Chapter 22

-- Central Duel Academy Dock, Konami's POV --

"Where is Yuki?" Wis asked, she seemed slightly worried to me, but to others, she seemed confident, and collected. She did not want to give a bad impression as her first 'outing' as the Queen of the Central Duel Academy, which is quite a challenge because Jaden is our teammate,

"I am sure he'll be here, Syrus went to pick him," I said as the North Academy Chancellor walked out of the Submarine. He was a bald man, with round glasses, and a dirty beard, similar to how he was represented in the anime.

"It is good to see you, Chancellor Foster," Shepherd said, with Crowler standing next to him, he appeared shorter than he was, despite being 6'1 (1.85 meters).

"I am afraid our rowdy bunch will impose on you for a while, please take care of them," Foster said as they both shook hands,

"Not a problem, it will be our pleasure," Shepherd said

"By the way, how is Miss Dorothy, is she doing well?" Foster asked, his face getting a little red, same with Shepherd if you looked carefully,

"Of course, DOrothy is an indispensable figure in the inter school match." Shepherd said, and out of nowhere, Jaden popped out,

"Hey why don't you drop the pleasantries for a minute, and introduce my opponent, He He He" Jaden laughed but I barely held Wisteria from going there and punching 'The Cute Hyperactive One People Want To Choke On His Sleep'

"*Sigh* I apologize for my student, he is excited when it comes to dueling,"

"Ha Ha Ha, I do not mind, on the contrary, I find it to be a nice coincidence, one of my students is just like that after all Ha Ha Ha," Foster said as he motioned towards the submarine and his students walked out, they were wearing leather jackets of different colors and black or gray pants, even the girls were wearing pants instead of mini-skirts. I didn't know there were girls in North Academy, but it shouldn't be that surprising. They were a co-ed school after all, (AN: This was not shown in the anime, but it is like that in this story.)

I took a deep breath, expecting to see someone else, only to see two people wearing what looked like an Obelisk Blue shirt, one of them genuinely shocked me.

"Oh, so this is the Central Duel Academy? It looks nice, It looks nice, ah it's you!" He looked around, before running up to Jaden "You must be Jaden Yuki, I heard a lot about you," he said "I am Jesse Andersan nice to meet ya, I'll be your opponent,"

"Really? Then you better Get Your Game On," Jaden said and I could swear there were fire coming out of both their eyes,

"*Sigh* I am sorry for my teammates little outburst," a girl with Blue, Wavy Hair said, "My name is Kami Umino, I am the female representative of the North Academy and the heiress of Umino Corp,"

"No need to apologize for those, It is a pleasure to meet you Kami, my name is Wisteria Senrigan, I am the female representative of the Central Duel Academy and the heiress of the Senrigan Group," Wis said and shook her hand, there was a little spark between them, but nothing like the inferno going on between Jaden and Jesse,

"Who will be your third representative, Foster?" Shepherd asks after seeing me remain silent, and a man wearing Black variant of the Duel Academy Uniform walks out.

"That would be me," Chazz Fucking Princeton said… of course. Honestly, I expected to see him, but I suppose I was hoping he would die in a ditch or something, and I would duel someone else. Oh well, hopefully I can humiliate him on a televised platform. The Duel Tube does not have a large audience unless you or your opponent is nationally ranked pro duelist.

As I was lost in my thought a strong wind rushed to the dock, we could now hear helicopter noises,

We looked up, and they had the logo of Princeton Corp,

"Hello Chazz, how are you doing?" A man who looked similar to Chazz, albeit with a far less weird hair said

"Slade… Jagger… What are you doing here?" Chazz asks,

"Of course, we are here to give you our well wishes for your victory," one of them, I think Jagger said, as they exited the helicopter "Don't cause us to worry, Chazz,"

"Camera two, get a close-up of the younger Princeton next," a film crew appeared out of nowhere.

"What's all this fuss about?" Chancellor Foster asked

"Oh? You didn't hear?" director asked "This year's inter school tournament will be broadcast on TV, on a grand scale, to the whole country,"

"EH?!" Jaden and Jesse shouted together, "You mean my face is gonna be shown all over Japan?!" They screamed into the camera together,

-- Half an Hour Later --

Chazz and his brothers were in an empty meeting room in Central DA,

"What are you trying to do here?" Chazz asked his brothers

"Isn't it obvious?" Slade asks before answering "This TV broadcast, is the first step in the plan to turn our pledge among brothers into reality,"

"Plan?" Chazz asks, seeming confused,

"That's right, the plan for world domination by Princeton Group! The Political World by me, Bus iness World by Jagger, and Duel World by you, Chazz. But you have been Slacking a lot, I hear you have gone AWOL three months ago!" Jagger said,

"But it is not all lost, even if you are the loser of this family, you can still make a come back, after all you did somehow manage to become the representative of the North Duel Academy," Slade said

"And remember, Chazz, our Princeton Group is sponsoring this TV broadcast, so you'd better not lose!" Jagger said

"In here, is a mountain of rare card," Jagger said as he handed Chazz a briefcase field with cards "We bought this using our vast fortunes, you are going to use these to build the ultimate deck! So you have no excuse for your failure! Do you hear me! You had best not do anything to tarnish the name Princeton!"

Chaz looked down but nonetheless nods his head, not knowing what to do.
