On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 110: Sisters before misters

"Milan," Aqua got all excited and ran towards her sister to the entrance, hugging her. The bright smile on her face showing her heart out. Aqua was relieved to see her sister amidst all the confusions she had inside her head. "Am so glad to see you, I was literally going through a hard time," she said.

"What? Shifu is giving you a hard time?" Milan asked. 

"Well you can say that, and that Demon too," Aqua scowled. 

"Since when did you start calling brother in law a Demon?"

"Brother In law my foot, don't mention that again, or i will pluck your tongue out Milan," she threatened her sister in a funny way. "How come you're here visit me, am glad you did," Milan said nothing but smiled. She just sighed instead. "What happened?" She raised her brow looking at Milan. 

"Let's go for a walk shall we?" Milan asked.

"Sure, yeah, yes," Aqua said. Milan took her hands led her to the woods close to the barriers by Aqua was not aware of that part of the forest. 

"Why don't we ever fight like other sisters Aqua?" Milan asked. 

"Nonsense, why should we fight? Don't you know team work is more important for siblings than fighting to survive in this world?" Aqua educated Milan. "Why would ask that?" But Milan chose not to answer it and continued.

Milan enjoyed the walk in her own way, calm, serene and smiling, touching the leave and plants that bloomed immediately and looked fresh and healed the branches of the broken trees. Aqua was satisfied but feeling weird about the whole situation. Shifu was not in the mountain, meeting with somebody and Huo busy with works assigned by Shifu. 

"I thought you are having fun here," Milan said.

"I would not dent that fact, sometimes it is fun, but mostly it's frustrating," she said looking at the trees ahead of them. 

"Why can't you forgive him?" Milan asked her doubt.

"He gave upon himself, he gave up, he quit everything, I can't easily forgive for that, he let us down, he made Pa angry, he made feel terrible, even though he was going through a hard time," 

"What is going on dear?" Aqua asked again.

Milan inhaled. "I confessed, " 

'Mwooooo?" Aqua asked her shocked. She swallowed hard. Her heart grew tensed. She knows Aiden too well that she was sure that her sister must be broken inside. She wondered if Aiden would have said back something and hoped for him to keep his mouth shut. 

"Yes I said what is there in my heart, how much i love him and how am imprinted on him, then he shared what's in his heart," Milan went on and Aqua's eyes glistened with tears instead. 'Dumbhead Aiden, why the hell did you have to tell her,' Aqua cursed Aiden inside her head, getting upset. 

"Milan, am sorry, I don't know what to say," Aqua said instead. 

"So I was going crazy and ran away, I just wanted to come see you, am better now, I feel way better," 

"I wish you would fight me right now," Aqua said.

"Didn't you just teach that team work is more important? No am not fighting, I choose, working, living and loving forever with you," Milan said and hugged her sister. "Why are you crying? c'mon sis,"

"I promise Milan I promise I will beat up Aiden next time I see him,"

"Hmm yes do that," Milan said patting Aqua. "Do that for me, show him that i have people to back me up," She wiped away her sister's tears. But something struck Aqua deeply. 

'What did she mean by getting imprinted on Aiden? Doesn't it mean she will not love anybody else?' Aqua looked at Milan.

She didn't know what Milan was thinking inside her head. She took Aqua first to a river side.

"Our Realm is so beautiful don't you think?" Aqua said.

"Very," Milan replied, plucking flowers from the plants around then and made two bouquets and walked towards two tombs.

"What are you doing?" Aqua asked confused.

"They must be lonely, buried far away from the main lands, don't you think sister?" Milan spoke, kneeling down next to her biological parents. She touched the ground. "They don't even had decent tombstones," she was smiling with an ache in her chest. She tried her best to recall what her parents looked like, but she couldn't exactly remember their faces. Aqua felt something off in her sister's behaviour. 

"Who are the" she asked Milan.

"The Fox King and his wife," she replied. Aqua was shocked to know that.

"The fox king did you say?" She asked to confirm. 

"Hmm yes," Milan said. She got up and put a barrier around it. She built two tombs instantly. Aqua did not feel right about it. 

"Can you pay respects for them?" Milan asked her elder sister. Aqua nodded and walked towards the tombs. 

"This is my sister, Aquamarine, bless her," Milan talked to the deceased. Aqua kept looking at her sister.  She sounded very emotional.  For a moment, Aqua doubted it was really Milan who is standing next to her. 

"Milan forgive me," Aqua said and attacked Milan who stood unconscious almost immediately once Aqua her internally with her Crystals. Aqua stood holding her powers towards Milan's head, entering inside her and reading her mind. Aqua shut her eyes quickly. She started seeing things. 

A baby born on one new moon day, and named Saga. Her father the Fox King in the Water Realm, the rarest gumhiho. And mother a level one fairy who lived in the nearby village. Aqua then saw how the mother fought against the evil monsters and beasts from the woods. She saw how the fox King was killed. How her mother cried and buried her only love by the river banks, Aqua witnessed the beasts attacking the villagers, burning things down, she the mother running away and hiding the baby, then she saw her father and his troops. She saw the blood thirsty Centaurs who brutally murdered the fox king. Aqua's head was about to explode in pain, getting inside her sister, an unusual power fighting to kick the foreign body out of its system. Aqua then saw the trail, the encounter and her father taking the baby in his hands. The baby with the blue eyes. She witnessed the mother passing away. Then she saw her father declaring to the universe about her mother's pregnancy.  She saw herself playing with child, and growing up together as sister. 

'Milan, here, have this candy it is even tastier,' The words and conversations echoed in her head.

'Milan, come here...'

'Milan wear this, try this on....,' 

She saw a lonely girl sitting inside the chambers, practicing alone, and standing in front of the mirror looking at herself, the nine tails behind her, with blue blazes like the aura all around her, the sparkling blue eyes. 

The powers kicked her out and Aqua fell on her back. She spit blood. She removed the powers and Milan also fell down suddenly.  Both were panting hard. Aqua was shocked and looked at her sister unbelievably. "Milan," she called. She had restored Milan's memories even she couldn't recall. Someone helped her stand up on her feet. Aqua looked up and saw Huo next to her. "Thank you," she said and walked towards Milan who was lying down. 

"You, " Aqua said. "You are..you.." Aqua out her hands on either side of her sister's face. "Why? What happened? What is going on tell me?" Aqua asked her. 

"I just wanted to show myself to you today," Milan said and stopped there. 

"There must be a reason why?" Aqua asked again.

"Nothing sister, nothing, what could there be?" Milan said trying to be strong. 

"Am sorry, am sorry I failed to notice, failed to know about you," Aqua said, her hands trembling. She could sense the kind of danger there would be if the heavenly Emperor knows about it. Bringing up a spiritual beast in the palace without informing or reporting about it, she couldn't understand why her father chose to hide it even though it was the best thing King Aenon has done in his life. 

"I am fine and it was never anyone's fault, letting people know about existence is the danger for all, am glad and I still choose to cover up myself, don't feel bad about this," Milan assured her. She was trying to tell her sister that the family is in trouble. Huo'er's heart was not calm worried if Aqua would find out, and worried about the the family that is going to be torn apart. Aqua hugged her sister. 

"The Queen of the Water Woods, you must have helped father from the background alot," Aqua said. "Without letting him even doubt it," 

"A really lot, actually half my life," Milan agreed. 

"You have to train well in your own way, please let me help you," Aqua offered her help.

"Am fine sister, am in pretty good control, I don't want the beast side of me come out ever," she said. 

"Stay with me here, I will talk to shifu about it,' Aqua said and took her hands to return back to hut.

"Let her return, don't let your parents worry, let her go back home," Huo said patiently. 

"I.." Aqua couldn't find words to say out loud and shut her mouth. What Huo said did make sense. Obviously shifu wouldn't let them stay together. So Aqua decided to send Milan back home before the sun set. 

"Reach out for me when you want to like today, I will come for you," Aqua promised before Milan took out. Luckily Milan kicked Aqua out of her body before she found out about the current situation and Milan was glad about that. Milan nodded at Huo, smiled at Aqua and apparated back to Water Palace. Aiden was waiting for her return. 

"Where were you?" He asked running towards her.
