Chapter 4. Schooling the Teacher

Were Back

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The next morning after the flatulent contest Jaden, Syrius and Hasslebarry went to return the stolen cards to Shepherd.

"Why have you come to see me?" asked Shepherd

"We are hear to return the stolen cards," said Hasslebarry

"So you're admitting that you stole them?"

"No, we managed to recover the cards from the guy that stole them"

"How?"

"He just gave them to us"

"How strange"

"I beat him in a duel then he turned into black smoke and then a voice said that the world will end in 20 days" said Jaden

"I don't know if that is true but be on the look out for any thing strange."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Later that night after dinner Syrius went for a little walk in the woods because he got a note telling him to be there at 8:00.

"OK, Hasslebarry come on out" called Syrius.

Nothing made a sound and until there was a movement in the bushes. Was it Hasslebarry? No it was a phantasm marrow token. "Nice monster" whimpered Syrius "You look like one of those monsters Jaden dealt with when he took on the sacred breast. Sacred Beast!" He yelled as he ran off. The monster chased after him. Syrius Yelled for help. Jaden hired it and ran to him. "Syrius what's wrong?" "Monster back there" "What" all of a sudden Jaden's Deck began to glow and out popped Elemental Hero Nercoshade.

"Nercoshade?" said Jaden

"Yes Jaden but I have come for a reason me and the rest of the Elemental Hero's since a new evil has arrived and I since one of them is hear.

"Well dose it have any thing to do with the Shadow Monster we met?" asked Jaden

"Quite so" said Nercoshade "and it also has to do with that monster your friend met not too long ago. We have 19 days to get ready."

"Why 19 days"

"Because you know that ring of fire balls in the ski, it started with 20 and each day one fire ball will come down."

"You mean like the Final Countdown spell card"

"Exactly"

"But one question, where did the first fire ball go?"

"Don't know"

Over at the Slifer Dorm…

The fireball was going strait for the outhouse and made an explosion. Chazz went to investigate. Hasslebarry walked out of the clearing smoke. "Hasslebarry how were you able to survive that blast? You were directly in the blast."

"Well Chazz, it was something I learned from my farther in the army: If there's a large explosion and your in the bathroom, you do this, finish your business and take a dive"

"Get…Away…From Me!" said Chazz

"Yeah boss, you tell him," said the Ojama Yellow

"Beet it lemon stain"

Back in the forest…

"Well I guess we will never know where the fireball went," said Syrius scratching his head.

"By the way Jaden, that monster that you friend ran into was a phantasm marrow beast," said Necroshade

"Phantasm marrow?" said Jaden wondering "That is one the monsters that was in my duel agents the Sacred Beast."

"That is correct Jaden," said Necroshade shaking his head "Now Jaden I must go but expect Neos to speak with you tomorrow"

"Got it, Necroshade," said Jaden

"Say Jaden" asked Syrius "Who are you talking too"

"I'll tell you later," said Jaden "But right now I think I smell burnt out-house. Buy the way Si, what were you doing out hear?"

"I received this note," said Syrius handing the note to Jaden"

"Lets see it says: Syrius meet me out in the forest at 8:00, there is a few things that I need you for. P.S. Come alone" What could this mean? What time is it?"

"Its 8:06"

"Let me hang on to this, Ok"

"Ok"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It was the vary next day; there was a meeting in one of the classrooms. Shepard had to make an announcement. "Now everyone knows that Professor Banner is gone, so I hired someone to replace him." Said Shepard "Now everyone I would like you to meet Professor Victor Leen. Now play nicely, I have a meeting to go to"

"He looks like Mr. Clean," Jaden whispered to Syrius and Hasslebarry

"Who said that!" yelled Victor "I bet it was you! You in the red jacket with the brown hair, step up hear."

"Yes sir" said Jaden

"What's your name?"

"Jaden Yuki"

"You think I look funny do you. Just because I'm bald. Well your hair looks like a brown mushroom!" He yelled "Now go back to your seat, so I can get class started"

"I could't look striate at you," said Jaden as he walked back to his seat"

"And why is that!" yelled Victor

"I was blinded by an incredible shine," said Jaden. The whole class started to laugh.

"Well if it's going to be like that…"said Victor "…Well, You're so ugly the mirror breaks when you look into it" The class booed him

"But the mirror was on you. Oh I'm sorry it was your head." Said Jaden. "OH, that was a diss" said Chazz

"You must have forgot your brain … back at the dollar store!" yelled Victor

"Maybe, but that's the same place you forgot your Rogaine" said Jaden. Alexis looked at Jaden and smiled. That's why I love you Jaden your since of humer. She thought

"That's it young man, see me after class for detention!" yelled Victor

1 hour later the bell rung. Alexis waited buy the door for Jaden. "Jaden, that was brave of you sticking up to Professor Leen today" she said "I was wondering could I stay with you for your detention?" "Sorry Lex" said Jaden "He just wants me"

"Jaden, your detention starts now," said Victor

"I'm coming," said Jaden, who was heading for his seat, when Victor stopped him.

"Come down hear Jaden," he said. "Lessen, I needed you to stay after for two reasons, you know the first one, and the seconded one is this, so catch." He threw Jaden a duel disk" "A duel?" "Yes Jaden, a duel." "Why?" "Its your detention. And because you're in red I'll cream you in a duel."

"You got your self a duel," said Jaden "So get your game on"

'Don't tell me what to do." Said Victor "I will start by summoning Jinzo #7 in attack mode and next I'll play polymerization to fuse Spirit Reaper with Nightmare Horse to form Reaper on the Nightmare. Then I'll set two cards face down and end my turn"

"Good, my turn. I play Elemental Hero Sparkman in attack mode. Then I'll equip him with the spell card, Spark Blaster. Now I know about your Reaper's effect, and usually spark blaster is used for a defense, but in this case I'm using it for offense because when Reaper on the Nightmare is targeted by a effect he is destroyed on the dot." Said Jaden pointing out the facts. "Now Sparkman use blaster and destroy his Reaper" Sparkman held up the blaster and fired. Reaper on the Nightmare was destroyed.

"Is that the best you can do?" said Victor ""Lets see what else you got"

"Ok, if you insist." said Jaden "Sparkman attack Jinzo #7"

"I play my face down, Gravity Bind." Said Victor "Didn't expect that did you?"

"Fine, I'll set one card face down and end my turn"

"I'll go now, I sacrifice Jinzo #7 to summon Ryu Kokie" said Victor with a sinister grin. "You can't attack with that monster!" yelled Jaden "Gravity Bind effects you too" "Jaden, I play my other face down, Royal Decree now all trap cards are useless" Victor said "Now Ryu Kokie attack Sparkman with Blazing Scull attack."

Score:

Victor: 4000

Jaden: 3200

"Then I'll set one card face down and end"

"Well I'm off to a bad start," said Jaden "But I will win, but first, my turn. I play the most popular card in the game, Pot of Greed this lets me draw two cards. If only I had a quarter for every time I heard or said that. Anyway I summon Elemental Hero Bubbleman in attack mode. And because he is out alone, I draw two cards. Next I play my face down, fake hero to summon another monster. So meet Elemental Hero Clayman." "Not bad for a Slifer" said Victor "But try playing something that can stop Ryu Kokie" "Ok, I equip Clayman with the card Clayrap and now I use polymerization to Clayman with Bubbleman to form Elemental Hero Mudballman in defense made. And because Clayrap went to the graveyard I get to destroy one spell or trap card, so good-bye Royal Decree. I set two cards face down and end my turn."

"Is that the best you can do? First I will play my face down Emergency Previsions so I give up gravity bind to gain 1000 points and now Ryu Kokie can attack Mudballman. And even if Mudballman has a higher defense He is destroyed because of Ryu Kokie's effect."

"Unless I play my face down Diffusion," said Jaden Quickly reacting "Now they split back into Clayman and Bubbleman. Fine I'll attack Clayman and end my turn with a face down"

Score:

Victor 5000

Jaden: 3200

I need to find a way to bring down that over-grown pile of sculls. Wait I got it. "I draw, I play Fusion Sage, this lets me get a polymerization from my deck. Now lets play it. I fuse Elementals Heroes Necroshade with Wiledhart to summon Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman. When He is summoned I get to destroy one of your monsters and replace it with a weaker one from your graveyard. So good buy Ryu Kokie and hello Nightmare Horse. Next I equip Bubbleman with Bubble Blaster. Now he gains 800 points. Now Bubbleman attack Nightmare Horse."

"You will have to better then that kid!" yelled Victor

"Ok, Necroid Shaman attack. I summon wrottweiler and end my turn"

Score:

Victor: 2000

Jaden: 3200

"My turn. I'll play my face down Call of the Haunted to bring back Ryu Kokie, but only so I can sackerfice him to summon my favorite and first monster I ever got. Behold My SACRED PHOENIX OF NEPTHTHYS!" Laughed Victor "And I'll play Double attack. So I discard Andro Sphinx so My Phoenix can attack twice. First I'll attack your Shaman. Go Phoenix Blaze. And now to bust your Bubbleman."

"When Bubbleman is attacked with Bubble Blaster equipped to him, it's his blaster that pops, not him" said Jaden

"But still I play the spell actoplasem I give up my Phoenix so half of his attack points come out of your life points. Then I'll will pay 800 points to play premature burial to bring back my Phoenix and end"

Score:

Victor: 1300

Jaden: 2700

"It's my turn and the last turn Victor"

"You dare to call me by my real name!"

"Yes I do," replied Jaden "Now because Necroshade is in the graveyard I can summon a Elemental Hero with out a sackerfice. So meet Elemental Hero Neos."

"So it is true, Neos dose exist," said Victor

"Yes and Now I play Cross Change. By sending a Elemental Hero back to my deck. I can summon a Neo-Spacehen of the same level or lower, so I summon Neo-Spacehen Grand Mole. And now for some contact fusion. When I merge Neos with Grand Mole, I call out Elemental Hero Grand Neos."

"Big deal even if he destroys my Phoenix I'll take only 100 points of damage"

"Wrong teach. Grand Neos gets to send one of your monsters back to your hand"

"What! No!" yelled Victor

"Yes." said Jaden with a smile "Now Grand Neos attack. Open wide, Victor"

Victor blew back-wards. "Jaden, I'm sorry said you hair looked like a brown mushroom. I had you…" He was cut off

"Victor, what is the meaning of this?" it was Sheppard standing in the doorway. "I thought we agreed not to duel the students unless they were being privately tested"

"Sorry, I dosed off during that part," said Victor nervously"

"Jaden, tell me what happened" said Sheppard

"It was his way of detention," said Jaden.

"Detention?" replied the chancellor "Jaden, you may go Victor I must speak with you"

"Thanks for the great match Professor" said Jaden as he ran off. "Say Sheppard, why did you hire this guy?" he whispered "He threatened little Sheppard" he replied holding up a teddy bare.

Jaden ran down the hallway and came to a stop. "Ok Neos, I'm ready" Neos appeared "Good Jaden, remember your duel with the shadow monster" "You mean Victor?"

"Not him, when the shadow monster stole the cards for auction, he preformed a forbidden ritual to summon a deadly fiend named Ragna. It takes 20 days and to summon him"

"Like the Final Countdown card. But why are the other cards needed?"

"One set is for his body and the other is for his power"

"Wow Neos, how do you know this?"

"You need something to do when your 15 cards away from being drawn" said Neos

"Oh, there must be a way to stop the ritual"
"There's not, and tonight and the rest of the remaining 18 nights a fire ball will fall from the ski. I assume Necroshade told you that"

"Yes," said Jaden grabbing his chin "Well then this is the 3rd night, which gives us 17 days to prepare for Ragna's arrival, so we must be ready."
