I began the process by creating a bubble of space energy around us and expanded it outwards. Helena was nervous but managed to use her powers to create all the stars and galaxies. Virgo and Pisces created all the planets and Celena created the other celestial bodies such as moons and asteroids. Hana and Pisces together filled everything with life, both simple and intelligent. I brought forth conscious thought, goodness, light, emotions, and all that stuff. It took a total of one week. In the end, we all created heaven and our kingdom. Then we brought over Atlantis and Hana's kingdom. We took extra care and gently eased them into our new world. Then we gave the universe magic, so now our new people can use it. I felt a surge of Yin's time powers entering our world, which was needed. The others felt it too as it was quite strong. We grew worried that he would manipulate time to use it as ransom to get us to surrender to him, though I had a feeling that he wouldn't do that. Somehow I just knew that he wasn't the type to mess with the flow of time, only create, monitor, and maintain it the same way I do for space. However, I quickly learned, via monitoring the space of the multiverse, that he is extremely strict regarding time, almost to the point of obsession. The last person who tried to mess with time was killed in the most horrific way possible and I deeply regret witnessing that.

Regardless, with everything situated and done, we all heaved a sigh of relief. The creation was done now we had to rule it, which was not easy but we somehow made it work.

We've been building our armies and training them. I've also been training and spending time with Helena. The more time I spent with her, the closer we grew. A true romance blossomed between us and I eventually mustered the courage to ask her to be my girlfriend. She said yes and I was the happiest deity in existence.

All six of us maintained order and balance while further developing our domains and armies. Our world was still very young so the planets didn't have much development. We taught them literature, music, art, culture, and the like. We taught them how to cultivate crops, tend livestock, cook, utilize magic, and live a fulfilling and sustainable life.

We helped our people. We received their love and praise and answered their prayers. It was very busy but peaceful.

At the ten-year mark, we decided to throw a party. It was a lovely party with a live orchestra, wonderful food, and lots of people. We all conversed with the guests and had fun dancing and playing games. It was lively and fun. Virgo danced to the music. She's a fantastic dancer. People joined in with her and everyone was laughing and smiling. Pisces was dragged in by her and the two danced together. It was cute seeing the two together, smiling and laughing.

When the song ended, we all applauded and cheered. Then a slow clap rang through the room, causing everything to go dead silent.

"Bravo. Bravo. What a lovely performance," a familiar voice rang out. The mood of the party shifted from lively to fearful. People murmured in fear. From the darkest shadows against a wall, Yin walked out. He looked around as he made his way over to me, seemingly disgusted by everything. Guards tried to apprehend him but he stopped them with his powers.

"Get out. You're not welcome," I stated firmly. He thought about it for a second.

"No. I don't think I will," he said, with a small dark grin. "Am I not allowed to partake in the festivities? They look quite fun. Honestly, I'm quite offended that I never received some sort of invite."

"You know full well that you aren't welcome for a reason," Pisces retorted. Yin let out a small, empty laugh.

"How insulting," he mocked. "It doesn't matter. I'll take my leave. Before I do, allow me to give you all a small parting gift."
