Moon's Child ( Yukine x Reader ) (A Noragami Fanfiction)

Chapter 4

I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. It was 4:21. My eyes widened in disbelief. What? I asked myself. That couldn't be right. It's only been a minute? Is that even physically possibly. I felt like I had slept for a year!

I didn't sleep at all that night.

"Are you okay, Sukii?" Kofuku asked. Her head tilted as she looked across the table at me. Next to her, Daikoku calmly smoked a cigarette. Hiyori and Yato sat next to each other. Yato stuffed his face angrily with food. Hiyori wore a similar worried expression. Yukine sat on Kofuku's left.

I nodded slowly. I was tired for one thing, and I didn't really have an appetite. Maybe I didn't really eat when I was alive and my appetite. "Hey, Tsukine?" Yukine nudged me. He sat next to me. I averted my attention to him. He pointed with his finger to the food on my plate. "Are you going to eat that?" I looked back down on my plate. I shook my head and passed the plate over to him.

Kofuku leaned over the table, studying my face. "Are you sure?" Again, I nodded. She leapt over the table like a cat and tackled me to the floor. "Then let's go shopping!"

My eyes widened in fear. If I know anything about her - which isn't much to be frank - I know she'd make me try on half the stores that were there. I looked to Hiyori for help. Before she said anything, a phone began to ring. Yato whipped out his phone. "Hello! Fast, affordable and reliable! Delivery god Yato at your service!" The table was quiet for a moment. He closed his phone and looked at Kofuku. "Sorry, Tsukine can't go shopping with you today. Try again tomorrow." Hiyori grabbed my wrist and we teleported out of there.

We fell like jenga. It wasn't a fun game of jenga. I was on the bottom, despite the fact that I was the smallest. Then it was Hiyori with her new tail. She must've shed her body when we teleported. Following her was Yukine. Then the damn mastermind behind it all fell on top of all of us, like we were a cushion. He took his time getting up. "That was a light fall."

I groaned, "Speak for yourself." The words barely escaped my mouth. Hiyori and Yukine quickly got off me. I lay on the floor for a moment. "You're all so goddamn fat." Reluctantly, I got up and looked around me. It was extremely foggy. A weird black haze was in the sky. We had landed in the middle of an alley. Buildings surrounded us from all sides with one exit. We began to head towards there.

"Smells nice." Those words. They sounded so familiar. More familiar than anything. Maybe because it was the first words I heard when I returned? Floating behind us was a pink jellyfish. It had at least 7 eyes atop it's head.

Yato's hands were extended. "Come, Sekki." His name was scrawled out in light in front of his face. With curious eyes, I watched as the lines of light from his name departed from each other and circled him. The light collapsed to the ground, taking him too, and then quickly bounced back up. He transformed in the air, spinning before landing perfectly in Yato's hand. I wonder how long they've worked together. ( A/N I had to rewatch Yukine's transformation 7 times before realizing how it went down )

Hiyori looked at Yato. "Do we have a plan?" She was in a fighting stance. Her fists were protecting her face and her foot was one behind the other.

"Divide and conquer." That was it? That was the amazing plan that Yato could come up with. This god was definitely extraordinary. Extraordinarily stupid. I kept my eyes out for any strange occurrences.

Yato jumped and landed on the top of a building, and I saw the weird jellyfish soaring higher and higher. He followed, leaping from building to building until he jumped onto the cable wires. It was like he was on a tightrope. Hiyori and I followed, mimicking his movements. I had to balance myself out with my hands while the other two stood like it was a flat surface. At last, the thing stopped. When it did, smaller Phantoms in the shape of fishes of all sorts of colors came out of the clouds. There were about thirty, we were easily outnumbered. Could Hiyori even fight? If she couldn't we were totally screwed. What about me? Did I know how to fight?
