A,N: Now there is coming a lot of Shadow riders plot now. I hope you all like it!.

Normal P.o.v.

It was a beautiful day at the duel academy. Everything was back to normal. Tara was no longer a Tiger, and Bastion was no longer love struck by Tanja. However Jaden and Syrus had a fight! Jaden had by accident sold Syrus's bed and he got angry. However that problem got solved, when Jaden actually got kidnapped by a pirate. Jaden was gone for over a week, with drived Tara and Syrus crazy! However Jaden managed to escape and is now back at the duel academy. And here begins our story..

Unknown's p.o.v.

Assembled in a cave was 4 people gathered. They were polishing their weapons, so they were ready for battle. They all were grinning.

”We have been waiting for this day in a long time!” said one of the voices. 

”I know! I can't believe that the boss is coming!” said the second one. 

”Of course he is coming!” said a third voice ”After all the final pieces are finally here!”. They others mumbled a little. 

”Or they will be, when we activate the plan at least!” said a fourth voice.

”There is no one who can stop the dark scorpions now!” said they all in unison. 

Tara's p.o.v.

Tara was standing in the hallway. She felt a little sad. Since that event with Tanja! Tara couldn't believe that she lost that duel! She couldn't remember much of being a tiger anyway, only Jaden's screaming voice when he was saving her! However now that she lost, and even through Jaden took her key away from her, the twins couldn't split the key again. Tara didn't feel good about having Jaden to take all the responsibility. She felt so useless now! Tara sighed a little again. 

”Who is signing on such a beautiful day!” said a voice and Tara turned around, and saw Zane standing behind her. Tara sighed relieved. 

”Oh it is you Zane!” said Tara and looked out of the window again. Zane was standing beside her now. Without any warning, Zane grabbed Tara and pulled her into a big hug. Tara got totally surprised. 

”Zane what are you doing!” Tara screamed surprised ”Why are you hugging me?!”.

”So I can't hug my girlfriend?!” said Zane and grinned ”You have that depressed look on the face! I don't like that!”. Tara looked down at her own feets.

”So do you want to tell me what's wrong!” He asked. Tara was about to say something, but got interrupted by a screaming voice. 

”Oh I know whats wrong!” said the voice and Jaden walked down the hallway towards them. Tara flinched. She didn't want to face Jaden right now! She was trying to get out of Zane's arms. Jaden grinned a little. 

”Hold her there Zane!” said Jaden ”She is trying to run away from me again!”. 

”I am not running away!” said Tara, but in reality she was. Zane kept her in his arms. 

”Your little problem is that duel with Tanja!” said Jaden when he was standing beside them ”You regret that you lost! But not only that! Your ashamed that you used ”Gatling dragon” in that duel! And you are afraid to face me too”. 

”What's with that dragon!” asked Zane confused. Tara looked down in the ground. Jaden took a card up from his pocket. It was the dragon. 

”It is a gift Tara got when she was little. From our uncle!” Jaden said and sighed ”But since Tara can't forgive him right now, she has a hard time playing this card! And when she do, she is either to angry or too distracted! But explain to me why that card was lying on my table this morning, with a note!”. Tara sighed. 

”That card does not belong with me!” Tara said ”You shall have it!”. Jaden sighed. 

”This card is yours!” said Jaden and placed it in Tara's hand and the card lit a little up. ”It is calling to you!” Jaden said ”Don't blame the card for your loss!”. 

”Jaden I am sorry!” said Tara suddenly ”I lost the duel and your faith in me! I turned into a cat and almost forgot you!”. Jaden grinned. 

”I don't need a apology and I still believe in you!” Jaden said ”And everyone loses a duel, and you were a cute Tiger! Maybe we could call you that from now on!”. Tara turned totally red. She got out of Zane's arms and looked angry at Jaden. 

”If you do I am gonna kill you!” she screamed. Jaden grinned and began running. Tara rushed after him. She was her old self again. 

”Um do I disturb you in something!” said a voice suddenly. Tara turned around and saw Banner, Chazz, Alexis and some stranger standing in the hallway. Jaden also stopped up and walked back to Tara and the others. 

”Um no professor!” said Tara and looked at the stranger ”Who is that!”.

”This is a detective! Since 3 of the spirit gates is unlocked, we thought it would be better to call in the police!” said Banner. Tara looked suspicious at him. 

”You don't say!” said Tara. The stranger grinned a little awkward. He introduced himself as detective Zaloog. Tara didn't trust him. However Jaden and the rest of the key keepers left with him. Tara stayed with Zane.

Jaden's p.o.v.

”So where are your keys!” asked Zaloog the key keepers. They were in a empty classroom. The key keepers looked at each others. They all had their keys around the their necks. Zaloog sighed. 

”Children!” He said ”When the Shadow riders have found you, they also find the keys! So what about hiding them instead!”. Jaden and co looked at each other. 

”Well if you say so!” said Jaden and the group split up. 

In Chazz's room. 

Chazz was hiding his key under a sink, near the couch. 

”Nobody would ever find it here!” said Chazz. The detective nodded.

”Yeah! But Chazz be sure not to tell anyone!” Zaloog said. The other key keepers nodded. Suddenly they heard a sound. Everyone turned around and saw a man painting the fench. 

”Who is that?!” asked Zaloog curious. Jaden grinned. 

”Oh That's just Gorg!” He said ”He is the janitor!”. They walked towards the next place. 

In Jaden's room. 

”Hmm there!” Jaden said and placed his key in drawer. Zaloog and the others smiled. 

”Yes it would be difficult to find it in such a mess!” Zaloog said. Suddenly they heard a weird voice outside. Jaden rushed towards the door and found a slifer red student.

”Who is he?!” said Zaloog curious. Syrus and Chumley arrived at the field. 

”Oh Hi Sikay, your lost again!” Syrus asked. The boy grinned awkward. 

”Sikay is a new transfer!” said Chumley ”Your room is next door Sikay!”. The boy rushed away from there. They all walked towards the next room. 

Alexis's room. 

”Well here I put all my jewels!” said Alexis and placed her key inside her jewelry box. Zaloog grinned and nodded. 

”Nice work!” He said and nodded. Suddenly a strange woman walked inside the room. Zaloog looked confused at her. 

”Now who's this!” He asked. Alexis just smiled. 

”Oh its cool!” She said ”She is the school's nurse, nothing to worry about!”. The lady smiled and left the room. The key keepers left towards the last room. 

Banner's office.

”I bet your key would be safe in there Banner!” said Chumley. 

”Oh and why is that!” said Chazz sarcastic. ”Because its a safe!”. Banner placed his key inside his safe and closed it. Suddenly someone was walking by. 

”Now who is that!” asked Zaloog curious. 

”Oh thats just Cliff the security guard!” Banner said. ”He makes this place even more safe!”. Suddenly Banner yawned, and soon the others followed. 

”Oh Children!” said Zaloog ”You must all be tired! Lets all have a good night sleep!”. Jaden and co all nodded. It was pretty late already. They all went back to their place and a little bit after they all fall asleep. 

Tara's p.o.v.

Tara was lying on her bed and couldn't sleep. She had a awesome day with Zane, however she couldn't forget the detective. She was a little worried and didn't trust him at all. There were something weird about him. Tara sighed for the 100 time, that night, when suddenly she could hear her spirit call. 

”Mell, Mell!” said it and appeared beside her. It was jumping around and was pointing at the window. Tara looked at the window and saw a yellow spirit monster. It was ”Ojama Yellow”. It looked happy. 

”Um may I come in!” said the spirit. Tara nodded and the spirit passed through the window. Marshmellow was jumping around in joy. 

”Marshmellow, long time no see!” said Ojama Yellow and grinned. It was patting Marshmellow. Tara felt this situation really weird. 

”I thought that spirits couldn't move far away from their owner and cards!” said Tara concerned. Ojama Yellow just grinned. 

”Um who says that the boss is far away!” said Ojama Yellow. Tara lifted both eyebrows. Ojama Yellow grinned again.

”The boss is standing under your balcony! He has sent me, because he wanted to talk to you!” Ojama Yellow said. Tara looked a little shocked and walked out of her balcony. Chazz was really standing outside and he looked a little pissed. 

”Um Chazz what are you doing at the girls dorm!” asked Tara concerned. 

”Shh!” said Chazz in a low voice ”Do you want the whole dorm to know that I am here!”. Tara shrugged a little. 

”It depends!” she said ”What are you doing here!”. Chazz sighed.

”I... I need your help okay!” He said ”Enemies thinks alike! Meet me a the other side of the lake okay!”. Chazz began walking away. 

”Well see you Marshmellow!” said Ojama Yellow and followed Chazz. Tara changed pretty fast from pajamas to regular clothes, and rushed out of the dorm. She found Chazz waiting on the stairs, close to the lake. He looked up when she arrived.

”Well it took some time!” He said a little angry. 

”Well excuse me!” Tara said and grinned ”But it is not me, who is begging for my help!”. Chazz sneered a little. Tara just smiled. 

”Why do you need my help!” Tara asked. 

”I need to borrow your spirit!” He said ”Marshmellow! There is this detective..!”. And then Chazz began telling about detective Zaloog's idea about hiding the keys and that Chazz didn't trust him. Tara listened and sighed at the end. 

”So you want Marshmellow so you can spy on the keys?!” Tara asked. Chazz nodded.  ”Okay you can borrow him!” Tara said ”But only if you do a thing for me too!”. 

”Hff and whats that!” asked Chazz and snort. Tara smiled. 

”If someone's steals the keys or there is a case with that detective!” Tara replied ”Then I want to be there!”. Chazz looked at her and shrugged. 

”Okay fine!” He said and did a handshake with Tara ”It's a deal!”. Tara gave Chazz, Marshmellow, and he disappeared. Tara smiled. This could turn out to be interesting. 

Jaden's p.o.v.

Jaden and Syrus rushed into Chazz's room. Someone had stolen the spirit keys. In Jaden's room, someone has drilled a hole in his room and stolen his key. When they approached Chazz's room, they saw that someone had bursted the door down and stolen his key too. Chazz hasn't notice because he was wearing ear plugs. 

”Chazz, chazz!” screamed Jaden and Chazz noticed them and took his ear plugs out. 

”What is it slacker!” said Chazz angry ”Why are you even in my room!”.

”Your door has bin knocked down!” Jaden screamed ”And your key is gone too!”. 

”Darn it!” Chazz scream ”Hey Jaden lets tell the others! Oh and call your sister too!”. Jaden looked confused. 

”Why Tara too!” asked Jaden confused. Chazz sneered a little. 

”Just do it!” He scream. Jaden nodded and called Tara on his PDA. Syrus contacted the others and soon everyone was gathered in Chazz's room. Except Tara because she hasn't arrived yet. 

”So all your keys has been stolen too!” asked Chazz the others. They all nodded. 

”We will figure it out!” said Zaloog. He had just arrived and had gathered all the strangers from the other day. They others looked confused at him.

”Detective Zaloog!” said Banner ”What are you doing in here!”. Zaloog smiled. 

”I rounded some subject!” He replied ”To get to the bottom of this serious crime. However I have to ask all of you some questions first!”. Jaden nodded.

”Sure he is the detective after all!” Jaden said. Chazz shook her head. He was about to explain himself, when suddenly Zaloog got hit in the head and fell to the floor. 

”Boss!” screamed all the strangers ”Are you okay!”. Jaden and co looked surprised. 

”He is not a detective!” said a voice behind the group and Tara walked inside the room. ”He is a duel spirit and probably the one who stole all your keys!”. Zaloog got up and his feet and looked angry at her. 

”Do you have any proof!” He scream. Tara pointed at the four strangers. 

”Um yeah!” She said ”You all just revealed yourself, by calling that detective Boss!”. Jaden and co looked suspicious at them. 

”Yeah that is strange!” said Alexis. Zaloog just smiled awkwardly.

”Um thats just a code name!” He said. Chazz snort.

”Yeah for a boss leader!” He said ”I also have proof! All the duel spirit saw you take the keys! I hit a spirit every place where the keys were hiding and they saw you steal the keys”. Chazz pointed at the 4 strangers. They all looked shocked. 

”Hey we can't see these so called spirits!” said Zaloog. Chazz sneered. 

”I don't care if you can't see them!” Chazz said ”I know the truth and that enough!”.

”Yeah!” added Tara ”And that detective there is their boss! I knew there were something wrong with them!”. Zaloog and co all grinned and took their disguise off. 

”Smart children!” said Zaloog and grinned ”You are right! I am the boss of the group! We are called ”The dark scorpions!”. They all made a stupid formation. Jaden and co just watched clueless. 

”Um never heard of you!” Jaden said. The scorpions all did a anime fall down. 

”Well it doesn't matter who they are!” said Chazz ”But since they are the new Shadow riders, I will beat them in a duel!”. Jaden made a protest, since he also wanted to duel, however Tara touched his shoulders, and shook her head. 

”Let Chazz have a shut at them!” Tara said ”He did figure it out after all!”. Jaden sighed and sulked a little. 

”Fine!” he said. The scorpions all looked surprised. 

”That's it!” Zaloog said ”That's why the keys didn't work!”. He accepted Chazz's challenge and they all walked outside to duel.

Chazz: 4000Lp.

Zaloog: 4000Lp.

Zaloog started the duel. He summoned the monster ”Golem sentry” in def mode. Then he placed a card face down and ended his turn. Chazz's turn. He played the spell ”Fiend sanctuary” and got a fiend token. He sacrificed it so that he could summon ”Armed dragon lv 5”. He attacked Zaloog's monster. Chazz then placed two facedown's and leveled up his dragon, because of its eff. He now had ”Armed dragon lv 7” on the field. It was now Zaloog's turn. He used the spell ”pot of greed” and got two more cards. He then played ”Don Zaloog” who happens to be himself. 

”Wait!” said Jaden confused ”You are a card!”. Zaloog smiled and jumped on the field itself. Tara grinned a little. 

”Well of course he is!” said Tara ”Marshmellow told me he was a spirit!”. 

”Of course I am!” Zaloog said and grinned ”And it is not only me! With this card I can summon all the dark scorpions!”. He played the spell card ”Mustering of the dark scorpions”, and with that, he could summoned ”Chick the yellow”, ”cliff the trap remover”, ”Gorg the strong” and ”Meanae the thorn” to the field. They did a annoying scorpion formation. Zaloog activated a trap, and now all the scorpions can attack Chazz directly, and for every attack, he lose 400 points. Chazz felt all these attacks and fell down on one knee. The dark scorpions eff activated. First Chazz's dragon returned to the top of his deck. Then a card on chazz's field returns to his hand. Then two cards from the top of his deck go's to the grave, and then one card in his hand is destroyed. Finally a card with dark scorpions can be taken from the grave and added into Zaloog's hand. It was the trap card Zaloog just used.  

”Come on Chazz!” screamed the twins ”Is this how you win a duel!”.

”Shut it!” screamed Chazz back ”I know what I am doing!”. Chazz used his facedown card ”Level modulation”. Chazz could summon his ”Armed dragon lv 7” back from the grave, however Zaloog got two cards added to his hand. Zaloog ended his turn, by placing two facedown's. It was Chazz's turn. He activated his dragon's eff. He discarded a card and then Chazz could destroy every monster on the field. However Zaloog activated a trap and got all his monsters back to his hand, including himself. Chazz then attacked Zaloog directly. He lost 2800 life points. Chazz placed one card facedown and ended his turn. Zaloog summoned himself again and tried to summon his crew again, however Chazz activated his trap ”Ojama trio” and summoned three ”Ojama tokens” to their field. Now Zaloog couldn't summon his whole team, however he summoned ” Meanae the thorn” to the field. Zaloog then used a spell and by sacrificing Meanae's, he could destroy every monster on the field. Zaloog then attacked Chazz directly. His eff activates, however that card Chazz should discard was ”Ojama Magic” and when it is sent to the grave, Chazz can add the three ojama cards to his hand. It was Chazz's turn. He also used the card ”Pot of greed” and got two new cards. He then fusion summoned his ojamas into ”Ojama king” and played the spell ”Ojama muscles”. This card destroyed every ojama token on the field and dealt Zaloog 900 points of damage. However that was not the scary part. The ojama king gains 1000 att for every token who was destroyed. He has 3000 att now. Chazz attacked Zaloog and won the duel. The scorpions rushed to their leaders side, however because they lost the duel, they returned to original duel monster cards. Chazz picked them up. Banner gathered the keys again and they returned to their owner. Jaden smiled at his key and placed it around his neck again. 

”Tara here!” said Chazz suddenly. He was standing in front of Tara and was giving her a card. Jaden saw it was Marshmellow. Tara took it and grinned. Chazz was walking towards his room. Jaden looked confused at his sister. 

”Why are you grinning!” said Jaden confused. 

”Oh you see!” said Tara and grinned again ”I actually gave Ojama Yellow a good Idea when he visited me!”. Jaden looked still confused.

”Oh and what is that!” Jaden asked. Tara grinned and smiled evilly. 

”Um I told Ojama Yellow that the spirit should hold a party!” Tara said ”I couldn't help myself! I had to tease Chazz a little. I hope his earplugs works!”. Jaden grinned.

”Oh Tara, You and Chazz are never gonna be good friends like this!” He said. 

”I like him as a friendenemy more!” Tara said and grinned ”I love to prank him!”. Jaden grinned. Chazz was going to be angry on her in a long time.
