Fight for love

After Kuro and Tomoka parted ways, Kuro went to see the Queen. She rushed towards him and hugged him tightly saying "I'm sorry for putting you through all of this I never intended too..." Before she could finish, Kuro stopped her saying "no, I'm sorry for what I said, I reacted out of anger and forgot what situation you were in to ask such a favour from me". That's how they both reconciled and everything went back to normal, and this time, he has Tomoka with him (even though she has to see him secretly so that she won't be labeled a betrayer).

Since life seems to be fine on Kuro side, let's see how Tomoka is doing.

Tomoka is studying at the University of heroes, those who will serve the kingdom and either fight or rob other kingdoms. Becoming a hero for the kingdom of Thesaurussia will bring great wealth to herself and her five sisters, bringing them out of poverty.

Tomoka was born in the wealthy family of Itsoku, being the first born and the only daughter of Yutaro Itsoku her father. But at the age of five, things took a dark turn when her father died of a severe illness. Her mother's heart was shattered and she stayed depressed for the rest of her life, drinking and living an irresponsible life, having 5 daughters all from different men. With all of their money spent on her careless life, Tomoka had to work several jobs to provide for her little sisters. As hard as her life was, she loved her sisters and her sisters were always there for her, plus, they had some good memories like playing hide and seek to escape their mother's predatory boyfriends, selling their mother's bottles of alcohol to buy candy, comparing the scars they got from their mother's beating and the money they succeeded in stealing from their mother's boyfriend to get beautiful clothes and shoes...the list goes on. No matter what they went through, they did it together, and Tomoka will do her best to give her sisters the peaceful and comfortable life they deserve and kick her mother out of their lives.

When she turned eight, she worked as a maid in Kuro's house. They quickly got along and soon became good friends. She was doing her work  perfectly, and Kuro was giving her some of his pocket money to help her and her sisters. One day, when she was twelve years old, Kuro's fourth stepmother fired her out of jealousy because she realised that her husband had eyes on her.

At the end of the day, she has to be the best hero Thesaurussia ever had, and for that, she has to study really hard and master her powers quickly.

At the University of heroes, she has three friends, Sana yuki who has the gift of healing, Tohru Nanami who has the power of toys and the son of the king of Thesaurussia, Prince Satoshi Shigure with the gift of magical guns. Together they studied hard, stood by each other, and shared secrets. The only secret Tomoka didn't tell them is where Kuro is, only Sana knows about it.

Back there, in kingdom of Eglatine, Kuro started getting used to dealing with the people and now, he's learning how to fight with the eagle armour. There is one issue tho, Kuro has fallen in love with someone but he wouldn't tell anyone not even Tomoka, the girl who knows all his secrets.

2 months later, Tomoka was worried about something. So she goes over to Kuro's place to discuss about it.

Kuro: what's wrong Tomoka? it seems that something is disturbing you.

Tomoka: I don't know, maybe I'm not desirable.

Kuro: what do you mean? you're the prettiest girl in the kingdom of Thesaurussia.

Tomoka: I know I said that I'll focus on studies and power instead of love but, no guy is interested in me, and those who show interest in me soon avoid me. Is there something wrong with me?

Kuro: not at all, but like you said, focus on your studies instead, there's no point feeling down for a University relationship that mostly never lasts.

Tomoka: you're right, beside, there's someone that I love but I'm too scared of rejection.

Kuro: that's better than falling in love with someone you can never have.

Tomoka: who is it? who is it? who is it?

Kuro: I'll tell who is she if you tell me who is the guy you like.

Tomoka: ehhh, I have a better idea, when I graduate, we'll confess our feelings to the person we love, hehehe.

Kuro: sure, good idea Tomoka.

Who is the love of their lives? That a question that for now has no answers.

One day at the university of heroes, everyone was horrified by a corpse in the class, but his position scared people even more. He was on his knees, holding roses in his hand and a held a letter in his mouth it was written "I love you Tomoka Itsoku" most people found it terrifying, some mentally deranged girls found it romantic and Tomoka was horrified. "This was the boy that asked me out yesterday" she thought as she ran away from school and went to the kingdom of Eglatine.

From that day on, she was scared of going back to school. She spent a lot of time with Kuro in the kingdom of Eglatine and for people not to be suspicious, Kuro said that she has the penguin power so that people wouldn't know she's a Thesaurussia.

In the castle of Thesaurussia, the prince was discussing with his parents.

Satoshi: I will ask Tomoka out on Saturday but, I have a problem.

Queen Shigure: that's sweet, but what's the issue?

Satoshi: there is someone she's seeing privately, that could be her boyfriend or lover? I need him gone.

King Shigure: well son, Tomoka is the friend who was always on Kuro's side, despite his disgraceful act sooo, maybe she's still seeing him at the kingdom of Eglatine.

Satoshi: I'll get rid of him after all, if I kill him, the money of the bounty will remain in the family.

King Shigure: that's my son!.

After days of looking for the kingdom of Eglatine, Satoshi didn't find the kingdom of Eglatine but, he found Kuro and his royal guards walking on the road to the kingdom of Armonon, the third weakest kingdom in the Agate world.

Satoshi surrounded them with floating guns, forcing them to stay in one place. Kuro asked him "what do you want Satoshi?: Satoshi answered him saying "the audacity you have calling me by my name, I guess royalty has gotten to your head. Surrender and follow me or watch your guards die for you". The royal guards were willing to die but Kuro refused and whispered to them "I'll fly in the air while the guns face up you destroy them". With that plan, Kuro said in his heart "TEAR THE SKIN, KING OF THE CELESTIAL BEAST EMPOWER ME" then he transformed into his eagle armour and flew up as fast as he could, giving his royal guards enough distraction to destroy the guns.

A fight began. Kuro was flying at high speed in the sky, causing Satoshi to miss all his shots. The guards of Kuro were fighting the guards of Satoshi, despite having weak powers, their experiences, wisdom and teamwork made it difficult for Satoshi guards to keep up with them, after all, since the kingdom of Thesaurussia were used to winning fights easily, no one took their fighting job seriously.

Kuro launched at Satoshi with full speed, catching him of guard and tore the skin of his shoulder with the magical beck of the eagle. Before Satoshi could recover, Kuro raised the magical Canon that Satoshi brought up and wanted to crush him with it. But the he thought to himself "killing the prince of Thesaurussia will definitely mean war and it's too dangerous for my people". So Kuro warned him saying.

Kuro: I'll let you of this time but you would regret it if you show your face here next time.

Satoshi: I underestimated you Kuro but I'll come back prepared next time, if you don't stay away from Tomoka.

Kuro: WHAT?!?! So this is what all this was about??? We are good friends not in a relationship.

Satoshi: ooooooh, well then, see you another time.

Satoshi left alone, all of his guards died in the fight. Kuro and his royal guards went home and decided to spy on the kingdom of Armonon another time.

On Saturday, Satoshi asked Tomoka out infront of everyone and she accepted him ( she only likes him as a friend but dating him will be a good opportunity for her sisters and her before she becomes the greatest hero) she then told Kuro the good news.

Tomoka: we're together now, isn't that great?!

Kuro: I don't know, you never showed interest in him but somehow you love him now?

Tomoka: well, love finds a way Kuro.

Kuro didn't tell her that he attacked him, after all, she's the only one in Thesaurussia that doesn't hate him. But he was worried that Satoshi will be a great danger to her.
