At the start of April, with the start of the new school year, a younger Ryuuga, with his old short and brown dyed hair, stood by himself in front of the large gates that lead to Heiwa Academy, the high school he'd start attending instead of being homeschooled like he had first planned because a deal he made with someone able to make his dream of knowing the world come true with a snap of his fingers. The requirements were to go to a normal high school and play a famous card game, so that he'd one day beat that man in a fight and make his dream come true.

But he was nothing more than a socially awkward mess. He rarely talked to people, and when he did, he always rushed to end the conversation as fast as he could, not to mention his stuttering, his fidgeting, or how his heart beated faster than his breath out of fear for being there. People like him were what many would call a lost case, but meeting someone at that exact moment would change his life forever.

'This is my moment! Once I go through these gates, I will be closer to my dream! And nothing will stop it!' Ryuuga thought, putting on a smile of fake confidence he used to ignore his own weakness. He prepared to take a step forward, but froze on the spot. '...I can't do this... I'm not prepared for this... I-i can't, I-i'll just make it come true a-another way!' And as he looked away from the gates to leave, he saw a hand laying on his shoulder.

"You're a nervous wreck, ain't ya?" The black haired boy that had his arm around Ryuuga asked, smiling at him. 

"A-a-a... AH!" Ryuuga screamed, stumbling back and then slipping on his own feet, falling back onto the ground. Instead of getting up, he just crawled back and hid himself behind a trash can.

"Yeah, I can see how this will end up." The boy chuckled and sweatdropped. "You really aren't a peoples person, are you?" He asked, approaching the trash can. "I get it, and it's fair to be like that. New people, new school, new stuff. Besides, high school is like the nest where doumbasses spawn. Get ready for alot of gal types, jocks, nerds, e-girls, tsunderes, kuuderes, milfderes, all the deres except yanderes. Name's Hikaru Hata, I'm a newbie here too. I know people call you something, but I also know I can call you anytime." Hikaru said, extending his hand towards Ryuuga. "So what's your name?"

"R-ryu... Ryuuga Sawada..."

"Dragon fang salad? Alright then, MC-kun." Hikaru said. "Let's go."

Ryuuga and Hikaru walked alongside on another across the hallways of the second floor of Heiwa Academy, Hikaru carrying his bag over his shoulder with a large smile while Ryuuga carried a large box filled to the brim with unsigned paperwork on his arms. It was early March, with two weeks left before the school ended.

"Damn that Akira... He's jumping the gun to that university with a Vanguard course and leaving all his paperwork to me! I knew something was fishy when he asked me if I liked the couch..." Ryuuga sighed. 

"You got cucked harder than dudes into hardcore NTR, my guy." Hikaru snickered. 

"Shut up! What even is that thing?"
