Anything But Ordinary

The Return Of Kamukura

I can't believe my eyes. Standing in front of me in all of their glory, is my sibling Izuru Kamukura themselves. Their ankle-length black hair is pulled back in a tight ponytail and his piercing red eyes are just as dark and intimidatingly as ever. They've additionally swapped out their usual 19th century attire for something a little more modern-probably just for the sake of blending in.

They let out a slight huff before glaring down at me. "You have yet to snap, I take it?"

I sigh. "Nice to see you too, Izuru."

Their nose twitches slightly before they frown. "You have humans over."

I narrow my eyes. "They're my friends, yes. And we were just about to go out so could you come back tomorrow? Or better yet I'll come to you."

"Going out?" They repeat.

"Yeah, um. . .It's my roommate's birthday so us and our friend were just going out for the evening."

"Considering how much you begged to come here, you should really spend your free time focusing on your studies, Hajime."

"I know, but-"

"Hajime, Chiaki was saying-" Nagito calls, running down the hall before instantly freezing in his tracks. I nervously glance at Nagito and then back at Izuru, who is staring him down with wide-eyes.

Nagito flinches and then immediately smiles. "Hello, I don't believe we've met before. Are you a friend of Hajime's?" He asks politely. Kamukura doesn't respond, leaving me no choice but to.

"Um, Nagito this is my sibling, Izuru Kamukura," I mumble, "Izuru, this is my roommate Nagito Komaeda."

Komaeda's smile drops as the realization dawns on him. ". . .Ah. Well, nice to meet you Mx. Kamukura! Hajime here has told me so much about you! I'd love to sit and chat with you over a cup of tea but we were just about to go out. . .ah, Chiaki!" He calls suddenly, "Are you ready?"

"Yes, just a moment!" Is the response.

"Yeah, he's right, okay, bye-bye Izuru!" I sing, trying to shove them out the door but they don't budge.

"Ah, unless Izuru wishes to accompany us. . ?" Komaeda offers.

I grit my teeth. Why'd he go and say that?!

"That is quite a generous offer, Nagito, but I would hate to intrude. Hajime, I'll be by here tomorrow at noon, we have much to discuss," They bow slightly, "Then, enjoy your evening. Good night."

With another huff, Izuru turns and stalks back down the hall.

I let out a huge sigh of relief, feeling a huge amount of tension I didn't even realize I was carrying roll off of my back. I let out a loud groan, smacking my head against the wall.

"Are you alright, Hajime?" Komaeda asks worriedly.

"What? Oh, yeah, fine, just wondering why the sudden visit from Izuru."

"I'll tell you my theory," Komaeda responds, holding up a finger, "It's been over a week without your supply and they wanted to see if you've gone feral yet," He grins, "Too bad for them I'm not going to allow that."

I sigh. "I know, and I'm grateful of course. Ugh, they're probably going to try and drag me back to the mansion. And I know I won't be able to stand up to them."

"I'll be here at the same time and can be your support, if you want." He offers.

"Support for what?" Chiaki asks, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.
