I stood above the swallowing darkness of the pit below me.
'This is it.' I told myself 'This is what has to be done.' I looked up at Enma in the sky. We had tried words. We had tried force. The darkness that had controlled him was to strong. I sighed to myself. Everyone below, barely alive and trying to dodge his attacks, they had tried to talk me out of this. But like with Enma's possesion, they failed at that as well. I don't blame them though. They're trying so hard. Their blood sweat and tears being pride to my eyes. Especially all my pupils down below. Almost every Yokai was here. Trying to save their king. But with the power of my soul. He will be free. My place in this world has vanished. I've done my job. My final duty shall be completed.
'For our beautiful world.' I thought to myself as I let my knees buckle and I fell.
It had been 3 months since King Enma had been transformed back into his old self. He had asked who's self sacrifice had it been to bring him back. When the name Y/N reached his pointed wars he immediately demanded they be given a royal grave. Their body may have been long gone, but that was the respectful thing to do. Y/N had a grand burial. Their favourite Flowers where spread across the soil and a silver headstone had been encrypticed with their full Name, rank, and their story of sacrifice. Enma sung his praises to the Yokai.
He should've left it at that.
He then asked for a healthy rebirth for them. He should've been careful on what he wished for.
Y/N stirred at the bottom of the pit. He soul came back, but so did the familiar dark aura that had now consumed their body.
A mere month later and rumours of Y/N returning had reached everyone by now. Y/N had made their way to the kings palace. He had heard they had returned and was quick to welcome them into the castle.
"So you are my saviour?" He asked with his reward winning smile.
"Yes your majesty." They said bowing.
"It's a miracle you could return to this world!" He said happily.
"True. Although it's for a purpose." Y/N smiled.
"And that is?" He smirked. Before another breath Y/N lunged at the king. King Enma caught their hand.
"Saw it coming." He smirked triumphantly. They growled in anger and flung him back with the power of the God's.
A battle ensued with fists and auras being thrown at one another. Enma had ordered staff to stay back as half the castles interior was destroyed.
Y/N was knocked out cold. Enma stood over their limp body and said in his anger driven voice.
"Leave this body you evil thing. They aren't strong enough to beat me!" Immideitly the aura flew off leaving an almost dead Y/N on the ground. Enma picked them up bridal style and bought them to the best healing Yokai I'm the castle.
It had been a week since Y/N fought Enma, now they were fightijng off death once more. However with Enma giving them the strength with his ow aura, they woke up to the king by their side.
"Your highness?!" They asked startled. They sat up but felt their head ache take over. Enma shushed them and made them lay back down.
"How am I alive. I fell in the pit!" They asked scared.
"You don't remember?" He asked staying calm.
"Remember What!?" He sighed.
"Let your head rest. I'll tell you everything once your fully healed." He smiled. Y/N was still scared. Why were they in such a soft bed? Why were the walls golden? Why was the king wearing only a tank top and some shorts!?
"But your reward will come soon as well." King Enma explained.
"Reward? But it was for you Your Highness. I'd die a million times for you and this world." Y/N spoke determined. Enma went wide eye. But then he smiled and bent over them.
"Such loyalty is deserving of a Reward, and the best medical attention." He kissed their head lightly, making the aching go away. " And the best medicine is a kiss." He winked and left the blushing Y/N rest.
"Wait...... did he heal my entire body!?" Y/N screamed in their head as they blushed all shades of red and pink.
I know it's short. I know it's shit. I'm out of practice Okay!
