Chapter 3
Anata stood there in front of a stone Kou, with an evil grin. He slowly turned to face Anata fully.
"Weak." The stone Kou said as he started to walk up to Anata.
"I know that your not Kou, but this is hitting to close to home." Anata said as she pulled another battle cross from the pocket. Allowing it to extend all the way. "Let's just end this so I can get back home and get back to a some what normal life."
"It's not that easy." The Stone Kou said. Then he put him self in to a fighting stance that Anata had seen before. It was the stance that he would go in to right before he would charge in to a battle against a shadow. It was fast and effective. Anata then aimed her Battle cross at the stone Kou ready to use it at any time.
Just then, the stone Kou launched towards Anata. As soon as he moved, Anata fired the battle cross, but to only miss when Kou had darted off to the side about half way to Anata. Before she knew it Kou was there beside her, and in two swift movements he knocked her battle cross out of her hand. Sending it flying several feet away. The second movement struck her in the visor to her helmet making it crack to the point where she could not see out of it. Sliding to a stop after the two movements Kou took the end of the staff and gabbed it in to Anata's stomach. Making her grab her self and fall to the ground. All three moves only took two seconds.
As Anata stood there on her knees, she reached up and took off her helmet and threw it to the ground. And reached for another cross. Slowly she stood back up with one hand still on her stomach. "Those three hits were a freebie." Anata said.
"I know what you know. And we both know that you are not a match for me. So go back to your world and except its fate." Kou said as he took another stance.
"Thin if you know me, then you know that I'm not backing down." Anata said as she readied her self for another attack.
"True. You are rather thick. And never know when to quit when you're in over your head." Kou replied.
She waited for Kou to make his move, knowing that if this was Kou from her head. He would for sure do something and not stand around and talk too much. And she was right. Like it was in slow motion, she watched Kou charge at her again. Just like the first time. But this time she was ready. Waiting for the right time she took only one step to her right and watched as Kou started to slide to a stop in efforts to correct the failed attack. Seeing her opening, she swung the cross, but to only have it blocked by the staff in the stone Kou's hands.
"That was a different move. Just make that one up?" Kou asked.
"No more then two seconds ago. Oh and by the way that was my thick head just out smarting you." Anata said with a smirk.
"But I'm already a rock so the battle cross will not effect me." Kou said.
"What?!" Anata asked as she was started to get a bad feeling.
"Just watch." Kou said as he took one hand off the staff and grabbed the cross in Anata's hands. When he did Lightning went shooting out from his in between his fingers as he grasped the cross. Letting go of the cross, Anata took a step back. Thinking fast there as just about only one thing she could do. Clapping her hands together close to her chest, she slowly pulled them apart. As she did a ball of enriched energy formed. Looking up at the cross, she grabbed the ball with one hand. Bring her arm back she threw it right in to the blue sphere of her batter cross. Making it crack. As the crack grew she looked in to the eyes of the stone Kou.
"The power coming out of the cross when it's discharged might not be strong enough, but the unaltered power coming from the sphere nothing can with stand." Anata said as both her and the Kou look alike watched as the blue sphere cracked more and more. Just when the sphere shattered, Anata formed a shield up around, but it was not fast enough. Anata was surrounded by a flash of blinding light.
When the light faded, Anata had half her face in to the ground and the half covered with her arm. Slowly she moved her arm. The one eye that was out of the dirt was open. She remained still, she didn't know if she was dead or she just couldn't move. But as she lay there on the ground she started to remember what had happened when she and her family got back home.
= = = = = = One week ago = = = = = =
Walking in to the temple, every one stated to go about their normal daily things. Going to her room, Anata flopped on to her futon and rolled on over on to her side and turned on her TV. As she lay there on the bed lessening to the TV, Anata started to think that the program on the TV was some sci-fi show.
"The black sphere or the 'Back Hole' as it's been dubbed. Just reported some two hours ago, the police has blocked off a half mile radius around the 'Black Hole.' And are awaiting local scientists and national scientists to investigate the object. We will up date you as the facts come in."
Not even giving a second thought about what was on the TV and just reached back over and shut the TV off. As she was about to drift off in to a nap, when she heard someone knocking really hard on the front door. Anata didn't want to get up all she did was wait for someone else to answer the door. Then she heard some one answer the door, it was her mother.
"Ryoka?! Goodness why are you out of breath?" Belldandy asked.
"Mrs. Morisato.... I need...... To talk to Anata..... No everyone...." Ryoka said in between breaths.
"Calm down and come in. I'll get Anata." Belldandy said as she welcomed Ryoka in to the temple.
Hearing all the noise in the other room, Anata got up off of her Futon just in time for her mother to open the door. "Anata dear that Ryoka girl is here asking to speak to all of us." Belldandy said.
"Ryoka? What is she doing here?" Anata asked.
Walking out in t the living room, Anata found Ryoka and Kou sitting at the couch. Ryoka was downing a glass of water.
"You must slow down. And catch your breath. Tell us, what is the problem?" Kou said.
"Have any of you been watching the news?" Ryoka asked.
"No, we just got home from a trip." Anata replied.
Ryoka didn't say another word, all she did was get up off the couch and turn on the TV. Anata, Kou, and Belldandy froze in place when they saw what was on the TV screen. Ryoka then turned up the sound so they can hear the news report.
"I know too what this is. Even since Anata had removed the Shadow from me, I still remember the thoughts of that monster. And this is a Gate way to their realm. The shadows are getting to take this world." Ryoka said in an almost ghostly tone.
Hearing the different tone coming from Ryoka every one turned to her to see her eyes were not there deep green, but all black. A black that even covered the whites of her eyes. Belldandy went to Ryoka and started to check up on her.
"Ryoka dear? Ryoka?" Belldandy said.
"Ryoka?" Anata said finally snapping the girl out of her daze.
"What...... Sorry about that, Sid effects. It happens sometimes." Ryoka said as she blinked and the black eyes started go back to her normal green.
Just then the phone started to ring. Walking over to it Kou answered it.
"Hello Morisato residence." Anata said.
"This is Mara, if there's anything in the back yard clear it out." Mara said over the phone.
"What?! Why are you coming here?" Kou asked loudly making everyone know who he was talking too.
"Too late Kid!" Mara said as right before she hung up the phone.
Looking over at Belldandy and Keiichi, Kou gave them a confused clue look. "What was that all about?" Kou asked.
"I don't know?" Keiichi replied.
Just then there was a bright flash of light and a crash. Every one ran to the kitchen to see what it was. When they looked out the window, then saw a smoldering hole in the ground that had cut the front end of Keiichi's car and flattened Anata's Side car to her bike. They both ran to take a closer look at the damage, not even seeing the four demons and Mara standing there in the center of the hole.
"May car!!!!" Keiichi yelled as he started to cry over the remaining half of his car. "I don't think that insurance is going to cover this."
"Forget about the car! My side car, it's flat as a pancake! And I know for sire that insurance will not cover this!!!" Anata cried over the remains of her side car.
"Earthly maturals will be the down fall of the humanity." Mara said.
Hearing her voice, Anata turned to the Demon.
"YOU!!! YOU DID THIS TO MY SIDE CAR!!!!" Anata said as she formed a force bolt.
"MY CAR, THEY DON'T MAKE THOSE ANYMORE!!!" Keiichi said as he rolled up his sleeve to her shirt.
Then a really large demon that was behind Mara grabbed Keiichi by the back of his shirt and lifted him to his level.
"Watch your voice to lady Mara." The demon said.
"YOU DROP MY KEIICHI!" Belldandy yelled as she too had a force bolt in her hand. And with Kou ready with his staff in hand.
Every one was at a stand off.
"Relax, we were sent here." Mara said as she walked up to Belldandy. "Hild sent us here, now tell Anata to put away the force bolt and you man to stop crying over his car."
In side the house, in the living room. Ryoka watched the news. Then the screen started to do some funny things. Leaning closer to get a better look, Just then someone's face came on to the screen that was not part of the news brad cast.
"What the?" Ryoka said. "Who are you?"
"I'm a friend of Kou's. I am Hara. I must speak to any one of the Morisato family." Hara said over through the TV.
"How do I know that you're not one of them out side?" Ryoka asked.
"Allow me to guess, there are five vary powerful demons out side and those of the Morisato family are not sure if there here to make trouble." Hara said.
Just in the bathroom, the mirror rippled and out stepped Delenn from the mirror. Sitting down on the edge of the sink, she stretched her arms. "That was an enjoyable trip the Morisato's I've heard has always kept large mirrors." Delenn said as she hopped down from the sink.
At the bathtub, two beams of light shot up and out came Ichigo and Koishi.
"I like coming through a bath, the water is always so warm." Ichigo said.
"No kidding, not coming through a freezing fountain." Koishi said agreeing with her twin sister.
Out side, Kou lowered his guard, when he felt his friend's presents. "Lady Belldandy do you feel that?" Kou asked.
"I do, there are four from Yggdrasil here." Belldandy replied.
The twins walked out from the bath room and in to the living room where Ryoka was still asking Hara why he's in the TV.
"And why are you in there?" Ryoka asked.
"This is how I travel between the worlds. You know I've read your file, for someone that has been taken over by a shadow, you know vary little." Hara said with a matter of fact tone.
"Why are you still in there?" Delenn asked as she walked up to the TV and took the remote from Ryoka. "Here I'll get you out of there."
Turning the contrast all the way up on the TV, Hara came through the TV screen landing on top of Ryoka. "Excuse me." Hara said.
"Are you turning in to a pervert?" Koishi asked.
"No! She just didn't move out of the way." Hara said as he quickly moved to his feet.
"What the Hell are all of you doing here?"
Everyone turned around to see Kou standing there at the door.
"Kou!" Delenn yelled as she ran to give Kou a hug.
"I missed you too, but why are you here?" Kou asked again.
"Peorth sent us here to make sure that there is a big enough space here." Ichigo answered.
Just then Mara walked in after Anata and Belldandy went to see who was there from Yggdrasil.
"Well, Well? Is this the best Yggdrasil has to offer? If that's the case we're in trouble." Mara said as she took a good look at the four students from Yggdrasil.
"Peorth sent us because we work well together." Koichi said as she marched up to get right in to Mara's face.
"May I ask why are the four of you here?" Belldandy said as she lightly moved Mara to the side.
"Oh Right!" Ichigo said snapping her fingers. "We are to tell you to make sure that there is a big enough space for the Troops."
"Troops?" Belldandy asked.
"Yggdrasil is sending the defenders of the heavens here to earth. Because..... Well you know." Hara said as he pointed at the TV.
Just then every one looked at the TV just in time to hear the news on the TV.
= = = = = = = = = The news = = = = = = =
"The Defense forces and scientists have just arrived. The defense forces have just extended the quarantine area to a full mile. And here are the scientists are the ones in the yellow." The man in the news helicopter reported as the helicopter circled over the gate. The camera zoomed in to the three men that were walking up to the gate in radiation suits.
"The scientists have radiation suits on just in case, I hear that their checking for any thing that may be harmful to the people of Nekomi.... Not they look like their going to probe it with something......" Just then three bolts of lightning shot out of the gate each one hitting a scientist. Turning them to a skillation and dust.
"That the Hell!!!!" the man in the helicopter said then the camera cough flash of light and there was nothing but static.
= = = = = = = = End the news = = = = = = =
Every one stood there in shock, Anata snapped out of her shock and ran to the closet and grabbed her helmet for bike and ran past her mother.
"Anata wait!!!!" Belldandy yelled.
But Anata didn't hear a word her mother said. Getting on to her bike she kicked off the arm that connected the side car to her bike. And started up her bike. Belldandy ran as fast as she could to her daughter to stop her, but Anata whipped her bike around and sped out of the back yard, tarring up the yard as she did.
"Anata!!!!!!" Belldandy yelled again.
"Anata?" Kou said to him self.
Anata speeded through the city streets, passing cars at break neck speeds. As she came up to an intersection, Anata watched in horror as a scimi truck pulled out in to the middle of the intersection. Her eyes went wide. Dropping back down to lower gears, and locked up the back wheel. Skidding to a stop and Anata took a deep breath. And lifted up her visor.
"Move the Hell out of the way!!!!!" Anata yelled at the truck driver.
"Watch it you punk!" The truck driver yelled back at Anata.
Getting mad, Anata slammed the visor back down and put her bike back in to gear. Pushing it back, Anata pulled away from the truck at a vary high speed. As she approached the park where the 'black hole' was at she could feel the fear of the defense forces. She came to the edge of the park just in time to hear the canon fire from the tanks. Then as she got closer she saw the flash of light. Anata skidded to a stop. Putting the kick stand down, Anata got off of her bike and ran to the sight, forgetting to take off the helmet. When she came edge of the quarantine area, Anata stopped dead in her tracks. It was something that she had never seen before. There was the burned out shells of the tanks with the burned bodies of the troops that made up the forces. She walked passed and walked the whole mile to the 'Black Hole'. When she reached it she stopped and removed her helmet, letting her long black loose. Shaking her head she glared at the 'Black Hole' and pointed.
"I know who you are, and hear this. I, Anata Morisato will avenge these people who you have killed. Be prepared. For when I return, it will be the end of you and your kind." Anata said and turned her back to the gate and walked back to her bike.
= = = = = = = Flash back to the present = = = = = = =
Remembering her promise, Anata snapped back to reality. Her hand grasped the ground and she started to slowly started to push her self back up.
"I, Anata Morisato. Will defeat you... And your kind..." Anata said as she slowly stood to her feet.
Looking ahead, Anata saw what looked like a stone temple. And started to limp to that place, something was calling her. She didn't know nor understand what that calling was. Anata walked on to that feeling she had.
Meanwhile out side at Earth. The battle raged one.
"SKULD MEGA CANON, MARK THREE!!!! FIRE!!!!!!" Skuld yelled as she pointed at her target and the canon fire blasted behind and over her.
Watching as a line of explosions going off several hundred yards ahead of her, Skuld watches as a young Demon runs up past her right to Hild, who was standing atop of a platform with Kami.
"My Lady, Our scouts report that the shadows are retreating. They seem to be withdrawing to the gate." The young demon stated.
"Cary good, tell our forces to keep on them. But do not approach the gate." Held reported.
Kami standing next to her looked over to Hara. "Do the same, tell our forces to circle the gate and make sure no more shadows comes out of it."
Hild then turns to Kami. "Oh how I some times miss the days where our forces would fight it out just about every hundred years. It excites me is more ways then one." Hild said.
Then there was this odd silence between her and Kami. Then Hild looks over at Kami. "Like I said. It excites me in more ways then one." Hild said in a low tone.
Kami being a man, and some times us men are a little thick. Kami stood there thinking what she met by 'in more ways then one.' Then it hit him.
"What???? Not now. We have to do this first then we can do that." Kami said as he was making sure that no one was around to over hear them talking.
Hild then whispers in to Kami's ear. "When it's over then, I got a new whip."
Kami then looks around to see his troops. "COME ON GET A MOVE ON!!! WE... Umm I HAVE THINGS TO DO!!!!!"
Meanwhile in at the temple, Belldandy was given the task of healing both those from Yggdrasil and Demons. The halls of the temple and bedrooms were filled with the hurt. Belldandy was ordered to do this early in the battle, by Kami not only as her father but as God. Keiichi saw also told to do so. Kami just didn't want any thing to happen to his granddaughter's parents.
~*~*~*~*~* Flashback two hours ago ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"But Father?" Belldandy protested.
"Belldandy that is what I said and I expect you to do so. I am your father and you God." Kami rebutted.
"Pulling the 'I'm your god' Line again, you haven't said that line to any of your daughter's in a vary long time. And it may have worked when we were children, but not now." Belldandy said almost to the point of yelling.
"Then why have you not have Skuld stay here also?" Belldandy asked.
"Skuld is setting up her.. (Looks out side to see Skuld setting up her mega canon, and then back at Belldandy.) What ever the heck that things is. Several hundred yards away from the front lines, you and Keiichi are asking to be right there on the main front. And I will have Anata coming home to two loving parents." Kami answered.
"And Urd?" Belldandy asked.
"Urd is Urd. She can hold her own during a fight. And right now I need you here. Please do that for me?" Kami asked placing his hand on to Belldandy's shoulder.
Keiichi stood there not sure if he wanted to say anything. Then he remembered him self saying telling Belldandy a long time ago just before he and Belldandy got to the judgment gate. He has said to Belldandy that if the gods wanted to go to war, he would remain by her side no matter what. And this seemed to fall in to that category.
"Belldandy, what do you need me to do? Just tell me and I'll see to it that it gets done." Keiichi said making her look up at him.
Belldandy only smiled.
"See, Keiichi here will help you. Now I must go." Kami said, just as the phone started to ring.
Answering it, Kami looked over at Belldandy and nodded. "I'll tell her." Kami said then he hung the phone back up.
"That was Peorth; they've been keeping close tabs on Anata's reactors. All four just dropped to .25%. But they have started to power back up." Kami said to Keiichi and Belldandy.
"Is Anata alright?!" Keiichi asked before Belldandy could draw any breath to ask the same question.
"As long as one of the reactors have the smallest amount of power she will be alright. But Peorth fears that Anata may be pushing her self to hard." Kami said.
Belldandy froze in place, she knew that Anata was stubborn and would finish what she started.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* End two hour flashback ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"My Lady? Lady Belldandy?" An older god said as he watched her sit their in a daze, with all the commotion going on around her.
Snapping out of her daze, Belldandy looked over at the older God. "Sorry about that. I'm just thinking about my daughter. Here you go, have some water." Belldandy said as she handed the glass of water to the older god.
"My lady, I am one of Anata's instructors. And she is one of my best students. I know that she will come through this all right." The older God said. And some how it made Belldandy feel somewhat better.
In the shadow realm, she walked on towards the Temple like rock formation. Her breaths where becoming long and shallow. Beaten and badly hurt, Anata walked on with a broken rib from her fight with the stone look alike of Kou. Her long black hair is now a gray ash color, from the ash and dirt on the ground. Stopping, Anata grabbed the side of her chest where the broken rib is at. It stung; it was a pain that she had never felt before. She had never had any broken bones before this. Starting walking again, she pushed her self more and more.
T.B.C.
Chapter 3
Anata stood there in front of a stone Kou, with an evil grin. He slowly turned to face Anata fully.
"Weak." The stone Kou said as he started to walk up to Anata.
"I know that your not Kou, but this is hitting to close to home." Anata said as she pulled another battle cross from the pocket. Allowing it to extend all the way. "Let's just end this so I can get back home and get back to a some what normal life."
"It's not that easy." The Stone Kou said. Then he put him self in to a fighting stance that Anata had seen before. It was the stance that he would go in to right before he would charge in to a battle against a shadow. It was fast and effective.

"Thin if you know me, then you know that I'm not backing down." Anata said as she readied her self for another attack.
"True. You are rather thick. And never know when to quit when you're in over your head." Kou replied.
She waited for Kou to make his move, knowing that if this was Kou from her head. He would for sure do something and not stand around and talk too much. And she was right.

"What?!" Anata asked as she was started to get a bad feeling.
"Just watch." Kou said as he took one hand off the staff and grabbed the cross in Anata's hands. When he did Lightning went shooting out from his in between his fingers as he grasped the cross. Letting go of the cross, Anata took a step back. Thinking fast there as just about only one thing she could do. Clapping her hands together close to her chest, she slowly pulled them apart. As she did a ball of enriched energy formed. Looking up at the cross, she grabbed the ball with one hand. Bring her arm back she threw it right in to the blue sphere of her batter cross.

She remained still, she didn't know if she was dead or she just couldn't move. But as she lay there on the ground she started to remember what had happened when she and her family got back home.

Walking in to the temple, every one stated to go about their normal daily things. Going to her room, Anata flopped on to her futon and rolled on over on to her side and turned on her TV. As she lay there on the bed lessening to the TV, Anata started to think that the program on the TV was some sci-fi show.
"The black sphere or the 'Back Hole' as it's been dubbed. Just reported some two hours ago, the police has blocked off a half mile radius around the 'Black Hole.' And are awaiting local scientists and national scientists to investigate the object. We will up date you as the facts come in."
Not even giving a second thought about what was on the TV and just reached back over and shut the TV off. As she was about to drift off in to a nap, when she heard someone knocking really hard on the front door. Anata didn't want to get up all she did was wait for someone else to answer the door. Then she heard some one answer the door, it was her mother.
"Ryoka?! Goodness why are you out of breath?" Belldandy asked.
"Mrs. Morisato.... I need...... To talk to Anata..... No everyone...." Ryoka said in between breaths.
"Calm down and come in. I'll get Anata." Belldandy said as she welcomed Ryoka in to the temple.
Hearing all the noise in the other room, Anata got up off of her Futon just in time for her mother to open the door. "Anata dear that Ryoka girl is here asking to speak to all of us." Belldandy said.
"Ryoka? What is she doing here?" Anata asked.
Walking out in t the living room, Anata found Ryoka and Kou sitting at the couch. Ryoka was downing a glass of water.
"You must slow down. And catch your breath. Tell us, what is the problem?" Kou said.
"Have any of you been watching the news?" Ryoka asked.
"No, we just got home from a trip." Anata replied.
Ryoka didn't say another word, all she did was get up off the couch and turn on the TV. Anata, Kou, and Belldandy froze in place when they saw what was on the TV screen. Ryoka then turned up the sound so they can hear the news report.
"I know too what this is. Even since Anata had removed the Shadow from me, I still remember the thoughts of that monster. And this is a Gate way to their realm. The shadows are getting to take this world." Ryoka said in an almost ghostly tone.
Hearing the different tone coming from Ryoka every one turned to her to see her eyes were not there deep green, but all black. A black that even covered the whites of her eyes. Belldandy went to Ryoka and started to check up on her.
"Ryoka dear? Ryoka?" Belldandy said.
"Ryoka?" Anata said finally snapping the girl out of her daze.
"What...... Sorry about that, Sid effects. It happens sometimes." Ryoka said as she blinked and the black eyes started go back to her normal green.
Just then the phone started to ring. Walking over to it Kou answered it.
"Hello Morisato residence." Anata said.
"This is Mara, if there's anything in the back yard clear it out." Mara said over the phone.

Just then there was a bright flash of light and a crash. Every one ran to the kitchen to see what it was. When they looked out the window, then saw a smoldering hole in the ground that had cut the front end of Keiichi's car and flattened Anata's Side car to her bike. They both ran to take a closer look at the damage, not even seeing the four demons and Mara standing there in the center of the hole.
"May car!!!!" Keiichi yelled as he started to cry over the remaining half of his car. "I don't think that insurance is going to cover this."
"Forget about the car! My side car, it's flat as a pancake! And I know for sire that insurance will not cover this!!!" Anata cried over the remains of her side car.
"Earthly maturals will be the down fall of the humanity." Mara said.
Hearing her voice, Anata turned to the Demon.
"YOU!!! YOU DID THIS TO MY SIDE CAR!!!!" Anata said as she formed a force bolt.
"MY CAR, THEY DON'T MAKE THOSE ANYMORE!!!" Keiichi said as he rolled up his sleeve to her shirt.
Then a really large demon that was behind Mara grabbed Keiichi by the back of his shirt and lifted him to his level.
"Watch your voice to lady Mara." The demon said.
"YOU DROP MY KEIICHI!" Belldandy yelled as she too had a force bolt in her hand. And with Kou ready with his staff in hand.
Every one was at a stand off.
"Relax, we were sent here." Mara said as she walked up to Belldandy. "Hild sent us here, now tell Anata to put away the force bolt and you man to stop crying over his car."
In side the house, in the living room. Ryoka watched the news. Then the screen started to do some funny things. Leaning closer to get a better look, Just then someone's face came on to the screen that was not part of the news brad cast.

"I like coming through a bath, the water is always so warm." Ichigo said.
"No kidding, not coming through a freezing fountain." Koishi said agreeing with her twin sister.
Out side, Kou lowered his guard, when he felt his friend's presents. "Lady Belldandy do you feel that?" Kou asked.
"I do, there are four from Yggdrasil here." Belldandy replied.
The twins walked out from the bath room and in to the living room where Ryoka was still asking Hara why he's in the TV.
"And why are you in there?" Ryoka asked.
"This is how I travel between the worlds. You know I've read your file, for someone that has been taken over by a shadow, you know vary little." Hara said with a matter of fact tone.
"Why are you still in there?" Delenn asked as she walked up to the TV and took the remote from Ryoka. "Here I'll get you out of there."
Turning the contrast all the way up on the TV, Hara came through the TV screen landing on top of Ryoka. "Excuse me." Hara said.
"Are you turning in to a pervert?" Koishi asked.
"No! She just didn't move out of the way." Hara said as he quickly moved to his feet.
"What the Hell are all of you doing here?"
Everyone turned around to see Kou standing there at the door.
"Kou!" Delenn yelled as she ran to give Kou a hug.
"I missed you too, but why are you here?" Kou asked again.
"Peorth sent us here to make sure that there is a big enough space here." Ichigo answered.
Just then Mara walked in after Anata and Belldandy went to see who was there from Yggdrasil.
"Well, Well? Is this the best Yggdrasil has to offer? If that's the case we're in trouble." Mara said as she took a good look at the four students from Yggdrasil.
"Peorth sent us because we work well together." Koichi said as she marched up to get right in to Mara's face.
"May I ask why are the four of you here?" Belldandy said as she lightly moved Mara to the side.
"Oh Right!" Ichigo said snapping her fingers. "We are to tell you to make sure that there is a big enough space for the Troops."
"Troops?" Belldandy asked.
"Yggdrasil is sending the defenders of the heavens here to earth. Because..... Well you know." Hara said as he pointed at the TV.
Just then every one looked at the TV just in time to hear the news on the TV.
= = = = = = = = = The news = = = = = = =
"The Defense forces and scientists have just arrived. The defense forces have just extended the quarantine area to a full mile. And here are the scientists are the ones in the yellow." The man in the news helicopter reported as the helicopter circled over the gate. The camera zoomed in to the three men that were walking up to the gate in radiation suits.
"The scientists have radiation suits on just in case, I hear that their checking for any thing that may be harmful to the people of Nekomi.... Not they look like their going to probe it with something......" Just then three bolts of lightning shot out of the gate each one hitting a scientist. Turning them to a skillation and dust.
"That the Hell!!!!" the man in the helicopter said then the camera cough flash of light and there was nothing but static.
= = = = = = = = End the news = = = = = = =
Every one stood there in shock, Anata snapped out of her shock and ran to the closet and grabbed her helmet for bike and ran past her mother.
"Anata wait!!!!" Belldandy yelled.
But Anata didn't hear a word her mother said. Getting on to her bike she kicked off the arm that connected the side car to her bike. And started up her bike. Belldandy ran as fast as she could to her daughter to stop her, but Anata whipped her bike around and sped out of the back yard, tarring up the yard as she did.
"Anata!!!!!!" Belldandy yelled again.
"Anata?" Kou said to him self.
Anata speeded through the city streets, passing cars at break neck speeds. As she came up to an intersection, Anata watched in horror as a scimi truck pulled out in to the middle of the intersection. Her eyes went wide. Dropping back down to lower gears, and locked up the back wheel. Skidding to a stop and Anata took a deep breath. And lifted up her visor.
"Move the Hell out of the way!!!!!" Anata yelled at the truck driver.
"Watch it you punk!" The truck driver yelled back at Anata.
Getting mad, Anata slammed the visor back down and put her bike back in to gear. Pushing it back, Anata pulled away from the truck at a vary high speed. As she approached the park where the 'black hole' was at she could feel the fear of the defense forces. She came to the edge of the park just in time to hear the canon fire from the tanks. Then as she got closer she saw the flash of light. Anata skidded to a stop. Putting the kick stand down, Anata got off of her bike and ran to the sight, forgetting to take off the helmet. When she came edge of the quarantine area, Anata stopped dead in her tracks. It was something that she had never seen before. There was the burned out shells of the tanks with the burned bodies of the troops that made up the forces. She walked passed and walked the whole mile to the 'Black Hole'. When she reached it she stopped and removed her helmet, letting her long black loose. Shaking her head she glared at the 'Black Hole' and pointed.
"I know who you are, and hear this. I, Anata Morisato will avenge these people who you have killed. Be prepared. For when I return, it will be the end of you and your kind." Anata said and turned her back to the gate and walked back to her bike.
= = = = = = = Flash back to the present = = = = = = =
Remembering her promise, Anata snapped back to reality. Her hand grasped the ground and she started to slowly started to push her self back up.
"I, Anata Morisato. Will defeat you... And your kind..." Anata said as she slowly stood to her feet.
Looking ahead, Anata saw what looked like a stone temple. And started to limp to that place, something was calling her. She didn't know nor understand what that calling was. Anata walked on to that feeling she had.
Meanwhile out side at Earth. The battle raged one.
"SKULD MEGA CANON, MARK THREE!!!! FIRE!!!!!!" Skuld yelled as she pointed at her target and the canon fire blasted behind and over her.
Watching as a line of explosions going off several hundred yards ahead of her, Skuld watches as a young Demon runs up past her right to Hild, who was standing atop of a platform with Kami.
"My Lady, Our scouts report that the shadows are retreating. They seem to be withdrawing to the gate." The young demon stated.
"Cary good, tell our forces to keep on them. But do not approach the gate." Held reported.
Kami standing next to her looked over to Hara. "Do the same, tell our forces to circle the gate and make sure no more shadows comes out of it."
Hild then turns to Kami. "Oh how I some times miss the days where our forces would fight it out just about every hundred years. It excites me is more ways then one." Hild said.
Then there was this odd silence between her and Kami. Then Hild looks over at Kami. "Like I said. It excites me in more ways then one." Hild said in a low tone.
Kami being a man, and some times us men are a little thick. Kami stood there thinking what she met by 'in more ways then one.' Then it hit him.
"What???? Not now. We have to do this first then we can do that." Kami said as he was making sure that no one was around to over hear them talking.
Hild then whispers in to Kami's ear. "When it's over then, I got a new whip."
Kami then looks around to see his troops. "COME ON GET A MOVE ON!!! WE... Umm I HAVE THINGS TO DO!!!!!"
Meanwhile in at the temple, Belldandy was given the task of healing both those from Yggdrasil and Demons. The halls of the temple and bedrooms were filled with the hurt. Belldandy was ordered to do this early in the battle, by Kami not only as her father but as God. Keiichi saw also told to do so. Kami just didn't want any thing to happen to his granddaughter's parents.
~*~*~*~*~* Flashback two hours ago ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"But Father?" Belldandy protested.
"Belldandy that is what I said and I expect you to do so. I am your father and you God." Kami rebutted.
"Pulling the 'I'm your god' Line again, you haven't said that line to any of your daughter's in a vary long time. And it may have worked when we were children, but not now." Belldandy said almost to the point of yelling.
"Then why have you not have Skuld stay here also?" Belldandy asked.
"Skuld is setting up her.. (Looks out side to see Skuld setting up her mega canon, and then back at Belldandy.) What ever the heck that things is. Several hundred yards away from the front lines, you and Keiichi are asking to be right there on the main front. And I will have Anata coming home to two loving parents." Kami answered.
"And Urd?" Belldandy asked.
"Urd is Urd. She can hold her own during a fight. And right now I need you here. Please do that for me?" Kami asked placing his hand on to Belldandy's shoulder.
Keiichi stood there not sure if he wanted to say anything. Then he remembered him self saying telling Belldandy a long time ago just before he and Belldandy got to the judgment gate. He has said to Belldandy that if the gods wanted to go to war, he would remain by her side no matter what. And this seemed to fall in to that category.
"Belldandy, what do you need me to do? Just tell me and I'll see to it that it gets done." Keiichi said making her look up at him.
Belldandy only smiled.
"See, Keiichi here will help you. Now I must go." Kami said, just as the phone started to ring.
Answering it, Kami looked over at Belldandy and nodded. "I'll tell her." Kami said then he hung the phone back up.
"That was Peorth; they've been keeping close tabs on Anata's reactors. All four just dropped to .25%. But they have started to power back up." Kami said to Keiichi and Belldandy.
"Is Anata alright?!" Keiichi asked before Belldandy could draw any breath to ask the same question.
"As long as one of the reactors have the smallest amount of power she will be alright. But Peorth fears that Anata may be pushing her self to hard." Kami said.
Belldandy froze in place, she knew that Anata was stubborn and would finish what she started.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* End two hour flashback ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"My Lady? Lady Belldandy?" An older god said as he watched her sit their in a daze, with all the commotion going on around her.
Snapping out of her daze, Belldandy looked over at the older God. "Sorry about that. I'm just thinking about my daughter. Here you go, have some water." Belldandy said as she handed the glass of water to the older god.
"My lady, I am one of Anata's instructors. And she is one of my best students. I know that she will come through this all right." The older God said. And some how it made Belldandy feel somewhat better.
In the shadow realm, she walked on towards the Temple like rock formation. Her breaths where becoming long and shallow. Beaten and badly hurt, Anata walked on with a broken rib from her fight with the stone look alike of Kou. Her long black hair is now a gray ash color, from the ash and dirt on the ground. Stopping, Anata grabbed the side of her chest where the broken rib is at. It stung; it was a pain that she had never felt before. She had never had any broken bones before this. Starting walking again, she pushed her self more and more.
