Me: Hey guys, sorry for the late update. I got pretty sick at the beginning of summer which caused me to stay at the hospital about a week or two. When I was discharge, the IV was with me since the antibiotics were liquid instead. Afterwards, my arms were pretty weak so had to go through therapy to get my strength back – which I did, slowly.

Anyway to those that reviewed: secret, Hikari, The-Artful-Trickster, mewmaster89 and Samantha – thank you all and your support!

The-Artful-Trickster: Yubel will show up but you have to wait until she appears and yes, she is still 'evil' like in the anime or possessed.

Anyway enough said, onward to the story!

Summary: What if Haou was Jaden's older brother and was destined to be king for the duel monsters world? What if Jesse lived with Jaden before the two were send to the human dimension and continued living as Jaden Yuki and Jesse Anderson with no memory of their previous lives? What happens when they finally return to their birth place?

Pairings: Haou x Yubel (human)

-Dark World, Unknown location-

"So where do we go this time, Phoenix?"

Aster glared slightly before looking upward to the dark sky. He sighs heavily before closing his eyes, "No clue…unless you have some bright ideas, Zane."

"…I might," murmured the Dark Cyber user. The dark bluenette looked around before spotting a mansion not too far from them. "There. With luck it's abandoned and we can use it for the time being."

Aster slightly pouted, "With our luck? Look what our so called luck has been taken us! We have been attack by some duel monsters since we got here! With no clue of returning back home to our dimension!"

Zane sighed with annoyance, "Would you stop shouting? You're going to draw attention to unwanted guests."

Aster gritted his teeth before the two walked over at the mansion doors.

The Pro-Duelist knocked on the door but after a few minutes that passed, no one opened the doors. Zane narrowed his eyes before looking down and noticed there were a few markings. He frowns a bit before opening the doors.

"Z-Zane?!" said Aster before following the older bluenette. He stopped in front him, "You can't just waltz in here like you own the place!"

The older bluenette sighed, "Look around Phoenix. This mansion is clearly abandoned and attacked…it looks like the owners left rather quickly."

Aster widened his eyes before he turned around to see the foyer was slightly destroyed, there were broken vases, paintings were broken and on the ground, and pieces of wood were scattered everywhere.

The Pro-Duelist walked over to a broken portrait that looked like a family portrait. He bends down and slightly narrowed his eyes, "Did some of the duel monsters attack this place? What happen to the people staying here?"

"Who knows," said Zane with no worry. He crossed his arms, "We will use this place as Headquarters. Hopefully we can find the others in this dimension and find a way to get back home."

Aster smirked, "And here I thought you don't care."

Zane just glared at the young Pro-League duelist before walking over to the second floor. He slightly turned his head, "Check to see if there is any food here."

Aster nodded before getting up and began searching for the kitchen. The silver hair teen found the diner room, the living room and what looked to be a resting room.

All of the rooms were the same state as the main entrance.

Aster sighed before walking down pass the diner room and found the kitchen. The silver hair teen could see that it was an out-dated kitchen from the middle ages, metal pans on the floor, broken wooden chairs and stools, some vegetables on the floor, and silver wares were everywhere.

The Pro-League duelist picked up a dirty carrot, 'Looks like these place have been abandoned for a while…which means there should be a village somewhere around here. I better look around some more before informing Zane.'

After an hour, Aster found Zane sitting at the couch in the living room with his arms crossed.

"Did you found anything?"

"There are about two days of food but it's mostly vegetables and canned beans," replied Aster before carefully taking a seat at an armchair. "If there is any slight chance that the others are here then we need to find food and drinkable water."

"Right," murmured Zane. "There is about at least six bedrooms upstairs. Alexis and Atticus can share a room, Syrus and Hassleberry in another, the two overseas students can share, Anderson and Jaden would bunk together and Chazz gets his own room."

"Which leaves one room extra," murmured Aster before nodding. He looked out of the window, "I just hope we can find them before those duel monster do."

Zane stayed quiet before getting up, "Best be heading to bed Phoenix. We will need our strength if we plan to finding them…we haven't slept for more than three hours since we got here."

"Right," murmured Aster before following the older bluenette.

In the morning, or what looked like to be morning, Zane and Aster headed out from the mansion to look for a nearby town. Zane used his Cyber End Dragon to roam around the Dark World.

They flew around for about an hour but couldn't find any village but they did find a river stream not too far from the mansion. Just as Zane was about to order his dragon to fly down; Aster suddenly pointed over to the left.

"Look down there! An army of dark type duel monsters!"

"It would seem like it," murmured Zane before telling his ace card to land. The dragon landed not too far from the pathway and used the trees as a cover up.

The army line walked pass by them without notice.

Zane and Aster watched behind the trees and saw two metal cages that had prisoners inside. That's when Aster narrowed his eyes a bit before widening them, "Is that your little brother and his friends in there?!"

Zane had a dark look on his face, "Those bastards going to pay dearly."

Aster was about to say something when he spotted someone…or rather two that looked familiar. "Is-Is that Jesse – two Jesse's?!"

Zane looked up to see there was indeed Jesse riding a dark version of Sapphire Pegasus with someone that looked like him but a bit older.

"The one in the front is Anderson but," stated Zane before frowning. "The person behind him is not. The question is, who is he and why does he look like Anderson?"

"No idea but we have to think of a way to bust Syrus and the others," whispered Aster, seriously. He looked around before frowning, "The other question, where is Jaden?"

Zane lifted his eyebrow before the two heard the look alike Jesse speaking to the dark army.

"Not much farther to the Dimension door! Don't fall behind! If you do, you're on your own! Understood?!"

"Yes, Lord Johan!"

"Dimension door?" said Aster, softly. He rubbed his chin, "What do we do? If we set Syrus and the others free, they might have some information about this world."

Zane thought for a moment, "Let's follow them. I highly doubt that we can take down that many duel monsters and that includes their leader."

"Point taken," murmured Aster before sighing. "But we have to be careful if we don't want to be spotted by the army or these Johan character."

Zane nodded before the two used the shadows of the trees and walked close by the army. It took about half an hour when they reached to a large brown door.

Zane and Aster walked over to a large boulder and saw the Dark Pegasus land near the door. The so called Johan dismounts and walked over to the left side of the door. The two of them couldn't see what he was doing but after a few moments the door opened.

Johan turned over at the army, "The prisoners enter first!"

Zane and Aster watched as the small group dragged the two metal cages and entered through the brown doors. The two of them were about to enter when Zane heard a familiar voice behind him.

"D-Dr. Crowler?!"

"Oh Zane, my dear boy! I'm so glad to see you here!" said Crowler, happily. "You and Phoenix came to rescue me from this dreadful place!"

"Keep your voice down," hissed Zane, darkly. He grabbed Crowler's arm while Aster looked a bit to see if any of the duel monsters heard his former teacher.

Luck was finally on their side.

"Look Crowler, we didn't come here to save you. Heck we didn't know you were here," whispered Aster before sighing. "We only know that Jaden and his friends are here but right now they are captured from that army over there."

"S-Seriously?!" said Crowler before freaking out a bit. "This is not good! This is not good! What am I going to do if Sheppard finds out about this?!"

"He wouldn't find out if you get captured or even killed," stated Zane, harshly.

"K-Killed?!" shouted Crowler before Aster slapped his mouth shut.

"Quiet," hissed Aster. He looked back at the door to see everyone entering the door and noticed their leader and Jesse had passed through. "Let's make a run for it when the last person enters."

"Right, think you can keep up Crowler?" said Zane.

Crowler sighed, "I may be tired from all the running I did for the past week or so but a few more wouldn't kill me…I think."

Aster nodded before the three of them waited until the last duel monster entered the doors. They waited for a few good seconds before entering into the large doors. What they saw was unexpected.

The same goes with Syrus and the others when they saw where Haou rules.

Down from the left side of the cliff was a large village, multiple cottage houses, a rather large town square with a fountain in the middle and nearby was beautiful lake. Not too far from the village, there was a pathway leading to a large white castle. It had at least five towers with blue rooftops, a few balconies and a large gate wall.

Even though it was quite a distance, Alexis and Jim could see that the town folks are healthy and happy. None of them looked injured or in fear, instead they have smiling faces.

"I…I don't get it," murmured Alexis. "If this Haou person is supposedly a heartless ruler then, why are the people here happy?"

"That's a good question there lass," said Jim as he rubbed his chin. He looked over to the front, "And we're about to find out soon enough."

The others looked ahead to see that they were getting close to the white castle.

-Haou's castle, Diner room-

Jaden was happily eating his lunch since he can finally walk again while his brother was looking over at some taxes documents and salary payments over the villagers.

'I guess is not easy to run a kingdom…glad I'm not going to experience that anytime soon,' thought Jaden.

"Has the shipping of the new supplies come yet?" wondered Haou.

"In about two days Haou," replied Aqua.

Haou nodded but just as he was about to speak, the doors open and came in was…

"J-Jesse?!" shouted Jaden before getting up and dashed over to his best friend. The brunette hugged Jesse with a huge smile on his face.

The bluenette stumbled a bit before returning the friendly greeting. He smiled, "Glad to know that you are alright Jaden. How's your back? It's alright, now?"

Jaden let go and nodded, "It's all healed up but what about you? How are you here? Aqua told me that everyone in Duel Academy returned back home."

Jesse bit his lip, "We did…but I came back so that I can find you and bring you back home. That is until I recently found out that well…we are home."

"Yea…that was quite a shock to me as well," said Jaden before seeing Ruby appear on top of Jesse's head. "Hey there Ruby, long time no see!"

"Rubi!" said the small crystal beast. That's when Winged Kuriboh appears and happily flew towards Ruby. At first it was a friendly greeting but once again they started fighting.

"Winged Kuriboh/Ruby!"

Johan chuckled a bit before walking over to Haou and Aqua. "I take it that everything is alright, so far. No incidents happen while I was gone?"

Haou frowned, "You're not the boss of me, you're my knight. As for incidents…only one but it has been handled."

Johan raised his eyebrow before letting it drop until later. "Very well as for the southern village, most villagers were light followers while a few duelists were trying to protect them, not knowing they were the enemy. I had to take a few prisoners as they were teenagers, not adults."

Haou nodded before standing up, "Aqua, take Jaden and Jesse. I'll be heading over to the holding cells and deal with the prisoners that Johan brought."

"Alright, we will be at the training grounds," said Aqua. "I will be teaching them on how to summon without using their duel disk. Mind handing me Jaden's deck?"

Haou nodded before handing her his little brother's Elemental Hero/Neo-Spacian deck.

Aqua smiled before walking over to Jaden and Jesse. The older brunette saw that his younger brother had a slight frown before nodding his head. The three of them headed out of the diner room.

Haou sighed before gesturing his knight to follow him down to the holding cells. The trip didn't take long since the cells were not too far from the entrance gates.

"My King, there are a few children about the ages of six to ten and one duel spirit that were not followers," reported Guardian Baou.

"The prisoners are seven teenagers, one of them has a crocodile strapped behind his back, and two warrior type duel spirits," reported Chaos Sorcerer.

'A crocodile strapped – wait a moment!' thought Haou before glaring over at Johan. "Care to explain why my brother's friends were helping the light followers?"

"Hey don't ask me, ask them," stated Johan.

Haou sighed, heavily, "After I deal with the two duel spirits – bring them in!"

White and Dark Skilled Magician nodded before gesturing the guards to bring forth the two prisoners. It didn't take long for the two guards to bring Command Knight and Marauding Captain.

Haou could easily see the light aura forming around Marauding Captain. The dull look on his eyes was a dead giveaway.

"So at last we see your pathetic face, King Haou," sneer Marauding Captain before smirking. "What more destruction will you bring upon to thy neighboring kingdom until you are satisfied?!"

"Torture us all you want! We will stand what is right and fight for our freedom!" shouted Command Knight.

Haou narrowed his eyes, "Oh do you…Chaos would you hand me the red whip?"

Chaos Sorcerer nodded his head before walking over to the left side of the wall and grabbed hold onto a particular red whip that had a metal handle. His Elite handed him the whip before Haou gave it to Johan.

Haou looked down over at the female knight. He frowns, "If what you say is true then you wouldn't mind taking a few whips for your…leader, would you?"

Command Knight or Elisa looked at the whip nervously before having a determine look on her face. "Go ahead! I can take it!"

Haou stayed silent before closing his eyes and gave Johan the signal.

Johan gave them a chilling smiling before he started activating the whip. The reason why it was red was cause it was made out of pure leather lava with a sharp metal point at the end.

"You should have kept your mouth shut," said Johan before whipping at the female knight.

"Ahhhhh!" screamed Elisa. She fell onto the stone floor and curled herself to try to lessen the pain. Her legs and hands were bound by chains so there was no escape from her torment.

"My, my…Marauding Captain or should I say Mark Ellsberg," sneer Haou. "Are you not going to beg me to stop this…wrong doing? Your comrade is in dire need of help."

Mark looked over at his fallen knight before looking over at Haou. "There is nothing wrong with a little sacrifice," replied Mark, coldly. "War means either you survive or to be killed! Warriors are just pieces that can be easily replaced to better ones!"

Haou narrowed his eyes at him while Elisa couldn't believe what she was hearing.

'Am I…just a piece then,' thought Elisa before noticing that the whipping stopped. She looked up to see Haou's knight holding onto to the red whip onto his side and was glaring at Mark with hatred.

Haou smirked, "Nice to know that you are showing your true self…light follower."

Mark cursed silently and grits his teeth.

Elisa widened her eyes, "A-A light follower?! No it can't be true! Mark is not one of them! He can't be a follower to the Light of Destruction! He can't be!"

"But he is," said Haou before looking over at Baou. "Take this bastard in Cell Block 6…I do believe they are quite hungry."

"They?!" shouted Mark. "Who is they?! Answer me you bastard! Let me go! Let me go!"

Elisa watched her dearest friend to be dragged out of the room by the two guards, leaving her by herself with the young king and his knight. She know her life is about to end soon.

"Chaos…take Miss Elisa to the infirmary and have Ella and Lily to heal her burn marks," said Haou, softly.

Elisa's head shot up, "W-What? You…You're not going to kill me?"

"I was never planning to," murmured Haou. "Once she is healed, take her where the other survivors are at."

Chaos bowed before carefully picking up Elisa and took her out of the holding cells.

"I sort of feel bad for the young lady," said Johan with a frown. "She had to learn that her comrade and most likely her love interest was a follower of the light."

"Indeed…now all that is left," said Haou before walking over to where seven teenagers and one crocodile were at. All of them were giving him hatred glares expect for a girl with long dirty blond hair and a boy with spiky black hair, wearing a hat and his left eye was covered with bandages.

'So these are Jaden's friends.'

"Sam hill! You do look like the sarge!"

"Only…he has golden eyes and um…a bit scary looking."

"Quite whining, you dork! He doesn't look so tough."

"Try telling that to those that have fought him!"

Haou and Johan watched with a bit of amusement as Jaden's friends were bickering back and forth. It wasn't long until Haou gave out a warm laughter.

Alexis and the others stopped to hear him laugh.

The older brunette laughed just like how Jaden does expect his was much heavier while their friend's laughter was lighter.

"No wonder Jaden has all of you as friends," stated Haou while Johan smirked a bit. "You're quite an entertainment, ever thought of becoming performers?"

"Um…with all due respect um…your highness, but should you be torturing us – I mean we heard that you are this heartless King and would kill without mercy."

Haou frowned, "So that's what has been said about me for the past twelve years. I've heard some nasty comments here and there but a heartless person that would kill without reason? Johan, do I really show that?"

"Sort of but don't forget, it's not really your fault," said Johan. "Your powers are sync to your emotions. You have to control your temper if you don't want to destroy your own kingdom."

"Point taken," murmured Haou.

Alexis and the others had their mouths open in shock.

"Wait! You mean to tell me that the only reason why you show no emotions is so you can control your powers?!"

"That's right," said Haou before frowning. "It would be easier if I know your names though."

"…Alexis Rhodes."

"And I'm her lovable older brother, Atticus Rhodes at your service."

"S-Syrus Truesdale, sir!"

"The name's Chazz, thy Chazz Princeton."

"Tyranno Hassleberry, General."

"The name's Jim Cook, your Majesty and this here is Shirley."

"Axel Brodie, your Majesty."

Haou nodded, "To answer to your question, young Atticus, no you're not going to be tortured. It's against my kingdom's law to harm children in any form of punishment."

"So…what are you going to do with us?" asked Syrus, nervously.

Haou thought for a moment before smirking a bit. "All of you will be reuniting with my younger brother…but in a different matter, community service."

Alexis and the others looked at each other in confusion. What kind of community service they have to serve?

-Break Line-

Jesse and Jaden, finally reunited but what about Jaden's friends? What kind of community service Haou is thinking about? And how will Aster, Zane and Crowler do to help the others escape?

Find out in the next update! Ciao guys!
