Prologue

'Conrad, Günter, Gwendal and Wolfram.

I will be leaving for a while. Something has happened on Earth. Please don't worry. The Great One told me late yesterday night and I left whilst everyone was sleeping. I asked him not to tell Murata anything, please don't bother him about this. Ill be back soon.' -

Signed Yuuri Shibuya.

In the midst of the night Yuuri Shibuya was preparing to leave Shin Makoku. Not being sure of how Shin Makoku time worked, he was still sure that it was well after anyone in the castle would be awake. He wasn't meaning to leave so early, but something had come up that he simply couldn't ignore. The Great One had told him something he didn't, and probably never wanted to hear.

Whilst filling the Maou's bath he removed the majority of his clothes, only leaving on a thin white shirt and pulling on a pair of denim shorts. He stuffed his black uniform into a plastic box and pulled a plastic bag over it.

"I'll be back." Yuuri said, on the verge of tears. He only hoped what he had been told was not true, that everything was just as he had left it before. He jumped into the bath, wiping a stray tear from his now slightly pink cheek.

He was Yuuri Shibuya, 27th Maou of Shin Makoku, but he was also a human being.

He pulled the plug to clear away any proof of him ever having left and fell into his world, Earth, leaving his mazoku family with the best explanation he could, not having any idea of when he would return.

A/N

I know it is short, but it's just the prologue. The following chapters will be much longer.

Please review, it's encouraging.
