Challenge: 31halloween: prompt #25, cape
Summary: [one-shot, 31halloween, prompt #25, cape; Yubel & Martin] Yubel has everything ready for the birth of the Martin Zombie Empire. Just one last detail to have it all right.
Yubel explored her new body with great attention to detail. For all of his small size, Martin Kanou held a level of darkness she hadn't seen in some time, darkness that drew her in inevitably. Amon Garam's darkness was a pale shadow compared to this level of loneliness and heartache.
But it wasn't complete, not yet. She'd already decided what to do; Martin wanted friends, didn't he? And she wanted to show Juudai how much she loved him, sharing the pain he'd once given her. Both of those goals could be accomplished with one action.
And yet, one small piece remained undone. Martin would rule an empire in short order, and an emperor needed to look the part. It only took a moment or two for her to manifest what she needed. For the most part his Ra Yellow uniform fit the image she wanted. But now she added a flowing cape with a high collar to it, draping it around one arm.
Excellent. The cape reminded her of the old days, so many eons earlier. Those of high station wore garments such as this. Perhaps it would jog Juudai's memory a little, once he saw it.
Perhaps she could also find a place and a body to wear her old armor. She hoped she wouldn't need to. She hoped her beloved would remember her before this ended.
I'm coming, Juudai.
The End
