Authoress: Darka-Chan
Summary: A spell turns Chazz into a chibi for ten days, and if he hasn't found his love by then, things will turn ugly, though they already start out ugly when his brother interfere… CxJ, ZxA

Letting out a sigh, Alexis sits down on a wayward rock. "You know… You should be careful about him…" she repeats. "Don't forget; he is small now, and probably doesn't remember a thing. He's probably scared…"

"And what do you know." Jaden mumbles sulkily.

Smiling sadly, Alexis looks straight ahead of herself. "Because the same thing happened to my brother…"

"To your brother?" Jaden asks surprised, looking at Alexis confused.

Nodding at the other teen, Alexis let's a small smile grace her lips. "Yes, it was about four years ago…

FLASHBACK

Looking at the clock gracing the kitchen walls, the eleven-years old Alexis frowns slightly.

11.30

'it's already 11.30, Atticus should've been long up by now.' She thinks, slightly annoyed at her brother's lazy-ness when it comes to getting out of bed at Saturday morning.

Normally she wouldn't really mind; but this Saturday is special; this Saturday they were going to the mall for a duel-convention. Growling, Alexis makes her way up the stars towards her brothers' room.

Opening the door, ready to scold him, Alexis stops dead in her tracks upon seeing a small boy sitting on the bed of her big brother. Remembering the chibi from photos, Alexis' eyes widen. "Atticus?"

Looking up, the small boy looks at her with a small frown. "Who are you?"

END FLASHBACK

"Then what?" Jaden asks, curious about the story.

"Then nothing; after ten days Atticus grew to his normal size again, but without his memories." Alexis replies. "No one still knows what happened to him to make him like that, but his memory is still healing and just recently got together piece by piece."

"Wasn't that after he started dating Jasmine?" Jaden asks confused.

Nodding, Alexis let's out a sigh. "It was quite unfortunate that Atticus also kept the personality of the small him before he started to change back. It was almost as if the only thing that had returned to normal was his physical appearance…"

"That sucks." Jaden mumbles.

"Indeed it does. So now, you have to understand that Chazz isn't the same anymore. He has changed, Jaden. I believe the force that does this allows people a second chance, a chance in which they can change their life, though I don't know in what way yet." Throwing her head back with a sigh, Alexis looks at the sky sadly. "Back then I wasn't at duel academy yet, and after Atticus returned to his normal appearance I never gave it much thought anymore, to be honest. But now… with this happening to Chazz… I think I will go to the library and hope I'll find something on it, in the mean time, I want you to take care of Chazz as good as possible." Directing her stare towards Jaden, Alexis continues; "Because if you don't, I'll hurt you, and I'll hurt you good."

Gulping loudly, Jaden nods. "Of course." He laughs nervously. "Why wouldn't I? Ehehehe…"

Sending a glare towards her Slifer friend, Alexis rises from the rock. "I have to go now. If someone finds me here, I'll be in deep trouble, same goes for you."

"Where is Chazz now?" Jaden questions.

Grinning innocently, Alexis replies; "Oh, with Zane."

- - -

Blinking in shock, Zane looks at the chibi in front of him. "You… You just beat my… Cyber End Dragon… With ojama's…"

Nodding at the other person, Chazz tilts his head to the side, wondering if the other is mad at him.

"That's just weird." Zane sighs, shaking his head.

Grinning widely, Chazz looks up at him. "So you're not mad at me?" he asks cutely.

Shaking his head, Zane smiles softly. "Nah, I'm not mad. You did your best, and so did I. It was a fair duel, and not to mention a good one."

"Thanks." Chazz beams.

"Though I doubt my Cyber End Dragon will ever get over the fact that he got defeated by a few ojama's." he laughs quietly.

Sticking out his tongue at the other, in a moment of immaturity, Chazz let's out a yawn and smacks his lips softly.

"Well, you should probably sleep now, little one." Zane says lightly, as he tucks Chazz in like Alexis had done a little while ago before crawling in the bed next to him. "It's probably going to be a hard day tomorrow."

Murmuring his goodnight to the other, Chazz closes his eyes and mumbles; "Cyber End Dragon is a she by the way…"

"Huh?" Looking at the toddler in surprise, and about to question that; Zane finds the other asleep already.

Smiling slightly at the cute face, Zane decides not to press it any further to the sleeping chibi and closes his eyes as well.

- - -

The next morning approaches soundly like all the others as if nothing has happened the day before, and no teenage boy has been turned into a chibi, but yeah… What do mornings know?

Opening the door to Zane's room, Alexis smiles at the sight that meets her eyes.

Upon the bed lay Zane and Chazz. Chazz is resting his cute little head against Zane's left shoulder while the said teen's right arm is on top of the chibi.

'Just like lovers should lie…' Eyes growing in size at her own thoughts; Alexis almost curses herself. 'Of course! That's it! Why haven't I thought about that earlier! The answer is a lover!'

Almost glowing with delight, Alexis runs out of the room and runs towards the Slifer dorms. She has to tell Jaden.

- - -

Snoring loudly, Jaden turns around in his bed.

"JADEN!"

Falling on the floor in shock, Jaden blinks, looking up confused.

"Alexis?" he questions, wondering if he's not still asleep in his warm cosy bed, instead of looking at the Obelisk blue girl only half on his cosy bed and half on the cold and slightly rotting floor.

"Don't just lie there!" the blonde girl snaps. "Come on!"

"Jaden, what's going on?" Syrus asks sleepily, before noting Alexis. "Alexis!" he yells flustered, pulling the thin blanket over his bear-patterned baby-blue pyjamas.

"Would you all shut up!" comes the grumpy reply from Chumley.

Groaning at this all, Jaden gets up from the floor/bed and pulls some pants over his red boxers and his Slifer jacket over his white sleeping shirt before Alexis grabs his arm and drags him with her, ignoring the said boy's complaints about his shoes.

- - -

"WHAT?"

Smiling softly, Alexis nods slightly. "Yes, Jaden. That."

"But how are we going to do that? What if the person he loves is all the way in, I don't know, Italy?" Jaden yells.

"Then we'll just have to go there." Alexis says easily.

"But, but." Jaden splutters slightly. "How can you be so sure!"

"I can't!" Alexis grins. "But it's the most logical explanation. After all, Atticus only started to change back after he found love."

Shaking his head at the girls twisted logic, Jaden let's out a sigh. "I don't know, Alexis. What if we're wrong? What if that isn't it at all? Then we waste all that time, and for what? For nothing!"

"No, Jaden." Alexis says stern. "For Chazz, because at least then we tried something. I couldn't do anything for Atticus, and I won't make the same mistake with Chazz."

"Why are you so set on helping him anyway?" Jaden asks confused, tilting his head to the side a little.

"Because he's my friend!" Alexis cries out frustrated. "He's my friend, and I want to help him!"

"Why don't you save us the trouble of searching then, and be his love." Jaden mutters, letting out a yawn.

Twitching, Alexis growls. "Now listen here, Jaden. Chazz needs us right now. If things are the same as they were with Atticus; he only has nine days left now. Don't you want to help him?"

"Of course I do, Alexis! But this plan of yours is crazy! What do you expect us to do! Find him a girl of his own age, and let him be stuck with being called a pervert when he turns back, or try to find him someone his original age and hope that person really is a pervert which will stop when Chazz grows back? And then you also have the problem of where we could find someone that might be interested in the chibi toddler! Don't you see how much flaws your plan has?"

Blinking in surprise, Alexis looks at Jaden shocked. "Wow, Jaden. I never thought you could think that much."

Groaning, Jaden let's out a sigh. "But are we finished now? Because breakfast can be served any moment now, and I'm still shoe-less."

Nodding, Alexis begins to walk away. "I promised Chazz I'd pay him a visit before classes anyway."

- - -

"Finally." Zane laughs when Alexis walks through the door. "He hasn't shut up about you coming ever since we woke up."

Grinning up at Alexis, Chazz holds out his small arms, as if waiting to be picked up by the female student, which he is.

"Why, good morning, Chazz. I hope you had fun here with Zane?"

"Yup!" Chazz grins. "We even duelled!"

"And how did it go?" Alexis asks, sending a glare in Zane's direction who sulks slightly.

"I won!" Chazz laughs.

"Really?" Alexis grins, looking back at the chibi. "How?"

"He used his Ojama's on my Cyber End Dragon, that's how." Comes Zane's sulky reply.

Blinking slightly, Alexis chuckles in an attempt to hide her laughter. "Congratulations, Chazz. You have beaten the school's number one duellist."

"And he will beat many more." Comes the snide reply from the door.

Looking up, Chazz' eyes turn wide. "Slade." He whimpers quietly, holding onto Alexis tighter.

The only reply from his older brother is the sneer send his way.

Well, that was it again, and now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to smoke a cigarette with which I waited to finish this n.n".
