Prologue

Finding Out

The two duellists sat outside Miss Fontaine's nursing office, impatiently waiting for the brunette's test results to come back. Jaden Yuki, Duel Academy's top duellist, twisted his fingers tightly around each other. There was a stabbing pain in his gut and it was pretty painful, but he was trying to put that pain aside, at least for a while. Any minute now the nurse would come and tell he and his boyfriend what was wrong with him. Then they'd know what to do about it. Jaden cast a sorrowful glance at his bluenette boyfriend and lover, Jesse Andersen, who was staring out the window, his back to the brunette. Jaden wondered if his boyfriend was worried about him, as much as he was worried about himself.

For the past three months, Jaden had been experiencing sickness, usually in the morning, and stabbing pains in his stomach. At first the pain hadn't been very much, just a light queasiness, but now the pain had grown more intense. As the months had passed, the pain had grown, and now the pain in his stomach was vicious. Whatever it was, he wanted rid of it. Whatever disease he'd somehow picked up, he wanted whatever treatment would get rid of it. No matter what he had to go through, because this pain was becoming worse and worse each day.

"Do you think there's something wrong with me?" the brunette whispered.

There was no answer from his boyfriend for several minutes, but then Jesse turned around and offered a sad smile to the brunette.

"I don't know, Jay. You've been sick three months, though, so something's not right in you" he said sadly, but then he sat down next to his lover and took both his hands in his own. "I'll stay with you, Jaden. You know I love you, right?"

"Yeah, I know" Jaden whispered, half happily and half sadly.

"Then trust me. I won't leave you, no matter what. Nothing could be wrong enough with you that it would make me love you less. You know that?"

"Jesse …"

"I love you, Jay. I always did, I always will." Jesse kissed his lover softly for a moment and then smiled again. "Even if there is something really wrong with you, I'll stay with you and I won't stop loving you for even one second, you got that?"

Jaden hugged his lover tightly in response, showing that he trusted and believed the bluenette. Jesse wrapped his arms tightly around the slightly smaller boy, holding him close, as he so often did now.

Shortly after Jaden had saved him from Yubel and Jaden had returned to Duel Academy, Jesse had made plans to return to North Academy. He had confessed his true feelings for the brunette the night before he was due to leave and had been stunned to hear that Jaden returned those feelings and was deeply hurt that Jesse was going to leave. Of course, the bluenette had immediately cancelled his plans to return to his old school and decided to stay with his new boyfriend. It was five months later, and three months ago, his beloved brunette had began feeling strange and slightly sick, but it was getting worse, and he'd forced Jaden to take some tests with Miss Fontaine, determined to find out what was wrong with his lover.

Both boys looked up as the school nurse walked into the room.

"Well, Miss Fontaine?" Jaden asked nervously.

"Jaden … Jesse … I have something important to tell you" the nurse said, equally nervously. "I don't know how this happened, but I've run the test several times and there is no mistake. I'm … I don't know quite how to tell you this …"

"Just tell us" Jesse said darkly.

He didn't want any messing about, this was Jaden's life they were talking about!

Miss Fontaine took a deep breath before giving them the news.

"Jaden, you are three months pregnant."

Silence.

Silence.

More silence.

"WHAT?!" the boys yelled together.

"I mean it. The tests are all accurate, and they're all pointing to only one thing. I'd like to do an ultrasound to confirm this, but that can wait a few days."

"How … but I'm a boy … how can I be pregnant?!" Jaden stammered, the pain in his stomach increasing. "Boys don't get pregnant, it's impossible! There's no way … no way that I could be … I can't … it's not …"

With a sudden gasp, the brunette vomited on the carpet and then passed out.

Jesse caught his lover as Jaden fell towards the vomit covered carpet, and held the unconscious brunette to his chest, his eyes wide with the shock.

"How can he be carrying a child? He's not a girl. There's no way he could."

"Jesse, I've heard rumours, you have to confirm them. Is Jaden truly fused with the spirit of Yubel?" Miss Fontaine asked quietly.

"Yeah, that's true."

"And Yubel is a female duel spirit?"

"Partly female, partly male" Jesse corrected.

Jaden had filled him in on the details, and both boys had forgiven Yubel for what she had done.

"Then it is possible that Yubel has given Jaden the ability to produce children" Miss Fontaine told the bluenette. "He is able to be impregnated, but I must warn you Jesse … this isn't good."

"Why?" Jesse asked quietly, afraid of what he might hear.

"I doubt Jaden can survive this."

Jesse froze.
