〈 The Why? The What? The Huh? 〉

How do you tell a well-structured story when life in this world is a chaotic calamity?

It's already the first day of school and our protagonist, Yūfukuna Seikyō, has already gotten himself involved in a situation he never asked to be apart of to begin with.

Let's start from when Yūfukuna was just minding his business in the infirmary, busy picking out items he could sell for some decent cash online. Just as Yūfukuna was in the middle of taking some of the medicines in the cupboards he broke open, he heard the door slam open.

Turning around he spots a guy with butt-cheeks for a chin and a piss yellow mohawk carrying a fish lipped bushy haired boy, and finally, some pink haired alien who seemed to be following the other two weirdos.

"Huh... what are you guys doin' here? Aren't ya supposed to be at the gym or somethin'?" Yūfukuna questions while he looked over at the new intruders.

"We could ask you the same thing." Saiki states, however, Yūfukuna didn't respond or react to his statement.

It's most likely that the ashen haired boy didn't hear the psychic, or just flat out ignored him. He could be beyond stupid like the butt-cheeks for a chin guy.

"Oh, hey there buddy! Do you know where the nurse is? This guy over here is dead." Said Nendou.

"Nope. No clue where she is." Yūfukuna answered as he looked in the bag he had, almost stuffed with all the medicines and medical equipment in the infirmary.

"Is she dead too? That's weird. I guess I'll have to do mouth-to-mouth myself." Said Nendou.

Unexpectedly, the unconscious Takahashi immediately pushes Nendou to the ground before rushing towards the sink for dear life.

"Would ya look at that, he's alive after all, and just when I was gonna rob him along with selling his organs." Yūfukuna muttered, disappointed.

'Well that's one way to respond to someone unconscious waking up.' Saiki comments in his mind.

"Dead or alive, doesn't matter, as long as I can nab some sweet cash off of 'em!" Yūfukuna adds with a smug smile.

'Just how desperate is this guy to be stealing money even from the dead?' Saiki questions as he looked over at the ashen haired boy.

"I don't need mouth-to-mouth you stupid idiot!" Takahashi yelled before proceeding to gargle, vomit, and drown his mouth clean with water.

"What the...? So you're fine after all?" Nendou asked, confused.

"I FAKED IT, YOU MORON!! You've seriously gotta be kidding me!! So fucking gross!! UeGh BleEcH!!" Takahashi screamed before drowning himself once again.

Yūfukuna ignored the others and tuned out the quarrel as he went on to borrow some more valuable stuff in the nurse's office. Just as he closed up his bag, Takahashi approaches him.

"Oi! Same goes for you! If you go around telling anyone I was pretending to be sick, I might also kill you." Takahashi threatened as he walked up to Yūfukuna and placed a hand on his shoulder.

Yūfukuna just glances over at Takahashi. Annoyed, the former slapped the fish lipped, bushy haired boy's hand off of his shoulder.

"Yeah whatever, now get of my way cause I don't care that much to even bother about ya." Yūfukuna says while heading for the exit; leaving an offended Takahashi.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I'm headin'-- GEHh! Matsuzuki!!" Yūfukuna shrieked when Matsuzuki suddenly appeared at the door.

"So Takahashi... did I just hear you say you faked it...?" Matsuzuki questions with a threatening glare.

Matsuzuki went straight to scolding all the teens before asking what was going on. Takahashi was quick to begin blaming everyone in the room, saying they're all in on it for forcing him to pretend to faint.

Before anyone could protest, Nendou spoke up.
"Hold it, teach...! The fainting was real! He's sick, he's got root sickness!" Nendou said, being very much serious as he held a stern gaze.

And of course, the teacher believed him - even listing off all the symptoms Takahashi just so happens to coincidentally have. Well with knowing all that, next thing you know is that the ambulance suddenly show up and immediately take Takahashi away on a stretcher.

Yūfukuna and Saiki are the only people now left in the room. The former looks over at latter, spotting them with a thermometer broken in half and set ablaze in one hand.

"Woah..." Spoke Nendou and Yūfukuna stared in shock.

Saiki frantically looks back and forth between Nendou and Yūfukuna.

"Don't tell me you got the sickness too!?" Nendou panicked and Saiki was taken away by the ambulance fairly quickly - leaving a confused Yūfukuna behind in the infirmary.

"Whatever that illness was, I hope I didn't get it." Yūfukuna uttered to himself as he got ready to leave.

Just as the boy got past the threshold of the door, a hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder and dragged him inside back into the infirmary with the door shutting.

"Hey!! What are ya-- oh... ya managed to escape pretty fast." Yūfukuna comments, feeling instantly uneasy at the intense stare Saiki was giving him.

Silence.

Saiki continued to intensely stare at Yūfukuna. "If this is about me takin' all the junk in the infirmary, I swear I'm doin' it for a really good cause."

'I can't get into his head...' Saiki notes.

"Heeey, can I go now? You're startin' to freak me out!" Yūfukuna spoke, but Saiki didn't pay any attention.

'He's probably just as stupid as Nendou... good grief, I'm worrying for nothing then.' Saiki concludes as he watches the other boy before casually walking out the room.

Yūfukuna wordlessly stood there, very much confused.

'I can't believe I ran into another idiot like Nendou, that's concerning. Hopefully we don't have to run into each other ever again.' Saiki thought to himself as he paid no attention to Yūfukuna calling out to him.

"Hold on! What was that for?! Hey! Get back 'er-- gEhH!" Yūfukuna cut himself off as Saiki suddenly turned his head around and stared down at him so intensely that it felt like Saiki could see through Yūfukuna's greedy soul.

"The hell is yer problem man?"

'I really can't get into his head, looks like I can't talk to him telepathically... strange...' Saiki muses, making a mental note to watch out for this guy.
