Welcome to the second chapter of the Five Goddesses. Sorry about keeping
you waiting so long before I updated. I've had problems with my computer.
Well, on to the chapter!

The radio turned on and I used magic to turn it off. School started in one hour. I stretched, got out off bed, and put on the school's required uniform. Sounds came from the kitchen as I moved towards it. Syaoran was getting his breakfast.
"Morning!" I said cheerfully and he jumped a foot in the air.
"Um. Yeah. Morning," he responded, blushing slightly. I grinned and poured myself a glass of milk. Syaoran was still jumpy when he sat down to eat.
I moved about the kitchen easily, surprised at the amount of cooking utensils and food that needed to be cooked. I finished making my lunch just as Syaoran finished his breakfast.
"Do you want me to make you a lunch?" I asked, looking in the pantry for a paper bag.
"No. But thanks for offering," he responded, reaching past me for a paper bag also. Our hands brushed and I blushed a deep scarlet. He also had a shade of red on his face. I quickly turned my attention to packing my lunch.
What's wrong with me? Goddesses aren't supposed to fall in love with mortals. Is Beanstalk right? Am I going mortal? And what did he mean about the Clow cards not being their main concern? Are they looking for the God of Asia?! I frowned slightly, trying to remember the legend as I put my lunch in my bag.
"Um. Kimmay? We better go to school now," Syaoran said, standing by the door. I shouldered my bag and picked up a binder that had my stories in it. Luckily they were in code that only the goddesses could read. I walked out the door, lost in my thoughts of the legend. He followed silently and we walked to school, not saying anything or looking at each other.
"Kimmay!" The other goddesses ran over, followed by Sakura, Eriol, Tomoyo, and MeiLing. I grinned and they all (the goddesses that is) gave me hugs.
"Thank God you're okay," Flamingo said, smiling at me.
"Beanstalk wouldn't have hurt me anyway," I responded as we walked into the building. Megaleg pulled out her schedule.
"I have Chemistry first. What about you guys?" she asked, looking at us.
"Chemistry. Jinx!" we said at the same time.
"Jinx again! Hee! Hee! Hee!" Flamingo shouted and we glared at her.
"What just happened?" Sakura asked, looking confused.
"I jinxed them. They can't talk until someone says their name.oh.fifty times," she responded and AF opened her mouth to protest.
"It's only one. Flamingo was just kidding about the fifty part," Megaleg said.
"This might be good. I won't have to listen to Jade the Insane all day," Eriol muttered, grinning.
"Thanks!" JadeWing said and Eriol's face paled.
"But." he started.
"'Jade the Insane' is one of my many names, isn't that right Zim?" she responded, winking at AF.
"Yep. Just like Zim is mine, Kitsu is Kimmay's," she agreed, winking at me.
"Finally. But since it took so long, I won't let you read my stories besides AF," I said, waving my binder in front of their faces. "And I'll change the code so that you have to wait for me to post it.
"Kimmay! They aren't supposed to know!" JadeWing wailed and I covered my mouth.
"You blew it again. Next thing you know, you'll be telling them that the website is www.fanfiction.net," AF said, shaking her head.
"AF! You just told them the website!" Megaleg argued, crossing her arms.
"Damn. I did blow it. Flamingo?" AF said, looking at Flamingo expectantly.
"Full fledged of just the website?" she asked, stretching.
"Website," I said, "But do a full fledged on the Devil."
"Can do," she responded and there was a flash of light.
We walked to the physics room and sat at a lab table. Four people; one guy, three girls; walked over and started talking with Sakura, Tomoyo, Eriol, Syaoran, and MeiLing.
"I have something very important to tell you. I can't say it now but during lunch, we'll go somewhere and talk," I muttered and the goddesses nodded.
"Could you give us a hint?" JadeWing asked.
"The legend," I responded, a sinking feeling in my stomach. Before we could talk about anything else, Sakura walked over, followed by the people that I had noticed earlier.
"Hey Kimmay, JadeWing, AF, Flamingo, and Megaleg. These are my friends Chiharu, Rika, Naoka, and Yamazaki," Sakura introduced, indicating each person.
Chiharu had braids. Naoka had glasses. Rika had dark hair that curled under at her shoulders. Yamazaki was the only guy and seemed innocent enough.
"Did you know that pinto in Portuguese means." Yamazaki stated.
POW!! "We did not need to know that," Chiharu said, putting the hammer back in her bag. As I said, he seemed innocent.
"Where are you from?" Rika asked.
"Portland," AF said.
"What? Where's that?" Chiharu asked, confused.
"The United States," Flamingo responded.
We looked at each other, not sure of what to say. It was uncomfortable.
"What kind of stories do you like?" Megaleg asked, breaking the silence.
"I like fiction but mainly legends. My favorite legend is about the five goddesses of the compass points," Naoka said, looking very happy.
JadeWing muttered something that I didn't catch. I exchanged glances with the other goddesses. They were shocked also. This was something that came as a shock. I mean, we never knew that there were books about us. (AN: I have writer's block right now!!!! Hm.should I post it now or wait for my writer's block to go away?)
"Could.Could I borrow the book?" I inquired, a sinking feeling in my stomach.
"Certainly. Let me get it for you!" Naoka ran to her backpack and rummaged in it for a few moments before pulling out a book with a picture of a compass on the front.
While she was getting it, JadeWing and AF talked quietly to each other. "Kimmay? Maybe this book isn't completely true about the whole thing. You never know. It could just be a fictional story about us," Megaleg whispered, leaning close enough so that no one else could hear.
"I dunno. It could be completely true or completely false. You remember the actual legend. The God of Asia could be anyone and we might not know it. We need to find him before he kills me," I whispered back, swallowing my fear.
"Here it is!" Naoka handed me the book and started talking with Syaoran, Sakura, and everybody else.
I slowly opened the book, my fingers automatically tracing the compass on the front. Each of the points was pressed into the leather, their lines familiar under my fingers. Inside, there was a drawing of what the goddesses looked like, and I was surprised at how close they were. Looking at the author's name, I realized that the author was the very same person who had introduced us to the ways of goddesses.
"Megaleg. Look at this!" I commented, pointing to the author's name.
"Is that.?" she asked, her eyes going wide at the recognition of the name.
"The very same person. This is way to close. And look at the picture too. It's obvious that she knew what we looked like and who we were when she wrote this."
"Oh kuso." Megaleg's response made me look to where she was pointing. The copyright date was 1976, which was about ten years before we were even born. That was freaky enough to tell me that this was no falsehood that many people believed.
"What's going on? Your face is white," Eriol commented and I looked up at him, glaring slightly. "Nice try. My little descendant has already tried and it doesn't work."
"Do you have any idea of how.famous we are?! This entire book relates the complete legend of us. If anyone can get a hold of something like this, what is to keep our enemies from getting a hold of this and finding out all our weaknesses?!" I hissed, glaring even more, enough to kill a small mammal. The devil was getting off easy, for now.
"So.if these 'Gods of the World' get a hold of this book, you're royally screwed?" I jumped slightly at Tomoyo's voice, my heart beating rapidly. Megaleg had her hand to her chest, breathing heavily. "Sorry."
"Pretty much. One glance pretty much tells our weakness as a group. We tend to care about each other and sometimes fight over simple things," Flamingo commented, jumping into the conversation. As if I hadn't had enough surprises already today.
"Class! Take your seats!" The teacher walked into the room, carrying a briefcase. He set it down on his desk and opened it. Inside were papers and other typical teacher stuff. I sighed inwardly, wondering how boring this class was going to be. Without realizing it, I left the book on the desk next to me, which happened to be the empty desk between Syaoran and me. (AN: Why do I get stuck to Mr. I-have-an-attitude-problem? Probably for reasons that no one else knows about! YAY!)
~~ Syaoran ~~
I sat down in my chair, sighing slightly. Sakura sat on my left and there was an empty desk on my right, but Kimmay sat next to the empty desk. Letting my eyes wander, I noticed that she had left Naoka's book on the empty desk, opened to some random page. I picked up the book and looked at the cover. It seemed ordinary enough with the simple compass design and gold-leaf writing.
The page that it had been opened to had a picture of a single person on one side and some writing on the other. Curious, I looked at the picture, wondering what it was about. A small caption at the bottom labeled it as the "Final Fight Between The High Devine Beings". Upon closer examination, I realized that they kind of looked like.well, Kimmay and myself. I turned to look at the text, wondering if it would help me determine what was going on.
'The Gods of the World number five, equal to the Goddesses of the Compass Points, though they aren't nearly as strong as the Goddesses. There are only two, one from the Gods and one from the Goddesses, who can kill each other and not be killed by the lower divine beings. They are the God of Asia and the Goddess of the North. Once the Gods of the World find the God of Asia, they will be strong enough to eliminate all the Goddesses. The God of Asia and the Goddess of the North will kill all the people.'
Quickly I shut the book, not wanting to read on. Glancing around, I slid the book back to where it had been, leaving it closed. The text was too detailed and too dangerous. If that was true, then we would possibly be killed!
Today would be a long day with that weighing on my shoulders. Trying to forget what I had just read, I started paying attention to what the teacher was starting to say.
Well, that's it for now. I'll try and do better at updating next time. See ya!
