Rikku's POV:

"Rikku. I'm sure he's fine. He's with Venus after all!" said Database, watching me pace.

He was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He just watched me pace the whole time. Ronin was joining him, but he ended up joining Venus. They said something about needing him, so he went back. And that's got me more worried.

"Yeah, but Ronin had to go help them! Ronin of all people! There's obviously something wrong with him! If he was fine, Venus would be out already. And Ronin wouldn't be needed!" I argued back. I stopped pacing and faced him. He got off the wall. Uncrossed his arms. And looked at me 'understandingly.' He doesn't fucking understand. He never will. I thought, pissed off by him.

"I understand your wor-"

"You don't though! Imagine it was your child! Imagine it was your wife! This is how you'd fucking react!" I glared at him. His face went to an angry face. Then he sighed and relaxed. He looked at me with a calm face.

"Rikku.. Listen to m-"

"No! I've listened to you for the past hour! My roommate, my friend, my friends fucking BOYFRIEND is in there in pain! I don't know if he's dying! If he is, I wouldn't be able to tell Shino. He's fucking gone somewhere seeing his parents!" I yelled angrily. Then I realized what I said. I quickly clasped my hand over my mouth. Database looked at me with wide eyes. I shrunk back a little.

"What do you mean 'seeing his parents.' They're dead. They died in a fire or something..." said Database, curious.

"U-Uh..."

Inpu's POV:

"This is your last chance, Cal. Tell them or I will..." I said, menicalingly. He looked at me with wide eyes.

"Inpu! I told you! I can't, so then you can't! It'll mess up the timeline!" yelled Cal. I looked at Khonsu. He closed his eyes for a moment. Then opened them again. He looked back at me. Then shook his head.

"He's bluffing," said Khonsu. I nodded my thanks to him. Cal glared at him. He raised his hands in defense.

"You can't blame me for being curious, Cal." he said, wisely.

"Cal. It was bound to be told, eventually..." I said.

"Not like this, Inpu! Shino will tell him!" yelled Cal. I held a sword up to Shino's neck.

"Not if he knew what was best for him..." I said, menicallingly. He nodded at me.

"Of course! I won't say anything!" he said,a little terrified. I lowered my sword. Then I looked at Cal.

"Cal... It's either you tell them. Or I will..." I said, pacienly. Cal paced for a moment. It was pretty obvious he was debating his options. SO I decided to help him out a little bit.

"Here's an easier way to think. You can drop the bomb on them all. And get rid of this annoying nagging feeling at the back of your head. Finally admit something that you'd never admit any other time."

"OR. I can tell them. And you will forever have that annoying nagging feeling at the back of your head. And never be able to admit something like that."

"Inpu. I don't think you're helping in the least bit..." said Horus.

"I'm thinking of the Pro's and the Cons of doing this. It's just up to Cal to pick the right one." I said.

"Fine I'll say it..."

"Had a feeling you would say that."

Cal's POV:

"His godly parents are in this room with us..." Inpu said, cryptically.

"STOP BEING SO FUCKING CRYPTIC!" yelled Horus. I watched the interaction a little ways away. He got really close to him. He was also glaring at him. Inpu raised his hands in defense. He then backed up a little bit. But he was still glaring. I didn't really both separating at him

"Fine. You... You're his godly parent..." Inpu said, pointing at Horus.

We all looked at him with wide eyes. Even I was. I wasn't expecting that. What the-? That makes no sense. How is he the child of Horus... I thought. Then it clicked for me. Everything somewhat made sense to me.

"It makes sense. If you thought for a moment, Shino's powers make sense. Shino's 'quirk', as his old world would call it. It's light magic, just like Horus."

He paused for a moment. He opened up his book of Gods. Flipped through the pages quickly, trying to find someone specific. When he found it, he stopped on the page. Look at us all. We all kinda pushed him to continue on. He looked down at his book. And read what he had written down.

"Horus is a god in the form of a falcon whose right eye was the sun or morning star, representing power and quintessence, and whose left eye was the moon or evening star, representing healing."

"He is one of the most significant ancient Egyptian deities who served many functions, most notably god of kingship and the sky. He was worshiped from at least the late prehistoric Egypt until the Ptolemaic Kingdom and Roman Egypt."

He stopped reading it, and looked at them all. Me and Khonsu looked at him with a confused look. Horus and Shino looked at him. With a 'their seriously this dumb' look. He groaned in annoyance.

"Basically, he's the god of kingship and the sky. The sun is his most notable one." He said.

"That makes a lot more sense, now that I think about it..." I mumbled.

Horus nodded in agreement. We continued to talk about the similarities. I was trying to make sure that the other part of the deal wouldn't happen. Sadly, Inpu wouldn't let it down. After 3 minutes, Inpu said something.

"I did my part of the deal, Cal. So where's yours?" Inpu said. I looked at him with wide eyes. Shino crosses his arms, also a little annoyed.

"You said that if Inpu said who my god was. Then you would say who my father is. So, Mother. Who the fuck is my father?!" said Shino, angrily.

"Why does it matter? He doesn't even know you're his kid! Things happened that weren't supposed to happen." Shino looked at me with a confused look.

"No, you're not a mistake." Shino nodded, and motioned for me to continue on.

"I know you're all gonna freak out and tell him. He can't know!" said I.

"That doesn't matter, Cal. I know. I've known since the day he was conjured. The day that it happened. I knew, and never told him! Khonsu and Horus will never see him! Shino won't say anything! He knows what's best for him" Inpu argued back.

"Like hell Khonsu and Horus won't see him! Khonsu knows his aura! He has talked to him before. And he will need to talk to him. Plus Horus will meet him in the future!" I yelled, angrily.

"Cal! Stop talking! You mustn't say more than that, '' Khonsu yelled.

"Guess what, Khonsu! I saw the future! I know he will find out if I tell you! He will freak out! And Artemis won't be safe. I'm trying to keep the future safe!"

"That's assuming that you're not lying. For all we could know, you're lying! And you're using your time magic as an excuse. An excuse to not say. I can't trust you, Cal. I never will." Inpu said, angrily.
