Tsunaida kimi no te wo
(Your hand that I held)
Konichiwa mina-sama… oGenki desu ka? I'm a little sick with cough that's why this story is kind of late to be uploaded. Imagine…a person having cold in the middle of the summer how pathetic. Sigh…at least now I can write. I promised on the last chapter that I will have an OC profile and sorry to disappoint you but I will not be doing that now. I just watch the 5th OVA and I was like MOE over it… Because it's still Raw and my speakers are broken I don't really get if Sara is evil or good. I'll just wait for subs. But you can't deny Sara-chan is really a Bishonen and a really pretty one.
I am really excited about the upcoming 3rd Season. Anyway…I would like to thank those who review and had added this story in their Story Alerts and Favorites list. I am also honored that some people even added me on their Favorites Author

Please…tell me again…why did I do to receive such fate?
Shibuya Yuuri asked as she watches her mother happily picking colored underwear in a quite…vulgar shop."Yuuri-san…please raise your arms…" the attendant said.
Blushing slightly, she did so…
Now that she remembered what happened last night…
"…so basically…in order to save Yuu-chan's life…you turn him into a girl…" Shori said.
Murata smiled and said "Err…yeah"
The whole Shibuya family stared at her to Murata.
There was that silence that was so terrifying and so tense that it was deafening. Tense… yes…
But it was broken by Shibuya Miko aka Jennifer's squeal. She suddenly hugged Yuuri. The hug was so tight that it nearly suffocates her.
"Okuro…geffof m…Ca…Can't…bre…breathe!!"
But she suddenly stopped when she felt vibrations. Her mother is crying.
"God…Okuro I just became a girl…is that really something for you to cry?" Yuuri asked gently.
"No…Mama is happy…so happy…Yuu-chan is safe and now…Mama has a beautiful little girl…Mama is sooo happy!" Jennifer said. "Mama is so worried about you!"
Yuuri smiled and said "It is fine now…Mama…"
And she hugged her mother back.
"I can't believe I have now a cute younger sister" Shori said giving Yuuri a smile.
Shoma smiled too.
And Yuuri wondered…Is my family really is this weird. First they accepted that I was…well am… engaged to a boy now they easily accepted that I am now a girl sigh I guess it's just fine…
"Now can we eat curry? It's getting cold" Murata smiled.
"Yep, I'm getting hungry" Yuuri said as Jennifer released her.
"Mama is so happy! Tomorrow…Yuu-chan and I will got to a shopping spree"
"EH?"
So that's what happened…
Yuuri felt the tape measure on her chest and exhaled. She still can't accept that maybe…she'll wear one of this frilly, pink underwear.
"So… what's its size?" Jennifer asked excitedly.
"Four inches, Ma'am and still has rooms to grow" the attendant said.
"Kyaa… Yuu-chan is so blessed…"
"Okuro!"
"It's Mama, Yuu-chan and Miss…if I am not wrong…that would be Cup D?"
"Yes…Ma'am"
"Yuu-chan come over here and choose!" her mother said excitedly.
After what seemed to be eternity finally they decided. Well…Jennifer decided…
Sighing as she looked at her paper bag. She never, ever had anticipated that she'll come to that shop. She look at herself in the other shop mirror, she's wearing blue, denim pants (it was one that Jennifer use when she was still called as Hama no Jennifer) and a white t-shirt together with blue vest. And then finally she wore a blue cap and her hair is underneath it. All in all, she looks very boyish but it makes her cuter.
"Yuu-chan…we're finish now…I bought so many cute dresses and as you requested some sweat shirts and pants. But I also bough skirts and many…many things!" she said excitedly.
"Erm…thanks…I think"
She knew that it was a mistake to let her mother bought her new wardrobe but she has no experience in women clothing. And she wouldn't want to wipe the smile on her mother's face.
"Oku…I mean Mama… can I get a trim…my hair is quite getting unhandy"
Then, her mother stared at her strictly.
"Yuu-chan…I'll never let you cut your hair short."
"Now Mama…it's just to make it shorter…"
True, her hair is very long reaching on her thighs…
"Fine! Let's get you a cute new haircut!"
They stepped on a hair salon and the attendant happily asked.
"Hello, miss…getting a new haircut"
"Yes, please"
Yuuri sat on the chair and the attendant put a cloth on her front and removed her cap. The hair cutter gasped as the dark tresses fall almost on the floor.
"What a beautiful, soft, smooth hair…" the haircutter said touching her midnight black hair.
"It's a shame you want to cut it ma'am. Can I just give you a trim?" the hair cutter asked.
Yuuri smiled at the reflection of the woman.
"Yes…I would like it"
After several minutes…Yuuri stared at the mirror. Her hair now falls on her thighs though it loses quite a length but it is still quite long.
While Jennifer is paying, Yuuri looked at herself in the mirror. She can't believe how much she changed. From a typical high school baseball boy to the Royal Maou then now to a sweet high school/ Royal Demon King…erm Queen.
"Excuse me, Miss?" her haircutter asked.
She looked up and saw the woman. She is on her middle age but her eyes still shone with youth. She has wavy brown hair that is tied into a ponytail and her eyes are colored murky black. She looked at her name tag and saw the name 'Sakura'
"Hai…Sakura-san?"
The haircutter named Sakura smiled and said "You look extravagantly beautiful, young lady"
"Er, Arigato Gozaimasu"
This lady is quite strange. Well, isn't strange that some stranger would suddenly compliment you?
"Your eyes shone with innocence…it reminded me of someone I knew a long time ago" she said.
Yuuri looked at the lady as her eyes drifted. She seemed to be looking at something far away but she knew that the middle age woman is just reminiscing his past.
"May I inquire who is it?" Yuuri asked politely, curiosity driving her.
"My younger sister, you look quite like her" she said.
Yuuri stared at the lady named Sakura to her mother who is still on the end of the line. I guess it wouldn't hurt just to talk she thought.
But suddenly, the old woman took her hand and put something on it. She closed it again and smiled.
"It used to belong to my sister, she gave it to me but I knew it would suit you best…" she said.
She looks at her palm and saw a barrette. It was old but it seemed to be polished and shined every night. It was made of gold and shaped like a lily flower. Then the very flower has three blue diamonds on the edge, and a quite larger red one on the top. The leaf has green emeralds and the stalk has white brilliant cut diamond.
"It's beautiful…" Yuuri admired.
"Yes, that's why I know it will fit your hair perfectly. She always wears it and she never took it of"
"It looks very expensive. Are you sure you're going to give it to me, a stranger?" Yuuri asked.
"Of course, just promise me one thing…" the old lady said.
Yuuri looked at her curious of what she will promise.
"Always smile, visit me her sometime and invite me on your wedding" she smiled.
Yuuri blushed and said "Arigato Gozaimasu, Sakura-san"
"You can call me Sa-baa-san" she said.
"Hai, Sa-baa-chan" Yuuri said returning the kind smile from a woman.
"Treasure it always, ne? What's your name dear?"
"Yuuri…Shibuya Yuuri"
"It fits you perfectly. Such sweet name…"
Whoa, it's the first time anyone had compliment her name. People will snicker every time he introduced herself. Shibuya Yuuri…Harajuku Fuuri… what a lame pun.
"My sister name is Sayuri. You have too much in common" Sakura said.
That was really a great coincidence.
"Yuu-chan…we need to go home. Uma-kun and Sho-chan will be coming soon" Jennifer waved.
"Hai, Oku… Mama"
Yuuri went down from the salon chair and bowed at Sakura.
"Arigato Gozaimasu once again, Sa-baa-chan, I promise I'll visit you anytime" Yuuri said.
"Yes, I'm looking forward to it…Yuu-chan" she smiled back.
Yuuri ran to her mother and wave at Sakura whose smile widened.
"Ne, Yuu-chan let's eat fruit parfaits on our way home" Jennifer requested.
Yuuri cringed; it's not that she hates parfaits or something. She is not very fond of sweets. But she would hate to see the smile on Jennifer's face to fade.
"Okay" she answered shortly.
They went on a parfait cart and looked at the counter to see what they can eat.
"Uhmm… what do you want, Yuu-chan…"
The young monarch stared at the frozen delights. Why does it suddenly look so delicious?
"I like strawberry" she suddenly blurted out as she looks at the strawberry parfait.
"Then, I'll get chocolate!"
They waited for their order when Jennifer suddenly said "Are you really fine with this Yuu-chan?"
"Huh?" Yuuri looked up.
She saw Jennifer smiling at her but rather wistfully.
"It's really my dream to do this with my daughter. Shopping together, eating parfait on the way home, it's a real mother and daughter bonding…but…if you don't like it. I mean… you just suddenly became a girl and everything around you will change. It's very hard and I don't want to pressure you or do things you don't like" she said.
Yuuri sighed but grinned and said "Oku…Mama…as you say…I just suddenly became a girl and it's very hard… but since I can't change it, I might as well accept it. I can't run from it and pretend to be a boy gain. That's why I would like to learn how to be a girl and…" she blushed lightly…
"AND?"
"Since…I accepted it…I would like to be a good one…" Yuuri smiled.
"You're fine just being you, Yuu-chan; you don't have to be anyone at all. Everyone loves you because you are always true. I'm so proud that I raised a child like you" Jennifer said sounding relieved.
"Here's your order…"
On the way home, nothing eventful happened. Jennifer just rumbled how beautiful and cute her new dresses are. How it will fit Yuuri perfectly…how Yuuri's bust size is just amazing…
But Yuuri's mind is on something as she enjoyed…ENJOYED her strawberry parfait. She didn't know why but it suddenly tastes great.
Did Wolfram reached his home right now? How are things in Shin Makoku? ARE Gunter and Gwendal still alive? She thought.
"Are you listening, Yuu-chan?" Jennifer asked.
"Ah, hai…Oku…Mama" she smiled awkwardly.
"As I was saying, Uma-kun and Sho-chan arranged your papers and now, you're officially a girl. Then, what we will say to our neighbors, Yuuri the high school boy will go to abroad and study there, while his cousin from abroad will come here and study in Japan. That would be you Yuu-chan"
But Yuuri saw a loophole on this plan…
"Will I not change my name or something?"
"No, we'll just say that Yuuri is a common name in Uma-kun's family" Jennifer said.
"What about school?"
"Well, you would be transferred to a new school, but we haven't decided it yet" Jennifer answered.
"I…see…"
They reached home and opened it.
"Now, let's have a daughter cosplay"
"EH?"
Yuuri flinched as she looks at the mirror. She is wearing a red dress and has a pink frill apron above the dress. Then her hair is pony tailed by a pink ribbon but Jennifer let some couple of her fall on her hips. Then, Jennifer made her wear it for 'daughter cosplay'.
She sighed as she remembered her mother's advice.
The door suddenly opened.
She smiled as she saw, Shori and Shoma.
"Okairi, Otou-san, Onii-chan…what would you like for dinner?" she asked.
The two Shibuya looked at her dumbfounded when Shoma suddenly said "Yuu-chan is so cute" Then he embraced Yuuri.
"Oyaji…erm…Otou-san!" she squealed.
Eh? She squealed? She really squealed.
She had been really becoming like a girl… Oh God… Was it a good or bad thing?
"It suits you perfectly…Shibuya-chan" a voice on Shori's back said.
Yuuri looked at Shori and then he saw…MURATA
"You're here again, Murata?"
"I would like some curry again" he smiled.
"And you look very cute with the apron…Shibuya-chan" he said.
Yuuri blushed wildly.
"You look cuter…now" Murata teased.
"Oh, shut up…" Yuuri said covering her face.
The whole room laughed at them.
"That was really good, Mama-san" Murata said as he finished his food.
"Thanks, Ken-chan…next time I'll have Yuu-chan to help me but now…she will help me to wash the dishes ne? Yuu-chan?"
"Ah…fine"
Since, she was a girl well…she is a boy who became a girl, she might as well learn how to household chores. And…she would like to try cooking and baking…for…well…maybe she just wanted to become a good wife someday. Wait… did she said she wanted to become a good wife someday. For whom? She blushed when she thought of a certain blonde haired mazoku with lovely emerald eyes. Great…just really great…
Then as she washed the dishes, she felt something dragging him. Hold on…she doesn't want to go back just yet…so who's pulling her?
"Shibuya-chan…do you need any help?" Murata asked when he noticed that Shibuya's arm was half taken to Shin Makoku.
"Wait…is that?" Murata asked.
"I think…" Yuuri replied as she was dragged to the sink well…to Shin Makoku.
"Then…I'll go too!"
SPLASH
Yuuri opened her eyes and yes, they were on Shin Makoku again. In Shinou Temple and speaking of the devil…
"It's nice to have you back…Queen Yuuri, my, the apron really suits you" a baritone voice said.
The brunette looked at the shadows and saw Shinou smiling.
"Why did you call me here again?" she asked.
"I don't really call you…but my Sage…" he said looking at Murata.
The two Soukoku stood up and Shinou said "Oh, yeah…you'll also take care of your seal…"
"My seal?"
"You know…when you became sixteen and come of age…you will now have a seal and believe me it is much easier to have one. You will now sign you papers one on one just to stamp it" Shinou smirked.
"It's one of my lovely sage's idea to help me…" he said.
Murata frowned and said "You wouldn't do paper works telling me you're hands ache…"
"Then…I shall go right?" Yuuri asked not wanting to bother this very romantic atmosphere between two ancient men.
"Yes, Lady von Spitzberg is waiting for you…"
Lady von Spitzberg? Why Cheri-sama?
She ran to the exit while the two look at each other.
"Don't tell me you're jealous" Murata sighed.
"Why can't I be? You two are always too close and I knew Yuuri's new body is your idea and liking" Shinou grumbled.
Murata nearly laughed and said "Why do you always have to childish?"
"Because I want you to scold me" he said reaching on his waist pulling his lips to him. It was a simple peck and it made Murata's stomach felt like it was tied into pieces.
"I miss you…" Shinou whispered on his ear.
"Shinou…not now…you can kiss me later the maidens will see" Murata absentmindedly blush.
"As usual my sage is always shy…"
"I am just a man with manners, Shinou" he said grumpily and releasing himself from the embrace.
Shinou laughed and said "That's what I like you…your intelligence complement with my rashness…"
Murata walked to his room and Shinou followed.
"If you ever do anything peculiar…I promise you'll regret it" Murata said as he opened the door.
"Why do you have to be so shy? We already did it before…" Shinou smirked playfully.
Murata's blush deepened and he said "That was four thousand years ago, for heaven's sake"
"Yeah, I know…don't worry…I want your body to be innocent when I do this…" he said pulling Murata and running his large, calloused hand on his back.
Murata frowned and said "I told you if you ever did anything peculiar…"
"What are peculiar on an embrace and a touch between two lovers?" Shinou smiled seductively.
Murata's frowned deepened.
"Get out!" he blushed.
"What?" Shinou asked horrified.
Okay, he really pissed of his sage.
"Get out, before I kill you" Murata said blushing more wildly.
Murata opened the door and pushed Shinou outside. The door slammed on his face and expression was horrified.
"Did I just…been…thrown out from my very own temple?" he asked but then he smirked.
He knew his sage was pissed. It felt great to tease him and seduce him. He loves to see the pale pink lush to escape his cheeks again.
"Okay…fine, I'll tease you some other time…Oh… Shy…Great Sage…sama" he teased.
Meanwhile…
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS??" Shibuya Yuuri, sixteen years old, once and a boy now a girl yelled.
And on the other hand…
"Onee-sama…I found a girl who is like you and she will be a great Maou isn't she?" Sakura asked looking at a painting of a young woman with long black hair and sparkling ebony eyes.
Sakura smiled sadly and said "May she find happiness unlike what happened to you"

More Notes
Yuuri means Lily in Japanese. Also Yuri can refer to Lesbian love, funny isn't it Kyo Kara Maou shows eventual hints of Shounen Ai not eventual hints. And also, it was usually a girl's name.
Sayuri meanwhile…means Little Lily. Sakura means Cherry Blossoms.
Saa…
Till next time and please review!!
