Here's more and sorry for not updating in a long while but hope you guys enjoy.

Perry is worrying over Vanessa after overhearing his Emperor talking to his advisors but he and Leah will help the young empress discover her potential, and show others what she can do.

I hope you guys like.


Perry entered Vanessa's room seeing the young empress awake but watching Leah sleep beside her seeing something in her bag which was the emperor's talisman sighing having a feeling that the dark brown red furred platypus female would probably sell it for food but saw she was hurt, remembering they'd been friends when they'd been bandits, before Emperor Doof took him in.

"Vanessa she needs medical aid because she got injured, probably from escaping here with your father's talisman." he told her seeing her stroke Leah's fur gently while he went to get bandages seeing one of the Emperor's servants bringing food, as he snuck out using the skills he'd learnt while being a bandit.

He then found bandages but heard Emperor Doof talking with one of his advisors as they were talking about Vanessa and about the fact that her condition made her unfit to rule China after him, which made Perry's blood boil under his fur.

They've no right to talk about Vanessa like that because she may have no sight but she has many talents besides her sight like karate plus Leah's showing her how to use chi, and she can understand animals.

Emperor Doofy has nothing to worry about but he needs to spend time with her, to know her and see what she can do.

He then left before anybody caught him and returned to Vanessa's room seeing her eating but feeding Leah dumplings since the female platypus hadn't eaten in many days, except for when she stole money or items to trade for money.

Leah saw a concerned look on Perry's face as he told her which made her angry but it helped her make up her mind about staying.

"You realise you can't act like an outlaw here since the Emperor will be cross, if you do?" he told her.

"Yes but Vanessa needs us since nobody in stinking China cares about her, not even her father." she said seeing a guilty look in Perry's eyes.

"You okay Perry since you look scared?" Leah asked him as he was remembering when Vanessa had been cursed.


It had been a few years ago when Vanessa was nine years old playing in the forest near here and happy as the wind blew through her brunette hair doing karate moves after watching Perry her father's most trusted guard train, but unaware that a Chi Witch was watching her ready to strike.

Emperor Doofensmirtz had once trusted the witch as an advisor but after he'd found her practising dark magic, he'd banished her from his palace but she knew that the young empress was what he valued more than any gem.

Master Perry saw what she was about to do hearing her chant a dark spell, while he fought against the witch since he'd sworn to protect not just the Emperor but the young Empress too and his heart broke watching the spell enter the Empress's eyes as he rushed to her side.

"I-I can't see!" Vanessa said scared as Perry saw her on the ground.

"It's okay little one because we'll find a way to heal your eyes after what that witch did." he said knowing she couldn't hear him.

"You think so, Master?" she said making the teal furred male amazed.

"You can hear me Empress?" he asked seeing her nod.

He then guided her back to the palace scowling knowing the Emperor knew what had happened seeing the Chi Witch there but Doof hugged his daughter.

From that day, Perry had became the young Empress's friend and swore to protect her no matter what.


"You okay since you've been quiet for a while, like remembering?" Leah asked breaking Perry out of his thoughts seeing Vanessa asleep making him smile a little.

"It's my fault that she was cursed by that witch because if I'd stopped her, Vanessa wouldn't be like this and have an normal life." he said looking away from her.

"Don't say that Master since you raised a strong little one despite her lack of sight, at least you care for her like a father since her father isn't in the mood to care about her." the outlaw female platypus said bluntly making Perry sigh since she didn't know the Emperor like he did.

But the thought of being a surrogate father to the Empress made him smile since it was true because he was the one who spent more time with her, even teaching her his skills except for swords in case she got hurt, as Leah saw that bold smirk she used to see when they were both outlaws fending for themselves.

"That's not such a bad idea after all, since she needs us because her father's busy ruling China." he said while bandaging her foot.

She had a feeling he missed the bandit life since he became the Emperor's guard and could maybe bring that excitement back to him, seeing him nuzzle Vanessa because she was having an nightmare about the witch again making Leah feel bad for her knowing she could help the empress be a warrior.
