I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh if I did would I be writing a FANfiction?
Oh YEA! I wanna thank my friend Torie for being my beta reader no matter how picky she is...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jou trekked across the vastness of the mountaintops searching for his dragon, his one and only faithful Red-eyes, currently his only friend. Sure he had other friends; the keyword there was had. He could never really keep a friend because they always left him when they realized that he couldn't help them in the goal they were trying to achieve. All of the goals were greedy and evil. He just wasn't either of those, neither was Red-eyes. Jou like to call him Ruby. Jou was the only one of his kind that he knew of. The only dragon summoner that still existed... There were once many summoners, but people grew fearful of their amazing power to summon these wonderful and majestic creatures. All because of a few evil ones that only summoned their dragons to terrorize and make themselves malevolent in peoples eyes.
He wasn't like that. He only summoned his dragon to help and nurture people, to be his friend, to help him stay alive. If it weren't for Ruby, he would probably be dead right now. Dead from people who thought he wasn't good enough to be alive, from his own loneliness, or from his father.
He hadn't really known he was a summoner until a couple of years ago... His father was trying to rape him and then kill him, but it never got that far. Ruby had all of a sudden appeared in the dark with its bright red eyes glowing ready to attack and defend.
~*~*~*~*~*Flashback*~*~*~*~*~
"No dad! Please no!" Jou's cries fell on deaf ears. His father slowly advanced on him. Rope in his left hand, and a long dagger in the other. Jou knew all too well what his father planned to do. He had threatened to do it before but had never actually gone though with it. Jou silently wondered what he had done to deserve this, or maybe his father was just too drunk to realize what he was doing. All the same he wanted out out of this house and away form his father, and he wanted out now. He knew his father was crazy enough to do it. No matter how much he begged and pleaded, he probably wouldn't be able to get out. His father may have been drunk, but he wasn't that drunk. He would do what he had planned to do and kill him, without so much as a second thought. His father slid the rope around Jou's arms while he wasn't paying attention. Jou's mind screamed for anyone, prayed for anyone, anything to magically come and save him...
Someone Up There must have really loved him because his prayers were answered. At that exact moment his father screamed and backed away. Jou resisted the urge to scream as well, and looked up. He saw red eyes. He began to scream, but the scream died in his throat as an angelic voice spoke. "Do not be afraid of him. He is yours, your eternal companion. You are a dragon summoner. Surrounded and made by legends. No one will dare oppose you while his existence is known." Jou's mouth was hanging open. He was a dragon summoner? How? Why? Finally it sunk in completely... "I'M A WHAT!?!?!" he screamed.
"Calm down." Said a voice in his head. "You're giving me a headache."
"Huh? Whose there?"
"Smart one. It's me, the dragon behind you."
"Ooooohhhh. I knew that..."

So that's how Ruby came to me. And trust me, I hope to God I am the only dragon summoner, in this world...Ruby told me that to become a dragon summoner you have to have a dragon pity you enough to want to save you and be your friend and only companion. That means you mostly have to, A. have a bad home life where someone tries or does injure you. B. Have no friends whatsoever so you think that you have the worst life ever and try to kill yourself. C. Have someone else try to kill you. D. Something no one has ever imagined its so much worse, or last but hell it ain't the least E. All of the above.
I personally was an E. Which is why I got my dragon so young. I was only 13, I believe...yes that would make me about 15. Most would become a summoner around the age of 18. Unless, like me, it's so bad that if the dragons don't go to them, now they most likely will not make it to 18.
By this time I had finally found Ruby. We started off towards the next town where we would be praised like a god, the only dragon summoner known to the world at this time. Few people would bug me tough, knowing word travels faster than I do. The people consider me holy, and they think that I cannot be touched and neither can my dragon.
As we entered the next town, Ruby disappeared into whatever world she goes into, and I walked along to see if anyone recognized me.
I walked into an inn to get a room to stay in. The girl standing at the desk in the corner didn't look too happy to be there for some reason. Her golden-brown eyes seemed dull and bored, but that quickly changed when she saw me. Her eyes even turned an energetic bright blue, which I found generally odd. Her voice rang out across the room to my ears, "May I help you?" she asked with a generally happy tone.
"Are there any rooms available?" I asked politely.
"Lemme check." She disappeared behind a curtain for a moment. She came back and smiled. "We have one room left." She replied. Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a streak of brown and blue.
