Hey, guys. Been a while since I did a chapter for this fic but it's fun to write on this. It's certainly fun to start my holidays off like this.
The Division annoyed the crap out of me last time so I better did this before I go off to bed. But it was fun.
The part where Mattheus meets Reiri and where he talks about Kerlongsj and Chifuyu is a bit take from my other fics. It's also helping with my frustration on Sunday evening. Got whole things to be frustrated on. And you guys will also get some background info if you guys are too lazy to check out my other works.
Not that I mind. If you guys enjoy this fic and don't want to read something else, I don't really find that a problem.
But besides the explaining of both technologies, those who are new to my fics, better get to know my OC's. Now before you guys make an escape, I do use OC's, yes but they're not your typical ones.
They're not harem snatchers, (unless you call Chifuyu one of his harem members, sorry, if I wanted to make my story work, I had to part. Besides, does she really needs to be in Ichika's harem?) And they don't steal the spotlight, they share the spotlight.
They're added to make the story better work, not to annoy. But if you guys wanna make a run, I won't stop you.
Even so, this fic seems like it's liked by you guys.
I got eight followers, eight favorites and seven reviews. Besides that, I got nearly five hundred views and the word count is eight thousand words.
In comparison with another story, I got two favorites, four followers and nine reviews with forty thousand words and nine hundred fifty views in five months. So I can say that I'll continue to write on this.
But before we begin, I want to give you guys my ideas on Masou Gakuen HxH. Unlike Infinite Stratos, it doesn't seem to mind being an ecchi series. It embraces the fact making this a series filled with over the border action hentai actions.
That's why this anime surprised me in another way. When I started this anime, I just wanted to get my mind in the gutter with some nice stuff happening but because I didn't expect much, this anime seemed to more than just a fanservice-filled anime. It tried to tell a story about the Heart Hybrid Gears, Kizuna, and his family with the girls having their own problems.
Okay, they rushed through it but maybe because of that, I enjoyed this series more than the fanservice. I also read about the Light Novels.
Yes, Masou Gakuen HxH fills in every fetish you can imagine but I have watched worse series with fanservice filled animes. This tries to tell a plot and it doesn't fuck it up with several clichés. Main characters like him and Basara Toujou (Shinmai Maou No Testament) are beginning to come out. I'm liking that evolution.
And there are more messed up anime. Someone of my friends once recommended Eiken. I think that after watching a review, I wasn't going to do that.
This, I stayed for the whole ride of twelve episodes. And I'm in for the second season if that ever comes. I just hope they don't pull an Infinite Stratos on it if you guys catch my drift. I also read some of the LN in the four volumes. While they rushed the anime, the LN takes the time for this anime. Which I like.
Sorry for this rather long AN but I'm not done yet.
If you haven't read it, this story will feature OC's from my older works. At this point, we got Mattheus and Joel. The Nanite Hackers, well, Kerlongsj is just a bit mentioned but he and his group will come later. I'll have an idea that will work out just fine. What that is and how it will work out, well, that's a secret. But for now, I want you guys to get used to my Graduated Student and his Irish Street Punk.
A few minutes before the landing.
Mattheus flew next to the blond haired woman, whose bust was putting Houki to shame and her outfit showed a lot more than he was actually comfortable with but it had some more modesty in it, somehow. He was examining her. For a note, her skills, and weapons. Not her beauty.
He might be a full blooded male but he was in his twenties and he was a taken man. Natasha wouldn't really mind if he got a harem himself at some point but for Mattheus, he didn't think that would be nice.
While that might sound weird, due to his unique status as male Pilot, he could be really valuable to other countries. So while it might sound wrong, he and Ichika racking up girls would be at some point accepted. He even asked his boss for that help. But that was just asides the point of things.
Even if he compared the fighting abilities of her and the black haired sword fighter, whose bust was maybe less but that didn't do anything to her own beauty, she was also someone to admire. She was a bit like Houki, having a sharp, Tsundere air around her. Growing up in an environment seemed that he got a scent for that.
The Silverette was the one who got his attention. She could hand his ass over to him better than anyone else in this world could.
The boy, on the other hand, was weak but compared to the others, he was smarter and more prepared for fighting as an officer. So he won some points in Mattheus book. His machine was also rougher and less worked out. Like someone dumped while working on it.
Heart Hybrid Gear? Mattheus still couldn't imagine that he heard that once. And it made the idea that they were in another world a lot more plausible to him.
It was simple to explain. If this Heart Hybrid Gear did exist in his world, even as a super-secret weapon the Hackers would have known about it. But no country, origination or army would work on it. If it gave men the ability to just pilot a version of the IS, the "perfect" world order would be fucked over again.
Not that Mattheus gave a care about that world. He was a traitor to the Infinite Stratos but a soldier to the Hackers. And he found a place he was okay with hanging around with.
At this point, Mattheus could use his captain. Not just the fact of him being here but to have someone to watch your back. You see, Mattheus took the job of sleeper agent pretty well. it was not like a real soldier but the mental kickback was pretty huge on a guy who started out as civilian later on.
Not that the Hunter regretted becoming a soldier but the whole secrecy, that was a lot on your back. Especially because it wasn't that long ago, maybe two weeks after he lost his comrades, the Metal Claw Soldiers were murdered out. While he willingly did the things he did, he wasn't proud of it. And that was beside the shit at the ISA started to calm down with that crazy chick after Ichika.
Mattheus turned his head to the others. They didn't speak and Mattheus didn't really mind that. one thing he noticed on Kizuna. He really looked a lot like Ichika but the two still had some differences. While their faces and hair were the same, the structure of the hair was different. How was unexplainable but it was that. Ichika also had a more triangular face and the eyes were brown of the Knight while Kizuna was grey-blue.
As for the body, Ichika's body was formed by the love for Kendo and Byakushiki being a close range unit, Ichika could be considered stronger. Just a soldier's or sleeper agents view.
But that aside, they shared a lot of similarities. So maybe that Reiri could be considered very similar to Chifuyu. That might be a good reason. For Kerlongsj not to be here. Eventually, they reached the island. Mattheus' mouth had fallen open.
While he saw a lot of crazy shit, (the only thing that didn't cause him to go insane or raise eyebrows at the Hackers or pilot antics) was because of his former life and her generally laid back attitude. He could shrug off a lot.
This wasn't a thing. The floating island frankly blew him from his socks. The city was just on water, floating around. made in a circle, it was more like someone smashed server cities and places in one. While buildings had risen in the air, the main point of the island seemed to be a school. Mattheus had no time to hide his surprise.
He was forced to land by the girls. When landed, the four deactivated their units. Mattheus noticed that none of them carried a jewel or bracelet compared to his own cheek where five brown rings and one white ring hung on.
The black haired girl noticed that and pointed out accusatory one finger. "Hey, what is that? take those off this instance. Piercings are a violation of public morals." Mattheus raised an eyebrow on her outrage but put his hands in his pockets.
If she wanted him to take those rings off, she had to take them from his cold dead body. "Oh, Hayuru. Please cut him some slack and don't be such a stud. He's just new to this place. And they suit him."
The blond haired one spoke in a soft tone, nearly motherly. While that was a pain, Mattheus nodded. Her outfit was really showing. Why the hell would you fight like a bikini babe in that outfit?
"Thanks for the compliment. And for the record, I don't wear those rings for fun. Besides, I wipe my ass to public morals. Didn't pass the twenty to let someone ever tell me what I can do. Those rings are the form of my closed up unit."
Mattheus words were barely out of his mouth when he noticed how disturbing it was. The four started to him, pure shock of the announcement. "What?" Kizuna was the first one to react, gripping by the shoulders, surprise, and shock, Mattheus cool headed thinking to raise an eyebrow as the only effect.
"You mean that those rings are your core?" The girls joined alongside Kizuna, wanting to hear from Mattheus who was shaking his head. "I get that you mean if I can remove them. Yeah, I can. But before you ask. You have to remember I pilot a different machine then you. So that might make a difference. Please remember that. I'll tell you guys later or you'll hear from others. But."
He removed Kizuna's hands. "I'll promise I'll tell you but I can remove my core. But please keep in mind that that would kill me and that the machine isn't meant for that. So sorry I can't' help you. I can remove the rings for let's say improvement or repair but that'd be it. I can leave my machine but I can't remove my core."
Mattheus saw hope going up in Kizuna's eyes but it was better that he kept him down to earth. Fairy tales don't exist. You can find a happy life but there would be sorrow in it;
Kizuna sighed. The sounds of the night had filled the air, giving the boy disappointment. He couldn't be mad at Mattheus. He couldn't help it. But still, his face fell, while Mattheus tried to keep a sympathetic face. For some reason, removing the core might seem important.
"I understand." Taking a heavy breath, Kizuna turned to his team.
"Yurishia, Aine, Hayuru. We have carried out our mission perfectly. And due to the late hours, I hereby give you girls permission to go to your rooms. I'll see this guy to my sister. I'll see you all tomorrow."
Silently, the girls celebrated that fact they could return to their warm, soft beds. Relief washed over their faces.
"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow," Yurishia said to her captain, a playful wink left behind. "See you tomorrow, Hida-kun," Hayuru said and left. "Good night, Kizuna," Aine answered coolly and walked away.
They all walked in the same direction. Mattheus guessed the building would go to was the girls' dorm room. The Hunter hoped for a bed but looked to Kizuna, knowing his ordeal wasn't over. Without speaking, Kizuna walked away and he was followed by the older guy.
The silence between the two men was comfortable enough not to break. Kizuna opened the door, keeping it like that so Mattheus could enter. First, the Hunter looked around and he pulled up his hoodie, due to him entering the building.
The hoodie covered his hair. By letting the hair grown to a certain thickness, he was comfortable with that. Mattheus was also allergic to combing his hair, the hair was a mess, covering a part of his forehead.
Burying his hands in his pockets, he looked around.
The Hunter felt like he was thrown into a science fiction movie or a more advanced time. Not even at the ISA or at the Hackers were such labs. He looked around, halting and examining those rooms. His harsh training made him sharp. While he wasn't nearly at Laura's level as a soldier, as strong as Chifuyu or as much a veteran like Kerlongsj.
But even so, Mattheus was more than your average guy. And he could feel sadness and sorrow coming from the past of these labs.
He turned to Kizuna who walked back. "Eh, Hida was your name, right? I don't think it's polite to use your first name?" The gray eyes met the light blue. The boy nodded.
"Yes, and your name is Mattheus? At least your first name? Weird name for an American?" Mattheus grinned and dragged his hand over his face. Due to his appearance, blond, tall and for some reason considered handsome, it was often thought, by Eastern that Mattheus was an American.
"I'm Flemish." He exasperatedly said. "I come from the Northern Part of Belgium, not from the US." Kizuna blinked from the response before he relaxed. "So you are from near Antwerp." Mattheus tilted his head before the radars in his head sprung. Right, that fairy tale. Weird that most Japanese knew Belgium by a fairy tale that wasn't so popular at his place at all.
"I studied there at my high school. But what's this place? Some sort of lab?"
Kizuna face expressed hurt before going to a more neutral mood. He nodded before he opened his mouth.
"Yes, this is the place where the HHG, short for the Heart Hybrid Gears, were created and developed by doctor Nayuta. But my sister will tell you more."
While Mattheus wanted to know more, he noticed how distant Kizuna became from those short sentences. So he shut up, following the boy.
One thing he did notice was a photo with some people in lab coats. One woman caught his eye. Wearing a brown shirt under a white lab coat, she carried a smile on her face. A smile that had more beneath it. using his head, the name of the labs, Kizuna's hesitation. That woman must be Nayuta and she had some connection with Kizuna.
They stopped at a door. "It's Kizuna." From an unseen monitor, the reply came.
"Enter." Like most of the lab, it was in white. Mattheus guessed things must have cost a fortune. Several books stopped away in bookcases, but a lot of technology was also around. "Impressive," Mattheus said without any form of sarcasm.
But he felt the intention of this place. The Infinite Stratos was meant for grandstanding or the Hackers, meant for secrecy and underground, this place was meant for fighting and a final solution.
With just a quick glance, the Hunter had seen that the woman was petite. She had light brown hair, cut in what he thought would be a bob and she wore glasses. She worked on a keyboard, not even looking up.
Ah, the type of person that found it difficult to interact with others but due to her high intelligence or work, it was accepted. Mattheus still hated the ideas that sometimes ruled the world. It took ages from him to break out his shell. And he wasn't allowed to be like that because his intelligence was just average.
The other woman got his attention rather quickly. His mouth had slightly fallen open when he was looking at her. She was tall, more than most Japanese women, easily on his height but that wasn't his biggest reason for his dropped mouth. It was what he predicted. The woman looked a lot like Chifuyu. You could say she was nearly the same.
Unlike Mattheus who wore his white sweater, a modified version of the ISA male inform (the outfit of Mattheus is similar to Ichika, the biggest difference is that Mattheus wears a hoodie instead of a shirt and due to his height, it's meant for a taller guy like him), she wore an outfit quite similar to an uniform of this school. Underneath her shirt, she wore a vest that was just covering the shoulders. How would those remain at one place when she ran? It fitted her, that much was pretty damn sure. Underneath the vest, she wore a skirt. It wasn't short but it didn't reach her knees so a lot was left open.
She had black hair, just a shade less than Chifuyu's own raven-haired. Like her brother, Reiri had gray-blue eyes. In terms of female assets, she didn't lose to Chifuyu. She could easily beat or even Chifuyu in breasts department. Her thighs got his attention even more. Unlike Chifuyu who covered them off, she had them open, giving a nice look at her thighs.
There was one major difference between Chifuyu and Reiri and that was set them most apart. Chifuyu namely carried her hair in a ponytail while Reiri had her hair hung loose.
As for aura, Mattheus found she was similar to Chifuyu. She had a leadership aura around her. If Mattheus had to guess, she didn't allow slip ups or anything like that. Her attitude was also brought on family members he guesses so when Kizuna addressed her as neechan, Mattheus held his surprise hidden that Reiri didn't smack him like Chifuyu would do with Ichika.
"Oh, welcome back, Kizuna. And this is?" Reiri turned to the young metal head who saluted. "Mattheus Adjzof. The pilot of Lavathenian. Flemish exchange student of the ISA. First-year student." He brought his words out like a soldier.
Reiri looked up and down. He didn't impress her with his attitude. Which was the weird thing? Mattheus never changed his behavior even after becoming a soldier. He still remained laid back, cool-headed and was seldom impressed. But the point was that Mattheus often impressed a lot of people with his ways.
In all honesty, only Kerlongsj didn't write him off as a lost cause. He knew what Mattheus could do. Rarely, he was given a second chance to impress. But those who allowed him that one, were often blown away by the Hunter. Reiri sighed.
"So you are here instead of Ichika Orimura?" Mattheus nodded.
"Why did you take his place?" Mattheus looked her in the eye. If this was going to end in some way, ugly, he could fight back.
"Because I don't think that taking a sixteen-year-old kid away isn't the best idea. But I do not suppose you brought me here for chitchat." Reiri was a bit cut off by his blunt reply but recovered quickly enough.
"Indeed. We have seen the machines you used. Those aren't Heart Hybrid Gears like ours but they are, what did you call them, mister Adjzof?"
"Infinite Stratos, ma'am." He answered resolute, hoping she'd believe him.
"Ah, right. Adjzof. Two hours ago, on 11pm26, an Entrance opened in the ocean. Those have never happened before as they only appeared on land masses when they were big enough. Instead of an attack, we saw an island showing. Because it was impossible to contact it, we have sent out a task force, Amaterasu. We encountered you and the rest is known on both sides. What can you tell me?"
Mattheus relaxed a bit. "We don' know it either, Miss Hida. We felt a shock and next thing we know. We're thrown into this world that it isn't ours. Four of us were sent out to meet you guys. And well, I was a volunteer to be taken, prisoner. May I ask what your plans are with me and with the ones at my school?" Reiri crossed her arms and the room temperature seemed to drop.
"That depends on you. If you tell me the truth and tell me about your HHG?"
"IS." Mattheus cut her off.
"Excuse me." She asked, surprised to be cut off. Kizuna wanted to act but a quick glance of his sister cut him off.
"It's not an HHG. It's an Infinite Stratos or an IS for short."
"Okay, your IS. We will make contact with your school. But before we begin, what are you?"
Mattheus decided to take a bit more ground in this. "I'm a student but if you want to know what role I take on the battlefield. I'm a soldier, not general." Reiri nodded.
"Okay, let's begin. Kizuna, I'd like you to retire." She said but it seemed that someone had to leave.
"Don't worry. Go to sleep. It's going to be a day early and you need to rest some hours." Mattheus nodded on the concern. Truth be told, he liked some rest as well. But he had things to explain and bigger worries.
"Okay, good night neechan." He left but not before turning over his sister. Mattheus and he locked eyes and Kizuna shrugged. There was nothing his sister couldn't handle.
"Very well. Before we officially begin. My name is Reiri Hida. I'm the commander and principal of Ataraxia. The woman who will record this interrogation is Shikina Kei." She gestured to the woman behind the computers. Or what Mattheus guessed were computers.
"Now, you told me your name, Mattheus Adjzof." Brining Mattheus' attention to her.
"But we want more information from you. You said you were Flemish." Mattheus nodded again.
"Okay, first of all, how old are you?"
Mattheus opened his mouths, his lips feeling a bit dry. "Twenty-one." He said. Reiri cocked an eyebrow and if Kei was surprised, she didn't show it. Mattheus guessed she never showed emotion. "Can you repeat that?" Mattheus sighed and grabbed for his pocket.
A hand around his wrist stopped his movement. "What do you think you're doing?" Reiri asked him, the iron grip around his wrist painfully uncomfortable, her voice freezing as eyes.
'Fuck, this chick is scary. If she and Chifuyu meet, that's horrifying. And they would meet. Oh, am I happy that I am not her brother. Or Ichika.' He looked back at her.
"I'm taking my wallet to show my ID. That should be proof for you." He said and Reiri let him go. Mattheus showed his card and she read over it. She shook her head.
"I don't think this will justify. If what card says is true, you should be thirty-six, not twenty-one." Mattheus facial expression could be described as 'What the heck are you telling me?'
Reiri returned the card. "Kei, if you could." The woman glanced at him and for some reason, Mattheus imagined she was examining him. After a while, an electronic voice popped up.
"He is right. His body is telling me he is twenty-one. We can go on." Mattheus had no idea how she could tell that and he didn't want to know.
"Okay, Adjzof. I will keep my promise not to carry out any acts of violence towards you or the school where we will arrive around noon. Do you swear, to tell the truth?" Mattheus nodded.
"I'll tell you the truth but I'm afraid that it might sound a little crazy." Reiri sighed.
"As long you're truth to your word. Frist of all. Do you not know what those words mean? Heart Hybrid Gear?" Mattheus scratched his left cheek because his rings were in the way of his right.
"I'm guessing that are those machines that Kizuna and his companions have. But that's it." Reiri nodded.
"Next term. Magitech weapon." Mattheus shook his head.
"Nope. Never heard of."
Reiri thought over the next word.
"Entrance?" Again, the Hunter shook his head.
The last conversation brought some temperature. The next term brought it back down. Mattheus could read disgust and hate over her face.
"Nayuta Hida?" Mattheus let the head work.
"Kizuna mentioned her name. I asked what this is. He said it were the Nayuta labs. On our way, I saw a pic of a woman who stood out. If I guess, she is Nayuta. And with the last name, you and Kizuna both are related to her? That's all."
His honesty was a good trait Chifuyu once called out. His sharp thinking was only because of his soldier training.
"Indeed. She developed the Heart Hybrid Gears. Those are the only weapons that can protect us against the Magitech Weapons. Those are." Mattheus brought his hand up, stopping her. Without she giving permission Mattheus spoke. He was thinking about Tabane. She was crazy as fuck and still, that Nayuta person stroke as worse.
"Sorry miss. But you're telling a story to me. I do think you have to wait to let my officer speak. I'm a soldier. This information is for later. But I think you want to know about me and the machines me and the others had."
Reiri wanted to punish him but she agreed with the Hunter.
"Very well. You said you piloted the Infinite Stratos. If I can make a lucky guess, that is a weapon that is like our Heart Hybrid Gears and that was developed for a similar threat to your world. Because we have no evidence that you are from our world. So I do have to take your word, which is the truth you come from another world."
Mattheus made a grin and he tilted his head, letting Reiri already know she was somewhere correct.
"You're not completely wrong. Yes, we do come from another world. And you can say that Infinite Stratos is a bit like your Heart Hybrid Gear. But we don't have a threat like you mentioned. Infinite Stratos were developed for investigation in space but they changed it later to a weapon like you saw. Developed and made by Tabane Shinonono, the creator of those machines, those units rendered conventional warfare useless. It's now meant as political grandstanding and showing off. Most of our world is if I make a guess still intact."
Kei typed in. "I do suppose there is another part. Like with our own machines, male have a lower compatibility than females with the machines. You're holding something back at that." Mattheus turned from her and back to Reiri.
His face betrayed a sarcastic snide. "Lower? Miss, besides me and Ichika, the guy you saw in the air, no other male can pilot the IS for shit. It's something unexplained and even the creator Tabane Shinonono doesn't know where this gender lock comes from and why it makes an exception for us. And she doesn't want to find out. So that's the end of it."
'Even Kerlongsj doesn't know but no way I tell them about that. That'll be really making things difficult. Besides, it's not like they can do anything about it.'
Reiri looked surprised at him. "So no other man can pilot the IS? It's just impossible." Mattheus nodded. "Low compatibility is still compatibility. No compatibility is just nothing. But if you can do the math. Machine rendering conventional warfare useless, no threat like here, gender lock. What can you make of that?"
This time Mattheus tested Reiri. Given how it worked out last time, he guessed what could happen.
"Female supremacy." Mattheus nodded on her question.
"How bad did it get?" Reiri wondered aloud causing Mattheus to shrug. "Pretty damn bad. I dare say people got fucked up in more way than one. Not to mention the amount of crap some of us had to put up with. Reiri sighed and shook her head.
"Okay. Go on. What makes your unit special besides the fact you're a male that can pilot it?" Mattheus spoke on.
"Well, there are only about 467 cores on the planet, all created by Tabane Shinonono. Crackhead is the only one who can make the blasted things." Mattheus spat on the ground.
"Showed off during the White Knight incident, one month after publishment of the machines. Sorry," Mattheus looked at her face. "I'll explain what White Knight incident is. Somehow, someone set 2341 missiles to Japan, around ten years ago from my timeline, good enough for total destruction. Tabane sent out one IS and that took care of all the missiles. After that, the whole fucking earth wanted to get their hands on the cores. Tabane shipped them over the world. She is impossible to strike and to get down. You need the original cores for making more mass produced units."
Reiri nodded.
"Is there anything else I need to know about the machines?" Mattheus scratched his cheek, reminiscing if there was something he forgot.
"I did tell you about me and Ichika, the only male pilots till date. 'But the Hackers, no fucking way. Those guys would rip me to pieces.' At this point, at our school, there are around," Mattheus began to count on his fingers, "me, Ichika, Houki, Rin, Cecilia, Charlotte, Laura, the two Sarashiki's, Natasha. Ten Pilots with a personal Unit but by my guess, that's not a lot."
Reiri pondered, leaning at her desk.
"Adjzof, did I hear it well you can remove those units?" Mattheus remembered the light in Kizuna's eyes. He nodded but put up his hand to stop her.
"Yeah but I'm afraid our units are way too different to get the same thing. Besides, I think you'll have to do the story a bit more in front of my, let's say, commanding officer." Reiri paused and nodded. "Very well, Adjzof. This will be enough. Could you please leave your machine here?" He took a little box from his pocket and put his rings in it.
He handed them to Kei.
"Don't lose them. Those machines are worth beyond anything. And my punk would kill you." Mattheus turned to Reiri.
"Punk, Adjzof?" The Hunter grinned and turned to Reiri. His grin showing the defiance he ever had when he faced Chifuyu or even Kerlongsj down. He decided he could spill the beans. They would find out even so.
"Joel Pearce. Twelve-year-old IRA boy who made the machine I pilot today. Kid's a genius but." He stopped and grinned showing some sort of apologetic face.
"He's a rude kid." He said before stretching out feeling the pops making a noise in his back. Reiri smiled and giving how she was, she scratched her cheek.
"He is important to you." Mattheus nodded.
"Yup. Kid's the only thing I got left. Got no family left. Got him and well, my girlfriend." His wink made clear she didn't have to think about making a move. If he could be fair, Reiri was one hell of a beauty. Mature, well developed and she had an aura of leadership. But like Chifuyu, she was strict. Mattheus could work with such woman but he didn't have the guts to have a laidback attitude to calm them down.
That was the case with Kerlongsj and Chifuyu's relationship. At least, what he heard from his captain after Mattheus got over for a visit. While he had heard from Kerlongsj about the fact that his leader, who had control over the biggest faction of warriors opposing the IS, and who had more power in his hands than even the biggest countries had and who was totally against the female supremacists, was in a pretty romantic relationship with Chifuyu Orimura, the example of female perfectionism.
Besides the fact that Mattheus could picture it, after all, two love souls at different sides was a cliché as old as Romeo and Juliet. Luckily it wasn't that cheesy.
Kerlongsj and Chifuyu crossed paths a few times even before Kerlongsj was a leader when he was in training. Due to trading favors and helping each other out, the two got a lot closer and understanding each other. The two were strong and had a part to play. But it didn't mean that they couldn't like each other.
Chifuyu admitted that while Kerlongsj could act like a pest and sore, stuck on her skin, he didn't suck. He just stuck around, helped her out and talked to her. He didn't want to do that just for her, he just found it right.
And Chifuyu wouldn't admit it but she liked his company. Unlike what most people did, namely answering to her insane high standards, he just raised an eyebrow, told her that what she saw is what she got and did his best. That was it. He put her in such positions that she couldn't ask for more and when she did, a curse was the response.
Kerlongsj didn't answer to her like most persons did. He just worked things out and he joked, messed around with her and even embarrassed her. Mattheus smiled, he'd love to see that. He closed his eyes and fell asleep. Seemed like this was getting even crazier than in his own world. Not that it really mattered.
He shut his brain down when he closed his eyes. As long he had his friends, brothers, and lovers with him, he could go to hell and back. Something told him that something equally huge was going to happen.
He turned on his belly, it's been a while since he slept alone.
I think it's getting more a habit to get smaller chapters done but this isn't a small chapter anymore. I hope you guys can get the Easter Egg I hid in this fic. That would be fun. You got till next chapter before I'll let you know.
Anyhow you guys are getting interested. I'm having a week free from school but it seems that I only got till Wednesday to get a lot on paper. And you guys aren't the only ones who are asking.
I'll try to put more on the computer but I learned not to make promises I don't know if I can keep them. Two more stories are requested so I'll work on those first.
I hope you guys enjoy this ride and I saw some new names on my mailbox. I got more worked out Infinite Stratos stories so if you guys would check those out, you'd do me a real favor.
Next chapter I'll explain more about the Heart Hybrid Gears and Joel will have worked out the differences in power between those two machine types more clearly. It's going to be a fun ride with what I got in my messed up head.
I will make some references to my other works. Some will be explained, others not, because I can't explain them yet.
Like always, please review this. Nothing is more motivating than getting those. Seven reviews in less than two weeks. I say that's what really decided me to work on this first. And now, I'm singing off. Got to sleep and tomorrow, I owe a guy a review for having one of the best RWBY stories out there I ever read. And I really hope he'll continue.
Saluut.
