The Book of Cosmi

Chapter 8: Juno 'Bellona' Cosmi

| Juno |

War. Battle. Planning. Power. I wrote down a plan for this foolish army, they were making me lose it for the first time and I was not happy about it. They were incompetent. I've been cursing them out in Ancient Cosmi and yet they still don't seem to understand what the living ZEXAOS I'm trying to tell them. And then I finally lost it, I yelled at them in complete disappointment and anger. Everyone went quiet and shut up finally. I began to lecture them. I explained that being a Cosmi God was nothing of a small feat and if you wanted to be the burden, the pathetic bunch, the reason why our race falls, then so be it. I heard them mutter amongst themselves, some mentioned that red energy laced around my entire body along with me having a sharp black aura falling across my body. That shouldn't have been happening. Then again it made sense, I wasn't very happy, so I guess anger and Grievance art connected in a way. Grievance was my Omnipresent Vitality, something I hardly used for certain reasons. An Omnipresent Vitality is the spirit, soul, and will of a living being in the Omniverse. Every creature has one. Some are aware, some aren't. Some can't control it and some can. This stuff can be formed into physical items like weapons, tools, or even simply large blasts of energy. It's generally used by those who fight and have a strong fighting will, but it's not rare to see beings using their Vitality to benefit society. Apparently Grievance is a mutated Vitality, it occurred when I was born and within my DNA, I ended up getting this super powered Vitality. According to Cosmic I have something called an "Omega" mutation so we both call it "Grievance Omega." Cosmic also mentioned that Grievance Omega has the capability to divert reality, space, time, really any dimension and exchange some massive damage to my opponents. He said I have to be careful though because the chances of me causing the Omniverse to collapse in on itself from misuse of the Vitality is very possible. Or even bringing back people from the dead. It really made me think, but then I did realize how Grievance could destroy the Omniverse. See, Grievance wasn't like many vitalities, unlike certain vitalities it wasn't able to morph into like swords or bricks, it was strictly formed into large or tiny orbs that caused explosions to such high degrees that can't be properly scaled in power. Whenever Grievance made contact, it would instantly explode causing devastating damage to the surrounding area and people within, but it left behind a residue that many would call "Nuclear Radiation." It's so powerful that upon contact it can melt away any living soul and decay their DNA to the point of being erased from reality as a whole. It can also melt the Omniverse away if I made an explosion big enough. Grievance isn't very fun, more of a curse than anything to have because one slip up and you'll forever be remembered as the one who destroyed the Omniverse. That's if there's anyone left alive to even preach those words.

Back in reality, all the Cosmi Soldiers were scrambling around getting away from me. I guess in that time when I was deep in concentration trying to calm myself I actually ended up building up more Grievance into my body. After that speech I gave them and utterly cursed them out as if they were dead corpses with zero sentience. They decided that it'd be a good idea to lose formation... that ticked me off to an even further extent. They were supposed to be fearless and level headed, not a bunch of Gods who want to cry home to their family. I lifted my hand up from the side of my waist and held it high up, I could see the red glow of Grievance coming off of it, I continued anyways... I yelled aloud

"𝐵𝒜𝒞𝒦 𝒯𝒪 𝐹𝒪𝑅𝑀𝒜𝒯𝐼𝒪𝒩 𝐵𝐸𝐹𝒪𝑅𝐸 𝐼 𝒲𝐼𝒫𝐸 𝒴𝒪𝒰 𝒜𝐿𝐿 𝒪𝐹𝐹 𝒯𝐻𝐸 𝐹𝒜𝒞𝐸 𝒪𝐹 𝒯𝐻𝐸 𝒪𝑀𝒩𝐼𝒱𝐸𝑅𝒮𝐸. 𝒲𝐸 𝒢𝒪𝒯 𝒮𝐸𝑅𝐼𝒪𝒰𝒮 𝒲𝒪𝑅𝒦 𝒯𝒪 𝒟𝒪, 𝐸𝒮𝒫𝐸𝒞𝐼𝒜𝐿𝐿𝒴 𝒮𝐼𝒩𝒞𝐸 𝒴𝒪𝒰 𝒜𝐿𝐿 𝒜𝑅𝐸 𝒮𝒪 𝒟𝐸𝐹𝐼𝒜𝒩𝒯."

From that day forward they listened to me no matter what and actually became the soldiers I wanted them to become. I'm proud of them!

A few days later I walked up the stairs towards Heaven, constantly adjusting my golden hair pieces and certain golden pieces on my black clothing as well. I always got worried when I wanted to meet with Cosmic, but hopefully Cosmos would be there to comfort me. As I walked the stairs up to Heaven, my thoughts ran rampant about creators. Cosmos was such a sweetheart, she seemed to develop more emotion than Cosmic did, she matched with our times. Maybe Cosmic was just a strict leader while Cosmos was a bit less-uptight and more playful. Cosmos was very childlike. What was interesting about Cosmos despite her childish attitude, was that she had multiple appearances, actually I'm pretty sure she didn't even have a definite gender because of how many appearances she had. One of the many being her "True" appearance with either red or white hair, she wore sort of revealing clothing of very old ancient God tradition that apparently was worn by her before any Cosmi Gods were born. But she was very beautiful, a once in a lifetime opportunity to see her in that appearance. Her other appearance had to be her most iconic one, she had this gorgeous curly brown hair, she smelt of cinnamon and wore gorgeous jewelry from head to toe. Often I saw butterflies surrounding her in this form and her clothes were also butterfly based, it was a gorgeous white dress with gold-black butterflies scattered about it as a design. Despite her childish attitude and playful personality, she didn't have the appearance of a child, sometimes. Cosmos was gorgeous. Cosmic was not short of being extraordinarily handsome either. Unlike Cosmos, he remained the same all the time. White hair and white clothing with a Vallen Kigeao trim across it. He had scattered golden items across his hair and clothes. He wore lots and lots of Vallen rings and necklaces and bracelets. His eyes were unreal, everyone would have to see them for themselves to truly understand. They held the entire Omniverse within, just a vortex of everything. His eyes were golden as well and couldn't be scarier but so nice to look at, they sparkled with justice and balance, he was perfect.

In that time of me thinking about my creators, I had made it up these stairs, and immediately, I was greeted with Cosmic, Cosmos, Hestia, Ose, O҉r҉i҉g҉i҉n҉, Zexaos, Verri, Chronos, Adelina, and many more new Cosmi Gods I've never met before.

The silence was loud and the tension was obvious. Something bad happened.
