Summary so far:
When Miku sacrifice herself for the village, her life has changed forever. She found herself in a room and meets a lady who is Dr. Luka. It has been discovered that she is in a palace and that the water god is here! So she went to go search for him, but she
found herself in a sticky situation. He wouldn't make her village rain, but when he finally did, he realized that he was captured in his smile! Is this start for them? [Sucky summary, but it will change in the next chapter]
I'm human
I'm not a procession
You think that you are all powerful
And everyone should just listen to you
But not me!
I'm not someone who you could order all day long
In the white morning mist, he saw her standing there in the garden. She was surrounded by blooming, large flowers. Her pink hair dancing in the wind, and her eyes closed in peace.
She turned around when she heard his footsteps, and she had a small smile on her face. Her arms were wide open, and he gladly accepted it.
"Aren't the yellow tulips beautiful?" The girl asked when she looked up into his eyes. Her cherry eyes reflected back into his cobalt eyes.
"Yes, you are…" He said as he dug his nose into her hair.
"Honey, I meant the flowers…" She giggled as she patted his head.
"I know, but you smell like yellow tulips…" The girl giggled once more.
"Honey? If I were to die, I want to be buried in a field with yellow tulips." She said suddenly. The man's eyebrow quirked up in confusion.
"I can't do that…" He teased gently as he pulled her even closer to him. "You are always going to be by my side."
The girl in his arms sighed at his response. "You can't control death, even if you are a powerful god…"
The man frowned, and he studied her serene face. "I'll never let you die…"
"One day, I may be gone, what would happen to you?" He frowned at her question.
"Why would you leave?" Then the girl in his arm laughed. It was the most beautiful laugh he'd ever heard in his life.
"What you said is right! Why would I leave? I have no reason to leave you, after all we are bonded forever now."
Len's eyes snapped open. Looking around, he saw he was under the shade of the trees. He could hear his companions laughing in the shallow, forest lake. The air around him was cool and refreshing, causing him to relax a little bit.
How long has it been since he last saw her in his dreams? It has been ages…
It was so vivid and tangible that he thought she was actually right besides him, in his arms.
He shook his head. Every time her name was being mentioned, he would feel pain in his heart. Every time he saw her in his dreams, he felt like he could die at just that moment. He wanted to forget about her, but how could he?
It made him feel weak. The pain in his chest kept growing as he kept thinking about her. He didn't want to be weak, but he was weak.
He heard a musical laugh and turned to see Miku and Rei childishly playing in the water. The two had just been a fight earlier, but he guessed they just got passed their earlier annoyance and were now enjoying themselves as siblings. He saw that Miku's yukata was pulled up, so she was able to walk in the water more easily.
"Come back here, you brat!" Miku yelled happily as she chased Rei in the lake.
"You'll never catch me, ugly!" Rei stuck his tongue out and continued running away. Miku helplessly smiled, and she slapped her hand on the water, causing it to hit Rei's face. "Oh you are going to get it!" He laughed as he did the same action towards Miku. Soon, they were having a war, wanting to see who would win. Of course that was pointless since neither would.
His eyes lingered on Miku for a while. He waited for that warm, unusual sensation to come again in his chest. Nothing happened, and he relaxed once more. It was just a fluke emotion, that was all. It was just a one time thing, and he was grateful for that.
"Are you okay, Len?" Luka asked as she took a seat next to him. The water god groaned.
"I was okay before you insisted taking us here…" Len stared at the older lady.
"It was better for you to get out of Gakupo's palace. It was extremely hot in-!"
"Which I was perfectly fine until we came over here!" Len said, cutting her off. He hated how the heat made him exhausted and weak, and he was aware about the heat surrounding the palace as well, but it was a lot better over there than here…It was all Kaito's and Gakupo's fault, which all started today in the morning…
"Dang it!" Gakupo moaned. "Why does it have to be really hot in my palace?"
Kaito flapped his shirt nonstop. "I don't know, Gakupo, but I hate it!"
"Maybe it was Akaito's fault!" Luka groaned, glancing at Rin.
Rin realized the older lady's gaze was on her, and she looked around in shock as almost everyone's gaze was on her too. "W-What?" She said, offended.
"Did you do something stupid, Rin?" Len asked coldly, which made his older sister hang her head.
"No…" She stuttered. Then, she glared at each and everyone of them. "Why do you guys assume it was me who caused this?"
"The only one who would be stupid enough to make him mad is you," Len pointed out.
"Fine! I did make him mad!" Rin admitted, frustrated. She pulled her knees against her chest and dug her head in.
Miku stared at the wind goddess and patted her back. "He'll forgive you…" Rin lifted her head and smiled weakly. She nodded her head in thanks and looked at Kaito, who was talking right now.
"Why don't we all go to the forest lake?" He suggested.
"That would be great!" Gakupo exclaimed. "It would be awesome for Miku to be out of the palace for once!" The girl blushed, and she couldn't help but nod. One week had passed since she arrived, and the only thing she was at was this Sonic palace! She never went out of the palace and explored the Sonic country!
"This is going to be a fun vacation!" Rin shouted enthusiastically, finally not upset about the whole Akaito thing.
"You'll like it Miku! It's mostly just forest but it has a lake too! It's really beautiful!" Kaito added excitedly. "Plus you can finally be out of the castle!"
Miku couldn't help but be tempted by the idea. "That would be really nice…"
"There is no need," Len cut in. "It's perfectly fine in the castle."
"Oh come on, Len!" Kaito said. "It's getting hot over here and the forest is nice and cool! It's going to be good for you!"
"I don't want to go…" Len said coolly.
"I do!" Miku said brightly.
The water god gave her a frigid glare. "You are my wife. If I don't want to go, then you aren't going either."
"You can't order me around!" Miku snapped back at him.
"You want to bet on that?" Len shot back at her. He got out of his seat and was in front of her. Their noses touching slightly, and the two glared at each other.
"Come on, Len! Miku wants to go, Rei wants to go, everyone wants to go! This could be like a family vacation," Kaito said with a grin.
"Since when were we a family?" Len growled, one of his eyebrows twitching.
"I think that is a good idea…" Luka said, ignoring the tense aura from the young god. "Plus…Miku needs to explore the sonic country before she starts heading towards the water country."
"She doesn't need anything," Len said coldly- again. Miku had to tighten her hand into a fist to keep from strangling his neck. The only thing that she could do was just glare at him, which seem pretty acceptable to him.
"Len, it's going to be good for you. The temperature is just right!" Rin gave a wink towards her brother, who scowled at her in return.
"I don't want to go to a 'family vacation' because all of you guy will be pestering me!" Len shouted, and headed out of the kitchen.
Len scowled, and laid back into a resting position, but he couldn't go back to sleep now. The weather was really getting to him now, and he wished he was back at his water country. Most likely it would have been cooler there.
Miku tried to breathe slow and easy, but she couldn't after that long sprint in her restricting yukata. "Rei, how can you run so fast?" she said, breathlessly. Miku then saw Rin coming her way, which she was glad about. She found that she liked Rin so far, and they got along pretty well. Sometimes, she wondered if the wind goddess was actually related to her husband! Miku shook her head. They definitely looked alike, but that wasn't why he was trying to get something out her head. It was the fact that she called that jerk her husband!
"Hey, Miku!" Rin waved as she splashed the water onto herself. "Do you like it so far?" Miku nodded excitedly.
"I really do like it!" Miku then found herself staring at the water god. He looks pale and more tired than he usually does when we get into a fight. Miku assumed that she stared long enough to where it got his attention, so she tore her eyes away from him.
"Rei, you should have been my apprentice instead of Mr. Cold Ice..." Rin admitted with an irritated look. She really didn't understand why the kid she saved chose her brother over her!
Rei snickered, rolling his eyes. "Just because you are my savior doesn't mean I like you!" Without any warning, a dust of wind knocked him over and sent him a foot away from his last location spot. He spit the fresh water out of his mouth and shot a daggered look towards the wind goddess.
Miku watched the scene, helplessly giggling. Miku didn't know why though. She thought that being next to her beloved brother was home and, of course, with her other friends, too.
Unwanted tears started stinging her eyes painfully, and she tried to hold them back. However, they silently dropped, and Miku turned around so no one could see.
She was wrong, though... One person saw and felt it too. Len just studied her and tried to ignore her, but an uneasy feeling rose to his chest. He knew why she was crying. Every tear drop that fell from her eye held hints of what was on her mind.
Curse this, he thought. Why did he have to concentrate on her and the tears? If he didn't, he wouldn't have to feel sympathy for her!
It seemed like forever before the tears finally stopped falling. Miku sighed in relief and slowly slid past Rin and Rei, who were still arguing. She went the opposite direction of where she was supposed to rest, which was where her husband was. Miku bit her lips, wanting to curse herself for calling him her husband- again!
When her foot touched the green grass, she felt a cool feeling, and continued to walk a little until she thought it was time to head back. She was about to place her foot back in the water when she saw a dog coming out of the forest. It walked towards her, and Miku felt a sudden urge to rub its head.
"What are you doing here?" She asked the dog, kneeling before it. "Are you lost?"
The dog wagged his tail in a playful manner, taking one step closer to Miku.
"Do you not have a family?" She said.
The dog shook its head, as if it were to answer her question.
"I see!" Miku smiled brightly. "I guess we are similar then…" She laughed and rubbed his head softly.
A strange feeling alerted Len's sense. He jumped upright. The feeling was ominous, evil, and out for bloodshed. He glanced around the area quickly, attempting to find the source of disturbance. The water god found it on the other side of the lake. He also find his wife standing right next to it.
"Miku! Get away!" Len yelled, startling his companions.
"Huh?" Miku said, seeing that her husband was already coming towards her direction. She felt a dark aura surrounding her, and she trembled. When she turned to look down at the dog, she realized it had transformed into a demon wolf. It's eyes were glowing amber, as if something wicked possessed it. It's fangs bared out, telling her she was it's next meal. Miku stared in horror.
Len immediately rushed over to the lake and started sliding down as fast as he could. Dang it, I'm too late…
Miku clamped her eyes shut and turned away. She was expecting an excruciating bite that took her arm away, but instead, nothing happened. The only thing she heard was loud sweep blade, and the smell of blood (fortunately that wasn't hers) started clinging into the air. The demon cried in pain, and Miku opened her eyes fearfully without knowing.
Standing before her was a man with hair that resembled blood, literally blood. He held a long traditional blade in his hand. Miku saw the demon was lying dead on the ground. The guy before her gazed at her before kneeling towards her.
"Are you alright?" He asked, his eyes burning into her's.
"U-um..yes…" Miku replied with a stutter. She was wary of the stranger but was grateful he saved her life. She looked into his handsome face, and a blush spread across her face. He stared at her with intensity, which made her uncomfortable.
"Ted…" Len's powerful voice said, cutting through the atmosphere with a knife. She turned around to find her husband's eyes glowing dangerously. It wasn't the same usual cobalt eyes. His eyes were the color of baby blue, and it oddly looked strange on him. "What are you doing here?" He demanded.
"I was here on imperial orders…" The man named Ted said smoothly. A smirk appeared on his face. "But I saved this beautiful woman here."
Miku stared at the two with an uneasy look. What the heck could imperial orders mean?
Len clenched his fist tightly, wanting to hold himself from strangling the man. His gaze then snap towards to Miku. "You stupid girl!" He barked, releasing his anger on her. "What the hell did you wander off for?"
Miku was about to protest, but his glare made her silence. He grabbed her wrist and said, "Let's go." The water god forcibly pulled Miku away, leaving Ted. The young girl jerked away from him, shooting him with a look.
"I have to go thank him!" Miku said angrily and splashed the fresh water on the god's face.
Len wiped the water out of his face and glared at his wife. "Anyone could had saved you, so there is no need to-."
"But he did!" Miku pointed out. "Its only really polite if I-."
"I already said there is no need for that! Don't disobey my orders, Miku," Len hissed darkly. "He's not the type of person you want to get along with."
She couldn't help but be taken back by his cold tone. This cold tone was colder than any tone she had heard before. It was obvious that Len and her savior did not get along so well.
Kaito and Rin approached the two. "Miku, are you okay?" The lightning god asked. "And what the hell is Ted doing here?"
Rin crossed her arms against her chest. "He's probably just wondering around because of imperial duties.." She let out a groaned.
"You are exactly right…" Len said, the baby blue color fading away from his eyes and returned back the original blue. "If there's anything that has to do with the imperial house, I don't want to deal with it."
"Baka, you know you can't refuse the imperial orders…" Rin rolled her eyes. Miku felt Len's grip on her wrist tighten even more, and she yelped in pain.
"Can you let go now?" She asked.
Len released her arm and stare into her teal eyes. "Stop doing idiotic things. It's only going to bring trouble to me."
"I didn't know that dog was-," Miku protested. She felt Kaito's hand on her head, and he kindly patted it.
"Len, she didn't know anything, okay? Give her a break. Miku, it's fine. Just be careful about your surroundings next time." Kaito advised. Miku couldn't do anything but frowned. She didn't want something like this to happen again. It almost cost her life!
"Kaito, stop spoiling her…" Len growled.
"I'm not spoiling her, you bastard. I'm just being kind, which wouldn't kill you to do the same," Kaito snapped back angrily. The two gods were about to fight if it weren't for Rei, Luka, and Gakupo to rush over to them.
"Is everyone alright?" Gakupo asked in concern. He looked over to Miku, who just nodded. He sighed in relief, grateful everything was alright.
"Are there any injuries?" Luka asked to make sure. Miku just shook her head, telling her she was fine already.
"What the hell happened?" Rei asked, one of his eyebrows quirked up in confusion. When he found out no one would reply, he realized it was the wrong question to ask.
Len noticed that Ted was coming towards their direction. He couldn't help but glance and scowled. "What do you want?" He asked irritably.
"I told you I'm here on Imperial duties," Ted said smoothly. Miku stared back and forth at the two men. What was imperial duties? They seem to talk about it a lot so far, and it must be really important too.
"What does the old man want?" Len demanded impatiently. He saw a smirk formed on Ted's lip, and he frowned even more.
"The Emperor is summoning you to his kingdom, Len." Ted answered. His gaze then went over to the confuse girl with jade hair. "He also wants you to bring along his newest wife." The whole companion stared in wide eyes, shocked. Why was she going? They all stared at her direction suddenly that Miku felt uneasy. Just what was going on now?
