Chapter 29: When Layla Loved Me
"NNOO!! LAYLA!!" Zan's King of the Dark Ball had just attacked Layla directly and won him the duel. It was safe to say Jaden didn't like that ending very much. He had tears in his eyes and just kept screaming for Layla to answer him. He was just about to go to her when someone stopped him and grabbed him by the under arms and held him a few feet in the air. "LET ME GO!! LAYLA NEEDS ME!! I CAN'T LOSE ANYONE ELSE!! LET ME GO DAMMIT!!"
"I'm sorry Serge!" Hassleberry said, being the one who was holding him. All of his friends had heard the explosions of the duel and came running, fearing what would become of the duel. And they had come just in time. "Do you think the General would have wanted you to head to the battle field just as she lost the battle? No! She would have wanted you to be safe!"
"I DON'T CARE!! I NEED TO GO TO LAYLA!!" he started to fight Hassleberry's strong grip even more. He even started to kick him. But Hassleberry was to strong for him. "I REFUSE TO LOSE ANYONE ELSE! IF SHE GOES, THEN I GO TOO!!"
"HEY!! WHO THE HELL SAID YOU COULD DO THAT YOU DUMB ASS!!" Layla's voice rang out threw the clearing. The smoke finally cleared and there, standing in the exact same spot, was Layla. "QUIT TALKING LIKE I'M DEAD OR SOMETHING!! HOW WEAK DO YOU THINK I AM!??!"
"WHAT?!!?" Zan and Jaden shouted at once. Jaden stopped thrashing, but Hassleberry wouldn't let his grip falter, just in case. "HOW THE HELL ARE YOU STILL STANDING?!?! AND WITH LIFE POINTS?!?!"
Layla: 100
Zan: 2000
"I had 1 more face down you idiots! Our could you not count! The card activates when my life points hit zero and gives me 100 more points! It's called Extra Addition! And it also ends your turn on the dot! (thank you Ani for the idea! I just added the feature of the turn ending! Other wise the card would have been pointless seeing as how he still had other monsters on the field). And so I start my turn! And I play the card A Magicians Life Force! This gives me 300 life points for every Magician in my graveyard! And since you've made it quite obvious that you can't count, I have 5! So that gives me 1500 life points! And now I special summon my Petit Angel (A: 600 D: 900)! And I regular summon my Magician of Hope! (A: 1400 D: 800)" a girl wearing a long purple gown came onto the field. Her hair went all the way to her heels. "But they won't be staying for long cause I use my Black Magic Ritual! In order to use this card, I have to sacrifice monster that stars are 8 or higher! And since I have 8 exactly, I can use this card! Now! I sacrifice my Angel and Magician to summon my most powerful card! The Magician of Black Chaos! (A: 2800 D: 2600) Now! Attack his Lady of the Dark! And I play 1 card face down and end my turn!"
Layla: 1600
Zan: 800
"My draw!" Zan shouted drawing a card. "I play the card Feast Fit for a King! This gives my King a 500 point boost (A: 3000)! Now, attack her Magician!"
"Nu uh ah! I play my spell card! Book of Spells! And it gives my Magician a 500 point boost too! And you can't destroy it cause of my Magician of Hope's affect! It can stop another monsters affect from the graveyard (A: 3300)! So, Magician, destroy that stupid King!"
"GGGGGGRRRRRRRR!!!! I lay two cards face down, switch my Gentlemen to Defense mode and end my turn!"
Layla: 1600
Zan: 500
"Good! I play Monster Reborn and bring back my Dark Magician of Faith! (A: 2200 D: 1500)! Now, attack his Gentleman! And now, Magician of Black Chaos, attack him directly!"
"NOT SO FAST! I play my magic card Monster Destruction! If I pay half my life points, both of your monsters are destroyed!" both of the Magicians blew up into a billion pieces. "And when my Gentlemen is in the grave, it stops your turn automatically once per the duel! And I use that now! And now I activate my other card! Monster Reborn! Say hello to my King of the Dark Ball! (A: 2500 D: 2100). And you know how this ends girly! Attack her directly my King!"
Layla: 0
Zan: 500
"What happened to being all nice?!" Layla asked falling to one knee. "Whatever! I don't care anymore! Jay, sorry! But I couldn't beat him! Please. Don't be sad or upset! I hate to see you cry like that! You havta be strong for all of us!" a few tears spread from Layla's eyes as she looked sadly at Jaden. The shadows came and took her just like the others. Zan didn't say anything and just left like Layla did. Hassleberry let Jaden down seeing as how he didn't move or say anything. He just looked at the ground, his bangs covering his eyes.
"You alright Serge?" Hassleberry asked, still standing behind him just incase. Alexis moved so that she was standing in front of him. She put her hands on his shoulders and spoke in a kind and gentle voice.
"Come on Jay. Let's go back. You need to rest." Jaden didn't acknowledge that he heard either of them. He just looked at the ground and headed back to the dorms, not saying one word. "I hope he'll be okay. Nobody should have to go threw what he just went threw!" they all started to walk back to the dorms. But Jesse stayed behind for a few moments.
"Layla…" he said just above a whisper looking at the spot that Layla was just standing in. A lone tear fell from his eye. He turned around and started to walk back to the dorms in complete and utter silence. He didn't go up to his and Jadens room. No. He went into Layla's and Tara's (Jim had moved out once Tara came and was in the room next to Jaden, Chazz's old room) and crashed on the couch. He just stayed like that till he fell asleep.
OOOOOOO
(in Domino City at 10 that very night)
"The number you have dialed is no longer in this dimension if you would lik- 'click'" the spoiled rich boy was staring out of his window in his house this time. His wife came walking in, followed by another woman and Blondie.
"DAMN THEM!!!" Richie shouted as he threw the phone onto the couch. "I TOLD THEM IT WAS STUPID!! BUT NO!! THEY HAD TO BE STUBBORN! AND NOW LOOK! THEY'RE IN THE SHADOW REALM! THOSE DUMB ASSES!!"
"Don't call them dumb ass you ass!" the other woman said while smacking Richie upside the head. "They hate you and you know it! Why would they listen to you?! And this was bound to happen at some point! So quit being an idiot!" she smacked him again and walked over to Blondie. "I hate him."
"I do too." Blondie said threw a sigh. "So, what do we do know?"
"We go and get Jaden!" Richie said.
"But you promised him that-"
"THIS IS A SPECIAL TIME!! I can't keep that promise right now! We are going and that is final!"
"He's going to hate you even more now, you know."
"I do. And right now, I could care less."
OOOOOOOOO
(11 am at DA the next day)
Jaden hadn't said a word since Layla was taken. He hadn't cried, thrashed around or anything. He was just sitting on the cliff just outside of the Slifer dorm and just looked out to the sea. All of his friends just looked at him from behind with sad eyes. Jesse's were slightly red and puffy, but nobody commented on it.
"Do you think somebody should say something to him?" Syrus asked. "I mean, all of us miss them, but he knew them the longest."
"What can we say there mate?" Jim asked. "I don't think that there is anyone in the world that can fix his mood right now. The only one that I can think of is Layla. And look. She's gone and so is Jaden's happiness!"
"AAAAAWWWWWW!! THAT'S SO SAD!!" a voice said from behind everyone. They all turned around to see a girl a little shorter than Jaden. She wore simple blue jeans that were very baggy and they went to her heels. She wore black and jade sneakers. On her right wrist was a jade sweatband that was 3 inches long. She wore a T-shirt that was baggy and was black with a big heart on the chest that was colored grey in the middle and outlined in a dark green. There was a white skull in the middle of the heart. She was blond and had her hair in two pony tails that went all the way to the center of her back. Her skin was pale and her eyes were a bright blue. She had a black bandana around her neck. "Poor guy! Just can't get a break!"
"Um, and who might you be Sheila?"
"That ain't my name buddy! My name is Amber! And I came here for one reason and one reason only!"
"And that reason would be…?"
"To see my oof of a cuz of course!" she said grinning like a maniac.
"And who's your, uh, 'cuz' Amber?" Alexis asked.
"Why Mr. Moppy!" she said in an oddly chipper voice.
"You must be talking about the Serge then." Hassleberry said.
"I'll take it you mean Jaden? And yup! Layla's not the only one who can bring up his mood! Now, get out of my way before I hurt you!" she walked in between all of them. They moved out of her way as she passed by them. She walked over to Jaden and sat down next to him. He didn't move. Amber put her head on his shoulders and looked out to the sea. "Take a guess at why I'm here."
"My old man found out about Layla and the others and sent you to come and get me to take me home?" Jaden asked still looking out to the sea.
"Yup. He was a little pissed at the fact that the others were gone. And I came to help out with you guys any way that I could. Even if it's just to cheer you up a little bit. And you know that I can do that no matter what your mood! I couldn't take you away from this place if I wanted to! I guess I'm like Layla aren't I?"
"If you're trying to make me feel better, you're just making me scared for my life if you put it that way."
"Why thank you! Now just shut up and listen! It's not your fault, we WILL get them back, and one more thing."
"And that would be…?"
"That we all love you Jay!" she then started to sing.
"When somebody
loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour spent
together
Lives within my heart
Jaden couldn't help but let out a small smile. It was creepy how well his friends and family from back home knew him. And whenever they sung songs like this, it always made him feel at least a little better.
And when she was
sad
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy so was
I
When she loved me
Yup. That was Jaden and Layla alright. He cried, she made him feel better. She cried, he was just there for her. And they were always happy together.
Through
the summer and the fall
We had each other that was all
Just she
and I together
Like it was meant to be
And when she was
lonely
I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me
And it wasn't just those two. It was also Tara and Kyle. And he was grateful for all of them. But nobody could make him smile and laugh like Layla could…
So
the years went by
I stayed the same
But she began to drift
away
I was left alone
Still I waited for the day
When she'd
say
I will always love you
She went onto DA, and he was stuck at home. She went onto be a pro, and he was stuck at DA. He just couldn't win when it was being with her.
Lonely
and forgotten
Never thought she'd look my way
And she smiled at
me
And held me
Just like she used to do
Like she loved
me
When she loved me
That was exactly what Layla did when she say him a few days ago, well, after the beatings of course. She squeezed him so hard he couldn't breathe! And he loved it.
When somebody loved me
Everything was
beautiful
Every hour spent together
Lives within my heart
When she loved me...
Jaden let a lone tear fall from his eye. He looked down at his cousin. He smiled at her and hugged her. She hugged back and let a tear fall too.
