Across the wide plains of yellow clouds that seemed to be like a painting, a group of animals began to gather. Two wolves, an ox with a red bag maybe a purse around its neck, a lamb that is drunken with a sake pouch on its back, a rabbit with a mochi mallet, a horse with a flag mounted on its back, a phoenix with a pipe, three monkeys one with a sho, one with a flute and the other monkey had cymbals, a dragon carrying four glowing orbs, a small mouse with a huge sword, a cat with a bell tied with red ribbon around its neck, a snake in a water globe with golden wisps on the globe, a boar an a cherry bomb, and a tiger with an arrow pouch on its side and a bow mounted on the tigers back, each with white fur, red markings(or in the monkey's cases showing skin),god like puffs, and tails tipped with black like dark ink on a paint brush, gathered in the clearing. It was dark and a new moon somehow shone in the clearing stars in the sky, the time of night that most humans wouldn't even be awake at. One of the wolves padded into the center. It was bigger than the other wolf in fact the one still in the crowd was a wolf pup.

"You all know why we are gathered right? "The wolf asked. Her eyes seemed as if the sun was in them. "Ok Yumigami,"it said for the rabbit seemed to want to tell the moon phase so they can keep track.

"It is the beginning of a new month according to my moon,"Yumigami said on top of his moshi hammer. Then the dragon Yomigami interrupted.

"AMATERASU!"Yomigami, god of restoration, growled in anger, "The demons are back and we are having a meeting?!"

Amaterasu standing in the center, her eyes glaring with anger, snarled,"Yomigami, you know the demons are starting to return but they are still not here !"Yomigami curled up and growled at the wolf, the sun goddess her self Amaterasu. He was not ok with her calling him an idiot but he was being hasty he knew they had to know the moon phase so they can see how long this adventure took. Yomigami stared at the ground realizing he was being baka.

"The area the demons are coming to have been discovered thanks to Gekigami's" Amaterasu paused, "and Waka's" she mumbled before continuing with the announcement, "Demon gate. "The cat padded to the center to say her part and quickly the wall goddess, Kabegami was at the center standing next to Amaterasu.

"It is in a land of my kind,"Kabegami purred her bell ringing for now she felt little more comfortable for she was a little embraced at times due to her playfulness had given her a habit of hitting the bell while she spoke and now she wasn't even touching it, "But Amaterasu mother of all that is good, is the only one who can go down there and she will need a cat form, "she continued.

"And curse me to hell if Waka shows up!"Amaterasu yipped as if trying not to laugh while speaking. The group of gods laughed. They knew they could do without the annoying, immortal, moon tribe prophet for one adventure.

The small wolf pup, Amaterasu's son Chibistaru ran up to Amaterasu,"Ammy! Don't go! "He whimpered.

Amaterasu caringly nuzzled the wolf pup, "I'll be back you'll see."Chibistaru only nodded as Amaterasu was engulfed in a yellow beam of light turning her wolf body into a cat body and then draining her of her powers, took her to earth.
