Thetrueazure: I hope you guys had an awesome Halloween. I know I did.
Ritsu: You stood outside and scared anyone who came near the door!
Thetrueazure: *Evil smile*. Disclaimer.
Raikou nodded "Yes, even though the seal was weakened, he is only able to use about half of his strength."
"Which brings me to my next point." Shin said "The Six Element Seal is connected to you guys. If you lose in a shadow duel against one of Apollyon's minions, then your element seal will shatter."
"That sounds bad." Terra said
"It get's worse." Yuki looked at Ritsu "I-If the light user were to lose in a shadow duel, the seal will completely shatter." Everyone gasped at this.
"What do you mean 'completely shatter'?" Akira said
"Without light then the other elements will cease to exist." Shin explained "Light plays a very important role in life. If it's taken out, then it's over."
"No way." Ritsu couldn't believe it, if he were to lose in a shadow duel against one of Apollyon's minions. Then the seal will shatter and the world will end. "How long do we have until the final battle?"
"Two months." Shin said "During that time you must get stronger in order to defeat Apollyon. You may go now."
"Be careful when your dueling from now on OK. I'm going to go check on Keira." Yuzuki walked off.
"If what dad said was true about the seal then I better keep my guard up." Ritsu thought.
Ch.45 Getting Schooled
Kuraki stood in front of a gate with a nervous look on her face. She looked at the sign on the gate which said Duel Academy on it. She then let out a nervous sigh.
"Why am I doing this?" Kuraki thought as she remembered what Kurogasa said a few days ago
*Flashback*
"Duel Academy?" Kuraki said as Kurogasa nodded "Why?"
"I just think you should be able to meet more people." Kurogasa explained "And besides, your seventeen, you should at least do one year of it."
"And what if I don't want to?" Kuraki put her hands on her hips as she stared down her boyfriend
"Then let's make a deal." Kurogasa said
"I'm listening." Kuraki said as she crossed her arms
"If you go to Duel Academy, then I'll go meet the other Signers." Kurogasa proposed
Kuraki thought about the offer "Fine. I'll go."
*End Flashback*
"Do I really have to wear this thing?" Kuraki thought as she wore a burgundy coat, white button-down shirt, black stockings, a medium-length skirt, and a green tie. She let out another sigh "Now or never."
In the principle's office
"Kuraki Dare?" an old man with black hair that was graying and wore a light purple business suit asked
"Y-Yes!" Kuraki replied
The principle laughed "No need to be nervous young lady, I understand it's your first time from someone named Kurogasa?"
Kuraki laughed nervously "Really? Well I should thank him for that." Kuraki said as her eyebrow twitched "When I get back you are so dead!"
The principle printed out her schedule and handed it to her "Here's your schedule."
"Thank you." Kuraki bowed and walked out the door and looked at her schedule "My first class is with Miss Fujimoto."
In the classroom
Students were talking among themselves when a middle aged woman walked through the door with a name tag saying Fujimoto.
"Settle down class, settle down." Miss Fujimoto said "Today we have a new student, now I want everyone to give her a warm welcome alright?" She looked at the door "You can come in now." Kuraki was reluctant to enter but did it anyways. She stood in front of the class.
"H-Hi, my name is Kuraki Dare. I-It's a pleasure to meet you all!" Kuraki felt like her heart was going to blow out of her chest when she spoke.
"Hey teach? Can the new girl sit here?" Kuraki looked and saw a girl who looked about a year older than her with red shoulder length hair and green eyes.
"Sure, Kuraki you can go sit in that open seat there."
"O-OK." Kuraki nervously walked towards her seat as the other students stared at her. Miss Fujimoto slammed the book on her desk, causing the entire class to jump.
"Now that introductions are done, let's get back to our lesson on trigger effects." Miss Fujimoto started her lesson as Kuraki sat down.
"This your first time here?" Kuraki looked at the red haired girl who asked the teacher for her to sit here
"Y-Yeah." Kuraki replied
The girl held out her hand "My names Asuka Endou."
"It's nice to meet you." Kuraki shook her hand
"Miss Dare."
Kuraki shot up from her seat "Y-Yes!"
"Can you explain what a trigger effect is?"
"Um, a trigger effect is an effect that activates when the card is summoned to the field." Kuraki explained
"Can you give an example." She asked
"The Monarch archetype." Kuraki replied
"Very good." Miss Fujimoto complimented as Kuraki sat back down and buried her head in her arms. She felt someone patting her back, she looked to see Asuka.
"Don't worry, you'll get use to this." Asuka said with a grin.
After class Kuraki was putting her stuff away when Asuka walked up to her.
"So what's your story?" Asuka asked
"Huh!" Kuraki said "There's no story. Why do you ask?"
"Nothing, I like to do this to all the new kids. Can I see your schedule?" Kuraki handed her the schedule, she looked over it and grinned "Looks like we have the same classes, we have free time next so let's get something to eat."
"OK." Kuraki followed Asuka.
Asuka and Kuraki were eating their meals, Kuraki took out her cell phone and started to dial Kurogasa's phone number.
"What are you doing?" Asuka asked
"Oh, I'm calling someone." Kuraki said
A sly grin appeared on Asuka's face "Your boyfriend?"
Kuraki laughed a bit "Yeah." Kuraki hit enter as the phone started to ring
"Hello." Kurogasa said on the other side.
"Hey, how are you doing?" Kuraki asked
"I'm doing alright, my ribs are still healing but other than that I'm fine. So hows your time in Duel Academy?"
"Well it's going alright so far." Kuraki said "I have to go now."
"OK, have a great time. I love you."
"Love you too." Kuraki hung up her cell phone and placed it back in her pocket.
"So what's his name?" Asuka asked
"His name is Kurogasa." Kuraki said as Asuka looked in shock.
"Kurogasa? As in Kurogasa Kururugi?" Asuka asked "The duelist who made it to the finals in the Dragon's Cup?" Kuraki nodded "You my friend are lucky!"
Kuraki started to laugh at Asuka's antics. She noticed a couple of people across from them, when she got a good look at them her eyes grew wide.
"Rai! And Sora!" Kuraki screamed in her head
Asuka noticed Kuraki looked at them "Hey do you know them?"
"Huh! Oh nononononono! They were in the Dragon's Cup along with Kurogasa." Kuraki nervously laughed "Please don't notice me."
The bell rang as Asuka and Kuraki headed back to class. Kuraki accidentally bumped into Sora.
"Hey watch where your going!" She snapped but noticed it was Kuraki "Hey I know you, you were in the tournament me and Rai entered. Kuraki right?"
Kuraki looked at the sky "Damn you god of fate!" Kuraki looked at Sora "That's me, sorry for bumping into you, I wasn't paying attention."
"Don't worry about it." Rai said "Just watch where your going next time."
"Y-Yeah." Rai and Sora walked to there next class
After school was over Asuka was walking with Kuraki back towards Ritsu's house. They were talking about many things. Kuraki noticed the garage door was opened and went to go see what was going on. They saw Ritsu and Kurogasa working on their runners.
"Look who's back." Kurogasa said as he saw Kuraki and Asuka walk into the garage "How was your day?"
"I was nervous as hell." Kuraki said "But when I met Asuka it wasn't all that bad."
"Asuka?" Kurogasa asked
"That's me." Asuka said "I'm Asuka Endou, it's an honor meeting a finalist of the Dragon's Cup." Kurogasa shook her hand. She noticed Ritsu underneath his runner. "Who's that?"
Kurogasa kicked Ritsu "Hey! We have a visitor."
"OW! Still injured here!" Ritsu slid from the underside and stood up. Asuka was completely speechless when she saw him.
"Oh my goodness, your Ritsu Himuro! The winner of the Dragon's Cup!" Asuka was freaking out when she saw Ritsu. "Can I get an Autograph!"
"Asuka." Kuraki pulled her away "Let's not freak out too much."
Asuka pouted "OK."
Kurogasa kissed Kuraki "I'm glad you had a good time." Kurogasa hugged her
"Yeah. I heard from the principle that you called him." Kuraki said
"Heh, well funny story. OW!" Kuraki pulled his ear
"Next time how about a little warning. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get out of this uniform." Kuraki went inside as Kurogasa started to rub his ear.
"I should get going too." Asuka bowed towards them "It was a pleasure meeting you guys." Asuka ran off as well
"She seems nice." Ritsu said "Don't forget your end of the deal."
"Yeah." Kurogasa groaned "Me and my big mouth."
"A deals a deal Kurogasa." Raikou said "You'll be fine."
"Hehe, thanks Raikou." Kurogasa said
