Peach Fuzz

Missing You

I looked up at my mother's portrait again. "Mom, I wish you could tell me it will all be okay."

"I want to go home." I said as my voice cracked.

"Y/n?" I hear Nezha's voice.

"Nezha." I cracked a smile. "What are you doing?"

"I heard your voice, and I wanted to check on you." Nezha rubbed the back of his head with a timid expression on his face. "I also have something for you."

"That's sweet. Let's go to my room so we don't have any servants spy on us, just in case." I told him.

"Agreed." Nezha nodded.

Back in my room, with Nezha, I plopped down onto my bed.

I sat back up. "So, what did you want to give me?"

"This." Nezha held out a sacred peach. "They're finally ripe, so I got you one. Like I promised when we first met."

I smiled, taking the peach from him. "Thank you."

I scooted back on my bed, patting the spot next to me. "Come on, I can't eat this peach myself."

"I couldn't." Nezha shook his head.

"Now." I said sternly.

"Okay." Nezha sat beside me on my bed.

I rested my head on his shoulder, feeling him stiffen up, but soon relaxed. "You're the only person that truly cares about me in this place. You're the only one I can turn to when I'm sad, angry, or upset."

"I'm honored you think of me that way." Nezha said as I felt him run his hands through my hair.

"Yeah..." I say as I gave Nezha a peach slice to eat while I age a slice as well. "I hope my dad's journey ends soon."

"I do too." Nezha said. "Being torn from your father when you were so young was wrong, and you didn't even get to say goodbye."

"I'm glad you're the only one that thinks that. No one else here thinks so, not even my a##-hole of a grandfather." I smiled at Nezha.

"I believe that you will see him again before you know." Nezha told me. "And both of you will embrace each other and never let each other go."

"Thanks, Nezha." I looked at him.

"You're welcome, my lady." Nezha smiled.

(16 years later)
It was about late in the evening as I lay on my bed, just minding my own business, until Nezha busted into my room.

"The journey is over." Nezha pants.

I immediately shot up from my bed. "Take me to the throne room."

"Yes, my lady." Nezha nods as we hurriedly made our way to the throne room.

Now, we're on the throne room, where the Jade Emperor sat on his throne, and Li Jing, Nezha's father, was standing off to the side.

"I want to see my Baba." I glared at the Jade Emperor.

"You are not to see that troublemaker. You are my granddaughter, and you sit set an example. I allowed you to wallow in pity, but your place is here." The Jade Emperor stated.

I looked down at the floor as a shadow covered the topnoart of my face.

"But, your highness, she is miserable. She should at least see her father after so long of being trapped." Nezha pleaded.

I was in shock when Nezha stood up for me.

He wasn't one to go against the Jade Emperor, but here is, doing just that.

"Nezha, enough." Li Jing cuts in.

"But--." Nezha tried to speak, but Li Jing held up his hand, making him reluctantly stop talking.

I clenched my hands as I muttered something.

"What was that? Answer me!" The Jade Emperor demanded.

"I said... my home... is with my... TRUE FAMILY!"  I bellowed out, waves of gold and jade-colored power being sent out, causing Nezha and Li Jing to be sent back, as well as the Jade Emperor hitting his head on the back of his throne.

I panted as I stared at my so-called grandfather. "Unless you want another havoc in heaven, and have the big guy seal away your granddaughter, the ONLY blood family you have left, you will let me go and be with my Baba."

The Jade Emperor glared at me, but I didn't falter.

"My mother agreed to the marriage with my father because she wanted to escape this hell you put her in." I said, watching the Jade Emperor flinch at the mention of his daughter.

"I have heard enough of your tongue." The Jade Emperor growled. "Nezha, escort her back to her room."

"Come on, Y/n. I know you're mad, but save your anger for a later date." Nezha placed a comforting hand in my shoulder as he led me back to my room.

"Fine." I growled.

Back in my room, I raged while Nezha watched me.

"That pompous a##-hole!" I three everything off my dresser in frustration. "500 and something years of being trapped here, and the Jade Emperor still has no shred of mercy."

"Y/n, I wish I had the words to comfort you right now, but I cannot think of any." Nezha frowns.

"It's okay, Nezha, you don't have to say anything." I sighed, but then I noticed my staff hanging from my necklace in the mirror on my dresser.

I ripped it off my necklace, making it grow to normal size, and then I smashed the mirror with it.

"I don't care if it takes another 500 years or so, I will train and learn everyone's moves here, and when I do." I stabbed my staff into the ground. "I'll escape and make them all pay."

A/n-The next chapter is obviously gonna be 500 years later, but also about 2-3 years before the start of the show. Y/n will also be escaping the Celestial Realm next chapter.

Have a good day or night.
