That night, Alexis didn't go back to her room but instead she went to Jaden's old Slifer Dorm room until the next morning. The first thing she did before waking up was go check on Jaden. She picked some flowers in the park along the way.
" Jaden, I brought you some flowers " said Alexis
" Ah! " gasped Alexis while droppping the flowers from her hands when she saw that Jaden was not on his bed
Alexis ran around the academy to search for Jaden and finally found Jaden dueling Chazz in duel arena. However, the duel had already started when she reached there.
Jaden's LP: 2900
Jaden's hand : 3
Jaden's monster: Flame Wingman ATK 2100, Neos ATK 2500
Jaden's facedown: 2
Chazz's LP : 3600
Chazz's hand: 4
Chazz's monster: Armed Dragon Lv. 10 ATK 3000
Chazz's facedown: 0
" You'll never defeat me Jaden " shouted Chazz " Armed Dragon Lv. 10 attack his Flame Wingman "
Armed Dragon Lv. 10 ATK 3000, Flame Wingman ATK 2100
Jaden groaned a bit while his LP decreased from 2900 to 2000
" Come one Jaden, you can do it! You've never lost to Chazz before " screamed Alexis
Jaden ignored Alexis and drew a card from his deck
" I play Pot Of Greed which allows me to draw 2 new cards " said Jaden " Next i summon Flame Scarab "
" Now, Contact Fusion to fuse Flame Scarab and Neos together to form Flame Neos "
" For every spell or trap card in play, my monster gains 400 attack points "
" What?! No way, that means your monster is... " mumbled Chazz
" Yes, now my Flame Neos has more attack points than your Armed Dragon " shouted Jaden
Flame Neos ATK 3300, Armed Dragon Lv. 10 ATK 3000
" AAAHHH! " cried Chazz while is LP decreased from 3600 to 3300
" Then, i play Contact Out! " shouted Jaden " Now my monsters get to attack you again! "
" NOOOO! " shouted Chazz as his LP turns to nothing
" That's game " said Jaden after he won
" Has Jaden recovered? He's saying his favourite catch phrase! " Alexis thought
" Are you ok? " Jaden asked Chazz
" Yeah, i'm fine slacker " replied Chazz
" Slacker? " asked Jaden
" Whatever... " replied Chazz and walked away
" Jaden, are you ok? " Alexis asked Jaden as he approached to Jaden who just collapsed
" I'm fine, I just need a little rest, that's all " answered Jaden " Why do you treat me better than the others? Can i know? "
Alexis blushed a bit but still managed to answer without showing any nervousness " Its nothing, its just what friends do "
" So we were friends? " asked Jaden " I can't remember anything about friends but i did remember something "
" What is it that you recall? " asked Alexis eagerly
" That duelist earlier, I remember the dragon he summoned " answered Jaden " but i can't remember when and where "
" You dueled him here before on this very same arena 5 years ago " replied Alexis who was joyed that Jaden is starting to remember things
" No wonder it felt like i've seen it before " said Jaden before walking back to the clinic with Alexis's help
" Were you important to me? " asked Jaden suddenly while they were halfway back to the clinic
" Huh? Why do you ask? " Alexis was shocked and questioned back
" Nothing, just wanna know " replied Jaden
" Just friends " answered Alexis before entering the clinic
" Don't ever leave the bed again, ok? " Alexis insisted Jaden while he returned to the bed
" I'll try " replied Jaden as Alexis left the clinic to look for the others
After a while at the cafeteria,
" You're late Lexi, where have you been? " asked Atticus as soon as Alexis entered
" I was just checking on Jaden, that's all " answered Alexis
" So how is he? " Zane asked
" He's ok, he just won Chazz in a duel earlier and he recalled back Chazz's Armed Dragon " answered Alexis
" So you're saying that his memory is returning? " asked Syrus
" Yeah, I guess so.. " replied Alexis
" I think if we continue to duel Jaden, his memory will recover " said Bastion
" Yeah, we should duel him right away " Atticus continued
" NO! Not until his wound are completely healed " Alexis yelled at everyone " He collapsed after dueling Chazz, he's still weak "
" Wow! Chill Lexi! I'm just saying it " Atticus replied with a huge innocent smile
" We'll wait for him to recover then I'll duel him " said Syrus " I'm sure he remembers Cyber End Dragon well and he was my best friend after all "
" Yeah, but he's my brother-in-law so i should duel him " said Atticus
" Since when did you become his brother-in-law? " Alexis glared at Atticus while asking
" Since yesterday, you have been treating him like he's your husband Lexi in case you hadn't notice " answered Atticus
Alexis blushed instantly after hearing what her brother said. All of a sudden, Jaden entered the cafeteria but was barely able to stand properly
" Great, I seriously hope he didn't hear what Atti said " Alexis thought to herself
" You looked familiar " said Jaden weakly while pointing at Syrus " Are you Syrus? " asked Jaden
" You remember me? " Syrus questioned back at Jaden
" No, but I remember that hair of yours " giggled Jaden while talking
" What are you doing here? You should be in bed! " said Alexis
" I followed a Winged Kuriboh here " said Jaden " Anyone of you saw it? "
" No, we didn't see anything.. " replied Atticus
" I'll escort you to your bed right now! You need as mush rest as you can get! " said Alexis while pulling Jaden back to the clinic
" But.. I.. " Jaden mumbled before leaving the cafeteria
" Alexis really cares too much of him, but heck, i don't mind " said Atticus
" You talking to yourself Atticus? " said Zane coldly
" HEY! " shouted Atticus " I'm just happy for my sister "
Back at clinic..
" You have to stay in bed until your wounds are properly healed, do you understand me? " Alexis ordered Jaden "And especially no duels "
" But... " said Jaden before Alexis interrupted him
" No buts Jaden, I'll stay here and watch over you " said Alexis
" Fine " replied Jaden softly
