You can call us the Losers

[blueayes]

It had begun to rain and the two of them gasped for air Hachiman began to laugh nervously he didn't know, no he did know what he saw what he had seen but he couldn't understand it.

He began to hear Kazuma laugh before he turns and looks at him.

"Well guess that you are a part of this now." Kazuma says to him, as the wind makes the rain hit both their faces.

"Can't we hide somewhere?" Hachiman asks Kazuma, who shakes his head.

'We can't, the moment that we move that thing will find us, and I haven't finished healing!" Kazuma answers him, but he has to raise his voice so that Hachiman can hear him over the howls of the creature.

"Kazuma are we going to die' Hachiman asks Kazuma his fear now completely displayed.

Kazuma begins to Lugh. 'worse were going to live." Kazuma answers Him as he lifts his hand and a bright blue light begins to flow out of him and into the rain.

"I can't believe I'm saying this," Kazuma says to himself.

'I am the Hero of the Goddes Aqua and the champion of the Goddes Eri, the ally of Wolbach and the unwilling worshiper of Regina."

"And you are nothing more than a lowly spirit."

"Sacred purification." the rain seemed to stop falling and Hachiman could see the monster staring at them with eyes filled with shock, the shock quickly changed to horror, as the creature realized what Kazuma did.

The creature screamed in pain as it dissolved away.

'Damm, I had to use the energy that I needed to heal for the attack, so mind helping up." Kazuma says to Hachiman who can only nod as he turns to look at Kazuma who has his hand stretched out to him.

Hachiman stands up and like a robot, he helps Kazuma to his feet, he feels Kazuma lean on him and they both start to walk away from the warehouse.

the streets are empty and the only reason that they can see is that the street lights are now on, but they're gaps where there isn't any light so they have no choice but t walk in complete darkness, from time to time.

"Kazuma." Hachiman says.

'Yeah." Kazuma answers him but his voice is rugh as he struggles to not cry out in pain.

"How can you do that, I mean how do you have powers?" Hachiman asks Kazuma who chuckles and then grabs his ribs which are now glowing with blue light.

"Well, I all started when I died."

Hachiman heard Kazumas story, he couldn't believe it Gods were real, and from what Kazuma told him the stories of people being reborn in other worlds as heroes were real.

"So why are you here?" Hachiman asks Kazuma who finally lets go of him and has started to walk with his own strength.

"Oh that considering I saved a world that was about to die the gods couldn't punish me for breaking the rules, so they rewarded me by bringing me back."

"the thing is that I liked living in the other world so coming back was my punishment." Kazuma says to him but Hachiman can only stare at Kazuma who is now looking at the night sky with a smile on his face.

Kazuma notices that Hachiman is staring at him and gives him a warm smile.

"The thing is, I'm friends with about four or six goddesses so, when I die here I go back to the other world to the day I died, so it's like I never left that world." Kazuma says to him.

"I'm glad it's over." Hachiman says to himself as the lights of the city come into view.

"Nop." Kazuma says to him.

'What?" Hachiman says as he stops walking.

"I thought that my story made you understand something."

"Think about it, why do I still have my powers?"

"Better yet why do you think that monster that nearly killed you came from?"

"I hate to tell you man, but this stuff sticks to you like bad-smelling glue, so that means you are a part of it now, but don't worry I'll help you."

"So are you going to stand there all night or are you going to catch up to me partner?" Kazuma says to him but he never stops walking.

It was for a moment but in that one moment the entire city froze, as both Cursed Spirits and objects recoiled in pain and fear.

Something had turned the rain itself into a weapon that was strong enough to force whatever cursed spirits that were freely roaming the city to hide before it destroyed them.

This event needed to be investigated, but that was something for later, for now, the girl's punishment was something that needed to be done.

He glared at the girl even if she was his daughter, she was nothing more than a failure, just like her sister, just like their mother that gave birth to them.

The rain that fell on the girl failed to wash away the stain that she left in the world.

"Do you remember Kazuma, the boy that you and your sister use to play with whenever you had free time?" he asks her and he had to admit that he enjoyed seeing her flinch with fear.

The girl didn't answer, no matter if he would forgive her disrespect.

He grinned, you are at the age that you can have children aren't you, I won't tell you to marry him"

" I don't need more trash to add to the pile, but you should at the very least be capable of getting pregnant.

"If the product is another failure then, you can go with him and forget that you were ever a part of this family, if it's not then maybe I was blessed with a son that was brought in by failure." he says to Mai before he leaves her.

He smiled as the sound of the doors closing behind him echoed, there was no reason for him to get wet, he didn't dirty the place as she did, so she would have to stay outside until the rain stopped.

 

[blueayes]

Hachiman sat in front of Kazuma, the day had passed like a dream, and everything felt so strange, he wanted to believe that what had happened last night was nothing but a bad dream, but he couldn't.

"Here." Kazuma says to him as he hands Hachiman a handful of flashcards.

"Each one of those cards has a list of the skills that I learned along with what those skills can do. So try to keep them safe."

"Before you say anything, the moment that you touch them, those skills are yours, I have a lot more, but I tried to give you the more useful ones." Kazuma says to him.

Hachiman looks at the small stack of cards, he wants to tell Kazuma to put the cards away and that he doesn't want anything to do with that world, but the scar on his leg reminds him that he doesn't have a choice anymore.

"Kazuma, is there a way that I can just forget this ever happened and go back, to before that thing, attacked me?" Hachiman asks him.

'I don't know, I mean look at me." Kazuma says to him before he turns his head and looks at the people walking outside.

"I mean I died and came back the same day, with all of the powers that I gained over there, so I couldn't go back to being just a normal person."

"What I'm trying to say is, maybe you can, but I don't know if you can." Kazuma answers him.

Hachiman takes the pile of cards and pulls one from the top and reads the name of the skill.

"Call to the King of the Undead."

Kazuma laughs softly as the waitress brings a pair of cups filled with coffee and two plates with pancakes.

"Let me explain, I have two kinds of power sources, but they work the same way."

"To make it simple whenever people pray, their prayers have to go somewhere and that's heaven, so yeah the gods are listening."

"The same goes when people curse someone or their situation, the devils are listening."

"Lower Holy energy and lower Hell energy are different from Demon energy and Angel energy because they are not a part of heaven or hell, they are from in between."

"I would call it magic, but the skill that you saw me use last night can't be done with magic." Kazuma says to him, but that just leaves Hachiman with more questions than answers.

"I won't bother you with the details, but I made friends with four high-level Devils and that's why I can use Lower Hell Energy."

"Hachiman looks at Kazuma and he starts to put two and two together.

"So is that why you can summon the king of the Undead?" he asks Kazuma.

'Yep and by the way, that card is a finisher, so only use it if you are going to die, so be nice to her she is a good person." Kazuma says to him as he begins to cut into his pancake with his fork.

Hachiman forces himself to eat, it's not that he isn't hungry but something isn't right with his body it feels as if there's something inside of him that shouldn't be there.

"Eat, you know what let's just call it Holy energy because calling Lower is too long."

'The Holy energy I used last night, is cleaning the poison from that thing, the reason it's taking so long, is that the monster was poisoning, your soul and your body."

"So eat, you need your strength." Kazuma tells him

'I. I can't keep the food, I vomit everything." Hachiman says to Kazuma.

Kazuma stares at him and asks a waitress that was passing by to bring him a glass of water.

The waitress soon comes back and Kazuma immediately puts his finger in it, the water glows with a faint blue light and Kazuma hands the glass to him.

"Don't question it, just drink." Kazuma tells him before he goes back to eating his food.

Hachiman can feel the water burning as he swallows it, it sends shocks of pain through his body and he tries to pull the glass away from him but his body doesn't obey him.

He opens his eyes and finds that he already finished drinking and he is staring at Kazuma who is about to finish his food.

"See I told you not to do it." Kazuma says to him as a waitress looks at him with a worried expression.

'He ate something spicy, he can't handle spicy food." Kazuma says to her, the woman nods and walks away.

"So how are you feeling?" Kazuma asks him.

'Hungry." Hachiman answers Kazuma before he picks up his knife and fork and begins to eat his food.

"Kazuma do you think that there could be people fighting those things?" Hachiman asks Kazuma in between bites.

"Yeah, but let's stay away from them until we know how they do they do things."

"If monsters exist then there are people that hunt them, but sometimes those people are so hell-bent on doing things their way, that they hurt anyone that doesn't agree with them." Kazuma answers him.

Mai smiled as she got on the bus that would take her into the city, it was nice seeing the old town, it hadn't changed, and it was still just as peaceful as she remembered.

She had looked for Kazuma and even gone as far as to visit his parent's house to see if he was home, unfortunately, Kazuma didn't live with them at the moment.

She had heard that he had stopped going to the private school that he use to attend, his parents didn't know why, maybe he was bullied or something must have happened.

But one day he came home and told them that he would be switching schools and would enter one that was in the city, even if that meant restarting high school.

 

[blueayes]

Lower Heaven and Lower Hell Energy

][]][]

Lower Heaven and Lower Hell Energy are honestly easier to understand than magic.

The only reason that Kazuma can't properly explain it is that he doesn't know all of the details yet.

So when Kazuma was brought back to Earth his body didn't have a connection to magic, like the body that he had in the other world, but his soul did and that caused a problem.

How can a soul that remembers how to use magic inhabit a body that doesn't?

It can't, so the God's gave him something similar to magic, but was both weaker and stronger than magic.

Think of how people worshiping a god gives them power, the gods use that power to create Angels, and both the gods and angels use people's prayers and hopes to build their kingdoms in their versions of heaven.

If you don't understand this, just imagine the room that Aqua is in when Kazuma died the first time and the room that Eris is in whenever he dies in the other world, these are not the same rooms.

Kauma is using that, his soul and current body did die and were in Aqua's palace or room and therefore they can use that power to stabilize their connection to each other.

As for why he can use Lower Hell energy, is because of Vanir or Moi.

He is a Devil and he will do anything that will just anger the gods, which means giving Kazuma a power that can and will corrupt him if he isn't careful.

Lower Hell energy is the same as Lower Heaven energy.

It's not Hell energy because it's a place in between.

Kazuma never went to Heaven, just as he has never been to hell, just in a place in between, and as such he can use that energy to use some of the more powerful skills.

To use those skills he has to either give praise or announce his connection to the goddesses, like saying that he is the chosen hero of Aqua or the Hero that stole Aqua from Heaven because that's what he did that's his connection to her.

][][][]

[The Skill Cards ]

Kazuma copied a lot of skills during his time as an Adventurer, but e was never strong enough to use them.

Before he went to fight the Demon King he copied the skills of every Adventurer in Axel and was trained by Wiz and Vanir, making him capable of using a lot of those skills even if he never uses them in the story.

He just wrote down and copied some of those skills onto the cards that he gave Hachiman, and gave them power pouring Lower Hell and Lower Heaven Energy.

This means that the moment Hachiman touched the cards he received all of the skills along with how to use them, but just like Kazuma, he needs to train to properly use them.

 

[blueayes]

"Kazuma."

"Yeah."

"Why are we here?" Hachiman asks Kazuma as they look at a young man with short red hair who is running on the track field.

Kazuma just smiles. "My friend I have already seen this play once remember and if you and I met then that just means something bad is going to happen."

'And we are going to need a party and he is our last member" Kazuma answers him.

"So how are we going to?" Hachiman began to ask Kazuma but Kazuma didn't allow him to finish his question.

"Shiroe! Come here a second." Kazuma calls to Shiroe who stops running and starts to walk towards them.

"Hey, what's up?" Shiroe asks them.

"We have another one." Kazuma says to Shiro as he uses his thumb to point at Hachiman.

"Explain to me what's going on first." Shiroe says to Kazuma as he looks at Hachiman.

Kazuma begins to tell Shiroe what happened the night before and that he gave Hachiman some power so that he could defend himself, Hachiman watched as Shiroes looks at him with a worried smile.

"Well, I guess, you're one of us now." Shiroe says to Hachiman as a sword appears in his hand.

Hachiman begins to look around but just like a moment ago when Shiroe was training by himself the track fields were empty with no one else except the three of them.

"Okay, let's get started." Shiroe says as he takes a combat stance.

"What ?' Hachiman asks as Kazuma walks past him and lifts his hands and looks as if he is ready to fight Shiroe with his bare hands.

"You learn by doing, so take those cards out and use them to save yourself." Kazuma says to him and Hachma takes out the stack of cards.

"One." Kazuma says.

"Two." Shiroe continues, they both lookt Hachiman who against his better judgment says.

"Three."

Shiroe appears in front of Hachiman, his leg is inches away from hitting Hachiman when he is forced to move back because ice spikes flew towards him.

"Thanks." Hachiman says to Kazuma who walks up to him, but the look in his eyes fills Hachiman with fear.

"It's a trial by fire, so don't thank me." Kazuma says to him as his hand begins to go glow before a bright flash of light blinds Hachiman.

'What are you going to do, you're blind so you can't read your cards?" Kazuma asks Hachiman.

Hachiman can feel his heart beating inside his chest, the sound of metal hitting metal as well as hot and cold wind flying past him lets him know that both Kazuma and Shiroe are still fighting.

He feels one of them punch him, when he is on the ground he finds himself unable to scream in pain when one of them stomps him.

Hachima tries to see but he has already dropped the cards and he doesn't know what the rest of them can do, he can hear them fighting, if only he could see, if only he could move if only he could.

"Doge" Hachiman feels his body surge with power and he is somehow able to throw himself away he soon hears the ground next to him break as if something heavy landed on it.

He feels the hot and cold air of something trying to hit him but is unable to.

the sounds of Shiroe and Kazuma clapping reach his ears and the light that had been blinding him a second ago vanishes and he can see again.

'Sorry for hurting you." Kazuma says to him, but Hachiman just punches him in the face.

'Relax, you needed to know how to activate your powers, now that you did it once you can do it again." Shiroe says to him, while he has his hands raised, showing Hachiman that he isn't a threat.

"So what now?" Hachiman asks his two seniors.

"Now we celebrate because like it or not we are a team now." Shiroe answers him as the sword in his hand shatters into dust.

 

[blueayes]

Mai sent the video to the higher-ups, this wasn't normal, or better said this wasn't good she had arrived at the school just as the three sorcerers had started training.

It was obvious to anyone that the three of them stood in different places.

She stopped herself from calling them Sorcerers, whatever they were they didn't use Curse Energy because she couldn't sense any of it, not to mention that she could see them using their abilities with her bare eyes.

The three men were just sitting on the ground talking as if they didn't have a care in the world, she couldn't help but envy them, men usually had it easier in this life even if they didn't have curse energy, they were always more valuable than women were.

Her eyes felt as if they were burned as she watched the man with short red hair fill the track field with swords, she watched as the swords shattered into dust leaving no trace that they had ever been there.

She tried to hear what he was saying but because she was too far away she was forced to use her cellphone to record him so that someone that could read his lips could translate what he was saying.

The sky around her began to change and she found herself in a world where gears spun in the sky, the smell of rust and blood filled the air and she was surrounded by an endless field of swords.

The world around her shattered and returned to normal, she could only watch as the red-haired man graved the one that looked as if he had dead eyes and laughed as the man stared at him in shock.

She watched as the one with short brown hair, summoned a spear of lightning into his hands, and seemed to vanish despite never having moved from his spot.

Her eyes widened as several rune-covered circles made of light covered the area around them.

The world stood still as all sound vanished, and the sky lost all color except the empty ness of the back void that seemed to extend forever.

The shadows of four figures stood before the three men and then the world returned to normal.

The last one the one with the dead eyes drew a card and stood up, h yelled something that she couldn't hear, but nothing happened.

The other two men laughed and stood up before patting him on the back and trying to encourage him.

She felt a small sense of comfort knowing that the last of them didn't have any control over his abilities yet, so maybe there was a chance that things didn't go bad.

The sound of her cell phone beeping made her look down and she saw a number that she had never seen before she opened it and found her family's emblem along with a single order.

'Bring them." her father had seen the videos and wanted her to bring the group to him.

She swallowed and began to wonder how she was going to convince the three strangers to come with her, she was forced to abandon her thought when a Curse Spirit landed in front of the three men, but before she could do or say anything both the brown-haired man and the red-haired man killed it.

the one between them didn't have time to react, but that was probably because of his lack of experience.

Again she sent the video to the higher-ups before she turned off her phone and walked to a nearby tree before sitting down and looking at the world in front of her quietly.

"Come here" Hime heard her husband order her, she was about to tell Maki to say where she was when her husband ordered the girl inside.

This worried both of them Ogi didn't think highly of her and considered both Mai and Maki to be lower than dirt, so it was never anything good when he called for the girl's presence.

As they entered the room they found themselves looking at a screen showing three sorcerers whose skills varied largely, it was obvious that two o the men were experienced with their cursed energy while the last one was a complete amateur.

Hime turns and looks at her husband who has a grin that doesn't have any malice in it, but if she had to compare it to something it would be that of a beast who found its prey.

"I'm sorry I don't understand." Maki says to her father, just as the pictures of the three young men appear on the screen.

Hime can't help but worry that Ogi will hurt her daughter, but she is surprised to see that he doesn't do anything to her.

Ogi turns his head up and looks at the ceiling and smirks, Hime can tell that the man is choosing his words carefully, and then Ogi turns to look at Maki.

"If I wasn't me, and didn't know you I would say that you are attractive."

"It wouldn't kill you to wear makeup and use clothes that are more pleasing to see." Ogi says to her and Hime can feel her chest swelling with fear, she knows what Ogi is saying to Maki.

"I sent Mai on a mission to find an old friend of yours, after all, both of you are at the age where you should have already had two or more children."

The picture of a young man with short brown hair and a look that screams that he didn't have a care in the world grows larger than the other two.

"He is a failure in life, something happened to him and he shut himself in his room and when he came out he transferred to a public school." Ogi says to Maki.

"I sent Mai so she didn't stain this place and so she could live with him and to my surprise she found that he wasn't a complete failure like you." Ogi says to their daughter before the two other pictures grow and are now the same size as Kazumas picture.

"Choose, which of these men will be impregnating you." Ogi says to Maki before he walks past her and leaves her in the room alone.

"I want you to contact their families and offer them a chance for their sons to enter one of the two schools, I don't care which just get them somewhere, where we can watch them. " Ogi says to her.

Hime doesn't say anything and just looks at the screens in front of her, as the door behind her closes she sees the last video that Mai sent to her father, it's of the three young me, they are all smiling and look like they're genuinely happy.

The screen goes black and Maki turns around before walking out of the room without a word, there's no doubt in Hime's mind that Maki will do everything in her power to disobey her father's orders.

Hime stands quietly and listens to the sound of Maki's footsteps echo, she hears the door open followed by Maki's footsteps, and then the door closes firmly behind Maki.

It's only when she is completely alone that Hime turns the screen back on and looks at the three faces of the men whose lives her family is about to ruin.

"What are you planning?" she thinks to herself as she replays all of the videos that Mai sent Ogi and her eyes widen as she realizes what's in front of her.

"They're real." she says the words out loud, and despite her voice being barely above a whisper, they still carry the full weight of her emotions.

[ The last day of your normal life End ]

[blueayes]

Chapter, 1
The sounds of doorbells ringing and someone knocking on their doors alerted both Kazuma and Shiroe that something was wrong.

Kazuma who had made sure that Hachiman returned home safely made sure to put a barrier and something similar to an alarm on Hachiman's house, and it was that same alarm that told him that there were people with abilities at each of their hoses.

"It's started." Kazuma says to his two friends who look at him with confused expressions.

"Kazuma!" Shiroe and Hachiman turn and find a young woman with short green hair standing on the other side of the fence.

Shiroe closes his eyes and smiles, he doesn't hate this outcome, he just wishes that they had more time to train Hachiman before anything happened.

"Hachiman." Shiroe says o Hachiman.

"Yeah." Shiro stops talking for a moment and tries to think of his words carefully.

"A lot of things are going to happen, and you might end up finding things out about people in your family," Shiroe says to Hachiman as they watch Kazuma walk towards the fence.

"Kazuma and I will be right there with you, but you are going to have to trust us."

"Why are you telling me this?"

"Because it's started." Shiroe says to Hachiman as he pulls his shirt down and shows Hachiman the glowing veins that cover his chest.

"Pass!" Kazuma answers loudly as the woman in front of him looks at him in shock.

'Forget it, I mean it's nice that you're telling me this but I haven't seen you and years and now you are telling me that your old man wants to see me."

"The answer is no." Kazuma says to Mai who nods, but before she can say anything, everyone's cellphones begin to ring, as they each receive a call from their parents.

[ 1 Welcome to your New World ]

The sounds of someone loudly typing on an antique typewriter echo through the room as three people looked out the window toward the three new students that were being led into the school

"Sato Kazuma, the guy is a loser if I've ever seen one."

'He was a shut-in until a year a when he finally decided to leave his room, he spent so long skipping school that he had to repeat Highschool."

"Shiroe Emiya, believe it or not, but his dad specializes in hunting Curse users, and his mom is a skilled Shikigami user, so he's probably the one they found Kazuma."

"And the last one is Hachiman Hikigaya, wait Komachi isn't that your brother's name?"

The two of them waited for Komachi to answer but she never did she just continued to look out the window with a worried expression.

"It's started." the only male member of their three-man team says as they watch several elder students and a few teachers surround the three transfer students.

None of them said anything, this was just how things were done, the strong ruled over the weak, and anyone that fall into this world would have to learn fast or they wouldn't survive.

Komachi wanted to run to her brother's side, she wanted to call a teacher for help, hell she wanted to enter the fight and teach the bullies a lesson but she knew that she couldn't, because she wasn't anywhere near as strong as them.

So she did the only thing she could and watched, she wore to herself that she wouldn't close her eyes, and that no matter what happened she would be there to help Hachiman however she could.

And so she watched and she felt herself gasping in amazement.

"Not like that man, you're too stiff!" Kazuma says to Hachiman as he evades and dodges both the students and the teacher's attacks.

"Hey, Kazuma! I think I know what he's doing wrong."

"He's thinking too much, just let go and let your instincts take over." Shiroe says to Hachiman as he easily avoids the weapons that are being used against him.

Hachiman barely avoids being punked and kicked by somehow throwing himself into the air, but he left himself exposed to an attack from someone that could jump higher than him while at the same time, he wasn't able to avoid being hit by someone that was using a weapon underneath him.

The situation became worse when that exact thing happened and he found himself trying to do anything so that he wasn't hit.

He closed his eyes and expected to feel the surge of pain, but it never came and when he opened his eyes he found that he was already on the ground.

As he looked around, he found that all of the women in the group were tied in an erotic manner that made Hachiman wonder about the personality of the one responsible for tying them up.

The men in the group however all had their hands between their legs and were glaring at him and his.... he wanted to say friends but he didn't know what Shiroe and Kazuma were to him yet.

The sound of a page being turned and Komachi hears her partner begin to talk.

"Shiroe seems to be able to create Curse tools but they dont last very long as they break and become dust whenever he uses them"

"He also has a domain expansion that smells like rust, ash, and blood, those that have seen it, compare it to an endless field of swords."

"Kazuma has already unlocked his Domain Expansion, and it's an empty void that feels as if someone or something is about to judge every sin and moral act that you have ever done, oh and there are four shadows but that's all I know."

"As for Hachiman, he has a stack of Flashcards that he hasnt mastered yet."

"So what do you want to do Komachi, do you want to go say hi to him, or do you want him to find out that you're here later." her partner asks her.

 

[blueayes]

Komachi didn't know what to say, after all, how was she going to explain to her brother that she had been a part of this world since she entered middle school?

'Relax, I mean your brother is already a part of this, just look at the guys that are with him, they're acting as if all of this is normal to them." she heard her other teammate say to her, but his words dint bring any comfort.

'So that's her brother." Komachi feels herself become filled with dread, the moment she hears the second year's voice, and she can only swallow as dread takes over all of her senses.

She doesn't move, she knows better than to make him mad, from the corner of her eyes she can see her friends who are equally frozen with fear, struggling not to blink.

'You kids act as if you've seen a ghost, I just came here to tell everyone the good news." .he says to them and Komachi can only hear the sound of his footsteps growing louder as he walks closer to her.

"Guess who the teachers asked to test those three." he says to them and Komachi quickly turns in the direction that her senior's voice is coming from only to find him looking at her with a sadistic smile.

Her senior slowly moves closer to her until he can whisper something that makes Komachi fall to her knees and be taken over by despair.

Her brother is going to be tested inside the pit.

The pit is a large area that has been cut off from the rest of the world because of something that took the area over, no one except the teachers and the higher-ups knows what it is only that the only thing they could do was keep the creature contained for the time being.

Over the years the pit has become home to all sorts of curse spirits and as a result, it's a place where everyone goes for training.

Its also used s punishment by both the teachers and those who are stronger than others, who use their position to make examples of those that dare to defy them.

Komachi can only watch as her senior and his team leave her classroom and it's only when she is certain that he is gone that she runs toward the entrance of the school.

"So why are we doing this again," Kazuma asks the teacher who is guiding him to the pit.

"We need to know where you boys stand." the teacher answers him, with the practiced smile that he use on her and everyone else when they first came to this school.

"Why do we need to know that, I mean after we're done with this school we are all going back to our old lives." Shiroe says to the man who immediately frowns.

"Maybe that's your plan, but you boys need to see why we do things the way that we do them and we also need to know what your capable of, in case we need your help one day." the teacher answers Shiroe.

Komachi can finally see her brother who notices her and looks at her wide eyes the shock of seeing her here is clear to anyone that sees him.

"Hachi don't go in there!" she screams to her brother but the teacher's eyes force her to stop moving.

"Komachi are you going against your superiors?" the teacher says to her and Komachi finds herself unable to say anything, but her eyes soon widen with shock, fear, and confusion when a sword appears underneath the teacher's neck.

"Explain." Shiroe demands and the teacher smirks at his threat.

"This place is a place where Shamans or Sorcerors train, if you kill me there isn't a way that any of you will escape.

"Yeah about that." Kazuma says as the doors to the school open and a man with short black hair, wearing a black suit and a black trenchcoat walks in.

Next to him are a pair of women with long white hair and blood-red eyes their dresses are pure white which makes many who see them wonder if they are even humans.

The three strangers are smiling at the teacher even while they stand behind Hachiman and hand the teacher a large stack of papers.

"What's this?" the teacher asks them.

"Yaeh Shiroe called his dad when these guys showed up at his house and told his mom that he was invited to this school and that he would be bringing us." Kazuma says to Hachiman who hasn't been able to move because of how confused he is.

"I have spoken to the higher-ups and because Sato Kazuma, and Hachiman Hikigaya, both are under my sons training they are recognized as members of the Emiya house along with any relatives that they may have." Kiritsugu answers the teacher who begins to sweat.

'I guess I will prepare another testing ground." the teacher says to Kiritsugu but he stops moving when Irisviel stops him.

'No you won't, as you know we prefer to stay away from all of you and so we only deal with the troublemakers, but you chose to bring our son by force and so we will see what you had planned for him and his friends." Irisviel says to the teacher who feels something tightening around his neck.

Hachiman wants to say something but he can't because the words aren't coming out.

"Don't worry about your sister, we will make sure that they don't do anything, but you should get ready because whatever they're planning isn't good." Illyasviel says to Hachiman as she walks toward Komachi who hasn't been able to move.

Komachi for her part is struggling not to faint, the Emiya family is known as a family of killers, people that travel the world killing Curse users and her brother just became one of them.

"'So you are my new cousin." Illyasviel says to her with a warm smile on her face.

"Please save him." Komachi whispers to Illyasviel who in turn looks at her with a confused expression before she begins to giggle.

'Dont worry about your brother, both my little brother and Kazuma went in there with him, and from what Shiroe told me, your brother has something special up his sleeve." Illyasviel says to her before she grabs her hand and leads her to the viewing room.

The three of them find themselves inside what looks like a large forest but it's dark despite the sun being bright a moment earlier.

'So how should we do this?"

"Do we split up and let them come to us? do we stick together or do we just use our finishers and anger whatever is in here while we kill everything trapped in here?" Kazuma asks Shiroe and Hachiman.

"Normally I would say let's stick together and do this carefully, but considering that Hachiman just found out his sisters here and by the way she was acting bad things happen in this place."

"I say we go all out." Shiroe answers Kazuma before he begins to chant and activates his Reality Marble.

The sky begins to turn a bright blue while the gears in the sky move alongside the white clouds, the ground begins to fade and becomes replaced by rust and dirt, and the smell of ash, blood, and rust covers the area as an endless field of swords can be seen as far as the eye can see.

Yet the changes to the world don't end.

The blue sky begins to be taken over by an endless void and the black and white tile floor spreads beneath the ash, dirt, and rust that cover the ground.

The entire testing ground has completely changed and soon rain begins to fall.

Both Shiroe and Kazuma turn to look at Hachiman and wait for him to summon something.

Hachiman takes out a card and tries to make it work but matter how hard he tries he can't ake the card do anything.

 

[blueayes]

The observation room fell completely silent as both Kazuman and Shiroe activated their Domains, but this was all wrong Domains couldn't exist with each other no matter the situation, one would always break under the one that was more polished and more understood by the user.

"Reality Marble, I won't bother with the details, but to make a long story short even normal Humans can see and touch everything that Shiroe creates."

"Oh, and in case you're wondering every one of those swords can give the user special abilities, depending on the sword." Illyasviel says to Komachi who has her eyes glued to the screen.

"As for Kazuma, he uses something called the Halls of Judgement."

"I imagine that Curse Energy or negative energy can be collected and stored, then that would mean that the same can be done with Blessed Energy or positive energy."

"To make it simple, what your seeing isn't rain, but Blessed Energy, that Kazuma is using to suppress the Curse Energy that's taken over the training ground." Kiritsugu explains to Komachi who suddenly realizes something.

"Waite but that place is filled with Curse Energy." Komachi says to Kiritsugu.

"Which is why they're going o have to do whatever they were sent to do before the room floods." Kiritsugu answers Komachi even as he draws his gun and points it at the teacher, but he isn't alone both his wife and daughter have their shikigami waiting for someone to make the wrong move.

"Tell me is this really a test or did the higher-ups just want to get rid of those three before they could become a problem?" Kiritsugu asks the teachers who glare at him.

"It's a test, believe it or not, but we send all of our students to train in that place, and yes the Higher-ups want those unknowns dealt with before they can become an issue." one of the teachers answers Kiritsugu, who lowers his gun.

Everyone's eyes turn as both Irisviel and Illyasviel begin to giggle while they make their shikigami vanish.

"What's so funny?" Komachi asks them.

"Well I can't say anything about your brother, but to stop those two you're going to have to kill them, seal them away, and pray that in the time that it took you to do both of those things, they didn't come up with a way of undoing everything you did." Illyasviel answers Komachi.

The haunting sound of distorted Human voices can be heard as the rain ate away at their bodies, the three of them walked deeper and deeper into the forest.

They had already seen the bodies of weak curses melting on the ground and on the trees, hell some other trees were even melting, meaning that this place was nothing more than one big death trap.

As they walked deeper into the darkness of the forest Hachiman began to notice a pattern forming. both Kazuma and Shiroe would avoid entering dark areas where there wasn't any rain or were simply too dark to see in.

When they arrived somewhere that didn't have any light and they couldn't avoid, Shiroe would bombard it with swords that would fly on their own and explode soon after.

Kazuma would later create several orbs of light and send them into the area and then they would be on their way again.

Surprisingly their actions somehow made the rain spread into the area that they opened and somehow Hachiman knew that as long as he was underneath the rain he would be safe.

He knew this because he could feel the eyes of something following him and his group, but it wasn't alone, and the deeper he went into the forest the more he felt the eyes of several things glaring at him.

"This seems like a good spot." Shiroe says as they enter a clearing that was surrounded by the forest, but had no trees near it, just a large patch of well-maintained grass.

It took him a moment but Hachiman noticed that the sound of the rain had stopped and Kazuma now had his hands wide open as if he was stretching.

"Hachiman get over here." Kazuma says to him as Shiroe grabs Kazumas left hand and puts it on his shoulder.

Hachiman can't help but do the same with Kazuma's right hand.

The sound of water moving through the ground as it drags the dead branches, leaves and dying curse with it reaches Hachimans eyes.

"Don't move." Kazuma orders him and Hachiman can't help but do as he is told.

The feeling of something flooding his senses begins to take over and Hachiman has to restrain himself from breaking down and laughing madly, there was only one word that could describe the feeling.

'Power." for the first time in his life Hachiman felt powerful, he couldn't describe the feeling but if he had to, he would have to say, that if he wanted to he could go out and conquer a small country with hardly any effort.

"Calm down, we aren't in a place where we can afford to lose ourselves," Shiroe says to him as a pair of swords appear in his hands.

Hachiman can only turn and look at what Shiroe is looking at before he sees someone that is barely above his sister's age walking out of the darkness, but he isn't alone with him are four other people, and each of them has an air to them.

If Hachiman had to describe the way that they all looked, it was as if the strangers were all looking at trash when they looked at the three of them.
[ One Hour Later ]

The school was silent, no one knew what to say or how to react to what they had seen, one thing was clear to them.

They now knew why the Emiya family is feared despite them being a small and new group amongst the sorcerers.

Kamachi waited for her brother to leave the nurse's office so that she could talk to him, he and his friends needed to be measured for their uniforms.

Too many things had happened at the same time for her to understand her new position, but seeing as how her team was now keeping a distance from her, and the three older people that were with her.

She slowly began to understand that something had changed about her without her knowing it.

The door to the nurse's room opens and Komachi can't help but smile as she sees her brother step out, but she freezes in place as the memory of what he summoned quickly enters her mind.

She knows the rules and so she knows that she can't just speak to someone stronger than her without that person speaking to her first or granting her permission to talk to him whenever she wants to.

"What's wrong?" Hachiman asks her hi confusion and worry are clear in both his voice and expression.

"The world that you just entered, works differently from everyday society. It looks like your sister has already learned the rules in it, so try to understand her." Illyasviel says to Hachiman, as she walks towards Komachi and pats her head.

"He is still your older brother, someone who you never had to worry about when you talked to him, not now, not then, not ever." Illyasviel says to Komachi who begins to cry and runs to Hachiman before he hugs him tightly.

 

[blueayes]

][][][]][ After careful observation of the events that occurred within the testing\ Punishment room, Subjects; Kazuma Sato, Shiroe Emiya, and Hachiman Hikigaya are to be kept under close watch and executed should they show signs of becoming greater threats. ]][][]][]

"Shiroe, Kazuma, we are expecting the two of you to behave." Irisviel says o Her brother's friends but Komachi didn't bother to pull herself away from her brother

"We're serious, we don't want to start a war with the people here."

"And Hachiman, I mean it, we would go bankrupt if we have to pay someone to clean up the mess we make." Kiritsugu says o Hachiman and Komachi is forced to pull herself away and turn to look at the Emiya family who put her brother under their protection.

She can't help but let out a breath both women could easily be compared to dolls, who walked with an inhuman grace, and while their bodies weren't filled out like the ones that she saw on TV they somehow looked perfect.

Komachi suddenly felt the weight that she had forgotten since she first laid eyes on her brother, but she was now reminded of what was expected of her.

She was a sorcerer, and she expected to be dangerous while her appearance was expected to be breathtaking for any none sorcerer who looked at her.

She burned the memory of the two women in white and the man that was dressed in black into her mind as her attention returned to Hachiman.

"Here." one of the teachers says to him as he hands her brother his student Identification.

"Would you look at that you're the same as us." Kazuma says to her brother as both he and Shiroe start to congratulate one another but Komachi can't help but feel her heartache because of what is written on the cards that they are all holding.

Grade 4 is the lowest of the low, grade four is barely above a regular person and that means that everyone will be coming for them, despite what anyone saw in the training room, everyone will be targeting them.

She tries to say something but the teachers in the room smirk before one of them places a finger over her lips and tells her to be quiet, she can see the sadistic look in their eyes they know what's coming and they are more than happy to see it when it happens.

"Why don't you show your brother and his friends to their class." One of the teachers says to her and Komachi can't help but lower her head and obey.

As they exit the room Komachi can feel the glares and threatening smirks of the teachers and students, she can feel the temperature drop as she walks its so cruel that it feels real.

She can see ice spreading thigh the hallway, this feeling is real, she turns and finds Kazuma who has his hand on the wall, and on his face is a serious expression.

"Man can you believe these idiots, I mean we may not have a lot of whatever their power is, but we still have powers." Kazuma says to everyone as he removes his hand from the wall and quickly catches up to them.

Komachi can only stare at the walls of ice that have sealed the classrooms and the other rooms of the building.

"Okay, Miss Hikigaya the headaches are gone can you please lead the way for us." Shiroe says to her but Komachi can't help but point to the room in front of them and unfortunately, it's frozen just like the others.

"I got it." Shiroe says as he materializes a sword that has fire covering the blade, Komachi watches as Shiroe points the sword at the door, but nothing happens, and yet the ice that was covering the door melts away.

'Good your here." her teacher says to them as they enter the room.

"Why don't you boys introduce yourselves and we can get started." she says to them.

"Hey Im Hachiman, I just want to get this over with and live a normal life." Her brother says to everyone in the room.

"YO, Im Kazuma, and I'm looking forward to coming home to three or four beautiful women who I can count on." Kazuma says to the people in the room, but the faces of his party flash before his eyes when he introduced himself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Shiroe and I just want to enjoy my life while I still have it." Shiroe says to the class, but he doesn't pay attention that there are only five other people in the room.
