Everyone's back at the new dorm, some in their room but mostly in the living room.
" Hey everyone, since you guys are in this with me, i think we should here stay together " said Jaden
" Why? I thought you wanted to go look for him instead? " Bastion asked
" I wanted to go myself so that you guys won't be involved " Jaden answered " But since you guys are so eager to follow, we might as well just stay here and wait for him to come "
" If you say so " Syrus said
" Well, I think I'll get some rest, see ya later " Jaden said and left
" He's different now " Syrus told everyone
At night, just when the ship was about to leave.
" I know i told them i would stay here but i can't take the risk of involving my friends especially Alexis " Jaden thought while leaving his dorm for the ship
" Has anyone of you seen my sister? " Atticus asked panickedly as he entered the new dorm
" She could be with Jaden in his dorm " Syrus answered
" I can't find them there either " Atticus replied
" Can it be? " Hassleberry said sofly
" What is it Hassleberry? " Atticus said
" The old sarge always solve his own problems so i think he's gone by himself and Alexis followed him, i guess " Hassleberry answered
" Then let's get to the dock rightaway! " Atticus said
Just when they were leaving, Zane entered
" Jaden's on the ship now " Zane said
" Let's hurry then " Atticus said
" Its useless, the ship has already departed " Zane replied
" Why didn't you stop him? " Bastion asked
" He told us stay here and guard Duel Academy and look after Alexis for him " Zane answered
" Wait.. Alexis wasn't with Jaden? " Atticus asked shocked
" No, he was alone " Zane answered
" That's weird, i can't find her anywhere" Atticus replied
" What if she's on board with Jaden? " Syrus asked
" But I didn't see her at the dock " Zane answered
" She could've got onto the ship before you're at the dock Zane " Bastion said
" Then there's nothing we can do about it " Zane said
" Don't worry Atticus, i'm sure Jaden will take excellent care of Alexis " said Syrus
" I hope so " Atticus replied
" By the way, where's Blair? " Hassleberry asked
" Don't tell me she's on board with them? " Atticus asked
" I'm up here dummies " Blair shouted from upstairs
" What a relief " said Atticus
Meanwhile on the ship, Jaden didn't know Alexis was on board with him but Alexis knew where he was. Jaden was standing by the rail looking beyond the sea
" Guess who Jay " Alexis snuck up behind Jaden and covered his eyes with her hands
" Lex? What are you doing here? " Jaden turned to Alexis and asked
" You didn't think i would let you go alone, did you? " Alexis answered
" How did you know I was gonna leave? " Jaden asked
" I know you better than everyone else Jay " Alexis answered
" I'm sorry Lex " said Jaden " Its just that, I don't want to see any of my friends hurt because of me, especially you Lex "
" I'm your girlfriend now Jay " Alexis replied " Don't you think I should follow you wherever you go?
" But what if you get hurt because of me? I would never forgive myself " Jaden said
" I don't care Jay, as long as I'm with you " said Alexis as she hugged her boyfriend
" Do you mind me sharing a room with you? " Alexis asked " I don't have one "
" Why not? " Jaden questioned back
" I snuck into the ship " Alexis answered
" Sure Lex " Jaden replied as he opened the door to his room " Come in Lex "
" Jay, can i ask you something? " Alexis asked as she closed and locked the door
" Sure Lex, what is it? " Jaden questioned back
" Who are you always talking to? I don't see anyone but you're always talking to someone " Alexis asked
" Oh.. They're just my duel spirits " Jaden answered
" Why can't i see them? " Alexis asked
" Do you really want to see them? " Jaden questioned back
" Yeah, are they here now? " Alexis asked
" They're always with me " Jaden answered and his eye colour turned green and gold
" Here's Winged Kuriboh and he's Neos " said Jaden introducing his duel spirits
" Hi Alexis " said both Winged Kuriboh and Neos
" Hi " Alexis greeted them back and smiled
" And she's Yubel " said Jaden and she appeared right in front of Alexis and startled her
" Hahaha " Yubel laughed when she saw Alexis fell onto the floor
" Hi Yubel, you scared me " Alexis greeted Yubel
" What was that for Yubel? " Jaden almost scolded Yubel
" Just scaring your girlfriend " Yubel replied and laughed
" We should leave them alone " said Neos as e helped Alexis got onto her feet
" Oh.. Alright " said Yubel and she disappeared along with Neos and Winged Kuriboh
" They're cool Jay! I wished I can have my own duel spirit " Alexis said
" I'm sure you have Lex , you just haven't realized it yet " Jaden replied
" Really? I can have my own duel spirit " Alexis asked
" Yeah, you will Lex " Jaden answered " Its late now Lex, get some sleep, I'm getting tired "
" Ok, when will we arrive? " Alexis asked as she tucked Jaden into bed
" I don't know, maybe tomorrow night " Jaden answered
" Oh.. We still have another day on this ship? " Alexis asked
" Yeah.. Don't you wanna get some sleep Lex? " Jaden asked
" Later, i wanna talk a little walk before i goto bed " Alexis answered as she opened the door
" Ok Lex, be careful " said Jaden
" I will Jay " Alexis replied and gave a flying kiss to Jaden before closing the door
" Hope nothing will happen to her " Jaden thought before going to sleep
" I wonder how's Atti knowing I'm with Jaden now " Alexis thought as she walked to the front end of the ship " I'm sure he's ok "
" Hey beauty, how are you? " said a stranger from behind
