Transmigration

Summary: Who ever said that Saphir Wyon Neis, a lonely child, had to become Dist, a man full of regrets and haunted by the past? 'Not this time,' he swore in his mind, 'I will never become a character that yearns for the attention of an enemy!' SI-OC-as-Dist.

DISCLAIMER! I DO NOT OWN TALES OF THE ABYSS!

"School?"

Saphir inwardly groaned in despair, knowing that if either Jade or Peony heard it, they would make the next week for him hell on earth.

Currently, the trio of children were sitting in Peony's room after entering illegally (again).

"Yeah! It'll be fun!" Said a certain blonde haired menace.

"Hm… interesting…" Murmured a certain brunette with (unhealthy) sadistic tendencies.

"I suppose it's been decided then! Let's enroll in Professor Nebilim's school!"

Unable to contain his despair any longer, Saphir walked up to the closest wall and started banging his head as hard as he could, wondering when this had become his life. 'Kill me now.' He thought as another wave of depression came in when he heard:

"Well aren't you happy, Saphir?" from a grinning Jade Balfour.

-Time skip-

Professor Nebilim could only stare in shock as she watched three of her new students run around in circles, two of them chasing the last one along with… rappigs?

After watching for a while, she finally decided to help the poor lavender-haired child.

"Jade! Peony! Leave Saphir alone already!" She called as loudly as she could.

Unsurprisingly, the two continued to chase Saphir until she forcefully stopped them.

While scolding Jade and Peony while hugging a sniffling Saphir, her thoughts wondered off. She wondered about Jade's lack of guilt and twisted mind. It worried the teacher, hoping that the brunette would never make the same mistakes that she had.

After finally letting them go, she wondered off to her own home, contemplating the trio of…friends? They were a strange trio, made up of a sadistic brunette, the prince of the Malkuth Empire, and a rather feminine boy.

Now that she thought about it, sometimes, it seemed like Saphir knew and could do more than he let on. As Professor Nebilim got out the keys to her home, she realized what felt so off about the lavender-haired boy.

Despite having been running around for close to half an hour, Saphir never was out of breath or exhausted. When she was scolding Jade and Peony, the two were breathing heavily, yet despite the fact that Saphir was sniffling, he was still mostly breathing evenly!

Professor Nebilim groaned, feeling as if she missed something big.

'Hopefully, Jade is the only mentally unstable child. I wouldn't know what to do if Saphir were as well.'

-Back to the Trio-

Jade stared at pouting Saphir, having also came to the same conclusion as Professor Nebilim.

"Why aren't you breathing hard?" He asked bluntly, not caring if he seemed rude.

Peony paused, as if suddenly realizing that fact. Quickly spinning around on his heel, he turned around and glared at Saphir, as if it were the boy's fault that they were scolded.

"Now that you mention it, why aren't you tired at all?!" He pouted, thinking about how unfair it was.

'What am I supposed to say?' Saphir thought, inwardly groaning for the nth time. 'That I like to run around Keterburg every night? I'll just give a BS answer…'

"It's because I'm better, so there!" Saphir replied, sticking out his tongue at the duo before running off.

Jade raised an eyebrow at the answer, but decided not to pursue Saphir when he ran off. 'One day, I'll find out all your secrets… That day will come soon, so you better watch out, Saphir.'

-Several months later-

"Jade, this is defiantly not a good idea." Saphir murmured to his companion.

The two were at the local library researching the Seventh Fonon. Inside Saphir's book, was a smaller book about fontech because he had no need to research about the Seventh Fonon.

Actually, for some strange reason, it came naturally to him. Just last week, Saphir had managed to somehow heal a rabbit that he had found injured and had taken it inside his home. Pushing his thoughts aside, he listened intently as Jade ranted about the Fonons… again.

"Look Jade, You've been cooped up in the library for days. You have to go to sleep sometime soon as well as eat something besides those awful rice balls. Despite what you may think, you are a terrible cook… Plus it's not healthy to just eat rice balls for five days straight." Saphir informed Jade, unknowingly sounding like Professor Nebilim… or to be more specific, a nagging mother.

Looking away from his book, Jade stared disbelievingly at Saphir.

"What are you, my mother?" he asked.

While this wasn't the first time Saphir had nagged Jade or Peony to do something, as if he were a mother no less, it was defiantly the first time that Saphir had nagged about his health of all things.

"No, why would I be your mother? I'm your friend. Now stop being an idiot and go rest already!" Saphir rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Jade carefully observed the other boy. Friend? That was a first for him. He never really considered other people friends… Peony was more of that semi-annoying person that he found amusement in and Nephry was his younger sister, so she was tolerated. Professor Nebilim was nice, but he wasn't completely sure of what he felt for her.

Hearing Saphir's words, Jade felt an unexplainable warmth spread through his body. Nodding, he marked his page, checked it out, and left the library with Saphir following closely behind him, fussing. Jade wondered about this foreign feeling and smiled a bit.

'Is this what having a friend is like?'

It's been a long, long time since the last update, hasn't it... *Hides* Sorry... Please review! Ciao~
