Chapter 4: Kouchou
Gigi walked over to the bed she saw that morning and sat on it. She then fell backwards and looked up at the marvelous ceiling. The man stood above her. "It's a nice ceiling isn't it," he said out of their silence. "Yes, its stunning," said Gigi as she focused on each of the cupids.
He sits down next to her. Gigi sits up and faces him. He looks at her. "Something wrong?" he asked her. "May I guess now?" she asked him. "Alright, sounds good to me," he said. Gigi stared hard at him. She then picked up his hand.
"Only one man ever was able to fly, to make a world as vast as this, and to show such creativity... it's you, isn't it Peter," says Gigi in a soft passionate voice. "Yes, Gigi, it is I," says Peter with a proud smile. Gigi then looked away in a pout like way. "Why couldn't you have told me in the first place?" she whined. He put his hands on her shoulders. "I wanted to make absolutely sure it was you, Gigi," he said.
She faced him again. "Well there is only one of me," she said with a cute smile. Peter laughed. "But just I thought you said I could always find you and you could always find me with ease, and yet you have been looking for me for a long time?" asked Gigi. "When you were reborn a human, I lost my mental connection to you, that's why I had to send out finders to bring you to me. I am sorry it was a rather brutal way to," apologized Peter.
"I am glad you did, if not I never would have found you again," says Gigi trying to make him feel better about what he did. "If you say so, Gigi," said Peter. "Now how about we take that old cloak off hum?" she said as she reached her hands up. She slowly pulled his hood down.
The face she recognized from so long ago was there, smiling at her with bright blue eyes. Gigi's heart sped up again. Peter moved closer to her while staring into her eyes. "Gigi, I know you know I love you but..." started Peter. "Do I love you?" she asked finishing his sentence. "Well, yeah," he said slowly.
Gigi looked down at her hands as her cheeks blazed. "I am pretty sure I do, why else would I feel like this?" she answered, her fingers getting knotty. Peter put both of his hands on the sides of her head.
He tilted her head up and kissed her. Gigi closed her eyes as her emotions changed rapidly. Peters mouth upon hers felt like a soft butterfly upon a flower petal. Peter moved his arms around her and pulled her right up to his chest. Gigi could feel his heart beating. Her breathing slowed as her heart began to beat the same as his.
"Our hearts beat as one, your flushed cheeks brighten my day.." Gigi's song suddenly seemed to fill the room as they both sat there, not moving at all, enjoying one another's company in silence. Peter withdrew and hugged Gigi. Gigi sighed. "I love you Gigi," whispers Peter into her ear. "I love you too Peter," replied Gigi as she hugged him tightly as if he would float away if she let go.
The world around them seemed to change. Just her and Peter were all the world. Suddenly a holographic image appeared before them. A huge face appeared on it.
"Sureibu have you completed what I have asked you of yet?" asked the monstrous face. "Not yet, Kouchou, I am almost done," said Peter, standing up quickly and bowing. Gigi looked at them in confusion. The face then suddenly popped out of the holographic as a body. The figure bore a whip.
"Is that one of my items right there?" demanded the figure. "I umm.. No your lordship, she's just a servant," stuttered Peter, keeping low to the figure. "Sure she is, a servant in fine clothing? Ha I doubt that! I told you to keep all of my items virgin! You may not have your fun with one!" yelled the figure at Peter. Peter bit his lip. The figure cracked his whip. It harshly lashed Peter on the back. Peter grimaced in pain as he knelt to his kneels.
"Peter!" cried Gigi as she was about to stand. "Gigi stay there," said Peter, putting his hand up in a stop motion. The figure looked at Gigi. "She had better be with my collection when you have completed it, sureibu," hissed the figure as he absorbed back into the holograph and vanished. Gigi dropped down to Peter. "Are you okay, Peter?" asks Gigi with worry.
Peter gives her a reassuring wink. "I will be alright," he said. Gigi looked at the scraps along his back, the blood dripping slowly off his green tunic. She helped him stand. "Your not alright you little fool. Your bleeding!" scolded Gigi. Peter managed to laugh. "Its just a scratch," he joked.
The little girls with purple hair rushed to him from no where. "We have to heal you master!" they all cry as they pick him up and rush him off to the bathroom. Gigi follows. The little girls strip Peter of his cloths and throw him in the marble tub Gigi had been in that morning. Peter moans some as the water touches his wounds. The water turns red from his lost blood.
The little girls clean his wounds. Gigi watched as they helped him out of the tub. The little girls went behind him and started bandaging up his wounds. Gigi sat in front of him and picked up his hand and kissed it. She then looked up at him. His eyes probed her. "Who was that man?" she asked Peter.
He looked away. "He is my master, he gave me extra power and my servants to help me find you, but this was all in return that I create him a collection of princesses for his own pleasure," explained Peter with a shiver. Gigi stared at him in disbelief. "You aren't really going to do that to all those girls are you??" asks Gigi with concern.
"Never, that's why I was returning them after I checked them over," explained Peter. "Well good but..." started Gigi. "But what?" asked Peter. "How are you going to fulfill his bargain?" asked Gigi. Peter smiled some. "I have my ways," he said. Gigi looked at him. "Are you sure?" she asked, still worried. He ruffled her hair. "Trust me Gigi," he said and kissed her cheek as he stood up. Gigi stood up also. The little girls redressed Peter quickly.
"Thank you, Naorus," said Peter to the little girls. "It was our pleasure master!" say the Naorus as they run off. Peter takes Gigi's hand and looks at her eyes. "Are you sure you're going to be alright?" she asked. "You worry to much," he said with a smile as he picked her up. He floated into the air and carried her to her bed.
He laid her down gently as he landed on the ground. Then he pulls out his dagger and taps her head and the blue aura flows around her. When it disappears she is in a silky night gown. She smiled up at him. He bent over and kissed her gently.
"Good night, Gigi, I promise you we will be in our paradise soon, I love you," he said as he caressed his hand over her cheek. "I love you too Peter," she said in response as he drifted away from her.
The lights dimmed and she was alone in the huge room. Gigi stared up into the blackness of the vast empty space. She shivered, wishing Peter was still with her. "I hope Peter knows what he's doing with the bargain," thought Gigi to herself as she tried to sleep.
