I'm uploading this as I go instead of writing it my usual way. Write it til I feel it's done, look over it, and then upload it.

When everyone in the Red dorm came down for dinner, they expected a tiny fish and a meager bowl of rice. Instead they got a banquet fit for a king's castle. A 3 course meal for each student. Appetizers were simple sandwiches. The main course consisted of lobster and whole turkey with cream corn, bread and butter, mashed potatoes, and homemade soup. Dessert was a 3-tiered cake with strawberries. Various ciders and fruit juices set for drinks.

Prof. Akimoto appeared from behind the curtain separating the dining area from the kitchen. "Good evening. My name is Prof. Akimoto and I'll be your new headmistress. I hope you all enjoy the meal I've prepared. I know it's not much compared to Obelisk's food, but I hope it's enough to make you feel I how much I hold highly of each of my students." She bowed, gracefully and they bowed back.

Comments were thrown around. "Looks too good to eat." "What if we get in trouble for eating food that rich." Jaden already beat them to the food.

"If you guys aren't gonna eat it, I will. No way I'm letting this go to waste" he said while munching on a sandwich.

Akimoto giggled a little. "Please eat your fill. I can always make more."

Then the students rushed the table and within an hour the food was gone, except for a few slices of cake.

Jaden and his roommates dropped in their room, rubbing their bellies. Hassleberry rested against the wall, Syrus in a chair, and Jaden laid on his bed.

"I tell ya, this soldier has never had better grub." Hassleberry said feeling a little sleepy.

Syrus tried to hold back a yawn, but failed. "If we keep eating like this every night, we'll need to get bigger clothes." Syrus fell asleep where he sat.

Jaden, not really feeling to sleepy, walked outside and stared at the ocean behind his room. Then lifted his hand to his left cheek. His eyes softened in a state of sad confusion. 'Why?' he thought. He reached into his deck holder and pulled out "Yubel" and "Legendary Princess". "Yubel, can we talk for a bit?" he said to the card.

Then, the image on the card appeared before him. "What's wrong, Jaden? Why do you seem so sad?" it said to him in a male/female split voice.

"These new students and this new teach came today. They seemed okay, but.."

"'But' what? Are they hurting you?"

"No, it's just the teach. We've met before." He rubbed his arms with his hands like he was cold. "But..I can't tell anyone."

"Tell anyone what?"

"Guess you overheard." Jaden said, with no real emotion in his tone.

"I saw you talkin' with Yubel and decided to see what's up, but now, I wish I didn't." Jesse leaned against the railing. "So, you really met her before?"

"Yeah. But I can't tell you more."

"Is someone up there?" Prof. Akimoto called out. She came up the steps with what was left of the cake, 4 pieces. "One for each of us. How lucky" she giggled.

"But teach. There's only three of us. You have four pieces." Jesse said, but she ignored him and them each a piece. Then handed one to Yubel.

"You can see her?" Jaden asked, stunned.

"Of course." she replied. "How could I not? Everyone at Duel University can see them."

"Really?" Jaden asked, not really believing her. "By the way, why are you here?" Her only reply was a small giggle as she left.

The trio were even more baffled by this weird girl. Although, Jesse thought she was cute at first, then thought she was just plain strange. "At least she can make a darn good cake."

Jaden never touch the cake at supper. He never cared for sweets since his sister left.

"Jay, if you're not gonna eat it, pass it to me." Jesse said, with half his slice gone already.

Jaden decided to try a bite and was shocked that he was eating his favorite cake from childhood. He turned back to look at Prof. Akimoto. 'Only one person knows how to make this cake and know I'd eat it.' His eyes softened a bit. 'It must be you..Jaya.'


What do you think so far? Legendary Princess was a card I made up, but anyone can use it if they want to. I'll upload more soon, since I'm doing nothing but job hunting.
