Young and Depressed
"Alexis… Alexis… Alexis wake up." Said the concerned voice of a male. Alexis slowly opened her eyes and found them in contact with a pair of chocolate brown ones. "J-Jaden? You're awake… YOU'RE AWAKE!" She exclaimed in delight and jumped up to embrace him, which sent the two toppling on top of each other.
"Umm, of course I'm fine Alexis. Why would you think that? And where are we? The last thing I remember is falling asleep in class once again!" Jaden input. She sighed and remembered he lost some of his memory. "Well this could be a long story…"
Jaden spoke before she continued with the explanation. "First off before you continue… This isn't a very comfortable position for me…" He shyly said. Alexis blushed in reply and thought, 'He probably doesn't remember that me and him are boyfriend and girlfriend…' She apologized and awkwardly climbed off the brown haired boy.
Then there was a brief moment of silence before Jaden interrupted, "But I'm glad that you care… Err that I was knocked out… Even if I don't remember." Jaden sheepishly rubbed the back of his head. Alexis smiled in reply and finally explained to him.
"Well Jaden this may sound completely crazy but it is all true. It all started when a storm hit Duel Academy. You had just rescued me from the guy who kidnapped me and played a fake shadow game… Anyways when the storm hit and we were in the middle of the lake and decided our best bet was to head back to the abandoned dorm for safety purposes.
When we arrived in the basement we discovered there was an ancient wall full of Egyptian Hieroglyphics. You and I went up and then all of a sudden a glowing light emerged from the wall and took our decks… Then burnt them! They were soon replaced with former Joey Wheeler and Mai Valentine decks. Another flash emerged and we blanked out. When we woke up we were in well… Yugi Moto's house."
Alexis was interrupted, "YUGI MOTO?" Jaden exclaimed. She nodded her head and continued.
"To skip to the important part they told us they hadn't died from disease and such… But instead were murdered by a corporate called Infested Cells. And to top it all off they hadn't been the first, all the way back to the first King of Games himself! Formally known as the pharaoh of Egypt! The only survived member was Seto Kabia. We decided to enter the last dueling contest he was holding so we did. When the first night was over we rented a hotel room and then went to bed. About in the middle of the night we were kidnapped and taken to a Infested Cells hideout. They questioned us until you told them because they threatened to murder and you knew it was serious. Soon after that Kaiba rescued us. But before that there was an explosion that sent you flying unconscious and when you woke up you didn't remember the whole thing…" She paused for a minute.
"Sounds really crazy, huh?" Jaden shook his head, "If it was how would we be here?" She smiled and leaned her head on Jaden's shoulder. He stiffened up but sat there nervously. Alexis suddenly remembered, "I'm sorry Jaden… I forgot about your mem-" She cut her self off.
"What did I forget?" He questioned. She frowned, "I just told you. I'm to tired to tell you again." They both chuckled. "Alright if you say so Lex." He replied.
"Jaden you don't know how happy I am to see you awake and your usual self again… You should have seen yourself before. You didn't even know who I was." She sounded relived, with a hint of sadness. "How could I forget someone like you?" Jaden said, trying to make her feel better.
"Yeah! How could you!" She pouted. "Well- Uh- I- H-had me-mory loss…" He stuttered. She smiled, "I'm just teasing you."
After that their eyes met once again. The two scooted closer towards each other, without much acknowledgement. Their hands intertwined as their faces drew closer until they- BOOM! The whole entire building shook! "Jaden!" Alexis screeched. "Are you okay?" He asked. "RUN! IT'S INFESTED CELLS THEY ARE LOOKING FOR US!" She yelled.
"Okay! Which way?" He panicked. "Umm… Crap I don't know… Just hide!" Jaden hid under the mind scanner while Alexis searched for a hiding spot. The door broke open and splinters flew everywhere. She felt a tug at her foot and fell beside Jaden under the machine. A tight fit but efficient.
"It seems they have deceived us once again… Well let's burn this place and burn the rats and chemicals that inhabit it as well!" Commanded the leader of Infested Cells. With a flicker of his silver lighter he threw it in and poured the gasoline. All you could hear was the sound of him laughing away in the distance.
Jaden and Alexis had begun to feel the heat. "Jaden we have to get out of here!" Coughed Alexis. The smoke was clearing in her lungs. "We… have to get out now…" Alexis let out her last breath, "Jaden…" After that she passed out.
Alexis' Dream-
The ancient wall placed before her.
The line shined through the pigment cracks.
Small but still the light was there.
Before she knew it darkness dropped in.
A veil placed over her, drenched in the shadows.
Jaden had appeared with his hand outstretched.
The blankets of darkness kept her from his reach.
Before she could wake up the darkness destroyed him
Out cold ran his pulse. Standing still beating his heart.
The only thing she could do now…
Was watching him decay.
Those words ran through her head as she dreamed of what exactly was told. Nothing would be there and nothing would be left.
Her brother was lost, and she had no clue.
Her love was gone, where would she go?
Everyone abandoned her and shunned her out cold.
The only place that now embraced her welcome and presence.
Was the cold silver blade digging into the virgin warm flesh
Her veins now open for the world to see.
The only thing that came from this effect.
Is the pain and emptiness of her self-doubt and shame.
In the end of her poetic nightmare was a terrifying image of his last tender kiss… Lips drenched in blood.
End of dream
Alexis' felt oxygen and life being restored to her. It was Jaden, performing CPR. Mouth to mouth she felt warm inside, even though it was just him trying his best. He noticed her come to life once more. "Alexis! I knew you'd pull through!" He said with a wide smile.
She looked up into his excited eyes and forced a laugh, "Of course. I am queen of the Obelisks after all." He nodded in reply. Alexis lifted her head from his lap and noticed they were by a stream in a forest. 'Oh yeah… The hideout was in the woods' She remembered.
"Well what do we do now my queen?" Jaden asked. "Get away from here. They will be back to look for things left behind." Alexis replied, with a stern look on her face. "Okay I agree." Jaden nodded.
Alexis tried to get up but fell back in attempt. She was to week from the first. "Need some help there?" Jaden asked full of concern. Alexis gave off a lopsided grin, "Yes please, Slifer King." He smirked and scooped her up in his arms.
After an hour or so of walking they neared a cave and it was the evening. "Alexis this cave looks like a good place to crash for the night. What do you say?" Alexis positioned herself up against the cave wall, "I agree." Jaden flashed a thumbs up. "I'll be back. I'm just going to look for some firewood and something to eat."
Alexis nodded, "Be careful Jaden." "Don't worry about me, you just stay safe." And with that he ran off. He kept his promise and within 20 minutes was back. "You miss me?" He said, as his entrance to the cave.
Alexis rolled her eyes. "Yeah." She said sarcastically, even though it was true she had. He laughed. "Well here is the wood. Oh no! I forgot what are we going to use to start it!" He remembered.
Alexis dug in her pocket and pulled out a familiar silver lighter, "I found this in the fire." She tossed him the lighter and he caught it swiftly. "Perfect! Thanks Lex." And with the fire was lit. He took a seat next to her and pulled some berries out of his coat, "Have some berries. Don't worry they aren't poison I checked."
"Well I'm glad you're thinking ahead Jay." She happily said eating the berries. The two sat there and ate in silence with the crackling of the fire ever so often. Jaden gave off a loud yawn.
"Sleepy head." Alexis teased. Then suddenly she yawned as well. "I am one as well too I guess." Jaden agreed, "Yep!" She playfully shoved him in reply.
"Goodnight Lex. Hopefully we will figure out our plans tomorrow." He then gave her a small hug and lay down. "Yes I hope so too…" Said Alexis, and laid beside him. About an hour after that she still couldn't fall asleep. "Jaden… Don't leave me please…" She said into the darkened cave.
He mumbled something in his sleep, "I won't Lex… I care so much about you… I'd…die… for you…" Alexis was relived he cared as much as she cared about him. And with that she drifted into a peaceful sleep… Until the nightmarish whispers entered her mind…
