Chapter 6: The Homecoming
Sainan
It has been a month since the incident of Rito's disappearance. It's insane for a peaceful city like this to be having certain types of incidents. It's true that the city can be dangerous but when it comes to those who are important to one another it makes the world not so peaceful anymore.
On the brightest day lays our attention to a female with a longer redhead hair dressed in black. She was on the search for the missing victim along with another female with longer golden blonde hair. They both went separately to continue the search. For the Redhead Mea girl she was looking deeper into the city until a weird stench had caught her attention. It was a strange scent to her. It was a smell she had recognize before the only thing that's different was how the smell is a little unusual.
"It can't be!" She had thought for a bit of doubting the stench she had recognize. From what it was it might be the person she is looking for.
Mea immediately rush to the scent. While she was following the scent her sister Yami encountered Mikan and the Deviluke sisters. The four of them were out buying some food for dinner; Yami looked closely and notice that Mikan was starting to get exhausted from the search. She wasn't the only one though, for Lala had been pulling a few all nighters to look through the search while creating new ways to help the group look for their friend.
Of all the three sisters though it was most likely to be Momo. She have deep feelings for Rito when she first encounter him as her older sister's fiance candidates. At first she thought to make the best for Rito to have a harem of his own and to be the next in line of the throne. That way he can have concubines and including herself to be one of his. However, with a talk from her mother she fully understood the true meaning of happiness and love. But it soon started to disperse when her true love was gone.
Yami took a closer look at Mikan to see that she had been holding it up for her own sake. She quickly embraced her true friend with a hug and started to hold in the tears in her eyes. "It's alright, Mikan…" she said with a upsetting voice, "We will find Yuuki Rito no matter what." She let go of Mikan and looked straight at her with a small smile. She then continues the conversation, "that aside, he wouldn't want you to give up since you're practically smarter than him. So straighten up." Mikan started to tear up a little but as she heard what Yami said about the truth what Rito would think she wiped her tears and smiled at Yami. "Right! You're absolutely right yami-san!" from hearing this the group started to be relieved from Mikans despair.
In the neighborhood
The group started to head home with Golden darkness along. The five of them were starting to cheer up brighter after seeing Mikan being relieved. The five of them started to talk about other ways or other places where Rito might have gone; but there was no point in thinking of that for now. The five of them are hyped about what they plan on doing for the night before they continue their search for Rito.
"Man if Rito were to be here I'm pretty sure that he would fall on us." Nana bragged. "Oh is that so?" Momo questioned her first born twin with a smug smile, "I'm pretty sure you enjoy that Nana." Nana started to blush after hearing that and started to get mad at Momo. "C'mon you two! No fighting" Lala intervene. Nana look back down the road with a bashful face with anger. "I'm just saying, if that beast return I bet the first thing he would do is fall on us!" Nana ranted and then yami gave an honest look at the four of them, "she has a point. His perverted habits would probably ruin the reunion." The golden hair said while Mikan laughed about the truth.
"Is that so!?" A stranger said behind the group who was standing about four meters away from them.
The group stopped after hearing a voice that had questioned them from behind. Their hearts started to race when they heard a voice that sounded so familiar to them. It was a voice they hadn't heard for a long time. The man then continue to speak up, "And here I am trying to be sure that the reunion wasn't gonna be as bad as you think!"
The group slowly turned around to look at who was the mysterious stranger. Only it was the three sisters and Golden darkness that slowly turn around to see who it was. They look at the bright sunset and then two figures that were revealed. They couldn't really say anything at the moment; it was though they found something very outstanding to them. Mikan then turned around and water was coming out of her eyes like waterfall. She saw a complete image of the person she has been looking for through the past month.
The two that were standing was their very important person Yuuki Rito and the one who had encounter him was Mea. "Yo! It's been a while hadn't it?" He question it with a bright smile on his face. The group was in complete shock to see that Rito had changes with his hair only. The eyes Rito transformed them with his original eye color. He was a black sweater and black jeans which gave them a surprise of his new type of wardrobe. They started to tear up and still stood there in the middle of the street.
"Hey! Are we just gonna stand here all day, or should just follow Nana's lead of falling on you guys-"
"RITO!" all four shouted.
The group have embraced Rito besides, Yami and Mea, and hugged him as tight as possible. "And you said I would fall on you guys" he chuckled at the group who were crying out tears of joy. Mikan started to shout at Rito for being gone for a month then started to him names like stupid aniki, idiot, jerk, etc. The group started to let go of Rito to let him have a bit of personal space. Suddenly, Yami was starting to get walk closer towards Rito with her head down. She was trembling with an upset vibe surrounding her. "Yami-" Rito said until Yami looked up at him and gave him a hard slap at the face. Oh so she's gonna kill me is what Rito thought at first until he felt a warmth wrapping around him. "Sniff...sniff…" Golden darkness started to hold on tight on Ritos body and cried out for him.
"DON'T EVER WANDER OFF LIKE THAT YOU JERK! YOU'RE MY TARGET AFTERALL! YOU CAN'T JUST GO OFF LIKE WITHOUT MY CONSULTANT! MAKING EVERYBODY UPSET AND FORCE THEM TO SEARCH FOR YOU! YOU USELESS! JERK! DUMBASS! PERVERT! IDIOT!"
It was the first time Yami had ever been upset for her target even some of them knew her true feelings for Rito. Mea was actually very happy to see her older sister to be upset over her love life. Oh yami-neechan she had thought how you've managed to show your feelings for Rito-senpai really have changed you!
Yami continue to be in tears flowing down to her face. She then felt a tight grip wrapping around her. Everybody was in quite a shock when they see this. They thought he is screwed for doing something like that. "I'm sorry." He apologised to the golden hair girl. "I made everyone else very worried especially you Yami. I didn't mean to be gone without saying a word to each of you. So I hope you can forgive this dumbass pervert for leaving you and everyone else's side." As he apologised to one of the greatest assassins of the galaxy the group was in for a surprise when they heard what Rito said to everyone in the area. Mea was very impressed about what Rito had become.
As the night was fallen everyone celebrated the return of Yuuki Rito. They never asked where have Rito have been but it did not matter to them because Rito had finally come home safe and sound. Even if he had change his appearance they will always know for sure that Rito was the same person from before… almost the same as before.
Two days later
Sainan High School
While walking towards the entrance some of the students notice something different. It was not the principal or any bizarre moment this early morning. It was the student who stepped foot on the school. Some of them murmured on who the person might be and why is he walking alongside the three Devilukean sisters. His appearance appeared to be a bit shady towards the school grounds. He came in with the same school uniform except he came in with a black sleeves under his white button shirt and decided to wear black pants. No one know who he is as well.
Right when he was gonna enter the building he was stopped by the student council Yui Kotegawa. "You!" She yelled the person who stopped, "Student should follow the school dress code! Having to wear black pants and sleeve shirt is unacceptable!" Rhe person turned around and looked straight into her eyes. Kotegawa was kinda scared at first but then it all change with a greeting, "Kotegawa! Hey it's been a while!" Kotegawa was very confused when she heard this from the mysterious student. "Man as always you really like to follow the rules! I think you're awesome for doing the things you like the most, right?" He had said with a bright smile on his face. She was a bit flustered by the compliment and then got back to reality check on the person. "Have I seen you somewhere before?" She had questioned confusingly. The student then speak up for an answer. "It's me! Yuuki Rito remember?" The moment he answered that question Kotegawa heart dropped to see that the person who's been missing is right up front of her. "Y-y-y-yuuki-kun!" She yelled until Rito looked at his watch to see that it's almost time for class. Rito grabbed kotegawas hand as the both of them started to run.
The twins looked at how forceful Rito was being to kotegawa. "Good grief," Nana said, "that beast have been forceful lately, and it's starting to piss me off." "Oh my! Are you feeling jealous Nana? And also upset that Rito-san is not giving you attention?" Nana started to rant after hearing that from Momo.
When class was about to begin the student notice that there was a strange student on Ritos seat. Kotegawa was given a deadpan look on her own face. "Are you okay yue?" question from Sairenji, "he's back but different, why?" Kotegawa murmured. Risa got closer to the two of them so that she can get some details from the mystery student. "He~y Yue, who's the hotty? And why is he sitting Yuuki-chi seat?" She questioned with a smirk face. Right when Kotegawa was about to answer Tearju Lunatique walts in the classroom. "Good Morning class! Today I'm gonna be your substitute due to your teachers absence!" The boys were psyched to hear the news from her. Saruyama then started to try and flirt with her and then was interrupted by the girls. As Lunatique got a bit flustered she then notice a student sitting on a students seat which was once assigned for Yuuki Rito.
"Excuse me!" She said when she got the student in black attention including the other students. "Are You by any chance new?" She questioned him. Lala was about to reveal who he was with excitement coming out of until the student in black interrupted. "I would like to re-introduce myself if I may?" He reply the question with another. He got up to write on the board which shows his true identity. He then gave a big smile towards the class. "My name is Yuuki Rito! I have attended this school for a long time now and was currently absent for a month. And now I will look forward to continue to get along with all of you!" he said proudly.
The whole class was in shock to see that the Rito they knew was now different. Sairenji and her friends along with Tearju were all in shocked to see the revealing of their old friend and student.
"EEEEEEEHHHH!?"
Outside of The school building
Across from the outside on top of the school building to the classroom Rito was attending there was a girl in a yukata outfit looking from across. She gave out a grin to see the face of the person who had disappeared for a month.
Meanwhile Mea was sitting on the bench humming with joy for an exciting day. She then look up at the figure that was on top of the school building which got her even more excited because that figure was her master. She gave her master a big hug while swinging around.
"Nemechan! Rito-Senpai has return! I am so happy!" Nemesis, or nemechan, teleported herself to be free from the torture hug from Mea. "You know I don't really like to give hugs unless my pets are fully trained." Mea gave Nemesis a pouted face after hearing her face. "Nemechan you're no fun" she said making Nemesis chuckled after hearing her say that. Nemesis look back at the classroom with curiosity of the new appearance of her pet. It was then that she maybe have a hunch about why is the new Rito so different and how it made her very suspicious. "Mea," called out her name, "Does Yuuki Rito seem different?" Mea raise her eyebrows and looked at the same direction her master stare. "His appearance have change," when she said the word change she brought a smirk, "maybe he even developed his God-like ability while he was out. I can just imagine how his licky-lick also been improve!" Nemesis didn't pay attention on the rest of her answer; she only focus on Rito.
Only his appearance huh? She thought. Looks like I might have to observe my servant for a while.
Meanwhile Rito was walking down the outside hallway to keep away the audience. Rito sighed with relief that everything was finally nice and quiet. He stopped for a bit from his reflection on the window; he look closely at the reflected mirror to see how much he had change from his pitch black hair to his now-normal ruby eyes. He look down at his hand to see how it was once normal. He then slowly transformed his hands into a sharp blade. Both hands were transformed from human hands to sharpen blades.
"Hey you!" Said out loud to Rito, he accidently cut through the outdoor hallway then quickly transformed his hands to normal. He immediately turned around to look at who it was while some of the part of the hallway collapsed. The group of people that was in front of him and Rito had an awkward atmosphere when part of the building collapse. "That was like that before I even got here." he said with an awkward smile and then was rudely interrupted by the girl with a spiral hair. "I don't know why a shady person like you should be here, but strangers like you are no match for the Queen of Fights!" She said with pride of her own. Rito give a deadpan face and decided to walk away from the three girls. While he was walking away it made the swirl hair girl a mad because he refuse to even listen to her. "Don't just walk off from me dammit!" She yelled at him but unfortunately he still wouldn't cooperate with her. He was gonna head inside until the girl with swirl hair friend with a kendo stick charged towards him. Rito then immediately with to kill intent mode by defense. He took a step back to grabbed her wrist putting her arm at the back and pushed her against the wall. The three were in shock to see someone like him stopped the girl with the Kendo stick until the boy realize what he had done. "Oh my god! I'm sorry Kujou-senpai! I did it by reflex my bad!" He said apologetically to his senpai. She then looked at him closely when he release her thinking she might have seen this person before. It then struck her with a heartbeat finally know who the person was, "Yuuki… Rito?" She said. He gave her an awkward smile, "y-Yo!" The other two were at shocked to see and hear the revealing truth of him.
The three started to get a closer look at his new appearance which to them was a shady appearance. Rin, the girl with the kendo stick, touched his hair and face to take an observation. She was bashful to see how he looked more handsome than he was before, but she started to tear up after seeing that he was still alive and safe. She embraced her underclassmen with a tightest hug for him. The two of her friends, Tenjouin Saki and Ayako Fujisaki, left their rebellion phase replace by happiness to see their friend being relieved. Rito smiled a little; he returned the favor by giving his senpai a hug as tight as hers.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know you would be upset for me?" He said to keep her cool. "Idiot," she replied his question, "Of course I worried about you… sniff… I...you…" tenjouin looked closely at their reunion thinking there's gotta be more for this. What does it need? What can they do? What will make things even more better? Those were the questions for this event.
Rito release his hug to bow his head, for he made all of his friends very upset. "Senpai!" He yelled out. "W-what is it?" She questioned with a blushed face as she see him being serious and bow. "I want to make up my mistake for leaving by accident! So I am willing to take responsibilities for my actions! I will do anything for those who I made upsetting!" He stated. All on his mind was that he made everybody worried, so he suggested to take responsibilities for making them upset. It would be equally fair to him after all.
A light bulb hit Tenjouins head. Kujou was gonna reject his offer until tenjouin raise up the offer. "Then Yuuki Rito! You have to go on a date with Rin!" She yelled out which made Rin blushed. She wanted to refuse the answer until Rito immediately answer the request.
Rito turned towards Rin with a bright smile. "Let's get along! Senpai!" he said.
As the two separate from each other a devilukean tail snuck out of the bushes after hearing a good news. With hopping joy she put up a grin and said, "Looks like it's time to commenced the Harem plan afterall!"
