Yu-Gi-Oh! GX
The Beginning of Destiny
Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh, its spin-offs, or its games, just the main character and the extras I throw in.
This chapter is going to be based on the episode, Formula for Success.
At the academy gym the boys from Slifer and Ra are playing a game of baseball, with Ra at the bat. Will was at a different part of the gym, using one of the batting cages that was setup.
Right now it's Reds at the bat and Yellows out on the field. While watching slightly out of the corner of his eye, while keeping some concentration on smacking the next baseball, Will couldn't help but shake his head at what he just seen. What was going on is that the Reds were in the lead, with Jaden getting ready to swing, when Bastion came in, apologizing for being too focused on his studies.
When he watched as Bastion even the playing field by striking out Jaden and the next two Slifers after him, Will knew that Jaden wasn't going to take what happened lying down, considering that he has walked the last three Ra's. When Bastion came to the plate, Will didn't need to watch the results. After smacking the next ball, and watching as Crowler walked into the path of Bastion's homer, or in this case, a homing balls-eye. When the final baseball came flying, Will sent it flying over the net and noticing where it was heading, he decided to follow it.
Crowler was having a little talk with Bastion, with Jaden and Syrus eavesdropping, even though he still has the ball attached to his eye, when *WHACK* *SMACK* he got hit in the other eye by another baseball.
Will walked up just as the professor was recovering from his double whammy. "You know Professor, when they tell you to keep your eye, or in your case, eyes, on the ball, they don't mean it literally." He said, getting a couple of snickers from his friends.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on the person, Crowler was pointing towards open space yelling "Why am I not surprised that you have a hand in this?" He rhetorically asked.
"No, it was the bat that was in my hands that did this." Will answered, "So what did I interrupt?"
"Oh Professor Crowler wanted to talk to me about something." Bastion explained.
"Well, I'm going to go hit the showers before I head to class." Will said, before leaving, with Jaden and Syrus not too far behind him.
The next day, Will is having a little chat with Jaden, Syrus, Chumley and Bastion when a loud commotion got their attention. They looked to see that Chazz and Crowler are having a few words; Chazz's being him becoming a Ra Yellow.
When Crowler gave him the reason behind it, which was because he lost to Jaden, all of the Obelisk students burst out laughing. "This is one of the reasons why I don't want to become an Obelisk." Will said, "No loyalty, just a dorm full of spoiled brats who are willing to stab you in the back, and the same can be said about the person who runs it."
Crowler's ears picked up on this, "Are you, Mr. Rawelk, indicating that Obelisk Blue is just a paradise for our elite?" He asked, "Where only the best of the best can live."
"No, the only good one inside both dorms is Zane, Alexis and Aeris." Will countered, "The rest are just a bunch of spoiled brats who got to be in the top dorm because their parents are loaded enough to where they don't have to do a thing for themselves, or those looking to climb up the status ladder by hanging out with those of higher standing." This caused most of the Obelisks, to go red in anger, "As for the best of the best, well, if you're going to demote your students just for losing a duel or two from those from lower ranking dorms, then you might as well demote a good portion of your dorm considering my track record with them." This turned all the male Obelisks pale at the thought that if Crowler could do that to one, then he could do it to them, "Although considering what I read in the rulebook about abuse of certain powers, and the fact that you lost to two Slifers, then does that mean you are just as acceptable to demotion as well?"
The entire room was in a state of shock. Even though they were used to Will standing up to Crowler, they were shocked at how he was able to take Crowler apart piece by piece, and considering that his legs were shaking out of fear, and his entire body was flushed, what was said was the truth. "Anyway, let's get started with today's lesson."
After school was over for the day, word spread once again about how Will ripped Crowler a new one, something that impressed even the staff due to the fact that Crowler tends to rub them the wrong way too. Right now everybody was busy getting to enjoy the rest of the day.
Bastion, Jaden and Syrus arrived at Bastion's dorm room, with Bastion explaining how he uses science for just about everything. When a familiar face exited his room with a duel disk on his arm, "Hey Will, got another dueling date with Aeris?" Bastion asked.
"Yeah, and after this, she should be more comfortable with the deck she has been building from scratch." Will said, "She has definitely come a long way in a short amount of time."
"Why does Aeris need to build a deck from scratch?" Syrus asked.
"Let's just say an upperclasswoman talked her into a bad trade with her old one and giving her a deck full of leftovers." Will answered.
"That's cold." Jaden said, "What was she afraid of, Aeris doing better than her."
"No, it's just that Aeris is a trusting soul and since she was a first year, it didn't take much to take advantage of her." Will said, "The one thing that student didn't count on was that somebody would have the nerve to turn her in."
When Will walked away, "And I believe a god card was used to settle the dispute." Bastion said, as the trio entered his room.
The Slifer pair gasped when they noticed that all of the walls and even the ceiling was covered by formulas and theories. "Where are we?" Syrus asked.
"My laboratory, my workshop, my room." Bastion answered, "Although Will tends to call it the Nerd Cave." He then started to explain what each wall is for, while putting his things away, "Although for some reason, there is never enough room to write down all of my formulas."
"So why did you bring us here, Bastion?" Jaden asked.
Bastion turned around to show a bucket of paint and brush in his hands, "Well, if you would please help me." He said, with a big grin saying that they just got drafted.
A hour later, with the happy couple, they finished the duel half an hour ago, with Aeris finally comfortable completely with her new deck, even though Will came out the victor as usual. The one thing she learned while dueling was that her boyfriend never pulls back any punches, period.
Unfortunately a pair of Obelisk boys showed up and decided to challenge him to a two-on-one duel, which Will decided to accept. What was unusual about this duel is that Will stuck mainly on the defense, with either monsters with either high defense points or can't be destroyed in battle. While the boys either thought he was mocking them or if they got lucky on catching him tired from his last duel, Aeris knew better. The one thing that Will told her over and over again is to never take anything at face value, especially in a duel, or else you'll might end up missing something crucial.
Right now it's Will's turn, his life points still full, with all five monsters in defense, and two face up cards in his spell and trap zones, the spell card Heart of the Underdog and the trap card Human-Wave Tactics. He has four cards in his hand, yet nobody was able to become the wiser because people tend to focus more on the field and less on the background. Drawing from his deck, he took one look at it and placed it in his hand. "This duel is over." He said.
"Giving up already, Reject?" One of the boys said, (I'm lousy with names okay?) causing both to laugh until a dark round void appeared in front of them, with a pentagram (lines shaped like a star), and a very familiar figure came out of it. When it came out, it looked like a pharaoh with a steroid problem.
"It's over because I was able to gather all five of Exodia the Forbidden One into my hand." Will said his counter out onto the field, "Now Exodia, Obliterate!" When Exodia did his version of the Kamehaha Wave, both Obelisks were sent flying, their cards flying all over the place. After placing his cards back into his deck, which in turn returned the deck into its box, and the his duel disk back in the rest position, "Now we have the rest of the day to ourselves."
"Yeah, and hopefully no more interruptions." Aeris said, as the two walked away hand-in-hand.
When they left, out in the forest was a familiar mannequin looking professor, not only teething at the fact that his plan to bring the boy down blew up in his face, yet to add even more insult to injury, along with the Wicked God cards, he also has Exodia. Right now the only thing going through his mind was does that Ra understand the pecking order at the academy?
Later, when the stars are out, Will came back from after dropping Aeris off at the lake. When he approached the entrance, a shadow with a rooster haircut came running out of the dorms, nearly running him over if he didn't dodge in time. "Okay, what would cause somebody like Chazz to make an appearance at a dorm that is below his standards?" He asked nobody in particular.
When he was approaching his room, he noticed the furniture outside of Bastion's room, "Looks like somebody ran out of walls to write on again." Will said, knowing that one of the reasons why Bastion does this is because he is a workaholic by nature. After getting a closer look, he noticed that the desk had its drawers searched, "That completes the puzzle completely."
When he approached his room, "Tomorrow is going to be a battle of brain vs. ego and I already know what the results are." He said as he entered.
The next day found Will, Aeris, Alexis and Zane walking through the tunnel leading towards the Obelisk Dueling Field. When they got out of the tunnel, Chazz was blowing off some accusations of throwing Bastion's cards into the water.
"Is that so?" Alexis countered, "I saw you Chazz at the docks, throwing his cards into the water."
"And how do you know that it wasn't my cards that I was throwing away?" Chazz said, knowing that they wouldn't have any proof.
"Considering the fact that is was you that I saw running out of the Ra dorms last night, then it wasn't hard to figure out the rest." Will said, "Amongst other things."
Both Crowler and Chazz sweat dropped at this, but decided to continue on.
(Everything else is canon, Bastion beats Chazz and turns down the promotion.)
Here is the latest chapter. Sorry for not updating as much as I should, it's just hard to write whenever allergies are involved. Read and review.
