Millions of years ago, a great war broke in the heavens. Realms rose against realms, principalities against principalities. Great celestial beings rose against gods of the heavens, there was no peace for aeon. What was the reason for the unending war?.. Dominance.
Millions of miles away the zodiac gods watched the foolishness of the great cosmic beings, at first they did not want to interfere in any way because the war did not get to them. They were not bothered by the gods or any cosmic beings, because the zodiac gods rules over all the spheres , realms and stars of the cosmos but not the divine realms, therefore, any interference with them would bring the cosmos to it end. Even though the Zodiac gods ruled above millions of stars and realms, still, they are not the greatest in the hierarchy of cosmic beings, there are still the great Archangels, above them also the great Seraphs and Cherubs, above these also are the great Divine beings of the divine realms.
When the Zodiac gods saw how terrible some of the cosmic beings had become, annihilating millions of gods and principalities across the heavens only so that they could dominate, they decided to intervene in the war for it to end. They turned to the Archangels for help and the Archangels gave them a great Idea. Together, all twelve zodiac gods of the twelve zodiac realms joined forces to create an ultimate weapon, the kind capable of bringing down the must powerful forces of darkness and evil. They successfully created the weapon they needed but there was no god or goddess in the Zodiac realms capable of wielding it. For the powers surging through the weapon was too powerful for all the gods except for the archangels, but even they couldn't wield the weapon because it was made from a nature not similar to that of the Archangels. The gods sat in a counsel to deliberate on the matter, they pointed out the dangers and downsides of wielding the weapon but at the end the god of the Leo Zodiac realm decided to wield the weapon. A decision that made all the other gods to revere him, to respect him, to honor him and also to fear for him, for they could never guess what would happen to the Leo god. Alas, to wield the weapon, one has to become one with it and to do so, one has to bond with it.

In the present time, Kiya abruptly woke up from sleep. She held her chest trying to stop her self from panting heavily. "That was a dream?" she asked herself; "I could swear I was there" she added.
Three hours later, Kiya, Alisha and Arkhaviya were in Alisha's house in Lagos, her main home and not her lodge in the school in jos. The availability of Arkhaviya now makes it very easier for them to travel through space. In the compound, Arkhaviya stood near a grave, staring at it without flicking her eyes. That is suppose to be her own grave, had she not tricked fate by jumping through time and back. "Haaaa" she sighed, "I will not let you down."
Inside the house, Kiya and Alisha sat across each other while Kiya explains her dream to Alisha. "Just when the Great Lion god was going to bond with the scary weapon, I felt hazy and Boom! I woke up from the dream." she concluded.
"Damn it" Alisha coursed, "I wish you saw it to the end."
"Do not worry Babe, I believe we will figure it out." Kiya said.
Swoooooosh... A portal opens in the room, "We have already figured it out" Arkhaviya interrupted the two ladies.
"What?.. How" Alisha asked.
"We don't need to do anything, we only need to wait for the full moon and everything will play right by itself." Arkhaviya replied.
[Kiya sighs] "It will soon be full moon" she said.
"Not soon but tonight.. full moon is tonight" Arkhaviya affirmed.
"Well then, we just wait for full moon to do it job" Alisha said rather too casually.
Arkhaviya looks at Alisha in disgust, "You don't believe it do you?" she asked.
"No I do really" Alisha answered.
"Your playful tone says otherwise" Arkhaviya said.
[Alisha laughs] "Don't mind me Mam.. That how I am." she argued.
"Then you better be serious else your nonchalant attitude may ruin us." Arkhaviya warned.
"But I didn't say or do anything bad now" Alisha blurted.
[Kiya shouts] "Hey, you two should stop this. What is the argument all about?"
Alisha...
Arkhaviya...
[Kiya sighs] "Good.. Now that both of you are quiet, let us please decide on one thing."
"What should we decide on?" Alisha quickly asked.
[Kiya smiles] "Well the decision remain what it was. I will just go home, lie on my bed and wait for the full moon and let see if the bonding will happen or not."
Both Arkhaviya and Alisha locked their eyes on Kiya without saying a word. Kiya left the room, mount her scooter which was given to her as a birthday gift by her Uncle from her Mother's side and off she went.
Ten minutes after she hit the road on her scooter, Kiya encounter something strange. While she drive, a young man entered the road abruptly, Kiya didn't see him coming, her heart sank, her blood pressure rises and even time seem to slow down. What people standing by the road saw was a reckless young man who decided to cross the road carelessly and now a scooter is about to run him over but what Kiya is seeing in a slow motion is an angel standing in front of her, smiling bright and waving a hello wave. Kiya was snapped out of her fantasy when the sound of the screams of the bystanders streamed into her ears. "Oh my god" she shouted, she tried all she could to dodge the young man but without success, and before she knew it, she brushed the man with her scooter. She hit her breaks for the scooter to stop, after which she ran back to check on the unfortunate person she brushed.
[Kiya breath heavily] "Are you Ok" she shouted.
"Ahhh" Young man groans, "I think I am ok" he replied.
"I am so sorry I wasn't looking" she said.
"No it ok.. I was careless, I should have seen you coming." he replied.
All the while, the young man had his face down, looking at the bruises on his right foot, where the impact of the scooter brush was intense. When he perceived the presence of Kiya around him, he knew she came closer, he raised his face to look at her, and that was the moment that both he and Kiya travelled into a fantasy space of love at first sight. Lost in her thought, Kiya drooled over the must handsome man she had ever seen, "He must be from the heavens" she thought, "How else could he be so charming?"
His heart stopped beating, Time itself froze, the only thing that made sense at that time was Kiya's beautiful face; "She must be the must beautiful girl on the planet." he thought.
