The days leading into Golden Week had been surprisingly calm. For the first time in a long while, Haru found himself living what could qualify for normalcy. Admittedly, having a Servant and having two girls in his house, one of which being a nun, was very odd. His parents were none the wiser, and even approved of the whole thing. Rias and Sona hadn't been antagonistic, thankfully, and he had yet to encounter a Servant that wanted his head on a pike.
One thing had changed, though. And that was his life at school.
"Everyone, these will be our newest transfer students. Please, treat them warmly."
Asia, clad in a Kuoh Academy uniform, bowed deeply and shyly. "Um, m-my name is Asia Argento! I only recently moved here from Italy, so-so please be patient with me!"
Altera, still clad in her street attire, merely gave a quick nod of acknowledgement. "I am Altera. A pleasure." she said in her deadpan and monotone voice that she normally used when out in public.
The sight of a foreigner in their class was bizarre enough, but a girl who looked stunning but chose to wear casual clothes? Suffice to say, it earned quite a few looks. Haru sighed and dropped his head onto his desk. "How did this happen...?"
Two Days Ago…
Sona stared blankly at Haru, who was on all fours with his head planted on the floor. The sight earned a few snickers from the Student Council, as well as amusement. "Would you mind repeating that for me, Namikaze-kun?"
"Sorry, Kaichou!" Haru bellowed, head still pressed against the hardwood floor. "Please enroll Asia-chan here! I beg of you!"
"... Can you please explain why I should allow her enrollment?" Sona asked him. She couldn't just do so without a good reason. That, and she had every right to be wary. Even if the Holy Grail War was on hold and the circumstances still under investigation—now even more so with the appearance of a second Servant underneath the Rider Class—she still treated them as potential threats. She honestly held nothing against the girl. In fact, she had her condolences for being subjected to such horrific events, such as the debacle that was the first ever battle in the war.
Hearing how Namikaze Haru, Saber's master, was asking her to enroll the Second Rider's Master, was enough to make her conscious. Part of her wanted to believe that this was some sort of ruse, but then she remembered that it was a member of the Perverted Trio that was prostrating himself before her.
"I just..." Haru began. "I just want Asia-chan to have some kind of normal life! I know she's supposed to be your enemy and all, but please Kaichou! I'll do anything!"
That seemed to spark some interest in her. "Anything?" The Student Council then leaned in, now curious.
"Anything!"
"Alright." She leaned back in her seat and folded her arms. "I will enroll Asia Argento, but I have a few conditions. First, you will be helping the other members of the Student Council in their tasks for a full month. No ifs, and's or buts. Secondly, you will take your academics seriously. If you fail so much as a single class, I will personally ensure that you will not graduate Kuoh Academy." She then adjusted her glasses, creating a glare. "Thirdly, cease any and all perverted activities."
"WHAT?!" Haru yelped as he stood in shock. ALL activities?! No peeping?! No oogling?! Nothing?!
"Those are my terms." She stated with finality. "We have received many… many complaints from students regarding your activities. Since you are willing to do anything, I thought it would be a good chance to get you to finally cease such debauchery."
Haru opened his mouth to protest, but Sona's piercing glare made him shrivel on the spot. "If you can't accept these conditions, I will refuse Argento-san's enrollment here."
The Iron Queen of Kuoh, indeed. Shitori Souna, or rather Sona Sitri, was a truly terrifying woman. Haru gulped and nodded slowly, condemning himself to a path of virtue for once. If this was the price to pay for Asia to have a shot at a normal life, then so be it.
Asia's enrollment was a shock for her, but it was indeed a welcome one. Hell, even Second Rider approved and gave Haru a thumbs up. It was made all the more sweeter when Asia thanked him and hugged him. Moe to the max.
Altera's enrollment... Okay, well that was more on demanding grounds than anything else. Why Sona agreed, he honestly had no idea, much less how in the world the strict Student Council President allowed for her to wear her street clothes. Then again, the idea of others seeing her in her usual attire, that beautiful exposing, white bridal-like garb, made him somewhat incensed.
Aaaand now he was starting to feel possessive. Altera was a beauty. A goddess in his eyes. But she wasn't his girlfriend. She was his Servant. Albeit a very scary one when angered. And cute when she wanted to be.
"Holy shit, dude." Motohama muttered, his glasses drooping slightly. "Two foreign beauties in our class... And one of them's a total babe! Oooh, look at that slender frame! Altera-chan might be Great Lady material!"
You're damn fucking right she is. Haru agreed whole-heartedly. Then he noticed Matsuda staring at Asia with a familiar expression. Oddly, he felt pissed that his friend was looking at Asia that way. Was this how it felt to be a "brother figure" as Second Rider called him? Either way, he resolved himself that he will not let Asia hang out with either of them. Especially not… her… He will protect Asia's virtue.
Actually, now that he thought about it, where in the hell was Kiryuu Aika? Usually by now she'd be all over...
… Oh. Wait. She was drooling over Altera. Quite literally. Her cheeks were flushed, glasses fogged up, and her nose was bleeding. "Holy fuck." she cursed, breathing heavy. "She's out of this world. I usually look at boys, but damn. Maybe it's time to swing the other way."
That horrified the redhead. Aika, going lesby? Possibly going after Asia?
Maybe it would've been better if I had let Raynare kill me and come back as a Devil under Gremory-senpai. Haru lamented as he rested his head against his desk, wondering what in the hell was wrong with his life. At least then, I probably wouldn't have had to deal with this shit.
Elsewhere, in a suspiciously similar world, another Namikaze Haru found himself sneezing violently, causing a naked Rias Gremory next to him to stir from her sleep.
