Enjoy, that's all I'm going to say for now.


Prelude:

"As Expected, I have a lot of Questions"


No surprise here.

Getting into college in Shinto Teito, I don't expect myself to be swarmed with people wanting to know me. As naturally shitty as riajuus can be, I remained a loner just like my middle and high school–what the fuck was I expecting?

All in all, college is nearly the same as high school except you can choose when you'll attend classes. I choose to attend classes in two days, having all the schedule packed even if it was going to be a headache (which it was). All morning classes, afternoon classes and evening classes attended in two days. The remaining days however? I get to enjoy my free time.

Certainly, this is what makes college better than high school. And what do you know? Today happens to be Sunday, a sacred day for a loner like me. Back in the day of my teenage years, I get to laze around in this particular day and let my older sister spoil me even though her verbal abuse could've torn my body apart. She wouldn't be able to do that anymore now that I've moved away into an apartment. It was such a blessed day and I was smiling brightly when I laze around in my apartment.

Well that was until my phone rings.

"Hello?" I replied the call, raising my eyebrows while letting out a yawn. "Kaa-san, is that you?"

"Yes, it's me Shin-chan." Why can't you stop calling me that? That name reminded me of an old comedy slice-of-life[1] anime I used to watch when I was a kid. "How are you settling up?"

It's been a few months since I departed from the family house so I get her concerns, "I'm okay, Kaa-san. Apart from not having to socialize every goddamn minute, I'm doing perfectly fine." I sighed.

"Are you, now?" Why are you doubting me? "Well, okay then. I just wanted to check on you just like always, in a-"

"-week or two–yeah, I know." I sat up and took a mug of hot chocolate over to my face, "What about Tou-san and Nee-san?" I asked.

"Oh, you know how they are–they're very worried for you as well." Can't you guys have faith in me? Even if I'm lazy, uninspiring and don't seem like I can handle much, I can still live alone you knooowww? "Especially your sister–oh! You should've seen her melt down the moment you haven't called for merely two weeks! It was very hilarious."

I don't think that's funny, Kaa-san.

I really don't.

That aside, I wonder what she's been doing with her life? Nee-san had always been someone who could get away with a lot of things and she's someone smart. And while she isn't as academically brilliant as I am, she's a social butterfly and a natural beauty. I didn't get to ask much of her current predicament so I guess this is appropriate time to ask since I'm a little bit worried for her. I don't think she has a problem with her life but just to be sure, I gotta ask.

"Speaking of, what she's been doing lately?"

"She said she was aiming for a master's degree, Shin-chan. But with the way she is, it is unlikely that will happen." Sheesh, that was a bit harsh but I understand your feeling, Kaa-san. Nee-san is not the brightest person when it comes to studying and whatnot. "How are you on your side?"

"Assignments and projects, it was pain but I dealt with it anyway." I shrugged, letting out a sigh. "And as for the upcoming exams, I think I can handle it." I said with my tone laced in confidence.

"That's good to know." She sigh in relief, "Ah, before I hang up, are you eating well?"

"Eating...well?" I gulped and then look over to the kitchen counter, seeing various disposed cups of instant ramen and boxes of konbini[2] food before laughing nervously. "A-Ahahaha. Yeah, I'm eating very well."

"Shin-chan, you know better than you lie to your mother." Gah! She saw right through me! "You've been having unhealthy food haven't you? Like those cupmen and konbini food?"

How do you know that!? Are you an Esper!?

"Yeah..." I conceded, no amount of cover ups could trick Kaa-san at this point.

"Well, you better eat something healthy or I'll go down there myself and cook you proper food." Hell hath no fury indeed, Kaa-san is very terrifying. "Understand?"

I gulped, "Y-Yeah, I understand. I'll cook curry rice for tonight."

"Good!" I can just see her face brightened up in my mind when she said it, "Be careful around there, alright? And good luck with your exams, Shin-chan."

I smiled, "I'll try my best. See you, Kaa-san."

"See you too, Shin-chan."

I hung up and let out a sigh. I stretched my whole body before standing up from the couch and went into my room. I picked an attire and wore it over, yawning in the process. It was already night and I better cook something for myself before playing some games and then sleep. Tomorrow is another full day of classes, the same goes to the day after.

After wearing appropriate clothes, I took my wallet and my phone before walking out the bedroom door, then heading towards the entrance door. I wore my shoes and turned the knob, seeing the view of buildings on the balcony. I sighed and closed the door, proceeding to lock it.

I walk down the stairs and arrived at the ground floor, taking a few steps forward before staring at the sky above, seeing the Moon at its full phase. "It's quiet, what can a loner ask for more? Heh..." After that, I walked away, heading towards the closest convenience store.


I was on my way back with plastic bags of groceries on each hands, carrying them as I walked on the pavements of the roadside. It was quiet, sans the occassional passing flashes of cars and some stores still open for business. There was barely anyone in the streets and it gives since today is Sunday, people get a day off and have some time to do something they want to.

During the morning and afternoon were where people crowded the streets, it's a good thing I don't go out much during those times. When night came, people mostly went back to their dwellings to either rest or have some quality family time...at least for those who aren't busy. I feel sorry for the corporate slaves, I don't think I'll be aiming for that occupation. It gives me shivers just thinking about it, damn.

"Curry powder, check. Chicken parts, check. Chili, check. Important spices, check. And of course the secret ingredient, check." I smiled as I check the plastic bag I was carrying. "Well, I guess that's all. Some sweets and ice cream are here too so that checks it all."

I was walking with many thoughts in mind when I saw a strange figure ahead. It halted me in my tracks, prompting me to squint to get a better view and carefully observe this strange figure. The figure clearly belongs to a female–a well-endowed one at that but what attracts my attention the most was that large blade she wielded. It was still dark out as she was standing over a broken lamp post so I couldn't confirm if it was cosplay or something else.

Though, the possibility for that is quite low considering Shinto Teito is a city known for scientific researches and highly intellectual people looking for chances which is why I attended the college here. Although cosplay is nothing uncommon, people usually do that in Akihabara...

Another possibility entered my mind, "I-I'm just overthinking things..." I gulped as a bead of sweat made its way to my cheek.

A killer running rampant in Shinto Teito? It's ridiculous since there weren't any rumors, sightings or warnings but...I have the possibility of being the first victim. That thought send shivers down my spine, I can just feel my sweat getting cold by the minute. This is why I hate going outside at night!

I nervously laugh as I try to slowly turn around. "Maybe I'll just use another route ba-"

*ZOOOOMMM*

Out of nowhere, the woman ran towards me which immediately activated my fight or flight instinct as I turn my tail and bolted away as fast as I could. I can hear her steps gradually getting closer as I ran, fear running rampant in my mind. I make many turns around to lose her but she's too goddamn persistent. However, I can confirm that her steps were getting far as I make turns.

That was until I literally took a wrong turn.

I turn into an alleyway and before I knew it, I hit a dead end.

CRAP!

CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP CRAP!

I quickly turned around and saw the woman, standing there. I gulped and my lips began to shiver.

I don't want to die...

Not here.

I don't want to die!

"P-Please, can't you just let me go?" I pleaded as I took a few steps back. "M-My organs aren't worth anything and I don't have any money! Just please, let me go!"

She slowly walk towards me and I can just feel my heart getting faster by the second. Her footsteps were getting louder and I feel like I was suffocating. My back eventually went up against the wall and the distance between us were closing in. As she got near, I hear her breathing became erratic and...I could've sworn I heard moans when I shifted my body.

Once she was standing before me, I feel all the functions in my body halted and I froze in place. Even my breathing halted, awaiting whatever fate awaits me here.

"I don't want to die...please." I pleaded one last time before I shut my eyes close.

I wasn't imagining when I heard her moaning, she was literally moaning right now. Seems like this is it, huh? I never got to have that something, that thing I always been searching for. I've been looking for it for years and now, I will never get to even know what it is.

Ah, Kaa-san. Tou-san. And Nee-san.

I'm sorry, this son of yours will leave yo-

"Mmmph-!?"

I feel my lips were caught by something soft and damp. I quickly open my eyes and said eyes widened as far as it could at what was happening right now.

Heat began to invade my cheeks and many questions appeared in my mind.

The woman was kissing me.

She was kissing me.

She was kissing...me.

I didn't get to process much when I feel her something foreign enter my mouth which I quickly concluded to be her tongue. She was moaning as she deepened the kiss. Once the gears that was stuck on my brain and body began to turn again, I used both of my hands and grabbed her shoulder.

I pushed her away, disconnecting our lips as a single trail of saliva connecting between my lips and her tongue elongated and parted. "W-What are you doing!? Why are yo-"

I was caught off guard when she once again forces her lips onto mine with overwhelming strength a woman like her shouldn't have. She grabbed my wrists against the wall and continued to kiss me or is it just French kissing me at this point?

She keeps on kissing me when somehow, five pairs wings of light similar to an angel's sprouted from her back, sending glowing feathers around and enveloping the once dark alley with this beautiful glow that I have never seen before. Her moaning became louder but that was muffled by the kiss she forced onto me.

After the light faded, our lips parted and I finally was given a chance to properly see her. I just realized that she was attractive, incredibly attractive that it feels supernatural. Her smile was the one that shocked me, it was a different smile...I don't know why. Something about it is just different, as if it was...

"Genuine..." I quietly whispered to myself.

Whilst blushing and that same smile plastered her face, she introduced herself. "Sekirei No. 13, Anjelica. My love for you is boundless, I will bring the heavens down for you if I have to, my Ashikabi."

Yeah, that was when it all began. When I first got pulled into this damn game against my will. Whilst other Ashkabi have quantities and quality Sekirei, I relied the only one thing I can proudly say I have over others...

That is my mind.

This has been sitting in my docs for years. Don't know how it holds up since my Sekirei knowledge is very limited so apologies for any mistakes. I don't know if there's No.13 Sekirei since this is an OC, so if there are, let's just say this is an AU.

I may continue this if it gets enough attention.

Thanks for reading and have a nice day.
