Chapter 7: The Twin Gods

Kurou Hara ran into Yumoto's room, panting. The God of Health was always the choice for Gora when Yumoto was sick or hurt.

Kurou was always nervous about helping the God of Love and the God of Light because if he messed up he would be on the bad side of Gora.

Kinshiro looked at him, "Maximum Gorar is waiting for you…"
Kurou nodded and walked into Yumoto's room, he bit his lip as he eyed the young heir. The young God of Light was pale in the face and Gora was constantly hovering over him as Atsushi dabbed his head with a damp cloth.

Kurou walked up to him and began to help him, he smiled to himself as the color flushed back into Yumoto's face.

Atsushi smiled and Kurou bowed as he left.

"God of the Moon…" Takumi spoke, "I would like to work with you still."

"What?" Akihiko growled, "How did you know…?"
"What, that you were the Moon God?" Takumi smirked "The God of Light had lessons about you and your brother…and about how you basically disappeared from sight…yet…you tease him at the palace."

Haruhiko frowned at him, "I don't refer to myself as the God of the Sun nor the Sun God. I refuse to work with the heir and all I want is his brother!"

Takumi frowned, "So you both have basically turned away from the other Gods?"

"Yes! In fact, we work with Dadacha…who is related to the demon, Lord Zundar." Akihiko explained.

"So, two gods have gone rouge now…and you're working with a demon?" Takumi repeated and Haruhiko smiled, "Yes! We will finally get rid of that dumb Hakone Yumoto and have our idol, Maximum Gorar!"

Akihiko turned to Haruhiko, "Why are we even telling him this?"
Haruhiko gasped, "Yeah…why are we?"

Takumi smirked and Katashi appeared beside his father, "Father…the heir is awake again…our little thing of controlling Hashibiro failed."

Takumi frowned and Haruhiko smirked, "Hah! This is just proving that we, the VEPPer will get rid of him!"

"Katashi, I have one other trick…and it involves Lord Hireashi…"

"Wait…Hireashi?" Akihiko gasped, "If you get rid of him using Hireashi, we'll all die!" He yelled and Haruhiko growled, "Aki, I'll get rid of him! We, the VEPPer, won't allow you to get Hireashi!"

Takumi smirked and quickly teleported away with Katashi. Haruhiko clutched at his head. "W-why did I want to stop him?! W-why?! I hate Hakone Yumoto!"

Akihiko ran over to Haruhiko, "H-Haru, are you okay?"
"Y-yes! I'm so confused…why did I want to help him?"
Akihiko frowned, "I did too…" he looked down as Dadacha spoke, "My twins, it's just your old god-selves wanting to help the heir-dacha…don't listen to that urge!"

They nodded, "Yes…we won't let that stop us now!"

Ibushi, the God of Protection and Akoya, the God of Time and Beauty sighed as they looked at Yumoto. Yumoto was sitting in the room of the mortal door and looked up.

"A-Argent…" He whispered, tears breaking his voice, "W-Will…will my powers ever come?"

Akoya gasped…he had never seen Yumoto upset before. Ibushi walked over to him and wiped the tears away, "Yes…they will soon, Little One…"

"B-But my powers didn't even show up when I was born!" He looked down, "That's why papa doesn't believe in me!"

Akoya frowned and bent down in front of him, "Fluffhead, I can see forward in time…and I can see you getting your powers at the age of fifteen."

Yumoto gasped, "R-really?!"
Akoya nodded, "Yes…now dinner is ready."

Yumoto nodded and ran out.

"Ibushi...the Gods of the Sun and Moon are making themselves noticed again. They are after Fluffhead, in fact, they are the twins harassing him!"

Ibushi frowned, "Sol and Luna were banished many years ago! They were banished before Scarlet was born, for they were threatening to kill him when his mother first announced him!"

Akoya nodded and gasped as Kinshiro spoke, "Yes, and Sol and Luna are now working with Dadacha, who is a demon and is the younger brother of Zundar."

Akoya frowned, "What are you saying, Aurite?"
Kinshiro replied, "Our whole existence is in danger."
"But Scarlet will not awaken until we are in real danger!" Ibushi replied, "The heir is too young to be Scarlet still."

The Caerula Adamas gasped as they heard laughter from one of the crystal walls.

"Look Sol, they finally figured out our plan…"

"Yes, Luna…"

"You!" Kinshiro growled

"Ah, yes, the God of Wisdom…"

"You will never get the heir nor will you end us!"

"Really, Aurite? How can you be so sure?"
"Yeah, and besides, Lord Takumi and his son are now sacrificing mortals to Hireashi…and will be leaving your little heir for later…if you stop them. The heir isn't going to be sacrificed until his next birthday…but who are we to tell you this?"

Akoya froze as he began to see this happen…

Yumoto whimpered as the twins chained his wrists down and Kou smiled, "Scarlet, the demon lord will reign and you and your guardians will have failed their mission."

Yumoto looked at him, "You can't kill me!"
"Too bad…you're the final sacrifice needed!" Kou growled and Yumoto looked at Masuya, "Please! My brother will give you whatever you want if you let go of me!"

Kou rolled his eyes and pulled out a small book. Yumoto's eyes widened as he began to read from it. "STOP! STOP!"

Akoya screamed as it ended, "A-Aurite, it-it's destiny now! It'll happen and we can't stop it!" He yelled, "Fluffhead is going to be sacrificed and we won't be able to stop it!"

Ibushi gasped and the two smirked at the three of them,

"Yes, Perlite, and we'll make sure that happens too!"

They disappeared and Akoya began to nervously play with his hair. "S-should we tell, Maximum Gorar?"
"No." Kinshiro shook his head, "We need to let this happen then. Destiny is destiny. Just like it is destiny for Scarlet to reign as the God of Love."

Kinshiro smiled slightly as he made a small figure made of golden magic appear of Yumoto. "As you can see, he truly is our light of hope, Perlite. We are only his guardians in times of need…and his Battle Lover guardians will protect him."

Ibushi smiled, "Of course…"
Now…they just needed to stop Takumi and Katashi.
