FOREWORD
Well I am truly glad that everyone is enjoying my work. I makes doing this all worthwhile.
*In my Soap opera announcer voice.*
"So when we left off, Kongou Mitsuko was trapped in an alley. Could a cry of "Such Misfortune!" save her? We'll find out all of this and more as "The Touma Turns"
But on to the Q & A
Kami: I really don't know yet. I do know that I don't want this to be one of those stories that go on forever *coughMrQuestionmarkcough*
d3mystic: I;m glad you're enjoying the story. I'm glad you brought up the OCs. Just about everyone missed it, but those were the same girls that Touma helped on his way to school in the prequel story A Certain Boy And A Certain Infection. And while Thor and Fiamma would be interesting, they would really have no reason to be part of this fight.
Anon Gues: I haven't forgotten the classroom, trust me. And those girl Himegami spoke to were the same OCs from A Certain Boy And A Certain Infection that Touma helped on his way to school.
PoseidonofSea: I'm glad you enjoy them. It does take time to think of and write these chapters. I have a general outline about what will happen every chapter but not a ton of detail until I start writing.
toumakamijou298: Of course, Touma is running from something. He's always running from something.
MrQuestionMark: Wheres Touma? Who knows? Himigami was actually pretty fun to write, so I think we'll be seeing more of her. I kinda dossapointed in you Mr. ?. I expected you of all people to notice that the two girls Himegami spoke to where the girls from A Certain Boy And A Certain Infection that Touma helped on the way to school.
Whwsms: Your approval is greatly appreciated.
Amvmaster: Because Touma would never have the balls to do anything like that.
It was early in the morning but still dark outside. The sun was still about an hour or so from rising. Sphynx the calico cat was outside after being put out for the night. Usually he wandered about the city. Meeting up with other cats and searching for food in trash cans and killing rodents and bugs.
He would always come back about an hour or so before the humans he lived with awoke so that they could let him back in. Sometimes the girl in white let him in and other times it was the boy who let him in on his way out in the morning.
But this morning was a bit different.
'I better start heading back home," thought Sphynx. 'I want to be there when they open the door. I'm tired and want to go to sleep in that nice warm bed.'
Sphynx walked through the empty city. There was no one around and no sounds being made except for the sounds of other animals in the city; Cats in an alleyway, dogs in a separate alley, and the scurry of rodents and bugs.
Sphynx loved this time of day when he was all alone, walking the streets. It made him feel like he owned the city.
Sphynx was only a half dozen or so blocks away from his home when he saw something strange. What was strange was that he saw anything at all. There was never anyone out this late, and the fact that there was someone out wandering about was a very strange occurrence to the cat.
The person was walking in the opposite direction that he was, and was about seventy or eighty meter ahead of him, so the person didn't see or notice him. Letting his curiosity get the better of him, which was ironic considering what they say about curiosity and the cat, Shpynx decided to follow the person to see where he could possibly be going this early in the morning.
Being a cat, Shpynx was quick, agile, and a master of stealth. The person never knew that the cat was even following him. As Shpynx closed the gap between them, he got a better picture of the person that he was following.
It was a boy, with black spiky hair. In fact it was the black spiky haired boy that Sphynx lived with.
'Now where could he be going this early? It's too early for him to be going to school, and besides, his school is in the other direction.' thought the cat.
Shpynx continued to follow the boy as he trekked through the empty city. After a while of walking the boy stopped. The boy looked around a bit before reaching into his pocket. Pulling out his cell phone the boy pressed a few buttons and then put the phone up to his ear.
Steping a bit closer, but still far enough away that the boy won't notice him, Shpynx listened in on the call.
"So everything has already been arranged?"
"…."
"Ok, good. You know how they are here. I did want there to be any trouble."
"…."
"Ok, I'll see you soon."
The boy then hung up the phone. He then continued walking, heading off to wherever his destination was.
Shpynx thought about following him, but noticed that the sky was becoming lighter and that soon it would be daybreak. Tired and wanting to sleep, Shpynx turned around and headed back toward the dorm that his humans lived in.
'Well I don't really care what he's doing. I was just a bit curious. But, really, I should be heading back. The girl in white will be up soon and will be looking for me.' thought Shpynx.
And with that, he turned around and headed back toward the dorm he has come to call his home.
Komoe's classroom was all a buzzed about the new girl that has come seeking Kamijou Touma. The girl had a slim physique, long straight black hair, and black eyes. She was currently wearing a a tight-fitting bodysuit with gray, white and red details. She looked to be a serious type of person, and had fairly intense eyes.
Noticing all the blank stares that she was getting, Shutaura Sequenzia asked again about the whereabouts of Kamijou Touma.
"Well, is Kamijou Touma here are not?"
Asking this question a second time was a mistake, because instantly the males in the class lost their shit.
"What a beauty! And shes here looking for Kamijou?!"
"I can't believe the luck of Kamijou! Death to the Kamijou bloodline!"
"What a lucky bastard! "
"Goddamn Kami-yan disease!"
"Now, now, quite down everyone." spoke the tiny teacher to the rest of her class.
The class slowly but surely quieted down, knowing what Fukiyose would do to them if they continued.
Shutaura wondered for a bit who this tiny person standing in front of this high class was, but after having worked for Academy City for a while, hardly anything surprised her anymore.
Turning to the girl standing in the doorway, Komoe spoke to her;
"Now what was your name again?"
"Shutaura Sequenzia."
"And you here looking for Kamijou Touma?"
"Yes I am"
"Well, I'm sorry Sequenzia san, but Kamijou isn't in today. I really don't know where he is."
A frown appeared of Shutaura's face as she cursed under her breath. Shutaura then simply turn and head out of the classroom without another word spoken.
Exiting the school, Shutaura thought back on what happen brought her here in the first place.
It was early that morning. The sun hadn't even broken through the night sky yet, and Shutaura was already up doing her daily morning routine.
The routine included running 15km, 250 sit-ups and pushup a piece, and hand to hand combat training with her practice dummies. There was of course other company training that she and her men were required to do, but this was her own personal morning routine. This morning routine usually last about 3 hours, with an hour and a half dedicated to just the hand to hand training.
After her routine was finished, Shutaura headed towards the shower in her apartment. She turned on the hot water and stripped completely naked. Stepping into the shower, a slight smile appeared on her face. She could feel the hot water envelope her and relax her tired muscles. To be honest, this was her favorite part of the morning routine that she had created for herself.
She stood in the shower for 20 minutes before she even began to lather herself up. After finishing with her shower, Shutaura stepped out and grabbed the towel hanging from the nearby towel rack.
Drying off, Shutaura hung the towel around her neck as she walked into the other room. She lived alone, so she didn't have to worry about anyone seeing her naked. Shutaura lived in a 1 bed, 1.5 bathroom apartment on the 5th floor of a 9 story apartment building.
The bathroom she exited was connected to her bedroom, so she didn't have far to go to get dressed. Because of how tight and form fitting the suit she wore while working was, she usually wore nothing underneath but panties. The suit was tight enough to keep her breast in place, so she never needed to wear and bra while in the suit. Sitting on the bed, while still nude, Shutaura picked up her phone to check the time. She needed to be to work by 0730 and she usually finished up her morning routine by 0600. That gave her enough time to shower, get dressed and make it in to work.
However when she checked her phone today, she noticed that there was a message on it. She didn't recognize the number it was sent from, but she opened up the message anyways. She saw that there was a video in the message and hit the play icon in the middle.
Watching the video, she saw a familiar black spikey haired boy, having a meal with two girls that she didn't recognize.
That when she heard the voice of another boy that she didn't know speaking; "Looks like Kamijou Touma is looking for a girlfriend."
Shutaura eyes widened in shock.
"This boy is looking for a girlfriend?" Shutaura asked herself quietly.
Now Shutaura had gotten to know the boy fairly well during their adventure during the Endymion incident, and while she thought that he was strong and brave, didn't really seem to have strong romantic feeling for him. But it was someone else that pushed her over the edge after viewing this news, Meigo Arisa.
After the Endymion incident, Shutaura and Arisa merged into one being. And while Shutaura was the dominate personality, she still had Arisa's memories and she could influence her to a certain degree. So while Shutaura's feeling for the boy were there, but not strong, Arisa's feeling, combined with her own, pushed her over the edge.
Flooded with feeling of desire for the boy, Shutaura had no choice but to seek him out and ask him if the rumor that she just heard was true.
Seeing that is was about 0617, Shutaura knew that the boy would either already be up or was soon to be to get ready for class that day. Getting dressed in her form fitting suit, Shutaura decided that the best way to find the boy was to visit his school and confront him there.
But first she needed to find out a bit more information about the boy. Because while she had met him before, and had even been to his dorm as Arisa, she didn't actually know which school he went to. Now she could just go to his dorm but by time she got there he would probably be gone, and confronting him at his dorm would have been a bit too forward.
Shutaura then walked into her living room and turned on the laptop she had plugged into the wall to charge the previous night. She then pulled up the student database and found the information about Kamijou Touma that she needed.
Now knowing her destination, Shutaura looked at a clock hanging on her wall which read 6:52.
"Well I've got some time. I don't need to leave right now." said Shutaura to herself.
She then picked up her phone and made a call.
"Yeah, I won't be in today. I have somethings to take care of."
"….."
"Yeah, just do the normal training and make sure everyone is ready just in case we get a call."
"….."
"Yeah, bye." said Shutaura, hanging up.
"Well, it's 0430 so I better get going. I don't know what I'm going to say to him once I find him, but I'll figure that out on the way." said Shutaura as she walked out the door.
Back at the present time, Shutaura was deciding what she should now do.
"Well, I could go to his dorm and see if he's there. He may be out sick or something," said Shutaura to herself. "But I doubt that. The girl standing at the front of his class seemed to be his teacher and said that she didn't know where he was. If he was sick he would have called in and told someone."
Academy City was a fairly big city. While only a third the size of Tokyo, it was still a large city.
'Well I could just search the entire city but that would take too long. And I don't that he would need to go to the warehouse district or the mountainous area, so he's probably still in District 7.' thought Shutaura.
"Well I have to start somewhere so let's get started."
"Mother!" a young woman bellowed as she forcefully opened the door to the room her mother current resided in.
"What is it? And you didn't have to basically kick the door down you know." replied the mother.
"Is it true?! Is it true that you sent her to Academy City?"
"Why, yes it is."
"Tell me why mother."
"Well…to be honest, I sent her there for you."
"What do you mean you sent her there for me? What I do have to do with anything?"
"Well, you've rejected every fiancé` that has been presented to you, so I sent Villain and William to find that boy, Touma Kamijou." Replied Queen Elizard
"What! You interfere in my life and intend for me to marry that boy?!" exploded Carissa. "He's not even nobility. I wouldn't be able to marry him anyways."
"True, but he has shown himself to be brave, courageous and strong. All the qualities of a knight. And that's why I sent Villain. She is to offer him a position of knighthood. If he accepts, tent he could marry into the royal family."
"And what makes you think I would even want to marry him to begin with? What makes you think that I won't reject him just like all the others?"
"I don't think you will," said the Queen with a smirk on her face. "You hold the attribute of Military Might. You appreciate strength, and you saw he strength and resolve firsthand. I bet that won the boy a lot of points with you."
Carissa couldn't say anything. She did hold the attribute of Military Might and did value strength and force of will. And she had seen all of that in that boy.
"And let's not forget," said the Queen. "He is the holder of the Imagine Break. It would be a major coup for us to have him married into the royal family. He alone would significantly increase as military might against other magical nations."
Carissa stood there and thought for a moment.
'Everything that mother is saying is true. Having Imagine Breaker on our side would increase our power, and he has shown to be extremely loyal to his friends and whoever he deems on his side.'
"Well mother, I agree with everything that your say. But why didn't you just send me to Academy City to find the boy?"
"Well two reasons. One, you don't really excel at matters of the heart. That is more Villain's domain. Two, you are still of house arrest for attempting a coup d'état again me."
"Your still on about that mother? That was months ago. When are you going to let that go?" asked Carissa as she turned around and walked out of the room.
"Just be lucky I let you out of the prison!" yelled the Queen after her daughter.
Walking down the hallway back to her room, a thought popped into Carissa's head. She was standing at a alter wearing a white wedding dress, and next to her stood the Imagine Breaker boy, in a black tux and bow tie.
"I guess that wouldn't be too bad." Said Carissa to herself and a small smirk appeared on her face.
"Ahhhchooo!"
"Are you ok Princess Villain? Are you getting sick?" asked the driver.
"No, I'm fine. It's just…I feel as if someone is taking about me." replied Villain.
Kongou Mitsuko was currently trapped in an alley with three thugs, one of them out cold on the ground. The main threat to her was the ice user who could freeze her solid if she wasn't careful. While she was a level above the boy, for her ejection points to work, she needed something to use them on. She could use her powers on the wall behind her, but it would rip the wall out and possible bring the building down on top of them.
She could use her powers on herself and propel herself at the boy, hoping to crash into him and knock him out. But there was still the other boy, and she didn't know if he had an ability or not. And the ice user could do something like create a wall of ice, causing her to crush herself against it.
'Well I have to do something. They've already seen my ability so they will be on guard against it. There is still a trash can over in one of the corners but I doubt that they'll let me get to it to use my powers.' thought Kongou.
Hoping against hope that she could possible inch her way over to the trash can so she can at least have something to defend herself with, there was then a yell of "SUCH MISFORTUNE!" reverberating through the back alleys of Academy City.
All three of them stopped what they were doing and looked around, trying to figure out where the yell came from.
Suddenly, a boy appeared in the entrance of the alley they were in. He had black spikey hair, and was wearing a white button up shirt and black pants. He was doubled over and breathing hard as if he had run a marathon and seemed tired.
"Whew…I glad I lost them. First I get attacked by a pack of dogs, and while running away from them I bump into this gang of thugs, causing the leader to spill his drink on his girlfriend. And on top of all that, the spilled drink causes the girls shirt to become see through, and the leader blames me and accuses me of doing it on purpose to ogle his girl!" yelled out the spikey haired boy while holding his head in anguish.
That's when the boy turned around and seemed to notice that there were other people in the alley with him. Freezing on the spot, the boy just stared at the group, while they continued to also stare at him.
Thinking that the boy could help her, or at least provide a distraction so that she could use her powers on the two remaining boys.
Seeing the look of fear on the girls face and the threatening posture of the two boys, Touma assessed the situation immediately.
Gaining a serious look on his face, and a whole new demeanor, Touma slowly approached the two boys.
"Hey, just what do you think you are doing to the girl. She obviously looks scared of you two and doesn't want to be here."
"Don't worry about what we're doing. Just go on and get out of here before you get hurt!" said the least threatening looking of the two boys.
The boy the rushed at Touma with his fist raised, in what must have been an attempt to knock him out.
Touma easily dodged the first swing and dodged the second swing. Touma then caught the boy in the stomach with a hard left. This caused the boy to halt his advance and the pain coursed through him. Taking advance of the boy not moving, Touma swung his right fist and connected with the right side of the boy's face. This brought the boy down to one knee. Touma then quickly ran up and kneed the boy in the chin, sending him flying 18 inches away and landing with a thud, out cold.
Seeing that, Kongou began to have hope that with this boy's help, she could get out of this. But there was still the leader who was a level three. She didn't know what this boys level was, but she hoped that it was high enough to help.
"You son of a bitch! How dare you get in my way!" yelled remaining boy.
He turned toward Touma with his hand raised and palm out.
"Watch out! He has ice powers!" yelled out Kongou to warn the spikey haired boy.
"Too late!" yelled the thug as he fired his ability at Touma.
Touma suddenly felt the area around his body turn very cold. Sensing danger, Touma threw his body to the left and against a wall. As soon as he did that, the spot where he just was, turn completely into a solid chuck of ice.
"He's a level three. His ability allows him to super cool the moisture in the air, flash freezing it!" yelled out Kongou.
'So he can't actually fire ice at me. He can just lower the temperature of the air in the spot I'm at,' thought Touma to himself. 'But I don't know the extent of his powers. He might be able to flash freeze this entire alley.'
Coming out of his own thoughts, Touma rushed the boy with his fist raised.
Not expecting this, the thug took a step back in panic. He quickly raised his palm and released his ability.
Touma, sensing danger once again, did a forward roll just as the wall he was against was frozen solid.
Since it was an alley and thus a small enclosed space, Touma reached the thug in four steps. Bring his fist forward, Touma connected with the thug's face. The blow caused the thug to take a few steps back, however he quickly recovered.
Raising his hand once again the thug attempted to use his ability on an approaching Touma. Touma quickly side stepped to the left, throwing off the thugs aim. Nearing the thug again, Touma this time connected with a left hook to the stomach. This caused the thug some discomfort, but he didn't double over like the other guy. It was safe to say that he was a bit more muscular then the other boy and could take a punch better.
"You've got some pretty good moves" admitted the thug.
"Thanks" replied Touma.
"What level are you anyways?"
"I'm just a level zero."
"A level zero! And you tried to take on a level three?
"So what if I'm a level zero. That doesn't mean I can just ignore someone who needs help!" declared Touma.
"Well killing you with my powers would be too easy, and you seem to have some pretty good moves, so if it's a fist fight you want, it's a fist fight you'll get, you bastard." declared the thug as he squared up against Touma in his ready position.
Touma once again rushed at the boy, but this time he was ready. Touma threw a right jab towards the boy's face, but the thug ducked under his fist. The thug then threw his own right, catching Touma in the stomach. Feeling the pain from the blow, Touma threw a left hook, catching the thug on the jaw. Recovering from the blow, the thug swung with his right towards Touma's face, but Touma moved his head to the left, causing the blow to miss.
The thug then tried a leg sweep move that nearly took Touma down. Even though Touma did not go down, the move put him off balance and that was all the opening the thug needed. Rushing at Touma while he was still off balance, the thug threw a left, catching Touma in the jaw and a right, catching him in the stomach.
This two hit combo brought Touma down to one knee. Seeing the end of the fight, the thug tried to perform a knee lift and strike Touma in the chin. Touma saw the move coming, because it's what he would have done in the same situation, and rolled to the side.
The thug's knee hit nothing but air. Touma quickly got to his feet and went on the attack again. His fist connected with the side of the thug's face, causing him to stumble to the side a bit.
The thug then wiped a bit of blood from his lip, turned, and faced Touma. The two boys ran at each other with their fist raised.
The two boys continued to swing their fist at each other in an attempt to knock the other one out. While Touma had a slight advantage, it was enough to finish the fight.
After dodging Touma's last attack the thug spoke; "I'm sick of this! I'll just finish this now!"
The boy then raised both of his palms, and pointed them both at Touma.
"I usually only have a range of about 7 meters with my ability, but that'll be enough. In such an enclosed space, it will be enough to freeze half of the alley. You won't be able to dodge this!"
Touma suddenly felt the air around him becoming colder and colder. He knew the attack was coming and that he couldn't dodge it. Just as he was about raise Imagine Break to stop the attack, he heard something.
There was a loud clacking sound. The thug boy when ridged, his eyes rolled into the back of his head and then he collapsed on the ground.
Touma surprised by what just happen, just stared at the boy on the ground. Touma then lifted his head as he heard someone speaking.
"Humph…well that takes care of that!" said the middle school girl that was the reason for the entire incident.
To be honest, Touma was so caught up in the fight that he had forgotten about her.
Kongou Mitsuko just stood there, dusting off her hand, and standing triumphed.
AFTERWORD
Well, that the end of that chapter. I hope everyone enjoyed it. That probably wasn't the ending that everyone was expecting, but that's what makes doing this so much fun. Betraying everyone's expectation.
So what did everyone think of this chapter? I wanted to continue with other character that are usually out of focus in the main story.
So next chapter we will probably get back to some of the main characters and fights. I don't really know yet. Maybe we should continue with some of the more out of focus characters next chapter too. Y'all let me know.
And as always, rate and review.
