Hey again everyone, welcome back to another chapter in Master of Capture. All I can say is I did work a good amount of time on this chapter trying to make every little thing perfect.
So that being said, hope you enjoy Chapter 2!
Not knowing what to expect from the Goddess, Keima stared into Haqua's eyes with no fear or any emotion. When staring at her for a while it did make Haqua blush a little more.
"Why are you gawking at me like that in this type of situation!" She yelled to him.
Keima just continued to stare at her before being interrupted by Diana who gave him a very fierce and sharp glance.
"Any reason you…kissed that demon! "She said in a stern harsh tone.
Keima didn't show much fear at this point, being relaxed and calm the whole time.
"Well?" Diana stared at him sharply.
Keima shook his head from staring at her "It's all just an uh…" He was paused when Haqua jumped in.
"Keima just tripped!"
Diana just stared sharper at the two "You all the sudden "Trip" causing you to kiss each other? I believe that." She said sarcastically.
Keima just gave Haqua a furious glare and Haqua could get the message from it "Your only making this worse for the two of us!"
"So you two have any more excuses to share with me?" She continued in a harsh tone.
Keima took a deep breath and saved his game then looked back at Diana. "Ok Diana I'll tell you the truth."
"I'm listening."
"She kissed me!" Keima terribly lied causing him to get a huge slap from Diana.
He laid on the ground rubbing his cheek "Man I hate the real world!"
"No more lies Keima! My eyes don't lie to me and they clearly saw you kiss that disgusting demon!"
Haqua's blushed up face disappeared fast "Who are you calling a disgusting demon!"
The two came face to face both with furious faces. "I'm talking about you who else!" Diana shouted.
"Why don't you take that back you filthy goddess!" Haqua shouted back.
As the two continued their bickering, Keima laid on the ground before someone gave out their hand to help him up.
"Thanks…" When he looked up he saw it was Chihiro staring at Haqua and Diana.
"Um Keima, who are those people." She stared closely at them.
"Those are just uh…some friends of mine." He responded slowly.
"Kami-Nii Sama! Are you okay?" Elsie rushed towards Keima.
"Yeah I'm fine but…wait a minute, what are you two doing here?"
"Um…just around the neighborhood?" Elsie answered in a hopeful tone.
"Okay then, well hold on let me try and fix this."
Keima ran over to the two and pushed them away from each other "Stop!"
Diana and Haqua both stopped yelling at each other and focused their eyes on Keima.
"Listen girls just calm down, Diana the kiss between me and Haqua was nothing alright it was just an… accident."
Diana frowned at him "How is kissing someone on purpose an accident?"
"No I mean I tripped and when I tried to balance myself, I wasn't paying attention to where my face was going to causing me to kiss her, okay?"
She frowned at him and kept her fierce glare on him for a short couple of seconds, and finally spoke "Okay Keima, I'll accept that excuse…for now, but don't suspect me to let this fly by so easily."
Diana turned to Haqua "And this isn't over, for the time being."
With that said the goddess left from the scene and turned back to Tenri who looked down with a shy red face and apologized, leaving after.
The whole scene of Tenri/Diana now being gone Keima immediately sighed and went back to his PFP. "Now that's over time to get back to the world of gaming!"
Haqua watched as Tenri left and turned back to Keima "You know she's going to get us back for all this."
"Isn't it obvious?" He replied not taking his eyes off the screen of the PFP.
After the small quarrel, Elsie managed to get to them. "So how did everything go down with Tenri,Kami-nii sama?"
"It went well…" Keima said blankly.
"Also Elsie where's Chihiro?"
"She decided to leave, saying she felt sick or something so I let her go."
Keima just nodded when hearing that and left the park leaving Haqua and Elsie behind.
"Wait Katsuragi!" Haqua called out but by the time she tried to run over to him he was already out of sight.
Elsie let out a puff of air "Well this was a failure."
"What was a failure?" Haqua quickly asked.
"Um…nothing just uh..." Elsie stammered making Haqua very suspicious of her.
"Wait a second…you weren't at band practice were you?"
Elsie let out another sigh and played with her fingers "Okay, Okay there was no band practice today it was just..i tried to get you closer to Kami-Nii Sama."
Haqua didn't let out a bad reaction she just frowned a little "Elsie you didn't have to do all this, just leave all of this to me, ok?"
Elsie quickly nodded to her role model.
With a three seconds of silence passing by, Elsie broke it. "But Haqua, what are you going to do now that Keima kissed you?"
Haqua immediately started blushing red all over again "You saw that!"
Elsie was about to nod but knew it was better if to not answer at all.
"Elsie I'll deal with him myself, just don't make any of these ridiculous plans anymore."
"Yes ma'am!" She responded stiffly.
All that being said Haqua told Elsie to leave and she did so allowing Haqua to have some alone time at the park.
She sat on the bench and thought deeply "Why did I let him kiss me? I should have just showed no emotion at all, instead of turning red every two seconds."
"Or Maybe I was supposed to get kissed early, maybe it was meant to be."
At the Katsuragi household, Keima laid on the couch on his PFP having the whole house be silent. Elsie was taking a shower so it was only for a couple of minutes.
Throughout gaming though, Keima did get multiple thoughts of Haqua pop up.
About two minutes in his game he paused it "Why do I keep thinking about her? I have no interest in a real girl nor I ever will!" He yelled in his mind.
But the part when he kissed her really caused him to keep thinking about her, feeling as if he what did was stupid or the right thing to do.
Neither less, Keima stared away from the ceiling and back to the PFP.
10 minutes later, Mari came home with a bunch of shopping bags. "Keima I'm home!"
"Hi mom." He murmured.
"What was that?" She replied.
Keima didn't answer back causing his mom to just sigh. "Am I to blame for my son to be like this?" She doubtfully thought.
"Where's Elsie at?" She replied quickly.
"She's taking a shower."
"Ah, well…" Mari's response was cut off by a knock on the door.
"Hmm wonder who that could be?" She silently spoke.
Opening the door, Mari was staring at a girl with light purple eyes and black hair in ponytails.
"Oh hello Tenri! What can I do for you?"
"Is Keima-Kun home?" She quietly asked.
"Yes he is, want me to get him for you?"
Tenri shook her head.
"Alright, you're free to come in."
Tenri walked through the house to see Keima lying down playing on his PFP.
"Keima?" She calmly asked.
Keima paused his game and saw Tenri with her big purple eyes gawking at him "Yes?"
"D-Diana wants to talk to you…in private."
Keima sighed and walked towards his room with Tenri following, when the two were both in the room, he sat on his gaming chair and turned it towards her.
Before he could ask what Diana wanted, next thing he knew, her red eyes were already staring at him.
"Keima I need to have a word with you."
He just looked down at the PFP "What is it then?"
Diana's intimidating glare focused on him "As I said a couple hour's ago, I'm not letting this fly by so tell me the actual truth of what happened between you and Haqua."
Finally saving his game, Keima put his PFP in his pocket "You want the truth? then I'll tell you."
Knowing he would get killed for saying this, he took a heavy breath "I kissed Haqua."
Diana didn't say anything at all her expression as he could tell slightly adjusted into anger noticing her fist's ball up, but she easily relaxed.
"Now I must ask, why?"
"I asked if she liked me and she didn't answer so there you have it." He said with not much emotion.
"That doesn't give you the right to just kiss anyone because they don't answer you. You should know better than that Keima. Kissing a girl in an instant isn't going to make her admit things, It's just going to cause things to escalate to fast."
Keima just stared at her in response.
"And also if you really want to make this up to me and Tenri."
Her face started to blush up a little "You'd kiss me."
"W-Wait what?" Keima quickly stammered.
"You heard me, you would kiss me if you're really sorry."
The room was silent at first, but Keima dragged himself to the goddess being neck and neck with each other.
They leaned very slowly in to kiss, but when the two were now lip to lip, immediately the goddess pulled out knowing it was wrong to force the two to kiss.
"Something wrong?" Keima asked lightly.
"No, just…I'll leave but I'll find another way for you to make up for this."
The goddess went to the door and turned around "Take care of Tenri for me."
He just nodded and the goddess already transformed into Tenri who looked as if she wanted to say something but couldn't get it out.
So she just left like that, leaving Keima in his room of silence.
Keima sat deeper into his chair and thought about everything he did leading up to Tenri coming in his room.
Going through everything he kept pausing at the kiss with him and Haqua wondering for the true reason he did it.
He knew it wasn't for her to make up her mind but for something different.
"Was it I couldn't help myself? Was it I was actually attracted to a girl in the…real..worl…" He stopped his thought there.
"This is stupid there is no way that I'd ever be interested in any girl in reality, especially…her. But if it's not that then…"
Keima immediately stopped thinking and finally had the answer of why he kissed Haqua appear right in his mind.
"That's it!" He yelled.
Keima looked up with his eyes shining in the light "I have to Conquer Haqua!"
"Conquer Haqua?" A voice peeped out.
Keima turned to the door to see Elsie coming through it but all he did was let out a small grin.
"Yes, I must conquer her."
"Starting tomorrow!" He shouted in with courage in his voice.
Although it'd hadn't make any since to Elsie why Keima had wanted to Conquer Haqua, she still knew there would be some gaps and obstacles on the way.
Thanks for reading Chapter 2! I really did try to make sure everything was perfect on the characters, and focused on all the flaws that chapter 1 had being pointed out by multiple reviews. So a big thanks to those who gave me a lot of pointers and errors on the last chapter.
Chapter 3 won't come until next week so please stay tuned for that and also contribute and tell me how I did with a message, review or whatever suits you. Other than that hope you enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you next week!
