Nightmares of the King!
Epilogue
"Chibi-Usa!" Roiyaru yelled.
"Get her!" Zachary ordered.
"I didn't know being apart of the king's court came with babysitting!" Kasai shouted as the pink-haired toddler ran around breaking another vase.
"Tomoshibi and I will go this way," Roiyaru said.
"Then Kasai and I will go that way!" Zachary told him.
As Kasai and Zachary continued looking throughout the whole palace for little Chibi-Usa, Roiyaru and Tomoshibi went outside the castle gates.
"What makes you think she came out here?" Roiyaru asked.
"I didn't say she did," Tomoshibi said turning a little red around the cheeks. It was winter, and the two went out without as much as a coat.
"Then why did you..." Roiyaru smiled. "We can't just leave."
"Let's just call it a little break..." Tomoshibi sighed trying to warm himself up. Roiyaru put his arm around the young man and brought him close. They walked on until they heard a little voice calling from behind a corner a little ways off from the palace.
"Roiyaru-kun, Tomoshibi-kun!" a little voice sang.
"There she is!" the two exclaimed. Running behind the corner of the street, they found little Chibi-Usa at the feet of a sea-green haired woman.
"Hello, have you been keeping Small Lady?" Tomoshibi asked the woman.
"Oh no, she just ran to me." The woman replied with a cool smile. Her green eyes were shimmering in the crystal-night sky.
Chibi-Usa shook her head. "Nuh-uh, you found me!"
"Or did you find me?" the woman giggled. Tomoshibi didn't know why, but he was fascinated by the woman. She wore long dark-green business slacks and a black blouse.
Looking at the attention Tomoshibi gave the woman, Roiyaru announced that it was time to go. "Well, we'll be on our way. Thank you for taking care of her." Roiyaru said with Chibi-Usa in his arms. "Don't run away like that again... Tomoshibi, are you coming?"
Tomoshibi nodded. "Arigatou," he said bowing at the woman. "I'll see you later."
"I believe fate has a way of working things out." She smiled. As she watched the two men leave with the little girl, she pulled out a cell phone. "In just a few more centuries," the woman said to the person on the other end. "Our jewel will be able to contend and beat the Silver Crystal and Crystal Tokyo will be ours!" The woman laughed evilly and maniacally – there was no doubt, Crystal Tokyo was in for the fight of their lives.
