Ash Ketchum Attends Duel Academy

Duel and Unusual Punishment

Among the early morning on the island, the sun wasn't up yet; but someone was: Zane Truesdale, the highest ranking student at Duel Academy. He was standing alone near the lighthouse on the east side of the island, just staring at the sea. Later, he was joined by a friendlier person who happened to see him.

"Zane?" The top Obelisk never turned to the source, but recognized it as Alexis Rhodes. "What are doing out here?"

"Nothing. I just felt like being alone." He replied in a neutral voice with his arms crossed. Alexis stood next to him after approaching him.

"You know, with your little brother enrolled here, I thought you'd be less alone, not more." Alexis said.

"Well, that's because he doesn't belong here." He stated bluntly.

"While we're discussing Syrus, he's been a lot more confident lately." Alexis told him.

"Oh has he?" Zane raised a eyebrow.

He didn't expect Syrus to be gaining confidence and was legitimately surprised.

"Yeah, it's thanks to him." Alexis was referring to Ash.

Zane didn't say another word after that.

It was early morning when a truck filled with soldiers pulled up to the Slifer dorm. Professor Banner exited his room, "Who's playing war at this time of day?" He wondered. He looked up to see the soldiers rapidly ascending the steps. "Oh no, it's the Disciplinary Action Squad! They only show up when a student is in serious trouble, and they're heading right for Jaden's room!"

Inside the room in question, Jaden, Syrus and Chumley were snoozing away mainly because it was a free day. Unfortunately, it was cut short by a forceful knock on the door waking Jaden up.

"Open this door right now or we will break it open!" A voice shouted from the other side of the door.

Jaden opened his eyes and sat up in bed as a loud and hard knocking came from his door. Yawning, he walked over, "Oh really, you and what army?"

"The Disciplinary Action Squad Army!"

He opened the door and was surprised to see a large group of people in dark uniforms standing outside his dorm room. The woman at the front fixed him a hard glare.

The woman looked him over, "You must be Jaden Yuki..."

"Uh...yeah...so what's going on?" Jaden asked the woman.

Ignoring the question, she looked over his shoulder to one of the sleeping roommates. She frowned as she caught sight of the light blue haired boy. 

"I take it that's Syrus Truesdale?" She asked.

Jaden nodded, "Yeah...so who are you guys, and why are you here?"

The woman looked down at him as Syrus climbed out of bed and walked over. "As I said, we are the Disciplinary Action Squad and you two are under campus arrest!"

"Arrest?" Jaden raised an eyebrow, "What did we do?"

"That will be made clear to you at the interrogation." She informed them, "Now get dressed!"

Chumley and Professor Banner accompanied them to the main building to find out what was going on.

"Suspension?!" They said at the same time with shocked looks.

"Why?" Professor Banner questioned.

The headmaster of the red dorm was at a loss for why Jaden and Syrus would be suspended.

"Those two trespassed in the abandoned dorm in the woods, which is strictly forbidden."

"What are you talking about?" Chumley asked. "Jaden and Syrus never went to the abandoned dorm."
