Sitting at a table, Nathaniel slid his new deck into his Duel Disk and marveled at the new weight of his deck. Admittedly, it was still the same weight as the 40-card decks he has always been using, but it certainly felt heavier. He had taken the lessons from his last duel to heart, and changed his deck to hold more power than ever before. Still, a small part of him worried about whether he could handle that much power, since he hasn't had such a great track record with it in the past. Yet most of him felt excited about these new changes. 

His thoughts were cut short however, when a random student came in and yelled at the students at the table to leave. They scattered like birds, and Nathaniel left with them. Once he was quite a distance away, he closely observed the new arrival. The student looked pretty old, but more importantly, he was wearing a uniform that Nathaniel had never seen before. Judging by its dark colors, Nathaniel could only guess that the student was from the Dark Dorm he had read about in the student handbook. 

These guys were definitely bad news, and as Nathaniel prepared to leave him well enough alone, another student, looking to be a Light Dorm, actually went up and talked to him. This did not seem like it would end well, and not wishing to be around when disaster strikes, Nathaniel turned and mixed himself in another group of Earth Dormers.
