A/N: Guys I would really appreciate some sort of review. It lightens up my day. Also I've tried to implement humour into this because anime said so. ENJOY!
Tomoko Akimoto woke that morning feeling really groggy. He looked outside of his window; no-one was out on the street.
He looked up at his digital watch:
8:50
"WHAT THE FU-!"
He smashed his head on the bed in instant panic.
He was drowning. Drowning in an ocean of school detention and a massive digital watch was laughing at him. Why? Why him? Why had he been doomed to wake up late, today? Of all things! If only-
"Hahaha!"
He was soon interrupted by a voice that made his eardrums explode.
Oh well, it's not like I needed to keep my eardrums. Not where I'm going.
He knew who the owner of that laugh was. The one and only perfectly annoying sister of his.
Shana.
When he said perfectly annoying, he meant it. If annoying your older brother was a martial arts of a kind, Shana would undoubtedly be an undefeated master.
"Wow! I didn't think I would get such a great reaction out of you!"
"What did you do this time?" said Tomoko through gritted and an obvious vein on his forehead throbbing. (Well, not so obvious because of his hair.)
"Oh me," she said in an annoyingly innocent voice, "I only switched the clock two hours ahead just to get a reaction out of you. ('aka' the best prank ever)."
It must've have been the fact that he was still tired as heck that Tomoko's response was only a single, yet large – sweat drop…
And yet it was no surprise that Shana had played this extremely cruel trick on him. I mean it's not like she did it every day without fail.
It was just so unfair.
As far as Tomoko knew, any sixteen-year-old didn't go through as much torture as he did this early in the morning.
"Sorry Tommy," Shana taunted grinning at the nickname she would always give Tomoko.
Oh well, Tomoko knew it would be yet another boring day in his very boring life. He dreamt about something really interesting happening in his life. If only a radioactive spider could bite him or something along the lines of that…
He wouldn't admit it but his lifelong dream was to obtain superpowers. In any way possible. He would even kill – maybe not! He had definitely heard rumours about superheroes sixty years ago. It seemed to Tomoko that some people were having a laugh and deciding to spread such a rumour anyway. It all seemed like Superheroes didn't really exist.
Right?
It could have been a blessing from God but…
As Tomoko left those doors his adventure as a superhero would soon begin.
He watched his sister disappear into the distance. He was forever grateful that Shana went to a different school than him. It almost made his life bearable.
Almost.
It was then he stumbled on the tiny little box that would change his life forever.
"Huh, what's this?" he mumbled picking up the box and opening it.
Hmm, nice ring. Why's it got a paw on it though?
He wore the ring and it latched onto him like his sister when she's scared at night. Except the ring wasn't literally mowing his arm off.
Well, instead it proceeded to blind him.
A bright light smashed his eyes like a hammer.
I guess I won't be needing my sight either.
Bloodshot eyes and throbbing ears were definitely what he needed to wake him up that morning. Would it have been a stretch to say that fate did its job too well today?
He heard groaning but it wasn't his, for once.
Instead he looked down to see a huge mystical creature thingy that resembled a cat.
"Ooh, I'm going to die! I need cheese!"
Cheese.
If he recalled correctly wasn't it mice rather than cats that loved cheese or was he mistaken.
It might have been the fact that he always used to watch Tom and Jerry as a kid. That didn't matter though. He had to help this cat thing.
"Who are you?" he asked getting down on one knee.
"Oh you must be the new Cat Noir." He jumped up happily. Plagg knew his days of cheese deprivation were O-V-E-R!
"The new whaaa-?"
Wait a minute! Wasn't this cat just sprawled on the floor as if he was about to die. What an exaggerator!
"Oi, quit it! Your thoughts are my thoughts now. So that means that you can't insult me!"
Tomoko was looking like a confused rabbit in a desert right now.
"Okay this is going to take an hour and a bit more to explain," Plagg said he ears flopping already.
Tomoko looked up at the flying cat.
"Don't worry," said Tomoko sympathetically as he took them to a nearby bench, "Quite frankly, I have a lot of time on my hands."
"Ok where shall I start?"
One hour later…
Despite the fact it wasn't even school time yet and he had previously been wide awake, Tomoko's were already betraying him in more ways than one. He slapped himself for the twelfth time that morning to keep himself awake. He was practically asleep though. There wasn't anything than a lecture. Especially by someone who floated in the air meaning that you felt nauseous half the time.
Half the time Plagg had been talking about cheese.
Still it didn't stop him from prancing around like a drunkard when he heard the word 'superpowers' that morning.
(A lot of people walking past, looked at him as if he was crazy. Maybe he already was.)
After his celebration, Plagg droned on some more and then…
"Ugh.. I can't talk anymore I need something to eat!" said Plagg.
"Cheese?"
It seemed like a straight-forward suggestion, but hey, when you had a magical creature who talked non-stop about cheese, you have to make some assumptions.
"Definitely! Camembert if possible."
It must have been coincidence that he had packed a four cheese sandwiches that morning for lunch.
Camembert cheese.
"You're in luck,"
As he handed Plagg the slices of cheese from his sandwiches and he swallowed each whole he wondered how much a kwami can actually eat.
As they got up and finally made their way to school Tomoko wondered who Ladybug was. Plagg had mentioned her in his lecture. She sounded quite awesome.
She might even be a good sidekick to the (soon to be) notorious Cat Noir!
"Why didn't you just appear when there was a butterfly-thingy actually attacking? Why now?"
"Oh yeah, forgot to tell you. The last Cat Noir was so excited that he didn't adjust to his powers and nearly got killed by his first akuma – twice!
Oh what a bummer!
"Can't you wait even a little, eager-macbeaver. Don't forget I share your thoughts with you so I know when you are having even slight grudges against me. I can also tell when you are thinking dirty th-"
"Okay, okay. I get it, Plagg"
Tomoko quickly stuffed Plagg into his bag, who was ranting on about how Japan was so hot and so on.
He turned round the corner only to bump into someone and then topple over on top of them. He looked down to see he had landed a blonde girl.
They exchanged blushes.
He knew from being a shut-in anime/manga neet, what was going to happen next. Trust me when I say it wasn't a good thing.
So it wasn't surprising when the blonde girl suddenly started screaming..
"YOU PERVERT!"
An almighty pain struck his balls and he knew it was time to say goodbye to those future children. He was sent into to the sky and he looked down to see what looked like a tiny school and small people within it. This was maybe because he was a good thousand metres above the ground right about now.
From Plagg's perspective, you might say that Tomoko looked liked he had turned into a twinkling star in seconds, practically disappearing into the blue sky.
That was a funny sight, to say the least.
It wasn't long before Tomoko started falling and he was obviously very scared.
He started screaming frantically and wailing like an elephant. Then he heard Plagg's voice in his head.
I guess it's time to say bye now, stated Plagg telepathically.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? ALSO HOW THE HELL ARE YOU EVEN COMMUNICATING WITH FROM DOWN THERE?
Chances are that you probably won't survive this fall, but, you might make it out of this alive if somehow you're lucky. As for me communicating with you from a distance, well, remember when I said that we shared thoughts? It also means that I can tell what you're going to say even before you say it. Also one hint of advice; try landing on your feet if you wanna have even a slightest chance of surviving this fall, but still it probably won't work, Bye.
Well explains some things, mused Tomoko. BUT SERIOUSLY, LAND ON MY FEET? IF I LAND ON MY FEET, I WON'T HAVE ANY FEET ANYMORE!
Tomoko decided that Plagg was delusional. He should actually try landing on his back, but knowing his (bad) luck (that Plagg gave to him), it may not make a difference.
Then, as he approached the ground he saw his saviour. His tiny (getting seemingly bigger), prickly saviour.
And, no, it wasn't Plagg's stubby hands waiting catch him!
It was a thorn bush.
It would certainly be hell to land in that, but what choice did he have?
He swam in the air towards the direction of the bush. He was now directly above the bush but unfortunately there was a fence beside it. A sharp fence, at that.
Tomoko got ready for impact and he closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, he was looked down at the thorn bush from 2 metres above. Had he survived?
He looked up to see that his clothes had been caught on the point of the fence.
He turned completely white and essentially dropped to the ground paralysed with shock. (this was when his clothes tore).
I could have d-died just then,
It was then that it occured that no girl - no, human being, should have that sort of power. He literally saw his entire town just a minute ago. He was a thousand metres in the air, a minute ago. All because she kicked him (in his groin).
People who saw the incident too practically vanished altogether. All the boys probably gone faster than the girls for (very) obvious reason.
As Tomoko picked his bag and a laughing Plagg. He knew it would be one of those days…
It was worth it, though, for once!
Sort of.
