Pucca: Funny Love (Garu x Pucca Fanfiction)

How dare he, leave me standing here on the docks, the sensation of his gentle kiss still lingering on my lips as I watch his boat disappear in the distance.

I refused to believe it. This wasn't goodbye, I knew in my heart it wasn't. This was only see you soon.

With Garu gone, I knew I had to take on his burden and protect my island in his absence. And so, I spent years training in the mountains, hardly eating as the only thing that mattered was the strength I had to build in order to carry out my love's mission.

The Silent Defender, that's what the island branded me as when I started to protect them against natural and unnatural disasters. I haven't spoken to my friends in so many years, knowing they wouldn't share my passion for becoming an honorable ninja.

Seven years. Seven years have passed and no training in the mountains or success against Tobe's ninjas could've mentally or emotionally prepared me for the heartache that was my love's return.
