Author's Note:

Hey guys! Just a little warning before you read this, there won't be any dueling or action in this chapter. Just a little build up to something greater since I'm not familiar with Chazz's manga deck. Please rate and review if you liked this chapter and think it's a good build up to the soon to be chapters! Coming soon: Chazz vs. Jaden! The GX rivals face off!

Sincerely,

In my opinion, it wasn't a surprise that Chazz, Kaiba, and Yugi won their matches. What WAS a surprise was the fact that Chazz's deck changed as well. Instead of using the Armed Dragon's and the Ojama's, Chazz has been using Dragon's with the ace being Light and Darkness Dragon.

Jaden was smiling and giddy all over. Not something you'd expect from a pro, but hey, it's Jaden. "I hope I get to face Chazz in the next round. Those Dragons look stronger than his old deck."

I just shook my head, same old Jaden. I fidgeted, though, a little worried. Not worried for Jaden for his duels, but worried for me. I had this REALLY bad feeling that Alexis was calling me.

Meanwhile, in Duel Academy...

(Alexis)

"WHAT THE HELL! PICK UP ALREADY SYRUS!" I hung up the phone for the fiftieth time. "Why isn't Syrus picking up?!"

"Well, championship protocol st-" I cut off Bastion.

"I don't care about any stupid protocol, Bastion!" I glared at him. "All I care about is hearing Jaden's voice again!"

I called Syrus' number again and somebody finally picked up. "Syrus, why di-"

A female voice spoke instead of Syrus. "Syrus isn't here."

"Umm...then how do you have his phone?"

Back to the World Championship

(Syrus)

My jaw dropped at the pairings for the duels. Jaden was excited at who his opponent was. "Alright! I get to face Chazz next!"

That's right. Yugi and Kaiba were paired up to face each other, along with Chazz and Jaden. Chazz and Jaden were going to be the first to duel.

Jaden began to walk toward the duel arena. "Wish me luck, Sy!"

I smiled and followed him, stopping at the entrance to the duel field. As I began to relax and watch the duel, somebody covered my eyes from behind me. "Guess who?"

I smiled as I recognized the voice of the beautiful woman behind me. "Hey, Missy. How is my beau-" I stopped when I turned around and saw her angry face my cell phone in her hand. "What is it?"

"Why is Alexis calling you!? And left over FIFTY voice mail?"

Oh boy. "Remember when I told you that she has a thing for Jaden?" Missy nodded. "Nobody has been able to reach Jaden for the past five years, especially since he changed his cell phone number. If she's calling me, she's watching the world championship, seen Jaden, and trying to call me to talk to him."

Missy wasn't angry anymore, she understood now. "By the way, your cell phone is still on. Alexis is still on the line." She handed it to me.

I gingerly put the phone to my ear,expecting the worse. "Hello?"

"SYRUS TRUESDALE! HOW DARE YOU LEAVE YOUR CELL PHONE AT YOUR HOTEL ROOM! GIVE YOUR PHONE TO JADEN!"

"But, Alexis, he's on the duel field. Nobody can interrupt the duel! Otherwise, they'll get kicked out! Just wait for Jaden to finish his duel okay? I'll call you when he's done."

I hung up the phone before she could respond and turned off my phone. "I knew I should've remembered to make sure my phone was off."

Missy pecked a kiss on my lips. "At least I'm here, sweety."

I kissed her back on the lips and looked at Chazz and Jaden on the Duel Field, ready to duel. Whatever challenge Chazz was going to give Jaden, it would be WAY easier than the challenge that he would have to face after this duel.
