Fixing The Damage
Run P.o.v
Guard: "HALT!!! STATE YOUR BUSINESS!!!" A guard was standing between me and the gates of the largest prison in the Capital.
I arrived there after an hour riding with some carriages that would help me and some soldiers of the Revolution to escort back the people that are innocent to the Capital, and for them to regain their lives. Maybe it's too late for them to regain what was lost, but I knew that Y/n would help everyone. He's a good man, a good friend. His actions and small temper can be misjudge, but they are for good reason.
Run: "I am Run, member of The Jaegrers. I am here, under the Emperor's orders, to free some of the prisoners that are held here!"
Guards: "But this are criminals, sir! If they are freed, they can bring havoc to the Capital!"
Run: "Are you questioning the Emperor's orders?" I raised and eyebrow while glaring at him.
Guards: "Of course not, sir. Is just that there are soldiers of the Revolution behind yo-"
Run: "The battle is finished! The Revolution has won! And there is a new Emperor in the throne! If you do not stand aside, you will face punishment from the Emperor himself!" I warned him. He bowed his head with his body shaking.
Guards: "My apologies, sir!" He turned towards the gates. "OPEN THE GATES!!!" Then, the gates started to open.
Once the doors were fully opened, we started to head inside the prison. We were in the center of the field, where the prisoners are executed. The field was filled with dry blood and flies flying around.
I got off my horse, and there stood the warden, in the entrance of the doors to the premises. I walked towards him. Once I was in front of him, we both bowed to each other, then straightened up.
Warden: "Run of The Jaegers. I have heard so much about you. It is an honor." I nodded. "How may I be of service to the new Emperor?"
Run: "Where the recent prisoners that were brought here?"
Warden: "They are in the in the top floor. I will escort you there." I nodded and allowed him to go first.
We were walking up the stairs, until we got to the second floor. A lot of prisoners looked at me with greed, lust, envy, wrath. They screamed at me for being good looking or 'pretty boy'.
Warden: "QUIET YOU DOGS!!!" He hit on of the bars of the cells.
Run: "They seem lively." I commented
Warden: "Yeah. They are always like that when they see 'new blood' as they call it."
Run: "Are all prisoners like this?" He shook his head. While taking another set of stairs.
Warden: "Not all of them. The second to the fourth floor are like that. But from the fifth to the eigth are the calmer or 'innocents'." My eyes widened in surprise.
Run: "Innocents? You mean, you have them separated?" He nodded. We got to the third floor.
Warden: "I do. We first verify their mental state and their charges. If they were maniacs and ramble about everything as if they owned the place, we put them on the first three floors. If they are traumatized, saying that they were innocents, and crying because they didn't do anything, they went to the last four. Obvoiusly, the prisoners doesn't know this." We were on another set of stais, heading to the fourth floor. There was a question that I wanted to know, that came to mind after he told me about them.
Run: "Why have you done things like this?" We got to the fourth floor, and there were prisoners still taunting.
Warden: "The Revolution was the key to me make things differently. I knew that there was hope in this country, so I decided to divide them. It was only a matter of time until the new Emperor gave the order to set free the prisoners that weren't guilty of anything."
Run: "So you believe that the Revolution would win this war." We got to other set of stairs, and started heading up.
Warden: "I had faith on it. That's why I asked the guards to not kill any Revoutionary soldiers if they saw them coming here."
Run: "But I am a member of The Jaegers."
Warden: "But you were bringing soldiers of the Revolution. Also, you asked for the new prisoners, which all of them are innocents, gave away that you are going to set them free." I scoffed of how this warden was so perspective. 'No wonder he is a warden.' I thought.
We finally reach the fifth floor, and this one were filled with plea, sobs, and it felt that woe has taken this floor.
Warden: "Guards!" I guard walked past me, and other were standing behind him. "From this floor to the seventh, set the prisoners free, and help the soldiers put them in the carriages!"
Guard: "YES SIR!"
Warden: "This people has suffered enough." All the guards started to open the doors to the cells. "Run, take some men, and let go to the eigth floor." I nodded. I turned to the others, and signalled three guards to follow me.
Run: "The rest, help the civilians." They nodded. I started to follow the warden. "Is there something wrong with the eigth floor?"
Warden: "We didn't have time to analyze the prisoners, so we put them in the same cells." I got a little worried.
We went up all the other floors, and saw some guards and soldiers opening the cells. Some thank us for letting them free, and walked past us.
Finally, we reached the eigth floor, and saw some men close to the bar saying nonesense. The others were at the back, or at the corner of the back.
Run: "I believe that they are already separated." He nodded.
He opened a door to an empty cell, then opened the one that was filled with prisoners.
Warden: "ALRIGHT, THOSE THAT ARE AT FRONT, MOVE TO THE NEXT CELL!!! AND DON'T MAKE ME USE FORCE BECAUSE YOU'LL REGRET IT!!!" He took hold of his sword and gun, but didn't take them out.
One by one, they went to the other cell, until one of them, decided to play the villain. He took hold of the warden, but I intervened by sending a feather to his shoulder. He looked at me with anger, and I glared back.
Run: "Next one will be on you head if you do not comply!" I warned. "That goes for the rest of you!" They started to move without any other act of bravery.
They finally got inside the cell, and the warden closed it. I retracted my wings, and entered the cell that was filled with the innocent ones. I took a look at each one of them, trying to find the one thatv I was actually looking for. Finally, I found him.
He was sitting in a corner with his clothes all dirty and ripped, a piece of cloth over his eyes, and his long h/c hair that reached his back.
I walked towards him. The prisoners that were around him, moved away, scared. I reached him, and knelt in front of him.
Run: "Mister L/n." I tilted my head. He turned his head towards me with an eyebrow raised.
Cormac: "I believe you're mistaken, young man. So, whoever you are, get lost!" I smirked.
Run: "I am afraid I cannot. You see, the Emperor sent me, and he wants to meet you. He is eager."
Cormac: "Then tell the Emperor that I'm staying here. I'm not interested."
Run: "I believe you will. You see, he has sent me to set free the innocent prisoners to their new home. And he want you to be part of it." He raised his eyebrow even more. "I'll take you to him, but first, we must clean you for you to be presentable." I offered him my hand.
His head looked down, and was giving thought. Until he finally looked at my direction, and nodded.
Cormac: "Alright, but if I refuse, then I want to be back in my cell!"
Run: "Fair enough." I kept my hand out towards him. After a few seconds, I realized what was happening and took hold of his arm. 'Forgot that he is blind.' I thought a little embarrassed. I pulled him up, and took him out of the cell.
Wave P.o.v
I was walking towards a mansion that was owned by wealthy people. From what I've heard, this mansion once was owned by people who abducted people from the country side, and experimented on them.
Tatsumi: "Hold up!" I forgot that Tatsumi was tagging along. We finally arrived at the mansion, but he stopped in his tracks and looked at the mansion. "This is the place where my friends were killed. And where Y/n lived for most of his childhood!" My eyes widened.
Wave: "You mean that you were abducted? Like Y/n?" He shook his head.
Tatsumi: "No. I was taken like a guest because I was pennyless thanks to Leone. But my best friends were the ones who died in this place." He looked saddened.
Wave: "My condolences." He nodded.
Tatsumi: "Anyways, Y/n was taken like a personal butler for the daughter since he was seven years old, and they were 'engaged', but he said they weren't. And, one night was when we met Night Raid."
Wave: "Seems like you both have history in this place." I started to move towards the door, and he followed.
Tatsumi: "Yeah. Both from the country, taken because of lack of money, and also taken by Night Raid by force." He chuckled at the last part and I did as well.
We arrived at the doors, and was going to knock, but we heard a crash. It sounded like when a plate or cup was thrown to the floor.
???: "YOU USELESS PIECE OF GARBAGE!!! HOW COME THAT YOU WORK IN THE PALACE!!!" A male voice yelled from the other side of the door.
Without thinking, I took hold of the door knob and opened it. When I entered, I saw a fat guy, screaming at a maid.
Maid: "F-Forgive m-me!" The man took hold of her arm, and retracted raised his free hand.
Man: "Guess that I have to teach you a lesson!" He was going to hit her, but Tatsumi got behind him, and took hold of his arm.
Tatsumi: "That's not how you treat a lady, pal!" He kicked behind his leg, making the man fall. He walked towards the maid. "Are you alright?"
The maid nodded. The man started to stand up, but I delivered a kick to his face, knocking him out.
Wave: "That should keep him out of commision." I looked at the maid and she was shaken. "Can you bring all the maids that works at the palace?" She slowly nodded, and walked up the stairs.
I took hold of the man, and pulled him out of the way. Tatsumi came to my help, and put him on a chair. We backed away and looked at out small work.
Tatsumi: "Let's hope it doesn't break."
A cracking started to be heard, until a snap happened, then a thud. The chair broke, and he was laying on the floor.
Wave: "I think you jinxed it." We both chuckled.
Then, the maids that worked at the palace started to come down the stairs, and the one in the front was Kassandra, Y/n's mother.
Kassandra: "Wave?" She stood at the bottom of the stairs, and we both walked towards her. "What brings you here?"
Wave: "We are taking you back to the palace."
Tatsumi: "Well, the destroyed palace, but the Emperor will be waiting at the campsite."
Kassandra: "I don't understand. The Emperor in a campsite? What about the Minister?"
Wave: "Yeah, there's a lot to explain, but let me keep it brief. The Revolution won the battle, there's a new Emperor in the throne and a new Minister, and they are helping the people that are wounded, lost a home, and keeping them safe."
Tatsumi: "Nice in keeping it brief. Also, they are in the Revolutionary camp, which they are attending the wounded right now." They all had eyes of joy, some had tears.
Kassandra: "Then, what are we waiting for, let's go help them. I also want to see my son." She started to walk, but I stopped her.
Wave: "That's a little problem. We can't have you looking like that when you're going to see Y/n. You're free now, so I suggest that we put you something more presentable."
Maid: "That's right, you should look good to your son!" She cheered, then every maid cheered.
Then, the maids took hold of Kassandra, and took her up the stairs to change. Despite all the protest that she gave, they didn't stopped. 'Things are going according to plan.' I thought while me and Tatsumi fist bumped.
Akame P.o.v
I was with Kurome walking up a mountain, and we shared some small talks. Nothing out of the usual. What we have done, everything that has happened. It was liked we were trying to hard, because we were.
Kurome: "...Big sis?" She called to me, taking me away from my thoughts.
Akame: "Yes."
Kurome: "Have you ever regretted? Leaving the Capital?"
Akame: "No." I said bluntly. She looked down, emotionless, which I always did the same. "But I do regret leaving you. As much as I wanted for you to come with me, I always felt that I've abandoned you. And from that day forward, you never left my thoughts."
Kurome: "Despite that you wanted to kill me?" I nodded.
Akame: "Despite me wanting to kill you."
Kurome: "You are more open with your thoughts. How come?"
Akame: "It's thanks to Y/n." She nodded.
Then, she searched for something in her bag, and took out bread.
GROOOOOOOOWL
My stomach growl, and a drool escaped my mouth. She offered it to me, without thougt, I took it and took a bite. She took another bread and started eating it.
We've reached the top of the hill, and there stood a man which I don't recognize. Beside him was standing Seryu with her Imperial Arm.
???: "Kurome. Akame. You have arrived."
Kurome: "Lord. Were you waiting long?"
Lord: "I have waited what it is supposed to be waited."
Seryu: "Is Y/n alright!?" She seemed nervous and anxious.
Akame: "He's alive. You don't have to worry."
Seryu: "Is this your sister, Kurome? Akame?" Kurome nodded. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Akame." She extended her hand.
Akame: "Same." I nodded and shook it, but avoided her so she doesn't take my bread. 'It tastes good.'
Lord: "I believe that we should get going. Y/n needs my assistance with the wounded." We nodded, and started to walk the path we came from.
Y/n P.o.v
Elder: "...It hurts!"
Y/n: "I know, and I'm sorry. But it will heal your wounds." I kept lubricating the medical herbs that I made on the elders arm, which had a burn. After a few seconds, I stopped and wrapped the bandages on his arm. "This will ease the pain, and it will heal quicker than normal, but for now, rest." I finished wrapping his arm, and helped him lay down.
Elder: "Thank you, your highness." I nodded. I finished putting his head on the pillow, and went outside the tent.
I've been treating the wounded for three hours. I'm not complaining, is just that it's taken us almost sixe large tents to treat them, and the ones that are far away who got hit my Shikoutazer were also in my mind. 'It's going to be a long week.' I thought. I went to the campfire, and sat on one of the logs while pouring water in a cup.
Najenda: "Everything alright?" She sat down beside me while moving her cup towards me.
Y/n: "Just tired." I poured water on her cup. "How is everything doing on your side?" I put down the jar, and took a sip of my cup.
Najenda: "I'm managing. The people are helping each other, also Susano and Bulat are giving their all, so we might finish the reconstruction in about two weeks to a month." She took a sip of her cup.
Y/n: "At least we can have that off of our backs." I took another sip of my cup. "How's Esdeath doing?"
Najenda: "As the General, she still giving orders to the soldiers of the Capital to help the civilians. So, she's fine on her side."
Y/n: "That's good."
Najenda: "But there's something else in you mind, is there?" I looked at her and chuckled.
Y/n: "You're always looking through me. Yes, there's something else in my mind."
Najenda: "Is it about your parents finally meeting?" I tilted my head a few times.
Y/n: "Well, that's part of it."
Najenda: "The Warchief is still in your mind." I nodded. "We'll get him, Y/n. We just have to wait."
Y/n: "I can't just sit down, and wait for him, Najenda. He's reckless, restless, and he won't stop until he finally gets what he wants."
Najenda: "And what does he wants, exactly?" I shook my head and shrugged.
Y/n: "I don't know. I really have no clue." I sighed, and hung my head.
Then, she held my chin, made me look at her, and she leaned forward to peck my lips. Which I didn't get flustered.
Najenda: "Don't forget that we are here for you, Y/n. Don't let your troubles trouble you. Ok?" I nodded.
Y/n: "Yes, Minister." She chuckled.
Najenda: "Another name, please."
Y/n: "Yes, ma'am." She backed away a litte.
Najenda: "Really?"
Y/n: "Sorry, boss." I smirked, and she sighed.
Najenda: "How have I fallen for you?" She shook her head with her hand on her face. I took hold of her chin and made her turn to me.
Y/n: "Because I'm irresistable." I gave her a small passionate kiss.
Najenda: "Yes, you are.~" We started to have a make out session, when suddenly someone pulled me away, and I felt a killing intent aura from behind.
Esdeath: "Well, well, well. I leave for just five minutes, and I find you smooching Najenda without remorse." I felt chills running down my spine.
Y/n: "I-If it's a k-kiss that you want, you just have t-to ask."
Esdeath: "Oh no, my dear. I don't ask,..." She made me leaned my head back, while she had her head over me. "...I just do it." She leaned down and kissed me with more passion.
N/n: "How much references will you do Drako? Seriously, the Spider-Man kiss, but without the hanging webs and stuff. (A/n: Just enjoy the story and stop being a cockblock.)
???: "Y/N L/N!!!" We both stopped kissing, and looked at the source of the voice that came from. It was my mother, dressed in a f/c dress, and her hair is all tied up to a bun on the back. "I came here to see my beloved son and how he was doing, and here I am, seeing him having a make out session with both of the Generals!"
Esdeath: "Did you had to ruin the moment, Kassandra? I mean, seriously."
Y/n: "I'm glad that you're safe, mother." I started to walke towards her, but then, she grabbed both of my cheeks and pulled them to the sides.
Mother: "Don't you 'glad that you're safe' me, mister! I've been worried sick of what might have happened to you, and here you are not coming to get me yourself!"
Y/n: "I-I w-was a wittle b-busy."
Mother: "Busy!? What's more important that your mother!?"
Esdeath: "For instance, beign an Emperor isn't easy." Mother let go of my cheeks, and I started to rub them to ease the pain.
Mother: "You're-You're what?" I looked at her and she was shocked.
Y/n: "I'm the new Emperor, mother. And I was helping the wounded. That's why I sent Wave and Tatsumi to get you."
Run: "Y/n!" I looked over mother's shoulder, and saw him, helping father, walking towards us. Father had his hair tied back, clean, well dressed, the cloth over his eyes was a red piece, and his beard looked neat.
Y/n: "Can you stay here for a moment? And don't turn around."
Mother: "Listen, young man, you don't tell me what to do! Unless if it's a su-"
Father: "Kassandra?" Mother froze and her eyes widened.
I raised an eyebrow with a smirk. I turned around mother, and she gasped the moment her eyes landed on him. I started to move her slowly towards him, and Run did the same with father.
We both stopped them. Their reactions were priceless. Tears were streaming down mother's cheeks, and father was at loss of breath. I nodded at Run, as thank you. He nodded as well, and left.
Y/n: "Mother. Father." I took hold of their hands, and united it them. "I believe that you both deserve this moment." I let go of them, and they instantly hugged. They sobbed and caressed each other like there was no tomorrow.
Run: "Guess that this is a moment that you've been waiting for." I wiped away a tear.
Y/n: "You have no idea." I kept my gaze on the sight. It was beautiful.
Run: "Y/n, I believe that you should turn around." I looked at him confused, and saw him looking behind us.
When my gaze turned to where he was looking, I saw Seryu looking at me with a huge smile. I turned around and started running towards her, and she did the same. When we got closer, she jumped towards me. When she collided with me, we hugged each other while I spun around.
When we finished spinning around and hugging, we separated, and gave each other a kiss.
Reuniting my family, getting one of the girls back, and having my friends around me was the best thing that could happened to me. Nothing could ruin this moment.
But I knew, that Zeth was still out there, and I felt that I was going to see him. But it was sooner than I thought.
