Leon walked out into the town street and a group of soldiers walked into town, they looked just like guards to the dungeon that held Selina, Leon kept his head low as he walked past, but the guards stopped him at the gate "We need to see your identification sir before we let you leave town." Leon used his quick thinking and reached into his pocket to fiddle around then turn around "Sorry, I must have forgotten it back at the shop, I'll be back soon!" A man in a set of robes walked up to the guard and whispered to him, then Leon sighed and started running, a few guards caught wind of it immediately and chased after him, Leon prepared his ring as he turned a corner, then he activated it bringing him back to the cave.
Leon caught his breath and looked at his lifeless hand, he was too busy zoning out that he didn't notice the three pairs of eyes staring at him. Leon panted a few more times then looked up to see three angry faces, Leon instantly hid his hand behind his back "Hey, you all are awake this late in the night? How about we all go back to sleep and relax huh?" Leon laughed awkwardly as they slowly closed in on him.
Leon sighed and sat down as the girls pounced at him, Leon braced, but he still slid all the way back to the cave wall behind him, he laughed and looked at Violet who was pouting "Why did you leave me, darling?" Naomi shifted a little then also responded "I would like to come on your next nightly expedition." Selina's voice hadn't returned but Leon could make out some of her words "I didn't allow you to leave my side yet." As all three girls shone in their different ways, Leon put his hand over his face to hide his embarrassment "Look, girls, I just went to go talk to the doctor in town before they shut everything down."
Naomi looked confused and Violet and Selina just sat next to him each on an arm "The guards have already shown up in the town nearby, they will probably stay there until things calm down." Leon notices his left hand resting on his lap and he moves it behind him "I see, they work very quickly, why did they want Selina so bad?" Selina looked at Naomi and opened her mouth to speak but Leon covered it "Let's save questions for when your voice is better, until then, just rest and relax here." Selina blushed a little then nodded as she noticed something was off, Leon quickly retracted his hand and used it to hold Selina's hand down "S-so anyway, I'm going back to sleep, you all can do whatever you want now."
Leon stood up and walked over to the bear fur, sitting down on it and laying back on the fluffier part he made to be the heading. Violet crawled over and yawned as she laid on top of Leon, Selina laid down next to Leon staring at him, Naomi blushed a little then sat down to lay but Selina hopped in front of her and took that side, Naomi frowns but went to the other side.
After a few minutes and Leon is sure that everyone is asleep a cracked voice speaks next to him "Is something wrong with your hand? I felt it back when you put it over my mouth and I feel it now when it's holding me." Leon turned his head and looked at Selina who laid on his arm staring at him "I-I broke my fingers, the doctor said it might be permanent damage so I didn't want to worry you all."
Selina smiled and grabbed his broken hand, putting it into her hand and squeezing "I will support you forever, your the only man who accepted me for being myself, I'm sure these two girls will too." Violet's hand bunches up his shirt as she looks at him, being awake, Naomi moves closer as she is also awake. Leon laughed then sighed as he laid his head back and thought about what to do "I don't know what to do about it, I don't want to worry you all but I do that by not telling you too. Maybe I should just give up on hiding anything from you three."
Violet smiles and answers "I will love you forever darling, so no matter what's wrong with you." Naomi and Selina nod in agreement, Leon uses his working hand to cover his eyes as he silently sheds a tear, he feels soft, small, and peachy lips on both of his cheeks then, one more on his lips. Leon wipes his face and gasps as he thinks of something, Leon sits up and holds on to Violet before she falls off of him, then he pauses "I know what to do, but I'll need your help." After the initial shock, all of them nod and follow him.
Leon sifts through some metals and crystals he has, he picks up one and tosses it back, he pauses and picks up another as he smiles and walks back over to the fire "This will hurt a lot so Ill need Violet to help me make sure the tool is cut correctly, Selina to watch and make sure I put it on correctly and Naomi to hold my hand steady." They all nod, then Leon gestures to Violet to come over as he holds the metal up and puts a load of magic into it and starts shaping it.
After some shaping, he pulls a small piece off and shapes it into a knife, he finishes shaping the main piece and hands it to Violet who sprays it down with water and makes sure that all of the metals don't hit each other when they move, Leon walks over and lays his arm down in front of Naomi and Selina, Naomi grabs his arm and holds it down, Selina positions herself as Violet sits next to Leon who takes the metal with his available hand and starts showing them what he was gonna do.
After explaining, Violet and Selina look at him in horror "I-is that ethical at all? Will you be ok?" Leon looks at Naomi and smiles "Don't worry, after the initial set in, and if we do it right, I'll be even stronger afterward." Leon sighs and hands the knife over to Selina, as he uses his free hand to temporarily hold Violet's. He grinds his teeth as he tries to hold in his cries of pain, eventually letting go of Violet's hand and continuing himself.
Leon opens his eyes and sits up, Violet had been laying on him, holding him tightly, along with Selina and Naomi on his sides. Leon pauses as he looks at his arm, he moves his fingers up and down and smiles, he turns his hand over and looks at the metal over the back of his fingers, all of them were successful, Leon takes his other hand and examines the metal joint and the metal straights. As he was admiring his work, Violet woke up and paused as he admired.
"I think we did it right but you weren't there to see the finished produced, you fell asleep and you didn't wake up once we finished." Leon smiled and looked at Violet "If I hadn't coated that knife in that powder, I would have blacked out much earlier, probably been in more pain too-" Violet hugged him and started lightly crying, Leon smiled and hugged her back, right as Selina and Naomi woke up and saw what was happening. Leon looked at them smiling and held his arms open more as they all hugged him, he fell back and laughed.
Leon stared at his newly improved fingers and moved his crystal ring over to the bionic ring finger "I'm gonna go to town and show this to the doctor, so I can keep him from worrying." Selina opened her mouth and paused before speaking "I love you." Leon flinched and looked at her, she smiled and Violet and Naomi looked at him "I just wanted that to be my first words when I got my voice back, I didn't want to say anything else to you." Leon remained speechless as Naomi stood up and pointed at him "I love you too if we all are confessing our feelings." Leon sighed as he looked at Violet and back at them "I'm sorry, I have feelings for Violet I don't want to upset you but I don't want to leave Violet out."
Violet looked shocked at Leon as the others all did the same "Wh-what?" Violet sighed and laid her head on him as she explained "In this world, marrying multiple women is a common thing for wealthy men, if you deny them then you are saying you don't love them." Leon thinks and sits up "B-but I-" Violet interrupts him as she looks up at him "I won't mind if you give them your love too, I have plenty of you already, plus I can tell they make you happy." Leon sets Violet to the side as he thinks, he tries to think of a logical outcome he should choose but his feelings are overflowing "I-I will decide when I get back from the doctor. I will give you an honest answer, and I will not lie." Leon stands and catches his breath as he grabs his coat and puts it on "I can wait as long as you want." Selina nods in agreement with Naomi as Leon sighs and walks out...
