three days before the tournament #3

Chaos and Ishtar started heading towards the meeting place Momotaro set up.

They got to a big hotel in the most random and unimportant of streets, it took them three hours to find this one damn hotel but because of the excitement of meeting Momotar again, Ishtar wasn't angry, and because he would finally see Atlas again, Chaos was too serious to be angry.

''Are you ready?''

Chaos asked Ishtar.

''What do you think?''

Ishtar answered with a question.

''You are having cold feet at the last moment''

Chaos answered sarcastically and to his dismay, she nodded back to him and her hands were shaking.

''It will be okay. You don't need to worry that much. No matter what he feels towards you, it ain't hate, and you telling him your feelings, won't change that''

Chaos said, trying to reassure her.

They stood in front of the door for a while but in the end, they did not need to wait for Ishtar to overcome her fears because Will, Atlas, and Momotaro were just heading back from the bar and they noticed their old comrades.

''The future king... You are back! Well done surviving and defending a lot of people while doing so''

Atlas said to Chaos in eximant and patted his head.

''Hmm... Momotaro, I want to talk... with you, alone''

Ishtar said awkwardly.

Momotaro grinned, bowed like a servant, and said...

''Yes malady''

Ishtar turned red and was frozen in place, so Momotaro grabbed her hand and went to a place where they could talk privately.

''Don't bully her too much''

Chaos said to Momotaro as Momotaro and Ishtar went away.

''They are all safe and aside from Sara, everyone is healthy but I didn't find Danny''

Chaos reported to Atlas.

''It's okay, we didn't find him either and this is without the fact that you needed to defend many people other than yourself''

Atlas said.

Ring Ring, Ring Ring

Chaos' crystal rang and when he answered it he heard some great news.

''I and Emma might have found him''

Mira said.

''Found who?''

Chaos asked, unable to accept the obvious answer.

''We think we found Danny. He said that Emma looked nearly identical to his girlfriend and that I looked like one of his friends, and that's not to mention that he has purple eyes and white hair. You might have seen him earlier. He wears a hood and a mask''

Mira said and the realization that that masked jackass was his leader made him laugh.

''What is it, what's funny?''

Mira asked with a confused expression.

''Based on your description, I think I saw him too''

Chaos said.

''Then what should we do?''

Mira asked.

''I think he is hiding his identity for a reason, so we should let him be for a while''

Chaos answered.

********

Momotaro sat in a restaurant looking at a frozen demonized figure of the girl he likes. This figure could move like the real thing and it had ALL the details that the real thing had but she was not the real thing, the real thing could talk and flirt back but for some reason, the real thing just got stuck in a fight with an oni. Or that at least was what Momotaro said to himself in his head, because admitting the girl he likes was that doll sitting in front of him was too hard but then she spoke.

''I want you to go out with me''

Ishtar said as she looked straight into Momotaro's eyes.

''You mean... you want us to date?''

Momotaro asked for clarification.

''Yes''

Ishtar answered.

''I accept''

Momotaro answered her previous question and he saw the red color leaving her face.

********

In a dark alley a man with such great physique, he could rival a god, was walking peacefully but then explosions appeared on both sides of the alleyway and he was stuck but fear not because that man didn't only have a great physique but he was also as strong as that physique suggested, truly a body worthy to house a god.

No being, aside from a god, deserves the abilities of a god but this one being has been chosen by fate to have the body of a god, because he will house the soul of the cursed son of the one true god, the one true Chaos, the father of everything, otherwise known as the ALL, nothing more and nothing less but he has been disassembled by his own children and his eldest son was exiled out of existence. Or at least that's what they thought but the eldest son has possessed the mind of the grandson of two of his siblings and as revenge, he has set out to revive his father, though it would be nearly impossible to do it in the body of a mere half demon. That is where he comes in, the one who fought when most realms collapsed and the one who knows the true injustice of the gods.

''Sorry to trap you but I need your body''

The monkey god said, or was he a demon. Different people over the ages believed in many things about him so no one is sure but one thing is certain. He is the only survivor of the 'War of gods' who will go out of his way to get revenge.

''Sorry, but I'm not into this stuff''

The soul who inhabits a god's body said.

''All of you youngsters, you never get it when you step out of line and when someone needs your help. Xian Jing!''

The monkey yelled and the body was stuck.

''Now, all I need is the gods' soul and then I will get my revenge''

********

''So, when will you leave this body?''

The first owner of gods' eyes asked.

''When I died, you received my power, so you should be more thankful and less annoying''

The all enchanter said.

''This power may have been your last remnant but it is the power of the soul who owns it''

The first owner argued back.

''If I get out of here, I will make sure to kill him, so don't worry. I'm being nice right now''

The all enchanter said.

''Oh... What is this? One from the first generation has started using his brain and the moment the owner of this body starts using his, I will be able to escape''

The all enchanter said with a satisfied voice and the first owner could do nothing but try to warn the soul of this body.
