I feel Azura's energy flow out of her as she sets me down. Rukia suddenly appears beside me. "All I could do was open the portal to you and ask for your help, I got lucky that you had Azura with you." Rukia says as Azura looks to her. Rose and Zen appear behind us. "Damn, we barely escaped that shit." Zen says as I look at him. "So who is this guy?" Rukia asks as Zen enters his 3rd release. "He's a celestial being. Being Satan gives me the previously useless ability to sense other cosmic beings. He's definitely a celestial being." He says as Nephilim suddenly appears in front of us. I see him start to swing, but before I can react he gets blown away. Zen speaks up. "Damn Azura, you're dangerous. You blocked him before we could react." Zen says as Azura summons an energy bubble around us all. She looks at us. "I didn't block him, I was too distracted by the other one." She says as we all look at her. "What do you mean by 'other one'?" I ask as she looks forward. We all look forward and see a massive explosion of gold and black energy. Everything as far as our eyes can see is vaporized. "What is she doing here?" I hear Azura mumble angrily under her breath. "Who else is here?" Rose asks as Azura looks at me. "I wonder." Azura mumbles as she pushes me outside of the bubble. I look back in shock as I see Zen yelling at Azura. As I look forward, I see Nephilim appear in front of me. As he swings his scythe, someone wearing a black cloak with gold and silver symbols on it appears beside me and grabs the blade of the scythe to stop it from hitting me. "No." a female voice says as she snaps. Thousands of swords appear behind her. I stare in awe as she slightly flicks her wrist and sends Nephilim flying far out of sight. "The Celestial Manifestation of Pride will not win against me." She says as all the swords fly forward at blinding speeds. I stare at her and mumble. "Celestial goddess of energy." I whisper as she looks at me. Her cloak covers the top half of her face, but I can see her smiling. "Sorry." She says as she reaches toward me. She taps my forehead and I flinch slightly. As I blink I fall back onto grass. The world around me is spinning. I black out. "Well, at least we can talk." I hear my angel say. As I open my eyes, I see her above me. As I sit up I realize my head was on her lap. "What happened?" I ask as she laughs. "I managed to use my energy to offset the dagger thrown at you by a few inches. You got hurt, and that's my fault. He would've killed you if I hadn't used my energy to move the dagger." She says looking at the ground. "Thank you." I reply as she looks at me shocked. She stands up and shakes her head. "You don't understand. When I pushed the dagger, I exerted enough energy to wake up more celestial beings. I also exerted enough to tell others where you live. I have endangered you much more than normal." She says looking at the ground. I chuckle lightly. "But still, thank you for saving me." I say as she looks at me. She stares at me blankly then smiles. "It's no problem, really." She says while smiling. "I have some questions, if you don't mind me asking?" I say as she nods. "I'll answer any questions you have." She says smiling. "Did you ever have a physical form?" I ask as she thinks for a second. "I don't have any memories before being with you." She says as I stare at her. "Really?" I ask as she nods. "My first memory is putting a slight shield around you when Aziria was training with you." She says as I try to remember that. I have a vague memory of my first training sessions. "So, why did you say I wasn't worthy of your power?" I ask as she scratches her chin. "Well, I mainly said that to motivate you. The truth is you couldn't handle all of my energy." She says as I look at the ground. "So I have to get stronger." I mumble as I clench my fist. She lifts my head and stares at me then pulls my head to her chest. "I don't know why, but when I first awoke in you I just couldn't understand emotions. No matter how hard I tried or how deeply I thought on it, I never could figure it out. But then you almost died and I naturally gave so much energy to keep you alive. Afterwards, I couldn't figure out why. I started to dislike you because you made me care for you. I gave you very little energy when you would fight. Most of the time, Malis would yell at me for not helping and almost getting you killed. Each time he yelled, my hatred for you grew. Then, we met Silvia. The first time we met, she spoke to me. You didn't seem to hear her, but I did. We talked much like this. She talked about her plans to destroy everything. I hated her. When you fought her, I gave you all the energy I could without killing you. It made me so mad when I couldn't give you more energy. Even with everyone else's energy, mine was still the main. I didn't understand it then and I still don't understand it. Why is my energy so strong? Why did I have to have so much destructive capability? While you were battling Silvia, her energy was always positive. She was happy. Even when she died and acted hurt, she was still happy for some reason. I don't understand myself or the world around me. But I understand you. I know you can become strong. You can go beyond these celestials; why else would I be here? It means you will be able to use all my energy one day." She says as I smile. "You know, if I this was in the real world, I might think you have a thing for me." I say sarcastically as she lets go of me. "I'll never understand emotions fully, but I do know I care for you." She says as everything starts getting brighter. I cover my eyes as I start getting blinded. "Sorry Kai, looks like our time to talk is done." I hear her say as a white light blinds me.
