Chapter 4: Meeting the Shadow Garden
We find Y/n entering what seems like a small room filled with books all around him as he step into the room as the only light that is in the room was a fire place as he approaches one of the book shelfs and looking through all the books until he pick out a book to read and once he got the book, he goes over to a small chair and then sat down and then open his book.
He starts read through the pages of the book as the only sound he can hear is the crackles of his fireplace near him as he flip through the pages, being quiet as he read.
In his thoughts reminds him of his traumatised past and how he was left abandon by his selfish and cruel parents only to be taking by a corrupt rich person which he made him as a slave and abuse him many times for fun.
Even in parties, no one acknowledge of his wound or how dirty he is. They treat him like nothing but a "thing" to them. He rarely get some food and even he does, he'll get soke left over food that give him food poison however he must work even if he isn't feeling well.
Anger, sadness and rage boiled within him and seeing of this injustice that he has been going through and can't forget the moment he finally get his revenge and heada odd to take on any corruption or evil no matter how far or powerful they maybe, he will find them and will not stop until all those are dead, or traumatised just like him.
???: Day dreaming my lord?
He open his eyes and sees Zeta standing in front of him and then she sat on Y/n's lab and start to nuzzle him and purring like a cat while Y/n close his book and replies to her.
Y/n: Yeah. Just thinking about something, that's all.
Zeta: (smirk) Okay then. (Looks around the room) Have you every ready any of those books?
Y/n: Indeed. I've placed each books in shelfs that either hold useful information or books to spend some time. Ice read around 78% of books.
Zeta: (little surprised) That's impressive. But who I'm I kidding your so smart which I like hot and smart guys.
Y/n: (smirk) You love everything about me. You and Delta love me so much, you both argue each other to want to sleep with me.
Zeta: (smirk) Well which do you love the most?
Y/n: (smirk) Both of you of course. That's why I allow you both to sleep with me so you both won't wake everyone here.
Zeta: (smirk) Well we did more then just "sleep."
Then the two kissed as Y/n grabs her butt as the two made out for sometime when the door open and a familiar voice called out.
???: Looks like you two are getting too close.
They stop and turn to see Alexia standing there and glaring at the two while Zeta smirked once again and ask Y/n.
Zeta: (smirk) Is she our new member?
Y/n: Not exactly. I figure I'll introduce Alexia to my team and what we do here.
Alexia: Indeed so let's get started and show me around?
Y/n: Right. Sorry.
(Short while later)
We see both Alexia and Y/n walking down the hallway as Y/n explained to Alexia on how they managed to turn an abandon Castle into their living home/Assassin HQ which Alexia ask.
Alexia: Huh and no one doesn't know about this place?
Y/n: No. This place is far away from civilization and the only once he knows about this place or has the knowledge of this place is us.
Alexia: Huh well the location here is pretty smart. How can you find food?
Y/n: One of us take turns go out and get some supplies but we have a rule which is never let Delta go shopping.
Soon they reach the dinning Hall as Y/n opens the twin doors while Alexia ask in confusion.
Alexia: Why can't this Delta can't go-
Then she turn and sees piles of food on the table and sees Delta at the other end of the table, eating all the food on the table for her lunch.
Alexia: Oh......never mind.
Y/n: Delta may like food or act like a dog but a it comes to combat, you really wish you won't get into her bad side.
Delta: (noticed them) Hi there Shadow Emperor and mysterious weird lady, wanna bite to eat?
Alexia: (angry mutter) The fuck did this dog bitch call me?
Y/n: No thanks we're find. I cam here to introduce Alexia, my girlfriend from school.
Delta: Ooooohhhhh she looks scary. Is she our new member?
Alexia: (angry) Why do you think I'm scary?!
Y/n: She's not our new member I figure I'll introduce her to all of you.
Delta: Oh that's sweet. (Holds out a bite chicken) Wanna join me?
Alexia: Yeah I think I'll pass.
Soon they leave the room onlynto come across Epsilon as she walks up to the two.
Epsilon: So she's thie girlfriend you told us about?
Y/n: That's right. This is Alexia, she's from a royal family.
Epsilon: That's not bad. (Smirk) But just because your royalty that doesn't mean your better then me. I'm a better girlfriend to Y/n then you.
Alexia: (angry) Oh really because you sounded like a child and even look like one.
Epsilon: (angry) Better watch yourself because I'm not afraid to beat you up!
The two shot lighting bolts at each other while sharing glares at each other which Y/n sighs and makes q note to never leave both Alexia and Epsilon alone together if he is not around.
(Later)
We see Eta sleeping while laying on Alpha's lap in her room. Alpha let's out a soft giggle as she stroke Eta's head when Y/n opens the door and he ans Alexia walk inside.
Y/n: Alpha I would like you to meet Alexia. Alexia, this is Alpha and the one is sleeping is Eta.
Alpha: (smile) A pleasure to meet Y/n's school girlfriend. Please forgive Eta, she loves to sleep.
Alexia: That's alright. I mean at least your nicer then the other girls I've met.
Alpha: (giggle) I know what you mean. Beta and Gamma are also nice people as well.
Alexia: That's good to hear. So your like Y/n's second in command or something?
Alpha: (smile) That's correct. I make sure everything is in order while Y/n is away on his own and guve our order to the team until Y/n returns.
Alexia: Huh you even have a command structure in place in the team.
Y/n: Indeed. We maybe assassins of the dark but we're also a family here as well. We treat each other with respect.
Alexia: Yeah while all girls seems to enjoy you being here with you if you know what I mean.
Y/n: Anyways I'll you here with Alpha while I go and sort out my gear.
He then leave the room and once he left Alexia sighs and sat down on a chair while Alpha noticed her announcing and tells Alexia.
Alpha: I know you love Y/n just like all of us.
Alexia: Yeah. Say can I ask you something?
Alpha: Of course.
Alexia: Why did he started this group and more importantly why he has a lot of girls that immediately falls for him, including you two.
Alpha: (giggle) Well you see we too suffer the injustice that the world put on us. Slavery, cruelty, corruption and unnecessary deaths made us who we are. The reason why he chosen us is because we suffered the same thing just like him. He didn't take us in because of our skills or magic, it's because he wants to make us happy and be part of a family so we fall for him because of his kindness.
Alexia: Really? I mean I heard about the Shadow Emperor being scary and strikes fear.
Alpha: That's his Shadow Emperor identity. Behind the helmet is a broken person who was left abandon, abused, mistreated and so much more by those who enslaved him. He may seme nice but he is trying his best to remove the traumas of his past so he cam be happy but knows his past made him become what he is.
Alexia: Huh I never thought about that.
Alpha: You may love a loving life in royalty but to Y/n, he lived as a slave and never have anyone around him to be his family until now.
Alexia looks down and feeling bad for Y/n for what he has to go through throughout his life. Soon we find Y/n on the roof of the base and looking at the veiw when Alexia walks up next to him.
Y/n: Nice veiw isn't it.
Alexia: Yeah, it is. Hey I.....understand.
Y/n: Understand what?
Alexia: Everything. Why you created the Shadow Garden, take those girls and why kept all of this as a secret.
Y/n: Yeah.
Alexia:........Hey here's the deal? (Turns to Y/n) I'll be fine you going on dates with some girls but promise me you go on dates with me or have me apart with some, got it?
Y/n: So basically you be apart of my harem?
Alexia: A what?
Y/n: Sorry. A group of guys told me that I would have a "harem" since the girls have there eyes on me and Alpha and the others like the idea.
Alexia: Huh. Weird but meh, I'll roll with it.
Y/n: And as for the deal, sure. That will be alright with me.
Alexia: And since you save me I'll help you and your organisation by feeding you all intel of any signs of corruption or anything that your team can handle.
Y/n: Sounds good to me.
Alexia: (smile) Besides, we could be a good team you and I.
Y/n: Huh, a princess and an assassin. Hhmm, guess that seems like a good mix to me.
Alexia: (smile) Yeah. Well, I'll see you in school tomorrow.
Y/n: You want me to take you home.
Alexia: Actually yeah don't want it happen like last time.
Y/n: (picks up Alexia) Okay then. This will take a sec.
Immediately the two disappeared in a black smoke and soon appeared in front of Alexia's gate as Y/n put her down as she was surprised that she is here and turn to Y/n.
Y/n: (smile) Well, I'll see you tomorrow then. Goodnight Alexia.
Then he lend in and kiss Alexia on the cheek amd turns and leave as he disappeared from the darkness. Alexia smirked to herself as the gate behind her open and she walk in while night came once Y/n arrived back as he is in his room as he look out of the window and then turn to his helmet and then picks it up and looks at it.
He stared at the helmet for a moment and then looks back up and in the reflection was his younger self with wounds around him as he stared at his own reflection. He squeeze his helmet a bit, place it back onto the table and then climb into bed and get some sleep for tomorrow morning school.
