Chapter 14

You know what is the strangest part of going to a school that teaches teens how to play a Children's Card Game?

"Strike 3, swing out,"

Baseball is part of the curriculum!

"God Damn, this is not my game, let's just play Football!" I ranted as I was struck out for the third time by Jaden 'The Bazooka' Yuki. He threw too fucking fast! And also knows something called Slider apparently that makes the ball bend towards me, it scared me shitless the first time I saw it.

Some people in Slifer started laughing.

"SCREW YOU GUYS! I AM GOING HOME!" I shouted at them. Remembering the worst part of being in Slifer, the food, "WHERE I CAN ORDER LOBSTER AND EAT UNTIL I AM FULL! AND YOU KNOW WHAT, I MAY EVEN GET A FULL CHOCOLATE CAKE AFTER! Someone replace me!" I said as I threw the bat away and angrily stormed off.

I should have done this half an hour ago, Miss Fontaine, the only teacher in the academy with a bangable ass, was nowhere to be found. She was too busy with the Obelisks swimming class…

Swimming class with Wisteria definitely beats whatever the fuck this Baseball shit!

God, why couldn't I have been an Obelisk! Stupid Duel Academy, Stupid Kaiba, Stupid Cro-

Shit did I bump into someone? Shit it's-

"HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU ARE- Ah Konami? Yes- Yes! Of course! I was struggling to find a replacement for that failure, and here he is, hitting me right in the face, well the torso actually but thats really besides the point" he talked to himself as he got up

"Sorry about that… Doctor Crowler," right he makes a huge deal about that, no need to antagonize him,

"No problemo! Academy is tolerant towards high achievers! And you, my boy, have been rising through the ranks ever since you entered the Academy. From what I hear, you haven't lost a single duel, even against my elites you managed to keep up with them,"

Kick their asses every time is more like it, "Thank you Doctor Crowler,"

"What would you think about joining my Obelisk Blues? But before that, there is one little thing I need you to do…" he says with a creepy smile, god what is he trying to do? Is he trying to have sex with me? Was he a pedophile? A pedomaru? Did 4kids censor it? What the fuck is going on?

"Um… I don't think I would like to do that," I said trying to walk past him, but he stands in front of me, blocking my path,

"Non Non Non, it is not a big deal, you just have to defeat an Obelisk of my choosing,"

"Oh- OOOH- Yeah- Yeah sure no problem, so who is it going to be?" Oh thank God. For a moment there I thought the worst.

"You see- You see- it is…"

— That Night, Obelisk Blue Girls Dorm, Wisteria's POV —

I was just about to meet with Bright and Claire to study when I noticed I had a text from Konami [Hey :)]

[Hi] I wrote back, can't help a smile growing on my face,

[Come to the class early tomorrow, there will be a fun surprise] he wrote

Is he finally gonna ask me out? It is about time, I have been dropping hints for the past few weeks, [Sure ;)] I wrote back to him before grabbing my notebook and going to the Obelisk Girl's Library, I have a good feeling about tomorrow,

-- Next Morning, Doctor Vellian Crowler's Class, General POV --

Wisteria had arrived early just like Konami had asked, the classroom was completely empty except for one Ra Yellow that was sitting in the seat next to hers. He smiled and waved at her.

"Good you are early, you will not miss the show," he said with a large smile on his face,

Purplette raises an eye at that "What show won't I miss,"

He smiles and points towards the nametag in front of him.

She then takes notice of the said nametag, it used to belong to an obnoxious Obelisk Boy named Dante, but now it wrote [Konami Kujo]

"What? How did you manage to get into the Obelisk seat?" she asked him as these seats were normally reserved for Obelisk students, then her eyes widened "When did you transfer to Obelisk? And who did you replace?" She asked as there were finite spots for Obelisks. Well, boys at least.

"I haven't transferred yet, I still have to beat the Duelist Crowlers picked, but it shouldn't be an issue, and as for who it is… well that is gonna be revealed soon," he said with a smile,

Many names went through Wisteria's mind, the most prominent one was Dante, he was not THAT good of a duelist and his Fire Burn strategy was easy to beat with backrow removal cards, and considering that he was sitting there, it was a fair bet. Just not the right one.

A couple of minutes later the majority of the students had come in, Konami then explained that his seating arrangement had been changed by Crowler, and Dante went to his new seat, the one that used to belong to the so-called best Duelist in the Freshman class.

"Are you gonna replace HIM?!" Wisteria asks in utter surprise,

The only response she got was a smile,

"Oh this is gonna be interesting," she said returning the smile with one of her own,

A few moments later Chazz Princeton walked in as if he owned the place, he sat down in 'his', with a carefree attitude closed his eyes, and said "Drink and Massage, hurry up," he said and then heard some of the Obelisks snickering while looking at him,

"Get it yourself," one of them said

"What is wrong with you guys? I said 'Drink and Massage'. Now."

One of them approached him, "What is wrong with you? Where do you think you are sitting?" he said, barely containing himself from laughing at the pompous asses face,

"Where do you think? In my seat, of course," he said but the Obelisk pointed towards one of the Ra Yellow designated areas

"Your seat is over there," he said, with a minor smile on his face,

"What are you talking about, here is my name," he pointed towards the name seat but it said [Dante Wildstorm] "Huh? There must be a mistake," he muttered then saw Doctor Crowler walk in, "Doctor Crowler, can you tell him there has been a mistake, I don't sit with Ra Losers," he said but Crowler scoffed

"Well Mr. Princeton, maybe you should, after all, you did lose to Jaden Yuki, A SLIFER!" he shouted the last part as if he himself did not lose to the same Slifer. "And that is not all, your level of competency is in question now, you will duel Konami Kujo of Ra Yellow, and if you lose you'll swap dorms,"

"What?! You mean I'll- You mean I'll be- I'll be a Ra Yellow?!" He asked, furious that someone could even suggest he, Chazz Princeton, belongs anywhere but with the Elites!

"That's right," Crowler said and almost everyone started laughing at Chazz.

Then Chazz did the only thing he could think, and ran away,

A few seats above them a certain Ra Yellow was recording the entire thing, "Oh my god this was even better than I imagine," he said and his purple haired friend seems to agree.

"This was better than I thought this morning would be," she said "Send me a copy of that video,"

"Oh, and what would you give me as a reward?" he asked teasingly, he sometimes teased her, and she teased him back, but this time she decided to take it a step further.

"If you send me the video, and then beat him, once you transfer to Obelisk I'll let you take me out on a date," she not so indirectly asked him out with a beautiful smile on her face.

Konami was taken aback by that declaration. On one hand, he found her very attractive, and she was fun to hang out with. On the other hand, she was 15, and he was a 20-year-old trapped in a 15-year-olds body… "I…" He had thought about this issue before, but had not come to a decision on whether or not to date someone 'his' age just yet, but after a moment, and taking a look at her gorgeous scarlet eyes he threw his reservations out of window,

"Great, then it is a good thing I am going up against Princeton," he said, 'Shouldn't be a big deal… right? She is nearly 16 and have a body any woman would kill to have,' he thought to himself, "At least beating Princeton with my Monarchs should be easy enough," he muttered and Wisteria's smile got slightly larger,

-- After Class --

"Damn Konami, you bastard, already moving onto the top, huh?" Jaden playfully asked as he and Syrus approached Konami

"Well, too bad I won't have much of competition there since you seem adamant in staying a Slifer,"

He laughed it off before shrugging, "What can I say, Red is my color,"

"I get you, if there was a White Dorm, I would probably join-" he was about to say until he remembered the events of the second season, "On the other hand, never mind… Blue is a good color," he said

"Hey, I was actually thinking," Syrus began, "Yesterday you said Ra Yellow Dorm has Lobster, but there is no way that's true, right?"

"Sure we do, we also have more Fried Shrimp than Jaden can eat,"

"NO WAY!" They both shouted

"Our Headmaster is an accomplished Chef, so it wouldn't surprise me if our Cafeteria is on par if not better than Obelisk Blues," he explained, then an idea popped into his head "Hey, would you guys like to join me for dinner?"

"YEAH WE ABSOLUTELY WOULD!" They shouted simultaneously, getting Konami to take a step back,

"Ha Ha, I see… Okay then follow me," he said as he saw the two Slifers jumping in their place,

-- Ra Yellow Dorm, Konami's POV--

'Holy shit these two eat like pigs,' I thought to myself as I watched Jaden and Syrus eat without breathing "Slow down you ingreds, no one is gonna steal food away from you in this dorm," I said and Jaden took a large, anime bite out of a full lobster, he even ate its shell "How the heck did you- never mind, just slow down a bit and enjoy your food," I said and they finally nod their head.

After a moment Syrus' face shifted from happiness to sadness, probably thinking he will never reach this dorm, the dorm that both Jaden and I reached so quickly. Maybe I should give him some advice to help with all those insecurities he has?

"Look Sye, I am sure you can easily reach this dorm, or maybe even Blues if you remember three simple things," I said and he looked at me with great interest

"What Are They?" he exclaimed

I held up a finger,

"1) Have fun when dueling, because if you are not having fun you will feel frustrated and make silly misplays,"

I held up a second finger,

"2) Never underestimate yourself, always believe your deck, after all, one good draw can change the entire game," which is not the case in reality, sometimes it is impossible to win, but if he wants to cure his insecurities, this advice could go a long way,

I held up a third finger,

"3) No one is invincible, even Yugi Muto has lost duels after all. Meaning regardless of who your opponent is you always have a chance to win,"

Jaden adamantly nodded at my points, completely agreeing with all of them. Well considering his bullshit draw power, no wonder he believes all of them.

I liked doing these 3 things, it reminded me of Yusaku (Playmaker) from Yu-Gi-Oh Vrains. Maybe I should do it more often?

"Yeah but I am not as good a duelist as you two," Syrus muttered and I sighed,

Since I know what the least confident person on the island is doing, I wonder what the most overconfident guy is doing?
