bopdog111: They had a tough time against Dimitri even with Dark Magician, and Dark Magician Girl being Personas themselves.
Ulrich362: True, though it makes sense considering what those two monsters are.
bopdog111: Well now what are they up too?
Ulrich362: A new student is arriving at Duel Academy.
bopdog111: Well let's see what's going on.
Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! GX or Persona but we own the OCs!
Ulrich362: Enjoy the chapter.
"If we could please get everyone's attention?" Banner asked in the Lunch Hall of the Slifer Dorm.
"Eyes forward, students." Yuzu added to them.
"Chumley, stop chewing with your mouth open!" the two scolded in sync.
Once the attention was brought to them Banner smiled while holding Pharaoh, "Good. Now, please join us in welcoming a new transfer student."
"Blair Flannagan." Yuzu smiled as a small kid about Syrus' size was walking in wearing the Slifer Blazar, and a hat that covers the top of his head.
"I had to stop chewing for a transfer student?" Chumley groaned but doesn't want to get in trouble.
Jaden smiled. "Nice to meet you Blair."
"That's right, it's beary nice to meet you Blair-chan." Teddie grinned.
Blair looked before blushing hiding behind Banner.
"Try to understand." Banner told them, "This isn't Blair's home. At least not for long."
"Huh, what do you mean?" Yu inquired curiously.
"He scored nearly perfect on all his entrance exams." Yuzu answered, "It's the Academy's Policy that all transfer students start out at Slifer."
"But with his high marks, he'll be moved up to Ra Yellow within a few days." Banner added.
"Not to offend professor, but shouldn't you be more respectful to her?" Yu asked.
"Her?" Banner, Yuzu, Jaden, and Chumley asked in sync.
Yu noticed Blair looks like she's starting to panic, and made cutting motions with her hands to get him to stop. Yu stared at Blair for a few seconds before frowning. "My mistake, sorry."
Blair let out a sigh of relief with a smile.
"Okay. Anyway. Jaden, Blair will be staying with you since Syrus moved to Rise's dorm." Banner told Jaden.
"Go on Blair. Why don't you say hi?" Yuzu smiled assuringly to Blair who nodded slowly, and walked out.
Blair smiled, and said in a boyish voice, "Hello."
Yu and Teddie exchanged a brief glance hearing that.
"Hey Blair, feel free to make yourself at home." Jaden smiled.
Later...
"Settle down, people. Attention, please? Chumley, stop chewing with your mouth open!"
Everyone was gathered at the Auditorium for a assembly meeting they have with Sheppard.
"Good. Now, the big match-up against our rival school, North Academy, is coming up. Last year, Zane, our student rep, whupped 'em good! And this year, I want to win the school duel again!" Sheppard smiled as a spotlight shined on Zane.
Zane only smirked.
Blair stared amazed at Zane.
"Now, we still haven't decided on who's going to represent us this year, so if you keep hitting those books and dueling hard, you may be one who gets the honor!" Sheppard smiled.
The students all started murmuring excitedly at that while Yu walked over to Blair.
"Do you have a few minutes to talk?" Yu asked.
Blair looked, and seemly nervously nod. Yu nodded before they walked out of the room and into an empty classroom. "Why are you pretending to be a boy?"
Blair looked down as she asked, "How did you know?"
"My friend Naoto did the same thing, she wanted to be respected in the police force so she dressed as a boy and pretended to be one. My friends would probably have noticed too." Yu answered.
"...Trying to get close." Blair looked down.
Yu looked at her before frowning. "Well alright, I'm guessing you don't want to tell me who so I won't ask."
Blair nodded with a smile.
"We should head back." Yu suggested.
Blair nodded at that as they walked back.
Later at the Slifer Red Dorm...
Yu, and Teddie were talking to each other before Chumley walked in.
"Oh, hi Chumley." Teddie smiled.
"Hey guys. Has Jaden, and Blair came back?" Chumley asked them.
"Come back, where did they go?" Yu asked.
"Don't know. Jaden said he saw Blair running to the direction of the Obelisk Blue Dorm." Chumley answered.
'The Obelisk Blue... wait a second that might explain it.' Yu thought before running out of the room towards the Obelisk Blue Dorm.
"Huh? H-Hey Yu!" Chumley cried as Teddie followed.
They arrived to see Jaden looked really relieved.
"Jaden, where's Blair?" Yu asked.
"I-Uh... I don't know. But there's something really freaky about Blair!" Jaden told him, "When followed him to Zane's room she was hugging his cards close to his face, and then when I try to get us out to avoid being caught his hat fell out where he's a girl!"
"Right here." they turned to see Blair was wearing her hat, and has long purple hair, "Let's head somewhere to we can talk privately."
Yu and Jaden nodded before following her. Teddie also followed.
Later...
It was now night where the three are at where it is a dirt side below the Slifer Dorm, "Listen you three. The fact that I'm a girl needs to stay a secret!"
"Huh, but why?" Teddie asked.
"Listen I'm embarrassed enough as it is already since Yu saw through me so can we drop it, and forget you figured out I'm a girl?" Blair asked them.
"You can't hide it forever Blair." Yu pointed out.
"Yes, I can." Blair argued.
"Fine if you want tell us then why not we throw down?" Jaden said handing her a Duel Disk.
"A duel? How will that solve anything?" Blair asked them.
Jaden grinned, "In a duel the truth always comes out. Unless you, or Teddie would like to take this one Yu?"
"I'll duel her." Yu mentioned.
"Kay." Jaden handed him the Duel Disk, Bastion modified for him to use.
Unaware to them is Chumley, Bastion, Kanji, and Yosuke were watching above.
"Jaden is all about Duels is he?" Yosuke asked.
"Looks like it." Bastion nodded.
"And there's more."
They looked to see the girls with Zane, Alexis, Syrus, and Jasmine arriving.
"Blair is actually a girl." Zane told them, "She was snooping in my room earlier, and left her Hair Pin."
"Though it looks like unlike me she was hiding her identity in order to get closer to Zane." Naoto added thoughtfully.
"Though it looks like unlike me she was hiding her identity in order to get closer to Zane." Naoto added thoughtfully.
They turned to them.
"TIME TO DUEL!"

Yu: 4000
Blair: 4000
Let the duel begin!

"All right get ready..." Blair drew as she grinned, "To fall in love! I summon Maiden in Love!"
At that a small girl looking adorable while wearing a huge yellow dress appeared.

"Wow, she looks kind of cute." Chumley admitted.
"I'll place 2 cards down, and it's your move Yu." Blair ended.
Yu 1st Turn:
"Alright, it It's love you want I'll summon Lovers Persona Undine in attack mode." Yu called as a girl seemingly made of water appeared on his field.
Lovers Persona Undine

ATK: 1800
DEF: 1500
If your opponent controls a Set Spell/Trap Card you can Normal Summon this card without tributing.
"Huh?" Blair asked amazed, "Does that have the same conditions as Cyber Dragon?"
"Not exactly, it isn't a special summon and relies on facedown spell and trap cards." Yu answered. "Now I'll set three cards and attack Maiden in Love, Bufula!"
Undine fired ice shards as Maiden in Love cried out.
(Blair: 2600)
"You have broken her heart but she has a special ability!" Blair called, "As long as she's in attack mode her ability prevents her from being destroyed! But that's not all!"
At that the scene changes to where Undine is helping Maiden in Love getting up.
"What?" Yu questioned.
"Are you alright?" Undine asked her.
"Maybe... Maybe not." Maiden in Love answered with tears in her eyes.
Undine said worried, "Oh, I'm so sorry if your hurt. That was foolish of me."
"Your sweet." Maiden in Love had a tearful smile before winking which Undine now has a pink heart on her chest. (Maiden Counter: 1)
Yu noticed the counter before frowning. "I end my move, but there's more going on isn't there?"
"Yeah! You see when Maiden in Love fights she places a Maiden Counter on your monster." Blair grinned, "It doesn't do anything right now but you'll see soon."
Yu: 4000
Blair: 2600
Blair 2nd Turn:
Blair drew, and said, "I'll activate the equip spell, Cupid's Kiss!"
Cupid's Kiss
Equip Spell Card
If the equipped monster battles an opponent's monster with a "Maiden Counter" and you take Battle Damage from that battle, take control of that monster at the end of the Damage Step.
A small cupid angel appeared before kissing Maiden in Love's cheek which made her blush.
"And now Maiden in Love go over to Undine!" Blair grinned as Maiden in Love run over.
"Miss Undine!" Maiden in Love called with a smile to the Lovers Persona.
"Trap card open, Angelic Grace!" Yu called.
Angelic Grace
Continuous Trap Card

"This card negates one attack or effect targeting one of my Personas each turn."
"Sorry but I got this." Blair grinned playing a trap.
Trap Jammer
Counter Trap Card
When your opponent activates a Trap Card during the Battle Phase: Negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it.
"When you play a trap during battle this negates your card, and destroys it." Blair told him.
Yu frowned as his trap shattered. Maiden in Love continued as Undine step-sided which made her trip as Blair grunted. (Blair: 1200)
Maiden in Love teared up, "How could you!? Your so mean!"
"I'm... I'm so sorry." Undine said knelling over her, "I'll do anything to make you better."
"Anything?" Maiden in Love asked her.
Undine nodded, "Say the word if it'll make you better."
"Then... Attack the mean man there!" Maiden in Love called pointing at Yu.
"At once!" Without hesitation Undine fired a Bufula at Yu.
(Yu: 2200)
"Huh? Why did Yu's Persona attack him?" Jaden asked shocked.
"It's simple!" Blair giggled, "Thanks to Cupid's Kiss when Maiden in Love battles a monster that has a Maiden Counter it joins my side!"
"That's a powerful ability." Yu admitted. "Fitting for someone who's in love."
"Wish I have a monster like that." Rise admitted.
"You have great monsters." Syrus reassured her.
"Anything else Blair?" Yu inquired.
"First is Stray Lambs." Blair told him.
Stray Lambs
Normal Spell Card
Special Summon 2 "Lamb Tokens" (Beast/EARTH/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0) in Defense Position. You cannot Summon other monsters the turn you activate this card (but you can Set).
"In exchange for not summoning this turn, I can summon two Lamb Tokens." Blair said as two small sheep appeared.

"And then I'll activate Token Thanksgiving." Blair added.

"By destroying all the Tokens on the field, I gain 800 points!" Blair grinned as the two Lamb Tokens shattered as she glowed. (Blair: 2800)
Yu nodded. "Alright."
"Wow, that's really a strong combo." Chie admitted.
"Finally a face-down, and that ends it there." Blair grinned.
Yu 2nd Turn:
Yu drew his card and smiled. "I set one card facedown and that's it."
"Not a monster?" Jaden asked confused.
"If sensei didn't play one, he must not need to." Teddie smiled.
Yu: 2200
Blair: 2800
Blair 3rd Turn:
'He's up too something...' Blair thought, 'But what?'
"Okay my draw!" Blair drew, and sees it was Happy Marriage, "Alright! I'll play Happy Marriage! This equip spell allows Maiden in Love to gain attack equal to Undine as long as Undine agrees to be her Maid of Honor!"
Happy Marriage
Equip Spell Card
Equip only to "Maiden in Love". Select 1 opponent's monster you control. The equipped monster gains ATK equal to that monster's ATK.
At that Maiden in Love, and Undine are both garbed in dresses with Maiden in Love's looking more fancy as Undine gave her a thumbs-up. (ATK: 400 + 1800 = 2200)
"2200 points." Yu noted. "Enough to end the duel."
"And now Maiden in Love give Yu a send off!" Blair grinned as Maiden in Love started running to Yu.
"Come here!" Maiden in Love called to Yu.
"Sorry, but I'll be using the Tetrakarn trap. When a monster attacks this trap destroys it." Yu revealed.
Tetrakarn
Normal Trap Card
When an opposing monster declares an attack, destroy the attacking monster.
Blair looked shocked as Maiden in Love cried out shattering which snapped Undine out of it.
"W-What just happened?" Undine asked placing a hand on her fore-head.
Blair thought, 'Okay no need to panic... my face-down, Monster Reincarnation will allow me to bring Maiden in Love back.'
"Okay Undine! Get him for your bride!" Blair called as Undine in utter confusion fired a Bufula at Yu.
Yu braced himself as the attack hit.
(Yu: 0400)
"You may have ruined the wedding but that doesn't mean I didn't lose the advantage!" Blair said ending her turn.
Yu 3rd Turn:
"Actually Blair, you did." Yu told her. "You're in love with Zane aren't you?"
Blair blushed at that, "...It's that obvious isn't it?"
Yu just nodded. "Yeah, so what do you say we put an end to this duel?"
"With me winning, and you promising to keep quiet!" Blair yelled.
Yu gently shook his head. "That's not what I meant Blair."
Blair looked confused.
"I activate my facedown card, Compendium Fee. I pay half my life points to summon a Persona from my hand." Yu explained.
Compendium Fee
Normal Spell Card

(Yu: 0200)
A glowing blue book appeared in front of Yu before one of the cards in his hand started glowing as well. "Thanks to the Compendium I can summon Aeon Persona Kaguya Hime to the field in attack mode."

ATK: 2800
DEF: 2500
Once per turn you can target one monster on the field and destroy it. (Other effects to be revealed.)
"Uh... Crikey move but it's attack points are not high enough for you to win." Blair told him.
"Once per turn Kaguya destroys a monster on the field, I destroy Undine." Yu revealed. "Hamaon!"
Blair's eyes widen in horror as the Persona on her field shattered.
"Now like I said, let's end the duel." Yu said. "Kaguya Hime attack Blair directly with Mahamaon!"
The Persona didn't gave mercy as Blair stared on in horror as the attack hit where she knelled with her hands on the ground.
Yu: 0200
Blair: 0000
Yu wins the duel!
"Sweet duel!" Jaden grinned.
Yu walked over before offering Blair his hand. "Are you alright?"
"...Never better." Blair said taking his hand as he helped her up, "Guess now I have to say my secret now."
"Guess so." Yu nodded.
"Nah we already know a few things." Jaden grinned, "And I think they know as well."
At that he directed to where the group had walked down to where their at.
"Zane, your here!" Blair cried surprised.
"You left this in my room." he told her handing Blair a hair clip.
"My Happy Lover hair clip!" Blair cheered taking it before saying, "I guess you know. I was the one who snuck in your room not Jaden. I've been in love with you since we met."
"At the Nationals." Zane nodded remembered.
Blair smiled, "Yeah, that's right! We met right after you won the Championship Match! It was then I made a pledge: That I would do anything to be with you!"
"Oh, that's so sweet." Rise smiled as she took Syrus' hand.
Syrus smiled back to her.
"I remember, you said that if I trained really really hard, I could get into Duel Academy like you, so I did!" Blair smiled, "And now that I'm here, we can get married!"
That made everyone but Jaden sweatdropped.
"Uh... It doesn't work like that." Yukiko said to her.
Alexis nodded, "You can't sneak your way into somebody's heart. Look at what happened to your Maiden. She used tricks to get love, and she ended up alone and in tears. You can't use spells or disguises to find your soul mate, Blair. You have to be honest and up-front with them. Like these two here."
She gestured to Rise, and Syrus at that. Syrus blushed at that but smiled.
"Yeah, right! You, or one of these girls want Zane for yourself!" Blair yelled with jealously evident in her voice.
"Blair, no we don't." Chie told her. "Naoto-kun, Rise-chan, and I are already in relationships."
"And... I already have my eyes on someone." Jasmine admitted turning to Teddie.
"See Blair?" Yu asked.
Zane took this to continue, "Blair, as flattered as I am by your affections... right now, I'm in love with on thing: Dueling."
"Dueling?" Blair asked.
"I'm sorry, but it's time for you to go home." Zane told her.
"Huh, isn't that a little harsh?" Teddie asked.
"Her disguise did fool you." Zane told them.
"What do you mean? That she was hiding her feelings, or does she hold her talent to take you down?" Jaden joked grinning.
However what Zane said caught everyone by surprise, "She has to go home because she's in second grade."
"Second grade!?" Syrus cried in horror.
"Wow, She's the same age as Nana-Chan." Teddie smiled.
"So your saying... That Yu almost got beaten by a girl who's over 8 years old!?" Jaden asked in shock.
Sticking her tongue out Blair grinned, "8 and a half, if it makes you feel any better!"
At that Jaden dropped anime style with his legs sticking in the air.
"Well Jaden, you might be right. Blair might take Zane down once she's a little older." Yu noted.
The next day...
Blair was getting out a ship where her parents are at to leave Duel Academy. Everyone was waving goodbye.
"So Zane you expecting for her to be back?" Jaden grinned.
Zane told him, "Oh, please, I'll be long gone by the time she gets here."
"What do you mean?" Yosuke asked.
"This is my last year here so when she gets here I'm already graduating." Zane said walking off.
"Oh, that makes sense." Chie admitted.
"Ah... Guess that was one of your most memorable duels isn't it Yu?" Jaden asked his silver haired friend.
"You mean of my four? Yeah." Yu nodded.
"Glad to see the Duel Disks, I modified had worked up." Bastion grinned, "Either that or Personas attacking you doesn't count."
"It's when a Persona is destroyed in battle, not through an effect." Yu reminded him.
"I meant if they attacked you." Bastion reminded, "Undine did strike you twice you know."
"That was never an issue." Yu explained.
"Well maybe we can see next time." Bastion said to them.
"No. Not yet." Bastion answered.
Yu nodded.
bopdog111: Okay that takes care of the Maiden.
Ulrich362: Yup.
bopdog111: And now we're nearing the School Duel.
Ulrich362: Very true, see you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
