We Save Our World (私たちの世界を救います) [Completed]

Part.2 I'm A What!?

"Y-yes... That's me..."

What!? Why did I just say that!? He could be some, creep, stalker!

"Oh good, I've been looking for you. You're coming with me."
The man demands.
"Like HELL she is!"
Kou steps in.
"I'm not gonna let you take her anywhere, and I'm not leaving her side!"

Kou...

"Fine. Then you're coming too."
The blond says, looking up, and with a snap of his fingers, we are suddenly no longer in the cafe.

"Wow!"
I'm now sitting next to Kou on a bench, in a fancy room. The blond boy, now standing in front of us, bends over to look down at me.
"Now, let us begin."
The blond boy bluntly says. With another snap of his fingers the room is full of men sitting in chairs along the walls of the room.
He continues.
"I'm sure you're wondering why you're here today, and who I am. So, let's get to that."
He begins pacing back and forth, spinning around on his heels each time he reaches the end of the bench we're sitting on.
"My name is Hiroto Sakamaki. Right now, you are in the Sakamaki mansion. You are here, because I need you." He looks at me. "Do you know why I need you?"
I look at him, and begin to answer, with a shake in my voice.
"Um... no."
He sticks up his nose, as if to say 'I thought so'.
"You are here because you're very special and very powerful. You, Setsuna, are the only living female member of the god race. You are a goddess. I am a god. We all are." He looks at Kou. "Except for him."
Kou and I both look at each other then back at him. Kou keeps his mouth shut. That's probably a good idea.
Hiroto begins again.
"Goddesses hold a greater amount of magic than gods. Therefore, many years ago, most of the goddesses were sent away to fight in the War of the Beasts. Unfortunately, we lost that war... and the following war. But that's not the point. Losing the war meant losing many of our goddesses."

Our eyes meet, and I speak.
"So... I assume you need me for... Something... But still, I think if I was as powerful as you say, I would know. Right?

He shakes his head.
"Not exactly. You see, in an environment such as the one we live in, and as powerful as you are; Sometimes, goddesses, or gods, will hide their powers away until reawakening. Meaning, you wouldn't know that you weren't human, but that's why we are here today. Today will be your reawakening ceremony."

"And how do you plan to do that? So help me god if you hurt her, I will bash your skull in!"
Kou says with hatred in his voice.

Hiroto smirks.
"Don't worry, it's easy. In fact, I don't have to do anything." He turns to me. "Setsuna, all you need to do is sing about something you love. Something that brings you nothing but joy."

"Sing?"
I ask, giving them a blank stare.

Kou is the first to say something after that.
"You sing? I didn't know that."

"Well, yes, I sing. I write songs as well but, it's like a secret hobby of mine."
I say wondering why they are so surprised.

We are interrupted by a man from the crowd of men.
"Let's get started already!"
He says in a big booming voice.
Even Hiroto looks a little startled by him.
"Okay, you can sing then whatever you'd like. Just as long as it makes you happy."

************************************
I stand up and move towards the middle of the large room.
I then begin to sing a song I'd written not too long ago.
I start off with a shake in my voice but gradually get more confident.

I really do feel happy singing.

I'm starting to get a strange feeling in my chest but I ignore it and continue singing. Suddenly I hear gasps from everyone in the room, but at this point it doesn't matter. I'm in my happy place. I've never felt so much joy. I won't stop. The strange feeling spreads and my back starts to hurt.
I stop and fall to my knees. It hurts so much. I grimace.
The crowd of men begin to murmur and I look up at them but blocking my view is a pair of white wings.

"Why did you stop? You need to continue, hurry."
Hiroto rises me to my feet telling me this.

I sing again but Hiroto is in front of me and puts one finger on my forehead.
I feel anger now and my singing becomes more violent.
Just as soon as that happens, a surge of power runs through me and my wings turn black and strange beings appear in front of me. They all are like shaped clouds of black smoke.
Hiroto is shoved to the ground by someone, but who? I look up at them.
It's yet another guy with cherry red hair, he puts his finger in the same place on my forehead.
My chest feels lighter and my wings turn a grey color.
I stop yet again and fall to my knees.

This is... Too... Much for me to handle.

My hearing is fading as well as my vision. Everything is going blurry, but I can tell that Hiroto is furious. He lunges at the other guy who fades into white smoke as Hiroto makes impact.
Hiroto is yelling at the ceiling now.
"HEY! He interfered with the ceremony!"

W-what? About half of the black smoke figures turned into white smoke figures.

My consiousness slips.
