It's cold. So very cold.

It's dark too. I can't tell what's happening. I can just about see a light in the distance. I think it's above me.

Is that the moon?

My eyes sting, as I force them ajar. My breathing is rugged and difficult.

Huh?

I'm not breathing... I'm gasping for air!

I'm.. I'm underwater!!

I can't breathe!

I'm panicking, fluttering and flapping to no avail.

The massive force of water is pressing me down.

I try to swim. It's useless.
I try to move. It's useless

I can't budge. The water pressure is too much.
It's forcing me down...

How did I end up here?
Why do I deserve this?

I was just at home playing H-Games in my bedroom! My life's been ruined ever since I was sacrificed by my own class.

It's... It's not fair!!!

Class 1-D... Well I suppose those bastards are now in their second year.

My closest buds Kanji and Ken left me for dead.

It's because of him!

That good for nothing loser who hid behind Horikita all year. There is one man I must get revenge on.

Yes. That's it.

I promise you this.
When I awake. I will take my revenge.

Ayanokōji Kiyotaka. You will suffer...






"Yam..."

"-Auchi."

"Wa.. Up."

"He's n- -king..."

"Hmm. Try punc- -im."


*Thud.

"Who goes there!?" I shouted whilst sitting up.

To no suprise, I was alive. I, Haruki Yamauchi was perfectly fine after that water madness.

For some reason though - my cheek was in agony.

My surroundings were different to what I was expecting but it wasn't too drab.

"Yamauchi. I'm glad to see you sire." A rotund man shouted whilst standing over me.

I remember him. The man by many names: The professor, the doc, also known as...

Hideo Sotomura.

"Sotomura and... Ayanokō-."

Wait no. The guy infront of me is not that bastard. The npc before my eyes was none other than Soshi Miyamoto...

"Ahem. Miyamoto - my friend. What's going on?" I interrogated.

I need answers.

I have many questions riding the tip of my tongue.

Where are we?
What's going on?
Where's Ayanokōji?

These side characters will aid my vengeance.

Like the pawns they are, they will serve me until their usage expires.

"I'm not sure man. When I awoke, I was on this beach like you. I spotted the Doc and woke him up, then found you as we were strolling." Miyamoto claimed.
