Special thanks to Elle von Werner for review! I think I kept you guys in the dark long enough! In this chapter, I will be telling you the name of the mysterious man! Here's chapter 10!
"So you guys decided to follow me" the man said.
"We're taking back that brat and going to my world" Prince Yuuri said.
"It's too bad that not going to happen" the man said.
"What are you talking about?" Conrad asked.
"You see all these doors here" the man said and they looked around. There were different design, shape, size, colour doors "Each of them led to a different world. If you pick the wrong door, you'll be stuck there forever"
"You're sick and cruel" Prince Yuuri said.
"I know" the man said before he vanished into thin air.
~Sleeping Yuuri~
"Lord Ken" Dontal called as he knocked on the door of the young lord's room. Ken opened the door and sighed inwardly when he saw him.
"What is it this time?" Ken asked, trying to hide his annoyance.
"Prince Yuuri will be returning soon. I have been asked to escort you to the garden where you will meet with Prince Yuuri" Dontal said and Ken smiled.
"Let's get going then" Ken said and Dontal led the way 'Finally I get to meet him, I'm sorry Yuuri but I have to do this'
"Dontal, do you know why Prince Yuuri was unavailable this morning?" Ken asked.
"Yes, apparently Prince Wolfram, which is Prince Yuuri's fiancé, was missing since yesterday" Dontal said.
"Missing?" Ken's eyes widen when he heard those words.
"Yes, King Sohma, Queen Miko and Prince Yuuri went over to Queen Cecilie's castle to see how she's doing" Dontal said "Rumours said that Prince Wolfram was kidnapped and killed"
"Killed? That's horrible" Ken said.
"But that's just a rumour" Dontal said "Some said he ran off with a girl. I don't think any are true though. Knowing Prince Wolfram, he wouldn't die or be captured so easily"
"Why would you say that?" Ken asked.
"Prince Wolfram has pretty good swordsmanship. Not the best but also not the worst" Dontal said "Many said that he's fit enough to become a soldier but his mother is of course not going to let that happen"
"Is Prince Wolfram really that good?" Ken asked.
"Of course he is" Dontal said "Some rumours said that he sneaked away for two years straight to practice his swordsmanship with many mentors. Of course that was before his lock down"
"Lock down?" Ken questioned.
"Here we are Lord Ken, I bid you good bye" Dontal said and left.
Ken looked around to see if anyone was around. When the coast was clear, he pulled out the bottle and opened the lid. He carefully dripped one drop of the mysterious liquid into Yuuri's drink. He watched it turn purple and back to its original colour. Ken let out a relieved sigh as he sat down and waited for Yuuri to come.

"I'm so tired" Yuuri complained.
"That wasn't so bad" Conrad said.
"That's because you used to waking up earlier in the morning" Yuuri complained.
"We had to wake up that early to get to go to Queen Cecilie's castle" Conrad said.
"When you said that kingdoms were next to each other, you didn't say that the two kingdoms were huge and we had to go on a two hour trip to get there" Yuuri complained.
"It must have slipped my mind" Conrad said.
"Can I go rest?" Yuuri asked.
"No, Lord Ken has requested to see you" Conrad informed him.
"Can't we just tell him I'm tired and need my rest?" Yuuri asked.
"No, just leave early. It's rude not to show up" Conrad said.
"Fine" Yuuri grumbled as they continued to head towards the garden.
~Sleeping Yuuri~
'I wonder when is he going to be here?' Ken thought to himself. It has been a few minutes and Ken started to panic 'Everything is going to go as planned. Just calm down'
After a few more minutes, Yuuri and Conrad came into sight. Ken smiled when he saw Yuuri but soon turned to a frown 'Should I be doing this? I guess there's no turning back now'
"Good afternoon Lord Ken" Conrad greeted.
"Hi Ken" Yuuri said and sat down.
"Where were you this morning? You sound tired" Ken said.
"I went to visit Queen Cecilie and I am a bit tired" Yuuri said.
"I see" Ken said as he eagerly watches Yuuri reaching for his cup.
"Do you have anything in mind to do today?" Yuuri asked and he takes a sip from his tea. First, he felt dizzy and dropped his cup. Then darkness came over him and fell back. Conrad, being right behind him, caught Yuuri before he hit the ground.
"Yuuri, Yuuri" Conrad called out. He was trying to get a response from the boy but nothing happened.
"Maybe he's sleeping. You should bring him to his room" Ken suggested 'I'm sorry. It seems wrong now. I'll apologizes as soon as he wakes up'
Conrad, carrying Yuuri, made his way to Yuuri's room with Ken no far behind and placed him in bed. There was gush of wind from nowhere and a man with a black cloak appeared.
"Who are you?" Conrad demanded "Are you responsible for what happened to him?"
"Who I am is not important but I am partly responsible for his state now" the man said.
"Partly? Then who is responsible as well?" Conrad asked.
"Why don't you try asking the person behind you?" the man said and Conrad turned around to face Ken. Ken froze on the spot, fear and guilty flooded over him.
"Ken, is what this man saying true?" Conrad asked but Ken was too afraid to answer.
"Of course it is" the man said and Conrad turn to face the man but his eyes widen with he saw the man's face.
"Saralegui" Conrad said in disbelief.
"I see you still recognize me Conrad, it's been a while hasn't it?" Saralegui said with Yuuri in his arms.
"What are you doing with Yuuri?" Conrad asked in a dangerous tone of voice.
"I'm taking what's mine of course" Saralegui said.
"He's not yours" Conrad said.
"I forgot. Did I tell you that I switched your prince with him?" Saralegui asked slyly and Conrad was shocked.
"I don't really care if you believe me or not" Saralegui said "Also, I'm the one who kidnapped Prince Wolfram"
"What? Why would you kidnap him?" Conrad asked.
"I might as well tell you the truth if you're not going to see him anymore" Saralegui said "When Prince Yuuri was a baby, my father cursed him. But when he died, the curse wore off"
"Then why are you here now?" Conrad asked.
"Let me finish!" Saralegui said "As I was saying, my father was killed by assassins sent by Prince Yuuri's parents. He died trying to save me. I swore I would take revenge so I learned everything that I could. Unfortunately, I still wasn't experienced enough to kill anyone and the best I could do was to put someone in deep sleep"
"Then why did you drag the other Yuuri into this?" Conrad asked.
"Right about that. I have been spying on both Prince Wolfram and Prince Yuuri. Ken over there wants Prince Yuuri's love to become freed from his father. After seeing Prince Yuuri's attitude, I knew that it wasn't going to work. That's when I found this Yuuri, I switched their places so that Ken would have his wish fulfilled for now"
"What are you planning to do with the people you captured and Prince Yuuri?" Conrad asked, trying to get as much information as he can.
"I did promise to return Wolfram von Bielefeld, he shouldn't pose a problem but Prince Wolfram on the other hand might. I could return him if you like but he may not be the same person that he was. This Yuuri here, let's just say he's never going to wake up while I'll captured Prince Yuuri and torture him to death" Saralegui said evilly.
"Why is Yuuri never going to wake up?" Conrad asked.
"You see, I gave Ken a poison that makes the victim fall into deep sleep. And before sun completely sets, he has to receive a true love kiss to awake" Saralegui said "Also, if the victim is in deep sleep, they will come face to face with their worst fear"
"Do you know who his true love is and his is worst fear?" Conrad asked.
"Of course. I know everything after all" Saralegui said confidently "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes, I was thinking of who this person could possibly be" Conrad said.
"His true love is Wolfram von Bielefeld. Prince Wolfram looks exactly like him and since they met before I had to kidnapped them both" Saralegui said.
"Yuuri and Prince Wolfram met before? When was that?" Conrad asked.
"Oh right, Yuuri didn't tell you because Prince Wolfram kissed him the last time they met and he's still shy about it" Saralegui said "I knew from then, Prince Wolfram has fallen in love with Yuuri but I wasn't so sure if Yuuri fell for him"
"So what are you going to do now?" Conrad asked.
"Take Yuuri with me to my castle and wait till sunset. Then release both Wolfram's and kidnap Prince Yuuri. Also, this is where I say Good bye" Saralegui said and a portal appeared behind him. He walked into the portal and thought 'Mission complete. Who knew it would be this easy?'

"There are so many doors" Conrad said.
"How do we know which one is which?" Murata said.
"Shut up or help" Prince Yuuri hissed.
"Are you doing anything?" Murata asked.
"Yes, but I can't concentrate with you two yapping!" Prince Yuuri complained.
"Lord Weller" Murata said quietly "At first I thought that Yuuri and Shibuya didn't have anything in common but they both don't think before acting"
Prince Yuuri's pendant started glowing and he toke it out to look at. It was glowing on the inside which made the outside look like it had a soft aura around it.
"Here" Prince Yuuri said and floated over to a door.
"What are you doing?" Murata asked.
"I'm going opening the door of course" Prince Yuuri said "What else can I do?"
"Stay here and make sure you got the right one" Murata said.
"I rather test my luck" Prince Yuuri said and his eyes soften "I'm sure this one is it"
"I trust Yuuri on this one" Conrad said.
"Thanks Conrad" Prince Yuuri said.
"I'll be in it too since I'll be left alone if I stay" Murata said and Prince Yuuri opened the door. There was a bright, binding light as they enter the unknown world.
CLIFFHANGER! I'm that evil! Now you have to wait to see what happens to them next! Should I be nice and let them go to Prince Yuuri's world or end up in some other place? I'll think about it! But before I close off, PLEASE REVIEW THE STORY!
