Chapter 4

Chancellor Samejima was looking at the island through his office window but his thoughts were somewhere other then what he was looking at. He is currently thinking about a certain girl who was now in the infirmary, to be more accurate, it was the cards she possessed that has him thinking. When he saw those cards he noted to himself to ask her about it when she woke up but that option went out of the window now that she can't remember anything. He heard of a series of hero cards that was never officially published, in other words there is only one original copy of those cards. "Could it be that she was attacked for those cards or maybe she has stolen them." Samejima thought. "Maybe I am overthinking this. I2 might be working on more than one series of Hero cards. They are already working on an improved version of Elemental Heroes." He went to his desk and opened a drawer where a small box was hidden. "The burden of these cards is making me paranoid." He closed the drawer and exited his office. The hallways of his academy were full of teenagers. Looking at these kids brought him a feeling of guilt. "Is it correct to endanger all these kids?" He shook his head and dismissed those thoughts. He promised himself to not let the situation get to that point.

Azula heard a knock on the door and shifted herself to a sitting position. When the door opened an old man entered the room, Azula just had one word to describe this man, Iroh. This man's feature is very similar to her uncle, bald head, fat and the always present smirk on his face. "If I find out this man has an addiction to tea, I will incinerate him myself."

"Well, I see the sleeping beauty is finally awake." He said with slight chuckle. This did not amuse Azula at all. So she changed the subject.

"I take it, you are the chancellor."

"Well, since you don't seem to be in joking mood. Yes, I am the chancellor."

"What is going to happen to me? I don't think you will keep me here forever, are you?"

"No, I am not thinking about keeping you here forever. Just until we find out where you are from and find your relatives."

"I doubt you will find any." "And what if I am an orphan?"

"Are you an orphan?"

"Are you joking with me?"

"No"

"Then you should know by now that I don't remember anything."

"I do know but it couldn't hurt to try." Samejima chuckled again which pissed Azula.

"Is this a military school for kids?"

"No. Why do you ask?"

"Because I get a feeling that you think I am some kind of spy, lying about not remembering anything." Samejima laughed at that.

"I think you used to watch too many movies. But we are getting off the course; I didn't come here to interrogate you. How are you feeling?"

"Now he is asking?" "Not much pain now. I am sure it is a passing pain." Samejima just nodded.

"It is understandable. You were unmoving for a week. I will send someone tomorrow to get you to my office, that is if you had no problem walking. We will talk about your staying arrangements there." Azula nodded and laid back. Samejima left her and went back to his office to think about her living arrangements and give a call to his boss. "She is certainly hiding something. I just hope it has nothing to do with that. By the way she was clothed; she is either a cosplayer or an actress. I hope it is the later. It will be easier to find her home but if it is neither… "

Azula was also thinking about the conversation she just had, she knew that he knew about her lying. But she was sure he has no idea what is she lying about. "He might think I don't want to share my past with anyone, which is true. But he has no idea what kind of past did I have." She held her hand up and created fire in the palm of her hand, but it was not the sight she used to see. This fire was smaller, much smaller than the last time she remembers. "One week? I doubt it, one week would affect my bending this much. It is certainly more than that. I should train myself back to shape when I'm alone. Well… nothing I can do now except waiting for tomorrow."

The next day Azula woke up at sunrise, the same as always. During her wait she got up –which was harder than normal, but easier than yesterday- and walked around the room for a bit. After that she started stretching her body. During the whole process her body ached at first but got better after she got used to movement. Now that her body didn't ach anymore, or at least not enough to stagger her movement, she started a doing some light warm-ups, and went back to bed after the warm-up. Just like yesterday she had to wait two hours for someone to arrive which pissed her off to no end. She was ready to blow of some steam on anyone who comes through this door. When the door opened, what she saw catch her off guard. "What the hell." What came through the door was unlike anything she had seen before. It was a man-woman she had no idea. It had blonde hair that was sectioned in two layers, with the layer furthest from his face tightly-bound in a ponytail. He is wearing a regal blue uniform with gold trimmings and ruffled pink collar, he also wears crescent-shaped earrings.

"I see you are awake. Were you waiting long?" It said.

"Who are you?"

"I am Professor Cronos de Medici."

"Well Mr.… Are you a man or a woman?" Chronos taken a back animedropped but quickly composed himself.

He cleared his throat. "Well, since I am a gentleman, I will let this disrespect slid just this once. And to answer your question, I am a man and head of Obelisk blue dorm which consists of the most elite duelists on the island; I also have PHD at dueling and take the title of doctor." While he was dramatically ranting about himself, he didn't notice Azula go passed him toward the door.

"Well doctor. Shall we go?" Azula said already at the door.

"Huh? Ah, yeah. Follow me. We don't want to keep the chancellor waiting." With that a foaming man-woman made his way to chancellor's office with a smirking girl walking behind. Azula could actually read the guy like an open book, far easier than anyone else she has met here. "It looks like this guy has a bad experience with people who talk back at him."

Chronos stopped at a door which she thought is their destination. But the door was strange with no doorknob. Not a second later the door slide open and Chronos went inside gesturing for her to follow inside. Inside was spacious, not as spacious as fire lord's chamber but still spacious. Right in front of her was a window which is used as a wall to the backside of the office. There were two similar doors to the one behind her on the far corners to the left and right. There was also a large board stuck on the wall. But she was sure it was more than a simple board, it was mostly made of glass. Two flowerpots were in the middle of the room. Between the flowerpots was a desk with the bald man she talked to yesterday sitting on a chair behind it.

"Thank you for escorting her here, Cronos. You can go now." Cronos left without a word. By the angry look on his face, Samejima guessed it must be another case of Mr. /Mrs.

"I see you can walk without a problem now, please have a sit." Samejima said gesturing to the seats in front the desk on both sides. Azula sit without a word and waited for him to continue. "I talked to my boss about you and your living arrangements but before giving an OK he wants to talk to you personally." Azula looked at the door in the corner.

"Is he here?"

"No, he is not on the island. He is a very busy man" Azula wanted to ask something but chancellor raised his hand to cut her off. "Don't worry you won't have to wait for him to come. That screen in front of you is used to communicate long distance." He said pointing to the board on the wall. Just as he finished talking the screen come to life showing a young man with brown hair, sharp blue eyes and wearing a white coat.

"So, you are the one they found. Azula, was it?" The man on the on screen asked. Azula just nodded and the man continued. "I am Kaiba Seto the owner of that school and the island." This guy was probably a successful businessman. And she was sure that this was his way of saying 'I control everything on this island'. "The only reason I bothered calling was that I heard you have cards never seen before."

"I don't know if these cards are as rare as you say." Said Azula taking out the cards from the single pocket in the hospital gown she was wearing.

"Care to show them." Azula faced the cards to the screen. "Just put them on the table." She scattered the cards on the small table in front of her. After a few minutes of examining the cards he spoke again. "I see. Now care to tell me where did you get your hands on those cards?"

"I am sure the chancellor told you about my amnesia but I think you don't believe it."

"I wasn't really sure what to think but now I am sure you are hiding something." This amazed Azula even more. Here was a guy just like her, someone who could see through people. She smirked.

"Maybe I should go for direct assault." Azula thought. "Are you sure you want the truth?"

"If you think your story is unbelievable, you can try me."

"That explains the look in his eyes. Eyes of experience." "Well, if you want." Azula paused for a few seconds. "I am not from this world." Samejima was shocked at hearing this but Kaiba was unfazed. "So this guy has really experienced unnatural things before."

"So can you tell me a few things about your world?" Asked Kaiba.

"I don't think you are referring to my life story. Are you?"

"I am not interested in people's life story nor do I have the time for that. All I ask is describing your world a little and how you got here."

"Well to start. About a third of the people back in my world are born with the ability to bend elements. And the territory is divided by the elements people can bend which are four. Fire, air, water and earth. My world was currently in war and I was in the middle of a battle with the one person in each generation that can bend all four elements, people call him the avatar. And as for how I got here I have no idea." Samejima was shocked beyond belief by all this. It was the first time he was hearing anything like this. But Kaiba was just listening and taking in all she said.

"And what kind of element can you bend?" Azula just made a small sapphire flame in the palm of her hand which further shocked the chancellor but Kaiba was just smirking of amusement.

"You said, you were fighting this avatar. Don't you think he might have something to do with it?"

"I am not really sure. But there is possibility, that kid was the only one who could travel to the spirit world a back by will."

"And how did you get your hands on those cards?"

"Don't know. Something must have happened between when I went unconscious and the time you found me on this island."

"OK. Since you don't have anywhere to go in this world, you can stay on the island as a new student. As long as you don't make me kick you out of the island, or magically sent back to your world." With that the screen blacked out.

"Ok. Since you are here to stay as a student, you will be put in girl's dorm. I've already prepared for it to not waste much time." He pressed a button on a device in on his desk. "Neko-san would please bring the uniform I asked for." After minute later a woman with shoulder length black hair, blue eyes and wearing the same cloth as the doctor entered the room. She placed the set of clothes in the small table in front of Azula and left. She eyed the clothes and held up the…

"Do I really have to wear this?" Azula said clearly disgusted.

"Well, if you want to stay then you have to wear those." He chuckled in amusement.

"How can I leave this island?" To which the chancellor laughed even harder. "I am not really in the mood for jokes."

"Sorry about that." He stopped laughing and once again pressed the button on the device. "Neko-san, come to my office please." A few seconds later the black hair woman entered.

"Anything else you want, sir?" she said.

"Well, Azula here isn't really fond of skirts. Let her choose as new set of clothes for herself." He turned to Azula. "But you still have to wear the jacket. It is the uniform." Azula nodded and followed the woman out of the office to get herself some real clothing.

Review please. Thank you.
