Fairytales

The Epilogue

"If you can see the magic in a fairytale, you can face the future."

A year has passed since the war ended and the land has been at peace.

Yuni returned to the castle and the young princess made friends as the days passed by her.

Bluebell, Fran, Fuuta, Daisy, I-pin, and Lambo.

She was happy now but there was a part of her who wanted to reunite with Tsuna.

The boy who helped her.

Yuni's knight.

But a bitter laugh passed Yuni's throat as she held a sad smile on her lips and thought, 'I might not even meet the Tsuna of this world.'

Yuni walked in the castle's garden alone as she waits for her friends to come and visit.

The first one to arrive was a crestfallen Lambo who was pouting as he protested, "I still can't believe that I lost!"

"Well, you are weak," Fran emotionlessly shrugged as he followed after the younger boy, "so it was natural that you lost."

"Now, now." Fuuta who was the last of the visitors calmed the youngest boy as he says, "You tried your best, Lambo."

"I did!" Lambo complained with a whine, "I bet he cheated on me!"

"Tsk." Fran clicked his tongue as he gave him a blank look, "Sore loser."

Before a fight erupted between both Lambo and Fran, Yuni intervened as she greeted the three of them, "Good afternoon Lambo-kun, Fran-kun, Fuuta-kun."

Fran kissed the younger girl's hand in greeting as he said, "Good afternoon, princess."

"Good afternoon, too, Yuni-hime." Fuuta greeted as he kissed Yuni's other hand.

Lambo just crossed his arms and grumbled, "Good afternoon, Yuni."

Yuni tilted her head in question to the young boy's irritation and asked, "What happened?"

"Lambo's just being a sore losed." Fran answered for the younger boy with a bored look. He gave a careless shrug as he added, "Don't worry about it. It always happens."

Fuuta restrained a laugh out of politeness but Lambo didn't found it funny. The latter furiously screamed, "That Sawada cheated on me!"

Yuni's eyes widened as soon as she recognized the name. She turned to Fuuta and asked, "Sawada…?"

"He's a visitor from a foreign land," Fuuta informed the princess with a smile. When he noticed the curious look on the girl's face, he added, "Sawada Tsunayoshi."

"Tsunayoshi?"

The alarm on Yuni's face surprised the three boys.

"Where is he?" Yuni hastily questioned the three, "Where is Tsuna?"

"He was still in the arena when we left," Fuuta started to say. There was a pause before he added, "but he might be gone-"

"Save it, Fuuta." Fran cut him off with an amused smile on his face and he mused, "The princess has already left."

'Tsuna.' Yuni happily thought as she arrived in the arena, 'Tsuna might be here!'

A blonde who was part of the knights' squad noticed Yuni and asked, "Why are you here, princess?"

"Tsuna." Yuni bit her lips as she told the older boy, "I'm looking for Sawada Tsunayoshi."

When her request was answered with a confused look, Yuni described Tsuna's appearance, "Brunette? Kind eyes?"

When there was still no reception, Yuni let out an impatient huff as she recalled, "The person that won against Lambo a while ago?"

"Ah." There was recognition I the blonde knight's eyes as he informed the young princess, "The foreigner just left a while ago."

The blonde knight saw the crestfallen look on the princess' face and he offered, "I can look for him, princess."

"N-no need." Yuni shook her head and bit her lips in frustration.

The sun was already setting. Yuni continued to look around the plaza but there were no signs that he booked a night in a nearby inn.

Yuni wandered off and somewhere along the way, she had unconsciously gone to the forest where her old tower was hidden.

This was the place where everything started…

…and ended.

A sad smile formed on Yuni's lips as tears threatened to fall from her eyes.

She gaze at the starry night sky with her misty eyes.

'Aah…' A lone tear fell from her eyes as she reminisced, 'The sky is as beautiful as it was when everything started.'

There was rustling in the leaves and Yuni wiped her eyes as she cautiously looked around and asked, "Who's there?"

"Ah." A male figure approached her and gave a small sigh as he tried to explain, "I didn't know that someone else would be out here."

Yuni's eyes widened at the familiar tone of the voice and she asked, "Who…?"

"Sawada." The male lit up a lamp and the flames showed a familiar brunette who had an uncanny resemblance with Yuni's knight. He looked younger but…

Is he really…?

The boy's warm eyes softened and he gave a gentle smile.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi."

And just like that, another fairytale began.
