It was the next day. I walked to school to see the bike that I stole returned at the entrance. When I entered, I saw a boxing match being held between that weird guy, and HOLY SHIT THAT'S A MASSIVE GLOVE!!! A WHOLE NEW MEANING TO FIST-- OH SHIT NEVER MIND THAT, RYUKO'S LOOKIN FIIIIIIIIIIINE. 

(A/n: Ahem.)

Oh, right... Anyways, when I started paying attention to the fight, she had already beaten the kid, and was posing dramatically, before falling on a knee, sweating. seeing this I quickly swept Ryuko off her feet.

Caleb: In Gear eye's words, "We'll have a leisurely chat another day, Satsuki Kiryuin!"

Spot on impression if I say so my self. I then run off with Ryuko in my arms.

Ryuko: I don't need help, ya bastard!

Caleb: Really? Cause from the looks of it, you need all the rest you can get. You're sweating like a pig, and you're blush is even bigger than when you were fighting!

Ryuko: Th-That's...!

Caleb: I mean, seriously, your so sticky!

Ryuko: O-Oi!

I see a tram ride, and get on it. I set her down and she leans on a pole against the the door of the ride.

Ryuko: Why'd you do that...?

Caleb: Well for one, you looked like you were about to pass out. Two, if you did pass out, I know those boy's would have pounced on you right away, so I would have taken you anyway. Three, I know you don't like being seen like that, so I thought you'd at least appreciate the thought. And four, well... You're important to me.

Ryuko: Huh?

Caleb: Well, yeah of course! You where the first person I met, when I came to this hell hole! And, on top of that, you're really cool! ...Hey do you have a fever? Your face is really red.

Ryuko: I-I'm fine!

Caleb: I'm not sure...

I go over and touch her forehead.

Caleb: You're burning up!

Ryuko: St-Stop!

I expected her to smack my hand away violently, but just simply held it away.

Ryuko: I-It's just the heat, alright!

Has... Has no one ever complemented her? Also, saying it's just the heat can mean a lot of things, especially if you're part animal. (NO OFFENSE!)

Caleb: A-Alright. But, um...  On top of everything for why I help you... It's cause I empathize with you, gear eyes. I know what you're going through, exactly. I don't have all the answers, but I at least want to be there for you. I've see others go insane for sometimes something exactly the same, or very similar. I just... I don't want that to happen to you.  You're a good person.

Ryuko: Um... Thanks... But, "gear eyes"?

Caleb: Well... that's cause your eye's look kinda like a gear you'd see on a machine. I thought the nickname is fitting, and kind of cute. I mean, I haven't seen a girl with pretty blue eye's like that before. I don't think any other eyes would match you anyways, and it's cool and unique!

Ryuko: Th... Thanks again... I'll pay you back somehow one day.

Caleb: 'Well thank god it isn't a Yang response! Also! If it was flirtatious, then I'd be mad at the author for making this segment based off a typical male insert.'

She then pass out, and I quickly caught her before she fell on the ground. For some reason, I have the feeling that I'll be doing this a lot. I see a group of kids, lookin like they about to pounce on Ryuko, but I also recognized them.

Caleb: Hey, are you a part of Mataro Mankanshoku's little gang?

The kids stop and looked at each other.

~Timeskip

I was currently Mako's house, taste testing her mom, Sukuyo's, cooking. It was surprisingly tasty. I guess I didn't mind what looked like worms too much after the sage training. *shiver* Never again. Me and Mako's mom heard yelling, and we went to check. I helped make some tea, so I could learn for the future how to make it without a tea packet.

Caleb: Ah, Ryuko! You're awake!

Ryuko: Did you carry me here?

Caleb: I also had some help patching you up.

Barazo: Oh no, it was mostly you! I could learn a thing or two from you!

Caleb: No, no...

Mako: Ah, Caleb! You should cook dinner!

Caleb: I'm THAT good guys... come on...

Ryuko: Wha...?

Mako: Well you see! Yesterday the boxing club president went ham on you, Caleb saved you! You remember right? And then, he wandered into the slums, remembering how the system works! He then decided he was hungry and got out a massive table and a grill, and starting flying around his kitchen! He was all like, SHOOOM! CHING! CHOP! SLICE! WA-POW! And he prepared a bunch of food! Guts ran away after smelling the scent, and I was all like, "Wow, that's smells good!" so I gathered up a bunch of people I knew, who were already heading towards the divine smell, and we all approached Caleb. He had apparently planned to eat that entire banquet himself! I didn't think he could! But after he started eating, we didn't know when he'd stop! It's like he has a black hole for a stomach! But he was kind enough to share with everyone, and even delivered some door to door! All by himself, around the entire slums! He even helped out here!  And it was all free of charge!

Ryuko: ... Um...?

Mako: Silly, Ryuko! I'm saying he fed everyone in the slums! And we found out his stomach is a black hole! And he's like the best cook besides my mom!

Caleb: Yeah...

I scratched the back of my head a bit. Wait, am I sensing that?

Caleb: ZA WARUDO!

Everything around me imitatively stops moving.

*pop*

~In the void 3rd person

(Y/N): *Yawn* You getting tired of going through the anime?

(Author: Might as well do a huge timeskip.)

*pop*

Caleb: NOT TODAY FUCKERS! I'D LIKE TO LIVE THIS ANIME PLEASE!

(Author: SHIT HE FOUND OUT!)

(Y/N): RUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!

Caleb watched as they ran into the nothingness.

Caleb: Time skipping bastards.

(A/n: I'm changing up this part if you've already read, because a time skip would be too big.)

Caleb: THANK YOU! Now back to the story!

(Author: as you desire, so it shall be)

*pop*

*pop*

I quickly went to the kitchen and prepared a little dinner, before heading back to the small table.

Caleb: TOKI WO TOMARE!

Everything resumes motion.

Caleb: QUICK QUESTION! Can I stay here, also where do I sleep?

Mako: Oh, you can sleep in my room, with me and Ryuko!

Ryuko: Wait, wha-- 

Mako: It's quite spacious cause of you!

Caleb: Got it. Also, since everyone is here. I swear to protect you all with my life. You've done for me more than you know.

Ryuko: Um--

I then pulled a stack of bowls of ramen form behind my back.

Caleb: Don't question it, just dig in!
