Hello my people! Let's start a riot! A riot! Let's start a riot! That is a song that I can't remember the name of. It might be Start A Riot, I can't remember.
Anyway, how have you all been? I'm now watching RWBY and it is actually good. Volume four is what I'm on. You probably don't care about all though, so I guess you can start reading.
Chapter 26: Free Time With The Maid
"What to do? What to do?" Yuudai wonders to himself walking around the academy. He left Louise that morning thinking that a break is necessary.
For a while now they have only angered each other, so he left her a note explaining this. Then left the room. He tried to find Guiche, but lost interest after a while. He still has the cans inside his pockets waiting for him from a couple nights ago.
His mind wanders to Siesta. "I could always hang out with her for a while. It's been some time since we got to just enjoy ourselves." He says to himself. Yuudai proceeds to walk to the kitchen to find Siesta just coming out looking somewhat bored. "I see you are having a boring morning." He says chuckling as she jumps at the sound of his voice. "And add startling."
She looks at him recognizing him without a problem. Siesta smiles at the teen boy. "It has been a while. How are you?" She asks.
"I'd be doing better if you were to have a break to hang out for a while." He answers.
"Did you just hit on a girl other than Henrietta?" Wales asks from beside him. He isn't sure whether or not to be impressed. Yuudai holds up a finger behind his back to signal he'll explain later.
Siesta instantly becomes so much less bored. "I'll ask, I'll be right back." She runs into the room.
"The reason for that is one, I didn't hit on her. Second is that I figured out another way to screw the rules the universe is trying to force on me." Yuudai answers Wales.
"How could you find a way to escape my soul's restriction?" Wales asks curious.
Yuudai smirks using a tiny bit of the ring magic to summon his gun of darkness. "This little rule breaker is my life hack. I thought last night that is I shot myself I'd be able to do what I want with my feelings without influence still. After all, your restrictions is made from magic." He explains returning the gun.
Wales gapes at Yuudai in awe. "You are impossibly overpowered sometimes." Wales mutters.
"He said I could have a break as long as you payed the kitchen a visit sometime." Siesta tells him running out of the room. She is carrying a box out with her.
Yuudai goes next to the door. "I'll visit soon guys, don't worry!" He tells them all getting cheers and people saying congratulatory things adding Our Blade at the end.
"So where are we going?" Siesta asks.
Yuudai just shrugs. "I don't know. Wherever we end up I guess."
She hands him the box. "Before we start wandering to who knows where, please take this. I've been feeling as if you should keep it yourself." She informs him.
"Well I've actually been thinking about keeping it on me too. I guess we were on the same wavelength." He jokes opening the box and taking out the scarf. Yuudai knew what it was the moment he saw the box. He wraps the scarf around his neck feeling like the coolest guy alive as the scarf somehow is caught by the wind causing it to flap behind his briefly.
"So where to?" She asks grabbing his arm and pulling it close to her.
He deadpans at her. "You've missed me a lot, haven't you?"
"Yes." She answers simply. The two laugh at the short answer starting to walk in a random direction.
From behind a corner behind them is Louise fuming. "He let her hold his arm?! I can't even get him to spend much longer than an hour without him going off on me!" She exclaims.
Later At Night
"It is a beautiful night to behold." Yuudai says sitting on the ground in the Vestri Court next to Siesta.
"It really is." Siesta agrees. Yuudai pulls out one of his cans opening it catching her attention. "What is that?" She asks.
Yuudai takes a drink enjoying the carbonated taste he hasn't felt on his taste buds in so long. "It is my Mountain Dew that I have missed ever so much." He replies.
"Wait, that is a drink from your world?" She questions surprised.
He nods. "Quite good too. Want a taste?" He offers the can.
Wanting to be closer to the world he has described so many time, she happily accepted. She take a small sip almost spitting it out from the surprise of the carbonation and taste. Siesta swallows the liquid though handing the can back.
"What did you think of it?" Yuudai questions curious of her opinion.
She gives him a thumb up. "It wasn't bad. It's probably an acquired taste though." She answers.
Yuudai looks at the can giving a shrug. "To be honest, I couldn't have cared less if I ever got this. This is mainly just me drinking my world back into me. If that makes any sense." He tells her.
"It does in a way." She says.
After that, the two lay in silence next to each other. A star flies on by in the sky above bringing a smile to Yuudai's face. That is because no matter how hard he tries, he couldn't imagine a better life with better people. Minus the war and all.
"So are we going to pretend I never said I love you back before we left for my home town?" Siesta asks smiling as well.
"She did what?!" Wales exclaims popping up out of nowhere. Yuudai ignores him though.
"Not really. I just figured that you somehow got over me." Yuudai answers still looking into the stars.
Siesta rolls over on her stomach to look at Yuudai. "You are the only guy I've found that I genuinely love. How would I get over that?"
Yuudai hums in response. "Honestly, I have never felt love for anyone besides my family, so I wouldn't know. Not to mention my constant reminder I could be the cause of your death if you got that close." He tells her.
"If I die then I die, but I know you wouldn't let that happen." She reasons giving a bright smile.
"That's probably what they'd hope for." Yuudai mutters imagining the many scenarios. Suddenly Siesta is climbing on top of him (Uh oh, Siesta getting a bit touchy feely!). "Explanation please." Is all he can say before Siesta steals a kiss from Yuudai.
She pulls away to look at the teen in the eyes finding him with wide open eyes. When he asked to hang out earlier he never expected or imagined this would be a possibility. Not once. The scariest part for him is one thing: he know Louise has been stalking him for a while now. Watching the two with anger and jealousy in her eyes.
"Please start running in a different direction while I am chased away." Yuudai tells the maid getting a confused look from her.
"Why run? Your life is already forfeit." Louise states with a dark shadow oozing around her. She is standing not even a yard away now holding out her wand.
"Wait, I can get that Guiche's ex to get me a potion to calm her down! Perfect!" Yuudai mutters as his hair gains light blue streaks.
"Are you going to run?" Louise questions sending shivers down his spine.
Siesta finally takes his advice to run resulting in Yuudai quickly standing up. "Seeing as you want me dead...yes." He says before disappearing in a burst of speed.
"You can't hide!" She roars into the night.
"Bet." Yuudai retorts to himself running through the academy hallways. He finally finds Montmorency's room. Yuudai knocks on the door getting no response, but a lot of talking...from Guiche. He opens the door finding the two at the window turning towards him startled.
"What the hell? Yuudai?" Guiche asks.
"Lost cause man. Lost cause." Yuudai starts. "Now, Montmorency, I need a potion to get a potion to calm down a raging Blanc."
She glares at the teen. "What made you think I'd have something like that?" She asks.
"Guiche told me." Yuudai answers pointing at the blond.
Montmorency shoots him a glare. Guiche deadpans at Yuudai. "With that mouth of yours this might be a lost cause." Guiche states.
"Besides, why would I help you?" She asks Yuudai turning back to him.
"Because if you don't then I am pretty sure you would rather lose only one potion rather than everything in this room." Yuudai replies already looking around.
'Wait...if I give him the potion in the wine then perhaps that would create a sort of payback. Screw it, he isn't leaving anytime soon anyway.' She thinks in her mind. She hands him the wine glass. "Give her this. It'll stop her from her raging."
Yuudai sighs in relief. "Now if only people in my world had this stuff, there would be much less broken consoles and computers." He mutters thinking back to his world.
With Saito On Earth
"Damn this game to hell!" Saito screams throwing a computer out of his window shattering it. He then pales.
"Did I hear my son break his window?" His mother asks.
"Yeah and you're about to hear me break his leg!" His dad threatens.
"You wouldn't." His wife states.
"Yeah, but he doesn't know that."
With Yuudai
He is standing outside Montmorency's door seeing Louise storming towards him. Yuudai breathes in and out presenting the wine glass. "Before you kill me, please, have a drink." He tells her.
She wordlessly walks up to him taking the glass from him. "If you spiked this with a sedative, I'll rip your guts out with my bare hands." She growls.
"Like I'd spike your drink." Yuudai retorts looking to the side. "After all, that was Montmorency's doing." He says to himself quietly.
She downs the drink throwing the glass to the side afterwards. "Now prepare to…" Her furious mood suddenly changes.
Yuudai sighs in relief walking into Montmorency's room. "Thank you Montmorency. You have no idea how much you helped me." He thanks the girl getting her to blush.
Louise embracing Yuudai from behind him letting tears fall from her eyes. "W-why don't y-you ever give me the attention you g-give Siesta?" She asks stumbling over her words.
Yuudai's eyes widen. "Oh crap." He says knowing what's going to be said next.
"I-I'm the one that l-loves you!" She states beginning to pound on his back with her small fists.
Yuudai glares at Montmorency. "I know what you just did."
Guiche looks between Louise and Yuudai. "Uh...please tell me." Guiche pleads.
"She spiked this stupid drink with a love potion!" He answers not sounding too happy.
"Quit ignoring me you idiot!" Louise orders him childishly.
"If I could ignore I would, but you are clinging to me like an infant so that is kind of hard to do!" He exclaims. This gets her to start crying again making him cringe. "Unless you want to get pummeled you best start explaining how to get rid of this stupid side effect." He states looking at Montmorency.
She rolls her eyes, but knows he probably would keep his word on that threat. "Sorry, but that would include a huge trip."
"Hey Guiche, we are going on another trip together." Yuudai says to him.
"If we all die I'll tell Brimier that you killed us when I meet him." Guiche tells him.
"Screw that guy, he isn't a god." Yuudai retorts.
"Love me you idiot!" Louise exclaims.
End

Yuudai: Merry Christmas you unforgiving swine!
Be nice! I already said the outro!
