I write a lot of supernatural stories relating to demon hunters but before you get turned off, there is no OTT action or really unrealistic scenes so please read and enjoy. I want as much feedback as possible, this is my first EVER fanfic.

I do not own any part of Love Hina; if I did I would be rich and famous.

*****FLASHBACK*****

"Did you know that if two people who love each other go to Tokyo University, they'll live happily ever after?" the young girl asks the boy opposite her.

"Really?" he replies, not sure if it were true.

"When we grow up let's go to Tokyo University together!" she says to him as she plants a kiss on his cheek.

*****END FLASHBACK*****

15 years later and the boy in question, Keitaro Urashima, is strolling down the streets of Tokyo with an expression that can only be described as grim. Rain clouds loom in the distant and sirens can be heard nearby.

"Are you still pursuing that pathetic promise?" a voice asks.

"I see you're still hanging around", Keitaro snaps back, "don't you have anyone else's life to wreck?"

"You know it doesn't matter what you do, it'll end the way I predicted.like it almost did already."

Keitaro didn't answer him; instead he looks up a large set of stone steps he is climbing and at a large building coming into view.

"So this is Hinata House?"

"Indeed, I just hope I can rest up here for a while before any more of your friends arrive."

"I'll take that as an insult."

Keitaro tries the door and with ease opens it, looking into the lobby. "Hello, anyone here?"

'Strange, seems empty' Keitaro thinks to himself, a word that he doesn't like using.

"Grandma, I have a few problems; I need to study for my Tokyo U entrance exams. Can I stay here for a little while?"

"Why bother studying? It won't do you any good."

"Shut the hell up!" Keitaro hisses at the voice. "Where are Grandma and everyone else anyway?"

The 19-yr-old studies the rooms suspiciously, watching and listening for any sign of movement. The more he concentrates, the less he likes it.

"I don't like this, I come here from my parents' house and it's deserted, think there's a connection?"

Keitaro gets no response and on noticing the 'Landlord's Room' sign above him, Keitaro makes his self comfortable, while waiting for someone to turn up.

"You do know you're in the 48th percentile and bad at every subject you do? You don't play sports, have no special talents and your last relationship seems to be with a girl you made a promise too, one which she has probably forgotten all about! You should be thankful, I have come in useful a few times recently and you can't deny it!"

Keitaro sighs, "So I'm almost top of the class then?" The troubled teenager stared off into space and thought about what had just happened before he arrived. It was true, if it wasn't for his mysterious ally, he would have died.

Something catches his ear, a voice down a hallway, and without any hesitation, he proceeds to follow the noise until a single door is the only thing standing between the two. Sliding the door open with such force, Keitaro almost takes it off the rail.

"Who's there?" he asks in a demanding voice then stops cold. Three girls are sitting half-naked in a hot spring. One, a long-haired brunette, the second, a black haired girl with a sword nearby and the third, a busty, short-haired brunette with a cup of sake in her hand.

Keitaro steps back slightly, "sorry, wrong door!"

"PERVERT!!!" is screamed by the long-haired brunette as he unsuccessfully tries to explain but does nothing but stutter.

"Look out!"

Out the corner of his eye, he spots one of the girls charging at him with a large sword and makes a forceful slash that destroys the whole doorway that he was standing in and the wall behind it.

"This isn't normal." Keitaro thinks to himself as he stands one side of the doorway, crouched and facing the kendo girl.

"You dodged it! I have to admit I underestimated you!" she compliments.

"Barely..." he murmurs as he prepares to defend himself again.

"What's with the noise?" a woman asks, stepping out of the ruined door frame.

Keitaro turns and spots the familiar face. "Aunt Haruka!"

*********************************************************************

"Absolutely not!" rants the angry brunette. "This is a girl's dorm; we can't let a pervert like you stay another minute!"

Keitaro, his aunt and a group of girls are all sat in the main area.

"It was an accident! I didn't expect half-naked girls to be roaming the place!"

"Calm down, Naru!" her friend tells her.

"Where's Grandma, if I ask her." Keitaro suggests but is cut short.

"She's not here", his aunt declared, "she went on a world-wide sightseeing tour a year ago. We just get faxes from her once in a while. She's looking for new thrills so she took her failing hotel and turned it into a girl's dorm."

Keitaro's face fell almost instantly. "This can't be happening.

"Sorry, Keitaro, I know you'd have saved on rent here but the commute would've been hell!"

Keitaro gave a false half-smile.

"If I remember, you're at Tokyo U now, right? You'd be about a sophomore now."

Keitaro looks to the ground with slight shame on his face, "actually I'm a 2nd year ronin."

"A 2nd year ronin! What a loser!" the hateful brunette comments, happy to injure the pervert's ego.

"I'm surprised at you Keitaro, you seemed determined to get in last time we met."

"I'm having problems at home." he trailed off, trying not to let anything slip.

The group of girls gathered could see something painful hidden in his expression.

"By the way, be careful on the way home, there was an explosion in your area" his aunt warns.

"I know. It was my house that exploded" he admitted glumly.

Haruka raises an eyebrow. "Is there something you're not telling me?"

"Something happened to me a short while ago and I need to get a grasp on my present situation. I'm begging you to let me stay here; I don't know how much longer I can keep on going!"
