A quick heads up, this is going to be a short story, so the chapters are going to be relatively short. Other than that, I've got a small following already, and that's pretty cool.
Eeveeloution expert (Who's your favorite?): Thanks for favoriting and following this story.
andy112138: Yooo! Nice story so far! You started it off pretty well and made it really interesting. Sadly, we have to wait for a while before the next chapter's release. Anyways, I'm really looking forward to the continuation and I can't wait to see when things really get interesting. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for those kind words, and for the favorite and follow.
TeamDeitys: YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! Thanks for considering the harem idea (hope I was the first :P) and Im pretty sure this will be a great story,you got a MC that's not a wimp (if you ever watched harem anime you'll understand C:) and a interesting female! (Tsundere,Tsundere,Tusndere is what I thought in my head.) so yeah hope you'll do this after Pokemon HighSchool! -TeamDeitys (P.S sorry for the late review i wanted to do one but my internet crashed for a couple of days so yeah (also please post chapter 2 an 3)
I pretty much made this story cause of your recommendation, so feel proud with yourself. I didn't want to follow the generic harem formula of perverted or stupid guy gets all the ladies, so I spiced it up a bit. Also, thanks for the favorite and follow.
Guest: So you decided to upload this story. I have to say, this story is kinda like a mix of some of your old stories like the Minecraft one and the one with the boy with the demon powers in Readwave. ...I sound like a sophisticated person right now...
Eh who cares. Anyways this story is eerily similar to your first Minecraft story. But I'm sure that you'll make it unique. Well theres nothing else for me to say so... see you next chapter!
I'm surprised that you're aware of that story, I kinda forgot about it myself. Rest assured, this will not be like my first story
Some Person: Harem story eh? This will be fun to read
Feel like Kenta is gonna be one of those dense people in animes or the person who knows but just tease them around
Also,I guess that Ashley will be one of those shy people or tsunderes
-SP (can't wait for more)
We'll see...we will see
MasterSpikeII (MLP fan?): Thanks for favoriting this story
OrangeBeanGamer (Would make a good let's play channel): thank you for giving this story a favorite and a follow
Bzinga: I must now wait, for this already seems to be an interesting story.
You're wait is over!
The transfer from spreading his body all over the bed like a spider to being confined and restricted by a girl three-fourths his size is not something Kenta wanted to experience. He questioned why couples would indulge in such torturous activities like cuddling.
The boy turned to Ashley, who had kept true to her word and was actually using him as a stuffed animal, burying her face in his chest.
"Ashley…get up…I have to go to school…" She groaned in dismay and just snuggled more into his chest. The boy got up halfway and tried to break her grip, but it was as strong as steel; which surprised him since the witch looked she weighed as much as a rabbit.
"Ashley…let go of me." He tried pushing her off of him, but that only ended up in his loss of balance, sending him crashing down onto the floor with an audible thud. Ashley tumbled down after him and her head ended up nestled against his neck, making the situation as awkward as it was strange. The boy sighed, as his position was really starting to annoy him, and he resorted to his final tactic.
"I have cake."
"REALLY?!"
The girl immediately rebounded and awoke, unfazed about her position for about a solid 5 seconds. "W-what were you trying to do to me?!" She stuttered, slapping Kenta in the face.
"Your fault, you wouldn't wake up or let go of me."
"L-lies!"
"Yah, I would lie to hug a midget like you."
Unfortunately, Ashley did not appreciate his sarcasm and glared at the boy, emitting a low growl that made him so glad he decided not to return her wand.
"You're going where?" She asked the boy as he entered the bathroom to get ready, rubbing the bump on his head.
"School, it's kinda of an important thing." The boy responded, turning on the faucet on and washing his face.
"School…what's that?" She called out from the other side.
"It's a place where you go to learn things. Guess they didn't have those where you came from."
"I don't know, I didn't leave my house much, I learned from what I read and from what Red taught me."
"Whatever, go find something to amuse yourself for the next seven hours."
"Seven hours!" She yelled in disbelief as he exited the bathroom, which was met with a sarcastic and underappreciated "Yah…seven hours."
"What am I supposed to do until then?"
"Not my problem." His voice resonated from in his room.
"Be like that…meanie!" She whined, stomping down the stairs.
"I'm starting to second guess this whole 'letting her stay with me' thing." A groan escaped his lips as Kenta threw a shirt over his head and slid it down until it reached his hips. Taking a quick look outside, the boy had noticed that the sun wasn't even up yet. The sky was a dark blue blur with a few stars scattered about. It had been a while that he had been up before the sun had risen. Usually Sasha had woken him up and/or forced him to get ready. Speaking of…
"Oh shit! I forgot that Sasha will be showing up!" Throwing on his pants and nearly tripping over the stairs in the process, Kenta barely managed to get down with his body still intact; hoping, praying that Sasha was not there.
Unfortunately she was, engaged in a sort of 'staring contest' with Ashley. Neither one said a word or showed any desire of giving up, and were in some eternal standstill. Kenta was wary on if he should intervene or not.
Luckily…or maybe unluckily, Sasha noted the boy's presence, and turned to him with full sass; hands firmly placed on her hips, lips pouted, that piercing and unsettling gaze that made his fists clench as if she would pounce at any given second.
"Kenta…who is this little girl doing in your house?"
"LITTLE?!" Ashley seethed, although it was pretty much ignored.
"She's Ashley, a fifteen year old girl whose mom works with my dad. She's staying with me for a bit." Kenta fabricated, knowing that Sasha could get extremely protective of him.
"She doesn't look fifteen." Sasha commented. "She's like 4'5 at the most."
"I'm still growing!" The witch screamed.
"You've got a year left to grow…" Kenta muttered to himself, knowing that she'd just hit him again if he said that aloud.
"Well then, I guess I should introduce myself. I am Sasha Holland, Kenta's one and only friend." She made that fact very clear, pulling the boy close to her.
"Wait…Sasha…are you the girl who made the cake?" Ashley asked, zoning out after 'Sasha'.
"Umm…yah, I am…" She said in a confused tone, turning towards me.
"It was super yummy! Could you make it again?!" The girl's eyes sparkled with delight as she waited for her answer.
"Okay…it's not really a big hassle for me." Sasha said awkwardly, not used to this sudden change in mood.
"Yay!" The witch cheered, ignoring the odd looks they shot at her. Sasha turned to Kenta and grabbed his hand, yanking the boy out the door.
"So, she seemed…nice." She muttered as she continued to drag Kenta to the bus stop; that was about 10 feet away from Kenta's house.
"She's only been staying for a day, so I can't properly discern if that is how she's like." He responded, waiting for the bus to show up.
"Do you like her?" Sasha asked, he simply shrugged in response. "Ashley is cute and childish, but she's also impulsive and has a temper problem, so it's like a fifty-fifty." He thought to himself.
"One thing for sure…I defiantly won't be bored." He admitted, staring up at the sky.
"Well if you joined the student council with me, you wouldn't be bored. We could even hang out much more often." Sasha suggested, but he shook his head.
"I told you, the student council isn't really something for me." He answered, even when considering the possibility of seeing her during school instead of just before and after.
"If you say so…"
As usual, things went on as they usually did. Today, Kenta spent a majority of math class sitting by the window, just thinking about Ashley and how different life will be now that she's around.
"I hid her wand…but is she still able to use magic?"
"What's the world that she came from like? Is it similar to ours? Can everyone use magic?"
"Who was this Red person she mentioned?"
"Ashley…"
"Yes?"
His green eyes met a pair of reddish-maroon orbs and the surprise jolted him backwards, knocking him off of his chair, letting the startled boy attack the floor backwards.
"Ah good, looks like our new transfer student has awoken you. Good job, Ashley." Our teacher said to the girl.
She was as tall as he was, had a much more 'womanly' body, but had enormous pigtails. No mistake here, that's the Ashley that he knew, with some changes, major changes. The boy rubbed his head and sat back down. He was still confused why she was here in the school, but decided that it wasn't the greatest idea to get the information now.
The teacher told her that she could sit anywhere she'd like, and of course she'd sit to the right of the uncool kid that never talked to anyone, who went by the name Kenta Ryuga.
She plopped down and Kenta could instantly feel the eyes of all his classmates bear into him. It followed tradition that the new kid always gets attention, and Ashley was no different. Everyone was either trying to talk to her, whispering about her origins and if/how Kenta knew her, or just plain staring. The boy gazed over to see what Ashley was doing, and it sort of looked like nothing. She was staring at the teacher, but then looked back down, and started scribbling something down. Ashley then turned to the boy and handed the paper.
'What's going on?'
He rolled his eyes and scribbled down a response.
'He's reviewing Algebra, we're learning you know'
She read the note and glared at him as if she had just been insulted, which was sort of true. She scribbled something down furiously and flicked it at him, which would have taken out his eye if he had not blinked a moment earlier.
'Idiot! I know what learning is! I've just never been to school!'
Kenta shot her a sympathetic look, but the bell rang before he could say anything. Though it was irrelevant because as soon as the boy had put a hand on his belongings, she grabbed him by the ear and dragged the poor soul to what seemed like his death. He cried out in pain and asked how much he had sinned to deserve such a harsh punishment.
"You were making fun of me since I was short, now you're going to pay for that." She growled.
Kenta tore away from her grip and rubbed his right ear. He ignored her ludicrous reason for being upset and focused on something less stupid and more mysterious.
"How'd you get so tall? I took away your wand and there's not enough milk in the world to allow you to grow a foot in a few hours."
She laughed cockily before snapping her fingers and losing a foot in height and going back into her childish form. "I don't only use magic by waving a wand, foolish Kenta. I can also brew potions, such as one to restore my height," she pulled out a vial with a green liquid inside of it. In one quick gulp, her height was restored.
"Well that's great…now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go to my usual spot to eat." Kenta announced as he started walking to his big oak tree that he tended to stay in.
"Wait! You can't just leave me!" She cried out, losing all the confidence in her voice as she tried to grab the boy's arm. However her arm couldn't grasp any part of him as he darted away and scurried up the tree as fast as a squirrel.
"I kind of just did." He stated as he pulled a small sandwich out of his bag. "I'll see you in half an hour."
Ashley grew even more furious and rested her foot in the crevice of the tree and pushed herself up, ascending closer to Kenta.
"Be careful, you'll trip and hurt yourself." He warned, shifting his attention to the witch. She just growled and continued grabbing branch after higher branch.
"Pay attention to the branches you are grabbing, Ashley. If you grab a weak one it will snap and you'll fall." He instructed, becoming more worried with every passing moment.
"Shut up! I can do this by myself!" She growled as she reached for a branch with confidence.
However that confidence fell as quickly as she did as the branch snapped and made her loose her balance. A shrill scream was heard, but the owner found herself relatively unhurt. As the concept of reality returned to her, Ashley found herself on top of her savoir, who seemed to be badly injured.
"My head hurts, scratch that, everything hurts…so I'm pretty sure that means I'm not dead yet." The boy attempted to stretch, but that only resulted in his nerves punishing him for being so reckless.
"Thank god you're awake."
"We were really starting to worry, Kenta…"
The boy forced his head in the direction of the sound, and saw two female figures, one with ginormous pigtails and one with long dark brown hair.
"Ashley…Sasha…what are you doing here? I'm pretty sure classes are still in session, and Sasha, you have your student council duties."
"You're my friend, Kenta. The council can wait." Sasha responded; the boy smiled a little bit at this, even though it made his face hurt. Turning to Ashley, he expected some sort of logical explanation that would make her the victim, but surprisingly she was nearly crying.
"Idiot…why did you do that?! You could have died!" She wailed.
"Well yah, but if you had fallen, you would have died." He explained. "I had a higher survival rate, so I took the risk." Taking her hand in his, he looked at her and smiled, "the important part is that you're okay."
Fighting off a blush, she mumbled something about how she wasn't waiting here the entire time for him to wake up and then walked out of the infirmary without another word.
"Make sure she's okay, could you do that for me?" Kenta asked his friend.
"Sure, but why are you caring so much for this girl?"
"I'm not sure…it's just that part of me wants to protect her…"
Sasha frowned for a brief moment but wiped it off her face and agreed. She walked out with the dignity one would expect from a student council president. The boy smiled slightly before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.
"Dad…why are you leaving?"
"It's my business, son we have to put bread on the table somehow."
"What am I supposed to do while you're gone?"
"That you'll have to figure out. You can take care of yourself, son. I've taught you how to act on your own and survive."
"I know…but I feel lost without your guidance; since mom left you're the only one I look up to."
"I know son, but even when I'm not with you, always remember these things. Number 1, Make sure you can help yourself before helping others. Number 2, don't get emotionally invested unless you know the outcome. Number 3, if someone is in trouble, help them. Only be wary of your own person when helping them, if it's too much for you and you won't make it out, don't bother. However if there's a good enough chance, go for it."
"Ok Dad."
"Be a good boy, I'll see you later, Kenta."
