Dark: Sup you good looking studs! Guess who almost was going to be late with an upload? Not this guy, cuz I was late by a day. HA! Have a great reading.
"Where am I?" Danny asked as he looked around as he was looking, a vision came up, and he found that he was in an alley, looking down at a man in silver armor. 'Perseus, the Hero.' He thought. All of a sound, and emotion sprouted from his chest. Rage. Lots of it. A scythe formed in his hand, and he watched as Perseus looked at him with fear.
"Wait wait—." That was as far as he got when Danny brought the scythe down on him, cutting off his arm. Danny felt himself smile as he brought his scythe up again to kill the hero before him, but his mind screamed at him. 'STOP!' Danny put the scythe down, and he felt his own head split in two as two large, red snake eyes stared at him.
"No." He felt himself say, raising the scythe up and bringing it down again.
Danny gasped as he woke up. He looked around, and saw that he was in a room, and not an alley. Sweat was coming down, and he moved to wipe it, only to see that his arms were pinned down. He turned his head and looked around more carefully. Yuki was asleep on his right arm, and Charlotte was on his left. Dani was asleep on his chest, with her arms around his neck. Danny didn't know how she got in, or when she did, but he did nothing. He just sighed and closed his eyes, hoping that he was still able to sleep.
Line Break
"Hey Shizuka. Isn't it a little early for visits?" Danny greeted when Shizuka knocked on their door the next day. She was wearing a school uniform today. The girl just glared and spoke.
"Follow me." She walked away, and Danny sighed. He quickly got his shoes and ran after her.
"Where are we going?" Danny asked as they walked. They stopped a few steps away from his house, and Shizuka turned and walked into her house. Danny deadpanned. "You could've just asked me to come over." He walked into the house. He took off his shoes and looked up, only to see that Shizuka was glaring at him with her arms crossed. "Did I do something?" He asked. She huffed and walked away from him. He sighed, and decided to follow the strange girl.
Line Break
"So, why did you move here?" Danny heard Shizuka ask as he cooked. The girl was surprised that he could cook at first, and to see if he did, she told him to make her a rice ball.
"My parents are at a convention, and they decided to drag me and my family along for the ride."
"Where are they?" She asked. Her face was settled into a bored look as Danny cooked, but it was changing as she talked.
"At a hotel." Danny answered.
"And they left you with four girls all by yourself?" She was getting that 'you-are-horrible-but-I-don't-care' look on her face again.
"Yep. They're my sister, cousin, and friends." Danny said. Her look was full force now.
"You're just like Godou."
"How so?"
"He has so many girls wanting to date him, but he can't see it." She said, resting her head on her arms.
"Huh. I thought that blond girl was the only one that wanted to date him. Are you saying that there are others?" Danny looked back to see that Shizuka was nodding. "Well, why don't you help him?" That got her head off of her arms.
"W-What?" She asked, her cheeks pink.
"Help him. If he really does have people wanting to date him, help him out. That's what I would do." Danny said. "Done." He turned and showed her two rice balls, both still warm. "Still doubt me?" He asked. Shizuka swiped a rice ball and ate a piece of it, grains of rice hitting the ground.
"Not bad, but not good either. The rice is too stale." She said, taking another bite.
"Good, then I'm improving." Danny said.
"What?" She said, almost choking on the rice ball.
"This is the third time I made a rice ball. Fourth if you count this." Danny held up his rice ball, and bit it again. Shizuka glared at him, but settled for eating the ball of rice instead of hitting him with a ladle. Danny and Shizuka ate in silence, and the doorbell rang out. "I got it." Danny said, finishing his rice ball. Shizuka gasped and tried to run after him, but tripped and fell onto her stomach. Danny opened the door, and Shizuka glared at him and picked herself up. She brushed off the rice that had gotten on her chest and stomach.
"Hey Godou." Danny said. The other Campione stared at him, shock on his face. "Wanna come in?" Danny asked. Godou nodded. Godou and Erica came in through the door, and Danny watched Shizuka glare at them both, but Godou especially.
"So, how was your vacation?" Danny asked, making Godou freeze as he was putting down his luggage.
"How did you know about that?" He asked.
"Shizuka told me." Danny said, pointing to the girl.
"You and Onee-chan are friends?"
"Don't know. Are we?" Danny asked, looking at Shizuka. She nodded. "I guess we are." Danny said.
"Why are you in my house?"
"Shizuka invited me over, in her own way." Danny said.
"Godou, stop questioning our guest and greet him." Shizuka said. Godou sighed, and bowed. Erica snickered behind her hand, and a blue wisp escaped Danny's mouth.
"I'm Godou Kusanagi. Welcome to our humble aboad." He said. Danny in return decided to mess around. He bowed to Godou.
"It's a pleasure to be here, sir Kusanagi." Both Shizuka and Godou looked horrified, and Erica was still stifling laughter behind her hand. The doorbell rang.
"It's open." Godou said. The door opened to reveal a girl with white hair and glass eyes. She was smiling.
"Hi, can I come in?" Yuki asked. Godou sighed. There went his peaceful return.
Line Break
Danny, Godou, Erica, Liliana, Shizuka, Yuki, Charlotte, Dani, and Jazz were all in Godou's living room. Danny was on one side while Godou was on the other. After a few moments, Danny decided to stand and grab Godou's shoulder.
"Godou, I need to talk to you in private." Danny said. Godoiu stood, and the two Campione walked out of the house and stood by the door.
"Why'd you call me out?" Godou asked.
"It was getting tense in there, and I wanted to talk to you, it's about Athena."
"Let me guess. She said that there was some big battle about to happen?"
"How do you know?"
"She told me in Italy."
"She told me that she was going to be used against her will." Danny said.
"So, we have that there's going to be a fight that she's going to be a part of, even though she doesn't want to be a part of it."
"She also said that it revolves around the Starry Night prophesy." Danny added.
"I thought that we prevented that prophesy."
"I guess we didn't, or maybe there's some sort of backlash from it?" Danny guessed.
"Don't get your hopes up." Danny and Godou looked up to see Yuki and Erica staring at them.
"A prophesy is bound to happen at one point or another." Erica said.
"It can only be delayed, not stopped." Yuki said. Danny's eyes glazed over, and his fist clenched.
"The future isn't set in stone." He said, his hair shadowing his eyes.
"Danny?" Yuki said, reaching a hand out to him.
"Yeah?" Danny said, looking up, a confusing look on his face. Yuki pulled back.
"Uh… nothing." She said, turning away.
"Anyway, we need to know where this fight is going to take place, and when." Godou said.
"You're right, but we can only wait. Either Athena is going to tell us, or we'll find out a little too late." Danny said. "You're the strategist here. What should we do?" Godou looked at him with a shocked expression.
"I… don't know." Godou said. Erica and Danny sighed.
"You are a terrible Campione, Godou." Danny said, facepalming.
"I never asked to be a Campione!" Godou shouted.
"But if you didn't become one, then you wouldn't have been able to save me and earn the reward of my body later." Danny's eyes widened at that.
"Godou you sly dog." He grinned.
"Erica, stop trying to mislead them!" Godou said. Danny and Yuki laughed at the couple.
"Where's the Gorgonian?" Charlotte said, stepping out of the house. Everyone looked at her.
"What?"
"The Prophesy follows the Gorgonian, and if it is related to Athena, then I have a feeling about who the Prophesy is about."
"Who is it?" They asked.
"I need the Gorgonian." Charlotte said, though her Japanese was a little hard to understand.
"The last time I saw it, Danny had pulled it out of Athena." Godou said.
"155 meters east, 32 degrees towards the south." Danny said, taking off. Everyone stared and followed him. Danny kept saying distances and changing directions, but in his mind, he had no idea where he had left the Gorgonian, but his fifth Authority from Typhon was glowing. The shape and picture was still unclear, but he could tell that whatever he was missing, he would be able to get it back.
Soon, he was in the field where he and Godou defeated Athena, and the glowing in his mind stopped.
"If you're going to take off like that, give a warning." Godou said, panting. Danny looked around the field, but he couldn't see anything that resembled a stone medallion.
"Where is it?" He asked, looking around. The glowing came back, and he could see a purple trail leading from the ground to the sky. "It's gone." Danny said, stunning everyone around him.
"How can it be gone?"
"It is, and since Athena isn't grown up anymore, I'd say that someone else took it and left, probably a god." Danny said. The glowing stopped and the trail disappeared from his vision.
"Who do you think could've done it?" Godou asked. Danny looked toward Yuki, but she shrugged. He sighed, and looked at Charlotte.
"Are you sure you need the Gorgonian?" Danny asked.
"I don't need it, but having it would help me pinpoint the god that's going to be responsible for it."
"And without it?"
"The number could be as many as a few hundred." Charlotte said. Danny sighed.
"That would be a hassle to sort out." Danny said. Godou sighed. "Well, there's no point in worrying about it." Danny said, walking away from the field. "Looks like we're going with option B."
"We're waiting?" Godou asked.
"Yes. We don't have a choice. The Gorgonian is gone, and without it, we can't determine what god is after Athena." A beeping went off, and Godou sighed.
"I'm going to be late." He said. Erica gave him a small smile, and Danny grinned.
"My dear Godou, you should know that with me, you will never be late. To a world of damnation." Danny said. A portal appeared a few feet in front of him. "Next stop, Godou's school." He said. Everyone stared at him like he was crazy, and he only smiled back.
Line Break
The portal closed behind Danny since he was the last one out. Godou looked around to see that he was in his school.
"Thanks." He said, running off. Erica ran off behind him, and Danny looked around. He could see Shizuka ad Jazz walking by. He smiled and walked off of the campus, Yuki and Charlotte following him.
"Are you okay Danny?" Charlotte asked. Danny turned to her as he was walking.
"Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?" Danny asked.
"You woke up suddenly last night." She said.
"It's not only that, but you've been acting strange ever since Typhon attacked." Yuki said.
"How?" Danny asked, not facing her.
"You seem like something is bothering you." Yuki said. "You know you can tell us anything right. We love you." She said. Charlotte nodded, and Danny stopped walking at an intersection.
"What's wrong Danny?" They both asked. Danny sighed, and put a hand in his hair, making it stand up. He turned and opened his eyes.
"I—." He was cut off when something rammed into him from his side, tackling him into the ground. He groaned and put his hands on the thing's shoulders, confirming that it was a person.
"Sorry." The person said, in a girlish voice.
"It's okay." Danny said. Pulling the girl off of him. He looked up and saw what he described as a gray haired fairy that Godou had introduced to him. He pushed her off of him, and pulled himself up. He held out a hand and pulled the girl to her feet.
"Thanks." She said.
"Don't mention it." Danny said. The girl nodded and ran off towards Godou's school. Danny watched, and saw Charlotte glaring at the girl. "Charlotte?" He asked. She turned to him, looking as if she didn't want to kill the girl that had ran by.
"Hm?" She asked.
"Liliana? Liliana?" Danny turned and saw Dani walking around, calling a name.
"Dani?" He said. The smaller girl pulled her hands from her mouth and looked at him.
"Hey cuz." She said. "Have you seen the gray haired girl from this morning?"
"Yeah, she just committed a hit and run on me." Danny said. Dani's mouth made an 'o' shape and she let her hands drop to her sides.
"Oh, okay." She said, disappearing. Danny had to rebalance himself when she reappeared on his shoulders. "Let's go. I want to show you something."
"Yeah, okay. Where to Captain?" Danny asked, humoring her.
"To the nearest shrine."
Dark: Done! Sorry about the one day lateness, my weekend was very busy for me and my family, so I sorta forgot about my responsibilities as author. Woops. Anyway, don't try to kill me.
