Departure

After Elder Aku stared down Yu for a few moments, he knew that they would have to leave immediately to begin training. "We can begin training now, but it will force you to leave your family." Elder Aku warns Yu and she nodded. Even though she wasn't ready to leave, she knew that leaving would let her get stronger at her mentor's pace. She didn't want to disappoint her new mentor. She turned towards her family, including the army. Dai had small tears, but his and Trelawney's tears made her bawl her eyes out like a baby.

"I'm going to miss you all!" She wailed, hugging both Dai and Trelawney. She saw Eli about to cry and she hugged him. "Don't hide your emotions like that. It's not healthy." She gently scolds Eli and Eli started to cry softly. He was going to miss his Queen. Yu went back to Dai and he encased his wife into his arms.

"I know we're married, but I want to make it official." Dai says, sitting on one knee. Yu was shocked at this as Dai held out a box that was opened with a diamond ring on it. "Will you do be the honor of being my wife after four years?" Dai asked, making Yu squeal of happiness and cried of happiness as she squeezed him in a tight hug. Dai laughed as Yu cried. Dai was happy as he finally worked up the courage to officially pop the question to his wife. I finally decided to be a man. He thought in happiness.

After they hugged on each other for a bit, Yu finally released Dai. "I love you, Dai and I will happily be your wife after these four years." Yu promised Dai. Dai smiled at Yu.

"That's great!" He cheered, kissing Yu and letting her kiss back with the same passion that he was kissing her with. After they had split apart, Yu was saying goodbye to the large family that she had adopted as her own family. She was going to miss them, but she knew that their presence would distract her from reaching her highest level of strength that she wants to at so she can hold her own against much stronger enemies.

"I'll miss you all! Get stronger and when I return, I will be stronger as well. Believe you!" She shouted as she walked off with Elder Aku. After awhile, they had stopped walking because Elder Aku had stopped. "Why did we stop, Old Man?" Yu asked Elder Aku.

"Can you train without your powers?" He spoke without turning around. Yu knew what he was asking. She knew that she was too reliant on her powers.

"Yes, sir!" She answered with confidence in her voice. Elder Aku smiled at her answer and he turned around and he sealed her powers. The process wasn't painful, but afterwards, Yu felt less powerful that she did with her Lightning Maxina powers. Her Sword of the Angel was still light, but she couldn't swing it as easily she could before. "What did you do?" She asked, feeling the sword's weight on her shoulder.

"I sealed your powers. You will train without your powers for one year. If you can survive the first year without your powers, you will be a whole lot stronger." Elder Aku tells Yu, who was shocked at this new condition of her training, but she immediately became determined to prove to Elder Aku that she was willing to use her own half-human and half-mage power.

"Like I said before I had departed from my family: Bring it on!" She shouted with confidence. Elder Aku loved the spunk that Yu gave off. He was going to train her long and hard, until she could barely even stand. He smirked as he couldn't wait for her to be extremely exhausted where she can't even stand on her own two feet due to his rigorous training.

But, in the end, she will only become stronger. Elder Aku couldn't wait for Yu to become fully able to use her entire body without her powers as it meant that she can fight without her powers as well. Elder Aku smirked at the how hard Yu would be working soon.
