Dust collected on the frame of the bed. The once small body of the girl, had grown in place she thought that will never grow ''I think it's finally time'' Hakuyuu rubbed Hakuren back ''But what if she wakes up?'' ''It's been a year now. She won't wake up'' Hakuren held the needle that would stop her heart

''She was brave and strong. She would want to go out like this, then be stuck like this'' Kouen bushed Nova hairs behind her ears ''I never talked to her, before. But when she held me that time, I felt safe'' Kaililato tears dripped into the red flowers she held. Koumei didn't meet anyones eyes looking down at the floor 

''Hakuren, do you have anything to say?'' Hakuren shock his head, lining the needle up with her vein ''You sure?'' Hakuren drag the little into her paled skin ''I-- I'd... Me too. I liked you too'' When the blue liquid was about to reach her blood

Nova other hand grabbed his hand. Her red eyes snapped open, looking into Hakuren soul ''Nova!'' Hakurne pulled the needle out. Jumping onto the bed, hugging her tightly ''Your awake! I can't believe you're awake!'' 

Kaililato jumped onto the bed ''yay!'' she cheered hugging her under Hakuren's body. Kaililato had grown atachted to Nova over the months. The glow in Nova ears finally faded

''She was cursed'' Mei, Hakuyuu know wife muttered in the corner of the room ''Hmm?'' Hakuyuu placed his hand on her hip ''Her rings started to glow since falling asleep right? Maybe the Djinn saved her, to have Hakuren confess the feelings he could never do before'' Mei smiled when Nova looked at the two couple confused 

''His Djinn controls wrath and wisdom'' ''It must've had the wisdom of knowing their fate, and changed it. Nova couldn't have survived that injury alone'' Hakuyuu smirked ''You're always the one to think about these things'' She rolled her eyes with spite on her tongue ''that's why I was chosen to be your Empress'' 

''How long was I asleep?'' Nova asked looking at the aged faces of everyone ''A year'' Hakuren helped her sit up. Nova groaned when her body creaked and popped 

''Mudads! Royo, come in here'' Kouen ran outside the room, calling them in. Mudads rushed in first, locking eyes with her ''My little flower!'' he cheered, tackling her back into the bed ''Careful! You're going to hurt her!'' Hakuren happy tears slipped over onto the bed

Mudads rubbed their nose together before placing they're foreheads to together ''Whats got everyone into a crying mess? Don't like I died. I only took a nap'' ''For a year'' Royo hissed her forehead after Mudads moved his body

''And you did die'' Kouen shrugged it off, pouring her some tea ''We where finally put you to rest'' ''You'll going to kill me?'' Koumei nodded ''And you?'' Nova looked down at Kaililato on the bed ''Aren't you the princess of Kai?'' ''Yep! I just want to say thank you for saving me!'' Nova hissed at her loud voice 

''Can I get out of bed?'' Nova flicked the blankets off her. Hakuren grabbed her shoulders ''You shouldn't move. You haven't been up for a year--'' ''Move out the way. it's better for her to move know'' Mudads grabbed Nova waist lifting her off the bed

''I am a prince. I said stop!'' Hakuren snapped. Mudads stopped ''Are you really pulling rank on me? As soon as she woke up? I'm trying to help her'' ''Put her back in bed! She can't move!'' Nova was taken back by Hakuren growing angry ''Hakuren, what has happened? This isn't you'' Hakuyuu sighed ''I think that's enough for today, Brother''

''No, I'm not leaving'' Hakuren grabbed Nova off Mudads ''Don't--'' ''Touch her I'll have you extued'' Shock took everyone ''I have fought and stayed by your side-'' ''Leave! Everyone out!'' Hakuren pulled his sword out, the star growling brightly

The younger ones where heated out by Royo, who shut the door after her ''I said everyone'' ''Mei, Mudads'' Mudads held the door open for the future Empress ''Brother--'' ''Out!'' Hakuren threw Nova onto the bed ''Ow!'' She cursed pulling herself up on all fours to flip around on her back

Hakuyuu sighed, faking the leave for the door. Leaning forward he grabbed the sword. Twisting it out of Hakuren hand. He rested it on Hakuren throat ''Brother, clam down'' Hakuren calmed down when the sword was removed form him. The rage of losing a love one, ran wide in the swords magic. Hakuren couldn't take holding it some days

''I'm sorry'' ''Go. I'll attend to Nova. And say that to them'' Hakuren glanced at Nova fearful face than lift through the door ''What has happened to him?''

''Losing you, missed him up'' Hakuyuu helped her off the bed ''You think you can walk?'' Nova nodded using the bed as stable to take three steps ''I think I'm alright. It'll just take some time to get used to it'' 

''That good. Water, or tea?'' ''Water'' Hakuyuu gave her a cup ''There's a lot you have missed Nova. Gou, Kai, Tan, Kyshu, Mari, Hojo. The six nations, have joined Kou. In other blood or marries''

''So you're married to that lady?'' ''Mei. Yes. After you fell form the tops off the wall, and survived Father, made a general of the south flank. But when you fell into that sleep, I took over your flank. The Royals of Gou and Kai where killed. And my mother'' 

Nova nodded sitting back down on the bed ''Is evil...'' ''Huh?'' ''She is doing well'' Hakuyuu rubbed his ear lob. A signal that they'll being listing to ''No more children, but Kouen father has had three daughters. Kouho, Kouran and Kounami. Of two different mothers of course. One is coming down with a other child I think''

Nova filled her cup up again ''Kouen has found a djinn. He leaves tomorrow to capture a other one'' ''Have you found another one?'' ''No. But Judal has said, he'll bring up one... Hakuren has become angry, form his Djinn. I do not want to become like that if, something happened to Mei. She can fight, but I worry'' 

''She seems like a fine Empress'' ''You haven't meet her?'' ''When am I wrong about someone?'' Hakuyuu chuckled helping her stand again ''Just tell me when you get tried. I'll take you to the kitten. They're been a few changes in the palace'' 

He was right, everything was backwards. The Kitten was in the East Wing, and know was in the North Wing. Mei with her hands in her sleeves, followed next to Hakuyuu

''Jia!'' Nova yelled seeing the old woman. More winkles  came under her heavy eyes ''Nova my little cupcake!!'' Jia dropped everything she was doing and wrapped her into her flowery chest. The old kitten stuff came out of their sections ''She's wake!'' ''nova!'' Soon Nova was covered in bodies. Maids placing by, heard her name, than the red hair. Soon joining the group hug

''She was deeply loved I see'' ''The kitten crew, raised Nova. When she first arrived she didn't know how to speak, they taught her every chance they could spare'' 

''Move move! Lets get food into this girl! Make her favourite!'' ''On it!'' ''yes, ma!'' everyone dropped the royal food to feed Nova. Every food and plate you could imagine was on the small table in front of Nova. Some plates had to be stacked to fit

''All for me?'' Nova questioned ''Anything you can't finish we will'' Jia chuckled ''Everyone dish, for are special girl'' ''I don't know if I can Jia...'' Nova bit into a piece of cake first. Hopping not to upset her quiet belly. When it hit her tongue. She devoted the rest. Her eyes lit up. The loud grumble of her stomach echoed the kitten

''that came form her?'' a young female questioned. Mei took three blinker each time watching more and more food despair. Everyone plate was licked off. Nova belly popped out like a old man's bear belly

Hakuyuu chuckled when she burped like one too ''That was great'' Jia patted her belly ''You'll grow a hole foot with that much food in your belly! ahah!'' Nova laughed alone ''Soon I'll reach your height!'' Jia blue hair fell past her big shoulders. The cuffs in her braids, clicking together ''Oh you just will''
