Ryker: So I'm gonna finish this story, I'm determined to end it soon. It will end sorta how Bellamy's part in The First Time I goes. (so yea, Bell gets pregnant)
I'm only seeing a few more chapters for this then the end. I do want to do a side story of when Yuuri and Wolfram take Bell and Yu to Earth with either an infant Alexander or Wolfram is pregnant with Alexander. Idk which one, what do you guys think?
Wolfram sat in the gardens with a book in his hands. He already got a letter from Greta saying that she was alright and she will be staying with her friends. Yuuri already got confirmation from his family that everyone was safe.
"Mama?" Bell trotted over to Wolfram.
"Yes Dear?" Wolf put his book down. He was sitting underneath a tree with his back pressed against the thick trunk.
Bellamy sat next to Wolfram and put his head on Wolf's shoulder. Wolfram wrapped an around around his oldest son and rested his head on Bell's.
"What's up?" Wolfram asked, "You never do this."
"I know," Bell replied, "But I thought that we need this."
Wolfram chuckled, "Is this because of the Order?" He kissed his son's head, "Oh Honey, don't worry about that. Papa and I will make sure that they don't touch you."
"T-thanks Mama," Guilt nibbled at Bell's core. He tried to hold it inside. The ultimate test of his strength was to lie to Wolfram.
Vinny had told Bell to use this little trick. Pretend he is talking about something else, like a fun little game or a television show that they saw on Earth. Never actually see Wolfram talking about the Order.
"You know," Wolfram smiled softly, "When you were small, we would sit out here for hours on end. You begged me to read you a story or make one up." The blonde rubbed circles on his son's shoulder. "Then one day you told me that you didn't want to come here, you were too old for that. It broke my heart but I knew that one day, you would bring your son out here just like Uncle Conrad did with me and I did with you. It's a sort of tradition."
The raven haired boy snuggled himself closer to his Mother. The gentle breeze picked up and dusted a rosy sweet smell over the two. The branches of the sturdy tree provided shade for the pair as they lulled in the calm before the storm.
"Mama, c-can you tell me a story?" Bell asked meekly. A faint blush tinted his cheeks.
Wolfram was shocked, but that was quickly replaced as a swelling happiness in his gut. "Of course," he smiled. He sat with his legs criss-cross. Bell placed his head in his Mother's lap while Wolfram stroked up and down Bell's arm.
"Tell me the one about the Virgin ex Prince," Bell said. He knew the story was about Wolfram, but he loved to hear it.
"Alright," Wolfram smiled as he moved his hand up to Bell's thick hair and pet the boy gently, "Once there was a spoiled little Prince. He was neglected for his entire life, all he had to hold onto had long abandoned him. Then, one day, a wimpy man fell into his world. This man was more beautiful and kind than the Prince had ever imagined him to be. So, instead of being nice, the Prince was scared of the man and lashed out at him. That resulted in the man getting mad and he slapped the Prince unknowingly proposing to him. While the Prince was reluctant to get engaged, deep down he wanted this to happen."
Wolfram shifted his position so Bellamy would be more comfortable. "As the engagement went on, the Prince fell madly in love with the new King. Yet, this King grew up thinking that same-sex couples were bad. This broke the Prince. He wanted this man to love him, but he thought that even the King hated him. The King would talk to a bunch of beautiful women and that made the Prince's blood boil. He was jealous but he also wanted that wimp to notice his feelings. Then, one day, they were out on a mission and this little witch was awoken. In fear, she threw a powder at the King and the Prince leaped in front of him to take the blow."
"I thought the Prince was hit and he didn't jump in front of the King?" Bell looked up at his mother.
Wolfram chuckled, "Yes, sorry Dear." Wolf cleared his throat, "As I was saying. The Prince went into a deep sleep for two months, and when he woke up, he was pregnant. Of course, imagine how terrified the poor Prince was, he didn't know what to do. When he learned that the powder had bound his and the King's souls, he was overjoyed and yet so empty."
"Why was he empty?" Bell asked.
"Because the King didn't love the Prince yet," Wolf replied, "Now, once the Prince learned it was the King, he marched into the King's office and demanded the King to take responsibility for the baby. The King was a wimp and barely agreed. He was frightened. The Prince saw this as rejection, but the truth was the King thought he had hurt the Prince. The King was terrified that the Prince might have been forced into doing this, so he could barely speak. The two had agreed to get married, it was a small wedding since by this time the Prince's baby bump was showing. It was then that the King confessed his feelings for the Prince and vowed to protect their baby. Well, it turns out that they weren't having one baby, but two. They caught the witch and she helped them."
Bell felt himself doze off as his Mother continued to speak, "Then, tragedy struck. During the later months of the pregnancy, one of the babies was dying. So, the strong one had sacrificed his powers to become near human just to protect his sister. Oh, the Prince said that he would ground that child when he was born, yet when the time came, the Prince held the little baby in his arms and said that this child was special."
"What happened to the child?" Bell asked even though he knew the answer.
"The child became a pain in the Prince's butt!" Wolf squealed as he tickled Bellamy.
Bell yelped as he squirmed around to get away from the fingers. After a minute, Wolfram stopped and rested back against the tree.
"But," he said, "You see, the Prince was so proud of his children. He was so grateful for such a powerful, loving son. Two sons, and two amazing daughters. If you ask the Virgin Prince today, I'm sure he would tell you that he is so happy with his life."
Wolfram felt Bellamy's breaths become deeper as the boy drifted off to sleep, like they used to. He missed the days when Bell would depend on him, but he's so proud of the man his child has grown up to be. Bellamy had a fire in his eyes, similar to Yuuri's. It was a drive to protect people. Wolf knew when the time came, he'd have to let his son go and fight his own battles. He just prayed that it wouldn't be the one against the Order.
Yu and Alexander began to mix a potion that Vinny gave them. It would keep Wolfram and Yuuri busy.
"What does this do exactly?" Yu asked as she handed her little brother a spoon to stir the concoction.
"Keeps them calm," the blonde replied, "You know as well as I do that if Mama worries, then Papa does. Thus, if they don't see you and Bell then they will go into a frenzy. I'll keep them distracted by clinging to Papa, but that won't be enough." He poured some water into the blue mixture. "I can tell them that you two are with Aunt Cassandra, but that won't be enough either. If Mama is calm, then it will work."
"You are a creep sometimes," Yu huffed a she watched her brother pour the mixture into two separate vials.
"Thank you," he smiled, "But, you, Vinny, and Bell must be back in at most a few days. The potion will wear off and I cannot make more in the time limit I've been given."
"Where the hell did you learn all of this-"
"So promise me that you three will be back in time?" Alexander held out his hand.
Yu reluctantly took it. She made a mental note not to get on Alexander's bad side.
Her little brother was a brat, everyone in the castle knew this. Nobody knew why he disliked Yuuri so much.
Alexander had nothing against his father. He just noticed how everyone loved that wimp of a man. He only wondered how people could innately love him, so he decided that Yuuri must work for his love. That pushed him and Wolfram close and Yuuri further away. Alexander was smack in the middle of the entire incident between Wolfram and Bellamy which made him vulnerable. Yuuri was too sugar sweet towards Alexander unlike how Wolfram would play sword fight and rough around. Part of him thinks that he is making up for lost time when Wolfram was recovering, but the other part realizes how horrible he acts towards his father. His pride keeps him so shut out, he knows that if he opens up then Yuuri wins.
That night, when all the adults were asleep, it was time for the three to do the most stupid thing of their entire lives. Each of them dressed in black camouflage to blend in with their surroundings and Vinny brought a bag of essentials. He motioned for them to follow them.
Bell wore black skinny jeans that he stole from Earth and a long camouflage tunic that he tied with a rope around the waist. His combat boots fit snug on his feet. The last thing he took was his Mother's blue pendant that he was gifted upon turning sixteen. He tucked the pendant into his shirt as he stood at the meeting place.
Yu had sometime similar to her twin brother. She had on clingy black boots instead of combat boots. She wore special gloves that would help accent her powers. Her hair tied up in a high ponytail and her tunic was slightly longer than Bellamy's.
Vinny on the other hand wore no shoes and basic clothes. His knickers were a brown color that reached to about his mid calf while his black tunic hit his mid thigh. He had a satchel filled with food, cloth for wounds, water, and a map of Shin Makoku. Even though he knew every inch of the land and he could feel it through the cold ground, he hadn't been out in the field for quite some time.
Alexander made sure that Yuuri and Wolfram were asleep in their bed. Beatrix took care of Gwendal and Aleksei while Andrew had Yozak and Conrad. Cara and Ivy looked after everyone else in the castle.
"Ready?" Bell took a deep breath.
"It's honestly a great time to reconsider-" Vinny squeaked.
"Come on Vin!" Bell groaned, "Stop being such a wimp and let's go."
Vinny sighed as he followed the twins past the safety gates of the Castle and into the unknown.
"Vin, where do we go?" Bell asked.
The redhead took a deep breath and closed his eyes. His toes wiggled in the soft grass as he tapped into the earth's core. When he opened his blue eyes, they were dull and bleak. He wasn't in his body anymore, he was part of the ground.
Bell supported Vinny's shoulders since he was afraid the boy would fall over like a tree. Yu had never seen Vinny tap into his powers like that, she found it so intriguing.
"That way," Vinny pointed forward, "Jay is that way."
"But Jay doesn't live in that direction…" Yu breathed.
"We have to hurry!" Bell yelled as he grabbed Yu and Vinny's hands, "Let's get this adventure started!"
"Why me?" Vinny groaned as he followed blindly.
Wolfram jolted out of bed. Sweat dripped down his forehead and made his salmon nightgown cling to his skin. He shook Yuuri until the man woke up.
"Wolfram, what's wrong?" Yuuri groaned and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"Bell and Yu!" he gasped, "T-they're-"
"Asleep," Yuuri pressed a kiss on Wolfram's forehead, "Wolf, you are still worried about the Order. Everything is going to be alright."
"But Yuuri!" Wolfram tried to protest.
"It was probably just a nightmare," the double black said.
Wolfram thought that it was too real to be a nightmare. He felt like children in danger. His gut screamed for him to check on the teenagers.
"A mother's intuition is never wrong," Wolfram said shakily, "I'm just going to go check."
He got out of bed and ran down the hall to Yu's room which was across from Bell's. Wolf opened the door to see a lump under the covers. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw the lump. Little did he know, it was Beatrix in the bed, with a little help from Vinny, she had longer legs and wore a black wig.
Wolfram noticed the window was wide open so he shut it then sat at the bedside. He stroked Yu's hair and placed a kiss of her head before he left the room.
In Bell's room, Alexander was a stand-in. He too had a wig and longer legs with the help of Vinny's element. Wolfram opened the door and saw his son safe and sound, he didn't know that it was Alexander and not Bell.
Wolf went back to bed and climb over Yuuri to secure his spot next to the wall. They moved the bed against the wall after Alexander was born.
Yuuri wrapped an arm around Wolfram's waist and pulled him close. The King's body spooned Wolf's as the man laced kisses down the exposed skin of Wolfram's neck.
"Is everything alright?" Yuuri asked.
"Yeah," Wolf replied, "I guess it was just a nightmare." He could've sworn that his children were in danger.
"It's alright because I have you now, no more nightmares," Yuuri whispered in Wolfram's ear.
Wolf chuckled as he remembered the countless times Yuuri came crawling to Wolf after a nightmare. "Yes, yes, my wimpy King is here to save me," Wolf joked as he settled himself in Yuuri's arms.
"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" Yuuri stammered.
"Go to sleep," Wolf smiled.
The feeling still didn't leave his system. He knew something was wrong.
The next day, He met with Aleksei and the boy felt the same way. He blamed it on his pregnancy hormones, but he knew that wasn't the case. The redhead was two months pregnant that day and he was more proud than ever.
"Have you seen Vinny?" Aleksei asked Wolfram.
"No, have you seen Bell and Yu?" Wolf asked and Aleksei shook his head, "Odd."
"I bet that they are studying right now. After all, Bell is grounded along with Yu and Vinny." Aleksei smiled.
Yuuri ran to Wolfram like his hair was on fire. Wolf looked taken back when Yuuri grabbed his shoulders. Alexander trailed behind him and hugged Yuuri.
"Um," Wolf looked at Yuuri, "What?"
"He is clinging to me!" Yuuri sounded proud, "I'm so happy!"
"Go play with him then, teach him how to spar a bit," Wolf shooed his pesky husband away.
"That was… weird," Aleksei said in a lack for better words.
"I know," Wolf crossed his arms over his chest.
"Hey Vin," Yu said as she tried to balance herself on a stone wall that lined the dusty dirt path, "I don't want to be that person, but I'm starving."
"Yeah, we've been walking all night," Bell groaned as he hung off of his little cousin.
Vinny wished that he was anywhere but there. He felt needed and special, but this was ridiculous. He was being taken advantage of by these twin terrors. That was no adventure.
Sorrow filled Vinny up like a water glass. He had the urge to throw himself against the rock wall and slide down it. His back already tingled from the idea.
"Fine," Vinny growled, "We eat while we walk."
"But-" Bell tried to say as Vinny took some sandwiches out of his bag.
"Hey, do you want my help or no?" Vinny snapped as he threw the food in Bell's face, "We do it my way!"
Vinny handed Yu a sandwich and they continued their travels. This was a side of his cousin that Bell had never seen before. It wasn't frightening, but so out of character for the passive boy.
"What's with you?" Bell asked.
Vinny's eye twitched at the question, "Nothing, Bellamy!" He threw his hands up in the air for emphasis, "You guys expect me to play along with whatever schemes you have! Look, I don't want to do this. It's a bad idea, not to mention the amounts of trouble we will be in. Look, I'm not doubting either of your leader skills, but don't you think this idea is rather idiotic?"
Yu sighed, "There is something about the Order that not many people know," she looked away, "After the last attack, Bell and I decided to look into them. We read every book, talked to everyone, and even got some outsider sources. We learned something pretty heavy."
"They don't just want me, they want all soul made children. Our blood is different than the average person," Bell finished Yuri's sentence, "Nobody knows that. Our blood is the key to unlocking their plans to then take my powers. With all three of us at the castle, it paints big red targets on our family."
Vinny shook his head, "No way… So you are leading all of us to the slaughter?"
"No, never!" Bell gasped, "It would be best if we tried to stop them before they touched our family. Imagine what they will do to Ivy, the defenseless young child."
"I'd rather not," Vinny snapped, "Let's keep going, we wasted precious daylight."
Vinny wished for his own death. He just caused trouble for everyone around him, like he did as a child. Right now, their first priority was to get Jay and keep him safe, then it would be to deal with the Order.
'Why would you tell him that?' Bell asked Yu telepathically.
'Because,' she thought to him, 'He might as well know the truth about us. Not just you giving yourself willingly to the Order, which I won't allow. You're counting on Mama finding out, aren't you?'
Bell smirked, 'Is it that obvious? When Mama is angry, he will cut down anything in his path.'
"Hey!" Vinny yelped, "No telepathic conversations with me right here!"
"Alright little cousin," Bell chuckled as he messed up Vinny's red hair. Vinny squeaked and pushed his cousin away. He felt his heart pang something pleasant, it had been so long since he felt that.
Bell was determined to keep everyone safe, even at the cost of his own life. Now, his best friend needs him, and as he feared, the Order had gotten there first.
