I stared out the window of the train we were in. Kuromi was in the seat in front of mine and looked at me a bit before turning away. We were silent most of the way, mainly because we didn't truly know what to do say. Well, I didn't know what to say...
"Ugh! This is going to be so boring, say something! Anything!" Kuromi groaned.
"Something about this city just feels so...familiar..." I said and stared outside.
Kuromi stared at me then tilted her head a bit. "What do you mean?"
"I don't know...I just feel like I've been here before when I know I haven't even heard of this city before. Deja Vu maybe? I can't really put my finger on it.." I said.
"Well...Maybe one of your predecessors were here prior to the destruction. I wouldn't put it past you." Kuromi said.
I shrugged and looked at Kuromi. "Maybe.."
Kuromi looked at me then blushed a bit, quickly turning her head. "I mean I wouldn't know..! Maybe you have been here, but you just don't remember!"
I looked at Kuromi and smiled a bit. "Right, whatever you say drama queen."
"Hmph!" Kuromi scoffed.
[Kuromi's Bond Increased.]
The train made it to the Central District of Seraph City. Once the train came to a stop, we got off and I followed Kuromi around. She wanted to show me around Central District before we got to doing our errands.
"Central District is where everything is basically at. Seraphs from all other Districts come here all the time to hang out or whatever they do. Central District is also the capital of Seraph City where the Trinity Council lies." Kuromi said.
"Trinity Council?" I asked.
"Yeah, it's the council that was made by Mihr, Jabril, and Nexa after the war. They are basically our Higher Ups, the Overseers of Seraph City. That's their HQ right there." Kuromi said then pointed at a massive skyscraper. "The Tower of Heaven is what they call it. Actually this District is also home to maybe one of the strongest Academies known to all Angels named Trinity Academy."
"I mean I can see why." I said.
"Kuromi!" A voice called out toward us.
Kuromi and I turned around to see a woman hurrying toward us.
[Name: Hinabi Atsuki]
[Age: 19]
[Birthday: November 27th]
[Height: 158cm]
[Faction: Trinity Lessons Department]
[Type of Seraph: Support]
[Hobbies: Collecting cute things, Shopping, Collecting all colors of Ponaras]
'The fuck is a Ponara?' I thought to myself.
"Ponaras are cute Volatile Penguin Creatures that you throw and they explode. They do have their own abilities though, but that's their core mechanic."
'They sound so familiar but I'll move on..'
Hinabi was a cute woman with creamy skin, light brown, low twintails tied with a yellow-black ribbon and white wing hair ornament, and bright yellow eyes. She wore a white Trinity Academy uniform with a large yellow ribbon, the school logo emblazoned on her left sleeve and a blue pleated skirt with white angel patterns and white frills underneath. She wore black pantyhose and white sneakers as well. She carried her pink and white assault rifle around her left shoulder and a cute pink Ponara Backpack on her right.
"Hey Hinabi~ Out here running errands as well?~" Kuromi asked.
"Mhm!~" Hinabi smiled and nodded. She noticed me and looked amazed. "I didn't know you had a boyfriend!~"
Kuromi looked at me quickly with a wild blush on her face. She struck my jaw, knocking me away. "H-He's not my boyfriend!!"
I walked back toward her and Hinabi, holding my jaw and grunted softly. "You know, I would get pissed the fuck off right now...but I am going to just pray to Yascha to give me the strength to not put a bullet through your head right now..." I said and began praying.
Hinabi noticed how easy I took one of Kuromi's punches. "He's rather durable isn't he?"
"I was hoping he'd die from one of my full power strikes to the jaw." Kuromi muttered.
I palmed the top of her head and she whined. "Let us go before I end up snapping your neck."
I walked off and placed my hands in my jacket pockets.
Kuromi waved goodbye to Hinabi. "See you, Hina~"
"You too, Kuro!~" Hinabi waved and smiled.

Kuromi and I finished our errands rather quickly and sent everything off to Valkyrie Academy. We was making our way back to the station until we were stopped by a group of delinquents.
"Give us everything you've got! Drop all your valuables right now!" The leader said.
Kuromi and I looked at each other then burst out laughing. The delinquents glared at us for not taking them seriously.
"We're not playing with you Custards! Give us everything value right now or we shoot!" The leader demanded.
I sighed and crossed my arms. "How about a no."
The leader fired a bullet as us and noticed we dodged the bullet. The leader groaned as Kuromi struck her with a lariat, knowing her back. The leader rolled backwards then grunted as I kicked her into a wall then snapped my fingers and blades emerged from the ground, trapping her where she was.
"Look at how easily we defeated your Leader? You all still wanna be delinquents? Pathetic." I said then released their leader.
I looked at the leader and noticed they had the same insignia as Ara from the Reaper Academy. I scoffed and walked off. Kuromi followed me and we made our way to the station. We got inside the train once it arrived then took our seats.
"That was pretty cool what you did with the blade thing." Kuromi said.
"Well it was thanks to Sera since she is the one that did it." I said and smiled.
"Right...Uhm listen I'm sorry for what I did to you earlier. I might've overrated when Hinabi suggested that you were my boyfriend..." Kuromi said.
"It's fine. I forgive you.." I said and smiled, reaching over to poke her forehead.
Kuromi grunted softly as I poked her then smiled a bit. "Thanks..."
___________________
Kuromi and I made it back to the Valkyrie District and made our way to the academy. We noticed a few students coming in and out of the academy. The students coming in and out were generic looking Angels with basic halos.
We walked through the front gates of the Academy then noticed more students inside. Blair looked back and noticed us then smiled. She hurried over to us and smiled brightly.
"You wouldn't believe who actually showed up to help be our Principal our Academy!~" Blair said.
"Who?" Kuromi asked.
Blair smiled at us and looked back. Kuromi looked at the woman and grunted.
"Yofiel's sister?! How is she even QUALIFIED to teach anything beyond a rock?!" Kuromi asked.
"C'mon~ Ophiel isn't even that bad~ She made it to one of the top ranked of the Trinity Council!~" Blair said and smiled at us.
I looked at Ophiel and noticed she looked nearly identical to Yofiel...just older. I noticed Sera didn't scan her then looked at Sera.
Sera looked at me. "What?"
"Seriously nothing?" I asked.
"That woman is like pushing 40. I do not think you'd want to date someone that's nearly 20 years older than you." Sera said.
"I guess, but it wouldn't hurt to know something about her." I said.
"Fine." Sera said.
[Name: Ophiel Hoshina]
[Age: 37]
[Affiliation: Trinity Council (Learning District)]
[Hobbies: Literally probably the same as Yofiel.]
"You two shouldn't just stand there clueless, come on and greet her~" Blair said and smiled.
Blair pulled us over to Ophiel and Ophiel looked at us then gave us a happy, yet lazy smile. She was damn there identical to Yofiel so I could see where Yofiel got her entire flow from.
Kuromi pointed at Ophiel then I lowered her hand. Kuromi calmed down and sighed. "You're actually our principal...You are way too lazy to be our Principal!"
Ophiel giggled and gently ruffled Kuromi's hair. "I missed you too, Kuro~"
I looked at Ophiel and noticed she had black wings. "Is she a Fallen Angel, or an Omega Angel?"
"Ophiel is actually neither. She's a descendant of Lilith and all of Lilith's Descendants have black wings like Yofiel does, but also because they are descendants their traditions and cultures remain. They all eat from the Garden of Nexus when they turn 18." Blair informed.
"That's why we know so much. We ate from the Tree of Knowledge, but we also gain a drawback. If we eat from then Tree of Knowledge, the drawback is supernatural laziness. The only reason this happens is because the fruit is Imperfect. Their Perfect Effects aren't present because Yascha didn't grow the fruit, Nexus did." Ophiel said.
I looked at Sera and she nodded, confirming what she said was the truth.
"Well I mean, that would explain why she talks a lot. People look at her like she's crazy because what she says is rather outlandish, but more power to her. Look I'm gonna head out. Get a little me time." I said.
"Right, see you around~" Blair waved.
I waved as I walked off. I rented out a winged motorcycle then mounted on it. I put my helmet on then rode off into the distance. Sera happily flew behind and flew free like a bird. As I drove I noticed Sunakami driving on her motorcycle then heard a siren. Sunakami sped past me and the Peace Keeper Task Force drove after her. I grunted softly and drove after them.
I noticed they nearly had Sunakami pull over then my Live Decoy zoomed past them at over 100 MPH, making them prioritize my decoy. Sunakami watched then looked back at me noticing me slowly pulling up.
I took my helmet off then moved my hair from my face. "You are a little trouble maker. No better than those Delinquents.."
Sunakami smiled at me then took off her helmet as well. "How'd you know it was me...and not some random delinquent..?~"
"At some point I've grown to realize how much of a free spirit you truly are. I'm more curious about you and who your descendants are." I said.
"Well if you wanna know more about me, meet me up there. The big sign saying Tsunahara's Ramen, loser buys." Sunakami said then put on her helmet.
I watched as she rode off into the distance then put my helmet on. I revved my engine then drove forward. Sunakami looked back and swiped her hand, making an earpiece appear on her helmet.
"Turn left, there's a Peace Keeper Angel ahead." Sunakami said then made a quick turn left.
As I turned left, I noticed flashing lights then sighed. "We're getting chased!"
"Right turn." Sunakami said.
I took a right and ended up off road. A biker Peace Keeper Angel drove after us. She unholstered her handgun then took aim at our wheels. Sunakami began swerving from side to side, evading the bullets. Sera protected me with an invisible digital shield.
"A ramp ahead, make the jump." Sunakami said.
I watched as she jumped off the ramp. I smirked and sped up then jumped off the ramp as well. A digital road formed beneath me made from Sera's digital trail as she flew. Sera looped over me, ending her tail and got me near Sunakami. The two of us lost the Peace Keepers then made it to Tsunahara's Ramen Shop.
"Looks like I lost." I said as I stopped beside Sunakami.
Sunakami looked at me then smirked. "You weren't half bad, but you are a bad influence on me..~ You aren't as stuck up as Ayane although still reasonable like her..~ What made you want to do this?"
"I can't really explain the feeling, but it was like something came over me...it made me enjoy the thrill. I don't know." I said with a soft chuckle.
Sunakami looked at me then closed her eyes, smiling. "I see...well it's safe for you to assume our nature as Angels. I was hoping everything I do gave away what type of angel I was. The Valkyrie Angels like me are Descendants of the Norse. I am th Descendant of Loki."
"I figured...but for some reason I like that about you." I said.
[Sunakami's Bond Increased.]
Sunakami got off her bike and smirked. "C'mon on, I'm hungry and you're paying."
I placed my hands in my pockets then got off my motorcycle and followed Sunakami. "Don't break my wallet, Suna."
"Oh don't worry, in a few days it'll recharge~" Sunakami said and walked in the store.
I smiled and chuckled as I followered her inside. "Right..~"
