Chapter 11: A Second Beginning.
It was a breezy Sunday after noon as Izual walked through the halls of the school. He seemed to have removed his white bucket hat. His once meaningful hat meant nothing to him now. It had been one month since the death of Shade. The death of Shade had affected him several ways, even his deck had changed. By losing Shade, it was as if he had lost a part of him. He lost his reason to fight, which lead him to being in a unhappy mood. The worst part is that he knew he had done it, and was too weak and foolish to have found any other way, even though there wasn't. His grades had dropped so much that Crowler moved him to front of the class, taking away his seat from Jasmine, who he seldom talked after that night. Among his depression, there was anger. Anger at himself for not finding a solution, anger for not striking his best friend. Angry at Shade for falling for Lilith's trap. However, Shade's death also made him feel a certain feeling of freedom. Shade had always been someone who told him what to do, and just someone he looked up. With him gone, he felt like trying new things, a strange rise of confident among his sadness. In overall, he had never felt more lonely. Even though he had always been lonely since he started chasing Shade, he always kept the hope that he could break Lilith's grasp on him, but now that he was gone, he felt the cold slap of reality. Izual rested his hand against a wall before entering a door.
"Just gotta let it go…" said Izual, sighing a bit as he opened the doors and noticed the crowd was full. He was surprised at this. There seemed to be a lot of dueling in the testing places. A lot of boys were cheering loudly, and the girls just watching the duels commenting. He had wondered why they were duels today, and why everyone was cheering. That is, till he noticed something in common with all the duels. They all involved girls, about the same age as Izual and the rest. They all seemed to be wearing a pink uniform, with short skirts. "A uniform? What is going on?" asked Izual to himself.
"So, confused yet intrigued?" asked Bastion, who was lying against the wall. Izual turned to face him.
"What's going on?" he asked, intrigued by the duels.
"It seems that there was a problem with one of our sister schools. They had a bomb threat, and they evacuated. It was the right call, as some of the rooms did explode, damaging the over structure of the school. Big mess." said Bastion. Izual looked at the duels then at Bastion. He was still confused.
"Why are they over here then?" asked Izual, wondering why they didn't just go to Japan.
"They
will be remaining here until the school is fixed. Of course, they
have to pass the entrance exam…" said Bastion. Izual let out a
"ah" of understanding. He noticed the big concentration of guys
in a certain duel, while others were spread. Some of the girls were
watching few of the duels as well.
"So what's so special about
that duel with all the guys over there?" asked Izual, as he grew
curious of that duel. Bastion smiled a bit.
"I'll show you." said Bastion, and with that he started walking towards the duel, to get a better view. As they got to a balcony to see from on top, due to over crowdness from the guys, Izual could see the duel. From the distance, he could only see the back of the female duelist. She seemed to have long red hair, that flowed beautifully. He looked at the life points.
Female Duelist: 3700
Proctor: 300
"Wow, the proctor is lucky. He is barely in there." said Izual, as he noticed the life points. Bastion chuckled.
"And that's what keep the guys so entertained. She is merely toying with him. Putting a good show, not to mention she is pretty cute." said Bastion. Izual gave a look Bastion. He didn't generally make those comment, thus it surprised him. He looked at the field. She seemed to have young lady with blond hair, wearing a swift saber, with a mesh armor. She was very beautiful, despite her outfight ready for battle. Easily recognized by the fan boys as D.D. Warrior Lady. The proctor seemed to have a big stone-based monster in defense guarding his life points. Also easily recognized as Giant Soldier of Stone.
"She
seems to have pretty good looking monster cards." said Izual,
referring at D.D. Warrior Lady.
"Which also attracts the
attention of the guys, though beyond that, D.D. Warrior Lady is
pretty strong. As you know, she can remove herself and a monster she
battles with." said Bastion. Izual raised his eyebrow. If D.D.
Warrior Lady can do, then why hasn't the duelist already commanded
D.D. Warrior Lady to do so with the Giant Soldier of Stone, then
attack with a new monster to win the match?
"Then why doesn't she?" asked Izual, intrigued by this choice of action.
"Because she doesn't need to do so at the moment, she wants to show everyone what she can do, I assume." said Bastion as he noticed the female duelist summon a monster. But you couldn't really call what she summoned a monster. It was female monster, with light pink hair, and big nurse hat with a big heart on it. She also big wings for her petite body. She seemed to be carrying a big needle, and by big I mean humongous. She had to use both hands to carry her, and even then, it was surprising she would carry that. She also had white gloves, with a nice red and white outfit. The guys went crazy, recognizing the card as Injection Fairy Lily.
"Wow." said Izual, remarking the beauty of the monster. "From the looks of that needle, I can see why guys are cheering so." Bastion laughed at this.
"Agreed." said Bastion, as he watched the female duelist command D.D. Warrior Lady to crash into Giant Soldier of Stone. The female duelist took 500 life point damage, however, due to D.D. Warrior Lady's effect, she removed herself and the giant stone soldier. Then Lily went for the attack, but she stopped before injecting the proctor. The female duelist said something which they couldn't quite hear but the guys cheered as the injection grew twice it's size, as if it wasn't big enough. The nurse moved quickly and "poked" the proctor with the big needle, ending the duel. The crowd cheered as the Proctor shook the female duelist's hand and they started walking outside of the dueling place. The female duelist turned around to look at her crowd. Izual finally got a look at her face, but not very close however he had made eye contact is his eyes widened for a moment. She seemed to have not noticed as she turned around and left the area.
"Crazy."
said Izual to himself. She looked familiar…somehow, he just
couldn't pinpoint.
"I know what you mean. Just how big can
that needle become? Talk about those people who are scared of
needles." said Bastion. Izual looked at Bastion
"Oh?
Oh. Needle, yeah, big." said Izual, somewhat distracted then heard
a boom on one side. Most of the boom was drowned by the fan boys, but
he could still see it. He had heard many booms from a duel, so he was
somewhat curious. It was another female duelist with straight,
shoulder-length, medium brown hair. Izual wondered why there were
bombs till he saw the monster on her side of the field.
"It's
Gearfried the Iron Knight." said Bastion. "I think I know what
strategy she is using."
"Well, I don't, fill me in?" asked Izual, curious. Bastion chuckled, looking at the life points.
Female duelist: 1300
Proctor: 2500
"Do you know the effect of Gearfried, the Iron Knight?" asked Bastion as he pointed to knight standing on the female duelist's side. He seemed to be very protected. Izual couldn't see how he could create explosions.
"Something about destroying cards?" guessed Izual, not knowing much about the card.
"Gearfried destroy any spell card that are equipped to him." said Bastion. This still didn't explain.
"So?" asked Izual. Bastion grinned as he looked at the proctor's field, only having 1 face-down monster left.
"Observe." said Bastion, as he pointed to the female duelist flipping her face-down card. From it, several chains wrapped themselves around Gearfried, with explosives.
"Hey, it's Blast with Chain" said Izual, surprised at the card.
"Quite, gives a nice 500 attack boost, but since it's Gearfried he will destroy, and if you know Blast with Chain OTHER effect…"
"It blows up one card on the field when it's destroyed by a card effect." said Izual, as he watched the explosives be removed by Gearfried's armor, and sent right at the face-down monster, destroying it completely, making another boom. "Nice." She summoned another monster, and attacked the Proctor directly for the win.
"Well, that's a very interesting deck. Would be nice to duel it, don't you think?" asked Bastion. Izual stroke his chin.
"Yeah, but we don't even know her name." said Izual.
" It's
May." said Jaden as he popped seemingly out of nowhere.
"Where'd
you come from?" asked Izual, wondering where he pop out of.
"Ask my mom. She wouldn't tell me." said Jaden, which made Izual and Bastion look at each other. "But yeah, her name is May, or Diana May I suppose, though the girls are calling her just May."
"Shouldn't you be with Pichu rather than finding about the new girls?" asked Bastion.
"Yeah, I was. She was watching the duel, but I took a break. So what do you guys think of the new competition?" asked Jaden.
"Intriguing, to say the least." said Izual, thinking about it.
"Yes, quite. But what are the chances of an all-girl dueling school would just get damaged?" asked Bastion.
"Dunno, blame the crappy author." said Izual, they agreed.
"So did you guys hear? There's also a guy here." Jaden turned to Bastion confused.
"A guy? From an all girl's school?" asked Jaden, confused.
"Yeah,
I'm not entirely sure on how he got on the boat, but he did. They
did on a duel on him this morning, it seems no one caught it however.
Makes me curious about his deck." said Bastion. Then, all the
duelist seemed to leaving.
"Looks like the duels are over…"
said Izual as he stepped out with Bastion and Jaden through the
doors, into the grassy environment. The crowd slowly filled
everywhere, as the new girls started going to their dorms.
"We'll probably get announcement on this, eh?" asked Izual. Bastion nodded.
"Hey look, it's the Gearfried duelist." said Bastion as he pointed to the girl walking a bit aimlessly. They walked up to her. "You need any help?" She jumped back, surprised from their encounter. From the closer distance, you could see her warm hazel eyes, that were almost comforting.
"Sorry." said May as she recovered her balance. "You caught me by surprise…so…who are you guys?" The guys introduced themselves.
"Nice duel there. I like that deck." said Izual.
"Thanks, it's my own creation." said May, proud of her deck.
"Very successful from what we saw." said Bastion.
"Yeah! Awesomely cool!" said Jaden. "We should duel sometime." May smiled.
"That would be nice." said May.
"Hey,
I want to du-" said Izual, then his eye caught something else. It
was the other female duelist, with red hair. She walked close to
them, but not noticing as she was talking to other girls. Izual could
see her eyes from there, beautiful green. This stroke him with even
more of a familiar sensation. Who was this chick, that gave him such
a familiar feeling.
"Izual?" asked Jaden, poking Izual. Izual
snapped from this thinking.
"Huh? Oh. Sorry. I wanted to duel her too…" finishing his statement, he was a bit confused. May was about to say something when they made announcement to go to the dorm.
"What dorm did you get?" asked Bastion.
"Obelisk blue. Well, I'll see you guys later." said May as she left.
"There is definitely something about these girls…" said Izual to himself as the group started walking to the dorm.
