"Concentrate your energy, keep your mind focus." Miyako advised helping me with my training. She held my shoulders firmly keeping me in line. I held my eyes closed and my mind a blank. She whispered step by step of my next task. Silence was the key to maintaining the energy flow- all with absolutely no distractions.

The power had flown smoothly within my body like a tingle. I took deep breaths at a time, so that I may not lose my concentration. The feeling to move my body was temping so much that I gritted my teeth. I tried to fight the feeling to move.

With my eyes closed I was able to feel the energy from the palm of my hands. The green aura surrounded my hands to my wrist. The power was like having to heavy weights in my hands. But I intended to push myself further. If my mother's training was harsh then this had to be nothing or so I thought.

"You can stop there." She ordered.

I took a deep breath. "That's a relief I wasn't sure I long I could it like that."

"It's time to prepare for you school as a transfer student. You don't want to be late now. There you will meet other nun trainees." Miyako grinned.

My eyebrow had raise in curiosity. "Other nun trainees?"

She winked keeping me suspense. "You'll find out when you get there. They are really quite colorful people."

I entered high school. I was among the other students blending in with the crowd. It was nothing out of the ordinary. The quietness was then broken by a loud boy and girl my age came bickering. The girl was a nice looking red haired and the boy was typical teenager, but with urges.

"Ikkou, can't you do anything right?" she lectured.

"Give me a break Chitose, I try." He replied weakened from training.

"Well try hard enough, because it isn't enough. You're always causing trouble." She continued to lecture.

"It looks the husband and wife get into another lover's spat." A short blue haired tomboy girl teased.

"Shut up Yuko, I would never fall for pervert like him." She shot back pointing straight at Ikkou.

"Come on, come on. Move your feet or we'll be late. I do not want to ruin my perfect attendance record on the count of you two." One bossy girl in short purple haired and wearing eyeglasses ordered. "Come Hinata, don't be influence by them."

Three other girls follow her to school. One was a blond girl with a gentle smile; the other was tan skinned girl with large eyelashes. The last girl was also purpled hair, but at the same height at as the tomboy, but barely smile and has a pet demon on her shoulders.

As first period ended, I sat on the roof by myself eating lunch. Due to my mother's work busy schedule she always gave me money to buy my lunch from school, but this time was different. Miyako gave me a packed lunch or Bento as Japanese would call it. It mostly consisted of white rice, shrimp, sausage, and eggs.

It was quite a new thing for me considering that I was so used to school lunches, but nonetheless it was delicious.

Ikkou approached me in a subtle manner. "Oh I'm sorry; I did not know somebody was already up here. Do you mind?"

I answered quietly. "It's fine."

It was silent as we munched on our Bento lunch boxes. It was the first time I've seen him around without the girls. I didn't know if he was trying to get away from them, or they could not stand him around.

"Ah that was a very refreshing meal; Sumi is sure a good cook." Ikkou exclaimed stretching.

"I assume she is one of the girls that you live with." I inquired.

"Yep, as well as the other girls, they are quite a handful. I tell you that." He answered.

"Ikkou, where are you Jotoku needs you for some work." Chitose called out.

As she arrived on the roof, I was already alone finishing up my was Chitose, the red haired girl that is always with Ikkou. He was nowhere in sight. She looked left and right, but Ikkou was not there. She held an angry look on her face.

She rubbed the back of her head. "Honestly, hey you have you seen a boy spikey haired come up here recently?"

"No, I haven't." I replied with my eyes down.

She grunted aggressively. "Ugh, where has that no good pervert gone he's always neglecting his work?"

As soon as she was out of sight, no doubt to look for Ikkou, he came up from hiding. Yep, I was covering for him.

Ikkou sighed in relief and nodded his head. "Thanks for covering for me; I really needed a break from the girls."

"Don't mention it. Ikkou Satonaka if I'm not mistaken." I guessed.

"Yep, that's me. How'd you know?" He introduced.

I replied. "It was obvious, and besides you're pretty famous around the school. Not most people live in a house full of girls."

"Well thanks again man, oh and I never got your name."

"It's Satsuki Yashima."

Ikkou left in a hurry as I waved back to him. Even with those girls constant abuse I never sensed any hostility inside him. He lived his life with such earnest. To him they were the more dominant spices. But I still wondered.

As I wondered the school hallway aimlessly I begin to sense a presence. It was the presence of a spirit. However, it was unlike any other, I could not tell if it was good or evil. So I kept eyes open, there no telling when it was going to strike. Even through, most spirits don't usually attack in broad daylight.

But I wasn't the only one aware of this activity; I overheard a discussion in the principal's office.

"I have gathered you all here, because there have been many reoccurring spirits, some of which are unknown to us. They are different, so I need you all to be on guard for whatever comes your way." She announced.

Not if I get there first.

As nightfall came, I stood on lookout like a night owl for I too was concerned about the mysterious spirits. My senses were very sharp as I kept a close eye. Ikkou suddenly rushed dressed in a black kimono ready to excise the spirits as the girls were no behind him.

The mysterious spirit had raise its arm to attack. I quickly shoved Ikkou out of the way. It roared endlessly without a care blasting an overwhelming force that shook the two of us.

"I'll take care of this." Ikkou announced.

"Ikkou wait, something's wrong." I stopped him. "This spirit is not like any other. I don't sense anything within it. No emotion or regret. It's big blank mindless void."

I blasted it with my powers as it was about to strike again. It had a strange black aura around it. Like its soul had been corrupted. I could not sense any human spirit behind it. It swung its claws at us continuously. I felt it grow strong from every blow.

"Ikkou, what's going on?" Chitose asked.

The spirit continued to attack us without mercy or hesitation. We dodged every blow from the corrupted spirit. Even the girls were dumbfounded by its presence, since they usually excise spirits of people that recently passed on.

"It's too strong, what do we do now?" Yuuko grunted.

"Looks like we have no choice. Ikkou…" Sakura called.

Before any flashing could occur, I immediately stepped in and pushed the spirit back with my mental powers. I intented to put it to rest, but a big blue light already appeared as the spirit had already vanished. It seems like Ikkou had beat me to it with his inner abilities awaken by lust. Nonetheless, I still held my hand to my chin in curiosity.

For now we were in the clear or so I thought.

"Yes, looks it's just as you described, the boy possess a remarkable amount of power. I knew corrupting that innocent spirit would bring him out. I have found Arayashiki and he will prove quite useful to us." A man in business suit reported in black BMW car. "Understood, we'll stand by for now and await further instructions.

"So Ikkou, who's your charming friend here, he has very lovely eyes?" Haruka inquired glancing at me with passion.

I scratched my head and looked up. "Well, I certainly did not anticipate this."
