Jirou looked at the mess he made and sighed "I didn't expect it to get this...bloody." Then he wipes the blood on his face before heading out of the parking space.
Jirou then went home that night, exhausted.
The next day, Jirou is woken up by the same voice that helped him last night. It's time to wake up, human. Jirou rolled around his bed before finally waking up. "Who's speaking to me..." Jirou looked around and saw that he's the only one in the room.
Then it spoke to him once more, It's morning human. Jirou was startled, not knowing who's speaking to him. He raised his voice wanting to know who's speaking to him. "WHO ARE YOU?! W-WHERE ARE YOU!?"
Jirou then got up and went to the corner of his room, holding a lamp for defense. "S-show yourself..." The voice speaks once more.
I couldn't possibly show myself to you for I reside inside your head.Jirou then sat down still processing what the voice in his head said.
"You...I remember now...what happened last night, did I really killed that thing..what even was that thing." Jirou then went to check his face on the mirror, seeing the injury he got from the creature is now stitched. "My face..it's ruined..." He then sat down and calms down a little.
"So... You're the voice I heard inside that parking space last night, and now your consciousness is inside my head." He asked, wanting answers from the thing inside his head.
Yes, that's exactly right. My consciousness transferred the moment my eyes merged, and now you get to use my abilities... The thing said to him, Jirou then was overwhelmed with all this information. "Abilities? Like what I did last night? That was one of your abilities?" He asked the thing inside his head, the thing then replied. That's certainly right, the claws was my ability...and I could confidently say you're good at using it.
"Who are you really... I want to at least know who...or what is living inside of my head." The thing then spoke in a confident tone. I am known as Deity, I am a powerful being. And now that I'm living inside you. More of those things will come for you. "Wait...more of those things will come for me?! Wh-why?!" He asked not knowing what to do.
You see, my eye is very special... Now that you took it out of the jar that's been holding it for centuries. It's aura is now scattered around, sending signals that I, Deity is back to life. Deity said in a smug yet warning way.
"What am I...what am I going to do, you said more of those things will come for me now that you're back to life." Deity then reassured Jirou, telling him how to protect himself.
Use my abilities and kill them, it's that simple really. With how you killed that thing last night, I'm sure you could take more than one of them. Though... What's going to hunt you is not the same creatures, I am quite famous back in my era. And lots of those creatures despise me and wants to destroy me. So...expect more than just those thing. Deity warned Jirou, letting him know what's coming to him.
"More than just that thing? How could I possibly defeat all of them! And why the hell are they even that mad at you that even centuries later they still want to kill you!" Jirou yelled to Deity, not knowing what to do now that more than just that thing is now hunting him.
You can ease up, like I keep saying... You can take them on. Jirou then got a call from Soji which he picks up.
"Soji? Do you need something?" Jirou says as he waits for Soji's reply. "Nothing in particular, just wanna check up on ya. You feeling any better now?" Soji asked in the other end of the phone, Jirou smiled a little, touched that his friend checked up on him.
"Yeah, I'm doing ok." He said to Soji, not wanting him to worry any longer. "So...I was wondering if you're still ok going back to that abandoned parking space? I do still need a couple more clips." Soji asked to Jirou.
Jirou knowing what he left there shakes his head and replied. "Nah, I don't think it's a good idea to go back there. Maybe we can try another place?" Jirou told his friend, not really wanting Soji to see what mess he left back in the parking space.
Soji sighed "Yeah, I actually know a good place where we can continue getting clips for our channel. But I gotta go now, I'll call you again after a few, Cya." With that, Soji hanged up leaving Jirou holding his phone on his ear.
A friend of yours, human? Deity asked, curious about Soji. "Yeah, Soji...my friend since childhood. And I have a name, it's Jirou." Jirou told to Deity, not wanting to always be called "Human".
Jirou, now that you know what's coming for you. And now that I have you permission to use my abilities to survive. I need you to help me find something. Deity said to Jirou before explaining further.
I need you to find my remains, you see...back in my era. I scattered my 5 parts. My eyes, my heart, my jaw, and my claw. You currently have my left eye, giving you some of my abilities. But with all my parts, I can make sure you'll never die. Deity told Jirou what he wants him to do to survive.
"So you're telling me, you need me to find the rest of your remains so... I can get powerful and not die?" Jirou asked Deity with curiosity and a little hint of disbelief.
As I keep saying, yes. The first part I want you to find is the other eye, you'll feel it if you're close to it so be aware. Deity then transforms Jirou's hands into sharp claws. This will be your weapon, kill what stops you from obtaining the right eye.
Later that day, Jirou went out to get some air, also to process and accept everything that happened to him. During his walk, Jirou passed by a person. He has blonde, short hair with long bangs covering just above his eyebrows. Jirou looked back and saw the guy just walking to his own direction. But Jirou felt something from the guy, something uneasy which left him a little uncomfortable.
He went back to his place a little bit later, he flop on the bed and lets out a sigh. "Today has been crazy... A little bit crazy that it should be... left eye, creatures... and Deity..." You called? Deity asked.
"W-what?! Deity! Don't go speaking out of nowhere like that jeez!" Jirou said, startled by Deity speaking out of nowhere.
My apologies, but I can't really tell you without me... you know..speaking. Deity says sarcastically. Anyways, do you recall crossing paths with a shaman earlier. Deity asked.
"A shaman? I don't think I did, Why?" Jirou asked, not really recalling crossing paths with a shaman earlier.
I felt one's presence earlier when you were walking out. It seems like the shaman haven't felt my presence aswell. Deity then sighed before continuing. Maybe it was just my imagination... Forget about it.
Then suddenly a huge slash of wind broke into the room destroying the wall and whatever was on it's path.
"What the fuck was that!?" Jirou yelled before looking outside and saw the same a man standing at the rooftop of another building holding a katana. Be careful, Jirou... That's a Shaman. Deity warned, not wanting Jirou to fight knowing nothing about the enemy.
Jirou, angry at the man for destroying his place jumped out the window and lunges at the man, transforming his hand into claws and giving the man a slash.
The man blocked the slash with his katana and countered with a hook. Hitting Jirou on the chest, Jirou got hit and jumped back to recover. "What the hell..." Jirou looked at the man's face more closely and realized, it's the same guy he saw earlier. The guy he felt uneasy with.
"Who are you... What do you want?" Jirou asked, the man shrugged and spoke in a cold tone. "My name's Shinji Irose, I'm a Shaman... and I'm here to take you, A Jinn down!
