looked at the number before opening it. "Yep. This one's ours."
The room was moderately sized. There was a triple bunk bed in one end, a sink and cupboard in another and a few desks against the wall opposite the bed.
"I guess it isn't the biggest, but it still looks pretty nice," I tried to lighten the mood.
"You said it Jamie. This'll be great for our first year," Jaden said, as he walked up to the window and pulled the drapes apart.
"Hey! Those we're closed for a reason," a loud voice came from the top bunk.
"Sorry. We didn't see you up there." Jaden apologized.
"Yeah? Well how about know?" A large angry face that looked like a koala stared at the three of us from the top bunk.
Jaden and Syrus immediately grabbed one another, shouting in fright, while I fell on my butt.
"Who are you and what are you doing in my room?"
"I'm Jaden Yugi, this is Syrus and on the floor is Jamie. We're your new roommates." Jaden explained.
"I'm not obviously, I'm just seeing this room." I filled him in.
"Then let me explain to you how it works around here."
"What works?" Jaden asked.
"The color issue, duh! That's one thing you don't want to forget. There are three kinds of students here. The Obelisk Blues are the highest, then the Ra Yellows and finally, there's us. The Slifer Red flunkies. Were the bottom of the barrel. By the way, I'm Chumley."
"Yeah… Nice to meet you," Syrus said with little conviction.
"Well, not that this isn't fun but my room is next door." I yawned before leaving.
I hurried out and went inside my room which was actually next door. It had lilac walls, red carpets, a double bunk bed in a corner, two desks with two red swivel chairs, a sink and two cupboards. I definitely get the top bunk, though there were no sheets. I'll start unpacking by plugging in my alarm clock and charging my phone. I checked the time on my phone and apparently it was 1:06pm. I didn't really need a phone since the whole academy were given a PDA to communicate. I unpacked my backpack and I was closing the drawers, Jaden and Syrus burst in my room.
"Sweet room, anyway are you ready to explore?"
"Lets go." I smiled.
Jaden was leading us around and we found a duel arena.
"Wow, this is some cool place." Jaden admired.
"No kidding Jay. This rocks." Syrus replied.
"It must be amazing to duel here." I said.
"Well sis, why don't we find out."
"Do you guys think we should?" Syrus asked.
"Why not? I mean we're students here and this is our campus."
"Wrong!" We looked around and saw two Obelisk students standing near us.
"This part of the campus belongs to the Obelisk Blues. And Slifer dropouts like you aren't meant to be here."
Really?" I asked. A sly smile on my face. "Then why don't you guys defend it by dueling us?"
"Hey I recognize them," the Obelisk with the glasses said. "She's the one that beat Ms Fontaine and the other beat Dr. Crowler. Hey Chazz, that kid who beat Crowler is here."
Chazz walked down the bleachers until he was level with the us.
"I guess he must have some skill, if he beat Crowler's legendary monster. Or maybe he just got lucky. I say we find out right now. Me against you."
"How about me against you?" I asked.
"No way little girl, why don't you go play with your dollies?" Chazz laughed.
"How about I play with your face, except with my fists." he stopped laughing.
"This is a strange gathering we have here." We all turned around and saw the Obelisk girl who had spoken.
"Hey Alexis. Have you come to see me mop the floor with my new friend Jamie? I won't be a long duel, be it'll be fun to watch."
"No, I came to remind you about the Obelisk welcome dinner. You'll be late if you don't get there soon."
"Oh yeah! Let's go guys." Chazz passed by me as he went out. "Don't worry, I saw your little match. You won't be too hard to beat."
Must kill preppy boy.
Alexis turned towards the three us. "Sorry about that. It isn't all the Obelisks that are like him. He's just a jerk, even more to Slifers."
"Hey no problem, his type doesn't really bother me. Besides, I could beat him in one turn, maybe two, two and a half." Jaden bragged.
"Are you sure it'd take you that long Jay? I could probably beat him with my eyes closed." I replied.
"Um guys? It's good to be sure of yourselves and all, but maybe we should work on the overconfidence issue." Syrus said.
"By the way, the Slifer welcome dinner should be starting soon."
"Good, let's go I'm starving." As if for emphasis, Jaden's stomach growled a little.
As we began to run back, Jaden turned around. "What was your name again?"
"Alexis Rhodes and yours?"
"I'm Jaden."
"I'm Jamie. See ya later!"
We ran back to the dorm but Jaden beat me.
"This is what we get for our welcome dinner?" The Slifer students said aloud. We were sitting in the cafeteria and in front of us were trays of sardines, rice, what looked like gravy with chunks in it and a few pieces of pineapple.
"What's with the cat?" Syrus thought out loud. "I hope he's not really our headmaster."
As he said this, a tall man with long black hair, glasses and wearing a white shirt stepped out of the kitchen. "Hello children. I am Professor Banner. I'm also your headmaster. Now before we eat, why don't we all-" Banner stopped as he heard us eating loudly. Jaden and I were having an eating contest and I haven't lost yet.
"Guys, he's coming over here. I'd rather not be in trouble on my first day."
Banner stopped next to their table and cleared his throat. Me and Jaden momentarily stopped eating and looked at him. We both tried to say our names, but our cheeks were puffed up like chipmunks because of the food, making it impossible for us to talk.
"Well I guess not everyone can wait. Let's just all dig in."
30 minutes later
"I totally won that."
"Dream on sis, that was me. Right Sy?"
"Jaden I think Jamie win that."
"In yo face!" I burped loudly.
"Burping contest." Jaden announced.
"No fair, I can't burp on command like you."
"Well then, I win by forfeit."
We were back in his room, just chilling.
"Care for tea guys?" Syrus offered us mugs that he had just filled.
"Thanks." Jaden said.
"No thanks, I hate tea."
It's so tasteless and bland.
"What about you Chumley?"
The only answer he got was Chumley turning around and snoring. Suddenly there was a beeping sound coming Jaden. He took out his PDA which indicated an incoming message.
"Hey Slifer slacker." We all saw Chazz's face on the screen. "Don't start thinking I've forgotten. Tonight at midnight we're dueling. And why don't we each put up our best card up for grabs. And unless your sister is too scared, bring her with you. I'll have someone waiting for her as well."
"Wicked! Looks like we'll get to duel in that arena after all."
"Are you nuts. If we lose then our best cards are gone!"
"That's impossible because I never lose." Jaden replied.
Time to do something potentially crazy. We snuck out of the room and walked to the arena. We still had time.
"So you guys actually came? I was afraid you'd run scared." We saw Chazz and his two lackeys standing on the arena platform.
"No way. I never back down from a challenge."
"Same with me. So who am I going to duel?" I asked.
"You'll be against him." Chazz pointed to the Obelisk with glasses. "Mark, you can take care of this one first. After that though, Jaden's all mine."
"If you lose then you have to go on a date with me." Mark grinned.
I shuddered, ewwww! We walked onto the arena and faced each other.
"Let's duel." We both activated their disks and drew our cards.
This guy has no idea what I've got planned for him.
I only made the reference to Jaden breaking his arm if he fell because when I was 4 I broke my arm that way. My brother and I shared a bunk bed until we were 10. Also we have had a fewearring contests and I win, but like I said I can't burp on command. Please review and till next time. Anyone have any ideas on what deck type Mark could use.
