Yes! The second chapter. Read & Review Please!
Disclaimer- I do not own Oh! My Goddess or the character Urd, even though it would be so cool if I did, Kosuke Fujishima does. I do own the character's Falcon and Komodo.
My super short, grammatically incorrect, summary of the story so far- Falcon meets Urd. Urd flirts, boy gets embarrassed. Boy makes wish. Boy becomes a god. Young god goes to heaven. Weird voice calls him Cupid.
(Blah, blah, blah.) Indicates typing or my personal thoughts. Blah, blah, blah. Means thoughts of the characters.
Book of Flame
Second Chapter - Initiation
"WELCOME HE WHO WAS ONCE MORTAL! STEP FORWARD, GOD OF LOVE, CUPID!"
Falcon raised an eyebrow. "Cupid?" He looked over at Urd. She simply shrugged her shoulders in response to his questioning look. He decided to listen the weird voice and took a small step forward and was then enveloped in a brilliant shaft of light. Urd shield her eyes and when she uncovered them Falcon was gone.
Urd blinked. She then shrugged to herself, "Oh well, probably won't be seeing him again." and walked off.
*************
"Where?" Falcon looked around and suddenly found himself in a very strange place. (I'd describe it, but it's impossible for mortals to understand the complexity of the heavens without their brains exploding.) He was surrounded by light. It was all around him, like he was immersed in an ocean, an ocean of light.
A figure appeared before him. This figure emanated a brilliance that seemed brighter then the surroundings.
"Why haven't I gone blind yet?" Falcon muttered. The figure seemed to vibrate with laughter, this sent ripples through the ocean of light.
"HAHAHAHA! YOU'VE REALLY CHANGED HAVEN'T YOU?" Falcon gave the entity a confused look. "Uh...do I know you?"
"WELL I SUPPOSE YOU WOULDN'T, LET ME INTRODUCE..."
Falcon covered his ears "Could you not yell please?"
"BUT THIS IS HOW I ALWAYS SPEAK."
"Try whispering." the young god suggested.
"You mean like this?" The entity queried.
"Yeah that's perfect." the young god nodded his head and asked. "Who are you though?"
The bright creature snapped its fingers. As the light faded away Falcon saw a dark haired man draped in white robes appear. "I am Kami-sama your god."
Falcon crossed his arms and frowned, confused "Gods have gods?"
"Yes gods have A God; there's only one of me."
Falcon looked even more confused. "But if this is heaven there must be a hell, right? So isn't there a master demon or something that rules demons?"
Kami stared "You ask a lot of questions don't you?"
Falcon scratched the back of his head. "Yeah my parents always say I'm a little nosy."
"Ah then you're perfect to be Cupid!"
The boy looked him. "Oh yeah I've been meaning to ask you. Why do you keep calling me Cupid?"
"Because all gods and goddesses have a duty to help the earth. Your job will be to spread love, peace, and harmony to the world." Kami swept his arm in a dramatic gesture.
"No"the boy stated flatly.
Kami looked shocked "What do you mean no?"
"I don't want to do it." Falcon stated.
"B-but it's your duty!" Kami protested.
"Since when?" Falcon asked.
Kami looked like he was about to cry. "B-b-b-but the forms are already completed! If you don't take this job I'll have to do..." He shuddered. "...paperwork!"
**************
"Urd wait!"
Urd turn around to see a blond goddess robed in pink running towards her.
She sighed. "What do you want Venus?"
"Kami-sama requires your presence immediately!" Venus squealed.
"Why?"
The blond shrugged and cheerily said. "I dunno but he said it's urgent!"
Urd rubbed her temples. She was having a very bad day. She had used up too much of her energy in that last transfer and as a result was way more irritable than usual. Plus Venus' perkiness was getting on her nerves.
"Okay, okay I'll go see him." She turned and headed back to the palace of the almighty.
***********
(An hour after were I last left off.)
"PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASSSSEEE!" Kami pleaded.
"No! Stop that!" Falcon yelled at the lord of heaven who was now clinging to his shirt. "I don't want to be Cupid!"
He pried the weeping entity off of him.
"What can I make you do to accept this joooooob?!?!?!" Kami wailed.
"Okay, First, you can stop pleading. It's not very Almighty Creatory. Second, I don't want to do this and you can't make me.
Suddenly a very strange gleam appeared in the almighty's eye. "Ohohohoho but I can!"
Falcon took a step back as a vortex of multiple energies formed around the Creator.
"ULTIMATE SUMMONING SPELL!"
Suddenly multiple shapes started to appear and surround the boy. The boys eyes widened as he saw what they were.
***********
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
Urd looked up as she heard someone scream. Realizing it was the voice of the boy she met earlier, the goddess broke into a run, wondering what kind of trouble the new god had gotten himself into. As she went through the portal that was the entrance to Kami's palace she could hear the muffled shouts more clearly. She rounded the corner to the throne room. Urd paused for a moment but after she heard the yelp again she burst through the door... and saw Falcon being dog piled by hundreds of naked women. She sweatdropped.
Falcon, who was holding his nose which was bleeding with helpless abandon, (I don't know why the Japanese think arousal causes nosebleeds. I've never seen it happen.) suddenly noticed Urd.
"Oh thank god you're here Urd. You have to help!"
"Sure" she replied. "I could use a little bit of fun to relieve my tension." She then stripped of her clothes and jumped into the crowd that was molesting Falcon.
"What?! No! Help me! Don't help them!"
Urd smiled seductively at him "That's what I'm doing."
"This is what you find fun?!?!?!?!" Falcon screamed.
"Yes, the most fun in the world,"Urd replied.
Falcon closed his eyes and prayed that God would help him.
Meanwhile the aforementioned entity was standing a few feet away covering his eyes trying not to be a pervert, but ended up peeping through his fingers..
************
(Two hours after Falcon passed out from blood loss.)
The boy groaned and sat up.
"What the hell happened?" he said. He then opened his eyes and saw Urd lying on top of him with her face an inch away from his.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" the god yelled.
Urd was so shocked she fell off of him. "Ow! What did you do that for?!"
Falcons eyes darted back and forth. "Where are those women? Are they gone? Oh please let them be gone!"
"Calm down, the only woman here is me." Now fully clothed she leaned toward him and whispered. "Aren't I woman enough for you?" Her hand traced a path down his chest and was heading down farther when someone coughed.
"Ahem" Kami-sama made his presence known.
"Oh...uh...yeah...hi." Falcon mumbled with his face still red.
"It's good to see that you have accepted your fate."
"Uh.......what?" the young god said now confused.
Kami held up a freakishly long contract. At the bottom in red ink was Falcon's name.
"Uh... what is that?" the newly instituted god said looking confused.
"The contract that officially states that you are Cupid."
"HOW DID YOU GET MY NAME ON THAT!!!!!!!"
"I got you to sign it while you were weak from blood loss." Kami smirked.
"I'm going to beat the crap out of you." Falcon stated calmly. He then leaped at the creator of all things with the intention of smashing his face in. Suddenly he was halted in midair.
What is this? Is it some sort of psychic energy? he thought.
In actuality Urd was holding him back by the neck of his shirt.
"Wrong. No beating up the creator of all life." Urd scolded.
"Yes ma'am." Falcon sighed. Then he paused. "Hey wait a minute why do I have to listen to you." he shouted as he resumed struggling.
"Because.." The Creator interjected. "She's your new guardian."
"WHAT?!?!?!?" the pair cried in unison.
**********
A young boy walked up in front of the house that we now recognize as belonging to Falcon. The boy was dark skinned, but a little lighter than the goddess we all know and are hit on by. He had short, blackish-brown hair that ended in spikes. He was wearing a black leather motorcycle jacket; it was his favorite so he wore it everyday even though it was midsummer and hot as hell. (If you pardon the expression.) But the thing that really set him apart were his eyes they were gray, the color of stone.
"Hey Falcon!" he yelled at the house. "I got that manga you wanted. You know the one where the female character is nude 27 times and they all end up in a bathhouse for no reason."
Normally if Falcon was there he would have threatened to kick the boy's ass for yelling so loud that the whole neighborhood could hear him. But being as he wasn't there the boy shrugged and entered the house through the backdoor. Normally this would be considered breaking and entering, but it was cool this time because they were such good buddies, or so the boy reasoned.
"Hellooooooooo! Anyone home?" the boy called.
He walked up the stairs and peeked into Falcon's room just in case he was sleeping. Seeing no one there, the boy shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave. As he began to walk down the stairs he heard an audible thump from the direction of Falcon's room. He ran back to the room and saw............... Falcon on the floor while laying on top of a woman.
"Dammit Urd! Couldn't you have gotten us here a better wa........" Falcon's sentence stopped as he saw the figure in the doorway.
After gaping for a full minute the mortal asked "What are you doing, Falcon?"
Falcon stared at him "What are you talking about Komodo?"
The boy in the doorway looked down at Falcon's hands. The god followed his gaze and finally realized that his hand placed on Urd's breast.
"Oh my... gently dear" Urd purred. ("Cue the nosebleed!")
Splurt! ("Yes! Now fall backwards... onto the hardwood floor.") Crack! ("Success!" Masked does victory dance.)
Before Falcon could recover his wits, Komodo leapt upon him. He then grabbed him by the shirt and began to shake him mercilessly.
"Why...?!"
Shake!
"...Didn't...?!"
Toss!
"...You tell...?!?"
Fling!
"...Me about...?!"
Throw!
"...Your secret...?!"
Hurl at wall!
"...Girlfriend?!"
Falcon punched Komodo in the face.
"What the hell are you talking about!?!?!?!"
Komodo recovered instantly. He leapt up and onto his feet.
He grinned and patted Falcon on the shoulder. "Don't get me wrong. I'm happy you finally got laid. You've been a virgin for so long."
Falcon went red "Wait a minute I didn't do anything and....WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! YOU"RE A VIRGIN TOO!"
Komodo, oblivious to Falcon, looked over at Urd and got his first good look at her.
"OH MY GOD! YOU WERE WITH AN OLDER WOMAN?!" He turned to his friend.
"Listen to me! I'm telling you it's not like that!" Falcon protested to no avail.
Much to the god's surprise, Komodo began to cry. "I'm just.....s-s-so proud of you."
He placed his hand on Falcon's shoulder, "You have truly become a man. I always thought you would end up with some ugly chick but..."
Komodo stopped as he saw Falcon staring in fear at something over his shoulder. He turned and his face was met with Urd's fist.
"I.... am not...old..... or ugly."
Urd was in Evil-looking, Vengeful, Attractive, Goddess Of Death mode. (EVAGOD for short.)
Falcon held the now unconscious Komodo as a shield in front of himself.
He began to shake Komodo shouting, "Wake up and apologize dammit or she'll kill us all!"
Urd closed in on them both, cracking her knuckles and with a sickeningly evil look in her eye.
You could hear the screams from two blocks away.
**********
Komodo woke up and yawned. He looked over at his friend .
"Hey, why are you on the floor?" he asked Falcon.
The young god's eyes were rolled back in his head and he was foaming at the mouth and right beside him Urd was asleep with her arm moving occasionally to sleep-hit him.
Komodo brought his hands to the sides of his face in horror. "OH MY GOD! YOU TWO WERE COPULATING RIGHT NEXT ME WHILE I"LL WAS ASLEEP!"(Copulating = sex)
He stop screaming and looked thoughtful for a moment. He then grinned to himself and said. "That's dirty."
Falcon now awake from Komodo's screaming looked at him in confusion. His eyes widened; he recognized that grin.
"What did she do?" He asked Komodo, now looking panicked.
Komodo looked at him still grinning. "I don't know what you're talking about."
Falcon pointed a finger accusingly at the boy. "I know that grin. It's the 'something dirty just happened' grin."
Komodo, of course not knowing anything of the events after being unconscious but wanting to say something anyway, explained in lavish detail what had happened even though none of it really happened. Falcon's eyes grew wider and wider as he heard all of Komodo's bullshit.
"On the desk?"
Komodo nodded.
"The floor?"
Nod.
"The stairs?"
"Yup."
"The kitchen?"
"Yeah."
"The bathroom, standing on one foot, while upside-down, while drinking a soda, while watching TV, with no hands, and singing the soundtrack to Lizzie Mcguire movie?"
A pause... and then a nod.
"Wow. I don't even remember anything like that. I just remember getting hit a lot."
"That's because she's into that pain is pleasure thing." Komodo stated sagely.
(If Falcon seems really gullible, than you have to remember that he's been wacked in the head one too many times.)
Falcon looked up at his friend, "What am I gonna do?!?! I'm to young to be sleeping with hot women!"
Komodo looked at him. "So you'd rather do it with ugly women?"
"No! Shut up! I just mean saving yourself.... marriage and all that...." the god trailed off.
The boy looked at his friend for a minute, "BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh man! You are so old fashioned. I mean are you gonna arrange a suitor for your sister or something, you throwback from the nineteenth century? Hahahahahaha!"
Falcon smacked his fist into his palm as if remembering something, "Oh yeah that's right. I have to pick up my sister."
Komodo looked at him, "Why? Doesn't she have a license. I mean you're both sixteen."
"She failed her driver's test." Falcon said simply.
"Ah. To the girls slumber party then!"
"You're coming too? Why?" Falcon asked.
"Girls in pajamas. Need you ask?"
"I guess not. Pervert." Falcon said sounding angry but smiling.
They both walked out of the house forgetting that Urd was still on the floor, sleeping.
