SECURITY GUARD!
(Kito's POV)
Tristain Academy of Magic, Halkeginia
It's been a day since the duel and Saito haven't wake up yet, the nurse said he'll be fine but he'll really need a rest, my fingers are in well condition once again… thanks to this Academy Infirmary.
Right now I'm at the Academy Rooftops at… I don't know I don't have my watch on my hands right now, its afternoon for sure, recently I check Saito's Condition and Louise said he's fine, he's still sleeping like a dead mummy but he's not dead.
The things that across my mind are, we won the duel yesterday…not because of me or teamwork, it was because of Saito, he survive because of me but we won because of him… but how did I do that ? how did I turn the spear into dust…..*Loading*… arrgh dammit what the hell ? Fuck this I better take a walk right now.
And after that I get down from the roof and walk through the corridor heading to the courtyard, I didn't see any student around, maybe they are studying inside their class right now, I see a lot of maids working around but I haven't seen Siesta.
"…Damn I'm bored!" I shout to myself in the middle of the courtyard and land myself into the grass as I watch the blue sky, I'm in a world where law isn't that strong and humans right didn't exist yet, so the Commoners got trampled over by nobles and have to do anything they told…this is sick, I hate it !
And for myself… I haven't got any progress… still weak and thin, easy to brake and beaten. It's just like 3 years ago…
*Flashback*
(Kito's POV)
Tokyo, Japan
"Finally school is over and weekend's coming, can't wait to be back with my lovely PC!" I said as I was walking on a park on my way home, I just got back from a video games store where I just bought a new Headphone.
There also a few students that spending their time right here, some of them were dating, and some of them also hanging out with their friends…
"-Hey did you hear the rumors that Sakigawa break up with Kisaki?" said a girl passing by on my right, she was walking with her friends
"Whaa ? r-really? tell me more about it !" and those girls start getting noisy behing me as I start walking away, I don't care about those rumors and stuff...
"Huh ? is that Kito !? Hoooy Kito what a nocturnal creature like you doing in this park ?" said someone from distance, he's Kawazaki Reza and he really annoy me a lot and right now he's hanging out with his gang, ignore just keep walking Kito…
"ahahaha Nocturnal ? What does it mean man?" I heard those guys say as I ignore and leave them be…
*Smack* I feel like a ball just fly and hit me right on my head, and I wasn't wrong there is a tennis ball on the ground…
"Hey Kito you alright !? sorry I mean it Ahahaha !" there he goes again, making fun of me
"Y-yeah don't worry about it" I'll teach you a lesson
"Can you give the ball back ? throw it or can you ?" he said asking for the ball while mocking me
"Oh yeah sure" I grab the ball and hold it on my right hand as I watch his movement and position, the wind isn't that strong so it should work
"Are you gonna pass the ball or what ?!" he shouted again, alright… here goes nothing *Throw* I threw the ball with full speed and hit right on his forehead, I didn't expect that to be a headshot… but damn that was awesome
"Reza! You alright?!" his friends scream and run over to him that were lying on the ground.
"G-guys get him!" Shout him with anger because of what I did to his head, shit this is a trouble, in a sec one of the guy run toward me and grab me on the shirt and throw me right on to the ground where everyone is circling around me.
As I was looking around, he stands up "Y-you bastard now you're really brave huh? trying to hit me with a ball?" he said barely stand up while holding his wounded head
"Actually… I'm not trying to hit you, I did hit you!" I answer, I need to calm down, these guys probably gonna beat me apart but I should fight, if I could…
"Hoo… alright then you hit me, but now you better prepare for what we are going to do! Guys!"
"Yeaah!?" shoute the whole group as I stand up
"Give him a lesson !" and one of those guys start running toward me as I easily dodge it to the left and I tackle his leg with my right leg, and he fell to the ground
"Arrrghh take this !" someone shouted behind me and hit me right in the face, I was easily knocked off and fell to the ground, he grab me on the shirt and raise me with his hand, they were really tall and strong, maybe because some of them were in the Karate Club or Soccer club.
I can't breathe and I kick his (Sorry) nuts and put him on the ground, as two of em down… after that I quickly switch my attention to the other 3 (including Reza).
The look on their face are angry and surprised, that's why never look down on a gamer!
The guy on my left try to punch me with his right fist but I block it, and he try to kick me and I manage to dodge it and uppercut his stomach with my right hand.
"Arrghh it hurt!" he screams, I was about to kick him in the face but suddenly Reza just grab me from behind and smash me on the ground, I was knocked off back then… I can't stand up anymore.
"Nice try Kito! But…*Kick*"
"Aaaarrghh" I scream in pain, he just kick me and land his foot on my chest, it hurt so bad…
"…You shouldn't mess with me or any other of my friend! or this is what you got !" he shouted right in front of my face, and then he kick me right on the face causing my nose to bleed
"Hey dude we better go now, that's enough!" one of his friend warn him and he nod
"Alright then… See you later loser!" he shout at me and the other also kick or punch me before they leave, well… I guess it worth it thought!
After that I try to get back to my apartment with face full of brume and bleeding nose.
It was a really bad memories…
*Flashback ends*
(Kito's POV)
That is what I remember… bad memories… better not uncover it, beside I hear footsteps right on top of me
"Who are you!? What are you doing!?" a man in guard uniform appears on top of me
"ooh I was…umm…lying on the ground watching the sky ?" I said… who is this guy anyway?
"hey come with me!" he said and he grab my hoodie and raise me up
"H-Hey! Don't arrest me I didn't do anything wrong I swear! H-hey! Put me down!" I was covered in sweat
"Relax son, I'm not going to arrest you, I just have a few question" he said, and that was a realieve but should I trust him? I mean he looks okay but what is his purpose?
And after that I was taken into some kind of an office, seems to be the Academy Guard office, an adult man in guard uniform sit on his chair "Please sit down" he told me to sit down, and so I take seat.
"I'm sorry sir but what do you want from me?" this guy seems to wear a guard uniform, he has a brown short hair, with a bit beard on his face… seems pretty mature to me, I bet his age is about 35-40.
"Don't worry son, I'm not going to do anything to you, we all know who you are!" he said to me
"What? You know me?"
"yes, you are the one who had a duel with one of the students yesterday, everyone across the academy know it!" he explain, we were not alone, there is a couple of other guard in the office…well they were just chilling out chatting while doing their job, Security guard they are!
"owh yes I do sir…sorry!" I just said sorry to him, why would i do that for?
"There is no need to apologize to me son, I was just gonna tell you a bit thing but before that I would like to introduce myself, I'm Marco Baeron, Headchief of the Tristain academy of magic Guard!
I knew it! He's the headchief "i-I'm Kito, Minatsu Kito… sir"
"So Kito, you're action yesterday is… quite a shock among the nobles or the commoners, and you and the other guy…what is his name?"
"Saito! His name is Saito, and yeah what's about him and me ?"
"The University is now restricting any duel, between Nobles or even Commoners… even though we already know that there won't be any duel anymore except it's start by you or him… but just in case because in fact, there is no such thing in History a Commoners would dare to talk back or even dare to fight a nobles ever! How did you do that? How can you be so brave?" he ask
"Well… the thing is back in my world, this nobles or commoners thing doesn't exist, there is no such things called the Commoners anymore, well maybe there are a few nobles in my world but it doesn't mean anything so special, we were protected by the same law and be serve equally, so everyone could live in peace in my world, if you're asking how's that possible, because this Nobles and commoners thing do exist in my world…a couple hundred years ago, and the result of this system cause Revolution and chaos, like for example France Revolution, many nobles were executed because the anger of the commoners itself, and that's why Boom! Those kind of system were gone!" I explained to him long and clear, thanks to Assassin's creed Unity now I could explain about this stuff pheww…
"Hmm interesting… I was just wondering how the commoners did all that, I mean what I know is the Nobles are stronger because they can use Magic…"
"ah I forgot to tell you that there is no such thing as magic in my world!"
"What!? Then how do you people live each day without magic?"
"We didn't use magic, we use something called Technology!"
"Technology? What is that?"
Owh man this gonna take a long time to explain, beside I'm not a teacher or even better, Engineer!
"Well… how do I explain umm… alright how do you guys light the night?" I ask him
"With torch or candle"
"alright, can you please close the door and the window ?" I'm gonna show him something
"Alright then Marquez, Vanessa! Close the door and the window!" and they close the door and the window and leave the room dark, now is my turn.
I open my bag (I always carrying a bag) and grab something inside
"W-what are you-*Click*" and I turn on my flashlight, and cause these guards surprised.
"T-The Stick is glowing ?" he said in shock
"This is called flashlight, and it's a technology from our world and it used to shine the dark!" I explain
"H-how did you do that, how is that possible to shine something in the dark without fire or even magic?"
"Well my people on my world are the one who invented it and he's probably dead already, so it's impossible to ask him, I may ask a few scientist or engineer from my world but there is no way back to my world for now, I'm stuck you know? That's why I've been wandering around what the hell is going on and what should I do…" as I stop talking, and turning off the flashlight, the room gone quiet and two guard start opening the door and the window again
"…Kito… you wanted to go back to your world isn't it ?" He said
"Yeah… I do… I really do but… how? I don't even know what should I do…" I'm really depressed right now, somehow I really miss home at this rate…
"Kid! Listen we can't take you back to your world…" a guard behind me who seems to be younger than the headchief, seems to be around 20-23, and he's laying his head on the wall
"…but your act back then, really surprised us, the nobles were worried and concern about your act, but we? We are Commoners!" he said, wait he's a commoners? Even the Headchief?
"Commoners? You all? " I ask in wonder
"Yes we are" said the headchief, he's also a commoners
"you were really inspired most of us, and show us that the commoners is not that weak!" said a girl guard, I think her name is Vaaa…Vanessa!
"…and Son, I forgot to ask you about one more thing!"
"W-what is it ?"
"The spear, the report say that there is a spear coming toward you from behind but the spear turn into dust… what's your secret, how did you do that? Do you hold special power or something?"he ask the question that I can't explain or even answer.
"I'm sorry sir… but this one, there is no explanation for it, because I don't have any idea how's that happen… maybe luck is on my side sir, glad I'm still alive!" I said with a little bit grateful word in the end
"haha you must be a really lucky kid!" said the young guard, he's around 20-25 "Listen, there are greater danger in this world and it probably doesn't exist in your world, some of it were magical and unexplained, I can't tell you anything about magic, but there Is one thing that I can tell you!" explain Marco.
"W-what is it sir?" I ask him seriously
"Your Skill!"
"my…skill?" what's wrong with my skill?
"your skill… it will be better if you improve your skill, there are better use for your skill you must improve it!"
"B-but how?"
"You'll need a teacher, Brian can help you!" he said, Brian?
"What! Why me?" said the guy who seems to be Brian itself
"Because you're the one who can teach him, you're the leader of the main guard forces so I think you should do it! Got that Brian?"
"Y-yes sir!" he said
"Alright good, Kito you go with Brian and remember your power deserve for better use so keep that in your mind to get better, I'm gonna go to the principal to ask for permission!"
"What permission sir?" Ask Vanessa
"Permission for Kito to be one of the guard in this academy!" he said, wait me the guard?
"Wait I'm going to be one of the guard in this Academy!?" I ask in surprised
"Yes you are, temporary… but we will see, alright? Good get back to your work people!" he said and the other guard shouts "Yes sir!" with a salute.
Me? Become a guard in this academy? Can I even handle such things? It is a question that I have to answer by myself.
"Hey Kito isn't it?" said someone behind my while grabbing his sword and shield and put on his back
"Y-yeah I am!" I answer
"Good you're coming with me, we have lot things to do!" he said, this guys seems to be the one who called Brian I think…
And after that Brian take me into an empty field, there are a few guard who were running across the field over and over, they seems to be exercising.
"Alright Kito do you hear what the Headchief told you?" he said giving his attention on me
"Yeah, my power deserves a better use!" I said to him
"Good now because you are going to be a guard and the headchief give me responsible to take care of you, you're gonna train with me and you have to do everything that I say!"
"A-alright!" oh shit this going to be a hard day, I'm not used to exercise!
"Alright before we start I'm gonna introduce myself first, my name is Brian Ricardo, I'm the leader of the Guard main forces in this Academy!"
"Guard main forces? You mean there are many forces in this Academy?"
"Yes indeed, I'm with the main forces which is the elite forces in this academy, we react to the most critical situation and condition which we must prepare for everything, like protecting the Principal or guarding over something precious" he explain
"What about the other Forces?"
"The other forces are the Second forces, The Third Forces and the Fourth Forces. The Second forces are the one who guard the students and the inner side of the Academy, the Third Forces are the one who guard the gates and the wall, and the last is the Fourth Forces which is the one who guard and sweep out the exterior area of the Academy. You get it?" he said
"Yeah I get it!" I said with a nod
"alright good, we won't start your training today but tomorrow morning right here we will start your first training, alright? Because you are about to become guard in this Academy you must know the drill!"
"And what's the drill ?"
"Alright here's the drill listen carefully because I won't repeat for you!" and then he explain everything to me, from the breakfast to night patrol and much more.
*a moment later*
"You get it?" he ask
"Yes I do!"
"Alright then…that's enough for today, it's dawn already so we should get inside and oh yeah? Where have you sleep these day before you met us?"
"i-uhh…sleep…anywhere I could, the floor, the rooftops, or even the Park chair."
"then tonight you'll be sleeping right there!" he said pointing into a building
"I'm gonna sleep right there?"
"yes you are because me and the other will also sleep in there, alright get your stuff and be ready to move in, I'll see you later and don't forget to be here before late night!" said Brian to me
"Y-yes I will!" alright now I better take a look inside the Academy and probably visit Saito
And after that I took my time off to visit Saito, hope he's okay or even better… awake…
(Louise's POV)
Tristain Academy of Magic dormitory, Halkeginia
Hmmph… it really sucks to spent whole day reading books and looking over someone… but he's my familiar so there is nothing wrong with it… but why? Why he really work that all out just for me?
"….Idiot…" a whispered without realization, I was sitting on my chair watching over him like usual when suddenly *Knock-knock* I heard knock on my door
"Coming!" who is it at this time? I open the door as I saw a man in black hood jacket (Hoodie) with a bag on his back, it was Kito!
"G-good evening Louise!" he said
"Good evening, what's wrong?" what is he doing at this time?
"Nothing is wrong, I was just wandering and how is Saito?"
"He's totally fine, but hasn't awake yet, the doctor said to wake him up soon as possible required a special elixir and it's sooo expensive!"
"So… you didn't get the elixir?"
"Of course I do, I bought the elixir! But he hasn't awake yet, I guess it still take time for him to recover!" I just told him the truth beside…actually… thanks to him Saito didn't go too far back then.
"Now how's your money?"
"there are only a couple hundred new gold coins with me…" I said closing my eyes.
"Well it's for your Tsukaima, and I'm surprised that you did that much for your Saito, but it was the right thing to do as his master! Wow it's almost late night I better go now, see yaa tomorrow!" and he leave in a hurry and closed the door.
Geez…what's wrong with him? Leaving already in such a hurry… nah whatever I better go change and sleep, today is a tiring day and I just want to go sleep already
And when I was changing clothes I take a look at Saito… he's still sleeping, I hope he wake up soon… It's not because I'm worried or anything it's just I'm SICK OF SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR! "Hmmph!"
(Kito's POV)
Security Guard Safe House, Tristain Academy of Magic Exterior, Halkeginia
I took my step walking on the grass heading to the building that Brian told me to go to, I'll be resting in this place huh? thank god I don't have to sleep on the floor or on the grass again!
"Kito! Over here just come quickly you dummy!" Said a woman in Shirt and Brown Leggings, it was Vanessa
"Uh-Yeaah coming!" better get my stuff inside right away, I wonder how's" my room looks like…
"Did you take everything you need?" she ask me
"Y-yeah it's on my bag right here" and I show her my bag, it was not a really small nor large bag
"Only that? Are you sure you bring everything?"
"of course I'm sure, beside I came to this world unprepared so I only carry this much stuff!" well at least there is 2 set of my favorite outfits in this bag and I carry my phone, PSP, Headphone, and some my school books that I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna totally use it.
"Alright then I guess that can't be helped, anyway just get in, Brian is waiting with the others." She said, and soon I get inside carrying my bag and heading into the the dining hall, because she said Brian's inside and after I open the door *Clek*
"You're late! What are you doing this late around the Academy anyways?" Brian ask while sitting on his chair waiting for his meal to be ready, next to him is an empty seat but there a glass of water ready on the table and it was Vanessa seat, I took a seat in front of Brian Seat.
*Sit down*"Listen…I'm visiting my friend a while ago sorry if I'm late" I said rubbing my head off
"Owh is that so...? it's alright then chill out!" he said laughing lightly and put his both arms and crossing hi s head
"You sure take it lightly Brian! But he's totally right Kito, chill out we may be a Guard but we are not the army we took care of each other and try to understand and help each other, we are team right!?" Said Vanessa, wow she is… Pretty kind and also looks pretty also, she has a long dark red hair.
But I smelled something good around here, and I thought that someone is cooking"Hey! Someone is cooking isn't it?" I ask to they both
"Yes it was Vasquez, he's right there on the kitchen…"he said pointing into the kitchen direction"oh yeah! you better put your bag in your room before we eat, your bed is number 9, that way to the left you'll see a lot of bed!" said Brian telling me the directions so I get up and search for the room quickly.
"…This way…to the left…aha! There it is" I enter the room and saw a lot of bed, not the best bed in the world like I had in my apartment in japan but at least it's better than staying outside and sleeping on the floor!
I walk to the ninth bed and put my bag on the bed "…and here it is, hello lovely ninth bed!"
"Kito! Food is ready!" Shout Vanessa on the door looking at me!
"Ah alright!" good I'm starving…
I walk back to the dining hall right away with Vanessa in front of me, soon as I'm back at the dining hall I saw a man in cooking outfits serving the food with straight face, "Ah like usual Vasquez!" shout Vanessa rushing to her seat and take a seat.
I did the same too"…"
"It's Vasquez he's our chef in this place, no one cook better than him so he's the one who always cook at time like this!" said Brian, I see this man quite a while ago while I was interrogated in the office earlier, he's the silent type… he didn't talk much at the time I was interrogated nor this time, he just sit on his chair and start eating.
"…Uhh can I ask something?" I said
"What is it?" answer Brian
"Why there are 6 plate and 6 seat while there was only 4 of us?" I ask
"Oh right we didn't tell you earlier, there were 5 of us originally, plus you we become six!" said Vanessa and continuing her dinner.
"Those two should be here soon so shut up and eat your meal already geez…" said Brian
"Geez Brian don't be rude like that you Meanie" said Vanessa yelling at Brian
"Huh? but it isn't good to eat while talking!" said Him
"But we must enjoy this moment beside there are Kito here so take it easy you dummy!" Said Vanessa mocking Brian off
"W-what did just you say?!" and they both take their stand and curse at each other, and Vasquez was just sitting right there and enjoying his meal without giving a care of his surrounds!
"They're here" said Vasquez Straightly without expression or even looking at his surrounds.
I heard the sound of the opening door *Cleck-Cring!* by the way there is a bell attached to the door, I heard footsteps coming from the entrance hall
"We're back!" heard a sound of a middle age man entering the dining hall with his light guard armor
"Ah Thomas! Back from the job like usual?" said Vanessa welcoming him cheerfully
"Yeah like usual, geez it was so boring I hope a giant golem or something came up!" yell Thomas sitting in his chair
"Don't talk like that, what happen if it's come to true?" mock Brian
"Sister!" suddenly rush a girl in dark red hair just like Vanessa, but her hair is a bit shorter
"Ah Stephanie!" and they both hugging each other, so they were siblings, her lil-sister are really cute with her Light guard armor and Ribbon on his right hair…
"Guys! I like introduce our new member here is Kito Minatsu!" said Brian pointing his hand to me
"Ah finally new member, it's been a while since we had new member coming to this team!" said Thomas taking of his chestplate and putting his Helmet on the table
"Nice to meet you! I'm Minatsu Kito, call me Kito if you please" I said greeting him
"Thomas, the name is Thomas, hope we can work together as a team" he said
"Hi Kito! I'm Stephanie and Nice to meet you!" she said sitting on my left as she greet me in cheerful
"Hi there Stephanie!" I said greeting her back
"Alright! Now because we all here let's go dig in shall we?" Said Vanessa, I see Brian be like 'Yeah-yeah whatever tch…' acting cool in front of the team, but become silly when arguing with Vanessa last time.
And after that we spent the dinner in joyful and comfy, it was really fun Vanessa do talk a lot to me and she ask about my favorite food, Sports, and things to do. While Thomas join the fun by asking how I came here, Stephanie was just enjoying her meal but sometimes talk to, Brian Just eat quietly and watching the scene with an annoyed face, and in the other hand Vasquez were just…eating silently with straight face.
And after that we all go preparing for our night time, Me, Vasquez, Brian and Vanessa were getting ready for our bed time while Thomas and Stephanie going back to the academy on a job for guarding something important they said. They also said that this is a night shift and tomorrow is Vanessa and Vasquez Turn to guard the night. But I haven't ask what did they guard and why for…
After changing into my T-shirt and taking off my shoes, I'm heading to my bed as I lay down on top of it and think about…My home for some reason…missing my home, missing my dad, missing my… Computer is a big deal and I have to deal with it, but… I don't know how to get back, even the people said they don't know how to bring me and Saito's back! I guess I'm gonna be stuck here for a while until I know what the hell and how to get back! And after that I close my eyes and call it a day!
*The Next morning*
"Morning! Dummy! Wake up on your first day as a guard!" I wake up by the sound of Brian shouting at me, i'm waking up on the cold floor, looks like last night my sleep were pretty comfort and I didn't realize I fell to the floor.
I get up and grab my hoodie and left most of my stuff here
"So where we going?" I ask Brian as we both walk to the front yard
"we're just going to do our usual schedule, Exercise in the morning! Nothing special" explain Him, oh man Exercise…shouldn't be that hard, just like Physical Education I hope so
We both walk from the front yard and meet up with the rest of the team inside the Academy courtyard, everyone is there including Stephanie and Thomas!
"Alright everybody's Ready !?" Shout Vanessa taking the lead, Brian were just standing next to her
"Ready!" everyone shout including me
"Alright just like usual people, 10 laps…" ah good 10 laps around the courtyard shouldn't be that hard
"…Around the Academy!" finish Brian, W-WHAT?! 10 LAPS AROUND THE ACADEMY?
"Seriously? Around the academy?" I ask Brian
"Yes, it's only 10 laps Kito, I usually take 20" oh my gosh he just said 20 laps!
"Mine is 15!" said Vanessa
"And I'm 20, just like Brian" shou Thomas
"i-uhh 12 Laps?" said Stephanie
And the only one who keep his mouth shut is Vasquez,
"How about you Vasquez?" I ask him
"…30.." Oh My god!
"alright on my count everyone 1,2…3! And everybody start running including me.
I ran about 10 laps around this freaking huge Academy, the others do more than 10, Brian does 20, Vasquez just did 30! And the other's around 10-15 laps.
*after the Run*
"Oh my god…i…can't get up!" I said exhausted
"C'mon Kito that was only 10 laps you got, you can still do more right?" ask Vanessa
"More? 10 laps around the courtyard? Yes I do, but around the Academy? I'm out!" I said
"Just take it easy Kito, it is still a beginning for you more should come so you better prepare yourself with exercise and training." Said Brian
He's right! This is only the beginning for me, more should come and I better prepare my ass off. And after that the others go back to their daily routine job as guard, except for Brian because his job is to train me first, so yeah… Let's do this!
