First off MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone, what would be a better occasion to upload a chapter? I wanted to talk about my other fanfic (THE Beginning Of THE END) it looks like I have fallen pretty far behind in that. With respect to the LN,
but there is a scenario that is absolutely amazing which I thought about about a year ago that I just HAVE to share with the world! So I will continue to write it, I might hurry it up a little bit though to catch up.
COMMENT SECTION:
ChancePluto: Thanks man!
linkjames24: Rawr! Actually ear bite can be painful... Although if it's done by Othinus, how can Touma not enjoy it...hehe!
Sergio644: Yup you are behind. You or rather every Index fan should be up to date! And ofcourse I'll continue the story.
Schwarzer: Wow that was a very interesting way to put it! I sort of agree a bit. And wait till the end of this chapter hehe. Also you're right I have rushed a bit, but it was all for this point of time. Now the story will go in more detailed way.
Without further due let's GOOO!
...
The named Kamijo Touma woke up and was greeted with a unfamiliar blue ceiling.
"..." He pushed aside the blanket which was half covering from one side and got up. "Where am I?"
Last time he was strolling in the middle of nowhere with Othinus.
"Maybe I got unconscious somehow and she carried me home?...Wait!" Touma suddenly remembered a bit how he had lost consciousness. "Ok let's go outside"
He jumped out of bed and rushed out of room fully aware that he had to figure out the layout of the new house.
Fortunately his troubles were reduced as the new home was much smaller than the previous one.
"Oh you are awake! Good morning Touma" Othinus greeted him from the kitchen.
She was wearing a light pinkish apron over a blue dress.
"Oh thank goodness Othinus, You are okay" Touma suddenly rushed towards her and hugged her.
"Waaaa! This is too sudden. I mean not that I am complaining but I thought you were the one who preferred slow starters. Oh well" Othinus started muttering incoherently.
"Why did you try to suddenly use your power like that. Didn't you say that it was dangerous for you to use your powers for a while? I thought I was gonna lose you" Touma ranted
Othinus smiled at this. She was genuinely happy. "I just couldn't look that expression on your face. You were not comfortable in that empty world. I know you were forcing yourself for my sake"
"What are you talking about, I was..." Othinus stopped him from speaking further by putting her finger on his lips.
"So I decided to erase your anxiety by making a new world for you. Afterall I am your goddess" She winked at him.
"Wait you mean!" Touma quickly rushed towards the main door and flung it open.
There.
There was no longer the dark emptiness of the lost World. Instead,
Dazzling Sunlight hit him on the face.
He was back in Academy City.
Blue sky as far as the eye could see. Tall buildings, wide well planned roads with greenery on the side. More importantly above all! The daily chatter of students going to school along the road, office workers hurrying for work, the bells of icecream vendors, chirping sounds of birds, announcements being made from loudspeakers...All these were pretty normal things for everyday life and were left ignored by common people.
But,
It was something that meant a lot for the boy named Touma Kamijo. A Boy Who Had Been 'Stranded Alone At The End Of The World'. To get to experience this sort of feeling, you have to first experience the End Of The World with your own eyes then you will be able to see these things in the same light as he was doing right now.
Othinus silently stepped out and walked to his side. She lifted her hand and gently wiped off the line tear that had appeared from his right eye.
"Oh... This... This means a lot. Thank you Othinus, I really mean it" He sobbed a little as Othinus pulled his head down to her chest.
"It is okay to cry sometimes. Ofcourse I would do anything to make you happy afterall you are the only one I care about" She gently caressed his head "Touma... Sorry but because I was only at 50% Magic God state, I couldn't make everything right...A lot of things in this world will be different from your world"
"It's ok, I can live with that as long as I have you" Touma slowly wiped his tears.
They both looked at scenery until...
"Touma I know you are happy and all, but don't you have to go to school today?" Othinus suddenly remembered
"...Um...!?..." Touma looked at her with confused eyes however and the reality began to dawn for him several sweat drops started forming on his face "...!Whaaa! I totally forgot! Or rather I didn't even consider this! What time it is? Crap I am gonna be late! My attendance Oh Noooooo! Othinus, I am going for bath please would you pack my lunch as I expect you made something earlier right?" Touma rushed towards the bathroom with lightning speed.
Meanwhile Othinus giggled as she watched Touma.
"Okay I am ready, my lunch"
"Here, and here is your breakfast"
"Don't have time for it" Touma hurriedly "I'll eat it on the way to school" He quickly snatched the bread from her and hurried out of the house.
Running while having food in mouth might be considered as bad manners by some but right now who cares!
He had no choice, his breakfast will be done while running. If there were no interruptions...
If...
BAM!
Suddenly he collided with someone at a blind end.
"Oww... Sorry um..." He had bumped into someone and fallen to his side so he looked up "Are you ok 'Miss'?" He asked the girl who had fallen.
"Ah...Huh?" The said girl suddenly looked up on hearing his voice "I had heard about the saying that history repeats itself but now I believe it!"
"Um..."
"Hehe is this my lucky day!?"
"It seems you are fine. Sorry I am getting late, I have to go now. Bye!" Touma picked up his bag and ran off.
"A almost perfect repeat of events! What is this? Is this some sign? Will my time with him start again? Oh! His phone did he drop it this time too?" The girl started frantically looking here and there.
To her relief there was no phone there.
'So he didn't lose it this time' She sighed with relief.
"Queen are you alright? Seriously that barbarian! He bumped into you and then ran off!" A girl also wearing Tokiwodai uniform rushed to the fallen girl's side and with several other girls all in uniform.
"Should we track him down? We'll make him apologize properly" Another girl spoke up.
"No it's alright" The 'Queen' spoke silently.
"Why? Who was he, is he someone who is acquainted with you Queen?" This time a girl short girl asked.
"Yes he...Is someone very special" The 'Queen' smiled and turned back to continue walking before any of the girls ask anymore questions. "I hope I would get to meet you again soon. My Prince" She muttered very softly. There was both excitement and a bit of sadness in her voice but she had said it so softly that no one heard her.
"Hah hah! Finally made it!" Touma
"You are late Kamijo" Suddenly his P.E teacher's voice came into his ears.
"Ah! But.."
"We can listen to the excuses afterwards. Right now it's punishment time! Run 5 laps of the school grounds and you will be doing today's cleaning duty of your class"
"Whaaatt! Such rotten luck!" A loud yell could be heard in all the school.
"Well students looks like Mr. Kamijo has finally arrived" In his classroom his homeroom teacher Ms. Komoe spoke.
"Hah... Seriously he made me run 5 laps. Hadn't I already run enough on my way to school? My legs are starting to ache from all that running around" Kamijo groaned as he opened the classroom door.
"You're late Mr. Kamijo" His homeroom teacher Tsukiyome Komoe spoke up.
"I know I am sorry, I overslept and while on my way here bumped into a girl" He informed
"Oh my did you apologize to her properly?"
"I was in a hurry so I just asked if she was ok" Touma scratched his cheek.
"My my you should do that Kamijo. You should act more like a gentleman. You were going to be late anyways. I don't remember teaching you to behave like this. This is unacceptable for someone who is my student! As a punishment you will be clearing the weeds off the lawn in the back of the store room" Komoe gave him a radiant smile.
"But I was just given cleaning duty as punishment"
"Sorry Kamijo but I have to give some punishment as your teacher. Oh God! How will I be able to forgive myself if Kamijo grows up to become a delinquent!" His teacher because exasperated and held her head with both her tiny hands.
"Haah...Such misfortune! What a day..Tsk hehe" Although normally Touma would have be a bit more upset about today's turn of events but he wasn't. This little misadventure had eased his heart that he was back in the world of familiar faces.
"Also what's with the winter clothes?" She suddenly asked a very genuine question.
"Um..." The 'Un'Lucky boy named Touma Kamijo looked around to see all the classmates in summer clothes. He this looked on the board it said July 15. 'No wonder I was feeling so hot' Touma pondered while looking towards Komoe. "I guess I just forgot in hurry.. hehe"
"Geez seriously Kamijo! If you want to make excuses atleast make proper ones that I could believe like 'My summer clothes were dirty or something', someone like that" Komoe face-palmed.
"Ughhh" Kamijo groaned as the class laughed.
"Now go sit down" Komoe instructed.
"Yes Mam!" Touma quickly retreated in order to avoid any more embarrassment.
"Also don't forget to properly apologise to that girl when you next see her" Komoe instructed
"Yeah I will..." He began to sit on his chair "Huh!? What did she look like again? I think I had seen her before too somewhere...But I can't remember her appearance at all! She seemed familiar...Ah! Whatever I'll know when she comes face to face next time. But still this is weird"
The homeroom ended and soon it was time for lunch break.
"Oye Kami-yan you not coming to grab some bread?" His 'friend' Tsuchimikado Motharu called out to him.
"Nah, I have brought lunch today" Touma raised a hand in denial.
"Huh!? I thought you were late because you woke up late. So how did you prepare lunch for you? Don't tell me someone else did that for you. Come on spill it Kami-yan" Tsuchimikado nudged him.
"You know he has got a point there Kamijo. If you had so much time that you prepared yourself lunch, then you should try and get on time to school" Fukiyose Seiri, Kamijo's classmate spoke up.
Tsuchimikado mentally face-palmed himself at this comment.
"Anyways I am going to buy some bread, meanwhile you enjoy your 'Special' lunch Kami-yan" Tsuchimikado added before leaving.
"Well Kamijo what are you upto nowadays? You have been coming school late more often" Fukiyose inquired
'Really? Othinus said she did make this world close to original. And this date is a few days before I lost my memories, so was I always like that. This is depressing... Atleast my attendance is alright' Kamijo pondered.
"..ye...Oye Kamijo? Earth to Kamijo. You with me or not?" Fukiyose called him while he was lost in thoughts.
"Ah! Yes, well I was just awake late at night so I couldn't wake up on time" Touma lied.
"Why are you not able to sleep in time?" Fukiyose inquired
"Erm... You know just studying for the tests what else..." He tried to play it off.
"I think I agree with Ms. Komoe now you need to come up with better believable lies" Fukiyose sighed
"What an impression I have in the class... When I say I was studying, I am said to come up with better lies..." Touma showed a pained expression.
"Well duh. It's hard to believe, I mean tests are far away. Even I am not studying right now. Well our summer breaks have been shortened to complete our course but still. You late night studying? Still unbelievable" Fukiyose declared.
"I don't know whether that comment was meant to cheer me up or depress me even more" Kamijo groaned.
"Is anything troubling you? You can always tell me. It's always better to share your problems with a friend" Fukiyose gave a concerned look.
"No everything is fine. Thanks for worrying about me" Touma gave a bright smile.
"Anyways you should start your lunch, break time is passing by" Fukiyose commented.
"Yeah" Touma opened his lunch. "Hey haven't you brought anything in lunch Fukiyose?" He asked
"Haha no instead I have this!" She shoves a bread packet right in front of his face.
"Let's see... Ability boosting bread with all the vital nutrients. Eat and be the best you can be. Seriously!?" Touma spoke
"I am eating healthy food" Fukiyose said proudly.
"But that's not complete food, you have got to have something else too. Here have some of my lunch too" Touma offered
"No no I am on a diet plan" Fukiyose refused
"Come on just eat it. This much isn't gonna make you fat" Touma said
"Hmph obviously I won't become fat. But...Ah! Alright I'll have some" Fukiyose stammered "Hmm! It's good! I am surprised, I didn't know you know to cook so well" Fukiyose's eyes widened as she tasted the rice and other things Touma had brought.
"Really? Hmm... Really it's good. Actually I didn..." Touma started
"Oya oya oya! Having some quality time in my absence are we?" Tsuchimikado entered the classroom.
"Tsuchimikado..." Touma narrowed his eyes.
"Kami-yan I know you what you are about to say. 'Don't interrupt us!'. Yeah yeah I understand I walked in at the wrong time" Tsuchimikado have an understanding look.
This earned him a punch at the back of his head by Fukiyose.
"I am not giving you any so don't even bother trying" Touma shielded his tiffin from Tsuchimikado.
"Yeah yeah it is after all reserved for girls" Tsuchimikado raised his hands in air.
"Not this again... Seriously you guys both of you always give me such a hard time. Speaking of which where is Aogami today?" Touma asked Motharu.
"Um... Sorry who?" Tsuchimikado had a confused look.
"Aogami who else. That blue haired pervert who always says cat-eared girls are the best" Touma said
"What!? Nonsense! Everyone knows little sister Maid types are the best!" Motharu argued strongly.
"Seriously you still at it?" Kamijo groaned
"What are you talking about Kamijo? Who is this Aogami person?" Fukiyose asked
"Not you too! Aogami the class representative remember?" Kamijo replied
"What are you saying? I am the class representative" Fukiyose argued
"Whaa..." Touma stopped. Clearly she wasn't lying. This wasn't a prank. He could sense in her eyes that she was telling the truth.
But somewhere something was wrong. 'Now that I think about it a majority of faces in this class are new, I don't remember them being in my class. This can't be normal unless...Wait! Could it be!'
"Looks like lack of sleep is having effect on you Kami-yan" Tsuchimikado laughed.
"Since when have you been listening outside?" Touma tried to regain his composure. 'This only means one thing'
''Who knows? Maybe a while haha" Tsuchimikado joked
"Haah probably you are right. I should sleep better, I am starting to have dillusions" Touma said maintaining his composure. 'I am sure it's that. But still I have to confirm this'
"Well the saying to go early to bed is not just for show" Fukiyose commented
"Yeah I'll keep that in mind" Touma assured. 'This means when Othinus said that she couldn't accurately make the world because of her 50% Magic God status meant that in this world many people are missing!'
"Well there goes the bell. Lunch time is over. You better hurry up and finish your lunch Kami-yan" Tsuchimikado said while going towards his seat.
"Yeah yeah" Touma said while eating. 'But how many people were erased? What about other things? I need to talk to Othinus about this' Touma made a mental note for later.
"Ughhh... I forgot I got cleaning duty as punishment today. Just when I was thinking about getting home early" Touma sighed. The school was already over, everyone else had left but he was struck on cleaning duty.
"Can't be helped. You've got to perform your duties seriously" Fukiyose entered the classroom.
"What are you doing here Fukiyose?" Touma asked
"Well today was supposed to my turn but I got unexpected help because a certain somebody got to school late and made the teachers angry" Fukiyose explained
"Just my luck" He sighed again.
"Seriously stop cursing your luck. We should do our work without complaints, I mean we are here anyways. Why not just do it happily?" Fukiyose raised a fist in the air.
Touma had no counter argument for that so they began cleaning the classroom. It was over pretty quickly thanks to an extra pair of helping hands.
"Wow that was quick!" Touma said happily.
"Well we can finish faster if more number of hands are involved" Fukiyose commented.
"With this now I can finally go home!" Touma sighed
"Wait, aren't you forgetting something?" Fukiyose addressed the boy.
"What?"
"You are supposed to do weeding of the lawn at the back of the storeroom" Fukiyose reminded him that he still had work to do.
"Oh! Crap!"
"Oh man this'll take all day!" Kamijo groaned as he reached the lawn.
"Well what's done is to be done" Fukiyose said while putting her bag down against the wall. "Let's go"
"Wait weren't you supposed to clean only the classroom? I was given this punishment alone" Touma asked
"True, but I am helping. I can't let you do it alone after you helped in cleaning the classroom" Fukiyose told him with a smile.
"But.."
"No Buts!" Fukiyose interrupted "Besides the more people, the faster it will be done" She got down to work.
Touma couldn't argue against that logic.
"You know you can be really nice sometimes" Touma commented
"Huh!?" Fukiyose was taken aback by the sudden compliment. "A..Ah this is nothing just paying you back for your help. Besides it's the duty of a Class-Rep to help the fellow classmates" She stammered
Obviously Touma was too busy with his work to notice a faint blush on her cheeks.
After an hour or so of continuous weeding,
"Hah! Finally it's all done" Touma sighed with relief. "Thank you Fukiyose"
"See told you, it'll be a lot faster this way" Fukiyose huffed.
"Well let's go home" Touma said picking up his bag.
They left the school campus and began walking.
"Let's go to the station together, our dorms are in the same area" Fukiyose suggested
"Um yeah" Touma replied 'Come to think of it I didn't knew where most of my friends lived in the previous world'.
They continued walking.
"Hey do you want to grab something from the supermarket?" Fukiyose asked
"I don't know... I usually go when there are big sales. It saves a lot of money" Touma replied
"Hmm... Me too. Lately my budget is tight" Fukiyose said
"Us Level Zeroes have to spend carefully, we don't exactly get a decent amount of money. If it wasn't for these sales I don't know what I could have done" Touma scratched his cheek. 'Wow I am having a normal conversation with someone after so long time, I kinda feel happy about just talking about it'.
"Haha that's true" Fukiyose laughed
"Besides, I don't even know currently what are the leftovers in my fridge. I mean it was Othi... I mean I was in such a hurry this morning, I didn't bother to look properly what was in there" Touma quickly corrected his mistake and smoothly tried to play it off. 'Crap it it almost just slip from my mouth!'.
"Hey you clearly were about to say something else and now you suddenly changed your sentence. Geez what are you hiding from me Kamijo?" Fukiyose asked irritatingly.
"N..Nothing my tongue slipped that's all" Touma clarified. 'I can't exactly tell her that currently there is a girl living with me. I know what a mess it will be...
{:- "Touma you live together with her! This is clearly against the rules! Not to mention the morals!"
"Shut up insect, I can live wherever I want. A lowly human doesn't get to order me around"
"What!? How arrogant! What do you think you are some sort of princess or something?"
"A princess is too low for my standards, I can keep them under my foot. Don't worry I can make you a maid or maybe make you incharge of the stables or something. Although I wouldn't not even prefer to spit on you"
"YOU! Are you asking for a fight?"
"Hoho! A worm is challenging me to a fight! Then start. If you even manage to touch me once, your name will be passed down in legends"}
'Probably something along those lines' Touma sweat-dropped as he had a vivid imagination.
"Kamijo you act really suspiciously nowadays. Don't tell me Ms. Komoe was right! You are becoming a delinquent!" Fukiyose suddenly raised her voice.
"No no you have got I all wrong!" Kamijo waved his hands in denial. "Huh?"
Touma suddenly looked past the street. Fukiyose followed his gaze and looked at the same direction.
"Hey sweetie are you free? Why don't you hang out with us?"
"Yeah totally, we know a super cool place. We'll have lots of fun"
Two guys were hitting on a girl and she was clearly not happy about it. She had long dark brown hair and looked the same age as Touma.
'Seriously!? This again..I guess somethings never change. So does what I got to do about it' Touma said to himself internally.
"Looks like they are bothering the girl. I'll just go and talk some sense into them. You..." Fukiyose stopped to discover that Kamijo was 'missing' from his previous spot.
"Oh there you are, I've been looking for your all over the place. Seriously you certainly know how to make me worry" Kamijo spoke to the girl.
"Huh..." Fukiyose let out as she made a somewhat disgusted face.
"Anyways it's getting late, let's go" Touma said cheerfully.
"Umm...Who are you?" The girl said flatly.
"What are you saying Yuki? I am sorry that I am late, but atleast don't joke like this" Touma said trying to salvage the situation.
"First off my name is not Yuki it's Mizuki and secondly who are you?" Touma sweat-dropped as Mizuki closed off all routes to diffuse the situation.
"Seriously!? I was trying to help you dummy!" Touma practically yelled at the girl.
"Oye you trying to be smart with us eh?" One of the boy said to Touma.
"Stop harrassing her, she clearly doesn't want to go with you" Touma said firmly.
"Now you'd tell us what to do? Hey guys come here, I think we've got ourselves a Hero here" The other one spoke.
A bunch of boys all looking like delinquents approached. They were 4 in number and 2 were already there, that makes 6.
'It's not wise to take on them all here. And I've got to ensure the safety of that girl, not to mention Fukiyose is also here' He glanced at her briefly. 'So the best course of action is obviously...'
"Oye baboon face, you should pick someone who can accommodate with your face. I know it might take very long, but I believe you'll eventually get someone... probably" Touma ridiculed the delinquent who had called the others. 'This will definitely set him off'.
"Y...YOU! YOU'RE A DEAD MAN!" The delinquent yelled.
'Yup ofcourse I have an ability to set people off!' Touma internally cursed himself.
"Oh ho!? But can you catch me?" Before the thug could understand, Touma suddenly turned and ran with great speed.
"Ha! Get him boys! Don't let him get away!" The thug or delinquent leader yelled.
All the boys began pursuit of Touma Kamijo, without realising that they had completely played into his hand. His main aim was to get them away from the girl.
"Well that was something new, I didn't knew Kamijo was like that" Fukiyose spoke to herself but her voice was heard my Mizuki.
She had never expected Kamijo to be like that. She had an impression of him as a lazy yet honest person who always put the blame of his failure on his luck instead of working hard to improve.
"Um.. I am sorry, it's my fault. I didn't knew he was trying to help me" Mizuki apologized to Fukiyose.
"Ah no, his method was very weird. It's not your fault. Even I would have been confused if it was me" Fukiyose said
"Will he be okay? They looked quite angry" Mizuki sounded worried.
"Hmm... I am a bit worried too. Don't worry I'll check, I don't think he would get caught that easily" Fukiyose said with some confidence.
"Hah hah! Wait seriously a dead end! Such rotten luck" Touma yelled
Touma had run haphazardly to lose his pursuers but with his luck, he had been cornered.
"W... Wait y...y...you...hah...hah ... Damm..you certainly made us run a lot! Now it's payback time"
'Looks like I've got no choice' Touma prepared himself. "Bring it on then"
The first delinquent approached him and quickly threw a punch. Touma ducked quickly and evaded. He grabbed the overstretched arm and spun around to throw the opponent on the hard concrete with sufficient force to knock him out.
"Looks like he has got some skills. Everyone attack together" The leader shouted.
The remaining 5 pounced at him at once. He evaded the first wave by sidestepping. By his sheer luck (as ironic as it sounds) his foot accidentally got entangled with one of the delinquents and he fell straight on the concrete wall. His head or rather face collided the wall with a speed that would be called... Painful.
Thus the second guy was out of commission. Now there were only 4 of then remaining.
"Everyone stop, or I am calling judgement" Suddenly Fukiyose entered the scene.
"Why did you come here!? Are you stupid?" Kamijo yelled
"So you've already got one and there you were hunting for more..." The leader grinned.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Kamijo yelled again this time out of embarrassment.
"You guys should leave. NOW!" Fukiyose said sternly.
"And what would you do? Call judgement? Hah! Don't make me laugh till those tortoises arrive we'll be done with you" The leader mocked.
"Fukiyose why did you follow me? I was trying to get them away from you both" Touma yelled
"Shut up! It's your fault for being reckless, I was worried if you got away or not" Fukiyose yelled back.
"I am getting bored of this lovers-quarrel. You two come with me we'll handle him, you go get the girl" The leader ordered.
The three of them pounced towards Touma and one towards Fukiyose.
BAM! A powerful uppercut collided with the jaw of a delinquents which sent him flying backwards.
The rest two continued to attack Touma. However Fukiyose was not faring so well.
Although she was known as the Iron Wall Girl, but she wasn't accustomed to actually combat. In the class it was mostly her dishing out punishment while the others didn't fight back.
But here the situation was different, she had to defend herself from someone who had experience in actual daily combat.
She barely dodged the initial attack, but she tripped and fell on the ground.
The attacker then pinned her down, but she punched the attacker on the face causing him to lose his balance and he fell down.
Fukiyose quickly stood up and made some distance between them.
"Oww... That hurt! You'll pay for this!" He growled
Before she could react, he suddenly pounced towards her and tackled her hard which caused her to fell off.
A hard kick collided right on her face.
"AHHHH" She screamed as she covered her face.
"Fukiyose!" Touma yelled with both rage and worry.
"Yeah take that! And take this" He kicked her stomach.
"AHHH" She screamed again this time clutching her stomach.
"YOU!"
"!?" This time the sound was very near so the attacker quickly spun around.
BAAAAMMM! A super hard punch collided with his jaw, a creaking sound could be heard.
"STAY AWAY FROM HER!" Touma blasted a powerful punch full of Rage.
The receiver was thrown into the air and crashed into the wall behind.
"Fukiyose! Fukiyose! Are you alright?" Touma quickly picked her up.
"Y...yeah I'm alright. It's okay" Fukiyose grimaced
"But he hit you pretty hard" Touma said
"It's ok now, it doesn't hurt that bad" She weakly tried to get up. And there she saw.
The Leader who Touma had knocked down was slowly getting up with a knife in his hand, he slowly approached.
"TOUMA!" She yelled to warn him. But it was too late, the knife slashed his back.
"Owww!" Touma yelled and fell forwards.
"Taste that! Now prepare to die!" The Leader yelled maniacally.
Fukiyose was in a trance, Touma who had saved him was slashed with a knife and his life was in danger. She wanted to save him. She didn't want the one to be always saved, but her feet they were frozen. Not moving at all, but she didn't had the luxury of sitting around.
'Come on body move! Move! Please move! He is in danger, MOOOVVEEE!'
Suddenly her mind felt light, her feet moved with lightening speed. She pounced forward like a leaping panther. The Leader's feet was plucked off the ground as she tackled him. As they hit the ground, the Leader's head collided with the ground and he lost consciousness.
"Hah hah Kamijo are you okay?" Fukiyose hurried over to Touma.
Touma got up without effort.
"Oww... I'm fine, just a scratch" Touma waved his hand to dismiss her worries.
"Let me see" She insisted
"Like I...Ow ow! Hey it stings!" He grimaced
As she touched his back her hands were dyed with blood.
"No! That's a lot of blood for a scratch, we need to go to hospital quickly!" Fukiyose said in a worried yet stern tone.
"Like I said it's just a scratch, we don't need to..."
"Hah hah...Hey you guys ok? W... what's this! All this blood!" Mizuki suddenly screamed as soon as she arrived.
"That's what I am telling. I won't listen to anything let's go to the hospital" Fukiyose practically dragged Kamijo away.
"I just informed judgement, they'll arrive soon. Let's go to the hospital" Mizuki informed
"Such Misfortune" Touma groaned
"Here, I've all patched you up don't overdo yourself otherwise the wound might open again. Who am I talking to... well you do have a habit of visiting us frequently so what can I say..." The frog faced doctor sighed.
"Kamijo what is this am I hearing?" Fukiyose narrowed her eyes.
She had just witnessed a side of Touma Kamijo which she hadn't had known about. And she had her suspicions that there was a lot more to it than he had been letting on. And the doctor's statement just verified that.
"Sorry, it's all because of me. Because I couldn't understand that you were trying to help me, you ended up in this situation" Mizuki sobbed a little.
"Ah! It's okay there is no need to apologise. All is well that ends well. And besides didn't I say it, it's just a scratch" Kamijo smiled
"Really you are a weird person, but in a very nice way" Mizuki blushed a little. If one looked properly she was really pretty.
'I agree with that statement' Fukiyose smiled
"It's okay I'll go by my own, it's gonna be curfew soon you both should go home quickly" Touma waved goodbye to the girls.
"Ok bye Kamijo" Fukiyose waved
"I hope we meet again soon" Mizuki also waved goodbye.
Touma reached his home and went inside.
"Welcome back!" Othinus cheerfully welcomed him.
"Wow that's a nice dress" Touma complimented her.
She was wearing a one-piece dress with was dark pink in colour whose skirt reached halfway to her thighs.
"Thanks for the compliment" Othinus blushed
"Hah! Man I am starving" Touma rubbed his stomach.
"Hehe the dinner is ready. Come..." She pushed him forward.
"Owww... " He squeaked
"Touma! What happened?" Othinus was suddenly worried.
"It's nothing" Touma bluffed
"No, show me. Get your shirt off" Othinus pulled his shirt away. "What is this!" Her eye widened as she saw his bandaged back.
"Ah nothing I just had a little squabble" Touma tried to diffuse the situation.
"Tell me all about it NOW! And in detail" Othinus was suddenly in very serious mode.
Touma had no choice but to tell her. He could not lie to her as she would quickly catch him if he was lying. That was one drawback of having someone who understands you.
"...and then we visited the hospital. It's ok everything is alright now. I took care of them all" Touma assured
"I see. Hah! Seriously you attract trouble everywhere. Come now you should eat, I have put extra effort in the dinner. You better appreciate it" Othinus said
"Okay I am starving anyways, thank you for the food!" Touma said before starting to eat.
As expected the food was really good.
"Look at you... eating like such a baby" Othinus giggled. "Now for the sweet dish..." She opened the fridge.
"What happened?" Touma asked
"Looks like I went a bit overboard, the fridge is empty. Oh well, I'll just go and buy more" Othinus went to fetch a bag from the kitchen.
"Wait let me finish my food, I'll come with you" Touma said
"No no you eat properly, I'll go and buy it. You need to rest too, and besides I need to get a little bit familiar with the normal human life too" Othinus stated a genuine fact.
"Yeah that's true. Well, try to get cheap ingredients" Touma said
"Seriously that's what you say when you see me off..." Othinus sighed
"Haha come back soon" Touma laughed
"Now then let's eat..." Touma's phone started ringing as soon as he was about put the spoon in his mouth. He sighed and took his phone out. "Oh this is... Hello Fukiyose...yeah I got home...well I was eating"
Apparently somehow Touma had ended up in sharing his phone number with Fukiyose and Mizuki.
"Kamijo, Mizuki just phoned me and told that those delinquents escaped before the judgement arrived. She told to be careful" Fukiyose informed him.
"Oh I see. Well I don't think they'll try something like that again" Touma dismissed her thoughts.
"Hey you should be careful, they might plot revenge" Fukiyose scolded him on phone. "Anyways we'll talk more about it tomorrow in school. Also be careful on your way ok?"
"Yeah yeah"
"Ok then, Bye see you at school tomorrow" Fukiyose said sweetly.
"Seriously now, troubles always flock my way. Oh well worrying doesn't help anyone" Touma continued eating.
In a dark ally a few boys were sitting.
"Damm I think he broke my jaw. Next time I see him I'll kill him for sure!" The Leader yelled furiously.
"We'll get him boss. He messed up our faces and made a laughing stock out of us" Another boy said
"So this is where you have been" Another group of delinquents approached the Leader.
"Oh you finally arrived. Did you bring in the goods?" The 'Leader' asked
"Yeah yeah here, but still to hear that you guys got beaten up by a single kid. Man you have fallen low" The new gang's Leader mocked while he handed them a briefcase.
The 'Leader' opened it and smiled. He took out something black and shining made of metal. It was an object that was very compact but still lethal. A simple handgun, and there was more than one of them.
"Now it'll be a piece of cake" The 'Leader'grinned. "Tomorrow we'll pay him a visit and that girl too, I need to make sure she gets some too. I think the boy's name was Touma and the girl was called Fukiyose" He rubbed the back of his head.
"We'll help you. Afterall it's the matter of the reputation of our gan" The new Leader said. "Everyone we will get him when he is returning from school. We'll strike when there are less people around and teach him a lesson. If he resists too much then..."
"You'll do nothing" Suddenly a voice came from the dark alley.
"Who's there come out" The new Leader roared. "Come out or I'll shoot" He threatened
Someone slowly started coming out of the darkness. From the looks of it, it was a girl.
"You'll do nothing because... you need to be alive to do something..." She muttered
Her face was not yet clearly visible but she had long blond hair and wore a dark pink one piece dress.
"Damm she's something! Wow today is our lucky day. What's with the eye patch though? Some sort of fashion? Either way she's amazing" The new Leader said with his eyes fixed on her.
"So you are the ones who... Who hurt my Beloved! You lowly maggots dare try to hurt someone who means everything to me!" Her beautiful face was distorted with pure rage. "I created this world for him. And I will remove the unnecessary parts without any delay"
"Hah! Damm why does he has so many girls? Oh well go get her guys. Have fun and make sure to save some for us too" The 'Leader' said
A lot of them ran towards Othinus. And...
Her reaction was... just a small thing, she flicked her fingers... that was all or rather, that was more than enough.
"Oh Othinus it's you, you're late where have you been?" Touma opened his door and let her in.
"I had to take a bit of detour, I was lost and then I had to take care of something" Othinus showed him the bag and he began to put it's contents into the fridge.
"Hmm... okay" He didn't ask much questions.
"Now you need to sleep. Unless you want to be late tomorrow too" Othinus reminded him.
"Yeah you're right" Touma said
After cleaning up the plates, they both started going to the room to sleep.
"Um Othinus?"
"I'll sleep in the bed next to you"
"Seriously this again. Then I'll go sleep in the bathtub..."
"Doesn't exist"
"...Hah... Such Misfortune!"
Among all this Touma totally forgot about asking Othinus about the world specifics.
So how was this? Obviously Touma will do heroic deeds wherever he goes don't you agree? Any suggestions and comments for this are welcomed.
