"We need to get to the goddess of creation. We need to stop Kiyo and the shadow figure from killing everyone in the world." I said to sakura.

"Yeah well, how do we do that? Without him noticing what we are doing?" Sakura asked me.

"We just need to use the airplane and not get caught." I replied.

"But how will he not notice us?" She asked me.

"He is back in Manchester. He won't see us." I reassured her.

"You promise Keres?" She asked warily.

"Yes I promise." I replied.

"Alright then. Let's get going. Our plane is here." She said to me, calmly.

We walked to the plane where the walkway opened up. We showed our tickets to the attendant. We walked into the plane and sat down. Every other passenger got on as the plane lifted off. A woman in her late 30's walked towards us and sat next to us. She looked at us and smiled.

"So I heard you're looking for a goddess. Who is the goddess you're looking for?" She asked.

"The goddess of reincarnation." Sakura blurted out.

"Ah, So you're looking for my sister Rena. She is currently somewhere else." The woman said.

"Wait. Who are you ma'am?" I asked her.

"Oh, silly me. I forgot to introduce myself. I'm the river goddess. My name is Emi. What's your's?" Emi asked.

"My name is Keres. And my sister here is named Sakura." I said to Emi.

"So How do you expect to get to my sister?" Emi Asked us.

"Well Ai told me that She was in japan. So that is where we will start." I said to Emi.

"Wait. Ai The goddess of reincarnation has shown herself to you?!?!" Emi said shocked.

"Yes she has. A bunch of times to help me with my life problems." I told Emi.

"That is surprising. You must really be special then. She never does that to people." Emi told us.

"We are going to her to try and recruit some help for the war that's going to be unfolding. If we can get the gods and goddesses to join our side then we will have a chance." I said quickly.

"Oh well, I'm sorry to say this but it's not only the gods and goddesses that protect this world." Emi told us.

"What else is there?" I asked her.

"There's the angels, fallen angels and devils that also control the balance of the earth." She told us.

"Then how do we get them to help us?" I asked her.

"That is up to you. Do you really want their help? Or can you do this with all the gods and goddesses?" She asked me.

"If possible I would like to see if they could be our last line of defense for this war." I told her.

"Alright then, I will try to get them to help your cause. I can't guarantee they will help. Especially not the demons." She said to me, calmly.

"As long as we have some sort of last line I'll be fine." I told her.

"Well then let's make a deal. I'll tell you the location of Rena. And in return you keep us gods and goddesses alive. Someone is out to kill us. And he will stop at nothing to do that." She told us.

"I know who that person is." I replied to her.

"Who is it? She asked me.

"He's my brother Emi. My brother is after all your powers so he can kill me and take my power." I said to her, confidently.
