Kuoh seemed relatively unimportant in my eyes as I try to piece together my past. I left early to avoid Issei as I saw Rias in his room. While outside, people pay me no attention which is obvious. But it gets weirder in the academy. Walking through the corridors I notice people ignoring me as if I don't exist. The class barely notices me except for Rias and Akeno. During class, the teacher ignores me. At the end of Class Rias leads me to the ORC building and asks for me to sit on one of the couches. "So, Roxas do you know what we are." Rias says looking at me questionably. "No, I have no clue." I say honestly which makes Rias sigh. "Well, we are Devils and Ruby is a being known as a Fallen Angel."
At the mention of Ruby my body automatically tenses and I focus. "What does this have to do with her." I say seriously. "Well, I want you to help us eliminate he-" she gets interrupted by me drawing The Kingdom Key and pointing it at her. "Leave her alone" I say seriously. "Look, she's an enemy and I need to deal with her as she's trespassing. However if you join my peerage, I could let her stay." She says cockily.
Suddenly I get a headache and memories begin flooding my mind "in this world the supernatural exist. One such race is known as The Devils. You can't join them!" Shaking my head I look her dead in the eyes. "Sorry, but I ain't trading my soul for anything." I say firmly as rias looks at me. "Nothing at all; Money, Fame, Woman, Power. You could have it a-" I interrupt her again. "Nothing... Will make me fall to the darkness and sell out my friend." I say as I take a step back.
"I didn't want it to have to come to this, Kiba...Kill him." arias orders as Kiba rushes at me. "Hmph, too slow." I say and block with my Keyblade. "Your finished." I say as I back up and do a full force dash swing, knocking him across the room. "Who's next" I say as I get battle ready. Koneko comes to punch me but I dodge it and knock her into the air. I jump up and cut her a few times before spiking her into the ground. She gets up but she's definitely hurt. I do a horizontal slash and she gets blown back.
"Ara Ara, looks like it's my turn." Akeno says as she fires lightning at me. I block it and I remember that I also can do that. "Thanks for the reminder," I say and call down a Thundaga. It strikes her and I follow it up with a brutal combo. She now is part of the wall. "Anyone else." I say to Rias. Kiba gets up and calls to her. "President, that blade is made of light. We don't want to risk it." This makes Rias look at me in surprise. "Alright Roxas, we won't kill her but you will be held responsible for her actions. Do I make myself clear." She says sternly but I can't care. "Fine," I say and go to leave. "Who is he" I hear Koneko say which causes a random word to come to mind. "I'm a Nobody" I say and leave the room.
Walking to the gate I see Ruby stood there. "Hey Roxas, What took you so long." She says while hugging me. "Heh, Rias tried to make me help her kill you. I made sure they wouldn't try." I say as we walk towards the park. "It seems like we are drawn to this area. Seems weird right." She says as I nod. We sit o. A bench and she leans on my shoulder. "Hey Roxas, is that sword you summon your Sacred Gear?" She asks as I shake my head. "No, it's just something I've always known how to do." I say genuinely. Hmm, ok how about we wake up your Sacred Gear." She says as she brings me up.
"Ok, so I want you to picture the strongest person that you know. Then picture you are them." She says as I think of the strongest person I know. At first I think of myself as there isn't many other people that come to mind. Then, I brunette my age pops into my head, holding a Keyblade. Sora. Thinking of Sora I feel a power emanate from me. Opening my eyes shows 2 things. An multicolour orb floating in front of me and a necklace? The necklace has a weird cross symbol that looks familiar but I can't say where.
I grab both the necklaces and the orb and I feel power resonating from both. The orb is absorbed into me and the necklace attaches to my neck. "Huh, never seen that happen before. Maybe you have 1 or 2 Minor Sacred Gears." She says. I summon Kingdom Key and give it a swing. Nothing changed in terms of Keyblade so it has given me new abilities. "Ok, We'll find out together." I say and hold out a fist. She skips the fist and goes for a hug. I get shocked but begin to hug back, this lasts a good minute until we break off. "Together."
