Luckily for Oliver, the next day was Saturday. This meant that there was no class today. This was lucky because Oliver could barely more after his detention. He hobbled down to the cafeteria for breakfast. Johnny and Roberto were still there eating breakfast.
"Moring!" said Roberto cheerfully.
"Moring." replied Oliver. He stretched out on the set. "Oh, I'm so stiff." he groaned.
Oliver went to eating his breakfast. When he finished, he started a conversation with Roberto, and Johnny. "You know, the teachers here are weird." he said.
"What makes you say that?" asked Roberto.
"Will," replied Oliver, "Professer Toma is crazy, Professor Ginsea appears to be gender confused, Professor Asinda is boring, Professor Shilama is trying unsuccessfully to be a teenager, and Professor Higema is a demon!"
"I think it is just you." said Roberto. After finishing their breakfast's they walked to the main building. While they were in the lobby, Oliver heard someone calling him. He turned around to see Alexandra, and Alicia coming towards them.
"Who is she?" asked Johnny. "Your girlfriend?"
"She's my sister." said Oliver.
"How was yesterday?" asked Alexandra, having not hear them.
"Horrible. But on a lighter note, Alexandra, Alicia, and would like you to meet Johnny, and Roberto." said Oliver.
Before anything could be said, they heard a loud ruckus coming from outside. They rushed outside. An Obelisk Blue was picking on a bunch of freshman Slifer Reds.
"What's going on out here?" asked Alexandra.
The Obelisk Blue turned around. He was tall, and had black long hair. He stared at the group. His eyes paused over Alexandra for a second. Even in a wheelchair, Alexandra was very attractive.
"Dealing with Slifer slime, it's none of your business." said the Obelisk Blue; he then kicked one of the Slifer Reds as he tried to get up.
"Stop that!" shouted Alexandra.
"It's none of your business." said the Obelisk Blue again.
"Stop, or I'll…" began Alexandra.
"Or you'll do what? You're in a wheelchair and…" he stopped mid sentence, and smiled wickedly. "I'll tell you what. I'll duel you. If you win I'll leave them alone. If you lose, you have to go on a date with me."
"I accept!" said Alexandra.
"Hey! Wait a minute!" shouted Oliver.
"Don't worry Oliver." said Alexandra. "I can take this guy easily."
"Ok." said Oliver, but he was not happy.
Alicia rolled Alexandra over to the opposite side of the Obelisk Blue.
"Duel!" they said in unison.
"Ladies first." said the Obelisk Blue, "and my name is…um…Ben by the way."
"Alright Ben," said Alexandra. She drew a card. "I'll summon the Unhappy Girl in attack mode (100/0). I'll place one card face down, and end my turn."
Ben drew a card. "I'll summon Dark Effigy in attack mode (1500/0)." A monster that looked like a large black cube appeared on the field. "Dark Effigy, attack her Unhappy Girl!" The cube flew towards Unhappy Girl.
"I'll activate Spirit Barrier! This card will make it so I lose no life points as long as I have a monster on the field." Shouted Alexandra, as a large shield covered her.
"Either way, your monster is destroyed." said Ben, unconcerned.
"That's what you think!" said Alexandra. Dark Effigy smashed into the Unhappy Girl. But it wasn't destroyed. Instead, Dark Effigy looked as if it had dearly regretted want it had done.
"You see, Unhappy Girl's effect allows it to remain on the field" explained Alexandra. "And as an extra bonus, your monster can't attack!"
Ben looked frustratingly unconcerned. He shrugged. "All well. That was a bad on my part." He sighed, and looked down at his cards. "I'll place two cards facedown, and end my turn."
Alexandra drew a card. "I'll summon Pitch-Black Warwolf in attack mode (1600/600)."
"Whoa!" said Ben, mildly surprised. "Wasn't expecting that. I though you, as most of the girls I've dueled have, would use fairies."
"Well, I intend to break through those sexist barriers." said Alexandra. "Anyway, I'll have Pitch-Black Warwolf destroy your Dark Effigy, and since Pitch-Black Warwolf is face up on the field, you can't activate trap cards during your battle phase." Pitch-Black Warwolf jumped forward, and destroyed Dark Effigy. Ben's life points dropped from 4000-3900. "I'll place one card facedown, and end my turn."
Ben drew a card. "I'll activate my facedown Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your facedown card." Then a large gust appeared and blew away Alexandra's facedown card, which was Call of the Hunted.
'Strange,' thought Alexandra. 'Why didn't he destroy Spirit Barrier?'
"Next," continued Ben, "I'll summon Double Coston in attack mode (1700/1650). Double Coston, attack her Pitch-Black Warwolf." Double Coston flew forward, and destroyed Alexandra's Pitch-Black Warwolf. Because of Spirit Barrier, Alexandra's life points didn't change. "Then, I'll place one card facedown, and end my turn.
Alexandra drew a card. At this point, Alexandra was frustrated at the fact that Ben was not taking this duel seriously! "I'll activate Monster Reborn to bring back Pitch-Black Warwolf. Next, I'll sacrifice him to summon Millennium Scorpion in attack mode (2000/1800)." A large, hideous looking scorpion appeared on the field.
Ben chuckled. "Yet, another surprise! So you were serious about that 'Breaking sexist barriers' comment weren't you."
"Yes! Of course I was!" shouted Alexandra. She took a deep breath, trying to calm down. "Any way, I'll have Millennium Scorpion destroy your Double Coston."
"I'll activate Enchanted Javelin. This trap will increase my life points by the attack points of an attacking monster." said Ben lazily, as his life points increased to 5900. Millennium Scorpion then scurried over and destroyed Double Coston. Ben's life points dropped to 5600.
"Due to Millennium Scorpion's effect, it gains 500 attack points from every monster it destroys." said Alexandra as Millennium Scorpion's attack points rose to 2500. "I'll then and end my turn."
Ben drew a card. "I'll activate my own monster reborn to summon Dark Effigy. Then I'll sacrifice him to summon The End of Anubis in attack mode (2500/0). Now, End of Anubis, attack her Millennium Scorpion!" End of Anubis attacked Millennium Scorpion, and both monsters were destroyed. "Next I'll activate Scapegoat!" Four small scapegoat tokens appeared on the field. "Next, I'll activate Possession of Souls. If I sacrifice two tokens, I can summon two Possessed Soul tokens (4 stars / fiend / 500/500)." As his spell card appeared, to ghost flew into two of the scapegoat tokens. They then mutated into monsters. " Next, I'll use my Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy your Spirit Barrier. Now, my two Possessed Soul tokens attack your life points directly." Alexandra's life points dropped from 4000-3000. "I end my turn."
Alexandra drew a card. "I'll summon Gemini Elf in attack mode (1900/900). Now, Gemini Elf will attack one of your Possessed Soul tokens." Gemini Elf jumped forward and destroyed the Possessed Soul token. Ben's life points dropped from 5600-4200.
"Did I mention Possessed Soul token's special effect? If it is destroyed in battle, the monster that destroyed it losses 500 attack points." said Ben. Gemini Elf's attack points dropped to 1400.
"I end my turn." said Alexandra.
Ben drew a card. "I'll summon Dark Blade in attack mode (1800/1500). First, I'll have my second Possessed Soul token wage a suicide attack on your Gemini Elf." The Possessed Soul token charged towards Gemini Elf, but it was easily knocked away and destroyed, and Ben's life points dropped to 3300. Gemini Elf's attack points dropped to 900. "Now, I'll have Dark Blade destroy your Gemini Elf." Dark Blade charged towards Gemini Elf, and cut it in half. Alexandra's life points dropped from 3000-2100. "I'll end my turn.
Alexandra drew a card. "I'll activate Pot of Greed. This card allows me to draw two cards." Alexandra then drew two cards. "Next I'll summon Goblin Elite Attack Force in attack mode (2200/1500)."
"And again," said Ben, "you prove my theory about girl duelists is wrong."
"Oh shut up." muttered Alexandra. "Goblin Elite Attack Force will destroy your Dark Blade." Goblin Elite Attack Force destroyed Dark Blade, and Ben's life points dropped from 3300-2900. "Now due to its effect, Goblin Elite Attack Force switches to defense mode. I end my turn."
Ben drew a card. "I'll activate Dark Hole. This card will destroy all monsters on the field." A large black hole appeared over the field, and everything was sucked into it.
"I end my turn." he finished simply.
Alexandra drew a card, and smiled. "I'm going to end this duel right here, and now!"
"Oh really?" asked Ben.
"Yes." said Alexandra. "First, I activate Graceful Charity. This card allows me to draw three cards, and discard two. Next, I'll activate the spell card Shallow Grave. This allows us to special summon one monster facedown." They both summoned a facedown defense monster. "Next I'll sacrifice my facedown to summon Guardian Angel Joan in attack mode (2800/2000)."
"Hey!" shouted Ben. "You need two sacrifices!"
"True," said Alexandra, "But my facedown was Light Effigy, and its effect is that since I was sacrificing it to summon a light type monster, it counted as two sacrifices. Moving on, I'll now equip it with The Mighty Sword of the Heavens." Guardian Angel Joan's sword disappeared and turned into a large, shinning sword. "This card will get it a 300 attack point boost," Guardian Angel Joan's life points increased to 3100, "and allow her to attack you directly!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." said Ben.
Alexandra growled angrily. "Alright, you asked for it! Guardian Angel Joan, attack him directly!" Guardian Angel Joan flew up into the air, and soared down; bringing her sword down on Ben. When she hit, a large cloud of dust was whipped up. Ben's life points dropped to 0.
"Way to go sis!" shouted Oliver.
"Thanks, bro." she replied. She then looked over to where Ben had been. He was gone. "What? Where did he go?"
Under the cover of the dust cloud, Ben had run off to the cover of the forest. When he was far enough away, he stopped and leaned on a nearby tree.
"Howdy Ben!" someone said from behind him, in a stupid and overly-cheerful voice.
"Shut up Timothy!" said Ben, putting an emphasis on Timothy.
Timothy stepped out into a ray of sun light that penetrated the tree cover. "Oh come on! Was 'Ben' the best thing you could think of?"
"Well, at least my real name isn't that stupid, unlike yours." replied Ben.
"Does that mean I still have to call you Kyle or can I call you Ben?"
"Only Ben in public." said Kyle, "Kyle for when non-members aren't around." Kyle sighed. "By the way, is that girl, um…Alexandra, on that list of yours?"
"Let's see," said Timothy, pulling out a folded piece of paper. He infolded it and examined it. "Yep, one of the first I put on the list."
"Good. She is a good duelist. What about her brother?" asked Kyle.
"Nope. He isn't good enough according to Ryan." replied Timothy. "I think it is because the kid kind-of likes like that duelist we're not allowed to mention."
"Well, it doesn't matter." said Kyle. He started to walk away. "I'm going to the Ra Cafeteria. You want to come?"
"Sure!" said Timothy. Anything involving food got Timothy's interest. "By the way," added Timothy, "How is your sister?"
"I don't want to talk about it." said Kyle gloomily. And with that note, he walked off.
"Hey!" shouted Timothy, running after Kyle. "Wait for me!"
