A/N This time it'll be a series! Although, I might not complete it. I tend to abandon things I'm bored of, or get tired of. Bad habit. Gets me into some real serious shit sometimes.
Anywhoo, enjoy what I manage to put out, yeah? :D

Under the Blue Sky
Prologue - Kanda
Kanda was blind. No, it wasn't the result of some tragic accident - everyone seemed to think it was. He has always been, and will always be blind. It was natural to him.
After all, he was born blind.
Even so, he managed live daily life without hindrance. He had a cane, a dark blue one with a black leather strap for his wrist, at the insistence of his...father - and he uses this word loosely. His - father - had also insisted that he get a seeing eye dog, but that was where he drew the line. How the hell was he supposed to take care of the thing? He's not Dr. Do-little for fuck's sake.
Kanda also attended high school - called Black Order Heights, and was in the advanced track. He couldn't write notes - obviously - so he was allowed to record the lectures using his labtop. He also had specially ordered braille versions of the tests and textbooks - courtesy of his "father", a professor at the school.
Normally, a school as prestigious as this would be extremely difficult for anyone to get in, let alone a blind person. However, his father used his connections to get Kanda a braille version of the test and had him take it. Kanda had scored a perfect score, as expected.
So, he was immediately admitted to the school, dropped off at his new apartment by his father, and left in the dust. The events proceeding after that...he'd rather not talk about. It does, however, involve a loud-mouth rabbit - who was actually sorta smart, as he later found out - and a lot of cane abusing - to hit said rabbit.
That was six months ago.
Since then, Kanda had been integrated into a strange group of friends - not willingly on his part, no doubt. His friends - and he also uses this term loosely - consisted of a sometimes-scary-chinese-girl, a beansprout, and a hyperactive-rabbit-with-ADHD-on-crack.
No really. He wasn't joking.
Lenalee was a nice girl. She really was. But she was also fucking scary when she's royally pissed. From what he hears, Lenalee's high kicks were something to be very...very afraid of. Even for someone such as himself.
The beansprout - ahem, he means Allen - was short. Very. Short. At first, Kanda didn't know, until the rabbit said that Allen had to stand on his tippy toes just to pat his head. Since then, beanprout stuck.
Lastly, Lavi the rabbit. He was something Kanda had never encountered before. Sometimes, he found himself wishing he never met him - that rabbit could get onto his fucking last nerves. Lavi knew which buttons to push, and where the lines were drawn. Kanda found himself very confused with that stupid rabbit sometimes.
A/N And there you have it, a beginning. Now lets hope for a middle and an end. Please review after you read and tell me what you think, and where this story could go. I have an idea, but it doesn't hurt to hear others' ideas, right? Of course, I will give credit where it is due. (:
