From Rivals to Lovers
Pairing: Jahy x Kyouko x Druj
Genre: Humor/Romance
Disclaimer: I do not own The Great Jahy will not be defeated or any of its characters.
"I love Jahy-sama very much!" Druj declares while standing up from her seat inside the usual restaurant she and Jahy meet occasionally. "I always remain faithful to her as her TRUE underling!"
"It is I who loves Jahy-kun more!" Kyouko shouts, also standing up. "She told me she would shower me with love from now on! She actually said she loved me!"
"Well you know what!? You don't know what it's like who gets to live with something that you dislike!" Druj says. "You have no idea what it's like to be relied on when you have nothing left!"
"Actually, I do!" Kyouko strikes back. "Don't tell me you know everything!"
Child Jahy is sitting there, dead panning at this awkward conversation.
"Why, oh why, do they always fight over me like this...?" She groans.
The Great Jahy is in quite a pickle. How can she solve this unhealthy rivalry?
"Tell me then!" Kyouko points a finger. "When was the last time she told YOU that she loved you?"
"It doesn't matter as long as she needs me as her underling!" Druj says. "My love for her deep inside my heart is enough!"
"Ha! That means I win then!" Kyouko gives a triumphant smile.
"No it doesn't!"
"Yes, it does!"
"No, it doesn't!"
Jahy cannot take this anymore and slams her hands on the table. "THAT'S ENOUGH FROM YOU IDIOTS!!"
Kyouko and Druj stop bickering and turn toward their tiny friend.
"Listen!" Child Jahy says as she hops on top of the table. "If you two are going to fight over some silly shit, then maybe you should talk it over instead! Every time the two of you meet, you do nothing but stare daggers at one another! I'm getting very tired of that! You two need to make up and get over it!"
"B-but...Jahy-kun...!" Kyouko says. "This woman...you never told her you loved her, so..."
"So what!?" Jahy snaps, scaring Kyouko. "My personal feelings for Druj are just the same as yours. Don't get the wrong idea!"
Druj blushes and cups a hand to her mouth. "Jahy-sama...!"
"Jahy-kun..." Kyouko's expression softens
"I'm leaving," Child Jahy hops off the table. "I'm not talking to either of you until you two straighten up. Got it?" With that, the tanned demon walks away, leaving the two rivals fall silent.
Druj and Kyouko sit down at their seats, looking down at their laps. They then look up at each other, but then turn away with a huff.
Foolish! Druj thinks. How can I trust this...this woman? She may be a powerful magical girl, she isn't nearly as powerful as I am. She doesn't know Jahy-sama fully. I have been with her way longer than this lowly human.
There is no way I can trust this woman, Kyouko thinks. Jahy-kun did not say her love for her as she did for me. And I confessed my love for her as well. That's how love works right?
The two glance at each other once again. This time, their expressions soften a little but still wear soft glares.
"You wanna..." Druj starts, but bites her lip and clenches her fists on her black pencil skirt.
"Do what?" Kyouko tilts her head in confusion.
"Well...do you want to talk in a more comfortable environment?" Druj offers.
"S-sure," Kyouko replies. "Jahy-kun wanted us to talk it over so..."
"Yeah..." Druj nods.
After Druj pays for the food, the two head out to the local park and sit on the bench about a few feet apart. They don't make eye contact with each other for a little bit and then they glance at one another. None of them have something to say at first.
"So..." Kyouko says. "Ummm..."
"Yeah, um..." Druj says.
They cannot say anything proper to say since they have been bickering all the time. Jahy wants them to get along so that she won't have to deal with all of that. But what can they do or say?
"Listen..." Kyouko says, clenching her fists on her uniform skirt. "You and I don't know each other all that well. I can understand that."
"It seems like our love for Jahy-sama has blinded us into actually trying to get to know one another," Druj says.
"What were we thinking?" Kyouko says. "I mean...you and I have been gathering mana crystals more and more. And I feel terribly sorry for what I did."
"How can I trust you?" Druj says.
"Jahy-kun is my friend, she trusts me now," Kyouko says, gesturing toward herself as she faces the short haired rich woman. "She trusts you, too. So if she trusts both of us, surely we can trust each other. We can work together in gathering the mana crystals so that we can restore the Dark Realm faster. Sound like a deal?"
Druj thinks about it for a moment. Kyouko does have a point. Restoring the Dark Realm is the main goal. There shouldn't be any reason to make it a competition.
"Very well," Druj says as she holds out her hand. "From now on, we will be comrades, not rivals. We will restore the Dark Realm together."
Kyouko nods happily and gently grips the short haired woman's hand. "Then it's settled. Thanks, Druj."
"N-no problem...K-Kyouko-san," Druj blushes but turns away to hide it.
*Next Day*
Adult Jahy smiles at seeing Kyouko and Druj together at the pub where she works at. She puts her hands on her hips, triumphantly.
"That wasn't so hard now, was it~?" Adult Jahy says. "You two just needed to talk it over~"
"Y-yeah..." Druj says, blushing.
"Which means you two are lovers now!" Jahy says.
"WHAT!?" Kyouko and Druj shout in unison. They look at each other and then at Jahy.
"You heard me~!" The tanned demon says. "If you two were to be my girlfriends, then it's only fair to have you two be each other's lover. How cool is that~?"
"THAT'S NOT COOL AT ALL!" Kyouko and Druj shout in unison.
"Ara~" Chisa, the Boss Lady, peeks from the kitchen and sees the cuteness from Druj and Kyouko. "Did I hear lovers~?"
"Please don't, Nee-chan..." Ryou, the Landlady says.
"Yuuuup~!" Jahy gestures toward her underling and best friend. "Introducing my favorite couple! Or what do the humans call it~?"
"Ah, an old married couple~?" Chisa says with a finger raised.
"WE'RE NOT A COUPLE!" Druj and Kyouko cry out.
"Awwww, Hy-chan is so open~!" Chisa says with a hand cupped to her cheek. "Won't you think so, Ryou-chan~?"
"Not like I care..." Ryou sighs. "Ja-ko can love who she loves. As long as it doesn't involve me..."
"Really now~?" Chisa steps toward her younger sister. "Don't you think WE should experience love one day~?" Her large breasts press against the blonde's humble ones.
"I-I have no idea what you're talking about..."
"Oh I am sure you do~"
Now that all water is under the bridge, The Great Jahy accomplished in attempting Druj and the Magical Girl to get along. And what's this with the Boss and the Landlady? They seem to be getting ready to go to the forbidden route.
