Meet Lexalicious

As it turns out, everything was not okay with Jaden. He couldn't see his cards anymore. Everyone, even Chazz, was worried about him.

"Okay… THAT FREAKIN' DOES IT!" I yelled, disturbing half the students in the Slifer Mess Hall. "If Aster Phoenix thinks he can just waltz in here and hurt Jaden's pride, reputation, and mental stability, than he's just got another thing coming."

"Look, I know you want revenge, but this won't help!" Bastion replied.

"I get it. You guys don't want me to go strangle Phoenix… " I sighed.

After lunch, which, surprisingly, Jaden missed, we all headed up to Chazz's room.

Finally, Bastion looked up. "I hate to dampen the cheery mood, but we've got a problem. This dorm. With Jaden out, they might tear it down."

"He's right guys; we're doomed… " Syrus agreed.

"Our headquarters? Gone?" Hassleberry asked sadly, hanging his head.

"Uh… Sorry to be the optimistic one here, but we're not done yet!" I exclaimed.

"Yeah! We may be one man down, but we're six men strong! Okay, four men and two lovely ladies. Alright! Three men, a lady, a pro, and Syrus! The point is, we've gotta fight!" Chazz said, standing.

Bastion agreed. "Here, here, Chazz!"

Alexis too. "I'm in!"

Syrus next. "I'll stand by and cheer!"

Then me. "Hey, this could be fun!"

Hassleberry then exclaimed, "How about a group 'Yee-haw?'"

"YEE-HAW!" we all cried.

"Crowler, if you try anything, you'll crash into a wall of brotherhood!" Hassleberry shouted.

"Yeah, brotherhood!" Sy agreed happily.

"Sisterhood, too!" both Lex and I shouted. We looked at each other and started laughing at once.

"Just like old times, huh Lex?"

"Yeah!"

"Well, all for one, right guys?" we asked in unison.

"And one for all," Bastion agreed.

"Does anyone else hear singing? Or is it just me?" Chazz suddenly asked.

We all rushed out to the docks where someone was singing. The lyrics were horrible, so I knew who it was at once.

"Hey sissies!" Atticus yelled, strumming his guitar.

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me… " I said, mortified.

"A-Atticus!?" Alexis shouted.

"No way… " Chazz said in disbelief.

"Nice song." Syrus looked down in astonishment.

"Hold on! Who's he callin' sissies?" Hassleberry demanded.

I exchanged a look with Alexis. "Well, us. We're his sisters… Yeah, he's our big bro… " I sighed. "Unfortunately."

"I knew that."

Atticus ran his boat ashore and greeted us.

"So, what brings you to this side of campus?" Alexis asked carefully.

"C'mon, you know! Crowler's plan, remember?" Atticus replied.

"Oh, that. Well, I'm out. But Lex can answer for herself."

"You're joking," she said simply.

"He sounds pretty serious to me!" someone retorted. We all looked over to see something emerging from the cliff. It was Crowler… with a boat strapped to his back.

"Chancellor Crowler?" Alexis asked.

I just looked abashed while he continued, "Nice day for snorkeling, isn't it? By the way, Alexis, have you come to your senses yet or not?" Alexis, appalled, let her jaw drop. Syrus looked at Chazz, confused, who turned to Hassleberry, who turned to Bastion, who shrugged.

"I don't know what they're talking about!"

"MY senses? I'm not the one in a wetsuit with a boat strapped to my back." I giggled at Alexis's comment while Atticus shrugged. Crowler almost fell off the cliff.

"Sis, can't you just give this idea a chance?" Atticus begged, not noticing Crowler struggling to keep his balance on the cliff. Eventually, the boat slid off his back, almost taking him with it. I tried even harder to stifle my laughter. "Please?"

Cautiously, Syrus stepped up and asked, "What idea?"

"I already told you guys, didn't I?" Alexis replied with a blush visible on her face. "Crowler wants Atticus and I to become a pop singing duo… "

"What's so bad about that?" Crowler demanded as he walked up behind Atticus, both of them smiling like idiots. "I get free publicity, you get a free dress," Chazz's eyes widened at this, "it's a win-win situation!"

Chazz went all googly-eyed at the thought of Lex in the ugly red dress. "A little help here?" she snapped.

"Yeah Chazz. You know she can't carry a tune!" Bastion exclaimed. I urked as he was slapped clean across the face by Alexis, landing face first into the dirt. Syrus and Hassleberry stared at him as if he had been bombed.

"You gotta know when to hold it, soldier… " Hassleberry advised.

Bastion looked up weakly and groaned, "I was trying to help… Girls… So complex."

Atticus then looked like a brilliant idea had just smacked him. "Wait! I know… " I didn't know where he got it from, but Atticus pulled out a cardboard cutout like the ones you'd see in music stores. "Meet Lexalicious, your glammed out alter-ego!" I urked again as I looked over the picture of Lex in a short red dress and long white scarf.

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me… " I sighed, scared of what he might do next. "Please, don't tell me that –!" Atticus nodded.

"You're next, Shi!" he exclaimed.

"Incase you've forgotten, I hit just as hard, if not harder, than Alexis when I don't like something or someone." My big bro flinched, as if remembering when I 'accidentally' broke his guitar when he still sucked at singing.

Alexis finally got her tongue back and yelled, "YOU JUST DON'T GET IT!"

"Fine, go cas," Atticus replied as the cardboard cutout's outfit changed. I raised my fist as if I was about to slug Atticus.

"Just give it up. I'm staying." Alexis's hands bunched into fists as she too looked like she wanted to give Atticus a hard knock on the head.

"Man, you're as stubborn as ever, sis!" Atticus shook his head while Crowler folded up the cutout of Lex. "C'mon Chazzy. Talk some sense into her!"

"ME?!" Chazz asked.

"Yeah! Tell her how we'd take the pop charts by storm!" He paused and then added, "And how we'd sell out arenas around the world!"

Chazz, now excited, ran up and asked, "And how I'd be your groupie?!"

Alexis yelled, "C'mon Chazz! Tell him we've got more important things to do! Tell him about our dorm! How we're all going to protect it!"

"I was getting there!" Chazz meekly defended himself.

"Come on Chazz, don't listen to her!" Atticus interrupted.

"Tell him Chazz!"

"Tell him!" "Tell her!" they both yelled.

Chazz lost it. "I can't take it! Don't make me chose between you! The pressure's just too much! WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?!" Hassleberry sighed and said something to Syrus who shook his head in agreement.

"You're not getting involved?" Bastion whispered.

"Not a chance. They can go for months at a time."

Bastion looked surprised. "I knew Alexis had a temper, but nothing like this!"

"Oh, this isn't half of it!" I laughed.

"How ever did it end?" Bastion asked.

"Hmm, well, either Lex beat the crap out of Atticus or Atticus annoyed her half to death with his really bad singing. But usually, it ends… "

"You and I have to duel, sis!" Atticus exclaimed.

I sighed. "Just like that."

"Oh."

The arena was soon packed, mostly with Atticus's female fans.

"Okay… ya know what? Right now, Atticus isn't any better than Phoenix. I'm gonna go to sleep. Wake me up when Lex wins… " I yawned.

Syrus asked, "How do you know Alexis is going to win?"

"It's happened before, Sy. Soooo many times before."

Dream/Flashback

I was walking into the arena of my first tournament. "Here we go, Dark Magician Girl. I hope you're up to it, because this could be our big break!" I walked onstage, the lights blinding my vision. I raised my Duel Disk to my eyes and stepped out to hear the roar of the crowd.

"Hey, my opponent's a little girl? This is gonna be fun!" My opponent chuckled darkly.

I breathed in, swallowing my anger. "Just calm down… I can win! Yeah! We can do this!"

During the ending round, I drew my favorite girl. "Alright!" I sacrifice my Magician's Valkyria to summon out my Dark Magician Girl!" She appeared in a blinding flash of pink light and winked. "And now, I'll activate my face-down, Sage's Stone! And this allows me to summon Dark Magician to the field!" Dark Magician came out solemn, and waved his wand around, purple sparks flying from it. "Now, I'll attack send Dark Magician Girl to attack you directly!" She narrowed her eyes and sent a beam of magic at my opponent. He flinched, but my turn wasn't over. "I guess that your trap card is a card like Negate Attack, so I activate Mystical Space Typhoon! Say bye to your trap!" His Negate Attack was destroyed and sent to the grave. "Finish this! Dark Magic Attack!"

"And that's it, folks! Hoshi Hanako Rhodes has won the New World tournament! Here to congratulate her is Yugi Muto! Along with his friend, Joey Wheeler!"

"That was a very good match, Ms. Rhodes. I see you use a Dark Magic Deck?" Yugi asked. I nodded happily.

"Yes sir, Mr. Yugi, sir!" I chirped, pulling my deck out of the duel disk. I ejected the cards in my grave and shuffled my deck.

"May I see your deck, Miss?" Yugi asked. "Oh, and call me Yugi."

"Sure… Yugi!" I handed him my deck, careful not to drop any cards. Yugi looked over the cards and smiled.

"I have something that I think you'd like. After the ceremony, why don't you come to the game shop?" he asked. I nodded and turned as the announcer started to say the names of the contestants.

"And our winner, the 9-year-old Hoshi Hanako Rhodes!" I stepped up, smiling broadly and waved to the crowd.

"Thanks for coming out everyone!" I yelled. Joey was smiling and Yugi was looking at him knowingly.

End Flashback

"… Hoshi? HOSHI!" My eyes snapped open, only to see Bastion standing above me. "Yeah, Alexis won."

"I knew it! Cough it up, Bastion!" Bastion groaned and handed over my deck. "Thank you!" He mumbled something inaudible. "Well, did you get a good look?" Bastion nodded. "Then… I'm not dueling you!" Bastion sighed and shook his head. I had let him see my deck before the match. If Atticus won, he got one Spell from my deck. But, I got my deck back since Atticus lost horribly to Alexis and her Cyber Angels.

"Ah, well. I'm just worried about Jaden right now. Aren't you?" I nodded, remembering the blank look on Jaden's face when he woke up after losing to Aster.

'I wonder where he is now… '

R & R, if you will!
