"What are we doing here master, shouldn't we be in school?" Hana asks confuse as the three are currently in a quiet clear grass field that is a couple of blocks away from the school.
Nawin smile a bit, then pull out two necklaces with black rings hanging on the chain making the girls look at him confuse "You have exactly 20 minutes to get these rings from me and after that we can have lunch" he said.
"What happen if we fail Nawin-sama" Akame ask "You won't get to eat your lunch and watch me throw it in a bin and eat mines" the black haired reply making the two sweat drop feeling their stomach rumble a bit "I just have to skip breakfast this morning" Hana mutters.
"Doesn't this seem a little unfair Nawin-sam-" "I thought I told you not to call me that Akame" Nawin reply making the black haired blink a couple of time before nods "Sorry I mean Nawin-kun, as I was saying, it seems a little unfair considering you can just use the speeding shadow god to escape any kind of attacks" Akame said bringing up a good point as she seen what the technique could do when they were training this early morning "I have to agree with her master" Hana join in.
"Ok then I won't use the Speeding Shadow God to make it fair ok?" Nawin ask making the two nod "Good, now then the rules are not to use any destructive technique understand, we don't need human come rushing here so stick with close quarter combat and close range move… Now then Begin!" he yell and immediately the two disappears making the Makasha raise his eyebrow 'Huh the two didn't attack me out front… smart move' he smile then place the necklace on his pocket and let it dangle out.
Nawin close his eyes, a dark image in his mind showing the whole field area, one light beeps at the far right catching his attention 'Hmm what are you doing all the way over there Akame?' the black haired tries to find Hana but gets no luck making him reopen his eyes to see the ground beneath him start to crack.
Nawin jump back narrowly avoiding a fist aiming for his chin, Hana lands on the ground and immediately send a kick which the black haired block easily with his right palm "Well my familiar is that all you got" Nawin said with a slight smirk making the green haired grin "No I have allot more".
Hana thrust her right fist forward sending an air blast, pushing the black haired back a few meters. Nawin notice Akame magic signature appears at behind making him turn to see her trying to grab the necklace with Hana also on the other side trying to grab the other one.
Nawin eyes flash red, the two suddenly feel an unknown force pushing them back, sending both of them to the forest. Nawin smirk bringing his right hand near his red slit eyes before it turn back to normal.
Mindscape
Sairex clench his fist tightly looking at the Television showing the training session, Tairex notice his brother anxious movement "Sairex what's wrong?" He ask yawning "Don't play stupid brother, it's Nawin that's I'm worry about" Sairex said glaring at the black haired "You shouldn't have given him that power so early" Tairex feel a slash mark appear in his right cheek making his eyes glow red.
Tairex glare at his brother who eyes glow golden, glaring back "Well I thought it's power could help him since allot of enemies are targeting him" "It was a stupid decision, you of all people should know what that power will do to him if he keeps using it too much, you should have taught him something else and leave that for last!" Sairex sigh trying to calm himself, leaning his forehead on his fists "The more he uses it, the more he will lose himself" Tairex look at his brother for a few second then back to the television 'You better not fail like the others kid…'
Training Field
Nawin stand still with his arm cross waiting for the two next moves 'Seems like they went quiet after the last encounter' the black haired look down at his watch seeing they have 15 minutes left.
Nawin close his eyes and take a deep breath, he move his head to the side narrowly dodging a fire blast aiming for his head. Nawin open his eyes to see Akame appear above him, delivering a drop kick which he blocks easily with his left arm.
Akame wasn't finish sending a fist toward her king face which he block with his right hand. "Nice try you two" Nawin eyes flash red seeing Hana appears beside him trying to grab the necklace. The Makasha quickly move his left hand to the black haired wrist and throw her into Hana, sending the girls back to the ground.
"You two need to work harder to get an opening from me" Nawin said crossing his arm, the two girls get up and charge toward the Makasha making him raise his eyebrow wondering why their acting to reckless. Akame summons the black thunder alerting Nawin who summon the twisted etcher blocking the incoming attack, Hana send a kick to his feet making him jump, "Tsk" Nawin click his tongue then in midair he send a kick to Akame sword sending it the other side freeing the twisted etcher.
Nawin quickly start the engine making the chain spin and send the sword down to Hana seeing her trying to grab the necklace, but Akame quickly appear beside the green haired blocking the attack, Nawin eyes widen slightly seeing Hana's hand are inches away from the necklace.
"I don't think so" Suddenly dozen of shadow weapons appear around Nawin and push the two back barreling to the ground. "Ow" Hana groan rubbing her back from the hard impact then looks up seeing dozen of weapons circling around Nawin who look at them stoically with his red glowing eyes.
"Not yet" Akame dash forward and grab the black thunder that is laid a few feet away from Nawin making his eyes widen 'SHIT!' "LIGHTNING STREAM" the black thunder blade burst in red electric and send a lighting stream toward Nawin shocking him "AHHHH" "HANA NOW" Akame shout making the green haired nod.
The shadow weapons shatter from the black haired losing concentration, Hana appear beside him and reach for the necklace, but she is stop when black lighting sparks around the Makasha body, he extends both his arms "Demonic Stream!" the two girls scream in pain as black electricity strike around their body then both is sent flying back and crash into the ground hard creating a giant crater.
Nawin shake his head getting rid of the dizziness and see the two on the ground moaning in pain. "That was a smart move, I'll admit you guys caught me off guard with that" Nawin says as the two stand back up. Akame grab her sword and run forward in blinding speed, Nawin eyes flash red, he summon a gun blade and block the strike, at the corner of his sight he can spot Hana preparing for an attack.
Nawin push Akame back and kick her in the stomach, then switch his blade into a gun mode and fire at Hana making her move away, "Damn" she curse and was about to turn but is stop when a fist is slam into her face sending her barreling across the field.
Nawin land down on the ground gently, then check his watch seeing it's already past 20 minute, he dispels the gun blade "Okay, you two, the time is up" he announce, reaching for the necklaces and throw them to the two surprising the girls.
"What I thought we failed?" Hana said confuse holding necklace closely "I never said anything about you not getting it if you guys failed did I?" Nawin replies. Akame inspect the ring closely, seeing a beautiful white diamond place in the beautiful craft black ring, "I want you two to wear the ring in any fingers you want, it is a sign that you are on my team, and it will prove useful in the future…" Nawin explain.
"Why don't you have one Nawin-kun?" Akame ask, sliding the ring on her middle finger while Hana puts on her ring finger, Nawin chuckle a bit, then raise his right hand up showing the ring on his index finger but instead of a white diamond it is red. "Only us and the future member of this group will receive these ring and you must keep them in your fingers at all time, I'm sure you've noticed it's extremely comfortable to wear that you don't even feel like anything is on your finger's" Nawin said making the two nods looking at their rings.
"Well I'm fine with wearing it all the time, it looks cool" Hana said looking at the ring closely making Nawin raise his eyebrow with amusement 'Why does she always have to react like that when I buy her stuffs?' the black haired wonders, remembering the other day he bought the hydra a iPod and headphones for listening music so she wouldn't be so bored at the familiar forest.
Nawin shake his head "Anyway since you guys failed, no lunch for you two" he said making the girls head fall, a little depress that they failed. Nawin sense two magic signature appearing in the area making him sigh "You guys can come out now, you should know better to hide from me" he said seeing Rias and Akeno jumping down from the trees.
Nawin sigh knowing he will have to explain though he personality don't want to, Rias look at Akame and now that she is this close to her 'There's no doubt about it she's a devil, the magic radiating from her is powerful higher than most beginners devil' the red haired though then turn to the Makasha.
Nawin turn his attention to Rias but quickly notice Akeno eyes, they were dark almost unstable and she is looking directly at Akame making Nawin eyes narrow knowing what his girlfriend can be like with jealousy, 'She definitely won't be afraid of spilling blood to make a point' Nawin shake his head and decide to deal with that later before turning to the Gramory.
"Is there something you need Rias, though I have an idea why you're here" Nawin said making the red haired nod "Well I'm just curious, it seem you finally start recruiting members correct" she said taking a glance at Akame. Nawin nod "Well that's what the evil piece are for" Rias eye narrow at the way the black haired is talking, it's like he's keeping secrets.
"Well it's good to know you're finally having a peerage member but if you don't mind telling me what happened last night with the ghouls, I got Issei's and Yuuto side but not yours" "I see… well Akame was attacked by the ghouls pack leader but I came in time to stop the creature before it could do any harm and after killing the ghoul, I recruit Akame to my group since she witness the whole thing" Nawin explain "I see… that's all I want to know for now, I have other matters to attend please don't skip school okay" Rias said turning back to her sisterly way making the black haired nod "I got it Rias don't worry" Nawin send a smile to her.
Rias smile back and the two disappear in red light. "… Master is it me or does Akeno look like she have some hate toward Akame" Hana said breaking the silence "I don't even know her" Akame points out confuse on why the raven haired would give her a death look.
"Don't give it so much thought, I'll deal with that" Nawin said looking at the spot the two girls just left then turn to his team "Well you two we're heading back to school" "And eat lunch" Hana ask a little hopeful "No lunch for the two of you" Nawin reply making the green haired sulk though Akame just shrug since she went a day without food before so going without lunch is nothing.
Time Skip
"MAASSTERRR can I have some!" Hana whines seeing the Makasha eating his sushi while she is seated on the ground looking at him. Akame is sitting on the ledge reading a book about sword techniques. "No Hana you can't have any" Nawin said for what seem to be the 10th time.
"Nawin-kun!" A voice appear from the stairs as footstep can be heard coming up, "Oh boy" Hana disappear, knowing who the person is, Akame blink a couple of times, then goes back reading but Nawin walk toward her and gently push her shoulder making the black haired fall down to a net that is placed down a few floors as Akeno enter the roof.
Akame blinks a couple of time looking at the sky with a blank expression, she shrugs then grab her book that is on her chest and resume reading while laying on the net comfortably.
Nawin turn to the raven haired whose holding her lunch box, she smile and walk toward him "I was looking for you" "I can see that, you should have just eaten your lunch with the others, lunch time is almost over" Nawin reply as the raven haired start eating her own made sandwich beside him "Well I want to eat with you that's all".
Nawin look at the raven haired eyes closely and see it's now normal well in her way at least, it's now more stable and calm 'Otouto I want to tell you something about Akeno, she's a very different person before she met you, how can I put this correctly well let's say she's a masochistic and sadistic especially when she's engage in battles but it seems ever since she met you, she's been acting more normal I guess you have that effect on her but still there has been a few incident over the years that Akeno's mood has gone completely unstable that she will hurt even her own comrades' Rias words run though the black haired mind.
Nawin look at the courtyard and notice something about the raven haired ever since he start dating her 'I barely know her' Nawin eyes narrow slightly 'her past, her family, the reason why she's unstable, I don't know anything, all I know is the present but something tell me the past is what's cause Akeno to become what she is today and it seems I'm the only one she seems to be complete calm with even more than Rias, a person who Akeno cares for like a sister, and there's her' an image appear in the black haired mind showing one of the Akumi member he encountered that look almost identical to Akeno.
'You can never run away from the past, it's something you have to face eventually, it's unavoidable but Akeno what are you running away from?' Nawin glance at the raven haired whose eating her sandwich happily making his eyes soften, it seems like every time she's alone with him she can be this happy.
'You know this situation remind me a little bit of Raynare' Tairex said making the Makasha eyes flash red in anger 'You're stepping in a thin ice saying that Tairex, Akeno is nothing like her' Nawin said with venomous tone shocking the black dragon a bit.
Tairex suddenly chuckles 'Kid why don't we take a look at the facts, before these two met you they were pretty much a unstable sadistic girls and after they met you they become more stable and be generally happy for once in their life, though for Raynare it was her first happiness but for Akeno she found true happiness that even her friends can't help provide so you can see they are quite similar in a way' Nawin eyes widen in complete shock hearing the dragon comment.
Nawin shake his head and glare mentally at the dragon 'Fine I'll admit they have some similarity, but there is one thing that is different from the two' Tairex raise his eyebrow 'Oh really mind enlighten me in that' 'My love for Akeno is stronger and more real than the love I ever gave to Raynare' Nawin reply surprising the black dragon, the Makasha cut of the link and goes back eating his lunch with Akeno.
Time Skip
"What a day" Nawin yawn walking toward his locker with Hana beside him "Master… School is awesome!" she smile making the black haired look at her weirdly "Glad you're enjoying it Hana" "Well awesome is too much, maybe staying in a familiar forest for my whole entirely life was so boring since the only thing I did is sleep or hunt for food so being in school is really a nice change, it's never dull or boring" She explain.
Nawin nod and open his locker to be greeted by a pink letter "Hmm" He picks the paper up and open it "I love letter?" Hana ask with interest. Nawin unfold the paper and read 'Nawin Makasha I like you to meet me at the park around 8pm tonight please accept this invitation, I've been wanting very long to finally talk to you in person' "Ow Master you seem to have an admirer" Hana laugh a bit.
Nawin sigh unfolding the paper and place it back in the letter "Are you going?" the hydra ask with curiosity clear in her tone "I have to, I would feel uncomfortable leaving a vulnerable girl alone late at night, I'll just decline her confession and take her home safely" Hana grins hearing that, she always knew her master have a kind heart inside.
"Nawin-kun?" Akeno appear beside the two surprising them, the raven haired notice the letter and her eyes narrow. Nawin mentally curse but kept a calm expression "What that letter in your hand Nawin-kun?" She asks. "It's just the letter from one of the teachers, telling me not to skip school so often" The black haired reply while mentally face palm at his excuse, why would a teacher sent a letter to their student especially a pink one.
Akeno look at him for few second then nod "Okay well I just wanted to tell you that I'm going to be late, since me and Rias have a high-class contract to complete, I'll be coming back late at night" Nawin nod 'Well this will make things easier at night, I won't have to make a stupid excuse to her when I leave to meet this secret admirer' "Okay take care of yourself Akeno" the raven haired smile and kiss his cheek before making her way to the occult club.
"I didn't know there was a dual contract?" Hana ask "Well it's more of the devil decision if they want to have another person assist them in a dangerous contract, of course the reward will be spilt but it will be good practice for their teamwork skills" Nawin reply making her nod "so I'm guessing Akame is doing her own contract right now?" "Yes she got contacted a few minute before lunch ended".
Nawin close his eyes and take a deep breath making the hydra look at him curious "Is there something on your mind master?" Nawin open his eyes "Just thinking about the next step Hana…".
"TEMEE!" A voice boom behind the two making Nawin sigh before turning around to see Issei walking toward them with Kokoro beside him, "Something you need Issei?" "Yep I was wondering can you be a practice partner for Kokoro new move" Nawin raise his eyebrow knowing this is a trap 'You're still too easy to read Issei' "No" the black haired reply closing his locker and walk out of the building with Hana.
"How about this Nawin-senpai" Kokoro call out making the Makasha turn to her "Why don't you just watch as I perform my move on Issei, Maybe you can come up with a cool name for it since I can't think of anything that fits it well" "For someone who named their pet Lula I'm not surprise" Issei mutter making the orange haired smack his head "OW okay sorry!".
"Well fine but let's try this in a different location, don't need unwanted attention" Nawin said making the two nod.
Time Skip: Training Field
"Woaw what happened here?" Issei ask looking at the area that is filled craters on the ground and few broken trees.
"We were training here at lunch time, so that's the area is in this state" Nawin reply leaning his back against the tree while Hana sits on top of the branch "Well go ahead Kokoro, I'm quite interest to see this move" the orange nod while Issei shiver a bit "This will be the last time I'll ever be your training dummy" he said to his queen who smirk "Not sure about that".
Issei suddenly shake his head "No I can't, I-it's too sca-" he is cut off by Kokoro kicking him in the gut making him bend down, She reach back grabbing the Hyoudou head then place it on her shoulder and fall to the ground making Issei head bounce on her shoulder so violently that it send him out of her grip and black flip a couple of time in the air before landing on the ground hard leaving him barely conscious.
Nawin raise his eyebrow with interest 'That is one interesting technique, it seems when Kokoro body fall to the ground her opponent head hits her shoulder hard and bounce off it violently sending them up in the air, if she perform that move up air it could break a person neck'.
"Yes" Kokoro mutter pumping her fist up the air for being able to perform the move perfectly now. "That is one hell of a move Kokoro" Nawin said making the orange haired turn to him "Thank that was the same comment I got from the others" she said with a small smile.
"Th-that was terrible" Issei mutter getting back up wobbly, "I bet it does, that move really will hit your neck so don't be surprise that anything below you neck won't respond properly for a couple of minute" the black haired said. "Well Nawin-senpai you thought of any name?" Kokoro ask.
Nawin thinks for a minute "Hmm how about Sutan Akuma?" he suggests "Stun Demon? Now that's a name" Hana comments, Kokoro thinks for a minute before nodding "Hmm sounds cool, I like it".
"Well since that's done, Kokoro you should take Issei back home, it looks like his about to pass out" Nawin said seeing the brown haired daze eyes. "Yeah I can see that well, good night Nawin-senpai" Kokoro said picking the brown haired up and disappear in pure speed.
"You will sure have an interesting night Master" Hana grins the black haired only hums then begin making his way home making the green haired jump down and follow him.
Time Skip
"I'm home" Nawin call out walking in his home, "Welcome back Onii-chan" Asia shouts from the living room, Nawin enters the room while Hana head up to his bedroom.
Nawin spot Asia sitting on the couch making some origami's, the black haired take a seat next to her and see about a dozen of other origami's on the table. "Never knew you can make origami's Asia?" the blond smile at him and give her brother a bird origami "Well Mama actually teach me, it took me a while but I was able to do it correctly".
Nawin look at the bird origami seeing it being perfectly make, he pets the blond lock giving her a soft smile even though she can't see, the black haired knows Asia can feel him smiling. "Onii-chan did you know if you have dozens of Origami in place, it may grant you a wish" Asia said catching the black haired attention.
"Really… well then" Nawin place all the origami in row "Why don't' you make a wish Asia" he said making the blond shake her head before turning to him "No it's not for me, I wanted you to make one" Asia said surprising the black haired "That's the reason why I made these so please Onii-chan make a wish" the blond smile bringing her hands together.
Nawin look at the origami's and close his eyes for a few second before opening them again "Let's hope it works" he said turning back to the blond "I hope whatever you wished comes true Onii-chan" Nawin smile the kiss the blond forehead "Me too Asia…".
Time Skip
"It's almost time Master" Hana lies on the bed, drawing in her sketch book and kicking her legs around every so often. Nawin who lean against the window look at the shining moon, his eyes narrow 'Something's wrong…' the black haired can't help but shake this uneasy feeling his been getting ever since it turned dark.
Nawin open his window and walk out but before leaving he turn back to his familiar "Hana stay here okay" he order making the green haired nod. Nawin jump down and immediately dash to the park "You seem in a rush… Nawin-kun" the black haired freeze and turn to see her standing next to a lamp post smiling at him.
Nawin stop and was about to reply but a scent of blood blast through his senses making him turn to the park direction, Nawin turn back and to see her gone making him curse and immediately speed toward the park.
'Don't tell me!' Nawin jump over the fences and see one light post is still on, shining in a bloody corpse. Nawin clench his fist and walk toward the body to see it's a girl around his aged wearing a Kuoh academy uniform, the black haired kneel down and begin inspecting her body for any wounds 'She's been killed just recently no more than an hour ago… probably even earlier'.
Nawin place his head on the girl face and turn it around to see her dull death brown eyes, her blond hair is soak in her own blood. The Makasha notice a hole through her stomach making him pull her shirt up a little and see a clean hole going right through her abdomen making his eyes narrow.
'It looks like a size of a hand piercing right through her stomach but it could b some kind of weapon also, whoever did this means business and is not afraid to get dirty… but this doesn't seem to be an injury that killed her because she would still be alive when I arrived here though maybe she'd be unconscious or in a near death state so there must be something else' Nawin looks for other wounds and spot something that shock him.
'Whoever did this is a sick person' Nawin eyes flash with anger and disgust seeing dozens of stab wound on the girl chest "This would kill anyone, she must have been stab over 50 times over the chest same goes with her heart" Nawin stand back up and sigh wondering why would someone kill an innocent girl.
Nawin look at the girl one more time and see her holding something in her right hand making the black haired kneel down and grab it, he stand back up, looking closely to see a small red box. Nawin open it and see a compass, confusing him '… No this can't be right' Nawin notice the compass is pointing at the east direction making him turn to the right and see a tree with blood written on it "You're Mine" Nawin reads out the word.
Nawin look at the girl body with sadness in his usual blank eyes 'So she was killed because of her affection toward me' the black haired kneel down and close the girl eyes to let her rest in peace, he see her bag laying next to her and it shows the girl name "Don't worry Chika I'll find whoever did this to you and make them pay'.
Somewhere
In a dark isolated alleyway there is a shadowy figure walking through the road, on their right hand they hold a blooded knife that drips of blood. The person looks at the knife and licks the blood making their violet eyes shine before they disappear into darkness.
