Allright! How late am I! Probably too late since, well it's been two or more weeks since the last update but here I am! I will be replying to the other reviews after a few hours since I just finished studying for history and need some sleep, guest review:

Yup! That's one of my OC's who will be appearing in this story a couple arcs later.

Anyways, onto the story's first arc. Criticism appreciated.

[Kuoh Academy]

When you imagine students talking you don't—

"So there's the thing with Lolis. They physically don't make sense for me! I. As a pursuer of the perfection that is the human body, I can accept the existence of 'petite' and 'short' girls and have an attraction to them but girls that look, talk and sometimes have the personality of LITERAL FUCKING CHILDREN is not acceptable to my mind! I. Will. Never accept that they—"

"FOOL!"

"HEATHEN!"

—expact that do you?

I tuned out my friends' ramblings about the nonsensical existence of these so called 'loli' creatures — Oh hey its Toujou-san— and focused down at one of the higanbana seeds that I was carrying inside a relatively big sized pot and looked around to find a suitable place to place it because yes, my house may be big but finding good places to plant some flowers in the shade and sun is hard if you have more than fifteen plants.

"—AND THAT'S WHY THEIR BODIES ARE PERFECTLY– Hey! You're not listening to me are you Ise!"

That place has too much sun, that place has too little shade, that place is where Kiba tries to hide from his fangirls, that place is too much of a danger, I probably can't water it if I put it in a tree… also, the branches may break…

Hmm…

Aika reads her porn mags there, not safe for my sweet Red spider lily; I'm not insane enough to put it inside the gym; Too little shade; I can't sneak off to water them there; Souna-senpai might ban me if I put it inside the girls washroom and it's not safe in the boys' washroom—

"Oi! Stop blocking the peephole!" Eh?

I turned my head from the wall I was walking into, the pot in my hands swiftly going behind my back as I leaned down and picked up a rock from the ground and threw it above my head.

"Ow!"

"Ah!"

"I'm going to find a good place to keep my baby warm." I walked away from the peephole in the kendo clubroom, making my way through half of the school before I finally found a place to keep my pot safe and warm.

But the thing was…

"No."

*SLAM!*

I remembered too late that I was hated by the entirety of the knitting club and the tennis club. Why? Ask Saji, he can tell you in great detail.

Hint: it involved me, a cat and a surgical knife.

So, as I walked away from the student council room, slumped and depressed, I was met with another thing,

"The break is over in two minutes. What do you want Hyoudou?"

Ah. My savior.

"Just looking for somewhere to keep my higanbana pot that's perfect for it to grow in Souna-senpai."

She raised an eyebrow, "In school?"

"My house has an overpopulation of exotic plants, senpai."

"What about the school gard—"

"I'm sure that there are ghosts living inside that horrible excuse of a garden."

I responded before she could finish her sentence in the most dead voice I could speak in almost automatically, making her blink for a moment and hum in response.

"You may ask the president of the gardening club for—"

"Senpai, I am the president of the club."

"You're the president of the flower research club." She narrowed her eyes, the sun reflected off her glasses dangerously. "Are you saying that you took over another club again?"

Ah.

I forgot about that.

Looks like the gardening club, flower research club and the biology club are going to be left without a president —or members really— for a while.

The faint ringing of bells—

" Thatsthebellseeyoulatersenpai!!—!" I ran past her as fast as I humanly could and turned a corner before going into a full blown sprint that would put a cheetah to shame to make it to class.

"No planting that flower in the student council clubroom Hyoudou!"

How are her shouts reaching from the other side of the school!?

Yawning, I made my way out of my final class for the day.

It was already afternoon and I had to water my plants at five sharp and the higanbana pot was still inside my bag… huh. Am I forgetting some—

*SSSHHH— BAM!*

I spun on the ball of my foot as the whirlling sound of a rapidly approaching volly ball entered my ears, barely dodging it as it was lodged into the dirt behind me.

"Scientific pervert."

Oh right. I remember.

"Admirerer of the glassed form."

I spoke to my blonde haired… assistant with my back turned to him, a glare piercing through my eyes and staring into my soul as I met it with my own.

"You're late."

"For what?"

A battle of glares commenced, lighting shot out from both our eyes and clashed with a great display of sparks. My hand moved into my left jean pocket, as did his own. Our eyes not leaving their positions before—!!

Red clashed with black.

"ACK—!!"

*THAWK!*

A solid uppercut punched the consciousness out of me.

"AND THAT'S FOR DISOBEYING PREZ!"

I was 'punished'... Wait if he's here then who's tending to—

"*Sigh*."

I rolled back as I fell to the ground, planting my foot to the floor as soon as it reached the ground and slowly standing up straight as I heard the faint noise of footsteps.

One plant, two plant, three plant, new plant, old plant, punch almost planted in my face—

I ducked and took a step forward simontaniously, dodging Saji's punch and stepping into his chest as I wrapped my around his waist and ran.

"WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE TO WATER THE PLANTS YOU FUCKING IDIOT! WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE!?"

A trail of broken floor tiles and piles upon piles of dust were left in my wake. If I didn't get there fast enough the plants might not get their proper amount of water for today!

"OI— HE–HEY SLOW DOW— HYOUDOU I JUST CLEANED THIS PLACE UP WITH TSUB— STOP RUNNING ON THE WALLS YOU INSANE BASTARD!!!"

And as Shinohara-san says:

Life comes first.

Not his exact words but I think that's close to it.

Watering flower pots in the afternoon as the sun set was always calming.

"Ah~" The sweet sound of water accompanied by Saji's pained voice reminded me of the time Shinohara-san took me on a trip to the African continent, an experience that paid off because guess who has a farm of chocolate?

…not me because mine got shot with an arro—

"Ribbit."

My head snapped to the side.

My pupils blurred into my iris' as and shrunk into small dark green orbs. My eyes glazed over the bush where the sound of a toad came from that made me put down my watering can.

"Hey… Saji?"

"Huh…yeah…"

"Would senpai mind if I went into that bush over there?" I asked while pointing to it.

"Sure… just don't… break anything." I nodded at his words and made my way to the cherry bush where the noise of the toad came from, the sound of my boots stepping down on dirt mixing in with silence that spread through my mind as I reached the bush and lifted my left arm.

I reached in to push the bushes away to see what was underneath, my gardening gloves shielding me from the thorns on it as they parted and—

Nothing. Again.

Life returned to his eyes.

There was no toad, no small, purple and blue amphibian creature that Shinohara-san had brought for me as a gift when he went to the amazon… he wasn't here again, just like the eighty five times I had looked in this same bush.

"You ok there…?"

"...I need to water my sunflowers." I said while walking past Saji, my right hand covering the upper half of my face as I went into the changing room where I had kept my flower.

"See you tomorrow Saji."

A low voice made its way through my voice as I went in.

…

[Sona Sitri]

"I still think we gave him some kind of trauma prez." I heard Saji say as he came into the room. Greetings echoed from throughout as I nodded in his direction while examining some papers.

"Yeah. He was walking with a thousand yard stare when he left." Tsubasa added, shifting a pile of documents into a cupboard.

"It's really difficult to give someone trauma, Saji." I responded while reading the paper in my hands, "And especially to someone like Hyoudou, who, might I remind you, was somehow able to break free of you, Tsubasa and Tsubaki at the same time ?"

The paper neatly folded in my hands as I turned to stare at him.

I sighed.

"But yes, releasing a neon-coloured frog into the wild without knowing if it was poisonous was a mistake on our part. We properly apologised for it… and Hyoudou just sent us…"

The paper flew to his hands.

"...that."

Saji went through a myriad of emotions as caught the paper; first confusion, then realisation as he unfolded the paper, then amazement as the paper began to unfold, larger and larger and larger before his face turned to that of genuine horror as he realised that the paper wasn't stopping unfolding.

"Why isn't it stopping— TAICHOU WHY ISN'T IT STOPPING!!"

"Hyoudou sent us an entire biography on frog, the specific, new breed of frog that we released into the wild and why it wasn't invasive, poisonous, venomous or even a danger to insects that he didn't feed it specifically, and how to contain it properly. It has photos."

"Really cute, chubby ones, I'll add." Momo added from… the ceiling?

"That's the first letter," I pulled out a box of neatly folded papers, "he sent fifty four of them."

The entire room shuddered. Cold chills drenching everyone inside it as a memory from long ago repeated in our minds.

"The good thing is," I put the box back, Saji turning his attention to me as I began, "we can now actually look for that frog without getting interfered by the club's that Hyoudou got to hate him— yes I know that you've been helping him search for it Saji." His form retreated into himself, "It's fine, I won't punish you for it since it was us that caused it to escape in the first place."

"Sorry to interrupt, but wouldn't his frog be de—"

"Second letter, sixty fifth paragraph. I quote: 'Ryounosuke can survive for over two months without any food or water! It's because of his reserves of fat stored throughout his body— that's why he's such a big boy! He secretes a waterproof mucus covering if he doesn't get any water for two days, it actually lets you detect him because the covering enhances the colour of his body and lets light reflect better.' Unquote." I relayed in a monotone voice.

…

There was silence for a couple of moments before Saji suddenly yelled;

"Its name is actually Ryounosuke—!?"

"YOU'VE READ ALL THOSE!?"

Rias' voice overshadowed Saji's from the door, making all eyes turn to her.

"Ten of them, the eleventh had writing too small to read."

[Issei Hyoudou]

I walked past the school gates steadily and slowly. The sounds of some students who either had detention or were there to study till night faded away as I left with a yawn.

I made my way to a nearby wall, latching onto it as I pulled myself up and cracked my neck a few times, observing the path of rooftops and walls that laid in my way to water my plants.

"Hooooh…" I took a deep breath and released, hopping on the tips of my feet in preparation.

*Fyshh!!!*

I leapt onto another wall with a burst of speed and began to run on it, my feet not leaving the it until I jumped and grabbed onto a light pole and spun myself around onto another rooftop where I rolled into a full blown sprint, air trailing behind me as I reached its end and jumped onto another roof. Tiles creaked under my fast steps yet none broke as I landed on my feet and took no time to recover into another sprint, this one being the final as I saw the vases that were—

Utter horror ran through my body. Pupils dilating to small dots as they focused on the plants that were in severe need of watering.

They're going to dry up at this rate! The world around me slowed to a single moment.

I slammed my legs into the rooftop, bits of tiles flying off and flowing with the wind as I began to run faster than before and as I reached the ledge of the rooftop, I—

"HHAAAAAHHHH!!!"

—leapt… and not going to lie I didn't make it.

I grabbed onto a branch conveniently placed on a tree that was falling into.

But who says you break your legs after one jump?

"AAAHHHHHHH!!!" With a heavy scream I rotated my body around the branch, the small thing bending as I pulled it with my bodyweight and as my body reached the apex of the rotation. I let go.

My body spun around wildly as my vision disoriented. Walls, leaves, Shinohara-san just staring at me from behind the see through dome of his upper floor while he slowly sipped a cup of — I'm pretty sure— dark coffee and finally the railing of my balcony entered my field of view—

I lengthened my arms.

My body slammed into my balcony and a sharp crack rang out as I pulled myself up and took two breaths, limping my way to my washroom while taking a watering can from my desk with me before closing the door shut.

"Huh. Blood. Great timing."

No.G-64

A scythe created from the essence of one of the more… personal flowers from the Amaryllidoideae subspecies, this one was an exception to the earlier description of what my ability could do as it gained its ability not from the features of its real life counterpart, but its concept and meaning.

The ability to project an illusion of their death to those who gaze upon it and… there is another ability though I couldn't find out what it was due to the restrictions of my factor but if I had to guess it relates to one of its names. —S.H

[Kuoh Park]

The soft sound of my shoes tapping on the road as I walked to the local park to search for Ryounosuke overtook every sound that entered my ears.

Every flower and plant in my house — including the ones behind my closet— were watered in fifteen minutes and I had left my house with permission from my parents and a bag full of items.

Glowing skin doesn't do anything if you don't wanna show yourself. I bitterly thought, setting my bag down onto a park chair. I took out two leather gloves that were specifically designed for gardening and protected my hands from thorns and any poisonous plants that seeped in through my skin. They were green in colour with bright blue rims that accented it and belts wrapped around my wrist in order to make it stick tightly to my hands.

I put them on while humming silently, fastening the belts and squeezing the air once or twice with each glove before closing the bag and heading into the bushes that awaited behind me.

"Come out and I won't try to dissect you this time Ryounosuke." Try was the keyword there.

[Thirty Minutes later]

"COME BACK HERE YOU DAMN CAT!!" Wanted to find a frog but found a cat instead. It dropped from a tree I was searching under a few minutes ago, right on top of my face.

The scar that white feline left hurts a bit.

"LET ME PET YOU, FELINE!" I refused to call it a cat the first time I saw it and I won't stop calling it until I die.

I stepped down as the feline jumped up onto a nearby tree, the momentum I had accumulated suddenly coming to a full on stop as I reared my body back, extended my right arm while curling my right and—

DOOM

"U-um… are you— are you Hyoudou Issei?"

The punch stopped inches away from shaking the tree into splinters and making the feline fall from the tree as I turned to face the female voice that came from my side and my mouth formed an automatic response,

"Yo."

A girl with long black hair that swam unnaturally in the air met my sight.

Her body was slender with—

OhgodcalmthefuckdownIsseiitsjustboobsboobsboobsboobsboobsboobs

I slammed my head into the tree. The impact spread through it and made the white feline drop from one of its branches on its feet. It ran away a few moments after.

Ahem- as I was saying; Her body was slender, with large b-breasts that were the centre of attention for my eyes, her red school clothing letting my imagination grow wil—

Another slam.

Her red school clothing was… interesting. To say the least. It was a uniform that I had not encountered in my years in my relatively small town and it had a 'P' embroidered under her white undershirt which was right on her rather large, voluptuous, curvaceous mammary glands with a tie that somehow didn't look out of place with the red bow. Her green skirt almost covered her upper thighs, my almost was somewhat overexaggerated as a small gust of wind could blow and it would reveal her undergarments.

"—e! Eh?"

I blinked, red liquid seeping through my eyelids as I wiped my face with my gloves and responded,

"Excuse me—" Can I touch the mounds of perfectly squishable mounds of flesh that cover your heart? "—would you please repeat that?" Huh… everything feels weird, why's her face… spinning like that…?

"I-I asked if you would go ou—"

"Zzyaa… szur…e…" I replied in a daze as I stumbled back and fell, a neon purple light being the only thing I saw before darkness took me to my dreams.

"Ribbit."

…

As I told you before. Issei is still a pervert, just more closet of a closet pervert this time.

Exam dates were moved up from 20 to 23.Yay. And it's my Birthday today.

That's all I got, see ya lads.
