A/N: Here's the long-awaited chapter 26 of Pro League Adventures. The duel will be a two-part one that begins in chapter 27. I had planned for it to start here but because I wrote 2 new stories I had to push it back at least one chapter so this is sort of like a duel prep. chapter and will be on the short side for time-related reasons. Enjoy this chapter though guys! Warning: Chazz may be considered OOC in this chapter as he doubts that he can beat Sartorius, having lost the only other time the 2 faced one another. So don't flame me as you've been warned.
Last Time
"I'm afraid your wrong Chazz, my old friend." A calm serpent-like voice said from the shadows of the other side of the arena.
Chazz's eyes widened in horror as he felt his skin turn as white as a ghost.
"That voice…but it can't be. It's not possible!" Chazz murmured in shock.
The voice chuckled and stepped on to the duel arena, the lights illuminating him.
He had long flowing blue-purple hair and deep violet eyes. There was no mistaking who it was.
"SARTORIUS?!" Chazz screamed at the top of his lungs, disbelieving of what he was seeing in front of him as his designated dueling opponent.
End Flashback
Alexis looked on, feeling just as shocked and as scared as Chazz was.
Jaden and Syrus' eyes were wide with fear and dismay.
"Sartorius? How did you get here?! Tell me!" Chazz demanded.
Sartorius chuckled softly, as though he were undaunted by Chazz's threat.
"What's wrong Chazz? I thought we were friends." Sartorius replied almost teasingly.
"ARE YOU INSANE?! YOU TRIED TO USE ME TO TAKE OVER THE GOD DAMNED WORLD!!" Chazz screamed at the top of his lungs.
"That's all in the past, Chazz." Sartorius answered, again not bothered by Chazz's outburst at him.
"What do you mean by that?" Chazz growled.
"You act as though you disliked the Society of Light, but deep down you did. You can't hide anything from the all-knowing eyes of destiny." Sartorius replied.
"Oh yeah? Well it doesn't take your destiny to know that damned Society is long gone!" Chazz snarled.
"He's right Sartorius. When Sartorius beat you at the end of his second year the Society of Light was disbanded!" Alexis called to the evil psychic.
Sartorius chuckled softly. "You'd be wrong, dear Alexis." He replied.
"Yeah and why is that?" Chazz and Alexis both asked.
Sartorius laughed slightly. "Because Chazz and Alexis, I plan to re-build the Society of Light!" He called.
Chazz's eyes widened in complete horror upon hearing the evil teen's statement.
"I…don't know if I can do this…" Chazz said, for the first time in months feeling uneasy and unsure of himself.
"Chazz whatever you do, don't you dare lose this!" Alexis and Jaden both shouted at the same time.
"Lex…he beat me last time we dueled and he's probably stronger now." Chazz told her, still feeling a bit anxious and unsure of himself.
Blair walked from her seat behind the Overseas Champions to where Chazz could see her.
"You can do it, Chazzy! Just concentrate. I believe in you my prince!" She called to him, hoping that would inspire her boyfriend.
Hearing those words from Blair seemed to restore the youngest Princeton's confidence.
"Your right Blair. I can beat him this time. Because I'm fighting for more than just myself this time. I'm fighting to keep you safe!" Chazz replied to her, a passionate fire now burning in his eyes.
Blair's eyes filled with happy tears. "Oh Chazzy, that was so beautiful." She said, wiping a tear from her cheek as she blushed.
"Aww…" The rest of the group excluding Zane cooed at the slight romance scene they had witnessed.
With a thumbs-up and wink at his girlfriend, Chazz turned around to face Sartorius.
"Let's go." He growled at his opponent.
Sartorius chuckled and nodded, starting up his duel disk.
"Let's do this!" Both boys shouted, as the duel was now underway.
Chazz knew he had to win for Blair's sake.
