Hello once again to all! Yes I am back after a long break. I hope that this chapter lives up to what you guys were hoping for. If this chapter seems kind of...empty, that's because I really didn't know what to do with it. It's kind of a filler chapter, which is what most of the upcoming chapters will be until I get to introduce my characters. After that, things will hopefully go a lot quicker and easier for me. Now there is a hinting to a new couple in here, that to me is fairly obvious, but lets see who can guess it correctly. Hm? Oh and please ignore any mistakes you may find, I wanted to get this out as soon as possible. THANKS!

The students were all gathered around the door to the classroom, just like it was a normal day. But it wasn't just a normal day. For several of our students it was the first day of a new beginning...one of which...was not Jaden.
'Damn you Chazz!' He thought quite loudly to himself as he entered the building, Syrus and Chumley close behind. Jaden had been in a bad mood when the they had arrived back at the room, so they had left him alone, even though they were very curious as to what had happened to their friend and roommate. When they all had awoken, Jaden had still been in a bad mood. He was still in a bad mood at the current time, and Syrus and Chumley tried to keep their distance.
Apparently they weren't the only ones. As Jaden stormed through the hallway the other students quickly scrambled out of the way to let him pass.
As the door to their class came into sight, Jaden also saw the object and creator of his hatred coming from the other direction, flanked by James and Marc. Chazz had his usual 'get-away-from-me-or-I'll-kill-you' look on his face. But when he saw Jaden, a sly grin appeared in it's place.
He and his 'cronies' stopped on their side of the door, while Jaden suddenly stopped on his side, Syrus and Chumley almost running into him.
Jaden was glaring at Chazz with so much hatred you'd think he could melt metal. But Chazz either didn't notice or didn't care. Syrus and Chumley kept looking from one boy to the other in complete confusion. They figured that this glare-fest had something to do with what had happened after they had left the two alone the other day. And they started to wonder what Chazz had done to make Jaden so angry.
The other students were just as confused as Jaden's buddies. But they were also scared, as well as interested, in what might happen between the two. So most of the students stayed to watch what would happen. Others, those with enough common sense to know better, either ran into the classroom, or stood right outside the door, so that if something did happen they were able to get away. A couple of the students looked as if they were gonna run and get a teacher, but looks from the other students stopped them.
No one dared to break the tension that had settled over the crowd. Jaden and Chazz wouldn't stop staring at each other. James, Marc, Syrus and Chumley just stood there, and the other students just waited and watched.
The whole scene seemed to be put on pause. No one moved, no one blinked, some didn't even breathe, too scared that they would shatter the stillness that had settled over the hallway. But eventually someone had to break the glass, and that someone...was Chazz.
"Well, well, well," he started. "If it isn't little ol' Jaden. So, what brings you here today Jaden?"
"Class, Chazz, I thought even you know that," Jaden said, never lifting his glare.
Chazz chuckled. "I meant...what brings you here," he took a step closer to Jaden, "after what happened," step, "last night?" He took two more steps and was directly in front of the Slifer.
Syrus then had his full attention on Chazz. 'Last night? So it was Chazz that made Jaden so angry. But...what exactly happened?'
"I thought," Chazz continued, completely unaware of the people around them (him and Jaden), "that you would be too scared to ever come back."
"Is that what you were trying to accomplish, Chazz?" Jaden asked. "Were you trying to scare me off?"
Chazz chuckled again. "No, not exactly."
"So then what were you trying to do?" Jaden was on his guard. What did Chazz want with him?
Chazz leaned closer to Jaden's ear and whispered, so that only Jaden could hear, "I was trying to have some fun. Teasing you like that was very amusing. Besides you looked so cute, so...vulnerable. I just wanted to fuck you so har-"Chazz fell into a pile on the floor five feet from Jaden, who had finally come out of his stupor long enough to realize what Chazz had said, before punching him in the face. Jaden's face was as a tomato.
"You jerk!" He yelled as Chazz started to get up with the help of Marc and James. "How can you lie, so easily, about something so serious?"
"What if I'm telling the truth?" Chazz asked smugly.
"Don't lie, Chazz, I know it's not true."
"How do you know it's not?"
"Because I know you!"
"You don't know me!" Chazz said, fuming.
"Course I do," Jaden said, turning away and crossing his arms over his chest, trying to keep a level head. "You're a selfish, arrogant, stuck-up, son of a bit-"
"Why you little..." That's when both of their tempers flared. Soon a fist-fight broke out between the two and none of the other students seemed too keen on breaking it up; not even Syrus, Chumley, Marc, or James, those four know better.

Zane and Bastion entered the school to find it practically deserted.
"Where is everyone?" Bastion asked.
"Bastion! Zane!" They turned to see Alexis and Atticus coming up the hall.
"Hey guys!" Zane greeted them. "What's up?"
"Nothing really, but do you know where everyone is?" Alexis asked.
"Not a clue, we just got here. We had actually been wondering the same thing though," Bastion said.
"It's like a ghost town," said Atticus. He looked between the Ra and the Obelisk, and realized something for the first time. "So," he said, a sly grin appearing on his face, "is there something going on here that we should know about?"
"Huh?" Bastion asked, before realizing that he was holding Zane's hand. He quickly let the Obelisk's hand fall, while blushing profusely. "N-No, th-there's nothing, I-I assure you."
"Awwww, you two are so cute together!" Alexis said.
"Alexis, we are not together," Bastion said, this time not stuttering.
"Come on, Bastion, there's nothing to be ashamed about," Alexis tried to reassure the Ra, but only accomplished making him blush more.
While those two were arguing, Zane pulled Atticus away from them to talk.
"So, is there something?" Atticus asked again, this time in a whisper.
"Yeah, there's something." Zane answered not looking as enthusiastic as Atticus though he would be.
"Wait, I though this was a good thing?" he asked.
Zane sighed. "It is...but..."
"Oh no, the dreaded but," Atticus said, rolling his eyes.
"Bastion...he...I don't think he has a lot of confidence in himself."
"What? But, he's the smartest student here. How could he not have confidence in himself?" Atticus asked looking over at his sister and Bastion.
"I don't know," Zane said also looking over at the two. "He just...he seems so insecure. I mean...I gave him a little nickname, and when I call him that he just seems a little too embarrassed. It seems as if he doesn't think he's, I don't know...good enough for me."
"Are you serious?" Atticus asked, looking back at Zane in disbelief.
"Yeah, you just witnessed a perfect example. I know he likes me, but he seems unsure whether I really like him or not. Even though I gave a full confession last night."
Atticus looked sympathetically at his distraught friend. "Well, did you show him your scars?" He asked trying to help.
"Yeah, and told him the whole damn story along with it. Just do me a favor will ya?" Zane asked, not taking his eyes off the Ra.
"Yeah sure, Zane, anything to help," Atticus said.
"Just don't mention anything about our relationship around him, or to anyone else, until it's stable. Alright?"
"Alright, but..."
"But what?" Zane asked finally looking at him.
"You're talking about it as if it were some sort of medical condition," Atticus said smiling.
Zane chuckled, and gave the other Obelisk a playful punch to the arm. "Shut up"
"Glad to see your moods up."
"Thanks Atticus, you're a real pal."
Hey, no prob, just tell your brother I-"
"Hey Zane!" They both turned to see the other two coming towards them, obviously done arguing. "Can we go to class now?" Bastion asked.
"Sure, we don't want to be late. Come on guys." And they all headed down the deserted hallway to their class.

When they reached the classroom, most of the crowd had transferred inside, but a few remained. They turned the corner and came face to face with a fighting Chazz and Jaden. Syrus, Chumley, James, and Marc were standing along the wall watching the fight, all looking slightly annoyed.
"Hey guys, what's up?" Atticus asked as they approached the four.
"Oh you know, same old, same old." Syrus said in a bored tone. "Chazz provoked Jaden, Jaden responded with an insult, and you see the outcome." He indicated over to the two fighting.
"How did Chazz provoke Jaden this time?" Bastion asked.
"Something about what happened yesterday." Chumley answered. "Do you guys know what happened?" He asked Zane and Bastion.
Bastion blushed as he remembered what they had been doing at the time, but Zane answered for him, "No, we left before anything happened."
Syrus and Chumley seemed to mull over this before Syrus realized something. "Hey, Atticus, where were you yesterday?"
Atticus grinned slyly, "Why? Worried about me, were you?"
"No," Syrus blushed slightly. "Just curious."
"Curious about-"
"BOYS!" Everyone, including Chazz and Jaden who had stopped fighting, turned to see an infuriated Dr.Crowler standing there looking ready to kill. "What is the meaning of this!"
They all looked at each other but didn't say a word.
"Well?" Dr.Crowler asked. "Nothing to say, eh?" Jaden, Chazz report to my office tomorrow at five o'clock for detention!" With that he stormed off, yelling over his shoulder, "Now everyone get to class!"
They all then scurried into the classroom, not wanting to get into any more trouble.
