Terror Infinity Side B

Chapter 2 - 1, Real World I

Real World Day 1/30 -

Shin's Room.

Shin's room was filled with everything that he remembered and looked to be hardly been touched in his absence. His old book shelf was still filled with Light Novels, Anime Blue Ray cases, and Mangas. Video games were scattered over the floor, his favorite protagonist and heroine figurines on desk by the computer along with a Gumpla model. The posters of his favorite protagonist from anime and mangas alike were hanging on the wall and ceiling by his bed.

Shin: This is definitely my old room. In all of Japan there could only be 100 otaku filled goods of this quality. Who else has an RX-78-2 Limited Edition Gumpla personally signed by both Yoshiyuki Tomino and Toru Furuya? Not many since I had to go to the end of the earth to get this.

Shin never made an exact model of his room back in the Terminal Lobby.

He loved all the things in his own personal space, but when he first tried to, he stopped himself because it all reminded him of the real world. The room was also the symbol that he was only an otaku who admires, yet could not could become a protagonist himself.

Shin: Maybe I should just take 1 or 2 things back with me as keep sakes. Especially my Lala hug pillow who I had my first kiss with. I hope Aqua and Hiakri won't be jealous... Or freak out over. Is this what they call a love affair?

It was then as he was only now just considering just making her himself ( She could also invent things for us, though it'll go out of control immediately after she does build something ), the door to his room opened. This household only had four living residents, so with Shin on the other side it could only either be his uncle, aunt or her.

Chika: ...Onii-chan

Shin: ...Chika.

Safe to say it wasn't his actual sister. Shin's real sister died in the car accident along with his two parents. The one calling him onii-chan was his distant cousin and child of the uncle and aunt looking over him, Chika.

Chika, who hasn't seen Shin in weeks froze on the spot... And to Shin's surprise she began to shead tears and ran up to and hugged him. He never expected such a strong reaction from her, and neither was he happy and turned off by the surprise gesture of his cousin.

Shin: Chika? What's wrong?

Chika: What do you mean what is wrong!? I, I haven't seen you in such a long time. Last time my parents or I saw you, you were up in your room after returning to school. We thought that you sneaked out later and was either abducted or... Whatever the case I am happy to see you.

Shin: Me to Chika... Me to.

While trying to calm her down Shin imagined that the thing that she was about to say, but stopped herself was that he had runaway. It was no big secret that Shin felt like he was a stranger in his relatives house. For Shin, his family that died in the car accident was his only family. Chika and her parents were just distant relatives to Shin, with an emphasis on the word distant. They made attempts to get Shin to open up, but he always kept to himself and stayed in his room filled with otaku goods and just stared at the computer.

Shin: ( Also, I never really did like Chika that much. Her presence... Is bothersome though I never said so to her face before ).

Shin recalled what he knew of Chika.

Chika, 16 years of age and the only child of Shin's uncle and aunt.

A perfect straight A+ student who excelled at everything and anything she did, whether she put in the effort or not. Chika had friends parents, admires, was beauty and great at anything that she tried. In other words, the perfect scientific example of a riajuu. The very opposite of Shin who is an otaku and was never great at anything that he tried.

Shin also knew that other then his inferiority complex, he had another few reason for not liking Chika. Chika not only had no interest in his own hobbies, she kept pestering him to throw them away all the time. Shin is honestly surprised that she hadn't taken the chance with his absence to throw away all of his otaku goods in his room ( Thank God, not that one, but a real and good one that she hasn't ).

The other reason that Shin didn't like Chika was because of one word, 'Onii-chan'. Unlike Shin who makes no effort to approach or like Chika, she trys to get closer to him and call Shin onii-chan. Shin was originally the younger brother to his deceased sister, but when Saki makes such attempts to say that she is her brother and reverse, that Chika is his sister... Shin can at times barley hold himself back from telling her off and to never call him that again.

Shin hadn't done so to date since it would be wrong to hurt her feelings and make things more awkward around the house, but before he was taken to God's Dimension he felt he was getting closer and closer to saying those words. Still, Shin didn't hate Chika, but he didn't love or like her that much.

To Chika, Shin was like an older brother since they grew up together in the same after the accident, yet Shin saw her as nothing more then an annoying cousin and despite being beauty her own right and nothing close to legally being wrong with looking at her as a women, I've never felt attracted to Chika... Even though this is the goddam setting of 1/3 of of Mangas and Anime.

Chika: Where have you been? You left your cell phone at home and we couldn't find any trace of you even after the police got involved. Also... What is with your appearance? Did you leave home without telling anyone to only to go to one of those cosplay events? You also look much more handsome than ever before. Are you wearing makeup?

Shin: My appearance? Also, of course I am not wearing any makeup! Just what are you... Ahh!

Shin had completely forgotten how he looked like now and what he was dressed in.

After his his initial enhancements Shin had become more muscular and better looking, but it didn't end just there. He forgets if he isn't in front of a mirror, but after unlocking his Genetic Constraint in combination of his ghoul mutation his appearance changed even more.

Like Ken Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul, after going through a traumatic event like unlocking his constraints and coming inches to death's door, Shin hair color changed to that of pure snow white. According to bit Hikari and Aqua he now has sad, yet cool loner look ( Which is a compliment ).

Also, what Chika noticed were the clothes Shin was currently wearing.

Shin was still wearing his Lesser Fenrir Coat as if he was going on a mission instead of going to the real world as he forgets to take it off since he like it so much. In middle school, Chika remembered that Shin once dressed up as some black clothed swordsman ( Kirito ) for an event, so that was why she mentioned cosplay.

Shin: This isn't cosplay, but... I'll explain later, but are Uncle and Auntie home? If I explain things I'll like to take care of it all at once, and not over and over three times.

Chika: They are still at work. They took a lot of time off to look for you, you know? They are back at work now and are even putting in overtime to just keep their jobs.

Shin: Ah... Sorry. I'll apologies to them later. There isn't a need to tell them to come home right away, so we can just wait. I need to make a call now, so we can-

Chika: What do you mean make a call and brushing me off like that!? I was worried Oni-chan! Where were you?

Shin: I'll explain as much as I can later.

Chika: But-

Shin: No buts about it! Just... Just wait till your parents come home.

Chika: ...Fine! I don't care, but you better explain yourself when they get home!

Chika then stormed off to her room and slammed the door so hard Shin flinched.

Shin: Really, how nostalgic. She used to do that whenever we got into fight about me being an Otaku and runs off when she loses. Just that about her is a little cute, although if it was Hiakri it would have been better.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

In the time between Shin last spoke to Chika and when her parents finally got back home, he was able to get into contact with five of his six comrades.

Saki - The preplanned update saying that he arrived and so far I've nothing unusual has been noticed and that he still had all of his enhancements that he exchanged from God, both items and genetic mutations ( Tested Ki, Kagune and Na Ring multiple times in his room with the door closed ). Saki confirmed the same on her end and she hanged up. Saki was not much of a talker.

Kampa - He made a scene when he appeared within a closed and locked internet cafe, but luckly or unluckily no one saw him just appear out of thin air and just assumed that he broke in to rob the place. Kampa stood out a he was a Russian foreigner armed with guns ( hidden in a bag, but still... ), so he ran away in a hurry. He expects to be able to lose the police within a few hour and get on a plane to Russia ( I laughed hearing that part. I was not worried about him getting into trouble with his experience as a mercenary ).

Misaki - A short update saying that he was home and waiting for his sister to come home from after school activities. His human creation Makoto successfully and safety came with him, so Misaki was happy to discover that she really wasn't an illusion.

Shuai - He found himself in his apartment near his college. Similar to Kampa, the time he was in the other dimension was short and he lived alone, so no one was worried about him being missing, which made him happy and sad ( I bet he wishes he had a girlfriend or two like me ).

Aqua - She just gave a short response that she was homeless since it had been months since she left for God's Dimension, so she went without paying rent at her old place and her stuff ( Nothing that she cared for ) was thrown away as well. Aqua was currently staying in a hotel room. Shin offered her a place to stay at his place, but Aqua refused and said that she was fine. Aqua then hung up as she was saying that she was going out for drinks... And Shin found himself wishing that she had invited him ( In the real world I was underage, but in the Terminal Lobby we drank the finest beer and wine like it was water ).

Shin was relived that his comrades were safe and sound back in the real world, but there was just one thing troubling him.

Shin: Why hasn't Hiakri made contact yet? I hope nothing is wrong.

Chika: Onii-ch-, I mean Shin! My parents are back and they want to speak to you. Now!

Shin: Fine, fine, I'm coming down now.

Putting aside Hikari for the moment Shin had to now deal with his uncle and aunt, and explain to them what has been going on with him.

Shin: How does one go about telling other that they were chosen by God to become the hero of this world? Well, I geuss that I have to wing it.

I don't intend to use Onii-chan instead of just brother for future characters, but it is for the purpose of the story for later on.
