Authors note:

This will be a short chapter, because there is no duel here, just the gang hanging out on the beach.

Answering the reviews from the previous chapter:

triscythe59: Oh don't worry, man. Those brothers will get bashed heavily in this fic and later down in this season, and possibly in the later seasons.

"So…what am I seeing exactly?" asked the new Slifer Red, Chazz, towards Syrus.

It was a Saturday in Duel Academy, where it was extremely hot outside, and the staff decided to change sandwich day to another day.

What Chazz was seeing was that both Jaden and Celina were on a cart, fishing for an Eggwich sandwich, the best one by far. They were not happy that they keep getting horrible sandwiches almost every other week.

Last week, Jaden pulled a sock out of a sandwich while Celina got worms inside of it. How did Seto Kaiba even allow this is a miracle in itself.

"They are trying to get a Golden Eggwich from the crate." answered Syrus as Chazz clicked his tongue.

"Gotcha, gotcha."

They are all following what the Golden Eggwich of Ra said to them, look for a medium sized wrapper, not too big or too small, and once they grab it, squish it to see if it's soft and they do as they were told. They looked at each other before taking a bite to see their reaction.

Their faces spoke more words than if they spoke. Their faces lost colour and turned into a disgusting shade of green. They managed to swallow it, without puking it.

Both of them saw the ingredients and both of their faces wore a disgusting look. "Cream!? Who in the heck puts cream in a sandwich?" Jaden asked as he threw it in the trash.

"You think that's bad?! I got spoiled milk! Why do they give us this type of crap!" Celina threw the wrapper, as Raizou and Taiyou walked in.

"And then Pippin was like "I take offense to your remark!" to Geoffrey as then Geoffrey was like "I take offense to you taking that offe- YOUWCH!" Taiyou was hit by the wrapper and was knocked out.

"Taiyou, are you alright?" Raizou yelled as he ran up to him.

The gang didn't hear them as Chazz walked towards the downed Slifer Reds, "Psh, let The Chazz show you how it's done!" He walked towards the crate and took a random wrapper. He took a bite.

.

.

.

"Carrots?!" He spitted out, "I hate carrots! Ha!" He yelled as he threw the sandwich.

"Are you okay man?" asked Raizou as he pulled the other Obelisk Blue, who nodded, "Goo- OH DEAR!" He yelled as he got hit by the carrot sandwich, making him fall to the ground.

Chazz then fell down to the floor with the rest of the Slifers as Syrus sweatdropped, "How does he keep getting the Golden Eggwiches!? He's like a god at this!"

"I know right?!" agreed Jaden.

"This shouldn't be possible!" yelled Celina as then she turned her head as she heard a certain Ra Yellow walking entering the cafeteria, making most of the Ra Yellows bow down, making the Ra Yellow somewhat nervous.

"It's him!"

"The Golden Eggwich of Ra!"

"The Eggwich God!"

Bastion left out a nervous laugh, "Yeah, it's me. But please don't worship me like a deity in some mythology. Please." He said as most of the Ras nodded and they waited for him to get the Eggwich.

"Hello, guys. Gotten the not so good sandwich?" he asked, as all of them, sans Syrus, nodded as they looked at him in the eyes.

"Bastion, how do you do it man?"

"This is impossible!"

"You really are a God at this!" all of them yelled at the same time as Bastion gulped.

"Look, I told you guys on how to get the Eggwich 3 times already, I don't know what to tell you guys about this." He sighed, "How about I show you." Every person in the cafeteria looked at Bastion thinking to get the perfect sandwich, and then about half a minute later, he took one of them, squished it, took out the wrapper and took a bite. He then showed everyone, more specifically everyone that didn't worship him like a God, the insides of the sandwich and sure enough, it was the Golden Eggwich.

"Again!"

"Amazing!"

"I swear, how does he keep doing this!?"

He nervously continued eating the sandwich.

Later

"Come on, guys! You can't be down just because you didn't get an Eggwich." said Syrus as he and the rest of them, sans Bastion, walked with their heads down.

"You don't get it, Sy! Bastion gets the Eggwich for the last," Jaden used his fingers to count all of the weeks Bastion got a Golden Eggwich, but Celina continued.

"Eight weeks." Jaden turned to her.

"Yeah that much!"

"Man's cheating." suspected Chazz as the Ra that defeated him looked at him.

"How?" asked the Ra Yellow.

"I don't know, probably with your sciencey stuff!" said Chazz as Bastion deadpanned.

"Chazz, you know as much as I do that isn't the case and all of you should stop picking random sandwiches and look for the minor details." said Bastion as the three Slifer Reds looked at him.

"Dude, they are the same size!"

"Even if I pick the small ones and squish 'im, they are the wrong ones!"

Bastion sighed as they were reaching for the exit of Duel Academy, "It can't be helped can it? I guess that all of my formulas have just been inserted into my daily routine so I can always get the one I need."

Everyone stopped in their tracks.

"What." said Syrus as Bastion shook his head.

"Nothing." He opened the door as he went outside, "If you chaps need anything, be sure to tell me. I am, how some might say, free for the time being." He went towards the Ra Yellow dorm, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"I swear, he has to be making this stuff up sometimes." said Chazz as they walked out of the Academy and then, the almost Summer's heat hit them hard as all of them started sweating hard.

"Oh yeah, it's almost Summer." said Jaden as started fanning his hand trying to cool himself down.

"Darn it and just when I forgot my fan." Syrus wiped the sweat out from forehead.

"How did we not notice it until now?" Chazz started taking his jacket.

"Beats me, but if we can survive Crowler's exams, then we can survive this heat." Celina tried to cheer herself and the others up.

Later

As almost heat stroked Slifer Reds reached the Slifer Red dorm, they nearly fell down on the stairs, but continued onwards to their rooms. "If you Slackers need me, I am in my room." said Chazz as he entered his room as he began the AC on.

"Sure man, just gotta go to our dorms." said a tired Jaden as the rest nodded, weakly, as they entered into Chumley's room, and even Celina did as the AC was the strongest there, "Hey, Chum. Mind if Celina stays here for a while?" he fell down.

"Hm? Oh, hey Jay. Sure, I don't mind at all." said Chumley as he opened the mini fridge.

"Thanks man, I owe ya' one." Celina said as she took out her jacket and began fanning herself, with the younger Truesdale did the same.

Hating the fact that this wasn't even the worst temperature and wishing that sweet death takes them.

Their heads were like stones as they wanted to lift up, but were too weak from the heat outside.

Until they heard a cool drink being poured down on some cups. Their heads instantly jerked upwards as they looked at what Chumley was doing, "Oh, I am pouring lemonade for you guys and for myself."

"You are a lifesaver, Chumley." praised Syrus.

"Can't thank you enough." said Celina as she took the cup and chugged it down faster than Usain Bolt could run. "Ahh, refreshing."

"Like Bastion would say "I conquer"." said Jaden as he placed the cup down the floor.

"It's concur." all of the other Slifer Reds in the room said at the same time.

"What did I say?" he asked, confused. They just silently groaned.

After about half an hour, the Slifers were refreshed. "I can't take this heat anymore." said Syrus, on the floor with a PDA on his phone.

"Same here. I don't even want to finish my grilled cheese." said Chumley as his plate of grilled cheese was a few inches away from him, but was too tired.

"Does anyone have a good idea how to deal with this?" asked Celina as she looked at all of them, "I will take anything, honestly."

A small lightbulb appeared on Jaden's head, "How about we go to the beach? With the gang as well?" He looked around as most of them thought about it, but then they thought about it for a little bit and they looked at him.

"Yeah, great idea, Jay."

"That idea is lischus." complimented both Syrus and Chumley at the same time.

However, Celina had something in her mind, she liked the idea, but one thing was on her mind, "Do we even have clothes for the beach?" She really wanted to go there, but she didn't think of taking the clothes with her when she came to this monkey experiment, letting students use rituals, duel spirit summoning school.

Most of the people dropped their heads, but Jaden was giving up, "No, but there is a clothes shop in Duel Academy."

Celina looked at him, "No there isn't."

"There is."

"No, there isn't."

"I am serious, Celina, I am not joking around this time."

"Jay, even I think you are making this up and I have been here for the longest." said Chumley as Celina looked at him.

"See, even he thinks you are making this up," said Celina.

"I've been there, well once by accident, but still I have been there." said Jaden.

Syrus looked at him, "When Jay?"

Jaden looked at his buddy, "Why do you think I was late on the promotion exams?"

"I thought it was because you helped out Dorothy?" Celina put her two cents in.

"Oh that I did, but after I was done I ran towards the classroom, didn't pay attention to my surroundings and BAM! right towards the clothes shop, they even had different types of clothes for all types of the year." he said, "So you wanna go or what?"

Celina shrugged her shoulders, as the rest of them did, "Sure, but I swear on Ra, I will beat your ass if you are lying."

"We'll see about that," he said with confidence.

"I will notify Bastion," said Chumley as he took out his phone.

"Ahh, come on, that means I have to notify Chazz." groaned Syrus as Jaden patted him on the back.

"Don't worry, Sy, we will all notify him." he assured as Celina texted Alexis that they will go to the beach, to which she answered that she was already there. "Alexis is already there."

"Sweet! Now to go with Chazz," he said as exited the room and knocked on Chazz's room, "Chazz!" he knocked again, "Chazz-man!" he knocked once again, "Chazzarino!" he knocked once more, "The Chazz!" he wanted to knock again, but the door opened with an angry expression.

"What do you want, Slacker!?" he asked.

"You wanna go to the clothes shop for the beach?" Jaden asked as Chazz had a confused expression.

"Sure, but there is a clothes shop in this school?"

"Apparently." Syrus said as he exited the room, with a bottle of frozen water.

Chazz sighed, "Why not, better then listening to one of the Stooges." Ojama Yellow then appeared on his shoulder, "Hey Boss, that's mean!" he said crying anime style, "Shut up!" He yelled as he slapped his palms together.

They decided to ignore that he just swatted the air and yelled at nothing, well only Jaden didn't.

1 hour later

As the Slifer Reds were walking in the hallways of Duel Academy, since it still wasn't closed, towards the clothes shop, following Jaden's lead. Which, of course, made them get lost as they were near the Card Shop.

"Oi, Zoro, I think we are lost." Chazz joked as some chuckled at the joke, but Celina turned to him.

"You watch One Piece?" she asked as Chazz shook his head.

"Nah, I just like making that joke." He explained as she 'ahh'ed.

"Come on, I know it's here somewhere." pleaded Jaden as he went all over the school grounds just to get here, but then he remembered something, "I remember!" he yelled randomly as all of them got a little frightened "It's near Crowler's classroom! Come on, I will show you guys!" He grabbed all of their hands as he dragged all of them at the same time.

It took a couple of minutes, and many complaints along the way, but they finally got there and were shocked that, for the first time in the school year, Jaden was right on the nose.

"See! I told you guys, I wasn't lying!" he told them, with a little smugness in his voice.

"Nice, Jay."

"When did this become a thing?"

"Dang, so the Slacker knows something that we don't."

"Well I be damned." said Syrus, Chumley, Chazz and Celina one after the other.

Jaden opened the door, only for him to change directions and look at the others, "Are ya' goin' in, or no?" Many shook their heads and entered the clothes shop.

It was…actually very nice. The clothes all contained either very popular monsters, duelists or duelists and monsters at the same time, with clothes that can go in either the winter, the summer or in between.

All of the clothes had different colours, but most of them came in either in red, yellow or blue, with the Duel Academy symbol on them. And the students in any rank, get to pick the ones that represent their dorms. Even on the swimming trunks.

"You know, this is actually very cool," said Syrus.

"I gotta agree with the shortstack, this is not bad." whistled Chazz as the smallest Slifer Red turned to him.

"What was that punk!?" he yelled at Princeton.

"You heard me midget!" yelled back Chazz.

"No one should call me that!"

"Well I do! And what are you going to do to me?! Punch my knees?!"

"Oh that is it!" yelled Syrus as he jumped at Chazz, with the bigger boy returning the favour as he began throwing hands. All of them sweatdropped.

Chumley sighed, "I will go and split them up, while you two grab some clothes for us. Okay?"

"Sure man." said Celina as she went into the women's section.

"Yeah, Chum, go ahead. I promise to find one to fit just for you." waved Jaden as he went into the men's section with the Slifer Red clothes.

"Thanks!" Chumley yelled as he walked over the two fighting Slifers, "I don't get paid enough for this." he muttered, as he then widened, "Wait a minute! I don't get paid at all!" He walked towards them and grabbed the two of them, "Alright! Alright! Break it up! Break it up!"

But they didn't listen as they charged at each other and continued fighting.

"I will sit on both of you, if you guys don't stop." warned Chumley as both of them stopped fighting.

"Hell no! I am not trying to die!"

"Me too!" Both of them yelled at the same time as Chumley picked them up and they got on their feet.

Meanwhile, Jaden was going all over the designs of the Slifer Red swimming trunks as he couldn't decide to pick out the crimson coloured one or the checker style with two different shades of red.

While he was walking around, with swimming trunks for the appropriate sizes of his pals in between his shoulder and chest, he accidently walked towards a student. "Oh sorry man, didn't see you."

"It's quite alright, I didn't feel it." said the familiar voice as Jaden looked at the person, and it was the Golden Eggwich of Ra himself, Bastion. In his hands were two different sizes of swimming trunks. One is medium, and one is large.

"Hey, Bastion. What are you doing?" Jaden asked the Ra Yellow.

"Well I got the message from Chumley about going to the beach and I decided why not? So I went to this shop and I am trying to figure out if I should wear medium or large." asked Bastion, not taking his eyes from the trunks as he then looked at Jaden for advice, "Which do you shall I wear?"

Jaden put his hand to his chin, as he looked at Bastion's eyes, "You should wear a medium, it will not only fit you, but also it won't make you uncomfortable and won't slip off when you are swimming or playing games." He said, shocking everyone that he said something that smart about this.

Bastion nodded as he put down the clothes, but then looked at him, "Thanks Jaden, but how do you know that all? If you don't mind me asking."

"Oh, my mama is all about clothing, and is a designer for a lot of clothing. I had to be a model for her everytime," Jaden explained as Bastion nodded as they both went to the counter to pay for it, with Celina close to them with her own clothing, "But hey, I got ice cream any time I helped with and get to spend time with her, so all is good."

"Alright, nice to know." Bastion said as he put down his clothing on the counter, "Can't wait for the beach, but I will be a little bit late since I do have to get some sunscreen."

Most of them widened, "CRAP! WE FORGOT THAT PART!" most of them thought, as Jaden put down his clothes and Celina's 1 piece Slifer Red bathing suit on the counter, "Oh, don't worry about that part, since there is also a shop for it too."

"Wait, what?" asked Celina as she looked at him, dead in the eye, "There is also a shop where you can buy sunscreen?" Jaden nodded. "When? How?"

"Why do you think I was late for getting a ticket to get to see Yugi's deck?" he asked as Chazz mentally cursed himself for not seeing that deck.

"I thought you were extremely slow." admitted Bastion as he looked at the counter, "Are you…really okay of buying all of this?"

Jaden waved his hand, "Don't worry about that, man, I will just use my weekly allowance." He said as he placed a 100 dollar bill on the counter as the cashier began scanning all of the items while Celina was thinking just how much of a circus this school is sometimes.

Most of them stared at the counter, looked at the items, only for them to be perfect sizes as then they look at Jaden, who was having a conversation with both Celina and Bastion at the same time, possibly talking about something with the beach or something else, they couldn't really focus on it.

Chazz bit his lip, "...I always forget that he is somewhat rich."

"Yeah, me too."

"Same with me." agreed Syrus and Chumley.

Something in Chazz didn't really set right with him. He couldn't let that Slacker make him feel like he was the poorer man, so he took out his phone and ordered something online, with his brothers' credit card that he may or may not have stolen from.

As soon as they were done, all of them grabbed their respective item and went towards the shop. Celina was in the front, while Bastion, Chazz and Jaden were in the middle and Chumley and Syrus were in the back.

"Hey," whispered Syrus towards Chumley, with enough volume so Celina doesn't hear them.

"What, Sy?" asked Chumley in the same volume.

"Remember when she said that Alexis is gonna be there right?" Bastion and Chazz knew what they were about to talk about, due them being closet perverts.

"Yeah wh- oh I get it." Both Chumley and Syrus got perverted grins.

"We get to see two girls in bikinis." he silently laughed as Celina stopped in her tracks.

"Oh shit." thought everyone that wasn't Jaden or Celina.

Celina cracked her knuckles, "What did you guys say?" as Syrus and Chumley took a step back.

"About the birds!" quickly yelled Syrus.

"Really now?" She wasn't convinced at all as she looked at Chumley, "What kind of birds?"

"Uh, uh, chicks!" And then a second later he knew he messed up, "Wait no!"

Celina then gave her 1 piece bathing suit to Jaden as she looked at Chumley and Syrus, "Run."

And run they did, as both of the Slifer Reds ran faster than they could ever as Celina ran after them.

Chazz shook his head, "Idiots and now they are going to be punished for their stupidity."

"I concur, at least don't voice your opinion." agreed Bastion as he looked at Jaden, who was confused.

"I don't get it. They were just talking about girls in bikinis, so why did she react like that?" he asked as the two remaining duelists looked at each other before looking at him.

"We'll explain it to you when you're older." said Bastion as Jaden was even more confused.

"But all of us are the same age."

"We'll explain it to you when you're older." assured Chazz as they could hear a loud SMACK and two boys groaning from the pain.

A Few Minutes Later (Aka 45 minutes)

Syrus and Chumley were still rubbing their heads while Chazz was silently laughing the whole way through. On their way to the beach, they bought towels, sunscreen and a sun blocker to shield their eyes.

They were currently towards the beach as they saw a sun blocker covering two people from the sun as they were on a bench, drinking drinks from a small table. Once they got close they saw the two figures.

It was Zane, wearing Obelisk Blue shorts with the Duel Academy symbol on the bottom with black sunglasses, and the other was Alexis, who was wearing a 1 piece Obelisk Blue bathing suit also wearing yellow sunglasses.

Jaden was the first to speak up, "Lex? Kaiser? What are you guys doing here?" he asked as the two Obelisk Blues turned to him.

"Oh, hey guys." started off Alexis, "We are just sitting here for a couple of hours," she shrugged her shoulders, "talking about our school work and such."

"Wait. I sent that text 2 hours ago, and you are still here?" Celina asked her only female friend.

Alexis turned to her, "Jazz and Mindy forced me too, but an hour later they left and here I am." Celina nodded to that as Syrus looked at his older brother.

"I never knew you were into beaches, bro." he said.

The Kaiser turned to him, "She forced me, Sy, I had no choice." he said without a joking tone whatsoever, making most people chuckle that out of all the people she forced to being here with her, she picked the best duelist there.

Bastion turned around to see a place where they can change into their swimming clothes and pointed at it, making most people followed with him, but Celina felt a disturbance in the force as she can practically feel the perverted thoughts coming from Chazz towards her friend so she at him and gave him a nice and hard SMACK on the head.

Syrus laughed, "Not so funny now is it, Princeton?!" Chazz rose up.

"Oh, I will give you something funny!" he ran at him, and the two created dust clouds.

Chumley sighed, "I will get them."

Couple of minutes later

As all of them were done changing, Chazz and Syrus stopped fighting each other. When they were done, Jaden could feel a little heat coming in his cheeks when he saw Celina as he tried to ignore it.

Chazz took a towel that had the Obelisk The Tormentor on it, and sat on it, "If you don't mind me, I will be sleeping, so don't bother me at all." He then laid on it and began sleeping.

Bastion respected his sleeping so he took out a stick and began writing formulas on the sand, while Celina looked at the volleyball court, ball, net and poles and had an idea, Jaden tried to race by swimming with Chumley, while Syrus had a different idea.

"Sy, what are you doing?" asked Zane as he looked at his younger brother.

"Playing a prank on Chazz." he said as he started digging up a hole just enough to fit Princeton.

"Why?" asked Alexis.

"Because, I want revenge for calling me short." Both of the Obelisks cringed at the sound of that, even the cockiest of Obelisk Blues don't make fun of his height.

"Okay, just don't kill him." said Zane as both he and Alexis left to lay on the benches as Syrus continued to make the hole bigger.

When Syrus was currently doing the hole, Celina was setting up so they could play volleyball, Jaden and Chumley were swimming around and Bastion was still doing his formulas.

After he was done, he was quiet as he put Chazz in the hole, thank god he was a heavy sleeper, as he was pulling his body to it and placed him there. He then picked up all of the sand and then built it up. He placed a hat on the former Obelisk Blue/North Academy student.

"Hey guys!" All of them stopped on what they were doing as they looked at Syrus pointing at Chazz as his head was the only visible thing. All of them started laughing, making Alexis chuckle, but Zane was cold as usual.

"Oh my god!" Celina was laughing as she nearly hit herself on the equipment.

"That is hilarious!" laughed Chumley as he was floating on the water.

"Great one, Sy- oh dear!" Jaden almost drowned as Chumley picked him up, "Thanks Chum."

"Quite humorous, but," everyone turned to Bastion, "What happens if he wakes up?"

Syrus opened his mouth, but then closed it. He had nothing when he wakes up and gives him a can of whoopass. He then shrugged his shoulders, "Might as well enjoy it as long as this lasts."

After a while of them during their own thing, and Jaden and Chumley cleaning themselves after they were swam, they then heard, sans Bastion as he was too focused in his math. "Hey guys! Look what I have made!"

They then turned to see Celina with a completed volleyball set and a volleyball in her hands, "Wanna play?"

Both, Zane and Alexis, respectfully shook their heads, wanting to just rest in peace.

Jaden, Chumley and Syrus all shouted, "Yeah sure!"

"Great, now let's-"

"Hold on," heads were turned towards the Kaiser of Duel Academy, "Shouldn't there be a person to keep the scores in check?"

Jaden snapped his fingers as he looked around, "True, true, Kaiser. Hey, Bastion you want to-" he turned his head to see Bastion too busy with his formulas as he went further and further away from the group, almost directly where Wheeler and his family were chilling.

"Oh dear he is near the monkeys." said Jaden as he ran towards him.

"We need to stop him." Syrus ran with him, with Chumley, begrudgingly, running with him.

"Great, just when I almost forgot about them." groaned Celina.

"I am sorry, the what?" Zane was confused as he was the only one here that didn't know about the monkeys.

"We'll explain it later." Alexis told The Kaiser as they saw Jaden walking towards Bastion, with a grin on his face.

He shushed everyone, as he got closer to him, who mumbled something about how to fix his Magnet Warrior deck, as he then got picked up, shocking everyone. "Hey, what the Ra are you doing Jaden?!"

Jaden said nothing as he threw him in the waters, chuckling as Bastion raised up from the water, "Sorry, Bastion. It was the only way to get your attention away from the monkeys."

"Why didn't you ju- Wait, monkeys?" Bastion turned to see at least 3 monkeys swinging from tree to trees. "...What is this place?"

"Same question." Bastion turned to see Celina, with a volleyball in her hands, "Do you want to keep scores?"

Bastion shrugged, "Might as well, since I don't want to get anywhere near monkeys." He stood up, drying himself with a towel and walked towards the chair and kept scores with the game.

It was Celina and Chumley versus Jaden and Syrus. Despite Syrus lack of stamina, and Chumley's slowness, and Jaden's and Celina's want to win, it was a game that could go either way. No matter who was in the lead, just like in a duel, someone could make a fantastic comeback.

This lasted a good 40 minutes, with two of the players down for the count, Syrus looking like he was Yamcha when fighting a Saibamen and Chumley laying face first on the sand, and Bastion's closeness to the game, the scores were almost always even. If one team won a point, the other will win it back in a few seconds flat.

The game got so intense that some could even feel fire when it was hot, like it went super sonic. But right now, it was a tie, 49-49. One more point, and either team wins the entire game.

Jaden threw the ball and then smacked it back to the opposite side of the court, with Celina jumping and slamming it on the ground.

Before Jaden could react, a guy in a delivery suit came in, by a boat with two very big packages on, "Is anyone here by the names of Chazz Princeton?"

"Huh?" poor Jaden was cut off guard, that the ball hit his side of the court, making him and Syrus the losers, "Dang it! No!"

"Gosh darn it." groaned Syrus as he picked himself up.

"Boom! How do you like that!?" Celina did small dances as she picked Chumley back up, "Anyway, what's with Chazz?" she asked as the delivery boy looked at his list.

"It says right here that a person by the name of Chazz Princeton ordered two jet skis on a location by the name of Duel Academy. So is he here, or?" the delivery said as he looked around as most of them dropped their jaws, sans Zane who was most likely asleep.

"Give me a sec." said Celina as she got up to the sleeping former Obelisk Blue/North Academy student and slightly kicked him, not enough to hurt him, but to wake him up.

"Hey! What's the big idea?!" Chazz yelled as he tried moving his legs and arms, but then realized that he was trapped. "Who did this?" he asked calmly.

"I don't know." Syrus said as then everyone else, even his older brother said.

"Syrus/Sy." they said that at the same time as Chazz looked at him with a not so friendly look on his face.

"Well then, come here, Sy buddy. I won't hurt you." he said with the most calmly violent voice possible. Syrus ran towards his older brother, making him stand up with a tired expression on his face.

"Please, protect me from him, big bro." he whispered to Zane, as he walked away, Syrus following him like a puppy as the rest began taking off the sand away from The Chazz.

"You did this to yourself, Sy." he mumbled out of his breath, "Fine." He then stopped, turned around and crossed his arms with a fierce expression on his face that not even a bloodthirsty monster would fight him, Syrus hid behind him.

Meanwhile, as the rest were taking off the sand away from the winner of the School Duel, as the curiosity got the better of the Hero player, "Why did you buy this, Chazz?" he asked as he grinned, feeling his arms and legs again.

"I wanted to prove that you are not the only rich person here." he said with a grin as some of them looked at him weirdly.

"Chazz, not to burst your bubble, but my dad owns a hot sauce company." Chumley as Chazz's grin lowered a bit.

"My parents are scientists." explained Bastion as Chazz's grin was lowered even more.

"My mum's a therapist while my dad is a chef." said Celina as Chazz's grin was returned by a frown.

"Same here with my parents." said Alexis as Chazz's frown was made worse.

"Damn it," he cursed under his breath, as the delivery boy sat on the seat playing Subway Surfers on his phone waiting for the delivery.

As soon as he was freed from the sand, he stood up, waiting to beat up Syrus, but then saw Zane glaring at him with Syrus behind him. It was like a mother hen protecting her baby chicks.

Chazz dropped his head, knowing it was incredibly stupid to even anger the Kaiser of Duel Academy, so he walked towards the delivery boy, who got the papers and Chazz signed it.

The delivery boy then got the two jet skis and put them on the shore. He bowed his head, started the engine and went back to his work place, leaving the students of Duel Academy with two jet skis that the school would most likely never know about.

Bastion walked up to him, "Question; how did you pay this? I mean, you don't have any money on you, don't you?" he asked as Chazz looked at him with a grin on his face.

"With my brothers' credit cards." Everyone did a double take on that.

"What?" Alexis asked.

"How did you get permission?" asked Zane.

"More importantly, how did you get them?" asked Celina as Chazz had a bigger grin on his face.

"Who said I got permission?" Everyone looked at him, "I stole them."

"When?" asked Chumley.

"When they ran at me after the School Duel after I won." he wiped his bare chest with his hand, as Jaden sweatdropped "He won't let that go, will he?"

"I wonder how they will react to you using their credit cards." said Syrus as he got closer to the person he trapped with sand, as Zane glared at Chazz to not even try anything.

At the Princeton residence

While Slade was busy drinking his coffee while reading the news about Johnny Steps beating Duke Devlin, he was then interrupted as Jagger ran into the room. "Slade, big brother! You have to hear this!"

"What is it now, Jagger?" he said as he placed his newspaper down as his younger brother ran at him with the phone on and gave it to him.

"It's your bank account, they need you." he said as Slade answered the phone.

"What do you want?" he asked, rudely.

.

.

"What?! What do you mean I spent 12 000 dollars on my bank account!?"

.

.

"A couple of hours ago?! I don't remember buying those jet skis!" He started arguing with the person on the phone for a couple of minutes as he finally hung up. He slung on his chair as he groaned, "What idiot could've done this?"

He then remembered feeling something coming onto his pants and something being stolen when the School Duel ended, by his youngest brother.

"OH THAT MOTHER-"

Back at Duel Academy

Suddenly Chazz and the rest of the gang could hear Slade finishing on his sentence, "-FUCKER!" He then closed his eyes with a smile on his face, "I sometimes love having thieves as my monsters."

Somewhere in Chazz's room, all of the Dark Scorpions felt the urge to cry as they thought they heard something nice from the Boss.

So after the shock that heard a noise coming from hundreds of miles away they asked him if it were alright if they borrowed his jet skis, which he allowed as long it wasn't damaged, while Zane and Alexis continued to sit down and talk about how calm it is for them to enjoy the day.

Bastion and Chazz decided to use the jet ski for a while, while the rest used it as well. After around 40 minutes, they arrived back at the shore, while the two students were still using the jet ski.

"Ahh that was nice." said Celina as she stretched her back.

"I know right, I haven't felt that nice with a veichle in a long time." agreed Chumley.

"Couldn't agree more. Right Sy?" Jaden turned around to see his little buddy, but to his shock, he wasn't there. "Oh dear."

"What do you me- Oh my." Celina turned around and much to her shock she also saw nothing.

"Oh no." That was all that the senior Slifer Red could say.

"Guys, is something wrong?" Alexis asked as they saw the worry on her friends' faces.

"Where is my little brother?" asked Zane, as they could feel his anger rising up.

"Uhh, right here! Just give us a couple seconds!" yelled Jaden as he turned the thing on and went straight towards Syrus, who thankfully wasn't dead.

For the rest of the day, they decided to play games like being blindfolded and smash a watermelon, that was also in the shop that they were in, with a bat, also from the store, and Jaden was the winner of that, since most of them weren't successful.

Zane didn't want to participate, Syrus was hitting people by the knees, Alexis BONK!ed Chazz on the head, Celina might or might not have hit one of the guys in between them accidently, Chumley threw the bat accidently and destroyed one of the skis, which explained the 6000 dollar deposit from his dad's bank account which he had to ask for, Bastion missed every hit and Chazz thought he didn't need help as he hit the ski accidently, destroying it.

When Jaden hit the watermelon, most of the crew were in a photo, from Alexis' phone.

After that disaster, they decided to play Never Have I Ever? which even Zane participated in, begrudgingly, told stories from their stay at this crack head of a school and more.

As the sky turned, they got dressed, with the stuff with them, but Zane felt a presence…watching them. He turned around and he swore a figure with green hair with a mask covering his eyes with a dark trench coat, but as he blinked, the figure disappeared.

"Are you coming, Zane or what?" asked Syrus to his older brother.

Zane shook his head, must have been his imagination, "Yeah, I am coming, but I swore I saw something."

Somewhere in an unknown location

In a location, there were 6 figures sitting on their respective chairs. Three of them were sitting on the left side, one was sitting on the middle and two were sitting on the right side.

The one that was sitting on the leftmost chair on the left side of the table was a male with bright orange hair that was snazzy and was all over the place. He had a mole below on his right eye, to which they were green. He wore a mask that was similar to the design of an Ancient Gear monster. His clothes were oddly coloured. On the left side was orange coloured while the other was light blue. He wore a purple tie. He also wore black pants with orange shoes. "Hmm. Is he late? A shame really, I wanted to show all of us some entertainment."

The one that was sitting on the middle chair on the left side of the table was a female with a dark tan and impressive physique. She wore dark red lipstick. Her hair was purple, and was tied by a ponytail. On her left side of her face, there was a two line scar, most likely from a fight. She had greenish-blue eyes. She wore a spiked choker. She wore a dark blue tank top, battle pants, two gauntlets on her arms and two belts around her waist. She looked at the smaller duelist, "Don't be hasty, now. Just because he is late, doesn't mean he isn't a part of us."

The duelist on her right side scoffed, "Good riddance I say. Less of you and the more duelists I can get, the better." She said. She was on the rightmost side of the left table. Her appearance was more gothic than the others. She had long green hair, down to her hips. She wore a long red blood dress, with around her legs were little strands of the cloth. There were two gauntlets or bracelets around each of her hands. She had bats on both of her legs and on her chest. LIke the other, she wore dark red lipstick. She had brown eyes, two earrings that looked like vases and a choker with an eye on it.

On the middle of the table a man that has covered his mouth in bandages, a mask on his face that covered his eyes, a beige cape, a red scarf both on his neck and hips with amulets on them looked at the third duelist, "That is no way to talk to your subordinate. Even if he is late, you still must treat them with respect." The man also had a long black outfit that covered his bottom and top area of his body. He wore a gauntlet on his right side.

A man on the middle seat of the right area of the table closed his eyes, with his arms crossed, "So what? He knew that this was important for the beasts so why does he think he needs to be late? Frankly, I think we should start this off without him." The man has two different colours of hair. On the back was yellow, but on the front, it was dark green. He had silver eyes. He wore a tight purple, black jacket that on the inside was red, with green lines all over his jacket. He wore a watch that was the same look as that of the other's choker, almost like a relic. He wore white pants and black boots.

"Now, now, old friend. Let's not get too angry, you don't want to upset your brother, don't you?" the man scowled as the man next to him waved his finger at him with a smirk on his face. The man on the leftmost chair on the right side of the table had two different shades of purple, with short purple eyebrows and purple eyes. He wore a red cape, a purple suit like a commander and wore white pants and black shoes. The yellow green haired man wanted to fight him for pressing a nerve, but he knew that would be foolish.

"Sorry, I am late." Everyone turned to the final duelist, who entered the room and sat on the rightmost chair, "I was busy seeing what our opponents looked like. Only one of them caught my attention." For some reason, he felt a strange connection with the blue haired duelist.

"That's quite alright, Nightshroud, don't make that mistake again." Nightshroud nodded his head, "Now. We all know why we are here, right?"

"To summon the Sacred Beasts." said the purple haired duelist.

"That's right, and tomorrow, we will send one of us, Shadow Riders, to duel the Key Keepers for the gates of the Sacred Beasts." the man explained as he looked around the duelists, "Which one of you, will go first?"

"I really don't mind going first or last, as long as I give them an entertaining show when I defeat them." said the red haired Shadow Rider.

"As long as all of you will spare one of the men, I will be pleased." said the warrior type Shadow Rider.

"Quite honestly, I don't care which of you goes first, as long as I accomplish my mission, I will be satisfied." said the yellow green haired Shadow Rider.

"As long as I see the dread of their faces when all hope was drained, I will be glad." said the purple haired, sadistic Shadow Rider.

"Understood." the cloaked Shadow Rider nodded as he looked at the vampiric Shadow Rider and the green haired Shadow Rider, "Which one of you will start?"

"I will sta-"

"I'll go." stated the green haired man as he stood up, making the vampire duelist shocked.

"Are you kidding me?! You come here late and all of a sudden, you want to start first?!" she exclaimed as the green haired duelist turned to her.

"I…have some business with one of the future Key Keepers, so don't stand in my way." he said as he exited the room, making the vampire duelist's blood boil.

"And that settles it, Nightshroud will begin first and the rest of you will choose if you will go once he is defeated." The cloaked man said as he exited the room by a different door. The rest of the Shadow Riders stayed in the room they were in.

At Duel Academy

Chancellor Sheppard was shaking in his sleep, having horrible images of his students falling, one by one, screaming in agony as they lost to a duelist wearing a Shadow Charm. It reminded him of several other dreams of this kind, but this was the most extreme, like it was near.

He woke up, sweating and breathing like he didn't before. He looked at his room and then at his hand, then at the ceiling with eyes widened, "They are coming," he said under his breath.

Authors Note:

And done! That was quicker than I thought! Sorry if it was shorter than I could write, since there was no duel, I decided to add some story stuff to this chapter. And do you guys hear that?

It's the Shadow Rider arc! One of my favourite arcs in Yugioh (despite its many problems)! I wanted to make this arc ever since I started this thing, and here we are, a couple of words away from it!

Just so you guys know, I, obviously, changed the roster. Not a huge change, but different from the usual roster in canon. I let some of them stay, but the others went bye-bye. Guess who they are!

Some duels are gonna have different victors, some have different duels, like different changes, most of all, some changes to the game itself. (You will know what I mean, soon enough.)

Before I end this chapter, I want to recommend two stories to all of you since they are currently my favourite Yugioh fics at the moment.

One is Tag Force: Heroes and Villains from ToBlazePurple, a huge fic that finished season 1 and is currently in season 2. It follows an OC (Wilona Konami) and her many adventures of her visit to Duel Academy. The story is interesting since it has characters from different series, different summoning methods and elements from both the manga and anime. I highly recommend it if you want a story that follows the canon, but also makes a different spin on it.

And the other is Yugioh Zexal: Feeling the Ultimate Flow from Star-Eyes Pendulum Dragon. It follows the story of Rio Kastle, if she wakes up earlier than in canon and becomes close friends with Yuma. I will admit, I am not the biggest fan of Zexal, despite it being my 3rd favourite Yugioh spin off, only beaten by 5ds and GX. But the story is interesting and has some changes to the canon. I am only on Chapter 3, but let me tell ya, the chapters are even bigger than mine.

Well, hope to see ya' guys later!
