Well howdy-doo! I decided to make an OKAMI fic 'cause this idea's been floating around in the void called my brain for a while, and I thought it'd be nice to post it.
So, as usual, I need to put a disclaimer up to prevent myself from getting sued:
I do not own OKAMI. CAPCOM does. SO DEAL WITH IT.
On with the prologue!
This tale unfolds several months after the defeat of Akuro by Chibiterasu.
It is a tale of the sun and the moon, of yin and yang, of light and dark...
But first, you must learn of Onikaru, God of the Moon and rival of Amaterasu.
This story is nine months before Akuro's defeat, and the day that peace was restored to Nippon... Or so it seemed.
Look at her, howling at the sky, warding him away. She had slain the 'mighty' Orochi, who had been pestering the inhabitants of Nippon like he owned the world. He didn't. And niether did she. The one who owned this mortal world was the one warded away. The one is Onikaru, the True God of the Moon. She was Amaterasu, Goddess of the Sun and the 'supierior' of the dieties and gods. The Gods had created Nippon to see what would come from it, but they soon became bored of mortal afairs. So they gave it to Onikaru, barely caring what was to happen to that world. All of them were more interested in finding a way to get rid of the demons that kept pestering them and the Celestials. All exept for Amaterasu.
She was always on his back, wondering what his next 'plot' would be. She was against him just because he was the God of the Moon, and she was the Goddess of the Sun. She always considered him evil because he was the opposite of her, and she was 'good'. He wasn't like that.
He was good-natured at heart, giving the mortals plentiful harvests and gifting them with divine power. He used the privilage handed to him as a way to show he was good. But she never believed him. She always thought it was another 'plot' of his, and that he would try and take over once he had the trust of the others. So she banished him into the realm of Yami, without the knowing of the other gods, and thus took Nippon from him. That was the day that Orochi was released from his imprisonment. It was all because of her.
Onikaru scowled at the Sun Goddess. Ever since his imprisoning, the faith for him had faded. Then that tree, Konohana, sprouted and wiped the so-called 'demons' who had kept his faith off the face of Nippon. He wasn't remembered by anyone. Not even her.
Her howling weakened his already-dwindling strength. His godly form was now but a black wolf with little muscle. That mouth with an eye called Akuro had used this realm as a host to assure that he wouldn't die, but he long ago left, taking much of the remaining strength of Onikaru with him. The God knew his time was coming. He would be gone completely from the world soon. As a final effort, draining all his remaining life force, he howled into the darkness around him. It swirled as stirred as it began to create a form in front of him, the form of a small wolf pup. He collapsed onto the ground, his death near, and hoped that the shadows would keep this pup safe, hoping instead of praying because even the Gods had forgoten of his existence. And with that, he closed his eyes, as if into deep slumber, the shadows sweaping him away, leaving nothing but a black pup.
That's a good start to the story, right? RIGHT? RIII-
