Closure

After those words were uttered. I decided to give myself a quick check. I wielded the natural energies from the water to form a water mirror in front of me. There I saw myself standing perfectly at 172 cm, nothing really changed besides my physic becoming leaner than it already was. Well, something did change, my original Brown eyes changed into ink black.

Curious at my now changed eyes. I decided to check the powers that I got from grandpa Hagoromo. Wanting it to form into a Sharingan as grandpa called it my eyes suddenly turned scarlet red with 3 magatamas rotating in a perfect circle. After doing so I suddenly found my vision changed, there I saw the energies of the world, of this world. One that is vastly different than the energies that I was using. No not different but mixed, different energies that are mixed with different sources of energy. Blue, White, Black and many more.

'Fascinating, this world holds so much more secrets than I thought.'

Curious to use the eye that grandpa Hagoromo always has activated I willed my Sharingan to turn into the Rinnegan. Only this time the reflection shows an entirely different eye than what grandpa Hagoromo usually has. My eyes still contain the usual ripple pattern, the only difference was there are magatamas that looked like fire and besides the regular purple colour this time it has taken an orange-like tint resembling the sun. Curious as to what changed the eye. I remember what Grandpa then told me.

'The day you receive our powers, beware that there might be some changes with what you see in front of you, as you will be receiving powers from the four of us. That means that there will be a chance where your body will need to adapt it in its own way to make it compatible with your body and soul.'

'Well this certainly is a surprise, but a welcome one indeed.'

Deciding to end my musing about my new eyes I then disabled it. After doing so I opened the palm of my hand while using my spiritual power to pick up the cane that was lying down beside my feet. As I held it I couldn't help but remember how much beating I took using this cane before I could finally see its Shikai form. Just thinking about it brings shivers down my spine. As I reminisce about my training time with grandpa Yamamoto, I could help but sigh to myself as I will more than likely not be able to use its Shikai form in this lifetime, more so its Bankai.

Sighing to myself one more I started thinking about my last two grandpas. Grandpa Bang and Grandpa Jin. From Grandpa Bang I learned how to use his famous Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist and his Exploding Heart Release Fist. Learning the first one was easy enough while learning the Exploding Heart Release came with some odd moments. While grandpa Bang demonstrates it to me he would suddenly stop midway and sigh as he would go into his storytelling mode on how much of a troublesome man he was when he was younger. It was also one of the times when I would pay attention the most, as he would say some profound words before he continues with the demonstrations.

Wise words such as:

'If she doesn't respond to your desire... her sister you shall acquire.'

'If she makes place for someone else but you... Her sister shall take her place.'

'If she leaves you for another... there is always her sister.'

'Ah~ how I will miss your words of wisdom grandpa Bang'

Ending my train of thought in grandpa Bangs's words of wisdom, I proceeded to check my legs. After what I experienced with grandpa Jin while he teaches me Re-Taekwondo, I gained an appreciation for legs. Then Grandpa Bang's Wisdom came crashing down on me again.

'Masa~ when you finish your training with us, you will become so powerful that you might lose your way. So here are my words of wisdom, a mantra to follow in times when you are lost... THICC THIGHS SAVE LIVES! remember these words little Masa~ as this might as well save you in time of despair.' I could see grandpa Jin nodding his head as he agrees with what grandpa Bang just said.

Which I have kept in my heart as I progress my training with my other grandpas. After I finished reminiscing over what I have experienced with my grandpas. I noticed that it was already daytime, as the sun peeks over the horizon welcoming us with a new day.

There I stood in my full naked glory not knowing my clothes disappeared when I disintegrated and became a cocoon.

I took a deep breath as it finally hit me.

'I'm back!'

-------------------

Not really understanding how my clothes disappeared, I decided to solve my current predicament. My clothes. Then it hit me. I quickly used the natural energy that are surrounding me to control the energy to make my clothes. First was the pants, black and meant for school, a white collared T-shirt, and lastly a robe like what grandpa Yamamoto wears most of the time. While the back has the word '天' which means heaven and below it was a '土' which means Earth. Placing the robe on my shoulder I then continued to head towards Toudou Academy. Where I'll be officially meeting the so-called important persons my previous self placed his feelings upon.

As I was near the school I'm attending I noticed a few stares coming mainly from girls, as they greeted me.

"Good morning Takayanagi-kun!"

"Good Morning Takayanagi-Senpai~!"

"Takayanaki-san is so cool I want his babies"

'huh? I don't remember being this popular' completely ignoring whoever said the last phrase I continued my walk till I meet a 'kid' that was the Captain of the Juken Club. Beside her was a young girl with brown hair, a stark contrast to the little kids (big sister's) Silver hair.

The first one to notice me was the younger sister Aya Natsume, as she turned around her dragon's eye was completely active and she looked at me with a hint of surprise.

"Good morning Takayanagi-senpai!"

"Good Morning Aya-Chan" To which I replied like how a big brother would reply to his younger sister.

'Ho~? her dragon eyes activated by themselves? I wonder why? Is it because it felt threatened or is it reacting to my new body that harnessed natural energy naturally due to me having Sage's body? Interesting I-' I wanted to continue my mussing only for it to be interrupted by the Captain.

"Oh~? nice coat you got there Takayanagi! how are your injuries from last night's fight?"

"Why thank you~ and no worries here captain~, I'm all healed up. I should be asking you that question ~ How is your shoulder treating you?"

To which she grimaced as she remembered last night's fight.

"Ha~ well I could be better, thanks to you beating down all the goons we didn't have to worry about them"

After she said those words I proceeded to pick her up and placed her on my left shoulder where she usually perches. Grabbing the sword that she was hauling with her little body I slung it on my back as we continued walking while having small conversations.

"Why the sudden change of attire Takayanigi?"

"Well you see Captain~ I lost my clothing sometime last night, then I magically stumbled upon these clothing and robes, and voila here we are~" I replied in a joking and half-hearted matter. To which she laughed and proceeded to make fun of me for being clumsy.

"Haha~ and here I thought I was clumsy but now you lost your clothing without you knowing haha~" To which I just shrugged before I heard a small giggle beside us.

"Pffttt... Um... Sorry Senpai, but that was just funny~" Said the brown-haired girl.

I just shrugged and patted her head, and she seemed to like it as she snuggled closer to me. We continued walking as the tranquil morning atmosphere seemed to last forever, only for it to be broken by the said girl that I was patting as she dashed away from my hands towards a man with Blonde Hair. Nagi Souichirou. As Aya threw herself at him he proceeded to dodge her 'attacks' as he made his way towards us. Along with his friend Bob-

'What was his full name again? Bob? Bob what? hhmmmmmm~ Bob... Uchiha! wait no! Bob... the builder? no... Aha! Bob Makihara! that's his name! Phew, I knew I'll remember it.'

Getting out of my train of thought I then gave them a morning greeting.

"Morning you two how was your night~"

Bob replied first as Souichirou was too busy dodging 'attacks'.

"We're doing fine senpai. How about you senpai? Captain?"

"Well I'm doing quite well thank you Bob-Kun, it might be wise to start moving though as it appears like we are amassing a crowd with just us staying around like this." replied the captain that was perching on my left shoulder.

"Yeah that's a good idea, I like your new coat by the way senpai!"

"Why thank you Bob-Kun, now let's start moving, I don't want to be looked upon like some animal in a zoo any longer."

Everyone seem to agree even the two duos who were playing 'tag'. So with that, I took the lead as my coat flapped in the wind as we headed towards the school building's entrance.

As we made our way towards the entrance I couldn't help but notice a different type of giving. Hostile and wary gazes were given by different people who I assume to be from different clubs. Which was proven right by what the Captain said next.

"Bask all you want in this glory brats. It's going to get tough from here on out."

To which Nagi replied.

"Well I guess we won't be bored for a while then"

And Bob followed with a:

"Hmmm"

By the time we made it to the front entrance of the building, a teacher was waiting for us there.

"Natsume-kun… Do you have a minute?" The teacher said addressing the Captain that was perched on my shoulders.

"Good Morning Master Toudou" greeted the Captain as she was about to continue she was interrupted by Bob.

"Who the hell is this old guy? Captain?"

After he said that I elbowed him in his ribs making him clutch it.

"That right there is a master, or put simply a teacher of the school, show some respect to your elders Bob."

I then watched his grasp for air as I heard him mutter something under his breath.

'There are teachers in this school?'

Then I heard Nagi mutter with him.

'Yeah, first one I've seen...'

Sighing to myself as I try to use my brain power to understand how and why these monkeys are in school.

After that little charade with the teacher, the Captain hopped from my shoulder to Toudou-sensei's arm as they left for the teacher's room. But not before she told us not to miss today's meeting.

"You guys, We've got something important to talk about today. Don't be late for the meeting."

I gave a nod to her as the rest of the members proceed to make a 'huh?' sound. Since it wasn't really a common thing to have meetings in the Juken Club.

Waving the rest of the Club goodbye I headed to my classroom. Not really expecting any company I walked in a relaxed way toward my classroom. But from what I can sense from the movement of people and their chi. Nagi and Bob seemed to be in a bit of trouble as they were being chased by a man wielding a sword. Not really bothering about what happened to them I found my seat at the back of the classroom close to the windows.

Sitting down I couldn't help but think about the fact that I am back in the real world. I also couldn't help but be amazed at myself. Well to my previous me to be precise. To the many that are confused the previous me that was left was mostly my instinct. An instinct that was controlled by a Command grandpa Hagoromo placed upon me after they took me into my mind space to train.

This previous me managed to become strong enough to be the strongest in the Juken Club. No one knew he was that strong because he never did have a chance to go fully all out. He never met his brother, and even when he did it wasn't because he wanted to fight. It was just a long talk of me quitting the warrior's path, whatever he means by that.

Short of this was that my previous me was already a beast now that I am back at full me, efficiency in mind and body, not to mention all the powers I inherited from my grandpa(s). I can say with confidence that no one in this world can make me fight them seriously. On a small chance that there was someone… Well let's just say I could probably end it when I turn my Sharingan to my Mangekyo and even then that's just unfair… if that doesn't work then, I guess I'll just summon a meteor using my Rinnegan… And if that doesn't work then, grandpa Yamamoto's Bankai would finish it, Bankai… Zanka No Taichi… Well, when that time ever comes let's just say I will be leaving this earth by myself as no one would be able to survive the onslaught of any of my powers.

After praising how powerful I was I couldn't help but snap back to reality as I will more than likely be bored for my whole life unless I find something to amuse myself with. As the school bell rang I created a sleep mask as I decided to just sleep through whatever was happening while keeping my senses active just in case some plebs decided to mess with me, which I hope someone would.

---Maya Natsume's PoV---

After the talk with Master Toudou, I knew that the trouble with the enforcement group last night would bite me sooner than later. I just didn't expect it to be this early. Signing to myself I headed toward the Juken building. Sorting out my train of thought as I recollect all the things that happened.

'The brats are growing way faster than what I have expected… Only if they came two no one year earlier things would've been different.' getting out of her using another problem struck her.

'Takayani seemed to have changed. His demeanour changed from someone who looked like he knew martial arts, to someone who feel like a normal person.' getting out of her mussing she sighed again as she entered the Juken Club building.

Seeing the figure of her brother she couldn't help but let out another frustrated sigh.

'I've been sighing a lot lately huh'

---PoV End---

*Ding* *Dong*

When the lunch bell rang I woke up from my nap and started making my way toward the Juken Club building. When I reached the club everyone was there, the Captain waiting for me to take a seat before she announced the important announcement. One I didn't expect at all or was just too lazy to think about.

I saw her Sigh first before she opened her mouth.

"I'm being expelled from school."

"Expelled?" muttered Nagi and Aya before Nagi continued.

Maya-san then gave us her best explanation of why she was being expelled. Saying that it was the 'natural conclusion' with what happened with our conflict with the enforcement group, and appeasing us with the fact that she would stay with us until the end of the semester.

With that everyone was silenced as she told us that she didn't want to talk about it anymore and dismissed us before we missed our classes.

As everyone packed their things getting ready to leave I stood up.

"Captain, can we talk for a moment?"

"Hmm? What is Takayanaki-kun?"

"I'd just like to tell you that I will be leaving the Juken club"

"..."

After I dropped the bomb that I was leaving. It was met with an awkward silence as everyone stood there gawking as if I said something important. It was then broken by the Captain herself yelling at me.

"WHAT!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! EXPLAIN YOURSELF!"

I then gave her a nod.

"Can we talk about this in private~ Captain~?" I replied to her nonchalantly.

"Hm~ You better have a good explanation why you are doing this Takanagi, Come!" she said as I proceed to follow her kid form towards one of the rooms.

When I entered the room, I closed the door behind me. I then sat in front of Maya-san as she sat there waiting for my explanation. When I sat down, I couldn't help but smile inwardly as I felt Bob, Nagi, and Aya at the door trying to eavesdrop.

"Explain," said Maya-san in a stern voice and explain I did.

"Maya-san, do you remember the day I approached you to join the Juken dojo?"

"Of Course~ You were practically begging me to join~" she replied with a cheeky smile.

"That I did" To which I admitted.

"It must have been a shocker at first for me the younger brother of your previous lover as to suddenly asked you to let me join the Juken Dojo huh?"

I continued, to which she flinched at the mention of being my brother's previous lover. It looked like she wanted to reply but I didn't give her a chance as I continued on.

"You see, the day when my brother launched the Coup me and my dad lost everything, at that time I could barely remember what happened. But all I know is that the feeling of sadness and happiness was there. Sad because we lost our home and a brother. Happy because I could finally have a normal life one that was out of fighting and bloodshed, and quite possibly a father to finally notice me. But you see Maya-san that never happened. Not only did I lose my brother but my dad became more obsessive towards finding the 'true warrior' whatever that was." Pausing there as I try to recall what my previous self experienced, I continued on.

"You see due to that, a kid was left there all on his own to fend for himself. So he went to the one thing he didn't want to do, Fighting. And Fighting he did, so much so that he thrived in it. There he learned about your legend back in the days when the founders of the Juken Club would raze people to the ground. It was then that I decided that I needed to check on the Juken Club. There I first met you Maya-san. There and then you could say it was the hormones talking but I asked you permission to join the club, I thought back then it was but a fleeting feeling but I was wrong."

After those words were said, Maya-san eyes widened finally connecting the dots.

"But I buried it deep down since when I figured out your previous relationship with my brother, I didn't want to add another burden. So I did the next best thing. I treated this club and its members like my family. But from what I've seen these past few weeks it seems that I won't fit in anymore. You see the only thing this I(old me) was seeking was love. I didn't care what type of love it was as long as it was under the pretense of love he accepted it. But now that we have new members a different type of love bloomed, and since that love couldn't be reciprocated one way or another it will turn into something else, something more destructive. So I am asking you now Maya-san to let me leave the Juken Club, for the best of you, the members, and me."

Ending it on that note I stood up heading straight to the doors not minding the absent-minded Maya-san that was still processing what I said. With my back turned back to her I continued.

"But don't worry Maya-san. I'll only leave after the tournament ends after you finally settle grudges with my brother." Leaving it as my final words, I opened to door. There I was the rest of the Juken members pretending to not have eavesdropped on us at all. I gave them a knowing smile.

"Why haven't you guys left for class yet? The bell already rang you know"

"Haha, well you look at that it did ring silly Bob you should've reminded us~!" Said Nagi as he grabbed Bob and Aya and quickly scampered away. There being left alone I continued walking, heading towards the rooftop of the school.

---PoV Shift Maya Natsume---

There I was still processing all the things Takayanagi told me as my mind kept repeating the last words he said before he left.

'But don't worry Maya-san. I'll only leave after the tournament ends after you finally settle grudges with my brother.'

'He's basically saying I'll wait for your definite answer by then, whether I fix my relationship with Mitsuomi or I end it there, while also underlying the fact he knew what happened between me and Nagi at the training camp, so choose, huh.'

*Sigh*

I couldn't help but sigh as it seemed like I'd been blinded by my ambition this whole time not even paying attention, no not even noticing that affection he had towards me.

*Sigh*

Signing once more I couldn't help but notice how much I've been sighing lately.

'Love huh?'

Ending my train of thought I went home to clear my head.

---End---

Waking up from the nap I headed straight toward the dojo. Arriving at the dojo no one could be seen, deciding that it was the perfect place to take a nap I picked a corner and directly lay down. After a few minutes of blissful silence, all I could hear was the sound of the wind and the birds, only for it to be broken by someone entering the dojo. I knew who it was since I'd felt their movement by the time they entered the school. While keeping the sleeping mask I stood up and greeted the person.

"Hey~ Aya-Chan~ What are you doing here at this time of day?"

"Ah! Takayanagi-senpai! I didn't think you would be here."

Replied Aya with a confused and worried expression.

"What? Just because I'm quitting the club doesn't mean I'm unwelcomed here, or did you want me out of the club Aya-Chan~?" I replied to her teasing her.

"Ah! Um… No that's not what I mean, like, I thought you won't be coming for a while…" Muttered Aya in a mosquito-like voice. Had it not been for my enhanced senses I wouldn't have heard what she was saying.

"Heh~ I'm just kidding~ So that sword your carrying… Isn't that Shin-sans?" Shifting the topic to another subject I couldn't help but be curious about the sword she was holding, as I felt a presence of a spirit lingering on it.

'Fascinating, it's definitely not a Zanpakuto, but more like a cursed blade? Blessed blade? Quite Interesting~'

"You knew my big brother? Senpai?"

"Well yes I do, can't say the same for him though."

After I said those words she suddenly unsheathed the katana and twirled it a little bit. Me being the curious little cat snatched the katana mid-twirl before I held it in my hand inspecting it.

"Quite a blade this is Aya-chan, I reckon you didn't tell your sister you 'borrowed' this?" After I said it I presented the sword back to the shocked Aya.

"How did you do that Takayanagi-san?... That could've been dangerous!"

"Ma~Ma~ it's fine~, I've dabbled a bit in the art of the sword here and there. So… Why do you have your brother's sword?"

She then grabbed the sword from my hand as she sheathed it.

"I'll need to talk directly with the enforcement group and get Onee-sama's expulsion cancelled."

Saying so she turned around and headed towards the school building. Deciding to follow along as I don't have anything better to do besides take naps, and take more naps. As we were walking I couldn't help but take notice of the commotion happening in one of the classrooms.

'Nagi? Bob? And Bunshichi-san?'

When we reached the stairs I couldn't help but notice the aura's movement.

'Looks like they're fighting…'

Just when I was about to take another step forward Aya-chan suddenly fell back toward me.

"Hm~? You know I like it when girls fell for me but not in this sense you know~..."

Soon after I said those words she started breathing heavily as she looked up at my face. Removing my sleeping mask. Only for me to notice that her eyes had changed into slits.

'Dragon's eye?'

Witnessing the eyes first hand I couldn't help but activate my Sharingan to see what was wrong. Then I looked straight into her eyes. It was then I felt a pull, which I followed and then I was looking through a different perspective. A vision where Bunshichi-san was holding Nagi as he confesses his feelings for Maya.

'Well that looks like trouble to me… she saw that huh?'

Returning back to the present time I heard Aya muttering something under her breath.

"No… Don't say it…"

It was then I heard something break as her eyes looked lifeless. She then stood up and headed towards the rooftop.

Sighing to myself I followed along, pitying the girl as she didn't know what to do to her rampant feelings. Arriving at the top of the building I kept walking as I stood beside Aya-chan in the rain as she cried her eyes out. Curious at this development I couldn't help but activate my Rinnegan as I looked at the crying girl. There I saw the string of fate connecting her to Nagi and something else. Waiting for her to get it all out and she managed to find her bearings the rain seemed to stop when no more tears would come out, she then looked at me with tears on her face.

As she looked at me with those eyes I sighed and then created a towel which I dropped in her face.

"You got it all out?"

"Um… Thank you… I feel better… Now that I've cried it out, can you keep this a secret Takayanagi-kun?" She said in a muffled tone.

Patting her head I responded.

"Yup~ It'll be our little secret Aya-chan~…"

"UmU…" was all she uttered as she stare into my eyes.

"So~ Can you tell me about your eye senpai~?"

"Hm? Do you mean babies? This here is the Sharingan, also known as the copy wheel and as the name dictates its main usage is to copy."

"Wow~ that's so cool, does that mean you have dragonic powers like me?"

"Hehe, no I am not Aya-chan I am by no means related to any of the dragonic powers you or the rest of the world possess"

"Then…how?" she tilted her head as she asked that question.

"Well let's just say as someone who is outside the wheel of fate I'm quite the special case."

"Wheel of fate? What is that?"

"We can talk more about that later Aya-chan, I can sense your sister coming our way, I'll dry our clothing then we'll talk with your sister."

I watched as she suddenly stood up getting ready to get away from her sister. Grabbing her by the back of her uniform I held her in a place like how you hold a cat by the scruff of their necks.

"At least wait before I dry you off," I said to her as I wielded moisture out of our uniform and blew hot air effectively drying us. I then let her go as she proceeds to jump down from the rooftop down to the bottom of the building using the railings on each floor, whilst waving me goodbye.

Waving back at her, I smiled as she finally looked like she got her smile back. Just after that the door to the rooftop suddenly flung open to reveal Maya-san.

"Takayanagi is Aya here?!" she asked me aggressively. I then pointed at Aya-chans back as she kept running away from her big sister.

"AYA! Give me that Katana back this instant!" yelled Maya-san. Aya then replies by sticking her tongue out.

"Bleh"

Much to my amusement and frustration on Maya-sans end.

I watched as Maya-san sighed in frustration as she used the stairs to chase after Aya-chan.

----

I watched as the whole thing turned into a whole mess. My brother arrived in an escort of cars as he berated Maya-san how it was her responsibility to take care of the Katana.

'Heh~ I guess that Katana has more value to it than I thought~ Fun~ Fun~'

Getting bored of watching the chaos that continued to ensue, I then jumped straight down the building and landed without a sound made. I walked out of school while not minding all the stampedes the enforcement club was making. I headed straight toward the place where I shed my mortal form. There I made my own place as I remember living by myself this whole time in that run-down apartment.

While I was taking a nap I sent a Clone of mine to start building a house.

Deciding to enjoy nature more I transferred all my things to the lake where I was reborn. There I made a little hideout of sorts as I used one of the truth seeker orbs to conceal my place. I headed towards the market planning on continuing my newfound habit of cooking, I bought enough meat that could feed a family of ten.

Making my way toward my place I noticed a presence following me. Turning around I gestured for them to come forward. Of course, I know who it was but for pretence's sake, I still waved at them.

"What are you doing here Aya-chan? Maya-san and the rest are looking for you, you know~" She then asks something in a quiet voice.

"Um… Could I ask for a favour senpai?"

"Hm~?, What is it Aya-chan?"

"Could I stay at your place tonight?... I don't want to go home right now… please?"

She stared at me with those puppy eyes only for me to reply with a.

"Nah~ I don't feel like it" which seemed to surprise her, by the look on her face.

"But… Why not?!" She ask me as she pouted.

Poking her cheeks which further annoyed her, gestured by trying to bite my fingers.

"Hehe~ I'm kidding… That was for telling me my martial arts were crappy last time when I was beating up your precious Souichirou-sama" I teased her.

"That!... I'm sorry…" she apologized ashed of what she's said before.

Giving her head a pat, I continued walking as she kept walking beside me.

"And now we're even~" I replied to her nonchalantly.

"You've changed Senpai…"

"Hm? What do you mean, I'm still the same me aren't I?"

"Um… No, I mean you have this aura around you, one that's matured…"

"Ah that, well let's just say I've gained enlightenment the night we fought the enforcement group, and I've changed for the better."

"Um…" Was all she said as we maintained silence, while I lead her toward my home.

We enjoyed the silence until I stepped off the road and headed to one of the trails leading away from society. It was there that our conversation started as Aya-chan addressed the elephant in the room.

"So, where are we going exactly senpai?"

"Home" I replied to her.

"Home? But why is it so far away? Are you some sort of hermit or something?"

"Well, you could say that Aya-chan, it was part of the enlightenment I received that night."

"Pfftt~ Ahaha~ you've suddenly become more interesting Takayanagi-senpai~"

"Oh?~ is that a good thing you reckon?"

"Humu… I would say so."

"Well, that's a good thing then" after that we reached the lake where I took a deep breath and uttered.

"Home"

"Home? Where senpai? You mean you just live in nature?" Interrupted the curious girl.

"AH~ my bad I guess you can't see it huh, here how about now?" Wielding the truth seeker ball to allow Aya-chan to see my house, a tree house to be exact she exclaimed in excitement as she ran up the stairs leading to the house itself.

"Wow~! This is so cool senpai! How did you make his house? And how come I couldn't see it before?"

Forgetting the fact that we were still but 15 to 16 years old I smiled as I told her.

"Magic that's how~"

"Hmph…Keep it all to yourself then," she replied while pouting once again.

'Actually, it was the usage of the wood style, but she wouldn't know what it is anyways unless I show her.' I mussed to myself.

Opening the door I let the curious squirrel come in the house as she looked around my home with sparkling eyes.

"You know you're richer than me right? Why are you so excited over some wooden furniture?" I asked her curious why she was acting this way.

"Well, you see this is the first time I've been to a man's place…alone…" She replied while the last part was uttered so quietly I wouldn't have heard it If I wasn't superhuman.

"Well, I guess I'll need to be a good host then? Is curry alright with you?" I asked her as I headed towards the kitchen.

"Yes, I mean let me help! Senpai!" I then just waved at her.

"Just be good okay? Just stay here and relax, or if you feel bored feel free to go to the balcony the view there is the best." I told her as I get ready to prepare a meal for us to eat.

Taking off my coat, I placed it to the side as I folded the edge of my uniform to my elbow. Grabbing hold of the knife and the ingredients my eyes turned serious as my eyes turned red.

'Sharingan'

And so I began cooking.

---PoV Change Aya Natsume---

Watching Takayanigi-san leave for the kitchen I couldn't help but feel alone. Choosing to listen to follow his advice I walked over to the balcony to see the perfect view of the moon reflecting from the lake. Appreciating the view, I fell into a trance as I felt all my worries wash away as I basked in mother natures beauty. Only waking up from it when I heard Takayanigi-san call my name.

"Aya-Chan~ Dinner's ready"

"Hai~ Coming~"

This time I walked with a skip toward the kitchen forgetting all those hurt feelings that were shackling me down.

---PoV End---

"Mhmm~... Ah~... So~ gooood~ hot~...Mhmm~"

"Ano~ Aya-chan? Could you please tone it down?" I sweatdrop as I heard the noises she was making.

"But…ah~... its' so good~ Senpai~"

"..."

Not bothering to correct her anymore I just let her finish the meal in front of her as I gave myself a pat on the back for cooking such a wonderful meal.

'The Sharingan sure is helpful, eh?'

Then as I eat away the food in front of me while being accompanied by the sound of food pleasure.

--------------

As we finished our meal I couldn't help but smirk at the tomato-faced girl, as she refuse to look at me. Not wanting to be embarrassed any further she stood up.

"Um… Senpai, do you mind if I take a shower?"

"Hm? A shower? Well, I would say yes, but I don't have a shower in my place."

"Eh? Then… What do you use then?"

I then pointed at the lake.

"That"

"Eh? Ehhhh?"

"Well if you want to bathe to freshen up I can make you an onsen. Do you want to?"

"You have an onsen here?!"

"Well, not yet but I can make one, wait here I'll finish washing the dishes."

"Make one!? Show me senpai! Ah! Let me help you with the dishes then."

When she said those words she headed towards the kitchen sink as I followed along.

---15 minutes later---

Now we are standing in front of a clearing where I'm planning on making an onsen.

"So… How are you planning in building the onsen Takayanagi-san?"

I then smiled at her and showed her my 'magic'.

I then summoned my Zanpakuto and then tapped the ground. I looked at the flabbergasted Aya, hanging her jaw wide open as she watched the earth move, not even noticing the cane that appeared in my hand.

Nature seemed to move as commanded them to form a circular pool, rocks seemed to pop up like flowers around the onsen, and clear warm water started filling up the whole. Around it, the ground seemed to shift as the dirt hardened into a suitable ground for an onsen. Then fences made of trees surrounded us, which bloomed into sakura blossoms.

Admiring my work I gave myself a pat on the back as I headed out of the onsen, leaving the still-stunned Aya standing there by herself. She only snapped when I talked to her when I was already out of the onsen.

"There you go Aya-chan, take your time I'll be up on the balcony if you ever need me."

I didn't hear a reply so I just kept walking toward my house.

---

Was I disappointed I didn't receive an invite to join her? Every sane man would say yes, and I am part of those sane people. But I learned an important lesson from Bang-jiji. According to his word.

'Masa… Do you know what is more satisfying than having you conquer a woman by yourself. It's letting the woman come and offer themselves to you.'

So while I am disappointed that I wasn't invited I also do not care that much.

I then stared at the full moon as I sighed to myself how easy it is to give everyone a happy ending. Waking up from the thought process I couldn't help but be curious about something.

'I don't believe that the supernatural we know of are these'

I stood over the balcony railings as I kept my eye on the moon. Transforming my eyes into the Rinnegan I stared at the moving energies. Not finding anything interesting I transformed my eyes again to what they were when I first hatch out of the cocoon. My Rinnegan changed earning its Burning tomoe and changing from purple to orange. It was then I saw a different energy hidden. A blue colour, seemingly free-flowing, then comes Chi slightly hovering below it in its colour changing quite often representing the elements. Above the blue colour were two colours seemingly clashing, A black and white energy. the black energy felt quite demonic while the white energy felt holy.

As I kept looking my sights bypassed the energies as I stared into what looked like the void or a rift. There I saw the concepts, life, death, samsara, infinity, dreams, and many more. I stared fascinated at the new world before I noticed something big, and red floating there.

'Is that… A dragon?'

There in all, its glory a dragon bigger than anything I've ever seen.

'Not like I've seen one before

Floating into the void. Seemingly able to notice my prying eyes the dragon turned its massive head towards me as I gave it a wave and from the way the dragon trembled it seemed flabbergasted that someone was casually waving at him. Deactivating my eyes I couldn't help but tremble in excitement. As the previous fire that once was about to extinguish burned. The excitement for a seemingly new world of supernatural. One that I might be able to use the techniques my four grandfathers taught me.

My train of thought was interrupted by the sound of footsteps behind me.

"Hm? Are you done with the onsen Aya-chan?"

I turned around only to see a wet Aya-chan back in her school uniform revealing all the curves a 15-year-old shouldn't have I facepalmed myself. My eyes changed to the Sharingan, a gentleman(cultured man) who always appreciates nice views.

"Um…Towel…"

"Ah~ Sorry Aya-chan I forgot to leave towels."

Quickly creating towels for her to wipe down I gave them to her as I usher her to my room to change. Whilst turning my eyes back to their normal self.

'One for the gallery get~'

"Sorry about that Aya-chan, You can use my shirt there as a change of clothes if you don't have a spare."

I told her definitely not forgetting that I could've just dried her as I did back at the school.

As I sat down in the living room I went back to mussing on my findings today.

'A new and stronger supernatural world huh… Now I won't be so bored anymore

Even though I haven't seen a big red dragon for that long I knew that It was strong. How strong? I didn't know yet.

Snapping back to reality, I heard my bedroom door open as Aya-chan in a big oversized t-shirt. She then sat down opposite where I was sitting.

"So can we continue on our topic a while back?"

"Hm? You mean the wheel of fate?"

"Humu"

"So what do you want to learn about it?"

"Um… First could you tell me what it is?"

"Hmm… Let's first start with regular fate-"

"Regular?"

"-Yes, Regular fate. People like you are under that. The string of fate is one that falls under a powerful concept. People that are like you and the rest of the people are under it. A person whose future has been weaved the string of fate." I stopped as I notice that Aya-chan wanted to ask something.

"Does that mean, all the action that I've done isn't of my own free will?"

"Now~ Now~ in a mortal sense you still have your free will, as you make your choices the tread of fate will weave it till one day you end up at your designated fate. That's why people call it fate."

"Then what about you Takayanagi-san?" she asked in s serious voice.

"Well for me, I fall under the Special category, I am a being that can forcefully alter fate, I can tug my own string to follow my will and I can weave it to my liking if I so desire. A being outside the wheel of fate. Last but not least the Irregular category, a being that is blessed by luck lots of it, to the point lady luck pretty much spreads her leg open." I ended my explanation as I give a silent thanks to grandfather Hagoromo and Yamamoto for giving me this lesson.

"How do I reach the level that you are at so I could control my own fate?"

I then pointed at her eyes.

"Well, the first step of it would be controlling your eyes. If you don't even know how to control and use your powers properly how do you expect to reach the level that I am at? Or…"

"Or?"

"Or I could forcefully cut you off from the wheel."

I told her surprising her by the look on her face.

"You can do that?!"

"Hm~ Though it won't come with setbacks, for example, your sweetheart Nagi, your feelings might change for him or with the sword you took from your sister, you might become incompatible with it. The law of give and take, if you so decide to go through it, you will lose something while gaining something."

I looked at her as I stood up and gave her the time she needed to digest what I just said. Just as I reached the balcony I heard her voice.

---PoV Aya Natsume---

'To gain something I must first lose something… I don't think I'll be losing anything important though. My love for Souchirou-sama was nothing but fate weaving its tread, and the sword that my brother left me doesn't seem so important, now that I found someone that could potentially teach me how to use my eyes.'

Seemingly getting to a proper conclusion. I stood up with resolve in my eyes as I voiced out my feelings.

"I'll do it… I want to see what it's like to be outside the wheel, I want to experience the freedom of knowing I am making my own future! Please Takayanagi-san"

I bowed my head as my whole body seemed to tremble from what I just said.

---PoV End---

"I'll do it… I want to see what it's like to be outside the wheel, I want to experience the freedom of knowing I am making my own future! Please Takayanagi-san"

When I heard those words come out of her mouth, I couldn't help but have a smile on my face, like a proud parent.

"Very well, from hence fort, you will now be outside the wheel of fate. Now raise your head Aya Natsume!"

When she looked up from her bowing position, I then summoned my Zanpakuto. I then taped her forehead severing the thread that connects her to the wheel, she then collapsed but before she could hit the floor I caught her, placing her down on the bed in my room. I headed outside to talk to a guest that's been lingering around for a while.

"So… I've done it. Can you finally rest in peace? Shin-san."

I looked at the lingering spirit that was attached to the sword she brought. He's been bugging me this whole time, to help Aya-chan and to show her the proper way. So while I was standing beside Aya-chan in the rain I was conversing with the spirit of Shin-san.

"Hm~ With this I can finally rest… Thank you Masataka Takayanagi, I hope that I could still fix the mistakes that I have made, but with you here I know I can leave this world in peace. Tell Aya and Maya that I love them, and tell your brother to finally forgive himself."

"I will, Shin-san. It's time for you to rest you've lingered here long enough."

"Hm~ Goodbye~"

With that as his parting words, I taped his forehead with the end of my cane effectively transferring his soul to a better place.

I watched his body slowly dissipate, A few seconds later he was gone. Deciding to finally take a rest I walked towards the sofa, placed the sleeping mask to my face and fell asleep.

'Too many things happened today… what…a..d..ra..g..zzzzZZZZZ'
