I introduce more Yu-Gi-Oh GX characters into this now so I hope they are in character and hope you enjoy

"They're after something called the Rainbow Dragon." Zayn stated just as Jaden walked into the room the others were in.

"Hey, didn't know you back yet." Jaden said though Zayn and Aster only frowned at him. The three were the older of their band of, well Jaden didn't really know what they were a band of, and they had a habit of disappearing at odd times. The two of them had been gone for a few weeks now, leaving Syrus (Zayn's younger brother) a little panicked. There was also the added problem that without Zayn there, the rest of their group weren't all that organised. If not for Jim Cook and Axel Brodie, then someone would have probably gotten themselves killed. Most likely Jaden as everyone did keep telling him he was reckless.

"Sorry, what's the Rainbow Dragon?" Jaden interrupted, getting a glare from Zayn who wasn't one for liking when people interrupted him.

"The Rainbow Dragon is a powerful duel monster that, legend says, is supposed to get rid of the darkness." Aster replied. "The problem is, no one knows where it is." Jaden frowned at that. If what Aster said was true then maybe this Rainbow Dragon could help them get rid of those shadow creatures and Yubel, the person behind all of the suffering in this world.

"So how do we find it?" Jaden asked.

"No one knows. In fact, most people don't even think it exists." Jim replied, making Jaden frown.

"That's were your wrong." Zayn interrupted. All eyes turned to him expectantly but when he didn't continue, they turned to Aster.

"You know dude, it would help if you explained yourself in these situations." Aster told Zayn who merely shrugged. "We cornered a group of monsters the other night and they were talking about the Rainbow Dragon. They said they'd found it living inside of someone and that they were going to bring this person to Yubel. When we tried getting more information out of them though, they clammed up. Wouldn't say anything didn't even acknowledge what they'd already said to us."

"What guy?" Chazz asked but Jaden wasn't listening. He was thinking about when they'd found Jesse. There'd been a bright light then and Jaden could have sworn he'd seen some sort of shadow but he'd put it down to his imagination. And then there was the fact that Miss Fontaine, their resident nurse, had told them the injuries Jesse had gotten hadn't been substantial enough to make him lose consciousness for the amount of time he had. She'd said it was as if he'd lost a lot of energy.

"What's up Serge?" Hasslebury turned to Jaden who only shrugged.

"What more do we know about the Rainbow Dragon?" Axel turned back to Aster and Zayn.

"Not much, only that the legend says it takes its power from 7 duel monsters." Aster replied.

"So if we find these 7 duel monsters…" Alexis started.

"We should find the Rainbow Dragon." Zayn finished.

"The problem is none of us know what these duel monsters are." Aster continued. There were looks of disappointment on everyone's faces when Aster grinned at them. "Except there might be one person who does."

"Who?" They asked.

"Maximillion Pegasus." Zayn replied. "Myself and Aster are going to talk to him." No one could argue with that. "So we expect all of you to not cause any problems while we're gone."

"The Chazz doesn't cause problems'. That's all Jaden." Chazz argued just as Winged Kuriboh appeared on Jaden's shoulder.

"What's up?" Jaden asked as the small duel monster hovered at his shoulder.

"Kri Kri." Winged Kuriboh said, making Jaden start with worry.

"What do you mean Jesse's gone?"

"One second. Jaden, who's Jesse?" Aster interrupted before Jaden could disappear from the room.

Jaden had left Alexis and Syrus to explain who Jesse was to Zayn and Aster as he followed Winged Kuriboh. From the urgency Winged Kuriboh was leading him on, Jaden got the feeling that Jesse was in some sort of trouble and he wasn't about to leave the bluenette to deal with it on his own. Axel and Jim had volunteered to come with him, not wanting to leave Jaden on his own. Especially not when night was falling fast.

"We should be heading back." Axel called from behind Jaden but the brunette just ignored him. They couldn't leave Jesse out here, not when he was injured.

"Just a little further." Jaden shouted back at Jim and Axel as Winged Kuriboh led him further onwards. They were walking just around the edges of the forest they'd found Jesse in. While this area wasn't as densely dark, Jaden could still feel the watchful eyes of the monsters that lived in the forest. They were watching them, waiting for a moment to attack. Jaden cautiously fingered his deck, not wanting to be unprepared when the creatures decided to attack them.

He didn't realise he'd slowed down until Jim and Axel fell into step beside him. "I don't like this." Jim said as Shirley growled. The crocodile was strapped to Jim's back but Jaden didn't think she'd be much help even if she was on the ground.

"We need to find Jesse."

"Chances are he's long gone by now." Axel replied and a small part of Jaden thought maybe Axel was right. "We need to head back." Jaden was about to argue when Kuriboh once more appeared in front of them.

Without another thought, Jaden followed Winged Kuriboh further into the forest. They came out on a bog filled area of the forest. "Slow down there mate." Jim grabbed a hold of Jaden before he could go toppling into said bog. "You don't want to go in there." Shirley was growling at Jim's back now so he let her off. She quickly disappeared into the undergrowth.

"I've ever been in this area before." Jaden stated. He'd travelled in the forest a few times, never alone obviously, but he'd never come across any sort of bog.

"Lucky we have then mate." Jim replied. He and Axel had travelled together long before they'd met Jaden and the others. It was more a chance meeting really, Hasslebury had ended up duelling Jim in a fit of 'dino-rage'. When Jim had won, Jaden had asked them to com and stay with them. That had resulted in the two joining Jaden and the others.

Axel was silent as he pushed a path through the bog, having given up trying to get Jaden to turn back. "Now, if I remember correctly this here path comes out on a small village. Of course we haven't been there for a while so it might have moved."

"Maybe that's were Jesse went." Jaden said enthusiastically following Axel.

About half an hour later they came to the end of the path and came out on a large clearing. Most humans had been driven underground by the duel monsters under the control of Yubel. No one knew why but she hated all humans and had made it her mission to destroy them all. The few villages that survived lived in fear of the day Yubel decided to destroy them.

When they were younger, Jaden, Alexis, Syrus, Zayn, Chazz and Atticus (Alexis' older brother) had lived with that fear. Their village had been small and Jaden had thought that, maybe just maybe, Yubel would ignore them. They'd been wrong. One night her creatures had attacked them without warning, killing everyone is sight. The only reason Jaden and the other's had gotten out was because of Atticus, who had distracted the creatures long enough for the others to get out. After that, they'd all decided to destroy Yubel for what she'd done to their family. It wasn't long after that that they met Hasslebury, then Aster and eventually Axel and Jim.

Those creatures had destroyed Jaden's home and they'd done the same thing here. In the middle of the rubble and destruction, Jesse was standing with his back to them. "Jesse." Jaden called, running towards the bluenette. His face was black with soot and his clear emerald eyes were full of tears and anger. "Are you okay?"

"They killed them." Was the only thing Jesse said.
