I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh GX!

(Since I love this show so much, I decided to do a retelling of it if some people had there gender changed! If you don't like gender changed stories then you might as well leave now since there is going to be a lot. Right now, the few people that are gender changed are Jaden=Jayla, Syrus=Sylvie, Chazz=Chrystal, and Alexis=Alex. And since there genders are changed, I decided to change their decks as well. Jayla is going to be using a Gem-Knight deck for duels and will have Kuribon instead of Winged Kuriboh. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy.)

The sun was shining brightly on a clear blue sunning day as many people were walking down streets to meet up with friends, going to work, or just enjoying the calm peaceful day. However, one person didn't have time to enjoy the peaceful day as she was running for her life to get to this once place on time. This person was a female that looked about sixteen with brown hair with a little orange on the top that was pulled back in a ponytail. She had brown eyes and was dressed in a red t-shirt with a black jacket, black pants, and red and white running shoes. She also had a blue backpack on her back that held her duel disk and a few other things she needed.

"Alright, I got my deck, I got my gear and I got about two minutes to make it to the Duel Academy entrance exams before they start. Oh well, at least since I'm not a student there yet, they can't throw me into the detention hall for being late." The girl laughed at her own joke as she continued to run like the wind.

"Excuse me! Coming through! How you doing?!" The girl yelled as she ran past some people who gave her the weird look. The girl didn't noticed or didn't really care if she did.

"Hey watch your back!" The girl yelled to someone that was in front of her as she tried to stop running but couldn't in time as she bumped right into someone and fell to the ground, her duel disk and her cards had fallen out of her backpack and fell to the ground all over the place along with the girl.

"Sorry about that." The girl said over her shoulder to the guy she just hit with a sheepish grin as she started to pick up her fallen cards along with her duel disk.

"You're a duelist, aren't you?" The guy asked the girl who turned around to look at him with a smile.

"Yup, I'm just going to go try out at the academy." The girl answered as she finished picking up her things and stood up.

"You don't say;" The guy let out a small chuckle as he took out a card from his deck holder and held it out to the girl.

"Yeah," The girl laughed as she scratched the back of her head before she finally got a good look at the guy she hit and said in surprises; "Hey aren't you…"

"Why don't you take this? Something tells me that it belongs with you." He said as he gave the card he was holding out to the girl.

The girl looked down at the card in surprised. This was a card she never seen before. It looked like female version of Kuriboh with a long tail with a red ribbon at the end of it. The card said her name was Kuribon.

"Wow, for real?" The girl asked in disbelieve as the guy started to walk away.

"Good luck," He said with a wave of goodbye.

"Hey wait!" The girl called as she turned around and the guy stopped. "Thank you, I'll make you proud." She said with a smile and a bow. The guy smiled at that as he gave her a thumbs up before he started walking off again.

The girl just stared in awe for a few seconds before she looked down at her new card, Kuribon. She then looked around when she heard a humming sound which took her by surprised. What was that? She wondered as she looked around to make sure it wasn't some type of animal.

The girl then froze for a second when she just remembered something. "Oh no; the exams!" She then started running off again as she placed Kuribon with her other cards. "I can't be the Queen of Games if I'm late to the games!"

"Well ladies, that's it. Mark all the no-shows, no shows." A man dressed in a black uniform with black sunglasses told two women that were working on the sign in duty.

"Wait!" Someone yelled which took the guy and the two girls by surprised when they heard that. "I'm no no-show!" The voice yelled again that come from the rail that some cars were parked next to. You could hear leafs being moved as someone was trying to pull them self up the rail. It turned out the person that had yelled was the girl from before. "You can count Jayla Yuki as present thank you just so long as I don't lose my grip." Jayla gave a peace sign with a sheepish grin. "Uh…a little help please?" She asked with a laugh.

...

Meanwhile inside the building, duels were still going on to see who would get into Duel Academy. On top of one of the stands was a short blue haired girl with glasses and gray eyes and she was dressed in a dark blue uniform. She wiped her arm across her forehead trying to get rid of some sweat just as Jayla come running up behind her.

"Wow, look at them go." Jayla said with a smile from excitement, watching the duels going underway while the bluenette looked like she was trying not to freak out from surprise.

One of the duels that Jayla was watching was between a black haired guy dueling against a blue coated examiner that was wearing sunglasses. The boy had 3200 life points while the examiner only had 1900 life points left. It looked like the black hair guy was about to win but the examiner had two defense type monsters on the field while the guy only had a Vorse Raider and one face down.

"Alright new guy, you got two monsters staring you down. Do you A) Throw in the towel, B) Beg for mercy, or C) Run home to Mama?" The examiner taunted the boy.

"I'll go with D) None of the above!" The boy replied as he activated his facedown which turned out to be Ring of Destruction and he placed it on his own Vorse Raider. His monster was destroyed and both players took damage but the examiner lost the last of his life points.

"Clever move, applicant, welcome to the academy." The duel examiner praised.

The boy bowed with respect. "Thank you oh wise proctor." He replied.

On the other side of the stands, three girls were sitting in their seats. They were all wearing female Obelisk Blue uniforms since they were already enrolled in the school.

"That guy is pretty good don't you think, Chrystal?" One of the girls asked who had blue hair and glasses just like the other one but this was a lot taller than the first one.

"Guess the rumors about him being some kind of whiz guy were true, huh Chrystal, huh?" The other girl added who had dark brown hair.

The girl that they were talking to was leaning back in her chair with her arms stretched out from behind her. She had long black hair that went down to her shoulders and dark grey eyes. "He's a punk," The girl they named Chrystal spat, unimpressed by this. "We went to Duel Prep School for the past three years. We're ready for the Academy. These kids don't know what they're in for. But they'll learn, the hard way, the Chrystal Queenton way." She smirked at that.

"Man that last guy really tore it up down there." Jayla said with her arms crossed over her chest, impressed by that guy's dueling skills.

"Yeah, that's Bastion Misawa." The bluenette girl said which made Jayla look down at her. "It's said that he got the highest written exam score out of all us applicants."

"Wow, I just barely passed." Jayla said even more impressed about this guy.

"Yeah me too; my name's Sylvie by the way, nice to meet you. I kinda have this thing about getting test anxiety. I don't know how I won my match." Sylvie lowered her head in shame at that.

"So you're in." Jayla said with a giant grin on her face as she clapped Sylvie on the back, making the small girl tumble forward and almost fall over the railing. "Congrats to you on that, I'll be in as soon as I win my duel."

"Wait, you haven't dueled yet?" Sylvie asked looking at Jayla who just simply answered with a "nope". "Then you might have a problem; I think this was supposed to be the last one."

Jayla just gave the shocked anime face.

...

Around the same time as this, at the bottom of the arena sat a bunch of Duel Academy's teachers who were talking about this year's students.

"Looks like we've got a pretty good crowd this year;" One of the teachers said.

"Yes indeed;" Another teacher agreed.

Within this group of teachers was another one that was just sitting there not talking to anyone but just watching the duels. This teacher was male but looked very much like a female with all the makeup he wore and his blond hair in a ponytail. He was dressed in a teacher blue blazer that had gold shoulder plates and trimmings along with a ruffled pink collar. He was just about to leave but was stopped when the guy from the sign in duty who was working with the two females come in to talk to him.

"I'm sorry to interrupt but I have one last applicant who has arrived to take her exam, Mr. Crowler." He told the female looking teacher.

"Excuse me? Did you just call me, 'mister'?" Crowler asked with a scowled.

"I'm sorry. I'm new here Miss…."

"I have a PHD in dueling thank you and I earned the title 'doctor'!" Crowler snapped before he looked away. "Now tell this young lady that she'll have to come back next year."

The other teachers looked at him, all of them frowning at his choice.

"Come on, Dr. Crowler, we have time for one more."

"Yes, let's give this duelist a fair shot."

"She was just a little bit late, that's all."

"LATE IS RUDE!" Crowler finally snapped as he slammed his hands down making everyone in the room shut up. "I have no time for slackers even if she is a girl."

Just then, Crowler's phone stared to ring and he pulled it out of his pocket to answer it. "What?" He asked the person who was on the other line in annoyance.

"It's Sheppard;" The person on the other side said and with that name, Crowler's angry mood turn into a good one.

"Oh, Chancellor Sheppard;" Crowler said who was doing an amazing job of not showing any angry in the call.

"I'm just calling to make sure everything is running smoothly, Crowler. We wouldn't want a repeat of what happened last year. When you cut a third of our student applicants for some ridiculous reason; calling you 'Mr.' or Mrs.'? Whatever just make sure everyone get a fair shot." Chancellor Sheppard told him which made Crowler bug out for a few seconds.

"Yes of course, sir." Crowler replied as he hanged up and he let out a small scowl. Furry-chinned windbag; doesn't he realize that there are enough talentless flunkies at this school? But he's the boss and if he wants to give this slacker a duel then fine. Crowler thought as he stood up and started walking out of the room. "Pardon me, gentlemen, I'll be right back." He said.

"But sir, who will be the girl's dueling proctor and which exam deck should we use?" Once of the teachers asked holding up a case filled with the testing decks.

Crowler just huffed as he continued to walk away. "Oh leave that to me;" He answered with an evil smirk.

...

Back with Jayla and Sylvie who were talking about how Jayla might have just lost her chance about getting into this place but they stopped talking when Bastion Misawa had taken a seat right below them and was taking off his duel disk.

"Tight duel, Bastion;" The newly enrolled student looked up when Jayla said that.

"Thank you," Was all he said back.

"By the looks of it, you might just be the second best duelist here." Jayla continued with a smile which made Bastion and Sylvie looked at her in surprise. Before either one of them could say anything, the loudspeakers cut them off.

"Jayla Yuki, please report to Dueling Field 4!"

"Well that's my cue;" Jayla said with a grin as she started off down the stands but was stopped when she pasted Bastion who asked;

"Wait, if I'm second best then who's first?" The boy asked in confusion.

Jayla smirked at that as she pointed at herself. "It's what I'm best at." Was all she answered with before she continued her way down to her dueling field.

"Wow, she seem so sure about herself. I wonder if she really that good?" Sylvie mumbled to herself in wondered.

"You better hope she is, look who she's dueling." Bastion replied also wondered the same thing but was also wondering anything thing. Why do I have a feeling I heard that name before?" He wondered.

Jayla rode up a platform to her dueling arena, looking at everything in amazement. If this place looks this cool then the Academy is going to look ten times better. She thought.

Crowler was standing on the other side of the field getting his duel vest on and ready along with his deck as he looked at Jayla and said; "Oh right, test time! So miss, what's your name?" He asked making Jayla finally looking over at him which made her stand tall with her arms to her sides.

"Uh Jayla, Jayla Yuki;" She answered.

"Well uh 'Jayla Yuki', I'm Doctor Vellian Crowler, the Department Chair of Dueling Techniques here at Duel Academy."

"Wow, a department chair? I had no idea. From the way you were dressed, I thought you were some kind of weird academy mascot." Jayla replied rubbing the back of her head, sheepishly. The act and comment made Crowler's face go red with anger which also made a few students laugh or went very quiet since they knew who Crowler really was.

"Now that she mentions it…" The girl with blue hair and glasses sitting next to Chrystal said.

"This girl's got some lip, huh Chrystal?" The other girl asked looking over at their leader.

"I think I'm gonna enjoy watching Crowler mop the floor with our mouthy little friend down there. I only wish he treated all the second rate duelists the same way too." Chrystal answered with a smirk. "Now girls, let's just sit back and enjoy the show."

...

Meanwhile on the very top of the stands that Chrystal and her girls were sitting at were two guys who were about to watch this match take underway as well. The first one had dark blue hair and gray eyes and wore a senior year Obelisk Blue uniform and he had his arms crossed over his chest. The other male had short blond hair and hazel eyes. He was wearing an Obelisk Blue blazer jacket and blue jeans and he was leaning against the railing.

"So Zane, do you think this girl is really good to be dueling against Crowler or just someone that pissed him off?" The blond asked looking out the corner of his eyes to look at his friend.

"This is Crowler we're talking about here, Alex. He wouldn't be wasting his time even if he was dueling against a famous duelist." Zane answered. "Now let's just see if this girl can survive."

Alex just shrugged at that before he turned his attention back to the dueling field.

...

Back on the field, Jayla was staring in amazement as Crowler activated his Duel Vest. "Hey, that's pretty sweet, teach. How do I get one of those super cool duel blazers?" She asked from excitement.

"Oh a lot of hard work and extremely high marks." Crowler answered as he thought; Of course, you have to be accepted first which I will make sure doesn't happen.

"Well I'm ready," Jayla said snapping Crowler out of his train of thought.

"Let's duel!" They both said at the same time as their duel finally started.

(Jayla: 4000 Crowler: 4000)

"I'll go first, teach." Jayla said as she drew a card from her deck and smirked at what she got. "I'll play Gem-Knight Tourmaline in defense mode!"

A warrior in golden armor appeared on Jayla's side of the field kneeing down with his card under him. (Atk: 1600 Def: 1800)

Crowler's eyes widing at the monster from surprised since he never heard or seen that monster before in his life. "What is that thing?!"

"Gem-Knight? I never heard of that type of monster before." Sylvie said to Bastion who just said;

"I knew I heard Jayla's name before." The boy mumbled which made Sylvie stare at him from confusion before Bastion finally answered; "Pegasus made this group of one of a kind cards called the Gem-Knights based on crystals and gems and things like that. I heard that many people were going to pay a whole lot of money just to get their hands on them since they are very powerful but Pegasus said he already gave them away to a little girl whose family passed away a few days before they were released. All he said was that the little girl's name was Jayla but he didn't say her last name. But I didn't think that this Jayla was the same one."

"Wow so she has a one of a kind deck? Who knows what else she got hidden in there?" Sylvie mumbled in wondered.

"And since you're already shocked as it is by my gem warrior, I'll end my turn at that. Your move, teach." Jayla finished her turn.

Crowler shook his head from annoyance at that as he drew his card from his deck. I will not have this slacker make a fool of me. So she has a deck I never seen before, big deal. Since I'm using my own personal deck rather than one of those test decks, I'll be sending this slacker home in no time. He thought with an evil grin. "First I'll play two cards face down and then I'll play Heavy Storm! This magic card destroys all magic and trap cards on the field!" Two cards appeared face down in front of Crowler but were soon destroy when a strong gust of wind blew over the field.

"Uh teach, not to be a back sit driver here but you do know that you just destroyed your own cards right?" Jayla asked thinking maybe this teacher wasn't too bright in the head for a second but when two golden serpents like token appeared on his side of the field, Jayla decided to change her mind.

"Oh young girl, didn't you ever think that I wanted my two face downs to be destroyed? Since the two cards I destroy were Statue of the Wicked, I can summon out two wicked tokens to the field." Crowler continued his move which made Jayla frown at his little comment before she smiled.

"Sweet play, teach. I wish I could do something like that." Jayla said making Crowler feel a little bit proud before he got annoyed at himself for feeling pride from a slacker.

"A card that strong can't be in a test deck. That elitist snob is using his own deck." Alex rolled his eyes at that from annoyance. "I guess Crowler doesn't care that he's dueling against a girl anymore."

"You're too soft sometimes, Alex." Zane said making the blond look over at him. "I just hope we get to see that legendary rare card Crowler had stashed in that deck of his."

"Maybe but I kinda want to see what else this girl has in her deck as well." Alex added looking at her Gem-Knight. "That Tourmaline of her's can't be all she has."

"Now, I'll sacrifice my two wicked tokens to summon out my Ancient Gear Golem in attack mode!" Crowler yelled as the two snake tokens disappeared in fire and as soon as they were gone, a giant made out of rusted old gears and metals appearing on the field behind Crowler. (Atk: 3000 Def: 3000)

"So that's Crowler's great beast? I guess I won't get my wish." Alex said trying his best not to sound to disappointed.

"So Miss Yuki, are you scared of my great Ancient Gear Golem?" Crowler taunted but all Jayla did was grin.

"Are you kidding? I always wanted to take one on." Jayla answered which made a lot of people in the stands gasp.

"Wow, she's either brave or nuts." Sylvie said but Bastion just shook his head.

"She must have a card in her deck that she knows can beat that thing. The question is if she can drew it or not." Bastion corrected the small bluenette.

"Oh you think you can beat my great beast? Fine, how great do you think you are when my Ancient Gear Golem destroys your Tourmaline?! Ancient Gear Golem attack now!" Crowler commanded his monster.

The giant monster brought its arm back and sent it fist right thought Jayla's Gem-Knight Tourmaline and destroyed it. But the attack didn't stop there as its fist continued flying as it went right thought Jayla making the young female duelist gasp from the surprise attack.

(Jayla: 2800 Crowler: 4000)

"Even if your monster was in defense mode, it still won't protect your life points against my golem because of its effect." Crowler laughed as he ended his turn.

"Wow, you're just full of surprises, teach." Jayla said as she drew her next card and she was surprised when she drew Kuribon, the card she was given not that long ago.

Hey, it you. Jayla thought with a smile as she stared at her new card. Kuribon winked at her which made Jayla blink a few times to make sure she wasn't seeing things. I guess that means you want me to play you huh? She looked over at the rest of her hand and nodded. "Okay, I summon Kuribon in defense mode." The female version of Kuriboh appeared on her side of the field with her tail wrapped around herself as a shield from attacks. "I also play one card face down and that's all for now."

Crowler burst out laughing at that. "For now? Miss Yuki, did you not just hear a word I just said about my golem's effect? Even without it, I can still crash your furball in a second. Well let's just get this over with if you want to loss so badly. Ancient Gear Golem attack and end this duel!"

Once again, the giant monster brought its arm back and sent it fist right at the little monster. Kuribon put on a brave face but it still got hit by the attack and was destroyed in seconds.

Jayla covered her face to shield herself from the blow. Sorry Kuribon; She thought.

Crowler looked at her in annoyance. "Check your life points; they should have dropped to zero by now."

"No, there fine. When Kuribon is destroyed, I take no Battle Damage at all this turn." Jayla said as she held up a card that turned out to be Kuribon. "Oh and I get my little friend back. Oh but don't worry, you get something out of this to, teach. You get Life Points equal to the ATK points of your monster."

(Jayla: 2800 Crowler: 7000)

"You're a fool, Miss Yuki. Why would you play a card that you knew was going to be destroyed and give me life points at the same time but yet, you still played it?" Crowler asked.

Jayla shrugged. "Because Kuribon wanted to be in the duel too and besides, I just needed one more turn before I could play this." Jayla's facedown rose up. It was a picture of a cave with many gems that were glowing.

"Now what is that card and what does it do?" Crowler asked in annoyance since he wanted this duel to be over by now.

"This card is called Soul Gem. It lets me bring back one Gem or Gem Knight Monster Card from my graveyard for how many turns it's been on the field and summon it to the field. It also gives my monster 500 more attack points. So come on back, Gem-Knight Tourmaline!" Jayla explained before her golden tourmaline knight reappeared on the field in attack mode (Atk: 1600-2100 Def: 1800).

"Yes all very well indeed but I will still destroy that thing again on my next turn." Crowler said as he ended his turn.

"There won't be a next turn, teach, since I'm going to win this thing now." Jayla said with a grin as she drew the one card that she needed to win this.

"Oh very funny, Miss Yuki, but nothing in your deck can save you now." Crowler laughed.

"Maybe right now but I still have a few tricks up my sleeves starting with playing Gem-Knight Amber in attack mode." Another golden yellow warrior appeared next to Tourmaline, looking ready for a fight (Atk: 1600 Def: 1400).

"Yes all very nice but that monster can't save you either."

"I wasn't finish yet, teach. I now play Particle Fusion! This card allows me to fuse my two Gem-Knights into one to form, Gem-Knight Topaz!" Jayla smiled as her two golden warriors fuse together and out came another golden taller knight with a black cape on his back (Atk: 1800 Def: 1800).

"Your monster is still too weak." Crowler shook his head. "I can understand if you'll trying to give up but…"

Gem-Knight Topaz: (Atk: 1800-3900 Def: 1800)

Crowler's eyes widing at the sudden attack points going up. "Hey! How did your monsters attack go up so much?!"

"It's because I fused my monster with Particle Fusion. If I remove it from play after use, I can give my fusion monster the attack points of one of the fusion material monsters I used to create it. Sure it just for the first turn before it turns back to normal but just one turn is all I need to finish this duel up." Jayla looked over at Topaz. "Now let's end this, Gem-Knight Topaz!"

The knight nodded as it changed at Ancient Gear Golem and cut the monster down to size with his twin-bladed tonfa.

(Jayla: 2800 Crowler: 6100)

"Oh good try Miss Yuki, you might have destroy my great beast but I still have more life points then you do and on your next turn, you knight will be weak." Crowler pointed out but Jayla shook her head.

"Gem-Knight Topaz has two amazing effects, teach. You lose life points equal to your monster's attack points and Topaz can attack twice each turn. Add that all together and you loss." Jayla said before she smiled. "Still, it was a great duel. I had fun, teach."

"Wait what?!" Crowler yelled just as Gem-Knight Topaz attacked him with his tonfa making Crowler scream in pain.

(Jayla: 2800 Crowler: 2200)

This can't be?! How could I have lost to a slacker?! Crowler thought as he looked up when he heard something and screamed again as his Ancient Gear Golem come crashing down on him in pieces.

(Jayla: 2800 Crowler: 0)

The people in the stands were all gasping at Crowler being taken down like that but the most surprised was Chrystal.

"What?! There's no way Crowler could have been taken down by that slacker!" The girl started cursing making hear two friends cover her mouth to make her be quiet.

"That girl's got a future here, huh Zane?" Alex asked with a smirk as he looked back over to his older friend but the boy was already walking away. Alex just shook his head before he looked back at the arena where Jayla was cheering.

"I'm in the Academy! I did it!" She yelled to all the people in the stands as she flashed peace signs everywhere before she looked down at her Kuribon card. "We're both in and from here on out, you and I will be partners." She smiled.

Kuribon just winked back once more.


This is where all the made up cards I had in this chapter will go at the end:

Soul Gem-Spell Card-For as many turns as this card has been on the field face down before you activated it, you can special summon 1 "Gem-Knight" or "Gem" monster from you're graveyard for each turn. That/those monsters gain 500 Atk points. Picture: A cave with many gems in it that are glowing.
