spirits talking

Zen talking

Blahblahblah : thoughts

"NO! Don't!"

Kaito crawled up on the floor, badly beaten to half death. It was a miracle that he still lived to that point, but he forced himself to crawl. Both of his legs from knees down were already rotting. His feet may as well be dead.

" Kaito! Stop it!"

In front of him, a girl with brown hair, although it was irrelevant, since the light there was blood red. Kaito rose up, his body wreathed in blue fire. It took all he had to stay on his two knees. And it took more than he thought to make sure his powers stay on and alert. However, it was not enough. The girl was confined to a grey coffin with spikes inside, with her retaliating, but the wires were powerful enough to slowly drag her inside. They eventually overpowered her and dragged her in. Before she was completely sucked in, she thrust out her hand to him.

" AKANE!"

The last thing he heard from his lover was a loud cry and the last thing he looked was a bloody smile on her face, before the coffin shut itself. He wailed in agony as his lover was reduced to mere energy.

Chapter 1

"Kaito, wake up!" A loud voice echoed from downstairs. A black haired, lean teenager groaned in irritation and stretched lazily.

"COME DOWN ALREADY!" She shouted again

He quickly got up, and ran like a beast downstairs, not wanting to make his mother angry, since it would be totally scary. After getting downstairs, he ate like all normal people would. Basically , a very normal morning for a very normal person.

{Hey, don't swallow it too fast! You'll choke!} Ethereal voice rang in his head.

"Well, you're awake"

{Yeah, Zen is not, though.}

Kaito simply sighed for his spirit's lazy attitude. Why couldn't he at least wake up when he was? Very . Annoying .

He walked like a zombie to Kuoh Academy, a recently renowned co-ed school, although the males weren't that many compared to girls.

"Bro, swat off that gloomy look already! We're going to Kuoh, you know?" Issei slapped his back.

"Y-yeah. Should be fun"

He couldn't help it if his dreams were killing him, though.

"Totally! We'll make our very own harems…" He started to doze off with stars on his eyes AND a perverted face

"He never changed"

Actually, Issei and Kaito had known each other since childhood, since their houses were near and a certain girl dragging them to church every Sunday. After she left, Kaito had to put up with Issei's perverted brains alone, and let's say it wasn't very pleasant for him.

{Meh , just put up with him. He's one of your few human friends after all.}

" I always do, you know. I'm lucky to have him as my friend"

Because of the boy's low number in school, the males were divided into three categories. First, the princes, second, the normals, and last, perverts. Unfortunately, Issei became the very worst pervert in school, earning him plus M&M (you know whom I mean) the three perverts. As for Kaito, even though his looks alone could earn him a title, but her hair just wouldn't let him have it, not that he wanted to anyway.

[A rogue spirit in the old school building] the 'voice' whispered

"I know"

Meanwhile…

A red-headed beauty and a yamato nadeshiko were standing near a door, naming 'Occult Research Club'. Their actions were downright suspicious. They were extending their arms to the door while sweating beads. However, that could be justified considering something was wreaking havoc inside their supposed clubroom.

" Rias, what is this?! It's too powerful for an average stray!"

The black haired yamato nadeshiko nearly screamed while trying to keep the beast inside. The pressure was simply too much, even for both of them.

" I don't know! Its demonic power isn't that strong, but it's something else, and it's weird…I've never felt it before."

*ROOAARR*

" My!"

Rias Gremory lost her balance due to the shock, but managed to stand still. After long effort, a red sigil finally appeared on the door, much to their relief.

" At last…"

" Right. Now, Akeno. Why don't we have lunch?"

Issei and the double Ms were trying to peep at the kendo girls, and of course, got beat like punching bags again. The usual routine. While they were occupied, Kaito walked inside the old school building. He smirked like a maniac when he found what he's looking, a lingering rogue spirit.

" Looks like you're busted, eh?!" He shouted at the corridor.

For a while, there was nothing but a breeze from the winds outside. But then, a chuckle was heard.

"Some human comes to play~~" A hollow but disembodied voice was heard. The darkness nearby started to spin around him, forming a man with only half of his body. God knows where the other half go. Seeing that, Kaito's grin turned even more bizarre.

"Hunting time" He said as dozens of katanas materialized nearby.

Meanwhile…

A red head was choking on her tea when she heard a scream from the corridors. She quickly put her cup down and ran to the source of that horrific sound just before. And look what she found there.

" HEY, COME BACK HERE!"

"The heck is that?!" Rias shouted in her head.

She marched outside her temporary clubroom and found someone chasing after a hologram of the monster she just sealed this afternoon. The boy was wielding two katanas, much to her chagrin, being a japanophile as she was. However, the situation was really serious. Despite being a hologram, that boy injured it with fast and accurate slashes.

"His sword skills are far better than Yuuto, that's for sure."

Her eyes could barely follow his movements. Tea forgotten, and she quickly followed that mysterious boy swiftly. They stopped in front of a room with a red insignia on its door. Rias wanted to shout warnings, but before she could open her mouth he already sliced the door to little pieces.

Oh, the horror.

The reinforced magical seal she worked so hard to make with Akeno was destroyed like a paper bag. And here she thought her magic was high-class. The next moment, she found the boy grabbing the stray's head and pulled an orb out. After that, he laughed and drove it to his mouth. The moment it touched his tongue, he puked

" Damn foul… Not even the soul is good." He complained

Rias shuddered at the horrible sight before her. She fought her instincts to run and hide from him. Whatever he was, he's surely up to no good. And she thought she's the devil. But, before she could run, the guy raised his head.

" You're there, aren't you?"

She really wanted to close her eyes and scream, but with all her willpower, managed not to do so. He was wearing a kitsune mask with black patterns on it. But, she sensed no malice directed towards her, so why should she be scared?

Simple.

He released killing intent all around himself

" Kaito! Where were you, man? I looked all over for you" Issei and Kaito walked across the bridge. The school was finally done, and

" Um, you are Kurayama Kaito and Hyoudou Issei, right?" Two cute girls with black school uniforms stopped them on their tracks. Being a hopeless pervert, Issei used all his effort not to drool, while Kaito put up a poker face.

"Kurayama Kaito, I-I've always liked you. Would you please, become my lover?" The black haired one said with a red hue on her cheeks. He peeked at Issei who got totally distracted by his girl's breasts, barely keeping his blood in check.

"O-okay . I can't refuse such a beautiful girl like you. Please take care of me" He bowed to her like a gentleman should. It was so rare that girl confessed to him, and he was so shocked and nervous to the point he didn't feel the obvious killing intent.

"It's Yuuma. Take care of me, okay?" She cheerfully replied.

"Okay, Yuuma-san."He took mental notes.

"Uh-huh. So, how about a date next Sunday? " She spoke, still smiling.

"Fine with me"

"Looks like Issei's done too" He thought.

As Kaito got home, he finally showed his flushed face he'd been hiding since Yuuma asked him out. For as long as his life, this was the first time he got asked out. By a very cute girl, no less.

" Damn, I can fly to heaven right now !" He screamed to his pillow like a madman.

[Better watch out. She's clearly not your everyday girl] A gruff voice bellowed from his left hand.

" I know Zec! But this is just… GREAT!" He chuckled heartily among his words.

[What's going on? He found himself a girlfriend?] This time, an ethereal man, a girl, and a male appeared in his room. Kaito just smiled along with them, his very first friends, the spirits from neighborhood.

" Done! The date plans for tomorrow is done!" He turned off the lamp and jumped to his bed and closed his eyes.

(Sunday)

Kaito came to the station 15 minutes earlier than he should, partially because he was totally nervous, and second, he didn't want to risk coming late. During that 15 minutes, he checked his clothes again. A black T-shirt, jeans and a grey jacket. Nothing out of ordinary, or so he hoped. Later, Yuuma came running to him.

"Sorry~~ Am I late?" She tried to catch her breath. Kaito just looked at her. A pink blouse that perfectly matched her white skin, a red skirt that looked cute on her and last but not least, a short sleeved jacket to compliment the rest of her attire. In a nutshell, she was gorgeous.

" You look… great"

"Aw come on. You said that already." She pouted

Kaito thinked for a while, and was thinking that maybe, just maybe Yuuma thought of him as the usual flirty street guy.

" But, honestly, you look great, and no I'm NOT a flirt. So everything you hear from me, it's the very truth." He said with a serious face, catching her off-guard. Yuuma blushed a little, and this time, a real blush.

" Uh yeah, thanks, I guess." She muttered

~~TIMESKIP~~

Yuuma wasn't her usual self today. At first, she was really happy, and then her face started to look sad, and even sadder when dawn came.

"Kaito… This is a really great date. I-I enjoyed it very much…" She said, holding Kaito's sleeve. Kaito rubbed her head affectionately and whispered 'of course' to her.

" But, I'm sorry"

A light spear pierced through his abdomen, burning his flesh profusely. He saw Issei, also dying, with his spirit link. Kuoh had several parks, and Issei was brutally murdered by his blue-haired navy girlfriend.

"I'm sorry….I'm sorry, I really am…" She cried her eyes out, and Kaito could see her heart broke when she impaled him with a spear. He could see genuine sadness in her eyes, and woman's tears never lied.

" Don't waste your tears on me, okay?"

It would be sad if she cried over someone irrelevant like him, so he cupped her cheeks with his hands and stroked them.

Then, he died.

{ Geez, he just had to die, didn't he?} Zen thought angrily. As a thousand years old being, he knew what kind of plan here, but thing just didn't go his way.

{Well, his body is still usable, just need a little fix here and there…} Kaito's wound started to heal by itself, and he stood like a zombie.

{When you wake up, you won't be the same}

Well, that wrapped it up! What do you think?
