Disclaimer: I do NOT own Kyou Kara Maou or the characters! If I did, it would be all Yuuram ^-^ I just did this for fun, because Yuuri and Wolf are so fun to play with!
This is my first attempt at writing a fanfic. Any reviews, negative or positive, would be appreciated *bows*
Prologue
The sun was raising on another beautiful day in Shin Makoku. The Bad Omen birds were calling out "engiwaru" and the Kohi were helping the castle staff with their daily chores in the courtyards. Another peaceful day for the great and glorious Demon Kingdom.
"YOU ROTTEN NO GOOD CHEATER!"
"Aww Wolf come on! I was just helping her carry some laundry."
"THAT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE ALL YOU WANTED TO CARRY YOU UNFAITHFUL WIMP!"
A fireball was narrowly dodged by the young black haired Maou. "Wolf I didn't do anything! Stop throwing fireballs at me already!" Yuuri decided to take shelter behind a tree in the courtyard as he fled from his irate fiery blonde fiancé.
"YUURI COME OUT AND TAKE YOUR PUNISHMENT LIKE A MAN!" Wolfram bellowed as he stalked towards the Maou's hiding place.
On a veranda over looking the courtyard sat the former Maou, the Great Sage, Lord Von Voltaire, Lord Conrad Weller, Lord von Christ, and Greta. The group was enjoying a lovely spring morning having breakfast al fresco.
"My Wolfie and Heika are so energetic today!" Lady Celi squealed.
"Poor Shibuya" Murata sighed while shaking his head with a wicked grin.
Gwendal could feel a migraine coming on and raised his hand to cover his eyes. Conrad tried to contain a small chuckle, while Greta continued to eat her pancakes.
"What does Little Lord Brat think he is doing to our beloved Maou?" Gunter cried.
Once Wolfram had calmed down and Yuuri had sworn his faithfulness, the royal couple joined the others for breakfast. The table was littered with all manner of breakfast pastries and the two boys wasted no time filling their faces.
"I wanted to let everyone know that Murata and I will be returning to Earth for a little bit, we have our finals coming up. I can't believe that we will be graduating soon!" Yuuri proclaimed to the group.
"Shibuya, have you given any further thought about attending University once we graduate?" Murata asked.
"No, what about you Murata?"
"Hmm . . . I don't know yet. I suppose that all depends. . ." Murata trailed off.
"On what Geika?" Gunter inquired.
"On Shibuya" Murata stated.
"On me?" Yuuri asked.
"Yup! If you want to go to University, then I will go too. However, if you want to stay here and completely devote your time to Shin Makoku, then I will stay here with you." Murata announced with a warm smile on his face. "I am your Sage after all Shibuya."
"Murata . . ." Yuuri couldn't believe that his friend would be willing to follow his lead to that extent. He smiled at his be-speckled sage. "I don't know what to say . . . "
"You don't need to say anything Shibuya. I made up my mind a long time ago that I would stay by your side, my only Maou." Murata continued to smile and bowed his head slightly towards his King. "Now if you all will excuse me, I need to go over a few things with Ulrike before Shibuya and I leave this afternoon." With that he stood up, bowed his head to the group, and made his way back towards Shinou's temple.
Yuuri was shocked and it clearly showed on his face as his mouth hung wide open. "Wow, I did not expect that."
"Is there something going on between you and Geika that you want to tell me about Yuuri?" Wolfram growled.
"Just when you think you know someone, they go and surprise you like that," Yuuri said while shaking his head in disbelief and ignoring his fiancé.
"Ahh Geika and Hekia, we are truly blessed to be able witness their devotion to each other! Such magnificent Double Blacks!" Gunter squeaked.
"Oi, Yuuri!" Wolfram screamed. He held his fist out, covered in flames, ready to strike.
Breakfast concluded with the Maou having a few scorch marks on his uniform. "Honestly your brother has the shortest fuse!" Yuuri complained to Gwendal as they poured over a large stack of documents that needed their attention before his departure.
Gwendal raised his head and stared at the boy sitting across from him, "short fuse? I do not understand Heika."
"Sorry, it's a saying on Earth." Yuuri scratched the back of his head. "It means he has a terribly quick temper," he stated. He poked at a burn mark on his left arm. "I mean we are both guys, and I like girls. We have technically been engaged for what? Five years or so now? Don't you think that its time to call it officially off? I mean it was an accident in the first place." Yuuri rambled.
"My brother has always had a fiery temper, especially when it is something that he is passionate about. However, if you truly have no feelings for him, then you should let him go. It is not fair to either of you, particularly Wolfram. You clearly feel strongly that men should not be together romantically, so perhaps it is time to discontinue the charade and allow you both to move on and find someone new." With that said Gwendal returned his attention to the document in his hand.
"Yeah, maybe it is time. I don't want to hurt Wolf. I care about him deeply, you know, as a friend! I just don't know what to do, but I have put this off long enough already. While I am on Earth I will decide what to do. Thanks for hearing me out Gwendal." Yuuri stood up, with a new determination in his eyes. 'I will think about my feelings carefully and come to decision once and for all,' he thought. 'If nothing else, Wolfram deserves a definitive answer, one way or the other. It's about time you give him one Shibuya Yuuri!' He looked out the window of his office and gazed at his kingdom. 'What do I want?' He wondered.
After a few moments he said his goodbyes to the stoic Lord von Voltaire and left his office. Yuuri made his way towards the library, where he knew that he would find Gunter and Greta. He wanted to leave before lunch time, so he decided to say goodbye to his daughter now. Yuuri pushed open the worn wooden doors of the library and stepped inside. There, next to the large window, he saw the prettiest little girl in all of Shin Makoku.
"Hey Greta honey!" Yuuri beamed.
"Daddy Yuuri!" Greta squealed as she threw her book down and propelled herself into Yuuri's out stretched arms. "Are you and Uncle Ken leaving?" she asked with a fake sniffle.
"Yes baby, but don't worry, we will be back soon." Yuuri said while petting his daughters hair gently. The King loved his adopted daughter so much. 'Soon, too soon, she is going to be a teenager,' Yuuri internally groaned.
"I will be a good girl while you are gone Daddy. Gunter said that I am doing really good in my lessons and Papa Wolf said that he is going to start teaching me how to use a sword while you're gone." She smiled and stared into her adoptive Fathers dark loving eyes.
"What? Sword? My baby girl? When did Wolf say that? We haven't discussed this!" Yuuri shrieked.
"Oops, maybe I wasn't supposed to tell you Daddy. Maybe it was a surprise." She said innocently.
"I will talk with him about this Greta, don't you worry. Be good and I will be back before you know it!' Yuuri leaned down and lightly kissed his daughters cheek. He then stood and softly patted her on the head. A hurried farewell to Gunter and the King was on his way to find a certain blonde fire demon that he wanted a word with before he left.
Wolfram was training his troops in the late morning sun. He had his men paired off with each other and doing some sparing exercises. Every now and then he would stop a pair and correct a soldiers stance or demonstrate more effective footwork. He was proud of his men. He had taken a ragtag group of men and turned them into real soldiers, capable of protecting the kingdom and their King. 'That wimp,' he thought to himself. 'If I find out that the perverted sage and him are up to anything suspicious, I will burn both of them to a crisp.' Wolfram was brought back from his musings, when he noticed that all of his men were at full attention. 'What the?' He thought as he spun around and saw an upset Yuuri headed his way. 'What is that wimps problem? Oh shit! Did he talk with Greta before I had a chance to speak with him?" he pondered.
"Heika!" In one clear voice the soldiers saluted their King and bowed respectfully.
"At ease guys," Yuuri said sheepishly, raising his hand. He still had a hard time dealing with that level of respect and admiration from his people. "I just need a word with your Captain here," he said while pointing at Wolfram.
The Prince turned to face his men. "Good work men. We will pick up from here tomorrow, you may have the rest of the day off, dismissed!"
"Yes sir!" The men filed out of the training yard and headed for their barracks.
Wolfram turned to face Yuuri once the last soldier was out of earshot. "What is it Yuuri?" he asked.
"You know damn well what it is Wolf!" Yuuri bellowed. "You were planning on training Greta in sword fighting behind my back!"
"I was going to speak with you about it first actually. She just seemed so excited about it, that I told her we would do it." Wolfram admitted.
"She is a little girl! My little girl! Absolutely not!" Yuuri screamed.
"She is no longer a little girl wimp! And she is my daughter too you jerk!" Wolfram retorted.
Yuuri hadn't meant to say that Wolf wasn't her father too. He knew no matter what happened between them in the future, he would never dream of separating Wolf from Greta, they were both her fathers after all. Yuuri knew that Wolfram loved Greta just as much as he did. The King took a deep breath and calmly started again. "Wolf I know she is growing up and I know she is your daughter too. I just don't want our baby girl to get hurt."
Wolfram huffed haughtily while crossing his arms over his chest, "Wimp do you honestly think I would let any harm befall out precious daughter?"
Yuuri already was aware the answer to that question was obviously no. "Alright Wolf, just please please promise me to take it easy and slow with her. I mean you were not gentle with me when I first started."
"Of course I will! You are a wimpy King and needed an accelerated and rigorous training program to get you to be somewhat capable with a sword. Look at you now, five years later and you can almost hold your own in a fight, I am so proud." Wolfram huffed while rolling his eyes.
"Oi! I have gotten a lot better!" Yuuri said, offended. "Wolf, I trust you with Greta, just next time talk to me about that kind of stuff first ok?"
Wolfram relaxed his posture and calmed down. "Will do."
"Thanks," Yuuri gave Wolfram a sincere and warm smile.
Immediately upon seeing Yuuri's smile a gentle blush graced the fire demons cheeks. 'Damn him!' He internally cursed. 'Why does he have to be so adorable like that? It's not fair!' Wolfram nodded towards his King. 'I am so weak. I would do anything to have him smile like that at me all the time,' he thought. 'I am such an idiot for falling in love with this cute, clueless, wimpy king!' He internally condemned himself.
"Are you coming to the temple to see us off Wolf?" Yuuri inquired.
"Of course I am wimp! Lets get going, I'm sure Conrart is waiting." Wolfram said while grabbing a hold of the Kings arm and pulling him towards the stables.
Conrad was waiting with their horses saddled and ready when they arrived. Together the three men made their way to the temple. Upon their arrival they were greeted by a group of lovely shrine maidens. The men handed over their reigns and entered the temple in search for a certain sage.
"Shibuya! You ready to go?" Murata asked as he emerged from the temple with Ulrike in tow.
"Yup!" Yuuri turned to his godfather and his accidental fiancé, "Well I'm off!" He joined Murata in standing next to the fountain in the middle of the temples main courtyard.
"Oi Yuuri! Don't be unfaithful to me while you are gone, you shameless flirt!" Wolfram threateningly growled.
"Take care Heika," Conrad said while waiving at his godson.
"It's Yuuri Conrad, geez!" Yuuri pushed himself and Murata into the fountain, they were swallowed by a sudden whirlpool, and sucked back to Earth.
Authors note: This is just the set up chapter. I hope to have the next chapter up in the next few days. This is so exciting for me! I have read pretty much every Yuuram out there. Oh and I am sorry if my speech punctuation isn't correct, I am working on it
