The days passed quickly for the students as they progressed through their classes.
Cooking class with Professor Sartyr, History with Stein on Tuesdays, Wednesdays with a double dose of Fusion with Banner, Gym with Miss Fontaine, Thursdays it was Crowler again, Fridays being English and Foreign Language Arts classes with Professor Sartyr again.
September turned into October, with a brief school-wide Halloween party. But it was the Friday of the first week of November that many students hit the books hard. Why?
Promotional exams.
Once every two months, the school held the first exams for students with a chance to be promoted to the dorm above. Naturally, Jaden didn't take it seriously, Syrus would try anything and everything to get a chance because he didn't study. (Y/N) just read the books quickly, as if he didn't care about the results.
--------------------------------------------------
Soon after, (Y/N) was outside, looking at the sea. He was watching on his Duel Pilot the video of the two Yellow Ra students found dead with the only evidence of what happened to them being the video showing what happened to them, even though the part showing their murder was missing and their murderer could not be recognized.
He seemed pensive as he watched the video, as if he was rehashing something.
His thoughts were interrupted by the rest of the standing Blue dorm in a hurry to get to class for exams.
He put the Duel Pilot in his pocket and quickly joined them.
"The sooner the writing part is done, the sooner I'll be done with the boring part." He thought before noticing something.
Once in the classroom, he saw that everyone was there except Jaden.
--------------------------------------------------
While the examinations were taking place, far out at sea, a fleet of naval vessels passed through the waters. Helicopters flew in tight formation around several destroyers and battleships. In the center was an aircraft carrier, several jets taking off to join the helicopters. On the deck, several men in uniform rushed about, sending orders or information to their superiors.
The captain of the carrier looked out to sea, his face stern. In his left hand was a holster with the Duel Academy logo and a handcuff on his wrist that was around the handle. A man in a dark suit approached the captain.
"We'll arrive at the Duel Academy in five minutes, sir." Said the man, waving him on.
"Very well. It's been a long trip for everyone; attacking subs, intruders and crazy card collectors. It seems like everyone wants to fight us. But everything is about to pay off. We are about to reach our goal and with the cargo. Now let's deliver the last shipment of rare cards from the Duel Academy!" Said the captain.
--------------------------------------------------
In the exam room, (Y/N) had finished his exam way ahead of everyone else and couldn't hand in the paper right away, so he decided to sleep in the time he had left.
Fifteen minutes after the test started, Jaden finally arrived but only slept with Syrus during the written test, frustrating many students that someone as talented as Jaden and (Y/N) for dueling was sleeping at this kind of exam.
Without anyone knowing, the person who Jaden beat in his entrance exam was watching.
"He's going to fail the written test, just as I suspected! All that's left is the practice test. I'm looking forward to it, especially to teach that impertinent man a lesson." He said looking at (Y/N) while thinking back to the first day of class.
