Chapter 57, Unwanted love.

Chazz was sitting on a bench by himself, he was in deep thought about something or rather someone important to him.

Ever since Chazz had been rescued after being defeated by Banner he had had one person on his mind, Alexis Rhodes.

Chazz drifted off into a daydream about how he had first started to notice Alexis in this way.

Flashback.

Chazz woke up in a strange floating ball, "What, where on Earth am I" he thought, Chazz looked around and saw that the ball that he was in appeared to be floating in outer space, "On second thought, where off Earth am I".

Slowly Chazz began to remember what had happened to him, he remembered that he had been jumped by the last Shadow rider and that he had lost the duel, he also remembered that the Shadow rider had revealed himself to be Professor Banner right before he took his soul.

"So I guess that the only thing that I can do now is hope that the other's beat Banner" thought Chazz, however it was then that Chazz noticed that there was another two balls floating nearby, one of them had Jaden inside and the other had Alexis, they both appeared to be asleep or unconscious.

"Oh no, they must have lost as well, now the only one who's left is Robin" thought Chazz.

With nothing else to do Chazz tried to get comfortable in his ball and wait for something to happen, as Chazz was sitting there he couldn't help but stare at Alexis, he thought that she looked so cute while she was sleeping.

Chazz soon drifted off into a daydream about himself and Alexis as a couple.

End flashback.

"I know that look" said a voice breaking Chazz from his thoughts, Chazz looked up and saw Atticus standing over him, "Atticus what are you doing here" asked Chazz, "I was just hanging out with Zane, but then I saw you and I thought that maybe I'd give you a hand" said Atticus.

"What do you mean" asked a confused Chazz, "Don't play dumb, I know that lost look on your face, you're in love" stated Atticus, "What, no, I mean yes, I mean no, I mean" said a very nervus Chazz.

"Hey chill out, love makes the world go round, so tell me who's the special someone" asked Atticus, Chazz only became more nervus, he had no idea how Atticus would react to learning that he had a crush on his sister.

"Come on Chazz, I won't laugh, just tell me, I might be able to give you some tips" said Atticus, Chazz closed his eyes and built up what little courage he had, "Its Alexis" he whispered.

"You're in love with my sister, that's great" said Atticus surprising Chazz, "It is" said a confused Chazz, "Sure, I think that she could really use a boyfriend after everything that's happened" said Atticus.

"So, you're not angry" said Chazz, "Of course not, in fact I'm going to help you, we just need to think of a way to get her to notice you" said Atticus, "I might have an idea" said Chazz.

Sheppard entered his office, ever since the last Shadow rider had been defeated Sheppard had been in an extremely good mood, however his good mood soon disappeared when he saw what was on his desk.

The case that held the Spirit keys was sitting on Sheppard's desk and much to Sheppard's horror the case was empty.

"No, no, no, no" thought Sheppard as he picked up the case hoping that his eyes was just playing tricks on him, however Sheppard's eyes was fine, the keys was gone.

Sheppard quickly grabbed his phone and called Dr Crowler, "Vellian we have a serious problem, someone's stolen the Spirit keys" said Sheppard, "What, no that's impossible, what are we going to do" asked a panicking Crowler.

"Call the Key keepers, and tell them to meet you at the main building, I'll see if I can find any clues here" said Sheppard as he hung up the phone.

Sheppard began to search his office for any clues to who could have stolen the Spirit keys, he was so worried that he could barely think, "What are we going to do, what are we going to do" he kept saying over and over again.

Just then Sheppard noticed that there was a note on his desk that he had failed to notice in his panic, Sheppard picked up the note and read it.

Jaden, Syrus, Chumley, Bastion, Zane and Crowler was all gathered outside of the main building, they was all extremely worried about the disappearance of the Spirt keys.

Just then Robin and Alexis ran up and joined the group, "Hey look, I thought that you two was always early" joked Jaden, "Shut up Jaden, we have more important things to deal with" said Robin.

"He's right, we have to figure out who stole the keys" said Zane, "Maybe it was another Shadow rider" suggested Chumley, "But we already beat all of the Shadow riders" said Crowler, "Maybe there's another one" suggested Syrus.

"Maybe, but it doesn't make any sense to steal the Spirit keys, you have to win them in a duel to activate them" said Bastion.

Suddenly Sheppard ran out of the main building with a note in hand, "Everyone I think that I know who took the keys" he said, "You do, who" asked Jaden.

"I found this note in my office, it's from Chazz, he want's Alexis to meet him at the beach, then he said that he'll return the keys" explained Sheppard.

"What, why would Chazz take the keys, isn't he on our side" asked Jaden, "Who cares, let's just get those keys back before anything bad happens" said Robin.

The group soon arrived at the beach and found Chazz waiting for them with all seven Spirit keys around his neck, Chazz was wearing a smart suit as if he was going out to dinner and he was holding a bouquet of flowers.

"Mr Princeton what do you think that you're doing" demanded Crowler, Chazz didn't seem to be happy to see the group, "Hey, what are all of you doing here, my note asked Alexis to come alone" he said.

"Enough of this, hand over the Spirit keys now Chazz" demanded Robin clearly in no mood to be dealing with this foolishness, "Hey go easy on him, he's only following his heart" said a voice.

Everyone turned and saw Atticus carrying a guitar, "Atticus, what are you doing here" said Alexis, "I'm just helping a little love bird achieve his goals" said Atticus, "What" said the entire group together.

"It's true, Alexis I love you and I now that deep down you love me too" said Chazz, Alexis looked like she was about to be sick, "What's going on here" asked a confused Jaden, "I think that Chazz just hit puberty" said Zane.

"Chazz I don't love you, and I never will" said Alexis making every world as clear as possible, "And Atticus, how on earth could you possibly be helping him" she said as she turned to her brother.

"Oh come on Alexis, at least give him a chance, I think that you two could make a lovely couple" said Atticus, "I'm starting to think that they let you out of the hospital a little early" said Robin.

"Chazz Princeton I demand that you return the Spirit keys immediately or be expelled from Duel academy" demanded Sheppard, "Don't worry, I'll give the keys back, just as soon as me and Alexis have our date" said Chazz, "Chazz I am not going on a date with you" said Alexis who was starting to get angry.

"What should we do" asked Bastion, "I vote that we kick his ass and just take the keys" suggested Robin, "Hold on there, there's no reason to resort to violence" said Atticus who was starting to think that this was a bad idea.

"Do you have a better idea" asked Robin, "I do, how's about Alexis and Chazz duel for the keys" suggested Jaden, "Yeah, great idea, and when I win me and Alexis will finally be a couple" said Chazz already fantasising, "I think that I like Robin's idea more" said Zane.

"What's wrong sis, can't you deal with this one yourself" asked Atticus knowing that this would anger Alexis, "That's is, Chazz get out your card, it time to duel" said Alexis who's face had turned bright red from rage.

The duel started, "Like any good gentlemen I believe that I should make the first move in our relationship" said Chazz as he started his turn.

"I play a monster in defence mode, and I'll also set two cards face down, your turn my love" said Chazz, Alexis looked a little green in the face.

Alexis drew her card and started her turn, "Hold on my dear, I activate my trap card, Present card, this card causes you to discard every card in your hand but then you get to draw five new cards, aren't I sweet" said Chazz, "Shut up Chazz, your making me sick" said Alexis as she replaced her hand.

"I summon D.D. assailant in attack mode, now I'll use her to attack your monster" said Alexis.

D.D. assailant ATK 1700 DEF1600 LV 4 EARTH warrior.

D.D. assailant attacked and destroyed Chazz's monster which was revealed to be Ojama blue, "Thank you, since you destroyed Ojama blue I can add two Ojama cards to my hand, I knew that you cared" said Chazz as he added his cards to his hand.

Ojama blue ATK 0 DEF 1000 LV 2 LIGHT beast.

"I'll place a card face down and end my turn" said Alexis.

Chazz started his turn, "I activate the spell card One day of peace, this card allows us both to draw one card and neither of us can take any damage until the end of your turn, now I'll end my turn" said Chazz as he and Alexis drew one card.

"I summon D.D. warrior lady in attack mode, and I'll also place a card face down, I end my turn" said Alexis.

D.D. warrior lady ATK 1500 DEF 1600 LV 4 LIGHT warrior.

Chazz's turn started, "I activate Raigeki this will destroy both of your monsters" said Chazz, both D.D. assailant and D.D. warrior lady was destroyed.

"Now I'll activate Polymerization in order to fuse Ojama yellow with Ojama green, with these two monsters I can create Ojama knight" said Chazz, Ojama knight appeared on the field in defence mode.

Ojama knight ATK 0 DEF 2500 LV 5 LIGHT beast.

"And while Ojama knight is on the field you can't use two of you monster zones" explained Chazz, "Next I activate the trap card Ojama trio, this will summon three Ojama tokens to your side of the field, so now you can't use any of you monster zones" continued Chazz.

3x Ojama token ATK 0 DEF 1000 LV 2 LIGHT beast.

"What's Alexis going to do now, she can't even tribute those tokens" said Syrus, "Calm down, Alexis has been in tougher situations than this" said Robin.

Alexis drew her card and smile, "I activate the spell card Preparation of rites, this card allows me to add a level 7 or lower ritual monster from my deck to my hand, then it lets me add a ritual spell from my graveyard to my hand" she said as she added Cyber angle benten and Machine angel absolute ritual to her hand.

"Now I'll use Machine angel absolute ritual in order to tribute your annoying tokens so that I can summon Cyber angel benten" said Alexis.

Cyber angel benten ATK 1800 DEF 1500 LV 6 LIGHT fairy.

"What, I don't get it, I thought that she couldn't tribute those tokens" said Chumley, "She can't use them for a tribute summon, but this wasn't a tribute summon it was a ritual summon" explained Bastion

"But that's not all, next I'll activate the spell card Merciful machine angle, this card allows me to tribute Benten in order to draw two card, but then I have to send one card from my hand to the bottom of my deck, however since I tributed Benten I can also add a LIGHT fairy monster to my hand" explained Alexis.

Alexis added Cyber angel dakini to her hand then she drew two cards and then placed one card on the bottom of her deck.

"I activate my trap card Urgent ritual art, since I don't control a ritual monster this card lets me banish a ritual spell from my graveyard and then use its effect, and I choose Machine angel absolute ritual" said Alexis.

"Now I can shuffle D.D. assailant and D.D. warrior lady from my graveyard back into my deck in order to ritual summon Cyber angle dakini, and her effect with instantly destroy your Ojama knight" said Alexis as Ojama knight was destroyed.

Cyber angel dakini ATK 2700 DEF 2400 LV 8 LIGHT fairy.

"And just in case you've forgotten I still haven't used my normal summon for this turn, so I'll normal summon Blade skater in attack mode" said Alexis.

Blade skater ATK 1400 DEF 1500 LV 4 EARTH warrior.

"I think that you know what comes next, Dakini, Blade skater, attack him directly" ordered Alexis, both Cyber angel dakini and Blade skater attacked Chazz.

Chazz LP 4000 – 2700 = 1300.

Chazz LP 1300 – 1400 = 0.

Chazz fell to the ground both defeated and heartbroken, "No, it wasn't supposed to be like this, I was supposed to win and then we was going to be happy together" he sobbed.

Alexis wasn't moved by Chazz's tears in the slightest, she had clearly had enough of Chazz's romance during the duel, "Its over Chazz, now hand over the Spirit keys" she said.

"Hey Alexis go easy on him, he was only following his heart" said Atticus as he stepped between Alexis and Chazz, however Alexis didn't seem to be any happier with her brother than she was with Chazz, "And you should have known that I'd never go out with Chazz" she said as she grabbed Atticus by the ear.

Just then a helicopter flew over everyone's heads, seconds later the seven Spirit keys around Chazz's neck began to glow and then flew away from Chazz and towards the helicopter.

"What's going on" questioned Syrus, "Oh no, Chazz had all seven of the Spirit keys and Alexis defeated him in a duel" said Sheppard with fear in his voice, "So that means that all seven of the keys have just been activated" said Crowler sounding even more frightened than Sheppard, "Are you telling me that we beat all of those Shadow riders for nothing" said Robin sounding rather angry.

Suddenly Jaden began to run towards the helicopter, "Jaden what are you doing" asked Syrus, "The Sacred beasts haven't been freed yet, we might still be able to stop this" said Jaden without stopping.

"He's right, come on" said Zane as he ran after Jaden closely followed by the others.
