Okay, a lot of you readers put a lot of reviews and notifications up that you were following Emperor of Darkness. So, I'll answer a few:
Guest-In regards to the Harem, I will reveal that at the end of this chapter.
Dragon Duelist-Sorry, but the Harem for Jaden has been decided. In regards to DMG, she may have been Mana's Spirit, but not Mana herself. DMG is good with Spells and Mana...well, she still tends to bollocks them up.
DoubleDamn - While I do agree, Crowler won't be redeemable until Season 2.
Now, I'm grateful for you all reviewing and hope this chapter further excites you. Little bit of a warning, it gets physical on a female, so if this offends you in any way, shape, or form, please scroll past. It's nothing too major, but you never know with the Internet.
The docks of Domino were full of red, yellow, and blue. The new students of Duel academy were ready to be shipped out to the island. The Slifer Reds and Ra Yellows would be transported on helicopters to the middle of the ocean. The Obelisk blues would arrive on the most fanciest yacht.
At least, that was suppose to be what happened.
None of the helicopters were working right and many of them had to be grounded to do maintenance on them. This was done by the irate Yubel; having seen the Slifer Red uniform her beloved had been given, she went on a rampage on the machines forcing them to stay grounded.
The Obelisk's had mocked and jeered the Slifers and Ras as they boarded the yacht. As soon as they were on, Crowler gave the order to set sail, chortling at the stroke of luck he had. The Slifers and Ras would be left behind and the Blues would get ahead. Sadly for him, that further pissed off Yubel when she heard.
No sooner had the engines of the yacht start up, they died thanks to her powers. That made the captain perplexed. They repaired the ship's engines, only for the electrical system to have a tripped circuit. Once that was fixed, their rudders refused to turn. The Captain had to order everything powered down.
Naturally, Crowler was pissed when the Captain told him the news.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE CAN'T LEAVE?!" Crowler bellowed.
"Exactly what I mean, Sir. No sooner do we fix one issue, another issue crops up. Many of the men think that its you for leaving the other students without a way to get to the Academy." The Captain explained.
"THEN THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE FAILED!" Crowler snapped, finally making the Captain have enough.
It was further helped when Crowler's phone went off. The man angrily answered.
"WHAT IS IT?! I'M A BUSY MAN!"
"Now is that anyway to take your tone with me, Doctor Crowler?" A jovial voice said on the other end making Crowler freeze.
"C-chancellor Sheppard! I'm very sorry, but we're just having all these problems with the ship and-"
"Crowler, you weren't about to leave the new Slifer and Ra students behind were you?"
Crowler made several protests and denials. Sheppard on the other hand knew right away that the man was lying. After demanding to be put on Speakers, Sheppard told the Captain what was to be done with the students and how they were to ignore any order from the doctor. Hearing the orders, the Captain nodded.
"Number one!" The Captain barked, a young man of eighteen jumping up. "I want all students on board, no matter what the kind SIR here says."
Number one nodded and hurried out of the bridge much to the sputtering protest of the good Doctor. All the Captain did was turn back to his post.
~KOD~
Jaden watched with hidden glee at Yubel's handy work on the helicopters. She had shorted out the motors of the main rotor blades, not an easy thing to repair or replace. Another helicopter was flown in, Yubel did the same thing, this time shorting out the entire panel.
When the third suffered a similar fate, they gave up. That made several of the boarding blues to mock and jeer them. Well, Yubel made them suffer too by hitting the boat several times and stalling even the Blues departure. He had a quiet chuckle at the annoyed faces of the Blue who were not happy with them being delayed and made it vocally known.
A young man in a naval uniform then appeared at the front of the gang plank, shouting down to the guards.
"Let the Slifer Red Students and Ra Yellow Students on! Captain's orders!"
Hearing that, the guards stepped aside, the throng of students heading on. Jaden chuckled, it was good to have a duel spirit who could affect the world around her.
"Thanks, Yubel."
"Anytime, my king, anytime."
~KOD~
After an hour to fix the minor delays Yubel had done, the ship was well underway with all students on board much to the ire of the Blues. Many of the red and yellow jacketed students took the time to mingle and socialize with one another. Jaden did none of those things, opting to aimlessly wander around the ship. Socializing was not his strongest suit, preferring the loner route. Yubel teased him of it, but the young man ignored it.
Fate, though, was planning on something.
During his walk, he heard a low cry and paused, looking down a side hall. There were four boys crowded around a girl his age with fiery red hair. He silently walked up to the five, hearing a bit of the conversation and noticing that two of the four boys was holding her arms.
"...so what's it gonna be Fairbrooks? You gonna get cozy with Marcus here or does the Chazz have to further cause you pain?" A boy said with a smug grin, making Jaden's eyes glow dangerously.
"Get bent!" The girl snarled, Fairbank he had heard but knew it was a last name.
The answer made this 'Chazz' frown.
"Not what I wanted to hear, Fairbrooks."
"Excuse me, what is it you plan on doing?" Jaden cut in
Jaden's voice made the five start and turn to face the teen, Chazz and his crew gaining ugly glares.
"Butt out, Slifer Scum, this doesn't concern you." A boy with brown hair and a mousy face snapped.
Jaden's eyes glowed brightly making the teen go quiet and everyone to go on edge at the dangerous aura that sprang up.
"It does concern me when I see four boys are about to do something unpleasant to a nice young lady such as...Miss? I only know your last name."
The redhead stuttered, shocked at the power coming off the figure.
"J-jasmine, sir." Jasmine Fairbrooks replied.
Jaden nodded, looking back at the two other boys.
"As I was saying, it does concern me when I see a group of boys about to do something unpleasant to Miss Jasmine here. So are you going to back off?"
Chazz snarled, pulling himself to his full height...which still came up several inches short of Jaden's.
"I don't think you know how this works, but I'm Chazz Princeton, future King of Games. Now, get lost." Chazz snarled making Jaden yawn.
"Like I care for a title like that. I aim for a loftier one."
That made the three boys and one girl stunned; a duelist who didn't care for the title King of Games? What was going on here?! Chazz, though, smirked.
"Well, glad to see you recognize my power then. Scoot then."
Jaden and Yubel both shook their heads, knowing how arrogant this duelist was. The brown mousy kid then asked the question Jaden was waiting for.
"What's loftier then King? Everyone knows that Kings are the best!" The brown mouse said making Jaden chuckle.
"Marcus, I presume?" Jaden asked through his laughter.
At the nod, the dark king continued.
"Even Kings bow to Emperors." Jaden said smoothly, making Jasmine's jaw drop and the two boys to let her go.
Chazz on the other hand, didn't like what he was hearing and snarled.
"Emperors?! What kind of shit are you smoking?! There's been no Emperor of Games!" Chazz snapped making Jaden chuckle.
"Then perhaps I will be the first. Now, I simply must find a responsible adult to report you four delinquents."
Jaden made to leave, but the two boys that held Jasmine blocked him with Chazz and Marcus cutting off his escape. Unseen to them, Jasmine snuck away, heading for a blonde haired girl. Jaden looked at the four and sighed.
"Really? Blocking me in?" Jaden asked, bored.
"We're not letting you go until you apologize to Chazz!" Marcus squeaked out, Jaden really wondering if he had mice in his family line.
The teen hm'd and hawed a few times before shaking his head.
"No. I won't."
That got the four riled up even more, but Chazz calmed down the quickest. He smirked as a thought came to his head.
"Then how about we make you in a duel?" Chazz proposed, remembering hearing how this new kid was suppose to be even better then him.
Jaden's interest was peaked, though he didn't show it. He looked at the four and shook his head.
"Four on one is not very fair." Jaden pointed out making Chazz nod.
"Yeah, that's why you're going to duel Marcus here." The Princeton explained making Marcus look eager. "He wins, you apologize and not report us."
"I win, you report yourselves to your headmaster and the head of the school. Failure to do so will have some very bad repercussions for your side." Jaden said coldly, making the four freeze.
Unknown to the five, a large gathering had come, surrounding them. Jasmine was next to the blonde she had gone to and a black haired girl around her age.
"You're saying that the hooded guy who beat Crowler came to your rescue, Jazz?" The blackette asked, putting a hand to her cheek.
"Yeah, Mindy. Though...something about him is...weirdly familiar. What do you think Alexis?" Jasmine asked the blonde.
"I think the duel is about to get underway." Alexis replied, watching.
Jasmine turned her attention back and saw that what the Queen had said was true; Marcus and the hooded teen had activated their disks.
Marcus: 8000/Jaden: 8000
The two drew their hand, Jaden looking it over and seeing what he had. Marcus began the first move.
"I'll draw to start this off!" Marcus shouted, drawing.
He added the card to his hand and then chose another.
"I summon Marauding Captain in attack mode!"
A man holding a sword and armor appeared, landing on one foot. A second appeared next to him. Jaden was not impressed.
"Using a captain to summon another...it seems I chose the right deck for this after all." Jaden said making many confused.
"You're not using the deck against Crowler?" Marcus asked shocked.
All Jaden did was scoff.
"Of course not. He was a novice, true, but a skilled one once he actually puts in some work. You on the other hand are and always will be nothing more but a Novice. That's why I chose this unique deck. Now, do you end?"
Marcus did not, playing a spell card called The A. Forces, raising his warriors attacks to fourteen hundred. Another couple of facedowns and Marcus ended his turn turning it over to the hooded teen.
Jaden drew his card wordlessly and added it to his hand. He chose another and played it.
"I activate the spell card, Dark Snake Syndrome." Jaden said, the spell showing a man being choked to death by a shadow snake.
"Now during each of my standby phases, we are dealt two hundred points of damage that accumulates; two hundred the first time, then four hundred and so on." He explained, choosing another card. "I'll follow that up with Dark Room of Nightmares which further inflicts an addition three hundred points to you every time you take effect damage."
A dark room surrounded the two, Jaden choosing his final three cards leaving him with a single card in his hand.
"I'll play these cards facedown and end my turn."
The three cards appeared next to his two spells, the boy looking bored. Alexis was watching intently.
"He has no monsters in that deck..." She stated making Jasmine and Mindy look at her.
Marcus took his turn, drowning out their questions and played Command Knight, raising its points to sixteen then to twenty-two hundred due to The A. Forces. Both Captains then gained another two hundred from the new arrival taking their power up to sixteen hundred only for it grow again due to Command Knight's effect.
Marcus smirked.
"You're wide open for an attack! Go!"
"Reveal face-down spell card! Turn jump!" Jaden shouted, a spell card revealing itself.
The entire area began to warp and distort much to the crowd's shock. Jaden explained.
"Turn jump forces us both to skip six turns, three turns each. Right now, we've gone from the Battle phase to the main phase again and now the end phase. Thankfully for you, neither of us draw cards during this time warp. But since we just entered the Standby phase for myself, my DSS activates."
Two shadow serpents shot out, one sinking its fangs into Jaden's shoulder and the other into Marcus's leg.
Marcus: 7800/Jaden: 7800
"Let's not forget my other spell, my Dark Room. Another three hundred is taken."
Marcus: 7500/Jaden: 7800
This continued for another five turns, the damage growing from the Dark Snake card each turn of Jaden's.
Marcus: 7100 (DSS 400) → 6800 (DRNM 300) → 6000 (DSS 800) → 5700 (DRNM 300) → 4100 (DSS 1600) → 3800 (DRNM 300)
Jaden: 7800 → 7400 (DSS 400) → 6600 (DSS 800) → 5000 (DSS 1600)
Everyone stared in shock at what had just happened. The Hooded teen had taken out more then half of Marcus's life points in a single move! True, he too had taken damage, but he still had more then half of his life points! Marcus didn't look too good, panting from the attacks. The distortion fell away, making him smirk.
"Guess...your little time warp ended. Good, we'll continue with my attack! Go my captains!"
Jaden just shook his head, another card revealing itself.
"You obviously forgot my other traps; I use my Magic Cylinder to redirect the attack back to you."
Two odd cannons appeared next to Jaden, the attacking Captain heading into one and shooting out the other, smashing into Marcus.
Marcus: 1800/Jaden: 5000
"I would think very carefully about your next course of action, boy. You're on your last legs." Jaden stated.
Marcus gritted his teeth; here he was, being made a mockery by a Slifer Red. HIM an OBELISK! He glared at Jaden, then turned his glare at the facedown cards. Looking at his hand, he smirked at seeing a vortex.
"I use the Quick play spell, Mystical Space typhoon! Say good-bye to one of your two facedowns!"
The vortex began to swirl toward the facedown on the right, but Jaden just smirked.
"A good move, but a futile one. Go, counter trap. Judgment of Anubis. This counter trap allows me to discard one card in my hand, negate that spell, and destroy it." Jaden said, discarding his single card.
The vortex died out from a ruby red laser and it was pulled into the coffin that had come out of the card. Marcus gritted his teeth.
"Then I guess I'll-"
Whatever was said was lost from his other captain exploding and the shrapnel began hitting him.
Marcus: 0/Jaden: 5000
"Game over, weakling. For those confused, let me explain. Judgment of Anubis not only lets me stop a Destruction Spell like Mystical, but also destroys a monster and inflict damage equal to that monster's current attack points. Captain, thanks to both Command Knight and The A. Forces, had two thousand points." Jaden stated, making many start to mutter.
Jasmine's jaw dropped.
"No way...he beat Marcus like it was nothing. Who is this guy?"
Marcus, on the other hand, didn't take the loss well at all. He had seen the look of pure disgust on Chazz's face. With a roar of anger, he charged at Jaden, said teen turning around to leave. Marcus's hand touched the back of the boy's hood and yanked it back, laughing madly.
"Now everyone shall see what a freak you are!" Marcus shouted, half-craze.
The reaction he got was not screams of fright, terror, or disgust. Instead, cries of shock, delight, and adulation met his ears. The blue looked up and saw the real face of Jaden Yuki.
A face that had many girls swooning, from the chiseled chin, the regal jawline, hair that shone in the sun, brown with a red shock on top. But it was the golden eyes that shimmered with power and anger. He looked down at Marcus, his disgust apparent.
"Like I said...weak. Attacking a man while his back is turned." Jaden said coolly.
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!" Came a very unwelcome voice.
The groups all looked to see Doctor Crowler looking around at the assembled. As one the blues spun a tale about how Marcus had been accosted by the slifer red and how the red had cheated in a duel the two had. Many of the others tried to butt in and tell what really happened, but Crowler ignored them. He looked smugly at Jaden who looked indifferent to it all.
"Well, well! Seems we got quite a troublemaker on our hands." Crowler sneered, marching up to Jaden and trying to tower over the boy.
This was difficult to do as the boy simply ignored him.
"Got anything to say, slacker?"
Jaden's reply was short and to the point.
"God tortures liars with inexplicable pain."
Crowler was at a lost about the quote. He was about to retort but bloodcurdling screams began to echo around the two. Many watched in both awe and absolute terror as the boys of Blue who spun the tale and Marcus fell to the ground, writhing in pain. Crowler paled; being extremely paranoid about religion, he thought back to what the boy had said.
"God, please! They...they're children!" Crowler begged, his personality turning a complete one-eighty.
The blues all felt the pain leave, but it left them shaking in terror. Crowler soon got the truth from one.
"Sir, I can explain what REALLY happened." Jasmine Fairbanks said.
She told Crowler everything; from Chazz and his little buddies trying to strong arm her into something she didn't want. How Jaden had come to her defence and the duel that followed with Marcus losing. Needless to say, Crowler was stumped; on one hand, it was a Blue telling him and thus it was the truth. On the other, Marcus was the son of one Duel Academy's backers. If something happened to the boy, they'd lost a good portion of their funding.
The Doctor sighed, but soon came up with an idea.
"Mister Marsh, please turn in your deck when you arrive at the Island. Mister Yuki, you do the same. ALL the decks."
He smirked at the protests of the others, but frowned when Jaden simply looked at him with a cocked eyebrow. Those golden eyes...Crowler shuddered. He suddenly felt very small.
"And for what am I being punished for? Coming to the defense of a not so helpless girl? If that is the case, then next time I won't bother even if I see a male student sexually assaulting another." Jaden remarked.
Seeing the blank looks of the students and Crowler, he groaned.
"God above you people are idiots...we're going to an ISLAND in INTERNATIONAL WATERS. An ISLAND with Teenagers and all kinds of hormones. You honestly think they have the protection force required to deal with such an issue of rape?"
Crowler blanched and paled at the same time; this kid wasn't messing around. True, the doctor never really thought of it before, but this time was different. They were having many children who had been handed stuff all their life. He was no fool, but this?
He looked around and saw several daughters of financial backers all looking gobsmacked like the situation had not even entered their minds. He had to do Damage control!
"Now, now, Duel academy is the most secure place in the world!" Crowler soothed the jumpy teens.
But Jaden wasn't done.
"Oh really? I heard rumors that a entire dorm of students vanished without a trace two years back." Jaden interrupted making Crowler spin on his heel.
"W-well, you know how rumors are! Just means to try and besmirch the school's good name." Crowler said with a nervous smile. "Okay, everyone forget about the punishment! Please head to your assigned rooms! I think we all had enough excitement for today!"
The crowds broke up, some of them a bit unnerved by what had been said about the missing students. Marcus managed to sneak away in all the commotion. Jaden looked to Yubel who nodded. She would deal with the doctor and the boy in time, but for now, she was to spy on the both of them.
Jaden simply shrugged and left the area. The group broke up, leaving only the three girls, one of them looking intently at where Jaden disappeared to.
"He's good." Mindy said.
"With dueling or with manipulating the situation?" Jasmine asked, looking at her.
"Both. He took down Marcus with no monsters in that deck AND got Crowler scared. You think that there might be some truth to those rumors, Alexis?" The black haired girl asked the blonde.
"If there are, Mindy, how did this guy know about them?" Alexis said, eyes showing anger.
"Whoa, easy Alexis!" Mindy said, holding up her hands. "You heard him...he heard rumors but nothing concrete. Hell, he might actually have been hired by one of the families of the missing students you know?"
Alexis's look of rage softened, but it did not dim. She glowered at the back of the boy.
"I will find out all about you...Jaden Yuki." Alexis promised.
For now, she would content herself with hanging out with her friends.
Okay, a Blue gets his ass handed to him and it isn't Chazz! All joking aside, yes, that is why I am making this M rated. I know how uncomfortable people are with it, but if you really look at it, in the Anime, you only saw at best, seven guards...SEVEN in a Ten thousand Square foot mile island. Duel academy would be nothing but a pipe dream in the Real world if this was the case.
And yes, I am including the DAS team that was revealed after the Forbidden Dorm fiasco. Hundred of Teens on an island with only Seven people to guard it. Makes you wonder.
As for the Harem, it is:
Jasmine Fairbrooks (Last name was never given so I made one up) Age-wise: 17
Mindy Tang (No relation to Trixie Tang.) Age-Wise: 17
Alexis Rhodes Age-Wise: 17
Yubel Age-Wise: ?
Fonda Fontaine. Age-Wise: 21
For Jasmine, Mindy and Fonda, they were never really given a time to shine..well, Fonda did in Season three, but after that, nothing. Ages are put in to show the other three, with exception to Fonda and Yubel, are currently underage.
Hope you like this little chapter and I'll see you all next time. Please leave a review!
