(Y/n)'s point of view.

Tuesday, October 18, 20XX

Location: (L/n) Residence.

Time: Morning.

I wake up to the sound of my alarm going off and went to hit the button. I yawn sitting up and hang my legs over the edge of my bed. I stretch my arms and legs out to hear a few pops and cracks happen. I sigh with relief at the feeling of working out the kinks of my body. I pass by my mirror and calendar while taking a short glance at it. When I realize what I saw, I looked back and saw it was the 18th. I grew a smile on my face knowing what was going to happen today. The act my group and myself were to perform and the pageant Noire was going to participate in.

(Y/n): Let's see what today holds for all of us.

(Insert Kirihirake! Gracie☆Star here)

I walk downstairs rubbing my eyes to get the sleep out of them and saw Noire at the stove cooking something up. From seeing the other CPUs, they were still asleep. Vert taking the comfy chair, with Neptune and Blanc on the couch. Noire must have been unlucky again to get the bad chair last night again. Can't blame her really. That chair always makes it hard to fall asleep quickly, and ends up waking the person during the middle of the night.

(Y/n): Morning Noire.

Noire turns around and smiles towards me.

Noire: Morning (Y/n). Any chance of a good rest last night?

(Y/n): Yeah. I was able to get a good night rest for once. You ready for today Noire? Not nervous or anything like that?

Noire turns to me and gives me a look to see if I was kidding.

Noire: For your information, yes I am. I had a week to prepare and get ready for this pageant and the act our group will be doing as well.

(Y/n): That's good. I'm glad you're excited for today as I am.

We both smile towards each other for a few seconds before Noire turns back to what she was cooking before at the stove. I peek over her shoulder to see it's a couple of eggs sizzling on the pan.

(Y/n): Never saw you cook before Noire. Why now?

Noire: Well, with me being up, I thought I help make some breakfast before the others and yourself wake up. Want to help out?

I look at Noire and smile at her offer.

(Y/n): A splendid idea Noire. Sure I'll help.

With Noire and I, making breakfast for the others will help making the time go by quicker. I helped make some hash browns and put some bread in the toaster for toast. It took about fifteen minutes for Noire and I to almost finish making breakfast, until I heard someone yawning at the couch. I could see Neptune sit up and stretching her arms out. I see Neptune was sniffing the air as her nose caught wind of the food me and Noire made together. Neptune turns around and notices that we were in the direction of the scent.

Neptune: Did you two make breakfast?

(Y/n): Noire was up before I was and started it. She offered me to help her out on making other stuff to eat. On the menu this morning: Eggs, hash browns and toast.

Neptune: Oooo~ Yummy~!

I grabbed a plate and gave a fair amount to Neptune. She took the first bite out of the food and I could see her enjoying it. It made me smile seeing those close to me happy. After Neptune had finished she had a look of delight, showing she was full of energy I would usually see from her.

Neptune: Awesome meal you two! That was delicious!

(Y/n): It was nothing really, today is special for all of us for what's planned. The act our group will be doing and the beauty pageant Noire is in. Everyone has to be at the top of their game.

Neptune: Oh yeah, how's the dress Noire?

(Y/n): Dress?

I then saw Noire head over to Neptune to cover her mouth from talking any further. I could see a blush on Noire's face from her being embarrassed.

Noire: D-Don't worry about what Neptune is t-talking about (Y/n). There was a slight problem I saw in one of the clothes I made and was able to fix it. So don't worry about it!

I looked at Noire and Neptune and shrugged it off. After everyone else woke up, they each got something to eat and enjoyed the meal. The meal was pretty good from Noire and myself making it together. When I was done eating and Vert was done with the shower, I then got mine and got dressed for today. I had told my mom about the festival a couple of days ago before today to see if she wanted to join us on spending the day there. She had answered yes to my offer as we all were heading out the door. Abby walked to her school, Dad drove his car to work and our group met with (F/n) and Emma along the way to school. I have an absolute feeling, nothing is going to ruin today at all.

Location: Ohashi High, Gymnasium.

Time: Noon.

Time during the festival flew by as the other festivities for today were happening. What I was excited for was the act my group was going to do while we were in the changing rooms. I was in my blue suit Noire had made for me while everyone else got into theirs. I was pretty excited about this for a couple reasons. I saw that our group was up next as I turned to my friends.

(Y/n): Let's give these people something to laugh at people. Who's with me?!

I could see my friends raise their hands and cheer with me while I looked at my mom and gave her the nod. She smiled seeing it was time to put my actual plan for this whole thing together come to fruition. Our stage was set where there was a couple of tables and a podium where my script was. I stood at the podium while (F/n), and the CPUs sat at the tables. I turned to the students of the school and announced us.

(Y/n): Hello everyone, I hope you're enjoying the festival today. I am (Y/n) (L/n) and over there are my VERY good friends: (F/n), Noire, Neptune, Blanc and Vert. Our act for today comes from a comedy group you might know called: The Frantics. We will be recreating the "Last Will and Temperament" act. Enjoy the show.

After the announcement, I turned to the podium and began our show.

(Y/n)/Executor: As the executor of Mr. Muldoon's estate, I have been empowered to read Mr. Muldoon's Last Will And Testament.

(F/n)/Hedge: Well, get on with it, the bars open soon. I got places to be.

Using a prop (F/n) took a drink from a cup filled with water.

Noire/Jenny: Oh, poor, dear Arthur! Waaaa!

Neptune/Hank: Oh, there, there, Jenny. It's okay.

I could see Noire and Neptune take their roles seriously as Neptune pats Noire on the back.

Blanc/Ralston: This is so predictable.

Vert/Mrs. Mulroy: I never worked for a kinder man.

(Y/n)/Executor: If we are all seated, I shall proceed with the reading.

Blanc/Ralston: I knew it.

(F/n)/Hedge: Heh heh heh heh.

I then held up a paper and acted like there were words on it.

(Y/n)/Executor: "I, Authur Durham Muldoon, being of sound mind and body..."

(F/n)/Hedge: That's a laugh! Hahahaha!

(Y/n)/Executor: "...do hereby divide up my considerable estate as follow. To my overly emotional sister, Jenny..."

I could hear Noire pretend to cry her eyes out while Neptune got her attention that they were being talked to and calmed down rather quickly. Their acting was pretty good actually.

(Y/n)/Executor: "...who laughed with her husband, Hank, laughed at everything that happened to me and then left me hanging when I needed help..."

That's when my plan went into action. I had everyone follow the script down to the end of how it went. But now, I was putting what happened to ME in Hyper dimension into this!

Noire/Jenny: W-What?

(Y/n)/Executor: "...To Jenny, I leave a boot to the head."

Noire/Jenny: A what? *bonk*

Before Noire could react, a boot had sailed right to her head. Everyone looked at Noire and the boot that had hit her. They looked to see where it came from and saw to their horror. Behind where no one could see her, my mom had gathered lots of boots for this occasion for this particular act. As for where Emma was, let's just say that she was part of the audience with a video camera to record this moment.

Noire/Jenny: Ow!

Neptune/Hank: J-Jenny, are you okay?!

(Y/n)/Executor: "And another boot to her wimpy, yet hyperactive, husband, Hank."

Neptune/Hank: Uh, wait a minute! *bonk* Ow!

Another boot was thrown by my mother which had nailed Neptune right at the noggin as she fell over. (F/n) laughed out loud during this while the others were just as amused with him. Neptune and Noire get back up and look at me with a smile on my face. I could see Noire get mad somewhat for why this was happening.

Noire/Jenny: What is the meaning of this?!

(Y/n)/Executor: "Ah, but still, you are someone I care for, you both admired my Rolls Royce, and since I no longer need it-"

Noire/Jenny: Oh, dear Arthur, he's too kind!

Neptune/Hank: Yes, yes. Very much.

(Y/n)/Executor: "I bequeath another boot to the head."

Noire/Jenny: Excuse me? *bonk* Ow!

(F/n)/Hedge: Hahahaha!

(Y/n)/Executor: "And one more for the wimp."

Neptune/Hank: *bonk* Ow!

I look at Neptune and Noire who were very confused with the whole situation as I saw Neptune turn her attached mic off and whisper something into Noire's ear as she did the same.

Neptune: (Whispers) Oh... Now I see why it was called "Temperament." Very clever Soejammy... Giving (Y/n) here some pay back... Why do I feel my sins crawling up my back?

Noire: (Whispers) This... Is going to be bad for us huh...?

Neptune: (Whispers) Yup...

I watched as Neptune and Noire switched their mics back on and with me to resume with what I have planned.

(Y/n)/Executor: "Next, to my idiotic friend..."

Now it was (F/n)'s turn to give me a look as he realized what was going to happen.

(F/n)/Hedge: Hey, wait a minute! I don't want a boot to the head!

(Y/n)/Executor: "...to dear Hedge, who has gotten me into sticky situations from time and time again..."

(F/n)/Hedge: Hahahaha! Nope! I'm covering up my head! *goes under the table*

I smile as I trick him in a way that gets his attention.

(Y/n)/Executor: "...I leave my game system and three games of my finest plays."

(F/n)/Hedge: *Comes up from under the table* Wait, really?

(Y/n)/Executor: *points a finger at (F/n)* "With a boot to the head!"

(F/n)/Hedge: *bonk* Shit!

The audience was laughing at this point with how this was playing out. Now to continue this mess.

(Y/n)/Executor: "And another for Jenny and the wimp."

Neptune/Hank and Noire/Jenny: What?! *bonk* Oof!

I could hear my mother chuckling. She was probably enjoying this more than anything due to agreeing to help me with this plan. I then looked towards Blanc while our eyes met. She could tell what would be happening. Which is why I gave each role to a specific to each person for this act.

(Y/n)/Executor: "Next, to my know-it-all nephew, Ralston..."

Blanc/Ralston: Just get this over with...

(Y/n)/Executor: "...I leave a boot to the head."

With a hit on the head with the boot, she has her signature angry face and hits the table.

Blanc/Ralston: I knew that would happen!

(Y/n)/Executor: "And one for Jenny and the wimp."

Neptune/Hank and Noire/Jenny: Oh come on! *bonk* Why?!

I saw Neptune and Noire fall over from the many hits given to them. Boy was I enjoying this payback more than anything. I was trying to control my laughter to stay in character.

(Y/n)/Executor: "This *snerk* takes care of family obligations. And now, to Mrs. Mulroy..."

Vert becomes tensed for what was about to happen next and began to sweat.

Vert/Mrs. Mulroy: I uh, actually think I should go...

(Y/n)/Executor: "...who took care of me like a sibling I never had for these many, many, years, who cared, made me laugh, brought me tea..."

Vert/Mrs. Mulroy: O-Oh, that's actually sweet really.

(Y/n)/Executor: "To Mrs. Mulroy, I bequeath a boot to the head."

Vert/Mrs. Mulroy: *bonk* Ah! Now that was quite rude doing that after giving such praise!

I could see Neptune and Noire trying to get back up and recover from being hit with boots as I then pointed to them again.

(Y/n)/Executor: "And one for Jenny and the wimp."

Neptune/Hank and Noire/Jenny: Wait just a- *bonk* Ow!

The two fell down again once more and I soon see Noire getting up slowly as she gives me a look.

Noire/Jenny: Hey! I thought you were done with family obligations or whatever?!

(Y/n)/Executor: Sorry ma'am. I am only doing what the will is asking to happen. I have priorities to fulfill the deceased wishes. Now please be quiet.

Noire/Jenny: Grrrr! I'll give you a reason to read a will from a dead man!

(Y/n)/Executor: "And so, to my cat Mittens, I leave my entire vast... boot to the head!"

A thud could be heard as a loud meow was then sounded off in the process.

(Y/n)/Executor: "And finally, to my lawyer, who has helped me on this will, I leave not a boot to the head... but a rabid African squirrel, to be placed in his trousers?!"

I looked at that part and looked down behind me to see someone pulling on my pants backwards. It was my mother doing that and holding a rabid African squirrel in her hand at the same time!

(Y/n): (Thoughts) In hind sight of this... I deserve this... But it's sure worth it!

My mother drops the squirrel in my pants and it begins to growl and bite at my skin!

(Y/n)/Executor: Ooohhh!! Oh, huh huh huh huh, and, and, "...and I leave my entire state of $10 million to the people of Calgary so they can afford to move somewhere decent!" Huh.

I could feel the damn squirrel being pulled out from my pants as my mother gives me a thumbs up for the acting. I then turned towards the others on the stage with me as they had looks of outrage on them. The crowd was going wild on laughing as most were having a gut buster of a time laughing.

Neptune/Hank: Is that it?

Blanc/Ralston: That's it?

(F/n)/Hedge: That's just disgraceful!

(Y/n)/Executor: There's one last thing for everyone.

My friends looked very shocked and (F/n) reacted first by using his hands to shield his head.

(F/n)/Hedge: Protect your heads, everybody!

(Y/n)/Executor: "I leave everyone a lifetime supply of ice cream."

Neptune/Hank: Ice cream?

(F/n)/Hedge: Ice cream?

Blanc/Ralston: Ice cream, that's all?

(Y/n)/Executor: That's all.

Vert/Mrs. Mulroy: Well, what flavor is it?

I smiled when that question was asked as my friends had a look of horror at what was planned. I pointed at my friends as I announced Vert's answer.

(Y/n)/Executor: Boot to the head!

With that said, my mother began throwing boots at a fast pace from the side, as tons of boots were either missing or hitting my friends. The audience was laughing hard with me bowing to them while my friends were getting a beat down.

(Y/n): Thank you! You've been a wonderful audience! Enjoy the rest of the festival!

The crowd cheered with that statement while I spied a specific person in the crowd. I could see Johnathan with that look of disapproval on his face. John knew I was looking at him as I gave him a look of my own. I saw him beginning to leave the room and kept looking at him. Seeing John always puts me on edge with him always being nearby. If there was one thing I wasn't going to let him ruin, it was the fun this school was having today for the festival. I then felt a hand grab mine as I was being dragged towards the back with the curtains closing in front of me. I looked behind me to see Noire dragging me as the others picked me up and pinned me to the wall. They each gave me a glare of anger behind it.

(Y/n): Okay, I know you all are mad, but I have my reasons.

Noire: And what reasons were there that had to do with Neptune and myself getting pelted with more boots than the others?!

Neptune: Yeah! What was that about!?

(Y/n): Call it payback for the time you tricked me into fighting a pack of wild Dogoo! You laughed when I needed help from those slimy freaks!!

(F/n): Wait, that seriously happened to you man? But wait, why was I getting a boot then?!

(Y/n): The act should have given you a clue what I meant you idiot.

(F/n): You shit!

Vert: Then that leaves me and Blanc wondering why we were part of it if this was meant to give payback to the others.

(Y/n): To be honest with you Vert, you and Blanc have never done anything wrong to me. I am sorry for catching you both in it, but if I didn't, then it would have looked weird that everyone didn't get a boot to the head...

I felt Neptune and Noire pull me away from the wall and watch them both give me an uppercut together. I was launched into the air and landed on my back with a thud. I sat up after recovering slightly and rubbed my jaw.

(Y/n): Yeah... I deserved that... Ouch...

Noire: It serves you right.

I could hear my mother chuckling softly at the scene we were making. I was glad my mom enjoyed what went on today. If I know her, she likes causing mischief sometimes. This was one of them. Emma then approached me with a tape in her hands as my friends had a questionable look on their faces.

Emma: Here's your tape (Y/n).

(Y/n): Oh, the tape. Did you get everything?

Emma: Yes. Everything that happened is on that tape.

(Y/n): Good. Thanks for your assistance.

Neptune: Tape?

I smiled when Neptune said that and held the video tape in my hand.

(Y/n): This here is the embarrassment you five went through. I thought I have Emma record it for me since she wasn't in the act for our group. I don't care about what happens to me in my plans. As long as I get my objective completed, I have no regrets.

That's when (F/n) looked at Emma who gave an embarrassed chuckle to him and sweatdropped.

(F/n): Emma...! You knew about this...?!

Emma: Yeah... I'm sorry (F/n). (Y/n) approached me with the idea and said I would be safe from his plan if I recorded the act for him.

I chuckled at the sight of (F/n) in shock as I had four glaring eyes on me from the CPUs.

Neptune: (Y/n).

(Y/n): Yes?

Noire: Give us the tape.

(Y/n): Now why would I do that?

Vert: Because we are asking very kindly right now.

(Y/n): And if I don't comply?

Blanc cracked her knuckles and glared at me the most. Of course she would get mad at this...

Blanc: If you don't... Prepare for the beat down of your life from us goddesses!

That made me pale slightly at the threat made towards me and sweated in the process. I thought of something quick and pointed in the direction behind them.

(Y/n): Look! Something shiny and distracting!

CPUs: Huh?

They look behind them just like I wanted and hurried and ran in the other direction to the doors. They yelled when they realized they've been tricked.

Neptune: Darn it! Why does that get me every time when someone does that?!

Blanc: Forget about that now! After that dumbass!!

For most of the day, the CPUs had chased me around the school while I protected the tape I wanted to protect. When I had the chance after finding a secluded place, I sent the tape to my inventory for safe keeping. Even when the CPUs found me, they knew I wouldn't give the tape up no matter what happened to me. So, the CPUs did what they set out to do and beat the literal crap out of me for two hours that day as it would then take three hours to heal up from those wounds.

Five hours later...

Time: Evening.

After the girls were done beating me up and got their own type of payback. The main event everyone was waiting for finally arrived. It was the beauty pageant that each female from their respective classrooms will get up on the stage to show off what they got and see who would win. Even though I was one of the people that would cheer Noire on. For me, I was personally rooting for her because she was someone I love. I found my mom, (F/n) and Emma who were with Vert, Blanc and Neptune as I head to their location.

(Y/n): Hey...

(F/n): Hey dude. Feeling better from the beat down you got?

I cringe at the mention of that memory, for it was still fresh in my mind from the damage the CPUs gave me.

(Y/n): Personal warning my friend: Never make them your enemy. No matter what.

(F/n): Yikes... That bad?

(Y/n): When you have four angry girls hitting you... You don't forget the terror...

Neptune: Hmph! Well I say you deserved it lover boy!

I gave Neptune a look based on what she said and answered her back.

(Y/n): I wouldn't have had to do that if you and Noire didn't humiliate me in the first place with the Dogoo. Last time when I was heading to Vert's place, I saw humanoid versions of Dogoo that were male and female. That's my nightmare come to life after the Dogoo incident.

Vert: Oh? You mean Dogoo Man and Dogoo Lady? No no. They're actually good friends with S-Sha and with most of us after getting to know them better. They wouldn't hurt anyone that wasn't a threat.

(Y/n): Yeah, well it'll be tougher for me after what Neptune and Noire put me through...

Blanc: Don't worry about them (Y/n). We promise those two won't hurt you.

I sighed at that notion as the light went out. The pageant must be starting soon from what I can sense with all our eyes focused at the stage.

Emma: I hope Noire does okay.

(F/n): You think she can?

(Y/n): It isn't a matter of thinking you two, I KNOW she can. No doubt about it.

My friends look at me as I had my arms crossed and a smile on my face. If anyone can outshine someone, it was Noire for sure. Then a light lit up as it showed a female on the stage. She seemed to be the announcer for the beauty pageant.

Female announcer: Hello everyone! How are you enjoying the festivities this year?

The crowd made a sound that sounded like they were having fun. My friends and myself could agree that this was fun today as well.

Female announcer: Glad to hear everyone is enjoying today as much as I am! So let's cut the chit chat and get on with this beauty pageant everyone has been waiting for. Up first...

The pageant had begun as we had seen some girls in beautiful dresses and gave a demonstration of a special talent they could do. Though none of them were the one I was waiting for.

Female announcer: Up next, she's a transfer student who just joined recently in the class of 2-C. Please give your attention to Noire!

When I heard Noire being called, I looked straight ahead and my eyes locked onto Noire right away. I had felt like the world had disappeared as Noire was the only person I could see at the moment. Noire had her hair up in the twin pony tails with a new pair of blue ribbons. She had on a necklace that had beads and a few that looked like flowers. What captivated me more was her dress as it was of a dark blue with some black details placed on the dress. She had another material that looked like it was see through as I could see her skin slightly underneath it. The black fabric was wrapped slightly around her arms and tied around her waist with a black bow to go with it. She had a pair of stockings on with a pair of black heels to go with her dress. Just looking at her, made my heart skip a beat and blush from how beautiful she looked.

(A/N): Pay no attention to Neptune or the tiara. Everything else in the description about Noire above should match with the picture down below.

Noire: Hello everyone.

With those two words everyone was in an uproar with the dress Noire was wearing. I could see Noire was embarrassed slightly until I saw her looking straight at me. Giving her a smile and a thumbs up from a distance, she regained her composer and give a smile that would melt hearts quickly.

Female announcer: My, my Noire! What a lovely dress you're wearing!

Noire: Thank you Ms. announcer.

Female announcer: So, tell us. Why are you up on this stage today?

I saw Noire take a deep breath as if collecting herself and steeling her nerves to answer the question asked.

Noire: I'm up on this stage, to represent my class of 2-C because many students in my class believed I was the perfect choice for this. But I'm up here mostly because a few people that are my friends believe in me very much that I can do this.

I smiled at Noire's answer as it was basically true. I was the one believing in her the most due to my connection with Noire.

Female announcer: So, care to tell us what your special talent is?

Noire: Well, it's hard to explain, but the dress I have on is something I made just recently for today. Including the clothes that my friends and myself performed today earlier for our comedy act.

Female announcer: Really?! But the clothes! They looked like they came from a fashion designer!

Some people in the crowd were whispering about Noire's talent. Noire had a natural talent making clothes from what I learned back in Hyper dimension. If my combat clothes were damaged, she would help patch them up as if they were never damaged in the first place.

Noire: I've had a lot of practice when I had the time to do it actually...

Female announcer: Well, no matter what, you did a good job making that dress of yours for today.

Noire: Thank you.

With that being said, Noire's turn was over and the pageant continued. When all was said and done, the voting commenced. Many people were in the same room with us at the time as each of them had an idea on who to vote for. My vote was obviously Noire as it was the same for my friends. After everyone voted, there was a ten minute wait period to count the votes. I was currently standing with my friends and with my mother.

Vert: Noire's dress came out good for the pageant. Don't you agree?

(Y/n): Don't need to tell me. I've seen all I need to know. Hell even the other students think that too. But what I wonder is, when did Noire make the dress? I never saw her working on it...

Blanc: That's because Noire wanted to surprise you for today.

(Y/n): Surprise me??

Neptune: Yeah. Noire asked us to help keep the dress a secret so that you didn't see it before the pageant. To be honest, it was fun acting as a lookout.

I looked at the stage to see Noire standing with the other students in the pageant waiting for the results. When she saw me looking at her, I could see a blush forming on her cheeks as she smiled and waved to me. I returned the smile and waved slightly, until my eyes started to burn somewhat. I closed my eyes and rubbed them to try and get rid of the pain. When I reopened them and looked to where Noire was, there was someone else standing in her place. By someone... I mean the girl I've been seeing in my dreams... Ivory... I groaned as I rubbed my eyes more from the stinging pain I was feeling. I felt a hand touch my shoulder and heard my mother's voice.

Iris: (Y/n)? Are you okay?

(Y/n): Y-Yeah... I'm f-fine mom... my eyes are burning slightly is all... Ugh...

After the pain is gone, I look back to where Ivory used to be as Noire was back in my sights. I was in a cold sweat from that happening.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) What the hell is going on...??

My thoughts are interrupted, as the audience gave a cheer to see the announcer return with an envelope in her hand.

Female announcer: Alright! The votes are in! Now, let's see who is the winner of our lovely beauty pageant! Our lucky lady is...

My heart was taking deep beats due to me being nervous about what the results were. Time seemed to slow down as I watched the envelop open up. The lights then turned off, as I was held in suspense. When they came back on, the light was shining down on Noire.

Female announcer: Noire from class 2-C!

I could hear a lot of clapping and cheering from the audience and including my friends. I could see that Noire was smiling towards me as I gave a thumbs up and a smile of my own back to her.

Emma: Come on! Let's go up there and congratulate Noire for winning.

(Y/n): Already planned on doing that one Emma.

We were about to head on over to where Noire was, until the lights went dark and it was pitch black.

(F/n): Huh?! Why did the lights go out again?!

When the lights came back on, the pageant ladies were gone, including Noire as the student counsel was about to announce another event. The banner read "Mr. Lucky Man."

Student Counsel Leader: Okay you sorry saps, listen up! Like a certain event some years before, we are going to hold a race! Grand prize? The chance to crown the beauty pageant winner and earn themselves the first dance with her! Get your running shoes on boys and get outside!

I couldn't believe what I was hearing right now. Noire was being used as a motivation to race in a game to crown and get the first dance with her. With someone I love... I clenched my fist at this as I turned around to head to where the event is. I could hear some foot steps following me as I looked to see my friends and my mom following me.

(F/n): Gonna take the challenge huh?

(Y/n): Yup.

Emma: Even with the numbers against you?

(Y/n): Definitely.

Neptune: And there's no way of changing your mind?

(Y/n): Correct.

Iris: So, what do you have to say for this son?

My mother asked me that as I stopped walking and looked back at them with one eye as I had only three words for what I was about to do. I could see the smirk on my mother's face knowing what I was about to say.

(Y/n): Bring it on.

Third person view.

Location: Outside Ohashi High.

(Y/n) was outside with the other male students as some of them were stretching to get ready to run for the race. (Y/n) was somewhere in the middle of the large crowd trying to stretch his arms and legs out. Until someone tripped him up to fall on the ground. When (Y/n) looked up, he could see Johnathan giving him a shit eating grin with some of John's men behind him. If there was one person (Y/n) wasn't going to let being near someone he loves, it was Johnathan. (Y/n) got back up as he looked at Johnathan and his goons.

Johnathan: So (L/n), you think you have a chance at all of winning this?

(Y/n): I don't think I have a chance. I KNOW I will win this John. I won't let you touch Noire.

Johnathan looked at (Y/n) and laughed at his attempt to threaten John. John's goons joined in after as (Y/n) glared at them.

(Y/n): Laugh all you want. I'm determined to win this.

John stopped laughing and got up in (Y/n)'s face and glared back at him.

Johnathan: Listen here, you little punk. You will lose this race. There is no "ifs" or "buts." I will dance with that girl, even if I have to take you out of the race.

(Y/n): Go ahead and try then. You're nothing but a coward anyway.

John became outraged and as (Y/n) turned around and walked away from Johnathan. If what John said to be true, (Y/n) will be expecting resistance against him to keep him from winning the race. (Y/n) had a glaring look that scared some of the other male students around him.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) Come all that try to get in my way... If anyone is winning this thing to be with Noire, it will be me damn it.

The Student Counsel leader arrived outside to give the instructions for the race by saying it over megaphone.

Student Counsel Leader: Alright! Listen up! You will be racing around the school to the back where the track field is! There, you will continue to follow around the track field and cross the finish line! As for rules, there's just one: There are no rules! Do what you must to win the race no matter what!

With that being said, the Student Counsel Leader pulled out a pop gun as the means to signal them. When they pull the trigger, it makes a loud popping sound. Every person in the race kicks off of their starting foot and begins running. In the first ten seconds of the race, (Y/n) was pulled back and knocked down by Johnathan as he rushed ahead. Two of John's goons got in (Y/n)'s way to keep him from advancing. (Y/n) got up and glared at them.

(Y/n): Get out of my way!

Goon 1: Like that will happen.

Goon 2: Orders from our boss. You are not to get through.

Using quick feet, (Y/n) pivoted one side to the other with the goons following. Though, (Y/n) wasn't going to go around them, he had a different idea. Using the chance he then shot his arms forward and spread his arms out quickly to move the two goons aside and ran forward. Upon making a couple turns, (Y/n) can see up ahead that the runners were being blocked from continuing the race.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) If I don't get through this crowd, then...!

The thought of Johnathan reaching the finish line made (Y/n) mad and look around while approaching the blockade. Looking up to the right, there was a structure that acted as a cover from the rain, but was perfect for something different. Using his training, (Y/n) shifted his running to approach the school wall and run along it. (Y/n) then pushed off to land on top of a structure on the other side of the gate. Getting a long clear path, (Y/n) began to run along it quickly. When (Y/n) reached the end, he jumped off and two of John's goons could be seen holding the students back.

(Y/n): So long suckers! I'll be sure to say thanks to Johnathan.

Goon 3: How the hell?!

Goon 4: John isn't going to be happy...

Continuing on his way, (Y/n) was running to hurry and catch up to where Johnathan was. Upon turning the corner, he could see Johnathan heading to the track field to begin making the final sprint.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) He will not win this!

Picking up the pace, (Y/n) started sprinting and could see a crowd at the track field. He looked over and saw his friends, the CPUs and his mom who noticed (Y/n) had arrived. His friends and his mother had begun to cheer (Y/n) on. (Y/n) begins running the track field and catches up to Johnathan in the process.

(Y/n): Hey, Johnny boy.

Johnathan: What in the?! How the hell did you catch up?!

(Y/n): I told you already. I won't let you win this race! I'm determined to win this!

Johnathan: We'll see about that!

Johnathan tries shifting his weight to push (Y/n) aside, but (Y/n) fights back and does the same.

(Y/n): There is no way I'm letting someone like you win this race! You pompous jerk!!

Upon reaching the turn, (Y/n) and John were still shoulder to shoulder. Both trying to out push the other as the finish line was ahead of them.

Johnathan: Just give up!

(Y/n): I've told you before! I'm not letting you win this race! So here's a surprise for ya! A prize for second place!

Johnathan: Huh?!

Swinging his leg, (Y/n) trips Johnathan up and causes him to fall to the ground. (Y/n) continued to run forward as he heard Johnathan yelling in rage at the turn of events against him. By the time Johnathan had recovered, (Y/n) was at the finish line and crossed it. With that, (Y/n) had won the race, even if the odds had been against him. (Y/n) was panting at this point from how the race went to the conclusion of winning the race. (Y/n) tries to catch his breath as someone was holding a tiara out for (Y/n) to grab. As the rule pertained, the winner did get to crown the beauty pageant winner. Taking the tiara softly in his hands, (Y/n) brought it over to Noire. When their eyes met, Noire had a blush on her cheeks and looked down in embarrassment. (Y/n) chuckled as he placed the tiara on Noire's head.

(Y/n): Now with that tiara on Noire, you really do look like a princess. *chuckles*

Noire blushed harder at (Y/n) saying that and was about to yell at him, but decided on not doing that as she turned her head to the side.

Noire: Stop saying something like that... Idiot...

(Y/n) offered his hand out to Noire to take his as Noire notices. Noire forms a small smile at this and was about to take (Y/n)'s hand, but (Y/n) gets pulled back and forced to turn around. The person doing this, was none other than Johnathan. In a quick succession, Johnathan punched (Y/n) in the gut and kicked (Y/n) a couple yards away to the middle of the track field. (Y/n) was caught off guard from the surprise as he got up slowly on his feet to recover. Johnathan was pissed from what happened just recently and kicked (Y/n) in the face. This knocked (Y/n) back down to the ground with him holding his face in pain.

Johnathan: You piece of shit! How dare you knock me down like that?!

(Y/n) chuckled at this and looked up at Johnathan.

(Y/n): To be fair, you attacked me from the start of the race. It was you and your goons against me on the race track. So, you had an advantage, but not enough to stop me I'm afraid.

Johnathan had gotten furious at this point and snapped his fingers. Four of John's goons went over and picked (Y/n) up by his arms and shoulders, while keeping (Y/n) on his knees. While the goons held (Y/n) in place, John walked up to them cracking his knuckles.

(Y/n): Really? You need assistance from your goons just to beat little ole me up? You call me a coward by not fighting back and yet I beat your butts in the race with wits alone. Are you sure you're not compensating for something or just that big of a chicken?

Getting close enough, Johnathan began punching left and right at (Y/n)'s face. Each punch made began to leave more of a bruise or cause some blood to be shed on (Y/n). This led to some kicks at (Y/n)'s chest and cough up some blood in the process. Even though (Y/n) was in a defenseless position, he looked up at Johnathan with a smirk.

Johnathan: Why do you not submit damn it?!

(Y/n): *chuckles* If I did that, then I wouldn't be able to see you get angry dumbass. Seeing you not get what you want brings a smile to my face any day.

Johnathan became furious and gripped (Y/n)'s throat and began choking him. (Y/n) began to struggle, but couldn't move his arms due to being held by John's goons.

Johnathan: You've pissed me off for the last time (L/n)! I'm ending this!

(Y/n) struggled further as John's grip tightened on (Y/n)'s neck. With cutting off air for (Y/n) to breathe, (Y/n) was becoming weaker by the second. Though the sound of a pair of feet were heading to where (Y/n) was. John got punched in the face and knocked over to the side, allowing (Y/n) to take in deep breaths of air again. The person that came to save (Y/n), was Noire as she had taken off her heels. This worried (Y/n) for Noire's own safety after he was able to catch his breath.

(Y/n): Noire, what are you doing?!

Noire: What does it look like you idiot!? I wasn't going to just sit by while you were getting beaten and choked by Johnathan!

Yelling was heard as (Y/n) and Noire looked over to where Johnathan was. Johnathan had a look of rage on his face and got up.

Johnathan: You bitch! How dare you punch me!?

Noire: Do I really need a reason to tell you? You know what you were just doing a minute ago. I wasn't going to just standby as (Y/n) got beaten up by you again!

Johnathan: Then you'll get the same treatment then for interrupting me.

Johnathan began walking towards where Noire was, while (Y/n) was trying to break free from the grip of Johnathan's goons.

(Y/n): No! Stop it! You're problem is with me Johnathan! Leave her out of this!!

Johnathan smirked and turned to (Y/n) while walking towards Noire.

Johnathan: Don't worry (L/n), you'll still feel pain. But the pain is seeing your friend get hurt.

This made (Y/n) go into a cold sweat and began to struggle even more. With Johnathan nearing Noire, she got into a simple combat stance. Johnathan found this amusing and laughed at this.

Johnathan: You really plan on fighting me? You got some spirit there girly. To bad I'll have to break it.

Noire: I'm not afraid of you. All you are is a coward if you need others to hold (Y/n) down to where he's defenseless.

Being called a coward again made Johnathan pissed off as he charged in towards Noire. Johnathan threw a couple punches towards Noire, but her combat experience helped her dodge the punches and sidesteps to get behind Johnathan. Johnathan does a backhand swing in an attempt to hit Noire, but ducks under it to deliver a punch to Johnathan's chest. The punch caused John to take a few steps backwards as he growled from the punch made to him.

Noire: Is that all you got? If so, then give up. All you're doing at this point is embarrassing yourself.

Johnathan: *growls* I'm going to make you pay for insulting me like this!

Noire: Jeez, can all you do is just yell at me? How pathetic can you even get??

Johnathan began charging in towards Noire again and threw a few punches at Noire. Noire dodges each punch and throws one back, but Johnathan blocks it to the side and lifts his leg up to try and kick Noire in the head. Noire lifts her arms up to try and block the kick, but it was a feint attack as Johnathan shifted his leg to aim at Noire's leg. The attack connects to Noire as this causes her to go down onto one knee. John wasn't done with Noire as he takes her arm and lift her up and does a few gut punches to her. Noire coughs up some spit from the punches connecting to her while (Y/n) was beginning to worry more for Noire's safety.

(Y/n): Noire!! Johnathan, stop this right now! Please!!

Johnathan began to laugh as he then hit Noire in the face two times and then deliver his knee to her gut. The attack forces Noire to go down on her knees and hold her stomach. While (Y/n) was trying to break free from Johnathan's goons, his eyes began to burn again like before. Where Noire should have been at, she was replaced with Ivory instead. The area began to dissolve around (Y/n) as it was replaced with a forest scenery with Johnathan and his men looking like a group of assassins. Seeing the assassin grip Ivory's hair and pull on it, Ivory let a yell of pain out from it. This sent a pulse through (Y/n)'s head as he got a headache feel from it. The pulse happens in a set of intervals of four seconds each, each one being stronger than the last.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) This... This feeling...! I've felt this before...! N-No...! N-Not again...!

As each pulse got stronger, (Y/n) was beginning to yell out of pain for what was happening to him. Thrashing about to try and end this pain, but couldn't find a way. When the scenery died around him, everything was back to the way it was, but (Y/n) could see Johnathan begin to choke Noire. Noire was trying to break free from Johnathan's hold on her, but Johnathan only tightened his grip on her neck more.

Johnathan: You shouldn't have messed with me girly. Now, you'll be taking a nice nap... Forever.

In a last effort to try and say something, Noire looked over towards (Y/n) and looked him in the eyes.

Noire: (Y/n)...

With Noire saying that, she had passed out from the lack of air. This had sent a huge pulse through (Y/n) to where the pain in his head was unbearable anymore. This caused (Y/n) to screamed to the top of his lungs and then went limp. John's goons held (Y/n) up by his arms to keep him from falling down. Everyone at the track field looked to where (Y/n) was and worried about him. More importantly (Y/n)'s mother, Iris was more worried for what was coming. One of the goons decide to take a look at (Y/n) and went in front of him as Johnathan dropped Noire onto her back. The goon lifted up (Y/n)'s head as (Y/n)'s eyes were closed.

Johnathan: Heh... What a stupid loser. Passing out of shock for this bitch... What a bunch of shit.

(Y/n)'s eyes then opened up to reveal a red glow in them as (Y/n)'s face shifted to that of an angry look that could kill someone. The crystal in (Y/n)'s shirt began to shift to a black color slowly. This surprised the goon looking at (Y/n)'s face as he became scared. The feeling in the air could be felt as menacing at the moment.

(Y/n) (Rage state): Get off...

Goon 1: Huh?!

(Y/n) (Rage state): Get off me...!

Goon 2: John! We have a problem!!

Johnathan: What the hell do you-

https://youtu.be/NFjE5A4UAJI

With one of the goons not holding (Y/n)'s right arm, (Y/n) delivered an elbow strike to the goon to his right and delivered a straight punch to the goon in front of him.

(Y/n) (Rage state): I said: Get the hell off of me, you stupid bastards!!

Getting onto his feet, (Y/n) turned around to his left and punched the goon holding his shoulder and then kick the other goon holding (Y/n)'s left arm. This knocked the two goons away from (Y/n) as one jumped onto his back. Iris was worried for what was going to happen as she yelled out.

Iris: You idiot! Get away from my son this instant! You're not safe!!

Goon 1: Huh?!

The goon looked down to (Y/n), while (Y/n) slowly turned his head toward the goon. (Y/n) was glaring at the goon on his back and grabbed him by the hair. (Y/n) tossed the goon over his shoulder and slammed him into the ground. After taking care of the goons, (Y/n) faced toward Johnathan and began to walk over to Johnathan.

(Y/n) (Rage state): JOHNATHAN!!!

Johnathan looked at (Y/n) as he saw the glowing red eyes (Y/n) had. Johnathan puts his hand in his pockets and turned towards (Y/n) with a serious look on his face.

Johnathan: So, you're finally ready to fight me?

(Y/n) (Rage state): Heh... Fight you? What the hell do you even mean you bastard? All you did was attack me with a crowd of nobodies who are scum. Although, you're lower than scum at this point, you piece of shit!!

Johnathan: Ha. I may be scum, but what are you going to do- Urk!!

In the instant, (Y/n) had closed the gap on Johnathan and punched him in the face and knocked him a few feet away from him. (Y/n) continued to walk toward Johnathan who had a bloody nose from the punch made to him, got up quickly and got into a stance. (Y/n) stopped walking towards Johnathan and began to laugh quietly at first and then laughed louder at what he was seeing.

(Y/n) (Rage state): You think you can fight against me as you are right now? You really must be the idiot here instead with the brains you have Johnathan.

Johnathan: Shut the hell up!

Johnathan then charged towards (Y/n) and threw a few punches at (Y/n). Though (Y/n) dodged the punches with ease with a smirk on his face. When (Y/n) dodged the third punch he delivered a backhand swing to Johnathan's face and knocked him down to the ground. Johnathan gets back up, spits some blood out of his mouth and got into another stance again. (Y/n) watched Johnathan as he facepalmed seeing Johnathan even try to fight back and sighed at this.

(Y/n) (Rage state): Good grief... You really must be an idiot if you REALLY think you can do anything to me. All you do is just boast with nothing to show for it... Quite shameful to be doing this to you John.

Johnathan: Shut up you bastard!

Johnathan charged in towards (Y/n), while (Y/n) just stood there with his hands in his pockets. When Johnathan got close enough, he delivered a hard punch at (Y/n)'s face with a left hook and smiled.

Johnathan: Ha! How do you like that!? H-Huh?!

With John's fist connected to (Y/n)'s face, (Y/n)'s head hardly shifted to the left at all. This sent a chill down Johnathan's spine seeing (Y/n) glare at him with the glowing red eyes (Y/n) sent John's way.

(Y/n) (Rage state): You done yet? That barely even tickled. All you basically did was gave me a love tap.

Johnathan: T-That's not right...! My punches always affected you...! Why now...?

(Y/n) (Rage state): You really want to know? Fine...

(Y/n) took his right hand out of his pocket to make a fist. (Y/n) pulled his fist back and then delivered it to Johnathan's gut. Johnathan coughed up some blood from the attack made to him and held his stomach from the pain he felt, going down onto his knees.

(Y/n) (Rage state): I always held back with what I was taught from my mother because I know I could beat the shit out of you. Yet you attacked my friends, you attacked my mother, you attacked me when I couldn't defend myself and now you hurt someone I love... There's no amount of money in the world you can pay back for the damages you caused to those close to me.

Johnathan: The hell are you saying...?!

(Y/n): What I'm saying is, you've really pissed me off!!

(Y/n) picked Johnathan up and delivered a punch to Johnathan's chest, then arm, leg and face. Johnathan yelled in pain from the hits delivered to him.

(Y/n): ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!

(Y/n) yelled as he then sent series of punches all over Johnathan's body in quick succession to damage Johnathan and even his pride. To finish it off, (Y/n) delivered an uppercut that knocked Johnathan into the air to have Johnathan land hard on his back. After that was done, (Y/n) took a notepad from his pocket with a pen and wrote something down and proceeded to rip it off.

(Y/n) (Rage state): Here's your receipt. You can keep the frickin change, ya bastard.

(Y/n) tossed the piece of paper to have it float down to Johnathan. On the note that landed next to Johnathan, it read: "(Y/n) (L/n)." (Y/n) walked over to Noire and lifted her up and shook slightly. At this point, all he could care to think about was Noire's own safety with what happened. Tears began to form in (Y/n)'s eyes seeing Noire like this being hurt.

(Y/n) (Rage state): Noire...? Are you okay...? Please... wake up...

Opening her eyes slightly Noire regained her senses slowly and saw (Y/n) was about to cry with the red glow in his eyes. Noire brought her hand up to (Y/n)'s cheek and rubbed it softly. The cheek she rubbed was the one with the scars.

Noire: I'm okay now (Y/n)... Please... Don't cry... Try to calm down now... For me...?

Hearing Noire's words and feeling her soft touch, (Y/n) began to flutter his eyes with the red glow dying down in them. (Y/n) then held his hand to his head and reopened them to look at Noire and then around him. Noire could see the crystal was beginning to shift back to being blue and sighed at this.

Noire: (Thoughts) At least (Y/n) is going back to normal again... If something like this continued longer... I don't know what would have happened...

(Y/n): N-Noire...? What happened...? H-How did I...?

Noire: Don't worry about that right now... Our friends will probably explain later...

(Y/n): O-Okay...

(Y/n) helped Noire up and supported her weight as he helped carry her over to where his friends were. (Y/n) helped Noire sit down at the chair and took a few steps back. (Y/n) was breathing hard at this point seeing Noire like this and then looking toward the setting sun. (Y/n)'s head still hurts from what happened to him as a few images course through his head at the moment. One of Ivory in a dress, dancing with Ivory, hearing people scream with explosions in the background and then seeing an image of a giant floating monster with one eye. The monster had a color scheme of orange and purple with four arms and four legs as it looked down at (Y/n). Seeing the images made (Y/n) put both his hands to his head from the pain. When he couldn't take it anymore, (Y/n) screamed out in agony. From the intense pain (Y/n) had felt, he had passed out from the experience and fell to the ground hard.

Iris: (Y/n)!!

Iris ran over to (Y/n) and lifted him up to hold him close with the others following behind Iris. (Y/n) looked to be in a lot of pain as he twisted and turned, groaning in pain while breathing erratically. Getting her cellphone out, Iris called home as Mr. (L/n) picked up the phone.

Mr. (L/n) (Cellphone): Hello?

Iris: Honey! Get the car over here, now!!

Mr. (L/n) (Cellphone): W-Why?! What's-?!

Iris: (Y/n) passed out in shock! It's happened again!

The CPUs, (F/n) and Emma looked at each other when Iris said that as Neptune placed a hand on Iris's shoulder.

Neptune: Iris... What do you mean by... "again...?"

Iris froze hearing Neptune's words and stood up to head to the front entrance, carrying (Y/n) in her arms. The others began to follow Iris as it was Noire's turn to talk.

Noire: We can't help (Y/n) if we don't know what's going on Iris! This is the second time we've seen (Y/n) go berserk! What is happening to him?!

Iris: It may have happened twice for you, but to my family, it's happened FOUR times now...

This made the others freeze and become shocked hearing this coming from Iris.

Blanc: Four...? You mean...?

Iris stopped and looked back towards the others. In her eyes, looked of worry and sadness.

Iris: Everything will be explained... There are somethings... You all don't know of what happened in our family...

As Mr. (L/n) finally arrived with the car, he opened the door and Iris gently put (Y/n) in the car and the others got in as well. With everyone in the car, Mr. (L/n) began to drive the car again, making their way to the (L/n) residence with the sun sinking below the horizon.

To be continued...
