>Makoto Kurogane
Oh yes of course that was your name. A plain average name such as that fit the kind of person that you used to be. Of course you were no longer going to be such a boring, useless guy. You were going to live a more exciting life from now on. However before you could think about how exactly you were going to improve your life you feel the sensation of somebody lightly shaking your shoulder.
Your eyes shooting open you find yourself asleep on your desk, a trail of drool dribbling down your mouth. Looking up you see a bright faced girl with vibrant pink hair staring down at you. That's a face you know very well, it's the face of Sachi, your next door neighbor since childhood.Shaking her head she folds her arms, beaming down at you. "How long are you gonna' sleep for, Makoto. Class is about to start silly.

Sachi! You've woken my demon eye, Perso Lumen!

Thirding this

>>2829171
Now she's done it! It's time to show her what you're made of! You've spent days reading this new manga that had recently come out. It had taught you about all manner of special abiltities. Placing a hand in front of your eye you give Sachi a toothy grin. A harsh chuckle escapes your lips as you look over at at the quizzical girl. "Sachi! You've woken my demon eye, Perso Lumen!"

That should really teach her, it'll show her the true meaning of fear. Maybe if you were lucky seeing your demonic new form would cause her to fall in love with you. Not that you were interested in her or anything but gathering a harem would be one step into getting a more interesting life!

Sachi just stares at you, her lips twitching ever so slightly. You swear you could hear the entire class start to chatter at your sudden outburst. You're certain your reputation in class has plummeted. (Class reputation -1)

"H-hey... Ha ha you're joking you don't actually have a demon eye right?"

Despite absolutely nothing having happened Sachi takes a few scoots backwards from you. She was your only friend in this class, it was probably due to the fact that she always believed you when you went on about stupid stuff like this. "A-anyway, did you hear the rumors?"

do we get info on game mechanics or do we learn as we go?

>>2829194
>What is it Sachi?

>>2829204
Learn as we go. The section where we're currently in is currently the tutorial period, so to say. I'm embarrassed to say but I'm still working out the kinks in a few future mechanics. But those aren't going to be relevant for a while. Either way, I think now is a good a time as any to explain the reputation system, since that's immediately relevant.

Social groups and certain characters have certain gauges that determine how they feel about you. These gauges can affect how an NPC or a group will treat you in the future. The gauges are from -5 through five. The higher the number is more positively they'll feel towards you. The lower the more negative. You can feel free to ask me to post regular updates on how your reputations are going. Depending on what you do you can either lower or raise an individual's score.

For example Sachi's reputation is a 5, we're in pretty good with her.

The class' feelings towards us is a 0 now. They're practically neutral.

This is going to be the most important mechanic for right now. Future mechanics will be explained as we go, as not to spoil the quest.

"What is it Sachi-tan? This better be good." You smirk in an attempt to sound cool. You're still wondering why your demon eye didn't activate but.. Perhaps you'd have to consult that manga again. Leaning back in your seat you stare at Sachi. The girl keeps her perpetual grin, placing a hand on your hip.

"We have a new student transferring in! Isn't that exciting!?" She practically shouts in your ear as she bounces up and down. Plugging one of your ears you close an eye,

"New student huh?"

"Yeah" She reaches out to grab your wrist. "I know this could be an opportunity to get you some more friends!"

You feel alarmed at the sudden contact. You can't help but feel your cheeks flush red.

Hey I'm going to go take a nap before I make my next post, so this thing is on temporary hold. I'm thinking about setting up a twitter sometime to help with scheduling. I will for sure write up my next post as soon as I wake up, which should be in a few hours.

"Come on Sachi, I don't need any more friends! I have plenty already!" You retort, although that's not the exact truth. Your response seems to strike a chord with Sachi. She closes her eyes, giving you a toothy grin.

"Heh of course, since I'm your only friend that means I'm enough?"

"I wouldn't go that far." You retort, retreating your hand away roughly, straightening yourself out to look cool. You might have just said that but.. You still wanted to look good in front of the new kid. The more popular you CAN get the better.

"Hey... Makoto, even if you have plenty of friends that's fine. As long as I'm still you're best friend!"

(Gonna be a little inconsistent with posting Since a friend surprised me with a visit, but I'll try to get something out every hour.)

"Of course you're my best friend...." You pause, before giving her a sleazy smirk. "But who knows maybe the new kid will give you a run for your money."

Her face turns into one of shock, her hand covering her mouth. "A-are you sure!? W-well I'll just put in extra effort to keep my position! So look out!" She gave you a salute, leaning down close to you.

"We'll see." You say dismissively, leaning against your chair. Honestly it was a little cute seeing her flustered like that. The bell for class ran, and Sachi gives you one last smile before heading over towards her desk in the front of class.

The teacher walks up to class, a dull look on his face. "Listen up you slackers, today we have a new student attending class with us." He looks towards the door and motions for the new student to come in. "Hurry up already."

An unfamiliar girl saunters into class standing at the front. Everything about her seems practiced and graceful, as if she's some sort of royalty. She opens her mouth, an speaks dully. "Alice Crawford."

She sends the class an icey glare before eventually stopping at you, her eyes turning into daggers. What do you do?
>Say something
>Just ignore her
>Write in

>>2830157
If it's appropriate to say something, then: "Welcome to the class." Otherwise maybe just nod in recognition if her introduction and stay silent. I dunno what the glare is for but we can try to figure that out later without involving the entire class and the teacher.

(Gonna go with a slight mix of a few responses.)
You attempt to look at her with your demon eye and yet still no response. You're lucky that you didn't shout about it like some sort of dumb ass. Who knows what could have happened this time. You briefly pondered buying some sort of contact to make your "demon eye" stand out. That was cool these days wasn't it? Either way, aside from just looking back at her you decide to ignore her. You turn your head, deciding it would be best to not deal with that. If you could control it maybe you could figure out why she gave you the stink eye later.

That's when you could hear the sound of foot steps approach you. Darting your eyes upwards you see the new student, Alice Crawford, standing right beside you. At least you see her legs, from where you're sitting. You can't help but notice how slender they appear.

"Teacher, I'm sitting here." The girl bluntly tells your teacher, who just shrugs his shoulders. You can't help but notice that her voice has some foreign accent. It's pretty clear she's not from this country. Class goes on as usual. You continue to ignore her, ignore her very presence. you're not going to take her bait and start a fight. As your ignoring her, however, you feel somebody's breath brushing against your ear. Turning your eyes, you feel your body freeze. The new girl was leaning close to you, ignoring the teacher. Very softly she whispers into your ear.

"You're ignoring me this time. You really think acting like nothing happened will change what you did? That's almost more insulting than if you'd pretended to be friendly." What the hell was she talking about? You know for a fact you've never met her before in your life. "Whatever, it is no matter. What's done is done. I was a fool for giving you so many chances in the past. Let it be known, Makoto Kurogane, this time I'm going to put an end to your life."

And YOU thought you were chuuni. This girl was spouting nonsense from some kind of anime. Was she delusional or what? Still, you couldn't help but feel this nonsense was her own personal decoration of war.

Ok, so the transfer student heard of our chuuni ways and wants to erp in the middle of the class. What a breath of fresh air! Sachi never plays along. Lets have fun! Play along! NO! Outplay her! Start speaking about past lives and destined meetings.
As low as possible, try not to make an scene.

(All pretty much the same idea.)
"Heh, what mischief you are up to this time won't be able to steer me off my path this time witch." You laugh, keeping your voice barely above a whisper. "No matter what you have prepared for me this time I will meet you toe to toe. It must have been fate for the two of us to meet again,my valiant foe."

She smirks, refusing to back away. "You never change... It just so sickens me. Tell me, Kurogane, if you remember by chance how the two of us met, please tell me."

This seems reasonable, but it is imperative to say it as serious as possible, looking her right into the eyes. Try to make her break eye contact first.
If successful, brag about demon eye.

>We were bitter enemies

>>2830608
>Ah yes, Madam Crawford. It was a stormy night, fraught with perils, but in the darkest of places, while we both wrestled with our demons within, we met under the moonlight, underneath a solitary tree. I was a mere boy, unknowing of the demonic powers trapped within me, while you were someone new, someone who I could seem to relate you. It was my mistake to trust you... But do you ever find yourself missing those days, Alice? Those happy, peaceful, tranquil days we spent together, exploring the world? I constantly ponder why it had to end the way it did, but I think I've known the answer all along. We were fated to destroy one another through our own follies. But, now that we've been given this fragile, transient second chance at life, I find myself wondering. Do you think it's possible for mankind to defy their destiny?

Sorry I've been so inconsistent tonight. I'm free now so I'll be able to post more consistently the rest of the night.

You feel as if the weight of the entire world was bearing down on your shoulders. The cold glare she gave you felt like it could tear through your very flesh. Clearing your throat as you stare her into the eyes, steeling yourself. You had to prove to her that you wouldn't back down."I seem to recall a warrior companion, bold and true, who abandoned me in my darkest hour. Could that be you? If so what happened to us?Are we fated to betray one another? May we not fight our destinies?"

She looks back at you, completely stunned. It seemed as if she didn't have a come back for any of this. Smirking you grin down at her triumphantly. "And such is the power of the demon eye, my brave opponent." You mutter as if that meant anything.

Suddenly her lips twisted into a cruel grin. She grabbed a hold of your tie and pulled you closer to her face, merely inches apart. "Oh I see...So that's your game is it? You don't remember at all do you? Otherwise how would you pass the blame on me, after all of the times you stabbed me in the back and twisted the knife. You truly are a sick person, Makoto Kurogane."

For some reason you get the sense that if you weren't in a class surrounded by people she would have murdered you right on the spot. She loosens your grip on your tie. "Makoto Kurogane... I will give you one last test of character. How do you feel about this world? Are you tired of it?"

You know in your heart your answer the moment she asks her question. It wouldn't need to be asked. "I am tired of my ordinary boring life. I wish this world was more exciting."

Letting go of your tie somberly Alice stared off to the side, before retreating away from your desk to sit at her seat, not spearing a glance at you. "I see...You never do change Kurogane. And I am certain you never will." You can almost feel the contempt seething out of her voice. (Alice reputation -1)

You sit in silence for the remainder of class until the final bell rings, signalling the end of the school day. You get up, prepared to get on with your day when you feel somebody slam their hands down on your shoulders.

"Makoto what were you talking with that new girl about!?" You knew that voice, it was Sachi's. For a second you were afraid it was going to be that Alice girl again, finally come to attack you!

Biting down your lip you decide to swallow your pride and tell your friend everything that had gone on, about your personal encounter with that woman. After all she'd listen to you wouldn't she? She was supposed to be your best friend. And in situations like these it'd be best to tell her what's going on. Fighting for words you look around to spot Alice. You see her surrounded by other students asking her questions. Good. "T-the new girl Alice... That devil decided it was best to challenge me! Ha she threatened to kill me! " Despite your attempts to act brave your voice betrays your fear.

You turn to face Sachi, who only frowns at you. Slowly reaching out she grabs a hold of one of your shoulders.

"Are you scared, Makoto?"It was a simple, innocent question, free of any hostilities. Looking down at your feet you nod your head.

"I-it's not as if I can't fight her wickedness on my own but..."

"You want me to walk you home?"

"Yeah..."

She smiles and grabs you by the wrist, jerking you up to your feet. "Well it's better to leave while she's distracted right? So where do you want to go? Straight home or go to the arcade or movie theater first?"
>Go straight home
>Going somewhere sounds fun

Go to the movies but when leaving make sure to blend in with the crowd and take a zig zagging path home.

"Let's go to the theater! That foul devil won't find us there." Ha quick thinking. Once you get there you'll just dodge her left and right. You'll totally lose her in the crowd in case she followed you.

"Okay you're the boss Makoto! Oh I think they're playing a new anime movie. You're such a dork, you like that sort of stuff right?" She giggles as she skips off ahead of you.

"I am no dork! Anime is important to our culture! Only true sages can decipher the messages being taught!" Of course a simpleton like her wouldn't understand. Still the two of you take a thirty minute walk to the nearest theater to see an undisclosed anime movie.

Eventually the line moves up and you're only waiting behind one more person. A small girl who looks no older than 13.

"W-what do you mean my currency won't work here? Do you know who I am!?" She demands in very broken Japanese. It seems she's unable to pay a ticket. You and Sachi look at each other in dismay.

While on one hand, it's kinda awkward to just barge into the situation, I assume as a dork who probably watches a lot of anime Makoto would sympathize with the pain of missing out on a good show you were eager to watch.

Used to hate it whenever I accidentally missed one of my Saturday morning cartoons as a kid.

(Gonna be my last post for tonight. I'll try to get some more posts done as soon as I wake up. Due to my bad internal clock That'd be realistically around 2:00 PM Central time. However if I'm lucky I might be up as early as 12:00 Pm central time. After this thing has been going on for a while and I'm sure it's going to last (Which I'm confidant it will) I'll set up a twitter for proper scheduling.)

"... I can spare the girl a dime." You tell Sachi, resulting in the girl giving you a thumbs up.

"I knew you were a nice person Makoto! Go get her!" She almost sounded like she was telling you to go pick up some girl. In retrospect you feel she could have put that better. Puffing up your chest you walk over towards the small girl and giver her a pat on the shoulder. She looks up at you with curious eyes, her breaking her attention from the guy who ran the cash register.

"Yes may I help you good sir?" She asks softly up at you.Smiling you pull out her wallet and pull out some extra change out of it. It wasn't much but your sister had some to spare last night.

"I saw your plight young lass, and it broke my heart. Truly it did. I have decided to grace you with my kindness and pay for your ticket."

Eyes lighting up the girl's hands snatched up the money, marveling at it. Giving a small nod of her head she looked up at you, before grabbing the hems of her dress and curtsying. "Thank you for your utmost kindness sir. I appreciate your generosity. My name is Elizabeth Crawford, I have just recently come to this country. Tell me, sir what are you called by?"

This, some chunni to defend ourselves from the panic of having run into our newly acquired enemy's sister, but not so much to be antagonistic. Try to be friendly, and if things turn sour, we can just go to the arcade instead. I'd like to befriend Elizabeth in hopes of understanding more about why Alice hates us, or to help us smooth things over with her.

If it's the same movie, offer to watch together. Make small talk about how we know a transfer student sharing her last name.

>>2831649
Just remember that Alice can't kill us is we marry her little sister.

>>2831668
Unless getting close to the little sister gives her an even bigger reason to off us. Gotta raise reputation with Elizabeth ASAP so we reach the safe zone before Alice launches her attack

That name... Instantly you recognize it. The name of your enemy, the name of the girl who threatened to kill you. Maybe this could be your chance? If you get closer to this girl there's a possibility you could learn more about your enemy. How brilliant. Becoming friends with somebody close to the enemy could gain you several advantages. "Mortals refer to me as Makoto. And this is my companion, Sachi!"

You motion over towards the girl behind you who just waves at Elizabeth. "Hello." She greets, seeming as if wanting to draw as little attention to herself as much as possible.

Elizabeth between the two of you, before bowing her head. "It is very much a pleasure to meet both of you, Mister Makoto, Miss Sachi. What brings the two of you here today?"

"I was just about to ask that of you young lady." You proclaim proudly, not once letting your act drop. "We are here to bare witness to the acclaimed film 'your identity'. By chance would you be here for the same reason?"

Touching her chest the girl looks taken aback. "Oh my, that's the same film I'm going to watch. I knew it was destiny the very moment I met you Mister Makoto. Would you and your girlfriend care to sit next to me in the theater? I would very much like if the first film I watched in this company was in the presence of friends."

>>2832327
G-girlfriend?

>>2832343

Quickly wash away the idea that Sachi is your girlfriend, not blushing or anything, just negate it, as it were an axiom that she is not, a known fact of common knowledge that something like that could never happen.
More over, send Sachi to buy food and continue talking with Elizabeth.

>>2832327

But really
> I would very much he delighted to

>>2832360
"I would very much be delighted to!" You tell the girl proudly. You point back towards Sachi, not looking back at her. "But do not be mistaken. She and I are not romantic partners. She is only a friend of mine, nothing more. It can not be anything more."

"So that's what you want huh Makoto?" You hear Sachi chuckling behind you. Despite your cold denial of a potential relationship she doesn't seem to be mad. No matter how hash you've treated her in the past she's only responded with the utmost positivity. You're sure you could kill somebody in front of her and she wouldn't judge you. "That's fine though, that'd just be weird if we ever went out."

"Oh I see, I apologize for making the mistake. I always assumed that teenagers only cared about dating, with how my older sister complained about being asked out in our old country." Elizabeth Nodded her head as if she seemed to understand. The three of you quickly purchased your tickets. With thirty minutes to kill before show time you send Sachi away to purchase some snacks. Now that you're alone with Elizabeth it's time ot ask her some questions.

"Young girl, I have some questions I wish to ask of you;."

"Oh whatever could they be Mister Makoto?" She asks, looking up at you expectantly.

(Let me just say I feel bad for basically making a post an hour. I feel I could pump out posts faster. Then again maybe that's just a personal issue of mine and you guys don't mind.)
"Oh could you tell me more about your older sister?" You ask, attempting to act as if you've never met the girl before. It was best to not make yourself seem suspicious. If you did she could report right back to her sister.

Elizabeth nods and taps her chin. "Well I do not see the importance of this but, my older sister's name is, of course, Alice Crawford. The two of us moved to Japan from England three days ago. She began classes today while I don't start middle school until next week. Come to think o it, your friend was wearing the same uniform my sister was wearing this morning. Could it be you two might have met already?"

"Maybe in a past life she and I have met each other. I do not know. I feel as if destiny binds us." You speak with the flourish that is expected of you. She folds her arms, as if contemplating something.

"Now that you mention past lives, Mister Makoto, I can't help but shake the feeling you and I have met before in some time, some place before now. Of course that notion is impossible. But still it nags at me Mister Makoto." She closes her eyes in deep contemplative thought. Now that she mentions it now... She does feel slightly familiar to you. The same with her Sister, Alice. It's a small feeling, tugging at the back of your mind. Opening her mouth again, Elizabeth begins to speak. "I believe the notion silly of course, and I know it sounds childish but please do humor me, Mister Makoto. But do you truly believe in destiny, or past lives?"

You can't get of this weird feeling that maybe Elizabeth has asked you this question before. You don't know how to respond.

"Sometimes it is difficult to determine if you really believe in anything. Are humans even capable of believing? Of truly doing so? Or we just came to believe what is convenient for us to believe?
My life is very boring, unbearably boring. I need to believe in something that helps me to endure this mundane hell that I am trapped in. So it is convenient for me to believe in it. It is only natural that I will eventually come to believe it. If that happened already? I truly can't tell."

It is only natural that I will eventually come to believe it. If that happened already? I truly can't tell." You Pour your heart out to this stranger. The only person you'd ever dared to tell about how you felt about your every day life before was Sachi. You just can't bottle it up any more. Everything about your life is boring. Boring boring boring boring boring BORING! You can't help but want to spice it up.

"I see... Indeed all we can do is believe." Elizabeth doesn't seem to know what to make of your words, but she appears to be making an attempt at understanding. "Well I suppose we don't know for sure do we? But... If you'd like to believe I'd like to believe too. I think it was... Destiny the two of us met, Mister Makoto." She beams up at you, taking another step forward.

Yeah... All you can do is believe. If you believe hard enough maybe you can destroy your mundane life? Maybe everything will finally truly become exciting.

That's when you feel an intense migraine shoot through your head. You're assaulted with visions of you sitting in a dark night, cradling Elizabeth in your arms. Crimson stains her chest and her mouth, her eyes vacant and lifeless as they stare at the cloudy sky above. When you look up all you see are two girls. One you don't recognize, looking down at her feet and... Alice Crawford.She just stares at the scene, moving her mouth. She appears to be shouting but you can't make out what she's trying to say.

"Makoto?" That word, your name, calls you back to the land of the land of normalcy. You turn your head and notice Sachi, smiling at you. "Hey are you alright? I got the food! Are you two ready to see the movie?"

Regaining your senses you grip your head, giving a firm nod over at Sachi. "Yes of course I'm fine. I'm not so weak I give into illness or anything of the sort! Ha exactly what kind of man do you take me for? I'm more resilient than that!" You attempt to laugh off your uneasiness.

"We must not waste time here you two! It's about to start!" Eagerly Elizabeth reaches out to grab your hand, as if to tug you along. Due to not having the same sense of boundaries as a teenager would she grabs your hand instead of your wrist as Sachi tends to do. Together the three of you get to your seats at the back of the theater and the show begins.

As you watch the show you can't help but be plagued by the oddities that have been happening to you today. You decide to make note every time to get a weird feeling, or what not. Maybe you should ask your parents about this? Have you been out of the country before? If that's the case maybe you would have met Alice there. Either way these thoughts take your attention away from the movie.

As the three of you walk out of the theater, Elizabeth skips ahead of you, seeming to be in absolutely high spirits. "You Japanese have such exquisite taste in cinema if I say so myself! That was a fantastic movie. What did you two think of such a dramatic tale?"

Sachi forces a laugh shrugging her shoulders. "Well I don't really like anime all too much so it's alright I guess. what about you Makoto?"

You were sipping on the coke Sachi bought you before when you feel her elbow connect with your side. "Oh I thought it was alright." You were prepared to see more when you stopped in your tracks. As you were looking off to the side your eyes locked onto a certain somebody. Alice Crawford, looking around through the crowded theater, as if she was trying to hunt for someone.

Fighting back your fear you decide to act casual, as if nothing had happened. A smile on your face you look at your two companions. "How about we venture on out past here?" You suggest, pretending that you didn't just spot your enemy lurking around the corner.

"Alright, whatever you say, you're the boss Makoto!" Sachi just smiles and gives you a salute.

"Fine, I am tired how about we get some food? I have always wanted to try dining. You will pay for me will you not Mister Makoto?" Elizabeth asks, her arms folded behind her back,

"Sure the more the merrier." Surely Alice wouldn't kill you while her sister was around would she? As you three leave the theater you turn around and feel your blood turn absolute zero. You see Alice pushing against the crowd, her eyes trained on you.

You decide it's time to make tracks. The sooner you get out of here the better. Quickening your pace you begin to make your way from the theater. Both Sachi and Elizabeth seem to have trouble following behind you but you don't care. Eventually the three of you make it to a near by McDonalds. You wanted to eat somewhere nicer than this but... You were running out of options on where to hide out.

"Mister Makoto stop, allow me to catch my breath." Complains Elizabeth, placing her hands on her knees, panting.

"I apologize, I was just eager for some food." You comment as you look past the girl, trying to see if you can spot Alice.

Make a D 100 roll to see how well we did in escaping Alice.

You don't see Alice. She's nowhere to be seen. No matter how hard you strain your eyes you can't see her. However you get the sense that maybe, just maybe you didn't completely lose her. No she somehow knew you were going to be at the theater didn't she? What if she knows you're going to come here too? It could be all in your head but that's the thing, you simply don't know.

"Eh we're eating here?" You hear Sachi complain from beside you. "Well I guess I'll order a side of fries but that's all I'm going to eat. You know I shouldn't eat that much junk food."

"Suit yourself Miss Sachi, I suppose that means there's more food for me! After all you know the saying another man's table scraps are another person's dinner?" Elizabeth's analogy confuses you. Wouldn't that phrasing imply that she's some kind of homeless person? Whatever you decide not to question her strange foreign metaphors. "Let us get to eating Mister Makoto! I am quite famished."

"Yes of course!" You say halfheartedly, not quite shaking the feeling you still might be in some danger,

You decide enough is enough! Enough cowering from this new transfer student. It was already bad enough that she was consuming your thoughts. You were going to enjoy your unhealthy junk food and you were going to like it! You were the master of the demon eye after all, the absolute king! Deciding to get rid of all of your fears you storm up to the counter.

You order A big mac with a large side of fries and another coke. One could say that you should drink healthier and not have so much soda but "to hell with you!" you say to those people. Who needs them anyway?

Sachi gets an order of medium sized fries to watch her figure. Despite being such a small girl Elizabeth orders Two cheeseburgers A large side of fries, a Dr.Pepper and humbly requested that you purchase her a toy with the meal.

You three sit in the center of the room, sitting around idly as you stare at the window. Conversation has been dead for over five minutes now. Not good the silence is giving you thoughts of paranoia. What should you do to break the silence?

You decide that opposed to making fun of your only companions, you're going to get to know Elizabeth better. Taking a bite of your big mac you lean back in your seat,turning your head to face Elizabeth, who seems absorbed with her food. "Elizabeth, is this your first venture in this country?"

Looking up at you, food still half in her mouth, she shakes her head. The girl swallows her food before wiping her mouth with a napkin. "Yes of course it is. I have only left England once three years ago for a trip to America. Why are you asking?" She pauses for just a moment before smirking smugly. "Oho... Could this be what you were talking about? About past lives and destiny? Well perhaps in a past life we met here in Japan! You could have been a noble warrior and I your bride!"

"Huh Makoto what were you talking about with a middle school girl? You weren't flirting with her were you!?" Sachi of course shouts as per usual. In front of the whole store.

"Hmph, as if I would bother with somebody who has not yet matured into a woman." You simply cut her off before directing attention to Elizabeth again."So... What of your family? Such as your sister? How are they adjusting to this venture?"

"My sister? Well... Alice was behaving normally until... It came to this morning. She was behaving strangely."

"What do you mean? Please explain."

"Well she was acting more cold, and distant, as opposed to her more friendly self. I wonder, does she miss our life back home." She takes a simple sip of her soda.

"And what are you doing in this country in the first place?"

"It's our father's job. Our father is an important CEO to a rather large business, and he recently got transferred to here. By the way Mister Makoto... I have a request for you, if you'll hear it. I'd rather be called Liza, if that's alright with you?"

You think for a moment, before giving a nod of your head. "Very well you shall be the one known as Liza from now on!"

Liza beams up at you, before pausing for a moment. Her face lights up and she starts waving. "Oh dearest sister! Fancy that you decided to come here."

You Freeze. Wait did she just say... Sister?

Slowly you you turn around to face the target of your fear. The girl who had declared herself your enemy just earlier today. Alice Crawford. Standing from your seat you approach her, staring her straight into the eye. "Greetings my foe. It's lovely to see you this evening. Have you perhaps reconsidered your declaration of war?"

Alice's face contorts into a cruel smirk as she matches your gaze, equally as unfaltering. "Oh so you have decided to greet me have you? That's a much less shameful display than fleeing. Perhaps I underestimated your integrity. As for receding my declaration of war... I'm sorry but that will never happen as long as you still breathe."

"If that is the case then strike me down now."

"I. Am. Insulted good lady craw ford. Have I, in any way made you feel forced into joining me this evening?" You declare to her, feet firmly planted on the ground. If she tried anything, if she wanted to rush you, you would be ready.

"How quaint, is seems after all of this time you still keep up that talk! Then allow me to answer you as bluntly as possible. I pursue you specifically because I wish to. If I could have broken all ties with you I would have by now. I suppose for all of your sins, being a coward, a traitor, a selfish imbecile a needless murderer isn't one. Especially towards Elizabeth. Still you have run from me all evening. Have my words struck a chord with you Kurogane? Are you afraid?"

From the corner of your eye you see Elizabeth approach you. From her movement she seems afraid... More so of her own sister than anything else.

Put ourselves in between Elizabeth and Alice, using our body as a shield. It is the duty of a king to protect his subjects. "Even if I was to be shaken by such tactics, I cannot allow such emotions to overtake my sense of reason. I hope that you shall also not let your emotions do the same. If possible we can calmly discuss our matters. After all, we find ourselves at an eating establishment, surely such qualms are handled best over a meal."

Liza opens her mouth as if to say something but she shuts it again. Seeing the girl at such a loss fills you with a protective instinct. You step between Liza and Alice, holding our your arm in front of the younger girl. If you are a valiant knight then Liza is a princess in need of protection. If you are a king then she and Sachi are your subjects. "Even if I was to be shaken by such tactics, I cannot allow such emotions to overtake my sense of reason. I hope that you shall also not let your emotions do the same. If possible we can calmly discuss our matters. After all, we find ourselves at an eating establishment, surely such qualms are handled best over a meal."

She stares at you blankly completely taken aback, before laughing into her hand. She seems to genuinely find your attempts at diplomacy hilarious, or perhaps they were just laughable. "Fine, I suppose I could humor you. Very well let's talk this over a meal."

Liza lets out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness." You could hear her mutter. You order Alice a big wac and some fries and place it in front of her. She eyes the food carefully before unwrapping it. Liza sits next to you, her eyes glues to her lap. Sachi eyes the three of you, oddly silent.

"So... What did you wish to speak of first?" Alice bites, glancing over at you.

"Do you truly wish to see my demise as to attain my Persa Luymen and obtain the ukltimate power?" You ask straight up without any sign of irony.

"... Heh, I have already obtained the power of demons, I do not need your power." She answers suddenly, the exact opposite response that you expected.

"... What manner of transgressions have I committed against you?"

Her eyes narrow down to a glare. "What transgression s have you committed against me? At this point the list is countless, it feels as if you've committed a lifetime of transgressions against me. To keep it simple though the reason I wish to kill you. You have committed the most henious crime on the world, over and over, the cause of a great tragedy. Even if I explain the nature of your crime to you it wouldn't prevent it. If anything I'm certain it would only solidify that you would repeat the same action again."

You are starting to get a clear picture of what is going on, perhaps this relates to that strange vision you had before? Deciding to pursue the truth you decide to confront her, to get further understanding on all of this. "A transgression yet to be committed, but forever repeated? I see. My hazy vision from before becomes clearer. Something like a recurring reality bound by destiny? If it is as I suspect then you are right to be furious at the state of things. I may not have as vivid a recollection of it as you, but know that I do not wish to be your enemy if we mutually seek a more favorable outcome. I too am haunted by visions of your sister..." You leave that last part rather unexplained.

She narrows her eyes and bites into her big wac, taking a few moments to respond as she mulled it over. "Time and time again you've given me the same response, and time and time again you've stabbed me in the back. No matter how much things change they will always stay the same. If I tell you the nature of why exactly I must kill you I'll simply be sealing this world's fate again." A heavy sigh escapes her lips. "I have a proposition for you. If you promise me this I will leave you alone. Do you want to hear my terms?"

"Why of course, anything to change the course of history."

She takes in a deep breath, closing her eyes. For the first time since you've met her you see a sense of vulnerability. "Tonight a series of strange mysteries surrounding this town will begin. Tomorrow at around Eight at night you will be caught up in these incidents. No matter how tempting it might be, or how exciting the prospect is... After something strange and abnormal happens to you, you will forget it ever happened, ignore it and return to your normal, boring life."

You can tell I've been up all night.

Alice seems pretty obsessed with betrayal, at this point I am convinced that the only way to calm her is to accept her as our enemy and promise to "not stab her in the back" but to do it up front. If we are enemies she has no reason to expect betrayal from us.

A little exciting.

She looks at us with a glance that betrayed the slightest bit of hope. Biting her lip she decides to further explain. "I am not one to lie, this is a last desperate act. If you betray me this time, I will have no option BUT to end your life, as I can tell one's destiny is truly set in stone. I can't very well ask you to stay out of the up coming events, for they will suck you into them. So tell me, Makoto Kurogane, I wish to know where you stand. Will you brand yourself my enemy in the coming days?"

"Dearest sister, Mister Makoto is not our enemy!" Liza finally decides to speak up. "He would never do anything to hurt us."

Let's stand up proudly for this and speak with vigor and zeal. "Lady Alice, Lady Liza, Lady Sachi, I, the destined wielder of the demon eye, shall never let harm befall my subjects for I am to be king of this world! If being king means that I must take humble steps towards my goal then so be it as long as my subjects are safe. For truly, what is a king without his people, what is a kingdom ruled solely by the will of the king and not of those he represents? I may have missteped in countless lives prior, but if you'll have me, I wish to usher in an era of greatness for all.

Slamming your hands on the table you stand up proudly, staring down over at Alice. You have decided to make a resolve. "Lady Alice, Lady Liza, Lady Sachi, I, the destined wielder of the demon eye, shall never let harm befall my subjects for I am to be king of this world! If being king means that I must take humble steps towards my goal then so be it as long as my subjects are safe. For truly, what is a king without his people, what is a kingdom ruled solely by the will of the king and not of those he represents? I may have missteped in countless lives prior, but if you'll have me, I wish to usher in an era of greatness for all. Thus, Lady Alice, I shall brand myself whatever it is you wish for I would never betray your trust nor the trust of any others under my service. However, if I am to falter, please ensure that I shall never again cause anyone such pain. All I wish is to break free of this boring life and claim my throne, but the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few and thus I shall quell my ambitions till the tides of fate prove more opportune." You proclaim boldly at the shell shocked woman.

She lets out a harsh chuckle, staring down at her big wac. She takes another bite before standing up, turning away from you. "You say all of that... I must admit, something like that is a first. Still it doesn't get up my hopes. I refuse to see you as an ally however... I will put off seeing you as an enemy. You are a wild card, Makoto Kurogane. You wish to become a king and claim your throne shall you? We shall see how you respond to your first road block then. Just be known if something happens to you, I will not help you, until I'm certain you can change your ways." She takes in a deep breath before striding towards the door. "The day after tomorrow, I want you to meet with me. I will make my decision about you then. I want to talk to you after you've been exposed to this world. Elizabeth, we're going home." (Alice Reputation +1)

She steps out of the building, Elizabeth standing out of her seat. She looks up at you, smiling awkwardly at you. "Um, Mister Makoto, I hope you get along with my sister. Despite how it ended, I enjoyed my time with you. We will meet again, won't we?"
>Yes of course we will
>Likely not

>>2836709
"Surely. You are my liege after all." Also let's appoint Sachi as our chief adviser. "Lady Sachi, it is time for your position to be officially commemorated. From this day hence you are to be my chief adviser. You shall ensure that I do not act in an unwise manner, that I heed the demands of the people and that I uphold my promises."

"All of life is a stage and we are but poor pawns in it's play. But I digress Lady Liza, We shall meet again." You smile softly at her, gently patting her on the head. She beams up at you, her face turning a slight shade of red.

"Of course, I shall hold you to your word... SIR Makoto. If you dare break your promise to a proper lady such as myself you will lose all right to call yourself a gentleman." She skips off towards her sister before turning around and giving you one final wave good bye. Now it was just you and Sachi.

She stands up smiling awkwardly at you as she approached. "Wow that was so weeeird. What were you two playing some kind of game or something? I didn't understand half of it but, it looks like you two were having fun. Were you copying an anime you're into? It sounded like you both were on each other's wavelength. I'm kind of jealous to see you getting along so well... But maybe you should pretend less."

"... Sachi, my dearest friend. From this day onward I will make sure that you keep me from losing my path." You walk over towards her, placing a hand on her head. "I am so very tired, if you would be so kind would you walk me gently."

Smiling up at you she nods her head. "Uh okay I don't really know what that means but I;ll be sure to treat you as gently as possible!" And so you two headed home. As soon as you arrive you went to bed and called it a day.

1:27 AM, the second day
A girl stands above a building, her long dress billowing in the wind. A sigh escapes her lips as she jumps down from her place, landing gracefully on the ground. She dusts herself off as she approaches the gruesome sight in front of her. A pair, a man and a woman, lay in a heap of flesh in front of her. She brushes a strand of hair from her face, staring down at the corpses with eyes full of sorrow.

Their bodies were utterly brutalized, it was hard to tell where they began and where they ended. The scent rung fresh in the woman's nostrils. This wasn't her first time seeing such brutal sights. Ever since her involvement with the church she'd been exposed to many a tragic sights.

"I pray for your safe passage to the world beyond." She muttered, pulling out a cross and gently kissing it. "I apologize I came too late."

She turned her back from the corpses and began walking away solemnly, a single tear dripping from her eye. She may have been involved with this kind of work for several years now, but that didn't mean it made this any easier. She went on her way, searching for the villain who would instill such tragedy.

I can't wait for Sachi to awaken our demon eye

What is going on? Wait, didn't Alice mention she had the powers of demons? The plot thickens.

Your name is Makoto Kurogane, and your find yourself in a plain field, a nice, bright warm environment. In front of you is a figure. You can't make out their shape, gender, age anything about them. They seem to be a form shrouded in ambiguity. All you can make out is an ever present smile on their face. "That was quite an eventful day wasn't it Makoto!? It truly was far from the ordinary, huh? How do feel about the life you wished for? Your more exciting life? Did you enjoy your first day?"

You stare at the stranger, unsure how to exactly respond to them.

"I suppose it was more interesting than usual. Why do you ask? Did you have anything to do with it?" You feel your head, trying to fight off the fogginess assaulting your brain.

The figure lets out a small chuckle as they outstretch their arms. "In a way I suppose I do. Really you're the one causing all of this. I'm just giving it a little push. I only exist to make your wildest fantasies come true, Makoto. That's why... I'm truly hoping you're enjoying yourself. I suppose you can call me your guardian angel, although I guess you Japanese don't really care for such a concept. So consider me a spirit who's watching over you!"

"Oh a guardian spirit, that makes complete sense. Just the utmost." You speak sarcastically of course. You may believe in demons and angels and stuff but something of this manner was a little dumb. The figure only chuckles, turning away from you.

"I see you're having a hard time believing this. Oh well, you have plenty of time to become acquainted with me. Just keep in mind, Makoto, if you ever truly bore of this world..." They turn they head in your direction, their smile still ever present. "You can always destroy it and create a new one whenever you please."

Your eyes shoot open and you find yourself laying in bed, staring at your ceiling. It appears that whole vision was merely a dream. Still, the prospect of a king such as yourself controlling even angels was... a very tempting thought. Getting out of bed you change into your school uniform and check the time. It appears you've over slept! Class is in fifteen minutes. What do you do?

You become curious about the dream you had. you wonder... What was the whole meaning behind it? What was that figure trying to tell you. As you rummage through the kitchen to grab anything to eat on your way to school. You begin to ponder... Could you perhaps bend reality to your will? You concentrate and concentrate as hard as you can to perhaps stop time. To test if you were successful you take out a spoon from the drawer and see if it will drop. You let go and it... Unceremoniously drops to the floor with a clang. Damn it, turns out you were unable to stop time.

As you continue to think about your dream you walk out of the house to go get Sachi. If you're lucky maybe you could walk home wit her? After all she WAS your neighbor. As you exit your house you notice the girl sitting on her front porch, not wearing her school uniform. She seems down about something.

You approach her, walking up the steps. "Sachi, why are you not dressed for school? Class begins in only 10 minites!"

She looks up at you, with sour eyes. "Oh Makoto it's..." She trails off before finding her courage. "It's just.... You know that my aunt and uncle that I've been staying with? Well I was just called by the police. They said that they found their bodies earlier this morning, and are coming by to take me to um... Confirm that it's them."

>>2837188
We were supposed to meet Alice after school today right? I'm pretty sure Sachi needs us to be with her for now. Throwing out accusations in front of her won't do us much good. We need to save our rage for when we demand from Alice to know what in the actual fuck is happening.

Walking over towards her you fall to your knees and wrap your arms around the girl, pulling her in tight. You feel her warmth against you. Still you pull her closer and closer. "You can always talk to me whenever you need it Sachi. After all, you are my ally, one of my beloved subjects. You are one of my dearest friends. I swear... I will destroy whoever did this." All you feel is rage, rage for whoever hurt Sachi like this.

You hear a sniffle and feel her wrap an arm around you. "Don't say anything like that.... I know there's nothing you can do but, the sentiment is enough. Thank you Makoto."

"I shall join you in your journey to the police station." You offer to your good friend.

"Thank you... Makoto. You're a good person." As you two are embracing you hear the sound of frantic footsteps make their way to the front of Sachi's home. It is accompanied by ragged breathing.

"Hey you're Mako right? Kurogane's brother?" It sound's like a girl's voice.

You let go of Sachi and turn around to face the newcomer with a scowl on your face. "Yes that is what you mortals have decided to call me! I know my brother gets into all manner of trouble but I don't have time to deal with his shenanigans today. I have more important matters to attend to."

The stranger stared at you, blinking on occasion. She wore the girl's uniform of your school, but you don't remember seeing her out of any of the faces of your year. Her face softens as she looks over both you and Sachi. "Ah sorry to interrupt but... Your brother sent you a ton of calls earlier today. He wanted to make sure you went to school on time, so he called me and sent me over. He helped me a lot when he was my upperclassmen so I decided the least I could do was check on his little brother." She gives you a wink. " My name is Maki Makinami. Trust me I know it's a dumb name. If what your brother told me about you is right I'm your upperclassmen." Running a hand through her hair she seems to look past you and over at Sachi. "Hey if something's the matter can I help?"

(Yeah I think I need to call it a night. I'll return when I wake up.)
"Feel free to try your hand but unfortunately I doubt you can ameliorate this tragedy." You look away from the girl who introduced herself as Maki. Quite frankly she irritated you slightly. You suppose it wasn't her fault, she couldn't have known, but you were still reeling from the emotions of having learned about Sachi's Aunt and Uncle's deaths. You didn't really talk to them personally however you understand Sachi's pain.

"A tragedy? I don't mean to pry but, what happened?" The girl asks innocently, she's concerned at least. You guess that's all that matters.

"... My aunt and uncle... Their bodies were discovered earlier this morning." Sachi mutters, her voice darker than you'd ever heard it before. Something about it makes you feel a slight pang of guilt. You were out late with Sachi that night. Perhaps if you hadn't been keeping her she could have spent a few final moments with her aunt and uncle.

Your upperclassmen, Maki, bites her lip as she looks down at the floor. "Oh I see so those bodies... I'm sorry I didn't mean to pry or anything. Look I understand the situation, I'm sorry for barging right in uninvited. If it means anything, I'll make it up to you sometime later." There's an underlying theme of guilt in her voice. "You're right, there's not much I can really do, besides say I'm sorry."

"Oh you don't need to apologize. It's not like... You were the one who did this." Sachi says meekly, reaching out to grab onto your sleeve.

"I guess you are right. Well you have my blessings. I hope they are resting peacefully in heaven. I'm sorry for interrupting you two." She gives a quick bow of her head before walking off. Soon after her departure a police car arrives in front of the household. Stepping in front of you Sachi turns to give you another glance, tears still stinging her eyes.

"Well, that's our ride. Do you still want to come to the station with me? You don't have to if you really don't want to."

You approach Sachi and place a hand on her trembling shoulder. "I'm going to come with you Lady Sachi, my friend. Nothing is going to stop me, not even the devil himself. I'd laugh at such a demon if they dare stop me. You and I shall face this trial together, and only together we shall prevail."

"You say some weird things Makoto." You hear a soft chuckle escape her lips as she wipes away the tears from her eyes. "Thank you... Thank you for being by my side, and not coming to school today. After all, I guess it's good for you too, you don't have to see that scary Alice girl at all."

You two get in the cop car and drive off. You sit in uncomfortable silence as you drive along to the police station. It's only a ten minute ride, however it feels like an eternity. A weight is lifted upon you as soon as the officer stops the car. He walks out and opens it for the two of you. As you two are led inside the building one of the officers stops you.

"I'm sorry I'll have to ask you to wait in the lobby."

"This is absurd! I wish to join my underling!"

"No Makoto it's okay, the fact that you're here waiting for me is enough." She departs with the officers leaving you alone. You sit down on a chair, looking through some cheap magazine as you wait. It took more than an hour for Sachi to return, face pale. As you get up to approach her she walks over towards you and leans against your shoulder. "I'm tired... Makoto can I...Stay at your house for a little while?"

She is leaning on us both literally and figuratively. Might as well try and comfort her with a hug. After we set up a living space for her at our house is it possible to drop by the school to talk to Maki? We don't know where she lives but we know she's an upperclassman. We'd be able to ask her why she spoke weirdly about the bodies. Also Alice wants to talk to us after school.

But maybe Sachi needs us to be with her? Can't decide.

>>2838646

You reach out and give the girl another hug, closing your eyes. She is your most important friend after all. She's been with you through thick and thin. "Of course I shall let you stay with me, I am not one to abandon a friend such as you. But first should you not contact your family to let them know you are doing alright?"

"Y-yeah... Of course." Her voice sounds silted, almost forced even. "i'll do it when we get to your place."

Eventually the two of you were dropped off at your place. You let Sachi into your room while she calls her family, while you wait in the kitchen. Getting something to eat for yourself you look down at your phone. It's 12:00 on the dot. There's still time in the school day. Now that you thought about it you could get into contact with Maki or Alice there.

You decide that those pitiful mortals that attend your school are worth nothing now. You wait until Sachi enters the kitchen, leaning against the wall. She smiles weakly over at you before approaching. "Thank you for everything, are you sure you don't want to go back to school?"

"It matters not, I could miss a day in class! You are far more important, you are my most beloved lieutenant. Both you and Lady liza are under my care. I would throw down my life for you."

Sachi smiles up at you, nodding. "Yeah you're right. Besides the further away you are from Alice the better. I didn't want to say anything last night but you two were really scaring me with that weird conversation. I could tell Elizabeth was getting scared too. I mean it's probably safe for you to talk to Elizabeth but... I'd say keep away from her sister."

Sachi hugged herself, looking out the kitchen window. You've vowed to spend the day with her, and that's that. it looks like destiny didn't have anything weird for you in store. Yet still, you couldn't get the sneaking feeling that you and Sachi have had this conversation before. Again it's that strange feeling of deja'vu, that crippling nagging sensation.

You are assaulted by another headache, like the one from yesterday. And again, another vision. You are in an alley way, Alice standing in front of you. A large, otherworldly blade is in her hands, as she takes a step towards you. You are sitting on your ass, staring up at her. Sighing gently she smiles down at you, offering you a hand. "Good, I'm glad I made it in time. A minute late and you could have ended up as one of those victims. I'm glad I could save your life... Kurogane." In that moment, in that time you knew you could-

"Hey Makoto?" You're snapped back into reality by Sachi, who looks rather concerned about you. "Hey are you okay? You're spacing out again." She knocks on your head. "If you'[re really tired we could do something together? I'm not into video games but.. We can play one of those?"

This, both watching a show she likes and making chuuni comments, as long as she finds them more entertaining than annoying.

"Let us watch whatever you want to! I'm sure to enjoy it if it is truly what you wish to see, my dear lady." You decide to shrug off your earlier vision.

"Oh what I want to watch. Um... Alright I don't know if you'll like it or not but, sure!" She laughed uneasily as you two made it to the living room. Knowing your family's work schedule you'd be by yourselves until at least ten tonight. so you had plenty of time to spend with Sachi. Turning on the T.V she turned on a random nature documentary.

"Ah yes, a tale of predators stalking their prey. I know the feeling. To this day I feel like I'm being hunted, as that prey, trying to out maneuver my vicious foe who wants to dig into my flesh. Tis a sad fate, it is."

"Ha ha, you're always so weird Makoto, when did you get this way?"

"It is my nature, I have always been like this."

"Heh, if you say so. I just remember you being more normal as a kid."

The two of you continue to watch TV for hours on end. However Sachi always changes the channel once in a while. The choices in shows very from all sorts of genres. From game shows, to dramas,m to reality TV, to even TV marketing shows. None of it had any rhyme or reason.Eventually Sachi got up and headed to the kitchen. She called out from the other side of the room. " Hey it looks like you're all out of tea, could you please go out to the store and get some for me?"

>I am fine, dear lady, I do not wish for more tea.

>I do not require more tea, I am quite content. I could request my parents pick some up on their way home, if you so wish, but it is getting quite dark and I do not wish to leave you by yourself. Who else will protect you, after all?

Alert! Alert! Do not take your eyes off Sachi. This is depressing levels right here.
