A/N: Alright since my summary isn't all that great I shall explain in the A/N. In this story it is in the past before Duzell and Phelios fought. Ishtar decides to go into the past without Darres and she ends up right near Duzell. She finds out what he was like in his original life, and she also changes the past. Oh and in this story Ishtar isn't married to Darres. She goes with someone else in this story. Oh and this story is going to have a couple of parts afterwards. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Time Travel

Ishtar sighed as she listened to more lectures from Darres, her body guard. She had snuck out yet again and he was giving her his usual lecture.

"Listen Darres I don't feel like listening to your little lecture today. Maybe some other time." Ishtar stood and walked out of the room. Duzell, her pet Kyawl had run off when Sir Keld had arranged a marrige between her and Darres. But that didn't last very long. 'Duzie can't you come back? I miss you.' Ishtar walked into her room and closed the door. Sir Keld had bought her a cat when Duzell had ran off. To make matters worse for her, she had named the cat Phelios, just to see if when she called out to the cat if Duzell would return to her. He never had though. Thats when someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" She called.

"Its me, Falan."

"Oh! Come on in Falan!" Her cousin Falan walked in. Not long ago, Ishtar had told Falan who her Kyawl and "doctor" really was.

"So Ish has Duzell returned yet?" Falan looked at Ishtar using the nickname she had given her.

"No. I get the feeling that he won't ever return." Silent tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Its alright Ishtar. Why don't you go and ask Yuujin for help?" Ishtar looked at her. (A/N: Alright I haven't read the 15th volume yet, so in this story Yuujin is alive if he died alright. I already know that Duzell and Phelios were reincarnated as hers and Darres' sons, but I'm changing that.)

"Falan, Its partially Yuujin's fault that Duzie left."

"How?"

"Easy. He told Duzie that Darres and I were getting married. Then Duzie ran off." Ishtar said it in her normal way.

"Oh Ishtar, I don't know how to consol you anymore." Falan dropped her head. Ishtar then jumped off the bed.

"Come on Falan! Lets go see Yuujin!"

"What? Why?"

"I'm going to find a way to see Duzell again!"

"How?! He's probably miles away by now!"

"Not THAT Duzell. The original Duzell!" Ishtar ran out into the hall, Falan right behind her.

"Ishtar! Do you know how dangerous that can be!?"

"Its alright Falan. Duzie maybe a vampire king then, but he's still my little Duzie-woozie!" They continued to run down the hall until the entered Yuujin's room.

"Ah Princess Ishtar and Princess Falan! How are you two lovely ladies today?" He did a little bow.

"Yuujin! How can I go into the past?" Ishtar said getting right to the point.

"Not beating around the bush I see Princess Ishtar."

"Just answer me Yuujin!"

"You miss him so much that your willing to go and meet the vampire king Duzell, who is later reincarnated as your Kyawl?"

"Yes Yuujin! Is there a way?"

"Yes there is a way Ishtar. But first I need you to pour some of your blood into this vile here." He held up a vile.

"What is it for?" Ishtar looked at him.

"There is only one way for you to see him and talk with him in the past. You are also going to perhaps become a vampire yourself."

"No Ishtar don't do it!" Falan cried.

"I'm sorry Falan, but he didn't exactly say that I HAVE to become a vampire. There won't be a problem." Yuujin shook his head.

"Princess Ishtar, your talking about the creatures of the night. They love blood remember? Whose to say King Duzell won't want to drain you of your blood?" Ishtar tried to picture the Duzell she knows draining her clean of her blood. She couldn't picture it.

"Yuujin Duzie wouldn't do that to me." She smiled.

"Princess Ishtar, Duzell changed when he met you! He was totally different in his previous life! He didn't care for anyone, trust me. That is most likely why St. Phelios went after Duzell in the first place. Or it was because Duzell threatened to attack Pheliosta and destroy it completely. Duzell is no longer the vampire king he was back then. Trust me Ishtar." Ishtar started to rethink this idea, but then she remembered the kind face that Duzell had looked at her once before with.

"Yuujin..."

"Yes My lady?"

"How does the spell go?" She cut her wrist and poured some of her blood into the vial. He recited the spell to Ishtar and she payed very close attention for once. Falan ran up to Ishtar.

"Ishtar don't go alone!"

"Falan I'll be alright." Ishtar gave her a warm smile to reassure her.

"Ishtar I'd feel better if you took along Darres or Yuujin."

"Falan the only person I'd bring with me would be Duzie. And he's not here. He's the reason why I'm doing this. Alright here I go!" She recited the spell and when she was done Falan yelled "NO!" And then Ishtar disappeared.

"Yuujin where did she go?!" Falan looked at him.

"The past. She is in the time of St. Phelios and the vampire king Duzell. Before the battle against St. Phelios and King Duzell." Falan paled and right at that moment Darres came running in.

"Where's Ishtar?!"

"Darres, please take Princess Falan to her room? She's looking awfully pale. Don't you agree? Ishtar is doing fine."

"But Yuujin where is she? Is she alright?"

"Ishtar is doing fine. I don't think you should search for her until a couple of weeks." Yuujin smiled and left the room thinking 'Thats of course if Ishtar ever wants to come back from the past. Heh, I wouldn't blame her. She gets to meet Duzell, the original one, before he changed.'

In the Past

Ishtar groaned as she sat up and then her eyes went wide. She was in a castle, on her knees in front of a throne. That's when a voice she reconigzed reached her ears.

"What do you want? If you want money or other stuff take your problems elsewhere." There sitting on the throne in front of her was the vampire king himself: Duzell. 'I'm actually here in the past! Wait did Duzie just say that to me?!' Thats when someone in front of her, who was vampire, nodded his head and quickly left the throne room. 'Wow Duzie your really a jerk back then. I would have at least heard him out. But thats just me.' Thats when Duzell motioned for her to come forward.

"You don't look like someone whose a peasant...Are you a Princess or something?" She looked into his eyes and was surprised to see coldness in them. Remembering not to call him "Duzie" and her manners, she spoke.

"Yes in fact King Duzell, I am a Princess. My name is Princess Ishtar. I am..." He cut her off before she could finish.

"I can tell what you are. You are a vampire." Ishtar slowly nodded her head. "Alright then go stand over there." He motioned to some place in the darkness over somewhere to his right. 'Wait did he just call me a vampire?! Phew at least I am a vampire and I don't have Phelios's blood running in my veins. That would be hard to explain!' She thought as she walked to the indicated spot.

To Be Continued...

Alright that was chapter 1 and I hope I got the characters' personalities right. If I did a horrible job with Darres, Yuujin, and Duzell please let me know what I've done wrong. Please REVIEW! I accept all reviews besides flames. Anonomous people can review too.
