Strange Occurrences

"Weekend!" Drake yelled loudly in my ear to wake me up.

"Ah! I'm up! I'm up!" I yelled back at him, this had become a sort of weekly ritual, he would shout in my ear on Saturday, then I would yell back that I was awake.

"It's six in the morning, go back to sleep Drake." Shane groaned from the futon. He almost always slept in, even with Drake waking me up.

"Stop complaining, you get more sleep than I do on the weekends." I grumbled as I got out of bed. We were starting the second month of the school year this next week, and a lot of Obelisks tried to either beat me, Bella, Shane, or Jace up. Luckily, we either managed to run away, or Blood showed up to save our bacon.

I walked outside after getting dressed only to immediately get glomped by Opal. "Yay! You're up!" Oh yeah, I forgot about Opal's glomping habits, she seems to do it only to me (for reasons I can't understand) but still treats the others with respect, especially Bella. The two of them have become as thick as thieves, due to their mutual hatred of Catherine.

"Okay Opal, you can let go now." I said. I had a weird feeling, but I ignored it, I might regret it later, but today I was going to duel Jace.

"Alright." Opal said as she let go and let me stand up. "Today's the day you duel Jace, right?"

"That's right, but I wouldn't count on the duel lasting too long, Jace was one of the strongest Reds the school's ever seen. Now he's in Yellow, and they teach Yellows and Blues advanced duel techniques." Drake said as he popped out of the room.

"But he wasn't the best." A voice said from the shadows of the direction of the courtyard. A middle-aged man stepped out of the shadows, and I mean litterally appeared from the shadow of a tree. "I'm looking for some kids, I heard that four of them would be here." The man said, he had a bowl cut, but it looked as if he had bleached the center of his brown hair, because in the center area of his hair, it was orange. He had heterochromia it seemed, as he got closer I noticed one of his eyes were green, and the other was orange. All of a sudden, he got this excited look in his eyes. "It's great to meet the next generation, man, when Sy hears about you guys, he's gonna freak!"

"Wait a second..." I suddenly recognized the man in front of us. "Jaden Yuki?!"

"The one and only." He said, his face became serious once again though. "We'll talk, but I need you guys to come with me." He said.

"So the day's finally come; huh?" Aster said from behind us.

"Yeah, I really owe you for doing this for me Aster, it means the world." Jaden replied.

"Wait, why are you talking like this is some kind of conspiracy?" Opal asked.

"We'll answer your questions after we gather the rest of the nine." Aster said.

"The Nine?" Drake asked.

"Drake, I need you to wake Shane, Luna, and Bella, then meet us in the chancellor's office." Aster said. He turned to face Jaden, "I assume you've already contacted Bastion and Alexis?" He asked, Jaden nodded. "Good, then let's go meet them."

"He never used to be punctual, but this is ridiculous!" The chancellor said, he was a middle-aged man in a black jacket with spiky black hair.

"Well, you never were known for your patience, Chazz." A middle aged women with dirty blonde hair reaching her shoulders said.

"I agree with both of you, Chazz was never one to be patient, and Jaden always is, and was, late." Another middle aged man said, he had black hair as well, but it was combed in a particular fashion.

"Yeah, or maybe I've been at the door the whole time while listening to you guys bicker." Jaden said from the doorway.

"Sure you were Slacker, and I'm a princess." Chazz replied with a grin.

"Well then we'd better make a royal entrance for you, your highness." Jaden shot back. "Good to see you again Chazz."

"It's good to see you here within an hour of the agreed time." Chazz said again as he came up and shook Jaden's hand.

"Well what are we? Chopped Liver?" I asked after the two adults were finished.

"Not at all. Now I'll bet you're wondering why you're all here." In the room were me, Blood, Bella, Shane, Catherine, Jace, Benji, a kid named Keith Davis who was also in Yellow, and another Blue named Marcus Kleiner. "There have been rumors of... dark figures... roaming the school-grounds." Professor Misawa told us. It seemed like he was trying to find the right term to describe the beings. "And recently, students have begun to disappear. Many of them have returned a week after their disappearance, but only one has had any memory of the attack, and all he could say was 'worms are no good, worms are no good' any time he was conscious."

"We've had strange things happen here before, but we're not able to handle the problems, due to us being teachers." Mrs. Rhodes told us.

"I'm not a teacher though, I live in the shadow realm." Jaden added. "So I'm going to be the one to brief you on this mission. Chazz and the others will need to leave, I need only Rick, Bella, Shane, Jace, Benji, Keith, Takeru, Catherine, and Marcus for this next part." He explained.

The others left the room. "Alright, what's this about." Blood asked Jaden.

"I didn't want to worry the others unneccisarily, but the things that are happening now, are even more dangerous than what I faced when I studied here." Jaden answered. "I am a conduit for the Gentle Darkness to this world, and as such, can communicate with it. The world is in deadly trouble, when I was in my second year, we traveled to the spirit world to save a friend of mine, this time, the spirit world is different. Not only is the world itself different, but the timeline of this spirit world is wrong. If we don't fix this spirit world, the entire Multiverse will collapse." Jaden finished.

"Uh-huh, and why should we believe you?" Blood asked without emotion.

"Because of this." A powerful energy wave blasted out from Jaden, and his eyes turned golden. Behind him, a half man half woman demon appeared.

"I am Yubel, the protector of the Supreme King, the world is in danger, and only you nine have the power to stop it." The demon said. "My soul has been bound to the soul of Jaden Yuki, who stands before you now, and he is the incarnation of the Supreme King."

"Alright, if you say so." Blood shrugged.

"Now, on to the details..." Jaden said

A/N: Hi everyone, sorry about the late update, I've been sick and had writer's block, and a bunch of other crap. I know they're late excuses, but I was throwing up really bad on sunday. We've got some plot thrown in now, and the reason why Aster is the Slifer's Dorm Head. I'm not accepting any more OC's, and you can (eventually) See which OC's I've already accepted for stories on my profile page. Hope you liked the chappie, and sorry about lack of action in this one.
