I was Betrayed then Reincarnated as a Kitsune

Chapter 27: Meeting with Fate

[Luna POV]

When I made it back to my room in the inn, I jumped onto the bed and buried my face in the pillow.

Ugh, I messed up big today. I complained to myself.  While the thing at the guild was one thing, I almost snapped at Velvet too.

While I was looking back on my actions during the day, a wave of drowsiness hit me.

Whats going on here? I started to say as I lost consciousness.

When I woke up, I was in Tamamos home.

Whats going on?  Its not even the full moon tonight. I said confused.

That would be my doing, I really wanted to meet you in person. Said a voice from behind me.  I turned to look at who spoke to see a slender woman with heterochromatic eyes of amethyst and emerald.  She had long hair that reached past her knees and was a deep blue bordering on purple.

Its nice to meet you Luna, I am the Goddess of Fate, Atmos.

It is good to meet you as well. I replied stiffly.

{Atmos, can you stop releasing your aura, youre putting Luna in a tough spot.} Tamamo said, scolding the Goddess of Fate.

Fine, fine, I get it, dont look at me like that. She said rolling her eyes before turning back to look at me.  Again, its good to finally meet you in person, future sister-in-law.  I know you must be confused about why I called you here, but I just really wanted to meet you in person.  Every time I try to, Tamamo stops me, but this time I managed to distract her long enough.

I looked over to Tamamo to see if what she said was true, but she refused to meet my gaze.  I turned back to face her and said;

Please take care of me in the future, then.

She smiled brightly when I said this.  Before we continued talking, we went over to some seats that werent there before and sat down.

I have been watching you for a while, Luna, and I must say, you are quite entertaining.  Especially the times you hug your tail and talk to it like you are talking to Tamamo. She said. I covered my face with my hands to try and hide my embarrassment.

{When do you do that?} Tamamo asked, surprised.

Oh please, dont act so surprised, Tamamo, you do the same thing.  Not to mention that every full moon after she leaves you complain to yourself that your tails dont compare to the fluffiness of hers. She said, her teasing smile growing wider while Tamamo blushed a bright red as well.

{This is why I always try to stop you from meeting Luna, all you ever do is tease and embarrass me.} Tamamo complained with a pout, her face still read.

I couldnt get a word in through my embarrassment as well as the revelation Atmos gave me.  I started to peek at Tamamo through my fingers, which Atmos caught on to.

Oh, what is this?  Did you not know about that, Luna?

I didnt. I answered.

I took my face out of my hands and looked directly at Tamamo this time.  This caused her blush to deepen and made me smile.

I guess that means I have to start brushing and tending to Tamamos tails more so that she can at least endure me not being here longer. I said, a teasing smile spreading across my face to match my future sister-in-laws.  Dont worry, I have a brushing skill thats almost at max level.  I dont know what will happen when it maxes out, but I guarantee that you will get the brushing of your life.

I like the way you think, Luna.  I give you permission to trap Tamamo in the abyss of fluff with the only way out being her gaining a similar level of fluff. Atmos said, giving me a thumbs up.

{Will the both of you stop!} Tamamo shouted.

But its so much fun teasing you, Tamamo. Atmos said.

Shes right, plus its nice to be on the teasing side of things for once. I said, agreeing.

{The both of you better be prepared for the consequences of this.  Especially you, Atmos.} Tamamo said, glaring at the both of us.

What are you gonna do, Tamamo? Atmos asked.

{Ill stop giving you my practice cooking.}

Atmos froze upon hearing Tamamos words.

Please reconsider!  Ever since I tried your cooking, I cant stop eating it.  Youre on par with the God of Culinary Arts, and you know she hasnt talked to me since I pulled that prank on her.  If you stop giving me food, I dont know whatll happen. The panic in Atmoss voice increasing after every word.

{As for you, Luna.  I might not call you here on the next full moon.} Tamamo said, ignoring Atmoss pleading.

I was shocked upon hearing her words.  There wasnt a single full moon that I didnt spend time with Tamamo since I was five.  I started to tear up.

Thats not cool, Tamamo.  It may have calmed down for the most part, but her emotions are still a bit unstable.  Just look at her. Atmos said, turning serious.

Tamamo look over at me and saw the tears falling from my eyes.  She got up and came over and hugged me.

{Sorry, Luna. I didnt mean it.  Please calm down.} Tamamo said in a gentle voice.

Are you still mad?  Im sorry. Was all I could say.

{Im not mad anymore, so please stop crying.}

Ill leave the two of you alone for now.  It was good to meet you Luna, please be careful in the next few months. Atmos said before covering herself in a shining light and disappearing.

Im sorry for being such a mess today, Tamamo.  First it was that thing with Velvet this afternoon, then that thing at the guild, and now this.

{Its fine, while I cant do anything about the first two things, I can at least apologize for going too far this time.  Im sorry.} She hugged me tighter while saying this.

I think I feel better now, thank you I said as I hugged Tamamo back.

Author's Note:

I really hate April Fools day, so here, a normal chapter for anyone like minded.  Beware the next chapter might give an overdose of fluff.  Thanks for reading.
