KHR! GODS & GODDESSES AU
It’s been a while since I posted something... soooooo, have another KHR AU (I regret nothing).
The Flame.
At the very beginning, before Time and Space were, there was The Flame. It is believed that even at The End of all The Flame will prevail. We all are part of The Flame and The Flame it is part of all of us. One day The Flame crackled and two sparks arose from it. That is how The Twins were born.
Primordial Gods.
Sister and brother they are, their powers equal in might but different in purpose.
Sepira. – Mother Creator, Goddess of Space and Life. Empress of the Gods. Goddess of women, men, childbirth and family.
Kawahira. – The Masked One, God of Time and Death.
The prophecy states that one day Sepira will vanish, uniting herself once more with The Flame. This will bring great catastrophes to the world, which Kawahira and Sepira's children will try to stop in vain. All the chaos will stop until The True Child of the Flame arises.  
First Generation.
The children of Sepira. The ones that gave form to the world.
Luce. – Born from Sepira’s heart.
Aria. – Luce’s twin sister, born from Sepira’s mind.
These two were born due to Sepira’s strong desire to have children of her own. Her heart and mind in tune with her desires. They are the goddesses of harvest, fertility, agriculture, nature and the seasons. Protectors of the pregnant women, midwives, mothers and babies.
Bermuda. – Born from Sepira’s left eye, God of the Night and the Moon, judge and punisher of the sinners. Kawahira gives to Bermuda all the souls that when in life committed crimes, from stealing a candy to rape, Bermuda judges them and punishes them accordingly in Vindice, the deepest and darkest part of Kawahira’s realm of Death.
Reborn. – Born from Sepira’s right eye, God of the Day and Sun, of medicine and healing, also of teaching. Despite his post a benevolent deity, Reborn – much like his twin – has a twisted personality and will punish the mortals if he sees it right to teach them moral and life lessons.
These two were born almost immediately after their older sisters. Sepira was so happy to have her twin girls that she started crying out on joy. Bermuda was surged from Sepira’s left eye tears while Reborn surged from the tears of the right eye.
Skull. – Born from Sepira’s laughter when she saw more children appearing in front of her. God of the dead and – strangely enough – protector of the children. He is the one that takes and guides the souls of the freshly deceased to his uncle. Despite his post as a gloomy and dark God, Skull likes children and protects them from the nightmares his sibling Mammon gives to misbehaving kids, he also takes the punishments that Bermuda and/or Reborn give to either both death or living young mortals.
Mammon/Viper. – Born from Sepira’s dreams. During daytime they are called Viper, Goddess of Wealth, Prophecy and Dreams. During nighttime they are Mammon, God of Fear, Witchcraft and Nightmares. In both names they are greedy and like most of their siblings they have a wicked personality. If they feel disrespected by the mortals, they punish them with nightmares and bankrupt. No matter the moment or name, they are always greedy.
Fon. – Born from Sepira’s passion. God of War and Martial Arts. Like his brother Skull, Fon favors the youngsters and when in a war there are young soldiers he protects them. He, like Reborn, also likes to teach and when he sees orphan children he takes them under his wing and teaches them how to defend themselves.
Lal Mirch. – Born from Sepira’s blood on a rose. Goddess of Victory, protector of female warriors and matron of the Amazons. A warrior goddess that inspires strength and discipline.
Colonello. – Born from Sepira’s blood that fell on the sea. God of the Sea, protector of seafarers. His sister, Lal Mirch, taught him how to hunt and how to be a warrior.
Verde. – Born from Sepira’s head (Like Athena from Zeus’s). God of Wisdom, Sciences, Philosophy and Craftsmanship. He favors blacksmiths and academics, granting wisdom to those he finds interesting enough, but do not trust his goodwill so easily, for he is known or also committing unthinkable experiments to the poor souls that Bermuda gives him to torture with his unthinkable experiments. He can usually be found arguing with Reborn over medicine and math.
Second Generation.
After Sepira’s return to The Flame – as the prophecy warned –, Kawahira together with his nephews and nieces tried to keep the world from falling into destruction. For a very long time they struggled, sometimes even fought between each other, until their wills became tired. Reborn and Bermuda then came up with an idea…
‘If we all combine our power, maybe we will be able to pull mother’s essence back from The Flame’.  
They all exposed their idea to Kawahira who immediately shot it down…
‘The Will of The Flame its absolute. It stated that my beloved sister returned to it and so she did. If we rebel against The Will of The Flame not even I will be able to save our essence.’
But the siblings ignored their uncle’s words and surrounding The Flame they used their power and essence to try to pull out the core of their beloved mother, what they got instead was an explosion of multicolored light that almost blinded them for good. When the bright and multicolored light died down the siblings discovered a bunch of naked youngsters… all new Gods and Goddesses that now they had to nurture and teach… with the passing time the first generation realized that these children were, for some reason, stronger than them in power and will.
Ryohei. – God of Summer and Health, also a Warrior God. Patron of the young warriors and those that study the healing arts.
Lambo. – God of Lightning and Thunder. The youngest of the new Gods also a bit of a crybaby.
Takeshi. – God of Water and Rain, a young warrior God. His swords cut open the clouds so water can pour down. Patron of swordsmen and when particularly bored he helps Skull on his ripper job.
Hayato. – God of the Wind and Storms. Protector of young academics and musicians. He is known for having an explosive personality – much like Lal Mirch –, he will usually be accompanied by both Takeshi and Lambo.
Kyoya. – God of the Clouds and Law, protector of the wildlife. Following the sadist streak of this heavenly family, Kyoya gladly helps Bermuda in judging and punishing the sinners. The birds inform him everything that happens in the mortal realm and sometimes he passes said information to Bermuda, most of the time he takes the matter into his hands and punishes the mortals himself.
Mukuro. – Alongside his twin sister he is the God of Mist and by himself he is the God of Winter and Mischief. He helps Bermuda at Vindice, punishing those that have abused children when alive.
Chrome. – Alongside her twin brother she is the Goddess of Mist and by herself she is the Goddess of Fall and Truth. She helps Bermuda during trial, forcing the souls to confess their sins and darkest secrets.
Bianchi. – Goddess of Love. Protector of matured couples and matrimonies, of siblinghood and first time lovers, also – for some reason – matron of cooks. She is in Love with Reborn but the Sun God only views her as a younger sister.
Kyoko and Haru. – Goddesses of Spring. When their season is over they like to help the other Gods and Goddesses, usually Bianchi, Ryohei, Reborn, Aria and Luce on their job.
And finally but not less importantly…
Tsuna. – For a very long time the children of Sepira did not know what to do with the ember eyed lad. He did not show any signs of being aligned to any element like his siblings and did not show any type of talent… until Kawahira did.
At first Kawahira just watches the boy struggle with the few errands Reborn gives him just to entertain himself for a bit, it is during this times that the primal God notices how the boy unconsciously attracts the other Flame Children and even The Children of Sepira, they flock around Tsuna like bees around their queen. Tsuna smiles at them and gives them an honest opinion if they asked for it. He is the one everyone goes when they feel agitated or tired, he is the one that gives simple answers to the hardest problems, the one that calls on their bullshit when necessary… and then it clicks.
Tsuna, God of the Sky and harmony, of sunrise and sunset, of the moon and the stars. The Favorite Child, The Flame’s Incarnate, Ruler of the Gods.

Melody of our Hearts (chapter 1)
Author’s notes: Hello everybody! It's been a loooong time since I've posted anything. Sorry about it! After a long break I hope I get to write a lot more again.
Now about this fic, I've been working on this since last May, very slowly at that. This is very near and dear to my heart. It's my very first AU, so be gentle. Also this fic is set in Korea, so the caharcters use Korean honorifics. I tried my best to learn to use the correct honorifics, but if anyone knows better than me, please let me know so I can fix my error. I don't want to offend anyone.
This is also a very slow burn, my first one finally. Now that I've triggered you with slow burn, I hope you'll look forward to my favourite story to unravel before your eyes <3
Summary: Gintama Characters in k-pop AU. Kagura is just about to debut as an idol, working under Gintoki's record label Yorozuya Entertainment. Her past isn't something she wants to think about, she just wants to move forward. Her dream is to be the biggest idol in the k-pop scene, even bigger than the ultra famous boy group Ωmega.
Pairings: Okikagu, Gintsu (minor), Takaban (minor)
Rating: M for mature content, bad language, fluff, light angst, enemies to friends to lovers
Disclaimer: I don't own Gintama or it's characters, Sorachi Hideaki does. I only own this story.
Chapter 1
<- More fics ~~  Next Chapter ->
Kagura felt her rapid heartbeat, she was nervous. Excited, but nervous. The room was dark and small, but she didn't let it bother her too much. Kagura swallowed and took a deep breath. Her voice needed to be as relaxed as possible for the moment.
She felt a thin strand of vermillion hair tickling her forehead. It felt sticky against her sweaty skin. As quickly as she could Kagura swiped the hair away from her face. She hoped no-one saw her ”struggle” and focused her eyes on the microphone in front of her.
This wasn't the first time she had big headphones on and a microphone in front of her. But this was her first time doing this - she was on her favourite radio show, being interviewed like some big name. She still had a really hard time believing it herself.
”And welcome back listeners. We've got a special treat for you today. The newest idol in the k-pop scene, Gura from Yorozuya Entertainment. Welcome to our show!” the host said.
”Thank you so much! I'm honored to be here,” Kagura said. The host motioned her to lean closer to the microphone. She awkwardly leaned over. ”I'm-” she said, but stopped immediately as she saw the host and the producer in the next room both shake their heads. Dammit, she cursed to herself.
Kagura grabbed a hold of the microphone and pulled it as close as possible. ”Thank you-,” she said. The host and the producer exchanged looks and she felt her confidence crumbling down bit by bit.
”Sorry folks, we are having some technical issues here, hold on for a second,” the host said and Kagura saw in his eyes the evident frustration. She tried to tell herself that this wasn't her fault, this was just bad luck.
It took only a few seconds for a technician to enter the room. Without saying a thing he went straight for her microphone.
”Try to say something,” the host mouthed to Kagura.
”He-hello,” she almost whispered. The host glanced at the technician who tried to work his magic on the mic as fast as possible. Kagura decided to try again. ”Hello,” she said louder, but still nothing seemed to work.
Kagura felt her cheeks burning red from embarrassment. She felt like getting up and abandoning the interview - the interview she had only ever dreamed about. The technician spotted a loose cord and with a firm click the cord was back in its place. The young man gave the host a thumbs up and took a step back away from Kagura.
”All right listeners, thank you for your patience. Everything should be fine on our end. Once again, welcome to our show Gura.”
Kagura tried to speak to the mic, but nothing came out. She choked up. The normally ever bubbly and confident Kagura didn't want to disappoint the host or the listeners again. She felt partly petrified.
”Gura? Can you hear me?” the host asked.
Kagura glanced at the host, tears nearly watering her eyes. Then, a person of great importance in her life popped up to the producer's room. The silver-haired man stood there and looked at Kagura through the window.
It was Sakata Gintoki, her manager and the CEO of Yorozuya Entertainment.  Now there was a man Kagura didn't want to let down, after all, he was the one who got her the interview. Also, he helped Kagura to launch her dream career in the music industry.
And most importantly, he gave her a place to call home.
The producer said something to Gintoki and he nodded at the man. Kagura watched as Gintoki took a pair of headphones and put them over his ears. He was listening to the live show. He and the rest of the people listening would be getting only dead air if Kagura couldn't pull herself together right that second.
That wasn't an option for her, no way in hell. ”H-hello,” Kagura pushed herself to say.
Kagura saw how the host's mood perked up with the sound of her voice. ”Yes, now that our listeners can finally hear you, we can start the interview,” the host chuckled.
Kagura let out a breathy chuckle for everyone to hear. She felt more at ease, maybe he never was angry at her. After all it was only a technical issue with her microphone, nothing about her. She really needed to get out of her head sometimes.
”So Gura, thank you for coming.”
”Thank you, it's an honor to be here.”
The host smiled at Kagura as he spoke to her, making the whole interview seem very casual and not at all like it was broadcasted all around South-Korea. ”You must be excited, your first single is finally out.”
”Yes it is, we worked really hard to make it just perfect.”
”I can't wait to hear it, but let me ask you a couple of questions first,” the host asked as he pulled out a piece of paper.
”When did you get your contract with YE?”
”I think it's been a year now. Sakata-nim* is my boss, manager and foster-father. He has always there to support me,” Kagura said with a wide smile and threw a quick look at Gintoki. ”So when he decided to start the company, he wanted me to be the first idol on his list.”
”A foster-father? I had no idea,” the host said.
”Yeah, I think it wouldn't do any good for me or the Yorozuya Entertainment if we'd kept it as a secret,” Kagura explained.
”I see,” the host concluded. ”Well, I think is very sweet of him to help you pursue your dreams, as a foster-father and your boss” the host said.
”Yes, it is.”
The host smiled and glanced at the paper in front of him. It seemed to be some kind of a cheat sheet. ”I have another question for you Gura; YE is rather new in the business. Does it scare you as an artist?”
”Of course not, we have other talented artists as well to put YE on the map, yes.”
Gintoki looked at Kagura with warmness filling his heart. He was proud of her. There she was, speaking so professionally and politely about her and the company. He had always known Kagura had what it took to become an idol.
From a young age, Kagura had liked to sing and to say the least, the girl got some pipes. She wasn't his daughter by blood, but that wasn't even a factor in the way Gintoki saw her.
She was like a real daughter to him.
Kagura had a rough childhood. Her mother had died when she was very young, leaving behind Kagura, her brother and her father. They had moved from China to South-Korea to start anew.
It didn't last long thou, the death of Kagura's beloved mother scarred everyone in the family. Kagura was the speaking image of her mother and it grew too excruciating for her father and brother. She didn't even remember when her brother left their home, but she sure did remember the day her father left.
Gintoki happened to be a next door neighbour of Kagura's family. The day was especially rainy. Kagura could remember how hard the rain drops poured against the ceiling. Like bullets. Kagura and her father walked hand in hand to Sakata's apartment door.
”Hello Sakata-shi*, sorry to bother you. Could you take care of Kagura for a couple of days?” He had asked from the half-stranger behind the door.
They had been neighbours for a couple of months, meeting few times in the hallway. Gintoki knew a bit of Chinese, so it was easy to do some polite small talk about the weather and such. Still, Gintoki was practically a stranger to them.
Still, somehow Kagura's father trusted him enough.
Gintoki scratched his fluffy hair and hesitated. He looked at the young girl with sparkling blue eyes, looking so harmless and kind. How could he say no. ”I guess I can.”
”Thank you,” he said and placed an envelope on Gintoki's hand. ”Here's my thanks.”
Kagura felt a peck on her forehead. ”Papi will be back soon enough,” he said and let go of her tiny hand. And with those words, he was gone.
Gintoki kneeled down on the little girl's level. She shyly looked at his gentle eyes. ”I guess we are going to be roommates for a couple of days,” he smiled. Kagura nodded at him and mirrored his smile.
”Do you like watching tv?” Gintoki asked.
”Uh-huh...” Kagura hummed.
”Let's go watch some tv then,” Gintoki said and stood back up.
After an hour Kagura seemed to be more relaxed, hogging the remote control from Gintoki, smiling at the commercials like the kid she was. Carefully, when she wasn't looking at him, Gintoki peeked inside the envelope. He swallowed at the sight.
There was a bit more money than he had expected. A bit more than to take care of a child for couple of days. More like for a couple of years. He wished for his sake, and mostly for Kagura's sake that her father just really bad at math.
Days went by. Kagura waited patiently for her father.
”Is papi coming today?” she asked every morning with a smile.
”I'm not sure, we have to wait and see,” he answered.
Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months. Slowly, Gintoki and Kagura both began to realize he wasn't coming back. Not in a few days, not ever.
Like any reasonable human would, Gintoki thought about taking Kagura to the child welfare center. She wasn't his daughter or even a distant relative. It was a strange situation for both of them.
But, he didn't. After a careful consideration Gintoki decided to take care of Kagura, he had grown fond of the young girl over time. And that was all that mattered to him. He was going to raise her with the best of his ability.
Kagura wasn't your every day girl, she had sass, she had a surprisingly foul mouth, uh...correction, she gained a foul mouth after just few weeks with Gintoki. Her first words in Korean were curse words, but it was a start. She was a very special young lady.
She liked to sing a lot and her voice wasn't ordinary, Gintoki was certain of that. Someone could say he was biased to like his ”own” daughters voice, but that wasn't the case. Kagura sang like a songbird and Gintoki wanted her to share her talent with the rest of the world.
When Kagura turned 14 Gintoki got the idea to start his own company, a brand new record label. He had always dreamed of the entrepreneur life. It took three whole years to safe up enough money, learn about the business and find the right people to work with.
And that was how the Yorozuya Entertainment came to be.
As Kagura kept answering the host's questions, Gintoki felt great relief. Kagura had went through a lot, but she still found a way to smile every single day. And Gintoki was ready to fight for that shining smile of a young heart.
”Yes Gura, that is true. You have the duo Eli and Zura, the girl group Sugar Addicts...and...,” the host said.
”Yup, and me.”
The host laughed a little. ”Yes, and you.”
”You know, at YE, we're like a real family and I love everyone to pieces.”
”I'm glad to hear that,” the host said. ”But Gura, I think it's finally time.”
Kagura smiled from ear to ear. ”Time to hear my single, yes?”
”Exactly right,” the host said and began to work on with his equipment. ”It's finally the time dear listeners, in a few seconds you're going to hear the very first song from Gura.”
Kagura wooed out of excitement and giggled right after.
”And don't forget, YE is having an outdoor concert at Syringa Park* next week, you can catch Gura and all the other idols from YE right there and for FREE! Can you imagine?”
”We're puting on a great show for you guys, so get ready to be amazed, yes,” Kagura said proudly.
”That's right guys, be there or you'll miss out,” the host said and turned to look at Kagura. "Thank you so much for being here and I wish you all the best. Now without further delays. Here's Gura's new song; Time is precious!”
The host smiled and clicked the song to play. Everyone took their headphones off their ears. Kagura and the host were all smiles afterwards. ”Thank you for the interview,” Kagura said and bowed deeply for the host.
”Ah, the pleasure was all ours,” he said.
Gintoki walked into the room with a goofy smile. Kagura hopped on her feet and ran to him. She hugged him tightly. Kagura didn't have enough words to describe her happiness, so she much rather showed to him. Gintoki patted the back of her head gently and rubbed her upper back. ”You did great kiddo.”
”Thanks A-Gin*!” Kagura said quietly.
Kagura was from China and Chinese was naturally her mother-tongue. She remembered how her mother used to call her A-Kagura. Because of that she thought that it was an endearment for important people.
Gintoki had studied a bit more Chinese to understand Kagura's heritage better. He explained to Kagura that ”A” wasn't the most appropriate way to call a man in his early thirties. It meant she called him ”sweet Gin” and some people could misunderstand it.
Still, she liked the way Gintoki smiled when ever she called him A-Gin, so she kept using it. Mostly privately.
”How about a lunch for our triumph?” Gintoki asked.
”Sounds good, I'm getting hungry already.”
”Let's go then.”
”Race you to the car,” Kagura announced and slipped past the silver haired man. The host looked at Gintoki with an amused look on his face.
”She's one of a kind idol, I'll tell you that,” Gintoki said and bowed at the host. Then he hurried after Kagura.
Author's notes:
*nim: a word for respect in the Korean language (like a teacher, boss...)
*shi: a word for respect in the Korean language (mr./mrs.)
*A-Gin: an equivalent for Gin-chan from the Chinese language,
Akelyokikagu from tumblr translated it for me from a Chinese doujinshi (my humble thanks : 3)
