"Yes I will!" "I'll be your empress," "I wouldn't have any less my love!" Bella said as hotohori slide the ring on her finger,
"Well since you agreed you are my empress now," "you just have to sign the papers when we get back and we would make a royal announcement," "it was the advisers idea,"
"I don't care," "I'm just happy I have the one I love!"
"So do I my love," hotohori flipped Bella on her back,
Hotohori removed all Bella's cloths, bella removed all of his as well,

"Oh angel,"
As she put the whoe cock inside of her mouth and sucked up and down and she let go and started to suck his ball, untill he couldnt take it no more he had to be inside of his angel and claim her as his, he flipped her over in her back and kissed her,
"Are you ready my angel,"
Bella nodded, and closed her eyes, hotohori placed the tip of his thick cock at the entrance of her pussy, and he put the whole thing in all at once and kiss her,
"Are you ok my angel?" Bella nodded and wiggled her hips, he started at a slow pace and went quicker, oh suzaku she is so tight and she is mine, and started to pound into her,

"Yes all yours my love," "let's get dressed at go back."
"Yes let's," "my love and wife,"
End flashback,
Everyone was sound asleep in their bed's, hotohori and bella was sleeping in their bed together after the party they had for the congratulations and sent kiarra with the paper to show that they are married to the palace, and the whole of konan that they have a empress, the others only things there a regular married couple,as miaka was studying,
"Perry," "the arrival of the black ships," "in 1853," "for the japanese- US peace treaty," "the end of the isolationist period," "in 1855," "imperial reverence/ expulsion and movement- ,"
she was cut off by a object hitting her head, rubbing her sore and abused head, miaka looked to see a sleepy and rather hung over nuriko,
"Could you not talk so loudly," "it's to early in the morning," 'and I had way to much to drink last night," "and I'm still depressed that Bella is married to his highness it should of been me," "now she is the empress," "but I'll still won't give up," "and one thing the only time your quiet is when your feeding you face," miaka glared at nuriko,
"Geez," "I can't help it," "it help's me to remember things for the exams back home," nuriko looked annoyed at looked at the others who where still sound asleep still either hung over or tiered,
"Hey look I really don't know what in the world you blabbering about," "but I'm exhausted and I'm hungover and so freaking depressed," "since we found mistukake in choko," "and his highness and Bella now married its just blah," "now we just need to find the final member and get tamahome back," "and it's going to be odd thinking of Bella as the empress now,"
"The mirror hasn't even shone anything or any sign," "are you sure that you didn't break it?"
Miaka looked on worried and looked at the magic mirror, looking over to see if it did break or something, then miaka shook her fist and started to yell at nuriko,
"Oh stop your grumbling around," "just one more time," "never give up,"
until a pellow flew acrossed the room and hit miaka in the face, nuriko turned around to see a vary angry and annoyed Bella,
"Shut the hell up dear cousin of mine!" Bella yelled out, as hotohori pulled her back down in his arms,
"Strange what that sound?" "It was so beautiful," "like how Bella plays when she plays her music," "it seems that the sounds echos through the atmosphere," "it a flute?" Miaka wanted to find out what it was, so she tried to ask nuriko and Bella,
"Hey nuriko," "Bella," "is that a flute out there?" "What is it doing out there," the only reply she got from both of them was,
"Just the hell up!" From nuriko up in miakas face and Bella being held down from her husband,
"You know your sexy when your angry," "my angel," stated hotohori,
"Oh stop it you two," "what dose it take to get some damn sleep around here,"
meanwhile later that morning,
Hotohori rode his horse with Bella behind him, while mistukake, tasuki, nuriko walked beside them, while miaka rode on kiarra with shippo and shiori and rin, miaka was still was rambling about the sound she over heard,
"But I really did hear a flute you guys!" Tasuki looked at her like she was crazy, and asked mistukake
"Hey mistukake," "did you hear anything?" Mistukake only shook his head to say he didn't hear nothing,
"No,"
nuriko still annoyed about getting up so early and had to see the love bird's at it do early, and said in a annoyed tone,
"It was probably some bug's chirping," "or the newly weds going at it," miaka slouched in depression, and bella blushed bright red, bella got off the horse and went on to a transformed dios to hide her embarencement, as hotohori smiled smugly and said,
"If miaka heard a flute then she heard a flute," "but we did have fun last night," smiling up at his love and now empress, tasuki crossed his arms annoyed,
"Oh come on now you two!" "You look to lovey," tasuki said jealousy, nuriko was the same way and stated
"Well maybe she didn't get no sleep from her nightly activates," "and her cousins big mouth," miaka looked hurt,
"Hey now!" "That hurts you know!"
Bella lower to the ground with dios, and pointed out where they where going, so they can get off of her sex life with her husband we have been married for a day geez,
"Hey dear cousin of mine!" "Lookie it tamahome village!" miaka perked up and edged everyone to go forward,they saw a smal village over the hill, miaka explained,
"It's tamahomes village," nuriko looked and forgotten his jealousy,and couldn't help but smile at the memory from the last time they where here,
"Yeah your right," "it's been awhile now hasn't it?" Miaka almost jumped off kiarra,
"And this is where we found chichiri," a image of the fox faced monk popped in the heads,
"And tamahomes family as well," miaka was filled with so much joy, while everyone smiled at her joy-fullness,
"Tamahomes family was taking refuge along with the other villagers to the palace that was saved by Bella," mistukake and tasuki looked at each other in confusion and shrugged it off,
"Wait," "wait," "hold on," "you have to be freaking kidding me," "Bella saved all these people along with others from other villages?" Asked tasuki, Bella yelled down from above,
"Yes you stupid red headed bandit!" "You guy's go ahead I need to go do something," with out Another word she took off on dios,nuriko and tasuki and mistukake eyes trailed after her and couldn't keep their eyes off her back side, until they heard a clearing of a voice,
"Will you stop staring at my wife's backside," "will you," hotohori stated annoyed, with his eyebrow twitching,and miaka continued,
"Oh there are tamahomes brothers and sisters," "and his sick father," then a *light bulb* went above her head,
"Oh mistukake!" "come with me quickly!" Miaka started to drag mistukake through the village,
just as they ran down the street, a small boy was running around and asking for help,
"Have you seen a doctor anywhere?" All the people in the village told him no,until he saw a familiar girl running down the street with a huge guy,
"Priestess of suzaku?" Miaka and mistukake skidded to a stop to see a panting,
"chuei,"
"Huh?"
"Priestess of suzaku," "it is you," miaka remembered him,
"Chuei!" The boy fell to his knees and panting,
"Chuei what's wrong?" "Did something happen?" Miaka asked, as mistukake came up next to them,
"Papa," "papa gotten worst," "and I don't know what to do," "I couldn't find a doctor," "i been looking all morning," "oh help us please priestess of suzaku," mistukake offered a hand to help the young boy up,
"Where is your home, son?" Mistukake asked chuei kindly,
chuei took the kind doctors hand and lead them both to the small hut, they knelt in front of tamahomes father who want laying down and not moving,all the children's where gathered around miaka as they hoped they won't lose their father, mistukake placed a hand over tamahomes fathers chest to make a assessment of his health,
"He vary weak and sick," mistukake stated,
"Can you help him?" asked chuei
"Don't worry chuei," "your father will be fine," mistukake turned back to the sick old man and put his hand over his body,
"HEALING FORCES!",
the mark of suzaku appeared on his hand as the green glow started to appear to show his healing power, the room was quiet was they watched as the warrior did his job,until the green light died down and their father eyes opened and *gasped*, relief filled over the room to make the thickness of worry to leave,
"Papa!"
The old man looked around the room, and started to wonder why there was so many people in his humble home,
"What's all this?" Mistukake answered,
"It's ok now," "you have been cured from your illness that you have been suffering from," the old man looked at him with a grateful look,
"I can feel it," "oh how can I thank you for this," "you kind doctor,"
mistukake suddenly covered his face and groaned in pain,even tamahomes father got up in concern for the good doctor, miaka was right infront of him unconcern,
"Mistukake?" "Are you ok?"
"I'll be fine," "after some rest I'll recover," "I only have enough strength to heal once a day with this power,' chuei came over with some money,
"Here take this money please," "as payment for thanks for healing our father," mistukake declined right away,
"I don't wish to take none of your money," "why don't you guy buy some nice fish of your family's dinner," and a small meow came from his shoulder,tamas cute head poked up forum mistukake shoulder, mistukake only chuckled and petted the cat,
"Well and for this pig as well," chuei only beamed at him,
"Okey!" "Will do!" Before he could reach the door he was stopped by Bella,
"Oh gee!" "Did I miss anything!" Chuei and the other beamed and rushed to bella and knocked the girl over in a doggy pile,
"Bella neeeeeeaaasssssaaaannnn!"
"We where wondering were you where!"
"Bella neeeeaaaasaaaannn!" "How are you!" "We missed you so much!"
"Come quick!" "Father has been healed completely by the big doctor!" Bella only giggle hand patted the little ones heads,
"Hi!" "My little ones!" "Have you been on your best behavior?" The four of the all answered at once,
"Yes!" "Bella nee san!" "We have been on our best behavior," they all look up at her innocently,
"Well that's good my little ones!" Bella could only laugh,until the door open,
"I have a surprise for all of you!" "My little ones!" Dios was in his larger form,carrying on his back was all the fish she caught, the vegetables, fruits, meat, and sweets, that that village gave to her for a gift for all the help she has done, tamahome father was shocked at the sight of the food,
"Oh you didn't have to do this," "my lady," Bella flashed him a smile,
"Well it's the least I could do," "plus I miss you guys so much," "and you guy's are family" "So," "and plus I'm just happy you and your family is safe," tamahome father smiled at the memeory,
"Yes if it wasn't for you," "kami knows where we would be,"
"Don't worry about it," "your happiness is enough of a thanks," "plus miaka kinda helped ya know," "and I'm married now,"
"Congratulations," "who's the luckily man,"
"Um," "well just don't say anything right now pretend he normal," "hotohori the emperor of konan," tamahomes father eyes widen in shock he thought it was a roomer,
"No problem," tamahomes father smiled at his new female ruler,
"You can treat me normal you know," "even though I'm a empress now!" And they lookd over to see miaka circling the piles of food,
"Oh my Bella," "where you get it all," Bella shrugged and smiled,
"I caught the fish," "I bought some of the stuff," "until the people realized who I was they started to pile stuff on me like crazy," "so whatever is given to me I have for tamahomes family like a account they won't have to worry about food medicine or anything anymore," "as a favor to me," "plus I need to take care of family," miaka looked at her cousin in awe,
"Wow!" "Your the best ever Bella!" "Your like super woman!" Bella blushed at what miaka said, she been blushing a lot today,
"It's not as easy as you think dear cousin," miaka only jumped on Bella's back and laughed,
"but your still Super woman to me and me idle!" As miaka clung to Bella's back,
"tamahome would been so happy If he was here," thought miaka,
until. Kiarra landed next to dios with shiori and shippo and rin on her, a minute later after that hotohori, tasuki and nuriko showed up,Nuriko looked at where the kids watching shippos tricks,
"Oh wow, they seem so much happier than the last time we saw them at the palace,"
while tasuki was pointing a shaking finger at Bella, miaka just got her cousin off her back, and started to stutter disbelief,
How the feaking hell you get here so darn fast princess?" "And what's with the mountain of food?"
Bella smacked him and stuck her nose in the air and went over and started to prepare something for dinner, nuriko neared Bella and eyed the food in the corner as well,
"Well Bella you did your share of shopping and you forgot me," "here let me help you with that,"
miaka went out to watch over the kids,chuei volunteered to get the fire wood, three of the younger kids came up and tugged on miakas skirt,
"Miaka!" "Why isnt big brother not here with you,"
miaka jumped at the sudden question and trying to figure what to say, so she just decided to pretend to sleep and snore loudly,tasuki came up behind her and smacked her in the head,
"GRRRRR!" "DON'T PRETEND TO FALL ASLEEP THAT RUDE!" The kids backed away and giggled to themselves,hotohori was the last one to enter the hut,
"So this is tamahomes home?"
There where ripped and torn blankets all over the place, the walls where crack and the place looked like it would collapsed any minute,
"I didn't thing that people like in housing like this?" And thought in despaired,
"in me and my Bella's empire," "the emperor and empress should rule so their subjects won't be exposed to this kind of life," yuiren knocked him out of his thoughts when she tugged on his cloths, kneeling so he was eye level with the little girl, hotohori smiled gently at the girl,
"What is it little one," using his Bella's name for kids,
"Are you my big brother's wife?" "Miss?" All they heard was laughter and someone falling on the floor,
"Bella are you ok?"
"Yeah,,,, I'm hahahahah... Fine...hahahaha.. Ouch there was the knife,"
"No little one," "I'm a man," "but my wife is over there,"
"You mean Bella nee san?" Hotohori smiled and nodded,
"You two are so beautiful togther!" Touched by the little girls comment,he took the little girl in his arms and hugged her,
"Even though your so poor," "your so honest and bright and truthful,"
miaka and tasuki look at him like he was crazy, until Bella stopped laughing and took the knife out of her leg and healed herself, she hit hotohori over the head for the first comment he made,
"My dear husband," "you don't say their poor," "that is a kid!" Hotohori rubbed his sore spot on his head and looked up at his Bella with confusion,
"What do you mean my love?" As he tried to hold her,
"I didn't say anything wrong," "I was just completing them!" Bella gave her husband the cold shoulder and picked up yuiren,
"There," "there don't pay attention to uncle hotohori," "little one," "he's going to be in the dog house tonight," hotohori pouted and got up and walked behind his wife and wrapped his arms around her waste,
"That was harsh dearest wife," "you be a great mother to our children," bella wiggled her backside into his lower region,
"your forgiven my dear,"
yuiren looked at both of them and try to figure out what was going on,when Bella turned to her,
"Yuiren," "I wish to give you and you siblings a gift," "so can you go get the little one?"
The little girl blinked and nodded happily and ran off to go gather her siblings and Bella's kids, when all three of her siblings and shippo and shiori and rin was there in front of her,
she gave each and every one sweet's and a toy to their personalty she gave her little ones her gift last, they where all happy with the gift from Bella and went off, she put up chuei gift when he gets back,
"Bella nee san!" "Bella nee san!" "I got the fire wood for you!"
Chuei stood on the door step with the freshly cut firewood in his arms with his hair unbound, everyone in the room looked at him and realized he looked like a mini tamahome, except for the ones who didn't know who tamahome was, miaka was the first to break out of her thought process, and before thinking,
"TAMAHOME MY LOVE!" Chuei yelped in surprise as miaka tackled and smooched the poor boy,
"H-hey w-wait!" "I-I'm not t-tamahome!" "I'm chuei!"
Bella and the other looked out the doorway with either amusement or in Bella's case embarrassment and slapped her face from her spot on her husbands back,
then miaka brain finally kicked in and realized a that it wasn't tamahome the man that she love, she laughed nervously at her brain fart, as tasuki came out to help the young boy up,poor chuei was blushing like a cherry and was a bit annoyed that he got smooched,miaka just scratched her head and said,
"I'm sorry!" "Heh heh!" "I just had a brain fart!" "A real smelly brain fart!" "Heh heh heh!," then hotohori commented,
"You can tell they are brother's by how the looks," "he dose look a lot like tamahome,"
as he squeezed his wife's nice firm backside while she was on his backside, after everyone settled down from the commotion, Bella, nuriko, and chuei was preparing dinner, while everyone else was playing or just talking to each other,Nuriko turned to Bella and asked,
"You caught this fish from the river?" Bella nodded and explained,
"My father was a great fisher and he taught me as a child," "I always loved fishing with my father," "I was closer to him than my mother," "she never cared for me as a daughter," "she was more or less a teenager in a adult body," "so I was always taking care of my mother even when I was a small child," "when I finally reached high school," "now I don't have to worry about now more thank kami,"
"I moved back with my beloved father," "since my mother remarried a baseball player named Phil," "so I enjoy going fishing after school at the reservation with him and his friend," "until I met edward and he messed with my mind so much that I didn't even go anymore until it was to late," "after he broke it off in the woods and told me I was worthless and a stupid human," "and nearly doing the unthinkable," "I went back to my house to find them dead,"
nuriko looked at Bella sadly, but changed the subject he hated to see the girl he love so much sad,So he turned to chuei and asked,
"So where is tamahomes money?" Chuei didn't even look at nuriko but answered the question anyways
"I'm saving it up," "before I spend Anything," "I think it through and through," "and now since Bella nee san had set thing's up for us," "with food clothing and medical help and medicines," "and help with our house being built better," "I can save up the money we earn for emergency's," nuriko smiled,
"Bella such a nice person," "and going to be a great empress," "but he still isn't giving up yet,"
"Your just like your brother when it comes to money,"
Miaka leaned angst the wall by the window and watched chuei checking the fire, and thought to herself,
"he is really like tamahome isn't he," "oh," "where are you chiriko," "I hope we find you soon," "so I can see tamahome again," "I miss him so much,"
her grumbling stomach broke her out of her thoughts,even in a depressing time like this, her stomach is still incharge,she was happy when Bella called out to her,
"Oooooohhh dear cousin of mine!" "Dinner is read!"
Jumping up and dashing to where the food is so she can stuff her face,And was oblivious that she and Bella was being watched from the trees,
meanwhile In kutou with nakago,
A black figure flashed infront of nakago, and bowed,
"My lord!" "I have something urgent to report!"
"Report,"
"The priestess of the shikon is now the empress of konan," "and cured of the poison," "and as well they found their sixth warrior,"
Nakago wasn't ready for this but he will let it go, even though he don't agree with the choice but she dose deserve the happiness from what lady yui told him, but he will not give up on her,
"Go and continue,"
"Yes sir!"
meanwhile with tamahome and yui,
That night the wind blew harshly acrossed the lands of kutou, The bamboo swayed in the strong icy cold winds of the dead of night,everything was almost silent as the strong icy cold winds beat against the windows of the palace,
yui continued to wipe the injured face of tamahomes with a damp cloth, tamahomes eyes fluttered open as he tried to get up, but his body was protesting from the soreness and the pain he was in,
"Tamahome?" "Are you alright?" Tamahome tried to get up again but the pain showed all over his face,
"I..," tamahome gritted his teeth as the pain shot through him, yui placed her hands on tamahomes chest,
"Oh please tamahome," "please lay back down," "you where Hurt vary badly," tamahome did what she told him to do,
"You been in a coma like state for a week now," yui stated,
as she went over to the wash basin and rinsed out the bloodied cloth, tamahome was staring at the ceiling,
"So," "uh," "you been taking care of me all this time?" Tamahome looked over at her and saw her smile,
"Thank you, yui," "for the help," yui smiled brightly and walked back over and placed the damp cloth on tamahomes forehead,
"Huh," "a week that was a long time I been out," "I wonder how miaka is doing?" At the mentioning of her ex best friend,yui fisted her hands and looked down at the floor,
"I just hope they have gotten her some help," "and she out of danger," "well," "then again Bella is with them," "so things should be ok,"
yui stayed quiet the whole time, while tamahome rambled on, he started to bad mouth nakago,
"That blonde asshole!" "Repulsive filthy freaking bastard," "deserves a good ass kicking," "I think bella is going to be the one to get to him first though," "I know she wants to hand his head decapitated and placed on a silver platter." "And if the asshole didn't beat me I could of made it-,"
"Why?" Tamahome looked over at yui with a confused look,
"WHY THE HELL DO YOU STILL THINK ABOUT MIAKA!"" EVEN AFTER ALL THAT HAPPENED TO YOU HERE!'' "WHY CAN'T YOU FORGET ABOUT THAT STUPID BITCH AND HER SILLY STUPID GAMES!"
Shocked at her outburst, tamahome tried to call out for yui, but before he could yui lips covered his in a passionate kiss,which wasn't returned, yui released tamahome from her kiss, and looked at him pleadingly,
"Yui?..." Yui threw herself at tamahome and held onto him,
"I... I... I love you so much... ," miaka flashed acrossed his memeory,
Flashback,
"Yui is In love with you as well,"
Flashback end,
He could feel yui move more and more closer to him,
"While your here," "please don't talk about miaka," that witch," "I'll do anything for you," "I'll show you," "I'll even make love to you if you so wished," "I will!"
Tamahome eyes widen at what yui had just all said,there was a brief Silence just only the wind for noise, before one of the windows blew opened and blew all the lights out, the drappery's where dancing in the icy cold wind as there shadows danced all over the walls, yui stood in the darkness of the room with the silky drapes dancing in front of her,
"Yui," "you shouldn't-," tamahome was cut off by the look yui gave him, before she turned around quickly and ran away, tamahome tried to call out to the girl again,
"Yui!" "Wait!" But she just ignored him and continued to run away,
meanwhile back in tamahomes village with the others,
Tamahome family offered the group to stay the night,and everyone happily accepted the offer, meanwhile, miaka was brushing her teeth, nuriko called out to her,
"Miaka!" "Hurry up and go to bed already!" "It been two hours!" "The love birds are even back!" "That proves that you taking so long!" "We will start looking again in the morning," "early in the morning," stated and annoyed jealous nuriko, miaka didn't reply to nuriko, she just looked closer out the window,
"Hey!" "Do bats harm or attack people?" Sure enough there where some really creepy bats outside, most of them where facing right at her, nuriko only replied,
"No," "normal and healthy bats don't harm or attack people," nuriko *yawned* and stretched before continuing in a sleepy voice,
"They send out ultra- sonic waves in the dark and it would bounce off objects so they could steer clear from the danger," "steering from a high frequent waves people normally can't hear it," miaka hummed in thought,
hotohoti went ans bedded down for the night, while listening to everyone's talking,
"night everyone," hotohoti yelled out,
"night!" "did you enjoy you time with princess!" yelled tasuki, hotohori's eye brow twitched,
"i wish i had someone like her," "dose she have a sister!" yelled tamahome's father,
"no she dose't," "go to bed and stop having dirty thought's of my wife!" hotohori yelled back,
"come on your no fun," tasuki whined,
"yeah she one beauty," yelled tamahomes father,
"I CAN HEAR YOU!" yelled a annoyed bella, after that they all fell asleep
Everyone was asleep except for Bella, after her and hotohori came back from their love making she had this odd feeling that they are being watched,she was roped in by all the kids to sleep with them so she did, she kept looking out the window at the bats, she thought about going to investigate so as she tried to get out of bed,she woke up the kids, cursing her damned luck,
"Bella nee san?" ''Are you ok?" Asked yuiren
"Yes I'm fine," "little one," "I'm just gonna go on a walk I'll be right back,"
Bella smiled as she saw all of them go back to sleep even her pup's as well The bats where still handing there still creepy,there was a evil aura around them that made Bella feel uneasy, the cold nights air carried the sounds of a flute that made it sound really erie at this Time of the night,
"that must be the flute miaka was talking about earlier today," at first it was barely not there and then it got louder and more powerful as the notes of the flutes music went from high to low, it reached miakas ears and woke her up from her restful sleep,
Miaka was laying on the bunk beds, while nuriko was sleeping on the bottom bunk,miaka leaned over the edge of the bed and let her head dangled off the side,and started to poke at nuriko,
*Poke* *poke,* "nuriko!" "Hey nuriko!" *Poke* *poke!* "Do you head that flute playing?" *Poke* *poke!,*
nuriko open his eyes and looked annoyed from being woke up from his dream about Bella and him, and being poked,
"What do you want!" "And stop poking me!" "Or I bite that finger off!" Nuriko tried to see if he could hear what in the world miaka is talking about,
"I don't hear nothing," whined out a sleepy nuriko,
after that was said his body plopped back to his bed and fell right back to sleep, miaka was still dangling upside down and thought to herself,
"hmm," "maybe I can only hear it," "or I might have super hearing like the creepy bats," then miaka *gasped*,
"The flute it stopped,"
miaka got out of bed and started to tip toe out of the room, trying not to make no noise,she almost screamed in fright when a hand covered her mouth and placed in her shoulder,before she could bite the persons hand, Bella spoke,
"Don't you dare," "dear cousin of mine," "now calm down will you before you wake people up," Bella let go of her cousin, Miaka turned around and whispered harshly to her,
"What is wrong with you Bella?" "I could of hit you," "or bitten you," "or something," Bella gave her cousin a smirk,
"Sorry," "but why are you wondering about at this time of night?" Miaka nearly forgot what she was doing, and started to explain,
"Oh yeah!" "Heh heh!" "The flute!" "I heard the flute again!" "Did you hear it as well?" Bella glared at her cousins stupidity,
"Yes," "I did," "that's why I'm wondering around here right now in the first place at this time of night," "I over heard it the other night but thought it was crickets," "It didnt seem evil," it seemed comforting and soothing,"
miaka pouted at what her cousin just said, and rolled her eyes and stopped towards to the door, before she even got five steps outside of the door Bella yanked her back,Bella was about to yell at her cousin again then she noticed Bella's narrowed eyes,
Bella was cautiously looking around,Until her eyes landed on the tree, a confused miaka look up to see what her cousin was looking at, miaka gasped at all the bats that where all over the place,
With out any warning they started to attack, there where bats from all directions started attacking them, Bitting and nipping and scratching at their body's, Bella was using her pink whip, as miaka was yelling for nuriko,
"there something wrong with the bats," "nuriko said there harmless," "are they after me and Bella again?" "If so tamahomes family is endanger," "and Bella can't fight all these bats alone she already wounded," miaka started to run into the woods with Bella right behind her slashing the bats as she went,
Bella was running right behind her cousin to try to protect her the best as she can, her suspicions where that kutou was behind this and it don't going to go well, they must of notice the death of their friend that she killed and send a new person to take that person place, she transformed into her demon form for more power so she can defeat the bats quicker,She started to slash each bat in a flash with her claws with her poison melting some, using her pink whip,
Until the kutou assassin dashed a crossed while she was busy and stabbed her in the back twice then in her chest as he was stabbed in the stomach by Bella with her poison claws and turned into green dust,
then she fell gracefully to the ground in a pool of her own blood, miaka screamed as the bats continued to attack her and not realize what happened to her cousin, and what she did to save her life,
Hotohori and tasuki woke up at the sound of miaka scream, they ran straight to where the girls where, They reached the scene and was alarmed by the bats attacking miaka,
"I got em," as tasuki took out his fan and yelled,
"REKKA-SHINEN!"
And killed the rest of the bats that Bella didn't get,as they got miaka stable, miaka started to look around for her beloved cousin, and *gasped*,
"BELLA!"
And pushed each of the men off of her, and ran to her cousin side where she was laying in her own blood,
"Bella why did you protect me," "you should of let them stab me," hotohori felt sick his wife was laying in her own blood,
"Bella!" "Don't leave me my love!" "Don't leave me!" As he started to cry for his wife,
"Come one fiery princess," "you can pull through this," "your the strongest chick I know," "come on princess come on!" As tasuki cried over Bella's body,
meanwhile In Bella's inner world,
"Bella," "Bella wake up my dear,"
"Mama," "mama midariko?"
"Yes my dear,"
"It's time for you to find out about your destiny in this world," "The dream you had about the blond haired girl with piggy tails she is your mother," "she was the priestess of byakko," "and your father was the warrior tatara," "they couldn't keep you," "so I was chosen to give you a proper body and family,"
"but byakko is still inside of you," "so you are somewhat of a god," "but he watched over you as a protecter would," "and if needed he would come out and help," "like I would," "he thinks of you as his daughter." "like I think of you as my daughter,"
"but your mother is suzuno oosugi the volturi found her and brought her back to about 29 was far as they could bring her back," "and changed her," "she adapting as a newborn so far,"
"Thank you midariko,"
"your body is about to heal yourself," "but wait I want you to meet your other protecter while I have you here since you know everything,"
Byakko appeared before Bella, his hair was up in a pony tail long and pupleish hair his eyes where purple and he had armor on, as he knelt down to me and bowed,
"I'm glade we finally we could meet my child,"
"Please byakko don't bow treat me normal," "if I call you father like I do with aro and Marcus,"
"Yes you may," "since you now know everything," "you will now be able to use your angel wings," "you have tenchi blood," "your mother was a tenchi," "even though she was a priestess she had her tenchi blood," "I'm happy be able to young again," "now your father must have that chance next,"
"oh and your grand piano and violin was transported to a room of the palace," "thank's to taiitskun,"
"True we have to plan that later," "and thank you,"
"Ok until next time,"
"Yes next time," in a flash she was sent back to her body,
meanwhile out of Bella's inner world,
A bright pink light made everone move and made Bella lift off the ground, they watched as the most beautiful majestic angel wing's came out of her back they where silver with pink tips, She landed back on the ground, the three of the ran up to her,hotohori gathered his love of his life in his arms,and shook her awake,
"Bella my angel," "are you okey?" Bella opened her eyes and smiled up at her husband,
"Yes I am now," "I'm the daughter of the priestess of byakko and the warrior tatara," hotohori smiled at that,
"but I was reborn in the other world because they couldn't keep," "me and my mother was a pure tenchi," "hints the wings," going back to her human form,
"but did anyone figure out who had the flute?"
"Oh yeah!" "The flute!" "Hahahahaha!"
"Miaka you had a airhead moment didn't you,"
nodding to what her cousin said, they all looked toward at the person who was walking towards them, the young man walk forth with a flute in his right hand,
hotohori gave tasuki his Bella not like he wanted to and confronted the young boy,tasuki thought it was his lucky night to hold Bella in his arms,he was broken out of his gleeful thoughts when miaka spoke up,
"So you been playing the flute this whole time?" The young man nodded,
"I projected my life force into the flute to help stop the bats," "so you guys had a better shot at them,"
"So thing's should be fine now," "and so will your friend over there," "ugh,"
"Oh no!" "Are you ok?"
Miaka dashed towards the young man when she saw him collapse,Hotohori neared miaka to check on the young man,
"Hang on there," "young man,"
miaka eyes traveled down his tattered body until her eyes ended up on the red marking on his leg,
"Look it's the mark of suzaku!," a smug tasuki came over with a sleeping Bella in his arms,
"So your a suzaku warrior?" The young man nodded,
"Yes," "my name is chiriko," "I use to live in a village near here," "but the kutou army destroyed my home village and I'm the only one who-,"
"You are the only one who survived the Burning of the village," hotohori finished his sentence for the young man, now known as chiriko, as tasuki adjusted Bella in his arms,
"Well let's go back to tamahome's place now," "so we can go get some sleep before we head out in the morning,"
hotohori gave miaka a gentle smile, then he started to glare at the smug look and the way tasuki was holding his wife and then he noticed where his hand was squeezing,
"Thats it!" Hotohori got up, and he punched tasuki,and took his wife from his arms,
"How dare you grab my wife ass," "you filthy pervert," hotohori glared at tasuki and punched him again, and kissed his wife's forehead,
"But she has a nice ass you know," "it's hard to ignore," "geez sorry man,"
"It's forgive don't do it again,"
"Fine" "fine,"
meanwhile In the kutous palace,
"Well the suzaku seven has been all gathered," "I imagine that they are all jumping with joy for finding them all," "oh that won't last for long," "I'll make sure of that," the room was filled with chirping birds,nakago smirked evilly,
"Oh," "priestess of suzaku this game has only began," "so don't think you have won just yet,"
"Sir," "there is one more thing you might wish to know," Nakago turned to the assassin, and signaled for him to continued,
"The priestess of the shikion is the daughter of the priestess of byakko and the warrior tatara," "and other than she in a powerful priestess and a half demon," "her true mother was a tensh," "she have her tenchi blood flowing threw her vain's," "and it was unlock and she has the god byakko protecting her as well," "this was found out before the seventh warrior showed up," nakago smiked,
"You may go now,"
"Yes sir,"
"My" "my," "my little Bella you are quite a interesting girl are you," "such a shame I can't have you," "which make it all the more arousing and attractive,"
With the voltori keisuke, tetsuya and suzuno and the cullen's
"Well why aren't our family growing isn't it brothers," aro stated
"Yes i must agree," "glad we accomplished the spell on making suzuno young," caius said
"Thanks to midariko and byakko help," "they are going to try to dig around and get info from taiitsuku or ask her to get us in," stated Marcus,
"And with that spell that byakko gave us for making copy's of ourselves while we are away it will be perfect," "plus we have to congratulate out little one on her marriage," aro st stated,
"True," "let's continue on reading," stated esme.
meanwhile with miaka and the others,
"Goodbye everybody!" "Please take care of yourselves and be good!" Tamahome's father nodded and smiled wildly at them,
"Me and my family will never forget the kindness that you have given us," "and your cousin has given us," "we will use the stuff that lady Bella has set up for us," "we are forever in her debt," nuriko smiled and waved his hand,
"Oh no worry's," "we just wish to see you happy," "that what Bella wishe's as well," they all raised a eye brow in confusion at nuriko, and he continued to explain what he meant,
"Well," "Bella said she had to go do something this morning and didn't say what," "I didn't even know she had angel wings until this morning," "until she explain to me what they where from," and shrugged, everyone just remained silent,
shippo started to perform some tricks to make the little kids feel better since they look so sad that Bella wasn't there,nuriko approached hotohori who already mounted his horse,
"I wonder what Bella doing," "and you have to admit those wing's are something to get use to,"
"I'm not sure where she went off to," "but I must admit that the wings made her beauty all the more alluring," nuriko and tasuki nodded to that one,
"Well," "at least we got all the suzaku seven now!" "I can't hardly believe it," "your highness," "and it's going to be some getting use to as Bella as empress," hotohori steered his horse as they where about to leave,
"We have been blessed with a lot of things nuriko," just as miaka was about to walk away, yuiren tugged on her skirt,
"Oh don't leave yet," "please miss," "please tell Bella nee san I want to see her," "too," miaka looked down at the little girls puppy dog eyes looking right up at her,
"Oh yuiren," as he tried to pry his sister off miaka,
"Now yuiren," "stop this right now," "you show the priestess some respect,"
"But she is big brothers wife!" "She should stay with us forever right?," "and we didn't even say goodbye to Bella nee san,"
"Yuiren let go now!".
"No!" "No!" "no!" "No!,"
chiriko was watching the two and decide to play his flute, before he could even play he was hit in the back of the head with a rock that zapped him, and Bella flew down and did a few flips In air and landed in her new customized outfit, all the males had to cover them selves, She had a had full of freshly picked flowers, and new clothing for everyone,
"Did a little princess call out for me,"
as Bella spread her wings out full length and the sun hit of them,yuiren took the flowered and hugged Bella,everyone was shocked at her appearance but enjoyed it a little to much, bella marched over to chiriko as he put his flute away,
"You young man," "do not play that for a kid and put her asleep like that," and punched him on the head,
"I'm sorry mrs Bella," her pointed ear's twitched and nodded Bella called dios over since no one didn't notice him come back, bella started to pass out each package out, and the last one was for yuiren, as Bella places the crown on her head and bowed to the little girl, and handed her a new doll, yuiren and the kids ran up and knocked her over on the ground,tamahomes father came up and saved the poor girl,
"Are you ok mrs Bella,"
Bella only nodded and whispered in his ear, and his eyes teared up and he picked the demoness tenshi priestess and swung her around,
"Oh thank you so much," "you didn't have to." "Your a blessing,"
"It was me and my husband's idea so you can have a better Home," "the builders will start tomorrow," "you will have all new things everything," "Now we must say goodbye," "farewell for now,"
Tamahomes father bowed to both Bella and the man on the horse since he knew who they where, and forever in there debt,
meanwhile back at the konan palace,
"Daaaaaaaaahhhhhh!," "i think this job is so boring and lonely and I'm going crazy-,"
chichiri was still pretending to be hotohori, even though he sooo jealous that Bella in empress now,as he snapped back to normal when one of the emperors advisers came in,
"Your highness,"
"Yes what can I do for you?" He was able to get hotohori's voice perfectly,
"We have been informed that the priestess of suzaku and the priestess of the shikon your lovely empress has arrived to the city with quite a entourage-," with that said, hotohori was gone in a poof,leaving a confused adviser behind,
"Um, sire?"
Just at the gates of the palace hotohori ran at lighting speeds,with another one of his famous *poof's*, he reverted back being chichiri and squeezed Bella in a huge bare hug,
"WELCOME BACK NO DA!" Miaka smiled at chichiri as he was smothering her cousin,
"Yes we made it chichiri," "where alive now let go," "your cutting off my breathing,"
as bella started to turn purple,chichiri let go of her and bowed to the new empress, and Bella smacked him in the head,
"Don't bow idiot," "treat me normal," "like you always have even though I'm the empress you can treat me the same,"
"Sorry no da," "I'll do that," everyone else arrived, tasuki pointed a shaking finger at the fox faced monk
"What in the world is that!" Nuriko smiled at tasuki and replied,
"He's chichiri," "he one of the suzaku seven likes us," chiriko spoke up,
"This place is so magnificent," "I can't even believe we got into the palace so easy!" Bella was still talking to chichiri about everything, shippo and shiori and rin and the two nekkos went into the palace to do what ever do inside, then mistukake noticed something that no one else didn't,
"Hotohori missing," "he must of gotten lost or something," tasuki was looking around and realized the young man was missing, and went over to Bella,
"Hey were you husband at princess?" And he grabbed her ass, Bella punched him in the face and didn't answer him, nuriko looked at them in disbelief and glared at tasuki,
"Wow," "you haven't figured it all out yet haven't you," "he is none other than-," he was cut off by hotohori himself with a Bella dangling off his back,
"That's ok nuriko," they all looked up and saw a self important man going down the stairs with a bella dangling off of his back, with people bowing to both of them, chichiri called up to both of them,
"Welcome back you highnessess!" "No da!" "I'm so glad you two made it back safe and sound," "and congrats on the union between you two," "the whole of konan been buzzing with joy over it," "no da!" Chiriko, mistukake, and tasuki, got the biggest bomb shell of their life and they thought they shit their selves,
"What the hell he's the emperor!" "And, and she...she the freaking empress!" Bella couldn't help but laugh at their looks,
After composing themselves they went and had a fabulous banquet in celebration for the marriage of hotohori and Bella, and for finding all the suzaku seven, they sent all the royal consorts since they are not needed now and never again,
all the warriors except for tamahome was seated around the table filled with different types of foods to many to even name, hotohori sat at the head of the table and Bella sat at the other end of the table, and ready to start to strategize on how to get tamahome back from kutou,
"Now then," "we must figure out now to get tamahome back here to konan?"
Tasuki, mistukake, chiriko where staying quiet the whole time, they still was shocked that he was the emperor and Bella was the empress, tasuki looked horrified than the rest of them, he did the worst out of all three of them,
"I hit the emperor and yelled at him," "and worst off I violated the empress," "but how could you not," "she one hot chick man," trying to rid his thought,until he felt a pork bun hit
the side of his head, he saw Bella smile kindly at him, the he look at hotohori as he smiled kindly as well,
"Relax," "our friends," "we are still the same people you traveled with," "I'm still one of the suzaku seven," "and Bella is still the same person you know," then his voice went serious again as he addressed the all,
"The main issue is to retrieve suzaku scroll," "the universe of the four gods," "and as well as tamahome," then hotohori turned to miaka,
"The scroll contain's the information of how you summon suzaku," "I only can remember some of it," "we must find a way in and get it with out causing a war with kutou," miaka spoke up right away after that was said,
"I'll go and get it!" The others gave her a concerned looked,
"I will go to kutou and get tamahome," "and figure out how to get the scroll back as well,'' hotohori looked at her like she was crazy and he knows Bella will be dragged into this, with a straight face he asked,
"What do you mean miaka?"
"It was all my fault that it got taken in the first place," "so it only right that I go and bring it back,"
"But..." Hotohori's words where cut off by chichiri,
"I can go along as well," "but I think we should discuss with tamahome about the whole operation," "no da," that got miaka attention,
"Tamahomes having a operation?"
"I might as well go with her," "knowing my dear cousin she will get herself hurt or killed," everyone attention was turned onto Bella at the other end of the table,
"Bella my angel are you sure you wish to do this," "I will agree with you but be sure in what your doing," "they are probably still after you," "and more so since you are the empress now," Bella smiled at her husbands concern for her,
"Yes I am sure on this," "miaka need's me and she can't fight," "and if she go's to miaka land or go be a air head zone," "she pretty much screwed," "and I wish not to lose no more family my love,"
hotohori understood her words and agreed,"he understood about her not wanting to lose more family," "he just didn't want to lose his love and his wife,"
"Hey!" "What a freaking minute!" "I know your the empress in all fore the pass two months!" "But why in the world is kutou also is after princess here other than what her title is," Bella glared at the stupid bandit,then nuriko face palmed at the stupidity of these three,
"Your kidding me aren't you?" "You kidnapped Bella," "and you still don't know who she is?" "This is the most amusing thing ever," nuriko and Bella started to laugh,
tasuki was about to stomp on the table where all the carefully Arranged food,
"What the hell don't I know?" "Huh?" "Come on tell me!" Chichiri laughed nervously and stated,
"Well tasuki," "other than she is the empress," "she is the legendary shikon no tama miko," tasuki shut up as passed up along with the three other, Bella and nuriko couldn't help it, that was funny,
Meanwhile in kutou,
Tamahome looked out the window and thought of his love,
"I love you so much,"
"Geez," "these chicks from the other world are so aggressive,"
"Oh why can't you forget that bitch and her silly games",
"Even when her best friend is sick on her death bed," ''she acts like she couldn't care and so cold hearted," "girl's you can't live with them and you can't live with out them," "they are the most confusing thing on earth that we can never figure out," *sighing*, just as a thought crossed his mind, like something his calling his,
"Tamahome!" "Tamahome!" "You there tamahome!" "Can you here me?"
meanwhile outside of the room
Nakago was waltzing down the hall being noisy, he stopped when something went a crossed his scenes that shouldn't be there,
"So the suzaku warriors are planning to make their move to rescue their comrade,"
meanwhile back with everyone in konan,
Miaka was getting ready to see tamahome, while hotohori and Bella went to their chambers to de moralize it, in hopes that she would come back alive or wounded or captured so they just wished to be in each other company for a while,
To be continued
