Hyouka Kazakiri
Academy City, the most well known place across the globe hailed as the one and only City of Science. A haven for the many scientists who went there to make a name for themselves. Technology well above any other place in the entire world, with no other country even capable of nearing that sort of tech. Sure Academy City allowed some of their tech to be released, but those were downgraded versions.
Yep, heer in this city scientific pursuit was the goal. The city even expanding this pursuit into many students here the city would produce multiple schools all over the place. There's a reason it was called Academy City, due to all the academies around it.
Thanks to this curriculum many students are quite intelligent compared to those outside the city. With but a few exceptions, the many students could possibly sign up for the best schools outside the city. Even a certain spikey haired boy showed his intelligence during a certain war.
However, no matter how advanced the city is, even the ones governing the city knew they couldn't just make the city pure study and work. I mean, the majority of the city is after all made entirely of students. Students who while smart, are still adolescents who wish to do more than just take tests and do homework. But want to have fun for their time here instead of always studying.
Which is why the city made approval to have some places made for the students sake. From arcades to specialized restaurants, all sorts of fun places for the students to enjoy themselves. All sorts of activities could be seen all around. There were even places made for students if the weather got to hot, like say, the pool.
"Ah. This feels so nice." Relaxing on a beach chair is Touya himself, wearing nothing but red swimming trunks as he laid down on the chair. Having a nice umbrella covering the upper half of his body with his legs revealed to the sun. Though he of course put sunscreen just in case remembering the times he got burnt when he didn't put it on. Oh Touya recalled his time at the beach back with his family.
'...Yeah, that was a disaster.' The trip itself was fun, but then suddenly near the end things took a turn for the worst somehow. .Misha Kruezhev, a girl Touya once thought his son was into, suddenly made an attack. Then he got attacked by Touma's friend, then the house that they had just got built was blown to ashes.
Not a single thing survived.
"...I wonder if Touma gets into crazy things like this here in the city?" He does recall his son complaining he gets chased a lot, mostly by delinquents. Still, better if they are delinquents than espers. After all, his son is a level zero with no power. While he didn't want to sound mean, Touya found it hard to believe his son could handle such espers with actual abilities.
I mean, during his time here he heard some outrageous story an electromaster chases after a poor boy shooting lightning at him. Touya didn't believe it of course. I mean, what kind of cruel person would chase and attack a defenseless person just like that? Though even Touya knew there were some friction between those with powers, and those without it.
'Hopefully Touma isn't getting involved with such espers.' The elder father thought not wanting his son to end up being attacked by some esper. Especially battle crazed ones, that would be a nightmare.
"Touya!" Interrupting his thoughts is Sara, who is in the pool laughing while wearing a yellow one piece swimming suit waving at him, Touya responding the same.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Only to then sigh as he suddenly felt the stares of utter jealousy aimed right at him. Many teenage males who seemed to like the beauty that is Sara Yurino aimed their hatred at him for being associated with her. Sheesh, they really were kids. While Touya did like Sara, it was only as a friend, not as a lover. Yet these men seemed to think pretty badly of him when seeing such a fine girl with an old guy like him.
"Teenagers." Touya muttered as he then grabbed a nice smoothie from the little table near him. Then taking a nice satisfying sip as he watched Sara enjoy herself in the nice pool. Once he finished his drink, he decided to get in the pool and cool himself off. Swim around a little and enjoy the nice water on his skin.
Standing up, he put down his drink and went to the pool ready to have some fun. Deciding to even do a cannonball since it seemed rather fun. So once he got near the pool and around the slightly more deeper end-so there wouldn't be any risk of hitting the concrete bottom-he jumped.
"Gah!" Or he was about to jump when suddenly from behind a person ended up hitting him and ruined his timing. With nothing to hold onto Touya fell down onto the water.
Slap!
...Belly first of course, which has been reported to be rather painful as he felt a sting instantly as he then sunk down into the water. It should also be noted that whoever hit him had also hit the back of his head which had stunned him. Which meant only one thing.
"..Brbrbr…"
"Touya!" That Sara would instantly dive down to save him. Unaware of the person who had knocked him down gasping while some of the boys watching just scoffed. A few even thinking maybe they should have sunk to get the attraction of the girls themselves.
Some men are idiots.
"I'm so sorry sir! I didn't mean to hurt you, I swear." Apologizing for nearly drowning him was a seemingly kind girl bowing her head. Having accidentally bumped into him appearing out of nowhere somehow and hitting him by mistake. While he now had a bump on the back of his head and his stomach and chest becoming a tinge of red from slapping the water, Touya had no anger at all in his eyes.
"Its okay kid, I'm fine." He responded trying to calm the girl down. "Honestly, no need to get upset. I'm completely okay. See." The girl who had been near tears, looked up and saw Touya smiling to subvert her feelings of guilt. Slowly the girl wiped her eyes and just nodded.
"O-okay. If you say so." She said to him with him nodding.
"That's good." He said as he then stared at her not sure what to say. "So, um, why are you...you know." He then began to say but paused, confusing her. Sara decided to finish the sentence and spoke to the girl.
"What my friend is trying to say is, why are you at the pool when your dressed like...that?" The girl then looked down at herself to see what was wrong with her outfit. The appearance of the girl is one ready for school than one for the pool.
The girl has long dark brown hair and golden colored eyes. Most of her hair reaches down towards her lower-back, but a part of it is tied off to the side of her head and left hanging down. She wears large glasses that seem to lower itself further down her face. She wears a school-designated blazer and skirt, and accenting these is a red necktie. Though more notably to the duo and many other females/males, were the large mounds on her chest.
Had Touya been younger, or maybe if this girl was older, he himself might have been caught looking. But instead he wasn't and just thought of one thing. 'This girl will definitely be a beauty in the future.'
Punch!
"Ow!" Touya then grabbed his side where Sara just punched him for no reason. The culprit just averting her gaze from him with a pout. Sara then asked the girl another question ignoring her friends stare.
"So, why are you wearing such an outfit here? Also, the name's Sara, what's yours?" She then held out her hand to shake the girl who looked at it a bit nervously. Then slowly, she grabbed and shook it.
"M-my name's Kazakiri Hyouka." She nervously said. "As for why I'm wearing this-well-I kinda accidentally came here by accident."
"By accident." Sara looked confused. Kazakiri only just giving a nod saying nothing further. It was for the best though, as what was she supposed to say, not the truth all right. Nobody would believe that she was wandering a special 'plane of existence' and just 'materialized' from that special 'District' here with her school clothes.
"In any case, you should probably change into something else." Touya then said getting a stare from the two girls. Their expression shaped into a 'why'.
Then as if to answer, a nearby girl along with a little boy both jumped into the pool cannonball style. With a splash water went everywhere, the droplets hitting many people, not that they minded. After all, they were all wearing swimsuits.
"..." Except for one. When the two hit the water, some of it fell onto Kazakiri soaking her current outfit. Her clothes now sogging wet as drops of water fell off her. She became silent at the mess her outfit became. She then noticed Touya looking away from her, a small tint of red on his cheeks with Sara also looking a bit embarrassed and pointed down to have Kazakiri look at herself.
"Eep!" Her white shirt, having been soaked, had become a bit more transparent than it should be. Revealing what was hidden beneath it, both her breasts and a part of her bra. Turning red, Kazakiri covered herself as Sara just sighed and grabbed hold of her.
"Come on, let's get you changed. The building over there should have clothes for you." Nodding embarrassingly, Kazakiri merely obeyed as she allowed herself to be dragged off. Leaving Touya alone to just sigh and left to get another smoothie.
"There, that's much better." Back out into the pool, Sara came out with a now newly changed Kazakiri which made many people look in awe at the girl. Wearing a one piece like Sara, only brown with the back part removed and her chest being rather prominent in it. Naturally the poor A.I.M girl just felt embarrassed wearing such a thing and moved a bit awkwardly. Feeling anxiouse at the many boys staring at her.
"Come on Kazakiri, you look great." Sara complimented her. "If anything you should be proud to show off such a figure."
"B-b-but it's so embarrassing." Kazakiri retorted back, not liking all the stares. Uh, if only her friend was with her to help make her feel relaxed. She'd definitely get these boys to look away, along with her friend...Who'd probably accidentally make himself look suspicious and get chased off. Shame she could't come though, she heard she was busy with that boy who was stuck in supplement classes.
"Hey there, I see you guys have returned." Walking up to them is Touya himself who had some cold drinks in his hands. On his arrival he stared back at some of the adolscents making them look away, the boys thinking the girl was either taken or with some guardian. Once he did that, he then held them out to them the drinks saying, "Guys want any?"
"Sure." Sara said accepting the drink with Kazakiri also taking one giving a curt thank you. Touya then grabbed his own drink which was nearby and all three then sat down on some nearby benches, watching the many students playing about in the pools and water slides. As the three relaxed, Touya then got curious about something.
"Hey Kazakiri," He began getting the girls attention. "I was wondering, what exactly do you do for fun?" The girl in question stared at him a bit, before he then added, "You don't have to answer if you want. Just killing time, ya know."
"T-that's okay." Kazakiri said blushing a bit while drinking her smoothie. "As for what I d-do for fun, well. I guess I enjoy hanging out with a certain friend of mine. A-how would you say-cosplayer of sorts. Or a religious person, I can never tell."
"A cosplayer." Sara said a bit curious about this friend. "This person must like dressing up."
"A-A bit." Kazakiri smiled growing fond of those memories she made with her. "She's a sweet if a bit childish person. Who gave me a chance when nobody else would."
"Really." Sara said a bit surprised. "I thought someone like you would have a bunch of friends."
"Same here." Touya agreed.
"W-well I do have other friends. But it was thanks to her I made others." True those like Touma she has grown fond of, but had it not been for Index she doubted she would have even been friends with him. It was all thanks to her that she found a reason to continue on. "She's a good friend, getting me to come out of my shell and helped me when others saw me as something else. Even that boy she hangs with helped me out when others denied me."
"Now isn't that sweet." Touya chuckled. "I guess you made good pals in this city. You must really care about them."
"I do." Kazakiri warmly smiled. She then gazed at the pool where many people hung out, each having fun with their own friends. "You know, I think I'll bring my friend here to have fun. She's been complaining about the heat and how she didn't want to wait for her friend while he did supplement classes."
"Ouch. That sounds like a pain." Sara knew the feeling of being forced in a boring class to make up work. When she first arrived here she had to do so much make-up work despite the fact she had been somewhat forced into this city.
"I feel sorry for that guy." Touya knew firsthand from his son that being stuck in a hot classroom was no fun at all. "I any case Kazakiri, you should definitely bring your friend here, I also recommend these smoothies They're delicious."
"I will." Kazakiri kindly said. "You know, you remind me of one of my friends actually. Kind of like-a grown up version." She added feeling some familiarity with this man, with the only difference being she felt she could touch him and be completely fine.
"I'll take that as a compliment." Touya says.
"Hope you and your friend have fun." Sara told her with the bespeckled girl giggling.
"Of course. In fact she'll probably bring that cat and wear that Magical Kanamin swimsuit she had her friend buy her." Magical Kanamin. Touya knew that series, if he recalled Touma's little friend Index loved that show. Remembering how the girl spoke pleasurably about it and how she once dressed as the heroine in question with a good friend of hers. He bet if Index met Kazakiri, they'd get along just fine.
"In any case, thanks for hanging out with me." Kazakiri stood up and then bowed to them. "Bye." Then like that, she vanished.
"..."
"..."
Leaving two silent and shocked individuals unsure of what they had just seen. One minute Kazakiri was there, the next she was just...gone. Touya then looked at his smoothie, then at the exact spot Kazakiri had been in.
"I should probably stop drinking this."
And our favorite ghost-like girl leaves with a good impression. What a nice time she had, enjoying spending some time with Touya and Sara, and will bring Index for some pool fun in the future. Not Touma though, he'll be too busy making up some of his work. I know how that feels. Until next time.
