This will be my first fanfic in the Shakugan no Shana fandom. Anyway, Shakugan no Shana is a great anime and it's one of my favorites.
Disclaimer: I don't own Shakugan no Shana, but story is mine.
Shakugan no Shana: Crimson Revelations
Chapter 1: A Fresh Start
Yuji Sakai's POV
Today marks the start of a new school year. And so, another year had passed me by. To say that last year was pretty interesting is an understatement. A lot had happened that year. It all started with a new student joining our class, Fumina Konoe, who happened to be a faux vessel created by the Supreme Throne, Hecate, to keep an eye on me and the Reiji Maigo inside me.
Hecate is one of the Trinity of Bal Masque, along with Sydonay, a Crimson Lord who can change into various chimeras and another Crimson Lord, Bel Peol, who is the strategist of the Bal Masque. Well of course, the Bal Masque is our main enemy here. Ever since day 1, they had been trying to get the Reiji Maigo from me, along with the mad scientist, Dantalion. But luckily, there are 3 Flame Hazes beside me.
The Interpreter of Condolence (she is also known as the "Chanter of Elegies" because, she uhm, CHANTS!), Ms. Margery Daw, doesn't really care whether the Reiji Maigo is stolen from me. But since her only link to the Silver is inside me, she can't afford to have me erased from existence, so she helps protecting me, I think…
Ms. Wilhelmina Carmel, who is also known as the Manipulator of Ten Thousand Ribbons, also helps to protect me. But at first, she isn't keen on doing that, but then, she's trying to please…
…Shana, the Flame-haired Burning-eyed Hunter. She, uhm, actually is the one who insists on protecting me, but honestly, I can manage to save myself! (Who wouldn't when you've got the Blutsauger in your hands?)
And so, our life continues… We never know when will the Bal Masque strike again or if there will be new Tomogaras who will try to ruin the balance of the world. But this time, without the Bal Masque or any other Tomogaras out there, we'll just try to enjoy a normal life.
End of Yuji Sakai's POV
"Oi, Yuji! Hayaku!" Shana exclaimed, her hands on her hips and she gave the Mystes a stern glance. "We'll be late!"
Yuji Sakai, the brown-haired Mystes, ran towards the waiting Flame-haired Burning-eyed Hunter. But by the time he had reached Shana, she walked away, her long raven locks swishing behind her. "Shana! Matte!"
"We should hurry up. We wouldn't want to be late on our first day back." Shana said nonchalantly as Yuji had caught up to her, and both of them walking towards Misaki High.
Not long enough, both of them had arrived in the front gates of their school. They both saw the brunette Kazumi Yoshida waved at them and Yuji waved back. Kazumi ran towards them and greeted the two, "Ohayou, Shana-san, Sakai-san."
"Ohayou gozaimasu, Yoshida-san." Yuji replied back to the smiling Kazumi. "Did you have a good summer?"
Kazumi nodded as the trio weaved their way through the throng of students chatting to their friends about their vacation. "I did. How about you, Sakai-san? How did the training go? Did Shana-san give you a hard time?" Kazumi asked, peering at Shana and Yuji's reaction.
"It was okay. Yuji learned new techniques with his Blutsauger." Shana replied turning away as a blush formed in her face.
The wielder of the Reiji Maigo laughed feebly as he scratched the back of his head before replying, "Well, Shana DID give me a hard time, but it paid off. I can use my sword more efficiently."
"What sword?" they heard a voice ask from behind them. The three of them turned around and saw Hayato Ike. "What sword, Yuji?" he asked once again.
"S-sword? A-anou, Ike—" Yuji sputtered nervously, but luckily Shana saved him. "He was talking about the PSII game we bought before the vacation, Dynasty Warriors 4. Since he can't use his character properly, I trained him during our summer vacation."
Ike looked contemplative for a moment but he said after, "Okay then." He turned towards Kazumi and greeted her, "Ohayou, Yoshida-chan."
Red hue tainted Kazumi's fair cheeks before saying, "O-ohayou, Ike-san. Anou, I've got to go. I'll meet up with Sakai-chan before the class starts. See you later." She bowed in front of them and sprinted towards the main building, leaving a very confused Shana and Yuji.
"That's odd. Kazumi never acts like that." Shana commented as they continued to walk towards their school building.
Yuji gave Ike a confused glance before questioning him, "What happened between you and Yoshida-san? I know that you two met during our summer vacation."
"Oh, nothing much. By the way, do you think that Sakai-chan will still be the class president?" Ike asked the both of them as they made their way towards their shoe lockers.
Shana merely shrugged as she changed her shoes. "I guess so. Our classmates seem to like Sakai-san," replied Yuji as he placed his shoes inside his shoe locker.
Ayako Sakai is the other Sakai in their room. She just joined their class the previous year. Both of them are shocked, to say the least when they both found out that there is another Sakai in their class. Most of their classmates are intrigued too and inquired the both of them if they are relatives. But Ayako merely shook her head and said, "I never knew him, until now."
Soon enough, the three of them had arrived to their classroom. Familiar faces greeted them and asked how their vacation was. Ike made his way towards Ayako Sakai to talk to her, while Shana and Yuji went to their respective seats.
"Ohayou, Shana-chan!" Matake Ogata greeted (or exclaimed and almost startled poor Shana) Shana as she popped suddenly in Shana's side. "How was your vacation? Did you and Sakai-san have a good time? Oh don't deny it. It's kinda obvious that you two are going out. Congratulations to the both of you! And you two absolutely look good together!" she babbled on continuously as she shook Shana and Yuji's hand (Yuji is in a state of shock, while Shana's reaction was 0.0). But she noticed Eita Tanaka walking inside their classroom so she left the two.
Laughing weakly, Yuji stated, "Well, Ogata-san hasn't changed." He then spotted a yawning Keisaku Satou entered their classroom.
Satou must've noticed that Yuji was staring at him for he said, "Morning."
"Ohayou, Satou-san. Did you have a good vacation?" the blue-eyed Mystes asked Satou.
"Yeah, pretty much. Except when Margery-nee-san decides to have a drinking spree from dusk till dawn," Satou replied as he took his seat, a few seats away from Yuji, but still a good distance to hear what he's saying.
Yuji smiled before saying, "So I guess Margery-san did have another drinking binge last night," thinking about the big-busted Flame Haze who has a drinking habit.
Satou yawned once more before he replied, "Hai. She slept at around 4 am and I needed to finish the report files from the Outlaw so I wasn't able to get quite a decent sleep."
Yuji was to reply when someone walked in. A woman with long blonde hair tied in a ponytail, and wearing a blue pinstripe suit with high heels entered the room. And she was also carrying a green book which was bound in a black rope. Slamming the book down, she greeted them all in her American accent, "Good morning to all of you. I'm Margery Daw, your homeroom teacher for this school year."
A/N:
Oohh, cliffie. I know… I hate cliffhangers too, but I just can't resist. XD
I had this idea a few months ago and I was just busy to write it down.
Oh well…
I just want to ask, do Kei-kun call Margery-san, "nee-san"? Because when Shakugan no Shana was aired here in our country, Kei-kun refers Margery-san as "nee-san".
Short, I know. But I'm still testing the waters before I dive in.
Do you guys support MargeryxKeisaku?
Because if you do, you'd be disappointed. They won't end up together in my fic, although they look cute together, ohohoho…
And yes! Margery-san as their school teacher! I don't know where I got the idea, but it's so cute, and besides, you've got to admit, with her outfit, she looks like a teacher. XD
