This is the first of many (or few) nightmare/dream fics that I'm going to write for Yuki. Since some of these DO occur AFTER the end of Champion they may contain mild spoilers for those who have been reading Champion, I'll put whatever that might be in the top with the disclaimer before the start of every chapter. This one, the only thing that is a 'spoiler' is that Conrad and Yuki are finally together ;) DUH, Champion IS an OCxConrad fic after all ;P. Okay, here come disclaimers.

KKM doesn't belong to me. Miyuki, SK (Schwiergkeiten [gonna refer to AS SK from now on]), and some plot line twists DO.

Flamers: NO FLAMING WILL BE PERMITTED! IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE FACT THAT I HAVE AN IMAGINATION THEN I WILL FLIP *&^% RIGHT BACK AT YOU -_-

I guess I've also got to mention that my characters are PURPOSEFUL MARY SUES! I DON'T GIVE A (*^# OKAY? I have fun writing them, I mainly just have the storyline edited with my character in it. Whoopty *$&*# Do. GET OVER IT!

Run. That was all that was on our minds as we sprinted through the castle. Run. From what? Well… I'd rather not explain, but I will anyways.

Three days ago is when it started. Josak had returned from some spying mission Gwendal had sent him on with this random little girl in tow. This was very abnormal, even for the red-headed spy, bringing a person back to the castle I mean. She was one of the cutest little girls I'd ever seen though, pretty as someone her age can be with long blonde hair. She could be seen constantly wearing the only thing she'd brought with her; a long red dress of silk that looked like the design was for someone older. Shy, at first, but she quickly made friends with our little princess. Greta loved the little girl who, despite all coaxing, wouldn't say a word. Since we couldn't get her to tell us her name, we all just started calling her Sara. She didn't seem to mind.

Things were going fine until this morning. I was going through my normal morning routine with SK, not expecting to be disturbed. When I do my little morning sword dance I usually enter a trance-like state because I concentrate so hard on what I'm doing. I was transitioning from stance to stance with easy, fluid movements, that with Champion's help (and some memories that we looked into together) I'd mastered with relative ease. I stepped to the side, swinging SK in a sharp arc above my head. Totally unprepared I was to find Conrad standing right behind me. It took all of the skill I'd accumulated after first coming to this world and all my will power to direct SK elsewhere to avoid decapitating him. I glared slightly at the man as he whistled, sounding impressed.

"That took some skill Miss Yuki, to avoid hitting me the way that you would've. Considering you didn't notice me until the last second." He chuckled slightly. I snorted lightly under my breath as I rolled my eyes. I laid SK on my bed and turned to face Conrad.

"It's just Yuki, Conrad." I paused as he shrugged, this had become as much of a game to us as the whole 'your majesty/Yuuri' thing had become a game for Conrad and Yuuri. "You didn't come here just to test me on my discipline with my sword." It wasn't a question. He raised an eyebrow at me questioningly as I slipped my hand into his and looked him straight in the eye. "What is wrong Conrad?" I asked, "It's obvious to me something is seriously bugging you." Pinching the bridge of his nose, then running his hand through his hair Conrad sight. Giving my hand a light squeeze before letting it go, he walked over to my (oversized in my opinion, I'm still not used to this thing) bed. He sat, placing his elbows on his knees and clasping his hands in front of him.

I joined him on the bed, now slightly worried about this abnormal behavior. He hadn't acted this out-of-character since our big fight with Shinou-heika.

"Conrad?" I urged quietly, placing a hand on his shoulder. He sight again.

This little girl, Sara, what do you feel from her?" He asked suddenly. I gave him a confused look. "I mean what sort of feeling do you get from her? Good, bad, evil, sweetness, stuff like that." He smiled wryly, "I believe it was referred to as a 'vibe' in America?" I giggled slightly, "What?" he asked, giving me a sideways glance as I managed to compose myself.

"I'm sorry, it just sounds weird to hear you say something like that. Yes, it would be referred to as 'vibe'." I did the little air quotes gesture as I said the word. "But, now that you mention it, I haven't been to close to her to notice anything. Why?" He'd peaked my interest now.

"Well, I don't get a good feeling from her. I don't trust her." I frowned, he shook his head, "I'm not sure why, but I think she should leave. Soon."

"Why didn't you go to Gwendal with this? Or Gunter?" I inquired, "Why me?" Conrad scoffed.

"you think they'd listen to it? Or believe it?" he scowled as he dropped his hands to his lap and glared over at me, "I'm the best swordsman in all of Shin Makoku and I'm mistrustful, even slightly afraid, of an innocent looking little girl."

"I guess that'd be kinda hard to believe." I muttered after a few minutes of awkward silence. "Especially for your oldest brother and teacher." He gave me a look that said 'ya think?' I giggled and he rolled his eyes and smiled. Finally! I can't stand to see him without his usual grin on his face anymore than I can stand to see Yuuri unhappy. "It's okay." I said, smiling softly, "I'll always be here to listen when you've got an unbelievable story to tell." His smile widened and softened as he reached up with one hand, placing it on my cheek. I leaned into the touch as he leaned closer to me.

"Thank you." He whispered, inches from my face. I closed my eyes ready for what was coming when there was a loud knock at my door. My eyes snapped open as Conrad dropped his hand. I rolled my eyes and growled as the door opened almost immediately after. It's not like Conrad and I had had many chances for 'alone time'. We were both usually very busy.

"What?" I spat as I whipped my head around to face the door, standing as I did so. My next growling comment caught in my throat as I felt a weight hit my midsection and cling there. I looked down to find Greta wrapped around my waist. My eyebrows shot up. I lightly pushed her away and knelt down to be eye level with her. The little princess' dark brown eyes were full of tears.

"Greta!" Conrad came over to us, putting a hand on my shoulder and the other on Greta's head as he knelt next to me. "What's the matter?" It took a few minutes for the human child to compose herself before she rapidly related her story.

"Sara and I were playing in the courtyard." She started, "We were picking flowers and arranging them and stuff when she suddenly collapsed." She looked at me with fresh tears in her eyes. "I can't find Gisela anywhere! I knew you were the next best healer in the castle, so I came here as fast as I could!" She tugged on my arm, "Come on, please! Help Sara, Yuki!" I looked to Conrad, who had concerned plastered on his face, concern for Greta or the little girl he didn't trust, I'm not sure. I closed my eyes and then looked into Greta's pleading ones.

"Alright sweetie. Lead the way."

A/N: BTW this fic will consist of three parts, at most! (I hope)
