Ash
"Let me guess you need me now otherwise the time will pass and the next favor I will have to owe you will be far more dangerous and life threatening." I said with a sigh.
"Got it in one."
"Well I do owe you and I would prefer not having the second option come to light. So how do we do this thing?"
"Simple put out a prayer so I can locate you then I will pick you up." Rhea sounded a little too happy.
"Ash are you sure? This is a favor from a god they are never simple. In fact they are worth more to them than souls." Alita warns.
She is right Ash. Getting caught up in god games isn't something you are ready for." Inari says.
"Well while it sounds like I have a choice I do owe her for saving us and I may not seem like it but I am terrified of see my mother....."
"Oh we know." They replied in unison. Man that is starting to get creepy. A memory popped into my head from when I was 6.
----------------------
"Son this is man lesson number 22. If two women start to finish each others sentences or speak the same thing at the same time this can only spell bad news for the man in the situation. Remember this son." My father is reciting the man lessons to me.
"But daddy auntie and mommy do both of those things alot. What does that mean?"
My dad got a faraway look in his eyes and gave me one simple sentence.
"It means son that daddy has had a long life."
----------------------
I remember the look he had after saying that and it wasn't good. It was the look of a man beaten into submission!
...........
Oh shit! Is that happening to me! I always thought the man lessons were a joke growing up but now I see they were incredible advice from a man who suffered but placed his hopes on his son!
"I am so sorry dad!" Tears came to my eyes. "Had I known I would've paid attention more attention and probably blackmailed you less against mom! For now on I will follow your teachings! Your suffering shall not be in vain!"
I shouted this to the depths of my soul.
--------------------------------
Tim Falls Sr. (At that moment.)
"Huh? Hey Tim why are you crying?" My coworker Rick asks.
"I don't know but I feel as if something has been lifted from my shoulders like everything that has happened throughout life has at this moment been worth it and from now on everything will be ok.....Yeah everything will be ok."
He gave me a knowing look and nodded.
Tears still fell down and I went back to work.
--------------------------------
Ash
"Hey Ash why are you crying?" Alita gently asks.
"Its a guy thing don't worry about it."
The girls gave me a odd look. Which I ignored then decided to send out the prayer. Mom can wait an extra day or two right?
.....
Maybe I should call...Before I could think more on the subject Rhea appears in front of me. My eyes glued to her body and drool was leaking from my mouth.
The reason being she was Dress exactly like Jessica Rabbit. Just minus the red hair add silky dark black hair and the picture completes. When you are young and you see someone like Jessica Rabbit you develop a crush and years later when you see someone dressed like her and damn do they look good your first thought is going to be. She will be mine. You can be married with kids and this thought would pass your mind.
Sure her hair color didn't match but who gives a damn!? Everything else was perfect. The tight red dress that showed a lot of leg and emphasized her breasts. Her hair done up to cover one side of her face. My goddess this sight is awesome.
Rhea looked at me with an amused smile."Like what you see?"
"That would be an understatement."
I could feel two bursts of anger that had some thinly veiled threats coming from my soul. What the hell? Is this really something to be angry about? I mean I have had sex with you guys riding shotgun. Of course theres no chance in hell I would say this to them.
Rhea let that laugh that I liked so much, placed a hand on my shoulder, and in a blink we were somewhere else. The place she brought me to was odd. It was all white and impossibly clean. Kinda like government facilities. The only difference was all up in the air instead of a roof were golden clocks. Each one telling a different time.
"So probably a stupid question since I probably already have a pretty good idea but where are we?"
"At a friends."She replies.
"....Right...."
"Before we go any further there are some things that need to be done."
"Hmmm?"I turn away from looking at the clocks and look at her.......
"Oh shit War!" I go to full power right away and turn the girls into their weapon forms.
"Now theres no need for that. Pet here is a good girl now. Isn't that right Pet?"
I looked in disbelief between the two of them. Pet? She keeps War on a collar and leash and calls her Pet?
"Pffftt hahahahahahahahahahahaha oh my goddess this is amazing!"I continued to laugh for a few minutes. I could feel the girls rolling around in my soul as well.
"Are you done yet you little bastard!"I heard War-no Pet snarl.
"Actually my parents are married. Also while I may be short I can assure you I am not little."I added a suggestive wink at the end.
"I swear you will pay for this brat!"
"Hey Rhea mind if I do something?"I ask
She raises an eye but nods. I smile wider than a kid on the day after Christmas.
I pour my holy energy into my body. I pulse lighting throughout every pore. Then in a blink I slam my fist into Pet's stomach. She flies away at top speed and smashes into a golden clock up top. Which surprisingly didn't break. Then she falls and slams into the ground blood leaking from her mouth and head.
Damn that felt better than sex! I mean I think I - nope definitely came a little.
"Now was that necessary?"Rhea asks.
"Yes."
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
She shakes her head at me."Now no more interruptions we need to get a few thing out of the way before I have you do my favor. First have the angel and kitsune in you soul come out."
I froze at her words.
"....Girls?...."
They didn't reply instead they came out in full form not the small versions of normal.
"We greet you great goddess." They finished with a bow.
"Ok who they hell are you two and what have you done with my Alita and Inari?"I ask
They give me a look that says not now but Rhea answers me.
"This is the way to greet a god you know."
"Well ok...but I am going to tell you now I am never doing that unless you are dressed as Hinata, Kurumi, or Robin."
"Why are two out of the three Japanese?"
"Technically all three are and because I may have a bit of an anime cosplay fetish."
All four women present gave me looks that hurt even the one from Pet hurt!
I just crossed my arms and said."Dont judge me!"
"Anyway I would ask how you found out about them but I can take a guess. Laverna right?"
She gives a small nod."Does this upset you?"
"Not really I was only hiding them to save on later problems. Plus they insisted."
"And it was foolish of them!"She then whirls towards the girls.
"How could you two be so irresponsible! You should have gone to a god right away to be separated! Now you have been missing for far to long a period of time and each of your sides have people out in droves looking for you! Do you have any idea at what would have happened if one of your enemies or worse gods found out you were soul tied to a human teenager!?"
Alita and Inari at that moment looked like two kids who just got caught sneaking into the cookie jar.
"Seriously who the hell are you two!?" Nobody answered me.
"Now heres what is going to happen I am going to separate you three. Although since you fused parts of his soul and yours to make those weapons you will still be linked at least this way a fucking celestial war wont start! I mean honestly! This whole situation is messed up not to mention you have inadvertently created a new race that is also outside of fate! The powers girls this has to be done."
With that she waved her hands and I felt like something left me. I felt empty and slightly alone.
"Damn does this mean they are going to go away?"I said inside my mind. Although this time I had no one to respond and I felt a little worse.
I looked at the girls and gave them a forced smile."Congrats girls you are finally free....."
They both turned to me and gave me happy smiles. Which hurt more than them being separated.
"Now I am going to send you two to your superiors to get things settled."
At that the girls are startled and ask her to wait. Then they came up to me.
"Ash dont think this is the last time you will see us. Don't worry we will be fine just try not to get your self killed before we meet again."With that Alita grabbed me and pulled me into a kiss.
A little dazed when she let go she turned to Rhea and nodded. Then in a flash she was gone.
"The angel was right this isn't goodbye. And here is a promise if you sleep with any kitsune before we meet I will castrate you!" She also finished with a kiss then was gone.
I stood there in a daze with a stupid smile on my face. Mental note:Avoid castration.
"Seriously are all immortals cradle robbers?"Pet said with disgust.
I shot a bolt of lighting at her for ruining my moment. Then to take my frustration out I got ready to beat the hell out of her but Rhea stopped me and pulled me into a hug.
"They said they would see you again trust them okay?"At her words I calmed down. Tears were threatening to fall but I cried once today and man lesson 31 you are allowed one cry for manly reasons a month.
"Now before I send you on my favor I need to ask if you will talk with Laverna? I honestly suggest you at least hear her out. Yes I know she tried to kill the girls but she only has good intentions for you despite the way she went at it. But I will understand if you say no." Rhea says.
I wanted to say no right away but something stopped me instead I told her I would think about it.
Rhea nodded her head and then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching.
"Ah your driver has arrived Ash!" She then turned me to see a kid that looked to be 13 with a white hoodie that said Time Masta!,blue jeans, and for some reason a pair of D.Cs. He had wild stark white hair and piercing gold eyes.
"This cannot be who I think it is."
"Oh and who do you think I am brat?"The boy said.
"Brat?Have you taken a look in the mirror brat?"I replied
I felt a crushing power go over me but then fade immediately.
"It would be best not to comment on his appearance he is a bit touchy about it."Rhea wispers to me.
"Are you trying to tell me this is the fucking god of time Chronos!?"I shout.
"Let me guess you were expecting someone who looked like Gandalf the white?"He says with an eye roll.
"Honestly yea."
I hear him mumble something about "Fucking humans." but didn't catch the rest.
"Wait if you need a god of time to be my driver then....What the fuck do you need me to do!?"
"Not much I just need you to go to the morning of April 25 1986, and pick somebody up."
That date sounded familiar. But I couldn't place it. They only notable thing that happened then was--
"Oh no. You cant be planning to send me there. Please tell me you not-
"Sending you to Chernobyl? Yes thats exactly where you are headed."
I broke man lesson 31. Sorry dad.
------------------------------------------
I can guess at a few comments but yes it was time it happened and no I am not done with them. I love them as characters and plan on giving them bigger roles than mascots. So please dont bug me about it.
