DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ONE PIECE OR KYOU KARA MAOU!

It's already a year or so since I finished Kyou Kara Maou, but not so long ago I read a really great crossover between Kyou Kara Maou and Harry Potter (It's called 'A Demon's Magic' and it's written by RikuRoyalty) and it inspired me to write something about Kyou Kara Maou as well, so enjoy reading the prologue (:

Present time

Yuri's POV

I sat in my office and looked at the man opposite to me.

"How can we help you?" Conrad was the first one to voice the question which was on everyone's mind.

I looked at the man warily. He had shoulder-length, white hair and a beard with the same color. He had a scar vertically over his right eye and wore round glasses.

"Who are you anyways?!" interrupted Wolfram a bit too aggressively, in my opinion.

"No need to get angry, my boy. My name's Silvers Rayleigh and I wanted to thank you, but I also wanted to warn you."

My eyes widened slightly as I heard his name. He was the first mate of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger. Why did he want to thank me? Maybe because…

"You probably know why I wanted to thank you, but I should explain why I wanted to warn you. You angered the Navy as you should know. They see you as their enemy now, they think of you as a threat."

His words were directed at me and I knew too good what he was talking about, but they didn't like us to begin with, so what did I have to lose by doing what I thought was right?

"As if we don't know that they think of us as enemies. They hated us from the very start. They hated us since we killed their Fleet Admiral during the big war between Mazoku and humans!"

"Wolfram, be quiet!"

Gwendal looked at his younger brother with a stern expression on his face.

"I'm sorry, brother."

I sighed.

"It's okay, Gwendal. Wolfram's right. They hated us the whole time."

"It seems you don't take this seriously." Rayleigh looked at me.

"You may be right, you were always seen as a threat by the Navy and the World Government, but now they have a reason to attack you! They have a reason to start a war against you. You may have a bit of time, because they're not ready so short after the war against Whitebeard, but they will come for sure."

"I don't want to be rude, but why are you telling us all of this? Only because we saved the son of your former captain? I doubt it." Conrad threw in.

"You're right, there's more to it, but right now I can't tell you my reasons."

He slowly stood up.

"I think I should leave now, I need to train a friend of mine and I only have two years time. See you." He turned around and left.

"What now?" I sighed as I asked

"First of all we should summon a meeting of the Ten Aristocrats." suggested Gwendal.

"The others should know about this."

I looked at him and nodded.

"You're right, you should contact them immediately."

"What do you mean by 'you'? Normally this would be your job, your Majesty." said Gwendal.

"Yeah I know, but I have to talk to Murata about this. Conrad, could you please prepare Ao? I need to visit the shrine of Shinou."

Conrad nodded and smiled at me

"At once, your Majesty."

He was about to leave as I stopped him. My eye twitched lightly.

"Conrad, how many times did I tell you already? You don't need to call me by that title. You gave me my name so call me by it, please!"

He nodded.

"As you wish, Yuri." he said, before he left.

I sighed once more, before I also left. I wanted to go to my room and fetch a jacket, but I was stopped by Greta.

She looked at my with puppy eyes.

"Yuri…"

They way she said my name meant that she definitely wanted something from me. I didn't have time, but how should I say no, if my cute little daughter asked me to do something?

"What's the matter, Greta?" I asked as I smiled at her.

"I overheard your conversation with this Rayleigh-guy. He was the first mate of the Pirate King, wasn't he?"

I nodded and waited for her to continue.

"So what did Conrad mean when he said you saved the son of Rayleigh's former captain?

Anissina said there was an article in the newspaper about you, but she wouldn't let me read it."

"It's a long story, Greta. Maybe I tell you some other time, okay?"

She looked at me again with big eyes.

"Please, Yuri, please tell me about it!" she whined.

I sighed. I knew it, I couldn't say no to her.

"Fine, I'll tell you, but not here in the corridor. Let's go somewhere more comfortable."

She smiled one of the smiles I loved so much about my daughter as she nodded. I also smiled as I went into our room. I sat on the bed and signalized her to sit beside me. Once she sat she nestled to me and I ran my hand over her hair.

"Where should I start?

You know that Wolfram, Conrad and I went on a tour a few weeks ago, don't you?"

She nodded.

"Well even in disguise some humans recognized me. You know I really don't have anything against humans, I am half-human myself, but they had something against us. They were the kind of human who still thought that Mazoku are evil creatures who only mean harm."

I sighed as I remembered everything.

"They called the Navy and we didn't have enough time to escape. Wolfram was sea sick and even if he wasn't we wouldn't have had a chance of winning against so many soldiers, so I made a deal with them. I said that I would go with them if they let the other two get away. They knew who I am, they knew that I am the Maou, so they agreed."

At this point Greta interrupted me. Her voice was shaking.

"Of course they would agree! If they had you they could always threaten to kill you, if the others didn't do as they wanted!"

"Don't worry, nothing happened. I am alright as you can see."

"You're still an idiot."

"I know, but if I didn't go with them Conrad and Wolfram would have had to fight and it would have been a pointless fight.

However; they took me to their superiors and they decided that it would be best to sent me to Impel Down and there I met someone who later became a good friend of mine."

"Really? Who?"

"A person you probably know. He was also mentioned in our conversation earlier. He is an infamous pirate and also the son of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger."

"Just tell me his name already! You're so mean, Yuri!" she whined, but she also smiled lightly.

I laughed. I could see that she couldn't wait to hear his name.

"As you wish, my little princess.

The person I met there was none other than the commander of Whitebeard's second division, also known as FireFist.

This is the story of how I met Portgas D. Ace."

As you see at the ending I am a big fan of "How I Met Your Mother" :'D

I hope you liked the first chapter (prologue).

Please tell me what you think and if I should continue this story or not (:
