Hello, everyone. It's everyone's favorite dxd witch, Houki Minami with a new story. Some times from here, I'm pretty busy with my old stories, and nowadays it has been hard to keep something original here in my mind, so I'll try to write a very light-hearted story this time to counter what is happening in DxD: R as for now. It doesn't mean it won't work, so good luck for me.

Also, don't worry, this is a future fic, so no loli-kunou or loli-lilith, just as a warning. BAM! CATCHYA!

As always, dxd doesn't belong to me~.

Did you ever fall in love?

I never thought I would. Even when I enrolled in Kuoh academy with my dear childhood friends, I thought I would pass unnoticed by romance and girls, like I always did for the pass years. For once, even if Kuoh academy was known to be a former all-girl school only recently opening its door for a co-ed education, it wouldn't be a problem since guys with girlfriends here in Kuoh are rumored to be flayed alive by a strange club of loveless loners, and I like to stay as far as possible from those scary problems. Add for the fact that girls outnumber boys by a huge margin, I was here hoping for a smooth, safe, trouble-less high-school years...

But then, it happened... I fell in love. The moment my eyes gazed at them, my heart was clutched to the upmost limit, and I couldn't think of anything but them. Yes, them. I fell in love with two girls, the most popular and prettiest girls in Kuoh academy, and while I knew such idea is a scumbag's thought, I couldn't help it, my heart was guiding me towards them, not for one more, not for one less, I loved them both with the same intensity. Why? I don't know, I simply don't know, I just know this: I've never felt this way. And every time I would bump into back at any moment, my heart starts racing, and I feel out of breath. So this is how falling in love feels like...

One day, I don't know what came into me, I just did what I did: put a letter to each of their shoe lockers telling them to meet me at the back of the School. It was a stupid idea, it was a dumb idea, but I couldn't think of anything, and I was in a state of mind that abandons any form of logic or reasoning, all due to love. Of course, when I came to be, it was too late, and I couldn't help but want the floor to eat me whole. The deed was already done, there was nothing I could do but to do it, as much is pains me. It immensely does...

In the end, there they were, my two crushes, waiting by the entrance of Kuoh academy for me. Since they are apparently old friends, they keep on talking to each other about that like nothing has ever happened. I had no other choice after that little slip of the moment, so I charged at them, lungs filled with air and, in a last desperate second of courage, I called for them, saying it as I who placed a small letter on both of their shoe-lockers, and with that Out of the way, I gathered all of my spirit, bowed as low as I humanly could and said:

"I-I... I like you both! Please, go out with me!"

And after of few seconds of pure, complete tension, I raised my eyes to look at them, and their answers were...

"A big and fat NO, from both of them. I don't know what you were expecting, Takkun." My childhood friend Sakurano Ryousuke laughed at my expenses, while I would feel the weight of his words on my head pushing me even further into my own desk during lunchtime, since I was sulking into it myself. Uuuuh~, he's right, what was I thinking? Declaring myself to both of the prettiest girls in Kuoh academy at the same time, that was a banquet for disaster. I don't know what happened to me. I lifted my gaze to see my dark-haired friend while the brown stare would fall on me with another laugh. "Seriously, they might be pretty close, but I think a threesome is not the perfect way to start a relationship, specially for a high-schooler like us."

"It's not like that, Ryou-chan." I pouted at him for his crude words. That's a mean thing to say. I mean, I know that with what I just did, it seems that I was looking for a two-on-one thing, but that's not it. I really don't know, but I started to like both of them the same way, in a way I don't actually know how to explain. But I can't blame him for thinking that. Am I a scumbag for doing that? Some people might think that. "It's just... There's something like an... Aura surrounding them, that makes both of them attractive. I know it's not lust, but I don't know how to explain it..."

"Inari Kunou and Hyoudou Risu, the two madonnas of Kuoh academy, with flawless appearances, top grades, superior athletic prowess and last but not least, the biggest OPPAIs in Kuoh academy." Still with my face glued to my table, I turned around to face my another friend Ikeda Isamu as he would adjust his sunglasses and flash me a mischievous stare and a grin, also pushing some bleached-blond bangs out of his forehead. He then bombastically points at me. "Takkun, you dog! Wanting to hog such tittied beauties all to yourself! As a friend, I congratulate your efforts and dreams, but as a man, I hope you die!"

"Like I said, it's not like that, Issan." I moaned, sighing. Yeah, I know, they're extremely beautiful, they get the highest scores at tests and they can do pretty impressive sports maneuvers, not to mention they both have the most plentiful pair of tits I've the pleasure to witness... But like I said, there's more to them than those, even though those qualities are indeed a plus, at least for me. "It's not like that..."

"Whatever the reason, Takumi, you better be careful with how you handle this." My third and final childhood friend, Nanami Touya, warned me, pushing the brims of his glasses and illuminating us with the top of his shaved head. A cold shiver ran down my spine after hearing that. Of course it would, after all, this is Kuoh academy. "You never know when The Squad might be hearing you."

Rumours says that, not long ago, a pair of students known only as Motohama and Matsuda, in their college years in Kuoh academy, grew so jealous of an ex-friend of them, they formed a rather obscure 'phantom organization' in the entrails of Kuoh academy known as The Anti-Youth Squad. Said group, which numbers and members are both unknown, goes around the campus looking for pretty boys or guys already in a relationship and beats them to a pulp, until the no longer want to come to school anymore so they won't 'soil Kuoh's ground with their youth'. Since they act so fast and nobody knows how one enters said group, the school faculty can't do anything about it, so everybody with a girlfriend or a pretty face lives in fear. Just thinking about them makes me feel a bit anxious, and that's the second reason why I almost gave up meeting with Risu-san and Kunou-san. I sigh...

"I know that, Touya. Like I said, it was a spurt of the moment, it was on impulse. I dunno, but I just... Did it." Even with all things said and done, I'm still a little embarrassed about saying this out loud. My first love confession and rejection came from two girls at the same time, I don't know if I should feel embarrassed or proud of myself, but the lingering fear of the said Anti-Youth Squad is what takes control. Not that... I regret something or anything. In the end, it happened, I confessed my love, and then got rejected, but It's something. This is youth, I guess. In the end, however, I sank myself on the table, sighing. "Fwaaah~, at least I did it, despite everything. It feels kinda bad, though..."

"And this is why we losers should stick to PORNO!" And then Ryou-chan tossed a porn magazine on my table, echoing a slapping sound around our classroom. I shot my head upwards seeing that magazine with the scandalous cover! What, did he just bring another one of those dirty things to school again?! My other two friends crossed their arms and nodded, like they're approving that. "Takkun, you're still too naive for the ways of the world! Having a relationship is only for those with nothing to lose or something else to gain! Love is simply a natural reaction from our brains to find a perfect partner and mate in order to propagate our species, this is why in this day and age there is so many divorces and unhappy marriages! That's why, as men, we should stick to porn magazines, which are cheaper, faster, and has no attachment to it whatsoever!"

"Besides, those girls in magazines do things no girls our age would dare to even think about it!" Issan said with a lick on his lips, unfolding his ero-manga collection and flipping its pages to show it to the world!

"No comment, but I do agree." Touya then laughs under his breath, picking from his backpack a swimsuit catalogue with stains all over it. Soon enough, I found myself surrounded by a trio of perverts reading adult dirty magazines without a single care in the world, while the rest of our classmates would mutter cruel and nasty things about them, including me into the mix, calling us the cruel Four Perverted Demon Lords of Kuoh academy. I turned around to say something and maybe put some reason into their heads, Ryou-chan handed me one of his magazines with a pretty girl in a scandalous outfit on the cover.

"And as part of the Four Perverted Demon Lords, Takkun, indulge yourself into the sweet embrace of 2D and never-neglecting girls!" My dark-haired childhood friend was practically shoving his ero-magazine into my face I thought I could feel Covergirl-san's smooth bosom. The four perverted demon lords, eh? Not s nickname one should be proud of, but it's not like I can't do anything about it hanging out with them.

I tried to dismiss those perverted pages out of my face but Ryou-chan's determination was too strong, so I sighed and picked said magazine from him. It's not what it looks like, it's just their way to cheer me up after such devastating event, but even so, showing dirty pictures in the middle of the class during lunchtime is embarrassing. Even so, the Covergirl-san is really pretty, and she's wearing such a daring lingerie. Ah~, I'm starting to think just like them, and I do like Kunou-san and Risu-san so reading those kinds of things feels really wrong... But, but maybe just a pick wouldn't hurt.

"Okay, okay. Geez Ryou-chan, you shouldn't cheer me up like this, it's embarrassing...!" We all laughed with that, with me still holding the said dirty magazine on my hands, and soon enough, while everyone was gossiping and talking dirty of us, I sighed, but reached my fingers for the pages. How is it again? Ryou-chan says there's always a centerfold with the prettiest girl somewhere in the middle. And I want to see... I want to see this pretty girl. Ah, It's both exciting yet embarrassing, seeing one of those in the middle of the class. But even so... My palms are sweaty, my heart is beating so fast! This is my first Porn Magazine, and I don't know what awaits for me! I take a deep breath, reach for said pages and the-...!

*VUPT!*

"Ah...!" And... It's gone! The ero-magazine that was just in my hands is gone! I clenched my hands in their air just to process what just happened, and then blinked in surprise seeing nothing at all! All of my friends gasped as well seeing such freaky thing happening!

"Well, well. I could've expect such thing from three of the Perverted Demon Lords, but to see Higurashi-kun holding such shameful magazines... I can only say I'm disappointed." I know this voice coming from the back of my neck. I turn around into that same direction, and there she was: the president of the security and disciplinary committee, Kiba Tozuka, playing with a string of her silver-coloured ponytail with one hand while the other was holding Ryou-chan's magazine! Ah, she's the one who took it. I tried to reach for it, but Kiba-san was faster and took one step away from me! "Whoops~, sorry Higurashi-kun, but this will go directly to the committee office!"

"Oh no. C'mon, Kiba-san." I said with a miserable tone, while everybody around started to talk about me! It's not like that! It's that is Ryou-chan's magazine, not mine! I feel so guilty for letting it be caught, it's making me feel a bit dizzy. I again try to reach for her, and again she jumps away from me. "C'mon Kiba-san! Give it back, that one is not even mine!"

"I'm sorry Higurashi-kun, but I'll still confiscate this... Indecent subject as my job as the president of the disciplinary committee. As you can see, it's out of my hands." She shrugs with a sigh, turning around and leaving our classroom still with Ryou-chan's magazine at hands, waving it around like a trophy while other students would fawn all over her, telling her how she saved them. Before she could leave, however, she turns around and gives me a comforting look. I guess, I mean. "Just be happy that I won't report you. After all, you're a good kid, just hanging out with those losers..."

"..." I pout. "Ah, man..."

"Fuck You, Kiba! Slut! Bitch! WHOOOOOOOOOREEEEEE~...!" And completely cutting our stares, my trio of friends stood up from their chairs and started shouting insults at Kiba-san! Oh no, they're starting a ruckus again! Kiba-san's expression soured and she didn't give us another sight before leaving, while I was left here trying to calm my friends down! "DIE, YOU PRETTY GIRL! I HOPE YOU GET GANGBANGED IN THE TRAIN BY A BUNCH OF OLD GUYS! GO SUCK A DICK, PRESIDENT OF THE DICK-CIPLINARY COMMITTEE!"

"A-Ah! Ryou-chan! Issan! Touya! Calm down~! You'll get in trouble~!" I beg them to stop, but they wouldn't stop shouting those mean things, all while our classmates would look at us with nasty stares and talk mean things on our back. Their disgust and contempt were starting to creep on me, and even when facing the hysteria of my three childhood friends, I could hear some of them saying their own thoughts...

'Ugh, they are at it again, the four perverted demon lords...'

'Those four are asking to be arrested as potential rapists! What is the school staff thinking letting them enter Kuoh Academy! They belong in jail!'

'Too bad they're perverts. They're even kinda cute, specially Ikeda-kun. So unfair...'

'Ew, don't stare too much! I heard they can grope you with just their stares, it's creepy~!'

Sigh...

Yes, those are us, the Four Perverted Demon Lords of Kuoh academy. And I am one of them, Hugurashi 'Perverted Serpent King' Takumi...

"Waaaah~, my precious porn~! Taken so easily by the bitch of the dick-sciplinary committee~! I hope she dies with a cock in her mouth~!" And now doing the same thing I did a while ago, Ryou-chan had his face on his table, sulking and crying over his lost 'treasure', still speaking ill about Kiba-san. I know he can be kinda extreme with those words, but now I feel really bad for his loss.

"I'm really sorry about that, Ryou-chan! If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't've lost your porn! I'm really sorry!" I say clapping my hands together for him in forgiveness. I know we're friends for so long, but I hope he doesn't hate me for losing his precious porn! A small laugh escapes my lips, realizing how embarrassing and awkward that was, but when I turn around to look at him, Ryou-chan had no more tears in his eyes, and now was staring back at me. He blinks, and on reflex I clap my hands even harder I close my eyes! When I turn back at him, he smirks.

"Hahah~, c'mon now, Takkun. I'm just kidding. No need to be get so worked-up about that." He sighs. Phew~, what a relief! Here I was thinking he was mad at me or something. But even so, I should compensate him somehow later for that little slip of mine, since my conscious won't let me rest for that. In the end, Ryou-chan lifts his downed head from the table, snaps his fingers a few times, then smirks at me with a thumb up. "But Y'know what? I won't say anything else. If you think those two are the... Ones, then you have my total support!"

"Yeah, go get them, King Serpent!" Issan did the same with that same thumb up and smirk, smoothly hiding his own porn under the table. "But just so you know, if you ever get caught by the squad, you won't be able to say we didn't warn you! Just kidding!"

"Yep, you're on your own now, Takumi. Good luck." And finally, my last friend Touya gave me a last thumbs up, meaning that the trio was totally fine with my decision.

"Guys..." I sighed. W-What? Why are my eyes stingy? I think I got something on them, but it feels nice, being surrounded by them. They've been like this since we were just a bunch of kids in the same neighborhood, which makes me wonder why they even bother to hang out with me. Oh well, if anything fails, at least I know they'll have my back. At least I know they're my friends to the end. I lifted that same thumbs up and then we fist-bumped, all the four of us, like one would with drinks. "Thanks, guys. You're the best!"

"Of course we are."

"Definitely."

"Hahah..."

Yes, those peaceful days could last forever...

"Eh~? Nee-chan, you'll do extra hour again?!" I almost dropped the spoon mixing up the curry for dinner when Ryuko-neechan said she was going to overwork herself at the office again! And here I thought we were going to have a normal dinner night today. I even prepared her favorite for the weekend, and she goes ahead and say she won't be coming home for it! What a bummer. "Nee-chan, you can't keep overworking yourself. It's unhealthy, and you'll end up sick again."

'Sorry sorry, little bro. But my boss is an idiot and I'm the only one who can fix her mess~! I won't be for too long, I promise.' I hear her apologetical voice across the line, and hearing such heavy words dripping with pity, I could only sigh to her. Okay, maybe I'll put it in the freezer for her to eat later tonight. She apparently heard my response, and her cheery voice returned in a flash. 'Thanks; Takumi. Just put my share in the freezer or something, I promise I'll eat and save some in case that happens again.'

"Promise?" I asked her, and her positive response with a gleeful 'uh-hum' made me relax at last, as I finished finished my call, then my own dish and put the rest on a container and then into the freezer. I hope she won't just eat a quick don dish and overwork again, I'm kinda worried about her, specially since this is the third day she spends on extra hour and I'm starting to feel a bit bothered. Not because I'm eating alone again, that too but still, she needs to eat healthily, and God knows she can't cook for herself back at the office. I hope she gets a boyfriend there which can cook as good as me for her...

Oh well, I ate my supper of curry and rice plus a mini-salad and orange juice, again all by myself, and after a quick digestion, I cleaned up the dishes and sat on the sofa of our little apartment home. Again, I'm all alone here. No contact with either Mom or dad ever since their divorce, and Ryuko-neechan is on work again to provide for us ever since we escaped them. I could call any of my friends, but they're probably 'busy' with their own 'business', if you know what I mean. Nothing to say or do, only sir here and look at the ceiling and little by little my mind is filled with thoughts.

...

Ugh~... I shouldn't've been a creep and invited both Kunou-san and Risu-san to meet me! I'm so stupid, I don't even know what fell into me to come up with this idea. Sure, they're both so pretty and charming, not to mention that same mysterious and enticing aura they both have. I feel attracted to them... Like I've never felt before. Ah~, am I thinking too much? Nee-chan did say love makes you dumb. Maybe it's because they're also the only ones besides Ryou-chan, Issan and Touya who don't mind this bleached hair of mine, which turned white when bleach fell on it a while ago... No, it can't be. But it does help a lot...

Come to think about them, I still owe Ryou-chan for what happened earlier today. He got his porn magazine confiscated because of me, and Kiba-san kinda got yelled out by them. I wonder, is he okay with that? I don't want him to hate me, and while we're friends, it'll be really hard to talk to him after what happened. Maybe... Maybe I should compensate him somehow. Anyhow. I look at the clock, and I must say, it's barely 7 p.m., so maybe the convention store is still open.

What am I thinking, to buy a Porno magazine in the middle of the night because of a friend? I mean, Ryou-chan did say that one was precious to him, but no so much that it could potentially ruin our lifelong friendship, right? I mean... He is a grade-A pervert, and porn and women are his life; but no so much for our bond as true friends, right? I mean... C'mon, what are the chances of that happening?. Ahahahahaha! Ahahahahah!

Ahahahahah...

Ahaha... Ahahah...

Ahah...

Hah...

...

...

*ZOOOOOOOOM~!*

"I AM SORRY, RYOOOOOOOOOU-CHAAAAAAAAAN~...!"

"Hey Higurashi! Keep it down!"

"Uh~... Here, this one, that's all."

"..."

"I-It's not for me, mister. It's for a f-friend..."

"I heard that one before..."

"I... Lost his older one, so I'm buying a new one for him so he won't hate me."

"Kid, you're just making it worse. Just take this cover and go."

And just like that, I bought a new Porno for Ryou-chan. The shopkeeper is a scary muscular man who tops me by a head, and his judgmental eyes were piercing me like hot knives, but at least he didn't ask questions, and didn't bother much with my choice of shopping. Now I can be at peace knowing that Ryou-chan won't be mad at me. I mean, I did spent some extra yens on this one, but that's what friends are for, right? Besides, like I said before, Covergirl-san is really pretty, and has a very... Voluptuous figure.

Huh... I wonder if nee-chan is back home already. Lukewarm curry is the worst compared to cold or hot ones. Probably not. Maybe there's time for... I mean...

...

*DIN-DON! DIN-DON!*

"One more of those, please? For me; this time."

"See? It's not that hard to be honest, kid!"

And for that I bought another dirty magazine for myself. I mean, at least it's a different magazine, so when I'm done, Ryou-chan can borrow it. This covergirl-san is also really beautiful, but thinking about makes me feel I'm cheating on the first covergirl-san... And now I think I'm cheating myself. I wonder if this is what Nee-chan means when she says I overthink things. I mean, when it is thinking too much and not thinking at all? So confusing...

Well, at least mission accomplished. I got a new magazine for Ryou-chan and another for myself, now to get home and hide both of them before Nee-chan comes back from work. I take a quick glance at my watch and realizes how much time I still have since she usually comes home around 11pm or so. I have plenty of time since I don't need to cook for her again, but what should I do now? I take another glance at the magazines on the plastic bag on my arm... Uuuuh~, well...

No one is around, right? I mean, it's not like I'll take an ill look, I'll just make sure that this is the right one. No one is around, and even if there was anyone here, it's too dark to anyone to notice. Great, I'll... I'll just take a quick look to see if it's not ripped apart or that shopkeeper scammed me up. This is for the sake of a friend, right? Nothing wrong with it... I take another look around, and seeing that deserted place with a few lightposts around me, I reached for Ryou-chan's magazine, and took it from the plastic cover it has. Wow~, covergirl-san is even more beautiful recently out of the paper! I cough; recompose myself and sigh. This is not my first time, but again... My palms are sweaty, my heart is beating so fast! I don't know what awaits me yet again! I take a deep breath, reach for said pages and the-...!

"Higurashi-kun...?"

"KYAAAAAAAAAH...!" That voice! That! Voice! That feminine voice that reaches my ears like harps of angels! I react to it as one would expect, then, stiff as a rock toy, I slowly turn around to the direction where I heard that voice, a horrified expression stilted on my face. I wish I was just dreaming, but when I fully knew what awaited for me, things got even messier in my head! Hah! Why her?! Of all people, WHY HER?! "A-Ah! Kunou-san!"

Yes, here she is. Eyes and hair tinted in the most illustrious and pure gold, fair skin as a doll, that it looks it'd rip off with just one touch; shining aura, warm and blinding as the sun, and those enormous breasts that would probably kill any man in a hug! Inari Kunou, one of the most popular idols in Kuoh academy, is here right in front of me! Why now of all times?! I quickly dodged her stare and hid my magazines away from them, all backing up from her presence! She wide her eyes in surprise to my reaction, while I bow to her!

"Higurashi-kun, what are you doing here? You should know this place is very isolated, and I must say, you're not safe here!" She calls me or with that silky voice as I enter cloud nine with that. Ah, so she cares about me! No, wait, this is just one of your delusions, Takumi! I slap myself for thinking that stupid idea. Kunou-san sighs, looking at me yet again with those topaz eyes. "Frankly, I would've not expect this kind of recklessness from you, Your title of the perverted serpent King notwithstanding. Anyhow, with that said, allow me to take you to safety before anything happens."

"Oh, My bad, but thanks for worrying about me." I said with a smile, a simple smile. Yes, this is the Kunou-san I fell in love with. She cares about people despite her high-and-mighty speech going on. Some people find it too much, but I think it's charming. I so sheepishly scratch one of my cheeks in embarrassment, and she smiles at me. I reach for her hand. "Okay, I think we should just get out of here. I can't let you go alone as w-...!"

Then I froze the moment it hits me.

I'm carrying not one, but TWO dirty magazines!

And if I walk together with her there's no way she won't see them!

If Kunou-san ever sees them...!

'Kyaaaaah~! What a wicked soul you are, Higurashi-kun! I shall tell your inner uncontrollable desires for the whole student body! You won't ever get a lover after I reveal your truly despicable self! NEEEEEVEEEEEER...!'

'NOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!'

...

No, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is going a little overboard even for me. Kunou-san is not the type that would spread all over Kuoh academy that one of its students is a porn-seeking pervert considering that 9/10 of all boys going there are perverts, the rest being the edgy and chuunibyou-filled minority. Even so, it'd be embarrassing to be caught red-handed with two porn magazines, even more by my own crush. So instead I took a step backwards away from her, my magazines hidden behind my back. I won't let her see them.

"O-On second thought, Kunou-san, I think I know where my house is! So, huh, While I appreciate your concern, I think I can... Figure things out for myself." I said with every step away from her. It pains me to see her expressions change so suddenly to hopeful to confused, but I believe that I'd rather see that than her expresssion if she ever thinks the worst of me. Kunou-san blinks once, twice. "So, uh... See you tomorrow. Have... A safe trip back home."

"What? Higurashi-kun, what nonsense are thou speaking? If help is offered, you should graciously accept it." She says in a hurt, yet careful tone, taking a step toward, which I respond with a step back, hiding the bag with my own body. Another step toward, another step back. "Don't be ridiculous, Higurashi-kun, this place is too dangerous for you. Accept my assistance, and I shall guide you to safety."

"I really, really appreciate your worrying about me, but... Uh... I'll have to refuse." I said with another step back. Oh no, my voice is starting to shake with her being so close to me, and I think she's starting to get angry! That's so lame. "C'mon, Kunou-san. If people ever sees us like this, they'll think...!"

"Is it about what happened early today?" Ah! That's a sore spot even now~! It hits a bullseye on my heart, and for that I almost crumbled away in shame and embarrassment! I shake my head to get rid of those, getting rid of the beads of sweet running down my forehead, and take another step backwards for another step forward. She's trying to corner me! "Don't be foolish, Higurashi-kun. The little embarrassment of your rejection should not taint the better judgment your have about me. By sulking into your own misery, you're refusing assistance in this time of need. I beg of you, put aside your shame and take my hand to safety."

"..." GWAAAAAAAH~! She's not making this any better! Of all people, the one who tries to help is Kunou-san?! What kind of twisted game of fates is this?! My whole soul is being crushed by her unintentionally cruel words, and I'm starting to hyperventilate, so much I'm almost breezing! I need to go! I have to go! Go away from her before she sees my porn or breaks my heart! Instead of taking another step back only to make her go forward, I take a deep breath, turn around as the oppose of her, and then... "Kunou-san..."

"Higurashi...?"

"I'm..."

*VOOOOOOOOOSH!*

Get away from her as fast as possible!

"I'M SO SOOOOOOOORRRRYYYY...!"

"H-Hah...?! Wait: Higurashi-kun...!"

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorr-...!"

*BITE!*

...

Eh...?

I can't... Feel the ground under my feet...

I can't... Feel anything...

I thought it was just a small moment of weakness, where I would shut down even for a second and do something stupid while at it, but no. I blink once, twice, and before I knew it, I could not feel the ground. I could only feel... The violent air blowing on my body, as I would be dragged by something. It took me a few seconds to realize I was flying...

"G-Gwaaaaaah!" I exclaimed! What's going on?! Am I flying?! No, I'm being dragged! I can't feel my left arm, and there's blood everywhere! I try to find anything to hold down to, but I'm completely lost! I turn around, and notice what was happening: a giant, skeletal monster was dragging me up the air! WHAT IS GOING ON?! "GAAAAAAAAAAH...! WHAT THE F-...!"

*CRACK!*

And I was silenced by another sound, this time, the time of my left shoulder cracking while it was being crushed by that monster's teeth! I could only scream in pain as flesh would now give in and I slid off that monster's mouth, the remaining flesh ripping off from the rest of me! Now I was free-falling from the sky, with nothing to hold down to, and seeing only lights as the pain would make me lose focus and grip onto reality! It hurts! It hurts!

It all came to a halt when I landed on something, something that while it softened my fall, it made me crack even more bones. Where... Where am I? It hurts so much, I can't even turn my head around to see this place, but by the look of the lights from nearby, I can assume I'm somewhere tall. My eyes, trembling, look around to see anything else, and once it landed on the left part of my body, I didn't scream because I couldn't: where my arm used to be is only now a stub. No, worst than that: it's been ripped of from me, so all of the nerves and bones are still hanging out from it. It... It hurts... Why... What is... Happening?

*BAM!*

"MeaT..." The whole place trembles, and my lifeless body jumps and then lands her again with the impact. My eyes, lazy now that my whole body went numb with all the pain and fatigue, go overdrive looking for the reason of that sound, and to my horror, there it is again: that skeletal monster. It was big, and dark, and was oozing such a nasty, horrendous aura I felt like throwing up. There was no flesh or organs, just bones, as it eyes would shine a single ominous for each from their otherwise hollow sockets, and the figure of a gigantic dragon's skeleton, white as pearls. What... What is that? It... Landed right in front of me, and from its enormous jaw of square and small, but countless teeth, it repeated. "mEAt... MeAt...!"

"N-No..." I tried to fight it, but that monster went ahead and bit my right shoulder, taking another knack out of it... I'm getting... Sleepy... The pain... Is too much...

Is this... Hell? Am I dying? Why... Why is this happening? Is it because I bought that dirty magazine? Or I forgot to turn the stove on that one time? Or maybe I declared myself to Kunou-San and Risu-san the same time? I don't know, but I think... I'm dying. I... I don't want to die... I still have to prepare dinner for my sister... I still need... To graduate for my high-school years... I still... need to...

... Return Ryou-chan's porn.

I... Don't want to die.

I don't want to die.

"MEAT... MeAT...!" After taking another knack out of me, that monster turns around to me once again. I can't see very well, darkness and blood are covering my sight. But I think... It wants more. No, not again. If it takes another bite... I'll die for sure. I can't... Move. I can't... Protect myself. But... But...! "MeAt... mEAt...!"

"N-No, please..." I so pathetically try to move, my armless and moribund self using all the strength on my broken legs to crawl as far away as it can, but to no use, I couldn't move from my place. It's coming closer now, closer and closer, it's mouth oozing acid and blood, it's putrid breath reaching for me, and the eyes... The eyes that only screams death. No, stay away. Please. "Stay away... Leave me alone... Please, I don't want... I don't...!"

"MEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAT...!"

"I don't want to die!"

*PLIM!*

I thought it was the end. I couldn't feel a thing, so I could only wonder: was I dead? Is this the end for me? Is this how death is? However, a few seconds passed, and before I knew it, my reaction to danger ceased, so I could now open my eyes and realize... I wasn't dead. I look forward, and dead on it's tracks, that monster from before was frozen into place. However, this wasn't the first thing I notice, it was another thing: there was a third figure in here. In front of me, hovering midair by some kind of trick, was a book. A big, thick and old-looking book with crimson cover decorated with several silver crosses, emanating a warm and gentle white aura, making me look at it, mesmerized yet confused.

"What the...?" I asked myself, but then, the book started to turn in high speed, and then it stopped one of its covers to me, revealing a... Jester-looking cover that was moving on its on?! That figure made me think it was looking at me, and really, after a while, the image of the head of a jester of white face and cross decorations started to speak in midair. "W-What...?!"

[HYAHAHAH! THE WORDS OF THE SAVIOUR HAS THE POWER! BY THE END OF DAYS, I SHALL SPEAK A LETTER, AND THAT LETTER WILL BECOME YOUR SWORD AGAINST EVIL! FOR I AM...!]

[GOSPEL JESTER!] (Reading as 'Words of the Saviour')

[NOW GIVE ME A GOOD ONE, YA FOOL~! TWURURURURU~...!] I don't know what's going on! Gospel Jester?! Is that its name? And after all was said and done, said book suddenly opens its pages and starts to flip itself at high speed! What's going on?! That monster, who was quiet up until then, turned its empty sockets to me, then to... 'Gospel Jester', then Back to me. I'm having a bad feeling about this, which only concluded as the monster roars yet again, all while the pages won't stop flipping!

"MEEEEAAAAAAAATTT...!" It screams, charging all of its mass and aura against me! I can't move, I can't scream for help, death was written all over this scenario as things couldn't get darker and bloodier, but when I thought the end was near, That book suddenly stopped in a single page, a big red 'B' on it, and then for some reason, it's clean white aura started to ooze from its pages, making it look it caught itself on fire.

[B- THE BLAZE!] It screamed, and suddenly, before my eyes, when that monster was about to swallow me whole, *FOOOOOSH!*, a true inferno of blue flames was unleashed against it, making it scream in agony. My eyes were so blurred and distorted, I thought I was hallucinating, but it was true, that book screamed something in English, and out of nowhere, it unleashed a storm of blue fire, which engulfed that monster in it, making that enormous creature a simple silhouette dancing into the azure hell. Before I knew it... It was over. The monster, long dead,'only ashes of it, and the book, Gospel Jester, once its fire ceased, it danced on air a few times, then turned the Jester-face to me. [AND NOW SILENCE. AS FOR THE REVELATIONS NOW RESTS. AMEN!]

"W-Wait...!" I have so many questions, so many things in my head right now, and this thing probably knows everything that is happening, but when I tried to reach it, in another poof of smoke, it disappeared from sight, and suddenly, my body became so heavy.

Was it this? Is my body... Giving up now? I feel... So tired. Ah, maybe death is catching up with me... This is... Bad. Ah, I want to live so bad, but now that the pain is numbed, at least I can say I won't die like a dog's death. Dying like this, a little relieved... Is so calming... at least... I know Nee-chan won't be hungry tonight, but I think this will be her time to eat all alone...

Before things could end, I heard something. I heard voices. My vision was blurry, but I could see two figures right in front of me, landing from apparently the sky, as they would approach me. One was golden-haired, and the other was pale, dark-haired... ahahahahah... Am I thinking about Kunou-san and Risu-san in a time like this? This is... Really... Lame. Before things could end.. I heard them saying...

"Lilith-chan, have you seen what just transpired? Higurashi-kun... Has a Sacred Gear!"

"Umuh. Interesting. Let's help. Lilith will help."

And then... Darkness.

Am I... Dead?

...

...

'Nee-chan! Nee-chan! You're so cool! You're so smart, and beautiful, and nice in sports! I want to be just like you when I grow up!'

'Don't say that, Takumi. One's worth should not be evaluated by what they know or what the do. I've told you this a million times.'

'B-But... Nee-chan is really cool!'

'Takumi, don't think about it too much, you're still so young. When you grow up, you'll see that despite what you're saying... You have something I don't, and that makes you better than me.'

'Really?! Cool, can you tell me?!'

'Sigh. You won't understand much, but okay. Takumi, what makes you so special is...'

"Nee-chan!" I reached for the girl right in front of me, and before I knew it, instead I was reaching my left hand to the ceiling.

H-Huh...? What the...?! I jump from my bed in surprise! Wait; what?! Wait, I'm in my own bed?! Didn't I... I mean?! Huh?! Was that...?! Was that a nightmare? I remember going outside to buy Ryou-chan a new porn magazine that I made him lose to Tozuka-san, then I bumped into Kunou-san, and after some words, I tried to reach for her, only to...

Ugh~... Monster... Blood and darkness... [GOSPEL JESTER]... My head is spinning so much. What in the world? I couldn't take the pain in my head, so my body started to fall, but I supported myself on my two hands to just stand up and...!

*MUNYU~!*

*MUNYU~!*

"M-'Munyu~'...?" That sound... That feeling. It's soft, and warm, and squishy. Wait, what? I don't remember having those kind of pillows. Confused as I would never could be, I slowly turned around to see what my hands were groping, and I could see... black hair and onyx eyes, and golden eyes and hair, all splattered over my sheets, and skin, so much skin. Nothing but their birthday suits, with the sheets covering only the necessary! And in the end... My hands were sinking, sinking into their naked bosoms, so soft and warm.

Kunou-san and Risu-san... Are on my bed... Naked. And only now... I notice I'm naked too.

"Yawn~! Higurashi-kun, awake already?"

"Umuh. Morning. Takumi."

"..."

WHAT IS EVEN GOING ON HERE?!

I think we're up to a good start, since our mc no longer is a virgin. THAT WAS FAST! But yeah, I hope you enjoyed the chapter and wait for more into the future. until then, greetings~ from Houki~!
