Thanks for the reviews=) It makes me really happy. *Bows down* Please keep reading, and I will keep posting.
Disclaimer: Nope, still not mine.
-------------------
The blue haired youth gives a tired sigh, looking over the sea from where he sat. He had no idea why he was back at this place, but he had gotten a note from someone, it said that someone had found out something about Judai, so of course he would come right away.
He gives a deep breath, hoping it would give him the strength to get up and go to the underground lab, but he still didn't feel he had the power for it.
"Ruby!" The small gem beast complains, snuggling against Johan's neck.
"Hey, I know, I'll get up soon." He whispers, hugging Ruby. "I'm just nervous, ok? I have followed different leads for three years now, I soon won't have more strength for the let downs."
The small creature looks worried at his friend. Johan hadn't been himself after Judai had disappeared, after all, Johan hadn't been in love with someone before.
"You know what Ruby? The worst thing is… that I never got to tell Judai that I loved him." Johan whispers, Ruby looking sadder at him. "No matter what, I won't rest before I have told him."
Johan get slowly up, brushing his now longer hair out of his face, before he started on the walk towards the lab, if it would just be a real lead this time, if he could only get the proof that Judai was alright!
He open the door to the lab, before he walk slowly down the stairs. Listening to the noises from the bottom, it seemed the whole gang had been called together. Or at least the ones of them that still had any hope that Judai was alive.
"You should all be thankful that a pro like me even feels like coming here." He can hear Manjoume complain.
"Shut up Manjoume, you are as worried as the rest of us." Asuka complains. Johan stopping in the stairs, he had read about most of them in the news papers, but he hadn't seen any of them for a while. "Isn't Sho and Kaiser coming?"
"Sho said there was no need to come." Kenzan whispers. "He really don't think we will find Judai Aniki, and Kaiser isn't well enough to come."
"Edo then?" Fubuki asks.
"He has a duel this weekend, he will come after it is over." Manjoume complains. "But don't worry about that guy, I am all you need."
"What about Johan, isn't he coming?" Rei whispers.
"We tried to send the message to him, but we got no reply." Asuka answers.
"Has anyone seen him for the past few years?" Manjoume asks, no one answering. "I guess the guy is worse off than us…"
"Hey, you guys shouldn't talk bad about a guy that is outside the door." Johan laughs, everyone turning against him as he entered the room.
"Johan!" Asuka cheers, both her and Rei hugging him as he came over to them. "We haven't seem you in years! Where have you been?"
"I have been looking." Johan whispers, no one asking what he meant with that, he had been the one most obsessed with finding Judai after all. "What is it that the professor wanted to show us?"
"We don't know yet, we were waiting for you." Manjoume complains. All of them turning as the professor came into the room, motioning for them all to follow him. "So, what is it that was of such great importance that you had to call all of us together?"
"I have received a wave message from the other dimension." Dr. Zweinstein explains, leading them over to the giant monitor. "I didn't know what to do, I would have called for Judai, but as he isn't here anymore, I had to call for his friends that once explored the other worlds together with him."
"So when you said you had something on Judai… it was just to get us all here?" Johan asks, the professor nodding ashamed. Johan giving a defeated sigh, the last of his hope fading. He had been so sure that it was a good lead this time, he had been so sure!
"I am sorry for lying, but I still need all of your help to try to understand what was on the other side." He whispers, putting the monitor on, everyone looking confused at the flashing screen. "This video came in for about two days ago, we are still unable to understand the significance of it, if it is any danger for our world or not."
The screen change, still shaking a lot, before someone appear on it, people running back and forth inside the room, the monitor to dark to really show what any of them was.
"Hey, I think it is receiving my lord." Someone says, more static coming over the screen as the person who spoke looked right at them, moving away as they could hear someone with heavy boots come towards the screen. "Lord?"
"Do you know where the signal is going?" A familiar voice asks, Johan getting quickly up the corner he had sit down in.
"No, all I know is that the light is on like the professor told me it was supposed to be." The youth answers, jumping away as the Lord came into view, dressed in the same armour he had had the last time, but without the helmet, showing the now longer black hair, and yellow eyes glowing towards the spectators, Johan's heart making a jump in his chest.
"The light is going out." He whispers, the entire screen going black.
Minutes without anyone saying anything, the professor trying to understand what had startled the rest of them.
"Judai…" Johan whispers, falling to his knees. "Judai, he is alive, he is really alive."
"But, that was the supreme king, right?" the yellow Oujama complains, Johan nodding. "He was a really scary guy! If that guy is back we are all in trouble!"
"Shut up." Manjoume complains, over all the years, and he was still stuck with those small assholes, at least Judai ended up with one of the strongest duel monster spirits. "That guy is probably harmless."
"Haou Judai, is not harmless." Johan whispers, remembering back to the things he saw when he was possessed by Yubel. "He almost annihilated all the life in an entire dimension, even thou Judai always is the one to save us, he also proved to have the greatest darkness inside him."
"So that was how Judai looked then?" Asuka stammers, she had never seen Judai like that, it was terrifying, maybe it had been better for her to not be one of the ones to face him? "Can't this just be something sent from then?"
"No, Judai had long hair." Johan point out, everyone nodding agreeing. "This is new, that means Judai is alive! In the other world."
"Professor, can you find a way in getting us back there?" Manjoume asks, the others nodding agreeing.
"I have been working on a new special loop hole, I am almost done with the machine, but I am sorry to say that I can't get it completed." He sighs. "I don't have enough money to pay for my research anymore. The school has stopped the payments, since they don't want anything more to do with the other dimensions."
"If it is money you need, I know how to get it." Johan answers, getting his phone out of his pocket. "Does anyone have the number of Judai's father?"
"I have Mimiko's." Kenzan says, before Manjoume hand his phone to Johan.
"I have his number, he is one of my sponsors." Manjoume answers, Johan quickly dialling the number. Waiting for answer.
"Yukimora residence, who is speaking?" They can hear on the other side.
"Yoko? This is Johan, one of Judai's friends." Johan starts.
"Johan-chan, it has been so long since I heard from you." She whispers worried. "What are you calling for so late?"
"Is your husband home? I need to talk to him." Johan answers, not able to hide his growing excitement, Judai was alive, he was really alive!
"Johan, does it have anything to do with Judai?" Yoko asks, as her husband walked past the phone together with Mimiko.
"Yes, we have found him, he is alive." Johan whispers, Yoko handing the phone over to her husband. "Yukimora, can you come to the lab at duel academy? We have gotten a transmission from another dimension, we have the transmission here, it is Judai, no doubt about it."
"I'm leaving right away." Ryoga whispers, almost stumbling over his legs as he tried to put the phone away. "My plane, get my plane ready."
"What did Johan want daddy?" Mimiko asks, helping him up from the floor.
"They have found Judai." He whispers, stumbling over his legs again as he had almost reached the door. "I have to get going, he is probably alone and afraid somewhere, I have to find him…"
"I am coming too!" The now 13 year old girl orders, running to get her jacket and shoes. "I want to help big brother too, no matter what!"
"I will be staying home." Yoko laughs, brushing her stomach gently. "It won't be long before little Judai is born."
"I'll be back in good time." Ryoga laughs, kissing his wife gently on the cheek. "And when we bring home big Judai we have to think of another name, or they will both end up confused."
"I'll think of something." She giggles, waving to her husband and daughter as they ran off, stumbling over each other the entire way. After loosing Judai, Ryoga had opened his eyes for his family, before he had thought duel monster spirits were fake, but he had seen them then, and he had seen the world that his son had grown up in alone. And even thou he had failed Judai and his mother, he would do all in his power to not fail Mimiko and Yoko, or the unborn that would probably have the same gift.
-------------------
"It really is my son." Ryoga stammers, looking at the movie one more time, Mimiko holding his hand gently. "But those clothes, that presence… it isn't like Judai at all, and they call him lord."
"The reason he faded from this world, was because he was the king over that world." The professor whispers, as the other had explained him what had happened to Judai. "What kept him here was that one part of his soul kept him here, I guess that was the Yubel card in this world, there is probably one in that world too."
"So, If we make a Yubel card and get to place Yubel's soul from that world in it, can we get Judai to return to this world?" Asuka asks, the professor nodding. "We can ask Pegasus, he would do it, right? Judai has helped him many times."
"I have already sent a request to him." The chancellor whispers, looking at the silent father, who looked at the paused screen, that didn't look like his kind son at all. He just hoped it wouldn't be too late to save him, from whatever darkness had taken him over. "But we all know that one problem remains."
"To find a way to let Judai stay here without melting the two worlds together." Johan whispers, the chancellor nodding. "We arrange everything first, and go, maybe we can find out something there, maybe we have to find someone to rule in Judai's place?"
"Well, there is always one of the good guys meant to take over when a really bad guy rules, right?" Kenzan asks, the others sweat dropping. "Hey, if that is Supreme king Judai, he is the bad guy, right?"
"Yeah." Asuka whispers, none of them really wanting to think of Judai as an enemy again.
"Has anyone called for Jim and O'Brian?" Johan asks, looking over at Kenzan and Manjoume.
"We told them what had happened, but they don't have time to come." Manjoume whispers, giving a sigh. "Jim has to take care of Karen, since she got hit by a sniper or something a few days ago, and O'Brian is working on another case for Pegasus."
"But they both wanted to come." Kenzan whispers. "They are really sorry, and if they can help with anything at all they will."
"I can only send a few persons trough when I have the machine complete." The professor explains, showing his papers on the machine. "I have for a while studied a way to build up the duel energy, and I have collected a lot of it from the school."
"What do you need money for then?" Johan asks.
"To build the portal, I need a stable portal that will allow people to walk trough it when it is surged with the duel energy that is stored up." The professor explains.
"But isn't it bad to take duel energy?" Asuka asks.
"Like it happened before was bad, but I just take a little from one person once a month, it isn't enough to affect them one bit." The professor reassures, before he shows his half finished gate. "I only need money to get it finished, but when I get the founds, it will be ready to try out within a week."
"Tell me how much you need, I will gladly give it." Ryoga whispers, handing the overjoyed professor a brief case. "If any of it remains when you are done building, you can keep it."
"Thank you kind sir, I will start on the gate right away, you should all try to decide who is to go, I can't send more than five people if it is to stand stable." The professor answers, the others nodding, walking out of the lab to let the professor and his people work.
"So, who of us goes?" Manjoume asks.
"I am going, I have to get my son back." Ryoga says right away.
"No one is going to stop me from going." Johan laughs, man he was exited! He was going to meet Judai again! He had never felt so happy before! "I can't wait to give that escaping bastard some piece of my mind!"
"I am coming too, this time I will help Judai." Asuka whispers, she felt terrified over the thought of the supreme king, but Judai was her friend, she owed him to help him, after all he had done for them.
"I'm coming too."
All of them shriek out, before they saw the giant sitting crouched over in a tree above them.
"Jordan! What the hell is wrong with you?" Mimiko complains, her father hitting her on the head for her use of language. "I want to come too! I can help big brother this time!"
"You can't Mimiko, you have to stay together with your mother, she needs one of us to stay with her." Ryoga answers, Mimiko giving a defeated nod.
"Then I guess I will be the last one to come then." Manjoume laughs, looking a little pissed at the rest as they seemed like they hadn't expected that. "Hey! I am his rival! To leave before I even won once!"
"Has anyone told Sho yet?" Johan asks.
"I called him, he was happy and wanted to come, but Kaiser is in a bad shape at the moment, so he couldn't come." Kenzan explains. "I feel a little bad for Aniki, after all he always had time for us, most of us really… don't have time for him anymore."
"You really want to come too don't you?" Johan asks, Kenzan nodding. "I bet you can help at this side, when the others have time, they can come and support us from here, I bet Sho and Kaiser can come here too then."
"Yeah." Kenzan sighs, he wanted to be able to help his Aniki, but he wasn't the strongest of them, if they came into a pinch, he wasn't the one who could help them get Judai back at all.
He just hoped there was a chance that Judai could come back to them, and even if he did, he wouldn't fit in anywhere anymore would he? He hadn't even officially graduated.
Judai had always been in a whole other world than the rest of them.
-------------------
"Sensei, we are receiving a new transmission over the same frequency." The young apprentice yell, turning against the head of the research team. "What do we do?"
"Try to do something to uphold the contact this time." Misawa answers, coming over to check if there was a way to open a link. "Try to clean the frequency, maybe we can get the message if we clean it enough."
"… llo… s… here… b… there?"
"Come on! Give me something better to work with!" Misawa complains, working like crazy on the keyboard, doing his best in cleaning the transmission up. "There! That should do it!"
"Hello, is there anybody there?" Is heard over the monitor, Misawa swearing that he knew that voice from before. "This is professor Zweinstein, from the dimension known as Terra, are we in contact with intelligent life?"
"Professor! It is me, Misawa!" He cheers over the communicator, some of his apprentices trying to send the message over, all of them waiting in suspense for an answer.
"Misawa? Is that you my boy?" The professor stammers. "You are alive! But after all these years?"
"I remained here at my own free will, don't feel bad about it." Misawa answers, all of them waiting for the next transmission.
"I have soon done it my boy, a usable transporter gate! I sent some stuff trough an hour ago, have something happened at your position?" The professor asks.
"Something happened a half hour ago, someone got a metal box in their head, they are ok, but they were out for a while." Misawa point out, laughing as he looked at the still twirling youth.
"Then it is complete Misawa! One day more with testing and we will send someone to get you back home!" The professor cheers.
"What, are you going away sensei?" Some of the youths asks, all of them looking sad at their teacher. It wasn't to be denied that Misawa was the smartest man in that dimension, so he had been set to teach the young generation a few things, as they were trying to advance their world a few more steps. "Don't go…"
"Professor, I am really sorry, but please don't make that gate." Misawa whispers.
"But why? This is what we worked on for so long Misawa, and we can get you and Judai back to where you belong!" The professor stammers in shock.
"This world is too unstable for the moment, and I won't leave it, I have a family here that needs me, and Judai won't be able to leave either." Misawa explains, looking sad down. "If you are planning to send someone after us, please let it be."
"It is too late my boy, I have already made all the preparations, they will be sent your way tomorrow, even if I didn't want to send them, they would gag me and send themselves." The professor complains, Misawa giving a sigh. Judai's friends alright, there were no way in stopping those carefree idiots. "Is there something we need to know? Is it safe to send them?"
"This world is never safe professor, it might be calm now, but it will soon boil up again." Misawa whispers, before he gives sign for his students to kill the signal. "Ok! Tomorrow we will be expecting guests! They might be weird, but they are friends of the lord, treat them there after!"
"Hai! Sensei!" Everyone cheers, Misawa giving a sigh, before he pulled out the communicator he had made half a year ago, at least it let him stay in touch with people without having to send letter with the flying duel monsters.
"Judai here, what do you want Misawa?" Is heard from the other side of the communicator.
"We got a signal trough." Misawa answers, the other side going silent. "What will you have us do? The professor said they are sending someone over to get us back."
"How do they know I am here?" Judai asks confused.
"I guess the students were unlucky and sent the signal out when you were here." Misawa whispers. "You want me to take care of it?"
"Keep them occupied when they come, but get them away again as fast as you can, tell them nothing of me." Judai whispers, before he end the conversation, looking thoughtful over the throne room. It was lighter than the last time he had ruled that world, and some servants walked past as they did their work. "What do you think? Yubel?"
"I think you would have good in seeing them again." Yubel whispers, leaning over the throne from her usual place behind Judai. If people looked at him as the king, they looked at Yubel as the Queen, she always stood behind their lord's side after all. "And even thou you can't go back with them, you can still spend time with them."
"I know." Judai laughs, looking at the fine crystal cup one of the servants had handed him, the fine red liquid almost glowing as he held it towards the lights in the ceiling. "Maybe it would be fun to bother that gang a little again."
------------------------
The light had already closed around them as it happened. The portal was opening, as Johan grabbed confused unto someone that jumped in after them.
"Mimiko! What are you doing here?!" Ryoga yell in panic, looking at his daughter and Johan, that fell away from the rest of them as they were pulled up into the portal. "Mimiko!"
"I am going to get big brother back! Mommy said I should come too!" She yell, clutching hard to Johan as they started fading to the other dimension.
"We are too many!" Manjoume yell, grabbing unto Asuka and Jordan as they had been about to fall away, Jordan grabbing hard unto Ryoga that had been about to float away to get to Mimiko. "Try to keep together! This thing is dangerous when it is unstable!"
"But Mimiko!" Ryoga yell, as Johan and Mimiko disappeared in before them.
"Johan will take care of her! He has been there before, so it will be ok." Asuka whispers, all of them holding unto each others hands so they wouldn't fall away. "Everything will be ok."
--------------------------
"Are you ok? Johan?" Mimiko hiccups, shaking the blue haired boy gently. "I'm so sorry, I didn't think this would happen."
Green eyes opens slowly, looking up at the worried Mimiko.
"It is ok, where are we?" Johan whispers, sitting up, looking confused around in the winter night.
"We must have lost dad and the others." Mimiko stammers, clutching sobbing to Johan, who tried to comfort her. "It is all my fault! I just wanted to see big brother again!"
"Heh, me too." Johan laughs, collecting their bags, before he got up. "We should try to find a place to stay for the night, I guess we came about a day later than the rest."
"Is it true that big brother might be evil?" Mimiko asks, clutching unto Johan's hand as they walked.
"Yeah, the others think so, but I don't think that, he wouldn't fall into the darkness a second time, he knows we care for him, and that we would want him to be happy." Johan laughs, Mimiko nodding happy. "And this place looks a lot better than the last time, then it was just desert and dead forests as long as the eye could see, I can see lights in the distance, I guess that means there is towns here. Last time it was forsaken villages."
"Maybe big brother is making it better?" Mimiko asks, Johan thinking over it, before he nods.
"I really can't imagine that slacker being able to take control over anyone else than himself thou." Johan laughs, before they arrived in the village, looking amazed over the small but cosy looking town. Some kids were out in the snow playing, the grown ups working on getting more firewood into the house, some additional duel monsters helping them. "Wow, this place has changed over three years."
Some kids comes running over to them, Johan sitting down on his knees before them.
"Hey, do you know if there is a place we can sleep tonight?" Johan asks, the young girls giggling as the handsome boy smiled to them.
"Are you from the other town?" A elderly man asks, coming to meet the newcomers.
"We are here from another dimension." Johan answer truthfully, not shocked over the fact that he was believed. "We are here to meet the supreme king, do you know where we can meet him?"
"The king huh, he haven't been this way for a while, but if you want to meet him, I guess I can get some of the youths to show you the way in the morning." The old man sighs, patting the young girl on the head. "But why are people from the other world here to meet the king?"
"He is my big brother." Mimiko whispers, the old man nodding understanding. "Can we sleep in this town tonight?"
"You can stay at the local in, it is free." He laughs, showing them the way. "We don't get visitors from the other world anymore, we know it where the supreme king and the professor came from, but other than that we haven't seen travellers for a long time."
"The professor, who is that?" Johan asks, setting his stuff down as they had come to the room for travellers.
"He is an old friend of the supreme king, he teaches the people in our world how the science in your world works, he has helped a lot of us out of the darkness of ignorance." He laughs, holding up some papers he had in his pocket. "My little granddaughter is learning to count from him, she might be one of his new apprentices."
"That sounds great." Johan laughs, looking over the room. "Ok Mimiko, you can take the bed, I will sleep on the coach."
"Ok." She giggles, both of them bowing to the old man as he left them. "I think this place isn't as scary as I thought it would be."
"It has changed a lot." Johan laughs, looking out of the window, waving to some of the girls that waved to him. "This place looks a lot better now."
"Do you think we will find daddy and the others tomorrow?" She whispers, as she had been about to fall asleep.
"Yeah, If we find the lab where the portal was going to toss us out, they are probably there." Johan answers, getting up to lay the blankets over Mimiko, that had fallen asleep. "Don't worry, we are going to find Judai."
"Big brother." Mimiko whispers, turning in the bed, a happy smile on her lips. She would soon be able to tell her big brother how sorry she was for what she had said that time. To tell how sorry she were for saying that her brother wasn't her brother!
------------------
"They got separated?" Judai asks confused, looking at the communicator, where a nervous Misawa tried to find something to say. "But what happened?"
"They were only supposed to be five person, but your sister jumped in at the last minute and made it unstable, we have to follow the professor guidelines and make a gate here too, before they can be sent back." Misawa whispers.
"But, who got separated from the others?" Judai asks.
"One guy I don't really know who is, and your sister… I got a call from one of my apprentices in the new valley area, it seems they arrived there yesterday, and someone is taking them towards the lab from there today." Misawa whispers, giving a nervous gulp.
"But, weren't that the place where some of the duel monsters has been running rampant for the last few days?" Judai asks, Misawa agreeing without really wanting to. "Have you heard anything more from them? And is the ones with you ok?"
"I haven't heard from them, and your father didn't want to wait when he heard they were in dangerous area, so they all left to look for them! No one wanted to listen to me!" Misawa cries in panic, his apprentices trying to comfort him.
"Damn! Call me again if you have something, I am going to find them myself!" Judai complains, putting the com away, before he got up from his throne, some of the servants coming as he called for them. "Get my horse ready, and arrange guest rooms for six people. I have a feeling this castle will be crowded soon."
"As you wish." The head of the servants answers, sending the others off to do as ordered. Judai soon leaving the castle, the sighing Yubel watching him leave from the window in the throne room. "Yubel-sama, is everything ok?"
"Yeah, I just have a feeling that Judai will have to make a hard choice again soon." She whispers, giving a deep sigh. "But he knows where he belongs this time, so it won't be much for him to choose between."
---------------------
"Come on, you can see the castle there!" Mimiko giggles, pulling the nervous Johan with her over the open snow fields. "I bet the others are there waiting for us with big brother!"
"I'm not so sure about this." Johan stammers, looking to the clouded skies, he had a feeling something was watching them. "Ruby, do you see something?"
"Ruby!" The small creature cries, motioning to the skies above them, but they saw nothing.
"We don't even know if he still lives in that castle." Johan sighs, it would probably be another days walk towards the castle in the pace they were going.
"He has to!" Mimiko complains, before she looks towards someone approaching them in the distance. "See! It is daddy!"
"They found us!" Johan cheers, waving to them, before he goes silent, they seemed to be yelling something. "They seem to be in a panic…"
"Johan? What is that?" Mimiko stammers, pointing at something above them, Johan turning slowly. "Isn't that a duel monster?"
Johan gives a cry, pushing Mimiko the ground as the harpy lady advanced on them, soon coming around for a second turn as the first attack had failed.
"Johan!" Mimiko cries, as he pushed her away from the harpy, getting plucked up himself, tossing desperate around as he tried to get free from the man sick bird woman.
"Let me down!" Johan complains, jumping up and down for dear life, but he gives a shriek, as she had almost lost him to the ground. "Don't let me down from here! Fly me down! Then let me down!"
"We have to get Johan down." Asuka complains, as they had gotten a hold of the terrified girl.
"That scary broad is taking him really long away now." Manjoume complains, thinking over if he should help, he had heard rumours from Sho that Johan liked Judai, he had no use for rivals. "Who is going after?"
"Can't we send a monster to help instead of just standing here!" Asuka complains, about to send one of her own monsters after, when something fast went past them, all of them looking terrified into the yellow eyes of the supreme king, as he gazed upon them as he went past, before he returned his gaze to his goal, getting the horse to run as quick as it could. "Judai…"
He had almost caught up to the harpy, when he pulled out a card.
"Go! Neos!" He yell, Neos appearing. "Take that Harpy down!"
"Hey! I am up here too!!" Johan complains, giving a cry as Neos hit the harpy away, he himself falling right down, giving a grunt as someone caught him. "Man Judai! Be a little considerate!"
"I'm sorry." Judai whispers, setting Johan gently down on the ground, brushing some dust gently off his cheek. "She would have dropped you from the next cliff over there, hadn't I done something you would have fallen to your death."
"Wah, this place is too dangerous." Johan complains, sitting right down on the ground, smiling to the silent Judai. "Come on, I haven't changed so much in three years have I? You still recognize me?"
"I think I liked you better with shorter hair." Judai point out, letting his hand brush trough the longer blue hair. "But this is good too."
Johan blush, as Judai lent in, giving him a gentle kiss on the lips, moving away from him again as the other came into view.
"Big brother!" Mimiko cheers, about to give him a hug, but she stopped. He wasn't smiling, he looked angry… "I missed you, did you miss me?"
"Of course." Judai whispers, sitting down on his knees before her. "You shouldn't run around in this world without thinking over it, it can be dangerous."
"Ok." She whispers, Judai giving her a gentle hug as she started hiccupping. "I'll be more careful brother, I promise."
"We should get into the castle before it is dark." Judai whispers, setting Mimiko up on one of the horses the servants had come after with, before he jump unto his own horse. "The harpies will come back for revenge soon."
"Hey, there is no horse for me!" Johan complains, giving a meep as Judai pulled him easy up, the poor blue haired boy turning red as Judai placed him in front of himself. "I could have waited…"
"Where would the fun in that be?" Judai whispers, Johan once more turning red, not really minding it, as they set off, the others coming slowly after. "I had a feeling I would see you again, you are never one to know when to quit."
"Of course not, I… have been looking for you for three years." Johan whispers, Judai looking a little sad down. He had actually hoped that Johan would be able to forget about him, it had at least been less pain for one of them then. "But now I have found you…"
Judai stiffens, as Johan laid back in his embrace, just enjoying the closeness he had missed for so long.
"You guys shouldn't have come here." Judai whispers, Johan looking confused at him. "I know what you want, but I won't come back with you… it would only hurt your world."
"We are here to find a way, so don't worry, we won't leave before we can bring you with us." Johan whispers, giving a grin to the silent Judai. Before he clutched desperate to him, as the horses stopped, he almost getting tossed off. "Wah! I don't really like horse rides…"
"You have to get used to it if you are staying here for a while." Judai point out, before he jump down, helping the shaking Johan down afterwards.
"Lord! The guest rooms has been arranged." The head maid, Tsukasa says, bowing to the guests that arrived after the lord.
"Show them to each their rooms." Judai whispers, before he turn away from them, walking into the castle before any of them had the chance to say anything to him. This would be the best way, if they thought he didn't care for them anymore, he could hope that they wouldn't be so sad when they had to leave without him.
"Hey, is it just me or does the slacker try to avoid us?" Manjoume complains, looking quite displeased over the situation. Judai had been the one that made him understand that friends was important, and here Judai was the one that went against everything he had taught!
"It seems like Judai, but he acts like the supreme king…" Asuka whispers, thinking over what the others had told her about the heartless king.
"I'm am going to talk with him." Ryoga orders, but one of the maids stop him. "What?"
"The lord told us to show you to your rooms sir, if you want to talk to him, you will have to wait for breakfast tomorrow." Tsukasa whispers. "Our lord is tired these days, the people expect a lot from him, and he has to use at lot of energy to fight the rebellious duel monsters."
"Hey, where is Johan?" Asuka asks, looking around. "And where did we loose Jordan?"
"I think I saw Jordan run crying after Judai." Manjoume point out. "Johan I don't really know."
"I am also starting to get a feeling you don't care." Asuka complains, as the maids started to show them to their rooms. "Will you be alright Mr. Yukimora?"
"Of course I will." He laughs, patting his daughter on the head. "All I wanted to know was if he was alive and kicking, it seems he is at least kicking."
"We'll get some sense into him at breakfast." Mimiko giggles, happy that her room was beside her fathers. "I wonder if the servants are nice, some of them look my age!"
"It could be that they aren't allowed to involve themselves with the guests." Manjoume point out, as he was lead to the room over the hall.
"We are under no such restriction, sir." Tsukasa giggles gently, smiling to Mimiko. "I have a little brother about your age, if you want to I can introduce you later, he has a lot of friends your age too."
"Ok!" Mimiko cheers, dancing into her room. She had been afraid that her big brother had become a mean ruling guy, but everyone in the castle seemed happy, except from her brother. Maybe it had been really wrong of them to come?
-------------------------
Judai gives a tired sigh, relieved to be out of that armour once more, he was going to visit Misawa and the school the day after, and then he thankfully didn't need it.
And he had to yell a lot at Misawa, which would teach him to send messages with him in without telling him.
He knew Misawa had been worried for him, since he missed his friends and family, but it could be dangerous for them there, and to part once more would be really painful!
"But I am a personal friend of the supreme king!" Someone yell from outside, Judai getting confused up.
"And I am a personal friend of his, but you don't see me try to sneak into his room at night time." The guard growls, not liking the thought of what the visitor had planed on doing to their young and vulnerable lord.
"I agree, Johan, just what are you trying to do in the middle of the night?" Judai complains, looking at the muttering Johan. "Didn't I tell you all to stay in your rooms?"
"I don't even know where my room is." Johan snickers, Judai giving a sweat drop. "I thought I would stay in yours for the night, then we could talk about things and stuff."
"Where do you want me to toss him my lord?" The guard asks, Judai just giving a deep sigh.
"Let him go, he can stay in my room tonight." Judai answers, the guard moping, while Johan made a victory dance into the giant bed room, looking a little amazed around. Even the bed was blown out of proportions. All six of them with Judai could have slept in that one. "And I do not wish to be disturbed again, and capture that guy there before he tells my father that Johan is spending the night in my room."
"As you wish." The guard answers, catching Jordan before he could crawl away. "What do you wish me to do with him Lord?"
"Make him help the girls in making the late dinner for them all, deliver the food to their rooms, they are surely hungry." Judai sighs. Waving as Jordan was pulled away. "And bring dinner here too, my guest will be hungry."
Judai close the door, before he take too himself all the bravery he needed to once more face Johan. The other boy jumping up and down in the bed.
"Johan, will you stop that? You are destroying my bed." Judai complains, blowing out the lights in the room, only the lights from the fireplace remaining, as Judai pulled of his t shirt, laying down under the blankets. "I am going to sleep now, they will come with dinner for you later."
"Hey, Judai?" Johan whispers, as Judai had turned away from him. "Aren't you happy to see us at all?"
"I would have been happier if you had remained in your own dimension." Judai whispers, trying to keep the tears in. He knew it was wrong! But he was so happy to hear Johan's voice again, to know that if he reached out, he would be able to touch him, to hold around him.
"That is cold, but I don't really believe you mean it." Johan whispers, seeing the weak shaking in Judai's shoulders. "I know about this really pathetic guy… who kind of lost his mind when you disappeared, he almost didn't finish school, and as the others started their own lives and tried to forget a little about you, this guy goes and does something incredibly stupid… he looks around the world for you, breaks contact with everyone, and could only think about finding you again."
"Johan…" Judai whispers, hiding his face under his hair as he turned around, laying his head against Johan's chest. "I'm so sorry… but… I belong here, I just didn't know how I could bare saying goodbye to all of you once more!"
"Judai." Johan says firmly, laying over the confused Judai, brushing the tears gently off his cheeks. "No matter what, even if we find a way to return, or if you have to stay here, I will stay with you! I don't have a family that will miss me, and my only will in life is to be with you, I can't explain it… but these three years, I have only been able to think of you…"
Judai looks blushing away, Johan giving a warm smile. He was still his Judai after all, even with those eyes he looked so adorable when he blushed for him.
"I…missed you a lot too." Judai mutters, Johan smiling relieved. He had been a little afraid that the feeling hadn't been mutual. He had never really thought over how Judai looked at him before after Judai had gone.
"So, is it true?" Johan stammers, Judai looking confused up at him.
"What?" Judai asks, Johan looked scared over something.
"I heard some of the kids in town talk about a Queen." "Johan stammers, he had been so afraid, that Judai had gotten over him, and found a wife.
"Ah, some of the people do call her that." Judai laughs, Johan looking confused at him, so it was true? "Yubel is my right hand, it is nothing more than that, but it seems people like to call her Queen, since she rules beside me."
"Wah! I am so relieved!" Johan cheers, before he clutch hard to the sighing Judai. "I am already used to sharing you with her anyway."
Judai gives a sigh. He could swear he had heard Yubel say that once too.
The lord was about to lay down to sleep again, when he noticed the fact that Johan were still lying over him, eying him with a great grin.
"And what are you planning?" Judai stammers, before Johan answered him easy, cupping his goal gently. "Ngh… I should have guessed so much …"
"I do hope that this area hasn't been used in my absence." Johan laughs gently, Judai moaning as Johan's light touches almost made him to crazy. "You have a lot of tension build up haven't you?"
"Of course I have!" Judai complains, giving a hiccup as Johan grabbed harder. "I don't really think about stuff like this normally you know… it is your fault!"
"Not cute at all." Johan snickers, licking gently up the shivering Judai's neck, getting rewarded with a lovely moan. "Now that is more like it."
"You are a real jerk in bed you know." Judai complains, giving a new moan as Johan started rocking their bodies gently but impatient together. "Nah! Stop the teasing already…"
Johan looks smirking down at the already feverish Judai. He were still as weak to pleasure as ever! He looked so adorable!
"I am still really mad at you, so this will be my way of punishing you." Johan laughs, Judai giving a confused cry as he was bound to the bed by his arms over his head. "I will continue punishing you until you say sorry for leaving me behind…"
"But… I had to!" Judai complains, quivering as Johan opened his pants, peeling them slowly off. The light from the fireplace illuminating the naked pale skin, Johan taking in the sight for a little, before he lean down, kissing gently up Judai's slender legs, before he lick down again, licking and sucking at the twitching toes. "Johan…"
"I knew you were sensitive Judai, but I never thought you would get so turned on by getting your toes licked." Johan laughs, before he lay over Judai, nibbling gently at his neck as he tried to find out what to do next. "Hm, I wonder if I can find more sensitive spots on you."
Judai close his eyes desperate, feeling Johan lick hungry up his chest, teasing the already hard nipples with no mercy, before he wandered farther, licking gently up Judai's armpit, Judai giving a confused shiver. "Even there Judai? My, you like it dirty don't you?"
Judai blush embarrassed, looking at Johan who gave his brattiest grin to him. Before he moved longer up, nibbling gently up Judai's neck, before start licking inside Judai's ear, opening his pants as he did, moving away a little to get himself undressed, before he lay down over Judai again, their hot bodies resting together.
"Johan, stop the teasing, I want it." Judai hiccups, feeling the hard shaft press against his own, not able to take his eyes away from it.
"Heh, I have grown for three years, I am bigger than you now." Johan point out proudly, before he release one of Judai's hands, leading it to his hard dick. "Now it is your turn to give me some pleasure."
"Not before you let my other hand loose too." Judai complains, using his one free hand to caress the shaft gently. The shivering Johan reaching over to let his other hand loose, Judai pushing him hard back on the bed as he was free. "Hah! You are gullible as ever!"
"That is cheating!" Johan whimpers, before he turns red, as Judai started licking at his hard dick. "But this kind of cheating is alright."
"I thought so." Judai laughs, brushing his hair behind his ears, before he started sucking merciless, Johan soon reduced to a moaning mess.
It wasn't fair! Why was Judai such a good sucker!? Johan gives a cry, falling panting back on the bed after he had released all he'd got. Judai looking a little confused down, as he tried to clean his face a little.
"Sorry, have no control." Johan laughs nervous, Judai didn't really look pleased. Haou Judai did have the gift of looking pissed over everything.
"Then you can lick it off too." Judai laughs, licking some of the come off his finger tips, while he enjoyed the last drops of what he had been able to swallow.
"Kinky, I like that." Johan laughs, licking Judai's face clean, while he moved a finger gently into the whimpering Judai. "But you have less control don't you? I become a mess quite easy, but you are something else, you are already starting to drool Judai."
"It isn't my fault that I am so sensitive!" Judai complains, looking embarrassed away as he started drooling more, Johan initiating a passionate kiss, adding a second finger as Judai seemed to be loosing more and more of his senses. "Johan… please… I want it."
"You have to say sorry first." Johan laughs, adding the third finger. "And promise me that you will never leave me again."
"I… can't just promise something like that!" Judai complains, before he gives a cry, Johan stretching him merciless. "I can't leave this world… and you will have to go back… to your own."
"If you can't leave this world, I will stay in it with you, I mean it!" Johan yell, forcing Judai into a possessive kiss. "I'll stay here and protect this world with you."
"Johan…" Judai whispers, feeling something unfamiliar run down from his eyes. "Um, I think I got something in my eyes…"
"Of course you did." Johan laughs, and kiss the tears gently away, before he lay down, keeping the confused Judai on his lap. "You can do this yourself this time, I bet it will be really sexy for me too watch."
Judai nods, moving a little forward, Johan supporting his hips as he sat slowly down.
"Nyah! Johan!" Judai cries, Johan blushing as he saw the pleasure filled look that Judai gave him. "Feel you Johan… feel you all the way to my hips…"
"You really enjoy this as much as me do you?" Johan pants, feeling Judai squeeze hard around him. "Either you have gotten tighter, or I have become bigger."
"You are… bigger, a lot bigger." Judai hiccups, before he gets help from Johan to move, rocking his body up and down, to far off to do anything else than move after a while. "Ah! Johan… it feels so good… Johan!"
Johan looks blushing at the crying Judai, damn so sexy. And he was only his, no one else's.
Judai stiffens, giving a cry as he came, Johan giving a cry as he too came, catching Judai as he fell into his embrace.
"Now… that wasn't so bad." Johan pants, just enjoying the weak shaking from the body so close to his own. "Hey, are you ok Judai?"
"A little put out." Judai whispers, letting Johan brush his hair gently. "It was a lot more intense than I remembered it."
"Of course it is, I have spared up!" Johan laughs, a smile coming unto Judai's lips. That stupid dolt, but he just couldn't help feeling happy with him. "So, we officially share bed room?"
"I do expect you keep up like this each night." Judai point out, leaning a little up over his chest, looking quite pleased down at his re discovered lover. "Hey Johan… I know I never said this too you, but… I really like you."
"I know, I think the same about you." Johan reassure, pulling the blankets over them, before they started to drift slowly into sleep, all past sadness seeming long gone.
----------------
"Did you get to talk with big brother?" Mimiko asks, as Johan had joined the other by the breakfast table, all of them feeling really small in that big hall.
"Yeah, I slept on the coach in his room tonight." Johan laughs, overlooking the death stare from Jordan, who came with dinner for them. "He is taking a bath, he will come afterwards."
"Is he mad at us for coming here?" Asuka whispers.
"He is just pretending, he is really happy to have us here, he just didn't want us to get in trouble by coming here again." Johan explains, everyone looking relieved. "He is the same old, just a little more easy to piss off."
"I should go and find out who is the lord of this castle, letting a 20 year old do as he pleases…" Ryoga sighs, the others sweat dropping, he still didn't get it did he? Judai was the lord of the castle, and the rest of that world. "And when we beat some sense into that guy, we can take Judai home with us."
"I don't think it will be so easy for you to get home." Judai sighs, all of them turning towards him as the lord came to join his party.
"Big brother!" Mimiko cheers, running to her brother, who gave her a hug, before he escorted her back to her seat.
"And why is that?" Manjoume asks, he had preferred Judai as a slacker actually.
"I got a call from Misawa, the portal broke down after sending all of you here, the professor if working on it from your side, and he is giving help to Misawa on our side, they will be able to make it work again, but it might take some while for us to get what we need for making the portal." Judai explains, before he sits down in his seat at the far end of the table, Tsukasa coming over with his usual drink. "You are free to stay here until then, or you can help Misawa in the lab, it is all up to you."
"What will the great Haou be doing?" Manjoume asks, entering a staring contest with Judai, who seemed unaffected by the gaze, and just drank his blood in peace.
"I will help Misawa find the stuff he needs to build the portal." Judai answers after a little, setting his cup down.
"I'm coming with you!" Johan cheers, getting tackled to the floor by Jordan. He wasn't letting that evil guy have any more bad influence on his adorable bocchan! "Wah! Save me!"
"Jordan, let him go." Judai orders, Jordan getting quickly away from Johan, looking nervous into the glowing yellow eyes. "I am old enough to protect myself, so please focus more on protecting Mimiko, that is your task now."
"As you wish, bocchan." Jordan whispers, Mimiko giving a gulp as she had suddenly inherited her brother's nanny.
"Judai, you have to stop this nonsense now." Ryoga whispers, getting up from his seat, walking over to Judai. "I know you think you are better off here, but you aren't, you belong home with your family, so stop playing and come home with us."
"So I am playing in your eyes." Judai laughs, taking a new sip of his drink, before his father pull the cup away from him.
"And what the hell are you drinking?" He yell, and smell at the thick red liquid, before he looks shocked down at his son. "Judai?"
"It is what it smells and looks like." Judai answers, Ryoga tossing the fine crystal cup hard into the wall, some of the servants coming to clean it up, none daring to come in between father and son. "I am not fit to be in your world anymore, and I am needed in this, at least here I can make a difference."
"But, we still need you!" Asuka yell, startling the quarrelling men. "We have all missed you so much Judai! And here we come all this way to find you… and you don't seem to be happy to see us at all! Did we really mean so little for you?!"
"So one of you finally understood it." Judai laughs, giving a cold look at Asuka. "I am the supreme king, I don't need any of you anymore."
Judai get up from his seat, tossing his cape around as he left the room, only the servants able to see the tears that ran down his cheeks over the un true words he had spoken to get his loved ones back to their own world.
"That damned arrogant bastard! I am going to kill him like O'Brian did, and after that, I will give our Judai a real beating!" Manjoume growls, about to run after, but Johan stopped him.
"Let him be." Johan sighs, before he continues on his food. "That is our Judai, Haou Judai and Yuki Judai is the same person after all."
"I can't believe I were worried for that heartless idiot!" Asuka hiccups, getting up from her seat. "I am going to go back to my room! And later I am going to get back to Misawa's lab! At least he still cares for his friends!"
"I do so agree." Manjoume complains, walking away with her, Johan giving a sigh, it seemed like Judai got it as he wanted, they would never want him back home with them now.
"I'm… going for a walk around the castle." Ryoga whispers, walking off too.
"Big brother is trying to make us want to leave him… right?" Mimiko asks, looking up at Tsukasa, who nodded sad. "I don't want to leave big brother, but he seems to be really happy here, it is only us being here that makes him sad."
"He will be ok, he is strong enough to take anything." Johan whispers, giving a tired sigh as he was done with his dinner. "I think he will take it better later if he remember them yelling and hating him instead of them crying and not wanting to leave him."
"No matter what, he will be sad!" Mimiko hiccups, Tsukasa laying her arms gently around her. "I don't want big brother to be sad!"
"You need not worry." Tsukasa whispers, giving a warm smile. "He is happy here in this world, that is why he uses all his happiness to make the people happy."
"Mimiko! Johan! Come on, or I will leave you behind!"
Both of them turns confused, looking confused at the smiling Judai, who had changed clothes, similar to his old Osiris red jacket, his hair was a little shorter, and it was brown again, the same with his eyes.
"Big brother!" Mimiko cheers, almost running him down. "Why do you look like this again?"
"I disguise myself if I am going out without wanting to be recognized." Judai laughs, lifting her up easy from the ground. "And since you two already has blown my cover I thought you would want to come with me to the school."
"What school?" Johan asks curious, thanking Tsukasa as she handed him a lunch box for the trip.
"Me and Misawa did a lot of work with making a school for the youths in this world, we have one done and working by Misawa's lab, and one is being built close to the town where you two ended." Judai explains, taking the bag that some of the servants came with.
"Are we walking?" Mimiko asks, as she got a bag too.
"Yeah, it isn't long from here, and we avoid getting attention drawn to us if we don't take the horses." Judai explains, smiling to Tsukasa. "Are you coming too? Tsu-chan?"
"I will stay here and tell your friends that you have left when they notice it." She laughs, bowing to them as they started walking.
"So, how long a walk do we have before us?" Johan asks.
"Just three hours or something." Judai laughs, and lift his sister unto his shoulders. "We can take a break at a river oasis in about an hour, it is really beautiful there, you can take a dip there if you want."
"Yay!" She cheers, just hugging happy unto her brother. She felt so happy! Even thou she couldn't stay there with her brother, she could at least spend some time with him now, and remember the happiness later.
----------------------
"Can we see the dragon too?" The young boys cheer, tugging at the laughing Johan's arm. Johan not able to resist at all, calling out his rainbow dragon once more, the boys running cheering under it as it took flight.
"You are really popular among the students." Misawa laughs, as his entire class had run off after the dragon. "I guess class is over for today then."
"And I who planned on giving a new lecture for them." Judai laughs, looking over at the cheering children, some of the girls and Mimiko joining them. "I'll take it tomorrow then."
"Are you going to stay for a while?" Misawa asks, Judai nodding. "And when will the others come after?"
"Tsukasa was going to show them the way, so I don't think it will be long before they come here." Judai laughs, holding up his Neos card, before he looks over at Johan. "Want to show the kids something really grand?"
"Super fusion ready?" Johan laughs, Judai pulling it out too. "You do the honour my lord."
"Super fusion! I fuse Rainbow dragon with Neos!" Judai yell, the kids and other inhabitants of the school all looking amazed up at the supreme rainbow god. "Come forth! Rainbow Neos!"
Silence covers the school, everyone looking in awe at the image of a god that stood before them.
"I think that just made me stand out a little more among the kids." Judai laughs, before they called Rainbow Neos back.
"Does anyone at the school know who you are?" Johan asks curious.
"Misawa knows, but other than that I am just a teacher that teaches duelling." Judai laughs, Johan not really able to imagine Judai as a teacher at all. "Misawa helps too, so what I don't teach he does."
"So, anything I can teach then?" Johan asks, Judai looking confused at him. "I like this place, and I see that you do too, even if I wanted to bring you back with me, this is where you look happy, so I will stay here and help you."
"Well, we have science and math with Misawa, I have duelling, Taniya have gym." Judai start, trying to think over it. "One of the local elders teaches history, I attend those classes… makes me feel really pathetic."
"Guess I'll have to attend them too." Johan laughs, looking down at the kids, that were having tag duel among themselves.
"How about you help out at the school for a week or something, then we can try to see if there is something you can do?" Judai laughs, Johan nodding pleased. Everything would be ok now, no matter what, he would stay with Judai.
"Oh, it seems the others are coming now too." Johan laughs, waving to the tired gang that came walking together with a eager Tsukasa, who waved back to Johan. "Where did you meet Tsukasa? She seems to be a really nice girl."
"She and her little brother was orphaned after a famine three years back, they barely lived trough it themselves, and I took them both in when I took over as the supreme king again, her brother is still weak, but she works all she can for me, she says it is to repay me for giving her brother medicines and both of them a home and food." Judai explains, Johan nodding understanding. "I didn't really want servants, but all I have are people that didn't have anywhere else to stay."
"You are such a kind guy." Johan laughs, and the others could even believe that Judai was a evil ruler, talk about knowing their friend. "Hm, I haven't seen Yubel, I thought she would hang around you like a love sick bat or something."
"I do."
Johan gives a shriek, jumping away as Yubel appeared beside him.
"Yubel is with me all the time." Judai laughs, patting the sighing duel monster on the shoulder. "We are a team! I wouldn't have been able to get it this far without Yubel!"
"As long as she don't try to possess me again, I can handle having her around all the time." Johan stammers, before he turns red. "Hey, hold on! Don't tell me…even yesterday?"
"You are really an entirely other person in bed Johan, to conquer my dear Judai with such brute force." She laughs, Johan almost blowing his head off with steam. Yubel has watched them? The humiliation! "Don't really think so much over it Johan, even before, I was there, I have been with you and Judai from the start you know?"
"So… no private life at all?" Johan asks, looking with puppy eyes at Judai, who shook his head. "But, why didn't you tell me? I feel ashamed!"
"Don't worry about Yubel, she won't say anything." Judai laughs gently, giving Johan a gentle kiss on the cheek, pulling away again as some of the teenage girls at the school walked giggling past them. "They on the other hand, might."
"I wonder what your father would do if he found out." Johan laughs, looking at the old man that ran after his daughter in panic, trying to get her away from the flying dragon.
"Hm, to find out that his son is both a blood drinker and a gay at the same day, he would be thrilled." Judai laughs, before they walked down to join the others. "Hey everyone! You took your sweet time in getting here."
"Judai?" Asuka whispers confused, he didn't look much different than he had been, the good old Judai. "Judai!"
Judai gives a confused cry, as Asuka hugged him hard. Not able to stop crying.
"Asuka…" He whispers, patting her gently on the back. "Don't worry, everything is going to be fine, Misawa said they had already found most of the stuff for the portal."
"I need an explanation." Manjoume complains, Judai looking confused at him. "How come you look like this now, and you looked like an evil bastard earlier."
"Have no idea what you are talking about." Judai laughs, everyone looking confused at him. Johan just sweet dropping, was he going to claim insanity? "I'm a teacher at this school, neat huh?"
"But what about the supreme king then?" Manjoume asks, trying to not hug unto his second great crush in life. Of course he had been in love with Asuka in the start, but that had just been a passing crush, he later understood, that he wanted Judai, the first one that had really understood that he was suffering.
"Have no idea what you are talking about." Judai laughs quick, as some of the students came over to them.
"Judai-sensei! Can you take a look at our decks?" One of the students ask, holding their decks forth to Judai, who checked them one after another. "Is it ok for the exam duels next week?"
"This one is well balanced, Shogo, but you have to put in a few more weak monsters, or you won't have a chance in getting the strong ones in at all." Judai explains, Shogo nodding eagerly, before he ran off to fix it again. "And you Hana, you seem to use a lot of magic card to strengthen weak monsters, it is a good strategy, since you won't need to sacrifice, but how about trying to get in one ace monster that will surprise the opponent, and a few trap cards like 'magic jammer' that will protect your power up cards from getting destroyed."
"Thank you Judai-sensei! I will go and do it right away!" She cheers, before she runs after Shogo, both of them talking eagerly about how to strengthen their decks.
"Now I have seen everything…" Manjoume stammers, Asuka as shocked as him. "The slacker has become a teacher, and he does it right!"
"Well, thanks for that one." Judai laughs, grinning to his friends, who both looked blushing away, that was the Judai both of them loved!
"Oh, you two can keep dreaming." Yubel laughs, appearing before the two plotting youths. Who both turned red, before jumping away from the laughing Yubel.
"Yubel, can you help me with over looking the exams later, please?" Judai whimpers, giving his cutest look to his right hand. "I can't possible look at all at a time."
"I'll take half and you take the other half then." Yubel answers, Judai giving a cheer, before he just looks confused at the screaming Yubel, which was tackled to the ground by Jordan and Manjoume. "What are the two of you doing?!"
"Be a good duel spirit and come into this card now." Manjoume laughs, waving the newly made Yubel card before her. "If you do that, we can take our Judai with us home."
"Is this some sort of bad joke?!" Yubel complains, doing her best to fight the men off herself.
"No! Get into the card now!" Manjoume growls, getting a high heel in his face, falling defeated to the floor, the students that watched them, cheering for the now furious Yubel. "Come on Judai! You want to come home too right, then help us get this broad down!" Manjoume growls, jumping in for a new attack, but it brought him right into the high heel again.
"Hey, are you ok Manjoume?" Judai asks worried, pinching him gently on the face. Manjoume twitching where he laid. "You ok Yubel?"
"Judai! They are mean to me!" Yubel cries, falling dramatically into Judai's embrace, pointing her tongue to Manjoume and Asuka as Judai wrapped his arms around her. She could accept Johan and Judai, since it was partly her fault it started anyway, but no one else was allowed to share her Judai! "I was so afraid Judai!"
"So, so Yubel, the mean men didn't mean it." Judai sighs, brushing her hair gently. Yubel could be really protective couldn't she? It was a wonder she hadn't tried getting writhe of any of the girls at school yet, since it seemed like all of them had a crush on him. "You all want to check out the lab? I think Misawa talked about trying to talk to the other side."
"Wah! Get down big brother!" Mimiko suddenly cries, Judai turning confused as the giant dragon came his way. "Big brother!"
Johan react quickly, pulling Judai to the ground with him, holding his arms around him as they just barely escaped the dragon's flight.
"Thanks for the quick thinking…" Judai whispers, feeling his nose inches from Johan's.
"Don't mention it, my dragon that almost ran you down so…" Johan whispers, as he feels the warm breath against his face, the ones around them already either squealing or frozen to ice.
"Johan…" Judai stammers, as Johan closed the gap between them, locking their lips gently together and for a moment, they forgot about all the others around them. Before Johan gave a cry, getting pulled up by a furious father. "Dad?"
"What the hell did you try to pull on my son?!" Ryoga yell, Johan trying to mutter out an answer, but to no avail, he had no idea what had gotten over him!
"Um… the mood was right?" Johan stammers, understanding that he would soon get a fist in his face, and that Manjoume, Jordan and Asuka would mug him in a corner later. "Um, I guess you won't believe the 'we are lovers' excuse?"
"Of course not!" Ryoga growls, about to give the boy that dared do something like that to his son a strong left hook, but Judai pulled Johan away just in time. "Judai?"
"Dad, be nice to Johan." Judai complains, laying his arms around the confused Johan. "He might become your son in law one day after all."
Complete silence, the girls at the school squealing, while Manjoume and Asuka were almost crying tears of blood. Their Judai couldn't be together with Johan! He was supposed to be together with them!
"Judai, Johan…" Ryoga whispers, pulling the two boys with him to a place they could be alone, overlooking Yubel that flew behind Judai. "I hope the two of you understand the consequences of your actions…"
"What actions?" Johan asks confused, looking over at Judai for answer, but Judai just shrugged. He had no idea how his father was thinking right now, he more imagined his father would hire a hitman when he found out about Johan.
"Young man." Ryoga growls, grabbing the confused Johan by the collar. "I have had a feeling that you have been eying my son, and now I find out that it is more between you, and then I take into view that you have spent the last night in the same room as him… if you aren't serious about my son, I will make you disappear from the face of the earth!"
"I am serious." Johan stammers, starting to get afraid for his life again.
"Good, then it is settled." Ryoga laughs, patting the confused Johan on the back. "We will settle all the formalities when we get back to our world."
"I think I lost you somewhere dad…" Judai stammers, Johan and Yubel nodding agreeing.
"It is clear isn't it Judai? Johan here just agreed to be your fiancé!" Ryoga laughs, Johan and Judai turning red. "You can have the wedding together with your new brother or sister's naming."
"Wedding?" Judai stammers, looking blushing at Johan, who also blushed, Yubel feeling a little pissed over the situation.
"Of course it will be a wedding!" Ryoga laughs, patting both of them on the head. "I will pay for it all, your mother will be so happy when we tell her Judai!"
"Hey dad, how about you go and tell those guys? I bet they will be so happy." Judai laughs dryly, taking a hold of Johan's hand, before he started to pull the mentally hurt Johan with him down from the roof. "I have a class to prepare for… see you later."
"Class? Judai?" Ryoga asks confused.
"Yeah, I am a teacher you know." Judai laughs, and pull Johan with him down from the roof, giving a deep sigh. "So, we are officially engaged, I never thought that would happen."
"Um… who will be the bride?" Johan stammers.
"You should be, I am a king." Judai complains.
"You are the one on bottom." Johan laughs, Judai giving a sigh. "So you will soon be known as Judai Anderson! Look forward to it!"
"Have fun in your own dream world." Judai laughs, before they enter the class room, the class waiting for their teacher to arrive. "Ok class, I have a new teacher with me today!"
"Nice to meet you everyone!" Johan cheers, trying to not feel afraid over the fact that Judai would try to murder him later. He seemed to be harmless enough when he tried to look his old self, but as the Haou he was damned scary! But he was also a lot sexier in the bed.
"His name is Johan Anderson, and he will be in a lot of your classes this week, before we decide if there is a special field he can teach in." Judai explains, Johan looking confused at him as he pulled out glasses from his pocket, putting them on as he started taking the attendance record. "Stop staring at me Johan."
"I didn't know you used glasses." Johan point out, trying to not think about just how much he liked Judai in glasses.
"I have weak reading eyes." Judai explains, looking up at the others that had also come to see how Judai's class was, they had imagined a gang of Judai copies either running around or sleeping. "Ok, today we will continue with building the exam deck, some of you are done, and can then use the time in practicing in the groups I have made for you, other of you still need a lot of work, and I will be here for the rest of the day to help you as good as I can. Johan will help too, and those two, Manjoume and Asuka, can also be of help, as they are both excellent duellists. Now start, remember, only your own dedication to your personal deck will help you win the grand prize and a part of the graduation duel."
The class cheers out, before they all get forth their decks, some trading cards, while some played with the decks they had made.
"I will place the cards you can take here if you still need some extra cards." Judai says, and set down a box full with cards, some of the students coming to get some. "Remember to choose well, some of these monsters will be your partners for life, just like my little winged Kuriboh here, or Johan's Ruby, or Manjoume's Oujama brothers."
Everyone in class nods eagerly, before Judai walk to sit down by his desk, Johan still looking at him.
"Do you always have to wear glasses? Or just as Yuki Judai?" Johan asks curious, sitting down on Judai's desk.
"Just as Yuki Judai, other vice I have a perfect sight." Judai laughs, handing Johan some papers. "Go around and help. That is the list over cards that are forbidden to have in the decks if anyone asks."
"Ok, I can do this." Johan laughs, trying to blend in with the class, as Asuka and the others walked down to Judai, who were correcting some tests the class had had a few days before.
"Judai, how could a slacker like you become a teacher?" Manjoume complains. "I bet Chronos-sensei would cry his eyes out if he saw you now."
"I bet he would too." Judai laughs, smiling to them before he turned his attention to a boy that came running down to them with his deck.
"Sensei, is this ok?" He whispers nervous, sneaking a look over at Manjoume, but he looked away again, that guy was a friend of their kind teacher, but he looked really scary! "I think I need some more monster cards…"
"No, you have the right trap and magic cards, they will allow you to survive even if you don't have monsters out." Judai laughs, handing the deck back to the happily blushing boy. "You can join one of the groups that is training, ok?"
"Ok!" He cheers, and run to one of the groups.
"Wow Judai, you are really taking this job serious…" Asuka whispers, feeling her heart beat faster as she looked at the now adult looking Judai. She had always had a crush on that idiot, but now that he looked so serious and mature… she felt twice as giddy!
"Of course I am, I am the one that helped make this school after all." Judai laughs. His father looking quite proudly at him, finally his stupid son was making something out of himself! But why did he have to do it in the wrong world? Wasn't Judai capable of doing anything right?! And the worst was that he had never finished school! He would have been one of the top duellists in their world then! "Asuka, can't you help Johan and go around? While Manjoume can watch over the ones that are duelling and give pointers."
"And why would I do that?" Manjoume complains, looking confused down at the begging Judai, before he looks annoyed away. "Ok, I will help then."
"I knew you would." Judai laughs, and continue on the tests, the others doing their best in helping him with the class, while his father watched in silence, he didn't want to admit it, but Judai looked really happy in that world. Like he had never seen him before, maybe this was the world that Judai belonged in?
--------------------------
"We can live at the school?" Asuka asks confused, as Misawa was showing them the way towards the dorms.
"Of course, I heard from the supreme king that you didn't like your stay there." Misawa laughs, opening the guest rooms for them. "This place is equipped with all you need, ask for the teachers or me if you need something."
"Where is Judai staying?" Ryoga asks, as they saw Judai walk away talking with some of the other teachers.
"He has his own room at the school, he is the owner after all." Misawa laughs, handing them the keys for each their room.
"And what about Johan?" Manjoume almost growls, watching Johan walk together with Judai and the two older teachers.
"It seems Judai is going to set him up as a teacher, so he will be staying here as a teacher for now." Misawa point out, Manjoume and Asuka growling. "But Johan is staying with Judai until we finish rebuilding one of the older rooms to a bedroom."
"I am going to kill that guy!" Manjoume growls out, as Jordan was about to join him in killing the poor Johan extremely. But Ryoga stopped them. "Are you going to let him stay in the same room as your son a second night?"
"Let the two young ones be." Ryoga laughs, patting his smiling daughter on the head. "Since Johan has said yes to take responsibility, it will be ok for me."
"Responsibility?" Asuka asks confused.
"They are going to get married when we get home!" Mimiko cheers, Misawa sweat dropping, Jordan falling crying down in a corner, while Asuka and Manjoume walked defeated into each their room. "I bet mommy us going to be so happy! Right daddy?"
"She will be overjoyed." Ryoga laughs, and walk into the room he was going to share with his daughter. "Where will we get food?"
"There is a night open cafeteria here, you can eat there when you are hungry." Misawa explains, smiling to them. "A lot of the students have different conditions, some of them needs dinner at night time, so we have the option open for all of them."
"What about Judai?" Ryoga asks. "Is he one of the ones that eat by night?"
"If you know Judai, you will know that he eats whenever he has the chance, the class had to tackle him when someone made hamburgers once, he almost ate everything." Misawa laughs, Mimiko giggling as she imagined the class smash her brother to the floor. "But if you are thinking about what he needs to drink, that is no problem, some of the servants at the castle feeds him gladly, and he don't need much if he drink regularly."
"How did it happen?" Ryoga whispers, as they sat down around the dinner table in the small guest room. "I know a lot happened to my son after he started at the duel academy, but no one has told me about just what happened to him yet… could you explain a little of it to me?"
"As his father I guess you deserve to know." Misawa sighs, looking at Mimiko, who sat down beside her father. "First it was the sacred beast accident, where Judai saved the world from destruction the first time, then he saved the school from being brainwashed by a society of light."
"So big brother saved the world?" Mimiko asks amazed, Misawa nodding.
"Then something else happened, first the school got sent to another dimension, most of the class ended up as duelling zombies." Misawa whispers, looking sad down. "We didn't know who caused it, until right before we was sent back, Johan used his duelling energy to send us back, and Judai then found out that Yubel had been the one causing it all, Judai meant it was his fault, and like a possessed he entered back into the other dimension to get Johan back."
"But Judai did it because he loves Johan, right?" Mimiko asks.
"I think it was before they started dating like that." Misawa laughs, patting her gently on the head. "But the others came with Judai, and because of Judai's carelessness, they seemed to die one by one, Sho, O'Brian and Jim was the only ones with him after the others had faded, and after Sho yelled at him, and O'Brian and Jim left him, Judai fell into darkness… feeling the despair over his actions, and he locked himself in darkness, becoming the supreme king."
"But the supreme king wasn't that evil was he?" Mimiko stammers.
"He was, he destroyed all duellists in this world once, destroying entire towns, Jim tried to duel him to get him back, but found the darkness was too great, Judai then won, and even thou loosing in this world then seemed like death, Judai didn't care. He then later fought O'Brian, but they got a draw, O'Brian fading together with the supreme king, leaving Judai as himself again, knowing what he had done…"Misawa whispers, both Mimiko and Ryoga going silent. To think that Judai could have done something like that. "Edo faded in the battle against Exodia, before Hell Kaiser got a heart attack in a battle with the Yubel possessed Johan."
"Yubel possessed Johan?" Ryoga asks confused.
"Yes, When Yubel got sent out into space with the Kaiba corp. capsule, Yubel got caught up in flames of light, and it made her crazy, thinking that her dear Judai had sent her away to suffer." Misawa whispers, Ryoga looking sad down, he had been the one to send Yubel off, even thou Judai hadn't wanted to. "Judai won over Johan and got him back to normal, before Judai went alone to fight Yubel, I don't really know much what happened then, since I remained here, but even thou Sho returned from watching that battle together with all the ones they had thought died, Judai didn't come back, before a week later and his soul had been fused with Yubel's, it seemed they made up before the battle ended."
"And after that, why does Judai need blood?" Ryoga asks.
"We thought the supreme king inside him was dead, but he wasn't, he was a part of Judai and together they became one complete, and his supreme king part is also Vampyric." Misawa explains. "It isn't dangerous at all for others, as long as he has enough blood, but if he has great blood loss, he can attack."
"But… why does big brother act different when he is here and when he is in the castle?" Mimiko asks curious.
"Because…" Misawa starts, before he gives a sigh. "Let us not think about it, I have to get home now…"
"See you tomorrow then." Ryoga whispers, him and Mimiko sitting in silence as Misawa left them. Could really Judai fit into their world again?
