Whew! Okay recap: Noel tells everyone that she is related to Jaden and the gang finds out that Nemesis is Jason, Noel's long-lost brother. Now they face a threat from their first year.
Jordi's POV
We were all standing in Chancellor Sheppard's office, waiting for Ms. Fontanie to arrive with the DNA results for Noel and Jaden.
"I can't believe Jaden is related to you, Noel. Why didn't you just tell me in the first place?" I asked.
Noel looked with at me with sorrow in her eyes when she spoke, "I guess I wanted to be sure before I said something."
Ms. Fontanie then walked in with a confused look on her face.
"So did the test results come back negative?" Alexis asked her.
I heard a tinge of nervousness in her voice and I wondered why she sounded so nervous.
Ms. Fontaine shook her head frowning.
"Noel and Jaden are indeed brother and sister. The strange thing is I didn't know that Jaden was adopted nor that he had a family member that ran away." She said.
Jaden looked at Noel with a grin on his face.
"Well, I guess I better get used to calling you sissy." He said his grin growing wider.
After he said that, we all burst out laughing, especially Noel who was depressed these last few days.
The door opened and Aster walked in followed by Sheppard.
"Well, well. If it isn't the two I met on the boat. So how you guys been doing here at Duel Academy?" He asked.
Both me and Noel said we were fine and doing our hardest in our classes.
Sheppard then spoke up.
"I'm afraid I must cut the pleasantries short. We all face a grave danger. As I told you back at the Slifer Red dorm, the Sacred Beast Cards have been stolen." He said his brow scrunching together.
"How could have they been taken? I thought you hid the spirit gate keys after the first incident with them." Chazz asked.
Sheppard looked in each of our faces before he explained.
"It appears that someone with tremendous power was able to bypass the entire spirit gates and free the beasts."
"Yubel couldn't have done it. She's…gone." Jaden pointed out, hesitating a bit.
I started thinking about who had the power to cause this mess.
When it finally hit me, Noel and the others connected the dots as well.
We all shouted one name.
"JASON!"
"It's got to be Jason. Only he has power to do something this drastic." Atticus spoke.
Sheppard seem to think about this and then slowly nodded.
"It makes sense. He has the power of Darkness at his disposal." Sheppard muttered to himself.
"Power of Darkness? How did he gain the power of Darkness?" Blair asked overhearing Sheppard.
But before Sheppard could reply, we were knocked off our feet as an earthquake shook the island. For a few minutes, we couldn't get our footing. Then as soon as it caught us by surprise, it stopped. Wondering what had happen, we checked outside and saw a creature similar to Slifer appear and then disappear from a clearing. We took off for the clearing immediately.

Jason's POV
I had defeated an Obelisk blue student with Uria's power and sensed the children who befriended my sister. I turned around and faced them, my hood lifted. Sis got here first and stared at me in disbelief, and then the others caught up with her, panting heavily.
"Bro, why did you become this…this monster and why do you want the Sacred Beasts?" She asked pathetically.
I glared at her with malice in my eyes. The glare made her take a small step back.
"I became this 'monster' as you so put it because of our family. It was them that made me Nemesis and for what they did they will pay." I snarled.
The brunette with a sun burnt color on top must've overheard us because he jumped into our conversation.
"Come on, bro. You seriously can't mean that." he said.
I shot him a glare from my blood red eyes.
"Stay out of this! It doesn't concern you, boy." I growled.
"Actually it does, Jas. This is the brother who was given up for adoption, Jaden Yuki." Noel announced.
On the outside I crossed my arms, but on the inside I was shocked. Jaden Yuki was the brother I tried to allow into our family, but he was denied that right.
"Bro, come back to us. Please so that we can be a family once again." Jaden pleaded.
I looked uncomfortably from Noel to Jaden, but then the raven haired boy I had defeated jumped at me while a dirty blonde haired girl shouted.
"CHAZZ, DON'T!!!" the girl shouted.
I dissipated into darkness making the boy continue to fly forward until he hit a tree trunk with a THUNK. I then returned to my solid form and asked them a question that they had on their minds.
"You want to know why I took the Sacred Beasts cards?"
Noel and her friends, except the boy called Chazz who was out cold, nodded yes. I smiled for now the truth would be revealed.
"I took them because they are our cards!"
"What is that suppose to mean, Jason?" asked a blue and gold haired girl.
I looked at her and stiffened.
Jordi. What is she doing here? I thought.
"It means that they were ours to begin with. But Seto Kaiba took them away, with money of course, and hid them here on this island." I explained after I got over my shock.
A big bald man looked perplexed until he asked a question.
"Would your father be Jonathan Nexus?" He asked.
Noel and I looked at him, confusion written on Noel's face.
"Yes. He is our father." Both of us replied.
Then the bald man seemed to sigh before he spoke again.
"Then the Beast cards are yours, Jason." He said.
I smiled triumphant at the victory I had.
"Thank you, sir. I look forward to being the representive for Duel Academy against North School."
With that said, I called to the shadows and they formed a portal underneath me and I disappeared from their view.

Jordi's POV
I was angry, sad, and most of all, surprised at Chancellor Sheppard. I guess I wasn't the only one who felt this way. Alexis, Atticus, Jaden, and Chazz, who had come to when Jason left, felt this way as well. They demanded an explanation for why Jason got to keep the sacred beasts cards. He shook his head and mouthed 'not here'. He then mentioned that we should discuss this matter in his office.

Sheppard's Office
(Jaden's POV)
"Why did you do that, sir? I thought the Sacred Beasts cards had power that couldn't be controlled." Alexis asked.
I nodded and looked at Chancellor Sheppard with a grim set face.
Jaden, you look so cute like that. A feminine voice said in my head.
Yubel, now isn't the time for you to be speaking to me. And in case you forgot, I have feelings for someone else. I said back to her.
That got Yubel to shut up just in time for me to hear Sheppard's explanation.
"I allowed Jason to have those cards because they are in fact his. Now before you ask how, I believe I should tell you the story. 15,000 years ago, there were priests in Atlantis who had the power to summon spirits from the netherworld. These monsters are, in fact, known today but as cards." Sheppard began.
He let this piece of information sink in and then he continued.
"One of the priests, who was also the emperor of Atlantis at the time, is Jason's, Noel's, and Jaden's ancestor. He had command of the three most powerful spirits in the entire empire. They were Raviel, Lord of Phantasms, Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder, and Uria, Lord of Searing Flames; the three Sacred Beasts. But darkness grew in the Emperor because he couldn't find an Empress to share his kingdom. So he used the power of the Sacred Beasts to sink Atlantis into the sea so that no one could have happiness."
"So he was agitated because he couldn't find love?" Atticus asked.
Chazz then snickered.
"Looks like he could have used a few lessons from you, Atticus." He said with a smile.
Sheppard shot them a glare which was scary enough to make them shut up.
"This is no laughing matter, you two. The emperor's name was Nemesis. So that must mean that Jason has the soul of Nemesis. That means that Jason has command over the Sacred Beast cards. But that also means that it's Jason's destiny to find love or sink the island."
Jordi looked like she was going to cry just then. But she held them in and asked the Chancellor a question that was on my mind.
"Was there anyone in love with him 15,000 years ago?" she asked.
Sheppard seemed to ponder about this and then spoke.
"Yes, there was peasant girl who was madly in love with Emperor Nemesis, but her sisters used her to play a trick on him which broke his heart in two and that also caused his soul to split as well. In fact, that girl felt so horrible that she took her own life. She is your ancestor , Jordi."
That was when Jordi burst into tears and ran from the room.
"Jordi! Come back!" I cried.
I started to take off after her but I was held back by Alexis.
"She needs time to herself, Jay. I suggest that let her have that." Alexis said gently.
"Oh alright, I guess you're right Lex." I said a little sadly.
"What we should do is chose our rep for the school duel." Mindy suggested.
"On that account you're right, Mindy. I understand Jason is eyeing the position and I can see why. He is the most logical choice. But I want to give him a fight for the post, so is there anyone who wants to face him?" Sheppard asked.
Before anyone could answer, Sheppard's computer beeped. He looked at it and slowly nodded, his eyes gleaming.
"Hey Chanc, who is it from?" Chazz asked, curiosity setting in.
"That was from Jason. He wants to chose his own opponent for the spot for the school duel. I agreed and he will let me know who the lucky person is. There is another message and it's from Foster. He has not one rep but two, so it's going to be a tag team match." Chancellor Sheppard replied.
So someone has the power to control the Sacred Beast cards. This may make a fun match. Yubel said to me.
I didn't answer because I knew she spoke the truth. It would be a match to remember. The question was who was Jason going to duel.
The truth is finally out. Jason has the spirit of the Emperor of Atlantis who ruled the entire known world 15,000 years ago. But unbeknownst to both Jason and the GX crew a new evil is rising and it is determined to drag the world into eternal darkness.
