The Disruption

Chapter 2:

Wolfram's POV...

I have been spending most of my time with Greta and Shiro while Yuri has been gone. I'm starting to think big brother is setting up these trips to human territory knowing I have already put time in for days off, he's doing this on purpose, I just know he is.

It's already been about two weeks since Yuri has been gone and though I am having a lot of fun with Shiro and Greta, (she is clearly still taken with him) I still want Yuri home as soon as possible.

Thanks to Shiro staying over, I don't feel as lonely without Yuri around, well except at night. But I'm still annoyed that they aren't back yet.

I hope he's doing okay. Considering how many villages they are supposed to visit, they shouldn't be gone for more than three weeks. But he should be back soon, if I'm not mistaken, he sent word about two days ago that he had already been to four villages and that he was heading out to the last village.

He has already made peace with so many humans, it has made things much more peaceful. He is becoming a fine king, I've never been prouder. Thinking about this peaceful time makes me happy.

It's time for lunch and I need to get ready. I have to train my soldiers today, so I will just put on my regular uniform. While walking down the hall to meet everyone for lunch, I could smell something that made my stomach revolt. I quickly bypass the dining hall and go straight to one of the bathrooms to empty my stomach. That is the second time today that this has happened and it's upsetting me.

I have been a bit cranky and nauseous for the past couple of days, but I can't help it. I miss Yuri and I have a right to be angry about that. Also my stress levels are through the roof, he hasn't sent word about arriving to the last village and that bothers me considering last time he went somewhere without me, he was attacked by bandits and hurt.

I go to the dining hall and Shiro asks me why I was so late. I told him it was nothing and made light conversation while nibbling at my food. I wasn't very hungry, which is odd since I literally have nothing in my stomach at the moment. Maybe I should go see Gisela and ask if there is something she can give me for my stomach and maybe give me some advice about keeping my stress levels down.

Another week and a half has gone by since Yuri's last message, and I'm starting to get a little worried. He's been gone for like three weeks already and the last I heard from him was four days ago to say they had arrived at the last village. I spoke with Jozak when he got back from his mission today and he is in agreement with me about the length of time since the last message. He said we had to wait for at least another day or two and if we didn't hear word by then, he would go to meet them since the village was about a three day journey from there by foot.

It's been two days since then and my nerves are causing me to get stomach cramps. Jozak says he'll leave the castle today since there is still no word from Yuri or the others. He has tried to reassure me that they probably got side tracked and should be fine, but to put my mind at ease he was willing to go right this instant anyway.

Having settled things with Jozak a few days ago, I get out of bed feeling a little refreshed and I decide to go wake Greta.

The cramps have lessened and Gisela gave me a full checkup after Jozak left. She said since what she gave me before for my nausea was not helping she had to do a full checkup to see what was going on. She made me go to her every time I had a new symptom, she should be getting back to me with the results and hopefully she can give me some medication soon to get me back to my full health.

Greta came out with Shiro and me yesterday, she seems to have had fun. The more I think about it; I really think she might still have a crush on him. I can't help but laugh when I think of Yuri's reaction to his little girl having a crush.

I have breakfast with Greta and we take a walk in the garden, just the two of us. I can tell Greta misses Yuri just as much as I do. We sit by the fountain and we have a good heart to heart. Once I see her smile I feel relieved and hold her close. Suddenly a guard comes up to me and informs us that we have a visitor. I tell them to bring our guest to the garden.

While the guard is walking away I see Shiro coming toward us.

"Hello Wolfram ... Hello Greta."

"Hey Shiro." I tug Greta's hand and snap her out of her daze.

She blushes as if embarrassed that she spaced out, "Hello Shiro".

"Greeetttttaaaaa", we hear from a distance, then I look up and see Beatrice running toward us. She runs up and jumps Greta.

She hugs Greta like I used to hug Yuri when he came back from earth. She looks just like her father with that grin plastered on her face while scratching the back of her head.

We walk up to the girls and I kneel down. "Hello Beatrice."

She blushes and does a small curtsy as a greeting, then Greta pulls her arm towards herself and I hear them giggle and look towards Shiro. The moment Beatrice looks his way, she blushes and the girls run away just like that, leaving us stupefied.

Finally snapping out of his shock, Shiro reacts "She didn't give me a chance to greet her. But they look very happy."

I look over in the direction that the girls run and smile a bit. "They do, I'm glad to see that."

"Is that so, I never knew you liked children."

"Yeah, I didn't know either. But Greta is very special to me."

Shiro smiles at me, "Wolfram, we are going for a ride today right? Let's get going."

I have been putting it off for a while now, because I wanna be home when Yuri gets back. But I guess it could serve as a good distraction and stress reliever.

"Ok, but we should have lunch here first."

Normal POV...

'I gotta get Wolfram out of the castle, he's been too restless about Yuri the past few days, and i think it's making him sick. He looks paler than usual and he has barely been eating.'

"There's no need I prepared lunch for us so we could have a picnic."

Wolfram huffs at him but just agrees nonetheless, "Oh, alright then, come this way and we'll get the horses."

Once the horses are prepared, they head off and go for a long ride. They talk about many things and Shiro just tries to keep Wolfram relaxed.

After a little under an hour of riding, they arrive at the lake they used to frequent as kids. While getting off of his horse, Wolfram gets slightly dizzy and looks faint. Shiro notices this and catches him in time. "Wolfram!"

Shiro kneels to the ground holding Wolfram, "Are you alright?"

Wolfram looks a little dazed, "I'm fine, just a little hungry I guess."

Shiro looks a bit skeptical but since Wolfram is willing to eat, he decides to let it go for now. Shiro made sure everything that was packed for lunch was nutritious and a little desert as well, in case he needs something sweet.

They sit and enjoy their time eating and talking about random events from their past. They enjoy a peaceful moment and Shiro is ecstatic that Wolfram ate a lot and even more than usual. They lay on the grass for a while in silence.

But after a while, Wolfram starts to get restless and brings up Yuri's name. He sits up and pulls his legs close to his chest.

"Shiro, I'm seriously worried about Yuri, it's been too long. He should have been home by now."

Shiro sits up as well and rests a hand on his shoulder, "Wolfram, I'm sure Yuri is alright. He's the Maoh after all. And he's not alone, so relax, he'll come home to you soon and didn't you mention that Jozak has gone to meet them as well."

"Yeah Shiro, I know he's not alone and he's gotten much stronger. But he's still my wimp. I should be by his side, I should have just gone with Jozak. Even if he does usually go off alone as a spy, I could've gone with him just this one time."

Shiro is able to put Wolfram at ease for a little while but not enough to keep him content. So he decides they should pack up and head back to the castle. While getting up from the grass, Shiro notices that Wolfram looks pale again and was about to ask if he was okay when Wolfram bolted passed him straight towards some nearby bushes.

Not understanding what was happening, Shiro ran to his side. When he saw why Wolfram had run so fast, he started rubbing soothing circles on his back, "Are you alright Wolfram?"

Wolfram nods his head and blurts out in a raspy voice "Water... Please."

Shiro hands him the water and after taking a swig to rinse his mouth, he drinks the rest of the water in one big gulp.

"Wolfram..."

"I'm fine Shiro, really."

"I don't know what you're idea of fine is, but you don't look fine to me."

Wolfram gets angry and springs up abruptly to make an angry retort, but this movement causes his head to swirl and he would have fallen on his face had Shiro not put out his arm to hold him steady. "You still insist that you are okay?"

Wolfram wants to argue, but he knows what just happened was very strange so he shook his head negatively for Shiro to see.

"Good. Now that you admit you are not okay, we need to get you to see Gisela as soon as we get back."

While on their way back, they pass by Ulrike's place and see guards heading towards Ken Murata, the Great Wise Man.

Wondering what is going on Wolfram has a bad feeling and decides to go over. He overhears Yuri's name and gets closer to them.

Wolfram gets close enough to hear part of the conversation that the soldier is having with Ken.

"What do you mean Yuri was attacked by bandits!" Wolfram yells before getting off his horse.

Ken and the guards get startled seeing an enraged blond with blazing emerald eyes sprinting towards them threateningly.

Shiro, who was right on his heels tries to rush towards Wolfram to calm him, but isn't able to do so in time.

Wolfram walks right up to the soldier, grabs him by the collar and barks out "What do you mean Yuri's group has been attacked by bandits? And what about Jozak, he was supposed to be meeting up with them."

'Alright, it's already been over three weeks and I was wondering why the hell Yuri wasn't back yet. I can't take this anymore, Anissina and the others have told me to relax and that maybe things got delayed, but this is just ridiculous. Even mother has come to visit and she found it just as strange. Shiro has been coming by every day to keep me calm and distracted but it wasn't helping anymore. I knew something was wrong.'

"Lord Von Bielefeld, please let go of the guard and let him finish." Ken and Shiro help the guard get away from Wolfram and while Shiro holds onto Wolfram, Ken tries to hear the rest of the soldier's message.

Ken sighs in relief hearing that Jozak surprised the bandits and was able to get the upper hand. 'Thank goodness, they are safe and will probably be here by tomorrow afternoon since they will have to rest tonight in a nearby inn about a day's ride from here. Hopefully this news will calm Bielefeld down.'

'I've been keeping calm in front of Greta and reassuring her that everything would be fine, but I was still really worried. What could have happened? He was attacked by bandits again. How could I let this happen? I swear I should have gone out myself to find him. Next time I don't care if I have submitted days off or not, Gunter stays and I go. I don't care if Yuri is not a cheater, he will not be leaving home without me again. If i can't go with him as a soldier, I'll just go as his fiancé.'

Shiro looks at Wolfram's pale face, "Wolfram did you hear that, everything is fine. Heika will be back by tomorrow, there is nothing to worry about." Wolfram keeps ignoring everyone around him.

"Geika, he's not listening, I think he may be in slight shoc..." Shiro couldn't even finish his sentence, Wolfram pushed him back and ran to his horse.

"I'm going to go find Yuri!" Screams Wolfram over his shoulder. He gets on his white steed and is gone in a matter of seconds.

"That brat, he didn't listen to anything at all. Geika what do we do?"

"We have no choice, we have to go after him. Honestly, he is so much like Shinou it's scary." Ken thanks the soldiers and has one of them go to Covenant Castle to let Lady Celi and Anissina know of the situation.

Shinou pops up on Ken's shoulder and whispers, "Hey, I do too listen", Ken just chuckles and gets on a horse to go after Wolfram with Shiro.

"Geika?"

"Von Bielefeld couldn't have gotten that far."

"Don't underestimate Wolfram, he seemed kind of desperate. It's like he tuned everything out. Why even bother asking the questions if you won't listen to the answers." Shiro himself starts to become nervous.

Ken notices and tries to calm his nerves, "Don't worry, he doesn't even know where he's going, he'll realize this and slow down or turn back."

Shiro scouts up ahead and Shinou pops back up.

"I don't think so, my descendant is very stubborn, he'll continue forward until he finds Yuri. We must hurry and find the boy. There is a storm coming, and he's being far too reckless. Not to mention Yuri will probably sense something amiss through the rain and then we'll have two reckless boys on the loose."

Chapter 2 End

Luna note:

So I came back and reread my first chapter. I redid chapter 2 and reposted, not sure where I'm gonna go with this yet. R&R, I'm still debating what to do next, I have two different ways I may want this to go and I can't decide yet.
