I'm really gonna be a constructor aren't I? The motto stays the same "EXPAND THIS F*CKING FANDOM! GIVE US MORE BL FICS".

*looked down to my draft books and journal then starts flipping them to and fro* Aw, damn I'm run out of TKA fics... Maybe it's not an entirely a good idea to update five stories in a span less than a month after all... Or is it? *grins to you, readers*

*starts flipping the books to search for a fun to write story amongst the very rough drafts with crappy writings* I really need to gather a meeting with the Queens after this...

Who's in the line secretary Nature Queen?

Nat: Huang Shaotian, you've also starts to ship Ye Xiu with Xiao Shiqin after the latest chapters... And also starts shipping Zhang Xinjie/Ye Xiu harder after the teaser of chapter, and you're also levelled up in your support for Ye Xiu/Qiao Yifan again because the latest chapters. Damn girl, why the list is so long?! And why every ships contain Ye Xiu!?

Thea: Because he's the Main Character, obviously.

Nat: this MC-doting syndrome has to stop... Along with your accute second lead syndrome. That's the reason why Wang Jiexi's story got two shots while Huang Shaotian is still Zero in story right?

Prologue: The end of the Perfect Duo.

To be honest, things are happening and they all are chances to be done.

Both have a dream. A same dream that they gladly shared. In fact, they shared everything to each other gladly be it money, food, shelter, place to go, place to come back, and most of all the feelings that began to grow ever since they met.

Youths they are, they knew they're destined. Fate unite a pair of orphans with a ranaway in a funny way, before drawing a thick line in between them.

They're interwined. Su Muqiu and Ye Xiu, in the future they will be a greatest duo.

Or so they hope.

The accident happened just like that and hearing the news almost made Ye Xiu have an heart attack. Cold voice informing with emotionless tone, void of any simpathy and Ye Xiu immadiately hate the owner of that voice, regardless.

Su Mucheng, Su Muqiu's sister, a girl that Ye Xiu had more or less adopted as her own younger sibling, had break down. Ye Xiu would to, after all she's a seventeen years old teenage girl that's still have much sentiments an overly emotional. But the next sentence gave her a light of hope.

"He's still alive and currently in coma"

Almost a month had passed and the only one permitted to see him after the first week is Su Mucheng. Because Su Mucheng is Su Muqiu's family in blood she have the right to see him. But the problem is, Ye Xiu couldn't.

So in the month time Ye Xiu chose, rather than mopping around in the hospital might as well she gone out doing part time jobs to pay the Hospital's fee. The duo similiarly did not see each other, longing for the day they will finally see each other again.

The time Ye Xiu finally permitted to see him, a piece of her heart broke.

Seeing that fragile figure laying helplessly on the pure white hospital bed. Ye Xiu once again forced to accepts the reality.

Su Muqiu's crippled.

Those quick hands that's always equally fast rhymed with Ye Xiu's own hands, are declared unable to be back to its' original state. Added to that, Su Muqiu's legs are also crippled with small chance to recover. The accident had taken many things... But at least it hadn't taken Su Muqiu's life.

Su Muqiu smiled at his younger beautiful friend as he caught Ye Xiu's gaze, the sunshine that usually shone in his face proclaiming his youth and eagerness is nowhere to be found, he said nothing. The eldest is aware, if he were to forcefully says something it'll come out as a complete lie.

Something like "I'm fine," is out of question.

Because that will only made Ye Xiu become more aware that everything is not fine.

But still, Su Muqiu is the oldest in their little group. He's the pillar that hold up their little precious family. He had to appear like there's nothing to worry about. Even if he were dying he'd still had to smile for them. He's a man of this family.

If even what he wanted to do is just to curl up and cry his heart out. Even when he wanted to pour all his grief and cry on Ye Xiu's shoulder. Even what he wanted is to be left alone. He can't.

This pair of girls, that Su Muqiu loves so much, need an encouragement from him. They need him as their mental support, they need to know that he's fine. They need Su Muqiu as their pillar. If Su Muqiu left or crumble before them, They'll be lost.

"Muqiu..." Ye Xiu murmured as she sat herself by the bedside. Both stared at each others communicating through their eyes sending many emotions that their mouths couldn't translate to words.

""I'm sorry,"" Both said at the same time, one with a regretfull tone whilst the other is with sorrowful one.

Ye Xiu's eyes reddened and welled in tears despite her resolve to stays firm, she let out a forced laugh and ducked her head attempting to hide her feeling.

"What are you sorry for?" Ye Xiu asked, her hands squeezed Su Muqiu's sickly pale hand as if afraid Su Muqiu would immadiately gone after that apologize.

Su Muqiu bitted his lips and looked down on the shaking and squeezing dainty hands, his heart ached, "Ye Xiu... I can't play... Wouldn't be able to play like I used to..." Su Muqiu shakily exhaled.

His dream.

His ambition.

His aim.

His purpose.

His goal.

Gone just like that... Su Muqiu's eyes started to tear up but he holds himself as he once again look at the girl who have been by his side for years, indulging his dream and accompanying him up till now.

"I'm sorry... Because from now on One Autumn Leaf wouldn't have a partner by his side anymore... I'm sorry One Autumn Leaf have to strike up the obstacle alone from now on..." Su Muqiu said regretfully.

"And most of all... My deepest apologize for not being able to keep my promise to enter the proscene with you..." Su Muqiu whispered, lovingly staring at Ye Xiu with a look of sorrow.

"I'm so useless..." Su Muqiu bitterly mumbled

By Su Muqiu's other side, Su Mucheng sniffed into her hands, "Brother..." She hiccuped.

"Don't say such a stupid thing!" Ye Xiu snapped towards the weak lying patient. Her beautiful eyes blazing with unwillingness and overwhelming sadness, hot tears flowing out like a stream.

"It's great now you're safe and... Sounds" alive... Ye Xiu finished difficultly but cannot add the real word she wanted to say.

Su Muqiu laughed, genuinely happy at Ye Xiu's display of worry.

Ye Xiu glared and rubbed her eyes, "Don't laugh," she hissed.

"Ye Xiu, I'm not a fragile porcelain. Laughing won't kill me." Su Muqiu assured despite the soreness he feels all over his body.

Ye Xiu scowled and threw a resenting glance, "Stubborn fool," Ye Xiu grumbled, whilst rubbing her wet eyes on her sleeves like a child trying to regain back her dignity but her eyes keep producing tears of happiness.

"I... You don't have to worry about me Muqiu..." Ye Xiu started,

"I'll work hard in your stead. I swear, One Autumn Leaf will rise to the very top," Ye Xiu affectionately looked down on Su Muqiu and determinedly vowed. Su Muqiu's gentle eyes stared into Ye Xiu's determined ones.

"Although it will be harder without you and Dancing Rain, I'll do it. I'll... Definitely train Su Mucheng to use Dancing Rain so in the future she could join the proscene and... I will realise our dream for you and I will work hard for it... Don't blame yourself, it's not your fault." Ye Xiu finished weakly.

Su Muqiu's eyes widened, his heart swelled in his chest and butteflies dancing in his stomach. His chest filled with so much feeling, pride, happiness, satisfaction, and other complicated ones.

"Thank you..." Su Muqiu smiled, now he's awfully aware on how much this boy has grew up in such a few years.

"It's the least I can do," Ye Xiu shook her head.

"But nothing I can do," Su Muqiu smiled bitterly. They fell into a pregnant silence and Su Muqiu is absently patting Su Mucheng's head to console her.

Ye Xiu frowned solemnly, "I'll make it to the proscene and go for the top. You'll see One Autumn Leaf's figure everywhere." Ye Xiu once again declared.

"It will be lonely without you but I'll do my best. You don't have to worry anymore," Ye Xiu said.

Ye Xiu pats her chest and vows, " I'll become the pillar to support you and Mucheng."

"I'll be waiting for that," Su Muqiu smiled. "And when that time come, I'll be your number one fan," Su Muqiu beamed.

Ye Xiu softly smiled as she rubbed her eyes which had teared up again.

"Since when you've become such a crybaby, Ye Xiu?" Su Muqiu is unwilling to see those beautiful eyes filled with tears and instead he teased Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu scowled, "Stop joking," Ye Xiu rubbed her eyes once more. Before focusing it on Su Muqiu again slightly entraced.

"I love you," Ye Xiu blurted out. Both Su siblings froze, Su Mucheng even stopped hiccuping to look at Ye Xiu questioningly.

"What?" Su Muqiu said disbelievingly, his eyes are filled with astonishment.

Ye Xiu gave a start before lovely redness slowly crawled on her face as she realized what he had just said, "I... I..." she stuttered about under Su Muqiu's astonished stares.

Ye Xiu swallowed before hardened herself to solve this here, "I... I love you, Su Muqiu." Ye Xiu stated again.

"Really?" Su Muqiu is shocked.

"You!" Ye Xiu gritted her teeth, her face is completely red to the ears. "I thought I lost you without letting you knowing my feeling. Give me a break!" Ye Xiu huffed.

Su Muqiu watched in amusement as Ye Xiu turned his head away before laughing. "No, it's just... I can't believe you actually love me back."

Ye Xiu relented, "... Huh?" Ye Xiu stared.

Su Muqiu smiled teasingly, "Yeah, I thought you're really cute... A cute runaway. Really cute, and it's just growing from there," Su Muqiu grinned bashfully..

Ye Xiu flushed "I'm not cute," she covered his face with the back of her hand.

"You are cute," Su Muqiu laughed weakly, Su Mucheng also starts giggling.

"You're not in the position to laugh!" Ye Xiu growled with red face.

"Sigh, if only I'm not restricted to move right now I would have kiss you." Su Muqiu sighed regretfully.

"Su Muqiu!" Ye Xiu bellowed embrassedly.

"Ahahaha,"

-.-.-

The first Glory tournament went with so much excitement without any hitch. One Autumn Leaf brought Excellent Era to be the champion, becoming more popular to every gamers than he-no she already is.

But no one knows who this 'Ye Xiu' behind One Autumn Leaf is. Mysterious player who won't show her face is really picking everyone's curiousity. And beside, she's also the very first player which played opposite gender character.

Who is she? What is she looked like? Was she beautiful? Either way Ye Xiu had won over many gamers' respect with her skill alone. Everyone knows she's a true expert! Striking through battles like a god descending on a mortal realm.

The Battle God!

Unknown to them, their mysterious idol is currently inside a hospital room, showing off her Most Valuable Player trophy to the ones she loves and treasures. Su Mucheng is clapping excitingly whilst Su Muqiu is beaming proudly at her

Ye Xiu also did not forget to use most of her prize money and payment for Su Muqiu's treatment whilst the rest of the money is yet again given to Su Mucheng to make a living while she's not around. After all Club member's food expenses is all on the club.

All three of the laughed at the stories Ye Xiu shared about the players she acquinted within the tournament. In the monochrome hospital room anyone could feel the warmness

Let them be like this. Enjoying life with full of excitement without thinking the consequences. Enjoying the simplicity of life without care.

Su Muqiu and Ye Xiu shared a deep meaningful smiles, silently conveying their own happiness with just that slight gesture without saying a word.

If only life could continue on like this.

It's a multi chapter one if you see my profile. And YES! Su Muqiu is alive here! I defied the cannon and went with my wish!

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

I decide to copied it here too incase anyone also questioning it. So a reader said to me that SMq only crippled his legs and his arms are still intact so why can't he play Glory as Glory is not exactly virtual reality and you only need a computer and a pair of hands to play it... READ DOWN!

I know it's not a virtual reality game and instead a manual one with computer (like we commonly used). And Su Muqiu stopped playing wasn't quite because of his legs!

It's this you see... Have you ever met someone who suffered through a heavy incident that could cause him his life? Most left crippled. Yes, mostly it's on the legs because of the back blow.

But hands are not entirely unaffected, as heavy accident like that could destroy numerous veins, arteries and many other micro organs. As Su Muqiu's accident supposedly cost his life, I'm thinking it was a very fatal one. And of course it left other effect aside crippling his legs.

Thus' his hands become rather sluggish and shaky, and his fingers' precisement dropped almost to zero. Compared to his prime time pre-accident, you could basically says he's a cripple as I imagine his APM become much worse even for Yu Wenzhou (who was famous for being a 'handicaped' god). And APM is almost everything in the proscene which filled with *freaks* with lightning speed APM. Even if Su Muqiu's still a god theoritically, he's simply a... Sad subject in practice.

That's why he's unable to play "like usual" as I mentioned in story... I've never mentioned that he could *never* play again... Anyway, sorry for the long answer, I have a knack to always speak in noisy details and I couldn't exactly stop it...

.

And I'm deeply sorry for my HuangYe

Anyways, I originally made this as an established SuMuqiu/YeXiu but midway through I changed my mind and fused my short prompt that is completely different. And established and unestablished one. I worked hard to fuse it beautifully. In my short story SMq and YX was unestablished and they were pretty light hearted. But this one is supposedly pretty gloomy and warming whilst having established relationship. But I'm glad with my choice to fuse it.
