Hello once again! Thank you to all who reviewed! I'm glad you

liked it. Sorry if it took me quite a while to get the second chapter

up! But here it finally is, so I hope you all enjoy!

Ch. 2: A Stroke of Good Luck

"Mara!" Keiichi and Belldandy yelled in unison.

"That's right! Today's the day I finally get rid of Belldandy!" Mara

yelled from the top of the ferris wheel. "Combine o minions and

heed your master's will!"

People fleed in crowds as the whole amusement park started to

shake. A dark aura surrounded the ferris wheel and it seemed to

become magnetic since the parts from other attractions and rides

started to swirl around it in a tornado.

Two bumper cars attached themselves to the base of the ferris

wheel. Two carts from the rollar coaster attached themselves

to each side.

"Now, my minion. Crush them! Nyahaha!" Mara yelled as her

creature stomped towards Keiichi and Belldandy.

"Keiichi! Please, you must go to a safer place"

"Are you sure, Bell?"

"Yes! Now hurry!"

Keiichi did as Belldandy requested and ran out of the park with

the other people who were at the amusement park. He couldn't

help but worry at Belldandy however.

"I sure hope she can take care of herself" Keiichi said to himself.

"Huh? What's that?"

Meanwhile, in the amusement park, Belldandy was still trying to

figure out a way to defeat the giant ferris wheel minion.

"Face it! You'll never defeat this creature! Nyahaha!"

"Don't be so sure of yourself, Mara!" Belldandy yelled, "Spirit of

Water hear my plee! I, the goddess Belldandy, beckon you to

douse the Demon's flame!"

At that very moment, a great ball of water appeared in front of

Belldandy. The ball got bigger and bigger until it was almost as

big as Belldandy.

With a push of her hands, the ball of water lunged itself towards

it's target and hit the ferris wheel right in the middle. This caused

the mechanical minion to spark and electric shocks to zap all over

it. Smoke seeped through and it started to fall back. With a big

crash, the huge minion was destroyed.

Mara, during the minion's destruction, had landed close to where

Belldandy was standing.

"Shame it was destroyed, but fortunately you have used up most

of your power! Now to seal you up within this mirror" Mara said

as she brought out a small, ancient-looking mirror.

Oh no! I can't possibly fight her off at this weakened state!

Almighty, please, help me! Belldandy thought to herself as she

blacked out.

"Nyahahaha, this couldn't go any more perfect! Belldandy is now

unconscious and it'll be a cinch to-ugh! Wh-what's going on? Why

do I feel so weak?" Mara said as the mirror fell from her hand

shattered to pieces as it fell to the ground.

"Belldandy!" A voice said from behind.

"Huh? Whose...there?" Mara said with a weak voice. She turned

around to see Keiichi running up to Belldandy. He had something

green in his hand.

"Belldandy! Please, speak to me!" Keiichi said, a worried

expression on his face.

"S-she's...fine"

"Huh! Aaah! Mara! I didn't realize you were still here. What'd

you do to Belldandy?"

"Relax...I-I didn't...do anything to her...yet. She's...just

unconscious...that's all" Mara said between loud rasping breathes.

"Huh? Uhm...is something wrong?"

"There must be...a good luck charm...close by"

"Oh! Like this!" Keiichi said as he held out a four leaf clover.

"Yes you idiot! Now get...that away from...me..." Mara said as

she blacked out. She fell to the ground and became unconscious

like Belldandy.

"Oh great! Now what do I do? I can't possibly carry them both!

And I can't just leave Mara here!" Keiichi said worried.

"Yo! Morisato!" A voice yelled from ahead. Keiichi looked up to

see two men running up to him.

Aaah! Otaki and Tamiya? What are they doing here? Of all

times why now? Keiichi thought to himself frantically.

"What happened here? And whose the blond dude?" Otaki asked.

"Uhm, well you see, this is Mara. Belldandy's...uhm...cousin!

Yeah, that's right, cousin. And she's been staying with us for a

while" Keiichi lied.

"You mean she's a woman!" Tamiya yelled in surprise.

"Yes. Anyway, I brought them both here to the amusement park,

but I guess they had a heat stroke and collapsed. Problem is I

don't know how to get them home since I only have room in my

sidecar for one and since their unconscious I can't have one of

them ride in the seat behind me since neither of them can hold on

to me"

"We can help youse out there!" Tamiya said with enthusiasm.

"Me and Otaki took one of them cars from the club to drive down

here since both of our bikes are in the shop being repaired. I can

drive youse guys home"

"Yeah, but what about my bike?"

"I'll drive it right behind you guys" Otaki said.

Keiichi was about to object, but he couldn't really argue since he

really didn't have any other choice. "Alright, here's the keys"

Keiichi said as he handed them to Otaki.

In about ten minutes, Tamiya helped carry Belldandy out to the

car while Keiichi carried Mara. He thought it'd be safer that way,

in case Mara woke up.

They got in the car with Tamiya driving, Keiichi in the passanger's

seat and Belldandy and Mara in the back.

"So, Morisato, why was all them people running out of the

amusement park?"

"U-uhm, well one of the rides short circuted and went a little out

of control, plus there was a small earthquake"

"Hmm. Well I know just the thing to cheer everybody up" Tamiya

said as he took a cassette tape out. He put it in and pressed play.

First there was a few seconds of silence, then the sound of

Tamiya's voice could be heard singing through the speakers.

How's this suppose to make anyone happy? Keiichi thought

as he plugged his ears.

Poor Keiichi had to listen to Tamiya's karoake tape all the way to

the temple. When they finally got there Tamiya helped carry the

girls into the temple.

Belldandy was put into her own room and Mara was put in

guest room.

"Thanks Tamiya"

"No problem. Now youse take good care of them girls. Got it!"

"Yes, of course!"

At that very second Otaki came in through the door.

"Here's your keys back"

"Thanks Otaki"

"No problem"

"See ya tomorrow, Morisato" Tamiya said as they slid the door

close. The two got in the car and drove off listening to Tamiya's

karoake tape.

"I can't believe I almost forgot I have class tomorrow. I guess

I'll head for bed and set my alarm for tomorrow morning. I sure

hope Urd and Skuld get back by then" Keiich said as his eyelids

got heavy and in a few minutes he was asleep.

Well that's it for this chapter! I hope you enjoyed! I'm sorry, I'm

trying to make my chapters longer, but it's kinda hard to come up

with new material. Please review! Bye for now!
