"Should be there about now..." He looked over the address Alexis forced into his hand. He wasn't that surprised he needed a tutor, he was just surprised it was Alexis of all people. Not that he minded, Alexis wasn't bad. However, it sure had to be at an interesting time of his life. He took out the new Masked Hero deck...which he still couldn't see at all. 'It's gonna be hard to keep my mind off this...but...'

He would find a mailbox near a small pond, with the number 501; the number on Alexis' address. However, this pond was part of her front yard.

"Whooa..." He seemed surprised at the house, as he put the deck away. "Pretty nice..." He walked along the path to the front door, knocking.

"Shoot..." she hissed, still brushing her teeth in the bathroom. "Atticus! Get the door!"

After a while, the door opened. "Susie! You're early! I...oh. You're not a red head." "And you're not Alexis." "Nope! I'm her loving big bro, Atticus!" He grinned. "I think I recognize you from the tournament. Jaden, right?" He let him in. "Yeah." He stepped in. "What brings you here?" "Alexis is gonna help tutor me." "Oh...is that right?" His tone changed a bit.

And footsteps were heard from the catwalk floor, above the lobby. Which happens to be Alexis, with nothing but jeans and a gray sweatshirt. She also had books in her hands, as she walked down the stairs. "Oh you're on time. Guess I don't have to punch you for being late, after all."

"Oh yeah." He looked up at her. "We were just having a good ol' man to man talk! Ain't that right, Jaden?" He pulled Jaden under his arm. "ERK! Y.yeah...that kinda hurts..." "So, you two are just gonna study, huh? Mom and dad are out working as usual, so the living room is clear for the three of us!" "Three? You're studying to...HERK!"

With a dry look, at her brother, she pointed at another hall. ".....you....leave."

"Buuh..." That look was enough to get him off Jaden. "Iiiii think I'm gonna get to my room and clean...it's about that time anyway. Have fun kids!" He casted a brief glance at Jaden before running off. "Uh...nice bro ya got there, Alexis."

"Yeah," she said with a weak smile. "A little too nice for my taste." Clearing her throat, "Okay, we can study over in the living room." She said, walking over to the opposite hall entrance, from where Atticus fled.

"Sure." He followed along, looking around. "Gotta admit, this house it pretty sweet."

"I guess," she muttered, like she didn't care. Sure this place was almost like a mansion, but she wasn't that proud of it. Because of her parents absence, and the size of the house, this place felt too empty, it was creepy. Anywho, they arrived at a large fancy living with a massive HD TV mounted on the wall. "Guess we better get started. Did you bring any of your history homework?"

"Holy cow!" He came up to the HD TV. "This is even sweeter! My TV isn't nearly this big!" Short attention span, go.

"......" Control, she thought. Control. "Never mind...." she groaned, getting his bag herself. Searching through it, she found a form, with the Industrial Illusions logo on it. "Is this the...?"

As he went through his bag, the masked hero deck slipped out. He looked over. "Hm? Oh the form."

"Guess it got mixed in with your homework, I assume?" she smirked, pulling out said papers.

"Guess so...with everything that's been happening, I haven't had time to think about this." He sat down, taking the paper.

"Oh, one little loss. Big deal." she said, rolling her eyes, as she sat down on the couch, as well. "I lost to you and that-" Looking down, she found cards scattered around the floor, near her feet. "Masked HERO? That's your second deck, or something?"

"Well, thing is, and this sounds pretty weird...after I lost to Aster, I couldn't see my cards at all." He took the deck. "My friend Koyo suggested trying another deck, but I couldn't really see those either..."

"You can't see them?!" Yes, it sounded pretty weird. She can see the cards just fine, so... "That does sound weird." she muttered, holding a card right at Jaden for him to see.

He squinted his eyes and frowned, taking the card. "It got a bit better after I got this deck, but now I can't even see them anymore...I got no clue why."

That...seems like something out of a manga. But this is Jaden they're talking about. He is a weird card nerd. "Well, maybe all that dueling finally caught up with you, and you need to take a break from it. I dunno..." she shrugged, opening a book.

"...you think?" He blinked, and rubbed the back of his head. "Maybe you're right. But dueling's a pretty big part of my life."

"You can't exactly make dueling a career, though. Not even dueling is Yugi Muto's main occupation. Who else make ends meet by dueling?" She never met Mai Valentine...but your mileage may vary on that. "Never mind. We got some studying to do."

"Hm..." He blinked. Maybe she had a point, but either way... "Alright, let's get to it then." He opened his own book, maybe some time away from it might help the problem. Meanwhile, the older brother poked his head around the corner....

(Timeskip) "No, Jaden..." she sighed, rubbing her temples. She jabbed his homework with her finger. "Pearl Harbor was in Hawaii, not in Jamaica."

And her head dropped on the table. "I think we need a break..." she groaned.

"If you say so..." He sat back down. "..oh! Did you hear about that new school?"

"Yeah. I can't believe Chazz, Rose, and Missy transferred to that school....especially Chazz." she frowned, putting away her book.
