Chapter 1.
A/n: This fanfic takes place after the manga... But in this fanfic's verse things about the manga's ending and final parts are a little bit different.
It was another quiet day in the other world. Momiji the Poverty Goddess was just laying around relaxing and feeling a little bored and was in a hallway. As she laid against a pillar she found herself thinking of her times back on Earth with Ichiko and the others. Momiji even thinks on how she sees Ichiko as one of her best friends.
Momiji sighed a little bit remembering that some of the times there were good ones. She also remembered how she and Momo'o parted ways when Momiji left as Momo'o had said that he loved Ranmaru too much to be apart from her.
Momiji says "I hope that they're all doing ok."
Just then Kinsker Wesel comes by smirking. He's a weasel god in his humanoid form and is wearing a black tanktop and green cargo pants with a black belt and gold buckle and brown sandals. He smiles at Momiji and waves and wolf whistles.
Momiji sees him and she scoffs rolling her eyes both the one that's visible and the one that's under the bang covering it she says while stretching her arms a bit "What do you want Kinsker? Can't you see I'm relaxing?"
Kinsker smiles "You look pretty bored to me. Maybe you and I can do something cutie pie."
Momiji said "Stuff it perv.."
Kinsker smiles "Fine... But Yamabuki wants to see you and Kumagai and she said I could come too."
Momiji sighs "Fine... Fine whatever..."
She then gets up and Kumagai comes by and follows her. Kinsker walks with them smiling with his hands behind his head. He smirked at Momiji and said "Do you have any plans later Momiji?"
Momiji without looking at him says "Yes and none of them involve you thankfully."
Kinsker pouts at this when she says this. Momiji's sees it and smirks. She thinks to herself "It brings me joy to see this super perverted jackass have his bubble bursted. He's such a pain... I miss Momo'o but it was his decision to make."
Soon after walking onward a bit she and Kinsker make it to where the room is and Momiji tells Kumagai to wait outside and she'll come and get him when she's done. Momiji and Kinsker both entered the room.
Momiji looks around the place and says "I wonder if Yamabuki ever thinks about redecorating this place or something."
Just then Yamabuki soon enters the area with Saffron her panda-like stuffed animal-esque sidekick walking near her. Yamabuki is giant in size and Saffron herself is bigger then Kumagai. Yamabuki looks at Momiji and Kinsker.
She then says to them "I'm glad you could both make it."
Momiji stretched and said "Yeah, yeah ok so what's my mission this tine huh? Or whatever it is that you've called me here for."
Yamabuki said "You sure are ready to cut to the chase.. why?"
Momiji said with a shrug "I don't know so I can continuing to relax and do nothing... Oh and so I can keep on ignoring him..."
She gestures to Kinsker who looks offended and says "How can you be so hurtful to me your dear friend and boyfriend..."
Momiji said to him "Look Weasel Boy... I've told you a thousand times... You're not my friend... And you sure as hell aren't my boyfriend."
Kinsker smirks at her "Looks like you're still playing hard to get eh?"
Momiji rolls her eyes ignoring him. Then she looks at Yamabuki and says "Ok why did you call me here anyway?"
Yamabuki said "Ok now there's a reason why I wanted you to come with Kinsker as I think you both might be up to the job for this. You see I want you both to go the the Human World. It's actually where Ichiko and the others are so it will be a familiar setting."
Momiji smiled at this and she said "What is it? Do you want me to check up on her a bit?"
Yamabuki says "You may if you wish... But that's not your mission... The mission is actually something that was assigned to me by a higher up of mine. He said that he wants you specifically to do this assignment that I have for you."
Momiji said "Oh.. Ok well what is this "important" assignment..?"
Yamabuki said after taking a few seconds "You see you have to go watch over this guy named Haman Ajisai. He and his family are currently moving to the hometown of Ichiko and her friends. He also has an abundance of unhappiness energy within him. It's more then what you would normally find in humans."
Momiji looked away for a bit as she started to think of Ikari and the thing with him. It was a big battle for her Ichiko and the others. She also remembered that when it was all over she and Ichiko had parted ways. Momo'o himself had chosen to stay as he was in love with Ranmaru and couldn't stand being away from her.
Momiji when she and Ichiko had next seen each other which was for the last time was around the time Ichiko and Keita have become a couple and Momiji learn't that Momo'o was punished by Ranmaru for that weakness and they were both happy. Momiji finds herself smiling and looking down thinking back on some good times.
Yamabuki saw that she looked distracted and sighed in annoyance "Momiji!"
Momiji snapped out of her thinking of the past as she was giving Yamabuki her attention as Kinsker snickered a bit. Momiji ignored Kinsker while looking at Yamabuki. Yamabuki continued to speak and said "Ok now that it seems like I've gotten your attention you have been requested by my superior to go down to Earth and watch over and help Haman."
Momiji blinked in surprise of this "Ok... Wait why do I have to go? How does this effect us here in the land of the gods or why was I selected of any other god out there?"
Yamabuki says "Well you see Haman's life is on the line due to all the Misfortune energy within him. Plus a dark creature from the past is feeding on him and she can use him to get strong again or even stronger and more powerful then she was long ago."
Momiji had little to no idea who Yamabuki was talking about and she said "Ok... So who is this dangerous creature lady?"
"Her name is Calthiras the Infernal Witch of the Darkness and Sorrow." Yamabuki replied.
Momiji's eyes widened in surprise at this as she remembered having heard of her before in the past and a vision in her head appears of a shadow enshrouded witch. She had always thought that Calthiras was gone for good. Kinsker himself was thinking "I wonder how attractive she is?"
Momiji then said to Yamabuki "Whoa hold up.. I thought this Calthiras hag was killed for good? How can she still be around?"
Yamabuki looks down and closes her eyes "I see you heard of her... Sadly though she wasn't killed... her body was merely frozen and sealed away between dimensions... But her body has broken apart... Because her soul ripped itself out of her and has been roaming the earth since then... For a millennium now..."
Momiji glared and said "What?! You mean some dangerously powerful and horrible creature has been loose all this time! I figured someone like you would've been on top of this sort of thing."
Yamabuki simply stated "Look I can't go into all of this Calthiras stuff now.. Anyway about your mission I think it should be prudent if I show you what Haman looks like right now..."
Momiji shrugs "Ok... I guess.. But we will talk more about this Calthiras thing later.."
Yamabuki nods in agreement with this. She then takes out a photograph and gives it to Momiji. Momiji looks at and she sees Haman who has black hair, light skin and olive green eyes and wearing glasses, a dress shirt and khakis with a black belt and silver buckle and brown loafers.
And he seems to have a somewhat forced smile. Momiji takes notice of this and thinks about why he may have that but then decides to briefly shrug it off in her head. Kinsker looked offended by Haman and said "OH MY GOD HE'S A TOTAL GEEKOID NERDLING!"
Momiji simply rolls her eyes at what Kinsker just said and put her hand on her head and shaked it out of exasperation. Yamabuki said "Ok well now then this young man is Haman Ajisai he will be attending the high school of Ichiko Sakura and her friends and today is moving with his family to someplace around her neighborhood. Also don't let his smile fool you as... Well from what I know right now there's more to him then what you can see.."
Momiji said "Ok so.. Before I go is that alll?"
Yamabuki nods and Kinsker gets on his knees and says to Yamabuki "Please my dear lady Yamabuki please let me go with my dearest Momiji please!"
Yamabuki looks at him then at Momiji and says "What do you think."
Momiji sighs "Whatever as long as he's not a nuisance."
Kinsker smiles at Momiji and glomps her and kisses her on the lips. He smiles and says "THANK YOU SWEETIE!"
Momiji punches Kinsker off and knocks him through a wall. Yamabuki sweatdrops at this. Momiji grabs Kinsker by his ear as she and Kinsker leave to get ready to go down to earth in order to start the assignment. Momiji was thinking about all of this.
This is the end of Chapter 1.
