Sora: "Sorry for the lateness. The computer data was lost, So I had to rewrite this chapter"
Misaki: "And she's still crying about it."
Sora: "Am not!"
Jaden: (Enter) "Sora, I know that you're still crying because the computer erased your hard work, But I was wondering-"
Sora: "Wah!" (Cries)
Jaden: (Clueless) "Did I say something?"
Sora: "I'm going to my room!" (Leaves)
Kisa: (Enters) "Sorry about that. We own nothing, except Sora owns this story."
Jaden: "On with the story!" (Winged Kuriboh smiles and waves at everyone)

Chapter 7: The West Wing
A few minutes later Jaden was walking to Misaki's room. He was in front of it and he was mumbling to himself.
"Come on, Jaden." He said. "And whatever you do, Don't lose your temper if she says 'No'"
He knocked on the door and there was no respond. He knocked again and there was still no respond. He just sighed sadly and left.
"I guess I shouldn't have been hard on her…" He said to himself.
Squidward walked behind Spongebob and Patrick. Pluto and Scooby-doo (Scooby-doo) were behind Spongebob and Patrick.
When they passed a hall full of armor, Misaki, Sora, and their friends were gone unnoticed.
"Now if-" Squidward said as he turned around to face them but didn't see them
"Um-Mademoiselle?" He asked as he looked around the hall.
"Guys, They're gone!" Squidward said to everyone.
"They must be in the West Wing" Patrick said as he looked at them. "Oh okay.." Squidward said
5...4...3...2..1..
"THE WEST WING?!" They all said as their eyes widened. Then they ran after them.
Misaki, Sora and their friends saw some dark stair case.
Jaden was about to enter the West wing when suddenly he saw Misaki and everyone else.
'Oh no! Their about to enter the west wing! They're not suppose to be there!' Jaden thought as he hid. He then left to get in the West wing another way.
"Guys.. I don't like it here.." Sora told them.
'I have a bad feeling here' She thought. Too bad for her they didn't pay attention to her. They almost went up the stair but Sora, Spongebob, and Patrick blocked their way.
"I'm serious Misaki. I don't like this" Sora said to Misaki in a serious tone.
"I just want to know what's up there" Misaki said
"Uh-nothing" Patrick said "Absolutely nothing of interest at all in the West Wing. Dusty, dull, boring"
'Patrick! Way to go Einstein' Sora thought sarcastically.
"Ah, so that's the West wing" Alexis said as everyone smiled.
"Nice going, Patrick.." Squidward said sarcastically and Patrick smiled stupidly.
Misaki and her friends kept on looking up the stairs.
"I wonder what he's hiding up there…" Ichigo asked.
"H-Hiding?" Squidward said nervously
"Uh- the master's not hiding anything" Spongebob said. Misaki and her friends then took some steps up.
"Then it wouldn't be forbidden" Ishida said as they were walking up but were stopped when Sora and the others blocked them again.
"Maybe you would like to see something else?" Spongebob asked but then they took another step
"Maybe later" Misaki said and was blocked again.
"The gardens or the Library?" Spongebob asked and Misaki froze. She then gave them a surprised look.
"You have a library?" She asked and the others gave her a look.
"Yes! Indeed! With books!" Patrick said and the others started to smile.
"So much book that you'll never be able to read in your whole life!" Spongebob said as he, Patrick and Squidward were walking off. Scooby-doo and Pluto were behind them. Misaki was following them but then stropped in her tracks. She did want to check out the library, but she was so curious about the west wing.
As Misaki and her friends went up the stairs and Sora watched as Spongebob, and Patrick left. She slapped her forehead and her hand covered one of her eye. The other watched as they were leaving.
"This prince needs to find better servants" Sora said and then decided to go with Misaki and the rest.
"Decided to come?" Ichigo asked her.
"I have to watch over Misaki. She's still upset about what happened." Sora said as she ran next to Misaki.
"Sure…" Ichigo smirked.
When they got up there they saw a long and dark corridor. "Um.. Ladies first.." Max said and everyone just couldn't help but smile a bit. They walked and saw broken statues and mirrors.
"He sure knows how to scare someone to death" Sora said as she looked around. When they reached the end of the corridor they saw a huge door. The door knob was shaped like a persons face, like it was glaring at you.
Misaki reached to it but then backed up a bit, she was reconsidering about this. Jesse then took in a deep breath and opened the door. Everyone got inside and everyone was shocked at what they saw, It was a total mess! They walked around and felt a little creped out.
Rukia almost tripped on a small table, but Ichigo caught the table in time, and Rukia was able to keep her balance.
They saw a bed completely destroyed, then they turned around and were shocked of what they saw. They saw a portrait that had been clawed on.
"Wonder who that is?" Misaki wondered. Misaki then put a piece of the portrait back were it belonged, Syrus, Blair, Jesse, and Alexis gasped.
They saw a young boy (Around his 14) with brown messy hair, chocolate brown eyes, and creamy skin was seen. He had a black tux, and black dressing shoes. He was actually smiling and in his hand he showed a Winged Kuriboh. In the background were the Elemental Heros and the Neo-Spacians.
"It really was Jaden!" Alxis said in surprise.
"What do you mean?" Syrus asked her.
"Jaden has turned dark again." Jesse said as Syrus and Blair looked at him surprised.
"It's hard to believe that used to be him" May said and everyone agreed.
"Hey guys! Look." Sora said as she pointed to a rose that was in a small table. It was a blue rose that was floating and glowing blue.
"It's cool!" Dawn said as she was about to reach for the rose but Syrus stopped him.
"If anyone's gonna pick up that rose, it's me" He said and Dawn looked disappointed.
"Are you sure you should do that?" Rukia asked
"Maybe we shouldn't" Ash said.
"Yeah, It belongs to that duelist" Orihime said.
"Look, maybe that rose has a connection with Jaden. We have to give it to the professor. He, Tails and Tech will examine it." Syrus said as he took off the glass that was covering the rose. He was about to get it, but then May let out a gasp. They looked at the direction she was looking at and saw Jaden. Syrus then stopped and looked at him, examining him.
'Brother?' He thought and saw that his eyes were narrowed. Jaden then walks over and puts the jar back on the rose and glared at Misaki.
"Why did you come here?" He asked angrily.
"We.. We're so sorry.." Misaki said nervously as they backed up.
"I warned you never to come here!" He said angrily.
"But we didn't mean any harm." Misaki said as Sora got in front of her, but even she was getting a little scared.
"Do you realize what you could have done?" He said as he knocked over a table on purpose, it was so lucky that it didn't hit anyone. Misaki, Sora and the others started to back up, but Misaki backed up into a old wardrobe.
"Please stop.." Misaki said but he didn't listen to her.
"GET OUT!" He yelled and everyone made a run for it.
"Gladly! And you're never gonna see us again!" Sora said as they ran.
"No wait.." Jaden said as his voice became less aggressive and more full of grief. He then sat down on a chair and put his hand over his face, Then he began to sing.
Jaden: "And in my twisted face…
There's not the slightest trace
Of anything that even hints of kindness
And in my tortured shape
No comfort, no escape
(got up from the chair)
I see, but deep within is utter blindness
Hopeless
As my dream dies
As the time flies
Love's a illusion
Hopeless
Unforgiven
Cold and driven
To this sad conclusion
(He looks at himself with the mirror from before)
No beauty could move me
No goodness improves me
No power on earth, If I can't love her
No passion could reach me
No lesson could teach me
How I could have loved her and make her love me too
If I can't love her, then who?
(He walked to the portrait that Misaki and her friends have seen earlier. He just looked at it and continued to sing.)
Long ago, I should have seen
All the things I could have been
Careless and unthinking I moved onward
(He then walked over to his balcony)
No pain could be deeper
No life could be cheaper
No point anymore if I can't love her
No spirit could win me
No hope lest within me
Hope that she'd set me free
But it's not to be
If I can't love her
Let the world be done with me!"
He then got back inside, very sad.
Meanwhile, Misaki, Sora, and their friends were running. They came down the stairs, into the foyer and passed Spongebob, Sandy, Patrick, Pluto, Scooby-doo, Kisa, and Shippo.
"Were are you going?" Squidward asked.
"Promise or no promise, we can't stay here another minute!" Misaki said as she opened the door and snow blew in.
"You said it!" Misty said as everyone put on a jacket.
"No! Please wait!" Squidward begged.
"Misaki! Sora!" Kisa yelled after them but it was too late, they slammed the door closed. Spongebob, Patrick, Pluto, Scooby-doo, Shippo, and Kisa looked sadly at one another.
Misaki was with Sora and the others were on motorcycles. They were instantly relieved when they left, but Ichigo and Rukia senced something.
Misaki, Sora, and their friends later found themselves looking at some wolves. The wolves followed them when they made a run for it, and caught up with them when Sora lost control of Ricky accidentally dropped them, luckily They weren't hurt at all.
Misaki got up but was in trouble. She was surrounded by wolves. Her hair was let loose because of how she fell.
Ichigo, Rukia, Ash, May, Misty, and Brock were fighting with some wolves, but they were soon getting out numbered.
"Their too many!" Orihime said. She had dropped her hair pins when she was running away from the West Wing.
Misaki was swinging a branch that she had picked up and trying to keep the wolves away. Unfortunately when she was backing up she tripped.
"Misaki!" Everyone yelled. Misaki let out a scream as the wolves lunged for her.
"Misaki!" Sora yelled, she was on her way but she knew that she wouldn't make it in time.
Out of nowhere Jaden appeared and saved Misaki. He caught a wolf that was about to bite her and threw it away. Sora froze dead in her tracks, she was surprised. He got out his deck and held up a card.
"I summon Aqua Dolphin!" he said and all of a sudden Aqua Dolphin showed up in front of him. "Attack!" He said and the Aqua Dolphin did what he was told. One of the wolves was tossed aside.
"Well, if he can do that then.." Jesse said and he looked at Alexis. They both nodded at each other and got out one of their cards.
"I summon Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus!" Jesse said and then it appeared.
"I summon Blade Skater!" Alexis said and the duel monster showed up.
"Watch out!" Sora said and Jaden was about to turn around, but a wolf sunk its teeth in his arm.
"Jaden!" Syrus, Blair, Alexis, and Jesse yelled at the same time. Aqua Dolphin then attacked the wolf that was on his arm. The others just watched, Everyone except Jesse, Alexis, Ichigo, Rukia, Ash, May, Brock, Ash, May, Misty.
Pikachu was about to get hit, when all of a sudden Sora got him out of the way in time.
"Pi-Pikachu" The pokemon said. "You're welcome" She said but then Pikachu saw that she had gotten scratched in the progress.
"Oh, don't worry, I'm alright. Just go and help the others." She said as she let go of him.
"Pikachu" Was his reply and he left to go get Ash.
The wolves retreated and almost nobody got hurt.
"That was awesome, right Aniki?" Syrus said and didn't get a respond. "Brother?" He asked again and still didn't get a respond. He turned around and saw that he was on the ground. He was bleeding really badly. Sora ran next to Misaki, she had her hand on her wound. When they saw that she too was bleeding everyone started to worry.
"Jaden? Are you alright?" Blair asked. He didn't answer and looked at Misaki sadly. She then felt like she had to stay to help him. She couldn't leave him or her bleeding sister here.
--
Sora was running away from Rukia and Orihime, who were trying to help her wounds. Orihime couldn't find her hair pins any were. "Please Sora, Hold still." Orihime said as Rukia tried to get a hold of her but Sora managed to get away.
"No way! I can put the bandages on my own!" Sora said as she kept on dodging them.
"But you have to wash away the blood in your arm. Just stop being so hasty!" Rukia said.
"No!" Sora said again but accidentally bumped into someone.
"Sorry" She said to Jesse.
"Ya know, you should take care of that wound" He said as he smiled to her. She couldn't help but smile back.
"There you are!" Rukia said as she forced Sora to sit down.
"But this is gonna hurt!" She said as Orihime came with a bucket of water.
"Here" Jesse said as he offered his hand. "If it hurts just hang on to me" He said and she nodded. Orihime got a cloth and started to wash the blood off. Sora then started to squeeze his hand. After a few minutes, Rukia put the bandages and said. "All done"
"Thank you so much Jesse" Sora said.
"You're welcome. But one thing." He said.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"Can I have my hand back?" he asked and she saw that she was still holding his hand. She immediately let go of his hand and blushed.
"Sorry" she said and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Sora?" Ash said as she turned around. "Thank you, for saving Pikachu" He said and Pikachu gave her a thankful look.
"Your welcome." She said and patted Pikachu on the head.
Jaden was still sitting down and was about to leave, but Ichigo and Ayumu made him sit again. "Hey!" he said and the two boys backed up. Kisa and Sandy entered with a bowl of hot water. Misaki took the towel out of the water and ringed it. She looked up at Jaden, who was still mad at Ichigo and Ayumu
"Here now" she said and noticed that he was rubbing his wound "Oh, don't do that"
Jaden couldn't help but let out a little growl. Ichigo, Rukia, Orihime, Ishida, Ace, Lexi, Rev, Tech, Slam, Ash, May, Brock, Misty, Dawn, Pikachu, Max, Goku, Jesse, Alexis, Blair, Syrus, Sqiudward, Spongebob, Patrick, Sandy, Shippo, and a Bandaged Sora backed up.
Jaden tried to keep Misaki away from his wound, as she tried to reach his wound with the wet towel. "Just hold still" she said softly and put the towel on his wound. "Ouch!" he yelled in pain. Ichigo, Rukia, Orihime, Ishida, Ash, May, Brock, Misty, Dawn, Pikachu, Max, Goku, Jesse, Alexis, Blair, Syrus, Kisa, Sqiudward, Spongebob, Patrick, Sandy, and Shippo hid when he screamed in pain.
"That hurts!" He yelled angrily at her.
"If you'd hold still, it wouldn't hurt as much!" She yelled back at him.
"Well, If you hadn't have run away, This wouldn't have happened!" He said angrily.
"If you hadn't frightened us, we wouldn't have run away!" She said and crossed her arms.
Jaden opened his mouth to say something angrily in respond, but then he stopped to think of what he was about to say.
"Well, you shouldn't have been in the West Wing!" He said angrily
"Well, you should learn to control your temper!" She said as she faced him.
Ichigo and the other came out of their hiding spot.
"Now hold still" Misaki said "This may sting a little" Sora couldn't help but smirk to that saying. Jaden turned his head away and closed his eyes.
"By the way, thank you for saving my sisters life." Sora said as he turned and faced her.
"I owe you one" she said as she bowed.
"I should be the one thanking you.." Misaki said and he faced her.
The others watched and smiled at them.
"Your welcome" He responded and She smiled at him.
Jaden and Misaki smiled and looked at each other in the eyes.

Sora: "Sorry if it's a little boring."
Misaki: "I though you were in your room crying"
Sora: "I got over it. So, Jaden what did you want to ask me?"
Jaden: "I was gonna ask you when were you gonna update the other chapter, but You already did that."
Kisa: "R&R people."
Sora: (Scary music come in) "Or I'll make your life so miserable and hated that nobody would want to get near ya! Muahaha!" (Lightning affects are added. Misaki turns off CD player)
Misaki: "She just playing around."
Sora: "Aw! Misaki! Why did you ruin my fun?"
Jaden: "You could play with Winged Kuriboh"
Sora: (Smiles) "Yay!" (Hugs winged Kuriboh)
All of them: "Ja-ne!" (Kuriboh waves at everyone)
