'Jaden talking to a duel spirit'

Chapter 9

It was two days ago that Jaden beat Chazz in the school duel. Chazz decided to stay at duel academy so that he could beat Jaden one day. Jaden was walking to class and was already twenty minutes to late. He was now walking in the hall and heard someone call his name and when he turned around he saw that it was the Chancellor so Jaden waited for him.

"Why did you call me?" Jaden asked as the Chancellor stood next to him.

"I never knew you had such a bad past and I'm sorry for you," Sheppard said.

"I'm over the death of my parents, is there anything else why you called me," Jaden said.

"Actually there is one more thing," Sheppard said.

"I don't know if I can help you but I'll try," Jaden said.

"You told me when you came to duel academy about the shadow riders but can you tell me how you know that they'll come?" Sheppard asked.

"That's my secret, only a few people know about that and maybe it is better that you don't know," Jaden said.

Sheppard looked disappointed but he didn't want to know if it had to do something with his past so he didn't ask another question. "I suggest you better go to class, you're already late and you know what Crowler will do if you're late," Sheppard said and walked away.

Jaden stood still for a few seconds and then continued to walk to his class. When he stood in front of the doors to the class he took a deep breath and then opened the door and walked inside. Everyone turned around to see who walked in the class. "Sorry, I overslept again," Jaden said which made everyone laugh but made Crowler furious but she didn't yell at him for the first time. Jaden walked to his seat next to Alexis. When he sat he saw that Alexis was smiling. "Why are you so happy?" Jaden asked.

Alexis blushed when heard him say that. "D-do you want to go so-somewhere tomorrow?" Alexis stuttered.

"You mean you want to have a date?" Jaden asked which made Alexis blush even harder. She couldn't say anything so she nodded instead. On Jaden's face grew big smile. "Sure," Jaden said with a smile from ear to ear. This time they both blushed and they looked as red as the slifer's Jacket.

"Alexis can you please answer my question?" Crowler asked which brought Jaden and Alexis back from their little conversation. Crowler asked Alexis because he knew Alexis would know the answer.

"Sorry teach but I wasn't paying attention," Alexis said which shocked everyone because Alexis always paid attention to class.

"It my fault teach, I asked her something," Jaden lied which made Crowler furious again.

'He isn't five minutes in my class and he's already distracting everyone. I'll make him pay!' Crowler yelled in her head. "Then can you tell the class what the answer is on my question?" Crowler asked.

"I didn't hear your question either," Jaden said.

"Can you tell the class about the supreme king?" Crowler asked knowing he didn't know the answer because he didn't pay attention to class.

"Sure, what do you want to know?" Jaden asked.

"Begin us with telling who he's," Crowler said.

"He was once the king of the world. Everyone thought he was evil because he destroyed many cities and murdered many people but he killed those people because they were evil. His name was Haou," Jaden explained short.

"What can you tell us about the deck?" Crowler asked but he didn't know which deck he used so he couldn't tell Jaden if he was wrong or not. Jaden didn't answer him. "If you don't know which deck he used you can just say it, you won't be embarrassed," Crowler said with a smirk.

Jaden was thinking for a few seconds. 'I don't think they will know I'm his incarnation,' Jaden thought. He looked around the class and saw that everyone was looking at him. He sighted and after that he took a deep breath which made everyone confused. "The deck he used was the evil hero deck," Jaden said which made everyone shocked.

"You mean the deck he used is the same deck you used as Chazz in his duel?" Alexis asked and Jaden nodded.

Crowler didn't believe him. "How do you know we can trust you?" Crowler asked.

"Wait a few seconds," Jaden said and searched for something in his bag and after a few seconds he took a book out of the bag. The book was black and the title was 'supreme king'. The book was a few hundred pages thick. Jaden opened the book and was searching for a page. After thirty seconds he stopped and turned the book around so that Crowler could read it. He already walked to Jaden's desk without Jaden noticing it. "Just read this," Jaden said and pointed to a text with an image of the supreme king on it. Luckily he couldn't see the face of the supreme king. The only thing he could see where his golden eyes.

Jaden saw Crowler reading the text. After a few minutes he was done reading. "So, what do you think now?" Jaden asked.

"Here stand that he did use the 'evil hero' deck but here stands that he was the only one who could use those cards because if anyone else used them something would always happen to them," Crowler explained.

"I guess that's the only lie because you see, I can use those cards and nothing happened to me," Jaden lied. "Maybe he was the only one who could use that deck in the time he lived," Jaden added.

"I still don't believe you," Crowler growled and turned to the next page and saw that the supreme king wasn't wearing his helmet. When Crowler saw this he looked closely to him and saw that he looked almost completely the same as Jaden except his golden eyes weren't the same. Jaden wasn't paying attention to his so he didn't saw that Crowler turned to the next page until he looked back at his book.

When Jaden saw this he became furious and his eyes turned to gold but a second after that they returned to brown so they all thought it was their imagination or that it had to do something with the reflection of the light. "You know that I paid fortune for that book so I would appreciate it that you don't read it," Jaden said calm but serious. Crowler looked a little longer to the image of the supreme king and then closed the book. Jaden grabbed it quickly and placed it back in his bag.

Crowler continued with his lessons but he always looked at Jaden confused which made everyone curious. When class for today was finished everyone left. This time Jaden didn't leave as first but he was the last person to leave, even Crowler was gone before him. After Crowler left he called his family, it was forbidden to call with someone with your own phone. Actually it was forbidden to have a own phone with you to duel academy. One hour after Crowler left the class he left the classroom as well. Everyone who saw him walk out the class looked confused again but Jaden ignored them and walked back to his own room to place his bag in his room and after that he walked to the slifer dorm so he could spend some time with Syrus and Chumley.

When he walked in the slifer cafeteria he saw that Alexis was there as well. When they heard the door opening they all looked to see who walked in the cafeteria. When they saw it was Jaden they looked happy to see him. "Why are you happy to see me?" Jaden asked confused.

"We were all worried because we walked to your room to see if you were there because you didn't leave the classroom but you weren't there so we thought that something happened with you," Alexis explained.

"There was nothing wrong with me," Jaden said.

"But where were you then?" Syrus asked.

"I stayed a little longer in the class. I left one hour after Crowler left the classroom," Jaden said which made they confused.

"First of all Crowler always leaves one hour after class is finished so that meant you stayed two hours in class after it was finished," Syrus said.

"What where you doing so long in class?" Chumley asked.

"I don't know, I was so tired I didn't want to leave class," Jaden said.

"What bring you here?" Syrus asked.

"I was bored so I thought that if I would spend some time with you I wouldn't be bored," Jaden said.

"Can I ask you something about class with Crowler?" Alexis asked.

"What do you want to know?" Jaden asked with a smile which made Alexis smile as well. He already knew what she wanted to ask him.

"Why was Crowler the whole time looking at you after he has read something in that book?" Alexis asked curious while she was looking in Jaden's eyes.

"You will find out soon enough," Jaden said which made everyone sad. "Come on, everyone has a secret where no one knows about," Jaden said and they all nodded. When Jaden saw Syrus nod he had a huge smile on his face but luckily no one noticed it. After one hour Alexis left because she had to study for tomorrow because they had a written test. Jaden stayed in the red dorm to help Syrus and Chumley so they would pass this test. After two hours Jaden thought that they knew everything so that they could pass this test and Jaden left the slifer dorm and returned to his own room to study a bit. He knew that he would pass the test of Crowler tomorrow but he wanted to have 100% on the test, not because he was a nerd but he didn't want to lose his reputation as a pro duelist.

The next day Jaden was sitting in class and was already finished with his test and was waiting for the rest to finish. He was looking to Syrus and Chumley to see how they were doing. They were finished ten minutes after Jaden was finished, they were the second and third person to finish. They walked to Crowler's desk and give him there tests. Everyone was surprised to see that two slifers were finished before all the ra's and obelisk's. Thirty minutes after Syrus and Chumley were finished all the other students were finished as well so they could leave class.

Jaden was waiting for Syrus and Chumley to hear if they made their test good or bad but they probably passed their test but he still wanted to make sure they did. Alexis was standing left of Jaden. Everyone thought Alexis and Jaden were a couple because the last few days they were always together. Jaden saw Syrus and Chumley walking to him and Alexis with a big smile on both their faces. "Why are they so happy?" Alexis asked curious.

"You will find out soon enough," Jaden said which made Alexis even more curious. Jaden waited for Syrus and Chumley to approach them.

"Why are you so happy?" Alexis asked when Syrus and Chumley stood opposite of them.

"Because we both know that we passed the test without any problem," Syrus said.

"How can you be so sure about that? I don't even know if I passed my test," Alexis said ashamed because two slifers know that they passed the test and that she doesn't know if she has passed.

"That's because Jaden helped us with studying yesterday. He helped us after you left," Chumley said.

"Wow! I never thought you would help someone with a written test," Alexis said amazed.

"If you needed my help I would help you as well," Jaden said which made Alexis blush but Jaden didn't see it.

"The next time we have a test you have to help me so I can have a better score," Alexis said and Jaden nodded. Syrus, Chumley, Jaden and Alexis walked together out of the academy and Jaden and Alexis said goodbye to Chumley and Syrus and they walked to the obelisk blue dorm while Syrus and Chumley walked to the slifer dorm. "I'll see you in half an hour, I'll wait for you in front of the guys' dorm," Jaden said, Alexis nodded and Jaden left.

When Jaden walked in his room he took a quick shower first and after that he changed his clothes. Normally he wears the obelisk blue outfit but because he has a 'date' with Alexis h decided to wear something else. He was wearing a dark blue T-shirt, nothing stood on the T-shirt. He was wearing a black pants and black shoes. When he looked at his watch he saw that he only had five minutes left before Alexis would arrive.

He walked out of his room and locked it. He walked out the dorm and waited for Alexis to come. He wasn't even there for one minute and he saw Alexis walking to him. She was wearing a white T-shirt with a cyber blader on it, she was wearing a blue pants and white shoes. When Jaden saw her he blushed.

Alexis saw that Jaden had a lot of muscles. She never noticed it before because he's always wearing his vest. "Wow!" Alexis said blushing.

"What's 'wow'?" Jaden asked confused and looked at Alexis and saw that she was looking at his body. Jaden blushed "Can you please stop looking at me?" Jaden asked.

Alexis face turned to ark red now once he heard Jaden say that. "I'm sorry, I never knew you looked like this," Alexis said and looked away from Jaden.

"I don't want to take advantage of a girl because of my looks. It doesn't really matter how you look, its how you're from the inside," Jaden said. "And to let you know, you don't take advantage of your looks," Jaden said and realized his mistake after a few seconds and turn red as well. 'Why did I just say that she looks beautiful?' Jaden said to himself. 'I hope she doesn't release what I meant to say,' Jaden thought but by the look of Alexis's face he could tell that she knew what he meant.

"Why don't you just tell her you like her?" yubel said to Jaden when she appeared next to Jaden.

'Shut up!' Jaden growler to Yubel.

"You're no fun" Yubel said and disappeared.

"Where do you want to go?" Jaden asked.

"What if we just walk to one direction and if we find a place where we want to stay we stay there?" Alexis asked. Jaden nodded and they walked to the south of where they were.

After ten minutes Jaden had a feeling that they were being followed by someone but he didn't see anyone so he thought he was a little paranoid. They walked for another ten minutes and saw someone standing there. Jaden looked closely to the man and he hasn't seen him. The man was wearing a black jeans and a black T-shirt and his face was covered by a mask. "Go back to your dorm and spend some time with Mindy and Jasmine. Whatever happens don't come back," Jaden said to Alexis.

Alexis was stunned by this. "Why should I leave you here alone?" Alexis asked confused.

"Just go!" Jaden yelled. Alexis hesitated for a while. Eventually she turned around and ran away. Jaden smiled to her but then focused back on the man. "What are you doing here?" Jaden asked.

"If you let me take the girl I'll let you leave without hurting you," the man said with an evil smile.

"I won't you let her take you," Jaden said.

"Then we have to take you by force," The man said.

"What do you mean 'we'?" Jaden asked confused but he got his answer fat because he saw two other persons walked to the man. They looked the same as the first man except they were a little smaller but they were still a lot bigger than Jaden. Jaden could see that they were a lot stronger than he is. "This is bad," Jaden whispered.

"Did you change our mind?" The man asked.

"No!" Jaden said angry.

"Bad choice," The man said smiling and the two other persons smiled as well. The left man and the man in the middle walked to Jaden and grabbed him. Jaden struggled to get free and he kicked them a few times. One of them let go of Jaden and Jaden tried to get free of the second person as well. After a while the second person lost his grip on Jaden as well.

Jaden took this as an opportunity to get away. He turned around and ran away from them. After a few steps He turned around to see what they were doing and saw that one of them had a gun in his hand and saw that he pulled the trigger and after that he heard *BANG* and then felt a lot of pain in his left shoulder. He looked to his shoulder and saw that there was a whole in it and blood was streaming out of it really fast.

Jaden fell to the ground from the pain in his shoulder. Jaden was furious at them but didn't let his anger control him. 'I don't want to repeat what happened four years ago,' Jaden thought. He saw that Yubel appeared next to him and saw that she was furious as well. 'Don't do it,' Jaden said serious.

"But they have to pay for what they did!" Yubel said angry.

'I want you to follow Alexis until she's back at her dorm and after that you'll return to me but don't kill them!' Jaden said serious. 'Make sure they won't see you because I give you a physical body,' Jaden said.

Yubel hesitated for a few seconds but she remembered that she promised Jaden that she always would do what he told her and she doesn't want to break that promise. Yubel Flew away from Jaden and followed Alexis.

Alexis was still running back to her dorm. The whole time she was thinking about Jaden and she had a feeling that something bad happened to him but he told her not to go back to him. She really wanted to go back to him but she was scared that something would happen to her as well. After ten minutes she thought that she was being followed but she didn't see anyone. She stopped running and looked one more time to her surroundings but she didn't see anyone.

"I forgot that Jaden gave me a physical body," Yubel said to herself.

Alexis was now walking so no one would think that something happened to her. After five minutes she saw the obelisk blue building and sighed that she made it. She walked to her dorm but she saw Mindy and Jasmine talking.

When Yubel saw that Alexis reached her own dorm she turned around and flew back to Jaden but she felt herself getting weaker and she knew it wasn't of her physical body. She then knew that something was wrong to Jaden so she hurried. When Yubel saw Jaden she wish that she didn't see him. Yubel promised Jaden that she wouldn't kill them. She saw that Jaden was unconscious because if his blood loose but she knew that Jaden wouldn't die or not yet because the three men weren't finished with Jaden. She didn't do anything because she promised Jaden, she didn't kill them and waited for the three men to leave.

When they left she saw Jaden's eye open and tried to speak but at first he couldn't open his mouth but after a few times he could speak. "I'm proud of you," Jaden said smiling and closed his eyes again and lost his consciousness again.

Meanwhile Alexis.

When Jasmine and Mindy saw Alexis they run to her. "Where have you been, we haven't seen you after class was finished and that was more than one hour ago," Mindy said.

"Yeah, we were worried that something happened to you," Jasmine added.

"I'm sorry that I worried you," Alexis said.

"Where have you been?" Mindy asked again.

"I tried to find something about the loss of my brother," Alexis lied.

"If you told us we would help you," Jasmine said.

"I'm sorry for not telling you but now I'm going back to my room," Alexis said and walked away from Mindy and Jasmine which were confused now.

When Alexis reached her room she tried to study but she couldn't because she was still thinking about Jaden after ten minutes she stopped studying because she knew she couldn't study until Jaden would return. She stayed in her room for the rest of the day and didn't leave her room. 'I hope I see him tomorrow in class,' Alexis thought.
