Chapter 1: The Beginning

It was a beautiful day in Tokyo. People are walking through the busy streets, either enjoying their day or going to work. A woman was at the cafe, enjoying her coffee and reading her book peacefully. Her name is Leona. She's a beautiful young woman with long red hair in a braid and brown eyes, wearing a ripped black shirt with a black bandeau, a silver heart locket, a snake armband, a silver ring, black bracelets, blue slightly ripped pants with a black belt, and converse. Every man in Tokyo wants to date her, but she refuses because she wants to be with someone for who she is, not for her looks, or her unusual hair.

Leona is reading her book, minding her own business, soon enough, Leona smiled a put a bookmark in the page she was reading, throwing her empty coffee cup in the trash, Leona made her way through the streets and as the sun began to set, she made it to an rundown old mansion. Leona knocks on the door, a few seconds later, the door opened and reveal two young children, a boy and girl both are wearing clothes that looks like they're from a fairytale. Their names are Vega and Altair.

"Hello princess. How was your day?" Vega said as Leona walked inside, Altair closed behind her. "It's fine as usual, and Vega, you and Altair don't need to be so formal to me, you two can just call me by my name." Leona said with a warm smile, "Sorry prin-Leona." Vega said with a smile, "Force of habit, we can't help it."

"I understand." Leona said, "Are my parents here?" "Your mother is in the living room and your father is still in the heavens, working." Altair said as the three made their way to the living room. "My dad's still working?" Leona said in surprised, "He usually doesn't like working, he would hang around in the living room to spend time with mom." "Well he is the king." Vega said, "And you and your mother are the queen and princess, so he has responsibilities as king."

Leona isn't a normal person, she's actually a demigoddess since her mother is a human and her father is a god, and she's a princess in the heavens. Like on earth, the male gods wants to be with her, but only for her unusual hair and eyes, or as her status as the princess and heir to the throne, not as herself. They entered the living room, saw a woman and three men. The woman is wearing a blue dress with a bow on her left side of her waist, her name is Kyoko. 

The man next to her has neck-length golden blond hair and golden eyes, he wears a white uniform with gold outline, a white shirt shirt and white cravat and a band on his right upper arm. His name is Teorus, he is a member of the Department of Wishes, where the gods grant human wishes. The second man has slightly messy brown hair and brown eyes, he wears black and white uniform with gold outline, white gloves and a black with gold outline band on his upper left arm. 

His name is Dui, he is a member of the Department of Punishments, where the gods punished the humans for their sins. And the last man has neck-length brown hair tied in a half-up and gray eyes, he wears black and white uniform with gold outline with the sleeves pushed up, bracelets on his right wrist, his white shirt with the collar opened, and a simple leather necklace with a blue jewel, and a black with gold outline band on his upper left arm. His name is Ichthys, he is also in the Department of Punishments.

"Ikky, will you stop that?!" Teorus said in annoyance, Ichthys turned his glass of milk into orange juice and turns Dui's cherry pie into blueberry pie. "Ichthys, please stop it." Kyoko, Leona's mother said worryingly. "Is Ikky pulling pranks again?" Leona asked, knowing what the answer is. Leona knew Ichthys loves to pull pranks ever since she was born, she loves his pranks but only when they're actually funny, not when it's over the line or annoys people. 

"Leona! Welcome home!" Dui said happily, "Leona, a little help!" Teorus begs, hoping she can stop Ichthys. "What? Leona loves my pranks." Ichthys said, pretending to be innocent, "I do, but only when they're actually funny, not when they're annoying." Leona said, rolling her eyes. She snaps her fingers, and instantly turn Teorus's milk glass and Dui's cherry pie back to normal, much to their delight. "I see you handle this on your own well, Leona." a male voice called from the door, Leona turned and saw two more men.

One of them has layered brown hair with very long bangs and brown eyes, he wears a white uniform with gold outline, with a white shirt and crimson necktie and a band on his right upper arm. His name is Karno, he is the Vice-Minister of the Department of Wishes. The other man has neck-length dark hair with long bangs and dark blue eyes, he wears a white uniform with gold outline, a white shirt and bolo tie with a gold clasp and a band on his right upper arm. His name is Huedhaut, he is also a member of the Department of Wishes.

"You honestly think I would use my powers to create a bigger mess like my dad does?" Leona said with a raised eyebrow. "No, though I'll admit, you handle it very calmly." Karno said. Leona knew Karno is her father's right hand man and is very trusting, which is why he wants him to watch over her if her parents are too busy. Her father also has Huedhaut to watch her as well. Though Karno and Huedhaut both knew Leona is not a child anymore, they let her to have her freedom on earth, but they have to watch her from the heavens, just in case something happens.

"Anyway, Ikky you seriously need to lay off with the pranks." Leona said sternly to her friend. "Since when did you become my babysitter?" "Better than Zyglavis, right?" Leona said with a smirk. Ichthys pouts, but he knew she was right, Zyglavis always has to keep an eye on him so he never feels relaxed around him. So he prefers Leona watching him than Zyglavis.

"Leona, you need to come with us, your father wants to see you." Karno said, "ok" Leona said, They walked out of the living room, and towards a door. Karno opens the door as the inside gave a heavenly glow as Leona went inside with Huedhaut and Karno follows behind her. On the other side show a beautiful blue hallway with candles hanging from the walls next to the windows and chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.

As they walked through the hallways, Leona's clothes changed into a beautiful white dress with gold trims and a bracelet, a beautiful silver crown appeared on her head with her hair down. They walked through the hallways, some gods who are working in the palace, saw them and bowed before them, letting them pass, Leona gave them a warm smile with a small nod as she, Karno and Huedhaut walked past them.

"So, what does my dad want?" Leona asked her "bodyguards", "Not sure. Probably just want to avoid work." Karno answered, "As the king or as minister?" "Both." Before Leon, her father, became king, he was the Minister of the Department of Wishes when he met her mother. After the former King failed to separate them, he finally allows them to be together and get married before passing away, now Leon is still minister and now King of the gods, making Kyoko Queen and after Leona was born, she was addressed as Princess and Heir to the throne.

"Well, that's dad for ya." Leona said as they reached to the double doors. Karno and Huedhaut opened the doors for her, revealing a beautiful throne room: it literally has a blue starry night sky and has twelve pillars with 12 zodiac constellations statues on top.

Sitting on the throne is a handsome man with messy neck-length auburn hair. The lock of his hair on his left side of his face is longer than the lock on the right, and golden-brown eyes, he wears a black and white suit with white cape with gold trims, and a gold crown with a red gem in the center. His name is Leon, he is the Minister of the Department of Wishes and the King of the Gods, and Leona's father and Kyoko's husband.

"Hi dad!" Leona said happily as she walks up as Leon stood up from his throne and they hugged. They pulled away and Leon let Karno and Huedhaut out as they bowed and leave the throne room. "So, dad, why do you want to see me? Is it because you want to skip out of work again?" Leona teased her father as they walked out of the throne room to the balcony. Leon chuckles as they watched the beautiful star filled sky. "Not exactly. But I want to see you because it's something important I have to tell you about." "Important?" Leona questions, "Yes. Your aware about Partheno's history, right?" "Yeah. He told me about that once." Leona answered sadly.

Leona knew that Partheno was once a demon and son of the Dark King of the Underworld. His family was massacred during the war between Heaven and Hell over her mother's power when she was Clotho, the Goddess of Fate before she was reborn as a human when he was young. For some unknown reason, he was brought to the heavens but was treated coldly by the other children because he was from hell. He was lonely and yearned for a place he belonged. Sometime later he encountered a survivor from the underworld and learned that he was the son and heir of the King of the Hell. The survivor killed a family and replaced him as the boy "Partheno" who survived the massacre. The survivor was arrested by the gods, and he assumed the boy's identity and essentially forgot who he was.

As he got older, his demonic powers grew but always ill because of the happiness he felt since demons thrive on negative emotions and happiness weakens it. He remembered who he really was, researched his family's roots, and learned that demons have the power to attract people. So when he realized that the other gods really like him due to his power instead of himself, caused him to feel more lonely. He decided that since he had no place in the heaven, so he wants to restore his father's power and revive the underworld.

He joined the Department of Punishments and meets Kyoko after she dates Leon, she and the other gods soon later discovered that Partheno is a demon after he kidnaps Kyoko, revives his father and ambush the gods in the heavens. Kyoko was able to stop Partheno and offers him her friendship, telling him that she likes him as himself, not because of his demon power, willing to teach him what love is. So the former King turns Partheno into a god and ruler of the constellation, Virgo. It took sometime for all the other gods to forgive him, but it was worth it.

"As you don't know, the demons have appeared both in the heavens and on earth." "What?!" Leona exclaimed, she heard about the demons when she was small, not just hearing Partheno's story. Huedhaut, along with Karno and Zyglavis, taught her about the heavens and it's history before going to school on earth, thanks to her mother.

"But I thought Partheno destroyed them!" Leona also knew Partheno destroyed his father and his comrades before he was reformed. "That's what I thought too since Partheno destroyed them right before me and your mother, but due to what's been going on earth and some of the gods here in heaven, some demons have been spotted." "Are they going after mom again?" Leona asked fearfully, "I'm afraid so." Leon said worryingly, not wanting his wife in danger. They both know the demons are going after Kyoko, because only the powers of the reincarnated goddess of fate can resurrect the dark king.

"Shouldn't we tell mom and everyone else about this, dad?" Leona asked, "They have the right to know." "Of course we're telling them, I don't want any harm come to you, or your mother." Leon said, wanting to keep his family safe, "I'm just waiting for the right time to tell them." "I hope so before it's too late." Leona said. They hear footsteps echoing from the throne room, they turn to find Kyoko approaching them with a lunch box in her hand.

"I see you two are having your usual father-daughter moment, I'll give you your meatballs and I'll see you back at the mansion." Kyoko said with a smile as she handed Leon the lunch box. "Thanks mom." Leona said as Kyoko smiles before walking away. "Still wanna tell her?" Leona asked as she turns to Leon, "Not yet. For now, let's eat these meatballs your mother gave us." Leon said, making Leona smile a little. But she couldn't shake the feeling something bad's going to happen.
