And the final standings are…well, I guess you'll have to read to find out.

I don't own GX or Pokémon.

Aster was dead right, as much as I hate to admit it, Chazz thought as he lay on his bed. Jaden—the slacker—doesn't deserve to steal all the credit for defeating that 'threat' over there. That's why I should go and keep an eye on him. But then again, speaking of Aster…Chazz sat up. I want to be a Pro. How will that happen if I don't attend…half of one of three years, that's…a sixth of high school?!

"UGH!" Chazz moaned. "What do I do?"

"Hey, Boss!" Ojama Yellow appeared and floated in circles around Chazz's head. "You what I think you should do? Since you won't be able to see us in that other dimension…"

Ojamas Black and Green appeared with Yellow and joined in. "YOU GOTTA STAY HERE!!"

"THAT'S TEARS IT!" Chazz roared. "There no way I'm passing up an opportunity to be rid of you dweebs!"

"What?!" Ojama Yellow squeaked.

"But Boss—" Black started.

"—you can't!" Green finished.

"Oh, yeah?" Chazz growled. "Watch me." And with that, Chazz stormed out of his luxury Slifer dorm room, intent on finding Sheppard and accepting his invitation.

"You haven't been out here in a while," Atticus noted.

Alexis jumped and wheeled around, recognizing her brother's voice. "Atti!"

Atticus smiled sadly and sat beside his sister on the pier by the lighthouse. "You used to come out here all the time…with Zane." Alexis nodded and Atticus paused, gazing at her. "You're staying, aren't you?"

Alexis sighed. "Yes."

"Why?"

"…"

"Come on, Lexi. You can tell me."

"I want…I want to be a teacher. Here." Alexis shook her head. "I won't be able to if a miss a whole half a year of school…But it's not just that!" she added quickly when Atticus opened his mouth to speak. "Crowler recommended me to study overseas…in North America. (A/N: I know it technically hasn't happened yet, but oh well) They won't accept me if—"

"You miss half a year of school," Atticus finished. "I see."

"…And you are going," Alexis accused softly after a moment.

Atticus seemed taken aback for a moment, but immediately recovered. "Yeah." He put his arm around his sister. "Yeah, I am."

Silence. Then…

"I'll miss you, Atti."

"I'll miss you too, Lex," Atticus responded, pulling her into a tight hug.

"Aw, man, what do I do?!" Syrus squeaked as he paced, alone in the woods by the Slifer dorms. "Should I stay? Or…do I go?"

Syrus blinked. "Jaden's going…so is Aster. That probably means Chazz is going—he hates them both, but it's like Aster said, they aren't gonna let Jay steal all the glory again…so I need to decide: do I like Jaden enough to get around my dislike for Chazz?"

"Hmm…" Syrus had to think about that one for a second. "…Yeah, I'd say so. It's settled then. See ya in half a year, Duel Academy."

"So…are you going, Hassleberry?" Jaden asked hopefully. "Huh, huh?"

"If I've told ya once, soldier, I've told ya a thousand times: NO!" Hassleberry roared.

"Why noooooooooot?" Jaden whined.

"I told ya that a hundred times," Hassleberry murmured. "My folks ain't letting me go."

"Why no—?" Jaden started to repeat himself, but Jesse, who was sitting next to Jaden on his bed, clamped a hand over his mouth. Jesse had just come over to alert Jaden that he was coming with him. That's what had started this whole conversation in the first place. When Jesse finally removed his hand, Jaden tried again. "But we need you! Remember, you're the, uh, Mighty, right?"

"Strength, Jay," Hassleberry corrected. "Sartorius called me the Strength, Aster the Prince, and you the Fool. Whoa, that tarot deck sure is accurate."

"Right…" Jesse sweatdropped, having no idea what either of his friends was talking about.

"And anyway," Hassleberry continued. "If it's the same exact thing over there, then you'll beat the light and save the day, no problem. Heck, I never even got to duel a Society zombie, except for Sartorius, and he came after me."

Jaden blinked. "That's a good point."

"Well, I am beyond confused, so I'll just, uh, leave," Jesse stated, confusedly.

"Oh, no you don't, Jess!" Jaden exclaimed, grabbing Jesse's shirt and yanking him back down on his bed. "We'll tell ya the whole story, start to finish!"

Jesse rolled his eyes and pulled out his phone. "Oh, goody. Just let me call the other three—they won't want to miss this." If I have to be subjected to this, I'm making the rest of them do it, too.

Fifteen minutes later, Syrus had come back to the dorm with his decision to go, and Jaden was telling the story of the Society of Light Arc to the transfers, just as it happened…sorta:

"And then—BAM!—Sartorius whipped out his laser gun—zzztttt!—and pointed it at Aster! Then, chains appeared outta nowhere and wrapped around me, Sy, and Sarge! Then—zzztttt…BLAM! Sartorius vaporized Aster! Then, Sartorius turned into the Flying Purple People Eater and pointed the laser gun at us! But I held up a mirror—Sartorius took one look at his face and screamed like a little girl! Then he went crrk and he shed his Flying Purple People Eater skin! And they all lived happily ever after, 'cept for Aster, who got vaporized."

"Um…excuse me?" Aster suddenly appeared in the doorway. "Hello, Earth to genius, I'm right here!"

"ASTER!" Jaden screamed. "IT'S A GHOST! EVERYBODY, RUN! HE'S BACK FOR UNDEAD REVENGE!"

Everyone in the room sweatdropped.

"Um, Jaden, mate, you know Aster never died, right?" Jim grinned uncertainly. "You're just messing with us, aren't ya?"

"Yeah, course!" Jaden beamed.

"He actually told it pretty accurately," Syrus stated. "Except there weren't laser guns or mirrors; there were duels. And there wasn't a Flying Purple People Eater. Or a mirror. Or chains. Plus, the alien King of the Planet Ojina? Yeah, he was a prince from Earth (Misgarth, to be exact) named Ojin. And Alexis was never Queen of the Ice People and Chazz was never her King, as much as he probably wishes he was. And Bastion didn't join the League of Super-Smart People; he left to work with Dr. Eisenstein."

"Which is pretty much the same thing," Jaden pointed out.

That's it for this chapter. I just HAD to write! But this is why Lex and Sarge aren't going:

1. I don't like Alexis

2. I needed people to not go

3. I just had brilliant plans for Chazz and Atti…don't worry, they aren't evil

YOU CAN STILL VOTE FOR AXEL!! IM NOT QUITE SURE WHAT TO DO WITH HIM!!!!!!! But if no one votes, I'll just send him with the others.
