The Real Empress ( Akashi Seijuro x OC )

City of Cherries

Music from the orchestra was heard around the whole hall.

The hall was decorated in flowers, red and gold colour.

Important people has come, because they wanted to see the coronation.

The beautiful girl in royal gown with Emperor's pall, which she had to pull behind herself.

She was so beautiful. She had difficult coiffure.

Her azure eyes were filled with determination and power.

She walked confidently, looking around into the eyes of her subordinates.

They had kneeled when she walked around them.

She had small smile, which did not show in her eyes.

She has came in front of the bishop of the country.

He began his speech in Latin.

The coronation was really beautiful but long.

When it finished, The new real Empress had to greet her citizens.

She came out on the balcony and looked around.

There were so many people.

She smiled and waved in manner-like-lady style.

The Empress breathed in.

" Thank you all, that you came to see my rise. I am glad to have your support. I am not strong enough to protect you. I am not strong enough to become your Empress yet. I am too young to take all responsibilities. I am too young to rule you..." she paused.

People were staring at her in disbelief. They could not understand, why is she saying such words.

" But! I can promise you, I will do the best, what I can. My father brought me, how best he could and I do not want to dissapoint him, so I promise you, I will do everything I can to become the real Empress for you. No, not the real Empress, but Your Empress, at whom you can be proud of. I promise you I will protect you with the support of my men, if our country is in danger just like my father did and died for. I promise you I will rule you wise and with kindness, my mother taught me. I will think straight with cool head but with mercy. I was in Japan these past few months and I learnt, how to respect others, so..." she breathed in.

The Empress bowed really low. " I am still inexperienced, so I will need all your power and the most, your support! Would you be so kind and lend me your help to become Your Empress! The real Empress?!!!" she rised her voice.

People stared to applaud. They screamed words, which does not make a sense, because Yukki could not hear them right. But she was satisfied with what she has heard.

"The Real Empress!!!" they shouted. "Hooray!!! Hooray!!!"

Yukki smiled and waved once again. Then she went back to the hall and further and further.

Today was the ball and she had to prepare for that.

Yeah it is going to be a tiring night.

He stood against his father.

Of course old Akashi did not want to lose his own son, his only heir.

They have made an agreement. Seijuro can marry every girl, he will choose, but his father has to approve it as well.

Seijuro did not know much about Yukki's family but according to her house, she did not look poor, so Seijuro thought, his father could approve her or he hoped, his father will.

But he could not find her. He searched for her for one year, but found nothing.

Second year of searching... Nothing!

Third year... Not even a thing.

Four... Five... Six years and still nothing!!!

Seijuro was desperate. He did not know, what to do anymore.

One day Hayama called him. " Hi Akashi!" he asked. " Still nothing?"

"No!" he said.

" I know it is hard because you lost every contact, you had. It is a bad luck your phone with her number got broken."

" Could you stop to remind me this?" he sighed.

" Well, I have a good news. Reo has found a piece of paper, which Yukki gave him with her number, where we can call her." he said happily.

Seijuro's eyes widened. He could not believe, he will be able to meet Yukki again. After these past years his hope slowly started to fade away.

" Did he call her?"

"No, we are waiting for you."

"Ok."

" Akashi! We are waiting for you at the park next to Maji burger. Hurry and come! We want to see her soon." he shouted.

Seijuro excused himself in his work and took a few days off.

***

" Sei-chan, you are late!!!." Reo said.

" Well, I am here, are not I?"

They nodded.

" We took a week off from our jobs and came here just because we want to see Yukki again."

Seijuro took the paper and dialed the number.

" Hello? Sakura's palace, Lena is speaking."

"Well hello, Akashi Seijuro. I would like to speak with Sakura Yukki. Is it possible, now?" he asked.

" Ehm, I am sorry, but Madam Yukki is busy right now and she will not be able to get in touch with you anytime soon."

" Oh and is it possible to meet her or anything? I beg you, please." he said desperately.

Lena sighed. " Well yes, it is. You can make an appointment with her."

" When? Sooner is better!"

" Oh, what about tomorrow at 8 pm?" Lena suggested.

" Yes and where?"

Lena giggled. " Come to the Sakura's palace in the city of Cherries."

" Um okey, I did not hear about it, but I will find the way there." Seijuro whispered.

Finally, we will meet again!
