Hey everyone! Wyvernmaster here, and I'm starting one of my original anime genre stories for the first time! This story is inspired from a few anime that I personally like, and revolves around a God vs. Titan war of the ages. So, without further wait! Here it is, the first Chapter of Kami! Oni! Kami!
Chapter 1: Shin Sakusei
"Why is it so dark...", thought a teenage boy has he fell through the darkness that enveloped him like a suffocating cloud.
The boy appears to be in his teens, has straight, trim, black hair, and is wearing a blue and gold school uniform. He opens his bright blue eyes, and gasps when he sees dozens of memories forming in hazy white clouds all around him.
"W-What is all this?... ", questions the boy as he looks all around him, still falling through the unending darkness that blankets everything.
The boy can't help but feel nostalgia creep over him as he peers into each memory. He views dozens of foreign people and places all around him, but one memory strikes out at him the most. This realization of familiarity causes him to freeze in midair to focus on the picture in the cloud. The picture is of a girl with, beautiful, long, pearl-white hair, soft blue eyes, and she wears a silk, white gown.
"Woah...She's beautiful...But who is she?...", asks the boy, who now inches himself closer, almost in a swimming way, to the picture in curiosity.
"Shin!", blurts out the girl in the memory at the boy, who jerks back in both surprise and confusion.
"What...the...How do you know my name?...What is going on! Who is this girl, and what is this place!", shouts Shin in frustration at the reality he is experiencing.
"Shin!...Shin...Shin!", continues the girl in the memory over and over again until her voice begins to take over the entirety of the boy's mind.
"Shin!...You need to wake up, Shin! WAAAAAKKKKEEE UUUUUUUP!", shouts the voice until finally breaking through to the boy.
Shin jerks his eyes open, and realizes he is sitting in his classroom at his highschool with his best friend and very angry girl friend standing in front of him.
The boy is slightly short and scrawny for his age of sixteen, has bright, blonde hair, and green eyes with a pair of thin, blue, rectangular glasses framing them. Also, he is wearing the same school uniform as Shin. The boy has an astute, but also calm and friendly exterior, which is very unlike the annoyed girl standing next to him tapping her foot anxiously.
The girl is shorter than Shin, but still taller than the other boy next to her, and has long, scarlet hair with completely straight bangs that hover just above her piercing, emerald-green eyes.
"Seriously, Shin!", starts the scarlet haired girl. "If you keep sleeping through class, you're never gonna pass the tenth grade, Shin!", chided the girl while glaring at Shin, who is still trying to shake off the groggy feeling from being sleep.
"Oh, it was just a dream...Wierd...", states Shin, recollecting the dream he had as he stretches and yawns after a good nap.
"That's all you have to say!", replies the girl in contempt as she puts her hands on her hips. "Whatever! Let's just go all ready. I want you to walk to me practice before you go home!", she continues as she starts walking towards the door of the classroom.
"How did you ever find yourself with a girl like Colyne Suburu, Shin.", starts the blonde haired boy as he helps Shin gather his books up. "I mean your so laid back all the time, and she's so...not.", he continues, while watching Colyne swiftly exit the room without even glancing back at them.
Shin can't help, but burst out laughing at this, but slightly agrees with his friend in the back of his head.
"That's why I like you, Arlo! You're analysis of everything all the time makes for some good jokes from time to time. I dunno the answer to that one, though. Love's a funny thing I guess.", chuckles Shin casually as he heads towards the door, not wanting to get too far behind Colyne.
Arlo could only sighed at this, and shrugged his shoulders, saying, "You're ever the enigma, Shin Sakusei. The only person I can't read."
"Yeah, I'm cool like that, ya know!", smiled Shin as he and Arlo made their way to the door.
"Yeah, you wish! Now let's go! I'm going to be late!", scolded Colyne, not letting Shin's ego swell at all.
The three students make it to the soccer field, where Colyne's team has all ready started practice, and Colyne hurries to pull a pink notebook from her school bag.
"Here, Shin!", blurts out Colyne as she thrusts the notebook directly into Shin's chest with enough force to make him take a step back. "This is all the notes for the whole day. And you better copy them because I refuse to date someone who is going to be held back a year for sleeping.", she continued to say as she started walking towards her fellow teammates without even saying goodbye to Shin or Arlo.
"Okay! Love you too, sweetheart! Kissy! Kissy!", shouts Shin sarcastically in reply to Colyne's orders, which causes all of her teammates to giggle and fawn over their relationship.
"Seriously, dude...That's pretty lame.", states Arlo to his best friend as he looks around at all the people laughing at them.
"Nah, don't worry 'bout that. Colyne hates that romantic crap, so just watch.", replies Shin, while covering a wide grin and pointing to Colyne.
Without missing a beat, Colyne whirls around; giving Shin a look of pure, uninhibited, raw evil that would put the fear of God into any average man before storming off to the locker rooms in frustration.
"Wow, Shin. That look even scared me a little, man. I think you really...", starts Arlo as he looks at Shin, but is in awe when he realizes Shin is laughing so uncontrollably that he hunches over in what appears to be pain.
"Oh, wow! D-Did you see her face! Aw, man. Let's go, let's head for home. Ha, ha,ha!", cackled Shin to himself as he strolls away from the fence surrounding the field.
Arlo can only put his hand to his face and sigh before saying, "She may be a little up front about it, but I think I'm really starting to understand Colyne's point of view..."
The two boys make it to a small intersection, close to where both of them live, and stop to bid each other farewell for the day.
"Hey, you busy right now, man. You wanna check out the arcade for a bit. I've got nothing to do, man.", asks Shin before saying goodbye to his friend for the day.
Arlo scratches the back of his head, while putting his free hand forward apologetically, and says, "Sorry, man. I can't today. I'm almost finished making that video game I told you about the other day. Remember?"
"Aww, c'mon, Arlo! I bet we'll find that hot gamer chick you've always been looking for.", baits Shin teasingly to Arlo, who still shakes his head at the offer.
"Sorry, bro. But I really have to work on that game today, man. How about a rain check on that.", replies Arlo to his friend as he puts out his fist to say goodbye in their traditional manner since childhood.
"Ah, ok brainiac. We'll hit up the arcade another time, and I should probably should get home to see Bruiser anyway. If I know his gut, he's probably hungry by now.", replies Shin as he bumps fists with his friend as they turn their backs to each other.
As Shin walks along, he takes a look at the notebook Colyne gave him to copy, and stares at it with a blank stare on his face.
"This stuff is boring. It can wait 'til later. I'll definently do it, for sure!", thinks Shin out loud to himself in a motivational manner, a smile forming across his face. "Sorry, Bruiser! But you're gonna have to wait, boy! Daddy's hittin' up the arcade!", shouts Shin as he hurries off to the other side of town to enjoy himself doing what he does best.
As the sun is beginning to set, Shin makes it back to his small, one bedroom apartment that he shares with no roommates. Well, he does have one room mate...
"Well, that was fun. Four high scores in one day. What can I say Shin. You are a genius...No! What was it, again?", thinks Shin out loud again as he approaches his door, fumbling in his pockets for his keys, while trying to balance his books and a pizza he brought home.
"An enigma! Yeah, that's it, an enigma!", boasts Shin arrogantly to himself, continuing his conversation with himself.
Shin slides his key in his door, and stops suddenly after hearing a loud rumbling noise coming from inside his apartment. Shin knew it could only be one thing, and against his better judgement, Shin opens the door with his foot. All at once, one-hundred pounds of excited, overjoyed, drooling dog hits Shin with full force, and sends him and everything he's carrying to the ground.
The enormous bull-mastiff plasters Shin with dozens of slobber covered kisses, while taking brief moments to takes bites out of Shin's pizza, and covers Shin's face in drool and fragments of chewed pizza.
"Hello, Bruiser...", states Shin with a less than thrilled look on his face as he stares back up into the dog's big happy eyes. "Ok, boy. Hop off me. Let's go inside before...Well, I guess before YOUR pizza gets cold.", says Shin with a small grin as Bruiser steps off him, and follows his master inside.
After a quick shower, Shin rests on his couch, while eating a cup of noodles and watching Bruiser devour a full pizza like a pro right in front of him.
"Geez, you could at least try, and act like you're not enjoying it so much.", states Shin dryly, while turning on the t.v., and taking a bite of steaming noodles.
Bruiser simply returns a gleeful look to Shin before resuming his destruction of the pizza Shin brought home.
"Go ahead, and enjoy it, buddy. Sorry I was so late getting home today.", says Shin with a soft smile as he pats his only other best friend in world on the head.
As Shin watches the news, he begins to drift off into thought, and starts to remember the dream he had earlier, while sleeping in school. He remembers how odd the dream was, and is forced to concentrate for a moment, but all of a sudden he remembers a clear picture of the girl he saw in the picture. He could clearly see it now. Her fair complexion, her pearl-white hair, soft smile, and blue eyes...
"Eiyahhh! What am I thinking!", shouted Shin out loud, while stammering to his feet in a panic. "Colyne would kill me if she knew I was thinking about other girls! But then again. If she's imaginary, does that really count as cheating? Hmmm.", continued Shin to himself with only Bruiser as his audience.
Suddenly, Shin's thoughts became interrupted by a knock at the door, and he is forced to go answer it before Bruiser does another one of his famous greetings.
"Seriously, who could be knocking at this late of an hour. I swear if Arlo's coming over just to show me that game...", starts Shin in frustration as he opens the door, but the door is almost forced open.
Suddenly, a pearl-white hair colored girl around Shin's age wearing a white, silk gown burst through the door, and crashes into Shin, while giving him a big hug.
"I'm so happy you finally called me! I missed you so much, sweet heart!", proclaims the girl as she buries her head into Shin's chest.
Shin is completely in awe, and kind of scared as to who this girl is, and holds the girl back before asking, "Called you? Wait! Just Wait! Who are you, and wh-"
"Shut up! Shut up! This is all you have to say to me after a thousand years! How could you!", shrieks the girl as if a dagger has just pierced her heart. "Don't you remember anything, you imbecile! Shin Sakusei, You're a god!...And I'm your wife!", she continues woefully before covering her tears with her hands.
Shin suddenly realizes who the sobbing girl is , and drops his jaw in amazement and slight despair before saying, "Damn...So you're not imaginary after all..."
