Prologue: Where Everything Starts
It was dark at night, with only lampposts lighting up the streets in Academy City.
Academy City, a city that is said to be the heart of science; with its technology at about 30 years ahead of the rest of the world, and most importantly, where Espers were born through their power curriculum program. A place where it doesn't feel right, not safe, foreign, and most certainly not in a certain person's comfort zone. A unknown figure clad in a pure white cloak, with the hood obstructing the view of his face, appears running through the dark alleys. He ran toward a single destination: toward the Windowless Building.
The figure ran without rest, afraid of the possibility of being caught. Caught by who though, is not known to the figure. Nevertheless, he ran to the one safe point in this city, a place where will provide him protection because of a deal and a mission. He ran past the dark alleys and into open, with the assigned destination right in his view. The Windowless Building gave off an aura; not uncomfortable, just foreign. But this aura still made the figure more on guard of this city. Hesitantly, the figure silently walked towards the building. There at the entrance, stood a girl with dark red hair tied into two low ponytails, a military flashlight at hand. The girl noticed the figure and turned her head toward him, opening her mouth to start questioning him.
"Are you the one?" the girl inquired.
The figure said nothing, but silently nod his head. Seeing this, the girl continued.
"The access code, then." the girl once again asked
There was a pause, but then came the reply.
"The fallen one has come to aid the Silver Star." the figure said in a small voice, but it
was heard loud and clear in silence of the night.
Once again, there was a pause, before the girl nodded and walked towards the figure
while muttering a small " code accepted". The figure tensed, but remained still as the
girl walks toward him. When she was right in front of him, the girl reached out and
put her hand on the figure's shoulder. There was another pause, before they both
disappeared.
The two people reappeared inside a quadrangular room of the Windowless Building.
There, countless tubes and pipes covered the walls of the room. Despite the fact that
there are no ventilation in the room, or even the entire building, the air in there is
cool and chilly. The most noticeable feature of the room is the single life support tube.
Inside the tube resides an individual submerged with red liquid. The sight of
individual send chills down the figure's spine. The individual can only be described as
"colorless". The individual is positioned upside down in the tube with his long white
hair floating upward and reaching his ankle. What covers his body is a hospital gown,
and he wear nothing else. The individual seems both feminine and masculine, both
like an adult and a child, like a saint, yet also a criminal. The only accurate
description is that the individual is a "Human".
Standing beside the tube is another person. The person has blonde hair and wears
shorts and a green shirt with floral pattern. Around his neck hung a golden necklace,
while his eyes are covered by sunglasses. You can see that the boy is toned due to his
unbuttoned shirt. The boy turns toward the two new arrivals with a smirk on his face.
"Yo, long time no see Yuuki-nya~, Musujime~ ." The blonde boy addressed the
unknown figure and girl, now known respectively as Yuuki and Musujime.
"Tsuchimikado." replied Yuuki, while Musujime merely "tsk" at Tsuchimikado's
greeting.
"Still that cold nya~."
" You're still too carefree."
Yuuki then proceed to take his hood off, revealing his pale skin, black hair
and strikingly silver eyes. On his lips are a thin smile.
"Hideyoshi Yuuki"
Yuuki, smile gone turned his head toward the voice. The voice that belongs to the
"human".
" Aleister Crowley" Yuuki replied.
"I see that you have safely made it here to Academy City. Now, I must remind you
That you are in the same situation as Tsuchimikado Motoharu. You would be given
special privilege such as access to certain information and give requests like vehicle
and weaponry. Of course, even though I have said that you have special privilege,
you have to understand that some information and requests are off limits."
"Yes"
"Excellent. Another thing is that you would not leak any info of Academy City out of
to outside forces. Otherwise, I would have no choice but to remove you."
"Understood."
Yuuki felt the atmosphere becoming more thick, but replied nevertheless.
"Fantastic. Now, I would have you enrolled to the school Tsuchimikado is. I would
arrange your background and get your ID card and personal accounts. Your living
quarters would be the school dorm. If you need anything else, just request it."
A nod was Yuuki's answer and Musujime proceed to teleport the three of them,
leaving Aleister in the quadrangular room. A few moments of silence passed
before a hologram appeared inside the tube. The screen-like hologram shows a blonde
hair, blue eyed
lady with the appearance of an 18 year old.
"Archbishop Laura Stuart"
"Evening, Aleister. Has he arrived yet?"
"He arrived just now. I have his background already arranged now."
"I see. That's good"
"I have a question for you."
"Oh? Ask away"
"Why did you send another one here? Tsuchimikado Motoharu seems like he's doing
his job well."
"Wellllll… the more the merrier right? That, and that his is quite special."
"In what way is he special?"
"You are aware that a group called God's Right Seat, correct?"
"Yes. The only thing worth notice of them is that they found a way to remove their
Original Sin and their alignment to Angels. Why do you ask?"
"Hideyoshi Yuuki is the one who created the spell that removes one's Original Sin.
God's Right Seat stole the prototype and put it to their own use."
The single statement made the room silence.
"…I see. So who is he aligned to?"
"Lucifer"
The room fell silence once again.
"…..This is certainly interesting. To think that he is aligned to a fallen angel."
"Isn't it? Well, I'll leave you to your own thoughts now."
And with that, the hologram disappeared. A long silence came in the room. After a
while, Aleister spoke again.
"This would certainly be interesting."
Magic side or Science side.
Which side would win? Would both annihilate each other? Would they reach an understanding?
A thin, thin smile played on Aliester's lips.
"I wonder how it would play out."
And Thus, the story begins when Magic side and Science side cross paths.
