Chapter 9, Official duels.
The next day everyone was ready for their first official duel, some students had woken up early to make last minuet adjustments to their decks, some simply tried to ready themselves mentally.
Alexis woke up fully energised, she had turned in early last night so she would be ready for today, Alexis got out of bed and headed for her bathroom to get ready, after finishing in the bathroom she got dressed and brushed her hair then left her room to meet up with Mindy and Jasmine for breakfast.
Robin was in his room getting dressed, he wasn't worried about his deck it had been ready since Saturday, he did wonder who he would be duelling today however there was no way to know, so he grabbed his school bag and headed to the dining room.
Bastion was worried "How can I plan my deck when I don't even know who my opponent is" he thought as he looked over his six decks, he had one for each attribute. "Well I'll just have to see who I'm up against and decide which deck to use then" he thought placing the decks in the special vest he made to hold all six.
Chazz was extremely confident "I can't believe Dr Crowler gave my these cards just to beat a Slifer" he thought looking at his new and improved deck, placing the cards in his pocket he left his room ready to destroy Jaden.
Jaden woke up to being shaken by Syrus "Come on Jaden wake up, you're going to be late" said Syrus, Jaden sat up "Hey what's with all a shaking" he asked, "Jaden we've got an official duel today, the results go on our end of year scores" said Syrus, Jaden looked shocked "Wait that's today, o man I forgot" said Jaden jumping out of bed trying to get ready on time.
Everyone made their way to class to find Dr Crowler and Professor Banner waiting for them, Dr Crowler stepped forward and spoke to the class "Good morning everyone, as you all should know you will all take part in your first school duel today, and you performance will affect your overall duelling rank".
Many students looked worried as Crowler continued "Now then you will all make your way to duelling arena three where your opponents have been pre chosen based on your duelling levels".
All the students walked to the duelling arena with Crowler and Banner behind them, when they reached the arena both Crowler and Banner pulled out lists with everyone's names, "Now as we call out your names you will start duelling, we will hold two duels at a time, one monitored by me and one by Professor Banner" said Crowler.
Crowler and Banner started to call out names of students then watched the duel monitoring them for anything worth note. It wasn't long before some familiar names came up "Mindy vs Jasmine" "Syrus vs Chumley" said Crowler and Banner respectively.
Chumley got nervous and forgot what his card could do resulting in him losing to Syrus, while Jasmine defeated Mindy, the next names of note was "Bastion vs Dimitri", Dimitri was a Ra yellow boy with spiky brown hair, he seemed to be impersonating Crowler in both deck and speech but lost to Bastion who use his EARTH deck.
"Robin vs Alexis" said Banner. Robin and Alexis took their places on the duelling field "Are you ready" asked Robin "I was about to ask you the same question" replied Alexis as their duel started, Banner flipped a coin and declared that Robin would go first.
