Some Backlash

Zenitsu and Kaigaku are 2 teenagers that had moved into the mountains after the passing of they're caretaker, Jigoro. They used to live in the cities, and they had to move because they could no longer afford the house that they were staying in. Kaigaku just so happen to have a job at that moment, and so unfortunately he had to quit and took all the money that they had left to afford a new, cheaper house. It was heard that houses in the mountains were much cheaper compared to cities, but that also meant The 2 brothers, Zenitsu being aged 16 while Kaigaku 18 had to move to another school. There weren't any known schools in the mountains, and the distance of where they currently live compared to the nearest school in the city will take them hours to arrive. But so they thought, Kaigaku just surprisingly managed to find a private school located near their home. Not only that, the school was also free for students without budget. He checked up with the headmistress of the school and were expected of arrival next week.


Kaigaku's pov

"Oi Zen, you ready for school tomorrow?" I asked my brother in the kitchen. "Mhm!" he hummed back. Damn, this kid still manages to keep himself upbeat even after sensei's death. We had some struggles the first few weeks after his passing, but now that we've got a house and a new school things should go smooth sailing. At least, I hope. New friends and socializing wasn't really Zenitsu's strong suit. I hope this new school can change that. He got used to the new house surprisingly fast, while I'm still trying to fit in with everything. Not that I'm too overwhelmed or anything. I walked out the kitchen to the living room where Zen was. "You got all your things ready? We're leaving at 6 tomorrow." I asked. "Yea, I know. And everything's ready. But what about lunch Kaiga-nii?" "There's food at school, don't worry." I replied.


Zenitsu's pov

"There's food at school, don't worry." I can't assure you that. Even be it a private school, I'm still anxious of what's to come. I usually don't like starting new things that requires me to socialize. (Mood) Anxiety better not budge in on my first day, or else I'm gonna die. Kaiga-nii said he'll make sure I'll be fine, but I wanna thrive by myself for once, at least try to make him proud. Ever since Gramp's passing I've been nothing but trouble to him. "Best you go to bed now Zen. It's getting late." Kaigaku told me. "Alright then. Goodnight Kaiga-nii." I said as I went upstairs to my room. Our new house wasn't all big, but spacious enough for us both. I laid on my bed and stared at the ceiling. 'I wonder what tomorrow'll be like' I thought as I drifted to sleep.

Timeskip to tomorrow, 6:30 a.m

"ZENITSU!" I heard a yell as I fell off my bed. "OW- Wha- huh?" I stuttered, confused. It was Kaigaku standing by the door already dressed. "C'mon Zen you don't wanna be late on your first day do you?" I heard him say. I looked at the clock on my table and saw that it was 6:30- Wait- 6:30?! Oh god how could I have overslept?? Kaigaku helped me up as I grabbed my uniform and rushed to the toilet. After getting ready I saw that my school bag and breakfast were on the kitchen table. "Grab your bag and food we're eating on the go." Kaigaku said as he opened the door. I did so and went out the door, closing it and then trailing after Kaigaku. "Sorry Kaiga-nii I overslept" I said, eating my toast while walking. "It's fine, school is just a few blocks up ahead" he replied. I looked around my view of where we were walking. This is the first time I've even been in a mountain area, the air was chilly outside with mud puddles here and there since it had rained yesterday. It was new experience, but I liked it. I just followed after Kaigaku since I had no idea where we were going, until I saw a building not too far ahead. Kaigaku then started running all of the sudden that made me confused as ever, so I just ran after him.


Kaigaku's pov

I could hear Zenitsu yelling at me to wait up as I chuckled. I ran ahead until I reached the entrance of a building, our new school. there was a sign board at the entrance, with huge words imprinted on it. 'Kimetsu Academy'  I read. A few seconds later Zenitsu had finally caught up with me panting. I laughed. "Y-you're the worst Kaiga-nii" he said while still trying to catch his breath. "Heheh, sure I am" I said teasingly. He pouted at me and then got up. "So is this the school?" Zenitsu asked me. "Yea it is. C'mon, let's go in." I replied. We then started walking towards the entrance thus officially stepping into the school. Zenitsu continued to trail behind me. In front of the entrance were doors, which I assume led into the school indoors. Though by the doors was a woman waiting by with some papers in her arms. She looked up and saw us, then proceeded to signal us towards her. We proceeded to do so and walk towards her. "Konnichiwa~ you two must be our new students, Kaigaku and Zenitsu?" she asked softly with a smile. "Yes, we are." I replied. "Ara, then it's pleasure to meet you both. I'm Kanae, this school's headmistress" she said still smiling. Headmistress? She's way nicer than what I expected. I felt a tug on my uniform as turned around to see Zenitsu looking down and gripping on my shirt. I smiled at him to reassure that everything was fine. "Well then, why don't you boys step inside and we'll settle the rest in my office, alright?" she said opening the big school doors while still smiling and remaining eye contact with us both.


Zenitsu's pov

I stepped inside the school while still gripping on Kaigaku's shirt. In all honesty, I'm surprised and kinda nervous that the HEADMISTRESS headed out to greet us own her own. I guess things are much different in private schools. We kept following Kanae-sama until we reached an office, which I presume was hers. She greeted us into her office as she later stepped inside and closed the door behind her. "So, Zenitsu here is 16 and you are 18, correct?~" she asked Kaigaku as she sat down in front of her desk. "Yes." Kaigaku replied firmly. "Ara, that's wonderful. I have your class and time tables right here~" she said as she handed me and Kaigaku 2 sheets of papers with a smile. I looked at my time table and it seems I got into class 1a (no not mha-) Kaigaku showed me his and he got class 2b. "I can bring you both to your classes right now if you'd like" Kanae-sama said still smiling (yes I love Kanae stfu) "Sure-" Kaigaku responded. And so we went out the office and followed Kanae-sama heading to my class first. We reached the class and Kanae-sama asked for permission to enter. Me and Kanae-sama went inside as Kaigaku waited outside. "Attention class 1a~" Kanae-sama said grabbing everyone's attention. "Today we have a new student! Why don't you tell them your name and age Zenitsu~" she said to me. I faced the class nervously. "Uh- My name's Zenitsu Agatsuma, and I'm 16" I said. "Everyone please treat him nicely, alright?~" the whole class nodded. "Well then, I'll be heading out now. Thank you Tamayo-sama for having me~" She said. I assume Tamayo-sama was the class teacher. "Not a problem at all Kanae" Tamayo-sama said calmly. Kanae-sama went out of the class with Kaigaku following behind her. "Well then Zenitsu we'll be delighted to have you in this class. You can take a seat beside Genya over there." Tamayo-sama said calmly. I turned around to see a student raising his hand so I assume that was Genya. I went over and sat down beside him. I took off my bag as Tamayo-sama started to introduce herself. I looked over at the the other people in my class. 'I don't think I'm ready'
