Skuld's Confession
An Oh My Goddess Fan Fic
By Anime Onie
----------------------)(-----------------------
"Um...Sentaro...I...I want to tell you some thing..." Looking shyly at the ground, Skuld clasps her hands together. Looking at Skuld eagerly, Sentaro nods. "Sure, what is it?"
Bringing her hands to her chest in a prayer like manner, Skuld takes a breath. "Well, Sentaro...Um... I..."
"I found you!" Jumping away, Skuld spins around looking for the intruder. Floating down from a tree branch, Mara smirks. "Skuld! You know what I want, Now pay up!" Shaking her head, Skuld prepares her body for Scarlet's arrival, but quickly remembers Sentaro. Acting innocent, Skuld smiles slyly. 'What are you talking about!" Looking between the two, Sentaro raises an eyebrow. "Skuld...? Is this a friend of yours?" torn between confessing to Sentaro, and running away from Mara, Skuld starts getting mad. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" Laughing, Mara sits mid air. "Skuld. you won't give me your angel, I'll take it from you" Extending her hands, Mara starts chanting some words. Rushing over to Sentaro, Skuld grab's his hand and starts pulling him along. "Sentaro, let's go!" Nodding and confused, Sentaro allows her to drag him along. Smirking, Mara laughs. "You can't escape me. I'll get what I want!"
----------------------)(-----------------------
Jumping from appliance to appliance, Urd searches effortlessly for her younger sister. "Skuld. You're not alone. You have Belldandy to care for you. and I'm ..." Continuing her search, Urd smiles faintly. "...I'm always here to watch out for you"
----------------------)(-----------------------
Looking out nervously from their hiding spot in a cluster of trees, Skuld sighs and slumps to the ground. Looking at Skuld confused, Sentaro takes a breath. "S...Skuld...What is that you wanted to tell me?" Putting her hands in her lap, Skuld breathes out deeply. "Sentaro...I..." Standing up, Skuld takes Sentaro's hands shyly and holds them up. "I'm a...I'm a goddess..." Smiling faintly, Sentaro laughs nervously. "Um, okay..." Skuld lets go of Sentaro's hands and holds her own to her chest. "You don't believe me?" Closing her eyes, Skuld whispers her words. "Noble Scarlet, come forth..." Emerging from her mistress in a spiral of ribbons, Scarlet spins around. Dropping his jaw in disbelief, Sentaro slides to the ground. "S...Skuld..." Looking down at Sentaro, Skuld smiles worriedly. "Sentaro...This is my angel...Noble Scarlet..." Peering over Skuld's shoulder, Scarlet quietly analysis Sentaro. Floating in close to him, Scarlet smiles childishly. "..." Looking at Skuld, Scarlet beams. Skuld nods. "Scarlet likes you" she informs Sentaro, extending her hand to help him up.
Taking the offer, Sentaro is hoisted to his feet. "Skuld..." Scratching his head nervously, Sentaro looks between Scarlet and Skuld. "Uh...Well...Uh..." he stammers, trying to take all the information in. Skuld looks down sadly. "You don't like me any more..." Sentaro looks at Skuld shocked. "No!" Coughing, Sentaro quickly composes himself. "No, Skuld I don't hate you...it's just..." Skuld looks up slightly. Sentaro blushes a little. "It's just it's weird...You're... you're a goddess..." Pushing his hands into his pockets, Sentaro sighs. "So...Um, Why are you here? on earth..." Looking at Sentaro Sternly, Skuld glances away. "It's a long story" Smiling widely, Scarlet peers out from behind Skuld. "She's kinda cute" Looking at Sentaro, Skuld smiles. "She's my best friend..." Sentaro looks away. Seeing this, Skuld gasps quietly. "You're my friend too..." She whispers quietly. Sentaro nods, and looks at Scarlet. "Skuld's lucky to have such a good friend like you..." Sentaro informs Scarlet, blushing at the fact that he's talking to an angel. Scarlet nods enthusiastically. Skuld looks down at her hands.
Sentaro smiles shyly. "Well, Skuld, I have a long time to listen..." Glancing at Sentaro, Skuld nods and beams.
----------------------)(-----------------------
Meeting up with Belldandy, Urd looks at her expectantly. "Did you find her?" Belldandy shakes her head. "But I haven't seen anything destroyed, maybe her escaping has given her time to calm down" Urd ponders this. "But where would she escape too? It would have to be somewhere she finds safe...some where she feels comforting..." Urd looks to Belldandy for help. Belldandy looks to the sky. "Safe...Comforting..." Belldandy shakes her head. "Well, she's not in her room at home..." Belldandy drops her head. "Oh Urd... I hope she's all right" Pacing a few steps, Urd thinks back to her encounters earlier in the day. "Where does Skuld usually go when she's mad? who can she go see..." Looking at each other with the same realization, Urd and Belldandy nod.
----------------------)(-----------------------
Peeking out from the cluster of trees, Sentaro makes sure the coast is clear. "Skuld, it looks clear..." Nodding, Skuld looks at Scarlet. "..." Nodding, Skuld smiles as Scarlet is engulfed in ribbons. Sentaro breathes in amazement. "Wow..." Smiling, Skuld steps out of the shadow of the trees and turns to Sentaro. "I've gotta go get my bike..." Skuld nods. "I'm sorry I dragged you into this..." Sentaro shakes his head feverently. "No, it's alright. I'm glad you told me... I'd hate to not know what happened to you if you had to go back to heaven all of a sudden..." Sentaro trails off blushing. Smirking, Mara lets out a laugh. "Skuld!" Looking up, Skuld spots Mara and glares at her. "You again!" Mara smirks. "So, you told your little friend everything, huh? Maybe I should take HIM as my payment! Or maybe Belldandy or Urd..." Feeling her rage rise, Skuld clenches her fists. Closing her eyes, She focuses her energy.

It's black. A small crystal like a droplet appears, fueled by it's own shining light
Passing behind the crystal, an image of Belldandy fades in and out. Belldandy smiles and starts whispering. "...Skuld!... "
The crystal grows spikes, doubling its size and forming a flower shape
Belldandy fades and is replaced by Urd. "...oooh, Is little Skuld gonna held bad ol' Keiichi?..."
Extending its glow, the crystal is now the size of a bloomed flower.
Keiichi steps up and smiles faintly. "...Happiness in life depends on how many times you get to say thank you from the bottom of your heart..."
Turning, Keiichi becomes Sentaro. "...It's a souvenir from that trip I took..."
Piercing the darkness with its brilliant glow, the crystal flower shatters into millions of tiny shards
----------------------)(-----------------------
"NOBLE SCARLET COME FORTH TO MY AID!!!" Emerging in a flurry of feathers and ribbons, Noble Scarlet Raises her hands, then brings them down slowly and crosses them. Gasping, Mara stands mid air. "B...but how? I thought Noble Scarlet could only be this powerful with aided magic..." Looking at Scarlet, Skuld can see she's Life sized. Turning her focus back to Mara, Skuld laughs intimidly. "Scarlet's power comes from my own inner strength, and the love I have to protect my friends...!" Awestruck, Sentaro blushes pink and steps back. Spinning around, Skuld checks up on him. "Sentaro, are you okay?" he nods and smiles.
Jumping up mid air, Skuld joins her powers with her angels and lunges at Mara. attacking with all her strength, Skuld starts to gain the upper hand.
"You gave me powers in exchange for my angel? well take this all back!" Being blasted by numerous energy bombs, Mara touches the ground and collapses. gasping for breath, Mara glares at the ground.
I wonder if this is the way Hild wanted it...
"Ho ho ho, oh Mara!" Snapping her head upwards, Mara comes face to face with Urd. "U...Urd!" Jumping up and backwards at the same time, Mara composes herself. "Urd! glad to see you again!" Flicking her hair over her shoulder, Urd tilts her head and stares down at Mara. Emerging from Urd, World of Elegance leans over slightly, ready for anything. Turning to Skuld, Urd beams. "Skuld..." Nodding Skuld smiles back. "Urd..." Floating in behind Sentaro, Belldandy glances at him then turns her focus to Mara. glancing at each of the three goddesses, Mara growls.
Raising her hands above her head, Urd calls Mara's attention to her. "Double Team attack!" waiting for Elegance to join, Urd smirks. "URD LIGHTING BOLT STRIKE!!!" at the same time, Elegance fires a tunnel of fire. Being blasted, Mara doubles over in pain. Swinging her hands backwards, Skuld thrusts them forwards and releases a barrage of bombs. landing underneath Mara they explode, sending her flying upwards. Watching all the commotion, Sentaro breathes in, awe struck. "Whoa...this is so cool..." Smiling at Sentaro, Belldandy taps his shoulder. Looking at Belldandy, Sentaro smiles faintly. leaning over, Belldandy comes close to his face. "Skuld, did she tell you...?" Sentaro nods, then points to Urd and Skuld fighting with Mara. "You should go and help them, they need you..." Belldandy smiles warmly and nods.
As she flies towards Urd and Skuld, Belldandy calls her angel. "Holy Bell, Aid me in this troublesome fight!" hair flowing softly, Bell smiles. joining her hands above her head, bell brings them forwards and forms a shield against Mara's attacks. "Belldandy? you want to fight too?" Mara smirks. forming energy bombs in each hand, Mara fires them off one hand at a time. Protecting her sisters, Belldandy holds the shield at maximum power. retaliating Mara's attacks with her own, Urd simultaneously fires of lighting strikes. Watching intently, Sentaro keeps his eye on Skuld. "GO SKULD!" hearing Sentaro's encouragement, Skuld closes her eyes. raising her hand as if to slap someone, Skuld opens her eyes. "BAAAA-KAAAA!!!!!!!!!" swinging her hand, Skuld watches as Mara gets hit and knocked backwards from the energy blast.
composing herself, Mara glares at Skuld. "what was that...???" Hearing Urd laughing, Mara glares at her. doubling over, Urd laughs hysterically. Joining in, Belldandy chuckles quietly. Glaring at the goddesses, Mara clenches her fists in frustration. Seeing what's so funny, Sentaro chuckles. Seeing a mere mortal laughing at her, Mara gets even more enraged. Laughing, Skuld throws a mirror towards Mara. Catching it, Mara turns her back to the goddesses and looks in to the mirror. letting out a cry as if wounded, Mara drops the mirror. having 'Baka' plastered all over her face, Mara forms a large energy bomb in her hand and prepares to fire it. Turning her head slightly, Mara analyses her targets. Still laughing, Urd Belldandy and Skuld don't notice Mara preparing to attack. Raising the bomb, Mara swings around, ready to let loose and attack them.
Mara... That's enough, you can come back.
Widening her eyes, Mara drops her head. "Yes" she whispers. Glaring at the goddesses, Mara sneers. "Don't think that this is over, Skuld. I'll be back one day..." floating up above them, Mara looks down on them scornfully. "Till then..." reaching a high point, Mara suddenly drops towards the earth. falling gently into a black porthole, Mara laughs evilly. "I'll get what I want!"
Staring at the ground where Mara disappeared, Urd sighs. Looking at Belldandy, She nods. "she's gone" Allowing Elegance to return, she steps up to Skuld. Belldandy and Bell become one again, and rushes over to Skuld to inspect the damages. Pulling away, Skuld sniffs. "I'm fine! I'm fine!" Smiling, Belldandy drops to her knees and hugs Skuld tightly. "Oh, Skuld, I'm so glad you came to your senses" Glancing at Sentaro, Skuld beams. "It was all the feelings I have for everyone which helped me"
Standing up, Belldandy turns to Sentaro and motions for him to come over. Blushing, he does so. Standing nervously between Urd and Belldandy, he grins at Skuld. Bending over, Urd drapes an arm over Sentaro's shoulder and rubs her cheek against his. "Sentaro, dear" Glaring at Urd, Skuld clenches her fist.
"U...Urd! get away from him!" feeling Skuld's temper rise, Sentaro tries to worm away from Urd. Whispering to Sentaro, Sentaro nods bashfully. "I...I'm still a little awed..." he whispers quietly. Shaking her hair away, Urd smirks at Skuld as she picks up Sentaro's hand and starts walking off with him. "Skuld, gotta catch me if you want Sentaro!!!" running off, Urd laughs. Growling, Skuld jumps up and follows them. "URD!!! I'M WARNING YOU!!!" Laughing, Urd taunts her sister more. Watching Urd and Skuld fight over Sentaro, Belldandy beams.
"Skuld...I'm so glad you found some one to help you grow..."
Stepping off smartly, Belldandy follows her sisters. Catching up with Urd, Skuld proceeds to stamp 'Kaiju', 'Baka' and 'fool' all over her. "Urd! take this!" Stepping out of the way, Sentaro chuckles at the pair. Turning to Belldandy, Sentaro grins. "Uh, will you tell Skuld I said bye?" Nodding, Belldandy waves. "Bye, Sentaro...Don't stay away too long!" returning her wave, Sentaro runs off to pick up his bike. Turning back to Urd and Skuld fighting, Belldandy sighs. "Skuld? Urd? Please stop this..." Laughing, Urd escapes Skuld's attacks and pelts off towards their house. "Can't catch me!!!" Running off, Skuld cries out. "Yes I can!" . Whispering a small blessing, Belldandy smiles.
"Skuld, Now that you're growing, your powers and feelings will aid you in time's of need. keep those feelings deep in your heart and never forget them"
Starting to run, Belldandy hurries to catch up to Urd and Skuld to stop their argument.

Author's note---) Ok, Second chapter done and finished.
Firstly, Hild--) I've done a little research, and Hild is Urd's mom, and In charge of the demon world in the Manga? tell me if I'm wrong. In reference to Mara's thought about Hild, I was kinda thinking, she's Urd MOM, maybe not Skuld's, but still, in threatening Skuld, Urd defend, and threatening to hurt Urd, Belldandy and Sentaro would give Skuld her own power...make sense? eh......~_~ don't worry if it doesn't
---)Quotes in Skuld's thoughts are varied and taken parts of the Manga
---)Thirdly, I'll accept that I might get it wrong sometimes, if so, don't just tell me it's wrong, tell me how it's wrong, so I can fix it!
---) I NEED HELP!!! if anyone wants to be nice enough to tell me Mara's main attack, I'll be grateful!!! Till then Mara's attack will be energy bombs.
JA NE MINASAN!!!
