Well this is Kazuma's story, you'll get to see what he has to deal with, and his personality also a little bit about his family.
Kazuma: Has short but messy blonde hair and brown eyes, he commonly refers to himself as a bastard and uses a one handed sword technique he developed during his childhood.
Kazuma POV
I woke up to the sound of the alarm clock next to my bed; I was in the apartment that I alone live in. It wasn't so bad well at least compared to the ARK the living quarters there where half this size and I had to share it with a few other people, also this room has something called a bathroom where apparently you take a dump and piss and also take something called a shower that runs a lot of clean water on me to wash me down. Makes me feel like a wasteful Founder…on the ARK we just went in the ocean, bathed in it too… well anyways enough talking about what I guess would be disgusting in the outside world, I got up made myself breakfast grabbed my bokuto and Zippo lighter and went out the door.
I got to school at the same time as most everyone else who were chatting with their friends while giving me a wide berth. For crying out loud people! Just because I have blonde hair doesn't mean I'm a delinquent! It can (and does) mean I'm a multiracial bastard. Although it's too late to say anything now since I've been in a few fights since my enrollment here, also I shared the fact I was in the Resistance back on the ARK and everyone looked like some sort of killer! So overall I'm not well liked here, and kind of feared.
Well the reason I'm multiracial is my parents. They way they met was my dad was a blond Caucasian man who locked eyes with my mom on the street, and there we have some love at first sight bullshit. So the problem was they were different races and on the ARK racial tensions ran high. We had a whole bunch of people with different ideals different nations different cultures all crammed into crappy living conditions tensions are bound to rise. Anyways they began sneaking out and meeting each other but their racial groups were against this so they snuck away and a few months later I popped out. Yeah, I'll just say there's a lack of condoms on the ARK… so in case you're lost this basically a modern day Romeo and Juliet story with the protagonists living and I'm the bastard child that came from that, and let me tell you it's not that great both groups hate me and tried to hurt me on a number of occasions! Why the hell did I stay awake during the that English class I already know English and Russian and German, and a whole mess of other languages…yeah on the ARK you need to know a minimum of five languages just to say good morning to your neighbors.
Well back to the schoolyard still shunned and feared. "ohhhhh, he's so cute" said a voice coming from a group girls who I can guarantee are not talking about me…sadly. The group of girls where watching a black cat sitting on the concrete wall and I could be mistaking but he looked annoyed…I could being mistaken but he looked annoyed…I guess to much attention isn't as good as it sounds….poor cat, and now it's watching me with interest…weird.
I go into the school and walk down the halls everyone giving me a wide berth, one of the upsides of being feared is that no one gets in your way "hey, Kazuma we have some things we need to settle" except the dumbasses who picked a fight with you on day one and are one of the reasons you are feared. I turn towards him, he's an average sized guy and has some bandages on his face (my doing ;D)
"Do you really need to go through this again!" I complain in annoyed voice I kicked this guys ass every-day since day one and he still wants to fight me, well I'll give him points for tenacity "dude one day, one day is all I'm asking to be left in peace."
"Not happening" and charged no cocky ass speech about today being day he'll defeat me? Well maybe I'll make it to class on time today. In response to his charge I just punch him giving out a an instant KO.
"Jackass" I muttered and went on my way everyone remembering what I can do and press against the walls as I walk towards my class, the war ended on the ARK but for some reason I still have someone to fight the 'class president' is going to give me hell for this. I walk into the class and sit in my seat in the way back next to the windows it's a nice spot the teachers never catch me sleeping back here, that or they just don't care. Probably the latter.
The teacher walked in and the class began, and my thoughts wandered to Charlotte now known as Char, she was cute! But boss saw her first besides she wouldn't go out with a claimed to be delinquent bastard like me, but she does hang around the boss… Hmm. Ah screw it, if she shows interest I'll go for it, but if she doesn't boss gets the first shot.
Class went on and I hardly paid attention until I heard the term 'dust explosion' stayed awake for the explanation and after that fell asleep. I awoke right at the time class ended and lunch began but before I could get up the class president comes over.
"Couldn't help but notice that you came on time today" Yuki Fujimura our shoulder length black haired class rep and has been on my ass since I got here, hell I saved her from a couple of horny delinquents once but she didn't let up with being on my case.
"The guy skipped his rant and went straight to the fighting so I saved a minute or two" I explained casually while getting up to go to lunch. Lunch being a fish I caught with a makeshift spear down by the canal.
"So you were fighting again?" she asked
"I don't see why your surprised, I pretty much do it every day" I said getting a tiny bit pissed off at her and just walk away, everyday she's like this but I can't do anything about it because she doesn't attack me and there some screwed up rule out here that woman are dominant…aren't both sexes suppose to be equal…more or less. Apparently it has something to do with the I.S. but then boss beat two of them on his own…so what does that make him? You know I may be asking for an ass kicking but I kind want to fight one of those.
I go out into the schoolyard with my boxed fish which I grilled earlier during breakfast and sit down on the edge of the yard on a bench and began to eat, while the group of girls from earlier try to coax the cat down "It's so cute but why won't it come down?" probably because your annoying the hell out of it, I mean seriously I've only heard your voice twice and it pisses me off!
"Poor katze" I muttered using the German word for cat, the cat itself seem to have heard me somehow, then spotted and ran on top of the walls and jumped down right next to me and sat there...this is a very bizarre cat, I like it "hey katze what are you doing, can't you see I'm eating"
"ahhh" screamed a girl from the cats fan-club "Kazuma is going to kill the cat!"
"Screw you bitch!" I retorted that girl seriously pisses me off! "Hey, katze you can stay here if you want but I'm not feeding you…" as if the cat understood me it laid down and curled up next to me. The cats fan-club stared at me in shock and then I got an idea "you know the fact you've been coaxing katze here to come down, and me to not do anything. That says something about you people since it came to me, doesn't it?" I said with a somewhat devilish grin as they fumed. "I'm a bastard aren't I?"
Yuki POV
I watched him from the window telling off the girls who were bothering the stray cat for the past week and I can't help but blush. Despite what he probably thinks, I don't hate him. When he saved me from those men awhile ago I kind of fallen for him…I mean I had little bit of an interest in him before but after the incident I really liked him. But every time I try talking to him I get nervous and berate him over trivial matters. Also my status as class rep and his as the toughest delinquent in school makes things hard for me.
"Hello, class rep of class 1-D" said a guy walking up this man name is Tora he's the 2nd year kendo club captain and an arrogant prick who has a thing for me "why don't you me have lunch together?" at least he's direct. But I scowl, refuse, and look back to Kazuma who seems to have glares being directed at him.
Tora also looks out the window glares in Kazuma's direction and walks away. I hope he doesn't try anything
Tora POV
So she has eyes for the delinquent. Well we'll see how long that lasts. I from a devious smirk as I continue onward.
Kazuma POV
"I won't ask you again let the cat go" said the girl; the cats' fan-club was directing glares at me. You know I hope I never get a fan-club. That just sounds like some sort of hell!
"Katze (I named the cat Katze got problem with it?) can leave any time he wants" I reply calmly the cat looks up at me "you want to go with them" The cat shakes his head and goes back to sleep, okay I really like this cat now. "there's your answer" they fumed again.
"You know it's not nice to make girls angry" said a voice I'm familiar with it was Tora, the arrogant, bishonen (pretty boy), jackass, who is captain of the kendo club I have been meaning to kick this guys ass for awhile now but if I start something then I'd have to fight my way in and out of school…wait how's that different from now? Screw it, I'm going to fight this guy. "Your delinquent tendencies have been a blight in this school for too long," he took out his own bokuto "for sake of all the cute girls here I will make you learn your place" the girls all sigh in admiration, oh yeah the guy's also a womanizer, pretty much all the girls are after him and his lackey's, not that any of the girls here would go after me anyways. And is this guy picking a fight with me? This is one of the best days I've had since getting off the ARK!
"Bring it on you effeminate jackass!" I yelled jumping up from the bench grabbing my bokuto in the process.
"Such vulgarity" said Tora "do you really think you can beat the captain of the kendo club?"
"Hell yes." I stated with confidence, trust me if the author had better descriptive skills you'd think you could kick this guys ass to, plus all the guys coming for me during my childhood, and my combat experience during the revolution, I'm pretty sure I can pound this guy into the ground!
"Alright then, come at me!" he swung his bokuto in showy off manner; this guy is a total show boater. I charge and our swords met and we blocked and parried each other's strikes, I'll admit that this guy is a little better fighter than I thought but I'm still going to kick his ass "so crude and unrefined" he said with a snobby tone "I'm almost insulted that you carry a sword" we broke away
"Well I AM insulted that you call yourself a man!" I retorted and he glared, hahaha, I'm such a bastard "you hit like a friggin girl" yeah I'm not too proud of that, but I ran out of insults. Tora just looked at me.
"You do realize that females are considered dominant in today's culture" said Tora, holy crap, just him talking annoys me! "That could actually be considered a compliment."
"It's the thought that counts" I replied with a smirk, well it's true. I charged and attacked with ferocity actually making him step back. But then I noticed something interesting on his sword but doing so distracted me and gave him an opening. I jumped backwards just barely avoiding his strike.
"It's not wise to get distracted on the battlefield" did he seriously just reprimand me on combat techniques? But anyways that thing on his sword gave me an idea.
"You want to know what else is not wise to do on the battlefield?" I asked, he looked at me in confusion and I charged and swung when our blades met, his shattered "Is to come to battle with a weapon in bad condition!" his eyes widened in shock, I then spun around and cracked him in the head this caused him to fall and slide a few feet left.
"ho…how did you defeat me" he asked surprised "your just a bastard child!" how the hell did he know…you know what I don't care.
"What can I say I'm awesome" I replied with a cocky grin "plus your bokuto had a crack in it not a very big one but large enough to be noticeable, and exploitable" he glares at me from the ground "also I'm not a bastard" everyone looked at me confused, and I jutted a thumb at myself "I'm THE bastard who kicked your ass!" I said this with pride "and THE bastard will fight those who want force him or his comrades under their thumbs and THE bastard will fight with everything he has" I declare this with determination. On the ARK I got tired of everyone calling me a bastard so I called myself a bastard wore it like a badge of honor and took their insults and turned it into an F-U directed right back at them, what can I say I'm THE bastard. After my speech Tora promptly passed out, thank god, I was about to kick his face in to do the same thing.
Well lunch ended and Katze went to hide from his fan-club somewhere, I don't blame him even after the fight those girls were still after him poor, poor Katze. The rest of the school-day was uneventful until leaving time in the locker bay "What the hell is this?" I asked no one in particular I pulled out letter in a pinkish envelope with a heart sticker as a seal. The envelope is labeled 'to Kazuma' and a drawing of a heart I opened it and read it out loud.
Dear, Kazuma
I have been admiring you ever since your first step into our school and I want to confess my feelings to you, please meet on the roof after school.
Signed,
Your secret admirer
I hear some books drop and turn to the noise which happens to be the class rep she stared at me with tears in her eyes and ran out beginning to cry…Weird. Anyways this letter is total bullshit, I mean come on? Who would fall for a bastard like me? Well might as well sort this crap out. So I make my way to the roof and when I get there guess who's waiting… it was Tora. You see!? I told you the letter was bullshit! "Holy crap." I say with an even tone, the asshole turned with haughty smile on his face "I had my suspicions but I didn't think…" his smile grew wider "you're gay! And then he face-faulted, yeah I'm a bastard. "I mean I appreciate you think that way but I don't swing that way"
"I'm not gay!"
"Then what the hell was with the letter!?"
"It was lie to lure you up here!"
"Yeah I know" I replied with a smirk
"You…wait, you bastard!"
"Aren't I?" still smirking!
"Anyways, as I have said this is trap!" he said trying to regain his composure
"Since I kicked your ass the first time what makes you think you could win now?" I asked
"I brought friends" he snapped his fingers and five members from the kendo club appeared on the roof, I guess I must have knocked his balls off during the fight so now he needs help taking care of things. "Attack!" well we all know how this will end me kicking their ass. But before I could do anything a small black blur appeared out of nowhere and subsequently knocked out all of the club members including Tora. The black blur landed at my feet to reveal Katze! Okay I really, really, like this cat now.
"Hey Katze!" I said squatting down to greet the cat as it looked up at me "you know you're pretty big badass for cat." I stated. The little fur-ball knocked out six guys in less than ten seconds! That's pretty badass to me. "Hey I have an idea, why don't you come home with me? It'll be great I usually eat fish and my apartment building has a little bit of a rodent problem!" people may think me crazy for talking to a cat, actually they'd probably think I'm crazy for most of the things I do. But this cat is incredibly smart. Katze nodded and jumped on my shoulders as an answer.
Yuki POV
God damn it why couldn't I tell him that I lov… lov…I can't even admit to myself. I couldn't tell him and now it's too late some other girl is telling him. He was the first guy I took an interest in and now he's gone. I hit the ground in frustration
"What's with you?" asked a voice I look and see Kazuma with cat on his shoulders for some reason looking at me in confusion.
"So where's your 'secret admirer'?" I snapped
"Geez just trying to see if your alright" he said scratching your head "anyways that love letter was total BS. It was just the kendo club coming back for revenge, I didn't believe the letter was real but it's still a bit of a low blow"
"So you don't have a girlfriend?" I asked
"I don't really see why you would care, but nope, still single, as if any girl would go out with a bastard like me. Anyways me and this little guy are going home" with that he walked away
I would go out with you
Kazuma POV
Later I got home. Well today was an overall good day kicked pretty boys' ass watched a badass cat kick pretty boys' ass and got a pet. Then just as I opened the door and explosion happened behind startling Katze as he jumped and ran somewhere. I turn to look behind me and see a mechanized body; heavily armored legs shoulder guards somehow floating, kind of looks like a big mechanical samurai. You know I get the feeling this is an I.S. and that someone will have to stop it.
(AN: I'm describing the Uchigane I.S.)
To be safe I grabbed my combat gear from the resistance unlike most of the other guys I was able to smuggle most of my gear from the ARK, such as a 'Gerund' assault rifle, a 'Sea Eagle' handgun, a kelvar vest, I wasn't able to get explosives in here apparently there were a few terrorist attacks in the outside world and everyones on edge so I compensated by getting a whole bunch of ammo, and a machete made out of Titanium! Yeah I spent hours carving that thing out of a cannibalized warship hull and shaping it, but it was worth it. Unfortunately I didn't have time to arm myself so I opted to get my 'Lost' jacket and 'Warrior' pants I also put on my 'Anger' face mask, ah this brings memories…painful memories, but good memories too.
Luckily I kept most of my gear in a backpack so grabbed that and ran for it, and as expected the I.S. followed me, okay these things must have something against guys from the ARK or something! Well anyways I jumped over a particularly high wall and just managed to lock and load my Gerund, before the thing decided it could break through the wall. I unloaded a barrage if bullets, normally I would go for short controlled burst but since it's such a big target, at such close proximity, accuracy was not an issue.
Unfortunately the damn thing had shields and bullets did little more than piss it off…it could be pissed off the thing is a robot! Do robots get pissed off!? Well anyways it materialized a sword in its hand and I countered with my machete. I just stopped a 170 cm robot sword… I would be feeling pretty damn proud of myself if I wasn't fighting for my life. Well anyways I broke off and ran for the industrial district so no civilians get caught in the crossfire. After around twenty minutes of running (I pride myself on my stamina and endurance) I finally made it to the industrial area and by some miracle I made there before the I.S. and ran inside a nearby warehouse to set an ambush. Luckily the building was full of shipping containers so this I can probably use as a terrain advantage also the propane tanks give me an idea. After a few seconds of setting some propane tanks at the entrance where I hope the I.S. will come in…this reminds of setting up satchel charges back during the revolution. So anyways I'm aiming my 'Gerund' from a secluded area right now and I concentrate as I hear the I.S. approaching I see the armored figure walk into the door and right when it gets in front of the propane tank I pull the trigger ending a bullet to the tank, creating a fiery blast.
The I.S.'s shields flared as it was forced forward. I switch to my 'Sea Eagle' and machete and jump from my hiding spot hitting the I.S. from behind making its shield flare again. It then turned and faced me and we began fighting, well… mainly me dodging and trying to get a few blows in, while it tries to kill me with an oversized sword I guess you could call that fighting, right? "Why are you coming after me?" I ask it sarcastically "I'm not Boss, he's the one who kills the I.S. on foot!" I then swing and our blades met but I was also holding my gun at it so I unloaded into it.
I guess it did something because it forced me back with enough force send me flying across the warehouse and slam into a container leaving a human (my) sized dent there, I recovered in time to barely dodge a strike aimed for my head, and then duck as it moves its blade across the container tearing a large slash mark there. Okay, I know I asked for this but come on! Why the hell would a I.S. come after me!? Huh? Anyone?
I was getting worried that this thing would kill me before I killed it, I jumped away from the machine, but then I saw a dust like substance floating out from the damaged container. It was flour which caused me to remember class earlier today about the 'dust explosion'. This gives me a crazy idea; I take out my lighter and ignite it which caused it to ignite the floating flour causing a fire ball and I was standing a little too close got blown into the air and once again flying across the warehouse and landing on top of another container. I got back up and saw the I.S. get engulfed by the growing fireball…OH SHIT! Fireball is still growing! I jump of the container and head for the exit apparently the other containers had flammable crap inside them and were also exploding and the only thing I'm thinking is…oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!
I got out barely and duck under the fire ball that shot out of the entrance, followed by the warehouse exploding. That thing as got to be dead now! But then my 'Combat intuition' went off.
*Clang*
What the
*Clang**Clang*
Oh you have got to be shitting me! It was still alive! I watched it emerge from the flames damaged and scorched, but it still had it sword in hand and it was still coming towards me. I'm getting reminded of the Terminator series you know when the terminator walks out of the fire and all his skin burned off so he's the robotic skeleton? Anyways I take out my 'Gerund' and fire a shot at it and to my surprise the shields didn't react and it penetrated the armor…thank you armor piercing rounds…anyways the shields are down and I opened fire on it the bullets shredding it, it still moved at me it stepped out of the burning area, while I switched clips, and continued the firing. The I.S. eventually dropped the sword and began crawling and with a burst to its head I finished it off.
I sit down in relief and lower my mask, before I realized what I just did "holy crap!" I said to myself "I just beat an I.S… you know these things are not as hard as they're made out to be" hey if they were as powerful as advertised I'd be dead right now…or maybe I'm just that much of a badass.
It wasn't long before an I.S. team showed. Oh god I hope I don't have to fight these too! "Are you alright" asked who I'm guessing was the squad leader "what happened here"
"I'm still breathing" I answered "Oh and I got attacked by an I.S., and the warehouse blew up in the fighting" I pointed to fire which was now dying out.
"An I.S.?" she asked "what happened where'd it go?"
"I got into a fight with it and won" I said gesturing to the wreckage "that thing is dead now" as I said that the thing came back to life and I reflexively shot a burst at it "correction now it's it dead…probably" after explaining how the fight went and why they were late to counter the rouge I.S. apparently I took the route with least amount of people and moved too fast make an impression in the area so the alert came in late. Actually it wasn't until I blew up the warehouse did they realize something was wrong. Well after that I was free to go and along the way I reunited with Katze.
End of story
"And that's what I did today" I finished taking in Bosses and Chars shocks looks, boss was the first one to recover
"so I take it that's Katze?" asked Boss
"Yep!" I replied while scratching the cat behind the ear "my little bundle of ass kicking…why does that sound so familiar?" it's rhetoric and I'm referring to myself…cocky bastard aren't I? "oh, yeah boss now that I've fought an I.S. I can kind of see how you want to avoid fighting them…"
"…right" replied Boss
"So your girlfriend is going to I.S. academy" I joked as they blushed, well I guess my shot with her was nonexistent.
"We're not dating" they said in unison while blushing
"ahh, you guys know I'm joking." I said while laughing "Well anyways, Char if you're going be piloting an I.S. please don't come back and shoot us in ass" she stared at me a bit but she got the joke and started laughing.
"Are you Ichika Orimura and THE bastard Kazuma" said a deep voice. Great that's how my enemies recognize me now…there's something to be proud off, I'm being sarcastic. We looked up and saw seven foot guy in leather jacket and pants staring down at us. He was wearing shades even though it was dark and he was tanned to.
"I'm the main head of the Gang" he said looking at us as four figures join him two on each side though they were silhouetted and I couldn't make them out though one of them I could tell was female…she had a nice body… "And I challenge your Crew to battle this Saturday!" lightening shot behind him even though there was no clouds in the sky.
Well there we go a day in the life off Kazuma leading up to the end of the last chapter, what he delas with and what he thinks so read and review
Oh and that last par with the lightning was just to make it a cliché bad guy entrance declaration it doesn't mean the he has lightning powers.
Sea Eagle: for any COD players out there this is the basically the desert eagle of brink. You know high-powered, low capacity hand gun.
The ANGER: if anyone as seen the game cover he's the guy on the front, The mask has a somewhat intimidating stitched grin.
The LOST: pretty much a jacket I don't know how to describe. Go to brink wiki and you'll get an idea of what it looks like
The WARRIOR: the pants of this archetype are baggy pants with cloths wrapped around shin...ankle... anyways it's right above the shoes
