Jaden's POV

"BROOK IS BRAD'S GIRLFRIEND!" I yelled in complete shock. Alexis looked nearly as shocked as I was. Sam, who was standing next to me, spoke up.

"I told you," she said as she folded her arms across her chest. I shook my head, trying to clear it. By now, Brad and Brook had reached us.

"Hey guys," he said, smiling. Sam glared at him; she seemed almost ashamed to call him family. Brad wasn't even fazed by the glare or the meaning behind it.

"Hello," Brook said. Her tone was flawlessly polite.

"Morning," I greeted both of them with a nod of my head.

"Yeah, hi," Sam said. Her tone was somewhat sharp. I elbowed her lightly in the ribs. She sighed but didn't say anything more.

"Who's this, cus?" Brad asked me. He pointed to Alexis.

"I'm Alexis," she introduced herself. Brook's left eye twitched lightly as she noticed that Alexis and I were holding hands. Brad smiled nicely at Alexis.

"It's very nice to meet you, Alexis," he said. Alexis smiled at him.

"Likewise." I sighed. I couldn't tell why Brad was being so nice. Was it just to impress Brook or to impress Alexis?

"Why are you being so polite?" Sam asked Brad, seeming annoyed. He looked at her in shock.

"I'm always polite, dear little cousin." Even I could hear the falseness of his tone. Sam snorted.

"Yes, and Jaden always got A's on his math tests," she said sarcastically. I pouted as Brad glared at her.

"That's mean, Sam," I said, still pouting. Alexis giggled and I smiled. Sam waved her hand in a dismissing manner.

"Yeah, whatever," she said, "Now if you would excuse me, I've got to go talk to my daddy about the cutest shoes that Joni showed me yesterday that I just have to have!" She started jogging toward Mike. "Daddy!" Mike freaked and reached in his back pocket.

"HANG ONTO MY WALLET!" he yelled. He tossed his wallet to Dad, who didn't catch it and it fell into the pool.

"Dude, you just ruined a genuine leather wallet," Jake said. He was balancing a metal gazebo poll on his shoulder. Dad was unfolding the top of the gazebo. Mike was fishing out some tools when he tossed his wallet.

"I don't care! As long as Sam doesn't get anything in it!" Mike yelled. Sam knelled down next to the edge of the pool and reached in, pulling out two rectangular pieces of plastic.

"Oh! Credit cards!" she squealed. Mike jumped into the pool to swim across and steal his credit cards back. Sam turned around to be met with her mother. Aunt May had her hand extended toward Sam.

"Give them here, Sam," May said. Sam pouted and handed her the credit cards. May sighed, "All of them." Sam growled but handed May the other credit card. May sighed and slid them into her back pocket. Mike rested his arms on the edge of the pool. His hair was dripping wet; he looked at Sam with a frown on his face.

"Why must you make me go bankrupt, Sam?" Mike asked. She pouted at him.

"Is it my fault I want nice things?" she asked; the question rhetorical.

"Yes," everyone replied.

"Humph." She folded her arms across her chest. I sighed and Alexis giggled.

"I thought you were going to spend your summer with your friends, Jay," Brad said, drawing attention back to himself. I looked back at him.

"I am." I

"It sure doesn't look like you are," he countered. I sighed.

"We're spending the summer in Ochi City." He laughed.

"Oh, that must be so much fun for you!" he said, still laughing. Brook rolled her eyes and I sighed.

"Yes just loads," I replied sarcastically. He stopped laughing but was still smiling. "Now, if you would excuse us," I said. Before Brad or Brook could say anything, I began walking in the direction of the barn, towing Alexis behind me.

"Where are we going?" she asked. She walked back up to my side. I smiled at her.

"I just wanna show you something," I said. She cocked her head to the side in confusion. I smiled at her. By now we were standing outside the barn. I pushed the door open and pulled Alexis inside. Alexis gasped.

"Oh, my, god," she breathed looking around. Horses whinnied around us. There were seven stalls on each side of the barn. They didn't begin at the beginning of the barn; the start of the rows left about fifteen feet. Each stall was about twelve feet wide and ten feet long. There was a ladder on the left side of the barn that rose up into the rafters; in the rafters were bales of hay. Each of the fourteen stalls had one beautiful horse in it. At the end of the barn was a large, empty area. In the empty area were all the tools necessary for horse care. There was a large door at the end of the barn; it was closed.

"Sounds like they're hungry," I said chuckling. I walked up to Alexis' side. She looked at me.

"Horses?" she questioned. I smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, what else would you keep in a barn?" I asked in a teasing tone. She smiled.

"I guess you have a point, but horses in Japan…" She trailed off. I nodded.

"Yeah, but well, my mom is from America and she really loved horses and sense my dad really loves my mom, he brought horses here."

"Just for her?"

"Yeah, just for her." I tugged her arm in the direction of the horses. "Come one, let me introduce you guys." She giggled but followed me willingly. We stopped in front of the first stall on the right. Inside stood a beautiful tan horse with a white mane and tail. "This is Summer." Summer whinnied at the sound of her name. I held out my hand, in which I held some hay. Summer ate it willingly.

"She's beautiful," Alexis said. I looked at her and smiled. Summer finished the hay and I ran my hand down her face gently.

"Don't be shy, she doesn't bite," I assured her. She reached over toward her hesitantly and placed her hand just above her nose. Summer bobbed her head up and down so her hand ran up and down her face. Alexis laughed and I smiled. I patted Summer on the head and then began to tug Alexis down the row. I introduced each horse and fed each of them. Alexis insisted on petting each of them. Next to Summer was Cookie Dough, a tan horse with brown spots. Following Cookie was Sunlight, a beautiful golden horse with a white mane and tail. Then there was Prince, Rebel, Flower, and Hammy. Each horse was unique and very beautiful. I took her down the other wall, beginning with the horse right across from Hammy. Her name was Venus. Following Venus was Coffee. Then there was Walker, Rose, Alvin, Dawn, and Chocolate.

"Your names are very interesting," Alexis said as she held some hay out for Chocolate. She giggled as he ate it. I smiled and wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Well, I thought of a few but mainly my mom, Mia, and Zoey named them," I explained. She nodded and pulled her now clean hand back from Chocolate. He whinnied and then turned around in his stall. "Well, actually, there is one more horse I want to show you," I said. She looked at me over her shoulder.

"Really? Where?" she asked, excited. I chuckled and removed my arms from her waist. I took her hand and began pulling her in the direction of the closed door.

"All of these horses are my mom and dad's; Sunshine and Prince are Mia and Zoey's horses," I began to explain. Alexis looked over at me. By now we were standing in front of the door. "But I have my own horse, and he's in here." I pulled open the door and Alexis gasped at what she saw. Standing in a stall in the very back of the room, which wasn't very large, was a stunning horse. Its midnight black coat shimmered and its dark eyes darted over us. It whinnied harshly and began to buck violently. Alexis gasped and jumped behind me. "Midnight is his name…and he's a wild mustang." She looked at me in shock.

"You have a wild…mustang!" she gasped. I nodded. She shook her head and looked back at Midnight. He was still glaring at us hatefully.

"Midnight doesn't like being locked up like that," I explained. She nodded.

"I'll bet." I stayed quiet and stared at my horse. We kept our distance from Midnight, who was now running around his stall. "Why is he yours?"

"Because if I didn't take him than we would have had to put him down." Alexis gasped and pulled back from me. I looked at her.

"You would have…," she began to say. I nodded.

"We wouldn't have had a choice. He's just too dangerous."

"Then why did you keep him just because you said you'd take him?"

"Because I'm the only one who can get close enough to him to take care of him," I answered.

"What about when you're at Duel Academy?" Just as I was about to answer, Sam's voice broke through the air.

"JADEN! ALEXIS! GET YOUR BUTTS OUT HERE NOW! IT'S TIME FOR MONSTER BADMINTON!" Alexis blinked and I laughed. Midnight kept running.

"Monster badminton?" she questioned. I laughed and nodded. I tugged her out of the room and closed the door without looking back at Midnight.

"Yeah, come on, you'll love it," I said smiling.
