This is part one of a story that I am working on. To be honest I am not sure how many parts it will be at this point. I am let the story kind of write itself.
All I knew as I woke up was feeling drowsy and lost as well having no idea where I was at. Looking around it made me feel like I was in a high-end office with a long desk with a pair of chairs and a couch in front of it, which was where I woke up. Made me think of how I even got into this room.
No more than I am looking around turn back to the desk and women dress all in white and pink with big double DD tits and light purple and bright pink hair with gold star hair clips just light makeup with pink lipstick and her fingernail had Hello Kitty on them.
The other lady dressed like one of the goth chicks from the movie The Craft or so, while not big in chest area was showing more to enjoy through her schoolgirl look shirt with top three buttons undone with black and dark purple hair as well dark lipstick and eyeliner with bright red fingernails.
I did not know when or how they showed up in the room since after looking around I did not even see a door in the room.
The lady in pink started laughing a little while in black just rolled her eyes while saying, "I told you we went a little over the top with this setting to talk to him."
All the other could say was, "Well Shin I'm not sure where would been a better place to talk to him than here, hey at least we are not in your office, it's dark in there at times."
With that, the one that I now was called Shin just looked at the pink one and stated, "I told you Tera we are working on that. I cannot help that it has looked like that for centuries. Dan has a plan to change it, but not like he just changes things overnight."
Tera just picks up with, "Well that's true and Dan has only been the picture since 1997 so I give you that and has had a lot to do with changes at your home, office space, as well as help with your worshipers, even if most are shocked when a human in a flannel shirt and jeans show up to help them. With that let's deal with what we come to do and help our guest."
With that, they looked toward me, who at this was lost and confused about who these two ladies were. I was starting to wonder who they were but what stood out from their talk was the fact they said the word worshipers.
That was when Tera looked at me and asked the question, "What do you remember before being here? Do you remember your name or anything else?"
Think about it I knew my name was Sato Yohane, 32, from Yokohama, Japan. I remember my mother was from Yokohama like I was, but my father was from Lincoln, Nebraska in the US. My father had been stationed here when in the army and met my mother one night while out in Tokyo and ended up coming back after leaving the army and marrying my mother.
Trying to smooth things over with my grandfather on my mother is the only reason got a very traditional Japanese name even if my parents want to name me after my father's side. Even if my grandfather had not approved of their marriage, they said he did not stay mad after I was born.
I did ok at school ending up at 7 in my class overall, other than that I worked as a computer programmer at a local company. Love live wise, I had gone a few dates with the same woman but not to the point where I thought we were serious even though I started to have serious feelings for her.
Beyond that, I like playing video games, reading manga, watching anime, and working at my family's local farm on weekends. That was when he started to think the last thing, he remembered walking down the street going home from work.
Tera popped up and said, "See I told you that he would remember more than you thought Shin. Oh, by the way, you can't talk right now per se, but we can read your thoughts."
The only thing that Shin said was, "Well good it should make the first part of this hopefully easy explaining thing."
Look at them as lost since I had no idea how I got here or what they were talking about.
Tera looked at me with a sad look, "It going to be hard for you to understand, but you're dead technically speaking."
Shin joined in, "I found your soul not far from your body even if I was not there to reap your soul."
Did I hear them exactly right did I hear that I had died, that Shin had found my soul? Looking at them both the only thing I thought was, that cannot be right, then how am I here talking to you? On top of that, how could get and read a soul as well?
Tera said, "Ok, I guess I should as well fully introduce ourselves. I am sure you hear us call each other by our nicknames. But my name is not Tera, but it is Amaterasu and Shin, my sister, real name is Shinigami, even if most people think that name is for multiple people and not just her."
Did I just hear her right did she say Amaterasu, the Shinto goddess of the Sun as well as just say her sister was the Shinigami the god, or in her case the goddess of Death as well as the protection of souls? I had always heard that Shinigami were like evil monsters of darkness.
Shin enraged yelled, "I'm not a monster and I only like the darkness because I have a sister who is the literal Sun Goddess all glowing and wearing bright colors, and you see if do not like the dark color as well. I mean between her and our little brother who is always wet and windy blowing his nose growing up, and I may add clumsy. I didn't know who was worse to grow up with at times. At least they both mostly turn out mostly all right in the end."
Now my mind was racing, the only sibling I remember in Japanese religion for Amaterasu was Susanoo.
Tera just said, "Yeah that's our little brother alright, and Shin was right he was a mess of a kid. At least he grew up and put himself to beneficial use. Who would thought he be a pilot in the Navy? Even if it did take him moving overseas to get him to grow up, well that and Uriel."
All I could think was if these were Japanese gods who Uriel as well Dan had said early.
Shin said, "That's easy Uriel is Susanoo's wife but just FYI he likes going by Sam and well she is one of the Archangel of Christian religion. To think that a boy from Japan, and a girl from Jordan, would meet in college in the US and fell in love. I still don't believe her father is over being mad at her, even if both her big brothers were happy for her. I mean I think that first time in a while Michael and Lucifer have agreed on anything, but they both love their little sister and want her to be happy.
Tera stated, "As far Dan well he is the odd one out. Just a poor kid my sister fell in love with on her night off out on the town while visiting our brother, who would know they get married and start a family."
What a normal guy married the goddess of death?
Shin said," What that he is a great guy and fact he a big movie buff like me. It help the fact that he believed in a god in which are friends to Mom and Dad. I mean old man Oden was nice enough that when he died, he let us be together since what happened to him. To think that son of his threw a thunderbolt in the wrong place and killed my Dan."
Shin took a breath and continue. "At least Thor showed up to apologize to him at our wedding. He was supposed to live to be 78 not just 24 per his countdown clock. Before you ask every human has one, a countdown clock of when they are to die."
She explained that all reapers of any religion can see someone death clock no matter what religion you are. This is why I was there, being just 32 and should have lived to the right age of 101.
Tera mention, "Your dying also messes up a lot. You should have lived your life got married in the next two years had two kids with one of your grandkids could have brought about world peace."
Married, kids, grandkids as well as living to 101 what was all this about? As well as other gods of different religions.
When Tera said, "Look like Shin said that's why you're here. We can see the potential future for you humans based on life choices which is how we know you were heading to get married based on your past actions, that girl did like you. On your next date, she was going to ask you to start being a couple."
They both said together, we are not sure who, but someone killed you off way too early.
Tera said, "Luckily, Shin got your soul before it got out in the wild, that would been bad. At the same time whoever did put a curse on your soul. "
Shin pipe in with, "Normally we try to put it right back in your body since you had just passing away. Some reason I was not able to do that. So there is no going back to Earth for you, so now we have the issue of who killed you why, and how they put that curse on you."
Tera then came in with, "The next issue is you can't go back to Earth, it also means we can't send you to heaven either. The two are linked and by blocking you from one they blocked you from the other."
All I could think is I am going to hell then?
Shin said, "No you're not going to hell which is why you're here, when you die as a human you end up in front of the God(s) or goddess(s) of your religions, as for those who are not religious, one of two thing happens. If anyone is willing to take you based on your behavior they can, but if not, it goes based on where you died. Everywhere has a default religion that guards over a part of the earth just in case of that issue."
With that they explained that I should been sent to them right away.
Shin said, "I noticed your soul was just free-standing right beside your body which is not only odd but dangerous like Tera said. Souls that just roam free end up turning into demons and I am not talking about ones in hell."
Both of them said for the most part, demons are living beings just like humans are and have a normal life with a family house jobs for the past few hundred years or so. A wild soul who turns into a demon natural wild beast form that is only out to kill anyone or anything, be a human demon angel reaper any living life from.
They said that even Valkyries have a challenging time bringing them down. Those ladies and a few lucky guys can kill just about anything.
Shin stated, "Before you ask Oden and Frigg changed who could or couldn't be a warrior for Valhalla and a Valkyrie, but they voted to keep the name Valkyries no matter what sex you are."
