Among the early morning, 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, 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. Just felt like being alone." He replied in a neutral voice. Alexis stood next to 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.

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 Chumely 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!"

Jaden opened his eyes and sat up in bed as a loud 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 looked him over. "You must be Jaden Yuki..."

"Uh...yeah...so what's going on?"

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

"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!"

As Syrus and Jaden walked near the interrogation room inside the school, they spot another familiar face waiting for them at the door...

"Claudio?"

The Ra Yellow duelist looked their way, and gave a sad smile. "Got you two, huh?"

"You mean, you're on campus arrest, too!?" Syrus asked.

"Yup." He replied. "Apparently, someone ratted us out that we were at the dorm."

"No way!" Jaden said. "No could know we were there except Chumley, Alexis and Melody; and they wouldn't do that!"

"I know... I tried to tell them we were chasing two dueling mercenaries, but they dismissed it before I could finish why." Claudio sighed. "Let's just get inside, to see how hard they gonna drop the book on us."

The two Slifers and Ra were now standing in a large, circular room with about five or six giant TV screens, each one with a different person on them. Three of them they knew well: Doctor Crowler, Chancellor Shephard, and the woman from the D.A.S. Not only did they know why there were they... they found out what was going to happen because of it.
