Nozaki sighed. What was he thinking when he agreed to create a story about a god? His experiences ran towards girls romances, not gods.

He looked down at a hand drawn advertisement, he'd found it on his walk home. It read, "This god will help you!" It had a badly drawn stick figure in crayon and a phone number written underneath.

He showed it to Sakura, "Maybe I can question this person about gods, he claims to be one."

Sakura shook her head, "I don't think that's a good idea, I don't think gods advertise that way..." she trailed off in defeat as Nozaki held his cellphone to his ear.

Suddenly, a man appeared on top of her work table. "You have picked the right god for the job!" he exclaimed as Sakura shrieked in surprise. "I'm Yato!" He struck a pose, "You may worship me!"

A gleam entered Nozaki's eyes. He began to rattle off questions to the god as he sketched.

Sakura inched her way backwards, when someone tapped her on the shoulder. She let out a squeak and leaped towards Nozaki to hide behind him.

"Well that was hardly necessary, I was only trying to get past to apprehend that witch." the young man pointed to Yato.

"Witch?! I'll have you know I'm a GOD! Who and what are you to presume I'm a witch?!"

"I'm Death the Kid, renowned Soul Reaper. How is it a god hasn't heard my name? Furthermore, what in the soulless world are you wearing?! Look at that hair! My eyes burn from looking." The Kid struck his own pose as he talked.

"You're not human, you must be a phantom.. I'll strike you down you impudent puppy! Sekki!" Yato stopped in confusion. "Ugh! NOW where did that boy go?" He glared at The Kid, "No matter, I won't need a shinki to take care of you!"

The Kid smirked at Yato, "No weapon? Too bad, I'd lend you one of mine, but they're a matched pair, now Patty-" The Kid stopped and looked towards the door. No one was there. "I told them to stay in formation behind me! I bet they stopped in at that cafe, even though I told them we were working!"

While The Kid was turned and muttering, Yato leaped at him. "How dare you call me a witch!"

"A sneak attack? How dishonorable! When I'm finished teaching you a lesson you'll have symmetrical black eyes and broken arms!"

Sakura tugged on Nozaki's jacket, trying to get his attention. "We need to stop them, they're wrecking your home!"

"hmm?" he said, eyes still intently watching as Yato pushed Kid into a bookshelf, knocking a bottle of ink onto Kid's head. "Things are fine, no one is close to dying, and this might be the only chance I'll have to sketch out a real brawl. This is great material!"
