A/N: If you saw me typed, "Tanaka" instead of "Tainaka" I did it on purpose. It's not a wrong typo or whatsoever.

"Class, settle down. Before we start the lesson, I would like to inform you that we have a new student in this class. Please, behave yourself." The man turned his head towards the door and it opens by itself, revealing a person, who has a shoulder-length brown hair, with big headphones on his head. "Ehem, Tanaka-san, you may come inside the classroom now." The brunette keeps on humming tones, all the while ignoring the teacher. "Tanaka-san, I said you may come inside now."

Once again, the so-called 'Tanaka-san' didn't even bother to open his eyes.

This was getting on the teacher's nerves. He takes a glance at one of the students inside the classroom, he signals the boy to make the brunette snap out from his thoughts to the reality. The boy nods, then he closes his eyes and…

SNAP!

"Ouch! Fuck… what the heck was that…?" The brunette finally speaks up as he is trying to get up with both feet. Once he looks at the door—which was wide open for more than five minutes—the brunette gulps, nervousness settling in. "Crap…"

"Thank you, Kurosaki-san." The teacher sends a small smile to the boy and walks towards the door. "I can make an exception, since you're new here, but I warn you, there will be no next time."

"U- Uh… I'm really sorry, uh… Sir…"

"What's done is done. Just make sure you don't easily ignore your own teachers/tutors/professors or even seniors in the future. Now get inside and introduce yourself, then take your seat so that we can start the lesson. You've wasted half of my teaching schedule for this class already."

"Y- Yes." With that said the brunette walks towards the classroom. Very soon, he is standing in front of the students. "Hi there, I'm a new kid in this school or academy, my name is Tanaka Ritsu." For some weird reason, it was so obvious to the rest of the students that 'Tanaka Ritsu' is a girl, a tomboy. After bowing down, she flashed a grin. "Yoroshiku Oneigashimasu, everyone."

Ritsu's POV: Flashback

A beautiful day, the most beautiful day or even more than that, if that is even possible to happen, but it's happening now to my life and how I want to thank God for giving me such great people. Yeah, this is what I always wanted in my life… this is what my brother always wanted… after our parents' death.

"Ricchan, why are you crying?" The little girl asked me worriedly and could only let out a chuckle. I shook my head in denial. "Ehh? Don't lie to me, Ricchan… Just tell me, why are you crying just now?"

"It's okay, Mio-chan~ Hehehe! I got dust in my eyes; that's all! Eheh, oh, where is Satoshi and your parents?" I asked, as I realized that there was only Mio and I playing at the backyard of Mio's house.

WOSH! BANG! CLANK!

My eyes quickly widens in fear. Those voices are coming from inside Mio's house. "R- Ricchan… what was… what is happening…?" Clinging onto me, I could visibly see the terrifying expression Mio has drawn on her face. CRASH! We hear another sound, it was so loud, and for the first time in my life, I am scared.

Then again, this is I, Ritsu. There's nothing that could scare me away, not even this. So I tried to muster my bravery with all my might. "Mio-chan! Stay behind me, we'll go inside your house to see what's going on now!" I shout, as I hold Mio's hand tightly.

When I take my second step towards her house, she stops me. I look back at her, she is so scared, and hell, if I could just be brave enough to encourage her now. The fact is… I'm also scared, so why don't we just make this one fair? My only family member is in there, probably in danger, and so are Mio's parents. C'mon, for this once, be brave to help them! I don't want to lose any more people I love!

That's enough… my parents should be more than enough… "Mio-chan, we need to get inside now! Please, don't be scared… just stay behind me and don't ever let go… I'll protect you…" Protect? I will protect her? For the sake of the Universe, I'm only a five year old kid! How am I supposed to help or even protect her?

It's too late, I said it… I promised… and I'll keep it.

CLANK! BAM!

The voices started to get to me. It gave me lots of bad thoughts about Mio's parents and my brother—No… it can't be, he's brave just like me, he's even braver than me… he'll make it through even if the worst thing would happen now.

Both Mio and I gasp as we see the kitchen, a total mess, along with the living room. I couldn't find any words to say, I only led Mio to walk towards her parents' bedroom.

"Heh, there's no point in hiding the kid from us. It only leads you to your death." The voice is so strange, so heavy and… so scary in many ways… "It should've been a lot easier if you just give us the kid. After all, we'll be taking him by force if you don't want to give him."

"The portal is ready. We only have thirty five seconds to pass before it closes."

I shushed Mio, and we ended up hiding behind the wall of the bedroom. The door was opened, and that's why we could hear those voices clearly from here. I hear them talking about a 'portal', and I can't really process it in my head.

"Oh, you're lucky, Akiyama. You won't be meeting me anymore, because I will finish you here and now." My eyes went wide when Mio shakes off her hand from mine and runs to the bedroom.

"STOP! Don't… please… don't kill my parents… they've done nothing wrong… please, sir…" I heard Mio beg, tears falling from her eyes, and I know that those tears are unstoppable at the moment. It hurts, it hurts me like hell to see Mio, my best friend, crying and kneeling down helplessly like that, begging for mercy.

But I'm scared… I'm too scared to show myself… to be there… to help and defend them like Mio did.

"Tch! What is this? So she's your daughter, eh? What a coincidence, I could just kill the whole family now, so there will be no trace of your bloodline. Haha! What a perfect timing to be here, Little-girl~ Don't worry, it might hurt, but only just for a few minutes, then you'll feel a lot better than ever. Trust me, Mio-chan."

No… not Mio too… tsk!

"Finish them, L."

"Any last words, little-Akiyama?"

No… "Okaa-san… Otou-san… Gomen…" No… "Satoshi-kun… Gomen…" No… "R- Ricchan… Gomen…"

WOOOSH!

"NO! STOP IT!"
