The Power of Izanagi
Chapter 1: Youth: Everything but the Rain

I now sat on the ground as I gazed at him. Tsukuru was now floating above in the sky as he rose towards a small fracture in the sky. In a beam of light, he was shrouded with even more power. I didn't understand what could've happened. What went wrong? He was so calm and silent, there couldn't have been a reason for this to happen. But sadly, there was.

I turned to see Mariko. She was unemotional. There wasn't a gleam of desperation, no sadness, nothing. She gazed at him with a blank expression. Almost as if she were unfazed by his decision. Surrounding me the others lied. Noah was to my left unconscious and beaten. I wanted to do something about this but I was powerless.

Tsukishima, was ok. He kneeled on the ground as he closed his left eye out of sheer pain. I knew what he was going to do. He was going to use a spell from that book of his. It was his last resort move, but the thing about that was. How much longer could he go?

He rose to his feet as he sighed. "Tsukuru!" He called out as he stopped and retreated back down towards him. Tsukuru smiled as he flipped his hair back leaving on strand of hair down almost instictively proud of that one.

"Tsukishima." He smiled.

"What is it that you seek to obtain from all of this? All that this violence will cause is nothing but madness. I've learned what it means to kill everything. I know what it means to be truly alone, do you wish to die alone?"

Tsukuru closed his eyes as he began to laugh. "Your words mean nothing. I could careless about this world, or suffurage in the end, all I'm after is the Power of Izanagi."

My entire by began to shiever as I realized what it was he was speaking of.

"The power of Izanagi?" Tsukishima wondered. "And what exactly is that? Do you wish to be come the God of Creation and life itself?"

"Something like that." Tsukuru smiled. "It will be revealed in all due time, but as for this pathetic place, it's nothing but a stepping stone for me. I will destroy you all. In due time, you all will fall to me and my army of monsters. I will rise the ones of destruction and we shall lay waste to you all and then to the earth. Soon after I conquer the earth, I shall rise to the heavens and slaughter the Gods themselves."

"And you think the Gods aren't aware of your betrayle!" I called out. "Kotoamatsukami built this place, and Kotoamatsukami knows of everything that has taken place here. In all due time, we shall send you to the deepest parts of Yomi!"

In a flash of movement, he disappeared. Seconds later he appear right before me as his eyes settled and he grasped my chin in his hand. "Yomi will be destroyed soon enough, I shall rise the Gods of Yomi, the ones that Izanami created long ago, and when that happens even the wrath of Susanoo won't be enough to stop them."

Releasing my chin he walked away as the portal closed he vanished to leave a withering purple tulup. I gazed at it wondering what it was that we had walked into.

"Tsukishima, can you heal everyone here?" I asked with my eyes fixed on the flower.

He rose with a grunt as he walked over. "Yes, I can heal off you together." Taking a deep breath, he opened his left eye and time itself stopped. For five seconds, I couldn't do anything. Breath, interperate, think or even see. In a brisk wind, I returned back to light as everyone woke up from their colma.

Kushina was now back alive. He had died so early during the fight, that I had forgotten about her. I wondered what Noah would say, but he surprised all of us, by being quiet. I took a deep breath and rose to have an ominous explosion.

I turned to see the fixed sport with the flower as a woman walked out of it. She had black white eyes and long brown hair sporting a long dress made of various patterns. She seemed to be beautiful, but I knew it was all a disguise.

"It's been forever since, I meet with one of you. Isn't that right, Mariko." The woman smiled as she let loose extreme power. I keened my eyes to see a hidious face and body, her body was rotting and I could teel I knew which goddess this was.

"Izanami." I murmured as she smiled.

"My dear Mage, nice to finallly the rest most of you." The goddess smiled as she walked through us six confused teens.
