I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. Sad but true!
By the way I'm throwing in some characters who never appear in the show just for the sake of getting the plot moving before the end of 2006. Toodles!
And now...the conclusion!
Snow had been falling lightly on the ground outside Duelist Academy creating the illusion that someone had draped a white carpet over the landscape. The animals were quiet (what animal would be out in the cold anyway?) so everyone in Duelist Academy was sleeping serenely save the cooks who were preparing the big Christmas dinner.
"Hey, Tony! We need those birds on the double!" Said a husky man with a white chef hat and a white apron.
"Keep your shirt on Lou, those birds aren't going anywhere!" This came from a lanky man dressed in the same attire and who for some odd reason reminded everyone of Lurch from "The Adams Family".
Lou continued to clean the cutting board and waited patiently for Tony to get the turkeys in the kitchen so they could be stuffed and cooked in time for the great feast that night.
Meanwhile in Slifer Dorm...
Jaden was having a very bizarre dream where he was on a Turkey farm and he had just finished dumping the feed into the trough...when the turkeys suddenly swarmed him, all the while gobbling and as Jaden felt himself suffocating under the mass of birds he awoke suddenly in a cold sweat.
Panting heavily Jaden looked around the room and noticed that his friends Syrus and Chumley were still sleeping peacefully. Well, Syrus was sleeping peacefully anyway. Chumley was muttering in his sleep about grilled cheese sandwiches (go figure!).
Jaden let out an aggravated groan and burrowed back under the covers and was soon asleep.
Back in the kitchen...
GOBBLE! GOBBLE! GOBBLE!
Lou let out a deep sigh as the sound of a turkey came from the fridge where Tony had disappeared just seconds before.
"Tony, I know that you can do a turkey impression like no one else, but we need to stuff them now!"
Hearing no response Lou headed over to the fridge with an exasperated look on his face.
"Tony, this is getting old! Get out here now!"
GOBBLE! GOBBLE! GOBBLE!
Lou hesitated before the fridge. It sounded like a whole rafter of turkeys was on the other side of the door.
Shaking the image from his mind he opened the door and saw something which would have made him laugh if it wasn't completely against the established laws of thermodynamics (matter becomes dust or rust over time).
Tony was pinned on the ground like Gulliver in the land of Lilliput with Turkeys which should be dead holding up their wings in a fighting stance.
Lou quickly closed the door and tried to calm himself down in spite of what was happening. Unfortunately this didn't last very long.
Suddenly the turkeys broke down the door pinning Lou underneath it and puring out in a massive rush of juicy flesh. The other kitchen staff seeing what was happening ran from the building in a blind panic to escape...THE RIDE OF THE TURKEYS! (Play on words for the musical score Ride of the Valkyries)
And so the turkeys moved to establish control of the island...
Meanwhile back in Crowler's office...
"What is that infernal racket! Whoever is causing this noise will be forced to spend detention in my room for the next year!" yelled Crowler as he flung open the door.
The sight which met him was nothing like what he was expecting. Rows upon rows of turkeys were poised to attack Crowler.
"Not again." Crowler whimpered as the Turkeys dog-piled on him resulting in a turkey pyramid.
"First my hair and now my classroom! Someone will pay dearly for this!" and although you couldn't see it Crowler's face was so red that if he had a large glass pitcher he would be mistaken for the Kool Aid guy.
Meanwhile...
A mounting chorus of gobbles reached Jaden's ears and as before he huddled under the covers in an attempt to get some sleep. Then it came again. Like a turkey choral group.
Jaden couldn't stand it any longer and so he went to the door and flung it open. There as with Crowler stood legions of turkeys all poised for attack! Instead of being fearful though, Jaden quickly grabbed his knife and fork which he kept in case of a random food encounter and began to advance on the turkeys.
Naturally the turkeys turned and fled. It was then that Jaden remembered that he had forgotten the most important thing.
"Where's the cranberry sauce?" Jaden said whipping his head frantically back and forth.
"Aha!" Jaden exulted finding some in Chumley's mini-fridge he kept by his bed.
"Sorry Chumley, but unless you want turkey leftovers for the next month I need to get busy." And swiftly he departed.
Along the way Jaden picked up a flamethrower from metal shop to cook the turkeys. After all it wouldn't be cool if he got food poisoning on Christmas day!
So the siege commenced. (Theme from Chariots of Fire plays) Roasting! Gorging! (Trips back to the mini-fridge for more cranberry sauce) Daring heroics!
Of course given the amount of food to consume Jaden's metabolism went into overdrive and the academy was devoid of turkeys within the hour.
After this incident Jaden let out a belch which shook the foundations of Duel Academy and woke up everyone else.
"Aw man I'm stuffed!" said a surprisingly trim Jaden
"When's lunch?" and with that he returned to his dorm to catch some more Zs
A couple hours later there came an announcement over the intercom for everyone to report to the lobby of the main building. The students reluctantly followed wishing that today of all day there would be a lack of announcements until dinner.
The students demeanor changed however, when they saw the Christmas tree all aglow and the room flooded with presents.
The P.A. System squawked, "Students please form a line and receive your gifts in an orderly fashion."
Well you can guess how that went. Everyone surged forward hoping to get to their present first. Some just stayed back and smiled at how suddenly everyone was acting like a little child again.
One such person was Alexis Rhodes who had been scanning the crowd for Jaden and having seen neither head nor tail of him. She sighed and reasoned that he wouldn't show up until dinner. After all, it was Christmas. She smiled and continued to watch the ensuing chaos.
"Boo!"
"Ah!" Alexis said as she jumped two feet in the air.
When she came down she was furious. Ready to harm whoever had been so rude as to surprise her like that.
"You have some nerve...!" Alexis was cut short as Jaden pressed his lips against hers in an unbreakable lock.
Breaking the kiss Alexis looked at Jaden with an expression of mock indignation.
"You'll have to be punished for that." said Alexis still blushing from his bold advance.
"What did you have in mind?" Jaden said cocking an eyebrow and looking at her saucily.
"This!" and Alexis proceeded to tickle Jaden until he was gasping for mercy. Alexis then desisted and let Jaden catch his breath after the tickling barrage.
"You know there are more polite ways to say hello." Alexis said with an amused smile on her lips.
Jaden grinned widely. "Yes, but I would have been waiting all day for the opportunity to kiss you."
Alexis let out a small laugh. "All right, I'll let you go this time. But the consequences shall be more dire if you do something like that again."
"I look forward to it." Jaden said while he beheld the Queen of Obelisk Blue in all her glory.
"Oh yeah. I almost forgot!" Jaden said as he dug in his back pocket.
"Merry Christmas Alexis." and he handed to her what was obviously a card in wrapping paper.
She opened it and stared for what seemed like hours.
Then finally she asked, "Jaden, why this card?" and she held up Gyakutenno Megami.
"Because you Alexis in spite of your high rank have never looked down on lower dorms. Instead you have used your influence to protect even the lowest of Slifer."
And at this Jaden put his hand on his chest.
"I gave you this card because she is as beautiful inside as she is on the outside and so are you."
"Jaden..." Alexis had tears welling up in her eyes which threatened to gush forward and never end.
Jaden, knowing that words were inadequate simply rested her head on his shoulder and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"I will stand by your side until my end Alexis. When the dragons of this life imprison you I will not stop until you are safe once again. I love you Alexis. And until death comes to escort me beyond the mortal veil I will be there for you."
Alexis just sighed in contentment and whispered in his ear, "I love you Jaden."
And that was how they stood. Basking in the warmth and security of each other.
Eventually dinner came about. But since the turkeys had mysteriously vanished the school ordered a massive airlift of pizza. People ate quietly for a while, but then some one threw a slice of pizza across the room and it missed its intended target. The person who was hit retaliated and eventually all the students were covered in deep dish pizza from head to toe.
Jaden and Alexis had ducked out of the dining area but not before getting some of the crossfire over their clothes.
As the two walked away holding hands Jaden walked towards a tree and retrieved a rose of the deepest red.
Alexis breathed deep the delicious scent of the rose and turning to Jaden fell into his arms and sighed in contentment.
"You are my treasure Alexis. And as long as I draw breath I will honor, cherish and protect you.
Alexis did the only thing she felt was right. She kissed Jaden long and deep. This was the perfect Christmas. Not because of the decorations or the gifts, but because she had the love of the one whom she loved most.
And this is what Christmas is all about. That God sent his son as a sacrifice in order to bridge the gap between God and man created by sin. So now when we accept Jesus as commander of our lives that we be blessed with a love unlike no other.
Merry Christmas
