"are you ready?" Aphrodite ask Soul. "Yes goddess!" Soul replied her, and they both hold hands. "Okay! Let's do this." Aphrodite said, and both of them hold hands. ".... repeat every word i said, and then concentrate the magic that flow within you." Aphrodite explained to Soul. "Okay!" Soul responded and close her eyes. "....i still have my eyes on you." Aphrodite said to Zadre as he turn to him. "Whatever!" He replied her with an attitude. "Okay MORTAL! It's time." Aphrodite said and then close her eyes.

"AS THE UNIVERSE NEEDS FATE....." Aphrodite said does few words and heavy dark winds began to surround her and soul. "As the universe needs fate." Soul repeated what Aphrodite said and more heavy wind surrounds them. "Wait! Is this safe?!" Zadre shouted to them, but they didn't hear him because of the heavy wind blowing around them. "TO LEAD THEM TO WHAT IS UNCERTAIN......." Aphrodite add more words to the spell, and this time lightening began to strike around the heavy wind. "To lead them to what is uncertain..." Soul said, and the lightening around the heavy wind multiples. "What's.... what's going on?!" Zadre shouted as he use his spear to defend himself from the lightening bolts they were striking towards him. "Her body wouldn't be able to take the lightening blast." Zadre said again as he continuing defending himself. 

"Booom boom!" Strong thunderstorms surrounds Soul and Aphrodite. "No! I have to save her, before her mortal body get seriously damage." Zadre said to himself and they fly towards soul even though they were heavy wind and lightening bolts surrounding her. "SO I NEED MOTHER FATE AND I CALL OUT FOR HER PRESENCE NOW!" Aphrodite shouted and a big spirit force burst from the sky to cover Aphrodite and Soul. "AHHHHH!" Soul and  Zadre after getting hitted with the blast. "Say the last words mortal!" Aphrodite said to soul while ignoring the fact that the magic force was injuring her Mortal body. 

Zadre who got blasted by the magic forced landed on the ground. He was blasted real hard because he rushed towards Soul at that thesame moment when the magic blast was summoned. 

"So...i need....mother fate and...i call out for her.... presence now!!" Soul manage to say the words and all the lightening bolts, thunderstorms, and also heavy wind immediately subsided. "Ahh" Soul shouted and fall on the ground with blood rushing down from her nose. "So your mortal couldn't take the blast huh?" Aphrodite ask Soul sees her bleeding. "Here!" Aphrodite said and healed Soul. "Tha....thanks goddess." Soul said and stand up from the ground. 

"What was that blast?" Zadre who just got up from the ground ask Soul as black blood rushes down from his head. "Are you okay?" Soul ask him. "Am fine." He said and use it's magic to heal himself.

"goddess! Did the spell work?" Soul ask Aphrodite. "....we are still in the same place." Soul added and then look around. "Patience mortal! Have some patience." Aphrodite said to her and close her eyes.  "NOW!" she yelled on top of her voice, and then a huge magical portal appear all of a sudden.

"Wooow!" Soul shouted as she gazed at the magical portal. She haven't seen one before, and this is probably the first and only time she will see one. 

"Come on. We have to go now before it closes." Aphrodite said to Soul as she walk towards the mortal. "Okay! goddess." Soul replied her and followed. But she noticed that Zadre wasn't moving from were he was. "Don't you want to come along?" Soul ask him. "That's the portal that lead to the mother of fate, the most powerful being in the universe." Zadre said. "So...?" Soul ask him. "What if she can't bring back Dusa or Eros, what then?" Zadre said. "Well...well." Soul struggles to put her words in place. "It's okay! Even me don't want to find out." Zadre said. 

"No! I believe the mother of fate can bring back Eros and Dusa. She is the most powerful being in the universe. So i believe she can bring them to us." Soul said. "I don't....." Zadre wanted to say something but soul Interrupted him. "...I believe. Zadre i believe!" Soul said with confident. 

"If you don't want to enter Mortal! I am leaving you here." Aphrodite said after listening to Soul and Zadre conversations. 

She entered into the portal and it immediately reduced in size. 

"Come on, she is waiting for you." Soul said to Zadre and then entered into the portal. "Dusa! I hope the mother of fate can bring you back." Zadre said, and then slowly walk into the portal even though it was slowly reducing in size.

Zadre still managed to pass through it.

"Arrrhhh!" Zadre shouted as he drifts through the portal. "Whaaat isss thiss" he says as he move pass the portal, while seeing strange confusion star consolations. "Get me out of here!" Zadre shouted, but didn't realise that we was already at the other side of the portal. "Arhh!" Zadre shouted as the star consolations got stuck in his head. "It's not real." Soul voice echoes in his head, and he immediately came back to reality.  

"Why..? Didn't you see that?" Zadre ask Soul. "Saw what?" Soul ask him. "Just forget it." Zadre shouted and then stand up from the ground only to find out that he was standing on pure white clouds. 

"What da hell. What is place?" Zadre said as he sees the countless stars, but it still day time. He also so mystical creatures just like spirit animals flying round clouds, while others were creating rainbows with their tails. "I haven't see anyplace with sure wonders before." Zadre said as he look around the mother of fate resting place.

"I haven't see anyplace like this either." Soul said as he slowly walk on top of the cloud towards on of the mystical creatures. "Hey little one, you are beautiful." Soul said as she tries to hold the half horse, half eagle but it flew away. "Come back!" Soul shouted as the creature fly to meet his kind. 

"Will you shut up!" Aphrodite shouted at Soul and Zadre because they tall were distracting her from calling on the mother of fate.

"Upper gods!" Zadre tighten his grip after hearing the way Aphrodite shouted at him. "Calm down." Soul said to Zadre as she notice that he was slowly getting angry again. 

"We are sorry goddesses!" Soul apologized. "You better be sorry or else......" Aphrodite said and close her eyes. 

She quietly say some strange spell and Immediately and large sun like figure  draw close to them from the sky. "What! No!" Aphrodite shouted at the levitate toward before the giant sun like figure could crush her with his feet. 

"What is that?...is that the mother of fate?" Zadre asked Aphrodite after he was the figure coming close to them. "No it isn't." Aphrodite said. "...That's the mother of fate personal guard. He came here to test us if we are worthy or strong enough to be in the mother of fate presence." Aphrodite explained. 

"Damnit! They never make it eazy!" Zadre shouted and the sun like warrior figure slowly walk towards them. 

"But that thing is huge, what test can it possibly give her?!" Soul ask them. 

"You mortal don't understand! He don't want to test us, he really wants to fight us." Aphrodite said and conjure up her spirit weapon, which is a magicial girdle that have other powerful weapons like knifes, axe, spears and even swords, magically stored in it.

"Arrrhhhh!" The giant which his body is glowing like the sun roars, and his roars brought out heavy wind that could hit any immortal off balance, but Aphrodite or Zadre moved from the position. 

Soul on the other hand couldn't hold her ground against the wind, but when the wind blew her away, she fell on top of the cloud without getting any injury.

"COME AND FIGHT!!" The giant which his appears is now known because he is closer to them shouted. The giant was an half bull, half man giant creatures with sun light glowing out of his body. He may also be one of mother fate spirit animals. 

"Soul! Are you okay?" Zadre shouted to Soul, but he didn't turn he's eyes away from the Giants that was coming close to him.

"I am fine." Soul shouted back to him, and then stand up from the cloud. "...Thank the gods for the clouds." She added. 

"Okay....if it's fight, this beast wants, it's fight he will get." Zadre said as rage build up around his body, and he fully turn back to his devil form.

"You think, you can handle this battle?" Aphrodite said to Zadre after he changed. 

"I have fought beast more bigger than this." Zadre confidently said. 

"Okay! But do you think you can handle the mother of fight guard?" Aphrodite said.

"For getting Dusa back, i can." Zadre said and out his spirit weapon which now have fires burning from the end.

"Okay! Demon, but withdraw back if you can't handle the battle." Aphrodite said and then close her eyes in order to summon her spirit animal.

Aphrodite summoned her other spirit animal which is a huge black and golden peacock. The peacock is the most powerful spirit animal, and it carries and also fly his goddess to anyplace she wants to go. 

"....I will never withdraw from a battle." Zadre said and conjure up a dragon totally made out of fire to assist him in the battle against the mother of fate giant guard.

"Come peacock. We have a test to pass." Aphrodite said and then sit upon her peacock. 

"Finally, something i can battle with." Zadre excitedly said as look up to the giant patiently waiting for them to attack.

"Come on Demon, let's fight!" Aphrodite shouted and her peacock flies her directly to the her the giant waits. "....Zadre what can i do to assist you all in battle?!" Soul shouted to Zadre before he could fly towards the Giant. 

"You have to sit the one out Soul." Zadre firmly said to her. "But i want to help!" Soul shouted. "I know have some of Dusa's powers but going against that beast with your mortal body can be very dangerous. So you need to sit this one out." Zadre said to Soul, and before she could say any more words he fly straight along with his fire dragon, at the giant.

Soul who really wants to help them, find ways she could fly up in the sky to battle the giant.

"Feeeel my blade!" Aphrodite shouted and then stretched out her blades as her peacock flies her directly to the neck of the giant. "....Faaall!" Aphrodite shouted again as she got real close to the head of the giant and sliced it with all her might, but not even a cut was seen on the Giant neck.

"Whaat?!" Aphrodite who couldn't believe that her sword didn't cut through the giant next shouted. "How?" She added again, and looked at her sword only to see it was broke. 

The giant hard neck broke the blade of the sword, and because Aphrodite slice through the beast neck with speed and all her might. She didn't notice it when he broke.

"Yoouuu haaavvveee faaaill!" The giant said each words and he raised his Axe to strike Aphrodite. 

"I am the most powerful goddess, do you think you can kill me?" Aphrodite said and brought out an AXE from her magicial girdle. "Come out me!" She shouted again as her own axe grew bigger to almost the size of the giant.

"DIEEEEE!" The giant shouted, and with all his strength, strike Aphrodite with the Axe in his hands. 

"AHHHHH!" Aphrodite shouted from her part and use her huge axe to defend herself from the Giant own. 

The two axes hits each other with extraordinary speed, and the impact from two of them pushed Aphrodite and her peacock away from each other. Even the giant, Zadre and soul were also pushed by the impact.

"Yoouuu haaavvveee faaail" said again and he regain his balance while still holding his axe. "Yoouuu haaavvveee faaail!" The giant said as he raised he's axe up to strike Aphrodite who fell to the clouds.

"Stay back! Giant." Zadre shouted as he rushes in to fight the giant. "Receive my Rage!" Zadre shouted as he flies straight to the head of the bull, and stabbed it with his spear. "Dragon! release your flames!" Zadre shouted at the dragon he conjure up with his magic, and it immediately blow out fire from his mouth on the face of the giant. "DIEEEEE!" Zadre shouted even more as he repeatedly stab the bull with his spear, and his dragon continue blowing out fire on it.

"Yoouuu haaavvveee faaail!" The bull the shouted again. "What? Non of my attacks worked?" Zadre said, but still continuing stabbing the bull with his spear, and his dragon kept blowing fire on his head, and face.

Zadre continuing stabbing the giant thinking that any of his attacks will wound the beast. So, as he continue stabbing the giant with rages, he didn't notice when the beast raised his other hand, and smashed him with his palm. 

"AHHHHH!" Zadre shouted, and instantly became temporary paralyzed. "BOOM! BOOM!" Zadre dragon began to shoot fire balls at the beast after seeing how it crushed it's master with his bare hands.

"BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!" The dragon flies around the beast like a mosquito as it blast the beast with more fire ball. 

"AHHHHH!" The beast shouted from the pain it was receiving from the fire blast. "Shuuuuu!" The giant beast shouted and then soak the dragon straight into his mouth.

After soaking the dragon, the giant picks up Zadre who was still temporary paralyzed on top his head. The beast then hold Zadre in his palm tightly, and stared at him.

"Zadre!" Soul is seeing everything shouted. "I need to help him or that monster may kill him!" Soul added and then try to catch on of the flying horses around. 

"...That monster is really powerful. What did mother made him out of?" Aphrodite ask herself as she slowly stand up from the clouds. "Damnit! That Demon have been captured?!" Aphrodite shouted as he spot Zadre in the palms of the Giants. "...so even with his devil form he didn't stand a chance. What a shame." Aphrodite said and turn to her peacock. "We have to get that creature down." Aphrodite said to it. "....but we are not doing to be attacking from the other. We are going to be attacking from the insides." Aphrodite confidently said and up on her huge peacock. 

"Make it a steady ride. Am counting on you." Aphrodite said to her peacock and it replied her by shaking it's tail. "Okay! Let's defect this monster!!" Aphrodite shouted and the peacock flies directly to the giant.

"If i want to kill this beast from the inside i need something that will be very effective. What weapon should i use?" Aphrodite ask herself while her peacock flies her towards the beast. "Will this be effective?" Aphrodite said as she pull out a trident from her magical girdle. "Well it is the most powerful weapon in my girdle, i met as well use it." Aphrodite said and stretch out the trident.

"Let's end this petty battle NOW!" Aphrodite shouted and charges towards the beast with the help of her peacock.
