'Chronicles of a Duelist - Beginning Arc 1'

GX Saga 1-How everything began…

This Story is between the Graduation Duel and the start of the New Year, the society of light saga. Enjoy

Somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean was an island, an island with the Duel Academy. This structure was build by Seto Kaiba, founder and owner of the Kaiba Corporation in order to teach and train the next generation of duelists. The students on the island are placed in three Ranks:

-Obelisk Blue, the Elite of this School, who's Grade were superior in middle school or due to

- Ra Yellow, the Students, who did great on their entrance exam and have great Potential

-Slifer Red, the lowest Rank of this School, mostly treated poorly by the upper Ranks and Teachers, where Students fear for expulsion due to their Grades.

The Obelisk Blue House is separated in two houses, a Boy Dorm and a Girl Dorm, where all female Students live, independent from their Grades.

The Exams are also divided in parts, the written and practical Exams, when someone fails them, they can try it in the next year.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">A helicopter or a ship to the island transports the Students, who passed the entry exam.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">And here begins the Chronicles of one Duelist, who tries to find his Road of Life…

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">GX-Saga 1-chapter 1: Everything that has a beginning…

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It was a nice wind on the ocean; the sun was shining on the water, as an incoming helicopter, whose course was the island, broke the silence. The time, where the Exams were held, was long over, but the helicopter contained a newcomer, who was getting himself ready.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He was a 16-year old boy, had nape-length jet-black hair, brown eyes and a necklace with three golden strokes around his neck, who was studying his cards, which were spread on the table he was sitting at, when his eyes caught the Duel Academy, which he saw out of his window. He went closer to the window, in order to analyze it better, he grinned, when the helicopter started to land. He stored his cards back into his deck box, which he had attached on his right side of his belt and grabbed his bag with all of his belongings, when the Helicopter made finally contact with the ground, they finally landed. The door opened and the fresh breeze of the ocean blew into his face, when he jumped out of the helicopter. He looked up to the academy, while the helicopter started its engine again, in order to return to its base.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-''This Place is going to be my new home for the next 3 years? Sounds like fun-'' he thought smiling, and then he walked towards the giant Building, in order to get his Rank.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In the entry hall, two people stood there, one of them was holding a bunch of papers, while the other was holding a red box in his hands.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You are Dage Kenshin, correct?" the one with the Papers asked, looking carefully through them, as the named one nodded quickly. The other man walked up to him and handed him the box over, which he opened curiously. It contained a red jacket, white trousers and red shoes and even a red hat was inside.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You are ranked in Slifer Red, the lowest Rank of this Place! If you pay attention during your Lessons and improve your Duel Skills, there could be a chance for you, to get a higher rank!" the man continued, as Jin started to unpack his new jacket and wanted to put it on, when he noticed the strange looks of the two.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Is something wrong, dudes?" he wondered, when they pointed into a room.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You can't just undress here, for that we have a changing room!" the left man exclaimed, making Dage look at him confused and then he blushed in embarrassment.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Really? Oh sorry about that, dudes" Dage apologized quickly and wandered into the changing room, the two people looked after him with weird eyes.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Quite the weirdo, isn't he? Changing his clothes in the middle of the school hall?"

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, he isn't the first weirdo, but he is a talented one at the same time. Have you heard the rumor?" the two stopped their talk, when Dage walked out of the room, the hat fit him perfectly, and he closed his new jacket and looked towards the two People.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"What is next?" he asked, the man on the right walked then towards a door, showing him to follow him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"The chancellor wants to meet you in person. Get your ass in gear!" he ordered harsh, Dage, who was still holding his bag, swung it over his shoulders and followed the man, while adjusting his hat.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">They walked for quite a while, until they came to a door, which automatically opened and Dage stepped in, dumping his bag at the corner of the door and walked through the room. A woman in green uniform along with two other men in the same uniform stared at him with cautious eyes, which gave him a strange feeling. A large build man with a bald head and beard, was sitting next to the window, he looked quite friendly, as he saw Dage walking towards him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You must be Dage Kenshin, the Newcomer I heard so much about. Welcome to the Duel Academy, I am Chancellor Sheppard!" he greeted, Dage lifted his hat of, so he could look at him properly.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"In this Academy, we have set ourselves a very important goal, which is to train the next generation of Duelists, so give your best during this time. In a few weeks, we will be holding a tournament, the Duelist Tournament, in which all houses participate and become the best duelist of the up-coming year." He explained, while Dage was listening very carefully and very interested.

<p style="background: white;">''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Duelist Tournament, huh? Sounds cool- ''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he thought, as the Chancellor continued.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Your first Lessons are going to start soon, so go to the classroom on the west side. There will be your teacher waiting, Vellian Crowler. He is our best teacher, so do whatever he asks you to do" Chancellor finished, Dage grinned then at him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Sounds cool, dude. Is there any chance, I can duel you?" he asked, causing the others in the room to gasp in surprise. The chancellor started to laugh at that so hard he almost fell out of his chair.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Wonderful, such an aggressive duelist! Never change that Attitude! Now, go on and get to the class room, before they start without you, youngster" he replied, as Dage grabbed his bag and walked with his hand waving out of the room, the door closed automatically.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">A few minutes later, the door opened again, as Dage stuck his head in, looking at the Rector confused.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Where is west?" he asked, making Sheppard laugh again, as Dage looked at him a little irritated.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Whoa dude, isn't my fault that I don't know where west or south are- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he thought, when Sheppard gave the woman next to him wink, as she walked right towards him and glared him straight into the eye, making Dage to gulp.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Follow me, I will show your classroom! Move it!" she demanded in a harsh tone, as she walked past him, rushing away.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Dude, why do we have to be running all the time? I almost missed the helicopter, because I overslept," he muttered, almost running after her.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After a few minutes, they arrived onto a door, where the woman turned around and walked past him, a furious glare was in her eyes, as they met his.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Whoa, what is her problem? Who cares? Now, time to get to class" he muttered, as the Door opened up and he walked in, seeing a tall, blond-haired Person with a blue coat in front of him, making the noise of hideous laugher to himself.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Today, a new Student is coming. His Score at the Entry Exam was quite…impressive. This could be my chance of getting rid of the Drop-out Boy" he laughed out, as Dage walked up to him, waiting to get noticed, what didn't happen.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Dude, you Crowler?" he asked loud, startling the person almost off his feet. Then he turned around, showing a face that would scare any normal person half to death, but Dage has been used to worse things, his eyes almost popped out, as he starred towards Dage.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"HOW LONG HAVE BEEN THERE?" he yelled, not impressing him though.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Exactly since you started jabbering about Drop-out-something" he answered with a smile.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The Man regained his cool again after a few seconds, straighten his Body again, looking normal now for Dage, except for the make-up, which made him wonder a bit.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-''Is that a woman or a Dude? Can't really tell- ''Dage wondered in his thoughts, as the Person started to introduce him/herself proudly.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well then, my Name is Professor Doctor Vellian Crowler, the best Teacher of this Academy. You must be Dage Kenshin, the Newcomer, correct?" he asked him, getting a nod from him as an answer. But before he could answer, a voice behind Crowler shouted out:

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Who got beaten by me!" a boy with brown hair, brown eyes and the Slifer Uniform jumped out of nowhere, showing of the peace sign. Crowler turned around furiously, his eye balls almost popped out again.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"BE QUIET DROP-OUT BOY OR YOU WILL HAVE DETAINATION AFTER CLASS AGAIN!" he almost screamed, Dage flinched this time, cause of the volume.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Dude, this guy needs some anger-management class- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he thought, as the other boy jumped back in fear.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Everything, just not that again, I already had to do that four times this week!" he said in panic, making Dage to raise his Hat, in order to make some impression to the fellow student.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Already four detention in this week? Tops my score" he said, getting a grin from him, as Crowler interrupted their conversation.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I have over heard that, just please don't become a Slacker like he his" he said, pointing at the other boy, who disappeared into the class again.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I will keep that in mind, dude. Besides, where can I dump my stuff? I have been carrying this stuff since days" he asked to Crowler, showing the bag over his Shoulder.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"After School, you will be sent to your Dorm along with your Dorm Mates, they will show you. So the School plan works like this: From Monday until Saturday you have school from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. don't come late and your grades will go also up" he explained, as he stretched his arm out, pointing towards the class.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You have still some time to spare, look around the class, find yourself some new friends," he said, as he waltzed of, leaving Dage all by himself.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Alrighty, time for some investigations" he said to himself, dumping his Bag somewhere, and his hands into his pockets and walked down the stairs. His first sight fell onto a black haired person, who was wearing a black coat, a bit torn up, not the same as the others, as Dage looked around. Then he shrugged and walked right towards him, the guy noticed him by now, patterned him with his eyes from top to bottom.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Who are you? Never seen you around here" he asked a little harsh, as Dage smiled back, despite the rude behavior.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, I am since few minutes here. The Name is Dage, Dage Kenshin. You got a name?" he asked polite, only to get the finger of the guy almost into his face, more likely between his eyes.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"For you, I am THE CHAZZ, the one and only Chazz Princeton, got it?" Chazz said, surprising Dage a bit and making him sweatdrop on that reaction.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Nice Nickname, Dude, I am only Dage, see ya" he said, holding in a big laugh, as he saw Chazz waving around himself, as where flies around him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Get away from me, you annoying flies!" he growled angry, Dage only sweatdropped on the angry Chazz, who was really trying to swat something.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Funny Dude, bit weird though- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he thought, when he reached the end of the stairs, seeing Crowler working through his papers.

<p style="background: white;">''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Why does that Dude wear make-up? Well, one mystery to be solved- ''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he continued to think, as someone tipped him onto his shoulder. When he turned around, his heart almost slipped down his trousers.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He was facing a girl, whose beauty exceeded his imaginations, with blond-brown hair, same eye color and the Obelisk Blue Girl Uniform.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You're the Transfer, is that correct?" she asked with a nice voice, Dage blushed lightly, as he scratched his head embarrassed.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, uh, I am since few minutes here and you already see that? Cool, I guess" he laughed quietly, his heart was racing like crazy.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I recognize a Newcomer on the spot, when I see one. I am Alexis Rhodes, hopefully, we can become good friends" she said, reaching out her hand, which Dage grabbed with a gentle, but firm grip.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, thanks for the honor, I am Dage Kenshin, nice to meet you, Alexis" he said, his face went a little more red, which she thankfully did not notice.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"If you have any questions, feel free to ask me," she answered and walked back to her seat, she gave Dage a nice smile, before they separated. After that, Dage continued his walk through the class, his heart did not want to stop racing.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-''Dude, what a beauty! Guess I got a crush XD!-'' he thought, when he went up the stairs, noticing the looks of a black haired boy, perhaps his age, more neat then the previous he saw. He although was wearing the Ra Yellow Uniform.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"You are the New Guy, who just came, correct?" he asked him, getting a nod as answer.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Correct, Dude, I am Dage Kenshin, the Newbie" he said politely, looking into the eyes of his talk partner, who was observing him carefully.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Good Name, I am Bastion Misawa, it's nice to meet you. The Lessons will start soon, I will see soon enough, how good you are" he said, as he got his cards out, to sort them out, but Dage didn't even look at the cards, but continued his walk.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"See ya" he waved, walking up to the stairs, noticing the looks of the other Students at him.

<p style="background: white;">''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-No need to look at his cards, which would ruin the fun, if I knew already his cards. Wait, isn't that the person from before? - ''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">He thought, as he saw the Boy from before, when he entered the room, Dage smiled again, walking towards him. The other boy noticed him already and jumped up from his seat and walked towards him as well.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Hey man, you are the new Guy! I have heard much good stuff about you. I'm Jaden Yuki, you are Dage Kenshin, as far as I have heard" Jaden introduced, Dage only reached his hand out as greeting.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I also heard from you, not to flattery though. The teach calls ya Drop-out Boy Dude, but you don't look like one" Dage said, as the next guy beside Jaden looked around him, a bit smaller Boy with light blue hair, glasses and the red uniform like Jaden.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Crowler isn't the teacher, who respects all Students. I am Syrus Truesdale by the way" explained Syrus, giving Dage his best smile.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Nice to ya, Dude, the name is Dage, like you have heard, the Newbie" Dage answered back, when Jaden just wanted to pack his Duel Disk out.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, enough talking, how about we have a Duel?" Jaden suggested, getting only face-palms from Syrus.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Jaden, we can't Duel in the middle of the lessons, do you want to get detention again from Crowler?" Bastion asked from below, getting the attention of the group.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Bastion? Since when are you here?" Syrus asked confused to him, somehow angering Bastion, which Dage did not miss.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I AM HERE SINCE THE BEGINNING! STOP FORGETTING ABOUT ME!" he yelled out loud, gaining the Attention of the entire class. Dage only pulled his hat into his face, as the other Students noticed him; he felt the curious looks from the students.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Class is going to start soon, everyone, get to your Seats!" announced Crowler, everyone rushed to their Seats, only Dage didn't seem to know, where to sit and looked hopeless around himself.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Hey, sit next to me! Come on!" Jaden yelled to him over, as Dage rushed over to him and threw himself onto the seat, which was quite comfortable. After few noisy minutes, the entire class was listening to Crowler's announcements.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Class today is quite Special, because we have a Transfer Student in our class now, Dage Kenshin! Although he is in Slifer Red, he has past the Entry Exam with very impressive Results and has great potential," explained Crowler, now the Class was staring at Dage, who felt uncomfortable at the situation.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Dude, don't have to announce that much, I just got lucky- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dage thought embarrassed, pulling his Hat more into his face.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"But enough with that lets begin the Lessons, shall we?" Crolwer said.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The lesson went quite normal, just Jaden put a paper-mask in front and fell asleep with it in the middle of the lesson, Dage only looked at him interested.

<p style="background: white;">''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Quite the sleepy Dude, aint he? Well, can't blame him- ''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dage thought and yawned, holding his Head in order not to fall asleep as well, the things Crowler was talking about, over Spell Cards and their usage was like old bread to him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-You don't learn about cards in books, ya learn them during a Duel- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he continued thinking, looking through the class, his eyes were stuck on the blond haired girl, Alexis Rhodes. She is quite the beauty, he just kept looking at her, until she somehow noticed and gave him a friendly look back. Dage on that, quickly looked away, his cheeks were quite red though.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Finally, Class was over and everyone started to get their things together, only Jaden was still in Dream Land, when Crowler was closing in. Syrus tried many times, getting him up, but without luck.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Come on Jay, if you don't get up, you'll have detention again," Syrus said, trying to shake Jaden up. Dage grabbed into his pockets and pulled out a little bag out, which he opened and carefully shook a black powder out into the palm of his hands. Then he blew the powder into Jadens Face, who immediately jumped up, sneezing and coughing like crazy, Syrus was amazed by the result.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Black Tabasco Powder, which stuff could even wake up dead dude from his grave. It's always funny to see the results," Dage giggled, as Jaden finished his sneezing.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"That was mean! Why did you do that?" he asked, his eyes were red and tearing like crazy. Dage only pointed at Crowler, who yelled at another Slifer, who had the same idea as Jaden, getting a whole block of Paper onto his desk.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I saved you from that, Dude, did you want to write at least 30 pages over Egypt?" he asked amused, still pointing at the poor fool, who had to write those pages under the peering eyes of Crowler.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Poor Guy, he just had a snooze and already that?" Syrus said pitied, as Dage slowly walked towards his bag, throwing over his shoulder.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"So, where is my Dorm, Dudes? I am not very familiar here and can get easy lost" Dage commented, as Syrus pointed to the Door.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"When you go outside, at the second path, go towards west and follow the road to the big bridge. Then you will find a house with a red cover on top. If you need help, we are reachable through this" Syrus handed him a handy-like device, which he observed from all sides.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Thanks, lil' dude. Then I will see ya there! Jaden, we will have our Duel for sure!" Dagesaid, before heading off. The Two of them looked after him, then getting up and walking towards the exit.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"How about we go to the Shop and get few card packs?" Jaden suggested, as Dage was gone, getting a nod from Syrus as answer, giving the sign to go. After few minutes, they arrived at the Shop, it was still empty, because others had still class.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Finally, no more waiting! Lets grab, what we can, Sy!" Jaden said as Syrus grinned as answer. Both of them just wanted to enter the shop, just in the same moment, Syrus PDA rang and a message of Dage was inside.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Dage? Did something happen?" he asked into the Device, Dage's face was looking at him, a very confused expression was on his face.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Uhm, you said, Slifer Red is west, correct?" Dage asked through the device, confusing Syrus.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Why that?"

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Cause I arrived at a big castle thing and the roof is blue, what happened to Slifer, did it turn blue?" Dage asked, as he starred up the Castle-like Dorm, while the Obelisk Students were looking at him with weird looks.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"…..That is Obelisk Blue, Dage and that's East from the Entrance." Syrus tried to explain, while he sweatdropped, the answer was long silence as Jin was really trying to figure out the situation.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Uhm, Dudes, could you show me the place? I suck at orientation stuff,"Dageasked embarrassed, when he saw even Teachers looking at him.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Get lost, Slifer Lifer! Think you can get into Obelisk blue? Dream on Drop-Out Boy!" some of the Obelisk students yelled at him but Dagethough did not seem to care, because he was waiting for an answer of Syrus out of his PDA.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Sure, Jaden and I will come and get ya! Just go the same way back you came AND stay on the Path" Syrus reminded, then Dage deactivated his PDA and walked away, ignoring the insults of the Obelisks.

<p style="background: white;">''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-What a bunch of Bone Heads! I hope, not all Dudes on this rock of an island are so unfriendly-  ''<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">he thought a bit disappointed, as he left the dorm.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After a little while, he met Jaden and Syrus, who showed him the way, so he could memorize it well. Moreover, after another while, they reached Slifer Red Dorm.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Welcome to Slifer Red Dorm, our most favorite Home" Jaden introduced the dorm to Dage, which looked quite wrecked at some parts for him. Even a rat ran past his feet, but he did not seem to mind.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Was a Hurricane here, or does it always looks like this, Dudes?" Dage asked, observing the entire structure.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Well, it isn't a 3 Star Hotel, but we have the best view of the Sunset in the Evening. This is now!" Syrus said, pointing at the cliff, as the sun light turned into a beautiful orange color, when the Sun sunk slowly down like an orb of fire into the ocean. Dage whistled amazed.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Dude, that totally fits the bill! I am gonna like it here for sure!" Dagesaid overjoyed, running right to the edge of the cliff like a little child and watched the Sun going down. Jaden went right next to him and they both watched, as the ocean turned black and the stars started to shine.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">*Gurgle*

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The loud growling of Jaden and Dage's Stomach got their attention back to reality.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I'm hungry, let's go and get something to chew on!" Jaden suggested, Dage's stomach growled louder as an answer.

<p style="background: white;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";">*GURGLE*

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Fine by me, hope there is something good for the welcoming Dinner, because I didn't have breakfast today," Dage said, walking after him, into the cantina of the Dorm. But when he saw the food waiting for him, he was quite surprised.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Rice, Tuna from yesterday, Vegetable and Soja Sauce, that's the dinner?" Dage counted up, when he sat down and looked at his plate. Jaden just sat down and started to devour his portion.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"If you don't want it, can I have it?" Jaden asked greedy, getting a dangerous shine in Dage's Eyes, when he grabbed his eating sticks.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Touch my Food, Dude and I might –accidently- mistake you're Hand for my Tuna" Dage joked evilly, creeping Jaden out.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"That's one way of protecting your Food" he commented, as the three of them talked about various things during the Dinner. The Hours past, until it was time for Bed, nine o'clock, Dage grabbed his bag and followed the two up the stairs.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Your room is at the end of the Way, you can't get lost now," Syrus pointed to the last door, getting an annoyed look of Dage.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Watch it, little Dude. I know, I suck at orientation stuff, but if you push it too far, your head is gonna end up in the toilet" Dage joked, making Syrus somewhat nervous, as he hid behind Jaden.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Showers are downstairs, but the Water is freezing, so don't get a fright." Jaden warned, when Dage opened his Door and entered the room. As Dage opened the door, the frightened squeaking of rats welcomed him, as they ran back into their holes. The room itself looked comfortable it had a Desk with one Computer, 3 Beds and a table, surrounded by newspapers, which served as seats.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-Well at least I have some company, even though they are not human- <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">  <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dage thought, as he walked in, only to walk with his face into a spider web, which he wiped of his face. When he looked up, he saw tons of spider webs at the ceiling.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Lucky you, you got an entire room to yourself" Jaden said, looking in from the Door, while Dage dumped his bag onto the Desk and looked at his beds.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"This is gonna be cool Dude! Three Beds all for me, which shall I try first? The top, middle or the bottom bed?" Dage thought loud, as Syrus stuck his Head carefully in.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"If you are bored, we are only two doors away. Night Jin, see you tomorrow," Syrus said, yawning loud, followed by Jaden and finally by a bigger yawn ofDage.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"I am tired, but Dage still owes me a Duel," Jaden mumbled half asleep, closing the door. When they were gone, Dage threw his Hat into a corner, the Jacket and trousers got dumped onto a Chair and then he climbed into the top bed, covering himself with his blanket, as he slowly closed his eyes.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">-These are going to be three interesting Years- were his last thought, before he closed his eyes and after a few minutes, he was already in dream land, dueling against strong opponents.

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">*Snore!* <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">

<p style="background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"It's…my draw..." Dage said in his sleep, slashing his arm around, like he was drawing a card.
