Arc 1-Epilogue: Your place is Shinjuku Academy.

The dream always inside my head I want to know more about it but I know one thing, the more I know about the more pain I get. In the end, I know I will die if I know the true, I can sense the dagger at my throat and the gun aim at my head. No matter how many reflection I create I can't stop my ending and no one there, Shiro, Kengo, Ryota, Sousuke, no one there to help me, guess I am alone with this nightmare. The only stay with me is this nightmare, no one else, I should be alone so I won't drag anyone with me, but I still desire to have friends, but I think back to become a Tokyo Wanderer again. So I write a letter then just sneek out and go, I guess I should carefully deceive everyone but the rule not allow me to use sacred artifact if there is no battle so I think I just leave.

After sneek out the Academy the first thing to get is money right ? I have about 4 million yen so it means 35 thousand dollar, don't ask why I have that much money, I am just a talented child... Well I get a lot when I wandering in Tokyo for 2 years and use my Sacred Artifact in the battle to steal for people money, change people conception for my own, I am a bad child but who pay much attention about that. First place to get money without leaving a trace I guess attend Ikebureko guild and get some fortune then go to Minato to throw away some boredom.

"So this punk again, if you don't want any trouble you can stay away."

"Battle me I think you can be an interesting toy and can you show me Ikebureko guild, I think I am really bored right now."

"This time, no one will protect you now."

They attack me but all the image of me shatter and attack them back, my sacred artifact can deceive the vision of the other so they just break a bunch of glass then I stab them with my rapier I think one of them die for real but I need a person to take me to Ikebureko guild so the other two are slice with glass shard. After the battle they lead me to Ikebureko guild for real actually it look like a cinema more than a guild. And wait for me at the front door is a... well cute little puppy actually not really small he is pretty big.

"Who are you? Intruder! Garm attack!"

"Annoying dog, you can shut yourself up or I can make you do it yourself."

I just gather all glass pieces to product a simple sword, that dog charge in and hit itself with it.

"Yeowowow!! Garm lost! Rematch"

"But you lost right so just let's me through. I can do a rematch but your life won't be remain. But you are really good."

"Hehehe. Praise Garm? You strong. Strong may pass. Name tell Garm name!"

"Raku."

"Raku! Garm remember!"

"Apologies for the interruption, but I wish to welcome you to the Ikebukuro Colosseum. And Garm your next guess is here."

A blue Lionman butler appear, his shape is large but in those clothes he look more graceful than brutal or just good at hiding his killing intent.

"Yes you must overheard the conversation but let's me represent again I'm Raku, the last name is not a problem and your name please."

"A weird child go to a guild with grace and act not like a normal gladiator. What is your purpose ?"

"Well, you stay cold till the end so I guess I have to expose myself right ? I am here for a request to join Ikebukuro guild. You can say I am dying in boredom right now."

"A weird request but I have to introduce myself I'm Snow, a servant to the master of Ikubukero guild. I think you know how our guild work. You need an introduction."

"How about you are the one who give me an introduction."

"So you think about challenge me ?"

"I say you are the one who give me the introduction, do it yourself or do it with motivation that is your way of decision."

"This is Ikebukuro, even for a servant I suggest to solve this by force."

The battle zone open before the cinema, Snow still wear the same clothes but around him is three chakrams by the shape it should be dharmacakra so his power based on Buddha. But after all, even his rule is Buddha himself the rank still lower than mine, Buddha create belief and my rule allow me to twist that belief. So three times you die if I fail the memories stay in mind for eternity.

"I won't mind you are just a random person after all."

"A random person, what a good way of expression, you can kill me when you stop breaking the glass, don't you feel pain, get pierce by thousand pieces of glass ? I guess you not normal human so your better at recovery."

"Caught you now. 

Role of the Servant

Rule of Trikaya

Engrave my name unto thee

Ashtamangala"

The three chakrams start to rampage all the illusion and finally I caught in one attack, it almost lose but one voice whisper to me.

"Unleash me, your pain, your anger, your evil. You will lose if you not do that, listen to me, I am you, you can trust me. You don't want to experience your dead at least three times right ?"

"How can I trust you."

"Because you are not always alone. I always stay right next to you. You know the word, he is coming so be quick."

"My apologies, but it is my job and you need to learn a lesson for put yourself over the line."

"I trust you and release you Hige."

"Don't worry you are not alone. So Snow I think you should really write a will right now. You can't get hurt by small pieces how about a big chunk."

All I can do is watch, Hige took control over my body by let me watch his performance, what is his intention. But all I can see is more mirror and his movement is so fast that he can dogde all of the attack and counter back Snow. 

"Remember this Raku you are not alone, I am here with you always here with you, so this victory this is our victory, the proof that you are not alone."

The chakram miss Hige and that moment a counter fencing technique, Hige focus all of his glass pieces in the air and form a sword then pierce Snow.

"So I lose, you are not some random person but in that battle I sense someone else, someone else from you."

"Deary, I guess you look too much in the mirror that all."

So I go with Snow to meet Claude or I can say Ikebukuro guild's master, the part of join the guild went really well I think I have to thank Snow after this. But... who was him, he says he always stays by my side but I just can't stop think about him. So I stay around Ikebukuro guild for 1 week to make enough money then I leave. Before depart I carefully erase their memory actually since the moment I go to the front of Ikebukuro guild that area already become a battle zone. So I keep wandering and defeat as much App user I met and all the night I close my eye I want to find that memory but all lead to aimless. 

The third weeks since the Shinjuku incident and I still wandering aimlessly but all I can do is to secure the group is safe and the academy is safe, I don't want anyone to drown in sorrow like I do.

"Raku ?"

"Do I know you ?"

"I think a song for you will rewind something."

All I heard is a song then my consciousness is gone, all I heard when I still remain consciousness is:

"Never think you are alone, your new friend, they will stay by your side. I am Kakumei, we will meet again."

When I open my eyes, I realize myself lying on a futon in Mr Mononobe's room and next to me are Shiro, Sousuke, Ryota, Kengo and Moritaka too.

"My head..."

"I see you have awaken."

Mr Mononoke come out from the another room, on his hand are tea and cookies. So after that song I guess I passed out but Kakumei, that name is so familiar I have heard it before and I am sure he is not the illusion.

"So now I think I should scold you but you do everything with a reason and it usually bring good result, so what is your reason now ?"

"It would be the best for me to be alone, that is the best for everyone, there is something I should take alone, I don't want anyone close to me in pain, so I walk away."

"Remember the the word I speak to you all, you are a kid so you have to have fun, let us adults pay the bill."

"But I don't want to live as a burden to the others, I don't want anyone to get hurt because of me."

"You have pride but sometime just let the other bear the pain with you, let me go with you after all I am your father, you can trust me to help you."

And since that moment I understand a fact, I am not alone after all, I am have other stay by my side and why do I have to care about my past, people stay with me in the future so the past have no meaning now. 

"Mr Mononobe, are you dating anyone ?"

"That is went over the topic and you know I can get fired if I have a relationship with a student."

"How about the future when I graduate ?"

"Then we should leave that until you are graduate, but are you sure you are fine with a old man like me."

"I never consider age to be a problem and I have affection to you because of your acts. But I guess I should back to the dorm after all three week is a long period of time."

"Anyway, Raku."

"Yes."

"Welcome home."

"I'm back home."

Now I really believe i am not alone at least not in this tokyo. I have person i can trust, I have a person I can count on.

"We was worried you know that."

"Don't run away again."

Of course no this is my home and i will never leave.
