Disclaimer: I do not own anything associated with 11eyes (original verison), 11eyes Crossover, 11eyes Resona Forma, the anime adaptation of 11eyes, or the manga adaptation of 11eyes. All these (except for Resona Forma I think since it's a fandisk, but I could be wrong) are the property of Lass. I own nothing, but this story, and my S.I.

I am honestly surprised that 11eyes has so little in the way of decent stories on this sight. The anime was not good, but the original visual novel was great. So, to help get 11eyes fanfiction a little more publicity, I will have my first story feature the world of 11eyes. This story will be a continuation of the ending to the original 11eyes (Sin, Damnation, and the Atonement Girl arc), but will feature Shuu Amami from Crossover, and a majority of the story will take place at the Vatican, roughly one month before the Punishment Squad faces Lieselotte Werckmeister (this takes place around 64 years before the events of the original 11eyes). All I ask is that you give this story a chance, and be gentle on the reviews.

Chapter 1: A New Friend

(Sunday (about a week since Lieselotte was killed) - 8:30 a.m, Kakeru's P.O.V.)

Shuu and I had been hanging out a lot lately. Ever since I had finally killed Lieselotte we have hung out and we got to learn some things about each other. But when he asked if I could meet him in the park on the other end of town, I was a little surprised. Right now, we just sat on a bench and stared at the trees. Finally, he broke the ice by asking, "Kakeru-kun, do you know why I asked you to meet me here?"

I just stared at him blankly and answered, "No. You would not tell me." He nodded as if that had just become known to him. I got slightly irritated and asked, "Do you plan on telling me what we are doing here, Shuu-san?"

He sighed, then he told me, "Kakeru-kun, Shiori-chan told you about how she helped Mio-sama and I with the incident of the Mirror Maze, right?" I nodded, so he continued, "Well, I couldn't help but notice that Shiori-chan, Yuka-chan, Misuzu-sempai and Kukuri-sempai have been hounding you to choose a girlfriend. I just wanted to help you a bit in making your choice."

I sighed and shook my head, "Shuu-san, while I appreciate your help, this isn't just something like asking someone to help you with their homework. This choice could effect my life and the lives of all the girls forever. I don't want to break any hearts, but at the same time if I don't make a choice then things will only get worse. Honestly, no matter how much I wouldn't want it, I had always thought that Takahisa-sama would be the one giving me this kind of advise. At least he has a stable relationship with Yukiko-chan."

Shuu shrugged and responded, "You're also forgetting that Tajima-sama is a huge pervert and would probably say you should date them all. I just want to give you a little help. Your Shiori-chan's friend, so your my friend as well, Kakeru-kun."

I just hung my head and looked at my hands, which were resting on my knees. I suddenly looked at Shuu and asked, "And what would you recommend I do? Pick Shiori-chan because you feel you need to repay her for helping you, or because she is one of your fellow magi, regardless of the type of magic you use? Doing that would be like me just picking Yuka-chan because she has been my friend the longest. This isn't as simple as you'd like to make it out to be."

Suddenly, we heard a shout from the other end of the park, "Kakeru-kun!" We both turned our heads, and I paled. There stood Yuka, with Misuzu, Kukuri and Shiori in hot pursuit.

'Damn, how did they find me? I swore I erased Shuu-san's message before I left, and I'm damn sure I never told anybody where I was going.' I then stood up off the bench and started running for the hills. As the girls began to give chase, I swore I heard Shuu laugh at my torment.

(Yuka's P.O.V.)

"Where could Kakeru-kun be?" I said quietly to myself as I, Misuzu, Shiori and Kukuri began to search for him. I had gone to his apartment to try and get him to have a picnic with me, but when I got there it was empty. I began to search the town and eventually met up with my compatition. Oh, we all knew that each of us were set on getting Kakeru for ourselves. While I thought he should only have me chasing him around town (and thought the others felt the same way), we had agreed that we'd at least help each other find him if we every needed the help. Considering that one of us couldn't get more then a few minutes alone with him before someone (usually another of his potential girlfriends) interrupted them, it seemed fair enough. I ran a little ahead toward a nearby park, where I swore I found Kakeru. "Kakeru-kun!" I shouted out. He and another boy next to him looked at me. My eyes locked with his beautiful blue orbs for only a second, then he got up and bolted. He had made it about halfway out of the park before he smacked into an invisible wall with his face. I gasped, then ran to him. I sat down beside him and placed his head on my lap as he began to stir from his blow. I gave him one of my smiles that he always found cute and said, "Why are you running Kakeru-kun?"

He blinked a little, then bolted up in surprise, "Y-Yuka-san?!" He tried to run passed me, but stopped when he saw Misuzu, Kukuri and Shiori. He ran the other way, only to hit the wall again.

Shiori bluntly stated, "Sorry Kakeru-kun, but we could not let you get away again. So, I set up a few walls around this park. The only way out is through us." As she said that I stood and brushed myself off before joining them in the wall that would block his escape. Kakeru began to panic and tried to run in the other directions he hadn't tried yet, only to get the same results. Then he gave us all a goofy smile and scratched the back of his head.

He said to us all, "Yuka-chan, Misuzu-sempai, Kukuri-sempai, Shiori-chan. What can I do for you all this fine day?" But I could tell he already knew what we wanted, and he started to pale even more. Out of nowhere he shouted, "Shuu, a little help here!"

A calm voice said, "Already done. Now get a move on before they tear you apart." We all turned to the sound of the voice, and I groaned. Misuzu pulled out one of her swords (the black katana one, I can't remember their names all that well) and pointed it at Shuu.

"Damn it Shuu-san! What did you do this time?!" she yelled at him.

He just got up and pointed out, "For one thing, I jammed Shiori-chan's access to the spiritual plain so that the barriers went down. For another, I distracted you all long enough to let little Kakeru escape." I turned around, only to find Kakeru gone and nowhere in sight.

I looked at him blankly and asked, "Where is he?"

Shuu just shrugged and said, "Hell if I know." We all looked at Shuu blankly, then proceeded to give him a major beating. When we had vented our rage on the poor modern magus, we began to look for him all over again.

(several hours later - Kakeru's P.O.V.)

I pounded on the door for all I was worth. I heard someone inside shout, "Jesus Christ, hang on a minute!" The door opened and Takahisa gave me an angry look. But it quickly vanished when he saw me, and replaced it with one of his usual smiles, "Well, what brings you here Romeo?"

I was breathing heavy from my run here as I answered, "I *gasp* need to *pant* hide here. Last place *wheeze* they'll ever look." Takahisa sighed and pulled my into his and Yukiko's apartment. They had gotten it shortly after starting to date, and I knew for a fact that all the girls made a note to avoid it like the plague. It was on the other side of town from the park I had bolted from, in a bad part of town (somehow Takahisa liked it, and Yukiko loved him to much to complain), and he was a huge pervert. All those things, along with Yukiko's killing personally (which was a lot less killing ever since we beat Lieselotte) made this place my only refuge from their constant attack. I couldn't stay here more then a day, and made a habit only to come here when I really needed to. Otherwise, the girls might get the courage to come over, and I'd be doomed.

As I walked in Takahisa shouted, "Yukiko, Kakeru-kun's here!" There was a quiet shuffling sound, then an cute girl in a French maid outfit appeared.

I just stared blankly and asked, "Yukiko-chan, why are you wearing that?"

Yukiko gave a deep blush and Takahisa chuckled, "You couldn't have come at a worse time Romeo." He pulled out a cigarette and a lighter (he lost his pyrokinesis when he died) and lit it. He took a pull from the thing before saying, "We were about to have a go at it, if you know what I mean. For some reason, Yukiko likes to dress up as a French maid when we do it, not that I'm complaining." He gave Yukiko a look that screamed, 'Let me fuck you!' which made Yukiko's blush deepen and made me blush slightly as well.

Finally, she asked, "The others are still hounding you, aren't they?"

I nodded and told them, "I never thought I'd say this, but I wish I still had the Eye of Aeon. At least with it I could know when they'd strike, and Verard might be able to help a bit." It was true; after I killed Lieselotte, Kukuri took the Eye from me. Its powers of precognition had saved me many times, and it would help to have it again. I just sighed, then stated, "It's only 11:30. A little early for sex, don't you think?"

Yukiko just looked at me and said, "Sunday is the only day we have to ourselves with school, my job at the café, and Takahisa's job at that convenience store down the street. We both could use a little release." Takahisa started to laughed at how blunt Yukiko had been, and my embarrassment.

Once he finished, I grabbed a book off the shelf and told them, "Don't mind me. You two can go back to whatever you were doing." Takahisa then grabbed a giggling Yukiko and pulled her into their bedroom.

(Monday - still Kakeru's P.O.V.)

I shook in disgust; all day yesterday I heard Takahisa and Yukiko going at it like a pair of horny rabbits. I definitely should not have given them the green light. 'Note to self: never go to their place on a Sunday.' I just sighed as I made the trek up the hill and into the classroom. At least at school I only had to deal with Yuka and Shiori, instead of all four of them. It was a hollow victory, but I'll take what I can get. As class started the phone on the teachers desk rang. Everyone looked as she answered, gave a few one word answers, then hung up. She said, "Class, it seems we will have a new student joining us today. He has just moved here from America, so please treat him well. He can speak Japanese fluently, so translations are not necessary." A few minutes later, there was a knocking on the door. The teacher said, "Come in," and what I saw next nearly gave me a heart attack. The kid was huge! He had more muscle then a professional body builder, and made the school uniform look way too small on his giant frame even though it fit just fine. He looked like he could bench press a semi-truck with one hand. His hands were huge as well, but their size was just insane (they were at least as twice the size of a normal adult's hands). His hair was pitch black, and his face had a certain look to it that seemed to radiate a calming nature. His eyes though, were something else; they shown as bright as polished silver, and when I looked in them as the kid walked by me, I saw an infinite level of kindness. I could tell that he was a good kid.

(Yuka's P.O.V.)

Dear god, how does a kid get like that? I couldn't help but think that this kid had to be some sort of pro weightlifter, otherwise how the hell could he get like that? But, when I looked in his eyes, which oddly shown silver, I saw that he was a good guy. He somehow managed to wipe away any fears I had of him with that one look.

(Shiori's P.O.V.)

As the new student finished his introduction and walked toward the open seat next to Shuu, I couldn't help but wonder if there was something more to who he was. I felt an affinity for great magic potential within him, but it seemed to be locked deep within by some sort of complicated spell. 'Why would someone lock down their own magic? I do it, but only to make sure my body has enough magic inside it so I can move.' As he took his seat, I got a short glimpse of his eyes. They shown like polished silver and gave me a sense of safety and security. But, I also saw something else that seemed to have only just surfaced. Fear, confusion, both? Whatever it was, I needed to take a look at him and see just who this boy was.

(Shuu's P.O.V.)

I didn't really pay that much attention to the new kid's introduction. I mean they were all the same; always short and ending with how they wanted to be friends. I had my policy of 'don't hate, don't like' until I at least knew him. Still, it was annoying to hear all these things. I suddenly heard my name and open my eyes and waved my hand. The new kid headed toward me, and the teacher had probably assigned him to the seat next to me. As I got a good look at him I thought, 'Well, this kid is defiantly on steroids.' He had a calming feel to him, and I could tell he would make a good friend. But, instead of making a more personal introduction, he just ignored me and listened to the teacher. I shrugged and thought, 'Maybe he is an avid listener.'

I didn't really pay attention to what the teacher was saying. I mean, I could be the top student at this school if I wanted, but I chose not to so that I didn't draw attention to myself. When lunch started though, I felt a pair of eyes on me. I opened one eye, and saw the new kid scratching the back of his head nervously, with his other hand held out. He said, "Hello, I'm James Mellenor, or Mellenor James by your way of pronunciation." I shook his hand, but didn't really care about it.

I then decided to introduce myself, "Hello, I'm Amami Shuu."

I watched a bit in surprise as James seemed to freeze for a moment, many different emotions playing across his face all at once. He then quietly asked, "Amami Shuu? You're sure that's your name?"

I raised an eyebrow at that question. I thought that the kid might be making fun of me, so I responded, "Last I checked. Why, do you have a problem with my name?"

I saw him look at his giant pair of hands, as if in deep thought. Then he stated, "No, it can't be possible." Then, out of nowhere, he grabbed my shoulders in a death grip, making me wince. Before I could even ask what was with him, he asked me, "You aren't Amami Shuu, as in the same Amami Shuu who is the modern magus who took on the witch Kanae Kuroshida, are you?"

My eyes widened when I heard that. How could this kid know about that? I only just met him today, and now he goes and asks if I took on Kanae. And how does he now I'm a modern magus? I asked him, "How do you know about that?" My answer only seemed to make things worse.

I watched as James seemed to be having a mental breakdown right in front of me. I was actually getting concerned when he said, "No. No, no, no, no, no. This can't be happening. IT JUST CAN'T!" He shouted that last sentence, which made me feel a bit bad for the kid. But, I saw that he was actually looking around the room. He seemed to lock eyes with Kakeru, Shiori and Yuka, then looked back at me. The look in his eyes was unmistakable: fear and denial. I watched as he shot out if his chair and bolted out of the room with speed that he had no right to having, given his size.

(third person P.O.V.)

Shuu just sat there in silence for several minutes. Eventually though, Kakeru, Yuka and Shiori went up to him and asked what had happened. "I don't know," he responded, "I introduced myself, then he just had a mental breakdown in front of me. The weird part is he knew about my taking down Kanae and my being a modern magus, even though I had barely spoken to him for a few minutes." They all just stayed like that for several minutes, Shuu sitting and the others standing as they thought the same thing. 'What happened to the new student?'

Finally, Yuka said, "We should try to help him. I bet if we try and talk to him calmly and peacefully we can figure this out and learn a bit about him."

Kakeru nodded in agreement, "Yuka-chan is right. Mellenor-sama seems like a good person, so we should try to help him."

Shiori chose then to speak up. She stated in an emotionless, no nonsense tone, "If he knew about mine, Shuu-san's and Mio-san's battle against Kanae, then it is possible that he knows about the second Battle of Ayame Hill. I will gather the other Fragments. You should go and find Mellenor-sama." They all nodded, then ran off to do their jobs.

(Shiori's P.O.V.)

'How much does Mellenor-sama know about us?' I thought as I headed to Misuzu and Kukuri's classroom. I could see in his eyes that he was a good person, but something about him was...odd. The magic power I felt from him seemed different. He isn't a modern or traditional magus from what I can see; no, the magic I feel from him seems to be more in tune with that of the Voidstone. But, that isn't possible. I saw Kakeru destroy at least one of the fragments before Kukuri killed me. I just shook it off and continued on my way.

Once I reached the right classroom, I walked in and found Misuzu and Kukuri talking in the back. They were apparently trying to find the best ways to ambush Kakeru while at school (probably to try and stay ahead of Yuka and myself since we share a classroom). I cleared my throat, which startled them into noticing me. I gave them a shortened version of what had happened between Shuu and our new student. Kukuri asked when I was done, "So he knows everything about both battles?" I could see her blushing a little at the thought of some stranger knowing she loved what was basically a clone of her brother from her perspective.

I shook my head and responded, "From what I know based on Shuu-san's data, he only knows of the battle of the Hollow Mirror Field. I do not know if he knows of our battle against Lieselotte Werckmeister."

Misuzu asked, "What do you know about him?" She had put heavy emphasis on do, probably wanting to at least paint a broader picture of Mellenor-sama. She may be weaker without her fragment of the Voidstone, but she wasn't stupid and could still use her swords for short intervals, as long as she only used one.

I simply stated, "Not much. From a first impression I can say that he is very strong on the physical level, yet very kind to others. Right now though, something is frightening him. The moment that Shuu-san introduced himself he mentally broke down, as I told you not long ago. Now, please, come with me while I gather Takahisa-kun and Yukiko-chan." Without another word we left the classroom to get the other two Fragments.

We found them on the roof, making out with a vengeance. I shuddered a little as I watched them, and could tell the others were as well. Ever since being revived with our memories of the Red Night and Takahisa being forgiven, he and Yukiko spent nearly every moment they could sucking each other's faces. As we watched though, I began to imagine Kakeru doing things like that with me; ravaging my doll body and making me feel like a normal human in a way only he could. I felt my face heating up, so I quickly dismissed those thoughts and stated bluntly, "If you two do not mind stopping for a minute, I have something to say to you." Even I had to laugh at the reaction they gave when I spoke. After a minute of waiting for Misuzu and Kukuri to calm down, I gave Takahisa and Yukiko the same story I gave Misuzu and Kukuri.

Yukiko was first to speak, "We should help him. It doesn't matter if he knows about those battles, but he shouldn't have to live afraid of them."

Takahisa, for once showing some competence, stated, "I don't think it's the battles that are freaking Mellenor-sama out. I think it is more about us in general." When we all looked at him in confusion, he elaborated, "Think about it: the kid reacted the way he did to Shuu-san's name. He knew Shuu-san was a modern magus and knew about that battle of the Hollow Mirror Field. You say he hasn't been here more then a few hours, so how could he know that Shuu-san was a magus at all? Then, you say he looked at you, Kakeru-kun and Yuka-chan with fear in his eyes. It has to be us, more then the battles that we took part in."

We all just blinked in shock that Takahisa could actually piece something like that together. But, he killed what little respect he gained when he started making out with Yukiko again, the latter not even trying to fight back. Finally though, I said, "Whatever the case, we must help this new student and figure things out."

Just as I said that, my phone rang. When I answered, it was Kakeru on the other line. "Shiori-chan, we found him. We're at the front of the school sitting at a bench. James-san has agreed to speak with us, but wants Misuzu-sempai to summon all five of her swords for something. If she will do that, then he might calm down. See you soon." He hung up, then I told them what Kakeru had said. Misuzu looked nervous about summoning all five of the Kusakabe Five Treasures, but agreed to do it. Finally, we were headed to where we would hopefully be able to unravel this mystery.

(30 minutes ago - Kakeru's P.O.V.)

We ran down the halls looking for Mellenor-san. I said after stopping to catch my breath, "For such a big guy, he sure runs fast."

Yuka nodded and responded, "You wouldn't think he could move all that fast being that he looks so heavy." We continued on, and it took us a good ten minutes before we finally found him. Shuu was looking out a window and saw Mellenor-san's hulking frame on a bench by the school entrance. He pointed this out to us, and without another word we ran to catch him.

We slowly walked up to the bench. Now that we were closer I could see that Mellenor-san was crying a little. I heard light sobs coming from the large man. As we all got closer, he still gave no indication of hearing us. Finally though, Yuka sat down beside him and gently place a hand on his lap. After a moment, he looked up at Yuka, and was greeted with one of her adorable smiles. She patted his lap, then asked in a concerned tone of voice, "Why are you crying?"

If Mellenor-san gave any indication of Shuu or I being there, then I didn't see it. He just looked up at Yuka, and came face-to-face with one of her adorable smiles. He looked away and said, "It's nothing you should worry about Minase-sama. My view on reality is messed up as it is. I don't want to hurt you."

But, Yuka got one of her determined looks on and I knew she wasn't going to let this go. It was just like whenever she was alone with me and then we suddenly get found out before anything could happen, only this time she wasn't determined to rape me. She placed a friendly hand on his face and said, "Please, Mellenor-san -"

She was suddenly cut off by him saying, "Please, James is fine." He looked at Shuu and I and said, "You two as well. James is fine."

Yuka continued, "James-san, please, let us help you. You seem to know about all of us, but we don't know anything about you. Please, talk to us and let us try to help you. Our friends want to hear your story as well, and we all want to help." She then gave James her puppy eyes. I don't care who you are, because once you see Yuka with that face you litterally can't say no. I should know, considering she has used it on many occasions to convince me to try having sex with her; key word being 'try'.

James looked at her, then sighed and nodded. "Okay." Yuka started jumping for joy, but stopped when he continued, "But first, I want to see something. I want to see all five of the Kusakabe Five Treasures summoned right in front of me. Then, I'll tell you what I know." We all nodded in agreement, then I made a call to Shiori and told her everything. Once I hung up, James sighed and buried his head in his hands again.

(third person P.O.V.)

It didn't take long for Shiroi to arrive with everyone. When those who had not seen James yet saw him, they all went wide-eyed. Takahisa thought, 'Okay, remember not to piss this kid off. He looks like he could crush me with one finger.' Yukiko thought, 'I bet he's just a big softy under all that muscle.' Kukuri thought, 'He looks like a good kid who could use a friend.' She proceeded to sit on James's other side, while Misuzu thought, 'What could this boy want with my swords?' Finally though, Misuzu asked, "Why do want me to summon my swords?"

James looked up and at Misuzu and said quietly, "Proof." Everyone was confused, but she ignored it and focused all her power on calling her swords. After about ten minutes, all five of the legendary blades floated between her and James. He nodded, then let out a huge sigh and actually smiled, "Good. Those swords were the only way I would be able to believe it."

Misuzu was too exhausted to speak, so Kukuri asked, "Believe what, James-san was it?" James stood and turned so he faced everyone, then said simply, "It proves, Kukuri-sempai, that I have left my home behind and somehow have been pulled into another universe. This universe."

Everything was dead silent for several minutes. They all just stood/sat their, so quietly that you could hear a pin drop on a feather pillow from five meters away.

Then, the group of friends all shouted out, "WHAT?!" After that, everyone started asking questions all at once. The voices got mixed around so much that James couldn't understand anything. Finally, he clapped his hands. The loud noise getting everyone's attention and he said, "I know it isn't easy to believe, and I sure as hell didn't believe it was possible until I saw Misuzu-sempai summon her swords. Besides, you all shouldn't really be thinking it as impossible. I mean, the Kukuri-sempai you all know is an alternate reality double of Kakeru-sama's dead sister after all." That statement seemed to calm everyone down somewhat. Then, James said, "How about I tell you all how I got here."

I should warn anyone who wants to read this story that my updates not might be all that consistent. I almost have half of this story already typed up, but I have now become subjected to writers block. I will post the other chapters on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, so that I will at least have some time to write the next chapters.

As for James, this will be my persona in my stories. I will post a bio of him on my profile if you want to know a bit about him.

Reviews are appreciated, but again, please be gentle.
