Holding her hand as tight as he could without hurting her, he cried into his free hand. Just outside the wood door Hakuyuu sighed with Mudads next to him ''You think she'll live?'' Mudads shrugged

''His djinn saved her for a reason. She must have a purpose in this world'' ''She has survived death two times'' Mudads watched Royo come closer and closer ''The execution is about to bring. Is Hakuren still in there?''

Hakuyuu bit his lip, before stepping into the room leaving the two bodyguards ''How are you?'' Mudads asked looking down at her bandaged legs ''I am well. You head?'' Mudads bent over a bit, so Royo could look at the deep cut

''It'll leave a little scar'' ''Don't one like Novas'' ''If she lives...'' Royo's world slurred to a stop, when Hakuyuu and Hakuren walked out. Hakuren face was pulled up in anger, his eyes puffy from all the crying. Mudads and Royo dropped back behind the two

''Father'' Hakuyuu greeted stepping into the counties view ''Boys'' Hakutoku toothly smiled, dropped seeing his youngest boy. He knew he couldn't say anything to make him feel better, and patted his shoulder ''Let's end this war'' He gave the signal for it to start

''King Go Toshi! Princess Gako! Of the Gou Kingdom of Golden Skies, will die this day!'' Hakuren slouched in his chair, zoning the man out 'She needs me. I need to get back to Nova, she'll be lonely all by herself. What if she dies alone? I can't let her die alone' When Hakuren went to stand to leave, Mudada gently pushed him back down

''Stay there Prince'' Hakuren went to snap his head off when something catch his ear ''Queen Chyou! Will marry Lord Koutoku, and tie together the Gou kingdom and Kou Empire!'' Hakuren eyes shoot towards Koutoku, and his sinner smile. 

Besides him, was Kui Ren, Kouen's and Koumei's mother. Queen Tomatsu, from Tan. And know Queen Chyou with tears pouring down her cheeks. Hakuren remember her as a strong kind woman, she won't survive with Koutoku as her husband ''Father that's don't right'' Hakuyuu hissed under his breath ''it has already been decided'' 

''These sinners will die! The Kou Empire will become a hole!'' The large man brought his sword down on the princess and King ''Why couldn't Hakuyuu marry Princess Gako?'' ''She tried to kill me when we offed it'' 

The next lot of prisoners were brought out next ''You'll find the next married rich'' Kouen hissed in anger. His thirst balling ''Kouen please, calm down. You shouldn't let your anger get to you'' Kui's face was pale ''But father, is marrying another woman again why aren't you mad!?'' Kui coughed into her sleeve ''It's just who things are''

Kui looked away from her boy, to the Kai royals ''Lord: Kunimichi! Mistress Ah-Lam! Prince Kailasam! Prince Kailash! Of The Kai Kingdom of the Sea, will be put to death, by order of renewing the land of Kai! The Kou Empire will be blessed with the Princess Kaililato! She will marry into the royal family!''

Hakuren looked down at Kouen ''Not me, Koumei'' 'Him?'' ''Correctly they are talking in the library'' ''It's always your family'' Hakuyuu hit his hand ''Shh, Hakuren. We have are marries lined up'' ''We haven't even meet them. His family knows how they're fated to be with'' 

''Boys, that's enough'' Gyokuen on the other side of Hakutoku mumbled through her sleeve ''Yes mother'' The boys where both silent

''With the bad apples gone! The Kou Empire will open it's boarders to everything in the terrier! The Kingdoms of Kyshu, Mari, and Hoji will join the blood line of the Kou!'' Hakuyuu did some quick math before shooting his eyes up to his father

''Father'' ''You two are too, will marry the Princess of Mari and Hojo. Your brother will marry the Princess of Kyshu when they are both of age'' ''We have never meet them'' There mother giggled ''I have meet the girls. You will like them''

''You might like them mother, but we might not'' Hakuren hissed in angry, of being sold off like a woman ''The summer festival is happening in two mouths. You will meet them than'' Hakuren growled rolling his eyes ''See don't always my family'' 

''I'm done with this'' Mudads didn't stop Hakuren form leaving ''Royo follow him'' ''Yes, Emperor Hakutoku'' Before Royo left she heard the chanties of the people ''Long live the Kou Empire! Long live Emperor Hakutoku! Long live the Kou Empire! Long live Emperor Hakutoku!'' They chanted over and over again

Hakutoku held up his hand waving to the people ''mama!'' Prince Hakuyruu ran past Royo to his mother. She picked him up, mumbling a couple things to him, before waving to the people behind Hakutoku

Hakuren gasped when he walked into the room. Princess Kaililato sat on the side of the bed, swinging her legs reading a book out loud. Koumei was making tea on the desk to the side of the room ''Prince Hakuren--'' ''What is she doing in here? She curse of this mess'' Hakuren stormed towards Princess Kaililato ''I heard reading to someone who doesn't wake up, helps them!'' Kaililato specked out

''I was hoping to help her! She was trying to stop the war. I know she was going to use me, but she saved my life when I feel off the wall! I want to help her'' Kaililato grabbed the back of her dress, throwing her off the bed ''You can help her, by leaving'' Koumei helped Kaililato off the floor 

''Prince Hakuren'' Royo hissed. Hakuren pulled his chair closer to Nova bed, taking her hand up ''Don't worry Nova, I won't leave you'' The ear rings Nova wore, glowed a bright blue star ''I'm glade you can hear me'' The rage in his face, fell into a happy sadness ''I will never leave you'' 

''I'm sorry Princes, he's not in the best mind state'' Royo bushed the dirt off her dress ''Don't cry'' Royo rubbed the tears off her checks ''His mean'' Koumei rubbed her back ''Let's go back to the library, I can get the maids to bring tea to us there'' her brown hair flicked around her face, when she shock her head ''No. I want hot chocolate'' ''We can get that than'' Koumei lead her out the room

''Koumei, its been done'' Royo whispered in his ear ''Understood'' ''Oh Princess, what has happened?'' Aki asked outside the door. Kaililato sniffled ''Nothing'' Aki shrugged flowing the two royals. After saving Koumei life, she became his guard and royal maid. Like Nova, before she bumped to General after the war
