POV Akeno
My name is Akeno Himejima, I'm half human and fallen angel, well that was before...
I'll tell you a bit about my story.
At the tender age of seven I experienced a problem when my mother was almost killed in front of me, I wanted to defend her but I was just a weak girl and could not do much.
She told me to escape, but I resolutely said no ...
If I was going to die, I would do it with her, at that moment I started to feel a bit of contempt for my father.
It was unbelievable that he was not here to defend us, he was never there when it was necessary.
I saw the man in front want to attack us, I put myself in front of my mother, I did not want to see her die.
But suddenly a new voice was heard in the house and soon I could see the back of a child holding a black sword with blood.
After I spoke with the man in front of me, he turned to my mother and approached.
Akeno: "Stay away from Mom!" I intervened in the middle, but he lifted a finger and everything went dark.
---
When I woke up I was in a different place, I could feel full of strength and I was surprised by some strange news.
That child that saved us ... Now was my father.
-Can you imagine being told such a thing? Can a child your age be your father?- I thought inside and took it as a joke.
But it turned out to be true, that child had taken me as his daughter, said, my mother.
I was not going to accept that and besides he knocked me out as soon as he saw me, it was obvious that I hated him but I could not do anything.
Later I discovered that his name was Yukio.
Then my mother ordered me to accompany him to a different dimension, I was not surprised since I had found out that we were in a dimension created by Yukio.
I did not want to but in the end, I had to go.
Shuri: "I know you don´t agree ... But look at it from a different point of view, he wants to help you."
Akeno: "Help me? ... How could he be my father!?" I refused, it was something I did not understand.
My mother sighed and then hugged me.
Shuri: "I know it's strange, but he can protect you, even if he wants me to die, I don´t care as long as you're happy ..."
Her words made me feel much more anger, if that Yukio boy wanted to use my mother, I would kill him without hesitation.
In the end, I had to accept going to that dimension reluctantly, and soon we left.
---
The day we entered I was surprised by what I saw, a field full of blood and bodies, plus many beings who I had never heard of.
But the most surprising thing was when Yukio told us that we were trapped for ten or eleven years here.
My anger intensified and I hated him even more, I did not want to see him, I wanted to hit him but Kuroka stopped me.
I locked myself in my room. I wanted to see my mother, I did not want to keep fighting in this place and so the years went by.
I always looked at Yukio with a hateful look, but he just smiled at me and tried to be nice to me, which I hated.
It wasn´t until the third year that he began to be locked in his room, Kuroka and Koneko began to worry about him.
But I ... I did not care, at least I thought so but sometimes I visited him.
During that time I watched him do inexplicable things like creating portals.
I was surprised at his ability, it was something quite out of this world, but much later I found out that was what he did for me.
My hatred dwindled, he did all this, he stopped eating and just looked for a portal so I could be with my mother.
I ... I did not know what to do and tried to talk to him.
Akeno: "Yukio...-"
Yukio: "I know what you will say and it is not necessary, it is my duty to do this after bringing you here, I regret not being able to do more and just see them as simple projections." He sincerely apologized.
I just nodded but started to see him differently, he turned out not to be so bad.
So we spent our years like this, I could tell that Yukio was not bad, he always made me laugh or he took care of me on the battlefield, he did not like the male fairies bothering me, he was very overprotective.
But during the ninth year we all realized something, Yukio was changing, sometimes he cried silently in his room or he stared at the sky as if he had lost something.
We worried and always tried to discover the reason, according to Fanny, the fairy, apparently, Yukio was having problems due to seeing all his fairy friends die.
He was blaming himself, we all started trying to help him, he started going out to have fun starting in the ninth year where I started to feel something for him.
But he was supposed to be my 'father' I could not do anything, although it bothered me a little that he had Kuroka-chan as his wife, besides also Yasaka-san ...
Even so, we had fun among everyone, but there will always be problems and that was in the tenth year where everything changed.
The war was worse and bloody, rather it was a massacre, Yukio fought with everything to protect us.
He had changed a lot, both in appearance and mentality.
He became cruel to his enemies and his dragon changes were more remarkable.
There was a battle where we gave our everything we could to fight, we three girls fought in a group, although we were stronger than the enemies, they were too many and soon we had many wounds.
We could see Yukio trying to get to our position, but he was surrounded by many Fairy Devils and it was impossible.
I knew that maybe we could die in this place, I wanted to tell him everything I felt, but my eyes caught a scene that froze my blood.
And I could not help screaming.
Akeno: "KUROKAAA!!!" My friend, the girl I most respected was stabbed in her heart and she just had a smile while she looked towards the direction of Yukio.
My eyes filled with tears but I heard a scream crashing from above.
Yukio: "KUROOOO!!!" It was very strong and I even felt a headache when I wanted to look at him.
He had become a gigantic dragon with black scales and purple eyes, radiating a heavy aura in addition to darkness.
The whole field became a sea of flames and it was a massacre, bodies and everything flying everywhere.
When everything calmed down he returned to his human form, still having purple eyes but also two horns coming out of his forehead.
He was kneeling beside Kuroka while crying, I did the same as she was my friend ..
Akeno: "Kuroka ..." My hands touched her beautiful face, I wanted this to be a dream.
Yukio was left with a frozen look and soon began to spit blood, I was scared but soon I saw him take out something like a chess piece made of glass.
What I saw surprised me even more, when he stuck it in Kuroka's chest, it was absorbed, soon Yukio fell on the floor.
I thought he had committed suicide or something, I ran towards him but I noticed that he was still breathing and heard a voice.
???: "Uh? ... I see that this child did something foolish ... You should treat him quickly or he will die."
That voice sounded in my head and scared me, but I had to treat Yukio, I did the best I could and soon Kuroka woke up confused.
I looked at her and my eyes widened, she was dead but now she lived again, the strange things were ...
She had three tails and her ears, what was really different were four pairs of white wings of fire on her back.
---
After a year, Yukio woke up and we became his Peerage, I also confessed and he accepted me ...
This is how I became a sacred dragon.

POV - Shuri
Yukio ...What I will tell about him is not much, when I met him, it was when I was saved with my daughter from death, I always thanked him but he said it was his duty.
It was very funny and to my surprise, Yasaka, the leader of Kyoto´s Yokai Faction, one of the most desired woman was in love with him being only a child, I thought something very strange.
But after a while, I noticed that he had many good points ...
--
Soon he disappeared with my daughter for three years, I was very sad and angry because I thought I lost my daughter.
Yasaka had to comfort me all this while but it was only until we felt familiar energy and when we left the house we saw four people standing outside.
My tears ran and I jumped on my daughter but she turned out to be some kind of projection.
Then Yukio proceeded to tell us everything, I was angry and I scolded him but inside I was happy that they were well.
We always communicated like this but ...
I started talking to Yukio secretly, I did not know why, but I was very happy to talk to him alone.
Shuri: "Jejej Really?"
Yukio: "Do you think I'm lying? I'm a man of my word, you know?"
Shuri: "Oh ... Man? But you're a kid, how weird."
I could see his defeated face and him muttering something, it was nice to see him like that, we always talked about all sorts of things.
But I could also see a change in my daughter when I spoke with her, before, she spoke about Yukio with hate, but now she was very affectionate.
She even told me good things about him and I knew that was it.
She fell in love ... And I felt somewhat jealous but it was my daughter's happiness I was not going to take it from her.
Or so I thought until one day it happened.
Yukio: "Shuri ..."
My body went numb when he called my name, and I looked at him.
Shuri: "Y-yes?"
Yukio: "I love you."
My mind went flying, I could be an older woman, but what woman would not want a loving and direct man.
When we talked secretly he was always affectionate and attentive, despite being a child I knew it was not like that.
He was hiding something, and I discovered that after some of time.
When he saved me years ago, I saw an image of a young man with long jet-black hair.
And that image is now the same Yukio ... I knew he was hiding something and I hoped that someday he would tell me.
Shuri: "I ..." I hesitated a moment but he did not stop.
Yukio: "Do you think that since you are older you can not satisfy me?"
I nodded insistently, it was true.
Yukio: "First, I do not care about that, because I really fell in love with you, besides, you never noticed it, you have not aged a bit since we met, you even look two years younger."
Shuri: "Oh?" I did not understand but I began to look at myself in a mirror, it was true that I had never noticed it because I did not pay so much attention, I had not aged at all, but I was even younger.
Yukio: "The dimension is separated from the normal time system, that is to say, that these years that you have lived have gone back days ... Very likely if you spend twenty years inside you can have twenty again, maybe?" I could see him rubbing his chin like a wise man.
But my brain was processing all the information and soon.
Shuri: "You ... Are you sure about this? ... I was a married woman and I'm not quite young." I bit my lips. "At some point, you'll get bored with me."
I saw him look at me calmly and then sigh.
Yukio: "You don´t understand ... Shuri, I love you, you were married, that does not matter to me, it's better because I want to marry you ... I would never get tired of you, you are an adorable and very understanding woman, your attitude is beautiful and without even talking about your way of taking care of me ... I don´t care if you're not young, the important thing is that you're with me ... "
His words touched my heart and I could not help but cry with a little happiness.
Shuri: "Yukio-kun ... I ... I love you." I said with a small smile at the end and soon I felt a little burning in my right shoulder.
When I looked at it I could see a red mark, it looked like a magic circle with a little dragon in the middle.
I saw Yukio who gave me a loving look and heard his words.
Yukio: "Just wait a little longer ... I promise to be with you soon."
I nodded and smiled shyly: "My husband ..."
--- Yasaka
When I met Yukio it was a fortunate encounter since he saved my life and my daughter, I wanted to give him payment, so I invited him to my base, but when he arrived, I offered him something that he rejected.
He simply asked me to talk and I did, it was very nice and we had a very comfortable feeling.
Sometimes I looked at a silhouette that suddenly appeared, I did not know what it was at the beginning until I decided to look in the old books.
It turned out that this vision was not because I confused something, it's that Yukio had a secret, he ... possibly was not a child, but I wanted him to be the one to tell me.
So I decided to turn a blind eye to it, we spent our time talking and I liked him a lot, he was a great friend, but soon I needed his help but he rejected me.
I was disappointed, but immediately he offered me something much better than what I asked for.
He took me to a dimension, something I could call home and without hesitation I moved my faction there, thanks to that now the other factions do not know where we are located giving me much more security.
---
Yukio had gone to a different dimension, I stayed in the same place waiting for him, but he never came back, I felt tears and my heart hurt when I fell in tears.
I thought I had lost him, my only friend ... And the man who I came to love.
Yasaka: "You ... you have to come back ... You promised me!"
I spent my days in poor condition, but Shuri had it worse because she had lost her daughter, I had to comfort her and swallow my pain.
But always when I was alone I thought about him, that child that could make my heart move, but one day, suddenly I felt his energy.
I left almost immedaitely and there I saw him, I wanted to hug him but he was just a projection.
I looked at him and he smiled, and he pretended to be hugging me.
Yukio: "I'm sorry ..." He apologized and looked at me sadly.
I cried, I wanted to embrace him in truth.
Yasaka: "No ... you do not have to apologize, I want you to come back". I said resolutely.
But he shook with his head and explained that he did not have the strength to return.
I felt very bad but he smiled.
Yukio: "I made a promise with you ... I do not intend to miss it."
His words made me happy, and I was able to give him my best smile.
Yasaka: "I'll wait for you, no matter how much time is needed." I am ashamed of my words but I was happy to say them because I was accepting it at the end, he was stunned but then he smiled at me.
Yukio: "I love you Yasaka." Then the four became particles of light, disappearing but leaving me with a blush.
---
Every day he communicated with me, he told me of his adventures and his problems, at some point I noticed that he was in poor condition, his mental stability was not correct and I had to help him.
I started to advise him and he improved a little. I felt relieved, I told him about the brand and he was surprised but accepted it without protest.
---
They had already spent ten years here, and today she was the most anxious woman inside the house because today Yukio returned.
Shuri: "Hey ... are you planning to make a hole in the floor?"
Yasaka: "Oh? And you? I see you pushing that sofa very hard, right?" She returned the question, Shuri was squeezing the side of the furniture with stretched nerves.
Shuri rolled her eyes and then: "It's because of my daughter nothing else."
Yasaka put her hand to her mouth and laughed: "Yes, your daughter, but that brand says something different."
Shuri blushed and turned her face: "It's not your problem."
Both after a while of bickering laughed among themselves and looked at each other.
Shuri / Yasaka: "Dear / Yukio-kun."
As if their words were magic, they felt a familiar energy outside.
Both women looked at each other and then ran outside, they could see a man standing there with broken clothes, he had long jet-black hair down to his back and golden eyes, a large and robust body with pale skin.
Yasaka: "Y-Yukiooo!" She went running much faster than Shuri and threw herself into his arms, he caught her, she had tears in her eyes.
Yasaka: "Y-you came back!!" She hugged him tightly as if he could escape somewhere.
Yukio: "I will not go anywhere, you know?" He put his hand on her back: "Because I came for you."
His words made her blush and she looked into his eyes.
Yasaka: "You ... Really?"
Yukio: "Don´t you remember? I promised that when I grew up I would come for you and it's time." She felt very embarrassed, but then felt something on her lips and her eyes widened, he kissed her, which was something unexpected.
But then she closed her eyes and enjoyed the kiss, it was very affectionate, they separated after two minutes.
Yukio: "I love you ..."
She smiled very foolishly and hugged him like an octopus before talking.
Yasaka: "I am your wife after all …"
