Conquistador!SpainxAztec!Reader: Chapter 5

Tag-team with Honey-sensei!!!
~~~


     You lie in your chamber. Looking into nothingness, your eyes glazed over.


     It had been a week since the fire, your mother had died, leaving you to live with your father.


     He had tried his best to cheer you up, but you gave up talking and he had to force you to even eat.


     It was quite correct that as of now, you were a hollow shell. Lost in mourning and your own self-pity.


    ~~~Spain's POV~~~


     Seeing ____ in the state she was in hurt Antonio. However, he too knew what it felt like to lose a loved one. He wished there was something he could do to help. After a moment of contemplating, he finally decided that maybe a necklace or bracelet would help.


     Antonio searched through the city for something that ____ would love, finally seeing something was gorgeous. It was a gold bracelet with purple and dark blue gemstones in it. Antonio looked to the merchant and asked, "How much would this cost?" "Nothing. You must be one of the foreigners around here. We don't use money." The merchant said, handing Antonio the bracelet.

~Le time skip~

     As Antonio was walking back to the palace, a very familiar white bird flew right in front of his face. It smelt of wines, and cheeses. "Pierre? W-What are you doing here?" the Spaniard asked.

     The small bird flew around his face and away, beckoning for him to follow, which Antonio was happy to oblige.

     After following the bird through the city and over a cause way out of Tenochtitlan. The bird began to slow, then perching onto the shoulder of an also familiar body.

     "Bonjour, mon ami. How has your scoping of the land gone?" The man said. "Hola, Francis." Antonio said stuffly.

     Damn, i was hoping he wouldn't come. "You didn't answer my question, Antonio. Have you found any riches?" Francis asked slyly.

     Antonio didn't want to answer these questions, if he said yes then the whole city would be ravaged and all killed, including his precious ____. If he said no, however, Francis would leave the city alone for a longer time, hopefully enough for Antonio to think of something, but he would risk punishment.

     "No, I haven't seen anything worth while as of yet." Antonio stated, covering his lie to the best of his abilities.

     "Is that so? Fine then." The Frenchmen replied, seeming to not notice the lie.

     "I'm going to scope out more, try to find anything that i can." The Spaniard replied stiffly.

     "Fine," Francis started, running his fingers through his blonde hair. "While you look around, there is a nearby village, with riches never amiss. I will be taking over there, and while I do, find anything you can."

     "I will." Antonio said, monotone coating his voice.

     "Revoir, Antonio." Francis said, before walking away.

     Antonio let out a sigh after the frenchman was gone. I have to find a way to save ___. I will not let my love die.
