Yeah, i increased the thing to "M" Big whooping deal, Now don't think I wasn't doing anything during that time period, I was working on both Chapters 10 and 11, so ha.

Previously;

That's right, Chazz Princeton had a gun.

Chapter 11; Struggle

A strange sadistic smirk appeared on Slade's lips.

"Your willing to go this far?" Slade remarked, "How… out of character."

"You threatened to kill me, so this would be considered self-defense." Chazz's voice was emotionless. He still didn't make eye contact.

Hell, he didn't even turn around when he first pointed the gun at Slade.

"Yes, but are you willing to go that far? Pointing a gun at someone doesn't mean you are going to shoot it. What's to tell me that it's loaded?" Slade said, his mind games had no effect on his little brother.

Chazz stood up slowly, turning his body toward his brother; emotionlessly he pointed it toward the window and without hesitation fired a single round.

The bullet shattered the window, making the glass litter the small balcony that was located outside it.

"Is that proof enough?"

Slade's smirk widened. Chazz was going to fight with his all.

His brother was so naïve.

Chazz returned his aim toward Slade.

Slade didn't say anything, but he still had his sadistic smirk on.

"Now what?" Slade asked.

"Now you get out of my way." Chazz ordered. Yeah, he just ordered his big brother.

Of course, that didn't mean that the older brother was going to listen.

"You are going to have to try harder then that." He told his little brother. "Or are you forgetting that I have a gun myself?"

"I don't care."

"Good."


"Chancellor Shepard!!" A voice called as the owner ran down the corridor and into the chancellor's office.

"What is it, officer Rouge?" The Chancellor asked as he saw the armed DA security guard entered the room.

"I came to inform you that a gunshot was heard from the Obelisk boy's dorms. Permission to enter?"

"Permission granted."

"Thank you sir."

The guard ran out of the office after a short bow.


"Move."

"Not going to happen, I still have to finish you."

"Not a chance."

The duel raged on.

"Jaden… Zane, you have to recover properly, this won't help." Syrus yelled as he entered the room. "Putting strain on yourselves by dueling won't help!!"

The two boys looked at him.

"Don't worry Syrus, we're fine." Jaden said, turning toward the blue haired boy.

Unknowingly, he put his weight on his bad right leg and fell onto the ground.

"Jaden!!!"

"I'm okay," The brunette said, slowly getting up and adjusting the weight he was putting on his legs. He looked at Zane. "All right, lets continue-."

The bell rang, signifying that lunch was over and it was time to get back to class.

"Ah, man." Jaden whined. "And I was winning…"

"We'll have a rematch later Jaden." Zane assured him as he withdrew all the cards in his duel disk and returned them to his deck. "We should head back to-, "

He cut off, a soft, echoing sound that all the boys heard drew there attention. It sounded like… a gunshot.

"Syrus," Zane called, turning toward his younger brother. "Inform the DA security and Chancellor Shepard. I'm going to check that out." Before either boy could respond, he turned and headed toward the sounds origin.

"Wait, Zane." Jaden began, "I'm coming too!!" He followed the older boy into the woods and towards the Obelisk boy's dorm.


"…"

The silence was eerie.

The two bothers stared at each other. Neither said a word.

"I'm wasting too much time." Chazz thought. It had already been fifteen minutes since this had started.

Who knew what had happened to Alexis by now?

Chazz charged, he dodged the bullet path of the gun and ran out the door, slamming it shut and locking it with his key from the outside. He sprinted outside and towards the girl's dorms.

He wasn't aware if Slade was following him or not.

All he could think of right now was Alexis.

At that moment, he was praying to every God he could think of that nothing happened to her.

He knew Jagger was in the building, he just didn't know if he found Alexis.

If he did, what would he do?

The thought made him run even faster, putting all his energy into running.

In less then ten minutes, he was there.

He automatically ran in, Alexis's room number in his mind.

"Number 205, west wing, 205 west wing."

He ran into the wing and up the stairs. Her room was at the end of the hall. He ran over and grabbed the door knob, turning it open and bursting inside.

"ALEXIS!!"


The suspence, oh well, please read and review... Heh
