Yugiohfreak54 here with "Wedding dual." To make the chapter shorter than the last chap I'm not going to explain Alexis's past. Disclaimer: See previous chaps for Disclaimer. Claimer: See previous chaps as well.
Alexis slipped on Yubel's arm when she had made it back to her dorm room. Mindy and Jasmine were asleep on her bed because they had been waiting for her to return with the details of the 'date' with Jaden. Alexis looked nervously in the mirror and noticed how cool-looking Yubel's arm looked on her.
It fits like a glove. And it feels so alive with energy. I wonder what Yubel looked like before she had destroyed herself? Alexis thought.
My dear, I could show you what I looked like before I destroyed my body. A feminine voice said softly and it sounded a lot like a child.
Alexis jumped when she heard the voice and spun around to face the intruder.
"Who's there?!?!?!" Alexis shouted in alarm.
Alexis, Alexis, still so jumpy after all these years. I see that the reincarnation has made you the same as you were in the past. And to answer your question, I'm Yubel. The childish female voice replied.
"Yubel? I thought that you…were…" Alexis's voice trailed off as she looked at herself in the mirror again.
Her hazel nut eyes were gone, replaced with two different colors. One eye was teal while the other was orange. Alexis continued to stare at the reflection until the reflection spoke in the same voice as the thoughts but it was hers too.
"Are you going to continue to stare at me or are Cyber Tutu and I going to tell you about your past life?" The reflection asked.
Alexis was in such a shock that she just nodded her head disbelieving what she was seeing. The reflection sighed in irritation and answered one of her unspoken questions.
"No, this isn't dream and I am very much real. Now about your past…" The reflection said.
The reflection and Cyber Tutu, who had appeared after Alexis whispered for her presence, told Alexis about her past. When she had heard all of it she passed out onto the floor and slept until it was time to go to school.
Dual Academy Tennis Courts
"Ready to get your game on, kids? Your tennis game that is?" A woman who had a mix of maroon and purple hair squealed.
Jaden watched as Syrus Truesdale panicked and hit the tennis ball with a weak effort. He sighed as he watched Mindy hit it back to their side of court, winking at him. Jaden shivered at the wink and blocked the ball from hitting the ground, nearly falling over.
"What's the point of tennis anyway and what does it have to do with dueling?" Jaden asked in dead tone.
"Ah, hello! Tennis focuses on strategy and you can use that in dueling." Jasmine said also winking at him.
Jaden glared at Jasmine and went to hit the ball. His racket managed to hit the ball but it went to the other court at an alarming speed. Jaden looked at the other court and saw that the ball was heading toward Alexis.
"YUB…ALEXIS! LOOK OUT!" He managed to shout before he fell to the ground.
Alexis started to turn her head at Jaden's shout but a figure jumped between her and a fast approaching ball.
Huh? Who is that? Alexis thought.
The figure landed on his feet and turned to face Alexis. Jasmine and Mindy had run over to her to see who the unknown figure was. Jaden picked himself up and glanced at the foursome.
"Hey there, girls." The figure said as he brushed his hair back.
Jasmine and Mindy took one look at the stranger and instantly had hearts in their eyes. Alexis wondered who the heck this guy was.
"My name is Harrington Rosewood. And I just saved you from a hit in the head. Wha? Alexis Rhodes?" Harrington asked his eyes wide.
"Yeah, that's me." Alexis said in a flat tone.
"I can't believe it! I just saved the Queen of Obelisk Blue." Harrington said as he took Alexis's hand.
"I can't believe that I'm talking to you let alone holding your hand!"
When Jaden saw Harrington holding Alexis's hand, he felt anger boiling in his heart.
How dare that upstart touch my Alexis hand. Wait, did I just say 'my Alexis'? No I didn't but how dare he touch the body that Yubel inhabits. Jaden thought angrily.
Harrington waved good-bye to Alexis as he strolled off the court. Alexis shivered at the wave and turned to look for Jaden but he was being called by Dr. Crowler who had a black eye from the rouge tennis ball.
Yubel, I've been meaning to ask you something. Alexis thought in her mind.
Oh, and what is that? Yubel replied.
Does…Jaden have any feelings for me? Alexis thought nervously.
Yubel hesitated briefly. If she said yes, it would make it so that Alexis and Jaden would be together but if she did that Jaden would feel betrayed. But if she didn't tell it would break Alexis's heart and that was something she didn't want at all. So she settled for telling half of the truth.
To be honest, I don't know Alexis. I told him about you and he's hasn't been the same ever since. Yubel said.
Alexis was disappointed but knew that Yubel didn't know yet so she would give Jaden time to admit it himself.
Nurse's Office
"Jaden Yuki! This is the last straw! Assaulting a teacher is suspension but seeing as how I'm in a generous mood I willing to reduce your punishment to joining the tennis team." Crowler said.
Jaden glared at Crowler but said nothing. He then turned around and started to walk toward the tennis court.
"Doctor, you know Jaden didn't purposely try to injure you. Why are you taking everything out on him?" Fonda Fontaine asked.
Crowler didn't answer the nurse/P.E. teacher. He wanted to humiliate Yuki for making him look bad in front of Chancellor Sheppard.
Outside Dual Academy Tennis court
"Alexis! Harrington is the perfect boyfriend for you!" Mindy said happily.
Alexis closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose with her hand.
"Mindy, why do you think Harrington is the perfect boyfriend for me?" Alexis asked.
"He's a tennis phenomenon and he is rich plus he is a third year Obelisk. Having him as a boyfriend will make you set for life." Jasmine said also happily.
Alexis looked at both of the girls and then she sighed in annoyance.
"I was asking Mindy, Jazz. And are you guys trying to get me interested in Rosewood so that you can have Jaden all to yourselves?" Alexis asked accusingly.
Jasmine and Mindy looked at her in shock and then they stepped back from Alexis, fear showing on their faces. Alexis was dumbstruck at the way they were acting.
What now? What made them step back? And why do they look so scared? Alexis thought.
I believe I can answer that. The childish voice of Yubel cut in.
Oh, really? And how can you answer my questions? Alexis thought in anger.
Simple. Look at your reflection. Yubel replied.
Alexis turned her head to a large window and what she saw made her blood freeze. Her hazel eyes had become orange on the left side and teal on the right side. She closed her eyes and breathe deeply, calming the rising storm in her. She looked in the window again and saw that her eyes had returned to normal. She then turned to Mindy and Jasmine who were still staring at her with fear.
"Sorry about that. Jaden warned me that the new dual disk that he designed would have some weird effects on me whenever I get too angry." Alexis said a sheepish smile crossing her face.
Mindy and Jasmine shook their heads and then noticed the Slifer trio running to the tennis courts. All three girls were wondering what was going on and rushed after the Slifers.
"Sy! Why are you guys running?" Mindy shouted to the small bluenette.
"To see Jaden!" He shouted in reply.
"Why?" Jasmine asked.
"So that we can see Senor Yuki beat Senor Harrington at tennis." Jess Hernandez shouted back.
The girls looked at one another and ran to keep up with the Slifer reds.
Tennis court one
Jaden fell to his knees panting. Harrington looked at Jaden and smirked.
"Looks like you never worked out before in your life. So I guess I have you do 100 racket crosses." Harrington said smiling.
Alexis, Jasmine, Mindy, and the Slifer trio ran in. When Yubel saw Jaden kneeling, she became furious. Alexis winched in pain as Yubel's anger flooded her like a tidal wave.
Yubel! What are you doing? Why are you so angry? Alexis thought through the pain.
Jaden! Alexis, can you not feel the pain he has?!?! Yubel screeched in her head.
Alexis looked at Jaden and did indeed feel pain coming from her side. She grimaced as it grew when Jaden tired to stand up and fell back down onto his side. Alexis walked out to the court and passed Harrington who began staring at her with lust in his eyes.
"Jaden, Yubel wants to tell you something." Alexis said in a low voice.
That got Jaden to stand up and look at her which made Harrington jealous. Fire erupted around him and he cut in between the two.
"Hey! Who said that you could talk to MY Alexis?" He asked fire in his eyes.
Jaden looked at Harrington and smirked. Harrington continued to glare at Jaden who spoke up.
"Alright, Lex. What did you have to tell me?" Jaden asked ignoring Harrington.
"LEX?!?!?!? Is that supposed to be some sort of pet name?!?!?" Harrington asked in a loud voice.
"Chill, Harrington. Lex is just her nickname." Jaden replied coolly.
Harrington couldn't take it anymore. He erupted at Jaden's coolness and at the way he looked at Alexis. He got in his head an idea that would make Alexis all his.
"Yuki, I challenge you to a dual to be Alexis's fiancé." Harrington said in anger.
Jaden cocked his head to the side and nodded slowly.
"I don't back down from a challenge and nor do I disappoint in entertaining my…"
Jaden seemed to struggle with the word but then he said it.
"Friends."
Harrington had his disk strapped around his arm as he got it from one of his helpers and Jaden made his dual disk present as well. No one knew how but it just simply appeared. Jasmine and Mindy seemed excited that two boys were battling it out for Alexis's hand.
"Alexis, this soooo sweet! Two boys madly in love with you battling it out for your hand!" Mindy squealed.
Alexis pinched the bridge of her nose with Yubel's arm and sighed.
"I'm only staying to see if Harrington has the same skills as Zane does." Alexis huffed.
You know that isn't true, Alexis. You want Jaden to win. After all, you two were supposed to be married in your past life. Yubel interjected.
"Yubel, do me a favor will ya?" Alexis growled quietly as a blush crept onto her cheeks.
Of course, and what is that favor? Yubel said.
"Shut. Up." Alexis muttered as she heard both boys yell.
"Dual!" Harrington shouted.
"Get your game on!" Jaden shouted.
Harrington: 4000/Jaden: 4000
"I'll start." Harrington hissed as he drew his card.
He took a look at it and added it to his hand. He then chose another card in his hand and placed it in one of his spell and trap card zone.
"I place one card face-down and then I activate Power Serve. This spell card of mine allows me to chose one card in my hand. You have to guess what it is; spell, trap, or monster. Guess wrong and you take 1500 points of damage. Guess right and you receive no damage."
Harrington chose a card in his hand and held it up. Jaden crossed his arms as he looked at the card. He was busy calculating the odds of getting it right.
Hmmm…one in three chances of getting it right. Guess I'll have to try process of elimination. Jaden thought.
"Heh. This is probably the most work out you ever got, Yuki." Harrington taunted.
Jaden ignored the taunt and made his decision.
"Is it a monster card?" Jaden asked calmly.
Harrington face showed that he was uncomfortable with the question and that betrayed what Jaden was thinking. Harrington's act of surprise sealed Jaden's decision and he continued to press on.
"Yes, I believe it is a monster card. So that is my answer."
Harrington placed the spell card in the grave and the monster card in his pocket in a glum and shocked state.
"I end my turn."
"My turn. I draw!" Jaden shouted as he drew his card.
He glanced at it before he added it to his hand. He then chose the spell card that had granted him victory in his dual against Crowler.
"I activate the spell card Dark Fusion! Now I fuse Elemental Hero Wildheart with Elemental Hero Avian to form…Evil Hero Wild Cyclone (ATK: 1900 DEF: 2300)!"
A muscled monster that had wings on its back appeared in a twister and settled next to Jaden. He then chose another card in his hand and placed it in one of his Monster zone in face up attack mode.
"Next I play Evil Hero Infernal Gainer (ATK: 1600 DEF: 0) in attack mode."
A monster that had the body of a skeleton and a torn cape flew onto the field and stood next to Wild Cyclone.
"Now I'll have Wild Cyclone attack you directly!"
"Not so fast! I activate my trap card, Negate Attack! With this trap card, I stop your attack cold." Harrington shouted with a smile.
The smile quickly faded as soon as he saw that his trap card wasn't activating and Wild Cyclone was still rushing him.
"Hey! What gives? My trap should be activating and stopping your monster."
Harrington then started to check his disk, muttering under his breath that his disk had a bug or something loose. Jaden watched the scene until he became bored.
"The reason your trap isn't activating is because of Wild Cyclone's effect." Jaden said with a sneer.
Harrington looked at him with confusion on his face.
"What do you mean?" Harrington asked.
Jaden sighed at Harrington's stupidity and then explained his Evil Hero's effect.
"When Wild Cyclone attacks, no trap or spell cards can be activated until the end phase of the damage step. Like Ancient Gear Golem's effect. Also if you take battle damage all traps and spells are eradicated."
Harrington looked in horror as a tornado whirled around Wild Cyclone and the wind lashed out at him causing his life points to plummet.
Harrington: 2100/Jaden: 4000
Harrington gasped as he saw his trap card disappear into dust. He then looked at Jaden with hatred in his eyes. Jaden looked unnerved at the glare and then mentioned to his second monster.
"Infernal Gainer, attack Harrington directly."
The second monster rushed toward Harrington and slashed at him with his claws. Harrington screamed like a little girl as his life points fell.
Harrington: 500/Jaden: 4000
"Now, I remove Infernal Gainer from play in order for Wild Cyclone to attack you again!"
"WHA?!?!?!"
The tornado that was formed from Wild Cyclone hit Harrington hard enough that he was thrown back and hit the wall with a sickening CRUNCH. The CRUNCH indicated that Harrington had at least had a broken arm and several cracked ribs.
"That's game." Jaden said as he lowered his arm.
Jasmine, Mindy and the Slifer trio stared on as Jaden made his way over to Alexis. Alexis was inwardly smiling that Jaden was her fiancé but she held her cold stare as he approached. Jaden then stopped and turned to the small crowd behind him.
"Can Alexis and I have some alone time?" He asked in a harsh voice.
The two Obelisk girls and the three Slifer red boys beat a hasty retreat from the court. After they were gone, and after Harrington was carted away on a stretcher, Jaden looked Alexis in the eyes.
"Alexis, if you don't want me to be your fiancé then just say the word. I only dueled Harrington so that Yubel could gain his dual energy. And to injure him so that I didn't have him 'train' me in tennis anymore." Jaden said softly.
Alexis looked at him uncomfortably. Her mind was buzzing with excitement at the thought of being the new king of Obelisk Blue's fiancé but she wanted him to get to know her first. So she made a decision that would, hopefully, be the best choice for both of them.
"Jaden, I need some time to think about it. I'll let you know when I'm ready." Alexis said also softly.
Jaden nodded and then turned to the arena exit. Alexis looked after him and felt her heart sag slightly until Yubel spoke up.
Alexis, you made the right choice. Jaden isn't ready for that step either and besides he wants to get to know you better too. Yubel whispered.
"Oh, so Jaden does have feelings for me then." Alexis teased.
Yubel sighed and mentally scolded herself for slipping up. Alexis then started walking to catch up with her friends.
Alright, next chapter features Blair! She tries to see Zane and you know how she goes to see him. You'll have to read the next chapter "You're a WHAT?!?!?"to see what happens. Please review. I'm also going to try and create a picture of Alexis with Yubel's eyes. I'll post it on my Deviant Art page which is Nemesisprime91. You may have to type in 'Alexis Possessed'. Note: I may have gotten the names of the spell and trap cards used by Harrington wrong as well as the effects. If I did I deeply apologize. Also Jaden is wearing a new pair of sunglasses so that nobody else can see his gold eyes. And yes Jaden does know the meaning of the word 'Fiancé' and I am going by the way the anime portrayed Infernal Gainer's effect
