Here we go! The second part of The Warrior Princess!
Disclaimer: I do not own Infinite Stratos.
With Elias's tragic experience revealed, Thomas sets out to help the heir rebuild his confidence!
In a bold move, the boys arrange a rematch between Charlotte and Elias in order to help Elias work up the courage to fight back! With only two weeks to prepare, Thomas quickly teaches Elias how to fight in an IS.
It seems as though Thomas is doing a lot more behind the scenes, however...
But will Elias be ready?
The Past...
"My my..." Sneered one girl, "If it isn't our little boy-toy?"
"Where do you think you're off to, boy-toy? Classes aren't for a good while, and we have urges we want to vent." Cooed another.
"But...I..." Stuttered Elias, earning himself a firm slap to his cheek.
"When we want to hear your excuses, we will ask! But right now...We want to hear your screams."
The girls all roughly snatched Elias by his arms, and violently dragged him to an empty room.
"It's so nice, we get a pet dog like this all to ourselves!"
"Now now, remember that this dog's public property! Everyone should get the chance to use him to relieve stress!"
"Here here!"
Elias remained silent.
"I just love it how he dares not to fight back! So obedient, he really is a dog after all!"
"That's because he knows what we'll do if he thinks he's too good for us."
Elias nearly started to cry.
The awful girls that attended the academy all knew just how submissive Elias was. He was one of the few boys, due to his status, that were actually able to attend the academy, since the only students were rich girls.
"Although," Said one girl, "I think it's a little unfair, because good girls were denied the chance to attend this academy because these piggish boys all thought they could attend, and be equal to women!"
"That's quite unfair, isn't it?"
"What do you think, boy-toy?"
Elias was too afraid to speak, his answer would determine what they would do to him.
He received another slap to the face.
"I ASKED YOU A QUESTION!" Snarled the girl.
"...Y-Yes..." He whimpered softly.
"Is that so? Well, maybe you should quit the academy then. After all, you're no better than a sex-toy at this point!"
The girl shoved him against the wall, and lifted his chin.
"Then again," She considered, "If you did leave, we'd be so stressed out without our little entertainment."
"That's right!" Agreed another girl, "You're really our hero!"
"Without you, we'd be in torment!"
"Look girls!" Teased the third girl, "Our precious hero's offering himself to us! He really is so noble and kind, isn't he?"
They all laughed, knowing full well Elias wanted to protest.
They ripped off his shirt and blazer, and tied his wrists to keep him from resisting. Although, they knew full well that Elias wouldn't even struggle, making it easier to play with him.
But seeing him in such a pitiful way just made them feel so much better about themselves.
They shoved him to the floor, grabbing and touching him in certain...areas.
He tried to hide it, but they'd forced him into such a state.
The girls noticed Elias trying to close his legs in humiliation. He closed his eyes, his face was flushed red.
He just couldn't face anyone like this.
They laughed harder.
"I don't believe this!" Giggled the first girl, "He's...He's actually getting off on this!"
"My word! He's a masochist!"
"Well, who are we to deny him the pleasure?"
"Elias?" Called Cecelia.
Elias's eyes shot open.
Everyone all looked to see Cecelia, standing in the doorway. Her mouth was agape, and her eyes were wide.
She covered her mouth, shocked and horrified.
"My my," Said the first girl, "If it isn't Cecelia Alcott! Don't mind us, we were just reminding this dog where his place is; under the heels of a woman."
"W-What...?"
"Women are superior to men, of course!"
"Where are our manners?!" Said the second girl, "Come join us, won't you?"
The third girl picked up Elias, cupped his chin with her hand, and brought him in to steal a kiss from him. Elias made only a small attempt to resist, but was took weak to pull away. The girl's lips met his, and he was powerless to push her away.
Cecelia saw that Elias's eyes were wide open, horrified by what the girl was doing to him.
She stumbled back.
And finally, Cecelia slammed the door and ran away.
It was the last time Elias would see Cecelia for a long time.
The Present.
"Again!" Shouted Thomas.
Elias brought up his sword and shield.
"Do your worst, villain!" He declared.
Thomas brought out his Combat Knife and his left Barrier Shield.
Quickly, the two boys clashed. Thomas had something of an advantage, due to making quicker strikes with his knife. However, he had to be careful, Elias was one-handing a claymore, which would do some serious damage if Thomas was careless.
Maya and Chifuyu were watching from the control room.
"I'm stunned," Said Maya, "I never expected Dansforth to challenge a rematch with Dunois after that beating she gave him."
"Either he wants to feel good about himself," Said Chifuyu, "Or Scott put him up to it."
Elias was quickly getting good at swordplay, but still required discipline and balance. So far, it was only a single day into their two-week time frame for training Elias to be ready enough to actually stand-off against Charlotte.
Things were a little slow as they were now.
Before Thomas began to train Elias in the two weeks they had, he pulled Charlotte aside to do him a favor.
"You want me to what?!" Cried Charlotte.
"I want you to beat Elias like you're trying to kill him." Restated Thomas.
"But why?! If what you told me is true, you should be asking me to give him a chance, not beat him to a pulp!"
"That's precisely why," Said Thomas, "Elias's inability to fight stems from abuse he received from girls back in his old school. If we stimulate him into a similar scenario, we can get him to overcome his fear by pushing him to fight back."
"That will never work!"
"This is for his own good."
"I don't understand, why?!"
"He needs to see that he can fight a girl. Elias needs to get over himself, and actually pull a win under his belt."
"Is there another reason you're not telling?"
"His family company's going under. They threw him into the fray with their latest prototype, and they didn't seem to bother giving him any actual training in any sort of combat. We need to make sure it works. That way, it'll attract investors and interest for the Dansforth Company. It's a win/win if he pulls it off, not only for his family's future, but for his own."
Thomas knew what he was doing.
But it all depended on Elias.
2 Weeks later...
It was the day the class had been waiting for.
A proper match for Elias's debut.
Charlotte was preparing herself.
Thomas had asked her to scare the daylights out of Elias. As much as she didn't want to hurt the new boy, Thomas had made it very obvious that Elias needed to prove to himself that he could fight.
Elias was having a mental breakdown.
He actually agreed to this?! Why did he let Thomas talk him into doing that?!
There was no way he could win! Charlotte beat him effortlessly last time, what would make this time any different?
That wasn't to say Thomas didn't try.
All throughout those two weeks, Thomas did everything to try and get Elias into fighting shape. He helped Elias practice his aim, self-defense, hand-to-hand, swordplay, confidence, style, and focus.
On the last day, however, Elias was left confused.
Yesterday, instead of training Elias, Thomas had made Elias watch all sorts of fights. Ranging from anime, to boxing, and otherwise.
He never made his point clear.
"I taught you what I could," Said Thomas, "I can teach you how to fight like me, and everything else, but it's on you to prove you can."
Elias did what he could to keep himself from losing it.
He had to do this! His family's company was at stake! If he failed here, the prototype they made would be the butt of everyone's joke! He'd be forced to live the rest of his life cowering under the girls that did him wrong!
His future, as well as his family's, depended on his victory!
Thomas was sitting in the control room, with the other Representative Candidates, Maya, and Chifuyu.
"Dansforth!" Said Maya, "It's time to move onto the field!"
Elias whimpered in agreement, and launched onto the arena field.
Charlotte was waiting for him.
"Don't worry," Said Charlotte, struggling to keep a frightening aura, "I promise I'll leave you with bruises~!"
Elias whimpered, already intimidated.
"No!" Thought Elias, "I can do this! Thomas gave up his own time and wisdom for me, I have to prove he didn't waste it!"
Elias did his best to hide his fear, sweat was dripping down his face.
He drew his Thermal Claymore and Barrier Shield.
"Come on then!" He challenged, "I'm right here! Do...Do your worst!"
Thomas suddenly adopted Chifuyu's neutral stance.
He had a judgmental look on his face. His arms were folded, and he stood straight. To everyone else, it felt he'd actually became Chifuyu herself during the entire time he spent training Elias.
Even Chifuyu had a confused look on her face.
The timer counted down.
Elias gulped.
This was either going to be so worth it...
...Or he'd lose everything.
The bell rang, and the fight began.
Charlotte went on the attack, quickly closing the distance between them.
She unleashed a powerful right hook with the Shield Pierce.
This sent Elias right off his feet, as well as causing him to drop his Thermal Claymore.
However, Elias made a quick recovery, quickly turning his crash into a roll, spinning back to his feet.
"Wow!" Admired Ichika, "He didn't stay down this time!"
Thomas said nothing, not even moving.
Elias steadied himself, doing his best to make sure his anxiety didn't overtake him. He quickly picked up the Thermal Claymore, and took up a fighting stance, his Barrier Shield out in front, and his Claymore pointed towards Charlotte.
"I...I won't back down!"
"How precious!" Sneered Charlotte, "Looks like I get to play as much as I want with a toy like you!"
"A toy..."
Elias flinched, and froze.
His breathing quickly spun out of control, his blood ran cold, his determined face had twisted to a terrified one, but his body refused to move. It felt as though his entire body had suddenly frozen solid.
Elias was paralyzed with fear.
"Miss Orimura!" Cried Maya, "Something's wrong, Dansforth is unresponsive!"
"What?!"
"His vitals are out of whack!"
"Suspend the match-?!"
"No. Keep going." Interjected Thomas.
Chifuyu turned to Thomas, looking at him as though he was insane.
"This isn't up for debate, Scott!" Snapped Chifuyu, "Dansforth's liable to be unable to fight with these kinds of conditions!"
"He needs this."
"No he doesn't!"
"He needs to see...to understand..."
Thomas took notice Cecelia had been silent the whole time.
No-one else seem to notice yet, but she'd simply stood there, a somber look on her face. She was ashamed, reliving the time she'd seen Elias at his worst. One would think that she was shaming Elias for indulging such disgusting things.
Thomas knew better.
Charlotte didn't notice Elias's sudden inability to move.
She tore into him, doing just as Thomas told her to.
However, she was holding back. She didn't want to completely destroy Elias. Not like this.
Instead, she'd just beat him up a little.
She threw punch after punch in a furious combo, doing her best to quickly end the fight.
Elias didn't feel a thing.
He didn't fight back, get up, or even raise his shield to defend himself.
He was far too lost in his own fear to even notice what was happening around him.
"A toy..." His mind repeated, "A toy..."
Just like back in England.
Those abhorrent, lecherous, monstrous girls that dared called themselves students at such an academy.
All of those horrible things they did to him...
Touching...Beating...All of the experiences flooded back into Elias's memory.
Elias had fallen into the deepest depths of despair.
There was no way to climb back up from such a place.
"This is your mess!" Accused Chifuyu, "You need to fix it! Help him!"
"How do you suggest I do that?" Thomas asked calmly.
"Talk to him! Guide him! Do something dammit!"
"He already has what we need to win."
"The hell's that supposed to mean?!" Questioned Lingyin.
"I taught him everything he needs to know and do in order to win." Explained Thomas, "However..."
Thomas remained unfazed, like a statue.
"...It's all up to Elias now."
The people watching the fight were even more disappointed than before.
The way Elias made hype and built himself up, it implied he was going to put up more of a fight, that he'd actually do something far better to prove he was capable of standing his ground alongside the other two boys.
"Man," Said one girl, "This is just painful to watch."
Another girl began to cheer Elias.
"Come on, Elias!" She called.
Soon, the crowd began to follow her lead, calling out to Elias in the hopes that he'd snap out of his daze, and somehow find a way to counterattack, and turn the tide to his favor.
However, their cries fell on deaf ears.
Elias was reliving every moment of his horrible torture.
His mind brought up all his tormentors' words to the letter.
"You're a boy-toy! And that's all you'll ever be!"
"What's the matter? Inferior in the face of womanly superiority?"
"You're nothing! And you'll never be anything more!"
"It's quite unfair that good girls were denied the chance to attend this academy because of you, isn't it?"
"We're just putting this pig in his place."
"He really is a masochist after all!"
"Look at him! He actually gets off to this!"
"He should! After all, we're being so generous with our attention to him!"
"Don't struggle, it'll only make this longer and harder on you~!"
"Then again, I suppose I'm glad you attended this academy. After all, using you as my manservant really helps me relieve stress~!"
"He's like a pet dog~!"
"He's so weak, he couldn't fight back even if he wanted to!"
Charlotte could tell Elias was scared.
She didn't realize just what she was putting him through, however.
She continued in her brutal onslaught, doing her best not to stop out of her own morality. At most, she'd only went through about 25% of his shield energy. If what Thomas said was correct, she wanted to give Elias enough time to pull himself together.
Thomas told her not to give him a chance.
But she pitied Elias so much, she just couldn't help but to give Elias mercy.
Elias would've thanked her, had he not been lost in himself.
Each blow, every hit he took, it all brought back the wounds they'd inflicted upon him back then. The beatings, the kicks, the slaps, the groping, the punches, the cuts...The girls didn't care about Elias, only that they could abuse him.
They never stopped hurting him. Not when he was at he best, not even when he was at his worst.
He took it. All of it.
It was all he could do.
He was a victim who couldn't get justice. Not back then, for speaking out would only end up getting him in trouble with his abusive superiors. And not now, for exposing it now would mean nothing, because they'd done something irreversible to him.
He couldn't get justice then, and certainly couldn't now.
And now?
The cycle seemed to start right back where it left off.
Charlotte was thrashing him mercilessly, relentlessly. His body wouldn't obey his commands, it would only move after he received another blow from Charlotte. He wasn't even trying to move anyway, he was too far lost to even think about the outside world.
He was a good student.
He'd gotten good grades, participated in class, and seemed like the model student.
The delinquents took notice of this, and grew quite jealous. It wasn't that they were bullying him without reason. They showed interest in him, because he was so much better than them, and they hated it.
So they decided to make Elias worse than them.
The first time they started getting physical, they'd used a taser to keep him from struggling, tied him to a bed-frame, and groped all over his body, lingering between his legs to make sure they had leverage over him.
If he tried to tell on them, they'd expose him as a masochist sex-addict.
They made that very clear.
At first, Elias did struggle against them. However, his body seemingly ceased doing so as time went on. Behind his back, the delinquents secretly spread word about Elias, attracting much more unwanted attention.
Elias learned just how many girls were waiting for the chance to abuse him.
Each and every day, in between classes, more and more girls took Elias to any room they could and had their way with him. The abused him verbally, physically, sexually, and Elias was too scared, and too powerless to do anything to make it stop.
It was around the time he'd finally accepted his fate.
That fateful day Cecelia saw him.
He was exposed, his horrible secret now laid bare for her to condemn.
Cecelia, for the longest time, was the reason Elias hadn't taken his own life out of misery. Ever since the play, he'd become smitten with her beauty, trying day after day to get the lady to notice Elias as a suitor.
She kept rejecting him, embarrassed of confused.
She never laughed at him, or mocked him, or did anything else to him.
Perhaps that's why Elias was so enthralled by her.
She didn't hurt him.
She'd even carried him like a princess during the play. Sure, such a time was embarrassing to Cecelia. However, it was heart-racing and romantic to Elias.
Ever since then, he wanted to pursue it.
Girls all had their reasons for hurting Elias. Some did it to feel better about themselves, others did it out of jealousy for his good academics, some just wanted to satisfy their lecherous desires, some did it in the name of womankind.
But everyone just wanted to see that the model student wasn't as perfect as he seemed.
There weren't many other boys. At least, none of them that were willing to help.
There was no way out.
But then...Thomas came out of nowhere.
Thomas...
...Seemingly wasn't going to step in.
He simply continued to imitate Chifuyu as everyone argued with him.
Under any other circumstances, Thomas would've done more.
He would've been there, guiding and teaching Elias even as he fought. Normally, He'd be much more caring, and do everything he could to make sure he'd give Elias the right directions.
But He didn't.
Not this time.
Cecelia twitched.
Why?! Why would Thomas promise her to help Elias, and abandon the poor boy in the moment he needed him most?! It just made no sense?! She'd stalked the boys as they trained. Thomas trained him well...
...So why was he doing this now?
She couldn't bear being silent anymore.
She raced to the monitor Maya was sitting at.
"Elias!" She cried, "Pull yourself together, please! You're not weak, so show everyone how strong you are!"
She was on the verge of crying.
Did Elias even hear her?
Thomas had given up everything, sacrificed all the time he could've had to himself just to make sure Elias could stand on his own. He wasted all of his own time...
...Thomas was the man who gave Elias everything.
Could Elias be a man as well?
All of that footage of fights Thomas showed him. Some of it was of Ichika, some of it was Thomas, even of other fights that Elias never saw before.
Wait...
"Elias!"
Elias finally understood why Thomas showed him all those fights!
"Pull yourself together!"
They were of fighters doing some sort of sudden counter that would turn the fight! Just like Atom vs Zeus, or All Might vs All For One! It all made sense now! Elias had seen Ichika and Thomas themselves in such situations.
Like that time with Miss Yamada...
Thomas and Ichika were on the ropes, just like how Elias was now. Just like how Thomas was against Miss Yamada. Except, when the other two boys had their backs to the wall, they didn't just cower down in fear...
"Show everyone how strong you are!"
...They pushed back off the wall.
Even after everything Elias told him, after everything-the screw-ups, the mistakes, the piss-poor performances in combat-Thomas never gave up on him.
He couldn't give up on himself either.
Charlotte was now giving sweeping punches, trying to get Elias off his feet.
She made a fatal mistake.
She delivered a right hook, and left her left guard down.
That was Elias's ticket.
Without warning, Elias finally returned with a devastating right hook!
Charlotte stumbled back, absolutely dazed and stunned by Elias's sudden change from powerless to powerful.
Thomas smirked, and the Representative Candidates cheered.
The crowd went into uproar.
"That's how it's done!" Shouted Thomas.
"Thomas?!" Yelped Elias, "Where have you been, old chap?"
"Waiting for you." Answered Thomas, "Now, I'll guide you the rest of the way!"
Elias smirked.
He understood why only now Thomas chose to help him. Thomas wasn't speaking the whole time because he was waiting for Elias to finally pull himself together. He was a little angry, but otherwise thankful for Thomas's friendship.
"Then let's do it, together!"
Elias raised his fists into a boxing stance.
Charlotte finally recovered from Elias's uppercut.
"Advance!"
Elias marched right over to Charlotte.
"Lean back, Right Jab!"
Charlotte swung, but Elias leaned back to avoid her blow. Elias regained his balance as he delivered a powerful jab to Charlotte, further pushing her back.
"Now, pull back and concentrate your fire!"
Elias jumped back, quickly pulling into flight. He deployed his rifle, setting it to Automatic, and opened fire upon Charlotte.
Charlotte quickly evaded, and decided to step up a notch.
She pulled out her PDWs, and returned fire.
However, Thomas had trained Elias for such.
"Give 'er the Glass Wall!"
Suddenly, Elias deployed all of his Optical Drones, and quickly switched them to Shield Mode. He quickly set them all in front of himself, creating a wall the size of his IS Unit, shielding him completely.
"Wha?! That takes such skill!"
"Ha ha!" Cheered Elias, "After Thomas taught me basic combat, he also taught me to do things with style!"
He pushed out his hand, and quickly retaliated.
The "wall" of Drones suddenly lunged for Charlotte.
Without warning, the drones split apart.
Charlotte jumped away, only to find herself surrounded by the Drones.
She was pelted from all sides.
Elias let up, allowing Charlotte some breathing room.
However, her respite with short-lived.
Elias flew right for her, his Thermal Claymore and Barrier Shield in-hand.
He threw his Claymore like a spear at Charlotte. Charlotte narrowly evaded, the Claymore sinking into the ground beside her. However, Elias quickly landed, and with a quick spin, he pulled his Claymore out of the ground, and delivered a powerful slash to Charlotte's body.
"Have at thee, knave!" He jeered.
The crowd cheered with joy.
All was right with the world! All three boys finally proved they could hold their ground, and stand toe-to-toe with the girls of the IS Academy!
Charlotte saw no more reason to scare Elias.
Now she could fight a real IS Match.
Chifuyu stopped berating Thomas, and finally understood him.
"I see now..." She said.
The Representative Candidates were absolutely flabbergasted.
"Now that I look at it..." Said Ichika, "His fighting style's a lot similar to yours, Thomas."
"I taught him for two weeks," Explained Thomas, "But that stuff with the Drones? That was all him."
Charlotte brought out her Combat Knife and Barrier Shield.
The two of them traded blows.
However, Charlotte quickly found herself overwhelmed.
"Is that your best?!" Shot Elias, "Sir Thomas was far quicker and easily more deadly with a knife than you are right now!"
Charlotte was dumbstruck.
Just what did Thomas do during training Elias?
Elias brought Charlotte back to reality by delivering a standing kick to her face, and igniting his leg's thruster.
Charlotte fell to the floor painfully.
"I said so once before, and I'll do so again!" Elias declared, "I'm not afraid! And I won't hold back!"
"Now, give her the one-two!"
Elias fired a Left Hook, and a Right Uppercut.
"Alright!" Said Thomas, "Three-Box Combo to the body! Left-Right-Left!"
Elias shot a Left Jab to Charlotte's side, a Right Jab to her other side, and finally another Left Jab to her belly.
"Here's a big one! Shield Pierce Uppercut!"
Elias shifted his Barrier Shield to Shield Pierce, and struck Charlotte directly on the chin.
"Time for the Finisher!" Said Thomas, "Shield Pierce Groundpound!"
Elias launched into the air, slowing rolling upside down as he reached the dome.
His feet hit the dome, and he curled up into a ball on the surface.
In the blink of an eye, Elias launched off the dome almost too fast for the eye to see!
He was gunning his Unit at top speed, flying right for Charlotte!
Charlotte realized too late what Elias was about to do.
With a devastating Haymaker, Elias struck Charlotte with the Shield Pierce as he hit the ground.
Charlotte's Shield dropped to 0%, and Elias's dropped to 5%.
"The winner is Dansforth!" Declared Chifuyu.
The audience went wild with awe and joy.
Elias paused.
He looked around.
They were all cheering for him.
With a wave and a smile, Elias looked to the crowd...
...Knowing deep in his heart, his family and friends were proud.
Later that day...
"So, You knew about Elias's past?" Asked Ichika.
Thomas was sitting at the desk in their dorm room, Ichika was sitting on his bed. After the fight, Elias told all of the Representative Candidates, Chifuyu, and Maya about his past. Both Chifuyu and Maya were uncharacteristically motherly towards Elias afterward as they consoled him.
"Yes. That's why I planned this entire fight, from beginning to end. And judging from the look on your face..."
Thomas turned to look Ichika in the eye.
"...So did you."
"Yeah...I listened in while Elias was...Opening up to you."
"You could've come in. It'd been nice to have you there."
"It just seemed like a...moment, y'know? One of those one-on-one moments?"
"I see your reasoning, just not the justification."
Thomas turned back to the desk.
"What would you have done if Elias lost?" Asked Ichika.
Thomas paused.
"I find it best not to question what could've happened," He answered hesitantly, "But rather, what to do now."
"I get it now..."
"It would seem that Elias's confidence around girls has improved after that fight."
"Yeah," Observed Ichika, "But that was your plan all along, yeah?"
"Correct."
"You're even more calculative than I gave you credit for."
"One of us has to be."
That night...
Cecelia was reflecting upon herself in her room.
She heard a knock on the door.
She got up, and opened the door...
...Only to find Elias standing before her.
"L-Lady Cecelia..." He stuttered, "Can we talk?"
Elias closed the door as he entered.
"I'm sorry!" Cried Cecelia.
"For what, milady?"
"I...I didn't help you when you needed me all that time ago...I should've done something! Anything! I should've saved you from those horrible girls, but...I couldn't! I was too afraid! I ran...And I left you..."
"Think nothing of it."
"Hm?!"
"Think nothing of it!" Encouraged Elias, "I'm sure you had your reasons for leaving me that day, and I don't hold any malice to you. But know that I never forgot about my desire for you..."
Elias placed his hands on Cecelia's shoulders.
"Even if you never care...I..."
Elias struggled to get the words out of his mouth. His heart raced, he was beginning to sweat, and his face flushed red. He did the only thing he could think that would work. He brought the two of them closer together.
He pulled in Cecelia, and gave her a light kiss on the forehead.
They both gasped, and back away from each other with scarlet faces.
"I...I didn't mean to...I'm sorry!" Cried Elias in dismay.
Elias ran right out of the room, leaving Cecelia to her lonesome.
Cecelia had never felt this way before.
Her palms were sweaty, her heart was beating out of her chest, her breathing was all over the place, she couldn't think straight. She was in a daze, a haze created by Elias's unnaturally bold action.
Could she...really fall in love with Elias?
Not that she wouldn't mind...
A/N: All done! Sorry for the wait, but school's started back up, so I won't be able to write as much anymore.
I'm so sorry, but I'll keep writing as much as I can whenever I can!
But right now, I never thought I could actually start this ship. While I was tinkering with Elias's character, I jokingly decided to ship him with Cecelia. Eventually, that joke became something that I felt I could work.
Here's to hoping I do this right!
I hope you all like this ship, let me know your thoughts in a review or PM me!
Next time: Thomas's Reckoning.
When Kana keeps appearing out of the blue, Thomas becomes suspicious! By his own accord, Thomas quickly begins an investigation in the hopes of uncovering the truth!
But for some reason, Chifuyu keeps trying to stop him at every turn.
Phantom Task seems to notice, and offers him answers.
Will Thomas find the the truth? And what will happen if he does?
Leave a review, they're much appreciated and show that you care!
