A/N: Sorry for the late update. Testing just finished a while ago and I have writer's block. I apologize. : ( Review? No one reviews much :p

In Duel Academy, everything was normal. This gave everyone a reason to be worried. Even Atticus who was hospitalized barely a few weeks before May came was acting like a perfect brother. No teasing, no annoying, and not even showing off to his fangirls! (Cue the dramatic music.)

Jaden had gotten over his animal paranoia and spent the day dueling. Nothing abnormal about that, right? Jaden plus dueling equals normal.

May spent the day training with her Pokémon. At one point Chazz came over to watch. But that's exactly when she called out Blaziken. However, this time, Chazz and Blaziken got along pretty well.

Alexis wasn't too sad about what happened with Zane! She even stopped sulking! She dueled Jaden and various other students the whole day. Bastion continued being a math nerd. Syrus spent the day looking through his cards.

Yup. Totally normal day. Something horrible was bound to happen later on. You could just feel it. And that's exactly what happened.

**********************************************************************************************************

"Morning May!" Jaden greeted trying to squeeze the water out of his hair. He just finished taking a shower, but someone replaced his mint shampoo (his mom sent it) with a shampoo smelling like mango. At least now his hair was more conditioned than ever.

"Hi Jay! You smell like…Kiwi? No wait, mangos!" Even May noticed the change. Well of course. You could smell the fruity goodness reeking from Jaden from pretty far away.

The sun was shining very brightly making it impossible for May to read without wearing sunglasses. She was rocking herself on a wooden, old, rocking chair with a book about Pokémon contests and how to groom your Pokémon.

"Yeah, someone replaced my shampoo." Abruptly, May stopped rocking and took her sunglasses off. Briefly, her eyes stung from the sharpness of the sunlight but she proceeded to talk.

"Really? Someone replaced my shampoo too!" Jaden stopped squeezing his hair to raise an eyebrow.

"I bet it's a prank for us Slifers. My conditioner was replaced! I had to use that extra L'oreal bottle on my purse!" Alexis groaned out.

"L'oreal isn't that bad," Jaden commented. He used it numerous times. Those shampoos had the best smell ever! Plus, they left your hair looking awesome! Sleek and shiny. Alexis rolled her eyes. This was not the time to be discussing the pros and cons of shampoos.

"I know! Personally, I prefer L'oreal over any other shampoo."

"Okay, okay. Gosh! We need to know who pranked us so we can get them back!" Alexis put both her hands on her hips looking around the porch of the Slifer Dorms to see if she could find any clues.

"Aww give it up Alexis! We all know it's got to be Chazz," Syrus remarked, his hands across his chest with a pout on his lips making him look adorable! Well everyone did suspect Chazz at one time or another. His grudge against all Slifers was proof enough. However, Chazz decided to make his appearance and prove his innocence right then and there.

"Why don't you shut up ya nimrod. My shampoo went missing too." Syrus shrugged and continued glaring at Chazz. May could've made "aww" noises. How cute was that? Syrus looked like a little puffball. You could just eat him up because of his cuteness!

"Weird…Chazz wasn't the pranker this time." Now everyone was super confused. What kind of odd thing was happening in the school? What kind of evil being would do such a thing?

"Well…The only thing we really can do is investigate." May got up off the rocker and gestured towards the other dorm.

"I'm with her on that." Alexis got up and swiftly joined May.

"Same here." Syrus stood in the middle of May and Alexis.

"Me too." Jaden joined the others too. Now the only person left was Chazz. Everyone threw him pointed looks. Chazz rolled his eyes before joining them too. He made sure to take his sweet time.

"And now we're back on May's expedition. This time, we're with Jaden, Alexis, Syrus, and cheese-I mean Chazz." She grinned at Chazz who threw her a dirty look. With her imaginary camera she pretended to video tape everyone.

Alexis threw her golden locks over her shoulder and winked at the "camera." Chazz gave the camera a very dark look. Jaden grinned crookedly and ran a hand through his hair. May found that to be, surprisingly, endearing. It made her heart flutter like the wings of a butterfly. Like a sail in the wind. Like Juliet's dress in a tornado! (Too many similes there.)

"This expedition is headed to the Obelisk blue dorms. Obviously, someone from there decided to prank us innocent reds. It could be the yellows, but no one there is that cruel."

"Well I hate to break it to you." Alexis and May shrieked as an unexpected voice spoke. However, the person speaking wasn't any kind of villain. It was just Bastion. There was something different about him though…It was…His hair? It wasn't in spikes…It was all curly…

"We Yellows, as you put it, have gotten our shampoo replaced too. Someone even managed to steal my bottle of gel." Bastion looked ready to cry like one of those girls who sobbed to death when they had to wear a shirt that did not go with their pants. How tragic.

"Oh…That's sad?" May said, trying to make Bastion feel better. Bastion blew his nose in his handkerchief that had…equations on it. How appropriate? Bastion suddenly got up and ran to his dorm, his curly hair bouncing behind him.

"That was-"

"-Weird." Syrus said, finishing May's sentence. May had a nervous grin on her face when she looked towards the blue dorm.

"SOMEONE REPLACED MY SHAMPOO WITH MUD!" Everyone covered their ears at the have manly and half womanly screech of Dr. Crowler. Notice it says Doctor and not Mister or Miss. Dr. Crowler came running out, his hair covered in poop brown mud. Syrus out a hand over his mouth to try and stop his giggles. The rest of the group copied his actions. About after five minutes, they were on the floor rolling around in laughter.

"Now that's one shampoo replacement I can live with," Chazz said causing everyone to burst into giggles again. To any outsider, this whole situation would look weird. 5 kids rolling on the floor, a teacher with poop/mud in his hair, students wearing blue uniforms sobbing…But no one here was an outsider. Now if only Seto Kaiba could see what was going on in that school of his.

After everyone calmed down, Syrus broke the silence and said," You don't think the shadow idiots had something to do with this. Do you?"

"Syrus, that's ridiculous." Syrus turned red after Alexis told him his idea was ridiculous. Of course it sounded ridiculous. Evil villains replacing shampoo for their own amusement. However, May had a thoughtful look on her face. Alexis sweatdropped.

"Oh come on May! You don't believe that nonsense-"

"Oh, but it makes sense! Look at it this way. It may not have bothered us Slifers excluding Chazz. But it bothered some of the Obelisk Blues and Ra Yellows, am I wrong? So it did some kind of emotional scarring to them." Alexis still had a skeptical look on her face. Chazz and Jaden nodded in understanding. It made sense! With emotional scarring, the duelist from the upper levels wouldn't be able to duel as well. It would be easier to take over of the school.

"Believe what you want you guys. Believe what you want." Alexis put her hands up in defeat. There was no other explanation for this so she had no argument.

"Do you want to check on the other teachers?" May asked, her hands on her hips, looking ready for adventure.

"Sure…" Alexis said, a bit hesitant because of May's sudden burst of energy. The guys just shrugged and followed the two girls.

"Replaced shampoo bottles? Mine wasn't replaced," Professor Banner claimed. Everyone stared at him, their mouths hanging. The first person to be able to take care of their shampoo. And the plot thickens.

"All around D.A everyone's said that their shampoo bottles were replaced. This doesn't make sense. "

"Maybe it was just the students who's bottles were replaced," Banner suggested holding onto his own shampoo bottle. He wasn't ready to lose it yet.

Syrus shook his head," Mister- Doctor Crowler," he corrected," already got his shampoo replaced."

"But maybe, just maybe, he was the only teacher victim," Chazz suggested, thinking aloud.

"You've got a good point there Chazzy boy." Insert angry anime mark on forehead. " I believe this may be the work of those shadow-"

"Am I the only sane person left in this world?" Alexis screeched shrilly.

"Hahah! Do you really want to know Lexi?" Everyone turned to see a familiar teen with teal hair holding…
