The Beginning of Destiny

"You're the one that requested this duel, now its time to finish it." Will said, "I sacrifice my three monsters to summon The Wicked Dreadroot!"

The arena started to feel like an arctic breeze when the three monsters disappeared and were replaced by what looked like Obelisk the Tormentor after getting off of a really bad diet.

"The Wicked Dreadroot, where have I heard that name before?" Bastion asked himself.

"Hey, Syrus, doesn't he look like one of Yugi's god cards?" Jaden asked his friend.

"Yeah, he looks like Obelisk the Tormentor." Syrus said.

When the word 'god' reached his ears, he realized where he heard that name before, "Oh no, it can't be." Bastion said, getting the three Slifers' attention, "He has summoned a Wicked God card."

"Wicked God card?" Alexis asked Zane when she heard him use that term, "I thought Yugi was the only one to have God cards?"

"You and me both, but what most people don't know is that like fire and ice, even the Egyptian God cards have opposites, which are the Wicked Gods. Not much is known about them except that when they were first used, which was against the King of Games himself and after their owner was defeated, they disappeared, some thinking that they were destroyed during the duel. The one thing that researchers believe is that like their counterparts, the Wicked Gods got so much power, and they choose who they want to wield them, but if the person is weak-hearted, like my brother, then it would be the cards that would be in control."

Alexis's eyes went wide after hearing this, "I hope Will isn't over his head by summoning that monster." She said, with concern in her voice.

Crowler looked like he was about to faint on the spot because this monster was more than capable of finishing him off. "You wouldn't dare?" Crowler said, trying to bluff his way out of this attack.

"Oh yeah, like that would have stopped you." Will said, "Dreadroot, finish off his life points without doing any serious damage to him." The monster did what it was told, and the only thing it did was flick Crowler away with just his finger like he was nothing more then a bug, right out of the field, which also caused the rest of his life points to go down to 0.

"And the winner is William Rawelk." The announcer said, while Will placed the deck back into its box. He looked up towards the audience to see what their response was going to be.

Right now, everyone was shocked because this Slifer has just defeated a teacher without even losing a single life point. The only thing most of them would do is to stand up and give him a little applause from both the entire Slifer and Ra dorms, and a good portion of the Obelisk students, while the rest were just were giving him a little glare. He looked at his friends, and gave them a two finger salute before leaving the room.

"Now we know who was in control of whom during that duel." Alexis said, before looking at Zane, who was looking at Will as if he suspected something.

Two hours later, a couple miles away from the Slifer dorm, Will was just taking a little nap underneath a tree; with his cap covering his eyes, his hands on his chest and his head resting on his duel disk. It wasn't until when a shadow came over his body that only one word came out of his mouth, "Yes?"

"I was wondering if I could sit right next to you Mr. Rawelk?" A girl's voice asked.

"Sure, go right ahead." Will answered back. When he heard her take a seat, "So would you care to tell me your name, or should I take a guess at it?" He asked before sitting up slightly, raising his cap up slightly to look at her.

The girl has long dark red hair reaching all the way down to her back, and bright blue eyes, and judging by the shape of her face, Japanese. He could tell that the girl was using all of her strength not to runaway judging by the way she was blushing all over and with the tips of her fingers touching each other. "My name is Aeris, and I was wondering if you can tell me how you can stay so calm through everything, especially duels against opponents that I hear are among the strongest in the academy."

Will just chuckled before answering, "Let's just say I've been dueling ever since I managed to get my first real deck built. The reason why I'm so calm during a duel is because I've learned to follow Yugi's 'heart of the cards' philosophy, so basically I try not to let my cards down, and the deck will be more then willing to return the favor."

Aeris was starting to feel less nervous now, "And what about that thing you did when you summoned that monster to make it seem so real? I mean everyone in the arena felt like the place was getting haunted or something."

"I'm not entirely sure of it myself." Will said, while he lays back down onto the ground, "From what I understand of it, it's like having a sixth sense, kind of like something similar to a psychic, except with duel monster spirits. I can see them, and interact with them, and the fact that I can make the cards seem real. Doctors and psychiatrists have seen this before, but the only difference between me and the rest is the fact that I can turn mine off and on by choice."

Aeris looked like she wasn't entirely convinced by this, "You mean to tell me that you have control over something that would scare most people to death?" She asked.

"Well, I'm that stubborn, and the one thing that I really hate is to be controlled by somebody, so yeah." He answered, "Now if you would excuse while I continue my nap because summoning and controlling Dreadroot tends to wear me out a little whenever I summon him."

Aeris just sat there for about a minute, while listening to both the ocean and the sound of the boy breathing next to her. Deciding to take a chance, she laid her body over until her body was resting onto Will's chest. Her entire body went red after feeling what the boy's chest felt like underneath, and she wasn't sure if she should stay until she felt an arm being placed around her abdomen, just above her waist, making her feel like she was safe and protected from any danger, so she decided to close her eyes and join in on the nap.

About a few minutes later, Jaden, Syrus, and Chumley were walking down the usual path towards their dorms, talking away. One of the main subjects of course was the duel until they spotted something that most Slifers would be envious of: Will taking a nap under the tree, with an Obelisk girl asleep in his arms. "Man, wouldn't you know it that Will has barely even been here for over a week and he's already got a girl." Syrus said, getting into his usual mood.

"I know, and that's why a lot of Slifers try hard to pass the transfer exams into Ra so that way the girls would at least look in their direction." Chumley said.

Of course, the one who has to ruin the moment is the one without a clue, "Hey Will, wake up! It's almost dinnertime." Jaden said.

Will opened his eyes and looked down at the girl sleeping on him. He tried to nudge her awake, only for her to tighten her grip while trying to stay comfortable. While most people would have the decency to blush at this, Will didn't feel like being decent. "As comfortable as it is having you as a blanket, you really need to get up now."

As soon as his voice reached her ears, Aeris's eyes popped open, and looked up to make eye contact with her pillow. When she saw that they were looking right back, her face blushed as red as her hair as she quickly jumped onto her feet. "I'm sorry for that." She said, while trying to avoid eye contact with anybody.

"Don't be, you've made a perfect blanket." Will said as he stood up and dusted himself off before grabbing his duel disk, "Anyway, if you want, meet me in front of the main building about an hour or two before the test tomorrow. Right now, I want to make sure I have enough to grab some dinner and get one of my decks ready to go."

Aeris blushed even redder then her hair, if that was even possible, and left to go to her dorms, while Will walked up to his friends, "Man Will, I didn't know you had it in you." Syrus said, as they started walking.

"Yeah Will, when the guys at the dorms hear about this, there going to be so jealous." Chumley said.

"Just keep it between us for now okay?" Will said, which was more like an order, "We've just met not that long ago, and we're just starting out as friends. If you tell anybody about this, and word spreads, the last thing I need is to put her in a spot that would make even Syrus faint."

They understood his reasoning, and nodded in agreement. The silence was once again shattered when Jaden's stomach growled, "Hey come on guys we need to hurry up and get something to eat." He said before running at full speed.

"He'll never change, will he?" Will said as he started running.

"Not really." Both Syrus and Chumley said, while trying to keep up with the other two.

Sorry if the chapter is shorter than the other two, its just that I wanted to throw in a little love heading towards my character's way, plus I'm still trying to figure how I want to do the first test of the year, mainly who my character will be dueling against during the field exam. Everything else mainly goes accordingly with the show, especially Jaden's duel against Chazz. Read and Review.
