Eyyyy! I'm going to start another mini AU series ww I'm actually going to probably upload this really fast, just to finish it as quickly as I can.

Based on my headcanons for this certain AU

Basically its about the Kagepro kids after they "defeat" the Heat haze- except!?

"W-We did it..." Shintarou said wearily, slumping to his knees on the grassy plain. Everyone, who was pulled into the haze, was pulled out too. A happy ending, or so Shintarou thought.

"Who are you?" Kido asked, out of nowhere, staring in disbelief and Kano whose arm was wrapped around her. "W-" She hastily pushed Kano away from her, blushing heavily, and quickly took her older sister by the arm, pulling her off with her to the city.

Soon, it wasn't only Kido who began questioning. Everyone, slowly, began to ask the same thing, walking off when they couldn't get an answer.

And soon, Shintarou himself forgot.

-8 years after the heat haze-

"Nii-san! Wake up!"

Shintarou had immediately woken up at that point, his hair messy and his clothes disarranged on his body. Over the years, he had grown to be a light sleeper, and could be easily woken up by Momo's yells. This, painfully, helped him a lot during working days.

The bright, morning sunlight shone through the large glass panes of his bedroom, making him wince slightly at the pain that was inflicted on his eyes due to the bright light. He sluggishly dragged himself out of the bed, and he shuddered, at the feeling of his bare feet touching the cold wooden floor.

This new room, part of a giant 2-bedroom, one kitchen and living room apartment that he had acquired recently with Momo (for an abnormally good deal)- was spacious. It was, at first, a bit too spacious for his liking, but it was good for his job- which involved an abnormal amount of organization and reference books on body parts and diseases. So in the end, he grew to like it.

"Nii-san, are you awake already?" Momo called from behind the rosewood door.

Shintarou stopped abruptly in his path towards the bathroom, and poked his head out of the bathroom door, and managed a weary, "Yeah..." hoping that his sister heard that.

"You're late!" Momo pouted, stuffing a piece of buttered toast into her brother's mouth as he stepped out of his bedroom. Over the past 8 years, she had still kept her hair short, but now, it had been dyed to a golden honey brown, and permed wavy- and her signature side ponytail still remained.

Her fashion sense is getting better though, Shintarou noted whilst muttering unintelligible words behind the toast, hastily shrugging on his jacket before pulling the bread out of his mouth. "Well? How's my hair?"

"She'll like it. You'll look like you fit your job instead of looking like a 26-year old hikkiNEET," Momo snickered, taking out a pair of glasses from her pocket, and placing it on Shintarou's face. "Don't make her wait long for you. But you don't have to wait for me, there's apparently a car coming to pick me up in 10 minutes."

"A new television program they want you on?"

"Yeah. It's about going around the popular stores in the city, and interviewing the managers or something about it."

"Sounds interesting," Shintarou said with a smile from the doorway, closing the door slowly as he saw his sister smile back at him.

"I'm sorry, I'm late, Ayano!" Shintarou yelled, as he approached a young lady, with shoulder length dark brown hair, with a smile that made his heart skip a beat, and feel warm and fuzzy. However, he could still feel bits of undigested bread bouncing around in his stomach, making him feel slightly sick. I guess this is how an indigestion feels like, Shintarou thought dryly, remembering how he had ran all the way to the train station whilst eating his breakfast in order not to be late.

"You're not late, the train hasn't even arrived yet," Ayano laughed, smiling widely. "Anyways, good morning, Shintarou!" and by the moment Ayano had greeted him, the train arrived, on the dot, sending everyone blowing along with the strong wind. As the train came to the halt, opening its doors like a giant mouth inviting everyone in, Shintarou and Ayano began to burst into laughter.

They both continued laughing as they got on to the train, finding their places conveniently near the entrance, overlooking the scenery passing by outside the window. "Your timing is, as always, impeccable." Shintarou grinned.

"And that's why you love me," Ayano joked, reaching slightly for Shintarou's hand. It was soft, warm and petite compared to his larger and rougher hand. He squeezed her hand back tightly. "So, how's work? I heard you've been promoted from pediatrician to surgeon- which sounds like quite a stretch,"

"Good, I guess. Nice co-workers and stuff- performed my first surgery on someone about a week ago. It was vexing." Shintarou commented simply, shuddering at the memory of staring into someone's insides. "How about you with the whole kindergarten work?"

"Ah, the children are really adorable! They always make me do this hero act thing which is really fun," Ayano laughed, before going back to stare out into the moving scenery. Her head tilted slightly so that she'd just lean slightly onto Shintarou's shoulder. Shintarou couldn't help but think about how cute she was, and also couldn't believe that he'd actually managed to get into a relationship with his long time crush. It'd been a good life, he thought happily.

The train came to a sudden bumpy stop, causing everyone on board to stumble a bit to the right. Shintarou felt someone knocking hard against him, her pale hands awkwardly grabbing onto his arm for stability. "A-Ah, sorry," She said, in a rather low voice.

Shintarou's heart pounded, abnormally, when he managed to get a good look of that person. A tall young lady (younger than me, perhaps, Shintarou thought) with long, flowing dark green hair, her ears constantly blasted with music through her earphones. A pretty face, but somehow she could be easily mistaken for a teenage guy. Hands jammed deep in her jean pockets, and a dark purple jacket that was a strange mix of a hoodie and sweater, sleeves rolled up to the elbows. Where had I seen her before? He asked himself.

"Ah, we already arrived," Ayano said, pulling Shintarou back to reality, who realized that the mysterious green haired lady was gone. "Is something wrong? It look's like you've seen a ghost."

"Oh... uh, no. Let's go, I'll walk you to your workplace then, since its on the way to the hospital." Shintarou said quickly, following the crowd out of the train, with Ayano walking alongside him.

"Are you really okay?" Ayano asked again, her voice full of concern.

"No... It's nothing, honestly." But Shintarou could only look away, with his mind somewhere else in the world.

First chapter done!

This is probably going to be 3 chapters, at least. I think. Probably won't even go over 5. Ah, also because of the nature of this AU, some pairings aren't necessarily going to stay "the same" (the same can be however you interpret it to be ww)

Maybe someone has done this before www

Anyways, thank you for reading up to this point! wwwwww
