The teen gazed silently outside the plane.

The view reminded him of the war that lasted for five whole years. The current Japan has almost rebuilt all of its cities, although that doesn't include the historical sites that were destroyed during the war that almost purged all of the males in the world.

He grit his teeth as he pushed away the memories that resurfaced on his mind.

Despite being on his mid-teens, he carried burdens greater than others, although that story is for another time.

Five years ago, his life ended and started at the same time.

The 'Lost War' as it name implies, was a war that brought a downside on mankind. Because of this war, the population of men was nearly spent. Because of a mysterious disease that happen to spread. Because of the baseless rumor that males were the source of the so called virus. Because of that simple reason, the male gender was almost erased in the face of the planet.

For five years, his gender was hunted because of false information. His friends and comrades were mercilessly killed by women and their cursed weapons called Infinite Stratos: An Exoskeleton suit that was originally designed for space explorations. It was modified by Professor Tabane Shinonono and it became a weapon more advanced than any other weapon system. The machine that was viewed as the key to the future, ironically doomed it.

Because of this killing machine, women found themselves to be greater than men. Society changed accordingly and justice sided with them. Men were left and was treated like trash, eventually, they were treated as an abomination and were slaughtered.

Young, old, weak or strong, they were killed without any second thoughts.

Women ruled the world during those times, and his gender lived in fear.

Five years of killing and relentless atrocity. He saw the world change with his very eyes. Countless innocent lives were taken and they were forced to live in a world of darkness, while their counterpart lived in luxury and power.

It was only last year when the killings had stopped.

They only considered researching the virus after four and a half years. Then it was proven, that the virus-

DID NOT CAME FROM ANY OF THEM.

And was in fact, a chemical reaction from the nature itself after being exposed to nuclear and from some other factors.

That was the time where the world discovered that they were killings people for no reason at all. Because they were corrupted by their newfound power, they had forgotten that men were people too. They had forgotten what equality means.

But it was already too late.

By this time, after five years of slaughter, the male population were almost gone. From 4 billion, their population were reduced into a mere 1 million. He could say that women were successful in their quest to destroy them.

Because of that war, the trust of men towards women vanished, and their hatred made it worst. The remaining few of his gender decided to live secluded in nations that forbids women from entering, while some decided to live in the environment that was provided by the government. Fewer of them decided to live normally in the society where women stand above men.

Unfortunately, he was forced in the latter.

Because for some reason, Ichika Orimura, was discovered to be capable of using the things that women used to kill countless people, the Infinite Stratos.

...

I.S Academy, was built in an artificial island connected only by a monorail.

This place is where 1,200 female students resides to learn how to pilot Infinite Stratos. I.S Academy is the most prestigious school in existence and all of its students -from all over the world- were considered to be elite of the elites.

This is the place where he would stay for three years.

Ichika boarded off the place with a black backpack. Most of his items were already sent beforehand and his neccesities will be provided by the government. He only needs to study here. The truth is that he had violently refused at first, but was forced anyway.

Even though he knew that the government only wants to make -the remaining- males that there was still hope for equality, by using him, he wasn't really concerned. Because no matter what they do, as long as the Infinite Stratos exist, the world will never forget their atrocities.

And with the current male population reaching only a million, humanity will end.

Because the I.S destroyed the future and the balance of nature itself.

"It's been a while, you looks different."

Ichka gritted his teeth as he heard the voice.

The one who greeted him was the last person that he wanted to see in the world: his sister.

"..."

Ichika only glared at his sister coldly, not bothering to grace her with a response.

"We haven't seen nor talked to each other for five years, and this is how you greet me? Where's the smile and the annoying hug?"

"...!"

His glare only intensified as he resisted the temptation to grab anything and use it make a hole on her head. Even his hands would do.

Because for him, he had no family. The one in front of him was the devil that killed him. She was an evil person that he had wanted to kill for so long.

His sister did not show any reaction to his hostility and instead, merely sighed.

"Not talking huh. If that's the case then let's get this started, I'm sure that my presence here only aggravates you."

I couldn't agree more he thought as he watched Chifuyu to walk. He followed her, although he was walking five meters behind here. The mere sight of her made his blood boil and his vision to darken. He was so tempted to lunge at her and crush her skull with his bare hands.

The only thing preventing him was his own sanity. He may be distorted but he was no fool. He was sure that she could properly defend herself.

"You are required to stay here and study from 3 years. Permission is needed if you want to go in the city. You are not allowed to leave the country. Everything that you need will be provided. Lastly, you are forbidden to use violence unless the situation calls for. That's the only things that you are to do while you're here."

"..."

"You also need to participate in activities like other students. Just like any other student here, you will need to study and pass every subjects. Is there any questions?"

"..."

"Your room will be located on the second floor of the first year dorm. You will share a room with a classmate whether you like it or not. I expect you to restrain yourself from doing anything immoral or violent just like you are doing now. Even if you are the only male I.S pilot, that does not exempt you from the law."

"..."

Even though Ichika did not respond, his footsteps carried more noise, indicating that he was not comfortable on the fact that he will share a room with a stranger, on top of that, a girl.

"Your uniforms will be in your room, along with the manual and your weekly allowance that is 20,000 yen. As I said, you are free to go in the city, but you need permission in order to do so. Just ask the receptionist or any teacher, or me, although I doubt that you would engage conversation with me."

Chifuyu stopped on her track as she stared at him -who was standing five meters away- her expression unreadable as she eyed him from head to toe.

"You have really changed, Ichika," she muttered softly before she turned her back. "Your room is this way, your room mate is already there, follow me."

Ichika didn't even blink as he ignored what she said.

...

Surprisingly, Ichika didn't met anyone when he was heading in his room.

Maybe it was because it's already near midnight and there's an ongoing curfew. He didn't care anyway. He just want at least a single night of peace before being bombarded by girls from all directions. Meeting his former sister and holding back from killing made took much from him.

After Chifuyu left, he stood in front of the room where he will stay along with another girl.

So long as the girl doesn't bother him, nor is an unreasonable bitch, he could live here silently. But if turns out to be a former or the latter, then he would have no choice but to kick her out.

Prison was much better than here anyway.

He swiped his key-card in the lock and opened the door.

The view that greeted him was simple. Two beds, a cupboard in the middle, two cabinet, two deskstop, a shower, and a simple kitchen. The big windows were being covered by dark yellow curtains and the scent of perfume in the air.

"Ah hello. The principal said that I'd be rooming with you. My name is Takatsuki Shizune, pleased to meet you."

The one who greeted him this time was a girl on the same age as him. She had dark blue hair with a pink two hairclips, while her eye matched her hair color. She had a humble smile on her face although he could see that she was a bit nervous.

"..."

Ichika didn't bother to reply and started to check the room once more.

"Ah yes. Your bed is the one in the right. All of your things have been arranged and all we need to do is set the time for shower use. Is it okay for you to use it from 8-10?"

He nodded silently as he checked the cabinet. True to her words, his things had been arranged. He scanned them and found that there was nothing strange. No bugs and no tracking devices.

"Well, I hope that we get along, Orimura-kun-"

Shizune stopped midway as she felt his cold glare being directed at her. She couldn't stop but flinch from the simple action. To begin with, Ichika is someone who had the appearance of a villain. He had a hardened expression, a scary scowl, and cold eyes. He had gained these traits from being hunted for five years by the ultimate killing machines. Even if what he did was a simple glare, even a thug from the alley would be scared, though chances of having a thug in a man-less world is quite low.

"Do not call me that. Just use my first name and there won't be any problems."

Shizune only nodded as her body relaxed when Ichika directed his gaze elsewhere . 'Geez, he can be scary whenever he want...'

She left that wisely unsaid of course.

"Of course, Ichika-san..."

Ichika once again ignored her and gazed at the thick book that was lying on the surface of his bed. 'Looks like I can distract myself in this nightmare even for a few hours.'

...

It took him two hours to read a fourth of the manual.

The time was 1AM and his room mate was already asleep. Ichika decided that he want to see the layout of I.S Academy before he went to sleep. So without making even the slightest of noises, he left him room and silently walked in the dark corridor.

There were still a few students awake and were doing things inside their dorms.

Ichika ignored most of them and only focused on the layout of the second floor. There were 20 rooms overall and the height from here will only give him some scratches should he jump. Not that something bad will happen, but it's better to be paranoid.

Ichika found the stairs and descended silently, he also counted the steps. Why was he doing that? Even he, doesn't have the slightest idea.

A few minutes later, Ichika had arrived outside of the first year dorm.

The dorms were only 50 meters away from the building were the classrooms were located. It was 200 meters away from the large areas that he would guess as the arenas. Those structure were almost 500 meters wide and there were six of them here. I.S Academy sure is large.

Ichika stopped near a pond and took a sit in a nearby bench. He had a suspicion that someone was following him.

True to his suspicion, he heard unrestrained footsteps approaching his way.

"I knew you would sneak out... nii-san."

The voice that called him was happy and had a hint of longing in it. Normally, Ichika would just ignore whoever the spoker was, but this time, he actually turned his gaze so that he could get a clear view of the person who approached him.

"...Madoka."

Unlike Chifuyu, Ichika still feels a little connection to this particular girl. Even though it's not as it used to be, it's enough so that he could speak to her.

"I'm happy to see you nii-san... but it seems like you do not feel the same..."

"..."

Madoka walked even closer and stood in front of him. She stared at him for some good minutes before she sat beside him. Ichika resisted the urge to distance himself.

"...You've really changed nii-san."

Although what she said was true, Ichika wasn't proud of what he has become. He was a lot different now... his hands, are simply stained by blood.

"...It would be best if you don't talk to me again."

Ichika stood up after saying. Even though his resentment in his twin wasn't as hostile as Chifuyu's, simply being with her fills him with bitter memories and excruciating pain.

"I'm really happy to see you, nii-san."

Without saying another word, Ichika left.

...

"A-ano, Ichika-san... are you awake?"

It was 8am when Ichika opened his eyes. The truth is that he had only slept for four hours. No, he had always slept for that amount of time ever since he died. Even the slightest of noises wakes him up, and he had already woke up when his room mate fixed her bed.

"...I am."

Sighing, Ichika removed the blanket that was covering his body. Rubbing his eyes, he started to stretch, ignoring the stare of his room mate. It was too early to be annoyed, not that his day had already been ruined, Being trapped in a place where the people he hates the most are residing, already ruined his life.

And they expect him to live here for three years...

"W-we should probably go to the cafeteria for breakfast, c-class starts at 10 so we haven't much time."

Ichika started to fix his bed before he replied.

"...Go ahead without me."

Shizune seemed to hesitate as she asked; "A-are you sure, Ichika-san?"

"Yes"

"O-okay then!"

With that, Shizune left the room. Ichika grabbed his towel and change of clothes, entering the shower room.

As he removed his shirt, he stared at his torso. It was an ugly sight, even when his body build is fit and developed some muscles that most men would want, the scars covering the skin were quite many. From gunshots, bladed weapons, and burns, his body had them all. Though the most noticeable was the circle scar on his left chest.

His face had also changed, not in structure but in expression. A scowl had been there for more than 7 years and his hardened eyes would sometimes scare someone even though he did not do something like a glare.

But the most noticeable was his hair that had started to undergo gray. Most likely from stress and from his lack of rest.

He could imagine himself fitting the requirements for a villain in a play.

But this was himself. He had already discarded his former self in order to live in the world of untold darkness.

This is the rewrite of my story. I have decided to re create this because I am bored and is currently having a writer's block from my Campione story.

I created this, because I want to try an experiment. What if women became corrupted in their power and viewed themselves to be far more superior? Throw in some crisis and other factors and it will end in the male annihilation.

The Ichika here won't be the same as canon. I designed him to be dark, to hold great resentment against everyone. He experienced all kinds of troubles when he was younger and it formed him into someone else. A cold, merciless, silent person who would relaliate once provoked.

By the way, for those who does not know, Takatsuki Shizune is not an OC. She is a classmate of Ichika from canon and Houki's room mate in the LN. I find her personality to be interesting so I gave her a bigger role than in anime and canon.

I want the heroine to be Tatenashi because she is the only one who would be able to keep up with Ichika. But I'll try to build a harem, although it will be much different than in canon.
