Back at Duel Academy, Jaden and Syrus were having a fun duel.

Jaden: Elemental Hero Avian, attack!

[Groans]

Jaden: And that's game.

Syrus: Deal's a deal. Guess I'm doing your laundry this week. You earned it. That comeback was awesome. You were just sitting back until that last round, and then--

Jaden: Boo-yah. That's why they call it a comeback. So, good duel?

Syrus: Good duel. Except something feels kinda weird.

Jaden: Like hungry weird?

Syrus: More like we've done this before, like deja vu.

Jaden: Know what that means? You're hungry. I get it. Want to chow down?

Syrus: Hey, now that you mention it...

Jaden: [Laughing] Syrus began to tear up.

Syrus: That's weird. Why am I crying? I'm happy. Aren't i?

Suddenly, Jaden was disappearing from Syrus' view.

Syrus: Jaden, don't leave!

Suddenly, Syrus woke up in a cold sweat. He looks around and sees that he was in some sort of cave

Syrus: Aah! Where am i? Oh, yeah. I got really upset at Jaden for dueling. But first I thought he was just dueling to protect us. But then his dueling started to put us all in danger. Then after that, things really got out of control. Jaden was dueling that fiend named Brron and then all my friends got hurt. Oh, man. I didn't think Jaden would ever treat his friends this way. I just can't believe it. Jaden was always there for us. I thought he would do anything for his friends. But that was before we came to this world. I doubt I'm ever gonna see the old J again. I guess this is who jaden really is. And I bet I'm gonna be alone here forever.

Elsewhere, the others were looking around for Syrus.

Hassleberry: What do you mean you lost him?!

Jim: I mean we lost him after he ran off.

Axel: We tried to look for him, but all we found were these two. He gestured to Alexis and Atticus.

Jim: We've been trying to find all of you, but so far we haven't made much luck looking for Syrus.

Haru: Hmm. I hope we find him soon. Jim placed his hand on Haru's shoulder.

Jim: Don't worry, mate. We'll find him in due time. Then we'll look for Jaden.

Haru: I know we will. He said looking down at the ground in shame.

Meanwhile, Syrus was strolling around looking down at the ground.

Syrus: Hm. I can't believe Haru said that to me.

"Jaden actually pulls his weight, unlike you losers! Especially you Syrus. The only thing you can do is run away from your problems."

Syrus: I still can't believe he said that to me. Guess he's not my friend anymore.

Syrus: Huh?!

Genta: Found you!

Syrus: Gah! Who are you?!

Genta: I am Genta. A member of Brron's army. And I challenge you to a duel!

Syrus: Uh, maybe some other time. Bye! Syrus made a break for it.

Genta: Hmph!

As Syrus ran away, Genta simply jumped into the air and landed before Syrus who fell on his back.
