Summary: The story of Wakfu goes that Yugo The Eliatrope is reborn and given to Alibert. In time Yugo goes on an incredible journey to find his family and learn of his mysterious destiny. We all know this. But… what if that wasn't how the story went? What if Yugo and his dragon brother Adamai were reborn far earlier? Before the birth of their friends. Before Noximilian Colxen found The Eliacube. Before Ogrest's Chaos began. What if Yugo was raised alongside Goultard. Living in secret for thousands years while keeping a youthful appearance Yugo and Adamai who have reunited have seen and done almost everything. Made friends and enemies. Lost friends and loved ones. Now after so long both have met their match… against The Siblings. The Brotherhood Of The Forgotten led by the mysterious Oropo. After a grueling and long battle. Yugo and Adamai are defeated. Our hero is left for dead as his dragon brother is taken away. However instead of dying our hero is found by none other than Alibert. With little to no memory of his past Yugo is nursed back to health and is taken in by the former bounty hunter. Eventually a few years later Yugo suddenly remembers bits of his past and sets out to find out who he is. While not alone of course. Because a chance encounter with a Iop who's the Guardian of a Shushu, a greedy yet wise Enutrof, a kind yet sheltered Sadida princess and her Cra bodyguard/best friend. Change Yugo's life forever. Guess no matter how much destiny is altered it still leads down the same path.

Warning: Spoilers for season 3 among other things.

AN: Man, there are not whole lot of Wakfu stories on this site. It's so sad because Wakfu is such an amazing series. I bet a lot of writers could make some amazing stuff if they put their mind to it. Unfortunately I am not such a good writer. Though I hope you all enjoy this story. Basically this is an AU where Yugo and Adamai are reborn way earlier in the series. Heck, even before guys like Master Joris, Ogrest and Nox were even born. Grougaloragran eventually found someone to take care of Yugo while he took care of Adamai. Just like in the series. That someone being Cabotine, the mother of Goultard. This story will mainly follow Yugo trying to remember his life before losing his memory. While trying to stick close to the series as possible. There will be flashbacks of Yugo's life and some of his past adventures. For pairings I'm gonna have Dally and Eva of course. I really want to do Yugo and Amalia because it's pretty much my favorite next to Percedal and Evangelyne. But that's really up to all of you. Yugo is this story will look like that time in the temporal trap. If not younger. But he's pretty old. Pretty much around the same age of Goultard. So he's free game. You want to him to be paired up someone you want just tell me. Until then expect a few moments here there. Well, that's enough of that. Time for the story. ON WITH THE STORY! Enjoy.

Chapter 1: Stranger From Nowhere

The World of Twelve. A world filled with magic and wonder. Wakfu, a mystic energy in all living things. From all people to the simple plant. This world is inhabited by many races and creatures. Even those who are foul and evil. Demons and other terrible things.

There is one race however that seemingly disappeared.

The Eliatropes. A powerful and old race who in myth are the first ones to inhabit this world. Before the other races and gods themselves. Eliatropes were a curious race who in myth are born from an egg. A Dofus. That wasn't strange enough because when hatched not only was an Eliatrope born but a dragon as well.

Before any other race was advanced enough. The Eliatropes and their dragon brethren roamed the world. Their power in the arts of magic were unmatched. Their technology was also limitless.

All that changed however when one day The Eliatropes and their dragon brethren mysteriously disappeared. All they left were bits of their advanced technology and a single Dofus.

In that Dofus was Yugo and his dragon brother Adamai.

This is Yugo's story.

Somewhere Near Emelka

It was night and the stars were out. The moon was full. One would say it was a beautiful and peaceful night. However if they looked around in this large clearing they would say quite the opposite. On this clearing a large battle had taken place.

The clearing and the landscape were scarred. Craters both small and large were scattered around. Trees looked to have been thrown or pushed down. If one could look closely at the ground. Blood could be seen.

Heavy panting could be heard as a figure was on his knees holding their right shoulder. Blood could be see seeping through their hand as they put pressure on the wound.

This figure was fairly tall. Who looked to be a man. He wore a rather long and strange hat. Which was blue with yellow stitches on what appeared to be ears and had a long tail-like end with sandy yellow fur. His other clothing were a large blue poncho that covered his orange sleeveless shirt. Simple dark blue pants and a pair of sandal like shoes.

He wore a blue face mask that covered the bottom half of his face. The only thing not covered were his eyes. Which were a dark brown. Bits of his hair could also be seen if you looked closely. His hair was a sandy blond. Almost matching the fur at the end of his hat.

His cloths had cuts and looked messy. The injury on his shoulder wasn't the only one he had. Because he had a fair number of bloody cuts and bruises here and there.

"You and Adamai have fought valiantly. The both of you fighting for nearly hours. Giving it your all. But you have lost… Yugo."

Yugo looked up and glared at the man talking. If you could call him a man. He was floating a bit above the ground. He was covered in a large blue cloth that covered his whole body. Where his head was located a cloth like mask that looked eerily like an owl with mechanical eyes were there instead.

Next to him was a beautiful woman with pale green skin that had strange yet angelic wings. Her clothing was a black dress that left little to the imagination. She had long black hair and had two long horns and pointy ears.

Behind them were multiple figures both big and small hiding in the shadows.

Laying on the ground in a small crater in front of the man and woman was a tall humanoid. Who was bloody and bruised. It looked to be male. He was pale and had a blue underbelly, lips and eyes. Two long horns could be seen on top of his head and a small one was on his forehead. He wore no clothes which was strange.

What was more strange is that this creature had two long wings like the woman. However these didn't have feathers. No, they looked to be like dragon wings.

This was Adamai. Yugo's brother.

He was unconscious and his breathing was labored. It looked lucky that he was alive at all.

"Damn… you!" Yugo growled out as he slowly got up.

The woman and the other shadowy figures grew tense. All of them looked ready to fight in case of attack. The man however stared at Yugo while shaking his head lightly.

"Oh my. How unbecoming of a hero. I would apologize for this. But I'm afraid I would be lying."

The owl man floated over to Adamai and sighed.

"Though I must say I wished no harm onto Adamai. It pains me to see him like this. Such a brave and noble soul. Why he is so loyal to you is beyond me."

Suddenly four sphere like machines appeared from the darkness. They headed straight to Adamai and somehow levitated him off the ground. They then floated him at a safe distance. Yugo wanted to attack and stop them but couldn't. He flinched in pain from his injury. That last attack he took was very powerful. It's amazing he still had his arm at all.

"Please. The last thing I want to do is cause him more harm. Unlike you I actually care for him. After we're done he will be taken good care of. I promise. You on the other hand will not be given the same treatment."

"WHAT'S YOUR GAME?!" Yugo yelled out in anger as he slowly limped towards the man. "WHO ARE YOU?!"

The woman looked ready to attack Yugo but stopped when the man floated in front of her. Stopping her. He shook his head. Causing her to sigh and nod. The man turned back to Yugo who was getting closer.

"You appear out of nowhere! Attack me and my brother! Without any just cause! Who are people! What do you-"

Before Yugo could finish the owl man shot his hand out from underneath his cloak and started to choke him! Yugo couldn't do a thing because he was too injured and weak from the battle.

Gasping for air Yugo tried to free himself by using his magic and trying to pry off his attacker's hand off. But couldn't.

"It'd be so easy to kill you. The seemingly immortal wanderer. The one who helped stopped the Butcher of Brakmar hundreds of years ago. Who saved thousands through the chaos of Ogrest. Even survived a fight with the beast himself. Brother of Goultard The Barbarian. The secret defender of all the kingdoms. Yugo… The Eliatrope."

Yugo's eyes widened in shock. How could he have known all this? Who was this man?! Why was he doing this?!

"Since you won't be much of threat after this. I guess it wouldn't hurt to tell you. My name is Oropo, and this is my family. The Siblings. The Brotherhood of The Forgotten. Forgotten by our parents, our creators, the gods. Why we're doing this you may ask? It's because the gods have forsaken us! In time we will destroy the old gods and replace them. Become better than them! And you Yugo are perhaps the biggest threat of stopping us."

Oropo dropped Yugo to the ground. Breathing heavily Yugo rubbed his throat and glared up at his attacker.

"Unfortunately our goal are still years away from coming to fruition. But rest assured that our goal will be reached Yugo. The only problem is you and few others who are powerful enough to stop us. Don't worry though… I'm not going to kill you. No, that's the last thing I want. I'm going to take away your precious memories. From the start of your miserable life to your greatest moments and all your failures."

Three more mechanical spheres showed up and surrounded Yugo. But before he could anything the spheres shot him with some kind of electric attacks that lifted him up in the air. All the while screaming in agony!

Most of the Siblings present looked away or had hardened expressions. Two or three were smiling seeing their enemy in agony.

Eventually the attack stopped and Yugo could barely move. He was still conscious, just barely. It was amazing he had enough energy to look up at Oropo in anger.

"Still with us? Good… because I want to see the look in your eyes as I do this."

Oropo slowly lifted up his mask and cloak. Revealing himself to Yugo. What he saw shocked him to his very core. Oropo was an Eliatrope. He saw his cranial wings made of pure wakfu. But what was more shocking is how he looked. He looked eerily like… him.

He looked almost exactly like Yugo!

"You really didn't believe you were the last Eliatrope did you? I won't go into detail about how or why. Because it won't matter. All you need to know is that when the time comes… you will pay."

With a wicked smile Oropo grabbed Yugo's head with one arm. His hand covering his face. Soon bright blue energy manifested through Oropo's palm. Yugo started to scream again as he felt the energy build up. Then in a blinding blue light that could be seen for miles. Yugo stopped screaming and went limp.

Suddenly Oropo flinched and gasped in pain as he dropped the unconscious Yugo to the ground. Immediately the winged lady and a Xelor with a strange ice helmet came to Oropo's side.

"My love are you alright?" The woman asked concerned.

Oropo didn't say a word. He smiled and appreciated her concern. He then pulled his cloak and mask over. Hiding his face and body. His attention went back to Yugo. Who hasn't moved at all. He was breathing that's for sure.

"Did it work?" The Xelor asked as he eyed Yugo suspiciously.

"Do you doubt our leader Count Harebourg?!" The woman asked aggressively.

Count Harebourg sent the woman a mild glare. Fortunately before anymore could be said. Oropo spoke.

"Easy my Lady Echo. It's a perfect and reasonable question. Harebourg, I assure you the spell worked. If not then we wouldn't be having this conversation." Oropo stated as he got a small bow from Harebourg. "Without his knowledge of his life and experiences. Along with his fighting prowess. Yugo is nothing but a minor annoyance."

"But it's possible for him to recover his memories right?" Count Harebourg asked receiving a dirty look from some of the Siblings. Doubting their leader didn't seem like a popular idea. "What's stopping from him finding out who we are and trying to stop us? From trying to rescue his brother?"

"I'm counting on it." Oropo simply stated getting surprised and confused looks from everyone. He turned around to face his comrades. "Trust me my friends. All of this going according to plan. Our ranks maybe small but given time I promise you we will find more to join our cause."

It didn't take much for all of them to have their fears and doubts quelled. Though Lady Echo and Count Harebourg still looked troubled. With a small sigh Lady Echo walked over to the still unconscious and floating Adamai. Gently caressing his cheek.

"Don't worry brother Adamai… you will be taken well care of."

Count Harebourg walked over to Yugo. Standing over him felt right to the Count. It was all too tempting not try and finish him off. But he would follow Oropo's orders. For now.

"What do we do with him?"

Oropo looked down at their beaten enemy. Taking him down took far longer than expected. Many of them had injuries of their own.

"Leave him… he is of little concern to us. Come, let us return home."

With that The Siblings began to leave. Those who were injured limped along or got help from one another. Lady Echo walked along with the spheres that were holding up Adamai. She stopped briefly to looked around and saw Oropo wasn't with them.

Turning around she saw Oropo floating over Yugo.

"You deserve far worse than this. The so called god king. The one who created The Eliatrope race. You who created me… and forsaken me. It's because of you I long for your life. My… life." Oropo softy said with venom in his voice. "You may recover your memories. You may search for me, for my family. But when you finally do… I will finally take what's rightfully mine."

Oropo then left after that. Joining Lady Echo's side. Both left and disappeared into the shadows. Leaving Yugo alone. Beaten and unconscious in that clearing.

An hour had passed and Yugo had yet to wake up. It was getting colder. His wounds still fresh and he was still bleeding. Making more likely our hero would die to not only the elements but his injuries too. Thankfully as if the gods or fate were watching. A light could be seen in the distance.

"I'm telling you Alibert this is a bad idea."

"Nonsense Jason. Everyone saw that blue light. We have to make sure it's nothing before someone starts a panic."

The light was revealed to be a fire torch a man was holding as another man walked by his side. The largest of the two looked pretty seasoned and was carrying the torch. The man was heavy built and had a large brown mustache. His clothes were normal, the only thing distinctive he wore was a large chef's hat. That almost looked like an Eliatrope's hat.

That wasn't all he had with him. In his other hand the man was holding a strange weapon. A shovel, an Enutrof shovel.

The other man wore simple clothes and looked a bit nervous.

"Calm down Jason. You can head back. I'm fine."

"No can do Alibert. No one should wander out here alone at this hour. Not even a former bounty hunter." Jason said giving out a small smile. "Besides, my daughter would give me an earful if I didn't help you out. After all you've done for us."

Alibert looked at Jason surprised. But smiled as he shook his lightly.

"Suit yourself. Just don't cry around if it's bandits or some monster."

Some time passed and both men have walked a good distance. That is until Alibert finally noticed a large something in the middle of the clearing.

"Jason! Over there!"

The large Enutrof broke into a run and headed straight to the large thing. Jason was not too far behind. When they reached their destination both were shocked to find Yugo. Who still had yet to awaken.

"By Enutrof, Jason take the torch and my shovel! This lad needs help!"

Alibert quickly handed his shovel and torch to Jason. Who was still reeling from this shocking discovery. Alibert acted quickly and picked up Yugo and rushed into the direction where Emelka was.

"Wait up Alibert!"

Jason ran after his friend. Soon he and Alibert were gone.

Suddenly a dark figure appeared out of the shadows from under some nearby trees. This figure was a Xelor but not the one with Oropo. No, this one had a different built and wore a straw hat. His mask was different too. This one actually looked like a Xelor mask.

"So our paths cross again Yugo The Eliatrope. When my Noxins reported that huge burst of Wakfu I should have known you be involved. All this time and you haven't age a day. My such Wakfu you have my old friend. It's so tempting not try and take it. Fortunately for you I'm after bigger game. And I do remember our past friendship."

The Xelor suddenly blinked out of existence and appeared in the middle of the clearing. Looking up at the night sky and stars. His mechanical blue eyes shining brightly.

"I still remember that tale you used to tell my children. How dragons still exist. I thought you were just entertaining them but you are right. Dragons still do exist." The Xelor chuckled out darkly. "And I am after one of them. I'm so close to finding this one. All I know is it's name. Such a strange and powerful name… Grougaloragran."

Just like that The Xelor blinked out once more and disappeared.

The Next Morning

It was a beautiful morning in the village of Emelka. The village was more bustling than usual. Because of what happened last night. How the mayor and Jason brought in a mysterious and injured stranger.

That was the talk of the village.

Since there wasn't really a proper healer or Eniripsa in the village. It was up to Alibert and Jason's daughter Mia. A young woman who knew a bit about healing. But not a whole lot.

Currently Alibert and Mia were taking care of Yugo in a guest room in Alibert's home. They bandaged and cleaned Yugo's wounds the best they could. Now it was all up to him.

Alibert had taken off Yugo's bloodied and ripped clothes. Leaving only his hat and underwear. He was covered up by a blanket thankfully.

Mia was siting next to Yugo as he slept peacefully on the guest bed. His injuries were all taken care of. His wounded shoulder all bandaged up. Mia had a small wet rag and gently washed Yugo's face.

"How is he Mia?" Alibert asked as he walked in carrying some more healing supplies. "I've seen my fair share of injuries and I got to say that young lad has been through a lot."

Mia, was a beautiful young woman. She had dark brown hair and hid it under her hooded cloak. She had steel colored eyes and fair skin. It was surprising she wasn't married or with someone yet. Thought maybe it was because of her father.

"I don't know Alibert. He doesn't have a fever or anything. His wounds are all taken care of so he should be fine." Mia said as he looked down at Yugo with a bit of concern. "But he's lost a lot of blood. Poor guy… to be left for dead like that. Who could do such a thing?"

Alibert had a hard expression on his face as he looked down at Yugo. From what he could tell those injuries came from a nasty fight. One that even he would try to avoid in his younger days. It made the old former bounty hunter wonder.

Who was this young stranger? And who was he fighting with up there last night?

As Alibert thought that over. Mia kept on lightly washing Yugo's face. Afterwards she made sure he was comfortable and that none of his injuries gotten worse. She stopped though when she got a good look at his face.

Even she had to admit he was very handsome.

A small blush appeared on Mia's face as she looked closer at Yugo's features. Then without warning Yugo's eyes began to slowly open. When they finally did both Yugo and Mia just stared at each other. Both blinking before doing what felt natural.

Freaking out in shock.

"AHHHH!" Both Yugo and Mia exclaimed in shock.

Mia stumbled back and fell onto her butt. Yugo tried to get up and back up but stopped as he felt immense pain. He hissed in pain as he held his shoulder. Then like a confused and wounded animal he looked around at his surroundings. Clearly afraid.

"Hey easy there lad. You're safe. We're not going to hurt you."

Yugo looked and saw Alibert raise his hands up in the air. Trying to look the least intimidating as possible.

"Me and my friend found you near death in a clearing a few miles from here. We brought you here to my home and treated you." Alibert explained as he walked over slowly to Mia and helped her up. "My name is Alibert. I'm the mayor of this fine village you're in. This is my friend's daughter Mia. She helped me treat your wounds."

Mia nervously waved her hand at Yugo. Who still looked very confused.

"If you don't mind me asking. What happened to you last night?" Alibert asked curious about what happened to Yugo. "When we found you I suspect if was after a big fight. Do you have any idea what happened?"

Our hero sat there on the bed still with a confused expression. Like he didn't know what was going at all. He tried to remember what happened. But strangely he couldn't. Everything was just a big blur.

"I… I don't remember."

That caught both Mia and Alibert off guard. They weren't expecting that.

"Well, can you tell us your name?" Mia asked kindly giving out a caring smile. "You do remember your name, right?"

Yugo looked up at Mia's kind face. He didn't know why but it reminded him of something. Something he couldn't put his finger on. Suddenly out of nowhere Yugo began to remember something. Nothing about last night but he definitely remembered something.

What he remembered was a beautiful woman, she was a Iop and had a caring smile just like Mia. Yet this smile was different. More of a motherly smile if anything. That's when Yugo remembered one word that the Iop woman softy said to him.

"Yugo…"

Both Alibert and Mia were surprised at this.

"My name… is Yugo." Yugo softy said as he wanted to get up but couldn't. He was still too weak and injured. Looking up at both Mia and Alibert with a strained expression. "That's all I remember. I'm sorry but I can't remember how I got here."

Mia looked over at Alibert with a concerned look. Alibert began to think over Yugo's words. It was possible that it could have been amnesia. But when they were checking him for injuries his head didn't have anything too serious. Nothing that could cause amnesia.

Maybe he was faking it? Or maybe not? Either way Alibert was convinced that something was wrong with Yugo. The way he acted sure didn't look like he was faking it.

"That's alright, Yugo. You remember your name at least." Alibert said as he walked over and placed a caring hand on Yugo's uninjured shoulder. Causing him to look up at the mayor. "Well, you're probably hungry. I'm gonna head down and make you some grub."

"I uh, don't think I have any money." Yugo said nervously.

This got a small laugh from Alibert and he head towards the door.

"Don't worry. You can work it off later when you're all healed up." Alibert said as he walked out of the room. But not before saying one last thing to Yugo. "You just take it easy. Don't worry about paying me or Mia for treating your injuries either. Seeing you okay is payment enough."

The mayor/chef left after that. Leaving a smiling Mia and still confused Yugo.

"That Alibert. He has a kind heart and gentle soul." Mia stated out loud getting Yugo's attention. Which she finally noticed. "Oh, sorry. Just thinking out loud. Are you okay? No serious pain?"

Yugo shook his head. He was very sore but no serious pain.

"That's great. I'm happy you're alright. Most people probably wouldn't have survived with your injuries." Mia explained. "You are very lucky."

That got a small chuckle from Yugo.

"I don't feel so lucky. But thank you… Mia." Yugo thanked as he decided to lay back down. "That's your name right?"

Mia nodded with a smile.

"That's a pretty name. Makes sense for such a pretty girl." Yugo said with a weak smile. A light blush appeared on his face when he realized what he just said. "Oh I'm sorry! I-I don't know where that came from."

He wasn't the only one as Mia was blushing up a storm. She wasn't offended. It was just unexpected.

"It's okay. Um… thanks for the complement." Mia shyly said with a timid expression. "I better go down and check on Alibert. Hope he doesn't try and bake some bread. You should rest up. I'll be back later. Okay?"

The Eliatrope nodded and got comfortable. Mia smiled one more time before leaving. Now it was just Yugo. All by himself.

Right now a lot of things were going through his mind. All of them questions. Like why was here or who was he? He knew his name but that's it. Who was that woman he remembered briefly. Why did his heart hurt a little when he thought of her? And why did it feel like he was having the worst day imaginable?

No matter how hard he tired he couldn't remember. Who was he? Who was Yugo? Why was he injured?

"Guess I should rest for now. Hopefully I can remember something later."

Yugo sighed as he looked up at the ceiling. His head filled with many questions and no answers. While his heart was heavy. Why did it hurt so much that he felt so alone?

With no answers Yugo closed his eyes and let the darkness overtake him.

He only hoped that he could remember something soon. Unfortunately for him he wouldn't be able to recall anything from his life anytime soon. No, not until that faithful day. The day where his greatest journey begins.

To Be Continued

Next Time On Wakfu Altered Destiny: With no where to go and having little to no memory of his life. Yugo is taken in by Alibert and works as his apprentice. Living a simple life while being friends with everyone in Emelka. This goes on for a few years until one day Yugo suddenly remembers something important from his past life when in a fight against a certain red haired warrior. Which sets off our hero's journey to rediscover himself. While meeting some interesting and familiar people along the way.

AN: And done! What do you think? Give me your honest opinions. Sorry if I've made any errors or mistakes. I'm still a pretty shit writer. I'm trying though. Anyways before some if not all of you get confused or lost about this story. Thought I should clear some things up.

Yugo has been around for a long time. About the same time as Goultard. Being raised by Goultard's mother Cabotine. Meaning both Yugo and Goultard were raised as brothers.

Yugo has met a lot of people. Like Nox before he lost his family and became unhinged. He's even helped Joris when he was younger and Ogrest before he caused the chaos. Expect a couple of noticeable people to know Yugo if they've been around for awhile.

Oropo and The Siblings attacked Yugo because he was threat to their plans. Why Oropo didn't just kill Yugo? Its because he needs Yugo. Why they took Adamai is because he's Yugo's brother. And in Oropo's mind that makes him his brother.

Nox knows dragons still exist because of Yugo. This whole time he's been looking for them. Only just getting knowledge of Grougaloragran. Expect Nox to pop up here and again.

Yugo will be powerful on here. On par with Oropo or Qilby when Lobotomized. But won't be super strong at the start. Because he will have to remember his fighting and magical prowess. Still, he'll be stronger than his younger counterpart in the series at the start.

That's all I can share for now. I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. If there's a lot of interest in this story off the bat I'll write the next chapter right. If not don't worry. Expect the next chapter in few months or less. I'm a slow writer. Please leave a review with your questions, suggestions or general feedback. See ya!
