Later that noon, Judai woke up. She rubbed her eyes, and washes her face with water in the bathroom. She walked back to her bedroom and looked at a clock on her desk.
"Three o' clock? Oh my God! I must get this book back to library!" Judai picked the book from her desk and hurriedly slipped her shoes on, and locked her door. She ran, leaving her dorm to get to the the Academy center building's library.
But, before she arrived to the front gate, she stopped and gasped when she saw Johan showing up from behind the trees in forest near the way from Osiris dorm. She couldn't face him. She was still upset with the boy, because of what happened this morning.
Suddenly, Amon, Jim, and O'Brien are show up from Johan's back. The girl scared and walks back slowly.
"Judai…"
"Wh… what do you want…? Why you are here…?"
"I'm… sorry with what happened before… I… I didn't mean…"
Johan walked closer to the girl and whispering softly, made Judai feel better than before. She knew, Johan was serious with his words.
"I, It's okay then… but… why…?"
"What have you done with Miss Judai, Johan…?" asked Jim with Karen at his back.
"You guys are hiding something from us…?" Amon smiling with curiousity at his face.
"N, no… it's nothing…" Johan tried to cover his blushing face.
Judai was hiding behind Johan. She looked a little bit scared, because she did not know well Amon, Jim, and especially O'Brien, who had no smile on his face at all.
"C, Can I help you all?"
"Oh, how rude we are… I'm so sorry Miss Judai, we didn't mean to scare you… we're here to help you…" Amon bowed down his body politely, so Judai could see his eyes.
"Yes, we will tell you everything we know…" Jim smiled at the girl. Johan held her shoulders, so Judai did not look scared anymore.
"I heard from Johan, Edo Phoenix already told you everything he knows… So, this is our time to tell you…" O'Brien spoke slowly.
Judai looked at Johan's eyes. Johan smiled at her.
"Okay…"
And then, Judai and the four transferred students found a place to talk.
They told everything they knew about Judai's pasts. Even about Haou… the sun was already set and the lamps on the garden were shows up they light.
"Haou…? Jaden…? He was…"
"Do you remember…?" asked Jim slowly.
Now, there were so many flashbacks in Judai's mind. Everything… Cobra-sensei, their duels, another dimension, submarine on the desert, monsters attacking them, zombie's, Yubel… Jesse… and Jaden…
The flashbacks make Judai dizzy. Judai rested her hands on the garden's stone table and held her head.
"Ju, Judai…! Are you okay…?" Johan stood and held her shoulders. Amon, Jim, and O'Brien panicking too.
"Miss Judai…!"
"N, no… I'm fine… Just… too much flashbacks… and they make me confused…"
"Grrrr…" Karen showed her worried face too. She rubbed her head to Judai's leg. The girl smiled at the female crocodile. Judai remembered her after Jim introduced Karen to Judai 'again'.
"I'm fine, Karen… Thank you…" Judai patted Karen's head.
"Thank you very much for you all, minna-san… I really appreciate this all… You're come from far away to help me… Hountouni doumo arigatou gozaimasu…"
Judai stood and bowed. The four boys faced her groggily. Judai had changed much. She looked more like a lady now. Always bowing down her body with curtsy, and use polite words in the chats. When people laughed, she just smiled, chuckled, or giggled. And especially, when eating.
"He, hey… we're just want to help you like this… You didn't need to thanks us…!"
"We're so glad we can help you…"
Judai faced them and smiled. But then, she realized the book on her hand.
"Oh, I must go to library…! I Hope it's not closed yet… Excuse me, minna-san…" Judai bowed again, and walked hurriedly to the building.
"Let us take you to there…" Amon stood and asked her.
Judai stopped and smile at them. "It's fine, I can go by myself… Thank you for your kindness, Amon-san… Excuse me, minna-san…"
Amon, Jim, O'Brien, and Johan were just can see each other after the girl leave them. The Academy was getting darker because of the night. Just lamps made the island little bit brighter.

"Please… I will get fined by the library if I give the book back tomorrow…"
"But, the library is closed… I'm so sorry…"
"Bu, but… library was closed at 7.00 pm… Now still 6.58 pm… Please…"
The eye-glassed student let a sigh at the Osiris girl. He really wanted to help her, but the library was closed by order from the Academy.
"Please, help her… she was late because of us…"
Suddenly, the four transferred students were standing behind Judai. They begged the library keeper boy to help Judai.
"Hhh… Okay, I let you this time… but please, don't let this happen again Yuki-san…"
"Thank you very much! I'll do better next time…"
Judai was smiling with relief.
She bowed down to thanks to the transferred boys.
"Thank you very much, minna-san… I'm so appreciate this…"
"Hey, I, its fine…!"
"Yeah, this is really our fault…!"
"Yes…!"
"We're so glad we could help you… really…!"
Judai smiled again to them. She was so glad in this day.
"Now, let us take you to your dorm…"
"Eh? But I'll be fine by myself…"
Johan and the others shook their head.
"No, no… we can't let a lady walk alone in the darkness…"
"Besides… your dorm is near forests…"
As long as they walked to Judai's dorm, Amon was talking about his family business, and looked like Judai was so understanding about business world.
"I just realized, you have to known much about business world, Miss Judai…"
"I'm glad… thank you, Amon-san…"
"Is your father's job in business world?" asked Jim.
"Yes it is…"
"I see… that's why you know much about this… you are always helping him on his job, aren't you…?" asked Johan. Judai smiling at him. "No… not much… but I'll do my best if he needs me… because my mother needs me more …"
"Your mother's working too…?" asked O'Brien.
Judai smile was getting smaller, she shook her head slowly, "No, she's not… her body is so weak… She can't do too much exercise… that's why I'd do my best to help her… even, she has some maids taking care of her…"
"Oh… I'm sorry…"
"It's fine…" Judai smiled again.
Not for long, they arrived at Judai's dorm.
"Oh, I forgot… These are for you all…"
Amon picked up some letter's from his uniform's pocket.
"What is this…?"
"Invitation for you all to my family business party…"
"What party?"
"Garam Finance's birthday party… There'll be so much big guests to come… but I still want to invite my friends along…"
"Big guests…? Who are they…?"
"Well, like Manjyoume group, Kaiba Corporation, Industrial Illusions,… and much more…"
"Waaaaw… this will be a really big birthday party…" Jim opened the invitation letter.
O'Brien looked a little bit confused. "What we must wear…?"
"Maybe you guys can have a tux…?" asked Amon.
"Yes… I think I can borrow my friend's…"
"Hey, you're not planning something again, are you…?" asked Johan with suspicious.
Amon sweated dropped at Johan's scary eyes. Well, no wonder… he still remembered what Amon had done before…
"No, I'm not… Don't worry…"
O'Brien and Jim were laughed at them. Judai just wondered what are they were talking about. Because she was not really remembering all of her pasts yet.
"Good night, then…"
"Good night, Judai…"
"Good night, minna-san… Thank you for everything of this day…"
The boys smiled at her, and walked to leave the Osirisk dorm.
"She is so cute, isn't she?" Amon smiled at the other boys.
"I agree with you, mate…" Jim smiled too.
And O'Brien nodded. "I admit it…"
"Hey, what are you guys talking about…?" Johan let out a little harsh tone at his words.
"Awww… don't be jealous, Johan…" Amon teased the shorter boy. Johan blushed deeply.
Jim and O'Brien couldn't hold their laugher.

Darkness world… in the night, the sky was too dark and there was no moon or stars. Just lamps from villager's house, which made the night brighter a little.
"How's the food supplies…?"
"We did send them to villager's houses, Your Majesty… But I'm not sure, they can survive a week with that all if they can save it…" the monster gave Jesse a report. The King just stood near the castle's window. He said nothing. And he just left the main hall… to the Queen's room.
He opened the door quietly. He kneeled down near the sleeping Queen.
"Jaden…"
He wanted to touch her cheek. But he remembered, about the shield on Jaden's body.
He looked at the Queen's beautiful face.
"Jaden… please… wake up… We need you…"
Jesse held her hand without thinking anymore. And he realized something…
"What…? I can… touch her…? Jaden…?"
Jesse touched her face.
There was just silence. No power which protected her anymore.
Jesse stood, but his eyes were still locking at Jaden's face.
"Jaden…"
He stroked Jaden's cheek slowly.
"You know…? Maybe that old turtle was right…"
He stopped at his words. His face was closer to Jaden's. And now he could feel the taste of the rose colored lips on his own. The kiss was so soft and short. But Jesse could feel it…
"… I think… I love you…"

Normal World:
"I think you love him…"
"E, excuse me…?"
"Oh, you think so, Yubel??? I DID think so!"
Judai was surrounded by her friends from the deck in her room.
Now they're eyed their mistress with a really curious look. Because of Yubel's words, and Burst lady was agreeing with her.
"Do you really love Johan, Judai???" Neos asked with a really close face to her.
"Wow! I'm so agreeing with it! Johan is a good boy for you!" Bubbleman cheered up with Hane Kuriboh.
"B, but, guys…"
"Judai, honey… face it… you were really down when you have little fight with him…"
"Yubel! That's not just a little! Johan didn't trust me and accused Edo! It's…!"
"It's fine now! And… how about yourself…? What do you think about him?" Burst Lady was so excited. She held Judai tightly.
"W, well… he's a nice person…"
"Look, if he really is a nice person, he'll never accuse someone just like that… except…"
Yubel and Burst Lady looked at each other with grin at their face.
"Except what…?"
"… except, if he jealous… of course!" Airman added to Yubel's words with smile, and that made Judai blush madly.
"Y, you mean… Is he…?"
"He loves you! That's the gospel of truth!" said Bubbleman. Judai just fell silent and blushing. Her monsters were smiling.
"Judai… we really trust him…"
"We will help you!"
Judai was smiling at her cheering spirits. "Thank you very much, minna-san…"
"So… how about your pasts…? Do you remember all…?"
Judai sighed.
"No… not all… yet…"
"You mean… you still can't remember something…?"
"Yes… about this 'Jaden' or 'Haou' person…"
Yubel fell silent.
"Judai… Jaden had you possessed… so it means… that was not your consciousness, that's why you can't remember 'Jaden's' parts…"
The monsters and Jaden were listening at Yubel.
"Jaden was your dark personality… or let say… your darkness soul… You already told about what Johan said… about light and darkness soul in a body… he's right about it… You must find Jaden in yourself… and meet Jaden in person…"
"Johan said… he had darkness soul in his body… is this Jaden like Johan's soul too…?"
"Yes…did Johan and his friends tell you about it when I possessed his body…?"
Judai nodded.
"My darkness power was left on his body… and that makes 'Jesse' live in him…"
"Jesse…?"
"Johan's darkness soul's name…"
"People who have consciousness about their light and darkness souls and can communicate with them, and leave them in balance with their own power, soul, and body…they usually can see spirits…"
Now Judai understood, why she couldn't remember Jaden well…
-
"Good night, Judai…"
"Good night, guys…"
Judai's monsters were back in their own deck. Judai was getting ready to slew sleep with Hane Kuriboh beside her on her comfortable bed.
She closed her sleepy eyes.
