《Chapter 9 : Love is Love》

Tenshi's POV

The next day after announcements. 

We were in our team's training room. Everyone was silent until...

"Well well well! I guess everyone in our team are representatives" Kakusareta said
"A-ah! I'm very sorry!" Mikasa said, very apologetic
"It's not your fault!" Kagaku told Mikasa, trying to comfort her
"B-but everyone in this team is a representative... I don't belong here. Y-you should take Aika in w-with you! I c-can back out" Mikasa said, very sincere
"She has a good idea" Owari being the bitch she is agreed to what Mikasa said

Mikasa looked sad when Owari agreed. I think we can all agree that Owari is someone to hate. She keeps on saying what she wants, even though she knows it could hurt someone.

"Shhh. Shut it Owari" Ki told Owari, sounding mad
"Tch... just suggesting" Owari answered
"It doesn't really matter anyways, I think 'Aika' isn't here in the academy anyways" Kakusareta said

Well obviously, she left me. Why would she be here?

"Besides, we have to focus on something else since the whole Academy has its eyes on us" Kakusareta said
"and what is that?" I asked 
"Tournament week is coming, we have to be prepared, we don't know who we're going to fight until its our turn to battle" Kakusareta answered
"It's tournament week so soon?" Ki asked
"This event will help us a-lot. We will actually be trained with people we don't know just like in a real battle field" Kakusareta said
"So are we gonna train?" Ishi asked
"Mhm! I think so... rightttt?" Kasshoku answered
"Of course we are" Kagaku said
"We'll be teaming by 3 since today, we are finally complete" Kakusareta said

Please be actually a good team. Anyone but Owari. Please

"Team 1 is Ki, Kasshoku, and Tenshi
Team 2 is Owari, Kagaku, and Mikasa then lastly
Team 3 is Me, Ishi, and Aito" Kakusareta announced

Before we trained, someone entered our training room... A-aito's dad?

"I don't really have a reason to be here but I was told to give you this letter" Kusaragi said
"Oh! Good morning Sir!" Kakusareta said while bowing
"No need for greetings, just take it. I'm busy" he told Kakusareta
"Sorry Sir!" Kakusareta said while she took the letter

After that, Kusaragi just left. I looked at Aito, he gave me that "Idk" gesture. Maybe his dad was always like this. A workaholic eh? 
Kakusareta opens the letter and reads it out loud, this is what she said...

"Greetings to your team! This letter is to inform you that there will be a tournament that will take place on the abandoned tournamet, used to be used by the humans. We have emergency protocols if an ambush takes place so this event will be safe. This tournament is not only to train your teamwork and skills. It also allows us, the leaders of each races, to choose who will partake in the great war. You can back out if you are not willing to battle, for more details, please talk to Sir Kusaragi. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, the race Leaders."

"Wait wait... the Sakerarenai's already announced the 2nd war?!?" I asked
"I heard there was a Sakerarenai who just randomly appeared in Kusaragi's office and gave a letter that declares war. I dunno tho, maybe a rumor, maybe not" Kagaku said
"K-keichiro? I-isn't that the person w-who-" Mikasa said, but interrupted by Owari
"Who started the first war and killed millions of people? He was also the one nicknames the 'Shinigami'?"

(Shinigami translates to God of Death in Japanese)

"You're really interested with Sakerarenai's ah?" Ishi asked
"I just happen to know about it" Owari answered
"Anyways, lets stop talking about that 'Keichiro'. Lets start traini-" Kakusareta said but was interrupted by Kasshoku
"A-ACTUALLY! M-me and my sister wanted to t-tell something..." 
"Which is?" Kakusareta asked, rushing them
"W-well... if we're gonna stay with you guys the whole time of this w-war. Me and my brother thought that we should just tell you guys right away about it than get uncomfortable..." Ki said
"Go straight to the point already" Kakusareta answered
"Me and Kasshoku are in a relationship!" Ki said, embarrassed 
"We know your'e twins! Now lets get to traini-" Kakusareta said, rushing it, but still got interrupted by Kasshoku
"N-not that way! W-we mean-" Kasshoku said, embarrassed as well, but also got interrupted by Ishi
"INCEST?!?!?" 
"Yes" both of the twins answered
"W-woah..." Ishi said while the others were surprised, and Owari being disgusted
"CAN WE JUST START ALREADY!!??!?!" Kakusareta shouted, everyone fell silent
"Y-YEAAHHH!" Kagaku shouted, trying to hype up the team

We started to go to our teams and started the training

Guide
Team 1 - Ki , Kasshoku , Tenshi
Team 2 - Owari , Kagaku-sha , Mikasa
Team 3 - Kakusareta, Ishi , Aito

Team 1 rushes to Team 2

"Hey Tenshi!" Ki called me
"Hm?" I asked
"You think you could beat Owari ? Me and Kasshoku will beat Kagaku-san and Mikasa?" Ki asked
"You sure?" I asked
"Sure! Me and Kasshoku has something special when teamed up!" Ki said, hyped
"Uhhh.. okay" I agreed to the plan

Kasshoku and Ki separates then attacks Kagaku-sha and Mikasa

"Seriously?" Owari said when she was surrounded by Ishi, Aito, and me

"Tsk... try me" Owari said but before she could even finish her sentence Tenshi and Aito already attacked Owari , Aito took Owari's umbrella spear and used it to choke her neck , Tenshi then broke the umbrella using her sytche while managing to throw Owari downwards too

While doing so, Ki & Kasshoku already beaten kagaku- sha and Mikasa along with team 3

"HA!" the twins shouted while giving each other high-fives
"W-WHAT!??????" I said, I was surprised. They were so fast!!!
"Told you we have something special when teamed up!" Ki said
"Doesn't work with Sakerarena-" Kasshoku said but interrupted by Ki's "SHHH!"

I wonder what it was... some technique spell that doesn't work against Sakerarenai's? Interesting.

"Team 1 wins!" Kakusareta announces
"T-that was fast a-and very unexpected!" Mikasa said
" I really didn't do much but congrats!" I congratulated the twins
"Tch. You only won because you teamed up. Can I go already?" Owari asked
"Yeah you may go! Training's done! Well done everyone" Kakusareta said

We all went to our rooms

"H-hey I was just curious..." Aito told me
"What is it?" I asked
"I don't know... it's just that... how would they reproduce if they're not on the same race? Isn't that impossible?" Aito asked
"Well maybe they don't want a kid" I answered
"but what's the purpose of staying with each other if you're not making a family either way?"
"Love."
"They're twins yet they love each other romantically"
"Well... they're not blood related since they're different races so I think it's okay"
"How'd you know that?"
"Like what you said. Only people from the same race can reproduce. Reproduction with a different race from your race is impossible, and the twins have different races"
"Ohhh..."
"Besides, its their life so let them decide what they want. Love is Love anyways"
"You're right... thanks!"
"No problem"

After that conversation, we slept

The Tournament is near.
