Chapter 6: Celestial Warrior Quest.
Yuko stared back at the four gods, confusion riddled her features.
"I'm sorry, don't think I heard correctly. Can you please repeat that last sentence," asked Yuko politly.
"We are the four gods," replied Genbu giving off a slightly question look.
Yuko visible pale till her skin looked paper white, tears started to spring to her eyes. The four gods looked back at her in shock and panic. They didn't know what to do with a crying girl, much less a teenager.
"What did I'd do? Did I do something wrong? Does this have to do with that Sytou guy?" sniffed Yuko trying to hold back the tears.
"You've done nothing wrong," jumped in Byyako trying to make the girl stop crying, as he went next to her and patted her on the back unsurly.
"Then why am I here. It must be serious if it's got the attention of a few Gods," stated Yuko looking into the golden eyes of Byyako.
"Who are you? Where do you come from? And most importantly why are you here?"
Yuko looked up to the one called Seiryu. He didn't look happy as he looked down on her the way Brad did. Yuko involuntary started shaking as the memories of Brad took hold of all her common sense. Yuko sat down, squeezing her knees to her chest.
"My name Yuko Sasuna, I'm from Eagle Utah, and I don't why I'm here," answered Yuko forcing the tears to disappear.
Suzaku looked between Yuko and Seiryu. After a while a while he went up to Yuko and look down at her gently, a kind smile framed his delicate face.
"You'll have to forgive lizard boy over there, but you have to tell us if there is anything that might help," said Suzaku gently to Yuko. Yuko looked to where Seiryu was and gave a huge sweat drop as she watched Genbu and Byyako hold Seiryu down as he tried desperately to reach Suzaku.
"… I met this one guy at the entrance of this world. He said I was destined to come here, but he didn't say or know what the purpose of it was," said Yuko to the others.
The four gods instantly stopped whatever they were doing and looked at each other in confusion and shock.
"What did he look like," asked Genbu quietly.
"Let's see um, he was tall, he had ice blue eyes, black hair, pale skin, he wore black clothes with ice blue lining, and he had a black dragon on his shoulder. He told me that he was protecting me from his masters sight," confirmed Yuko obediantly.
"I see, did you catch the masters name," asked Seiryu in seriousness.
"No he didn't say, at least not that I can recall."
"Well whatever the reason of your being here it has something to do with our warriors," said Byyako as he helped Yuko up.
The gods looked up at each other than as if they were deciding something amongst themselves, they nodded. Then as if they decided they looked down at Yuko in friendly expression.
"We have decided that aren't a threat here, but we still don't have a grasp on what's going on," replied Genbu at last.
"That being the case, Yuko Sasuna. You will go out and find all of our celestial warriors. Then we will figure out what to do next," said Suzaku, a look of seriousness change his gentle features.
"How will I find them?" question Yuko, in slight concern. Genbu was the first to step up. An anklet appeared in his hand, he bent down and put on Yuko's ankle. Byyako stepped up next and touched the hair tie in Yuko's hair. It transformed beneath his fingers. Seiryu came after Byyako was done. He roughly grabbed Yuko's arm, pulled off the glove, slipped on a ring then, just as roughly put the glove back on. Suzaku came up next, and he smiled sweetly as he handed Yuko a scroll.
"You've already found all of my warriors but just in case they lose you, this can be useful," said Suzaku handing over the scroll, but Yuko still looked confused.
"They objects we have given you, contain a small amount of our power the warriors and priestesses will be drawn to them and each object will give you power from each god. That and the warriors will protect you," explained Suzaku
"… Thank you," replied Yuko quietly.
The four gods just sighed heavily and said one last thing before they and Yuko disappeared.
"Farewell, and good luck."
Mean while
"Has she woken up yet," asked Miaka to a nearby Lai Lai.
"Nope, but Tia Yi-Jun says she'll wake up soon," said the Lai Lai.
"Really."
Miaka looked behind her to see. Tasuki, Chichiri, and Tamahome were stand right behind Miaka.
"Can we see her," asked Chichiri.
"Sure," answered the Lai Lai.
After the little walk the group finally reached Yuko's room. As quietly as they could they slipped into the room. Yuko laid sleeping on the bed in the center of the room, she was glowing different colors. When Yuko stepped out of the portal she had been glowing and was asleep. Tia Yi-Jun explained that the four gods were speaking to her soul.
"She looks peaceful," committed Tasuki as he came in to look closer look.
'SMACK!'
Yuko's fist implanted itself into Tasuki's face. The other sweat dropped as the fist slowly went down, a huge indented handprint was marked into his face.
"Ow… That's it I'm not going anywhere near this girl again," relied Tasuki sounding like he was in total pain.
Yuko slowly opened her eyes to see an injured Tasuki, Chichiri, Tamahome, and Miaka. Still not truly awake Yuko muttered one thing as the glowing began to disperse.
"I understand. I'll find them don't worry."
"Yuko you okay?" asked Miaka worriedly
Yuko was now full awake. She lifted herself up to a sitting position before she answered.
"Miaka right? I'm okay," replied Yuko to Miaka, then she saw Tasuki and his quickly swelling face. "Oh that looks terrible. Are you okay? You should have someone look at that." The other either just laughed or looked nervously between the two as Tasuki glared at Yuko.
"So Yuko what did Suzaku say," asked Chichiri.
"A lot of stuff, but he and the other gods gave me one order," replied Yuko turning very serious quickly. " I must find the other gods Celestial Warriors."
