Nothingness.
The first thing I saw was nothingness. Every direction I looked was the same as I wonder why am I here.
Wait. . .
Who am I?
Fight. . .
Huh?
Fight. . .
Fight? For what? Why would I fight?
Fate. . .
Fate?
Will you fight fate itself or will you be controlled by fate?
I. . .I don't know. . .
Then, accept it. Unleash your power.
I can't do that either.
!
Who are you?
Just accept it.
Who. Are. You!?
Accept it!
I said! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!?
UNLEASH YOUR POWER!
WILD!
July.
The Yōkai Academy was visited by unusual weather.
This academy actually has no 'seasons', the academy is isolated from the human world by a giant barrier, and the inside temperature is kept pretty much the same all year. . .
"So why am I here?" I said as I'm the Headmaster's office, sitting on a couch,
"Mikogami-sama, would like to speak with you about something?" Said Ruby as she was standing beside by for a while now.
After I joined the Newspaper club, nothing yet has happened other than Haiji-senpai asking for a rematch and some duty at the club.
The door opened as I saw the Headmaster coming in.
"Did I make you wait long?" I shook my head as he sat on the opposite couch.
"Now then, I would like you to do something for me." He said.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"I want you to go to some place far away from here." He said.
"And that 'some place' is?" I asked.
"At the Snow Village." I rose an eyebrow at that.
"Snow Village?" I repeated the word.
"Yes, the Snow Village. The homeland of the Yuki-Onna." He explained.
"Shirayuki's home?" He nodded as I asked my next question.
"What is it that I'm going to do at Shirayuki's home?" He then hand me a couple of photos and placed its down on the table.
I picked up both the photos and looked at it. The first photo was a man that looked around twenty to twenty five and with a swept back hair handsome face. He have white skin and red eyes. He wore a tuxedo and a smoking cigarette in his mouth.
The second picture was a beautiful female that look around nineteenth. She has light blonde hair, tanned skin and red eyes. She have a long hair, held back by a tiara and is wavy with bangs framing her forehead. She dresses in a flowing white dress with snow white gloves and white boots.
"These two are Fujisaki Miyabi and Shuzen Kahlua. These two are from the organization called Fairy Tale." He explained.
"What exactly is Fairy tale?" I asked.
"Fairy tale is a force of the world and a dangerous organization. They are the opposite of this school, not aiming for a peaceful coexistence with humans." He said as I looked at the two photos.
Strange, I know that I familiar with the story but I never knew that another organization appeared. Did my present here change something?
"Your mission is to go to the Snow Village and meet with the Snow Priestess." I raise an eyebrow.
"Snow Priestess? Like a Miko?" He nodded.
I thought for a moment before I nodded in agreement.
"Alright. I accept this task." Beside, since it's been a few month now and I still haven't check the outside world yet. I still haven't know how I can returned to my world yet.
"Oh, before I forgot. The other has already been gone there already." He reminded as I looked at him in confused.
"By 'other' you mean. . ." I trailed.
"The members of your club, Tsukune and the other." He said as I blinked.
"Wait. Why would they be at the Snow Village?" I asked.
"They must haven't you told you. Shirayuki-san invited them to her home few hours earlier." He explained. Huh? No wonder I haven't saw any of them at the Newspaper Club.
"So, when will I be going?" I asked him.
"An hour later, the school bus will come and get you." I nodded at before he dismissed me.
"What happened to you, Gin-senpai?" I looked at the bedridden Gin-senpai with a blank looked.
"Ahahaha. . .You see, the girls were did this to me." He said. It didn't took me long to get the hint of what going on.
"I see. Must be hard, huh?" I said.
"No no no, It's great here. The nurse take care of me." He gave me a thumb up before a nurse come in but I stepped back a little as the nurse that came in was not what I expected.
The nurse rather than a female it's was a large muscular man with a stubbly, cleft chin, large lips, black bushy hair and has a well defined jawline.
I looked at the muscular man that I assumed to be a nurse with a blank stare before I looked at Gin-senpai.
"So that's your nurse huh?" Judging by the terror looked on him, I take that as a no.
"Well, take your time, you two." I said as I opened the door.
"Wait! Get me out of here!" I looked back at him.
"You said that it's great here. So enjoy yourself." I saluted before closed the door.
"Rest in peace, Gin-senpai." I clapped my hand and prayed.
"Come back! Hey hey hey hand off! Get away from me! Somebody. . .HELP ME!" I ignored everything behind as I walked away from the infirmary like nothing happened.
By the time I got to the Snow Village, it's already morning. The blizzard at night was strong but due to my body is somewhere of an Undead, the cold didn't affected me that much.
I looked at a piece of paper that the bus driver gave me before I started to walked like in the small map.
It's took me nearly thirty minute before I entered a barrier and the blizzard was started to decreasing. I saw a village in front of me which I guess was the Snow Village.
It's was a one of the most astonishing scene I ever see.
I walked down the snow before I entered the village. I looked at the map again. "Let's see. . .it's got to be somewhere around here."
"Found it." I found the address of the house that will give a stay in tonight before I knocked the door.
I waited for a few second before somebody opened the door as I looked at the person. It's was a woman and quite beautiful one at that. She is a youthful woman with purple silver hair which is tied up, blue-purple eyes, and a lollipop in her mouth. She wears a white kimono with a purple obi sash, and tabi socks with black zōri sandals.
"Ah, you must be the one that the Headmaster told me about." She said politely before she gestured me to come inside.
"I'm Shirayuki Tsurara. Please to meet you." She introduced herself before gave a light bow as I simply did the same in return.
"Ryūzaki Reigō." I said before I noticed something. "By any change, are you related to Shirayuki Mizore?"
"Ah, yes. I'm her mother. How do you know that, may I ask?" She asked but I could swore that she twitched a little but it could be my imagination.
"I'm in the Newspaper club." I said.
"Ah, I see. But why have I haven't heard to you before?" She asked. She brought some tea as I nodded in gratitude.
"Oh that's because I'm a new member." I said and took a sipped of the tea.
"Speaking of them, where are they? I know that they came here not a few hours ago." I looked around, not seeing any of them.
"Yes, about that. They're planning to rescue my daughter." I looked at her in confuse.
"Let me explain. . ." After that, she explained about the event not long ago.
"I see. So you're telling me that they're going to crush the wedding ceremony?" She nodded at my question.
"So where are they now?" I asked.
"They are in the Priestess Shrine already. Ready to executed the plan." She answered the first part but the second part, she giggled darkly in excitement.
I don't know whether it is a good thing or bad thing. I shrugged.
"I better go there then."
By the time I get there, the Priestess Shrine was already in commotion.
I didn't see any guard at the entrance as I enter the shrine.
Inside the shrine was a like a huge maze as I avoided any guard that came across.
I ran down through the hall upstairs before I notice the door at the left was frozen.
I stopped and studied the door before I materialized the Chalice Rouzer. I swiped the Change card. "Henshin."
CHANGE
Black static cover my whole body before I turned into Chalice. I summoned the Chalice Arrow with a flick of my hand.
I stand back from the frozen door before I fired an arrow at it. The arrow destroyed the door as I walk into the room.
When I was in the room, I saw a depressing Mizore as she was in the corner of the room with a position that a broken person do.
I walk toward her as I heard her muttered quietly.
"G. . .wa. . .y."
"Hmm?" I couldn't understand what she said before she shouted all of the sudden.
"GO AWAY!" She released a near sub-zero temperature as the room froze.
I said nothing as I dare to walked toward her despite the cold. She releasing more and more of her power as the cold was started to froze my body.
The assault stopped when I stood in front of her. I could heard her moaning in pain.
"I already dirty by that man. Please don't come, Tsukune." I heard her mutter clearly while sobbing as I subconsciously tightened my right hand.
"Oi. Get up." I said as she notice my voice as she looked up.
"You're. . ." She have a realize looked as I kneel down at her level before I did something not I usually don't do and out of her expect.
*SLAPPED*
She have a shock looked as she slowly brought her hand to touch her cheek. She looked at me with shock and confuse.
"What are you . . ." I interrupted her.
"Just because something bad happened to you doesn't mean that you could get depressed like that. You should be thankful that there is some people looking for you." I said as I heard multiple footstep.
I heard Tsukune voice as I turned my back at Mizore, leaving her without hearing her. I ran out of the door as behind me Tsukune, Kurumu and Yukari was on the stair as I escaped before they come.
I ran down at the stair before I came upon a scene. One man was up on a crater floor as I started to recognize the man. He's Fujisaki Miyabi. One of the two person that is a member of the Fairy Tale.
He were dusting his suit before he notice me.
"Oh and what do we have here?" He looked at me with intrigue looked.
"A member of Fairy Tale. Man. What a luck. I didn't think you should be here sooner." He narrowed his eyes but disappeared quickly.
"Ho? If you know who I am then, may I asked who you are?" He asked.
"The name's Chalice and I asked you: What are you doing here?" Instead of answered, strong aura slowly appeared around him.
I felt my Undead's blood beginning to boil in excitement. In a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of me, grabbing my head with his single hand and threw me away like a rag doll. I hit the wall as it crumble before turned into smoke, block me from his view.
"Well, that was a bit of disappointment." He thought that attack was enough to knocked me out as he was about to walk away before a voice calling out from behind, stopped him.
"Oi, Oi, Oi. You don't think this is going to take me out, do you?" I emerged from the smoke. Looked slightly unharmed. I cracked my neck making a pop noise.
"Ho?" He was fascinated at me. "If you can withstand my power then let test it out. How long will it take for you to fall?"
"Heh. Don't know. Why not we test it out?" I said my word before I charge at him with a speed that surpass the human's limitation. I clenched my fist before gave a hook at him. His didn't move as he took the blow. The blow send him flying back a few mile before his stand his ground.
I didn't satisfied with that before I aim the Chalice Arrow at him. I fired a half charge Force Arrow as his saw the arrow and deflected it like it was nothing. The moment his deflected my arrow, I already at his right side. I slashed at him but his caught the blade and punched me in the gut as shockwave appeared behind me, causing the pillar that was behind me, crumbled by the force of the punch.
I let out a grunt before the regenerate kick in as I kicked him away from me before I fired few loose Force Arrow. His disappeared in a second before appeared in front of me and knee kicking me in the gut as he knock the air out of me. He seeing this, his raise his leg and axe kicking me down as the impact created a big crack appeared on the floor.
"Hmpt. In the end, it's look like you couldn't give a good challenge." His foot still on my back as his pull out a cigarette and began to smoke.
"You know, this is not over yet and why are you smoking?" I asked at the ground like he didn't thumped me down a minute ago.
"Ah, you're still alive?" His asked in confused.
"What do you think? Now get you leg of me."
"And why should I?"
"Because I can't get up if you put your foot here."
"Make me."
"Fine. You asked for it."
Green aura surround me before I rose up as his put more strength but I continue to rose up until his let go of his foot and retreat back a few distance.
"Now that I think out it. What are you? There's not a lot of Yōkai that can survive while fighting an S class monster." His asked.
"I will tell you if you answered a question of mine." I said.
"Hmm. Ask then." He said.
"What is Fairy Tale's goal?" I asked with serious tone.
"Hmm. I'm afraid that is classified." His said with his usually arrogant smile.
"Well that's too bad. I was going to think that we could get along with each other." I said in sarcastic tone.
"Too bad then." He said as I removed the Chalice Rouzer and put it in the Chalice Arrow.
I reach to the Rouze holder, pulling out a card and rouse it.
SMOG
Blue hologram flew into me as he looked in curious. I aimed and fire an arrow near his feet. When the Force Arrow hit, the arrow let out a purple smoke as the smoke surround him, blocking his view.
"Don't think that create a smoke will gave you the chance to defeat me?" He said as he saw me coming out from the smoke. His caught my punch as his smirk before his heard a voice.
BEAT
THUNDER
LIGHTNING SMASH
He looked at me who is smirking behind my helmet before I suddenly disappeared in front of him. When I disappeared, another me was coming out from his right side with my left fist, clenching with electric-charged.
"Who said that I won't?" I gave him a hard punched at his abdomen as the punch was so hard that he flew out from the smoke and hit the wall.
His came down and hit the ground, smoke enveloped him.
I looked at where his landed for a few second before I knew that punch earlier must took him down.
I felt my legs started to shaking before I kneel down. My wound may healed fast but same could not be said for my stamina.
"Hah, hah, hah. . ." I pulled myself up as I turned away before-
"Now, where are you going?"
!
I heard a voice behind me. I turned back to the smoke as it disappeared and a standing figure appeared.
I have a looked of shock and confuse as his abdomen which I punches earlier has a mark of my punch. His has blood bleeding out of his mouth as the mark disappeared in a few second. He walked slowly while I was standing there, lost in thought.
'You're kidding right? That hit should've put him down but how is he still standing? Unless. . .' I thought rapidly before one thing come into my mind.
"You're a Vampire, aren't you?" He stopped when I said that.
"Well, you have guess it. That's right. I'm a Vampire." He confirmed my suspect. Since S-Rank Monsters are rare, few would come up in my mind as he could be Werewolf but so far there's nothing around that scream like that then the other option would a Vampire.
"Hmm. Now that you know what I am then I asked you: What was that earlier?" His asked as curious about that attack earlier.
I shrugged. "Don't know. How about defeat me first if you wanted to know." I challenged him.
"Sigh. . .no use asking then." He sighed. Then the air started to change.
I felt tense when his aura began to appeared more dangerous. We both standing still, not moving a muscle as the air was so dense like it could cut with a sharp knife could cause both of us to move.
*BEEP*
*BEEP*
*BEEP*
A sound of something like phone was heard from Miyabi's pocket. The air turned back to normal as we both turned attention to the ringing phone.
"Excuse me." His pulled his phone and answered the phone call.
"What is it?
". . ."
"Yeah"
". . ."
"Is that so?"
". . ."
"Then I'll be there." After said that, he hit the end call button.
"It's look like we can't continue this fight anymore. Such a shame." His said before his turned and took his leave.
"Oh? And what is so important that you going to leave now?" I asked as his stopped and looked back at me through his shoulder.
"It's looked like-what was his name again? Ah yes! Tsukune. It's look like the kid are about to get killed if my men were report correctly." He said that as inside my mind was racing with conclusion at his statement.
I was about to say something before his disappeared in a blink of an eye. I looked around, trying to find but seeing that he's gone, I hurried to where the other are by running around the castle.
"What is your propose!?"
The moment I got to the scene, Tsukune asked Miyabi who carried the unconscious Shuzen Khalua as the sound of the helicopter could be heard.
Behind Tsukune was Moka and the other, they were on the ground, injured.
The helicopter flew around the castle's balcony as Miyabi with Khalua carried around his arms, answered.
"The day when you will understand is coming. When that time comes we'll meet again, boy." He said before his jumped to the helicopter as the helicopter flew away before me or anyone could do anything.
Tsukune and the other were busy to noticing me as I sneaked away before they could see me. I saw the Snow Priestess who is on the wheelchair with straitjacket, locking her arms.
I brought her to another room as I roused the Spirit card.
SPIRIT
I returned back to my human form as I tap her cheek lightly.
"Hey wake up." She opened her eyes as she saw me.
"Who are you?" She asked me with narrow eyes.
I held my hands up. "Relax. I'm not an enemy."
I remove the restrain and help her up as she still looked at me with small doubt.
"Hey. Don't look at me like that. I'm said I'm not your enemy." I said.
"And why would I trust someone like that? You could have been an assassin." She said as I sighed.
"You're really paranoid, you know that?" I said as I crossed my arms. "And I'm not an assassin. Mikogami ordered me to come here."
"Mikogami?" I nodded as she knew who am talking about.
"Anyway. I come here to asked you: Why are you cooperate the Fairy Tale?" I asked.
She was silent for a minute before she sighed. "The reason why I decided to joined with them because it is the only way that this village could be safe."
I raise my eyebrow.
She continued. "The prophecy told that something really terrible could befall this village. I have no choice but to cooperated with them."
"Even if it mean sacrifice your own kin?" I asked her as she closed her eyes and nodded.
"Yes. Even if it hurt my heart." I clenched my hand at her answered.
"I see." I turned to opened the door as I took my leave.
"Good job, Miyabi." Said the pilot of the helicopter.
Miyabi who's in the helicopter, staring outside view with Khalua, sleeping on his lap as he played her hair.
"Well then? You got a "sample" example as on schedule?" Asked the pilot.
"At the village, I ran into some students from Yōkai Academy." Miyabi said that before he turned his attention to the pilot. "That was the school that you went to until last year."
"Yōkai Academy?" The pilot wondered before his said in realized. "Ah. . .so they were quite skilled? There's a lot of troubling guys there. Although, it will be interesting."
"At this rate, it looks like our plan will lead us into a confrontation with that academy." the pilot continued.
"I'm also looking forward to that day, Kiria." The now pilot name's Kiria, grinned.
Miyabi noticed someone beside the pilot. "Oh, you're here too? I thought you have other job to take care off."
The person in questions said back. "I already took care of it. Aside that, what are we going to do now? Should we continue going through the plan or what?"
"We'll stay at the course. Until then, we'll be patience for now." Miyabi said before he realize something.
"As I recall, I fought someone that has similar energy as you." Miyabi said.
"Ho? Mind telling who that be?" The person asked.
"Hmm. . .He's very strong for some monster that I fought. He's called Chalice if my memory serve me right." The person twitched at Miyabi's statement.
"Chalice, huh? Interesting. I hope that I meet him someday." The said person looked back at Miyabi in the eyes. "Don't you think so, Miyabi?"
"Yeah, Owari." Miyabi said. The now name Albino giggle as Miyabi looked at Owari's blue and purple eyes with her snow white long haired, flowing down.
And that's the end of the Chapter.
I don't know when the next chapter come. It's could be sooner or later.
See you in the next chapter!
Night out!
