Chapter One.

Fuutarou could not see a thing out the window. Fog was covering the entire street. It was thick fog and it was impossible to see through. Currently, he was in his dad's car, on his way to the Nakano household. Fuutarou thought about how his dad was able to drive through this thick fog.

His sister Raiha was also riding in the car. She sat next to him in the back row and was also staring out the window. She didn't look too happy, wearing a worried expression on her face. Fuutarou's dad didn't look too happy either. He too also had a worried and sad look on.

The three of them continued through this fog and eventually reached the apartment complex that housed the Nakano family. Isanari found a parking spot and stopped the car. Fuutarou, Raiha, and Isanari got out of the car and looked up at the huge apartment complex.

The place was massive. It looked modern and new, a place built for rich people staying in Japan. Isanari led the way to the front of the building and stood in front of the double glass doors. He opened them and the three shuffled into a little waiting room with a tablet to the right and another pair of glass doors in front of them.

Isanari walked over to the tablet and typed something in. A lock was heard to unlatch and the inner glass doors opened to welcome the Uesugi's. Fuutarou took a step into the lobby and looked around. It was spacious. Well decorated and looked warm and cozy to the average person. Isanari and Raiha didn't seem to entranced with the lobby though.

"Alright Fuutarou. You ready?" Isanari asked his son.

"It's a tutoring job. I'll be fine." Fuutarou replied.

"Haha yea, I'm sure you will." Isanari joked. He gave a half smile.

"Alright, so we go up these elevators" Isanari pointed, "and we go up."

"Well I would think that's what elevators do dad." Fuutarou chuckled.

"Haha yep." Isanari replied.

The three then walked to the elevator. They entered, clicked a button on the panel, and the lift took them up. Up and up they went, the panel above the door flashed the floors they were passing.

22… 24… 26… 28… 30…

Eventually, they reached the 54th floor. The elevator dinged and opened it's doors. Isanari was the first to take a step out. Fuutarou and Raiha followed behind. Isanari led them to a door and he knocked. He took a step back and stood there, waiting.

The door opened and the three Uesugi's were greeted with a rich looking man.

"Hello Mr. Uesugi." The man greeted.

"Hey Maruo. I brought the boy." Isanari stepped aside and showed Fuutarou.

"Ah perfect, is he ready to start tutoring right away?" Maruo asked.

"He sure is, aren't ya?" Isanari nudged Fuutarou.

Fuutarou looked at the man in the doorway. He's seen him before, he's sure of it.

"Have I seen you before somewhere?" Fuutarou asked.

"I mean you may have. I was probably on television as some point." Maruo replied.

"Ah that's right! You work for that mental hospital." Fuutarou said.

"Yep I sure do." Maruo replied.

Maruo worked at a well renowned mental hospital and was able to cure many patients while there. He got popular off of that.

"Well anyways, enough about me. Come on in, let's get you settled." Maruo opened the door wider to allow Fuutarou to come in.

Fuutarou took a step in and entered the Nakano household.

"Alright well we'll be on our way now. See ya Fuutarou." Isanari waved goodbye.

"See ya big bro." Raiha said bye as well. She seemed sad.

Fuutarou turned to look at the interior of the Nakano apartment. It too, was spacious and roomy. It felt like a house itself inside this apartment complex.

"Well welcome to apartment. The girls are probably at the table. They've been waiting." Maruo pointed towards a table.

"Alright thank you." Fuutarou bowed and started his walk over to the table. Maruo walked away to wherever.

Fuutarou approached the table and looked at the heads of who were sitting there. 5 somewhat identical heads of hair, all sitting around a table.

"Uh hello. I'm Uesugi Fuutarou." He introduced himself.

The 5 sisters all had somewhat sad looks on their face but after hearing him introduce himself, they lit up.

One girl jumped up. "Ah! Fuut- I mean Uesugi-San! Good to meet you!"

She was energetic.

"Hello. And you are?" Fuutarou asked.

"Ah! I'm Nakano Yotsuba!" She introduced herself.

She seemed nice. And she was eager to meet him for some reason. She had short hair and what looked to be a ribbon in her hair.

Next another short haired girl said hello.

"Hi, U- Uesugi-San." The short haired girl greeted.

"Hello, and your name?" Fuutarou asked.

"Nakano Nino. It's Nakano Nino." She looked away.

She didn't seem to like him too much. She also had some butterflies or something in her hair.

Fuutarou continued to meet the three other quints. He met Itsuki and Miku, the one's with a little more length in their hair. One had stars and another had headphones. Finally was Ichika. She didn't have any accessory on but she still looked the exact same as her sisters.

"Well very nice to meet you all. I hope I will be able to teach you all well." Fuutarou said finally taking a seat.

He took a look at the 5 sisters. They looked eager to learn but yet also tired? Like they were fed up with tutors maybe?

"So where should we start?" Fuutarou asked the group.

"Well to help you out, all of us are good at one specific subject for some reason." One of the sisters said.

"Thank you, uhmm, which one are you?" Fuutarou asked.

She looked hurt.

"It's Nino. Nakano Nino." She gave her name again.

"Nakano Nino. Got it." Fuutarou repeated.

"Nakano Nino." Nino repeated again.

"Yep, Nakano Nino." Fuutarou repeated once again.

"So all of you are good at a subject then." Fuutarou said.

"Yep, just decided to save you the hassle to figure that out on your own." Another sister said.

"Which are you? Sorry, I'm still learning." Fuutarou apologized.

"Miku. Nakano Miku." The headphones girl said.

"Ah alright got it." Fuutarou took a mental note.

The atmosphere doesn't seem too happy now. Just a few minutes ago, Fuutarou felt that these girls were happy to see him. Now they just feel sad that he can't remember their names.

"Alright, so I guess you guys can just do your homework and I'll come help if you need it." Fuutarou said.

The quints looked at him like they were expecting more but he stopped talking. They shrugged and started to work on their homework.

The 5 sisters grabbed their pencils and start scribbling and writing on their papers. Fuutarou stood up to watch over their work.

He went behind Miku first. Or he thought it was Miku. She was working on history homework. Japan History to be exact.

Then he went to Nino. She was on English.

Then to Yotsuba, she was on Japanese.

Then to Ichika, she was on science.

Then to Itsuki, she was on math.

He sat back down in his seat and let out a huge breath. After a while, the girls finished their homework. He took them to see what their answers were.

They were bad. But there was something about them that seemed off. Like they were purposely bad maybe?

Despite that, Fuutarou decided to help them. He first went to Miku and reviewed over her homework.

"So what happened here?" Fuutarou asked. Miku was stuggling on her math section.

"This number is supposed to carry over." Miku responded.

"Are you sure? Recheck your work." Fuutarou said.

Miku looked at him and then looked at her paper. She noticed her mistake immediately and fixed it.

He continued to do this with the other 4 sisters. His final conclusion was that these girls are truly only good at their own subject. Other than that, the other subjects are not their strong suit and they have multiple mistake. They find them quickly however but some answers seem off. Fuutarou didn't pay attention to this though.

Before long, their first tutoring session was over.

The girls went up to their respective rooms and left Fuutarou alone in the living room. Maruo came out of no where.

"So how was it?" Maruo asked.

"Yea It wasn't bad, I think they actually have some potential within them." Fuutarou answered.

"Well that's good to hear." Maruo smiled.

Just then, a loud thud was heard from upstairs. Fuutarou and Maruo look up towards the girls doors. They both rush upstairs.

Maruo opens each door and finally gets to Nino's. He opens it to see Nino on the floor.

"Hey hey what happened?" Maruo asked. He came over and bent down to check in.

She was crying.

Nino was crying.

'Why was she crying?' Fuutarou thought to himself.

Nino sniffled through some tears. "I can't do this anymore. I'm done." She cried into her fathers shoulder.

"Hey hey it's ok." Maruo turned towards Fuutarou. "I'm sorry you have to see this, she isn't talking about you by the way. This is a whole different matter. I'm sorry."

"Oh it's ok." Fuutarou said. He was still taking the scene in.

"Well I think your dad might be here soon, I think you should just go and come back tomorrow. I'll deal with this." Maruo smiled towards Fuutarou.

Fuutarou took this as his cue to leave. He turned right around and decended the stairs. Fuutarou took his bag from the chair and turned to get one last look at the apartment.

He opened the front door and walked out. Isanari was there waiting.

"Hey." Isanari waved. "How'd it go?"

"Yea it was great. Except for the end." Fuutarou said.

"Oh? What happened?" Isanari asked.

"Uhmm one of the sisters was crying hard about something. It was uh." Fuutarou paused.

Isanari looked at Fuutarou expecting a name.

"Ah Nino. Yes Nakano Nino." Fuutarou said.

Isanari nodded. "I see."

The two walked to the elevator and entered.

"I think I'll continue tutoring them. They seem bright plus I would like to help out with whatever is going on." Fuutarou said.

"I think that would be a great idea." Isanari said. "So back here tomorrow?"

"Yep, back here tomorrow." Fuutarou responded.

The elevator descended back down to the ground floor and Fuutarou left the quints.

—————————————————————————

Welp I'm back. I got bored of writing Fuutarou and the Quints so I wanted to make something new. This wasn't the other fic I was hyping up before this is something entirely new. Just a short pilot chapter here. Lmk what you think and if I should continue. I think this story will be pretty good if I can write all that I have in my mind on here. Thanks :)
