Yumi-chan Hamano: This story is originally KuroCiel's story! I adopted the story after she told me that this story was deleted from her computer and she's not going to continue! I was really upset since this story is AMAZING! I'm going to do my best to continue this amazing story but my writing style is pretty different from her! Please enjoy!
The first five chapters are written by KuroCiel! Her property, not mine! Don't sue me!
Also, the story is still one her account but these chapters have been checked from grammar and spelling by yours truly but I'm not good at spelling and grammar myself!
Kyo Kara Maoh! and the characters (Except Some new characters) are owned by Tomo Takabayashi!
Then... Here we go :D
The day was almost over. The night was young and the moon stood high in the sky. Everybody was sleeping except Conrad. He walked around to see that every preparation was ready for the King's long journey tomorrow. There were many things to check for perfection but everything was as it should be.
"I hope it won't go into chaos after all that long preparation." He said for himself and went towards he's room to get his sleep.
NEXT MORNING.
Yuuri stood and dressed himself for the journey. A new old lady, who is the designer, had come to the castle, to design some new clothes for the Maoh. A beautiful green, a little loose, silk shirt with a stripe of gold where there should perhaps be a zipper. Pants of leather, a little loose. And black of course. Wolfram took his original uniform but was suddenly stopped by the lady.
"My name is Trancia Von Hillwaroid and it might be that I have been ordered to design some new clothes for the country's King, but ..." She said, and took his clothes from him. Wolfram got annoyed and started to hit after her. Trancia grabbed his hand and stared viciously at him.
"This is not a look for one to be on a journey with his fiancée and certainly not when he is a king." She said and smiled sweetly just after. Yuuri saw confused at the two stood in front of the window and discussed. Conrad came in and everyone looked at him.
"Is everything okay, Your Majesty?" He asked and stopped in front of Yuuri. Wolfram finally surrendered to Trancia and allowed her measure his size. Yuuri smiled and looked up at Conrad.
"Of course, everything is okay, Conrad ... But now, stop calling me 'Your Majesty'. You keep doing it." Yuuri said and smiled. Conrad smiled back. A little time passed and Wolfram had got a new look. It looked like a hunting suit, just a little more formally.
"Don't I look stupid in this clothes?" Wolfram asked, and looked a little rusty in his face. Trancia gave him her killing glance. He smiled with a wretched smile.
IN THE MEANTIME.
Gwendal came out from his office to see Günter standing out there, waiting for King Yuuri and the others. Gwendal looked a little worried for him.
"Don't be too... Yeah... you know, yourself." He said, and got his angry look again. Günter smiled silly.
"Oh, of course not." He replied. Gwendal doubted it. Suddenly the door opened to King's room. Trancia stood in the door and smiled sweetly for Günter and opened the door completely.
"So, we're probably ready?" Yuuri asked and smiled. Conrad looked at them.
"Yeah, but what about Greta?" Wolfram asked, and looked toward the door where Greta stood in the doorway with slightly sad eyes. Yuuri smiled rather sheepishly and walked toward her. He squatted down and stroked her hair.
"Don't worry, Greta. We'll go out on a long journey together, one day," he said while he smiled sweetly at her. Greta smiled awry.
"Okay." She replied and hugged him. He hugged back. Trancia clapped suddenly her hands and smiled.
"Let us take care of the Princess, Your Majesty and take off on your journey." She said and bowed to King Yuuri. Yuuri stopped to hug Greta, and stood up and smiled proudly.
"Okay!" He said. Conrad smiled and so did everyone else. They went out to the horses which stood ready with things hanging and soldiers on their horses.
"Why aren't you going with us, Gwendal?" Yuuri asked and got the reply "There's a man who must take care of the Castle.". Later. Wolfram hugged Greta goodbye. Gisela came with some small things for her Father. Gwendal commanded with his soldiers. Anissina stood with Lady Cheri and waved to Yuuri. Conrad stood and was ready to help Yuuri up on his horse. Soon afterwards. All the women stood back alone and waved goodbye to the men, who were moving away on their horses. Gwendal had entered the door again. Greta saw them disappear from sight and she went inside along with the others. The journey would take a week or so, because the trip was to Small Shimaron as they just had to ride through and then directly back to Shin Makoku.
LATER.
Yuuri sat on Ao, and thought back to other times where they had been on trips, but it had all mostly been due to issues or something. He laughed a little at the idea.
"What's so funny, Yuuri?" Wolfram asked a little angrily and rode up beside him. Yuuri looked away.
"Just some old memories, you know ... This is one of the longest trips we have ever been on." Yuuri replied, looking at him right after. After, they laughed a little both. Conrad smiled and continued to ride on. They went riding into a forest. There were already gone 15 hours since they left. 192 km away from the border with Shin Makoku. The forest was beautiful. The trees were large and shadows to the sun but a few places the sun came into. All the flowers shone in the sunshine, but no animals and see. Conrad thought it was strange but suddenly ran a rabbit past him. He took it easy again and continued. Suddenly the forest ended and they came out to the field and a few houses.
"Conrad ..?" Asked Yuuri and lined up beside him. Conrad so confused him with a little smile on his lips.
"Yes ..? What is it?" he replied, smiling easily and calmly.
"Can I ask you a favor?" Asked Yuuri and smiled wryly. Conrad saw short confused at him. Suddenly he realized what it was. He giggled at the thought and nodded afterward. Yuuri smiled sweetly and so on. He saw a different house further along the path.
"Look! There is an inn." Yuuri shouted and pointed toward the smaller house. They rode to the inn.
I hope your looking forward to more because now I'm going to continue this story! :)
