"As we all know Zeus was a fool.... He never did care for what he did and how many times he had wronged his wife Hera but yet he stood proud as the Ruler of the gods"
Kijima Kuragari would constantly wonder why in every history lesson he would hear the very same constant criticism of Zeus. He only assumed his teacher was unusually senile and would make it his top priority to keep his distance from people like her.
"Kijima"
He was clearly to deep in thought to even consider that the teacher would even ask him some questions about the task at hand
"KIJIMA"
Most be another Kijima she was referring too and it couldn't have been him he thought. She would be putting respect on his name if that were the case. It couldn't have been him.
"KIJIMA KURAGARI"
"YES MISS!!"
The class would only burst into laughing at kijima's confusion as if it were an ordinary occurrence in lessons like this one.
"Mr Kuragari you clearly have way too little work to do, why don't you recite to me all of Zeus' children?."
"Am sorry to say Ms Ainu but you clearly have some sort of aggression towards Zeus! but why are we even doing something like this during our history lesson???"
"Just hurry up and get on with it you ignorant little brat this knowledge will be important for you one of this days."
"Whaaaa-? This is mythology for a reason it doesn't even exist!"
"I said get on with it! Or would you rather stay on cleaning duty for a whole week??"
"ugh- fine... As you said before Zeus was a bit of a playboy, he had a total of seven powerful children who would all even take their own roles as gods in their own right. Ares the God of war, Athena the goddess of wisdom, Artemis the goddess of hunting, Aphrodite the goddess of beauty and love, Hermes the god of thieves, Dionysus is the god of the grape-harvest, winemaking."
By kijima's tone you could tell that he was a little ignorant but knowledgeable of what he had been taught. He was Half-American and Half Japanese, being more of a light brown colour from his father's side. He was born in japan but shortly moved half way through his second year of middle school. Eventually coming back at the age of 15 ready for his first year of high school. Never would he had thought that he would have to take a class of learning fake history with no good deadbeat--
{RINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGG}
"Ok kids gather your stuff end of class for today and kijima! please try to be more engaged from now on!"
"I willlll..."
The students would release a little giggle and would all make their way out of class.
"Wow Tyler I guess Miss Aiko is always on your back about this mythology stuff huh?"
"Yeah if I didn't know any better I'd think you and her had some problems before you left for America"
Kijima and his friends would simply make their way to the arcade and then split of to their separate ways. So far He has just been going with the flow of things for the last year and hasn't really made many friends apart from the guys he sometimes goes to the arcade with.
" Man I guess staying abroad for so long takes away your ability to make friends easily here.... Bummer-"
" WATCH OUT!!!!"
"What the-"
A girl with pink dyed looking hair and blue eyes would be rushing towards him as if she were running from something.
{WHAM!!}
Of course their crash was inevitable and what's more unfortunate is that they had ended up in quite the uncomfortable position.
"Wow lady you really are a Cluts huh?"
"Oh am so sorry for this! I was running too fast and I couldn't see you until it was too late!"
"Why the hurry? If you mind me asking?"
"I was bringing these books to take to my older brother at the hospital. He seems to love reading them a lot so I thought it would help with his healing.."
"Well that looks a lot for a someone like you to carry all on their own."
"Hey are you suggesting just because am a girl I can't handle a little weight?"
"Oh I said no such thing, I consider myself as quite the feminist you know?"
"How about when it comes to hitting a girl?"
"Equal rights equal fights"
"Holding a door for a lady and saying ladies first?"
"I would see that situation as men just before"
"Oh how about girls being too emotional???"
"Men have plenty of emotions as well just to have you know"
Bystanders would only walk by and giggle at the two acting like a married couple. It would be awkward for a bit but then the mysterious would break the silence by her blushing.
"Actually if you don't mind I would love some help with these"
"I do mind because I never even offered any help just said they looked heavy to carry alone"
"Please just shut up and help me!!!"
"That doesn't sound very ladylike now does it?"
"Oh wow so your just a hypocrite huh?"
"I'd consider myself capricious"
"just help me please"
" Well since your asking very nicely I wouldn't mind helping a cute girl like you"
Her face would turn bright red as if it were in mid summer and the heat radiated of her.
"y-yyou think am cute??"
She would say silently
"what was that?"
"Oh nothing"
"mm mm ok then let's get going"
"Oh alright. Thanks for this.... What is your name?"
"Before one asks for another's name shouldn't they first reveal their own?"
"Stubborn even here huh? Mine name is Iris Persephone, how about you?"
"The name's Kijima... Kijima Kuragari"
It was looking like it was fate that brought these two together, just when Kijima was getting to be lonely. Was it destiny or just a coincidence? He couldn't help but wonder what kind of person her brother was and if he released the same radiance as her....
