A/N Thank you for coming this far enjoy
Third Person
"What type of god is Yato?" Kid couldn't help but be curious. It wasn't his fault, being in a world filled with gods piqued the reaper's curiosity. Kid's mind filled with thoughts on Yato as the line progressed, they were nearly to the hostess podium.
"This world is still strange to me, but from what I've seen, there only seems to be gods from several Asian cultures. I am sure Tenjin is a god in Japanese culture, Bishamoten as well. Since I haven't heard of The Yato God, I can only assume he doesn't exist." These thoughts flooded Kid's mind.
"I should try to study more on Japanese culture while here. I should ask Tsubaki or Black Star if they have heard of the Yato God… maybe just Tsubaki or maybe Tsugumi." Kid continued moving with the line subconsciously as the others talked among themselves.
"If gods in this world are born from prayers, then if there are enough prayers gods can be born left and right, if my understanding is correct." Kid's thoughts continued distracting him from the passing students and attendants who stared at him and his weapons, he also didn't notice how near they were to the hostess.
"When we get Daikoku back to our world, and after we treat him, I could ask him more about the gods in this world. Maybe that would be too much, Yato probably doesn't want me to find out what type of god he is. I could tell they are secretive about it."
"Welcome to the First Year Couple Café, I am Saruwatari Michiko, and I will be your hostess." The hostess told Kid. Kid still distracted by his thoughts didn't say anything until he received a jab to the stomach by Liz.
Kid quickly came to attention as he realized they were now at the front of the line. He looked at the hostess with an apologetic look.
"Sorry, I wasn't paying attention." Kid apologized as he looked at Michiko straight in the eyes making her blush slightly.
"O-oh it's okay. May I ask how many are in your party?" Michiko composed herself but didn't make eye contact with Kid.
"We have six." Kid said this as he looked back making sure all the others were there.
"Please excuse me while we set up the tables." Michiko slightly bowed as she left to inform the other students working.
"Is there something wrong Kid? It isn't like you to blank out like that." Soul asked
"Simply thinking about Daikoku's condition, I really hope he can beat this." Kid slightly lied
"Daikoku is really strong, and has a lot of will power so I don't think he'll give up fighting this madness or whatever." Yato reassured
"I am sure he does but madness isn't something you've dealt with."
"Hey you guys want to quiet down, we wouldn't want to raise suspicions." Liz cautioned
"I doubt anyone will understand what we are talking about." Soul told her.
"Excuse me, your table is ready." Michiko's voice caught their attention as they saw the hostess motioning towards two tables which where put together. The people who sat at the other tables eyed them up and down much like others before them.
They sat at their table which had laminated menus in the center.
"Your server will be with you shortly." Michiko stated as she returned to her podium.
"They went all out." Yukine commented
"It seems they did." Yato said
"What will you guys be having?" Kid asked the group as picked up one of the menus
"Probably some tea or something." Liz answered
"I'll have the same as sis." Patty answered
"I'll probably have some ramen." Soul slightly drooled
The six waited for the waiter/waitress commenting on the cafe's quality
"Tell me Yato, why is Hiyori so popular? Not meaning any disrespect but from what I've heard she seems quite popular." Kid looked at Yato for confirmation. Yato looked away while Yukine wore a dead-pan expression.
"I heard some of them too, something about her saving a kid from falling." Soul also looked at Yato.
"Well….what happened….hey is that our waitress?" Yato quickly changed the subject as a waitress approached their table. Kid raised an eyebrow at Yato's hesitation.
"Hello everyone, you can call me Ami-chan and I am here to take your order." A glasses wearing, brunette stated with a smile.
The six ordered their meals, Yato and Yuki not noticed until the last second.
"Thank you, I'll bring out the drinks in a bit." Ami stated as she went behind the covered makeshift kitchen.
"Akimoto-san we have three orders of ramen. Yama-chan we also need two green teas, a can of C.C Lemon and some coffee with no sugar."
Yama prepared all the drinks as Akimoto, the chief, prepared the three bowls of ramen.
"Hiyori-chan! We need you to take these drinks to the six people table." Ami shouted for the half-phantom.
Said girl was hiding behind a box of drinks.
"I'm drawing too much attention." Hiyori said
"That is what we need, now get out there people want to see you, you're the talk of the block and that is getting us more costumers and besides didn't you want this attention." Ami stated as she pulled Hiyori out of her hiding place and Yama placed a tray of drinks in her hands.
"Now take these and go." Hiyori was pushed out of the makeshift kitchen. She quickly composed herself as she sighed.
"Table with six people, okay." Hiyori whispered as she fixed the bow tied in her hair which went with her entire maid outfit.
She walked out from behind the kitchen allowing people to now see her.
"It's Iki-san!"
"That's here, she's cuter than I expected."
"She looks good in that maid outfit."
"I wonder if she'll do her delivery service in that outfit."
Several whispers from the café customers erupted as Hiyori scanned for the six person table. Yama and Ami watched Hiyori from their hiding place.
"Hi Iki-senpai." A shy middle school student greeted as he sat with other assumed middle school students.
Hiyori simply waved with a smile.
"Hey Iki-senpai!" Girls from another table shouted.
"Hi everyone." Hiyori waved once again.
Several people from the line who could see her started whispering among themselves.
Hiyori finally found the six person table only to see Yato staring at her with a blush on his face. Her face became much redder than before as she neared their table.
"Hey Hiyori! You look cute." Patty commented as Hiyori arrived at the table and placed the drinks on the table. Kid was first in picking up his cup of coffee.
"I can't help but agree with that." Liz nodded in agreement.
Everyone who could hear them stared at Hiyori in shock, along with Ami and Yama who were intending on walking up to her.
"Iki-senpai you know them?" A female student in the table adjacent to theirs asked
"Iki-san are they from another school?"
"Are they transfers?"
Questions overwhelmed Hiyori, as some students actually started swarming her.
Students from the lines started wanting to go in and ask questions as well.
Kid saw Hiyori's frantic state and decided to save the half-phantom "Excuse me everyone." Kid stood drawing everyone attention to him.
"We aren't transfers or from around this area. We are actually tourists from America. A few days ago we met Hiyori, since she was kind enough to help us when we got lost. We also met these two nice gentlemen who also helped us navigate our way around town." Kid motioned to Yato and Yukine making everyone suddenly realize they were there.
"Hiyori told us about this festival and we decided to check it out so here we are, I apologize for any confusion. To clear up a little more you can all call me Kid if you'd like." Kid finished and he sat down taking another sip of his coffee. All the café goers couldn't help but be impressed by Kid's confident tone and command. To them he seemed used to talking in front of big crowds and was used to being listened to. They had no idea.
"Wow! Iki-san you are so nice."
"Iki-senpai has cool friends."
"Can you introduce us?"
"Why don't you ask them yourself, that way you could meet them yourself." Hiyori offered making everyone agree.
The peaceful café escapade turned out to be everyone being the center of attention including Yato and Yukine who were strangers to all the attention but didn't really mind it.
"So what are your names?" A female student asked
"Liz"
"Patty!"
"I'm the cool guy, Soul"
"Yato"
"Uh..Yuki"
They all answered some, Yuki blushing as people started paying attention to him
Hiyori took this chance to try to sneak back to the kitchen but was stopped by Yama and Ami
"I can't believe you never told us about your other friends." Yama stated as tears literally streamed from her eyes like waterfalls.
"Have you gotten too popular for us?" Ami said as she pushed up her glasses causing light to reflect off them.
"No, No I just happen to run into them." Hiyori defended.
"Don't worry we're just messing with you." Yama reassured
"How would your mom react if she found out you were talking with strangers from another country?" Ami asked
"Well at least I think I am." Yama rubbed her head as she sweat dropped.
"So what year are you in, back in America I mean." Someone asked the four.
"We've actually all graduated, though Kid here was the first." Soul motioned to Kid who was finishing the last of his coffee.
"What?! You guys can't be that older than us!" A male student exclaimed his surprise
"I guess you can say we are cooler than the other students." Soul pointed at himself with his thumb.
"You know that isn't true." Liz stated
"Still graduating sooner than most people, that's really amazing." A female student stated this time.
"That might be but we still can't beat Kid, he graduated an entire year before us." Liz motion towards Kid who was simply listening.
"Amazing. How old are you guys anyways?"
"We all are 16 minus Liz who is 18." Kid answered.
This shocked everyone, not only are these four their upperclassmen but they graduated earlier than most. Even Yama and Ami overheard this and were also slightly shocked.
"Kid-senpai you are so cool!" Several girls squealed
"Kid-senpai isn't as cute as Kiddo-chan!" Patty stated out loud making the guys slightly chuckle and the girls squeal again.
"Kid-senpai can we call you Kiddo-chan-senpai?!" Some girls asked making others who were too shy look at him with anticipation.
Still looking nonchalant as usual Kid answered "Sure if you want, I don't really mind."
Most girls surrounding the table seemed to punch the air in victory.
"So are all of you attending a university?"
"Actually we all work in the same occupation." Kid answered
"You are working already? Where do you work?"
Kid looked at the other three not really sure if he should tell them the semi-truth or simply flat our lie.
"Well... we all work at our former academy." Kid revealed
This gained shocked expressions.
"Wait so do you mean all of you are teachers?"
"I guess you could say that." Kid thought about what the male student thought. Technically Kid is a teacher since he's the headmaster and Souls sometime teams up with Maka to teach freshmen.
"Kiddo-sensei!" A random exclamation was heard
Yato smiled as people surrounding him continued talking to him, along with Yuki who was blushing as girls commented on how cute he is.
Yato's phone suddenly rang "Excuse me guys." He looked at the caller ID discovering the caller being Kofuku.
"Kofuku is something wrong?" He asked. Everyone around him stopped talking as the god listened to what Kofuku had to say.
"Alright wait a second. Kid it's for you." Yato handed Kid the phone.
The rest of the people surrounding them quieted down.
"Yes Kofuku?" Kid answered.
After a few inaudible mumbles from the other side, Kid eyes visibly widened as he heard what Kofuku was saying.
"That is wonderful! Tell them to wait up we'll be there!" Kid quickly stood as he hung up the phone.
"Kid what is so wonderful?" Soul asked.
"They've done it we can get back home." Kid smiled as he gave them the news.
"It was a matter of time." Liz smiled as she also stood up.
"I can finally see my giraffe again!" Patty exclaimed happily.
"Time to go home." Soul stated
The people surrounding them looked on with confusion.
"Kiddo-sensei what do you mean?" A random student asked making everyone there stare at him.
"Well something we didn't tell you is we are in a way stuck here since… we lost our passports. For the last few days we were simply waiting for them to be found and now they are." Kid explained.
"You're leaving?" The students looked with sadness
"I apologize but we do have to go, we have important things to do back home, so if you'll excuse us we'll be going." With that Kid started walking away followed by Liz, Patty and Soul. Everyone else simply looked at their backs with more questions.
The walk back to the rest stop was more of a speed walk as all of them were excited to get home. They arrived now seeing Kofuku outside in front of the projection where she spoke with Kim accompanied by Sid, Free, Eureka, Nygus and Mizune who were in their adult form. A gurney was next to Nygus as well.
"Kim so you discovered a way to get us back?" Kid walked in front of the projection as he removed his beanie, revealing his Sanzu Lines.
"Yes, though we haven't had any way of testing it since it revolves around this projection." Kim confirmed
"So you plan on using this projection somehow."
"Yes, after theorizing on several possibilities we've assumed that, with enough power, this projection can act as a dimensional portal between our world and that world." Kim explained
"So you are planning to use the mixed powers of everyone you've gathered. That is exceedingly brilliant." Kid commented
"It still only a theory and we've never dealt with this type of situation before so we don't know what will happened if it goes wrong." Kim said
"Just hope for the best. So how are all of you intending on giving this projection enough power, I doubt all of you will randomly start firing magic attacks."
"All of us with fuse our powers to making a giant teleportation spell and we hope you will add more power to this projection so in the end instead of it simply becoming a link, it should become a portal, or we can cause a big enough explosion to tear a hole in both dimensions." Kim finished, sheepishly stating the last part.
"You have all put lots of thinking and effort into this plan so I am sure it will work. Simply tell me when you want me to start adding power." Kid prepared himself as everyone on the other side of the projection did the same.
All the magic users in the Death Room started chanting their respective spells as the floor below them started glowing.
Kim and Eureka stood directly in front of the projection while Mizune and Free stood slightly to the left and right sides.
As the glowing increased all the magic users aimed their hands towards the projection moving the transportation magic.
"Kid start now." Kid heard Kim's voice as he started his hand movements ending with pointing at the projection and much more power aimed towards the skull symbol on the floor which made it glow brighter purple than before. As the reaper power collided with the projection which was being shot with magic, it seemed to explode as the power started mixing. Wind started picking up swaying the clothes of the people present in both worlds.
"Everyone please get back, there no telling how their magic will react with my reaper power!" Kid shouted over the wind. Liz, Soul, Patty and Kofuku did as they were told and started inching backwards, away from the projection.
They continued adding power, the magic users on their side, the lord of death on his side. The projection seemed to be flailing around getting taller or getting smaller, getting wider and flicking as the two powers fused. The wind got stronger making it hard for both parties to keep their eyes opened especially the group in The Death Room since the wind was picking up dust.
"Hey Kim this isn't doing much but picking up wind!" Free shouted towards the tanuki witch.
"We have to continue adding power!" She shouted back.
Kid heard this and decided he had to add more power so he channeled more of his reaper power towards his fingers.
"Free is correct, this isn't doing much." Kid though of anything else he could do to add more power.
"Using my full power, could very well create a giant explosion and I would not want that here." Kid debated on whether he should use his full power.
"The witches worked harder and theorized for the past week. If I ruin this plan by using too much power, than their work could very well be for nothing." Kid contemplated on the idea as he continued adding power.
The purple light, emitted from the projection started glowing brighter, which began blinding Kid along with everyone behind him.
On Kim's side they hadn't noticed the mirror had started cracking bit by bit.
"We have to add more power! Free start using the demon eye's power!" Kim shouted to the werewolf
"On it!" The immortal shouted as his left eye started glowing, along with the text above it.
"I guess they are going with an attempt in tearing a hole, instead of transforming it into a portal." Kid thought
Kid decided on using his full power "Everyone get inside the house!" He shouted to everyone behind him.
"I am planning on using my full power so if it gets out of hand nobody will get hurt!" He now turned his head slightly, allowing him to get a view of his weapons and the poverty god.
"What about you?" Soul shouted
"My reaper body can take more damage and besides it will be my fault if this thing does explode so please go inside!" Kid exclaimed.
Soul along with Liz and Patty seemed were hesitant until they gave each other nods.
"Kofuku come on." Liz went over to the pink haired god and took her inside.
The four went inside but continued looking from a half-opened door.
"Okay here we go." Kid whispered to himself.
Kid closed his eyes, still sending his power towards the projection.
"Order is my power, the Madness of Order." He thought as his Sanzu Lines started glowing.
His death scythes noticed this "He is going to use his full power." Soul stated
"Hasn't used his full power since the Kishin." Liz commented
The Sanzu Lines soon started to lift from his head becoming three halos floating. His robe suddenly started materializing covering his entire body minus the extended arms. The black robe covered him entirely in black, with a curled collar and skull broach.
Kim on the other side could see Kid powering up "Kid is going to use his full power, I was just joking about tearing a hole in the dimensions." She thought as Kid opened his eyes.
Kid's pupils now resembled his mask, the shape of a skull. The stream of power he was sending towards the projection now increased, causing the projection to uproar from the power.
Both sides increased their power, now simply trying to enhance the mirror's abilities.
With the increase of power from Kid, the projection nearly seemed ready to turn off and the mirror started cracking more and more which was now gaining attention from the Death Room's occupants.
"The mirror! It's cracking!" Eureka shouted
"What!" Kim suddenly noticed the rapidly cracking mirror.
"Do we stop?" Free asked
"What is going on?" Kid noticed their frantic expression, a cracking noise suddenly caught his attention as cracks with purple light seeping through them, started covering the projection.
"Cracks?!" Kid exclaimed out loud as crack covered the projection quicker than he could think.
The mirror and projection now had several cracks, some parts of the mirror had starting falling off, and both sides stopped adding power. The wind stopped but the projection's brightness remained still blinding Kid.
"Did it stop?!" Kid heard Kim shout from the Death Room.
"I don't know!" Kid shouted back
Suddenly one finally crack made its way to the surface of the mirror/projection, producing one last *CRACK*. On Kim's side the mirror started vibrating before it shattered sending glass hurtling towards the magic users who all dodged the oncoming shards.
At the exact same time the projection on Kid's side exploded in a bright light, sending him flying towards the house. The light was also sent streaming into the sky making any people outside look towards the stream.
Among the people were Yato and Yuki who were heading back to the rest stop after actually spending time with people.
"What the hell is that?" Yato looked at the bright stream of purple light.
"Isn't that the direction of Kofuku's?" Yuki asked
"Sekki." Yato spoke Yuki's shinki name and he jumped onto a light post heading towards the bright light.
Hiyori was serving some students their order when the bright light was seen.
"That light, what do you think that is?" She heard Yama ask another student in the kitchen.
After Kid, Liz, Patty and Soul left Hiyori had heard from the other students that they apparently left because they found a way home. The news had saddened the girl, it was apparent to her best friends but she simply stated she didn't what to disturb them anymore.
As Hiyori saw the stream of purple light she quickly knew it had to do with them. She slightly regretted not going with Yato when she was given the chance.
Yama and Ami noticed "Hiyori you can say go and say goodbye to your friends if you want, I don't think they've left yet." Yama walked up to Hiyori along with Ami
"I don't think I will make it in time." Hiyori told them
"Planes don't leave that fast and besides they still have to deal with all the other hassles of travelling by plane." Ami comforted
Hiyori thought about it before she gave her thanks and quickly left the school, hailed a taxi and was heading towards the purple light.
The bright light blinded the four viewers from within the house, causing them to not notice the oncoming reaper.
"Damn!" Soul shouted the light continued blinding him
"Where's Kid!" Liz shouted
"Kid are you okay!" Patty shouted as well.
As she shouted as the reaper came crashing in through the door, breaking it and landing on Soul.
"What the hell!" Soul shouted
"What the hell indeed." Kid got up and rubbed his head
"Kid what happened?"
"I don't know, but I think we tore a hole in the two dimensions." Kid explained as he pushed the door open, letting in the blinding light which was now decreasing along with the stream of purple light which was shooting into the sky.
"Did it work?" Kofuku spoke
"Possibly, if it didn't than I don't know what that explosion was." Kid blocked his eyes with his right hand, as the light subsided.
What was revealed shocked everyone present, the projection was now an arc type portal, which rippled like water
On the other side of the portal, stood everyone equally as shocked as glass lay everywhere and the same portal was present if front of the Death Room's occupants.
"It worked, haha, it worked." Kim couldn't believe her joke turned out to actually work as she eyed the rippling portal, clearly seeing Kid on the other side.
Kid approached the portal "Your plan seemed to work but are we sure." Kid reached for the portal intending on finding out if he could actually go through it.
"Wait!" Kid was abruptly stopped by Kim
"Is something the matter?" Kid asked in confusion
"Technically we don't know what will happen if you go through, for all we know it could cut of your limbs or kill you. We should test it first. Free go through." Kim looked at the werewolf as she motioned to the portal.
"Why do I have to go?" The towering werewolf said to the short witch
"Don't give me that, you're immortal so go on." Kim once again motion for the werewolf to go through the portal.
"Come on Free, don't be a baby. I thought you were a "scary werewolf"." Eureka mocked
"Fine, fine. I'll do it." Free gave in as he stepped up to the portal, stepping over glass in the process.
He eyed the portal before sighing "Here goes nothing." He said as he reached for the portal.
Liz, Patty, Soul and Kofuku had stepped out of the house and stood behind Kid watching Free.
Free's arm passed through the portal causing it to ripple like water. He continued pushing his entire body through the portal.
Free was through the portal, checking himself for any wounds. "Looks like nothing happened. Hey Lord Death." Free smiled at the reaper as he raised a hand
Kim let out a breath she didn't know she was holding in "So nothing happen, good." She thought
"Hello Free, glad to see you didn't get hurt, anyways now that you are here, you can carry Daikoku." Kid told Free.
Sid walked up to the projection "Lord Death shall we come through and help?" Sid talking about himself and Nygus asked.
"It is okay if you stay there simply prepare that gurney and clear the glass on the floor." Kid turned to Kofuku "Kofuku can you please show, Free here, where Daikoku is." Kid looked at Kofuku as he said this.
"Yes this way Mr. Free." Kofuku answered as she turned
Free fallowed the god "Free be careful when handling, Daikoku." Kid stated receiving a nod from the werewolf.
Kid sensed Yato arrive and turned towards his direction
"Yuki" Yato said as he landed making his shinki revert back to his human form
"I see you managed to make a portal." Yato stated as he looked at the portal linking both worlds
"Not without the help of our friends back home." Kid replied
Free walked up to the two gods bringing their attention to him "Alright we are ready to go through. Kofuku I imagine you'll want to stay with Daikoku." Kid turned to the pink haired god as she nodded.
"Alright are you guys ready to go?" Kid turned to his scythes
"I wish Hiyori was here." Liz commented
"I wonder if she saw the light." Patty put a finger to her chin as if thinking
"Alright Free go through we'll be right behind you, everyone else let's go." Kid commanded with much authority.
Free proceeded to walk through, while still holding Daikoku, after him was Kofuku.
"Hey Kid aren't you forgetting your mask?" Liz reminded Kid
"Oh crap, I'll be right back you can go through if you would like." Kid turned back to the house quickly making it upstairs where he had put his mask. Liz, Soul and Patty walked through the portal.
Kid made it back down the stairs, right as Hiyori entered the rest stop.
Kid noticed her "Hiyori, you managed to get here just in time." Kid told her
"I came to say goodbye." Hiyori looked at him
"I was actually thinking of inviting you along with Yato and Yuki to come and visit, after what you've done, I feel the right to repay you." Kid revealed his idea
"Oh no you don't have to, I didn't really do much in the first place, besides I don't think I could be gone for long." Hiyori waved her hand frantically believing she didn't deserve repayment.
"It won't be long really, I am planning to turn off the portal which would revert the time differences between both worlds." Kid told her.
"Come on Hiyori we all deserve a vacation." Yato entered after hearing Kid's idea
"I assume you will be coming?" Kid asked as he turned to Yato
"I can't let Kofuku have all the fun in a different world."
Hiyori looked at both of them deciding if she should go or not.
Kid noticed her struggle "The most you'll be gone if probably an hour or so. The time differences between these two worlds is very different. Basically one week there is an hour here." He told her
Hiyori heard this and continued thinking she looked down noticing she was still wearing a maid outfit.
"I don't have anything packed or any spare clothes." Hiyori stated
"No need to worry about that, I am sure the girls would love to take you shopping. You don't have to worry about the expenses either." Kid smiled as he said this.
"Come on Hiyori it will be fun." Yato convinced the half-phantom.
"Fine, I guess going to another world is better than any other vacation." Hiyori agreed
"Let us be off then." Kid walked off towards the portal as he put his mask on.
Kid looked towards the portal before walking in, causing the portal to ripple much like before.
Hiyori was hesitant to walking through it but was given a little push by Yato who was followed by Yuki.
"Sid, Nygus take Daikoku to the infirmary and let Kofuku go with you. Kim please go with them as well use your healing magic to get that madness out of him. Free, Eureka, Mizune if you can please report back to Witch Mabaa, tell her this plan worked and that my death scythes and I have made it back to this world. I will go get Stein so he can check on Daikoku later. Liz, Patty, Soul come with me along with everyone else. Does anyone have questions?" Kid gave everyone their jobs as he looked around waiting for any questions.
"Alright then, you all know your jobs, please get to them." Kid now wore his mask as he turned towards the portal. Everyone went to do their jobs heading towards the exit of the Death Room. Kofuku followed Nygus and Sid as they wheeled Daikoku out of the room.
"I am sure if one side turned off then the whole thing will turn off." He thought as decreased the power from his side. It soon turned off causing the portal in the Death Room to shut off from the lack of connection on the other side.
"Alright I guess I should go speak with Stein and tell him we have returned." Kid passed the group from the other world, heading towards the exit. Liz, Patty and Soul followed him.
"Kid is very respected isn't he." Hiyori mentioned as she walked with Yuki and Yato down the halls of the DWMA.
The halls were empty since classes were in session.
"Lord Death. You have come back." Akane Hoshi walked up to Kid and his entourage
"Good Akane I have a job for you, please take my guests here to Gallows Manor. If they want you can even give them a tour of the academy." Kid pointed at the three behind him.
"Sure thing Lord Death." Akane agreed
Kid turned to the group "Everyone this is Akane Hoshi an agent of the DWMA CIA he'll be taking you to my home." Kid motioned towards Akane
"We'll go with them." Liz added
"We can give them a tour of the house." Patty stated
"Thank you girls, so Akane take the limo and you can drop them off at Gallows Manor." Kid said as he handed off the group to Akane
Akane motioned for everyone to follow him as he headed to the entrance of the school.
Kid looked at Soul "Let's go to Stein's class." Kid and Soul traveled down the hall heading towards the scientist's classroom. They arrived and stood outside the classroom.
"This sure brings back memories." Soul looked at the sign above the door which read 'Class Crescent Moon.'
"What do you think he's teaching?" Kid asked
"Probably dissecting some endangered species or something." Soul chuckled as he said this.
The two entered the classroom gaining gasps from the entire class.
"Lord Death, what is he doing here?"
"It's Death Scythe!"
Stein was in fact dissecting an endangered type of bird.
Stein turned and smiled "Lord Death you've returned."
"Sorry for interrupting do you mind if I speak with you." Kid motioned towards the door
"Excuse me class while I step out for a bit" Stein, still sitting on his chair, wheeled himself out of his classroom into the hall.
Once outside Stein looked up at Kid from his sitting position.
"The witches' plan worked." Stein stated
"Well in way, in the end we simply tore a hole in both dimensions." Kid told his former teacher.
"I am also seeing new souls in the school, have you brought visitors?" Stein scanned the school with his soul perception seeing the strange new souls.
"Yes since we brought Daikoku with us, Kofuku wanted to come, and another god named Yato and his weapon came along with one of their friends, Hiyori."
"You've taken Daikoku to the infirmary, I assume."
"Yes that is why I am here, I am sure Kim's healing magic will get the madness out of his system. After that he should wake up in a few hours or so when that happens I want you to make sure the madness is out of him, run a few tests, ask him questions then he could be released, if he passes the test that is." Kid instructed Stein
"After my classes end, I'll head right over there. No need to worry Lord Death." Stein stated
"Thank you Stein, and sorry to disrupt your class. I'll be heading out now." With that Kid led Soul to the infirmary to check on Daikoku.
"Mr. Hoshi." Akane turned to his right to see Hiyori.
"Please call me Akane, Ms…
"Iki Hiyori. Call me Hiyori."
"Is there something you need, Hiyori?"
"Well my friends and I wanted to know what Gallows Manor is." Yato and Yuki walked up next to Hiyori.
"Oh well to put it simply Gallows Manor is where Lord Death lives. It is known worldwide as much as Death City itself." Hiyori, Yato and Yuki listened intently
"Lord Death lives there whenever he isn't here in the DWMA, along with his two personal weapons Liz and Patty. It is a grand estate, I've only been there a few times during parties, and it is rather luxurious." Akane remembered the several parties where he visited the manor.
"Yeah we've been living there ever since becoming Kid's weapons, you don't have to worry about rooms. The manor has more rooms than we know what to do with." Liz walked up next to Akane followed by Patty
"Yeah we have too much space so Kid fills it with symmetrical things." Patty commented
"Does Kid host many parties?" Yato asked
"Not many public parties, those are usually held here in the DWMA, like the anniversary of the academy's opening for example." Akane told them
"We usually host them when it is someone's birthday, or just to lighten up the mood." Liz added
"Kid always gets the best food at his parties." Patty also added
"Wait so no one is afraid of him." Yuki spoke up
"Afraid? I don't think anybody is afraid of Lord Death, he is probably the most respected being in the world." Akane answered
"Believe us when we say there are far scarier things in this world than the grim reaper." Liz said
"Akane! I've been looking for you!" Clay Sizemore came running up to his meister.
"Akane, who are these people?" Clay asked
"Hey Clay, these people are our friends from the other world." Liz spoke up
"So Lord Death made it back?" Clay asked
"Yes and I am currently taking his guests to Gallows Manor since you are here can you go and bring the car to the base of the stairs while I show them the view." Akane said
"So you're going to show them that view, I guess anyone who visits the DWMA can't go without seeing it, well I'll call you when I bring the car around front." Clay turned with a wave as he went to get the limo."
"Akane, what view are you guys talking about?" Yato asked
"You'll see."
They continued walking through the halls passing the mission board. They soon could see the exit as sunlight streamed into the school.
They passed the bulletin board now directly in front of the exit.
Akane led them under the giant skull archways which were directly in front of the DWMA.
"Well everyone I welcome you to, Death City." Akane said this as he stopped at the top of the giant staircase allowing everyone to get a clear view of the entire city.
"Wow this is amazing!" Hiyori said as she saw the ocean of buildings and then seeing the endless deserts which surrounded Death City off in the distance.
"This city is bigger than I imagined." Yato looked on
"Also if you guys want to turn around, we welcome you to Death Weapon Meister Academy." Liz and Patty motioned towards the school making everyone to turn around.
Everyone gawked at the school, the biggest building in Death City, the headquarters of the protectors of the world.
"This beats any vacation doesn't it?" Yato put his arm over Yuki's shoulder
"I'll agree with you on that." Yuki looked at the huge building.
"It's kind of scary in appearance." Hiyori stated eyeing all the skulls.
"You'll get used to it, if you stay in Death City long enough all the skulls are an everyday thing." Akane said
"If you think the school looks frightening, wait until you see our house, it is like a graveyard." Patty stated never losing her happy smile.
Yato, Hiyori and Yuki looked paled at the thought
"Patty don't scare them." Liz told her sister.
"Wait what the hell is that!?" Yato yelled as he pointed at the sky.
Everyone looked up to see the booming sun as it laughed the day away.
"Oh yeah and that is the sun." Liz looked up at the sun
"Hi Mr. Sun it has been a while!" Patty waved at the sun.
"Well that is disturbing." Hiyori sweat dropped as she looked at the sun
"That is creepy, is the moon the same way?" Yuki asked Akane
At the mention of the moon everyone's expression turned slightly grim
"The moon was like that and still is but ever since the battle of the moon two years ago, it has been covered by a ball of black blood. Our nights have been much darker than before." Akane explained as he watched the city.
"Black Blood?" Simply from hearing the name, Hiyori knew it wasn't something good.
"Let us stay happy, you guys are visiting, let us not get into depressing details. Akane what the hell is taking Clay so long?" Liz broke up the conversation not really wanting to get into things in the past.
"I don't know either he should have called me already. We should start going down the stairs at least." Akane stated
"Let go then." Liz agreed as she started making her way down the stairs.
Yato simply looked at the stairs "That is a lot of stairs."
"Do students have to walk up here every morning?" Yuki also looked at the stairs.
"I bet it is easier going down than up." Hiyori started walking down the stairs following Akane, Liz and Patty.
The walk down was easier than Yato thought but as he kept walking he looked at the city from different heights and looked backwards to see the entirety of the DWMA which from a lower distance was quiet the view in itself.
Akane's phone rang causing everyone to stop walking "It is about time are you there already?"
After a few mumbles from the other side Akane hung up "Clay should be waiting for us when we get there so let us hurry." Akane informed them.
The group paced themselves as they walked down the stairs. As they continued walking they could see Clay waving at them.
They reached the bottom "Clay what the hell took so long?" Akane asked
"Sorry I forgot my ID back in the headquarters, so I couldn't get the car out of the garage." Clay admitted
"Let us get going then." Akane opened the back door of the limo, motioning for Yato, Yuki, and Hiyori to get in. The three looked at each other before hesitantly getting into the car.
Kofuku waited outside of the infirmary, Sid and Nygus had told her to wait there since she couldn't be inside the infirmary while Kim removed the madness with her magic.
"Daikoku, please get better." Kofuku mumbled as she grabbed onto her pink skirt she always wore.
"Kofuku." The pink haired girl looked up to see Kid and Soul walk up to her
"You don't have to be here, if you want you can head to my home." Kid told her
"I don't want to leave Daikoku." She stated
"Kim is pretty cool when it comes to healing so she should be done in a no time." Soul said
"Kim's healing abilities are great so Daikoku will be okay." Kid added
Meanwhile inside the infirmary
Kim had her hands placed on Daikoku's bare chest as she applied her healing magic. As she did this Daikoku started shifting and he seemed to be struggling.
"Mr. Daikoku hold on please, I'm doing my best." Kim whispered to herself as she concentrated her power.
Sid and Nygus watched from a few feet away.
Inside Daikoku's Mindscape Daikoku's POV
(Besides this is him thinking/"this is" him talking)
Normal font is the narrator. If you are confused I apologize, I type things as I think them and sometimes I don't think about clarifying things, sorry.)
Where the hell am I? I can't see anything.
"Kofuku!"
Damn what happened?
"Can anyone hear me?!" What am I walking on, it feels like water but stickier and thicker.
"How the hell did I even get here?"
"Daikoku…" Was that Kofuku?
"Milady where are you! Call out again!" Where is she? I can't see anything,
"Daikoku…" There she is again
"Milady I'm coming!" Come on run faster you damn idiot! You have to protect her.
"Daikoku…"
"Milady! I have found you, milady do you know where we are?" Kofuku doesn't smell like she usually does, this smells like…..blood
Daikoku stood in this dark room as he hugged "Kofuku"
"Why Daikoku?"
"What do you mean Kofuku? What's wrong?"
"Why didn't you protect me?"
What does she mean?
A light suddenly turned on giving Daikoku a view of "Kofuku", he was shocked to see her covered in blood and badly injured
"Kofuku! What happened?!"
"You didn't protect me…"
Kofuku's body started sinking into the now visible floor of black blood.
"You failed me…"
"You didn't protect me…"
"I am dying because of you…"
"Kofuku!" What is happening?!
"Kofuku's" body is completely covered by the black liquid, her outstretched hand is being held by Daikoku.
"Kofuku! Kofuku NO!" I can't let her die, she is all I have! I won't fail her!
Daikoku starting being pulled into the black blood as he held "Kofuku's" hand.
"No I've got to get out of here, I'll save you Kofuku!" I need to get out, I need to save us.
The blood yanked the last of Daikoku's body submerging him into the liquid.
"KOFUKU!" Wait I can breathe underwater where is she, I have to find her!
"You won't find her she is already gone and it is your fault."
A very sinister sounding voice caught Daikoku's attention as he looked around trying to find the source of the voice.
"Who's there, tell me where Kofuku is!"
"She is gone and it is all because you failed her!"
"NO! I didn't! I…don't know… what is going on."
Daikoku held his head in frustration as he was mocked by the sinister voice.
"The great Daikoku, shinki to Kofuku Ebisu, the hopeless god of poverty"
"Don't you dare mock milady you bastard! Kofuku is the best god there is!"
"Oh really?"
Daikoku turned to see himself. This fake Daikoku had three eyes on his face and a very sinister smile.
"She is a wreck, she causes trouble wherever she goes, she is useless and you know it!"
"Shut up! Shut up!" This isn't true! This isn't true!
"Even now I doubt she wants you back, I bet she has already gotten herself exiled by the other gods."
"That would never happen!"
"It already has."
"NO, NO!" It hasn't! It hasn't!
"She is dead now so it doesn't matter, I doubt anyone will care if she's gone anyways"
"You bastard!"
Daikoku went to punch his other self only for it to burst into black blood.
"What!"
"Goodbye Daikoku."
Daikoku hears "Kofuku's" voice as the blood which came from the fake Daikoku consumed him.
"Kofuku…"
Daikoku tried reach out to "Kofuku" who he saw walking away from him.
"No…please…don't…leave."
A/N You made it through that chapter thank you.
I have something to announce. I will be typing a chapter which has nothing to do with the plot what so ever.
It will probably be my shot at romance for all of you who enjoy romance.
If you want a certain character/characters to have their own spot light than tell me and I'll see if I can come up with something.
This random chapter will probably contain five mini stories of whichever characters you choose. There will be one character I choose.
