《Douxie x reader- Book 2 From Different worlds》Chapter 10

(Y/n) POV-
As Steve freaks out I'm leaning on Claire for support. I saw Douxie's worried glances but I just ignored it. "Come one, Steve. Get it together. Knights don't scare." I heard Steve whisper to himself. The boat was drifting into the deep fog I began to feel wary about all this...
We saw a light coming from the bottom of the lake and raised up.
"It's... its... her!" Exclaimed Claire.
We had to raise our heads to look at her, "I am the Lady, Nimue, Eldest of Oracles. Why do you seek me?" She asked as her cold gaze gazed on us.
"Okay, everyone, just be nice to the goddess." Says Douxie to us. I scoffed, still leaning on Claire. "You weren't nice to me, and I'm a goddess too. You know." I said with a hushed voice. Douxie rilled his eyes and his gaze went back to her.
He cleared his throat, " Oh, mighty Lake Lady... we are here to request your aid."
"And we are missing an old wizard, if you've seen one." Says Archie.
She paused.
"I can give you what you seek."
Douxie's gave us a hidden thumbs up.
"Only you can help us on our quest to fix Excalibur and save Camelot." Douxie says as he lifted Excalibur to her sight.
The Lady came closer and took a look into Douxie's eyes to see what he truly desires.
"That is not which you truly desire. You seek redemption from a scorned mentor." She said and moved onto Claire.
"Escape from guilt."
"Validation of knighthood." "What?" Steve asked.
"And you seek... roasted salmon?" Lady asked Archie.
"Guilty," Archie says as he gave in.
Then she moved to me, "I- I don't see what you truly desire..." The lady looked at me in disbelief.

"I- I am to a goddess. I'm the Goddess of Life and Death, and I don't know what I truly desire." I said still feeling energy leaving me.
She nodded her head and proceeded on with her words, "You are not the first to try and deceive me. You are not worthy!" Her voce turned into a distorted tone.
The lake began to bubble under us. "Douxie if we ever make it out alive I just wanted to say," he looked at me with hopeful eyes, "That imma STRANGLE YOU!" I yelled while I was breathing harder. "(Y/n)?" Claire asked worried.
"Um, Mr. Magic Man?" Steve asked as he looked down and saw a giant eyeball.
"That is no lady!" Douxie yelled as he turned all's angles to see what's under us.
"You seek, you take, and all receive their final reward." Lady said.
"Time to prove my knightly skills." Says Steve.
I felt my power coming to an end, "(Y/n)!" Yelled Claire as she hugged me. "Why- why are your colors turning dark?" She asked I looked at my hands shakily as I looked all around my body turning to dark as in Balck and White. "Eh-whats going on?" I said weakly... I could feel myself falling off the bait and landing into the warm lake. I heard their faint calls but I landed in something scaly and moist.
Steve screams began to echo down below and landed with a echo splash. I opened my right eye a little and watched Steve float down and got ate my it.
The eye saw me and ate me like Steve. I tried to scream but (mY hEaD wAs UnDeR wAtEr) I felt different like I don't have a soul...
"I'm not- I'm not a knight!" I heard him say. "Steve?" I asked as I lifted myself onto the wall of the beast. He turned and looked at me with fear, "(Y/n)? Thank god! We thought you were dead!" He yelled and hugged me. "Might as well be." I said. I tried to smile but I only had a blank face. "(Y/n)? You ok?" He asked. I shook my head, "I don't know. I feel different like I have no emotion or soul..." I said. "And I can't move, my body I feel numb." I said. He began to cry. I heard mushy steps coming to us I didn't turn knowing who it is. Steve screamed and looked at Merlin. "Oh, hey, Merl. Good to see you." Steve says trying to play it cool.

"But if you guys are here, then... Hisirdoux!" Merlin says. Merlin looked at me with horror. (Y/n)! What happened to your color?" He asked. I shook my head, "I don't know. I feel dead." I said. "Ugh, Merlin! We have to find a way-" Jasmine stops and looks at me, "Ew, what happened to you?" She asked as she looked at me. "She said she doesn't know." Merlins says. Jasmine nodded her head. We could hear all the commotion from the stomach. Merlin took out a potion and told me to drink it. As Madam Puffery always says, I felt my erbgy being restored but not my color. I didn't care really, I've always wanted to be in a Black and White movie. I got up and began to stretch. The stomach began to wobble and soon we were spit out. I landed on Douxie as I screamed.
"My revenge tasted to sweet." The 'Lady' says.
I framed as I got up and came face to face with Douxie, he smiled slightly while I groaned and pushed his face for me to get up.
"Wait, revenge? What revenge?" I asked.
It began to give us the tail of Excalibur and blah blah blah.
———————
Once we got into the boat to go back to Camelot, I was looking out to the sea, while everyone was sleeping.
I felt a presence to my left knowing it's him. "So are we really over?" I asked still not facing him.
He sighed as his back to the sea. "I don't know. I do love you I do but, I don't want to put you in anymore danger." He says. I hummed in response, "I guess talking about our future was a mistake after all, right? I asked, Douxie didn't respond only by looking at me and came closer to me. He intwined our fingers, but I couldn't look at him not like this. My colors faded and I'm only black and white. "(Y/n), look at me," he says has his free hand lifts up my chin to his gaze. "Why are you crying? My love?" Douxie says as his fingers grazed my tears away. "Because, I just got dump while I lost my colors, my brother is hurt and being hunted down. And we are stuck in time trying to fix everything. I just need a break from all of this." I said in a strained voice.
He hugged me while I hugged back a sobbed.
"Will you take me back?" He asked in my ear. I looked at him in the eyes, without thinking, I kissed him hard. It took him a second to kiss back...
