After Pit defeated the god of the underworld, Hades, all seem good. Humans were greatly thankful to the Goddess of Light and her servant. But, slowly… over the many years people forgot about the Gods and Goddess. The great beings slowly lost there powers as the humans stop praying to them. Many Gods and Goddess disappear but, Palutena decided to put herself and her angels into a deep sleep, to save what energy she had left. Only to be awaken when they are needed once more.
The Awakening
"Oh Goddess of Light, hear my prayer," a girl's voice chanted in a dimly lit room. The girl's long blue hair seems to give a soft glow in the light of a small candle. She had a small beauty mark on her pale face, covered by a white veil. She looks no more than sixteen. Her eyes were closes shut and her hands are clasp together tightly as she kneels in front of a small statue. "Please hear my prayer oh Goddess," the girl raise to feet, her long white dress shifting slightly, "Save the human race once more!"
In Skyworld…
"Pit… wake up," a women's voice called to the brown haired boy. The angel turned to the other side and mumbles out, "Five more minutes!" "You asked for this…" Palutena said. A small energy blast knocks the brown haired angel out of bed. "Hey!" Pit shouted as he landed face first to the stone floor. Pit jumped up and rubbed his face. "Sorry Pit but I need you to come to me as fast as you can," Palutena said. Pit nodded and ran out the guards' house to the large courtyard. He took a moment to look around Skyworld. The once beautiful land of Goddess Palutena and her angels is in complete ruin. All vegetation was dead and the many Greek architect buildings are slowly crumbling. It seems that the large statue of Palutena is the only thing in good shape. Pit's heart tightens at this sight. He continues on running towards Palutena's temple, not wanting to look at this heart breaking sight.
Walking into the dark temple, Pit looks around in awe. The only source of light comes from a small pond of water which Palutena uses to watch over the humans. No matter how many times he enters this place, he can never get over how magnificent the temple is. The large Greek Columns. The Stone seat Lady Palutena sits on and the high ceiling. "Hello Pit," a voice said. Palutena walks out from the shadows into the light of the pond. She looks the same as ever with her long green hair and green eyes. Pit knelt down in front of her. "How long have we been asleep?" Pit asks her. "Far too long," Palutena sigh. Palutena looks into her pool of sight deep in thought. Pit raise to his feet with worry and ask her, "What is the problem." "This one human is praying to me, asking for my help," Palutena said. "Wait, does that mean humans are praying to the gods again?" Pit asks excitedly. "No." "What?" he asks in confusion. "Pit, I want you to go down and see what is going on," Palutena said as she cross her arms. "Anything for you Lady Palutena!" Pit saluted and said, "Hey! Maybe I could even get the humans to start praying to you again!" He tried to sound optimistic. Palutena gave a small giggle and said, "Oh you are so cute." Pit scratches the back of his head in embarrassment. Palutena stretches out her hands and a light beam shines over Pit. "I'll send you right next to the girl." In a flash, Pit disappears.
The dark room fills with a bright light. The girl gasps with wonder. The light disperses and the girl's shining green eyes meet with electric blue eyes. There was an awkward silence in the room. "Um… hey?" Pit said to break the silence, "I'm Pit. I am the commander of Lady Palutena's army." "OH MY GOSH! SHE ACTUALLY HEARD MY PRAYERS!" the girl squeal in happiness. "Yes she did," Pit said with a smile, "She wants to know what is happening." "Oh yes," the girl said, "Come with me." "Why don't we just talk in here?" Pit asks scratching his head. "I don't think you would want to talk in a closet," the girl said in embarrassment."Oh, ha…ha…" Pit laugh awkwardly as his eyes adjust to the darkness. He bumps into many shoes as he follows the girl out the closet into a dark living room. Little beams shot through the close curtains. It was a simple living room with a leather recliner chair, a white couch, a glass coffee table, and a small television. The room had two small windows on each side and one large window near the front door. "Please sit down," the girl said, motioning to the couch. Pit sat down, surprise how stiff the soft looking couch is. The girl sat across from him, removing the white veil. "Pit was it? My name is Emily," the girl start, "Many years have past since all the gods and goddess "disappeared". Over the years, humans have survived without them, creating new inventions and traveling to new lands without the aid of the gods. But, there are people who are now praying to fake evil gods." "What the problem in that?" Pit asks. "I was just getting to that," Emily said, "As I was saying, if a human prays hard enough they can create the god into being." "And the more people who pray… the stronger they get," Palutena said in Pit's mind. "These people are called the occults and there are A LOT of them. All of these gods are getting out of hand. Wars, "Natural" disasters, and destruction." Pit took a gulp of air and said, "Wow, that is…horrible." Emily nod and said, "Yeah it is, but there is a underground group that main goal is the destroy the gods and eliminate the occults. But, we are a bit shorthanded. Not many people know why are these things happening so we don't get many volunteers." Pit raises up and said, "Don't worry! The goddess of light is here to help!" Emily said in a worry tone, "I'm grateful for that but no one should know that the goddess of light is helping because-" She was cut off because the was knock wide open and all the sunlight flood in blinding her and the angel.
"Hey there Emily! I'm here to bring you your daily dose of sunshine, you old hermit! Plus I brought pizza!" a girl's voice yells. In the door way stood a petit girl with short shiny black hair. Her milk chocolate color eyes sparkle with excitement. Her right eye is cover by side bangs. She wore a simple red shirt and rip jeans. In her right hand she holds a box that reads "Fratello's pizzeria." The girl looks about fifthteen years old. "Iris! Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" Emily shouts as she drags her "friend" in and slams the door shut behind her. "Why should I knock when I have your house key?" Iris laughs. Iris looks around and her eyes fell on the angel. "It seems you pray to the goddess of light," Iris said casually. Everyone in the room froze. She plop herself on the recliner chair and opens the pizza box. "Oh, the consequences of the team finding out about this!" she said dramatically. "You wouldn't…." Emily said cautiously. "Of course not! What kind of friend would I be if I told on you?" Iris said with a fake surprise. "She is quiet… the weird one," Palutena said with a small awkward chuckle. "Wait, I'm a bit confused. Can we start all over?" Pit said. "Sure!" Iris said happily, "My name is Iris! And you are?" "Pit, commander of Lady Palutena's army," he said. "You look a little scrawny to be a commander of any army," Iris said tilting her hand. "Hey!" Pit shouts. "Calm down, want some pizza?" Iris laughs. Emily just facepalms to her friends rudeness. "As I was saying…" Emily said, giving Iris the evil eye, "No can know about this because humans had relied on each other for so long that they don't want any help from any gods." "I see…" Pit said tapping his chin. "Tomorrow, Iris here will take you to the team. There you guys can find the whereabouts of some of the gods," Emily said. "That sounds good!" Iris and Pit said together. "You can take me back up Lady Palutena!" Pit said. There was silence in Pit's mind. "I'm sorry Pit… I don't have the energy to take you back up. You have to stay there." Palutena said finally after awhile. "Er…" Pit said looking up to the ceiling. "What's wrong?" Emily asks. "Lady Palutena doesn't have the energy to bring me back up," Pit said looking back to the two girls. "Well, I guess you can stay here," Emily said thinking out loud. "WOO! SLEEP OVER!" Iris shouts with her hands in the air. "NOT YOU! GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE!"
