Entry 14, September 23rd, 20XX

It's only a little bit before I go and duel, and I don't have much time.

I reread my last entry, and to tell the truth, I was a little disappointed in myself. I put me over my little brother! Although I am more awesome overall, I don't hate him. We're blood related, after all.

I really am quite anxious. I'd rather end this duel quickly. I can see her castle through the trees out my window. I'm sure Alexis has an even better view.

I just realized that I am now the only one who is in Obelisk Blue and actually deserves to be. I mean, Alexis was put in there by default…

Seriously, almost all the Key Keepers are Slifer Red. What's up with that? Jaden and Chazz are in it (although again, Chazz is in there by default), and Banner's technically in it…Crowler deserves to be in it…And then Bastion has a nice place in Ra Yellow.

I can hear the pebbles hitting my window, I can feel the key vibrating and glowing, and I can very plainly hear them yelling at me to come down already. Wish me luck.

Entry 15, September 25th? 20XX

I'm not really sure what happened. All I know is that I lost the duel. Syrus's soul was on the line, what could I have done? I really should have told him to stay behind… wait, maybe I did? If I did, that idiot Jaden convinced him to come along. This is why I am friends with Atticus. He doesn't drag me places where…

Hmm… I should rethink that.

I did not turn into a vampire, unfortunately. The report I got was that after I surrendered, I turned into a [very ugly] doll, which Carmella, no, Camula kept. I do not recollect this, but I imagine I wasn't very happy. Dolls suck. Or at least being one does.

The only time I see Camula bite someone, it's her soul biting my little brother to get his soul. She doesn't deserve to be called vampire. I think she should just crawl back to her miserable coffin and die… However, Jaden tells me she turned into dust after he defeated her. Damn. Now I'll never be a vampire. That plan of hers, to revive the other vampires… now there's an idea.

It got very cold in this room. I would go outside, in the continual forevermore-eth warmth to write, but then I might look strange. Seriously, how many guys write in little brown books? Not many, I bet.

Speaking of cold… and vampires… I read a book recently that grabbed my attention. A few days after reading, I realized that a bunch of idiotic fangirls were drooling over it. The vampires in there weren't even real. For one, they had a type of venom on their teeth that turns you into a vampire in three days time exactly, when in fact, EVERYONE KNOWS that to become a vampire, they drink your blood, then you drink yours. And there is no set time. The authoress by the initials S.M. (for her own protection, mind you) does not know what vampires are like at all. I'm not even going to mention the book title, it was so bad. I mean, I can write better than her.

Now that imminent threat is currently gone, my "friends" have been pestering me again. It's really starting to annoy me, so I guess I'll tell them tomorrow, when I'm not bone tired (apparently when you're a doll, you don't sleep or eat. That's very nice, and all, especially when you're a doll for over TWENTY-FOUR HOURS) and when it's not pitch dark out… wait, is that snow??? It never snows here. It's impossible, really. They created a utopian society, recently, that messed with the weather, making it warm year round and melting the ice caps. This island used to be a mountain, dude.

I wasn't kidding about the bone tired thing. Nighty-night.

Yes, I am trying to stay out of this story as much as possible. I just want to say that (a) this chapter was a little difficult to write, and sorry for any blandness; and (b) what Zane thinks isn't necessarily what I think. Sometimes it is, but sometimes it isn't. I'm sure you can understand that. If you don't, Zane does, at least.
