Sorry I couldn't send this to you, PinkBlakeWhite! I was eager to up it up. 3

Chapter 4: Finally!

Akihiko was exited. Right now, with the help of Hiroki and Nowaki, they were on their way to Amaterasu with the pot filled with water. Once they got to the temple, she looked up from her spot and smiled wide.

"You're done now! Congratz!" Amaterasu cheered as she took the pot to the sticks.

"Yes, now can I turn human?" Akihiko grunted as he sat next to Nowaki.

Hiroki tilted his head, "Human? What for?"

"Because he's in looove!" she giggled as she lit a fire and let the water boil as she cut up the vegetables.

"What? You're in love? With a human?" Hiroki said in disbelieve.

"Yeah. What's the problem? I'll be human within a few minutes."

"I want to be human too! I want to be human too!" Nowaki jumped in.

"Nowaki!"

"What? If were both human then we don't have to worry about you being hunted!"

Akihiko nodded, "He's got a point."

"Stay out of this rabbit!"

"HEY HEY! I'm only doing the rabbit!" Amaterasu yelled over the animals.

"Then can you give us a quest?" Nowaki asked.

"Don't volunteer me!"

Akihiko smelt the air, "Amaterasu, what are you making? Some kind of potion?"

"Pft! No. I'm making myself food!"

"EHH?" the animals gaped.

"What? You get hungry after thousands of years."

"Why didn't you get it yourself?" Hiroki twitched.

"I needed to create my own entertainment." She said as she took a sip of the water filled with vegetables.

"…So there's no quest for me and Hiro-san?" Nowaki frowned.

"Nowaki!"

"I can't believe you made me do all those stupid things…" Akihiko grumbled.

"Hush! All of you!" Amaterasu shouted and stood up from kneeling in front of the pot.

Three looked at the goddess raise her arms and summon a small golden staff. She twirled the staff in the air and created a gold mist like cloud. Amaterasu pointed the staff at Akihiko and rotated it until he was in the air.

"What the hell!" Akihiko yelled.

She then brought Akihiko up into the mist and rotated the staff again. The mist started to glow a bright yellow before a blinding flash covered the area and made Nowaki and Hiroki shield their eyes.

"Ugh…" Akihiko groaned as he lay on the ground.

"Are you alright?" Nowaki asked.

"Yeah." He sat up and rubbed his head but stopped suddenly.

He looked at his hand. Instead of white, soft fur, it was a light, smooth, cream colored skin along with the rest of his body. He quickly grabbed the ladle from Amaterasu and stared at his reflection with wide eyes. His hair was a light sliver color and his eyes were lavender.

"Wow… I'm actually a human now…" He turned to Hiroki and Nowaki who were staring at him while awe and shock.

Akihiko struggled to stand up on two legs but managed to make his way up with the help of Amaterasu and Hiroki.

"You're perfect!" Amaterasu giggled, "But you're missing something…"

"What?"

She only had to point and he instantly realized what he was missing. He needed clothes.

Amaterasu held out a pair of pants and a shirt, "Don't worry. I had your cat friend steal it from the village when you were sleeping."

He gladly accepted the cloths and put them on. But he felt slightly uncomfortable. He was so use to his warm fur.

"You'll come back and visit us, right?" Nowaki asked as his tail waved.

Akihiko nodded, "I'll try."

"Hm…" Amaterasu tapped her chin, "Every human has a FULL name. You can be Akihiko… Usami! Yeah!"

Akihiko only shrugged, "Fine with me. Now if you excuse me, I need to get to the village."

The new human only took two steps before landing flat on his face. The other three stared down at him…

"Maybe we would teach you how to walk on two legs first…" Hiroki commented.

FINALLYYYYYYYYYYY! GAWSH! Took me long enough didn't it? XD
