Chapter 2
A New Student
The previous night's tropical storm finally roared itself out. The warm morning sun and thoroughly soaked island resulted in a humid feel in the air as the students of Duel Academy prepared for their day. This was a special day because the buzz around the academy was that a new student was transferring here.
Jaden was too caught up in trying to find Jesse and to really find out what was going on. So far, the blue-eyed boy was no where to be found. He didn't even come to eat lunch as usual at the Slifer Red Dorm with Jaden and the rest of the gang.
"I wonder where Jesse ran off to?" Jaden thought to himself as he began to slowly eat his lunch with his friends. Everyone notice that he wasn't shoveling down his food like usual, and this meant that something was on Jaden's mind.
"Hey Jaden, is anything wrong?" asked Alexis inquisitively.
"Yeah, you haven't been looking good lately, Sarge," added Hassleberry.
"Um, have you guys seen Jesse lately?" Jaden replied. Everyone looked at each other with blank expressions before looking back at Jaden.
"Sorry, Jay. None of us have seen him," said Syrus.
"Now that you mention it, he's been kinda distant with all of us," added Atticus, "I wonder what's been up with him?"
"I've been curious about that bloke, too." added Jim.
"It doesn't matter!" said Chazz rather harshly.
"What's important is that we find out more about this new student transferring in. I heard he's quite good. But he'll never beat The Chazz!" Everyone ignored this statement, having gotten quite used to Chazz's ego-complex.
"Did you find out his name?" asked Syrus, hoping that the change of subject would help brighten Jaden's mood.
"No, I didn't. But I heard he's won a few small-time tournaments with little effort. But I'm sure he'll not stand a chance against any of us, especially me!" Chazz replied.
The group finished their meal, then proceeded to finish up their classes for the day. In their last period, Dr. Crowler made an announcement.
"All right students! Please give our new student a warm welcome to our humble academy! His boat arrived late because of some technicial difficulties, but now he is here! Our new transfer student from the U.S., Buck Hodge! His grades and dueling skills has landed him in Obelisk Blue Dorm!"
The class gave a typical applause as the new student walked confidently into the room. He was about medium height, with a semi-muscular build to him, with a slight tan on his skin. His hair was yellow-blonde with his bangs covering his right eye in a hair-flip. As he walked, the hair-flip would move to reveal his eye, which was ice-blue. His uncovered eye was bright green. On his face was a scar that flowed from the middle of his nose to the middle part of his right cheek. He was wearing black pants with green stitching that looked slightly baggy on his legs. Connected to his pants were metal chains that reached from his thigh area to his hind-area. The boy's boot-like shoes, mostly covered by his pant bottoms, were black suede. The shirt he was wearing was bright white with what looked like a keyboard graphic that was shaped as if it were "splashed" onto the shirt. Around the boy's neck was a necklace and a collar. The necklace was a silver dragon with painted blue and white wings and a blue jewel for its visible eye, attached to a chain around the boy's neck. The collar was of black leather and was attached around his neck firmly, yet comfortably. On his left arm was a duel disk.
The boy didn't say anything. His eyes were fierce, yet his facial expression was rather blank. Many of the girls gasped at his appearance. Whispering began to fill the classroom.
"Okay, now that that is taken care of, class dismissed!" Crowler finished.
Many students attempted to reach Buck Hodge to ask questions, but the new student had already swiftly exited the classroom and headed toward the grounds.
"Hey! New kid!" yelled Chazz. He was sprinting towards the transfer student with Jaden and the rest of the gang in tow. The student merely stopped and quietly turned and confidently faced Chazz with the blank but fierce-eyed expression still on his face.
"So you think your sooo hot because you;ve been placed in Obelisk Blue Dorm, huh? Well let's see how good you really are! And after I win, I'll show the whole school that you don't belong here!" Chazz said confidently.
The new student, Buck, continued to look at Chazz before quietly saying "I'm not interested in having a boring duel. Sorry. Have a good day." Buck turned on his heel to continue on to the grounds. Chazz looked quite taken aback.
"Take it easy Chazz. He just got here! Let the guy explore the place first!" Alexis attempted to explain but Chazz was not listening.
"Oh really? Are you scared I might just beat you! I knew it! Your scared. I knew you didn't belon-" Chazz was interrupted.
"Are you this annoying all the time? Because if you are, I can tell already there's going to be some problems around here." He paused. "Ugh, fine. I'll duel you just to shut you up. Hurry and get your deck ready so I can wipe the floor with your sorry carcass," Buck said with annoyance clearly in his voice. He already had his deck and duel disk ready to go.
"Heh. Time to see what this guy can do." thought Chazz. He prepared his deck and turned on his duel disk.
"Game on!" both duelists chanted.

Author's Commentage:
Lol you guys are gonna laugh at my for this, but the new student is supposed to represent me (or actually a combination of me-personality, interests, etc.-with who I'd like to be if say I was reborn or something) Sounds crazy I know, but it's how I'm gonna write this! As usual, I don't know how this chapter stacks up, but I think it was a little easier to write this one, and I think I did better on this chapter than the first one! Anyway, please review and if you could tell me what you like/dislike and if you could send me pointers so I can improve this chapter! Also, if you have any ideas about what you would like to see in the story, then feel free to send me a message or review with your ideas! . Next chapter will be up soon! Until then!
