The lonely queen (Fukuro)

aqua smiles "ok then so you'll be better in a few days?" she kisses him lightly. "is there anything i can do to make you feel better?"

"It'll be fine. It should only last a week at the most." Akuma said kissing Aqua back.

aqua nuzzles him "ok if your sure.." she kisses him lovingly.

"I'm sure." Akuma kisses her back lovingly.

aqua smiles and kisses back. she yawns lightly she was still tired.

"If your still tired, then you should go back to sleep. Akuma says kissing her back again.

she smiles and nuzzles him "but i want to stay up with you..." there were noises outside her door.

"Who's there?" Akuma said ready for a fight.

aquas mother opens the door and sighs "i cant find aquas father can you help me akuma.." she looks at aqua "aqua honey go back to sleep.."
aqua sighs and nods "ok mother.." she climbs back into bed.

"What do you mean you can't find him?" Akuma said walking over to Aqua's mom.

aquas mother started acting funny "i..i mean i cant find him..." her eyes kept darting to her side.

Akuma always noticed the smaller things that people never did. "Why are you eyes darting from side to side?"

aquas mother laughs lightly "n...no reason.. just please help me..." she pauses "find my husband.."

"Lets go find him then ma'am." Akuma says walking out of the room closing the door behind him.

aquas mother gets a sad look on her face. seven soilders smirk and look at akuma. "hello..."

"What is the meaning of this? Why are these soldiers here?" Akuma was unsure how to feel, but he knew that the feeling of being betrayed would be one of them.

aquas mother looks at the ground "they said they want you.. their upset that aqua is marrying you.. am sorry akuma but i couldnt give them muy daughter.."

"So this is the 'big bad demon' that Aqua's marrying? Tch. I wouldn't use you to scrape horse crap off my boot." The other soldiers laughed at that.
One of the soldiers from the back spoke up, he was carrying a tall sword. "Aqua marrying a demon only means that hell finally froze over." His tone suggested that he wasn't trying to joke around, he began to draw his sword. "The name is Shi. I will be your executioner."

aqua sits up and opens the door because she heard noises. "whats going on out here..." she blinks in surprise.

Seeing Aqua, Shi sheaths his sword, the sword must be at least 5' 5", including the handle. "Nothing Queen Aqua. We were talking about your wedding. Go back to bed, we want this to be a surprise for you." Shi was an amazingly talented liar.

"It won't be much of a surprise if you hear about it now will it Aqua?"

aqua smiles and giggles lightly "thank you shi!" she hugs akuma "i'll go back to bed." she kisses him and walks back into her room.
aquas mother follows after her.

"Listen. I know your weaker then you should be. Don't think I won't take advantage of that when we fight on the day of your wedding. Demons lose all of their abilities after the mate. It only last a year sadly. But that includes your demon healing, so in two weeks, you will die by my sword." Shi did seem strong, Akuma was actually somewhat afraid of him.

"Fine then. On the day of mine and Aqua's wedding, we will fight. If I lose, I die. It's the same for you though. If I win though, I marry Aqua. If you win-" Shi interrupted Akuma.

"If I win then I marry Queen Aqua. Those will be the terms." Shi walked away, Akuma was forced to accept the rules.

aqua smiles as she curls up in bed she was so excited. aquas mother looked out the window sad.

The other soldiers followed Shi. "Captain Shi, wait up!" one of the six soldiers yelled sense they seemed to be falling behind.

Captain? As in Captain of the soldiers? It won't be an easy fight that's for sure. Akuma thought as he walked back to Aqua's room.

aqua sits up and yawns "your back that was quick.." she giggles lightly and lays down tired.
