Chapter 1
A Day in Paradise

Chapter Description: ?just when everything is looking relaxed after Jaden's last Shadow Duel, Syrus has to come and spoil the moment!

*********************************Part 1*********************************

Jaden Yuki gazed off his favorite cliff-side shady spot into the deep, blue ocean. The sound of the waves crashing back and forth was one of the many things Jaden liked about this spot, not to mention it was convinently close to Duel Academy’s main campus building. Jaden was just getting relaxed when one of his best friends at Duel Academy, Syrus Trusdale, came running up to him, yelling, “Jayyydennn!” At the top of his lungs. Oh great, Jaden thought to him self, Whats wrong now? Syrus had a knack for screaming Jaden’s name when something was wrong.

“Jaden!,” Syrus started, panting. Jaden could tell this was going to be a long one, so he settled down and waited for Syrus’ story. “I was waiting in Counter Traps for Dr. Crowler to show up, when,” Jaden squirmed at Crowler’s name. Dr. Crowler was the head of the Obelisk Blue Dorm and everyone knew he had a particular hatred for Jaden ever since Jaden crushed him in his entrance exam to the school.

“Yeah, so what?” Jaden asked.

“Well I was waiting and waiting for Crowler to show up, but he never did!”

“No way!” Jaden was sitting up right now. Everyone knew that Crowler was egotistical in dueling due to his Ph.D in the subject and he’s never miss the chance to point out the fact.

“Yeah, and get this, Alexis was the only Obelisk to show up at all!”

“Now this is getting interesting!” Jaden yelled. The thought of an entire dorm of students dissapearing told him that something was going on at the school.

“Do you think this has anything to do with the cards locked under the school? The God Emperor Cards?” Syrus asked.

“Oh yeah, maybe. I had completely forgotten about those!” Syrus was refering to three devestating Duel Monsters cards sealed away from the world behind seven locked gates. Jaden and some other powerful duelists at the school were intrusted with the keys to the door.

“How can you forget!” Syrus said, flabbergasted, “Chumley, you, and I almost died in Atticus’ shadow game!” When Jaden didn’t respond to this, Syrus sighed heavily and walked off to their dorm, Slifer Red.

Duel Academy, the greatest Duel Monsters High School in the world, and it was divided heavily. The best, brightest, and richest students were members of the Obelisk Blue dorm. Most of them where stuck-up and rude to anyone who didn’t wear a blue blazer. The Slifer Red dorm was known for the ’Red Wonders’. Sadly, this didn’t compliment their skills, as the wonder was for “Wonder how long until they drop out.” Finally, the Ra Yellow Dorm held the average duelists, not ’lazy’ like the Slifer Reds but either not smart enough or not rich enough to be in Obelisk Blue.

Also grouped by their status was their budget. The Obelisk Blues lived in a miniature castle, while the Ra Yellows had a cofterable retreat. The Slifer Reds got a level down from a motel. They had to share rooms and they barely had indoor plumbing.

However, Jaden loved it all. From its terrible meals to rooming with Syrus and Chumley, Jaden loved it all.

“Hey Chumley!” Jaden yelled as they climbed the stairs to their second story room. “Were’ve you been?” When they opened the door to the trio’s room, Chumley was nowhere to be found. “Huh, that’s weird,” Jaden said as he climbed up to see if their missing friend was sulking in his bed like he usually did when he flunked a test.

“Is Cumley up their?” Syrus asked nervously.

“Nope, it’s weird. Hey, I know! Maybe it’s grilled cheese night and Chumley’s already at the cafiteria!” Grilled cheese sandwhiches were Chumley’s favorite food and to his approval virtually every night was Grilled cheese night.

“Well, lets go check!”
