Growing Love

Hey this is just something I was doing while bored. I've never seen a Azaka/Kamidake fic before so I decided to write one. I really don't care for flames on this beacuse if those Star Wars fans can slash Obi-won and Qui-gon I can put Azaka and Kamidake together, so there. Enjoy the fic.^_^Just so you know Azaka is the same age that he is in Tenchi Universe.
Azaka walked slowly towards the grand hall where dozens of little boys waited. It was time for Azaka to chose who would his partner knight would be. He and the Emperor had decided that instead of Azaka having to chose an older boy that he would have to train over Azaka would chose a younger boy and train him untill he was older. This brought forth a problem that Azaka would get even older so the Emperor had one of his magicans conjure up a potion that would temperally stop Azaka from aging for about 20 years. Azaka waited a moment before entering the hall. The moment he did there was complete silence. Boys aged 6 to 7 stood in a straight line each wanting so much to be chosen by this ledengdary knight. Azaka started at the beginning of the line to personally meet each boy. Azaka would be searching for a boy whose heart that was pure. Each knight for years had chosen their partners by their own standard. Azaka wanted something different in his partner. It also depended if the boys magic was compadable with Azaka's power. First each boy, when Azaka walked passed him, was to step forward and say their name. Azaka patiently listened to each boy and studied them. When Azaka came to the last little boy something happened. The boy must have been too excited because when he stepped forward he tripped and landed flat on his face in front of Azaka. Laughter rippled from the boys at the poor boy on the floor. The first thing he noticed about the boy was his hair, it looked red but brown at the same time. The boy didn't get up all the way he sat on his legs with his head down. Azaka bent down on one knee and lifted the boy's chin with his hand. The boy's eyes were a nice light purple and Azaka realized that the boy was crying."Why do you cry? Is it because of that cut?" Azaka had just then noticed a small cut on the boy's cheek. He waited and got no response until a small voice said,"No, sir." Azaka looked at the boy and asked again,"Then why do you cry?"
"Because I have given you a very bad impression of myself." The way the boy said it Azaka was immediatly touched by the small boy."What is your name boy?" The boy looked up startled at Azaka's question."Kamidake, sir" was the answer that Azaka got."Kamidake would you hold out your hand?" As Kamidake brought his hand out Azaka took out a small knife. Carefully he pricked one of Kamidake's fingers and squeezed a single drop of blood into a crystal like jar small enough to fit one drop of blood in it. Azaka mentally remembered that it was Kamidake's blood. He got up and went to nine other boys and took drops of blood from them. He then turned to the boys and said,"Tomorrow the ten boys whose blood I took will return and one will be my partner." He could see disapointment in the most of the boys eyes and hope in the nine he had chosen, but when he looked over to Kamidake he saw surprise in his eyes. Azaka smiled to himself. For some reason the small boy had touched Azaka more deeply than anything. That night before he went to bed he knew that he had made his decison. The next morning the ten boys were present each with their parents. To Azaka's surprise there was no one standing with Kamidake. We stepped out into the hall and said,"I thank you for coming here today. I have made my decison on who will be my partner." The parents all stood anxious about who the knight would chose. Azaka walked by the boys and stood between Kamidake and another little boy. He could see hope in both boy's eyes. He kneeled down in front of the two boys and at first it seemed like the other boy would be chosen, then Azaka spoke."It is you who will be my partner..." Kamidake's eyes had begun to water beacuse he thought he had lost for sure."Kamidake." Kamidake looked up to see the knight smiling at him. Kamidake's eyes filled with such happiness that Azaka felt he had done the right thing. The small boy launched himself into the older man's arms and hugged him. For a moment Azaka was startled by this show of affection but he hugged the small boy back. The boy that stood next to Kamidake, his name was Shin and he was Kamidake's best friend, cheered. Kamidake moved from Azaka's embraced and faced his friend. "Kamidake you are sooo lucky." Kamidake just cutely scratched his head as the other boys surrounded him. "Excuse me sir." Azaka looked up and saw a woman. "I'm am Shin's mother and there are a few things you should know about Kamidake." Azaka got up and listened to what she had to say. After talking to her he called for a servant."Go send someone to the royal orphange to get Kamidake's things he will now live in the palace with me." Kamidake's eyes got big when he heard this."Do you mean it sir."Azaka bent down and put one hand on Kamidake's head. "Yes, and you may call me by my name, Azaka. Kamidake this is how things will work. For five years you will stay in the castle and train with me. When those five years are up I will take you outside the palace so that you may see your friends again. I suggest that you say goodbye to them now." Kamidake looked slightly unhappy, but he did what he was told. As soon as the other boys had left Azaka took Kamidake's hand and lead him to their quarters. Azaka had kept a extra bed in his room and had decided that instead of sleeping in another room Kamidake would sleep in Azaka's room."Okay Kamidake first you go take a bath then we'll go down for dinner." Kamidake got a sour look on his face when the word "bath" was mention."Do I have to take a bath tonight?" Azaka looked at the small boy and replied,"Yes." Kamidake looked up at Azaka and began to pout cutely."Do I really have to take a bath tonight? Can't I take one in the morning?" Azaka turned toward the six year old and found himself losing a battle to Kamidake's cuteness."Please?" Azaka groaned and said,"Alright but first thing in the morning." Kamidake giggled and ran to jump on the bed. Azaka realized that he would have train against Kamidake's cuteness or the boy would be getting everything he wanted."Kamidake come here." Kamidake was jumping on the bed when he turned to get off but he lost his balance and was going to fall on his head when Azaka leaped forward and caught him. Unfortunatly the force of Azaka catching Kamidake made Azaka lose his balance. Azaka fell flat on his back with Kamidake on top of him. "Ow" Kamidake said as he rubbed his head. Azaka sighed and said,"You know I think your more trouble than your worth."
"Is that bad?" Kamidake asked cluelessly. Azaka sighed again and got up."Listen we need to get you some new clothes for supper."
"What is wrong with my clothes?" Kamidake askd."Nothing we just need to get you new ones because you are going to be presented to the Emperor at dinner." Kamidake's eyes got big at that remark."Come on let's get dressed." Azaka finished.
A few hours later...
Azaka walked toward the dinning hall with Kamidake by his side walking nerviously. Before they went in Azaka nelt down in front of Kamidake and made sure he was presentable."Now when we are presented don't be nervous." Kamidake only nodded in agreement. They walked in and waited to be announced."The Knights Azaka and Kamidake." With that said Azaka and Kamidake began their walk towards the Emperor. When they reached the throne they both bowed at the same time. "So Azaka, this is your partner." The Emperor studied Kamidake for a moment before he said,"Boy come closer to me." Kamidake swallowed before walking to the Emperor. The Emperor then took Kamidake's chin and studied his face. He then looked into Kamidake's eyes."Consulor, who are his parents?" The consulor stepped forth and said,"Both of his parents are dead but we found out who they are by a drop of blood that Azaka provided us with. We have determined that his father was an ordinary citizen but his mother was Jenea the famous swordmaker." For a moment the Emperor looked surprised. "You have your mothers eyes Kamidake."
"Did you know my mother?" Kamidake asked. "Once I was in love with your mother. She was the most beautiful and talented woman on all of Juri. I would of married her if I could of but she didn't want me she wanted your father. She made the most powerful sword ever it has yet to be surpassed. You know Kamidake she always wanted a her son to be a royal knight." Kamidake's eyes got big when he heard this."Kamidake will you try to make your mother proud? Will you try your hardest to make her proud?" For a moment Kamidake was silent until he said,"Yes, I will honor my mothers wishes." With a smile the Emperor motioned for Kamidake to take his place beside Azaka. That night after dinner Azaka got Kamidake ready for bed."Azaka?"
"Yes Kamidake?" Azaka turned to where Kamidake stood next to his bed."Would you tuck me in?"
Azaka smiled at the small boy and nodded his head. Kamidake gave a small shout of joy before he prepared to jump on the bed. The second he lept in the air Azaka had grabbed him."Now no more of that. Remember what happened last time?" Kamidake gave another one of his cute pouts before he gave up and crawled into his bed. Azaka pulled the covers over him and was about to get in his bed when he heard his name. He turned and found Kamidake staring at him."What is it Kamidake?"
"Um, Azaka could I ask you for one more thing?" Azaka wasn't surprised when he heard this and he asked,"What is it that you want?" He could see that Kamidake was a little hestant to ask him."Well?"
"Would you give me a good night kiss." For a moment Azaka was speechless."You see my mother died when I was litle and my daddy never gave me one and I always wondered what it was like to get a good night kiss." The moment that Azaka looked into Kamidake's eyes he knew that he couldn't deny Kamidake. He walked back over to Kamidake's bed and leaned over. He gave Kamidake a quick kiss on his forehead and told him good night."Good night,"Kamidake said as he snuggled under his covers. Azaka quickly got into bed happy with himself for chosing Kamidake.
In the middle of the night he was awakened by yelling and crying. He got up and realized that it was Kamidake crying. He ran to Kamidake's side and tried to wake the boy up. Kamidake finally woke up crying."Kamidake what's wrong? Are you alright?" Kamidake just cried harder as he buried his face in Azaka's chest. "Kamidake what is wrong?" After a few minutes Kamidake began to talk."I had a nightmare about a man who use to..." Azaka tried to look Kamidake in the eye but he refused to meet his gaze."Kamidake tell me everything."
"There was this man who was a friend of daddy's he came into my room one night last year and he began to touch me..." Kamidake didn't need to finish his sentence Azaka understood. He felt anger at the man that had hurt poor Kamidake. Azaka began to stroke Kamidake's hair to try to get him to sleep."Azaka," Kamidake said,"Can I sleep with you tonight?"
"Of course Kamidake." In ten minutes Kamidake had fallen back to sleep. Azaka swore then that he would try as best to raise Kamidake to be the best person that he could possibly be.
End Part 1
Well what did you think? The next chapter will take place five years from this chapter and will start when Kamidake is able to see his friends again. Yes, there will be yaoi in later chapters so if you don't like then don't read it.
