Elite of the Elite

Everyone had already watched, in shock, what happened that one day during Jaden's second year at Duel Academy. He had made a reputation of himself as the Slifer Slacker from year one. All of the Obelisk Elites frowned upon him; made fun of him. And yet, he beat the 2nt Elite Obelisk, Chazz, without a sweat, and laughing the entire time. But what happened after that, sent the Obelisks into said shock forever.

One of the Obelisks, from the bleachers, noticed Jaden's Winged Kuriboh spirit and his mouth showed what a shock this was. Before turning into a smirk of some kind. He left the stands without a word to the Obelisk-only crowd he was in, and met Jaden in a nearby forest. Needless to say, they became friends on the spot due to being able to see spirits. Jaden had no idea on his ranking at the time. Until he was met by 3rd best Obelisk Blue the next day. Jack Atlas.

"What did you do to Yusei?"

"Wh-Whoa, chill out, man! How do you know Yusei?" The Slifer nervously responded, being held by the shirt, then thrown down to the floor by his words. Jack pointed to his custom made Obelisk trench coat. "I'm in the same dorm as him, Slifer Slacker! We're obviously related that way!"

"Okay, n-no need to get rough on me…" Jaden said, full of pain as he sat up. He chuckled happily on the end, as if already forgiving Jack. "Yusei would never hang out with a Slifer! He's the Elite of the Elite!" Jack sneered at him, picking him up again when a hand touched his shoulder. "Jack."

Everything froze except Jaden, who made a noise in awe as Yusei had come to his rescue. The silence after that was ended by Jaden crying out as he was dropped by Jack back into the ground. Jack stood up with his head hung low. "Don't treat my other friends that way." Jack couldn't believe this as he turned around. "You're friends with a Slifer?"

"Jack, you know how I hate discrimination." Jack had a hissy fit as he couldn't find the words to convince Yusei otherwise with that statement. He left with a scoff. Yusei proceeded to help Jaden up and dust him off. "Sorry about that. Jack takes his dorm rank a bit too far."

"Nah, it's okay, bro." Jaden smiled, "Ain't nothing I can't handle!" Yusei smiled just a bit as Jaden's optimism.

"Am I allowed at the Slifer Dormitory? I could help you clean up and make up for what Jack did to you."

"Oh sure! We've had a Ra Yellow stay before, so what could an Obelisk do?"

Unfortunately, Yusei was left to teach Syrus some dueling tips out of boredom due to Jaden playing a game on his SP after his bruises were attended to. Yusei kept watching Jaden as he played his game, wondering what it was he was playing. "Hey, Jaden. What game is that?"

"Huh? O-Oh! Sonic Battle. Why, you wanna try?"

Yusei shook his head, but he admitted to himself that whenever he got the chance, he'd buy it himself.

That came sooner than expected as Yusei visited Jaden on a weekend to give it a test run. They found each other trying the 2P mode against one another rather than teaching Yusei how to play it first.

"Be warned, I'm using my Neos Emerl; I filled him up with the best attacks out of all the characters!" Jaden grinned evily. Yusei didn't respond to it besides giving Jaden his attention.

The first match had started. Yusei made Shadow walk up to Emerl and take the first few hits. This didn't impress Yusei. Neither did the fact that he unfairly lost without knowing how to properly play, and Jaden praised himself like it was a normal win. He ignored Jaden's cheers, and planned for payback.

Second round. Yusei decided to press the A and B buttons to see what would happen, and sure enough, got a few hits at the start, but still lost due to moves Jaden used that, to him, he didn't even have.

Third round. Yusei spent most of it being a dummy for Emerl to kick around as he watched Jaden do the moves from before. The R and L buttons held the secrets.

Fifth round. Yusei put the moves to the test, and found out Shadow held the powers of Chaos Control. Teleportation. He smiled like he just drew a victory card. There it is.

Sixth round, and Jaden couldn't keep track of Shadow. Didn't even get any good hits in besides punches. The poor Slifer was dizzy by the time the match was over and fell flat; back to the floor. Yusei smiled a bit more. "Best two out of three?"

"Ugggnnn…" Jaden now knew why he was called Elite of the Elite. He could master any game. Yusei was a genius.

A/N: Am I ever gonna write a drabble-sized fic for this? I mean, really? Lmfao Sorry guys! XP Sonic Battle was purely spur of the moment. And Shadow is a nod to my Mom; who kept calling Yusei Shadow after the 3D Movie LOL. I'm sorry, Shadow, but Yusei smiles way more than you. You smile, and it's like Zero Reverse all over again-…That was cold, wasn't it?

I'm sorry. ;A;
