Chapter 15:
"Everyone, I have to tell you all something important." Zest stated urgently, getting the teens attention. "This plane will be attacked at some point during our journey."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
Zest felt the plan start to move, which prompted her to open the shutter on her window, watching the ground 'move' as the teens were struck silent.
Once the plane was safely in the air, allowing them to move around, Zest covered her ears.
"WHAT!" all but the Huang siblings shouted.
"Zest," Ling-ling said seriously as she approached the adult. "What do you mean by we are going to be attacked on this plane."
Zest rolled her eyes.
"It's as I said, we will be under attack." Zest stated as she looked at the teens, eyeing Moka and Kokoa's jewels in the process. 'I should hide them… but how to take them away.'
"How do you know this?" Kurumu asked in a panic, her voice bouncing off the walls, making it louder than normal.
Zest got up and stood in the middle of the plane before sitting down again, this time on the floor of the luxury jet.
"I have friends in high places." Zest replied simply. "I work with dangerous people, so I tend to be a bit cautious."
Zest crossed her legs, hands on her knees.
She straightened her back, closing her eyes before clapping her hands.
Everyone felt Zest's magic flood the plane, coating it as she started to levitate a few inches off the ground.
"I see." Ling-ling muttered. "Don't worry, this is a precaution spell. If anyone she doesn't know enters or touches this plane, we will know."
Fang-fang sighed in relief.
"Oh, that's good." He said before Ling-ling pinched his cheek and tightly pulled. "OW, SHISTER…"
"You could do this too if you paid attention to mom's teachings," She stated sternly with her ever-present scary smile. "Or at least, if you were any good."
Fang-fang whimpered, going to the corner to sulk as everyone unsurely started to relax.
Moka walked to the small bar, sitting down as she helped herself to a non-alcoholic drink.
'This is stressful.' Moka thought sadly as she drank. 'Outer… I hope you are alright?'
'I am, just worried about everyone else.' The Rosary replied, lifting up a bit as Outer Moka spoke from within. 'That includes you as well.'
Moka smiled sincerely as her other personality was not harmfully affected by this situation.
Forty-five minutes passed safely, the plane over the ocean, where Hokuto and Kiria on a boat.
"So, you had that thing hide on the plane incase anyone tried that…" Kiria asked Hokuto as he watched the plane with binoculars.
"Shut up, Kiria." Hokuto ordered as he typed away at a laptop that rested on his legs. "Our orders are to keep Akashiya's group away from China. If so, then we will have to hand that mission over to Shuzen."
Kiria laughed like a little kid.
"Right, right…" he chuckled with a smile, his fox and toad like eyes holding a glint of amusement.
On the Plane…
Zest, in her meditated stance, didn't move a muscle during the forty-five minutes, giving ease to all who were present, which ere Mizore, Kokoa, Ling-ling.
Tsukune, Kurumu, Yukari, Moka, and Fang-fang were in the other room.
"Man, this is really handy." Mizore mentioned as she watched the rabbit/vampire. "What kind of technique is it?"
"It's a sealing power." Ling-ling explained as she drank a martini. "It seals this plane from outside forces as long as Zest stays focused."
"But Zest would not even need to worry about enemies." Kokoa spoke up, getting their attention. "She was trained by one of the Dark Lords so no matter who the enemy, Zest will win."
"True, grandfather has trained her very well." Ling-ling stated.
"Wait, Touhou Fuhai is your grandfather?" Kokoa asked in shock.
"Yes." Ling-ling replied with a giggle. "She is just as, if not more powerful than I am. And she is of the living."
Kokoa shuddered at Ling-ling's tone.
Before anything else, they heard Kurumu scream, prompting them to run to the other room, leaving Zest alone.
"WHAT'S WRONG!" Ling-ling asked in worry.
"No, just surprised." Kurumu stated as a strange white furred rabbit looking creature was in her breasts, perversely touching her. "Hey, stop…"
Suddenly, the creature jumped from Kurumu's luscious body and hopped into the other room.
"What the fuck is that?" Mizore asked as she turned her hands to ice, warry of this creature. "And when did it get here? Shouldn't have Zest's seal gone off?"
Ling-ling realized what Mizore said and with the Snow-Woman, sliced it into pieces… only for those pieces to shiver before they turned into mini-clones of the creature.
"Fuck, it's a gremlin!" Yukari shouted as she recognized its power as she summoned her flying tarot cards. "Little creatures that sabotage planes and other types of machinery."
"GOOD LUCK KILLING ME!" the gremlins cackled as they were cut down more by the teens, making more clones.
Kokoa, cutting down four in one swipe with Ko as a sword, grunted as the Gremlins started to eat through the plane, eating a hole into the roof.
The more gremlins they cut the more they multiplied.
"DAMN IT!" Fang-fang shouted in irritation as he defended himself wit a sword made of Chinese coins. "THEY WON'T STOP!"
Kokoa tripped, the gremlins ignoring her for Zest, a perverse glint in their eyes as they started to drool, which Kokoa noticed.
"DON'T YOU TOUCH ZEST YOU PERVERTS!" Kokoa shouted angrily as she rushed forward, Ko becoming a club, allowing Kokoa to smash them into the floor, still damaging the plane.
Kokoa gasped heavily before she was pounced by the gremlin clones.
"DAMN IT!" Kokoa screamed before the gremlins popped. "What…"
"Moka, you did it!" Kurumu cheered with Yukari.
Moka climbed back into the plane, her shirt removed to reveal her bra.
"It was… nothing…" She said before going red as Tsukune stupidly stared at her exposed body.
She shuddered, covering herself before she angrily glared at him.
"Know your place." Moka stated before kicking Tsukune outside the head and into Zest, knocking her out of her trance and allowing the plane to take a sudden nose dive.
"FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!" Everyone chanted.
Zest grabbed Ling-ling and Fang-fang, both nodding.
"SUMMON!"
Ocean…
Hokuto and Kiria watched as the plane crashed into the water, smoke emitting from it.
"A-are you g-g-going to kill… me…" The gremlin, who was soaked in sea water, asked fearfully as it shivered in the corner.
"Of course not." Kiria said with a smile. "You did take down the plane, so you…"
"They are still alive." Hokuto interrupted as he looked through his binoculars. "Look, above the plane."
He handed the binoculars to Kiria and he let out an amused sound.
"They summoned birds." He chortled with a smirk before he laughed. "That's funny. I forgot those Huang kids could summon magical beasts."
Hokuto's eyes narrowed but stayed silent as he opened his computer.
The gremlin eeked in fear when the leader of Fairy Tale appeared on screen.
"The mission… failed." Hokuto replied in disappointment before he continued his explanation.
Meanwhile…
"SO?" Mizore screamed to be heard over the loud winds whipping across her face. "HOW MUCH LONGER UNTIL WE GET TO CHINA?"
"OH, NOT LONG." Ling-ling replied with a smirk. "JUST ANOTHER FOUR DAYS."
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT!"
"IT'S FINE BECAUSE I AM ALREADY DEAD!" Ling-ling laughed as Zest let loose a giggle as she sat behind Kokoa.
"Kokoa…" Zest whispered as she held the young vampire's waist, giving it a gentle squeeze. "Thank you for protecting me."
Kokoa was surprised, eyes widening a bit before she started to tremble in happiness.
"No problem." She replied, Zest smiling as she hugged her back, kissing her head.
Fairy Tale HQ, Science Division…
Gyokuro smirked as she finished the theoretical method of unsealing Alucard. She leaned into her chair, stretching her arms above her head as she glanced at Naruto's crystalized form.
'Akasha…' Gyokuro thought as she looked up at the ceiling. 'Just thinking about you, our history… it sickens me…'
She spun in her chair, the past coming to mind.
Flashback…
Gyokuro, much younger and longer hair, smiled happily as she carried her newborn daughter, Kahlua, in her arms as she sat in a rocking chair.
Kahlua looked around, eyes wide in wonder before she sneezed, jolting herself to the point of crying.
"Oh, there, there…" Gyokuro said soothingly as she rocked her daughter.
She looked up as she heard the door open, revealing Issa… and a woman Gyokuro didn't know.
"Issa, is this a new nanny? I thought the one we had was…" Gyokuro started to say before she was silenced when Issa held his hand up.
"Gyokuro, this is Akasha Bloodriver." He introduced the pink haired vampire, who smiled meekly. "She is going to be living here… As a mistress."
Gyokuro… was livid.
"Excuse me… but did you say… as a mistress?" Gyokuro asked shakily, her bangs covering her eyes.
"Yes, she is…" Issa stated before Gyokuro stood up, tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
"YOU ARE SERIOUSLY BRINGING A WOMAN INTO OUR BED!" Gyokuro screamed.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Kahlua screamed in fear from Gyokuro's shouting.
The nanny entered and took the screaming babe from Gyokuro, leaving the three vampires in the room.
"Yes." Issa said calmly, not feeling fear or any regret for catching lust for Akasha, which would eventually turn to love.
"But…" Gyokuro gasped as she tried to keep her emotions in check, but failed as her throat became dry and scratchy and her eyes burned. "You have me…"
"I know, and I still love you, Gyokuro…"
"How can you say that!" Gyokuro shouted, pointing at him. "You say you love me, but you still want this whore to bed with?"
"Of course."
Gyokuro's heart broke.
Her love didn't stop, but her trust shattered and her anger maxed.
"If you want her, then I am leaving!" Gyokuro threatened, mentally praying that Issa would reconsider with these words.
"If you do, Kahlua will be staying here with me." Issa replied, seemingly not affected by her threat.
Gyokuro emotionally collapsed as she stormed out, tearfully glaring at Akasha as she passed, shoving her with her elbow as she went to her room and packed her bags.
"Gyokuro…" Issa said as he stopped Gyokuro from getting in the car.
Her heart fluttered.
Hope swelling.
'Please, let him be remorseful and want me to stay.' She begged mentally as she turned to face Issa.
"Kahlua still needs her mother, so please, whenever you can, come by and be there for Kahlua." Issa asked with a bow.
Gyokuro shook.
'He still wants me around…' She thought angrily, gripping her hands. 'But not as his wife, but for our daughter…'
"I'll come by when I can. I'll call you ahead of time." Gyokuro replied coldly before she got in, the driver driving away, tears streaming down her face as she left.
Six Months later…
Gyokuro's eyebrow twitched as she entered Kahlua's nursery to see Naruto and Kahlua napping.
"What is this?" Gyokuro asked Zest.
"This… is Naruto… Lady Gyokuro." Zest replied nervously. "H-he is the son of Akasha's friend… Kushina…"
"Get rid of him." Gyokuro ordered as she turned to Zest, who was shocked. "You heard me, get rid of him!"
"What is going on?"
"Lady Akasha." Zest said in relief as she bowed.
"Akasha, why did you allow this flea ridden mongrel near MY daughter? He smells like he is part human, meaning he is even more trash, so he IS to be thrown out like garbage!" Gyokuro demanded as she jabbed Akasha's chest aggressively.
Akasha took this verbal and physical abuse, but kept a calm demeanor.
"My friend passed away, so as Naruto's Godmother, I will take care of him." Akasha stated calmly. "He will be raised in this house, whether you like it or not."
Gyokuro and Akasha locked eyes for a few seconds before Gyokuro scoffed.
"Your desire for peace among humans and yokai is never going to happen." Gyokuro stated aggressively as she started to storm out. "You are nothing but a silly child living in a fantasy. Wake up and move on with your life."
Four Years Later…
Naruto and Kahlua (Age 4) were standing before Akasha as she sat on a couch, holding Moka.
"She is adorable." Naruto said as his tail swayed back and forth.
Kahlua had tears of joy streaming down her cheeks as she wanted to smother Moka with love.
"I am finally a big sister…" She cried happily.
Akasha adjusted tapped the cushions beside her, prompting the children to sit next to her.
"Be careful of Moka's head." Akasha said carefully as she gently handed Moka to Naruto and Kahlua, both of them carrying Moka.
As Akasha and the children played, Gyokuro leaned behind a pillar, scowling as she gripped her arms, grinding her teeth in irritation.
One year later…
"Kokoa Shuzen…" Gyokuro said weakly as she held her newborn daughter. "I love you…"
Issa smiled as he sat next to his wife.
"She will be a beauty, like you." Issa complimented as he stroked Kokoa's cheek, making her giggle.
Gyokuro felt… happiness in this moment.
'Have I… returned to the past…' Gyokuro thought as she rested, smiling. 'Have I returned to the point where all of his love is mine?'
Sadly, Gyokuro's dreams were smashed into paste as she realized she couldn't get the attention she desired back, so she took Kokoa with her, refusing to let Akasha 'poison' her youngest with talk of peace and coexistence.
Ten Years Later…
Gyokuro was livid as she saw the children lined up.
It was a day before Moka's Tenth Birthday.
'The fox, a random Chinese girl, My darling Kahlua, Akasha's ovary spawn, and my dear Kokoa.' Gyokuro thought as she looked at Zest (Age 26), Naruto (Age 15), Akua (Age 15), Kahlua (Age 14 1/2), Moka (Age 9), and Kahlua (Age 8 1/2).
"Who is she?" Gyokuro asked as she leered at Akua.
"This is Akua, Lady Gyokuro." Naruto introduced, Akua bowing slightly without taking her eyes off of Gyokuro.
Naruto was smacked in the face hard enough to make blood spray from his nose as he was taken off of his feet and landed on his back, clutching his face.
"I didn't allow you to speak, fox." Gyokuro growled.
"NA…" Kokoa and Kahlua started to say before Gyokuro took their hands gently in hers.
"Come along, children." She said happily, not giving them a choice as she pulled them into the castle as Zest, Akua, and Moka helped Naruto.
Gyokuro was respectful to Issa and begrudgingly nice to Akasha, her disgust and disdain not hidden.
The day passed with no extra issues as Naruto's nose being fixed within a few hours.
The next day went by fast, everyone in the castle happily preparing for Moka's party.
All except Gyokuro, who didn't leave her room, several bottles of wine in her room, where she unceremoniously drank from the bottle.
'Stupid little bitch…' Gyokuro thought as she tossed the nearly empty bottle across the room, shattering when it hit the wall.
She drank herself into oblivion, waking up the next day as the sun rays peeked through the curtains hit her in the face.
With a massive headache, Gyokuro got dressed and went to see Kahlua… only to hear more people.
"ZEST!" Gyokuro heard Kahlua shout, before there was a yip sound and a clinking sound. "What are you doing in here?"
"I was sleeping, if that answers your question." Zest responded
"IT DOESN'T!" Kahlua shouted which made Gyokuro open the door so see Kahlua grappling with Zest and Naruto on the bed with them.
"And what is going on here?"
Flashback End…
Gyokuro shook her head in disgust.
"I hate you, Akasha, fox." Gyokuro growled as she spat on the sealed being. "I don't care what Kahlua thinks, she doesn't love you. You will never touch my daughter if you are still alive."
Meanwhile…
Kahlua held Mei-feng high into the air, making the young hybrid giggle and laugh with excitement.
'Akua…' Kahlua thought as she put Mei-feng on the ground. 'Please, be safe…'
Akua, meanwhile, stood before the leader of Fairy Tale.
The Masked King.
Well, stood before a massive screen with his face actually.
"Akua Shuzen."
"Yes, Your Highness." Akua said as she bowed.
"Your next mission assignment… go to China, and bring Moka Akashiya to me, alive. She is needed along with the Jewels she and Kokoa Shuzen wear." The King stated coldly.
Akua held no fear as she was given her order.
"And what of those who would get in my way?"
"Kill them."
Chapter 15, DONE!
New Cover Art for this story. Its of Zest, Kahlua, and Akua in wedding outfits. If you are on a phone and can't see it, never fear, because the photo is up on deviantart. The account you want is Boo1194.
THIS was a very fun chapter to write, getting into the mind of Gyokuro.
Because I originally wanted this chapter to be focused on the Gremlin and then the Greeting to the Huang home sections of the manga, but I had this idea strike my brain like lightning.
And yes, it hurt like hell.
What do you guys think? Good, bad? Let me know with a review, even if you disliked it.
Also, if you guys are fans of Werefox of Bael, I have posted a story that is a small snip-it into the past of Naruto's family. If you like Werefox, then i feel you guys might like this one.
