KS: Told you I'd post the first chapter immediately. Now we get to take a look at what's going on with 8man. I assure you, this will be a story to remember. Oh yeah, I plan on having this story crossover with several others, but unless I don't intend on revealing them just yet. For now, we're going to ease into 8man's new life.
Hachiman sighed as he looked through window on the subway, watching the scenery pass by. No matter how many times he saw it, there was nothing special. Buildings, advertisments and the occassional propaganda displayed on billboards. The third sight made him cringe with distain, wondering how the country ended up in such a wretched state.
"It's like 1984, but in the 21st century," he muttered. "How did we end up like this?"
He turned on the HUD on his PM and watched a news clip.
"In other news, Blume has made continued to make stride in advancing the PM system, allowing law enforcement to easily identify potential acts of indecency before they are carried out. While the public is enthusiastic for such a positive development, there are others who claim that Blume is simply attempting to save face after the main branch in the United States has been undermined and ridiculed by hackers."
Hachiman scoffed. "They're so confident in a flawed system that has been exploited over and over again. I can't tell if they're in denial or desperate." He looks at his uniform and touched the pin. "And this school I've transfered to claims to have the highest morality in the country... how far did we fall?"
He suddenly got an uneasy feeling that someone was glaring at him. Granted, he was not unused to such treatment, but this time, it felt more intense than normal.
"I wonder who's giving me a evil eye this time around."
He turned to his right and saw a large man with short black hair and side burns glaring at him from a distance while grinding his teeth.
"What's his problem?" Hachiman muttered as he looked away. "It wouldn't surprise me if he knew about me as well, given how my name was plastered across every news station in the country. But still, that look he has reminds me of a gorilla."
"Excuse me, young man!"
He quickly turned to the man again, who was being confronted by a woman.
"Did you grope my rear just now?" she asked in an accusing tone.
"What are you talking about?" the man replied. "My hand wasn't anywhere near your rear."
The two began to argue, causing a commotion. Hachiman, however, immediately saw through the facade.
"Even if the laws have changed, people will still find a way to use it to their advantage," he muttered. "Plus, he was shooting daggers at me the whole time, so he has no reason to perv on that woman."
Hachiman took off his uniform jacket and unbuttoned his shirt, showing a black shirt underneath. In addition, he put on a red bean cap and sunglasses before putting his uniform in his bag.
"Now to check the map."
Hachiman opened his PM once more to look at the map. The train was nearing the station, giving him a perfect opportunity.
"Awesome. I can escape using that route."
Once the train stopped, Hachiman made his move and stealthily made his way towards the bickering duo without drawing any attention to himself.
"You're in big trouble, you lecherous-"
"Excuse me," Hachiman interrupted as he appeared between the two. "You have the wrong guy. I'm the one who groped your rear seconds ago."
The woman blinked. "...What?"
Hachiman grabbed her wrist and dragged her away. "Come on, let's go find a station so you can report me."
"W-What?! Let me go, you idiot!"
Hachiman and the woman got of the train just as the door closed, but she managed to free herself from his grip.
"Look what you've done, moron!" she snapped as she grabbed his collar. "Do you know how much you can get for reporting a pervert?"
"I don't know or care about that," Hachiman replied coldly. "And I doubt the DS are gullible enough to believe a false claim."
The woman growled at him, then rushed off towards a group of police officers.
"Help! That deviant has been harrassing me on train and said all kinds of naughty things!"
Hachiman grit his teeth as he saw the police run towards him. Immediately he rushed in the opposite direction, pushing past anyone that was in his way. Unfortunately, he saw the Decency Squad run towards him from every direction, cutting off his escape route.
"This is bad," he muttered. "I'm trapped."
"Did I hear someone say naughty?"
"Huh?"
Hachiman looked up to see who was said that, and was bewildered to see that the speaker was a female with long black hair wearing a white cloak.
"Who in the heck is that?"
"Oh no! It's her!"
Hachiman was taken aback by the officer's panicked tone of voice.
"We're under attack! It's Blue Snow!"
Hachiman did a double take. "What, what?"
Blue Snow turned around, showing off her golden eyes and... white panties covering her face.
"GREAT COCK AND BAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLS!"
The station fell silent for a few seconds, then chaos erupted. There was screaming and panicking all throughout the station as people evacuated.
"Whoa, talk about going from zero to a hundred," Hachiman commented. "At least I'm not longer in the crosshairs."
He ran in the same direction of the bystanders to blend in while Blue Snow continued spouting obscenities.
"COCK-A-DOODLE MY PUSSY!"
Hachiman sweatdropped. "Is she being serious right now?"
"Nothing beats saying dirty words in public!" Blue Snow said cheerfully. "Except saying them with panties over yo' face!"
In the corner of her eye, she saw the Decency Squad approach her. Instinctively, she gripped the sides, threatening to lift them up.
"Stay back, boys," she warned. "I'm not wearing anything under this towel. Grab me and it'll fall off. I'll be nekkid as the day I was born! Then anyone who pins me down will be blackmailed for exposing a woman in public!"
Hachiman chuckled. "Now that's how you exploit a law to your advantage."
Blue Snow reached into her cloak and pulled out a deck of cards. "I demand liberty from oppression! Dirty jokes are my civil right! Now some parting gifts, happy on the parts!
Hachiman caught one of the cards and looked at the picture, which was a buxom woman with crimson hair and blue eyes wearing purple lingerie complimented her figure. Needless to say, he was impressed.
"Not bad," he said. "Don't see a lot of girls sporting garterbelt nowadays."
He pocketed the card, then saw Blue Snow jump down in front of him.
"What are you doing?" she said. "I'll handle things here. You don't want to be late for your first day at school!"
Hachiman blinked. "Wait, what did you mean by-"
He was unable to get his question across as Blue Snow ran off, distracting DS members by throwing erotic cards at their faces. Sighing, he decided to take advantage of the confusion and make his exit. Putting on some gloves, he went to the railing, where a rope was there for him.
"Good thing I put the gloves on," he said. "Nothing ruins a good palm like friction burn."
Jumping over the rail, he slid down the rope, letting out an excited holler. Little did he know, he would soon meet with Blue Snow once more.
KS: I just want to say how much I love Blue Snow. You don't see many characters would be dressed in nothing but a sheet and spouting out dirty words in a society that has allegedly remove them. Anyway, Hachiman is now off to school... but he's going to make a little detour on the way. You'll soon find out.
