Chapter 1: Red Carnations ——————————————————
A boy with pinkish blonde hair and red eyes walked out of a limo. He wore black skinny jeans, a white dress shirt, black suspenders and a red tie along with black dress shoes, he also wore 3 black bracelets on his left arm.
”Ares academy...What kind of person names a school after a god of war?! Are they trying to imply something?" The boy muttered walking through the courtyard to the main building. He walked inside and entered the room that said main office.
There was only a secretary a couple of FANCY chairs and a Table with a FANCY tea set, the secretary even looked FANCY.
‘yeah, I definitely don’t belong here..’ Rui thinks to himself, getting anxious.
"U-Um I'm Tsukimiya Rui, I'm a transfer student from Japan." The boy said walking up to the secretary.
"Ah very well, you're already in uniform so that's good. Hmm? Crystal Class? how rare. Especially when you're only in your last year of middle school." The secretary said looking up at Rui once again.
Rui looked at her with a confused look, not really understanding what she meant by 'Crystal Class'.
She passed him a Red bracelet made of Red thread that was braided tightly.
"The principal personally had this made for you, It’s all one string, it’s called a sailor's bracelet, It’s nearly impossible to break, you’re not even supposed to be able to take it off." The secretary explained.
“But your wrists are small so I think you could take it off.”
Rui looked at the bracelet wondering why the Chairman would even have something made for him.
"A student from your class will come get you." The secretary said snapping Rui out of his thoughts.
Rui sat down and waited only for the door to open almost the very second he sat down.
"You're the new kid, right?" A boy with grayish blue hair asked.
The boy had an emotionless face and piercing silver eyes.
"Y-Yes, I’m Tsukimiya Rui." Rui stuttered.
"I'm J, a student in your class, I'll explain everything to you." The boy said walking out of the main office.
Rui ran to catch up.
J wore the school uniform except his suspenders were hanging down the sides of his waist, he was wearing sneakers, And his tie was black with a silver crown pin on it. His ears were also pierced, 3 on one ear, and 2 on the other.
"This school goes from middle school to College but for Crystal class students the morning classes are full of different grades. I'm 17, in my second year of high school." J explained walking up the stairs.
"U-Um what is Crystal Class?" Rui asked when he finally managed to catch up with J on the stairs.
"You don't know about Crystal class? Are you an idiot?" J said making Rui sweat drop.
" It’s the class for those with Abnormalities. Abnormalities are strange Powers and abilities. If you're part of the Crystal class you should have a battle-based abnormality or an abnormality in general." J said looking at Rui as if he was a rare species for not knowing about this.
" Eh? I don't have anything like that..The closest thing I have to an abnormality are my eyes which make people automatically not want to be near me, Useful right?" Rui muttered while smiling bitterly.
J hummed and walked towards a door.
All of the people in the class turned to the door as it opened. J sat down at his Chair and Rui just stood there sweating under the Class' gaze.
"This is Tsukimiya Rui, our new transfer student, please make him feel welcome." The teacher said before pointing at a seat for Rui to sit in.
Rui sat down hoping to not be stared at. He didn't understand what the teachers were saying during the classes that were abnormality related so he just looked through the window to distract himself .
At lunch Rui sat at the garden alone, having not made any friends since most of his classmates weren't exactly friendly, but things like that weren’t new to him. No matter how beautiful his eyes were people would always think he was a demon. It didn’t bother him though, He’d much rather be alone and enjoy the silence.
A girl with green hair and yellow eyes walked to Rui, She was dragging J around like a rag doll.
"Hey New kid! Do you know who I am?" The girl asked very obnoxiously.
‘How in the world does she think i would know her name? I literally have no friends.’ Rui thought to himself.
"Why do I have to be here?" J asked with an annoyed look before Rui could answer.
The girl ignored him and waited from an answer from Rui.
"I-I don't .." Rui stuttered becoming very uncomfortable.
The girl huffed and pulled on Rui's collar obviously angry at His answer.
"I'm Celosa Nina, I'm J's girlfriend." The girl said as if it was some kind of huge accomplishment that no one could beat.
"So?" Rui deadpanned making everyone except for J gasp.
"Tch you've gotten too close to him so I'll have to do something about it. I challenge you to a fight." Nina said whipping her hair.
'What?! That's so stupid! I talked to him for like 5 minutes!! How clingy are you?!' Rui yelled in his head.
“So this is why I’m here...How bothersome.” J muttered, playing a game on his phone.
"Instead of your next class, go to the arena. I'll make sure to destroy you." Nina said dragging J away.
"Huh?!But I d-didn’t do anything!!" Rui exclaimed.
'I'll definitely lose! I’m the least athletic person ever. I’ve lost every card or board game I’ve ever played and my knowledge of random things won’t do me any good since this girl is an idiot and obviously wouldn’t do an intelligence battle!' Rui ranted in his mind.
———
Rui and Nina were at the arena watching as the plain arena turned into a jungle, with trees and cliffs everywhere.
A referee walked into the Arena.
"Each person will use a weapon card, they must fight until, 1, the opponent's card is shattered, 2, the opponent's card is 45 meters away from the opponent, or 3, the opponent cannot continue. Rui will be using a randomly chosen card that he will get to keep no matter the outcome of this battle. After the winner is announced there is no take backs." The referee explained before walking out of the arena.
A lot of people had shown up to watch. Apparently watching a poor new student get beaten up is quality entertainment.
J sat on an actual throne with 2 other people at his side, he was treated like royalty.
"No matter the strength of the card, fighting with a card that you've never seen, or used before is suicide. Nina will win." A ravenette boy next to J muttered.
"We'll see." J muttered looking closely at the arena floor where Rui and Nina were.
A screen appeared on the sides of the arena letting people watch the match from within the seats around the arena, it was also broadcasted through the school’s website.
"Start!" The referee yelled from outside of the arena.
Once the referee yelled, Nina used her card, Lancer, and started throwing multiple lances at Rui, who dodged out of fear.
She then threw many of them at Rui at the same time making sure that Rui couldn't escape.
'I can't do this!!! I'll die! I'll definitely die!' Rui mentally cried.
Rui's usually bright and lively eyes suddenly became empty.
Once the lances hit something, Nina frowned. It wasn't a body, it was the ground.
"Running away already? Such a coward. " Nina said running towards the only area Rui could have escaped.
Rui appeared on top of a cliff, looking down at the jungle below him.
"Archer." Rui said looking at the card he held in his hand as it transformed. A Jet black bow appeared in his hands instead of a card. Rui stretched the bow watching as a bright green dot moved around the jungle below him. His eyes turned a brighter red as he looked at it.
Rui muttered something as red dots appeared in the air around him and formed the shape of an arrow. The shape quickly became a defined, reddish pink arrow. Rui let go of the bow string and the arrow turned into many arrows that went to the areas around Nina as one arrow went directly towards her.
The arrow then pierced through her lancer card destroying it.
"T-The w-winner is T-Tsukimiya R-Rui!" The referee stuttered .
The arena was silent before Cheering loudly at the sudden change of pace.
Rui then fell unconscious but before he could fall off the cliff to his doom he was caught by J.
" How interesting." J muttered carrying the smaller boy. The arena returned to it’s normal empty form instead of a jungle.
"Nina." J called.
Nina looked up, hopeful that she would be given another chance.
" Return your card deck , you're not a Knight anymore." J said snapping his fingers.
The card deck that was in Nina's skirt pocket, flew out and landed in J's Palm.
"B-But J!" Nina yelled out.
"Geez shut up already, you're so annoying." J said walking out of the arena with Rui in his arms.
On his way out he looked at the secretary who was watching him.
"He's my roommate now, hope you don't mind Ms. Principal." He said walking away.
" I don't have a choice do I?" The principal / secretary asks only to receive no answer.
