Summary:
There's a difference between two demons. One is the harsh kind. The kind that people see as monsters. However, there's also the friendly kind. The friendly kind protects pure souls... Like me. Spiritshipping later, JuudaiXYohan ( Yubel!Johan ), OoC/AU, Juudai's POV.

Note(s): Please note that this is a Three-Story Project. Meaning that there's a sequel after this, and a sequel after the next one. This is the first story. I finished the whole story. However, I will not plan on posting the whole thing until I'm finished. If you wish to read the whole thing: I suggest you go to my deviantART, which is Johan-Lover74, and read it from there. I'll post the first story, however.

Also note that this is an AU story, so this won't relate to the setting of the anime. So, no Duel Academia, and no school.

Another note is that: I know "Yohan" doesn't exist. He is Yubel, possessing Johan. I also know that "Haou" IS Juudai. This'll make a lot more sense later in the story.

Last note is that: "Yohan" and "Johan" are pronounced the same. So, you will see a lot of "Yohan with a Y" and "Johan with a J" in the story.

So, I hope you enjoy the story. =3

Juudai's POV ( Age 7/11-Years-Ago )

Down the forest, into the darkness, there rests a cottage, and a nice fire. It was a nice cottage in the middle of the forest, and it was a two bedroom. I leaned against a window and sighed. When it gets sunny, it gives off a gleaming of light. It was beautiful, and it's like a light show thanks to the trees and the wind. The light breeze blew by, and it wasn't hot nor cold. It felt just right... However, there IS a problem with living in this cottage...

It gets lonely.

My parents are barly around now-a-days, because they're mostly out doing their duties as knights. They slay demons that possess certain people, and protect the spirits that are in danger.

However, there's two different demons.

Ones that protect spirits of heaven, and ones that destroy the spirits of heaven.

I sighed. My parents told me I'm a pure soul, but I don't understand what that means yet. The only thing I understand 'bout that is I'm a Spirit. Not a demon. So, does that mean I'm a target? Do I need protection?

I perked up when I heard russling in the bushes. I looked only to see a boy come out, 'bout my age, and stopped in front of me... In the window, or course.

"... Who are you?" He asked.

I stared at him. He had lovely cerulean hair, a lovely shade of blue. He was wearing rags. He was panting, so he was running. I looked at him in the eyes, which were an odd orange color.

"We need to hide!" He exclaimed, "Demons are coming!"

My eyes widen. I ran in, grabbed a pocket knife my parents gave me, and jumped out the window as we kneeled down to hide.

Just as expected, Demons came. They were wolves... Hard to avoid, but easy to fool.

"Hurry up, Carl! We're going to lose him"" Said one demon.

The other was not too far behind, "I know, idiot! We need to bring him back to the Prince!"

I rose an eyebrow. The Prince?

My eyes widen as I look at the boy before me.

He's... With the Prince?

The boy got down lower, pushing me down more as we snuck away.

"I'll explain later." He whispered, "Right now, we gotta get away from these guys."

I hesitated for a bit before nodding. He grabbed my hand, and started to pull me away from the cottage.

I looked back to the home before me... I'll miss the cottage. I'm sorry Mommy. I'm sorry Daddy. I'll find you, and I'll prove to you I AM strong.

The boy stopped once we were out of earshot... But not smell shot. We kept going.

"My name's Yubel, by the way, but oddly people call me 'Yohan' with a 'Y'." He chuckled.

I tilted my head, "So, what do you want me to call you?"

He looked at me, and grinned.

"Yohan."

I grinned too.

"Juudai."

... I could tell we're going to be friends... I think. At least I'm not lonely anymore.
