So, I plan on continuing this story for quite a bit. I'm not sure up to what point, but either way, enjoy!

Fujin's POV:

It has been almost two years since Teoitotia was driven insane. She was now 39 years old. Ever since three months ago, she had stopped talking and moving. She could only move her head and eyes. I knew she was slipping and I was ready to die with her. My body didn't need food and I kept on taking my required time in the Jinsei, but mentally, I was deep in my depression. There was peace in Earthrealm, so that was good...I guess. When I wasn't with my love, I was training and I knew that my technique was failing. I have been trying to hold on, but it's been so long and my love will last for possibly at least one more year. At least, that was what her ancestors calculated. I had just finished my patrolling duties and on my way to Tliltetepetl.

Unknown POV:

It was broken. Sadness. Suffering on both ends.

No more...

No one was watching.

Melt. Reshape. Nothing else could fix it.

Fujin's POV:

I met Teoitotia's mothers outside the small building she built. She was sick. Once Teoitotia was gone, I knew she would follow. Perhaps even her mother too. All four of us would go...

"How is she?" I asked.

"Same as always," she responded in sadness. She bowed her head and excused herself. She shifted into a bird and I saw as she flew away.

Then, I heard a familiar gasp from behind me. I rapidly stepped inside the room with shock and confusion to see my love partially sitting up, trying to breath.

Teoitotia's POV:

Breathe. Breathe. I coughed and rapidly blinked, trying to register my surroundings. I noticed warm, familiar hands on my cheeks once I stopped coughing. I put a hand over one of them and looked up at soft, white eyes. My eyes softened. "Fujin?"

His own eyes expressed sadness, shock, and relief at the same time. "My love-" He cut himself off and pulled me in for a hug. I was confused... He let me go after a few seconds. I saw tears and confusion on his face. "How is this possible?" He checked the rest of me for anything odd.

"I don't- What- Where am I?"

"A bit away from Tlitetepetl. Your...fine? The bond snapped back into place. I can feel you. You feel whole...like before..."

"Havik! Where is he?"

"We dealt with him."

"How? What happened? When was I saved?"

I felt his sadness. "I saved you almost two years ago. What's the last thing you remember?"

I blinked and thought. "I fell into the portal, was strapped onto something hard. A wall? Havik approached me, then nothing."

"You remember nothing else beyond that?"

Confusion took over my face. "What do you mean? I don't remember anything after that. What happened?"

He let go of my face and grabbed one of my hands. He hung his head as he spoke with sorrow, "Havik must have used that spirit-breaker technique on you again. I went for you when we attacked Chaosrealm. It wasn't until later that your ancestors found out that you were already...broken. I struggled to stay sane for two years." He looked up at me with tears. "I was ready to die multiple times. I felt hollow. If that was how it felt when you were in your state, I can only imagine how it was going to feel when you disappeared from existence." He leaned forward to hug me again, nuzzling his face in my neck. I hugged him back.

I nuzzled my head into his own and broke the silence, "My love." He let me go and I wiped his tears. Then I grabbed his face in my hands and pulled him in for a kiss, which he eagerly returned.

He broke our session off to ask, "How though? How are you...whole? We tried to fix your spirit, but we were not strong enough. We tried a few things, but nothing worked. How are you whole?"

"I...don't know."

We turned our heads to the doorway as we heard thunder. In came Raiden, Kojin, and Sarutahiko, concerned.

"Welcome back," said Raiden.

"Thank you...?"

Sarutahiko approached me and examined me. "How are you feeling? You seem...whole. How?"

Raiden asked Fujin, "Did you feel anything nearby? Or were you too...distracted?"

Fujin stood up and responded. "I didn't feel any presence nearby. Nothing unusual anyway. I thoroughly scanned the area. There was nothing."

"Strange indeed," Kojin said suspiciously.

"No spell caused this. I would have been able to tell. Magic is out of the question," Fujin stated.

"And no one was here," stated Raiden. He turned to me. "Did you feel anything?"

I responded, "No. I felt nothing and then I couldn't breathe normally."

The Spirit of the Earth turned to me in deep thought. "It was not your own doing. If you could have healed yourself, you would have done so almost immediately. Someone, or something, had to have done this."

I looked at all of them in silence and thinking about what could have fixed me. My stomach growled and I froze in embarrassment.

"You should eat. We'll leave you in peace," Raiden said as the other followed him out the door. "You should rest." He bowed again in welcome and walked out.

"Take it easy," warned Sarutahiko before he walked out.

"Yes. Take it easy," said Kojin and Fujin narrowed his eyes at him. Then he left.

Fujin and I were alone. He turned to me. "You should eat and bathe."

"Definitely."

...

I tore down the building I was kept in. Then I ate and bathed. After that, I went to greet my family, who were beyond overjoyed, but also very suspicious as to what could have saved me. But they too, left me alone to rest. Once Fujin and I were in our home, he transferred my ancestors back to me. I finished cleaning my teeth and I stopped at the entrance of our room to remove my sandals. Fujin was lying on our petlatl, hands behind his head and only wearing pants. I walked in and removed my cloak, leaving it on a stool. Fujin sat up and I sat down across from him. We leaned in for a kiss that expressed how much we missed each other. I eventually pulled back but kept our foreheads touching. I felt arousal coming from him.

I whispered, "How did you survive two years without me? Didn't you do it at least one time?" I knew that he knew what I meant.

"I was...depressed," he whispered with sadness.

I kissed him again in comfort, then he asked, "Don't you want to sleep?"

"I've slept for long enough," I said with determination and leaned in to kiss him again.

I moved to remove my loincloth as he went on to remove his own garments. I inched forward and he leaned back. I climbed on top of him and he went on his back. We kissed in a fury and ran our hands all over each other. I broke off our kissing and moved my head to kiss his neck. I went lower to his chest, and as I moved down his abdomen, I ran my hands down his arms. I stopped a bit below his belly button and put my tongue there. I slowly moved my tongue up to his chest. He shivered at the sensation. I went back up to capture his lips. I grabbed his head as our kissing turned very passionate. He put his arm behind my back to support me as he flipped us around. Once I was on my back, he reached a hand between his legs as I moved down do kiss his lower jaw. My hips jerked up as he pressed his erection on my entrance. I stopped kissing him and looked down between us. He did the same and moved his hips forward to enter me. Once the tip was in, I grabbed onto his biceps and we both groaned. He slowly moved deeper into me and I threw my head back with a sigh. He was panting in anticipation. When he was fully in me, I clenched my walls and he moaned. He moved down to kiss my neck. I grabbed his head and hooked my ankles together. He moved back up to capture my lips and started rocking back and forth, not exactly thrusting. We stopped kissing and touched our foreheads together. He pulled his hips back and thrusted back into me. After repeating the motion again, he looked into my eyes as he pulled back. Then he thrusted harshly back in with force so my body shook. I softly moaned. He continued to thrust slowly and with force. I put my hands on the sides of his face and we made eyes contact. I made him watch as my eyes glowed and whispered, "More." He didn't need to be told twice and went faster. He lost a bit of force behind his thrusts, but immediately recovered. The next time he thrusted harder and we both grunted. I wrapped my arms around his neck to show him I was ready. He grabbed onto me and started thrusting harder. Dissatisfied, he moved his hands down to grab my hips. Then he started thrusting faster, pulling my hips to him in time with his thrusts. He grunted and I groaned when our hips met. I felt my juices run down my core and the next time he thrusted into me, there was a wet slapping sound. I moaned and that encouraged him to go harder, but slower. I don't know if it was me, but I felt him thicker than before. I felt his hand brush my lower abdomen and then he put his thumb on my clit, softly pressing down. I whimpered and threw my head back. I unhooked my legs and spread them apart. He hooked his arms under my knees and put his hands on the bed. He never did that before. I saw from the corner of my eye as he gripped the rug below us. I see. I put a hand on cheek. "Let go." He looked into my eyes with uncertainty. I nodded and he started pounding into me. Shocked, I moaned louder and threw my head back as I felt him deeper in me. I curled my toes. He continued his harsh and rapid pace as I cried out in pleasure whenever he hit my sweet spot. He lifted his head to look straight ahead, closed his eyes, and grunted as he focused on his pleasure. He was very generous whenever we had sex, but since he's been feeling down for these two years (and I haven't exactly been conscious), it's the least I could do. "Faster," I panted. He eagerly did as I said. He moved a hand to rub my clit and I whimpered. I knew he was close. I looked between us and saw some white on his cock as he thrusted out of me. That turned me on and I felt myself getting wetter. I looked up at him and saw him looking down at me. I grabbed his hand that was rubbing my clit, down to where we were joined. He looked down and thrusted harder, growling. He went back to rubbing my clit harshly and I tilted my head back as I approached my climax, panting. Not long after that, I arched my back and moaned as I came. I felt my walls clenching on him as he came right behind me. His thrusts slowed down drastically to a stop as he shot his seed into me. We were panting like crazy. He eventually let my legs go. Normally, we would go another round, but I was tired. He pulled out and moved to lie down next to me. I sat up to grab our blanket and put it over us. He went on his side and pulled me into him so he could kiss me. You have no idea how much I missed you, he said. I kissed his lower jaw. I think I do. We quickly fell asleep.

...

When I woke up, I had my head resting on his chest and an arm over him. I looked up and saw him asleep. He seemed happier (It could have been the sex or that I was back, who knows? Maybe both?). I reached up a hand to move some hair from his face. I saw his eyes move underneath his eyelids and I lifted my head to kiss his chest and run my hand over his abdomen. I looked up and saw him blinking a few times, trying to wake up completely. I looked down and saw the tent in our blanket that confirmed that he was at least semi-hard, so I reached down and grabbed his growing rod. His hips bucked and I tilted my head up to kiss his lower jaw. I squeezed his cock and started to slowly pump it. I nuzzled my face in his neck and heard him starting to softly pant. Not long after that, I started to pick up the pace. His hips jerked up and he grabbed my wrist to stop me. I looked up and withdrew my hand as he kissed me. He went on his side, removed the blanket, and started to move so he could be on top. I leaned back and before he could go in between my legs, I went on my stomach. He was on all fours and I felt him run a hand down my side as he kissed my shoulder up to my neck. I grabbed what served as my pillow and put it underneath my hips so they were off the ground. Not wasting any time, he lowered his body so he could line up the tip of his erection with my entrance. I helped him by lifting my hips up higher than they already were. He slowly thrusted his hips forward and we moaned at the sensation. Eager, I moved my hips back and in response, he slightly pulled out and then thrusted hard back in. I lowered my head and moaned. I felt his chest on my back as he put a bit of his weight on me and started thrusting at a relatively fast pace. We kept going at it for a while. Then, I felt his weight shift and saw it go on his left forearm. He turned a bit on his side and I felt a hand go between my legs. He hooked a finger to put pressure on my clitoral hood. I cried in pleasure and surprise, moving my hips away from his hand, but he forced his hips down so he could rub my clit in circles. I immediately started squirming and moving my hips in circles while whimpering. When I whimpered his name, he put his lips in between my shoulder and neck as he started to rubbed faster. Not long after, I moaned/whimpered as I came and felt more wetness rushed down my core. He started thrusting slowly. He removed his hand and slightly lifted himself off of me. I tucked in my arms, ready for what he was about to do. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him dig his fingers into the rug. I felt him pull back and thrust hard into me. I grunted and heard our skin slap together. With a newfound fire, he set a fast rhythm. It didn't last long and he put all his force into his thrusts, grunting. He continued to do so as I grunted with him. Unexpectedly, he thrusted down at and angle so the area around my clit felt pressure against the cloth below my hips. I cried out in pleasure and felt myself get more wet. He took his action into account and continued thrusting at that angle. He abandoned a bit of force for speed and my pleasure increased. I reached out to grab onto his wrists as I felt myself get closer to my climax. He tried something else and thrusted extremely hard into me. My clit felt all the pressure of my weight and I moaned, "Fujin." He did it again and I moaned. The next time he did it, I arched my back and my walls rhythmically clenched onto him. It was enough for him, so he thrusted his hips forward and came with a moan. We didn't move, panting as we recovered.

He started to kiss my shoulders and moved around to different areas. After a while, he moved off of me and lied on his side next to me. I moved closer to him. He immediately pulled me in for a kiss. From here on out, we will be trying to get back to our normal routine.

...

It was barely dawn and after we showered, Fujin went back to the Sky Temple. I was walking up a mountain. The Spirits did not know who healed me, but I had a clue. I could be wrong, but I couldn't think of anyone else who could have. Finally, I reached the top. I lit some incense and ritualistically offered it to the four cardinal directions. Then, I set it down and stood back from it. I closed my eyes, put my hands together with my palms up, and lifted them to the sky, offering my thanks. I opened my eyes and put my hands down. I grabbed my maraca and closed my eyes. I started tapping my foot and thought about the appropriate song. Once I got to the right part, I started to dance around the incense and shook my maraca until I reached the end of the song. I then set down the maraca and got on my knees, looking at the sky. I offered up my incense in gratitude and put it back down. Then I set my hands on the ground and got down to chant. My morning meditation would be next...

... ... ... ... ...

Five Months Later...

I've been doing my new morning offering everyday and will continue to do so for the next three months (sets of 8 were important). Fujin and I have just arrived at the Sky Temple, it was nighttime. We walked into the Jinsei chamber and saw Raiden talking with Kojin.

Kojin smiled. "Good evening, Teoitotia. Brother-in-arms."

Raiden bowed his head. "Good evening."

I bowed my head at both of them and turned to Kojin. "I have always been wondering; Why do you call each other 'brother-in-arms?' Are you all not simply brothers?"

Raiden looked confused and Kojin raised an eyebrow. I felt Fujin's confusion at my question. Kojin told me, "Well, we're not necessarily brothers in the usual sense."

Now I was confused. "But, you all actually are."

Fujin said, "We were never born and we have no parents."

My confusion increased. "Born? Maybe not in the normal sense, but you do come from the same being."

Raiden asked, "Where is your information coming from?"

Sarutahiko walked in and greeted us. We merely bowed our heads in acknowledgement. "Our legends," I responded.

Sarutahiko went to ask Kojin what we were talking about. Fujin said, "But that is all they are; legends." He moved to the other side so it was basically them versus me.

"But legends are based off of some version of the truth."

Sarutahiko joined the conversation, "We are not blood brothers. If we were, don't you think there would be similarities in body and spirit?"

I responded, "Even in shinto, Raiden and Fujin are brothers."

"But that is all they are; legends. Myths," he responded.

"I repeat one of my previous statements."

Raiden asked, "Then what are the other beings in your pantheon?"

"First, we do not recognize all of those in the Mexica (Aztec) pantheon. This is based off of our beliefs. Most of them are manifestations of your current selves. Some have more than others. Fujin is Ehecatl for the most part because of his human form and emphasis on the wind aspect. When he is being analytical, philosophical, and such, he becomes Quetzalcoatl, even though he does not necessarily change forms. The same can be said for the rest of you. However, there are other Spirits we recognize that are not here. Some of those Spirits are your siblings. Take Argus for example; he exists and is a Spirit, but he does not represent anything in Earthrealm for the things he does represent, do not exist here."

Sarutahiko asked, "You say other siblings. What siblings?"

"The sun and stars. The moon and other moons. Death."

"And where are they?"

I blinked. "I-don't know."

"Boom," said Kojin in victory.

"Just because I don't know where they are does not mean that I lost," I noted.

"We are not blood brothers," claimed Raiden. The others verbally agreed.

I ran my hand over my hair and breathed out heavily, yet quietly. "I-" I felt something faint and turned around, semi-alert. Nothing. I tried sensing any other unusual spirits nearby. Nothing.

I heard Raiden ask, "Is everything alright, Teoitotia?"

Fujin asked, Is there something wrong?

There silence and then I turned to them. "You don't sense that?"

Kojin asked, "Sense what? A spirit of sorts?"

I felt it again and started turning, trying to pinpoint where it was.

"Is everything alright?" asked Fujin.

I had my back to them and looked at the Jinsei chamber's doors. Then, it happened so fast: What I felt before, was amplified. The hairs on my neck rose and I shivered. I've never felt anything like it and I can only make assumptions. I dropped to the floor, kneeling and sitting on my legs while my face was barely hovering above the ground. My hands were on the ground on either sides of my face with my elbows pointing down. My eyes were closed and I was slightly shivering.

Fujin's POV:

I took a step forward, concerned at what she was feeling; fear, anxiety, nervousness, submission. I started, "What's-," but I cut off my sentence as I saw the beings suddenly in front of her, by the Jinsei's doors. There was a deafening silence. I knew the others were shocked, being caught off guard with the sudden presence of a man and a woman.

The man was white skinned while the woman was brown were both wearing skirts that went down to their ankles and long, circular quechquemimeh that went down to their waists with white strings at the ends. The man's skirt was black and his top was white. The woman had the colors switched. They had wristbands matching the same color as their skirts and jade necklaces of sphere beads. They both had long, loose, white hair that went down a bit past their shoulders. They were also barefoot. Finally, their irises were black.

The man said, "Hello my children." The woman said, "It's been a long time."

What.

Teoitotia's POV:

I was shocked and slightly trembling at their presence. I was right. I opened my eyes and the woman crouched down and put a hand on my back. I froze.

She said in a pleasant voice, "It is nice to finally meet you Teoitotia."

I responded in a firm, but submissive voice, "It is the greatest privilege to be in your presence, my Lady and Lord."

The man said, "Up now. We are essentially family are we not?" The woman stood up.

I responded, "As your lordship desires." I stood up on shaky legs and bowed deeply. "I beg my Lord and Lady to forgive me for my lack of formal wear."

He assured me, "There is nothing to forgive. We knew the time we would come here, of course." The woman continued, "Now child, there is no need to keep on thanking us. We understand."

"As my Lady and Lord desire." I felt like I was about to faint. I straightened out my body but kept my head as low as I could do so.

The couple moved past me and Raiden asked, "Who are you?"

The man started, "We are known by many names just as you all are. Cronus and Rhea." The woman continued, "Izanagi and Izanami or as Teoitotia would collectively know us; Ometeotl."

I felt Fujin's shock and could safely assume that the other felt the same. Fujin asked, "What does this mean?"

The woman started, "You were all talking about family were you not?" The man finished, "The only non-teotzin here was right. We are your parents, so to speak."

Sarutahiko asked, "But we were created in the heavens."

The man responded, "That is a mere lie. You were born, but you were also not. Either way, you all come from us."

Kojin asked, "What about the others? And these siblings?"

The woman responded, "Not all are our children. You do have a few siblings that sacrificed themselves. The stars, the moons, and death. The other teotzin are children of others. Your spirits may feel vastly different and you all looked different, but you are all siblings, do not forget that."

Raiden asked, "What are you both exactly?"

The man said, "Eternal spirits. Titans. We exist in a realm, so to speak, no one else can access, but our siblings and us. They too, are essential for the entire cosmos." The woman spoke, "Teoitotia."

I quickly turned and bowed slightly saying, "Yes my Lady and Lord."

She said, "Please, come tell your legends up to the era of the five suns."

I quickly agreed, "Yes my Lady and Lord." I straightened up, but kept my gaze down. "In the beginning, it is said that there was nothing. Then, a being willed itself into existence; Our Lord and Lady of Sustenance. The Lord and Lady of Duality. They first had four sons; the four Tezcatlipocas. Later on, they had a few more. Their children were beings that inherited some of their traits, but the rest of them were unique to them. Their children represented the energies surrounding their respective elements." I swallowed.

The woman told her children, "For the most part, that was correct, but as we said before, we are not the only titans. Now, for a few millennia, you were all with us in our own realm. One of our siblings forced certain things to happen. Eventually, Fujin and Sarutahiko decided to create a world from a being, who was one of our malevolent brothers. The equivalent would be the Nahua's earth monster. The others joined, but to do so, you all needed to change shape to interact with this world. The heavens were created and to jump to this world, it required all of your deaths. That was exactly what you all did."

The man picked up where she left off, "One of our siblings, who was able to take a unique form, forced the rest of us to make you all forget about your earlier lives. That sibling already had children of their own, but they were modified, and that sibling even created other beings almost just as strong. We didn't want to make you all forget, but you wanted to create a world and our sibling was powerful in their own right. To prevent any harm that could have come to you all, we did as they said. It saddened us. You all went through the trouble to create all of these realms, but they were slowly becoming unstable. There were too many of you, so sacrifices had to be made. Some of them being the stars, moons, and death. They became one with the universe. Yet, the realms were still unstable, so you all sacrificed yourself one last time. This time, you reformed in the heavens and had forgotten about what you all had previously done, as was your nature. You all know the story from there."

The woman, with sorrow said, "Our poor children lost their home and were now forced to serve."

Raiden quickly asked, "Serve whom?"

The main said, "We cannot say. But we are not here for the past, but the present and future. Fujin, whether you believe us or not, we were there at your union with this one." I assume he pointed at me. "At least, we saw it all." I thought, Oh dear ancestors, I hope they were only there for the ceremony. The woman turned to me, "Teoitotia, have you ever wondered why you are the way you are?" I blinked and she continued, "A strong spirit that rivals the power of our own children in some respects. Male and female. Good and no-good, as you say, in extreme ways." My heart was pounding.

I responded, "I thought that my being was just traits inherited from my parents."

The man put a hand on my shoulder and told me, "For the most part, yes, but we partially changed a few aspects, which is why you are similar to us in those respects." He let me go and Ometeotl turned to their children. "But these are not the reasons we are here. We are running out of time and must leave very soon. A conflict approaches. Trust only yourselves. That is all we can say." They walked back to where they were when they arrived and I turned to face them, head still down. The woman told us all, "Do not speak of us at all. Dangerous things can occur. The only knowledge that you can speak of is the fact that you are all brothers, nothing more. Teoitotia."

I bowed. "Yes my Lady."

She put a hand under my chin and lifted my head up so I could look into her dark eyes. "Thank you for making my boy happy."

I would say that it was my pleasure, but that would have been highly inappropriate. My face became red with embarrassment and I felt the same emotion from Fujin.

The man added, "And for lighting up all of their moods."

The woman removed her hand and I looked down. "Of course, Tloque Nahuaque." (Tl-oh-keh Nah-wa-keh)

They backed up and went to their previous positions. Fujin, Raiden, Kojin, and Sarutahiko came up from behind me so we were formed in a line. They put their hands together and bowed in respect. I bowed a little deeper.

Together, Ometeotl said, "Never forget my children, we love you. Dancing Spirit, keep on dancing."

Then silence. We stopped bowing and I felt relief. We continued looking at the chamber's doors. Fujin put an arm underneath my forearm closest to him. Breathe, my love, he reminded me. I didn't notice that my legs were shaking and that I was trembling.

Kojin said, "Well, I'll be. You were right Teoitotia. No longer 'brothers-in-arms,' but just 'brothers.'"

Sarutahiko told me, "I suppose you are our sister-in-law then. I need time, excuse me. Until then." He started to leave.

Kojin said, "Excuse me. Have a good night or morning." He left after Sarutahiko.

It was just Raiden, Fujin, and I in silence. Then Raiden said, "I need time to think. Please excuse me."

"Of course," Fujin responded. I told Raiden, "Have a good night."

Once he left, Fujin joked, "I suppose I should never doubt you anymore." I moved to sit down on the ground. He asked me, "Are you alright my love?"

I let out a shaky breath. I told him, Just shocked. Isn't it always scary to meet the in-laws? He chuckled and I continued, Their essence; extremely chaotic, but very orderly. I've never felt anything like it.

I've felt them. They seem very different from us.

At least you can tolerate their essence.

Are you sure you're alright, my love?

Fine. Go into the Jinsei. "I'll be in Tliltetepetl."

I moved to stand up, recovered. Fujin stood up with me. We looked at each other and he pulled me into him to kiss me. I returned his efforts and put a hand on his cheek. We stopped kissing and just stood there, in each others arms. He told me, "We'll speak of this further later."

"Mhm."

We let go of each other and went about our own ways.

Thanks for reading! I appreciate any feedback!
