Disclaimer: I do not own Assassination Classroom
Chapter 1
In the illustrious school of Kunugigaoka Junior High School in the classroom of 3-E the school day began and the class of 3-E will never be the same.
The class was sitting in the class waiting for their teacher to turn up each student were nervous as beads of sweat rolled down their faces and their hearts racing. The door opened and the teacher placed the attendance sheet on the desk.
"We'll start homeroom now. Whoever is on day duty issue your commands!" The teacher said. The teacher had an appearance of an octopus, three meters tall and has a large bulbous head with a large smile and small beady eyes. He uses two feelers as arms with two fingers each and uses the rest of his tentacles to walk with. He was wearing a black academic dress, a small black square academic cap with a yellow tassel and a black tie with a yellow crescent-shaped moon on it.
"S-STAND!" The voice of Nagisa Shiota a petite framed boy with light blue hair and azure eyes said as the class stood up. "AT ATTENTION!"
The class aim their guns at their teacher who still had his smile on his face as the class started to shoot at him. However the octopus teacher easily dodged each and every bullet being fired at him.
"Good morning" The teacher said "Alright seeing as you're still firing I will take attendance. Isogai-kun"
"H-"
"I'm sorry but as we're in the midst of gunfire could you speak up?" the teacher said.
"HERE!" Isogai Yuma a boy with spiked black hair with two small hair antennae at the top and pale gold eyes shouted.
"Okano-kun"
"HERE!" Hinata Okano a girl with short brown hair and light purple eyes also shouted.
"Kataoka-kun"
"HERE!" Megu Kataoka a girl with long grey hair kept in a ponytail with a fringe of shorter hair over her forehead said.
The teacher kept checking off the names till the last name appeared. "Nagataka-kun"
"Here" Nagataka replied.
Nagataka had smooth black hair going down to his neck and black eyes. He wore the regular male school uniform but without the jacket or the tie. One notable feature was that he was in a wheelchair.
He sat next to an empty desk at the back of the class and had no desk of his own as his wheelchair had a rectangle tray that was attached and can be pulled from the right side of his wheelchair and placing it back in a single motion. He was the only one who didn't fire his gun at the teacher and the only one who kept his cool when he entered.
Nagataka was his only name, no last name what so ever.
"No absences… how wonderful! Sensei is very pleased" The teacher said. "What a shame. There were no direct hits today either. Tactics which rely on numbers lack individual thought. Your gaze, the direction of your guns, the movement of your fingers. Each and every one is far too simplistic… except you Nagataka"
The octopus teacher looked the student in the wheelchair and looked at him "You didn't even fire your gun why is that?"
Nagataka gave a kind smile at the teacher. "It was pointless anyway sensei, you already showed you speed off already when Karasuma-san tried to kill you. Besides we have plenty of chances to kill you sensei"
The teacher looked at Nagataka before his face gained green stripes "That is if you ever kill me that is" The teacher looked back at the other students "Devise more of a plan, or else you won't be able to kill me with my maximum speed of mach 20"
"You seriously dodged all of them thought sensei!" Hiroto Maehara a boy with wavy mid-short orange-brown hair and orange-brown hair said holding up one of the Anti-Sensei Pellets "However you look at it, these are just BB gun pellets aren't they? Even if they hit you'll just endure it, won't you?!" He said as the class agreed.
"They don't even know what they are holding" Nagataka thought with an impassive look on his face as he watched their teacher grab the gun and shot his arm off. "Now they understand"
The class was shocked as they watched the wriggling arm on the ground as their teacher regrew his arm while explaining how the bullets were developed before instructing the class to clean up the guns and pellets.
A While Later
The octopus was teaching the class and asked one of his students a question. "Now here's a question Kimura-kun, among these a tentacles which is the odd one out?"
"Uh, the blue one?" Masayoshi Kimura a boy with black hair and black eyes answered unsurely.
"Correct! Only the 'who' from the blue tentacle's sentence is a relative term" the teacher said as his face turned orange with a red circle appeared.
Kaede Kayano a girl with a short stature, a little frame hazel eyes and green hair which is fashioned in unique cat ear-styled pigtails. She got the attention of Nagisa and pointed to something out the window.
The crescent moon.
*BANG*
A bullet was catch by the octopus. "Nakamura-san. I believe I told you that assassinations must not interfere with your studies" he said as his face was red.
"Sorry" Rio Nakamura a girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes said rubbing the back of her head.
"As punishment you will stand in the back and then attend a class lecture" the teacher pointed to the back.
"Aww" Rio then went to the back of the class. There wasn't much for her to do while standing at the back. She looked at the transfer student, it was weird the same day he transferred was a day before their new teacher started to teach them. He was pretty much a mystery to the whole class.
"Can I help you Nakamura-san?" The mystery student asked the blonde who jumped slightly.
"H-how did you" Rio started before said being cut off by Nagataka.
"How did I know you were looking at me? I felt your eyes" He said as he was still facing the front.
"Felt my eyes?" she asked him "Who can you feel my eyes?"
"The human brain can detect when someone is staring at you. The brain cells find the particular cells fire when someone is staring at you but not when the observer's gaze is averted if only just by a few degrees to the left or right. I would go more into this but I won't" He answered. "Besides since I am in a stationary position a majority of the time I learnt to improve my senses and found a way to use the 'gaze detection' to the fullest"
"What do your Senses have to do with my eyes?"
"That is for another time Nakamura-san" he said as the lessons continued.
Lunch
The bell rang indicating that it was now lunch. "Well that's lunch time everybody. Excuse me while I pop over to China for a quick. You have my cell number, any killers especially trigger happy today are welcome to hit me up" the teacher said as he flew off at Mach 20.
The class started talking about how good his teaching skills are but then dismissed it as they were Class E.
"Giving up because you're in class E? Pathetic, an assassin never gives up till the target is either dead or the assassin themselves is dead" Nagataka thought as he left the building.
Nagataka rolled outside and just looked at the sky, cloud watching sure was peaceful and it helped him with his thoughts. Looking down he saw Ryoma Terasaka a boy with brown hair which is dyed blonde around the side. Takuya Muramatsu another male student with blonde hair and Taisei Yoshida also another male student with black hair.
He just saw the three walk away from Nagisa after giving something then their sensei arrived with a missile. He got closer to hear the conversation.
"The fat that I'm targeted by everyone is proof that I'm powerful, after all" The teacher said "Well 5th period classes are starting"
"Right" Nagisa said "I just can't understand sensei. His being everyone's assassination target, if you look at it another way, it means everyone acknowledges his true power. How could a monster like that who no longer has expectations or caution even understand a human's feelings. I bet I could kill him, I mean this teacher doesn't even see me as a hitman"
"Nagisa" a voice behind him said.
Nagisa jumped into the air as he turned around to see Nagataka. "Nagataka-san!"
Nagataka waved him off "Please drop the suffix, Nagisa"
"O-okay"
"So it is proof that everyone sees him as a target correct?"
Nagisa nodded "Yes, that's what he said"
"But you do remember that I didn't target him" Nagataka said. Nagisa's eyes widened at what Nagataka said.
"B-but you said there were plenty chances to kill him"
"Whoever said that I will be the one to kill him Nagisa" Nagataka looked at Nagisa who looked even more shocked. "Nagisa"
"Yes Nagataka-sa, I mean Nagataka"
Nagataka smiled gently and ruffled his hair. Physically Nagataka was taller than Nagisa if he wasn't in a wheelchair. "Nagisa you will make an amazing assassin"
This caused Nagisa to blush slightly and rubbed the back of his head "T-thanks" he mumbled.
Nagataka looked at the small bag that Ryoma gave Nagisa "Nagisa whatever Ryoma gave you, you should just throw it away"
Nagisa looked at the bag and back at Nagataka "But it could kill sensei"
"It could but what about you Nagisa, do you know how precious a life is? The only life that you should worry about is your own" Nagataka said "You're friends then certain family members you care about and… No one here should experience in taking a life"
"Nagataka…"
"What are we still doing here? We should go before sensei comes"
Nagisa looked at Nagataka heading towards the classroom. Nagataka was without a doubt the most mysterious student in class E, Nagisa couldn't read him and without a doubt Nagisa knew Nagataka was smarter than he looked.
"W-wait up Nagataka!" Nagisa then started to catch up with Nagataka.
Class E
Inside the classroom the octopus gave them the task of writing tanka poems but ending with tentacles.
"Sensei I have a question" Kaede asked with a raised hand.
"Hmm what would that be Kayano-san?" He asked Kaede.
"It's kind of late to be asking this but what name should we use when talking about you it's difficult to identify you outside the other teachers"
"A name huh. I don't really call myself anything in particular. How about all of you come up with one if you don't mind but for now concentrate on the task at hand"
Nagisa stood up and headed towards the octopus with his anti-sensei knife behind his paper.
"Nagisa you fool don't do this" Nagataka whispered and he watched Nagisa continue and sighed. Nagisa pulled and tried to hit him with the knife which the teacher caught it.
"I told you didn't I? To have more of a-"
Nagisa then hugged the octopus with a BB Pellet Grenade around his neck. Ryoma went to press the button and they exploded.
Nagisa opened his eyes to a familiar face. "I see you are awake"
Nagisa looked around to see where he the grenade was detonated. "How why don't I have any injuries on me"
Nagataka pulled up a lasso. "I caught and pulled you with this"
"What about the grenade?"
Nagataka pointed over to the front of the class showing where the explosion occurred. "I shoot the string holding the rope grenade around your neck"
"Thank you again Nagataka"
"You don't need to thank me Nagisa but…"
"Yes Nagataka?"
"Can you please get off my legs please" He asked with a kind smile.
"S-sorry" Nagisa then got off Nagataka's legs and in the front of the room was the skin of their teacher apparently their teacher sheds he skin once a month. It was used to contain the explosion while Nagisa was saved by Nagataka.
Their teacher's skin was pitch black indicating extreme anger scaring the class as he dashed out and grabbed all of their name plates from their houses. Their teacher made a threat of the ones who weren't class E.
"Your friends and family… no, maybe I will eliminate everyone on earth except for you" The air breathing octopus threatened. The only one unfazed was Nagataka.
"What's was wrong from using an irritating killing method on an irritating guy!" Ryoma complained.
"Irritating nonsense? Your idea itself was excellent" the suddenly angry octopoda had an orange face with a red circle before getting a second circle when he looked at Nagisa. "You to Nagisa-kun you get a perfect score for keeping the movement of your body entirely natural until the moment you closed in. You attacked me an a magnificent moment"
The teacher looked over to Nagataka "You as well Nagataka-kun you had saved a comrade when the others had no regard for Nagisa-kun's welfare. You managed to remove Nagisa from the grenade and the explosion even though I could have saved him myself"
Nagisa looked over to Nagataka "Hey Nagataka I want to ask you something"
"Hm what is it?"
"Did you whisper to me?" Nagisa asked while Nagataka looked at him.
"Can you explain?"
"Well when I was walking up sensei I heard your voice but no one else seemed to hear it. Maybe I am a fool"
"Nagisa" Nagataka said with a stern voice causing Nagisa to look at him "You are no way a fool you might have done something foolish by putting yourself at risk but the main point is that you are safe"
"So did you whisper to me?"
"You probably heard me as your conscious instead of your own voice"
"I guess so…" Nagisa said a bit unsure. "Hey Nagataka"
"Yes Nagisa"
"Do you want to be friends?"
"Friends?"
"Yeah friends" Nagisa held up his hand for him to shake.
"I never had a friend before, sure let's be friends" Nagataka shoke his new friends hand.
The teacher gave the students advice on being assassins and Kaede figured out a name for their sensei.
Korosensei.
