Ichi was making his way to the entrance of Honnouji Academy. He was really excited, as today would be his first true day of high school. Ever since becoming a free man, free from Jii-san's control, he decided to live the highschool life he's always wanted, and while every other highschool in Japan turned him down, he was surprised to find that Honnouji Academy accepted his request. He didn't care why, he was just happy to start anew.
He finally reached the entrance and walked inside to the massive grounds. He looked up in awe at the gargantuan school. Watching the new guy arrive was a group of four bullies who liked to pick on the newbies.
"Hey look! It's the new kid!" One of them said as they walked up to Ichi. He was nervous.
"Uhh...uh...hi. I'm Ichi." he said forcing a smile.
"Hey Ichi. Let me show you how things work around here."
He gave Ichi a hard shove, making him stumble back a bit. Meanwhile, a certain scissor wielding girl and her friend were watching the events unfold.
"Now ya hate to see that..." Ryuko said.
"Poor guy...why do they always do that?" asked Mako. Ryuko sighed and stood up.
"Well, I think I could let out a little steam..."
She then walked towards them. Ichi was about to be shoved again but as if reflex, Ichi gave him a hard kick to the stomach. He kneeled down in pain and coughed up blood.
"Kill that son of a bitch!"
Ichi cringed at the word "kill" as the rest of the boys surrounded him. Ichi was terrified, so much so that he was about to cry. Ryuko stopped in her tracks, confused.
"What's with that guy?"
"What's wrong crybaby? Scared of a little fight?" one of the boys asked. Tears ran down Ichi's face.
"P-Please..." said Ichi. One of the boys suddenly lunged at him and Ichi gave him a spinning hook kick to the face, knocking him out instantly. Ichi continued to cry and wail as he delivered a straight kick to the next boy's face, knocking him out as well. Ichi then let out another cry as he chased the last boy, who tried to run away.
"Get away from me you psycho!" the boy yelled. Ichi gave him a hard drop kick to the back, knocking him down. Ichi then screamed as he kicked the boy's head, knocking him out. Ichi then turned his attention to the boy who was still conscious.
"You...you freak!"
He stood up and took out a switchblade knife. He then lunged at Ichi in an attempt to stab him. Ichi kicked the knife out of his hand then with his other leg spin kicked him in the head, knocking out. All the other students watched in awe. Ichi then fell to his knees and cried. He thought he would never have to hurt anyone again, but his instincts were to strong to handle.
Ryuko walked up to him, still confused over the situation.
"Uhh...you okay there, dude?"
Ichi gave little response. He continued to cry and wipe his tears.
"Aww...don't feel bad."
Mako appeared behind him and gave him a hug.
"Those ruffians deserved every beating you gave to them for bullying you. It's okay."
The longer Mako hugged, the more he began to calm down, and soon turned around and hugged Mako back.
"There you go...all better."
Ichi rubbed his hand down and lightly groped Mako's breast. Mako yelped and blushed. Ichi realized what he did and immediately let go of Mako.
"Oh! Oh my god! Please forgive me!" Ichi said kneeling on the ground.
"Uh...no harm done. What's your name?"
"I-Ichi." he said standing up.
"Nice to meet you, Ichi!" Mako said with a smile. "You can call me Mako! And this here is my best pal, Ryuko!" she said putting her arm around her.
Ichi stared at Ryuko and noticed that her midriff was exposed. This was enough to get him aroused. He started to gain an erection.
"Uh...hi Ichi." Ryuko said awkwardly. Ichi looked up at her.
"Uh...hi." he said forcing a smile while slowly covering his groin.
"Uhhh do you have to use the bathroom?" asked Ryuko. Just then stomping towards them came Gamagoori.
"And just what is the meaning of this!?" he roared.
"Easy there, Jumbo. Ichi here was being bullied by some thugs but he beat them all up by himself." explained Ryuko.
"Is that right? Mindless fighting on school grounds results in serious consequences!"
"It wasn't mindless fighting!"
Mako stood up and raised her hands in the air.
"Ichi here was just defending himself! Defending himself against those four bullies! Boy he sure beat them good, just like Sonny Chiba! Hiya!" she said doing a bunch of weird poses, confusing Gamagoori.
"B-bullies?" Ichi quietly asked.
"You see Ichi knows kung fu! He really didn't want to beat those boys up! He was so sorry you should have seen it! Please don't report this to Lady Satsuki!" asked Mako cutely.
Gamagoori sighed.
"I'm afraid I must, but...I suppose I can refer to it as an very unimportant incident..."
"Thank you so much!"
"Whatever...just try to keep it under control, alright? This is your first day, Ichi. Try to make a good impression. And get changed into some kind of uniform."
"Y-Yes sir."
Gamagoori nodded and walked away.
"Who was that?" asked Ichi.
"That was Gamagoori, one of the Elite Four, who run the school. He's in charge of disipline." explained Mako.
"I see..."
"So...Ichi. Where are you from?" asked Ryuko.
"Uh...not from around here...heh heh."
"I see. That kinda makes two of us."
"Ryuko..." said Senketsu. "I get a very, very bad feeling about this young man..."
"What makes you say that, Senketsu?" asked Ryuko, confusing Ichi.
"Uh..."
"Oh, Ryuko likes to talk to her uniform!"
"Uh...heh heh."
"Okay..."
"Yeah. Say, you should probably get dressed into your uniform as well."
"Oh, you're right!"
5 minutes later...
Ichi stepped out of the mens room and up to Ryuko and Mako, wearing his dark black leather football looking uniform, with a large yellow "1" painted on the back. He actually hated wearing it, because it reminded him of the past, but rules were rules.
"Whoa..." said Ryuko. "That's actually kind of rad."
"Uh...thank you." said Ichi with a smile.
"Yeah...what kind of uniform is that?" asked Mako.
"It's...something I've always worn..."
"Interesting..."
Just then the bell rang.
"Oh my gosh! We better get to class!" exclaimed Mako.
"Right!" said Ichi. They all hurried to the classroom.
Meanwhile...
Gamagoori stepped up to Lady Satsuki in her Chamber.
"Lady Satsuki..."
He kneeled down to her.
"Ichi...the new student. He got into a fight with four students. They all took him on but he beat them up. I'm sure nothing will come of this."
"You really think so?"
"Hm?"
"Ichi is no ordinary student. He is extremely dangerous."
"What do you mean?"
"He not even of high school age. He is the very same Ichi who is responsible for the deaths of hundreds...maybe even thousands in the inner city regions all over the country. The notorious murderer, Ichi the killer!"
"W-What?"
"He sent a request to enroll in the academy. He told me his whole story, of course it's hard to believe."
"Th-The same Ichi...who tears people to shreds?"
"Yes...he fights with a blade so sharp, so powerful, there's no telling what material it can cut through."
"Why...allow him to enroll?"
"Because. He may prove to be a valuable asset."
"I see...you have a plan for him."
"Indeed I do. Is that understood?"
"Yes, Lady Satsuki. It is."
"Good. Report this to the rest of the Elite four."
"Right away."
Gamagoori left as Satsuki took another sip of her tea.
