Day Six - Stuck elevator

AU: Original

TW: Mentions of violence, death

-----

The situation would've been funny, if he wasn't the one stuck in it.

Two of the most feared gods of Athrea, both stuck in a human elevator. They can't even use magic to get the hell outta here. Gods aren't allowed to use magic on Earth, otherwise they'd probably be exiled from both their clans.

Miburui would've laughed at the absurdity of it all. He almost believed that some god, maybe the God of Mischief, set them up in this nightmare. It wasn't exactly a secret to the rest of the realm that the god of Battles and the Athrean Aspect of War hated each other from the first time they laid their eyes upon each other.

Miburui, the one with the more experience on Earth, had repeatedly smashed the "Door Open" button as hard as he could in his weak human body. Unfortunately, that did nothing. Moriko had even tried contacting the emergency people, but even that hadn't worked. Everything was blacked out.

"Are you kidding me." Moriko said flatly. It was more of a rhetorical question. 

Miburui groaned in response.

"Please don't tell me this is like one of those movies where the characters are stuck in the elevator for hours." Moriko prayed. "Shinjiro Fuku, if you're hearing me right now, give me a stroke of luck. Like, maybe have someone save us. I don't wanna spend hours with this asshole."

Miburui raised his eyebrows at her. "Do you really think the God of Luck will help us after we just got stuck with each other in an elevator?" He asked. "How stupid can you be?"

She shot him an irritated glare. "Do you ever shut up?"

"I will once you stop saying stupid shit everywhere you go," He responded, closing his eyes and leaning against the elevator railings. He could literally feel Moriko's burning gaze on him.

This was going to be absolute Hell.

"Why me," He muttered under his breath. 

"How the fuck did we even end up here?" Moriko asked loudly. He opened his eyes again and glared at her. 

"Why don't you shout a little louder? Maybe that'll move the elevator." He spat. She gave him another glare. 

Miburui wondered what will happen if the humans eventually find him stuck in the elevator with Moriko's dead body beside him.

"I hate Astro Chiyo and Kohaku Fuji so fucking much." Miburui spat venomously. "I will kill them both once I get the fuck out of here."

"if you kill Kohaku, Aka's gonna kill you." Moriko said, looking amused at the mere thought of it.

Miburui hates that she's probably right. Aka will flip and castrate him if he goes as far as to lay a single finger on his boyfriend's hair.

Astro and Kohaku were the ones who suggested Miburui and Moriko to come with them to a human mall for some reason. Astro invited Moriko, Kohaku invited Miburui. Neither was informed that they would be coming with the other, so it had been a shock when they saw each other. They did try to kill each other at first, but stopped after they got a few alarmed looks from passerby's.

While Moriko was at the bathroom and Miburui was getting some food, the two of them had ran off somewhere. When the two of them came back, Kohaku and Astro were gone. Just a minute later, both of them sent them a text saying they were getting drinks two floors below them (Miburui had yet to figure out how they got there so fast).

When the two of them stepped in the elevator together, halfway down, it had stopped. Now it all made sense. Astro was the God of Technology and Kohaku was the God of Time. Astro probably disabled the elevator and Kohaku probably slowed time down to make it seem longer for Miburui and Moriko. 

How they did it without getting immediately exiled from their clans was a complete mystery to Miburui.

It's only been fifteen minutes, and Miburui was already prepared to murder Moriko. He already has at least fifteen methods of killing her without her being able to move a finger to defend herself.

He doesn't doubt the fact that Moriko probably has methods of murdering him without him being able to defend himself as well.

Now, the only question was when they were gonna be let out of this hellhole.

"Hey, maybe we should kill ourselves in here," Moriko suggested. "We can come back as new humans afterwards."

Miburui looked at her, as if contemplating her idea. "That's not too bad of an idea." He said slowly. "Besides, it wouldn't hurt to mindfuck the humans a bit."

"Hey, maybe we'd end up on Buzzfeed Unsolved!"

He raised her eyebrows at him. "Buzzfeed Unsolved? What the fuck is that?"

Moriko stared at him incredulously. "You don't know what Buzzfeed Unsolved is?"

"No?" Miburui said slowly. "What is it?"

"It's basically two human guys talking about unsolved murder or disappearance cases." Moriko said, glaring at him.

"Interesting," He said. "Weird hearing you actually know about something for once."

"Well now that's just fucking rude," She said, rolling her eyes. "But we really should stab ourselves."

"Yeah." He agreed. "Lets do that."

When a god dies on Earth, their human body dies but their spirit goes back to their realm. So if Moriko and Miburui dies, their spirit would be back in Athrea, and there, they would be able to get new human bodies and go back to Earth completely unharmed.

Both of them pulled out a knife and looked at each other warily.

"Count of three?"

"Yeah." Moriko agreed.

"Three," Miburui counted. "Two."

"One." Moriko said.

They stared at each other. Neither of them moved or tried to stab themselves.

"Well now I'm just disappointed in both of us." Moriko said flatly, not looking surprised or even bothered.

Before Miburui could retort, the elevator started moving. Before either of them could hide their weapons, the door opened.

There stood three guards, Kohaku and Astro behind them. Both of them were grinning maniacally at Miburui and Moriko.

The guards looked back and forth at them, and then their weapons.

"Wait, we can explain-"
