You didnt see Yato or Yukine afterschool. So out of curiosity, you decided to go over Kofuku's place. Once you arrived, things changed. You encountered a man youd never seen before, of the name Kazuma, along with everyone else. Says he was banished by his master, also Suzuha's master. To make it brief, his master and Yato dont get along at all. And it seems that Kazuma and Yukine got introuble. You quickly went to check on him, and came back down with everyone else. Your mind was at a loop. You had no idea what was going on, who Bishamonten was, or her relations with Yato. You think about it, and you realize you barely even know Yato.

Daikoku: Yukine is still crying?

Yato: Grahh... What did you expect? First he looses his friend and then gets a guy in trouble for helping him. Its painin' him bad and I cant move cause of it.

Daikoku: I get the kid but what about all of you guys? This aint no homeless shelter!

Kazuma: I-Im sorry... I dont have anywhere else to go.

Daikoku: Grahh...

Yato: Awh c'mon Daikoku! Whats one more?~

Daikoku: Now you listen here punk! If you hadnt been in ya delicia-stick dream world!

Kazuma: A-Anyway... I appreciate this, Kofuku-sama... But im worried for Veena. I... I let a shinki die...

Yato: Ya mean Suzuha?

You could see Kazuma hurt, Yato gasp some air and nagged him to stop him from self blame. Afterall it " hurts" his master which gave him restraints. You merely watched them nag as you would stare at Yato's booze can. For a moment you locked eyes with Yato. For some reason he glanced at the booze and his face just took a shade of red as he put it down, but his eyes were once again on Kazuma and their conversation. For a moment Kazuma glanced at you with a slight smile.

A few days after, you met with Yato in a park. He looked exhausted as he sat on a low bench. He kept on whining on how Yukine has stayed in bed for days.

Yato: I really dont know what to do with him...

Y/N: I dont blame him... Its hard.

Yato: Maybe you could talk to him?

Y/N: I would try but... Its best if he has time for himself. What about you?

Yato: Me? Dunno...

Y/N: Oh... H-How's Kazuma?

Yato: Normal, I guess. Dunno what he's thinking though...

Y/N: I see...

Yato: But what about you? You got test coming up, right? You could pray to me to pass. Just five yen.~

You smiled but suddenly Yato got up infront of you, as if shielding you, staring at a dark corner. His shinning blue eyes narrowed as if stalking prey. You felt suddenly cold as Yato's voice ran icyly with a slight smile. A girl stood there with light pink hair and a puffy skirt, gripping onto a long staff with sparks.

Yato: Hello. Can I help you?

" I am Aiha. Shinki of Bishamonten."

Yato: A cursed byakujô staff... Did you get that from Bishamon, too?

She began to wield the staff dangerously as it sparked i  shades of purple.

Aiha: You are Ané-sama's nemesis...! I do its all for her...!

Yato: Get back!

Everything blasted as you were pushed away by Yato, the park shook and the wind howled angrily.

Yato: Damn that Bishamon! Sending a shinki after me! Did you come after me because I cant use Sekki... I'll ask her...

Yato lashed up as he engaged with Aiha, in the air as the attaked the girl. Aiha missed him as he lashed at her in the back. Aiha gasped on pain as the sparks would illuminate the park in flasing purple and white. You were on a corner as you seemed helpless as your heart thumped loudly. You wanted to help, but how...?! Yato looked so exauhsted and without Yukine... All you could do was be there and stay safe for Yato.

Aiha: How dare you treat a girl like that?!

Yato: So what if your a girl? The whole " women and children" thing doesnt matter to gods!

You felt your skin crawl with goosebumps at his words. It doesnt matter to gods... Because they are gods. These words werent leaving your mind anytime soon. They were going to pick at you for a long time.

Yato: You got me because im unarmed, didnt you?! Think you could beat me? I killed your friends! I am Yato!

" smells nice..."

Y/N: P-Phantom...!

Yato: W-What?! Where are they coming from?! Gahh!! Bring it on! Five star meal! Over here!

Y/N: No! Yato! Wait...!

You wanted to run after him. He couldnt! He wasnt feeling well. But as you stepped first you were grabbed by a series of webs as they tangle on you. You fell flat as you were bound by strong cowwebs. You saw the phantom approach you. You were striken with expected fear.

Aiha: Enough.

The phantom halted and your eyes were wide as you looked at both figures. S-She stopped the phantom? She's controlling them? Yato and Yukine told me a thing or two... But You didnt know you could do that... You heard the rattling of small bells that caugh your attention.

" Ran away cause he thought the danger would go to him... That backfired, didnt it?"

You saw a figure kneel next to you. A man with white, long locks and chocolate skin, drapped in a white attire holding a jar with an eye on it.

" Y/N... Hello there..."

Aiha: Hurry Kugaha sensei...

Kugaha: I know...

" Kugaha! Aiha! Restraint!"

You looked up and saw Kazuma. Your heart swelled with relief. Kugaha and Aiha were somehow bound and Kazuma came to your aid.

Y/N: Kazuma! What are you doing here?

Kazuma: I cant believe this... I was looking for Yato... Something was bothering me. But to think I'd find this... Where did you get all this! Curses corrupt shinki! Both of you are using your names to manupulate phantoms and interphering with the mortal world! This is serious! Our names are our proof of humani-

"aling."

Kugaha slightly moved as Kazuma was in shock. He wasnt supposed to move... This is bad...

Kazuma: Restraint! Restraint! H-How are you moving?! Your bound by the name of Kugaha!

He kept coming forth in a slow manner that only made your stomach fall to the lowest of pits.

Kugaha: It was a shame she didnt excommunicate you... But it was a happy mistake. If not... I wouldnt be able to cast a spell on you...

" Kazuma... Slumber..."
