Thinking of the World and Others

The ship Musashi flies over the hostile Sagarmatha Corridor. Meanwhile at a manor house, a young girl sleeping on a couch starting walking up and looking at the clock despite her lazy eyes, seeing the time she panic running around in her home getting dress. She runs through the neighbors hurrying to her part-time job hopefully that she wouldn't be late, as she ran a voice singing at Okutama Cemetery while a young high-spirited boy standing at the front of his school starting his day.

The girl is Masazumi Honda: Vice-President of Musashi Academy Student Council and onto becoming an aspiring politician though questions of most what's going on around her, including her classmate and soupier Tori Aoi. Also none of her classmates knows she's pretending to be a male student because of the physical change to her body years ago.

Masazumi: This morning was the same as any other, nothing particularly stood out, everything looked like usual. I thought days like this last forever but they shatter as they draw to an end. When the time comes, I…

Later after the elementary school Masazumi work at, she collapse to the ground as she was spotted by a silver-haired girl water some rock creatures. She went to the store to call out her boss.

"Master, Masazumi Honda appears to be on the brink of starving death."

As the clock stroke 10:00 am, Musashi announced that the ship will enter stealth mode for a while.

"Practically starving to death is serious, Masazumi. You need to find a better job so you can eat properly." The Shop Owner of Blue Thunder advised.

Masazumi drank a glass of water. "I'll try to watch myself." She said.

"So, got any Student Council work later today?" The shop owner asked while picking up some dishes Masazumi ate from.

"Yes, as vice-president I'm to accompany President Sakai to Mikawa's checkpoint, though I'm visiting my mother's grave first. We're originally from Mikawa, so it's sentimental." Masazumi informed. "Also, I apologize for constantly inconviencing you, someday I'll become a good politician and then…" She apologized but was interrupted by the shop owner's chuckle.

"Don't worry about it." She said walking to the kitchen getting something. "You want to become a provisional councilor right, then you became vice-president instead of president, why?" She asked.

"Become Chancellor Aoi was in the candidacy. I been for 1 year now but he was born here a long time ago, with him having a better understanding of everyone… though one more guy I thought he would be president." Masazumi signed.

"And that would be Jotaro Kujo, right?" The shop owner asked knowing who Masazumi is talking about.

"Guess I'm not the only thinking that Jotaro could be a better president, but surprise he didn't even tried to run and just lets Tori take the position." Masazumi said, remembering the she met Jotaro and his classmates seeing him as a man people would follow but he said he didn't care about politician and he wants to live his own life.

"Yes even Tori wanted him to be president and accepted Jotaro's decision; I swear that boy's always been such a goof ball." The shop owner said.

Coming out of the kitchen she handed a paper bag to Masazumi. "Here take this, I use to serve this Tori and the neighborhood kids."

"So he ate this?" Masazumi asked.

"Yep! Tori and Jotaro use to come here but stop a decade ago, clear up until last year. But a little while back I took in a sweet little lost automated doll with amnesia that had a citizen ID, that's when he started coming by every morning. You know I think that he is simply enchanted by my P-01S." The owner explained.

"He's into P-01s?" Masazumi gasped then signed. "What a little pervert…"

"Are you worried? And all this time I thought you couldn't stand the sight of him." The owner said.

"I wouldn't say I hate him…"

"If you want to get closer to everyone in an emotional way, just look into Remorse Way." The owner suggested.

"Remorse Way?" Masazumi wondered.

"I promise you, if you go there you'll find the truth that's eluding you."

"Is it related to that monument?" Masazumi asked.

"Yep, keep pursuing the truth." The owner said handing the bag to Masazumi.

"Remorse Way…"

(10:43 AM, Musashi Academy: Class 3-Plum)

"In Far East History, we'll cover the Harmonic Unification War, which caused the Divine States to fall under provisional rule." Makiko explained, turning to Suzu. "Suzu, explain as much as you can about it for me."

"Will a review be okay?" Suzu asked.

"It sure will, I want you to teach class for me. Good luck!" Makiko said.

"Uh, okay…" Suzu summoned a Sign Frame to show a picture and began her explanation. "A… A long time ago, the Divine States in the real world, and their copy, the Harmonic Divine States, existed on separate planes. The Divine States' citizens lived in the original one. People from other countries lived in the Harmonic Divine States found on another world. I think they got along…"

"You're doing good." Makiko encouraged.

"Hey, Bell, loosen up. If you goof up, Jotaro and I will simply let her punch either of us for ya that's all. We'll be fine, come on, neither of us can't die today until I hit the first branch in this erotic game." Tori said holding a survey.

"Yare yare daze." Jotaro signed, thought Tori sounded cool but not truly.

"Hey now, you can stop acting like you're about to die!" Makiko scolded. "And why in the world are you filling out that survey?!" She asked.

"Oh come on, Teach, I just want the special membership bonus, so bug off!" Tori talked back.

"Pipe down Tori, I'm trying to work here." Shirojiro said.

"But Shiro, wait a sec, I'm pretty sure that we're right in the middle of class." Heidi said but Shiro wasn't listening as he continues to look at some list.

The other classmates were also doing their own things despite being in class. Malga and Margot are working on some manga scripts. Toussaint is working on his manuscript for a story. Suzu felt a little nervous.

"Asama, help her out." Makiko called out to Asama.

"Okay, Suzu, may I read your review for you?" Asama asked to help her.

"S-sure please do." Suzu said.

As Suzu types her review and Asama reading, Jotaro has been thinking of the dream he had and the review together. It's like he was seeing the past of what happen during a war and the destruction it had cause to many, many lives. Suddenly a thought came to Jotaro as he remembers something important.

"Hey, so guys, I wanted to let you know, I'm holding a pre-pop-the-question party tonight, gather up at the usual spot…" Tori announced but got interrupted by Shirojiro.

"Don't go choosing a place that costs money."

"Well right here works! Let's play a game of dare like last year!" Tori suggested.

"But Tori, I don't think that's going to be such a good idea. The number of spooks have increase exponentially since last year." Asama pointed out.

"Well then we can just exorcise all those pesky ghosts tonight! It's our duty as part of the Student Council." Tori said.

"I was gonna handle that little dilemma, so I sign up for night duty tonight." Makiko said.

"So it settles; we're busting ghosts!" Tori said, deciding to take his teacher's job. "Jotaro, you in bud…" Tori stop speaking to see an empty chair next to him.

The whole class gasps, expect for Makiko as she sing and Kimi giggles a little.

"Oh, it seems my darling-sexy Jojo has given himself a early leave, what a man!" Kimi said blush a little and smile grinning.

"Damn it, he could've told us that he was leaving, he just has to be the delinquent." Makiko frowned with tiny blush on her cheeks. Then she remembers it was punishment time for Tori.

Meanwhile in the hallways of the school, one old-looking man is escorting a young boy through the hallway to Class 3-Plum. The man is Yoshinao: current King of Musashi and Vice-President of Musashi Academy, and the young boy is the new transfer student Azuma though he has a secret background.

"Hello your highness, escorting a new student I see." Jotaro said walking up to the two.

"Jotaro, it's been a while, the people of Musashi are cold they're not welcoming Azuma's glories return, even though he's the Emperor's son." Yoshinao winced a bit.

"No, the Testament Union said not to make a big fuss." Azuma stated.

"So you've decided to live among the lower life than the higher ups, seems you've doing things your own way." Jotaro said. When Jotaro was a little kid, he met Azuma when he was visiting Musashi with his father, the two became friends a while and played together. They kept in touch through emails or a few video chats.

"Yeah, I wanted to see what others are like outside the castle and experience them so I can properly rule when I become King." Azuma exclaimed Jotaro nodded in agreement that he'll be a fine ruler one day.

Suddenly they heard shouting from the classroom like something is happen. Jotaro knows that too well and have to quickly get the King and Azuma away from the classroom.

"I'll escort Azuma from your Highness, why don't you go back home and rest for a while." Jotaro suggested, Yoshinao was confuse but decided to goes with Jotaro's idea and walk home.

"Aumza, you wait at the Teacher's lunge while I have a talk with the class." Jotaro said to his childhood friend, walking to the classroom and closing the door.

"Hey Jotaro, what's up… huh hey what are you…" Tori screamed like he was being pulverize as the sounds of 'ORAs' were heard and crashing sounds.

"Well that was… what the Jotaro why are you… hey, hey, HEY…" Makiko screamed as well, sounds of clashing metals and panics in the room. Azuma felt a little fear as a sweat drop form on the back of his head.

"He hasn't change at all." Azuma said with a nervous smile, remembering about Jotaro's personality.

(Graveyard)

Masazumi walks up the stairs to the graveyard to her surprise to find P-01s there with some rock creatures.

"P-01s, what brought you here?" Masazumi asked. "I'm surprise to see you here, straighten up the place?"

"Judge, it is one of my daily chores." P-01s answered, she feed some grass to some rock creatures also known as Black algae.

"We busted? We okay? All good?" They asked.

"You aren't busted. Everything is fine. Our operation is proceeding perfectly." P-01s said.

"(They're so busted.)" Masazumi thought.

"So Masazumi, I see you take care of this grave. That's very good of you." P-01s said.

"Thank you; yeah it's my mother's. We buried a keepsake since we don't have her body, but I guess an automated doll wouldn't understand." Masazumi said. "I mean it's not like you have a mother or born with a soul."

"Judge, but quite bluntly you love your mother, don't you? I mean loving a parent is only natural, yes?" P-01s asked.

Masazumi didn't replied as she pull out some grass from the grave then P-01s began singing a song very familiar to Masazumi. Remembering how her mother uses to sing to her as a little girl as she sings a little as well.

"What is it? Is something the matter, Masazumi?" P-01s asked worry.

Silence fell on them for a moment until Masazumi spoke. "No nothing at all. I'm originally from Mikawa."

"Mikawa's sovereign, the Lord Matsudaira, needs two people from the Honda family under him." Masazumi began explaining the branches of her family. Her father failed to inherit the Masanobu name and trying to get her to take the name Masazumi by undergoing a sex change but she and go completely change, the Matsudaira family suddenly dismissed their vassals, thus the family were no longer needed, intrusting everything to automated dolls. Her father fled to Musashi as she and her mother remain in Mikawa until her mother was spirited away, becoming a 'Lost Noble'.

"I don't understand why… why I've had to relinquish so much. Talk about pathetic." Masazumi said.

"Judge, you have just resolved one of my questions regarding you and your issue." P-01s said.

"What's that?" Masazumi asked.

"Well it seems to me that you haven't been wearing a boy's uniform because you wanted to, surprisingly enough." She answered.

The Black algae's yelled 'cross dress' thinking Masazumi likes to cross dress but before she can protest. The ship has exit out of stealth mode.

"Seems we have left Stealth Mode." P-01s said.

"So, that means we're almost there." Masazumi said, referring to a place where Musashi is going.

"I wonder how much the place changed over the years? I do hope Futayo Honda is okay." Masazumi mumbled.

They see a ship flying pass Musashi, Masazumi recognize it as Lord Motonobu ship.

"Hi there, do you remember me?" A voice called out. The man is revealing to be none other than Lord Motonobu Matsudaira. "Once again, I'm the Lord of Mikawa, Motonbu Matsudaira, I like to put on a fun show for you this year. I've prepared some pretty impressive fireworks." He announced. "Alright kids, that's all the time we have for class today." Lord Motonobu signed off.

"He'll never change." Masazumi said knowing Lord Moton0bu being playful sometime. Turn to P-01s waving her hand for some reason.

"Will you stop it? You're acting like a stupid tourist." Masazumi said.

"Someone was waving at us from the window at the bottom of the ship. I waved back when the person started smiling at us." She said.

Masazumi was confused of P-01s statement. The ship landed at a special dork.

(Musashi Academy's front yard)

"Today's joint Student Council and Chancellor Meeting's theme is: Let's all pitch in together and help Aoi's big confession go well." Toussaint declared. "Aoi, you may proceed."

"Tenzo, how do you confess your feelings? Haven't you done it a bunch to all your little honeys?" Tori asked for advice. Tenzo jump in shock and feeling insulted.

"First off, you just insulted me, didn't you? Second why not asks Jotaro, he's dating your sister?" Tenzo asked. Jotaro huff as Kimi clinch to him more, Jotaro didn't feel like talking about the confession he and Kimi did and she would only made things awkward and embarrass.

"Just answer the question." Tori demanded.

Tenzo signs in defeat. "For starters, how about the letter tactic?"

"Alright, what are those for?" Tori wondered.

"It's simple; itemize everything you want to tell her beforehand. Then give her that letter rather than outright telling her." Tenzo explained.

"So I just gotta write down why I fell for her? That seems easy enough." Tori said.

"Foolish brother it quite easy, you just have to simply pour your heart out, citing all her good points like what Jotaro did to me." Kimi suggested.

"Hey!" Jotaro yelled of Kimi's statement.

"Huh, her good points, huh?" Tori wondered, swigging the pen given to him by Tenzo along with a notebook. "I wonder if I can put it into words…" Tori ask himself.

Tori began writing down like how beautiful Horizon face is though can't describe it, even writing of how he can see her panties, the ecpicness of curve going from her waist to her butt.

"Well, you're spouting it out easily enough!" Tenzo shocked.

"Wait, wait!" Urquiaga called out. "That list is missing something of dire importance for Tori."

"Your next words are, 'You're a boobs-man, yet you've failed to mention boobs'." Jotaro performing his 'next line' trick.

"You're a boobs-man, yet you've failed to mention boobs." Urquiaga said. The whole class shocked gasps that Tori forgot to mention boobs.

The class gossip that Tori talks about boobs everyday but forgot to write something like that down, then Tori writes down that he can't say until he gropes them. He thought it was poetic but the class groan.

"Foolish brother, you don't take boobies lightly, do you?" Kimi asks her pervert brother.

"Yeah! Believe it or not, I take 'em super seriously!" Tori replied.

"If you can't trust your eyes to judge them, why don't you give this a try?" Kimi asked.

"Try? Try what?" Tori asked, wondering his sister has in store.

"You should ask someone with similar boobies to let you grope hers." Kimi suggested as the class gasped and Jotaro just sign knowing Kimi would think of something like that.

"Sis, you're awesome! You're stupid even though you're smart!" Tori said.

"(That'll only encourage her even more.)" Jotaro thought.

"Why is everyone being so lazing around this place?" Nato said coming out of the school with Sakai.

"Yo! I heard the news, Tori." Sakai said.

"About what?" Tori asked.

"About asking a girl out, who could drive you to commit such a dangerous act?" Sasaki asked.

"Horizon of course." Tori said.

"Her, eh. Do you think that's such a good idea?" Sakai asked.

"Wouldn't you agree?" Tori asked back.

"Yeah, but there's a chance she just resembles her." Sakai pointed out.

"I know that! It's cool with me if she isn't actually Horizon. I maybe damn incapable but I hope she'll stay by my side for all eternity." Tori stated.

"He decided that this morning, about how she died around 10 years ago and now wating to confess his feelings." Jotaro said to his adopted father.

"Like how you did with Kimi?" Sakai asked. Jotaro blush a bit as Kimi clinch to him again. "Well, good luck!" He said to Tori.

"I'm visiting Mikawa with Masazumi. Need me to pass on a message?" Sakai asked if there's anything to say to Masazumi.

"We're gonna start partying here at eight, so if you don't mind, could you ask if she's coming or not?" Tori asked wondering if Masazumi is coming. Sakai wave that he'll tell Masazumi as he walks away but quickly turns around.

"Oh Jotaro, your mother said she'll be joining us for Dinner tonight!" Sakai said.

"Tell her I'll be here late with my friends, don't wait up on me." Jotaro said. Sakai nodded and walks again.

"By the way, I just remembered you have an important dilemma to deal with." Kimi reminded her brother.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Tori said.

"Use those." Kimi suggested, looking at Nate. The siblings nodded in agreement and Jotaro knew this wasn't going to end well.

"Mitotsudaira!" Kimi called out.

"Yes?" Nato replied wondering what could important.

"You're a perfect match for resolving a problem plaguing Tori." Kimi said.

"What's wrong with him? Is it something very important to him?" Nato asked.

"It the most important thing in my brother's life! It's a serious matter pertaining his proposal tomorrow." Kimi stated.

"You mean the Chancellor popping the question?" Nato asked.

"Yes, that's right." Kimi answered "I guess it's beneath a member of the Mitotsudaira family, who branch off the Matsudaira family…"

"You just hold on a minute!" Nato cut off Kimi's sentences.

"(Using her pride as bait to her brings her in, that's Kimi for ya.)" Jotaro thought knowing his girlfriend is good with her silver-tongue.

"It's not like I don't know of your commoner ways, I have been around the block you know." Nato said. Unnoticing that Kimi did a 'gotcha' sign that she has Nato in.

"You'll never find a knight unwilling to help a commoner and I'll let you know that, I, Nato Mitotsudaira, am happy to stick out my chest for you!" Nato proclaimed unknowing of what she gotten herself into.

The whole class gasps of what Nato just said.

"For real?" Tori asked.

"Yare yare daze, she took the bait." Jotaro said.

"Why are you so surprised?" Nato ask her classmates.

Tori walk up to Nato. "Are you sure about this?" Tori seriously asked.

"Yes, I shall work my bosom best to help you for the big event. I won't let you down." Nato said.

"Very well, I won't hold back." Tori said. He grabs Nato breasts giving her a gasping shock of the sudden action. "Please be as quite as possible?" He asked.

Tori continue to feel Nato's breasts for a few moments then let's go.

"Foolish brother?" Kimi wondered.

"Well, h-how was it, Sir Tori?" Tenzo asked.

Tori turn around to the others with a big smile and a thumb up with a shout. "She was braless!"

The whole class 'oh' and shocked.

"I owe you a big one Nato, I'll be okay now. Tori thank Nato, then quickly notices her shaking.

"I dare say otherwise, you idiot!" Nato yelled in anger as she backhanded Tori so hard he rolled up the stairs, almost smashing into Jotaro but he was lifted up by Star Platinum, and Tori slams to the school next to the clock.

"I swear, I hope she turns you down tomorrow!" Nato said before leaving.

(Highway to Kakamigahara Checkpoint No.2, Mikawa)

Sakai and Masazumi seeing people bringing some things to Musashi but any goods, then they spotted a ship.

"Isn't that?" Masazumi winder if that is what she thinks it is.

"The Jormungandr-level galley, Eikoumaru, belongs to the Pope President Innocentius who's affiliated with the K.P.A. Italia. Supposedly, the Pope President came to negotiate, developing the Armor of Deadly Sins." Sakai mentioned.

"The Armor of Deadly Sins…" Masazumi knows that quite well. "They control the part of the world's power balance. Each of the eight armors is capable of flattening entire cities. The armors' motifs are based upon eight concepts taken from the Seven Deadly Sins."

The two made it the place.

"Thanks again, you can go and play now." Sakai said to an automated doll.

"Excuse me." Masazumi called out to Sakai as he turns around.

"I was thinking about investigating Remorse Way when I got back home today." Masazumi said. Sakai laughed a bit.

"Good Idea!" Sakai said confusing Masazumi. "You should pursue the truth. I hope learning about Remorse Way will lead you to a new path in life and enlighten you." Sakai said before walking off to see his old friends.

"A new path in life…" Masazumi wondered.

Masazumi walks back through the highway doing some thinking.

"(The age limit for students in the Far East is 18. In a world where all politics and military affairs are determined by student contention in the Academy, you're nothing more than a bureaucrat, even if you make the Council after graduation.)"

Sakai met up with two of his old friends with a young girl and boy with them. The boy with dark, short, and unkempt hair and bangs shooting outwards in spikes, he seems a little familiar as his face resembles someone.

"(What's the point in trying to become a politician in a world like that? If I lack the desire to change this world, how will pursuing the truth help?)"

Back at the school, Tori fell off the school back to his friends hurtfully.

"(If only he were more willing to relinquish things like I have…)"

(Central Unification Reactor in Shin-Nagoya Castle)

"How will things proceed?" Motonobu asked. "I'm eager for tonight's fireworks." He said. He has a plan that involving tonight that will shake the world by storm.

KO third chapter is done. Hope you all enjoy it and some things I did for the story. Jotaro and Azuma are childhood friends and let's just say that Azuma show you that he won't back down from a fight.

The boy who appears with Futayo, I'm sure you can guess who that is and will see him in action. In the next chapter will explain of their relationship a little and some deep connection between him and Sakai. Also some major ghost busting by our students and we all know Jotaro doesn't hold back.

KO comment, favorite, and follow through this story to see how it ends and how more awesome it's gonna be.
