Chapter 84: I've Seen the Light and a Motherly Return

We find Syrus, Ryoko, Hinata, and Max running down towards the infirmary where they finds a group of Ra Yellow and Slifer Red students in front of the door.

One male Ra Yellow said, "Did you hear? Jaden Yuki can't duel anymore."

One male Slifer Red student says, "Yeah. I heard that he can't see his cards anymore."

Syrus yells out, in a serious tone, "Make way! Coming through here everyone!" The Ra and Slifer students look to see Syrus, Ryoko, Hinata, and Max trying to get through them and they were yelling at him until all of them fall over into the infirmary/nurse's office with Max, Ryoko, and Syrus falling down with the students while Hinata use her ninja agility to leap out of the way where Chazz, Bastion, Alexis, Hassleberry, Tyson and his friends, Ranma and his friends, Sayu, Yusuke, his siblings, Kagome, Keiko, Kurama, Kuwabara, Neji, Tenten, Lee, Ino, Sasuke, Sakura, Davis, TK, Kari, Ken, Yolei, Jun, Sora, Matt, Izzy, and Jaden, sitting in a chair in front of Ms. Fontaine and Joe, who was examining him.

Chazz asks, annoyed, "What are all of you, dorks, doing here?"

All of the Ra and Slifer students get to their feet and exclaim, worriedly and in unison, "Chazz!"

Chazz tells them, with a serious tone, "I said, Beat it!" But the group of students stands in place in fear of Chazz and he says, with a tone to scare them off, "Boo!" All of the Slifer and Ra students, other than Syrus and Ryuko, Max, then run off in fear of Chazz.

Tenten says, plainly, "I've got to say this much for him. He really knows how to get rid of a crowd."

Chazz growls, annoyed, "Hey! I heard that!"

Syrus tells Jaden, "Jaden, please tell me that this is some kind of joke! I've heard from someone that knows someone's cousin that told me that you can't duel anymore! Tell me that this is some kind of rumor!"

Chazz tells Syrus, "When they said that you hit puberty that was a rumor. This isn't." Chazz takes Jaden's deck from his black coat, hands it to Syrus, and says, "According to Jaden, all of his cards are blank. Pitch white blank."

Syrus exclaims, shocked, "This is terrible! But I don't see anything wrong with them."

Ken says, seriously, "Neither do I. To me, his cards are the same as they ever been."

Kari says, nodding his head, "Same here."

Keiko states, with a plain and worried tone, "And it is the same with me. I looked at every single card and nothing was wrong with them."

Max yells out, seriously, "Then what's the problem?!"

Sasuke says, with a plain and serious tone, "Simple, Max. The problem with Jaden and not the cards."

Ms. Fontaine tells Syrus, nodding her head in agreement, "Sasuke is right, Syrus. The cards aren't the problem. During Jaden's last duel, something happened to him."

Hilary asks, curiously, "Is there anything we can do for him?"

Ms. Fontaine replies, "I wish that was possible, Hilary. Until we figured what happened to him during that duel, I don't think there is a way any of us can help him."

Jaden rises to his feet and says, "Oh, well. What are you going to do?" Jaden goes to his feet, takes his deck from Syrus, puts it in his card pouch attached to his belt, and starts to walk off.

Hikari yells out, angrily, "Damn it! That SOB, Aster Phoenix, is responsible for this! He's going to pay for this!"

Bastion tells Hikari, seriously and logically, "Kari, we aren't sure that Phoenix is responsible for Jaden's condition."

Ranma yells at Bastion, with his serious tone, "Bastion, the evidence is there!"

Sayu says, seriously, "No joke! Jaden was just fine until that rotten Phoenix got into his head and after he lost to that creep! I just wish he was here so I could show him, how I think when you mess with one of my friends!"

Sakura nods her head and says, seriously, "I agree both Ranma and Sayu. The evidence points to ass, Aster Phoenix."

Sasuke says, with a serious tone, "I'm not so sure."

Sakura asks Sasuke, "What do you mean, Sasuke?"

Sasuke tells Sakura, with a serious and plain tone, "I don't think that Aster Phoenix has the power to do what he did to Jaden. A greater evil must have been at work, here."

Tyson yells out, seriously, "You mean that a greater evil jerk gave Aster the power to do that?!"

Sasuke thinks in his mind, seriously, "Or used Aster to get to Jaden since they knew he or she would be dueling him! But we would need more information to make sure!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

The next two days, both Tyson and Max were promoted to Ra Yellow, after Alexis dueled her brother, Atticus, who got himself into the 'dueling pop star' thing that Alexis was strongly against. Right now, we find ourselves in Duel Academy's classroom as one of the teachers was calling for roll, but when he called for Jaden, there was no answer, since Jaden wasn't even in class.

Syrus sighs heavily and he says, solemnly, "Poor Guy!"

Hassleberry snorted, sighs louder than Syrus, he says, in a fake solemn tone, "Poor Guy!"

From the Obelisk Blue corner, Yusuke could hear the sighs as he turns to see Syrus and Hassleberry starting a usual 'I'm Jaden's best friend' argument. Yusuke thinks in his mind, annoyed, "Oh brother!"

Ryoko and Mia, who was sitting in front of Syrus and Hassleberry, could actually hear them sighing and Ryoko says, annoyed, "Give a break!"

Mia says, drolly, "Another 'I'm Jaden's best friend' argument. It's strange that they're actually fighting over a guy."

Syrus sighs even louder and he says, "I miss him!"

Hassleberry snorts again, sighs even louder himself, and he says, "I miss him!"

Ryoko says, annoyed, "Here we go again!"

Syrus yells at Hassleberry, annoyed, "Pipe down, Sarge! I'm way more depressed than you!"

Hassleberry yells at Syrus, seriously, "No, I'm depressed than you!"

Syrus yells out, seriously, "No, I am!"

Hassleberry calls out, seriously, "No, I am!"

Syrus yells out, seriously, "I've known Jaden since day one! He's my best friend! He's my hero! He's the hot fudge on a sundae that is my life!"

Mia calls out, annoyed, "Oh god! Shut up! That came out wrong is so many places!"

Hassleberry jumps up and he says, "Is that right!? Then, we are you still here in this class, a true friend will be there for him!" Hassleberry walks away from his seat, walks up the stairs and accidentally bumps into Bastion, who was walking downwards.

Bastion says, "Pardon me."

Hassleberry says, seriously, "Out of my way, I've got a best friend to check up on!"

At the Obelisk corner, Yusuke and Kagome shook their heads in disappointment. Yusuke says, in a cold plain tone, "How pathetic is that?"

Kagome says, in a cold droll tone, "I don't know, you tell me! And here I thought that the time that Chazz dueled Alexis for her love was really pathetic."

Yusuke tells Kagome, in a cold plain tone, "No! That was really pathetic! Even more…"

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, darkly, "You want to know what's more pathetic, Urameshi! You and your whore cousin!"

Yusuke and Kagome whip their heads to see the Tucker twins, Mina and Kino, looking at them with dark sly smiles on their lips.

Yusuke says, in a cold snarl, "You…you're gonna pay for beating us up!"

Mina says, with a dark taunting tone, "Oh what's wrong!? Did we hurt your little feelings!?"

Kagome tells Mina, in a cold angered tone, "Believe me! The only people are going to be hurt is you, bitch!"

Mina says, with a dark sly smile, "In case, you've forgotten, little priestess, your little priestess magic can't hurt me! Face it, Higurashi, you and your weakling cousin are as much of a threat to us as a newborn pup!"

Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone, "What's that, Blondie!?"

Kino says, in a dark serious tone, "You heard my sister, Urameshi! By the time, we're done with you two, you'll be at our mercy!"

Yusuke says, in a cold sneer, "In your dreams, asshole! You got lucky, but next time you won't!"

Kino says, with a dark sly grin, "You keep telling yourself that! You're supposed to be a Ma-zoku and yet, you got your ass handed to you on a silver platter! You're a failure as a Ma-zoku and a half-demon."

Yusuke says, in a cold angered snarl, "Why you…!? You're so lucky that I'm not the same fool that I once was, otherwise, your ass will be on the ground faster then that fucking dog falls to the ground, wherever Kagome says 'sit'!"

Mina says, with a dark sly smile, "Oh and by the way, did you know that Inuyasha on the island as few days ago!?"

Kagome yells out, coldly, "You lie! I would have sensed that dog a mile away!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Same here!"

Kino says, with a dark sly smile, "It seems that your senses are as limited as we thought!"

Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone, "Shut up, bastard!"

Kino says, with a dark sneer, "Or what, asshole!?"

Mina tells Kino, in a dark serious tone, "Kino, don't waste your time with that peon! He's totally below us to deal with anyways as well as his pathetic excuse of a priestess of a cousin."

Kagome yells out, in a cold angered tone, "Shut it, bitch! It's because of that damn Demonic Priestess magic that you're talking so big, without it, you'll be at our heels and gone straight to Hell where you belong!"

Mina says, in a dark sly sneer, "Funny, isn't Hell is where you belong!"

Kagome says, in a cold snarl, "Just wait! All that trash talk will go back to your mouth!"

Mina says, with a dark sly smile, "But alas, I'm talking to trash!"

Kagome yells out, in a cold angered tone, "Okay, that's it!" Yusuke gets in front of Kagome, who was ready to attack Mina, and he says, in a cold serious tone, "Whoa! Kagome, she's just trying to get to your head! In the end, she and her brother won't be laughing for long!"

Kino says, with a dark sly grin, "Spoken by a true loser!"

Yusuke yells at Kino, coldly, "We'll see who's the loser is, asshole!"

Kino says, in a dark serious tone, "Yeah, we'll see!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Outside, we find Jaden, in his usual spot where he thinks and he thinks in his mind, solemnly, "Three days, since I lost to Aster and I still can't see my cards!" Jaden looks in the sky as he saw an image of Winged Kuriboh and he says, perplexed, "Kuriboh?"

Jaden gets out his deck, but sees that they're still pitch white, and he sighs solemnly.

Just then, a familiar male voice shouts out, in a familiar snobbish tone, "Quit moping already!" Jaden turns to see Chazz next to him and he asks, curiously, "Chazz, what are you doing here?"

Chazz tells Jaden, in his usual snobbish tone, "I came here to think alright! Besides, I sick of everyone going on and on and on about how everyone is worried about you! Everywhere that I go is Jaden, Jaden, Jaden! Anyways, is it true that you can't talk to your monsters?"

Jaden says, solemnly, "I guess."

Chazz yells at Jaden, annoyed, "Snap out of it, man! And stop bumming everyone out!"

Jaden says, solemnly, "Listen, Chazz, dueling is all I ever cared about and now, I can't do the thing that I love most!"

Chazz yells out, seriously, "I know what you need! Let's duel now! It's the only way you can get over this!"

Jaden gets on his feet and starts to walk away from Chazz. Chazz yells out to Jaden, "Come on! I'll even go easy on you! Don't walk away! Let's get our game on!"

Jaden sends a small wave and he says, solemnly, "Maybe later, Chazz!" Jaden walks away from Chazz and Chazz says, looking at Jaden's departing back, "What a loser!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

At Sartorius's lair, we find Sartorius having four cards on the table and he turns one card over to be the Wheel of Fortune.

Sartorius thinks in his mind, seriously, "The Wheel of Fortune! It seems that Jaden is more powerful than I imaged! I for told Aster's victory, but Jaden's response was quite unexpected! For once, I've infused Aster's monsters with my own energy, Jaden's soul should have been wiped clean! This is similar to what I had to go through with Yusuke and Kagome, a year ago! Upon defeat, Jaden should have been my eternal servant, though his spirit was weakened, he's in control of his soul. However, for someone like Jaden, it'll be impossible to tend with the same matters that I did with Yusuke and Kagome to Jaden, since I don't know which person is Jaden's weakness. I'll intend to the matter of Jaden later, while he searches his part for answers, I'll set my sights on the next few 'Chosen Duelists', namely one of them, Daisuke Motomiya and perhaps, another that's predictable." Sartorius turns over another card, which was The Fool. Sartorius thinks in his mind, curiously, "The Fool, the pilgrim, the wanderer. It seems that there's someone who shares the same gift as the 'Chosen Duelists' only his soul is much weaker." Sartorius turns over another card, which was The Hangman.

Just then, the speaker calls out, "Master Sartorius, we're arriving Duel Academy!"

Sartorius stands up and he says, with an evil sly smile, "Excellent."

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Back in Dartz's hangout, we find Dartz's associates walking towards him, after calling them before him.

Naruto asks, curiously, "You called for us, Master Dartz."

Dartz says, with a serious tone, "Yes, Mister Uzumaki, I've recruited another member to carry out our plans to rebuilt paradise as it once was."

Holly asks, curiously, "Who?"

Just then, a female voice calls out, "He's talking about me, Holly." Inuyasha, Melody, and Holly gasp in shock of that voice and Inuyasha says, shocked, "That voice…"

Melody says, surprised, "It can't be!" Everyone turns to see a female figure walking towards them. This female had Inuyasha's and Melody's long human black hair to the mid waist and dark violet eyes. She wore a black kimono that was covered in a black robe.

Tai asks, curiously, "Who's the lady!?"

Inuyasha says, amazed, "M…Mother!"

Melody says, surprised, "It really is her!" That's right, the female is Inuyasha's, Melody's, and Holly's human mother, Izayoi, however her eyes were glowing evil red with the mark of the Seal of Orichalcos.

Tyler says, shocked, "That's Inuyasha's and his sisters' mother!"

Allie says, in a dark serious tone, "But she was dead!"

Light tells Allie, in a dark cold serious tone, "Remember, I was dead, but I think Master Dartz had received her from the dead the same way that I was received."

Izayoi says, with a dark smile, "Inuyasha, Melody, Holly, the three of you have gotten bigger since I've seen you last."

Dartz tells Inuyasha and his sisters, "I've revived your mother so she can teach you secrets of her home village's jutsus in our quest."

Izayoi tells Inuyasha, in a dark serious tone, "Inuyasha, Master Dartz told me that the one, you loved betrayed you for power by a madman that went by the name of Sartorius."

Inuyasha nods his head and he says, in a dark plain tone, "That's right! We're here to destroy all evil in this world and make it a true paradise with no crime and evils like Naraku and Sartorius."

Izayoi says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Then, I'll train the three of you and teach you, everything that I know." Izayoi says, with a dark smile, "I'll be like I'm making it up to the three of you for being gone all these years ago."

Melody nods her head and she says, with a dark cold sly smile, "Yeah, we'll like that!"

Izayoi says, with an evil sly smile, "Then, we'll teach that little bitch a lesson that it's not nice to play with my son's emotions like that. She's human and all humans and demons are nothing but filth! Your father wasn't never like those demons our time."

Naruto says, with a dark sly smile, "Now, you're talking my language!"

Michael yells out, darkly, "Yeah, down with all human trash!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Back on Academy Island, we find Chancellor Crowler and Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte dashing towards the harbor, after hearing that Sartorius was coming to the island, believing that he'll turn the students into 'stars'.

Crowler yells out, "That must be Aster's manager! He said that I'll be stopping by, but I didn't know he meant today, I would have gotten this trench coat to the dry cleaners!"

Bonaparte calls out, weakly, "If this required exercise, then I would have gotten on the treadmill weeks ago!"

The two got the harbor as Sartorius's plane had arrived, with Sartorius, wearing a white suit, on top of the plane.

Crowler yells out, excitedly, "Welcome!"

Bonaparte says, with a smile, "You must be starved from your trip! I make a divine chicken funchez!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "Thank you, but, I travel with a chef."

Crowler says, with a kiss-up tone, "Mister Sartorius, welcome! If I may ask, what brings you to our academy?"

Sartorius replies, with a plain tone, "Well, I managed several top ranking professional duelists and I'm always looking for fresh talent."

Crowler says, with a smile, "Yes, you turn duelists into stars. We're big fans for yours."

Bonaparte says, with a plain tone, "Yeah, big fans, huge!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "Thank you, as you know, Aster has been making appearance, world wide. He's booked solid for the next three years, so I decided to take on a new client."

Crowler says, with a smile, "Terrific! I'll help you! I'll start with a guided tour!"

Bonaparte says, in a serious tone, "He doesn't need a tour! He needs a list of all of our top duelists! I'm telling you, Sartorius, some of these kids duel like better! So, what do you say?"

Sartorius replies, with an evil sly smile, "That's nice! But, I won't be needing any assistance!"

Bonaparte asks, curiously, "But, why not?"

Crowler says, in a begging tone, "Yes, we're at your disposal, so please dispose away!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "Thanks, but I've always made it a point to work alone! Now, if you'll excuse me, there's work to be done. It's been a pleasure, gentlemen." Sartorius walks away from Crowler and Bonaparte.

Bonaparte calls out, "Don't be a strange!"

Crowler yells out, "Call me!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

At the Slifer Red dorm, we find Yusuke, Kagome, Keiko, Alexis, Chazz, Hassleberry, Jenny, Neji, Hinata, Bastion, Jesse, Tyson, who was wearing a Ra Yellow uniform, Sayu, Davis, Ranma, and Kenny within the Slifer Red cafeteria, helping around while trying to come up with a plan to help Jaden.

Syrus's voice calls out, "Call the coast guard! Call the marines!"

Ryoko's voice yells out to Syrus, "I'm going to call the ambulance if you don't shut up, twerp!"

Just then the doors to the Slifer Red cafeteria are thrown open, everyone looks to see Syrus and Ryoko, nearly out of breath, and Keiko asks, concerned, "Guys, what's wrong?!"

Ryoko yells out, horrified, "Jaden! He's gone!"

Everyone gasps out in shock and Yusuke yells out, shocked, "What!?"

Alexis asks, "Guys, are you sure?!"

Syrus calls out, seriously, "Yes, we're sure! He grabbed all of his stuff and left!"

Bastion says, in a logical tone, "He might still be on the island."

Keiko says, worriedly, "If he is challenged to a duel, he won't be in the right condition to duel."

Hassleberry yells out, seriously, "Troops! We have to find him! Search and rescue time!"

Neji tells Hinata, "We should tell Sasuke, Sakura, and the others about this!"

Hinata snorts and she says, "Whatever?" Neji sighs in disappointment.

Tyson tells the others, "I'll get my other friends."

Bastion nods his head and says, "Good idea, Tyson. Let's get to work as soon as possible."

Sayu yells out, seriously, "Right!" Soon after, Neji and Hinata use their ninja speed and agility to get to the Obelisk Blue dorm.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In a few moments later, Yusuke and Kagome were at the beach and Yusuke yells out, "Jaden! Hey Jay, where are you!?"

Kagome calls out, worriedly, "Jaden! Jaden, where are you!? If this is your idea of a joke, then it's not funny!"

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, "Did you guys find him!?" Yusuke and Kagome turns to see Hikari, Keiko, Yuka, and Ayumi running towards them.

Kagome replies, in a plain tone, "No, we didn't! We even went to the place where he thinks, but he's not there!"

Keiko asks, worriedly, "Where do you suppose he went?"

Yusuke tells Keiko, in a cold nasty tone with a cold harsh glare, "If we knew that then, we wouldn't be still looking for him! Don't you know anything!?"

Keiko winces from her ex-boyfriend's cold harsh glare and Hikari says, not wanting to start a fight, "Let's keep looking!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Good idea, let's Kagome!" Yusuke and Kagome runs off, leaving Hikari and Keiko behind.

Hikari says, with a solemn sigh, "I'm sorry that you had to hear that, Kei."

Keiko shakes her head and she says, "It's okay, Kari. I just don't know how much of Yusuke brainwashing and the coldness in his words, that I can take."

Yuka asks, "You don't think that Sartorius had something to do with it!"

Keiko gasps in shock as her eyes turned demonic yellow to the three girls' horrors and Ayumi tells Yuka, annoyed, "Nice going, Yuka!"

Keiko yells out, in a dark angered tone, "If that asshole so much of touches Jaden, then THERE WON'T BE A PLACE FOR HIM TO HIDE!" Keiko stomps on the ground, creating a shockwave that pushes Hikari a bit.

Hikari calls out to Keiko, "Keiko, calm down! We'll find Jaden to make sure that Sartorius doesn't get his hands on him."

Keiko seethes as her eyes turned from demonic yellow to usual brown. Keiko says, almost croaky, "I don't think that I can handle Jaden being brainwashed! I've already had to deal with Yusuke and Kagome, I don't want the same thing happening to my brother."

Hikari places her heads onto Keiko's shoulders and she tells Keiko, "Don't worry, Kei! We're not going to allow that asshole to get a hold on Jay and we'll get Yusuke and Kagome back from that brainwashing freak."

Yami Keiko tells Keiko, in a dark cold plain tone, "There's one way! Let me take over and we'll get them back!"

Keiko tells Yami Keiko, in a serious tone, "No! I'm not! I remember what you did when you were in control!"

Yami Keiko says, in a dark cold serious tone, "Hey, those assholes deserved and you know it! They broke you and Yusuke up and they deserve justice!"

Keiko says, in a serious tone, "You're right! They deserve justice, but not in the same way that you make it! I'm doing it my way! I'm in control remember!"

Yami Keiko tells Keiko, in a dark serious tone, "Not for long! I will get out again!"

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

In the evening hours, we find Sayu Yagami walking around by herself in the forest on Duel Academy as she looks for Jaden. Her three childhood friends, Ranma, Davis, and Tyson, worried for her safety didn't want for her to go out alone, but Sayu assured them that nothing will happen to her and that she is a big girl and she insisted on that fact. Knowing their friend can be just as stubborn as the three of them, they allowed Sayu to go off as long as she keeps her PDA active at all times. Now, we find Sayu looking around and calling out for Jaden.

Sayu calls out, worriedly, "Jaden! Jaden, where are you?! If this is your idea of a joke, then you need new sense of humor!" Sayu thinks in her mind, worriedly, "Where can he be? I've already lost my father and Light, I don't to have to lose Jay too! My friends and my family are all that I have left! They would find me if I were in danger!"

Just then, there was a ruffle in the bushes which got Sayu's attention. As the ruffle continues, Sayu walks slowly and she says, worriedly, "Jaden! Jaden, is that you!?" Just then, from the bushes came out to Sayu's surprise as Daisuke 'Davis' Motomiya.

Sayu says, with a sigh, "Davis!"

Davis says, in a plain tone, "I see that you didn't find Jaden yet, huh?"

Sayu shook her head and she says, "No yet! There's no trace of him as if he vanished. I really hope that he's okay."

Davis says, with a smile, "I know! Why don't we just look for him together?"

Sayu caught a red hue on her face and she says, stuttering, "Oh…sure!" Soon after, Davis and Sayu walked deeper into the forest. It was a long walk, while looking around, and Sayu breaks the silence, asking, "I was wondering, Daisuke! Why were you, Jun, Kari, and TK are so cold to Mister Ishida and Miss Takenouchi?"

Davis says, in a snarl, "Let's just say thanks them, a good friend of mine had left us and hurt my sister, a year ago."

Sayu asks, curiously, "What happened?"

Davis tells Sayu, in a serious tone, "Well, a year ago, my friend, Taichi Kamiya had dated Miss Takenouchi, while Jun dated Mister Ishida, before Mister Ishida and Miss Takenouchi were dating and broke up gently. Tai, for short, was running late for a date that he and Miss Takenouchi had set up, but from our of nowhere, some bimbo from Tai's class in college came up to him, just as he was going to the restaurant for the date, kissed him on the lips, mainly forcing herself onto him."

Sayu says, seriously, "You mean raping him! That's sick!"

Davis says, in a serious tone, "Wait, until you hear the rest, Miss Takenouchi saw this, believing that Tai was cheating on her, which if she had some common scene, she'd know that Tai would never do that to anyone!"

Sayu tells Davis, seriously, "Don't I'm sure that it wasn't Miss Takenouchi's fault!"

Davis says, seriously, "Well, I wasn't finished yet. The next day, Miss Takenouchi broke up with Tai, believing that he's not trustworthy without giving him a chance to explain. Then, one night, Miss Takenouchi was seen with Mister Ishida getting into his apartment, kissing each other, giving Tai a broken heart. Tai ran home broken hearted and told me, Kari, and TK everything. I was so angry with those two and Matt, for cheating on my sister, since she was dating her at the time. TK stopped respecting Matt as a person or a friend, but just nothing but a brother. When Jun found out, she broke up with Matt after slapping him in the face, which he deserved. Later, we find out that Tai had left without a word, we looked everywhere for him, but not a trace."

Sayu says, horrified, "That's awful!"

Davis says, in a serious tone, "That's why I can't stand those two, right now! It's thanks to them, that Tai's not here anymore! Now, I'm trying to find Jaden, while hoping that he's alive."

Sayu says, solemnly, "Sorry about your friend." Davis notices the worry look on Sayu's face. Davis asks Sayu, "You're worried about Jaden?"

Sayu nods her head and she says, "Yeah, he's more than my friend, him, along with you, Tyson, and Ranma are like my second family!" Sayu started forming tears from her eyes and she says, solemnly, "I've already lost my first one, but I can't bear to lose a second family member again."

Davis grabs Sayu's arms, pulls her close to him, as he looked at her in the eye, and he says, seriously, "Sayu, we'll find Jaden! Don't worry! I promise that we won't rest until we find Jay and you know how good I am on my promises!" Davis carefully wipes the tears from Sayu's eyes.

Sayu smiles, nodding her head, and she says, "Right!" Sayu's cheeks flare up at Davis's touch and she says, a bit nervously, "Uh Davis, you can let go of my arms, now."

Davis realized that his right hand was on grip with Sayu's left arm and he jumps back as he lets go of Sayu's arm with a red hue on his face. Davis says, a bit nervously, "Sorry!"

Sayu giggles and she says, with a smile, "You're right, Daisuke! We can't give up! Jay has to be still on the island, it's not that he can swim off the island."

Davis says, with a smile, "That's right!"

Sayu steps closer to Davis and she says, with a smile, "Thank you, Daisuke!" Sayu then unexpectedly kisses Davis's left cheek, causing his cheeks to blush red.

Davis says, a bit nervously, "No problem! Now, let's find Jay!" Soon after, the two left the area, with Davis placing his hand over the place where Sayu kissed him with a smile on his face.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

With Yusuke and Kagome, the two didn't have any luck finding Jaden at all. Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, "Did you guys have any luck!?"

Yusuke and Kagome turns to see Catherine and Kelly running towards them. Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Nothing!" Just then a loud male scream comes into Yusuke's and Kagome's ears and they gasps as they recognizes that scream.

Kagome calls out, stunned, "That's Chazz!" Immediately, Kagome races off to the source of the scream to find Chazz.

(A short time soon after; elsewhere within the forest)

Kagome quickly shuffles around through the forest on the lookout for Chazz Princeton when she heard his scream and she looks around for any sign of him.

Kagome calls out, concerned, "Chazz! Chazz! Where are you, Chazz?! Chazz?! This had better not be a joke!"

Just then a deep male voice calls out, "Looking for someone, my dear." Kagome turns to the source of the voice and sees Sartorius, in his normal clothing, looking straight at her.

Kelly says, shocked, "It's Saiou!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Actually, he goes by Sartorius now! Saiou was just an alias to get him away from pacifier breath's tool brigade."

Sartorius says, with an evil smile, "I know that the two of you are currently looking for your friends, Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton."

Kagome asks, curiously, "Yeah, do you have any idea where they were?"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "Well, I know that your friend, Chazz Princeton is well, since I helped him realize his destiny."

Catherine asks, "What does that mean?"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "All of you trust me, do you not?"

Yusuke says, with a cold sly smile, "Of course, we trust you, Sartorius! It's thanks to you, that we've haven't been in any emotional pain for a whole pain."

Kagome says, in a cold annoyed tone, "If you call almost getting raped by one of your so-called friends not emotional pain."

Yusuke says, nervously, "Oh right! Sorry Kagome!"

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "For what I'm going to tell the four of you may shock you. I've gotten some terrible news about your friend, Jaden Yuki."

Yusuke asks, in a cold anxious tone, "Well, where is he?"

Sartorius says, with a serious tone, "Jaden is unharmed, however, Koenma has recruited Jaden as spirit detective of the earth."

The four gasp in shock and Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone, "What!? No way! That fucking pacifier sucking twerp has recruited our pal as his demon slaying monkey!"

Sartorius nods his head and he says, "I'm afraid so, Mister Urameshi. Plus, as if right now, Jaden's spirit power is around S class."

Kagome yells out, shocked, "No way! Jaden can't be that strong!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Even though Jaden went through 'Grandma's Evil Boot Camp', there's no way that he's power can be that much."

Sartorius tells Yusuke, "Jaden has gone through Genkai's training regime and he went to a room where it's similar to the time with Demon World. If you stay in there for a year and when you come out, a while week as passed. Yes, Genkai did have this room."

Yusuke asks, curiously, "Then, why didn't Grandma didn't tell me or my sisters about it?"

Sartorius replies, "I'm not so sure! However, I must warn the three of you of a huge threat coming to get in our way."

Yusuke asks, curiously, "Who!?"

Sartorius replies, "I don't know, but I'll need your help to defeated it, will you all help me!" Sartorius's eyes glowed purple as Yusuke's, Kagome's, Catherine's, and Kelly's eyes went dull and returned to normal.

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "Hell yeah, we'll help you!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "It's the least we can do for helping us through our pain. What do you want us to do?"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly smile, "Now, I want all four of you to see the Light!" Sartorius's eyes had soon glowed purple and Yusuke, Kagome, Catherine, and Kelly yells out in shock as their whole world went white. The four then slumps to the floor and laid motionless for a few seconds. They got out with their eyes with a hint of coldness in them.

Yusuke says, in a cold and emotionless tone, "Master Sartorius, we're at your services!"

Catherine says, in an emotionless tone, "Thank you, sir! For showing us the Light!"

Sartorius says, with an evil sly grin, "It's my pleasure, Miss Maxwell! Now, I want all of you to bring the 'Chosen Duelists' to the Light, including Jaden Yuki and another Daisuke Motomiya."

Kagome says, in a cold curious tone, "Jaden and his childhood friend are 'Chosen Duelists' like us!"

Sartorius nods his head and he says, "Yes, Miss Higurashi, however I've got some other disturbing news more especially for Mister Urameshi."

Yusuke asks, in a cold curious tone, "Well, what is it, sir!?"

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "As you know that the other 'Chosen Duelists' are Jaden Yuki and Daisuke Motomiya, but the other group of 'Chosen Duelists' are Genki Akaya, Takeru Takashi, Ranma Saotome, Tyson Granger, Kai Hiwatari, Sayu Yagami, Sasuke Uchiha, Hikari Urameshi, Kira Urameshi, and last is Keiko Yukimura."

The four gasps in shock and Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone, "What!? No way! That traitorous bitch is one of the 'Chosen Duelists' that we need!"

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "I'm afraid so, Mister Urameshi, but her destiny is unclear whether she'll be at our side or just get in the way."

Yusuke says, with a cold snarl, "I can answer that just fine, Master. Keiko will stand in our way just like she has always done! That wench loves to mess up our plans and uses people for her own fucking purposes! Like what her fucking boyfriend did to Syrus, in which I don't understand why they still be so friendly with that wench!"

Sartorius tells Yusuke, with a plain tone, "You might be right, Mister Urameshi."

Kelly asks, in a cold plain tone, "Hey wasn't that wolf demon, Koga, was seen on the island?"

Kagome yells out, in a cold serious tone, "Yeah, that fleabag is still here! He attacked me, Yusuke, and Catherine!"

Sartorius gives a rare surprised look on his face and he says, "Koga was here!"

Yusuke says, in a cold serious tone, "That's right! It was strange that wolf only plucked the hairs off of mine and Kagome."

Sartorius thinks in his mind, surprised, "Koga couldn't have been on this island or attacked Yusuke, Kagome, and Catherine, earlier that much I'm sure of. Could it been a ninja that attacked Yusuke, Kagome, and Catherine? Or could it be…" Sartorius asks, curiously, "Out of curiosity, any of you sense anything from Koga that would have been different?"

Kagome blinked twice and she says, in a cold plain tone, "Now, that you mention it! That mangy wolf was carrying a lot of darkness with him, which is unfitting for someone like him!"

Sartorius says, in a serious tone, "I can tell you all that the person that attacked you wasn't Koga at all!"

Kagome says, perplexed, "It wasn't?"

Sartorius shakes his and he says, "No, but I blame it had to be a ninja imposing himself as Koga with a transformation jutsu."

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone, "It couldn't be a ninja, since I've since demonic aura that's similar to a…" Just then, a thought came into Kagome's head and Kagome then says, in a cold angered tone, "Why those…?"

Catherine asks, "What is it?"

Kagome replies, in a cold serious tone, "I may be jumping into conclusions but I'm getting the feeling that those two twins, Mina and Kino may have something to do with this! What if they've they gotten some ninja training as well?"

Yusuke yells out, in a cold angered tone, "If it is them, then it's ass-kicking time!"

Sartorius tells them, "I'm going to have you all investigate this, while Mister Urameshi brings Daisuke Motomiya into the light."

Yusuke nods his head and he says, with a cold sly smile, "Yes, sir!"

The following morning, we find our Ronin Warriors, with Rowen, wearing a male Obelisk Blue uniform now, Hikari, Keiko, Mina, Kino, Kira, Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Sasuke, Sakura, Ganryu, Tiara, Karin, and our five younger Digidestined, Jun, Sayu, Ranma, Akane, Ukyo, and Tyson and the rest of the Bladebreakers, with Max wearing a male Ra Yellow uniform, walking towards the Slifer Red dorm to check on Jaden's friends, Alexis, Hassleberry, Syrus, Bastion, and Chazz to see how they are doing with the 'loss' of Jaden.

Sakura says, worriedly, "I'm worried. We look all night for Jaden and we didn't find him at all."

Ken says, with a serious tone, "It is possible that Jaden found a way off the island."

Sasuke tells Ken, with a serious tone, "That's a good possibility, Ken."

Akane asks, worriedly, "Do you think that Jaden will be all right, Ranma?"

Ranma tells Akane, reassuringly, "Don't worry, Akane. I'm sure that Jay is just fine. He has faced together things before! When he comes back, I think that he will be stronger than ever!"

Ganryu asks, curiously, "Do you think that the others are okay?"

Sakura tells Ganryu, "Ganryu, they lost their best friend. How do you think they are feeling right now?"

Tyson looks ahead of him and says, surprised, "Maybe you should see for yourself." Everyone looks to where Tyson is looking and they are shocked to see Chazz wearing a white with whitish-blue version of the male Obelisk Blue uniform while Yusuke, Kagome, Catherine, Kelly, Naruto, and Hinata are looking at him with them looking at him perplexed.

Hilary states, perplexed, "I didn't know that white was in style now."

Kai says, in his usual tone, "That's not it, Hilary!"

Tyson asks, "What do you mean, Kai?"

Kai replies, in a serious tone, "Meaning Princeton got a new wardrobe!"

Ukyo asks Kai, "Is this allowed in the school's dress code?"

Ray states, perplexed, "What dress code? They always allow Chazz to wear that black uniform from North Academy when he was on their side."

Kira tells Ray, seriously, "Good point, Ray."

Chazz turns around to see the group and says, with a cold snobbish tone, "Well, if it isn't the rest of the dork patrol?"

Tiara says, drolly, "Nice to see you, too."

Max asks, seriously, "What's with the weird white outfit?"

Hikari tells Chazz, with a serious tone, "It isn't labor day, Princeton!"

Chazz snickers and says, with a cold sly grin, "You might think it weird now, but you will be wearing white soon enough."

Karin says, a bit nervously, "Sorry, I usually don't wear clothes not in fashion."

Yolei tells Karin, nodding her head in agreement, "No joke, girlfriend."

Chazz replies, with a cold sly grin, "Oh, your opinion will soon change…when you see the light." Chazz then gives his typical laugh and walks away from the group.

Hilary says, plainly, "All right. He has gone from a jerk to just plain nuts!"

Tyson nods his head and says, "No kidding, Hilary! Who or what messed up his brain? Not that he had much to being with."

Ranma, Ukyo, Akane, Davis, TK, Tiara, Karin, Ganryu, Kurama, and Hiei look at Chazz with intense stares in their eyes and Kurama thinks in his mind, "I'm getting a weird feeling from Chazz Princeton and I'm not sure that it is a good thing. We had better keep an eye on him."

Keiko thinks in her mind, "That aura!"

Yami Keiko's voice calls out, in a dark cold serious tone, "Damn it! It's that aura! Chazz Princeton is developing that same aura from Yusuke, Kagome, Catherine, and Kelly!"

Keiko looks at Yusuke and Kagome, she gasps in horror, and she thinks in her mind, "Oh my god! Yusuke, Kagome, their auras…what has that monster done to them!?"

Karin thinks in her mind, horrified as she looks at Kagome, "Oh no! Kagome, Yusuke, they're producing evil auras!"

Just then, Dragoon's voice boomed in Tyson's head, "Tyson, I'm sensing some negative energy from Chazz Princeton!"

Just then, Dranzer's voice boomed in Kai's mind, "The same with me!"

Kai asks Dranzer, mentally, "What do you mean?"

Dragoon says, "We, Driger and Decrial don't know about it, but in the meantime keep an eye on Chazz."

Kagome tells her friends, with a sly grin, "Guess he totally lost it!"

Yusuke says, with a sly smile, "Yeah, I mean without Jaden, he can't get back on top since he can't duel him! But with Chazz, who knows?"

Ranma tells Yusuke, with a sly smile, "No kidding, Yusuke! That guy is wackier than a fruit cake!"

Sakura tells Ranma, rolling her eyes, "You're telling us, Ranma." However, Yusuke and Kagome turn their heads to make sure that Kurama and the others don't notice the cold gleams in their eyes.

Sartorius's voice booms in their minds, "Excellent work, my friends. You need to make sure that your friends don't know that you have seen the truth about the world until the time is right! Destiny will tell us when we need to show the world the light."

Yusuke replies, with a cold sly tone on his lips and telepathically, "Don't worry, Master Sartorius!"

Kagome says, in a cold serious tone and telepathically, "Chazz is fooling them that he has become a total fool and he is waiting for your command to commence with the operation!"

Sartorius tells Yusuke and Kagome, telepathically, "Good. Now, keep an eye out for Jaden Yuki. He is a Chosen Duelist like you the two of you as well as Catherine and Kelly and vital to the plans to help the whole world sees the light."

Kagome replies, telepathically and with a cold tone, "Yes, sir."

Yusuke tells Sartorius, telepathically and with a cold serious tone, "As for Davis, he'll be seeing the Light as well, right away! I won't lose! Destiny will be on my side!"

Sartorius tells Yusuke, telepathically, "You have learned well, Yusuke. Now, remember not to draw any attention to yourself and wait until destiny tells us the time is right."

Yusuke replies, telepathically and with a cold serious tone, "Yes, Master Sartorius. You have shown us that choice is an illusion and nothing can change our fates. My friends will learn that lesson soon enough and I'm sure that they will be grateful to aid you on your mission, sir." Yusuke's and Kagome's cold and sly smiles become their regular smiles while she tries to hide the cold glint in her eyes.

However, Kurama, Ranma, Akane, Ukyo, and Sasuke 'sense' something isn't right with Catherine, Kelly, Kagome, and Yusuke and Ranma thinks in his mind, "Why am I getting a bad feeling about those four? Well, they're not acting weird. Must be my imagination! But why can't I shake off this bad feeling?"

Yusuke, Kagome, Catherine, and Kelly sends cold glares at Mina and Kino, as the twins returns it to them with dark glares as well, knowing the war for the world had just begun…
