Re:Zero Rise of The Demon Lords

Subaru's Progress & Rem's feelings

Kajah: Subaru...hey Subaru wake up
Subaru: mmmmm...h-huh? Kajah? Isn't it early?
Kajah: yah and it's time to continue your training. Now get up get dressed and get ready cause today your gonna learn the yin armor.
Subaru: *sigh* right right I'm getting up.
Subaru gets dressed and follows Kajah outside to the back of the mansion.
Kajah: ALRIGHT!! You know the drill.
Subaru: wait no breakfast first?
Kajah: no that's later. This is first.
Subaru: o-ok...
Subaru begins his training as instructed by Kajah.
Kajah: that's it keep on focusing. You will get It eventually.
Subaru: Uhhhhhhh this is frustrating.
Kajah: oh I know heheheh
Subaru: your enjoying this aren't you.
Kajah: what? Me? No way. Why would you say that?
Subaru: *makes a funny face* hmmmmmmm.
After a while Ram,Rem,Emilia and all the kids come out to see what Subaru and Kajah are up to.
Kajah: oh hello girls. Hi kids.
Kids: HI KAJAH!!!
Ram: good morning you two.
Rem: we where wondering where you two where at.
Emilia: yah you two didn't come to eat with us this morning.
Subaru: s-sorry Emilia... Kajah kinda got me up extremely early...I haven't even eaten yet myself.
Emilia: what? Really?
Kajah: he will eat once his training is done. If he eats now it will mess with his body.
Ram: what do you mean?
Rem: wouldn't it be better if he had energy?
Kajah: this will help strengthen his body's stress levels when using the aura version of Yin Armor.
Emilia: I don't understand.
Kajah: on the battlefield if he has to use this version of the armor it will deplete his energy at two times the speed because he's getting two times the strength, speed, reaction,and defense.
Emilia: oh I see now?
Kajah: so by doing this for him now he will be use to the side effects from it after use.
Rem: what are the side effects?
Kajah: the side effects are not as severe as the full Yin Armor for him or Shadow armor if you wanna call it that. It's mostly hunger and fatigue. With dizziness. He won't be able to tell where he is for a little bit.
Ram: that doesn't sound bad at all really.
Subaru:*sarcastically* right it's not that bad.
Kajah: But.
Emilia: but?
Kajah: the aura armor version has massive limits. He can't do much for a long time. It's only able to last for 10 minutes tops.
Rem: why just 10?
Kajah: remember it's taking two times the amount of nutrients from his body at an insane speed. If he is using it for longer that 10 minuets and, not get anything to eat he could die from it.
Emilia: *gasp*
Kajah: The Shadow Knight only has recoil effects and can be used longer as long as the user can handle the side effects for longer that 30 minute duration. Course it's possible to break the limits depending on the condition.
Emilia: it sounds like a lot to understand and use probably.
Kajah: well once you learn it you gotta train and use it to learn what pain you have to get use to. Mine is my arms and upper torso. Subaru's could be something entirely different.
Ram: hmm I see.
Meanwhile Subaru is still training as Kajah is explaining and manages to get his hand covered in the aura.
Subaru: I...I...I DID IT!!!
Everyone: Huh?!
Subaru turns to show everyone.
Subaru: look look the Yin aura!
Kajah: NICE!! Your starting to get the hang of it. Let's stop for today and let your body rest.
Subaru: Huh? So soon?
Kajah: we can pick back up after you eat and wash up. Remember this drains your body a lot more.
Subaru: right! Thank you sensei!
Emilia: Sensei?
Kajah: it's something he decided to call me.
Ram: wow how proper Subaru.
Subaru:...
Kajah: right come on Subaru.
Emilia stays outside with the kids as Rem and Ram prepare the bath for Subaru.
Subaru: man this is soo cool. I can't wait to learn how to do full body Yin aura.
Ram: your bath is done Subaru.
Subaru: ah thank you very much Ram.
Ram: I'll put your clothes by the door ok.
Subaru: yes thank you.
Subaru goes into the bath and relaxes. However Kajah decided to join him secretly.
Subaru: ahhhhh~ soo relaxing.
Kajah: I know right.
Subaru: heh ya...wait...KAJAH!!!WH-WHEN DID YOU GET HERE!!??
Kajah: hmm not to long ago really.
Subaru: c-couldn't you have waited till I was done?!
Kajah: hmm nah didn't feel like waiting. Besides Ram said it was ok.
Subaru:(dam it Ram!)
Kajah: oh come on we're practically brothers heheh.
Subaru: I still wouldn't wash up with my brother.
Kajah: psh what are you afraid of eh?
Subaru: NOTHING!! *sigh* There's a thing called privacy you know.
Kajah: yah I know. Buuuut that wouldn't annoy you.
Subaru: wh-why you.
Kajah: oh don't worry just relax bud.
Subaru: hmph I guess I'll try.
[Meanwhile Ram and Rem are cleaning the mansion with Rez]
Rez: yah know maybe traveling isn't such a bad idea anymore.
Ram: what Rez?
Rez: errr I am happy to help you two out hehehe...heheh
Ram: oh great to hear that
Rez: (...dam it.)
Ram: Rem where should Rez clean next?
Rem:.....
Ram: Rem? Rem?
Rem: o-oh I'm sorry Ram. Uhh over here is good.
Ram: Rem you have been acting very strange lately. What wrong?
Rem: it's nothing really.
Ram: Rem I'm your sister. I know when something is wrong or on your mind. I just wish I asked more.
Rem:....I...*sigh* lately I have been thinking is all.
Ram: about what?
Rem:...my. It's nothing.
Ram: Rem please tell me.
Rem tries to avoid eye contact with her sister but she finally gives in and tell her what's been bothering her for so long.
Rem: my feelings for someone.
Ram: who? Are they close?
Rem: y-yes,but at the same time...I'm starting to grow feelings for Kajah and they keep growing. He's always busy so I highly doubt he has anytime for anyone else right now. I just don't understand why I have these feelings so much. Why? what am I suppose to feel. I just don't know what to do.
Rem gets upset and gets a little teary eyed from all the stress and feelings she's been holding in for so long.
Ram is a little surprised but gives Rem the best answer she can give for the situation.
Ram: Rem...I had no idea you were feeling this way. You should have told me sooner. All I can say is this. If you like them then choose the best answer for your self. You can try talking to the other person and Kajah is still unknown. Try getting to know Kajah a little more. You never know Rem he might be looking for someone to, but just need some help figuring that out.
Ram: wipes away the tears from Rem's eyes.
Rem: Huh? What do you mean?
Ram: I mean he might think you already like someone and he isn't trying to get to close because of that.
Rem: really?
Ram: Kajah is extremely nice so being nice to everyone is normal for him. However when it comes to loving someone he probably doesn't even understand how to feel for someone else because all he know is how to love those kids. Try to understand him you know?
Rem: y-yah I understand what you're saying.
Ram: good now let's continue with cleaning ok? Might help you think a little more.
Rem: y-yah.
Rem smiles at Ram and felt like a lot has been lifted off her chest.
Ram: come on Rez off to the next area.
Rez: y-yes mam. (Hmm interesting. I wonder...how would Kajah feel about all this?)
Rem: by the way Ram.
Ram: yes?
Rem: how long are you gonna be using Rez for?
Ram: oh Rez said for however long we need help. Isn't that right Rez?
Rez: *ngh* ye-yes.
Rem: oh? ok then.
Meanwhile Kajah and Subaru are done washing up and,Kajah is outside with Subaru giving him pointers.
Subaru: sooo trying to block everything with the yin armor will eventually make that part disappear?
Kajah: yes. If you keep getting hit in the same spot with the armor ,it will eventually dissipate from that area. However the rest of your body will have the aura still.
Subaru: I see so it's like the armor has health?
Kajah: yes exactly.
Emilia sees Subaru and Kajah sitting together ,so she decided to join them with the kids.
Emilia: it's nice to see you two relaxing out here instead of training.
Subaru: heh yah heheh
Toru: how long do you think uncle Subaru will take to learn the shadow armor?
Subaru: eh? Uncle?
Toru:.....sorry..
Subaru: no it's...ok heheh.
Kajah: heh well it depends on Subaru here. If he can use the Shadow aura armor well he might be able to handle the second faze.
Emilia: but...isn't that risky?
Kajah: yes but I think he can take it. Have faith Emilia.
Emilia: I know. I'm just worried is all.
Subaru: don't worry Emilia I can handle it.
Kajah: Oh also Subaru your gonna need a nice sound proof area if you do try to take some of my blood.
Subaru: Huh? Why?
Kajah: because you will be in a lot of pain as your body tries to adapt and or reject my blood.
Subaru. Is it...that bad?
Kajah: Oh yes very. Your body will feel like it's on fire constantly. It will feel like your constantly being stabbed over and over again with a heated sword.
Subaru and Emilia gets nervous and worried as Kajah explains more.
Kajah: eh...sorry about that everyone.
[Back with Rem,Ram and Rez.]
Rem: so how would I get Kajah alone to really talk to him?
Ram: hmmm I can help with that. I'll just have Kajah go into town to pick up some things here and there.
Rem: mhmm?
Ram: then I say "why not take someone along with you Kajah?"
Ram: he might say "no I think im ok alone" knowing him, but you say "I'll go with you Kajah you might not know what we need." And there you go all set. What do you think?
Rem: yah...I think that will work.
Rem smiles at Ram and seems really happy and excited about the idea.
Ram: I think tomorrow morning will be a good time don't you think?
Rem: yah. I can do that. Thank you soo much Ram.
Ram: of course. I am your sister after all right?
Rem: yah *giggles*
Rez: (wonder what those two are giggling about?)
Rem: continues to clean with a big smile on her face thinking about the idea Ram had.
Ram: (I'm glad she's smiling now...I would normally not even consider something like that but,she must have been dealing with this for a long time. I hope this works out for you Rem.)
