A/N: Hello guys, I would like to welcome you all to this story which is for the Date A Live series. THe only reason I am posting this is because I was looking through my files and saw that seven chapters of this had been written. It's been about...two years since I actually wrote anything for this series...this was back when I was getting into Hyper Dimension Neptunia, so I never bothered to finish this. I am working on Akame Ga Kill right now, but I will continue this at some point, probably after I finish the anime again and I work on a plot. This basically follows the manga and anime plot, but it will have Spirits that are original characters.

I haven't exactly decided pairings, but it will most likely be my oc with Kurumi, Miku and Kotori, just cuz. I may throw in a few other characters here and there, I haven't decided yet, but those are the pairings for the most part. So, I hope you all like this, I don't know exactly when I will pick this story up full time, or rather part time. I may just write some stuff here and there, but since I have some chapters written, I will post those. So please let me know what you all think of this little story and if you want to see me continue it. Have a nice day!

Date A Live

Return of Sin

Chapter 1

30 Years Ago

His eyes opened and tried to focus on his surroundings, though all he saw was a haze. Blurred figures filled his line of sight, and all he saw was white. His eyes focused a bit and he noticed that the white blurs were actually scientists. They were holding clipboards, writing things down as they passed by him. He looked around, seeing what looked like water bubbles. It was then that he realized that he was in a tube of sorts. There was a mask over his nose and mouth, providing him with oxygen. Tubes stuck out of his arms, and he had some shackles around his wrists and ankles. He noticed the room he was in was a bit dark, and several computers were in his line of sight, though he couldn't read anything from where he was.

Suddenly, one of the scientists started pointing at the glass tube that he was in, shouting and calling for other people, he guessed anyway, since he couldn't exactly hear them. He grew fearful when he saw all of the scientists run toward the tube, he noticed them messing around with some machines. He groaned in pain as his shackles activated, he felt his strength leaving him, but didn't know why.

He closed his eyes, hoping all of it would stop. When he opened them, he saw a man, around forty years of age. He was wearing a lab coat similar to everyone elses. He held a smirk on his face as he placed his hand on the glass separating them.

"Ah, its so good to see you awake and fully conscious. It's good for you to join us King."

"King?" the young man thought. It was weird to hear his own thoughts, but also welcoming. He didn't know what was going on, all he remembered was a storm and then darkness.

"It was a shame, the first subject in our experiment expired a little earlier than expected. But we were able to save his consciousness by implanting it into you. Funny, you'll suffer the same fate as the first too, seeing as we are not done harnessing your power. Be a good little pawn and give us your power." the man said.

"Pawn, Power? What is he talking about?"

Pain shot through his body. He felt like screaming, but his voice was hoarse. His eyes were clenched shut, and he felt an unnatural power in his body. It was as if they were trying to suck it out of it by force. Memories flew through his mind, and his eyes widened, glazing over.

"Sir, there's a survivor here. He's showing off Spirit Like energy readings."

"Is he now? Take him with us, we will make sure he is well cared for."

He had been laying in a crater in what was left of his home town. A spatial quake had happened. At the time he didn't even know what that had been, but he knew it had been bad. The government had been scanning the area for survivors, finding no one of the sort, no one except for him. Another memory filled his mind.

"Sir, if we keep trying to force these powers out of him, then he's going to die."

"I don't care. We will harness this unknown power and use it for ourselves. The Eurasian Continent was hit with a massive Spatial Quake and millions of people died. This young man here is the key, the one who survived it all...the King...and he shall become nothing more than our power source. Increase the power by 55%"

"Sir." the scientists replied, increasing the power. He screamed in as the shackles tried sucking his power even more.

The young man blinked as the power was starting to increase. He felt his mind start to go blank. A final thought going through his mind.

"Those bastards...they've been trying to harness my power have they? Well, their going to get it."

"Azrael." he shouted. His body started glowing brightly as his inner power burst out from him. It was enough to shatter the glass tube he was floating in. the scientists flew back from the sheer amount of force put behind that attack.

The purple haired had been clothed in his spirit attire. His attire consisted of a white tee shirt, with a V-neck collar. He was wearing a pair of long black jeans, held up with a leather belt which was black in color and had silver studs on it. He was wearing matching buckle boots, with thick silver buckles on them. Over his shirt, he wore a plaid purple jacket, the thick white lines forming each individual square made it stand out even more in the darkened room. The hood had a soft white fur hem, made of the purest fur around. He opened his eyes, which were glowing a bright green in color, sheer anger flowing through his system. Above his head, was a glowing halo which looked more like a spinning gear than a halo. He held his hand out, forming a beautiful angelic bow in his hand.

The bow itself had thin arms, which had been sharpened to a point. The weapon itself looked as if it could shift into another weapon entirely. The riser was light blue and purple, with a glowing green gem on the top. Several thin glowing strings were attached to the limbs, all connecting to a hilt of sorts. The tip of the bow gave off a glowing green energy, the same glow that was currently in his eyes. He slipped his fingers through the loops on the bow string mechanism and pulled back as far as he possibly could.

"Duas Sagittas." he chanted.

Two arrows of green energy formed in his hand and he let them go. The arrows flew forward, slamming into some computer consoles in the back of the room. They exploded, sending shards of glass and hard plastic throughout the room. One of the scientists slammed his hand on a red button, setting off the warning alarms. The young man stepped out of the tube casing he had been in, avoiding all the glass and liquid that was on the floor. The tubes that had been attached to his hand moved back and forth and the shackles sparked with energy.

"Sir, what do we do?" one man shouted. The old man pulled a gun from his side and aimed it at the young spirit.

"Take him down, he cannot escape." the man shouted, opening fire at him.

The spirit disappeared entirely, suddenly appearing in front of the man. He gasped in shock, allowing the teen to grab the gun from his hand. He tossed it aside and pulled his fist back, slamming it into the man's face. He sent him flying into another pod, the glass broke and the liquid inside flooded onto the floor. The doors in the back of the room opened and several soldiers ran in, each holding high caliber rifles. The teen smirked and held his hand out.

"Azrael, Sword form." he chanted. His bow started changing shape, taking the form of a sword. The bow strings folded into the openings in the blade and the blade joined together. The riser became the hilt of the sword, and the arrow assist lengthened a bit, becoming the hilt of the sword. He angled his sword, which started glowing brightly.

"Open fire, take him down." the leader cried out, opening fire on the young man. He smirked, gripping his sword tightly.

"Circulus Lucis." he chanted, swinging his blade. A ring of pure white light shot from the blade of the sword, disintegrating the bullets that had been fired at him. The light ended up destroying everything around him, even blowing out the windows. The soldiers had dove to the floor, having tossed their half melted rifles.

"What is this guy?" the lead soldier asked, glaring at the purple haired teen. He gave him a smirk before walking toward the now open window.

"Don't move."

the young man looked back, meeting eyes with the head scientist, the man that had captured him and done horrible things to him. His expression turned into one of anger. He rose his sword, flicking his wrist.

"Azrael, Bow form." he chanted. The sword returned to its bow form and he took aim at the man, pulling the string back as far as he could. A three pronged arrow formed in his hand, his aim unwavering as he stared the man down.

"You are forbidden from leaving this facility. You are property of Deus Ex Machina Industries. You hear that King?" he asked.

"You are not my owner. I do not know how long I have been in this place, but this is my last day here. If you try to follow me, I will kill each and everyone of you. You have been warned." he said, jumped out the window. He let his bow disappear as he started free falling. He didn't know where he was or how high the building was, but he needed a way out. Suddenly, he felt something pulling at him, he soon found himself falling into a dark void. He looked around, seeing nothing but darkness around him. He suddenly felt tired, letting a yawn escape his lips. He fell into a deep slumber.

Present Time

He awoke, sunlight streaming into his eyes. He sat up looking around his room, seeing the most mundane things. There was a plain desk to the far side of the room, where a few books and his laptop sat. To the far right of the room was his dresser, which contained all of his clothing. The walls were colored a light lavender, one of his favorite color. All around his room were posters of his favorite video games. He yawned and stretched, pulling the covers off himself.

"It's been a long time since that happened and yet, I still have dreams of that day. I barely remember using all that power, it seems foreign to me, and yet...I feel it deep within myself."

He walked into the bathroom, looking at himself in the mirror. Somehow in the years he had spent in that void, he hadn't aged. He had only been twelve at the time all of that happened, and had been out of the void for four years. One day, he just appeared in an alleyway, wearing nothing but the tattered clothes he had been wearing at that laboratory he had been kept in. The land had changed a lot in that time, and he found himself in a completely different world.

He grabbed his tooth brush and started brushing his teeth, as he did every morning. Once he was done, he stepped back into his room and grabbed his uniform. It consisted of a short sleeve button down shirt, with a collar. A blue blazer, with white lines around the pockets and the flaps that extended from the collar. He wore matching gray slacks and black shoes. He was wearing a stripped tie around his neck, which was tucked into his blazer. On his breast pocket was the crest of the school he went too, Raizen High School. He brushed his wild purple spikes as best he could, finally leaving them the way he desired. As he was about to walk out of his bedroom, he heard a scream of pain filter through the house. He smiled a bit and shook his head, walking out of the bedroom.

"Get off, you're heavy."

"Then get up already. You can't sleep the day away, you have to go to school."

"Wait...I can't...I've contracted the sleep for ten more minutes or else Kotori will go to Tickle Hell virus, other wise known as the T-Virus."

"What? Big brother?"

"Go now Kotori, while you still have the chance to escape."

The room was silent for a few more seconds before a loud scream tore through the quiet house. The purple haired young man witnessed a red haired girl race down the hall, practically vaulting over the banister. He chuckled and shook his head, peeking into the bedroom, seeing his now awake older brother.

"You couldn't help yourself could you?" he said. The blue haired young man looked up, brown eyes filled with pride.

"Course I couldn't. Morning Yuno."

"Morning Shido, want me to make breakfast or will you do the honor?" he asked.

"You made breakfast yesterday, so I'll make it today." Shido said, getting off the bed. Height wise, Yuno was slightly taller than Shido. Both of them were sixteen years old, but since Shido had been adopted first, he was the older brother.

He still remembered, the time his father, Tatsuo Itsuka, had found him wondering the streets of Tengu city. He hated to admit it, but he had been lost in this new world. Being in a time that one didn't know was a scary thing, not only was the city you knew gone due to a space quake, but all of your family members were dead as well. One day, his father had been buying groceries for dinner, and he had been hungry, so he did the only thing he could do, he stole the food he had bought.

Angered the man ran after him. He tried everything to hide from him, and for a few minutes he had lost him. However, it wasn't long before he was found, hiding behind a dumpster eating the Sweet bread the man had bought. The anger he had in his eyes was replaced with one of sadness and pity. He had scolded him for stealing the food, but had also invited him to have dinner with them, saying that his wife Hariko made the best food around. Yuno had been wary of the man, but took his offer anyway.

When he arrived at the house, he hid behind the man, not expecting him to have kids. As it turned out, he had an adoptive son his age named Shido, and a little girl named Kotori, his biological daughter. His wife Hariko didn't say a word when he saw the boy wearing tattered clothes, instead she invited him inside and took him to the bathroom where he was given a through bath. Luckily, Shido's clothes had been his size, so he didn't have to go naked or stay in a towel or something.

He explained to them that he didn't know where he was, and that the only memory he had had been finding out his parents had died, choosing to keep the information about being from thirty years in the past a secret. Everyone had been saddened by this, and immediately labeled him as an amnesiac, which he could easily pass off. When little Kotori asked him what his name was, he gave her a sad smile, saying he didn't remember it. It was her that gave him the name Yunosuke, as well as the nickname Yuno-nii, which was now Yuno since she had grown up a bit.

Eventually, Tatsuo talked to the government and had taken legal custody of him, giving him the name Yunosuke Itsuka and making him the youngest of the family, though he went by adoption months instead of age. He easily got along with his foster siblings and they formed a great bond. Five years had passed and he and his brother were entering their second year of high school, but it seemed a bit of his past was starting to resurface, with the increased amounts of Spatial Quakes going on.

He was worried the men from D.E.M. Were finally onto him, and was trying his best to hide his signature. So far, he didn't give out any energy, but to further cancel out his power, he had made himself a ring, which sealed his power unless he took it off. It was actually his birth mother's ring, which had been in the pocket of his Astral Dress, as he found out it was called. It had been imbued with magical spirit energy, and it only took little effort to craft what he needed from it.

Over the years he had grown accustomed to his life. His siblings had been more than helpful, especially when "learning" of the world. He had found out a lot about space quakes, especially the big one that had struck thirty years in the past, and the subsequent quakes that happened after it. The most recent one had been five years in the past, when he had emerged from the void. Apparently, a fire had broke out and his siblings had been caught in it, and luckily they hadn't been hurt.

He headed down the stairs, a yawn escaping his lips. When he finally made it to the ground floor, he noticed the coffee table had been tipped on its side. He caught a strand of red hair shivering behind it. He rolled his eyes and slowly made his way to it, until he was finally in front of it.

"Got ya." he cried, earning the desired effect from the person hiding behind it.

It was of course his little sister Kotori. She was a little shorter than he was, reaching to about his chin. She had her long orange hair tied up into matching twin tails with white ribbons. She was wearing a long sleeved white shirt, with a matching skirt and black socks. Her orange eyes were with fear, as she pressed herself against the wall, almost willing it was absent so that she could run.

"How's my little Tori doing this beautiful morning?" he asked, leaning on the table. The girl let out a sigh of relief.

"You scared me, I thought it was Shido coming down to send me to tickle hell." she said. He rolled his eyes.

"You know I wouldn't let him do that to you Tori. Anyway, how are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling fine, why? Is something on my face?" she asked, rubbing her cheek.

"No, I'm just asking because it is a special day for you after all." he said, reaching underneath the sofa. He pulled out his backpack and dug around it, pulling out a large rainbow colored lollipop, the kind that you could only find at Candy stores. Her eyes widened when she saw it.

"Did you seriously get me that big brother?" she asked.

"Course I did, but I didn't get you just one." he said, pulling out two more from his backpack. The redhead tackled him into a tight hug, almost breaking his spine.

"Thank you big brother, this is the best birthday ever." she cried into his chest. He smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Glad you think so. Thanks for being a great little sister all these years." he said. She looked at him, a bright smile on her face.

"I love you bro."

"Love you too sis. Lets get off the floor, and fix this table...maybe we can scare the shit out of Shido when he comes down."

"Too late, I saw you two...Yuno did you seriously get her those? It's only gonna rot her teeth you know." the blue haired young man said. He was wearing a uniform similar to Yuno's, though he hadn't put his tie on yet.

"Let her have her sweets, its her birthday after all." he said, getting off the floor. He helped his sister up and fixed her shirt a bit. They headed into the dining room, taking their seats at the table. Kotori turned the television on, to the news specifically. Shido placed a steaming cup of coffee in front of Yuno, earning a thanks from him. He took a sip from it, eyes focused on the television.

"And in other news, it seems the frequency of Spatial Quakes in the area has increased. Just last night there was a small one in the southern part of Tengu city. Authorities don't know if there will be another one, but we are ready for one should it happen."

"Another one? That's the third one this week." Shido muttered.

"I know...its happening a lot earlier than I expected." Kotori said, though the last part was mostly to herself. Yuno decided not to question it, and looked at his phone.

"Hey, no lollies before breakfast Kotori, I mean it." Shido said, trying to pull the candy from his sister's mouth. Yuno smirked.

"Dude, pulling a lolly out of her mouth is like playing tug of war with a pitbull, you aren't gonna go anywhere." he said, taking another sip of his coffee.

"You stay out of this, your the one that got her into eating these in the first place."

"Sorry, I just pointed them out one day and she wanted one so I bought it. I didn't think she'd develop a massive obsession with them." he said.

"Still though...its unhealthy for her to eat so many. I can't stop her though." he said, returning to making breakfast. It wasn't long before it was served and the three were eating.

"So sis, what do you want for dinner today?" Yuno asked.

"I want a kids plate." she cried out, jumping out of her chair.

"That's a diner menu option, I don't serve that in my restaurant." Shido deadpanned.

"I know...but I wanted to spend time with my two favorite brothers, so why not go to the diner for dinner?" she asked.

"That sounds like a great idea. Mom and Dad aren't going to be here for a while, so we have to celebrate it without them. Might as well do it in a good place. I'll even pay for it, how does that sound?"

"You're the best Yuno." Kotori cried, hugging her brother.

"Are you sure about that Yuno? Haven't you been saving that money for that game you wanted?" Shido asked, glancing at his brother. He shook his head.

"I'd rather spend it making my sister happy than use it to buy a game. It won't be an issue. Oh crap, we're gonna be late, how about we all meet at the diner at Three o'clock?" he said, standing up.

"Okay, it's a promise." Kotori said, sticking her pinkie out. He shook his head and wrapped his pinkie around hers. She held her other hand out to Shido who did the same.

"It's a Promise." they cried in unison.

"I'll be there even if a Space quake happens."

"Don't even joke about that sis. Well, we should get going." Yuno said.

He placed all of the dishes in the sink and grabbed his backpack. Once they all made sure they had everything, the left the house and headed to school. Kotori took off, heading toward the middle school, grinning widely as she went.

"She's really happy." Shido said.

"Well duh, its her birthday. Who wouldn't be happy on their special day." Yuno deadpanned as they made their way to school.

"Still...are you sure its a good idea to spend so much money on dinner?" he asked.

"Like I said, its not an issue. So, since its the new semester, what teacher do you think we'll have?" he asked.

"If we get the same teacher that is, I hope it's Miss Okamine, she's super chill, or so I hear anyway." Shido replied.

"Hopefully I get someone who isn't a complete and utter tool like my first year teacher. And he was a total douche bag too." Yuno muttered.

"Lets just hope that's not the case." Shido said.

"Hey guys."

Yuno sighed and quickened his pace, looking back at his brother.

"See ya at school dude." he said.

"Hey, you bastard, don't leave." Shido cried, though it went ignored by the purple haired teen who kept walking down the sidewalk.

"Sorry big bro, if there is one thing I don't like its that creep you call a friend." Yuno muttered to himself. He pulled out his phone and flicked it open, checking over his messages.

He had a few from some of his friends from school, asking him if he knew what class he was going to be in, which of course he didn't know as of now. He sent the messages out and closed the phone, shoving it in his pocket.

A few minutes later, he arrived at Raizen High school. The large academy was filled with students old and new, looking for their new classrooms and meeting with friends. He brushed past them, heading into the main building. Several students were huddled around several long lists, each having the name of every student and where they were placed. He made his way through the crowd, finding the list for the second year students. His eyes moved across the page for a few seconds before he found his last name.

"Itsuka Yunosuke classroom 2-4, heh..what do you know? Me and Shido are in the same class. That ought to be interesting." he muttered to himself. He broke off from the crowd and walked toward the stairs, heading to his new classroom.

He saw a few of his new classmates chatting among themselves. Since it wasn't assigned seating, he chose to sit in the back of the room, the third desk from the window. He shrugged off his pack and set it in the floor beside him. He sighed and put his head down on the desk.

"I'm already bored." he muttered to himself.

It wasn't long before the rest of the class started filing into the room. He saw his brother, who was followed by his spiky haired friend, who's name he didn't remember. Shido looked around, a smirk on his face when saw his brother laying on his desk.

"Snoozing on the first day? How unlike you brother."

"Screw you Shido. Sleeping is one my favorite things on the planet and you know it." he said. He grabbed a lollipop from his backpack and took the wrapper off, sticking it in his mouth.

"Ah great, now you started eating those."

"I can't help it. Tori has a knack for finding great flavors." he said. Shido said something else but Yuno completely ignored it, instead he glanced at his phone, checking his messages. As it turned out, his friend had been placed in class 2-3 so he wouldn't be hanging out with him. He sighed and looked up from his phone, grimacing a bit.

"Ew gross, I can't believe all of you are in this class."

"Speak for yourself weirdo."

"I know right, what a weirdo."

"That's so lame."

The three that had spoken were friends of Yuno, three girls he had met the previous year and had quickly formed a bond with. The Ai was the tallest and oldest of the three. The brown haired girl had designated herself as the leader of their little group, often being the one that got all of them into trouble. Mai was the second of the group, she was the second girl in the group. She was a short haired brunette, with bright hazel colored eyes. She was the one that handled the gossip in the room, and the one that convinced the other two to do their stupid things. The last girl in the group was Mii, the long black haired girl and third member of the group. She was the quietest of the three, only saying one thing every so often. She was also the only one who wore glasses in the group.

The three of them befriended Yuno one day when he was walking home from school. He had been lost trying to find the diner to meet with his siblings and had ran into them, mostly because of the uniforms they wore. They struck a quick friendship and hung out often. He was pretty sure one of them had a crush on him, but he had been uninterested in them, seeing them only as friends.

"So what's up with you weirdo? I was surprised to see you were in our class again." Ai said, leaning on against the desk behind her.

"Nothing much, semester break was as boring as ever. Plus I had to take care of my little sister most of the time. It was fun hanging out together, though she's a little secretive when she wants to be." he said, flicking his lollipop stick around.

"I see you've taken another habit from the little fire girl." Mai said, eyes focused on the stick.

"That's so lame." Mii replied. Yuno chuckled, already expecting that reply from her.

"What can I say? Kotori and I share a lot of the same traits." he said proudly. The bell rung and everyone quickly took their seats. The teacher walked in and everyone started cheering loudly.

"Alright, it's Miss Tamae." Hiroto cried, making the woman smile.

"That's Miss Okamine to you, hello everyone, I'll be your homeroom teacher this semester. I hope you are all ready to learn." she said excitedly. Yuno sighed and leaned back in his seat, staring at the ceiling. He lost himself in the lollipop he was eating, he closed his eyes, barely listening to the teacher as she explained everything. He felt himself start drifting off.

"Are you sure this boy is a Spirit? All the spirits that have shown up since the accident have been female."

"I am sure this boy is a spirit. Somehow, he was imbued with power during that space quake. When we obtain said power, we will be able to rule the world."

"Sir, what should we do with the boy?"

"The boy? Oh...you mean King? Place him in the stasis tube. So long as he can't attack, we'll be free to experiment all we want."

Yuno woke up, crying in pain from having his lollipop yanked out of his mouth. He rubbed his cheek and looked at his brother angrily.

"What the fuck asshole?" he shouted.

"Don't fall asleep with lollies in your mouth dumbass, unless you wanna choke and die." Shido said. Yuno swiped the candy from his hand and shoved it back in his mouth.

"You didn't have to yank it. Aw, it stuck to my cheek." he said, though it was muffled a bit from the candy being in his mouth.

"Yeah well..." Shido was interrupted by the alarm that had started going off. Everyone stood stock still, some looking out the windows.

"Warning, Space Quake incoming. Please head to the nearest shelter."

"Shit." Yuno muttered, standing up from his seat. He bit into his lollipop, crunching the candy and swallowing it down. He tossed the stick into the trash can and took his brother's hand.

"Lets go, we need to get to safety." he said.

"Yeah yeah, no need to tug." Shido said, slipping his hand free. Yuno shrugged and shoved his hands in his pockets, following everyone toward the underground shelter beneath the school. He lost track of his brother in the crowd, and figured he would meet him in the shelter.

"What are the odds that this would happen? I better make sure little sis is okay." he muttered, pulling out his cellphone. He made it into the shelter, just as he place his phone against his ear. He walked deeper into the shelter, standing in line with his class. Miss Okamine was flipping out, trying her best to take attendance.

"What the hell? She probably has her phone on silent." he said, glancing at the screen of his phone. He looked around, not seeing his brother. He started to get worried about him and called his name out.

"Shido...are you here?" he cried. He held his hand out, taking a handful of Hiroto's shirt.

"You, where's my brother?" he asked.

"Shido? That idiot ran out of here, shouting something about finding his sister." he said.

"What?" Yuno cried out. He looked at his phone, almost breaking it in anger. He flicked it closed and headed for the doors.

"Yuno." Hiroto cried out, trying to stop him. The purple haired teen raced out of the shelter, just as the doors snapped closed.

"Those idiots...Kotori must have been literal about keeping her promise, and Shido must have gone after her...great that makes me a bigger idiot for going after them." he said, racing down the streets. The Space Quake alarms were going off, and every screen in the city was displaying the same warning message.

"Damn it, they must be joking." he muttered, turning a corner.

The streets were empty, not a single car in sight. He stopped at a crosswalk and looked around. He took a few deep breaths and picked a street to go down, heading toward the diner. The alarm started blaring again, and in the distance nearby, a purple wave of energy erupted, destroying all the buildings in its path. Yuno tripped and fell face flat. He groaned and sat up, rubbing his face. His eyes widened when he saw part of a building about to flatten him. He grit his teeth and stood up, hand reaching for his ring.

"I promised myself I wouldn't use this power, but I can't let that thing kill me." he muttered to himself. The ring was almost off and he turned around, getting ready to summon his angel. That's when he felt himself disappear. He landed on the ground, screaming in pain when his ass hit the floor.

"Ow, fuck that hurt." he muttered.

"You idiot, you almost got yourself killed. What the hell were you doing out there?" a familiar voice snapped. He looked up, meeting eyes with his sister.

"Tori?" he asked curiously, the girl sighed, leaning back in her seat. He stood up, ignoring the pain on his backside. He looked around, seeing several other people sitting as computer stations. He looked back at his sister, catching her pissed off look.

"What...what is all this?" he asked.

"You are aboard an airship called the Fraxinous. I just happen to be the commander of this ship. I saw you running rampant through the streets and felt the need to save you. Happy I did?" she snapped, shoving a lollipop in her mouth.

"Course I am. I was running through the streets because our dumbass brother came out looking for you, and I came out looking for him. I thought you were at the diner, sorry for being worried." he snapped angrily. The girl sighed and shook her head.

"I appreciate the gesture, but I would have been perfectly fine if you had just stayed at the shelter like you were supposed too, now, do any of you have visual on Princess?" She asked.

"I have visual, it seems Shido Itsuka has made contact with her." one man said. A video was displayed in front of them, Shido was standing in a crater, and in front of him was a purple haired girl, wearing a weird type of armor. She had aiming a sword at him, her look unwavering.

"Sandalphon...she's a spirit." Yuno muttered, getting a curious look from Kotori.

"Ma'am, the ground units are on their way, what do we do?" one woman said, glancing at Kotori. She had a pensive look on her face, while she kept licking her lollipop.

"Tori, you aren't leaving him down there right? Right?" Yuno asked.

"Keep close contact on him, I want to see how Princess reacts to his presence."

"Yes Ma'am."

"Kotori, you can't be serious...you can't leave him down there. He'll be killed."

"Reine, get him out of here would you? He's being a nuisance." Kotori said.

"Right away ma'am. Follow me." a monotone voice said. Yuno felt the woman take a hold of his arm and he looked at her, a pissed look in his eye.

"I'm not leaving." he said.

"Yunosuke, if you don't leave now you'll be forcing my hand. I'll explain everything to you later." she said. Yuno sighed and let the woman take him out of the bridge. She finally let go of him and gestured for him to follow.

This woman was around her early twenties, with her long bluish gray hair tied in a messy side ponytail. She was wearing a tan suit, with a matching black tie and formal skirt. She was also wearing black pantyhose and black heels. They stopped in front of some doors and she turned around, looking at him.

"It's nice to formally meet you. My name is Reine Murasame, just call me Reine." she said.

"Oh..nice to meet you. My name is Yunosuke, but you can call me Yuno." he said.

"Okay Yun."

"Yuno...you didn't even try." he said.

"It's alright Yun, you'll get used to it. I will answer any questions you may have, though there are some that only the commander will be able to answer, so don't get discouraged." she said. He noticed the bags under her eyes, though it only added to her attractiveness. He quickly shook that thought out of his mind.

"Did you sleep at all? You look ready to drop." he said.

"I'll be fine, thank you for your concern." she replied.

"Okay...so what is all this?" he asked, glancing around the hallway.

"This is the airship Fraxinous, the head ship of the Ratatoskr organization. In the years after the first space quake, beings named spirits started appearing in our world. Deus Ex Machina, the company responsible for many of the realizers and weapons the army uses now, are trying to find ways to irradiate spirits from our world. We however are trying to seal away their powers and make them live in our society. No one needs to die." she said.

"Wow...that's a really cool thing actually. I can't believe my sister is a part of all this...I think I get why she was so secretive over break now." he muttered.

"Answer me this Yun, you seemed to know about that Spirit and her weapon, have you met her before?" she asked. Yuno shook his head.

"I haven't met her before. I just...knew it's name, from a single look...I don't know how to explain it, but when I saw it it just shot in my mind you know?"

"Hmm...alright then." she said, pausing a bit. She placed a hand over her ear and narrowed her eyes. After a second she gave a nod.

"Right away commander, I'll make sure he's fine. Lets go Yun, it seems your brother got knocked out by Princess when they encountered the A.S.T." she said, leading him to the medical bay.

"Is he alright?" he asked.

"He'll be fine. However, I believe I'll have a use for you in this organization after all." she said.

"Huh?" he asked.

He didn't like the sound of that. Whatever the case, he was just thrown head first into something he wasn't even aware of. He could only hope no one sensed his power and found him out. It would be a cold day in hell if that happened. He swallowed the lump in this throat and followed Reine to the medical bay, more questions flowing through his mind.
