Chapter 10: Love Conquers All
Gigi had cried so much that day. So much to fill a ocean it felt. Peter's lifeless body laid there in her arms. Gigi's tears splattered onto his torn and tattered body. "Oh Peter...." cries Gigi as she lays her head on his chest and wept. A dark shadow loomed over her.
"Why pretty mistress, why do you weep?" asks a voice from above her. Gigi looked up quickly to find a handsome man with cat eyes, black hair, black attire and rather tall. Gigi then looked back down at Peter. "I weep because my beloved Peter is gone," says Gigi as more tears came to her eyes. The man knelt next to her. He patted her on the back.
Gigi paid him no attention for the time. "Peter was a fool, you should be glad he is dead," says the man. Gigi looked at the man with a annoyed grimace. "How dare you say that about Peter!" yells Gigi. The man looks at Gigi. "Didn't you know he tried to fool the all powerful Kouchou?" asks the man. "Yes and it was rightful of him to try it, it was evil of Kouchou to want 200 princesses for his own selfish pleasure," growls Gigi.
The man stands up. "Well Gigi, you sure seem to love this fool," says the man. "I do with all of my heart," says Gigi as she looks back to Peter. "Well you, pretty mistress, are being a fool yourself, I am Kouchou and you love a fool!" says Kouchou. Gigi doesn't answer, she still looks at Peter's lifeless body.
Kouchou grabbed Gigi harshly by the wrist and pulled her up. "Let me go you brut!" screams Gigi as she struggled to pull her wrist from his strong grip. Kouchou took his other hand and put it behind Gigi's back and pulled her to him. Gigi struggled and wiggled to try and escape.
"Just give up, Gigi, give into my power!" says Kouchou. "Never! I will never give into you! You murdered Peter!" screams Gigi. "Forget Peter and become my Queen of darkness! We will rule over this universe together!" booms Kouchou. "Never!" yells Gigi as she continues to struggle.
Kouchou throws her to the ground. "You still love that fool, that pitiful weak fool!" says Kouchou with disgust. "Just go away and leave me here to die," says Gigi. Kouchou looks at her. "You would rather die than move on to a new man?" asks Kouchou. "Yes, now go away!" says Gigi sternly. "Why should such a beautiful youth be wasted on the death of a fool," says Kouchou as he kneels next to her again.
Gigi scooted away from him. Kouchou suddenly pushes her to the ground. "Ugh stop it!" says Gigi. Kouchou puts his mouth near her ear. His fangs shine lightly. Gigi notices the light from the corner of her eye . "Be quiet and listen to me or else I will put you to sleep so you will never die," says Kouchou. Gigi stopped and closed her eyes.
"Now, I don't see any sense in a pretty thing like you dying, so let me help you," says Kouchou into her ear. Gigi grimaces. Kouchou moves up so his face is merely a few inches from hers. Gigi kept her eyes closed. Kouchou picked her up some in his arms. He licked his lips. Gigi started to shiver. Kouchou pulled his cape over her. He pulled her closer to him.
Gigi opened her eyes. "Why does this feel familiar? It seems like I have known Kouchou forever but no I haven't. No I have to get away!" thought Gigi to herself. Kouchou made his move. His ice cold lips touched Gigi's. Gigi struggled and pushed away. "Stop it! No matter what you do or say I will never love you! I only love Peter! Don't you get it!?" screams Gigi.
Kouchou smiled. "Well, my dear, you have passed the test," says Kouchou. Gigi stared at him. "What the heck are you talking about!?" demands Gigi. Kouchou stood up. "You love your Peter dearly. You are now ready for your paradise," says Kouchou. Gigi still stared at him in confusion. Kouchou walked towards her. He put his hand out.
Gigi felt a tremendous change in her body. She could not move. "Ugh what's happening.. To my.. body!?" cries Gigi as she tries to move. Kouchou picks her up. He immediately kisses her again. "No! Stop!" thought Gigi to herself for she could not move. As Kouchou kissed her, the world around them changed. The rubble disappeared. The dirty floor turned into beautiful marble.
Walls appeared with their wonderful paintings, mirrors and flowers. A ceiling appeared with its magnificent engravings. Gigi could merely stare at the scene. Peter's body disappeared from the floor. His dagger Gigi has slipped into her jean pocket was floating. It glowed with its blue light. Kouchou and Gigi were picked up off the ground. Kouchou grasped her tightly as the dagger's magic enveloped her.
She was then in a lovely dress of a flowing white and silver material. In the light it shined the colors of the rainbow. The dagger floated to Kouchou. It slashed him over the shoulder. He moaned softly but still kissed Gigi. His blood slowly flowed out of the wound. The green substance oozed like slime from a swamp.
As it spewed, Kouchou's overall image seemed to lighten. His cape disappeared. His outfit turned green in color. The familiar gloves and shoes appeared on his hands and feet. His black hair waved in the wind of the changes, its color turning to brown. Then out of the darkness, his face changed.
Gigi gasped. Her body became un paralyzed as she was let down. Gigi stared at who stood before her. "P... Peter!!!" cries Gigi. Kouchou or now Peter nodded. "Yes Gigi, this time it is really me,"says Peter. Gigi's eyes watered. "You.. You were Kouchou!?" asks Gigi. "He was part of me.. He was my evil self, Gigi but now he is gone, your love vanquished him," says Peter as he picks up her hand.
Gigi put her hand over her mouth in a gasp. Peter knelt and kissed her hand and then stood up. "Why did you fool me?" asked Gigi with slight anger. "I wanted to make absolutely sure, Gigi, that you loved only me, and would be faithful," says Peter. Gigi looked away. "You couldn't just trust my saying I love you?" asks Gigi. "The evil made me not trust you, Gigi, and when you left... my evil over took me, to fool you into thinking I was dead..." says Peter as he reached for her. Gigi looked at the ground silently.
"I am sorry Gigi, for putting you through so much," says Peter. Gigi looked back at him. "I could never stay mad at you Peter, I love you too much," says Gigi. Peter smiled and wrapped his arms around her. The two embraced. "I love you too Gigi, I love you so much, I can't live without you," says Peter as he picks her up and he carries her out to a balcony. He set her down. Gigi gazed up at his eyes. Peter kissed her passionately as the moon above shown down on them. And so this tale of tragedy and love ends, and what happened further to Peter and Gigi... is another story.
