Prologue
In a dark alley late at night, a boy who was 17 years old walked straight into the alley to find the person he was looking for. And successfully, he found the person.
"You brought the stuff?" The boy in front of her asked.
"You brought the money?" She questioned him.
He nodded his head and placed the money on the table. She took it and counted the amount before giving him what he needed. He gave her a look before looking through the stuff in the bag. Making sure the stuff he wanted was there. After confirming, he nodded his head and left. But before he did,
"Nice doing business with you." She said before disappearing into the mist with the money in hand.
She placed the stack of money with the other stacks of money piled up on a table near her bed.
"Another business, another load of money." She muttered to herself before taking off her hood and cloak revealing purple hair that tumbled down onto her shoulders with matching purple eyes.
Not many has seen how she looked like underneath her hood, nor would she allow them to see her real face. But most of all, no one could tell if she was a boy or a girl.
Who was this girl? Her name was Mammon Esper.
Beep! ... Beep! ... Beep!
Mammon groaned as she heard the familiar beeping sound coming from her alarm clock. She rested her head on the pillow with her blanket on top of her whole body. She lazily reached out to the clock and shut the alarm.
She sighed, 'Time to the start the day.'
She got up in a sitting position and removed the blanket from her body. She got out of bed and stretched her arms and body. She didn't want to open the curtains because she didn't want to find someone sitting on a tree branch, looking through her window to find her half-naked and to know her gender. (It happened once and lets just say that the person disappeared from school)
The illusionist walked towards her bathroom and turned on the lights. Her eyes narrowed as it adjusted to the bright light.
She hopped in the shower and did her daily needs. Brush teeth, shower, put on clothes and finally took a glass of strawberry milk with some toast.
Mammon lived on her own. After her parents died from a car crash, she was left to be independent and responsible for her life. She had started doing business (selling some illegal stuff) as a 13 year old, her parents who were part of a mafia family didn't approve of it but she did it anyways. And all that paid up.
She managed to rent a cheap and nice apartment with supplies in it. Though what Mammon didn't like about it was that she had to pay monthly. And that unsettled the illusionist greatly.
She made sure to put an illusion around her place and walked away.
"There 'it' is.."
"Yeah..."
As Mammon walked inside the gates of the Namimori High, people were whispering around her, talking about her like she was some mysterious creature. No one knows about her gender and it was difficult to determine it so people called her an 'it' or 'him'.
She went to a regular government school, it was mafia-free and there were no signs of enemies around. Which was less troublesome for her.
"Hey little runt, step aside." Except for the bullies.
She didn't have to look up from the ground as she knew who was in front of her, it was a couple of the girls who would usually try to bully her because no one knows about her gender and that she was pretty short. But, the keyword : try.
"Mu.. What if I don't want to?"
The leader of the group, Saaya smirked, "Or else we'll just have to move you aside."
"Hmm~ I'd like to see you try." She challenged.
Saaya curled her hand into a fist and thrusted forward and managed to land a blow on Mammon's face... But she was met with nothing but air.
Her eyes widened and turned around to find Mammon walking away into the school, "Eh, how the hell did I miss?!"
"Fran-kun, later on, can you sit with us for lunch?" A girl approached him.
Fran lazily looked up at her, "Hm.. No thank you. I'm gonna be busy around that time." He lied.
The girl slightly frowned then smiled, "Oh, okay then. See you later, Fran-kun."
Sporting at the age of 16, Fran was popular with a lot of people in his school for some odd reason. He never had any proper friends and at most when he gets annoying, he gets punched but everyone wondered why his pain sounded so monotone, as if he didn't feel it.
Fran sighed then heard the sliding door open, revealing his home room teacher, Ichigo-sensei who also teaches them math.
"Ohayo, minna-san. before we start, I'm going to take your attendance." She called out names and ticked each one who was present.
"Mammon Esper?"
There was no raised hand or a 'Hai'. Fran turned to look around to see if Mammon was there. 'Who is Mammon again?'
Just then, the sliding door opened revealing a person clad in black with a hood on his/her head.
"Mu~ hai, sensei."
Ichigo smiled up at Mammon, "Mammon, please don't be late again."
The illusionist simply nodded and walked towards her seat, which was right next to Fran's. Fran turned his head a little to take a better look at Mammon.
He didn't notice she was in his class before. 'Hmm.. Maybe that one week to Spain mission had made me lose my memory of my classmates.' He thought.
Mammon could feel Fran observing her from his seat as she simply sat and took down some notes. After a while, it started to get irritating so she crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it at him.
"Itai, Mammon-san." Fran said without feeling hurt at all.
"Hmph, who told you to stare at me for too long? As for that, you have to pay me 10 euros." She said.
"Why?"
"Because I'm not free, stupid kid."
"I'm not a kid, we're the same age, Mammon-san. But you look more of a kid than me since you're short."
"Mu~ I don't need to waste my time on you."
"Mammon, Fran-kun, please pay attention." Ichigo said sweetly.
The two looked up at the teacher and nodded their heads. Ichigo smiled then returned to writing down the formulas for what ever it was she was teaching them.
Mammon sighed, she was bored already, so she placed a real illusion of her using mist flames and silently disappeared from class.
Fran's eyes widened, did he just saw what he thought he saw? Hmm maybe he should find out more about 'him'. He thought.
Fran got up from his chair and made his way to the cafeteria to get some sandwiches, a bottle of water and a bottle of strawberry milk.
He made his way up to the rooftops, ignoring the looks he got from a couple of girls who were his fangirls and fanclub. He pushed the door open to find no one around.
"Mammon-san, I know you're out here." He called out while holding up the food and drinks in his hands. "I brought strawberry milk for you."
Just as he suspected, mist flames had surrounded in front of him then revealed the said illusionist.
"Mu.. How did you know?" She asked.
"Well, it might take awhile so why not we talk over some lunch?"
She looked carefully through her hood at the food and drinks in his hand then nodded her head.
"Fine."
The two managed to settle down at a corner of the rooftop. Fran offered Mammon a sandwich and she accepted it.
"You still haven't answered my question, Fran." She spoke up after they sat down silently.
"Hm? Oh, I guess you could say I'm also like you."
She raised an eyebrow that couldn't be seen, "Don't group yourself with me. I'm nothing like you."
Fran stared at her for awhile then said, "You are a mist user and an illusionist, am I right, Mammon-san?"
Mammon let out a small chuckle and a smirk, "Smart kid. You're one as well." It wasn't a question but rather a statement.
"I told you before, Mammon-san. I'm not a kid. We're the same age."
Mammon's left eyebrow twitched even though not visible, Fran knew she was getting annoyed.
As she finished drinking her strawberry milk, she sighed then got up.
"Oh, where are you going, Mammon-san?"
"Where do you think? I'm going back to class." just as she was about to twist the door of the rooftop open, a hand suddenly stopped her and she turned to face Fran who was a few inches taller than her.
"Wait for me, Mammon-san."
A vein popped on her forehead and she glared up at him even though i was not visible, "Listen here, just because we are mist users and illusionists, it doesn't mean you are the same as me. I'm more powerful than you so don't get any funny ideas."
Fran raised an eyebrow, "How would you know, Mammon-san?"
Before Mammon said anything, she snatched her wrist away from him and held it in her hand, "I know because I could sense how strong you are. You are nothing compared to me so be gone and pretend we never had this conversation again."
After she said that, she walked out the door leaving Fran behind. He 'tsk'ed then took out his phone and dialed his 'friend'.
"Ushishi.. What do you want, frog?" The other person in the line asked.
"Ahh, senpai, could you and the others come here to Japan? I found someone interesting and I think you will like it."
"Hmm?... I'll talk with captain about it." In the other line, the person wondered what could have perked the interest of the illusionist and think that he could like it? "Hmm~ I'm curious indeed.. Ushishi~"
