#Sora-Kami

[sweetygirl90]

"Y durante el cortejo de los 100 días, Sora-Hime siempre llegaba con la misma propuesta a Souma-Kami, determinada a no ceder hasta obtener una respuesta."

Un dibujo de Mieko y Souma en el AU, porque aquí estos dos se casaron y tuvieron todo un drama de por medio(?)

En caso de que les dé flojera buscarse la imagen del alfabeto dragón, Mieko está diciendo "Cásate conmigo, Souma".

Trashahime Rewrite: Forest Deep version

When Towa is four and Airi is six, time portals leading to the modern era began to appear randomly and it swept them away.

(Potentially caused by Kirinmaru in the modern era by messing with the sacred tree) but he has an extreme makeover so he doesn’t look like the dollar store version of Takemaru of Setsuna.)

Seeing the sacred tree in the distance, the pair of sisters make their way to it, recognizing it, but are unable to find their way home and are instead taken in by Sota Higurashi- only to encounter their mother, Irene, like two years later when she is only nineteen years old and about to make her journey back to the Feudal Era after being gone for two and a half months. Despite her younger appearance, her scent is the same, and so is her gentleness and warmth, and Towa clings to that memory of young short-haired Irene for the next decade. Maria stays behind to help Sota and his wife look after them, as they are obviously her little sister's future children.

Maria soon encounters an older Koga, who had survived to the modern era by blending in, and is reunited with her precious wolf, Saun, who has grown old with age and has weary bones.

Back in the Feudal Era, six years after Towa and Airi disappear, a moth demoness, Mayonaka, awakens from her restorative slumber within her cocoon, having suffered terrible injuries over fifty years prior from a war that took place in her territory.

(Her name means "Midnight", and she is a relative of Gatenmaru and Garamaru, but unlike either of them she is a daiyokai)

She's been obsessed with Sesshomaru for over a century, and has always been frustrated that he never once looked her way, but upon awakening learns that not only has Sesshomaru has become a daiyokai... but he has also taken Irene, a mortal, for a wife.

Mayonaka is enraged, and sends her minions after Irene in hopes of getting rid of her, but this does little to deter the human, experienced in the ways of battle with her Shikigami, and having InuKag as neighbors and MirSan as friends. And, not to mention, anytime Sesshomaru discovered demons heading for the village with ill intent, he slaughtered them, as he visits fairly frequently to check on his wife and help look after their children- because he is a father who helps with raising his kids.

After two years of zero results, Mayonaka decides she has to take matters into her own hands and curses Irene.

It was a simple curse really, Mayonaka having some of her little moths spread some dust onto her kimonos while they were hanging out to dry, and it started off with just nightmares. It would make it difficult for Irene to sleep, each nightmare growing more and more horrific and taking a toll on her health, but as days to weeks to months go by she is getting noticeably worse, as the nightmares slowly begin leaking poison into her soul. Eventually, she becomes so ill from the curse that she begins spitting/coughing blood until she collapses, falling comatose.

Time continues to pass, but her body grows weaker and weaker. When the Shikigami spirits sense she’s on the brink of death, they combine their powers to cast a spell, placing her in stasis at thirty-five years of age so she would not take her final breath.

Her body is placed in a shrine within Mount Ryosozan, where Tatsunori, her dragon spirit, once lived as a highly respected Kami. The air there is very clean and pure, and will hide her scent. Sora, the eldest child, stands guard, protecting her mother’s resting body at only fifteen years old while Sesshomaru continues to search for who cursed his beloved.

For the next four years, Irene would remain asleep, and Mayonaka will be taking delight in sending Sesshomaru on a wild goosechase trying and failing to find her. All the while, demons have been going missing- swept away by the time portals into the modern era, and Maria, a much older Koga, Hakkaku, and Ginta, and the descendants of the Kururugi Shrine, work together to take care of these threats. They also train Towa in swordsmanship and martial arts, and Airi in the art of Shikigami and archery- as Airi's human blood and connection to spirits is much stronger than Towa's, who has a stronger connection to their demon side.

Shortly after Towa turns fourteen and Airi sixteen, shenanigans happen that get them sent into the Feudal Era. Potentially separated, with Towa being found by Rin and Kohaku (both of whom had viewed Irene as a mother figure, and have met Irene when she was short-haired and see Towa's resemblance to her) while Airi is found by Kin'u and Gyokuto, who note she has round eyes- much like a foreigner- and decide to take her to the village.

Later, after being reunited, it turns dark and Towa becomes human, as it is the fifth night of the month.

Towa resembles Irene the most in appearance, despite Airi having their mother’s eyes, and Kaede comments on this- especially when seeing Towa in human form. Towa asks why her biological parents aren't around if they're still alive, and Kaede informs her that her mother was cursed, and that her father is on a hell-mission trying to find the one who cursed her so he can kill them.

Towa: "She's cursed? So... does that mean she's nearby somewhere? Can we meet her?"

"That... is a question you need to take up with your sister."

"Shion?"

"Sorano." *Kaede smiles* "One of your older sisters. She is protecting her. Ah, but I do not know where you can find her. Perhaps you should speak to one of your OTHER siblings to find out. Shion, being so young, was not given the knowledge of your mother's location- as she was even younger when sweet Irene was put to sleep. Your great demon father could not risk her being found by his enemies, you see... or by the one who cursed her."

Kaede is aware that Irene was cursed and put into stasis to save her life. She also knows that the eldest child, Sora, is protecting her. But she knows not where they are, only what is being done, and if they wish to meet their mother they must first find Sora- and to do that, they must find Hikaru or Akane, for they surely know of her whereabouts.

InuKag and MirSan know where Akane at least can be found, but state that she never leaves the village and is almost never seen by anyone except her parents, siblings, and spouse. As relatives, they might have a good chance of getting into the Kururugi Shrine to see her… but the villagers are very protective of Akane as they view her as a benevolent saintess/kami, due to when Sesshomaru and Inuyasha helped Irene defeat Anastasia.

Gyokuto, a demon slayer like her mother, brother, and uncle, finds out the girls want to find Akane, so she goes with them because she wants to see Hikaru and because she’s annoyed Hisui is getting all the fun of traveling without her. They discover him lounging about in the valley and he takes them to see Akane, though only Towa, Airi, Shion, and Hikaru himself are allowed inside the shrine where she stays.

Akane reluctantly tells them about Mount Ryosozan, but that it is dangerous to visit. Still, Towa and Airi want to see Irene. They have only one recent memory of her- of when they were children and had only been in the modern era for a short time before Irene, at 19 years old, appeared to try and go back to the Feudal Era. Towa wants to see her again.

Towa and Airi want to help the mother who they remember had looked after them so kindly and gently, even when she didn't know who they were. They hold on to that one day so strongly, and to the photo they were given of her, and to the storybook of the Celestial Prince and his Stolen Love that their Uncle Sota read to them so often when they were small, as it told the (albeit greatly twisted over the years) story of how their father once saved their mother from a human lord and his soon-to-be bride, and how Auntie Maria corrected all the flaws in the story and told them the truth of the tale.

They want to meet Irene, and they want to save her. They want to feel her warmth again.

So they go to the mountain.

It’s Towa’s human night when they get there, and Sora has to do a double take and look behind her into the shrine to see the sleeping Irene. Towa, as a human, has shoulder-length hair, and solely because of the connection to spirits her human blood gives her. (Irene's hair grew because of the Shikigami spirits, even when her body was frozen due to Anastasia's spell, the first time she traveled to the past) Hair is viewed as something that holds a connection to spirits, and when human Towa's connection to the spirits is much stronger, and the growing hair as a human represents that connection.

And Sora has known their mother with longer hair all her life.

Looking back at Towa, she gives her the MOST dumbfounded look. “Here I thought HIKARU took after our mother..."

And Hikaru rebuts with a, “I don’t want to hear that from the one who most looks like our father.”

"I think I resemble Mother quite a bit."

"Absolutely not! In what way!? You can be just as cold as Dad sometimes, you know!"

"Well, I wouldn't have to be if you'd just listen to your big sister..."

"I listen plenty! It's hard being the only son, you know!"

When morning rises, Towa is half-demon again.

She mentions she met their mother when she was little, but their mother was younger and hadn’t even had Sora yet. Towa confesses she based her haircut and style off of what she remembered her looking like back then, as a way to avoid forgetting her, and Airi takes out the photo Sota snapped before 19 year-old Irene left for the Feudal Era to show them.

…

Mayonaka wanted Sesshomaru to look at her, to have her on his mind at all times… and had sent minions to kill Irene at first to get her out of the way, but when that failed, she cursed her in hopes that he would finally glance her way. And it worked, kind of.

By cursing Irene to the point where she is on the brink of death, he is now obsessively searching for Mayonaka- to kill- and has been for four years.

But when Sesshomaru finally finds her, he doesn’t even humor Mayonaka in conversation. He just attacks. This infuriates her, and she realizes that he isn’t even looking at her, more as he is just seeing the “demon who cursed his wife”. He doesn’t even know her name. There’s not enough room in his heart to hate her when all he cares about is Irene.

So she decides to take some drastic measures. Mayonaka believes she has to fully get rid of Irene in order for there to be room in his heart for her, because if she can’t have him she WILL have his heart by scarring it so badly that the memory of her will be etched in his very soul- as the woman who killed his love. So she starts searching for Irene.

(Think a very twisted and obsessed Yandere. That's Mayonaka)

When she finally finds her, Sora is there and in the way- trying to stop her. Sora puts up a good fight, but Mayonaka has more experience and ends up killing her by targeting Irene, tricking Sora into sacrificing herself and taking the blow by shielding her mother’s body. As Sora is bleeding out, she collapses atop the sleeping Irene just as Sesshomaru appears, having tracked Mayonaka down.

Sora had bought just enough time for her father to find them, and passes away holding onto her mother.

Sesshomaru is pissed. He goes full dog mode. Mayonaka laughs with delight and goes full moth mode. Giant daiyokai battle ensues. The Inugang and Kiddos all show up at the mountain to see Sesshomaru and Mayonaka battling it out, and everyone is horrified upon seeing Sora collapsed and dead, her blood pooling at her feet.

The Inugang go to help Sesshomaru, but Mayonaka’s minions appear. Lesser demons who despise the fact that Sesshomaru took on a human wife. They end up battling it out while Hikaru, Airi, Towa, and Shion try to protect what’s left of the shrine with Irene and Sora’s bodies inside. Itsuki and Moroha are working with Hisui, Kin’Gyo, and Kohaku and Rin (she's a priestess) to fend off anymore new arrivals. Miasma is slowly killing the foliage that kept the shrine pure.

Sesshomaru ends up leaving Mayonaka a bloody mangled mess, and tosses her down from the sky and into the river below. With a splash, she’s back in her humanoid form, and she is cackling and laughing with delight, grinning as wide as could be. She’s so happy. Sesshomaru is finally looking at her, and she’ll be etched in his heart forever if he kills her.

But he doesn’t.

A familiar scent has reached the entrance, and with it the appearance of hot blue flames that swallow the area, enveloping the lesser demons and disintegrating them all. As it clears, everyone sees a figure walking calmly towards them, and as the figure draws close they realize… it’s Akane.

Akane in her mortal form. The final sibling, Hikaru’s twin sister, the one that could not blend in with society in her normal form, has finally arrived… and her gaze turns to meet the gaze of her father.

Sesshomaru will not kill Mayonaka. He will not give her the pleasure she so wishes to have of dying at his hands. Her body is already mangled, limbs barely hanging on as is. No, she’ll die at the hands of the daughter that most resembles his wife in terms of power and selflessness.

So he turns away. He starts walking towards the resting bodies of Sora and Irene.

Mayonaka is horrified. She starts screeching, screaming at him, that it HAS to be him to kill her. That she did all this FOR him, but… he pays her no heed. So she pulls herself together with what little remains of her strength and pulls out her moth wings, flying towards Sora and Irene. She is determined to kill the human woman.

But Sesshomaru doesn’t give her more than a glance over the shoulder before a massive spirit (Akane’s familiar) appears and swallows Mayonaka whole, sealing her away. She burns the talisman the demoness was sealed in with a vanquishing flame, and Mayonaka is effectively dead… and the curse on Irene broken.

As she starts to wake up, Sesshomaru uses tenseiga on Sora, and his daughter is very confused until she realizes what happened and watches as color returns to Irene’s face and the woman coughs, groaning and rolling onto her side as the spirits release their spell that had kept her in stasis.

Irene is shooketh, and mildly horrified she’s been asleep for so long that Sora is now 19, Hikaru and Akane 18, and that Airi and Towa have returned and are both 16 and 14 alongside Shion!????? Three of her children are young adults now, and two of her babies have returned and are so much older now, and wait, why is Sora covered in blood?

Irene cries, and Sora is laughing and hugging her, telling her it’s alright, and Irene is like NO, IT ISN’T, WHO CURSED ME, TELL ME THEIR NAME SO I CAN BURN THEM TO CRISPS, and they have to tell her that the demoness is already dead. Irene is pissed and upset and going through all the emotions, and ends up smothering all of her kiddos with affection because it's been four years and she missed so much and two of her babies are back but her other babies are four years older now and oh gods how could she have slept so long???

...

Unfortunately... there's still the case of the randomly appearing time portals and all the demons that are disappearing.

The modern era is an extreme danger now, as with all the demons from the Feudal Era being sent to modern times all the demons of the modern era that were in hiding and blending in have decided they were tired of hiding and reveal themselves, lashing out at the humans that had them hide away for so long.

Kirinmaru is the one leading it all.

Kagome, Inuyasha, Moroha and Itsuki, and Irene, Airi, Towa, Shion, and Kin'u and Kohaku all get zapped by one of the portals. They're reunited with Sota, Maria, and Koga, and they watch as the skies grow dark as hundreds to thousands of demons appear, while others are wrecking havoc in the towns.

In a panic, Kagome remembers something from years ago and reveals that inside Kururugi Shrine is a scroll. Hinami and Ren are there, and they know exactly which one she's talking about, and they send Irene to the shrine to unseal the demon and his allies that are with him- and have been for many centuries.

It is a scroll depicting the demon lord Sesshomaru... who had been sealed by his daughter, Akane, in an effort to save his life, many many years ago, and who lost her life sealing her siblings along with him.

To quote Hinami from my Forest Deep fanfic, "Demons existed once. They were in abundance, living in the wild and in their own forms of civilization. Yet when humanity's weaponry began to grow more advanced, their numbers began to decline. Demons started to lose their place in this world. Those who sought preservation hid themselves, while others were proud and died fighting. The few who could pass themselves off as humans did so, and their demonic bloodlines dwindled until nothing but traces of their powers within their descendants remained."

During the era of the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Sakoku Edict, demons began to be killed off. They either learned to blend in or died fighting. Sesshomaru, being as proud as he is, refused to blend in, and fought for years until he was gravely wounded. His half-demon, half-white children were being hunted.

Akane knew he wouldn't survive if he kept going. She knew her siblings would all be killed.

So, in a moment of extreme sacrifice, wanting to protect them all, Akane gives up her life sealing Sesshomaru and all of her siblings away. Her descendants, who lived in hiding within the Kururugi Village, acting as priestesses and priests, worshipping the "Great Kami" of their shrine, prayed to and protected the scroll for the next few hundred years, passing down the stories and legends to each generation.

Sesshomaru, trapped with three of his half-demon children and... potentially a grandchild, ponders over the next few centuries why Akane, the child who could not blend in with society, who lived in hiding, who was the one child he was harshest/most strict with to ensure she could survive, did what she did, and how she died doing so, knowing full well he could not revive her with tenseiga after being sealed away.

And as the years pass...

He gets to see her children, and her grandchildren, and her grandchildren's children and grandchildren. Some look just like her human self or just like Irene or just like him, and then it's Hinami and Ren who are IDENTICAL to Akane and Irene, and he's still TRAPPED with his other children while the ONE IS DEAD but her descendants are THERE, and then...

Kagome's finally come to collect the shard of the "shattered bird".

And Kagome sees the scroll and finally realizes why Hinami and Ren look so familiar, and why something always felt so off about them, because in the shrine she sees a little crescent glowing upon the brunette's forehead. With the jewel shard in her hand, Kagome approaches the scroll, the scroll that has what is so very obviously Sesshomaru painted on it, despite the older appearance and change of armor, and when she reaches out to touch the painting... the image changes so his likeness is looking RIGHT at her.

Kagome is, understandably, freaked out.

She books it out of there after listening to Hinami's story, and Sesshomaru is left waiting again. And again. And…

Miasma.

The doors to the shrine slams open.

Irene?

She's younger, much younger than she was when she had died, and she's dressed in the purple kimono with the blue butterflies he gave her shortly before she originally left the Feudal Era, as an apology for having hurt her. She's... not as young as back then, but not as old as when she died. She's somewhere in between. He hasn't seen her in centuries.

And she's... as beautiful as the day he had lost her.

He watches from within the scroll as she rushes over, muttering to herself. He feels the warmth from her palm as she rests her hand against the scroll, gentle flames peeling away the seal.

And then he was freed, along with those who had been sealed with him.

Five hundred years, and he gets to hold her again.

He had missed her so much.

But it's only temporary, for after the battle she'll have to return to his younger self.

Cap Kakumei Bottleman DX - Propaganda contains too many spoilers. Also lacks triggers

Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card - Cardcaptor Sakura is one of the most popular shoujo. And since anime with multiple seasons are counted as one, the year the first season was released is what will be checked. Season 1 of CCS was released in 1998, so it’s disqualified from this tournament.

Death Parade

Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight - Although it’s rated low on MAL, it’s apparently quite popular on Tumblr. It won against the very popular Sailor Moon in another poll tournament with over 9k votes.

Tai Chi Chasers - Submitter either made a mistake or outright lied about the year this show was released. They stated 2011, but the actual year is 2007. That’s before 2010, which disqualifies it from this tournament.

Even as someone who loses their mind over even the concept of a soothing yet emotionally charged haircutting scene, the Kaleido Star movie/OVA/finale really and truly is a transcendental entry in that genre that clearly comes from a team who understand that after 51 episodes of making a show like this you might as well make what it's actually about transparent.

There's this utterly incredible line that more than just spells out the context of what this scene means, but also makes Layla's relearned vulnerability explicit-- and the way Sora takes hold of her here shows that she's tacitly understood how Layla's changed...

Not to mention the extremely ah, we shouldn't be here reactions from the rest of the cast--

And to the way we see Sora's hands trembling at the idea that she's leaving a mark on Layla -- not just becoming her rival, or her successor, or her pride, but also physically changing her... a step beyond even intimacy that becomes something else entirely...

(of course, the best part is the full version of this scene goes on for another three minutes of sora cutting layla's hair as they think about their journey together to get to this point... pure kami anime.)

WORDS - 5,056.

RATING - G+.

SUMMARY - as it is the first days of the chunin exams, suiren finds it upon herself to steal the sand stone from shinki.

feedback would be appreciated!

i also cross-post this fic on wattpad and ao3.

previous chapter - chapter eleven.

The Chunin Exams had been today and both Suiren and Sarada had been woken up by their mother who had made breakfast for them while they were asleep, when Suiren pulled herself to sit up on her bed, she had remembered the name Kawaki, confused as her head had been in pain, Suiren couldn’t quite remember who the person Kawaki was supposed to be to her.

She had remembered that she had dreamed of Sora, remembered the argument she had shared with him along with the fact that he had told her that Shinki had been the one with the Sand Stone. With a sigh, the long-haired girl sat at the edge of her bed, both hands curved at the edge of the covered mattress as she had slowly gathered what she had to do.

Shinki was a kind boy, and she was unsure if she had wanted to go along with the plan to manipulate him, on the other hand, there was a side to her that reminded Suiren that this was a matter of life or death. She had needed the stone more than anything, and for the stone to be just with someone she was close with, had to be no coincidence, it was destiny.

“Suiren,” she heard a deep voice echo in her mind, shocked, the girl pressed her fingers against the bridge of her head as she noted that it had been Sora who was speaking to her.

She had been frustrated; she had disliked the fact that Sora could telepathically speak to her. “No! No! No!” Suiren dramatically whined. “Please don’t tell me you can telepathically speak to me…” it had been the day of the Chunin Exams, the last thing she had needed was a sneaky Dragon Sprit speaking to her, as she began to bang her forehead with the base of her palm, Suiren successfully blocked the Dragon out of her mind, as much as it had been crazy, she had gone towards the length of hitting herself, Suiren had been desperate.

With a deep sigh, the young girl reached beneath her pillowcase for the drugs she was given and examined it, she had taken none yet, and Suiren had been unsure if she was right to take it from that strange man. Nothing wrong had happened, no ringing noise, so perhaps it had been a short time occurrence.

Though, Suiren had thought she would use it if something did go wrong. Suiren had wanted to make sure she had a backup, so when she put the drug into one of her pockets, the girl yawned, she was sure her mother was annoyed that she hadn’t come out of her room yet, though Suiren was used to being the sibling that got into trouble.

As she looked at her palm, Suiren focused hard, she had been aware she had neglected her water powers, and focused too much onto manipulating her chakra into chaos. As she gently shuddered at the icy feeling that flowed through her veins once a random bubble of water formed above her palm, as much as she had been excited, Suiren had calmed herself, she had understood that if she put extra energy the bubble of water would pop.

She had watched it, it had looked like if someone manufactured a crystal into a ball, a crystal ball. She would’ve liked it if someone would teach her how to control the element more, but if she did, she’d have to inform them that she had gained the water powers from the water stone, hence her family mainly came from a plethora of fire and earth users.

With a smile, the door had opened which had commenced Suiren to drop the ball of water against her bed. Shocked, Sakura stood between the crack of the door, eyes wide, her hand was wrapped around the doorknob, her vision moved from the wet area on the bed and back to her daughter. “Did you wet yourself?”

Embarrassed, Suiren shook her head. “No!”

With an even wrong idea, Sakura placed her hand against her chest. “Gosh---Kami, I should’ve had the conversation with you,” Sakura remorsefully whispered fore she dragged her feet into Suiren’s bedroom and closed the door behind her. “I know you’re growing up and you want to explore---”

“Ahh!” Suiren screamed as she quickly closed her ears shut with her hands.

Surprised, Sakura stood up straight. Perplexed if it had not been any of her ideas she had spoken about, what could’ve the wet spot been?

“I promise you mama it’s just water,” Suiren explained and relieved, Sakura blew through her mouth.

“Just water,” Sakura repeated as assurance before she chuckled out a smile, a look of relief stained in her eyes. “Sarada’s eating breakfast, get ready, okay? I don’t want you late for the Exams.”

As the younger woman nodded, Suiren got to her feet. “I’ll get ready,” the girl reassured and when her mother winked at her, Sakura left her daughter’s bedroom and trailed herself back to the kitchen as she had waited.

When Suiren had finished, she had pulled tight onto her fingerless gloves as she walked down the corridor, the size of it becoming less narrow the further she stepped forward. Her long hair swayed within everyone step she had done and her nose happily twitched at the scent of food.

“Where’s dad?” Sarada questioned as she turned around to place the food down.

“Papa is training Boruto this morning,” Sakura replied and with a short eye roll, Suiren sat down on her seat. “Boruto wanted him as his sensei, thought papa was cooler than his dad, Naruto.”

Keen on the look Suiren did, Sakura anxiously tapped her thumb against the wooden table. “Anything wrong, Suiri?”

With a smile, Suiren began to eat. “No,” she popped. “Just wanted him here for breakfast, that’s all.”

⋆｡‧₊°꧁ ༺𓆩❦︎𓆪༻ ꧂‧₊˚.⋆

The moment Suiren and Sarada step out of the apartment their mother grabbed their shoulders with both of her palms and turned them around, she had a big smile on her face, the type of grin she did before she embarrassed them. Suiren had been quick to cover her face with her hands as she dramatically sobbed for her mother to stop as she began to cheer them on.

“Make mama proud!” Sakura happily cheered and as Sarada sighed while she placed her hand on her hip, Suiren dragged her hands away from her face, humoured on how her children reacted; Sakura had laughed as she watched them turn their backs on her while sharing a knowing look with each other.

The Chunin Exams were about to start in an hour and a half, so they would meet with their mother later, hand in hand, Suiren and Sarada walked down the steps of the apartment complex and moved away from the building, talked with each other as they both admired the scenery, Konoha already had much villagers, but it had become more packed since the Chunin Exams were taking place here, Chunin Exams were able to take place in other villages, but because Konoha, was verily the safest option and had the most participating ninjas most of the time, it was normally held here.

Suiren had found it funny, that even if Konoha had its violent attacks, it was still the safest out of the main villages. When the twins saw their main group, the hurried towards them, met by Raiden and Akane, Akane who had been excited about the whole event had been quick and jumpy on her feet, hands clenched as her nails excitedly dug into her palms. Suiren and Raiden briefly shared looks with each other, both surprised that Akane had not behaved in her usual way, she had never mentioned what had happened in their previous training, especially with how many weeks came by, both Suiren and Raiden anticipated that Akane’s blabber mouth would bring up one thing.

“I hope the training was all worth it,” Sarada mentioned which had caused Akane to look at the both of them.

Curious, Akane furrowed her white eyebrow. “Have you two battled each other?”

Suiren made a noise before the two of them shook their head which had caused Akane to laugh in response. “You two are lying,” she breathed.

“We aren’t,” Sarada easily replied.

“I can’t imagine hurting Sarada,” Suiren blurted and with a quick look of hurt on Akane’s face which had caused Suiren to press her lips into a flat line, aware Akane might’ve felt like Suiren didn’t care about her.

“Oh,” Akane whispered as Raiden awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

With a reassuring squeeze Sarada had sent her sister’s way, Suiren glanced at Sarada, her sister’s mouth in a short smile, which had then been interrupted by a certain blonde, an Uzumaki blonde who had jumped into their conversation, boisterous. Curious, everyone turned to look at him to hear what he had wanted to say. “What is it?” Akane questioned and with a deep breath and a big smile, Boruto turned to where the gates of Konoha had been open.

“They’re here! People from the Sun Village, they’re here!”

Shocked, Suiren and the rest of the group paced to where they must’ve been. As the front person, Suiren had been the first person to see them---it had appeared like they knew who she was, the one in front of them had been a boy, he was striking with black hair and hazel eyes, he seemed about their age, or an age older. Wore his Village Headband around the upper side of his left arm, the symbol on the metal bar being a round circle with the rays of the Sun lined around it.

His other teammates were other women, there was a red-haired girl with white eyes, who was the shortest, and a brown-haired girl with black eyes, she was the tallest out of all of them, pretty, and had a knowing look on her face, specifically a smug. “Ryo Amari,” the boy introduced himself, he showed his hand to Suiren for her to shake, their sensei who was a woman, had stood behind them, she looked like Akane as they both had similar features, long silver hair with purple eyes, she was beautiful, and had looked at her students with approval the second she realised her students came to Suiren.

“This is my team mate Keiko Chisaka,” Ryo points to the red-haired girl, and he then moves the point to his thumb towards his last team mate. “My other team mate, Aina Tadashi,” he smiled. “We’re from the Sun Village.”

“Suiren Uchiha,” Suiren introduced herself, eyes bright, without the telepathic connection between her and Sora on, Suiren had known that Sora was excited, excited that the possibility of getting the Sun Stone was getting closer and closer.

“We recognise who you are,” their sensei said, her team immediately made space for her to walk between them. “Kana Akai,” the woman introduced herself, her voice was deep, but had sounded seductive, she was slim, but her arms were buff, she had reminded Suiren of those Anbu Blackcop with her mystery, as if her own face was a mask. “You’re the girl who was able to stop the Prism.”

Awkward, Suiren pulled some of her hair behind her ear, she had a side smile, flattered that she was known in places she thought hadn’t even existed. “I didn’t officially stop them, but they were quite the group.”

“They haven’t made any sound ever since what you did at the Prism Tower in the Land of Water,” Kana said. “I’m still impressed.”

Kana had then examined the rest of the people behind Suiren, their eyes in awe and in frozen shock, humoured, Kana’s purple eyes landed upon Sarada, Kana was aware she had to be Suiren’s twin. Her eyes were darker than Suiren’s, blacker, Suiren’s eyes were green, like a dark green that’ll remind you of a foggy forest. “I can’t wait to see what you show during the Chunin Exams,” Kana then said to Suiren who had thanked her, and with a gentle bow, the lady began to walk further down the village with her group.

⋆｡‧₊°꧁ ༺𓆩❦︎𓆪༻ ꧂‧₊˚.⋆

Suiren could feel everyone’s excitement, the first round of the Chunin Exams was about to begin, everyone had been in the stadium, people off different ages, nations and villages had either sat down to be the viewers or had stood at the floor of the building to participate.

There had been two panels, the event hosted by Sai Yakumura, the father of Inojin; and Shikamaru Nara, the father of Shikadai. The two panels were coated by two black big sheets, the front of the sheet had the symbol of the Leaf Village in white and every student who had participated it in had stood in front of the large gaps that separated both coated panels.

“We will now begin the Chunin Selection Exam!” Shikamaru said. “I remind you all to freely demonstrate the fruits of your training!”

Sai had then pushed himself to speak. “For Round One!” He said as the sheets that covered the panels were dropped, revealing the symbols on both panels, one panel had a symbol of an “X’ and the other had the symbol of an “O”.

“You will answer a yes or no trivia question, you are to move as a team onto the side you believe is correct,” Sai explained and then he raised his hand up. “And the question is…”

Curious, Akane had shook in excitement as she impatiently anticipated what the man had to ask. A screen behind him appearing once he began to read out the question. “The Shinobi password that appear in volume five of the Shinobi Strategist Detective Story are, ‘Moon is Day, Mountain is River, and Flower is Nectar. Yes, or no?”

A series of confused hums echoed in the stadium. Perplexed, Akane and Suiren looked at each other. “I usually see Sarada reading the book, but I have not seen Sarada read volume five,” Suiren explained.

“So, which one do you think it is?” Akane asked.

Keen, Suiren looked at both panels before she said her answer. “I think it’s no,” Suiren replied, and as a team, Akane and Raiden followed the Uchiha girl to the no panel.

As they stood on the panel for no, Suiren watched how Sarada and her team directed themselves to the yes panel, and with a sigh, Suiren stretched her fingers. “Good choice,” she heard Keiko from behind say to her, and surprised, Team Thirteen turned to look at who had spoken, as they shared a few glances, Raiden smiled at the Sun Village Ninja.

“I see you’ve all decided,” Sai spoke again, his voice which had caught everyone’s attention once had Suiren have no time to speak to Keiko. “Those of you who are incorrect, that is, who…” he trailed before he uncomfortably coughed before he continued. “Those of you who are incorrect will turn black and will not be able to advance.”

Confused, Cho-Cho, who was the brown-skinned daughter of Choji Akimichi furrowed her eyebrows. “Turn black?” Her team-mate Inojin questioned and with a flat smile, Akane turned to look at Suiren to make sure what she had heard was correct.

“Isn’t that racist?” Akane inquired and with a certain look, Suiren nodded her eyebrows.

“It’s not a surprise that it was uncle Sai that said that,” Suiren said and as the two girls started to laugh, the floors of the panels they were standing on randomly disappeared and suddenly the arena was filled with surprised and confused screams.

With a gasp, Suiren had looked down and quickly identified the pool of black ink that some unfortunate students fell into and hastily she had comprehended what Instructor Sai had been talking about, and with quick thought, Suiren had used her chakra and warped it into chaotic matter to form a shield for her and her group to land on.

The shield was in a translucent shape of a lotus, and the skeleton of the flower had shone bright and caught the attention of other students taking part of the Exams, shocked, Raiden and Akane shared a look. The shield slightly flickered, but Suiren used her strength to carry them back to the surface, and when they returned back to where the main arena had been, Suiren had restfully breathed in the fresh air before she landed on her feet.

Tired, Suiren dropped to her knees as she caught her breath, she had been aware she had still needed to practice how to use her chaos without taking too much energy, though as she was solo-training with it as Sensei Ren looked down on what she was doing, it would take longer than normal.

“Take some of my energy,” Sora spoke through. “What you do consumes much energy and chakra from you, a pool of chakra you have not unlocked yet,” and annoyed, Suiren dragged herself to her feet. “If you continue doing that, it’ll kill you.”

“Fine,” Suiren clicked her tongue, and baffled, Akane and Raiden turned to each other again, puzzled to who she was speaking to, but they hadn’t spoken about it.

Suiren had then turned to look at them as her back was faced towards them, and when he thought it was right, Raiden spoke. “That was magnificent,” Raiden smiled. “It looked like a magical lotus flower,” he said and with a kind smile, Suiren placed her hands on her hips.

“Yeah, it is what I’ve been practising,” Suiren answered and as she cocked her head to the side, Akane spoke.

“With Sensei Ren?” Akane asked.

Uncomfortable, Suiren hastily rubbed her wrists together. “He backed out on it.”

“Precisely!” Instructor Sai called out. “Those who lacked courage simply accepted the impending pool of ink, you made the wrong choice, and allowed yourselves to fall in. you aren’t qualified to become Chunin!” He said with one hand on his hip. “The decision in this first round, is the split second one you make when cornered, do you give up, or not give up?”

Reminded of their time in the Prism Tower, Suiren and Raiden shortly glanced at each other, they didn’t speak but had been aware with what each other had been thinking about. “Those of you who didn’t fall int the ink pool is correct! And with that, round one of the Chunin Exam is concluded!”

Grateful, both Suiren and Akane high-fived each other before they released sounds of celebration. “The Chunin Exams easier than I thought,” Suiren said before she began to follow her team-mates out of the arena.

⋆｡‧₊°꧁ ༺𓆩❦︎𓆪༻ ꧂‧₊˚.⋆

As they were caught up by their Sensei during their walk down one of the main towns in Konoha, they were all able to feel the annoyed look Sensei Ren ha don his face, confused, Raiden and Akane had glanced at each other, contemplative if the man had been angry enough to cause a scene in front of the busy area of the village, aware that he had been centred on Suiren, Akane moved her sight from their teacher and to the short girl who had crossed her arms ready to defend herself.

“What were you doing with your chakra?” Sensei Ren questioned and on spot, Suiren had felt like she was being questioned by one of her parents. “I can tell you’re tired, what you did was a big jump! Creating a plane to lift them back up through the black hole.”

“Well, we’re now able to go through Round Two of the Chunin Exams,” Suiren frowned.

Frustrated, Sensei Ren stood up straight. “What you did was dangerous---”

Irritated by his critique, Suiren unfolded both of her arms and placed them on her hips. “I don’t want to hear about it,” she said as she cut him off and entertained, Akane leaned towards Raiden with a humoured look on her face, this had been specifically the first time Suiren had gotten in trouble with Sensei Ren.

“The teacher’s pet is in trouble,” she said as she wiggled her eyebrows and dismissive, Suiren turned her back towards the adult.

“I have no time for this,” the Uchiha girl said.

“You don’t get to shut down this conversation, I demand respect from you.” He ordered and nosy, civilians who walked past them had turned around to see what had been going on and others had slowed down to hear what the two ninjas had been arguing about.

Uncomfortable, Suiren crossed her arms, aware that someone had walked towards them, a presence she had known, Shinki, she was able to see his figure from the side of her vision and had been relieved that he had been here. “To yell at your student in front of a public space is embarrassing for her and won’t make her give the respect you want from her,” he said, his voice had been calm and collected but there had been a pinch of superiority in his tone, one that had challenged the excellence of Team Thirteen’s Sensei.

Confused on his interference, Sensei Ren frowned as he took in Shinki’s disturbance. Raiden had been just as confused. “Suiren has the right to leave, and I’ll remove her from this situation if she still does not want to be here,” the younger man said, before he twisted his gaze to the shorter being who had stood behind him. “Do you still want to be here, Suiren?” He questioned as his protective black sand activated and with a quick thought, the Uchiha girl had shook her head.

“No,” she replied and as he grabbed her hand, Shinki pulled the girl away from the team, the girl who curved her head to the side to see the size of her team becoming smaller each step away, with her precise eye-sight, the girl had seen how all of them had looked baffled at Shinki’s intrusion, her grip around his hand tight as she had moved her sight to the back of his head and kept up with him.

As she had let out a big sigh, Shinki looked at her, his once strong stare soft at the sight of the distressed girl. “Are you okay?” He had asked and as she let go of his paw, she folded her arms beneath her chest.

“I’d like to think that I am,” she truthfully replied. “That was embarrassing, thank you for stepping in,” she said and as they both stopped walking in sync, Suiren curved her arms around his upper torso, caressed by his warmth and woody scent. He had been different than Raiden, even though Raiden had been just as warm, Raiden had smelt like cherries and reminded Suiren of the ocean at day, whereas Shinki was the ocean at night. A dark knight who had demanded respect without needing to say it, his presence was enough.

He had smiled and it caught Suiren off guard, her eyes were quite wide as she looked up at him. “You barely smile.”

“You have a way of making anyone smile,” Shinki said and as Suiren pulled away from him, she had been aware that the Sand Stone had not been on him, but as she briefly put that thought at the back of her head, she placed her right hand against her hip.

“Is it my charm?” Suiren comically questioned.

“Do you want me to spell it out for you?” Shinki joked and with a brief smile, the girl had shrugged as she then clasped her hands together. “Do you want to go back to where I’m staying?” Shinki kindly suggested, and hastily, the girl beckoned her head, aware that if the Sand Stone had not been with him, it had to be at the room he was staying in.

“Sure.”

⋆｡‧₊°꧁ ༺𓆩❦︎𓆪༻ ꧂‧₊˚.⋆

They had entered the hotel building Shinki’s team and family had been staying in, it was a five-star hotel and where the rich normally visited whenever they were passing by, Suiren had stood beside Shinki as she examined the area around her, the lobby was huge, enough to have multiple chairs and sofas for people to sit and talk with their close ones on, as she turned to look at Shinki, she gently nudged him. “How comes you’re not staying with your cousin Shikadai?”

“We visited them, but the Chunin Exams got everyone competitive,” Shinki explained and with an understanding nod, Suiren continued to accompany Shinki further down the lobby while the unique appearance of his adoptive father, Gaara had come into view.

“Kazekage-sama,” Suiren respectfully bowed and with an appreciative beckon of his head, Gaara turned to face his son.

His face was relaxed, but there was a curious glint he shared in both of his blue eyes. “I didn’t know the connection between the two of you was serious.”

“Are you kidding me?” Aarya, one of Shinki’s team mates spoke as she arrived to the scene, she had her hood over her head but her face was still clear enough to see the teasing look she had on her face. “He speaks about her all the time Kazekage-sama,” she said her interference had caused the three people to turn to look at her who avoided the piercing look Shinki had on his face.

Annoyed, Shinki clicked his tongue at his team-mate’s straightforwardness whereas Suiren couldn’t help but find the interaction cute. “I wish Yodo was here,” Aarya continued. “Because he would’ve brought up how obsessed he is with you Suiren.”

As he chuckled, Gaara placed one hand against Shinki’s shoulder, Shinki who had then looked away from everyone and focused on to other people who came from different villages walk by them. “I believe these two want time to themselves,” Gaara said and as Shinki quietly agreed, he thanked his father.

“I’ll take her to my room,” Shinki said and as kickback, Aarya clasped both of her hands together.

“To do what?” Aarya poked and with a short glare at Aarya, Shinki grabbed Suiren’s wrist and dragged her away from them, blocking out the wicked laugh Aarya cackled as she watched them leave.

Suiren had been quiet as she allowed Shinki to take her to his room, it had been a large space, so Suiren speculated that they had bought one of the expensive suites, there had been a balcony, television, a joint bathroom and a vast bed that Shinki guided her to sit on. He had been firm with the way he had held her, but there was still a touch of care with the way he moved her around, the type of firmness Raiden didn’t have, Raiden always held her as if she was made out of the most brittle glass.

On the other hand, Suiren had felt the small sensation she had felt must be the Sand Stone, and as she quickly scanned the room, she had felt Shinki stare at her before he spoke. “Is the bed comfortable for you?” Shinki questioned and with a brief nod, Suiren gently leaned backwards as she pressed her palms against the cot.

He sat down next to her, anxious about how Suiren had watched his every move, Suiren couldn’t help but gently press her leg against his. “I want to tease you about something, but I’m unsure if you’ll get mad.”

“I can never be mad at you,” Shinki truthfully replied and as she poked his cheek with her index finger, Suiren scrunched her nose.

“You’re adorable,” she said and with a tut, Shinki turned away from her, embarrassed. “If you have been speaking about me all the time.” Suiren continued as she moved closer to him. “There must be something you had always wanted to do.”

Surprised, Shinki ogled at her, his green eyes had slightly shaken at what had come out of her mouth, he had stared back at her, her eyes were almost as green as his but they were darker, as if he was looking into the night of a rain forest. He had felt enamoured, and had been the first one to move forward, to kiss her, their embrace sweet and timid, but as every second grew, Shinki found himself to grow passionate within the caress. 

Heated, Shinki breathed into her mouth, slipped his tongue as he could feel himself drive into a heated bliss, his magnetic sand had activated, the sand had rose behind him and had almost overtaken the situation, surprised, Shinki jumped backwards and backed away from Suiren as he had then wiped his mouth. “Sorry, my apologies Lady Suiren,” he respectfully atoned leaving no time for Suiren to react, the boy had left his hotel room.

With a frown, Suiren nibbled on her bottom lip, she had wondered if she had kissed him wrong, but the thought had quickly left her mind the second she had realised she could use his absence to search for the Sand Stone, thus, she had dragged herself to her feet and commenced to search the room but return everything to its original place so Shinki wouldn’t grow suspicious.

“Good girl,” Sora said and annoyed, Suiren scrunched her face.

“Fuck off, it’s for my own survival,” she snapped as she looked all over the room, feeling the power of the Sand Stone connect to her the closer as she walked towards one of the drawers in the connected bathroom, the more she stepped towards where it was hidden, the more she had felt soft tremors shake the floor.

She was quick with it, when she grabbed the object everything around her began to shake while she absorbed the power of the Sand Stone, with a gasp, Suiren had felt her feet lift off the ground as her hair spiked upwards, her eyes went bright and the tremor carried quicker and rougher. She had felt the powers channel through her body and veins, it had felt like fireworks, more intense than the night she absorbed the Water Stone, and once Suiren had fell back to her feet, the earth-quake had stopped, and Suiren returned the Sand Stone back to the drawer she had found it in and returned back to the hotel bedroom.

Character Spotlight: Niitsu Orimageru

It's the shrine maiden of balance and tradition, Niitsu Orimageru!

She's the head priestess of a shrine that's secluded in a forest. This is the Orimageru Shrine, home to the kami of equilibrium, Kinkodo-no-gami. Typically, once a blood descendant of its kami turns 15, they'll be left alone to train, exterminate troublesome youkai, and fulfill their duties as the ambassador of Earth. Niitsu manages the shrine's upkeep, and keeps the surrounding forest's youkai under control. She wasn't supposed to be the head priestess; her older sister Nozomi was supposed to take over a few years ago, but she left the family to pursue a career that she actually wanted.

Personality

Niitsu herself is a bit of a lone wolf due to her training. She seems a little standoffish, but she has a headstrong and inviting personality that strong youkai gravitate towards. She's level-headed and a natural leader, though slightly self-conscious, and wonders whether or not she's really cut out to be the ambassador of Earth. Niitsu is amicable in regular conversation, but her insults can be biting and she has no problem matching an adversary's nastiness. She's well-liked by many, feared by some, and idolized by a few.

Ability

Her ability is inherited from the Kinkodo-no-gami. She can restore or disrupt the balance in anything physical and metaphorical, and trains through meditation and youkai extermination. This is more of a physical ability to make things equal, but she has demonstrated the ability to make her power equal to an opponent's, either by increasing her own energy or diminishing her opponent's strength. Overall, it's an incredibly broad ability that can be disastrous if in the wrong hands, but Niitsu makes no significant use of it.

The true center of her equilibrium powers is the go-shintai of Kinkodo-no-gami, the Kinkodo Spheres. They look like brass armillary spheres with a yin-yang sphere at their core. The spirit of the deity can be directly channelled through these spheres, including its powers. Niitsu is at her absolute strongest when using the Kinkodo Spheres, though she prefers to use omamori (protective charms) and danmaku (colorful bullets made of energy) as projectiles in a fight.

Friends

Her closest friend is Arui Mitasa. They encountered each other when Niitsu was sent by the Kinkodo-no-gami to exterminate Arui as part of her training. Although Niitsu didn't succeed in exterminating the oni, Arui was impressed by her determination, and decided she would stick around in the Orimageru Shrine, much to Niitsu's chagrin. Arui claims Niitsu is a "good friend", to which she usually denies coldly. Nonetheless, they get along well, and Niitsu has even let Arui join in on her visits to other realms.

The High Pharaoh of the Dream World is one of the "realm representatives" she's met. Niitsu thinks Dyzi is nice, but she can't stand the climate of Sarasaland (Dyzi's personal domain), so they will usually meet in Niitsu's dreams. Since meeting her, Niitsu has been noticing a peculiar woman with an umbrella standing just on the edge of the shrine grounds. She doesn't know this, but this woman is Dyzi, who stops by occasionally to leave donations and keep an eye on Niitsu and Arui.

The princess of Yomi is yet another realm official she's met, but this time they're much closer. Honoka Kamejo visits the shrine rarely, but is always a joy to have around. Niitsu brings out Honoka's gentler side, while Honoka brings out more of Niitsu's energy. They empathize with each other, and Honoka has convinced herself that it's her duty to be a bratty little sister to Niitsu.

Enemy

Niitsu, by nature, doesn't have many enemies, but her biggest rival is none other than Sora Kumoriko. He's the de-facto leader of the Kamejo family's royal guard, and is usually the one stirring up trouble. These two are polar opposites in both looks and character, and always manage to find something to disagree on. Niitsu seriously wonders if Sora will ever get tired of starting incidents and settle down for once, or even open up to her, but...

The knights disappear as the painting burns aflame

What is this prattling dream that refuses to pipe down?

Here I stand, hidden in your very sights (shadow) planning my revolution

this is the way, the light that assails my spine takes form as a dragon of fire

into the realm, we’ll meet before long, in the castle to the west

The rosary burns with its surging blazes, ilala, ilala

This recollection, this recollection of solidarity, it’s God’s one and only error

Never once did he claim he made humans to be perfect

Each era is ruthless but finds beauty in its own way; the world certainly enjoys squirming

I’ll seek it out

What salvation do you find in the retribution of the darkness?

O star which reflects the tides of history

Engrave it into your grated heart; mourn the souls of thy nameless heroes of past

this is the way, why not attend the Eden of roses which finds itself choked in tears?

into the realm, your heart has already decided; off you go

The rosary glistens, oh one who guides stray souls, ilala, ilala

This recollection, this recollection of solidarity, nobody can ever take it away from you

The time has come; I am the only one the world has forgotten

It approaches, it goes too far, but that’s fine, for everything shall return to its rightful place

You’ve come to find me, have you? Now, take me from this place

Take me from this sorrowful emptiness, which blooms a brilliant crimson

Say…

The rosary burns with its surging blazes, ilala, ilala

This recollection, this recollection of solidarity, it’s God’s one and only error

Never once did he claim he made humans to be perfect

Each era is ruthless but finds beauty in its own way; the world certainly enjoys squirming

I’ll seek it out

Mi novia se ganó este dibujo por adivinar (más o menos) la edad de mi señor padre(?)

[avionvadion]

Mayonaka has finally been designed~! I also changed 35-year-old Irene's hair and kimono.

Six years after Towa and her older sister Airi disappear, a moth demoness, Mayonaka, awakens from her restorative slumber within her cocoon, having suffered terrible injuries over fifty years prior from a war that took place in her territory.

She's been obsessed with Sesshomaru for over a century, and has always been frustrated that he never once looked her way, but upon awakening learns that not only has Sesshomaru become a daiyokai... but he has also taken Irene, a mortal, for a wife.

Mayonaka is enraged, and sends her minions after Irene in hopes of getting rid of her, but this does little to deter the human, experienced in the ways of battle with her Shikigami, and having InuKag as neighbors and MirSan as friends. And, not to mention, anytime Sesshomaru discovered demons heading for the village with ill intent, he slaughtered them, as he visits fairly frequently to check on his wife and help look after their children- because he is a father who helps with raising his kids.

After two years of zero results, Mayonaka decides she has to take matters into her own hands and curses Irene.

It was a simple curse really, Mayonaka having some of her little moths spread some dust onto her kimonos while they were hanging out to dry, and it started off with just nightmares. It would make it difficult for Irene to sleep, each nightmare growing more and more horrific and taking a toll on her health, but as days to weeks to months go by she is getting noticeably worse, as the nightmares slowly begin leaking poison into her soul. Eventually, she becomes so ill from the curse that she begins spitting/coughing blood until she collapses, falling comatose.

Time continues to pass, but her body grows weaker and weaker. When the Shikigami spirits sense she’s on the brink of death, they combine their powers to cast a spell, placing her in stasis at thirty-five years of age so she would not take her final breath.

Her body is placed in a shrine within Mount Ryosozan, where Tatsunori, her dragon spirit, once lived as a highly respected Kami. The air there is very clean and pure, and will hide her scent. Sora, the eldest child, stands guard, protecting her mother’s resting body at only fifteen years old while Sesshomaru continues to search for who cursed his beloved.

For the next four years, Irene would remain asleep, and Mayonaka will be taking delight in sending Sesshomaru on a wild goosechase trying and failing to find her.

(translation+lyrics) Atheism by Seraph

”wtf this isn’t the new Ariabl’eyeS album” I know. I’ll do that one in a while but ToTK and work are too distracting, I genuinely just felt like doing this for some reason while I was taking the meanest shit I’ve taken all year.

Anyway, this could easily be a 10/10 song but idk, it goes on for about two minutes more than it should. The intro vocals are definitely amazing though and always hype me up to hear the whole thing. Lyrics down below and see you all next time.

Atheism

Composer: LifeRubato

Vocalist:  海紅

Tsumibukaki zange no hi Awaremi michibiku koe Kotowari wo tonaite Tada inori wo

On this sinful day of repentance A voice shall guide the regretful ones Chanting a single dogma It is simply praying

Yami ni ochiru sekai Nabiku ryougen no hi Daremo ga obiete Fusaida kuchi wo narabeteru

A world sunk into darkness Yielding to the wildfire As the mortals live in fear their sealed mouths line up

Tsurusareshi nie Sabaki no sanbi no ne Chi ni shita yurushimo Utau koe wa kikoenai

The hung sacrifices Tune a symphony of judgement The ground bearing proof of their atonement As this chanting voice goes unheard

Tatoe itsuwari no kubiki demo Kowasenu shinri de sae mo

The shackles of falsehood Remain unbroken even by the truth

Tsumibukaki rakuen he Torawareshi hito no yume Kotowari ga tozashita Sono noroi wo

Headed to a sinful heaven Are the ones trapped in a dream For the truth is concealed That is their curse

Nageku koe namida tokashite mo Todokanu sukui no ne wa Furikazashita kono chikai de Yuganda tsumi he to kae you

The tears of the mourning voices wont fade The tune of salvation won’t reach them Wielding this oath Let’s change these distorted sins.

Kono koe ga todoku nara Kami no ne ni kotau nara Yami wo terasu kagi to narite Michibikou atarashii sekai he

If this voice can reach you If you can correspond god’s melody And become the key that shines in the dark Then I will guide you to a new world

Megumi ni yowasare Utau boutoku no ne Kakushita namida mo Kabau koe wa kikoenai

Drunk in blessings Chanting a blasphemous tune Even these hidden tears and drowned out voice go unheard

Tatoe itsuwari no akashi demo Shinjita saisei no hi wo

Even if it was a falsehood Do believe in the day of revival

Tsumi wo shiri abakite Awaremishi hito yo Tomenaide tomenaide Sono inori wo

Know thine sins have been disclosed Those who repent Do not stop. Do not stop. Don’t stop your prayer

Aegu koe namida tokashite mo Todokanu sukui no hi wa Tokihanatta kono negai de Tsunaide asu he tamukeyou

Even if the tears of the gasping voices faded The day of salvation yet to come You shall be freed by this wish So offer yourselves for a tomorrow

Kono koe ga hibiku nara Kami no ne wo tadoru nara Hi wo moegaku kate to narite Kanade you atarashii sekai he

As long as this voice can be heard It will guide you on god’s path Let it be the encouragement that drives you Chanting towards a brand new world

Itsuka mita yume habataku sora Todokanu no naraba Semete mitomete hoshii

One day we’ll leap to that sky we dreamed of And if we can’t reach it At least it’ll acknowledge us

Shuuen no kane ga naru Saisei no koe ga naku Naraba sasagou kono negai mo Aisuru hi no kagari he to

The bell of demise can be heard The voice of the reincarnated cries So I’ll offer this wish unto you A bonfire for those I love

Nageku koe namida ga karetemo Nagareru gisei no chi wa Yagate hikaru shirushi to nari Kogareta asu he furisosogu

Even if the tears of the grieving voices fade The flowing blood of the sacrificed ones May serve as a beacon of light to them Pouring on to the desired tomorrow

Kono koe ga hatete nao Kami no ne ga kiete nao Nokoshi tsunagu kono omoide Daremo ga asu he saku Mirai wo

Even though this voice may fade Even though god’s tune may fade These feelings we’ve left behind Shall let you bloom onto tomorrow For the future
