It was bright, cold, warm. So many things to feel to be alive. Karma open his eyes as he stare at the roof. He's in an unfamiliar place. He look around and spot a poitrait beside him on the desk. It was him, alone. But it was also not him. He close his eyes for a large breath.

The memories coming through him with a rush. Yes, that person isn't him but another person. He's name is still Karma Akabane, he's parents still goes abroad. He look to his front to catch his reflection. The face of youth, the face he missed as a student of his assassin teacher. He's now young, he remembered that today is his first day of school. It's all going to fast but he just go with it.

He stands up from his bed and walk slowly to the window to see his new neighborhood. He feels truly different, even at his own reflection, he felt the same but all of his appearance just gives him a new person. As he walks to the shower he remember the encounter of him and God.

" I want to live again. " The second the words came out of his mouth a rupple from the ground appear. A shadowy figure stared at him with an expressionless face looking at him as if they seen everything of him. It didn't speak but they hand out their hand. Karma grew speechless, wary to the figure but place his hand to theirs.

" Feel their prayers for you, would you want to live again with your memories or would you want to reborn anew? " The words he was afraid about, Karma gulp, if he was reborn without any memories, it would be a refreshing start, growing without any worries, he smirk, but that's not him. Karma Akabane wants danger, he is willing to reborn again with the feeling he's been taught this past years.

What a waste to forget it all. " No, I would like to keep my memories. " He couldn't comprehend what wonders he will cross, he knew that his life would still be the same, that needs his talent. " When will I be reborn, where will I reborn to? " Those are important questions, you will never know what will await there.

" You'll be in another world. Someone will adress you later and guide you, first you will need a rest. Are you ready? " Karma was waiting for it, he smiled. " Hm. But why would I not just die though? Why give me a chance? " The figure just stared. " You are not fit yet, not ready to end your life without much experience, you will need to learn more. "

It took him time to figure out what they meant by that, didn't he have much time like his classmates? Karma place his palm on his forehead. Such a cliche and fastforward thing to do, first he was dead then revive to be a new a person in another world he's not familiar about. He do have the memories of the original body though. He was a bit excited to start in a new environment but he was more excited on the school he's about to go.

According to his memories, the school is called Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School. Karma snort inside, it's a long name for a school, it should prove it's importance considering it was the original's dream to go there, so it must be a big deal. Karma walk towards his closet for his uniform.

* Creak

Oh? He pick it from the hanger to take a look of the clothing and design. ' This was definitely better than the uniforms from his old school, sure he got a different one but the uniform, it's neatly designed, very fancy and practical. Definitely from an elite high school. He's feeling excited. But he sighed because of so many clothing he should wear from above his body for his uniform.

It was strange, the moment he should forget about the past and move forward. The moment Nagisa mourned for him, he felt almost guilty of it. He destroyed his promise of teaching his students and leave Nagisa there to think of his actions. Moreover it would be a nice development for his friend, it wouldn't stop him from getting worried of the upcomings.

As he finished readying himself and some packing, he thinks he should keep something a bit extreme for his first day, there might be people he can play with, he wonder if there's a spare wasabi and ghost peppers in the house. After his preparation, he goes downstairs.

The living room, the kitchen, everything in here including the photos of 'him' with his 'parents'. It was familiar but unfamiliar at the same time, feels him with a little bit of warmth. ' Now, what should I eat for breakfast? ' Should he make his own lunch too? Absolutely, homemade food made by him specifically is his own usual habits, because of his choices of him liking his own cooking best, not that he tends to be narcissistic.

Karma picks up an apron and ties it neatly on him, he grinned widely. ' Better to make good preparation. ' First impressions is always the best of making people be wary of him. He tends to have his own fun of introductions, whether it's to make people afraid or cautious, it's rather what he aims to specific people. He's excited on what will he be experiencing basically. He will never throw chances like this away to times that he wish he could change.

________________________

It took him time to walk to where the bus stop in the specific time, his memories is still jumbled up but once gets the hang of it, it's clear what possible information he can recieve by just a normal school life. Karma looks down to his phone for the time. ' Just a few minutes, the bus will arrive. ' He look around to see Sakura petals fall over him, he smile a little, to see society still reigns, nothing can destroy pure nature.

He touch a petal that has fallen on him. The soft feeling not that he'd been craving but what he needed. The fact that he should feel to prove that he start again, another chain in life, but what will he do if it's still the same, the system of corruption. There's no one he could trust just yet, until he find a formidable partner, he needs to keep things in low profile.

As he stopped to the bus station he scroll his eyes to the side and smirk. ' Just in time. ' The bus coming over his direction stopped just in the exact time, the people near him quickly head inside making him feel that the schedule is being controlled to have a tight business. As the residents went in he went in last. The bus door already snap shut.

To the other student's unfortune, he was running towards the bus but was bummed to see it close, Karma almost felt bad for him. The bus start leaving the late student. Karma look towars his side. The seats are already not vacant, he has no choice but to stand. His pupils then move towards the direction of the other students with the same uniform as him.

He can tell their first years by the way of their face and reactions to going to school. He was like that but no one tends to show their own pleased expression when it comes to political system giving them the chance of going to a place of which anyone special attends to go to. But the way how society treats others, there's no doubt that the school of his is going to treat them the same way.

He payed no mind. a school is a school, if theres any consequences why not abide to them. As he look to the window beside him, a drama starts to occur.

" Excuse me.. Could you give up your seat? " A squeaky female voice bloomed beside him. Karma look sideways to see a girl with short beige-colored hair and a rather cute appearance to what Kayano wants to be as.

The scene was shown that she was beside a little old lady. Infront of her was a male sitting down with a jerkish manner, crossing his arms and legs as if to ignore the girl's question. Karma pinned them with interest. Seems like he's not giving up his seat. how will it go?

" That's a priority seat. I think you should let this elderly lady sit there. " The girl continued.

The male with long blonde hair and sturdy complexion, he didn't budge nor open his eyes. " Oya oya, pretty girl, While it may be a priority seat, I have no obligation to relinquish it. "

Oya oya, what big words, sitting there with a proud smirk he must have lived with pretty much no care in the world. Such troublesome type of people.

" You want me to give up my seat just because I'm young? Ha ha. Nonsense, truly. " The male continued making the old lady and girl be attacked with dread. " Even if I'm young, standing consumes more stamina than sitting. Why should I do something so destrimental with no benifit to myself? "

The girl proceeded to smile as she sweat. " I think you'd be contributing to society. And this lady seems to be having trouble staying upright... "

" I have no interest in contributing to society. " The blonde male open his magenta eyes as he trace his bangs. " Besides.. What about those sitting on the regular seats? The difference between priority and regular seats seems rather trivial to me. "

The old lady smiled at the girl. " Really, I'm fine. Thank you. " The girl look unsure as she let out a sighing breath, she look to everyone around in the bus.

" Excuse me! Would any of you be willing to give up your seat? " The people rather looks hesitant.

If Karma would have a seat himself he would give but as you can see, he doesn't have one and then he also wants to see how everything would be played. She is troubled and not give up until the old lady is seated. The people around is just citizens to the society and is not willing to give up their own spot.

It's a different gap between them those who are trusted and those who are not to be trusted. It's like a spot of levels, the people seated are in level B and the old lady is in level C, who would want to give up their own spot, just like who will be the one to stand and let the old lady sit down their seat.

Karma then look away and focus to the window, it's not time yet. He scroll his pupils to the fellow students. They look rather unsure now, the ones who are, are just normal people trying to fit in, now who are the other two infront of his vision. A male and a female, they both look normal but if you look closely, they are fitted to be his own keycards to the school system.

The girl with long luscious black hair and ruby red eyes focus on her own book with no pure , she knows of the rules already. Now the boy looking at the girl. He looks plain, with brown hair and brown eyes, he has those mysterious vibe in him. Karma grit his teeth to contain his curiousity of the two. The cute girl who is beside the lady is also a person he should look out for. Hardly anyone would stand out this easily.

Suddenly, a hand shot out above. A woman break the silence. " Um.. You can have mine. " The girl beamed at the woman.

" Thank you so much! " Karma puff a hair on his bangs and smiled at the action. The woman looks hesitant but she complies with the old lady's troubles. He really wonder how scary the system is. Was it like his world?

As the bus stops. Karma immedietely look up with a whistle. Right infront of him is his new high school, it is definitely better than Kunugigaoka Magic Academy. It was definitely spacious, the sakura blossoms are making it look welcoming together with the school's design and appearance. The school infront of him he remembered that it was built by the japanese government itself.

It is said to nurture the young people who will support the country in the future. It gives 100% employment and entry rate and gives it's best pursuing the nation's desired future. In short, the government who made this school is sure that they can straighten up students by teaching in this so called system. It's pretty clear this is no ordinary high school.

He can tell that this has it's up and downs and considering the wide area it must have some equipments for us students to conjure. By any means mentally and physically Karma himself is estatic and ready.

" Hey. " A girl's voice said near him. It was the black-haired girl, she stand infront of the boy he saw earlier with a serious expression. " You were looking at me on the bus. Why's that? " She look down to the brown haired boy.

The boy looked indifferent. " Oh. My bad. I thought you didn't seem interested in giving up your seat like me. You hate getting involved in stuff like that too, huh? "

He seem to be the type who didn't care and just go with it, interesting. The girl stare at him. " Don't assume we're the same, I didn't give up my seat due to my conviction. " She then turn to Karma making the boy tilt his head.

" And you, don't think I didn't notice your roaming eyes even when your facing the window earlier. " Karma's grin widen, wow, to think she observe everything while reading a book, he totally met the golden duo.

He let out a heart laugh as he lay his head on his arms. " Ah gomen gomen. Must be that I'm interested with the other students who are attending the same school as me, I might have distracted you with your reading. "

The girl close her eyes. " You saw me reading which means you stare more at me than to other students, I don't know what piqued your interest but don't think I won't forget your intentions if I've seen one. If that's all, then I'm off. " She flip her long hair before walking away.

The boy nod a bit before walking away, Karma smirked before nabbing the boy shoulder with his grasp. The boy looked confused. Karma smiled and hand out his hand.

" Karma Akabane, lovely morning, we'll see eachother from now on hm? " What a way of making friends. The boy go silent before shaking his hand. " Kiyotaka Ayanokoji. "

Karma nod before letting go. He then walk away leaving the boy contemplating. ' That boy, Karma, like other students, they say see you later or any pleasant things before walking away, what that boy is doing, is a warning, he's on me. But what is it that strike that interest? ' Because he's been observing more when he was in class 3-E. Karma's own natural talent.

' Another person to kill, another to crack, what are you Kiyotaka? ' Karma's target is acquired. He needs to focus more on other things now since he has found a valuable asset. ' He's a guy who seem to be expressionless but I can tell he's hiding something, cracking it, I want to see him on action. ' But he'll wait, starting any problems would expose him. He's job as an assassin just started.

" Next, we'll have a few words from the new student council president. " Clapping was heard from the crowd as a male walk to the stage. " I am the student council president, Manabu Horikita. " With black hair and ruby eyes hidden behind his glasses, he looked a bit like the ruby haired miss he met earlier. Is he her older brother perhaps? His form reminds him of Asano Gakushu, the new principal and former leader of the big five in his high school years.

Horikita place both his hands to the table. " As the representative of the upper classes, I would like to express my greetings to our newest students. As you might know, our school is highly accomplished in all aspects, and boasts a high employment and college entry rate. This is the pride of our school which achieved through our hard work of both our graduating students and those still attending. "

Some kids are already becoming sleepy and ignored the speech as Karma listen attentively. That male standing infront of all of them is a superior. Clearly he knows much more of the system here and wants the newbies to develop a sick feeling of hell. Clever devil is he Mr. Student Council President.

" We expect the same from the new students.... "

Karma look to his side and beamed, he's the same class as the golden duo. He remembered that being in Class D, clearly this body rather wants a 50/50 on his test and be planted between. He thought he would have a hard time getting between them but here they are.

" ....Is decided by one's proficiency... "

Karma walk through halls, the inside of the school is clearly a mall, who knew that the government spends so much to make this so fancy. He then stop walking by the sign. Class 1-D. This is his classroom. He open the door revealing students chattering cheerily to eachother, mostly the girls, they seem to be oblivious on what's come to them. Karma just shook his head before finding his seat.

" Oh? What genre.. Well... I like romance! "

" Oh really? "

" Stuffs like shoujo manga.. "

" Really? I like mysteries! "

" Mysteries?! "

Karma stop walking as he is now staring at Kiyotaka who was sitting by the window. He let out a low chuckle. ' What is he, a main character? ' He smiled before sitting infront of him making Kiyotaka face Karma's red hair. Karma look behind him with a smirk. Both the people he'd been talking to are sitting together behind him. What utter luckiness!!

Kiyotaka pondered as he stare at the ruby eyed girl. ' So I'm next to her. ' He then scroll his eyes to Karma who is lying his legs on the desk with no care. ' And him.. ' " What an unpleasant coincidence. " The girl said as she keep her eyes on her book.

" The same goes for me. " Kiyotaka said. Karma lay his elbow on the chair turning to them. " Well we're together, what a nice suprise, ohayo~. " He smiled but stopped when a boy let his attention over to him.

" Everyone, may I have your attention, please? "

Both the boys look infront. Everyone gives their attention to the boy with yellow to green hair. He seems to be the confident and easy going type. " I was hoping we could all introduce ourselves, to get better acquainted early on the first day. The teacher doesn't seem to be here yet as well. " He then look at them. " What do you think? "

The girl who reminds Karma of Kayano raise her hand cheerily. " I'm in! " Another girl with long yellow hair pulled up into a ponytail chime in. " Sounds good for me. " Another girl with maroon hair and violet eyes look at them with a suspicious grin. " Yeah. I don't even know anyone's names. "

The boy smiled. " Thanks. I'll go first, then. I'm Yosuke Hirata. Just call me Yosuke. " Yosuke put a hand on his chest as he look at everyone in the room. " My hobby is all kinds of sports, and I intend to join the soccer club at this school. Nice to meet you all. "

Several claps erupt the classroom. Introduction huh? Karma focus his gaze at Yosuke. ' He seems to be wanting the attention to start off as a good classmate, to get the help and let people think of him as a great ally. This might be a great start. ' Karma turn his eyes over as if he's looking at Kiyotaka.

' I wonder how his introduction will go, I bet he will say he's name only and that he's nothing special. Exactly on how I will answer if I were him. The higher ups must be looking for the special ones with true talent. '

" I'll go next! " It was the cheery girl from before, she stands up and place her hand to her chest smiling across the room. " My name is Kikyo Kushida. My goal is to become friends with each and every one of you! I wish to make lots of good memories so don't hesitate to invite me anywhere! "
