With the defeat of Nightshroud and the world now safe, things were starting to get back to normal at Duel Academy.

However, with the classes over and the school year coming to an end, the senior students were soon to leave Duel Academy and continue on their own paths.

Within the Slifer Red dorms, Jaden Yuki laid on his bed with his hands behind his head, thinking about all he had been through the last three years.

The friends he had made, the adventures he had, the Duels and Duelists he faced, the ups and downs, everything.

That's when his thoughts turned to a certain Duelist close to him, Alexis Rhodes.

He wasn't too sure when it happened, but Jaden had developed strong feelings towards Alexis, and had eventually fallen for the blonde.

But as much as Jaden wanted to tell Alexis how he truly felt about her, he was afraid that if he did, she may not have the same feelings he held for her and could ruin their friendship, which is why kept his feelings for the Queen of Obelisk Blue a secret.

However, unknown to Jaden, there was one who knew his secret, Yubel.

After fusing his soul with Yubel's, she had gained complete access to all of Jaden's feelings and memories, particularly to how he truly felt about Alexis.

And even though Yubel didn't like to 'share' Jaden, his happiness was more important to her then her own feelings towards him, making her want what would make Jaden happy, to which she emerged from soul and by him, making the brunette turn and look at her.

"Yubel?" Jaden asked, a little surprised to see her. "What's up?"

"I know about the feelings you have for Alexis." She said, stunning Jaden.

"H... how do you? I mean..." Jaden stammered out nervously as he quickly pulled himself up.

"It's alright Jaden." Yubel replied assuringly, before she added. "After all, it is only natural you and your soul mate were meant to find each other again."

"Uh... soul mate?" Jaden asked in a confused tone, making Yubel nod.

"You have a vague remembrance of your life as Judai the Supreme King, but many of those memories had been suppressed deep within your mind. It was only recent that I learnt the truth, and I intend to set things right." Yubel replied.

Confused further, Jaden was about to ask Yubel for more information, but just as the brunette was about to speak, the eye on Yubel's forehead began to glow orange in colour, to which he couldn't take his eyes off of it.

As Jaden remained staring at Yubel, he felt lightheaded, his eyes dulled and glazed over, before they slowly closed and he fell back down onto his bed, making Yubel smile to see Jaden had fallen under her spell.

As Yubel looked upon Jaden's sleeping form, she slowly moved her left hand on his cheek and smiled.

"Rest, my king. I promise that when you awaken, you shall be reunited you with your lost love." She whispered gently, before removing her hand and heading off to find the girl who had claimed Jaden's heart.

-With Alexis-

In the girl's dorm, Alexis, who was dressed in a deep blue nightgown, was lying on her bed.

Call it fate or just a coincidence, but she too was awake, thinking about the one she loved.

"Jaden." Alexis sighed, before saying. "I wish you knew how I felt towards you."

"Perhaps I can help." A voice suddenly called, making Alexis quickly rise.

"Who's there?" Alexis called out as she got out of her bed and looked around her room. You'd better show yourself before I get mad."

Showing herself, Alexis watched as an unknown female emerged from the wall before her, making the blonde step back in worry as she gazed at the individual.

Alexis looked upon the figure, which looked quite demonic.

Her most noticeable features was her sickly-pink skin, large black wings, heterochromic eyes and a third vertically placed eye on her forehead and the black clothing that covered her chest, arms and legs.

Seeing her, Alexis asked. "Who or what are you?"

"My name is Yubel." Yubel said in reply as her body, in its transparent state then became solid.

Knowing her name, but not her motives, Alexis then asked, remaining defensive. "And what is it you want from me?"

"I wish to help reunite you with your love, Jaden Yuki." Yubel replied with a smile, which only increased when Alexis' face flushed red in a combination of shock, confusion and embarrassment.

But before Alexis could say a single word, Yubel placed her right hand on Alexis' forehead, which began to glow, making the blonde let out a small gasp before her eyes dulled and she found her mind clouding over.

Unable to withstand Yubel's power over her, Alexis' vision blurred, fading to black as she then lost consciousness.
