Chapter 2 is finally up, when Peorth's intended question accidently backfires, Keiichi and the gang learns of what would things be like if a particular Alien Teacher and her husband came into the scene...Oh My GoddessOnegai Teacher crossover.
Okay everybody ready? Here's part 1 and the first of the random what if tales.
I do not own Oh My Goddess and this little movie idea I borrowed for this story I also do not own.
Urd: Here's something I always wanted to know, what would happen.........
Everybody waited in anticipation for Urd's question
Urd: If Keiichi were an angst ridden hero!!!!!
Keiichi and Skuld fall face first
Skuld: WHAT??!!! What type of question is that??!!!!!
Urd: hey my turn, my question, and I want to know what it would have been like if Keiichi fought the forces of evil
Keiichi: um can that machine really answer a question like that?
Skuld: theoretically it should but I invented Mr A so it can answer mind- bending questions of what our futures could be like!!!! Not ask dumb questions involving the dumb mortal, eeer no offence Keiichi
Keiichi: none taken
Skuld: anyway take that dumb question back Urd!!!!!
Urd: no
Skuld: ggrrr guys!!!!
Belldandy: well it is what Urd wants to see
Peorth: Keiichi a super hero? Tres fantastique, I must see this
Peorth takes a seat next to Urd in front of the TV screen
Skuld: Keiichi!!! Help me out here!!! Please tell Urd about the whole idiocy of her question
Keiichi: well I never could see myself as a hero so why not?
Skuld: sigh, okay on with the show
Question 1: What If Keiichi was an angst superhero?
Life's a bunch of roses isn't it? I mean we wake up everyday, live our lives and than go to sleep wondering what tomorrow might bring. They say that just as long as you live the lives that God has laid out for you than everything will be perfect, right? Well let me tell you something, those types of people? They could not be anymore wrong.
Midnight, Japan. The streets are all quiet except for the rapid tapping sounds of footsteps running.
Figure#1: puff puff, how can this be???!!!! One mortal, how can one mortal be this strong??!!!
Figure#2: Shut up, this is no ordinary mortal. He was specially trained just to eliminate our kind
Figure#1: Than is there any hope for us?
Figure#2: pray that we manage to evade him this night
???: Your prayers have been denied
Figure#1: oh no I-it's him!!!!
Life is so sweet to those who don't know the truth. They get to live in ignorant bliss with their day to day lives and never having to worry about the dark secret that the shadows hide. You know the things that go bump in the night? The monsters that prey on the innocent? The stories that mothers tell their children to frighten them? They're very real, every one of them.
???: You have preyed on the innocent for far too long, the time for redemption has arrived
Figure#2: this isn't happening!!!! This can't be real
Of course you're probably asking if they're real than what's not stopping them from overtaking the world and consuming the entire world in darkness. That's where we come in. We were trained as children to execute only one task against this evil, our task is to hunt the hunters and show absolutely no mercy to those we hunt.
Figure#1: gggrr I don't care if you're a mortal!!!! I say we can take him!!!!
Figure#2: STOP!!!! Do you want to get killed?????!!!!!!
The first figure charges at the mysterious stranger, without any effort at all he somersaulted over his head, drew his gun and aimed it at the back of the attacker's head.
Figure#1: ulp
???: Now die
Without any hesitation, the stranger pulled the trigger and blew the figure's brains out. The lifeless body slumped to the ground dead. The Stranger whirled around to face the other figure that by now was shaking in fear.
Figure#2: p-please I didn't mean to drink the blood of those people!!!! I just wanted to live. Please I feel bad about the lives I took I want to have peace and be forgiven
???: If you're truly sorry than God will forgive you.........
The 2nd Figure sighed in relief until the stranger raised his gun at his head
???: in Heaven
Again without hesitation the shot went off and buried a bullet into the figure's forehead. He too fell dead.
???: Mission accomplish
The Stranger began to walk off.
???: If you truly are sorry, than I am too am sorry and I envy you. You get to take the easy way out but Keiichi Morisato has to take this path until the day he dies.
Killing, I can't remember the first time that I did it. As long as I can remember I have killed. Even though the souls I've taken were evil it is still sad to see a life die. However this sentiment is also dying and I wonder how long it will be before I become as inhuman as these monsters. I am part of a secret organization only known to a few as Heaven's Sect. It is our life's duty to kill every evil form of the supernatural that may dare rear its ugly head and then afterwards cover the incident up to avoid causing worldwide panic. Yeah yeah I know it is very pathetic covering things up as if they never happened but it is the only way. At least that is what I keep telling myself.
Keiichi: oh Lord, tonight I have done another one of your work, the evil has been vanquished for now. So please have mercy for I have sinned.........
On my way home, I again repeat the same prayers as a way of hoping that I'm doing the right thing. But day after day they seem to lose all meaning. I finger the gun in my hands, a custom P29 semi-automatic handgun. It's fast and reliable and when aimed right, one shot is all I need to finish off the target. So long I have considered firing the gun one last time, this time I would aim at my own head and pull the trigger and end it here and now. That would be so tempting but there's one reason why I haven't and probably never will.........
"Keiichi"
Her sweet voice rings up the darkness of my soul and I realize that I'm not totally inhuman if I can have these emotions.
"Keiichi, you're home"
I consider her my only redemption from the black hell I created for myself.
Keiichi: yes Belldandy, sorry I kept you waiting
Belldandy: it's alright, Chihiro does count on you to do a good job at work
Belldandy. Whenever I say her name my soul can feel a little peace, she definitely is the light to my darkness. So long I would have lost it all but she has helped me find my way.
Belldandy: I left you some dinner, would you like some?
Keiichi: yes please
Sadly she doesn't have a clue about my past or my real line of work. To her I'm just a simple college student named Keiichi Morisato. She came to me one day, wanting to grant my wish. I did not know what to say and I said the first thing that came to my heart, and kinda accidentally wished her to be with me forever. Our relationship grew and while there were many unexpected surprises from her friends and families we still are together. However I know better, God sent Belldandy to me knowing that I would so easily accept her into my life. In short she was used as a bribe to keep me as one of his "loyal" hunters and me being as selfish as I am, took it hook, line and sinker. I can never forgive myself for bringing an innocent goddess into all of this so I promised that I will always keep on fighting to protect Belldandy, this is the only way I can repay all the kindness that she has shown me.
Keiichi: Belldandy?
Belldandy: yes?
Keiichi: I love you
Belldandy: and I love you, what's wrong Keiichi? You say that as if it were our last moment together
Keiichi: (you don't know that half of it) The following morning and the hunt will begin yet again. Little did I realize just how personal this fight would be.
Urd: morning Keiichi
Keiichi: hey Urd, Skuld.........
Keiichi sat next down to the two goddesses as Belldandy served breakfast.
TV: .........last night, two more bodies had been discovered both gunned in the head. Experts say that due to the accuracy the shots were made into the head, that the assailant is presumed to be some type of professional serial killer. The police are advising residents to be on the lookout for any suspicious characters and if anyone may have any information that may lead into the arrest on this killer to report to the police right away, do not I repeat do not attempt to handle the murderer on your own, they are most likely armed and extremely dangerous, now moving on to Yuko for the weather.........
Keiichi:.........
Belldandy: it's tragic, isn't it?
Keiichi: yeah
Belldandy: I wish we could do something but sadly goddesses are not allowed to involve themselves with mortal justice, we can only pray that the police will bring justice
Keiichi: even if you found the killer would you be able to stop him?
Skuld: of course!!!! Belldandy can stop anyone!!!!
Keiichi:.........I see, I know it's against the rules but I hope you do find that low down dirty killer and give him what he deserves
Belldandy: Keiichi..........
Keiichi: sorry for sounding a bit moody but I'm just growing sick by all the killing there is in this world.
Keiichi leaves for his room as the goddesses wonder what is going on in Keiichi's head.
Keiichi: a serial killer? That's the best you can do? Your damn cover story is to make me a serial killer?
Keiichi spoke into his miniature communicator to his mysterious "employer" only know to a few as M, M sent him on every mission and was in charge of covering it up after it was done. Keiichi had never met M in his life and had forgotten how M became his employer but with all that was happening Keiichi learned to stop asking questions.
M: please forgive me Keiichi but it was the only convincing story that the press will bite, you shot them too accurately in the head for it to be considered a suicide
Keiichi: hmph, not my problem that I was trying to do the job right...........M it's bad enough that I had to kill those two teens, they didn't ask to be turned into half demons and to pray upon the innocent
M: I know it's tough Keiichi but you're the only one who can do this
Keiichi: so do you have any new jobs?
M: not at the moment but I'll keep in touch if anything comes up.
Keiichi: all right, Keiichi over and out.
Meanwhile back with the goddesses
Belldandy: you notice something? Is it just me.........or does it seem like Keiichi is..........more distant as of late
Skuld: yeah and the things he says is just creeping me out
Urd: and he seems more isolated and to himself as well
Peorth: not to mention that weird aura that he gives off
Belldandy: oh my Peorth, when did you come in?
Peorth: oh a few minutes ago, I just wanted to visit my favorite mortal, that cutie Keiichiy Weiichiy
Urd: your obsession with Keiichi is just sad!!!! Belldandy say something
Belldandy: how wonderful! I'm sure Keiichi would be happy to hear that you've come to visit him
Peorth: that's what I'm here for, so what do you think is eating Keiichi?
Skuld: all these strange behaviours, it's almost like Keiichi is this mysterious killer
Belldandy: NO!!!!
Everyone almost shook at the sound of Belldandy's outburst. It had a hint of a rare rising anger in it something Belldandy would almost never show. Quickly realizing what was happening she quickly apologized.
Belldandy: I'm sorry but Keiichi isn't the killer! He just can't be!!!! Keiichi is a kind and innocent soul that loves everyone and would never hurt anything.........and if he were I would know, he would tell me if anything bothered him, right?
Everyone grew silent, no one could respond to this, just than there was a knock at the temple's doors.
Belldandy: I'll get it
Belldandy opened the door to see the smug and arrogant face of Toshiyuki Aoshima.
Belldandy: oh hello, this is a surprise I didn't think you would come here
Aoshima: aw lovely Belldandy, was it because you missed me?
Belldandy: no, I'm asking because didn't Keiichi put a restraining order on you to stay 1000 feet away from me?
Aoshima: (gulp) eeerrr ha ha ha yeah that.........I must apologize for my rude actions that would force Morisato into that very understandable course of actions
As if on cue Keiichi appeared as well.
Keiichi: Aoshima, what the hell are you doing here?
Aoshima: aw Morisato, I came to you to hopefully come to a truce.
Keiichi: no
Aoshima: no? Just like that? You're not even going to hear me out?
Keiichi: if it were anyone else maybe, you are a definite no
Belldandy: Keiichi aren't you being a little too harsh? I mean I know he's a scumbag.........
Aoshima: (ouch, coming from Belldandy that's harsh)
Bellandy: but we shouldn't hold unnecessary hatred if there's a chance for forgiveness
Keiichi: you wouldn't understand, Bell.........you trust my judgement right?
Belldandy: yes I do
Keiichi: than let me talk to Aoshima, I'm sure we'll clear things up
Bellandy: alright I'll make some tea
Belldandy left and a dark almost evil demeanour replaced Keiichi's calm one.
Keiichi: what do you really want? If you can't give me a good enough explanation I'm afraid I'm going to have to call the police
Aoshima: oh I see, you have to do EVERYTHING in your power to keep Belldandy away from me even involve the police, do you really think they can protect her?
Keiichi: I didn't have that restraining order to protect her, I have it so I don't kill you for what you tried to do
Aoshima: easy Morisato, was it really that bad?
Keiichi: you tried to get her drunk to take advantage of her, so yes I'm going to say it was THAT bad, I refuse to let some as innocent as her to have anything to do with a dark, sinister and almost evil person like you
Aoshima: (yes that plan failed miserably, that girl can really hold her alcohol)
Aoshima painfully remembered that time a few months ago, at a Nekomi Tech party. It was your basic get the girl a little tipsy and lure her into a room alone and let the passions fly. It was a bit brutish and untactful, Aoshima admitted but he was growing desperate with his desire to finally say he had Belldandy. Needless to say it didn't work, after at least 10 bottles she was completely unfazed. The real problem started when Keiichi found out, Keiichi dragged him out back and for the next 15 minutes kicked the crap out of him.
Aoshima: (I never knew the shrimp could fight like that, well that would be the last time I will underestimate him, for my next plan is foolproof) that is harsh, but I was not in control of my actions then, I too was a bit drunk
Keiichi: funny you seemed sober to me when I was kicking your ass
Aoshima: gack, I mean.........look the reason why I'm here and clearly violating the restraining order is to invite you and Belldandy to one of my summer cottages with myself and Sayako, as a way of an apology, you two can spend the time alone and do whatever you like, all expenses paid of course.
Keiichi:.........
Aoshima: I don't expect you to answer now but we would most certainly enjoy your company
Keiichi: whatever
Aoshima: well I must be going now, here the directions are on this slip of paper
Forcefully taking his hand, Aoshima gave Keiichi the address, shook Keiichi's hand and left. However something felt just wrong.
Keiichi:.........(something seems very different about him)
Just then Belldandy returned.
Belldandy: I brought the tea, oh where did Aoshima go?
Keiichi: left
Belldandy: oh well, so what did he need?
Keiichi: wanted to invite us to some summer cottage
Belldandy: oh how wonderful
Keiichi: we're not going
Belldandy: oh why?
Keiichi: I don't trust him
Belldandy: Keiichi is it because you're worried about me? Keiichi, you do not need to worry, if he dares to try anything I can take care of myself
Keiichi: that's my girl, I know you can but I still don't trust him
Belldandy: I see
Keiichi: well I need to get some work done
Belldandy: Keiichi, I was hoping we could you know spend the day together.........we haven't done anything together in awhile
Keiichi: (I hate to hurt her.........but I need to get this done) sure maybe a bit later
Belldandy: that's great
Keiichi: well see ya Many hours later in Keiichi's room
M: your instincts have served you well once again, Keiichi.........there is indeed something wrong with this Aoshima characters, and the numerous scans are unstable
Keiichi: I knew it, when I shook his hands I felt it.........I know he's a slimeball but at that moment I felt something pure evil
M: he's radiating a dark energy 4 times stronger than that of normal humans
Keiichi: what does he want then?
M: more power no doubt
Keiichi: yes but I think he's also after something else or rather someone else
M: I see and you would like to do everything in your power to protect her wouldn't you?
Keiichi: just give the okay and I'll hunt him down
M: no it's too dangerous to charge in head first without knowing of his intentions. He's easily the most powerful foe you'll have to face
Keiichi: for Belldandy I'll take on the devil himself
M: I see, but Aoshima is not the one who's worrying me
Keiichi: what do you mean?
M: look if Aoshima can get dark powers almost overnight, don't you think there must be someone or something that's giving him them?
Keiichi: I see
M: Keiichi before we proceed on eliminating Aoshima, we must learn of the source of his power and hopefully destroy it permanently
Keiichi: understood
M: Keiichi this is what you must do, pretend to accept his invitation, follow him and observe him, learn what you can and if things get to hot, we'll give you the order to kill him
Keiichi: what?! Are you suggesting I bring Belldandy along with this too??!!
M: Keiichi he won't reveal his plan unless the Belldandy is present there as well. If you go alone he'll surely get suspicious, you must do this as stealthy as possible.
Keiichi: I will not sacrifice Belldandy just for the sake of duty!!!
M: Keiichi like it or not she will be pulled into all of this anyway.
Keiichi:.........
M: once again it's your call Keiichi, I can't force you to execute the plan but you must remember your job, you must remember the work you must do for God.........M over and out
The communicator went dead as Keiichi sat alone in his room unable to accept what he had to do for his "duty". Without regret he made his decision.
Keiichi: Belldandy
Belldandy: yes dear?
Keiichi: pack your bags, I think I've decided to accept Aoshima's invitation
And so it begins............well okay first road trip
Belldandy: take a left here Keiichi
Keiichi: right
Belldandy: isn't this exciting?
Keiichi: yeah exciting
Belldandy: it's just going to be you and me.........
Keiichi: so why Urd's here?
Urd: the TV broke, besides I'm not going to miss the opportunity to see you and Bell make some hot lovin'
Keiichi: okay, so why's Skuld here?
Skuld: If you think I'm going to let you get too close to Belldandy than you've got another thing coming Keiichi
Keiichi: fair enough, so why's Peorth here?
Peorth: I'm hoping that ze atmosphere magnifique will spark our flaming passion Keiichi
Keiichi: eerr normal for Peorth I suppose, so why's Tamiya here?
Tamiya: yoo're not gonna go to a secluded cottage by yooself and hog all da hunnies Morisato
Keiichi:.........do I even want to ask why Otaki is here?
Otaki: no
Keiichi: good, so why Chihiro's here?
Chihiro: hey I'm not loaning you my van and expecting nothing in return Keiichi, this vacation will do wonders for me
Keiichi: geez!!! The only people we're missing are Megumi and Sora!!!!!
Sora: did you say my name sir?
Megumi: yes big brother?
Keiichi: sigh
Keiichi had a feeling that his mission just got a whole lot complicated And finally they arrive
Skuld: wow this place is beautiful
This so-called cottage was more like a castle, with every convenience that a spoiled rich guy could ever want. It was also positioned next to a lake, which was surrounded by much forestry, of course Keiichi had no time to admire the view he had a job to do. Belldandy shivered a little.
Keiichi: what's wrong
Belldandy: I don't know, but for a brief second I sense a great evil.........I must be getting tired from the trip
Keiichi: well we're here
Keiichi rang the bell it sounded more like a bell from an old church tower. Sayako opened the door.
Sayako: hello everyone.........welcome to our humble abode, would you please follow me?
Chihiro: are you okay? You look like you've not been getting any sun lately.
Sayako: I am......fine, I just have been busy indoors lately
Keiichi: where did you get that?
Keiichi pointed to a small bandage on Sayako's neck
Sayako: this? Oh I cut myself there, don't worry it's a small scratch
Totally not convinced Keiichi held on to his cover by pretending to buy the excuse.
Sayako: now as I've said before would you please follow me?
Sayako lead them through the hallways and it was a good thing that she did, the place was almost like a perpetual maze. Along the walls lined many self portraits of Aoshima.
Peorth: a little self-absorbed, don't you agree?
Urd: a little? He makes Narcissus seem like a humble man
Sayako finally lead to the group to what appeared to be the dining hall.
Sayako: they are here, Toshi
Aoshima: excellent.........hhhhmmmm I wasn't expecting all of you
Keiichi: believe me, I wasn't either
Aoshima: no matter, I can accommodate you all. Now if you excuse me I have some business to attend to, Sayako will show you to your rooms, you are free to do what you want until tonight, we dine and well let's just say there will be a big surprise tonight
Saying that Aoshima left.
Chihiro: how rude, leaving us like this
Megumi: yeah, why did you bring us up here anyway Keiichi?
Keiichi: I didn't you all invited yourselves remember??!!!
Sayako: if you follow me
Sayako lead them up a huge flight of stairs until she reached a hallway with a series of doors.
Sayako: we only have 5 rooms you will need to bunk with someone else, until then my job is done, I shall come to invite you to dinner
With a polite bow Sayako turned and left.
Tamiya: um don'cha think there was sumthin different with Sayako?
Otaki: yeah like she was actually polite!!!
Keiichi: (it's true, she seemed almost drained, lacking energy.) so who will bunk with whom?
Belldandy: ummm Keiichi?
Keiichi: yes?
Belldandy: would you mind sharing a room with me? Only if you want to of course
Keiichi: w-w-what??!! I-I-I mean o-o-of course (I've never seen her this bold with our relationship before.........does she? NO!!! Concentrate on the mission you perv)
Belldandy nodded happily as the two chose one of the rooms.
Peorth: darn I wanted to bunk with Kei, oh well it's not everyday you see something as romantic as that.........
Tamiya: I can bunk wit yoo Miss Peorth
Peorth turned to see his obvious perverted smile.
Peorth: (gross!!! Now I know why I almost got turned off to men besides Keiichi of course) say Urd.........
Urd: sure why not?
Peorth: good
The two goddesses took another room
Tamiya: damn she's will neva likes me
Otaki: don't worry you still have me old buddy
And since no one else wanted to bunk with the two they ended up taking another room. In the end Megumi and Sora agreed to take another room while Skuld and Chihiro took the last one. A little while later.........
Room#1
Belldandy: there everything is unpacked Keiichi
Keiichi: good
Belldandy: I am sorry
Keiichi: huh? For what?
Belldandy: I kinda wanted to go by ourselves to but.........seeing how everyone would have been left behind I just had to bring them along
Keiichi: it's okay, this is your kindness for others, Belldandy you are the type of person who would put other's happiness above your own
Belldandy: much like you
Keiichi: no Bell, I'm not kind at all.........let me ask you, how much do you actually know about me? I'm going to take a walk
Keiichi left the room while Belldandy sadly watched on.
Belldandy: Keiichi, you're facing many trials, please do not think you're facing them alone
Room#2
Peorth: well tres magnfique!!!!
Urd: We should have been on trading spaces
The two goddesses had personally designed their rooms.
Peorth: sigh.........I wish Keiichi was here to see this
Urd: still pining over him? Girl you need to learn there are other guys
Peorth: I know but.........there's something about him that makes him more special than any other man
Urd: I know what you mean, Kei's 1 in a million, maybe a billion
Peorth: I know I'll never have him but I will continue to stand faithfully by his side........ until I find love of my own, I'm still going to flirt
Room#3
Eeerrrr do you REALLY want to know what Tamiya and Otaki are doing? I thought so.........
Room#4
Megumi: well that should be everything
Sora: eeerr thank you for coming Miss Morisato
Megumi: please I do prefer you call me Megumi
Sora: ok Megumi Morisato
Megumi: sigh.........so Sora why did you decide to come along?
Sora: um I just wanted to you know
Sora grew a very bright red
Megumi: oh I get it, you have a crush on Aoshima, right?
Very shyly she nodded
Sora: though I'll never guess why you want a jerk like him, oh well at least you're not lusting after my brother like so many other women are
Sora: so Megumi Morisato, why did you come along?
Megumi: besides the obvious relaxing, hey someone has to look after my big brother
Eeeerrr can't explain what that was all about. Anyway back with Keiichi
Keiichi: hhhmmm funny layout for a cottage, M do you read me?
M: M here, eeerr can you make this quick?
Keiichi: why?
M: No particular reason, it's just that I'm very busy
Keiichi: whatever, look there really is something suspicious about this place, the walls are reinforced, the windows shatterproof, not to mention Sayako's almost zombie-like behavior. It's almost like he's invited us here with no intention of letting us leave. M, give me the okay, I want to kill Aoshima and get Bell out this evil place.
M: negative, if someone were to see you, how can explain yourself?
Keiichi: than I'll accept the punishment, I'll have no regrets
M: than how would you explain it to Belldandy
Keiichi:.........
M: just be a little patient, I'll have the GPS online and we can investigate further
???: who are you talking to?
M: m-me? Uuuuummm no one!!!!
Keiichi: M? Who's that?
M: just a colleague!!!! Look gotta go Keiichi!!! I'll inform you if anything turns up, over and out
Keiichi: M gets weirder and weirder.........
Sayako: Keiichi?
Keiichi: AAAHHHH, oh it's just you Sayako
Sayako: I've come to inform you that dinner is ready, would you and Belldandy please come to the dining room?
Keiichi: (where did she come from? If she snuck up I would have known) okay
Sayako bowed and left
Sayako: oh and Keiichi?
Keiichi: yes?
Sayako: it isn't wise to meddle with other people's business
Keiichi:.........
M: Keiichi?
Keiichi: M?
M: I heard everything, go to the dinner and try to act normal as you can, you can't let him suspect you, over and out
Keiichi: how do you know all this??!!! It's almost like you're here too?
M: there's no time just do it
Keiichi: right
Keiichi proceeded back into his room there Belldandy was waiting for him or at least he could hear her voice.
Belldandy: Keiichi, how was your walk?
Keiichi: pretty educational
Belldandy: oh that's good
Keiichi: we've been called for dinner
Belldandy: oh okay
Belldandy walked out to Keiichi wearing a beautiful blue dress.
Belldandy: Keiichi so what do you think?
Needless to say Keiichi was stunned. Belldandy was always known for her simplistic beauty but seeing her in a fancy dress like this made her absolutely breath taking.
Keiichi: y-you l-look beautiful, yes very beautiful
Belldandy: thank you Keiichi, I was saving up to get this dress
Keiichi: but why? I didn't think this was your type of thing
Belldandy: Keiichi, I always wanted to wear something like this for you.........I'm glad you like it
Keiichi: Bell you look beautiful in anything
Belldandy blushed a little
Belldandy: oh now you're just saying that
Keiichi: well shall we?
Smiling warmly, Keiichi offered an arm
Belldandy: lets
Belldandy happily took it. It was these brief moments that she really enjoyed, getting to see Keiichi smile. At the dining room
Keiichi: well we're here
Aoshima: aw it's nice to see you Keiichi., oh you look exceptionally lovely tonight Belldandy
Keiichi: where's everyone else?
Aoshima: they'll be joining us shortly I just wanted to talk things
Keiichi: fine
The three sat down
Aoshima: let me ask you Keiichi, do you really hate me this much?
Keiichi: yes
Aoshima: I see without any hesitation too it would appear
Belldandy: now Keiichi, we should be polite
Keiichi: just being honest
Belldandy: well that's true
Aoshima: I can see it in your eyes Keiichi.........if you had the chance you would not even think twice of striking me down right now
Keiichi fingered the P29 hidden in his jacket, what was Aoshima getting at?
Keiichi: I don't know what you mean
Aoshima: fair enough, I'm too much in a good mood to worry about you spoiling it. Yes, you see tonight I'll be making history
Keiichi: history?
Aoshima: yes, you.........Belldandy will help me make history
Belldandy: what do you mean?
Aoshima: you will learn soon enough my dear. However sadly Keiichi this new history will have no room for you Keiichi, so all I ask is not to get in my way.........
Aoshima got up and turned to leave
Aoshima: you'll live a lot longer that way
Belldandy: you won't be joining us?
Aoshima: I have already fed, just dine and enjoy yourselves......... after all life is too short, you never know when it will end, enjoy your moments as if they were your last
Aoshima left.
Keiichi: well that was strange
Belldandy shivered
Belldandy: I don't know why but I'm getting another strange feeling of pure evil
Keiichi: I know how you feel
Belldandy: what?
Keiichi: nothing
Belldandy: you know Keiichi.........we are alone
Keiichi smiled, he knew exactly what she meant. The two leaned over for a kiss, however.........
Tamiya: FOOD!!!!!!!!
The two immediately reverted to their seats as if nothing happened as the rest of the gang came to dine on the numerous foods.
Urd: he may be jerk but at least he's got a good selection of things to eat, say aren't you two having anything?
Keiichi: suddenly I lost my appetite
Belldandy leaned over to Keiichi to whisper into his ear
Belldandy: don't worry if you're not busy maybe we can go see the moon shining at the lake at midnight
Keiichi nodded, he liked that plan.
Later at midnight while everyone was asleep. Only one was still awake
Aoshima: finally at last the time has arrived tonight I'll break out of Keiichi's shadow and achieve ultimate power.
Aoshima stalked towards Belldandy and Keiichi's bedroom and opened the door. Unfortunately he entered the wrong room.
Aoshima: wait a minute!!!! You're not Belldandy
Tamiya: Course not dose I look like Belldandy??!!!
Aoshima: ggggrrrrr what are you doing here anyway??!!
Tamiya: wese liked their room better so wese switched
Aoshima: well where are they??!!
Otaki: oh said something by going out to the lake
Aoshima: typical, Morisato just HAS to make my job even more complicated, well I'll make his death that much more painful.........hhhmmm perhaps I do have a use for the two of you
Tamiya: whats do you mean?
Aoshima: oh you'll see
Chanting some inaudible incantations, he places the two lugheads under his spell.
Tamiya: whats dose youse command of us Master?
Otaki: yeah Master.........
Aoshima: follow me
Meanwhile at around the same time at the lake, the two lovers held on to each other as they watched the night's sky.
Belldandy: The moonlight sure shines beautifully on the lake
Keiichi was paying more attention to Bell though
Keiichi: yeah beautiful
Belldandy just simply giggled but became serious again
Belldandy: Keiichi.........are you being totally honest with me?
Keiichi hated lying to her but had no choice
Keiichi: yes
Belldandy: I see I believe you
Keiichi: why did you read my mind?
Belldandy: no it's because I believe in you
Keiichi felt terrible maybe it was time to tell the truth for all the years he had been lying to her.
Keiichi: Bell have you ever done things you've regretted but you do them anyway because you believe it's the right thing to do
Belldandy: of course, Keiichi.........there's a lot of things that I might regret but.........I don't let them worry me
Keiichi: how?
Belldandy: everytime I feel troubled I turn and see you at my side and know that no matter what, I won't let sorrow or regret ruin my life
Keiichi: that sounds like the answer you've give, Bell.........if you found out my darkest secrets would you still love me?
Belldandy: of course, Keiichi we've come this far.........no matter what I'll never stop loving you
Keiichi: I see.........
But in the end Keiichi couldn't confess his secret, no not yet. Belldandy leaned over and the two kissed. Belldandy smiled over Keiichi.
Belldandy: I'm sorry
Keiichi: why?
Belldandy: well for sometime you've been acting strangely.........with these chains of murders I started to doubt you and actually started to suspect that you were that cold heartless murderer.........no after sharing a moment like this, I know that it can never be you.........Keiichi, your body may have pull the trigger numerous times, but it was your heart that watched with regret and sorrow as those lives began to fade away.
That comment took Keiichi by surprise.
Keiichi: you knew?
Belldandy nodded
Belldandy: Keiichi with our bond there's nothing we can hide from each other. I knew it was you for some time.........every morning how you would push me away, how you would keep to yourself as if you did something regrettable, how you even shed tears for those you shot.........I wish I could have shared your pain with you but unless you opened up I could never help you, Keiichi you'll always have me
Keiichi: but why do you stay with me?!!! I murdered those people, evil or not they were still lives
Belldandy: Keiichi, sometimes doing the right thing can the hardest thing.........remember when the Lord of Terror possessed you? The right thing at the moment would have let father kill you.........but I couldn't live in a universe knowing I had to sacrifice you to save it. I wish there was a peaceful solution to everything but.........I guess that's too naive of me to think right? That's why I admire your strength
Keiichi kissed her again
Keiichi: no that's the kind, peaceful Belldandy thinking.........I wish I could think like you at handling these problems
Belldandy: and I wish I had your strength when facing such problems
The two smiled at other as they just held on to each other as their love and passion immediately took over. There were many problems in the world but it did not matter as long as they had each other. Back at the cottage
Urd: hhmm? Can't sleep?
Peorth: no I'm worried.........do you not sense it?
Urd:.........no
Peorth: I didn't expect much from a second rate goddess anyway
Urd: SECOND RATE??!!!
Urd sprang up from bed but at that moment she could sense it too
Urd: growing evil.........
Peorth: exactly
Urd: it's not safe here
Peorth: we need to get everyone out
Urd: right but "they" might give us problems
Peorth turned to the door several decaying figures had broken through the door and were menacingly creeping towards them.
Urd: it's all fun and games and than the zombies attack
Peorth: OKAY THAT'S IT!!!! I can tolerate not sparking Keiichi's flaming passions, I can tolerate Tamiya perversely leering at me but the moment the undead barge in Peorth of the Rose's vacation than there's hell to pay!!!! PEORTH ROSE STORM!!!! Back at the lake, the lovers were still together.
Belldandy: Keiichi.........I can sense everyone is in danger!!!
Keiichi: (dammit!!! Is this what Aoshima was talking about?)
Belldandy: stay here, I will see what's wrong
Keiichi: no I won't let you go alone
???: Ha ha ha ha, how touching
Keiichi: Aoshima??!!!
Aoshima: in the flesh.........by now my little pets should be dealing with your friends
Keiichi: what do you want??!!
Aoshima: all the usual, your head on a platter, Belldandy, ultimate power.........nothing special
Belldandy: such evil is radiating from him.........
Aoshima: evil? Why my dear this is love, the love I will have when I will help shape a new world
Keiichi: if that's what you call love than I don't want to see what you call hate.........but it matters not really, today you die
Aoshima: and what is a MERE mortal going to do about it?
Aiming his hand at Keiichi, he fired a blast, which knocked Keiichi to the ground.
Aoshima: Ha ha ha ha, I've been waiting such a long time to do that
Belldandy: Keiichi!!!! I swear if you hurt him I'll........
Aoshima: such anger.........ha ha ha even your anger turns me on.........but for now why don't you rest?
Firing another blast he struck Belldandy and knocked her out.
Keiichi: Belldandy!!! You bastard
Aoshima: forsaking my needs was your biggest mistake Belldandy, but don't worry I forgive you for soon you'll be mine forever
Keiichi weakly picked himself up
Keiichi: HEY!!!! Do you think I'm going to just simply let you walk away?
Aoshima: still have fight in you I see.........well I'm much too busy to deal with you, why don't you play with your little friends?
Keiichi: what the??!!
From out of nowhere Tamiya's big arms grabbed Keiichi in a bear hug. Otaki revealed himself shortly afterwards.
Tamiya: soon the moment will arrive
Otaki: you will not stop our master's plan
Aoshima: as much as I would enjoy seeing Keiichi suffer, the ritual is about to start.........farewell Morisato
Aoshima and Belldandy's unconscious form both disappeared.
Keiichi: ritual? ARRRGGGHHH
Tamiya's grip was just getting tighter and it looked like Otaki was planning to beat on Keiichi in his helpless state.
Keiichi: I don't have time for this!!!! Sorry Tamiya for what I need to do
Keiichi back-kicked Tamiya in the groin, in immense pain the big man fell to the ground unconscious. Not missing a beat, Keiichi reached for his P29 and aimed it at Otaki's face. Even under mind control, Otaki could recognize danger when he saw it.
Otaki: K-kei? You won't shoot a friend willya?
Keiichi: you're right, but I can't have you in my way
Keiichi brought the butt of his pistol onto Otaki's head. He too fell unconscious.
Keiichi: now I have to stop Aoshima's ritual Keiichi made it back to Aoshima's cottage, where the goddesses were waiting for him.
Keiichi: guys!!!!
Peorth: OH Keiichi you're okay!!!!
Not thinking she ran out to hug him.
Keiichi: thanks, what happened? Are they okay?
Keiichi pointed to the unconscious forms of Chihiro, Sora and Sayako.
Peorth: it's not good.........we could sense an aura of evil from that place and it's growing stronger by the second
Skuld: let's not forget about the hordes of the undead that now fills the place.
Urd: we barely were able to get out with them, Sora and Chihiro are okay, just passed out. Sayako tried to attack us I think she had something to do with this growing evil against her own will too no doubt. I was able to cast a spell to free her from whatever cursed her.
Keiichi: hhhhmmmm
Keiichi reached over and pulled the bandage on Sayako's neck, there were two small puncture marks on it.
Keiichi: so that's what's going on,
Realization than hit Keiichi
Keiichi: where's Megumi?
Peorth: we.........we don't know
Keiichi: WHAT??!!
Peorth: we couldn't find her.........Keiichi I'm sorry
Keiichi: Megumi.........no not my sister too, look guys Aoshima has Belldandy, he said something about a ritual involving her
Urd: great this can't possibly happen at a worst time, watch
Urd pressed her hand on the opening of the door, it wasn't able to pass through.
Urd: there's some sort of barrier here that barring us goddesses from going back inside, it activated the moment we escaped
Keiichi pressed his had, he was able to get through
Keiichi: but not me.........guys I have to rescue Belldandy
Urd: what??!! Going in there is suicide!!!
Peorth: good luck Keiichi please come back alive
Keiichi: I will!!! With Belldandy and Megumi too
Keiichi ran inside the now evil house.
Urd: heh you know you just sent him to his death Peorth
Peorth: he would have went in anyway.........we can't stop him and I bet not even the evil in this house can stop him either, I'm believe that he will do it
Skuld: GUYS!!! More undead at 12:00
Urd: man these guys are endless!!!!
Peorth: hey we're not going to let bunch of corpses stop us, are we? After all we're some of Heaven's finest goddesses!!!
Urd: if this is the end, than it was great working with you Peorth
Peorth: the feeling's mutual
Skuld: stop talking like it's the end or you'll both get a Skuld bomb
Urd: heh the kid's right
Peorth: let's do this girls!!!! PEORTH ROSE STORM!
Urd: URD LIGHTNING ATTACK!
Skuld: NEO SKULD BOMB!!! Inside
Keiichi: man I don't have enough bullets for this
Keiichi shot at another zombie, and loaded another clip.
Keiichi's communicator than went off.
M: Keiichi!!! M here
Keiichi: what do you want?
M: Keiichi.........I've got info for you, Aoshima's a.........
Keiichi: vampire right? Those were teeth marks on Sayako's neck
M: yes but not just any ordinary type, he's like Dracula, you know selling his mortal soul for eternal power. That's how he gets most of the vampire's strengths and very few of their weaknesses
Keiichi: so that's how he was able to walk out during sunlight but who did he sell his soul to achieve such a thing?
M: we're not sure.........look I was able to learn something, his power while great is not infinite yet. During the early hours of the morning if he can sacrifice a pure virgin maiden and join its soul with his than he'll be unstoppable
Keiichi: so that's why he wants Belldandy
M: yes.........Keiichi, we were not able to learn the source of Aoshima's power but.........I'm giving you the okay to assassinate Toshiyuki Aoshima
Keiichi: M? But what about the mission to learn of Aoshima's power source?
M: I've put you through too much, I let you sacrifice Belldandy.........no this is no longer about duty, this is about your love for Belldandy, Keiichi go to her. I will guide you to where the ritual will take place, it's where the GPS's signal is the strongest. Fight your hardest and save Belldandy
Keiichi: M! Does the GPS say where my sister is?
M: Megumi.........Keiichi don't worry about her, she's just fine, a little shaken up but fine
Keiichi: M.........thank you
M: no Keiichi thank you, now hurry before those zombies get back!!! At the inner sanctums where the ritual will take place. Belldandy whom was still out laid on a stone alter, dim candles lit the large room where the time started to draw near.
Aoshima: now no one can stop me
Keiichi: you're forgetting someone who can
Aoshima: WHAT??!! YOU!!!! You're still alive??!
Keiichi: yeah I can be a real bitch at times can't I?
Aoshima: hhhmmm a member of Heaven's Sect, yes he warned me about you
Keiichi aimed his gun at Aoshima
Keiichi: how do you know about me?
Aoshima: seeing you with Belldandy, it just frustrated me to no ends. How can you a loser end up with a woman like her? You ended up creating me Morisato.........you created me obsession, my desire to be better than you. Than one day this mysterious man came, he told me he would give me power that can destroy you but only when I took Belldandy's soul could I make it permanent and stronger than the way I am now. Naturally I agreed!! All this power and if I take Belldandy's soul I can be stronger than this even more powerful than you!!! But the man warned me you'll try and stop me, but I had no idea you would go the lengths that you have gone
Keiichi: if your plan is to hurt Belldandy than you have no idea how far I will go
Aoshima: well you're too late!!! Belldandy's pure soul will now join with me and my power will be infinite, now watch as you fail your precious beloved
Aoshima turned to the alter and chanted more inaudible incantations. Light descended from the sky and enveloped Belldandy. After it had passed, nothing seemed to have happened.
Aoshima: WHAT??!! The ritual failed??!!! But how? did everything correctly!!!
Keiichi: everything except one thing, the ritual required for a virgin maiden
Aoshima: wait than that would mean.........WHAT??!!!
Keiichi: it's not something I'll brag about but we did more than just talk out there at the lake.
Aoshima:.........GGGRRRRR YOU !!!! YOU!!!!! MY CHANCE FOR INFINITE POWER FAILED BECAUSE OF YOU!!!!!
Keiichi: that's right, it's over Aoshima
Aoshima: ggrr I may not obtain the power I want but it is still enough to defeat you!!!!
Aoshima fired several more of his blasts but this time Keiichi easily dodged them. In rage Aoshima tried to physically attack Keiichi but by attacking out of rage Keiichi was able to dodge every one of his punches and kicks with ease. Keiichi retaliated with a few punches of his own and hit his mark.
Aoshima: how? You're only a mortal!!! Even with my incomplete strength you shouldn't be able to match me
Keiichi: you want to know why? The moment you sold your soul you gave up everything.........there are times I may have resented by my existence but I open my eyes and realize that I have her at my side!! Just as long as I continue to fight for her sake.........I'll always be.........
PUNCH
Keiichi: Faster,
PUNCH
Keiichi: Smarter,
UPPERCUT
Keiichi: and definitely stronger than you
Aoshima bitterly got up and spat blood.
Aoshima: HA HA you don't realize that I'm only using 50% of my true power, now you'll see me at 100%!!!!
A black aura surrounded Aoshima as his power began to increase but something was terribly wrong.
Aoshima: WHAT??!! What is going on??!! Why does my body feel like it is on fire??!!! NOOO!!!! I-I can't DIE LIKE THIS!!!!
Aoshima's own power was consuming him as he started to combust and slowly burned to dust.
Keiichi: hmph what a pathetic fool, a fitting end for him by his own obsession. Belldandy!!!
Running to the alter Keiichi checked his lover.
Keiichi: good she's still okay. Looks like it's over my love.
???: Not quite
Keiichi: who's there??!!
Keiichi aimed his gun at the direction of the voice, where a tall dark haired figure stood.
???: Very good Keiichi, you were everything that I expected and more
Keiichi: who are you?
???: I go by the name Celestine
Keiichi: Celestine?
Celestine: yes, you see a war will soon be waged against Heaven with me at the helm and I am looking for a few good soldiers for my side
Keiichi: like Aoshima?
Celestine: no, he merely was a puppet I gave him power to see if he could realize his greed but as you could see he was clearly too weak to control them. No I used him to get your attention, this was all a test and you passed with flying colors.
Keiichi: to be what? To be another puppet to you?
Celestine: no, what I'm offering is to be a free man, aren't you sick of being God's lapdog? To kill demons and sinners just so God can remain a saint? If you swear allegiance to me, I will give you anything your heart desires to free you from the pain.
Keiichi:.........and you think by starting a war with Heaven will solve all of this?
Celestine: yes because Keiichi we are alike you and I. We both desire to save this world from the evil and defend the innocent. Keiichi for the longest time I sat by watching the innocent suffer and all of Heaven's rewards went to the privileged not the truly deserving. Don't you agree this is the case?
Keiichi:.........
Celestine: but don't you see, the one you call God now is the true evil, he lets the innocent suffer while he rewards the undeserving. If I have to rebel against Heaven to save the innocent than war I shall, Keiichi fight for my side.........you will help realize our dream faster if you do
Keiichi: if you had asked me that question a few years ago I might have agreed but........
Keiichi glanced over Belldandy.
Keiichi: just as long as I have someone to fight for, I'll never give up........I don't care about your war with Heaven but if dare to harm her than I'll have no choice but to kill you
Celestine: (Belldandy, my former student I am proud that you have chosen a powerful man to call your love.) I see........I kind of expected this answer, no matter I will give you more time to think of my proposal, our paths will definitely cross again, I hope it won't be as enemies. Ha ha you will see that I am right, why don't you ask Belldandy she knowsme the best that is if she still remembers me
And as quickly as he had appeared Celestine disappeared.
Keiichi: Celestine
Belldandy: Keiichi?
Belldandy blinked her eyes open
Belldandy: is everything okay?
Keiichi nodded
Keiichi: yes my love, let's go home
Back at home
Keiichi: and so that's what happened
M: hhhmmm Celestine
Keiichi: do you know anything about him?
M: there's nothing in the databases but I'll keep looking someone who wants to go so far as rebel against Heaven there should be something, ironic to think the new threat is a god as well.
Keiichi: so how's the cleanup?
M: so far so good, we cleared up any traces of evidence from the scene and the subjects Tamiya, Otaki, Megumi, Sayako and Chihiro memories of the incident have been erased. We even went so far to erase Aoshima's existence it will be like he never existed in the first place. The only ones who will remember will be the goddesses, God has told me it will help if they remember
Keiichi: I see, well it will be easier not having to hide it from them
M: take some time off you deserve it
Keiichi: okay, Keiichi over and out
The transmission cut.
M: I hope you can forgive me one day.........Keiichi, my dear brother.........
The End?
Skuld: eeerrr okay so that's what things would have been like if Keiichi were an angst hero
Keiichi: man I never knew I could be so sadistic
Urd/Peorth: WOW KEIICHI'S SO COOL!!!!!
Belldandy: I admit while that was exciting, I like Keiichi the way he is now but I really didn't like how it portrayed me as the damsel in distress
Keiichi: awww thanks Bell
Urd: well I have to admit that definitely was worth the price of admission
Skuld: WHAT??!! URD!!! Did you ask that question just so you can get a free movie?
Urd: heh heh
Skuld: sigh
Belldandy: well I'm going to make some tea, why don't someone else ask a question?
Belldandy gets up and leaves.
Peorth: (This is my chance!!!!) Hey Skuld I have a question
Skuld: okay sure go ahead.
Peorth smiled, she was going to enjoy this.
To Be Continued.........Well there was chapter one, so what do you think? I definitely enjoyed writing it I hope you will enjoy reading it. On to some fun facts about this chapter:
-The movie that inspired me to write this chapter was Van Helsing (believe it or not I've not actually seen the movie yet)
-I always wanted to write a story where Keiichi could fight instead of standing around in the background I hope I did a good job
-I really do hate portraying Bell as the Damsel in distress as she can easily take care of herself hence why she said it during the story.
-There was some OOC but remember this was a what if story
-Yeah I enjoy killing off Aoshima, this is my second story to do so, with another one having him arrested and my Sins of a Goddess story, Peorth punches him out constantly. If you have time why don't you read that? I would definitely like it if you do.
-If you haven't figured it out by now M is Megumi
Well what's Peorth going to ask for? Only way to find out is to stay tune for chapter 2
