"Inner Demon when speaking to Jaden through thoughts""Talking normal" 'Thinking'POV changeFlashback warning (Author's note)Time Skip

Recap:

Night had fallen, but Jaden, Jesse, and Syrus were wide awake, joking around and doing random things until Syrus got tired and went to bed about an hour after the sun had fallen. The two taller teens waited until Syrus started to snore before they talked in hushed tones. "Have you thought of anything, yet?" Jesse asked the brunet.

"I thought of exorcism, but Yuke said that won't work," Jaden replied before he lowered his head, covering half his face with the shadow of his bangs. "I thought of other things, but they seem a little ridiculous."

"Most of the things you think of are a little ridiculous," Jesse joked. "How do you know is he just isn't a figment of your imagination?"

"Do you really think I am?" a voice deeper then Jaden's asked.

Now:

Jesse was shocked when he heard another voice coming from Jaden's mouth. So much that he fell back a little before Jaden raised his head, only his face wasn't the same. His eyes were golden that had a deep blood red surrounding his pupil before the red blended into the gold. Dark blue, close to black, lines reached down to his cheek from his eyes. Fangs poked out of his mouth when he gave Jesse a smirk as he flexed his now clawed fingers. "No need to be afraid of me, Jesse," the deep voice from Jaden's mouth stated. "I will not harm you."

"You're Yuke, aren't you?" Jesse asked.

"Yes," Yuke replied. "I am the demon resting in Jaden's mind. I couldn't stand all the abuse he suffered when he was younger so I made myself known to him when he was five years of age. But his parents found out about me and sent him to a spiritualist or something like that. My home in Jaden's mind was flooded, so Jaden could never hear me whenever he needed advice, or see me when he slept. The water is leaving now, but Jaden doesn't remember me. He tells me that he has real friends, and doesn't need an imaginary one. He doesn't seem to realize that I am not just a part of his imagination. I am a part of him, a part of his mind that he had forgotten about after so many years."

"You seem pretty open," Jesse pointed out, giving the demon that possessed his friend a small glare.

Yuke chuckled deeply before replying, "That is because I can trust you. You and Jaden are so alike, yet so different. But his other so called friends," he snarled out 'friends' as he sent a glance towards the slumbering Syrus, "I do not trust. They might abandon him whenever they find someone else they can be around. They will hurt him, and I know they will, except for you." Jesse looked at Yuke confused. "I am a demon, Jesse. I can sense the things you feel towards Jaden. I can see the way you look at him, the way you are always around him. I am no fool. Jaden is oblivious, but I will do you the favor of not telling him for you. You tell him yourself." Yuke bent forward a little, hovering over Jesse's lower half as the blunet leaned back a bit, supporting himself on his hands behind him. "In truth, I have no objections. And he feels the same, though he is unsure of what he feels."

He closed his eyes before he leaned away from Jesse, sitting up straight. "Jaden want me to stop controlling him body now, so we will speak another time, Jesse Anderson," Yuke said before the demonic features disappeared from Jaden's face as the brunet gave out a small gasp.

Jaden slouched over, supporting his weight on his hands, breathing heavily with wide eyes. "What the hell did he do?" he asked out loud. Jesse, seeing that it was the real Jaden in front of him, leaned closer to Jaden. He reached out and pulled Jaden to his body, embracing him tightly. Jaden was still shaking slightly, but his breathing was evening out and he buried his face into Jesse's chest. They stayed like that for a little while until Jaden was calmed down enough to settle his breathing and relaxed into Jesse's embrace. "Jesse?" Jaden said, making Jesse looked down at the brunet, who wasn't even looking at him. "What did Yuke do?"

"Proved that he isn't a figment of your imagination," Jesse replied, not releasing the hold he had on the smaller teen in his arms. The younger dueler sighed before he sat up a little, slipping out of Jesse's arms. Jesse stood before helping Jaden to his feet. The brunet gave a small smile before he climbed into his bed, slipping under the thick blanket on top of his mattress. Jesse gave a small smile as well before he climbed up onto the top bunk. "Night, Jay," Jesse called out.

"Night, Jesse," Jaden replied before he closed his eyes and went into a deep sleep. His eyes opened to see a large lake before him. a lot of water had disappeared since he was last in this part of his mind. Yuke sat on a boulder on the shore, looking like he was inspecting his claws. He raised his head and smirked when he saw Jaden there, but his smirk fell when he saw the angered look in Jaden's eyes. "What did you do?!" Jaden snapped at his inner demon.

"I just had a little talk with Jesse," Yuke replied innocently. "That's all. Don't worry, I didn't do anything else but speak to him."

"How did you do it?"

"Do what? I just simply possessed you. It's an easy thing I can do when your guard is down. Relax, I didn't do anything stupid. All I did was tell Jesse a little something about myself. He should understand things a little better now."

"How so?"

"I told him what I am and how long I've been here. That's all."

"And what are you?" Jaden asked with a suspicious tone.

With a slight chuckled, Yuke looked at Jaden in the eye. "I'm a demon that has been inside of your mind since you have been born." He bent his head down a little, looking at the water. "It happens sometimes. We demons try to find a body to take over, but when I entered yours, (no 1 better turn that perverted!) things were a little different. You still had a human soul, and my demonic power couldn't remove it. You were born with a demon locked inside of you. We demons are not seen by normal humans, but only by humans that have demon souls inside of their own body. Let's take psychics for example. They have very weak human souls and very powerful demonic soul inside of them. You'd be surprised what demons can do."

"So you tried to kill me before I was born? I thought you said you were going to protect me!"

"Jaden, my soul entered your unborn body right before you were born. The best time for a demon to take over a human body without the human soul rejecting the demon is when the human is still in the womb of the mother, during the ninth month. Mostly because then the body is fully developed, so we don't have to worry about being found out for a few years."

"Why only a few years?"

"Because demons don't develop their marking until they're five or six. Anyway, you were born right after my soul entered your body. Guess my timing was off. But you were born with me, making things different. I am your inner demon. I am a part of you. Something you can not get rid of. When you were born, I sensed something about you. You would have died as soon as you were born if I didn't enter your body. Now I make it my duty to make sure no harm comes to you."

"Why? Because you only protect me to protect yourself?" Jaden said, glaring at Yuke hard.

"Sort of," Yuke replied with a small shrug. "If you die, I don't die. My soul either takes control over your dead body or it leaves."

"Either or, it's a good thing for you if I die. So why are you protecting me?"

"Jaden, I am not like most demons. Me and my friends will not drive our host to the brink of either suicide or insanity. Very few demons are like us. I help you, and I will continue to do so. Unlike most demons, my friends and I rather not go to hell. Though we belong there, but my friends and I rather not go there. Besides, I've grown a little attached to you over the years I was able to speak to you."

"So you only want a good afterlife? That's the only reason why you try to help me? I still think you're being selfish."

"What part of 'I've grown attached to you' don't you get? Jaden, I want to protect you because I've grown attached to you. I don't need to protect you. I could just let you die and take over your body when you are dead, but I don't! I have helped you countless times when you were younger. You were in a life-or-death kind of situation when you were just eight. Someone held a gun to your head, threatening your life to get your parents to do as the gun holder said. That was when I first took control over you. I could have just sat back and let him shoot you in the head, but I chose to help. That was when your parents found out about me. They were not grateful. They got rid of me."

Jaden was silent, digesting this new piece of information that Yuke had just told him. "Jaden," Yuke called out before Jaden raised his head, seeing Yuke staring at him in the eyes once again. "You know I will not do anything to you unless I know it is for the best. Everything I have done for you when you were younger was for the best. And I will continue doing what is for the best now if you will let me. Listen to what I say, and allow me to take over whenever I feel like I should. I won't take control for unnecessary reasons. You know that, deep down. And just as far down, you know you can trust me."

"I don't know what to think about you," Jaden stated. "But I do know that all I want is for you to leave me alone!"

Jaden turned and ran off, leaving a hurt Yuke behind. All the demon did was lower his head, turning it slightly so he could look at the water. "Eventually, Jaden, you will get used to me being within you once again."

Next Morning: Somewhere else

"Zane?" a young feminine voice called into the dark room. A small groan was heard before a figure on the bed rose a little. "I thought I should wake you up now. It's almost time for breakfast. You have enough time to take a shower, if you want."

"Okay, Karen," Zane replied, scratching the back of his head lazily. The young teen girl didn't move. Her blue eyes were slightly closed as she looked at Zane's form. She twirled a few strands of her black hair around her index finger, still keeping her eyes on Zane. He saw that the young teen girl didn't leave right away, but looked more like she was a little worried about something. "Karen? Something wrong? You know you can tell me or your brother."

"Kain already knows," Karen admitted. "But mom was the first to notice. Then Kain found out a few months ago, and I noticed a while ago."

"What's up?" Zane asked slipping on a pair of pants in the still dark room. He already took a shower last night, so he didn't see the point of one for the morning. Besides, something was bothering Karen, and he cared for her like she was his younger sister.

"Mom and Dad thought it would be a good idea not to tell you, but I think you have the right to know. Kain thought about telling you, but mom said that if you knew, it might disturb you a little. Maybe a lot. Daddy thought the same. Mom told him when she found out."

"What do you think I should know about?" Zane asked, putting his black muscle shirt on.

"Well," Karen replied slowly before speeding up her talking. "Mom has the most spiritual power, and Kain has more then me, but I still have a little. Meaning that all three of us can see auras. Your aura, Zane, is a bit demonic. And it's been that way since before your duel with Kain. It still kind of is. There's a very dark red mixed in with your normal dark blue aura."

Zane gave a small sigh before he sat on the bed and motioned Karen to sit next to him. she went over to the bed and took the spot next to the older duelist. "That's nothing for you to worry about," Zane said. "I already know. I figured you, your brother, and your mother have already figured it out."

"Mom says it can be one of two things," Karen stated. "Either you have demon blood in your veins, or you have a demon inside of you."

"I have a demon inside of me," Zane admitted. "He made himself known when I was in my dark mood. Remember that?"

"I also remember big brother beating some sense into you during a duel," Karen stated with a small giggle. "You know, the only one that he won against you."

"Yeah, well, when I had my first duel when I was in my dark mood during the whole thing, that was when he made himself known. He doesn't pose as a threat to me. If he did, I would have talked to your mother about getting rid of him. but he's not posing as a threat, so I'm leaving him alone."

"What's his name? And does he just stay in your head?"

"No, he's taken over a few times. Like in the fight that some thugs tried to start with me and your brother. It was more of a blackout for me, but I knew he took control."

"You didn't say what his name was."

"His name's Shoru," Zane stated.

Me: well, that's the end of that chapter. We no a little more about Yuke and find out Zane has an inner demon as well. If u r curious about Karen and her family, read The Duel Master and the Miko. I haven't posted a chapter with those 2 yet, but I will eventually. But that story should clear out a little about Karen and her family. Anyway, review! Wow, long author note.
