A/N Aaaaaahhhhhhh! FINALLY! Here we are as promised! My lovely's it's finally the next installation of this story! I'm so excited for where I'm taking this story, I hope you enjoy and love it as much as I do! On to the chapter!

  
      Your eyes took in the ever growing shape of your beloved home- Huaguo Shan- Mountain of Fruit and Flowers. Lifting your head up, you looked to your husband. A smile decorated his face at seeing his home again; his eyes glanced down to yours before his smile widened. His arms wrapped around you and pulled you closer as he said, "I'm so happy to have you back, and to see everyone at home."

      You nodded your head, adding, "It has been far too long since I've been able to see all the little ones." Sun laughs before he adds, "Don't you mean being swarmed by the little ones? Last I recall, you could never go anywhere without a small monkey attached to your leg or tail!" His words brought a smile to your face as you imagined the picture. Giggling, you playfully stated, "Ugh. My legs hurt just picturing it!"

   Sun grins down at you before leaning his head down; pressing his lips to yours, he kisses you softly. Pulling away he gently mumbles, "Hopefully the little ones won't take up all your time." He smirks down at your confused face before he continues, "My sweet, I plan on making up for all those 500 years we were separated." You blinked hard at his words before your cheeks lit on fire; you could feel the heat in your ears and your tail was stock stiff. Seeing your flustered form your lover's smirk widened even more, his voice teased, "What's the matter darling? Did my words embarrass you?~"

     Mustering a glare, you tried to threaten Sun through a stuttered, "S..Stop it! I'll push you off this cloud! Don't test me!" Hearing your "threat" Sun burst out laughing, it was one you hadn't heard in a long time. The last time he really laughed like this was when he pranked me before he left. Your annoyance melted as you softly smiled at your chuckling husband. His snickering had calmed down before he looked at you and playfully teased, "Right, right. I'm sure you would love, but let's not resort to violence. We have more important things at the moment."

    You raised a brow in confusion before he sighed and turned your head forward. Your eyes widened as you saw your home in all its glory. Sun rested his head on yours as he whispered, "We're home my sweet." You smile was wide as the cloud set you both down on the beach. Sun dismissed it with a wave before he took your hand in his and led you forward. This is it! We're finally home! Oh, my beloved subjects, I've missed you all so much! Not wanting to waste a second more, you excitedly pulled Sun towards the loud waterfall. Your tail waved back and forth as you saw the majestic falls.

      This is it! Our home is right beyond this water. Sun watched your excited form with a fond smile before he stated, "Well this sure feels familiar. Doesn't this bring you back?" You turned to him and nodded, "It sure does! The last time we did this was when we were still young monkeys!" Sun smirks down at you before he grins; squeezing your hand in his, he looks at you and asks, "If I jump through this waterfall, would you follow me like you did all those years ago?"

    You laughed at his question before you squeezed his hand back; your eyes were soft as you replied, "If I was crazy enough to follow you then, than I'm still crazy enough to follow you now." Your voice was playful as you teased, "Besides, someone has to put up with you, and that's something I wouldn't wish on anyone else." Your lover rolls his eyes at your last comment before he grins impishly. Oh no, what's he gonna do now? Before you could blink, Sun swept you off your feet and held you in his arms. He smirked down at you before he yelled, "No backing out now love! You're stuck with me for the rest of our immortal lives!" Holding you close, Sun jumps straight through the roaring waterfall.

    The icy, crisp water rushes over you both, soaking you each throughly. The suddenness of Sun's actions causes you to sputter as he passes through the fall. The heaviness from the falling water felt like it was pushing you down. However, you knew this wasn't the same for your husband, he didn't seemed phased by it in the slightest. His arms held you gently as he emerged out from the rushing water curtain. Your sight no longer being obstructed by the water, focused on the dark tunnel. While it was hard to make out anything at first, your eyes quickly adjusted to darkness.

    Your blown out pupils quickly noticed a dim glow farther ahead. You grinned at the soft light, your lover noticed the soft glow too before he gently set you down. That glow! We're getting closer! Your body was bursting from excitement as you eagerly grabbed Sun's hand in yours. Your actions brought a soft chuckle from your lover as he gazed down at you with love. Squeezing your hand softly, he followed your lead towards the iridescent glow.

      Even with the 500 years you were absent from here, your body moved through the tunnel effortlessly. Before you knew it, you both had reached the light's source. Without hesitation, you and your husband walked through the threshold. Instead of darkness greeting you like before, millions of tiny twinkles lit up around you. Your bodies became bathed in a gentle blue gleam. Your eyes shifted up to see the millions of glowing flickers. They almost appeared to be tiny stars, but they were actually various crystals littered throughout the tunnel.

      "No matter how many times I've been in this cavern, this never gets old." Your words caused Sun to shift his eyes to you. He gently smiled before he said, "I can say the same thing for you, my love." You smiled at your husband's words before you continued forward. The twinkling crystals provided the light you needed to keep walking. The two of you walked in silence, no conversation needed with the peaceful atmosphere. Your eyes took in the sight of serene glimmers before focussing on the end of the cavern.

    The iridescent glow gets dimmer and dimmer as you near the back of the tunnel. The passage turns black again as you both move forward. A couple of seconds pass before slithers of light fall through tiny cracks of vines. The leaves were thick enough to obscure majority of the light, but some still made it through. You turned your head to Sun, a smile lit your face as you said, "This is it love! We're here!" Sun huffed amusedly before saying, "Well what are we waiting for?" Realizing he was right, your hand brushed the vines aside; the light now fully shining on you both.

      Stepping through, you pulled your husband alongside you as you exited the passage. The sight before you, brought small tears to your eyes. Mountaintops bore over the horizon as trees clustered together. Various trees stood higher than the others; flora littered the floor in beautiful colors. Rushing water could be heard as more waterfalls and streams dotted the mountains. To the untrained eye, there was nothing but vegetation, however, you knew better. Your eyes focused on the nearest cluster of trees. Hidden in plain sight, the perfect trick. Sun saw the same trees you were looking at before he quickly grabbed you.

     Carrying you in his arms, he summoned a cloud before flying towards the trees. You laughed as your arms wound around his neck. Your eyes watched with glee as you both soared over the tree tops and descended on the other side. Sun's feet touched the ground before he placed you down too. Grabbing your hand, he marched forward toward the sets of cottages littered on the floor and among the trees. Both of you came upon a monkey tending to dirty laundry. Seeing their outfit, you identified the monkey a female. Most likely a mother cleaning and repairing sullied clothes. Approaching her, the two of you looked at each other before gently clearing your throats.

     "Excuse me M'am." The female lifted her head to you both, saying, "Yes?" Once her eyes locked onto your forms and Sun's armor she gasped out, "Could it be?! Is it really you my King and Queen?!"
